<v Speaker 1>healthcare providers of the Buffalo Bills. Where please again to

0:00:38.120 --> 0:00:40.720
<v Speaker 1>be joining Sean McDermott. After a nice win, These wins

0:00:40.760 --> 0:00:42.720
<v Speaker 1>are kind of getting the same, but couldn't it be

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:45.880
<v Speaker 1>just a little easier? And this was a they always

0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:48.840
<v Speaker 1>seem to be a little bit harrowing up until late. Yeah,

0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:53.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's uh, I wish right. Like I said yesterday,

0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:56.440
<v Speaker 1>I lost enough hair by now and there's not much

0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:59.040
<v Speaker 1>more left up there to lose. But a wins I'll win.

0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:00.800
<v Speaker 1>And you know, we can learn a lot from this

0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:03.040
<v Speaker 1>past weekend and we move on to the next week

0:01:03.080 --> 0:01:05.240
<v Speaker 1>and so but we've got to continue to learn, continue

0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:07.039
<v Speaker 1>to grow. There were some really good moments in the game.

0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:09.160
<v Speaker 1>I thought it'd showed the heart of our football team, Yeah,

0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:11.680
<v Speaker 1>of course. Oh and five, the fans have some expectations

0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:13.520
<v Speaker 1>about what you should be able to do against the Dolphins,

0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:15.920
<v Speaker 1>But then they start Ryan Fitzpatrick, and you know what

0:01:16.040 --> 0:01:18.119
<v Speaker 1>kind of leader he is. You knew you got an

0:01:18.120 --> 0:01:20.320
<v Speaker 1>effort from the rest of their roster that really told

0:01:20.319 --> 0:01:22.560
<v Speaker 1>you that they think Ryan Fitzpatrick was the guy that

0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:24.399
<v Speaker 1>should have been starting, and they gave an effort, really

0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:26.520
<v Speaker 1>their best effort of the season. If you watch them

0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:30.399
<v Speaker 1>on film, Yeah, I mean knowing Ryan a little bit

0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:33.319
<v Speaker 1>or what I've heard about him since myself coming to

0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:35.720
<v Speaker 1>Buffalo with our staff, and you watch him on film

0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:38.360
<v Speaker 1>and there's nothing but respect that jumps off the tape

0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:40.360
<v Speaker 1>at you for what he does, how he plays, and

0:01:40.440 --> 0:01:43.200
<v Speaker 1>so he rallies the troops and that's what he did

0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:46.200
<v Speaker 1>yesterday and we expected that quite honestly, and so it

0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:47.960
<v Speaker 1>was good to get and win. I think again, we've

0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:49.720
<v Speaker 1>learned a lot. We learned a lot from that, from

0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:51.480
<v Speaker 1>that victory and from that game, and but a lot

0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:53.480
<v Speaker 1>of respect for every opponent. And that's why the NFL

0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:55.080
<v Speaker 1>is a week to weekly Yeah, and a lot of

0:01:55.080 --> 0:01:57.400
<v Speaker 1>games this year we've had this kind of identity with

0:01:57.400 --> 0:01:58.680
<v Speaker 1>these games. You get off to a little bit of

0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:00.720
<v Speaker 1>a slow start and then you kind of come through

0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:02.440
<v Speaker 1>in the clutch. This game, you got off to the

0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:05.080
<v Speaker 1>slow start, particularly red zone offense came out a couple

0:02:05.080 --> 0:02:07.520
<v Speaker 1>of field goals to get started in a season where

0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:09.800
<v Speaker 1>you've been very good in the red zones at an offense,

0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:12.400
<v Speaker 1>you kind of came up short Sunday. What was that?

