Hi, everybody, 25 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: welcome to One Bills Drive. Welcome to One Bills Live. 26 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: I'm John Murphy. This is Team Tasker here on this Friday, 27 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: the day after the preseason is over. Let's bury the 28 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: preseason today. Four games and it was fun and last 29 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: night was really fun. See it was a fun way 30 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: to end. You confess to me, you like call it quits, 31 00:01:54,360 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: like guy gods. I usually went until the little last 32 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: dog is hung. But last night, a couple of minutes 33 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: left in the fourth quarter, Bill's trailing. I mean they 34 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: were down by a lot. They were down twenty three thirteen. Yeah, 35 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: after the you know, after the touchdown drive that you 36 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,920 Speaker 1: just did the year down twenty three to six, twenty 37 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 1: three to six at one time, fourth quarter with less 38 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: than four minutes, with four minutes ago. So I said, yeah, 39 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: well there'll be three and one of the preseason and 40 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: the Vikings will be four and oh, and I was wrong. 41 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: I never do that, and I've learned to value a lesson. 42 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: Don't do that until you're sure. I thought. I thought 43 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 1: it was certain that it was over. I really did. 44 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,799 Speaker 1: But there and it was Marcus Murphy's punt returned that 45 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 1: sort of ignited the plane, don't you agree? Right? They 46 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: got they got the late touchdown from Tyree on the 47 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 1: one that you just did where he fumbled it, and 48 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 1: they actually gave the touchdown to Tyree after after the 49 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 1: game when they went back and looked at it. He 50 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: broke the plane with the ball in this possession. Then 51 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: the fumble into the end zone was inconsequential, and then 52 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: you know, Bills come out get a nice stop, and 53 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: the and the course the Vikings, you know, they pulled 54 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: the plug, just handed it off three times and then 55 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: punted it away, and of course then Marcus Murphy nighted everybody. 56 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,399 Speaker 1: And then you're like, wow, it's three twenty eight left. 57 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,239 Speaker 1: I think when the when the Vikes got the ball 58 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: back and the Bills had no timeouts, and wow, it 59 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: was what a way to finished, What a way to finished? 60 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: I thought too. I thought it was pretty telling. We 61 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: said this on our broadcast, and I'm probably I'm sure 62 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: Eric would. I haven't chanced. I didn't listen to your broadcast, 63 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 1: but I knew that when they got down to where 64 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: it was the fourth quarter, they were gonna give it 65 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: have a chance to try and come back. We're gonna 66 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: give Tyree Jackson a chance to come back. Brian Dable said, Okay, 67 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: here you go five wide or four wides and one 68 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: back one of the two and go shot gun and 69 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: let's go. Let's see what you got, you know. And 70 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: they turned him loose a little bit, and he ran 71 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: the ball, kept him alive, stand on the field, got 72 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: that touchdown, and then it came back on that last 73 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: drive with less than a minute to go. Yeah, one 74 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: on one, Yeah, and and got it done. You know, 75 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: I was thinking about that. Two things that you said 76 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: that they got me thinking about that, about that and 77 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: something else. I want to get to Tyree Jackson, and 78 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: you're right, they kind of turned him loose, and it's 79 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: a game one on and even going into the last 80 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: night's game, I recall sent into Eric went on our broadcast, 81 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: this game will get ugly at some point, and I 82 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: wonder if that will play into the hands of Tyree Jackson. 83 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: You know what I mean, just sort of an unstructured 84 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: let's just go out and play ball, because in the 85 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: last couple of minutes of the fourth quarter, that's what 86 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: it was. As you said, the Vikings did pretty much 87 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: h pulled the plug and the bills were like, let's 88 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: let's go for broke, Let's just try it. Let's just 89 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: played into the hands or maybe the skill set for Tyree. 90 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: We were driving home and Catalan and I were driving 91 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,679 Speaker 1: home after the TV broadcast, and we were talking about 92 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 1: what Tyree had looked like, and you know it, at 93 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 1: times last night it did look like it was too 94 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: much for him. You know, he couldn't had trouble finding things, 95 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: and you know, he had trouble avoid keeping his eyes 96 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: off the rush once. So while he looked a little bit, oh, 97 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: he looked like a rookie quarterback. And to me, Catalan 98 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: said this to me on the way home. He says, 99 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 1: you know what a as unsure at times as Tyree 100 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: looked last night, and where he relied on his legs 101 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: too much, you know a little bit where he tried 102 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: to outrun guys and couldn't quite get it done. A 103 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 1: lot of people outside of Buffalo think that's exactly what 104 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: Josh Allen does. And I don't even think that. And 105 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 1: now I don't see that, right, But there's a lot 106 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: of people who think that's exactly the kind of quarterback 107 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: Josh Allen is now and it's not you know, from 108 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: around the country. Do you think that's true. I think 109 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 1: that there's a sense of maybe around the country that 110 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: Josh plays kind of loose, you know, and off the cuff, 111 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: and he doesn't, especially this summer, this preseason, he is not, 112 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: and he's kind of grown away from that. Tyree Jacson 113 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: is fun and he's a really good, great athlete. But 114 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: Josh Allen is a He's a quality quarterback. I think 115 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: he really is. I mean, he's got skills, he's got 116 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: the head, and he's got the temperament. He's he's mileth 117 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 1: ahead of Tyres. Certainly last year in the game against 118 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: Minnesota last year Week three, maybe maybe Josh Allen did 119 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: look a little bit like that, right, jumping over linebackers 120 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: sort of thing. Yeah, but now it's that's not him. 121 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: That's not him. But I'll take Tyree completed sixty six 122 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: percent of his passes in the win, and certainly Every 123 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: snap he took was out a shotgun. He still needs 124 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: you know, he's still got to do more things well 125 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: to be an NFL quarterback. He's a project, still is. 126 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: But he showed something last night about why people think 127 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 1: he could be a good quarterback some day. Man, it 128 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: was fun last night. Now let me bring this up 129 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: to you and Eric whit and I got into this 130 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: a little bit last night as the comeback was on 131 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: in Earnest. What Look, I know it's only preseason. Four 132 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: and own preseason is fun. Last night was fun. Four 133 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: and oh is good better than O four, better than 134 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 1: one and three, better than three and one, which I 135 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: thought they were targeted for. But it doesn't mean much. 136 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,799 Speaker 1: I acknowledge that. I accept that. But this might mean something, Steve, 137 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 1: the fact that all the way down the roster, the 138 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: player number eighty eight last night, they care about winning 139 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: and they care about each other. It's it's obvious if 140 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: you're there or watching on TV. There's Look, I'm not 141 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: predicting anything. I'm not predicting anything. I just am here 142 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: to say that I've been around a lot of these 143 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: teams over the years, and there is something special about 144 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: this Buffalo Bills team. In twenty nineteen. There's now it 145 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: could fade away, right, it could get smacked out of 146 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: them September eighth and MetLife Stadium. But as of right now, 147 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: and really since the start of bringing players back here 148 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: in May, April and May, there's a little spark about 149 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: this team. There's something going on here. I will. I 150 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: do think if you've been around them at all, you 151 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: see that. And I think that comeback last night was 152 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: emblematic of that. There's a lot of people who who 153 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: pooh pooh this notion that you can be better than 154 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: some of your parts. Certainly they see it happen once 155 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: in a while where you see some guys who don't 156 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: look all that individually, don't look all that great, but 157 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, they win a game or two 158 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: that they're not supposed to win, and you think, okay, 159 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: they came to it. If there's any truth to that, 160 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: I think this Buffalo Bills team this year has a 161 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: chance to prove it because that's exactly what they are. 162 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: They're a really close knit group of guys, and they'll 163 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: tell you that they don't have any real stars on 164 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: this team. You can make a case for Frank Goren 165 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy. But you know, those guys are been called 166 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: too old to play. They're they're no longer the guys 167 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: they used to be there. They're they're past their prime 168 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: as it were. And they're really the only two recognizable 169 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: names on this roster that people around the league would say, Oh, yeah, 170 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: those guys, I know those guys. That's it. It's not 171 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: a star driven team. Now, there's guys on the team 172 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: that may become stars. You can think of a handful 173 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: of them off the top of your head. But right now, 174 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: this is a year where if this team goes on 175 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: and does you know, whatever wonderful things you're gonna have, 176 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: you have to think at this point that that cohesiveness 177 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 1: and that team atmosphere and that camaraderie and all the 178 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: chemistry whatever you want to call it, whatever that is, 179 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 1: that's gonna have to be a big part of it 180 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: at this point. And I get it. People want to 181 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: people say that, and they're right. You do need talent. 182 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: The bills, you know, mcdermotan being acknowledged. What did they say, 183 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,319 Speaker 1: you gotta have your chin above the bar talent wise, Yeah, 184 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: that's what McDermot said. Is in the production meeting. He's right. 185 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: You gotta have talent, there's no question. But you're also 186 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: to be successful. I think ultimately gotta have some chemistry. 187 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: You gotta have a team ethos, you know, gotta have 188 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 1: like a culture. And I think it's evident last night's 189 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: evident to come back with those three touchdowns in the 190 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, it's evident that there's something brewing here. I 191 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 1: really think that's true. I don't mean I don't want to. 192 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say twelve win super Bowl, but I'm 193 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: gonna say, keep an eye on this. There's gonna be 194 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: times in the season when it makes a difference. Yeah, 195 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: you know. And here's the thing. When during a football 196 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: see sixteen game season, it's a long season. Something always 197 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: goes wrong for every team, from the Patriots all the 198 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: way down to the O and sixteen Lions from whenever 199 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: it was they were, you know, every team, things go wrong. 200 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: When you've got a chemistry atmosph an atmosphere, a team concept, 201 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: whatever it is, your players dig deeper in the dark 202 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: times than they do otherwise. They don't just push back 203 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: from the table and say, Okay, I'm gonna get out 204 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: of this season. I'm gonna make sure I finish healthy. 205 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 1: I'm gonna see out for myself, look out for I'm 206 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: gonna get my own career. I'm gonna get my contracts set, 207 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: I'm you know whatever, whatever, you know, I'm gonna be 208 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: in it. When it's the other way, when it's all 209 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: about each other. Things like last night happen when you're 210 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 1: down two three scores with four minutes to go and 211 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: you win. You know, that kind of stuff happens. I'm 212 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: not saying, you know, they're gonna never gonna lose a 213 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: game this year. That's crazy talk. But I think there's 214 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 1: gonna be instances during this next season, this coming season 215 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: that starts a week from Sunday where you're gonna be 216 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: able to look at this team and say, you know what, 217 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 1: that's the reason they won that game is because they 218 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: like each other. They love each other. There's that atmosphere, 219 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: that culture, that DNA that Sean mcdermot's looking for. And 220 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 1: he knows this too. And I've heard a bunch of 221 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: guys say it, head coaches. I'm talking about where they say, 222 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: you know, you want a ton of guys who are 223 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: great dudes, great locker room guys. Team guys. You want 224 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: guys who are you know they got they got a 225 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: wife and kids. They're solid. You know, they're paying the 226 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 1: mortgage on time that you hillity bills are paige. You 227 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 1: know they're paying the paper boy. You know they're they're 228 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: a good guy, you know all that stuff. And then 229 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: they say you always need a handful of guys. You 230 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,599 Speaker 1: just hope they show up because there they give you 231 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: that attitude. Right they're the guys that you just hope 232 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: don't get into a bar fight that night because they might. Right. Well, 233 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: that Sean McDermott referred to that. He goes, he goes, 234 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: I know we've got all We've got this group of guys. 235 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,719 Speaker 1: They all seem to have this DNA that we're looking for. 236 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,199 Speaker 1: And then he said, he goes, I know, though, two, 237 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: you gotta have your chin above the bar on that 238 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: tough scale. You got to bring something, an attitude, you know, 239 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: he goes, he goes, And that was the thing he said, 240 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: I hope you know we're gonna look for guys. That's 241 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,599 Speaker 1: why they always talk about like guys like Feliciano, and 242 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: why I talk about Duke Williams, guys who seem like, 243 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: you know, if you look at them wrong, they will 244 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 1: slap yet playing with an edge, Yeah, they play with 245 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: an edge. And and I think that is something that 246 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 1: this coaching staff right now, with all these guys on 247 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 1: the team where there this is such a love fest 248 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 1: over there. They're making sure they're not gonna go where 249 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 1: some team comes out hits them in the mouth and 250 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:09,079 Speaker 1: they turn the other cheek. You know, that's fine, you 251 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: know when you're with the family, but when you're on 252 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,599 Speaker 1: the football field, you need somebody's gonna slap theirs, you know. 253 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,599 Speaker 1: So that's a that's a big issue now because this 254 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: is last night was like, wow, look at these guys. Yeah, 255 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: look at these guys. If you witness it, you would 256 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: have to acknowledge it. And look, I know, the hard edged, 257 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: bitter reporters and others who follow this team will say 258 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: they're ridiculous us too. They'll say what you gotta have 259 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,559 Speaker 1: talid And and there are analytics people who'll get buried 260 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: in the numbers and say, well, look look how bad 261 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: they are throwing the ball. This team has no chance. 262 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: Look at those numbers from last year. I get all 263 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 1: that and laugh at us if you want. I'm just 264 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: saying it. Makes a difference. I do too. I don't 265 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: take myself through seriously at all, but it makes a difference. 266 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: And it was on display last night. It has been 267 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 1: on display a couple of times, including Christian Wade against 268 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 1: the Colts four weeks ago, three weeks ago. It's on 269 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: display the culture that they've established here. It doesn't mean 270 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: they win twelve games or thirteen games. It means that 271 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: something brewing here and that's the best. It means there's 272 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: gonna be instances where you're gonna it's gonna make a difference. 273 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: Maybe not win three games in a row for him, 274 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: but maybe in a tough spot, it does get him 275 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: out of out of a game with a win. Sometimes 276 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: one of our what are our shooters? Last night, Kevin 277 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: Carr is one of the guys you whose name you 278 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: read at the end of the show, is shooting some 279 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,599 Speaker 1: stuff practicing. He caught Marcus Murphy's punt return for a 280 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: touchdown from the end zone where he was running and 281 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: he swung at him, coming at him and as he went, well, 282 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:37,079 Speaker 1: I don't know if we're gonna get it or not. 283 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: We'll have to look for it. I'm gonna say, because 284 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: he's running down the sideline and you can see the 285 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 1: Bill's sidelined behind him, who's running along the sidelines. But 286 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: Dion Dawkins the left tackles and shorts and a jersey. 287 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: He's not even playing and he's running down the sidelines 288 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: hyped for Marcus Murphy. Yep, yea look. And if you're 289 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,319 Speaker 1: watching coming here to MG here MSGP viewers can see it. 290 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: But you know, you got these guys on the side 291 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: and the fans there's like they're like three deep on 292 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: the stands, like there's nobody in the stadium. Right it's 293 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: a fourth quarter and something, and now the stands are 294 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: standing up. You got coaches jumping up and down, guys 295 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: grabbing their headset Farwell's running and Dion Dawkins in a 296 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: red short and red shorts in his jersey and tennis 297 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: Shore's no socks, is like like sprinting like Hussein bolt 298 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: down the sidelines trying to keep up. I mean, that's 299 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: it was just a blast to see, you know, And 300 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what it's gonna mean in the big picture. 301 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: At the end of the season, when they've played sixteen games, 302 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: you look back at this and say, wow, what it 303 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: was A thumbs up or thumbs down season or whatever. 304 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: But man, oh man, it sure makes this team fun. 305 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: It was fun, and I think it bodes well for 306 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 1: the future. And again I'm not gonna say it means victories. Look, 307 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: I get it. You need talent, you need good coaching decisions, 308 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: you need sound decision making, you need good quarterback play, 309 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: you need all of that. But you also need the 310 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: kind of chemistry that they see seem to put on 311 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: display a couple of times during this preseason. I think 312 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: it's been a couple of instances, including that twenty one 313 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 1: one point comeback with half of the fourth quarter left 314 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: to go last night. And I'll tell you this too, 315 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: Tyree Jackson throws the in the touchdown pass to David 316 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: Sills at the end of the game, he's coming off 317 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 1: the field, Josh Allen is go is jumping all over 318 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: him like a cheerleader. He just like totally jumping up 319 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: on him. It was totally happy for him. Couldn't have 320 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: been better for him, you know. And uh and I 321 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: said this last night on our broadcast. We showed it 322 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: on the on the broadcast, I said, you know, from 323 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: the top of the roster where he got tremade Edmonds 324 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: and Josh Allen, all those guys, you know, Sean McCoy all. 325 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: Because all the way down through these guys who were 326 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: playing in the fourth quarter the last preseason game, they 327 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: are totally cheering and on board with each other.

I just wanted to make the 359 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: point that I've kind of felt that I love in 360 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: the last three years. Some Sean took over um the 361 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 1: team for the last two years. It's really over a 362 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: chance UM and I feel like the players just trying 363 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 1: to take you know, the embodying with their coach is 364 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 1: um and they you know, these lacked the tale of 365 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. I think they've got the 366 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: tale of this year. I thinks some good things are 367 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: ahead for this team. I agree with you, Craig, who knows. 368 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: I mean, we're sitting here everybody zero and zero today 369 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 1: and we're talking about which good players the Bills aren't 370 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: going to have on their team, you know. I mean, 371 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna get rid of some talented players who have 372 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: worked really hard, and it's it's hard to say goodbye 373 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,360 Speaker 1: to these guys. But right now you're thinking, right how 374 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: is this going to affect their game against the New 375 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: York Jets. I Mean, now the focus totally turns on 376 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: Week one. They're going to be healthy with Mitch Morse 377 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: went in Spain back on the field, tie and Seky's 378 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: gonna get back on the field. They're gonna have their 379 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: offensive linemen in there, uh and ready to go for 380 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: the first week. Uh. And we'll see if this chemistry 381 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: that seems to be so prevalent on this roster is 382 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: going to carry over into Week one, and probably will, 383 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: but it's a you know, we're gonna we're gonna do 384 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: this show today talking about this game yesterday and wrapping 385 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: that up and talking about who or may or what 386 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: might happen, this chemistry that seems to be going, this 387 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: love fest that happened through this this preseason, and all 388 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: these cuts are gonna happen at four o'clock on Saturday, 389 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 1: and then the waiver wires is noon on Sunday, or 390 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: is at four o'clock on Sunday as well, where they're 391 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: gonna settle it in. And then on Monday, you still 392 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: may have teams. Even the Bills was tinkering with the 393 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: last guys on their roster, the last two or three 394 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: guys on the roster, and then they shift gears and 395 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 1: it's all it's all about the New York Jets. And 396 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,640 Speaker 1: it's week one and and this this weekend turns into 397 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 1: you know, you know just what it is, just a 398 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: rough memory that you got to live through and makes 399 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: some tough decision you got to live through. What else 400 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: you got, Craig, That was basically it, you know, I mean, 401 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: you made the point of the pudding talent. I do 402 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: feel like this is one of the first years that 403 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: I've looked at as I thought man's gonna have to 404 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 1: lose some white receivers and running backs that are gonna 405 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: end up buying all their rosters to how good they are. 406 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: So they've done a good job of bringing there's there's 407 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: been other years in the past and I couldn't I 408 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: couldn't name him off the top of my head where 409 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: they've had like maybe one position or you know where 410 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 1: they've had too many guys where they've had to release 411 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: a guy that maybe got went to another team. But 412 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 1: there's a couple of positions this year offensive line. Him. 413 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: He saw him trade away Wyatt Teller yesterday. He's gonna play. 414 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: He'll probably play a little bit for the Browns. Maybe 415 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: we think he probably could. He's a big dude, he's strong, 416 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 1: does some pretty things pretty well. Uh. And I he 417 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: was a guy that man with the upgrades they have 418 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 1: all around him, he was a bubble guy and they 419 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: felt like they could replace him, and they did and 420 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: got a couple of draft picks for him that you know, 421 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: things like that, the wide receivers, the running back acts. 422 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,959 Speaker 1: You know, and you think now the tight ends, if 423 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 1: they keep five, that means crew will make it. Croft 424 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: is gonna be active. You got the two rookies and 425 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: Lee Smith. Any one of those five guys, if they 426 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: get released, they're gonna be with an NFL team. So 427 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: that's you know, that position as well as running back 428 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 1: and as wide receiver. We've we've gone back and forth 429 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: a lot about which guys they're gonna keep and which 430 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: ones are gonna release. So yeah, it's the first time 431 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: in a while where you've got multiple positions where you 432 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: think maybe some guys are gonna get cut that will 433 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: end up on an NFL roster. When we're in past 434 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: years maybe have one position group. Yeah, and we'll talk 435 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:36,399 Speaker 1: about a lot of this. We want to get you 436 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: involved in our Twitter poll too. And by the way, 437 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: and I brought it up, I believe in that chemistry 438 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: culture thing, but I don't want to make too much 439 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 1: out of it. And we'll take more calls on that. 440 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: But let's talk about cuts for a second. All right. 441 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 1: You're saying, well, you started it because I believe it, 442 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: and it needed to be set. The one it was 443 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 1: the one glaring thing that jumped out about that team 444 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: yesterday that that was even more so than the plays 445 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: that Tyree Jackson made and Nick easily made and the 446 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: catch that Sills made and the punt return to Marcus 447 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: Murphy made. It was the team's reaction. Yep, and there, 448 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: and they're willing, all these guys willingness to say, you 449 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: know what, I'm it's four minutes to go in the 450 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: fourth preseason game, let's go.

That Again, I don't want to make 453 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: too much out of it.

He's cleared that, which we're very happy with. 480 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 1: We tried to, you know, make sure everybody took that 481 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 1: slope and make sure he was ready for the season. 482 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 1: But we've had him out there with the guys, working 483 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: with Josh the last week, which just helped.

I have on my laptop 496 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: here the steps of concussion protocol, what it means, the 497 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: four or five stages. And I guess I didn't know 498 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 1: you could practice fully for a while and still be 499 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: in protocol. I didn't know that until Mitch Moore this year. 500 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: He's out now, and that's good, Steve. He is the 501 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: lynchpin everything every time you think about the Buffalo offensive line, 502 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: and we've done it for five weeks now since camp began. 503 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: You start with him right and you kind of build 504 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: around him. And now we learned that he's out of 505 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: concussion protocol and ready to play against the Jets. Next week. Yeah, 506 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: and it's he is the first guy, the one offensive 507 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 1: lineman they went out and got. He was a little 508 00:23:58,480 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: bit of a surprise for a lot of us because 509 00:23:59,920 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: we didn't know about Mitch Morse. He was a Kansas 510 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: City Chiefs center last year and you know, and when 511 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: That's why this was such a huge kind of scare 512 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 1: for a lot of fans because he missed five games 513 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: last year with a concussion, but he did play in 514 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: the last two postseason games. He played in the Division 515 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: round of the playoffs and the AFC Championship game for 516 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. And we've heard from the guys in Kansas City. Listen, man, 517 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,680 Speaker 1: when he was he's healthy, he's a really good player. 518 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: The Bills targeted him and here he is now he's 519 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 1: back at it for the Buffalo Bills. We've been waiting 520 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 1: on him and I'm interested to see how that changes 521 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 1: things up front. Is Ford gonna play right guard or 522 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 1: right tackle? Is Inseci gonna be ready to go? That's 523 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: a big question. And but with him going, yeah, that 524 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 1: changes your thoughts about the offensive line in a big 525 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 1: way to me, absolutely, And um, maybe it changes what 526 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 1: you think about Maybe it's something that being said and 527 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: changed with to think about tight ends and how these 528 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 1: cuts come down, because he talked about Tyler Croft, who 529 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: has been out since the springtime right with a broken 530 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: bone in his foot. But random mean, he had a 531 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: brief update on Tyler Craft last night during the broadcast 532 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 1: the Bills in the Minnesota Vikings. Oh, we don't have 533 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: sound here, Okay, what did he say? He said he's 534 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: optimistic he might be on the fifty three, which means, 535 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if it means exactly he's gonna be 536 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 1: ready to play against the New York Jets, but he 537 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: is gonna be on the fifty three, so they're not 538 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 1: gonna put him on the pup list. He's gonna be 539 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: ready to go sooner than the six weeks they would 540 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 1: have to give him for the pup So that's a 541 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 1: little ahead of I think that's a little ahead of 542 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 1: where they thought he was. They were very optimistic about it, 543 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: and I'm not sure. We're still not sure exactly what 544 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 1: that means for this week's practice or whether he's going 545 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 1: to be on the field actually for the first couple 546 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 1: of weeks or month of the season, But that does 547 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: mean they're expecting him back on the field playing before 548 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 1: week six of the regulars. It's good. Hey, what do 549 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: you think a surprise player on the roster, who do 550 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: you think is going to survive these cuts this weekend 551 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: and be on the Buffalo roster a week from Sunday. 552 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: Give us a call of discuss eight three fifty toll 553 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: free one eight eight eighty fifty two five fifty. You 554 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 1: can respond to our discussion, Steven. My discussion earlier on 555 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: about culture chemistry, a special vibe around this team this year. 556 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: Maybe you think that's bologny. I'm willing to listen to 557 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: people who tell me, you, guys, it's all about talent. 558 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: It's all about how Josh plays. The culture chemistry you're 559 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: talking about that doesn't mean squat. Go ahead and tell 560 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: me that I can handle that, can you. I'm not 561 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: gonna you can't handle the true I meditate you. I 562 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: think you'll bite their head off. And but that's just me. 563 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: Give us a call. You know. One of the things 564 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: that happened after this game last night. People have seen 565 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,360 Speaker 1: everything we've seen. We talk about it every day, Murph. 566 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: We were optimistic right after the seasons. We were optimistic 567 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,439 Speaker 1: when they get hit free agency and got Mitch Morrison, 568 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: got John Brown, got Cole Beasley, got these guys that 569 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 1: were like, wow, this they're gonna help. After the draft 570 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 1: ed Oliver Cody Ford, and then the two tight ends 571 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 1: they got in the draft that have turned out to 572 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 1: be even better than advertised, or at least in me, 573 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 1: Devin Singletary, who has shown up. So you got all 574 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: this that seems to have gone wrong. The preseason has 575 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 1: gone extremely well. They're four and oh in the preseason. 576 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: For goodness sakes, how good could this offseason have gone? 577 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: So now I'm watching this game last night. They bounced 578 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: back in the fourth quarter of a preseason game when 579 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: the veterans were probably in my day, some of the 580 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 1: veterans would have been like halfway to the locker room 581 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: the right and they would have back. They would have 582 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: been watching the game, backing into the locker room as 583 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:25,959 Speaker 1: the game was winding down. These guys are out there 584 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: jumping up and down, waving towels up in the air. 585 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: They're cheering for these guys. All right, so this, you 586 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: know all it couldn't be better. So now I'm wanting 587 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 1: and everybody who has chimed into me on social media 588 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: and all that are are saying, Okay, the only thing 589 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: we have to do now, we've got to beat New 590 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: England Patriots. That is the only hurdle left for this franchise. 591 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: Let's get right. I'm like, that's what I said.

