Speaker 1: This this One Bills Live presented by Calida Health.

2
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 2: We have made it two days away from the season opener.

00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 3: We are cusping the NFL season. Yes that is uh

8
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 3: finally I got a little bit got a little bit

9
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,040
Speaker 3: of a fixed. Last night. I was bouncing back and

10
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 3: forth between Jess Pagoula and the Monday Night or the

11
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 3: sun Thursday Night football. Good match, by the way, Jess,

12
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 3: proud of you, but I can't believe it went that way.

13
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 3: I feel bad.

14
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 2: Well she made it all the way to the finals

15
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 2: last year and then had to say this scenx foot

16
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 2: three Behemoths player.

17
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 3: And good it was a great man. It was a

18
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 3: really good match. But anyway, I was going back and

19
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 3: forth and then when the light if you haven't heard

20
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 3: the lightning, there was a lightning delay in the Dallas

21
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 3: Philly game last night, and then that was it. I

22
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 3: pulled the ripcord. It was like ten thirty of that moment.

23
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 2: I was like, oh my go forget like we anticipated

24
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 2: the delay to be fifty seven minutes.

25
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: I was, good night. Now you want to talk about

26
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 3: just you should have just said, you know what, folks,

27
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 3: we'll finish this read about it tomorrow, because that's whatever

28
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 3: they did. I was done. Bless his heart, Jeff Colton

29
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 3: and our TD Jeff Colton, I said, no, I waited

30
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 3: it out. Wow, you're he's a goner. You're a better man,

31
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 3: absolute conner. There is no way I was right there

32
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 3: with you.

33
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 4: I had to shoot.

34
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 2: Well.

35
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, here's what I did. I've got NFL Plus on

36
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 3: the NFL app Yeah. I just came in and watched

37
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 3: the condensed version this morning. Put it on the TV. Poom,

38
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 3: presto Changoh, I watched it.

39
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 2: It helps with efficiency, Oh, not gonna lie.

40
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 3: It was yeah. And I'll say this this game last night,

41
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 3: I think the Bill's Ravens game is going to be

42
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 3: exactly like it on Sunday night. Dallas or Dallas came in.

43
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 3: They had two drives, they had three timeouts left, they

44
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 3: went down, they got stopped. They were down four in

45
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 3: the second half with two minutes or a minute, fifty

46
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 3: second to go, a minute and fifty to go. In

47
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 3: the fourth games almost over there, down four, they get stopped,

48
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 3: so they give the ball back to Philly, but they

49
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 3: got all three time out, so excuse me, so they

50
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 3: give it to Philly. They stop Philly on three downs,

51
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 3: get the ball back with a minute fifty two and

52
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 3: no timeouts, and they got a chance to win. That's

53
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 3: what the game is gonna be like. It's either gonna

54
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 3: be Baltimore doing that or Buffalo doing that. Take whichever

55
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 3: side you want. It's gonna be that kind of game.

56
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 3: You're gonna need to score to win, either a field

57
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 3: goal or a touchdown, and you're gonna have to manage

58
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,399
Speaker 3: the clock in the game at the end to win it.

59
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 3: It's who's gonna make those last handful of plays to

60
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 3: give you the win? And ended up Philly stopped him

61
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 3: and knelt down for the win.

62
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 4: Ravens game could go very much the same.

63
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 3: That's exactly what it's gonna do. The Bills Ravens is

64
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 3: gonna go exactly that way down to the wire.

65
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 2: I'm telling you happy to report the camper lots are

66
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 2: already filling up, pulled in today and the flags are

67
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 2: flying off the RVs. They always get.

68
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 3: There were always the first Oh yeah, they got accommodations.

69
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, free accommodations.

70
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 3: Show up.

71
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 4: H yep, we're here.

72
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 3: They're all that stand up. That's nice to you pull

73
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 3: out of the lot. When we go home at night.

74
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 3: We pull them out in there like waving big. They're

75
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 3: all waving see you next time, see you tomorrow. Yeah.

76
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 3: That's the way it is. That's good stuff.

77
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,239
Speaker 2: Uh, we do have Bill's notes to get to today

78
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 2: is you know, we sit a little over forty eight

79
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 2: hours away from kickoff on Sunday Night. Not practicing today.

80
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 2: Tredavious White and Tyler Bass neither Tredavious White is not

81
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,559
Speaker 2: practiced all week, so that certainly doesn't portend good things

82
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 2: for his availability on Sunday with the groin injury. Tyler

83
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 2: Bass dealing with a pelvic and hip ailment and he

84
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 2: was limited in practice Wednesday, did nothing yesterday, and is

85
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 2: not practicing again today, so he's certainly not trending in

86
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 2: the right direction either. Neither player has been ruled out

87
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 2: though for Sunday night season opener, but it seems to be,

88
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 2: as I said, trending in the direction of having to

89
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: turn to an alternate option at both positions. JaMarcus Ingram

90
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 2: and Dorian Strong are the two most likely options to

91
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 2: start in place of Tredavius White if he can't go,

92
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 2: and veteran kicker Matt Prater, who was just signed to

93
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 2: the practice squad yesterday, would be the player kicking in

94
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 2: the absence of Bass if it comes to that, and

95
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 2: he would have to be elevated from the practice squad

96
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 2: for the game to do so. Meanwhile, coach McDermott said

97
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 2: that Christian Benford and Keon Coleman will practice on a

98
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 2: limited basis as both are dealing with groin injuries as well.

99
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 2: He said he wants to see how they come through

100
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 2: practice before making a decision on their status.

101
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 4: Benford practiced fully on Thursday.

102
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 2: So I would anticipate as long as he came through that, okay,

103
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 2: he would practice fully again today. Maybe coach McDermott got

104
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 2: those two play crossed up in terms of who was

105
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 2: limited and who was full. Coleman's been limited the last

106
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:12,280
Speaker 2: two days, Benford a full participant yesterday, so coach McDermott

107
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 2: did say he's feeling good about both of those players

108
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 2: being available for the game, but obviously wants to see

109
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,239
Speaker 2: how they come through today's practice before making a final decision. Also,

110
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 2: Elijah Moore returns to practice today after missing Thursday's session

111
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 2: due to a personal matter. So that's kind of the

112
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,039
Speaker 2: injury situation right now. And as soon as the Friday

113
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 2: injury report is released, we will pass it along to you.

114
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 2: It's usually coming out around two thirty or so, so

115
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 2: if it's released before.

116
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 4: We're off the air, we will pass it along to you.

117
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 4: I don't know. I mean, it's not good.

118
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 2: I think it could have been worse, though, sure, I

119
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 2: mean Benford looking like he's gonna play is certainly a

120
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 2: big plus for the back end.

121
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 3: Well, maybe he looks like he might. But yeah, he

122
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 3: said he was limited today, so we'll see. Maybe they're

123
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 3: just making sure they're on it. But if he fully

124
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 3: practiced yesterday, if he's limited today, that ain't good.

125
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is not good. So we'll see.

126
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 2: We'll see what the official designation is on his practice

127
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 2: participation when the Friday injury report comes out later this afternoon.

128
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,600

147
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,559
Speaker 2: in the league this week seven division matchups. The NFL

148
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 2: is going to review last night spitting incident when Jalen

149
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 2: Carter spit on Dak Prescott for possible additional discipline standard

150
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 2: for acts that lead to disqualification. We should note that

151
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 2: Carter essentially already served the one game suspension by getting

152
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 2: ejected before the first snap even happened last night. That game,

153
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 2: by the way, one by Philadelphia twenty four to twenty.

154
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 4: So we'll see what comes of it.

155
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 2: After making it through training camp and the preseason with

156
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 2: no apparent health issues and not even appearing on Wednesday's

157
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 2: injury report, running back Christian McCaffrey was added to the

158
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 2: list last night. According to the forty nine Ers, McCaffrey

159
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 2: is dealing with a calf issue and was a limited

160
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 2: participant in thursday's practice. That is not a good thing

161
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 2: because many of you probably remember McCaffrey suffered from bilateral

162
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 2: Achilles tendonitis in both his calves last season, limiting him

163
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 2: to just four games, along with the torn PCL that

164
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 2: he suffered here in Week thirteen against the Bills. You

165
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 2: remember he took a carry and then just went down

166
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 2: all by himself on the field, got hurt and then

167
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 2: exited the game.

168
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 3: He nicked it the play before and then we tried

169
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:51,479
Speaker 3: to continue.

170
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was on the shoe string tackle

171
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 2: by Taylor Rapp might have been it because his leg

172
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 2: kind of he was jerked.

173
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 3: He was rolling in that game. Uh, and then you

174
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 3: know it was over. What a what a down season?

175
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 3: For him and now it continues. That's amazing. And as

176
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 3: for Jalen Carter, for those of you didn't see, they

177
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 3: hadn't even taken a snap. There was a kickoff. Both

178
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 3: teams were coming out and these two teams, don't you know,

179
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 3: finger quotes, don't like each other. And he spit on

180
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott's chest. He was over there. The Cowboys were

181
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 3: in a huddle, and I think Dak Prescott stepped up

182
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 3: spit on the ground outside the huddle towards the the Eagles.

183
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 3: Jalen walks up to him and tries to get like

184
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,439
Speaker 3: set the tone like we were were you trying to

185
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 3: spit on me? Kind of thing? And Dak and Prescott's

186
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 3: like going, basically, what are you talking about? Except probably

187
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 3: in colorful terms, because that's when the emotions are running

188
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 3: like that. Everybody's dropping f bombs and you know, the

189
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 3: whole thing about your ancestry and everything and so that

190
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 3: you know, And so Jalen Carter spits on his chest. Meanwhile,

191
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 3: the officials see that, you know, got they're getting to get,

192
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 3: you know, they want to keep him apart. They can

193
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 3: tell something's going on. So the official starts is walking

194
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 3: over during the lead up to that. And here's the hot.

195
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 3: You know, here's a hot you know, and you can't

196
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 3: miss it. I mean, there's it's on the replay, and

197
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 3: it's a right in front of the official, the officials

198
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 3: right on. It does the right thing. It's something he

199
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 3: throws the flag. Bro, you're you're Georgia bulldog there. It's

200
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 3: not quitting himself.

201
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 4: It was an abject failure.

202
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 3: It's an abchecked failure. Doesn't even take a snap in

203
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 3: the game. That's earlier than I got thrown out. I

204
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 3: got thrown out a least at least I got what,

205
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 3: you know, two plays, I got two as five plays

206
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 3: in the whole game, and I got thrown out. You

207
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 3: didn't even just walked out and spit. I'm like you.

208
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,319
Speaker 3: They don't think it could have done worse. If he'd

209
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 3: have punched him, then everybody would have seen it, not

210
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 3: just the official and the cameras. Oh my gosh, what

211
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 3: he'd do.

212
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 2: It Not a good look, not a good look at all.

213
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 2: Speaking of failures, I failed to mention that Bill's practice

214
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,359
Speaker 2: updates are presented by Lee Coom your Lake Erie College

215
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 2: of Osteopathic Medicine, and there is one additional Bills note

216
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 2: that I should mention Hall of Fame wide receiver Andre

217
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 2: Reid is the Bills legend of the game for the

218
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five home opener against the Ravens, so that

219
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 2: he'll be down on the field mping up the crowd

220
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 2: right before kickoff. So that'll be cool and we look

221
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 2: forward to that legend of the game presented by the

222
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 2: bfl o Store, the official retailer of the Buffalo Bills.

223
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 2: A couple other notes to get to as far as

224
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:59,719
Speaker 2: around the league goes. Dolphins tight end Darren Waller, who

225
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 2: came out of retirement to sign with Miami, had a

226
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 2: setback before practice this week suffered a hipstrain. He's now

227
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 2: unlikely to play against the Colts in the Dolphins opener.

228
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 2: According to head coach Mike McDaniel. He's been listed as

229
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 2: doubtful for the game. An NFL network is reporting that

230
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 2: the Raiders are signing wide receiver Justin Shorter off their

231
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,559
Speaker 2: practice squad to replace the retired Amari Cooper on the

232
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 2: fifty three man roster. Shorter, as we know, a former

233
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 2: fifth round pick of the Buffalo Bills. So Shorter gonna

234
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,839
Speaker 2: get a shot with the Raiders in week one.

235
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 3: I'm a We talked a little bit about Amari Cooper yesterday.

236
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm really interested to see where he's at mentally

237
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 5: why he signed with them and then retired because it

238
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 5: wasn't ceremonial.

239
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,079
Speaker 2: I'm no, I just signed with him like a week

240
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 2: and a half ago. I was just like, Yeah, he's.

241
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 3: Gotta be walking into that into that locker room, be

242
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 3: there for like twenty four hours or a couple of days.

243
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 3: Watch look and get a chance to see the vibe

244
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 3: and just say no, thank you. You know, Pete Carroll's

245
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 3: a high energy I've always liked Pete Carroll and a that,

246
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 3: but that you know, he's on a new team now

247
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,559
Speaker 3: and the Raiders and they're just getting things underway there

248
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 3: in their first year. And it seems like Amari Cooper

249
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 3: got into that locker room after he signed for about

250
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 3: ten minutes and was like, man, I want no part

251
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 3: of this. Not that it's a toxic locker room whatever,

252
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 3: but after being in Buffalo and the Honky Dory situation

253
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 3: they have here and all that, I just wonder if

254
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 3: it was just too big a change for him, because

255
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 3: that was really unusual. He at his introductory press conference.

256
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 3: He made that statement that he thought he had some

257
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 3: juice left, and I guess they squeezed it out of

258
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 3: him in them in the locker room.

259
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 4: I don't know that was the team that drafted him.

260
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 2: Perhaps he got a little nostalgic about playing for the

261
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 2: Raiders again and then got there and said, yeah, I

262
00:14:58,920 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 2: think I'm good.

263
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. He didn't really give him He

264
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 3: didn't give any answer like that or any explanation like

265
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 3: of that nature.

266
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 4: But he's not a he's not a bombastic speaker. Anyway.

267
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 2: He probably just walked in and said, yeah, coach, I'm

268
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 2: gonna re tire, I'll see you.

269
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 4: Thanks though.

270
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 3: That's too bad. But justin Shorter back on the.

