Speaker 1: I unheard of going on. This is like we keep

8
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: counting down. It's like counting up. I guess three oh six,

9
00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: three hundred and six days he was keeping a running

10
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: happened city the last time back since this, I'm like

11
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: a dog with a bone. Three hundred and six days

12
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 1: since Buffalo had a temperature temperature lower than twenty degrees.

13
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 2: It's a long stretch, longest ever.

14
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's longest in recorded history. It's you know, the

15
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: apocalypse is upon us.

16
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's happening. It might be a stretch,

17
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 2: but players are on the practice field and we should

18
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 2: just get right into Bill's practice updates, which are presented

19
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 2: by Leecom. You're Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. Still

20
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 2: have a few players, you know in Red Non Contact

21
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 2: Jersey's Micah Hyde Ty Johnson Jamar Hamlin, who came out

22
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: of last week's game with a shoulder injur He popped

23
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 2: up on the injury report yesterday, so that's really the

24
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: only update there. Coach said everybody would be participating in

25
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 2: some capacity at the walk through Wednesday. We'll wait for

26
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 2: the injury report to come out today to see if

27
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 2: anybody will is still operating in a limited capacity. But

28
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 2: you know, it's a lengthy list, and you know, some

29
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 2: guys come around by the end of the week and

30
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 2: they're good to go. Other guys maybe a little bit

31
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 2: more of a question mark. So we'll see what.

32
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Thursday injury report some of them, Like there's

33
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 1: a lot of guys. There's five guys listened on the

34
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: injury report that were full participants and they're just you know,

35
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: they're practicing, so they're gonna they're I don't know if

36
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: they're in danger of not playing, but they're still listed

37
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: on the injury report. Then you've got five guys that

38
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: were limited, like you said, and then Vaughan and Leonard

39
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 1: Floyd did not participate because they're old. But yeah, it's

40
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: not as bad as we've seen it. Let me just

41
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 1: say that.

42
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 2: And then a small bit of roster news. Defensive end

43
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: Cameron Klein, who was on practice squad injured reserve, has

44
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: been reinstated to the practice squad, so he's healthy again

45
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 2: as he was rehabbing from an injury. Cornerback Herb Miller

46
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 2: was released from the practice squad to make room for

47
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 2: kleinb flind out a nice training camp here all the

48
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 2: way back in the summer. It's been a minute, and

49
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 2: then he got an injury early in the season. But

50
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 2: he's back now, so good job by him working his

51
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 2: way back. Some interesting news concerning the Patriots came out

52
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 2: late yesterday. Ramandre Stevenson put on injured reserve. He's missed

53
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 2: the last few games and it's been mostly Zeke Elliott

54
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 2: as the primary back for the Patriots the last few games.

55
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 2: But they've completely shut Romandre Stevenson down. So that is

56
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 2: yet another change that the Bills. We'll see in the

57
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 2: Patriots this week, which is in stark contrast to the

58
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: team they saw back in Week seven. A new quarterback,

59
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 2: new primary running back. There's some other pieces that are

60
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 2: new as well, so it's not going to be nearly

61
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 2: the same team that they faced back in Week seven.

62
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. Hunter Henry is dragging around a knee injury that

63
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: he's limited by. That the new defensive back Austin the

64
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: corner who was a Bill seventh round draft pick, is

65
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: now listed as a starter, yeah for the Patriots.

66
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 2: And then they just signed a corner this morning or

67
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 2: claimed one off waivers from the Cardinals, Marco Wilson as

68
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 2: a corner that got claimed. I can't imagine he's going

69
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 2: to have a sizable role this week just getting there today.

70
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 2: But that's another addition to their roster because they are

71
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 2: very shorthanded on the back end right now. Among the

72
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 2: players in danger of, you know, perhaps not getting to

73
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 2: the game on Sunday, Jalen Mills, their one starting safety,

74
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 2: he's got a concussion. He remains in the protocol. He

75
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 2: did not practice for the Patriots yesterday. And then Jabrill

76
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 2: Peppers has a hamstring injury, another one of their top

77
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 2: three safeties because they play a lot of three safety defense,

78
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 2: and he did not practice yesterday either. Their offensive tackle

79
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 2: Trent Brown didn't practice, but that was due to illness.

80
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 2: It's not anticipated he's going to be sick the entire week.

81
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 2: So and then you know they have a typical laundry

82
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 2: list of limited participants. Most of those players typically play

83
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 2: for the Patriots come the end of the week, So

84
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 2: that's kind of your practice update at this point in time.

85
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 2: We also want to tell you this week's game against

86
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 2: the Patriots is presented by Ticketmaster, the official ticket marketplace

87
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 2: of the NFL. The other note that came out, Eric Washington,

88
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 2: assistant head coach and defensive line coach, was asked about

89
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 2: de Kwon Jones today. Now, he was a full participant

90
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 2: in practice yesterday. We're anticipating the same today barring any

91
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 2: kind of setback. But he still remains on the injured

92
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 2: reserve list. He is not yet on the active roster

93
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 2: and the Bills are at fifty three players right now,

94
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 2: so you know they're gonna have if they feel he

95
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 2: is fit enough to return to the lineup and play

96
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 2: this week, they have to make a move, as we know,

97
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 2: got to make room for him.

98
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: And Brown and I were sitting there talking about this.

99
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: I think both of us we didn't talk at this

100
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: specific thing, but I think both of us feel like

101
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 1: if he's ready, they're gonna play him. So they're gonna

102
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 1: make that move, right. I think they want day Quon

103
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,679
Speaker 1: on the field. So it's not like they they feel

104
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: like they're good to go or you know, and like

105
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 1: they've gotten good play, you know, from the rest of

106
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 1: the defensive tackles. But Daykon has been as good as

107
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 1: anybody down inside when he was playing this season, and

108
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: he's an excellent player, big body. Dude to me, if

109
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 1: he's ready, he's in, and they will make that move.

110
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 3: Now.

111
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: If he's not, they won't, I get it. But if

112
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: he's a full participant yesterday, at full participant today, no setbacks. Man,

113
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: oh man, I'd be hard pressed not to plug him in.

114
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 1: That's me and you talking because we're sitting out here.

115
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 1: We have all this angst of the ignorance of being

116
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 1: outside the locker room. We don't know the ins and

117
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: outs of how it goes into what the feeling is

118
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: in there. But man from out here, please activate that

119
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 1: dude because he's They've been good without him, and don't

120
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: get me wrong, but he is a good player that

121
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: has fought hard to get back. I'm thinking that guy's

122
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: in if he's able.

123
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,679
Speaker 2: Also on the show today, as we have every week,

124
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,360

Speaker 2: we'll have comment from the players at the post practice podium,

129
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 2: as we'll have James Cook, Gabe Davis, Tourel, Bernard at

Speaker 2: here after practice as well, So I look forward to

133
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 2: that time.

134
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 1: He's just gonna be a first, isn't it. Do we

135
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: have him when he was drafted?

136
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 2: No, he did not, as you know, you know, the

137
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 2: coaching staff doesn't like to over expose rookiess media interviews

138
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 2: and stuff, kind of let them find their footing, get

139
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 2: settled in.

140
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: It is week seventeen though, Yes, yeah, he's yeah, that's

141
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: essentially not a rookie anymore to college seasons. Yeah right right,

142
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, he's got to feel pretty comfortable, and I'm yeah,

143
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: he seems like the kind of guy that can handle

144
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: one more thing in his way, So we promise we

145
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,640

Speaker 2: dilemma because other parts of your life are getting in

157
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 2: the way of that. Be it family, parties, work, what

158
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 2: have you. Steve and I are here to assist. As

159
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,719
Speaker 2: a matter of fact, we assisted somebody. You know, I

160
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 2: wonder if she'll call back in, But she had a

161
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 2: birthday party at a nursing home while the Bills game

162
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 2: was going to be on Saturday night.

163
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: Right, Our advice was to an out of the nursing home.

164
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 2: And you know, and it was a streaming game, as

165
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 2: we know, it was on Peacock out of the Buffalo market.

166
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 2: So yeah, that really a lot of hurdles to clear.

167
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: That streaming thing is at the point where it really

168
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: throws people if they get one that it can't get

169
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: otherwise out of market. Obviously everybody else Channel two here

170
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,319
Speaker 1: in town, everybody got it. But man oh man, people

171
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: are up in arms over They're like, we got to go.

172
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: And the best thing to do if you really get

173
00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: into a tight and the game's coming on, you don't

174
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: have to go to a bar. Yeah, whether you drink

175
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: or not, go to a bar and order order club

176
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: soda and water something and tip your server. Right. Well,

177
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: you got play it. Yeah, you got to, you know,

178
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 1: make it worth there. So but you got to do

179
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: something if if that's the thing, the last resort is

180
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: to go someplace where you know they're going to.

181
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 4: Have it on.

182
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a real challenge last weekend for a

183
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 2: lot of people. If you have a similar challenge here

184
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 2: on New Year's weekend, let's not forget. I know, the

185
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 2: Bills game is a one o'clock kick, thankfully, but it

186
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 2: is still New Year's Eve, so there might be some

187
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,959
Speaker 2: things you're navigating there. You know that you got to

188
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 2: work around to make sure you still get your football

189
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 2: viewing pleasure this weekend. So if you have a problem,

190
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 2: give us a call. Eight O three oh five fifteen,

191
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 2: and would be happy to help you out. Anything else

192
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 2: under the sun on the Bills or this upcoming weekend,

193
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 2: some playoff implications, whatever it is, feel free to give

194
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 2: us a ring, be happy to help you out there.

195
00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 2: We still see that, you know you look at the

196
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 2: rest of the landscape in the AFC. We know that

197
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 2: the Bills still need to win and get some help

198
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 2: to clinch a playoff berth this week need to a

199
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 2: combination of two out of three teams playing this weekend

200
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 2: need to lose, and the Bills need to win for

201
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 2: them to qualify for the postseason. And obviously, if the

202
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 2: division is to still be in play come Week eighteen,

203
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 2: the Dolphins have to lose this week and the Bills

204
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 2: have to win because that would then make Week eighteen

205
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:40,439
Speaker 2: the ultimate contest. Certainly add some high stakes drama. Let's

206
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 2: go to the game.

207
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, perfect case scenario, of course, is the Bills went

208
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: out the Dolphins lose out right, But I mean what

209
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: it feels so to me, and I'm an old guy,

210
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: and people there there's a generation out there like me

211
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,199
Speaker 1: who remembers this man. This was Dan Marino, Jim Kelly go.

212
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: You know when Miami was up here. Early in the season,

213
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,199
Speaker 1: I saw Jim and I said, I'm gonna go over

214
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: and say so because I've become I worked with Dan

215
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: and CBS, so I said, let's get so we went

216
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: over and talked to It was me and Jim and

217
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: Dance standing on the sidelines here in high Mark and

218
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: those you know, the three old codgers over there. This

219
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,319
Speaker 1: this rivalry, to me, is is back big time. Not

220
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: just this show I it is. It is a rival

221
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 1: because of where the Patriots are and where the Jets

222
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 1: are right now. Obviously these two are the two teams

223
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: standing and they're both going to be in the playoffs.

224
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: It looks to me like what a game that's going

225
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: to be next week. I don't want to get out

226
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 1: ahead of ourselves, but we may put the if if

227
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 1: the Bills roll the New England Patriots, we may be

228
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 1: onto Miami on Monday morning. You know, I mean, it's

229
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: let's go.

230
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 4: Yeah.

231
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: That's the kind of magnitude of this game. And I

232
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 1: can't I can't stop thinking about it. Yeah, I know,

233
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: gotta hold your water. The schedules getting in my way.

234
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's pretty wild. Because the Bills have won

235
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 2: nine of their last ten games against Miami. Their only

236
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 2: loss was the Sauna game in Week three last.

237
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: Year, and yeah, they almost won that. If Isaiah mackenzie

238
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,839
Speaker 1: puts his foot in the ground, runs up, gets down,

239
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: or goes out of bound spots, we couldn't get out

240
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: of bounds. Yeah, but if yeah, they could have got

241
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,319
Speaker 1: up spiked that ball and Presto Chaninjo, that's a different story.

242
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 4: Whatever.

243
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 2: We know that Bills fans will be keeping an eye

244
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 2: on that Miami Baltimore game for sure, And in addition

245
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,599
Speaker 2: to how the game plays out, whether Jalen Waddle is

246
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 2: even playing because he has a high ankle spring, so

247
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 2: it'll be interesting to see if he dresses for that

248
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 2: game or if they rest him for Week eighteen or

249
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 2: maybe just rest him until the playoffs. You know, you

250
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 2: the Dolphins are know they're going to the postseason. It's

251
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 2: an interesting decision they have to make there, like is

252
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 2: it worth hurrying him back to maybe win another game

253
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 2: or two or you know you're going to the postseason already.

254
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 2: I realize your seating is at stake here.

255
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:18,719
Speaker 1: That's the thing.

256
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 2: What would you rather have him for the postseason fully

257
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 2: healthy or play him the next two weeks and maybe

258
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 2: not have him at all. Right, I think it's worse.

259
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: I know when it comes down to the seating and

260
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: what you're doing, and plus it comes down to the

261
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: player himself. Is he ready is he not? Is he

262
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 1: gonna be you know, is he going to hamper him

263
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: hamper him in the playoffs? Is it gonna you know,

264
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 1: cost you a playoff game? You can't have that. You

265
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: look at this, Miami's the two, Buffalo's the six. This

266
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 1: just in uh, the six would play the three, which

267
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 1: Buffalo would go to Kansas City right now? So what

268
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: happens if Miami gets in there and they if they lose,

269
00:14:55,760 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: they get Indianapolis and Gardner Minshew, they win, they get

270
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: Josh Allen Buffalo.

271
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, you wonder if they had you their bets

272
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 2: a little bit.

273
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 1: There's something to be said for winning a playoff game.

274
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: The Bills have done it three years and they're the

275
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: only team that them and the Chiefs are only with

276
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: teams that have done it three years in a row. Right,

277
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard to do and it certainly gives

278
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 1: a sense of security to people inside the coaching staff,

279
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: the front office staff, the scouting staff. Winning playoff games

280
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 1: is a big deal and it's kind of gone by

281
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: the wayside here and Buffalo, with the success they've had

282
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: with Josh, teams would cut off their little finger to

283
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: win a playoff game. So you're thinking about Miami and

284
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: they get into this game against now, certainly they're going

285
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: to try and win out because if they went out,

286
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: they stay the two seed. But Buffalo wins up, you know,

287
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 1: and if Cleveland loses out, then you know, what do

288
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: you do?

