1
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 1: This is One Bills Live presented by Calight to Health.

2
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: All right, let's go. It's Wednesday, game install day at

3
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: practice as the Bills get ready for the Baltimore Ravens

4
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: and what could be a veritable monsoon on Sunday at

5
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 1: M ANDT Bank Stadium in Baltimore. Glad you could join us,

6
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,959
Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker here with you. One Bills Live

7
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 1: is the show, and we want to remind you that

8
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: this week's game sponsor is on location, on location unparalleled

9
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 1: access to exclusive Bills fan experiences. We got the injury

10
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: report from coach for practice today, Steve not practicing today.

11
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:25,839
Speaker 1: Jordan Phillips, who coach labeled week to week, so don't

12
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: know that he's not going to make it to the

13
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: game this week, so he's pretty much out. They're hopeful

14
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 1: for next week, but even that is not a lock

15
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: as Jordan Phillips dealing with that hamstring injury, so he

16
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: will miss a second straight game. Ryan Bates not practicing,

17
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: he is in the concussion protocol. Jay Kumerou not practicing

18
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: he has the high ankle sprain from last week's game.

19
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: And Dion Dawkins is not practicing because of a non

20
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: COVID illness. So hopefully he's much better for tomorrow and

21
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: the day after that and can get on the practice field.

22
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: Von Miller and Roger Staffold were to get rest days today,

23
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: but we were out of practice. I saw von Miller

24
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: had a helmet, he was ready to go for practice,

25
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 1: so maybe he said, yeah, I'm good, I'm practicing. I

26
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: don't know. And then and then limited today. Dane Jackson,

27
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer, ed Oliver Mitch Morrise, new offensive lineman Jonathan Murray,

28
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: and Dawson Knox. Those were all players who either missed

29
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:29,119
Speaker 1: last week's game or had to come out of Sunday's game.

30
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: That being Dawson knocked, Dane Jackson, Jordan poy At, Oliver

31
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: Mitch Moore's miss last week's game. So the team is

32
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: on the end, they're in a little bit better shape

33
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: and the practice update is presented by Lee Coom Lake

34
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. Getting healthier, but still a

35
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 1: long way to go. Yeah, and still I still think

36
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: some of those guys are they're still achy from Sunday's game.

37
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: Saffield played ninety plays, right, those guys need to break

38
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 1: and they'll get it. I mean, they'll be they'll start

39
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 1: to peak. They'll they'll get them completely healthy and get

40
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: them all hydrate and get them back to normal and

41
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: then start to ramp them up for the game on Sunday.

42
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: The thing that bothers me is, you know it's not

43
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: gonna be you know, they're not gonna play the Miami

44
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: Dolphins where they're playing the Ravens. The Ravens are They're

45
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,839
Speaker 1: a handful. They're a handful. They are a really good

46
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: football team. And despite the fact that the Miami Dolphins

47
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: have beaten both these teams, and as kudos are the Dolphins,

48
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: they got you know, they found their quarterback for the

49
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 1: next ten to twelve years. Good for them. I'm glad

50
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: two is gonna be the Dolphins. Don't have to worry

51
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: about it. That's fine, they're winners. Good for them. Uh,

52
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: let me just say this, good for him, man, They awesome.

53
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: The Dolphins are set at QB for that's fine. Um,

54
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: this this game is between two teams that I think

55
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: are going to be standing at the end of it all.

56
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: Baltimore is a really good football team and and as

57
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: long if Lamar stays healthy. Obviously, just the same thing

58
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: with the Bills. If if Josh stays healthy, if those

59
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: two guys stay healthy, these teams are going to be

60
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: in the playoffs deep. And that's why this is a

61
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: tough game going into Baltimore in a monsoon, which is

62
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,919
Speaker 1: which is you know, kryptonite for a team like the

63
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: Bills who throws it all over the yard. So this

64
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: game scares me, it really does. It's a tough matchup

65
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 1: against a really good team who's really good in their

66
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: own building. And they're yes, they're good in their own building.

67
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: And the Bills once again are going to get caught

68
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: by conditions that are out of their control. So it's

69
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: this is rough two weeks in a row. The Bills

70
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: might be impacted by weather more than the opponent. Well not,

71
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: I don't know about the opponent in this case. This

72
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: team's better than Miami. Well yeah, but that's whether it

73
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: will be. The margins are so close in the NFL.

74
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: I mean, you think about Baltimore. They're beating Miami by

75
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,799
Speaker 1: twenty one points in the fourth quarter, two plays busted

76
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: coverages and they lose. It's that. That's how it is

77
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,160
Speaker 1: the way it is. We should mention Dane Jackson out

78
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: there practicing on a limited basis today and was wearing

79
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 1: red non contact jersey, so certainly a good sign, an

80
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: encouraging sign going forward. What his status will be for Sunday,

81
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: we probably won't know until we get to Friday's practice,

82
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 1: and an insurance measure in that regard was made today

83
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: as well as Xavier Rhodes was signed to the team's

84
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 1: practice squad. Buffalo had two open spots on the practice squad.

85
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: They signed Xavier Rhodes, the veteran cornerback, and they signed

86
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: Prince Emilie, who got called up from the practice squad

87
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: and elevated to the active roster last week and then

88
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 1: was released after the game and has since reverted back

89
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: to the practice squad. They resigned him to the practice

90
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 1: squad today along with Rhads, so there is some insurance there.

91
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 1: In the event that Dane Jackson doesn't make it all

92
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: the way back to play this week, Rhodes would in

93
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 1: Rhodes might be up either way. When you think about it, yeah,

94
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: it could be. I mean, because really, your only corners

95
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: on the roster right now that are healthy tarn Johnson,

96
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: Kayer Elam and then Cam Lewis and Saran Neil JaMarcus

97
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 1: Ingram is still on the practice there. But but I think,

98
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: you know, if Rhodes kind of acclimates himself well to

99
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: the scheme and they feel good about calling him up,

100
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: they will do. They have Kyler McMichael listed on the

101
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: he's a dB and he's a he's a six foot

102
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: two h two guy, rookie out of North Carolina. He's,

103
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: you know, rookie, undrafted free agent. But so they got

104
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: bodies of guys who are acclimated. But certainly um Rhodes

105
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 1: is brought in for a reason. And Sean when asking

106
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 1: you know, what does what does Rhodes bring to the equation,

107
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: he started talking about, you know, learning about how you

108
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,479
Speaker 1: get him. He used the word experience about five times.

109
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: The guy's been around the block and nothing's going to

110
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: be too big for him. He's not going to get

111
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: caught not aware. And that's that's why you sign the guy.

112
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: You need a guy that's can think about football rather

113
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: than where he's at when he gets on the field.

114
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: The other update to pass along, Christian Benford had surgery

115
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: on his broken hand from the game on Sunday, and

116
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: coach McDermott said it was a successful procedure. He said

117
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: he's going to miss at least a couple of games,

118
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: so this week, next week, where it goes from there,

119
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: we'll probably know in a couple of weeks time as

120
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: far as the healing process is concerned. So that's the

121
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: situation there with the Bill's injury report and who's healthy

122
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: and who's not. Speaking of health, a position that is

123
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: not healthy for the Baltimore Ravens is defensive tackle, where

124
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: Michael Pierce, it has been reported by a couple of

125
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: the national reporters, suffered a torn by SIPs tendon in

126
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: last week's game against New England. So his status is

127
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: not out there yet, but I would venture to guess

128
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: it's very much in doubt for Sunday's game. He's a

129
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: big run stuffer for them in the middle. Yeah, both

130
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: these clubs are starting to feel the weight of the

131
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: reps that they've played here in the first month of

132
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: the season, and we kind of got immune to it

133
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: here in Buffalo for the last couple of years. But

134
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: this is kind of normal procedure and now certainly Buffalo

135
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 1: was a little bit went deeper into the roster than

136
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: most teams had to do this early, but at some

137
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: point of the year, you figured this is all would

138
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: all happen. You'd like to see it spread out over

139
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 1: about three months. But injuries are commonplace, and that's why

140
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 1: the depth of your roster is so huge. The Bills haven't.

141
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: We haven't been down this road for a couple of years.

142
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 1: That's right. One of the healthiest teams in the league

143
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty and twenty twenty one. But yeah, the

144
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: law of averages seems to have caught up with the

145
00:08:55,400 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: Bills to some degree. Quick look around the NFL presented

146
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: by Kalida Health, the official healthcare system of the Bills.

147
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: The Jets might be onto their fifth offensive tackle. They

148
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 1: had to put left tackle George Phanton ir with a

149
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: knee injury. He's the third offensive lineman placed on ir

150
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 1: by the Jets this season, following McKay, Beckton and somebody

151
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 1: else whose names escaping me. Meanwhile, just in time for

152
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 1: Jets quarterback Zach Wilson, who was medically cleared to return

153
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: to full practice and game playing, he will start Sunday,

154
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 1: or at least the anticipation as he'll start Sunday against

155
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 1: the Steelers, who do not have t J. Watt. So

156
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson is probably very happy about that, knowing he's

157
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: gonna have another backup line up at left tackle for

158
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: him on his blind side. Brown's defensive end Miles Garrett

159
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 1: has an injured injured shoulder and biceps muscle as a

160
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: result of his one car crash. Did you see footage

161
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 1: of his carly Cow, It looked like it looked like

162
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: DiCaprio's car in The Wolf of Wall Street. Remember when

163
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 1: he thought, it's a amazing I got home completely high

164
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: on drugs, and he thought he was like the cat's

165
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: me al getting home without incident. He gets up the

166
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: next morning and he looks at his car and it's

167
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: completely it's ravaged. That's what Garrett's car looked like. I

168
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: don't know how he got out of there and walked

169
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: away from the accident. It was bad, Like it looked

170
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: like somebody stepped on a soda can. Like. That's how

171
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: bad his car looked. Very very very fortunate that he

172
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: escaped relatively unscathed. What his status is for Sunday's game

173
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: for the Browns, we don't know yet. AFC Offensive Player

174
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: of the Week Steve Trevor Lawrence good for him thirty

175
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,079
Speaker 1: eight to ten victory last week over the Chargers, and

176
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 1: that offense is on its way, big play capabilities, and

177
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: it's amazing what a young quarterback can do when he's

178
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: got the right coach coaching. Well, we found that out

179
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 1: here in Buffalo. Trevor Lawrence was way more highly touted

180
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: than Josh Allen coming out, and he struggled, I would

181
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: say as much or more of than Josh Allen did

182
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: his first year. And Josh was a struggle. You saw

183
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: flashes of it at times, but I think you saw

184
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: flashes of it with Josh's rookie here more than he

185
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,439
Speaker 1: did with Trevor Lawrence last year under Urban Meyer. Now,

186
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: when you get Doug Peterson, and I was a and

187
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: I just say this, Jaguars haven't gotten much right over

188
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,319
Speaker 1: the last four or five years. They got this right.

189
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson can coach quarterbacks. Yeah, and Trevor Lawrence is

190
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 1: finding out and you're seeing the results of it. That

191
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 1: they strummed a team that some people thought had a

192
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: chance to get to the super Bowl and certainly a

193
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: playoff team in the Chargers. This last week, they strummed him. Yeah.

194
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: And it wasn't even a game. It was twenty four

195
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: nothing or twenty four seven a half. Jacksonville had the

196
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: first pick of the NFL Draft this last April. They

197
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 1: were the worst team in football last year by a

198
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: long stretch, and they thumped one of the one of

199
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,559
Speaker 1: the most envied rosters in the NFL this last Sunday

200
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: and did it in resounding fashion. So Trey Von Walker

201
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 1: and Josh Allen off the edges. They're I think DeMarcus

202
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 1: Lawrence and Micah Parsons might be the only tandem that

203
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: I would take over those two. Yeah, they're really good.

204
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: They are really good, and they're a handful TUA for

205
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: those that care. Limited in practice on Tuesday. Dolphins are

206
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: playing on Thursday on a short week against the Bengals

207
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. And the Dolphins actually left Miami today to

208
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: get out in time before the Hurricane hid An impacted

209
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: air travel. So think about this, Steve. They do film

210
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: correction and review on Monday after Sunday's game against the Bills.

211
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: They practice to yesterday and then fly out today to

212
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: get out. Yeah, they probably had a little bit of

213
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: a walk through or kind of a thing today at

214
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: the at the facility and they'll fly out this afternoon.

215
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: Probably they may not even be in the air yet.

216
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: They'll flat later, but you know, they got to get

217
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 1: work done. But by the same token, you're trying to

218
00:12:54,960 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: juggle hydration and travel and logistics and meetings and film

219
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: study and working out and treatment, all of that stuff

220
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: in a condensed we we've all been there, we've all

221
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: seen it, you know, in this thing. But I'm telling

222
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 1: you what that as rough as it was giving rights,

223
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: as rough as it was that that Sunday game for

224
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: the Bills, they heat now it was wasn't as bad

225
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,200
Speaker 1: because of the shade they were in. But they had

226
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: to play in that too. The Dolphins did, and it

227
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: was a rough and tumble game. So they're up against

228
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: it as well. I'm telling you that. I if the

229
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 1: Dolphins beat the Cincinnati Bengals on the road this week,

230
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: after what they went through this last Sunday with the

231
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: Bills and all of that's what's going forward, that would

232
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 1: raise their level of respect in my mind, more the

233
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 1: sou than beating the team the way the game happened

234
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 1: on Sunday. If they beat the Bengals this week, that's impressive.

235
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:54,320
Speaker 1: That's really impressive to me. We'll see, but because that

236
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 1: that to me is a tough week, a tough week,

237
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: a week nobody's got any love lost for the Dolphins

238
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: here in Buffalo. But I'm telling you what you think

239
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 1: about it, that's a tough ask for the NFL to

240
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:05,679
Speaker 1: make them do it, particularly given the game they were

241
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: in against Buffalo. I think that's the thing. So while

242
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: Miami leaves their facility early, it opens up the opportunity

243
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: for the Tampa Bay Bucks to fly south to Miami

244
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,200
Speaker 1: to get out of the way of the hurricane, which

245
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: is making landfall as we speak. They relocated to South Florida.

246
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: They're practicing in the Dolphins facility this week to get

247
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: ready for their game against the Chiefs, which is a

248
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: game that is likely to be moved to Minneapolis due

249
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: to Hurricane Ian. That will be the location if and

250
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: when the league makes the call to officially move the

251
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: game to a neutral site. With Tampa clearly in the

252
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 1: path of Hurricane Ian, which is strengthening and maybe a

253
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: Cat five by now, which is the highest and most

254
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: and strongest to hurricane can be, they're evacuate. They're evacuating.