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:13.679
<v Speaker 1>You know, what were the reasons for that and what

0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:15.440
<v Speaker 1>did you do about it? Yeah? You know, I think

0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:17.720
<v Speaker 1>when you look back at it and Steve, it's we

0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:20.840
<v Speaker 1>had we had success controlling the game early. We controlled

0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.160
<v Speaker 1>the game I thought early, and then we came up

0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:26.200
<v Speaker 1>short on two drives. We got points, but it wasn't

0:02:26.200 --> 0:02:29.040
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown. So what that allows a team to do

0:02:29.160 --> 0:02:31.239
<v Speaker 1>is hanging the game and so then all it takes

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:32.880
<v Speaker 1>us for them to get one drive and a score

0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:35.240
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown on this case and they're up seven to six.

0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:37.720
<v Speaker 1>And so it just speaks to the importance of playing

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:39.840
<v Speaker 1>good red zone offense and then good red zone defense

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:41.400
<v Speaker 1>as well. Yeah, this came up. It was in like

0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:43.600
<v Speaker 1>so many games this year, it was a second half game.

0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:46.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it came out. You made some adjustment adjustments

0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:49.679
<v Speaker 1>at halftime and certainly it showed up big on both

0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:51.079
<v Speaker 1>sides of the football. What did you what was the

0:02:51.120 --> 0:02:53.560
<v Speaker 1>message overall to your team at halftime? You know, really

0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:56.320
<v Speaker 1>the players did at all. We made some adjustments as

0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:59.080
<v Speaker 1>a staff, both offensively, defensively and special teams, and the

0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:02.079
<v Speaker 1>players and the player driven leadership in our locker room

0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:04.160
<v Speaker 1>stepped up. And that's what you saw in the second half.

0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:06.359
<v Speaker 1>You know, this game is going to be defined by

0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:09.680
<v Speaker 1>one sweet sequence of events. Certainly a great Jordan Phillips

0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:11.520
<v Speaker 1>with the tackle for a loss to move the Miami

0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:13.680
<v Speaker 1>Dolphins off your goal line, and the next play trade

0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:16.160
<v Speaker 1>picks it off on the two yard line, and then

0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.640
<v Speaker 1>followed up by ninety eight yard touchdown drive by your offense.

0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:22.799
<v Speaker 1>So all it really came together, played complimentary football. But

0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:24.800
<v Speaker 1>that's going to define this game, Yeah, I think. So

0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:27.000
<v Speaker 1>there's plays is going to define games, and there's games

0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:31.040
<v Speaker 1>that define seasons. And so when you look back at it,

0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:33.080
<v Speaker 1>I'll take it one step further, Steven, say the fake

0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:36.440
<v Speaker 1>field goal that our special teams unit, Yeah, they got

0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:38.560
<v Speaker 1>the first down, but we stopped them from scoring a

0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:40.760
<v Speaker 1>touchdown on that play, which allowed us to line up again,

0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:43.680
<v Speaker 1>led to Jordan, led to trades play and then ensuing

0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:46.560
<v Speaker 1>ninety eight yard drive, which is impressive. Yeah, this game,

0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:49.160
<v Speaker 1>Josh came out on the second half, went ten of

0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:53.440
<v Speaker 1>eleven for two tds, had a two point conversion. Certainly

0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>he turned it around it. I know it's early, and

0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I know we like to project things we'd love to

0:03:57.640 --> 0:03:59.520
<v Speaker 1>see about this guy, But does he have this clutch

0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:01.520
<v Speaker 1>gene we hear you so much about. I mean, because

0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.200
<v Speaker 1>he plays his best football in the second half of games,

0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:06.160
<v Speaker 1>and you've been in so many close games those four

0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:08.320
<v Speaker 1>in the season, he has played his best football when

0:04:08.720 --> 0:04:11.160
<v Speaker 1>the pressure is on, or at least as fans, we

0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:13.720
<v Speaker 1>feel the pressure. Yeah, and I feel the pressure too,

0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:17.280
<v Speaker 1>right with the fans. No, it's listen. You know we've

0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:19.760
<v Speaker 1>got it. Still a young quarterback and overall a young

0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:22.240
<v Speaker 1>football team, and there's going to be close games. That's

0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:23.960
<v Speaker 1>the nature of the NFL to begin with, and that's

0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:25.800
<v Speaker 1>the nature of our football team and where we are.

