1 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,639 Speaker 1: I always knew i'd come back home. It was inevitable. 2 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,040 Speaker 2: A lot has changed since I first came here eight 3 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:17,760 Speaker 2: years ago. The plan was always to build something special 4 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 2: from the ground up, and I always knew we'd be 5 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:30,479 Speaker 2: where we are today. Buffalo is so special to so 6 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 2: many people. We take pride in our city, our culture, 7 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 2: and our family. And being away made me realize some things, 8 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 2: see some things from an outside perspective, and I watched 9 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 2: all season on the edge of my seat, just like 10 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 2: all of you. I saw a team that was doubted 11 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 2: all all season come out and silence the critics. 12 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: They lost five of their eight caps. 13 00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 2: So y'all don't have hope, you don't have enough talent 14 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 2: who complete. 15 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 3: The line. 16 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: That's the best half of football that ever seen in 17 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: the Laft. 18 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 2: Like any great team, they faced adversity, fair pair, it's good, but. 19 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: They responded with resilience. 20 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 3: Kin tangles, touchdown. 21 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: Added some firepower looking for Cooper, and consistently reinvented the 22 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 2: winning ways. 23 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 3: Coldd went up and pulled it off the roof, takes 24 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 3: it in a pack sixs a way for Tyler pass. 25 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: Then came that defining moment. 26 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 3: And there it goes and shot the turn, the five, 27 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 3: the play of the air. 28 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: And had. 29 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: In seventeen proved why he's the MVP. 30 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 4: Pitched it back Tiland, Who's gonna go to the door. 31 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: This time of year is made for teams like this. 32 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 2: The playoffs mean everything because we played for something bigger 33 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 2: than us. 34 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 3: The team and the fans are won for. 35 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 2: This city, Hills Mafia and Rham. 36 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 5: Wow, this is about as big as a kiss. 37 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: That's why I came back.

I don't have a 115 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 3: big enough vego. I'm perfectly fine admitting that. But as 116 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 3: you know, our Friday shows are all about you, the 117 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 3: listeners and the callers, because it's an obl Friday fan mailbag. 118 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 3: Any question under the son about the bills, the league, 119 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 3: or what have you fired away at, Maddie and I 120 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: will do our best to give you a proper answer 121 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 3: on that. And you know, things are looking good right 122 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 3: now as far as the roster is concerned, Maddie, because 123 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 3: coach McDermott earlier today on WGR here in Buffalo did 124 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 3: kind of confirm that the injury list is going to 125 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 3: remain short. And we should tell you Bill's practice Updates 126 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,679 Speaker 3: presented by leecom your leak Herey College of Osteopathic Medicine. 127 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 3: But it looks like Brandon Codrington is going to be 128 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 3: the only guy that's going to appear on the injury report. 129 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 3: Knock on wood because they still got to finish. 130 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 6: Practice to Yeah, what a difference from last year. I mean, 131 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 6: last year this team entered the playoffs, they were looking 132 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 6: for players coming off the couch. Aj Klein was a 133 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 6: part of the playoff front. Last year did a fantastic 134 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 6: job for the team. But a very big difference if 135 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 6: you look at last year compared to this year. This 136 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 6: team is healthy entering the playoffs. And we've spoken about 137 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 6: it before, not just the fact that they're healthy, it's 138 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 6: the fact that I feel like they're mentally in a 139 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 6: good spot. Their mentals are fresh right now. Because you 140 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 6: got a team who locked up the AFC East early on, 141 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 6: and they weren't playing week seventeen week eighteen for the 142 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 6: Division four playoff spot. 143 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 7: They got to rest starters. So I think you go. 144 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 6: Into what is hopefully going to be a deep playoff 145 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 6: run feeling like we've got fresh legs and we've got 146 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 6: a fresh mindset. 147 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think that sometimes gets lost on the 148 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 3: part of fans. Fans, you know, they get injuries, they 149 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 3: understand that they know that football is still a brutal sport. 150 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 3: It's not a contact sport. It's a collision sport, but 151 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 3: the mental strain when you've got your foot to the 152 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 3: floor on the gas pedal like they were last year 153 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 3: when they were six and six after twelve games, knew 154 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 3: they had to win their last five to ensure a 155 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 3: playoff berth, maybe run down Miami for the division, which 156 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 3: all came to fruition. But your press and pushing and 157 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 3: straining the last five games of the regular season and 158 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 3: then the postseason starts where everything gets ratcheted up another 159 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 3: notch and demands more of you physically, more of you mentally. 160 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 3: It's just like, well, hold on a second, can I 161 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 3: get a break? And that wear and tear can impact 162 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 3: your performance in the most important games of the year 163 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 3: in the playoffs that is gone. This year, they do 164 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 3: not have that. And I know you've been around the 165 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 3: players a lot, have been around a few of them 166 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 3: through the course of the week. There just seems to 167 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 3: be this quiet confidence about the group this week, and 168 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 3: I think it's because of the position they put themselves 169 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 3: in exactly. 170 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 6: I think it all stems from our quarterback Josh Allen. 171 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 6: I think he's done a fantastic job taking his leadership 172 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 6: to the next level. And I think the way that 173 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 6: this team operates is all coming from how Alan exists 174 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 6: through every single day, the quiet confidence he brings to 175 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 6: the meeting rooms, to the practices, to interacting with the teammates. 176 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 6: And you've heard a lot of players speak about. 177 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 7: This all season long. 178 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 6: We go as Josh Allen goes, and I think you 179 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 6: see a team who's feeling very calm and confident heading 180 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 6: into the wild card round, and I feel like that 181 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 6: seeps into even our departments. We're on the business side. 182 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 6: We get to watch these guys every single day, and 183 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 6: last year you could feel the tenseness of man, we 184 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 6: gotta win every single game to make it. You feel 185 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 6: the exhaustion start to set in. And this year it's like, huh, 186 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 6: it's another week. 187 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 7: We're in the playoffs. Let's go. 188 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 3: And then you look at the Week eighteen game last 189 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 3: year against Miami. Yes, they finished the job. They walk 190 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 3: down Miami back three games back with five to play, 191 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 3: and they walk them down, win the division, steal the 192 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,199 Speaker 3: division really from the Miami Dolphins, and get the two 193 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 3: seed and send Miami out to play Kansas City as 194 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 3: the seven. But in that week eighteen game, they lose 195 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 3: Gabe Davis, Taylor Rapp, and Rasul Douglas and Tyrell dots 196 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,599 Speaker 3: All in that game. Then the next week in the 197 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,559 Speaker 3: wild card game, they lose Christian Benford and Terrell Bernard. 198 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 3: So now you're playing the Kansas City Chiefs, granted at 199 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 3: home in a divisional playoff, but you're missing five starters 200 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,559 Speaker 3: on defense and your number two receiver. You can't go 201 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 3: into a game that short ended against a team of 202 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 3: that caliber. So that is not the case. So, just 203 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 3: to reiterate, coach McDermott said earlier today on WGR here 204 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 3: in Buffalo, cornerback Brandon Codrington will be listed as questionable 205 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 3: for Sunday's game with his hamstring injury. We'll wait and 206 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 3: see what the Friday injury report reveals to us. In 207 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 3: terms of his practice participation. He went from non participant 208 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 3: Wednesday to limited participant yesterday. If he's going to be 209 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 3: listed his question, we'll probably still be limited, I would think, yeah, 210 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 3: but we'll see what the injury report says. He also 211 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 3: told his coach McDermott did that JaMarcus Ingram is back 212 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 3: with the team, so he'll be available for Sunday's game. 213 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 3: He was excused the past couple of days because he 214 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 3: and his significant other head of baby. So congrats to him. 215 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 3: That's great news, that's awesome. 216 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 6: They welcome baby number two into their family. The little 217 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 6: one that they already have is just so thank you. 218 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 6: They make a great family. So excited to see another 219 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,319 Speaker 6: one added to the Ingram bunch. 220 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 3: Got gotta talk to JaMarcus about timing these pregnancies a 221 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 3: little bit better. I mean, I'm just not for nothing. 222 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 3: I'm just gonna say, like my wife and I did 223 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 3: an excellent job of planning our kids' births in the offseason. 224 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 3: I mean, it can be done. So I'll try to 225 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 3: give JaMarcus a couple of pointers on that. 226 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 6: Hey, if you work in football, the weddings, Yeah, the 227 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 6: babies happen in the offseason. 228 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 3: I think they're shoot from March to June. 229 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 6: There's so many of us that share the same wedding 230 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 6: anniversary in the building. 231 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,439 Speaker 3: The only injury concern for the Broncos their backup corner 232 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 3: Damari Mathis, went from a limited participant Wednesday to a 233 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 3: non participant Thursday, so his status have been in doubt 234 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,719 Speaker 3: for Sunday's game. But for all intents and purposes, he's 235 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 3: a depth player. Their injury report is very clean as well, 236 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 3: despite having to play last week to make sure they 237 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 3: would win and get in. We should also go around 238 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 3: the NFL because the All Pro votes are in from 239 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 3: the Associated Press, and you might be surprised to hear 240 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 3: the Bills do not have a single player on the 241 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 3: first team All Pro list, and they have only one 242 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 3: on the second team All Pro list, that being Josh Allen. 243 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson got more votes than him for first Team 244 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 3: All Pro, so he's the first team All Pro quarterback 245 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 3: Josh Allen second team All Pro. The only other player 246 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 3: that came close was Dion Dawkins, who would They don't 247 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 3: have a third team All Pro, but if they did, 248 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 3: he would be third team left tackle for the All 249 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 3: Pro team as voted by the Associated Press. Christian Benford 250 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 3: got some votes, but he was way down the list. 251 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 3: For corners, Tarren Johnson got a vote for nickel corner, 252 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 3: and Reed Ferguson got a handful of votes for long snapping. 253 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 3: I'm just gonna say this, I think it's a great 254 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 3: thing that none of them got named. You want to 255 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 3: give him an extra dose of motivation. Tell him in 256 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 3: the locker room. Hey, guys, congrats for nothing. Nobody thought 257 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 3: you were worthy of first team All Pro. You know, 258 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 3: chew on. 259 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 7: That, but disrespect. 260 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 6: Oh my gosh, James Cook ties for the lead league 261 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 6: sixteen rushing touchdowns, eighteen scrimmage touchdowns. 262 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 7: Nope, not even one vote. 263 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 3: Didn't get a single one. 264 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 7: What are you talking about? 265 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, so, I think these guys are going to look 266 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 3: like they got shot out of a cannon. Meanwhile, the 267 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 3: Denver Broncos got three first team All pros, two second 268 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 3: team All Pros, and look, they've got a fantastic defense. 269 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 3: Nobody's going to debate that. And when your team leads 270 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 3: the league in sacks, you're going to get attention and 271 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 3: look deservedly so. But the ironic thing is they're leading 272 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 3: sack player. Nick Benito with thirteen and a half sacks, 273 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 3: made second team All Pro along with his line made 274 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 3: Zach Allen, the defensive tackle who I think has eight 275 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 3: and a half sacks on the season, first team All 276 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 3: Pro for Denver Marvin Mims as a return man, Quinn 277 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 3: Minors their guard on the offensive line and then their 278 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 3: top corner. Patrick's are tan which really isn't a surprise. 279 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 3: I would have guessed Sir Tan would be on that list, 280 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 3: and I might have even said Benito would have a 281 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 3: look at that. But when you have Miles Garrett with 282 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 3: fourteen sacks and a bunch of other guys that are 283 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 3: established veterans in this league, I mean TJ. Watt didn't 284 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 3: even get first team. I think he got second team 285 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 3: as well. So look, I'll be the first to say 286 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 3: it's a hard team to make, There's no question about it. 287 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 3: But I thought I thought the Bills would have a couple. 288 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 3: I mean, they got two Pro Bowlers, no first team 289 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 3: All pros. I'm a bit perplexed by that. And look, 290 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 3: we've said it all along, Nanny, the Bills as a 291 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 3: team roster top to bottom. Nobody's gonna argue and say no, no, 292 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 3: the Bills are one of the most talented teams in football. 