Speaker 4: Tomorrow Tomorrow, which fingers crossed the rain holds off. It's

9
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 4: supposed to rain in the morning early afternoons, so hopefully

10
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 4: that doesn't cancel any of the bands that are planning

11
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 4: to play on Sunday heading to the PGN Sunday. We

12
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 4: are going to be one amongst many fish in the

13
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 4: sea basically on Sunday because.

14
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 5: It's going to act. Yeah, we're going to be working

15
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 5: through crowds all day.

16
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 2: I got to ask you this because when I moved

17
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 2: to Western New York permanently or twenty five years ago,

18
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 2: I had never heard of a meat raffle before. Now

19
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 2: are you in that same boat, Like you had never

20
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 2: heard of a.

21
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 5: Meat raffer in that boat? I had never heard of

22
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 5: a meat raffle.

23
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:45,759
Speaker 6: And I was like, what is?

24
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 2: And people are like, oh my god, they're awesome, like

25
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 2: they're unbelievable, it's entertain I.

26
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 5: Haven't been to one still, I haven't been to one.

27
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 5: I want to go.

28
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 6: I think this is my I think it's my third.

29
00:01:58,880 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 6: Do I have that right?

30
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 2: I think it's my third because the first two were

31
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 2: kind of spread out, so now it's kind of slipping

32
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 2: my mind? Did I was I unable to go to

33
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 2: the second one? I can't even remember. Anyway, I've been

34
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 2: to one at least, and it's it's a show. I mean,

35
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 2: you hear the words like meat raft raffle, Does it really.

36
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 6: Like you know what I mean? It doesn't.

37
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 2: It's not like, oh yeah, I want to be a

38
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 2: part of that. Yeah, but if you go to one,

39
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: they're pretty lively.

40
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 4: I got to say, and are you going in with

41
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 4: the plan? Are you just there to enjoy the evening?

42
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 7: Well?

43
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 2: I mean, well there are some people when you go

44
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:40,399
Speaker 2: to these they are hell bent on winning something. Yeah,

45
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: so they are heavy on the ticket bune and you

46
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 2: know that's kind of you know, your best chance, it's success.

47
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 2: But there are inevitably the people. I mean, this is

48
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 2: no matter where you go, whether you're going to a

49
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: fundraiser and there's a basket raffle, whether you go to

50
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 2: a meat raffle, there is someone that seems to inevitably

51
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 2: be winning the lion's share.

52
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 6: Of the loop.

53
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: And you're just like, what's going on? Did they did

54
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 2: they just buy like four hundred dollars worth of tickets

55
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 2: and they're just cleaning up on everything or are they

56
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: just that lucky?

57
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 6: You know what I mean?

58
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: So you always have there always seems to be one

59
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 2: of those people. So I'll tell you a very quick story.

60
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 2: Is the first meet raffle we go to. It's in

61
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 2: the middle of a snowstorm in February. Fortunately it was

62
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 2: only five miles from our house so we'd have to

63
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 2: go far.

64
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 6: So here we are trudging through the snow.

65
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 2: It's it's like eight inches on the ground and it's

66
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 2: still snowing the whole night. So we get to the

67
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 2: place and you know, it's you know, the atmosphere is great,

68
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 2: it's nice. People are happy, they're having fun, and you know,

69
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 2: the stuff's going. And everybody at our table except for

70
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 2: me and my wife and this other couple have won stuff.

71
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 2: So there's like twelve people at the table. Eight people

72
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 2: like individually like the eight other couples, all of the

73
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 2: eight other people have won something. So the night's winding down,

74
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 2: this other couple that hadn't won anything finally won like

75
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 2: ribs or something, and so me and my wife.

76
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 6: Are still haven't wanted anything.

77
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 2: So we get to the it's like one of the

78
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 2: last two things that they're raffling off.

79
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 6: I want to stick a pepperoni.

80
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 5: I was gonna say, you get a pack? Did you

81
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:21,919
Speaker 5: get a pack of bacon?

82
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 8: Home?

83
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 6: Empty handed? I got along.

84
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 2: You know, it's like, all right, at least we didn't

85
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 2: get shut out. So I am hoping for much better

86
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 2: luck tonight, especially heading into grilling season. Like you win

87
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 2: some meat in February, it's like it's hard to kind

88
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 2: of get excited about it because you're not going to

89
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 2: turn it around for a meal for a while. I mean,

90
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 2: I always suppose you get slow roasted in your oven

91
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 2: or something like if you got ribs or something. But

92
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,359
Speaker 2: knowing we're rolling right into grill season here, you know,

93
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 2: I'm kind of hoping to get a couple of things

94
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 2: in the cooler, which is the other thing you bring

95
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 2: your cooler. Although some people say that's bad karma because

96
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 2: now you're like.

97
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 5: You're thinking that you're gonna win to win.

98
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 2: And that's not how you do it. But I don't

99
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 2: think I want to roll up without a cooler.

100
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 5: Like you gotta gotta be prepared.

101
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, it, I mean.

102
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 2: It's basically like an in your tailgate. That's kind of

103
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 2: what they're like. That's what a mean raffle is. Wow,

104
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 2: that's how I would describe it for people that have

105
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 2: not experienced it before. So looking forward to that. Hopefully

106
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 2: it's a we'll let you know how I did on Monday.

107
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 5: Yeah, you got to report back.

108
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 2: I will.

109
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 5: It'll be you and I on Monday, and I.

110
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 2: Will equally want to report back on.

111
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 9: I should have story Sunday.

112
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 5: I went on Tuesday.

113
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 4: So we went Tuesday with some of our players to

114
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,239
Speaker 4: be a part of an event that was called Beyond

115
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 4: the Green and it was a really cool event which

116
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 4: was a bunch of first Tea kids. So it's a

117
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 4: bunch of kids that they get involved in golf and

118
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 4: so they had an entire day of activities and the

119
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 4: day I think ended with a Q and A from

120
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 4: a bunch of our players. So Josh was there, Tyler Bass,

121
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 4: Kyle Allen, Matt Barkley and kyer elam all came to

122
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 4: speak to the group of kids and I helped do

123
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 4: a Q and A with them, And Josh Allen is

124
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 4: a big deal over there. We know he's a big

125
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 4: deal quarterback. But these kids lost their freaking minds when

126
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 4: I introduced Josh Allen because he was in the back.

127
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 5: So we kind of.

128
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 2: Hit now, what's the age of these kids about?

129
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 4: Like I would say the age range was from maybe

130
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 4: eight to eighteen. It was a big range of kids

131
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 4: who were getting involved in golfer, had already been golfing

132
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 4: and got to be a part of a couple events

133
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 4: at Okill this weekend, and so it was an awesome

134
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 4: event and the players showed up. We hit him in

135
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 4: the back because it was a surprise for the kids

136
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 4: at the event. So I started announcing the players and

137
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 4: we saved Josh Allen for last. So, like, we've got

138
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 4: some Buffalo Bills players. You know, they're right next door

139
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 4: to Rochester, so why not bring them here for a day.

140
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,720
Speaker 4: And so the kids start to go wild and I

141
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 4: could barely even announce Josh Allen's name because it was

142
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 4: so loud at that point.

143
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 5: So I was able to get joshan out and they were.

144
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 4: Like pulled out their phones and of course you do, yeah,

145
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,919
Speaker 4: you do a Q and A with a group of kids,

146
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 4: and Josh is sitting up on a stand with us,

147
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 4: and they only wanted to ask questions to Josh And

148
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 4: it was so fun to see him interact with those kids.

149
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 5: And I know a lot of our players.

150
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 4: Are out there the entire week enjoying the opportunity to

151
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 4: be at a PGA championship that is kind of right

152
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 4: down the road from us. So when Josh was being

153
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 4: carted from the bus that we got off of to

154
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,239
Speaker 4: the event, because it was maybe like a three minute

155
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 4: golf card ride that turned into a five to ten

156
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 4: minute golf cart ride depending on how busy.

157
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 5: The area was.

158
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 4: But Josh had a hat on and a sweatshirt and

159
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 4: was kind of trying to keep his head down because

160
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 4: and it was a practice day like Tuesday. The tournament

161
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 4: had not started by Tuesday, so there weren't too many

162
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 4: people there, and so you're thinking, Okay, this shouldn't be

163
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 4: a big deal, but one it was like.

164
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 5: Mine, mine, mine, mine. Oh, Josh, there's Josh. There's Josh.

165
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 5: There's Josh. There's Josh.

166
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 4: Allen and then kids started to run after the golf cart.

167
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 4: They all had like golf balls that they wanted sign,

168
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 4: they had the flags that they wanted sign, and it

169
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 4: got to the point where we had state troopers running

170
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 4: alongside the golf cart to try to protect Josh from

171
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 4: all of these happy, excited kids who wanted autographs, which

172
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 4: I'm sure he signed a few of them. But it

173
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 4: was very interesting for me to see him out of

174
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 4: his element in the building or out of his element

175
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,199
Speaker 4: of a football game, because I mean, we get to

176
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,319
Speaker 4: see him here, we get to see him on Sundays,

177
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 4: but I haven't been at many events since he's became

178
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 4: like a big name.

179
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,079
Speaker 5: A true celebrity.

180
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 4: And this isn't this is in our backyard, so everybody

181
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 4: knows who Josh Allen is in Rochester, And it was

182
00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,119
Speaker 4: like Tiger Woods was there, basically.

183
00:08:59,200 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: It was.

184
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 4: It was a wild realization to have, like, this guy

185
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 4: is a big freaking deal now like it was. He

186
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 4: was almost bigger than the golfers there when he was

187
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 4: passing by, and everybody was looking to see who is

188
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 4: this guy on the golf cart, And once people found

189
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 4: out it was Josh Allen, people took off.

190
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's yeah, and that's not and he and look,

191
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 2: he handles that stuff great. He kind of knows what

192
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 2: comes with you know, his position, his notoriety, you know,

193
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 2: the recognizable face that he now is for the league,

194
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 2: and so I think he knows what comes with it

195
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 2: and he handles it the best that he can. But

196
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,839
Speaker 2: I'll never forget last year at training camp, he's got

197
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 2: to come off the practice field and get to us

198
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 2: on one Bill's Live to sit with me and Steve

199
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 2: for an interview during training camp, and he's like, we

200
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 2: can hear the cacophony of the crowd getting louder as

201
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 2: he's coming closer, you know, and he's trying to accommodate

202
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 2: as many people as he can on the way by.

203
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 2: But we got to get him in the chair because

204
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,839
Speaker 2: we're on the clock, you know, for the interview and everything.

205
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 2: So he gets to us, he sits down in the

206
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 2: chair with like two minutes before we come back from

207
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:10,359
Speaker 2: breaking he goes.

208
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 6: And I was just like, yeah, right.

209
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 2: I was like, you're doing a great job handling, but

210
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 2: like you're good, and he's like, yeah, I'm fine, But

211
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 2: you know, you could.

212
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 6: Tell it's a lot.

213
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 2: It's a lot that you got to and I mean

214
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 2: you think about how it's twenty four to seven football

215
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 2: during the season for these guys as soon as they

216
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 2: get back in August until the season's over, hopefully you know,

217
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,839
Speaker 2: wherever the super Bowl is being held. So there's that

218
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 2: demand and then all of this stuff off the field.

219
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 2: It's like there's no off switch when you're that guy,

220
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So it's a lot from

221
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 2: August to middle of February.

222
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 6: It's going.

223
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 4: And we had like a thirty minute meet and greet

224
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 4: afterward with the kids, and Josh participated in that and

225
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 4: did a couple interviews and then went outside to do

226
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 4: an interview with the PGA guys. And we were up

227
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 4: on up on some stairs pretty far back, and I

228
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 4: don't know what hole we were near, but we were

229
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,559
Speaker 4: near a hole. And by the time Josh was done

230
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 4: doing his interviews, there was a crowd that had formed

231
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 4: right outside of where the stairs were, and Brandon Bean

232
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 4: was there as well, and he was having people come

233
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 4: up to him asking for pictures.

234
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 5: And it's a fun event.

235
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 4: I think it's really cool that you know, it's in

236
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 4: Rochester and these guys are are able to go to

237
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 4: that the players on our team who are big golf fans,

238
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 4: because there are several of them who love the game,

239
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 4: who love to play golf in their free time and

240
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 4: get to see something like this just an hour down

241
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,839
Speaker 4: the road. And we parked at Saint John Fisher and

242
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 4: we rolled up to Saint John Fisher and I was like, home,

243
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, we're just a couple.

244
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 5: We're just a couple of months away from this.

245
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, about two months. Yeah, it's crazy. We do want

246
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 2: to go around the NFL briefly. Not a whole lot

247
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 2: going on, but we do want to kind of bring

248
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 2: up to speed on some interesting news and notes and

249
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 2: around the NFL. Brought to you by Kalida Healthy, official

250
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 2: healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills.

251
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 6: And it is expected to.

252
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 2: Be announced shortly that at the NFL owners meetings later

253
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 2: this month that they will announce the twenty twenty six

254
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, which is Super Bowl sixty, is going to

255
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 2: be awarded to Levi's Stadium in San Francisco. So there

256
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 2: have been discussions around them being cemented as the venue

257
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:38,599
Speaker 2: for Super Bowl sixty. I saw the Sports Business Journal.

258
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 6: Had a write up on it.

259
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 2: There's an issue with finding a Super Bowl venue in

260
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 2: part because that is the same year that the US,

261
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 2: along with Mexico and Canada, is going to host.

262
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 6: The World Cup.

263
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 2: So there are a lot of other venues that are

264
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 2: in the running to host for the World Cup, and

265
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 2: they want to prep for that, and so they're actually bypassing,

266
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 2: you know, saying yes, yes, we want to be considered

267
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 2: for the Super Bowl, which is like rare, but the

268
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 2: World Cup is that big. So it sounds like San

269
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 2: Fran's going to be awarded that because they've been in

270
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 2: from the jump.

271
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 6: My question, Maddie is.

272
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,679
Speaker 2: Middle of February and San Fran could be a little

273
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 2: dicey weather.

274
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 4: So when I worked for Stanford, the team that I

275
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 4: worked for was what was it twenty twenty nineteen. It

276
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 4: was in twenty nineteen. We played in a bowl game.

277
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 4: It was the Foster Farms Bowl, I want to say.

278
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 4: We played against Maryland and the game was in San

279
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 4: Francisco and Levi Stadium. So this game would have been

280
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 4: let's say January at some point, and a December January

281
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 4: was this bowl game. It was so freaking cold in

282
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 4: that stadium. It was so windy. You talk about the

283
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 4: wind in Buffalo, it was just as windy, maybe even.

