1
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 1: Puts down at a Steve Tasker who has put all

2
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: over the field. He was kind of a dual roll

3
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:18,799
Speaker 1: flighter for you, Steve, a blimp. We're not even in

4
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 1: the strated beard of normalcy. Josh takes the stamp. He

5
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: steps away from more pressure, still trying to find room.

6
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,199
Speaker 1: Now he steps up. Now he's got to keep it

7
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 1: in run with it inside the forty inside the thirty.

8
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 1: Stood on the run, and he finally steps out of

9
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: bounds at the Jacksonville twenty three yard line. From forty

10
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 1: one yards to kick is on the way, went glenty

11
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,480
Speaker 1: long enough and it is good. He left no doubt about.

12
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 1: As Tyler Bass drills a forty one yard or to

13
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: Josh fikes the handoff, steps up in the pocket. He

14
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: is hitting his drop. Josh Allen sat by Josh Allen.

15
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: First time that's ever happened with a man the same

16
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: name as Zach, A quarterback with the same name Alan

17
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: waiting for the snap, kings pressure coming again. Josh in trouble,

18
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: gets rid of it, fires it down the middle, picked off,

19
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: intercepted by Josh Allen, and he has brought down at

20
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: the Buffalo twenty nine yard line. Here's the snap rights,

21
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 1: kick is on the way up and good, and the

22
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,559
Speaker 1: Jaguars take the lead. There's the snap, Here comes the rush.

23
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: Josh dodges and runs to his right, looks down field,

24
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: still looking, still looking, fires down the middle, and it

25
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: is incomplete at the Jacksonville thirty yard line and tended

26
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 1: for Stefan digs. And that is likely to do it

27
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: for the Buffalo Bills. The crowd knows it all right.

28
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: That is your Joshiba Game rewind, official copier company of

29
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Welcome to a Buffalo Football Monday. Chris Brown,

30
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker with you to cover and review a performance

31
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: that may have been as unexpected for this team in

32
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: the last two seasons at least maybe more. I don't

33
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:12,119
Speaker 1: think anybody had that as the final result. There are

34
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 1: many reasons for it, and we're going to dive into

35
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: any and all of them with you. At eight oh

36
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: three oh five fifty one eight eight eight five fifty

37
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 1: two five fifty a nine six loss at the hands

38
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: of the previously one and six Jaguars, who are now

39
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 1: two and six on the season, after beating the Bills

40
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: by a field goal in a defensive affair where the

41
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: only side of the ball that came to play was

42
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 1: the defense for Buffalo, and even they had some unfortunate

43
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: infractions and some missed opportunities, as the Bills finished minus

44
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 1: two in the turnover margin. And I'm meant to look

45
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,359
Speaker 1: this up this morning and forgot to. I can't remember

46
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: the last time they were on the wrong end of

47
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: the turnover margin this season. There might be one other game.

48
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: I'll have to look it up in a probably the

49
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh game with him. Perhaps it might have been one,

50
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 1: and I think they were even in Tennessee. Maybe I'm

51
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: not sure. I don't know, but yeah, this is uh,

52
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 1: you're right. I said this to h to Maddie and

53
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: the Bills tonight that you know, this is one of

54
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: those games where, yeah, it's so close, and this game

55
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: was so close and Jacksonville there's no way they were

56
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: going to run off and leave the Bills on the

57
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 1: scoreboard with the way the Bills defense was playing. But

58
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: even the Bill's defense will look at this game, and

59
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 1: he said, there's missed opportunities defensively and some personal foul,

60
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: all that stuff that was going on with you know,

61
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: there's a million, not a million, every play in this

62
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: game could have been. The difference in the game is

63
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: what it boils down to a three point game. It's

64
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: that tight, and that's what happens in this game. You see.

65
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: I know I was listening to sal earlier, listening to

66
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: Howard and Jeremy, and everybody goes back and you go

67
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: back to wealth. This play would have been different. And

68
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: they use each play, each bad official call, each break

69
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: that the Bill's got, each good play the hell had

70
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 1: as an indication of some system make either problem or

71
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: unused asset that they don't go to enough. Yeah, that's

72
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 1: all bunk. They just didn't play well enough in any phase.

73
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: The defense played extremely well, no question about it, but

74
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: even those guys will tell you there were things they

75
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: wish they'd have done. They would have made a difference,

76
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 1: was saying right after they dropped, dropped interceptions, penalties, continued

77
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 1: drives because of penalties, all of that stuff, and the

78
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: defense looking at themselves, going, man, we could have made

79
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: a bigger difference, even though they're still gonna be number

80
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: one in the league, no question about it. But you know,

81
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: it's a team that just didn't play well enough to

82
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 1: win everywhere they needed to to win. The defense got

83
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 1: to feel good about where they sit. They're doing a

84
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: lot of great things, but they did it again. Let's

85
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: face it, if you're looking at the Bill's offense is

86
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: going to be sitting there going man, oh man, what

87
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: are we doing? The offensive line injuries really showed up

88
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: way more than I thought they were going to. Yeah,

89
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: but it wasn't just the fill ins that struggled in

90
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 1: yesterday's game. Right front. I would say Mitch Morris is

91
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 1: the only guy that played a capable game yesterday on

92
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 1: that entire offensive front. The two guards struggled, the two

93
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 1: tackles struggled, and that's surprising. It was. It was troubling

94
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:21,559
Speaker 1: to see it across the board, getting beat off the edge,

95
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: getting shed to make plays at the line of scrimmage,

96
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: and there were times where didn't even know the snap count,

97
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: laid out of the laid out of their stance in

98
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: a pass protection and a guy comes clean because of it.

99
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't have that stuff. I mean, that's

100
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 1: just that's just lack of concentration and focus. There's no

101
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 1: excuse for something like that. You get beat one on

102
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: one by a guy who's just beaten you on that play,

103
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 1: and you're given your best to win on that play,

104
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: all right, you know that's going to happen in this league.

105
00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: The competition level is razor thin. But you're laid out

106
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: of your stance or your technique is poor, and you

107
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: get your doors blown off because of it. That's that

108
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 1: you just can't have it, just can't have it. And

109
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: it happened all too often yesterday. The line just was

110
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 1: flat out beat left, right and center. Yeah, and that

111
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: led to what I think was a little you know

112
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: spot where Josh. We saw Josh kind of say, you

113
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: know what, I'm gonna win this thing by myself. Right,

114
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: he was trying to do too much, which he does

115
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: once in a while when because he thinks, because he

116
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: knows he's done it in the past, well, he puts

117
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 1: the burden on himself, right when he sees things going sideways,

118
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get us out of this, right, I'm gonna

119
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: make a play. Let me rally the team do something here,

120
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: because I mean, his teammates have said it, he's the

121
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,559
Speaker 1: best player we have on the team, on the entire team.

122
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 1: So if he knows that, he knows his player, his

123
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: teammates know that he's gonna feel compelled to do something

124
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: in the moment, especially as a captain and a leader

125
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 1: on the team. I think one of the times when

126
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 1: he saw a particular example of him doing that was

127
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: on the fourth and two where he kept it on

128
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: a read option Singletary up the middle. He's like, listen,

129
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: it's third and two. Whim been doing anything. I'm gonna

130
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: take this. I'm gonna get it, And he ended up

131
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: getting keeping it when he should have handed it off

132
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: to single Tarry for the two yard game, got tackling

133
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: the backfield and coughed it up and turned it over

134
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 1: instead of getting the first down to single Tarry up

135
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: the middle. They end up turning it over and Jacksonville

136
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: takes over. And that was inside the forty yard line

137
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: at Jacksonville. That you know, that's that's indicative of where

138
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: josh I think josh Mine got there in that game.

139
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: Yesself felt like, man, I've got to do this. Nobody

140
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: else was able to do anything, and so unfortunately he

141
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: gets to a place where he puts it on himself

142
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: and forgets all of the things he's supposed to read

143
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: as a play on fools, I mean, I have to

144
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: tell anybody on a read option like that, the quarterbacks

145
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: looking at the defensive end. If he crashes down, he

146
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 1: keeps it and runs outside of him. If he holds

147
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: and he's waiting for you over there, you hand it off.

148
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: Dwayne Smooths standing there waiting for him, and he still

149
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: pulled it out of Singletary's bread basket on that play,

150
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: and bad enough, you don't get the first down, but

151
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: then you turn it over on top of that, and

152
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: Josh Duwas credit said after the game, I got to

153
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: have better decision making through the course of a game

154
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: like that to help us more. But even if he did,

155
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,719
Speaker 1: I'm not convinced they would have won this game. There

156
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: were so many things that were wrong with execution, a

157
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: lack of urgency. It was just this lack of urgency

158
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 1: on offense. It was startling to me because you don't

159
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: usually see that when I think too when the team

160
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 1: shows up and has doesn't have early success, particularly a

161
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: team like the Bills who expected to go in there

162
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: and kind of roll it up a little bit. Um

163
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: When they don't have early success, they start to do

164
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: things outside the norm. And they just got overwhelmed by

165
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: the by the intensity the Jaguars brought. They could have

166
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: never matched it. They didn't match it, never matched. And

167
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: I think that's one one of the reasons, was because

168
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: you know, they weren't winning up front consistently enough, and

169
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: they ended up, you know, and I said this yesterday,

170
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: ended up almost like the Bills when they had the

171
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 1: ball were playing defense against him. Say you know what

172
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 1: I'm saying there defense. They were kind of playing defensive

173
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: against the Jaguars pass rush and a dB group that

174
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: were just you know, they were attacking on all fronts

175
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 1: and Josh was either getting rid of the football fast

176
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 1: or had to run for his life. They gave up

177
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: four sacks yesterday. That's it was a quarterbacks hits and

178
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: it could have been worse if Josh did not avoid

179
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: the pressure in the pocket. They got twenty much as

180
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: he did. They got twenty plus pressures yesterday. Every every

181
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 1: offensive lineman except Mitch Morse gave up five pressures in

182
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: a sack. U It was. It was a rough day.

183
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: It's a rough day for Josh and the offense. And

184
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: then you know you've got you compound that with the

185
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: guys that were injured, Zach Moss going out early with

186
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: an injury, Tarn Johnson going out with an injury, Cole

187
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: Beasley being hampered in out of the lineup for a

188
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: stretch because he got shaken up a little bit with

189
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: his ribs. Dawson knoxes out with an injury. Zack Moss. Yeah,

190
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: I said, Zach Moss. So they you know it that

191
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: that game took a toll on the Bills and they

192
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 1: did not They did not bounce back in a fashion

193
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 1: I think they could be happy about. Yeah, eight oh

194
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,959
Speaker 1: three oh five fifty one eight eight eight five fifty

195
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: two five fifty to get on board here as we

196
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: have open phone lines for you. We will talk to

197

Speaker 1: Eric Wood in the third hour the show to get

198
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: his thoughts on the game, as he was there for

199
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: the radio broadcast, as we know, does the games with Murth,

200
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: So we'll get to him in the third hour the show.

201
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,840
Speaker 1: But between now and then it's mostly you guys on

202
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 1: the phones and on the tweet sheet at One Bills Live.

203
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,959
Speaker 1: So we lead off here today Jim in Olean, as

204
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: we're asking for your takeaways from yesterday's game. Jim, what

205
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: do you have for us? You're on One Bill's Live.

206
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: In a word, yuck, I mean, if I wasn't, if

207
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: I was the defense, I wouldn't talk to the offense

208
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 1: all this week. Correct me if I'm wrong, Steve Well,

209
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: wasn't there a time in the Super Bowl run in

210
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: the nineties where the Bills were two weeks in a row,

211
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: seventeen and a half point favorites and they lost both games.

212
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: I was trying. I was talking to one of my

213
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: I was talking to an old coach today who gave

214
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: me a call, and we were trying to think of it.

215
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: We couldn't remember that, so you may be right. We

216
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: thought there's got to be spots in that stretch where

217
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: we did, but I can't remember what they were. I

218
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: think they were both Indianapolis and New England, who stunk

219
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: at the time. If I'm not mistaken, I could be wrong,

220
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: but this sort of smells like this. And you know,

221
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: after when I looked at the bid and I saw

222
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: the you know, the next four games, they scared me

223
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: because sometimes you can think that all you gotta do

224
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: is just show up and you're gonna win. And well,

225
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: the offense sure didn't show up, and the defense had

226
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 1: a couple of errors, but yet you know held them

227
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: the nine points. When your defense holds you the nine

228
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: point and you're the opposing team to nine points, you

229
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:28,719
Speaker 1: should win the game, Yeah, if you just really should. Um.

230
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: It sort of scares me now because you know, yeah,

231
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: they got the Jets next week, you know, but I

232
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 1: don't look at any game as a gimme after after yesterday,

233
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 1: and you shouldn't um and then and then it gets

234
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,439
Speaker 1: tougher than what they got to play New England twice.

235
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: They got to play Tampa, you know, Lantis coming on,

236
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, New Orleans. I mean they may be struggling,

237
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: you know with New England at the end of the year,

238
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: you know for the AFC East. Yeah, we shall see.

239
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: Jim got to get to some other people. Thanks for

240
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 1: the call. Eight oh three h five fifty. Yeah, after yesterday,

241
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 1: nothing is a gimme. Jay Buzzby, who's a writer for

242
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 1: Yahoo Sports, he was kind of talking about all that

243
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: went down in the league this weekend, and it was

244
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: actually chronicled in a league release where four teams Denver, Jacksonville,

245
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 1: Kansas City, and the Giants each entered this past weekend

246
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,199
Speaker 1: with a record of five hundred or worse and beat

247
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: a team that began the day in first place in

248
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: their division. It's the first time since twenty eleven that

249
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 1: four teams with a five hundred or below record entering

250
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: week nine or later each defeated a division leader on

251
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: the same day. Denver obviously beat Dallas, Jacksonville beat Buffalo,

252
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: the Giants who the Giants beat them, they beat the

253
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 1: Raiders Raiders, and then Kansas City beat Green Bay with

254
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 1: a backup quarterback. So there's that he based. But Jay

255
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,839
Speaker 1: Buzby from Yaho Sports basically said comfort is the enemy.

256
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: Expectation is poison. Really yeah, it's it's it's it's rough.

257
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: You're we were looking at the standings. I mean you

258
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: look down, ten of eleven top teams in the Conference

259
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: of AFC have five wins. Pittsburgh is a sixth seed

260
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: and they've got their four and three. They've got a

261
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: better a winning record. So eleven teams have winning record

262
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: in the AFC, and then it goes to Indianapolis who's

263
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: four and five. And then of course the bottom four,

264
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: which are the Jets, Jacksonville, Miami, and Houston, are the

265
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: four teams that don't have winning records. Um, well, actually

266
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: in Indianapolis there's five of them. Indie Jets, Jacksonville, Miami,

267
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: Houston are the only five teams in the conference that

268
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: do not have a winning record. Yeah, it's a dog

269
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: fight and me and the Patriots were mentioned by Jim.

270
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: They've won their last three in a row after starting

271
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: out two and four. They're outscoring their opponents on that

272
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 1: three game winning streak one oh five to forty three,

273
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 1: and four of their five wins have come on the

274
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: road this season, so they're undefeated on the road. I

275
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: think they're one of only two teams unbeaten on the road.

276
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: I believe the Titans might be the other team. Yeah,

277
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: New England is there? Are they own four at home?

278
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 1: Or own they were one and three? Perhaps, Yeah, I'll

279
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 1: have to double check that, but I don't believe they've

280
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: lost on the road yet. But they lost Week one

281
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 1: to Miami. We know that they lost to Tampa at home,

282
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: So that's two right there that I'm yeah they aware of.

283
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 1: And then they lost to Tampa Bay at home, lost

284
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 1: to Dallas at home. So they lost to Dallas, Tampa Bay,

285
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: New Orleans, and Miami all four home losses. Now that's

286
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: where they've lost four games. All right, You tell me

287
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: that's not a freaky schedule. It is freaky. It's wild.

288
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: Let's go back to the phones, and we go to

289
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: Carl and cheek awaga, Carl, what do you have for us?

290
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: You're on one Bill's life. Oh, guys, go ahead, many Yeah,

291
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 1: you're there. Yeah, we're well, go ahead, Carl, go ahead, Yeah, Okay,

292
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: I'll tell you something. I'm seventy seven years old, guys.

293
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: I never seen a worst disgraceful offensive line game that

294
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: I can ever remember. That was. I mean, that was

295
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 1: not bad. It was terrible. And then and then the

296
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: Bills are supposed to have a decent offensive line, that

297
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 1: a great one, and they're supposed to have really good

298
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 1: backups and I saw nothing, nothing, nothing at all. I mean,

299
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: that was the worst. That was disgraceful. And what's wrong

300
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: with this team? I mean three points last week in

301
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: the first half, six points this week against the one

302
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 1: and seventeam. I mean, let's face facts, guys. Are our

303
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: dreams of Super Bowl? To me? Are you know bend

304
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: over and kissed them goodbye? I don't know. I don't

305
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: know about that, Carl. I get it's been it's been

306
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 1: three out of four or the last the last four

307
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: halves of football the Bills have played. Three of them

308
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: haven't been very good. But I think I'm I'm a

309
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,919
Speaker 1: long way. I'm a long way from kissing everything that

310
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,719
Speaker 1: they want goodbye, and this I think it's still in

311
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,959
Speaker 1: there for them to have no question there. You're right.

312
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 1: Their offensive line's got to play better. They've got to

313
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 1: get some guys back from injury. Feliciano's out for the

314
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 1: next two more games before he comes back at least

315
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,400
Speaker 1: uh Spencer Brown don't have any idea how his back

316
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 1: has kind of come back. Um, And they've got a

317
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: couple of guys tarn Johnson being first and foremost, Zach

318
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,400
Speaker 1: Moss being first and foremost, and Dawson Knox. I got

319
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 1: three really quality guys that they're waiting on to come

320
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 1: back too. So there are hampered and their depth has

321
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,080
Speaker 1: been a disappointment so far, which it's which is a

322
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: little bit of a surprise. I thought this was a

323
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,360
Speaker 1: much more talented roster deeper down into it. I thought

324
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 1: they'd played better behind those guys. But I guess the

325
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 1: rash and the combination of injuries they got have been

326
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: too tough for them to overcome. But I think I'm

327
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: far from where you're at, although I do agree with

328
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: you where the offensive line played yesterday. There's reasons for it,

329
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 1: and there's still a lot of football to play, and

330
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: this team's got a lot more under the hood that

331
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 1: they haven't shown. He's calling it the worst offensive line

332
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: performance he's ever seen. I think that's a little strong,

333
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 1: and you don't have to go football he's seen you

334
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 1: don't have. Well, he's seventy seven, so I think he's

335
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: seen some. I don't think you have to go back

336
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: too far to remember the struggles of twenty eighteen when

337
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 1: the team could not win at the line of scrimmage

338
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: week after week after week after week. It was a

339
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,479
Speaker 1: weekly occurrence. Forgot about that weekly occurrence, which is why

340
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: they signed four offensive linemen in free agency the year

341
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 1: prior or the year after in the free agency. So

342
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 1: let's not go too far down the road here and

343
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 1: say it was the worst ever. It wasn't good, there's

344
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: no question about it. But I don't know about anybody else,

345
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: but I still remember twenty eighteen and how bad that

346
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: line looked. So let's just keep that in mind and

347
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,639
Speaker 1: not go too far down the road on calling it

348
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: the worst ever. It wasn't good. It's not good enough

349
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: for winning football. It does have to get better. Coach

350
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 1: McDermott said it himself. We got to fix some things,

351
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,959
Speaker 1: and they do and they have to do it on

352
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 1: the fly. Here. There's no bye week to make some

353
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,159
Speaker 1: wholesale changes or figure something different out. They got to

354
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: do it now and pronto. Let's get back to the phones, though,

355
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: as we want to hear from you first and foremost,

356
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:41,919
Speaker 1: and we go to Brian and Buffalo. Brian, what do

357
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: you have for us? You're on one Bill's Live. What

358
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 1: do you do it? Guys? I just want to indeed,

359
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: they try a couple more street plays. And also at

360
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 1: the second half, why need come out like with a

361
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 1: do huddle. If my last thing is you know all

362
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: these people they're putting them down. I guarantee a certain

363
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: next week, jump right back in the van wagon. You know,

364
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 1: you can't give up. We got a lot of injuries

365
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: and stuff. And look at these other teams. I was

366
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: like Dallas in the Rams today, you're gonna put them

367
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 1: down too. I mean, come on, well you're better than that.

368
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 1: Thank you? All right, Brian, appreciate it. What place you

369
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: see he wants. He's wondering why there are more screen

370
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,719
Speaker 1: passes or more no huddle. I'll tell you why there

371
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 1: aren't more screen passes. They can't execute them effectively. They

372
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,680
Speaker 1: take too long to develop. Um, even if you had

373
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,880
Speaker 1: Brita in there on a screen pass, I'm not convinced

374
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 1: the convoy of blockers you need to execute down the

375
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 1: field would be able to get there in due course

376
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 1: and on time. Um. They've tried this for the better

377
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: part of the last two seasons. They are just not

378
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: a good screen team. I'm talking about traditional screens with backs. Here.

379
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 1: You want to run a wide receiver screen, go for it.

380
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,200
Speaker 1: They actually tried that. They tried that against Miami last

381
00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: week and had limited success in minimal gains three yards

382
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 1: four yards. They played a fast defense in Miami. They

383
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 1: played a fast defense yesterday in Jacksonville. And when you

384
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 1: don't have the horses to get out there in front

385
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 1: of the guy catching the ball on a screen pass,

386
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 1: you're not gonna get much out of it. I mean,

387
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,680
Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying, Brian, back off the pass rush,

388
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 1: you know, throw a screen, victimize him that way. All right, maybe,

389
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 1: But the vast majority of times they've tried to turn

390
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:28,360
Speaker 1: to a screenplay it hasn't been enormously productive. Yeah, they

391
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 1: have and that's been ongoing. And I you can if

392
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 1: your offensive line struggling, ask him to do screen passes

393
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 1: puts them in the center of the I mean they

394
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: now they really have to execute right now. You've got

395
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: a block in space right now, exactly now, you gotta

396
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: get a run. They can't block standing next to each other.

397
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 1: So I get it. The no huddle, he asked. Why

398
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 1: they went no huddle after halftime, probably is a change up.

399
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: They probably felt like they needed to get a rhythm,

400
00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 1: and they wanted to have some success, and they want

401
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 1: to get the Jacksonville defense off its edges a little

402
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 1: bit as well. That was probably more about Jacksonville's defense

403
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: in their pass rush than it was about anything else.

404
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 1: So the Bills trying to go no huddle to keep

405
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 1: Jacksonville a little bit more simple defensively. The only thing

406
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: with that that was puzzling was and I'm not saying why,

407
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: but you're going no huddle to keep them from substituting.

408
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 1: But you were staying in the same personnel grouping pretty

409
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: much wire to wire in this game. The Bills were

410
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 1: eleven personnel pretty much for the entire game. I think

411
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 1: at the very end they went four wide on the

412
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,679
Speaker 1: last possession of the game that they had, and I

413
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 1: understand why Brian Dable did it. You don't have Dawson Knox.

414
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: You're having trouble protecting, so you need a tight end

415
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: in to help chip a little bit. You need to

416
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 1: keep it back in to help protect. So you can't

417
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: go four wide and just have one guy back there

418
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 1: helping out. Because when it was four versus five, the

419
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,120
Speaker 1: Bills couldn't protect Josh Allen, So you have to keep

420
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 1: a tight end in or a back in. So you're

421
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 1: probably looking at eleven personnel to the day, and if

422
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,160
Speaker 1: you go twelve, you're bringing a backup or a practice

423
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: squad guy on the field unless you want to put

424
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,399
Speaker 1: Reggie Gilliam up on the line as your second tight end.

425
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,640
Speaker 1: I suppose you could have done that. Otherwise you're looking

426
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: at Kahali Warring or Quintin Morris who just got called

427
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: up as a practice squad call up this week. So

428
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,239
Speaker 1: I think Brian Dable was he didn't have a lot

429
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: of cards in his hand to utilize in terms of

430
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:28,439
Speaker 1: personnel groupings. To me, this was largely inability at the

431
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage on offense decision making in most cases

432
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: by Josh and just a flat out lack of urgency.

433
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 1: They did not match the Jacksonville Jaguar's intensity, particularly on

434
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 1: their defensive side of the ball. Bill's offensive. You when

435
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 1: you're a team like Buffalo going in when you're when

436
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 1: you're a favored team, you go in there, you start

437
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: to have a little success. It's very the other team

438
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,679
Speaker 1: that's struggling or has struggled to win games starts to

439
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: doubt itself pretty quickly. And that goes for the coaching

440
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,120
Speaker 1: staff too. They start to give the guys something else

441
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 1: if you if you have success. Bills never had success,

442
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: sustained success. They had two scoring drives for field goals.

443
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 1: Neither one was like they were like both fifty two yards. Yeah,

444
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 1: I don't think they had a scoring drive over eight yards, right,

445
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:17,679
Speaker 1: So they didn't really put together any offensive success. And

446
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,640
Speaker 1: that you know that never took the Jacksonville Jaguars out

447
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 1: of anything they wanted to do. It kept getting better

448
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 1: and better for those guys up front in Jacksonville, and

449
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 1: they played like it. So yeah, so I and I

450
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: know this too. I mean everybody's like, oh, the play

451
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: calling was terribly I don't buy it. Because when you're

452
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator like Brian day Bole or a defensive

453
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: signal call or like Leslie Frazier, you're the more success

454
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 1: your opponent is having against you, the more limited your

455
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 1: options become, because you're certainly not gonna try and do

456
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,160
Speaker 1: something that they have proven they can't. They can't even

457
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: get there, you know, I mean this off you're gonna

458
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 1: ask this offensive line to do some things that they

459
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: they can't even do what they're you're asking to do now.

460
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: And you know, I think I think they got a

461
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: little bit predictable and they're a little bit limited in

462
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: their offense because they just could not execute certain things

463
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 1: in their offense because of what was going on up

464
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: front and outside too. I guess a little bit, but

465
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 1: I think that was. Yeah, that was not a typical

466
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,920
Speaker 1: offensive performance for the Bills. Obviously, let's go to Curtis

467
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 1: in Rochester next. Curtis, you're on one Bills live. What

468
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 1: do you have for us? Guys? Let's not let's not

469
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 1: lose the focus at the pitcher with five and three,

470
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna get healthy. We played the Jets on it.

471
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 1: Next week, Jacksonville came to play. I give them their

472
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 1: credit but um, we're gonna be six and three the season.

473
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: This is a marathon, not a sprint. I just think

474
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 1: that it was one of those days yesterday. Anybody can

475
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 1: win in the NFL. Yeah, I have a nice day,

476
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 1: all right, Curtis. We'll take it. We'll take your ebra.

477
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 1: I mean there's Yeah, it's a really disappointing loss, one

478
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 1: that nobody expected them to take. But on the schedule.