255
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 1: It looks like they're evacuating the entire state of Florida.

256
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: They're telling people to get out, and they have deadlines

257
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 1: that one day. It's like eight pm on Tuesday, APM

258
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: on Wednesday today, eight pm tomorrow and eight pm the

259
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: next day, goes all the way up through the state.

260
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 1: People got to get out of there. And I it's

261
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 1: bad because people are gonna die in this hurricane. People

262
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: that don't evacuate, people are gonna get hurt. And I

263
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: know it's your home. I know it's your property, and

264
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 1: people are gonna die over there. It's bad. It's bad.

265
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: You got and you know, you hope people look out

266
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: for each other down there, because man o, man, it's

267
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: coming and then it ain't no stopping it. You can't

268
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: shovel it, and then you can't snowstorms right, And it's likely,

269
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: at least at this point in time, based on some

270
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: of the spaghetti models you know where they have the

271
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: multiple tracks, that it will bring rain and pretty significant

272
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: wins to Sunday's game between the Bills and Ravens in Baltimore.

273
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: There is currently a seventy percent chance of rain for

274
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: the game wins of twenty five to thirty miles per hour,

275
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 1: so for the second straight week, weather it could play

276
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: a major factor in how the game is played much

277
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 1: like it was last week in Miami due to the

278
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: oppressive heat, so be very interesting to see the weather.

279
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: We in fact get in Baltimore on Sunday because it's

280
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: not looking good right now. Let's go to the phones though.

281
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: At eighth three fifty eight fifty two, five fifty we

282
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: lead off with Tom on a sell what you got

283
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: for a tammy? Are on one Bills Live? Hey, how

284
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: are you guys doing today? Doing good? I've been wanting

285
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: to say this for a long time, and I'm not

286
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 1: being contentious. I have thought this out, and I'm like,

287
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: I watched the Bills in every offseason. Do we agree

288
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: this management is really trying to win the Super Bowl?

289
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: They are doing all the right things to try to win,

290
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: not just to be competitive or to put rear ends

291
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 1: in the seats. They're trying to win, which makes me

292
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 1: sit there and wonder what their aversion is to having

293
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: a running back who commands a little bit more respect

294
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: than the ones we've had. Why do they seem to

295
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: not Every offseason comes and goes and I'm like, man,

296
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: why do they go get smurfs who supposedly are the

297
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,199
Speaker 1: best pass catchers ever? Why can we not have a

298
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 1: running back. We do not like to be a running team.

299
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 1: They just command more respect, you know, keep defenses a

300
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 1: little bit more honest. Why will they not do that? Well,

301
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 1: I get it, Tom, you answered your own question. Why

302
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 1: would they want to spend like a number one pick

303
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 1: on a running back in a league that's not a

304
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 1: running league. I mean, I can get what you're saying.

305
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 1: One say that Brady has no other passing quarterbacks have,

306
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: say you don't, we don't need to spend a number

307
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: one pick. Just don't get somebody a little bit heavier

308
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 1: than two hundred towns they command. It's just a little

309
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,919
Speaker 1: bit more respect at the line. And nobody's afraid of

310
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,199
Speaker 1: us running nobody. No, they're not, Tom, You're right, they're not.

311
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 1: But I'll say this, they're afraid of this offense, yeah,

312
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: whether they run it or not. And I get it.

313
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I get it would be great. But you're

314
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: right now, you're you're worried about Um. I don't know.

315
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of an analogy. Um, you wish

316
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: the freight train that was rolling people over was a

317
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,880
Speaker 1: different color. I don't know. I mean, this is this

318
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 1: team is really good. Their offense is not a problem.

319
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 1: And to be very honest with you, the first two

320
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: and let's just let me go back and remind you

321
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 1: of the uh the schedule for the Bills. They they

322
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 1: went to the defending World Championship, hung forty thirty one

323
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: points on them. They went to the number one seed

324
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: in the in the AFC, they played them at home,

325
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: and they hung forty one on them. I'm not doing

326
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: anything different. I don't care if you've got Derek Henry

327
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 1: in your backfield. I'm not handed it to him anymore

328
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 1: than I did when I scored thirty one and forty

329
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: one points in respective years. Now they go into Miami,

330
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 1: and I'll say this. You can say what you want

331
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 1: about the running backs they have. It ain't about them

332
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 1: last week. It's a about offensive lineman six seven and

333
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,880
Speaker 1: eight that we're starting in that game, plus the seventh

334
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: one had an ACL tear and and the sixth one,

335
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: the fifth one, the starting center was the sixth one

336
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: the week before. He wasn't even on the field before.

337
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: So you've got six, seven, eight and nine offensive lineman

338
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: playing in Miami. So I mean, I don't know, there's

339
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: nothing to complain about with his offense. Injuries okay, whether

340
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 1: okay that that's fine. There's nothing in this offense that

341
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 1: says they need to change anything. If Walter Payton was

342
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: in their backfield, he ain't handed at him any more

343
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,199
Speaker 1: than you're doing tonet. Now. He may run better when

344
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: he does, but you're throwing it. If you have Jim

345
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: Brown in your backfield, you're not gonna change your game plan.

346
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: You're not gonna run a little bit more with Jim Brown,

347
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 1: maybe because he may get more than two yards, maybe

348
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: because he's big. I guess there's what his point is. Listen,

349
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: you're not You're hanging thirty one points on one team

350
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: forty one the next week, and then with offensive lineman seven,

351
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,439
Speaker 1: eight and nine on the field, one of them with

352
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: an ACL tear. You're gonna complain about your running game.

353
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: Come on, come on, I get it. You wish you

354
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,439
Speaker 1: could run. Everybody wishes they could run the ball because

355
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: it makes us feel good, because it takes the stress

356
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 1: out of us. We never we never face a third

357
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: and nine on with a with a big time running back.

358
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: I get that analogy, But let me just tell you something.

359
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 1: They were nine of ten on third down in week one,

360
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 1: nine of ten. They were eleven and eighteen. I don't

361
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 1: care if they ever handed off. They're they're as good

362
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 1: at offense as there is in the NFL. Maybe, and

363
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:45,479
Speaker 1: they're they're in the conversation for the best one. So

364
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 1: and jump up and down about the how the offseason went.

365
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 1: Come on, come on, I will this team is the

366
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: preseason favorite to go to the super Bowl and due

367
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,959
Speaker 1: to a confluence of adverse condition this last week, not

368
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 1: most notably, Yeah, good Dolphins defense. Also, that's fine. I'm

369
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: not even gonna start into a troll conversation with Miami fans.

370
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: They've got one loss by two points in a game

371
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 1: where they can look at themselves and say, hey, we're

372
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: the ones that man, don't don't mess with this roster

373
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: when it's fully healthy. I'm not changing anything. I'm not

374
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 1: trading any of these guys, not the running backs, not

375
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 1: the tight ends, not the offensive line, and nobody. So

376
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: I get it. There's always one thing, you know, there's

377
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 1: always one thing that we don't have or that they

378
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: do that we wish we had, or do we wish

379
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: we did better. Come on, we're we're a freight train.

380
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: We're a freight train. Don't worry about what we don't

381
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 1: got and I will say that, you know they invested

382
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 1: a second round pick in James Cook, who I think

383
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: flashed last week in the passing game. I realize he's

384
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: probably not the between the tackles runner that our caller wanted.

385
00:21:57,920 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: But give it a little bit of time and I

386
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 1: think you'll see that James Cook, James James Cook can

387
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 1: be an added weapon in this offense. Maybe not in

388
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: the fashion that you think, but I think he will

389
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: be a weapon that fits this offense perfectly for what

390
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 1: they want to do with the running back position. I

391
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 1: just think some things have to unfold. And I'll say

392
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 1: this because we talked about this yesterday. Aaron Cromer was

393
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:28,679
Speaker 1: brought in to change the rushing attack formula, and I

394
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 1: think it's going to take some time, just like anything

395
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 1: else that's new. And you know, you want to have

396
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:38,159
Speaker 1: your criticisms, now, that's fine. Let's see where it is

397
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 1: in week six, seven and eight. Week seven to buy.

398
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: But by the time we get to mid season, let's

399
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 1: see what this run game looks like. I'm not what

400
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 1: are you talking about? It? Re scored thirty one on

401
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 1: the World Champions forty one on the one seed came

402
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,199
Speaker 1: in and you got no offensive line. Nineteen guys are

403
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: on the injured list, and you're worried about running the

404
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,400
Speaker 1: foot you're saying we should have run the Come on,

405
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: it's a So you want to take the ball out

406
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 1: of Josh Allen's hands. That makes a lot of sense.

407
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if it does. I don't know if

408
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: he's saying that. I think the only thing and this

409
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,360
Speaker 1: is what he's saying, anytime you get the football off

410
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: to another guy, it's out of Josh's hands. Yes, And

411
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: if you want to get a NT guy who you

412
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: want to give it to more, that's exactly what you're saying. No,

413
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 1: what he was saying was he doesn't feel like any

414
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: running back on our roster intimidates any team in the

415
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: league because there's no fear that they're going to gain

416
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: any appreciable yardage of any kind. And he believes if

417
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,919
Speaker 1: you have a big back, you at least offer the

418
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: threat of that, and it has to be respected. He

419
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 1: doesn't think that our running backs are respected by any

420
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: opposing defense. He's worried about respect. Well, they respect you

421
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,719
Speaker 1: when they hang forty one points on you. Well, I

422
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: know how much they think they respect you when you're

423
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 1: hanging forty one points and you got a four to

424
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 1: one touchdown ratio. How much respect do you think they're getting.

425
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: You don't think they're Yeah, okay, I think we've covered that.

426
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: Spare me that. Let's move along to Keith in Holland next.

427
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: What do you have for his Keith? Oh? Yeah, Brownie.

428
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 1: First of all, just like to say the squirrel problem.

429
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 1: Dog did his job. Maybe maybe Steve knows from uh,

430
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: from hunting essence or something. The dog finds the animal

431
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 1: and then you're supposed to finish the job. I just

432
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 1: about all right. Well, okay, you took a picture with

433
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: my uh grandson over in East store or this weekend,

434
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: and I want to thank you. It's a big deal

435
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: for him. Who me, Well, no, for my grandson, it's

436
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: for me. I know you're talking about. Steve took the picture.

437
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: Steve took a picture the past weekend. All right, Keith,

438
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 1: what's up that? For a lot of people? No worries?

439
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,640
Speaker 1: What's on your mind? Keith? What else he was worried about?

440
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: The squirrel? The squirrel just Brownie was supposed to take

441
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 1: care of the squirrel. Well I did eventually with you know,

442
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,239
Speaker 1: with a roof rake in one hand and my my

443
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,159
Speaker 1: spike ball net and the other. I mean I was

444
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,640
Speaker 1: no gladiator, but for me, I got a much grandkids.

445
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 1: I had got one of their swords and shields, and

446
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 1: I could have done the whole thing. Yeah, in costume,

447
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: what are we gonna say, Keith? No, I just gotta see.

448
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: Normally the dog makes see im will come around by

449
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: you so you can finish the job. So I think

450
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,120
Speaker 1: you were a little critical as a dog. I think

451
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: you did what you're supposed to do, all right. Do

452
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 1: you want to give full marks to my dog? That's fine, Keith,

453
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: I have no problem with that. I'll try to be

454
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 1: better prepared. But my older dog, she used to just

455
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,199
Speaker 1: chase him clean out of the yard and I have

456
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: to lift a finger. My younger dog, she's I guess

457
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 1: she's learning you. She got totally faked out of her

458
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 1: socks though, because the squirrel doubled back on her and

459
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 1: ran in my garage yesterday. It was nuts. I don't

460
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 1: know how it happened, did you. What's the biggest critter

461
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: you ever had to deal with? Skunk? Oh, that's not fun.

462
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: My older dog got sprayed by a skunk. She ran

463
00:25:58,560 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: right up to the thing, and the thing just turned

464
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: tail and said, I don't care. Yeah, what do you

465
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 1: have to do with that? How do you get rid

466
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 1: of one of those? If they're oh you just okay? Yeah?

467
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 1: What was it in your garage or your shit or something?

468
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 1: Those they were they were most night after night. They

469
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: were right out in my backyard and and I you know,

470
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,719
Speaker 1: you can't let anything outside, you know, I just yeah,

471
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: I just dispatched him. Okay, they're going And that the

472
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 1: problem is, you know what happens when you Yeah, you

473
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:37,400
Speaker 1: got to bury him quick. How deep the fastest hole

474
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: you can dig? You dig it? And you think, you

475
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 1: know what my dad has to deal. He lives in

476
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: South Carolina. You know what they're you doing with them

477
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: down there? Armadillos. Oh yeah, they have completely migrated across

478
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 1: the Sun Belt from Texas and now ups in South Carolina.

479
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 1: They're not good for anything either. They'll cut your power

480
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 1: lines to your house if they're underground. Yeah, they just

481
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 1: dig dig dig dig dig. He can't stand arm dellows.

482
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 1: They're like public Enemy number one for him. They don't

483
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,439
Speaker 1: move too fast, though, and you can trap him. So

484
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 1: all right, this critter talk brought to you by Steve

500
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,840

505
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:37,919
Speaker 1: your questions. Correct, you have to go outside? Did give

00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: us I'll date that Rhoads and you know what, Yeah,

507
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: a lot of experience overall there and and um, you

508
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: know on our practice squad, the saying that's kind of

509
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: the new look practice squads these days of compared to

510
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 1: what they used to be, right, Um, so experienced players

511
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:59,719
Speaker 1: play a lot of football ball production. Um, you know,

512
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,719
Speaker 1: smart veteran player. Um, you know, came in the other

513
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: day to do a good job. And and we're looking

514
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 1: forward to seeing him on the field today. Yeah, he'll

515
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 1: do He'll be limited today, I'll do some individual and

516
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 1: we'll see. We'll see what he can do from there.

517
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 1: Than you'll get into the game, Serge Marcus, I can play.

518
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: But we've seen Surran kind of elevated preseason. Why why

519
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 1: didn't he see time on the outside. Yeah, just you know,

520
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 1: again the heat just with what was going on and

521
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: trying to keep you know, you got a very good

522
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: special teams player that was playing for us. And if

523
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 1: he's got a double dip then and what takes away

524
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 1: from special teams. So that's that's where we were, and

525
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 1: we have a lot of confidence in Suran, but just

526
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 1: wanted to be mindful of that. Do you expect there's

527
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 1: going to be criticism, because yeah, I think we've shown that, right.