293 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 3: Terms of pure talent, they are not, but I would 294 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 3: argue collection some greater than the parts. I think they 295 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 3: are one of the best teams in football, and that's 296 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 3: why I've thought all along that in the McDermott era, 297 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 3: I think this is the best team group just in 298 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 3: terms of the way they play off. One another function together, 299 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 3: no egos, no issues, They're just a tight, tight, tight 300 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 3: group that plays well together. And you have more talented teams. 301 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 3: People say the Philadelphia Eagles probably have the best roster 302 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 3: in the league. I think you can make a strong 303 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 3: argument for that because the talent just drips off that roster. 304 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 3: It's ridiculous. But are they the best team. I don't 305 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 3: know if they are. I think the Bills are really 306 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 3: strong in that category. 307 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 6: I mean, that's been the thing all year that everybody 308 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 6: eats mantra. 309 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 7: It's not a mantra. 310 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 6: Of hey, we've got a couple huge stars on this 311 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 6: offense that we want to tout and we want to 312 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 6: hold up. It's been we're all going to do it together, 313 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 6: and everybody's going to have a part. Don't need to 314 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 6: be somebody coming into the team who has one thousand 315 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 6: yard season. After one thousand yard season, we're going to 316 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 6: take We're going to take the guys that we believe 317 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 6: fit in here, and we're going to create an offense 318 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,959 Speaker 6: around you. And we've seen it all season long. Second 319 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 6: best offense in the league averaging over thirty points per 320 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 6: game is nothing to be upset about. And it's led 321 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 6: by a star in Josh Allen. 322 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. So that's the state of affairs for the All 323 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 3: Pro Team by the Associated Press. And in case you 324 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,479 Speaker 3: were wondering what the exact vote count was, Lamar got 325 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 3: one hundred and nine votes total, thirty first place votes 326 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 3: first team votes. Josh got seventy eight total votes eighteen 327 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 3: first team votes, so he was a distant second from 328 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 3: Lamar in the AP All Pro voting. In case you 329 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 3: hadn't heard, the NFL has moved Monday Nights Vikings and 330 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,360 Speaker 3: Rams wild Card game to Arizona. The wildfires in Los 331 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 3: Angeles have created a monumental problem with staging a game 332 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 3: in terms of logistics and obviously fan and player safety two. 333 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 3: So the game will be played in Glendale, Arizona, where 334 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 3: the Cardinals play their home games. And this isn't the 335 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 3: first time the Cardinals stadium has been utilized when a 336 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 3: team's home stadium has not been available out there on 337 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 3: the West Coast. Remember back during the twenty twenty COVID season, 338 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 3: San Francisco had to play a bunch of home games 339 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 3: in Arizona, including one against the Bills. So it's happened before. 340 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 3: So the Cardinals stadium kind of stepping up to the 341 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 3: plate here to host this game. And I looked it 342 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 3: up last night or I saw somebody on my Twitter 343 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 3: feed mention it. This is the first time that a 344 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 3: team slated to play a home playoff game did not 345 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 3: play in their own buildings since nineteen thirty six. And 346 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:43,679 Speaker 3: I can't remember the team for the life of me, 347 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 3: but they had to play somewhere else. It was a 348 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 3: long time ago, so it's been a minute. 349 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 7: It makes it makes total sense. 350 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 6: Ninety years almost, Yeah, it makes total sense. Why though, 351 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 6: la we continue to think about the people who lost 352 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 6: their homes, the area that has been completely destroyed, worried 353 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 6: by those fires, so many sad, sad sites with those 354 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 6: fires that have just taken so much. 355 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 7: Of that area. 356 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, everything's just kind of been shut down. I've got 357 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 3: a friend, she has her family out there, kids that 358 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 3: are still in grade school and they don't have school 359 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 3: until further notice because their school is seventy percent burned down. 360 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 3: So it's like where do you go from there? So, yeah, 361 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 3: there's a lot, there's a lot to sort through out there, 362 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 3: and just hope everybody can stay safe out there during 363 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 3: these terrible wildfires. I understand the winds have kind of 364 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 3: died down, so they've been able to get helicopters and 365 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 3: planes in the air to drop water on the fires. 366 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,640 Speaker 3: They weren't able to do that earlier this week because 367 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 3: the winds were eighty miles per hour too dangerous to fly. 368 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 3: So hopefully the firefighters are getting on top of that, 369 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 3: getting a handle on it and getting it contained. The 370 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 3: NFL also announced today that the New York Jets, Cleveland Browns, 371 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 3: and Jacksonville Jaguars will all be playing home games in 372 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 3: London next season. Now here's something to keep in mind. 373 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 3: The Bills next season have road games obviously against the 374 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 3: Jets being a division opponent, and the Browns, so they're 375 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 3: in the pool. 376 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 7: So you're saying there's a chance. 377 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 3: They're in the pool of potential visiting opponents in London 378 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 3: at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. And I'm just gonna tell you, 379 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 3: having been there last year, that playing surface is not 380 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 3: a favorite of the players. I know. Tarren Johnson was 381 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 3: pretty outspoken about it last year after the loss to Jacksonville, 382 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 3: and I was down on the field surface and I 383 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 3: am hopeful they make it better because it's like almost 384 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:38,239 Speaker 3: the old astro turf with sand as a filler, and 385 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 3: it's rock hard. You can't really get your footing with 386 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 3: a cleat like you can with the rubber infill pellets 387 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 3: on the current surfaces around here in Heimark Stadium and 388 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 3: elsewhere in the league. So I don't know if they're 389 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 3: going to make an investment to change that. Hopefully the NFLPA, 390 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 3: which does get to weigh in on playing playing field 391 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:03,439 Speaker 3: cans and rank them, can maybe be heard on that subject. 392 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 3: Because the Bills were very close to having a couple 393 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 3: of major knee injuries. Tarren almost tore up his knee 394 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 3: and fortunately his foot slipped out to prevent his knee 395 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 3: from torquing in an awkward way. We know Matt Mulano's 396 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 3: leg got caught under a pile and he missed the 397 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 3: rest of the season. So yeah, it's not a great 398 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 3: playing surface. I'm kind of hoping they don't. They are 399 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 3: not one of the visiting teams that have to play 400 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 3: the Browns or Jets next year over there. 401 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 6: I think it should be a non negotiable that they 402 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 6: changed that up. I mean, it's so upsetting that you 403 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 6: have these guys voicing their opinions and these players across 404 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 6: the league, doesn't matter what team you're on. Put so 405 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 6: much time and effort into getting your body to a 406 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 6: place where it needs to be to play an NFL season. 407 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 6: Just to play on a surface that you could get 408 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 6: injured on is not a way to go about expanding. 409 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 7: The game anywhere. 410 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 6: So I would hope that it's at the forefront of 411 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 6: their minds to make sure this surface is where it 412 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 6: needs to be so that we can host games without 413 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 6: having to worry about player safety. 414 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, and look, we know the league is moving toward 415 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 3: playing sixteen games overseas per year, which would mean every 416 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 3: team is probably playing a game out of country, whether 417 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 3: it's Mexico, Brazil. They want to put a game in 418 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 3: Spain next year. I think it's next year or the 419 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:24,440 Speaker 3: year after. They want to have a game in Spain. 420 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 3: They're talking about Ireland now, and we know they went 421 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 3: to Germany last year, so that's just going to continue. 422 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 3: And knowing they want to expand it to sixteen games, 423 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 3: that's going to include all thirty two teams in the league, 424 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 3: unless a team like Jacksonville plays two games over there, 425 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 3: which they have done in the past as the quote 426 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 3: unquote London team, if you will, the Las Vegas Raiders, 427 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 3: two days after firing head coach Antonio Pierce, have also 428 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 3: fired GM Tom Telesco, Western New York native. Telesco was 429 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 3: hired after Pierce was named the head coach just last January, 430 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 3: but according to reports, new minority owner Tom Brady played 431 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 3: a heavy role in the restructuring plans. The desire in 432 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 3: Las Vegas is to have a GM and a head 433 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 3: coach that are kind of in lockstep as a tandem, 434 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 3: rather than trying to arrange a marriage, so to speak, like, oh, 435 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 3: Tlasco's already on board, we want you to work with 436 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,160 Speaker 3: this guy. They want to have two guys that maybe 437 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 3: have a prior working relationship, kind of like Brandon Bean 438 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 3: and Sean McDermott did in Carolina, rather than trying to 439 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 3: put a square peg in around. I get that to 440 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 3: some extent, But the guy just got the job January 441 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 3: twenty third, last year, even last a year, and not 442 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 3: to mention the fact he put together a pretty good 443 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 3: draft class for the Raiders with Brock Bauers as the 444 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 3: top pick. He's probably going to be the NFL offensive 445 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 3: rookie of the year, and he also got great value 446 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 3: back from the Jets. In the DeVante Adams trade. So 447 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 3: you do a good job and you're still out on 448 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 3: your keyster. I don't get it. 449 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 6: So yeah, I understand the relationship part of it, wanting 450 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 6: to get a GM and a head coach, see the 451 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 6: same things together are in lockstep, as you said. 452 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 7: But if you have a G, if you have a. 453 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 6: GM who's there, who has made some of the right decisions, 454 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 6: maybe you bring somebody in and see, hey, is this 455 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 6: the relationship going to work? And then you decide on 456 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 6: are we searching for somebody else or are we good here? 457 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 6: I know they are up against the clock though, with 458 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 6: the scouting combine right around the corner at the end 459 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 6: of February, and then free agency happens soon after that, 460 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 6: so you kind of have to have things figured out 461 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 6: pretty quickly here in the next several weeks. 462 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 3: Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson interviewing with the New England 463 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 3: Patriots Today. That's our AFC East News. Mike Vrabels still 464 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 3: considered the favorite with his obvious ties to the organization 465 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 3: as a former player, but Johnson reportedly very respected in 466 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 3: the New England front office, so maybe a blow them 467 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,719 Speaker 3: away type interview gets the job done. I don't know. 468 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 3: I kind of still think that Robert Kraft got spooked 469 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 3: last week when he heard that Mike Vrabel had interviewed 470 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 3: with the Jets, an organization he detests, and said, oh no, 471 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 3: that's not going to happen. So he fires his own 472 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,400 Speaker 3: head coach an hour after the last game and then 473 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 3: interviews two minority candidates on Monday, and then follows through 474 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 3: with interviewing variable yesterday. Now Ben Johnson scheduled for today. 475 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 3: I think that's going to reach a conclusion. They're going 476 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 3: to name a head coach by the weekend. I think 477 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 3: Monday the latest. 478 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 6: If you're not one of those first few teams that's 479 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 6: deciding who they're going to hire, you don't want to 480 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 6: be the last few teams where maybe your top guy 481 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 6: isn't out there anymore. 482 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. Quickly run through the last bit of items for 483 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 3: Around the NFL, presented by Kalida Healthy, official Healthcare System 484 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 3: of the Buffalo Bills. Tennessee Titans have a gauntlet of 485 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 3: an interview schedule coming up for their vacant GM position. Today, 486 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 3: they're going to interview Reggie McKenzie, Miami Senior Personnel Executive, 487 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 3: former GM of the Raiders, Thomas Dimitrov ex Atlanta GM, 488 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 3: John spy Tech, Tampa Assistant GM. This Spy Tech guy 489 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,719 Speaker 3: apparently went to college at Michigan with Tom Brady, so 490 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 3: people are saying keep an eye out on him possibly 491 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 3: being a GM candidate Back in Las Vegas. We'll see tomorrow. 492 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 3: They've got a slew of other GM candidates, including Bill's 493 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 3: Director of Player Personnel Terrence Gray. He'll be interviewing over 494 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 3: the weekend, but I think that's via zoom because his 495 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 3: team is still in the playoffs, but I'll have to 496 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 3: double check on that. And then Sunday two more candidates, 497 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 3: including Kansas City Assistant GM Mike Borganzi. And then did 498 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,959 Speaker 3: you see this? I gotta get Snoop Dogg's agent. His 499 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 3: agent is unbelievable.