271
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 2: Field, here we go, gets an opportunity. So we'll see

272
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: what he does with that opportunity. Today is Friday, and

273
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 2: you know what that means. The OBL Friday fan mailbag

274
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: is open for you to ask any question under the sun.

275
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 2: You want to ask about the fifty three man roster,

276
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 2: you want to ask about whether or not Matt Prater

277
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 2: is gonna kick this weekend, whatever is on your mind,

278
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 2: you let us know. At eight oh three, five point

279
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 2: fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty.

280
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 2: We got open lines for you there, or you can

281
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 2: submit a question on the tweetsheet add one pills live

282
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 2: on x SO fire questions away there if you don't

283
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 2: have time to make a phone call. So I just

284
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: think there's a lot more questions surrounding a Week one

285
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 2: game than maybe any other game of the season because

286
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 2: we're not yet sure how the Bills are going to

287
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 2: change things offensively, defensively, on special teams, and likewise for

288
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 2: the Ravens. Everybody's gonna have a few extra, you know,

289
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 2: wrinkles to what they've done in years past, because you

290
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 2: have to do more of and change if you want

291
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 2: to remain successful in this league. You can't keep doing

292
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 2: the same thing over and over. League is too advanced

293
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 2: for that.

294
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta evolve as it goes, and the players

295
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 3: and the new players that you have on your team.

296
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 3: Bills have more than a handful of new guys that

297
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 3: are going to be contributing. Those players make you evolve

298
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 3: because they have different strengths and weaknesses. And we talk

299
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 3: about it all the time, how different the league is

300
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 3: now than when I played, and guys before me played

301
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 3: and even in the early two thousands, you are expected

302
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 3: as a coaching staff in the NFL to maximize what

303
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 3: your players do best. Some guys were way ahead of

304
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 3: this game even when I played. That's what Don Shula was.

305
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 3: So that's why he was so great. He let his

306
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 3: guys do what they did best. They come up here

307
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 3: with Dan Marino, Don Shula and no we're disrespecting any

308
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 3: of those guys. Just a bunch of guys and they

309
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 3: played well. I mean, the guy won three hundred and

310
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 3: forty games in the league, and it was by letting

311
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 3: his players do what they do best. So you're gonna

312
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 3: evolve anyway, and I think that's the key thing. Can

313
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 3: you get players who help you evolve forward rather than devolve? Right?

314
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, that's and you got guys. You know,

315
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 3: the better the player, the more they can do, the

316
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 3: more you can do, the more tough you are to defend.

317
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 3: And it's not just about having a guy who's really talented,

318
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 3: it's about what he allows the rest of your guys

319
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 3: to do. So that's that's where we're kind of out

320
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,440
Speaker 3: of them at this point in history. It's it's fun

321
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 3: to watch too, as you see it.

322
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 4: Speaking of talented.

323
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 2: There's some other injury notes trickling in here through the

324
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 2: course of the early afternoon. Patriots are going to be

325
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 2: without their best player on Sunday. Christian Gonzales has a

326
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:06,360
Speaker 2: hamstring injury and is out, according to head coach Mike Rabels.

327
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,199
Speaker 2: So the Patriots will go into their opener without the

328
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 2: services of their best cover corner, which is not ideal.

329
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: I'm trying to remember, O. The Patriots playing Miami.

330
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,479
Speaker 3: The Patriots are playing they have in Week one?

331
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 6: They have.

332
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:25,120
Speaker 3: Raiders at home.

333
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 2: Oh, Raiders at home. Okay, that's not catastrophic. I mean

334
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 2: Raiders without Mark not playing the Bengals, you know, like

335
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 2: you think.

336
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 3: The Bengals are gonna explode out of the gates this year.

337
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,439
Speaker 2: No, why not?

338
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 4: Because they don't practice the right way.

339
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 3: Oh, look at you.

340
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 2: I have people that see things in other parts of

341
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 2: the country, have eyes. I have eyes in Cincinnati, and

342
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 2: they tell me that the way they practice is nowhere

343
00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:00,439
Speaker 2: near the way the Bills practice. Okay, it's not the

344
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 2: same thing.

345
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 3: Well I'll say this as well. The Browns they're playing

346
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 3: are gonna get the fresh You're gonna get the freshest

347
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 3: version of you know, Joe Flacco the fresh shift, right,

348
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 3: I mean, how Rickety do you think he's gonna be

349
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 3: a couple weeks sixty. I don't know how Rickety's gonna be,

350
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 3: but he's, you know, whatever gas he's got in the tank.

351
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:24,920
Speaker 4: The tank's full right now, Yes.

352
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 3: It's it's there now, it may not be there. The

353
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:29,640
Speaker 3: big question is.

354
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 2: How many miles to the gallon or the Browns getting?

355
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 4: Is the baby?

356
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,880
Speaker 3: The Browns the emptiest tank in the first quarter, as

357
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 3: empty as it might be, but they're gonna get whatever

358
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 3: Joe Flacco has got to give, and Miles Garrett's gonna

359
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 3: come out with the sea of contract. I mean, it's

360
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 3: gonna be good.

361
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 2: We'll see if the Browns can put up the Flacco

362
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 2: efficiency meter on the big.

363
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 3: Board, full and empty. He's he whatever it is.

364
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 2: Oh God, eight oh three oh five fifty obl Friday

365
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 2: fan mail bag open for you. Gonna lead the afternoon

366
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 2: off with Miran in Richmond? What do you got for

367
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 2: his Miranhi?

368
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,120
Speaker 7: John Thin, you're taking my call.

369
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,400
Speaker 8: I had a question about Ed Oliver in the defensive line.

370
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 8: Playing in general. I think Bill's bays give at Oliver

371
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 8: a little bit of a flat for playing inconsistently throughout

372
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 8: throughout the year. He may have a couple of good

373
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 8: games and be very dominant, that may not show.

374
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 9: Up at all.

375
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 8: I'm wondering what defensive tackle or defensive lineman, which of

376
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,640
Speaker 8: our new editions do you think that we'll we'll I'll

377
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 8: at Oliver to be the best storys of something and

378
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 8: play consistently from game to game.

379
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 3: Uh.

380
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 2: My answer would be joby Bosa off the bat because

381
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 2: he's a player with pedigree, talent, and reputation in this league.

382
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 2: So teams are going to account for him on game

383
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 2: day and because of that, I think there will be

384
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 2: a little bit less attention on it and it might

385
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 2: afford him some one more one on one man. So

386
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 2: that's my first answer. I guess there could be others.

387
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 2: You know, as the season unfolds, and if you know

388
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 2: a young player like TJ. Sanders is in a turbo

389
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 2: package lining up next to him, you know, on an

390
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 2: obvious passing down, you know you go Bosa Rousseau. Maybe

391
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 2: it's TJ. Sanders inside or with Ed Oliver. That's not

392
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 2: a bad pass rush package there.

393
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 3: Consistency comes from consistency of effort and preparation and routine

394
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 3: of giving you know, your maximum level of it, and

395
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 3: we've noted when Ed signed his extension a year before

396
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 3: last offseason, or maybe it was two off seasons ago,

397
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 3: he seemed invigorated by that. He's one of those guys

398
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 3: is motivated by positive reinforcement, and then giving him an

399
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 3: extension really made him turn up his level of consistency

400
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 3: to a greater degree than he was able to before that.

401
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,959
Speaker 3: A guy like tjson and on the roster, who Brownie

402
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 3: and I both have high hopes for, and who has

403
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 3: turned into what we think, or at least appeared to

404
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 3: be a young, slippery pass rush defensive tackle, having a

405
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 3: guy behind him or somebody who's rotating in with him,

406
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,640
Speaker 3: who gets who starts to challenge him for more reps

407
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 3: might be as big a motivating factor as well. Having

408
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 3: a guy with competition. You hear Brandon Bean stayd all

409
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,159
Speaker 3: the time. He wants to bring in guys who are competitive,

410
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 3: who want to compete to start. You know, Sanders may

411
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 3: be one of those guys, and if Ed wants to

412
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,199
Speaker 3: stay on the field, he may say to himself, man,

413
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,439
Speaker 3: I got to up my game. Let's go that as

414
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 3: much as anything may help as well, so that's one

415
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 3: of the reasons this team maximizes its roster. They hit

416
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 3: it on a lot of cylinders, a lot of levels.

417
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 3: You bring a guy in like Bosa, you got Greg

418
00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 3: Russeau on the outside, and Ed is motived and helped

419
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,399
Speaker 3: by those guys. You give him the internal motivation that

420
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 3: he seeks in the in the extension where he needs

421
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 3: to be validated by that uh. And then you bring

422
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 3: in a guy that's gonna press him to take maybe

423
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 3: reps away with his own production. You hit it on

424
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 3: all those cylinders. So whatever it is that motivates Ed

425
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 3: Oliver to be more consistent like we've seen, you know,

426
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 3: flashes of greatness, to be that all the time or

427
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 3: more of the time, they're giving it all to him.

428
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 3: That's what and that's why this culture works, that that

429
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 3: development is there. And they're not just doing that for Ed.

430
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 3: They're also doing it for Dion Walker, for TJ. Sanders.

431
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 3: They were doing it for Dwayne Carter before he got

432
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 3: his hurt, and the Landing Jackson's on the same program,

433
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 3: AJ Panessa. They've got all this stuff lined up for

434
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 3: these guys trying to get the most out of them,

435
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 3: and they do it different ways for each guy, So whatever,

436
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 3: I think, that's what I see from Ed. And one

437
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 3: more level of that was bringing it be bringing in

438
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 3: a higher round draft pick to compete with him for

439
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 3: playing time.

440
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,360
Speaker 2: Let's squeeze in Chris and only in here before the break.

441
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 2: What's up, Chris?

442
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 7: Yeah?

443
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:14,399
Speaker 8: I was appoint And if you can see Jordan Poyer

444
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 8: working his way into the starting lineup with our second

445
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 8: Gary being where it is, I.

446
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:25,439
Speaker 2: Don't foresee that right now at all. I think the

447
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 2: players that have been here and been putting the work

448
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 2: in all offseason, training camp, preseason are going to be

449
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 2: the ones that play.

450
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 4: Obviously, if there's a.

451
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:37,120
Speaker 2: Rash, there are a lot of variables that could precipitate

452
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 2: that kind of a move. But I don't think he

453
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 2: gets to the active roster or elevated for a game

454
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 2: unless one of two things happens. One there's a rash

455
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 2: of injuries at the position and they need him, or

456
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 2: two the play at the position is substandard and not

457
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 2: the standard and they have to look elsewhere to rediscover

458
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 2: the standard at their position. At those are the two.

459
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 2: Those are the two instances in which I can see

460
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 2: Jordan Poyer being elevated to the active roster and playing

461
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 2: for the Bills this season.

462
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 3: I agree with Brownie there. You can see a scenario

463
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 3: though where it would happen. But it's not going to

464
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 3: be like right out of the gate. They they like

465
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 3: the guys, they have at least to a certain extent

466
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 3: right and they want to give those guys a chance

467
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 3: to get some reps under their belt, give them a

468
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 3: chance to you know, further their careers. And they've earned it.

469
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 3: I mean, those guys have been here and they've earned it.

470
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 3: So yeah, you can see, certainly, you can see a

471
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 3: scenario where Poorer could get on the field this season.

472
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 3: He's on the practice squad. I mean that's all, you know, injuries,

473
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 3: all it takes. I think you would see it coming.

474
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 3: If Porter's gonna get on the field, We're all going

475
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 3: to see it coming down the pike, right, I mean

476
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 3: that's what I would say. It's not going to come

477
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 3: out of the blue like out of the signed him

478
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 3: to the practice squad now all of a sudden on

479
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 3: opening day he's out there. I doubt that will happen,

480
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 3: but we will see it coming down the pike. If

481
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 3: indeed their defense comes out of their defensive backfield comes out,

482
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 3: stumbles out of the blocks, and there's some things going

483
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 3: on that there's no explanation for poor play. You know,

484
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 3: injuries of course is in that mix. But yeah, since

485
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,679
Speaker 3: the guy's on the practice squad, I mean he's in line.

486
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 3: But how far down the line is he and what's

487
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:38,919
Speaker 3: going to cause the top of that line to go

488
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,160
Speaker 3: to the back of the line is another thing. All

489
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,399
Speaker 3: of that stuff is on the table, but we will

490
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,400
Speaker 3: see it on the horizon before it won't just explode

491
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:48,439
Speaker 3: on the scene out of nowhere.

492

Speaker 2: have a Friday obl fan mail bag edition of One

520
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 2: Pills Live, where any and all questions you might have

521
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 2: on your team, the league, the division, whatever it is,

522
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 2: fire away, and as promised, we lead off this segment

523
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 2: with Dave in Rochester.

524
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:37,879
Speaker 10: What's up, David, Hey, Fellows, good to talk to you again.

525
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 3: This year.

526
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 10: I have a question about the injury report. I don't

527
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 10: understand why Sir Davius White, for a couple of weeks

528
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 10: was listed with a lower leg injury and then we

529
00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 10: find out it's a groin injury and he hasn't practice.

530
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 10: Why don't they just put him on or he's probably

531
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 10: not going to play, and if he does play, he's

532
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 10: going to be not one hundred percent. So what wouldn't

533
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 10: Adrian Strong or JaMarcus Ingram be a better option at

534
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 10: you know, one hundred percent? Why do they keep it

535
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 10: so mysterious.

536
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 3: Well, because it's it's gamesmanship.

537
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why.

538
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 3: That's it. They don't want the other team to know.

539
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 3: They don't want us to know.

540
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 2: This is a game any I mean, seventy five percent

541
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 2: of the games in the league are decided by one

542
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 2: possession or less seventy five percent of the games, So

543
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 2: it's very hard for NFL coaching staffs to find advantages

544
00:29:56,160 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 2: that lead to greater separation between them and the opponent.

545
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 2: Most of the games in the league are relatively close,

546
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 2: as I just outlined with the statistic I just read,

547
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 2: you're trying to find any possible advantage to give you

548
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 2: a leg up in any way possible. And if a

549
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 2: head coach believes that not ruling a player out until

550
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 2: they absolutely have to gives them an advantage, they're going

551
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 2: to utilize it. It's as simple as that. You may

552
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 2: not think it's an advantage, but there might be a

553
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 2: coach in the league that does, and they're going to

554
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 2: use that to what they deem is an advantage for them.