0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:28.200
<v Speaker 1>The thing I love about is they play together and

0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:30.599
<v Speaker 1>they stay together. Yeah, you've had a couple of guys

0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:33.040
<v Speaker 1>and you've always said you'd like to have veteran leadership

0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:36.000
<v Speaker 1>on your squad. This last game, Cole Beasley, John Brown

0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:39.880
<v Speaker 1>both have a t D. And you've got veterans sprinkled

0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:42.719
<v Speaker 1>throughout your roster, and every so often we see evidence

0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:45.040
<v Speaker 1>that those guys are really important beyond what they do

0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:47.520
<v Speaker 1>on the field. Yeah true. I mean Lee Smith, Pat

0:04:47.560 --> 0:04:51.440
<v Speaker 1>de Marco, Lorenzo, Alexander Stephen Hous just to name a few,

0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:56.600
<v Speaker 1>and I'm leaving some out, So Kurt Coleman, We've just

0:04:56.640 --> 0:04:59.120
<v Speaker 1>got We've got a good group of veteran leaders that

0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:01.359
<v Speaker 1>have been there and on that in some way, shape

0:05:01.440 --> 0:05:04.839
<v Speaker 1>or form, and they're really running the team, if you will.

0:05:04.880 --> 0:05:06.720
<v Speaker 1>And I can bank on those guys to give me

0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:08.360
<v Speaker 1>a good feel for the pulse of the team and

0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:11.040
<v Speaker 1>make sure the team is being steered in the right direction.

0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:13.120
<v Speaker 1>And when we get off off track a little bit,

0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:16.400
<v Speaker 1>and then those guys, those guys take command and step up.

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:18.200
<v Speaker 1>All right, Sean. Thanks, We're gonna come back and join

0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:21.760
<v Speaker 1>you more later in the show and get some final thoughts. Choppin'

0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:26.360
<v Speaker 1>Wood is presented by Saint Bonaventure University, the official education

0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:30.920
<v Speaker 1>provider of the Buffalo Bills. Welcome back to the Sean

0:05:31.000 --> 0:05:34.240
<v Speaker 1>mcdermost Show. Everybody. We're here with our segment we called Choppin'

0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:37.080
<v Speaker 1>Wood Eric Wood, great call on the radio on Sunday

0:05:37.080 --> 0:05:39.679
<v Speaker 1>against the Dolphins, but it was a surprisingly close game

0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:43.039
<v Speaker 1>there in New Airfield. It was, and most games in

0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:45.760
<v Speaker 1>the NFL are decided by one score or less, and

0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:48.480
<v Speaker 1>no matter who the opponent is, these are NFL teams

0:05:48.480 --> 0:05:51.960
<v Speaker 1>and Ryan Fitzpatrick has a way of unifying a team

0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:55.039
<v Speaker 1>of no name characters. I played on one with them

0:05:55.160 --> 0:05:57.560
<v Speaker 1>when we started the season five and two with a

0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:00.599
<v Speaker 1>team in twenty eleven that I don't think anybody could

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 1>have named any of our receivers, maybe just Stevie heading

0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:05.160
<v Speaker 1>into the season. So he has that ability and he showed.

0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Fortunately for the Bills, Trey White made a couple incredible players.

0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:11.719
<v Speaker 1>They try and run a play action come back to

0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:15.240
<v Speaker 1>the boundary and the entire game, Ryan Fitzpatrick was throwing

0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:18.760
<v Speaker 1>at lee By Wallace. He was attacking that matchup and

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:21.800
<v Speaker 1>it's a size thing. I mean, Preston Williams is six five,

0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:24.360
<v Speaker 1>Vonte Parker six three. That's a tough matchup for any

0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:27.760
<v Speaker 1>corner and Trey White is absolutely elite. So he was

0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:31.039
<v Speaker 1>going out le By Wallace. Society finally tests Trey White

0:06:31.040 --> 0:06:33.120
<v Speaker 1>and Trey White makes him pay. And what is just

0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:36.720
<v Speaker 1>an absolutely phenomenal play on this comeback. He runs the

0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:39.359
<v Speaker 1>route for the receiver, which is probably a testament to

0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:43.080
<v Speaker 1>his film study, and then he has the athleticism and

0:06:43.680 --> 0:06:46.279
<v Speaker 1>skills to make this play. Yeah. He's got the most

0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:49.680
<v Speaker 1>second half turnovers in the National Football League with fourteen

0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:52.680
<v Speaker 1>since he came into the league. He's just a dominant performer.

