What I remember, leave town, right 30 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 4: you know. 31 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 3: Tasker has left Western New York. He was quoted as saying, 32 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,399 Speaker 3: screw the weather. I'm done ce in May. Right there 33 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 3: you go, not anticipating that from you. Bill's notes to 34 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 3: get to and as you know, practice notes are brought 35 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 3: to you by Leecom your Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. 36 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 3: And it begins with three players trying to return from injury. 37 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 3: Matt Mulano, Ed Oliver Spencer Brown back on the practice field. 38 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 3: All three of them are participating on a limited basis today. 39 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 3: Oliver's been dealing with the ankle injury he's been out 40 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 3: since week one, Milano with a peck injury he's been 41 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 3: out since week two, and then Spencer Brown missed last 42 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 3: week's game with a cafe injury. All of them limited 43 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 3: in practice, which is certainly a good sign in their 44 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 3: road to recovery. Meanwhile, linebacker Dorian Williams not practicing today. 45 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 3: He came out of last week's game with a langagery, 46 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 3: so we'll have to see where that goes through the 47 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 3: course of the week. Coach McDermott also confirmed that no 48 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 3: one on injured reserve will open their twenty one day 49 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 3: practice window today. Maxwell Harriston, Tyler Bass and Tyler Tyler 50 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 3: Grable all had the opportunity to begin practicing as soon 51 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 3: as they're healthy now because they've been on IR for 52 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 3: the required minimum of four games, so as soon as 53 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 3: they're healthy, good to go, medically's cleared. 54 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 4: I'll say that, like most that's a little bit of 55 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 4: a disappointment that none of those guys are going to 56 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 4: be acnomic. It may change tomorrow, we don't know right 57 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 4: but it also could be that they want to find 58 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 4: out about the roster before they put those guys. Plug 59 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 4: those guys in and get them up. They've got some 60 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 4: other because we've heard Sean McDermott and we've been noticing, 61 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 4: you know, how they're shifting around at the bottom of 62 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 4: the roster is like a constant churn right now. The punter, 63 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 4: the whole thing, Special teams guys, guys off the practice squad, 64 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 4: guys are signing back on to the practice squad. So 65 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 4: I think there's a chance that even if those guys 66 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 4: you talked about, Max Harriston, Tyler Bass, Hyland Grab but 67 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 4: all those guys were, you know, getting close, they still 68 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 4: might say, eh, just wait. You know, I don't know 69 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 4: if that would happen. 70 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 5: But. 71 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 2: Maybe we'll see. 72 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 4: I mean, I know they're tinkering with the roster every week, 73 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 4: more so than we've ever seen. 74 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 3: The Bills, to Steve's point, have a new punter, veteran 75 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 3: Mitch Wishnowski, six year veteran. Wishnowski has a career net 76 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 3: punting average of forty point seven yards, and we already 77 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 3: saw him today working with Reid Ferguson. Because Steve can 78 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 3: speak to this probably more than I can. But every 79 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 3: punter has a preference as to where they want the 80 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 3: ball snapped in reference to their body. Sometimes someplace where 81 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 3: they can catch it well right. But what I'm getting 82 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 3: at is like, if I remember right, Brian Mormon always 83 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 3: wanted it right on his right hip, like snap it 84 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 3: to my right hip. And yes, long snappers in the 85 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 3: NFL can be that precise. So every punter has a 86 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 3: different preference. So they got to get on the same 87 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 3: page with that they were working on that and practice today. 88 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, long snappers are unique dudes. They they always talk about, Oh, 89 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 4: the holder's got to get the laces right and the 90 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 4: late The holder only messes with the laces if the 91 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 4: punt snappers not doing his job. When they snap the ball, 92 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 4: they know how many revolutions it goes back there, they'll 93 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 4: put the laces wherever they need to. When they spin it, 94 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 4: laces come up every time. I don't have them as 95 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 4: a holder. I was like that, I don't have to 96 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 4: worry about it. I really don't. So I just get 97 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 4: the ball down. It's and it smoothed the operation. So 98 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 4: those guys are amazing with those snappers. But yeah, still Ushnowski. 99 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 4: If you look online you'll see it in social he 100 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 4: had a fake punt for the forty nine ers during 101 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 4: his career and ran like thirty five yards down the sidelines. 102 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 3: Played Australian rules football growing up. He is a native 103 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 3: of Australia. Did you see what his nickname is? The 104 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 3: boomin Onion, the boom I'm not lying, all right, that 105 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 3: was the nickname he got, all right, But yeah, played 106 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 3: nine games for the forty nine ers last year. 107 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 2: Played the last few years for the. 108 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 3: Forty nine ers as their punter, but he is here 109 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,039 Speaker 3: now and he is the third punter the Bills have 110 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 3: used or utilized this season. So those are your Bills 111 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 3: practice updates, presented by Leecom We Go Around the NFL 112 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 3: now presented by Kalida Health, the official healthcare system of 113 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills and New England Patriots. Cornerback Marcus Jones 114 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 3: was named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week. No 115 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 3: surprise there after his franchise record setting performance last week 116 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 3: in the Patriots forty two to thirteen drubbing of the Panthers, 117 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 3: and special teams had a big hand in making that 118 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 3: game a lopsided affair. Jones himself one hundred and eighty 119 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 3: seven total return yards, including an eighty seven yard punt 120 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 3: return for a touchdown and a sixty yarder that should 121 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 3: have gone for another touchdown, and he not stumbled over 122 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 3: his own two feet and fill out the ten punter 123 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 3: got a piece of. 124 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 4: Him he did. Yeah, Yes, that that is a that 125 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 4: is a Naheim Hindz kind of day when if you 126 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,239 Speaker 4: remember Nahim Heines having two kickoff returns for the Bills 127 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 4: against the Patriots, that guy Jones had that kind of 128 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 4: day last week. 129 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 3: Mantle Man, he is a pocket rocket, very shifty build, 130 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 3: load to the ground if he's one hundred and eighty pounds, 131 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:51,119 Speaker 3: soakn wet. 132 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 2: But man, that guy can fake you out in a 133 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 2: phone booth. 134 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 135 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 3: So we heard coach McDermott last hour addressing the media 136 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 3: basically saying, we got to really be on it this 137 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 3: week against this group. I mean, not only do they 138 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 3: have a guy that's leading the league in punt return average, 139 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 3: but they also have a guy that's in the top 140 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 3: five and kick return average, and Antonio Gibson who took 141 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 3: a ninety yarder back against the Dolphins back in Week two. 142 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 3: So this is a special team's return unit that already 143 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 3: has two returns for touchdowns on the season and probably 144 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 3: should have three. 145 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 4: It's a little phenomenon that goes on inside a team 146 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 4: when this kind of thing happens. When you get a 147 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 4: guy that's really special back there, the guys in front 148 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 4: of him pick it up. So now they become even. 149 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: Better at it because they believe anytime he go I 150 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 2: can be. 151 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 4: We can let's do this, you know, let's get a touchdown. 152 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 4: And it starts to have a life of its own. 153 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 3: This is Gibson. Our MSG viewers are watching Gibson in 154 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 3: Week two. This was right after the Patriots had given 155 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 3: up a punt return for a touchdown. They get the 156 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,079 Speaker 3: ensuing kickoff, take it, take it back ninety yards and 157 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 3: they ended up beating the Dolphins, as we know, thirty 158 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 3: three twenty seven back in Week two. 159 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's yeah, it's gonna be something that bears 160 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 4: watching in this game. It'll be interesting and fun for 161 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 4: fans to take a gander at how these two teams 162 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 4: battle it out, because the Bills know, I mean, there's 163 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 4: no escaping it. You got to button it up against 164 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 4: this team. Yeah. 165 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 3: So he had one hundred and sixty seven total punt 166 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 3: return yards last week. That is a Patriots single game record, 167 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 3: and his punt return average against the Panthers was fifty 168 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 3: five point seven. Let's just hope it doesn't look anything 169 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 3: like that against the Bills. I don't imagine it will, 170 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 3: but yeah, Chris Taber is going to be drilling his 171 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 3: guys to the hilt. And all you need to do 172 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 3: is put that film up and everybody sits up straight 173 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 3: in their chair real fast. 174 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 4: Right, There's no escape in it. It's Yeah, you don't 175 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 4: want to be that group. You don't want to be 176 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 4: on the wrong that pukes up a touchdown for the 177 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 4: other team. Yeah, that's nothing worse. 178 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 3: And that was largely the reason why the Patriots ran 179 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 3: off and left the Panthers, because they get a touchdown 180 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 3: on special teams, then they get a long return, they 181 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 3: got a drive start inside the opponent's fifteen yard line, 182 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 3: and they had another short field. So it went a 183 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 3: long way in why they put up forty two on 184 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 3: the Panthers last week. Not looking good for Bucks feature 185 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 3: back Bucky Irving, who was spotted at Buck's practice today 186 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 3: with his left foot in and am mobilizer boot. He 187 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 3: suffered a foot injury in last week's game and his 188 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 3: status is in doubt for Tampa Bay's game Sunday against the. 189 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: Seahawks in Seattle. 