289
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 2: Well, wait a second, if Miami wins out, you're talking

290
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 2: about Miami. Yeah, they win out, they may be the

291
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 2: ones right hand Baltimore. Can they catch Baltimore. They're only

292
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 2: a game back, their.

293
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: Game back, they would even with Baltimore right now, they

294
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: would be seven and they would take the lead. Yeah,

295
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 1: because Baltimore.

296
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 2: The one seat is still in play for that that's

297
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 2: right now this week, which would get them a bye,

298
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 2: which gets Wattle an extra week to rest the ankle.

299
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 1: But if they get into Week eighteen with the one

300
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: seed at stake, they got to go hard against Buffalo

301
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: to get the bye week and all that goes, you know,

302
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: and then yeah, I mean think about it.

303
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 2: There's a lot for them to kind of weigh out

304
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 2: Wattle's condition. Can he make it worse? Do we let

305
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 2: him rest for an extra week, have him ready to

306
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 2: roll Week eighteen or first round of the playoffs? Whatever,

307
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 2: They've got some decisions to make this answers.

308
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I'm thinking there's gonna be a ton of

309
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: scenarios at play, and it's not until late in the

310
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 1: weekend this next weekend where you're gonna know exactly how

311
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 1: it's gonna fall. Or do we even know when they

312
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: kick off this game? It's Miami game.

313
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 2: I didn't look yet, but we can check it out

314
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 2: real quick. You'd look for that. In the meantime, I'm

315
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 2: going to go to the phones at eight oh three

316
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 2: h five fifty and joining us with an update from

317
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 2: last week. The very person we were talking about, Steve.

318
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 2: It's Ali out in Wyoming.

319
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: Ali.

320
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 2: How did you make out last weekend with the Peacock game.

321
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 5: Well, we we were kind of fifty fifty your advice.

322
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 5: My dad really appreciated your advice because he's kind of

323
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,879
Speaker 5: the other die hard. But we got shut down on

324
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 5: bringing the laptop because that was going to be a

325
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 5: party fole. So I ended up having to watch the

326
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 5: score with my dad on the on the Bills app

327
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 5: like the kicker. Ye, but I will tell you what

328
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 5: worked is my mom and my sister and my dad

329
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 5: and I all wore our Bill stuff. And so then

330
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 5: the family was like, well, how's the game, and we said, well,

331
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 5: it's almost halftime, and they said, well, you guys, get

332
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 5: out of here and go enjoy the game. So our

333
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,919
Speaker 5: kind of critical mass of having all of us, you know,

334
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 5: dearly wondering what was happening ended up getting us, you know, removed,

335
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 5: not forcefubly removed, but allowed to leave the party without

336
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,679
Speaker 5: it being in poor taste. So we got to go

337
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 5: watch the second half and it seemed like we got

338
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,199
Speaker 5: a lot of heart attacks in the second half. So

339
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 5: we got our full fill of Bill's Football League.

340
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that was good power and numbers well down

341
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 2: to like.

342
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,120
Speaker 1: The East party foul said, I gotta use that. You're

343
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: right though, I'm glad and the fact that you did

344
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: it tastefully and with great and you got you got

345
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 1: some grace from the from the party givers. That's good. Congratulate.

346
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 1: I'm glad you got to watch the second half, and

347
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 1: believe me, the second half was You're right, it was

348
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 1: a roller coaster for all of us.

349
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 5: It was a barn burner. Man oh man, man oh man.

350
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 5: So anyways, we're just going to say thank you and

351
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 5: and we made it out without a party foul. And

352
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,360
Speaker 5: I hope you guys have a happy New Year.

353
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 2: All right, you too, Ali, thanks for checking back in

354
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 2: with us. All right, all right, so there we go.

355
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 2: I wasn't perfectly, it didn't play out perfectly, but it passed.

356
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 2: It passed. I think I think our advice passed.

357
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 1: They got they got a full half of uninterrupted. Yeah, yeah,

358
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: that was good.

359
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 2: And they still you know, went to the party of

360
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 2: their obligations.

361
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 1: Yes, but that was clever.

362
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 2: That's everybody's showing up in Bill's Jersey's powering numbers man.

363
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 1: That's right.

364
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, Oh, how how did the game turn out? Well,

365
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,440
Speaker 2: they're still playing right now, they're.

366
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: Playing right now. We're here halftime, like, oh, you guys,

367
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: just go ahead and to watch that. It's all that

368
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,679
Speaker 1: was a tremendous well played. That's tremendous.

369
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,480
Speaker 2: Let's go to Jim in Jamestown next. What do you

370
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 2: got for us? Jim?

371
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 6: All right, guys, Chris and Steve, who do you think

372
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 6: win the MVP this year?

373
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: Josh Allen.

374
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 2: Well, if you're going strictly quarterbacks, yes, I think Christian

375
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,879
Speaker 2: McCaffrey has to say in that too. In my opinion, Yeah,

376
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 2: I mean he's got.

377
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 6: Over thirteen Mark Jason Slout either, Yeah he's not.

378
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: But I'll say this, you put and I'm not saying

379
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 1: a statistical thing because Baltimore's won a ton of games

380
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 1: and they may be the one seed, so yeah, it

381
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 1: could happen that way. But Buffalo Josh has more touchdowns.

382
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: He's got a lot more touchdowns and a few more

383
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 1: and a few more turnovers. His completion percentages higher, his

384
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:20,400
Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns are higher, his quarterback rating is higher. He

385
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 1: gave his team and the four of the six losses

386
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: they've sustained this year, Josh actively gave the team the

387
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 1: lead with the two inside the two minute warning. They

388
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 1: can only hold off you know, defensively, they couldn't get

389
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:39,360
Speaker 1: enough done to win them. And Lamar accounts for over half,

390
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: like fifty two percent of Baltimore's touchdowns, Josh Allen accounts

391
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: for eighty three percent of his team's touchdowns. I think

392
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 1: Josh is more valuable.

393
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,360
Speaker 2: I would do I would say it should be Josh McCaffrey,

394
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 2: maybe Tyreek, because without Tyreek, that team is completely.

395
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: And Lamar's great And I'm not saying Lamar's bad. He's great.

396
00:20:59,400 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 4: Man.

397
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 1: Let me tell you he's gonna I think, and I

398
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 1: sold this to Brownie before we came on. I think

399
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: Lamar is gonna do to Miami exactly what Josh Allen

400
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 1: does to Miami. His athleticism wins the day against that team,

401
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 1: play the second reaction, play kills those guys, and I

402
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 1: think that's what's gonna do it for Baltimore this week.

403
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, I think Josh should win out. He

404
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: probably won't because the team's only gonna win eleven games hopefully.

405
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 2: Once they went to six and six, I thought, yeah,

406
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 2: Josh could be Superman the rest of the season and

407
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 2: it still wouldn't matter. Yeah, I think right off teams

408
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 2: that are straining to get into the postseasons like, well,

409
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 2: how valuable can he be if you can only manage

410
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 2: eleven wins?

411
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 4: Right?

412
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 2: Like, that's the argument against it that people throw out there.

413
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 2: So once that happened, I was like, well.

414
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: I'll say this too. You don't see the Bills getting

415
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: beat by how much did the what did Baltimore do

416
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 1: to San Francisco thirty to thirteen. Yeah, yeah, you don't

417
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: beat MVPs by that much. Josh's lost one score games

418
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,200
Speaker 1: and like I said, he gave actively gave the team

419
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: the lead and for their losses with less than two

420
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 1: minutes to.

421
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 2: Go, one of those being New England back in week.

422
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think Josh is the MVP.

423
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,120
Speaker 2: Let's go back to the phones and to Paul in Arizona.

424
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 1: What do you got for us?

425
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 2: Paul?

426
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 6: How you doing? Guys?

427
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 4: Good? Hey?

428
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 6: I had called the Relationship hotline earlier about possibly missing

429
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 6: the big Chris Family Christmas Eve celebration due to my

430
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 6: son and I and my wife attending the game in LA,

431
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 6: and Chris had wanted an update. So here's the update.

432
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 7: The game was awesome, SOFI Stadium is something else. And

433
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 7: we flew back into town on Christmas Eve around noon,

434
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,959
Speaker 7: and we had to pick the dog up from the

435
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 7: border and that had not been a good experience. Our

436
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:04,400
Speaker 7: dog just recently had its last I removed due to glaucoma.

437
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,360
Speaker 7: So he actually came through my mother in law as

438
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 7: a dog lover, so I stayed at home. I couldn't

439
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 7: just leave the dog home after being gone for three

440
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 7: days and everything turned out great. My wife said it's

441
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 7: the second best sporting event she had ever attended.

442
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 2: Wow, la oh, I'm glad that all worked.

443
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 1: Awesome, very nice. Yeah, it's it's yeah. The key to

444
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 1: all this, the general rule has been you got to

445
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 1: plan way ahead and get out in front of it.

446
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 1: The problem is particularly like this game we were talking

447
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 1: about and I mentioned it a moment ago, and Brownie said,

448
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 1: check it out. Uh, the Bills, Dolphins, Broncos, Raiders, Jets, Patriots, Falcon,

449
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 1: Saints game, Rams, Niners game, Eagles, New York game, Jaguars, Titans,

450
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 1: and Cowboys Commanders. All those games are TBD. Every game

451
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 1: this Week seventeen, every single game on the on the schedule,

452
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 1: I'd looked at they're all here, They're all TBD.

453
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 2: Yeah for Week eighteen.

454
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,160
Speaker 1: Week eighteen is not set in stone. We have no

455
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 1: idea who is going. In fact, there's no Thursday game, right, Yeah.

456
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,439
Speaker 1: They stop those, They stopped the weekend Thursday game. So

457
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: we don't know when any single game in the NFL

458
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,479
Speaker 1: is going to happen on Week eighteen. In two weeks.

459
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think the you only have to give

460
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 2: less than a week notice. Now it used to be

461
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 2: twelve days notice and they reduce that. So we'll probably

462
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 2: find out next Monday.

463
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,479
Speaker 1: I would think you'll probably start finding Sunday night. Sunday night. Yeah,

464
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:44,959
Speaker 1: after some of the results come in.

465
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go to Scott in Buffalo next, what do

466
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 2: you got Scott?

467
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:50,120
Speaker 4: Hey, how's there going?

468
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 8: Guys? So I guess this is kind of I have

469
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 8: an answer, and it's kind of just, you know, suck

470
00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 8: it up and go to my dilemma. So it's gonna

471
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 8: be a little winded. I apologize. But so last year

472
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 8: I ended up redoing my basement, turned it into my

473
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 8: nan cave, absolutely gorgeous. Spent about ten fifteen thousand dollars

474
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 8: in there. I ended up building a Jumbo Tron above

475
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,360
Speaker 8: my pool table. It's kind of the place to be

476
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 8: for my whole family. Got about nine TVs down there.

477
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 8: I'm a huge fantasy football guy, huge gambler. Loved the

478
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 8: Buffalo Bills, and that's the big one. Is very very

479
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 8: skeptical on where I watch my games, very superstitious, kind

480
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 8: of like all the rest of us Bills fans. But

481
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 8: every year around Week nine is my niece's birthday party,

482
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 8: and my sister did the same thing, and her garage

483
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,360
Speaker 8: kind of set up a she shed same thing as

484
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 8: about three four TVs in there. So it's not like

485
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 8: I've missed any games, but every year, you know, she

486
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 8: expected me to be there for my niece's birthday party,

487
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 8: and this year I missed it again along with the

488
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,399
Speaker 8: last two years, and she's kind of getting set.

489
00:25:59,320 --> 00:25:59,639
Speaker 1: Up with it.

490
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 8: I don't know what to do about my situation, especially

491
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 8: seeing that I'm just very very superstitious about where I'm

492
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 8: watching the game. I've never watched a game anywhere else

493
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 8: beside my home in the last six seven years. Yeah,

494
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 8: so it's kind of a dilemma.

495
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do. Here's what you do, Scott.

496
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 1: You got to get your mind around in the off season.

497
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,880
Speaker 1: You got to get your mind around making your niece's

498
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: birthday celebration part of your superstition. You have to go

499
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:31,199
Speaker 1: to her birthday party otherwise the team will stink. So

500
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: you have to get your mind around making that that

501
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,159
Speaker 1: that one game of year is the one game you

502
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 1: have to miss at your house, at your house and go.

503
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 1: So that's you gotta get your spend this next off

504
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 1: season doing it. Spend the next off season.

505
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 8: That's genius. That's literally I've never even thought of it

506
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 8: that way, And that's uh. You guys are.

507
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 2: Your other your other option. Your other option is to

508
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 2: host your niece's birthday party at your house so you

509
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:00,959
Speaker 2: can still watch it.

510
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,360
Speaker 8: That was a big option. I'd recommended that the last

511
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,959
Speaker 8: two years. But that's her way of getting the family

512
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,919
Speaker 8: to the house altogether for a Bills game at her venue.

513
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 1: Got it, But you know what, that's what I would do.

514
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 1: Spend the whole off season getting your mind and starting

515
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: to ramp up and saying, it's superstit. You have to

516
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 1: miss one game and it's your niece's birthday and that's

517
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 1: part of your superstitious ritual.

518
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 8: I'm gonna go with it if you lose, though, I

519
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 8: might have to.

520
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 1: I get it.

521
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 9: I know.

522
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 1: The first year is a roll of the dice. I know.

523
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,400
Speaker 1: And you'll know, and believe me, you're gonna start looking

524
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,439
Speaker 1: at the schedule on that weekend too, right when it

525
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 1: comes out. You'll get it right. So start so start,

526
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: you know, right, start throwing the chicken bones in the

527

Speaker 1: you know, in the.

528
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:44,760

Speaker 2: Christmas with the kiddos we did.

545
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 9: Thank you so much for asking, gentlemen. I hope the

546
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 9: same to you and yours. And we are very much

547
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 9: excited for the final two regular season weeks of this

548
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 9: season and the start of the twenty twenty four year.

549
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 9: We can't wait for what's ahead.

550
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 2: Indeed, indeed, and we've got a guy in a very

551
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 2: big game that Bills fans will undoubtedly be washing topping

552
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 2: off your lineup this week.

553
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 9: Yeah, that's right, will the Bills fans They'll be watching

554
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 9: because don't these two games take place at the same time.