0:06:52.720 --> 0:06:54.800
<v Speaker 1>And he really came through and that led to a

0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:57.120
<v Speaker 1>second turnover in the second half that really changed the

0:06:57.160 --> 0:06:59.720
<v Speaker 1>game and gave the Bills a chance to put it away.

0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:03.520
<v Speaker 1>That ninety eight yard drive right after that turnover was

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:05.520
<v Speaker 1>really a defining moment as well. Yeah, so they're going

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:08.480
<v Speaker 1>to ninety eight yard drive, scoring drive. They finally get

0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:11.080
<v Speaker 1>seven points on the board, actually eight with the two

0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:14.200
<v Speaker 1>point conversion, and then the next possession the Dolphins get

0:07:14.240 --> 0:07:17.920
<v Speaker 1>the ball and unfortunately for my man fitz he he

0:07:18.000 --> 0:07:21.920
<v Speaker 1>goes back to Trey Whiteside, and Trey allows the receiver

0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:23.920
<v Speaker 1>to catch the ball here over the middle and then

0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:26.280
<v Speaker 1>does a great job of punching it out. One of

0:07:26.320 --> 0:07:29.000
<v Speaker 1>my favorite things about this play is Jerry Hughes is

0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:32.679
<v Speaker 1>always flying around the football field the entire game. Of course,

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.200
<v Speaker 1>he's flying back to the football and when the ball

0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:37.840
<v Speaker 1>gets punched out, who gets at Jerry Hughes. And I'm

0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:40.600
<v Speaker 1>not so sure Jerry Hughes only played lineman throughout his life.

0:07:40.760 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 1>I think he probably played running back or something in

0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:45.840
<v Speaker 1>high school. Showed some great skills and at this point

0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:48.960
<v Speaker 1>I thought he might drag them all into the episode.

0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:52.800
<v Speaker 1>He has such a determination. Phenomenal play by Tradevious White,

0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:56.040
<v Speaker 1>excellent effort by Jerry Hughes. All right, let's switch over

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:58.200
<v Speaker 1>to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Week eight opponent for the

0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:00.040
<v Speaker 1>Buffalo Bills. For a long time. Now you think of

0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.480
<v Speaker 1>the Eagles, you think of backs like Darren Sprowles featured

0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:04.160
<v Speaker 1>in the passing game. But they have two guys coming

0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:06.280
<v Speaker 1>out of the backfield and Miles Sanders and Jordan Howard,

0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:08.520
<v Speaker 1>which really should be a problem for the Bills, or

0:08:08.600 --> 0:08:10.840
<v Speaker 1>could be. It could be, especially if they have Matt

0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:13.880
<v Speaker 1>Mulano out against again this week. Last week we saw

0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:16.880
<v Speaker 1>the Dolphins. We're able to have some more run success

0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:18.840
<v Speaker 1>with Matt Mulano out that we're used to seeing the

0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:22.200
<v Speaker 1>Bills defense, And here we will see how dangerous the

0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Eagles can be with the running backs in the passing

0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:27.680
<v Speaker 1>game and they run Sanders up the seam here, and

0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:31.240
<v Speaker 1>this is a tough concept. It's not a traditional wheel

0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:33.800
<v Speaker 1>up the sideline. It's right up the seam, and he

0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 1>shows his speed and he burns the linebacker for Detroit.

0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:39.760
<v Speaker 1>If you're gonna have guys in to stop the run,

0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:41.720
<v Speaker 1>they've also got to be in pass coverage and this

0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:44.319
<v Speaker 1>is where the linebacker just gets out run he does.