284
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 5: Windier that night for that game.

285
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,839
Speaker 4: I did not bring enough layers because I was kind

286
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 4: of new to the area. It was my first year

287
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 4: in California and I lived in Palo Alto and the

288
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 4: weather in Palo Alto is warmer than it is in

289
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 4: San Francisco. And you get to San Francisco and you

290
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 4: are completely right, the weather.

291
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 6: Could be kind of damp.

292
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 4: They're pretty damp, and when the sun goes down, I mean,

293
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 4: you don't get humidity there, so when the sun goes down,

294
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 4: it gets really cold in that area. I mean it's

295
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 4: in Santa Clara, not really San Francisco, but in Santa

296
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 4: Clara you still get that cold, damp weather that San

297
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 4: Francisco gets a lot. So yeah, I would say weather

298
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 4: in February.

299
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,479
Speaker 5: So this is what it's You could get pretty cold.

300
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 2: So average temperatures in February and Santa Clara, which is

301
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 2: where the stadium is located and where the Niners play,

302
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 2: sixty three is the average high in February, and forty

303
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 2: five is the average low. That doesn't sound terrible by

304
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 2: our standards here in Western New York. That's unheard of

305
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 2: in February, but you know, it's a six thirty PM

306
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 2: game usually I guess that would be three point thirty

307
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 2: West Coast time, so okay, middle of the day, so

308
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 2: it's at the warmest time of the day conceivably for

309
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 2: the fans and the players. So maybe it's low to

310
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 2: mid sixties at kickoff, and then it's probably down in

311
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 2: the mid forties by the end of the night. I'm

312
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 2: just worried about the rain, Like, isn't that the wet

313
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 2: season out there?

314
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 4: Like, yeah, you can't get rain out there at that time.

315
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 4: The other thing that forty five sure feels warm to

316
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 4: us in February because we don't get those temperatures in

317
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 4: February often. But forty five, I feel like, at least

318
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 4: this is for myself when I go somewhere else and

319
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 4: I experience maybe it's not as cold as here, but

320
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 4: a forty five in California could feel like a thirty

321
00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 4: degree weather day.

322
00:15:58,480 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 5: Here to me.

323
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 4: Sometimes I've feel like when I go somewhere that's supposed

324
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 4: to be warm and it's actually not warm, it feels

325
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 4: even Yes, yeah, I get it.

326
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 2: So yeah, I was surprised by that, only because you know,

327
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 2: when they had the Super Bowl in Dallas, they had

328
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: that terrible ice storm. I mean, it didn't affect the

329
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 2: game because you know, they can close the roof and everything,

330
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 2: but yeah, I was wondering if they would ever even

331
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 2: venture near a city that even had the threat of

332
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 2: damp or cold weather because they wanted to be they

333
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 2: wanted to be palatable to the fans. Also, I mean,

334
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 2: people are not skipping the Super Bowl if it's forty degrees.

335
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 2: But I just thought that they would kind of gravitate

336
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 2: more towards the guaranteed warm weather cities in light of

337
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: how some of the previous Super Bowls and some questionable

338
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 2: climates went in the middle of February. But it looks

339
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 2: like Santa Clara will get Super Bowl twenty six. Incidentally,

340
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 2: super Bowl next year or this coming season will be

341
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 2: in Las Vegas at Allegiance Stadium, which is a dome,

342
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 2: so no worries about whether or there whatsoever. Speaking of

343
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 2: the Raiders, Davante Adams, as we told you earlier this week,

344
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 2: expressed some doubt and concern about the direction of the

345
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 2: team and the offense. Hard to discern whether he's mad

346
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 2: that Derek Carr after he via trade went to the

347
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 2: Raiders last year to be reunited with his former college

348
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 2: quarterback Derek Carr played together at Fresno State, is essentially

349
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 2: jettisoned and finds his way out of there and lands

350
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 2: in New Orleans, and now DeVante Adams has Jimmy Garoppolo

351
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 2: as his quarterback. I don't know if it's a quarterback

352
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:46,160
Speaker 2: issue an offensive system issue, but DeVante Adams cleverly gets

353
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,439
Speaker 2: comment out there that he's not thrilled with the direction

354
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 2: of the franchise. So the next logical question is, well,

355
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 2: do the Raiders do something to move him via a trade.

356
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 2: The problem is, you're this late in the game. I

357
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 2: don't know if a trade happens now, but I'll tell you, man,

358
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 2: we get to October, you know, right before the trade deadline,

359
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 2: somebody's interested. I think I think the phone's going to

360
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 2: ring and Dave's Eigler's off as the GM for the Raiders.

361
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 2: Because guy only is six million in base salary by

362
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 2: that time, it's going to be pro rated depending on

363
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 2: how many weeks have gone by. So and he's only

364
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,919
Speaker 2: turning thirty one this year and he's still probably one

365
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:31,360
Speaker 2: of the five best receivers in football.

366
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 5: That bight me.

367
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 4: That might be more attractive to a team who's interested

368
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 4: in getting a wide receiver and can hang on until

369
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 4: October to pick up a salary like that. I mean

370
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:48,880
Speaker 4: that that seems more enticing than the d Hop situation,

371
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 4: which his money's ridiculous and we're not sure how that's

372
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 4: gonna unfold, if they're gonna cut him or not. But

373
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 4: if you have a team that's good enough to hold

374
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 4: on till October and can make it work financially, sounds good.

375
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 2: The bigger problem is the Raiders making it work financial yeah,

376
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 2: because their dead cap hit is steep, Like if they

377
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 2: trade him now, it's thirty one million. If they trade

378
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 2: him even next year, it's twenty three and a half.

379
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 2: And I don't know what their cap situation is off

380
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 2: the top of my head, but that's not something you

381
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 2: want to eat to move him off your roster and

382
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 2: arguably make yourself worse, even if you can get a

383
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 2: high draft pick coming back. That would be pretty tough

384
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 2: for the Raiders to stomach, not to mention, you're taking

385
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 2: your number one weapon out of your passing game.

386
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 6: So I don't know, maybe they think.

387
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 2: Differently if the season's already gone up in flames by

388
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 2: week six. I suppose maybe they could reconsider and maybe

389
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 2: they talked to DeVante Adams about reworking his contract to

390
00:19:56,040 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 2: make his dead cap figure more palatable. But right now,

391
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,159
Speaker 2: at least the reports from the athletic who've been on

392
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 2: this story from the jump, is that they're not considering

393
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 2: it right now. They get off to a rough start

394
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,679
Speaker 2: and the season goes up in flames, though, could be

395
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 2: a trade deadline move, which would be very interesting because

396
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 2: that guy would be a hot commodity.

397
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 6: I think they could command.

398
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 2: Even at age thirty one, I think they could get

399
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 2: a two, or maybe even a one or a two

400
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 2: that could become a one based on Adams production for him,

401
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 2: because he's, you know, to me, he's still a top

402
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 2: five guy in this league at the position. He just

403
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 2: unfortunately was playing with a lesser quarterback last year and

404
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 2: maybe playing with an even lesser quarterback this year.

405
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 4: So and the Bills get to draw that team in

406
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,479
Speaker 4: Week two and ale you're looking at the schedule and thinking,

407
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 4: you know, this is a game that's probably too early

408
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 4: to tell on the Raiders. They're going to be a

409
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 4: team who with the newness of the quarterback and some

410
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 4: other things. You're gonna need a few weeks at least

411
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 4: to be able to put it all together. Playing a

412
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 4: team like the Bills in week two when you're a

413
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 4: team that's trying to figure things out, isn't an easy

414
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 4: feat at all.

415
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 2: Not to mention the ten am kickoff time for your players,

416
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 2: you know, being used to West Coast time, coming east

417
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 2: for a one o'clock game, that's ten am for you.

418
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 2: That's always a tough road to hoo. Also, as history

419
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,160
Speaker 2: has shown, it is OBL Friday fan mail bag Day,

420
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 2: So any and all questions that you might have about

421
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 2: the team, the division, the league at large, salary cap,

422
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 2: draft choices, whatever the heck it is. Maybe it's about

423
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 2: OTA's next week, which begin in earnest next week. So

424
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,000

Speaker 2: for us, Maddy and I'll do our best to answer those.

432
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 2: And we're also wrapping up our run around the AFC

433
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 2: East today. We had the Patriots on Wednesday, Dolphins yesterday,

434
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 2: and we will dive into the Jets. Now that all

435
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 2: of the or the bulk of the off season roster

436
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 2: construction is done, we want to kind of get a

437
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 2: better look at the Jets. We will have Jets dot

438
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,959
Speaker 2: Com reporter Eric Allen helping us out in the second

439
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 2: hour of the show. But between now and then, the

440
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 2: phone lines are open for your calls and questions on

441
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 2: an obl Friday fanmail bag, and we'll answer those as

442
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 2: soon as they come in, and then we'll dive into

443
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 2: the Jets a little bit more in hour number two.

444
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,639
Speaker 2: And I don't know if you saw it, Maddie, but

445
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 2: I know I mentioned it to you before we came

446
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 2: on the air. The Jets had their in house program.

447
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 2: It's kind of like their version of Embedded or Beyond

448
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 2: Blue and Red that we have.

449
00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 6: On Boffalo bills dot Com.

450
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 2: And while they did touch on other things, understandably, the

451
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,360
Speaker 2: main focus was Aaron Rodgers. And you know, they sat

452
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 2: him in a chair and did an interview, but they

453
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 2: only played little clips of it. They had footage of

454
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,199
Speaker 2: his arrival and his press conference after the trade was

455
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 2: finally consummated. But the first half of the thing was

456
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 2: about some of the offseason moves and then is the

457
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 2: Rogers thing gonna happen? It was just round and round

458
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,439
Speaker 2: and round and round. And then they basically are selling

459
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,400
Speaker 2: all they can sell right now, which is what Rogers

460
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 2: has done and bringing that to the Jets. And believe me,

461
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,959
Speaker 2: right now, that's enough because Jets fans are gaga over this.

462
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 2: Having some high school buddies who are Jets fans. Yeah,

463
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 2: they're giddy right now.

464
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 4: So franchise altering addition to their roster.

465
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,120
Speaker 2: Been a minute since they had a quarterback worth.

466
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 5: Of darn, it has been a minute.

467
00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,120
Speaker 4: Oh gosh, we get to draw him twice start the

468
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 4: season against the Jets.

469
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 2: I actually do think, and I know we didn't really

470
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 2: get a chance to dive into this when you and

471
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 2: I were doing the schedule release special.

472
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 6: I think it's good you get him early.

473
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 2: I like that too, because they probably, despite their best efforts,

474
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,160
Speaker 2: won't have all of their ducks in a row.

475
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 6: I don't know, to be humming, you know what I mean.

476
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't remember if it was me and Steve

477
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:26,159
Speaker 4: or you and I. I think it was me and

478
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 4: Steve when we had Judy Bautista on a couple weeks ago.

479
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 4: So I asked her, I was like, in your opinion,

480
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,640
Speaker 4: you've been covering the stories since the trade rumors started,

481
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 4: and you've really been around that team for the last

482
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 4: few weeks doing reports on NFL network and writing up stories.

483
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 4: Is there gonna be a learning curve at all for

484
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 4: Rogers and this team? Is it gonna take any time?

485
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 4: Or are they just ready, set go and ready from

486
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,439
Speaker 4: the jump. And she kind of answered the question of like,

487
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 4: there may be a little bit of time, but this

488
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 4: is a team who believes they are ready from the jump.

489
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 5: Do you believe that?

490
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 6: I think Rogers I.

491
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 4: Think about it from a Tom Brady standpoint, because we've

492
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 4: seen Tom Brady do that. It's a different team, it's

493
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 4: a different system, it's a different head coach.

494
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 5: But where do you I.

495
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 2: Think Rogers will be fine because he's coming to a

496
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 2: system that he knows already like the back of his hand.

497
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,159
Speaker 2: He and Hackut have worked together before, so there's a

498
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 2: there's a working relationship there that has already worked in

499
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 2: the past. So that much is set as the foundation.

500
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 2: I think the bigger question lies in everybody else around him,

501
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 2: whether it's the guy's calling, you know, the center call

502
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 2: on the protection scheme. Is that going to be the

503
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,879
Speaker 2: rookie Joe Tipman. Are they going to put the veteran

504
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,400
Speaker 2: Conter McGovern in there? What happens with that position that's

505
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 2: very important, and that's a relationship with Rogers that has to,

506
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 2: you know, be built. And then you're still retooling that

507
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,199
Speaker 2: offensive line. Are you going to have thirty eight year

508
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 2: old Dayne Brown at left tackle or do you have

509
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 2: somebody that shows better in training camp? So putting that

510
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 2: line together is part two, and then part three is

511
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,640
Speaker 2: getting everybody on the same page and executing that offense

512
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 2: as a well oiled machine. I don't think that just

513
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 2: happens when it's a new system.

514
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 6: For just about everybody else else.

515
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 2: With the exception of Aaron Rodgers, Alan Lazard and Randall Copp,

516
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 2: those are the only three guys that know that offense

517
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 2: like the back of their hand, having been in it before.

518
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,400
Speaker 2: Everybody else is learning from scratch. Now, could they put

519
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 2: it all together and look great in week one, sure,

520
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 2: but I'm not betting on it. They do not have

521
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,880
Speaker 2: the offensive continuity edge that I think the Bills will

522
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 2: go into that game with So from that standpoint, I

523
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 2: think it is advantageous.

524
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 6: Look, if you're going to.

525
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 2: Play them on the road in a prime time environment

526
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 2: where the crowd's going to be in a froth and

527
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 2: expectations are going to be as high as they've been

528
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:54,160
Speaker 2: in ten years for the Jets, play them early when

529
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 2: maybe they don't have everything buttoned up and air tight,

530
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 2: and hopefully you can take advantage.

531
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it really starts with that offensive line,

532
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 4: the questions along the offensive line, because it wasn't great

533
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 4: last year, and Mackai Beckton has been.

534
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 6: A question mark problem.

535
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, injuries were a problem, and in his status and

536
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,120
Speaker 4: where he's playing has been a question since he really

537
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 4: got drafted to that team. I know he's a mountain

538
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,160
Speaker 4: of a man, but he hasn't been able to put

539
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 4: really a full season together.

540
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 5: So what is that going to look like for him?

541
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 4: And then they draft a couple offensive linemen, like you said,

542
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,640
Speaker 4: and add some through free agency. But if you don't

543
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 4: have an offensive line, if you can't put it together,

544
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 4: if it's not gonna work communication wise or health wise.

545
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 4: This is not a mobile quarterback. And Josh Allen, who

546
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,399
Speaker 4: can just get outside of the pocket when he needs to.