555
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 9: Of course, you're referring to Lamar Jackson, because if the

556
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 9: Ravens defeat the Dolphins, then the Bills defeat the Patriots,

557
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 9: then Week eighteen becomes an AFC East winner takes all matchup,

558
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 9: which I would imagine we get flex to that Sunday

559
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 9: night football window that the NFL loves to include something

560
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 9: with major playoff ramifications. Back to the fantasy side, Lamar

561
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 9: Rice at seventy nine hundred dollars, guys, probably a little

562
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 9: bit of a discount for Lamar Jackson because he played

563
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 9: on Monday. FanDuel sets their lineup pricing on Monday during

564
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 9: the day. Lamar GT's a bit of a bump off

565
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 9: the discount. Of course, this matchup one against the Dolphins

566
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 9: that have played better defense since the return of Jalen Ramsey,

567
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 9: which is logical, and also the LL has come against

568
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 9: inferior competition. The Dolphins have been on a stretch over

569
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 9: the past I don't know, seven or eight games they

570
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 9: have not faced other than the Cowboys this week, a

571
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 9: bunch of dominant offensive teams. Obviously the Baltimore Ravens can

572
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 9: be exactly that. So Lamar Jackson checks in at my

573
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 9: quarterback spot this week. But he is not the only

574
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 9: player I'm spending big on you.

575
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: No, you're not running back. You start with guy who's

576
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 1: in the MVP race, Christian McCaffrey.

577
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 2: Blowing the budget here an opportunity.

578
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: I've never seen you spend eleven grand on anybody that.

579
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 9: Tells you how OPPORTUNI to stick this one is here.

580
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:35,719
Speaker 9: I mean, much ridiculous value for Christian McCaffrey all season.

581
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 9: So think about what happened on Monday Night. Obviously, this game,

582
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 9: that the game that this team lost. Christian McCaffrey found

583
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 9: the end zone. That part. Obviously, people recall he played

584
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 9: one hundred percent of the snaps. You guys know how

585
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,719
Speaker 9: rare that is in today's NFL for running back. He

586
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 9: is not going to play one hundred percent of the

587
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 9: snaps on Sunday against the Commanders for a few reasons.

588
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 9: Elijah Mitchell is getting healthier. That helps, but more importantly,

589
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 9: the skin is going to be out of hand. In

590
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 9: my estimation, before the fourth quarter. So Christian McCaffrey maybe

591
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,479
Speaker 9: eating sunflower seeds on the sideline watching his defense and

592
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 9: the reserve offense get the job done. But if that happens,

593
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 9: it's because Christian McCaffrey probably had a massive, massive day.

594
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 9: The Commander's dead last in terms of yielding fantasy points

595
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 9: to opposing running backs, so cmced eleven thousand bucks. The

596
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 9: maximum price point is in the lineup as is a

597
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 9: familiar face to Buffalo Bills fans, Devin Singletary. Motor Singletary

598
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 9: has been very busy for the Texans of late. They're

599
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 9: expected to get c. J. Stroud back this week. That

600
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 9: helps the offense overall, and with Damian Piers becoming largely

601
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:46,480
Speaker 9: a non factor for Houston, this is a good spot

602
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 9: here for Devin Singletary. It's not that the Titans have

603
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 9: been a bad run defense for the past few years.

604
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 9: They've actually been a very good one. But no Jeffrey

605
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 9: Simmons their best player probably but certainly the best defensive

606
00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 9: players out for the year. They have struggled might in

607
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 9: this department as opposed to where they were in prior years,

608
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 9: so a good match up year from Motor singletary against

609
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 9: the Titans.

610
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 2: All right, wide receivers, you're going back to the Baltimore

611
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 2: Miami matchup to kick this thing off.

612
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 9: That's right our weekly stack. That's Zay Flowers from the

613
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 9: Baltimore Ravens, whose target share is just ridiculous found the

614
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 9: end zone last week on the coverage busts against the

615
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 9: forty nine ers, had over ten targets. Really busy player

616
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 9: for the Baltimore Ravens. And what's I think perhaps useful

617
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 9: about Zay beyond his talent, is that he can get

618
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 9: targets at the line of scrimmage, he can get targets downfield.

619
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 9: He's got great speeds, so obviously that allows him to

620
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 9: do a lot of different things against Miami. I don't

621
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 9: think he'll draw any sort of shadow from either of

622
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 9: the perimeter corners Jalen Ramsey and also Xavi and Howard.

623
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 9: So Zay Flowers, a guy who will play a lot

624
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 9: out of the slot, should be a busy man and

625
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 9: a good opportunity. And the next wide receiver is Rashid

626
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 9: Sheed for the New Orleans Saints, spending big on a

627
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 9: couple of other spots. I couldn't go to Chris o'lave,

628
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 9: who certainly would be a desirable piece to having your

629
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 9: lineups this week because no team has allowed more passing

630
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 9: yards than the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Saints play this weekend.

631
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 9: With Rashid chi Heed, he kind of is like the

632
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 9: built for daily fantasy type of wide receiver. He might

633
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 9: have as he's had last week three catches for close

634
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 9: to one hundred yards in a touchdown. He's got some

635
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 9: of the best speed in the NFL. He also might

636
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,600
Speaker 9: have one catch for seven yards. Anything is possible with

637
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 9: Rashid Shiheed. But in Bailey Fantasy, you're not getting points

638
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,520
Speaker 9: for finishing middle of the pack. You are getting money

639
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 9: for finding a way to strike it rich by finding

640
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 9: the diamond in the rough mixed with some guys that

641
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 9: are more certain like Christian McCaffrey. And I think Shiheed

642
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 9: is kind of that diamond in the rough potential.

643
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 1: And then Curtis Samuel for the Commanders. I mean, not

644
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 1: too many fantasy guys for the Commanders, but you're picking

645
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel in this spot.

646
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 9: Yeah, And this was one. This is one where I

647
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 9: was talking earlier about how you know, I think the

648
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 9: forty nine ers are going to be up big in

649
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 9: this game, and that will in turn allow the Commanders

650
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 9: to pass the ball a lot. And of course, Jacoby Brissett,

651
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 9: the new starting quarterback for Washington and Samuel had six

652
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 9: targets last week turned into just one catch. You know,

653
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 9: they got a lot of talent in that wide receiver

654
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 9: room in Washington with Terry McLaurin and Johan Dotson, and

655
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 9: somehow Curtis Samuel, also a talented guy, has wound up

656
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 9: becoming the most consistent of those three over the past

657
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 9: month and a half or so. So if this team

658
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 9: is down big, which I do forecast, they're going to

659
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 9: have to find a way to throw to catch up.

660
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,320
Speaker 9: That could be the case on Sunday.

661
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 2: And then at the tight end spot looks like a

662
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 2: little bit of a bargain pick. And this is a

663
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,799
Speaker 2: guy that's working with a backup quarterback. What was attractive here?

664
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 9: Yeah, Gerald Everett, who's playing with Easton Sick. Of course,

665
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 9: you saw these two gentlemen this past Saturday night, Oh Saturday, right,

666
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,400
Speaker 9: all the days have blended in during this time of

667
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 9: the year. But yes, yeah, Perald Effett, Yeah, you know,

668
00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:00,800
Speaker 9: good athletes, good after the catch. Fifty three hundred bucks. Guys,

669
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 9: I've spent big in a lot of other places already,

670
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 9: so I had to find a couple of values to

671
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,439
Speaker 9: round things out here. And you know, I don't really

672
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,880
Speaker 9: know what to make of this Broncos team right now, gentlemen.

673
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:16,720
Speaker 9: I think they're pretty good defensively, but making a quarterback change,

674
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 9: and you know, coming off of a tough loss couple

675
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 9: out of their last three games, don't exactly know what

676
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 9: to make of this Timber Denver team and Easton's dick

677
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 9: I think you guys would agree. Look, okay, this beast

678
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,359
Speaker 9: Saturday Night probably moved to football a little better than

679
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 9: I expected him to. So Gerald Everett could be one

680
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,840
Speaker 9: of the beneficiaries, especially if Keenan Allen remains out and

681
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 9: he did not practice yesterday because that lingering heel issue.

682
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: And this is this lineup now you round it out

683
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 1: in your flex spot with Chubb A. Hubbard for the

684
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers. This really is an exercise in getting some

685
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: surefire superstars in your lineup while trying to find the

686
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 1: guys who you think are in the perfect spot on

687
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 1: the perfect week.

688
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, in the case of Hubbard too, what you I

689
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 9: have going for you is that they played Jacksonville. And

690
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 9: if Jacksonville has to j. A. Bethard and not Trevor Lawrence,

691
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 9: which seems plausible right now, although Lawrence is going to

692
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:13,319
Speaker 9: practice in a limited capacity today. If it's Bethard and

693
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 9: not Lawrence, do you think this game is going to

694
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 9: be a runaway win for Jacksonville, a team that is

695
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 9: also struggling mightily of late. Meanwhile, you know Carolina plays

696
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 9: competitive defense, so they actually do keep games a little

697
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 9: bit closer than you might expect weekend and week out.

698
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,319
Speaker 9: Hubbard has been the much busier back as compared to

699
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 9: Miles Sanders of free agent signing. The team probably wishes

700
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 9: it could take our give back, I suppose, but Hubbard

701
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 9: to lead back. He checks in as my flex and

702
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 9: then at leads with just one spot left, which is

703
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 9: our defense, and two hundred bucks as well, which if

704
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:47,839
Speaker 9: there was anything that either of you did not get

705
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 9: for the holidays that you still want, you've got a

706
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:54,160
Speaker 9: couple hundred bucks to spend it on, and at least

707
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 9: with the defense, which is the Colts defense here, and

708
00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 9: the Colts is playing the Raiders.

709
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:00,359
Speaker 4: Now.

710
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 9: The salary is nice, it's four thousand bucks. It's a

711
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 9: cheap defense. But the Raiders, and I get part of

712
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:06,760
Speaker 9: it was part of the you know, the game flow,

713
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 9: but the zero passing completions in quarters two through four

714
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 9: last week, I mean, that's an almost unfathomable stat. I'm

715
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 9: sure you guys saw that game and watched it closely

716
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 9: on this day. As great of a win as it

717
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 9: was for Las Vegas, and it sure was. It was

718
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 9: because of the defense and the running games. A mere

719
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 9: White had one hundred and forty two rushing yards. The

720
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,719
Speaker 9: defense made Patrick Mahomes look perplexed all evening and had

721
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 9: him on the run all afternoon. I should say, And

722
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 9: if they're gonna win again, which is possible, it's going

723
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 9: to be because they do something similar on defense and

724
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 9: their offense. Spiders again, I think the Colts defense should

725
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 9: be pretty good this week against that Raiders struggling offense.

726
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 2: All right, That leaves us a field with Bill's Patriots

727
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:54,840
Speaker 2: here on Sunday one o'clock kick. Patriots a much different

728
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 2: team than the one they saw back in Week seven.

729
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 2: New quarterback no Ramandre Stevenson, who went on I are

730
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 2: last night they're even thinner than they were the last

731
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,280
Speaker 2: time at the cornerback position. They got a former seventh

732
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,359
Speaker 2: round draft choice in the spring of the Bills as

733
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 2: a starting corner and Alex Austin. What should we be

734
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 2: expecting from this Patriots team? I know their defense has

735
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,240
Speaker 2: held it together for the most part, but what should

736
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 2: we expect overall?

737
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm saying that's probably the theme of their season

738
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 9: is their defense has kept them in games and then

739
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 9: the offense has let them down. And up until the

740
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 9: last kick of last game, the Patriots special teams had

741
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 9: let them down as well as their rookie kicker I

742
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 9: think leads the NFL and missed field goals. Obviously had

743
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 9: that big field goal in the last game. But you know,

744
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 9: for the Bills, we talked last week about how you

745
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 9: go to Los Angeles. You're playing a team that it

746
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,719
Speaker 9: just fired its coach and GM. This is the no

747
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 9: excuses game. You got to find a way to win,

748
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:55,280
Speaker 9: especially with no Keenan Allen playing. He was their best

749
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 9: offensive skilled player, No Justin Herbert as well. Obviously Patriots

750
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,759
Speaker 9: don't have their best skilled player. Just find a way

751
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 9: to win. You're playing at home. This is one of

752
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:07,440
Speaker 9: those where everything the Bills want is potentially still in

753
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 9: front of them, the AFC East still in front of them,

754
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 9: the potential for the number two seed in the AAFC

755
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:15,840
Speaker 9: still in front of them. This is a game, I

756
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 9: guess you have to find a way. And they are

757
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 9: more talented than this Patriots team, and they probably feel

758
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:23,880
Speaker 9: like they owe them one from earlier on this season.

759
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 9: So if the Bills can play comparable defense to how

760
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 9: they have in recent weeks, they should be able to

761
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 9: win another game and move them one step closer to

762
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 9: potentially having that Week eighteen winner takes off of the

763
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 9: AFC East matchup.

764
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 1: It looks that way, and certainly, you know, when you

765
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 1: go minus three on the turnover chart against the Chargers,

766
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: that game's a little bit closer, probably a lot more

767
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: closer than it should have been, particularly when the turnovers

768
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 1: come in your own end. But no question about I

769
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,359
Speaker 1: think you're right on point, Field, this is a game

770
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 1: the Bills you gotta win. You gotta win, I know.

771
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 2: Way, Thanks many, Field, appreciate the time as always. Have

772
00:39:59,000 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 2: a happy New Year.

773
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,440
Speaker 9: It taught to you guys next year. Feels weird to

774
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 9: say it, but it's accurate.

775
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:08,200

00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 1: I'm doing.

805
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:50,680
Speaker 2: You know, I'm busy. I don't have time for this

806
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 2: frivolous sports viewer.

807
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:57,000
Speaker 1: I have time for shows and gambling and bright lights.

808
00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 2: Tell me what you think, though, Like, what was the

809
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,200
Speaker 2: first thing that struck you? You know about the matchup

810
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:08,840
Speaker 2: this time around Bill's Patriots? Because for me, I'm trying

811
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:12,319
Speaker 2: to get a handle on all of these changes. And

812
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 2: this is not uncommon for teams that struggle. You know,

813
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 2: teams that are having difficulty winning football games are naturally

814
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 2: going to make changes. Whether it's schematic or whether it's

815
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,359
Speaker 2: personnel related. They're going to make changes trying to find

816
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 2: a better answer for their performance on the field. And

817
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,600
Speaker 2: the Patriots have done that several times over at a

818
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 2: number of positions, not just quarterback.

819
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 1: Right, I think different. The thing that God grabs me

820
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 1: about this Patriot team is how at polar opposites their

821
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: offense and defense are defenses like lights out. Their offense

822
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 1: can't get out of their own way. That surprises me.