528
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 1: I mean you look back, as I said, a few

529
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:01,840
Speaker 1: was it a a few weeks ago when I was asked

530
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: this question about close games two and twenty, I think

531
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 1: it was we were maybe five and one. So we've

532
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: shown that over the years. I think twenty seventeen we

533
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: were either break even are pretty good there too. So

534
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 1: I mean the NFL is a game of close games, right,

535
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 1: It's a legal close games. So I think we have

536
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 1: to continue to work on executing down the stretch and

537
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 1: in order to win those games. Said don't know in

538
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: the last year to talk about the way that you

539
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 1: handle those late game situations. Fine, ways to get better. Yeah, absolutely, Jerry, absolutely,

540
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's it's an ongoing conversation. You know,

541
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 1: we spent a lot of time in those last two

542
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: to three plays of the game situations on all sides

543
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 1: of the ball, and then you you're out of practice,

544
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 1: I believe, and you see us working on two minute

545
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: out there quite a bit as as much as I've

546
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 1: ever been around, to be honest with you. So M

547
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: so we're we're I think our process is right and

548
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: then we've got to continue to execute and in the

549
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: final moments of the game. So the challenges adding a

550
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: veteran once the season starts, well, I mean there's I

551
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 1: think adding a veteran is maybe a little bit different

552
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: than adding an inexperienced player, especially this time of year. Um,

553
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: you know, they bring the experience, but but it's also

554
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: sometimes we have to strip away some of the other

555
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 1: things that they've learned at other places, be it terminology

556
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 1: or just ways of doing things. So, um, it does

557
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 1: add value. There's value there, but then there's some some

558
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: challenges that you do have to get over too, compared

559
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 1: to a maybe an inexperienced player as a rookie or

560
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: first year player. Guys, the last two times your defense,

561
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: he's done an amiable job against Lamar. I mean, this

562
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 1: guy's killed other teams. He hasn't really killed you a team.

563
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 1: What do you attribute Jack, But how have you been

564
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: able to limit the damage that he's been able to do?

565
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: Lamar is a tremendous player. He's an elite player. UM,

566
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: one of the faces of the of the NFL. UM.

567
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: And you know, I just think it's uh, it's a

568
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: um just you gotta you gotta have a total team effort,

569
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 1: right and that's just not defense but offensively special teams

570
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: to do their part. And we've been we've been able

571
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: to do that. UM. You know, I think the defense

572
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 1: has played good team defense and discipline defense. UM. He's

573
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: just so good in so many different areas that that uh,

574
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 1: as you've seen this year. He can he can, uh

575
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: you know, they can as an offense, UM put up

576
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 1: points in a her. I think they'll lead the league

577
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 1: and points scored. So um, you know, he's got weapons

578
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 1: on the outside. He's he's uh with the new with

579
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: DuVernay and and uh Bateman there, and they can take

580
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 1: a short pass and turn into a big gain and

581
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: so they're very explosive with Lamar and and then he's

582
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: got you know Andrews and what he does and he's

583
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 1: so savvy and strong and good after the catch there.

584
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: So UM, you know, they're they're a tough offense on

585
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 1: the first few years for sure, maybe a limited pass,

586
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: good pass for a limited guy, does the does the

587
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: defense have to change a bit because he clearly isn't

588
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 1: unlimited pass or anymore. And this is a guy who

589
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 1: now is probably a pretty pretty good pension. So he

590
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 1: is and the stats reflect that. Um, so that's why

591
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: that's why he's as good as he is. I mean,

592
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,479
Speaker 1: he's he's a two dimensional player. And um, you know,

593
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 1: one of the best quarterbacks in the league against a

594
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 1: little more on board? Is that that force of the defender,

595
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 1: that edge guy in terms of obviously having to deal

596
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: with all the readoption stuff. And I know it's one

597
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 1: part of a whole team effort, but you know that

598
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: guy in the edge seems like an important cod who

599
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 1: comes to being able to contain the model. Yeah, the

600
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 1: perimeter of the defense is important to your point. Um, again,

601
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 1: you've got to be a Simon Sound whoever's whoever's job

602
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 1: that is on every play and that includes third down

603
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: as well. So um, you know, again it's going to

604
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: be a team effort. Uh, you've got to play great

605
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 1: team defense or Simon Sounds more this split position or

606
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, let to be able to keep up

607
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 1: with him more important well, both, Um, it's it's good

608
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,719
Speaker 1: to be in position. But but if you can't make

609
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 1: the play, that's a we've got to We've still have

610
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 1: a problem on our hands there. So, but we have

611
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: we have confidence in the guys on our team that

612
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 1: we've got you know, athletic players, uh in those positions

613
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 1: and and uh you know, but the discipline pieces is

614
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:23,799
Speaker 1: important secondary. How much you Karen Um to be that

615
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 1: leader among a group that's very young and as an experience,

616
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: and how much do you need him also to play

617
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:37,000
Speaker 1: He's want of letters well going, what's going on in

618
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 1: that in that secondary? Yeah, um, no, it's a valid question.

619
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,399
Speaker 1: I mean when you look at what Terren's being able

620
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 1: to do and who's around him at times or who's

621
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: been around him, you know, you want to a veteran

622
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 1: voice and a guy that's that's played in our system

623
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 1: for a few years and he's done that, and I

624
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: think Terren's playing really good football and you know, I

625
00:34:55,640 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 1: expect will continue to do that. Is John Muller the

626
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: challenge of the game. So many experienced players ready ready

627
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 1: to go. Yeah, John's great. Um, those guys, you know,

628
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 1: he just he just works. He doesn't say anything about it,

629
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 1: and he just he just goes to work and gets

630
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,880
Speaker 1: those guys ready, and it just seems like one after another,

631
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: year after year after year, he's been able to do

632
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 1: that at a high level. You're the biggest challenge when

633
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: you have so many experienced players, it's not just one

634
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:26,800
Speaker 1: or two, it's fun way the entire secondary would get parents.

635
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 1: So what is that biggest challenge in terms of getting

636
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 1: the set, the whole secondary ready. Well, you're talking about

637
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 1: players that haven't always been around each other and been

638
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 1: in a system for a number of years where they

639
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: where they have a report built up in the communication,

640
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 1: the necessary communication built up, so um, and that all

641
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 1: leads to execution at the end of the day. We

642
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: talk a lot about getting guys ready for a game

643
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,720
Speaker 1: like Lamy. What about recovering after a game like Miami?

644
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 1: What that looked like maybe over the last forty eight

645
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 1: hours for you guys, as you have to get those

646
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 1: fluids back in then get them ready for Sunday. Yeah. Um,

647
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: I think they've done a great job of that. We've

648
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 1: moved forward in this case and looking at the Ravens

649
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: this weekend and practice today obviously, and the guys seem

650
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 1: that they're in a good spot and focused on focused

651
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: on improving today and getting better. Yet well, I think

652
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 1: it goes back to again a little bit of Jerry's

653
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,799
Speaker 1: question earlier about you know the games come down. There's

654
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: it's in the margins most in most games, right in

655
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 1: terms of what leads to what separates winning from losing

656
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,400
Speaker 1: and whatnot. And I think you know it's a detail,

657
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 1: it's the execution and there's a lot that goes into that.

658
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 1: And then knowing how much does playing two dimensional football

659
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 1: impact your ability to finish drives and in finish games,

660
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 1: you haven't been able to get the running game going,

661
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 1: And kind of a multipoon question, is there any disappointment

662
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 1: in that you haven't been able to get the running

663
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 1: game going with the additions you made on the offensive line,

664
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: in the back fielding, but the offensive line coach Karen Homer,

665
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 1: we I'll start with with with just confidence in the

666
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 1: offensive line. I've got a lot of confidence in air

667
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 1: and our offensive lineman. Um, you know we didn't get

668
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 1: it going this past weekend. And um, I think as

669
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 1: the as a season, especially the beginning part of the

670
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 1: season unfolds, you're always collecting data, collecting information. Then where

671
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:17,839
Speaker 1: do you need to make adjustments? Where do you how

672
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: do you need to evolve as an offense in this case,

673
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,839
Speaker 1: you know, so that we can continue to improve and

674
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,759
Speaker 1: win games and and uh to be to kind of

675
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 1: just cover your ears or your eyes to that and

676
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 1: other things like that wouldn't be responsible. And we're all

677
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: about that. So that means um, taking the time to

678
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 1: research it, um, looking ourselves in the mirror, and then

679
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:40,760
Speaker 1: knowing what we got to work on improve as a team,

680
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 1: you can improve better on offense. Do you feel the

681
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 1: team is needing to come dramatically bold? Well, you look

682
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 1: at everything again, I'm starting personnel wise. I'm extremely comfortable

683
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: and confident the guys that we have as well as

684
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 1: coach cromer Um. So there's there's a lot of a

685
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 1: lot of things that go into that, not just you

686
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 1: know one thing. In this case, we've seen them art

687
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: as much as arctus. What do you see that straction?

688
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: What do you guys have to watch for ramping back? Doctor? Yeah?

689
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 1: I mean, um, that was a you know, significant situation there. Um.

690
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: So with all players, Catherine, we have a ramp up

691
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: type of plan. Nate does a great job along with

692
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 1: our sports science and strength coaches with that plan. And

693
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: what they can handle the first day back, like today

694
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: versus tomorrow, And usually what happens is you ramp them

695
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 1: up a little bit today, like we're gonna do with Dane,

696
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 1: and then see how he is when he comes back

697
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 1: in tomorrow, and then assess and and try and wrap him,

698
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: you know, even further in the next day. So that's

699
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:50,319
Speaker 1: usually the the progression, if you will, and hopefully that's

700
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: the case with Dane. He's watching d on Lamar and

701
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,880
Speaker 1: knowing that you have Josh bring back any memories of

702
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 1: the process you'll have to go to a twenty eight

703
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: team to find the right quarterback and knowing that you

704
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 1: you know, these two are stand ups of that class.

705
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,480
Speaker 1: I mean you just you look at what Josh has

706
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: been able to do and then you look at Lamar's

707
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,439
Speaker 1: game and they're they're a little bit different in terms

708
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: of you know, their strengths maybe and um, but just

709
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 1: it's good for the league. I mean, these are two

710
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 1: young quarterbacks that played at such a high level. Um

711
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 1: they give you headaches. They're they're hard to stop because

712
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 1: of their multidimensional and what they do and how they

713
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 1: can do it, um And so a lot of respect

714
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure around the league for Josh and of course

715
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: we love Josh and a lot of respect for Lamar

716
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 1: in this case too. Every season head of their adversity,

717
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 1: you can't how you handle it. What is your message

718
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: to the team amidst all these injuries, amidst you know,

719
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:47,839
Speaker 1: high going down? What is the message to the team.

720
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 1: I think our environment is the key piece of this,

721
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 1: right Like what's in the environment and uh and right

722
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 1: now we're focused on, you know, minimizing distractions and maximizing performance.

723
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 1: And I think that's the key is we have to

724
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 1: focus on proving our football team on a day to

725
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 1: day basis and doing everything possible to do our jobs

726
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,840
Speaker 1: at a higher level so we get the necessary execution.

727
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:09,359
Speaker 1: And in order to do that, you've got to make

728
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: sure that your mind is in the right spot and

729
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:15,799
Speaker 1: that you're minimizing those distractions. Like I said, sense of

730
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: Jordan Fellows timeline in a general sense, whether it's more

731
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 1: day to day week week, yeah, I don't. I don't really.

732
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to happen this week, Jay,

733
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:26,439
Speaker 1: And I'm feeling like it's a little bit more week

734
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,879
Speaker 1: to week. I'm hopeful for next week, but we'll see

735
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,400
Speaker 1: where it goes. Prefer to happen on the field, but

736
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,840
Speaker 1: it is my good just kind of become an additional

737
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 1: coach at this point. I mean we saw him on

738
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 1: the sideline against the Dolbens. Is that going to be

739
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 1: his role moving forward? But we'll see, you know, we're

740
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: going to take that one day at a time. Also, UM,

741
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:44,840
Speaker 1: I could tell you this, he would always be welcome

742
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 1: on the on the give him a whistle. Um. I've

743
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 1: joked with him about that a couple of days ago.

744
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 1: But he'd make a very good coach if if he'd

745
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 1: ever want to embrace that role. We'll see. Can you

746
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:01,959
Speaker 1: just talk about your disappointment for Christian Benford? He really

747
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 1: earthed on the scene, sees the opportunity. And on top

748
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,359
Speaker 1: of that, just how does a rookie rebound from an

749
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 1: injury like this, gaining such momentum and having to kind

750
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 1: of take a break and come back. Yeah, that's Um,

751
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: it's a shame that that it had happened, but that's

752
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 1: life in the NFL. And he was off to a

753
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 1: really good, good start and um, and so there'll be

754
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 1: a process, as I mentioned earlier, bringing him back. Um,

755
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:26,239
Speaker 1: you know, he had the surgery yesterday. I think it

756
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 1: was yesterday, right, losing track of days, but um, he

757
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:31,759
Speaker 1: had the surgery yesterday and it went well, and now

758
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,479
Speaker 1: it's about how do we get him back as quickly

759
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: as possible but also as safely, more importantly as possible.

760
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 1: So we have a plan in place for that, and again,

761
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 1: our medical staff, our training staff, our our supports science

762
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,359
Speaker 1: and strength and conditioning coaches do a great job with it.

763
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:50,800
Speaker 1: He handles it mentally though, Like mentally as a rookie,

764
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 1: you gain all that moment and then the disappointment and

765
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,799
Speaker 1: then just revamping that in your mind and moving out. Yeah,

766
00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:00,040
Speaker 1: that's uh. We we talked. We talk a lot about that,

767
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 1: and I'm kind of chuckling because that's a that's a

768
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 1: real thing, especially for a young player who has never

769
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 1: played in this league up until this season, and then

770
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 1: on top of that, hasn't been hurt in the in

771
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:12,640
Speaker 1: the league. Um, you know, some of these players may

772
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 1: have been hurt in college, but being hurt in the NFL,

773
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 1: going through that for your first time is there's a

774
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:21,280
Speaker 1: mental component to that. So again, confident in the people

775
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 1: that we have downstairs to help him through that the

776
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:31,480
Speaker 1: best that they can. And he cannot. I know you

777
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 1: guys pay attention to the forecasting. You dialed into that

778
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 1: something you prepare forward. Yeah, we as we started talking

779
00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:42,240
Speaker 1: about it honestly before we got off the plane um

780
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,000
Speaker 1: Sunday night there, knowing that that could be the case.