Call from 612 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: Time and forty are Hello, Tim, Welcome to the show. 613 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 1: Hey Murph, how's it going, mister Tasker? I have to 614 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: say I'm the type of fan that watches every snap 615 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 1: of the preseason. I call into one does live all 616 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: the time. I'm the type of fan that, you know, 617 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: I really follow the team. And even if you're an 618 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: outsider looking in at this team right now, you can't 619 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: deny what they're building and seeing that kind of excitement, 620 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: general excitement, even when our second kicker kick that long 621 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: field goal, just the general happiness on the sideline. It's 622 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: it's really something to watch, and it's, uh, you know, 623 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: take it for what it's worth, I guess, but I 624 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 1: think they're building something strong here and I'm really excited 625 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: to see what's gonna carry through this whole process. Yeah, 626 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: good point, Time, And I don't know what it's worth. 627 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: I see it. You see it. Outsiders, we see it. 628 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: We see that sort of chemistry, and that's my initial 629 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: point here. It's it's tangible, right, the chemistry and the 630 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: good vibes and the kind of the internal buzz about 631 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: this team. Is that worth a win or two? I 632 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: don't know, because, as Steve pointed out, they'll get smacked 633 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: by somebody. They'll be setbacks, they'll be injuries, they'll be 634 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: bad calls, they'll be bad throws, the mistackles. It's coming sixteen, 635 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: will be bad challenges, Yeah, they'll be. Yeah, there'll be rainstorms, 636 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 1: I know, opening Day like last you know, yeah, it's coming. 637 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: But I think that chemistry kind of helps you survive 638 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: and maybe overcome some of the smaller mishaps. You know, 639 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: you'll overcome a bad call in the in the late 640 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 1: in the third quarter, you'll have time to do that. 641 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: You'll have you know, you'll be able to come back, 642 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: you know, and you know from being a couple of 643 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: scores down in the second half of a fourth quarter 644 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 1: once maybe once in the season. And then maybe there'll 645 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: be times where you have a week like the Bills 646 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: did Week seventeen last year, where your quarterback throws for 647 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: three touchdown runs for two, and your defense is you know, 648 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: you're lumping them up. Maybe it leads to some games 649 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: like that too that it works both ways. But you'll see. Yeah, 650 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: give us a call. Let's discuss is that in your mind? 651 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: Does that mean anything? What happened last night?

Nothing comes close. We're back in 663 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: a moment. Welcome back to our Seneca studio. John Murphy, 664 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,479 Speaker 1: Steve Tasker, One Bills Live from one Bals Drive. I'm 665 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: happy to have you with us here today the day 666 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: after the preseason ends and nine days before the regular 667 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: season begins, and about twenty three or four six hours 668 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 1: until cutdown. But yeah, forget all they're happening. Get to 669 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: the thing. Go ahead, man, This just happened. This just 670 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: happened while we were in break. Russell. The Bills are 671 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: talking to the Patriots and trade more than talking more 672 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: than it appears that the Bills are gonna trade, make 673 00:31:56,600 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 1: a player trade with their in division rivals, that New 674 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: England Patriots. They're gonna send center Russ Bodine to the 675 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: New England Patriots in exchange for what we've heard now 676 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: were not for sure a sixth round pick. And I'm 677 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: not sure what year that sixth round pick is. Maybe 678 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: it's this year. But the Patriots are gonna get Russell 679 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: Bodine and the Bills get a sixth round pick. Now, 680 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: the reason is that I don't think Russell Bowen I 681 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: was gonna make the team. But the reason the Patriots 682 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 1: don't wait till he gets cut is because he might 683 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: get a better offer from another team. They want to 684 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: make sure they've got his contracts. So if the Bills 685 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: trade Bodine while he's still on the roster, the Patriots 686 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: got him and they are in dire. This is a 687 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: third trade they've made for an offensive lineman this week. 688 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: Speaking of the New England Patriots, the trade reported by 689 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: Adam Schefter and Marsilla Luis Jacques of ESPN covering the 690 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: Bills in Buffalo. The Bills reportedly, according to Adam Schefter, 691 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 1: trading center Russell Bodine to the Patriots. Ian Rappaport of 692 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: NFL dot Com says they get a sixth round pick. 693 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what year in return. We're gonna talk 694 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: about that. But there are other reports of cuts now. Again, 695 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 1: the cuts officially take place tomorrow at four pm, but 696 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 1: as you know, agents talk, and the Bills are talking 697 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: to these players and their agents right now, and there 698 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: are a couple of reported cuts that are out there already, 699 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: including Rocky wide receiver Nick Easley. I would think he's 700 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: a strong candidate for the practice squad, the Iowa receiver 701 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: at a big catch last night, offensive lineman Demetrius Rainey, 702 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: who played a lot of snaps last night, and tight 703 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 1: end Keith Tobridge. Reportedly, according to Matthew Fairburn and Ryan Talbot, reportedly, 704 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 1: those three have been cut by the Bills. But back 705 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: to Bodine for a second, it's, as you said, Steve 706 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 1: the third offensive lineman. The Patriots are traded four this week. 707 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: It says something about where New England's at where their 708 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: head is at when they trade a draft pick for 709 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: a player that the Bills are ready to release. Right, 710 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's a chance in the guard. I 711 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: don't know, but it means something, well, like they're that desperate. 712 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: They got blindsided, much like the Bills did two years 713 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 1: ago when they lost Eric Wood. Guy got injured and 714 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: it turned into a complicated injury that was dangerous. And 715 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: they're starting center who they were counting on just got 716 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 1: plucked right off their ross stands David Andrews, and so 717 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: they got you know, they got caught. And now they're 718 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: they're trying to cover that, cover that gap in their 719 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: roster anyway they can, and they're they're casting a wide 720 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: net obviously. Um, the fact that you know the fact 721 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 1: that the Bills trade him in division, does it mean anything? 722 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: I mean, it's only you know, it's a draft pick 723 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,319 Speaker 1: coming back at some point. Yeah, what do you think? 724 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: I don't think. Look, they're ready to release. Yeah, they're 725 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: ready to release Russell Bonain right just they know him, 726 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: you know. Um, I guess it's for those of you 727 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: who can't get why we're hesitant and questioning this is 728 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: you don't want to help the guys you gotta beat, 729 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: and the Patriots have been the people to beat in 730 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 1: this division for a long long time. And to give 731 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 1: them a player that was on your team right before 732 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: the opening day at camp or open the you know, 733 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 1: opening week of the season, it just doesn't happen very often. So, 734 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 1: either the Bills were definitely going to release Russell bow 735 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 1: and there's listen, there's no nothing that says the Bills 736 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: We're gonna release Russell Bodine. He'd signed with the Miami 737 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,800 Speaker 1: Dolphins or the New York Jets either, let alone the 738 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,360 Speaker 1: New England Patriots. So there's that as well. But he 739 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 1: was definitely obviously not gonna be on the Bills roster. 740 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 1: And now Russ Bodine has a place to play in 741 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 1: New England. Perhaps that's interesting. Russell Bodine, according to Adam Schefter, 742 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: traded to the Patriots. Ian Rappaport says, the Bills get 743 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,840 Speaker 1: a six round draft pick in return. You can react 744 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 1: to that as a twenty twenty twenty twenty that's this 745 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: coming draft. So the Bills have over the last forty 746 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 1: eight hours, We've got three more picks in the twenty 747 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 1: twenty draft. They had six to begin with, now they'll 748 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: have they gave one up, so they got Now they 749 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: have eight picks in that draft. Less, don't you think 750 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 1: of that? Or the yesterday's game, or who's going to 751 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 1: be a surprise player in the Buffalo roster?

Just wanted to put out there 757 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:07,800 Speaker 1: the punter situation not huge on the punter that we 758 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 1: have on the roster right now. And there's a great 759 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: punter with NFL experience right here in Buffalo names Jake Schum. 760 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 1: Not sure if you heard of him. Wait, you be right, 761 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 1: he kicked it be a little bit, you be product, 762 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: graduated from Frontier High School in Hamburg. And you know 763 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,800 Speaker 1: he's a cold weather punter. He's a free agent. And 764 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 1: if you check his Twitter, and he's all over social 765 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 1: media putting YouTube videos out there. I mean, and I 766 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: heard you guys talking the other day. You want consistency 767 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: at the punter, you know, you want him to kick 768 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: fifty five yard to sixty yard punts consistently. I think 769 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 1: Jake Schum can get that done for us. A question 770 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:42,800 Speaker 1: for he's got. I know he went to camp with 771 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: the Bucks a couple of years ago. Has he been 772 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: anywhere recently? I think his last team was Green Bay 773 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:53,239 Speaker 1: on that but you know he had success in Green Bay. 774 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he played the whole season. I'm pretty sure. 775 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: But I think he would be a really good candidate. 776 00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: They should bring him in, try him out, at least, 777 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:02,919 Speaker 1: you can bet. You can bet that they probably he's 778 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:04,879 Speaker 1: on their radar. But you know that you think about 779 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,760 Speaker 1: by Orkez. Last night he had a long of sixty 780 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: six yards. It was a huge punt. Great uh. He 781 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: also lofted a one into the end zone. It flew 782 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,879 Speaker 1: it into the end zone, touchback. His net was only 783 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 1: thirty four point eight. Last night he had a twenty 784 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:22,240 Speaker 1: five yard punt. He's all. The problem with by Orkez 785 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: has has always been he's a little bit of He's 786 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,439 Speaker 1: a roller coaster. Hit sixty six yard or this time 787 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: a twenty five yard, or next time bumps one into 788 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: the end zone by mistake, and that's you know, and 789 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 1: then then he'll he'll drop one inside the fifteen. You know, 790 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 1: he'll have good and he'll have bad. Um. They're really 791 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 1: striving for somebody who can do it consistently every time. 792 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 1: They you know, even if you can't hit it sixty 793 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: six yards, if you can hit it fifty with the 794 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,320 Speaker 1: right hang time every single time, you know, that's what 795 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 1: you You need, something you can depend on as a 796 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 1: as a team. And and right now by Orkez is 797 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 1: all over the bat. Yeah, I anticipate they will be 798 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,720 Speaker 1: looking hard to bring somebody else in over this weekend. 799 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: Call here from David and Brockport. Hello, David, go ahead, 800 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: you're on the hum. Jackson's gonna make the third string 801 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 1: quarterback Kyrie Jackson. Yeah, you think he'll make the fifty three? Yeah, 802 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 1: he doesn't have signs of Josh Allen. He is signs 803 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 1: of Frank Greg's comeback. All right, Yeah, okay, Um, I 804 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 1: don't think so, but if you do, that's awesome, David, 805 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,959 Speaker 1: and I, let's face it, he hey sixty six percent 806 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:36,320 Speaker 1: of his passes last night. Um, he looked very comfortable 807 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 1: in five wide um shotgun formation. Um. But I think 808 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,840 Speaker 1: ultimately at some point they're gonna You're gonna have to 809 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 1: be able to put him under center in certain situations 810 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,239 Speaker 1: in an NFL game to get the defense to do 811 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,320 Speaker 1: some things you need him to do, and he's just 812 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 1: not ready to do that yet. He's always known that 813 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: he's been He's gonna be a project at this level, 814 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: so do the coaches. I think there was more of 815 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:03,479 Speaker 1: that on display last night. But I think he's got 816 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 1: a chance if he continues to work hard. But he's 817 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: got to work on what he doesn't do well. He 818 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 1: can't expect a team to Frank then look good under 819 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:13,840 Speaker 1: center and then he went to the shotgun and it 820 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: was hot. Yeah, that's true. That well, Frank worked a 821 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 1: lot under center, though. I mean he was good at 822 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 1: being under center as well. He did it in college 823 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,319 Speaker 1: and he also did it in the pros too, So yeah, 824 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: I mean I get it. There's certain things. Yeah, Yeah, 825 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 1: Frank was a good quarterback. That's Frank was really good. 826 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,800 Speaker 1: And he engineered the best comeback in NFL history. But 827 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,439 Speaker 1: I don't know how that. And last night was nice, 828 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 1: but it wasn't Frank Rich nice. Right, We're gonna take 829 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:42,799 Speaker 1: a break.

I love the 850 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,360 Speaker 1: way Tyree Jackson bought a little extra time. It was 851 00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 1: like a real professional quarterback thing. He stepped no step 852 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:03,239 Speaker 1: up with the pocket, you know, pockets get kind of 853 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: collapsed around behind him, stepped up and just bought himself 854 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,439 Speaker 1: a second and a half and that's all he needed 855 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: to see. David Sills, I made I made the statement 856 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 1: on the air last night. We showed the replay. He 857 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 1: stepped into this thing and it was a fast ball. 858 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, even in slow motion the thing just ye. 859 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 1: I mean they could the camera couldn't keep up with it, 860 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 1: and Sills snatched it as a great catch in traffic. 861 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:30,320 Speaker 1: He just missed the linebacker running across him. The linebacker 862 00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:34,359 Speaker 1: overran the passing lane, couldn't reach back, zipped right by 863 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 1: his hand, and from the back of the ends on 864 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,840 Speaker 1: which the MSG viewers are looking at right now, Tyree 865 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 1: steps up. This ball goes in and you'll see a 866 00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 1: Vikings defender just run right in front of Tyree just 867 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 1: before the ball is released and he just misses it. 868 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 1: It just goes right behind him and just barely missed 869 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 1: it and right on the back shoulders. Sills Sills takes 870 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,359 Speaker 1: the hit. It was nice. Yeah, it was a nice 871 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 1: play and Tyre, I can't believe how much velocity that 872 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 1: ball had on it. Pretty cool, pretty cool way to finish. 873 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,479 Speaker 1: We got reports out there right now by a couple 874 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 1: of her releases by the Bills and the big one 875 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 1: a report from Adam Schefter that the Bills are trading 876 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 1: Russell Bodine to the New England Patriots nfls NFL dot 877 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: Com Ian Rep report says it's in exchange for a 878 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:19,440 Speaker 1: six round pick next year.

Eight three fifty toll free 880 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 1: one eight eight by fifty two five fifty. Rob from 881 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 1: Rhode Island on the line with us. Hello, Rob, how 882 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: are things in Rhode Island? Well? Not bad more? How 883 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 1: are you doing doing great? Good night? I was calling 884 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 1: because this trade. I think it's good enough. I think 885 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 1: the Patriots needed I know you guys keep saying that 886 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 1: Bodein was going to be released, but it was one 887 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 1: of the things where I think something should be done. 888 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,920 Speaker 1: When I was listening the other day when you guys 889 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 1: were saying, what is one surprise that you think and 890 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,239 Speaker 1: Ski was talking about you guys getting a quarterback in 891 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: need of that one thing you guys need, and I agree. 892 00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 1: I saw that third preseason game, and I think Josh 893 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:04,359 Speaker 1: Allen he just it's not I just don't think enough 894 00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,439 Speaker 1: of him for you guys to do what you guys 895 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:09,720 Speaker 1: want him to do, and that becomes a franchise quarterback 896 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 1: for the suitable future. I would say, do something like 897 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 1: the Patriots are doing right now. You guys got a 898 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 1: need and that's a backup quarterback. And I would think 899 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: that backup quarterback should be the guy that could try 900 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 1: to move josh Allen from being the startin so I 901 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 1: think from a need point of view, Patriots doing something 902 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 1: from a need. I think this need kind of point 903 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 1: of view. From the bill side, that's what you guys 904 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 1: should be doing. I don't know Robert listen to this though. Yeah. 905 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 1: The guy who played really well in the preseason is 906 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,920 Speaker 1: the guy that's back and rush josh U Allen up 907 00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 1: all preseason. That's Matt Barkley. Barkley has played outstanding in 908 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 1: this preseason. The reason I said we should get a 909 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,359 Speaker 1: quarterbacks because you need an extra arm to get through 910 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,400 Speaker 1: the season and they need if something happens to one 911 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 1: of the quarterbacks. You gotta have a guy in standing 912 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:55,960 Speaker 1: there who knows the offense. I don't know that Tyree 913 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 1: Jackson is the guy that is going to be able 914 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 1: to run the offense the way they're going to want 915 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,720 Speaker 1: to run it. And I obviously have a better opinion 916 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:04,919 Speaker 1: about Josh than you do. And a lot of people 917 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 1: look at the interception that he threw in the destroyed 918 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 1: game as being just one more reason that he's never 919 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:15,279 Speaker 1: gonna be the quarterback that people think he's gonna be. 920 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 1: And I think I was right on the money in 921 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 1: my assessment of why he threw that ball and what 922 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 1: he was thinking when he threw it. Um, and I 923 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:25,840 Speaker 1: it doesn't bother me as much as it bothers a 924 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 1: lot of people. So UM, I don't know, Rob, I 925 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 1: get it. I do think they're probably gonna see if 926 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 1: they can upgrade the third quarterback. I don't know that 927 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,919 Speaker 1: Tyree Jackson does enough things well for them to say 928 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna make enough progress during the regular season so 929 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 1: that if something happens in week five, six, eight ten 930 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 1: of the season, we're gonna be able to put him 931 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:45,920 Speaker 1: in to a game even to finish it up. I 932 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 1: don't think they're confident he'll get there that quick if 933 00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 1: he if if they think another guy will. So that's 934 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 1: why I thought, yeah, I think, yeah, they're gonna have 935 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 1: a third guy, may maybe not on the fifty three, 936 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,640 Speaker 1: but certainly a practice squad quarterback. They need another arm 937 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 1: just to get through the regular season, having a guy 938 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 1: running the cards and stuff like that. So I think 939 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,360 Speaker 1: that'll happen. But I have a higher opinion of Josh 940 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,200 Speaker 1: obviously than you do, Rob. But thanks for the call. 941 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. It's good to hear from people in 942 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 1: Rhode Island if they do have an accent. William and 943 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:20,239 Speaker 1: burning name Alabama. Hi William, you're on the air of this, Hey, 944 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:22,760 Speaker 1: Steve and task I all do and the first time caller, 945 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 1: I just kind of want to speak to being and 946 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 1: you know, for guys like the offensive line and Teller 947 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:30,879 Speaker 1: at Bodine, you know that guys that look there, look 948 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 1: like they're going to be out the door. The ability 949 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:36,840 Speaker 1: to get value from those guys, getting the fifth and 950 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 1: six rounder, especially from Teller and then also a six 951 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,720 Speaker 1: from you know, Bodine, it's really and then with Dudon's 952 00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:46,400 Speaker 1: track record, to get value in those late rounds with 953 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 1: picks obviously Darryl Johnson this year, Milano in the past 954 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,360 Speaker 1: few years. I just think it really speaks to what 955 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,319 Speaker 1: an amazing front office we have in scouting department who 956 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 1: could pick up, you know, get value in those draft picks. Um. 957 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,320 Speaker 1: I think it bodes well for the few here, the 958 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills, and uh, I'm just really happy to be 959 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 1: behind this team and I think it's gonna be a 960 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:08,400 Speaker 1: good years. That's a great, great point. And you know, 961 00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 1: it kind of came up last night we were talking 962 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 1: on our radio broadcast. I can't remember if it was 963 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 1: sal Or Eric quoteho made the point about getting the 964 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 1: draft pick for Wyatt Teller is big. You know. Yeah, 965 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 1: they spent one a year before that was getting two 966 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:22,440 Speaker 1: picks for him, and now they get a pick for 967 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 1: Russell Bodine. Look, six or eight months ago, the Bills 968 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,240 Speaker 1: offensive line was was a waste land, right, You couldn't 969 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,840 Speaker 1: you couldn't get anybody to bud into these guys. It 970 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,120 Speaker 1: really was. They're getting cut out the other teams. Now 971 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,800 Speaker 1: those guys that started for him, now they're getting guys 972 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,839 Speaker 1: replacing the guys that they want to discard. Wyatt Teller, 973 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 1: Russell Bodine. They're getting draft picks. Capital they're not major 974 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:46,359 Speaker 1: draft picks. I know that, but as the caller points out, 975 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:49,360 Speaker 1: they mean something, right, they get players for those picks. 976 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,680 Speaker 1: The Bills. The Bills traded Wyatt Teller and Russ Bodine 977 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:57,040 Speaker 1: for a five and two sixes and they gave up 978 00:46:57,080 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 1: a seventh in two years. Yeah, so they gave up 979 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 1: one draft pick, a lower round draft, seventh round draft 980 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:07,359 Speaker 1: pick in twenty twenty one, but they got a five 981 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:09,719 Speaker 1: and two sixes for two guys that weren't going to 982 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:13,440 Speaker 1: be on the team anyway. So yeah, I think it 983 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 1: does add value. We've seen and you look at a 984 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:19,160 Speaker 1: guy like Bam Johnson. They got him this year. He's 985 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,799 Speaker 1: seventh round. He's gonna make the team as a seventh 986 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:24,719 Speaker 1: round lege, right. I think he didn't play at all 987 00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 1: last night. He was suited up, and there was a 988 00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 1: lot of speculation about which guys suited up, which guys. 989 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 1: A lot of guys suited up didn't see the field, 990 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 1: and they suited up because they wanted those guys to 991 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,480 Speaker 1: go through the pregame warmups. They wanted to have enough 992 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:36,719 Speaker 1: guys to go through warmups. That kind of thing or 993 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 1: stay ready in case of an emergency. But Bam Johnson 994 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,879 Speaker 1: didn't see the field last night. That guy's in. Yeah, yeah, 995 00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 1: one more. He's the seventh rounders that they just you know, 996 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: they got and they got two. They got three picks 997 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 1: that are higher than the one they got him with. 998 00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 1: I know we're backing up to the break here, but 999 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 1: this next caller is talking about as a question or 1000 00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,799 Speaker 1: a comment about exactly what we're talking about. Greg and Williamsville. 1001 00:47:56,960 --> 00:48:00,800 Speaker 1: Go ahead, Gregor on the air. Yeah, it was just curious, 1002 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:05,759 Speaker 1: is to h the coach trades offensive players because he 1003 00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 1: favors of the defense, even though we're in a league 1004 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:12,279 Speaker 1: were the rules favor offenses. It just doesn't seem to 1005 00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 1: make any sense. Why does any Why doesn't he doing 1006 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 1: more with the offense because the other teams don't want 1007 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:20,839 Speaker 1: those guys? Sure they do it, of course they want 1008 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,400 Speaker 1: of course they want guys on our defense. We have 1009 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,279 Speaker 1: great talent on defense. So why would you give that 1010 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:27,319 Speaker 1: great talent? Yeah, they're not getting they're given the they're 1011 00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:30,839 Speaker 1: given away the guys they don't want. Yeah, but it's 1012 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 1: because the coach wants defensive players. Any Oh, no about 1013 00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:37,439 Speaker 1: the offense. No, No, no, no, no, no, I don't. 1014 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: I don't agree with that, Greg. Their trade Listen, teams 1015 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,880 Speaker 1: are inquiring about players on the Bill's roster, and the 1016 00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 1: Bills say yes or no. And the guy who makes 1017 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:48,800 Speaker 1: the trades isn't the coach is the GM. Certainly the 1018 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,239 Speaker 1: coach has a voice. But you know that this is 1019 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:55,520 Speaker 1: this is a whole team. It's not just because I 1020 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,840 Speaker 1: think your way off base. Way of Look, Sean McDermott 1021 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:03,480 Speaker 1: is not not allowing them to trade defenders because he's 1022 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,359 Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator, former defensive coordinator. He's trying to get 1023 00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills good. If somebody calls up and wants 1024 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 1: to make a trade for a player on defense, the 1025 00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:13,839 Speaker 1: Bills are about to cut. I have no doubt they 1026 00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 1: will trade that player if they can. Right. Oh absolutely. 1027 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,800 Speaker 1: I mean they're getting asset. Look, as I said, offensive 1028 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:22,279 Speaker 1: line was a waste land on this roster, on this 1029 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 1: team six eight months ago. Now they're getting assets for 1030 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:28,319 Speaker 1: offensive lineman that they don't want. It's indicative of where 1031 00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:30,800 Speaker 1: they think their offensive line is, where how they've improve. 1032 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:32,600 Speaker 1: I think he got the wrong, Greg, I think he 1033 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,680 Speaker 1: got the wrong mind frame about how these trades come about. 1034 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:41,400 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott isn't against trading anybody on the roster that 1035 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 1: another team inquires about. Whether there's an offensive guy or 1036 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,279 Speaker 1: a defensive guy. It all depends on age. Does he 1037 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:48,840 Speaker 1: really need the guy and be what are they offering? 1038 00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:50,840 Speaker 1: It has nothing to do with offense or defense. I 1039 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,320 Speaker 1: think you're kind of overthinking that. Take a break. We 1040 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 1: got a lot coming up, including Andrew Catalan, Steve's broadcast 1041 00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:59,440 Speaker 1: partner on the television side last night. Maddie Glad's going 1042 00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:01,919 Speaker 1: to join us next hour as well. The Bills making 1043 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:03,919 Speaker 1: a little bit of news today. Perhaps we'll talk about 1044 00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:06,080 Speaker 1: that and continue to take your phone calls. Come on back. 1045 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,080 Speaker 1: One Bill's Live, presented by Kalidah Health from One Bill's Drive. 1046 00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:23,040 Speaker 1: This is Buffalo Bills Radio, Bufalo Bill's Radio Network Stories 1047 00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:27,160 Speaker 1: updates from One Bill's Drive. A couple of reports out 1048 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:29,440 Speaker 1: there about trades in the NFL, one of them involving 1049 00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports the Bills 1050 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:35,120 Speaker 1: are going to trade center Russell Bodine to the New 1051 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:39,240 Speaker 1: England Patriots, and it's the third offensive lineman the Patriots 1052 00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:42,480 Speaker 1: have traded for this week. Reportedly, it's a sixth round 1053 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:45,239 Speaker 1: pick in twenty twenty. No confirmation from either side yet, 1054 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:47,319 Speaker 1: but the report is the Bills are ready to ship 1055 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:49,759 Speaker 1: off Russell Bodine, who was gonna, you would think, have 1056 00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:52,319 Speaker 1: a hard time making the Buffalo roster. Chip him off 1057 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,480 Speaker 1: to the New England Patriots for a sixth round pick 1058 00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:58,200 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. Patriots have also traded cornerback Duke Dawson 1059 00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 1: to the Denver Broncos. They'll get the Broncos get Dawson 1060 00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:03,440 Speaker 1: in New England seventh round pick in twenty twenty, and 1061 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:06,000 Speaker 1: return the Patriots get a draft pick next year. So 1062 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,640 Speaker 1: New England very busy today trying to put together they 1063 00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:11,920 Speaker 1: are roster. The Bills coming off their fourth preseason victory 1064 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 1: last night, first time they've gone unbeaten four and oh 1065 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:16,919 Speaker 1: in preseason. They came from behind with twenty one points 1066 00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 1: in the final seven and a half minutes of the 1067 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:22,239 Speaker 1: fourth quarter to beat the Minnesota Vikings twenty seven to 1068 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:25,880 Speaker 1: twenty three, the final score last night at New Airfield. 1069 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,160 Speaker 1: Now the Bills get set for the season opener, which 1070 00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:30,920 Speaker 1: is nine days away.

