00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 3: where people give us their you know, their rest and.

159
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:41,840

160
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,319
Speaker 3: Men your ideas, man oh man. And it's a it's

161
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 3: a run up of like three days for something.

162
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,319
Speaker 2: People are playing for that now. Yeah, for Monday night.

163
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 2: So kidding me because it looks there there a Monday

164
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 2: night game is an it's an added time investment. Yeah,

165
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 2: because even if you even if you're working on Monday,

166
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 2: you gotta people are cutting out early. You know that's happening.

167
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 2: And then there are some people that just say the

168
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 2: heck with Monday. We're not even we're a small business

169
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 2: owner in Buffalo, you really do.

170
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 3: You always have the conversation about whether you're going to

171
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 3: stay open on Monday on a on.

172
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:13,199
Speaker 2: A Bill's game.

173
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 3: Well, if you're not, if you're not a home game,

174
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 3: and I particularly for the home games like this one, yes,

175
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 3: like you know, what what are we doing here? So

176
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 3: everybody's gonna Monday sick.

177
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 2: Any Monday could very easily become an all day food day.

178
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's at least right. It could be

179
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 2: a two meal tailgate, not a one meal tailgate, lunch

180
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 2: and dinner. That's right, that's right.

181
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 3: And so for me, even if you're gonna run up

182
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 3: and do one of those, you know, and.

183
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 2: If you're doing that, please let Steve and I know,

184
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 2: because we'd be more than happy to stop by before

185
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 2: the show and grab lunch with you and then go

186
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 2: do the show.

187
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 3: That's right, we'll stop by you come out and do

188
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 3: it in our parking lot. But even if you're doing

189
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 3: one of those, one of those is gonna be the

190
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 3: you know, the dry you got the dry rub ribs

191
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 3: that you've been smoking for three days, and you've got this,

192
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 3: you know, the marinated blah blah.

193
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 2: Blah, on and on and on on. Yeah.

194
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 3: But then for the other meals, like hey, Wegmans in

195
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 3: a box, let's go and that that's like post game.

196
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 2: Wait, you're waiting to get and I know this.

197
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 3: People go in, they do all the pre game stuff

198
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 3: and they do the whole tailgate with the smoke stuff

199
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 3: and that then after the game they they do it

200
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 3: again because they're just waiting for traffic and they got

201
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 3: nothing to do, you know, so let's just uh, let's

202
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 3: throw the box now this Monday night game, I mean,

203
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 3: you'd be grilling at like midnight, so it's a different animal.

204
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 3: But for most of the one o'clock games, it's like, oh, yeah,

205
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 3: you can do postgame post game dinner. Yeah, that's not

206
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 3: this week. Instead, you do lunch and dinner before the game.

207
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 3: That's the way to go.

208
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 2: And incidentally, this week's game against the Jaguars is presented

209
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 2: by none other than Wegmans, the official tailgate headquarters of

210
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills. Amb seamless that work. I was absolutely

211
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:49,199
Speaker 2: seem I.

212
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 3: Was misinformed too, because I saw somewhere that the Bills

213
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 3: game kicks off seven fifteen on Monday night.

214
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 2: That's what they said. That is not that's what they

215
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 2: said on the network.

216
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 3: On the NFL Jesus website says seven seven and then

217
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 3: their coverage probably start and then probably and then the

218
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 3: Commanders Bengals is eight to fifteen PM, So the Bills

219
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 3: game will be a quarter in the books before the

220
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 3: Bengals and what Commanders game kicks off, which is what

221
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,959
Speaker 3: any any thoughts on the Monday night double header.

222
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't it doesn't really impact us because

223
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,319
Speaker 2: we're working. I know I would say if I was

224
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 2: home and able to watch the Monday night game. I

225
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,479
Speaker 2: don't know how I feel about double headers. I feel conflicted,

226
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 2: like I want to, I want to. I would rather

227
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 2: have a standalone Monday night game because then I can

228
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 2: watch that front to back. I'm not a red zone

229
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 2: channel guy. I'm not a flip around guy. I pick

230
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 2: a game and unless it like on Sunday, I pick

231
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 2: a game, and unless it's absolute stinko.

232
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 3: I'm sticking with it. Listen, you're a jump around guy,

233
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 3: all right, Well no you don't. You get on that

234
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 3: red zone and you don't have to jump around.

235
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 2: Oh it's like football.

236
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 3: I mean, if there's if there's a guy, if there,

237
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 3: if there's a guy that's down, just gonna get up

238
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 3: and walk off. And there's a hesitation in one game

239
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 3: there at another game saying hey we're about we're on

240
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 3: a third and three, here we go, and they just

241
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 3: flip it over there.

242
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 2: It's like, no, it's seamless. It's I have found it's

243
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 2: like God.

244
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 3: Almighty has the remote and he just says, no, no,

245
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 3: you need to watch this.

246
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 2: It is unbelievable. It is unbelievable. I'm just telling you.

247
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,199
Speaker 2: I have found, just in talking to people about Red

248
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 2: Zone Channel, the people that like Red Zone Channel the

249
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 2: most are fantasy football players because they are instantaneously being

250
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 2: brought up to speed on who is about to score

251
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 2: and is that guy on my team? That is right,

252
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 2: they love Red Zone Channel. And I get it if

253
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 2: all you care about is your fantasy football and also too,

254
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 2: and what you're gonna care and our our guy director

255
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 2: Jeff Colden, I chimes and he says, you know what,

256
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 2: they got this on YouTube TV.

257
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 3: You can go both games at once and you can

258
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,199
Speaker 3: side by side it. And I've never tried that.

259
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 2: That's one thing.

260
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 3: I have the old school picture and picture I'm I'm

261
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 3: I used.

262
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 2: To have that.

263
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 3: This is not picture and picture. This is double screen.

264
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 3: So I've got the and I also and I'll admit

265
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 3: to having this little set up in my house. I've

266
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 3: got a Hey, the people, why we even I've got

267
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 3: a one of the projector TVs like where it's like

268
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 3: it's back in the back of the room in the

269
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 3: ceiling and it goes down on the so you go

270
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 3: picture and picture. I've got side by side sixty inch

271
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 3: TVs because the things one hundred and twenty inches in

272
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 3: my basement. So I've never tried that, but as I'm

273
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 3: sitting here explaining it to you, I'm thinking I need

274
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 3: to stop everything and doing and try it, and you know,

275
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 3: like not even go to the game.

276
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 2: I think I want to give that a whirl.

277
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 3: So that's the side by side thing is is possible

278
00:13:54,559 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 3: on YouTube TV, lady. We almost people are walking by

279
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 3: wave net is forgetting that they're walking in a moving

280
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 3: park where they're parking. Somebody's gonna get whacked.

281
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 2: Almost became a hood ornament by the SUV. So be

282
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 2: careful out here people.

283
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that this, I think that's really uh, this

284
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 3: double header Monday night thing is.

285
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 2: I don't know.

286
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 3: I'm okay with it because if one game gets to

287
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 3: be you know, disastrous, you can watch the other. But yeah,

288
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 3: I'm as a if you're a fan of the Bills

289
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 3: or you're a fan of jack the Jackson Jaguars, you're

290
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 3: not interested in the Commanders Bengals game. I mean, Bills

291
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 3: fans might have a side interest in the Bengals game

292
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 3: because it's AFC, and they're kind of a they're kind

293
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 3: of a there's somebody I know, somebody you know, but

294
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 3: that you know the rest of them. I'm not watching

295
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 3: that other game. I'm not even flipping over to it.

296
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I really don't. It's not a terribly compelling game

297
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: for right, commanders, don't move the needle.

298
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 3: It's an out of conference game too for the band.

299
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 3: I mean, it's like it couldn't be less. You know,

300
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 3: it's two fourth place teams from a year ago.

301
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 2: Right, and it's a gimmea game for the Bengals. It's

302
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:18,359
Speaker 2: a you can think Bengals.

303
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 3: You would think, But I don't know if that's the case.

304
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 2: I think it will be. We'll get into some of

305
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 2: their injuries in a second here. Yeah, so that that

306
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 2: will bear watching. But let's uh, let's just bring up

307
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 2: to speed first of all, on Bill's news and notes.

308
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 2: Bill's players, as we know, on Tuesday, have the day off.

309
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 2: They will return to practice tomorrow, and that is when

310
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 2: head coach Sean McDermott will hopefully provide an update on

311
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 2: Terrell Bernard's prognosis with his pectoral injury. He did say

312
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 2: that it will be a multiple week injury, but we

313
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 2: don't know if IR is an option. We don't know

314
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 2: if surgery is something he's gonna have to undergo. Although

315
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 2: there are reports out there that he only strained his peck,

316
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 2: he did not tear his peck. If he tore it,

317
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 2: that will require surgery. If it's just strained, it's like

318
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 2: a pulled muscle, it'll be a you know, a.

319
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 3: Maximum probably of three weeks from the time it was injured.

320
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 2: Yes, and we'll see if there's an update on Taron

321
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 2: Johnson as well, So we'll wait to hear from Sean

322
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 2: McDermott tomorrow for updates on that. But as we go

323
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 2: around the NFL, we are presented by Kaleida Health, the

324
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 2: official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills, and we begin

325
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 2: with Monday night football. Steve I watch her Cousins Leeds

326
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 2: a game winning drive for the Falcons as they beat

327
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 2: the Philadelphia Eagles at the Link twenty two to twenty one.

328
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 2: Cousins with the game winning touchdown pass to Drake London

329
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 2: with thirty four seconds remaining. As the Eagles, by most accounts,

330
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 2: gave one.

331
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 3: Away, they did they missed a swing pass to Saquants.

332
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 3: It bowling through Saquon's hands that would have given the

333
00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 3: Eagles a chance to ice.

334
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 2: The game by kneeling down.

335
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 3: Atlanta's out of timeouts completely and the ball goes through

336
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 3: Saquan's hands. The Falcons get it back with I don't know,

337
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 3: I can't remember how much time was left, not much,

338
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 3: and Kirk Cousins in six plays in less than two minutes,

339
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 3: goes the length of the field and hits a touchdown

340
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 3: pass and the and the Eagles looked like they were

341
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 3: the practice that they were, you know, the look team

342
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 3: in practice. They totally gave up a couple of monster

343
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 3: receptions on deep outs where the guy got to the sideline,

344
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 3: got out of bound, stopped the clock.

345
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 2: All of that.

346
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 3: It could not have gone worse for the Philadelphia Eagles

347
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 3: at the end. And it ends up with a pass

348
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,159
Speaker 3: to the flat route with thirty four seconds left, and

349
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 3: then you think, okay, thirty four seconds with a couple

350
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 3: of timeouts. Jalen Hurtz comes on the field and say, okay,

351
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,119
Speaker 3: all the Eagles need is a field goal to win it.

352
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 2: That's it.

353
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 3: And they, you know, they get the ball on the

354
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 3: thirty yep, so it's literally twenty five yards in thirty

355
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 3: four seconds with two timeouts. They got a shot at

356
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 3: that two plays in they throw interception. Games over and

357
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 3: they looked horrible at the end of that game. It

358
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 3: was a snooze fest up until the last two minutes.

359
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like, that's why, well, I bail fifteen

360
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 2: to ten game I bailed. I'm like, my sleep is

361
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 2: too important.

362
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 3: Yehs fifteen to ten, and they, you know, so then

363
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 3: Atlanta finally gets a touchdown, takes the lead, Philly goes down,

364
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 3: gets a touchdown, and then they leave, you know, a

365
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 3: couple of minutes on the flock, and then Atlanta answers

366
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 3: them all that in the last five minutes of this game.

367
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 3: That was a snooze fest up until that point. And

368
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 3: absolutely Philadelphia is puking in their sea sink today about

369
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 3: losing that game.

370
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 2: As my kids would say, womp womp, wamp wamp. Rice.

371
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,439
Speaker 3: They had that game and they were a Saquon Arkley

372
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 3: reception reception away, a makeablept wasn't a perfect pass, but

373
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 3: it was like, oh, my goodness, only had to do

374
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 3: is pull it in and it was game over and

375
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 3: they couldn't do it. And that's that's how and that's

376
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 3: why I mean, Eagles fans are beside themselves. But that's

377
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 3: why this game is so compelling.

378
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 4: Man, you got a guy that is like the focal

379
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 4: point of your offense as it nobody else you want

380
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 4: even having a shot at that pass and it and

381
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 4: it goes through his hands and that's you know, and

382
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 4: you end up losing after another six or seven plays.

383
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 2: You can't stop it. Yep. AFC East News Patriots linebacker

384
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 2: Juwan Bentley, the team's leading Tackley last year, after further examination,

385
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 2: did in fact tear his pectoral muscle, and the injury

386
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 2: is bad enough where it is going to cost him

387
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 2: the rest of the twenty twenty four season. That will

388
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 2: leave a big hole in the Patriots defense the rest

389
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,680
Speaker 2: of the way. He's got three consecutive one underd Tach seasons.

390
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,679
Speaker 2: We'll talk to Boston Globes Ben Volin for more on

391
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 2: that injury a little bit later on in the show.

392
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 2: But that is that is a loss in the middle

393
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 2: of their defense. And they're not unlike what the Bills

394
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 2: are experiencing with Torrell Bernard. But hopefully Bernard's injury not

395
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 2: as serious as.

396
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 3: Bentley's and and it's their defense is for real in

397
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 3: New England. You can say what you want about their

398
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 3: an ability to win games.

399
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,679
Speaker 2: I like what I saw from that. We'll watch them

400
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 2: Thursday night when they play the Jets.

401
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 3: You know they're two to zero and their defense is

402
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 3: really the re is the engine. But you lose Juwan

403
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 3: Bentley and that's gonna hurt well, I mean the Bills.

404
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 3: Now the Bills have we say that and we're sitting

405
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 3: here with the team that's lost everybody and as well, right,

406
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 3: so I want to maybe the Patriots can do that

407
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:45,120
Speaker 3: as well.

408
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 2: Let me I want to quick check their depth chart

409
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 2: to see who it is that they have behind Bentley

410
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,360
Speaker 2: on their roster, like who's going to plug in for him?

411
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 2: And they've got ray Kwan millan who's probably gonna be

412
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 2: that guy? Yeah, it's probably ray Quond McMillan. You can

413
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 2: do a lot worse than Rayquon McMillan. So that's not horrible.

414
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,200
Speaker 2: But he's I don't know if he's quite the same

415
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 2: playmaker that Joan Bentley is, which is why he's had.

416
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 3: One hundred plus tackles the last couple of years.

417
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 2: Each of the last three years, I think he's led

418
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 2: them in tackles each of the last three years.

419
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 5: Ye.

420
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,120
Speaker 2: So yeah, that's a ah man, that's a tough one. Uh.

421
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 2: Speaking of that Thursday night game between the Patriots and

422
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 2: the Jets, the Jets have their own share of injuries.

423
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 2: They already lost your main jobs into a ruptured achilles,

424
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 2: their best pass rusher as long as Redick remains a holdout.

425
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 2: DJ Reid did not play in last week's game. They're

426
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,360
Speaker 2: starting corner opposite Sauce Gardner and CJ. Mosley got hurt

427
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 2: in the game against the Titans on Sunday, so head

428
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 2: coach Robert Sala with an injury update today for the

429
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 2: New York Media, said Mosley and Reed are progressing well,

430
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,640
Speaker 2: but they are fifty to fifty and perhaps game time

431
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,439
Speaker 2: decisions for Thursday night. It's a short week, you know.

432
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 2: Me And while nickel corner Michael Carter, he says is

433
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 2: fine but still has a nagging ankle injury. It sounds

434
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 2: like it's gonna be something he can play with. But

435
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 2: these short weeks, once you get further and further into

436
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 2: the season, it's tough to get your guys back in

437
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 2: time to play. Yeah.

438
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it you know, we sit around and we

439
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 3: think all this stuff takes forever for the game to start.

440
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 3: It takes forever for the season started, and then once

441
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 3: the season starts, man, it's tumbling downhill. It just keeps

442
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 3: rolling and it's hard to keep up with it. That's yeah, guys,

443
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 3: the bodies are still on the timeframe of it takes

444
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 3: so long to heal, and the league doesn't wait. I mean,

445
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 3: the time just seems to slip by so fast for

446
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,160
Speaker 3: these guys on the injured list. They can't get they

447
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 3: can't get healthy any faster than they can get healthy.

448
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 3: I mean, we all know how long it takes for,

449
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 3: you know, for the body to heal, and they've got

450
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 3: I mean, millions have been spent on sports science trying

451
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 3: to get these guys ready faster than they're then more

452
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 3: and they can't do it, can't do it, and that's

453
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 3: a crusher.

454
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 2: One last bit of AFC East News head coach Mike

455
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,440
Speaker 2: McDaniel down in Miami says there is not enough information

456
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 2: yet to determine whether Tua Tonga Biloa will or will

457
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 2: not go on injured reserve with his concussion. McDaniel says

458
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 2: they hope to know more in the coming days and

459
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 2: we'll let Tua speak on his career. Tua is busy

460
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,919
Speaker 2: seeing outside specialists right now, so this may take some time.

461
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 2: I mean, obviously he's not going to play this coming week.

462
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 2: So it'll be Skyler Thompson at quarterback for the Dolphins

463
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 2: this week. And I did not check to see who

464
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 2: they are playing. Let me take a look at the

465
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 2: schedule really quickly. Finns Week three loading loading. Our internet

466
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 2: service is not lightning quick out here. So they have

467
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 2: Seattle this week. That is not an easy game. Seahawks

468
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 2: are two to zero under new head coach Mike McDonald.

469
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,479
Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel versus Mike McDonald. How tough is it going

470
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 2: to be for the television broadcasters to keep that straight?

471
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 2: That's gonna be. Yeah, I was calling the two Max

472
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 2: and be done with it, or the two mics as

473
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 2: it were, Mike Mack and Mike Mack.

474
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's gonna be Dolphins at one on one, Dolphins

475
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 3: at long.

476
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 2: Roady's Bill's got to make that trip later this season.

477
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 3: That is the long Is that the longest road trip

478
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 3: in the in the league?

479
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 2: I think it is.

480
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 3: I think it is Miami to Seattle is the longest.

481
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 3: One is further than New York, the New England to

482
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 3: l A.

483
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a hall. That is a hall for sure.

484
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 2: So those are your AFC East news and notes. Uh

485
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 2: NFL Tuesday Power rankings are up Steve on NFL dot

486
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,400
Speaker 2: com and ESPN dot com and NFL dot com has

487
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 2: the Bills fourth behind Kansas City, San Francisco, and Houston.

488
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 2: I've got no problem with the last two Super Bowl

489
00:24:55,720 --> 00:25:00,159
Speaker 2: winners or Super Bowl participants, San Francisco and KNA the

490
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 2: City being ahead of the Bills here, even though San

491
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 2: Francisco lost to Minnesota and Sam Darnold in Week two

492
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 2: and they're one and one on the season. But Houston

493
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 2: is the national media still this much in love with

494
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 2: the Texans. I mean, they struggled against Chicago last week.

495
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 2: Well they won nineteen thirteen. Yeah, well, yeah, I got

496
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 2: a little bit of it. And I'm with you taking

497
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 2: a little umbradge with that. I'm not.

498
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 3: I have a hard time getting outraged by people's opinions

499
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 3: about professional football. That's fair because we get opinions on

500
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 3: our show, even though very widely about one team, let

501
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,160
Speaker 3: alone teams that can follow.

502
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 2: That's fair.

503
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 3: That's a fair And I'll say this to that game.

504
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 3: You see these teams playing. When you see a tight game,

505
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 3: you tend to elevate how good those teams are. Okay,

506
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 3: I think I think Chicago's defense is real and I

507
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 3: think it's tough for a team.

508
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 2: I guess, hey man's Steve Christian, Steve Christie and all

509
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 2: time leading scorer.

510
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and just hanging out at Wegmans.

511
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,400
Speaker 2: They got some shopping to do. What was I talking

512
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 2: Probably picking up a that's right, tailgate pack for all

513
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 2: we know, they're getting ready for Monday night. That's right,

514
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 2: that's right. You were talking about league power rankings.

515
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think we're always a prisoner of the moment.

516
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 3: Plus we all know too. One week, your team can

517
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,719
Speaker 3: play lights out. The Bills did it in Miami. They

518
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 3: played fantastic with backup players. You know, who knows what's

519
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 3: going to happen against the Jaguars, a team who's had

520
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,919
Speaker 3: their number they made. You know, you can always come

521
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 3: out and look, you know, like dogs. Yeah. So it

522
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 3: is a very wide ranging opinion that you can have

523
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 3: and teams play good one week and bad the next.

524
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 3: Who knows what what makes that happen. I've been a

525
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,919
Speaker 3: part of it. We've seen it multiple times every season

526
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 3: and sometimes multiple times every week. Think about the way

527
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 3: we thought about the Bills watching all these teams over

528
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 3: this last week, and we talked about it yesterday.

529
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 2: Feel pretty good.

530
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 3: Some of these teams were great in week one and

531
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 3: stunk in week two, and vice versa. They stunk in

532
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 3: week two and were great in week one, and you

533
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 3: felt like, hey, the Bills looked pretty good in both

534
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 3: week both weeks. Outside the first half of the Arizona game,

535
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,679
Speaker 3: they kind of got it together, so you kind of

536
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 3: feel like you're there. But that come on, Yeah, if

537
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:27,919
Speaker 3: you come out and played like you did in the

538
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,680
Speaker 3: first half against Arizona, all of a sudden, now you're

539
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 3: twenty two in the power rankings and you're the same guys.

540
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 2: ESPN dot Com had the Bill second, behind only the Chiefs,

541
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 2: so they had a little bit of higher ranking. They

542
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 2: had moved up ten eight spots from last week. They

543
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 2: were Bill last week. Now they're two.

544
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 3: The Bills have yeah, the Bills have had, you know.

545
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 2: Take it with a grain of salt.

546
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 3: Peak but I'll say this too. You and I are

547
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 3: sitting here and I'm fine picked the Bills twenty second.

548
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 2: You know, I don't care.

549
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:01,640
Speaker 3: We're fine, sitting, We're fine because they've they haven't they

550
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 3: have now, maybe it's never going to show up, but man, Oman,

551
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 3: it feels like they've got all kinds of untapped offensive

552
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 3: power that they haven't even asked of.

553
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:15,360
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Uh. Cincinnati Bengals, who lost defensive tackle defensive

554
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 2: tackles Bj Hill and Sheldon Rankins both to hamstring injuries

555
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,679
Speaker 2: against the Chiefs last week, doesn't look good for them

556
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,919
Speaker 2: to be ready on Monday night when they play the

557
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 2: Commanders as part of the Monday night doubleheader that Steve mentioned,

558
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,639
Speaker 2: which also includes Bill's Jaguars. NFL Networks Tom Pellisaro is

559
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 2: reporting that the Bengals today are working out multiple veteran

560
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 2: defensive linemen, including Lawrence Guy and Albert Huggins. Meanwhile, San

561
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 2: Francisco is going to be without Deebo Samuel the next

562
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 2: couple of weeks that, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan,

563
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 2: because of a strained calf muscle that he suffered in

564
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 2: the loss at Minnesota. Deebo's always good to miss three

565
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 2: or four games every year. Kareem Hunt, meanwhile, is working

566
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 2: out for the Chiefs today because, as we told you yesterday,

567
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 2: Isaiah Pacheco, there starting running back, is going to miss

568
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 2: a few weeks with a cracked fibula and may even

569
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 2: go on IR and undergo surgery. They're also without Clyde Edwards.

570
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 2: A Laire who is still on the roster but is

571
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 2: on the non football injury list is dealing with PTSD

572
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 2: symptoms after being in a robbery attempt. I believe I

573
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,240
Speaker 2: remember correctly, So our best wish is to Clyde Edwards

574
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 2: a layer that is not an easy thing to deal with.

575
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 2: So that is around the NFL presented by Colida Health.

00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 2: and they say to us, how much time do you have?

622
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 2: Do you want to eat now? And I said, We've

623
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 2: got five minutes, and they go, so do you want

624
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 2: to eat? I said, Steve is polished off burritos in

625
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 2: four minutes. A burger is going to be child's play.