547
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,239
Speaker 4: I know Aaron Rodgers does have a little bit of

548
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,679
Speaker 4: that in him, but he is a quarterback who's getting older.

549
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean it's right, he's not as mobile

550
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 2: as he once was. I think he can still get

551
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 2: around enough to be effective and make an extend play

552
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 2: to make them. But yeah, there are a lot of

553
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 2: question marks there that have to be fit together, and

554
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,120
Speaker 2: you know, maybe it all comes together beautifully without any

555
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:13,159
Speaker 2: adversity whatsoever. But I'm of the belief, just based on

556
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,199
Speaker 2: having seen these kinds of changes before, that it's not

557
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,120
Speaker 2: all buttoned up and airtight. Despite a team's best efforts

558
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 2: in week one, two, or even three, sometimes you don't

559
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,880
Speaker 2: really get to week six in a new offense until

560
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 2: you really feel like you got your feet under you.

561
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,199
Speaker 2: You know everything. There are no surprises, there are no

562
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 2: instances of miscommunication where one person's thinking one thing, another person's.

563
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 6: Thinking another thing.

564
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 2: And we saw Nate Hackett go through that in Denver

565
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 2: with a very talented offense and approven super Bowl winning

566
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 2: quarterback there, and it took them forever to put it together,

567
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 2: and it never got quite right, and it costs Nate

568
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 2: Hackett his job. So if you want an example of

569
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 2: it not fitting together right away, look no further than

570
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos last year. Russell Wilson looked like a

571
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 2: shell of himself. He has more than capable receivers. I

572
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 2: mean a lot of teams in this league would be

573
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 2: envious of the receiver talent that the Broncos have with

574
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 2: kJ Hamler and Courtland Sutton and Jerry Judy.

575
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 6: I mean, that's a heck of a trio there.

576
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 2: And they even got other guys, Tim Patrick and a

577
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 2: couple other players that are good role players for them

578
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 2: in the passing game, and it just did not work

579
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 2: at all, and they had a bad injury. Javonte Williams

580
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 2: tears his ACL early in the year. He was going

581
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 2: to be kind of their meal ticket back and that

582
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 2: went up in flames.

583
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 6: With his ACL injury.

584
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 2: So you know, they were extenuating circumstances, but it doesn't

585
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 2: always work. I'm just saying, so, look, I'd be hard

586
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 2: pressed to have a problem with that if it happened

587
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 2: to the Jets.

588
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 6: Just saying we got to take a break here.

Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm ready for the weekend.

613
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 8: Man Oa good. I wanted to ask you something this

614
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 8: fan mail bag. Bring it up the other day. This

615
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 8: past weekend. We found out about that punter last year

616
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,719
Speaker 8: that was accused of that rape and sexual assault in California.

617
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 8: My camp pronounce his name, Matt Lutenza, the one that's bosed,

618
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 8: I can't pronounce. Yeah, now they found out he left

619
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 8: the party or left it two hours before the girl

620
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 8: was actually assaulted. What would they do? I mean, is

621
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 8: even a lawsuit for defamation because I mean they did

622
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 8: make him look like a deviate even if he wasn't.

623
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 8: And they're gonna try and get back in the league

624
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 8: because that guy is supposed to. When they said about

625
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 8: his punts last year, those were like Ray guy punts.

626
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 8: He's seventy yard punts. That's like a Ray Guy in

627
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 8: his prime with the Raiders punt. When he tried to

628
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 8: get back in and they find out he really didn't

629
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 8: hurt that girl or you hear about it so far?

630
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 8: Not so far.

631
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a it's a tricky situation, Kevin.

632
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 2: I think there are still civil suits pending if I'm

633
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,560
Speaker 2: not mistaken. So I think that the league at large,

634
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,479
Speaker 2: I'm not even gonna put the bills in the equation

635
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 2: because they have Sam Martin here under contract, the veteran

636
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 2: punter who they signed last year. After that all went

637
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 2: down and then they re signed him this offseason, so

638
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 2: they're kind of set at the position, and not for nothing.

639
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 2: Sam Martin had a good season here last year. I

640
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 2: don't know how the rest of the league is going

641
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 2: to feel about that. As I said, I still think

642
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 2: there are civil suits pending with him. I would ask,

643
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 2: and this is just a guess on my part, I

644
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 2: would guess that most teams would wait until his legal

645
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 2: handlings are over and done with in totality, and then

646
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 2: maybe if someone feels the need to improve or upgrade

647
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 2: their roster at that position, then maybe they look into it.

648
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 2: It's also possible that there are NFL clubs out there

649
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 2: that might say, well, let's see him play in the

650
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 2: XFL or the USFL next year and see how he does.

651
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 2: And then if it's evident that he still has all

652
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 2: the talent that many of them probably thought he did well,

653
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 2: then maybe the opportunity does come up for him. But

654
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 2: really really hard to kind of ascertain that right now.

655
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would say, I'm sure he wants to get

656
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 4: back into the NFL and back into football, but not

657
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 4: until all of that.

658
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 5: Is probably.

659
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 4: Figured out, worked whatever you want to say. Yeah, that

660
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 4: teams would then start to make contact with him, right,

661
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 4: You know, the.

662
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 2: Whole thing is unfortunate all the way around for all

663
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 2: the parties involved, as we well know, because even though

664
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 2: Matt Eriza was exonerated in the criminal portions of that case,

665
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 2: it doesn't change the fact about what the victim in

666
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 2: this case had to go through, no matter how much

667
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 2: was definitively proven and how much wasn't with respect to

668
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 2: the allegation. So it's still not something anybody, you know,

669
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 2: me having a daughter myself, it's not something anybody would want,

670
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,800
Speaker 2: you know, anyone to have to go through, family, victim,

671
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 2: all parties involved. So the whole thing is just flat

672
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 2: out unfortunate that it even took place. But yeah, how

673
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 2: it's gonna be how NFL teams are going to view it.

674
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 6: Your guess, honestly is as good as mine.

675
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 2: So that I mean, that's kind of where it is

676
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 2: and where it starts and where it ends at least

677
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 2: for right now, I think, until all his legal handlings

678
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 2: are done and over with, let's go to the Friday

679
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 2: fan mail bag and leading us off today there is

680
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 2: Barkert who says, there has been little talk about Kyle Allen,

681
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 2: and with good reason. Nobody wants to see him play

682
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 2: unless it's a blowout scenario. But is he a true

683
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,399
Speaker 2: backup to Josh or did we just bring in another

684
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,319
Speaker 2: one of Josh's best buds for the QB room? In

685
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 2: other words, is the season a wash if Josh goes down?

686
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 2: I know two years ago everybody was very encouraged having

687
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 2: or at least had maybe a little bit more or

688
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 2: peace of mind having Mitchell Trubisky as the backup. They

689
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:07,439
Speaker 2: had a veteran in case Keenum as a backup last year,

690
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 2: and while I don't think he brought the same athletic

691
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 2: traits to the table that Mitchell Trubisky did as a

692
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 2: younger player, I think they felt, well, at least it's

693
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,319
Speaker 2: a guy that's been there and done that and can

694
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 2: be productive. As far as Kyle Allen's concerned, he's in

695
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 2: the one year that he was a full time starter

696
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 2: with Carolina back in twenty nineteen. He started twelve games.

697
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 2: He went five and seven and completed sixty two percent

698
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 2: of his passes, seventeen touchdowns sixteen picks as a second

699
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 2: year player. He's since played for Washington and Houston, but

700
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 2: he's been a backup, a spot starter. If you Will,

701
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:54,560
Speaker 2: so you know his overall records seven and twelve. Now,

702
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 2: granted he's not playing for the best teams in the league.

703
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,280
Speaker 2: You know, he was playing for Carolina on a down turn,

704
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 2: you know, after Cam was gone, and he was playing

705
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 2: in Washington when they had already absolved themselves of Kirk

706
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 2: Cousins and really didn't have a true number one QB.

707
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 2: Dwayne Haskins was there, then he wasn't, and you know

708
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 2: that whole mess. And then he was in Houston last

709
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 2: year as the backup to their starter, who was their

710
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:22,399
Speaker 2: former fourth round pick.

711
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 6: So I think it's I think in this scenario, with.

712
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 2: This roster, I think you could expect better production out

713
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 2: of Kyle Allen if, in fact, he is thrust into

714
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 2: the lineup and has to play God forbid for an injury.

715
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 2: Josh So, No, I don't think he's a throwaway, Bud.

716
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 2: I think it's a guy that has game. And what

717
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 2: is he twenty seven years old, So I think he

718
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:55,359
Speaker 2: has something to offer in the way of talent and quarterbacking.

719
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:58,960
Speaker 2: And I think he's played enough to convince this coaching

720
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 2: staff and the personnel department that he has something to

721
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 2: offer and can carry you through a stretch if Josh

722
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 2: Scott forbid est of miss a.

723
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:06,799
Speaker 6: Game or two.

724
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's played in twenty three games, started in nineteen.

725
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 4: I mean this coaching staff and this scouting department, really

726
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 4: the scouting department, they they wouldn't bring somebody onto the

727
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 4: team to back up Josh Allen just because it's one

728
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 4: of Josh's best friends. Josh has a lot of close

729
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 4: friends in this league who are quarterbacks.

730
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 5: Because he gets to.

731
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,479
Speaker 4: Train with all these guys in the offseason and gets

732
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 4: to develop relationships with them. That doesn't mean it's a

733
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 4: reason to bring him in and back up Josh Allen.

734
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 4: Brandon Bean is way smarter than that, and so is

735
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 4: the scouting department. So they see something in him and

736
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 4: they think that he's a good option in this offense

737
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 4: to back up Josh Allen if that has to happen

738
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 4: this season. Hopefully it doesn't. Hopefully we have a healthy

739
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:56,680
Speaker 4: Josh Allen through the entire year. But if not, Kyle's

740
00:37:56,719 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 4: going to be that option. And they brought him here

741
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,359
Speaker 4: and he's on the team because they think that he

742
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 4: can he can help the team if need be.

743
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we're all hoping he doesn't play. I mean,

744
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 2: unless you know it's forty to nothing and then you

745
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:15,360
Speaker 2: know he can play all he wants.

746
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 6: That's fine by me.

747
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 2: But I think with the with the nature of the

748
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 2: Bill's schedule this year, which is tough, it's steep by

749
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:29,280
Speaker 2: new analytics accounts and by last year opponent winning percentage accounts. It's,

750
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:31,400
Speaker 2: you know, one of the toughest schedules in the league,

751
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 2: so blowouts might be hard to come by. Will certainly

752
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 2: take him if they surface, and then maybe get a

753
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:38,800
Speaker 2: look at Kyle Allen.

754
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,320
Speaker 6: We don't want to get a look at Kyle Allen

755
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 6: the other way. With all due respect to Kyle himself.

756
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 2: Let's go back to the mail bag and we've got

757
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:51,319
Speaker 2: from Bill's news consolidated. Would you say a rookie middle

758
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,800
Speaker 2: linebacker in twenty twenty three is in a better position

759
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 2: to succeed than the year rookie Tremaine Edmonds started, I

760
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 2: would say yes, because the roster is stronger than it

761
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 2: was in twenty eighteen.

762
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 6: Yes, I would say that.

763
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:13,319
Speaker 2: I think they're deeper upfront on the defensive line. The secondary,

764
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,399
Speaker 2: it's a little older, but I think it's still more

765
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 2: than capable. And you've got a young ascending player in

766
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 2: Kyie elam to go with proven veterans, and you have

767
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 2: an all Pro linebacker lined up next to you in

768
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 2: Matt Milano.

769
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 6: So I would say, if a rookie is.

770
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 2: Getting dropped into that equation, yes, it is unquestionably a

771
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 2: better situation than the one Tremaine Edmonds walked in. Yeah.

772
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, because you've got Matt Milano right

773
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,880
Speaker 4: next to you. That's why it's a better deal and

774
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 4: a better situation. A Matt Milano who's been on the

775
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 4: team for several years now. This is not a rookie

776
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,279
Speaker 4: Matt Milano anymore. This is a Matt Milano who's on

777
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,919
Speaker 4: to his second contract with this team, and a Matt

778
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 4: Milano who's an All Pro and who is recognized by

779
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 4: a lot of other teams in the NFL that they

780
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:57,000
Speaker 4: have to scheme against because of the type of linebacker

781
00:39:57,040 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 4: that he is. I'm really looking forward to seeing who

782
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 4: is going to be that player that steps in next

783
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 4: to Matt Mlano this season and defense that's going to

784
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 4: be called by Sean McDermott.

785
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think it's going to be one

786
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 2: of the most hotly contested position battles of training camp,

787
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 2: And I'm very curious to see if that pool of

788
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 2: candidates for the starting middle linebacker job gets whittled down

789
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,239
Speaker 2: before we even get to camp, Like maybe in the

790
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 2: spring it's four by the time you get to training camp,

791
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:35,760
Speaker 2: is it down to three? So, because the ultimate issue

792
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:39,040
Speaker 2: that you have there is you can only go so

793
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 2: far into training camp with a competition before you have

794
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 2: to give the bulk of the reps to the guy

795
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,479
Speaker 2: that you believe is worthy of being the starter, because

796
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 2: you have to get them ready for the regular season

797
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 2: with all the ten guys.

798
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:49,960
Speaker 6: That are going to be around them in the starting unit.

799
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 2: If you're still rotating people through and a guy's getting

800
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:54,279
Speaker 2: a third of the reps he would normally get to

801
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 2: ready for a season, and he's calling your defense, that's

802
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 2: too important a role to to wait on or to say, well,

803
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:05,280
Speaker 2: I need another week of practices to decide who's the starter,

804
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,359
Speaker 2: Like you got to make that call, and probably make

805
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 2: it sooner rather than later. It'll be very interesting to

806
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,319
Speaker 2: see when the drop dead date is to not only

807
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:18,320
Speaker 2: whittle that pool down, but to nail down this guy's

808
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,840
Speaker 2: the starter. And maybe it's before you even get to

809
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,880
Speaker 2: the second preseason game. You know, by the time that

810
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 2: first preseason game is said and done, we might be

811
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 2: already looking at the starting middle linebacker for this group.

812
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 2: The other position I think that's going to be hotly

813
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 2: contested is that right guard spot. Oh yeah, Osyrus Torrance,

814
00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 2: Ryan Bates.

815
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:36,840
Speaker 6: David Edwards.

816
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,239
Speaker 2: That's going to be a battle too, for sure, And

817
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,400
Speaker 2: I think the offensive line only gets better because of it.