Nothing official roster cut deadline is four pm tomorrow. 1076 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 1: That's when the names have to be out there, but 1077 00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:53,359 Speaker 1: as anticipated, there will be names that are leaked over 1078 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 1: the next twenty four to twenty six hours before those 1079 00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 1: become official. Miami Dolphins coach Brian Flores his name, Ryan 1080 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:02,400 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick is starting quarterback. Miami opens this season against the 1081 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:05,960 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens on September eight. Fitz led the Dolphins quarterback 1082 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 1: competition all offseason over second year quarterback johns Rosen. Rosen 1083 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 1: had a decent preseason, though it gave Flores a little 1084 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 1: something to think about, but Flores apparently valued Fitzpatrick's experience, 1085 00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:19,960 Speaker 1: his ability to run a new offense, and is the 1086 00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:21,840 Speaker 1: way you can rally a young team. There you go. 1087 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,680 Speaker 1: The update from One Bill's Drive, John Murphy and Steve 1088 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 1: Tasker in our studio One Bills five presented by Kalata 1089 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 1: Health Live from the Seneca Studio.

Joining us right now on 1094 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:42,920 Speaker 1: the line is the play by play man on the 1095 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:45,759 Speaker 1: Bills preseason TV. Finished off his third game last night 1096 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 1: with Steve and Ted Brown. Now he moves into his 1097 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,440 Speaker 1: role as a play by play man on the NFL 1098 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:53,280 Speaker 1: on CBS. He's done that for ten years. Andrew Catalan 1099 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 1: on the line with us. Andrew, good job last night. 1100 00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 1: I watched the first half until one in the morning 1101 00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,839 Speaker 1: last night. You were great. Wow. Yeah, no late night, 1102 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,439 Speaker 1: late night, A couple of beers, a couple of postgame beers, 1103 00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:03,880 Speaker 1: a little wind down, you know, you know, how did 1104 00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 1: you Steve's winding down? Honestly, Murph didn't get caught in 1105 00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 1: the traffic that we did last night. Yeah. That was 1106 00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:12,239 Speaker 1: kind of strange, wasn't it. It was? Yeah? It was. Um, 1107 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:14,560 Speaker 1: we're trying not to make too much of that victory 1108 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:16,759 Speaker 1: last night. And let me start you out with what Look, 1109 00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:20,760 Speaker 1: and I know, talent wins, you gotta have players, But Andrew, 1110 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 1: you've watched this team pretty closely now for most of 1111 00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:26,120 Speaker 1: this preseason. Is there anything to be said about the 1112 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:29,480 Speaker 1: fact that the Bills seemed there seemed to be something 1113 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 1: going on here with this group? Would you agree? Or 1114 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:34,800 Speaker 1: am I just I agree? I think we saw it 1115 00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:39,439 Speaker 1: again last night with the way the sideline erupted after 1116 00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 1: certain players made plays. You know, the end of the game, 1117 00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 1: you would have thought they just went to the AFC 1118 00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:49,400 Speaker 1: Championship game. But you know, I say that as a compliment. 1119 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:51,919 Speaker 1: I mean it just it showed me that they're really 1120 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:56,600 Speaker 1: As Sam McDermott told us on Wednesday, no one's selfish 1121 00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:58,799 Speaker 1: on this team. They're all helping each other, they're all 1122 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,760 Speaker 1: rooting for each other. And the four no record doesn't 1123 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:05,240 Speaker 1: mean as much to me as just seeing how close 1124 00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:07,840 Speaker 1: they appear to be as a unit. And that tells 1125 00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 1: me something more than the four wins. What about let's 1126 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 1: talk about both sides of the football. You know, did 1127 00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:15,880 Speaker 1: Josh Allen do you think take a step forward from 1128 00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:19,640 Speaker 1: last year? You've seen him now, you know as much 1129 00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 1: as anybody, and you've also got more help on his 1130 00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 1: side of the football. Have they done enough to make 1131 00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 1: the offense? Compliment? Was what was a pretty good defense 1132 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:31,520 Speaker 1: last year. I definitely think they have all the pieces now. 1133 00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:34,360 Speaker 1: I think that obviously the gold Is summer was to 1134 00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:36,960 Speaker 1: get everyone on the same page in terms of Allen 1135 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 1: his timing with the receivers. And obviously there were some 1136 00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:43,879 Speaker 1: hiccups there with Mitch Morris being out on the offensive line, 1137 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 1: the way they had to shuffle around. A couple of 1138 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,880 Speaker 1: the receivers were nicked up here and there. Obviously Beasley 1139 00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:51,160 Speaker 1: missed a lot of the spring. So I think all 1140 00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:54,080 Speaker 1: the pieces are there. I just I think that, you know, 1141 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 1: are they going to hit the ground running in Week one? 1142 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:59,279 Speaker 1: Obviously that's the hope, but will it take a little 1143 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,600 Speaker 1: bit now at Morris's back, now that you know the 1144 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,239 Speaker 1: fourth preseason game is out of the way. So, yes, 1145 00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:08,880 Speaker 1: the pieces are there. It's a much improved team. Certainly 1146 00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:11,160 Speaker 1: an offensive line to me, that was a huge issue 1147 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:14,760 Speaker 1: last year. They've improved it. You see the depth they've developed. 1148 00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:18,279 Speaker 1: Another trade today with Boat onto the Patriots, so you know, 1149 00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:21,040 Speaker 1: they're getting lots of phone calls on these offensive linemen, 1150 00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 1: and that's a testament to Brandon Bean and his staff 1151 00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:26,000 Speaker 1: and what they have put together here in this offseason. 1152 00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 1: We're with Andrew Catalan NFL on CBS, played by play. 1153 00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 1: I think you told me this, Andrew, But week one, 1154 00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:35,360 Speaker 1: you don't. You have the Bills Jets game in Week one? No, 1155 00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 1: I have Baltimore at Miami. That's a pretty good one too. 1156 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:39,480 Speaker 1: I think the Bills Jets games is going to be 1157 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:42,520 Speaker 1: really good, though, don't you? I do. I can't wait. 1158 00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:46,040 Speaker 1: I think that. I think Andre Roberts is probably pretty 1159 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,200 Speaker 1: excited to play the Jets as well. I mean, maybe 1160 00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 1: if the Bills get the opening kick, look out for Roberts. 1161 00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:54,239 Speaker 1: But uh no, Look, I've said it all along. I 1162 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:56,360 Speaker 1: think the Jets are very improved as well. And I 1163 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 1: think that's a great game week one, right out of 1164 00:55:58,160 --> 00:55:59,800 Speaker 1: the gate. And I think the Bills are going to 1165 00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:03,080 Speaker 1: be ready. I really like the way that Sean McDermott 1166 00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:06,000 Speaker 1: has them together. I mean, thinking about it last night, well, 1167 00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 1: we were interviewing Brandon Bean on TV. I mean, how 1168 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,840 Speaker 1: about Brandon Bean's draft. You got Chakawan Johnson in the 1169 00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:15,560 Speaker 1: sixth round, Sweeney and Darryl Johnson in the seventh round. 1170 00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:17,600 Speaker 1: I mean, these are three guys that you know, I 1171 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 1: think they're going to make the team, or at least 1172 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,560 Speaker 1: two of the three should make the team. So I 1173 00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:25,520 Speaker 1: really think that between free agency and the draft, this 1174 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 1: is a Buffalo team that is is going to really 1175 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:31,200 Speaker 1: come out storm in Week one. After as you leave 1176 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:33,799 Speaker 1: the Bills from your preseason telecast, you're in a good 1177 00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:37,279 Speaker 1: position to maybe handle this question. Andrew Steve's old coach, 1178 00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:40,600 Speaker 1: Martin Leevie used to say the objectives of preseason were one, 1179 00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:44,040 Speaker 1: pick your team and two sharpen execution. Did you see 1180 00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:46,839 Speaker 1: the Bills sharpen their execution at all? Obviously last night 1181 00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 1: doesn't really count, but did you see them sharpen their 1182 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:51,440 Speaker 1: execution to the extent they need to in order to 1183 00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:53,799 Speaker 1: play well and be competitive right out of the gate 1184 00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 1: this year? Yeah, Murphy, I thought it was interesting how 1185 00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,840 Speaker 1: much in our meetings or saw McDermott he spoke about 1186 00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:04,439 Speaker 1: the staff and the communication, whether it was headsets back 1187 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:07,080 Speaker 1: in the spring at practice, and just the way they 1188 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:09,759 Speaker 1: have attacked the two minute offense. I really thought that 1189 00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:14,800 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott was really motivated to take his coaching to 1190 00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,440 Speaker 1: the next level, and that's something that's obviously great to 1191 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 1: see that he wants to get better as well. And yeah, 1192 00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:23,320 Speaker 1: in terms of execution, I think they have a very 1193 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 1: good plan in place. It seems like the way they 1194 00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 1: use timeouts, the way they want to try to attack 1195 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 1: the two minute offense. I really like the way that 1196 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:34,160 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott handled himself both at practice and in these 1197 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:36,440 Speaker 1: games this summer, and I think that says a lot 1198 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:38,520 Speaker 1: about the way they should be able to execute come 1199 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:42,240 Speaker 1: week one. We're asking our listeners Andrew about something, maybe 1200 00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:45,320 Speaker 1: somebody who is surprisingly going to be on the team 1201 00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:48,640 Speaker 1: after this fifty three cutdown, or perhaps it's going to 1202 00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:51,440 Speaker 1: be a significant contributor during the season. Do you have 1203 00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 1: anybody that jumps out at you as a guy who 1204 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:58,880 Speaker 1: may be a surprise guy on the roster on September eight, Well, 1205 00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 1: I just said his name. I mean Daryl Johnson. Is 1206 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:05,720 Speaker 1: you know Mike Love going on r and Johnson did 1207 00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 1: play last night. He get the sense that maybe that 1208 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 1: means he's okay. Again, we don't know that, but but 1209 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 1: I would I would think that after the way he 1210 00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:16,800 Speaker 1: played and the way that the coaches have discussed him 1211 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 1: in the way that he's practiced and prepared. And you know, 1212 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 1: I think Brandon Bean even said it on Our Bills 1213 00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 1: Television network last night that you know, it's hard to 1214 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 1: see guys stewarts and T shirts in the spring, especially 1215 00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 1: Guylen Johnson, who who is you know, undersized if you will. 1216 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:36,160 Speaker 1: So when he put the pads on those, as Brandon 1217 00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:38,600 Speaker 1: told us, it was like a different player. He really 1218 00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:41,840 Speaker 1: had to watch him and just see that he's you know, 1219 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:44,840 Speaker 1: he plays bigger, he plays faster, He's got a great 1220 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:47,480 Speaker 1: sense for being around the football. And no, I think 1221 00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:49,800 Speaker 1: going into the summer, if you said, you know, as 1222 00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:51,920 Speaker 1: Darryl Johnson is going to make the team, I think 1223 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:54,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people might have said, man, maybe fifty fifty. 1224 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 1: But after the way he played, I mean I'd be 1225 00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:00,440 Speaker 1: surprised if he wasn't on the roster on September. As overall, 1226 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:05,200 Speaker 1: andrew pretty impressive defense on displayed by the Bills in 1227 00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:08,480 Speaker 1: the preseason, right, would you agree? Yeah? And the communication 1228 00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:11,120 Speaker 1: was huge too. It just seems like another year in 1229 00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:14,400 Speaker 1: the system. Bringing back so many starters and even reserves 1230 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:17,560 Speaker 1: from last year. It's a huge difference. They're all on 1231 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:20,480 Speaker 1: the same page. It just seems like they were playing 1232 00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:24,320 Speaker 1: faster when the first team was out there, and I 1233 00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 1: think that's the huge cluss. I mean, so much attention 1234 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,120 Speaker 1: has been put on the offense and the new pieces 1235 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:31,880 Speaker 1: and how are they going to gel together? But I 1236 00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:35,840 Speaker 1: think that's because the defense has been such a constant 1237 00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:38,640 Speaker 1: and they've been consistent and there's not a lot of 1238 00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:41,600 Speaker 1: turnover on outside of the ball. So now I really 1239 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 1: feel that maybe the defense isn't getting as many headlines 1240 00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:47,640 Speaker 1: because it's potentially not a sex sys and some of 1241 00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:50,720 Speaker 1: the offensive moves, but that defense should be out thing 1242 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:52,720 Speaker 1: towards the top of the league once again this year. 1243 00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:54,880 Speaker 1: What do you make of the fact that the Bills 1244 00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:57,840 Speaker 1: are willing to trade an offensive lineman like Russ Bodine 1245 00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:01,920 Speaker 1: to a division rival, particularly the division rival that has 1246 01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 1: won the division so often in the New England Patriots. 1247 01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:07,680 Speaker 1: Do you make anything of that? That's unusual? Right? It 1248 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:11,440 Speaker 1: is unusual. Yeah, you don't see that very often. At 1249 01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 1: the same time, if someone's going to offer you a 1250 01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 1: six round pick for a guy that probably wasn't going 1251 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:18,880 Speaker 1: to make your team who've been why not? I mean, 1252 01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:20,920 Speaker 1: why not get something for him, even if it is 1253 01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:25,280 Speaker 1: from the Patriots. So, Steve, we had a lengthy meeting 1254 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,880 Speaker 1: at your kitchen table yesterday morning and we discussed the 1255 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:31,840 Speaker 1: need really for a reserve of tackles more than reserve 1256 01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:35,720 Speaker 1: of guards on the offensive line, so I'm not shocked 1257 01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 1: that that bodon is not here anymore. I think that 1258 01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:41,200 Speaker 1: they really need to find who's going to be that 1259 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:44,560 Speaker 1: backup tackle, that swing tackle that can help out if 1260 01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:47,560 Speaker 1: there's an injury. So I'd say, why not if you 1261 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:51,160 Speaker 1: can get something for him, why not send them away 1262 01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:54,720 Speaker 1: and take the pick and your Catalan from the NFL 1263 01:00:54,800 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 1: on CBS getting set for his tenth season play by 1264 01:00:57,120 --> 01:00:58,840 Speaker 1: play with them. He just finished up another year as 1265 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:01,880 Speaker 1: the Bills prec in TV play by play man. Steve 1266 01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:03,280 Speaker 1: and I were talking to Andrew when we went to 1267 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 1: camp five weeks ago. We were almost not exclusively, but 1268 01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 1: we were very well much focused on offensive line. Five 1269 01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:13,320 Speaker 1: weeks later, preseason games over, we still don't know who's 1270 01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:15,040 Speaker 1: going to start out the offensive line, but I don't 1271 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:16,720 Speaker 1: worry about it as much as I did a couple 1272 01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 1: of weeks ago. I think the Bills have talked about 1273 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:22,280 Speaker 1: developing the depth and having what a quarter of seven 1274 01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:24,120 Speaker 1: or eight that they can play up front start up 1275 01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:25,800 Speaker 1: front that they feel pretty good about. Are you buying 1276 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:28,120 Speaker 1: that when they say that, Yeah, No, I think that's 1277 01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:31,000 Speaker 1: a great point and I'll take it two ways. Yes, 1278 01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:34,600 Speaker 1: the offensive line doesn't concern me. I feel like they've 1279 01:01:34,680 --> 01:01:37,920 Speaker 1: got the pieces. It's just figuring out now that everyone 1280 01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:41,680 Speaker 1: appears to be healthy, you know, more squitter and concussion protocol, 1281 01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 1: and then it's in sicky he's ready to go. Then 1282 01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:46,760 Speaker 1: then they can kind of figure out the pieces. But 1283 01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:48,600 Speaker 1: dark goes back. Also, if you want to take the 1284 01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:51,280 Speaker 1: flip side of asking about you know, are they ready 1285 01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:54,439 Speaker 1: to go week one? And you know, Sean McDermott said 1286 01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:58,280 Speaker 1: it was important to find that the five best offensive 1287 01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:01,400 Speaker 1: lineman first and then devel up the continuity and the 1288 01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:04,800 Speaker 1: chemistry of those five together. So that would be my 1289 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:09,720 Speaker 1: one question, with still not really knowing who the first 1290 01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:13,240 Speaker 1: five are and with some of the injuries obviously namely Morse, 1291 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:16,840 Speaker 1: are they gonna gell week one week two or is 1292 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:19,200 Speaker 1: that going to take a little bit of time. I 1293 01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:22,080 Speaker 1: think that you know, it's not a huge sin, but 1294 01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:24,280 Speaker 1: it is a factor. I mean, you want these guys 1295 01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:29,200 Speaker 1: feeling comfortable together and feeling that continuity. So that's one 1296 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:31,920 Speaker 1: of my questions. I agree, I'm not worried about the line, 1297 01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:35,360 Speaker 1: but when will they gel together? Will it be instantly 1298 01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:37,120 Speaker 1: or will it take a couple of weeks because of 1299 01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:38,880 Speaker 1: all the injuries. One of the things I wanted to 1300 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:41,520 Speaker 1: ask you about in your observation. We watched these guys 1301 01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 1: a lot, and you see him as well. I mean, 1302 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:46,280 Speaker 1: what do you think about having two running backs and 1303 01:02:46,360 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 1: one and two that are both thirty one plus years 1304 01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:52,120 Speaker 1: of age? Frank Gore thirty five years of age going 1305 01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:55,640 Speaker 1: into his fifteenth year or whatever it is for him. 1306 01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:59,000 Speaker 1: I mean, does that give you pause at all? With 1307 01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:01,880 Speaker 1: LaShaun McCoy Frank Gore still carrying the load at their age, 1308 01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:06,000 Speaker 1: It doesn't. After the way I saw a Singletary player 1309 01:03:06,040 --> 01:03:09,680 Speaker 1: this summer, I may have felt differently if Singletary wasn't 1310 01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:13,439 Speaker 1: ready to emerge, but I just I think he really 1311 01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:17,160 Speaker 1: showed a lot. And we specifically, as Sean McDermott, you 1312 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 1: know this summer about pass protection because for a rookie 1313 01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:23,120 Speaker 1: running back, that tends to be something that comes last. 1314 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,280 Speaker 1: But McDermott was pleased with him. I think he showed 1315 01:03:26,320 --> 01:03:29,120 Speaker 1: us something touching the football out of the backfield, and 1316 01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:31,560 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna play a lot. So if you 1317 01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:34,080 Speaker 1: had to rely on Gore and McCoy to carry the 1318 01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:37,000 Speaker 1: load the majority of the load for sixteen weeks. That 1319 01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:39,680 Speaker 1: would give me some pause. But I kind of feel 1320 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:41,640 Speaker 1: that that Singletary is going to get in there a 1321 01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:44,600 Speaker 1: lot and they're gonna use him, and that, in theory, 1322 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:47,720 Speaker 1: should keep Gore and McCoy with some maybe fresher legs 1323 01:03:47,760 --> 01:03:50,880 Speaker 1: deeper in the season. So Steve, I think maybe four 1324 01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:52,880 Speaker 1: weeks ago I would have felt that way, but I 1325 01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:56,400 Speaker 1: don't feel that way anymore after watching Singletary plays. And 1326 01:03:56,640 --> 01:03:58,400 Speaker 1: before we get you talking for a minute or two 1327 01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:00,480 Speaker 1: about the rest of the league and some of the issues. 1328 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:03,080 Speaker 1: One final thought, I have one final question I have 1329 01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:05,360 Speaker 1: for you about the Bills. How many wins this year 1330 01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:07,320 Speaker 1: for this group? You've seen him as closely as anybody 1331 01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,720 Speaker 1: has over the last five weeks. I'm gonna go with nine, Murph, 1332 01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:13,720 Speaker 1: and I think that's that's going to be very close 1333 01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:16,240 Speaker 1: to getting in the playoffs. I think the AFC is stacked. 1334 01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,840 Speaker 1: I think I was hiring the Colts and knock them 1335 01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:22,080 Speaker 1: down a peg now because of Andrew Luck. But I 1336 01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:24,040 Speaker 1: think you look around the conference and there's a lot 1337 01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:27,160 Speaker 1: of really good teams. I think nine wins could get 1338 01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:29,680 Speaker 1: Buffalo in. I think they're gonna have a very good season. 1339 01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:32,480 Speaker 1: And if it's enough, it's a team I would not 1340 01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:34,960 Speaker 1: want to face in the playoffs. I really feel that 1341 01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:39,360 Speaker 1: they have a lot of pieces. They're tenacious defensively, they 1342 01:04:39,440 --> 01:04:41,920 Speaker 1: have some weapons on offense, and I think they're just 1343 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:46,240 Speaker 1: so well coached. They're they're disciplined. I think it's a team. 1344 01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:48,600 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna give Bills fans a real fun 1345 01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:52,520 Speaker 1: ride this year. Andrew camelon with us from the NFL 1346 01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:55,560 Speaker 1: on CBS a couple of NFL issues, the Dolphins going 1347 01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:58,080 Speaker 1: with Ryan Fitzpatrick. Some people thought it didn't make any 1348 01:04:58,160 --> 01:05:00,720 Speaker 1: sense to go with the veteran over a you know, 1349 01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:02,920 Speaker 1: a guy who was a first round pick a year ago. 1350 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:04,440 Speaker 1: What do you make of that decision? What does it 1351 01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:07,040 Speaker 1: say about Josh Rosen and what does it say about 1352 01:05:07,080 --> 01:05:10,760 Speaker 1: where the Dolphins think they are? Andrew, That's funny because 1353 01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:13,120 Speaker 1: you know, being with the Bills all summer, I haven't 1354 01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:15,280 Speaker 1: really thought too much about my Week one game, But 1355 01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:18,520 Speaker 1: this morning on the plane ride home, I'm like, Okay, Baltimore, Miami, 1356 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:21,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, what's going on down here in Miami? It 1357 01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:25,240 Speaker 1: just seems like with the clowney talk and now council's 1358 01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:28,160 Speaker 1: upset because he's been floated in the trade talk, and 1359 01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:32,400 Speaker 1: you know Fitzpatrick and Rosen, and now there's a hurricane 1360 01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:35,280 Speaker 1: coming to Florida. It just seems like there's like a 1361 01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:37,600 Speaker 1: lot going on that I have to dive into with 1362 01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:41,360 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. But I would just say that, you know, 1363 01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:45,120 Speaker 1: the locker room probably good created more than anything who 1364 01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 1: that starting quarterback was going to be. You know, I 1365 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:50,840 Speaker 1: think that a rookie head coach and Brian Flora has 1366 01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:52,520 Speaker 1: kind of had to lean on some of the guys 1367 01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:54,920 Speaker 1: in that locker room, and if any of them had 1368 01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:56,960 Speaker 1: any pause on Rosen, I think they had to go 1369 01:05:57,040 --> 01:05:59,840 Speaker 1: with Fitzpatrick. That's not to say that Rosen's not gonna play. 1370 01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:02,960 Speaker 1: Maybe a month or two into the season, I think 1371 01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,880 Speaker 1: they do have to give him a shot if he 1372 01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:08,680 Speaker 1: could be the guy, But at least out of the day, 1373 01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:10,680 Speaker 1: it seems I could just want to veteran the kind 1374 01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:12,960 Speaker 1: of you know, try to lead him into calm Water, 1375 01:06:13,160 --> 01:06:16,000 Speaker 1: and that guy's gonna be Ryan Fitzpatrick. I kind of 1376 01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:18,000 Speaker 1: agree with you. I told Murph this yesterday. I said, 1377 01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:20,439 Speaker 1: if if there's a consensus in the locker room about 1378 01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:23,280 Speaker 1: which guy gives them the better chance, that's the absolute 1379 01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 1: must choice for the head coach. I don't think there's 1380 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:29,040 Speaker 1: any question. Ryan Fitzpatrick is probably that guy at this point. 1381 01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:32,800 Speaker 1: But we've seen this before is two with fits. It 1382 01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:35,439 Speaker 1: might change in week three or four. He might start 1383 01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:37,760 Speaker 1: to drop off, and then you've got to make a change, 1384 01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:39,320 Speaker 1: and then Josh real it'll be time for him. I 1385 01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:42,760 Speaker 1: don't think there's any way, even if Ryan Fitzpatrick does 1386 01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:45,040 Speaker 1: start off strongly for the Dolphins, that he's going to 1387 01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:46,880 Speaker 1: be able to finish sixteen games. We've seen this too 1388 01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:50,120 Speaker 1: many times. He's just not gonna put that many good 1389 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:52,960 Speaker 1: games together. It'll be interesting to see what happens on 1390 01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:54,680 Speaker 1: opening Day. I want to ask you about the other team, 1391 01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:58,080 Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens. They seem to be trying to do 1392 01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:00,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of a paradigm shift in the way 1393 01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:03,360 Speaker 1: their philosophy on offense is gonna work. What do you 1394 01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:06,640 Speaker 1: sense coming out of Baltimore? Yeah, I mean, I thought 1395 01:07:06,640 --> 01:07:09,400 Speaker 1: it was interesting last week that Lamar Jobson said he 1396 01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:12,400 Speaker 1: expects to throw the football thirty times a game. Um, 1397 01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:15,600 Speaker 1: that's a lot. Uh, And that's a lot to put 1398 01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:17,760 Speaker 1: on his play. The Arthur Grims, he's not gonna run 1399 01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:20,520 Speaker 1: as much as last year. So you know, I don't 1400 01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 1: really know what to expect so far with this this 1401 01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:24,680 Speaker 1: Ravens offense out of the game in the Week one, 1402 01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:27,160 Speaker 1: I'm sure that they did. You know, we're pretty vanilla 1403 01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:30,280 Speaker 1: in the in the preseason. They don't want to give 1404 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:33,320 Speaker 1: away too much about how, um you know they're gonna 1405 01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:36,120 Speaker 1: use Lamar Jobson. I definitely think it's gonna be a 1406 01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:39,160 Speaker 1: different style. It's not gonna be the typical offense that 1407 01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:41,800 Speaker 1: you see, you know, from the majority of the league. 1408 01:07:42,640 --> 01:07:45,920 Speaker 1: But they do seem to indicate if Lamar Jackson is 1409 01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:48,760 Speaker 1: is uh is being candid, that he's gonna throw it 1410 01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:50,800 Speaker 1: a lot more than last year. And you know, they 1411 01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:52,680 Speaker 1: do have some good pieces there. They lost a lot 1412 01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:55,760 Speaker 1: off their defense. I think that whole division is kind 1413 01:07:55,840 --> 01:07:59,240 Speaker 1: of there's a lot of question marks, even with Cleveland 1414 01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:03,080 Speaker 1: and how you know the head coach in his first 1415 01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:05,800 Speaker 1: year is going to kind of hold everyone together. That's 1416 01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:08,480 Speaker 1: a really fascinated division to me to see how it 1417 01:08:08,560 --> 01:08:11,120 Speaker 1: plays out. And in that game, just one more thing 1418 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:13,680 Speaker 1: for Andrew. You got Baltimore at Miami, your first game 1419 01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:16,080 Speaker 1: for CBS a week from Sunday, and what have you 1420 01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:18,280 Speaker 1: heard about the storm are. Is there any talk about 1421 01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:21,280 Speaker 1: moving that game or flipping something somewhere else or much 1422 01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:23,800 Speaker 1: too early for that. What do you think? Yeah, No, 1423 01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:27,240 Speaker 1: I don't anything yet. Having gone through this a few 1424 01:08:27,320 --> 01:08:31,760 Speaker 1: times now, obviously, they usually have a backup plan in place, 1425 01:08:31,840 --> 01:08:35,880 Speaker 1: whether it's a neutral site or moving the game. There's 1426 01:08:35,880 --> 01:08:38,320 Speaker 1: definitely gonna be some options. Hopefully it doesn't come to 1427 01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:41,400 Speaker 1: that following the storm, just just because I'm kind of 1428 01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:47,680 Speaker 1: a weather deek, and yeah, it just doesn't seem like, um, 1429 01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:50,800 Speaker 1: there's really much direction as to where the landfall is. 1430 01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:52,720 Speaker 1: It could be so many different areas, so I think 1431 01:08:52,720 --> 01:08:55,479 Speaker 1: it's still preliminary. I hope everyone's okay. I hope that 1432 01:08:55,560 --> 01:08:57,760 Speaker 1: they're you know, we're ready to go next Sunday down there. 1433 01:08:57,880 --> 01:09:01,599 Speaker 1: But I having gone through these a few times, even 1434 01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 1: when we were doing games, and we remember you well, 1435 01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:07,040 Speaker 1: I was a smooth storm in Buffalo's statement Atlanta for 1436 01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:11,479 Speaker 1: like ten days. But yeah, there's always some other contingency plan. 1437 01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:14,000 Speaker 1: But hopefully it doesn't come to that. Yeah, you're right, 1438 01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:16,479 Speaker 1: they'll be ready and they're starting to they'll get their 1439 01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:18,880 Speaker 1: antenna up and trying to get a feel for but 1440 01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:24,360 Speaker 1: you'll probably start to hear possibilities probably Wednesday or Thursday 1441 01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:26,040 Speaker 1: about if there if there are going to be any 1442 01:09:26,080 --> 01:09:28,400 Speaker 1: major changes to the venue or the time of the game, 1443 01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:34,000 Speaker 1: and um, but they won't do that until for seriousness, 1444 01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:36,720 Speaker 1: until Wednesday Thursday, they'll start to make those decisions. So 1445 01:09:37,320 --> 01:09:40,560 Speaker 1: sit tight in New Jersey. You'll be all right. You 1446 01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:44,599 Speaker 1: can watch Weather Channel all week. Yeah. Wait, good day 1447 01:09:44,680 --> 01:09:48,280 Speaker 1: for me. Good weekend, and your great job on the 1448 01:09:48,320 --> 01:09:50,760 Speaker 1: Bills broadcast. As I said, I watched first half last night. 1449 01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:52,679 Speaker 1: I might have two and a half more beers tonight 1450 01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 1: and watch the second half. But really, ye, thank you 1451 01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:58,360 Speaker 1: so much.