We do have to 532 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 3: get to the phones at eight h three five point 533 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 3: fifty one eighty eight five fifty two five fifty the 534 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 3: number to get on board as it is an OBL 535 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,479 Speaker 3: Friday fan mail bag where we answer your most pressing 536 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 3: questions about the Bills and leading us off today is 537 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 3: John in Amherst. What do you got for us? John? 538 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 3: You're on one Bill's Lives. 539 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 8: Good afternoon. When a GM or a owner tries to 540 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 8: hire a new coach from a defensive or defensive coordinator position, 541 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 8: how do they determine whether the coordinator is good because 542 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 8: he's good or it is because of the players he's 543 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 8: got under him. I mean, Brady's a genius, but he 544 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 8: was fired from his last coordinator job. Our last two 545 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 8: coordinators were great, so they went to Cleveland, got fired 546 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 8: and hanging by the skin of their teeth in New York. 547 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 8: How do you know they're they're good because of the players, 548 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 8: are because they're good themselves. What are your thoughts? Thanks? 549 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a valid question, John, and I think that's 550 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 3: part of the vetting process. I mean, you're trying to 551 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 3: find out more about them, and so naturally a line 552 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 3: of questioning will come up. How do you prepare a 553 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 3: game plan? How do you utilize the talent on your roster? 554 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 3: What do you do when you're facing a team whose 555 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 3: talent is superior to yours? And a lot of the times, 556 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 3: the answers you get in those interviews provide you with 557 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 3: a pretty clear picture as to how those coaches operate 558 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 3: in a coordinator position, and you can pretty quickly draw conclusions. Now, 559 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 3: maybe the answers aren't as forthcoming as you might expect, Well, 560 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 3: then you've got to do a deeper dive and talk 561 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 3: to people that have worked with that person and maybe 562 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 3: get some more truthful answers or revealing answers from them. 563 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 3: And I would imagine that most owners and people handling 564 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 3: search committees to target potential hires, they do that. So 565 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 3: that's how you kind of determine it. You go on 566 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 3: past performance, and then you get expert advice, and then 567 00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 3: you try to get more from the actual candidate in 568 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 3: the interview set. 569 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 6: And in terms of past performance, I think the coaching 570 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 6: staff can help out the GM, and the GM can 571 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 6: help out the coaching staff. It's all about who you 572 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 6: bring inside of the building, drafting the right players, but 573 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 6: then it's on the coaching staff to get the most 574 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,239 Speaker 6: out of those players. And if that is successful, then 575 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 6: the GM looks good, then the coaching staff looks good. 576 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 6: So I think it's all about those two working in 577 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 6: tandem together. That's why we talk about maybe some of 578 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 6: these teams that have both head coach and GM openings 579 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 6: want to do that hiring together. 580 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think any coach in the NFL would 581 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 3: tell you without players, nobody's a good coordinator. It's a 582 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 3: matchup league. You need some measure of talent to make 583 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 3: it all work. So they'll tell you players make coaches, 584 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 3: not the other way around. Coaches can help develop players, 585 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 3: but players are what make coaches look good because they're 586 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 3: the ones talented enough to execute and win on the field. 587 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 3: So hopefully that helps answer your question. We got to 588 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 3: take a break here, but when we come back, we'll 589 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 3: get back to the phones answer more of your questions. 590 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:02,719 Speaker 3: So if you're holding at eight O three oh five 591 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 3: point fifty, please stay where you're at. We'll get to you. 592 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 3: We also will be talking soon with this week's legend 593 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 3: of the game, Kyle Williams.

He's said, he's a surprised 673 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 6: that you're not traveling the world and doing TED talks 674 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 6: motivational speeches for other people to listen to to view. 675 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 7: Are you surprised you're. 676 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 3: Not doing that? 677 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 5: Well, Dion doesn't know how much I like to ride 678 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:17,720 Speaker 5: my tractor. No, you know, we were talking earlier about 679 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 5: you know that that gets a lot of play, you know, 680 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 5: because I think that's everybody's opportunity to see the inside 681 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 5: of the locker room. And like just actually just found 682 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,839 Speaker 5: out Jay was the one sneaking the cameras in there 683 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 5: when I didn't know they were around. Because it's really 684 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 5: it's really an authentic interaction between you and your teammates, 685 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 5: you know, and it's such an intense and passionate game, 686 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 5: and you know, sometimes that bowls over and comes out 687 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,800 Speaker 5: of you. You know, that's an interaction between me and 688 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 5: my teammates. But I think the the the real change 689 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 5: and the real things that you know, make what you're 690 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 5: seeing now happen is what those guys do together daily, 691 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 5: you know, not not. 692 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 11: Necessarily like everybody's gassed up and fired up before the game. 693 00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 5: You know, you could find some really excited people and 694 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 5: citing speeches before a game just about anywhere. But you 695 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 5: know what I did with those guys early in their 696 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,239 Speaker 5: career and what they have continued to do themselves and 697 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 5: with the you know, you know the guys now, that's 698 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 5: why they've built what they've done is because of what 699 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 5: they do every single day now just ten minutes lad 700 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 5: up to a game. 701 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 3: But I think it goes without saying that people like you, 702 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 3: Eric Wood and others were kind of the the building blocks, 703 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:27,280 Speaker 3: the foundational blocks of what we're seeing this team as today. 704 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 3: Like this iteration because I think a lot of people 705 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 3: fans I'm talking about your career resonates with them because 706 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:41,359 Speaker 3: they were on that journey with you through playoff futility 707 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:45,839 Speaker 3: for that long stretch and then right at the tail 708 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 3: end of your career you get to be in a 709 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,399 Speaker 3: locker room watching a Bengals Ravens game with your two 710 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 3: boys in Miami and see it come to fruition.

We're 900 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:50,759 Speaker 3: here until three. I know a lot of people came 901 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 3: out to see Kyle Williams. You want to talk about 902 00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:56,359 Speaker 3: one of the favorite Bills of the drought era. That 903 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 3: guy's right at the top of the list because that 904 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:02,799 Speaker 3: guy was a lunch player that got the most out 905 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 3: of his abilities. I still remember the day of training 906 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:10,000 Speaker 3: camp two thousand and six, and in that draft class, 907 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,359 Speaker 3: John McCargo was a first round pick defensive tackle out 908 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,760 Speaker 3: of NC State. Kyle Williams was the first pick. Kyle 909 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 3: will joke that he was the first pick in the 910 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 3: draft in the fifth round. He was the first pick 911 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,040 Speaker 3: of the fifth round. And by the second day of 912 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,840 Speaker 3: training camp, I was like, that guy's going to start, 913 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:32,959 Speaker 3: Kyle Williams, and that guy's not. And not that I 914 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,399 Speaker 3: wished ill will on John macargo, but he just did 915 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 3: not have the requisite approach to professional football that that 916 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 3: guy had. And you know, you look at it at 917 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 3: the end and he's got a twelve year career, six 918 00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 3: years of which ended with Pro Bowls, So really a 919 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 3: top flight player. And I think if they do revive 920 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,520 Speaker 3: the Wall of Fame in the new stadium, he will 921 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:57,040 Speaker 3: be a top candidate for that, and it'll be a 922 00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 3: lot of fun to bring him back for that someday 923 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:02,160 Speaker 3: in the future. Hopefully that does come to Fruition. 924 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 6: Really cool, dude, Glad you got a chance of meeting 925 00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 6: you know, I was gonna say Brownie.

His last season was twenty eighteen, and you 927 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 6: hear so much about Kyle Williams still in twenty twenty four, 928 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,600 Speaker 6: So I was so excited to get to meet him, 929 00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 6: get to interview him. He's like a celebrity throughout the 930 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 6: building because people still remember what he did for the team. 931 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,319 Speaker 6: I recently did an interview with Micah Hyde and I 932 00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,839 Speaker 6: was talking about him and Jordan poy are really laying 933 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 6: the foundation for the last five years of this team 934 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,719 Speaker 6: and beyond really and saying, you know, you guys were 935 00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 6: a part of setting up the position group dinners and 936 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 6: a part of making sure that you know, players had 937 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,920 Speaker 6: events together where they could get together with their families 938 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 6: and their wives and their girlfriends. 939 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 7: And Mike said, hold up, we did some. 940 00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,359 Speaker 6: Of that, but Kyle Williams did a lot of that too, 941 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 6: and a lot of that is because of him. So 942 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,399 Speaker 6: it's just so great to hear them still talk about 943 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:59,880 Speaker 6: Kyle Williams, just with with how much he did for the. 944 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:03,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, he was he was a pros pro for sure, 945 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:07,040 Speaker 3: and it was all for the ultimate team goal, you know, 946 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 3: and you heard him say it, you know, yeah, we 947 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:10,720 Speaker 3: were great that it was great that we ended the 948 00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 3: playoffs drought, but we were kind of hoping for something more, 949 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:15,880 Speaker 3: and he was always shooting for that, and it was 950 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 3: evident in his play each and every week. You never 951 00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:21,640 Speaker 3: had to wonder.

I wish my car looked 962 00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 3: a shiny this time of year. It certainly doesn't. It 963 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 3: needs a car wash in the worst way.