818
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 2: They always say competition raises the level of everybody that

819
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 2: makes the team better as a whole. We got to

820
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 2: take a break here when we come back. More of

821

00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 2: We all know about Rogers, but what the heck else

826
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 2: have they done to try to make themselves better and

827
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:11,799
Speaker 2: pull closer to the division champion Bills. We'll tackle that

828
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:16,399

Speaker 2: we are taking your questions We've been sitting here on

834
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:30,040
Speaker 2: the tweet sheet as it is OBL Friday fan mail bag.

835
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:31,719
Speaker 2: So if you have a question you want to hop

Speaker 2: on the phone lines, you can do that at eight

837
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 2: o three zero five fifty one eight eight eight five

838
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 2: fifty two five point fifty. But in the meantime, we

839
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 2: wanted to see what Tiffany had to offer. She says,

840
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 2: who are you rooting for to make the final roster?

841
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,279
Speaker 2: I'm pulling for Shane Ray.

842
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 6: Shane Ray would be.

843
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 2: An unbelievable success story, knowing he hasn't played NFL football

844
00:42:56,640 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 2: since I think it was twenty nineteen, so think about that.

845
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 2: You're talking pre pandemic. So yeah, I mean that would

846
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 2: be a heck of a success story or reclamation story,

847
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,240
Speaker 2: you know, status redeemed as an NFL player.

848
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:14,320
Speaker 6: That would be something.

849
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 2: And he's got an uphill battle with all the talent

850
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 2: that the Bills have at defensive end, not the least

851
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:20,759
Speaker 2: of which is a.

852
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 6: Lot of their high draft choices. Do you have a

853
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:25,560
Speaker 6: name in mind, like.

854
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:27,680
Speaker 4: Hey, I'm rooting for this guy, and I mean I

855
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 4: would like to see Shane Ray make the roster two.

856
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,440
Speaker 4: But that's because we went to college together and I

857
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 4: think he graduated a year after me, but he played

858
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 4: on the same team with Mitch Morse for a few years.

859
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,759
Speaker 4: So those are a couple of guys that I got

860
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 4: to be around when they were college players. And Shane

861
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 4: Ray was incredible for MISSOO. They had a wonderful defensive

862
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,480
Speaker 4: line when I was there. A lot of those guys

863
00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 4: went on to the NFL. There's not too many of

864
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,720
Speaker 4: them left, but he had eight sacks in his second

865
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,400
Speaker 4: year in the NFL in twenty sixteen with the Broncos,

866
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 4: So I mean he had a pretty active career, at

867
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 4: least in his first couple of years. I know, injuries

868
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 4: kind of stalled that a little bit. And then he

869
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:11,360
Speaker 4: played for the Toronto Argonauts in what was it, twenty

870
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 4: twenty and twenty twenty one, So.

871
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm kind of pulling for people.

872
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 2: I'm pulling for Alec Anderson, the offensive lineman who was

873
00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:21,359
Speaker 2: on the practice squad here last year. He was an

874
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:22,120
Speaker 2: undrafted You.

875
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:24,320
Speaker 5: You and Steve love alexanders a lot.

876
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,319
Speaker 2: I watched him in training camp last year and I thought.

877
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:29,720
Speaker 6: His feet were really good.

878
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:34,319
Speaker 2: I think he has position versatility, and I think he's

879
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 2: got a chance to make the roster this year after

880
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,120
Speaker 2: serving all of last season on the practice squad. So

881
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 2: and I think he's a guy that's kind.

882
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:44,360
Speaker 6: Of like Ryan Bates.

883
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,360
Speaker 2: I think you could line him up at guard, you

884
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:50,800
Speaker 2: could line him up at tackle. He played tackle at UCLA,

885
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 2: so I think there's some position for versatility there that's

886
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 2: very attractive. So I think if he puts together a

887
00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,279
Speaker 2: good camp and a good preseason, I think he could

888
00:44:59,320 --> 00:44:59,920
Speaker 2: make the rosters.

889
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 6: So that's that's the guy that I'm rooting for.

890
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 4: Another guy that I'm rooting for. And when I think

891
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,200
Speaker 4: of players that I want to make the roster and

892
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 4: guys who could be some of the last people in

893
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,919
Speaker 4: or some of the first people out, it's guys who

894
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,120
Speaker 4: have been around here for a few years, on and

895
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:16,960
Speaker 4: off of the practice squad or on and off of

896
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:20,719
Speaker 4: the roster with injuries and things like that. And we

897
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 4: get to know a lot of those guys pretty well.

898
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:26,719
Speaker 4: They're usually more than happy to do media because they

899
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 4: want to get their name out there. They want to

900
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,600
Speaker 4: start building their own brand. And one of those players

901
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,400
Speaker 4: who I have loved being around and I think it

902
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 4: is just a great guy and can play football as well.

903
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,360
Speaker 4: But it'll be interesting to see what happens with this

904
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 4: position group, because we drafted a tight end is quin Morris, Okay.

905
00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think I think he's got a

906
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 2: good shot to be back on the roster as the

907
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 2: third tight end behind Knox and Kincaid, So I would

908
00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 2: say his odds are good. I mean, you do have

909
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 2: other competition, you know, a practice squad guy and Zach

910
00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:01,840
Speaker 2: Davidson who's a taller, longer player. Yeah, so he'll be

911
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:04,439
Speaker 2: in the mix. He was on the practice squad last year.

912
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 2: And there are other guys they'll have on the roster too,

913
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 2: I imagine.

914
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,440
Speaker 4: Before and I more think about the tight end position

915
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,720
Speaker 4: as a position that could get cut by one guy

916
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 4: because of the fact that they may want to keep

917
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:20,160
Speaker 4: other players in other position groups that you know, maybe

918
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 4: they want to keep an extra wide receiver this year,

919
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,240
Speaker 4: maybe they don't. They want to keep a big defensive

920
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 4: line group, or an extra offensive lineman, yeah, or an

921
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:30,359
Speaker 4: extra running back because they do have a stable right now,

922
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 4: and all those guys I think that are on the

923
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 4: roster could make this squad and could make this team.

924
00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 4: So I think that'll be one thing that will be

925
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 4: very intriguing interesting to see is how they how they

926
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:46,240
Speaker 4: get to that final number, and within that final number,

927
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 4: what it looks like for each position groups.

928
00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:51,320
Speaker 2: Let's go back to the phones and see what you

929
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 2: have there. We go to Doc in Williamsville. What do

930
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:54,279
Speaker 2: you got for us, Doc?

931
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 7: Well, I'm a comment about Aaron Rodgers.

932
00:46:57,719 --> 00:46:58,080
Speaker 6: Okay.

933
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 7: I think he's a coach killer. He is the Lebron

934
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:03,840
Speaker 7: James of the National Football League.

935
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 6: Okay?

936
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:08,120
Speaker 2: And what about his makeup convinces you of that?

937
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 7: Well, because he has trouble following orders, supposedly the game plan,

938
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,840
Speaker 7: I think he wants more input into it, and I

939
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,279
Speaker 7: think with his diminishing skills, he's going to have a

940
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 7: tough time finished the season with the Jets. Okay, because

941
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,840
Speaker 7: I don't think the Jets are anywhere near ready to

942
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,760
Speaker 7: protect him. And we are the champions of the East.

943
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,360
Speaker 7: We will be till the end of the season until

944
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:38,719
Speaker 7: someone defeats us and the sky who's following mantra is

945
00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:41,839
Speaker 7: running thin. Brownie, Thanks for taking my call.

946
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 2: Sure, sure, yeah, I mean I don't know if you

947
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:47,680
Speaker 2: meant I was thinking that. I'm not thinking this guy

948
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:53,480
Speaker 2: is falling. I think that Rogers obviously booies the hopes

949
00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 2: of everybody that roots for the Jets, and I get it,

950
00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 2: but Doc does have somewhat of a point. There is

951
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:03,919
Speaker 2: a track record of Rogers rubbing people the wrong way

952
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:07,720
Speaker 2: over the course of his career. You know, he's saying

953
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:11,360
Speaker 2: coach killer and Mike McCarthy is the coach that I

954
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:14,680
Speaker 2: think he's probably would use as an example in that

955
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 2: because those two guys work together for the better part

956
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:20,200
Speaker 2: of eight or nine seasons. They won one Super Bowl,

957
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:23,719
Speaker 2: went to some playoffs, but I think most people would

958
00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:29,240
Speaker 2: say over their full tenure together, they probably underachieved. Although

959
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:30,880
Speaker 2: that's hard to do when you've won a super Bowl,

960
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 2: but I think they expected even more success than they

961
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,879
Speaker 2: had based on the caliber of player they were dealing with.

962
00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:40,600
Speaker 2: Yet Aaron Rodgers in his prime and you weren't.

963
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 6: You didn't get too many bites at the Apple.

964
00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:47,040
Speaker 2: The offensive line has to be put together, You're right, Doc,

965
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 2: that is not an easy thing to do, and there

966
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:51,719
Speaker 2: will be some change on that Jets offensive line and

967
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,320
Speaker 2: that has to happen if they're going to make a difference.

968
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:59,839
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean we talked about it earlier. Maddyers

969
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,520
Speaker 2: still mobile enough, but not as mobile as he once was.

970
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:07,080
Speaker 2: And I will say Doc you right. He does play

971
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:10,280
Speaker 2: outside the box sometimes. Sometimes he thinks he's the smartest

972
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,240
Speaker 2: person in the room and will take it upon himself

973
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:16,120
Speaker 2: to ad lib and maybe go off script more than

974
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:19,120
Speaker 2: a coach would like. And I don't know that Hackett

975
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:22,800
Speaker 2: is is the kind of guy with a coaching style

976
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:26,799
Speaker 2: that'll check him and say, Aaron, we're doing it this way,

977
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:28,360
Speaker 2: so stop messing around.

978
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 6: I don't see Hackett as that kind of coach.

979
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:35,520
Speaker 2: So if Rogers is given an inch, there's a chance

980
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:36,279
Speaker 2: he could take a mile.

981
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:39,920
Speaker 4: I also wonder so, I mean, I think things started

982
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:42,560
Speaker 4: to go sideways for Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay

983
00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 4: Packers when they drafted Jordan Love was when all this

984
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 4: stuff started to come about. And when Aaron Rodgers resulted me, yeah,

985
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:51,279
Speaker 4: would voice his opinion more and choose to do what

986
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:54,879
Speaker 4: he wanted to do more. And I wonder if since

987
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 4: he's on a new team, there is at least in

988
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,319
Speaker 4: this first year, there is I will be on my

989
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:03,640
Speaker 4: best behavior because I got players like Alan Lazard, I

990
00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:05,920
Speaker 4: got a guy like Randall Cobb. I'm playing with the

991
00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:10,000
Speaker 4: guy in Hackett that I understand the system and I know,

992
00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:14,320
Speaker 4: and we have this relationships that has existed before my

993
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,200
Speaker 4: time with the New York Jets, So I kind of

994
00:50:17,719 --> 00:50:20,239
Speaker 4: I would think I could be totally wrong, but I

995
00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 4: would think that he will be on a different type

996
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,520
Speaker 4: of behavior in this first year with the Jets because

997
00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 4: it's new, and new is shiny right now for him,

998
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:31,160
Speaker 4: and new is happy for him. All those pictures that

999
00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:33,279
Speaker 4: we saw of him smiling, you know.

1000
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:35,359
Speaker 2: And not only that, the Jets rolled out the red

1001
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,719
Speaker 2: carpet for him, Yeah, did all of those player acquisitions

1002
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,880
Speaker 2: that you talked about. So there's no reason for Rogers

1003
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:44,640
Speaker 2: to have any you know, be crying sour grapes. The

1004
00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 2: Jets have done everything in their power to make him

1005
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:51,240
Speaker 2: feel welcome, comfortable and successful.

1006
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:51,520
Speaker 6: On the field.

1007
00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:54,799
Speaker 2: So yeah, there's no reason for him to have any

1008
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:58,880
Speaker 2: ill will towards the Jets, which you know clearly things

1009
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,879
Speaker 2: got a little or in Green Bay based on how

1010
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:04,480
Speaker 2: things went down there. So we have to take a

1011
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 2: break here, but we are talking more Jets when we

1012
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 2: come back, because joining us will be Jets dot Com

1013
00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:13,319
Speaker 2: reporter Eric Allen joining us. As we get a little

1014
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,320
Speaker 2: bit deeper into the Jets offseason roster construction.

1015
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:18,880
Speaker 6: Beyond Aaron Rodgers.

1016
00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:21,160
Speaker 2: Have they really improved in more than just the quarterback

1017
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:24,920
Speaker 2: area to truly make a difference for their fortunes in

1018
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:27,920
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. We'll tackle that next here on One

1019
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:29,480
Speaker 2: Bill's Live presented by Colida Health.

1020
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:30,719
Speaker 6: It's Buffalo Bills.

1021
00:51:30,480 --> 00:52:18,600
Speaker 1: Radio, the One Bills Live presented by Kalida Health.

1022
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,840
Speaker 2: All Right, hour number two Here on a Friday, Chris Brown,

1023
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:26,120
Speaker 2: Maddy Glad with you and our trip around the AFC East.

1024
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:30,080
Speaker 2: Now that the bulk of offseason roster construction is complete,

1025
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:33,880
Speaker 2: wraps up in New York where the Bills will be

1026
00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:37,840
Speaker 2: taking on the Jets in week one and in prime

1027
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:40,719
Speaker 2: time no less, at MetLife Stadium, which will be in

1028
00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 2: a veritable froth in week one. That is going to

1029
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:45,520
Speaker 2: be a heck of an atmosphere to walk into. But

1030
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,520
Speaker 2: here to tell us a little bit more about the

1031
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:52,719
Speaker 2: Jets roster construction to this point, chiefly beyond Aaron Rodgers

1032
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 2: is New York Jets Senior Content Director team reporter Eric

1033
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 2: Allen joining us on the show.

1034
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:03,240
Speaker 9: How we doing, ea, Brownie, Maddie, Happy Friday to you both.

1035
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, Happy Friday to you as well.

1036
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:08,000
Speaker 2: And you know, we know the Rogers train is already

1037
00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 2: careening out of control. Fans are over the moon about

1038
00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:13,719
Speaker 2: you know, the prospect of having upon a FID four

1039
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:19,000
Speaker 2: time MVP as their quarterback. Where do you kind of

1040
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 2: come down, Eric on the construction of the offensive line,

1041
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:27,160
Speaker 2: which I think you would agree, at least at this point,

1042
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:29,720
Speaker 2: still has some pieces to be fit together.