555
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 2: And it varies in degrees. I mean, it could be

556
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 2: something that's obvious to all of us that by withholding

557
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 2: that information, as long as they are allowed to, they

558
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 2: gain an edge.

559
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 3: They will do it.

560
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 2: And I mean we used to see Bill Belichick go

561
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 2: the other way. He would list fifteen guys as questionable

562
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 2: and then they would all play. He would try to

563
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 2: lead you in the other direction. Yeah, there's It's happened

564
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 2: for decades, and that.

565
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 3: The league takes it pretty seriously. I remember, way back

566
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 3: in the day, the Cowboys were playing a team that

567
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 3: they were much better than, and Jerry was Jerry Jones

568
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 3: is the general manager and all that, and he Troy

569
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 3: Aikman had a thumb that was bothering him and stuff,

570
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 3: and he was limited in practice. But he's full you know,

571
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 3: he's limited full go, but he's practicing and he wasn't

572
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 3: listed on the injury list report. He was the week before,

573
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 3: but he wasn't that week because he practiced fully and

574
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 3: just bothering and stuff. But because he didn't miss any practice,

575
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 3: they listed him as not on the injury report. Right.

576
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 3: But they get to the game and sat him down

577
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 3: because it's like, nah, you don't need to play today.

578
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 3: They go out and win the game, and the league

579
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 3: finds him five hundred thousand dollars for sitting there starting quarterback.

580
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 3: So Jerry as a result, listed fifty three guys the

581
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 3: next week on the injury report, every single guy. So

582
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 3: there's some of that going on. It's it's always been

583
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 3: divulging in any information, let alone injury information has always

584
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 3: been a touchy subject with coaches and players and all that.

585
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 3: You know, I mean, you got the hip of stuff.

586
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 3: You're not supposed to divulge private medical information. Well that's

587
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 3: what the league does, you know, And let's be honest.

588
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 3: The gambling industry is up, you know, was up in

589
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 3: arms over lie you know that. You know when Troy

590
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 3: Aikman sits down for a game, I mean, and they

591
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 3: do it without warning. So not that the league is

592
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 3: whatever was concerned about it back then, but you know,

593
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 3: you can you can understand the blowback they get on

594
00:32:54,480 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 3: all this stuff. So yeah, you're right with holy information,

595
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 3: giving a little information, but on all the information and

596
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 3: just out and out lying has happened and will probably

597
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 3: continue to happen on injury reports.

598
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 2: Well, I'm not thinking, and the league has worked to.

599
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 3: Make it more.

600
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 2: What's the word I'm looking for here, more precise and

601
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:28,120
Speaker 2: specific over the years. You can't generalize an injury now.

602
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 2: You have to be specific as to what the injury is,

603
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 2: whether if it's a hand injury, is at the left

604
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 2: or right hand. You have to specify that.

605
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 3: Now, like when they're saying lower leg injury. That's before

606
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 3: they had to even release an injury report. Yes, that's why,

607
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 3: that's why they said it.

608
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it might have just been a mistake by

609
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:51,479
Speaker 2: you know, somebody that mixed him up with another player.

610
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 2: But because it didn't have to be on paper as

611
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 2: an official injury report until this week.

612
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 3: I didn't want to tell anything really matter. So that's

613
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 3: when it when it changes. So it's it's one of

614
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 3: the places where it's evident to the general public. There's

615
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 3: some gamesmanship going on, and it always has been that way.

616
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 3: That's why they have like doubtful and out, doubtful, questionable,

617
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 3: probable in. Yeah, and that's the five grade gradiations of injuries.

618
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 3: You cannot go you can't be from let's see, you

619
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 3: can't be too. You can't on game day. You can't

620
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 3: move two grades from where you were like on Saturday. Right,

621
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:44,360
Speaker 3: you can't go from doubtful. I think you can go

622
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 3: from doubtful to in, or you can't go from whatever.

623
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 3: You can't go from skip grades, too many grades on

624
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:53,479
Speaker 3: the on.

625
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 2: That part of the reason they got rid of probable. Right,

626
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 2: probably used.

627
00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 4: To be on the injury report.

628
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,360
Speaker 3: If you have that and then you're out, that was

629
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 3: a problem, Yeah, because guys say he's probably in, but

630
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 3: then he's out. Well it changed now he's doubt he's doubtful,

631
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 3: Oh he's in. Right, you can't do that. So that's

632
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 3: it's always happened, and it's always going to happen. There's

633
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:24,280
Speaker 3: no easy way around it.

634
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 2: It's an issue. Let's go to Gary in North Carolina.

635
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 2: What's up, Gary, guys?

636
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 9: I got a question regarding JaMarcus Ingram when he is

637
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 9: uh if he plays full time in the in the backfield,

638
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 9: who would take his place on the injury or on

639
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 9: the special teams with.

640
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:54,280
Speaker 2: With special teams, you know you're talking about punt team kickoff.

641
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 3: It might be might be Sam Franklin this week.

642
00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:02,440
Speaker 9: Yeah, I have one other question first, sure, okay, Steve,

643
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,759
Speaker 9: I was cleaning my room out and I have a

644
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 9: nineteen ninety three picture of the Bills team. On that team,

645
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 9: you are between Pete Metsler's and Mark Pike and your

646
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,839
Speaker 9: head is five inches taller than him. How big a

647
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,240
Speaker 9: box were you standing on when they took the picture?

648
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 3: It was a milk crate. I remember it. I had

649
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,680
Speaker 3: to use that milk crate like for ten years, but

650
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:32,879
Speaker 3: it was a milk crate the year I didn't use

651
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 3: it the way that I remember. One of them one year,

652
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 3: I don't know which one it was, but Howard Ballard

653
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,400
Speaker 3: was number seventy five. They didn't numerical order like all

654
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 3: the way across, all the way across, so it ended

655
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 3: up that eighty nine my number was right behind seventy five,

656
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 3: Howard Ballard's number in the next row, and then in

657
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 3: the row in front of us, and my head was

658
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 3: like I had to like move around. I was like,

659
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,840
Speaker 3: looked like Howard had two heads. So they gave me

660
00:36:58,880 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 3: a milk crate the next year.

661
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 4: Why must here's a good question.

662
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 2: Why must football teams line up in number order for

663
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:08,320
Speaker 2: the team photo.

664
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 8: I don't know.

665
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 3: They don't have to do they.

666
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 4: I don't understand. Traditionally they have.

667
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 11: Do they?

668
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:15,239
Speaker 7: I don't know?

669
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 6: Have they?

670
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 4: Well you did.

671
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 3: Let me tell you something. There's nothing more painful and

672
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:19,760
Speaker 3: stand for a team picture.

673
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 2: It's I'm a little I'm a short guy too.

674
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 3: So you got sixty.

675
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 2: They would always put the short guys in the front

676
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 2: for the team photo.

677
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 3: You got seventy. You got seventy alpha males out there,

678
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 3: and a bunch of this is good and a bunch

679
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 3: of coaching staff who think they're alpha males, and they're

680
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 3: all trying, and you get them wrangled up trying to

681
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,800
Speaker 3: get them with a straight face and pose for the pictures.

682
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 3: It's excruciating to be a part of.

683
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 2: I just every photo, every team photo you're part of.

684
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,919
Speaker 2: If you're a short guy, you're in the front row.

685
00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 3: Put the tall guys in the back. Well, yeah, and

686
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 3: I would in the back because I was eighty nine.

687
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 3: All that and I was standing on a milk crate

688
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:05,959
Speaker 3: next to Pete.

689
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 2: You were next to Pete for several years.

690
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 3: He was eighty eight, I was eighty nine helping you.

691
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:15,399
Speaker 3: And yeah, it had to be I think, Scott Burke

692
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 3: told the former media relations director of the Buffalo Bills

693
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 3: for a long time vice president of media relations. He

694
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 3: was there forever he was in town, just a few

695
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 3: weeks ago, stayed at the house. But he has a

696
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 3: picture from behind, like the scaffolding behind the picture, and

697
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,520
Speaker 3: you can you know, all the props and everything are there,

698
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 3: so you can see me standing on that milk crate.

699
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:41,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, because anybody who knows Pizza Metzlars, anybody who knows

700
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 2: Steve would.

701
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:42,879
Speaker 4: Know that they are not the same.

702
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,399
Speaker 3: Hi, Pete is eleven inches taller than I six eight.

703
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 3: I'm five nine.

704
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.

705
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 2: I mean, you couldn't have had it any worse in

706
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,959
Speaker 2: terms of who number eighty eight was on your roster

707
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 2: when it came to the team.

708
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 3: FNW Oh, oh my god. That could have been ed

709
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 3: too tall Jones man. Yeah, I mean, yeah.

710
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 2: Pete, could you you want to wear eighty one?

711
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 3: Something that a few numbers wouldn't have helped. I mean

712
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 3: I could still. I was standing behind Howard, I was

713
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 3: standing behind House or whoever. You know the seventies guys

714
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 3: were you know, or you know Marcellus Wiley or somebody

715
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 3: I was standing behind.

716
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 4: Okay, milk crate fixed it.

717
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 3: There you go.

718
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 2: We got to step aside, take a break here, more

719
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 2: of your phone calls when we come back. We'll also

720
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,839
Speaker 2: crack open the mail bag on the social media side,

721
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 2: see what questions you have over there too. Here on

722
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:33,799
Speaker 2: this OBL Friday Fan mail Bag edition of One Bill's Live,

723
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 2: presented by Collid of Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

724
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 4: All right back here.

725
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:56,319
Speaker 2: On One Bill's Live, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker, and we're

726
00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 2: dipping into the mail bag here on the social media side.

727
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 2: So we're gonna do that right at this very moment,

728
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 2: because they we have more questions there than we actually

729
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 2: do on the phone line. Steve and Connor asks, how

730
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 2: confident are you in the D line? In this matchup,

731
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 2: Buffalo has to be able to get pressure with just

732
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:18,720
Speaker 2: their front four, especially if the back end is in question.

733
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 2: I'm really looking forward to the Sanders and Walker tandem.

734
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:25,240
Speaker 2: Walker flashed, and I hope that will translate to Sunday

735
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,399
Speaker 2: confidence in the D line matchup Steve, especially pressure from

736
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 2: just rushing four.

737
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 3: I think I think it'll be favorable. I think you'll

738
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 3: like it better than you did last year. They're much

739
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,759
Speaker 3: more talented group, they've got more size, they've got more athleticism,

740
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 3: and they've got a guy on the edge in Bosa

741
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 3: who's healthy and is elite when he is. So I'm

742
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 3: looking forward to it as well. I've got more confidence

743
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 3: in this group now this year than I did at

744
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 3: any point last year.

745
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would have to echo those comments.

746
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 4: I'm really excited.

747
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,800
Speaker 2: I'm optimistic, Like I mean, TJ. Sanders and Dion Walker

748
00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 2: are coming on as like a second wave interior tandem,

749
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 2: and those two guys have caused problems in the preseason.

750
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 2: I realize they're going against bona fide starters now and

751
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 2: that's a little different. And there is only one change

752
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,799
Speaker 2: on the Baltimore offensive line, and that's at guard, where

753
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:17,319
Speaker 2: Andrew Vorhees is in because Patrick McCarey signed elsewhere in

754
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 2: free agency. He was the starter at guard last year.

755
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 2: Vorh he's a second year guy at a USC so

756
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 2: that's the only change they've made. And I think he

757
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 2: was a Day two draft choice if I remember right.

758
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:33,919
Speaker 2: In any event, they've got a good group over there

759
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:37,959
Speaker 2: in Baltimore with their offensive front, But to Steve's point,

760
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:43,720
Speaker 2: this defensive front is significantly more talented from a depth

761
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,839
Speaker 2: perspective as well. I mean that second group comes in,

762
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 2: I'm not anticipating much of a drop off. And this

763
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,239
Speaker 2: is without Michael Hoyd, Rogan Jobi even part of the

764
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 2: equation yet, So I think you should be encouraged. And

765
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 2: it's I think it's the most highly anticipated part of

766
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 2: the team going into this season, maybe short of how

767
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 2: much is Keon Coleman ready to take over. I think

768
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:08,799
Speaker 2: it's those two things that people are.

769
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:10,000
Speaker 4: Going to be most glued to.

770
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 2: That's what we've been watching for.

771
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,319
Speaker 3: That's those are the changes that have been evident in

772
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,320
Speaker 3: training camp anyway, and you hope they translate to the

773
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:20,400
Speaker 3: regular season and all that stuff that go you know,

774
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,360
Speaker 3: all that stuff. But that's I think you're it's a

775
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 3: it's a good tweet. I mean, it's a good question.

776
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:32,280
Speaker 3: You gotta watch it. And anything more. This defensive line

777
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:36,359
Speaker 3: gives you over what they gave us last year. It's

778
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:41,440
Speaker 3: gonna be gravy. This is a team that thrived on

779
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 3: turnovers last year. If they don't do that this year,

780
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,239
Speaker 3: they gotta they gotta have something to give, you know,

781
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 3: uh they are. It seems, and I'll say it again,

782
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:52,839
Speaker 3: it seems on paper that this is a much more

783
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:57,880
Speaker 3: talented group with a better pedigree and younger and more athletic.

784
00:42:58,760 --> 00:42:59,360
Speaker 3: We'll see.

785
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 2: David asks all about the d line. How improved will

786
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 2: it be or all the additions enough? Getting a player

787
00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:07,960
Speaker 2: with the potential of Bosa is great, but can he

788
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 2: stay healthy?

789
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,400
Speaker 4: Will Walker and Sanders have an immediate impact?

790
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,720
Speaker 2: If it all comes together, watch out and if Milano

791
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,520
Speaker 2: stays healthy plus plus plus go bills and kind of

792
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:16,040
Speaker 2: covered that.

793
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:20,120
Speaker 3: So all I'll say is Milana's gonna help for sure.

794
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,359
Speaker 3: He's fully healthy, He's read a guy man.

795
00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 4: He was tearing it up.

796
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 2: There were days at training camp where he was the

797
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 2: best player on the field and it wasn't even close.