479
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:13,199
Speaker 1: But don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. I mean,

480
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 1: don't start. Don't blow it all up now today. Um

481
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: well you can't. You're in the middle of a season, right,

482
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,640
Speaker 1: And I was, you know, back in the old days, Um,

483
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 1: I had this conversation. Is funny too, because back in

484
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 1: the old days, and you know, like guys with Chuck

485
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 1: Knox and and you go back, you know, way back

486
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: in the day. Bum Phillips said, they walk in today

487
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: and they cut somebody. Yea to like to drop a

488
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 1: bomb in the locker room. Yeah, like, you know, somebody's

489
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,199
Speaker 1: gonna pay the price for you. Guys. Don't pick it up.

490
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 1: That's the way. That's not the way they do things

491
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: these days in any locker room. Now, certainly there's times

492
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: when they do it for different reasons. But yeah, sending

493
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 1: a message like that is not the leadership that's gonna

494
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: work in the NFL today. But that's kind of the

495
00:26:55,400 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 1: you know, you gotta stay away from, like from chaining

496
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 1: what you're trying to do and trying to get done.

497
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got to the point where you're one

498
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: of the favorites to go to the super Bowl and

499
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 1: some people are picking you to win it. A six

500
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 1: point game against Jacksonville is not a reason to throw

501
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 1: all that to the to the you know, into the

502
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 1: garbage point and start to start to, you know, do

503
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: something else. Let's go to Mike and Buffalo next. Mike,

504
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 1: you're on one Bills Live? What do you have for us? Hi? Guys,

505
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 1: how are you doing good? Listen? I'll be very brief. Um.

506
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 1: The one thing I noticed I hit. I had my

507
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 1: game on DVR yesterday and I watched the very last

508
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: play of the very last possession of the Bills and

509
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: what I what we noticed it or two other guys

510
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: with me, So I'm not crazy to pass you through

511
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: the digs about the fifteen U fifteen yards the guy

512
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: tackled Diggs down before the ball got there. Which was

513
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 1: which was either past interference or holding. I'm not an

514
00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: expert on officiating, but if you look at that play,

515
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 1: Diggs was tackled before the ball got there, and that

516
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 1: might have changed the scope of the game. It might

517
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: not have, but it wasn't called. And let's face if

518
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: the officiating was bad yesterday. But here's one other point

519
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 1: I want to bring out. Our coach has failed those

520
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: players yesterday. McDermot should have got on the field and

521
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: that guy toward Moss's head off and that face mask,

522
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 1: he should have came out at least said something. He

523
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: might not have won, but I think it would have

524
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,880
Speaker 1: shown that they weren't even on the same page as

525
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:37,199
Speaker 1: their players. I mean, which showed me. Of course, if

526
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 1: your coaches are in that position, the players are going

527
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 1: to get in that position and they're going to get complacent.

528
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 1: But look at that last play, last play, last possession.

529
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 1: I thought, exactly, Mike, I know exactly what you mean,

530
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: and you're right, he got there early. But what you'll

531
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 1: see is on plays like that down the field, he's

532
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: got to get their way earlier than he did for

533
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,239
Speaker 1: them to call that. It's got that was more. It

534
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: was too close to being a bang bang play. And

535
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 1: that's what And that's a reel of term that officials

536
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: use when they come out to talk to teams. Let's

537
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 1: say it's a bang bang play. If it's really really close,

538
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: even if the guy gets there early, they're not gonna

539
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 1: throw the flag on it, because it's like they say,

540
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: it's a bang bang play. And it happened so fast.

541
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: Even the Bills players weren't complaining about it because they

542
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: know that's that's kind of the way it is in

543
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: the League's the atmosphere of the league. Certainly, the guy

544
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: got there a hundredth of a second earlier, two hundreds

545
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 1: or three hundreds of a second early, but it was

546
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 1: it's so close, no efficient in and crew is gonna

547
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: call it. I would be more interested to go back

548
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 1: and look at the AL twenty two to see if

549
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 1: there was another option there was. Sanders was standing at

550
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: the sticks on the sidelines. I thought Josh missed him,

551
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 1: didn't take the chance to gun one in there to him.

552
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 1: He was standing right at the sticks. Could have been

553
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: a conversion if he'd thrown it earlier, like just outside

554
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: the hash marks between the hashes and the numbers. He

555
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,719
Speaker 1: had Sanders out there and didn't decided not to throw it. Now,

556
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 1: he might have thought there were too many defenders there

557
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: and they would have broken it and knocked it away.

558
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: But I would like to go back and look at

559
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: the ALL twenty two for that. But that's you know,

560
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 1: like I said, every play in this game was the

561
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 1: difference making play. Some of them neither team could get

562
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: a handle on it and ended up being a draw

563
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: or a first down or whatever. But anybody falls down

564
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 1: or misses a tackle, guy jumps in for a touchdown,

565
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: that's the game. The way this game came out. So

566
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 1: plays like the last fourth and sixteen, I've heard guys

567
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: asking what should they have done on that last punt

568
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: with the bills, you know and stuff that. Listen, that

569
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 1: was that's a last ditch, gasp effort. We've seen one

570
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: of the I've seen one in my thirty four years

571
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: of the team that came through like that, and it

572
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 1: was the home run throwback. I can't remember another play

573
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 1: like that and making it, and there probably is one somewhere,

574
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: but the hail murray for the other team. Those you know,

575
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,719
Speaker 1: they happened once in a blue moon. So that you

576
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 1: know that even that the last punt that the Jaguars

577
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: just had to get off because we didn't have a

578
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: guy deep. The Vikings would argue with you, they've had

579
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 1: five games going the last play and they've lost three

580
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: of them this season, right right, But that's just it though.

581
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 1: It's a last gasp effort. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.

582
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: But if you know, and certainly if it went the

583
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 1: other way, yeah, the game might have been different. All

584
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: of those plays might have been different. All the game

585
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 1: would definitely have been different. The bottom line is this

586
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 1: because he's criticizing the officiating two and the officiating was poor.

587
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: It was not a good job by Land Clarks. Yeah, squad,

588
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 1: I'll say, I'll miss some stuff, and they called some

589
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 1: stuff that looked like phantom type calls in the game

590
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: unless they were continuously misidentifying players, which they were at

591
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 1: the beginning of the game. And don't say coach McDermott

592
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: wasn't into it. He was running hot at the beginning

593
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 1: of that game. I mean just from the TV shots alone.

594
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: He was screaming at officials from the jump. So there,

595
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: he's as intense as they come. I mean, that man's

596
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 1: as serious as a heart attack. So to say sort

597
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: of insinuate that he was not into the game. I

598
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 1: don't know if you could be more wrong. Yeah, the

599
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 1: officials struggle. But I'll tell you this, if the game

600
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: goes the other way, Jacksonville will be saying there saying they.

601
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 1: But my point with the officiating is this, Steve, You're

602
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: gonna get bad calls every absolute It's gonna happen. What

603
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: you have to do is your performance has to be

604
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 1: good enough to enable your team to rise above bad

605
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: calls and still win the football game. And they fell

606
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 1: sorely short of that. Mark Nico and Buffalo Harry and

607
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 1: Canada Hank Tight will get to you after the break.

Speaker 1: After yesterday's disappointing nine to six defeat at the hands

612
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 1: of the previous one win Jaguars now two and six

613
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: on the season after their upset win over the Bills.

614
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 1: Eight oh three, oh five fifty the number to get

615
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 1: on board as we're taking your phone calls for most

616
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 1: of the show today. We will get to some comments

617
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 1: after the game in our around the Locker Rooms segment

618
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: where we'll hear from Josh Allen, Mitch Morse, Jordan Poyer,

619
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 1: and Coach McDermott on their take on the game yesterday.

620
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 1: And Josh is always very self effacing in those situations,

621
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 1: and he was again after this one and was clearly disappointed, exasperated.

622
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 1: But I think at the same time, as Steve pointed

623
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 1: out in the opening segment, the man was under duress

624
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: on almost every single drop back or set in the

625
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 1: shotgun and often had to make plays on the run

626
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: escaping the pocket. What have you? So have to see

627
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 1: where it goes from here waiting patiently on line one,

628
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: I believe is Tom on a sell Tom, what do

629
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 1: you have for us? You're on one Bill's life, right, good,

630
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: good afternoon. I'm sorry, go ahead. Yeah, you know, I'm

631
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 1: a little concerned the Bills seemed to play better and

632
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 1: primetime games and I'm gonna like games. Yeah, but you know,

633
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 1: I just you know, this is supposed to be a

634
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: soft schedule. But like you said, you know, every week

635
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 1: is every week, and I just think it's, uh, we

636
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: gotta pump the brakes. Our offensive line and you know

637
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: we gotta get some home about it. Well, Uh, you know,

638
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: I get it. I understand where you're coming from. Um,

639
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. I kind of feel like, Uh, the

640
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 1: line had a bad day, there's no debating that. And

641
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 1: you know s schedule on paper. But I think if

642
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 1: you asked any of the Bills players last yesterday, they

643
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: wouldn't tell you the Jaguars were soft by any means

644
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: they were coming. And that, Steve, I think is the

645
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: thing that crops up for me and has cropped up

646
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 1: more than once this season, and that is this. They

647
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 1: played a physical defense in Pittsburgh in Week one, they

648
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 1: lost the game. They played a physical defense in weeks five.

649
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 1: In Week five against the Titans, they lost the game.

650
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 1: And yesterday Jacksonville played a physical style on defense. They

651
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:41,280
Speaker 1: lost again. And they've lost close games, you know, Titans

652
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,839
Speaker 1: and Jaguars. Yesterday. Pittsburgh was able to come out on

653
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,720
Speaker 1: top in Week one due mainly to a special team's mistake.

654
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 1: So physical defensive fronts cause problems for this offensive line.

655
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,320
Speaker 1: I think we can safely say that with the evidence

656
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 1: we've been presented with us far this season. Yeah, and

657
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,880
Speaker 1: then and the Bills do seem to Josh, seems too Offensively,

658
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: they seem to play better under the lights. IE get

659
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 1: what you're saying, But I don't know if you make

660
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,839
Speaker 1: generalities under that. Every game is a different game, even

661
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:14,280
Speaker 1: the ones that you play in primetime. So the Bills

662
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 1: have to play better than they have in the last

663
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. The last three of the last four halves,

664
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 1: like I said earlier than three of the last four

665
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: halves they've played this season, I haven't been too good.

666
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 1: They hung a few points on the Dolphins last week

667
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:29,399
Speaker 1: and beat him by fifteen in a game that didn't

668
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 1: feel like they beat him by fifteen. So and then

669
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: they come out and in the other three halves of

670
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:39,919
Speaker 1: football they've scored what nine points total, and three halves

671
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 1: of football it's not good enough Offensively, the defenses kept

672
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: him in that The defense kept him in this Jacksonville

673
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 1: game yesterday, forced to turn over when the Jacksonville Jaguars

674
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 1: were gonna come away with points at least a field goal.

675
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,120
Speaker 1: They got lucky as well when the kid from Jacksonville

676
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 1: missed three consecutive field goals, only one of them which

677
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 1: counted as a miss same kick three times. Um that's

678
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: rough for him, and that's in a in a game

679
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 1: that tight. What do you think the Jaguars are thinking

680
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 1: about today? If that if the Bills score on that

681
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 1: last drive. Yeah, let's go back to the phones and

682
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 1: to EJ and Pittsford. EJ, what do you have for us?

683
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: You're on One Bill's Live. Hi, Chris, Hi, Steve, Big

684
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:25,400
Speaker 1: Fans nice and I just I just wanted to ask

685
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:30,240
Speaker 1: about I think it was player and hides um comments

686
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: last night about being prepared versus being ready and what

687
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 1: it means. You know, at a professional level, you know,

688
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,719
Speaker 1: not being ready or being ready, and I take the

689
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: preparation aspect. You know that's the coach's role, but the

690
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:47,799
Speaker 1: players need to be ready. Just wanted to get your

691
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 1: guys to take on that. Yeah, it's an interesting differential

692
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 1: you make. Whether being prepared mean having all the tools

693
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: it takes to win the game and being ready, I

694
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,560
Speaker 1: get it. That's being Ready's up to the players being

695
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 1: prepared as the coaches. Um, there's no doubt that the

696
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,439
Speaker 1: coaching staff of the Bills know how to put together

697
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,760
Speaker 1: a game. But they've done it a ton of times

698
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 1: and they're gonna be better going forward. But the players

699
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:14,360
Speaker 1: have to kind of look at themselves and say, I

700
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,719
Speaker 1: gotta get ready to play. And it's been said a

701
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: lot about how the Bills came out and didn't match

702
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 1: the intensity of the Jaguars. The Jaguars came out and

703
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:26,120
Speaker 1: they were they were hot, they were sick to death

704
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: of being the one in six Jaguars that nobody thought

705
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 1: was going to do anything. And they set the tone.

706
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,839
Speaker 1: Personal foul penalty. I think the stuff they were doing

707
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 1: against the Trendevious White with the receiving corps and all

708
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 1: that stuff, I think that was I think that was

709
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 1: part of the plan. Yeah, um, see punch them in

710
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:43,839
Speaker 1: the mouth. See if they punched back right, um and

711
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,839
Speaker 1: figuratively speaking, but if you can get Trendevius White could

712
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 1: throw a punch, that's awesome because he'll have to leave

713
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,279
Speaker 1: the game. Awesome, you know, see if you can get

714
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 1: under their skin. And their players were courageous enough to

715
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,760
Speaker 1: go out there and do that. And the Bills didn't

716
00:38:57,800 --> 00:38:59,799
Speaker 1: respond in kind where they you know, kind of held

717
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 1: up to it, but they didn't retaliate. They didn't come

718
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: back at these guys. They did get about. They did

719
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:10,399
Speaker 1: get five personal fouls, but physically as a unit did

720
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 1: not overpower the Jaguars at any at any point. And

721
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,959
Speaker 1: I would venture a guest without you know, really looking,

722
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 1: I don't know that the Jaguars have played that well

723
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: up front defensively all year. Yeah, because they played really

724
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 1: they looked really good. And certainly the Bill's offensive line

725
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 1: is you know, in its fifth incarnation of the starting lineup.

726
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: You know, who knows how, who knew how they were

727
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 1: going to play, even the coaching staff, you know, this

728
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:38,799
Speaker 1: was their best guest at the best five they had

729
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 1: left to put out there, and they're looking for answers

730
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 1: still to provide some contacts for those who did not

731
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 1: see the postgame press conference of Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde,

732
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 1: who sat together at the postgame table, Hide said the

733
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,439
Speaker 1: following This is a direct quote. You've got to come

734
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,919
Speaker 1: every day ready to play. This is the National Football League.

735
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: We understand that doesn't matter what the record indicates every week,

736
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 1: and I don't think we were ready to play today,

737
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 1: That's what Micah Hide said. Jordan Poyer, when asked if

738
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 1: he felt like the team was prepared, Poyer said the

739
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 1: following quote. We felt prepared, had a good week of

740
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 1: practice and felt confident going into the game. They came

741
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 1: out real aggressive. You can tell from the start their

742
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,879
Speaker 1: game plan coming into the game. They're going to play

743
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: physical and they just beat us. End quote. So I

744
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: think they laid it out pretty plain as far as

745
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:35,359
Speaker 1: how they felt about their performance in the game. On Sunday,

746
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,959
Speaker 1: back to the phones and to Jason in Alabama, Jason,

747
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 1: what do you have for us? You're on one Bill's life. Hey, guys,

748
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 1: quickly huge Steve Tasker fan. I'm one of those guys

749
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 1: who almost wanted to going to hunger strike to you

750
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 1: in the in the Pro Bowl, I mean the Hall

751
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 1: of Fame, will you plot? Don't do it? Don't do it?

752
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:57,320
Speaker 1: Jason might lose more weight than your bargain for exactly.

753
00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 1: They might not be getting there. You might there was

754
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 1: no coming back from that one. I love the show, guy,

755
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 1: but my big, my big concern is Josh is a

756
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,640
Speaker 1: bass security. It's been a problem in the pass. It's

757
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 1: a problem presently. You guys think it's continue in the future.

758
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 1: That's a good question. You're right, um say this though.

759
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 1: They depend on Josh to handle the ball, and that

760
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 1: means he runs it, and that he takes off and

761
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 1: runs it, he scrambles with it when he runs the football.

762
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:31,399
Speaker 1: He does have a prepensive to fumble it. We saw

763
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: it yesterday in the in the third and two. We've

764
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 1: seen it when he ends up on last year when

765
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,640
Speaker 1: in the first Jets game here in Buffalo he fumbled

766
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 1: it twice in their end at the end of a

767
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 1: run when he got a first down, fumbled it away.

768
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 1: It's the only thing that kept the Jets in it

769
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 1: early on. It's a problem for Josh once in a while. Um,

770
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 1: I'm not really worried about his interceptions. He's you know,

771
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: the two he threw yesterday were the first two in

772
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: a long time. I mean, um, he had he had

773
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 1: three on the season going into yet esterday and seventeen

774
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 1: throwing touchdown, so he was that's not the issue. But

775
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:06,560
Speaker 1: you're right when he carries the ball, and he does

776
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 1: carry the ball more than some of the other quarterbacks

777
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 1: in the league, maybe not all of them, but he

778
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 1: has a tendency to put the ball on the ground.

779
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,000
Speaker 1: It looks like he wears a rib protector as a quarterback,

780
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 1: which you would understand him to wear. I don't know

781
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 1: if it's a full blown flak jacket which quarterbacks used

782
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 1: to wear in the old days when they had a

783
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,879
Speaker 1: rib injury to protect them. But he has protection through

784
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 1: his rib cage area. I'm wondering if that compromises his

785
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 1: ability to tuck the football and apply pressure properly to

786
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:36,399
Speaker 1: it with his body. What do you think of that? Yeah,

787
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:42,280
Speaker 1: there's yeah, And guys who wear sleeves sometimes have problems

788
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,359
Speaker 1: with holding the ball because the sleeves are slippery. They're

789
00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 1: made of you know, your skin kind of sticks to

790
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 1: the skin of the ball, you know, you know it's

791
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 1: it's it adheres to it better, right. I think it's

792
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 1: a pigskin against human skin, right, But it's if it's

793
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 1: like a silky sleeve or you got whatever else. Yeah,

794
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,279
Speaker 1: it can get slippery sometimes. The gloves that the guys

795
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 1: wear these days um really help. You see guys carrying

796
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,400
Speaker 1: the ball. One handled a lot these days because the

797
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: gloves are so tacky. But he doesn't have one on

798
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 1: his right hand. Josh doesn't have doesn't wear gloves, So

799
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 1: that's the issue right there. He's got big hands. Well, yeah,

800
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:23,320
Speaker 1: but it doesn't matter. Yeah, listen, yeah, I mean he's right, Okay,

801
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 1: I don't I was gonna go down that I was

802
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: gonna down the rabbit hole of footballs, but I'm not

803
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 1: going to. Okay, yeah, it's an issue, and you're right, um,

804
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,280
Speaker 1: but I'll say this when you if there's one hundred

805
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 1: and if there's seventy five offensive plays in the game,

806
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 1: Josh got his hands on the ball seventy five times,

807
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 1: and that's that averages averages. Yeah, all right, break time

808
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 1: for us, Steve and I with more and more of

809
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 1: your phone calls obviously too, so hang tight, we'll get

810
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 1: to you here. On the other side. It's one Bill's

811
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:53,839
Speaker 1: Live presented by Colloid of Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

812
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 1: Arts takes hands it off, Carlos Hide bounces off the

813
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 1: file he has wrapped up, and a bumble A ball

814
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 1: is loosen. It looks like the Bills habit at the

815
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:26,360
Speaker 1: twenty yard line. The Bills habit were covered by Levi Wallace.

816
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:29,600
Speaker 1: That is your Hunt Red Zone play of the game.

00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:34,640
Speaker 1: real estate needs. That was the lone takeaway by the

819
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:38,319
Speaker 1: Bills defense. Took points off the board for the Jaguars

820
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 1: as they were at the Bills twenty yard line on

821
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,719
Speaker 1: that possession. I guess it's pretty fitting that the red

822
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 1: zone play of the game is a defensive play after

823
00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 1: the way things went yesterday in the nine to sixth final.

824
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,600
Speaker 1: Chris Brown Steve Tasker with you here on a Buffalo

825
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 1: Football Monday after the nine six upset victory by Jacksonville

826
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: over Buffalo. We are going to go back to the

827
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 1: phones and Steve, and Orchard Park is up next. Steve,

828
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:05,759
Speaker 1: what do you have for us? You're all one bills live.

829
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 1: I get you, guys real quick that I tired of

830
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 1: hearing about the game. Really, I mean we've we've analyzed

831
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: it from beginning to end. Now it's it's time to

832
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 1: see how they respond, particularly our O line. I think

833
00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 1: they got a lot of pride up there. I'm interested

834
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:27,960
Speaker 1: to see how we regroup, maybe come out on offense

835
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:32,360
Speaker 1: and seeing some things out schematically and give teams different looks,

836
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 1: maybe with some bigger bodies. Well, let's see how we

837
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:37,400
Speaker 1: respond this week. We got punched in a mop Okay,

838
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,440
Speaker 1: we got beat up. It's gonna be more interesting to

839
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 1: see how we play against the Jets, who have had

840
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 1: ten days to prepare for us. And really and truly, Steve,

841
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 1: you could talk about this because I know you lost

842
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,880
Speaker 1: some tough games. You got beaten up pretty good in

843
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:55,400
Speaker 1: Kansas City a few times years ago. But what the

844
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:59,400
Speaker 1: division games now have just become interesting and that should

845
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,359
Speaker 1: hold our week to week for the rest of the year.

846
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:06,640
Speaker 1: For this game, all right, fair enough, thanks Steve. Yeah,

847
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 1: I like all that. You're right. I mean, it's not

848
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 1: about what happened yesterday anymore about what how are they

849
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:13,400
Speaker 1: going to use it to get better? Uh, the coaching

850
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,520
Speaker 1: staff is gonna have a better idea of what the

851
00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:19,280
Speaker 1: Bills can and cannot do offensively and defensively. Their defense

852
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 1: still looks formidable. They're they're they're a saulty bunch um,

853
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 1: but their offense has to match that. Their offense has

854
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:30,719
Speaker 1: to get back to scoring, you know, number one in

855
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:32,880
Speaker 1: the being number one of the league scoring points, and

856
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,959
Speaker 1: they're not. They're not. They weren't far from it. But

857
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,719
Speaker 1: you know, their offensive line, I think is the big

858
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 1: thing that you look at, Sam West, the offensive line,

859
00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 1: and they lost Dawson Knox And during the game yesterday

860
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 1: they lost Zac Moss, who was out snapping Devin Singletary

861
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:50,040
Speaker 1: up to that point in the season um by a

862
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:53,759
Speaker 1: significant margin. And they lose him as well. Um so

863
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,399
Speaker 1: they were. They were down some people offensively. I think

864
00:46:56,440 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: the surprising thing is because they were playing Jack's villain.

865
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,960
Speaker 1: People here in Buffalo don't give Jacksonville much credit. They're

866
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 1: surprised at losing those pieces in their offense. Made the

867
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:11,640
Speaker 1: Bills offense look so pedestrian against a defense that was

868
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:15,799
Speaker 1: ranked as low as the as the Jaguars was. I'm

869
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 1: not that surprised because the Jaguars, they were high, they

870
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:23,840
Speaker 1: were motivated, they were at home, they'd been insulted for

871
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 1: a month and a half and they had a chance

872
00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 1: to say something to the Bills, and they got up

873
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:31,719
Speaker 1: on top of them and never looked back. It was

874
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,920
Speaker 1: still a dog fight even with all of that. But

875
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:39,640
Speaker 1: their defense played really well. But the Bill's defense played

876
00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 1: every bit as good. So you know, that's I think

877
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 1: that's what you saw. I think it is going to

878
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 1: be interesting to see how the Bills coaching staff adjustice

879
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:51,480
Speaker 1: to what they believe they have to work with now

880
00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:54,440
Speaker 1: this week going forward, now, whether the lineup will change

881
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:57,759
Speaker 1: or whatever, but they gotta yeah, there will be some

882
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:02,319
Speaker 1: there'll be some Kennings during the week this well, and

883
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 1: you know, in an effort to look forward. As Steve

884
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 1: suggested from Orchard Park, the caller will hope to find

885
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:12,680
Speaker 1: out more about the availability of Spencer Brown after missing

886
00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:15,360
Speaker 1: each of the last two weeks with his back injury,

887
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 1: and coach McDermott, who set to address the media probably

888
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:23,399
Speaker 1: around four this afternoon, may have an update on him,

889
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,279
Speaker 1: as well as some of the injured players that left

890
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:28,799
Speaker 1: yesterday's game that included Tarren Johnson, Jaquan Johnson, Trey White,

891
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:32,080
Speaker 1: and Zach Moss. So we'll see where it goes from here.

892
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 1: The most troubling thing for me with respect to the

893
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 1: conference standings, and you know you mentioned division game, Steve,

894
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:41,880
Speaker 1: the Bills are four and three with a conference record.

895
00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:45,680
Speaker 1: They are the only team in a current top seven

896
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 1: AFC playoff position with three conference losses. After head to

897
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:55,319
Speaker 1: head that is the next tiebreaker. So you're playing an

898
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 1: AFC opponent, You've got to start racking up wins in

899
00:48:57,640 --> 00:48:59,720
Speaker 1: a hurry here and hope some of the other teams

900
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,520
Speaker 1: come back to you at four and three in the conference,

901
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:04,839
Speaker 1: because you're the only team in playoff position right now

902
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 1: with a four and three conference record. New England is

903
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 1: four and one in the conference, right but they I

904
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,439
Speaker 1: mean you got to you gotta be thinking you've got

905
00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:13,719
Speaker 1: to sweep the division to stay up with, you know,

906
00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:18,160
Speaker 1: the top, you know, with guys like Tennessee, Baltimore, m Yeah,

907
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:21,080
Speaker 1: Buffalo's you know, they've got three losses, not four, and

908
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 1: everybody below the seventh seed has at least four. Um.

909
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:26,680
Speaker 1: Not to say that the Bills won't lose another one

910
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:28,759
Speaker 1: down the road or whatever, but since in Natti's three

911
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 1: and two in the conference exactly so, since the NAT's

912
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 1: three and two, Baltimore's four and two, Pittsburgh three and

913
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:38,719
Speaker 1: three and three, I mean you're Cleveland three and three. Yeah,

914
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 1: so if you're four and three, I mean you gotta

915
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: you gotta get moving there. We've played more games in

916
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:46,839
Speaker 1: the conference than most other teams have except for maybe

917
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:51,920
Speaker 1: well Miami has played that many as well. But um yeah, conference,

918
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,520
Speaker 1: we've played seven. Everybody else played five or six maybe

919
00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 1: some and some yeah, so five or six. So um yeah,

920
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 1: the Bills have got to make some hay though the conference.