626
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 2: So what's left of Steve's plate, half a pickle and

627
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 2: chips are left. The burger got destroyed, Mine's half eaten,

628
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 2: and I'm a fast eater, so we're gonna I have

629
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 2: not in Steve's league is basically my point.

630
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 3: Our plan is to take some calls, so and we're

631
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 3: gonna try and take some calls. So and then we're

632
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 3: gonna take a minute, but you gotta bear with us,

633
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 3: and we take we're on location, so it's going to

634
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 3: be like an extra delay when we get well it's.

635
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 2: Us hearing them, that'll be delay, I think. But top

636
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 2: of a discussion today concerns the up and comers on

637
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 2: Buffalo's roster. Which young Bill's player who has yet to

638
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 2: maybe make his mark in this league do you believe

639
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 2: is destined for stardom? Eight oh three oh five point

640
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 2: fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two, five point

641
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 2: fifty that is the number to get on board? And

642
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,479
Speaker 2: are we okay to go to phones? Jay, We are

643
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 2: not okay. So we're gonna have to wait on that

644
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 2: because we had a connectivity issue out here. So hopefully

645
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 2: that will get rectified here in short order and we

646
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 2: can get your thoughts on that subject concerning you know,

647
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 2: young Bill's players who have stepped up, and we've already

648
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 2: seen some step up here in the first two weeks.

649
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 2: Because what Cam lewis well, I don't even know if

650
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 2: we can consider Cam Lewis a young players.

651
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 3: In his fifteen seven game younger. Yeah, he's been around

652
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 3: the building, but he's only had that was his seventh game.

653
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 2: No, it wasn't. That was JaMarcus Ingram's.

654
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 3: Oh I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Cam Lewis has played on specials.

655
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 3: He's been around forever. So yeah, that's a legitimate that's

656
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 3: a legitimate you know, gripe if you if you're really

657
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 3: that much into work, I.

658
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 2: Don't know if you call me a young player, but

659
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 2: he's not a household name player, but he could be. Now,

660
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 2: guys had a major role in the effort. In week one,

661
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 2: had nine tackles, second on the team in tackles. Last

662
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 2: week had another six tackles and really has played fantastic

663
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 2: in the absence of Tarren Johnson as they really haven't

664
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 2: missed a beat from that position. So I think he's

665
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 2: a name you could certainly submit for consideration. You could

666
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 2: have even you want to even talk about JaMarcus Ingram

667
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 2: if you're really encouraged by the way he has played.

668
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 2: You know another guy who has very quietly been playing

669
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 2: lights out football through the first two weeks. Young player

670
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,280
Speaker 2: on this roster that I think is destined for starting.

671
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 2: How's Christian Benfred grab you? Yeah? Yeah, he's right. Yeah,

672
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 2: I'll say this though it's hard. He's shutting people down

673
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 2: at that.

674
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 3: But it's hard to be, you know, a guy. Hi,

675
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 3: it's hard to be that guy if you know you've

676
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 3: already been a starter. And he's been a starter now

677
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,839
Speaker 3: for two years. So I'm I'm thinking Christian Benford has

678
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 3: already made a name for himself, so he's already I

679
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 3: don't know if.

680
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 2: He's a star.

681
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,879
Speaker 3: Well, he's just starting corner in the NFL, so I'm

682
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 3: I'm thinking he's already got but he is. He is

683
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,399
Speaker 3: kind of young in his career, but it's his third year,

684
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 3: so I'm no, I'm taking him off. You're not allowed

685
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 3: to vote for Christian Benford. He's a starter, he's a

686
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 3: young I'm sorry.

687
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 2: You let us know which young Bills player who has

688
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 2: yet to make his mark in this league you believe

689
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,359
Speaker 2: is destined for starting based on how these first two games,

690
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 2: I say one, I'll give you one. Well, why don't

691
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 2: we get one? Torrance Osiris, Torrance O.

692
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 3: The Bills offensive line is shot, and yeah, they they

693
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 3: have been really good offense.

694
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:40,799
Speaker 2: They've been really good in the run game.

695
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 3: Uh, they've been good in the passing game, and this

696
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 3: offense is playing. So the words you're getting out on

697
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 3: all the analysts and stuff that you know, Brownie and

698
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 3: I follow these guys online and we we we listen

699
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 3: to their film clips and we listen and talk and

700
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 3: cross reference about everything they say about our team. You know,

701
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 3: so that the word has it on the Bills offense

702
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:07,399
Speaker 3: is it is really if it's high efficiency, like off

703
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 3: the charts efficient, like their heart, like I told you

704
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 3: they were gonna be. I told you they were gonna

705
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 3: be hard to get off the field and unless they

706
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 3: help you, you can't get them off the field.

707
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:19,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, And believe it or not, they haven't even been

708
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 2: that good on third down. They're three they're like thirty

709
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 2: three conversion through the first two games on third downs,

710
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,720
Speaker 2: which is which is not where they were. Your imagine

711
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,240
Speaker 2: if they get that too, if they.

712
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 3: Get back on track on third down, they're going, Yeah,

713
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 3: they're gonna be rolled every week. And and you know

714
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 3: it's gonna be one of those things too, where the

715
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 3: way their offense is clicking right now, where they're running

716
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 3: the ball fifty eight percent of the time, the other

717
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 3: team's gonna be able to do nothing but stand there

718
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 3: and watch because they're gonna be running the ball. The

719
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:55,879
Speaker 3: clock's gonna take away, and they're just gonna keep scoring touchdowns.

720
00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 3: So that's where they're at. So this and and this

721
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 3: offensive line, to me, is the engine behind all of that. Okay,

722
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 3: and and I think if you're going to look for

723
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,839
Speaker 3: a young player, I mean Osyrus Torrens is the guy

724
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 3: you got to look at. He's gonna start since day one.

725
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,920
Speaker 2: All right, that's a fair submission, I'll accept. Now he's

726
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 2: you rejected mine. Well he's only been playing one year

727
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:18,439
Speaker 2: less than Benford, but okay.

728
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 3: He's younger. Say yeah, all right, which young Bill's player

729
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,799
Speaker 3: do you think he is yet to make his mark?

730
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 3: We can pick somebody else as you think is destined

731
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 3: for stardom. Eight oh three, five fifty the number to

732
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 3: get on board.

733
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 2: Let's go to the phones. We're gonna lead off with

734
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 2: Tom on a cell. Let me punch him up. Here

735
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 2: is this not working for me? There we go, Tom,

736
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 2: What do you got for us here? On one Bill's life?

737
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 6: You got me?

738
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 2: Yeah? I got you?

739
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 7: Now it was my problem on my end, no problem,

740
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 7: Greg Russo.

741
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a guy I picked for double digit sex.

742
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 2: Uh before the season started. You feel you feel like

743
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 2: he's you think he's capable of that this year?

744
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, Hey, can I make another comment? Sure?

745
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 2: Go ahead, go ahead.

746
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 7: You were talking about the concussions yesterday. Either one of

747
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,360
Speaker 7: you guys remember the Rogers Stabach concussion.

748
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 2: That's a little I don't. I remember stawback at the

749
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:23,919
Speaker 2: end of his career, but that's a little too young

750
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 2: for me.

751
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 3: I don't far back. I don't remember anything. Concussion running

752
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 3: you remember that?

753
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 7: And he got hit real hard in the head, went

754
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 7: in the huddle and started to call Joe Bellino's number

755
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:42,400
Speaker 7: for the next play, So I guess they kind of

756
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 7: took him out.

757
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,440
Speaker 2: It's a different time back then, too. I think we

758
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 2: can hold very on that. So thanks for the call, Tom.

759
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 2: We appreciate you. Got other people. We gotta move along

760
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 2: to here. Uh, we go to Kevin in Williamsville next.

761
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:57,360
Speaker 2: What do you got for us? Kevin?

762
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 8: Guys? I love that location. That kind of loosens you

763
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 8: up a little bit. Love to see it more often.

764
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 8: You know, I hear what I call it. Hey, for sure,

765
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 8: I called in your show last year and spoke about

766
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 8: kickoffs and how the NFL brain trust should sit down

767
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 8: and kind of reinvent that play or a minute entirely.

768
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 8: And I've seen during the off season is what we

769
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 8: see today the new setup for kickoffs, which is to

770
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:31,560
Speaker 8: me still still bad. I love to see that change,

771
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 8: and Fine Tuned won't get into that. I want to

772
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,320
Speaker 8: lead into something else that I just had a brainstorm

773
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 8: the other day, and I like both of you just

774
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 8: to open your mind completely to this. This this idea

775
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 8: has to do with quarterback statistics. And I know what

776
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 8: I'm about to say. The NFL will never change or

777
00:39:54,520 --> 00:40:01,319
Speaker 8: implement this, but I think it stimulates conversation. Stand you know,

778
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:05,640
Speaker 8: attempts and completions for a quarterback. But when we look

779
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 8: at yards for a quarterback, I mean he's throwing the

780
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 8: ball to a receiver, a back or whoever, and it's

781
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 8: those people that are taking the ball sixty yards for

782
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:22,760
Speaker 8: a touchdown. And yes, I understand that the receiver should

783
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 8: get recognized for those yards that they've achieved, but the

784
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 8: quarterback is achieving those sixty yards on a screen pass

785
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:35,319
Speaker 8: where the guy runs sixty for a touchdown. I just

786
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 8: think that that the yardage is so is a huge

787
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 8: factor of a quarterback's ability. But really it's the receiver

788
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 8: that sala who's taking that ball, and the quarterback is benefiting.

789
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 8: So you know what I'm saying, go for it.

790
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get it. Why does that bother you so much?

791
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 2: What's the issue?

792
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 8: It doesn't, It doesn't bother me. It's just that it's

793
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 8: like they're unearned yards. You know, when you look at

794
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 8: Tom Brady and well, you know he's he's he's thrown

795
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 8: fifty miles and look at it, right, ninety thousand yards

796
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,759
Speaker 8: of his career. That's a big deal. He leaves it.

797
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 8: It's fifty miles in the little calculation. But it just

798
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 8: seems as though that the yardage is an unearned It's

799
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 8: it's the running back, it's the tight ends, the receiver

800
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:31,480
Speaker 8: that is really stimulated those yardage.

801
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 3: Let me submit to you, Kevin, there are analytics people

802
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 3: who do There are analytics people who do exactly that.

803
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 3: It's air yards that the ball that the guy throws

804
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 3: it did they throw it. There's charts out where the

805
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 3: quarterback will say, here's where they completed their passes.

806
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:46,359
Speaker 2: You can add those up.

807
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 3: So those somewhere in the analytics stew of the NFL.

808
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 3: They probably do have those statistics and there's probably guys

809
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 3: out there who can give you that. I'll bet Cynthia

810
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:59,839
Speaker 3: free Freelo can do that. People like Cynthia. They break

811
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,319
Speaker 3: that down is how far the quarterback had to throw

812
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 3: it to get it to that receiver, and those yards

813
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 3: I think should be given to the quarterback. But you're

814
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 3: right afterwards. But then there's also the scheme that and

815
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 3: defense that you're playing, So there's a couple of mixes

816
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:17,920
Speaker 3: into that too. It's a couple of things because if

817
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 3: you hit a running receiver, that guy's already on the

818
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 3: run and he's and it's schemed so that he gets

819
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:30,279
Speaker 3: yards after the catch. Same thing conversely is if the

820
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:31,920
Speaker 3: guy goes out and runs a button hook and he

821
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 3: put the ball right on him, he's standing still and

822
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 3: there's people right in. So whether it's zone coverage or

823
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 3: man coverage dictates how many yards the receiver, tight end,

824
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 3: running back get after the catch. So all of that

825
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,439
Speaker 3: goes into the mix. But there are analytics people who

826
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:52,560
Speaker 3: probably already do exactly what you're saying. They should do

827
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 3: how far the quarterback throws it to each reception, and

828
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 3: then what you know, what his completion percentage is how

829
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 3: far off target that is, whether it's to a turnover

830
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 3: worthy play.

831
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 2: Or just very simply, what are the yard what's the

832
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 2: yardage of the.

833
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,320
Speaker 3: Throw, which is what he's getting right, and then there's

834
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 3: inside of that there's good throws, bad throws.

835
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 2: So he's just concerned about pass yardage he gets unfairly

836
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 2: awarded to quarterbacks. I gets all the running the receivers

837
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 2: do have. I get it.

838
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 3: But sometimes the quarterback throws guys open, too, So there's

839
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:23,440
Speaker 3: a lot in that. And you're right, that is a

840
00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:27,919
Speaker 3: more specific stat that you can go to. Don't think

841
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,359
Speaker 3: people in the NFL aren't already all over that, because

842
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 3: I think they are. Whether those numbers are public or not,

843
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 3: that's another story.

844
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 2: Break time for us here Doug and Missouri, Brian and

845
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,879
Speaker 2: Alabama will get to you after the break. As we're

846
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:41,759
Speaker 2: asking you which young Bill's player is yet to make

848
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,399

00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 2: we return here on One Bill's Live, presented by Colida Health.

852
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:11,919
Speaker 2: It's entertaining. Thought it was fireworks. Maybe they're so happy

853
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 2: we're here. I think there's a motorcycle. Actually, motorcycle backfired.

00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:14,600
Speaker 2: about an hour ago, rolled up in his big pickup truck,

871
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:19,319
Speaker 2: threw about one hundred boxes into his payload. Yeah, and

872
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 2: he's going to be taking him to donate himself, so

873
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:26,160
Speaker 2: pay for him out of his own pocket. Nice job

00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 2: by Dion. Yeah, So he'll be donating those somewhere today

875
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,080
Speaker 2: on his off day. As as we know, he does

876
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 2: a lot of work in the community. So we got

877
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 2: to get back to the phones though. At eight oh

878
00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 2: three zero five fifty one eighty eight five fifty two

879
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 2: five fifty which young Bill's player has yet to make

880
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 2: his mark in the league, do you believe his destined

881
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 2: for starting based on what you've seen through the first

882
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,600
Speaker 2: two games. Back to the phones we go and to

883
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,239
Speaker 2: Doug out in Missouri.

884
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 9: What do you got for us, doug Hey, thanks for

885
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:56,879
Speaker 9: having taking my call. Appreciate it.

886
00:45:58,200 --> 00:45:58,480
Speaker 2: Sure.

887
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 8: So two things.

888
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 9: One, I think the young players Joe Anderson, that kid's

889
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 9: got a motor on him that just doesn't stop. And

890
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 9: I love the way he played in the preseason and

891
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 9: what I've seen of him on special teams as well

892
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 9: when he was active during preseason. I think the kid's

893
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,879
Speaker 9: gonna be really good. It might not be with a Bill.

894
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 9: You know, they've got so much depth at linebacker, although

895
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,520
Speaker 9: not enough right now, but anyways, that's my guy. The

896
00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:32,880
Speaker 9: other thing I want to say, I read somewhere just

897
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:37,640
Speaker 9: Monday yesterday about Sean mcdermot's got to go. We can't

898
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:40,839
Speaker 9: win a championship with him, blah blah blah, and I thought,

899
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 9: you know, that's crazy because he's such a good coach.

900
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 9: And I went and looked and Andy Reid was in

901
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,439
Speaker 9: a sixth season before he took the Eagles to their

902
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 9: first Super Bowl. This is Shawn's eighth season. We got

903
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 9: nothing to worry about. Shawn's a great coach and I

904
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,839
Speaker 9: love him. So that's all I got to say.

905
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 7: Shut out the bar, right, thanks.

906
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,160
Speaker 3: Listen, anytime you go through a rough patch in the season,

907
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:08,719
Speaker 3: there's always a segment of the fan base that's going

908
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:12,479
Speaker 3: to be discreened for, you know, a reaction, and usually

909
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 3: it starts with a head coach. It can be the GM,

910
00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 3: it can be anybody. It can be a coordinator too.

911
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:19,840
Speaker 3: It just it's part of it's kind of part of

912
00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 3: what these guys sign up for when they get into

913
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:25,279
Speaker 3: this industry. H We take calls all the time and

914
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 3: people there's there's always going to be a segment of

915
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 3: people in the you know, that are rooting for a

916
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 3: team that have zero faith in the head coach. It's

917
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 3: just fact, no matter what happens, and you just it's

918
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 3: part of what you sign up for. So, yeah, you're right,

919
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 3: you don't have to agree with them, but you know

920
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,000
Speaker 3: that it's just because they you know, they love their

921
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 3: team in their way, you can love it in yours.

922
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 3: So I'm kind of with you. I've said it time

923
00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:59,319
Speaker 3: and time again. Mc dermott got the job after being

924
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:02,080
Speaker 3: a defensive co ordinator, no question, he had some things

925
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 3: to learn, and we have all watched him learn and

926
00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:07,680
Speaker 3: get better over the years. I don't want to see

927
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:12,040
Speaker 3: him take that knowledge and skill set someplace else. We

928
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:15,399
Speaker 3: kind of we did it together. He has made a

929
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:19,280
Speaker 3: concerted effort, a very open and honest effort to get better.

930
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,279
Speaker 2: And as for and he's done it. Yeah. And as

931
00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 2: for Joe Andreeson, he may be active this week because

932
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:30,239
Speaker 2: it's unlikely that Bernard is going to play. Milano is

933
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,840
Speaker 2: still out of the lineup, and so Baile Inspector's the

934
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:38,040
Speaker 2: presumed starter middle linebacker Dorian Williams at the weak side position.

935
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,600
Speaker 2: Nicholas Morrow is one of the backups. Who's the other?

936
00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:47,319
Speaker 2: I mean it's it's either Eulafogio or Andreson. So there's

937
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 2: a decision to be made this week. Joe Andreeson could

938
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 2: be active for his first NFL regular season game this week.

939
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:54,760
Speaker 2: He's probably just gonna play on special teams.

940
00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 3: But while you say that, and then all of a sudden,

941
00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:59,279
Speaker 3: he's making two interceptions and one pick six, you know,

942
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 3: I mean that's how that stuff goes ingram right, So

943
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:06,120
Speaker 3: I mean what you did, But yeah, that's yea if

944
00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:08,759
Speaker 3: he's and let's face it, two, he did that in

945
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:10,960
Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh game in the preseason. They plugged him in

946
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:12,400
Speaker 3: there and he said, listen, you're gonna not only are

947
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,520
Speaker 3: you gonna play, you're gonna he calling the defense, is

948
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:15,600
Speaker 3: gonna make an adjustments.

949
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 2: Let's go out. And he did it. I mean that's that.

950
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,560
Speaker 3: Forget about the tackles on that ability to get the

951
00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:26,360
Speaker 3: defense lined up and in the right spot is way

952
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:28,879
Speaker 3: more important than any tackle he made in those games

953
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:32,160
Speaker 3: because it makes the coaches trust him. Yep, and certainly

954
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:34,560
Speaker 3: he didn't fall down in the tackling in part of

955
00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 3: the game either, But the guy got everybody lined up,

956
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:41,520
Speaker 3: had the radio. That was hugely important for his ability

957
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:44,240
Speaker 3: to get on the fifty three. And don't kid yourself,

958
00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:47,520
Speaker 3: that's that's why he's here. It's not because he made

959
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 3: all those tackles and ran sideline the sideline and did

960
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,880
Speaker 3: all that, although you know it was important his ability

961
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:54,799
Speaker 3: to make sure all the other ten guys on the

962
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:55,840
Speaker 3: field were in the right spot.

963
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:58,760
Speaker 2: Got to squeeze in Brian here before the break. Brian,

964
00:49:58,760 --> 00:49:59,520
Speaker 2: what do you got for us?

965
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:03,640
Speaker 10: Hey, good afternoon, tell us for me. For me, it'll

966
00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 10: be Cold Bishop, only because I felt like had he

967
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:09,800
Speaker 10: not been injured, he would have been in the runner

968
00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 10: for the starting position. And it's not because I've seen

969
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:17,400
Speaker 10: anything bad between Hamlin and rap they played excellent. But

970
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 10: I really think that it's been scheme based that has

971
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 10: really helped the defense. Eventually, think that the Bills will

972
00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:26,319
Speaker 10: come across other teams that will try to expose our

973
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:29,400
Speaker 10: secondary because that was our weak point going into the season,

974
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:32,000
Speaker 10: and I just have a feeling like Cold Bishop can

975
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:34,799
Speaker 10: have that theral, but no type of impact like he

976
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 10: did last year, where he Terrell was unknown and everybody

977
00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,440
Speaker 10: was scared, and everybody was worried because we hadn't seen

978
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,000
Speaker 10: anything from him, and then he started making splash plays,

979
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,360
Speaker 10: and so I just really think Cold Bishop has a

980
00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 10: higher upside and uh, you know, and and this high

981
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,880
Speaker 10: you know, high risks, high reward. But happy that Rapping

982
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,760
Speaker 10: Hamlin is playing good. But my choice is Cold Bishop.

983
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:02,520
Speaker 2: Right, Okay, thanks Brian, appreciate the call. Yeah, good pick.

984
00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:05,680
Speaker 2: We are up against the break. Bishop actually did get

985
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:07,200
Speaker 2: some run at the end of the game last week

986
00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,800
Speaker 2: after it was already in hand, got Edwards and Bishop

987
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:11,640
Speaker 2: out there late. And Bishop actually had a pass breakup

988
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 2: in the end zone near the end of the game.

989
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 2: So be interesting to see if and when he gets

990
00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:18,600
Speaker 2: some more opportunities down the line. Here break time for us.

991
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:20,799
Speaker 2: When we come back, we're going to be joined in

992
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:25,600
Speaker 2: our number two by senior NFL writer for the Boston Globe.

993
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 2: It's Ben Volan. He's gonna help us out with some

994
00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 2: AFC East news and what's going on here in the

995
00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:34,840
Speaker 2: first two weeks. Why has scorning been down in the NFL.

996
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:37,320
Speaker 2: He'll tell us next here on one Bill's Live, presented

997
00:51:37,320 --> 00:52:48,360
Speaker 2: by Colida Health it's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

998
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:19,040
Speaker 1: These one Bills Live presented by Kalida Health.

999
00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:24,000
Speaker 2: All right, here we are our number two live on

1000
00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 2: location at Wegman's on McKinley Parkway. Stop by and say

1001
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,040
Speaker 2: hi if you're gonna do some grocery shopping between now

1002
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:33,480
Speaker 2: and three in the after Yah, we can't really say

1003
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,360
Speaker 2: unless we're in a break, but please to be joined

1004
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 2: now joining us on the line. Senior NFL writer from

1005
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,759
Speaker 2: the Boston Globe, Ben Volin joins the show and uh, Ben,

1006
00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:45,760
Speaker 2: we were planning on taking a spin around the AFC

1007
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:49,920
Speaker 2: East here, but I didn't really expect it to mainly

1008
00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:53,759
Speaker 2: involve major injuries. That the injury hits in this division

1009
00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:59,960
Speaker 2: have been pretty remarkable. Juan Bentley, Terrell Bernard, Jermaine Johnson.

1010
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:02,440
Speaker 2: I mean, the list just keeps on running and then

1011
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 2: too obviously, So what do you make of that here

1012
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:07,760
Speaker 2: through the first two games.

1013
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:11,640
Speaker 11: What I make of it is that they say the

1014
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 11: NFL is a contact sport, and they're wrong. It's a

1015
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:18,719
Speaker 11: collision sport, and it's high speed collisions. Lots of car

1016
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:23,080
Speaker 11: recks every week, and these injuries happen, and fortunately so

1017
00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:26,439
Speaker 11: far it hasn't affected too many quarterbacks. Obviously it took

1018
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 11: down to a tago by Low and the Dolphins. They're

1019
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 11: struggling with some quarterback injuries right now. But it's a

1020
00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:34,600
Speaker 11: fact of life and you better build up some death

1021
00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:35,240
Speaker 11: in the NFL.

1022
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:36,719
Speaker 12: I think you missed an.

1023
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:40,000
Speaker 11: Important one about Matt Malano for your Buffalo Bills. I

1024
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:44,040
Speaker 11: think it's a pretty big loss that defense. Similar a

1025
00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:46,399
Speaker 11: similar injury now with Juwan Bentley, where he's a guy

1026
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:48,760
Speaker 11: who's kind of the heart and soul of the Patriots defense.