798
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 2: So he was triggering, like you know, the all pro

799
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 2: Milano that we saw a few years ago, So you

800
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 2: have that now you're really talking. So yeah, much like you, David,

801
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:45,320
Speaker 2: we hope it all comes together as well. Greg asks,

802
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:49,440
Speaker 2: what lucky item do you bring where or eat for

803
00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:58,480
Speaker 2: a Bills game, bring where or eat Steve.

804
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 3: None of the above. I smoke a usually at least

805
00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 3: one cigar before the game.

806
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 4: Yes, we are aware of that.

807
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:03,800
Speaker 3: You knew that.

808
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:04,919
Speaker 4: I was aware of that.

809
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 3: We don't hang out too much pregame. No, you got

810
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 3: things you got to do, and that's you know all

811
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:12,840
Speaker 3: I I Yeah, that's the one vice. I can't drink.

812
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:14,879
Speaker 3: I can't have a beer or anything pre game because

813
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 3: I gotta work post game. So but my cigar thing

814
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:19,240
Speaker 3: is fine.

815
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not a I'm not much of a lucky

816
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,160
Speaker 2: kind of I gotta have this on me for a game.

817
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 2: I I'm a I think I'm smart enough to know

818
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 2: that my impact on the game is zero, so in

819
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,839
Speaker 2: terms of what's happening on the field, So I don't

820
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,439
Speaker 2: feel the need to bring some lucky item along with.

821
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 3: You and feel like your radio voice is going to

822
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 3: propel the team to victory. It's hard to get.

823
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:52,280
Speaker 2: I'm hard to get some fans a little more exciting

824
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 2: than they already are, but as far as what's happening

825
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 2: on the field, zero, Yeah.

826
00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,759
Speaker 3: I get that. I think you're I feel that same way.

827
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 4: We echo that sentiment.

828
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:06,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I'm pretty sure that, you know, the lucky

829
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 3: trinkets that my kids or my wife wore to the games.

830
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,360
Speaker 3: When I was playing, I had a little less to

831
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 3: do with it than the guys that would actually standing

832
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:15,200
Speaker 3: with me on the sidelines.

833
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:17,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't blame you.

834
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 2: We've got to get to collision Course, Steve, which is

835
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,320
Speaker 2: brought to you by Gabe's Collision, the official auto collision

836
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 2: repair center of the Buffalo Bills. Get back in the

837
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:32,840
Speaker 2: game and the collision course. Here is Derrick Henry against

838
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:38,839
Speaker 2: the aforementioned Bill's defensive line. And look, he had his

839
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,280
Speaker 2: way with the Bills defensive front in Week.

840
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 4: Four last year, as we well know.

841
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 2: Which included an eighty seven yard run for a touchdown

842
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 2: on the first play.

843
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:48,399
Speaker 3: From scrimmage right out of the gate.

844
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 2: But the Bills did a better job against him in

845
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:56,280
Speaker 2: the playoff game, particularly in the first half. He started

846
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:59,680
Speaker 2: heating up in the third quarter, and fortunately for the Bills,

847
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:02,919
Speaker 2: the race ran out of time and they were also

848
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,439
Speaker 2: behind on the scoreboards, so they probably could not run

849
00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 2: as much as they wanted to.

850
00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 3: That's one of the things about this Ravens team. We

851
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 3: talked about this. I don't think we did this on

852
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:14,600
Speaker 3: the air But the Ravens are a really good front

853
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 3: running team, really good.

854
00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 4: First, it's supremely difficult.

855
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:22,840
Speaker 3: They're yeah, they You don't the only team that did it.

856
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 3: Miami did it like a opening day last year or whatever.

857
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:27,759
Speaker 3: They came back from like twenty eight points down or

858
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 3: something two years ago and beat the Ravens.

859
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 10: Uh.

860
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 3: In Miami when the Ravens and I, the Ravens were

861
00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:38,879
Speaker 3: crushing them so bad, you almost think that it got

862
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 3: to the point where the players felt sorry for the

863
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 3: Dolphins and then they had Tyreek and Tyree they went

864
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 3: boom boom boom, boom boom and they beat them. And

865
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 3: the Ravens are going, how did that happen?

866
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 9: Uh?

867
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:52,080
Speaker 3: Because they just turned it off. But they are a

868
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,440
Speaker 3: really good front running team. You need to make sure

869
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 3: they don't jump out and get off to a fast

870
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,399
Speaker 3: start and leave you down by two scores, because they'll

871
00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 3: just they're just good at it.

872
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 2: Well, Yeah, they get up and they feel good and

873
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 2: then they play even better.

874
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:10,759
Speaker 3: Yes, they get even better when when they're up. So

875
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,279
Speaker 3: and most teams are like that, but these guys have

876
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,279
Speaker 3: so much stuff going right for them athletically, and they're

877
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,319
Speaker 3: their roster, their quarterback, they're running back, their offensive line,

878
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,520
Speaker 3: their defense, all the whole thing. They can. They just

879
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:27,320
Speaker 3: steam roll and you can't. It's hard to break that momentum.

880
00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:32,359
Speaker 3: So you really need to stay close all the time

881
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 3: to this team because if they get out in front,

882
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 3: you're not catching them.

883
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 2: And I think helping the Bills this year speaking of

884
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 2: their defensive front, they are bigger, heavier, stronger. I mean

885
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 2: Greg Grusseau put on about eight to ten pounds of

886
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 2: lean muscle mass himself.

887
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,600
Speaker 4: Joey Bosa is a two hundred and eighty five pounds end.

888
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 2: And you got the two draft picks, one of whom

889
00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:55,400
Speaker 2: is three hundred and thirty one pounds and Dion Walker

890
00:47:55,400 --> 00:48:01,360
Speaker 2: in six foot seven, Daikwon Jones, you know, Oliver and TJ.

891
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 2: Sanders who's a three hundred pounder as well. So I

892
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:08,360
Speaker 2: think you're bigger, you're sturdier in there. Does it translate

893
00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 2: to slowing Henry down? Because nobody truly neutralizes him. Slowing

894
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,320
Speaker 2: him down? I think it will help. Will it help enough?

895
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:18,120
Speaker 2: That's the test for Sunday.

896
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 3: Night, and then you've got to be ready for whatever

897
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:24,440
Speaker 3: the Baltimore Ravens have evolved into. They're not going to

898
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 3: come back and run the exact same play as they

899
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,480
Speaker 3: ran last year. They'll try a couple of them, for sure,

900
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:30,840
Speaker 3: because that's what they do well. But they'll have some

901
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:32,520
Speaker 3: wrinkles for you, and you got to be ready for that.

902
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,759
Speaker 2: And it's looking like Patrick Rickhard is not going to play,

903
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:39,280
Speaker 2: which could alter their run game approach to some degree

904
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 2: and would certainly be a help in short yardage, right

905
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:43,879
Speaker 2: because you don't have a three hundred pound full back

906
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:45,880
Speaker 2: coming through the whole before two hundred and fifty pounds

907
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:49,160
Speaker 2: Henry even shows up, So not having him, I think

908
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 2: would be of a benefit to the Bills run front

909
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 2: as well. So that is Collision Course brought to you

910
00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,239
Speaker 2: by Gabe's Collision, the official autocollision repair center of the

911
00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills. Get back in the game. We have to

912
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:02,040
Speaker 2: take a break. Steve is going to exit stage left

913
00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:03,440
Speaker 2: a little early here today.

914
00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:04,520
Speaker 4: When we come back.

915
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:09,360
Speaker 2: Our number two begins with former Baltimore Raven and Raven's

Speaker 2: As I said, thanks for the time. First and foremost,

927
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:17,280
Speaker 2: I want to begin right out of the blocks here

928
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:21,319
Speaker 2: with players that you have had your eyes on through

929
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:24,280
Speaker 2: the course of training camp in the preseason for the Ravens.

930
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 2: Basically new additions that you're very curious to see how

931
00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:32,640
Speaker 2: and where they can contribute for this roster. Who should

932
00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 2: we be keeping our eyes on? Who are new for

933
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 2: this Ravens team.

934
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:40,760
Speaker 12: Well, I think he's new yet old.

935
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 1: He's new and that he's going to get an opportunity

936
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:51,200
Speaker 1: to start. He didn't necessarily have an opportunity last year

937
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: because of some injuries. But I would say Andrew Void,

938
00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:59,680
Speaker 1: he's the left guard for the Ravens. Is opportunity starts

939
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:04,360
Speaker 1: on Sunday night and it's against a very formidable defensive front.

940
00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:08,160
Speaker 1: I think that we know what the Ravens rushing attack

941
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:10,880
Speaker 1: looks like in what they did with Derrick Henry rushing

942
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:14,480
Speaker 1: for over two thousand yards. Obviously Lamar Jackson rushing for

943
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:18,239
Speaker 1: over one thousand yards first duo and team history, and

944
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 1: I think the league history, if I'm not mistaken, to

945
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:24,319
Speaker 1: be able to accomplish such a feat. But I think

946
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 1: Andrew Vorhees has some big choose to fill and so

947
00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 1: I'll be anxious to see what he can do. Obviously,

948
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:34,879
Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball, Malachi Starks, He's

949
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,880
Speaker 1: going to be taking over for Marcus Williams, who was

950
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:41,120
Speaker 1: benched last year for poor play and is no longer

951
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,879
Speaker 1: on a team. But Malachai Starks is the Ravens first

952
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,640
Speaker 1: round draft choice. He came in with a lot of

953
00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 1: high expectations and has lived up to the billing. So

954
00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:54,759
Speaker 1: he's going to get an opportunity to play alongside a

955
00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:58,640
Speaker 1: bunch of veterans on the back end of the Ravens defense,

956
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:02,520
Speaker 1: and I'd be curious see how he holds up against

957
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:08,359
Speaker 1: a very talented and very attacking style of offense when

958
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:10,320
Speaker 1: it comes to the Bills receiving course.

959
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:11,959
Speaker 12: So those are the two new.

960
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,080
Speaker 1: Faces that I would say, offensively, defensively, and I'll throw

961
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 1: a special teams one in there for you as well,

962
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 1: in Tyler Loop. And so I think for Tyler who

963
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:23,200
Speaker 1: my guy, if there's.

964
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:24,440
Speaker 12: Ever huge.

965
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:30,960
Speaker 1: Choose to fill, it would be playing up against the

966
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 1: legacy and the solidified resume of Justin Tucker and what

967
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:43,640
Speaker 1: he did for the Ravens, all those years of consistency.

968
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 12: And so now Tyler Luke is trying to forge his

969
00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:51,400
Speaker 12: own path. But who talking about?

970
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 1: You know, going from the fire into or from the

971
00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 1: fire pennants of the Fire. And your first game is

972
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 1: at Highmark and against a fan base the likes of

973
00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:08,640
Speaker 1: Bill's Mafia. So it's gonna be fun to see how

974
00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:11,360
Speaker 1: he holds up under the scrutiny.

975
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:13,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, because you know, being a kicker that was out

976
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 2: in Arizona, he's got to be over the moon that

977
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:20,879
Speaker 2: this game is in September. So I wanted to talk

978
00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:24,040
Speaker 2: to you more about Starks because obviously he was a player,

979
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:28,000
Speaker 2: you know, high profile player in college at Georgia, three

980
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:31,400
Speaker 2: year starter there. You couldn't find somebody to say a

981
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,880
Speaker 2: bad thing about him. And these are the kinds of

982
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,680
Speaker 2: players that you typically see Baltimore target. But what are

983
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 2: the coaches saying about why Starks deserves the opportunity to

984
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:45,600
Speaker 2: start right out of the Rapper week one as a rookie.

985
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:54,160
Speaker 1: The big thing is his ability to absorb the offense

986
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 1: or I'm sorry, the defense and the schemes of what

987
00:53:58,520 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 1: the defense calls for.

988
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 12: This defense is a nameless, faceless defense.

989
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:05,560
Speaker 1: As they like to say, in other words, you're just

990
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:10,839
Speaker 1: put out there and obviously him being safety, but the

991
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:15,040
Speaker 1: scheme could be an amalgam of things, and you have

992
00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:18,800
Speaker 1: to know each other's roles. And for a rookie to

993
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 1: be able to assimilate himself so quickly, you know, literally

994
00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:26,880
Speaker 1: from the OTA practices all the way through training camp,

995
00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:29,400
Speaker 1: you saw it. And I think that's what you know

996
00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:34,080
Speaker 1: is the expectation for anyone on the Ravens starting defense.

997
00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:39,000
Speaker 1: But I think for Malachai Starks, his his range, his ability.

998
00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:42,520
Speaker 12: To track the ball, his ability to.

999
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 1: Cover you know, tight ends and as well as backside

1000
00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:48,240
Speaker 1: of the backfield as well as you know that slot receiver.

1001
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:49,600
Speaker 12: It is, it's everything.

1002
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:52,359
Speaker 1: And to come up and make tackles, you know, you're

1003
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:55,320
Speaker 1: you're required to be you know, in the AFC North,

1004
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:57,680
Speaker 1: you're required to be able to come up into the

1005
00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:00,719
Speaker 1: hole and make some strong tackles. So I think he

1006
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,719
Speaker 1: does all those things and checks off all those boxes.

1007
00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:08,319
Speaker 2: Okay, and now looking at Baltimore's run game, this isn't

1008
00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:11,400
Speaker 2: a catastrophic loss, but it's looking like Patrick Riccard is

1009
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:14,000
Speaker 2: not going to play due to the calf injury. So

1010
00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:16,560
Speaker 2: maybe their short yardage package looks a little bit different.

1011
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:20,719
Speaker 2: But how much does that alter their run game in

1012
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:24,919
Speaker 2: your mind? If Ricard can't suit up on Sunday night.

1013
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:29,880
Speaker 12: So Ricard is in Tom Munkin's office.

1014
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:33,840
Speaker 1: I think he's a luxury item.

1015
00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:37,399
Speaker 12: He is so versatile in that.

1016
00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 1: I mean he's built like literally an offensive guard, I

1017
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:45,960
Speaker 1: mean three hundred pounds and just pure athleticism.

1018
00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 12: The dude moves well.

1019
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:51,279
Speaker 1: And the luxury of him being in there is that

1020
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:55,160
Speaker 1: as much as you think you can key in on

1021
00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 1: where maybe Lamar or Derek or the play is going,

1022
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:03,600
Speaker 1: you can have a strong misdirection and he can be

1023
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:09,080
Speaker 1: that backside blocking element to what they like to do.