Let's go back to the phones, though, 965 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 3: and waiting patiently, there is Nick down in Georgia. Nick, 966 00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 3: do you have any snow because my son doesn't. 967 00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:07,719 Speaker 13: Ath We've got the top of the grass as. 968 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:15,200 Speaker 3: A yeah, okay, it kind of counts. What do you 969 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:15,839 Speaker 3: got for us? Nick? 970 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:22,239 Speaker 13: Yeah, Sean Payton has a history of being suspended for 971 00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:27,160 Speaker 13: ordering hits on players, and what's to stop him from 972 00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:29,879 Speaker 13: ordering a hit on Josh. 973 00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. I think we have to remember this as accurately 974 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 3: as we can, Nick, and thanks for the call. This 975 00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:43,239 Speaker 3: was largely orchestrated by his defensive coordinator. You're talking about 976 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,240 Speaker 3: bounty gate when he was with the Saints. He actually 977 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:48,960 Speaker 3: got suspended for the entire twenty thirteen season. Sean Payton 978 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 3: did because he was the head coach of that team. 979 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:54,400 Speaker 3: His defensive coordinator was Greg Williams, who was also a 980 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:58,799 Speaker 3: former Bills head coach, and he was the one orchestrating 981 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 3: everything in terms of putting bounties on opposing quarterbacks in games. 982 00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 3: And because Sean Payton was the head coach, and whether 983 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 3: he was aware of it, not aware of it, whatever, 984 00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:15,280 Speaker 3: he took the fall. And look, you're running the show, 985 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 3: you're gonna take the fall. I don't feel like that's 986 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 3: who Sean Payton is at his core. He's an aggressive coach. 987 00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:28,279 Speaker 3: He's a no nonsense coach and he'll do what it 988 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:31,720 Speaker 3: takes to win. But I don't think he's a dirty coach. 989 00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:33,400 Speaker 3: I guess that's the best way I can put it. 990 00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 6: I also think when you serve a suspension like that 991 00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:39,000 Speaker 6: where you're out for a whole season, I don't know 992 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 6: if you would want to replicate anything that happened before 993 00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:45,640 Speaker 6: that season, knowing that, Hey, if he didn't know about it, 994 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 6: didn't know about it, got they got caught. 995 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:51,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, So and I would think too. I'm not going 996 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,200 Speaker 3: to pretend to know how everything was adjudicated with the 997 00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,480 Speaker 3: league in terms of his suspension and what was written 998 00:50:56,520 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 3: in there, but anything comes down the pike, anything remote 999 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:03,320 Speaker 3: close to that again, and he's involved, I wouldn't be 1000 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 3: surprised if Commissioner Goodell issues a lifetime ban. That wouldn't 1001 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,279 Speaker 3: shock me at all because there's just no place for 1002 00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:13,840 Speaker 3: that in the game. Uh, let's go over to Ron 1003 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 3: in Virginia. What do you got for us? Run? You're 1004 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:16,680 Speaker 3: on one Bill's Live. 1005 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:19,919 Speaker 12: Yeah, Hey, curas at Matty, thanks for taking my call. 1006 00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:22,479 Speaker 12: So I just got a couple of things real quick. One, 1007 00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:25,560 Speaker 12: I hope you guys have receipts for all this trash 1008 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,319 Speaker 12: people were talking about the bills. Two, there was a 1009 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:31,759 Speaker 12: TikTok thing where they were shouting let's go Buffalo, So 1010 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 12: I hope they you know, are ready for what they 1011 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 12: asked for? And also why do you think that they're 1012 00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 12: hating on Josh so much with the MVP? And finally, 1013 00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:44,880 Speaker 12: do you think that Sean Payton knows that we struggle 1014 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,880 Speaker 12: with the run? Do you think that he'll you know, 1015 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:51,160 Speaker 12: run it more than expected? Thank you have a good day. 1016 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:54,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, A lot of questions in there. They're not 1017 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:59,839 Speaker 3: great at running the ball as a team, so even 1018 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 3: if they may want to, what you lean on in 1019 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,240 Speaker 3: the playoffs is what you've been successful at all season. 1020 00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,320 Speaker 3: So I think Sean Payton's still going to gravitate towards 1021 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:11,880 Speaker 3: throwing the ball. The problem he runs into is he 1022 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:16,320 Speaker 3: doesn't have a lot of effective backs and his best 1023 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 3: back in terms of pass protection is Javonte Williams, but 1024 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:21,040 Speaker 3: he is not a breakaway threat by any means. But 1025 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:22,319 Speaker 3: he has to stay on the field so he can 1026 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 3: protect the quarterback, and so that's where they run into problems. 1027 00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 3: So no, I don't think they're going to go heavy 1028 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 3: with the run when they've been largely a passing team. 1029 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 3: And then he also asked about Denver's fans after the 1030 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:36,799 Speaker 3: game when they beat the Chiefs backups thirty eight nothing 1031 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 3: saying we want Buffalo. 1032 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,120 Speaker 7: Careful what you wish for, because here we are. 1033 00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:45,359 Speaker 3: Yes, careful what you wish for. And then I'm trying 1034 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:46,799 Speaker 3: to remember his other question. 1035 00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:50,799 Speaker 7: But the MVP, Oh yeah, Josh. 1036 00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:53,319 Speaker 3: Look, I think what we all have to remember is 1037 00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:59,480 Speaker 3: just because a journalist or a voter votes for someone 1038 00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:03,440 Speaker 3: else doesn't mean it's necessarily a diss Like if you 1039 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:06,880 Speaker 3: vote for Lamar, it's not necessarily a disrespect to Josh Allen. 1040 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:10,880 Speaker 3: You just think more highly of this quarterback than that quarterback. 1041 00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 3: And I think it's gotten a little adversarial. This whole, 1042 00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:17,800 Speaker 3: like the MVP thing that is dragged on for months now, 1043 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:21,759 Speaker 3: has just become so adversarial where people think, if you're 1044 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:25,120 Speaker 3: a voting for Lamar, it's a vote against Josh, and yes, 1045 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 3: in the vote count, it is. But I don't think 1046 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:30,879 Speaker 3: it's anything to say that Josh can't play. Lamar's great, 1047 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,839 Speaker 3: Josh can't play. I don't think it's that. And look, 1048 00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:36,240 Speaker 3: when we all stump for Josh, we're not saying Lamar 1049 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:43,000 Speaker 3: stinks either. They're both great players. I think hopefully it 1050 00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:44,960 Speaker 3: puts a little chip on Josh's shoulder and makes them 1051 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:45,399 Speaker 3: all the more. 1052 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:47,719 Speaker 6: Motivation and also let's listen to what those two have 1053 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,479 Speaker 6: to say about each other. Josh Allen respects the heck 1054 00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:53,719 Speaker 6: out of Lamar Jackson, and Lamar Jackson respects the heck 1055 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 6: out of Josh Allen. 1056 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:57,520 Speaker 7: Those two really enjoy watching each other. 1057 00:53:57,400 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 6: Compete, and I think that that says something for how 1058 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:02,799 Speaker 6: we should act as people too. 1059 00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:05,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, it's a good lesson to learn from the 1060 00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:07,560 Speaker 3: guys themselves relate to the break here, So we got 1061 00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:09,640 Speaker 3: to step aside now when we come back our number 1062 00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:13,399 Speaker 3: two with senior producer from NFL Films, Greg Cosel joining 1063 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 3: us as he does every Friday. He talks x'es and 1064 00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:18,960 Speaker 3: o's on this upcoming Wildcard matchup between Bills and Broncos 1065 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 3: that's coming your way. Next to here on One Bill's Lucke. 1066 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:03,080 Speaker 1: This the One Bill's presented by Kalida help. 1067 00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:07,800 Speaker 3: All Right. Hour number two Here on a Friday, Chris Brown, 1068 00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 3: Maddy lab One Bill's live on location at Northtown Toyota 1069 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:16,359 Speaker 3: eleven thirty five Miller'sport Highway in Amherst, just south of 1070 00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:19,799 Speaker 3: the two ninety stop on down join us for the 1071 00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:22,520 Speaker 3: second hour of the show, which begins on a Friday 1072 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 3: in the second Hour as always with senior producer from 1073 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:28,360 Speaker 3: NFL Films, Greg Cosel. Also co hosts of ESPN's NFL 1074 00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:32,799 Speaker 3: Matchup Show, and Greg's weekly segment is presented by Scott Lonyard, 1075 00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 3: an official commercial site work partner of the Buffalo Bills. 1076 00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:40,319 Speaker 3: All Right, Greg, Wildcard weekend. We finally made it. The 1077 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 3: Bills won the division like a month and a half ago. 1078 00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:45,360 Speaker 3: It's been a long slog to get here, but we 1079 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 3: finally made it. And look, it's an interesting matchup, certainly 1080 00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 3: one of strength on strength when it comes to Buffalo's 1081 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:56,680 Speaker 3: offensive line and Denver's defensive line. So why don't you 1082 00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,680 Speaker 3: kind of spell that out and get to the granular 1083 00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:02,640 Speaker 3: level with us on that matchup for this week? 1084 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:03,879 Speaker 12: Yeah. 1085 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,320 Speaker 9: I think overall the Denver defense is good. 1086 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:12,240 Speaker 10: I mean, it's their D line is really strong. Cooper 1087 00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:16,319 Speaker 10: and Benito have become really good edge rushers. I think 1088 00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:18,600 Speaker 10: when you deal with someone like Zach Allen, who might 1089 00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:20,800 Speaker 10: not be well known to a lot of people outside 1090 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:24,399 Speaker 10: of Denver, he's a really good d tackle. He's one 1091 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:27,120 Speaker 10: of the best D tackles in the league. Plays literally 1092 00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:30,360 Speaker 10: every snap, which is remarkable for a D tackle. John 1093 00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 10: Franklin Myer is another very very good player. I particularly 1094 00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:38,759 Speaker 10: like their secondary. I mean two names that I'm sure 1095 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 10: are not known to a lot of people, but I 1096 00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:43,440 Speaker 10: think their safety duo of PJ Lock and Brandon Jones 1097 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:46,759 Speaker 10: is really good. I remember watching Brandon Jones when he 1098 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:49,480 Speaker 10: was in Miami. I thought he was a terrific player. 1099 00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:53,360 Speaker 10: We know about Patsar Tan, we don't need to discuss him, 1100 00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:55,279 Speaker 10: you know. I guess the question in the minds of 1101 00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 10: many will be the rest of the secondary. Riley Moss 1102 00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:01,400 Speaker 10: has been up and down this year. Physical competitive player, 1103 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:03,840 Speaker 10: but he's been up and down. And then Jakwan McMillan 1104 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:05,759 Speaker 10: in the slot, who's actually been a nice player for 1105 00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:06,960 Speaker 10: them in the last couple of years. 