921
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:02,200
Speaker 1: If if there, it's going to come down to like

922
00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:06,560
Speaker 1: it looks here, all these teams are. This is a

923
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:08,799
Speaker 1: ton of teams running neck and neck down the stretch. Well,

924
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,360
Speaker 1: and that's what's That's what's so disappointing about yesterday, because

925
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: if you take care of business as you were expected to,

926
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:19,400
Speaker 1: you're not part of this giant jumble that is the

927
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:22,719
Speaker 1: AFC Playoff picture. You're out in front of it, right,

928
00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:25,720
Speaker 1: You've fallen back to it now at five and three.

929
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,160
Speaker 1: That's the troubling thing, and I think that's what's so frustrating.

930
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:30,520
Speaker 1: Four Bills fans. We have to take a break here.

931
00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,320
Speaker 1: Second hour of the show coming your way next, Jack

932
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 1: and Denver Larry on a sale came in Buffalo hang type.

933
00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 1: We will try to get to you here in the

934
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:39,879
Speaker 1: next segment. We'll also be going around in the locker

935
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:41,440
Speaker 1: room to hear from some of the players and from

936
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:45,480
Speaker 1: coach McDermott for their take on the performance. On Sunday,

937
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 1: It's one Bills Live, presented by Kalid to Health. This

938
00:50:47,719 --> 00:51:09,120
Speaker 1: is Buffalo Bills Radio. At a Steve Taster who has

939
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: been all over the fields, kind of unique. He was

940
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 1: kind of a dual role player for him stem at

941
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:20,320
Speaker 1: Steve a blimp. We're not even in the strategyre of

942
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 1: normalcy here our number two here on a Bill's Football Monday.

943
00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:30,200
Speaker 1: We've had better Mondays than this one for sure after

944
00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:33,160
Speaker 1: the nine six loss of the hands of the Jaguars,

945
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:35,839
Speaker 1: but we want to get your thoughts on it. At

946
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:38,200
Speaker 1: eight oh three oh five fifty. We'll get you around

947
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:40,359
Speaker 1: the locker room here shortly. We want to get your

948
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 1: phone calls first. Larry on a Sale has been waiting

949
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 1: the longest, so we'll go to him first. Larry, what

950
00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:46,600
Speaker 1: do you have for us? You're on one bills live

951
00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:51,760
Speaker 1: on Good afternoon guys. Um. Two comments, I guess first

952
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 1: comment is with that first fifteen scripted plays, it's like,

953
00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 1: you know, we don't we don't. I don't feel like

954
00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 1: we random ball at all in those first fifty team

955
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,880
Speaker 1: and it doesn't give the offensive line trying to develop

956
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:06,640
Speaker 1: that cohesion and to actually hit them in the mouth

957
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:09,759
Speaker 1: instead of us being in you know, retreat mode and

958
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 1: just allowing them to come to us. Felt like the

959
00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:15,399
Speaker 1: first couple of drives, you know, we could have could

960
00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:17,360
Speaker 1: have random boat a little bit more, just to assert

961
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 1: the offensive line and get them, get them going down

962
00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:22,880
Speaker 1: here a little bit. And the second comment was I

963
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:26,000
Speaker 1: was watching the Sports Center and he said that every

964
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:29,799
Speaker 1: guest that's been on that Manny Monday Night has gone

965
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:31,759
Speaker 1: on to lose that following week, and I thought that

966
00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 1: was an interesting stat or fact or whatever, because I'm like,

967
00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:37,600
Speaker 1: there's no way we lose to the Drags, and yeah,

968
00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 1: sure enough, yeah, as you know, as the as a

969
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 1: game flow continued and I'm like, no way, and then

970
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,120
Speaker 1: we lose. Yeah, I hang up and listen. I just

971
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:47,759
Speaker 1: wanted to hear you guys take Well, here's the thing,

972
00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:50,040
Speaker 1: Larry Travis Kelson was on in week one and Russell

973
00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 1: Wilson were on week one, both those guys. The Chiefs

974
00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,520
Speaker 1: lost in week two to the Ravens and the Seahawks

975
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:58,640
Speaker 1: lost to the Titans in week two. She's lost by

976
00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:02,040
Speaker 1: one point, FUM loss by three, and then week two,

977
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:07,000
Speaker 1: Rob Grunkowski's on and then Buccaneers lose week three, Week three,

978
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:10,080
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford's on, Rams lose to Cardinals in week four.

979
00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:12,920
Speaker 1: Tom Brady was on in week seven and the Bucks

980
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,439
Speaker 1: lose to week eight to the Saints, and Josh Allen

981
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:17,880
Speaker 1: was on in last week in week eight and they

982
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:21,160
Speaker 1: Bills lose to the Jaguars in week nine. So Travis Kelsey,

983
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, Rob Gronkowski, Matt Stafford, Tom Brady, Josh Allen,

984
00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:27,400
Speaker 1: everybody all those guys lost the next game after the pinning,

985
00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:29,719
Speaker 1: So that's the curse, Larry. You are right. They didn't

986
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:33,360
Speaker 1: run the ball early. Josh scrambled for first downs on

987
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:36,400
Speaker 1: two three downs on two third downs on the opening drive.

988
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:40,320
Speaker 1: They didn't have a designed run play until first and

989
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 1: goal at the three, when Zack Moss went to run

990
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:45,880
Speaker 1: up the middle and got dropped for a three yard loss.

991
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 1: As there was penetration in the backfield, which we saw

992
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:54,879
Speaker 1: all too often. People will still call this show and say,

993
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:57,279
Speaker 1: why don't we just get better running backs. I don't

994
00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 1: think that's going to fix the problem. There's no running

995
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 1: back in the league that's gonna have a good yards

996
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:05,080
Speaker 1: per carry average when there's a defender in the backfield

997
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 1: right after he gets handed the ball. I mean, at

998
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:09,360
Speaker 1: least let the back get to the line of scrimmage,

999
00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:12,680
Speaker 1: and all too often that is not happening. He's got

1000
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,479
Speaker 1: a defender to allude before he can get to the line.

1001
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:17,640
Speaker 1: Forget about the designated hole he's supposed to hit on

1002
00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:22,120
Speaker 1: the play, and we saw that all too often yesterday. Yeah,

1003
00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:24,480
Speaker 1: and I get the fact that I don't know whether

1004
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:26,320
Speaker 1: Larry is an old offensive lineman or not. But we

1005
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 1: have Ruben Brown on, he talked to him. We'll have

1006
00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:30,160
Speaker 1: Eric Wood on at two o'clock today. We're gonna ask

1007
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 1: him as well. All the offensive lineman say, hey, if

1008
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:33,880
Speaker 1: he wants to run the ball, well, you got to

1009
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,320
Speaker 1: give us some chances to get it going. The problem

1010
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 1: is this. You got the best, one of the best

1011
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:42,840
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the league back there, and a wide receiver

1012
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 1: corps like you do. Nobody wants to go run, run, run,

1013
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:53,279
Speaker 1: three and out and waste a series. And nobody even

1014
00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:56,400
Speaker 1: wants to go pass run, run and go three and

1015
00:54:56,480 --> 00:55:02,080
Speaker 1: out or pass pass run and three and out. They

1016
00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:04,280
Speaker 1: want to stay on the field, and right now, throwing

1017
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:05,880
Speaker 1: the football gives you the best chance to do that

1018
00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:10,160
Speaker 1: with this group. But I get it. The question is

1019
00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 1: how many how long is it gonna take you to

1020
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:15,759
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? Run the ball? You know,

1021
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:20,560
Speaker 1: fifty percent of the time to me, you get you

1022
00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:23,480
Speaker 1: get fired for that and this And with this offense

1023
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:26,720
Speaker 1: and this crew, they're running the ball forty three percent

1024
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:28,839
Speaker 1: of the time, throwing it fifty seven percent of the time.

1025
00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:31,239
Speaker 1: At least that's what it was going going into the game.

1026
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:34,920
Speaker 1: Were you gonna run it more? That's that's crazy. You're

1027
00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:37,239
Speaker 1: putting up more points going into the light yesterday. You're

1028
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:39,680
Speaker 1: putting up more points than any team in the league,

1029
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:44,040
Speaker 1: and you want to like not do that. So and

1030
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,279
Speaker 1: I understand it. You know, makes people feel good and

1031
00:55:47,440 --> 00:55:49,160
Speaker 1: secure when they can run the ball at will and

1032
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:51,440
Speaker 1: they can end up with a second and second and

1033
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:54,360
Speaker 1: three all the time, it's not gonna happen. The Bills

1034
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:56,960
Speaker 1: were second and nine second and ten second and seven

1035
00:55:57,040 --> 00:56:00,640
Speaker 1: second a lot when they run the football first down

1036
00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:05,200
Speaker 1: and their third and whatever. You know, they're just not

1037
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:10,080
Speaker 1: productive enough in the running game consistently enough. So that

1038
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 1: is the crux of the problem. All right, back to

1039
00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:14,880
Speaker 1: the phones and to Jack in Denver, Jack, what do

1040
00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:17,439
Speaker 1: you have for us? You're on one Bill's life. Yeah,

1041
00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:22,719
Speaker 1: good afternoon. Um. I guess the predictability of the offense,

1042
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:26,680
Speaker 1: especially these last two games, but I've kind of noticed

1043
00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:30,560
Speaker 1: a little bit of a pattern almost all year. I

1044
00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:34,919
Speaker 1: just I just wish that the creativity. And I don't

1045
00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:37,320
Speaker 1: know if they're holding anything back. I've even you know,

1046
00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:39,640
Speaker 1: I've heard a few people saying, well, maybe they're saving

1047
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:44,440
Speaker 1: some stuff for later on in the year. But but

1048
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:48,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. To me, the creativity just int there

1049
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,680
Speaker 1: and I don't and I don't know if you remember, Steve,

1050
00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:54,759
Speaker 1: it might have been your your most receiving yard game

1051
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:58,080
Speaker 1: as a bill. I believe it was against Miami and

1052
00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:01,480
Speaker 1: they ran and that game and was perfect that day.

1053
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:06,200
Speaker 1: You probably had about four screen passes or right there

1054
00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:10,759
Speaker 1: on the line type passes, and Buffalo just looks so

1055
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:13,480
Speaker 1: good on that day because of the creativity. And I

1056
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:16,480
Speaker 1: don't know if you remember that day, but your passing

1057
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:20,400
Speaker 1: yards on that game probably were like a career high

1058
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 1: for you, and they were all really clever type pass plays.

1059
00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:28,520
Speaker 1: And that brings me to the third point, and that's

1060
00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:32,600
Speaker 1: the no slam pantterns. Where are the slam panterns and

1061
00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:35,320
Speaker 1: the crossing pantterns. A lot of these patterns that are

1062
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:39,880
Speaker 1: being run are where the guys already stopped. They don't

1063
00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:42,160
Speaker 1: have any plays where the guy is on the move.

1064
00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:45,160
Speaker 1: And in today's football, with the middle being open as

1065
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,560
Speaker 1: much as it is and the receiver being favored in

1066
00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:50,880
Speaker 1: a lot of these situations, they need to get people

1067
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:56,240
Speaker 1: more on the move. What do we say to that, Steve, Well, yeah,

1068
00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:58,360
Speaker 1: I mean I can get behind all that if it

1069
00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:01,040
Speaker 1: works when you run it and I don't. I gotta

1070
00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:02,560
Speaker 1: be honest with you. I don't remember the Jet game.

1071
00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 1: It's a long time ago. I had a couple of

1072
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 1: games against the Jets. Yeah, but and I get it too.

1073
00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:11,000
Speaker 1: You want to see some creativity and some different things

1074
00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:14,480
Speaker 1: because it's the simple fact that matter is this, Josh

1075
00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:18,160
Speaker 1: is getting pressured. Only Sam Darneld for Caroline, is getting

1076
00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:21,000
Speaker 1: pressured more, has been pressured more this year than Josh.

1077
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:27,280
Speaker 1: It's a problem, and I don't know that play design

1078
00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:31,000
Speaker 1: is gonna fix it. You know, However, you can have

1079
00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:35,840
Speaker 1: Steph Diggs, Manuel Sanders, Gabe Davis, Cole Beasley, you can

1080
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,400
Speaker 1: have all those guys running circles around everybody back there.

1081
00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:40,760
Speaker 1: But if Josh is under pressure, it ain't gonna matter.

1082
00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:46,600
Speaker 1: So that's you know, I don't know that more creativity

1083
00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:53,400
Speaker 1: in the passing game is the is the is the answer? Yeah,

1084
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:55,360
Speaker 1: And there were a lot of times Josh was making

1085
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:58,080
Speaker 1: something out of nothing because of the pressure. I mean,

1086
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:01,640
Speaker 1: I know the final stat line, say, you know, sacked

1087
00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:03,920
Speaker 1: four times, hit eight times. It could have been a

1088
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:07,160
Speaker 1: lot more than that. If Josh doesn't have the stability

1089
00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:09,440
Speaker 1: that he does. Teams are seeing this when Josh on

1090
00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:12,120
Speaker 1: a few times. When Josh does have time when he's

1091
00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:17,080
Speaker 1: not moving around, you can't defend him. Teams know that,

1092
00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 1: and they're doing everything they can to get pressure on him.

1093
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:22,360
Speaker 1: Right now. The big difference right down to sending more

1094
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:25,040
Speaker 1: guys than you have blockers. A big difference. Yesterday though

1095
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:30,080
Speaker 1: was four. We're beating five with far too great a frequency.

1096
00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:33,080
Speaker 1: That is going to be something that happens constantly throughout

1097
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:36,160
Speaker 1: the remainder of this season, because when Josh has time

1098
00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 1: to throw it, teams have no defense for it. He

1099
00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:41,760
Speaker 1: carves them up and they know it. So they're going

1100
00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:44,000
Speaker 1: to do everything they can to get at him. And

1101
00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:46,480
Speaker 1: that puts pressure on your old line. Yeah, an old

1102
00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:49,880
Speaker 1: line that has two of its best players out right. Now,

1103
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 1: back to the phones and to Ron and Buffalo. Ron,

1104
00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:54,000
Speaker 1: what do you have for us? You're on one Bill's life.

1105
00:59:55,840 --> 00:59:57,880
Speaker 1: You probably don't remember, but I used to be one

1106
00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:00,840
Speaker 1: of primary printers for the Bills one the Super Bowls

1107
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,280
Speaker 1: and your team's done a lot of time out to

1108
01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:06,040
Speaker 1: the stadium and working with Danny Lynch and Scott and

1109
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:10,400
Speaker 1: other guys. I was what I see, and it goes

1110
01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:14,840
Speaker 1: beyond just Buffalo. We played lousy yesterday nobody can accept

1111
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:17,920
Speaker 1: the fact that, in Josh, even a minute, we just

1112
01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:20,560
Speaker 1: played lousy. Hey, guys, hold up to it. We screwed up.

1113
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:23,320
Speaker 1: We were bad. Now that's an attitude. Now you just

1114
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:26,280
Speaker 1: said it. We got the talent, we got the people,

1115
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:29,439
Speaker 1: they can get the job done. But yesterday turned into

1116
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:33,160
Speaker 1: an attitude situation. I'd like to observe watching a lot

1117
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:36,320
Speaker 1: of the other games, and what I've seen week after week,

1118
01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:39,960
Speaker 1: there's a third team on the field every week, guys,

1119
01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:42,880
Speaker 1: And this is the elephant in the room. The third

1120
01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:46,080
Speaker 1: team is these guys and stripes, and I have seen

1121
01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:50,000
Speaker 1: more teams have more attitude shifts and the way the

1122
01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:52,760
Speaker 1: game is being played or whether the team has got

1123
01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:56,200
Speaker 1: the momentum, is that they sucking at these roughies are

1124
01:00:56,240 --> 01:00:59,320
Speaker 1: sucking the attitude out of our teams. They did at

1125
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 1: fourth are personal files and one and one quarter in

1126
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 1: a game. Don't tell me they're not targeting me and

1127
01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:09,600
Speaker 1: targeting us. They are. It's a fact. And where we

1128
01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:12,320
Speaker 1: played lousy, played lousy. Then you got to make up

1129
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:15,400
Speaker 1: with that too. Guys. We've got to be at best.

1130
01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:18,520
Speaker 1: We can't afford to be schmucky. We've got to be

1131
01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:20,800
Speaker 1: at top of it. But when you take, when you

1132
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:23,880
Speaker 1: take the heart on a team early. Now you got

1133
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:27,200
Speaker 1: the reasons. Caroline is no more qualified to be on

1134
01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:30,160
Speaker 1: the field of Buffalo Bills on a normal day. You

1135
01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:32,960
Speaker 1: both know that, you both admitted it already. The fact

1136
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:35,280
Speaker 1: of the matter is we had a crappy day, We

1137
01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:38,640
Speaker 1: had a crappy attitude, and we gave into the the

1138
01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:43,240
Speaker 1: people that they were. They were frustrated, they were there

1139
01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:46,000
Speaker 1: was calls made yesterday. You could have called it on

1140
01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 1: every single down and every game and every play, every

1141
01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:50,640
Speaker 1: team in the league over and Oregon, or you could

1142
01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:53,520
Speaker 1: let them go. And every time we moved the ball,

1143
01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:56,960
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe how many times one more time, one

1144
01:01:57,040 --> 01:01:59,760
Speaker 1: more time we were moving the ball, and they sucked

1145
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 1: it up out of us, guys. And that's what I see.

1146
01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:04,440
Speaker 1: And that's why I have a real high level of

1147
01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:07,800
Speaker 1: frustration with NFL right now, because I think they're affecting

1148
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:11,160
Speaker 1: the game. And that's just my opinion. But you know,

1149
01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:12,840
Speaker 1: it took me out of the game for about five

1150
01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,200
Speaker 1: years with this kind of stuff going on, and it's

1151
01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 1: game after game after game, not just Buffalo all right, Ron,

1152
01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:21,880
Speaker 1: thanks for the call. I mean, you can you can

1153
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:25,480
Speaker 1: complain back away from the ledge roun. You can. You

1154
01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:28,600
Speaker 1: can complain about the officiating all you want. I think

1155
01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 1: you have to go into a game with the mindset

1156
01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:34,520
Speaker 1: that it's not going to be perfect. At the end

1157
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:36,760
Speaker 1: of the day, they're human beings trying to officiate a

1158
01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:40,400
Speaker 1: game that moves at warp speed and many instances make

1159
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:43,800
Speaker 1: a judgment call. Did that crew get a lot wrong yesterday?

1160
01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:46,480
Speaker 1: Did they have a rough day? One hundred percent? One

1161
01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:52,200
Speaker 1: hundred percent had a rough day. But if your team

1162
01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:59,680
Speaker 1: isn't mentally tough enough to overcome bad calls that go

1163
01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:04,840
Speaker 1: against you, you've got a problem. Number One, you have

1164
01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:08,120
Speaker 1: to play well enough to overcome the bad calls that

1165
01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:13,479
Speaker 1: are inevitably coming in every single game. It is going

1166
01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:18,480
Speaker 1: to happen. It is almost a certainty. Second, you have

1167
01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:23,320
Speaker 1: to be mentally tough enough to look past that and say, hey, look,

1168
01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:27,280
Speaker 1: we got to make our own breaks today. So that's

1169
01:03:27,280 --> 01:03:29,800
Speaker 1: what it comes down to as far as I'm concerned. Yeah,

1170
01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:31,480
Speaker 1: and I thought, you know that we just showed a

1171
01:03:31,600 --> 01:03:35,000
Speaker 1: highlight of Tremaine Edmonds. I didn't think that was a penalty.

1172
01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:39,080
Speaker 1: He didn't fall on on Trevor Lawrence, none of that,

1173
01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:42,440
Speaker 1: And I actually usually never get in this conversation. I

1174
01:03:42,520 --> 01:03:46,960
Speaker 1: tweeted out an example. Some guy put out a tweet

1175
01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:49,280
Speaker 1: of and it was it was a false start on

1176
01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:52,400
Speaker 1: like butker who and he just kind of twitt kind

1177
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:55,360
Speaker 1: of just barely flinched, and it caused the guy to jump.

1178
01:03:55,400 --> 01:03:58,240
Speaker 1: And I mean, even in slow motion it's hard to see, right,

1179
01:03:58,600 --> 01:04:01,040
Speaker 1: and certainly a fast motion it's hard to see. But

1180
01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 1: they called it and it was right, it was a

1181
01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:06,320
Speaker 1: it was a false start. Then the other way, both

1182
01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:09,800
Speaker 1: the right guard and right tackle are a full step

1183
01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:11,640
Speaker 1: out of their stands and the ball is still on

1184
01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:14,320
Speaker 1: the ground for the Jaguars and there's no call there.

1185
01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:17,200
Speaker 1: So well that it's frustrated. The Bills also had a

1186
01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:18,920
Speaker 1: fumble at the very end of the game and shouldn't

1187
01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:21,520
Speaker 1: have had a fourth down play. That's a turnover, that's right.

1188
01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:24,600
Speaker 1: They don't call that either, Josh, unless they called him

1189
01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:27,640
Speaker 1: in the grass going backwards, I don't think, which they didn't. Yeah,

1190
01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:30,760
Speaker 1: they said that wasn't a fumble, and if they didn't

1191
01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:33,000
Speaker 1: call it into grass, it was a fumble, and the

1192
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:35,320
Speaker 1: Bills get a fourth down play, you know, because of it.

1193
01:04:36,080 --> 01:04:40,040
Speaker 1: So it goes both ways. Yeah, the officials yesterday? Yeah,

1194
01:04:40,040 --> 01:04:42,960
Speaker 1: I mean, could you not tell? Like from the opening series,

1195
01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:47,520
Speaker 1: it was day they couldn't get offense ride or defense ride.

1196
01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:49,920
Speaker 1: The numbers were all messed. They could, man, it was

1197
01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:53,880
Speaker 1: an absolute I say, don't know what the personal foul

1198
01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:55,720
Speaker 1: on A J. Klein was on the special teams. I

1199
01:04:55,800 --> 01:04:57,880
Speaker 1: know he got his legs tangled up with the other guy.

1200
01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:01,040
Speaker 1: Would you call it unnecessary toughness? Like what the I

1201
01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:03,959
Speaker 1: don't know. I can only guess they got the number

1202
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:06,479
Speaker 1: wrong again, right, because I didn't see A J. Klein

1203
01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:10,080
Speaker 1: doing anything that was deserving of a personal foul? Did

1204
01:05:10,120 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 1: Jim in North? John Alan? Do we go? Jim? What

1205
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:14,160
Speaker 1: do you have for us? You're on one Bill's life. Yeah, guys,

1206
01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna real quick. I'm gonna tell you about the problem,

1207
01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:19,040
Speaker 1: and then I'm gonna give you my solution to the problem.

1208
01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:24,760
Speaker 1: What we have right now, there's a franchise quarterback and

1209
01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:27,840
Speaker 1: we've got the Sisters a Charity block in form. In fact,

1210
01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:30,520
Speaker 1: I don't even think this offensive line could block the

1211
01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:33,640
Speaker 1: Sisters of Charity. To be honest with you, now here's

1212
01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:38,080
Speaker 1: the solution. Who's ever in charge of personnel has got

1213
01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:41,400
Speaker 1: to check the waiver wire and check the scouting reports

1214
01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:45,280
Speaker 1: of offensive linemen on other teams practice squads, because if

1215
01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:49,080
Speaker 1: we could get maybe three offensive linemen in here that

1216
01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:53,280
Speaker 1: could take the blocking just one or two rungs up

1217
01:05:53,320 --> 01:05:56,800
Speaker 1: the ladder, because Josh Ellen is so strong and athletic,

1218
01:05:57,160 --> 01:06:00,280
Speaker 1: that might be enough where we could win close games.

1219
01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:05,040
Speaker 1: We only need to improve the offensive a performance of

1220
01:06:05,080 --> 01:06:08,360
Speaker 1: our offensive line, and also get one or two running

1221
01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 1: backs in here, somebody that might fit the bill of

1222
01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:14,760
Speaker 1: an old fashioned kind of like fullback, like Cookie Gilchrist.

1223
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,280
Speaker 1: If we could do that, we could make a run

1224
01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:21,200
Speaker 1: at the super Bowl this season. But these personnel changes,

1225
01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:25,600
Speaker 1: they have to be done immediately. Jim, what do you

1226
01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:27,360
Speaker 1: think about the guys that are hurt? If we get

1227
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:29,840
Speaker 1: Spencer Brown back on the field and Feliciano back on

1228
01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:32,360
Speaker 1: the field, were they they were storing thirty four points

1229
01:06:32,360 --> 01:06:35,360
Speaker 1: a game with those two guys in the lineup. Yeah, okay,

1230
01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:38,880
Speaker 1: that's a that's a legitimate point. But I want to

1231
01:06:38,920 --> 01:06:41,920
Speaker 1: say something about Spencer Brown. He's a rookie. He's lifting

1232
01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:44,440
Speaker 1: weights in the weight room, and I am ninety some

1233
01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:47,480
Speaker 1: percent sure that he injured his back because he was

1234
01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:49,600
Speaker 1: doing I work out. By the way, so I know

1235
01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:52,080
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. He would had too much weight

1236
01:06:52,160 --> 01:06:55,040
Speaker 1: on the bar when he was bench president, he arched

1237
01:06:55,120 --> 01:07:03,240
Speaker 1: his back. Where's the strength and conditioning coach super Room? Well,

1238
01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:06,480
Speaker 1: yeah it was said. I mean m McDermott said it

1239
01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:10,120
Speaker 1: was a training injury, no question. Yeah, too much weight

1240
01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:16,160
Speaker 1: on the bar. Well, I don't know. I wasn't there, Okay, Yeah, yeah,

1241
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:17,480
Speaker 1: I mean, but here's the thing. I mean, they're not

1242
01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:19,920
Speaker 1: doing anything differently than anybody else doesn't do. I mean,

1243
01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:22,960
Speaker 1: the NFL is a different joint than it was when

1244
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:26,960
Speaker 1: I we lifted during the season two. Um. And you know,

1245
01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:29,000
Speaker 1: sometimes when you don't warm up right, or you need

1246
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:30,600
Speaker 1: to let extra warming up, or you just kind of

1247
01:07:30,640 --> 01:07:32,320
Speaker 1: said I'm gonna get through this. I'm gonna kind of

1248
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:34,520
Speaker 1: bear through it. You get injured, I get it. Um.

1249
01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:37,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, when you train and you have to train

1250
01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:41,000
Speaker 1: hard to stay ready to play, it is a risk.

1251
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:44,640
Speaker 1: But yeah, you're right, it is. Unfortunately, got hurt lifting

1252
01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:48,240
Speaker 1: or training or doing whatever it was. Um, you know

1253
01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:50,600
Speaker 1: that set him on the sidelines for two games so far.