1024
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:12,520
Speaker 1: But he also is so versatile out of the backfield.

1025
00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 1: He has great hands. I think he is a threat

1026
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:18,680
Speaker 1: when it is in the red zone or short yardage,

1027
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 1: and so a lot of the keying in on what

1028
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,600
Speaker 1: you think is going to happen with Patrick Riccard.

1029
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:27,560
Speaker 12: It's not that.

1030
00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 1: Typical fullback as you would think, so I think that

1031
00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:34,640
Speaker 1: is something that is going to be sorely missed. But

1032
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: you also have Charlie Kohlar who can be equally as effective.

1033
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:44,200
Speaker 1: I know Mark Andrews is the pure tight end and

1034
00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:47,400
Speaker 1: you're probably more likely not going to see Isaiah likely,

1035
00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:51,200
Speaker 1: but I think that, yeah, Charlie Colar would more than

1036
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,600
Speaker 1: fit the billing for what they like to do.

1037
00:56:53,640 --> 00:56:56,040
Speaker 2: Schematically, Okay, so he'd probably be the filling if he

1038
00:56:56,080 --> 00:57:00,799
Speaker 2: doesn't go. I know that the Ravens it's a hard

1039
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:02,960
Speaker 2: roster to make. I mean, it's a deep roster, it's

1040
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:07,400
Speaker 2: littered with veterans, a lot of intrenched roles by veteran

1041
00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:12,600
Speaker 2: players already, and yet we see three undrafted rookies make

1042
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:17,520
Speaker 2: this Ravens roster. It's Lejonte Wester, the receiver slash return man.

1043
00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:21,440
Speaker 2: It's the linebacker Jay Higgins, and then the corner Keon Martin.

1044
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,480
Speaker 2: I don't know if I mean Wester, I would assume

1045
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:29,360
Speaker 2: it's going to be active to help on returns. Are

1046
00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:31,680
Speaker 2: these guys playing on special teams you think or are

1047
00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:33,439
Speaker 2: they in active Sunday night.

1048
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:38,080
Speaker 1: Like you said, Lejonte Wester again, you know I put

1049
00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:41,640
Speaker 1: him in the Tyler lut category of all right, young.

1050
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:44,400
Speaker 12: Man, like these are the bright lights. This is.

1051
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:49,440
Speaker 1: This is big boy football, and you're going up against

1052
00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:53,240
Speaker 1: a fan base that you're gonna be judging that ball

1053
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:56,480
Speaker 1: coming up off the foot of the punter into the

1054
00:57:56,960 --> 00:58:01,960
Speaker 1: the descending light of high Mark and you're going to

1055
00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:06,200
Speaker 1: feel the vibrations of the crowd through your soul. Can

1056
00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:09,400
Speaker 1: you make the right decision? And that's gonna be big

1057
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:14,480
Speaker 1: for him. I thank Higgins. There's possibility. I know, you

1058
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:17,920
Speaker 1: know they always jockey for position of who's active, who's inactive,

1059
00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:21,720
Speaker 1: So you know those are game day decisions that you know,

1060
00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 1: it's a head scratch, it's a toss up, you know,

1061
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:26,120
Speaker 1: roll of dice, let's see. But we definitely know the

1062
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:30,600
Speaker 1: Jontay Wester Woo, he's going to have his hands full

1063
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:31,480
Speaker 1: as a partment charner.

1064
00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:35,640
Speaker 2: Both of these offenses did an extraordinary job last season

1065
00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:37,800
Speaker 2: of protecting the football. I think they were both near

1066
00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:41,040
Speaker 2: the top of the league in giveaways fewest giveaways. I

1067
00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 2: should say the Bills were also extraordinarily proficient at taking

1068
00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:49,440
Speaker 2: the ball away, as the Ravens obviously found out in

1069
00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:54,080
Speaker 2: the playoff game last year thirty two total takeaways, and

1070
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,240
Speaker 2: almost every year that Sean McDermott has been the head coach,

1071
00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:00,600
Speaker 2: this team has ranked in the top five and takeaways,

1072
00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:02,680
Speaker 2: which is not easy to do because, as you well know,

1073
00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:05,919
Speaker 2: you know, takeaways can be a very arbitrary statistic. It's

1074
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:09,360
Speaker 2: not something that you can consistently rely upon week in

1075
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,240
Speaker 2: and week out. And yet there were the Bills doing

1076
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:16,880
Speaker 2: that very thing last season. The Ravens had seventeen takeaways

1077
00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:18,680
Speaker 2: in the regular season. I mean, it's almost half the

1078
00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 2: number that the Bills put up last year. I think

1079
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:25,960
Speaker 2: both will probably drift back towards the mean in what

1080
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:29,280
Speaker 2: looked like in extreme season for the Bills. But what

1081
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:33,120
Speaker 2: do you make of that? Because Baltimore's entire secondary is

1082
00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:37,520
Speaker 2: first they're all first round draft choices. Why is it

1083
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:39,440
Speaker 2: they don't get more takeaways?

1084
00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:39,919
Speaker 4: Do you think?

1085
00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:41,640
Speaker 2: Is it a lot of man coverage with their back

1086
00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:43,200
Speaker 2: turn What do you attribute to that?

1087
00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:48,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think there's the X factor of the year.

1088
00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:52,720
Speaker 12: Prior they were really really, really really.

1089
00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 1: Good and you just lost a slew of strong coordinator

1090
00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:01,440
Speaker 1: who went to see I'll be a head coach at McDonald.

1091
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:05,160
Speaker 12: Anthony Weavery goes out of Miami. He's a coordinator now,

1092
01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 12: and and so you lose all those coaches you have.

1093
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,040
Speaker 1: You know, some guys who you thought were going to

1094
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:15,919
Speaker 1: show up and be well as players, and Brandon Stevens,

1095
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:19,920
Speaker 1: Marcus Williams, those guys turned out to have down years,

1096
01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:26,200
Speaker 1: if you will. Getting to the quarterback is premium year prior.

1097
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:30,720
Speaker 1: They did an extraordinary job of it last year. It

1098
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:33,560
Speaker 1: took them to the second half of the year where

1099
01:00:33,560 --> 01:00:35,080
Speaker 1: they kind of got their mojo.

1100
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:36,959
Speaker 12: And their groove. And I think that second.

1101
01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:40,240
Speaker 1: Half of the year is where Zach Or the new

1102
01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:44,480
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator, kind of found his groove as far as

1103
01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:47,360
Speaker 1: play calling and as far as what guys can do

1104
01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:50,400
Speaker 1: and put themselves in position to make plays. And so

1105
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:54,040
Speaker 1: I think they've been preaching all camp turnovers and how

1106
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:56,960
Speaker 1: to create turnovers, and they showed it over and over

1107
01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:00,160
Speaker 1: again in their their meetings and really made a a

1108
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 1: huge emphasis of that. So I think this year will

1109
01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:08,600
Speaker 1: be that kind of return back to excellence what we've

1110
01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:14,920
Speaker 1: known from the Baltimore Ravens defense and building upon what

1111
01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:19,560
Speaker 1: we saw last year as a formidable defense that will

1112
01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:22,880
Speaker 1: hit you in the mouth and not just give up

1113
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:24,360
Speaker 1: arbitrarily big plays.

1114
01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:27,760
Speaker 2: Talking with Cadri Ismail, former wide receiver for the Ravens,

1115
01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:31,080
Speaker 2: Super Bowl champ and host of Purple pregame and postgame

1116
01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:33,720
Speaker 2: shows on WJZ TV and Baltimore, last one I've got

1117
01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,880
Speaker 2: for you, Cadre, is the pass rush for the Ravens.

1118
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:39,840
Speaker 2: Kyle van Noy has been a Bills killer going all

1119
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:42,040
Speaker 2: the way back to his days in New England, and

1120
01:01:42,080 --> 01:01:46,520
Speaker 2: he's been just as menacing with the Ravens when facing Buffalo.

1121
01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:50,280
Speaker 2: But the pass rush goes deeper than that for Baltimore.

1122
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:53,320
Speaker 2: And I know outa Faolway has put some lean muscle

1123
01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 2: mass on to try to be a little bigger and stronger.

1124
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:59,240
Speaker 2: And I was hearing good things about David Ajabo, you

1125
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:02,600
Speaker 2: know who was draft did as an injured player and

1126
01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:05,400
Speaker 2: really his first year was a wash. And now I'm

1127
01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:07,960
Speaker 2: reading some press clippings like he's really coming on here

1128
01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:10,720
Speaker 2: and might be a nice weapon in the pass rush.

1129
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:14,040
Speaker 2: So what can you tell me about maybe what might

1130
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:17,840
Speaker 2: be a more complete pass rush for this Baltimore Ravens

1131
01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:20,520
Speaker 2: defense and maybe not just leaning on Van Neust so much.

1132
01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:26,760
Speaker 1: Well, I think that has been probably number one when

1133
01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:30,920
Speaker 1: it came to the offseason and looking at yes, creative

1134
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:34,240
Speaker 1: turnovers and all that. How can you get to the quarterback.

1135
01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:38,880
Speaker 1: It's not good enough just to be close and maybe

1136
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:41,880
Speaker 1: hurry him. Let's get to him, touch him, feel him,

1137
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:45,400
Speaker 1: let him feel you. For four quarters. Let that fourth

1138
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:50,480
Speaker 1: quarter also be a quarter where you're providing the offense

1139
01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:54,480
Speaker 1: a quick three and out because you have gotten to

1140
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:55,200
Speaker 1: the quarterback.

1141
01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:56,840
Speaker 12: And I think that's something that.

1142
01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:01,000
Speaker 1: David Jabo knows he needed to step up his game

1143
01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:03,520
Speaker 1: with He was in danger of not even making the roster.

1144
01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:07,800
Speaker 1: They had an injury to a desa Isaac with his elbow,

1145
01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:10,880
Speaker 1: and I think that is where David Jabo was like, well,

1146
01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:12,920
Speaker 1: I need to go ahead and show them that you

1147
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:16,320
Speaker 1: can rely upon me. I know Dafe Oway, Yes, he's

1148
01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:18,680
Speaker 1: gained a lot more lean mass.

1149
01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:20,600
Speaker 12: We're looking forward to seeing.

1150
01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:23,760
Speaker 1: How he can build upon his uh, you know, double

1151
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:27,320
Speaker 1: digit sack last year statistic and see how he can

1152
01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:31,280
Speaker 1: improve upon it even more to create an opportunity to

1153
01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:32,440
Speaker 1: have some more double teams.

1154
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:33,640
Speaker 12: But I think the.

1155
01:03:33,640 --> 01:03:39,120
Speaker 1: Guy that really is, you know, exciting everyone's eyes is

1156
01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 1: Mike Green.

1157
01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:43,480
Speaker 12: The talented player out of Marshall, who they drafted in

1158
01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:44,800
Speaker 12: the second round.

1159
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:50,920
Speaker 1: He's been, you know, just showing some flashes of amazing bendability,

1160
01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:53,880
Speaker 1: if you will, and getting around a corner and getting

1161
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:57,040
Speaker 1: off the edge and getting to the quarterback. So I'm

1162
01:03:57,080 --> 01:04:00,160
Speaker 1: curious to see how he does as a rookie in

1163
01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:03,480
Speaker 1: his first game and recognizing that, you know, it's one

1164
01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:10,600
Speaker 1: of those situations where he's not necessarily expected to be everything,

1165
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:13,080
Speaker 1: but he's expected to have a strong role.

1166
01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:15,720
Speaker 12: So yeah, Kyle van Noy.

1167
01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:17,160
Speaker 1: Is gonna have some guys that are going to be

1168
01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:20,640
Speaker 1: helping him and hopefully they'll be able to stand the

1169
01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:22,080
Speaker 1: test of Josh Allen.

1170
01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:23,760
Speaker 4: That just shows you how deep this team is.

1171
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,439
Speaker 2: I mean, I completely forgot about my screen and he's

1172
01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:29,720
Speaker 2: he's he was a damn good college prospect, and I

1173
01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:32,160
Speaker 2: mean he's probably gonna be a passer a specialist to start,

1174
01:04:32,240 --> 01:04:34,920
Speaker 2: just to try to get on the field a little bit. Kadrie,

Speaker 2: you have five things to do. After we're off the

1201
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:50,840
Speaker 2: air here, we'll still be juggling some stuff we wanted

Speaker 2: to Uh, we'll get to the phones in just a second.

1203
01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:56,480
Speaker 2: But we wanted to present to you the tailgate tag along,

1204
01:05:56,800 --> 01:06:01,480
Speaker 2: which is presented by Wegmans, where you submit your game

1205
01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:03,400
Speaker 2: day plans and menu.

1206
01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:04,080
Speaker 4: Items for us.

1207
01:06:04,120 --> 01:06:09,240
Speaker 2: And it's obviously presented by Wegmans, the official tailgate headquarters

1208
01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:13,160
Speaker 2: of the Buffalo Bills. And this always, you know, gets

1209
01:06:13,160 --> 01:06:17,760
Speaker 2: my palette, and what's my palette when I hear what

1210
01:06:17,800 --> 01:06:21,560
Speaker 2: people have cooken up for the game this weekend? So

1211
01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:24,720
Speaker 2: the first one comes from Amy, She says, tailgating on

1212
01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:29,760
Speaker 2: Allen Street. Okay, at the downtown tailgate. Indeed, you're a

1213
01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:34,240
Speaker 2: little far from the stadium, but that's fine steaks, cheesy potatoes,

1214
01:06:34,400 --> 01:06:39,919
Speaker 2: chicken wing dip, and adult beverages. It is amazing how

1215
01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:44,040
Speaker 2: in the last I want to say, eight to ten years,

1216
01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:47,880
Speaker 2: chicken wing dip has taken off here. Ten years ago,

1217
01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:52,760
Speaker 2: it didn't exist, and then somebody made it, and then

1218
01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:57,400
Speaker 2: it's spread like a weed, and now like you'd be

1219
01:06:57,520 --> 01:07:00,160
Speaker 2: hard pressed to find a tailgate.

1220
01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:00,640
Speaker 4: With it now.