781
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 1: I mean usually these things tracking if they go up,

782
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: they go up and they hit kind of that that

783
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: metro area there and in DC Baltimore from time to

784
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 1: time with with remnants of it. So we're tracking it,

785
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 1: we're monitoring it, and we'll just take it one day

786
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 1: at a time, all right. That's head coach Sean McDermott

787
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 1: addressing maybe a prior to practice today. We are at

788
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 1: break time here. When we come back, we'll discuss some

789
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,239
Speaker 1: of coach mcdermot's comments and take more of your phone

790
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:09,400
Speaker 1: calls here on one Bill's Line. Presented by Collat of Health,

791
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:25,160
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bills Radio join at wall I Care for

00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 1: in Florida next we got first Dave. Hey, how are

800
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:56,439
Speaker 1: you guys doing today? Yeah, I'm down here Gudgings the hurricane. Yeah,

801
00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 1: good luck. I watched the game last week and when

802
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 1: Josh too ended her ground in the fourth quarter, and

803
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,319
Speaker 1: then he went to the bench and they were looking

804
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: at his right hand. Now, what I'm trying to find

805
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 1: out is how is his hand? Yeah, I don't get

806
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 1: no information down. Yeah. Yeah, So he after the game,

807
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 1: he we're waiting to go in the locker room. He

808
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:28,359
Speaker 1: walked right past us to go to the X ray

809
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 1: room right after the game went and got x rays.

810
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:37,240
Speaker 1: They were negative. And coach was asked about Josh today

811
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 1: and he said everything with his hand checked out. Fine.

812
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 1: It's essentially a bruised hand, is what he had. So

813
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: how did that happen? I think he probably beat it

814
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:49,200
Speaker 1: on somebody's head when he followed through. He said, it

815
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: got caught between a couple of guys. Yeah, it might

816
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 1: have got caught on a pile up on his face

817
00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:55,960
Speaker 1: that he played a ninety snaps and he was on

818
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 1: the ground some and all of that, so thought it

819
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:06,399
Speaker 1: was a snap that he took. Yeah, all, he didn't

820
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 1: indicate that, so he said. I think he said it

821
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:11,640
Speaker 1: got caught between a couple of guys and a pile

822
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 1: up somewhere in the game. That is not why he

823
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 1: missed that throw, though. To Isaiah mackenzie on fourth and goal,

824
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 1: it's it's throwing mechanics there. Yes, he wanted to get

825
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 1: it out quick. But if you look at his throwing mechanics,

826
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 1: he is flat footed, open hipped, and he just tries

827
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:31,239
Speaker 1: to arm it there and that's when you Yeah, that's

828
00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:37,320
Speaker 1: when you fall victim to a ball dying on you prematurely.

829
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:41,080
Speaker 1: And that's what happened there. So if he hops and

830
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:45,440
Speaker 1: sets his feet and drives into the throw, it's probably

831
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 1: there and on the money. But you know, the play

832
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:51,880
Speaker 1: clock's winding down, it's fourth and goal. Maybe he's his

833
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 1: internal clock is rushed a little bit and he wants

834
00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:56,280
Speaker 1: to get it out there fast. And in the past

835
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: he has found a way to arm throws to certain

836
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:03,320
Speaker 1: places accessfully, but out to your right. When you're open

837
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 1: hipped like that and you throw flat footed, you know,

838
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 1: we've had Jordan Palmer on this show several times, who

839
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 1: works with him in the offseason. He will tell you

840
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 1: your mechanics can fall victim to inaccuracy if you throw

841
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 1: it that way. So it's a learning thing, and that's

842
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,479
Speaker 1: why you know, you hear Josh all the time say

843
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:22,480
Speaker 1: a lot of throws I want back, a lot of

844
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:25,000
Speaker 1: things to learn from. That's something he can learn from

845
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:28,760
Speaker 1: that exact play. He's open hipped, he's flat footed, doesn't

846
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 1: step into the throw, and granted he's got pressure in

847
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 1: his face too. We're not blaming him for the mechanics.

848
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 1: Those are just the mechanics he had to utilize on

849
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:39,439
Speaker 1: that play. But they're not sound mechanics in any way,

850
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 1: shape or form. And that's why sometimes you know you

851
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:45,280
Speaker 1: have to actually could have stepped and thrown it properly

852
00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 1: looking at it. He just hurried the throw. He could

853
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:51,360
Speaker 1: get it and and one hopped it out there. But

854
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,440
Speaker 1: as far as his hand injury, that the last we

855
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 1: heard about it was like today he got he addressed.

856
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,920
Speaker 1: It's like it's and you know you watched Josh out there.

857
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:00,840
Speaker 1: He's got nothing on his hands. He's thrown he's not

858
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 1: even Yeah, you probably used it on Monday. I iced

859
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,399
Speaker 1: it on Tuesday, got some treatment, good to go. Yeah,

860
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,480
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem to be any lingering effects at all.

861
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:12,080
Speaker 1: Back to the phones into Robin, Connecticut where you got

862
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:15,399
Speaker 1: first Rob, gentlemen, how are you doing today? We're doing

863
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,359
Speaker 1: pretty good. All right. Well, it's a pleasure to speak

864
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 1: with Chris, and you was as well, Steve. I enjoyed

865
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:24,880
Speaker 1: watching you back in the days. What I'd like to

866
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 1: say is that when I think of the Buffalo Bills today,

867
00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 1: this team is a resilient team, and they also persevere

868
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:38,319
Speaker 1: through everything. Since twenty eighteen, that's all they've ever done

869
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: them all right, And Chris, you touched on something on

870
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:45,279
Speaker 1: Monday that has stuck with me every night before I

871
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:48,720
Speaker 1: go to bed, and that was the fact that when

872
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 1: you walked through the locker room and everybody was loading

873
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: the bus and Josh Allen was sitting there still in

874
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:59,879
Speaker 1: his uniform. Yeah, that just goes to show what kind

875
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 1: of person he is. And knowing that that happened reminded

876
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:07,840
Speaker 1: me of when Stefan Dick had his hands on his

877
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:12,040
Speaker 1: hips after that loss against Kansas City in the AFC

878
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:16,240
Speaker 1: Championship Game. This is the kind of team that learns

879
00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 1: from what happened on Sunday. Just like von Miller had stated,

880
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:24,800
Speaker 1: this is good medicine for us. So, I mean, there's

881
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 1: nothing to worry about. Things happen. It's going to happen.

882
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 1: But as far as this Buffalo Builds football team today,

883
00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:36,360
Speaker 1: all it is is trusting the process. And when I

884
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:42,560
Speaker 1: mean trusting the process, trust the process of the running game. Fans, listen,

885
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:48,279
Speaker 1: You've got Singletary, You've got Zach Moss, and you've got

886
00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,239
Speaker 1: a young kid just coming out of college games Cook

887
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 1: who is actually an all purpose back when you think

888
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:59,640
Speaker 1: about it, give him a chance. Trust me. But our

889
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:03,800
Speaker 1: game is, yes, we like to throw the ball. As

890
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott was saying, it's all a process and they're

891
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 1: gonna find a way and they're gonna work the running

892
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:15,040
Speaker 1: game into our system where it's all gonna even out,

893
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 1: and that's all we have to do. Just believe in

894
00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 1: the fact that we can persevere through each game. Now

895
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:26,080
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the season, you know, I have

896
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:28,760
Speaker 1: friends I wear my Buffalo Bill stuff all the time

897
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,480
Speaker 1: and they're always saying to me, oh, you guys are

898
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:35,520
Speaker 1: gonna go to the Super Bowl. You're going undefeated. I said, whoa, whoa, whoa,

899
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:39,160
Speaker 1: whoa whoa. One game at a time, my friend, Okay,

900
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:42,120
Speaker 1: one game at a time. And as far as the

901
00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:43,840
Speaker 1: other thing, I wanted to stay all in there with this.

902
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:46,879
Speaker 1: The other thing is stuck out, is what Steve said

903
00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:51,560
Speaker 1: the other day. It was a dominating loss. It was

904
00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 1: a dominating loss. We did not lose to Miami, all right.

905
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,160
Speaker 1: It was just those miscus and the things that we

906
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:03,520
Speaker 1: didn't capitalize. I thought, So there's nothing to get upset about. Yes,

907
00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 1: I was a little disappointed, but there's nothing to get

908
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:09,799
Speaker 1: upset about this Buffalo Bills team. They're resilient and they

909
00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,160
Speaker 1: will persevere through everything that they do. They work hard,

910
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: all right, And I just want to let you guys

911
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:17,319
Speaker 1: know that. Thanks all right, thanks for the calling. Rob

912
00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:22,240
Speaker 1: appreciate it. Yeah, I mean, I mean I mentioned Josh,

913
00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 1: who's sitting there seething about the loss. You know, a

914
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,960
Speaker 1: half hour after he's done with media and everybody's left

915
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,279
Speaker 1: the locker room, it's still sitting with him and eating

916
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,359
Speaker 1: at him. He's not the only guy on this team.

917
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 1: Rob Astuteley pointed out, you know, Stefan Diggs has got

918
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 1: his hands on his head, staring at the AFC Championship

919
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:39,960
Speaker 1: celebration after the twenty twenty season came to an end

920
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:43,160
Speaker 1: in Kansas City, watching the Chiefs celebrate the fact that

921
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:48,000
Speaker 1: they were going back to the Super Bowl. So, yeah,

922
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:51,520
Speaker 1: those are the kinds of players that Brandon Being and

923
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:54,239
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott want on their team, where losing is not

924
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:58,440
Speaker 1: acceptable and winning is the only object. That's who, that's

925
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 1: who they look for. They don't always get it right,

926
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:03,839
Speaker 1: but ninety five times out of a hundred they do. Yeah,

927
00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:06,480
Speaker 1: And you can dissect every loss all you want to

928
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 1: and try and look for things that the teams does wrong,

929
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 1: and you know all the things that go wrong and

930
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:16,480
Speaker 1: team does wrong, and you can blame them for the loss. Okay,

931
00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:19,560
Speaker 1: And they always lose close games and they always win big.

932
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 1: And somehouse people construe they lose close games as being

933
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:28,920
Speaker 1: a problem, as if losing by half their games by

934
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:31,960
Speaker 1: double digits is better. I don't know, but all I'm

935
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,759
Speaker 1: saying is, yeah, it's a good football team. They're still

936
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 1: a good football team. They wouldn't be a different football

937
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:39,320
Speaker 1: team if they had gotten the field goal off in

938
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,880
Speaker 1: the last minutes of the Miami game and won it.

939
00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 1: They're still the same football team today as they would

940
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 1: have been in that case, so it was not overreact.

941
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:51,000
Speaker 1: Break time for us here. When we come back, we're

942
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,480
Speaker 1: going to be joined in the next hour by Reggie

943
00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:58,239
Speaker 1: Gilliam Buffalo's Do It All Fullback. We'll be joining us

944
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 1: coming up here in a little bit on Bill's Live,

00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 1: Bills Live is the show players wrapping up practice. We

Speaker 1: hope to have Reggie Gilliam in here shortly, but in

950
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:56,960
Speaker 1: the interim we will go back to the phones at

951
00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:59,360
Speaker 1: eight three, five fifty to hear from you as we

952
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,680
Speaker 1: get ready for Bill's Ravens on Sunday and Matt and

953
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 1: Rochester is next. What do you have for us? Matt, Hey, guys,

954
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:10,320
Speaker 1: I had a question, and forgive me if I missed something.

955
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:17,239
Speaker 1: Where's sir Rod Neil Well, he's working special teams. He's

956
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:20,239
Speaker 1: a core for special teamer and actually Coach McDermott, who

957
00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:24,000
Speaker 1: he played just last hour, was asked about why is

958
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:28,719
Speaker 1: Serrand Neil not a factor in the defensive rotation at cornerback.

959
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:30,719
Speaker 1: You know, they had JaMarcus Ingram come up off the

960
00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:33,360
Speaker 1: practice and step right into the game, And it was

961
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:38,080
Speaker 1: clear that the weather played a factor in that they

962
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:41,920
Speaker 1: wanted Serrand Neil in top form on special teams, didn't

963
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:45,680
Speaker 1: want to overtax him on defense, and so I think

964
00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:48,359
Speaker 1: that was part of the reason why you didn't see

965
00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:52,520
Speaker 1: him as a veteran backup call up at the cornerback position.

966
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:56,719
Speaker 1: Might that change this week if they're still shorthanded there,

967
00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:00,319
Speaker 1: It's possible, but I think they value what Serrand Neil

968
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 1: does on special teams so much that there is a

969
00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:06,759
Speaker 1: concern about over taxing him there. I think that's that's

970
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:10,280
Speaker 1: also a reason why we don't see Isaiah McKenzie returning

971
00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 1: punts all that often. He is the kick returner, but

972
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,480
Speaker 1: in terms of returning punts, that falls to Jamison Crowder

973
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,799
Speaker 1: because Isaiah McKenzie plays a lot more snaps this year

974
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:23,240
Speaker 1: on offense. Yeah, it's a player usage thing. Yeah, coach

975
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,520
Speaker 1: addressed it today. They felt overall they'd be more productive

976
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:32,280
Speaker 1: with with Cam was Cam Lewis coming in JaMarcus JaMarcus

977
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 1: Ingram coming in and Saran playing special teams rather than

978
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:40,239
Speaker 1: having Cam do double duty. Right, So they don't want

979
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,920
Speaker 1: him double dipping basically, right, And they just felt they

980
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:46,840
Speaker 1: were overall better if they did that. And I believe me,

981
00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:49,279
Speaker 1: I know what Saran Neil is going through because that

982
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:51,359
Speaker 1: it was the same thing for me. They didn't want

983
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,719
Speaker 1: They wouldn't take me off special teams to play wide out,

984
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 1: even if there was a train wreck on the way

985
00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:58,759
Speaker 1: to the stadium, you know, because they had guys. They

986
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:00,880
Speaker 1: just didn't want to take me off team. Yeah, so

987
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:05,239
Speaker 1: that's the way it goes. I mean, it's it's a

988
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:07,279
Speaker 1: real consideration head coach has got to deal with and

989
00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 1: they made the call, so yeah, it's yeah, he addressed that,

990
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:14,920
Speaker 1: and that's the reason they wanted to stay. They felt overall,

991
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,160
Speaker 1: both on special teams and on defense, they'd be more

992
00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:23,400
Speaker 1: productive with that personnel combination. And I get it. And

993
00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:26,759
Speaker 1: it could change. I mean, if the weather is more favorable,

994
00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:29,120
Speaker 1: if they know it not taxing, if they know it

995
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 1: going in, yeah they might do it differently because they

996
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 1: could prepare to do it. But on the fly, they

997
00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:39,040
Speaker 1: didn't want to do that, right, And let's not forget