1027
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:52,040
Speaker 11: The guy who wears the green dot, gets everyone lined up,

1028
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:56,520
Speaker 11: is really smart, you know, points out tells on the

1029
00:53:56,719 --> 00:53:59,360
Speaker 11: you know from the other team's offense, and lets the

1030
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:02,160
Speaker 11: guys know what to expect. So that is certainly going

1031
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:05,680
Speaker 11: to be a tough loss for the Patriots in losing

1032
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 11: Juwan Bentley.

1033
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:08,640
Speaker 12: But it's a factive life in the NFL.

1034
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:11,240
Speaker 11: If you can make it a game without any serious injuries,

1035
00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:14,959
Speaker 11: that's a win in and of itself. So your depth

1036
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:17,320
Speaker 11: is always going to be tested, especially as the season

1037
00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:21,480
Speaker 11: creeps into seventeen games and probably pretty soon eighteen games.

1038
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:24,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, it really is all about, you know, how you

1039
00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,440
Speaker 3: mitigate the injuries and the guys that are in the

1040
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:29,560
Speaker 3: lineup and out of the lineup, and for your team,

1041
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:33,279
Speaker 3: like a team like your Patriots up there, that their

1042
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,800
Speaker 3: engine really has been at this point of the season.

1043
00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:39,160
Speaker 3: The date defense played at a high level. You know,

1044
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:43,000
Speaker 3: you can take maybe some injuries to one side of

1045
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:44,960
Speaker 3: the ball or the other, but when you start chipping

1046
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 3: away at what really drives your team forward, that's when

1047
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:50,920
Speaker 3: you really start to struggle. What about the Patriots and

1048
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 3: their current situation right now with their offense and their

1049
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:57,759
Speaker 3: defense and how they intertwine.

1050
00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:01,200
Speaker 11: The offense has been very safe through two games, a

1051
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 11: lot of running the ball. I think Jacoby Brissett has

1052
00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:08,720
Speaker 11: only attempted two deep passes the entire season that passes

1053
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:11,080
Speaker 11: that travel at least twenty yards in the air. That's

1054
00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:14,160
Speaker 11: tied for the fewest in the NFL with Jayden Daniels.

1055
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:17,759
Speaker 11: So it's been very safe on offense. You know, I

1056
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:19,719
Speaker 11: have to give them credit though. The Patriots have been

1057
00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:24,279
Speaker 11: a much more competent and credible outfit than I think

1058
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:25,320
Speaker 11: a lot of us expected.

1059
00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:27,200
Speaker 12: Their training camp did not seem to go well.

1060
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:31,080
Speaker 11: Their last preseason game was a National TV game against Washington.

1061
00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:34,319
Speaker 11: It was a disaster, especially on the offensive line and

1062
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:36,280
Speaker 11: you know what, through two games, you know, it hasn't

1063
00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:39,879
Speaker 11: been an explosive offense by any stretch, but they've minimized turnovers.

1064
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:42,760
Speaker 11: Jacoby Brissette has done, I think a really nice job

1065
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:46,160
Speaker 11: of at least avoiding negative plays and getting out of

1066
00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 11: sacks and throwing the ball away and living to see

1067
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:51,440
Speaker 11: another day. The offensive line at least hasn't committed too

1068
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:54,160
Speaker 11: many penalties that the Patriots have played pretty clean football,

1069
00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:57,280
Speaker 11: and the defense has played well. Even though Gino Smith

1070
00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,480
Speaker 11: completed a lot of passes and through for threehundred yards

1071
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 11: the other day, the Patriots still, you know, that was

1072
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:04,520
Speaker 11: a very winnable game. If the Patriots didn't have a

1073
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:07,200
Speaker 11: forty eight yard field goal block, they've probably win that game.

1074
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,480
Speaker 11: And they still held the Seahawks at twenty three points.

1075
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:14,120
Speaker 11: You know, but you mentioned chipping away this Patriots defense.

1076
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:16,960
Speaker 11: They've lost arguably their three best players from last year.

1077
00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:20,920
Speaker 11: They lost linebacker Joan Bentley, now they traded Matthew Judon,

1078
00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:23,399
Speaker 11: and Christian Barmore is going to be out most if

1079
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:27,000
Speaker 11: not the whole season with blood clots. So we're only

1080
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:29,600
Speaker 11: in Week three and we're already down a few pieces

1081
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:31,480
Speaker 11: up here, significant ones.

1082
00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:34,800
Speaker 12: So you know, the defense.

1083
00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:39,279
Speaker 11: We'll see how the death is certainly tested as the season.

1084
00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:39,520
Speaker 6: Has gone on.

1085
00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 12: But you know, some new players have emerged to line

1086
00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:43,839
Speaker 12: to vay.

1087
00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:49,360
Speaker 11: This line linebacker playing alongside Bentley has been fantastic, Christian Gonzales,

1088
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:52,680
Speaker 11: last year's first round pick. He's trailed Jamar Chase and

1089
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:54,319
Speaker 11: dk Metcalf through two games and.

1090
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 12: It has done a really nice job.

1091
00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:58,120
Speaker 11: So some new faces are starting to step up for

1092
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 11: the Patriots defense, and it's a unit that.

1093
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:02,360
Speaker 12: Has certainly kept them close.

1094
00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:04,759
Speaker 11: They just need Jacoby Versett in the offense to find

1095
00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 11: a way to put a few more points on the board.

1096
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:10,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, and with that in mind, Ben, you know short

1097
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:13,359
Speaker 2: week this week playing a Jets defense, it's a little

1098
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:17,640
Speaker 2: injury hobbled themselves. Then San Francisco on the road. Are

1099
00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 2: people already handicapping when we might see Drake May? And

1100
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:24,720
Speaker 2: is it during that two game homestand in early October?

1101
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:28,120
Speaker 11: I mean people have been handicapping when we're gonna see

1102
00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:30,280
Speaker 11: Drake May from the first day of camp and even

1103
00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:32,040
Speaker 11: the day that Jakobyverssette was.

1104
00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:32,760
Speaker 12: Named the starter.

1105
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:35,640
Speaker 11: People are saying everyone kind of knows that he's just

1106
00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:39,440
Speaker 11: the placeholder yet, But you know what, I think Jacoby

1107
00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 11: Verssett has definitely bought himself some time by winning that

1108
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,240
Speaker 11: first game against Cincinnati.

1109
00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:47,240
Speaker 12: His numbers aren't great, but he is not the problem.

1110
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:50,000
Speaker 11: The offensive line. The pass protection has not been very good.

1111
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 11: They don't have much a wide receiver. The Patriots kind

1112
00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:55,120
Speaker 11: of are who it thought. They were kind of very

1113
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:58,560
Speaker 11: limited on offense. They have good tight ends and running backs,

1114
00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:00,360
Speaker 11: so that's kind of where the focus of the offense

1115
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:03,240
Speaker 11: has been. But Drake May right now, there is no

1116
00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:05,840
Speaker 11: need to rush him into the lineup. I think, you know,

1117
00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 11: you risk getting him just getting battered out there with

1118
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 11: the hits that Jacoby Brissett is taking right now.

1119
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,000
Speaker 12: I mean, Brissette's not gonna last much longer if he

1120
00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:16,480
Speaker 12: keeps taking hits like this. The Seahawks really.

1121
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:19,520
Speaker 11: Beat him up the other day, and he's actually done

1122
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:21,960
Speaker 11: a nice job of avoiding several more sacks.

1123
00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:22,920
Speaker 12: But no quarterback.

1124
00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:25,680
Speaker 11: I think Will Levis is the only quarterback who's been

1125
00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:27,800
Speaker 11: under pressure more than Jacoby Brissett right now.

1126
00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:30,200
Speaker 12: And if you throw Drake May out there, there might.

1127
00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:31,760
Speaker 11: Be a few plays where he can run around and

1128
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 11: maybe outrun the pass rush, but I think he's he's

1129
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:37,120
Speaker 11: gonna get battered if you throw Drake May out there

1130
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:39,600
Speaker 11: and you risk an injury, a spring ankle, you know,

1131
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:40,480
Speaker 11: a shoulder.

1132
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:43,120
Speaker 12: Injury, something worse. There is no rush to put him

1133
00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:43,640
Speaker 12: in the game.

1134
00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:46,320
Speaker 11: That said, if the next two games against the Jets

1135
00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:48,800
Speaker 11: and the Niners are just a total disaster, then yeah,

1136
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:52,400
Speaker 11: maybe Week five at home, then you know, Week six

1137
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 11: at home against Houston. Maybe those two games Miami than Houston,

1138
00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:58,320
Speaker 11: those could be where he played Drake May. But I

1139
00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:02,160
Speaker 11: think Jakoby said it has probably bought himself some time, and

1140
00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 11: I just don't think Drake May is ready yet. I

1141
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:06,520
Speaker 11: don't think he knows the offense to the liking that

1142
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,479
Speaker 11: the coaches want, and there's no need to run.

1143
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:10,760
Speaker 12: Him out there and risk getting injured.

1144
00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:13,440
Speaker 11: The last thing you want is Drake May finishing the

1145
00:59:13,520 --> 00:59:16,400
Speaker 11: year on IR and he can't practice and he can't develop.

1146
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:19,440
Speaker 11: This team is you know, probably not going to make

1147
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:20,240
Speaker 11: the playoffs this year.

1148
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 12: There's no need to rush him.

1149
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,360
Speaker 11: And take take your time with Drake May and develop

1150
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:25,920
Speaker 11: him the right way and make sure that he doesn't

1151
00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:26,480
Speaker 11: get injured.

1152
00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:30,040
Speaker 3: You know, both you and us, I mean, we have

1153
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:32,160
Speaker 3: our teams that we cover on a full time basis.

1154
00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:34,480
Speaker 3: But around the league, and we mentioned this a little

1155
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:37,040
Speaker 3: bit on our show yesterday that around the league scoring

1156
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:40,760
Speaker 3: is down and so is passing yards around the football league.

1157
00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:43,280
Speaker 3: Now it may seem okay to you in New England

1158
00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:46,520
Speaker 3: because you got this quarterback in waiting, and Jacoby said

1159
00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:49,680
Speaker 3: the expectations were low anyway, but all over the league

1160
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:54,120
Speaker 3: teams are throwing it for less yardage and scoring is down.

1161
00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:59,280
Speaker 3: You think there's any overriding trend, strategic trend that's causing that,

1162
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:03,040
Speaker 3: or is it just you know, early season, you know woes.

1163
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:05,960
Speaker 12: I mean, I think it's probably a combination of all

1164
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:06,320
Speaker 12: of it.

1165
01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:09,919
Speaker 11: So the score you're right, scoring is way down and

1166
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:13,120
Speaker 11: apples to apples like scoring through week two this year

1167
01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:15,960
Speaker 11: compared to Week two last year and week two in history.

1168
01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:18,800
Speaker 11: Scoring is down three points per game from last year,

1169
01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:22,160
Speaker 11: and overall it's the fewest touchdowns scored per game since

1170
01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:24,800
Speaker 11: like two thousand and six. So scoring is definitely down

1171
01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:25,280
Speaker 11: and that.

1172
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:27,240
Speaker 12: Is not music to the NFL's ears.

1173
01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 11: They want points and offense and passing yards and fantasy

1174
01:00:30,640 --> 01:00:32,880
Speaker 11: stats and all of that. And for the last couple

1175
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 11: of years now it has been trending downward. Some of

1176
01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:38,440
Speaker 11: it has been just the number of quarterback injuries.

1177
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:39,000
Speaker 12: Last year.

1178
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:41,800
Speaker 11: There were a ton of legitimate you know, Joe Burrow,

1179
01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:46,040
Speaker 11: Aaron Rodgers, you know, real guys Justin Herbert going down

1180
01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:50,040
Speaker 11: with injuries this year so far, I think, honestly, I

1181
01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:52,080
Speaker 11: think the well the NFL, first of all, will point

1182
01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,160
Speaker 11: to the fact that teams are playing more too high

1183
01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:58,600
Speaker 11: safety than ever before. Defenses have never been safer and

1184
01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:01,920
Speaker 11: just willing to give up the short, you know, quicker passes.

1185
01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:05,760
Speaker 11: So I think you see completion percentages up, but yards

1186
01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:07,960
Speaker 11: per attempt are down in points per down just because

1187
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,800
Speaker 11: teams are playing back and playing the two deep safety more.

1188
01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 11: But honestly, I think the NFL has a getting ready problem.

1189
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:16,160
Speaker 11: I think they have a problem getting teams ready for

1190
01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:18,240
Speaker 11: week one and two, you know, for the first month

1191
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:20,640
Speaker 11: of the season. And I think a lot of it

1192
01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:22,480
Speaker 11: goes back to how training camps are run.

1193
01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:22,760
Speaker 12: Now.

1194
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:25,760
Speaker 11: They have all these very strict rules about how often

1195
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:28,640
Speaker 11: you can have practice, how long the practices can be,

1196
01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:31,880
Speaker 11: how many can be in pads. And these are important

1197
01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,400
Speaker 11: rules because they're in the name of player safety, and

1198
01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:37,200
Speaker 11: they've done a lot of research about, you know, how

1199
01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:40,320
Speaker 11: to minimize groin polls, and hamstring polls and the types

1200
01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:42,280
Speaker 11: of injuries that if you suffer them in training camp

1201
01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:44,440
Speaker 11: they can linger into the season. So they've done a

1202
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:46,720
Speaker 11: good job of cutting down on injuries, but I think

1203
01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:50,160
Speaker 11: these teams have you know, the downside is that it's

1204
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:52,440
Speaker 11: the coaches haven't figured out how to get their teams

1205
01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:54,880
Speaker 11: actually prepared to play in Week one. And I just

1206
01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 11: think you see a lot of sloppiness on offense. The

1207
01:01:57,840 --> 01:02:00,160
Speaker 11: defenses are well ahead of where the offense is a

1208
01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:02,960
Speaker 11: right now, and I just think the way that training

1209
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:06,360
Speaker 11: camp is run it has led to safer football, which

1210
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:09,400
Speaker 11: is definitely good, but it's led to sloppier football earlier

1211
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:12,160
Speaker 11: in the season, and to me, it means, you know,

1212
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:17,360
Speaker 11: less execution, less Christmas on offense, fewer passing yards, and

1213
01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:18,120
Speaker 11: fewer points.

1214
01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:23,000
Speaker 2: All right, So we're early in the season and there

1215
01:02:23,040 --> 01:02:27,440
Speaker 2: are plenty of zero to two teams already, and immediately

1216
01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:32,040
Speaker 2: the temperature gauge gets turned up on coaches in terms

1217
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:36,920
Speaker 2: of a hot seat, maybe starting quarterbacks too, But I mean,

1218
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:40,040
Speaker 2: I don't worry about a guy like Zach Taylor and

1219
01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 2: Cincinnati start oing too. They seemingly do that every year.

1220
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:47,880
Speaker 2: So seeing them start oh and two is like par

1221
01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:50,200
Speaker 2: for the course because they usually turn it around and

1222
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,520
Speaker 2: find themselves in the playoffs, provided they're important, people are healthy.

1223
01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:56,880
Speaker 2: Is there anybody that comes to mind though, that could

1224
01:02:56,880 --> 01:03:00,400
Speaker 2: be seeing the temperature gauge turned up on their seat.

1225
01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:01,560
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1226
01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:04,600
Speaker 12: There are two coaches who are owned too, and their seats.

1227
01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:07,040
Speaker 11: Are on fire right now. One is in New York

1228
01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:10,560
Speaker 11: with Brian Dable not going well in his third year.

1229
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:13,959
Speaker 11: The thing with the kicker last week, Maybe it wasn't

1230
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:16,120
Speaker 11: his fault, but just a terrible look to not be

1231
01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:19,320
Speaker 11: prepared at kicker. They knew going into the game that

1232
01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:22,920
Speaker 11: he was hobbled. You know, he's saying it was a

1233
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:25,360
Speaker 11: groin injury, and he happened to pull his hamstering during

1234
01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:25,560
Speaker 11: the game.

1235
01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:26,840
Speaker 12: There's nothing you can do about.

1236
01:03:26,640 --> 01:03:28,400
Speaker 11: That, I guess. But you had a kicker on the

1237
01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:30,360
Speaker 11: practice squad. You could have called him up for the game.

1238
01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:32,480
Speaker 11: And it cost you to not have a kicker in

1239
01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:35,920
Speaker 11: that game against Washington pretty inexcusable.

1240
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,200
Speaker 12: So Brian Dable, you know, Daniel Jones.

1241
01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:40,320
Speaker 11: The offense is not going well there, Brian Dable in

1242
01:03:40,400 --> 01:03:43,720
Speaker 11: that Giants offense, they're in trouble right now.

1243
01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 12: They need to win some games in a hurry.

1244
01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:48,360
Speaker 11: And it doesn't help that Saquon Barkley that dropped last night,

1245
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:52,040
Speaker 11: notwithstanding Saquon Barkley's looking really good for the Eagles. So

1246
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:54,320
Speaker 11: just everything is kind of trending in the wrong direction

1247
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:58,600
Speaker 11: for Brian Dable. And same with Doug Peterson down in Jacksonville.

1248
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:01,320
Speaker 11: I mean, the owner there, Shad con made no bones

1249
01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:03,600
Speaker 11: about it. He came out and told the media, this

1250
01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:06,000
Speaker 11: is the best team we've ever had, with the most talented.

1251
01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:08,840
Speaker 11: It is time to win, you know, prove how good

1252
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:11,480
Speaker 11: we are by winning now, and really turned up the

1253
01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:14,520
Speaker 11: temperature on Doug Peterson early in the season. And then

1254
01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:17,440
Speaker 11: they go out and they collapse in Week one against Miami,

1255
01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:18,840
Speaker 11: they blow a halftime lead.

1256
01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:21,920
Speaker 12: Then they have a bad loss last week to the

1257
01:04:21,960 --> 01:04:25,120
Speaker 12: Browns at home. So Doug Peterson, that was a team

1258
01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:26,200
Speaker 12: that I want to say.

1259
01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:28,200
Speaker 11: They started eight and three last year and then they

1260
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:30,520
Speaker 11: finished eight and nine and missed the playoffs. So they

1261
01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,680
Speaker 11: fell apart last year and then they've fallen apart to

1262
01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:35,880
Speaker 11: start this year. Doug Peterson needs to win some games

1263
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:38,520
Speaker 11: in the war. Worst way to cool off his hot

1264
01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:39,280
Speaker 11: seat right now.

1265
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:42,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're coming to Buffalo on Monday, night. I

1266
01:04:42,880 --> 01:04:45,200
Speaker 2: expect them to be an ordinary bunch, but it's not

1267
01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:48,640
Speaker 2: an easy place to play in a primetime atmosphere.

1268
01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:50,360
Speaker 3: And even I know it is, it's really early and

1269
01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:53,320
Speaker 3: these players are really young. Give us a little synops

1270
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:56,479
Speaker 3: of your thoughts about you know, Jade and Daniels, even

1271
01:04:56,520 --> 01:05:01,000
Speaker 3: Bryce Young, CJ. Strouds teams to be picking up right

1272
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:05,040
Speaker 3: where he left off, and Caleb Williams up in Chicago.

1273
01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:08,520
Speaker 3: Give us a little quick thumbnail for these young quarterbacks.

1274
01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:10,320
Speaker 3: Maybe you got drafted this year or last year, and

1275
01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:12,520
Speaker 3: where they stand and what your prospects are for them.

1276
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 12: Yeah, Stroud is such a unicorn.

1277
01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:18,560
Speaker 11: He's kind of ruining the expectations for all young quarterbacks

1278
01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:21,800
Speaker 11: because he's he's picked things up so quickly and he's

1279
01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:22,680
Speaker 11: so good.

1280
01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:23,000
Speaker 6: Now.

1281
01:05:23,520 --> 01:05:25,320
Speaker 12: I know they only scored nineteen points the other night.

1282
01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:26,880
Speaker 12: That is a good Bears defense.

1283
01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:29,080
Speaker 11: But you've got to love where Stroud is and he's

1284
01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:31,720
Speaker 11: kind of ruined the grating curve for everyone else.

1285
01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:33,880
Speaker 12: You know, Bryce Young, what can you say?

1286
01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:37,520
Speaker 11: Trending towards becoming the worst number one pick ever, maybe

1287
01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:40,800
Speaker 11: even worse than JaMarcus Russell. You know, Russell lasted three

1288
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:43,680
Speaker 11: years with the Raiders. Bryce Young might not make it

1289
01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:46,680
Speaker 11: past too. They had to bench him, even though you know,

1290
01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:49,640
Speaker 11: it's not like Andy Dalton's the answer. But that team,

1291
01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:53,160
Speaker 11: it's getting ugly in Carolina, where the players are screaming

1292
01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:55,600
Speaker 11: on the sideline and the fans are booing at halftime

1293
01:05:55,720 --> 01:05:58,600
Speaker 11: and the stands are already empting and everyone's kind of

1294
01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:01,120
Speaker 11: lost hope. So Bryce Young, you hate to see it

1295
01:06:01,160 --> 01:06:03,280
Speaker 11: already for a young kid, but they had to make

1296
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 11: that move. And I'm not I'm really not sure how

1297
01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 11: much of a future he has left in the NFL

1298
01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:09,840
Speaker 11: because he just looks physically overmatched.

1299
01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:11,400
Speaker 12: He just looks like he doesn't have it.

1300
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:14,920
Speaker 11: As for this year's rookies, again, I think it's the

1301
01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:17,200
Speaker 11: way that the rookies are playing. I think it's another

1302
01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:19,800
Speaker 11: reason why the Patriots are smart for not rushing Drake Made.

1303
01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:21,120
Speaker 12: None of these kids are.

1304
01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:23,240
Speaker 11: Ready to play. I think Caleb Williams is going to

1305
01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:25,480
Speaker 11: be a fantastic pro. I think his tools are off

1306
01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:28,240
Speaker 11: the charts. He makes some throws that just make you

1307
01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:31,520
Speaker 11: say wow, but he doesn't see the field and he's

1308
01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:34,080
Speaker 11: second to last in passer rating. He's not, you know,

1309
01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:36,040
Speaker 11: completing fifty five percent of passes.

1310
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:38,320
Speaker 12: Leads the league in sacks, and that's not on the

1311
01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:39,040
Speaker 12: offensive line.

1312
01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:42,120
Speaker 11: That's on him. You know, he's a rookie, and it's okay.

1313
01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:45,200
Speaker 11: The NFL is hard. Same with bo Nicks. Bo Nicks's

1314
01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:47,520
Speaker 11: zero touchdowns and four picks so far.

1315
01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:50,280
Speaker 12: The NFL is hard. Rookies aren't supposed to come in

1316
01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:52,840
Speaker 12: and dominate right away. And even CJ.

1317
01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:55,160
Speaker 11: Stroud was zero to two after two games last year,

1318
01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:57,439
Speaker 11: no one was really talking about him and how great

1319
01:06:57,440 --> 01:07:00,000
Speaker 11: he was. It took him until you know, October November

1320
01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:03,040
Speaker 11: to really take off. So it's okay that these guys

1321
01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:04,080
Speaker 11: are struggling at first.

1322
01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:07,760
Speaker 12: They still have plenty of runway ahead of them.

1323
01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:10,560
Speaker 11: The guy who's been most impressive is Daniels, the number

1324
01:07:10,560 --> 01:07:13,160
Speaker 11: two pick for the Commanders. He had a nice efficient

1325
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:15,120
Speaker 11: game the other day, twenty three for twenty nine.

1326
01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:17,400
Speaker 12: Dialed back the runs a little bit.

1327
01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:20,080
Speaker 11: I know the Commanders after week one we're concerned about

1328
01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:21,960
Speaker 11: him running sixteen times and all the.

1329
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:22,800
Speaker 12: Hits he was taking.

1330
01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:25,880
Speaker 11: But clearly a dynamic athlete who can make plays happen

1331
01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:26,760
Speaker 11: he can make.

1332
01:07:27,240 --> 01:07:29,040
Speaker 12: He can be an efficient game manager too.