All right, Andrew, Thanks. Andrew 1454 01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:07,040 Speaker 1: Candall called the Bills preseason games on TV Played by Play, 1455 01:10:07,040 --> 01:10:08,880 Speaker 1: and I was getting set for his tenth year with 1456 01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:12,000 Speaker 1: the NFL on CBS. He feels like he's one of us, 1457 01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:13,639 Speaker 1: doesn't he kind of? You work with him, Oh absolutely, 1458 01:10:13,640 --> 01:10:15,400 Speaker 1: and you work with him for years. Yeah. I did 1459 01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:17,320 Speaker 1: his first ever game when he was just they were 1460 01:10:17,360 --> 01:10:19,559 Speaker 1: just giving him a look. Somebody needed a weekend off, 1461 01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:21,560 Speaker 1: and they said, all right, would you would? And I 1462 01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:23,840 Speaker 1: say yeah, I'll do it, and he was great. Yeah, 1463 01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:25,840 Speaker 1: and he's really good and he you know, he was 1464 01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:29,759 Speaker 1: a big moment for him. He handled it really well, smooth, 1465 01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:33,240 Speaker 1: sounded comfortable even though he was you know, he's jumping 1466 01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:35,040 Speaker 1: around inside.

Maddie, what jenk 1507 01:12:54,040 --> 01:12:55,880 Speaker 1: of the game last night? How'd you like it? That 1508 01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:59,000 Speaker 1: fourth quarter was exciting? In the third quarter there I 1509 01:12:59,120 --> 01:13:02,320 Speaker 1: was like, okay, I'm ready for the regular season to start. 1510 01:13:02,360 --> 01:13:04,960 Speaker 1: And then the fourth quarter, I'm like, okay, give you 1511 01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:06,760 Speaker 1: some more of this. This is great. You watch the 1512 01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:09,120 Speaker 1: game from I was watching the press box, like the 1513 01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:12,120 Speaker 1: one on the on the tunnel end, or the one 1514 01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:14,200 Speaker 1: where we do the broadcast, the one on the tunnel end, 1515 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:16,040 Speaker 1: to call it the working press box. But you probably 1516 01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:19,240 Speaker 1: noticed that. Yeah, I mean I was I was working 1517 01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:22,920 Speaker 1: slash enjoying. How can you not enjoy that fourth quarter? 1518 01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:27,120 Speaker 1: Scoring the final drive and then an interception to end 1519 01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:30,240 Speaker 1: the game? Nice? Yeah, yeah, it was great. It was 1520 01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:33,519 Speaker 1: Did you give up hope? Like some other people did. 1521 01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:36,320 Speaker 1: When they were down eighteen points midway through the fourth, 1522 01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:39,120 Speaker 1: I was hoping they would make it come back. I 1523 01:13:39,200 --> 01:13:42,040 Speaker 1: didn't look. I just gestured I had faith because I was. 1524 01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:45,160 Speaker 1: I was feeling the going four and in preseason I 1525 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:48,200 Speaker 1: lost my faith. I here to admit. It went down 1526 01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:50,720 Speaker 1: twenty three to six with seven or eight minutes left, 1527 01:13:50,760 --> 01:13:52,439 Speaker 1: I thought, okay, let's go, let's move on. Right in 1528 01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:56,040 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter of the preseason, I was I'd go. Mentally, 1529 01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:57,960 Speaker 1: I was like, Wow, this one's done. And then back 1530 01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:00,800 Speaker 1: this up. Yeah, the pump return chained everything and then 1531 01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:02,680 Speaker 1: it was like, okay, we probably could win this. But 1532 01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:06,280 Speaker 1: shout out to Marcus Murphy and Miszoo grad true we 1533 01:14:06,360 --> 01:14:08,600 Speaker 1: were in school at the same time together. Yeah. So 1534 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:12,400 Speaker 1: after the game I was talking to Marcus Murphy in 1535 01:14:12,400 --> 01:14:14,439 Speaker 1: the locker room and he said, did that remind you 1536 01:14:14,640 --> 01:14:17,920 Speaker 1: of Miszoo Marcus? And I said, heck, yes, Marcus, do 1537 01:14:17,960 --> 01:14:20,240 Speaker 1: you do that on Missoo? He was a great returner 1538 01:14:20,720 --> 01:14:22,920 Speaker 1: for punts and kickoffs. He's one of my favorite players 1539 01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:24,360 Speaker 1: out on the roster. He has been for a couple 1540 01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:27,880 Speaker 1: of years. Steve's got an informal little roster on the 1541 01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:30,960 Speaker 1: whiteboard in our office and you added Marcus Murphy to 1542 01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:33,120 Speaker 1: your fifty three minute to add him he was on 1543 01:14:34,840 --> 01:14:37,680 Speaker 1: was Yeah, it was. I can't decide whether it's going 1544 01:14:37,760 --> 01:14:40,519 Speaker 1: to be Marcus Murphy or Sonorris Perry as that last 1545 01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:44,400 Speaker 1: last running back. He played a lot of snaps last night. 1546 01:14:44,479 --> 01:14:48,200 Speaker 1: He showed obviously with this return that he can contribute. 1547 01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:52,519 Speaker 1: I don't know yet that he contributes in other ways 1548 01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:55,280 Speaker 1: because we've got Andre Roberts as a real as a 1549 01:14:55,360 --> 01:14:58,120 Speaker 1: return man. I think that the top return guy. So 1550 01:14:58,240 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 1: I don't know that mark. Because Murphy isn't a little 1551 01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:04,600 Speaker 1: bit of a redundant skill set that you might not 1552 01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:07,439 Speaker 1: need and Snorris Perry is a big, physical guy who 1553 01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:10,000 Speaker 1: can cover and block and protect and all that stuff. 1554 01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:12,639 Speaker 1: So that may give him an edge. Because I think 1555 01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:15,800 Speaker 1: it'll come down to Heath Farlow probably as to which 1556 01:15:15,840 --> 01:15:19,120 Speaker 1: one he needs the most. It's gonna be a tough call. Yeah, 1557 01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:22,360 Speaker 1: because Marcus Murphy, he's a popular player on a roster, 1558 01:15:22,520 --> 01:15:25,680 Speaker 1: not that that matters, but he's a good player. Told 1559 01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:27,719 Speaker 1: I told the story on the radio last night, Maddie. 1560 01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:31,040 Speaker 1: He got hurt at New England last year, broke his 1561 01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:33,800 Speaker 1: leg and it was two days for Christmas, and he 1562 01:15:33,960 --> 01:15:36,000 Speaker 1: was crushed and I you know it's Christmas time, you know, 1563 01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:38,400 Speaker 1: all your emotions are on your sleeve. And I was like, man, 1564 01:15:38,479 --> 01:15:40,400 Speaker 1: this is the worst possible Christmas you could ever have. 1565 01:15:40,680 --> 01:15:43,320 Speaker 1: Broke his leg. He gets a chance to start and 1566 01:15:43,320 --> 01:15:46,760 Speaker 1: play against England, broke his leg. He's hobbling around the 1567 01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 1: locker room one crutches. I root for that guy. I 1568 01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:51,320 Speaker 1: watched him work so hard out here since January. You know, 1569 01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:53,200 Speaker 1: he really had He knows what he's doing. He's a 1570 01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:55,760 Speaker 1: hard runner, he breaks tackles, he's smart when he's in 1571 01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:57,880 Speaker 1: the game. He can add in special teams as we 1572 01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:00,599 Speaker 1: saw last night, and Eric Wood did have some great 1573 01:16:00,640 --> 01:16:03,800 Speaker 1: things to say about him on the broadcast. I was listening. Yeah, 1574 01:16:03,840 --> 01:16:05,519 Speaker 1: I like the way I like the way Marcus Murphy 1575 01:16:05,560 --> 01:16:08,439 Speaker 1: runs with the football. He runs with an attitude, runs 1576 01:16:08,439 --> 01:16:09,920 Speaker 1: with a little bit of an edge he gets. He 1577 01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:14,439 Speaker 1: is a hard nosed runner, doesn't shy away from contact 1578 01:16:14,560 --> 01:16:17,720 Speaker 1: at all, so he brings a lot to the table. 1579 01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:19,920 Speaker 1: It's kind of but it, let's face it, when he 1580 01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:22,080 Speaker 1: got four guys ahead of him of the caliber of 1581 01:16:22,160 --> 01:16:26,240 Speaker 1: Frank Gore, Lashawn McCoy, Devin Singletary, you've got Pat DeMarco. 1582 01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:29,840 Speaker 1: Who's gonna make the team. Yeah, that fifth guy, who's 1583 01:16:29,840 --> 01:16:31,120 Speaker 1: it gonna be? You know, it's going to be a 1584 01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:33,519 Speaker 1: special teams guy. Yeah. We could spend all day I 1585 01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,640 Speaker 1: feel like going through the entire roster and debating all 1586 01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:38,600 Speaker 1: these bubble players. We're not gonna do that because you 1587 01:16:38,680 --> 01:16:41,760 Speaker 1: came in with an agenda. But we will, which is 1588 01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:44,559 Speaker 1: a good agenda, which is why you're climbing the ring 1589 01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:47,200 Speaker 1: updating what the Bills are up to. These are all reports, 1590 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:50,719 Speaker 1: nothing confirmed yet. The Bills reportedly have traded center Russell 1591 01:16:50,760 --> 01:16:52,680 Speaker 1: Boda into the Patriots for a sixth round pick in 1592 01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:55,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. No confirmation to that, and they have cut 1593 01:16:56,080 --> 01:16:58,320 Speaker 1: I wanted to do the four or five, six, seven, 1594 01:16:58,479 --> 01:17:00,240 Speaker 1: eight players I think we're up to eight. Play is 1595 01:17:00,240 --> 01:17:03,960 Speaker 1: reportedly now cut by the Bills, including wide receiver Nick Easley, 1596 01:17:04,040 --> 01:17:08,240 Speaker 1: offensive lineman Demetrius Rainey, tight end Keith Tobridge, defensive tackle 1597 01:17:08,439 --> 01:17:12,519 Speaker 1: LT Walton, cornerback Denzel Rice, defensive tackle Roderick Young, and 1598 01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:16,120 Speaker 1: wide receiver Victor Bolden.

So 1612 01:17:55,280 --> 01:17:58,479 Speaker 1: my preseason MVPs would be I have to it's hard 1613 01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:01,560 Speaker 1: to choose one, So I would say Matt Barkley and 1614 01:18:01,640 --> 01:18:05,240 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley. Barkley over the preseason, he was twenty nine 1615 01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:07,280 Speaker 1: of thirty eight for three hundred and seventy eight yards 1616 01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:11,000 Speaker 1: three touchdowns, had some great practices. We've talked about him 1617 01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:16,120 Speaker 1: on the show before. A great backup quarterback. Yeah, yeah, 1618 01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:18,400 Speaker 1: that's I could agree with. That he played extremely well. 1619 01:18:18,479 --> 01:18:20,560 Speaker 1: And can I just say, just like you know what, 1620 01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:23,040 Speaker 1: the Stanley Cup has a handler.