1043
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:34,200
Speaker 9: Well, Brownie, this team was decimated by injuries up front

1044
00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:37,400
Speaker 9: along that offensive line last season. I go back to

1045
00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:40,960
Speaker 9: Week seven, the Jets took down to Denver Broncos sixteen

1046
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:44,520
Speaker 9: to nine, and they lost Elijah Vera Tucker and Breist

1047
00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:48,480
Speaker 9: Hall in that game. If those two play seventeen games

1048
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,840
Speaker 9: for the Jets last season, I think it's a playoff

1049
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:56,840
Speaker 9: team last season despite getting inconsistent play at the quarterback position.

1050
00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:59,839
Speaker 9: Fortunately for the Jets. As you enter the offseason, here's

1051
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:03,920
Speaker 9: what you have, Brownie. You know you have two starters

1052
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:09,080
Speaker 9: at guard left guard Lancln Tomlinson right guard. You're gonna

1053
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:12,160
Speaker 9: have Elijah Vera Tucker. Vera Tucker can play along that

1054
00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:15,720
Speaker 9: offensive line practically anywhere. If you played him at center,

1055
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:19,440
Speaker 9: he'd probably excel there as well. Speaking of the center position,

1056
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:24,080
Speaker 9: the Jets addressed the center position in the draft, taking

1057
00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 9: Joe Tipman out of Wisconsin. He was the first center

1058
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:30,640
Speaker 9: off the board. The Jets also resigned Connor McGovern. He's

1059
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:34,560
Speaker 9: a guy who had anchored that center position for the

1060
00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:37,800
Speaker 9: past few years for the Jets. They also signed a

1061
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 9: free agency Wes Schweitzer, who was most recently at Washington.

1062
00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:44,680
Speaker 9: He's got center experience. So we'll have to see how

1063
00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:46,880
Speaker 9: that all plays out at the center spot. But I

1064
00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:51,399
Speaker 9: think they're very high on Joe Tipman and you could

1065
00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:56,240
Speaker 9: have that Wisconsin exchange next season with the former Badger

1066
00:54:56,560 --> 00:55:00,400
Speaker 9: hiking the ball to Aaron Rodgers. Of course, now at

1067
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 9: the tackle position, Brownie, the Jets like what they got

1068
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:09,040
Speaker 9: out of Max Mitchell last year as a rookie. McKai

1069
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:13,080
Speaker 9: beck then he's the big X factor, I would say

1070
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:15,279
Speaker 9: for this team because he's a former first round pick

1071
00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:18,239
Speaker 9: who excelled his rookie the last two seasons he's been

1072
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:20,640
Speaker 9: out of the lineup. He looks great as far as

1073
00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 9: what he's doing in the offseason and where he's at.

1074
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:29,720
Speaker 9: But for him, it's gonna be Hey, Canvectans stay healthy? Also,

1075
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:32,600
Speaker 9: Dwayne Brown returns. Dwayne Brown is a guy who got

1076
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:36,960
Speaker 9: it out last year for the Jets, basically playing with

1077
00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 9: one arm. So for the Jets. Yes, Rogers comes in,

1078
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,920
Speaker 9: but you're right, Brownie. Listen, this team has to stay

1079
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:50,440
Speaker 9: healthy at this at along the offensive line at all spots.

1080
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:55,080
Speaker 9: But they do have bodies and they do think they

1081
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:58,400
Speaker 9: will have answers up front this year, but especially in

1082
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:01,839
Speaker 9: the interior. I think that that's where you're feeling really good.

1083
00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:04,239
Speaker 9: We're gonna have to see how these battles play out

1084
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:05,800
Speaker 9: on the outside a tackle.

1085
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:08,560
Speaker 4: In addition to the offensive line, there's a couple new

1086
00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:11,759
Speaker 4: wide receivers on the team who have been able to

1087
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:14,480
Speaker 4: play with Aaron Rodgers on the Packers. You got Randall

1088
00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:17,399
Speaker 4: Cobb and Alan Lazard being brought into the fold. Now,

1089
00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:20,720
Speaker 4: how do you see those two guys fitting into what's

1090
00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:24,840
Speaker 4: already a part of a good and talented wide receiver room.

1091
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:29,839
Speaker 9: Well, the lead guy there is Garrett Wilson, offensive Rookie

1092
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:33,440
Speaker 9: of the Year last year more than eleven hundred yards receiving

1093
00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:37,759
Speaker 9: despite playing with four different quarterbacks. So for him this

1094
00:56:37,960 --> 00:56:40,280
Speaker 9: time right now in the spring is very valuable because

1095
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 9: Aaron Rodgers been out there on the field at OTA's

1096
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:47,480
Speaker 9: an offseason workout, not I should say offseason workouts OTAs

1097
00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:50,840
Speaker 9: start next week for the Jets. Much like the Buffalo Bills,

1098
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:56,440
Speaker 9: you know, and Aaron Rodgers actually has compared his movement

1099
00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:58,719
Speaker 9: to Devonte Adams. Now, are they going to have that

1100
00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:02,479
Speaker 9: kind of chemistry early on here in year one? We'll

1101
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:04,880
Speaker 9: have to see. But Allen Lazard was a big pickup

1102
00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:08,919
Speaker 9: because fourteen touchdowns the last two seasons with the Green

1103
00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:12,640
Speaker 9: Bay Packers. He gives the Jets another size element. He

1104
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:17,840
Speaker 9: six and twenty seven pounds. Speaking of size, the Jets,

1105
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:21,600
Speaker 9: when Corey Davis went down last season, they got small

1106
00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:25,920
Speaker 9: really quick. That's what Robert Salaz said. So Lazard not

1107
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 9: only brings the size quotient, but also he's a guy

1108
00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:33,880
Speaker 9: familiar with Rogers, he's familiar with the system playing under

1109
00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:38,240
Speaker 9: Nathaniel Hackett. And then in the slot. It's a change

1110
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:42,320
Speaker 9: dynamic because Elijah Moore was traded to the Cleveland Browns

1111
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:47,520
Speaker 9: and the Jets signed McCole herman junior from Kansas City

1112
00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:50,520
Speaker 9: and free agency, and you mentioned Randall Cobb as well.

1113
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:53,760
Speaker 9: Maddie Cobb is a guy, another guy who fits the

1114
00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:58,000
Speaker 9: bill in terms of he's got the relationship with Aaron Rodgers.

1115
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,000
Speaker 9: He can help this team out in the red zone

1116
00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:03,160
Speaker 9: and on third down, so he can work the center

1117
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:06,320
Speaker 9: of the field. And don't forget about Corey Davis. Corey

1118
00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:09,520
Speaker 9: Davis continues to be on this roster as well, So

1119
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:14,240
Speaker 9: the Jets. It is a wide receiver room that Aaron

1120
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:17,320
Speaker 9: Rodgers will be thrown to here in twenty twenty three.

1121
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:20,760
Speaker 9: But two of those guys are guys he's awfully familiar with,

1122
00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 9: in Lazard and of course Randall Coopp.

1123
00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:27,920
Speaker 2: Let's move off the field just briefly here, and we

1124
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:31,280
Speaker 2: already know that the Jets are working to renegotiate Aaron's

1125
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:33,920
Speaker 2: contract to make next year more palatable.

1126
00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:36,360
Speaker 6: They think the cap figures over one hundred million dollars, they.

1127
00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 2: Gotta do something about that, and they already went to

1128
00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:43,360
Speaker 2: Carl Lawson and he took a pay cut to kind

1129
00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:48,160
Speaker 2: of help alleviate and create some cap space there. Indications

1130
00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:51,360
Speaker 2: are it's gonna take more than one guy helping out

1131
00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 2: here in that regard, because after you get done with Rogers,

1132
00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:58,360
Speaker 2: you're probably gonna have to take care of Quinn Williams too.

1133
00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:05,240
Speaker 2: How How long do you anticipate those negotiations taking Are

1134
00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:07,919
Speaker 2: we running the risk of running into training camp because

1135
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:11,640
Speaker 2: those are two super important players, arguably your most important

1136
00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:15,400
Speaker 2: player on offense and defense, and they're gonna be giant

1137
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:17,240
Speaker 2: contracts no matter which way you slice it.

1138
00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:22,959
Speaker 9: Yeah, listen, I think the bottom line is Rogers wanted

1139
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:26,840
Speaker 9: to be here, Brownie. He's made that clear. The team

1140
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:30,120
Speaker 9: produced an in house documentary Flight twenty three last night

1141
00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:32,960
Speaker 9: that I think that I think fans throughout the National

1142
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:36,400
Speaker 9: Football League would love to watch. You can sense the

1143
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:39,240
Speaker 9: excitement that he has to be here, and at this

1144
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:43,600
Speaker 9: point of his career, I don't think Rogers is going

1145
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:47,160
Speaker 9: to be looking at something where hey, can I get

1146
00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:49,880
Speaker 9: another punny here? Can I get another penny here? He

1147
00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:53,520
Speaker 9: wants to win another championship. Bottom line. With that being said,

1148
00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:57,520
Speaker 9: so I think that contract is going to work out

1149
00:59:57,600 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 9: for both him and the Jets because he wants to

1150
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:03,560
Speaker 9: have as many valuable assets on both sides of the

1151
01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:06,880
Speaker 9: ball as possible, Brownie. With that being said, you're right

1152
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:10,760
Speaker 9: about Quinnon Williams. Those negotiations continue. I would say this

1153
01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:16,560
Speaker 9: that GM Joe Douglas said those talks have been productive.

1154
01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:20,280
Speaker 9: I know what's happening as far as Quinnon right now

1155
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:25,360
Speaker 9: on his side of the ledger. Social media. People try

1156
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:28,840
Speaker 9: to interpret everything that's happening out there daily with these players,

1157
01:00:28,840 --> 01:00:31,560
Speaker 9: and you guys know that with Stefan Diggs out there

1158
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:37,000
Speaker 9: in Buffalo. But bottom line is, listen, Quinn Williams is

1159
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,440
Speaker 9: a big part of the future of this team and

1160
01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:42,760
Speaker 9: he's gonna be a big part of what the Jets

1161
01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:45,880
Speaker 9: do in twenty twenty three. One of the finest defensive

1162
01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:49,240
Speaker 9: players in all football twelve sacks last season and all Pro.

1163
01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:52,520
Speaker 4: So we know Nathaniel Hackett will bring in a new

1164
01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,960
Speaker 4: system with the Jets, and we know Aaron Rodgers and

1165
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:57,840
Speaker 4: him have a relationship and it's a familiar system for

1166
01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:01,720
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers, but it's not a familiar system them for everybody.

1167
01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:02,120
Speaker 5: On the offense.

1168
01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:05,240
Speaker 4: So why is OTA's the next few weeks going to

1169
01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:07,800
Speaker 4: be so important for this team? And what do you

1170
01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:10,480
Speaker 4: see as the learning curve for some of these players

1171
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:12,840
Speaker 4: who will be playing in a new system this season.

1172
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:17,320
Speaker 9: Well, yeah, it's a great question. And we look at

1173
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:20,720
Speaker 9: some of these guys, some of these elite quarterbacks or

1174
01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:24,000
Speaker 9: future Hall of Fame quarterbacks or Hall of Fame quarterbacks

1175
01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:26,919
Speaker 9: who went to a second stop. Most recently, you think

1176
01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:30,320
Speaker 9: about Tom Brady, after that great run in New England,

1177
01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:33,600
Speaker 9: he goes to Tampa and he wins that Super Bowl

1178
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:36,680
Speaker 9: the first year. How about Peyton Manning going to Denver

1179
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:39,240
Speaker 9: and winning the Super Bowl. Matt Stafford not in the

1180
01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:42,680
Speaker 9: class of those two, or Aaron Rodgers, but his first

1181
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:46,040
Speaker 9: year with the La Rams, of course they win a

1182
01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:50,640
Speaker 9: Super Bowl. Here's the thing people often ask me the

1183
01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:54,160
Speaker 9: difference between Aaron Rodgers coming here and Brett Favre in

1184
01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:59,000
Speaker 9: two thousand and eight. There's three distinct differences timing, because

1185
01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 9: this trade happened in April. Brett Favre came to the

1186
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:06,280
Speaker 9: Jets in August. The second part of this is Aaron

1187
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:08,919
Speaker 9: Rodgers wants to be here, not saying that Brett Farr

1188
01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:11,720
Speaker 9: was a male content, but he wanted actually to go

1189
01:02:11,760 --> 01:02:14,280
Speaker 9: to Minnesota. He would wind up with the Vikings in

1190
01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:18,440
Speaker 9: two thousand and nine, but he wanted actually his second

1191
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,520
Speaker 9: choice was the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Then his third choice

1192
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:24,840
Speaker 9: was the New York Jets. And then the final piece

1193
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:28,440
Speaker 9: of this, which is the most encouraging, perhaps of all,

1194
01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:34,040
Speaker 9: is that Aaron Rodgers has a great relationship with Nathaniel Hackett.

1195
01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:39,040
Speaker 9: They succeeded, they excelled together in Green Bay. Rogers was

1196
01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:42,720
Speaker 9: back to back MVP in twenty twenty. In twenty twenty

1197
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:47,160
Speaker 9: one putting up astronomical numbers. Not only does Rogers come here,

1198
01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:50,080
Speaker 9: but the Jets did sign Billy Turner in free agency.

1199
01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:54,200
Speaker 9: We were talking about the offensive line before, So he's

1200
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:58,880
Speaker 9: another guy who's got familiarity with Rogers and Nathaniel Hackett.

1201
01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:04,760
Speaker 9: Alan Lazard much the same familiarity with Rogers and Nathaniel Hacket,

1202
01:03:05,040 --> 01:03:07,760
Speaker 9: and then Randall Cobb in the same boat as well.

1203
01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:10,040
Speaker 9: So Rogers is going to be a coach on field

1204
01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:13,800
Speaker 9: here because when Farv came to the Jets, him and

1205
01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:17,800
Speaker 9: Brian Schottenheimer had to meet together and figure out, Hey,

1206
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:21,760
Speaker 9: what was going to be the best for this offense

1207
01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:25,600
Speaker 9: in the New York Jets. Whereas far Aaron Rodgers comes

1208
01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:29,560
Speaker 9: in and he's got ownership, it's like having a coach

1209
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:33,040
Speaker 9: on the field, and you have a number of other

1210
01:03:33,240 --> 01:03:38,520
Speaker 9: former Packers, a number of other former players who've excelled

1211
01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:41,680
Speaker 9: and also liked playing under Nathaniel Hackett. So I think

1212
01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:44,360
Speaker 9: the Jets that give the Jets gives the Jets a

1213
01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:46,800
Speaker 9: leg up as here as they enter the twenty twenty

1214
01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:47,320
Speaker 9: three season.