1333
01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:31,040
Speaker 11: And even though they didn't score a touchdown, they had

1334
01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:33,880
Speaker 11: seven field goals. They won a game against the Giants

1335
01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:36,200
Speaker 11: the other day. I think Jayden Daniels so far through

1336
01:07:36,240 --> 01:07:38,080
Speaker 11: two weeks has shown the most of any of the

1337
01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:43,240
Speaker 11: rookie quarterbacks. But again, it's not where to be a

1338
01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:45,120
Speaker 11: us A cliche here. It's not where they start, it

1339
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:47,000
Speaker 11: is how they progress and where they finish at the

1340
01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:47,600
Speaker 11: end of the year.

1341
01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:51,600
Speaker 2: All right, before we let you go, Ben, just your

1342
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:55,080
Speaker 2: thoughts on the Thursday night matchup Jets Patriots. How do

1343
01:07:55,120 --> 01:07:56,720
Speaker 2: you see that one kind of unfolding?

1344
01:07:57,880 --> 01:07:58,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, some of the.

1345
01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,560
Speaker 11: Jets are like six and a half point five And

1346
01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:03,520
Speaker 11: maybe I'm just wearing my Patriots colored glasses here, but

1347
01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:06,200
Speaker 11: I think they're gonna keep it pretty close. The Jets

1348
01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:09,480
Speaker 11: have not been impressive stopping of run, especially on the outside.

1349
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:12,680
Speaker 11: I loved watching Bill Belichick on the Manning Cast because

1350
01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:16,040
Speaker 11: he really gives you a lot of good insight into

1351
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:18,200
Speaker 11: tactics and game planning. He's not afraid to tell you

1352
01:08:18,240 --> 01:08:20,679
Speaker 11: how to attack these teams, and he pointed out over

1353
01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:24,000
Speaker 11: and over how the forty nine ers were able to

1354
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:26,799
Speaker 11: hit the Jets on these outside sweeps and crack tosses

1355
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:30,439
Speaker 11: and the outside runs away from the middle of the

1356
01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:33,240
Speaker 11: Jets defense, So I would expect the Patriots to do

1357
01:08:33,280 --> 01:08:35,679
Speaker 11: the same, really try to pound the ball with Ramandre

1358
01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:40,320
Speaker 11: Stevenson and Antonio Gibson, another safe game plan with Jacoby Brissett,

1359
01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:42,800
Speaker 11: maybe sprinkle in a little more play action this time.

1360
01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:45,599
Speaker 11: And even without John Bentley, I think the Patriots defense

1361
01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:48,160
Speaker 11: will be able to make life difficult for Aaron Rodgers,

1362
01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:52,240
Speaker 11: who you know clearly isn't clicking yet and the Jets

1363
01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:55,680
Speaker 11: offense is not running smoothly. And even when he was

1364
01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:59,160
Speaker 11: with the Packers, he would tell fans every year, you know, relax,

1365
01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:00,840
Speaker 11: we're gonna get this thing figured out.

1366
01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:03,479
Speaker 12: So I think it's gonna be a close, slug fast

1367
01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:07,120
Speaker 12: kind of a game. I think the Patriots might even pull.

1368
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:09,280
Speaker 11: Off the upset if they can play a clean game

1369
01:09:09,320 --> 01:09:11,800
Speaker 11: and avoid some turnovers. I think the Patriots might be

1370
01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:12,840
Speaker 11: able to pull this one off.

1371
01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:15,840
Speaker 2: And then Robert Sala's seat, we'll get a little bit

1372
01:09:18,240 --> 01:09:20,720
Speaker 2: in front of a primetime audience. Ben, thanks for the time,

1373
01:09:20,760 --> 01:09:22,519
Speaker 2: and as always, we appreciate it. We'll catch up with

1374
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:23,200
Speaker 2: you down the line.

1375
01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:25,320
Speaker 12: Hey, thanks so much, guys.

1376
01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:29,200
Speaker 2: All Right, that's Ben Volans, senior NFL writer for the

1377
01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:32,160
Speaker 2: Boston Globe. Usually has his finger on the pulse of

1378
01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:34,519
Speaker 2: the Patriots, but also covers the league at large as well,

1379
01:09:34,560 --> 01:09:36,439
Speaker 2: and I wanted to get him on for some of

1380
01:09:36,439 --> 01:09:38,479
Speaker 2: the AFC East news that's been coming down the pike.

1381
01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:40,880
Speaker 2: Here we can't even talk to him about now. The

1382
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:44,920
Speaker 2: Dolphins now have Tyler Huntley as their backup quarterback, where

1383
01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:49,320
Speaker 2: they signed off Baltimore's practice squad yesterday. Knowing too is

1384
01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:50,519
Speaker 2: going to be out of the mix for a bit

1385
01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:52,840
Speaker 2: here and Skyler Thompson is now the starter.

1386
01:09:53,160 --> 01:09:56,400
Speaker 3: Knowing what I know also about you know, Bill's fans

1387
01:09:56,400 --> 01:09:59,519
Speaker 3: and this team it is Bill's mafia is going to

1388
01:09:59,520 --> 01:10:03,599
Speaker 3: be too with keen interest to Thursday Night poll this week,

1389
01:10:04,320 --> 01:10:07,920
Speaker 3: Patriots at Jets, and as Benvillin said, he said, and

1390
01:10:07,960 --> 01:10:09,679
Speaker 3: there's no question I think it would be an upset

1391
01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:11,680
Speaker 3: if the Patriots walking there and been But that's the

1392
01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:15,680
Speaker 3: kind of game that the Patriots, I think, even this

1393
01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:18,840
Speaker 3: Patriots with with girod Mayo at at head coach they had.

1394
01:10:18,920 --> 01:10:20,400
Speaker 2: Can't you just see Mucket up there.

1395
01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:23,160
Speaker 3: Yes, it's just gonna be like this slog fest that's

1396
01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:25,840
Speaker 3: gonna be ten to seven late in the game or

1397
01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:28,439
Speaker 3: nine to nine to ten late in the game.

1398
01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:29,439
Speaker 2: You know, what I mean.

1399
01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:33,880
Speaker 3: And you know it's gonna be a defensive battle. But

1400
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:38,839
Speaker 3: once again, and here's the reason. The Patriots with Jacoby Brissett,

1401
01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:42,559
Speaker 3: they're not gonna give you, give you anything, They'll punt

1402
01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:45,200
Speaker 3: it to you, but you're gonna have to go the

1403
01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:47,240
Speaker 3: length of the field. And this defense is no joke.

1404
01:10:47,320 --> 01:10:51,080
Speaker 3: Now you know, you know they lost their uh middle

1405
01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:54,200
Speaker 3: linebacker this week. But man, oh man, you just this

1406
01:10:54,360 --> 01:10:57,439
Speaker 3: is not gonna be I mean, none of these neither

1407
01:10:57,439 --> 01:10:59,400
Speaker 3: of these teams are scoring twenty points this week.

1408
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:03,960
Speaker 2: J Mosley may not play. DJ Reid may not play.

1409
01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:07,360
Speaker 2: Jermaine Johnson's out for the year for the Jets. I mean,

1410
01:11:07,400 --> 01:11:09,760
Speaker 2: they're they're getting thinned out pretty quick too.

1411
01:11:10,040 --> 01:11:13,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the Patriots offense is just yes, it's aloppie.

1412
01:11:13,760 --> 01:11:16,120
Speaker 3: I mean they're really struggling to get it any you know,

1413
01:11:16,320 --> 01:11:17,280
Speaker 3: to have the engine hum.

1414
01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:19,519
Speaker 2: So it's a yes, little bit.

1415
01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:24,080
Speaker 3: We'll see, Wow, we'll see if you know if But

1416
01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:26,680
Speaker 3: I but I'm gonna watch. I'm gonna glued to that

1417
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:29,240
Speaker 3: thing because it's gonna be a really interesting game.

1418
01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:32,000
Speaker 2: Let's jump back on the phone lines at eight oh

1419
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:35,479
Speaker 2: three oh five fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two, five,

1420
01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:37,960
Speaker 2: fifty the numbers to join us, and we do have

1421
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:40,599
Speaker 2: open lines for you, which no Bills player who's yet

1422
01:11:40,600 --> 01:11:42,360
Speaker 2: to make his mark in the NFL do you believe

1423
01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:45,200
Speaker 2: is destined for starting? Maybe based on what you've seen

1424
01:11:45,280 --> 01:11:47,680
Speaker 2: through the first couple of weeks this season. It's a

1425
01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:49,439
Speaker 2: long season, as we know, but let us know if

1426
01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:52,160
Speaker 2: you got somebody in mind. And we go to Mark

1427
01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:53,960
Speaker 2: in West senecon next what do you got for us? Mark?

1428
01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:56,800
Speaker 13: Hey, gentlemen, where you are today? I had to call.

1429
01:11:56,840 --> 01:11:59,680
Speaker 13: I'll explain in a second quote as far as your

1430
01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:02,800
Speaker 13: question and goes, I was with you With Benford, I

1431
01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:05,760
Speaker 13: think he's right now. He's a solid corner, but I

1432
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:08,800
Speaker 13: think he could come out on the national radar if

1433
01:12:08,840 --> 01:12:11,599
Speaker 13: he continues to shut down receivers the way he seems

1434
01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:15,040
Speaker 13: to be doing. But the number one guy for me

1435
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:20,040
Speaker 13: is James Cook. And the reason I'm saying James is

1436
01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:23,599
Speaker 13: he had one of the best all time seasons in

1437
01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:26,760
Speaker 13: the league last year under the radar, and I think

1438
01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:29,960
Speaker 13: he's going to have even a better year this year

1439
01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:33,200
Speaker 13: and he's going to splash on the national scene, and

1440
01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:35,080
Speaker 13: I think they're going to be talking about him on

1441
01:12:35,120 --> 01:12:40,120
Speaker 13: all the national shows. He looked as fast against Miami

1442
01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:43,240
Speaker 13: as a Chan looked against us. Every time he took

1443
01:12:43,280 --> 01:12:45,400
Speaker 13: that ball, he looked like he was shot out of

1444
01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:49,080
Speaker 13: a cannon. He played tremendously as far as I was concerned.

1445
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:54,120
Speaker 13: And go back to why I called at the risk

1446
01:12:54,120 --> 01:12:57,680
Speaker 13: of a cheap, cheap plug. My wife works right next

1447
01:12:57,760 --> 01:13:00,920
Speaker 13: door at Lens Crafter's. Her name's Leleen. They are huge

1448
01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:03,559
Speaker 13: Bills fans over there, So if either of you guys

1449
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:07,200
Speaker 13: need new glasses, stopping and see hween. I want to

1450
01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:10,479
Speaker 13: make her a star now. And if you guys stop

1451
01:13:10,479 --> 01:13:12,559
Speaker 13: in there, you definitely will make.

1452
01:13:12,400 --> 01:13:13,000
Speaker 8: Her a star.

1453
01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:16,599
Speaker 13: Their doctor yesterday went over to that Wegmans that you're

1454
01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:20,600
Speaker 13: at and bought a shopping cart full of the Bill cereals.

1455
01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:23,720
Speaker 13: I think it was the Dawson Knox one and I

1456
01:13:23,720 --> 01:13:26,120
Speaker 13: don't know how much money she spent on them, but

1457
01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:31,080
Speaker 13: everybody in the store got Bill cereal and like I said,

1458
01:13:31,240 --> 01:13:34,439
Speaker 13: they're huge fans. So stop in say hello to my wife, Lleen,

Speaker 2: roster do you believe is set for stardom based on

1478

1483
01:14:47,280 --> 01:15:03,320
Speaker 2: Back in a moment, Welcome back one Bill's live Chris

01:15:15,479 --> 01:15:17,559
Speaker 2: We'll have more on that in just a little bit,

1488
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:20,960
Speaker 2: as we'll be joined by Wegman's Community and public Relations

1489
01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:24,720
Speaker 2: manager Michelle Mahaffey in just a little bit, But for now,

1490
01:15:24,760 --> 01:15:26,200
Speaker 2: we get back to the phones at eight h three

1491
01:15:26,280 --> 01:15:28,920
Speaker 2: zero five to fifty one eight eight eight five fifty

1492
01:15:29,360 --> 01:15:31,639
Speaker 2: two five fifty the number to get on board, got

1493
01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:35,360
Speaker 2: open lines for you as we're asking you what young

1494
01:15:35,400 --> 01:15:38,880
Speaker 2: Bill's player that really hasn't made his mark in the

1495
01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:42,240
Speaker 2: league yet is destined for stardom based on what you've

1496
01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:44,000
Speaker 2: seen through the first two weeks.

1497
01:15:45,120 --> 01:15:47,040
Speaker 3: If you think about it from the way that you

1498
01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:49,599
Speaker 3: think it's gonna happen and what we've seen through two games,

1499
01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:51,840
Speaker 3: you can pick a lot of them. And I think

1500
01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:54,280
Speaker 3: if we change the wording of the question like who

1501
01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:58,360
Speaker 3: would you wish which young players you wish would do

1502
01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:02,160
Speaker 3: that would Keon might run away with it, you know,

1503
01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:05,200
Speaker 3: because you'd love to have that big guy. Yeah, we

1504
01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:08,400
Speaker 3: got the best wide receiver in that whole class and

1505
01:16:09,840 --> 01:16:12,519
Speaker 3: he had the five targets on in week one. You think, Okay,

1506
01:16:12,520 --> 01:16:15,120
Speaker 3: here we go, it's gonna be awesome. Uh, and then

1507
01:16:15,240 --> 01:16:18,439
Speaker 3: you know that the offense starts, you know, finding everybody else,

1508
01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:22,559
Speaker 3: and I mean the efficiency is unbelievable. I think one

1509
01:16:22,560 --> 01:16:24,439
Speaker 3: of the byproducts of it, and we may not like,

1510
01:16:24,760 --> 01:16:27,320
Speaker 3: is that there isn't there isn't anybody that you can say,

1511
01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:29,120
Speaker 3: okay in this situation. We always go to this guy

1512
01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:31,639
Speaker 3: or that guy, or this guy or that guy. There's

1513
01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:34,240
Speaker 3: just too many guys that are quality guys that Josh

1514
01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:35,880
Speaker 3: just throws the open one.

1515
01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:35,920
Speaker 2: YEA.

1516
01:16:36,320 --> 01:16:38,200
Speaker 3: Makes it a different kind of feel for an offense,

1517
01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:40,479
Speaker 3: even though they're working at a high efficiency. As we've

1518
01:16:40,680 --> 01:16:42,720
Speaker 3: we talked about early in the show, they're off the

1519
01:16:42,800 --> 01:16:47,360
Speaker 3: charts in efficiency. You can't point to anybody James Cook

1520
01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:49,880
Speaker 3: maybe because he had three touchdowns in the first half,

1521
01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:53,240
Speaker 3: but you know it's it's it's a different feel.

1522
01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:55,280
Speaker 2: You know, it feels weird.

1523
01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:58,040
Speaker 3: Yeah two and oh and think, well, our offense has

1524
01:16:58,080 --> 01:17:02,400
Speaker 3: been awesome, but who's responsible? Even Josh his last game

1525
01:17:02,479 --> 01:17:03,599
Speaker 3: was you know, he took a back seat.

1526
01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:07,040
Speaker 2: He was Yeah. Pedestrian performance he's gonna need to do.

1527
01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:08,960
Speaker 3: And you've got a participation trophy for crying.

1528
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,160
Speaker 2: Now. Yeah, let's get back to the phones and to

1529
01:17:11,360 --> 01:17:13,719
Speaker 2: DJ out in Connecticut. What do you got first? DJ?

1530
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:17,120
Speaker 14: Hey, guys, great stuff as always.

1531
01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:18,160
Speaker 8: Uh.

1532
01:17:18,240 --> 01:17:21,879
Speaker 14: I think Dorian Williams. I think he's gonna prove throughout

1533
01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:25,799
Speaker 14: the season. He's going to be a great new, young, newer,

1534
01:17:26,040 --> 01:17:31,200
Speaker 14: young piece. I got two questions for you. Number one is,

1535
01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:36,720
Speaker 14: obviously McDermott and the Bills coaching staff game plan was

1536
01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:40,160
Speaker 14: was tremendous on Thursday night. Uh, I actually was there.

1537
01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:45,600
Speaker 14: My daughter goes to the universe of Miami and the

1538
01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:48,920
Speaker 14: uh so the question I have and he's certainly out

1539
01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:53,600
Speaker 14: coached McDaniels. I mean, it was ridiculous. Even the the

1540
01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:58,280
Speaker 14: Miami uh talk radio on Friday was blown up with that.

1541
01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:01,479
Speaker 14: He got his head headed to him. But anyway, so

1542
01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:03,120
Speaker 14: with a short week like that.

1543
01:18:03,479 --> 01:18:05,760
Speaker 15: How did they how did they practice?

1544
01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:09,040
Speaker 14: Did they practice and put in their game plan in

1545
01:18:09,360 --> 01:18:13,320
Speaker 14: sprit in uh uh, you know, in training camp and

1546
01:18:13,360 --> 01:18:16,360
Speaker 14: then go back to it because they had obviously the

1547
01:18:16,360 --> 01:18:18,439
Speaker 14: game on Sunday and then just three days and then

1548
01:18:18,479 --> 01:18:21,799
Speaker 14: Miami including the travel day. And then the second question

1549
01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:26,000
Speaker 14: was are you guys as amazed as everybody else? Uh

1550
01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:30,720
Speaker 14: that McDaniels didn't throw the ball and didn't make any

1551
01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:35,160
Speaker 14: adjustments in the second half, But thanks.

1552
01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:38,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, sure thing. DJ. I was surprised that he kept

1553
01:18:38,680 --> 01:18:41,720
Speaker 2: going back to the divan a chan well time and

1554
01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:44,080
Speaker 2: time and time again, and look, a chan was productive.

1555
01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:48,919
Speaker 2: But I feel like they went with the same approach

1556
01:18:49,520 --> 01:18:52,080
Speaker 2: that they did in their Week one game against Jacksonville.

1557
01:18:52,439 --> 01:18:55,720
Speaker 2: They threw all these balls out to the flat right

1558
01:18:55,760 --> 01:18:58,400
Speaker 2: at the line of scrimmage and tried to get the

1559
01:18:58,439 --> 01:19:02,160
Speaker 2: Bills to mistackles in And as we know, the Bills are,

1560
01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:06,080
Speaker 2: more often than not under McDermott a very sound, fundamental

1561
01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:09,760
Speaker 2: tackling team, and I think we saw evidence of that

1562
01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:12,479
Speaker 2: early in that game, and I just felt like they

1563
01:19:12,520 --> 01:19:16,040
Speaker 2: never were able to successfully pivot off of that because

1564
01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:17,960
Speaker 2: the Bills are very good at shutting down the middle

1565
01:19:17,960 --> 01:19:20,080
Speaker 2: of the field, which is where they usually have to

1566
01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:24,760
Speaker 2: a targeting in the passing game, guys on deep overs, crossers,

1567
01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:27,360
Speaker 2: even underneath. It's to the middle of the field a

1568
01:19:27,360 --> 01:19:30,240
Speaker 2: good deal of the time, and the Bills took that away.

1569
01:19:30,320 --> 01:19:32,559
Speaker 2: They had nothing left to turn to, and that's where

1570
01:19:32,560 --> 01:19:35,600
Speaker 2: the limitations of your quarterback like Tua come back to

1571
01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:38,880
Speaker 2: bite you because your playbook isn't completely open to anything

1572
01:19:38,960 --> 01:19:42,040
Speaker 2: and everything. If a defense can take away two of

1573
01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:44,200
Speaker 2: the best things that you do, which is make people

1574
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:46,400
Speaker 2: miss in space and work the middle of the field,

1575
01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:48,960
Speaker 2: the Bills effectively took both of those things away, and

1576
01:19:49,080 --> 01:19:51,800
Speaker 2: McDaniel had nothing left to go to that was gonna

1577
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:53,400
Speaker 2: work on any consistent basis.

1578
01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:56,320
Speaker 3: Who was a nice, elite deep ball thrower. But when

1579
01:19:56,360 --> 01:19:58,120
Speaker 3: you keep the lid on the defense and they take

1580
01:19:58,200 --> 01:20:02,080
Speaker 3: that away to has to come off of that and

1581
01:20:02,400 --> 01:20:04,760
Speaker 3: go to intermediate routes. He's not as good at that.

1582
01:20:08,240 --> 01:20:11,639
Speaker 3: And then the other go to is a quick release

1583
01:20:11,640 --> 01:20:13,639
Speaker 3: where he drops back, throws it to the flat, throws

1584
01:20:13,680 --> 01:20:16,320
Speaker 3: a quick slant, throws a quick out, throws a quick hitch,

1585
01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:19,040
Speaker 3: throws the bubble, the tunnel screen, all of that stuff.

1586
01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:22,519
Speaker 3: And when all that stuff's off the table and you

1587
01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:26,920
Speaker 3: and you can't go to a straight drop back and

1588
01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:29,439
Speaker 3: have to a stand there make the read and throw

1589
01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:32,200
Speaker 3: to the open guy. That's not part of their offense.

1590
01:20:33,040 --> 01:20:35,120
Speaker 3: So then they fall back to what they can do,

1591
01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:37,080
Speaker 3: and they could run the football, and the Bills are like, hey,

1592
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:39,320
Speaker 3: run it if you want go ahead. Yeah, all we

1593
01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:41,439
Speaker 3: need is one good stop or two good stops in

1594
01:20:41,439 --> 01:20:45,280
Speaker 3: a row, and you're stunk. You're stuck. So the Bills

1595
01:20:45,280 --> 01:20:48,240
Speaker 3: are perfectly willing to do that all you know, as

1596
01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:49,479
Speaker 3: many chances as they get.

1597
01:20:49,520 --> 01:20:51,160
Speaker 2: All they need is two.

1598
01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:54,960
Speaker 3: Run stops in a row and the Dolphins are dead

1599
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:58,000
Speaker 3: in the water. So that's what the Dolphins were reduced to.

1600
01:20:58,160 --> 01:21:03,679
Speaker 3: And it all boils down to it, my opinion, he

1601
01:21:03,920 --> 01:21:11,559
Speaker 3: just doesn't have the versatility as a thrower to have

1602
01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:15,840
Speaker 3: a passing offense that's multi that's multifaceted.

1603
01:21:15,880 --> 01:21:16,040
Speaker 2: You know.

1604
01:21:17,640 --> 01:21:20,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, he can throw quick and he can throw deep,

1605
01:21:20,479 --> 01:21:21,320
Speaker 3: and that is it.

1606
01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:26,599
Speaker 2: Right, And then concerning your other question, I would say

1607
01:21:26,680 --> 01:21:31,120
Speaker 2: it's safe to assume that the Bill's coaching staff for

1608
01:21:31,200 --> 01:21:35,679
Speaker 2: the entire offseason prepared two game plans for the first

1609
01:21:35,680 --> 01:21:39,720
Speaker 2: two weeks, knowing they were coming four days apart, especially

1610
01:21:39,760 --> 01:21:42,799
Speaker 2: a division opponent like Miami who they have a firm,

1611
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:47,120
Speaker 2: working base knowledge on. So I would venture to say

1612
01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:50,720
Speaker 2: it's safe to assume that the Bill's coaching staff had

1613
01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:53,479
Speaker 2: the foundation of a game plan already in place that

1614
01:21:53,479 --> 01:21:57,439
Speaker 2: they had put together from the off season, and then

1615
01:21:57,479 --> 01:21:59,880
Speaker 2: tweaked it and changed it based on what Week one

1616
01:22:00,120 --> 01:22:03,640
Speaker 2: film told them of their game against the Jaguars and

1617
01:22:03,680 --> 01:22:06,720
Speaker 2: then adjusted accordingly before putting it in front of the

1618
01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:08,000
Speaker 2: players and having them installed.

1619
01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:12,080
Speaker 3: They were fully They probably fully installed the dolphin stuff

1620
01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:14,680
Speaker 3: in the couple of weeks, last couple of weeks of

1621
01:22:14,720 --> 01:22:17,479
Speaker 3: training camp, as they started to getting deeper into the preseason.