190 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 3: He's reportedly seeking second opinions but not practicing today with 191 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 3: his foot in a mobilizer boot. 192 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 2: There's a new. 193 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 3: Starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns, and it's rookie third 194 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 3: round pick Dylan Gabriel. Add another name to the list. 195 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 3: You know all those Browns fans that have all the 196 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 3: quarterbacks that have started. 197 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 4: Since forty plus names, forty plus quarterbacks, yes on the 198 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 4: quarterback list. There's forty plus names on that list. 199 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 6: Yes. 200 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 3: So rookie third round pick Dylan Gabriel will take over 201 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 3: for Joe Flacco, who was benched after being relatively ineffective 202 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 3: through a horrible interception last week. He threw it to 203 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 3: a side of the field where there wasn't even a teammate. 204 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 4: Well, there was a guy that cooked up short and 205 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 4: he threw it and there was. 206 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 2: Like, oh, you're not going there. 207 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, the Lions guy walked went over it was. It 208 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 4: was so bad. 209 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 2: He could have had a picnic over there and then 210 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 2: caught the ball. 211 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 4: Yes, And the only thing that saved it from being 212 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 4: worse was the fact that it was thrown out of bounds. 213 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 4: That the guy had to work tiptoe the side like 214 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 4: tiptoe to keep his feet in otherwise he's going the 215 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 4: other way. Yeah, it looked bad. It really looked bad. 216 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, but Flacco will serve as the backup, which means 217 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 3: fifth round pick schud Or sand remains the number three. 218 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 4: Huge conversation going on in the media now. 219 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 3: Well, people think something is wrong with Shadur because Flacco 220 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 3: gets benched and he doesn't move up the death charge, So. 221 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 2: People just automatically assume something's wrong. 222 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 4: Well, there's also the realization that about three weeks ago, 223 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 4: Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said, yeah, we were 224 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,679 Speaker 4: gonna take Shadur. We called him and said, hey, we're 225 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 4: going to take you in the NAT and Shadour said, no, 226 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 4: I don't want to go there. I don't want to 227 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 4: sit behind. I don't want to I want a chance 228 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 4: to try and start. Don't take me. Well, now they're 229 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 4: sitting there. 230 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 3: Nothing like turning down employers, potential employers. 231 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 4: Like a quality organization. This he went to Cleveland instead 232 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,599 Speaker 4: of Baltimore. Think about the difference in those two organizations historically. 233 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 4: It's unbelievable. So now what it means is Shadur turned 234 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 4: down the opportunity to be the guy behind Lamar Jackson 235 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 4: in Baltimore because he didn't want. 236 00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 2: To be back at Baltimore or the Chargers. 237 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 4: No, it's Baltimore, you said the Chargers, John Harbaugh, John Harbor, 238 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 4: you said Jim Harbin in Baltimore. They said we're gonna 239 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 4: take him. He said, don't do it. Yeah, I don't 240 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 4: want to back. 241 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 2: Up Lamar gotcha all right, Well, he'd be playing right, 242 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,439 Speaker 2: he'd be playing because it doesn't look like Lamar is gonna. 243 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 4: Play for a quality team for a team that's like 244 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 4: getting it. Obviously they're one and three. I get all that, 245 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 4: and dude, you could not have messed it up worse. 246 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 4: It's almost the point where maybe he's doing this somehow. 247 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 4: He says, you know what I'm gonna wherever I get drafted. 248 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 4: I know I'm not gonna be a first round pick. 249 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 4: So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna blow it 250 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 4: up in my first stop wherever it is, so I 251 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 4: can be a free agent, go someplace and compete. Then 252 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 4: I'm gonna then I'm gonna do right. 253 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 2: It's kind of a dangerous way to live in this league. 254 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 4: It almost looks like that's what he's thinking. 255 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 2: Maybe he turned I know one thing's probably for sure, 256 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 2: Cleveland wasn't his first. 257 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,079 Speaker 4: Well, that's where. 258 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 2: You don't get to pick. 259 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 4: Well he can. Maybe he's gonna try and do the 260 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 4: same thing Baker's done. Right. 261 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 2: At least Baker laid it on the line for that team. 262 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 3: Yes, he did, played hurt, all that stuff he did, 263 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 3: tried to make it work. 264 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 4: Now, Shador can just wait out his contract and become 265 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 4: a free agent. 266 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 2: That's a three year wait after this year. Good luck 267 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 2: with that. 268 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 4: He can learn everything he can learn, get better, work 269 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 4: on it the whole thing. 270 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 3: Cleveland is one and three on the season. They play 271 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 3: Minnesota in London this weekend. So now from the twenty 272 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 3: twenty five draft class, he got three quarterbacks starting cam 273 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 3: Ward and Tennessee Jackson Dart with the Giants and now 274 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 3: dealing Gabriel with the Browns. 275 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 2: Interesting. 276 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 3: Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill will not need another surgery 277 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 3: after undergoing a major procedure Tuesday to repair his dislocated 278 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 3: left knee and multiple torn ligaments, including his ACL suffered 279 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 3: in the Monday night win over the Jets. 280 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 2: This, according to his agent. Agent said it's a realistic 281 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 2: goal to. 282 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 3: Return at the start of the twenty twenty sixth season. 283 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 3: Good news, according to his agent, is there is no 284 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 3: nerve damage, no blood flow issues, no broken bones. The 285 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 3: knee cartilage is also deemed to be fine. That is 286 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 3: a concern when you dislocate your knee that you rupture 287 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 3: a major artery or something. It needs to be repaired. 288 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 3: So it sounds like after resetting the knee. Only ligaments 289 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 3: had to be repaired, so he's certainly fortunate in that regard. 290 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 3: That's I guess that's the silver lining here in what 291 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 3: was a horrific injury. You don't even like to watch 292 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 3: those on replay. 293 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, that was bad. 294 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 3: Forty nine Ers quarterback Brock Purty wide receivers Juwan Jennings 295 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 3: and Ricky piersall did not practice Tuesday, the only day 296 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 3: of real practice before their Thursday night game at the Rams, 297 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 3: So we'll see what their final status is later today 298 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 3: for the game tomorrow night. Those would be three pretty 299 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 3: important people for the offense not playing if they can't go. 300 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 3: And that's where you get caught on these short weeks. 301 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: Man. 302 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 4: They're playing a Rams team that is really clicking now. 303 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 4: Even so, Sean McVay, the head coach of the Rams, 304 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 4: was talking to the meet it's become commonplace for Niner 305 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 4: fans and other fans of other teams to overpower their 306 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 4: home stadium. So even though the Rams are playing well, 307 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 4: home field is not a home field and San Francisco's 308 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 4: not that far away. 309 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 3: This was interesting with the Broncos set to play the 310 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 3: Eagles this weekend Denver head coach Sean Payton was asked 311 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 3: about the tush push play and he said he has 312 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 3: been a vocal supporter of it. In fact, he said 313 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 3: he stood up in favor of it at league meetings 314 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 3: last spring, and then said, quote, the reason I stood 315 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 3: up in favor of it is pretty simple. If the 316 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 3: powers that be don't want it for esthetic reasons or 317 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 3: competitive reasons like it's hard to officiate, et cetera, et cetera, 318 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 3: I get it, but I've been involved in those for 319 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 3: a long time. And when all of a sudden, health 320 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 3: and safety was pulled into it, which might be the 321 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 3: safest play in football, my BS knows. 322 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 2: Kind of went up. 323 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 3: So he's calling BS on it not being a safe play. 324 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 3: And we remember all of the rhetoric that we heard 325 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 3: in the spring, including from head coach Sean McDermott saying 326 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 3: he was concerned about players safety on that play. 327 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,719 Speaker 2: Clearly Sean Payton has a difference of opinion. 328 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 4: Well, it's a different kind of play because there's no velocity, 329 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 4: you know what I mean. Yes, certainly there's weight to 330 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 4: see if humans weight and pressure, but because of the 331 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 4: short nature of the burst of you know, when you 332 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 4: come out of your stance. Players are kind of used 333 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 4: to protecting themselves down in that kind of thing, right, 334 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 4: So I get what he's saying. I'm it if you 335 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 4: do get hurt in that kind of play, Brownie. When 336 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 4: I think about that kind of stuff and my experiance 337 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 4: back way back in the day, it's more of like 338 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:11,199 Speaker 4: scratches and scrapes. It's not blown acls, it's not dislocated shoulder, 339 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 4: it's not broken arms. It's a scrape, a cleat, you know, 340 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 4: that kind of stuff, and that that doesn't count, you 341 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 4: know what I mean. I mean, guys, that's you get 342 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 4: those in practice for for goodness sake. So yeah, maybe 343 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 4: more guys get scraped and and you know, bruised in 344 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 4: those kind of spots. But he's kind of right about 345 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:37,640 Speaker 4: this player safety thing. 346 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 2: Veteran. 