1221
01:07:01,480 --> 01:07:04,040
Speaker 13: I had never heard of chicken wing dip before I

1222
01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:07,760
Speaker 13: moved to Buffalo, and since moving in twenty nineteen, chicken

1223
01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:09,959
Speaker 13: wing dip is one of my favorite dips out there.

1224
01:07:10,320 --> 01:07:13,200
Speaker 13: This offseason, we made a chicken wing dip pizza, and

1225
01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,680
Speaker 13: I think I could have that breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

1226
01:07:15,800 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 2: Now do you make I would assume you make a

1227
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:23,600
Speaker 2: healthier version, because there is some sinful versions of chicken

1228
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:24,200
Speaker 2: wing there are.

1229
01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:26,640
Speaker 13: I have never tried to make it before. I have

1230
01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:28,560
Speaker 13: a really good friend who makes it, and it brings

1231
01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:30,440
Speaker 13: it to all of our gatherings that we have.

1232
01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:32,240
Speaker 2: And it's probably better that you don't know what's it's

1233
01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:33,160
Speaker 2: so good.

1234
01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:34,720
Speaker 13: I don't ask any questions.

1235
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:37,640
Speaker 2: You're better off not knowing, better off not knowing.

1236
01:07:38,680 --> 01:07:39,560
Speaker 4: Stimpy says.

1237
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:44,760
Speaker 2: We'll be watching from Houston, Texas, enjoying homemade kicked up sliders,

1238
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:49,040
Speaker 2: squishy buns and tender steamed burger patties topped with lightly

1239
01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:53,320
Speaker 2: browned onions and melty American cheese, paired with fries and

1240
01:07:53,400 --> 01:07:57,000
Speaker 2: cold beers go bills. All right, that's like, yeah, that

1241
01:07:57,080 --> 01:08:00,360
Speaker 2: is kicked up sliders. So I'm wondering how they make

1242
01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:04,400
Speaker 2: the buns squishy. I wonder if they like keep them

1243
01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:07,200
Speaker 2: undercover and heat them up that way and then the

1244
01:08:07,280 --> 01:08:08,440
Speaker 2: condensation makes her.

1245
01:08:10,160 --> 01:08:11,560
Speaker 4: That's interesting that they do that.

1246
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:17,360
Speaker 2: Lightly browned onions. Yeah, I'm on board with that a

1247
01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:19,080
Speaker 2: lot of the burger chains do that. They put a

1248
01:08:19,080 --> 01:08:21,920
Speaker 2: little onions on there underneath for a little extra flavor.

1249
01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:25,160
Speaker 2: No problem with that, one, Ed says. Going to be

1250
01:08:25,280 --> 01:08:29,000
Speaker 2: on our pool patio in northern Virginia with the fire

1251
01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:34,479
Speaker 2: pit going outdoor, TV, barbecue ribs and chicken. Now we're talking.

1252
01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:39,320
Speaker 2: Oh and we're getting the food from Wegmans in Chantilly, Virginia.

1253
01:08:39,680 --> 01:08:42,120
Speaker 2: Great store. I think that is as far south as

1254
01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:47,800
Speaker 2: Wegmans goes. My daughter lives in New York City and

1255
01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:51,200
Speaker 2: they open to Wegmans in Lower Manhattan and she will

1256
01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:53,920
Speaker 2: make the trip to hit it up there as well.

1257
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:58,200
Speaker 2: So yeah, Wegmans has far reaching ability.

1258
01:08:58,479 --> 01:08:59,280
Speaker 4: So good for you.

1259
01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:00,200
Speaker 13: That sounds good.

1260
01:09:00,280 --> 01:09:01,680
Speaker 4: Barbecueves and chickens.

1261
01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:05,120
Speaker 2: It can get a little messy, but I will say

1262
01:09:05,120 --> 01:09:09,880
Speaker 2: it's worth It's worth the mess most times. All you

1263
01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:11,200
Speaker 2: got to do is make sure you got a ton

1264
01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:13,120
Speaker 2: of napkins. As long as you got a stack of napkins,

1265
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:17,200
Speaker 2: you're good. Uh, Jay Bigg says, Seeing that we're gonna

1266
01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:20,320
Speaker 2: cook them dirty birds on Sunday, I see it fitting

1267
01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:23,719
Speaker 2: to make my world's greatest buff dip and air fry

1268
01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:27,200
Speaker 2: some wings from the meat market with Country sweet sauce.

1269
01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:31,639
Speaker 4: Have you ever air fried chicken wings?

1270
01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:33,960
Speaker 13: I don't have an air fryer, Like, I'm one of

1271
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:36,240
Speaker 13: the few people in this world that do not have

1272
01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:37,000
Speaker 13: an air fryer.

1273
01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,720
Speaker 3: Wow, I know I have school.

1274
01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:43,960
Speaker 2: I have one, and we have air fried the chicken wings. Now,

1275
01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:47,280
Speaker 2: you are limited space wise, you know, because it's a

1276
01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:49,720
Speaker 2: little canister thing that you slide in there, and we

1277
01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:52,040
Speaker 2: don't have a big one, a big air fryer, i

1278
01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:54,840
Speaker 2: should say, But it does a pretty good job. Like you,

1279
01:09:55,640 --> 01:09:58,479
Speaker 2: if you like like a little char on your wing,

1280
01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:02,639
Speaker 2: which I do, it does a good job in getting

1281
01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:05,120
Speaker 2: some char on there. And sometimes what I'll do is,

1282
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:06,600
Speaker 2: you know, I'll slide it in, I'll cook it for

1283
01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:09,360
Speaker 2: a certain amount of time and it might only give

1284
01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:11,080
Speaker 2: me a char on the bottom side, So then I'll

1285
01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:13,400
Speaker 2: flip them all over and then stick them back in

1286
01:10:13,439 --> 01:10:15,519
Speaker 2: for like another five minutes and get char on both sides.

1287
01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:17,599
Speaker 2: Because I'm a big chart guy on my wing. I mean,

1288
01:10:17,640 --> 01:10:19,880
Speaker 2: I'll eat regular wings if they don't have char on them.

1289
01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:23,960
Speaker 2: But if you got some charred up wings like that

1290
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:25,120
Speaker 2: you put on the grill.

1291
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:27,639
Speaker 3: After you cook, like, I prefer that too.

1292
01:10:29,160 --> 01:10:33,080
Speaker 4: Yes, thank you for explaining that. In two words where

1293
01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:33,880
Speaker 4: I was trying to do it.

1294
01:10:33,880 --> 01:10:37,760
Speaker 2: In about seventy five, Jack says my favorite segment, Glad

1295
01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:40,000
Speaker 2: it's back in the lot. This week we'll be flying

1296
01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:43,719
Speaker 2: frying up some crab cakes for Sammy's with Old Bay oil.

1297
01:10:44,680 --> 01:10:49,439
Speaker 2: Also making grilled jalapeno poppers stuffed with Mexican street corn

1298
01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:53,720
Speaker 2: and bacon Wow Wow, and Chipotle ranch for dipping. Let's

1299
01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:55,720
Speaker 2: open this season off with a bango bills. I think

1300
01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:59,839
Speaker 2: you're doing that, Jackey. That is some next level hallopeen

1301
01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:03,639
Speaker 2: of poppers, streekcorn, and bacon. Sign me up.

1302
01:11:04,760 --> 01:11:07,000
Speaker 13: Sounds good to Yeah, we may have to find Jack

1303
01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:08,880
Speaker 13: on around cake sandwiches.

1304
01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:12,400
Speaker 2: It's a longer tailgate too, like it's a for some people.

1305
01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:15,160
Speaker 2: This is a two meal tailgate, you know, lunch and

1306
01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:16,479
Speaker 2: dinner before they go in.

1307
01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:17,439
Speaker 4: Uh.

1308
01:11:17,479 --> 01:11:22,799
Speaker 2: Steve finally says terrace major steak filleted and then rolled,

1309
01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:26,240
Speaker 2: stuffed with Gouda cheese, mushrooms and red peppers, then wrapped

1310
01:11:26,280 --> 01:11:32,160
Speaker 2: in bacon, Holy Cow roasted red potatoes and asparagus as side.

1311
01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:34,240
Speaker 2: So they went healthy on the side because they got

1312
01:11:34,320 --> 01:11:36,920
Speaker 2: Guda cheese and bacon.

1313
01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:37,320
Speaker 4: In the steak.

1314
01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:40,360
Speaker 13: That's a steak I want to try.

1315
01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:43,479
Speaker 2: Wow, have you ever done stuffed like you know, whether

1316
01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:44,480
Speaker 2: it's chicken.

1317
01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:45,599
Speaker 1: Or stuffed chicken.

1318
01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:48,760
Speaker 2: It's hard to kind of cut it right to get

1319
01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:51,960
Speaker 2: enough space in the pocket to get the the things

1320
01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:52,360
Speaker 2: you want to.

1321
01:11:52,360 --> 01:11:52,960
Speaker 4: Add in there.

1322
01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:58,479
Speaker 13: You can you can fail at that very easily, do want.

1323
01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:00,760
Speaker 2: Just once it gets hot, it all runs out, and

1324
01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:04,400
Speaker 2: so you've got to be really careful one to cut

1325
01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:06,519
Speaker 2: a pocket deep enough to get some stuff in there,

1326
01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:09,160
Speaker 2: and then two not to over stuff it. Otherwise you

1327
01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:11,920
Speaker 2: have a giant mess, especially if you're grilling them, because

1328
01:12:12,479 --> 01:12:14,400
Speaker 2: there's nothing to catch all that stuff, and then it's

1329
01:12:14,400 --> 01:12:16,400
Speaker 2: down in the you know, in the burners, and then

1330
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:19,200
Speaker 2: you got a whole mess. So good luck with that, Steve.

1331
01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:21,280
Speaker 2: I hope it works out for you, because stuff in

1332
01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:24,360
Speaker 2: anything is not easy, maybe with the exception of a

1333
01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:28,040
Speaker 2: turkey or a true or a game or a what

1334
01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:31,240
Speaker 2: is that a cornish hen or something game hen something

1335
01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:35,000
Speaker 2: like that. But good submissions, and Steve, and I might

1336
01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:37,920
Speaker 2: have to find you out in the locks on Sunday.

1337
01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:39,599
Speaker 2: I might have to sample a few of these things

1338
01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:41,120
Speaker 2: before I head in and get.

1339
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:41,519
Speaker 4: Ready for work.

1340
01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:43,400
Speaker 13: Are you are you taking a page out of Steve

1341
01:12:43,439 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 13: Tasker's book?

1342
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:44,400
Speaker 3: This weak.

1343
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:46,719
Speaker 2: We might, we might do it. We might get out there,

1344
01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:49,120
Speaker 2: keep an eye out. We might be on a golf

1345
01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:53,639
Speaker 2: cart on Sunday. You keep an eye out. So if

Speaker 3: We might.

1349
01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:00,000
Speaker 4: We might have to taste a few things.

1350
01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:02,639
Speaker 2: I might skip my own launch at home and having

1351
01:13:02,760 --> 01:13:05,080
Speaker 2: empty come rolling in here on an empty stomach. So

1352
01:13:05,120 --> 01:13:07,200
Speaker 2: thank you for those submissions. And yeah, keep an eye

1353
01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:09,240
Speaker 2: on for Steve and I. We might be around. Let's

1354
01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:11,400
Speaker 2: get back to the phones though. Is it tobil Friday

1355
01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:15,360
Speaker 2: fan mail bag? And we go to Ryan in Toronto?

1356
01:13:15,439 --> 01:13:16,040
Speaker 2: What do you got for us?

1357
01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:16,360
Speaker 3: Ryan?

1358
01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:21,080
Speaker 7: Chris Maddy Happy Friday? Maddy? Air fire is a game changer.

1359
01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:23,960
Speaker 14: But what you go?

1360
01:13:24,040 --> 01:13:26,760
Speaker 7: You're coge for not having air fire? How dare you

1361
01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:31,920
Speaker 7: even say that on radio? Going back to the Bills,

1362
01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:35,040
Speaker 7: I've been thinking about the Raymond game. To be honest, guys, honestly,

1363
01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:39,680
Speaker 7: I'm really really a lot of one known to the

1364
01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:44,679
Speaker 7: Bill's defense going into the game. If I really hope

1365
01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:48,759
Speaker 7: Bills win the toss and McDermott e chooses to receive

1366
01:13:48,840 --> 01:13:51,360
Speaker 7: the ball, and I really want them to go be

1367
01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:54,639
Speaker 7: ahead of the game instead of going uh chasing chasing

1368
01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:57,000
Speaker 7: on the Baltimore Raymond. I think that's key to the game.

1369
01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:59,600
Speaker 7: I think they need to be on top. Secondly, I

1370
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:03,120
Speaker 7: could see Joe Brady and Brian Dabele swapping our roles

1371
01:14:03,320 --> 01:14:08,160
Speaker 7: next season. Look at the Giants schedule, man, Giants schedule

1372
01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:10,200
Speaker 7: is nasty. I don't even know if they're gonna win

1373
01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:12,880
Speaker 7: two games, to be honest. Anyway, Clock Happy Friday and

1374
01:14:12,880 --> 01:14:14,439
Speaker 7: Maddie think about a bike.

1375
01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:17,000
Speaker 13: All right, Okay, thanks.

1376
01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:19,599
Speaker 3: I know when I said that, I'm like.

1377
01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:24,000
Speaker 13: I'm probably gonna somebody's gonna say something. It is I am.

1378
01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:26,559
Speaker 13: I am out in an island here, I know, I am.

1379
01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:29,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not a it's not a big investment either.