998
00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:42,400
Speaker 1: this too. They lost one of their core special teamers

999
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 1: in the first half of that game, and Jake Kumero,

1000
00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:49,040
Speaker 1: who was double dipping and got injured, And you know

1001
00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:51,200
Speaker 1: that's a concern too. You can get hurt on any

1002
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:54,759
Speaker 1: given play, and Jake Kumero gets hurt in the first

1003
00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:58,320
Speaker 1: half as a wide receiver can't play the rest of

1004
00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:01,000
Speaker 1: the game. So special teams was already down one of

1005
00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:03,919
Speaker 1: their core special teamers. You put Siran Neil out there

1006
00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,320
Speaker 1: on defense at corner, now you're exposing him to extra

1007
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,920
Speaker 1: snaps and extra risk of injury, not to mention losing

1008
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:14,600
Speaker 1: more water, you know, getting dehydrated playing more snaps. So

1009
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:18,120
Speaker 1: if they were thinking about not playing Serrand Neil at

1010
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,920
Speaker 1: corner after Jake Kumero, one of their other core special teamers,

1011
00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 1: gets hurt, you can best believe there was no way

1012
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:25,200
Speaker 1: he was going to see the field on defense after

1013
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:28,640
Speaker 1: watching that happen, because then you're down another important special

1014
00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:31,920
Speaker 1: teams player. Now you're thin on defense, you're thin on

1015
00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 1: special teams combined, and now you're even a weaker team

1016
00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:37,319
Speaker 1: in terms of all three phases. So that's kind of

1017
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:41,359
Speaker 1: where I think the thinking went on that front. So

1018
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,960
Speaker 1: there you go, and you know, going into this week's game,

1019
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:47,879
Speaker 1: as we mentioned, whether it could be a factor again

1020
00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:51,160
Speaker 1: in a much different way. Not heat, but wet conditions,

1021
00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:55,800
Speaker 1: windy conditions with Hurricane Ian pretty much a Cat five

1022
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:59,279
Speaker 1: as they're making landfall in southwest Florida. By the time

1023
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,480
Speaker 1: we get to the week can the track has the

1024
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:04,560
Speaker 1: storm going up the eastern seaboard and right now the

1025
00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:07,880
Speaker 1: forecast is seventy percent chance rain and winds of about

1026
00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:11,120
Speaker 1: twenty to twenty five miles per hour. So that's nothing

1027
00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:15,160
Speaker 1: to sneeze at that is impactful on an NFL game.

1028
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:18,120
Speaker 1: I looked it up last night because I couldn't remember

1029
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:22,600
Speaker 1: Steve whether M ANDT Bank Stadium at natural grass or turf.

1030
00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:26,000
Speaker 1: When they first opened, it was natural grass. But because

1031
00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:31,360
Speaker 1: of field condition issues, particularly late in the season down there,

1032
00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:35,520
Speaker 1: you know, late November December home games were a problem

1033
00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:38,240
Speaker 1: with the grass. They switched over to turf in two

1034
00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:41,440
Speaker 1: thousand and two. They've updated in the years since and

1035
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:45,440
Speaker 1: they are a turf field, so hopefully drainage is not

1036
00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:49,120
Speaker 1: an issue. You won't have mud as an issue either

1037
00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:52,680
Speaker 1: if they have torrential rains, you know through the course

1038
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:56,520
Speaker 1: of Sunday. But the forecast is for plenty of rain.

1039
00:57:58,160 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 1: It's crazy. I was looking at some of the FOE

1040
00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 1: asks for Florida, Like Daytona Beach is supposed to get

1041
00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:07,640
Speaker 1: between twelve and eighteen inches of rain. It's like a

1042
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:09,960
Speaker 1: foot and a half of rain. And what is the thing?

1043
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:12,440
Speaker 1: It's one inch of rain is ten inches of snow.

1044
00:58:13,240 --> 00:58:17,840
Speaker 1: Think about that eighteen it's just snow. Eighteen inches of

1045
00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:20,520
Speaker 1: rain would be one hundred and eighty inches of snow.

1046
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:24,000
Speaker 1: Ye holy macar, think over twelve feet of snow. The

1047
00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 1: thing is too, they're supposed to get that rain, between

1048
00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:28,880
Speaker 1: twelve and eighteen inches of rain on top of a

1049
00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:31,720
Speaker 1: six to eight foot storm surge. Right, Well, you're in

1050
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:35,919
Speaker 1: land in Daytona. Well yeah, they're not baiting, not Daytona Beach.

1051
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:41,520
Speaker 1: Not Daytona Beach. You're so yeah, it's this storm is catastrophic.

1052
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:43,760
Speaker 1: I was thinking of Orlando because Orlando is gonna get

1053
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 1: about twelve inches of rain too. They're obviously in central Yea.

1054
00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:50,120
Speaker 1: But still it's an issue. The whole twelve inches of

1055
00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:53,680
Speaker 1: rain anywhere, it's an issue, right, It's it's bad, folks,

1056
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 1: and check on your loved ones in Florida, and we

1057
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:57,800
Speaker 1: had a guy call in from where'd you call in

1058
00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:00,280
Speaker 1: from today? He didn't say, he just said he's in Florida.

1059
00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:02,479
Speaker 1: So yeah, we're battening down the hatches here. He didn't

1060
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:06,400
Speaker 1: tell us where he was. Typically, it's catastrophic and there's

1061
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:09,040
Speaker 1: a chance we're gonna lose some lives. It's it's bad,

1062
00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,840
Speaker 1: it's really bad. So when we sit here and talk

1063
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:16,920
Speaker 1: about the Bills game coming up in Baltimore, there's some

1064
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:19,720
Speaker 1: serious stuff going on. All right. We just got an

1065
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:28,280
Speaker 1: updated weather forecast for Sunday and now the wind forecast

1066
00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:31,400
Speaker 1: has dropped considerably. Now they're only expecting ten mile per

1067
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:36,040
Speaker 1: hour wins. Well, that's good news. And where are we

1068
00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:38,800
Speaker 1: Sunday or fifteen miles per hour? Sorry I was reading

1069
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:42,600
Speaker 1: the wrong Sunday fifteen mile per hour wins. Chance of

1070
00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:46,320
Speaker 1: rain is now down to fifty two percent Saturday, the

1071
00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:48,480
Speaker 1: rain is supposed to be ninety four percent. The good

1072
00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:50,800
Speaker 1: news is they can keep the field covered on Saturday,

1073
00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:55,120
Speaker 1: so the rain showers are supposed to be dissipating come

1074
00:59:55,240 --> 01:00:00,360
Speaker 1: Sunday to some degree there. But you know we're still

1075
01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:03,640
Speaker 1: four or five days out. Oh, so the track of

1076
01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:06,920
Speaker 1: the storm is going to impact that forecast right now.

1077
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:09,720
Speaker 1: It's a very slow moving storm ten miles per hour.

1078
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,080
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just that's why that's why the rain

1079
01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 1: total forecasts are so high, because the thing's moving at

1080
01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:18,440
Speaker 1: a snail's pace. It's not whipping across the peninsula Florida.

1081
01:00:18,520 --> 01:00:20,760
Speaker 1: That's one of the bad things as well, because it's

1082
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:24,800
Speaker 1: the storm. Search spends so long on each site where

1083
01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:26,880
Speaker 1: it moves to. It's a slow moving storm and something

1084
01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:29,960
Speaker 1: it's each one, I guess has up pluses and minuses.

1085
01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:32,360
Speaker 1: The minus is that it takes a long time to

1086
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 1: go across and it's going to have every opportunity to

1087
01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:38,920
Speaker 1: tear everything up. It's it's a bad storm, man, it

1088
01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:42,760
Speaker 1: is so bad. So we'll see, I mean, it'll have

1089
01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:44,640
Speaker 1: some kind of impact on the game, hopefully not a

1090
01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:48,600
Speaker 1: major impact. Wanted to remind you we're waiting to catch

1091
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 1: up with Reggie Gilliam, Bills fullback, who should be on

1092
01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:53,840
Speaker 1: set here with us in just a little bit of

1093
01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:56,640
Speaker 1: time because we heard the music stop at practice. It's

1094
01:00:56,680 --> 01:01:01,320
Speaker 1: audible from here. So practice is wrapping up for Wednesday,

1095
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:04,919
Speaker 1: and we also hope to bring you some comments from

1096
01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:08,560
Speaker 1: the podium as the players address the media after practice.

1097
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:14,160
Speaker 1: And then coming up at two thirty, we hope to

1098
01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:19,240
Speaker 1: catch up with former Ravens tight end Daniel Wilcox, who

1099
01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:24,240
Speaker 1: now does the Believe in Ravens podcast for his coverage

1100
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:26,360
Speaker 1: of the Ravens. Like to get some thoughts from him,

1101
01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:28,760
Speaker 1: being a former tight end on Mark Andrews, who really

1102
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:31,800
Speaker 1: is just tearing it up in terms of production. He's

1103
01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:35,439
Speaker 1: been unbelievable over the last year. As a matter of fact,

1104
01:01:35,440 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 1: he's been a more productive tight end than even Travis

1105
01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:40,680
Speaker 1: Kelsey has for the Kansas City Chiefs. He is difficult

1106
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:45,760
Speaker 1: to stop. Just a big physical dude. I can really

1107
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:49,960
Speaker 1: tear it up, so be interesting to see. And he's

1108
01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 1: the leading receiver for the Ravens this year, no surprise there,

1109
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:56,880
Speaker 1: even though they use Rashad Bateman and they also use

1110
01:01:56,960 --> 01:02:01,680
Speaker 1: Devin DuVernay. You know they're big. They're big deep threats

1111
01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:04,360
Speaker 1: who have been big play threats. But right now, fresh

1112
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:08,800
Speaker 1: off the field is Reggie Gilliam, Bill's fullback and Fresh

1113
01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:10,880
Speaker 1: off the Field Interviews brought to you by Austin Air,

1114
01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:14,000
Speaker 1: the official clean air provider, or the Buffalo Bills. Thanks

1115
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:15,959
Speaker 1: for taking some time here, you're still in your pats.

1116
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:19,720
Speaker 1: Thanks for coming straight here. We appreciate it. Um, I've

1117
01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:23,200
Speaker 1: been fascinated by coach Dorsey's usage of the twenty one

1118
01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:25,240
Speaker 1: personnel here early in the season. That's got to make

1119
01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:28,080
Speaker 1: you happy as well. It was funny. We had Roger

1120
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:31,200
Speaker 1: Staffold in here a couple of weeks ago and we

1121
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,320
Speaker 1: were talking about, you know, how you're being used in

1122
01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:35,920
Speaker 1: a multitude of ways within the scope of the offense Reggie,

1123
01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:38,200
Speaker 1: and he said, yeah, Reggie comes into the huddle sometimes

1124
01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:42,400
Speaker 1: he's like, all right, what am I? How often does that? Yeah,

1125
01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:44,160
Speaker 1: there's there's been a few times where after you know,

1126
01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:45,600
Speaker 1: I hear a plan and I was like, Okay, I

1127
01:02:45,600 --> 01:02:46,960
Speaker 1: know what he's got. I know what he's got. I'm like,

1128
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:50,520
Speaker 1: which one am I just takes a second. Yeah. Registered Also,

1129
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:52,200
Speaker 1: that's one of the things about it, you're kind of

1130
01:02:52,240 --> 01:02:54,000
Speaker 1: more flexible. He came in as a tight end, moved

1131
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:56,600
Speaker 1: you to fullback, and it really is and it doesn't

1132
01:02:56,640 --> 01:02:58,520
Speaker 1: feel like this when it happens, but it really is

1133
01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:00,240
Speaker 1: a testament to how bad they want to keep you

1134
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:02,920
Speaker 1: on the field and your versatility. What have they told

1135
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:06,880
Speaker 1: you about your role going forward? And what do they

1136
01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:08,640
Speaker 1: tell you week to week, particularly in the game like

1137
01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:10,520
Speaker 1: this it's just really more, the more you can do,

1138
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:12,400
Speaker 1: that's what they always tell me. It's like, so, I

1139
01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:14,040
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, we're gonna put you here. We're gonna

1140
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:15,480
Speaker 1: see if you can handle this. You know, I just

1141
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:18,080
Speaker 1: don't blink. You gotta keep rolling with it, right, You

1142
01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:21,600
Speaker 1: were you emergency tight end by the end of that

1143
01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:24,080
Speaker 1: game last week, because it was basically Quintin Morris and

1144
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,280
Speaker 1: nobody else. I had to believe you were like tight

1145
01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:28,120
Speaker 1: end too at that point. If they need to turn

1146
01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:31,840
Speaker 1: to somebody else, really, I am wegency anything. So so

1147
01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:34,320
Speaker 1: if we're down anywhere, I can fill in. Yeah, I

1148
01:03:34,360 --> 01:03:36,400
Speaker 1: mean I was. I was looking up and down the roster.

1149
01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:38,760
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, it's probably Reggie. If something happens

1150
01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:40,760
Speaker 1: to Quinton, give us some give us an idea about

1151
01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:42,880
Speaker 1: the atmosphere on the sideline. As this game was going,

1152
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:45,840
Speaker 1: everybody was starting to melt a little bit. Yeah, what

1153
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 1: was the atmosphere? In the conversations on the sideline, there

1154
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:49,040
Speaker 1: was a lot of people just trying to keep each

1155
01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:51,680
Speaker 1: other up because you know, tough atmosphere, you know, baking

1156
01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:53,880
Speaker 1: in the sun. So it's like, okay, we gotta keep pushing,

1157
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:55,880
Speaker 1: like we're still in this game, let's finish strong and

1158
01:03:56,400 --> 01:04:00,520
Speaker 1: we can rest later. So yeah, and the forecast is

1159
01:04:00,560 --> 01:04:02,280
Speaker 1: still a few days away. It looks like weather could

1160
01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:05,040
Speaker 1: be a factor again this week in a much different way.

1161
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:09,040
Speaker 1: Yet nothing where you're probably happy that it's right. You're

1162
01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:12,120
Speaker 1: probably happy it's a turf field, though, because when you're

1163
01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:14,440
Speaker 1: playing on turf, even if it's a monsoon, your footing

1164
01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:18,520
Speaker 1: is usually pretty good. Sometimes that synthetic grass, though, can

1165
01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:21,400
Speaker 1: get slick, right, Like, maybe just walk us through, Like

1166
01:04:21,520 --> 01:04:23,840
Speaker 1: are you using a longer cleat when it's super rainy

1167
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:25,760
Speaker 1: even if it's turf, or what are you doing? There's

1168
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,000
Speaker 1: a choice? See, turf is tricky because there's so many

1169
01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:29,640
Speaker 1: different types of turf, Like I don't know the like

1170
01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:32,040
Speaker 1: political names for him or whatever, but like you could

1171
01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:35,160
Speaker 1: feel it, you know, somewhere more soft, somewhere bouncy, somewhere hard.