347 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 3: I'm just I'm curious to see where that goes. I mean, 348 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 3: it came within two votes of getting tossed out of 349 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 3: the league as a legal play. 350 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 4: It seems less of a factor these days than it 351 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 4: did last year. I mean, the Bills aren't really running, 352 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 4: bills aren't using it. 353 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 2: The Eagles have run variations off of it this year, 354 00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 2: which is kind of smart. 355 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 3: So but they're really the only team doing it, you know, on. 356 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 2: A regular basis. 357 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 3: Veteran free agent linebacker Eric Kendricks visiting with the Baltimore 358 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 3: Ravens today is they deal with the real possibility that 359 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 3: middle linebacker Rokwan Smith is going to miss some time 360 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,360 Speaker 3: left last week's game against the Chiefs with an injury. 361 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 3: So we'll see if Kendricks signs with the club as 362 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 3: a potential replacement. And the Philadelphia Eagles have opened the 363 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 3: twenty one day practice window for middle linebacker na Kobe Dean, 364 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 3: who has been on injured reserve. So that is around 365 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 3: the NFL presented by Kalida Health. 366 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 4: And yeah, Minnesota is playing in London this week. Correct, 367 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 4: they played in Dublin last week. 368 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 3: They are the holdover team, much like Jacksonville was the 369 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 3: year the Bills played them over there. 370 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 4: Interesting, so you forget how. 371 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 3: Dylan Gabriel gets a team that's lying and wait over 372 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,360 Speaker 3: there and adjusted to the time change. 373 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 2: Good luck you, sir. 374 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 3: I will say this, Dylan Gabriel. The only problem with 375 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 3: him is he's undersized. You know, he's just so was Baker. Yeah, 376 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,239 Speaker 3: I mean, so he's five to ten like two oh two. 377 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 3: And here's the thing I think that's working in Gabriel's 378 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 3: favor over sixty starts in college, and we saw how 379 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 3: beneficial that was last year for a guy like Bo 380 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 3: Nix and who was the other rookie quarterback that did well, oh, 381 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 3: Jadan Daniels over sixty starts. 382 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 2: Both of those guys had over sixty starts college. 383 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 4: Having college not nearly that not that many. 384 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he was only a two years. 385 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 4: I was listening as well. Somebody else was reporting that 386 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 4: in college, Dylan Gabriel was pretty good against pressure. Yes, 387 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 4: although college pressure is not the same as pro pressure. 388 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,120 Speaker 2: But he was Big ten Offensive Player of the Year 389 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 2: last year. 390 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 4: But Minnesota again, right, So Minnesota with with their defense, 391 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 4: they you know, Brian Flores, they bring it. 392 00:20:58,040 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 2: A lot of simulated pressures from him. 393 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 4: Bring it. So it'll be interesting to see how he 394 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 4: does right out of the gate against the defense that's 395 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 4: very exotic and likes to bring a lot of different looks. 396 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 4: Because he did it pretty good up to in college. 397 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 2: Yes, I don't think there's any question about that. 398 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:19,719 Speaker 3: Uh, eight oh three five point fifty won eighty eight 399 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 3: five point fifty two five fifty other numbers to jump 400 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 3: on board with us as we are asking you today, 401 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 3: how do you see Sunday night's game unfolding between the 402 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 3: Bills and Patriots. Bills have won seven of the last 403 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 3: ten against New England, and that's counting the throwaway game 404 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 3: last year in Week eighteen that the Bills didn't need 405 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,919 Speaker 3: for their playoff seating, so they had a lot of 406 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 3: backups playing in that game. Josh Allen played the first 407 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:48,439 Speaker 3: snap and then left the game to maintain his consecutive 408 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 3: game streak. But yeah, it's it has flipped because we 409 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 3: all know how Tom Brady and that Patriots team dominated 410 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 3: the Bills for the better part of a. 411 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:00,160 Speaker 2: Decade and a half. 412 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 3: So how do you see it unfolding tonight, this this 413 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:04,880 Speaker 3: Sunday night. 414 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,400 Speaker 2: It's is the question for you. 415 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 4: The interesting little aspect of this whole thing is the Bills. 416 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 4: If the Bills weren't an established contender with an defending 417 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,199 Speaker 4: MVP and all that stuff going on, people would be 418 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 4: pooh poohing their schedule big time. The they have had 419 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 4: the easiest schedule of any four and oh team since 420 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 4: nineteen seventy seven. I mean, it's ridiculous. None of the 421 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 4: teams they have played so far had a win at 422 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 4: the time they played them. Baltimore was obviously oh and oh, 423 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 4: then everybody wash one oh and two, oh and three, 424 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 4: and now oh and four. 425 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:44,639 Speaker 7: Uh. 426 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 4: But the Patriots are the first team that the Bills 427 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 4: will have played this season that actually has a win, 428 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,160 Speaker 4: and they're two and two. Yeah, So the Bill's schedule 429 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 4: has been an absolute joke. 430 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 3: So the find record of their opponents is two and fourteen, 431 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 3: two and fourteen, and. 432 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,679 Speaker 2: Those two wins are Patriots. 433 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 3: Not that the Patriots have played anybody either, with the 434 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 3: possible exception of Pittsburgh, now nobody. I mean they played 435 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 3: Carolina Las Vegas. I mean those two teams are one 436 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 3: and three. 437 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 4: This four to no record with these wins and losses 438 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 4: of the teams that they have that you know they've played, 439 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 4: I mean, you've got you've got to go back to 440 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 4: like nineteen twenty two, nineteen twenty one, nineteen sixty six, 441 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 4: nineteen forty four to find teams that are even on 442 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 4: the list of had who have had first four games, 443 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 4: and they've got had to have gone four. Oh, and 444 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 4: the teams they played had you know, what was their 445 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 4: winning percentage cumulatively. Yeah, the Bills like coming into this 446 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 4: week now this week, including the Patriots, they're two and 447 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 4: fourteen without the Patriots. 448 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,239 Speaker 2: They're oh and twelve when they played them. 449 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 4: When they played them, yep, so yeah, you can. There's 450 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 4: so the Patriots because of who the Bills are, what 451 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 4: they've done, and all this carryover and the MVP and 452 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 4: all these established everybody's going out. The Bills are the 453 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 4: team be They're gonna be. But if this was, if 454 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 4: the Bills were like the Cardinals, or if the Bills 455 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 4: were like one of the other team, the Dolphins, even 456 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 4: one of these teams is trying to climb out of 457 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 4: the abyss where the Bills were for seventeen years, yeah, 458 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 4: nobody would be taking them seriously scoring points or not. 459 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 2: Yeah right, Oh no, I hear you. 460 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 3: I just I don't know if Drake may is getting 461 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:38,360 Speaker 3: enough credit for how fast he is growing and maturing 462 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 3: and developing as a quarterback. We liked him last year 463 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 3: behind an abysmal offensive line and virtually no one to 464 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 3: throw to. He's got receivers to throw to now. The line, 465 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 3: admittedly is still a work in progress. He's been sacked 466 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 3: thirteen times in four games, although last week sacked only once, 467 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 3: and he is the best quarterback in. 468 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 2: The league on third down right. 469 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 3: Number one quarterback in the league. Josh Allen's passer rating 470 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 3: is one oh nine point seven this season. Drake May's 471 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 3: is one oh nine point four. He's right behind him. 472 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 2: Uh. 473 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 3: Drake May has nine offensive touchdowns through four games. The 474 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 3: only two quarterbacks with more are the last two MVPs 475 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 3: Lamar and Josh. 476 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 2: That's it. Yeah, he's been productive. 477 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 4: They are they're a good they're a solid football team. 478 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 2: And he's got a good coordinator. 479 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 4: He's got a very experienced coordinator. And yeah, this game, 480 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 4: this game is a little bit scary because Drake May 481 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 4: is not a guy that I mean, he's not well. 482 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 4: I hate to say like that. He's not one of 483 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 4: those guys that's gonna puke the ball up in the 484 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 4: fourth quarter. He seems he's mature, right, he seems smart. 485 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 4: He seems like he's keeping it buttoned up, not putting 486 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 4: the ball at risk. He quite frankly won't lose them 487 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 4: the game, yep. And that with a running game and 488 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 4: the two running backs they've got. 489 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, their run game has had trouble. You're getting on 490 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 3: track at times. Again, it's a byproduct of their line. 491 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 3: Still trying to gel and come together. That should conceivably 492 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 3: get better as the year goes on. So maybe here 493 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 3: early in the season you don't fall victim to them 494 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 3: ripping off a bunch of rushing yards on you. 495 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 4: The guy completes seventy percent of his passes seventy five 496 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 4: percent of his passes, and the only guys who have 497 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 4: more touchdowns than Drake may are the last two MVPs. 498 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 4: Brandy gave me that nugget, which is unbelievable, So they 499 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 4: are not nothing. This isn't the New Orleans Saints. 500 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 3: Got to take a break here though. When we return, 501 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 3: we go right to the phones. Ryan and Toronto will 502 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 3: lead us off at eight h three oh five point 503 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,360 Speaker 3: fifty one eighty eight five fifty two five fifty got 504 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 3: open lines for you there. How do you see Sunday 505 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 3: Night's game unfolding between the Bills and Patriots?