823
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 1: That surprises me because they as well coached as they

824
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 1: are defensively, what is going on on the other side

825
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,879
Speaker 1: of the football. And I can't put that all on

826
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 1: the fact that they can't pick players, because if you

827
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 1: can pick, if you can pick those players, why can't

828
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 1: you pick these players? Right? Well, yeah, and I get

829
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 1: it injuries and all that, But defensively, you know, defensively

830
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:17,160
Speaker 1: they've been more nicked up than they have offensively. I

831
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 1: don't know that surprises me. Plus from the last time

832
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:25,879
Speaker 1: we played him in one season has gone completely There's

833
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:29,040
Speaker 1: a bunch of different players, different quarterback. Okay, I get that,

834
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 1: you know, because everybody's kind of doing that now, But

835
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 1: the fact that they can't score points surprises me.

836
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean when you think about it, So Bailey

837
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 2: Zappi has started each of the last four games, and

838
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 2: it's not because he is this juggernaut dramatic improvement at

839
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,439
Speaker 2: the position. It's that he doesn't turn the ball over

840
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 2: and actually makes them functional on offense.

841
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:57,479
Speaker 1: That's listen, that's the key to this whole game.

842
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 2: But that's the bar. They just want to be a functional.

843
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 1: On it it's a low bar. And I'll say this,

844
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 1: if you don't turn it over against these guys, they

845
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:08,440
Speaker 1: can't beat you. They can't score enough points to beat

846
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 1: you if you don't turn it over. But if you

847
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,040
Speaker 1: want to score points on them, at some point, you're

848
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:13,959
Speaker 1: gonna have to put the ball at risk. And that's

849
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 1: that's where this game is in the balance. We said

850
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,760
Speaker 1: this last week against the Chargers, and certainly they almost

851
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 1: got beat by minus three on the turnover ratio. That's

852
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 1: the same thing this week against this team. Last week

853
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 1: they had you know whoever, I can't even think of

854
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:32,799
Speaker 1: the guys who was a quarterback last week and Stick well,

855
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:36,560
Speaker 1: they got Bailey Zappy this week. And if you don't

856
00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:41,279
Speaker 1: give them extra possessions and great field position, they are

857
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 1: going to struggle to move the ball on you. Remondre

858
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: Stevenson is not even in this game. I mean he's

859
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 1: been out. I mean, they've Hunter Henry's dragging a knee around.

860
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:53,840
Speaker 1: I mean they're gonna, you know, okay, Zeke Elliott and

861
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 1: he's still a good player, but man, oh man, if

862
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: you don't turn it over, you know, they're just they're

863
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 1: just not gonna be good enough to score on you.

864
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,399
Speaker 1: And now their defense gives them some a margin of error,

865
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 1: No question, they can take their time and figure it

866
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,759
Speaker 1: out offensively because their defense is hard to score on.

867
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 1: But if you just don't give them extra possessions, you

868
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: know they're they're really going to struggle. Yes, offensively, they're

869
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:21,680
Speaker 1: gonna struggle.

870
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 2: And to give you an idea, Zeke Elliott is their

871
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 2: leading receiver. He has forty five receptions. Buffalo's leading receivers

872
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,960
Speaker 2: Stefon Diggs he has ninety six. He's got more than

873
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,400
Speaker 2: double the receptions of the Patriots leading receiver, who is

874
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 2: a running back. I mean, that's where they are right now.

875
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:48,359
Speaker 2: It's just not productive. They're just not productive in any way,

876
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 2: shape or form. Zappi has started four games and has

877
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:57,280
Speaker 2: six touchdown passes. You know, Mac Jones started the others

878
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:02,320
Speaker 2: the other nine or ten and he has ten touchdown passes.

879
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 2: So it's like the quarterback averages a little over a

880
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,400
Speaker 2: touchdown pass a game. Actually, no, they've played sixteen games

881
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:12,360
Speaker 2: and they have sixteen touchdown passes from their quarterbacks.

882
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's tough.

883
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:18,440
Speaker 2: It's hard to win that way.

884
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 1: It is, it is, but they've won two out of

885
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 1: their last three now this team they're playing, and you

886
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 1: and I have talked about this too, bred and it

887
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,399
Speaker 1: sounds whenever we talk like this, we talk so much,

888
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,719
Speaker 1: it feels like I'm repeating myself, and maybe I am

889
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:39,600
Speaker 1: to you. I know I am. But this, this game

890
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 1: and the way this runs, this is about Josh in

891
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 1: these games. This is why I think Lamar is gonna

892
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,759
Speaker 1: do to Miami what Josh does to Miami. He's gonna

893
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 1: own He's gonna put the cape on, and he's gonna

894
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 1: do it because Miami's pretty good on the first reading

895
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:57,720
Speaker 1: on that first but when Josh starts to jump outside

896
00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 1: the pocket and starts to create, he crushes Miami on

897
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:05,440
Speaker 1: a regular basis. That's what Lamar is gonna do to Miami.

898
00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 1: This that's my call on this weekend. And this is

899
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,920
Speaker 1: exactly that game. Josh, You're gonna put the cape on

900
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:12,840
Speaker 1: if he doesn't turn it over and then gets outside

901
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,440
Speaker 1: the pocket, runs for runs for first downs, throws for

902
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,319
Speaker 1: first downs, catches him in that second read you know,

903
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:21,759
Speaker 1: in the in the off the script football. That's how

904
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 1: Buffalo beats New England in this game. That's why Josh

905
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:29,280
Speaker 1: is successful against these guys because they're good right away,

906
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:32,839
Speaker 1: they know they they may know what offensive play you're running,

907
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,479
Speaker 1: but once that starts to become a different offensive play,

908
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,520
Speaker 1: Josh wins if he doesn't turn it over. Doing that

909
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:42,320
Speaker 1: kind of football, you don't beat You don't beat this team,

910
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:44,880
Speaker 1: and certainly this Patriot team doesn't beat him because they

911
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:48,960
Speaker 1: count score enough. So that's that's where I'm at right now.

912
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 1: That's why Lamar, that's why Josh, that's why Mahomes, That's

913
00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:55,319
Speaker 1: why these guys are who they are. They can work

914
00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,520
Speaker 1: within the offense and beat you in play well, but

915
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,760
Speaker 1: then if you come up with this offensive game plan,

916
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:06,440
Speaker 1: or if somebody gets hurt, or if you if they

917
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 1: make a mistake up front or whatever, job, they just

918
00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:10,879
Speaker 1: get outside the potm Lamar just run, Josh rolls out,

919
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 1: Mahomes underhands one, whatever, and they make a play.

920
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 2: It plays out of structure.

921
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it. That's the game for these guys, and

922
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,719
Speaker 1: that's why they're so special. They can function in an

923
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,319
Speaker 1: offense without having to do that. But when you do

924
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:27,000
Speaker 1: make a play against them, they just trump you.

925
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:30,600
Speaker 2: The other thing, Yeah, the other thing we've got to discuss,

926
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:33,120
Speaker 2: and we'll probably do more of this in our number

927
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:34,839
Speaker 2: two than we will here because we are a little

928
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:39,279
Speaker 2: short on time. But the Bills are now number one

929
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 2: in the league in red zone touchdown efficiency on offense.

930
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 2: They're scoring sixty seven point three percent of the time,

931
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 2: just to shade higher than San Francisco, tenth of a

932
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 2: percentage higher as a matter of fact than San Francisco.

933
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:59,960
Speaker 2: And that's that's another stat that you attribute an off

934
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 2: lot to Josh, since I think he's up to thirteen

935
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 2: rushing touchdowns this season, which most have been down in

936
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:10,960
Speaker 2: close in goal line situations. The other thing, and I

937
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:13,040
Speaker 2: know I've mentioned this to Steve before.

938
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:13,640
Speaker 8: Is.

939
00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:19,560
Speaker 2: Josh is eleven for eleven on third and once, which

940
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 2: at one hundred percent obviously leads the league.

941
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:25,480
Speaker 1: You can have your tush push, A couple of them

942
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:26,799
Speaker 1: have been tush pushes.

943
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:30,399
Speaker 2: Yes, but he gets it, and to this point, he's

944
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:33,920
Speaker 2: gotten it every single time he's on third and one.

945
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,400
Speaker 2: And then in those goal line situations.

946
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 1: He's a monster. He's an absolute monster. And so and

947
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:42,400
Speaker 1: I'll say this too, it's no small thing that you

948
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:44,520
Speaker 1: got Mitch MOR's who's a savvy veteran, and then you

949
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 1: got two massive guards this year that you didn't haven't

950
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 1: had in the past, massive guards, right, Osiris and McGovern

951
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:59,839
Speaker 1: are heavy. I mean they're they're three to thirty throwing

952
00:49:59,840 --> 00:50:03,560
Speaker 1: their big so that helps. And you know what, hey,

953
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 1: flex go, let's go, let's go get a third and

954
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 1: one bro sleave. That's what you do. And it's and

955
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:14,600
Speaker 1: it's not It sounds easy. It is easy. It's also

956
00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 1: really smart.

957
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:19,239
Speaker 2: Point A to point B.

958
00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 1: Let's go. And they they listen. This this team, we

959
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:25,200
Speaker 1: all see it and we talk about you and I

960
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:29,080
Speaker 1: talk about it every single day. When they do it

961
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:32,480
Speaker 1: the way they do it, and then they're hitting, they can't.

962
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 1: You can't beat them nobody, not the Niners, not the Ravens,

963
00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:42,960
Speaker 1: not the Dolphins, nobody. So we'll see. You're not the Patriots,

964
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 1: so we'll see. But you know, they beat themselves more

965
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:48,080
Speaker 1: often than they ever get beat.

966
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,480
Speaker 2: Break time here for us, Our number two has a

967
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:56,600
Speaker 2: lot of player participation. We've got post practice podium sound

968
00:50:56,920 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 2: from the likes of James Cook and others expected and

969
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,760
Speaker 2: we hope to have tight end. Dalton Kincaid here in studio.

970
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:06,280
Speaker 2: All coming up in our number two on one Bill's

971
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 2: Live presented by Colida Health. It's Buffalo Bills Radio.

972
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:58,360
Speaker 1: This is one Bill's Live presented by Calida Health.

973
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,320
Speaker 2: All Right, welcome to our number two, Chris Browns, the

974
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:03,560
Speaker 2: tasker with you. Glad to have you with us here

975
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 2: on a Thursday. And as we mentioned, we hope to

976
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:11,360
Speaker 2: have tight End Rookie Sensation Dalton Kincaid.

977
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 1: Here in studio with us and Sensation in a little bit.

978
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:16,400
Speaker 2: Well, I mean he's four catches away.

979
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 1: From the record from the.

980
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:24,360
Speaker 2: Bill's rookie receptions record, currently held by one Sammy Watkins.

981
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:26,040
Speaker 2: He had sixty five receptions.

982
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:29,880
Speaker 1: He's also say it again, go ahead, he's also five

983
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:33,640
Speaker 1: or six receptions away from the all time tight end receptions.

984
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:37,840
Speaker 2: Right, he's in competition with Sam Laporta, the Detroit Lions

985
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:38,600
Speaker 2: rookie tight end.

986
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:39,960
Speaker 1: No, I'm talking about Bill's history.

987
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 2: Oh, Bill's histor. Oh yeah, Peene Metzlars. Yeah, for most

988
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:46,919
Speaker 2: receptions in a single season by a Bill's tight end. Yes,

989
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 2: you are correct. So, yeah, he's closing in on a

990
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,400
Speaker 2: couple of numbers. Not that that's what he's focused on here,

991
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:57,760
Speaker 2: focused on helping this team win games. And yeah, it'll

992
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,400
Speaker 2: be uh. As a matter of fact, it was against

993
00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 2: the Patriots where his production really started to take off

994
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 2: back in Week seven. He had five catches in that

995
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 2: game and really kind of blossomed from there with some

996
00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 2: week to week consistency in terms of involvement in the

997
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:15,960
Speaker 2: passing game, where he had at least five receptions for

998
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:19,480
Speaker 2: seven games straight before it was broken. I believe against

999
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:22,319
Speaker 2: Dallas primarily because they didn't throw the football enough. They

1000
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:24,920
Speaker 2: were running the tar out of the ball, and understandably so.

1001
00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:30,680
Speaker 2: But yeah, that's where his whole stretch of consistent contributions

1002
00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:33,920
Speaker 2: to the passing game began Week seven against the Patriots.

1003
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:34,200
Speaker 4: Right.

1004
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's had a great season. We talked a lot

1005
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:41,000
Speaker 1: in the preseason about how he's going to be used.

1006
00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:45,320
Speaker 1: I still think his usage is evolving in this offense,

1007
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,000
Speaker 1: and certainly with the personnel combinations they've got around in

1008
00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:51,920
Speaker 1: where you've got digs on the outside, Dawson Knox is

1009
00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:54,600
Speaker 1: also right there, and now James Cook emerging and a

1010
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:58,759
Speaker 1: new offensive coordinator. I don't think we even really know

1011
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:02,320
Speaker 1: what Can is gonna look like when he's fully formed.

1012
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 1: You know, I still think he's getting better. She's probably

1013
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:06,040
Speaker 1: still learning a lot. And we'll ask him when he

1014
00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:08,560
Speaker 1: comes in about, you know, how far he's has come

1015
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:10,799
Speaker 1: and how far he feels like he has to go.

1016
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 1: But man, in training camp, even we were looking at

1017
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:19,239
Speaker 1: I was like, man, he looked, acted, carried himself, performed

1018
00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: like a guy who had been in the league five years,

1019
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,959
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Yeah, catching everything, running routes,

1020
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:31,319
Speaker 1: getting separation, and he took and plus I don't know

1021
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:35,640
Speaker 1: if I'd be hard pressed. I don't even know if

1022
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:39,640
Speaker 1: Gabe Davis took the amount of reps in pre season

1023
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:42,239
Speaker 1: the Ken k did right out of the gate, you

1024
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:42,759
Speaker 1: know what I mean.

1025
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, it was obvious to me in training camp

1026
00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 2: that they were fast tracking Kinkaid right to get incorporated

1027
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 2: into the offense. And that was not something that we

1028
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:58,040
Speaker 2: were accustomed to seeing. It was not a regular occurrence

1029
00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:02,920
Speaker 2: for rookies on this roster offense or defense to be

1030
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,920
Speaker 2: plugged in unless they had absolutely no the answer at

1031
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:09,319
Speaker 2: the position Shredevius White in the starting lineup from the jump,

1032
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:11,960
Speaker 2: why because in twenty seventeen, the roster wasn't what it

1033
00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:14,880
Speaker 2: is now. Same thing for Tremaine Edmonds. They didn't have

1034
00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:18,120
Speaker 2: a middle linebacker started from day one as a rookie.