1106 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:09,399 Speaker 9: I think this defense is pretty good. 1107 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:12,560 Speaker 10: And you know, as I mentioned before we came on, 1108 00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 10: you know, I'm a terrible prognosticator. The Bills could win 1109 00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 10: thirty five ten. It wouldn't surprise me for a second. 1110 00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:21,480 Speaker 10: But I just think this defense is pretty good and 1111 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:25,000 Speaker 10: it's not an easy defense to play against. 1112 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:30,000 Speaker 6: Taking that a step further with the Broncos defense, I mean, 1113 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:33,640 Speaker 6: they're known for playing man defense. They're known as blitzing. 1114 00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,160 Speaker 6: They're known for blitzing at a high rate. You have 1115 00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 6: Patsertan who can lock down a number one wide receiver. 1116 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:41,840 Speaker 6: The thing about the Bills is they really don't have 1117 00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:45,240 Speaker 6: a true number one. You've got different guys involved in 1118 00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:48,280 Speaker 6: different weeks who act as maybe that number one because 1119 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,720 Speaker 6: they have the hot hand. When you look at all 1120 00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:54,760 Speaker 6: of that, how can Buffalo find wins against Denver's defense? 1121 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:56,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, I know it's funny, Matty. 1122 00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 10: I've heard that all week and then you're not the 1123 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:01,520 Speaker 10: only one, so you know this is nothing about you. 1124 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 10: But I think that misses the point because when you 1125 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 10: have a corner like Sirtan who you can lock up 1126 00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:11,720 Speaker 10: one on one, whoever it may be, it could be you, Maddie, 1127 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 10: it doesn't matter. The point is is it gives so 1128 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:18,080 Speaker 10: many more options to what you can do in coverage 1129 00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:21,120 Speaker 10: with the rest of your defense. So it doesn't matter 1130 00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:24,880 Speaker 10: that Buffalo doesn't have a quote unquote number one in 1131 00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:27,440 Speaker 10: the way we think of a Justin Jefferson and aj 1132 00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:30,800 Speaker 10: Brown and Jamar Chase. The point is that Cirtan can 1133 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:33,720 Speaker 10: play man to man on whichever side of the field 1134 00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:36,600 Speaker 10: he's on, and it gives them so many more options 1135 00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:39,439 Speaker 10: to deal with the rest of the Bill's passing game, 1136 00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 10: because you know, I hear people say, oh, well, Shakira's 1137 00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:44,919 Speaker 10: going to eat up Jauan McMillan. Well maybe he ken, 1138 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:45,720 Speaker 10: maybe can't that. 1139 00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:46,680 Speaker 9: We don't know that. 1140 00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:50,120 Speaker 10: But the point is now, Jaquan McMillan has more help 1141 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:52,680 Speaker 10: from the rest of the defense than he would in 1142 00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:55,320 Speaker 10: a different situation if you didn't have Pats or Tan. 1143 00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:58,320 Speaker 10: So it's irrelevant that the Bills don't have a quote 1144 00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:01,840 Speaker 10: unquote number one receiver. To me, that totally misses the point. 1145 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:06,920 Speaker 3: It appears to me though, the soft underbelly of the 1146 00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,960 Speaker 3: Denver defense. Are there two inside linebackers in coverage? I 1147 00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:14,320 Speaker 3: mean sternd is a special teamer by trade. He's in 1148 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,760 Speaker 3: because Alex Singleton's out for the year and went down 1149 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:19,160 Speaker 3: very early in the year as you know, and then 1150 00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:22,120 Speaker 3: Cody Barton as well on the inside. We saw the 1151 00:59:22,120 --> 00:59:25,760 Speaker 3: Bills take advantage of matchups in that Detroit game against 1152 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:29,200 Speaker 3: their inside backers with their running backs. Would you be 1153 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:32,440 Speaker 3: surprised if you saw a similar approach this week? 1154 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 9: I would not. 1155 00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:37,400 Speaker 10: I mean, if I'm not mistaken, it was the Lions game. 1156 00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:39,240 Speaker 10: Where was it early in the game, maybe the second 1157 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 10: play where they sent Ty Johnson through the line of 1158 00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:42,959 Speaker 10: scrimmage and he caught. 1159 00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:44,000 Speaker 9: Well, was essentially the. 1160 00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,160 Speaker 10: Rail route or the wheel rail I want to call it. 1161 00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 10: I guess we're looking at it right now. And that 1162 00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:52,560 Speaker 10: was against Kwahant Alexander if I recall. So, I think 1163 00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:55,440 Speaker 10: you'll see you may not see that exact play because 1164 00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:58,400 Speaker 10: it was somewhat recent, and teams don't necessarily do the 1165 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 10: exact same thing if it was somewhat recent. But Brownie, 1166 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 10: I agree one thousand percent. I think you will see 1167 01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:07,640 Speaker 10: them look to try to take advantage of that, especially 1168 01:00:07,640 --> 01:00:10,400 Speaker 10: when they anticipate in man to man coverage, because they've 1169 01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 10: got backs who are very good receivers in both Johnson 1170 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:17,640 Speaker 10: who's certainly become that guy, but even James Cook who 1171 01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:19,680 Speaker 10: can be a very very good receiver as well, and 1172 01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:22,560 Speaker 10: both of them can run intermediate and vertical routes. 1173 01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:24,040 Speaker 9: They're not just checkdown backs. 1174 01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:28,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean their three running backs have eight touchdown 1175 01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 3: receptions this year. 1176 01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:34,640 Speaker 10: Yeah, So, I mean that's a very valid point. I mean, Barton's, 1177 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 10: you know, just a nice solid NFL linebacker, but he's 1178 01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:39,959 Speaker 10: not a great athlete, and he's not necessarily gonna run 1179 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:45,040 Speaker 10: with Johnson or James Cook on intermediate vertical routes. Sarah's 1180 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,800 Speaker 10: an interesting guy, no question, he wasn't the starter, and 1181 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:50,919 Speaker 10: obviously Singleton went down, and Singleton has always been among 1182 01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:52,920 Speaker 10: the league leaders and tackles. But the one thing I 1183 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,800 Speaker 10: will say about Stronad is he's long. He is six ' 1184 01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:57,840 Speaker 10: to three and he's a pretty good athlete. So again, 1185 01:00:57,840 --> 01:01:00,360 Speaker 10: I'm not sitting here saying he's a great player, but 1186 01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:03,160 Speaker 10: he does bring a lot of size and length, and they, 1187 01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:05,800 Speaker 10: you know, this is a team that does blitz, and 1188 01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 10: they do use Stronad as a blitzer as well because 1189 01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 10: he does have that kind of ability with his size 1190 01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 10: and length. 1191 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:16,000 Speaker 6: Focusing on Denver's offense, you've got a rookie quarterback and 1192 01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 6: boon Nicks, who doesn't operate like a rookie quarterback because 1193 01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 6: he has so many college games under his belt, has 1194 01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:26,520 Speaker 6: put up some impressive stats as a rookie, and because 1195 01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:29,920 Speaker 6: of that, that offense ranks tenth, averaging twenty five points 1196 01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:34,120 Speaker 6: per game. Is there any way that Buffalo's defense can 1197 01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:36,480 Speaker 6: get him into making rookie mistakes? 1198 01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:38,160 Speaker 7: And if so, what would that look like? 1199 01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:42,800 Speaker 10: Well, no, you're also not only are you dealing with 1200 01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 10: bon Knicks, but you're dealing with Sean Payton, who's really 1201 01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:49,080 Speaker 10: good at at understanding how to put together an offense 1202 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:52,880 Speaker 10: against defenses. And I think, again, you know, we don't 1203 01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:54,360 Speaker 10: have this game is going to play out. You know, 1204 01:01:54,480 --> 01:01:56,960 Speaker 10: bone Nicks goes into Buffalo and throws three picks. No 1205 01:01:56,960 --> 01:02:00,000 Speaker 10: one's going to be surprised, obviously, he's a rookie quarterback 1206 01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:03,440 Speaker 10: playing in his first playoff game against a really good team. 1207 01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:07,200 Speaker 10: But a couple of things about Nicks that really stood 1208 01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 10: out to me watching his tape. Some of them surprised me. 1209 01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:12,680 Speaker 10: Number one, his arm strength was better than I thought 1210 01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:15,160 Speaker 10: it was coming out of college. He made a ton 1211 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:19,920 Speaker 10: of throws between the hashes, between the numbers, particularly against 1212 01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 10: two high safety coverages, of which the Bills play a 1213 01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:28,600 Speaker 10: ton of two high safety coverages. So he was a 1214 01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:31,800 Speaker 10: really good window thrower, which you rarely see for a 1215 01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:34,360 Speaker 10: rookie quarterback in the NFL because you don't have to 1216 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:38,720 Speaker 10: make those kinds of throws in college. The other there's 1217 01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 10: there's a couple of players I think that you have 1218 01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:43,560 Speaker 10: to be very aware of with their offense, and this 1219 01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 10: has really shown up over the last month or so. 1220 01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:50,400 Speaker 10: Marvin Mims has become a very intriguing player. The way 1221 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,520 Speaker 10: they use him. He's a motion player. He's in the backfield, 1222 01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:56,920 Speaker 10: he's got dynamic speed, he can get deep. He's a 1223 01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:01,040 Speaker 10: really intriguing player. And they're very big at the other 1224 01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:04,320 Speaker 10: wide receiver positions, so you know, I guess take that 1225 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:07,400 Speaker 10: for what you will, but both Sutton and Valet are 1226 01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:10,720 Speaker 10: very big, and they're physical receivers and they can make 1227 01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:15,360 Speaker 10: intested catches. So you know, it's the one thing they 1228 01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:17,760 Speaker 10: don't do well and haven't done well all ears run 1229 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 10: the ball. So we'll see, I mean, ideally you get 1230 01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:23,200 Speaker 10: them in a lot of long yardage situations, ideally, but 1231 01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:25,400 Speaker 10: Sean Payton also knows that they can't run the ball, 1232 01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:28,000 Speaker 10: so you might see, you know, a lot of short 1233 01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:30,560 Speaker 10: passing game stuff just to get them to second and five. 1234 01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:34,280 Speaker 10: But you know, I don't think this is necessarily just 1235 01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:36,480 Speaker 10: you know, an easy offense and say, oh, well, you 1236 01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:37,720 Speaker 10: know it's bow Nicks. 1237 01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:38,760 Speaker 9: He's a rookie quarterback. 