1254
01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:52,520
Speaker 1: I also hate to tell you, I think it's going

1255
01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:55,920
Speaker 1: to be very hard to find players that you believe

1256
01:07:56,080 --> 01:07:59,000
Speaker 1: could be better. And the guys the Bills have already

1257
01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:01,880
Speaker 1: for their offensive on other teams practice squads. There's a

1258
01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:05,600
Speaker 1: reason they're on practice squads. Number one. Number two, the

1259
01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:08,680
Speaker 1: thought of bringing in three new linemen off practice squads

1260
01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:11,040
Speaker 1: around the league, plugging them into your starting lineup and

1261
01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:13,240
Speaker 1: expecting it to work like a well oiled machine, and

1262
01:08:13,360 --> 01:08:16,320
Speaker 1: games you absolutely have to win going forward. That's not

1263
01:08:16,400 --> 01:08:19,280
Speaker 1: a recipe for success either, right, And I see, you know,

1264
01:08:19,320 --> 01:08:21,599
Speaker 1: you could go out look at the all the offensive

1265
01:08:21,640 --> 01:08:23,760
Speaker 1: lines in the National Football League and say go to

1266
01:08:24,120 --> 01:08:27,599
Speaker 1: you know, wherever you name your team, Dallas, the Giants, whoever,

1267
01:08:27,640 --> 01:08:31,360
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville or whoever. You know, you know, the Detroit Lions,

1268
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:34,519
Speaker 1: who cares and you think they've got a really good

1269
01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:37,360
Speaker 1: offensive line. You think, well, they're guys that are backing

1270
01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:39,519
Speaker 1: those guys up. It takes more to get on the

1271
01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:42,320
Speaker 1: field for that team. So maybe their practice squad guys

1272
01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:44,360
Speaker 1: are really good and we just can't find out because

1273
01:08:44,880 --> 01:08:46,840
Speaker 1: so you go pirate those guys and then you find

1274
01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:49,920
Speaker 1: out you know, they stink too. And now the guy

1275
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:52,080
Speaker 1: that you've been coaching for six months that you had

1276
01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 1: to release off your practice squad to make room for him,

1277
01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:57,400
Speaker 1: is out there. Now he's on your next week's opponents roster.

1278
01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:00,560
Speaker 1: So there you go. I mean, yeah, I get it.

1279
01:09:01,040 --> 01:09:03,800
Speaker 1: Better players make you good, no question. Better players make

1280
01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:09,439
Speaker 1: you better. But it's those problems are hard to solve

1281
01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:11,479
Speaker 1: on a fly like this. Yeah, in the middle of

1282
01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:14,720
Speaker 1: the season. So eight O three five fifty the number.

1283
01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:17,240
Speaker 1: Get on board. Let's go to TJ in Connecticut. TJ.

1284
01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:20,840
Speaker 1: What do you have for us here on One Bill's Life? Hi, guys,

1285
01:09:20,960 --> 01:09:24,439
Speaker 1: A great discussion here, um piggybacking on the guy who

1286
01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:28,280
Speaker 1: talked about movement of the receivers and throwing in movement

1287
01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:33,680
Speaker 1: both of you, guys. I don't understand why there's not

1288
01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:38,559
Speaker 1: an adjustment. Okay, the offensive line is getting killed. Guys

1289
01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:42,840
Speaker 1: are coming in free and Josh has no time. Why

1290
01:09:42,960 --> 01:09:47,040
Speaker 1: don't they make an adjustment either either or both. Josh

1291
01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:51,000
Speaker 1: under center, two step drop short passes, shorten the routes.

1292
01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:56,200
Speaker 1: The essence of a West Coast offense, or a variation

1293
01:09:56,280 --> 01:10:01,360
Speaker 1: of that is, roll Josh out specifically towards the right

1294
01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:03,880
Speaker 1: or left side, which whichever is given the pressure because

1295
01:10:04,240 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 1: Josh is faster than these defensive ends. So I don't

1296
01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:14,639
Speaker 1: understand you. Take a look at the step digs touchdown

1297
01:10:14,680 --> 01:10:18,000
Speaker 1: against Miami. That seemed to be an adjustment. That was

1298
01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:20,760
Speaker 1: a route which I was amazed he was that far

1299
01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:23,200
Speaker 1: down the field because I don't think I think Josh

1300
01:10:23,360 --> 01:10:26,680
Speaker 1: was under center, but he zipped it in there touchdown,

1301
01:10:27,160 --> 01:10:28,960
Speaker 1: you know. And those are the kind of plays that

1302
01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:31,439
Speaker 1: I think the gentleman before on the phone was asking.

1303
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:33,880
Speaker 1: And that's the one that I'm scratching my head watching

1304
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:36,439
Speaker 1: the game, wondering why not, why don't they do this?

1305
01:10:36,520 --> 01:10:39,160
Speaker 1: Why don't they put Josh under center? Two step drop.

1306
01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:42,599
Speaker 1: I don't care if you have Superman on the defensive line,

1307
01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:45,840
Speaker 1: you can't touch a guy who's that quick and throws

1308
01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:49,720
Speaker 1: the ball that accurately and quickly. So I'd love to

1309
01:10:49,800 --> 01:10:51,800
Speaker 1: hear your thoughts on that. Thank you, all right, thanks

1310
01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:53,800
Speaker 1: t J. And I'll say this, Yeah, that would work

1311
01:10:53,840 --> 01:10:55,960
Speaker 1: in some situations, no question about it. But there's no

1312
01:10:56,120 --> 01:10:58,840
Speaker 1: magic wand that you can go to and start doing

1313
01:10:58,960 --> 01:11:01,640
Speaker 1: that is going to be good for more than a

1314
01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:04,920
Speaker 1: couple of plays. Certainly, you're you're right, they could put

1315
01:11:04,960 --> 01:11:08,200
Speaker 1: him under center and work on a quick release, timing

1316
01:11:08,320 --> 01:11:16,080
Speaker 1: route kind of offense. But what happens is this when

1317
01:11:16,160 --> 01:11:20,919
Speaker 1: you get limited like that, when your offensive line struggles

1318
01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:22,439
Speaker 1: and you think you're gonna fix it this way and

1319
01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:25,880
Speaker 1: this way only, you become really predictable, really quickly, and

1320
01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:27,680
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're there's nowhere to throw it

1321
01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:30,360
Speaker 1: because the defensive backs don't backpedal at the snap because

1322
01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:33,040
Speaker 1: they know you're gonna stop after one step or two

1323
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:36,759
Speaker 1: steps or three step, drop and sling it. So there's

1324
01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:43,519
Speaker 1: no magic wand that can make your players better than

1325
01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:50,640
Speaker 1: there's there's only ways to adjust to your deficiencies or

1326
01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:54,920
Speaker 1: your strengths. And if your strengths can't flex because of

1327
01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:57,519
Speaker 1: your deficiencies, you're in some problems. And that's what the

1328
01:11:57,560 --> 01:12:00,559
Speaker 1: Bills ran into yesterday. Yeah, Josh Allen couldn't Alex because

1329
01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:03,479
Speaker 1: he was under Josh couldn't flex, Steph Diggs couldn't flex.

1330
01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:07,320
Speaker 1: M Emmanuel Sanders couldn't call Beasley. I mean they were

1331
01:12:07,439 --> 01:12:09,400
Speaker 1: they had. You know, when your strength is the guy's

1332
01:12:09,479 --> 01:12:12,200
Speaker 1: outside and the ball can't get out of the pocket

1333
01:12:12,320 --> 01:12:16,840
Speaker 1: because your quarterback is under dress, you can't flex. Yeah,

1334
01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:20,479
Speaker 1: you can't score thirty four points. All right, break time

1335
01:12:20,560 --> 01:12:22,599
Speaker 1: for us here. When we come back, we'll go around

1336
01:12:22,680 --> 01:12:27,200
Speaker 1: the locker room here from Josh Allen, Mitch Morse, Jordan Poyer,

1337
01:12:27,439 --> 01:12:29,960
Speaker 1: Coach McDermott. We'll get to that when we return here

1338
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:31,880
Speaker 1: on one Bill's Line, presented by Kalid of Health, It's

1339
01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:51,800
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill's Radio all Right. Time for Around the Locker Room,

1340
01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:56,519
Speaker 1: presented by Connect Life, your Blood and organ Donor Network.

1341
01:12:56,960 --> 01:13:00,280
Speaker 1: We begin with Josh Allen, who was visibly disappoint pointed

1342
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:03,240
Speaker 1: with the performance in Sunday's game, the nine and six

1343
01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:07,360
Speaker 1: loss to the Jaguars. And here was his assessment of

1344
01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:12,840
Speaker 1: the offensive struggles in the game on Sunday decision making, Um,

1345
01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:15,800
Speaker 1: you know, trying to get our guys going early on

1346
01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:20,439
Speaker 1: fin final checkdowns, early on. Um. But again, there's a

1347
01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:22,800
Speaker 1: lot of just little things that added up throughout the

1348
01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:25,360
Speaker 1: game that kind of put us behind where we wanted

1349
01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:28,280
Speaker 1: to be. Stalled. A couple of tribes, Um, you know,

1350
01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:30,200
Speaker 1: they had a couple of tips that that were big

1351
01:13:30,280 --> 01:13:33,000
Speaker 1: and third on third downs and um, you know they

1352
01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:35,040
Speaker 1: hats off to them. They played hard. It's hard to

1353
01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:37,400
Speaker 1: win football games no matter who you play. We're all

1354
01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:40,200
Speaker 1: grown men. Um, we all get paid to play this game.

1355
01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:43,960
Speaker 1: You know, they came out they wanted it more So,

1356
01:13:44,360 --> 01:13:47,400
Speaker 1: he's not the only guy that said that. Um, Jordan

1357
01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:49,880
Speaker 1: Porter said they beat us. They wanted to come out

1358
01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:51,880
Speaker 1: and play a physical style and they beat us, and

1359
01:13:52,400 --> 01:13:56,160
Speaker 1: Josh pretty much second in that motion. Uh. Mitch Morse

1360
01:13:56,800 --> 01:14:00,120
Speaker 1: commented on the offensive struggles to his credit, you know,

1361
01:14:00,240 --> 01:14:02,400
Speaker 1: stood up face the music after a rough day for

1362
01:14:02,479 --> 01:14:07,799
Speaker 1: the offensive line. Here was Mitch's take on the offensive

1363
01:14:07,800 --> 01:14:11,400
Speaker 1: struggles that they experienced out there on the field. Sometimes

1364
01:14:11,479 --> 01:14:14,599
Speaker 1: we just got outplayed. Sometimes it was the right call

1365
01:14:14,680 --> 01:14:20,599
Speaker 1: against the right play we had. It was just kind

1366
01:14:20,640 --> 01:14:22,840
Speaker 1: of an accumulation of a lot of stuff which made

1367
01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:26,760
Speaker 1: it very frustrating. But all you can do getting games

1368
01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:30,720
Speaker 1: like this, all you can do is point inwards, looking intrinsically.

1369
01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:35,000
Speaker 1: It's what professionals do, and it's the hardest thing to do.

1370
01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:37,679
Speaker 1: It's the hardest thing to do is look at yourself

1371
01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:40,080
Speaker 1: and I think as an offense, we have to do that,

1372
01:14:40,160 --> 01:14:43,639
Speaker 1: each and every one of us and go from there.

1373
01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:46,960
Speaker 1: Understand that, you know, we have a lot of we

1374
01:14:47,240 --> 01:14:50,240
Speaker 1: got to figure some stuff out playing simple sense of

1375
01:14:50,360 --> 01:14:53,200
Speaker 1: urgency now, so we'll go from there. The only point

1376
01:14:54,520 --> 01:14:59,320
Speaker 1: to yourself as a player, as a professional, to do

1377
01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:04,280
Speaker 1: the best you can when your numbers called um, when

1378
01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:06,960
Speaker 1: the for so fair offensive line, our protection, you know,

1379
01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:10,360
Speaker 1: our numbers called for protection, whether it's communication, whether it's

1380
01:15:10,360 --> 01:15:14,400
Speaker 1: just getting the job done. And yeah, urgency is just

1381
01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:17,280
Speaker 1: putting points on the board as an offense. And uh,

1382
01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:20,160
Speaker 1: you know, we would kind of matriculate the ball down

1383
01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:23,479
Speaker 1: the field and then find a way to shoot ourselves

1384
01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:27,320
Speaker 1: in the foot. So for us, it'll be doing a

1385
01:15:27,400 --> 01:15:29,800
Speaker 1: lot done some soul searching. As cliche as it is

1386
01:15:29,960 --> 01:15:32,840
Speaker 1: and as frustrating as that is, there's no question there

1387
01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:34,840
Speaker 1: were self inflicted wounds in that game. I mean, it

1388
01:15:34,960 --> 01:15:39,680
Speaker 1: wasn't just poor execution. There was a number of penalties

1389
01:15:39,760 --> 01:15:43,920
Speaker 1: that negated gains on offense and some good plays that

1390
01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:46,599
Speaker 1: would have gotten them off the field on defense. Yeah,

1391
01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:48,479
Speaker 1: and it was any's right. Once in a while, you

1392
01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:50,840
Speaker 1: can you can chalk once. I mean even great teams

1393
01:15:50,880 --> 01:15:52,240
Speaker 1: will say, well they got us on that one. You

1394
01:15:52,280 --> 01:15:54,200
Speaker 1: know that they'll have the right defensive call, the right

1395
01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:56,639
Speaker 1: stunt or whatever, and you'll they'll stunt into the play

1396
01:15:56,760 --> 01:16:01,760
Speaker 1: kind of thing. Um, but he's right too. Everybody in

1397
01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:03,160
Speaker 1: the locker room and this goes for and I know

1398
01:16:03,240 --> 01:16:05,280
Speaker 1: this too, but everybody's like, you know, the defense did

1399
01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:07,519
Speaker 1: their job. They only gave up three field goals. I mean,

1400
01:16:07,600 --> 01:16:11,160
Speaker 1: good grief, And that's true. And I said at the beginning,

1401
01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:13,519
Speaker 1: the defense defenders are gonna stand there and go, look,

1402
01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:15,680
Speaker 1: we could have done this and this and this and

1403
01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:18,320
Speaker 1: this in a game that was this tight. Just like

1404
01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:21,360
Speaker 1: back in the Tennessee game, there's like half a dozen

1405
01:16:21,439 --> 01:16:22,920
Speaker 1: players you go down and say, if that would have

1406
01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:25,040
Speaker 1: if any of them went went different, the game is

1407
01:16:25,600 --> 01:16:31,320
Speaker 1: one not lost, and it's multiple multiplied by seventy five

1408
01:16:31,400 --> 01:16:34,479
Speaker 1: plays in this game because neither offense was going to

1409
01:16:34,560 --> 01:16:39,880
Speaker 1: score points. They just couldn't move the football. And that's why,

1410
01:16:39,960 --> 01:16:41,720
Speaker 1: you know, people are focusing on the refs, you know,

1411
01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:43,519
Speaker 1: and this call and that call, and they gave a

1412
01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:45,320
Speaker 1: first down here, they got you know, they converted a

1413
01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:47,280
Speaker 1: third down here when they were they were in motion,

1414
01:16:47,439 --> 01:16:50,680
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. So when you're sitting there

1415
01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:52,600
Speaker 1: as a player like Mitch Moore's and saying, yeah, you

1416
01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:53,960
Speaker 1: know what, once in a while they had it. But

1417
01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:57,320
Speaker 1: you know, even if the Bills had scored thirty five

1418
01:16:57,400 --> 01:16:59,400
Speaker 1: points in a loss in this game, Mitch Morse is

1419
01:16:59,439 --> 01:17:01,280
Speaker 1: still gonna They're going, man, we could have done more.

1420
01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:03,519
Speaker 1: There's just the way, that's just the way they're wired

1421
01:17:03,840 --> 01:17:06,200
Speaker 1: and it's really truly in a close game like that,

1422
01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:08,439
Speaker 1: it's the reality of it. There was always one player,

1423
01:17:08,479 --> 01:17:10,360
Speaker 1: one thing that you did that would have made a difference,

1424
01:17:10,360 --> 01:17:12,559
Speaker 1: and you got to think about it. And Jordan Poyer

1425
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:16,960
Speaker 1: addresses that very subject in his postgame press conference. The

1426
01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:19,960
Speaker 1: defense did play well throughout the course of the game.

1427
01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:25,559
Speaker 1: They also handed Jacksonville six of their sixteen first downs

1428
01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:32,080
Speaker 1: via penalty. So here's Jordan Poyer on the loss. We

1429
01:17:32,200 --> 01:17:35,760
Speaker 1: felt prepared, Uh, had a good week of practice, felt

1430
01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:38,960
Speaker 1: confident going into the game. Um, you know, they came

1431
01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:41,479
Speaker 1: out really aggressive. You could tell from the start their

1432
01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:43,960
Speaker 1: game plan coming into the coming into the game, they're

1433
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:47,479
Speaker 1: gonna play physical, and they just they just beat us. Well,

1434
01:17:47,479 --> 01:17:49,479
Speaker 1: if you guys had the message to not patic after

1435
01:17:49,520 --> 01:17:51,800
Speaker 1: you lost to Pittsburgh in Week one, you seem to

1436
01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:53,720
Speaker 1: bounce back well from that. How do you see that

1437
01:17:53,880 --> 01:17:56,920
Speaker 1: again after today? Same thing. This is the NFL. You

1438
01:17:57,000 --> 01:18:00,360
Speaker 1: gotta learn how to handle the winsimental losses. Yeah, this

1439
01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:03,080
Speaker 1: one hurts, but you gotta play on again on Sunday,

1440
01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:06,680
Speaker 1: so no reason to reason. Yeah, this one's gonna hurt.

1441
01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:09,360
Speaker 1: But twenty four hour rold Watch watched the tate tomorrow,

1442
01:18:09,560 --> 01:18:13,040
Speaker 1: learn from our mistakes and get better. You turn in

1443
01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:15,960
Speaker 1: the page, which you know what you need your veteran

1444
01:18:16,040 --> 01:18:17,960
Speaker 1: players to do to kind of bring everybody with them.

1445
01:18:18,520 --> 01:18:22,559
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean you just hope that they don't

1446
01:18:22,600 --> 01:18:25,559
Speaker 1: look back and say this was the one that got us,

1447
01:18:25,800 --> 01:18:28,240
Speaker 1: you know, something that costs them a high seed or

1448
01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:31,639
Speaker 1: something like that in the playoff race. Well, when you're

1449
01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:33,680
Speaker 1: in a race like it is in the AFC where

1450
01:18:33,680 --> 01:18:35,800
Speaker 1: you got like eleven teams within two games of the

1451
01:18:35,840 --> 01:18:40,479
Speaker 1: compass number one, Yeah, these losses hurt. You want to

1452
01:18:40,520 --> 01:18:43,160
Speaker 1: stay close. The deeper into the season the better. And

1453
01:18:43,920 --> 01:18:46,720
Speaker 1: you know that is a team there was one in

1454
01:18:46,800 --> 01:18:50,320
Speaker 1: six coming into the game and you got punched in

1455
01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:54,280
Speaker 1: the mouth. I think one of the things that gets

1456
01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:56,640
Speaker 1: you too when you watch films like this is the

1457
01:18:56,800 --> 01:18:59,000
Speaker 1: chances you had to punch them back and you couldn't

1458
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:02,360
Speaker 1: make it happen. That's that's when it really eats at you.

1459
01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:03,799
Speaker 1: And that's when you go back out of the practice

1460
01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:06,160
Speaker 1: field they say, all right, not this week. You know.

1461
01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:09,439
Speaker 1: So if they can carry anything forward out of this game,

1462
01:19:09,800 --> 01:19:12,800
Speaker 1: maybe that'll be the the answer, and maybe that'll be

1463
01:19:12,880 --> 01:19:15,559
Speaker 1: the thing that helps them going forward is the fact

1464
01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:18,920
Speaker 1: that they're gonna be ready to punch back or punch first.

1465
01:19:19,320 --> 01:19:21,479
Speaker 1: We finish our trip around the locker room with head

1466
01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:26,320
Speaker 1: coach Sean McDermott, who addressed the undisciplined penalties in the

1467
01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:30,360
Speaker 1: loss to the Jaguars, which included five of the personal

1468
01:19:30,479 --> 01:19:35,559
Speaker 1: foul variety. You can't beat yourself. Let's just start. Let's

1469
01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:44,920
Speaker 1: start there, whether it's penalties, turnovers, fundamentals and and so yeah,

1470
01:19:44,960 --> 01:19:49,559
Speaker 1: way too many penalties self inflicted. Gotta keep our poise.

1471
01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:52,800
Speaker 1: I was a crew that called h taunting, I believe

1472
01:19:52,880 --> 01:19:54,560
Speaker 1: more than anyone in any crew in the league. And

1473
01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:58,560
Speaker 1: we were aware of that and we didn't execute. So

1474
01:19:58,800 --> 01:20:02,880
Speaker 1: there's that I did go and look back Steve and

1475
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:06,920
Speaker 1: yesterday twelve penalties for one hundred and twenty seven yards

1476
01:20:07,080 --> 01:20:09,840
Speaker 1: under eighteen. One hundred and eighteen. So that is the

1477
01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:13,280
Speaker 1: season high, both in number and in yardage, and in

1478
01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:15,320
Speaker 1: a game that that's tight, one hundred and eighteen yards

1479
01:20:15,400 --> 01:20:20,000
Speaker 1: makes a lot of difference. This is over the last

1480
01:20:20,080 --> 01:20:23,839
Speaker 1: four weeks. The Bills have had at least eight penalties

1481
01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:27,200
Speaker 1: in each of their last four games. I believe that eight, nine, ten,

1482
01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:30,600
Speaker 1: not in that order. There was ten eight nine and

1483
01:20:30,680 --> 01:20:35,160
Speaker 1: then twelve yesterday, and they've got to get that curbed

1484
01:20:36,080 --> 01:20:38,920
Speaker 1: to not make life more difficult for them as well

1485
01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:40,960
Speaker 1: in terms of down and distance on both sides of

1486
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,160
Speaker 1: the ball. Yeah, the Bills had twelve or eight hundred

1487
01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:47,320
Speaker 1: and eighteen yards, Yes, too many. And that's been and

1488
01:20:47,439 --> 01:20:49,600
Speaker 1: it's been an issue ongoing too. It hasn't. It's not

1489
01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:51,360
Speaker 1: like a one day thing. It's not a one off.

1490
01:20:51,479 --> 01:20:55,000
Speaker 1: They've that's been a bugaboo for them. And you know,

1491
01:20:55,160 --> 01:20:57,679
Speaker 1: I mean our msg ers are looking at the serrand

1492
01:20:57,720 --> 01:21:02,320
Speaker 1: Neal penalty. The pass interferes down the sideline. Um, yeah,

1493
01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:06,760
Speaker 1: those hurt and helmet to helmet and they're call him.

1494
01:21:07,040 --> 01:21:09,960
Speaker 1: That's what it was, the Tremaine Edmonds hit. Yeah, well

1495
01:21:09,960 --> 01:21:11,360
Speaker 1: you can call it whatever you want. I mean, as

1496
01:21:11,400 --> 01:21:13,240
Speaker 1: soon as he hits him with his face mask, it's over,

1497
01:21:13,360 --> 01:21:20,040
Speaker 1: they're gonna call it. So yeah, and it was you know,

1498
01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:24,880
Speaker 1: Tommy Sweeney off sides, they're full start start, which was right.

1499
01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:27,439
Speaker 1: I saw that one too barely. But then you see

1500
01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:30,720
Speaker 1: a guy come off and and they smack after the

1501
01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:33,400
Speaker 1: play is over. It's sun sportsmanlike because you retaliate on

1502
01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:36,200
Speaker 1: him and that you know, there you always see the retaliator. Yeah,

1503
01:21:36,560 --> 01:21:38,800
Speaker 1: let's yeah, a lot to clean up, on and on

1504
01:21:38,920 --> 01:21:41,800
Speaker 1: and on and on. Yeah. All right, back to the

1505
01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:44,720
Speaker 1: phones though, and Jimmy and Leroy is waiting here, so

1506
01:21:44,840 --> 01:21:46,920
Speaker 1: let's go to Jimmy next year on one Bill's Live. Jimmy,

1507
01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:50,320
Speaker 1: what do you have? Okay, thanks for taking the call.

1508
01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:53,720
Speaker 1: I was just perishing your thoughts. Uh, the fourth and

1509
01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:56,559
Speaker 1: sixteen why they didn't decide to give mass a shot

1510
01:21:56,640 --> 01:21:58,880
Speaker 1: there to tie the game. I know it would have been,

1511
01:21:59,080 --> 01:22:01,200
Speaker 1: you know, a sixty plus yarder, but with the way

1512
01:22:01,240 --> 01:22:03,720
Speaker 1: the offense was playing. I was just curious. And you're

1513
01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:07,200
Speaker 1: talking at the very end of the game, Jimmy, Yes, yeah, Yeah.

1514
01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:09,080
Speaker 1: It was fourth and sixteen when they went for when

1515
01:22:09,160 --> 01:22:11,439
Speaker 1: Josh got sacked there, and I was just curious what

1516
01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:15,280
Speaker 1: he thought White Tilot didn't get a shot. Um, I

1517
01:22:15,320 --> 01:22:17,160
Speaker 1: don't know how far it would have been. I think

1518
01:22:17,200 --> 01:22:19,240
Speaker 1: he was saying fifty eight. But if it was fifty

1519
01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:22,240
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage was the Jacksonville forty eight yard line,

1520
01:22:22,640 --> 01:22:24,639
Speaker 1: So that's no, it's more than fifty eight. It would

1521
01:22:24,640 --> 01:22:27,600
Speaker 1: have been. It's forty eight plus ten yards in the

1522
01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:30,320
Speaker 1: end of the line of scrimmage plus seven it'd have

1523
01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:32,960
Speaker 1: been sixty six yards. Sixty five sixty six, it had

1524
01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:35,680
Speaker 1: been sixty six yards. That's probably why. That's that's probably it.

1525
01:22:35,880 --> 01:22:37,679
Speaker 1: Not to say he couldn't hit it, but on grass,

1526
01:22:37,800 --> 01:22:41,799
Speaker 1: that's tough. Yeah, I mean that, Yeah, that's that's setting

1527
01:22:41,840 --> 01:22:43,559
Speaker 1: him up to fail a little bit too. But by

1528
01:22:43,600 --> 01:22:47,280
Speaker 1: the same token, he's the guy that he probably I'm laughing,

1529
01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:49,280
Speaker 1: he wouldn't shy away from going out, but he and

1530
01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:52,240
Speaker 1: he probably played better than anybody on the team that

1531
01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:54,800
Speaker 1: wasn't playing defense. Anyway, you could argue he's the most

1532
01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:57,639
Speaker 1: consistent player on the team this season. But sixty six

1533
01:22:57,720 --> 01:23:01,120
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's extreme. Yeah. And they have those

1534
01:23:01,160 --> 01:23:04,160
Speaker 1: lines of demarcation mapped out right, and they go over

1535
01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:06,679
Speaker 1: every half. Beginning of the game. He goes to coach

1536
01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:08,479
Speaker 1: and says, hey, go for going this way, this is

1537
01:23:08,520 --> 01:23:11,360
Speaker 1: my line of demarcation. For going that way, this is

1538
01:23:11,439 --> 01:23:13,320
Speaker 1: my line, and then they reset it in the second half.