1172
01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:37,280
Speaker 1: So it's like you don't really know until you get

1173
01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:38,520
Speaker 1: out on the field. So you know it's smart to

1174
01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:40,360
Speaker 1: take game will be important. Yeah, take a few pairs

1175
01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:41,760
Speaker 1: of cleats and go try them out in pregame to

1176
01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:43,720
Speaker 1: see which one feels best for you. Got you, Yeah,

1177
01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:45,400
Speaker 1: And as you get in there, you know this is

1178
01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 1: a different kind of team as well. Early thoughts on

1179
01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:52,080
Speaker 1: facing this defense. They're a great defense. They got a

1180
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:54,919
Speaker 1: great front, a lot of big guys on the front line,

1181
01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:56,440
Speaker 1: So you know, we're gonna have a great plan to

1182
01:04:57,480 --> 01:04:59,400
Speaker 1: put us some best position to be successful. What do

1183
01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:04,880
Speaker 1: you make of their unicorn of a fullback m fullbacks

1184
01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:10,600
Speaker 1: respect fullbacks. Yeah, but Patrick recard Man guys three h five. Yeah,

1185
01:05:10,800 --> 01:05:14,160
Speaker 1: that's that's a unicorn among fullbacks, right. Yeah. I'm a

1186
01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:16,360
Speaker 1: big fan of his work. So actually he was a

1187
01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:20,320
Speaker 1: d tackle. Yeah, yeah, you know, he's a freak athletic

1188
01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:21,880
Speaker 1: d tackle. So I'm sure they were just like, let's

1189
01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:23,640
Speaker 1: put this guy fullback, see what he can do. So

1190
01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:26,040
Speaker 1: obviously he's a you know, phenomenal blocker, but he can

1191
01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:28,600
Speaker 1: also move at the ball in his hand. So for

1192
01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:31,960
Speaker 1: three or five a big dude, it's not like just

1193
01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:35,280
Speaker 1: clear this guy out of the hole. He had a

1194
01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:37,480
Speaker 1: reception last week, Yeah for a first Yeah, it's like

1195
01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:41,600
Speaker 1: thirteen yard game. I think that's impressive. Yeah, it is

1196
01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:47,280
Speaker 1: red zone. Uh, in the eyes of many is kind

1197
01:05:47,320 --> 01:05:49,440
Speaker 1: of what cost you guys the game last week. I

1198
01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:52,160
Speaker 1: realized you were playing not that this is an excuse,

1199
01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:55,200
Speaker 1: but you had only the left side of your line

1200
01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 1: left by the end of the game, which obviously can

1201
01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:02,880
Speaker 1: impact consistency. No one had a playoff one another, combination blocks, etc. Um.

1202
01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:06,160
Speaker 1: What has to change down there in the red area

1203
01:06:06,280 --> 01:06:09,240
Speaker 1: going forward here to make sure you guys are more

1204
01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:11,800
Speaker 1: consistent about finishing drives in the end zone. This comes

1205
01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:13,600
Speaker 1: down to execution. You know, we need to do what

1206
01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:15,880
Speaker 1: you know, Dorsey's putting in plant for us. You know,

1207
01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:17,560
Speaker 1: no matter who's in there, you know, they always say

1208
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:19,600
Speaker 1: next man up. So that's the mentality we have to

1209
01:06:19,600 --> 01:06:20,960
Speaker 1: go into with it. You know, we might lose a

1210
01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:23,400
Speaker 1: few more or you know, whoever's coming back, I'm not

1211
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:25,920
Speaker 1: sure yet, but either way, whoever's in there, it's execution.

1212
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:30,720
Speaker 1: Who's imitating Lamar and processes? Today? It was tavon Austin

1213
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:35,080
Speaker 1: table we were we were we were kind of messing

1214
01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:37,240
Speaker 1: with each other taking bets AND's gonna do it? Who

1215
01:06:37,280 --> 01:06:38,760
Speaker 1: would be? And I said, I think it's gonna be

1216
01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 1: Tap because that's the I mean, as far as a

1217
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:43,680
Speaker 1: running guy, he would make sense from a skill set,

1218
01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:46,840
Speaker 1: like you want to mimic as Lamar. He's not as

1219
01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:50,280
Speaker 1: tall obviously, but you want speed. Yeah, he looked good.

1220
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:54,320
Speaker 1: Out there though you completed a few passes. Yeah, that's awesome.

1221
01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:57,040
Speaker 1: It doesn't spell good things for Sunday though, if you

1222
01:06:57,120 --> 01:07:01,040
Speaker 1: got Tavon Austin completely passes. Uh okay. So why don't

1223
01:07:01,040 --> 01:07:05,320
Speaker 1: we look at maybe the complexion of this game, because

1224
01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:07,400
Speaker 1: you know, you guys want to get back on the

1225
01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:12,000
Speaker 1: winning track, obviously, but you got a team that historically

1226
01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:14,800
Speaker 1: is tough to beat in that building. I mean under Jim,

1227
01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:18,320
Speaker 1: under John Harbaugh, the Ravens have like a seventy one

1228
01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:20,919
Speaker 1: percent winning percentage down. It's a tough place to play.

1229
01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:24,680
Speaker 1: How do you and you're on offense, you know it's

1230
01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:26,880
Speaker 1: going to be loud, so I know, you guys, you

1231
01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:30,600
Speaker 1: silent count out the wazoo, and coaches got music blairing

1232
01:07:30,640 --> 01:07:32,560
Speaker 1: all the time. So it's just becomes like a white

1233
01:07:32,640 --> 01:07:35,320
Speaker 1: noise thing that you guys can kind of overlook. But

1234
01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:39,640
Speaker 1: what is the approach when you know you're encountering a

1235
01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:42,080
Speaker 1: hostile environment. Well, we know what we're getting into, and

1236
01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:44,160
Speaker 1: we know we're going to be in preparation, you know,

1237
01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:46,400
Speaker 1: to put ourselves in the best position to be successful.

1238
01:07:46,440 --> 01:07:48,960
Speaker 1: You know, Doris and Sean, you know they're gonna have

1239
01:07:48,960 --> 01:07:50,680
Speaker 1: a great plan for us, and you just said, you know,

1240
01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:53,360
Speaker 1: the music blaring and silent counsel. You know, I just

1241
01:07:53,480 --> 01:07:54,960
Speaker 1: listen to what they tell us to do. I know,

1242
01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:56,680
Speaker 1: I know they'll take care of it for us. What

1243
01:07:56,960 --> 01:08:00,240
Speaker 1: kind of what kind of gut you know, good natured

1244
01:08:00,360 --> 01:08:03,640
Speaker 1: ribbing has Ken Dorsey taken after he tore apart the

1245
01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:07,360
Speaker 1: press box after the interest those guys gotta be all

1246
01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:10,720
Speaker 1: over right. Yeah, he's a very passionate guy, you know,

1247
01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:13,480
Speaker 1: passionate to say the least. But you know that's just

1248
01:08:13,560 --> 01:08:15,200
Speaker 1: how Dorsey. You know, I don't want to say that's

1249
01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:16,960
Speaker 1: how he is, but like he's you know, he's fired

1250
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:18,400
Speaker 1: up about his job and he loves what he does.

1251
01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:21,920
Speaker 1: So for that to happen, you know, unfortunate situation. You know,

1252
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:24,880
Speaker 1: has true color showed some there, but that's how that's Dorsey.

1253
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:28,320
Speaker 1: You factored into the passing game in the Tennessee game obviously,

1254
01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:30,479
Speaker 1: you know he took that screen, broke a tackle, got

1255
01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:36,160
Speaker 1: in for the touchdown. And then last week, Motor James,

1256
01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:40,479
Speaker 1: I mean even Zach uh factored into the passing game

1257
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 1: in a big way. I think the backside like fifteen

1258
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:46,479
Speaker 1: sixteen catches last week. I know that Devin was largely

1259
01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:50,400
Speaker 1: a safety valve option for Josh there. But what does

1260
01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:53,280
Speaker 1: that do for the room when you know you're contributing

1261
01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:55,280
Speaker 1: in a way that maybe not a whole lot of

1262
01:08:55,360 --> 01:08:57,800
Speaker 1: people expect if they expect you guys to get handed

1263
01:08:57,840 --> 01:09:00,920
Speaker 1: the ball. But fifteen sixteen were options. I mean that's yeah,

1264
01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:03,679
Speaker 1: that's big for the running back. So so yeah, with doors,

1265
01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:06,280
Speaker 1: anybody can be anywhere. So it's like you can't just

1266
01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:09,000
Speaker 1: know your spot. You may have to know a couple spots.

1267
01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:10,960
Speaker 1: It's like me, like, I have to know all this

1268
01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:14,479
Speaker 1: right whatever, so so exactly so it doesn't matter you

1269
01:09:14,560 --> 01:09:17,000
Speaker 1: know what position you are by roster label. It's yeah,

1270
01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:19,840
Speaker 1: you could be catching as many passes as a receiver one.

1271
01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:21,840
Speaker 1: So you get out of this game Sunday and you're

1272
01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:23,760
Speaker 1: looking towards this one, you get a you know, you

1273
01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:27,040
Speaker 1: got a whole Thursday, Friday, Saturday, three more days before Sunday.

1274
01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:29,000
Speaker 1: How has it gone in the recovery because I know

1275
01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:32,160
Speaker 1: it was a really rough physical game this last weekend

1276
01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:34,800
Speaker 1: and the heat and the humidity and everybody falls out

1277
01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:37,640
Speaker 1: getting rehydrate. How has it gone this week trying to

1278
01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:40,800
Speaker 1: bounce back from that? You know a lot of guys

1279
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:42,479
Speaker 1: have the routines, and I think it's just staying in

1280
01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:45,040
Speaker 1: our routine, you know, can't staying on the same preparation track,

1281
01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:47,000
Speaker 1: getting in the training room, doing whatever you need to

1282
01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:48,800
Speaker 1: do to be ready to go. So we have the

1283
01:09:49,479 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 1: sad yesterday also a lot of guys were in there

1284
01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:54,519
Speaker 1: getting right, you know, ivs, whatever it may be. Yeah, well,

1285
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:57,639
Speaker 1: rech listen, thanks for stopping in, especially fresh off the field. There.

1286
01:09:57,880 --> 01:09:59,920
Speaker 1: We'll let you hit the showers and kind of get

1287
01:10:00,040 --> 01:10:01,240
Speaker 1: in the classroom and do what you got to do

1288
01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:02,760
Speaker 1: for the rest of the day today. We appreciate it.

1289
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:04,960
Speaker 1: Good luck on Sunday. Appreciate your guys. All right, that's

1290
01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:08,439
Speaker 1: Reggie Gilliam joining us here on One Bills Live and

1291
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:11,320
Speaker 1: we will take a break. When we come back, we'll

1292
01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:14,160
Speaker 1: have Josh Allen for you at the podium as he'll

1293
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:16,519
Speaker 1: be addressing the media after practice here on One Bills Live,

1294
01:10:16,560 --> 01:10:38,360
Speaker 1: presented by klaud of Health. It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right,

1295
01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:40,759
Speaker 1: welcome back to one Bills Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker

1296
01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:44,000
Speaker 1: with you. Players are addressing the media at the post

1297
01:10:44,080 --> 01:10:46,519
Speaker 1: game left turn, So let's go there now where Josh

1298
01:10:46,600 --> 01:11:03,439
Speaker 1: Allen is addressing the media. Mark Jackson beating on that class. UM,

1299
01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:07,519
Speaker 1: not not really. UM. Yeah, typically try to focus on

1300
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:13,240
Speaker 1: the here and now. UM, but it is, uh, it

1301
01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:15,120
Speaker 1: is crazy to think about I know that. You know,

1302
01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:17,839
Speaker 1: you just brought it up. And you know Lamar's as

1303
01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:21,759
Speaker 1: an MVP player. UM, he's playing really really good football

1304
01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:25,479
Speaker 1: right now. So you know, we're we're looking we're going

1305
01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:28,120
Speaker 1: into a hostile environment. We have to find a way

1306
01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:50,040
Speaker 1: to put our best foot forward. I think, you know

1307
01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 1: it's simple as we're we're doing what's asked asked of us. UM.

1308
01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:57,000
Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of different notions and opinions

1309
01:11:57,080 --> 01:12:01,000
Speaker 1: about both of us coming out of the draft. UM,

1310
01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:03,040
Speaker 1: you know, and we're just trying to find ways to

1311
01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:05,519
Speaker 1: help our team win football games. And you know he

1312
01:12:05,640 --> 01:12:08,559
Speaker 1: does it as good as anybody in the league. So UM, again,

1313
01:12:08,600 --> 01:12:11,880
Speaker 1: it's no it's no simple task for our defense to

1314
01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:14,000
Speaker 1: go out there and play a guy like his caliber. UM.

1315
01:12:14,120 --> 01:12:16,160
Speaker 1: And it's no simple task for offense to against a

1316
01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:19,000
Speaker 1: defense and a team of their caliber, with with the

1317
01:12:19,040 --> 01:12:21,720
Speaker 1: head coach that they've got and the continuity that they've

1318
01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:25,040
Speaker 1: had in Baltimore for a long time. UM. So again,

1319
01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:28,960
Speaker 1: we gotta have a good week and prepare for in

1320
01:12:29,080 --> 01:12:32,479
Speaker 1: our toughest battle yet for your first of all, um,

1321
01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:35,880
Speaker 1: the short yardage hips relation. We asked Dorson and Sean

1322
01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:38,080
Speaker 1: about it, and they acknowledge that you guys for his

1323
01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:41,160
Speaker 1: third one thirty two, you guys are struggling. How does that?

1324
01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:44,840
Speaker 1: How do you inclub on that situation? Yeah, I think, um,

1325
01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:49,559
Speaker 1: you know, mindset, execution, Um, it all kind of comes

1326
01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:52,639
Speaker 1: into play and just you know, calling a plane, stickt

1327
01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:54,760
Speaker 1: with it and me not trying to do too much,

1328
01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:58,400
Speaker 1: um and you know, trusting you know, all eleven guys

1329
01:12:58,439 --> 01:12:59,920
Speaker 1: on the field to go out there and execute a job.

1330
01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:02,080
Speaker 1: So you know, we've been putting a lot of those

1331
01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:04,559
Speaker 1: situations and um, you know we're only gonna get better

1332
01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:06,200
Speaker 1: at those, but we got to continue to practice those

1333
01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:09,120
Speaker 1: and find new ways to to get our playmakers the ball.