I'm telling you right now 527 00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 4: is this game? 528 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 2: I so, how do you here for that? Mentally? 529 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: Know? 530 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 2: And it's gonna be a rock fight? In your words? 531 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,360 Speaker 4: Well, you you don't have to do anything. You don't 532 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 4: have to do anything special to prepare for one game 533 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 4: or another. You go through your you go through your process. 534 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 4: This is how we're gonna get ready. This is what 535 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 4: they're gonna do. This is well we're gonna do if 536 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 4: they do this, we do that. If they do something unexpected, 537 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 4: we've got this in our back pocket. You gotta have. 538 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 4: You gotta mind your p's and q's and plus a 539 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 4: game like this that's gonna be like you anticipate it 540 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 4: being closer because of a division game. You gotta button 541 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 4: up special teams like we've been talking about. You can't 542 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,959 Speaker 4: turn the ball over. You can't do something that tilts 543 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 4: the balance of a very close game like this, like 544 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 4: you expect it to be. I just first downs and 545 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,479 Speaker 4: points are gonna be extremely important. You gotta score, come 546 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 4: away with points on as many drives as you can 547 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 4: by hook or crook. Stay on the field offensively because 548 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 4: you know New England is gonna try and keep you 549 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 4: off with their run game. They're gonna try and get 550 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 4: first down after you're gonna third down and convert third down, 551 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 4: convert third down and convert next thing. You know, nine 552 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 4: minutes have gone off the clock and they're still they've 553 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 4: still got the ball. That's gotta be on their plate 554 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 4: to try. 555 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, they are tenth in third down conversion rate, so 556 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 3: they're not poor. 557 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 2: Pretty good. 558 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 3: Uh, but let's get to the phones. That's game day mentality. 559 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 3: Presented by Best Self Behavioral Health. Let's get to the 560 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 3: phones at eight h three zero five fifty one eighty 561 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 3: eight five fifty two five fifty the number to jump 562 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 3: on with us. How do you see Sunday Night's game 563 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 3: unfolding between the Bills and Patriots. Ryan and Toronto leads 564 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 3: us off. What you got first? 565 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 7: Ryan, Chris Steve love this topic. Honestly. I think this 566 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 7: is a real test for the Bills. The divisional game. 567 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 7: You got Josh McDaniels, You've got Chepan Nicks and Matt 568 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 7: Collins coming back. Their run offense is amazing. Our run 569 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 7: defense it's not the greatest. I can see Josh McNett, 570 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 7: McDaniel's dining about his run place and Breake May over 571 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 7: the top he's up there too. So I think it's 572 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,239 Speaker 7: gonna real test for the defense to see where they 573 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 7: are at. And mcderman and the Bills defense has to 574 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 7: be ready for this national TV and they're going to 575 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 7: show them why they number one seed in the AFC 576 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 7: type to taking that card. 577 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 2: Guys, Yep, sure thing, Ryan, We're in the same boat. 578 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 2: I think this is gonna be I'm following right long 579 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 2: enough his tests so far, this year. 580 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 3: I mean, Baltimore was a tough test, obviously, and they 581 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 3: had to pull it out of the fire to win 582 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 3: that game, So I would put that ahead of this one. 583 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 3: But this game, this one is right there. This game 584 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 3: has the potential to be like the Baltimore game. I 585 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 3: don't think either of these teams will score forty in 586 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 3: this thing. 587 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 2: I don't think the Patriots are gonna but I often 588 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 2: get out to a lead. 589 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 4: No, I don't either, But I think it's gonna be 590 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 4: that kind of tight game. I think you're gonna come 591 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 4: down to it and you're gonna have to play sixty 592 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 4: minutes again. They're not gonna get half a quarter at 593 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 4: the end of this game where Mitch Trubisky's handing it off. 594 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 4: In my opinion, I think I think this goes down 595 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 4: to the wire and it'll I think it'll be a 596 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 4: one possession game. 597 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 3: Let's go to Jane in Buffalo next. What's up, Gene, 598 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 3: am I line you're on Jane? 599 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 2: What's up? 600 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 4: Oh? 601 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 8: Hey, hey guys. I don't. I think it's gonna be 602 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 8: a close game, a tough game, but it's gonna be 603 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 8: a close team because it's in our division. It's all 604 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 8: like it always is, but it's gonna be close. I 605 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 8: figure might be one score, like the other guys said, 606 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 8: but I don't know. I got a question with why 607 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 8: ever since Comba is a Kleman. 608 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 5: No. 609 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 2: Jackson Hawes kid. 610 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 8: Every time, ever since Kincaid's been in, you don't hear 611 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 8: much from mister Knox. Yeah, and I'm wondering why why 612 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 8: don't Why don't they? Well more, he's dressed just blocking. 613 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hear what you're saying. Okay, fair enough, Thanks 614 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 2: for the call. 615 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 3: Jean Kincaid, I think most people would agree is a 616 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 3: more fluid route runner and probably a more fluid athlete, 617 00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 3: and so that's the guy you want running most of 618 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 3: your tight end routes. That's not to say that Dawson 619 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 3: Knox isn't capable. 620 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 2: He certainly is. 621 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 3: But I think in terms of a fluid route running athlete, 622 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 3: that's why Dalton Kincaid was a first round pick. 623 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 4: Uh. 624 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 3: And he also is producing. He's got three touchdowns in 625 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 3: his first four games. He's already set a personal best 626 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 3: for a single season in receiving touchdowns. He's got three already. 627 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 3: I would anticipate that will continue. It was interesting, Steve, 628 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 3: because in the last game, when there were two tight 629 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 3: end sets out there, it was usually Knox and Hawes 630 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 3: the rookie, and then when they went eleven personnel, it 631 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 3: was Kincaid. Every time Kincaid was the eleven personnel tight end. 632 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 4: That tells you a little something about what that was 633 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 4: last week. It could change, right sure, I get it. 634 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 4: I we're all noticing what the offense is looking like 635 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 4: and who they're using because we all have this history 636 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 4: with we We've seen Dawson Knox's entire career, We've seen 637 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 4: Kincaid his entire career. Now they've got Haws in the 638 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 4: in the mix. Now we've got key On who's coming up, Kalishakir, 639 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 4: who's now established cook the whole thing. And you're commenting 640 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 4: on what the offense is looking like, who they're using, 641 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 4: who they're not using. You know, for lack of a 642 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 4: better way to put it, you can miss me with 643 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 4: all that conversation. I don't care the offense is humming. 644 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 4: It's a wagon. Let them do what they do. I 645 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 4: don't care if I don't care if they deactivate Knocks 646 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 4: and Kincaid and they don't even play, they don't even 647 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 4: suit up. Because they're scoring thirty one points a game, 648 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 4: and they come out and they keep doing it without them, 649 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 4: and then the next week, all the time they got 650 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 4: five tight ends and no wide I don't care. They 651 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 4: can do whatever they want. They get free raid they 652 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 4: have earned it. I am not complaining when I am 653 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 4: not complaining. When Kalishakir gets an inside handoff on a 654 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 4: short yardage play and it gets blown up, I forget it. 655 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 4: I don't care. I get it. It looks different every week, 656 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 4: and we're looking for a handle. We want to have 657 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 4: a guy week and cheerful listen, just miss me with 658 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 4: all of that. They are a wagon. They're a wagon, 659 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 4: and that's all you need to know what it looks 660 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 4: like on a week to week basis. Because of the 661 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 4: way they run it. I mean, Keon may have twelve 662 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 4: targets one week and zero the next. It's just the 663 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:14,799 Speaker 4: way it's gonna be. You're gonna have to get learn 664 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 4: to get used to it. They're unpredictable because of it. 665 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 4: So you can miss me with allthough. Why aren't they 666 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 4: using knocks? Why aren't they? I don't care.