1622
01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:21,160
Speaker 3: They probably ran some stuff against you know, the Steelers

1623
01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:23,840
Speaker 3: and the Bears and the Carolina Panthers that they were

1624
01:22:23,840 --> 01:22:26,400
Speaker 3: gonna run against Miami kind of thing, you know, maybe

1625
01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:31,160
Speaker 3: have some of the the basic stuff in and then yeah,

1626
01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:33,559
Speaker 3: like Brownie said, they tweaked it based on Week one,

1627
01:22:34,320 --> 01:22:37,240
Speaker 3: but that that stuff is all in their offense anyway.

1628
01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:40,519
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's I bet this. I bet they didn't

1629
01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:44,240
Speaker 3: have that fourth and three play to cook from the

1630
01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:45,880
Speaker 3: seventeen yard line. I bet that was new.

1631
01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:49,719
Speaker 2: But oh yes, Joe Brady told me they really didn't

1632
01:22:49,720 --> 01:22:52,479
Speaker 2: show anything in the preseason by design, right, They were

1633
01:22:52,520 --> 01:22:55,000
Speaker 2: running a lot of last year's plays. Let's go to

1634
01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:57,240
Speaker 2: Ron in Virginia next. What do you got for us? Ron?

1635
01:22:58,640 --> 01:23:02,080
Speaker 6: Hey, guys, Hey, Chris, hey, Steve, appreciate you taking the

1636
01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:03,800
Speaker 6: time out of speak with me in this outlet for

1637
01:23:03,840 --> 01:23:07,080
Speaker 6: all Bills fans everywhere across the world, and thank you,

1638
01:23:07,280 --> 01:23:09,240
Speaker 6: uh and Steve, you're one of my favorites. But to

1639
01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:12,920
Speaker 6: answer your question, I think Keon would be the breakout player.

1640
01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:15,880
Speaker 6: And I just have a couple of things if you

1641
01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:17,960
Speaker 6: don't mind real quick, how come they don't bring back

1642
01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:22,000
Speaker 6: the old school Steve Steve Tasker K gun. You know,

1643
01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:24,320
Speaker 6: the old no huddle, no huddle. But I guess with

1644
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:26,880
Speaker 6: you know the breaks that you got to give for something,

1645
01:23:26,960 --> 01:23:29,280
Speaker 6: that's why. And last but not least, to go back

1646
01:23:29,320 --> 01:23:32,840
Speaker 6: on the reporter, I like the old school, uh, hard

1647
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:35,880
Speaker 6: nose run the football because it makes the defense it's

1648
01:23:35,880 --> 01:23:39,320
Speaker 6: a challenge. If you throw too many points out there,

1649
01:23:39,439 --> 01:23:42,799
Speaker 6: it's gonna make it's gonna kind of go like a blowout.

1650
01:23:42,800 --> 01:23:44,760
Speaker 6: Who wants to see a blowout? I like seeing like

1651
01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:47,960
Speaker 6: close games and stuff like that. So thank you for

1652
01:23:48,040 --> 01:23:50,480
Speaker 6: your time, Appreciate you guys, and go Bills.

1653
01:23:51,479 --> 01:23:55,760
Speaker 2: Thanks Ron. I'll let Steve handle the gun before, but.

1654
01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:58,040
Speaker 3: Yeah here I'll just go do it real quick. The

1655
01:23:58,120 --> 01:23:59,960
Speaker 3: reason the cake it's a different era in the NF

1656
01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:04,000
Speaker 3: fell and the reason the K gun was working for

1657
01:24:04,200 --> 01:24:06,760
Speaker 3: Jim Kelly and Thurman and those guys. First of all,

1658
01:24:06,960 --> 01:24:09,040
Speaker 3: they had four Hall of Fame maybe five Hall of

1659
01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:12,040
Speaker 3: Fame caliber players in the middle of that offense, James Lofton,

1660
01:24:12,360 --> 01:24:16,639
Speaker 3: Andre Jim Thurman, plus Kent Hull, who's that caliber of player.

1661
01:24:17,680 --> 01:24:20,880
Speaker 3: So they had those guys running it, which this just

1662
01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:23,080
Speaker 3: in Hall of Fame players all over your offense really

1663
01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:28,439
Speaker 3: helps your offense click. So there was that plus because

1664
01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:31,759
Speaker 3: those guys were such matchup problems, the Bills didn't weren't

1665
01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:35,800
Speaker 3: forced into changing their personnel in order to match up

1666
01:24:35,840 --> 01:24:39,280
Speaker 3: with the defense. They matched up automatically. They also was

1667
01:24:39,320 --> 01:24:41,800
Speaker 3: early in the it was nineteen nineties, so the three

1668
01:24:42,040 --> 01:24:47,880
Speaker 3: wide receiver set as a base offensive personnel group wasn't

1669
01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:51,080
Speaker 3: that common like it is now, So there was that,

1670
01:24:51,120 --> 01:24:54,600
Speaker 3: so teams weren't changing their rosters to match up with

1671
01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:56,479
Speaker 3: a three wide receiver set. They just did it as

1672
01:24:56,520 --> 01:25:00,200
Speaker 3: a specialty package. And then the Bills could also run

1673
01:25:00,240 --> 01:25:02,960
Speaker 3: and throw out of that. So they did all of that,

1674
01:25:03,040 --> 01:25:05,640
Speaker 3: and they they had such good players. They matched up

1675
01:25:05,680 --> 01:25:08,800
Speaker 3: so well no matter what defensive alignment the defense was into.

1676
01:25:10,280 --> 01:25:13,960
Speaker 3: They and then they went really fast as well, and

1677
01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:16,240
Speaker 3: they had the ability to get quick first downs and

1678
01:25:16,280 --> 01:25:19,360
Speaker 3: then keep the defense on the field, and they had

1679
01:25:19,400 --> 01:25:21,880
Speaker 3: a bunch of big defensive linemen who would lose the

1680
01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:24,800
Speaker 3: starch in the pass rush very quickly. After about four

1681
01:25:24,880 --> 01:25:28,639
Speaker 3: quick plays, they were gassed and all of a sudden,

1682
01:25:28,720 --> 01:25:32,240
Speaker 3: you started and they couldn't substitute because we were going

1683
01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:35,160
Speaker 3: so fast. So that all that has changed. Now the

1684
01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:38,439
Speaker 3: climate of the league is different. They want to find

1685
01:25:38,439 --> 01:25:41,720
Speaker 3: out as much as they can about the defense on

1686
01:25:41,800 --> 01:25:44,200
Speaker 3: the field, so they use motions and shifts and personnel

1687
01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:47,080
Speaker 3: things to get the defense to show what they're thinking

1688
01:25:47,560 --> 01:25:51,479
Speaker 3: by shifts and motions and the defensive adjustments pre snap.

1689
01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:53,479
Speaker 3: So that takes a long time. So that's just the

1690
01:25:53,520 --> 01:25:55,840
Speaker 3: opposite of what the KA gun used to be, and

1691
01:25:56,160 --> 01:25:57,800
Speaker 3: that's where the league is right now. So it's just

1692
01:25:57,840 --> 01:25:58,439
Speaker 3: a different time.

1693
01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:01,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I really can't use it to the same effectiveness nowadays.

1694
01:26:01,560 --> 01:26:03,639
Speaker 2: Got to take a break here. When we come back,

1764
01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:31,720
Speaker 17: there's a need, people rally around and step up and

1765
01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:33,400
Speaker 17: help out. And this is this is another one of

1766
01:29:33,439 --> 01:29:35,519
Speaker 17: those things. And and for us to be able to

1767
01:29:35,560 --> 01:29:38,120
Speaker 17: partner with the Buffalo Bills Foundation the proceeds from the

1768
01:29:38,160 --> 01:29:41,640
Speaker 17: fifty to fifty raffle for Monday's game, I mean, just

1769
01:29:41,720 --> 01:29:45,000
Speaker 17: all of that collectively, it just makes such a big impact.

1770
01:29:45,080 --> 01:29:47,760
Speaker 2: Which is a good point, Michelle, because if you if

1771
01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:49,639
Speaker 2: you don't even if you don't have a non perishable

1772
01:29:49,640 --> 01:29:51,320
Speaker 2: food item, you can still go down there and make

1773
01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:53,880
Speaker 2: a donation if you want it, right, absolutely, yeah, yeah,

1774
01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:57,320
Speaker 2: So they take monetary donations, yes, absolutely, yeah. I just

1775
01:29:57,320 --> 01:29:59,360
Speaker 2: wanted to make sure about that because I don't feed

1776
01:29:59,360 --> 01:30:01,960
Speaker 2: more Western New York. You know, some of the people

1777
01:30:02,040 --> 01:30:04,040
Speaker 2: in our building, we go down there and volunteer a

1778
01:30:04,040 --> 01:30:07,360
Speaker 2: few times a year during different times of the calendar year.

1779
01:30:07,520 --> 01:30:12,599
Speaker 2: And it's it's really startling to understand that the childhood

1780
01:30:12,680 --> 01:30:15,320
Speaker 2: hunger problem is right here in our own backyard. I

1781
01:30:15,320 --> 01:30:18,000
Speaker 2: think people, you know, when I was growing up, UNICEF

1782
01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:21,600
Speaker 2: was a big thing, and they're usually helping hunger overseas

1783
01:30:21,720 --> 01:30:24,840
Speaker 2: or in some destitute third world country, But hunger is

1784
01:30:24,880 --> 01:30:26,280
Speaker 2: a real issue right here in Western New York. I

1785
01:30:26,320 --> 01:30:27,520
Speaker 2: don't know if how many people.

1786
01:30:27,280 --> 01:30:30,120
Speaker 17: Truly realize right it is it is and and you know,

1787
01:30:30,520 --> 01:30:33,840
Speaker 17: the food that's collected today will help, you know, help

1788
01:30:33,880 --> 01:30:37,680
Speaker 17: people in four counties that that feed more serves. So

1789
01:30:37,680 --> 01:30:39,920
Speaker 17: so we know that that you know, we we know

1790
01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:41,639
Speaker 17: where the food is going, we know where the funds

1791
01:30:41,640 --> 01:30:44,559
Speaker 17: are going. So so we just encourage everyone to come

1792
01:30:44,600 --> 01:30:44,960
Speaker 17: out today.

1793
01:30:46,960 --> 01:30:48,240

1835

1838
01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:44,360
Speaker 2: going to be taking in the Monday Night Football atmosphere

1839
01:33:44,400 --> 01:33:47,479
Speaker 2: here in Orchard Park next week because he is doing

1840
01:33:47,520 --> 01:33:51,160
Speaker 2: the game on ESPN, calling the game with his good

1841
01:33:51,160 --> 01:33:55,400
Speaker 2: friends and partners Lewis Riddick and Chris Fowler. So, Dan,

1842
01:33:55,520 --> 01:33:57,760
Speaker 2: we will welcome you to Western New York with open

1843
01:33:57,880 --> 01:34:01,280
Speaker 2: arms early next week. But how does this game grab

1844
01:34:01,320 --> 01:34:04,040
Speaker 2: you at first? Blush? Because you look at the Bills.

1845
01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:06,800
Speaker 2: They are on a seven game winning streak, stretching back

1846
01:34:06,840 --> 01:34:09,960
Speaker 2: to last season in terms of regular season outings, and

1847
01:34:10,560 --> 01:34:13,559
Speaker 2: the Jags are the exact opposite. They've lost seven in

1848
01:34:13,560 --> 01:34:16,360
Speaker 2: a row. They are struggling mightily, and we know how

1849
01:34:16,400 --> 01:34:18,920
Speaker 2: the NFL can turn on a dime, but still in

1850
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:21,400
Speaker 2: all the Jags are trying to find themselves right now.

1851
01:34:22,560 --> 01:34:25,120
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean, that's the big kind of expectation and

1852
01:34:25,240 --> 01:34:28,439
Speaker 19: storyline going into Monday Night is you know, we all

1853
01:34:28,479 --> 01:34:30,920
Speaker 19: know kind of what the statistics are for a team

1854
01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:34,080
Speaker 19: that starts the season zho and two and certainly starts

1855
01:34:34,080 --> 01:34:36,360
Speaker 19: at oh to three. And I think the Jags are

1856
01:34:36,360 --> 01:34:38,759
Speaker 19: trying to find themselves a little bit, trying to find

1857
01:34:39,120 --> 01:34:41,680
Speaker 19: you know, identity on certainly on the offensive side of

1858
01:34:41,680 --> 01:34:44,920
Speaker 19: the football, both in like a schematic identity of kind

1859
01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:46,920
Speaker 19: of who they can be with the people that they have,

1860
01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:50,600
Speaker 19: and also maybe just like a personality identity or you know,

1861
01:34:50,680 --> 01:34:53,719
Speaker 19: leadership identity, and then a little bit on their defense

1862
01:34:53,760 --> 01:34:56,320
Speaker 19: as well, like who's going to be that alpha personality.

1863
01:34:56,760 --> 01:35:01,000
Speaker 19: Luakander linebacker is a guy that's led the NFL tackles before.

1864
01:35:01,720 --> 01:35:05,080
Speaker 19: You know, Josh Allen the Jacksonville Josh Allen still a

1865
01:35:05,120 --> 01:35:07,479
Speaker 19: really good pass rusher. So I think they're just trying

1866
01:35:07,479 --> 01:35:09,479
Speaker 19: to figure out I mean, at the end of the day,

1867
01:35:09,479 --> 01:35:11,040
Speaker 19: it's trying to find a way to win a game

1868
01:35:11,200 --> 01:35:14,040
Speaker 19: that that kind of minimizes that a little bit as well.

1869
01:35:14,439 --> 01:35:16,280
Speaker 19: It's a little bit of the contrast, you know with

1870
01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:21,000
Speaker 19: Buffalo so impressive with I think they're very unapologetic at

1871
01:35:21,080 --> 01:35:23,040
Speaker 19: least offensively through two weeks of who.

1872
01:35:22,840 --> 01:35:23,559
Speaker 20: They are now.

1873
01:35:24,280 --> 01:35:27,160
Speaker 19: And I think on defense, you know, you sit there

1874
01:35:27,160 --> 01:35:31,280
Speaker 19: and go that that's really like a scouting department performance

1875
01:35:31,560 --> 01:35:34,960
Speaker 19: and an organizational performance, because you know, if you take

1876
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:38,360
Speaker 19: the twenty twenty two Buffalo Bills defensive roster and you

1877
01:35:38,439 --> 01:35:41,120
Speaker 19: compare it to kind of what we've seen transpire over

1878
01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:42,920
Speaker 19: the first two weeks, you would go, oh, my gosh,

1879
01:35:42,920 --> 01:35:46,120
Speaker 19: that defense has to stink with all the move lost

1880
01:35:46,320 --> 01:35:49,799
Speaker 19: lost pieces. And I think it's you know, like there's

1881
01:35:49,960 --> 01:35:55,759
Speaker 19: there's draft and develop and it certainly seems that one group,

1882
01:35:56,080 --> 01:35:59,760
Speaker 19: one organization, absolutely has done that and one's trying to

1883
01:35:59,800 --> 01:36:02,120
Speaker 19: make find their way and find their footing.

1884
01:36:01,800 --> 01:36:02,120
Speaker 20: On that.

1885
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:04,160
Speaker 2: Look.

1886
01:36:04,560 --> 01:36:07,280
Speaker 3: And Jacksonville it's not like Jacksonville's falling off the map.

1887
01:36:07,280 --> 01:36:09,759
Speaker 3: They've given up twenty points to the Dolphins and eighteen

1888
01:36:09,840 --> 01:36:12,200
Speaker 3: points to the Browns, but they haven't been able to

1889
01:36:12,240 --> 01:36:14,760
Speaker 3: outscore either one of those teams any on either of

1890
01:36:14,800 --> 01:36:18,840
Speaker 3: those first two sundays. So certainly their defense, you know,

1891
01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:21,720
Speaker 3: has not fallen off a cliff, but their offense, even

1892
01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:25,880
Speaker 3: with Trevor Lawrence, a guy who most teams will say, yeah,

1893
01:36:25,960 --> 01:36:29,280
Speaker 3: give us that guy, you know, they still are struggling

1894
01:36:29,320 --> 01:36:30,360
Speaker 3: to score points.

1895
01:36:31,560 --> 01:36:35,320
Speaker 19: Yeah, I think Steve so One kind of goes back

1896
01:36:35,360 --> 01:36:40,080
Speaker 19: to an identity of I can you know, like here's

1897
01:36:40,120 --> 01:36:44,759
Speaker 19: why the identity offensively matters. Okay, So how we start games?

1898
01:36:45,000 --> 01:36:48,080
Speaker 19: You know the first fifteen snaps. Your identity kind of

1899
01:36:48,160 --> 01:36:52,320
Speaker 19: shows itself in those moments. How do we get ourselves

1900
01:36:52,360 --> 01:36:54,360
Speaker 19: started well into this football game?

1901
01:36:54,640 --> 01:36:54,800
Speaker 7: You know?

1902
01:36:54,960 --> 01:36:58,640
Speaker 19: Is it a formation identity, a personnel identity? How we

1903
01:36:58,680 --> 01:37:01,160
Speaker 19: want to try to attack defense? His identity is it

1904
01:37:01,240 --> 01:37:03,800
Speaker 19: play action? Is it screens? Does it take shots? Like

1905
01:37:04,400 --> 01:37:06,000
Speaker 19: there's not a consistency in that.

1906
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:08,759
Speaker 20: For them, or it's hey, we're not in rhythm.

1907
01:37:08,840 --> 01:37:11,360
Speaker 19: We're struggling. The defense right now was winning. You know,

1908
01:37:11,400 --> 01:37:13,160
Speaker 19: what are the things or the people that we can

1909
01:37:13,200 --> 01:37:15,960
Speaker 19: rely on to get going. I don't think Jacksonville has

1910
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:17,360
Speaker 19: that right now or in.

1911
01:37:17,280 --> 01:37:18,559
Speaker 12: Those God have it moments.

1912
01:37:18,600 --> 01:37:20,640
Speaker 19: You know, it's late in the football game and we

1913
01:37:20,720 --> 01:37:23,720
Speaker 19: need a person or a play or a route or

1914
01:37:23,760 --> 01:37:27,880
Speaker 19: a throat to make to like give us our most confidence. Again,

1915
01:37:27,920 --> 01:37:29,960
Speaker 19: I don't think they have that right now. And I've

1916
01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:33,599
Speaker 19: loved Trevor. You know, Trevor is wildly talented and he's

1917
01:37:33,640 --> 01:37:36,640
Speaker 19: had so many highs in his football critical college and

1918
01:37:36,680 --> 01:37:40,320
Speaker 19: certainly in the NFL. And I like this offseason like

1919
01:37:40,800 --> 01:37:42,840
Speaker 19: he was expecting to take a jump this year. He

1920
01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:46,080
Speaker 19: really was last year moments and then health and you know,

1921
01:37:46,080 --> 01:37:48,479
Speaker 19: they're pretty talented to some of their skill position people,

1922
01:37:48,520 --> 01:37:50,120
Speaker 19: but they just haven't figured out how to get it

1923
01:37:50,160 --> 01:37:53,519
Speaker 19: all going together. And I don't think if you just

1924
01:37:53,600 --> 01:37:56,320
Speaker 19: asked me, like, what is the outside of the identity

1925
01:37:56,680 --> 01:38:00,280
Speaker 19: the offensively a main difference between these two teams is

1926
01:38:00,760 --> 01:38:03,799
Speaker 19: I really, in my heart believed that Buffalo is trending

1927
01:38:03,840 --> 01:38:09,160
Speaker 19: towards having a top ten, top eight offensive line, and

1928
01:38:09,760 --> 01:38:13,040
Speaker 19: I feel like Jacksonville is going the other direction when

1929
01:38:13,080 --> 01:38:15,720
Speaker 19: it comes to just how good the offensive line is.

1930
01:38:17,880 --> 01:38:20,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know that can obviously have a trickle

1931
01:38:20,479 --> 01:38:22,280
Speaker 2: down effect on everything else. I mean, you look at

1932
01:38:22,320 --> 01:38:25,479
Speaker 2: Trevor fifty one percent completion through the first two games,

1933
01:38:25,479 --> 01:38:28,439
Speaker 2: He's been sacked seven times. The sack percentage is thirty

1934
01:38:28,439 --> 01:38:32,120
Speaker 2: first in the league. His passer ratings eighty two, and

1935
01:38:32,160 --> 01:38:34,679
Speaker 2: in his last seven starts all losses by the way,

1936
01:38:35,040 --> 01:38:38,080
Speaker 2: sixteen touchdowns, fifteen picks. Like, I don't want to put

1937
01:38:38,080 --> 01:38:42,479
Speaker 2: it all on Trevor, and I thought going into the

1938
01:38:42,560 --> 01:38:46,479
Speaker 2: year they would be a solid running team to help

1939
01:38:46,760 --> 01:38:50,040
Speaker 2: maybe take some of the heat off of Trevor. And

1940
01:38:50,240 --> 01:38:53,840
Speaker 2: I like Bigsby and Etn as a combo. I'd fully

1941
01:38:53,840 --> 01:38:55,559
Speaker 2: expect them to come in here and try to run

1942
01:38:55,600 --> 01:38:57,920
Speaker 2: the ball to maybe take some of that heat off

1943
01:38:57,920 --> 01:38:58,960
Speaker 2: Trevor on Monday night.

1944
01:39:00,280 --> 01:39:03,040
Speaker 19: Yeah, I agree, but both backs are really good, and

1945
01:39:03,080 --> 01:39:04,840
Speaker 19: I actually like when they run the football out of

1946
01:39:04,840 --> 01:39:06,560
Speaker 19: their two and three tight end packages.

1947
01:39:07,800 --> 01:39:11,160
Speaker 20: You know, week one, ETN fumbles on the one yard

1948
01:39:11,160 --> 01:39:13,200
Speaker 20: line or it's gonna be twenty four to seven Jacksonville's

1949
01:39:13,360 --> 01:39:13,880
Speaker 20: games over.

1950
01:39:14,160 --> 01:39:18,519
Speaker 19: So obviously that's a massive kind of singular moment that

1951
01:39:18,600 --> 01:39:21,880
Speaker 19: has tremendous impact on sitting there zero and two. The

1952
01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:26,559
Speaker 19: tough part is, the dicey part will be this Monday

1953
01:39:26,640 --> 01:39:28,959
Speaker 19: if they come in here and say we're gonna.

1954
01:39:28,800 --> 01:39:32,120
Speaker 20: Run the football specifically on early downs and they're unsuccessful,

1955
01:39:32,120 --> 01:39:34,559
Speaker 20: because I thought, I mean, just let's be honest.

1956
01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:36,800
Speaker 19: You know, Williams and Spector and Jones, and they were

1957
01:39:36,800 --> 01:39:38,520
Speaker 19: really good on Monday.

1958
01:39:38,280 --> 01:39:39,639
Speaker 20: Night last week or Thursday night.

1959
01:39:39,640 --> 01:39:43,480
Speaker 19: Excuse me, you do not want either of those tackles

1960
01:39:44,000 --> 01:39:47,040
Speaker 19: single blocking Rousseau and or Vaughn right now.

1961
01:39:47,280 --> 01:39:49,760
Speaker 20: I think the way that Buffalo is handling. Vaughn is

1962
01:39:49,800 --> 01:39:50,400
Speaker 20: really smart.

1963
01:39:50,479 --> 01:39:52,479
Speaker 19: I think Greg is really starting to show himself and

1964
01:39:52,600 --> 01:39:55,679
Speaker 19: obviously at another big game. So it's gonna be really

1965
01:39:55,800 --> 01:39:59,160
Speaker 19: interesting to watch how they handle Jacksonville offensively some of

1966
01:39:59,200 --> 01:40:03,560
Speaker 19: those early downs, because if they get into those obvious situations,

1967
01:40:04,320 --> 01:40:08,040
Speaker 19: I do think that that defensive line with Again, it's

1968
01:40:08,080 --> 01:40:10,280
Speaker 19: two weeks into the season, but I do think that

1969
01:40:10,360 --> 01:40:13,760
Speaker 19: defensive line is starting to kind of show itself when

1970
01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:17,960
Speaker 19: it gets to add epinesa, Greg and Vaughan in some

1971
01:40:18,040 --> 01:40:20,600
Speaker 19: of those obvious past situations.