1035
00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:22,920
Speaker 2: So you know, it's just it's that kind of stuff.

1036
00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:26,480
Speaker 2: The roster has changed. It's a very hard roster to

1037
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:30,920
Speaker 2: not only make, but to get a role where you

1038
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,280
Speaker 2: can contribute every week. But it was evident in training

1039
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,760
Speaker 2: camp that's what they thought Kincaid was capable of right away.

1040
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:40,160
Speaker 2: So right you could and you could see that, and

1041
00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:40,880
Speaker 2: he was up to it.

1042
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:42,560
Speaker 1: That's the thing. He was up to it. It wasn't

1043
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:46,160
Speaker 1: like he was you know, none of the balls he

1044
00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:48,839
Speaker 1: caught were like fifty to fifty balls. He was separated,

1045
00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:52,520
Speaker 1: you know. And I think as the season has come

1046
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:54,839
Speaker 1: along and he's gotten more comfortable, I think Josh has

1047
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:58,720
Speaker 1: gotten more comfortable with him. I think this shoulder injury

1048
00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:00,120
Speaker 1: had two or three weeks ago. He's not even on

1049
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 1: the injury report anymore. But I thought that hampered him

1050
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:04,840
Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks. I think they were I

1051
00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:09,600
Speaker 1: think they were hiding him out for a minute. That's

1052
00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:14,279
Speaker 1: just my take. But I think he's back now. I'm

1053
00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 1: you got to be high on this, on the guy

1054
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:18,279
Speaker 1: and what he's going to mean to it. It'll be fun

1055
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:18,719
Speaker 1: to talk to.

1056
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:23,680
Speaker 2: Him, right. I mentioned the Bills red zone touchdown efficiency

1057
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:27,560
Speaker 2: prowess on the season sixty seven point three percent success

1058
00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:31,640
Speaker 2: rate that leads the league, and you know, Joe Brady's

1059
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:35,160
Speaker 2: been kind of running things for the last five games,

1060
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:39,320
Speaker 2: and in the last four games, Bills are ten to

1061
00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:42,720
Speaker 2: fourteen in the red zone seventy one point four percent

1062
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:45,440
Speaker 2: success rate, which is even a tick higher than their

1063
00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 2: season average.

1064
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:48,600
Speaker 1: I'll say this it is, and I'll say why. You

1065
00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:51,520
Speaker 1: know why. I'll tell you why it's, Mike, because they

1066
00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:54,000
Speaker 1: running the ball. When you get in the red zone.

1067
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 1: If your offense can run the ball, the other team

1068
00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:03,040
Speaker 1: is where you cannot understand. They're desperate to stop that,

1069
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:05,640
Speaker 1: so they are throwing everybody at the line of scrimmage,

1070
00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:07,600
Speaker 1: which leads everything else open. I'm not saying they're throwing

1071
00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:10,040
Speaker 1: these touchdown, but they can run the ball down close.

1072
00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:12,319
Speaker 1: It makes all the difference in the world when the

1073
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:13,520
Speaker 1: field gets small.

1074
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:15,959
Speaker 2: And Josh is the ultimate weapon down there.

1075
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:18,440
Speaker 1: As well, short yardage and goal line, I mean handed

1076
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 1: to you know, just give him the ball and let's go,

1077
00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:23,720
Speaker 1: and he's done it. Remember that he ran one in

1078
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:28,120
Speaker 1: against the Chargers with Dion right out in front of him.

1079
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 1: When outside the guy tried to spill it. He spilled

1080
00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 1: it and Josh went outside right around him and walked in.

1081
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:37,600
Speaker 1: That's it's that's the way it was with Cam. If

1082
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:39,360
Speaker 1: you think back when Carolina went to their Super Bowl

1083
00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:43,600
Speaker 1: in twenty fifteen, I believe Cam Newton was the most

1084
00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:47,640
Speaker 1: effective running back short yardage running back in the entire league.

1085
00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:50,840
Speaker 1: And it wasn't even close because he was as big

1086
00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:55,200
Speaker 1: as Josh is. Cam was even bigger and heavier and fast,

1087
00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,840
Speaker 1: and when he had the ball in his hands, you

1088
00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:02,720
Speaker 1: couldn't stop him short. So that's the word Josh and

1089
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:04,960
Speaker 1: this offense is now. They're offensive lines playing at a

1090
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 1: high level. They're really efficient, and they're getting a hat

1091
00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:09,640
Speaker 1: on a hat and that's all you need with a

1092
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:13,360
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty pound guy. That's their red zone

1093
00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:15,560
Speaker 1: secret right there. And it'll be interesting to see what

1094
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:19,360
Speaker 1: the Patriots do to counter man that, because they're really

1095
00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 1: good down there.

1096
00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:23,800
Speaker 2: They are good. I think they're still they're not top

1097
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:25,960
Speaker 2: of the league, but they're still pretty respectively.

1098
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:28,240
Speaker 1: The number three, I believe.

1099
00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:30,440
Speaker 2: I got it right here because I was I was

1100
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:31,640
Speaker 2: trying to check it real quick.

1101
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:34,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, the top ten anyway, for sure, but yeah, I.

1102
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:36,720
Speaker 2: Was pretty sure they were top ten. Hold on, I

1103
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 2: got it right here. Because we know the Bills lead

1104
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:42,800
Speaker 2: the league on the offensive side of the ball defensive

1105
00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 2: side of the ball. Here we go. They's seventh in

1106
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:49,840
Speaker 2: the NFL in red zone defense in New England Patriots,

1107
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:53,520
Speaker 2: they're allowing teams only a forty nine percent success rate,

1108
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:55,240
Speaker 2: So less than half the time they get in the

1109
00:58:55,320 --> 00:58:59,720
Speaker 2: end zone the red zone do they give up a touchdown? Right, So, yeah,

1110
00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:01,800
Speaker 2: they've pretty stingy down there. And that's kind of been

1111
00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:04,800
Speaker 2: the mo of that team for years right under Belichick.

1112
00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:08,320
Speaker 2: And we heard Dan Orlovsky say that on Tuesday, right,

1113
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:11,240
Speaker 2: he was just like, yeah, they'll give you yards between

1114
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:13,680
Speaker 2: the twenties, but once you get inside the twenty they

1115
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:18,080
Speaker 2: lock it down. Please to be joined now by Bill's

1116
00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:20,760
Speaker 2: tight end, Dalton Kincaid, who's fresh off the practice field.

1117
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:21,840
Speaker 2: The man's still sweating.

1118
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:22,920
Speaker 1: How'd you get all dirty?

1119
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:24,280
Speaker 2: They were outside?

1120
00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:25,120
Speaker 1: Were you outside?

1121
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:27,120
Speaker 2: We were outside to the laying out for warm.

1122
00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:28,320
Speaker 1: It was warm.

1123
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:28,960
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1124
00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:31,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. It's good day practice, good week of practice

1125
00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:33,640
Speaker 1: so far. Yeah, that's awesome.

1126
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:38,880
Speaker 2: This Patriots team, Dalton has changed an awful lot just

1127
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:42,440
Speaker 2: in terms of the personnel they're using. They've kind of

1128
00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:44,680
Speaker 2: caught a little bit of some momentum here. They've won

1129
00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:48,120
Speaker 2: two of their last three. Does you know you saw

1130
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:51,880
Speaker 2: them once before. I'm sure that has value, But how

1131
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:55,960
Speaker 2: does that morphine change when they've changed things, they don't

1132
00:59:55,960 --> 00:59:57,919
Speaker 2: look like the same team that you saw in week seven?

1133
00:59:57,960 --> 00:59:59,680
Speaker 2: How does that change things for your preparation?

1134
01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:03,800
Speaker 3: Uh, just some more film study obviously watching last week

1135
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:06,919
Speaker 3: against the Broncos, you know, going over there and doing

1136
01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:10,960
Speaker 3: a really good job. They're very well coached team, so uh,

1137
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 3: you kind of know they're they're going to give you

1138
01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 3: their best effort going into that game. But they do

1139
01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:19,120
Speaker 3: a lot personal wise on defense, putting people in different positions,

1140
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:22,840
Speaker 3: you know, safeties, playing backers, backers, playing ends. So just

1141
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:24,960
Speaker 3: expecting a lot of different people in a lot of

1142
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:26,240
Speaker 3: different positions.

1143
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:29,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, what generally, and I don't mean about this game

1144
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:31,439
Speaker 1: plan specific against New England, but what are they told

1145
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:33,960
Speaker 1: you about your upside? Where they want to use you,

1146
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:36,880
Speaker 1: where they see you fitting in your strengths, your you know, weaknesses,

1147
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:39,320
Speaker 1: what do you what are the coaching staff talk to

1148
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:43,720
Speaker 1: you about? You know when it's when they have those evaluations, just.

1149
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:47,240
Speaker 3: You know, putting people in their best position to succeed

1150
01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:50,000
Speaker 3: at what they do best. And we got a lot

1151
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:52,000
Speaker 3: of weapons on offense, so it's kind of utilizing all

1152
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:54,280
Speaker 3: those guys and you know having this read here for

1153
01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:57,800
Speaker 3: that and then this read there for that. So just

1154
01:00:57,920 --> 01:01:01,640
Speaker 3: utilizing you know, our weapons and people's strengths.

1155
01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:04,520
Speaker 1: What have you found when you've been out there playing?

1156
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:06,840
Speaker 1: Now you're you're deep into this, You're like two college

1157
01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:10,640
Speaker 1: years into this, a month of training camp and all

1158
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:12,440
Speaker 1: these games. What do you see yourself when you get

1159
01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:15,840
Speaker 1: out there? What do you know you can do against

1160
01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:18,040
Speaker 1: some of these NFL defenses, maybe when they play with

1161
01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:19,840
Speaker 1: a safety or linebacker. What are some of the things

1162
01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:20,439
Speaker 1: you look for?

1163
01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:23,480
Speaker 3: Uh, just kind of how defenses play us. You know,

1164
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:25,640
Speaker 3: whether they're going to go man heavy or zone heavy.

1165
01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:29,360
Speaker 3: You know, obviously we have Stephan Diggs, who's great receiver.

1166
01:01:29,520 --> 01:01:32,680
Speaker 3: You know how teams are gonna play him because you

1167
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:34,280
Speaker 3: know how they play him is either going to open

1168
01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:35,960
Speaker 3: up some other guys or it's going to give him

1169
01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:39,880
Speaker 3: that one on one opportunity. So personally, it's just you know,

1170
01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:41,680
Speaker 3: winning that one on one matchup when it is man

1171
01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:46,680
Speaker 3: and then in zone, finding those little those pockets for Josh.

1172
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:49,560
Speaker 2: When you know Dawson went out with the risk surgery,

1173
01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:52,000
Speaker 2: you know, the you were shouldering a lot more of

1174
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:55,840
Speaker 2: the burden at the position how do you and your

1175
01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:59,560
Speaker 2: your production kind of went up as many would expect,

1176
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:04,400
Speaker 2: But how did it feel to a have more of

1177
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,360
Speaker 2: the burden on you as a young player number one

1178
01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:09,400
Speaker 2: and then number two? Now on the back side of that,

1179
01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:11,680
Speaker 2: looking back on it a little bit, were you kind

1180
01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:14,000
Speaker 2: of like, you know what, I can't handle this if

1181
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:15,720
Speaker 2: they need me to. Like, how did you kind of

1182
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:17,600
Speaker 2: go through it and then come out of it and

1183
01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:18,320
Speaker 2: look back at it?

1184
01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:19,200
Speaker 4: Uh?

1185
01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:21,960
Speaker 3: You know, when it initially happened, it was just you know, understanding,

1186
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:25,000
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to learn a lot more and a

1187
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:28,480
Speaker 3: lot more is gonna be expected. But the people around

1188
01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:30,800
Speaker 3: me really helped it made it a lot easier. Usually

1189
01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:32,480
Speaker 3: when I'm out there, I look for dos, you know,

1190
01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:34,480
Speaker 3: if I ever have a question or I'm unsure about something,

1191
01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:36,280
Speaker 3: and I'll look at him and sometimes before I even

1192
01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:38,960
Speaker 3: look at him, he's already shooting out, you know what

1193
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:42,080
Speaker 3: I'm thinking. So it is great to have him back,

1194
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:43,720
Speaker 3: just because you know, having someone out there in your

1195
01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:45,080
Speaker 3: room with you is a lot of fun.

1196
01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:47,480
Speaker 2: But so what did you do when you didn't have

1197
01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:50,560
Speaker 2: that security, Like, well, maybe he was on the sidelines, yeah.

1198
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:52,560
Speaker 3: But no, he was still there a ton but you know,

1199
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:55,160
Speaker 3: being out there. I think that's the best thing is experience.

1200
01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:57,160
Speaker 3: That's the best way to kind of slow the game down,

1201
01:02:57,160 --> 01:03:00,840
Speaker 3: and that's you know, when things get easier. So looking back,

1202
01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 3: that experience was super helpful, and it kind of was

1203
01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:06,800
Speaker 3: a moment where it's like, Okay, you know, you you can,

1204
01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:09,600
Speaker 3: you can do this. And I think that's talking to

1205
01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:11,320
Speaker 3: some of the other rookies on the team too, you know,

1206
01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:13,720
Speaker 3: especially those first couple of weeks was you know, you

1207
01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:16,000
Speaker 3: come into it and it's you know, the National football.

1208
01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:18,240
Speaker 2: We feel like it accelerated your learning curve, like just

1209
01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:21,360
Speaker 2: being thrust into you know, there was more on your plate,

1210
01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:23,200
Speaker 2: like sink or swim.

1211
01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, and I think you know, experience, that's that's

1212
01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:29,160
Speaker 3: the best way to to learn and be better, is

1213
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:31,360
Speaker 3: you know, have experience and have a good experience, and

1214
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:33,720
Speaker 3: you know, week in week out you're going against you know,

1215
01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:36,040
Speaker 3: some of the best guys in the league. And then

1216
01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:39,720
Speaker 3: obviously training camp and everything. Our our defense is pretty good,

1217
01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:41,600
Speaker 3: so run as those guys helps out a lot.