1539
01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:16,280
Speaker 1: That's why those kickers are out there early after halftime

1540
01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:18,880
Speaker 1: to reset the lines based on what the conditions are.

1541
01:23:19,080 --> 01:23:22,000
Speaker 1: That's right. Let's go back to the phones and we

1542
01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:24,640
Speaker 1: go to Don in Irwin, Pa, Don, what do you

1543
01:23:24,720 --> 01:23:27,800
Speaker 1: have for us? You're on one Bill's life. Hey man,

1544
01:23:28,360 --> 01:23:33,679
Speaker 1: hey win loser tie Bills mantil I died anyways, Uh, Steve,

1545
01:23:33,720 --> 01:23:36,080
Speaker 1: I would like nothing more to be thrilled to see

1546
01:23:36,120 --> 01:23:39,280
Speaker 1: you at the the co Football Hall of Fame podium

1547
01:23:39,320 --> 01:23:42,800
Speaker 1: and making his speech. But with that being said, I

1548
01:23:42,920 --> 01:23:46,240
Speaker 1: just want to say that, you know, hindsight's kind of

1549
01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:51,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. We made three draft choices at defensive end,

1550
01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:57,679
Speaker 1: and Teller of course went to Cleveland, and and Cody

1551
01:23:57,760 --> 01:24:00,280
Speaker 1: Ford is kind of a bust. So I mean, I

1552
01:24:00,400 --> 01:24:05,000
Speaker 1: see five offensive linemen right there, and U So I

1553
01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:12,040
Speaker 1: really think, I mean, Josh's talent is really only use

1554
01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:15,920
Speaker 1: you know, it's only shown when he has the protection

1555
01:24:16,040 --> 01:24:20,800
Speaker 1: that he needs, just like any other quarterback. So it's

1556
01:24:20,920 --> 01:24:25,800
Speaker 1: kind of decision making on coaching. Also, it's not just

1557
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:30,880
Speaker 1: all execution. So with that being said, thanks for having

1558
01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:33,479
Speaker 1: me on the show, guys and god Bills. Yeah, thanks

1559
01:24:33,479 --> 01:24:37,280
Speaker 1: for the call. Done. Um Yeah, I mean you're right,

1560
01:24:37,479 --> 01:24:40,000
Speaker 1: hindsight is twenty twenty. Didn't stop you from taking a

1561
01:24:40,120 --> 01:24:43,240
Speaker 1: look back though. Um, I mean you want to make

1562
01:24:43,240 --> 01:24:46,120
Speaker 1: an argument that, I mean they drafted two offensive tackles

1563
01:24:46,120 --> 01:24:47,880
Speaker 1: in this year's draft. I mean it's not like they

1564
01:24:47,960 --> 01:24:49,960
Speaker 1: ignored the offensive line at all, and one of them

1565
01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:55,360
Speaker 1: starting at least when he's healthy. And Cody Ford was

1566
01:24:55,400 --> 01:24:58,160
Speaker 1: a high draft pick. He's not played well. We know that.

1567
01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:01,599
Speaker 1: It's why he land on the bench after Week two

1568
01:25:02,120 --> 01:25:05,639
Speaker 1: and got replaced in the lineup. So you know, it's

1569
01:25:05,680 --> 01:25:07,720
Speaker 1: not like when they see a problem they don't try

1570
01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:12,439
Speaker 1: to address it. But there's only so many avenues who

1571
01:25:12,479 --> 01:25:16,040
Speaker 1: can go down at this point in the season. They've

1572
01:25:16,040 --> 01:25:18,759
Speaker 1: already made changes, and they've done this in the past

1573
01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:22,120
Speaker 1: two I mean, let's not forget last year. After Week

1574
01:25:22,240 --> 01:25:25,640
Speaker 1: two they benched Quentin Spain and he didn't want to

1575
01:25:25,680 --> 01:25:27,960
Speaker 1: take on a reserve role, so they bit him ado

1576
01:25:28,080 --> 01:25:33,280
Speaker 1: and he moved on, you know, the Wyatteller trade. At

1577
01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:36,920
Speaker 1: that time, they didn't have a spot for him, if

1578
01:25:36,960 --> 01:25:40,400
Speaker 1: I remember right, because Richie Incognito was still here, so

1579
01:25:40,560 --> 01:25:44,120
Speaker 1: too was Eric Wood John Miller I think was the

1580
01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:46,880
Speaker 1: right guard at the time. He couldn't get on the field,

1581
01:25:48,439 --> 01:25:49,960
Speaker 1: and they got a good offer for him, or an

1582
01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:55,040
Speaker 1: offer they thought was good. Yeah. So yeah, yeah, that

1583
01:25:55,560 --> 01:25:58,519
Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to hope for this. You're gonna

1584
01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:00,200
Speaker 1: have to hope for the offensive line to get back

1585
01:26:00,240 --> 01:26:03,559
Speaker 1: on the field, stay healthy and play better. That includes

1586
01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:05,240
Speaker 1: the guys that are on the field now and all

1587
01:26:05,280 --> 01:26:07,360
Speaker 1: their backup. Everybody's gonna have play better than they have

1588
01:26:07,520 --> 01:26:10,000
Speaker 1: been and you gotta hope they get healthy. When they

1589
01:26:10,080 --> 01:26:13,760
Speaker 1: were healthy, it was number one scoring offense in the league. Yeah,

1590
01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:16,679
Speaker 1: I don't think it's any coincidence that when they start

1591
01:26:16,720 --> 01:26:18,880
Speaker 1: getting nicked up and moving guys all over the place

1592
01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:22,240
Speaker 1: that they started to struggle to score points. Good. And

1593
01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:24,000
Speaker 1: we'll have Eric Wood on the show in the third hour,

1594
01:26:24,120 --> 01:26:26,680
Speaker 1: but he's told us this time and again on the

1595
01:26:26,760 --> 01:26:33,000
Speaker 1: air end off offensive line depth is a chronic problem

1596
01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:37,479
Speaker 1: across the league. Yea, Like they are not many offensive

1597
01:26:37,560 --> 01:26:41,639
Speaker 1: lines that even have five good starters, let alone depth

1598
01:26:41,720 --> 01:26:47,960
Speaker 1: behind them. So it is an issue across football. And

1599
01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:50,559
Speaker 1: the Bill's depth has been tested here in the last

1600
01:26:50,600 --> 01:26:53,559
Speaker 1: couple of weeks and unfortunately yesterday they paid the price

1601
01:26:53,640 --> 01:26:56,120
Speaker 1: for it. Let's squeeze one more call in here, Bill

1602
01:26:56,280 --> 01:27:00,360
Speaker 1: in Buffalo, what do you have for us? Go ahead? Bill? Hey, guys,

1603
01:27:00,360 --> 01:27:03,280
Speaker 1: thanks for accepting a call. Um Brownie, you nailed it

1604
01:27:03,320 --> 01:27:05,479
Speaker 1: on the head. That was my first comment. Is I

1605
01:27:06,240 --> 01:27:09,240
Speaker 1: ceba guys calling the show and whatnot and saying you know,

1606
01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:12,360
Speaker 1: go to practice squads and find other other guys to

1607
01:27:12,479 --> 01:27:15,160
Speaker 1: the place. And like I said, you nailed it on

1608
01:27:15,200 --> 01:27:16,880
Speaker 1: the head. I mean there's not there's not too many

1609
01:27:16,920 --> 01:27:18,479
Speaker 1: out there when it comes to Slin pickings for the

1610
01:27:18,560 --> 01:27:22,320
Speaker 1: offensive line. Um, I do have a question for uh,

1611
01:27:22,640 --> 01:27:24,920
Speaker 1: for Steve, but I'm gonna make a comment first and

1612
01:27:25,280 --> 01:27:29,120
Speaker 1: a commentist for Bill fans. Let's calm down. Um. You know,

1613
01:27:29,160 --> 01:27:31,840
Speaker 1: I'm really upset with the loss two, but I feel

1614
01:27:31,840 --> 01:27:34,280
Speaker 1: like we've been we've been in such a such an

1615
01:27:34,320 --> 01:27:37,040
Speaker 1: amazing stretch of games. You know, we're up twenty one three,

1616
01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:38,439
Speaker 1: and I got Bill Shans next to me, like I

1617
01:27:38,560 --> 01:27:40,960
Speaker 1: want more, I want more, I want more, and you know,

1618
01:27:41,320 --> 01:27:44,160
Speaker 1: and and it just seems like, you know, calm down.

1619
01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:46,400
Speaker 1: You know there's a long season to go. You know

1620
01:27:46,520 --> 01:27:48,760
Speaker 1: that that media answer of you know other players get

1621
01:27:48,800 --> 01:27:51,080
Speaker 1: played also, it's not just to me answer. It's true.

1622
01:27:51,360 --> 01:27:53,120
Speaker 1: You know other players get played. It it's you know,

1623
01:27:53,240 --> 01:27:55,280
Speaker 1: they get paid the same amount of money, if not

1624
01:27:55,439 --> 01:27:58,040
Speaker 1: more than in our team. So you know, let's take

1625
01:27:58,040 --> 01:28:00,599
Speaker 1: a chill pill, let's calm down. That's uh twenty four

1626
01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:03,519
Speaker 1: hour rule. Let's get back to it. Um. The question

1627
01:28:03,600 --> 01:28:08,280
Speaker 1: I have for Steve is uh disciplinary, you know, disciplinary

1628
01:28:08,320 --> 01:28:10,799
Speaker 1: things when it comes to you know, the week following

1629
01:28:10,880 --> 01:28:12,640
Speaker 1: up to the next game. Um, I know back in

1630
01:28:12,680 --> 01:28:14,720
Speaker 1: the day, I'm more of a new time fan, you know,

1631
01:28:14,840 --> 01:28:17,519
Speaker 1: from two thousand up. You know, Dad always streams in

1632
01:28:17,600 --> 01:28:21,000
Speaker 1: my ear how amazing you were not? And I always

1633
01:28:21,040 --> 01:28:23,160
Speaker 1: had this this wondering. I used to run sprints and

1634
01:28:23,240 --> 01:28:25,519
Speaker 1: practice and they used to kill me. And what was

1635
01:28:25,600 --> 01:28:28,320
Speaker 1: the difference between you know, a bad offensive line game

1636
01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:30,600
Speaker 1: in the nineties, you know, over the what were the

1637
01:28:30,640 --> 01:28:34,400
Speaker 1: disciplinary actions compared to you know, Sean McDermott team nowadays,

1638
01:28:34,600 --> 01:28:38,000
Speaker 1: What do you mean disciplinary? And then, um, you know,

1639
01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:40,200
Speaker 1: simply simply what do we do to fix that? I

1640
01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:42,719
Speaker 1: mean going out and running the same run plays twenty

1641
01:28:42,800 --> 01:28:44,880
Speaker 1: times and doing the same routines. You know, it just

1642
01:28:45,040 --> 01:28:47,400
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like, you know, what, what are we going

1643
01:28:47,439 --> 01:28:50,120
Speaker 1: to learn off of the laws? It's hard. It's hard

1644
01:28:50,200 --> 01:28:53,080
Speaker 1: to put your finger on something. Because a bad offensive

1645
01:28:53,160 --> 01:28:56,799
Speaker 1: line play, there are five different guys. Each guy, whichever

1646
01:28:56,920 --> 01:28:59,320
Speaker 1: one if there's a guy out there, who's the weak link,

1647
01:29:00,439 --> 01:29:03,719
Speaker 1: if it's the right guard, left guard, right tackle, left tackle, center,

1648
01:29:03,880 --> 01:29:06,799
Speaker 1: They're all going to manifest themselves in different ways. Depending

1649
01:29:06,800 --> 01:29:09,120
Speaker 1: on what defense you're playing and all that. So you're

1650
01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:12,040
Speaker 1: always gonna be you're always gonna know that either that

1651
01:29:12,120 --> 01:29:14,080
Speaker 1: offensive line is gonna have to be helped or he's

1652
01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:15,680
Speaker 1: gonna have to be a helper when he doesn't have

1653
01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:17,760
Speaker 1: anybody to block, and it's not going to be that

1654
01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:23,560
Speaker 1: much helper as good. It's a weird I call it

1655
01:29:23,640 --> 01:29:27,519
Speaker 1: an illness that's got many different symptoms when you've got

1656
01:29:27,560 --> 01:29:31,040
Speaker 1: an offensive line that's not clicking, and it can be

1657
01:29:31,160 --> 01:29:33,720
Speaker 1: as simple as a lack of communication, or the guy

1658
01:29:33,880 --> 01:29:36,080
Speaker 1: steps to the wrong guy because he thought he heard

1659
01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:39,160
Speaker 1: a call, or he misinterprets the call, or he gets

1660
01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:42,360
Speaker 1: the call wrong, or he's just not good enough. He

1661
01:29:42,360 --> 01:29:43,760
Speaker 1: steps to the right guy. He's just not good enough

1662
01:29:43,760 --> 01:29:45,360
Speaker 1: to stop the guy. There's all kinds of ways to

1663
01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:49,840
Speaker 1: look at it, but the coaching staff knows and sees

1664
01:29:49,920 --> 01:29:52,920
Speaker 1: what's going on up front. I mean, I remember talking

1665
01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:55,560
Speaker 1: briefly to Sean McDermott back in twenty eighteen and he

1666
01:29:55,640 --> 01:30:00,080
Speaker 1: just said, we can't win. The line is scrimmage. And

1667
01:30:01,080 --> 01:30:03,880
Speaker 1: so they've seen this before, and I know that last

1668
01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:07,960
Speaker 1: year twenty twenty, twenty, nineteen, twenty twenty and twenty twenty one.

1669
01:30:08,160 --> 01:30:10,120
Speaker 1: They have not forgotten that they brought it. They had

1670
01:30:10,160 --> 01:30:13,120
Speaker 1: like fifteen offensive linemen in camp this year. They were

1671
01:30:13,320 --> 01:30:18,080
Speaker 1: they knew how important it was, and they extended some guys,

1672
01:30:18,520 --> 01:30:23,240
Speaker 1: brought them back, and now they're injured. Now they're starting

1673
01:30:23,280 --> 01:30:27,240
Speaker 1: to shuffle them around. I'm with you, though, I mean

1674
01:30:27,320 --> 01:30:32,479
Speaker 1: every it's everybody saw what happened yesterday. When Josh had time,

1675
01:30:32,640 --> 01:30:34,360
Speaker 1: has time to throw. They've seen it all year. When

1676
01:30:34,439 --> 01:30:38,160
Speaker 1: Josh has time to throw, he's deadly. When he doesn't,

1677
01:30:38,240 --> 01:30:40,360
Speaker 1: that's the only chance of the teams have. And the

1678
01:30:40,479 --> 01:30:42,400
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks we've seen the results of teams

1679
01:30:42,439 --> 01:30:44,040
Speaker 1: that were able to get him off his mark and

1680
01:30:44,160 --> 01:30:46,200
Speaker 1: get pressure on him. You're going to see a lot

1681
01:30:46,240 --> 01:30:48,759
Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, this is only going to reinforce taking

1682
01:30:48,880 --> 01:30:50,400
Speaker 1: that approach. You're gonna see a lot of it. So

1683
01:30:50,439 --> 01:30:51,920
Speaker 1: the Bills are gonna have to come up with ways

1684
01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:56,439
Speaker 1: to counteract it. There's no question break time for us here.

1685
01:30:56,520 --> 01:30:58,120
Speaker 1: We'll get to more phone calls when we come back.

1686
01:30:58,160 --> 01:31:00,200
Speaker 1: It's one of Bills Live presenter by Kalida Hell, it's

1687
01:31:00,200 --> 01:31:15,720
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills Radio. I'm gonna get right back to the

1688
01:31:15,760 --> 01:31:19,720
Speaker 1: phones here on a Buffalo football Monday, and we go

1689
01:31:20,200 --> 01:31:22,880
Speaker 1: next year to Chris in Buffalo. Chris, what do you

1690
01:31:22,920 --> 01:31:26,680
Speaker 1: have for us? You're on one bills live. Yeah, I

1691
01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:31,559
Speaker 1: just uh, after the game, I watched the press conference

1692
01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:35,160
Speaker 1: with Josh Allen, and uh I really uh I really

1693
01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:38,880
Speaker 1: felt that uh uh you know, in lou Of I

1694
01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:43,080
Speaker 1: never saw a more vicious rush on him, and I

1695
01:31:43,200 --> 01:31:46,080
Speaker 1: kind of felt bad that he seemed to be taken

1696
01:31:46,120 --> 01:31:49,920
Speaker 1: an awful lot of responsibility for what happened, and um

1697
01:31:50,560 --> 01:31:53,840
Speaker 1: and you know it's uh, I think in in in

1698
01:31:53,960 --> 01:31:58,479
Speaker 1: his circumstances, I saw that, uh that Josh Allon for

1699
01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:00,960
Speaker 1: their team on defense to come down to one time

1700
01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:04,320
Speaker 1: that he throw him down pretty pretty darn good, and

1701
01:32:04,720 --> 01:32:07,760
Speaker 1: uh I hated. I hated to see him getting act

1702
01:32:07,760 --> 01:32:10,040
Speaker 1: around as badly as dead and and then then to

1703
01:32:10,200 --> 01:32:12,280
Speaker 1: kind of like, I mean, I understand it, he's a

1704
01:32:12,360 --> 01:32:16,280
Speaker 1: team player and everything else, but uh, it seemed to me,

1705
01:32:16,520 --> 01:32:18,639
Speaker 1: and you know, you guys wouldn't know better than I would,

1706
01:32:18,680 --> 01:32:21,120
Speaker 1: but it seemed to me that he personalized it a

1707
01:32:21,160 --> 01:32:24,120
Speaker 1: little bit deeper than I've seen him in the past,

1708
01:32:24,240 --> 01:32:26,960
Speaker 1: and it didn't really feel that was fair for him

1709
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:30,240
Speaker 1: to do it to himself. But anyway, I'll leave it

1710
01:32:30,280 --> 01:32:33,639
Speaker 1: at that, and uh, wait for your guys, Comma, thanks

1711
01:32:33,680 --> 01:32:36,720
Speaker 1: for called Chris. Appreciate it. Yeah, I mean he's been

1712
01:32:36,840 --> 01:32:40,320
Speaker 1: that way. That's very hard on himself. He knew well, yeah,

1713
01:32:40,360 --> 01:32:42,560
Speaker 1: I mean he senses or fields or knows whatever you

1714
01:32:42,600 --> 01:32:44,040
Speaker 1: want to say. He's the best. He's one of the

1715
01:32:44,120 --> 01:32:46,080
Speaker 1: best players on the field. He's one of the best

1716
01:32:46,080 --> 01:32:48,840
Speaker 1: players in the league. And he with that goes a

1717
01:32:48,920 --> 01:32:53,040
Speaker 1: ton of responsibility and he shoulders it whether he deserves

1718
01:32:53,080 --> 01:32:56,160
Speaker 1: it or not. That's that's the way it is. I

1719
01:32:56,280 --> 01:32:59,000
Speaker 1: thought he was. I mean, we've said it before. He's

1720
01:32:59,040 --> 01:33:02,200
Speaker 1: one of the most cell aware quarterbacks that we've ever

1721
01:33:02,280 --> 01:33:07,760
Speaker 1: been around. He's very honest with himself and I think

1722
01:33:08,080 --> 01:33:12,080
Speaker 1: oftentimes his assessments are on the money. And the one

1723
01:33:12,160 --> 01:33:15,080
Speaker 1: thing that he mentioned after the game yesterday was his

1724
01:33:15,280 --> 01:33:20,360
Speaker 1: decision making. And by no means does any quarterback ever

1725
01:33:20,600 --> 01:33:23,080
Speaker 1: play the perfect game. There's just too many plays, there's

1726
01:33:23,080 --> 01:33:25,800
Speaker 1: too much competition coming at you to make the right

1727
01:33:25,960 --> 01:33:30,960
Speaker 1: decision every single time. But he was disappointed. He felt

1728
01:33:31,000 --> 01:33:33,800
Speaker 1: that there were a good number of decisions he made

1729
01:33:33,840 --> 01:33:36,439
Speaker 1: that were not the best decision he could have made

1730
01:33:36,479 --> 01:33:39,479
Speaker 1: on a given play. And he's probably right about that.

1731
01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:43,040
Speaker 1: To a certain extent, he was far from the biggest

1732
01:33:43,080 --> 01:33:47,679
Speaker 1: problem affecting this team, though in yesterday's game. I don't

1733
01:33:47,680 --> 01:33:50,880
Speaker 1: think there's anybody questioning that they were much bigger issues

1734
01:33:50,920 --> 01:33:55,040
Speaker 1: at work, and some of them impacted him directly through

1735
01:33:55,120 --> 01:33:58,439
Speaker 1: no fault of his own. So that's kind of how

1736
01:33:58,520 --> 01:34:01,479
Speaker 1: I see it. But that's what quarterback Good quarterbacks are

1737
01:34:01,479 --> 01:34:04,000
Speaker 1: going to point to themselves first. He did that yesterday.

1738
01:34:04,520 --> 01:34:07,639
Speaker 1: I understand maybe he criticized himself a little too much,

1739
01:34:08,200 --> 01:34:11,599
Speaker 1: but that's just the way Josh plays it every single week, good,

1740
01:34:11,640 --> 01:34:14,519
Speaker 1: bad or indifferent. Sorry, Yeah, and I agree with that.

1741
01:34:15,520 --> 01:34:18,360
Speaker 1: That's just that's that's part of what makes a great

1742
01:34:18,400 --> 01:34:22,519
Speaker 1: guy great. Yeah, let's go back to the phones and

1743
01:34:22,720 --> 01:34:24,880
Speaker 1: we'll go to Nico in Buffalo. Nico, what do you

1744
01:34:24,960 --> 01:34:27,760
Speaker 1: have for us? You're all one Bill's lives. Hey, how's

1745
01:34:27,760 --> 01:34:30,160
Speaker 1: it going, guys? I don't I guess it's just a

1746
01:34:30,200 --> 01:34:35,400
Speaker 1: little discouraging, you know. Listening to Buffalo radio stations today,

1747
01:34:35,439 --> 01:34:37,920
Speaker 1: they were talking about the bills because you know, people

1748
01:34:37,960 --> 01:34:41,000
Speaker 1: are so discouraged, and you know, even when we put

1749
01:34:41,080 --> 01:34:44,280
Speaker 1: up like thirty five points, the conversation isn't it's always

1750
01:34:44,360 --> 01:34:47,360
Speaker 1: like we didn't do it the right way or I

1751
01:34:47,400 --> 01:34:50,040
Speaker 1: don't know. I just feel like Bill stands this season

1752
01:34:50,800 --> 01:34:54,800
Speaker 1: have been super ungrateful with the amazing team that we

1753
01:34:54,960 --> 01:34:57,439
Speaker 1: put on the field. We have an elite defense, you've

1754
01:34:57,439 --> 01:35:00,160
Speaker 1: been putting up like thirty five points per games, one

1755
01:35:00,160 --> 01:35:02,120
Speaker 1: of the spend, one of the best offices in the league.

1756
01:35:02,160 --> 01:35:04,719
Speaker 1: Like did we get Yeah, it was a bad loss,

1757
01:35:04,800 --> 01:35:08,040
Speaker 1: but like it should we not even play the games anymore?

1758
01:35:08,120 --> 01:35:11,960
Speaker 1: Like are we at that point as fans where you know,

1759
01:35:12,120 --> 01:35:15,080
Speaker 1: we think we're so good that we cannot We're not

1760
01:35:15,120 --> 01:35:17,639
Speaker 1: gonna lose to anybody, you know, Like look at the Ravens.

1761
01:35:17,680 --> 01:35:20,400
Speaker 1: They have terrible losses, The Chargers have terrible losses. Cowboys

1762
01:35:20,400 --> 01:35:23,759
Speaker 1: have terrible losses, the Bucks have terrible Like it happens,

1763
01:35:23,800 --> 01:35:26,160
Speaker 1: it's the NFL, And like what Josh said, they're all

1764
01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:29,160
Speaker 1: grown man, they get paid to play the game. Um,

1765
01:35:30,120 --> 01:35:32,479
Speaker 1: it's not it's it's a bad loss. But I mean,

1766
01:35:32,560 --> 01:35:34,519
Speaker 1: come on, I guess, I guess I just want everyone

1767
01:35:34,600 --> 01:35:37,320
Speaker 1: to relax a little bit and just like step back

1768
01:35:37,360 --> 01:35:41,800
Speaker 1: and enjoy what we get to watch every Sunday because

1769
01:35:42,160 --> 01:35:44,400
Speaker 1: we have a team that that could that compeat with

1770
01:35:44,439 --> 01:35:46,439
Speaker 1: anybody in the NFL, and I just feel like that's

1771
01:35:46,439 --> 01:35:49,000
Speaker 1: getting lost in like the we're not perfect, so let's

1772
01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:53,680
Speaker 1: you know, we kind of expect when we come in

1773
01:35:53,760 --> 01:35:55,320
Speaker 1: on day like today, we kind of expect it. And

1774
01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:58,600
Speaker 1: there's and listen, yeah, this team, as good as it is,

1775
01:35:58,680 --> 01:36:02,320
Speaker 1: doesn't isn't aboveticism, and they criticize themselves, are self critical

1776
01:36:02,439 --> 01:36:07,200
Speaker 1: just like everybody is. And believe Chargers fans, Cowboy fans,

1777
01:36:08,040 --> 01:36:11,320
Speaker 1: Baltimore raven fans, well not Ravens fan. They won yesterday.

1778
01:36:11,360 --> 01:36:14,040
Speaker 1: But you know some of these fan bases of other

1779
01:36:14,120 --> 01:36:16,400
Speaker 1: teams that took tough losses yesterday, you know there's like

1780
01:36:16,479 --> 01:36:20,160
Speaker 1: five underdogs that one yesterday. Believe me, all those fan

1781
01:36:20,240 --> 01:36:22,800
Speaker 1: bases are in exactly the same spot. The Buffalo Bills

1782
01:36:22,840 --> 01:36:25,320
Speaker 1: fan base is too. It's no fun and I get

1783
01:36:25,360 --> 01:36:27,960
Speaker 1: it too. You can appreciate good defense, but it's not

1784
01:36:28,000 --> 01:36:30,360
Speaker 1: as fun to watch. And I think I think the

1785
01:36:30,439 --> 01:36:34,600
Speaker 1: overriding concern for the fans that have been critical is

1786
01:36:35,920 --> 01:36:39,560
Speaker 1: what the evidence has shown this year is when the

1787
01:36:39,680 --> 01:36:45,280
Speaker 1: Bills offense plays a physical defensive front, they struggle in

1788
01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:48,479
Speaker 1: a big way. It's happened three times now this season,

1789
01:36:48,920 --> 01:36:51,200
Speaker 1: and I think it's put some doubt in the minds

1790
01:36:51,240 --> 01:36:54,680
Speaker 1: of fans as to just how far this team can go.