1972
01:40:22,080 --> 01:40:24,880
Speaker 3: So when you get to that to that point, and

1973
01:40:24,920 --> 01:40:26,799
Speaker 3: I know it's early and a lot of stuff happens,

1974
01:40:26,800 --> 01:40:30,040
Speaker 3: and we still don't know if Buffalo has kind of

1975
01:40:30,040 --> 01:40:34,160
Speaker 3: got an adrenaline shot from you know, from the guy

1976
01:40:34,240 --> 01:40:36,920
Speaker 3: the backups coming into play, and whether they'll settle back

1977
01:40:36,920 --> 01:40:39,040
Speaker 3: in and maybe they're gonna find a different level than

1978
01:40:39,080 --> 01:40:42,160
Speaker 3: they showed against the Dolphins. But if the Buffalo Bill's

1979
01:40:42,200 --> 01:40:45,920
Speaker 3: defense shows up like it did, does what does Jacksonville

1980
01:40:46,040 --> 01:40:50,400
Speaker 3: have if their offensive line has struggled, what does Jacksonville

1981
01:40:50,439 --> 01:40:52,439
Speaker 3: have that may be able to take advantage of some

1982
01:40:52,479 --> 01:40:55,000
Speaker 3: of the backups or some of the guys that may

1983
01:40:55,000 --> 01:40:58,240
Speaker 3: have shown out of the box really quick for Bill's defense,

1984
01:40:59,439 --> 01:41:03,240
Speaker 3: but may not be their talent wise or whatever going

1985
01:41:03,280 --> 01:41:05,400
Speaker 3: down coming down the stretch. I mean, what's Jacksonville looking

1986
01:41:05,400 --> 01:41:06,879
Speaker 3: at when you look at this Bill's defense?

1987
01:41:07,439 --> 01:41:09,840
Speaker 19: Yeah, Steve, I would simply say this, living in I

1988
01:41:09,920 --> 01:41:13,760
Speaker 19: don't know what Terren's you know, foreshadow or forecast is

1989
01:41:13,800 --> 01:41:16,559
Speaker 19: for Monday night. I would say this if you just

1990
01:41:16,640 --> 01:41:20,160
Speaker 19: took Taran and you took obviously Milano, but now Terrell,

1991
01:41:21,280 --> 01:41:24,080
Speaker 19: like that second level of their defense, You're gonna have

1992
01:41:24,120 --> 01:41:26,120
Speaker 19: to prove to me that you can handle a lot

1993
01:41:26,160 --> 01:41:28,320
Speaker 19: to look at that. You're gonna have to prove to

1994
01:41:28,360 --> 01:41:30,760
Speaker 19: me that you can handle a different personnel. And I'm

1995
01:41:30,800 --> 01:41:32,880
Speaker 19: gonna set a formation, then I'm gonna shift the guy,

1996
01:41:32,920 --> 01:41:34,439
Speaker 19: and then I'm a motion a guy, and you're gonna

1997
01:41:34,479 --> 01:41:36,679
Speaker 19: have to prove to me that you can handle all

1998
01:41:36,720 --> 01:41:38,840
Speaker 19: that you have to look at. You got to get

1999
01:41:38,840 --> 01:41:42,439
Speaker 19: into the right communication of who's gotta beware and leverage.

2000
01:41:42,520 --> 01:41:44,599
Speaker 19: I want to see if you can handle different action

2001
01:41:44,760 --> 01:41:48,000
Speaker 19: post snap like, I would stress that unit a ton

2002
01:41:48,320 --> 01:41:51,639
Speaker 19: and maybe it doesn't equal you know, big throws down

2003
01:41:51,640 --> 01:41:55,439
Speaker 19: the field, but I would make that group constantly think

2004
01:41:55,600 --> 01:42:00,320
Speaker 19: and constantly communicate with all of those different looks me

2005
01:42:00,400 --> 01:42:02,920
Speaker 19: tried to and credit them they and I thought they

2006
01:42:03,000 --> 01:42:05,160
Speaker 19: tackled really well in space. I think that's one of

2007
01:42:05,160 --> 01:42:09,479
Speaker 19: the things defensively that's been very impressive about that unit.

2008
01:42:09,520 --> 01:42:10,559
Speaker 20: No matter who's been out there, is.

2009
01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:13,120
Speaker 19: They've tackled well in space, man, and that matters in

2010
01:42:13,160 --> 01:42:16,160
Speaker 19: today's NFL where some you know, some teams are struggling

2011
01:42:16,200 --> 01:42:17,240
Speaker 19: a little bit in that regard.

2012
01:42:17,320 --> 01:42:20,320
Speaker 20: So that's how I would try to get after them.

2013
01:42:20,360 --> 01:42:23,360
Speaker 19: I think the secondary's played good football, I really do.

2014
01:42:24,760 --> 01:42:25,040
Speaker 2: I would.

2015
01:42:25,120 --> 01:42:27,240
Speaker 20: I would try to go after that second level unit.

2016
01:42:29,240 --> 01:42:31,640
Speaker 2: And speaking of that, Dan, I had a question for

2017
01:42:31,680 --> 01:42:34,519
Speaker 2: you just from your your playing day's perspective. I don't

2018
01:42:34,560 --> 01:42:37,880
Speaker 2: know if you've ever had the opportunity, but you know,

2019
01:42:37,960 --> 01:42:43,040
Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence and Buffalo's presumed starting middle linebacker Baile Inspector

2020
01:42:43,040 --> 01:42:45,400
Speaker 2: where teammates at Clemson. I mean, they went against each

2021
01:42:45,400 --> 01:42:48,240
Speaker 2: other in practice year after year after year after year.

2022
01:42:48,920 --> 01:42:52,280
Speaker 2: How much of an advantage might that give Trevor knowing

2023
01:42:52,400 --> 01:42:56,800
Speaker 2: what Baile Inspector's strengths and maybe perceived weaknesses are, and

2024
01:42:57,160 --> 01:43:00,759
Speaker 2: how can he help maybe coach Peterson and maybe trying

2025
01:43:00,840 --> 01:43:04,479
Speaker 2: to get him in you know, a situation that may

2026
01:43:04,520 --> 01:43:06,000
Speaker 2: not play to specter strengths.

2027
01:43:06,880 --> 01:43:09,559
Speaker 19: Yeah, I don't think that there's anything that probably Trevor

2028
01:43:09,640 --> 01:43:13,200
Speaker 19: knows play wise that's not obvious on tape there. And

2029
01:43:13,479 --> 01:43:17,880
Speaker 19: there's not really a ton of tape on Bailing, you know,

2030
01:43:17,960 --> 01:43:22,400
Speaker 19: so there's there's some Trevor you know, what are you

2031
01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:25,920
Speaker 19: gonna say, Man, he really struggles with you know, zone coverage.

2032
01:43:26,200 --> 01:43:27,920
Speaker 20: You're probably seeing that on tape if you.

2033
01:43:27,920 --> 01:43:30,639
Speaker 19: Felt that way, or he really, you know, is really

2034
01:43:30,680 --> 01:43:34,720
Speaker 19: aggressive player, so we can use misdirection to our strengths.

2035
01:43:34,800 --> 01:43:37,799
Speaker 20: But again, you're probably watching that on your own scouting reports.

2036
01:43:37,800 --> 01:43:39,880
Speaker 19: So I don't think that there's anything you know, because

2037
01:43:39,920 --> 01:43:42,400
Speaker 19: I've been on teams, you know, I've gone from one

2038
01:43:42,439 --> 01:43:44,600
Speaker 19: team to another in Division.

2039
01:43:44,720 --> 01:43:47,400
Speaker 20: I was down in Houston and I got cut.

2040
01:43:47,200 --> 01:43:49,080
Speaker 19: At the end of camp and went to Indy and

2041
01:43:49,160 --> 01:43:51,479
Speaker 19: I remember sitting there and they're like, hey, you know,

2042
01:43:51,560 --> 01:43:52,720
Speaker 19: what do they like to do?

2043
01:43:52,800 --> 01:43:55,240
Speaker 20: And give us stuff on these guys And I'd.

2044
01:43:55,080 --> 01:43:56,960
Speaker 19: Be like, man, they really want to run, you know,

2045
01:43:57,040 --> 01:43:59,160
Speaker 19: towards the three techniques in this set, and they're like, yeah,

2046
01:43:59,240 --> 01:44:01,599
Speaker 19: we kind of know that, and you know we're really.

2047
01:44:01,479 --> 01:44:03,679
Speaker 20: The back's gonna read this type of block. I'm like, yeah,

2048
01:44:03,720 --> 01:44:04,040
Speaker 20: we know that.

2049
01:44:04,080 --> 01:44:06,160
Speaker 19: I'm like, man, this defensive tack and they're like, yeah,

2050
01:44:06,200 --> 01:44:08,719
Speaker 19: so a lot. There's a lot of smart football people,

2051
01:44:08,800 --> 01:44:10,280
Speaker 19: you know, in the NFL. So I don't think that

2052
01:44:10,280 --> 01:44:13,320
Speaker 19: there's anything that's going to be that significant that can

2053
01:44:13,360 --> 01:44:13,880
Speaker 19: get shared.

2054
01:44:15,880 --> 01:44:20,680
Speaker 3: What do you think I mean about this matchup? And

2055
01:44:20,680 --> 01:44:25,559
Speaker 3: when you get into this game about Jacksonville Buffalo, what

2056
01:44:25,680 --> 01:44:28,840
Speaker 3: will it take for Jacksonville to bust this huge slump there?

2057
01:44:28,840 --> 01:44:31,240
Speaker 3: I mean, they've lost seven straight games going into last year,

2058
01:44:31,240 --> 01:44:33,439
Speaker 3: and I know that this year's team is a different

2059
01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:35,880
Speaker 3: is a different animal than the last year's team at

2060
01:44:35,880 --> 01:44:37,760
Speaker 3: the end of the season with just like Buffalo's is.

2061
01:44:37,800 --> 01:44:39,639
Speaker 3: But man, oh man, that's kind of start to wear

2062
01:44:40,479 --> 01:44:43,360
Speaker 3: on the organization, even if it doesn't wear on the

2063
01:44:43,400 --> 01:44:44,000
Speaker 3: locker room.

2064
01:44:45,479 --> 01:44:47,599
Speaker 20: Yeah. I mean, they hit some big plays in their

2065
01:44:47,640 --> 01:44:49,719
Speaker 20: pass game down the field in both games.

2066
01:44:49,760 --> 01:44:51,880
Speaker 19: I mean really, that's the only thing they did well

2067
01:44:51,960 --> 01:44:56,640
Speaker 19: versus Cleveland. Now, Cleveland's defensively very good unit, so but

2068
01:44:56,720 --> 01:44:58,680
Speaker 19: they hit some big throws down the field to their

2069
01:44:58,760 --> 01:45:01,280
Speaker 19: rookie wide receiver Brian Thomas junior out of LSU.

2070
01:45:01,360 --> 01:45:03,679
Speaker 20: He's a really, really big time player.

2071
01:45:04,280 --> 01:45:06,720
Speaker 19: They had two or three big time throws down the

2072
01:45:06,720 --> 01:45:09,120
Speaker 19: field to Christian Kirking week one that he dropped. So

2073
01:45:09,760 --> 01:45:12,439
Speaker 19: I think that like they're searching to try to create

2074
01:45:12,520 --> 01:45:16,599
Speaker 19: big plays on offense and create big chunks and explosive plays,

2075
01:45:17,040 --> 01:45:19,120
Speaker 19: and those are the two guys that it seems most

2076
01:45:19,200 --> 01:45:20,880
Speaker 19: comfortable in getting to.

2077
01:45:21,120 --> 01:45:22,720
Speaker 20: You know, gave Davis obviously, you.

2078
01:45:22,680 --> 01:45:25,599
Speaker 19: Guys know him well, has not found footing there yet.

2079
01:45:25,920 --> 01:45:28,800
Speaker 19: Now that might be a guy to your question of

2080
01:45:28,920 --> 01:45:31,160
Speaker 19: knowledge and whatnot. That might be a guy that you

2081
01:45:31,200 --> 01:45:33,240
Speaker 19: sit there and go. He probably has a little bit

2082
01:45:33,280 --> 01:45:36,400
Speaker 19: more intimate details of how defensively they might try to

2083
01:45:36,840 --> 01:45:40,760
Speaker 19: handle certain bunches or stacks or formations or motions or

2084
01:45:41,080 --> 01:45:44,439
Speaker 19: you know, Razul's really aggressive in these situations, or if

2085
01:45:44,439 --> 01:45:46,720
Speaker 19: I give him this, you know he might sit on

2086
01:45:46,760 --> 01:45:48,760
Speaker 19: it and so we could take advantage of that. Or

2087
01:45:49,040 --> 01:45:51,040
Speaker 19: you know, I think that's probably a guy that has

2088
01:45:51,040 --> 01:45:53,439
Speaker 19: a little bit more information and Buffalo will have to

2089
01:45:53,479 --> 01:45:55,920
Speaker 19: be aware of that. But you know, they're really trying

2090
01:45:55,920 --> 01:45:58,479
Speaker 19: to find ways to push the ball downfield.

2091
01:45:57,920 --> 01:46:01,680
Speaker 20: To kind of generate easy for their offense. They'll need

2092
01:46:01,720 --> 01:46:05,559
Speaker 20: to do that, all right.

2093
01:46:05,439 --> 01:46:08,439
Speaker 2: And then I know you already mentioned Buffalo's offensive line

2094
01:46:08,479 --> 01:46:11,360
Speaker 2: but you know, through two games, and I know it's

2095
01:46:11,360 --> 01:46:16,200
Speaker 2: a small sample, but Buffalo fifty seven percent run in

2096
01:46:16,280 --> 01:46:18,880
Speaker 2: their first two games, which is five percent higher than

2097
01:46:18,880 --> 01:46:21,040
Speaker 2: it was down the stretch under Brady when he was

2098
01:46:21,040 --> 01:46:24,880
Speaker 2: still the Innramo see last year. Again, small sample size,

2099
01:46:24,920 --> 01:46:27,840
Speaker 2: but what do you make of that? And then where

2100
01:46:27,840 --> 01:46:31,639
Speaker 2: do you think that can take James Cook's production, knowing

2101
01:46:31,680 --> 01:46:34,679
Speaker 2: he was a sixteen hundred all purpose yard guy last year.

2102
01:46:36,240 --> 01:46:38,479
Speaker 20: I just think it's great discipline by Joe Brady.

2103
01:46:38,640 --> 01:46:41,200
Speaker 19: You know, it's it's easy to say, it's easy to

2104
01:46:41,200 --> 01:46:42,720
Speaker 19: sit there and say, if teams are going to play

2105
01:46:42,800 --> 01:46:45,479
Speaker 19: us this way, we got to we gotta kind of

2106
01:46:45,520 --> 01:46:49,240
Speaker 19: force the issue and without being becoming impatient. I watch

2107
01:46:49,280 --> 01:46:51,000
Speaker 19: it all the time in the NFL, where you know,

2108
01:46:51,080 --> 01:46:54,160
Speaker 19: coaches teams are playing in like a two shell defense,

2109
01:46:54,240 --> 01:46:56,760
Speaker 19: or they're playing in Nickel tur year twelve, and you know,

2110
01:46:56,840 --> 01:46:58,559
Speaker 19: teams run the ball for three or four plays in

2111
01:46:58,560 --> 01:46:59,960
Speaker 19: a row, and then it gets the second and zeven

2112
01:47:00,040 --> 01:47:01,439
Speaker 19: and we got to pass the ball and like no,

2113
01:47:01,520 --> 01:47:04,519
Speaker 19: you don't, you know, like make them stop it. And

2114
01:47:04,560 --> 01:47:07,960
Speaker 19: so I think it's just good discipline by Joe Brady.

2115
01:47:08,400 --> 01:47:11,280
Speaker 19: I also think, you know, watching them play in a

2116
01:47:11,320 --> 01:47:14,080
Speaker 19: little bit. I think their offensive line is just really

2117
01:47:14,120 --> 01:47:16,720
Speaker 19: starting to control the line of scrimmage. I don't know

2118
01:47:16,760 --> 01:47:18,600
Speaker 19: if it still holds two after week two, but I

2119
01:47:18,640 --> 01:47:21,560
Speaker 19: think ever since Joe took over, no one's run the

2120
01:47:21,600 --> 01:47:26,519
Speaker 19: football more than Buffalo when it comes to attempted runs.

2121
01:47:27,760 --> 01:47:31,599
Speaker 19: And I just think that's, you know, one obviously allowed

2122
01:47:31,600 --> 01:47:34,040
Speaker 19: the offensive line to try to control the game too.

2123
01:47:34,160 --> 01:47:36,559
Speaker 19: I think it frees them up in their past protection too,

2124
01:47:36,600 --> 01:47:39,800
Speaker 19: because when you do that, it forces defensive linemen to

2125
01:47:39,880 --> 01:47:41,080
Speaker 19: play two dimensional.

2126
01:47:41,640 --> 01:47:44,599
Speaker 20: You don't allow them to play one dimensional. So that's

2127
01:47:44,640 --> 01:47:45,599
Speaker 20: advantage offense.

2128
01:47:45,960 --> 01:47:49,120
Speaker 19: Obviously, It's allowed Josh to become more comfortable in some pockets.

2129
01:47:49,160 --> 01:47:51,360
Speaker 20: So I just think the discipline by.

2130
01:47:51,280 --> 01:47:55,720
Speaker 19: Joe of you know, not getting too cute, it has

2131
01:47:55,760 --> 01:47:57,280
Speaker 19: been a big deal and it'll matter.

2132
01:47:57,960 --> 01:48:00,719
Speaker 20: Jacksonville's a good defense like this, won't you a cakewalk.

2133
01:48:00,760 --> 01:48:02,960
Speaker 20: In my opinion, for Buffalo offensive, they got good.

2134
01:48:02,800 --> 01:48:06,480
Speaker 19: Front, they got good backers, speed, Campbell being out minimizes

2135
01:48:06,479 --> 01:48:06,880
Speaker 19: a little bit.

2136
01:48:06,920 --> 01:48:10,439
Speaker 20: Ryan Nielsen. Their defensive coordinators really good, really smart, came

2137
01:48:10,439 --> 01:48:11,559
Speaker 20: from Atlanta last year.

2138
01:48:11,600 --> 01:48:14,720
Speaker 19: It's gonna give Josh a bunch of different looks, so

2139
01:48:14,840 --> 01:48:17,080
Speaker 19: it'll present a good challenge.

2140
01:48:18,240 --> 01:48:20,000
Speaker 3: One of the things we knew this offense was gonna

2141
01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:22,400
Speaker 3: look different for Buffalo, but it also Dan, I gotta

2142
01:48:22,400 --> 01:48:23,680
Speaker 3: say it, and for lack of a better way to

2143
01:48:23,680 --> 01:48:26,400
Speaker 3: put it, it feels different. In two games he had

2144
01:48:26,479 --> 01:48:29,080
Speaker 3: Josh kind of go off. He had two throwing touchdowns

2145
01:48:29,120 --> 01:48:31,320
Speaker 3: to rushing touchdowns a week one, and then you have

2146
01:48:31,439 --> 01:48:34,200
Speaker 3: James Cook three touchdowns in the first half, and it

2147
01:48:34,240 --> 01:48:37,040
Speaker 3: feels like Keon Coleman he had not to you know,

2148
01:48:37,120 --> 01:48:39,559
Speaker 3: haven't asked him to do anything. Curtis Sander, we haven't

2149
01:48:39,600 --> 01:48:42,760
Speaker 3: even asked him to do anything. Kinkaid was completely put

2150
01:48:42,800 --> 01:48:45,240
Speaker 3: taken off the radar by Arizona. They doubled him, they

2151
01:48:45,240 --> 01:48:47,880
Speaker 3: tripled him, they made sure kN Kaid didn't beat him.

2152
01:48:47,920 --> 01:48:52,160
Speaker 3: So he hasn't been asked to do much. And these

2153
01:48:52,160 --> 01:48:55,920
Speaker 3: weapons like, isn't this the beauty of the offense?

2154
01:48:56,000 --> 01:48:57,760
Speaker 20: Though I don't mean to catch you off right.

2155
01:48:57,680 --> 01:49:02,920
Speaker 3: Isn't that That's why we're asking exactly, And that's why

2156
01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:06,640
Speaker 3: it's it feels weird because there's really no you know,

2157
01:49:06,680 --> 01:49:09,639
Speaker 3: they feel like they haven't even shifted into gear and.

2158
01:49:09,600 --> 01:49:11,880
Speaker 2: They're two and zero and thirty on people.

2159
01:49:11,920 --> 01:49:13,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're hanging thirty on people and they don't even

2160
01:49:13,960 --> 01:49:15,880
Speaker 3: feel like they've put it into gear yet.

2161
01:49:17,080 --> 01:49:20,200
Speaker 19: The best way I describe it is, again I've talked

2162
01:49:20,200 --> 01:49:22,920
Speaker 19: about their run game, right, but in relation to the

2163
01:49:22,960 --> 01:49:26,400
Speaker 19: past game, the defense tells Josh where to throw the

2164
01:49:26,439 --> 01:49:28,920
Speaker 19: ball now, And this isn't a shot at Steph, like

2165
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:30,680
Speaker 19: it was right to go about it the way that

2166
01:49:30,720 --> 01:49:32,880
Speaker 19: they did when they had Steph was that was the

2167
01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:35,760
Speaker 19: right thing to do. But it does for you up

2168
01:49:35,800 --> 01:49:39,120
Speaker 19: to just okay, this is the play call, you know,

2169
01:49:39,160 --> 01:49:41,519
Speaker 19: and the defense tells me where to throw the football.

2170
01:49:41,520 --> 01:49:44,200
Speaker 19: And maybe I'm not thinking about something a little bit more.

2171
01:49:44,360 --> 01:49:47,360
Speaker 19: I'm and I'm trusting and reacting to things just a

2172
01:49:47,400 --> 01:49:49,559
Speaker 19: little bit more. And you've got all these different guys

2173
01:49:49,600 --> 01:49:52,439
Speaker 19: that you can utilize in a bunch of different ways.

2174
01:49:52,520 --> 01:49:56,719
Speaker 19: And okay, defense, if if you hear like it's always

2175
01:49:57,280 --> 01:49:58,280
Speaker 19: you know, Tiger.

2176
01:49:57,960 --> 01:49:59,880
Speaker 20: Woods was the greatest goal forever because you.

2177
01:49:59,800 --> 01:50:02,519
Speaker 19: Can beat people when he had a C game and like,

2178
01:50:02,600 --> 01:50:05,439
Speaker 19: can your offense be good on their C player? You know,

2179
01:50:05,479 --> 01:50:08,439
Speaker 19: like can your offense be good? You know, asking your

2180
01:50:08,560 --> 01:50:12,280
Speaker 19: C or D player to be impactful? And that's the

2181
01:50:12,720 --> 01:50:17,679
Speaker 19: beauty of where this offense is is the foundation gives

2182
01:50:17,680 --> 01:50:20,679
Speaker 19: it a chance because the offensive line has become so strong.

2183
01:50:21,240 --> 01:50:23,760
Speaker 20: Well, then you have all these pieces and it's like, well,

2184
01:50:23,800 --> 01:50:25,640
Speaker 20: take away A and takeaway B and takeaway C.

2185
01:50:26,400 --> 01:50:28,559
Speaker 19: My D player can can be a really you know,

2186
01:50:28,600 --> 01:50:30,559
Speaker 19: one week it might be Dalton, one might be might

2187
01:50:30,600 --> 01:50:33,320
Speaker 19: be Dawson, one might be Shakir, one might be James.

2188
01:50:33,320 --> 01:50:35,920
Speaker 19: Doesn't mean that their talent is C or D player,

2189
01:50:36,560 --> 01:50:39,400
Speaker 19: they're just that C or D option maybe in that

2190
01:50:39,439 --> 01:50:40,599
Speaker 19: player in that game.