Go ahead, 1624 01:18:33,200 --> 01:18:35,800 Speaker 1: we're talking about Matt Barkley. He's a winner of the 1625 01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:41,639 Speaker 1: award goes to Matt Barkley's another one, Cole Beasley. Yeah. 1626 01:18:41,720 --> 01:18:44,320 Speaker 1: So Cole had that game where he was five or 1627 01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:46,800 Speaker 1: five for forty four yards against the Panthers. He has 1628 01:18:46,840 --> 01:18:49,640 Speaker 1: been a big target for Josh Allen. He is going 1629 01:18:49,720 --> 01:18:52,559 Speaker 1: to be a safe target for Josh Allen all season. 1630 01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:54,439 Speaker 1: I think it's a big win to have him on 1631 01:18:54,840 --> 01:18:57,519 Speaker 1: the roster. He says he is thrilled to be a 1632 01:18:57,560 --> 01:18:59,680 Speaker 1: part of this team doing things that he has been 1633 01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:02,439 Speaker 1: to do his entire career but hadn't gotten to do 1634 01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:05,040 Speaker 1: with the Cowboys that he is now able to do 1635 01:19:05,160 --> 01:19:08,960 Speaker 1: with Buffalo. He's thrilled to be here. I think those 1636 01:19:09,080 --> 01:19:12,600 Speaker 1: two great guys who had some awesome preseasons. One of 1637 01:19:12,640 --> 01:19:14,840 Speaker 1: the many, many things I like about Colby Zley This 1638 01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:17,120 Speaker 1: is near the top of the list. Anytime he gets 1639 01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:19,320 Speaker 1: a chance to take a shot at the Cowboys, he does. 1640 01:19:20,720 --> 01:19:25,040 Speaker 1: I love that about Colby. I think that's great. Yeah, 1641 01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:27,360 Speaker 1: that's good. Okay. Now the next Maddie we've got to 1642 01:19:27,439 --> 01:19:31,840 Speaker 1: go down is the most improved player, most improved. It's great. Okay, 1643 01:19:32,120 --> 01:19:34,639 Speaker 1: has this improved since last year? Improved since the start 1644 01:19:34,680 --> 01:19:37,680 Speaker 1: of training Kim, This is improved since you got here 1645 01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:40,679 Speaker 1: the start of training camp, improved since well five weeks 1646 01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:43,200 Speaker 1: in Okay. Yeah. The Maddie for the most improved player 1647 01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:47,519 Speaker 1: goes to the two players we needed. We need an envelope. 1648 01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:48,960 Speaker 1: Now we have the trophy we need. Oh my god, 1649 01:19:49,080 --> 01:19:51,000 Speaker 1: maybe we should do this in season. We can make 1650 01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:54,200 Speaker 1: it a really big deal. Have have an envelope. Maybe 1651 01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:57,120 Speaker 1: we can dress up an oscar where the attire No, 1652 01:19:57,479 --> 01:20:01,960 Speaker 1: you're good, you're good. Here they we've got we're putting 1653 01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:06,360 Speaker 1: it all together as we speak. The most improved, the 1654 01:20:06,479 --> 01:20:09,640 Speaker 1: most improved the Maddie. And you're not gonna say the 1655 01:20:09,680 --> 01:20:11,360 Speaker 1: winner is You're gonna like they do at the Austrian 1656 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:14,160 Speaker 1: say and the most improved goes to and the most 1657 01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:20,360 Speaker 1: improved goes to two players. Duke Williams and Christian Wade 1658 01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:25,160 Speaker 1: oh Okay and Duke Williams. So he's someone who has 1659 01:20:26,080 --> 01:20:30,479 Speaker 1: come onto the scene. As of late preseason training camp 1660 01:20:30,560 --> 01:20:33,560 Speaker 1: Week one, Week two was a little bit quiet, not 1661 01:20:33,960 --> 01:20:37,439 Speaker 1: too many touches there. Nobody's really speaking his name. Now 1662 01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:40,519 Speaker 1: as of the last two weeks, everybody's talking about Duke Williams. 1663 01:20:40,560 --> 01:20:44,000 Speaker 1: He had two touchdowns and four preseason games. He had 1664 01:20:44,040 --> 01:20:46,679 Speaker 1: two catches for eighteen yards last night, and the Vets 1665 01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:48,599 Speaker 1: have a lot of positive things to say about him. 1666 01:20:48,600 --> 01:20:50,880 Speaker 1: I spoke to Cole Easily about Duke and he said 1667 01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:54,439 Speaker 1: that he's someone that I wish every player was like 1668 01:20:54,880 --> 01:20:57,479 Speaker 1: Josh Allen said, He's a guy that does his work. 1669 01:20:57,600 --> 01:21:00,160 Speaker 1: He doesn't talk much. He's happy to do anything. He 1670 01:21:00,200 --> 01:21:02,160 Speaker 1: will add in the blocking game. I think when you 1671 01:21:02,240 --> 01:21:05,599 Speaker 1: have a vent in Cole Beasley and your quarterback talking 1672 01:21:05,640 --> 01:21:07,920 Speaker 1: about you in that way, the team has some sort 1673 01:21:07,960 --> 01:21:11,160 Speaker 1: of respect for you. And Brandon being the general manager 1674 01:21:11,320 --> 01:21:14,200 Speaker 1: said on the TV broadcast last night, you were there, Steve. 1675 01:21:14,280 --> 01:21:17,000 Speaker 1: He said, I wouldn't choose anybody else to go up 1676 01:21:17,040 --> 01:21:20,040 Speaker 1: in the air and catch a ball in the end zone. 1677 01:21:20,120 --> 01:21:22,920 Speaker 1: He's on the roster right anybody doubts. I think he's 1678 01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:24,720 Speaker 1: done and I don't know how much more he could 1679 01:21:24,760 --> 01:21:28,200 Speaker 1: have done. When he got his opportunity, He and Brandon 1680 01:21:28,240 --> 01:21:30,439 Speaker 1: being admitted to it, they were late to the party 1681 01:21:30,479 --> 01:21:32,640 Speaker 1: with Duke. They he kind of was hanging around. They 1682 01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:34,240 Speaker 1: didn't get a cha. They were looking at other guys 1683 01:21:34,280 --> 01:21:35,960 Speaker 1: and they were shuffling things around. They said, listen, we 1684 01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:38,240 Speaker 1: gotta get him some work. They put him in. Of course, 1685 01:21:38,280 --> 01:21:42,800 Speaker 1: he had the really good day against Carolina down down 1686 01:21:42,880 --> 01:21:45,280 Speaker 1: in Carolina, and then of course the game last week 1687 01:21:45,320 --> 01:21:47,599 Speaker 1: in Detroit where he made the fantastic catch for another 1688 01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:51,200 Speaker 1: touchdown's I've watched him in the run game as well. 1689 01:21:51,320 --> 01:21:54,840 Speaker 1: He's really good at blocking off the edge, So he's 1690 01:21:55,080 --> 01:21:57,400 Speaker 1: I think he's made the most of his opportunity. And 1691 01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:00,960 Speaker 1: I think because of his unique side and his unique 1692 01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:04,439 Speaker 1: skill set, they need him. He adds diversity into that 1693 01:22:04,560 --> 01:22:07,320 Speaker 1: wide receiver room with his his strength and his size, 1694 01:22:07,360 --> 01:22:08,720 Speaker 1: the way that he can go up and get a 1695 01:22:08,760 --> 01:22:12,000 Speaker 1: ball whereas other receivers could not do what he can 1696 01:22:12,040 --> 01:22:16,800 Speaker 1: do due to his strength. And with Christian Wade, I 1697 01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:20,000 Speaker 1: think how Christian Wade has learned since he has gotten 1698 01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:24,920 Speaker 1: onto this roster um has been incredible. He spoke about 1699 01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:28,320 Speaker 1: being a three year old among many in the room 1700 01:22:28,360 --> 01:22:30,960 Speaker 1: when it comes to learning how to play in the NFL, 1701 01:22:31,640 --> 01:22:34,439 Speaker 1: his sixty five yard touchdown run against the Colts, getting 1702 01:22:34,479 --> 01:22:37,439 Speaker 1: the game ball in that game. He says, it's been 1703 01:22:37,520 --> 01:22:40,400 Speaker 1: one of the hardest things being on this team and 1704 01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:43,120 Speaker 1: learning at the level that these players sitting next to 1705 01:22:43,240 --> 01:22:46,320 Speaker 1: him are learning at. So I think where he started at, 1706 01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:51,360 Speaker 1: where he's gotten to is a lot with what he's 1707 01:22:51,400 --> 01:22:55,559 Speaker 1: had to um. Even study on his own too, taken 1708 01:22:55,640 --> 01:22:59,040 Speaker 1: work home, doing as much as he can with coaches, 1709 01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:02,920 Speaker 1: with players when he's in the offices, when he's at 1710 01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:05,680 Speaker 1: one Bill's drive in, you know, probably the amount that 1711 01:23:05,720 --> 01:23:07,960 Speaker 1: he's doing all all on his own as well. Okay, 1712 01:23:08,160 --> 01:23:10,920 Speaker 1: there's a couple of Maddie's out. Now you got an 1713 01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:13,920 Speaker 1: envelope for the next category? Is best ridest rookie by 1714 01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:22,160 Speaker 1: the way, that's somebody so the best rookie, the best rookie, 1715 01:23:22,280 --> 01:23:24,720 Speaker 1: best rookie, the Maddie ghost too. You might be able 1716 01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:27,960 Speaker 1: to guess this one. There's a couple of candidates here, Yeah, 1717 01:23:28,040 --> 01:23:31,280 Speaker 1: Sir ed Oliver, Sir Edward to get sir from out 1718 01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:34,600 Speaker 1: of just you know, so why not why not, And 1719 01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:36,960 Speaker 1: he's not sharing this with anybody like he's not sharing 1720 01:23:37,360 --> 01:23:40,320 Speaker 1: Okay at Oliver, good for him, go ahead. I think 1721 01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:43,320 Speaker 1: when he put the pads on in camp, he really 1722 01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:45,800 Speaker 1: showed who he can be and what player he is 1723 01:23:45,920 --> 01:23:48,479 Speaker 1: on the interior for that defensive line. I think he's 1724 01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:51,960 Speaker 1: going to add a strength that the defensive line is 1725 01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:54,160 Speaker 1: going to need this year with Kyle Williams not being 1726 01:23:54,240 --> 01:23:56,799 Speaker 1: on the team, and also the coaching that he received 1727 01:23:56,920 --> 01:24:00,160 Speaker 1: from Kyle in the preseason, I think is unmatched to 1728 01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:02,679 Speaker 1: anything he could have gotten in his first training camp 1729 01:24:02,760 --> 01:24:05,960 Speaker 1: in the NFL. He also admitted that he's been able 1730 01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:08,639 Speaker 1: to open up to his teammates, which has to take 1731 01:24:08,760 --> 01:24:11,439 Speaker 1: some sort of weight off your shoulder being a rookie, 1732 01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:14,360 Speaker 1: being the newbie in the locker room. He went from 1733 01:24:14,400 --> 01:24:18,000 Speaker 1: being the big man on campus to being a small 1734 01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:21,479 Speaker 1: man amongst a lot of vets in that locker room. 1735 01:24:21,560 --> 01:24:24,120 Speaker 1: So I think he's somebody who has shown a lot. 1736 01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:27,160 Speaker 1: He hasn't played a ton in the preseason, but I 1737 01:24:27,280 --> 01:24:30,640 Speaker 1: think in practices he showed the type of player that 1738 01:24:30,720 --> 01:24:33,400 Speaker 1: he's going to become Week one against the Jets. Next 1739 01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:35,679 Speaker 1: category for the Mandies, this is a fun one. Best 1740 01:24:35,720 --> 01:24:39,280 Speaker 1: player to root for? Best player to root for? We 1741 01:24:39,439 --> 01:24:41,519 Speaker 1: talked a little bit about Christian Wade. I'm sure I'm 1742 01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:43,840 Speaker 1: going to bring him up again. Okay, Best player to 1743 01:24:43,920 --> 01:24:47,879 Speaker 1: root for? Christian Wade, just his story coming from rugby, 1744 01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:51,000 Speaker 1: being one of the best players in the rugby league 1745 01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:54,080 Speaker 1: to deciding to come over and play in the NFL. 1746 01:24:54,760 --> 01:24:57,439 Speaker 1: I think that takes a lot of gut to be 1747 01:24:57,520 --> 01:24:59,840 Speaker 1: able to turn away from a sport that you were 1748 01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:02,360 Speaker 1: so good at and to try out something that who 1749 01:25:02,720 --> 01:25:05,960 Speaker 1: knows how it's gonna go. A lot of praise and 1750 01:25:06,600 --> 01:25:08,280 Speaker 1: big applause for him to be able to do that. 1751 01:25:08,600 --> 01:25:11,479 Speaker 1: His family's actually actually here today, which was awesome. I 1752 01:25:11,520 --> 01:25:14,240 Speaker 1: got to meet his parents, and then also one of 1753 01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:17,000 Speaker 1: his friends parents who he played rugby with, there here 1754 01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:18,880 Speaker 1: as well, So it was great to meet his family. 1755 01:25:19,400 --> 01:25:22,280 Speaker 1: Good people. It's been great to be around Christian Wade. 1756 01:25:22,400 --> 01:25:25,559 Speaker 1: He is a light. He's somebody who's very positive, always 1757 01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:28,559 Speaker 1: excited and happy to do anything to help out anyone. 1758 01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:31,000 Speaker 1: I think he's been a bright spot just with his 1759 01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:33,160 Speaker 1: story on the team in the preseason. I have a candidate, 1760 01:25:33,280 --> 01:25:35,240 Speaker 1: guy that has been around here for a couple of years. 1761 01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:38,400 Speaker 1: He played lights out last night. Eddie Yarborough. I root 1762 01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:42,320 Speaker 1: for him. I do. He was the best story three 1763 01:25:42,400 --> 01:25:45,240 Speaker 1: years ago hard he came out of nowhere and made 1764 01:25:45,280 --> 01:25:47,519 Speaker 1: the team and is still here and now last night 1765 01:25:48,120 --> 01:25:50,040 Speaker 1: when his back was against the white like a nine 1766 01:25:50,080 --> 01:25:52,520 Speaker 1: tackles in the first half, seven unassistant it was unbelievable 1767 01:25:52,560 --> 01:25:55,000 Speaker 1: what he did. And he was celebrating too. He had 1768 01:25:55,040 --> 01:25:56,880 Speaker 1: a great game, and coach McDermott said he was really 1769 01:25:56,960 --> 01:25:59,400 Speaker 1: happy for Eddie having a game like that in the 1770 01:25:59,760 --> 01:26:03,000 Speaker 1: fine preseason game before the regular season starts. And you 1771 01:26:03,120 --> 01:26:06,680 Speaker 1: gotta love that celebration, him getting after it, tend get 1772 01:26:06,760 --> 01:26:08,680 Speaker 1: my tackle two of them for losses, for yard role 1773 01:26:08,800 --> 01:26:12,519 Speaker 1: last night. Biggest storyline the Maddies preseason awards. What do 1774 01:26:12,560 --> 01:26:14,719 Speaker 1: you got? All right? I've got two big story lines, 1775 01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:18,599 Speaker 1: one of those being the offensive line. Yeah, second talking 1776 01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:21,519 Speaker 1: about it, but it's been the story out Okay, it's 1777 01:26:21,560 --> 01:26:24,719 Speaker 1: been the story all camp. And I took notes throughout 1778 01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,559 Speaker 1: the first two weeks of who was lining up at 1779 01:26:27,600 --> 01:26:30,439 Speaker 1: the starting spots once they got into first team eleven 1780 01:26:30,520 --> 01:26:33,800 Speaker 1: on eleven and day one of training camp, from left 1781 01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:38,760 Speaker 1: to right was Dawkins, Spain, Morse, Feliciano and Ford and 1782 01:26:38,920 --> 01:26:41,800 Speaker 1: Hopefully soon we will be able to go back to that. 1783 01:26:41,920 --> 01:26:44,760 Speaker 1: Mitch Morse was cleared from concussion protocol. We are still 1784 01:26:44,840 --> 01:26:48,080 Speaker 1: dealing with Quentin Spain and that ankle injury. Hopefully that 1785 01:26:48,240 --> 01:26:50,720 Speaker 1: heals up pretty quickly so they can get to the 1786 01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:55,439 Speaker 1: five that they want to play to start the first 1787 01:26:55,479 --> 01:26:58,920 Speaker 1: game in this season. Yeah, I think that's yeah, that's 1788 01:26:58,920 --> 01:27:00,800 Speaker 1: the big thing that we've been watching. And now we 1789 01:27:00,920 --> 01:27:05,160 Speaker 1: got one last one, the biggest win for the team 1790 01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:08,720 Speaker 1: in the Bills preseason. This is Maddie. This is your 1791 01:27:08,840 --> 01:27:10,760 Speaker 1: the Maddie for the biggest win. What's the biggest one? 1792 01:27:10,800 --> 01:27:12,760 Speaker 1: We're talking about a game or are you talking about 1793 01:27:12,800 --> 01:27:17,519 Speaker 1: just when you open the envelope, pretendvelope again, pretend to 1794 01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:19,640 Speaker 1: opinion and make sure they can hear it on the 1795 01:27:19,880 --> 01:27:22,519 Speaker 1: on the So what is it? What's the biggest win? 1796 01:27:24,520 --> 01:27:27,920 Speaker 1: Wins the Maddie Award for the biggest win in the preseason, 1797 01:27:28,800 --> 01:27:31,599 Speaker 1: the biggest win? Can I have two? Again? Sure? Sure, 1798 01:27:31,640 --> 01:27:36,280 Speaker 1: I'm so awful, way wrong. They've done it wrong. I'm 1799 01:27:36,280 --> 01:27:39,040 Speaker 1: not going to get it wrong, but there's two. One 1800 01:27:39,080 --> 01:27:42,040 Speaker 1: of those. Mitch Morris being out of concussion protocol, I 1801 01:27:42,160 --> 01:27:44,040 Speaker 1: think is a big win for this team. Like I 1802 01:27:44,200 --> 01:27:48,360 Speaker 1: was just saying, they can hopefully get those five on 1803 01:27:48,520 --> 01:27:51,920 Speaker 1: the field for a solid week before they play the 1804 01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:55,760 Speaker 1: Jets in Week one. I think having the confidence in 1805 01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:59,000 Speaker 1: those five for Josh Allen and for the offensive lineman 1806 01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:01,000 Speaker 1: together is going to be huge. I also think it's 1807 01:28:01,080 --> 01:28:03,280 Speaker 1: great that they were able to mix and match throughout 1808 01:28:03,320 --> 01:28:05,720 Speaker 1: the preseason. That may help them going down the road 1809 01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:08,639 Speaker 1: if injuries do come up. Hopefully they do not. Um 1810 01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:12,000 Speaker 1: and the other biggest win would be going foreign in 1811 01:28:12,040 --> 01:28:14,120 Speaker 1: the preseason. I know it's the preseason, I know it 1812 01:28:14,160 --> 01:28:16,320 Speaker 1: doesn't count, but that means this team is getting better 1813 01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:19,080 Speaker 1: and taking steps in the right direction. Even when you 1814 01:28:19,200 --> 01:28:21,679 Speaker 1: have backups who are doing most of the heavy lifting 1815 01:28:21,720 --> 01:28:24,360 Speaker 1: in the preseason. Backups are going to play in the 1816 01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:27,240 Speaker 1: regular season. So to see these guys go out and 1817 01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:29,640 Speaker 1: ball and to see some of the starters have some 1818 01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:33,960 Speaker 1: some great performances in the preseason, I think it's good 1819 01:28:34,000 --> 01:28:36,160 Speaker 1: things ahead for this team. I think you're right, right, Yeah, 1820 01:28:36,640 --> 01:28:39,240 Speaker 1: I agree with you. That's the four. No thing is well, 1821 01:28:39,280 --> 01:28:41,360 Speaker 1: it's not that big a deal. It's it does say 1822 01:28:41,439 --> 01:28:43,519 Speaker 1: something about where they're at and how they and particularly 1823 01:28:43,560 --> 01:28:45,240 Speaker 1: in a couple of them, they had to come back 1824 01:28:45,280 --> 01:28:47,320 Speaker 1: from behind, not just this one last night, but also 1825 01:28:47,360 --> 01:28:49,120 Speaker 1: the one I think in Carolina where they were down. 1826 01:28:49,640 --> 01:28:51,400 Speaker 1: Were they not, I can't remember. I think they were. 1827 01:28:51,400 --> 01:28:53,200 Speaker 1: They were down and we came back and say, yeah, 1828 01:28:53,200 --> 01:28:56,559 Speaker 1: they's all gone now. But yeah, good. Those are good choices, Maddie. 1829 01:28:56,680 --> 01:28:59,560 Speaker 1: That's like them. I like, we're gonna, yeah, I do 1830 01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:01,360 Speaker 1: this again. We're gonna keep those around, gonna get your 1831 01:29:01,400 --> 01:29:03,400 Speaker 1: real same play, same time. We'll take all right and 1832 01:29:03,479 --> 01:29:08,600 Speaker 1: your way down from the bottom near the top of 1833 01:29:08,680 --> 01:29:11,479 Speaker 1: our favorite guest. Maybe I'll get one of these these 1834 01:29:11,520 --> 01:29:14,920 Speaker 1: awards from you guys for working my way up the ladder. Great, 1835 01:29:15,000 --> 01:29:17,720 Speaker 1: thanks Mattie, Thanks, thank you. Maddie glab She is a 1836 01:29:18,080 --> 01:29:20,840 Speaker 1: reporter for the Buffalo Bills dot com for Pagolo Sports 1837 01:29:20,880 --> 01:29:23,640 Speaker 1: and Entertainment, and she's the one behind the Maddies the 1838 01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:25,840 Speaker 1: awards we just gave out. Stephen I coming back with 1839 01:29:26,080 --> 01:29:28,679 Speaker 1: more One Bill's Live from One Bill's Drive on Buffalo 1840 01:29:28,760 --> 01:29:45,360 Speaker 1: Bills Radio. We get along with the Maddie's there, didn't 1841 01:29:45,360 --> 01:29:46,920 Speaker 1: we We did go along with the Maddie's. It was good. 1842 01:29:46,920 --> 01:29:48,679 Speaker 1: I think we might do that for three second before 1843 01:29:48,680 --> 01:29:52,280 Speaker 1: our next commercial break. But those were good. They were good. Yeah, 1844 01:29:52,400 --> 01:29:56,920 Speaker 1: and she puts her work in. I gotta say she does. 1845 01:29:58,479 --> 01:30:00,759 Speaker 1: I wouldn't most of them were I could have gotten. 1846 01:30:01,840 --> 01:30:03,600 Speaker 1: You know. It's a good lesson for us, isn't it. 1847 01:30:04,120 --> 01:30:06,760 Speaker 1: So I was I almost said something to yeah, right, 1848 01:30:07,120 --> 01:30:11,040 Speaker 1: she actually planned that. So the thing she said about 1849 01:30:11,080 --> 01:30:13,680 Speaker 1: Mitch Moore's being a big win being out, she's kind 1850 01:30:13,720 --> 01:30:16,320 Speaker 1: of right. Well, she'll be right if they win on 1851 01:30:16,520 --> 01:30:19,479 Speaker 1: Sunday against the Jets, if their offensive line comes together. 1852 01:30:19,720 --> 01:30:21,120 Speaker 1: But the reason she said that was kind of a 1853 01:30:21,200 --> 01:30:23,160 Speaker 1: win from one of the biggest wins was the fact 1854 01:30:23,240 --> 01:30:25,040 Speaker 1: that all those other guys they had to try stuff. 1855 01:30:25,760 --> 01:30:28,400 Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, they found out about some guys. Yeah, 1856 01:30:28,760 --> 01:30:30,519 Speaker 1: they found out they have some depth. In fact, they're 1857 01:30:30,560 --> 01:30:33,519 Speaker 1: trading away offensive linemen. What if I told you Steve 1858 01:30:36,439 --> 01:30:38,400 Speaker 1: and both of them started the second half of the 1859 01:30:38,439 --> 01:30:40,720 Speaker 1: year last year. What if I told you even five 1860 01:30:40,760 --> 01:30:42,840 Speaker 1: weeks ago when camp began, that the Bills would be 1861 01:30:42,880 --> 01:30:46,320 Speaker 1: in positioned to ship off a couple of offensive linemen. 1862 01:30:46,400 --> 01:30:49,000 Speaker 1: That's so many, well have right, seventeen they went to 1863 01:30:49,040 --> 01:30:50,920 Speaker 1: camp with like fifteen or sixteen. I know that, but 1864 01:30:50,960 --> 01:30:54,800 Speaker 1: it's numbers. I mean you, this is the teams. As 1865 01:30:54,840 --> 01:30:57,479 Speaker 1: I said, it was offensive line waste land in January 1866 01:30:57,520 --> 01:31:00,880 Speaker 1: and February. Is they embarked on this offseason and all 1867 01:31:00,920 --> 01:31:04,000 Speaker 1: of a sudden, they've got enough quality depth of the ship. 1868 01:31:04,080 --> 01:31:06,639 Speaker 1: Guys offer assets for draft picks. That's pretty cool. It's 1869 01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:08,920 Speaker 1: unexpected and pretty neat. I think that's right, and she 1870 01:31:09,080 --> 01:31:13,040 Speaker 1: was right to bring it up, and she did. She 1871 01:31:13,240 --> 01:31:15,760 Speaker 1: was all over it. So I'm glad that you and 1872 01:31:16,080 --> 01:31:17,600 Speaker 1: she kind of agrees with some of the stuff you 1873 01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:19,280 Speaker 1: and I have said. I don't know if I to 1874 01:31:19,360 --> 01:31:23,240 Speaker 1: put Ed Oliver as an MVP for the best rookie. 1875 01:31:23,800 --> 01:31:25,880 Speaker 1: I agree, there's a lot of candidates, a lot of 1876 01:31:25,920 --> 01:31:29,120 Speaker 1: candidates because Ed didn't play that much. Right. Jaquan Johnson 1877 01:31:29,520 --> 01:31:33,559 Speaker 1: was outstanding last night, wasn't he. Yeah? Darryl john Bam Johnson. Yeah, 1878 01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:37,200 Speaker 1: you know what a what a preseason he's had. Yeah, 1879 01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:42,840 Speaker 1: Chris Brown coming up, took every snap.

It was 1920 01:33:59,560 --> 01:34:01,599 Speaker 1: thought that maybe the Dolphins would go with a younger 1921 01:34:01,640 --> 01:34:04,080 Speaker 1: man Josh Rosen.