1215
01:03:47,760 --> 01:03:51,720
Speaker 2: Eric, is there any update on when Breeze Hall will

1216
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 2: be fully cleared to return? Are we looking at the

1217
01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:56,920
Speaker 2: start of training camp. You mentioned earlier Week seven was

1218
01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:59,640
Speaker 2: when he suffered the injury. So are we looking at

1219
01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:00,880
Speaker 2: the start training camp?

1220
01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:02,080
Speaker 6: Is it a wait and see?

1221
01:04:02,200 --> 01:04:04,560
Speaker 2: Is it probably closer to the start of the regular season.

1222
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:08,960
Speaker 2: And do you think the drafting of Israel Abanacanada is

1223
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:12,680
Speaker 2: any kind of insurance plan in the event that Brice

1224
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:13,480
Speaker 2: is not ready.

1225
01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:17,400
Speaker 9: I'll take the second part of that first Brownie. I

1226
01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:22,520
Speaker 9: don't think that is an insurance policy there. The Jets

1227
01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:25,760
Speaker 9: loved the Bona Konda. They couldn't believe he was still

1228
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,200
Speaker 9: on the board where he was. This is a kid

1229
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:31,560
Speaker 9: who just really excelled at Pittsburgh and they think he's

1230
01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:34,520
Speaker 9: going to be a great system fit. As far as

1231
01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:38,480
Speaker 9: what Nathaniel Hackett is running up front, he's another home

1232
01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:42,000
Speaker 9: run hitter. Speaking of home run hitters, Breece Hall, Jets

1233
01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:44,840
Speaker 9: are saying that he's going to be ready, okay in

1234
01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:48,000
Speaker 9: twenty twenty three. What that means and where he's going

1235
01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:51,320
Speaker 9: to be at. I don't think the Jets are going

1236
01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:54,560
Speaker 9: to put a timetable and saying, hey, listen, he is

1237
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:57,760
Speaker 9: out of the gates. Is he the same Breecee Hall

1238
01:04:57,840 --> 01:04:59,720
Speaker 9: that you saw in week seven? We'll have to see.

1239
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:03,160
Speaker 9: We'll tell you this. They're saying that he is ahead

1240
01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:08,360
Speaker 9: of schedule in his rehab, and Brece Hall has been

1241
01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:12,919
Speaker 9: out here in the offseason running and looking good here

1242
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:15,920
Speaker 9: early and this is May, I mean, so you have

1243
01:05:16,040 --> 01:05:19,360
Speaker 9: a few months to work with So I would anticipate

1244
01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:21,920
Speaker 9: Briess's all gonna be ready to go early next season.

1245
01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:24,480
Speaker 9: What that's actually going to look like, we'll have to see.

1246
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:27,440
Speaker 9: But the Jets like their backfield because not only they

1247
01:05:27,440 --> 01:05:30,160
Speaker 9: have Hal, they add a Bona Kanda. They do have

1248
01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:33,560
Speaker 9: Michael Carter and Zanovan bam Knight, a form on drafted

1249
01:05:33,600 --> 01:05:36,280
Speaker 9: free agent out of North Carolina State. He actually played

1250
01:05:36,280 --> 01:05:40,479
Speaker 9: well for this team as well. Don't sleep on Carter though,

1251
01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:43,200
Speaker 9: because he's a guy who really excelled his rookie season.

1252
01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:46,560
Speaker 9: So the Jets do have a loaded backfield. But they

1253
01:05:46,560 --> 01:05:50,040
Speaker 9: would have took a Bona Konda regardless of Breecee Hall's health.

1254
01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:50,920
Speaker 9: I'm convinced of that.

1255
01:05:51,320 --> 01:05:54,080
Speaker 4: You touched on wide receivers, the running backs, in the

1256
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:57,400
Speaker 4: offensive line. Is there another position group on either side

1257
01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:01,720
Speaker 4: of the field that you believe have a big impact

1258
01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:04,160
Speaker 4: on the team and on the season as a whole.

1259
01:06:04,200 --> 01:06:04,640
Speaker 5: This year.

1260
01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:08,760
Speaker 9: Well, here's the thing. The Jets took Will McDonald out

1261
01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:10,800
Speaker 9: of Iowa State in the first round, and most people

1262
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:13,360
Speaker 9: are saying, why did you not get Aaron Rodgers. Help.

1263
01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:16,920
Speaker 9: Here's the thought process there. The Jets want to come

1264
01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:20,240
Speaker 9: at you at waves with Aaron Rodgers. You're gonna have

1265
01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:22,960
Speaker 9: a better offense in twenty twenty three. You just are.

1266
01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:25,760
Speaker 9: I mean, you look at the Jets across the board

1267
01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:28,360
Speaker 9: as far as their metrics are concerned. Last season, You're

1268
01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:32,360
Speaker 9: gonna have a better offense this season. The Jets want

1269
01:06:32,360 --> 01:06:36,640
Speaker 9: to play with the lead late. They are stacked at

1270
01:06:36,880 --> 01:06:40,880
Speaker 9: defensive end. Because I was just talking about to this

1271
01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:45,439
Speaker 9: about this with Jeff Albrick. The Jets defensive coordinator Carl

1272
01:06:45,520 --> 01:06:48,480
Speaker 9: Lawson came back from Achilles, played really well last season.

1273
01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:51,760
Speaker 9: He returns. You drafted Jermaine Johnson in the first round.

1274
01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:54,800
Speaker 9: The Jets like what they got out of him in

1275
01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:58,520
Speaker 9: year one. You draft Will McDonald, a guy who thirty

1276
01:06:58,520 --> 01:07:01,560
Speaker 9: four sacks, forty two tackles, loss in ten force fumbles

1277
01:07:01,560 --> 01:07:05,240
Speaker 9: at Iowa State. He enters the equation. Bryce hoff is

1278
01:07:05,280 --> 01:07:07,960
Speaker 9: a guy who ended that game, essentially ended that game

1279
01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:10,640
Speaker 9: against the Bills last year at Mett Life Stadium. You

1280
01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:13,520
Speaker 9: guys remember that him getting to Josh Allen and that

1281
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:18,240
Speaker 9: actually caused Allen's arm injury that he to deal with

1282
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:21,240
Speaker 9: for the rest of the season. Then you have John Franklin.

1283
01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:24,240
Speaker 9: Meyer is a guy they like because he brings a

1284
01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:27,720
Speaker 9: versatility and equation. Not only does he play and but

1285
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:30,840
Speaker 9: he comes inside he can drop down. The Jets drafted

1286
01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,000
Speaker 9: in Michael Clemens in a fourth round last year. They

1287
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:36,680
Speaker 9: liked his production. He's another guy who can swing inside.

1288
01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:40,320
Speaker 9: So it's kind of an embarrassment of riches for the

1289
01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:43,640
Speaker 9: Jets at defensive end, and they're gonna be really tough

1290
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:47,840
Speaker 9: to deal with if they do have leads late because

1291
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:51,120
Speaker 9: I just don't know how teams are gonna come back

1292
01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:54,320
Speaker 9: against the Jets here this season. And then it all

1293
01:07:54,360 --> 01:07:57,680
Speaker 9: starts with the Jets in the middle at defensive tackle,

1294
01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:01,200
Speaker 9: where you're seeing a lot of changes to Quinn and Williams.

1295
01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:03,280
Speaker 9: Quinn and Williams is a guy coming off of twelve

1296
01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:06,680
Speaker 9: sac year, so up for if you're gonna beat the Jets.

1297
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:08,400
Speaker 9: If the Bills are gonna beat the Jets and the

1298
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:14,160
Speaker 9: three time defending AFCAST champs, you're not gonna be beating

1299
01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:17,400
Speaker 9: them coming from behind. You're just not gonna do that

1300
01:08:17,479 --> 01:08:18,000
Speaker 9: this season.

1301
01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 2: Speaking of the defensive line for the Jets, Eric, I mean, yeah,

1302
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:25,880
Speaker 2: it's an embarrassment of riches. How are they gonna make

1303
01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:29,320
Speaker 2: roster decisions here? I mean, you got six quality defensive ends.

1304
01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:32,120
Speaker 2: You gotta have at least four defensive tackles on your

1305
01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:35,400
Speaker 2: fifty three man roster. Is there a chance that somebody

1306
01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:36,479
Speaker 2: gets lopped off.

1307
01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:39,000
Speaker 6: Here or maybe even traded late in.

1308
01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:41,880
Speaker 2: The preseason because they're not gonna be able to keep

1309
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:44,679
Speaker 2: these guys? And then I understand you can protect people

1310
01:08:44,760 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 2: on the practice squad, but you know it's it's.

1311
01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:50,200
Speaker 6: Gonna be some tough calls here for them, right.

1312
01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:54,120
Speaker 9: Uh, I totally agree with you. The one thing that

1313
01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:58,320
Speaker 9: I do want everybody to keep in mind is that

1314
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:03,759
Speaker 9: Salah Robert Jets head coach, in defensive coordinator, Jeff Allbrick,

1315
01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:07,000
Speaker 9: defensive line coach Aaron Whitcott, and Brownie they like to

1316
01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:11,479
Speaker 9: dress tenant on game day, ten defensive linemen on game day.

1317
01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:14,880
Speaker 9: But yes, if your other teams right now and you're

1318
01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:18,040
Speaker 9: scouting the Jets in the preseason, the Jets have four

1319
01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:22,080
Speaker 9: preseason games, you're praying at one of these guys Springs

1320
01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:25,920
Speaker 9: Springs free because the Jets have just a number of

1321
01:09:25,960 --> 01:09:29,400
Speaker 9: guys that can get to the quarterback. But yeah, it's

1322
01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:32,639
Speaker 9: going to be fascinating as far as how those reps

1323
01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:36,280
Speaker 9: are distributed once we get to the regular season. But

1324
01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:40,200
Speaker 9: the Jets are definitely in a good position once you

1325
01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:42,760
Speaker 9: reach late in the year because they do have an

1326
01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:46,840
Speaker 9: embarrassment of riches at the defensive end position. The one

1327
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:51,160
Speaker 9: area to watch up front is defensive tackle. Sheldon Rankins

1328
01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:54,599
Speaker 9: signed with Houston free agency. Nathan Sheppard goes and signs

1329
01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:58,240
Speaker 9: in pre agency with New Orleans Saints. The Jets got

1330
01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:00,919
Speaker 9: a couple of new pieces up there, and you guys,

1331
01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:04,320
Speaker 9: Brownie and Maddy know very well Quentin Jefferson now a

1332
01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:08,160
Speaker 9: New York Jet and also most recently the Jets also

1333
01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:11,519
Speaker 9: sign al Woods. So how's that rotation gonna work out

1334
01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:14,720
Speaker 9: next to Quinn Williams. We'll have to see upfront.

1335
01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:18,080
Speaker 4: One more question for you for me, the Bills and

1336
01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:21,280
Speaker 4: the Jets will face off against each other in Week one,

1337
01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:26,360
Speaker 4: September eleventh, Monday night Football primetime matchup at your place.

1338
01:10:26,439 --> 01:10:28,920
Speaker 4: What do you think of that Week one matchup? Do

1339
01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:31,080
Speaker 4: you like playing a team like the Bills? In that

1340
01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,960
Speaker 4: week one game on a primetime stage.

1341
01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:38,400
Speaker 9: It's going to be unbelievable. I mean, the Jets Jets

1342
01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:41,360
Speaker 9: first six games really something. I mean, you guys know,

1343
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:44,839
Speaker 9: because the Bills basically have the same schedule of the Jets.

1344
01:10:44,840 --> 01:10:48,280
Speaker 9: It's just the way how it's constructed where I think

1345
01:10:48,320 --> 01:10:50,240
Speaker 9: if you're a Bills fan, you're looking at it and say,

1346
01:10:50,720 --> 01:10:53,840
Speaker 9: we got to make sure we take care of our

1347
01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:56,880
Speaker 9: business early because after that Jets game, I guess the

1348
01:10:56,920 --> 01:11:00,800
Speaker 9: Bills schedule on paper it likens up quite a bit

1349
01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:04,040
Speaker 9: for the Jets. Here's the first six games. You got

1350
01:11:04,360 --> 01:11:08,479
Speaker 9: the Bills at home, short week at Dallas, then you

1351
01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:10,920
Speaker 9: come home to face a new England team who's beat

1352
01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:15,639
Speaker 9: you fourteen consecutive games in the regular season, fourteen consecutive times.

1353
01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:18,120
Speaker 9: Then as Sunday Night at Fair against Patrick Mahomes and

1354
01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:22,719
Speaker 9: defendee champion Kansas City Chiefs. Then a trip to Denver,

1355
01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:26,360
Speaker 9: and then you finish that six game run with a

1356
01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:30,040
Speaker 9: trip from the NFC champs. They're gonna visit here to

1357
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:34,080
Speaker 9: Philadelphia Eagles. But as far as the schedule is concerned, yeah, listen,

1358
01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:37,760
Speaker 9: it's gonna be an electric atmosphere. It's an honor for

1359
01:11:37,800 --> 01:11:40,160
Speaker 9: any New York team to play twenty two years after

1360
01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:42,920
Speaker 9: nine to eleven. Then you think about Aaron Rodgers coming

1361
01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:45,960
Speaker 9: out of the tunnel for the first time as a

1362
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,840
Speaker 9: New York Jet. I mean, what else would you want?

1363
01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:51,640
Speaker 9: What else would you rather want if you are a

1364
01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:54,800
Speaker 9: Jet fan, because you do get the team who's been

1365
01:11:54,920 --> 01:11:58,000
Speaker 9: at the top of the division in your building. But

1366
01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:04,080
Speaker 9: it's a great matchup, a great matchup between two elite quarterbacks.

1367
01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:09,920
Speaker 9: And yeah, I just think that as far as the

1368
01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:15,120
Speaker 9: vibes around this team right now, very positive. The fan base,

1369
01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:18,000
Speaker 9: I have not seen it this hungry since the time

1370
01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:20,760
Speaker 9: I've been here. I've been here since two thousand and one.

1371
01:12:22,439 --> 01:12:24,600
Speaker 9: But with that being said, there's a healthy amount of

1372
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:28,559
Speaker 9: respect for Sean McDermott, Josh Allen and what the Bills

1373
01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:31,120
Speaker 9: bring to the table. And you know it's going to

1374
01:12:31,160 --> 01:12:32,439
Speaker 9: be a fun one, that's for sure.

1375
01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:33,040
Speaker 3: Out of the gate.

1376
01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:37,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, should be a fitting crescendo to a pretty pretty

1377
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:41,040
Speaker 2: crazy offseason for the Jets that have been filled with

1378
01:12:41,320 --> 01:12:45,240
Speaker 2: some unbelievable headlines. So soak it all up. Eric, We'll

1379
01:12:45,240 --> 01:12:48,720
Speaker 2: see you soon enough. Enjoy your summer, man, appreciate the time.