1218
01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:43,360
Speaker 1: So, yeah, you played these guys earlier in the year

1219
01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:45,200
Speaker 1: is a long time ago. They've changed a lot in

1220
01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 1: their roster, different quarterbacks and and their defense has gotten

1221
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:51,520
Speaker 1: nicked up. They've got some new different corners playing. What

1222
01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:53,360
Speaker 1: is the vibe in your locker room when you guys

1223
01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:55,600
Speaker 1: talk about how important this game is about the last

1224
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:59,200
Speaker 1: time you played them. What's the vibe about facing these

1225
01:03:59,200 --> 01:04:01,440
Speaker 1: guys who not use so much, but some of these

1226
01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:03,360
Speaker 1: guys face them twice a year and have for a

1227
01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:03,840
Speaker 1: long time.

1228
01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:07,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think more than anything, it's, you know, not

1229
01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 3: really about them.

1230
01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:08,680
Speaker 2: It's more about us.

1231
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:10,200
Speaker 3: And that's kind of what we've been preaching the last

1232
01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:12,400
Speaker 3: couple of weeks is it's about you know, what we

1233
01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:14,960
Speaker 3: do and not as much as what they do. So

1234
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:17,440
Speaker 3: if we do you know what we're capable of, and

1235
01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:20,040
Speaker 3: we're doing it pretty good, then kind of everything will

1236
01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:20,959
Speaker 3: fall into place from there.

1237
01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:23,440
Speaker 2: You guys are top of the league right now in

1238
01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:26,120
Speaker 2: red zone touchdown efficiency number one in the league, sixty

1239
01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:28,760
Speaker 2: seven point three percent. I know you'd rather have the

1240
01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:31,080
Speaker 2: number higher. Everyone strives to be perfect, but last four

1241
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:34,440
Speaker 2: games ten to last fourteen, what is what is really

1242
01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:37,040
Speaker 2: working and clicking for you guys down there? Do you

1243
01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:39,840
Speaker 2: think that's allowing you to finish drives in the end zone.

1244
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:41,720
Speaker 2: I think we've established the run game.

1245
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:43,560
Speaker 3: I think that's you know, been pretty evident the last

1246
01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:46,360
Speaker 3: couple of weeks, and doing that is kind of open

1247
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 3: up some things because teams got to respect the run.

1248
01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:53,280
Speaker 3: So just kind of having those two dimension star offense

1249
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:55,720
Speaker 3: have been pretty good. And then you know Josh can

1250
01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:57,200
Speaker 3: run the ball too, so I think that adds a

1251
01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:57,960
Speaker 3: whole third dimension.

1252
01:04:58,240 --> 01:04:59,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have the unicorn, that's.

1253
01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:04,200
Speaker 1: Right, ye, So they give us a little insight big picture.

1254
01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:05,560
Speaker 1: You guys, you know, you know you've got to win

1255
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:07,280
Speaker 1: out and you you've been in the playoffs for three

1256
01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:11,840
Speaker 1: weeks now, and it it's hard to keep winning. It's

1257
01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:13,840
Speaker 1: hard to win every week, but it's hard to win

1258
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:16,960
Speaker 1: now in the big picture, every single week. What are

1259
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:19,360
Speaker 1: your thoughts and you know, the team's you know, mindset

1260
01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:22,680
Speaker 1: going into into another game that you feel like you

1261
01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:23,400
Speaker 1: kind of must win.

1262
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:26,920
Speaker 3: I think we understand that. I think it's gonna be

1263
01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:29,120
Speaker 3: a lot more helpful being at home. I think everyone

1264
01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:30,920
Speaker 3: loves playing at home. It's you know, we're play in

1265
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:34,240
Speaker 3: front of Bill's Mafia and they're awesome. So I think

1266
01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:36,240
Speaker 3: that's a big help for us this week, is just

1267
01:05:36,240 --> 01:05:38,640
Speaker 3: being at home, and you know, everyone's a lot more

1268
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:41,280
Speaker 3: juiced up for it. Having the fans out there, but

1269
01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:43,720
Speaker 3: we do understand. You know, it's a it's been the

1270
01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:45,840
Speaker 3: playoffs for us the last couple of weeks, so going forward,

1271
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:49,120
Speaker 3: it's that's the expectations go one on each week.

1272
01:05:49,480 --> 01:05:52,800
Speaker 2: How did you, uh, how did you celebrate the Christmas holiday?

1273
01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:55,320
Speaker 2: A little different? You're in a different part of the country,

1274
01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:57,840
Speaker 2: you know, you're a rookie. Was family able to come

1275
01:05:57,880 --> 01:05:59,160
Speaker 2: in or how'd you kind of work that?

1276
01:05:59,520 --> 01:05:59,600
Speaker 4: Uh?

1277
01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:02,640
Speaker 3: We did Christmas the week before, okay, so Cowboys weekend.

1278
01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:04,160
Speaker 3: I had some family come out for that. We did

1279
01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:08,280
Speaker 3: Christmas there art and then Christmas Day was sunny, so

1280
01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 3: I enjoyed being outside a little bit. It was it

1281
01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:11,440
Speaker 3: was nice.

1282
01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:13,640
Speaker 2: That was That was just so you know, that's unusual.

1283
01:06:14,240 --> 01:06:16,160
Speaker 2: I don't think we needed to tell you that, but

1284
01:06:16,320 --> 01:06:20,080
Speaker 2: fifty five and sunny on Christmas Day is highly unlikely here. So, yeah,

Speaker 2: you lucked out this year for sure. Well I'm glad

01:06:29,080 --> 01:06:30,680
Speaker 2: other side of the country, so quite a way. As

1290
01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:33,200
Speaker 2: a way, yeah, do they have any do that? I mean,

1291
01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:35,760
Speaker 2: obviously we all hope to have Super Bowl plans that

1292
01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,800
Speaker 2: mean something, but is that going to be Like I

1293
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:41,560
Speaker 2: can't imagine what Vegas is going to be like when

1294
01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:44,320
Speaker 2: they're hosting a super Bowl like this year as a city,

1295
01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:46,200
Speaker 2: like you know what I mean, Like, Yeah, it's already

1296
01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:48,480
Speaker 2: big enough on its own in its own right now.

1297
01:06:48,480 --> 01:06:51,680
Speaker 2: You're bringing an event like that to Las Vegas, that's

1298
01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:52,080
Speaker 2: got to be.

1299
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:54,360
Speaker 3: It'll it'll definitely make it interesting.

1300
01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:56,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's one word for it.

1301
01:06:56,680 --> 01:07:01,160

Speaker 2: That's Dalton Kink joining us here on One Bill's Live.

1311
01:07:20,920 --> 01:07:23,120
Speaker 2: We turned to the post practice podium now where von

1312
01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:24,400
Speaker 2: Miller is addressing the media.

1313
01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:29,280
Speaker 11: Been a crazy month. You know, obviously there are things

1314
01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:32,720
Speaker 11: that I can talk about, but everything that was out

1315
01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:38,560
Speaker 11: is completely wrong and blown out of proportion. Me and

1316
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:43,520
Speaker 11: my girlfriend. We have problems just like any other couple does,

1317
01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:46,680
Speaker 11: but it's never been any of the things that was

1318
01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:50,000
Speaker 11: alaged to get me against me. So hopefully over tome,

1319
01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:51,720
Speaker 11: you know, all of this stuff will get cleared up,

1320
01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:55,640
Speaker 11: and you know, life is just sometimes life is just

1321
01:07:56,160 --> 01:07:59,040
Speaker 11: be lifing. You just got to keep pushing and keep moving.

1322
01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:04,120
Speaker 11: The people who know me and the people who've been

1323
01:08:04,160 --> 01:08:08,600
Speaker 11: around me know my character, they know who I am,

1324
01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:11,440
Speaker 11: and uh yeah, that's uh, that's all I got to

1325
01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:15,760
Speaker 11: say about that. My knee is still progressing. It's a

1326
01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:17,760
Speaker 11: parent that is not you know where I want it

1327
01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:21,200
Speaker 11: to be right now. But you just gotta keep pushing

1328
01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:23,920
Speaker 11: and just really enjoy the moment. I enjoy, you know,

1329
01:08:24,040 --> 01:08:27,240
Speaker 11: playing for the Buffalo Bills. I enjoy being in the NFL,

1330
01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:30,360
Speaker 11: my in my thirteenth year. So you just got to

1331
01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:31,719
Speaker 11: enjoy all the small things.

1332
01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:33,800
Speaker 4: Live in the moment. We got a great team.

1333
01:08:33,880 --> 01:08:36,840
Speaker 11: It's not all about me and my sacks and and

1334
01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:38,479
Speaker 11: me making plays. Of course I want to do that.

1335
01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:40,120
Speaker 11: Of course I want to contribute to my team. But

1336
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:42,120
Speaker 11: you know, the cars that have been dealt to me

1337
01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:44,040
Speaker 11: right now, I just gotta play them. And you know,

1338
01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:47,000
Speaker 11: you just gotta keep playing, keep pushing. I still feel

1339
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:50,400
Speaker 11: confident in my ability and still feel confident in my

1340
01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:52,320
Speaker 11: ability to play in this league. And you know, just

1341
01:08:52,360 --> 01:08:54,679
Speaker 11: a tough patch, you know, on and off the football field,

1342
01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:57,120
Speaker 11: and you just gotta keep pushing. You know, when I

1343
01:08:57,200 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 11: win in super Bowls and you know all of these

1344
01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:01,439
Speaker 11: good things things are happening to me, you never say

1345
01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:01,840
Speaker 11: why me?

1346
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:04,800
Speaker 4: You never say why me? Why me? You're like, yeah,

1347
01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:06,800
Speaker 4: this is what I do, this is this is my life.

1348
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:09,599
Speaker 11: So whenever things that that happened in your life that

1349
01:09:09,920 --> 01:09:12,880
Speaker 11: may be negative that you don't want. You know, my

1350
01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:15,599
Speaker 11: philosophy is, you know I don't I don't say why

1351
01:09:15,640 --> 01:09:18,439
Speaker 11: me in that situation either. You know, you just keep pushing,

1352
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:21,760
Speaker 11: keep going, and just continue to be the light that

1353
01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:25,800
Speaker 11: I that I know I am.

1354
01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:26,200
Speaker 10: Mention some of the stuff those the life you would

1355
01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:29,479
Speaker 10: feel uncomfortable with, what was alf?

1356
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:30,760
Speaker 1: What are you help people like that?

1357
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:32,320
Speaker 4: Especially your family? Man?

1358
01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:35,840
Speaker 11: It is uh, you know, first and foremost, there are

1359
01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:45,400
Speaker 11: men and women that deal with serious domestic situations. You

1360
01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:49,600
Speaker 11: you cannot downplay that that really happens, you know, in

1361
01:09:49,640 --> 01:09:50,760
Speaker 11: this world that we live in.

1362
01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:53,000
Speaker 4: That's not a fairy tale. That that stuff is true.

1363
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:53,800
Speaker 4: That stuff is real.

1364
01:09:55,640 --> 01:09:57,639
Speaker 11: Never in any of my relationships that I've been in,

1365
01:09:58,479 --> 01:10:01,200
Speaker 11: Never in my caarent rely and ship with my girlfriend

1366
01:10:01,920 --> 01:10:04,920
Speaker 11: that any of those things happen. So whenever you see

1367
01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:07,400
Speaker 11: that stuff pop up on you know, articles and stuff

1368
01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:09,760
Speaker 11: like it's it's it's shocking, of course, especially when my

1369
01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:10,720
Speaker 11: name is attached to it.

1370
01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:15,400
Speaker 4: But it is a one hundred percent false. It's overblown.

1371
01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:19,120
Speaker 11: You know, I gotta write people on the job, and

1372
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:21,439
Speaker 11: you just you just keep pushing, like, I know who

1373
01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:23,800
Speaker 11: I am. You know, I know my character, I know

1374
01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:25,400
Speaker 11: the type of person that I am. I know I

1375
01:10:25,680 --> 01:10:29,080
Speaker 11: know me and my my girlfriend's relationship. So you just

1376
01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:32,240
Speaker 11: got to keep pushing man, and life just life's you know.

1377
01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:36,120
Speaker 11: You gotta you know small and and have fun through

1378
01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:38,400
Speaker 11: it all, especially when you know all the stuff is

1379
01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:39,360
Speaker 11: uh is untrue.

1380
01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:42,160
Speaker 12: Think to you said, there's things that are incorrect.

1381
01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:44,280
Speaker 4: Are you able to speak to any of the things.

1382
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:45,679
Speaker 9: All of it is incorrect?

1383
01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:47,360
Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't know what else.

1384

Speaker 11: all of it is incorrect, and you know all of

1386
01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:54,519

1394
01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:15,719
Speaker 1: having involved in a lawsuit against you and now this situation.

1395
01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:18,639
Speaker 4: Who was that? Who was a lawsuiting?

1396
01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:21,840
Speaker 1: Isn't believe it may have been dropped, but.

1397
01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:22,240
Speaker 8: It was.

1398
01:11:24,439 --> 01:11:26,760
Speaker 4: You when the going to it was reported on it.

1399
01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:30,439
Speaker 1: Understanding that you're denying?

1400
01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:31,240
Speaker 8: Is that real? Interested?

1401
01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:33,599
Speaker 4: Why do you feel like your name continues to come

1402
01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:35,080
Speaker 4: up in these type of situations?

1403
01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:41,960
Speaker 11: You know what I really, I really don't. You don't

1404
01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:45,600
Speaker 11: know know what to say to that man. It's you know,

1405
01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:48,360
Speaker 11: like I said, life, It just life, just be life.

1406
01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:52,160
Speaker 11: And sometimes you know, obviously if I I would want

1407
01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:53,880
Speaker 11: any of that stuff to be attached to my name.

1408
01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:56,679
Speaker 11: But you know the things before one true and false

1409
01:11:56,720 --> 01:11:59,760
Speaker 11: and this is untrue and false as well. You know

1410
01:11:59,840 --> 01:12:03,040
Speaker 11: me and my girlfriend, we you know, we had problems

1411
01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:05,840
Speaker 11: just like you know everybody else, but there was never

1412
01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:08,320
Speaker 11: a time where domestic violence was.

1413
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:14,160
Speaker 4: Happened or did to care how much as.

1414
01:12:14,280 --> 01:12:16,719
Speaker 9: Would I have been dealing with off the field prepped

1415
01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:19,120
Speaker 9: into things here and doing your job.