1238 01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:41,000 Speaker 10: I mean, he's played well and he's played a lot 1239 01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:44,040 Speaker 10: of football so and he's played in the SEC where 1240 01:03:44,080 --> 01:03:46,320 Speaker 10: he played a lot of big games, So we'll see, 1241 01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:49,360 Speaker 10: you know, it's I think there's I don't want to 1242 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,760 Speaker 10: say there's concerns because, like I said, you know, the 1243 01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:54,400 Speaker 10: Bills when they're playing well, they can beat anybody, and 1244 01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:55,720 Speaker 10: they can beat anybody big. 1245 01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:58,640 Speaker 9: So you know, you don't know, But I don't think. 1246 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:00,720 Speaker 10: I guess what I'm saying is, I don't think you 1247 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:02,680 Speaker 10: just chalk this up as if he let's talk about 1248 01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 10: next week. 1249 01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:07,760 Speaker 3: You know, right, the one thing bo Nicks has had 1250 01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:10,600 Speaker 3: trouble with is getting passes bad at the line of scrimmage. 1251 01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:14,040 Speaker 3: He leads the league in that category with sixteen, which 1252 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:16,840 Speaker 3: doesn't sound like a lot, but that's one a week basically, 1253 01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:19,400 Speaker 3: and probably in some cases more. As you know, the 1254 01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:22,280 Speaker 3: Bills have a lot of length at the end positions 1255 01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:26,120 Speaker 3: in Rousseau and Epanessa, and with all the perimeter screens 1256 01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:29,360 Speaker 3: that this team runs, I would like to believe that 1257 01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:32,920 Speaker 3: Rousseau and Epanessa are going to be hyper aware of 1258 01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:35,480 Speaker 3: that and get hands in the passing lays. They have 1259 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:39,600 Speaker 3: two interceptions off batted balls this season. How do you 1260 01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:43,000 Speaker 3: see that perhaps playing out knowing that is a primary 1261 01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:46,160 Speaker 3: component of Denver's passing game. 1262 01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:49,040 Speaker 10: Yeah, And it's a great point, Brownie, because it is 1263 01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:51,480 Speaker 10: a primary component because it in a sense replaces the 1264 01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:53,560 Speaker 10: run game because they've not really been able to run 1265 01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 10: the ball with any kind of consistency. So what Sean 1266 01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:59,720 Speaker 10: Payton is looking for as he's looking for ways to 1267 01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:03,480 Speaker 10: cre we ate sustaining plays and you know, they've struggled 1268 01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:05,280 Speaker 10: to do that running the ball, So they do it 1269 01:05:05,320 --> 01:05:07,640 Speaker 10: with a short passing game. They do it with screens, 1270 01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:11,880 Speaker 10: and you're right, you know that that's being coached this week, 1271 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:15,960 Speaker 10: you know, with Epinesso, with Rousseau. You know, look how 1272 01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 10: many times this year have we've seen Andrew van Ginkel 1273 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:21,600 Speaker 10: with the Vikings be so aware of those kinds of 1274 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 10: plays and make interceptions. So we'll see, but that's definitely 1275 01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:31,840 Speaker 10: an aspect of this game. You know, I think that 1276 01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:34,680 Speaker 10: the pass rush to me has to become a factor 1277 01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 10: in this game. And again by that, I don't mean 1278 01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:39,600 Speaker 10: you need six sacks. But you know Nix is a 1279 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:42,680 Speaker 10: rookie quarterback. They don't run it. You want to speed 1280 01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:44,800 Speaker 10: him up, you want to get him playing fast. You 1281 01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 10: want to get him starting to perceive and anticipate pressure. 1282 01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:51,320 Speaker 10: And I think that's an important component of this game. 1283 01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 6: In addition to the past rush. Are there any other 1284 01:05:55,640 --> 01:05:58,920 Speaker 6: components to Buffalo's game that you've noticed over the last 1285 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:01,920 Speaker 6: few weeks that you think factor into this matchup that 1286 01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:04,400 Speaker 6: have to play up to a different level on Sunday. 1287 01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:10,200 Speaker 10: Well, I think their safeties are critical in this game. 1288 01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:13,520 Speaker 10: The Bills I'm talking about because, as I said, Nicks, 1289 01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:16,000 Speaker 10: he throws the ball in the middle of the field. 1290 01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:19,200 Speaker 10: He's aggressive, He's willing to make those throws. His arm 1291 01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:21,520 Speaker 10: strength on those kinds of throws is a little better 1292 01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:25,040 Speaker 10: than you might think. You know, he's made some big 1293 01:06:25,080 --> 01:06:28,360 Speaker 10: time window throws this year against too High And I 1294 01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:31,840 Speaker 10: think that because Hamlin and Rapp are both healthy, right 1295 01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:36,200 Speaker 10: they're back playing, Yes, yeah, So I mean, you know, 1296 01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:39,960 Speaker 10: I think they both had solid seasons. I don't think 1297 01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:43,360 Speaker 10: they're the rangiest safeties in the league. They're both solid 1298 01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 10: football players. So I think those two guys are really 1299 01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:50,840 Speaker 10: important in past defense because you know that the Broncos 1300 01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:52,920 Speaker 10: are going to look to attack that and that's what 1301 01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:55,000 Speaker 10: they've done all year with the kind of routes they 1302 01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:58,240 Speaker 10: run because they've got two big receivers who are very 1303 01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:02,360 Speaker 10: good between the numbers and in VLA. So you know, 1304 01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:06,080 Speaker 10: I think that that Hamlin and rap are really, to me, 1305 01:07:06,720 --> 01:07:08,480 Speaker 10: really important players in this game. 1306 01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:12,960 Speaker 3: Looking at Buffalo's run game, you know they want to 1307 01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:15,480 Speaker 3: try to stay balanced as best they can. We know 1308 01:07:15,520 --> 01:07:17,800 Speaker 3: that Denver brings the number three run defense in the 1309 01:07:17,880 --> 01:07:21,840 Speaker 3: league into this game. Has anyone had any degree of 1310 01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:26,520 Speaker 3: success running on Denver? And if so, how has that 1311 01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:30,040 Speaker 3: manufactured itself? Because you know, some people say, well, you 1312 01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:31,560 Speaker 3: can't run up the middle on this team. It's like 1313 01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:34,640 Speaker 3: running into a brick wall. So if anything has worked 1314 01:07:34,680 --> 01:07:36,600 Speaker 3: for some teams in the run game, what has it 1315 01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:37,640 Speaker 3: been against Denver. 1316 01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:39,480 Speaker 1: Well? 1317 01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:41,800 Speaker 10: I can't think of, you know, specific of all their 1318 01:07:41,840 --> 01:07:43,560 Speaker 10: games right off the top of my head, but just 1319 01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:46,960 Speaker 10: thinking about what their players are, and I think that 1320 01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:51,560 Speaker 10: misdirection elements would be effective against this team. I think 1321 01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:54,000 Speaker 10: that you know the linebackers, you know, they don't have 1322 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:57,400 Speaker 10: great speed and range at linebacker. Bartons, like I said, 1323 01:07:57,440 --> 01:07:59,520 Speaker 10: just a nice, solid player. He's been around a league 1324 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:03,120 Speaker 10: a while, but he's with Seattle, he was with the Commanders, 1325 01:08:03,440 --> 01:08:06,280 Speaker 10: but he's not a guy that has great speed. I 1326 01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:09,720 Speaker 10: would think that you want to stay away from just 1327 01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:11,959 Speaker 10: you know, banging your head against the wall inside, although 1328 01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:14,040 Speaker 10: you're gonna have to do that at some point. Obviously, 1329 01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:15,840 Speaker 10: every run is not going to be the same. They 1330 01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:18,439 Speaker 10: have a multiple run game and they'll they'll use that, 1331 01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:22,439 Speaker 10: but I think that it's important in this game for 1332 01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:25,439 Speaker 10: misdirection elements and try to get to the perimeter. I 1333 01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:27,840 Speaker 10: mean Cook. You know the thing about Cook is we've 1334 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,960 Speaker 10: seen it. I mean, he can break long runs. That's 1335 01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:33,599 Speaker 10: probably the best thing he does, more so than being 1336 01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:36,599 Speaker 10: a grinder. You know, he's not built to be a grinder. Sure, 1337 01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:38,120 Speaker 10: there have been a couple of games over the last 1338 01:08:38,160 --> 01:08:40,439 Speaker 10: couple of years he's played that way, but that's not 1339 01:08:40,520 --> 01:08:44,120 Speaker 10: really who he is. He's not a grinder necessarily, although 1340 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:45,640 Speaker 10: he seems to be in the red zone. But his 1341 01:08:45,680 --> 01:08:49,600 Speaker 10: style overall is not that of a grinder. So I 1342 01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:51,320 Speaker 10: think that's one way to do it, because you don't 1343 01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:53,839 Speaker 10: want to get caught up. As good as this Bill's 1344 01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:56,240 Speaker 10: all line has been, and it's been a good all line, 1345 01:08:56,280 --> 01:08:59,560 Speaker 10: there's no question about that. They're facing Zach Gallen and 1346 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:03,639 Speaker 10: Franklin are two really really good players, and even DJ Jones, 1347 01:09:03,920 --> 01:09:06,320 Speaker 10: you know, depending on who's out there, DJ Jones is 1348 01:09:06,320 --> 01:09:07,840 Speaker 10: a really good run defender as well. 1349 01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:12,000 Speaker 3: All right, Greg, thanks for setting us up for this 1350 01:09:12,040 --> 01:09:15,120 Speaker 3: one on wild Card weekend. We'll catch up with you 1351 01:09:15,160 --> 01:09:15,679 Speaker 3: next week. 1352 01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:18,400 Speaker 9: Well, I hope we set up for another one next week. Guys. 1353 01:09:19,360 --> 01:09:22,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, might be a big one if the right teams win. 1354 01:09:23,400 --> 01:09:25,599 Speaker 10: Correct, correct, There'll be a lot to talk about if 1355 01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:26,400 Speaker 10: the right teams win. 1356 01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:26,920 Speaker 9: Yeah. 1357 01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:28,320 Speaker 3: Oh yeah. 1358 01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:30,639 Speaker 10: All right, thanks Greg, having good week and enjoy the games, 1359 01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:32,400 Speaker 10: all right, you two guys, thank you. 1360 01:09:33,320 --> 01:09:35,280 Speaker 3: All right. That's Greg co Sale joining us as he 1361 01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:41,000 Speaker 3: does every Friday. And yeah, it's funny because there are 1362 01:09:41,280 --> 01:09:45,320 Speaker 3: a wide range of opinions on how people see this 1363 01:09:45,479 --> 01:09:48,320 Speaker 3: game playing out. Greg is of the opinion that it's 1364 01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:52,439 Speaker 3: going to be a tight game. And look, when you 1365 01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:57,360 Speaker 3: play a quality defense like that of Denver, sometimes defenses 1366 01:09:57,400 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 3: can hold teams in games even if they offense doesn't 1367 01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:05,400 Speaker 3: measure up to the opponent's offense. And I would say, look, 1368 01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:07,840 Speaker 3: Denver can score points, we know that, but I just 1369 01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:11,400 Speaker 3: think Buffalo's offense is in a different class. And so 1370 01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:15,800 Speaker 3: if the Bills can get an early scoring drive, maybe 1371 01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:19,200 Speaker 3: get another, the pressure is going to be on Denver 1372 01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:21,560 Speaker 3: to try to keep up, and that's going to be 1373 01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 3: very hard for them. So fast start would be important. 1374 01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:28,160 Speaker 3: But you know, if Denver gets the offense for the 1375 01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:30,240 Speaker 3: Bills off to a slow start and keeps them in 1376 01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:32,439 Speaker 3: the game, well, then everything could change and it could 1377 01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:34,479 Speaker 3: be a tight nail bier for a while. 