1380
01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:32,720
Speaker 2: You know, you should pick one up. We'll keep you

1381
01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:35,720
Speaker 2: posted on on Maddie's air fryer exploits and whether she

1382
01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:38,400
Speaker 2: takes the plunge. But Ryan brings up a couple of

1383
01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:41,120
Speaker 2: good points here number one and Steve and I were

1384
01:14:41,160 --> 01:14:43,960
Speaker 2: just talking about this earlier in the show. Maddie, when

1385
01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:47,719
Speaker 2: the Ravens get up on you, they play even better,

1386
01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:51,120
Speaker 2: Like they get into groove and then the pedals on

1387
01:14:51,160 --> 01:14:54,439
Speaker 2: the floor and you can't you know, they've got you

1388
01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:56,800
Speaker 2: pinned to the mat and you can't get up, and

1389
01:14:56,840 --> 01:15:00,160
Speaker 2: then it's just a steamrolling exercise. And the Bill's witness

1390
01:15:00,240 --> 01:15:02,479
Speaker 2: that they were victims of that. In Week four last year,

1391
01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:05,000
Speaker 2: they get off to a hot start eighty seven yard

1392
01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:08,479
Speaker 2: touchdown out of the shoot and then it just rolled

1393
01:15:08,560 --> 01:15:12,080
Speaker 2: from there. Now, the Bills were also shorthanded, no Terrel Bernard,

1394
01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:15,360
Speaker 2: no Man Milano, no Taron Johnson on defense in that game.

1395
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:19,000
Speaker 2: But the point is if they get off to a

1396
01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:22,800
Speaker 2: hot start, very rarely do they cool off after that.

1397
01:15:23,320 --> 01:15:26,360
Speaker 13: Momentum will be huge in this matchup. You've got two

1398
01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:30,519
Speaker 13: great teams facing up against each other, and whoever grabs

1399
01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:34,120
Speaker 13: that lightning in a bottle first I think could use

1400
01:15:34,160 --> 01:15:36,320
Speaker 13: it for a big part of the game. And with

1401
01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:40,759
Speaker 13: the Ravens, if you're scoring on the first few drives

1402
01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:42,960
Speaker 13: and it's nice and easy for you, you can set

1403
01:15:43,040 --> 01:15:45,840
Speaker 13: up things then in the rest of the game that

1404
01:15:45,880 --> 01:15:47,960
Speaker 13: you can do because you're playing with this big lead.

1405
01:15:48,040 --> 01:15:50,240
Speaker 13: The defensive line can pin their ears back and go

1406
01:15:50,280 --> 01:15:51,040
Speaker 13: get Josh Allen.

1407
01:15:51,160 --> 01:15:51,240
Speaker 8: Like.

1408
01:15:51,600 --> 01:15:54,479
Speaker 13: If you're playing with the lead, you can unlock so

1409
01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:57,679
Speaker 13: many different things to the next level of your game.

1410
01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:01,400
Speaker 13: It's like a video game. You're unlocked different phases to

1411
01:16:01,479 --> 01:16:03,559
Speaker 13: the game. You make it to the next level, and

1412
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:06,639
Speaker 13: it makes it even harder for the Bills.

1413
01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:10,479
Speaker 4: Right, and you look no further than the playoff game

1414
01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:10,960
Speaker 4: last year.

1415
01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:13,280
Speaker 2: The Bills get up on the Ravens and their game

1416
01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:16,479
Speaker 2: plan has to morphin change based on the score on

1417
01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:18,640
Speaker 2: the board because now they're not in front, and they

1418
01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:20,960
Speaker 2: can't just pound the rock the whole game. They have

1419
01:16:21,040 --> 01:16:24,120
Speaker 2: to turn to different aspects of their offense, which Baltimore

1420
01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:27,479
Speaker 2: is more than capable of doing. But if you can

1421
01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:30,960
Speaker 2: get them off plan A and Ryan said, you know

1422
01:16:31,040 --> 01:16:33,559
Speaker 2: you win the coin toss, take the ball. I'm not

1423
01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,080
Speaker 2: opposed to that. And there have been a few instances

1424
01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:38,920
Speaker 2: in Sean mcgermott's career where he has taken the ball

1425
01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:41,759
Speaker 2: first when they win the toss. It's not often because

1426
01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:44,960
Speaker 2: we know the analytics say, if you defer, you've got

1427
01:16:44,960 --> 01:16:46,960
Speaker 2: a better chance of getting the last possession of the

1428
01:16:46,960 --> 01:16:49,360
Speaker 2: first half, and then by virtue of deferring, you get

1429
01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:51,040
Speaker 2: the first possession of the second half, and those back

1430
01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:55,360
Speaker 2: to back possessions can be very valuable in terms of

1431
01:16:55,439 --> 01:16:58,080
Speaker 2: changing the complexion of the score on the board. So

1432
01:16:58,720 --> 01:17:01,400
Speaker 2: we'll see what he ultimately, just if in fact, the

1433
01:17:01,439 --> 01:17:04,360
Speaker 2: Bills do win the coin toss, Let's go to Rick

1434
01:17:04,479 --> 01:17:05,599
Speaker 2: in California next.

1435
01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:06,160
Speaker 4: What's up Rick?

1436
01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:09,400
Speaker 15: Hey, how you guys doing? Thank you so much staking

1437
01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:09,720
Speaker 15: my call.

1438
01:17:09,840 --> 01:17:10,120
Speaker 2: Sure.

1439
01:17:11,439 --> 01:17:14,000
Speaker 15: My first thing I wanted to do is my submission

1440
01:17:14,040 --> 01:17:17,320
Speaker 15: for my cookout. Luckily, for us, during the NFL season,

1441
01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:19,960
Speaker 15: there's a bunch of hunting seasons that come our way.

1442
01:17:20,439 --> 01:17:22,320
Speaker 15: And I don't know if you guys ever been dove

1443
01:17:22,400 --> 01:17:24,920
Speaker 15: hunting or had the pleasure of eating doves, but we

1444
01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:27,760
Speaker 15: always get together and have a huge dove barbecue, a

1445
01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:30,040
Speaker 15: little bit of haulapeno in there, wrapping and bacon, and

1446
01:17:30,040 --> 01:17:31,120
Speaker 15: go to town, you know what I mean?

1447
01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:31,559
Speaker 3: Wow?

1448
01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:37,280
Speaker 15: Okay, And then in October, quail opens up, so we

1449
01:17:37,320 --> 01:17:38,960
Speaker 15: all go out for some quail to do the same thing.

1450
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:39,840
Speaker 15: It's a great thing.

1451
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:40,840
Speaker 14: Let me tell you.

1452
01:17:42,280 --> 01:17:42,360
Speaker 16: That.

1453
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:44,599
Speaker 15: Being said, guys, I got good news and bad news.

1454
01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:47,720
Speaker 15: Really the bad news. I don't have the warm and

1455
01:17:47,760 --> 01:17:50,639
Speaker 15: fuzzies really about this week's game. And I'll tell you why.

1456
01:17:51,240 --> 01:17:54,040
Speaker 15: We we just we have way too many suspensions and

1457
01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:57,400
Speaker 15: injuries on our side to really cope with a team

1458
01:17:57,560 --> 01:18:00,920
Speaker 15: like the Ravens. And I know that I'm not really

1459
01:18:00,960 --> 01:18:03,920
Speaker 15: so much afraid of them beating us as opposed to

1460
01:18:04,040 --> 01:18:07,160
Speaker 15: us beating ourselves. I think the only rule way we're

1461
01:18:07,160 --> 01:18:10,000
Speaker 15: gonna win this game is if Josh Allen and James

1462
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:12,240
Speaker 15: Cook put on the cape and they figure out a

1463
01:18:12,240 --> 01:18:14,800
Speaker 15: way to slide by these guys. But on the good

1464
01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:17,120
Speaker 15: news of it, I think the next time we see

1465
01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:19,400
Speaker 15: the Ravens will be in the playoffs. And when that

1466
01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:23,400
Speaker 15: time comes, we're gonna have back everybody off suspensions. Harrison

1467
01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:25,960
Speaker 15: will be back, hopefully god willing, Trey White will be

1468
01:18:25,960 --> 01:18:28,840
Speaker 15: at his best, and I have a really good feeling

1469
01:18:28,880 --> 01:18:32,120
Speaker 15: about the playoff game, but not week one, you know

1470
01:18:32,160 --> 01:18:33,439
Speaker 15: what I mean, And I just wanted to get there.

1471
01:18:33,479 --> 01:18:35,080
Speaker 15: I just want to see what you guys thought about that,

1472
01:18:35,240 --> 01:18:36,920
Speaker 15: and go Bills man, Go Bils.

1473
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:38,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks, Rick, appreciate the call. I mean, you have

1474
01:18:39,040 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 2: every right to be concerned. This is one of the

1475
01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:46,000
Speaker 2: best teams in the AFC. You better respect the Ravens

1476
01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:47,599
Speaker 2: and what they bring to the table. And I think

1477
01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:51,280
Speaker 2: most people would admit that, top to bottom, their roster

1478
01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:56,400
Speaker 2: is probably more talented than the Bills. They are a

1479
01:18:56,479 --> 01:19:00,479
Speaker 2: roster that's littered with proven, veteran players that are at

1480
01:19:00,520 --> 01:19:04,280
Speaker 2: the high end of talent and ability, And if you

1481
01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:08,080
Speaker 2: go position by position, you'll probably check the boxes more

1482
01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:11,640
Speaker 2: for the Ravens across the board than you would for

1483
01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:14,280
Speaker 2: the Bills. Their roster is probably a little bit more

1484
01:19:14,320 --> 01:19:18,679
Speaker 2: talented top to bottom. So the Bills have home field advantage.

1485
01:19:18,720 --> 01:19:22,479
Speaker 2: That's their edge in this game. But yeah, being a

1486
01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:25,360
Speaker 2: little shorthanded on the back end, you have a right

1487
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:26,760
Speaker 2: to be nervous, you do.

1488
01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:27,479
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1489
01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:31,559
Speaker 13: I think the positives in what we've experienced the last

1490
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:34,400
Speaker 13: few days in terms of who's practicing who's not, is

1491
01:19:34,439 --> 01:19:36,920
Speaker 13: the fact that Sean McDermott did say he feels good

1492
01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:41,559
Speaker 13: about Christian Benford and Kean Coleman for Sunday. That's I mean,

1493
01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:45,080
Speaker 13: that's big time Christian Benford being a part of this game.

1494
01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:48,519
Speaker 13: I think without him the story changes a lot as

1495
01:19:48,600 --> 01:19:51,799
Speaker 13: to what the Ravens would try to throw at Buffalo's defense.

1496
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:55,000
Speaker 13: But to know that McDermott feels good about having his

1497
01:19:55,120 --> 01:19:57,719
Speaker 13: best corner out there on Sunday, I think they're able

1498
01:19:57,760 --> 01:19:59,840
Speaker 13: to do now some things that they wouldn't be able

1499
01:19:59,880 --> 01:20:03,960
Speaker 13: to do without Benford and whoever it is next to Benford.

1500
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:08,519
Speaker 13: If Tardevius White can't go, we've heard glowing reviews about

1501
01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:12,200
Speaker 13: how Dorian Strong has developed in this defense in such

1502
01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:15,360
Speaker 13: a short period of time. And we've also we know

1503
01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:19,439
Speaker 13: the JaMarcus Ingram story. I mean, last year he gets

1504
01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:22,519
Speaker 13: thrown into the mix in the first game of the season.

1505
01:20:22,680 --> 01:20:25,719
Speaker 13: Second game of the season, we see him have two

1506
01:20:25,760 --> 01:20:29,479
Speaker 13: interceptions against the Dolphins, one that he returns for a touchdown.

1507
01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:32,880
Speaker 13: In week three, he then goes and gets a sack.

1508
01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:36,200
Speaker 13: So this is somebody who is used to playing in

1509
01:20:36,240 --> 01:20:39,080
Speaker 13: a short notice Understand's defense has been in it for

1510
01:20:39,120 --> 01:20:41,280
Speaker 13: a few years. So I think that's something that we

1511
01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:42,599
Speaker 13: can feel okay about as well.

1512
01:20:42,960 --> 01:20:46,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, and some of those things happened for JaMarcus Ingram.

1513
01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:50,439
Speaker 2: Why because the pass rush was effective, particularly in the

1514
01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:53,240
Speaker 2: Miami game. I mean two is just heaven the ball

1515
01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:57,120
Speaker 2: and just basically threw him a pop up. Why because

1516
01:20:57,160 --> 01:20:59,760
Speaker 2: the pass rush was so good in that game. Now,

1517
01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:03,200
Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens offensive line is better than that of

1518
01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:06,840
Speaker 2: the Dolphins. I would think most people would agree on that.

1519
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:11,639
Speaker 2: But the point still stands. If the guys up front

1520
01:21:12,400 --> 01:21:16,120
Speaker 2: can generate consistent pressure and force Lamar to make some

1521
01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:19,800
Speaker 2: hurried or even some ill advised decisions, that's going to

1522
01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:22,640
Speaker 2: help whoever they have lining up on the back end,

1523
01:21:22,680 --> 01:21:26,439
Speaker 2: so hopefully the guys up front can assist them in

1524
01:21:26,479 --> 01:21:27,200
Speaker 2: that vein.

1525
01:21:27,760 --> 01:21:29,360
Speaker 4: Let's get back to the phones.

1526
01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:31,840
Speaker 2: And we go to Paul way out in Arizona. What's up, Paul?

1527
01:21:33,080 --> 01:21:33,639
Speaker 6: How you doing?

1528
01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:34,160
Speaker 11: Guys? Hi?

Speaker 6: weekend off. He's bringing Mama Sita into Buffalo tomorrow and

1531
01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:49,400
Speaker 6: it's our first game since it's been about thirty five

1532
01:21:49,479 --> 01:21:50,679
Speaker 6: years ago. Was the first time.

1533
01:21:50,880 --> 01:21:52,599
Speaker 3: Wow, time she went wow.

1534
01:21:52,960 --> 01:21:55,240

Speaker 6: You a good one? I'm what happened to me? I'm

01:21:59,720 --> 01:22:01,719
Speaker 6: home taking care of the dog in the house.

1538
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,320
Speaker 3: Ah, the dog, It's always the dog.

1539
01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:08,240
Speaker 14: Well I'm trying to you know you guys, I haven't.

1540
01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:11,240
Speaker 14: Are you having the marriage counseling thing this year?

1541
01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:14,320
Speaker 2: We'll see it's possible. Why do you have a forgot

1542
01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:14,920
Speaker 2: about that?

1543
01:22:14,920 --> 01:22:15,679
Speaker 10: That's amazing.

1544
01:22:17,280 --> 01:22:19,320
Speaker 6: Well, I'm being the nice guy and taking care of

1545
01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:20,559
Speaker 6: him so she can come back.