Listen, they've got gears no other team's got, 671 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 4: So just miss me with the This guy should be 672 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 4: used that that I'm just miss me with it. I'm 673 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 4: I'm done with it. 674 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 3: And it's not to say that in the everybody eats 675 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 3: mantra that there won't be a week where Knock steps 676 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 3: up and has five catches and two touchdowns. 677 00:34:58,040 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 2: It could happen, you don't know. 678 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,359 Speaker 4: Yes, could happen, of course, and it probably will. That's 679 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 4: the whole point. Yeah, just be Just have these guys 680 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 4: be right when it's their turn, make them ready and 681 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 4: let's watch them. 682 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 2: Then to Jimmy and Kansas City next, what's up, Jimmy. 683 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 8: Hey, what's going on? 684 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:15,360 Speaker 6: Guys? 685 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 9: I could not agree with you more about I have 686 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 9: never heard so many people complain about a team that's 687 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 9: scoring thirty points a week. I I just just it's 688 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,919 Speaker 9: mind blowing. But I got two quick things for you. 689 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 9: First thing is, like I said, the Patriots, that's gonna 690 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,359 Speaker 9: be I think. I mean, I know the Baltimore game 691 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 9: was crazy, but that game is kind of more of 692 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 9: a flut. We needed like every single thing to go 693 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 9: our way to have a chance in that game, and 694 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 9: we just had the football gods on our side on 695 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 9: that particular week. And I think this is gonna be 696 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 9: a true test because I'm really I mean, we all 697 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 9: hate the Patriots, but I love what they're doing with 698 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 9: Drake May because Drake May resemble so much of Josh Allen. 699 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 9: What they're dealing with him is they're bringing them along, 700 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 9: They're they're they're surrounding him now with veteran receivers, kind 701 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 9: of like we did with Smoke and Beasley, and then 702 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 9: you can just see it. It's like they're doing that. 703 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 9: They had the Josh Allen playbook and they're trying to 704 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 9: do with Drake May. And he's a phenomenal young talent. 705 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 9: My last thing, real quick, so I'm the bills back 706 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 9: of president of Kansas City. And see, we had a 707 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 9: special guest show up one Jamie Mueller showed up and 708 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 9: watched the game with us. 709 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 2: So that's awesome. 710 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,760 Speaker 9: That guy is in better shape than half the people 711 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 9: in their twenties. I mean, he's he was. It was 712 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 9: awesome to see him come out and I didn't know 713 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 9: he lived in the area and he just stopped by 714 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 9: and joined us and we watched the game with us. 715 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 9: So with that, I'll take you guys off there. You 716 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 9: guys have a one for one and thank you. 717 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 6: Go Bills. 718 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, his nickname was himI when when we were playing 719 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:46,800 Speaker 4: at and he comes back fairly regularly to Jim Kelly's 720 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 4: golf tournament here in Western New York, which Jim holds 721 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 4: at Terry Hills over in Batavia. Uh. And I saw 722 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 4: Jamie just, you know, a month or two ago. He's 723 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 4: doing great. Yeah, he does look fit. He's tall and thin. 724 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,239 Speaker 4: Now he's he was a little bit heavier. 725 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 2: When apparently ripped up. According to Jimmy and Kans. 726 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 4: It's good to see him. He's Heimi's great, is a 727 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 4: great dude, and it's good to see him. 728 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:11,440 Speaker 3: I think Jimmy makes a valid point because it does 729 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 3: look like Drake May is on the Josh Allen development 730 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,760 Speaker 3: plan because his skill set is somewhat similar. 731 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 2: He can run, make plays, he's dangerous in the red zone. 732 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:28,280 Speaker 3: So they've they've got a guy who whose physical skill 733 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 3: set is similar, seems to have a high football IQ, 734 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 3: and is producing here in his second season. 735 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 4: It's it's part of the job description in this day 736 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 4: and age of the NFL that the guy needs to 737 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 4: have some wheels to be really good. And that's why 738 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,959 Speaker 4: Joe Flacco struggles at times. He can't run. That's why 739 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,359 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones could be a lot better if he did 740 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 4: it more. That's the same thing with all. 741 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 2: That Theel Jones doing pretty good now. 742 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 4: It's the only reason Kyler Murray can be effective at 743 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 4: all because he can get out of the pocket so 744 00:37:57,640 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 4: he can see down the field. Most of these guy 745 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 4: and of course Lamar Josh Pat Mahomes all of them. 746 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:06,319 Speaker 4: The only guy that's probably an exception of that would 747 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 4: probably be Stafford in La. He's he does it without 748 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:14,360 Speaker 4: doing it too much. But it's part of the requirements. 749 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 4: It's part of the trait that you traits that you 750 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 4: want in a quarterback these days. And I'll tell you 751 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 4: why it's evaulted this and it's pretty obvious. It's quarterback protection. 752 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 4: When Dan Fouts and Jim Kelly and Boomeer size and 753 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,839 Speaker 4: Dan Marino John Elway when they were playing, they were 754 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 4: not protected and if they got outside the pocket, they 755 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,759 Speaker 4: were fair game. And I mean it was it was 756 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:37,280 Speaker 4: Tom mahume. 757 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 3: You're saying protected in terms of the rules, not the 758 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 3: offensive line. 759 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 4: The rules. Yeah, I'm talking about you couldn't. You could 760 00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 4: go high on a quarterback, you go low on a quarterback, 761 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,359 Speaker 4: You could close line him, you could. You know, all 762 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 4: bets were off. It was dangerous and if those guys 763 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,919 Speaker 4: exposed themselves by getting out of the pocket and trying 764 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 4: to run, they there was no giving themselves up. You 765 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 4: go down, you're gonna GE's speared and it. So they 766 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,359 Speaker 4: didn't even ask guys to do it back in the back, 767 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 4: back back in the day. Now because of the protections 768 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 4: and because nobody's taking cheap shots at him and they 769 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 4: get protected as they go out of bounds. The whole thing, 770 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 4: the horse collars can only be done now inside they slide, 771 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 4: you can. It's part of what makes a quarterback effective. 772 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 4: So every young quarterback needs to have that in their 773 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:29,800 Speaker 4: arsenal these days. And Drake May is a perfect example. 774 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 4: Josh is obviously right, and all the guys I mentioned, 775 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 4: but Drake May's got all that. And I'll say this too, 776 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,720 Speaker 4: he uses it as smartly as any young quarterback. He'll see. 777 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 4: He doesn't go to it all the time, but when 778 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 4: he does, he uses it and he goes down. He 779 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 4: never takes a hit. Really smart player, and I think 780 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 4: it has really benefited him in his development because it's 781 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 4: gotten him more reps on every I mean, the guy 782 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 4: stays on the field because he converts third. So yeah, 783 00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 4: Drake May is going to be a problem. 784 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 3: Got to take a break here when we come back 785 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,359 Speaker 3: more your phone calls to want to tell you We've 786 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 3: got Mike Tarico coming up in the second hour of 787 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 3: the show.

And there's no problems there. 835 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 6: I cancur with him like Brian, like you concur with him, 836 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:47,440 Speaker 6: because like you call a game, I can cover with him. 837 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 6: Because the reason why I'm gonna say this about Steve, 838 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 6: Steve played on the offensive side of the ball, and 839 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 6: he knows exactly there's no problem on that with the 840 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 6: Buffalo Bill. The question I call is about our defense. 841 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:09,200 Speaker 6: And this is why, even though Bobby Babbage is a 842 00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 6: young defensive coordinator, we're still running the same system from 843 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 6: Carolina and Pantis when Brandon came with the little touch, 844 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 6: little touch of Bobby, throw some salt and pepper ad it. 845 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:26,400 Speaker 6: But we're still running it now as we can see 846 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 6: the whole NFL thirty one of the teams know exactly 847 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,959 Speaker 6: what we do. Can they stop it? Sometime they can't, 848 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,319 Speaker 6: But we got on, like Steve said, like I can 849 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:38,000 Speaker 6: cover with them earlier on the offensive side of the ball. 850 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,799 Speaker 6: We have somebody that can overcome it by putting more 851 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 6: points on the board, which is great. But now moving 852 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 6: forward with this game to your question, not just this 853 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 6: one Monday night, next week as well. We're going against 854 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 6: two head coaches, Rabel and Bulls, who are old fool coaches, 855 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:01,359 Speaker 6: and they're listen. They gonna grind ain't a rock. They're 856 00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,440 Speaker 6: gonna throw a little digging dogs. It might hit you 857 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 6: down the field. We cannot underestimate our opponent no more. 858 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:14,280 Speaker 6: We have to play now defensive vill Bobby and and Sean, 859 00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 6: who I love dearly, are listening. If it was me, 860 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 6: I would take Dorian Williams and I will let him 861 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 6: come every play, whether he coming up the middle, where 862 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 6: he's coming on the stunt, he's coming. He's gotta come. 863 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:32,320 Speaker 6: That's gonna stop that run. It's gonna catch him in 864 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 6: the backfield. It's gonna go personal quarter by getting out 865 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 6: your hands. It's gonna help our secondary these last two games. 866 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 6: That's what I want Bobby and Sean to desire it 867 00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 6: on the defensive side because that's the gap until we 868 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,720 Speaker 6: get our guys back. You have to send that middle 869 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 6: linebacker either way, either middle side. But that's it. I 870 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 6: love the shitting every one of you so much, guys. 871 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:54,120 Speaker 6: I love you guys. 872 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 873 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 3: Look, Dorian Williams is a question mark right now. He's 874 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:01,839 Speaker 3: not practicing today. He's got a leg injury, so we'll 875 00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 3: have to see how that unfolds as the rest of 876 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:09,280 Speaker 3: the week plays out. If Milano's back in the lineup, 877 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 3: you'll have your two most instinctive second level run defenders 878 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 3: on the field in Milano and Bernard. That makes you 879 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 3: better just by virtue of having both of them on 880 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 3: the field. If Ed Oliver returns, now you really got something. 881 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 3: If the run defense, which has been suspect due in 882 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:34,719 Speaker 3: part because of gap integrity and tackling and a lack 883 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:40,719 Speaker 3: of consistency with that tackling, if it doesn't show noticeable improvement, 884 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:45,360 Speaker 3: especially with those two returning to the lineup, Then I 885 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 3: think you have a right to be concerned five games 886 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 3: in if it doesn't look appreciably better, especially with those 887 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:52,320 Speaker 3: two back in the lineup. 888 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:55,719 Speaker 2: I think your concerns are verified and real. 889 00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:59,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, and there's no question that the concern is real. 890 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 4: I mean, they gave up one hundred and eighty nine 891 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:03,680 Speaker 4: yards rushing to the New England or to the New 892 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 4: Orleans Saints last week, so they got to get buttoned up. 893 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:09,200 Speaker 4: There's a lot of reasons for it, and it's never 894 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:11,279 Speaker 4: one thing and one thing only, And I don't think 895 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:15,200 Speaker 4: there's one. You know, I'll disagree with Butch a little bit, certainly, 896 00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 4: pressure and what you're talking about bringing the guy, Yes, 897 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 4: that has his place, but doing that as much as 898 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 4: you're insinuating doing that all the time, there's no one 899 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:26,840 Speaker 4: magic answer to any of these problems that the Bills have. 900 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:28,920 Speaker 4: You got to get everybody to play better, and you 901 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,240 Speaker 4: got to get him to play better doing different things. 902 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:34,000 Speaker 4: You can't do the same thing over and over defensively 903 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 4: or offensively. That's obvious. So yeah, sending pressure and getting 904 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 4: a little bit more out of the pressures when you 905 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,399 Speaker 4: send him would be great and I'm all for it. 906 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:48,200 Speaker 3: I'm also expecting to see a spy this week andrake May. 907 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:50,920 Speaker 3: We saw Rattler get out a few times. They did 908 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:53,759 Speaker 3: not deploy a spy in that game, and he ran 909 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 3: for I think almost sixty yards in the game. Can 910 00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:02,160 Speaker 3: have May doing that because that'll just extend drives, keep 911 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:05,000 Speaker 3: them on the field, and he's He's the same type 912 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 3: of weapon in the red zone because of his ability 913 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:07,640 Speaker 3: to run that. 914 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 4: Josh Is Rattler had six for forty nine eight point 915 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:12,319 Speaker 4: two a carry, So yeah, you. 916 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:13,439 Speaker 2: Gotta have a spy. 917 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 3: That's not all the time, but you gotta have a 918 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 3: spy based on down and distance. We have to take 919 00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,479 Speaker 3: a break here because when we come back, your play 920 00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:22,959 Speaker 3: by play man on Sunday Night Football, who'll be calling 921 00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 3: the game? 922 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:24,279 Speaker 2: Bill's Patriots. 923 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:28,120 Speaker 3: Mike Turrico gonna join us next to give us his 924 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:32,240 Speaker 3: thoughts on this upcoming divisional matchup in the AFC East. 925 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:33,959 Speaker 2: Come in your way next, Mike Rico. 926 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 3: Here on One Bill's Live presented by Colida Health and 927 00:47:35,880 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 3: s Buffalo Bill's Radio. 928 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:17,280 Speaker 4: This One Bill's Live presented by Calida Health. 929 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 3: Second Hour here on a Wednesday Chris Brown, Steve Tasker one, 930 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,720 Speaker 3: Bill's Live and happy to welcome in now the leader 931 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:26,320 Speaker 3: of the Sunday Night Football team on NBC.