1378 01:10:34,760 --> 01:10:37,600 Speaker 6: I also think it's interesting the conversation that we had 1379 01:10:37,640 --> 01:10:39,679 Speaker 6: at the beginning of the interview with Greg co cell 1380 01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:44,519 Speaker 6: about how people are viewing Broncos, the Broncos defense against 1381 01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:48,639 Speaker 6: Buffalo's offense, and how going into this game. I've listened 1382 01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,720 Speaker 6: to several podcasts previewing this matchup, several interviews that you 1383 01:10:51,760 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 6: guys have done this week, and it does seem split 1384 01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:58,759 Speaker 6: in terms of people who believe because the Broncos play 1385 01:10:59,040 --> 01:11:02,360 Speaker 6: man coverage a lot of the time, because they blitz 1386 01:11:02,439 --> 01:11:05,600 Speaker 6: at a high rate, because the Bills don't have a 1387 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:09,720 Speaker 6: number one wide receiver, that there will be some discrepancies 1388 01:11:09,760 --> 01:11:13,400 Speaker 6: that Buffalo's offense can take advantage of. But there's also 1389 01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:16,639 Speaker 6: the party, like Greg Cosell said of I don't think 1390 01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:19,519 Speaker 6: it's that simple. I think because you have pat Sir 1391 01:11:19,640 --> 01:11:23,519 Speaker 6: Tan Denver's defense can do a lot of different things 1392 01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:26,680 Speaker 6: to try and hold Buffalo out of scoring in the 1393 01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:27,320 Speaker 6: red zone. 1394 01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:31,920 Speaker 3: Where do you so he's right about that, because like 1395 01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:34,160 Speaker 3: a lot of times, the Bills use like a three 1396 01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:36,400 Speaker 3: by one set, three to one side, one to the other. 1397 01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:39,000 Speaker 3: They will put Sir Tan on that one side of 1398 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,200 Speaker 3: the field with the one receiver, whoever it may be, 1399 01:11:41,560 --> 01:11:44,760 Speaker 3: and say you lock him down, and he takes care 1400 01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:47,879 Speaker 3: of that half of the field. So that allows everybody 1401 01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:50,040 Speaker 3: else to focus on the other half of the field 1402 01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:53,520 Speaker 3: where there are numbers, and they can put more defenders 1403 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:55,840 Speaker 3: in that area than you have receivers, And so now 1404 01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:59,200 Speaker 3: getting open becomes a problem. And now your pass rush 1405 01:11:59,240 --> 01:12:01,519 Speaker 3: is getting home because because Josh has to hold the 1406 01:12:01,520 --> 01:12:03,240 Speaker 3: ball a little longer because he had doesn't have this 1407 01:12:03,280 --> 01:12:04,880 Speaker 3: guy as an option, and the other guy's on the 1408 01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:08,720 Speaker 3: So I get what he's saying premise wise, but I 1409 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:12,240 Speaker 3: also know this against teams that play a high degree 1410 01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:17,960 Speaker 3: of man coverage. Buffalo has absolutely throttled who plays a 1411 01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:21,960 Speaker 3: lot of man coverage, The Jacksonville Jaguars forty seven to ten. Okay, 1412 01:12:22,360 --> 01:12:25,320 Speaker 3: who plays a lot of man coverage? The Los Angeles Rams. 1413 01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:27,920 Speaker 3: The Bills lost that game, but they scored forty two 1414 01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:31,800 Speaker 3: points and it got so bad that Sean McVay said, 1415 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:34,559 Speaker 3: we're going for it here. We are not punting it 1416 01:12:34,640 --> 01:12:38,400 Speaker 3: back to Josh Allen. So they want to play a 1417 01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:40,600 Speaker 3: lot of man coverage, and they want to and if 1418 01:12:40,640 --> 01:12:42,920 Speaker 3: you want to Blitz have fun with that too, because 1419 01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 3: Josh Allen's passer rating against the Blitz this season one 1420 01:12:46,040 --> 01:12:49,679 Speaker 3: twenty three. So yes, they have a lot of things 1421 01:12:49,720 --> 01:12:52,680 Speaker 3: that they feel confident in. The guy on the other 1422 01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:55,479 Speaker 3: side's pretty darn good too, and maybe he's not first 1423 01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:57,479 Speaker 3: team All Pro in the eyes of some people, they 1424 01:12:57,520 --> 01:13:01,080 Speaker 3: might think differently after this week. I'm just saying we 1425 01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:03,320 Speaker 3: are up against the break here, so we will step aside, 1426 01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:05,320 Speaker 3: but we'll get back to your phone calls in the 1427 01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:08,439 Speaker 3: last half hour of the show. We also have Collision 1428 01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:12,479 Speaker 3: Course and Tailgate Friday. It's postseason time. You got to 1429 01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:14,280 Speaker 3: step up your game with what's on the menu on 1430 01:13:14,320 --> 01:13:16,880 Speaker 3: the tailgates, especially when it's this darn cold. You got 1431 01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:18,680 Speaker 3: to get some good stick to your ribs food. So 1432 01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:20,599 Speaker 3: I'm curious to see what people have on the menu 1433 01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:22,760 Speaker 3: this week on Tailgate Friday. We'll get to all of 1434 01:13:22,760 --> 01:13:25,280 Speaker 3: that when we return here on One Bill's Live, presented 1435 01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:31,280 Speaker 3: by Collide Health. It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right back 1436 01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:34,040 Speaker 3: here on One Bill's Live Here on a Friday, and 1437 01:13:34,160 --> 01:13:38,120 Speaker 3: we're coming to you on location at Northtown Toyota. Whatever 1438 01:13:38,120 --> 01:13:40,400 Speaker 3: you're looking for, you'll find it at Northtown. Northtown the 1439 01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:43,679 Speaker 3: official automotive dealer of the Buffalo Bills. They are also 1440 01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:47,439 Speaker 3: this week's proud game sponsor, as well as the sponsor 1441 01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:51,200 Speaker 3: for the entire playoff run of the Buffalo Bills, and 1442 01:13:51,240 --> 01:13:54,479 Speaker 3: we're all hoping that's a deep one for sure. Time 1443 01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:57,599 Speaker 3: for this week's Collision course, brought to you by Gabe's Collision, 1444 01:13:57,840 --> 01:14:00,000 Speaker 3: the official auto collision repair center of the Buffalo Bill 1445 01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:03,160 Speaker 3: get back in the game, and this week it's pretty obvious. 1446 01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:06,800 Speaker 3: It's the strength on strength matchup Maddie Buffalo's offensive line 1447 01:14:07,320 --> 01:14:10,880 Speaker 3: against the Broncos defensive front. As we know, the Bills 1448 01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:15,360 Speaker 3: for two years running fewest sacks allowed. Broncos this year 1449 01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:19,880 Speaker 3: led the league with sixty three sacks. They have a 1450 01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:22,120 Speaker 3: heck of a crew up there, and we didn't get 1451 01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:24,479 Speaker 3: a chance to talk to Greg about this, but what 1452 01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:28,080 Speaker 3: they like to do vance Joseph, their DC likes to 1453 01:14:28,120 --> 01:14:31,639 Speaker 3: send five man pressures to get one on one matchups 1454 01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:35,040 Speaker 3: across the board because he believes my group of five 1455 01:14:35,200 --> 01:14:38,519 Speaker 3: is better than yours and someone up there will win quickly. 1456 01:14:38,920 --> 01:14:41,679 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's gonna be so fun to watch this matchup. 1457 01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:44,519 Speaker 6: I mean, you got best on best and we don't 1458 01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:46,560 Speaker 6: always see something like this. Yes, you're gonna see a 1459 01:14:46,600 --> 01:14:48,960 Speaker 6: top ten against the top ten, but a number one 1460 01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:52,800 Speaker 6: in few at sacks allowed against the league leader in 1461 01:14:53,040 --> 01:14:56,920 Speaker 6: sacks sixty three is a huge number. That defensive line 1462 01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:00,559 Speaker 6: has been getting in a massive amount of pressure on 1463 01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:05,000 Speaker 6: opposing offensive lines and their quarterbacks. But this offensive line 1464 01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:08,360 Speaker 6: that Buffalo has is it's just different this year. You 1465 01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 6: hear the guys talk about each other, how the communication 1466 01:15:11,280 --> 01:15:14,439 Speaker 6: has been on point. I asked Josh Allen about what's 1467 01:15:14,520 --> 01:15:17,000 Speaker 6: been different about the offensive line this year and he said, 1468 01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:20,040 Speaker 6: the conversations that the guys are having at the line 1469 01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:23,400 Speaker 6: pre snap are conversations I haven't heard yet. And I 1470 01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:26,760 Speaker 6: asked Dean Dawkins about that as well, and he said, 1471 01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:30,160 Speaker 6: it just it stems from us being around each other 1472 01:15:30,360 --> 01:15:33,479 Speaker 6: all the time, and the running backs being a part 1473 01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:36,640 Speaker 6: of these meetings that the offensive linemen have, and the 1474 01:15:36,640 --> 01:15:39,840 Speaker 6: offensive line then communicating with the titands and it seems 1475 01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:43,480 Speaker 6: like it's all happening together as like a well orchestrated 1476 01:15:43,560 --> 01:15:47,559 Speaker 6: symphony of this group performing at their best. I think 1477 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:51,719 Speaker 6: Buffalo's offensive line is ready to take on this defensive line. 1478 01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:55,040 Speaker 6: We heard from Joe Brady earlier this week our offensive 1479 01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:57,880 Speaker 6: coordinator and he said, I'm confident in the group to 1480 01:15:57,920 --> 01:15:58,760 Speaker 6: get the job done. 1481 01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:02,439 Speaker 3: Yeah. Thank Aaron Kromer, the offensive line coach is gonna 1482 01:16:02,479 --> 01:16:08,040 Speaker 3: have some protections dialed up, specifically for some third and 1483 01:16:08,080 --> 01:16:11,400 Speaker 3: long situations. Maybe you keep a tight end in to chip, 1484 01:16:11,479 --> 01:16:14,519 Speaker 3: maybe you keep Ty Johnson in the backfield to pick 1485 01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:18,040 Speaker 3: up somebody extra that might be coming. So I think 1486 01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:22,160 Speaker 3: there will be some protection contingencies in the game plan 1487 01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:25,040 Speaker 3: as well in the event that there are a couple 1488 01:16:25,080 --> 01:16:27,040 Speaker 3: of instances where these guys are getting home. We got 1489 01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:29,719 Speaker 3: to remember sixty three sacks that averages out to about 1490 01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:31,640 Speaker 3: three and a half sacks a game. Yes, that's a 1491 01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:35,360 Speaker 3: fat number. So the Bills only gave up fourteen all season. 1492 01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:39,160 Speaker 3: That's less than one per game obviously, so something's got 1493 01:16:39,200 --> 01:16:41,479 Speaker 3: to give there, and you know, hopefully the Bills are 1494 01:16:41,560 --> 01:16:43,959 Speaker 3: up to the task. The benefit of being at home obviously, 1495 01:16:44,880 --> 01:16:46,760 Speaker 3: you don't have to go on a silent count. You 1496 01:16:46,800 --> 01:16:49,519 Speaker 3: can go on a snap count, so that gives that 1497 01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:52,559 Speaker 3: prevents the defense from having an advantage of crowd noise 1498 01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:55,320 Speaker 3: to get off the snap that much faster. So hopefully 1499 01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:57,960 Speaker 3: playing at home pays dividends. As well. All right, that 1500 01:16:58,080 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 3: is Collision Course, brought to you by Abbess Collision. We 1501 01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:04,120 Speaker 3: move ahead to tail Gay Friday. This is my favorite 1502 01:17:04,160 --> 01:17:06,599 Speaker 3: time of the week, presented by High Marked Blue Cross 1503 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:09,760 Speaker 3: Blue Shield.

You're a health fruit junket. 1509 01:17:31,439 --> 01:17:37,320 Speaker 3: Citrus spinach salad sounds good. Citrus vinaigrette dressing uses blood, oranges, grapefruit, mandarins, 1510 01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:41,840 Speaker 3: frank salt, honey, and pepper. Next, we dredge jumbo shrimp 1511 01:17:41,840 --> 01:17:44,160 Speaker 3: in a spicy flour mixture and pants Hear them in 1512 01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:47,160 Speaker 3: a hot, oiled pan until golden brown. You're making my 1513 01:17:47,240 --> 01:17:50,880 Speaker 3: mouth water stimpy. Remove the shrimp, Add the olive oil, 1514 01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:54,519 Speaker 3: gently pan fry thin slices of garlic, serrano, jalapeno, and 1515 01:17:54,560 --> 01:17:57,760 Speaker 3: fresh basil leaves. Holy cow, there's the heat. Serrano and 1516 01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:02,960 Speaker 3: halapeno together, yo toss fresh spinach with the citrus vinagarette dressing. 1517 01:18:03,280 --> 01:18:05,479 Speaker 3: Place the salad in the center of a large plate. 1518 01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:09,720 Speaker 3: Arrange the spicy shrimp, citrus sections garlic pepper mixture in 1519 01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:12,120 Speaker 3: a circle outside the salad. Go bills. This guy's gotta 1520 01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:12,959 Speaker 3: get his own cooking. 1521 01:18:12,760 --> 01:18:15,240 Speaker 7: Scot That sounds so good.

I mean I put peblano 1524 01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:25,240 Speaker 3: peppers in my chili when I make them, which is 1525 01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:28,240 Speaker 3: a nice smoky pepper. So I can get behind this 1526 01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 3: well done. I like that a lot. Was there a 1527 01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:34,280 Speaker 3: photo j that they get sent along with that?

He's a Pittsburgh guy. It's like, 1537 01:19:04,720 --> 01:19:08,080 Speaker 3: you know, he's big on Bavarian style pretzels, coming from Pennsylvania, 1538 01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:12,880 Speaker 3: but he loves the split pretzels, hot mustard, potato chips, 1539 01:19:12,880 --> 01:19:16,719 Speaker 3: French onion dip.