1416
01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:24,000
Speaker 11: You know what it's you can't there's no way you

1417
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:28,760
Speaker 11: could just block it out. Like it's not like it's

1418
01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:32,400
Speaker 11: it's not like you know, my brother missing a football game,

1419
01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:35,800
Speaker 11: or it's not like my my family stealing from me.

1420
01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:38,960
Speaker 11: It's a it's a serious situation and it's hard to

1421
01:12:39,080 --> 01:12:42,080
Speaker 11: it's hard to block out. But you know, coming up here,

1422
01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:45,400
Speaker 11: it's always sunny, and being able to come up here

1423
01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:48,840
Speaker 11: and and be a part of this football team is

1424
01:12:49,439 --> 01:12:51,519
Speaker 11: you know, it's like it's like a country club. You know,

1425
01:12:51,560 --> 01:12:53,599
Speaker 11: you come here and you can kind of detach from

1426
01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:56,439
Speaker 11: you know, everything else that's that's happening outside the world,

1427
01:12:56,479 --> 01:12:58,160
Speaker 11: and you know, I just come here and I just

1428
01:12:58,160 --> 01:12:59,880
Speaker 11: try to focus on the things that that I've been

1429
01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:03,160
Speaker 11: focusing on before, you know, try to focus on, you know,

1430
01:13:03,160 --> 01:13:05,720
Speaker 11: getting my knee better, you know, contributing to this football team,

1431
01:13:05,800 --> 01:13:08,360
Speaker 11: you know, winning games, and you know, I just you know,

1432
01:13:08,439 --> 01:13:11,519
Speaker 11: really minimize my focus to those things and just stay

1433
01:13:11,520 --> 01:13:13,920
Speaker 11: in the moment. You know, when you have negative things

1434
01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:17,760
Speaker 11: that's happening, you just you know, it's hard to you know,

1435
01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:20,120
Speaker 11: not focus on those things. But I'm living my dream.

1436
01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:22,400
Speaker 11: You know, I hate going to sleep, cause you know,

1437
01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:24,840
Speaker 11: I'm I'm really living my dream here with all these guys.

1438
01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:26,639
Speaker 11: This is what I work for. My whole entire life

1439
01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:28,880
Speaker 11: is to play football and be in this situation. So

1440
01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:30,880
Speaker 11: you know, that's where my focus is.

1441
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,439
Speaker 12: Say, everything that's come out is false about this, and

1442
01:13:34,479 --> 01:13:36,320
Speaker 12: you're saying you didn't get in a fight that day

1443
01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:37,800
Speaker 12: like that, everything about.

1444
01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:40,360
Speaker 11: It is I honestly, like I wasn't on social media

1445
01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:44,439
Speaker 11: before and definitely not on social media now. But you know,

1446
01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:47,080
Speaker 11: from the things that have been brought to my attention,

1447
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:49,640
Speaker 11: you know, everything is is false. And you know, I

1448
01:13:49,640 --> 01:13:51,240
Speaker 11: would love to sit here and say y'all know me,

1449
01:13:51,560 --> 01:13:54,200
Speaker 11: you know, but it's not you know, this is not

1450
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:58,320
Speaker 11: that that type of situation because you know, domestic violence

1451
01:13:58,360 --> 01:14:01,160
Speaker 11: really happens. It really happens around world and for men

1452
01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:04,320
Speaker 11: and women, and it's a serious situation. So I you know,

Speaker 11: I wouldn't pull their card. All I can say is,

1454

1486
01:15:24,680 --> 01:15:28,200
Speaker 11: and that curse for me, I never really think about

1487
01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:30,519
Speaker 11: my knee when I'm out there. I'm not thinking about

1488
01:15:30,680 --> 01:15:33,720
Speaker 11: like my knee hurting or is it back or is

1489
01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:36,519

Speaker 11: there in the football field, having my pads on, and

1491
01:15:38,240 --> 01:15:40,519
Speaker 11: I enjoy being on the football field. But when you

1492
01:15:40,600 --> 01:15:44,040
Speaker 11: watch the film, it's, uh, it's obviously that I'm not

1493
01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:46,040
Speaker 11: all the way back to where I to where I

1494
01:15:46,120 --> 01:15:48,880
Speaker 11: can be. So you know, you just gotta you know,

1495
01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:51,040
Speaker 11: you just gotta keep pushing. And this is younger in

1496
01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:53,479
Speaker 11: my career to be you know, more of a drag

1497
01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:56,800
Speaker 11: on me, you know. But right now, man, it's just

1498
01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:59,360
Speaker 11: so many it's just so many things that I have

1499
01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:02,040
Speaker 11: to be you know, happy about. You know, we're in

1500
01:16:02,360 --> 01:16:06,400
Speaker 11: in the contention of winning division. We're back winning games again,

1501
01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:08,400
Speaker 11: playing great defense, playing great offense.

1502
01:16:10,120 --> 01:16:11,800
Speaker 4: And it's it's bigger than just me. You know.

1503
01:16:11,800 --> 01:16:13,280
Speaker 11: I would love to say, man, I need to get said,

1504
01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:15,160
Speaker 11: but it's it's bigger than just me. And you know,

1505
01:16:15,240 --> 01:16:17,360
Speaker 11: the main focus has always been winning games. And as

1506
01:16:17,400 --> 01:16:24,360
Speaker 11: long as we're doing that, I'm good. Particular stuff, No,

1507
01:16:24,520 --> 01:16:27,720
Speaker 11: I didn't, I, you know, to be honest, and I

1508
01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:30,600
Speaker 11: you know, I tell Nate and Brandon Bean and you know,

1509
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:34,200
Speaker 11: Coach McDermitt the same thing. This situation that I'm in

1510
01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 11: here with the Buffalo Bills, is is the best you

1511
01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:39,120
Speaker 11: could ask for, as as far as rehab, as far

1512
01:16:39,200 --> 01:16:42,800
Speaker 11: as you know, the the physical therapist with Joe Meek

1513
01:16:42,840 --> 01:16:45,160
Speaker 11: and all the guys that I work with, Coach Washington.

1514
01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:48,240
Speaker 11: This is the best situation that I can be in.

1515
01:16:48,400 --> 01:16:51,040
Speaker 11: And it's you know, it's all on me. It's it's

1516
01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:53,879
Speaker 11: really all on me and and me, you know, developing

1517
01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:58,680
Speaker 11: everything else. My environment is it's top ten. It's it's

1518
01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:01,000
Speaker 11: it's peak environment to be in and recovering and try

1519
01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:02,840
Speaker 11: to be the same player that you was before.

1520
01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:03,800
Speaker 4: It's just all on me.

1521
01:17:03,920 --> 01:17:05,479
Speaker 11: And you know that's why I want it. You know,

1522
01:17:05,560 --> 01:17:07,760
Speaker 11: it's it's all on me, and you know it'll happen.

1523
01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:11,160
Speaker 11: It just gotta keep pushing. You feel you can't back

1524
01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:13,880
Speaker 11: to your self. No, I feel like I was, you know,

1525
01:17:13,880 --> 01:17:17,439
Speaker 11: I feel like I was ready earlier, you know, but

1526
01:17:17,479 --> 01:17:19,760
Speaker 11: putting those paths on and and everybody moving around, it's

1527
01:17:19,760 --> 01:17:22,479
Speaker 11: just it's just different. It's just different. And you know,

1528
01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:25,360
Speaker 11: I'm not an excuse maker, you know. I like to

1529
01:17:25,439 --> 01:17:27,280
Speaker 11: live on you know, the bright side of things, and

1530
01:17:28,080 --> 01:17:29,519
Speaker 11: I guess that is a gift in the curse. But

1531
01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:31,479
Speaker 11: it's got me all the way up to this point,

1532
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:34,640
Speaker 11: and it'll continue to take me to different levels in

1533
01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:35,040
Speaker 11: my life.

1534
01:17:35,080 --> 01:17:36,800
Speaker 4: For sure, watching the.

1535
01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:41,720
Speaker 1: Dolment, not looking like yourself and you know, fair prison everything.

1536
01:17:42,040 --> 01:17:43,920
Speaker 4: You feel like you're be out there. You feel like

1537
01:17:43,920 --> 01:17:46,439
Speaker 4: you're enough to be out there. You know, I really don't.

1538
01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:47,720
Speaker 4: I really don't have no pride. Man.

1539
01:17:47,760 --> 01:17:50,800
Speaker 11: All I want to do is win. Got the best gym,

1540
01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:57,120
Speaker 11: and and all of pro sports. That's basketball, baseball, pick

1541
01:17:57,200 --> 01:18:00,600
Speaker 11: a ball, that's everything included. You know, Brandon Bean is

1542
01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:03,280
Speaker 11: the best in sports. And you know, whatever decision that

1543
01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:07,400
Speaker 11: we go with, I'm I'm okay with. I feel like

1544
01:18:07,400 --> 01:18:08,519
Speaker 11: I should be out there. I feel like I can

1545
01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:10,600
Speaker 11: still play. I feel like it's just I feel like

1546
01:18:10,600 --> 01:18:13,200
Speaker 11: I'm one play away from really breaking through. But you know,

1547
01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:16,960
Speaker 11: I'm gonna always follow these guys, man. They've they've they've

1548
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:19,600
Speaker 11: always had my back, and they've always guided me and

1549
01:18:19,680 --> 01:18:21,840
Speaker 11: directed me in great situations.

1550
01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:24,920
Speaker 4: And I'm not about to, you know, take outside advice

1551
01:18:25,040 --> 01:18:26,880
Speaker 4: or anything else. Right now. I'm following those guys, and

1552
01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:28,439
Speaker 4: whatever those guys want me to do, I do it.

1553
01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:32,719
Speaker 9: What were those conversations, but after you knows they happened.

1554
01:18:33,360 --> 01:18:38,519
Speaker 4: You know what you know, I can't really sit here

1555
01:18:38,600 --> 01:18:41,000
Speaker 4: with you guys and and tell you guys everything.

1556
01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:44,880
Speaker 11: But I was one hundred percent truthful with with Brandon Breen,

1557
01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:50,559
Speaker 11: Coach McDermott and uh the NFL and investigators and you.

1558
01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:51,679
Speaker 4: Know, mister Pergola.

1559
01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:54,280
Speaker 11: I was one hundred percent transparent with everything that happened

1560
01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:58,800
Speaker 11: that day from start to finish, even had them, uh

1561
01:18:59,360 --> 01:19:01,439
Speaker 11: you know, tapped in with the DA reports and everything

1562
01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:04,760
Speaker 11: that was going on with this situation. So these guys

1563
01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:08,160
Speaker 11: know me, they know me, they've been around me. You know,

1564
01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:10,479
Speaker 11: obviously you know anybody can you don't have a lapse

1565
01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:12,479
Speaker 11: of judgment. But that's that's just not been me. I

1566
01:19:12,760 --> 01:19:14,400
Speaker 11: love being here, I love playing football. I love the

1567
01:19:14,439 --> 01:19:15,280
Speaker 11: situation that I'm in.

1568
01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:17,519
Speaker 4: I love being you know v me.

1569
01:19:17,680 --> 01:19:20,599
Speaker 11: I love raising you know, two three beautiful boys now,

1570
01:19:20,720 --> 01:19:22,760
Speaker 11: and you know, I love the situation. I mean, I

1571
01:19:22,800 --> 01:19:25,559
Speaker 11: would never jeopardize any of that, and I would always

1572
01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:28,160
Speaker 11: be truthful for to to those guys. And I think

1573
01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:30,679
Speaker 11: that's that's why, because it's it's deeper than just words,

1574
01:19:30,920 --> 01:19:34,200
Speaker 11: you know, with the with the Buffalo bills, and these

1575
01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:36,040
Speaker 11: guys know me, and I've kept them in the loop

1576
01:19:36,080 --> 01:19:38,040
Speaker 11: with everything that has went on like I always do,

1577
01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:38,479
Speaker 11: from the.

Speaker 4: Surgery to from free agency to the surgery to everything.

1579
01:19:42,280 --> 01:19:44,800
Speaker 11: I've always been transparent about everything that's going on with me,

1580
01:19:44,880 --> 01:19:47,640
Speaker 11: and I think that's why they support me.

1581
01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:50,160
Speaker 4: It said, prior, when you.

1582
01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:51,960

Speaker 9: you felt. Do you still believe you could get back

1585
01:19:57,200 --> 01:19:59,360
Speaker 9: to the level you were before you come on, guys.

1586
01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:00,240
Speaker 4: I mean, it's the of me.

1587
01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:02,760
Speaker 11: What I mean, what I like coming up here saying no, man, no,

1588
01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:05,280
Speaker 11: I firmly believe that, and I firmly.

1589
01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:06,519
Speaker 4: Believe, you know, my best is yet to come.

1590
01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:08,760
Speaker 11: I know you got the Super Bowls and all the

1591
01:20:08,800 --> 01:20:10,880
Speaker 11: other stuff that's happening in early in my career, but

1592
01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:13,160
Speaker 11: I firmly believe that my best is yet to come,

1593
01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:16,800
Speaker 11: you know. And sometimes you just sometimes God just God

1594
01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:19,240
Speaker 11: just put you in these situations just to just to

1595
01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:22,720
Speaker 11: test your your faith. And you know, He's you know,

1596
01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:25,840
Speaker 11: I'm a testament. You know, He's been instrumental in my life.

1597
01:20:26,360 --> 01:20:29,560
Speaker 11: I've I'm not gonna sit here and sound perfect, but

1598
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:31,960
Speaker 11: you know, he's been instrumental in my life.

1599
01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:35,479
Speaker 4: And you know, I just want to keep pushing.

1600
01:20:35,520 --> 01:20:37,479
Speaker 11: And you know, he's brought me to the mountain top,

1601
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:40,400
Speaker 11: and he's taken me through adverse times as well to

1602
01:20:40,560 --> 01:20:42,439
Speaker 11: bring me back up to the mountaintop. So I never

1603
01:20:42,520 --> 01:20:44,559
Speaker 11: sit here and say why me, whether it's good or bad,

1604
01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:47,160
Speaker 11: you know, I just keep my head down and keep pushing,

1605
01:20:47,479 --> 01:20:49,320
Speaker 11: try to get some laughs in along the way, and

1606
01:20:49,840 --> 01:20:51,479
Speaker 11: you know, and just you know, keep my head up

1607
01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:53,120
Speaker 11: and continue to get up the quarterback.

1608
01:20:54,720 --> 01:20:56,479
Speaker 4: Thanks Guts, I appreciate comming. All right.