So, okay, 1935 01:34:44,720 --> 01:34:47,000 Speaker 1: what'd you think of that game last night? I'm um. 1936 01:34:47,640 --> 01:34:49,800 Speaker 1: We heard during the game during the broadcast at Mitch 1937 01:34:49,880 --> 01:34:52,120 Speaker 1: Morse was cleared from protocol and all that, But the 1938 01:34:52,240 --> 01:34:54,760 Speaker 1: game itself, it looked like it was going to be 1939 01:34:54,800 --> 01:34:56,640 Speaker 1: a snooze. Fest with about four minutes ago, and then 1940 01:34:56,680 --> 01:35:00,400 Speaker 1: it turned into a pretty fun finish. Yeah, that turned 1941 01:35:00,400 --> 01:35:06,680 Speaker 1: into the barnburner really fast. Obviously Murphy electrified cry with 1942 01:35:07,520 --> 01:35:11,599 Speaker 1: that turn. It was just amazing the way that kicker 1943 01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:14,640 Speaker 1: and that guy was the subject of a lot of 1944 01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:19,679 Speaker 1: ridicule online on social media because they were saying, well, 1945 01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:23,280 Speaker 1: people are worried about Carly Lloyd playing defense as a kicker. 1946 01:35:25,120 --> 01:35:28,880 Speaker 1: This is not much to live up to, right right, Yeah, 1947 01:35:29,120 --> 01:35:32,719 Speaker 1: he did not look good. But by the same token, 1948 01:35:32,760 --> 01:35:34,800 Speaker 1: what about Mitch Morris being clear, we found that out 1949 01:35:34,880 --> 01:35:37,679 Speaker 1: during the broadcast last night. Brandon Being said yesterday morning, 1950 01:35:38,439 --> 01:35:41,000 Speaker 1: Mitch Morris finally got out of the concussion protocol. He's 1951 01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:43,920 Speaker 1: been practicing full go all week and obviously they held 1952 01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:46,400 Speaker 1: him out of the game last night. There is this 1953 01:35:46,760 --> 01:35:50,360 Speaker 1: enough time from this early in this week till a 1954 01:35:50,479 --> 01:35:52,599 Speaker 1: week from Sunday. Is that enough time for this offensive 1955 01:35:52,600 --> 01:35:56,439 Speaker 1: line to get its get its ducks in a row. 1956 01:35:57,840 --> 01:36:01,040 Speaker 1: Gonna have to be They don't have, as they got 1957 01:36:01,120 --> 01:36:03,800 Speaker 1: ten days to make it happen. And I think it's 1958 01:36:03,840 --> 01:36:06,920 Speaker 1: beneficial that you have a bunch of linemen that are 1959 01:36:07,040 --> 01:36:10,320 Speaker 1: probably going to be the starting five who as we've 1960 01:36:10,360 --> 01:36:14,120 Speaker 1: said many times, have a lot of experience in this league, 1961 01:36:14,120 --> 01:36:17,760 Speaker 1: and we're talking dozens of starts, you know, upwards of 1962 01:36:17,920 --> 01:36:20,080 Speaker 1: fifty sixty games for a lot of these guys who 1963 01:36:20,120 --> 01:36:21,800 Speaker 1: are probably going to be in the darting five. So 1964 01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:24,880 Speaker 1: I think it's a situation where they feel they can 1965 01:36:24,920 --> 01:36:27,400 Speaker 1: pull it together and be ready, and they're gonna need 1966 01:36:27,439 --> 01:36:29,720 Speaker 1: to be because this defension line for the Jets is 1967 01:36:29,720 --> 01:36:32,880 Speaker 1: a pretty impressive one all the way across the board there. 1968 01:36:33,479 --> 01:36:36,720 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be an interesting first test for this 1969 01:36:36,880 --> 01:36:40,479 Speaker 1: group despite the experience that they do have. And I 1970 01:36:40,600 --> 01:36:43,519 Speaker 1: even asked Scorch last night in the postgame press conference. 1971 01:36:44,040 --> 01:36:46,439 Speaker 1: You know, he confirmed that Verse was out of the 1972 01:36:46,520 --> 01:36:50,840 Speaker 1: concusion protocol. But the big issue that I wanted to 1973 01:36:50,920 --> 01:36:53,599 Speaker 1: know was what was the sense of relief on his part, 1974 01:36:54,120 --> 01:36:56,559 Speaker 1: because you can't predict where these things go. You don't 1975 01:36:56,560 --> 01:36:58,599 Speaker 1: know what's going to happen and how quickly a guy's 1976 01:36:58,600 --> 01:37:01,519 Speaker 1: going to come out of protocol, how long it might take. 1977 01:37:02,120 --> 01:37:04,400 Speaker 1: So I have to believe there was a sense of relief. 1978 01:37:04,439 --> 01:37:07,160 Speaker 1: And coach didn't say I was believed and saying oh, 1979 01:37:07,520 --> 01:37:11,080 Speaker 1: but he said it was certainly happy that you know, 1980 01:37:11,120 --> 01:37:12,679 Speaker 1: he knew he was going to have a starting center 1981 01:37:12,720 --> 01:37:14,559 Speaker 1: for the beginning of the regular season. So the state 1982 01:37:14,600 --> 01:37:17,880 Speaker 1: of the offensive line, Chris, with the recent you know, injuries, 1983 01:37:17,920 --> 01:37:20,400 Speaker 1: not major ones, but injuries sustained by Quentin Spain and 1984 01:37:20,520 --> 01:37:23,720 Speaker 1: by Ty and Secky, do we assume that everybody's good 1985 01:37:23,760 --> 01:37:26,760 Speaker 1: to go in nine days? And if so, what is yours? 1986 01:37:27,040 --> 01:37:28,840 Speaker 1: What is your And I know it's only your best 1987 01:37:29,120 --> 01:37:31,960 Speaker 1: possible guests, but what does your offensive line look like 1988 01:37:32,040 --> 01:37:35,920 Speaker 1: for the Bills against the Jets? Left or right? Yeah, 1989 01:37:35,960 --> 01:37:37,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm kind of inclined to go with what 1990 01:37:38,120 --> 01:37:43,000 Speaker 1: we saw in practice this past week, which essentially had 1991 01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:46,840 Speaker 1: Dean Drawkins at left tackle. We don't know what Quentin 1992 01:37:46,960 --> 01:37:49,320 Speaker 1: Spain's situation is. It's the ankle injury going to be 1993 01:37:49,360 --> 01:37:51,439 Speaker 1: such that he can't practice in the early stages of 1994 01:37:51,560 --> 01:37:54,120 Speaker 1: this week, you know, So if that's the page, you 1995 01:37:54,160 --> 01:37:57,599 Speaker 1: could have somebody like Spencer Long over there and left guard. 1996 01:37:58,080 --> 01:38:00,439 Speaker 1: I think that's a little bit up in the air, frankly, 1997 01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:03,000 Speaker 1: But then you have Morrison center. I think fully Siano 1998 01:38:03,080 --> 01:38:05,960 Speaker 1: ships to right guard with Morris back, and then you 1999 01:38:06,040 --> 01:38:08,360 Speaker 1: have Cody Ford at right tackle. I just think that 2000 01:38:08,439 --> 01:38:11,360 Speaker 1: in Secy may have missed a little too much time 2001 01:38:12,320 --> 01:38:15,120 Speaker 1: to get consideration for that starting right tackle spot at 2002 01:38:15,240 --> 01:38:17,240 Speaker 1: least this week. Huh can I can I just say, 2003 01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:19,680 Speaker 1: with all due respect, I hope you're wrong. I want 2004 01:38:19,680 --> 01:38:21,519 Speaker 1: to see Cody Ford at right guard and in second 2005 01:38:21,640 --> 01:38:23,400 Speaker 1: right tackle. If he's not ready, he's not ready, I 2006 01:38:23,479 --> 01:38:26,680 Speaker 1: get that. That would be the best case for me, though. No, 2007 01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:29,320 Speaker 1: I mean I get it. You're not making the call 2008 01:38:29,400 --> 01:38:32,760 Speaker 1: unfortunatelymoth So you're gonna well, we're not the one. Yeah, 2009 01:38:32,800 --> 01:38:34,720 Speaker 1: we're not the ones that watch him on film and 2010 01:38:34,760 --> 01:38:37,040 Speaker 1: watch him practice either. So whatever that five is, they're 2011 01:38:37,040 --> 01:38:38,880 Speaker 1: gonna feel like it's the best five and the best 2012 01:38:38,960 --> 01:38:41,120 Speaker 1: combination of those five that they can put out there, 2013 01:38:41,760 --> 01:38:45,080 Speaker 1: and they're gonna do it, probably have already been doing 2014 01:38:45,120 --> 01:38:47,760 Speaker 1: it at practice to get those guys ready if it's 2015 01:38:47,800 --> 01:38:49,800 Speaker 1: possible with the guys that are injured. I gotta ask 2016 01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:52,320 Speaker 1: you about another injured guy, Tyler Croft. It looks like 2017 01:38:52,439 --> 01:38:54,760 Speaker 1: he's gonna maybe he's gonna be on the fifty three, 2018 01:38:55,240 --> 01:38:58,680 Speaker 1: not on the pup list. Any idea how optimistic they 2019 01:38:58,720 --> 01:39:02,400 Speaker 1: are that how soon he's gonna cont Well, I know Brandon, 2020 01:39:02,520 --> 01:39:06,320 Speaker 1: being on the television broadcast last night, said he was 2021 01:39:06,400 --> 01:39:10,439 Speaker 1: hoping they would get some good news. Now, where do 2022 01:39:10,479 --> 01:39:13,200 Speaker 1: you want to put the percentages there? Fifty fifty at best? 2023 01:39:13,360 --> 01:39:17,400 Speaker 1: I think you know they've been pretty quiet about his progress. 2024 01:39:17,479 --> 01:39:19,759 Speaker 1: We've seen him working out on the side and practice 2025 01:39:19,800 --> 01:39:24,639 Speaker 1: a good deal. I guess this is how you probably 2026 01:39:24,680 --> 01:39:29,000 Speaker 1: have to play this. If you believe he's only a 2027 01:39:29,120 --> 01:39:32,880 Speaker 1: week or two away from being fully clear to practice, 2028 01:39:34,240 --> 01:39:36,800 Speaker 1: then I think you probably find a spot form on 2029 01:39:36,880 --> 01:39:40,000 Speaker 1: the fifty three man roster. If you think it's going 2030 01:39:40,080 --> 01:39:43,360 Speaker 1: to take maybe three or four more weeks, then I 2031 01:39:43,439 --> 01:39:47,360 Speaker 1: think reserved pup has to be a serious consideration because 2032 01:39:47,479 --> 01:39:50,000 Speaker 1: you do have other options at the tight end position 2033 01:39:50,360 --> 01:39:54,719 Speaker 1: that you've turned to in the interim while Croft gets healthy. 2034 01:39:55,200 --> 01:39:57,760 Speaker 1: But I think if he's close to returning, then yeah, 2035 01:39:57,840 --> 01:39:59,880 Speaker 1: he's on the fifty three. If it's three or four 2036 01:40:00,120 --> 01:40:03,280 Speaker 1: more weeks, than maybe it's reserved for up right on 2037 01:40:03,360 --> 01:40:05,800 Speaker 1: line with Chris Brown, Bills insider from Buffalo bills dot 2038 01:40:05,840 --> 01:40:08,759 Speaker 1: com talking about the Bills some roster moves. That's squeeze 2039 01:40:08,800 --> 01:40:10,320 Speaker 1: in the call if we can, I hope you can 2040 01:40:10,400 --> 01:40:13,320 Speaker 1: hear this one, Chris, This is Dave and Akron. Dave, 2041 01:40:13,360 --> 01:40:16,840 Speaker 1: are you there? Go ahead? Hi? John? Hi? Steve, how 2042 01:40:16,880 --> 01:40:20,080 Speaker 1: you doing, Dave? Go ahead? Yeah, I was wondering, Hi, 2043 01:40:20,360 --> 01:40:24,080 Speaker 1: I'm not sure, Like I'm a fifty three rosters. Say 2044 01:40:24,120 --> 01:40:29,040 Speaker 1: you get Williams and McLeod that make the roster, and 2045 01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:32,880 Speaker 1: you're put McKenzie on the ir or the practice squad. 2046 01:40:33,360 --> 01:40:37,360 Speaker 1: How does that? Say? Rayway has a really bad day 2047 01:40:37,760 --> 01:40:39,960 Speaker 1: and you want to get McKenzie, And how does that work? 2048 01:40:40,840 --> 01:40:43,800 Speaker 1: You can't, I mean not on the same day. No, no, 2049 01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:46,479 Speaker 1: I understand that on the same day. But what do 2050 01:40:46,600 --> 01:40:50,360 Speaker 1: you have to then put McLeod on the practice squad 2051 01:40:50,680 --> 01:40:52,519 Speaker 1: and does he have to go through some waivers or 2052 01:40:52,560 --> 01:40:55,000 Speaker 1: how does that work? Everybody that's on the practice squad 2053 01:40:55,160 --> 01:40:58,120 Speaker 1: is on waivers automatically, they're always on waivers. In fact, 2054 01:40:58,160 --> 01:41:00,320 Speaker 1: if you put a guy on the practice squad, he's 2055 01:41:00,360 --> 01:41:02,720 Speaker 1: a free agent, but he's getting to be with the 2056 01:41:02,800 --> 01:41:05,240 Speaker 1: team in practice, with the team all week. Every week 2057 01:41:05,320 --> 01:41:08,160 Speaker 1: he's on the practice squad. So another team could sign 2058 01:41:08,320 --> 01:41:10,920 Speaker 1: him away from you and put him on their practice 2059 01:41:10,920 --> 01:41:12,960 Speaker 1: squad if they want, or they could sign him to 2060 01:41:13,040 --> 01:41:16,920 Speaker 1: the to the UH active roster. UH it's the player's 2061 01:41:17,040 --> 01:41:18,800 Speaker 1: choice if he wants to leave the team he's on, 2062 01:41:19,080 --> 01:41:20,640 Speaker 1: or if if he wants to go sign on the 2063 01:41:20,680 --> 01:41:23,560 Speaker 1: practice squad with another team, but uh, players do that 2064 01:41:23,680 --> 01:41:25,679 Speaker 1: once in a while. They'll go back and forth between 2065 01:41:25,720 --> 01:41:27,880 Speaker 1: the active roster and the and the practice squad. That's 2066 01:41:28,000 --> 01:41:31,680 Speaker 1: that's pretty common for that to happen. And then how 2067 01:41:31,720 --> 01:41:34,800 Speaker 1: does IR work? How long are they out if they 2068 01:41:34,880 --> 01:41:37,120 Speaker 1: get put on IR? If you're on IR, you're out 2069 01:41:37,160 --> 01:41:40,920 Speaker 1: for the year. And then there's also a designated for 2070 01:41:41,080 --> 01:41:43,280 Speaker 1: return and I think they have like three players they 2071 01:41:43,320 --> 01:41:47,120 Speaker 1: can do that with. You know, I know that if 2072 01:41:47,320 --> 01:41:51,479 Speaker 1: put on IR this weekend, you're out for the year. Right, 2073 01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:55,479 Speaker 1: if you after the cut to fifty three, well that 2074 01:41:55,640 --> 01:41:58,880 Speaker 1: would be for the full season. But you can have 2075 01:41:59,160 --> 01:42:02,760 Speaker 1: two I designated your returney. Hey, Chris, Chris Brown, as 2076 01:42:02,760 --> 01:42:05,519 Speaker 1: with us question, this is a roster question. I confess 2077 01:42:05,760 --> 01:42:07,720 Speaker 1: I was looking over your shoulder when you were in 2078 01:42:07,760 --> 01:42:09,760 Speaker 1: our booth last night for the pregame show, and it 2079 01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:11,360 Speaker 1: seemed to me you I think you had a list 2080 01:42:11,439 --> 01:42:17,200 Speaker 1: of practice squad eligible players, right, that's right. I feel 2081 01:42:17,200 --> 01:42:19,960 Speaker 1: like I'm cross examining you here. Can you tell us 2082 01:42:20,080 --> 01:42:22,240 Speaker 1: is there anybody on that list that might surprise folks 2083 01:42:22,320 --> 01:42:25,639 Speaker 1: to know is eligible for the practice squad or in it? Well, 2084 01:42:25,960 --> 01:42:28,479 Speaker 1: I think I think the more important thing to know 2085 01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:30,920 Speaker 1: is this, and this is kind of an unknown thing. 2086 01:42:32,240 --> 01:42:38,680 Speaker 1: There are four practice squad exception that you can have 2087 01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:42,360 Speaker 1: on your ten man practice squad, and that can be 2088 01:42:42,560 --> 01:42:46,400 Speaker 1: players that have accruede citisens in the league. And I 2089 01:42:46,439 --> 01:42:48,840 Speaker 1: don't want to go too far down the rabbit hole here, 2090 01:42:48,920 --> 01:42:52,240 Speaker 1: but just know that they can have four practice squad exceptions. 2091 01:42:52,760 --> 01:42:55,519 Speaker 1: I believe the only restrictions you cannot have more than 2092 01:42:55,640 --> 01:42:59,200 Speaker 1: three accrued seasons in the NFL. You can't be ask 2093 01:42:59,320 --> 01:43:04,040 Speaker 1: and be practice squad okay, So anybody who's got three 2094 01:43:04,160 --> 01:43:08,639 Speaker 1: or fewer seasons accrued in the NFL, you can keep 2095 01:43:08,800 --> 01:43:11,320 Speaker 1: up to four of them on your ten man practice squad. 2096 01:43:11,479 --> 01:43:14,200 Speaker 1: So that opens up the door to a healthy number 2097 01:43:14,280 --> 01:43:17,080 Speaker 1: of players that might be right on the bubble there 2098 01:43:17,160 --> 01:43:19,479 Speaker 1: that you say, well, let's put him on the practice squad, 2099 01:43:20,479 --> 01:43:23,200 Speaker 1: work with him over there, and that way, in the 2100 01:43:23,280 --> 01:43:25,160 Speaker 1: event that we have an injury, we've got a pretty 2101 01:43:25,240 --> 01:43:28,120 Speaker 1: dark player that we can elevate to the active roster. Well, 2102 01:43:28,200 --> 01:43:31,360 Speaker 1: can let me just ask a couple in particular, Isaiah McKenzie, 2103 01:43:31,439 --> 01:43:36,200 Speaker 1: is he eligible practice squad? He would be an acceptance, okay, 2104 01:43:36,200 --> 01:43:37,720 Speaker 1: because he's in his third year. Yeah, I don't have 2105 01:43:37,760 --> 01:43:39,320 Speaker 1: the list in front of me. I can't go scramble 2106 01:43:39,320 --> 01:43:43,040 Speaker 1: and get it. Oh no, don't. Okay, I had a 2107 01:43:43,080 --> 01:43:44,360 Speaker 1: couple of us, but I want to I don't think 2108 01:43:44,400 --> 01:43:47,920 Speaker 1: Marcus Murphy is eligible, right, I believe to be an 2109 01:43:47,920 --> 01:43:51,479 Speaker 1: exception as well. Okay, all right, I'll double check. I'll 2110 01:43:51,520 --> 01:43:53,320 Speaker 1: text it to you later. Let's get back to the check. 2111 01:43:53,400 --> 01:43:55,599 Speaker 1: Let's get back to the general questions about the preseason. 2112 01:43:55,680 --> 01:44:00,400 Speaker 1: What did this Bill's team show you anything about themselves 2113 01:44:00,439 --> 01:44:05,679 Speaker 1: that you didn't know before this preseason started. I think 2114 01:44:05,760 --> 01:44:12,360 Speaker 1: the degree to which this team's internal resolve has thrown 2115 01:44:13,560 --> 01:44:18,559 Speaker 1: over the last year is notable. I think that we're 2116 01:44:18,880 --> 01:44:22,040 Speaker 1: at a place now where this roster top to bottom 2117 01:44:22,320 --> 01:44:27,479 Speaker 1: has embodied the resiliency and resolve of their head coach 2118 01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:30,160 Speaker 1: and maybe certain members of their coaching staff as well. 2119 01:44:30,840 --> 01:44:35,040 Speaker 1: But we're seeing the culture that coach McDermott wanted to 2120 01:44:35,160 --> 01:44:39,520 Speaker 1: cultivate here, the belief in self, the belief in teammates, 2121 01:44:40,240 --> 01:44:44,160 Speaker 1: the resiliency that no matter what situation they're facing twenty 2122 01:44:44,200 --> 01:44:46,400 Speaker 1: three to six with four minutes left in a fourth 2123 01:44:46,479 --> 01:44:51,880 Speaker 1: preseason game, that their approach to the game their respect 2124 01:44:52,120 --> 01:44:56,719 Speaker 1: in how they are expected to play by their fellow teammates, 2125 01:44:57,160 --> 01:45:01,000 Speaker 1: their accountability that they have to those teammates. I think 2126 01:45:01,040 --> 01:45:03,080 Speaker 1: it's as strong as we've ever seen, certainly in the 2127 01:45:03,160 --> 01:45:07,639 Speaker 1: McDermott regime, and maybe in the last twelve these seasons. Well, Chase, 2128 01:45:07,680 --> 01:45:09,320 Speaker 1: you've got to a point that we kind of started 2129 01:45:09,360 --> 01:45:10,680 Speaker 1: our show with. And I don't want to make too 2130 01:45:10,800 --> 01:45:12,840 Speaker 1: much of it. Let me say that right Steel again, 2131 01:45:13,080 --> 01:45:15,479 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say it again. There's a certain buzz around 2132 01:45:15,520 --> 01:45:17,400 Speaker 1: this team, but people who are close to it, people 2133 01:45:17,439 --> 01:45:19,840 Speaker 1: who are on it certainly feel it. Look I'm not. 2134 01:45:19,920 --> 01:45:22,200 Speaker 1: And there's a chemistry and a culture that has been 2135 01:45:22,280 --> 01:45:25,439 Speaker 1: created here. And I think we've seen twice, at least 2136 01:45:26,479 --> 01:45:29,479 Speaker 1: Christian Wade's run in Game one and the comeback last night, 2137 01:45:29,760 --> 01:45:32,800 Speaker 1: we've seen twice examples of how close this team and 2138 01:45:32,920 --> 01:45:36,040 Speaker 1: how strong the bond is among these players. I don't 2139 01:45:36,080 --> 01:45:39,120 Speaker 1: know if it equates in half an extra win, but 2140 01:45:39,200 --> 01:45:41,519 Speaker 1: I think it means something for them as a embark 2141 01:45:41,600 --> 01:45:44,519 Speaker 1: on the twenty nineteen season. Do you agree or disagree, Well, 2142 01:45:44,560 --> 01:45:47,000 Speaker 1: I'll tell you where it will help them, Because you 2143 01:45:47,120 --> 01:45:49,280 Speaker 1: can make all the arguments you want as to whether 2144 01:45:49,320 --> 01:45:51,479 Speaker 1: it's ultimately going to help in the win column. Where 2145 01:45:51,520 --> 01:45:55,240 Speaker 1: it will help them as in tight games when you 2146 01:45:55,320 --> 01:45:58,240 Speaker 1: know it's crunch time and somebody's got to make a play, 2147 01:45:59,080 --> 01:46:02,720 Speaker 1: and these guys have been as close knit as they 2148 01:46:02,800 --> 01:46:05,000 Speaker 1: have been, they're not looking to the other guy to 2149 01:46:05,080 --> 01:46:06,680 Speaker 1: make the play. They're gonna say, I'm gonna make it 2150 01:46:06,800 --> 01:46:10,000 Speaker 1: for my teammates. And that's not just one or two guys. 2151 01:46:10,120 --> 01:46:13,000 Speaker 1: That's eleven guys on the field all want to do 2152 01:46:13,160 --> 01:46:16,080 Speaker 1: that on that given play, and I think with everybody 2153 01:46:16,160 --> 01:46:18,680 Speaker 1: pulling on that rope at the same time, it can 2154 01:46:18,760 --> 01:46:20,760 Speaker 1: make a difference in those tight games and be the 2155 01:46:20,840 --> 01:46:24,600 Speaker 1: difference between winning and losing. At the same time. I 2156 01:46:24,720 --> 01:46:29,000 Speaker 1: think where it may help the most is when adversity struck. Yeah, 2157 01:46:29,040 --> 01:46:32,240 Speaker 1: because every NFL team has some stretch of adversity at 2158 01:46:32,320 --> 01:46:34,280 Speaker 1: some point in the season, whether it's a two game 2159 01:46:34,360 --> 01:46:37,920 Speaker 1: losing streak that was completely unexpected or something worse than that. 2160 01:46:38,479 --> 01:46:41,760 Speaker 1: And I think because of how tight knit the group is, 2161 01:46:42,520 --> 01:46:45,559 Speaker 1: not just amongst the players, this cross is over players 2162 01:46:45,600 --> 01:46:49,040 Speaker 1: to coaches, coaches to players. It's a very faint line 2163 01:46:49,080 --> 01:46:52,120 Speaker 1: there between the coaches and the players that I really 2164 01:46:52,160 --> 01:46:55,880 Speaker 1: haven't seen maybe since the time when Steve teams were 2165 01:46:55,920 --> 01:46:59,760 Speaker 1: playing where there was just this inherent respect for one 2166 01:46:59,800 --> 01:47:04,000 Speaker 1: of that flowed both ways. And so I think where 2167 01:47:04,040 --> 01:47:06,519 Speaker 1: that's going to help the most is when adversity strikes this, 2168 01:47:06,600 --> 01:47:08,600 Speaker 1: he's going to be able to weather it and just 2169 01:47:08,760 --> 01:47:14,040 Speaker 1: press on. What do you think one player maybe that today, 2170 01:47:14,160 --> 01:47:16,439 Speaker 1: maybe not five weeks ago, that you thought had no 2171 01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:18,960 Speaker 1: shot of making a team, is probably going to make 2172 01:47:19,000 --> 01:47:24,879 Speaker 1: the team. I was very encouraged by what Eddie Yarborough 2173 01:47:24,960 --> 01:47:27,519 Speaker 1: did to help his case last night. I mean, nine 2174 01:47:27,560 --> 01:47:30,240 Speaker 1: tackles at halftime, Are you kidding me? He was all 2175 01:47:30,400 --> 01:47:33,519 Speaker 1: over the field. And I know he's not playing against 2176 01:47:33,520 --> 01:47:36,200 Speaker 1: starters in the league. He was playing largely against backups 2177 01:47:36,240 --> 01:47:41,639 Speaker 1: as well. But the dynamics at defensive end changed earlier 2178 01:47:41,720 --> 01:47:45,080 Speaker 1: this week when Mike Love went on injured reserve. And 2179 01:47:45,240 --> 01:47:47,680 Speaker 1: so if this team decides they're going to keep a 2180 01:47:47,800 --> 01:47:52,599 Speaker 1: fifth defensive end and go nine on the defensive line, 2181 01:47:52,720 --> 01:47:56,840 Speaker 1: five defensive ends for defensive tackles, Eddie Yarborough made a 2182 01:47:56,880 --> 01:47:59,040 Speaker 1: case to be the fifth defensive end last night, and 2183 01:47:59,120 --> 01:48:02,000 Speaker 1: I'd give it to him. Yeah, do you think that? 2184 01:48:02,080 --> 01:48:04,679 Speaker 1: And that's gonna be up. It's gonna be the last guy. 2185 01:48:04,880 --> 01:48:07,680 Speaker 1: And Brandon being said in our production meetings the other 2186 01:48:07,760 --> 01:48:10,800 Speaker 1: day that he looks at this team and he always 2187 01:48:10,800 --> 01:48:15,160 Speaker 1: starts with position minimums, and then that gives you a 2188 01:48:15,280 --> 01:48:18,320 Speaker 1: couple handful maybe of guys who can be put at 2189 01:48:18,400 --> 01:48:20,519 Speaker 1: any position you want. Can't take him from anyone. If 2190 01:48:20,560 --> 01:48:23,320 Speaker 1: they go five defensive ends, where do they go short 2191 01:48:23,360 --> 01:48:28,040 Speaker 1: on the defensive side, and with nine defensive lineman, what 2192 01:48:28,240 --> 01:48:30,519 Speaker 1: six linebackers and how many dbs? Where do they go 2193 01:48:30,720 --> 01:48:34,360 Speaker 1: light on someplace else? Yeah? I think they may only 2194 01:48:34,439 --> 01:48:37,120 Speaker 1: go for a safety. You know, that might be where 2195 01:48:37,160 --> 01:48:40,519 Speaker 1: they have to trim where Jaquan Johnson and Kurs Coleman 2196 01:48:40,560 --> 01:48:43,080 Speaker 1: are your third and fourth safeties and a guy like 2197 01:48:43,200 --> 01:48:46,800 Speaker 1: Saran Neil maybe ends up on the practice Squod and Kristi, 2198 01:48:46,920 --> 01:48:48,639 Speaker 1: we ask you about the Bodine trade yet I don't 2199 01:48:48,680 --> 01:48:50,280 Speaker 1: think we have him. No, we have note let's get 2200 01:48:50,280 --> 01:48:53,360 Speaker 1: into that a little bit. Well, you can go anywhere 2201 01:48:53,360 --> 01:48:55,320 Speaker 1: you want with us. I think it says something about 2202 01:48:55,360 --> 01:48:58,840 Speaker 1: the Bills that for the second consecutive day they feel 2203 01:48:58,920 --> 01:49:02,440 Speaker 1: like they have a surplus of talent, and it's demonstrated 2204 01:49:02,479 --> 01:49:05,800 Speaker 1: now teams are trading away for their offensive line talent. Yes, 2205 01:49:05,880 --> 01:49:08,240 Speaker 1: I know they're lower round draft picks, but man, if 2206 01:49:08,240 --> 01:49:09,960 Speaker 1: you would have told me six seven months ago they'd 2207 01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:11,759 Speaker 1: be in this position, I would have thought you were crazy. 2208 01:49:12,040 --> 01:49:14,280 Speaker 1: Offensive line was a waste land back in February and 2209 01:49:14,360 --> 01:49:17,400 Speaker 1: March before they got going in free agency. Yeah, it's 2210 01:49:17,400 --> 01:49:20,360 Speaker 1: an interesting conversation that I had with Eric Good on 2211 01:49:20,439 --> 01:49:24,640 Speaker 1: the pregame radio show yesterday. But he talked about it 2212 01:49:24,720 --> 01:49:29,840 Speaker 1: and I echoed it. There is an alarming lack of 2213 01:49:30,000 --> 01:49:34,599 Speaker 1: offensive line depth across the league, Like you can't find 2214 01:49:35,920 --> 01:49:39,679 Speaker 1: a six seventh, eighth offensive lineman that's worth his salt 2215 01:49:40,320 --> 01:49:42,600 Speaker 1: with more than half the rosters in this league. It 2216 01:49:42,760 --> 01:49:45,520 Speaker 1: is at an all time low. And it's a byproduct 2217 01:49:45,720 --> 01:49:49,400 Speaker 1: of where the college offenses are going. Everybody's in two 2218 01:49:49,439 --> 01:49:53,240 Speaker 1: point stances and so because of that, if you don't 2219 01:49:53,320 --> 01:49:56,920 Speaker 1: have really good on the job training with your NFL 2220 01:49:57,000 --> 01:50:00,639 Speaker 1: club to develop some of these guys, you're looking for people. 2221 01:50:01,200 --> 01:50:04,720 Speaker 1: And I had I have it on good authority that 2222 01:50:04,840 --> 01:50:07,080 Speaker 1: the Bill's phone has been ringing a lot this week. 2223 01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:09,680 Speaker 1: There were a lot of teams interested in why a 2224 01:50:09,800 --> 01:50:13,840 Speaker 1: teller the other day Cleveland ultimately gets him. And there's 2225 01:50:13,880 --> 01:50:16,680 Speaker 1: a lot of people on the phone probably today and 2226 01:50:16,920 --> 01:50:20,160 Speaker 1: even tomorrow before four o'clock because this is a busy 2227 01:50:20,240 --> 01:50:22,320 Speaker 1: time in the league for front offices. They're trying a 2228 01:50:22,439 --> 01:50:25,040 Speaker 1: priorway talent that they want to get their hands on 2229 01:50:25,439 --> 01:50:28,840 Speaker 1: before they're completely exposed to the thirty other teams in 2230 01:50:28,880 --> 01:50:32,479 Speaker 1: the NFL. And the Boating deal says something about New England, right, 2231 01:50:32,560 --> 01:50:34,920 Speaker 1: obviously they lost their center, but it says something about 2232 01:50:34,920 --> 01:50:38,640 Speaker 1: the Patriots and maybe a whiff of desperation in Foxborough. 2233 01:50:38,640 --> 01:50:41,240 Speaker 1: Am I reading too much into it? Yeah? I mean 2234 01:50:41,360 --> 01:50:44,120 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know if he's going to start 2235 01:50:45,120 --> 01:50:48,200 Speaker 1: for them at center with ten days before the regular season. 2236 01:50:48,280 --> 01:50:51,520 Speaker 1: That just doesn't strike me as the way that Belichick operates. 2237 01:50:53,400 --> 01:50:56,920 Speaker 1: I kind of see Ted Carris probably starting for them 2238 01:50:56,960 --> 01:51:00,920 Speaker 1: at center, and then Fern's is the backup. Now, I 2239 01:51:01,000 --> 01:51:04,719 Speaker 1: think Bodine is the better and insurance plan in case 2240 01:51:04,800 --> 01:51:07,760 Speaker 1: those two plan blow up. But you look at it 2241 01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:11,639 Speaker 1: and Russell Bodine has seventy four starts in the NFL. 2242 01:51:12,200 --> 01:51:14,639 Speaker 1: I mean, that's nothing to sneeze at. And that's why 2243 01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:17,720 Speaker 1: he was a trade commodity for the Bills, whether it 2244 01:51:17,800 --> 01:51:20,240 Speaker 1: was going to be on this roster or not. Because 2245 01:51:20,760 --> 01:51:23,920 Speaker 1: Ted Harris has five starts in the NFL inference has none. 2246 01:51:24,560 --> 01:51:30,360 Speaker 1: So to me, Bodin is an insurance plan for them. Right, Well, 2247 01:51:30,439 --> 01:51:33,200 Speaker 1: that's what else you got for us? Brown, I mean 2248 01:51:33,280 --> 01:51:36,479 Speaker 1: this is worth four weeks into this, we're ready for 2249 01:51:36,520 --> 01:51:38,720 Speaker 1: the regular season to start. How does the Jet game 2250 01:51:38,840 --> 01:51:41,400 Speaker 1: look now to you? For Murph and I, We've been 2251 01:51:41,439 --> 01:51:43,439 Speaker 1: talking about it for about two weeks now. We've been 2252 01:51:43,520 --> 01:51:45,559 Speaker 1: looking down the road at it, and the game's starting 2253 01:51:45,600 --> 01:51:48,519 Speaker 1: to get bigger and bigger and bigger, as in more important, 2254 01:51:48,600 --> 01:51:52,639 Speaker 1: more important, more important is that the way you see it, Well, 2255 01:51:52,680 --> 01:51:56,120 Speaker 1: anytime you have a division game week one, the measuring 2256 01:51:56,200 --> 01:51:59,040 Speaker 1: stick is a little bit bigger here in terms of importance, 2257 01:51:59,520 --> 01:52:02,960 Speaker 1: as we know, because you only have six division games, 2258 01:52:03,240 --> 01:52:06,320 Speaker 1: and this is a winnable one even though it is 2259 01:52:06,400 --> 01:52:08,679 Speaker 1: on the road, so you've got to make the most 2260 01:52:08,720 --> 01:52:11,599 Speaker 1: of that opportunity. But Week one is also the most 2261 01:52:11,640 --> 01:52:14,920 Speaker 1: difficult week to prepare for, especially when you're facing the 2262 01:52:15,000 --> 01:52:19,759 Speaker 1: Jets team with granted, an offensive scheme they've seen before, 2263 01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:24,120 Speaker 1: but with completely different personnel, and then a defensive scheme. 2264 01:52:24,640 --> 01:52:27,560 Speaker 1: You know when Greg Williams, it's well traveled, but you 2265 01:52:27,640 --> 01:52:30,800 Speaker 1: know he's gonna be pulling everything out of his back 2266 01:52:30,880 --> 01:52:34,519 Speaker 1: pocket in Week one when there's no film on what 2267 01:52:34,720 --> 01:52:36,600 Speaker 1: he wants to do with the personnel he at his 2268 01:52:36,680 --> 01:52:39,920 Speaker 1: disposal in New York. So I just see this as 2269 01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:44,320 Speaker 1: a very quizzical kind of macup matchup in terms of 2270 01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:46,280 Speaker 1: what the Jets are going to face from the Bills 2271 01:52:46,320 --> 01:52:47,960 Speaker 1: and what the Bills are gonna face from the Jets. 2272 01:52:48,880 --> 01:52:50,840 Speaker 1: And I think it's gonna be a dog fight, guys, 2273 01:52:50,880 --> 01:52:53,760 Speaker 1: I really do. It's a great Week one matchup for 2274 01:52:53,880 --> 01:52:58,439 Speaker 1: fans in terms of entertainment value. But people are gonna 2275 01:52:58,439 --> 01:53:00,599 Speaker 1: be biting their nails in this one, I think, Yeah, 2276 01:53:00,760 --> 01:53:03,360 Speaker 1: I think so because it matters. Last one I have 2277 01:53:03,479 --> 01:53:06,320 Speaker 1: for you, Christ and that's the Buffalo offense going into 2278 01:53:06,400 --> 01:53:09,439 Speaker 1: this regular season. Obviously they do their best to disguise 2279 01:53:09,520 --> 01:53:11,960 Speaker 1: what their true intentions are. But I'm wondering what you 2280 01:53:12,040 --> 01:53:14,040 Speaker 1: think Brian Dable has in mind for this group, and 2281 01:53:14,479 --> 01:53:17,639 Speaker 1: especially in terms of maybe balancing out the run pass 2282 01:53:18,200 --> 01:53:20,960 Speaker 1: imbalance that we saw last year and with this in 2283 01:53:21,040 --> 01:53:22,640 Speaker 1: mind too, and I have a feeling you'll take it 2284 01:53:22,720 --> 01:53:25,160 Speaker 1: this way, day Ball. It seems to me wants to 2285 01:53:25,200 --> 01:53:28,360 Speaker 1: be able to adjust weekly, right. He wants that Patriots 2286 01:53:28,439 --> 01:53:30,720 Speaker 1: a template, right, like, we'll do this this week, We'll 2287 01:53:30,760 --> 01:53:33,320 Speaker 1: do this this week something else. Right, That's probably what 2288 01:53:33,439 --> 01:53:34,920 Speaker 1: he's looking at, right, Or do you think he has 2289 01:53:34,960 --> 01:53:38,800 Speaker 1: a plan for this offense. Well, I think there's an 2290 01:53:38,920 --> 01:53:43,719 Speaker 1: underlying plan that will be the identity of the offense, 2291 01:53:44,800 --> 01:53:47,439 Speaker 1: but I think there are going to be things layered 2292 01:53:47,479 --> 01:53:51,880 Speaker 1: in each week to keep it from being predictable, and 2293 01:53:51,920 --> 01:53:53,640 Speaker 1: a lot of it will be matchup based. As we 2294 01:53:53,760 --> 01:53:57,000 Speaker 1: know that's kind of his history, and I think with 2295 01:53:57,600 --> 01:54:01,560 Speaker 1: the added depth of Ellent on the offensive side of 2296 01:54:01,600 --> 01:54:03,880 Speaker 1: the ball, whether you want to look at running back, 2297 01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:07,680 Speaker 1: tight end, or wide receiver, he's going to make use 2298 01:54:07,920 --> 01:54:10,439 Speaker 1: of the whole lot of those people. It wouldn't shock 2299 01:54:10,560 --> 01:54:13,719 Speaker 1: me if from week to week there are different people 2300 01:54:13,800 --> 01:54:18,080 Speaker 1: that are inactive, provided everybody's healthy, based on who he 2301 01:54:18,240 --> 01:54:21,280 Speaker 1: feels is the best match up that week. So it's 2302 01:54:21,320 --> 01:54:23,400 Speaker 1: going to be interesting to see who's up and who's 2303 01:54:23,439 --> 01:54:25,760 Speaker 1: down every week, because I think that's going to be 2304 01:54:25,840 --> 01:54:28,160 Speaker 1: a hint as to what you're looking at in terms 2305 01:54:28,360 --> 01:54:30,640 Speaker 1: of the game plan that week. They might come out 2306 01:54:30,720 --> 01:54:33,360 Speaker 1: one week and have four wide one backset for fifty 2307 01:54:33,400 --> 01:54:35,480 Speaker 1: percent of the game, and then the next week they 2308 01:54:35,560 --> 01:54:38,840 Speaker 1: might be running two backs, two tight ends and coming 2309 01:54:38,880 --> 01:54:41,800 Speaker 1: straight at you, and I think the offense has reached 2310 01:54:41,800 --> 01:54:46,000 Speaker 1: a point based on Josh's command of it, a stable 2311 01:54:46,120 --> 01:54:51,560 Speaker 1: quarterback situation where you can run more stuff based on 2312 01:54:52,320 --> 01:54:55,560 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks command of the offense and the ability of 2313 01:54:55,600 --> 01:54:58,040 Speaker 1: the offensive line in front of them to be more 2314 01:54:58,120 --> 01:55:00,280 Speaker 1: diversified this season. Well, there's the last thing I've got 2315 01:55:00,320 --> 01:55:02,680 Speaker 1: for you, Chris. We spoke in the production meeting to 2316 01:55:02,720 --> 01:55:05,560 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott. He talked about the new staff, A bunch 2317 01:55:05,560 --> 01:55:07,560 Speaker 1: of new guys he's got on the staff, you know, 2318 01:55:07,680 --> 01:55:10,320 Speaker 1: Ken Dorsey, a couple of analytics guys that are on 2319 01:55:10,400 --> 01:55:13,839 Speaker 1: the headsets during games about what they're thinking, play selection, 2320 01:55:14,240 --> 01:55:18,080 Speaker 1: possession count, all kinds of analytic terminology that they use. 2321 01:55:18,600 --> 01:55:20,680 Speaker 1: How big a step forward was there to make for 2322 01:55:20,760 --> 01:55:24,120 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott and the staff, And how have you seen, 2323 01:55:24,400 --> 01:55:28,640 Speaker 1: if anything, this preseason? You know, this coaching staff starts 2324 01:55:28,680 --> 01:55:30,880 Speaker 1: to do things a little bit differently as well with 2325 01:55:31,040 --> 01:55:34,960 Speaker 1: their game management, clock management, time out management, communication. Sean 2326 01:55:35,080 --> 01:55:37,840 Speaker 1: McDermott seemed to think there was a big difference this year. 2327 01:55:37,920 --> 01:55:42,520 Speaker 1: Have you noticed it. I think that's a difficult thing 2328 01:55:42,600 --> 01:55:46,560 Speaker 1: to discern, especially after only seeing four preseason games where 2329 01:55:46,600 --> 01:55:49,760 Speaker 1: you really don't see their true plans in action. They're 2330 01:55:49,840 --> 01:55:51,600 Speaker 1: keeping all of that close to the desk right now. 2331 01:55:51,680 --> 01:55:53,520 Speaker 1: I think it might be more readily apparent when we 2332 01:55:53,560 --> 01:55:55,960 Speaker 1: get to the regular season, Steve, but I will say 2333 01:55:55,960 --> 01:56:00,080 Speaker 1: it is at the end of last season. Normally the 2334 01:56:00,280 --> 01:56:05,080 Speaker 1: process is each position coach goes through their players files 2335 01:56:05,120 --> 01:56:08,440 Speaker 1: and end of season report on each player. At the 2336 01:56:08,600 --> 01:56:11,800 Speaker 1: end of last season, coach McDermott went to his players 2337 01:56:12,520 --> 01:56:15,600 Speaker 1: and asked them to put together a report on each 2338 01:56:15,680 --> 01:56:18,960 Speaker 1: of the coaches, including him. I mean, this is a 2339 01:56:19,040 --> 01:56:23,600 Speaker 1: coach that talks about daily self improvement, but he embodies 2340 01:56:23,640 --> 01:56:25,840 Speaker 1: it as well. And he said I had it to 2341 01:56:25,920 --> 01:56:29,000 Speaker 1: do lest for myself, whether it's coaches challenges, which I 2342 01:56:29,080 --> 01:56:31,120 Speaker 1: know he's been criticized on a lot in his first 2343 01:56:31,160 --> 01:56:36,560 Speaker 1: two seasons, to game management, clock management, communication on the 2344 01:56:36,640 --> 01:56:40,520 Speaker 1: sideline with upstairs in the booth, getting the analytics stuff 2345 01:56:40,560 --> 01:56:45,160 Speaker 1: from upstairs downstairs in an efficient fashion. So there's a 2346 01:56:45,320 --> 01:56:49,160 Speaker 1: lot that the coaching staff worked on so they're better 2347 01:56:49,280 --> 01:56:52,200 Speaker 1: on game day also, and I think that's going to 2348 01:56:52,240 --> 01:56:54,960 Speaker 1: help push this team forward as well. And Steve, I'm 2349 01:56:55,000 --> 01:56:57,320 Speaker 1: glad you guys mentioned it because it is kind of 2350 01:56:57,360 --> 01:56:59,880 Speaker 1: one of those hidden things that the Bills as a 2351 01:57:00,080 --> 01:57:02,839 Speaker 1: coaching staff have tried to turn into with an advantage 2352 01:57:02,840 --> 01:57:05,400 Speaker 1: for this season. Chris Brown Bills Inside or Chris Uh. 2353 01:57:06,120 --> 01:57:07,680 Speaker 1: You know a lot of reports have out there there 2354 01:57:07,720 --> 01:57:11,240 Speaker 1: will be from now until late tomorrow about reported moves. 2355 01:57:11,280 --> 01:57:12,960 Speaker 1: That's important, I think for Bill's fence to know. The 2356 01:57:13,000 --> 01:57:16,320 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills dot com is really the authoritative place to go. 2357 01:57:16,440 --> 01:57:19,080 Speaker 1: And once everything's official, tell us what you'll have up 2358 01:57:19,120 --> 01:57:20,960 Speaker 1: on the website. I'm sure you'll have analysis of the 2359 01:57:21,000 --> 01:57:25,000 Speaker 1: Bills moves as well, right right, So we'll have the 2360 01:57:25,080 --> 01:57:28,040 Speaker 1: cuts once they're official and have the full list there 2361 01:57:28,080 --> 01:57:32,200 Speaker 1: for everybody. We'll have a comprehensive report on the numbers 2362 01:57:32,200 --> 01:57:34,920 Speaker 1: at each position, and then we'll kind of have the 2363 01:57:35,040 --> 01:57:38,040 Speaker 1: drive through window version, you know, for those fans that 2364 01:57:38,200 --> 01:57:40,240 Speaker 1: just have about ten minutes to scroll it up on 2365 01:57:40,280 --> 01:57:43,280 Speaker 1: their phone. Five things you need to know about the 2366 01:57:43,320 --> 01:57:46,760 Speaker 1: Bills twenty nineteen roster. What is the final deadline for 2367 01:57:46,840 --> 01:57:48,680 Speaker 1: when they set their practice squad? When do you think 2368 01:57:48,720 --> 01:57:50,040 Speaker 1: that'll be? And I don't know they can go into 2369 01:57:50,080 --> 01:57:52,680 Speaker 1: the season with an eight man or five man practice squad, 2370 01:57:52,920 --> 01:57:55,440 Speaker 1: but if they max it out, how soon will that happen? 2371 01:57:56,360 --> 01:57:58,560 Speaker 1: Is there a deadline. Well, there's a twenty four hour 2372 01:57:58,680 --> 01:58:01,920 Speaker 1: waiver period, right, and that's Sunday at four until twenty 2373 01:58:01,960 --> 01:58:04,440 Speaker 1: four hours later. Right, that's Sunday at four when the 2374 01:58:04,600 --> 01:58:09,280 Speaker 1: waiver claims I have to be in right, So you've 2375 01:58:09,320 --> 01:58:13,480 Speaker 1: got a start assembling very quickly after that, provided nobody's 2376 01:58:13,480 --> 01:58:16,760 Speaker 1: been picked up off waivers. And then sometimes what you 2377 01:58:16,880 --> 01:58:21,440 Speaker 1: run into is a battle for some of those players 2378 01:58:21,480 --> 01:58:23,720 Speaker 1: you want to add to your practice squad because maybe 2379 01:58:23,760 --> 01:58:26,880 Speaker 1: another team is promising them more than you can in 2380 01:58:27,040 --> 01:58:31,160 Speaker 1: terms of an opportunity to get elevated to the active roster. Now, 2381 01:58:31,600 --> 01:58:33,720 Speaker 1: I think what's working in favor of the Bills is 2382 01:58:33,760 --> 01:58:37,879 Speaker 1: the fact that Brandon Bean was very open about elevating 2383 01:58:37,920 --> 01:58:41,280 Speaker 1: a tone of young players late last year, and so 2384 01:58:41,480 --> 01:58:44,280 Speaker 1: I think that will serve the Bills well in retaining 2385 01:58:44,400 --> 01:58:47,160 Speaker 1: maybe some of their own where they cut on Saturday 2386 01:58:47,240 --> 01:58:50,520 Speaker 1: but want to add to the roster late Sunday into Monday. Chris, 2387 01:58:50,640 --> 01:58:52,839 Speaker 1: thanks for this, have a good weekend. We'll be following 2388 01:58:52,920 --> 01:58:54,720 Speaker 1: you on Buffalo bills dot com and on all the 2389 01:58:55,120 --> 01:58:58,440 Speaker 1: social media platforms. Thanks.