1334
01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:11,280
Speaker 1: And UM, you know, I got no no doubt in

1335
01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:13,559
Speaker 1: my mind that that's what Dorset will deal. He'll he'll

1336
01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:16,080
Speaker 1: find whatever's best suitable for us and try to apply

1337
01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:17,880
Speaker 1: to our game plan. But ultimately, when we were in

1338
01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:21,400
Speaker 1: the field, we gotta go out there next cute profess

1339
01:13:21,439 --> 01:13:24,320
Speaker 1: the playmakers. Dawson Knox kind of off to what mean

1340
01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:27,160
Speaker 1: nine catches Um off to a little bit of a

1341
01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:28,559
Speaker 1: slow start. I know a lot of that is you're

1342
01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:30,560
Speaker 1: getting the ball to dig. But do you need to

1343
01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:33,240
Speaker 1: find a way to get Dawson a little bit more

1344
01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:37,360
Speaker 1: incorporated into this? I mean, actually, we'd love to love

1345
01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:39,280
Speaker 1: to get everybody at the ball, um and the end

1346
01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:42,679
Speaker 1: of the day, you know, Dawson's doing what he's asked

1347
01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 1: to do, you know, whether it's blocking an end or

1348
01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:46,800
Speaker 1: getting out for checkdowns or running routes, UM. And I

1349
01:13:46,880 --> 01:13:49,479
Speaker 1: got no no doubt that those will eventually pop. You know,

1350
01:13:49,560 --> 01:13:52,040
Speaker 1: There's there's gonna be times where he's asked to do

1351
01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:53,639
Speaker 1: a lot for us. There's gonna be times where he's

1352
01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:55,280
Speaker 1: not not allow asked to do a lot for us,

1353
01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:57,880
Speaker 1: as that goes with everybody else on the football field

1354
01:13:57,880 --> 01:13:59,840
Speaker 1: as well. And I know he's staying patient and he's

1355
01:13:59,840 --> 01:14:02,160
Speaker 1: just ready to do his job whatever that is. UM.

1356
01:14:02,920 --> 01:14:04,800
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'd love to love to find ways to

1357
01:14:04,800 --> 01:14:06,920
Speaker 1: get him the ball and get him, you know, more involved,

1358
01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:08,920
Speaker 1: because he has such a weapon and asset for this team.

1359
01:14:10,600 --> 01:14:15,080
Speaker 1: Like films on Monday, like a tired girl, level of

1378
01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:04,880
Speaker 1: a lot of guys that are doing that. So I

1379
01:15:05,280 --> 01:15:07,680
Speaker 1: had a lot of respects for our guys for you know,

1380
01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:13,120
Speaker 1: handling their business stowaway time that there were ninety plays, Um,

1381
01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:15,439
Speaker 1: you know there were times where they were stacking the

1382
01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:18,880
Speaker 1: line extrementage seventy eight and nine across. You know you

1383
01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:21,679
Speaker 1: see that and then mancovered and have a touch downs

1384
01:15:21,680 --> 01:15:25,320
Speaker 1: in their way. I mean, um, you see it at

1385
01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:28,800
Speaker 1: the problem you any fun any problem to drawing it

1386
01:15:28,840 --> 01:15:32,960
Speaker 1: three times to that's like the game or an uncoll Yeah. Um,

1387
01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:36,000
Speaker 1: whatever's asked you know of us on offense is what

1388
01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:37,680
Speaker 1: we're trying to do. Now. We got to be better

1389
01:15:37,760 --> 01:15:40,800
Speaker 1: in some critical areas of that game and play better

1390
01:15:40,840 --> 01:15:42,960
Speaker 1: situational football. And there's some things that we missed that

1391
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,479
Speaker 1: we'd we'd like to have back. But you know, it's

1392
01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:48,160
Speaker 1: on to Baltimore and uh, we'll be able to use

1393
01:15:48,200 --> 01:15:51,560
Speaker 1: whatever we learned on Sunday, Um, you know for this

1394
01:15:51,720 --> 01:15:55,000
Speaker 1: upcoming week, week and weeks to come. You know, you

1395
01:15:55,120 --> 01:15:58,240
Speaker 1: never never like losing games, Um, especially the way we

1396
01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:00,560
Speaker 1: lost them. But there's still a lot of good that

1397
01:16:00,600 --> 01:16:02,000
Speaker 1: we can take out of that game and a lot

1398
01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:05,040
Speaker 1: of learning opportunities that we can take out. So um

1399
01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:07,400
Speaker 1: and guys got in there, looked at the film and

1400
01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:10,479
Speaker 1: you know, we've turned our our attention and focus towards Baltimore.

1401
01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:15,400
Speaker 1: What every player getting the running game growing or something

1402
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:18,439
Speaker 1: like that. Tortures thought about how important do you think

1403
01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:20,800
Speaker 1: that that is? Do you guys success on offensive, because

1404
01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:23,040
Speaker 1: how do you think that you can start they're running

1405
01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:26,880
Speaker 1: give the year? Yeah, Um, I'd say, just just trusting it,

1406
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:29,400
Speaker 1: trusting actually the guys that have the ball in their hands,

1407
01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:32,280
Speaker 1: trusting our our five six guys up front, UM tight

1408
01:16:32,360 --> 01:16:35,640
Speaker 1: ends included, UM, you know, just sticking with it. You

1409
01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:38,240
Speaker 1: know it's not going to be perfect every single time

1410
01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:40,000
Speaker 1: we call run play and we're not asking for it

1411
01:16:40,080 --> 01:16:42,200
Speaker 1: to be perfect. We're just you know, we're asking for

1412
01:16:42,680 --> 01:16:44,200
Speaker 1: you know, it to be idea the right way and

1413
01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:46,840
Speaker 1: guys giving max effort and you know, making sure that

1414
01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:49,760
Speaker 1: I'm putting us in the right calls and situations, um

1415
01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:51,160
Speaker 1: to go out there and run them. So that's that's

1416
01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:56,360
Speaker 1: really all it takes. Your first response to Mark about Yeah,

1417
01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:59,639
Speaker 1: Sean had said, you're you're pretty sure understandably coming out

1418
01:16:59,640 --> 01:17:01,360
Speaker 1: of that year you have the hand issue whatever, do

1419
01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:03,400
Speaker 1: you have any lingering effects of that? And all the

1420
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:05,720
Speaker 1: better impacted you as you get ready for it. Now

1421
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:08,320
Speaker 1: we're ready to go. Um, and I know there's some

1422
01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:11,720
Speaker 1: I said, there's guys badling, some sorenus and some some

1423
01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:15,920
Speaker 1: minor things that um, you know they're they're gritten through um.

1424
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:18,840
Speaker 1: Like I said, We got a lot of professional guys

1425
01:17:18,840 --> 01:17:20,400
Speaker 1: on this team that are handled the right way and

1426
01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:23,400
Speaker 1: staying in late and getting extra work in in the

1427
01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:25,560
Speaker 1: training center and you know, hot tub, cold tub and

1428
01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:28,040
Speaker 1: all that. Like I said, so, um, you know, we

1429
01:17:28,120 --> 01:17:29,599
Speaker 1: got to find ways to get back on the field.

1430
01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:32,840
Speaker 1: Stand on the field. If you kind of pool up

1431
01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:39,000
Speaker 1: at the end of the game, black a lot a

1432
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:44,680
Speaker 1: lot of fulling in your hand. Are you sharing coming that?

1433
01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:52,680
Speaker 1: And I don't think it was that frustration at all. Um,

1434
01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:56,360
Speaker 1: you show me someone that's okay with losing, I'll show

1435
01:17:56,400 --> 01:17:59,000
Speaker 1: you a loser. You know he's he's passionate about his

1436
01:17:59,160 --> 01:18:01,880
Speaker 1: job and and what he does. Um, we all feel

1437
01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:04,120
Speaker 1: the same way. We just want to win football games.

1438
01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:11,200
Speaker 1: And that's it. Every game is a different situation. Um,

1439
01:18:11,360 --> 01:18:14,320
Speaker 1: obviously we've got to find ways to win them. But um,

1440
01:18:14,520 --> 01:18:16,080
Speaker 1: you know we're working through that. And we don't see

1441
01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:30,080
Speaker 1: that as a promin at all. Do you remember, Well,

1442
01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:32,240
Speaker 1: it's looking like it's gonna be similar weather, um to

1443
01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:35,120
Speaker 1: that game, and it was torrential downpour and that first

1444
01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:37,639
Speaker 1: one and actually going there at half time, I remember

1445
01:18:37,720 --> 01:18:40,360
Speaker 1: the how the ball felt. It was kind of a weird,

1446
01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:45,639
Speaker 1: tacky ball And again it was just torrential downpour. So, um,

1447
01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:48,080
Speaker 1: you know, just gotta make sure that we're ready for that.

1448
01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:52,040
Speaker 1: And the crowd's going to be, um pretty loud. Um.

1449
01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:55,080
Speaker 1: Obviously again with with their coaching staff and in coach

1450
01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:57,000
Speaker 1: our ball, he seems like he's got those guys too

1451
01:18:57,320 --> 01:18:59,760
Speaker 1: ready to go. Every single every single year, every single week,

1452
01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:02,680
Speaker 1: every of every single year. Um, it's no different with

1453
01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:05,040
Speaker 1: this team. Um, they're playing hungry right now and they

1454
01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:07,680
Speaker 1: got some some ball hawks on defense. Um, so we

1455
01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:10,240
Speaker 1: gotta find ways to you know, get our playmakers the

1456
01:19:10,240 --> 01:19:26,240
Speaker 1: ball on the next he plays round. Yeah. Um again

1457
01:19:26,360 --> 01:19:29,240
Speaker 1: I can say this for the mor I mean he's

1458
01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:31,519
Speaker 1: he's an extremely hard worker. Um, you know as am

1459
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:35,720
Speaker 1: I and um, you know, guys respect him and love

1460
01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:37,400
Speaker 1: how he plays the game of football, and he has

1461
01:19:37,400 --> 01:19:38,519
Speaker 1: a lot of fun doing it. I have a lot

1462
01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:41,880
Speaker 1: of fun doing it. Uman. He's he's playing as good

1463
01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:44,360
Speaker 1: as anybody in the league right now. And um, you know,

1464
01:19:44,560 --> 01:19:46,720
Speaker 1: making sure that you know, points are priority this week,

1465
01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:49,200
Speaker 1: the balls a priority this week, and um, you know,

1466
01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:50,479
Speaker 1: we gotta go find a way to win the game.

1467
01:19:51,560 --> 01:19:54,320
Speaker 1: Terms of like Huban as a passer, I mean there

1468
01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:56,639
Speaker 1: are questions about your accuracy and he's more than answered

1469
01:19:56,720 --> 01:19:58,360
Speaker 1: them now. But that was the kind of a question

1470
01:19:58,400 --> 01:20:01,160
Speaker 1: about him. Um, what have you seen from him? Quarterback

1471
01:20:01,200 --> 01:20:05,200
Speaker 1: to quarterback and view? I mean, he just does his job. Um.

1472
01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:09,000
Speaker 1: I don't really evaluate you know, quarterbacks too much. UM,

1473
01:20:09,560 --> 01:20:11,040
Speaker 1: just trying to focus on on what I can do.

1474
01:20:11,200 --> 01:20:14,519
Speaker 1: But UM, I mean again, he's he's won an MVP

1475
01:20:14,640 --> 01:20:17,240
Speaker 1: and he's playing at MVP level right now. And UM,

1476
01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:20,439
Speaker 1: you know, giving all the drama and the details that

1477
01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:22,880
Speaker 1: that are going on, with all that contract situation that

1478
01:20:23,280 --> 01:20:24,920
Speaker 1: you know he's got going on, He's just like, you

1479
01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:28,200
Speaker 1: know what, I'm gonna bet on myself and UM, I'm

1480
01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:42,320
Speaker 1: pretty sure it's gonna pay off. Um. You talk about, yeah,

1481
01:20:42,360 --> 01:20:46,320
Speaker 1: I think obviously being better in situational football. UM. And again,

1482
01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:51,880
Speaker 1: every game presents its own opportunities, UM, and obstacles that

1483
01:20:51,920 --> 01:20:53,800
Speaker 1: we got to find a way to fight through. And

1484
01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:57,320
Speaker 1: you know this last one being being in critical situations,

1485
01:20:57,400 --> 01:21:00,360
Speaker 1: you know, right before the half, making sure that you know, um,

1486
01:21:00,800 --> 01:21:03,240
Speaker 1: I get to snap cleanly and find a way to snap,

1487
01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:05,680
Speaker 1: you know, spike the ball, allow ourselves to kick a

1488
01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:08,639
Speaker 1: field goal there, or if it's a mindset or decision

1489
01:21:09,240 --> 01:21:10,920
Speaker 1: that we can change throughout the game and make sure

1490
01:21:10,920 --> 01:21:13,479
Speaker 1: that we're all on the same page. Um. But again,

1491
01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:15,400
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to have games like that where you

1492
01:21:15,680 --> 01:21:18,320
Speaker 1: do have mishaps in order to clean them up, you know.

1493
01:21:18,400 --> 01:21:19,880
Speaker 1: And we're just happy that it happened in week three

1494
01:21:19,920 --> 01:21:24,760
Speaker 1: and not you know, week seventeen. How do you kind

1495
01:21:24,760 --> 01:21:26,840
Speaker 1: of flip the script for the next few year. You

1496
01:21:26,920 --> 01:21:29,240
Speaker 1: gotta be ready for another time. That's why we played

1497
01:21:29,240 --> 01:21:31,120
Speaker 1: the game. Um, that's why we get, you know, paid

1498
01:21:31,479 --> 01:21:34,040
Speaker 1: to do what we do. And um, you know, trust

1499
01:21:34,120 --> 01:21:35,960
Speaker 1: in the leadership on this team and the guys in

1500
01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:38,439
Speaker 1: the locker room to go out there and handle their business.

1501
01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:42,559
Speaker 1: I guess. So Josh pretty much confirmed his hands fine,

1502
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:47,360
Speaker 1: not to worry, and uh, he said they are preparing

1503
01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:49,800
Speaker 1: in the event that it is a wet game. He

1504
01:21:49,880 --> 01:21:52,080
Speaker 1: said he's played in some rain games before. They played

1505
01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:54,520
Speaker 1: in a lot of them here at home last year. Yeah,

1506
01:21:54,720 --> 01:21:58,080
Speaker 1: they'll be prepared for that. I was incorrect. It is

1507
01:21:58,160 --> 01:22:01,880
Speaker 1: a grass surface in Baltimore, so I was reading up

1508
01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:04,439
Speaker 1: on it last night. It was originally grass. They changed

1509
01:22:04,479 --> 01:22:07,400
Speaker 1: the turf in two thousand and two, and then apparently

1510
01:22:07,560 --> 01:22:11,200
Speaker 1: they decided to change back to grass in twenty sixteen,

1511
01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:15,160
Speaker 1: so they are a grass surface, so mud could be.