It's Mike 933 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 3: Tarico joining us, and Mike, thanks for the time. 934 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:35,440 Speaker 2: As always. 935 00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:39,480 Speaker 3: I'm sure you've already comed through this pile of notes 936 00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:42,600 Speaker 3: for this game already, so I won't feel shy and 937 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:47,080 Speaker 3: asking you this question. Is what has been more impressive 938 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 3: to you about Drake May's play through the first month, 939 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 3: How efficient and productive he has been on third down 940 00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 3: where he leads the league, or just in his overall production, 941 00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:01,239 Speaker 3: because I know he's got nine offensive touchdowns through four games, 942 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,520 Speaker 3: and only Lamar and Josh have more than him. 943 00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:06,960 Speaker 5: Right, I think the overall, I think the year two 944 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 5: feel to this is a lot more comfortable than some 945 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:14,880 Speaker 5: of the other quarterbacks who had maybe a bigger splash 946 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,840 Speaker 5: last year. I think he looks calmer, he looks confident. 947 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,120 Speaker 5: Josh McDaniels, I think is a big factor in that. 948 00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:23,440 Speaker 5: I think we're starting to see that with him. You 949 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:27,480 Speaker 5: know sometimes that third down statistic is a virtue of 950 00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 5: third and what right they were They in a lot 951 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:32,600 Speaker 5: of third and long's third mediums, and they've been managing 952 00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 5: They've run the ball effectively. This is an offense. It's 953 00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 5: got a lot of diversity to it. They don't go 954 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 5: deep down the field as often, but they've got a 955 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,040 Speaker 5: lot of options with both tight ends, multiple receivers, and 956 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:46,359 Speaker 5: the three backs they're used. And I think Drake May 957 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:49,239 Speaker 5: has been put in a position to succeed. Defense is 958 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:53,120 Speaker 5: playing well enough, offense has a lot of options young 959 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:55,320 Speaker 5: the line in front of him playing well, So I 960 00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:58,120 Speaker 5: would say just the field general ship, the way he's 961 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 5: kind of maturing into the position is what is sticking 962 00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 5: with me. 963 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:03,799 Speaker 1: As I've watched two of their four games. 964 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 5: I'm gonna watch the other two here later this afternoon 965 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 5: around the baseball playoffs here. 966 00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:11,319 Speaker 4: Yeah, I've been wearing my partner Brownie here out by 967 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 4: telling him this game has all the earmarks for me 968 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:16,319 Speaker 4: of a rock fight. I mean, I don't think it's 969 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 4: gonna be I don't think it's gonna be a Baltimore 970 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 4: Buffalo game forty two forty one or forty one forty. 971 00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:23,719 Speaker 4: I think it's it's gonna be one of those times 972 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 4: where both teams feel like they're not playing very well, 973 00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:27,719 Speaker 4: you're gonna look up and it's gonna be you know, 974 00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:31,080 Speaker 4: seventeen to fourteen midway through the fourth kind of thing. 975 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,360 Speaker 4: Mike Vrabel has the ability to get that out of 976 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 4: his team and keep it close for you know, it's 977 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,839 Speaker 4: a division game, so one one possession game kind of this. 978 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,839 Speaker 4: This smells a lot like that, despite you know how 979 00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 4: well Buffalo's offense is played to this point. 980 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 5: Well, Steve, you've lived hundreds of those division games, whether 981 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:55,839 Speaker 5: playing in them or calling them or watching them over 982 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 5: your years in the league, and division games just have 983 00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 5: a little different feel to them, and I think this 984 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 5: is part of that. And here's Mike Rabil making the 985 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:05,480 Speaker 5: first statement of where this is. 986 00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 1: Again, this is a division. 987 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 5: I don't need to tell anybody who's watching this that 988 00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:12,399 Speaker 5: they owned and now you own right in Buffalo. And 989 00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 5: to be the best, you got to beat the best. 990 00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:17,400 Speaker 5: That's the old line. And this is if you're building 991 00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 5: a new era in New England, you're looking at what 992 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:24,840 Speaker 5: is Buffalo doing, and you're spending probably more time thinking 993 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:29,040 Speaker 5: about game planning for even personnel selections, for how do 994 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 5: we stop at Josh Allen in our division before you're 995 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 5: worrying about what Miami and the Jets do. It's just 996 00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:38,400 Speaker 5: that's simple. That's the way football has worked forever, and 997 00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:41,919 Speaker 5: I think those tendencies lead to these division games being 998 00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 5: tighter sometimes than the talent gap between the two teams. 999 00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:47,600 Speaker 5: And perhaps we've seen that already in the Miami game 1000 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 5: up there earlier this year. So I'm totally with you. 1001 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,200 Speaker 5: I think this could be a tight game. I don't 1002 00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:55,279 Speaker 5: expect a lot of explosives on both sides of the 1003 00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:57,840 Speaker 5: field for that reason. I think if it gets a 1004 00:51:57,880 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 5: higher scoring game advantage, Buffalo think they've got more of 1005 00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 5: the ability to do that and have done that more 1006 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 5: than New England has done. But New England took care 1007 00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 5: of all their opportunities that Carolina gave them last week 1008 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:12,560 Speaker 5: and flipped the field in special teams. And I'm speaking 1009 00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,719 Speaker 5: to the godfather of special teams here. I don't need 1010 00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 5: to say this on a show that Steve Tasker's on, 1011 00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 5: but when you look at the performance of the special 1012 00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 5: teams of the New England Patriots thus far this year, 1013 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 5: that's a place where the Bills are going to be challenged. 1014 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 5: And Chris Taber's gone his third punter in four weeks 1015 00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 5: and three kickers in training camp. It hasn't been smooth 1016 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:33,880 Speaker 5: and easy on that end, and it's going to be 1017 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:37,160 Speaker 5: tested and challenges. Patriots bunched not just that one return 1018 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,839 Speaker 5: that he saw for the touchdown, but all of their 1019 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 5: returns in general, very very solid group. 1020 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're going to have their hands full there for sure. 1021 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:49,800 Speaker 3: I think most people the past couple of years would 1022 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 3: have if you were asked to describe the Bill's run game, 1023 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,759 Speaker 3: would probably say they are run game capable. This year, 1024 00:52:56,800 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 3: I think it's gone another step. Their run game dominant 1025 00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 3: first in the league, as you well know, and you've 1026 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:05,920 Speaker 3: got a taste of that when you were here in 1027 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:12,360 Speaker 3: Week one. But I wonder if this is probably the 1028 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:15,319 Speaker 3: toughest run front they will face thus far. I mean, 1029 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,879 Speaker 3: the Patriots have done a good job of slowing down 1030 00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:19,920 Speaker 3: some opponents run games here in the first month. 1031 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:20,280 Speaker 2: Of the season. 1032 00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:22,719 Speaker 3: Mike, what do you see there, because that looks like 1033 00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:24,360 Speaker 3: a strength on strength kind of matchup. 1034 00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:29,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, Chris, I'm just going through in my head what 1035 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:33,800 Speaker 5: they've seen so far. And Baltimore started to get injured 1036 00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:36,759 Speaker 5: upfront in terms of the run game when we saw 1037 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:40,720 Speaker 5: them in Week one. But yeah, probably is the best 1038 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,840 Speaker 5: test so far, and New England does it a different 1039 00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:45,680 Speaker 5: way with a bunch of guys. Williams obviously has a 1040 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 5: Super Bowl ring from his Philadelphia time. So you've got 1041 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,959 Speaker 5: one guy up there up front that you're watching, and 1042 00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 5: you know somebody who you try to get two bodies 1043 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,799 Speaker 5: on in double team. But I'll lean back to these 1044 00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:58,080 Speaker 5: couple of items. As I look at the numbers there 1045 00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:01,359 Speaker 5: for the rushing yard leaders, James Cook is taking more 1046 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:03,560 Speaker 5: of the snaps here. Now you know, this is the 1047 00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:07,440 Speaker 5: uniqueness of the Buffalo operation last year where no running 1048 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 5: back played over fifty percent of the snaps for the 1049 00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:12,720 Speaker 5: entire season. And now you look at it and James 1050 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:17,080 Speaker 5: is becoming much more of the guy. And perhaps that 1051 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:21,760 Speaker 5: perhaps the continued development up front of that offensive line. 1052 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,360 Speaker 5: And also, you know, I'll tell you guys traveling around 1053 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:28,440 Speaker 5: doing games with different teams every week, it's so fun 1054 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:31,239 Speaker 5: to put on Buffalo and see usually the same five 1055 00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,759 Speaker 5: guys across the front and Spencer Brown out last weeks. 