1380
01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:50,519
Speaker 2: As always, we'll catch up with you down the line.

1381
01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:53,960
Speaker 9: Thanks to you both. Make sure you get some rest

1382
01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:55,920
Speaker 9: and we'll be seeing this soon and here in September.

1383
01:12:55,960 --> 01:12:56,880
Speaker 6: All right, thanks Eric.

1384
01:12:56,920 --> 01:12:59,439
Speaker 2: That's Eric Allen joining us New York Jets senior director

1385
01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:03,920
Speaker 2: of con hint and team reporter. And yeah, I mean,

1386
01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:06,000
Speaker 2: Jets fans haven't had a whole lot to be excited

1387
01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:08,439
Speaker 2: about the last few years, but I think they think

1388
01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:11,480
Speaker 2: the team this year will reach critical mass.

1389
01:13:12,840 --> 01:13:14,280
Speaker 6: And they're the hot, shiny.

1390
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:16,599
Speaker 2: New toy that everybody thinks it's gonna go places this year.

1391
01:13:17,120 --> 01:13:19,200
Speaker 2: You know, the Jets fans certainly hope that's the case.

1392
01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:23,479
Speaker 2: Adversity strikes every season, and those first six games are

1393
01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:26,759
Speaker 2: a bear. Yeah, they have a buy in Week seven

1394
01:13:26,800 --> 01:13:29,320
Speaker 2: and it's like they're gonna want one after that first

1395
01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:29,840
Speaker 2: six game.

1396
01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:33,360
Speaker 4: Do you see the Chiefs and the Eagles, Like man,

1397
01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:36,000
Speaker 4: that is a gauntlet to start off the season.

1398
01:13:37,520 --> 01:13:39,920
Speaker 2: I mean, they've lost to the Patriots.

1399
01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:44,439
Speaker 4: I didn't realize that. I knew it's been a while,

1400
01:13:44,520 --> 01:13:45,679
Speaker 4: but I didn't know it was fortunate.

1401
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:48,280
Speaker 2: And last year was the disastrous game that Tack Wilson had.

1402
01:13:48,280 --> 01:13:50,080
Speaker 2: He threw three picks in the second half and they

1403
01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:54,439
Speaker 2: they the Patriots came back and won, and then they

1404
01:13:54,439 --> 01:13:57,600
Speaker 2: had that horrible punt return, oh yeah, with under a

1405
01:13:57,640 --> 01:13:59,840
Speaker 2: minute to play that cost them the game.

1406
01:13:59,880 --> 01:14:01,439
Speaker 6: I think it ended like nine to three.

1407
01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:04,840
Speaker 2: That basically ruined their playoff hopes because they were in

1408
01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:07,519
Speaker 2: the driver's seat. I think they were like seven and four.

1409
01:14:07,640 --> 01:14:10,040
Speaker 2: Then they lose that game, they fall to seven and five,

1410
01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:12,240
Speaker 2: and they kind of fell out of the wild card

1411
01:14:12,320 --> 01:14:14,800
Speaker 2: race at that point and they never got it back.

1412
01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:18,080
Speaker 6: It was just they pretty much buried him after that.

1413
01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:21,120
Speaker 2: The Patriots eventually passed them in the division, and yeah,

1414
01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:25,679
Speaker 2: it was who yeah that one. I wonder like, look,

1415
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:27,680
Speaker 2: the Bills are the top dog in the division and

1416
01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:30,479
Speaker 2: we all know why. And I'm sure Jets fans will

1417
01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:34,200
Speaker 2: be amped, you know, if Aaron Rodgers and the team

1418
01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:36,920
Speaker 2: can beat the Bills in Week one, But that Week

1419
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:40,879
Speaker 2: three game against the Patriots is going to be filled

1420
01:14:41,560 --> 01:14:47,439
Speaker 2: with vinegar, bitterness and vinegar and horrible tastes in everybody's mouth.

1421
01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:49,720
Speaker 2: They're gonna want to beat the pants off the Patriots

1422
01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:52,880
Speaker 2: because they've beat them fourteen times in a row, which

1423
01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:55,000
Speaker 2: I mean that's seven years, you going on seven years.

1424
01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:58,120
Speaker 2: You haven't beaten that team seven years.

1425
01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:00,000
Speaker 5: And Tom Brady hasn't been a.

1426
01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:01,960
Speaker 6: He has been there in three or four years.

1427
01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:04,600
Speaker 2: So yeah, and I think I think a lot of

1428
01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:07,080
Speaker 2: Jets fans thought it would turn after he left, and

1429
01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:11,400
Speaker 2: that has not been the case. Belichick has still had

1430
01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:13,439
Speaker 2: their number. We have to take a quick break here,

1431
01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:15,360
Speaker 2: but we're back to the phone calls when we return.

1443
01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:01,759
Speaker 8: Great show you guys.

1444
01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:03,040
Speaker 6: Thanks.

1445
01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:06,080
Speaker 10: I just wanted to ask what with dark.

1446
01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:09,519
Speaker 6: Yep, you're breaking up?

1447
01:16:09,600 --> 01:16:09,880
Speaker 8: Jared?

1448
01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:10,679
Speaker 6: You're there?

1449
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:12,560
Speaker 8: Can you hear me?

1450
01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:12,840
Speaker 6: Yeah?

1451
01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:15,200
Speaker 2: I can hear you now, Okay.

1452
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:19,519
Speaker 10: I was just curious once the stadium's completed in a

1453
01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:25,519
Speaker 10: couple of years. Do you think that NFL would consider

1454
01:16:25,920 --> 01:16:30,160
Speaker 10: maybe putting a Super Bowl in the new place in Buffalo?

1455
01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:37,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that I mean, I appreciate.

1456
01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:37,639
Speaker 6: The question, Jared.

1457
01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:41,040
Speaker 2: I don't want to dismiss it, but I think it's

1458
01:16:41,280 --> 01:16:46,760
Speaker 2: it's unlikely. It's only going to seat sixty to sixty two.

1459
01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:52,640
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's sufficient seating capacity, and I

1460
01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:54,840
Speaker 2: don't know the design of the stadium and whether or

1461
01:16:54,880 --> 01:16:58,840
Speaker 2: not it can accommodate a larger audience than that. We

1462
01:16:58,920 --> 01:17:03,639
Speaker 2: do know that there will be standing pavilion sections where

1463
01:17:04,000 --> 01:17:06,160
Speaker 2: people won't have a seat per se, but can stand

1464
01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:08,320
Speaker 2: to watch the game from a pavilion area as well,

1465
01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:11,000
Speaker 2: kind of standing room only tickets kind of thing. We

1466
01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:13,800
Speaker 2: know that'll be part of the stadium as well. But

1467
01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:18,040
Speaker 2: based on climate where they're located, the fact that it's

1468
01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:21,639
Speaker 2: an open air stadium Buffalo in February, I think would

1469
01:17:21,640 --> 01:17:26,519
Speaker 2: be a tough one to convince the league is a

1470
01:17:26,520 --> 01:17:30,000
Speaker 2: place where they should have a Super Bowl. Me personally,

1471
01:17:30,040 --> 01:17:31,200
Speaker 2: I would be very surprised.

1472
01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:33,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was going to say stadium aside, because that

1473
01:17:33,479 --> 01:17:35,960
Speaker 4: new stadium is going to be incredible in more ways

1474
01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:38,719
Speaker 4: than one, and the pictures and the drops that we've

1475
01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:41,599
Speaker 4: been able to see already, it looks like it's going

1476
01:17:41,680 --> 01:17:43,439
Speaker 4: to be amazing and I can't wait to see that

1477
01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:48,880
Speaker 4: final product. But with the elements and the weather and

1478
01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:51,320
Speaker 4: what you could get in February, I think that's a

1479
01:17:51,320 --> 01:17:54,639
Speaker 4: tough call to make. Knowing that there could be feet

1480
01:17:54,680 --> 01:17:58,960
Speaker 4: of snow or rain, or wind or the mix of

1481
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:03,920
Speaker 4: all three of those on a Super Bowl Sunday, that's tough.

1482
01:18:04,360 --> 01:18:08,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I would say odds are probably no. The

1483
01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:15,200
Speaker 2: last time they did a northern climate outdoor Super Bowl

1484
01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:20,920
Speaker 2: was in New York slash New Jersey at was it

1485
01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:24,320
Speaker 2: the New MetLife Stadium or was it the old Meadowlands.

1486
01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:26,720
Speaker 2: I'm trying to remember which one it was, but it

1487
01:18:26,800 --> 01:18:29,320
Speaker 2: was it was at the New Stadium, and it was

1488
01:18:29,360 --> 01:18:35,120
Speaker 2: an homage and kind of a give back to the

1489
01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:40,240
Speaker 2: New York metropolitan area for nine to eleven, at least

1490
01:18:40,240 --> 01:18:42,439
Speaker 2: that's how it was portrayed by the League, like they

1491
01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:44,559
Speaker 2: were trying to do a favor for the New York

1492
01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:49,000
Speaker 2: City metropolitan area ten twelve years after nine to eleven.

1493
01:18:49,160 --> 01:18:52,880
Speaker 2: So that was one of the main driving forces behind

1494
01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:56,840
Speaker 2: there being a cold weather outdoor venue Super Bowl in

1495
01:18:56,880 --> 01:19:00,800
Speaker 2: a northern climate I don't see them dipping their toe

1496
01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:06,439
Speaker 2: in those waters again anytime soon. Yes, there's you know,

1497
01:19:06,439 --> 01:19:08,360
Speaker 2: one of the Bill's super Bowls was in Minnesota, and

1498
01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:11,400
Speaker 2: that was in a dome, but it was ridiculously cold

1499
01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:14,200
Speaker 2: up there. You ask anybody that went, they say, we

1500
01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:15,880
Speaker 2: hope that there'd never be a super Bowl in a

1501
01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:18,600
Speaker 2: cold weather city again, because just walking around outside in

1502
01:19:18,600 --> 01:19:21,919
Speaker 2: February was insane. They have a tunnel system in Minnesota,

1503
01:19:21,960 --> 01:19:23,800
Speaker 2: it's so cold and a lot of people were using it.

1504
01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:27,840
Speaker 2: So I just think from a corporate perspective and all

1505
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:31,320
Speaker 2: the things that are built around the super Bowl be

1506
01:19:31,439 --> 01:19:34,400
Speaker 2: very diff'd be very difficult to pull that off in

1507
01:19:34,479 --> 01:19:35,400
Speaker 2: a cold weather city.

1508
01:19:35,479 --> 01:19:38,240
Speaker 5: And look, I love Buffalo. I love where I live.

1509
01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:40,320
Speaker 4: I love that I get to live in a place

1510
01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:44,320
Speaker 4: like Buffalo. But I don't know if you think about

1511
01:19:44,320 --> 01:19:47,639
Speaker 4: where hotels are and all the events that happened during

1512
01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:50,400
Speaker 4: super Bowl Week and if Buffalo is a good place

1513
01:19:50,479 --> 01:19:54,320
Speaker 4: for that. I think it could be because I love Buffalo,

1514
01:19:54,439 --> 01:19:58,439
Speaker 4: But I think national perspective people probably wouldn't think that.

1515
01:19:58,680 --> 01:20:00,960
Speaker 2: And I remember when Jacksonville got a super Bowl back

1516
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:04,519
Speaker 2: in two thousand and five, it was considered this coup

1517
01:20:04,600 --> 01:20:10,920
Speaker 2: of a job by their Department of Commerce and all

1518
01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:15,040
Speaker 2: their municipalities and all of that stuff, and they couldn't

1519
01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:18,920
Speaker 2: pull it off. They did not have the infrastructure to

1520
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:22,040
Speaker 2: support the amount of people that were descending on the

1521
01:20:22,040 --> 01:20:25,720
Speaker 2: city of Jacksonville, and they were overflowing, They didn't have

1522
01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:30,880
Speaker 2: enough hotel rooms. All of that stuff was a heavy

1523
01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:34,600
Speaker 2: lift for Jacksonville. And I think the NFL learned some

1524
01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:39,559
Speaker 2: lessons from that as well, that even if the climate

1525
01:20:39,640 --> 01:20:43,000
Speaker 2: is right and you want to welcome in what was

1526
01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:46,680
Speaker 2: then just a ten year franchise in the league, you

1527
01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:49,400
Speaker 2: got to make sure you have the infrastructure to support

1528
01:20:50,160 --> 01:20:52,600
Speaker 2: the event that the Super Bowl is, which isn't just

1529
01:20:52,680 --> 01:20:55,880
Speaker 2: one game on one day. It's an entire week, if

1530
01:20:55,880 --> 01:20:59,080
Speaker 2: not even longer than that, And the build out from

1531
01:20:59,160 --> 01:21:02,280
Speaker 2: it is even bigger than it was twenty some odd

1532
01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:06,719
Speaker 2: years ago. So it's a gigantic thing. You need massive

1533
01:21:06,800 --> 01:21:09,920
Speaker 2: amounts of infrastructure to support it. And I just don't know,

1534
01:21:09,960 --> 01:21:11,680
Speaker 2: even with the new stadium, as great as it's going

1535
01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:15,600
Speaker 2: to be, if that's enough to convince, you know, the

1536
01:21:15,640 --> 01:21:18,480
Speaker 2: decision makers in that area not to mention the fact

1537
01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:22,720
Speaker 2: that what the weather's like here in February works strongly

1538
01:21:22,800 --> 01:21:28,200
Speaker 2: against Yeah, that argument, and our weather in the last

1539
01:21:28,240 --> 01:21:31,720
Speaker 2: calendar year hasn't helped that cause either. You know, you

1540
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:36,439
Speaker 2: had a game relocated here in November, which is the

1541
01:21:36,439 --> 01:21:39,880
Speaker 2: beginning of the winter. Forget about February when we're all

1542
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:42,799
Speaker 2: hunkered down in it, you know, and then the storm

1543
01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:45,120
Speaker 2: in December that prevented the team from getting home on

1544
01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:48,240
Speaker 2: Christmas until late, late, late in the afternoon.

1545
01:21:48,439 --> 01:21:51,800
Speaker 6: So yeah, it's I think it would be a heavy lift.

1546
01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:53,880
Speaker 6: Love to see it, but I think it would be

1547
01:21:53,920 --> 01:21:55,240
Speaker 6: a heavy lift. Unfortunately.