I called to tell you a quick 1572 01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:52,439 Speaker 14: little story about Kyle Williams, but I want to make 1573 01:20:52,479 --> 01:20:55,879 Speaker 14: a real quick comment about the game too. It's fine. 1574 01:20:56,520 --> 01:20:59,200 Speaker 14: I seem to be finding a lot of people are 1575 01:20:59,240 --> 01:21:01,840 Speaker 14: so afraid of Denver Defense, and there's been so much 1576 01:21:01,840 --> 01:21:04,679 Speaker 14: talk about the Denver defense to Denver defense, and there's 1577 01:21:04,720 --> 01:21:07,479 Speaker 14: no doubt they're good. Okay, I'm not gonna deny they're 1578 01:21:07,520 --> 01:21:11,519 Speaker 14: not good, but I would contend they have not played 1579 01:21:11,920 --> 01:21:15,559 Speaker 14: maybe another team all year, maybe one that has as 1580 01:21:15,600 --> 01:21:19,120 Speaker 14: many answers as we do on offense. So let's not 1581 01:21:19,280 --> 01:21:24,040 Speaker 14: forget they have to deal with us too. So I 1582 01:21:24,120 --> 01:21:26,360 Speaker 14: expect to win. I don't know that it's going to 1583 01:21:26,400 --> 01:21:28,479 Speaker 14: be easy, but if we play our game, we should 1584 01:21:28,520 --> 01:21:32,960 Speaker 14: be fine. As far as Kyle Williams goes. I hope 1585 01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,800 Speaker 14: this is a little toquny, But years ago, when Kyle 1586 01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:38,519 Speaker 14: was still playing, I had the opportunity to go down 1587 01:21:38,520 --> 01:21:41,479 Speaker 14: to the Christian Center downtown where a handful of the 1588 01:21:41,560 --> 01:21:45,720 Speaker 14: Bills were giving talk speeches and talking to the community, 1589 01:21:46,439 --> 01:21:51,839 Speaker 14: and I could never forget how when Kyle Williams spoke, 1590 01:21:52,439 --> 01:21:56,479 Speaker 14: there was very little talk about football. He talked about family, 1591 01:21:56,600 --> 01:22:00,519 Speaker 14: he talked about faith, he talked about Digdan, he talked 1592 01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:03,960 Speaker 14: about character, He talked about all these different kinds of 1593 01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:07,120 Speaker 14: things about how he lives his life and all the 1594 01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:11,240 Speaker 14: experiences he's had in his life, and how these things 1595 01:22:11,240 --> 01:22:14,640 Speaker 14: had served him so well through his life, And it 1596 01:22:15,360 --> 01:22:19,040 Speaker 14: obviously came across as not only is this guy a 1597 01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:23,360 Speaker 14: very special football player, he is a very special human 1598 01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:25,880 Speaker 14: being and so and after when it was all done, 1599 01:22:26,680 --> 01:22:28,559 Speaker 14: they had table set up which you could go meet 1600 01:22:28,600 --> 01:22:32,320 Speaker 14: the guy, have a little something fined and say hell. Well, 1601 01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:34,679 Speaker 14: of course I got right in line with Kyle's group, 1602 01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:38,519 Speaker 14: and when I got to him, I thanked the first 1603 01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:41,679 Speaker 14: speech and I put my hand out to shake his hand. 1604 01:22:42,560 --> 01:22:45,839 Speaker 14: And you seem to forget how big a human beings 1605 01:22:45,920 --> 01:22:49,200 Speaker 14: these guys truly are, because he grabbed my hand and 1606 01:22:49,280 --> 01:22:51,559 Speaker 14: he engulfed my hand, my wrist all the way up 1607 01:22:51,560 --> 01:22:56,040 Speaker 14: my forearm and I'll never forget that. But I hope 1608 01:22:56,040 --> 01:22:59,320 Speaker 14: that is a two corny. But Kyle is a very 1609 01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:03,240 Speaker 14: very special schol human being and it was nice to 1610 01:23:03,320 --> 01:23:06,639 Speaker 14: actually get to meet him. So that's my story. Guys. 1611 01:23:06,960 --> 01:23:09,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks, Mark, appreciate it. And yeah, as stand up 1612 01:23:09,840 --> 01:23:12,960 Speaker 3: a guy as they come. Whether you meet him once 1613 01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:14,559 Speaker 3: or you meet him one hundred times, he's the same 1614 01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:18,040 Speaker 3: guy every time. And uh, I think that's why Kyle 1615 01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:22,120 Speaker 3: was so respected as a player here by the Buffalo fans, because, 1616 01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:25,000 Speaker 3: like I said, you got the same performance out of 1617 01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:27,000 Speaker 3: him every single week, and it was Pro Bowl level 1618 01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:29,240 Speaker 3: type stuff. I mean, he was a guy that used 1619 01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:31,320 Speaker 3: to call the pass rush games up front because he 1620 01:23:31,400 --> 01:23:33,559 Speaker 3: was such a student of the game and he used 1621 01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:35,960 Speaker 3: to call those things. Now that Duan Smooth's doing that, 1622 01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:38,320 Speaker 3: he was the first guy to do that stuff years ago. 1623 01:23:39,400 --> 01:23:42,280 Speaker 3: Just a stand up guy in every way, shape and form. 1624 01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:44,840 Speaker 3: We'll try to rifle through these calls here. Let's go 1625 01:23:44,880 --> 01:23:46,760 Speaker 3: to Ryan in California. Next. What's up Ryan? 1626 01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:52,400 Speaker 15: Hey, how's it going seeing Hello from Napa, California tailgating. 1627 01:23:52,439 --> 01:23:56,519 Speaker 15: We'll go to tailgating with some baby back ribs and 1628 01:23:57,360 --> 01:24:00,920 Speaker 15: some Napa Cabernet sauvignon. But my question for you, wow 1629 01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:07,800 Speaker 15: is specifically specifically regarding the statistic of EPA. I listen 1630 01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:09,400 Speaker 15: to you guys every day, and I listen to Joe 1631 01:24:09,479 --> 01:24:13,559 Speaker 15: Marino on Locked on Bills, and I just wonder, like 1632 01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:16,160 Speaker 15: that's something they lean heavily on, which kind of basically 1633 01:24:16,160 --> 01:24:20,000 Speaker 15: measures where somebody starts on the field and the estimated 1634 01:24:20,040 --> 01:24:22,599 Speaker 15: points they should have based off their starting field position 1635 01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:25,640 Speaker 15: and the points they actually get. And the Bills are 1636 01:24:25,720 --> 01:24:27,600 Speaker 15: ranked fairly high at that. I think they're about like 1637 01:24:27,680 --> 01:24:30,120 Speaker 15: eighth or ninth ranking in that, and the Broncos are 1638 01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:32,640 Speaker 15: relatively low with that. So it seems like the Broncos 1639 01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:34,920 Speaker 15: generally depend on more of an impact play to stop 1640 01:24:34,960 --> 01:24:40,080 Speaker 15: a drive rather than necessarily the bend and not break mentality. 1641 01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 15: So I was just kind of wondering to get your 1642 01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:44,519 Speaker 15: guys at opinion about that. And I love the work 1643 01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:47,000 Speaker 15: you guys do. Big fan of the show. Much love. 1644 01:24:47,080 --> 01:24:50,599 Speaker 3: I'll shut up, all right, Thanks Ryan, and good luck 1645 01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:52,639 Speaker 3: with that cab. And I hope you're safe out there. 1646 01:24:52,640 --> 01:24:54,439 Speaker 3: I know, NAPA, you're probably out in the clear there. 1647 01:24:54,439 --> 01:24:58,800 Speaker 3: You're further north than where those LA fires are burning. Yeah, 1648 01:24:58,920 --> 01:25:02,200 Speaker 3: expected points at it's a metric that's commonly used now. 1649 01:25:02,720 --> 01:25:05,719 Speaker 3: And look, you can use those metrics if you want. 1650 01:25:06,439 --> 01:25:09,080 Speaker 3: I like using the hardcore numbers. I'm not saying those 1651 01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:11,479 Speaker 3: don't have value, But the one that I like the 1652 01:25:11,520 --> 01:25:15,160 Speaker 3: most is points per drive. The Bills lead the league 1653 01:25:15,640 --> 01:25:18,720 Speaker 3: in points per drive. They average three points per possession, 1654 01:25:18,960 --> 01:25:21,240 Speaker 3: which is a fat number. It doesn't sound like much, 1655 01:25:21,240 --> 01:25:23,200 Speaker 3: but when you think about how hard it is to 1656 01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:25,479 Speaker 3: consistently score points in this league, and the fact that 1657 01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:28,880 Speaker 3: the Bills average three points per drive, that's a number 1658 01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:31,400 Speaker 3: that makes me feel very good about this week's game, 1659 01:25:31,439 --> 01:25:33,960 Speaker 3: no matter what defense they're facing. And just to go 1660 01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:36,760 Speaker 3: back to our last caller, real quick, Maddy he was 1661 01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:40,760 Speaker 3: saying that everybody's all worried about this Denver defense. The 1662 01:25:40,800 --> 01:25:45,320 Speaker 3: Denver Broncos are three and seven against teams over five hundred, 1663 01:25:46,160 --> 01:25:47,960 Speaker 3: and one of those wins was last week against the 1664 01:25:48,040 --> 01:25:52,240 Speaker 3: Chiefs backups, so essentially two and seven against teams over 1665 01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:54,599 Speaker 3: five hundred. They've been playing a third place schedule all year. 1666 01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:56,600 Speaker 3: The Bills have been playing a first place schedule for 1667 01:25:56,680 --> 01:25:59,720 Speaker 3: four years because when they win the division, you play 1668 01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:01,120 Speaker 3: a first play schedule the next yure. 1669 01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:03,880 Speaker 6: I think that's important to look into when you look 1670 01:26:03,920 --> 01:26:06,320 Speaker 6: at the stats of a team, when when you're in 1671 01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:09,160 Speaker 6: a matchup, especially a playoff matchup, is all right, who 1672 01:26:09,160 --> 01:26:12,320 Speaker 6: have these teams played? Who have they played really well against? 1673 01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:15,519 Speaker 6: And who they who have they struggled against? And they've 1674 01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:19,160 Speaker 6: struggled against teams that are really good teams. So this 1675 01:26:19,280 --> 01:26:22,880 Speaker 6: matchup against the Broncos, well, the defense is a top 1676 01:26:22,960 --> 01:26:27,919 Speaker 6: ten defense. It'll be interesting to see how this defense 1677 01:26:28,080 --> 01:26:31,639 Speaker 6: does against Buffalo's offense, knowing that they are the second 1678 01:26:31,720 --> 01:26:33,840 Speaker 6: best in the league, and like you said, points per 1679 01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:35,200 Speaker 6: drive huge number for them. 1680 01:26:35,320 --> 01:26:38,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, break time for us here. When we come back. 1681 01:26:38,160 --> 01:26:40,560 Speaker 3: We'll lay out the vision to victory. See if we 1682 01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:42,200 Speaker 3: can squeeze in a phone call to here on One 1683 01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:48,280 Speaker 3: Bill's Live.

Thanks to everybody that 1687 01:26:58,600 --> 01:27:01,639 Speaker 3: came out to take in piece of the show. Want 1688 01:27:01,640 --> 01:27:03,839 Speaker 3: to remind you to check out Northtown Auto on Instagram 1689 01:27:03,920 --> 01:27:07,240 Speaker 3: and Facebook for exclusive Buffalo Bills ticket and merch contests 1690 01:27:07,320 --> 01:27:10,320 Speaker 3: all season long. They already close the registration for the 1691 01:27:10,320 --> 01:27:11,960 Speaker 3: one this week where someone's going to kick a field 1692 01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:14,519 Speaker 3: goal for a chance to win a pickup truck at halftime. 1693 01:27:14,560 --> 01:27:17,400 Speaker 3: That's gonna be crazy, but we have to get to 1694 01:27:17,479 --> 01:27:20,559 Speaker 3: Vision to Victory presented by atwall eyecare, the official ie 1695 01:27:20,560 --> 01:27:23,120 Speaker 3: care provider of the Buffalo Bills. I'll go on the 1696 01:27:23,120 --> 01:27:25,160 Speaker 3: offensive side of the ball here, Maddie, and I think 1697 01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:27,799 Speaker 3: what they want to do is target those two inside 1698 01:27:27,800 --> 01:27:30,160 Speaker 3: linebackers in the coverage element of the game. I don't 1699 01:27:30,160 --> 01:27:33,599 Speaker 3: think they're good at running and covering, so I'm hoping 1700 01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:36,560 Speaker 3: they either use the backs maybe a little Dalton kincaid 1701 01:27:36,920 --> 01:27:39,880 Speaker 3: and get them somehow matched up on those linebackers to 1702 01:27:40,120 --> 01:27:41,840 Speaker 3: kind of work the middle of the field because I 1703 01:27:41,840 --> 01:27:44,880 Speaker 3: think that's the soft underbelly of the Denver defense. So 1704 01:27:44,920 --> 01:27:46,160 Speaker 3: hopefully they make some hay there. 1705 01:27:46,320 --> 01:27:49,559 Speaker 6: All Right, what this defense and Buffalo's defense has to 1706 01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:54,000 Speaker 6: do against Denver's offense. You've got a rookie quarterback in Bonix, who, no, 1707 01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:56,599 Speaker 6: he hasn't operated like rookie quarterback, but I think if 1708 01:27:56,600 --> 01:27:59,479 Speaker 6: you can speed up Nix's decision making, maybe you get 1709 01:27:59,479 --> 01:28:00,799 Speaker 6: a couple of the rookie mistakes. 1710 01:28:00,840 --> 01:28:02,519 Speaker 7: I think it starts with pressure. 1711 01:28:02,800 --> 01:28:06,120 Speaker 6: Against pressure, Nick's only completes forty five percent of his 1712 01:28:06,280 --> 01:28:10,760 Speaker 6: passes averages four point two passing yards per attempt. That's 1713 01:28:10,800 --> 01:28:12,839 Speaker 6: the lowest in the NFL. So I think it starts 1714 01:28:12,960 --> 01:28:15,920 Speaker 6: upfront with the defensive line. Von Miller has been playing 1715 01:28:15,960 --> 01:28:19,200 Speaker 6: great since Week twelve, with this pressure rate that you 1716 01:28:19,280 --> 01:28:21,519 Speaker 6: get out of him when he's on the field. He's 1717 01:28:21,520 --> 01:28:24,320 Speaker 6: playing against his former team, so I think von Miller 1718 01:28:24,360 --> 01:28:25,360 Speaker 6: has to set the tone. 1719 01:28:25,200 --> 01:28:26,320 Speaker 7: For this defensive line. 1720 01:28:26,560 --> 01:28:29,040 Speaker 3: Remember, if you're going to the game on Sunday, you're 1721 01:28:29,080 --> 01:28:32,040 Speaker 3: going to get a Ticketmaster rally towel, So get him 1722 01:28:32,120 --> 01:28:35,519 Speaker 3: roll in early, multi colored and pretty cool. If you've 1723 01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:38,000 Speaker 3: got a man cave at home, or even a Bill's basement, 1724 01:28:38,720 --> 01:28:40,240 Speaker 3: this is a perfect thing to hang up on the 1725 01:28:40,240 --> 01:28:43,800 Speaker 3: wall even after the game on Sunday. But if you're going, 1726 01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:47,959 Speaker 3: be loud, be proud, make it difficult for that Denver offense, 1727 01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:50,200 Speaker 3: and hopefully we're talking about a victory show on Monday 1728 01:28:50,240 --> 01:28:52,040 Speaker 3: when we'll see at noon. Thanks for listening. 1729 01:29:01,560 --> 01:29:02,840 Speaker 13: The mo