1512
01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:18,640
Speaker 1: I mean, they'll have the thing covered until Sunday at

1513
01:22:18,720 --> 01:22:23,400
Speaker 1: like eleven. Yeah, they'll they'll uncover it. But when you

1514
01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:26,519
Speaker 1: cover those things up with the tarp, those tarps, they

1515
01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:28,840
Speaker 1: hold the moisture in the in the grass too. Because

1516
01:22:28,840 --> 01:22:31,160
Speaker 1: of the canniescape, it's wet underneath the tarp. I don't

1517
01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:32,880
Speaker 1: know what people I mean, I don't know why they

1518
01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:35,000
Speaker 1: cover it. I guess. I don't for what reading keeps

1519
01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:38,040
Speaker 1: people off of it, I guess, But the simple fact

1520
01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:39,960
Speaker 1: of the matters they take that turf, that tarp off.

1521
01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:43,519
Speaker 1: It's darp. It's not waterproof apparently. I don't know why.

1522
01:22:43,760 --> 01:22:46,080
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't it be waterproof? Isn't that the whole? The

1523
01:22:46,160 --> 01:22:49,840
Speaker 1: ground's wet underneath there? It always is. You pull that

1524
01:22:49,960 --> 01:22:51,920
Speaker 1: thing back, it's just as wet underneath it it is

1525
01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:54,920
Speaker 1: on top. Yeah, I don't know what. I don't I

1526
01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:58,120
Speaker 1: don't know how that doesn't do a better job. But

1527
01:22:58,240 --> 01:23:03,920
Speaker 1: you'll see, I mean, yeah, unless it unless you know,

1528
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:08,200
Speaker 1: it doesn't rain, or it rains early or waits till later,

1529
01:23:08,960 --> 01:23:11,880
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a wet game. Field's going to be cruddy.

1530
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:16,840
Speaker 1: Slick um. Yeah, so grass surface is what they're dealing with.

1531
01:23:17,600 --> 01:23:23,240
Speaker 1: And yeah, if it gets really sloppy, the advantage offense there, right,

1532
01:23:23,360 --> 01:23:27,479
Speaker 1: because the old adage is if it gets sloppy and

1533
01:23:27,520 --> 01:23:32,439
Speaker 1: the field conditions are inconsistent, the offense has the advantage

1534
01:23:32,479 --> 01:23:34,680
Speaker 1: because they know where they're going. The defense has to

1535
01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:36,559
Speaker 1: react to that, and all you need is one slip

1536
01:23:36,640 --> 01:23:40,360
Speaker 1: and the defense is always a quicker reaction kind of thing,

1537
01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:42,400
Speaker 1: and the offense can set up their steps so that

1538
01:23:42,520 --> 01:23:45,360
Speaker 1: they can make the cuts. Defense doesn't know where they're going,

1539
01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:50,040
Speaker 1: so they have to plant harder to react and if

1540
01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:52,160
Speaker 1: it if it comes out like that, yeah, some I've

1541
01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:54,599
Speaker 1: seen games like this turn into I've been a part

1542
01:23:54,640 --> 01:23:57,519
Speaker 1: of some games that turn into shootouts because the footing

1543
01:23:57,600 --> 01:23:59,400
Speaker 1: is a little is just the right level of bad.

1544
01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:04,479
Speaker 1: But if it's bad, it's bad. Hint, because it works.

1545
01:24:05,320 --> 01:24:07,439
Speaker 1: The ripple effects are you know, you kind of don't

1546
01:24:07,439 --> 01:24:09,200
Speaker 1: think about it. It's it's a ripple effect for the

1547
01:24:09,280 --> 01:24:13,080
Speaker 1: offensive line, for the defensive line, for the linebackers, for

1548
01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:16,160
Speaker 1: the running backs coming out, for the quarterback dropping back

1549
01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:19,040
Speaker 1: and then trying to gauge how bad the footing is

1550
01:24:19,160 --> 01:24:21,800
Speaker 1: for a guy that's twenty yards away, and how is

1551
01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:23,599
Speaker 1: he going to come out of his break? Is if

1552
01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:25,720
Speaker 1: I let this go and he slips a little bit,

1553
01:24:25,840 --> 01:24:28,240
Speaker 1: we're not gonna get there. So they hold it a heck,

1554
01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:31,000
Speaker 1: you know, a half second longer and they end up

1555
01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:35,240
Speaker 1: getting getting their head beat in by a defensive lineman

1556
01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:39,120
Speaker 1: who's got that extra time. So while the receiver might

1557
01:24:39,200 --> 01:24:41,559
Speaker 1: come open more, it takes him a little half second

1558
01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:44,760
Speaker 1: longer to get there, and there's no guarantee that that

1559
01:24:44,880 --> 01:24:47,000
Speaker 1: half second is going to be available to the quarterback

1560
01:24:47,080 --> 01:24:48,920
Speaker 1: to wait, and he's gonna have to wait because he

1561
01:24:48,960 --> 01:24:54,200
Speaker 1: doesn't know if that guy's coming out of his break sharp. So, yeah,

1562
01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:59,560
Speaker 1: the uncertainty of it is what squashes you. And you

1563
01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:03,719
Speaker 1: know there's always uncertainty under in those conditions on a field,

1564
01:25:03,840 --> 01:25:08,360
Speaker 1: So right, and a grind it out game, you know

1565
01:25:08,400 --> 01:25:11,080
Speaker 1: if it comes yeah, people, you know, people are reminding

1566
01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:13,439
Speaker 1: us today. You know our running game is not our forte.

1567
01:25:13,520 --> 01:25:14,800
Speaker 1: It's going to be hard to grind it out. You

1568
01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:17,000
Speaker 1: don't have a grounded out offense. You got to throw

1569
01:25:17,080 --> 01:25:20,040
Speaker 1: it offense. There is a way to use a short

1570
01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:22,200
Speaker 1: passing game to double as a running game. We saw

1571
01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:25,240
Speaker 1: something last week against the offense. I mean he was

1572
01:25:25,320 --> 01:25:28,000
Speaker 1: checking it down to Motor early in that game to

1573
01:25:28,680 --> 01:25:31,679
Speaker 1: beat some of the pressure packages that Miami threw at

1574
01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:34,519
Speaker 1: Josh and the passing game, and it worked pretty well.

1575
01:25:34,840 --> 01:25:36,880
Speaker 1: I mean it wound up. They even blitzed down at

1576
01:25:36,880 --> 01:25:39,600
Speaker 1: the goal line and Josh threw it right over the

1577
01:25:39,680 --> 01:25:42,559
Speaker 1: blitzer to Motor for the first touchdown of the game.

1578
01:25:43,240 --> 01:25:47,679
Speaker 1: So it's not like Josh is incapable of beating the blitz.

1579
01:25:47,800 --> 01:25:49,880
Speaker 1: He's done in an untold number of times over the

1580
01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:55,960
Speaker 1: last few years. So what is Baltimore's approach. I mean,

1581
01:25:56,560 --> 01:25:59,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's quite as aggressive as my

1582
01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:03,519
Speaker 1: Ammy is, but getting pressure has been an issue for them,

1583
01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:05,760
Speaker 1: so they've had to send extra people when they want

1584
01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:10,920
Speaker 1: to send pressure because Justin Houston's dealing with a groin injury.

1585
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:14,240
Speaker 1: He's trying to play through it but has been relatively ineffective.

1586
01:26:14,720 --> 01:26:18,280
Speaker 1: And Oda faway, their former first round pick from twenty

1587
01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:20,519
Speaker 1: twenty one, who came off the board even before. Gregor

1588
01:26:20,600 --> 01:26:24,519
Speaker 1: Rousseau has had trouble getting home too. He's really lighting

1589
01:26:24,600 --> 01:26:27,760
Speaker 1: the pants. That was the knock on o way coming

1590
01:26:27,800 --> 01:26:31,400
Speaker 1: out of Penn State that he does he have the

1591
01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:35,200
Speaker 1: bulk to help you set the edge in the run game,

1592
01:26:35,280 --> 01:26:37,559
Speaker 1: and can he win with more than just pure speed

1593
01:26:37,640 --> 01:26:40,280
Speaker 1: off the edge as a pass rusher. I think the

1594
01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:44,040
Speaker 1: jury is still out on that, but it's part of

1595
01:26:44,080 --> 01:26:46,320
Speaker 1: the reason they signed Jason Pierre Paul as a street

1596
01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:49,160
Speaker 1: free agent this past week, and there's a good chance

1597
01:26:49,720 --> 01:26:52,400
Speaker 1: that we see JPP on the field this weekend. Right. See,

1598
01:26:52,400 --> 01:26:55,160
Speaker 1: always a little bit like the Bills guys, except he's

1599
01:26:55,160 --> 01:26:58,200
Speaker 1: listened antside linebacker. He's like, he's like aj Panessa and

1600
01:26:58,280 --> 01:27:01,280
Speaker 1: Greg Rousseau. He's six five two seven, he's right in there,

1601
01:27:01,360 --> 01:27:04,040
Speaker 1: you know so, And I think that's generous looking at him. Right,

1602
01:27:04,120 --> 01:27:06,680
Speaker 1: So that's the kind of guy, isn't now that you

1603
01:27:06,760 --> 01:27:09,280
Speaker 1: know those guys can play, because we've got two of

1604
01:27:09,320 --> 01:27:11,040
Speaker 1: them on our team or three of them on our team.

1605
01:27:11,120 --> 01:27:13,240
Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting to see what Oway does. But

1606
01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:15,880
Speaker 1: obviously they you know, they want to get him some

1607
01:27:15,960 --> 01:27:19,240
Speaker 1: help anyway. So maybe in a grinded out game, a

1608
01:27:19,320 --> 01:27:21,320
Speaker 1: guy like Oway has trouble standing up. I don't know.

1609
01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:24,280
Speaker 1: I doubt that an outside linebacker in a three to

1610
01:27:24,360 --> 01:27:26,840
Speaker 1: four is not very good at setting the edge. I

1611
01:27:26,880 --> 01:27:29,280
Speaker 1: imagine he's pretty good at it. Yeah, we'll take a

1612
01:27:29,320 --> 01:27:31,519
Speaker 1: break here. When we come back, Steve and I with

1613
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:34,799
Speaker 1: some final thoughts. Next here on One Bill's Live, presented

1614
01:27:34,840 --> 01:27:52,280
Speaker 1: by Collot of Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. Welcome back

1615
01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:54,719
Speaker 1: to One Bills Live. Just to bring up to speed,

1616
01:27:55,280 --> 01:27:58,400
Speaker 1: we mentioned it earlier on the show. Dane Jackson back

1617
01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:00,519
Speaker 1: out at practice today on a limited basis, had a

1618
01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:02,800
Speaker 1: red non contact jersey on, but just good to see

1619
01:28:02,840 --> 01:28:06,639
Speaker 1: him out there. He has since addressed the media since

1620
01:28:06,720 --> 01:28:09,880
Speaker 1: practice ended, and he was asked, you know about the

1621
01:28:09,960 --> 01:28:12,960
Speaker 1: neck injury, and he said, after all the tests that

1622
01:28:13,080 --> 01:28:17,200
Speaker 1: were done, he was really just sore from getting his

1623
01:28:17,600 --> 01:28:20,320
Speaker 1: neck bent back. Very awkward that you think, he said,

1624
01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:24,000
Speaker 1: but it was nothing more than that. And he said

1625
01:28:24,040 --> 01:28:26,640
Speaker 1: he has watched the hit and the play from the

1626
01:28:26,720 --> 01:28:28,760
Speaker 1: Tennessee game. He said it makes his back hurt when

1627
01:28:28,760 --> 01:28:31,720
Speaker 1: he watches it. But it was great to see him

1628
01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:34,240
Speaker 1: back out there are practice. He's smiling, you know, he's

1629
01:28:34,280 --> 01:28:37,479
Speaker 1: back with his teammates and Steve. If he comes through

1630
01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:41,080
Speaker 1: this week, well he may play on Sunday, which I

1631
01:28:41,160 --> 01:28:43,839
Speaker 1: think two weeks ago people might have thought that's crazy.

1632
01:28:44,160 --> 01:28:47,680
Speaker 1: That's why that's why it's such You just don't know.

1633
01:28:47,880 --> 01:28:50,519
Speaker 1: The game is such a game, the physicality of the

1634
01:28:50,640 --> 01:28:52,640
Speaker 1: game when you see it, Like the Micah Hyde hit

1635
01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:58,000
Speaker 1: looked totally innocuous. He's out for the season. The Dane

1636
01:28:58,080 --> 01:29:03,000
Speaker 1: Jackson hit looked catastrophic. He's back after a week. It's amazing.

1637
01:29:03,280 --> 01:29:05,960
Speaker 1: You just never know how that goes. You got guys

1638
01:29:06,040 --> 01:29:09,599
Speaker 1: running down the field untouched and snapping their acls. Then

1639
01:29:09,640 --> 01:29:11,559
Speaker 1: you got other guys that looked like they get tossed

1640
01:29:11,560 --> 01:29:13,760
Speaker 1: into a tree grinder and spit out the other side,

1641
01:29:13,800 --> 01:29:16,519
Speaker 1: and they walk away like they tied their shoe. There's nothing. Yeah,

1642
01:29:16,760 --> 01:29:19,240
Speaker 1: it's unbelievable. There's no rhyme or reason. There isn't and

1643
01:29:19,320 --> 01:29:21,479
Speaker 1: that's why it's it's such a wild card in the

1644
01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:23,880
Speaker 1: end the season. And that's why the Bills over this

1645
01:29:24,040 --> 01:29:27,960
Speaker 1: last week it's like what you know, the roster is

1646
01:29:27,960 --> 01:29:30,600
Speaker 1: like unrecognizable. But if Dane can play, that would be

1647
01:29:30,880 --> 01:29:34,280
Speaker 1: huge for their secondary depth. We saw Jordan Poyer out

1648
01:29:34,320 --> 01:29:36,720
Speaker 1: there as well. That's good news. Hopefully this team's on

1649
01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:38,559
Speaker 1: the end. We'll see you tomorrow at one