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:47.160
<v Speaker 1>And this is also a great play concept. They bring

0:08:47.200 --> 0:08:50.640
<v Speaker 1>the JetSuite motion, which causes stress on the linebackers. They

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:53.240
<v Speaker 1>have to respect that. And then you have zach Ertz,

0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:56.240
<v Speaker 1>who's their leading receiver. He's running across the middle. He

0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.400
<v Speaker 1>garners a lot of attention as well, and then you

0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:00.599
<v Speaker 1>almost forget about the running back he's going up to

0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:04.280
<v Speaker 1>seem this is a big explosive play. Another running back

0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:06.400
<v Speaker 1>they've got coming out of the backfield is Jordan Howard.

0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:09.400
<v Speaker 1>Here he runs the wheel route t D versus Green Bay.

0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:11.640
<v Speaker 1>This is a little bit of a scheme get open,

0:09:11.720 --> 0:09:15.199
<v Speaker 1>but it works. Yeah. So this is a great use

0:09:15.240 --> 0:09:17.440
<v Speaker 1>of a i will say legal pick. So you have

0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:19.720
<v Speaker 1>two guys coming across the top of the formation, the

0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:22.200
<v Speaker 1>receiver and the tight end zach Ertz, and it's man

0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:25.280
<v Speaker 1>to man coverage. This is Mike Petton's Green Bay defense.

0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:29.200
<v Speaker 1>When they are in a bearer look. Traditionally a bearer

0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:32.320
<v Speaker 1>look with the three interior lineman covered, it's going to

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.560
<v Speaker 1>be man defense. That's a Buddy Ryan Rex Ryan deal.

0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:38.880
<v Speaker 1>This is a man defense. Beader run. The two guys across.

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:40.720
<v Speaker 1>The guy who has the running back man to man

0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:42.480
<v Speaker 1>is the linebacker in the middle of the screen, and

0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Martinez is not able to get through the traffic on

0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:49.200
<v Speaker 1>this play. Eric, thanks for the insights, great film study.

0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Can't wait to see it unfold against the Philadelphia Eagles

0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:56.400
<v Speaker 1>this Sunday in New Airfield. Game preview is presented by

0:09:56.520 --> 0:10:00.439
<v Speaker 1>Independent Health. From here every Day to You're Unexpected. That's

0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:06.280
<v Speaker 1>the Red Share treatment, Mattie glab here. This week's game preview,

0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:08.840
<v Speaker 1>the five and one Buffalo Bills are back at home

0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:12.240
<v Speaker 1>to face the three and four NFC East Philadelphia Eagles,

0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:14.760
<v Speaker 1>who are coming off back to back losses and the

0:10:14.800 --> 0:10:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Bills now five and one. Next week, the Bill's home

0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:20.120
<v Speaker 1>right here against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles are coming

0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:23.440
<v Speaker 1>into New Airfield one and three on the road this season.

0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:27.640
<v Speaker 1>Quarterback Carson Wentz has thrown for thirteen touchdowns, which is

0:10:27.679 --> 0:10:30.560
<v Speaker 1>tied for fifth most in the NFL. Someone who will

0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 1>be targeted a lot in this game tight end Zach Ertz.

0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:35.679
<v Speaker 1>He has the most targets for a tight end with

0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:39.679
<v Speaker 1>fifty nine, tied for eighth most overall. Fires it towards

0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:43.440
<v Speaker 1>the end zone, it is picked up, intercepted Tredavias White,

0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:46.000
<v Speaker 1>cuff top and then at the one yard line. The

0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:49.120
<v Speaker 1>Bills defense ranks third in the NFL, allowing an average

0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:51.960
<v Speaker 1>of two hundred and ninety two point seven yards per game.