1609
01:20:56,560 --> 01:20:59,759
Speaker 2: That's von Miller addressing the media with his first comments

1610
01:20:59,840 --> 01:21:05,840
Speaker 2: and those allegations surfaced down in Texas and address them

1611
01:21:05,880 --> 01:21:08,719
Speaker 2: pretty straightforwardly here for the better part of the last

1612
01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:13,200
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes and claims he has always been transparent with

1613
01:21:13,320 --> 01:21:17,520
Speaker 2: the Bills and basically stated that any and all allegations

1614
01:21:18,160 --> 01:21:21,200
Speaker 2: are untrue that have been made against him, both now

1615
01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:24,760
Speaker 2: and in the past. We have to take a break here,

1616
01:21:24,840 --> 01:21:27,200
Speaker 2: but when Steve and I come back, plenty more come

1617
01:21:27,240 --> 01:21:31,680
Speaker 2: in your way, including some interesting playoff probabilities concerning the

1618
01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:35,040
Speaker 2: Bills and what a victory would mean for their fortunes.

1619
01:21:35,120 --> 01:21:36,760
Speaker 2: That's coming up next to here on One Bill's Live

1626
01:22:13,920 --> 01:22:17,080
Speaker 2: got a pivot back to the post practice podium where

1627
01:22:17,200 --> 01:22:20,360
Speaker 2: Gabe Davis, fresh off the one hundred and thirty yard

1628
01:22:20,479 --> 01:22:24,120
Speaker 2: receiving performance which included a fifty seven yard touchdown, is

1629
01:22:24,200 --> 01:22:28,439
Speaker 2: in is addressing the media. The dialogue have you had

1630
01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:29,000
Speaker 2: with Steph?

1631
01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:32,439
Speaker 10: Obviously, it seems like he's not at the level that

1632
01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:33,760
Speaker 10: he's using a custom too.

1633
01:22:33,880 --> 01:22:35,559
Speaker 9: What sort of conversations have you had.

1634
01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:38,920
Speaker 10: With him in terms of using his mind space and

1635
01:22:39,439 --> 01:22:40,599
Speaker 10: he's going through distress.

1636
01:22:41,400 --> 01:22:42,800
Speaker 4: I mean, I feel like Stef's been good.

1637
01:22:44,920 --> 01:22:49,320
Speaker 12: We're winning games, and you know, maybe his stats aren't

1638
01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:51,040
Speaker 12: looking like how they should each and every week, but

1639
01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:53,320
Speaker 12: you know, that's the game that we play.

1640
01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:58,040
Speaker 4: I mean, he's strong minded and he's been positive through

1641
01:22:58,080 --> 01:22:58,519
Speaker 4: this whole thing.

1642
01:22:58,680 --> 01:23:01,360
Speaker 12: So I feel like Steph's been doing a great job receiver.

1643
01:23:01,880 --> 01:23:03,720
Speaker 9: What is the challenge if you always want the ball?

1644
01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:07,759
Speaker 10: Obviously, believe you're a playmaker, but also understanding maybe sometimes

1645
01:23:07,840 --> 01:23:10,439
Speaker 10: you're not getting the ball is freeing things up for

1646
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:11,120
Speaker 10: other maps.

1647
01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:14,360
Speaker 12: Man, I don't think it's like always getting the ball.

1648
01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:19,799
Speaker 12: I think it's maximizing the opportunity, you know, and everything

1649
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:24,200
Speaker 12: has to fall in line for that opportunity to to

1650
01:23:24,680 --> 01:23:27,240
Speaker 12: you know, for the for for the right opportunity, you know,

1651
01:23:27,640 --> 01:23:30,599
Speaker 12: if if that makes sense. So I feel like when

1652
01:23:30,640 --> 01:23:33,560
Speaker 12: you do get the get the time to get the

1653
01:23:33,600 --> 01:23:35,439
Speaker 12: play that's supposed to be for you, you want, you

1654
01:23:35,560 --> 01:23:39,200
Speaker 12: wanted to, uh to connect and when it doesn't, you know,

1655
01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:41,599
Speaker 12: more than once, it starts to get a little frustrating,

1656
01:23:41,800 --> 01:23:44,760
Speaker 12: you know, but uh, you know, you just gotta stay

1657
01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:47,519
Speaker 12: the course and keep your head up and keep going.

1658
01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:51,880
Speaker 8: So now if anyone asks year, yeah, but does a

1659
01:23:51,960 --> 01:23:54,000
Speaker 8: little secure in the year he's having, where's the biggest

1660
01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:54,960
Speaker 8: sort of you tie from him?

1661
01:23:56,720 --> 01:23:58,559
Speaker 12: I mean, I feel like Seure has always been a process.

1662
01:23:58,600 --> 01:23:59,040
Speaker 4: He's been here.

1663
01:24:00,360 --> 01:24:01,880
Speaker 12: You know, it doesn't surprise me to see him doing

1664
01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:03,360
Speaker 12: what he's doing and making the plays that he makes.

1665
01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:05,840
Speaker 12: He's always been like that since he got here. You know,

1666
01:24:05,880 --> 01:24:08,240
Speaker 12: he just does his job whatever he's asked, and you know,

1667
01:24:09,120 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 12: doesn't again, doesn't surprise me to see him being the

1668
01:24:12,080 --> 01:24:12,680
Speaker 12: player that he is.

1669
01:24:13,880 --> 01:24:15,640
Speaker 4: Probably Joe with her, he.

1670
01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:17,600
Speaker 7: Said, clothed you out of the game that they have

1671
01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:18,920
Speaker 7: to go away without the play.

1672
01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:19,360
Speaker 1: That he made.

1673
01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:22,920
Speaker 9: But also, I'm sorry you already after if they don't

1674
01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:26,120
Speaker 9: win that game without the added you've had the last

1675
01:24:27,240 --> 01:24:28,000
Speaker 9: what's going into that.

1676
01:24:28,200 --> 01:24:31,640
Speaker 4: It's allowed you to kind of keep out every maybe frustrated.

1677
01:24:31,320 --> 01:24:34,559
Speaker 9: For potus time you were added to audit.

1678
01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:37,719
Speaker 4: You know, just just gotta be patient.

1679
01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:41,920
Speaker 12: You know, I feel like I've prayed to God to

1680
01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:43,600
Speaker 12: give me patience, and I feel like this year he

1681
01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:48,160
Speaker 12: showed me, you know, how to have patience when there's

1682
01:24:48,240 --> 01:24:50,040
Speaker 12: multiple weeks not going you know, the way you want

1683
01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:53,080
Speaker 12: him to go. You know, my mom seen me e

1684
01:24:53,120 --> 01:24:55,360
Speaker 12: clip the other day of someone saying the same things.

1685
01:24:55,400 --> 01:24:57,760
Speaker 12: She's like, that's been you this year. So being able

1686
01:24:57,760 --> 01:25:00,720
Speaker 12: to be patient and be there for my teammates and

1687
01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:06,439
Speaker 12: uh not be selfish, there's a been a huge stuff

1688
01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:06,680
Speaker 12: for me.

1689
01:25:08,560 --> 01:25:09,560
Speaker 4: It's not gonna be hard to do.

1690
01:25:09,760 --> 01:25:11,479
Speaker 9: What do you think helps in that area?

1691
01:25:11,640 --> 01:25:16,640
Speaker 12: Drove just being grateful for the opportunity to be out here,

1692
01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:20,200
Speaker 12: being grateful to be playing the game that I love,

1693
01:25:20,320 --> 01:25:25,320
Speaker 12: and uh, again, you know, not not if if not

1694
01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:27,840
Speaker 12: only the amount of times I get the ball makes

1695
01:25:27,880 --> 01:25:30,320
Speaker 12: me happy, like if I see James out there busting

1696
01:25:30,360 --> 01:25:33,679
Speaker 12: for a run, or Josh scoring a touchdown or digs

1697
01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:36,639
Speaker 12: you know, catching the deep. You know, everything I'm happy

1698
01:25:36,840 --> 01:25:41,680
Speaker 12: for for everything, So being able to not only uh

1699
01:25:42,960 --> 01:25:45,280
Speaker 12: think about my success, but all the other guys around

1700
01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:47,360
Speaker 12: me who I love makes me just as happy.

1701
01:25:50,320 --> 01:25:53,280
Speaker 2: All right, that's Gabe Davis addressing the media. One more

1702
01:25:53,360 --> 01:25:55,599
Speaker 2: break here, Steve and I have some final thoughts when

1703
01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:58,320
Speaker 2: we return on One Bill's Live, presented by Kalida Health.

1704
01:25:58,360 --> 01:26:18,120
Speaker 2: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right, welcome back to One

1705
01:26:18,160 --> 01:26:21,120
Speaker 2: Bill's Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you. And you know,

1706
01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:24,679
Speaker 2: we've seen all of these percentages for the last few weeks,

1707
01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,840
Speaker 2: knowing Bills were in must win mode for the better

1708
01:26:27,920 --> 01:26:30,479
Speaker 2: part of the last five weeks of the season. They've

1709
01:26:30,520 --> 01:26:32,479
Speaker 2: won their last three in a row. They've got two

1710
01:26:32,560 --> 01:26:35,680
Speaker 2: to go here, and we've seen, you know, whether it's

1711
01:26:35,680 --> 01:26:39,320
Speaker 2: the New York Times Playoff Machine or ESPN dot COM's

1712
01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:45,439
Speaker 2: football projections that they have on their analytics page, wherever

1713
01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:50,400
Speaker 2: you're looking, you've undoubtedly seen the percentage chance that the

1714
01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:52,519
Speaker 2: Bills make the playoffs if they win this week or

1715
01:26:52,880 --> 01:26:55,800
Speaker 2: if they lose, what happens to their percentage chances and

1716
01:26:55,960 --> 01:26:59,160
Speaker 2: that kind of stuff. This week is the week, Steve.

1717
01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:05,960
Speaker 2: They have the biggest swing in playoff probability leverage in

1718
01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:09,720
Speaker 2: the entire league between a win and a loss, and

1719
01:27:09,840 --> 01:27:13,680
Speaker 2: the difference it would make for Buffalo. So I'll just

1720
01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:16,120
Speaker 2: go from bottom to top this week of teams that

1721
01:27:16,160 --> 01:27:19,800
Speaker 2: are still in playoff contention or the primary teams in

1722
01:27:19,920 --> 01:27:23,400
Speaker 2: playoff contention that don't have a playoff spot sewn up yet. Jaguars.

1723
01:27:24,439 --> 01:27:28,400
Speaker 2: If they win, their playoff probability increases to eighty one

1724
01:27:28,520 --> 01:27:31,560
Speaker 2: percent eighty one percent. With a loss, it drops to

1725
01:27:31,720 --> 01:27:36,000
Speaker 2: thirty nine percent, a forty two percent swing and leverage.

1726
01:27:36,680 --> 01:27:40,439
Speaker 2: The Colts if they win improved to seventy percent chance

1727
01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:42,800
Speaker 2: to make the playoffs. With a loss they plummet to

1728
01:27:42,920 --> 01:27:46,200
Speaker 2: twenty five percent, a forty five percent swing in leverage.

1729
01:27:46,240 --> 01:27:47,479
Speaker 1: They're home against the Raiders.

1730
01:27:47,800 --> 01:27:51,639
Speaker 2: The Bengals with a win improved to fifty eight percent

1731
01:27:51,800 --> 01:27:55,400
Speaker 2: chance of making the playoffs with a win eight percent.

1732
01:27:55,320 --> 01:27:57,439
Speaker 1: With a loss. There on the road at Kansas City.

1733
01:27:57,560 --> 01:28:00,479
Speaker 2: That is a fifty percent swing between winning and losing

1734
01:28:00,680 --> 01:28:04,280
Speaker 2: and at the top of the list. The Bills with

1735
01:28:04,479 --> 01:28:08,560
Speaker 2: a win improved to a ninety seven percent chance of

1736
01:28:08,680 --> 01:28:12,040
Speaker 2: making the playoffs. With a loss, they dropped to forty

1737
01:28:12,200 --> 01:28:17,759
Speaker 2: six percent, a playoff leverage swing of fifty one percent.

1738
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:21,879
Speaker 2: It is the largest playoff percentage leverage in the AFC.

1739
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:25,559
Speaker 2: This week, it's big.

1740
01:28:25,760 --> 01:28:29,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta win ro sleeve. I mean it's big Jacksonville.

1741
01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:31,640
Speaker 1: You said the first team with Jacksonville that they've got

1742
01:28:31,680 --> 01:28:34,080
Speaker 1: something riding on this. They're at home against the Panthers,

1743
01:28:34,479 --> 01:28:36,439
Speaker 1: so that's yeah, good for them.

1744
01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:39,000
Speaker 2: Now, the craziest thing is if you look at this,

1745
01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:42,559
Speaker 2: let's just say all four of those teams lose this week.

1746
01:28:42,880 --> 01:28:46,320
Speaker 1: Let's just for hypothetic, Buffalo would be one of them. Yes, okay, they.

1747
01:28:46,280 --> 01:28:48,639
Speaker 2: Would still have the highest percentage of those four teams

1748
01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:51,800
Speaker 2: to make the playoffs, because it would go if they

1749
01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:56,280
Speaker 2: all lost. Bills at forty six percent, Jaguars at thirty

1750
01:28:56,360 --> 01:29:00,800
Speaker 2: nine percent, Colds to twenty five percent, Bengals at eight percent. Yeah,

1751
01:29:01,360 --> 01:29:04,320
Speaker 2: but let's just keep winning at how about that?

1752
01:29:05,160 --> 01:29:05,320
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1753
01:29:05,360 --> 01:29:05,760
Speaker 1: How about that?

1754
01:29:05,920 --> 01:29:08,360
Speaker 2: How about we do that? Let's do that instead, And

1755
01:29:08,760 --> 01:29:11,400
Speaker 2: our MSG viewers are seeing the slate here this week,

1756
01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:15,280
Speaker 2: Browns at ten and five face the Jets at home

1757
01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:17,719
Speaker 2: with Trevor simmyon a quarterback for the Jets.

1758
01:29:17,800 --> 01:29:20,519
Speaker 1: And for everybody, I'll say this too. With the schedule

1759
01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:22,120
Speaker 1: fall and if the Bills win and all that stuff,

1760
01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:25,439
Speaker 1: be prepared to adjust your plans for next week's game

1761
01:29:25,479 --> 01:29:27,719
Speaker 1: because nobody knows when any game is going to happen,

1762
01:29:27,760 --> 01:29:29,000
Speaker 1: So well, that's your ear to the ground.