1546
01:22:20,680 --> 01:22:22,479
Speaker 4: All right, good, good brownie points.

1547
01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:24,200
Speaker 3: Well done win for the week.

1548
01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:27,519
Speaker 6: All right, you guys have a good one, all right?

1549
01:22:27,560 --> 01:22:29,519
Speaker 4: Take care Paul. Yeah, good brownie points.

1550
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:29,720
Speaker 3: Man.

1551
01:22:30,560 --> 01:22:33,639
Speaker 2: Absolutely, send send the wife to the game with the son.

1552
01:22:33,720 --> 01:22:35,839
Speaker 4: That's great. I hope they have a good time.

1553
01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:38,080
Speaker 2: And I hope they get a pleasant result on Sunday

1554
01:22:38,120 --> 01:22:38,719
Speaker 2: night for sure.

1555
01:22:39,240 --> 01:22:42,720
Speaker 4: Uh, we go to Tom in Rochester next. What's up? Tom?

1556
01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:48,000
Speaker 14: Hey, Chris, Hey, Mandy. Last year, I do believe the

1557
01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:49,479
Speaker 14: Bills were undefeated at home.

1558
01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:52,479
Speaker 4: Yes they did. Counting playoffs a.

1559
01:22:52,520 --> 01:22:55,880
Speaker 14: Big thing this year, as Thurman told Josh, why don't

1560
01:22:55,920 --> 01:22:59,600
Speaker 14: you get the number one seed? And even though this

1561
01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:02,720
Speaker 14: is a very difficult game, I think if they can

1562
01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:06,040
Speaker 14: beat the Ravens and keep that mistique you're not We're

1563
01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:09,040
Speaker 14: not gonna lose in this building, they'll give the Bills

1564
01:23:09,080 --> 01:23:11,280
Speaker 14: a really good shot to give the number one seed.

1565
01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:13,840
Speaker 14: And I think if they get the number one seed,

1566
01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:17,960
Speaker 14: it's gonna be a one hell of an exceptional team

1567
01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:21,000
Speaker 14: to beat them. And it can be done. It can

1568
01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:22,879
Speaker 14: be hard, but it can be done.

1569
01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:23,600
Speaker 7: That's it.

1570
01:23:23,800 --> 01:23:24,280
Speaker 14: Go build.

1571
01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:27,719
Speaker 2: I love you guys, all right, Thanks Tom, appreciate the love. Yeah,

1572
01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:30,960
Speaker 2: the one seed is the carrot that's out there. It's

1573
01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:33,960
Speaker 2: been an elusive carrot because the Chiefs have done an

1574
01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:38,240
Speaker 2: outstanding job of managing games and eking out victories. They

1575
01:23:38,240 --> 01:23:41,000
Speaker 2: had eleven one score victories last year. I don't see

1576
01:23:41,040 --> 01:23:44,000
Speaker 2: that happening this year for them. That's that's a number

1577
01:23:44,040 --> 01:23:45,920
Speaker 2: that you would think comes back to the mean a

1578
01:23:45,960 --> 01:23:48,599
Speaker 2: little bit because eleven to one score victories, that's.

1579
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:51,559
Speaker 13: Ridiculous, crazy things that happened in those games, and you're like,

1580
01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:52,479
Speaker 13: what is going on?

1581
01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:53,240
Speaker 15: How?

1582
01:23:53,280 --> 01:23:53,679
Speaker 3: How?

1583
01:23:54,360 --> 01:23:59,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, And so you take that and couple it with

1584
01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:02,120
Speaker 2: the fact that the one seed. The one seed has

1585
01:24:02,160 --> 01:24:07,040
Speaker 2: been extraordinarily beneficial to the Chiefs. It's probably one of

1586
01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:10,280
Speaker 2: the single greatest reasons why they've made five of the

1587
01:24:10,320 --> 01:24:13,599
Speaker 2: last six Super Bowls. They're playing one less playoff game

1588
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:17,120
Speaker 2: than everybody else in the field. So that's one less

1589
01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:19,840
Speaker 2: game to have something wrong happen and you'll lose a

1590
01:24:19,880 --> 01:24:23,080
Speaker 2: game that you shouldn't have. It's one less opportunity for

1591
01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:25,519
Speaker 2: an injury to crop up to a key player because

1592
01:24:25,520 --> 01:24:28,920
Speaker 2: they're not on the field and they're not playing. So, yeah,

1593
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:32,080
Speaker 2: the one seed is enormously valuable, even more so now

1594
01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:33,519
Speaker 2: than it used to be, because it used to be

1595
01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:36,080
Speaker 2: two teams that would get the buy. Now it's just one.

1596
01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:38,720
Speaker 2: So if you're that one team getting the buy, it's

1597
01:24:38,760 --> 01:24:42,200
Speaker 2: extraordinarily beneficial. And I do think it should be a

1598
01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:44,800
Speaker 2: target for them. We got to take a break here.

1599
01:24:45,160 --> 01:24:47,080
Speaker 2: When we come back, I am going to wrap things

1600
01:24:47,160 --> 01:24:50,120
Speaker 2: up with you with Vision to Victory, and if I

1601
01:24:50,160 --> 01:24:52,599
Speaker 2: have time, I'll squeeze a call in as well as

1602
01:24:52,640 --> 01:24:54,960
Speaker 2: we take a break here on One Bill's Live presented

1603
01:24:54,960 --> 01:25:12,080
Speaker 2: by Coalida Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right, welcome

1604
01:25:12,120 --> 01:25:14,639
Speaker 2: back to One Bills Live. It is time for Vision

1605
01:25:15,120 --> 01:25:18,120
Speaker 2: to Victory, presented by a Wall Eyecare, the official eye

1606
01:25:18,160 --> 01:25:21,599
Speaker 2: care provider of the Buffalo Bills. And you know, as

1607
01:25:21,600 --> 01:25:24,760
Speaker 2: Marv Levy used to say, winning, the keys to winning

1608
01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:27,439
Speaker 2: are simple, but they are not easy, and with an

1609
01:25:27,439 --> 01:25:30,320
Speaker 2: opponent of this caliber, it's not going to be easy,

1610
01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:34,160
Speaker 2: especially since they seem to be a little bit healthier

1611
01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:37,040
Speaker 2: than the Bills are going into this week one matchup.

1612
01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:41,160
Speaker 2: It's interesting some of the calls we've had today because

1613
01:25:41,200 --> 01:25:43,400
Speaker 2: I kind of believe, and Steve and I were talking

1614
01:25:43,439 --> 01:25:48,160
Speaker 2: about this on the show yesterday, that ball control might

1615
01:25:48,240 --> 01:25:51,680
Speaker 2: be something the Bills have to pivot to if their

1616
01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:55,519
Speaker 2: defense finds it difficult being shorthanded on the back end,

1617
01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:58,320
Speaker 2: as we anticipate them to be, at least to some degree,

1618
01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:02,320
Speaker 2: if stopping them and the passing game becomes an issue,

1619
01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:04,960
Speaker 2: they may have to pivot to a power run game

1620
01:26:05,640 --> 01:26:09,640
Speaker 2: or a ball control type approach, not unlike what we

1621
01:26:09,720 --> 01:26:12,000
Speaker 2: saw in the playoff game last year in the AFC

1622
01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:15,719
Speaker 2: Divisional Playoff, where they ran the ball thirty six times

1623
01:26:15,760 --> 01:26:18,360
Speaker 2: and with great effectiveness against the number one run defense

1624
01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:22,760
Speaker 2: in football. So I think that's a possibility and it

1625
01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:25,519
Speaker 2: might be something they have to turn to to shorten

1626
01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:27,960
Speaker 2: the game, so to speak. And that's only going to

1627
01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:31,200
Speaker 2: be effective if it's a one score game or they're

1628
01:26:31,240 --> 01:26:35,559
Speaker 2: even ahead, which they were able to also accomplish last season.

1629
01:26:35,680 --> 01:26:39,519
Speaker 2: But I think this defensive front, this revamp defensive front,

1630
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:42,240
Speaker 2: has to get pressure on Lamar Jackson, but it has

1631
01:26:42,360 --> 01:26:45,639
Speaker 2: to be, as we know, disciplined pressure. You can't leave

1632
01:26:45,680 --> 01:26:48,719
Speaker 2: wide open lanes for him to escape and leave the pocket,

1633
01:26:48,880 --> 01:26:51,839
Speaker 2: because then you have a whole different problem on your hands.

1634
01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:54,600
Speaker 2: But I think you've got to neutralize Henry to the

1635
01:26:54,640 --> 01:26:59,000
Speaker 2: point where you invite Lamar to throw. Hopefully you've created

1636
01:26:59,040 --> 01:27:02,720
Speaker 2: long down and distance situations to force that, and then

1637
01:27:02,760 --> 01:27:05,799
Speaker 2: you have to hope that your Revamp pass rush gets

1638
01:27:05,800 --> 01:27:09,439
Speaker 2: home at least to the point where you're rushing Lamar

1639
01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:13,320
Speaker 2: through his reads. Or even better, pulling his eyes down

1640
01:27:13,400 --> 01:27:16,559
Speaker 2: from looking down the field and impacting him that way

1641
01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:19,559
Speaker 2: where he's trying to make something happen off script, which

1642
01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:22,880
Speaker 2: we know he can do. But even the best offscript

1643
01:27:22,880 --> 01:27:25,719
Speaker 2: players like Lamar and Josh don't want to live there

1644
01:27:26,080 --> 01:27:29,400
Speaker 2: for the majority of the game. To me, that's how

1645
01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:33,040
Speaker 2: the Bills see their way to a victory. If they

1646
01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:35,479
Speaker 2: can get a big play in there, or two via

1647
01:27:35,520 --> 01:27:37,519
Speaker 2: a turnover, that's always going to help as well. The

1648
01:27:37,560 --> 01:27:40,080
Speaker 2: Bills needed three of them to barely beat them last year.

1649
01:27:40,439 --> 01:27:44,400
Speaker 2: They were I think three to nothing in the turnover ratio.

1650
01:27:44,560 --> 01:27:47,280
Speaker 2: So if you can just get two, I think that

1651
01:27:47,360 --> 01:27:49,800
Speaker 2: will go a long way to helping your efforts. So

1652
01:27:49,800 --> 01:27:52,360
Speaker 2: that's vision to victory presented by at Wall Eye Care.

1653
01:27:52,360 --> 01:27:54,599
Speaker 2: Gonna squeeze a call in here, Mary in North Carolina?

1654
01:27:54,600 --> 01:27:55,479
Speaker 2: What do you got for us? Mary?

1655
01:27:56,320 --> 01:27:57,320
Speaker 7: Hi? Guys, how are you?

1656
01:27:57,520 --> 01:27:57,880
Speaker 2: We're doing?

1657
01:27:57,920 --> 01:27:58,240
Speaker 4: Okay?

1658
01:28:00,400 --> 01:28:04,000
Speaker 16: Just a couple comments. There is Wagman's here in North Carolina.

1659
01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:06,519
Speaker 2: Oh cool, they do go for There are one.

1660
01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:08,080
Speaker 16: Hundredth stores here in Raleigh.

1661
01:28:08,280 --> 01:28:08,960
Speaker 2: Oh that's awesome.

1662
01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:11,920
Speaker 16: And Maddie, did you get your blue boots yet?

1663
01:28:12,120 --> 01:28:15,640
Speaker 2: Maddy had to step out, she had another thing to do.

1664
01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:17,080
Speaker 2: As we told you, we have like five or six

1665
01:28:17,120 --> 01:28:17,720
Speaker 2: things to still do.

1666
01:28:18,680 --> 01:28:20,840
Speaker 10: Sorry, Okay, that's okay.

1667
01:28:21,920 --> 01:28:24,680
Speaker 16: I was watching the game last night until you know

1668
01:28:24,720 --> 01:28:29,040
Speaker 16: the weather delay, But basically Hurts looked like Joshua because

1669
01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:33,040
Speaker 16: he was carrying the team on his back that second quarter.

1670
01:28:34,160 --> 01:28:37,400
Speaker 16: So I agree with you guys, but I like twenty

1671
01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:39,040
Speaker 16: four twenty bills.

1672
01:28:39,200 --> 01:28:42,080
Speaker 10: Okay, all right, thanks Chris, take care of you.

1673
01:28:42,760 --> 01:28:45,479
Speaker 2: Thanks Mary for the phone call, uh, and the update

1674
01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:47,400
Speaker 2: on the good people at Wegman's opening the store in

1675
01:28:47,439 --> 01:28:51,519
Speaker 2: North Carolina, so they do go further south in Virginia. Yeah,

1676
01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:55,519
Speaker 2: I get I get what you're saying. And I do

1677
01:28:55,600 --> 01:29:00,800
Speaker 2: think that the run game is is really going to

1678
01:29:00,800 --> 01:29:03,360
Speaker 2: be instrumental in this one. And I think whoever runs

1679
01:29:03,400 --> 01:29:06,680
Speaker 2: it more effectively is going to find themselves ahead on

1680
01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:11,000
Speaker 2: the scoreboard because you're providing balance to your all world quarterback.

1681
01:29:12,560 --> 01:29:16,559
Speaker 2: So James Cook and that old line, if they can

1682
01:29:16,600 --> 01:29:18,639
Speaker 2: have a day kind of like the day they had

1683
01:29:18,640 --> 01:29:21,960
Speaker 2: in the playoff game, that's good because as we know,

1684
01:29:22,439 --> 01:29:26,880
Speaker 2: when the Ravens get up on opponents, they steamroll. That's

1685
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:29,840
Speaker 2: usually how it works, and that's usually how their games

1686
01:29:29,840 --> 01:29:31,719
Speaker 2: turn out when they get off to a fast start,

1687
01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:34,120
Speaker 2: so try to neutralize that as best you can and

1688
01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:36,719
Speaker 2: take it from there. That's it for us this week.

1689
01:29:37,160 --> 01:29:40,000
Speaker 2: Enjoy the game. On Sunday night, Steve and I will

1690
01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:43,479
Speaker 2: be back here for a three hour Monday show starting

1691
01:29:43,600 --> 01:29:46,439
Speaker 2: at noon, so be sure to join us. Then enjoy

1692
01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:46,760
Speaker 2: the game.