We can talk about that. 2398 01:59:18,600 --> 01:59:20,640 Speaker 1: We can talk about the reports of the Russell Bodin 2399 01:59:20,720 --> 01:59:23,160 Speaker 1: trade to the Patriots. Adam Scheffer reports that and the 2400 01:59:23,280 --> 01:59:26,920 Speaker 1: reports of what at least seven cuts made already nothing 2401 01:59:26,960 --> 01:59:29,240 Speaker 1: to ficial from the Bills, but they reportedly are ready 2402 01:59:29,280 --> 01:59:32,920 Speaker 1: to say goodbye to cornerback Denzel Rice, wide receiver Victor Bolden, 2403 01:59:32,960 --> 01:59:38,720 Speaker 1: wide receiver Nick Easley, offensive tackle Demetrius Rainey, defensive tackle 2404 01:59:38,880 --> 01:59:43,240 Speaker 1: LT Walton, tight end Keith Tobridge, and defensive lineman Roderick Young. 2405 01:59:43,600 --> 01:59:46,360 Speaker 1: Those are reports by the Athletic, not sing official yet. 2406 01:59:46,520 --> 01:59:48,240 Speaker 1: Steve and I coming back, Come on back with us. 2407 01:59:48,280 --> 01:59:51,880 Speaker 1: It is One Bills Live presented by kalidah Health Live 2408 01:59:52,000 --> 01:59:56,560 Speaker 1: from the Seneca Studio, Seneca Resorts in Casino.