1056 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 5: Oh wait a minute, wait, this is this is something new. 1057 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:39,240 Speaker 5: It's different because the Bills have had so many snaps 1058 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 5: with that core five together the last couple of years. 1059 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:46,280 Speaker 5: Probably more than any five offensive linemen have played together, 1060 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 5: and that matters. That allows you to pick up everything 1061 00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:53,279 Speaker 5: that's going on and do things that are unscouted, uncoached 1062 00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:55,919 Speaker 5: and adapt to them. So anything they see in the game, 1063 00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:58,040 Speaker 5: they've seen it, done it, and done it at the 1064 00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:02,160 Speaker 5: highest level. So all those factors and I think that 1065 00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:05,239 Speaker 5: gives you that run game. Plus once Josh runs for 1066 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 5: fifteen or seventeen, it changes the temperature a little bit. 1067 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:11,799 Speaker 5: You know, the Patriots haven't given up fifty yards to 1068 00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 5: a running back in a game in the first four 1069 00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 5: games here this year, So they are good at it. 1070 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:21,520 Speaker 5: They focus on it, They crash those guys inside up front, 1071 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:23,960 Speaker 5: and that'll be a place to watch since the game 1072 00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,719 Speaker 5: goes on. Can the Bills control the line of scrimmage 1073 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:29,520 Speaker 5: on offense at their will and at the times they 1074 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:29,920 Speaker 5: want to? 1075 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:33,600 Speaker 4: And you look at what the Patriots have been through now, 1076 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:35,839 Speaker 4: their schedule is, you know, it is what it is. 1077 00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:40,680 Speaker 4: They played Carolina last weekend. The special teams really, I 1078 00:55:40,680 --> 00:55:42,759 Speaker 4: mean it's almost a film you almost have to throw 1079 00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:47,160 Speaker 4: out offensively and defensively, because you know, the Patriots had 1080 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:49,399 Speaker 4: no time of possession. They got beat by ten people. 1081 00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 4: You know, that the Carolina Panthers had all these statistics 1082 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 4: that because you know, the Patriots had a short field, 1083 00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:00,200 Speaker 4: they were scoring on special teams, their offense wasn't asked 1084 00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:02,840 Speaker 4: really to carry the load, and Carolina was on the 1085 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:06,399 Speaker 4: field offensively because you know, well you really almost throw 1086 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:12,480 Speaker 4: that Carolina game out. What is the identity offense? I 1087 00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:14,600 Speaker 4: know Drake may we talk about him in the running game. 1088 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:17,799 Speaker 4: What about the skill play mccollins and Steph Diggs are 1089 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 4: people that here in Buffalo were very familiar with. 1090 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:23,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the headline in terms of the matchup, right, 1091 00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:25,560 Speaker 5: having those guys come back game. But you have a 1092 00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:27,279 Speaker 5: couple of tight ends who have played a lot of 1093 00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:30,080 Speaker 5: good football in this league as well, and our ten 1094 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:32,439 Speaker 5: year vets. You rarely have a team where have two 1095 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,680 Speaker 5: ten year vets at tight end, but New England does. 1096 00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:38,879 Speaker 5: So that gives them the option Stephen Chris to do 1097 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 5: stuff when they want to use two tight ends on 1098 00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:41,920 Speaker 5: the field. 1099 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:42,680 Speaker 1: At the same time. 1100 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:46,919 Speaker 5: All three bats have played and have roles and other 1101 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:50,600 Speaker 5: receivers as well. Kaishan Boody looks as good as he 1102 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:54,479 Speaker 5: has in his career with this offense, and with Josh 1103 00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:58,160 Speaker 5: McDaniel's calling the plays, and so as I mentioned a 1104 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,520 Speaker 5: lot and you mentioned Diggs and Hollands. Obviously they had 1105 00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:03,799 Speaker 5: a guy last year in Pop Douglas who has not 1106 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,640 Speaker 5: played as much because of the emergence of the other 1107 00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:09,680 Speaker 5: and the acquisitions of the other ones. So that's about 1108 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,359 Speaker 5: seven eight skilled players who can touch the ball and 1109 00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 5: we are all into the everybody eats mode in Buffalo. 1110 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,560 Speaker 5: It's not too dissimilar in New England, where there is 1111 00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 5: not Okay, there's justin Jefferson. We have to eliminate him 1112 00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:25,360 Speaker 5: from the game. There's a Derek Henry, we have to 1113 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:28,600 Speaker 5: stop him. There's not really that one guy who rises 1114 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 5: all the way up to the top of the board 1115 00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 5: on Wednesday. And you say this is the focus of 1116 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,720 Speaker 5: everything we do. Everybody does a pretty good job. And 1117 00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:39,120 Speaker 5: those are the teams I think that last right, Those 1118 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:41,480 Speaker 5: are the teams that think they keep you in games 1119 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 5: because you start to take away one thing, They've got 1120 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 5: something else to go to that has worked. So I 1121 00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 5: like what Mike Vrabel is building there. I think that 1122 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:52,960 Speaker 5: roster when you look back, that Gerard Mayo had last 1123 00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 5: year was a poor roster. I don't know who as 1124 00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:59,000 Speaker 5: a coach could have had success with that roster, but 1125 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 5: this year's turn round of personnel and talent there is noticeable. 1126 00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:05,840 Speaker 5: We had them at the end of the preseason last 1127 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 5: year against Washington and walked away saying, boy, they don't 1128 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:12,040 Speaker 5: have much here. They come back to see them for 1129 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:15,480 Speaker 5: us for the first time fourteen months later, feel much 1130 00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,480 Speaker 5: different about this team. I do not think this is 1131 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 5: an easy game for the Bills, who honestly, you know, 1132 00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:23,200 Speaker 5: the four teams they played have two total wins. Ulflos 1133 00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:25,959 Speaker 5: contributed to that, no doubt, but you got a couple 1134 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 5: of winless teams and two one win teams, So I 1135 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:30,760 Speaker 5: think the Bills still have room to play their best 1136 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 5: football as we go through this month of October. 1137 00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,360 Speaker 3: Talking to Sunday Night Football play by play man Mike Turrico, 1138 00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:38,920 Speaker 3: and we should note Sunday Night Football primetimes number one 1139 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:42,680 Speaker 3: show for an unprecedented fourteenth straight years, and through week four, you, 1140 00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:45,840 Speaker 3: Chris Collinsworth and Melissa Stark are killing it Sunday Night 1141 00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:48,800 Speaker 3: Football on record audience pace twenty five and a half 1142 00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:52,240 Speaker 3: million viewers. So congrats on that. And since you do 1143 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:55,040 Speaker 3: get around the country, as you said, Mike, I kind 1144 00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:57,480 Speaker 3: of want to get your ten thousand foot view on 1145 00:58:57,560 --> 00:59:01,000 Speaker 3: this if I could, Because you mentioned how New England's 1146 00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,320 Speaker 3: using two tight ends. We know the Bills have used 1147 00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:05,560 Speaker 3: two and three tight end sets. We've even seen some 1148 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:08,680 Speaker 3: of Buffalo's opponents lean that way the Saints last week 1149 00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:11,720 Speaker 3: with a lot of thirteen personnel. How big a movement 1150 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:16,200 Speaker 3: are we witnessing here with the resurgence of multiple tight 1151 00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:16,800 Speaker 3: end sets. 1152 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I love it, Chris, because we were just talking 1153 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 5: about this last week. 1154 00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:23,320 Speaker 1: This goes cyclically in the NFL. 1155 00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:26,160 Speaker 5: Right, everybody's spread out with three receivers and you know, 1156 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:29,000 Speaker 5: getting fantasy points to everybody, and then now you kind 1157 00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:31,400 Speaker 5: of bring it back a little bit physical and hammered people. 