1791
01:36:54,840 --> 01:36:57,680
Speaker 1: And I said it earlier in the show, expectation is

1792
01:36:57,760 --> 01:37:02,280
Speaker 1: poison for fans. It's poison for fans. Yeah, it is,

1793
01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:05,880
Speaker 1: because when the Bills don't meet that level of expectation,

1794
01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:08,600
Speaker 1: which we all would admit has risen considerably in the

1795
01:37:08,720 --> 01:37:13,240
Speaker 1: last year year plus, they go nuts. And I understand why,

1796
01:37:13,640 --> 01:37:15,960
Speaker 1: because they're like, oh, we finally got a great team.

1797
01:37:16,040 --> 01:37:18,120
Speaker 1: Oh my god, they're not what they can't do it?

1798
01:37:18,439 --> 01:37:20,240
Speaker 1: Why you mean they can't do it? What's going out

1799
01:37:20,320 --> 01:37:24,360
Speaker 1: every time? Yeah? And let's face it, expectation is not

1800
01:37:24,680 --> 01:37:33,040
Speaker 1: as stable as results. So expectations fragile and results shatter

1801
01:37:33,120 --> 01:37:36,000
Speaker 1: it pretty quickly. And people are people, you know, have

1802
01:37:36,240 --> 01:37:40,040
Speaker 1: fragile expectations sometimes and they can be bumped around. This

1803
01:37:40,160 --> 01:37:41,720
Speaker 1: is a fan base that hasn't had a really good

1804
01:37:41,760 --> 01:37:44,840
Speaker 1: team for a while. They do now, and you know,

1805
01:37:44,920 --> 01:37:46,960
Speaker 1: there's a whole generation of Bills fans are doing this,

1806
01:37:47,120 --> 01:37:48,960
Speaker 1: going through this for the first time. Yeah, and I

1807
01:37:49,080 --> 01:37:52,519
Speaker 1: get it, But they don't play in a vacuum. It's

1808
01:37:52,520 --> 01:37:54,960
Speaker 1: a very difficult league to win in and the Bills are,

1809
01:37:55,120 --> 01:37:57,040
Speaker 1: you know, proof of that. They're a really good football

1810
01:37:57,080 --> 01:37:59,400
Speaker 1: team and they drop dropped a game to a one

1811
01:37:59,439 --> 01:38:02,599
Speaker 1: and sixteen that played better. Yeah, we have to take

1812
01:38:02,600 --> 01:38:04,439
Speaker 1: a break here because when we come back, we're going

1813
01:38:04,479 --> 01:38:06,960
Speaker 1: to be joined by Eric Wood called the game on

1814
01:38:07,160 --> 01:38:09,920
Speaker 1: the Bills Radio Network with one John Murphy. We'll get

1815
01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:12,720
Speaker 1: his thoughts on the outcome of yesterday's game and what

1816
01:38:12,800 --> 01:38:14,920
Speaker 1: it means going forward next here on One Bill's Live,

1817
01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:34,960
Speaker 1: presented by Kalid to Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio at

1818
01:38:35,000 --> 01:38:38,519
Speaker 1: a Steve Tasker who has been all over the fields.

1819
01:38:38,600 --> 01:38:40,200
Speaker 1: Kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role

1820
01:38:40,280 --> 01:38:46,559
Speaker 1: player for you. Steve, Steve a blimp. We're not even

1821
01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:52,280
Speaker 1: in the strated beere of normalcy. We're number three on

1822
01:38:52,320 --> 01:38:55,040
Speaker 1: a Buffalo Football Monday. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you

1823
01:38:55,160 --> 01:38:58,679
Speaker 1: and joined now by the color analyst from the Bills

1824
01:38:58,760 --> 01:39:04,479
Speaker 1: Radio Network was on site to witness yesterday's nine six

1825
01:39:04,640 --> 01:39:09,000
Speaker 1: loss in every gruesome detail. It is Eric Wood joining

1826
01:39:09,080 --> 01:39:11,360
Speaker 1: us now on the line to kind of go over

1827
01:39:11,479 --> 01:39:15,200
Speaker 1: this one. And Eric, as you might expect, the offensive

1828
01:39:15,280 --> 01:39:18,840
Speaker 1: line is a little bit under siege after yesterday's performance,

1829
01:39:19,400 --> 01:39:22,479
Speaker 1: primarily because they left Josh Allen under siege for most

1830
01:39:22,520 --> 01:39:28,000
Speaker 1: of the game. What did you see from your vantage point? Yeah,

1831
01:39:28,040 --> 01:39:32,280
Speaker 1: I saw a good amount of lost one on one matchups,

1832
01:39:32,439 --> 01:39:36,520
Speaker 1: which is very critical of the offensive line in those situations.

1833
01:39:36,880 --> 01:39:42,720
Speaker 1: I saw Jacksonville just continually dial up pressure. We're free

1834
01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:46,680
Speaker 1: hitters were based which we're based upon protections and how

1835
01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:50,439
Speaker 1: the offensive line was sliding. And that's not necessarily always

1836
01:39:51,560 --> 01:39:55,280
Speaker 1: on the offensive It takes a lot of what and

1837
01:39:55,920 --> 01:39:57,720
Speaker 1: how thought Josh bolt on the ball a lot, And

1838
01:39:57,840 --> 01:40:02,760
Speaker 1: that's easy to say in my in my position, but

1839
01:40:03,320 --> 01:40:06,600
Speaker 1: I thought Josh also held onto the ball which created

1840
01:40:07,160 --> 01:40:11,280
Speaker 1: um at times, maybe more pressure than was actually maybe

1841
01:40:11,320 --> 01:40:13,599
Speaker 1: in front of him. But the offensive line, yeah, they

1842
01:40:13,680 --> 01:40:16,840
Speaker 1: deserved um some some blame, and there's there's a lot

1843
01:40:16,880 --> 01:40:20,360
Speaker 1: of blame to go around yesterday. Yeah, and I and

1844
01:40:21,560 --> 01:40:23,640
Speaker 1: what do you think going forward to certainly getting two

1845
01:40:23,720 --> 01:40:26,880
Speaker 1: guys put out, Spencer Brown sitting down, John Feliciano out

1846
01:40:27,320 --> 01:40:29,560
Speaker 1: and then they're shifting around, means three different guys on

1847
01:40:29,680 --> 01:40:36,759
Speaker 1: that group that was It used to be Dawkins, Feliciano, Morse, Williams,

1848
01:40:36,920 --> 01:40:42,280
Speaker 1: Williams and Brown and now it's now it's Dawkins, but

1849
01:40:42,560 --> 01:40:50,240
Speaker 1: Ger Morse, Ford Williams. Um sixty percent your offensive lines

1850
01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:52,559
Speaker 1: different and it's the third week in a row it's

1851
01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:59,160
Speaker 1: been different. Is that how big of a difference that makes? Yeah,

1852
01:40:59,200 --> 01:41:01,479
Speaker 1: that plays a big actor. And when you got Darryl

1853
01:41:01,479 --> 01:41:04,040
Speaker 1: Williams and you're bumping him inside and out and you're

1854
01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:07,599
Speaker 1: bumping guys the different sides, that could be extremely difficult

1855
01:41:07,840 --> 01:41:10,599
Speaker 1: for an offensive line. This is a franchise left tackle

1856
01:41:10,640 --> 01:41:13,720
Speaker 1: and Dion Dawkins, who it's later in the season now,

1857
01:41:13,800 --> 01:41:16,920
Speaker 1: but some of his early struggles were due to coming

1858
01:41:17,000 --> 01:41:20,760
Speaker 1: off of that COVID designation during training camp, and you know,

1859
01:41:20,880 --> 01:41:23,759
Speaker 1: this is an offensive line that's been beat up, moved around.

1860
01:41:24,720 --> 01:41:26,639
Speaker 1: You know, who knows what the benching did to Cody

1861
01:41:26,720 --> 01:41:29,280
Speaker 1: Ford's confidence. He wasn't playing at a high level beforehand,

1862
01:41:29,320 --> 01:41:34,599
Speaker 1: but certainly wasn't playing at extremely high level yesterday. So yeah,

1863
01:41:34,600 --> 01:41:37,080
Speaker 1: there's some work to be done up front. And you know,

1864
01:41:37,120 --> 01:41:39,160
Speaker 1: I really like the way they were playing when they

1865
01:41:39,200 --> 01:41:42,479
Speaker 1: had Feliciano in there, and they had Darryl Williams at

1866
01:41:42,560 --> 01:41:45,120
Speaker 1: right guard and Spencer Brown and hopefully as the season

1867
01:41:45,200 --> 01:41:47,800
Speaker 1: goes on and they get healthier, they get back to

1868
01:41:47,920 --> 01:41:52,000
Speaker 1: that group, because this is a group. And I got

1869
01:41:52,120 --> 01:41:54,640
Speaker 1: crushed pretty good on Twitter for staying last week that

1870
01:41:54,760 --> 01:41:56,640
Speaker 1: this is one of the best offensive line groups in

1871
01:41:56,640 --> 01:42:00,200
Speaker 1: the NFL. And I'll say this as a whole. Look

1872
01:42:00,240 --> 01:42:03,720
Speaker 1: at the entirety of them, and there's a lot of

1873
01:42:03,760 --> 01:42:06,080
Speaker 1: teams in this league that would just kill to have

1874
01:42:06,240 --> 01:42:11,240
Speaker 1: their depth and versatility, but maybe some of the individual

1875
01:42:11,360 --> 01:42:15,080
Speaker 1: pieces aren't at a level of maybe a Zach Martin

1876
01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:16,760
Speaker 1: or some of the players in the league. I say

1877
01:42:16,800 --> 01:42:19,680
Speaker 1: all that when you don't have a run game, and

1878
01:42:19,840 --> 01:42:22,960
Speaker 1: that's fine. This Bill's offense is based upon the based

1879
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:24,960
Speaker 1: upon the passing attack. When you look at attacking the

1880
01:42:25,080 --> 01:42:29,240
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars defense, the one area on their defense that

1881
01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:31,240
Speaker 1: they were even in the top ten and there were

1882
01:42:31,640 --> 01:42:35,000
Speaker 1: number three league was darker, carrying him up and fun games.

1883
01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:36,640
Speaker 1: So they came to the game that we're gonna air

1884
01:42:36,720 --> 01:42:41,519
Speaker 1: it out, we're gonna test this Jaguars secondary. Well, when

1885
01:42:41,600 --> 01:42:44,840
Speaker 1: you are going to pass the ball virtually every single

1886
01:42:44,880 --> 01:42:46,559
Speaker 1: player and those guys know it's a pass, it could

1887
01:42:46,560 --> 01:42:48,760
Speaker 1: be a tough matchup up front, and you've got to

1888
01:42:48,840 --> 01:42:51,240
Speaker 1: do things to get rid of the ball faster in

1889
01:42:51,320 --> 01:42:53,760
Speaker 1: certain situations and when you don't have the opportunity to

1890
01:42:53,800 --> 01:42:57,040
Speaker 1: take the top off the defense because of this shell.

1891
01:42:58,320 --> 01:43:00,200
Speaker 1: You know, it's easy to say work in the un

1892
01:43:00,280 --> 01:43:03,000
Speaker 1: game more, but I think you need some quicker hitters.

1893
01:43:03,600 --> 01:43:05,720
Speaker 1: And then when those blitzes come, you've got to have

1894
01:43:05,920 --> 01:43:09,719
Speaker 1: answers to replace those guys with the blitz. Yeah, because

1895
01:43:10,120 --> 01:43:12,600
Speaker 1: I mean, it was evident that running the ball just

1896
01:43:12,800 --> 01:43:16,280
Speaker 1: wasn't going to happen. And I mean, nine carries for

1897
01:43:16,360 --> 01:43:20,599
Speaker 1: the two backs total in the game, it's pretty evident

1898
01:43:20,680 --> 01:43:22,880
Speaker 1: that that was not going to be a major part

1899
01:43:22,920 --> 01:43:25,000
Speaker 1: of the game plan anyway, for some of the reasons

1900
01:43:25,040 --> 01:43:28,439
Speaker 1: that you just outlined. But what I mean is that

1901
01:43:28,560 --> 01:43:30,479
Speaker 1: what basically is going to have to double as a

1902
01:43:30,600 --> 01:43:33,240
Speaker 1: run game going forward, knowing they're going to be seeing

1903
01:43:33,240 --> 01:43:35,960
Speaker 1: a lot of cover two shell, you know, when the

1904
01:43:36,040 --> 01:43:39,360
Speaker 1: game's to follow, because it's worked, it's done a good

1905
01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:43,040
Speaker 1: job of holding the points down on the Bill's scoring potential,

1906
01:43:43,400 --> 01:43:45,519
Speaker 1: so they're gonna just see more of it going forward,

1907
01:43:45,600 --> 01:43:48,479
Speaker 1: So they have to go to short routes. I'm guessing

1908
01:43:48,520 --> 01:43:51,080
Speaker 1: they're gonna need more hots, you know, So Josh has

1909
01:43:51,120 --> 01:43:57,639
Speaker 1: answers when the blitz does come or protection does break down, right, Yeah,

1910
01:43:57,640 --> 01:43:59,280
Speaker 1: I think your fair in saying that. I think you

1911
01:43:59,360 --> 01:44:02,720
Speaker 1: can get some you can also you get the run

1912
01:44:02,840 --> 01:44:05,519
Speaker 1: game going, you work Mackenzie in maybe a little bit

1913
01:44:05,600 --> 01:44:07,360
Speaker 1: more the way they did last year on some of

1914
01:44:07,400 --> 01:44:13,200
Speaker 1: the internet a little bit in that area last year

1915
01:44:13,200 --> 01:44:14,400
Speaker 1: as well, whe they can flip it to them where

1916
01:44:14,400 --> 01:44:16,559
Speaker 1: it's technically a pass, but they used to find digs

1917
01:44:16,600 --> 01:44:18,600
Speaker 1: in that roll a little bit last year. But you know,

1918
01:44:18,720 --> 01:44:22,320
Speaker 1: in a game where you have twelve penalties, three turnovers

1919
01:44:22,360 --> 01:44:25,360
Speaker 1: and four sacks, you know that's when you look at

1920
01:44:25,400 --> 01:44:27,400
Speaker 1: the stat sheet, it's gonna be very predictable that you're

1921
01:44:27,439 --> 01:44:30,120
Speaker 1: gonna have a bad offensive output. And when you combine

1922
01:44:30,200 --> 01:44:32,439
Speaker 1: that with the fact that the Bills went over one

1923
01:44:32,520 --> 01:44:34,599
Speaker 1: in their one trip to the red zone, they throw

1924
01:44:34,680 --> 01:44:38,880
Speaker 1: a pick on the Jacksonville side of the field to

1925
01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:41,840
Speaker 1: start the second half, and you have to settle for

1926
01:44:41,880 --> 01:44:43,519
Speaker 1: a field well at another time, you know, it's just

1927
01:44:44,400 --> 01:44:47,920
Speaker 1: it's a rough day. And really, when you combine the

1928
01:44:48,080 --> 01:44:52,360
Speaker 1: first half of the Miami game in this game, teams

1929
01:44:52,400 --> 01:44:55,400
Speaker 1: are gonna play copycat and you to your point, and

1930
01:44:56,040 --> 01:44:58,160
Speaker 1: when you said that, teams that you have to get

1931
01:44:58,160 --> 01:45:00,320
Speaker 1: a running game going, and teams are gonn play you

1932
01:45:00,439 --> 01:45:03,400
Speaker 1: in that shell. That's what Kansas City's dealing with right now.

1933
01:45:03,439 --> 01:45:05,960
Speaker 1: As well, and that's part of the reason why our

1934
01:45:05,960 --> 01:45:08,599
Speaker 1: sha mcdermay and Brandon being both said after the season

1935
01:45:08,720 --> 01:45:11,240
Speaker 1: last year that this run game needs to be more effective,

1936
01:45:11,600 --> 01:45:15,760
Speaker 1: probably seeing a trend and what could happen to this

1937
01:45:16,000 --> 01:45:19,640
Speaker 1: offense in the future, and not necessarily saying we got

1938
01:45:19,720 --> 01:45:21,960
Speaker 1: to run the ball more, but when we do, we

1939
01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:25,040
Speaker 1: have to make teams respect us when we do run football.

1940
01:45:25,240 --> 01:45:27,360
Speaker 1: What do you put make about the comments that you know,

1941
01:45:27,720 --> 01:45:29,840
Speaker 1: Poorer and Hide said, you know, they felt prepared, Maybe

1942
01:45:29,880 --> 01:45:32,719
Speaker 1: they just weren't ready. Jacksonville seemed like they had more energy.

1943
01:45:32,840 --> 01:45:34,920
Speaker 1: They just you know, the Bills just didn't match their

1944
01:45:34,960 --> 01:45:37,840
Speaker 1: intensity early in the game, and then when they didn't

1945
01:45:37,880 --> 01:45:39,840
Speaker 1: have a success, they didn't have any really anything to

1946
01:45:39,960 --> 01:45:44,000
Speaker 1: build an emotional you know, attack on. So what do

1947
01:45:44,040 --> 01:45:45,920
Speaker 1: you feel about, you know, the emotional state of the

1948
01:45:45,960 --> 01:45:47,719
Speaker 1: Bills going into that game, maybe showing up a little

1949
01:45:47,720 --> 01:45:51,880
Speaker 1: flat and then not having enough success to get it going. Yeah,

1950
01:45:51,920 --> 01:45:56,839
Speaker 1: it was interesting because I read after the Jack Griffin

1951
01:45:56,920 --> 01:45:59,800
Speaker 1: said that he could tell that the Bill sideline was down.

1952
01:46:00,040 --> 01:46:01,800
Speaker 1: They were walking around and they were using that as

1953
01:46:01,880 --> 01:46:04,600
Speaker 1: motivational I was down in the field pregame, and I

1954
01:46:04,640 --> 01:46:08,120
Speaker 1: can assure you that during warmups. It had very similar

1955
01:46:08,280 --> 01:46:11,200
Speaker 1: energy to other games I've been at down on the field,

1956
01:46:11,200 --> 01:46:14,320
Speaker 1: which is all the other games this season, if not more,

1957
01:46:14,439 --> 01:46:17,200
Speaker 1: because there were so many Bills fans in the stadium

1958
01:46:17,720 --> 01:46:20,519
Speaker 1: that they were interacting with the fans. The fans are

1959
01:46:20,560 --> 01:46:22,600
Speaker 1: going nuts when they're running out of the tunnel. The

1960
01:46:22,840 --> 01:46:25,439
Speaker 1: energy was their pregame. Now, I can say this from

1961
01:46:25,479 --> 01:46:27,400
Speaker 1: a curious and Steve you know this. As a game

1962
01:46:27,479 --> 01:46:32,400
Speaker 1: goes on and you're just struggling, You're nothing is going

1963
01:46:32,560 --> 01:46:35,800
Speaker 1: your way, and there's a penalty here, and there's a

1964
01:46:35,880 --> 01:46:38,920
Speaker 1: fumble there, and there's five more penalties here, you can

1965
01:46:39,000 --> 01:46:42,599
Speaker 1: get frustrated and you could be deflated. And I heard

1966
01:46:42,800 --> 01:46:45,720
Speaker 1: pour Yer and Hides comments. But to say that this

1967
01:46:45,920 --> 01:46:49,720
Speaker 1: team is unenthusiastic, not into it, I don't know that

1968
01:46:49,880 --> 01:46:52,080
Speaker 1: that's the case. Could they have done more throughout the

1969
01:46:52,120 --> 01:46:54,760
Speaker 1: week to prepare for this game? Only they know the

1970
01:46:54,840 --> 01:46:58,120
Speaker 1: answers to that, and by poor Year and Hide saying that,

1971
01:46:58,240 --> 01:47:00,600
Speaker 1: it's going to be easy to say, yes, that's the

1972
01:47:00,720 --> 01:47:03,880
Speaker 1: case from an emotional standpoint of getting ready for a

1973
01:47:04,000 --> 01:47:09,479
Speaker 1: game and coming out true, I'll say this, when I

1974
01:47:09,600 --> 01:47:11,280
Speaker 1: was standing there for pregame warm ups, I would have

1975
01:47:11,360 --> 01:47:14,320
Speaker 1: never gotten the sense of that. Going back to the

1976
01:47:14,400 --> 01:47:17,600
Speaker 1: run game real quick, Eric, there just seems to be

1977
01:47:18,320 --> 01:47:22,519
Speaker 1: a fair number of instances where there is penetration into

1978
01:47:22,560 --> 01:47:26,920
Speaker 1: the offensive backfield, and whether it's Singletary, whether it's Moss,

1979
01:47:27,640 --> 01:47:30,200
Speaker 1: they have to allude a defender before they even get

1980
01:47:30,240 --> 01:47:32,120
Speaker 1: to the line of scrimmage, let alone hit the hole

1981
01:47:32,120 --> 01:47:36,880
Speaker 1: they're supposed to on that play. I mean, I'm sure

1982
01:47:36,960 --> 01:47:41,000
Speaker 1: there's no easy answer in fixing that. It's just better execution, obviously,

1983
01:47:41,200 --> 01:47:45,479
Speaker 1: but how much is that compromising what they're trying to

1984
01:47:45,600 --> 01:47:48,600
Speaker 1: get done and at least trying to have opponents respect

1985
01:47:49,200 --> 01:47:52,479
Speaker 1: their run game. Yeah, well, it's hard to keep dialing

1986
01:47:52,560 --> 01:47:55,080
Speaker 1: up the run game and when you're seeing that, especially

1987
01:47:55,080 --> 01:47:57,080
Speaker 1: as an offensive cornator who's got the same view as

1988
01:47:57,600 --> 01:47:59,400
Speaker 1: we kind of do from the aerial view, when he

1989
01:47:59,439 --> 01:48:02,160
Speaker 1: gets to see that there's penetration on most the plays

1990
01:48:02,200 --> 01:48:06,479
Speaker 1: he calls now the one play where they tried to

1991
01:48:06,560 --> 01:48:09,280
Speaker 1: run a wham concept and Tommy Sweeney didn't get to

1992
01:48:09,360 --> 01:48:14,040
Speaker 1: the defensive tackle in time. You know, that's that's you know,

1993
01:48:14,600 --> 01:48:16,160
Speaker 1: that's kind of a risk of war play. In New

1994
01:48:16,200 --> 01:48:18,639
Speaker 1: England ran it a ton with Tom Brady. He's kind

1995
01:48:18,680 --> 01:48:21,360
Speaker 1: of going down in Tampa. Now, they like to isolate

1996
01:48:21,400 --> 01:48:24,040
Speaker 1: whoever the best defensive tackles. If you remember Kyle Williams

1997
01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:26,000
Speaker 1: over the years, where Gronk would kind of motion in,

1998
01:48:26,320 --> 01:48:28,200
Speaker 1: they'd let Kyle go up the field and then they'd

1999
01:48:28,240 --> 01:48:30,040
Speaker 1: wam them from the side. They call it the wham play.

2000
01:48:30,320 --> 01:48:33,240
Speaker 1: We tried to do that yesterday. Tommy Sweeney doesn't get

2001
01:48:33,240 --> 01:48:36,200
Speaker 1: there in time ton of penetration, it's always going to

2002
01:48:36,280 --> 01:48:38,400
Speaker 1: look bad for the offensive line. And I know Tommy

2003
01:48:38,400 --> 01:48:40,800
Speaker 1: Sweeney's kind of an extension of the offensive line. The

2004
01:48:40,920 --> 01:48:43,120
Speaker 1: question was just about the run blocking. I'm just taking

2005
01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:45,559
Speaker 1: an opportunity to defend the offensive line a little bit there.

2006
01:48:45,640 --> 01:48:49,160
Speaker 1: But in general, I don't know that they run the

2007
01:48:49,240 --> 01:48:53,280
Speaker 1: ball enough to find a true identity of a king.

2008
01:48:53,560 --> 01:48:55,800
Speaker 1: For instance, when we were with Greg Roman, we were

2009
01:48:55,960 --> 01:48:58,639
Speaker 1: better in the league than anybody at running power schemes

2010
01:48:58,680 --> 01:49:02,120
Speaker 1: while we ran more bid. When we had Chan Gailey,

2011
01:49:02,200 --> 01:49:04,439
Speaker 1: we were second in the league in yards per carry

2012
01:49:05,200 --> 01:49:07,840
Speaker 1: at least one year. I thought two years in a row.

2013
01:49:07,920 --> 01:49:10,120
Speaker 1: We were very good at inside zone. We ranted over

2014
01:49:10,200 --> 01:49:13,719
Speaker 1: and over and kind of finding out what this group's

2015
01:49:13,840 --> 01:49:18,360
Speaker 1: identity is in where they can get positive yards is

2016
01:49:19,040 --> 01:49:21,679
Speaker 1: a key here. Now. The kicker is when you're constantly

2017
01:49:21,760 --> 01:49:24,360
Speaker 1: having to move offensive lining around because of injury, you

2018
01:49:24,479 --> 01:49:26,560
Speaker 1: have a different tight end in there that could be

2019
01:49:26,640 --> 01:49:29,120
Speaker 1: tougher to do. And then just to follow up on that,

2020
01:49:29,400 --> 01:49:32,559
Speaker 1: because fans are saying this a lot, well, just get

2021
01:49:32,600 --> 01:49:36,760
Speaker 1: a different back, whatever, whatever, What about the thought of

2022
01:49:37,280 --> 01:49:42,040
Speaker 1: giving Matt Brita an opportunity, particularly maybe in some outside

2023
01:49:42,160 --> 01:49:45,720
Speaker 1: zone concepts, knowing his speed to the line would conceivably

2024
01:49:45,920 --> 01:49:50,960
Speaker 1: be better. Yeah, it's interesting because sometimes the faster backs

2025
01:49:51,000 --> 01:49:54,719
Speaker 1: are not the best in outside zone. But Matt Barreta

2026
01:49:54,800 --> 01:49:57,479
Speaker 1: has experienced in the outside zone, so I would say

2027
01:49:57,600 --> 01:50:01,240
Speaker 1: that he likely could be a fact. And when you're

2028
01:50:01,240 --> 01:50:06,240
Speaker 1: struggling in a certain area, this organization ran by Sean

2029
01:50:06,280 --> 01:50:09,519
Speaker 1: McDermot and Brandon Being will flip over stones. We've talked

2030
01:50:09,560 --> 01:50:11,360
Speaker 1: about it early in the season with the offensive line.