We're gonna I'm gonna shift gears over 2416 02:00:30,160 --> 02:00:32,120 Speaker 1: the weekend. I'll be into it over the weekend. I'm 2417 02:00:32,120 --> 02:00:34,200 Speaker 1: gonna do at least I'll probably do the Jets my 2418 02:00:34,600 --> 02:00:37,040 Speaker 1: spotting board this weekend, even though I'll probably have to 2419 02:00:37,120 --> 02:00:39,720 Speaker 1: make changes as the cuts come in. Wait till Sunday 2420 02:00:39,760 --> 02:00:41,640 Speaker 1: or Monday. But you know you have two to do. 2421 02:00:42,120 --> 02:00:43,640 Speaker 1: And can I tell you what a pleasure it is 2422 02:00:44,080 --> 02:00:46,160 Speaker 1: to do a spotting board with fifty three names as 2423 02:00:46,200 --> 02:00:49,120 Speaker 1: opposed to ninety one. Oh man, well that's only good. 2424 02:00:49,160 --> 02:00:50,960 Speaker 1: Hand was hurting. Both teams are gonna be a one 2425 02:00:51,000 --> 02:00:52,720 Speaker 1: hundred and six guys. I mean that's it, you know, 2426 02:00:52,880 --> 02:00:55,240 Speaker 1: I get you. Yeah, it's right. And I used to 2427 02:00:55,320 --> 02:00:57,240 Speaker 1: tinker with all my boards all the time. I used 2428 02:00:57,280 --> 02:00:59,600 Speaker 1: to try. I tried in a bunch of different ways. 2429 02:00:59,640 --> 02:01:03,080 Speaker 1: I had the positional layout when they faced each other, 2430 02:01:03,440 --> 02:01:08,880 Speaker 1: and then I had like a vertically roster. Wise I 2431 02:01:09,040 --> 02:01:12,360 Speaker 1: kind of gravitated towards the numericle I've seen you and 2432 02:01:12,480 --> 02:01:15,840 Speaker 1: then do that. And then I also color code everything 2433 02:01:15,840 --> 02:01:19,200 Speaker 1: differently than you do. I color coded with the team colors, okay, 2434 02:01:19,400 --> 02:01:21,560 Speaker 1: and you color coded two different colors for the teams, 2435 02:01:21,600 --> 02:01:25,160 Speaker 1: but also like with rookies, draft, free ages, draft, and 2436 02:01:26,800 --> 02:01:29,440 Speaker 1: that's your own personal color. I can't change now, you know. 2437 02:01:30,800 --> 02:01:32,800 Speaker 1: That's the thing. If you find something the works, you 2438 02:01:32,880 --> 02:01:34,640 Speaker 1: don't need to change it, Yeah, because I can read 2439 02:01:34,680 --> 02:01:37,840 Speaker 1: it quickly until the only what would change, what would 2440 02:01:37,880 --> 02:01:39,560 Speaker 1: cause you to change it was if they started doing 2441 02:01:39,640 --> 02:01:41,880 Speaker 1: things way differently they had to keep track of different stuff, 2442 02:01:41,920 --> 02:01:43,800 Speaker 1: then you could change it. But yeah, but it's been 2443 02:01:43,840 --> 02:01:45,960 Speaker 1: the same for so for instance, many teams, I mean 2444 02:01:46,040 --> 02:01:48,680 Speaker 1: many people consider a nickel corner as a starter, and 2445 02:01:48,840 --> 02:01:51,320 Speaker 1: most teams play in nickel most of the time. And 2446 02:01:51,440 --> 02:01:53,680 Speaker 1: so this year for the first time, so you have 2447 02:01:54,120 --> 02:01:56,680 Speaker 1: two safeties and usually two corners, but I've made a 2448 02:01:56,720 --> 02:01:59,640 Speaker 1: separate category for the nickel corner. He's a starter, right, Yeah, 2449 02:01:59,720 --> 02:02:02,960 Speaker 1: that's yeah, It's just a little inside baseball for you. Hey, um, 2450 02:02:03,200 --> 02:02:04,640 Speaker 1: we got a little bit of time left here in 2451 02:02:04,640 --> 02:02:06,080 Speaker 1: the show. We got a couple of phone calls on 2452 02:02:06,200 --> 02:02:09,200 Speaker 1: the line. You've heard the report right Russell Boating traded 2453 02:02:09,280 --> 02:02:11,840 Speaker 1: to the Patriots for a six round pick next year. 2454 02:02:11,880 --> 02:02:14,000 Speaker 1: You may want to comment on that. We'll take phone 2455 02:02:14,000 --> 02:02:16,800 Speaker 1: calls at eight three fifty toll free one eight eight 2456 02:02:16,960 --> 02:02:20,120 Speaker 1: eight five fifty two five fifty tim and Lackawana has 2457 02:02:20,120 --> 02:02:21,560 Speaker 1: been waiting for a while. Time, go ahead, you're on 2458 02:02:21,640 --> 02:02:25,720 Speaker 1: the air with this. Yes. Two comments and reasons for 2459 02:02:25,840 --> 02:02:31,280 Speaker 1: the Boating trade. One, it's part of the McDermott being 2460 02:02:31,400 --> 02:02:34,160 Speaker 1: processed and picking up assets. They went into this year's 2461 02:02:34,240 --> 02:02:36,920 Speaker 1: draft with I think ten picks and came out with eight, 2462 02:02:36,960 --> 02:02:39,400 Speaker 1: and then it allowed them to move around get the 2463 02:02:39,480 --> 02:02:42,200 Speaker 1: guys as they wanted, and it possibly it looks to 2464 02:02:42,280 --> 02:02:45,760 Speaker 1: be like all eight certainly are worthy of making the 2465 02:02:45,840 --> 02:02:50,400 Speaker 1: fifty three roster. And then the second one is Game four. 2466 02:02:52,000 --> 02:02:55,600 Speaker 1: If Boating ends up being the starter, he has a 2467 02:02:55,640 --> 02:03:00,280 Speaker 1: proprehentsesivet for for getting blown up and that could lead 2468 02:03:00,320 --> 02:03:03,880 Speaker 1: to mister Brady getting knocked on his butt, maybe knocked 2469 02:03:03,880 --> 02:03:08,920 Speaker 1: out of the game, and maybe a covert car from 2470 02:03:09,280 --> 02:03:13,680 Speaker 1: wester Ford or west here cars ends up in mister 2471 02:03:13,760 --> 02:03:20,800 Speaker 1: Bodine's driving, they bribe him to let him go. Yeah, Um, listen, 2472 02:03:20,880 --> 02:03:23,320 Speaker 1: if if they think so little, I don't think that's 2473 02:03:23,360 --> 02:03:26,120 Speaker 1: the case. I think they liked Russell Bodine, but um, 2474 02:03:26,480 --> 02:03:28,640 Speaker 1: he wasn't playing well enough to make the team. I 2475 02:03:28,680 --> 02:03:31,200 Speaker 1: don't think that they think by trading Bodine to the 2476 02:03:31,360 --> 02:03:34,240 Speaker 1: Patriots it's going to help them in week four. Um, 2477 02:03:34,960 --> 02:03:38,080 Speaker 1: the Patriots are seem to be good at getting the 2478 02:03:38,120 --> 02:03:40,280 Speaker 1: most out of the guys they have something. The conventional 2479 02:03:40,320 --> 02:03:43,080 Speaker 1: wisdom is, especially your division rivals, if they need help, 2480 02:03:43,160 --> 02:03:45,320 Speaker 1: you let them starve. Right, you let him exactly, you 2481 02:03:45,360 --> 02:03:48,000 Speaker 1: don't help him at all. That Russell Russell Bodine goes 2482 02:03:48,040 --> 02:03:50,480 Speaker 1: away and nobody ever sees him again before you give 2483 02:03:50,520 --> 02:03:52,560 Speaker 1: him to the pager. I was thinking about this in terms. 2484 02:03:52,640 --> 02:03:55,800 Speaker 1: In other terms, the Jets are in desperate need of corners, 2485 02:03:55,840 --> 02:03:57,560 Speaker 1: and I was thinking about some of the corners you know, 2486 02:03:57,800 --> 02:03:59,560 Speaker 1: LOFFI have pits and others that may or may not 2487 02:03:59,600 --> 02:04:01,840 Speaker 1: have a on the Buffalo roster, and thinking maybe the 2488 02:04:01,880 --> 02:04:04,480 Speaker 1: bills can turn down into assets. And then I thought, no, 2489 02:04:04,600 --> 02:04:06,920 Speaker 1: don't help the Jets. Let them find their own corners. Yeah, 2490 02:04:07,000 --> 02:04:09,080 Speaker 1: and the same applies to Bodine and the Patriots. And 2491 02:04:09,160 --> 02:04:12,200 Speaker 1: that's I am. But here's the thing they had. If 2492 02:04:12,240 --> 02:04:15,120 Speaker 1: they would have had other offers for Russ Bodine, they 2493 02:04:15,240 --> 02:04:18,600 Speaker 1: might have second guest take given him to the Patriots, 2494 02:04:18,640 --> 02:04:20,480 Speaker 1: even if they had getting if the Patriots given him 2495 02:04:20,520 --> 02:04:22,600 Speaker 1: a six and the other team gave him a seventh 2496 02:04:22,680 --> 02:04:25,240 Speaker 1: in another year, you know, in a twenty one year 2497 02:04:25,560 --> 02:04:28,480 Speaker 1: to twenty twenty one, they might have thought twice about, 2498 02:04:28,720 --> 02:04:30,880 Speaker 1: you know, not making the trade with the Patriots and 2499 02:04:30,920 --> 02:04:32,960 Speaker 1: giving him to somebody else, trading him to somebody else. 2500 02:04:33,320 --> 02:04:36,919 Speaker 1: Even so, they still risk him going to the Dolphins, 2501 02:04:37,520 --> 02:04:41,200 Speaker 1: the Jets, or the Patriots. If they've cut him and 2502 02:04:41,240 --> 02:04:42,880 Speaker 1: make him a free agent. He could still sign with 2503 02:04:42,920 --> 02:04:45,360 Speaker 1: the Patriots, no problem. But at least this way they 2504 02:04:45,400 --> 02:04:48,120 Speaker 1: get something back for him. Call from Brian and Snyder, 2505 02:04:48,200 --> 02:04:49,720 Speaker 1: New York. Go ahead, Brian, you're on the air with this, 2506 02:04:52,000 --> 02:04:55,000 Speaker 1: are you there, Brian Man, You've been waiting a long time, 2507 02:04:55,120 --> 02:04:57,520 Speaker 1: but he's gone. Let's go to the tweet sheet. The 2508 02:04:57,560 --> 02:05:00,560 Speaker 1: tweet sheet with an answers to our question on on 2509 02:05:00,720 --> 02:05:02,960 Speaker 1: the Twitter question today. The tweet sheet brought to you 2510 02:05:03,080 --> 02:05:06,160 Speaker 1: by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official movers of the Buffalo 2511 02:05:06,240 --> 02:05:09,320 Speaker 1: Bills tweet sheet go ahead, who will be the surprise 2512 02:05:09,400 --> 02:05:11,960 Speaker 1: player on the Bills roster September eighth versus the Jets? 2513 02:05:12,400 --> 02:05:15,120 Speaker 1: From Tiffany, she says, Marcus Murphy makes it. He provides 2514 02:05:15,120 --> 02:05:17,520 Speaker 1: you running back depth, He's an excellent special teams contributor, 2515 02:05:17,520 --> 02:05:21,360 Speaker 1: and he's a culture guy that fits team identity. From Tiffany. 2516 02:05:21,480 --> 02:05:23,520 Speaker 1: From Jack, he says, I think the surprise guy will 2517 02:05:23,560 --> 02:05:27,480 Speaker 1: be Bates, the offensive lineman. I think he did enough 2518 02:05:27,520 --> 02:05:30,320 Speaker 1: in the last few weeks and his position versatility will 2519 02:05:30,400 --> 02:05:33,560 Speaker 1: keep him here. Don't sleep on Butcker. Also sticking maybe 2520 02:05:33,640 --> 02:05:36,320 Speaker 1: over Spencer Long. He's cheaper, younger, and can also play 2521 02:05:36,400 --> 02:05:39,120 Speaker 1: all the line positions. I hope they keep seven wide receivers, 2522 02:05:39,520 --> 02:05:41,480 Speaker 1: but it's gonna be hard to do that. Jack's tweet 2523 02:05:41,480 --> 02:05:43,520 Speaker 1: there is interesting, and Eric would make good points on 2524 02:05:43,600 --> 02:05:47,040 Speaker 1: our radio broadcast last night about Butcker. He Eric believes 2525 02:05:47,080 --> 02:05:50,560 Speaker 1: Butcker's had a good couple of games here. Jack is right, 2526 02:05:50,680 --> 02:05:53,600 Speaker 1: Bucker showed some versatility. He's played center, he's played guard. 2527 02:05:53,880 --> 02:05:55,600 Speaker 1: Have I seen him played tackle? I don't think I have. 2528 02:05:55,680 --> 02:05:57,400 Speaker 1: So he doesn't play all the positions, but there is 2529 02:05:57,800 --> 02:06:00,600 Speaker 1: position flex there, which is good. So I agree about 2530 02:06:00,640 --> 02:06:03,040 Speaker 1: Ryan Bates. I mean again, they traded away an asset, 2531 02:06:03,120 --> 02:06:06,360 Speaker 1: Eli Harold to get Ryan Bates again more versatility there. 2532 02:06:06,640 --> 02:06:08,920 Speaker 1: I think he has something to say Bates does. I 2533 02:06:08,960 --> 02:06:12,120 Speaker 1: would think about the offensive line picture that's probably in 2534 02:06:12,280 --> 02:06:14,360 Speaker 1: debate as we speak right now. Yeah, And I think 2535 02:06:14,400 --> 02:06:16,520 Speaker 1: with these guys, for like the seven and eight guys 2536 02:06:16,560 --> 02:06:20,839 Speaker 1: on the offensive line, it's more about, you know, obviously, 2537 02:06:20,880 --> 02:06:23,200 Speaker 1: it's about which position, which which position they're gonna be 2538 02:06:23,240 --> 02:06:25,560 Speaker 1: backing up? Is it a guard, tackle or guard, center 2539 02:06:26,000 --> 02:06:29,560 Speaker 1: or center? Guard or tackle right or left? A swing tackle? 2540 02:06:29,800 --> 02:06:31,320 Speaker 1: Which one is it gonna be? I think that has 2541 02:06:31,360 --> 02:06:32,560 Speaker 1: a lot to do with it. And I also think 2542 02:06:32,600 --> 02:06:36,880 Speaker 1: it has to do with their mentality. How Bobby Johnson 2543 02:06:37,000 --> 02:06:39,840 Speaker 1: thinks they're gonna be in the room, Are they gonna help, 2544 02:06:40,040 --> 02:06:42,040 Speaker 1: Are they gonna be okay if they're the eighth guy? 2545 02:06:42,480 --> 02:06:44,920 Speaker 1: Are they going to go into the tank? Some guys 2546 02:06:45,000 --> 02:06:47,080 Speaker 1: do that. So there's a lot of things that we'll 2547 02:06:47,160 --> 02:06:50,000 Speaker 1: never know until we see that roster come out as 2548 02:06:50,040 --> 02:06:52,600 Speaker 1: to how they evaluate these guys and what each guy 2549 02:06:52,720 --> 02:06:55,440 Speaker 1: brings off the fields. You know, some of these guys, 2550 02:06:55,520 --> 02:06:58,600 Speaker 1: you know them, but we don't know him. These coaches 2551 02:06:58,640 --> 02:07:02,080 Speaker 1: and players get to know each other really personally, and 2552 02:07:02,240 --> 02:07:04,640 Speaker 1: they know each other's personalities, they know what their voice 2553 02:07:04,680 --> 02:07:07,560 Speaker 1: sounds like, you know, in a dark room when they're 2554 02:07:07,560 --> 02:07:09,960 Speaker 1: when they're running film and guys are chiming in on 2555 02:07:10,000 --> 02:07:11,280 Speaker 1: the film and say, well, I was thinking this, and 2556 02:07:11,360 --> 02:07:13,120 Speaker 1: I was thinking that you get to know him really well, 2557 02:07:13,480 --> 02:07:16,920 Speaker 1: and that that really gets mixed into the evaluation process, 2558 02:07:16,960 --> 02:07:19,360 Speaker 1: and that's something you know, as as close to the 2559 02:07:19,440 --> 02:07:22,760 Speaker 1: team as we could be. Well, never, we'll never know. 2560 02:07:23,240 --> 02:07:25,960 Speaker 1: You'll never know. So there's there's gonna be something. That's 2561 02:07:25,960 --> 02:07:30,320 Speaker 1: why there's always some surprises, because there's some surprisingly unknown 2562 02:07:30,440 --> 02:07:33,360 Speaker 1: things that happen where nobody can see. The question of 2563 02:07:33,400 --> 02:07:35,080 Speaker 1: the day, who will be the surprise player on the 2564 02:07:35,160 --> 02:07:37,880 Speaker 1: roster and the season opener? Brian tweets this, and I 2565 02:07:38,040 --> 02:07:40,919 Speaker 1: think they might keep both. Duke Williams and Isaai McKenzie. 2566 02:07:41,000 --> 02:07:43,680 Speaker 1: Both have shown enough to make the team. Mackenzie seems 2567 02:07:43,720 --> 02:07:46,840 Speaker 1: more versatile, but his skill set may be redundant. Duke 2568 02:07:46,920 --> 02:07:49,360 Speaker 1: Williams gives a unique skill set relative to the rest 2569 02:07:49,360 --> 02:07:54,000 Speaker 1: of the roster. Could keeping both foreshadow a future trade? Yeah, 2570 02:07:54,400 --> 02:07:57,360 Speaker 1: everything's open. Duke Williams had some interesting comments in the 2571 02:07:57,400 --> 02:08:00,600 Speaker 1: locker room yesterday, as he finished off his fort preseason 2572 02:08:00,640 --> 02:08:03,760 Speaker 1: stint with the Buffalo Bills, the CFL transferred Duke Williams 2573 02:08:04,080 --> 02:08:06,160 Speaker 1: was asked about the chance he's had to fight for 2574 02:08:06,240 --> 02:08:08,680 Speaker 1: a roster spot with the Bills this year. Here's what 2575 02:08:08,800 --> 02:08:12,920 Speaker 1: he had to say. I approached with a big chip 2576 02:08:12,960 --> 02:08:15,280 Speaker 1: of my shoulder. You know, I had my problems in college. 2577 02:08:15,320 --> 02:08:17,920 Speaker 1: I lost it all overnight and it was tough to 2578 02:08:17,960 --> 02:08:20,080 Speaker 1: get back here. So I cherished every moment and I 2579 02:08:20,200 --> 02:08:22,080 Speaker 1: told myself, once I get back in this situation, that 2580 02:08:22,600 --> 02:08:24,880 Speaker 1: may shy give it all I got. Well, it's interesting 2581 02:08:24,920 --> 02:08:26,840 Speaker 1: he played that way, right, like a guy who knows 2582 02:08:26,960 --> 02:08:29,280 Speaker 1: this is his second chance and he's got to make 2583 02:08:29,320 --> 02:08:31,040 Speaker 1: the best of it. He played that way, Yeah, he did. 2584 02:08:31,160 --> 02:08:33,560 Speaker 1: He spent a couple of years in Canada playing, had 2585 02:08:33,600 --> 02:08:35,560 Speaker 1: played it for a contract up there and played very 2586 02:08:35,600 --> 02:08:37,200 Speaker 1: well up there, and got a chance to come back 2587 02:08:37,320 --> 02:08:42,560 Speaker 1: down to the States. And you talk about learning the 2588 02:08:42,640 --> 02:08:45,240 Speaker 1: hard way he did. He self admitted he has never 2589 02:08:45,360 --> 02:08:47,040 Speaker 1: hidden from the fact that he blew it when he 2590 02:08:47,120 --> 02:08:50,000 Speaker 1: was in college, had some problems, had to grow up, 2591 02:08:50,160 --> 02:08:53,440 Speaker 1: and here he is. You can see he did play 2592 02:08:53,480 --> 02:08:54,920 Speaker 1: with a chip on his shoulder. In fact, that's the 2593 02:08:55,000 --> 02:08:56,960 Speaker 1: word I used. You know, that's kind of the attitude 2594 02:08:57,000 --> 02:08:59,360 Speaker 1: I describe you about why he may make it. They 2595 02:08:59,440 --> 02:09:01,720 Speaker 1: need guys with chips on their shoulders on this team, 2596 02:09:01,800 --> 02:09:05,160 Speaker 1: you know, and Duke Williams for sure gives them that. Yep. 2597 02:09:05,680 --> 02:09:08,200 Speaker 1: So we got till four pm tomorrow, right when the 2598 02:09:08,280 --> 02:09:10,920 Speaker 1: roster has to be finalized at fifty three. After the 2599 02:09:10,960 --> 02:09:13,880 Speaker 1: game last night, Bill's head coach Sean McDermott talked about 2600 02:09:13,920 --> 02:09:16,160 Speaker 1: that the roster cutdown Shere's what he said last night 2601 02:09:16,400 --> 02:09:18,800 Speaker 1: about the process of cutting down this roster to fifty 2602 02:09:18,840 --> 02:09:24,360 Speaker 1: three players. This is a tough time if you were 2603 02:09:24,400 --> 02:09:26,600 Speaker 1: just in that locker room. I mean, it's these guys 2604 02:09:26,680 --> 02:09:28,720 Speaker 1: put it up, put it out there, they put it 2605 02:09:28,760 --> 02:09:31,920 Speaker 1: on the line, and UM. To win like that, UM, 2606 02:09:32,160 --> 02:09:34,640 Speaker 1: and then have to say goodbye to you know, almost 2607 02:09:34,680 --> 02:09:37,240 Speaker 1: half the team, That's that's hard to do. Well, that's 2608 02:09:37,280 --> 02:09:40,240 Speaker 1: the business we're in. UM. But like I told the 2609 02:09:40,280 --> 02:09:42,280 Speaker 1: guys before the game, I told them, they're all winners 2610 02:09:42,360 --> 02:09:44,240 Speaker 1: and no matter what it is, whether they play football 2611 02:09:44,320 --> 02:09:46,840 Speaker 1: for one more night like tonight, or or ten more 2612 02:09:47,120 --> 02:09:49,640 Speaker 1: ten more years, it's it's been an out or to 2613 02:09:49,680 --> 02:09:52,960 Speaker 1: be around them and I think they'll remember this, this 2614 02:09:53,120 --> 02:09:57,400 Speaker 1: game tonight for a long time. Yes, I guess it's 2615 02:09:57,400 --> 02:09:59,960 Speaker 1: a relative question. But do you feel like maybe you're 2616 02:10:00,040 --> 02:10:02,240 Speaker 1: decisions this year are more difficult than they've better in 2617 02:10:02,280 --> 02:10:05,000 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. Yeah, I mean I think so. 2618 02:10:05,200 --> 02:10:07,000 Speaker 1: And that's what you want. I mean, if you're building 2619 02:10:07,040 --> 02:10:09,280 Speaker 1: the roster the right way, that's that's what you want. 2620 02:10:09,400 --> 02:10:12,400 Speaker 1: You want those tough decisions. You want people to be 2621 02:10:12,480 --> 02:10:15,360 Speaker 1: looking at your roster and instead of us looking at 2622 02:10:15,400 --> 02:10:17,600 Speaker 1: everybody else's and saying, man, we need this piece of 2623 02:10:17,640 --> 02:10:19,920 Speaker 1: that piece in this you know. And so, um there 2624 02:10:20,040 --> 02:10:22,520 Speaker 1: is still that we still do that. Don't get me wrong, 2625 02:10:22,720 --> 02:10:27,040 Speaker 1: but um, you do feel better when there's greater levels 2626 02:10:27,080 --> 02:10:31,520 Speaker 1: of competition and more position battles, and um, those guys 2627 02:10:31,560 --> 02:10:36,200 Speaker 1: have have embraced that, that willingness to compete even though 2628 02:10:36,320 --> 02:10:40,120 Speaker 1: being teammates. And I think he saw that in the preseason. 2629 02:10:40,560 --> 02:10:42,480 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott wraps it up and gets ready for the 2630 02:10:42,600 --> 02:10:45,080 Speaker 1: weekend to hand with the cuts coming four pm tomorrow, 2631 02:10:45,120 --> 02:10:46,600 Speaker 1: the deadline. That's one of the things too. It is 2632 02:10:46,640 --> 02:10:49,440 Speaker 1: hard to say goodbye to these guys. And but here's 2633 02:10:49,440 --> 02:10:52,520 Speaker 1: what never gets to be said. Sometimes McDermott kind of 2634 02:10:52,520 --> 02:10:55,000 Speaker 1: alluded to it in his remarks. Just because they're not 2635 02:10:55,080 --> 02:10:58,400 Speaker 1: on this football team doesn't mean they're bad guys, And 2636 02:10:58,520 --> 02:11:01,240 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that on personal level you wouldn't love 2637 02:11:01,280 --> 02:11:02,720 Speaker 1: to keep in touch with him and be friends. But 2638 02:11:02,880 --> 02:11:04,640 Speaker 1: it just means at this particular point in history, they 2639 02:11:04,760 --> 02:11:07,360 Speaker 1: they're not gonna be on this football team. That doesn't 2640 02:11:07,400 --> 02:11:11,720 Speaker 1: mean that, you know, they disappear into another universe, never 2641 02:11:11,800 --> 02:11:13,360 Speaker 1: to be seen or heard from again. And there's a 2642 02:11:13,440 --> 02:11:15,720 Speaker 1: chance that someone may circle back around and end up 2643 02:11:15,720 --> 02:11:17,880 Speaker 1: on this roster. We've got a break here.