0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:54.880
<v Speaker 1>They are also third and least points allowed per game

0:10:54.920 --> 0:10:58.480
<v Speaker 1>with fifteen point two. Corner Tredavious White has had a

0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:02.160
<v Speaker 1>very successful season so far, with the best defender passer

0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:05.880
<v Speaker 1>rating in the NFL at twenty six point six. Wide

0:11:05.920 --> 0:11:08.640
<v Speaker 1>receiver John Brown has been one of Josh Allen's favorite

0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:11.679
<v Speaker 1>targets so far. Brown is one of two receivers to

0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:14.600
<v Speaker 1>have at least fifty receiving yards in all of their

0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:17.840
<v Speaker 1>games this season. Josh Allen has the best fourth quarter

0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:20.839
<v Speaker 1>passer rating in the NFL right now, with one thirty

0:11:20.920 --> 0:11:24.040
<v Speaker 1>six point nine. The last time the Eagles played the

0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:26.840
<v Speaker 1>Bills on the road was in twenty eleven and Buffalo

0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:30.160
<v Speaker 1>won that game thirty one to twenty four. Steve back

0:11:30.240 --> 0:11:33.960
<v Speaker 1>to you. Thanks Matty. Now we're here back with Sean

0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:36.280
<v Speaker 1>McDermot to get some final thoughts on this game. You've

0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:39.079
<v Speaker 1>got some experience with Doug Peterson, the head coach of

0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:42.079
<v Speaker 1>the Philadelphia Eagles. You're gonna face him from across the sidelines.

0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:44.920
<v Speaker 1>What can we expect from one of Doug Peterson's Philadelphia

0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Eagle teams? Oh, they'll be well prepared, aggressive, well prepared.

0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:51.800
<v Speaker 1>This is a very good football team, just a year

0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:55.160
<v Speaker 1>and so off off of a Super Bowl championship and

0:11:56.200 --> 0:11:59.360
<v Speaker 1>a great organization. They played in a lot of big

0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:01.480
<v Speaker 1>games with the course of the last several years, and

0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:04.040
<v Speaker 1>so they've got a veteran team and I'm sure that

0:12:04.120 --> 0:12:06.079
<v Speaker 1>they'll be on their a game. They've coming off a

0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:08.400
<v Speaker 1>game against the Dallas Cowboys where that's one of their

0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:11.199
<v Speaker 1>rivals and being there in the division, and sure that

0:12:11.280 --> 0:12:12.840
<v Speaker 1>they like to have that game back. So we've got

0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:14.120
<v Speaker 1>to be on our a game this week. You know,

0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:17.280
<v Speaker 1>we've noticed that the Bills have struggled earlier, slow started

0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:19.319
<v Speaker 1>at least offensively in games and then coming back in

0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:21.640
<v Speaker 1>the end and win most of them. The Philadelphia Eagles

0:12:21.679 --> 0:12:23.720
<v Speaker 1>have done that as well. In games they've won this year,

0:12:23.760 --> 0:12:26.319
<v Speaker 1>they've overcome double digit deficits. You're not going to be

0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:27.959
<v Speaker 1>able to let the foot off the gas in this game,

0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:29.720
<v Speaker 1>even if you are up big. Yeah. And that comes

0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:33.199
<v Speaker 1>from really knowing and understanding and respect in the league.

0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:36.679
<v Speaker 1>You respect every opponent, respect every team. And then it

0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:39.959
<v Speaker 1>comes from knowing that we have to continue to grow

0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:43.160
<v Speaker 1>as a football team and games are one or lost

0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:45.800
<v Speaker 1>by you know, a little bit more than a touchdown

0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:47.840
<v Speaker 1>at times in this league. And so that's the challenge

0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:50.640
<v Speaker 1>every week is to continue to grow, continue to evolve,

0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:53.480
<v Speaker 1>and try and put your best food forward. Thanks Sean,

0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:55.120
<v Speaker 1>and thanks to you at home for watching. We're going

0:12:55.200 --> 0:12:57.520
<v Speaker 1>to come back next week and recap the Philadelphia Eagles

0:12:57.600 --> 0:13:00.600
<v Speaker 1>game and look ahead to the Washington Redskins. Thanks for watching, everybody,

0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:04.160
<v Speaker 1>and have a great weekend. The Sean McDermott Show is