1548
01:21:55,720 --> 01:21:57,840
Speaker 2: Let's go back to some of your questions on the

1549
01:21:57,840 --> 01:22:01,919
Speaker 2: tweet sheet here from Paul. Is there any chance Brandon

1550
01:22:01,960 --> 01:22:04,240
Speaker 2: Bean is interested in Chase Young? Is he a fit

1551
01:22:04,320 --> 01:22:08,800
Speaker 2: for our defense? Better us than k C. Now, Chase

1552
01:22:08,840 --> 01:22:11,320
Speaker 2: Young is supposed to come back full bore from his

1553
01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:15,559
Speaker 2: knee injury, which really didn't happen with any respectability last

1554
01:22:15,640 --> 01:22:23,840
Speaker 2: year in Washington. They I think the Washington commanders see

1555
01:22:23,880 --> 01:22:27,400
Speaker 2: him as a future piece, and a lot will depend

1556
01:22:27,439 --> 01:22:29,960
Speaker 2: on how he does this season. There's no question he's

1557
01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:33,160
Speaker 2: an elite talent, but I think a lot of eyeballs

1558
01:22:33,240 --> 01:22:35,439
Speaker 2: not only in Washington but probably elsewhere in the league

1559
01:22:35,560 --> 01:22:38,160
Speaker 2: beyond him to see a is this guy back to

1560
01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:39,880
Speaker 2: what he was when he was made the second pick

1561
01:22:39,880 --> 01:22:45,760
Speaker 2: in the draft. I don't know why you just automatically

1562
01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:48,320
Speaker 2: think that Kansas City would get him in some kind

1563
01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:51,639
Speaker 2: of trade thing. When they've made trades for pass rushers,

1564
01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:54,599
Speaker 2: they've been mostly of the older variety, whether it's Frank

1565
01:22:54,600 --> 01:23:00,320
Speaker 2: Clark or Melvin Ingram. You know, players like that Chase

1566
01:23:00,360 --> 01:23:03,200
Speaker 2: Young would cost an awful lot. I mean you're talking

1567
01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:06,280
Speaker 2: major draft capital and probably a player in return as well,

1568
01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:08,960
Speaker 2: even for a guy you know who's coming off an

1569
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:13,040
Speaker 2: ACL injury, provided he has the season that makes him

1570
01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:15,000
Speaker 2: look like he used to when he was an All

1571
01:23:15,040 --> 01:23:16,719
Speaker 2: world player coming out of Ohio State.

1572
01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:20,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, the Commanders declined to pick up his fifth year option.

1573
01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:24,760
Speaker 4: But in regards to the Bills, while he is a

1574
01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:26,840
Speaker 4: great player and I hope he will have a great

1575
01:23:26,840 --> 01:23:29,439
Speaker 4: season this year for the team coming back from that injury.

1576
01:23:30,520 --> 01:23:32,720
Speaker 4: I think about what Brandon has talked about quite a

1577
01:23:32,720 --> 01:23:35,519
Speaker 4: bit in relation to the defensive line, and that's been

1578
01:23:36,160 --> 01:23:40,439
Speaker 4: solely on the fact that the defensive tackle position, they

1579
01:23:40,479 --> 01:23:44,120
Speaker 4: need to start investing bodies and money into that position

1580
01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:46,559
Speaker 4: because they don't have a lot of guys on the

1581
01:23:46,640 --> 01:23:50,080
Speaker 4: roster really any guys on the roster beyond next year

1582
01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:54,000
Speaker 4: under contract, So I think there could be some focus

1583
01:23:54,080 --> 01:23:58,400
Speaker 4: on that defensive tackle position even this year. Who knows

1584
01:23:58,439 --> 01:24:00,920
Speaker 4: if more people get brought up to the roster to

1585
01:24:00,960 --> 01:24:03,280
Speaker 4: help fill out that position. And Brand has been asked

1586
01:24:03,280 --> 01:24:06,240
Speaker 4: about it several times, but in the offseason, I think

1587
01:24:06,240 --> 01:24:10,200
Speaker 4: that would be a position next offseason, that's going to

1588
01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:13,479
Speaker 4: be a position that they want to focus on and

1589
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:14,719
Speaker 4: fill with more people.

1590
01:24:15,439 --> 01:24:19,720
Speaker 2: Yes, and it's possible that maybe they extend one of

1591
01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:22,200
Speaker 2: those players before they get to the regular season, as

1592
01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:25,840
Speaker 2: we've seen this team do. They've extended certain players as

1593
01:24:25,920 --> 01:24:28,960
Speaker 2: early as August. Maybe Poona Ford comes in, lights the

1594
01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:31,040
Speaker 2: world on fire and they want to sign him to

1595
01:24:31,080 --> 01:24:33,800
Speaker 2: an extension in October, you know, to try to take

1596
01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:38,559
Speaker 2: care of some of that expiring contract issue that they

1597
01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:42,479
Speaker 2: have at that position. The only guys that are going

1598
01:24:42,560 --> 01:24:44,800
Speaker 2: to come free after this year at the defensive end

1599
01:24:44,840 --> 01:24:48,880
Speaker 2: position are Shack Lawson and aj Epenessa. They would still

1600
01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:52,600
Speaker 2: have Rousseau under contract, bash Him under contract, Vaughan under contract.

1601
01:24:53,120 --> 01:24:55,680
Speaker 6: So yeah, I mean, we'll have to see how it

1602
01:24:55,680 --> 01:24:56,120
Speaker 6: shakes out.

1603
01:24:56,160 --> 01:24:58,360
Speaker 2: I think Chase Young's gonna have a monster season this year,

1604
01:24:58,560 --> 01:25:00,320
Speaker 2: and he's going to want to because he knows he's

1605
01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:02,400
Speaker 2: playing for his next contract now.

1606
01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:04,679
Speaker 6: And it's just a matter of.

1607
01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:08,800
Speaker 2: If he has a monster season, he's going to get

1608
01:25:09,160 --> 01:25:12,680
Speaker 2: top ten franchise player caliber money. And I don't know

1609
01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:15,400
Speaker 2: if the Bills are in position to acquire a player

1610
01:25:15,479 --> 01:25:18,960
Speaker 2: like that knowing they're still gonna be paying Vaughn. That's

1611
01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:21,240
Speaker 2: what I think stands in the way, maybe more than

1612
01:25:21,280 --> 01:25:24,439
Speaker 2: anything else, because that's when Vaugh's contract gets even bigger.

1613
01:25:24,960 --> 01:25:28,280
Speaker 2: So it would be great to have him and he

1614
01:25:28,280 --> 01:25:31,200
Speaker 2: would be a fit, but I just don't see it.

1615
01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:32,400
Speaker 6: In the cards for them.

1616
01:25:32,640 --> 01:25:36,200
Speaker 2: From lifelong fan, what are the chances that the Bills

1617
01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:39,519
Speaker 2: pick up a top free agent receiver if you're talking

1618
01:25:39,520 --> 01:25:43,040
Speaker 2: about this offseason, I would say it's pretty remote, at

1619
01:25:43,120 --> 01:25:46,840
Speaker 2: least right now, because the Bills don't have a lot

1620
01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:49,599
Speaker 2: of cap space to work with. Now. We were talking

1621
01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:51,840
Speaker 2: at the top of the show about Devonte Adams. That's

1622
01:25:51,880 --> 01:25:55,320
Speaker 2: a guy who's six million in base salary. That's something

1623
01:25:55,320 --> 01:25:57,439
Speaker 2: that you could move some money around and make it

1624
01:25:57,520 --> 01:26:01,280
Speaker 2: work if he became available. We know he's a little

1625
01:26:01,320 --> 01:26:04,800
Speaker 2: disgruntled with how things are going and what the plan

1626
01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:07,760
Speaker 2: is offensively in Las Vegas with the Raiders the team

1627
01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:12,680
Speaker 2: he plays for now. So is it worth kicking the

1628
01:26:12,680 --> 01:26:16,080
Speaker 2: tires on that guy? Hell yeah it is, And he's.

1629
01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:16,960
Speaker 6: Ad an affordable number.

1630
01:26:17,000 --> 01:26:20,800
Speaker 2: The problem is, as we said earlier, it's on the

1631
01:26:20,880 --> 01:26:24,120
Speaker 2: Raiders side of the ledger here, because the cap hit

1632
01:26:24,160 --> 01:26:26,280
Speaker 2: would be thirty one million this year twenty four and

1633
01:26:26,320 --> 01:26:29,000
Speaker 2: a half next year. To not have him on the

1634
01:26:29,080 --> 01:26:32,320
Speaker 2: roster and eat that kind of cap, that's a lot

1635
01:26:32,360 --> 01:26:35,960
Speaker 2: to take on to not have a guy, even if

1636
01:26:35,960 --> 01:26:40,240
Speaker 2: you're getting really good draft compensation or a player in return,

1637
01:26:41,439 --> 01:26:43,320
Speaker 2: you got to pay for that player too as he

1638
01:26:43,360 --> 01:26:46,080
Speaker 2: comes to you. So I just think with where the

1639
01:26:46,160 --> 01:26:50,680
Speaker 2: Raiders are fiscally, it doesn't make sense for them as

1640
01:26:50,760 --> 01:26:52,720
Speaker 2: much as it might make sense for whoever gets him.

1641
01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:53,720
Speaker 2: That's the problem.

1642
01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:56,679
Speaker 4: I think if the Bills want to add another veteran

1643
01:26:56,680 --> 01:26:58,439
Speaker 4: wide receiver, it's going to have to be for the

1644
01:26:58,560 --> 01:27:01,559
Speaker 4: right number. That number is not a big number. We

1645
01:27:01,680 --> 01:27:05,040
Speaker 4: know that Brandon Bean has talked about that. You look

1646
01:27:05,080 --> 01:27:07,960
Speaker 4: at guys like Vaughn and Josh and Steph and some

1647
01:27:08,080 --> 01:27:10,680
Speaker 4: other players on this roster who are getting paid big

1648
01:27:10,720 --> 01:27:12,920
Speaker 4: time money, and we'll continue to get paid big time

1649
01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:16,320
Speaker 4: money in the coming seasons, and you have to make

1650
01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:19,120
Speaker 4: sure it fits. And Brandon Bean is a CAB genius

1651
01:27:19,160 --> 01:27:22,880
Speaker 4: and a CAB guru for many reasons because he's been

1652
01:27:22,880 --> 01:27:25,000
Speaker 4: able to make it work. But I don't know if

1653
01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:28,519
Speaker 4: he can make a player with a big salary or

1654
01:27:29,400 --> 01:27:31,280
Speaker 4: who wants a lot of money be able to make

1655
01:27:31,320 --> 01:27:34,120
Speaker 4: that work. Coming alongside a team who's already playing paying

1656
01:27:34,520 --> 01:27:37,240
Speaker 4: several players at a high rate. That's what happens when

1657
01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:39,640
Speaker 4: you have guys like Josh Allen and Von Miller on

1658
01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:40,240
Speaker 4: your team.

1659
01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:42,519
Speaker 2: Break time for us here, Maddy and I wrap it

1660
01:27:42,600 --> 01:27:44,760
Speaker 2: up with some final questions from the mail bag.

1661
01:27:44,840 --> 01:27:45,960
Speaker 6: Next here on One Bill's Live.

1662
01:27:46,000 --> 01:28:01,400
Speaker 3: Stay tune all right?

1663
01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:03,040
Speaker 2: What a final segment here on One Bill's Live on

1664
01:28:03,080 --> 01:28:06,439
Speaker 2: a Friday, Chris Brammati lab with you back to the

1665
01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:10,920
Speaker 2: mail bag, where we have Bill asking which undrafted rookie

1666
01:28:10,920 --> 01:28:14,200
Speaker 2: free agent, if any, has the best pathway to at

1667
01:28:14,280 --> 01:28:15,760
Speaker 2: least the practice squad.

1668
01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:17,360
Speaker 6: If not the fifty three. I think the fifty three

1669
01:28:17,439 --> 01:28:18,560
Speaker 6: would be pretty.

1670
01:28:18,280 --> 01:28:20,920
Speaker 2: Challenging because it's a very deep roster. I think it's

1671
01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:22,240
Speaker 2: going to be a challenge even for some of the

1672
01:28:22,320 --> 01:28:24,080
Speaker 2: draft choices to make the roster.

1673
01:28:24,880 --> 01:28:26,120
Speaker 6: But I think if you have to.

1674
01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:31,240
Speaker 2: Lay odds, so to speak, I think anybody that's an

1675
01:28:31,240 --> 01:28:34,280
Speaker 2: offensive tackle that shows some kind of promise can find

1676
01:28:34,320 --> 01:28:35,920
Speaker 2: their way onto a practice squad.

1677
01:28:36,520 --> 01:28:38,240
Speaker 6: And I think defensive tackle.

1678
01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:41,479
Speaker 2: Could be a position that could be beneficial in light

1679
01:28:41,520 --> 01:28:43,519
Speaker 2: of what Manny and I were just talking about last segment,

1680
01:28:44,040 --> 01:28:47,080
Speaker 2: you know, with roster or with contracts coming up at

1681
01:28:47,080 --> 01:28:49,799
Speaker 2: the end of the year, all expiring at that position.

1682
01:28:49,880 --> 01:28:55,719
Speaker 2: So somebody like Tarren Vincent, you know, the defensive tackle

1683
01:28:55,760 --> 01:28:58,400
Speaker 2: from Ohio State, if he shows well in camp, has

1684
01:28:58,439 --> 01:29:00,160
Speaker 2: a good preseason, he could find his way on to

1685
01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:02,160
Speaker 2: the practice squad. And then the two tackles, the kid

1686
01:29:02,160 --> 01:29:06,479
Speaker 2: from East Carolina, Noah Henderson and Richard Guriage from Florida,

1687
01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:08,479
Speaker 2: So those would be my guys.

1688
01:29:08,640 --> 01:29:11,680
Speaker 4: I think DJ Dale, the defensive tackle out of Alabama,

1689
01:29:11,720 --> 01:29:13,920
Speaker 4: is another guy to watch for, just because he played

1690
01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:17,240
Speaker 4: at Alabama and he did play in a lot of games,

1691
01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:20,200
Speaker 4: so somebody will looked too as well.

1692
01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:23,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, big run stuffer guy, good character background on him too.

1693
01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:25,479
Speaker 6: That is it for us.

1694
01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:28,439
Speaker 2: On a Friday, stay dry out there as the rain's

1695
01:29:28,479 --> 01:29:30,920
Speaker 2: already fallen here in Western New York. Madny and I

1696
01:29:30,960 --> 01:29:34,840
Speaker 2: will be back to see you on Monday, same bad time,

1697
01:29:35,400 --> 01:29:43,600
Speaker 2: same bad channel. We'll see it one