2191
01:50:43,200 --> 01:50:45,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, well said, Well said Dan. And look, the Jags

2192
01:50:45,960 --> 01:50:48,080
Speaker 2: have been a little bit of a bugaboo opponent for

2193
01:50:48,120 --> 01:50:50,040
Speaker 2: the Bills. They've lost each of their last two games

2194
01:50:50,080 --> 01:50:52,960
Speaker 2: against them. Back in twenty one, flying High, they lose

2195
01:50:53,000 --> 01:50:55,719
Speaker 2: a game down there under urban Meyer nine to six,

2196
01:50:56,080 --> 01:50:59,720
Speaker 2: could not do anything offensively. And then last year and

2197
01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:03,679
Speaker 2: hot in them in London, you know, they get behind,

2198
01:51:03,720 --> 01:51:06,439
Speaker 2: they lose twenty five twenty and they only average two

2199
01:51:06,479 --> 01:51:09,439
Speaker 2: point one yards per carry as that defensive front which

2200
01:51:09,439 --> 01:51:12,360
Speaker 2: you already mentioned, really stifled them. Now, I want to

2201
01:51:12,400 --> 01:51:14,680
Speaker 2: believe they're a better running team now under Brady than

2202
01:51:14,720 --> 01:51:18,320
Speaker 2: they were at that time still under Dorsey. But don't

2203
01:51:18,360 --> 01:51:20,719
Speaker 2: think for a second that Bills fans aren't hyper aware

2204
01:51:20,720 --> 01:51:22,559
Speaker 2: of the fact that the Jags have been a little

2205
01:51:22,600 --> 01:51:25,439
Speaker 2: bit of a buggaboo opponent against them.

2206
01:51:25,640 --> 01:51:26,320
Speaker 20: Yeah, totally.

2207
01:51:26,920 --> 01:51:30,360
Speaker 19: And I think you know Josh that I remember that

2208
01:51:30,479 --> 01:51:32,760
Speaker 19: game two years ago when Josh did not play well

2209
01:51:32,840 --> 01:51:35,800
Speaker 19: and tried to do way too much and kind of

2210
01:51:35,920 --> 01:51:38,439
Speaker 19: got above his skis a little bit. I think that

2211
01:51:38,479 --> 01:51:42,559
Speaker 19: the balance in this offense is significantly better, The lack

2212
01:51:42,600 --> 01:51:46,200
Speaker 19: of predictability in this offense is significantly better. I think

2213
01:51:46,240 --> 01:51:49,160
Speaker 19: the awareness of who they are is significantly better.

2214
01:51:49,200 --> 01:51:52,120
Speaker 20: So again, it's gonna be a good challenge. I totally

2215
01:51:52,160 --> 01:51:52,720
Speaker 20: believe that.

2216
01:51:53,120 --> 01:51:55,800
Speaker 19: I think that they're more equipped to handle it offensively.

2217
01:51:56,040 --> 01:51:59,200
Speaker 19: That this game comes down to me, you know, how

2218
01:51:59,479 --> 01:52:02,320
Speaker 19: insists this defense can be, you know, because I do

2219
01:52:02,360 --> 01:52:05,080
Speaker 19: think Jacksonville is too talented offense to kind.

2220
01:52:04,880 --> 01:52:08,479
Speaker 20: Of stay stuck in the mud. So if this.

2221
01:52:08,439 --> 01:52:12,840
Speaker 19: Defense kind of continues to play at a above average level,

2222
01:52:13,160 --> 01:52:15,759
Speaker 19: I think Buffalo is good enough on offense to score.

2223
01:52:17,600 --> 01:52:19,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, Dan, you should get to the game a little

2224
01:52:19,640 --> 01:52:20,519
Speaker 3: early on Monday.

2225
01:52:20,560 --> 01:52:20,960
Speaker 2: We'll go out.

2226
01:52:20,960 --> 01:52:23,000
Speaker 3: We'll have a few pops in a cigar in the

2227
01:52:23,040 --> 01:52:24,920
Speaker 3: locker room, in the in the parking lot.

2228
01:52:25,040 --> 01:52:26,839
Speaker 2: It'll be fun. Yeah, looking forward.

2229
01:52:26,600 --> 01:52:29,400
Speaker 19: To know that's that's just what I need is a

2230
01:52:29,439 --> 01:52:33,040
Speaker 19: couple of Daddy SODA's pregame before doing. Last time I

2231
01:52:33,120 --> 01:52:37,519
Speaker 19: was there was the infamous like on TV, so I'm

2232
01:52:37,520 --> 01:52:38,920
Speaker 19: gonna try to avoid that one.

2233
01:52:40,320 --> 01:52:42,680
Speaker 2: All right, perfect, sounds good, Dan, We we'll see up

2234
01:52:42,680 --> 01:52:44,519
Speaker 2: in the broadcast booth. Have a safe travel in here

2235
01:52:44,520 --> 01:52:45,280
Speaker 2: to Western New York.

2236
01:52:46,040 --> 01:52:47,320
Speaker 20: All right, fellas, have a great week.

2237
01:52:48,640 --> 01:52:52,719
Speaker 2: All Right, you too. That's Dan Orlofski, ESPN NFL analyst.

2238
01:52:53,040 --> 01:52:55,720
Speaker 2: Nobody does it better. Uh so good to have him.

2239
01:52:55,760 --> 01:52:58,479
Speaker 2: And as we said, he'll be on the call on

2240
01:52:58,840 --> 01:53:02,719
Speaker 2: ESPN on Monday Night along with Lewis Ridick and Chris

2241
01:53:02,760 --> 01:53:07,519
Speaker 2: Fowler calling the action from high Mark Stadium Monday Night Football.

2242
01:53:07,640 --> 01:53:13,559
Speaker 2: Bills Jaguars. I don't know. I have trepidation about this

2243
01:53:13,640 --> 01:53:17,120
Speaker 2: one because anytime you see a team and look, I'm

2244
01:53:17,120 --> 01:53:19,160
Speaker 2: gonna be the first to tell you their defensive front

2245
01:53:19,240 --> 01:53:21,679
Speaker 2: is good. They've got first round picks all over the place.

2246
01:53:21,960 --> 01:53:24,879
Speaker 2: Trayvon Walker number one pick in the draft.

2247
01:53:24,680 --> 01:53:25,920
Speaker 3: Physically two years ago.

2248
01:53:26,160 --> 01:53:29,880
Speaker 2: They've got josh heinz Allen, who's always been a problem

2249
01:53:29,880 --> 01:53:32,839
Speaker 2: for this team. And then in free agency they grabbed

2250
01:53:32,960 --> 01:53:37,280
Speaker 2: Eric Armstead. He comes off the bench. I mean, those

2251
01:53:37,320 --> 01:53:40,479
Speaker 2: are three first round picks alone on their defensive line.

2252
01:53:40,520 --> 01:53:41,040
Speaker 2: That's right now.

2253
01:53:41,080 --> 01:53:44,320
Speaker 3: Their defensive front can be really good, and the Bills

2254
01:53:44,320 --> 01:53:46,720
Speaker 3: could still do okay against them. But the whole the

2255
01:53:46,760 --> 01:53:50,639
Speaker 3: thing for me is Jacksonville's desperate to win a game,

2256
01:53:51,200 --> 01:53:52,280
Speaker 3: desperate to win.

2257
01:53:52,160 --> 01:53:53,599
Speaker 2: A game, and that's a factor too.

2258
01:53:53,760 --> 01:53:55,559
Speaker 3: You have got some guys that are going to be

2259
01:53:55,880 --> 01:53:59,080
Speaker 3: off the charts, motivated not to be embarrassed on Monday

2260
01:53:59,160 --> 01:54:01,439
Speaker 3: Night football and to come out and show that they're

2261
01:54:01,479 --> 01:54:03,080
Speaker 3: better than the O and two and the better than

2262
01:54:03,120 --> 01:54:06,160
Speaker 3: the oh and five finish they had last year and

2263
01:54:06,200 --> 01:54:10,160
Speaker 3: all that stuff. So you're getting one of those teams

2264
01:54:10,560 --> 01:54:11,920
Speaker 3: with a lot of physical talent.

2265
01:54:12,000 --> 01:54:14,439
Speaker 2: They're going to be highly motivated. Those are hard to beat.

2266
01:54:15,120 --> 01:54:16,280
Speaker 2: They're really hard to beat.

2267
01:54:16,479 --> 01:54:19,040
Speaker 3: And and this has been a team that has been

2268
01:54:19,040 --> 01:54:22,920
Speaker 3: a matchup nightmare for Buffalo. Now, certainly Orlowski said, and

2269
01:54:22,960 --> 01:54:28,439
Speaker 3: he's right, they're better. They're significantly better at the fastest

2270
01:54:28,520 --> 01:54:30,680
Speaker 3: of their offense that they needed to be better at

2271
01:54:30,760 --> 01:54:33,280
Speaker 3: to be successful against Jacksonville. Josh is in a better

2272
01:54:33,320 --> 01:54:37,360
Speaker 3: spot mentally, they're more diverse, there's more ways to win

2273
01:54:37,440 --> 01:54:43,000
Speaker 3: against THEE. They're much better running team, They've got weapons,

2274
01:54:43,160 --> 01:54:45,320
Speaker 3: dispersed throughout their offense, and they can beat you with

2275
01:54:45,400 --> 01:54:48,200
Speaker 3: short pass, the long pass, the screen game, the run

2276
01:54:48,280 --> 01:54:52,760
Speaker 3: game with their quarterback. Any one of those facets of

2277
01:54:52,760 --> 01:54:55,400
Speaker 3: the offense can emerge and win the entire game, and

2278
01:54:55,680 --> 01:54:58,760
Speaker 3: you could be the lynch pin of the offense. So

2279
01:54:58,800 --> 01:55:01,080
Speaker 3: they That has not always been the case with this

2280
01:55:01,160 --> 01:55:04,840
Speaker 3: matchup with Jacksonville, but the matchup has always been in

2281
01:55:04,880 --> 01:55:09,120
Speaker 3: favor of Jacksonville. They show up and they're able to

2282
01:55:09,120 --> 01:55:11,200
Speaker 3: do things against Buffalo and nobody else has been able

2283
01:55:11,240 --> 01:55:16,360
Speaker 3: to do most most predominant, predominantly, it's rushing the passer.

2284
01:55:16,520 --> 01:55:18,680
Speaker 3: They get Josh on the ground more than any team

2285
01:55:18,720 --> 01:55:22,480
Speaker 3: I can remember. Josh is incredibly hard to sack. Jacksonville.

2286
01:55:22,480 --> 01:55:24,280
Speaker 3: They got to do it like three times a game.

2287
01:55:24,320 --> 01:55:25,480
Speaker 3: They got big boys up there.

2288
01:55:25,520 --> 01:55:25,960
Speaker 2: That's why.

2289
01:55:26,120 --> 01:55:29,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, so that hasn't changed. I don't care if they're

2290
01:55:29,880 --> 01:55:35,640
Speaker 3: oh to nine. Jacksonville's a tough front to play offense against. Uh.

2291
01:55:35,680 --> 01:55:37,360
Speaker 2: We got to get back to the phones at eight

2292
01:55:37,360 --> 01:55:39,920
Speaker 2: oh three oh five point fifty one eight eight five

2293
01:55:39,920 --> 01:55:42,640
Speaker 2: point fifty two, five fifty have some people waiting there patiently,

2294
01:55:44,040 --> 01:55:46,240
Speaker 2: and I got to refresh my screen to see exactly

2295
01:55:46,240 --> 01:55:49,320
Speaker 2: who we have there. Oh yeah, we've got Mike in Chica, Waga.

2296
01:55:49,360 --> 01:55:50,800
Speaker 2: What's up Mike here on One Bill's Live.

2297
01:55:51,520 --> 01:55:54,240
Speaker 15: How are you doing, guys? I got a question. Obviously,

2298
01:55:54,280 --> 01:55:57,480
Speaker 15: I watched a Bills more than anybody in the Monday

2299
01:55:57,560 --> 01:56:01,280
Speaker 15: night game. Yeah, I forget what on the was sucking first?

2300
01:56:01,360 --> 01:56:04,680
Speaker 15: Whatever it was short less than the yard? Why did

2301
01:56:04,840 --> 01:56:08,440
Speaker 15: the Buffalo Bills more than anybody else? And some teams

2302
01:56:08,480 --> 01:56:11,640
Speaker 15: do it? Quoted a shotgun, there's a yard to be

2303
01:56:11,680 --> 01:56:14,720
Speaker 15: made and they're in the shotgun eight and twelve yards back.

2304
01:56:15,080 --> 01:56:17,400
Speaker 15: And if that happened to be the play where Josh

2305
01:56:17,520 --> 01:56:20,600
Speaker 15: had a fumble, he rolled out and he tumbled an

2306
01:56:20,600 --> 01:56:23,640
Speaker 15: easy first down, they didn't take advantage of it. And

2307
01:56:23,720 --> 01:56:26,400
Speaker 15: the other comment I want to make it's compliments to

2308
01:56:26,520 --> 01:56:29,600
Speaker 15: mister and mister Allen because that boy is raised, right,

2309
01:56:30,280 --> 01:56:34,600
Speaker 15: but any other high profile player in the I'll listen

2310
01:56:34,640 --> 01:56:36,720
Speaker 15: here answer all right.

2311
01:56:36,600 --> 01:56:37,120
Speaker 2: Thanks Mike.

2312
01:56:37,320 --> 01:56:39,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll tell you this, Mike. The Bills can get

2313
01:56:39,600 --> 01:56:42,960
Speaker 3: up and get into shotgun the same way Baltimore will

2314
01:56:42,960 --> 01:56:48,520
Speaker 3: get into shotgun, Kansas City will get into shotgun. Teams

2315
01:56:48,520 --> 01:56:50,840
Speaker 3: will get into shotgun on a short third and short

2316
01:56:50,920 --> 01:56:54,440
Speaker 3: or a second and short because their quarterback can get

2317
01:56:54,440 --> 01:56:58,160
Speaker 3: the one yard himself, and if you get the defense

2318
01:56:58,240 --> 01:57:00,760
Speaker 3: thinking pass, it opens up a lane. Josh will take

2319
01:57:00,760 --> 01:57:02,680
Speaker 3: three steps forward, fall down and get the first down.

2320
01:57:03,040 --> 01:57:07,040
Speaker 3: It's an easy get out of shot easier get for

2321
01:57:07,080 --> 01:57:09,240
Speaker 3: teams like Buffalo out of shotgun because you got a

2322
01:57:09,320 --> 01:57:11,880
Speaker 3: quarterback that can outrun most, if not all, of the

2323
01:57:11,920 --> 01:57:16,320
Speaker 3: defensive front seven. So it's it creates a lot more

2324
01:57:16,360 --> 01:57:20,600
Speaker 3: space and you threaten the other team with a pass.

2325
01:57:21,080 --> 01:57:24,000
Speaker 3: And I've seen it too where I went back and

2326
01:57:24,080 --> 01:57:25,720
Speaker 3: was watching it. I can't remember which game it was.

2327
01:57:27,080 --> 01:57:29,160
Speaker 3: They spread him out, Josh gets the snap and it's

2328
01:57:29,160 --> 01:57:31,720
Speaker 3: a quarterback draw and he goes through. It's a third

2329
01:57:31,760 --> 01:57:35,040
Speaker 3: and two and they get four yards. So it's a

2330
01:57:35,080 --> 01:57:37,000
Speaker 3: tactical thing that you can do with a quarterback that

2331
01:57:37,120 --> 01:57:40,680
Speaker 3: six six two fifteen can outrun people. That's why you

2332
01:57:40,720 --> 01:57:42,800
Speaker 3: go shotgun on shore yardage once in a while.

2333
01:57:42,760 --> 01:57:45,720
Speaker 2: Simple as that. We have to step aside here and

2334
01:57:45,760 --> 01:57:47,400
Speaker 2: take a break. But more of your phone calls when

2335
01:57:47,440 --> 01:57:50,160
Speaker 2: we return. What young Bills player who has yet to

2336
01:57:50,200 --> 01:57:52,280
Speaker 2: make his mark in the league do you believe is

2337
01:57:52,320 --> 01:57:54,120
Speaker 2: destined for starting based on what you've seen here for

2338
01:57:54,160 --> 01:57:56,600
Speaker 2: the first two games, we're back with those and your

2339
01:57:56,600 --> 01:57:58,600
Speaker 2: phone calls. Next here on One Bill's Life, Stay with

2340
01:57:58,680 --> 01:58:13,160
Speaker 2: us all right, back here on One Bill's Live. Chris Brown,

2341
01:58:13,200 --> 01:58:16,160
Speaker 2: Steve Tasker coming to you live from the Wegmans on

2342

Speaker 2: McKinley Parkway here in Hamburg. And it's time out for

2343
01:58:19,920 --> 01:58:23,760
Speaker 2: this week's Coach of the Week, presented by Legends for

2344
01:58:23,840 --> 01:58:26,520
Speaker 2: week two. In section six, it's New Fans Chuck Nagel,

2345
01:58:26,720 --> 01:58:29,480
Speaker 2: who takes home this week's honor after the Panthers upset

2346
01:58:29,560 --> 01:58:33,480
Speaker 2: Medina twenty three to six. And then in section five

2347
01:58:33,600 --> 01:58:37,360
Speaker 2: it's Geneseo's Ryan Kramer they picked up their first win

2348
01:58:37,440 --> 01:58:41,280
Speaker 2: of the season defeating Batavia Notre Dame forty eight to fifteen.

2349
01:58:41,720 --> 01:58:46,200
Speaker 2: Each coach will receive one thousand dollars for their program.

2350
01:58:46,440 --> 01:58:50,040
Speaker 2: Good job Coaches. A topic of discussion for you today

2351
01:58:50,720 --> 01:58:53,640
Speaker 2: is which young Bill's player who has yet to make

2352
01:58:53,640 --> 01:58:56,280
Speaker 2: his mark in the NFL do you believe is destined

2353
01:58:56,280 --> 01:58:59,720
Speaker 2: for starting. We have some handsome interesting contributions thus far,

2354
01:59:00,160 --> 01:59:02,320
Speaker 2: and we go back to the phones and look for

2355
01:59:02,360 --> 01:59:05,160
Speaker 2: another one from Rob in Connecticut. What's up Rob?

2356
01:59:06,600 --> 01:59:09,840
Speaker 21: All right, Chris Hi, Steve, It's always a pleasure to

2357
01:59:09,920 --> 01:59:15,280
Speaker 21: Reconnoy once again. I would definitely like to say thank

2358
01:59:15,320 --> 01:59:18,840
Speaker 21: you very very much for taking my call last Thursday

2359
01:59:19,360 --> 01:59:21,960
Speaker 21: when I was able to talk to Therman Thomas, and

2360
01:59:22,040 --> 01:59:24,840
Speaker 21: you guys allowed me to ask that question because I've

2361
01:59:24,840 --> 01:59:27,760
Speaker 21: been wanting to ask a question for a long time.

2362
01:59:29,040 --> 01:59:31,760
Speaker 21: My heart was pounding. I got a little starstruck. I

2363
01:59:31,840 --> 01:59:35,440
Speaker 21: normally don't, but thank you for giving me the opportunity.

2364
01:59:35,600 --> 01:59:37,720
Speaker 21: I mean, I followed him all the way from high school,

2365
01:59:37,760 --> 01:59:38,760
Speaker 21: so that was awesome.

2366
01:59:39,240 --> 01:59:40,280
Speaker 7: That made my day.

2367
01:59:40,320 --> 01:59:43,720
Speaker 21: And then we won that night too, So anyways, you

2368
01:59:43,760 --> 01:59:44,560
Speaker 21: guys are awesome.

2369
01:59:45,880 --> 01:59:46,080
Speaker 8: You know.

2370
01:59:46,520 --> 01:59:50,080
Speaker 21: It was great to see what James Cook did. You know,

2371
01:59:50,120 --> 01:59:52,720
Speaker 21: he had himself a little fish fry down there, cooked

2372
01:59:52,760 --> 01:59:56,040
Speaker 21: him up nice fish fry meal. But I would definitely

2373
01:59:56,080 --> 02:00:01,080
Speaker 21: like to see Ray Davis produce a little bit more now,

2374
02:00:01,160 --> 02:00:03,560
Speaker 21: you know, get that one two punch in there and

2375
02:00:03,680 --> 02:00:07,040
Speaker 21: see if he can produce a nice big game for

2376
02:00:07,240 --> 02:00:09,640
Speaker 21: us as well. With that, I'll let you guys go

2377
02:00:09,800 --> 02:00:12,960
Speaker 21: have a great day and keep calling those games. Chris,

2378
02:00:13,040 --> 02:00:14,000
Speaker 21: you're doing a great job.

2379
02:00:14,160 --> 02:00:17,480
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thanks Rob. I appreciate that. I mean, I'm

2380
02:00:18,360 --> 02:00:21,880
Speaker 2: Ray didn't get much run because Cook was so dominant,

2381
02:00:21,920 --> 02:00:24,360
Speaker 2: and I think on top of that, the drives were

2382
02:00:24,400 --> 02:00:27,879
Speaker 2: so short. I mean four of their ten possessions started

2383
02:00:27,880 --> 02:00:32,120
Speaker 2: in Miami territory. One possession doesn't even exist because it's

2384
02:00:32,120 --> 02:00:35,080
Speaker 2: a pick six, because I was even noticing it. It's

2385
02:00:35,120 --> 02:00:37,720
Speaker 2: like the fourth quarter. Oh, there's Ray Davis, like he

2386
02:00:37,800 --> 02:00:38,840
Speaker 2: barely got any run.

2387
02:00:38,960 --> 02:00:40,920
Speaker 3: I get it too. Everybody like to see Ray. But

2388
02:00:40,920 --> 02:00:41,480
Speaker 3: what are you gonna do?

2389
02:00:41,520 --> 02:00:45,080
Speaker 2: I mean, he had James had, he was dominating.

2390
02:00:45,080 --> 02:00:47,120
Speaker 3: He had three touchdowns in the first half. He was

2391
02:00:47,200 --> 02:00:50,320
Speaker 3: crushing it. So like they do once in a while,

2392
02:00:51,280 --> 02:00:54,480
Speaker 3: this if James Cook's having the game he's having in

2393
02:00:54,480 --> 02:00:56,840
Speaker 3: this first half, nobody else is gonna get the ball.

2394
02:00:56,840 --> 02:00:58,840
Speaker 3: I mean, they're gonna keep feeding that guy.

2395
02:00:59,040 --> 02:00:59,800
Speaker 2: So what you need.

2396
02:01:00,040 --> 02:01:02,160
Speaker 3: You know, what might happen at some point is if

2397
02:01:02,640 --> 02:01:04,600
Speaker 3: James goes out there and is struggling through a series

2398
02:01:04,640 --> 02:01:06,400
Speaker 3: of two or they stopping him and they're keying on him,

2399
02:01:06,400 --> 02:01:08,000
Speaker 3: and he put Ray Davis in, and all of a sudden,

2400
02:01:08,080 --> 02:01:10,520
Speaker 3: Ray Davis is starting to have a pretty good game.

2401
02:01:11,040 --> 02:01:14,200
Speaker 3: You can bet they're gonna be very sensitive to that.

2402
02:01:14,240 --> 02:01:16,640
Speaker 3: We've seen it happen in other years with other running

2403
02:01:16,680 --> 02:01:19,040
Speaker 3: back tandems. They stick a guy in there and he

2404
02:01:19,080 --> 02:01:21,280
Speaker 3: starts doing it, they they leave the guy in.

2405
02:01:21,720 --> 02:01:22,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2406
02:01:22,320 --> 02:01:25,240
Speaker 3: Uh, they'll start feeding him. They there's none of this.

2407
02:01:25,480 --> 02:01:29,440
Speaker 3: They don't worry about you know, who's got how many

2408
02:01:29,480 --> 02:01:32,720
Speaker 3: reps or this reps or whatever. They keep feeding the

2409
02:01:32,720 --> 02:01:36,240
Speaker 3: guy that's that's having the night. So that's what really

2410
02:01:36,240 --> 02:01:37,920
Speaker 3: you're kind of hoping for. Because when you said, you

2411
02:01:38,000 --> 02:01:40,680
Speaker 3: know you want to Ray Davis, listen, no, I mean,

2412
02:01:40,720 --> 02:01:44,600
Speaker 3: I'm okay with it. I don't dislike Ray. James Cook

2413
02:01:44,680 --> 02:01:45,400
Speaker 3: is crushing it.