2031
01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:14,000
Speaker 1: They will make chains it and it would not surprise

2032
01:50:14,080 --> 01:50:16,680
Speaker 1: me to see Matt Rida in the line of kind

2033
01:50:16,720 --> 01:50:18,840
Speaker 1: of a funny note on the outside zone deal. We

2034
01:50:18,960 --> 01:50:21,880
Speaker 1: just all assumed Shady would be excellent at outside zone.

2035
01:50:21,960 --> 01:50:24,800
Speaker 1: He's fast, he's smart, he's got an incredible vision. He's

2036
01:50:24,880 --> 01:50:27,960
Speaker 1: ran inside zone throughout his career. In the first few

2037
01:50:28,000 --> 01:50:32,439
Speaker 1: games under Rick Dennison, Shady struggled so bad he couldn't

2038
01:50:32,479 --> 01:50:34,519
Speaker 1: do it. He was way too fast to the point,

2039
01:50:34,760 --> 01:50:37,519
Speaker 1: and I actually think Zach Moss is an incredible outside

2040
01:50:37,600 --> 01:50:41,800
Speaker 1: zone runner. Saw it last year against New England when

2041
01:50:42,200 --> 01:50:44,439
Speaker 1: in the first game against New England the Bills really

2042
01:50:44,479 --> 01:50:48,160
Speaker 1: committed to the run game, Zack Moss ran extremely well

2043
01:50:48,400 --> 01:50:50,800
Speaker 1: in the outside zone, which you would assume Singletary would

2044
01:50:50,840 --> 01:50:53,280
Speaker 1: be he's a little bit faster. But it was amazing

2045
01:50:53,720 --> 01:50:56,720
Speaker 1: how good Zack Moss was to me, because sometimes the

2046
01:50:56,920 --> 01:50:59,439
Speaker 1: slower back is a little bit better at finding the

2047
01:50:59,479 --> 01:51:02,519
Speaker 1: hole in the zone. Which all got the biggest kick

2048
01:51:02,600 --> 01:51:06,080
Speaker 1: out of that three or four games Mike Tulbert in

2049
01:51:06,240 --> 01:51:09,680
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, Mike Tulbert was gaining more yards Perkerry on

2050
01:51:09,720 --> 01:51:13,360
Speaker 1: outside zephan than the Shah McCoy, right, And that's the

2051
01:51:13,400 --> 01:51:15,040
Speaker 1: key to being a good coaching staff is to find

2052
01:51:15,080 --> 01:51:16,479
Speaker 1: on what your guys do and do well and give

2053
01:51:16,520 --> 01:51:18,640
Speaker 1: them a chance to do it. And that begs the

2054
01:51:18,720 --> 01:51:21,360
Speaker 1: question now with the Bills when they've struck three of

2055
01:51:21,479 --> 01:51:24,719
Speaker 1: the last four halves of football. They've played the first

2056
01:51:24,760 --> 01:51:26,840
Speaker 1: half of the Miami game and the two halves they

2057
01:51:26,920 --> 01:51:30,240
Speaker 1: played yesterday in Jacksonville have not been stellar offensive performance.

2058
01:51:30,280 --> 01:51:32,920
Speaker 1: So going forward, you know, how do you find what

2059
01:51:33,120 --> 01:51:36,360
Speaker 1: this team can do well? And how do you combat

2060
01:51:37,240 --> 01:51:40,400
Speaker 1: teams that are gonna send pressure no matter what, to

2061
01:51:40,479 --> 01:51:43,720
Speaker 1: get Josh Allen flushed out of the pocket or uncomfortable

2062
01:51:43,760 --> 01:51:45,600
Speaker 1: in the pocket. You know, to send the pressure that

2063
01:51:45,960 --> 01:51:48,479
Speaker 1: the Dolphins did, and now the Jaguars have done, what

2064
01:51:48,560 --> 01:51:52,800
Speaker 1: do you know? How do you counteract that. I'm not

2065
01:51:52,840 --> 01:51:54,920
Speaker 1: going to pretend to know half of what Dave Ball knows,

2066
01:51:55,240 --> 01:51:57,519
Speaker 1: but I would go at it in two different ways.

2067
01:51:57,520 --> 01:51:59,679
Speaker 1: And this was if you listen to the radio broadcast.

2068
01:51:59,720 --> 01:52:01,360
Speaker 1: I was talking about this in the second half. At

2069
01:52:01,439 --> 01:52:03,800
Speaker 1: times in my career when I was playing and from

2070
01:52:03,840 --> 01:52:06,960
Speaker 1: an offensive line standpoint, when it was hard to diagnose pressures,

2071
01:52:07,360 --> 01:52:10,640
Speaker 1: the wider you could get your receivers the better, or

2072
01:52:10,680 --> 01:52:13,280
Speaker 1: your formations, the wider you could get them, because then

2073
01:52:13,320 --> 01:52:15,800
Speaker 1: those guys eventually have to show themselves or else they'll

2074
01:52:15,840 --> 01:52:17,720
Speaker 1: never get home. So you either do it that way,

2075
01:52:18,200 --> 01:52:20,760
Speaker 1: or you can get bigger personnel, and you can get

2076
01:52:20,920 --> 01:52:24,680
Speaker 1: really big and run twenty one twenty two type personnels

2077
01:52:24,760 --> 01:52:28,480
Speaker 1: or twelve and in those formations you have more blockers,

2078
01:52:29,360 --> 01:52:31,880
Speaker 1: you're more sound on the edges. Now when you have

2079
01:52:32,000 --> 01:52:35,360
Speaker 1: Dawson knocks out, that makes that more of an issue.

2080
01:52:35,400 --> 01:52:40,200
Speaker 1: And that's because where exactly you're going to go, you know,

2081
01:52:40,280 --> 01:52:42,679
Speaker 1: and you have answers, you're gonna put an extra offensive linement.

2082
01:52:42,680 --> 01:52:44,759
Speaker 1: They showed yesterday if they're going to run twelve personnel,

2083
01:52:45,040 --> 01:52:47,160
Speaker 1: they were gonna do with Ryan Bates at tight end

2084
01:52:47,479 --> 01:52:49,720
Speaker 1: along with Tommy Sweeney in there. So you can go

2085
01:52:49,880 --> 01:52:52,040
Speaker 1: one of two ways with it. You can either spread

2086
01:52:52,080 --> 01:52:55,479
Speaker 1: them out or you can get bigger so you have

2087
01:52:55,600 --> 01:52:59,280
Speaker 1: the edges protected better. Yeah, and you know, we were

2088
01:52:59,320 --> 01:53:02,400
Speaker 1: trying to address that earlier in the show because people

2089
01:53:02,479 --> 01:53:05,400
Speaker 1: were like, why didn't they change anything offensively because they

2090
01:53:05,439 --> 01:53:08,559
Speaker 1: were an eleven personnel almost wire to wire in this game.

2091
01:53:09,080 --> 01:53:11,240
Speaker 1: And it was due in fact, due in part to

2092
01:53:11,320 --> 01:53:13,840
Speaker 1: the fact of first what you just said, if they

2093
01:53:13,880 --> 01:53:15,920
Speaker 1: were gonna go in twelve, they were gonna use a lineman,

2094
01:53:16,280 --> 01:53:18,439
Speaker 1: not a second tight end like a Holly Warring or

2095
01:53:18,920 --> 01:53:22,599
Speaker 1: or Reggie Gilliam. And then second, if you go into

2096
01:53:22,680 --> 01:53:26,080
Speaker 1: ten personnel, you don't have enough guys into block with

2097
01:53:26,160 --> 01:53:30,400
Speaker 1: the way they were protecting Josh or ineffective in protecting

2098
01:53:30,520 --> 01:53:34,040
Speaker 1: Josh So I don't know that that left Brian Dable

2099
01:53:34,080 --> 01:53:39,200
Speaker 1: with too many cards to play, right, right, No, you're

2100
01:53:39,240 --> 01:53:42,080
Speaker 1: exactly right. And they got to a screen to Zach

2101
01:53:42,200 --> 01:53:45,519
Speaker 1: Moss at one point. They tried the bubble screens early

2102
01:53:45,560 --> 01:53:48,000
Speaker 1: on in the game. But some quick hit or some screen,

2103
01:53:48,160 --> 01:53:51,840
Speaker 1: some draws. You know, there's a lot of answers. Part

2104
01:53:51,920 --> 01:53:54,080
Speaker 1: of what gets you two as an offensive coordinator is

2105
01:53:54,200 --> 01:53:56,160
Speaker 1: some of your actors go away. When you have so

2106
01:53:56,280 --> 01:53:58,519
Speaker 1: many ponies throughout the game as well, and when you

2107
01:53:58,600 --> 01:54:01,960
Speaker 1: have four sacks in your constant moving backwards, it becomes

2108
01:54:02,080 --> 01:54:05,560
Speaker 1: tougher to even make the calls that sometimes become answers

2109
01:54:06,600 --> 01:54:08,840
Speaker 1: to this game plan. You know, I think you can

2110
01:54:08,880 --> 01:54:12,320
Speaker 1: do some things with the RPO game, which is I

2111
01:54:12,400 --> 01:54:14,960
Speaker 1: covered college the last two years, and I know it's easier.

2112
01:54:15,040 --> 01:54:17,040
Speaker 1: There's more space on that college field, there's a lot

2113
01:54:17,160 --> 01:54:20,160
Speaker 1: less athletes. But you get to some of those RPO concepts,

2114
01:54:20,640 --> 01:54:22,920
Speaker 1: and you know, you put a lot of stress on

2115
01:54:22,960 --> 01:54:24,880
Speaker 1: the defense where they don't stack the box, you hand

2116
01:54:24,920 --> 01:54:27,559
Speaker 1: it off. If they bring pressure on the outside, then

2117
01:54:27,600 --> 01:54:30,120
Speaker 1: you can buzz the football quickly out on the edge.

2118
01:54:30,720 --> 01:54:32,640
Speaker 1: I know on offensive lineman don't love it because you

2119
01:54:32,680 --> 01:54:35,080
Speaker 1: can't necessarily get down the field. If you case, there's

2120
01:54:35,120 --> 01:54:38,440
Speaker 1: that throw that can be an answer. While there are answers,

2121
01:54:38,680 --> 01:54:42,480
Speaker 1: part of the answer is hurting yourself offensively and quit

2122
01:54:42,600 --> 01:54:44,920
Speaker 1: moving backwards so you can utilize all those answers and

2123
01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:47,120
Speaker 1: then all your answers don't become may we got to

2124
01:54:47,200 --> 01:54:49,440
Speaker 1: drop back because it's shooting. Even going back to the

2125
01:54:49,480 --> 01:54:51,640
Speaker 1: Miami game, it's third to eleven, it's third and thirteen,

2126
01:54:51,680 --> 01:54:54,200
Speaker 1: the third and fourteen yesterday, it's fourth and sixteen. At

2127
01:54:54,200 --> 01:54:57,120
Speaker 1: the end, it's third and nine. Before that, it's you know,

2128
01:54:57,280 --> 01:55:02,440
Speaker 1: it's a second and twenty five at one point, Yeah, exactly.

2129
01:55:02,640 --> 01:55:04,240
Speaker 1: And they had a third and thirty one as well

2130
01:55:04,280 --> 01:55:06,040
Speaker 1: that Josh picked up twenty two, and yeah, it was.

2131
01:55:06,160 --> 01:55:09,160
Speaker 1: It was an ugly day down in distance. And but

2132
01:55:09,680 --> 01:55:14,160
Speaker 1: let's go forward. If what would you anticipate happening. If

2133
01:55:14,680 --> 01:55:17,000
Speaker 1: I'd say Spencer Brown's back gets better, I know John

2134
01:55:17,040 --> 01:55:19,200
Speaker 1: Feliciano is going to be out for the foreseeable future,

2135
01:55:19,200 --> 01:55:22,080
Speaker 1: at least another couple of games. So Spencer Brown comes back,

2136
01:55:22,120 --> 01:55:24,720
Speaker 1: plays right tackle, and I guess Daryl Williams just moves

2137
01:55:24,760 --> 01:55:26,880
Speaker 1: down to right guard, and then what Butcker stays in

2138
01:55:26,960 --> 01:55:30,920
Speaker 1: a left guard. I guess, right, yeah, I would assume. So,

2139
01:55:31,320 --> 01:55:35,000
Speaker 1: you know, it's been a popular Twitter opinion today to

2140
01:55:35,040 --> 01:55:37,400
Speaker 1: give Ryan Bates a shot. And he looked pretty good

2141
01:55:37,400 --> 01:55:40,360
Speaker 1: in the preseason at center. I've never I have not

2142
01:55:40,520 --> 01:55:42,360
Speaker 1: seen a whole lot of him at guard. So I'm

2143
01:55:42,400 --> 01:55:44,360
Speaker 1: not gonna sit here and say that. You know, he

2144
01:55:44,560 --> 01:55:47,440
Speaker 1: just deserves a chance because they're watching him on a

2145
01:55:47,560 --> 01:55:49,960
Speaker 1: day to day basis. But if Spencer Brown could go

2146
01:55:50,080 --> 01:55:53,120
Speaker 1: this week, you bump Darry Williams back into right guard,

2147
01:55:53,480 --> 01:55:56,000
Speaker 1: and then you roll with Ike Bucker, and that's a

2148
01:55:56,080 --> 01:55:58,800
Speaker 1: pretty good starting offensive line in the NFL. I'm telling

2149
01:55:58,840 --> 01:56:02,200
Speaker 1: you right now, that's a that's I'm not gonna say

2150
01:56:02,240 --> 01:56:03,960
Speaker 1: it's one of the best. I got in trouble saying

2151
01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:07,680
Speaker 1: that last week, But that is a quality starting offensive

2152
01:56:07,720 --> 01:56:10,840
Speaker 1: line in this league. Now, from a protection standpoint, and

2153
01:56:10,920 --> 01:56:13,160
Speaker 1: get rid of the ball a little bit quicker. You

2154
01:56:13,200 --> 01:56:15,040
Speaker 1: can run the ball a little bit more, a little

2155
01:56:15,040 --> 01:56:18,560
Speaker 1: bit of screens, some draws, protect them a little bit,

2156
01:56:18,760 --> 01:56:20,760
Speaker 1: let them get their feet wet in this game. Maybe

2157
01:56:20,800 --> 01:56:23,280
Speaker 1: adding a little bit more play action, Maybe you go

2158
01:56:23,400 --> 01:56:25,400
Speaker 1: under center and run the football a little bit more.

2159
01:56:25,680 --> 01:56:27,840
Speaker 1: They showed last year that you know, when they went

2160
01:56:27,960 --> 01:56:30,040
Speaker 1: under center against New England, they can run the football

2161
01:56:30,040 --> 01:56:33,200
Speaker 1: there a little bit better. You know, I'm not in

2162
01:56:33,400 --> 01:56:37,960
Speaker 1: panic mode by any means, not really my nature. I

2163
01:56:38,040 --> 01:56:40,920
Speaker 1: have a ton of confidence that Brian day Ball and

2164
01:56:41,160 --> 01:56:44,240
Speaker 1: Josh will find answers to the blitz. And I'm not

2165
01:56:44,400 --> 01:56:46,920
Speaker 1: saying that they need to dedicate themselves to the run

2166
01:56:47,000 --> 01:56:49,160
Speaker 1: game right now. I think you can stick to the

2167
01:56:49,280 --> 01:56:53,320
Speaker 1: pass game, do what you've done all year, and find

2168
01:56:53,400 --> 01:56:57,480
Speaker 1: the answers to what's coming at you right now. But shoot,

2169
01:56:57,600 --> 01:56:59,960
Speaker 1: you're looking at I mean, there's a lot of people

2170
01:57:00,000 --> 01:57:02,200
Speaker 1: in Kansas City saying the same exact thing as Bills

2171
01:57:02,240 --> 01:57:04,640
Speaker 1: fans are right now. You know, they play a Packers

2172
01:57:04,680 --> 01:57:10,040
Speaker 1: team yesterday without Aaron Rodgers and only score thirteen points. Yeah,

2173
01:57:10,080 --> 01:57:13,480
Speaker 1: thirteen or fourteen? I think, yeah, yeah, thirteen or fourteen points.

2174
01:57:13,520 --> 01:57:16,320
Speaker 1: So you know it's uh, these these two the two

2175
01:57:16,400 --> 01:57:19,720
Speaker 1: most prolific offenses coming into the season, Both are reeling

2176
01:57:19,760 --> 01:57:22,320
Speaker 1: a little bit right now. But I got a lot

2177
01:57:22,360 --> 01:57:25,120
Speaker 1: of confidence that they'll get figured out. Yeah, thirteen points,

2178
01:57:25,200 --> 01:57:27,400
Speaker 1: they scored thirteen to seven. They beat the Packers up.

2179
01:57:28,040 --> 01:57:30,360
Speaker 1: Thanks thanks very much for the time. As always, we'll

2180
01:57:30,360 --> 01:57:32,400
Speaker 1: catch up with you next week. Hopefully we're talking about

2181
01:57:32,440 --> 01:57:36,120
Speaker 1: better things. Uh. One thing's for sure. They are facing

2182
01:57:36,200 --> 01:57:40,120
Speaker 1: the worst ranked defense in football this coming week, thirty

2183
01:57:40,200 --> 01:57:44,880
Speaker 1: second overall and thirty second in points allowed. We'll see

2184
01:57:44,880 --> 01:57:48,600
Speaker 1: if that holds up on Sunday. Thanks Eric, yep, take

2185
01:57:48,680 --> 01:57:51,920
Speaker 1: the over. Okay, thanks man. All right, that's Eric Wood

2186
01:57:52,040 --> 01:57:55,720
Speaker 1: joining us here. Yeah, I mean that's the facts. They're

2187
01:57:55,760 --> 01:58:00,480
Speaker 1: facing the worst defense in football. In terms of total defense,

2188
01:58:00,520 --> 01:58:03,320
Speaker 1: the Jets thirty second in the league. They're also thirty

2189
01:58:03,360 --> 01:58:07,520
Speaker 1: second in points allowed. They are twenty seventh against the run,

2190
01:58:08,080 --> 01:58:12,480
Speaker 1: twenty ninth against the past. They are nineteenth in sack percentage.

2191
01:58:12,840 --> 01:58:15,560
Speaker 1: They've given up the second most first downs in the league,

2192
01:58:15,880 --> 01:58:19,520
Speaker 1: sixteenth in the league on third down defense. So that's

2193
01:58:19,560 --> 01:58:22,480
Speaker 1: one area where they are middle of the pack. But

2194
01:58:23,200 --> 01:58:25,360
Speaker 1: that's not a good healthy game. I don't know what is. Well.

2195
01:58:25,760 --> 01:58:28,080
Speaker 1: I've heard that before, though, I mean, we've we've entered

2196
01:58:28,120 --> 01:58:30,280
Speaker 1: this stretch thinking you gotta go three and oz in

2197
01:58:30,320 --> 01:58:33,120
Speaker 1: this stretch and we've you know, we're one and one

2198
01:58:33,240 --> 01:58:36,120
Speaker 1: and one. That's it's not so I'm done looking at

2199
01:58:36,240 --> 01:58:38,720
Speaker 1: rankings and mid deciding how good or bad a team is.

2200
01:58:38,800 --> 01:58:42,160
Speaker 1: You got to I mean, if you haven't heard, I

2201
01:58:42,240 --> 01:58:48,360
Speaker 1: think you're five play better, five massive underdogs. One yesterday

2202
01:58:49,040 --> 01:58:51,680
Speaker 1: and you know the Jacksonville Jaguars were one of them.

2203
01:58:52,280 --> 01:58:57,280
Speaker 1: And so if you're gonna show up, you better show

2204
01:58:57,360 --> 01:58:59,080
Speaker 1: up and play well, because if you don't play well,

2205
01:58:59,080 --> 01:59:00,720
Speaker 1: you're gonna get beat. I don't care who it is.

2206
01:59:00,800 --> 01:59:05,280
Speaker 1: I've said this before. The difference between the thirty second

2207
01:59:05,360 --> 01:59:07,520
Speaker 1: ranked team in the NFL and the first ranked team

2208
01:59:07,640 --> 01:59:09,920
Speaker 1: is two percent of the total. Yeah, two percent, But

2209
01:59:09,960 --> 01:59:12,040
Speaker 1: there's a lot in that two percent, and a lot

2210
01:59:12,040 --> 01:59:13,520
Speaker 1: of it has to do with and all of it

2211
01:59:14,960 --> 01:59:17,200
Speaker 1: has to do with what happens on a Sunday afternoon

2212
01:59:17,760 --> 01:59:21,200
Speaker 1: when you got to show up and play. And yesterday

2213
01:59:21,280 --> 01:59:24,520
Speaker 1: the Jaguars won the majority of that two percent and

2214
01:59:24,640 --> 01:59:27,000
Speaker 1: they come out with a three point win. Yeah, you

2215
01:59:27,080 --> 01:59:29,920
Speaker 1: got you gotta hit on all cylinders and play well

2216
01:59:30,000 --> 01:59:31,880
Speaker 1: when you on the days you have games, you can't

2217
01:59:31,880 --> 01:59:34,280
Speaker 1: just practice well. And they were in alone because four

2218
01:59:34,360 --> 01:59:40,440
Speaker 1: teams that came into Sunday's games under five hundred, four

2219
01:59:40,520 --> 01:59:44,040
Speaker 1: of them beat division winners, and the Bills were one

2220
01:59:44,080 --> 01:59:46,840
Speaker 1: of those, or division leaders, I should say division leaders.

2221
01:59:47,360 --> 01:59:50,520
Speaker 1: So the Bills weren't the only upset of the weekend.

2222
01:59:50,520 --> 01:59:53,400
Speaker 1: There were three others on the docket as well. We

2223
01:59:53,480 --> 01:59:55,520
Speaker 1: will take a break here. When we come back, we'll

2224
01:59:55,520 --> 01:59:57,480
Speaker 1: take a look at that tweet sheet. See what you

2225
01:59:57,560 --> 02:00:01,040
Speaker 1: think on there as we're asking for your biggest takeaway

2226
02:00:01,440 --> 02:00:05,280
Speaker 1: from the Bills three point loss at the hands of Jacksonville.

2227
02:00:05,320 --> 02:00:07,080
Speaker 1: Back in a moment here on one Bill's Live, presented

2228
02:00:07,080 --> 02:00:21,320
Speaker 1: by Kalid to Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio, all right.

2229
02:00:21,360 --> 02:00:24,400
Speaker 1: Time to take a look at the tweet sheets, brought

2230
02:00:24,440 --> 02:00:28,480
Speaker 1: to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official equipment moving

2231
02:00:28,520 --> 02:00:30,760
Speaker 1: company of the Buffalo Bills. What's your biggest takeaway from

2232
02:00:30,760 --> 02:00:33,200
Speaker 1: the Bills nine six loss to the Jags. Bill's chick says,

2233
02:00:33,840 --> 02:00:36,320
Speaker 1: Davil needs to dial up more underneath routes, throw the

2234
02:00:36,360 --> 02:00:43,040
Speaker 1: digs underneath, maybe adding Isaiah on underneath throws so his

2235
02:00:43,640 --> 02:00:46,040
Speaker 1: ideas to get the ball out of Josh's hands fast faster.

2236
02:00:46,480 --> 02:00:52,640
Speaker 1: Bill's chick says that, yeah, I mean there are underneath

2237
02:00:52,760 --> 02:00:56,600
Speaker 1: routes that are being run. I guess with more frequency

2238
02:00:56,720 --> 02:00:59,880
Speaker 1: she's looking for. Rachel says, why can't we get dig

2239
02:01:00,000 --> 02:01:02,480
Speaker 1: He's more involved? I know he draws. The defense is focused,

2240
02:01:02,480 --> 02:01:04,680
Speaker 1: but elite receivers like dig should still be getting open

2241
02:01:04,720 --> 02:01:06,960
Speaker 1: in spite of that attention as Josh not seeing him.

2242
02:01:07,240 --> 02:01:10,920
Speaker 1: Hard to tell on television. You gotta be there. I

2243
02:01:11,080 --> 02:01:13,600
Speaker 1: know that. You know, Josh when he has forty seven

2244
02:01:13,640 --> 02:01:17,560
Speaker 1: pass attempts, Stefandi should be getting more than eight targets

2245
02:01:17,600 --> 02:01:21,520
Speaker 1: a game. He's averaging one a little over one target

2246
02:01:21,680 --> 02:01:23,880
Speaker 1: less per game than he did a year ago where

2247
02:01:23,920 --> 02:01:28,000
Speaker 1: he led the league end in catches and yards. So

2248
02:01:28,160 --> 02:01:31,400
Speaker 1: he's still involved. He is involved. He's really involved. But

2249
02:01:31,560 --> 02:01:33,360
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, more is better. I get it.

2250
02:01:33,760 --> 02:01:37,080
Speaker 1: But it's not like he's disappeared, and you can you

2251
02:01:37,120 --> 02:01:39,320
Speaker 1: can argue with me maybe yesterday where you think, well,

2252
02:01:39,320 --> 02:01:41,000
Speaker 1: they only started getting into him in the second half,

2253
02:01:41,040 --> 02:01:43,240
Speaker 1: that kind of thing. Okay, you can say whatever you

2254
02:01:43,280 --> 02:01:45,160
Speaker 1: want about when they get him the football or not,

2255
02:01:45,520 --> 02:01:49,320
Speaker 1: but he has not been forgotten. You know. Him and

2256
02:01:49,440 --> 02:01:53,000
Speaker 1: Josh are still best buds, you know, so I don't

2257
02:01:53,040 --> 02:01:56,080
Speaker 1: think there's anything between him. But yeah, he's averaging like

2258
02:01:56,320 --> 02:02:02,160
Speaker 1: one less target per game. Other than that, he's the

2259
02:02:02,200 --> 02:02:06,160
Speaker 1: same guy. And his yards per catch I think is

2260
02:02:06,240 --> 02:02:08,280
Speaker 1: up from where it was a year ago. So he's

2261
02:02:08,320 --> 02:02:12,080
Speaker 1: doing all right. But yeah, I'm a great player. More

2262
02:02:12,120 --> 02:02:16,160
Speaker 1: of him, the better. From Buffalo Bills Reddit, this is

2263
02:02:16,160 --> 02:02:18,600
Speaker 1: a game where we really needed the offensive line depth

2264
02:02:18,680 --> 02:02:20,480
Speaker 1: to step up, and they were just a wreck. There

2265
02:02:20,520 --> 02:02:24,520
Speaker 1: were issues in every offensive position group, but particularly the

2266
02:02:24,640 --> 02:02:27,800
Speaker 1: old line. I think we've covered that from Mac. They

2267
02:02:27,840 --> 02:02:30,240
Speaker 1: will continue to see two deep looks until they prove

2268
02:02:30,360 --> 02:02:33,120
Speaker 1: they can beat it. Based on yesterday's game, we seem

2269
02:02:33,640 --> 02:02:36,880
Speaker 1: clueless how to attack this day. Aside, if the old

2270
02:02:36,920 --> 02:02:40,040
Speaker 1: line doesn't improve, Josh is going to get hurt A

2271
02:02:40,200 --> 02:02:45,040
Speaker 1: side number two elite d Lineman eat our lunch. That's

2272
02:02:45,080 --> 02:02:47,800
Speaker 1: why they're elite, I mean, the most everybody's ever bas

2273
02:02:48,200 --> 02:02:49,600
Speaker 1: So you gotta have an answer for him. And yeah,

2274
02:02:49,680 --> 02:02:52,720
Speaker 1: you're right. And if you saw the Rams play last night,

2275
02:02:52,800 --> 02:02:55,360
Speaker 1: it's amazing. You know they've got they've got some guys.