2414
02:01:45,480 --> 02:01:46,080
Speaker 2: Just hot hands.

2415
02:01:46,240 --> 02:01:49,040
Speaker 3: Just just love on James a little bit here and

2416
02:01:49,080 --> 02:01:50,680
Speaker 3: then if something else happens, we can.

2417
02:01:50,600 --> 02:01:52,480
Speaker 2: Move over to Ray, but don't him.

2418
02:01:52,800 --> 02:01:55,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't worry for somebody else to have success because

2419
02:01:55,400 --> 02:01:59,320
Speaker 3: we're having guys hap. It's like it's like hoping Mitch

2420
02:01:59,360 --> 02:02:02,160
Speaker 3: Trubisky has it's a great season, you know, no thanks.

2421
02:02:03,760 --> 02:02:06,120
Speaker 2: And look the way the running back position works, I mean,

2422
02:02:06,120 --> 02:02:08,840
Speaker 2: they are gonna lean on Rey at times. He's gonna

2423
02:02:08,840 --> 02:02:11,520
Speaker 2: get something that's going to happen. So I don't think

2424
02:02:11,840 --> 02:02:13,920
Speaker 2: you're gonna have to worry about Reagan and run. It

2425
02:02:14,000 --> 02:02:16,480
Speaker 2: will happen just by the nature of how the running

2426
02:02:16,520 --> 02:02:21,800
Speaker 2: back position functions. Nowadays, it's rarely just one guy for

2427
02:02:21,880 --> 02:02:24,520
Speaker 2: any team, let alone this one. Let's get back to

2428
02:02:24,560 --> 02:02:26,800
Speaker 2: the phones and to Nick down in New York City.

2429
02:02:26,800 --> 02:02:27,400
Speaker 2: What do you have for his.

2430
02:02:27,440 --> 02:02:33,000
Speaker 5: Nick Brownie, mister Tasker, I'd ask you how you're doing,

2431
02:02:33,080 --> 02:02:36,080
Speaker 5: but I already know the Bills are too to zero.

2432
02:02:36,560 --> 02:02:37,240
Speaker 12: Let's go.

2433
02:02:40,760 --> 02:02:41,920
Speaker 8: Indeet.

2434
02:02:42,240 --> 02:02:45,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, young young players with the potential to become stars

2435
02:02:45,960 --> 02:02:48,280
Speaker 5: on this team. I think it speaks to something that

2436
02:02:48,320 --> 02:02:51,000
Speaker 5: I've been thinking about for a long long time, which

2437
02:02:51,080 --> 02:02:54,720
Speaker 5: is that McDermott Hill is a good hill to die on,

2438
02:02:55,280 --> 02:02:57,360
Speaker 5: and I'm gonna die on that hill. I just think

2439
02:02:57,400 --> 02:03:01,440
Speaker 5: he's one of the absolute premier coaches and league. I

2440
02:03:01,480 --> 02:03:04,960
Speaker 5: think that the fact that he has anything below one

2441
02:03:05,000 --> 02:03:08,840
Speaker 5: hundred percent approval rating for Bill's Mafia, Honestly, it's going

2442
02:03:08,880 --> 02:03:11,560
Speaker 5: to use a strong word here, it's shameful. The guy

2443
02:03:11,640 --> 02:03:14,680
Speaker 5: is brilliant. He got the most out of Tyrod Taylor.

2444
02:03:15,160 --> 02:03:17,440
Speaker 5: I think it's the only time Tyrod's been to the playoffs,

2445
02:03:17,480 --> 02:03:19,360
Speaker 5: obviously the only time he's been to the playoffs as

2446
02:03:19,360 --> 02:03:23,600
Speaker 5: a starter. And they looked at Micah Hyde and Jordan Player.

2447
02:03:24,720 --> 02:03:29,600
Speaker 5: You know, before the Bills were they okay players, decent players,

2448
02:03:29,960 --> 02:03:33,600
Speaker 5: barely starters turned into all pros, and I don't know,

2449
02:03:33,600 --> 02:03:37,560
Speaker 5: maybe they're Hall of famers, certainly bring of famers, and

2450
02:03:37,720 --> 02:03:45,240
Speaker 5: I think that McDermott University is a funnel for talent

2451
02:03:45,440 --> 02:03:49,840
Speaker 5: to achieve its potential. So if the young guys, we

2452
02:03:49,960 --> 02:03:53,040
Speaker 5: and Bill's mafia already know Christian Benford is a star,

2453
02:03:53,400 --> 02:03:56,600
Speaker 5: I think the national media is catching up. I think

2454
02:03:56,720 --> 02:04:00,600
Speaker 5: that Greg Russo, we've talked so much in the offseason

2455
02:04:00,680 --> 02:04:03,120
Speaker 5: about how important it is for him to turn that

2456
02:04:03,200 --> 02:04:07,280
Speaker 5: corner and become a star, looks like he's already there

2457
02:04:07,440 --> 02:04:12,120
Speaker 5: getting there. And I just have so much confidence in

2458
02:04:12,160 --> 02:04:17,320
Speaker 5: the program that you know, from Pagoula to being to McDermott,

2459
02:04:17,680 --> 02:04:22,480
Speaker 5: to the assistance and on down through the starters to

2460
02:04:22,880 --> 02:04:27,600
Speaker 5: the practice squad guys, the ability for this team to

2461
02:04:27,640 --> 02:04:33,120
Speaker 5: create really, really good players as we have a legitimate program.

2462
02:04:33,200 --> 02:04:35,800
Speaker 5: I think we got a top two program in the

2463
02:04:35,880 --> 02:04:40,040
Speaker 5: NFL with us and it's the Chiefs. And that's why

2464
02:04:40,040 --> 02:04:42,440
Speaker 5: I say, if you're a young player, you get drafted

2465
02:04:42,480 --> 02:04:45,720
Speaker 5: to the Bills, you've got a real good chance to

2466
02:04:45,800 --> 02:04:48,440
Speaker 5: make the most of your talent. A couple of players

2467
02:04:48,640 --> 02:04:52,240
Speaker 5: who I think from this past draft really have the

2468
02:04:52,240 --> 02:04:56,880
Speaker 5: greatest probability of doing so. The caller just a moment

2469
02:04:56,920 --> 02:04:59,080
Speaker 5: ago mentioned Ray Davis. He is going to be great,

2470
02:04:59,120 --> 02:05:02,400
Speaker 5: and he's going to behind an offensive line that's always

2471
02:05:02,400 --> 02:05:05,200
Speaker 5: going to carve poles for him, especially when we're running

2472
02:05:05,240 --> 02:05:06,920
Speaker 5: duo the way we run it. As long as we

2473
02:05:06,960 --> 02:05:11,120
Speaker 5: got Spencer and Dione pulling for you, you've got opportunities.

2474
02:05:11,880 --> 02:05:13,840
Speaker 5: And I'm really excited when the time comes. I don't

2475
02:05:13,840 --> 02:05:16,160
Speaker 5: think it's going to come this season, but in.

2476
02:05:16,360 --> 02:05:17,040
Speaker 6: The next.

2477
02:05:20,000 --> 02:05:22,840
Speaker 5: The host for the quarterback, I think he's got stud

2478
02:05:22,880 --> 02:05:24,640
Speaker 5: written all over him, and I'm pumped to see him

2479
02:05:24,640 --> 02:05:26,920
Speaker 5: when the time comes. That's all I got for you, guys,

2480
02:05:27,000 --> 02:05:28,560
Speaker 5: Go Bills.

2481
02:05:28,920 --> 02:05:33,200
Speaker 2: All right, thanks Nick, appreciate the call. Yeah, I'm on

2482
02:05:33,240 --> 02:05:38,640
Speaker 2: the Benford train. Yeah, so I get that. And look,

2483
02:05:39,720 --> 02:05:45,000
Speaker 2: you're talking to one twenty three Main Street of the

2484
02:05:45,080 --> 02:05:49,080
Speaker 2: supporters of the player development of this coaching staff. I mean,

2485
02:05:49,200 --> 02:05:52,280
Speaker 2: I have been standing on tables for the last six

2486
02:05:52,360 --> 02:05:55,880
Speaker 2: years telling you this is the best player development coaching

2487
02:05:55,920 --> 02:06:00,640
Speaker 2: staff the Bills have had since the Levy era. Players

2488
02:06:00,680 --> 02:06:04,560
Speaker 2: get here and they don't level off. They get better.

2489
02:06:04,960 --> 02:06:08,560
Speaker 2: Whether they are a draft choice, a young veteran free agent,

2490
02:06:08,760 --> 02:06:11,960
Speaker 2: or even a veteran free agent, they get here, they

2491
02:06:12,000 --> 02:06:16,920
Speaker 2: get better. There are a countless number of examples, and

2492
02:06:17,080 --> 02:06:22,640
Speaker 2: players know they get better so much so that if

2493
02:06:22,640 --> 02:06:27,160
Speaker 2: they leave for big money, they come back. Shaq Lawson

2494
02:06:27,240 --> 02:06:31,200
Speaker 2: did it. Jordan Phillips did it. They left, got their money,

2495
02:06:31,360 --> 02:06:33,560
Speaker 2: they came back because they know they are the best

2496
02:06:33,560 --> 02:06:36,280
Speaker 2: player they can be when they are here. And that

2497
02:06:36,320 --> 02:06:40,240
Speaker 2: has been true umpteen number of times. I don't know.

2498
02:06:41,600 --> 02:06:47,160
Speaker 3: That may be the feather in the cap most prominent

2499
02:06:48,640 --> 02:06:52,680
Speaker 3: attribute Sean McDermott has brought to this organization, and it's

2500
02:06:52,720 --> 02:06:56,880
Speaker 3: a big one. Players come here and play their best

2501
02:06:57,360 --> 02:07:01,600
Speaker 3: and they become the best version of themselves. You can

2502
02:07:02,120 --> 02:07:06,880
Speaker 3: it is It is obvious when you see these guys,

2503
02:07:06,880 --> 02:07:09,520
Speaker 3: and you got guys popping off the bench like JaMarcus

2504
02:07:09,640 --> 02:07:15,440
Speaker 3: Ingram and all these guys popping off, Taron Johnson, Christian Benford,

2505
02:07:15,960 --> 02:07:18,320
Speaker 3: Matt Mulano. You can take him for granted now if

2506
02:07:18,320 --> 02:07:21,320
Speaker 3: you want. But they were not. They were millons, a

2507
02:07:21,320 --> 02:07:24,560
Speaker 3: fifth round draft pick who found the right spot and

2508
02:07:24,720 --> 02:07:27,320
Speaker 3: is now an All Pro who everybody's like going out,

2509
02:07:27,520 --> 02:07:29,680
Speaker 3: what a devastating loss. Well not so fast.

2510
02:07:29,680 --> 02:07:29,760
Speaker 2: Now.

2511
02:07:29,840 --> 02:07:33,640
Speaker 3: They got der Dorian Williams, you got Christian Benford.

2512
02:07:34,320 --> 02:07:36,760
Speaker 2: But that also in Bernard, that also points to the

2513
02:07:36,760 --> 02:07:38,960
Speaker 2: player development. You want to know what the value is

2514
02:07:39,000 --> 02:07:42,320
Speaker 2: in player development, being able to develop guys so when

2515
02:07:42,360 --> 02:07:44,280
Speaker 2: they do step on the field like Specter had to

2516
02:07:44,440 --> 02:07:47,000
Speaker 2: last week, where like cam Lewis had two in Week one,

2517
02:07:47,320 --> 02:07:50,720
Speaker 2: or like JaMarcus Ingram had to, they not only stand

2518
02:07:50,760 --> 02:07:55,400
Speaker 2: on the field and perform, there's no drop off right there.

2519
02:07:55,520 --> 02:07:57,760
Speaker 2: They're so prepared to go. That's player development.

2520
02:07:57,880 --> 02:07:59,600
Speaker 3: It's not only that, And they're not only and it's

2521
02:07:59,680 --> 02:08:03,840
Speaker 3: there's a lot to this. It's not just they get

2522
02:08:03,880 --> 02:08:06,160
Speaker 3: on the field and there's no drop off. It's that

2523
02:08:06,240 --> 02:08:09,280
Speaker 3: they they get on the field and they're thriving and

2524
02:08:09,560 --> 02:08:13,440
Speaker 3: they're like ready and they're in a there's no there's

2525
02:08:13,520 --> 02:08:20,080
Speaker 3: no hesitation, there's no fear, there's no nerves, you know

2526
02:08:20,080 --> 02:08:21,800
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. There's none of this. Man, I hope

2527
02:08:21,800 --> 02:08:23,400
Speaker 3: I don't mess this up for the team. There's like

2528
02:08:23,520 --> 02:08:25,800
Speaker 3: no watch me make the play that's gonna win the

2529
02:08:25,840 --> 02:08:29,600
Speaker 3: game for our team. That's that subtle mindset difference is

2530
02:08:29,960 --> 02:08:33,000
Speaker 3: an enormous attribute that most of these guys will step

2531
02:08:33,040 --> 02:08:35,000
Speaker 3: on the field with that. You take it for granted

2532
02:08:35,040 --> 02:08:36,840
Speaker 3: when you see it, but man oh man, it's hard

2533
02:08:37,360 --> 02:08:39,480
Speaker 3: to get young players to feel that way to feel

2534
02:08:39,520 --> 02:08:42,840
Speaker 3: empowered and ready and like to seize the moment rather

2535
02:08:42,880 --> 02:08:44,160
Speaker 3: than just try and get through it.

2536
02:08:45,240 --> 02:08:45,600
Speaker 2: They don't.

2537
02:08:45,760 --> 02:08:48,640
Speaker 3: They don't put survivors out on the NFL football field

2538
02:08:48,640 --> 02:08:51,920
Speaker 3: here in Buffalo. They put guys who are leaders. I mean,

2539
02:08:51,960 --> 02:08:54,400
Speaker 3: they put guys out there who are attacking the day.

2540
02:08:55,200 --> 02:08:58,000
Speaker 3: And that is that in and of itself, is obvious

2541
02:08:58,000 --> 02:09:00,080
Speaker 3: when you see these guys coming off the bench and

2542
02:09:00,120 --> 02:09:00,960
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, it's.

2543
02:09:00,800 --> 02:09:02,600
Speaker 2: Like, well, who were they?

2544
02:09:02,720 --> 02:09:03,880
Speaker 3: Where did they draft this guy?

2545
02:09:04,040 --> 02:09:07,880
Speaker 2: He wasn't drafted. And it's and it hasn't been just

2546
02:09:07,920 --> 02:09:08,360
Speaker 2: those guys.

2547
02:09:08,360 --> 02:09:10,520
Speaker 3: I mean, I've been saying it. I mean goes all

2548
02:09:10,560 --> 02:09:12,640
Speaker 3: the way back to Levi Wallace and Bob Foster.

2549
02:09:13,000 --> 02:09:15,160
Speaker 2: Taron Johnson was a fourth Remember Robert.

2550
02:09:14,920 --> 02:09:19,200
Speaker 3: Foster drafted he was catching touchdowns here with Josh, everybody's

2551
02:09:19,240 --> 02:09:20,280
Speaker 3: going crazy on him.

2552
02:09:20,840 --> 02:09:22,480
Speaker 2: He goes, he leaves Buffalo.

2553
02:09:22,160 --> 02:09:26,320
Speaker 3: He's out of the league, disappears, he had like one

2554
02:09:26,360 --> 02:09:32,200
Speaker 3: more year someplace and he's he's done. But here the

2555
02:09:32,280 --> 02:09:34,800
Speaker 3: guy's like making Josh look like, hey, Josh might be

2556
02:09:34,880 --> 02:09:40,280
Speaker 3: the guy. It's amazing. It's not nothing, Brownie, I got

2557
02:09:40,280 --> 02:09:44,160
Speaker 3: this guy. Credit Brownie. He's been on this this soap

2558
02:09:44,200 --> 02:09:46,680
Speaker 3: box about this player development thing, and people are like, going,

2559
02:09:46,680 --> 02:09:50,400
Speaker 3: what do you mean player whatever, It's real. These guys

2560
02:09:50,440 --> 02:09:54,680
Speaker 3: show up and they get better and better and better.

2561
02:09:54,760 --> 02:09:57,880
Speaker 3: Christian Benford went from a sixth round pick or seventh

2562
02:09:57,960 --> 02:10:00,920
Speaker 3: or sixth round pick, and he he was he was

2563
02:10:01,040 --> 02:10:04,280
Speaker 3: like nights on the depth chart in training camp, and

2564
02:10:04,360 --> 02:10:06,440
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, by the last week of training camp,

2565
02:10:06,720 --> 02:10:09,000
Speaker 3: you know who's getting some rep with the twos, says

2566
02:10:09,080 --> 02:10:12,080
Speaker 3: Christian Benford. Guy out like, what, who's he? He's a

2567
02:10:12,080 --> 02:10:14,560
Speaker 3: sixth round pick. Then the next week he's like, well,

2568
02:10:14,600 --> 02:10:16,920
Speaker 3: he actually now is getting reps within the one I'm like,

2569
02:10:16,960 --> 02:10:17,520
Speaker 3: what are you talking?

2570
02:10:17,840 --> 02:10:18,000
Speaker 2: Yeah?

2571
02:10:18,080 --> 02:10:21,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, And opening day the guys on the field and

2572
02:10:21,840 --> 02:10:26,520
Speaker 3: he has not left except for injury. This thing we've

2573
02:10:26,520 --> 02:10:30,720
Speaker 3: been that we're talking about is not getting and that's rightfully.

2574
02:10:30,800 --> 02:10:35,120
Speaker 3: We'll we'll talk about it here, but hopefully nationally nobody notices.

2575
02:10:36,280 --> 02:10:37,960
Speaker 3: But man, oh man, I'm telling you, the guys on

2576
02:10:38,000 --> 02:10:40,360
Speaker 3: the field, the guys in the locker room notice it,

2577
02:10:40,400 --> 02:10:45,120
Speaker 3: and word gets around, word gets around. It's it's a

2578
02:10:45,200 --> 02:10:48,040
Speaker 3: real thing. It's present here in Buffalo, and for whatever

2579
02:10:48,280 --> 02:10:55,400
Speaker 3: detractor Sean McDermott has, you can't you can't punch too

2580
02:10:55,440 --> 02:10:58,920
Speaker 3: many holes in this facet of his coach out tenure

2581
02:10:58,920 --> 02:10:59,560
Speaker 3: here in Buffalo.

2582
02:10:59,680 --> 02:11:03,120
Speaker 2: Maybe the most important facet that's keeping this team competitive

2583
02:11:03,160 --> 02:11:05,440
Speaker 2: no matter who they lose in the lineup. Gotta take

2584
02:11:05,440 --> 02:11:07,480
Speaker 2: a break here. Some final thoughts that will pull from

2585
02:11:07,520 --> 02:11:09,600
Speaker 2: the tweet sheet when we return here on One Bill's Live,

2586
02:11:09,640 --> 02:11:22,600
Speaker 2: presented by Colid of Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All

2587
02:11:22,680 --> 02:11:24,800
Speaker 2: right back here on One Bill's Live. One last segment

2588
02:11:24,800 --> 02:11:27,600
Speaker 2: here Chris Brown, Steve Taser Company, live from the Wegmans

2589
02:11:27,600 --> 02:11:30,520
Speaker 2: on McKinley Parkway here in Hamburg. Wanted to get a

2590
02:11:30,520 --> 02:11:32,480
Speaker 2: couple of tweets sheet comments out to you, brought to

2591
02:11:32,480 --> 02:11:35,240
Speaker 2: you by Corgan Moving Systems, the official equipment moving company

2592
02:11:35,280 --> 02:11:38,280
Speaker 2: of the Buffalo Bills. Sloth Know's Ball says, the way

2593
02:11:38,320 --> 02:11:40,720
Speaker 2: Ken Cad moves is truly special and he's a monster

2594
02:11:40,840 --> 02:11:44,040
Speaker 2: After the catch, He's still absolutely a superstar in the making.

2595
02:11:44,120 --> 02:11:46,920
Speaker 2: Keon and Ray Davis have shown flashes and will only

2596
02:11:47,000 --> 02:11:51,160
Speaker 2: improve with opportunities. Hoping for more growth from Osirius Torrance too.

2597
02:11:51,200 --> 02:11:54,880
Speaker 2: That was Steve's pick, Tom, says. Keon Coleman is waiting

2598
02:11:54,920 --> 02:11:58,000
Speaker 2: patiently to show this league what he is capable of

2599
02:11:58,840 --> 02:12:01,880
Speaker 2: Andrews says, Zach Davidson is my choice, and if we

2600
02:12:01,880 --> 02:12:04,040
Speaker 2: didn't already have a stock tight end group, he would

2601
02:12:04,040 --> 02:12:07,080
Speaker 2: be playing now. But long season and unfortunately injuries do happen,

2602
02:12:07,120 --> 02:12:09,080
Speaker 2: so he might make his mark at some point. But

2603
02:12:09,280 --> 02:12:13,680
Speaker 2: loved what he did in the preseason. Yeah, uh Tafaja

2604
02:12:13,840 --> 02:12:18,040
Speaker 2: says easy Christian Benford. Steve says, all the young players

2605
02:12:18,080 --> 02:12:20,440
Speaker 2: are very luckily to be in the Bills development system.

2606
02:12:20,440 --> 02:12:21,840
Speaker 2: It is one of the very best in the league

2607
02:12:21,840 --> 02:12:24,880
Speaker 2: for me. Andresen's athletics score and the way he processed

2608
02:12:24,880 --> 02:12:28,040
Speaker 2: the game in preseason is intriguing. Given time to learn,

2609
02:12:28,080 --> 02:12:31,880
Speaker 2: I think he could be a special player. I'm telling you, man,

2610
02:12:31,960 --> 02:12:34,720
Speaker 2: fans are going to be on Buffalo Joe Watch Monday

2611
02:12:34,800 --> 02:12:39,000
Speaker 2: night to see if he's up. Knowing Terrell Bernard is probably.

2612
02:12:38,720 --> 02:12:40,880
Speaker 3: Down, We've got a ton of calls about. You know,

2613
02:12:40,880 --> 02:12:42,320
Speaker 3: they want to see what he can do in a

2614
02:12:42,360 --> 02:12:45,000
Speaker 3: regular season game. You know he'll if he is up,

2615
02:12:45,040 --> 02:12:47,160
Speaker 3: he'll be you know, he'll start covering kicks and return

2616
02:12:47,240 --> 02:12:49,400
Speaker 3: and being on their special teams and all that stuff.

2617
02:12:49,800 --> 02:12:53,320
Speaker 3: But certainly, the way this season is gone, nobody's safe

2618
02:12:53,360 --> 02:12:57,680
Speaker 3: from being in the well right, I mean, uh, if

2619
02:12:57,720 --> 02:12:59,480
Speaker 3: you're on the roster, and if you're out there, you know,

2620
02:13:00,120 --> 02:13:01,880
Speaker 3: this first couple of weeks with the regular season, last

2621
02:13:01,920 --> 02:13:05,480
Speaker 3: couple of weeks of the preseason, everybody in the whole building,

2622
02:13:05,680 --> 02:13:07,640
Speaker 3: their antenna are up saying, man, I got it. Oh

02:13:07,640 --> 02:13:08,839
Speaker 3: my gosh, I gotta be ready.

2624
02:13:09,040 --> 02:13:09,240
Speaker 2: Yep.

2625
02:13:09,720 --> 02:13:11,600
Speaker 3: And they can see the success that the guys who

2626
02:13:11,640 --> 02:13:14,919
Speaker 3: were ready have had and it's like it's even more motivated.

2627
02:13:14,920 --> 02:13:16,160
Speaker 2: It only reinforces it.

2628
02:13:16,240 --> 02:13:18,600
Speaker 3: If I get my chance, I gotta be I'm gonna

2629
02:13:18,640 --> 02:13:18,960
Speaker 3: do that.

2630
02:13:19,040 --> 02:13:23,680
Speaker 2: You know that goes a long way in the locker room. Absolutely.