2276
02:02:56,480 --> 02:02:57,920
Speaker 1: I mean, they've got some guys that are really going

2277
02:02:57,920 --> 02:03:02,040
Speaker 1: to sow. Does Tennessee Yeah, Jeffrey Simmons, Hello, Tennessee exploded

2278
02:03:02,080 --> 02:03:04,320
Speaker 1: onto the scene last night as well, played extremely well,

2279
02:03:04,680 --> 02:03:08,440
Speaker 1: um so, which means Tennessee looks like maybe as they

2280
02:03:08,520 --> 02:03:10,080
Speaker 1: played as good a game last night as I've seen

2281
02:03:10,200 --> 02:03:16,280
Speaker 1: people play. Although if you take two catastrophic Matt Stafford

2282
02:03:16,360 --> 02:03:21,960
Speaker 1: mistakes away they lose that game last night, the Tennessee Titans,

2283
02:03:22,920 --> 02:03:26,520
Speaker 1: spotting them fourteen points. Um, so you take those away

2284
02:03:26,560 --> 02:03:29,360
Speaker 1: in Tennessee, which means if Tennessee looks like this, just

2285
02:03:29,480 --> 02:03:31,680
Speaker 1: ind if Tennessee looks like the best team in the

2286
02:03:31,720 --> 02:03:35,880
Speaker 1: AFC Conference, they're gonna lose too straight. That's that's the

2287
02:03:35,920 --> 02:03:38,480
Speaker 1: way it works these days, right. I mean, anybody who

2288
02:03:38,520 --> 02:03:45,880
Speaker 1: looks really good, it's got week. Oh my gosh, it's maybe. Maybe.

2289
02:03:45,920 --> 02:03:49,160
Speaker 1: What that means is even the best teams in the

2290
02:03:49,240 --> 02:03:53,920
Speaker 1: AFC Conference this year have laws. Everybody's flawed. Yeah, maybe,

2291
02:03:54,400 --> 02:03:56,960
Speaker 1: I think. I think there's some pretty good teams out there.

2292
02:03:57,000 --> 02:03:58,760
Speaker 1: I you know, I the Bills are one of them.

2293
02:03:58,880 --> 02:04:00,800
Speaker 1: Tennessee's one of them, ball Ti More is one of them.

2294
02:04:02,200 --> 02:04:05,760
Speaker 1: Cleveland played good yesterday, Cincinnati played great up until two

2295
02:04:05,800 --> 02:04:08,640
Speaker 1: weeks ago. Now they stink. You know, they're five and

2296
02:04:08,760 --> 02:04:12,160
Speaker 1: four now, right, So you can say what you want.

2297
02:04:12,280 --> 02:04:14,880
Speaker 1: All these teams have it. And this is why the

2298
02:04:14,960 --> 02:04:17,280
Speaker 1: Bills maybe built. This is why Bills frands are so frustrated.

2299
02:04:17,640 --> 02:04:22,000
Speaker 1: They see the Bills, and you know, they see all

2300
02:04:22,000 --> 02:04:23,800
Speaker 1: these other teams. They say, when the Bills should, you know,

2301
02:04:23,960 --> 02:04:25,880
Speaker 1: should be good. But then they see all these other

2302
02:04:25,920 --> 02:04:30,320
Speaker 1: teams look great. Yeah, it's a hard team, hard league

2303
02:04:30,320 --> 02:04:32,200
Speaker 1: to win. In the Chargers, I mean, they were like

2304
02:04:32,960 --> 02:04:36,400
Speaker 1: they were crushing it. Now they've lost two in a row. Well,

2305
02:04:36,440 --> 02:04:39,080
Speaker 1: the Chargers won yesterday on a last second field goal,

2306
02:04:39,200 --> 02:04:41,440
Speaker 1: right right, you're talking about the Bengals, right, yeah, the

2307
02:04:41,480 --> 02:04:44,040
Speaker 1: Bengals were, yes, exactly. So you know, the Chargers look

2308
02:04:44,080 --> 02:04:46,160
Speaker 1: like they were gonna be unbeatable for a while. Now

2309
02:04:46,240 --> 02:04:48,080
Speaker 1: they I think they lost a couple of row before

2310
02:04:48,080 --> 02:04:50,520
Speaker 1: they won yesterday. I don't know whatever they you know,

2311
02:04:50,680 --> 02:04:54,360
Speaker 1: they've they've hit a swoon. Vegas. They just cut a

2312
02:04:54,480 --> 02:04:57,600
Speaker 1: first rounder today because of an Instagram post he posted

2313
02:04:58,920 --> 02:05:01,920
Speaker 1: two and two weeks, two first round picks and a

2314
02:05:02,000 --> 02:05:05,640
Speaker 1: head coach, and yet here they sit at five and three,

2315
02:05:06,200 --> 02:05:08,840
Speaker 1: still atop of the West, Pittsburgh coming on. They won

2316
02:05:08,960 --> 02:05:13,040
Speaker 1: three in a row. It's I mean, if you see

2317
02:05:13,080 --> 02:05:14,760
Speaker 1: these teams, it's a I mean we say it all

2318
02:05:14,760 --> 02:05:17,400
Speaker 1: the times a week to week league. You gotta play

2319
02:05:17,520 --> 02:05:20,840
Speaker 1: well on game day. The Bills are living proof of that.

2320
02:05:20,960 --> 02:05:23,240
Speaker 1: You gotta play well on game day, and even when

2321
02:05:23,280 --> 02:05:25,760
Speaker 1: you do, that's no guarantee that's gonna work. I Mean,

2322
02:05:25,800 --> 02:05:28,400
Speaker 1: the Bills had every reason to believe they should have

2323
02:05:28,440 --> 02:05:32,400
Speaker 1: beaten Tennessee. It was that close a game they lose.

2324
02:05:33,560 --> 02:05:36,720
Speaker 1: So even when you do play well, it's you know,

2325
02:05:37,360 --> 02:05:40,600
Speaker 1: it's not a guarantee from DJ. When your QB is

2326
02:05:40,680 --> 02:05:43,000
Speaker 1: under siege, your old line cannot stop a thing. So

2327
02:05:43,120 --> 02:05:46,000
Speaker 1: put QB under center. Two step drop short quick routes

2328
02:05:46,520 --> 02:05:49,960
Speaker 1: variation roll out QB too is right for short intermediate passes.

2329
02:05:50,680 --> 02:05:53,920
Speaker 1: Steve and Chris. Why did Davil and McDermott not do these?

2330
02:05:56,720 --> 02:05:59,760
Speaker 1: I mean, could they have put them under center more? Yeah,

2331
02:06:01,200 --> 02:06:03,360
Speaker 1: put him closer to the D line. I mean you

2332
02:06:03,520 --> 02:06:05,200
Speaker 1: could have done that. I don't know if it would

2333
02:06:05,200 --> 02:06:06,800
Speaker 1: have been as effective. I don't know what. I don't

2334
02:06:06,800 --> 02:06:09,800
Speaker 1: know why they think putting him up under center is

2335
02:06:10,520 --> 02:06:12,440
Speaker 1: a thing against a D line that they did it

2336
02:06:12,480 --> 02:06:16,200
Speaker 1: on occasion and ran a little play action not much, yeah,

2337
02:06:16,840 --> 02:06:19,520
Speaker 1: very little, but maybe there's some maybe play actions what

2338
02:06:19,600 --> 02:06:21,960
Speaker 1: they think it'll do for I will say last year, Steve,

2339
02:06:22,880 --> 02:06:25,240
Speaker 1: play action, even though this team did not run the

2340
02:06:25,280 --> 02:06:28,160
Speaker 1: ball effectively, was still effective in getting the linebackers to

2341
02:06:28,240 --> 02:06:31,200
Speaker 1: suck up right. We've talked to Greg Cosel about that

2342
02:06:31,240 --> 02:06:33,000
Speaker 1: all the time. Even the teams that don't run it well.

2343
02:06:33,360 --> 02:06:37,640
Speaker 1: Can still get linebackers to suck up on play action, Yeah,

2344
02:06:38,840 --> 02:06:40,880
Speaker 1: because all those linebackers are taught from the time they're

2345
02:06:40,880 --> 02:06:43,480
Speaker 1: eight years old. Is yeah, gotta stopped the rod. Play

2346
02:06:43,520 --> 02:06:47,040
Speaker 1: actions are a really nice effective predicting for Josh when

2347
02:06:47,080 --> 02:06:49,320
Speaker 1: he boots out the other way or whatever, because what

2348
02:06:49,480 --> 02:06:54,200
Speaker 1: happens is invariably if the edge defender or the last

2349
02:06:54,240 --> 02:06:57,520
Speaker 1: defender that they're going to leave free goes toward the

2350
02:06:57,640 --> 02:07:01,320
Speaker 1: play fake, he can't gather himself and get after Josh

2351
02:07:02,080 --> 02:07:03,960
Speaker 1: to get asked to get in the way because Josh

2352
02:07:04,120 --> 02:07:07,280
Speaker 1: is out. You know. Um, that gives Josh some time.

2353
02:07:08,680 --> 02:07:10,440
Speaker 1: It has its limitations. I don't know if you saw

2354
02:07:10,480 --> 02:07:13,600
Speaker 1: that game last night, Bryan Tannehill, Walt Waltz is into

2355
02:07:13,640 --> 02:07:16,200
Speaker 1: the end zone and the Rams had two guys that

2356
02:07:16,360 --> 02:07:18,920
Speaker 1: absolutely and this is a Tennessee one knocked the other

2357
02:07:18,960 --> 02:07:23,000
Speaker 1: one down. He knocked him down. We're gonna get him, yeah,

2358
02:07:23,320 --> 02:07:25,480
Speaker 1: and it ends up you know, Ryan Tannehill, you know,

2359
02:07:26,480 --> 02:07:29,320
Speaker 1: tinker bells into the end zone and it's like, why

2360
02:07:29,360 --> 02:07:31,480
Speaker 1: do you do they had him? I mean, you gotta

2361
02:07:31,600 --> 02:07:34,600
Speaker 1: know that if you're holding your responsibility and doing your job,

2362
02:07:34,640 --> 02:07:37,640
Speaker 1: you had him dead to rights. Yeah, that's a that's

2363
02:07:37,680 --> 02:07:41,520
Speaker 1: a crusher from Max. What's up with not using Gabe Davis?

2364
02:07:41,720 --> 02:07:43,960
Speaker 1: He could clearly help. Not really sure about his lack

2365
02:07:44,000 --> 02:07:46,440
Speaker 1: of utilization and the play calls in this one. We

2366
02:07:46,600 --> 02:07:49,000
Speaker 1: really couldn't find an answer to what Jacksonville was doing

2367
02:07:49,080 --> 02:07:52,160
Speaker 1: on defense or is it bad game planning slash willingness

2368
02:07:52,200 --> 02:07:56,120
Speaker 1: to adapt? I don't know. As we stated earlier, Davell

2369
02:07:56,200 --> 02:07:57,760
Speaker 1: was kind of hamstrung and what he could use in

2370
02:07:57,880 --> 02:08:02,400
Speaker 1: terms of personnel groupings because they couldn't protect well enough

2371
02:08:02,520 --> 02:08:05,920
Speaker 1: with their five guys up front, so very often they

2372
02:08:06,000 --> 02:08:08,000
Speaker 1: felt better when they had a tight end on the

2373
02:08:08,080 --> 02:08:11,040
Speaker 1: field to help in the blocking scheme and a back.

2374
02:08:11,640 --> 02:08:15,240
Speaker 1: So that takes four wide out of the equation in

2375
02:08:15,400 --> 02:08:18,880
Speaker 1: which Gabe Davis does get on the field. That's number

2376
02:08:18,920 --> 02:08:25,760
Speaker 1: one and number two is Emmanuel Sanders is here right? Yeah,

2377
02:08:26,360 --> 02:08:29,200
Speaker 1: They're not going to go four wide when they can't protect,

2378
02:08:30,320 --> 02:08:32,480
Speaker 1: and they couldn't. They didn't protect well enough. They tried

2379
02:08:32,480 --> 02:08:34,600
Speaker 1: to do that in week one and it didn't work. Right.

2380
02:08:34,840 --> 02:08:37,440
Speaker 1: They can't go four wide when they can't block them up,

2381
02:08:37,680 --> 02:08:40,680
Speaker 1: particularly a team like Pittsburgh or a team like anybody

2382
02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:44,840
Speaker 1: who gets quick pressure with four guys. That's the kind

2383
02:08:44,880 --> 02:08:48,840
Speaker 1: of the magic wand for defenses around the NFL. Now,

2384
02:08:48,920 --> 02:08:54,240
Speaker 1: the Bills are good up front, but they're good in

2385
02:08:54,320 --> 02:08:57,200
Speaker 1: the back end too, so that's one of the reasons

2386
02:08:57,280 --> 02:08:58,800
Speaker 1: that they're as good as everybody. And we don't get

2387
02:08:58,840 --> 02:09:01,840
Speaker 1: a lot of sacks, but we do get a lot

2388
02:09:01,920 --> 02:09:05,040
Speaker 1: of pressure and the quarterback is held in the pocket

2389
02:09:05,080 --> 02:09:08,680
Speaker 1: for the most part. So you know, I think you

2390
02:09:08,800 --> 02:09:13,800
Speaker 1: know the Bills. We're struggling with the pressure yesterday until

2391
02:09:13,840 --> 02:09:16,120
Speaker 1: they get that fixed. And on the occasions when they

2392
02:09:16,160 --> 02:09:18,600
Speaker 1: can get it fixed, everything else will take care of itself.

2393
02:09:18,920 --> 02:09:21,400
Speaker 1: But they can't get a defense out of a too

2394
02:09:21,520 --> 02:09:24,560
Speaker 1: deep shell. In the secondary, it's going to cause problems

2395
02:09:24,600 --> 02:09:26,480
Speaker 1: with stretching the field and getting guys open because they

2396
02:09:26,520 --> 02:09:30,040
Speaker 1: just won't be any space. Yeah, Ken says Running game

2397
02:09:30,120 --> 02:09:32,800
Speaker 1: needs to get fixed, even if it means Josh running more,

2398
02:09:33,280 --> 02:09:37,520
Speaker 1: which I am not an advocate of. So to fix it,

2399
02:09:37,840 --> 02:09:41,080
Speaker 1: do this, but I don't want you to. Yeah, if

2400
02:09:41,120 --> 02:09:42,600
Speaker 1: you have to do this to fix it, don't do it.

2401
02:09:42,680 --> 02:09:44,760
Speaker 1: This is what he's saying. If you have to run

2402
02:09:44,880 --> 02:09:46,720
Speaker 1: Josh more to fix the Running game, don't fix the

2403
02:09:46,840 --> 02:09:50,400
Speaker 1: Running game. Just throw it Yeah, okay, Dave says the

2404
02:09:50,520 --> 02:09:54,040
Speaker 1: offensive line allowed too many free defensive rush Here's my overreaction,

2405
02:09:54,160 --> 02:09:56,800
Speaker 1: Monday take is a fear of the old line struggles

2406
02:09:56,840 --> 02:09:59,400
Speaker 1: causing us to lose a playoff game against the team

2407
02:09:59,440 --> 02:10:02,000
Speaker 1: with a tough defensive line. I'll put my hand up.

2408
02:10:02,040 --> 02:10:05,560
Speaker 1: I share that concerned Dave, because we've got three physical

2409
02:10:05,600 --> 02:10:08,040
Speaker 1: defensive fronts that the Bills have had trouble against and

2410
02:10:08,160 --> 02:10:11,440
Speaker 1: they all resulted in losses this year Pittsburgh, Tennessee and

2411
02:10:11,640 --> 02:10:14,680
Speaker 1: Jacksonville yesterday. And this just in, most teams in the

2412
02:10:14,760 --> 02:10:17,080
Speaker 1: playoffs are pretty good on both sides of the ball.

2413
02:10:17,080 --> 02:10:19,160
Speaker 1: So you're gonna you know, you're gonna see one sooner

2414
02:10:19,280 --> 02:10:21,320
Speaker 1: or later in the playoffs, you're gonna see a good

2415
02:10:21,320 --> 02:10:23,920
Speaker 1: defensive front. Whether that's why coach yesterday said we gotta

2416
02:10:23,960 --> 02:10:27,520
Speaker 1: get some things fixed. Yeah, they gotta fix it. Shoebox

2417
02:10:27,600 --> 02:10:31,480
Speaker 1: says Isaiah McKenzie. Getting nineteen snaps and I think one

2418
02:10:31,560 --> 02:10:34,200
Speaker 1: touch is just ridiculous to me. I will say this, Steve,

2419
02:10:34,560 --> 02:10:39,800
Speaker 1: his role on offense has been reduced considerably from what

2420
02:10:39,920 --> 02:10:42,000
Speaker 1: it was last year. Now, maybe part of it is

2421
02:10:42,000 --> 02:10:44,440
Speaker 1: a byproduct to the fact that he's their primary return man.

2422
02:10:45,320 --> 02:10:48,160
Speaker 1: But if you're struggling on offense and he's an effective

2423
02:10:48,200 --> 02:10:52,000
Speaker 1: weapon to stretch defense is horizontally, which he unquestionably was

2424
02:10:52,120 --> 02:10:55,040
Speaker 1: last year, you may need to turn to that. I

2425
02:10:56,240 --> 02:11:00,200
Speaker 1: with the offensive line aside and getting that fixed, with

2426
02:11:00,280 --> 02:11:03,160
Speaker 1: their communication, with their matchups, and with their slides and

2427
02:11:03,200 --> 02:11:05,240
Speaker 1: with their calls, and getting all that ironed out as

2428
02:11:05,280 --> 02:11:07,640
Speaker 1: best as they can. One other thing I would I

2429
02:11:07,680 --> 02:11:09,960
Speaker 1: would say I would be open to trying, would be

2430
02:11:10,240 --> 02:11:13,520
Speaker 1: getting more guys at the skill positions involved. Give Isaiah

2431
02:11:13,560 --> 02:11:16,160
Speaker 1: McKenzie some snaps, Give Gabe Davis some snaps, because if

2432
02:11:16,200 --> 02:11:18,200
Speaker 1: you put those different guys out there, depending on the

2433
02:11:18,760 --> 02:11:21,320
Speaker 1: you know, the look and whatever Kumero took a couple

2434
02:11:21,320 --> 02:11:24,600
Speaker 1: of snap or two yesterday, the defense is gonna say, okay,

2435
02:11:24,680 --> 02:11:27,600
Speaker 1: now this is you know, Steph Diggs is not there anymore?

2436
02:11:27,600 --> 02:11:30,400
Speaker 1: Who's this guy and you know that kind of thing

2437
02:11:30,480 --> 02:11:32,640
Speaker 1: or that guy. But by the same token, if you

2438
02:11:32,720 --> 02:11:35,280
Speaker 1: put Gabe Dave, if you're gonna go eleven personnel or

2439
02:11:35,760 --> 02:11:39,760
Speaker 1: ten personnel, If you go eleven personnel and you put

2440
02:11:39,840 --> 02:11:42,720
Speaker 1: Gabe Davis and Isam McKenzie in, okay, you're gonna take

2441
02:11:42,760 --> 02:11:47,560
Speaker 1: out Cole Beasley and Emmanuel Sanders or Emmanuel Sanders and

2442
02:11:48,560 --> 02:11:51,960
Speaker 1: Steph Diggs. Somebody's gotta sit down or you're gonna take

2443
02:11:51,960 --> 02:11:53,920
Speaker 1: off Dawson Knox when he comes back healthy, gonna take

2444
02:11:53,920 --> 02:11:56,320
Speaker 1: the tight end off and put go four wide. And

2445
02:11:56,600 --> 02:11:59,160
Speaker 1: somebody's got to come off the field. So if you're

2446
02:11:59,160 --> 02:12:01,320
Speaker 1: gonna give those guys snaps, you're taking them away from

2447
02:12:01,320 --> 02:12:04,320
Speaker 1: somebody else. And you know, Cole Beasley is just as

2448
02:12:04,360 --> 02:12:07,840
Speaker 1: effective as any of these guys, So you know, take

2449
02:12:07,880 --> 02:12:10,760
Speaker 1: your pick, and that's that's why they're sitting on the

2450
02:12:10,800 --> 02:12:12,640
Speaker 1: bench in the first place. To get on the field,

2451
02:12:12,680 --> 02:12:16,640
Speaker 1: you gotta take somebody who's really good off. That's a

2452
02:12:16,720 --> 02:12:20,440
Speaker 1: hard that's a hard puzzle to solve. Yeah, break time

2453
02:12:20,480 --> 02:12:22,560
Speaker 1: for us here, Steve and I will close it up

2454
02:12:22,560 --> 02:12:24,760
Speaker 1: when we return here on One Bill's Live presented by

2455
02:12:24,840 --> 02:12:39,200
Speaker 1: Kalaida Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right, welcome back

2456
02:12:39,200 --> 02:12:41,760
Speaker 1: to One Bills Live. One thing to keep your eye

2457
02:12:41,840 --> 02:12:46,320
Speaker 1: on this afternoon. The waiver period opens at four pm

2458
02:12:46,440 --> 02:12:49,960
Speaker 1: for one Odell Beckham Junior, the team that's first in

2459
02:12:50,000 --> 02:12:52,640
Speaker 1: the waiver order lists. They've already said we're not gonna

2460
02:12:52,680 --> 02:12:56,360
Speaker 1: bother Lion's head coach Dan Campbell says they won't be

2461
02:12:56,440 --> 02:13:00,520
Speaker 1: in the market for Odell Beckham junior. They are first

2462
02:13:00,560 --> 02:13:03,200
Speaker 1: in the waiver order. Okay. Having the worst record in

2463
02:13:03,200 --> 02:13:06,800
Speaker 1: the league right now, good for them. As Steve pointed out,

2464
02:13:07,680 --> 02:13:11,240
Speaker 1: the Raiders have cut former first round draft choice Damon Arnette,

2465
02:13:11,240 --> 02:13:16,800
Speaker 1: the cornerback made online threats after a pretty tumultuous week

2466
02:13:16,840 --> 02:13:19,240
Speaker 1: for the Raiders already in which they had to release

2467
02:13:19,320 --> 02:13:23,560
Speaker 1: Henry Ruggs. So two first round draft choices now no

2468
02:13:23,800 --> 02:13:26,880
Speaker 1: law and still on their rookie contracts now no longer

2469
02:13:26,920 --> 02:13:29,760
Speaker 1: a part of the Raiders organization. So a rough month

2470
02:13:29,840 --> 02:13:34,280
Speaker 1: for that club. Tumultuous to say the least. Trevor Lawrence,

2471
02:13:34,400 --> 02:13:37,760
Speaker 1: if you remember, did sustain an ankle injury in the

2472
02:13:37,800 --> 02:13:40,120
Speaker 1: game yesterday. He left the game near the end of

2473
02:13:40,120 --> 02:13:44,280
Speaker 1: the first half, returned in the second half. It's looking

2474
02:13:44,360 --> 02:13:46,960
Speaker 1: like he's going to be okay going forward, get treatment

2475
02:13:47,000 --> 02:13:48,760
Speaker 1: on it this week and be good to go. Doesn't

2476
02:13:48,800 --> 02:13:52,280
Speaker 1: look like he's gonna miss any time. The forty nine

2477
02:13:52,360 --> 02:13:58,160
Speaker 1: ers injury situation continues. They have lost offensive tackle Mike

2478
02:13:58,280 --> 02:14:04,360
Speaker 1: McGlinchey for the season tore his quad out for the year.

2479
02:14:05,200 --> 02:14:09,320
Speaker 1: So a team that had their season go sideways last

2480
02:14:09,400 --> 02:14:13,240
Speaker 1: year due to injury, is now experiencing more here this season.

2481
02:14:13,360 --> 02:14:15,440
Speaker 1: That's a tough one. You're starting right tackle done for

2482
02:14:16,200 --> 02:14:19,080
Speaker 1: the year. So just some things that are going on

2483
02:14:19,160 --> 02:14:21,160
Speaker 1: around the league. We didn't do NFL News and Notes

2484
02:14:21,160 --> 02:14:25,000
Speaker 1: at the top of the show for obvious reasons. But yeah,

2485
02:14:25,200 --> 02:14:27,960
Speaker 1: that's the scene, and then we're also the thing that

2486
02:14:28,000 --> 02:14:29,440
Speaker 1: the Bills fans are gonna want to keep an eye

2487
02:14:29,480 --> 02:14:32,200
Speaker 1: on this week, Steve is the status of Zach Wilson.

2488
02:14:32,600 --> 02:14:37,240
Speaker 1: He's expected to return to practice this week, but the

2489
02:14:37,360 --> 02:14:40,920
Speaker 1: reports aren't don't necessarily expect him to be back in

2490
02:14:40,960 --> 02:14:43,800
Speaker 1: the starting lineup. It looks like Mike White may get

2491
02:14:43,800 --> 02:14:47,160
Speaker 1: another start as Zach Wilson works his way back to

2492
02:14:47,280 --> 02:14:51,920
Speaker 1: one hundred percent. No, that's just the worst they're gonna come.

2493
02:14:52,240 --> 02:14:55,320
Speaker 1: The Jets will show up like not even like barely

2494
02:14:55,400 --> 02:14:57,760
Speaker 1: able to field a team, and they're gonna put forth

2495
02:14:57,840 --> 02:15:02,840
Speaker 1: this huge inhuman effort argantuan against the Bills. They're like

2496
02:15:03,240 --> 02:15:07,200
Speaker 1: everybody and their own families will count them out, oh

2497
02:15:07,280 --> 02:15:10,560
Speaker 1: my gosh, and then they'll be galvanizing our locker room

2498
02:15:10,600 --> 02:15:14,400
Speaker 1: and come out and having They'll score fifty points on

2499
02:15:14,440 --> 02:15:16,400
Speaker 1: the number one defense and they'll hold his score, they'll

2500
02:15:16,400 --> 02:15:19,600
Speaker 1: be fifteen another somebody that's what's gonna just never knows

2501
02:15:19,720 --> 02:15:22,520
Speaker 1: that kind of year. It is that kind of year.

2502

Speaker 1: Tomorrow's show begins at one pm, and we'll get our