1158 00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 5: I remember when Bill Belichick put a fullback back on 1159 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:36,840 Speaker 5: the roster about fourteen years ago, Go, nobody has a 1160 00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 5: fullback anymore, and then that trend started a little bit. 1161 00:59:39,720 --> 00:59:42,520 Speaker 5: That's one of the fun parts of football is as 1162 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:46,000 Speaker 5: things evolve and adjust. And I think we're seeing you know, 1163 00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:48,320 Speaker 5: when you go out there on the field with spend 1164 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:51,400 Speaker 5: money on nickel corners, right, and Taron Johnson guys had 1165 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:54,080 Speaker 5: one of the best can that nickel tackle. 1166 00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:56,440 Speaker 1: Yours can not every team's can. 1167 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,720 Speaker 5: And because of that if you want to run the ball, 1168 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,400 Speaker 5: now we get you into linebackers on the field and 1169 01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:04,680 Speaker 5: these tight ends and running backs who can catch the ball. 1170 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 5: They've become difference makers. So it's a cyclical part of 1171 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:10,200 Speaker 5: the league. It is fun to watch and see as 1172 01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:13,120 Speaker 5: you go around and you're you're right. We hit it 1173 01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:14,920 Speaker 5: on the head here over the last couple of weeks, 1174 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 5: and a team like Baltimore where we didn't see it 1175 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,440 Speaker 5: as much, will get to more of that as Isaiah 1176 01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:23,760 Speaker 5: likely gets back in the lineup with Mark Andrews. I mean, 1177 01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 5: shame on me, Chris. You know, in our business we 1178 01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 5: like to identify the right guy. I knew Dawson Knox 1179 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,080 Speaker 5: wasn't on the field in the Baltimore game. I for 1180 01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:36,040 Speaker 5: sure thought that pass had to be the King Kaid. 1181 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:37,520 Speaker 5: I did not think it was going to be the 1182 01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,880 Speaker 5: Jackson Hawks. Because we watched Jackson at practice, we talked 1183 01:00:40,880 --> 01:00:42,040 Speaker 5: to the coaches about him. 1184 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:44,520 Speaker 1: We knew that he was going to be a factor in. 1185 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:47,880 Speaker 5: Blocking, and everybody was effusive and how great a blocker 1186 01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:50,400 Speaker 5: he was. And there was Week one making this big 1187 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 5: play down the middle, and that now makes him even 1188 01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:56,920 Speaker 5: more impactful. 1189 01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:59,160 Speaker 1: Thanks for showing the clip. Don't show that. Don't listen 1190 01:00:59,160 --> 01:00:59,920 Speaker 1: to the audio too. 1191 01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:02,520 Speaker 2: I've been there, Mike, I know it. 1192 01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:07,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, eighty eight. They're hard to discern. 1193 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:09,240 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know Knox wears red gloves, if 1194 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:09,800 Speaker 2: that helps. 1195 01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:13,160 Speaker 5: I was just gonna say, I've got those two. When 1196 01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:14,959 Speaker 5: I saw the eight and the five and the six, 1197 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:17,560 Speaker 5: isn't two dissimilar? And you see as he's going there, 1198 01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:20,560 Speaker 5: I'm like, oh that, there's no way. Then wait a minute, 1199 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:23,960 Speaker 5: that's Hawes. That's crazy. Just in the little little announcer 1200 01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:27,840 Speaker 5: panic for the week. Hey, the white island sounds great. 1201 01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:31,160 Speaker 5: The uniforms look amazing. I've got a feeling the numbers 1202 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:32,120 Speaker 5: are going to be a nightmare. 1203 01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:33,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, you might be right. 1204 01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:34,960 Speaker 4: I think you might be right. 1205 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:37,520 Speaker 5: I am prepared for one of those nightmares where I'll 1206 01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:40,480 Speaker 5: say to America, Hey, if your son or daughter is 1207 01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:43,040 Speaker 5: playing the game, I'm gonna apologize right now because I 1208 01:01:43,120 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 5: might not. 1209 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:47,720 Speaker 1: Be able to tell who it is. Thank goodness, into 1210 01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:50,440 Speaker 1: the it's in this stadium and so close to the field. 1211 01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:50,840 Speaker 1: There they are. 1212 01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:54,240 Speaker 5: They look beautiful, They are very cool, very chic. I 1213 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,520 Speaker 5: think the place will look awesome with everybody wearing white. 1214 01:01:56,880 --> 01:01:57,320 Speaker 4: But I don't know. 1215 01:01:57,320 --> 01:02:00,480 Speaker 5: About those silver numbers, Well, well we will hold We'll 1216 01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 5: hold our thoughts on that until we see it on 1217 01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:07,360 Speaker 5: Sunday night. But yeah, this is the factor in this 1218 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:09,360 Speaker 5: Buffalo team. Back to your original point, Chris, that I 1219 01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:12,600 Speaker 5: think is going to be valuable going forward. Three tight ends, 1220 01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:14,120 Speaker 5: they can all play, they can all do a bunch 1221 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:14,680 Speaker 5: of stuff. 1222 01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:16,600 Speaker 1: It just messes with defenses. 1223 01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:19,200 Speaker 5: So it advantaged you if you've got two good ones, 1224 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 5: and I think Buffalo's got three good options here. 1225 01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:23,600 Speaker 4: It's interesting because we take calls all that. You know, 1226 01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:25,800 Speaker 4: Bills fans are all over this team all the time, 1227 01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:28,960 Speaker 4: and they know every in and out and one of 1228 01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:31,080 Speaker 4: the things that we struggle with. We even had this 1229 01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:36,240 Speaker 4: conversation today where the Bills offense doesn't operate a lot 1230 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 4: like other offenses. Meaning one week Khalil Shakir catches has 1231 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:43,200 Speaker 4: twelve targets, the next week he doesn't. He has two targets, 1232 01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:46,440 Speaker 4: and Kean Coleman has twelve targets and James Cook has eight. 1233 01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:50,960 Speaker 4: Card you know that the dot moves around on this offense. 1234 01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:54,360 Speaker 4: You don't know which guy this everybody eats mentality and 1235 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 4: people don't know what to make of it. On a 1236 01:02:57,280 --> 01:02:59,640 Speaker 4: week's week basis, they'll say why did they forget about Dalton? 1237 01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:03,520 Speaker 4: Can care this? And I made the comment, you can 1238 01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 4: miss me with all that because they're still scoring thirty 1239 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:08,440 Speaker 4: every week, and if it works, go with it. But 1240 01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:12,000 Speaker 4: it is an offense that poses unique problems. 1241 01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:16,440 Speaker 5: No doubt, no doubt, Steve, And what the answer to 1242 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:20,920 Speaker 5: that question is when a defense takes something away, what 1243 01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 5: do you have? And playing New England brings back that 1244 01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:28,000 Speaker 5: perfect point. Bill Belichick was famous for being the guy 1245 01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:31,360 Speaker 5: who made you play quote left handed. Took away what 1246 01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:35,440 Speaker 5: you do best as an offense or a defense, whatever 1247 01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 5: it is to make you play, not from your position 1248 01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:39,440 Speaker 5: to strength. 1249 01:03:40,640 --> 01:03:43,120 Speaker 1: If you can do both, then you're all right. 1250 01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:46,080 Speaker 5: So Buffalo last year would bring on the extra lineman 1251 01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:48,800 Speaker 5: and go six linemen and run and slow the game down. 1252 01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:51,320 Speaker 5: Now the team has the ability to spread it out 1253 01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 5: to everybody, the multiple tight ends, all the receivers, the 1254 01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:57,400 Speaker 5: backs out of the backfield, Josh taken off and can 1255 01:03:57,440 --> 01:04:00,960 Speaker 5: do that. So when you go up against a really 1256 01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:02,960 Speaker 5: good defense, and I think there are a few coming 1257 01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:06,560 Speaker 5: here down the line, although the schedule looks very promising, 1258 01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:08,640 Speaker 5: if you if you get out of football mode and 1259 01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:12,560 Speaker 5: go into fan mode, this schedule looks really good. The 1260 01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 5: feeling of a special year is just I think gonna 1261 01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 5: build health willing in Western New York. But when one 1262 01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:19,959 Speaker 5: of those teams has an answer for you on that day, 1263 01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:22,440 Speaker 5: I think you have an answer by going to a 1264 01:04:22,480 --> 01:04:24,760 Speaker 5: deeper part of the playbook and look at what Brady 1265 01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:27,440 Speaker 5: has on that play sheet. Joe can get to a 1266 01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 5: lot of different stuff with a lot of different guys, 1267 01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:32,080 Speaker 5: and you can't walk in and say, if we take 1268 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:34,880 Speaker 5: away this guy from Buffalo, we win the game. That 1269 01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:37,000 Speaker 5: guy happens to be Josh Allen, and you just can't 1270 01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:40,280 Speaker 5: take away the MVP of the league and the way 1271 01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:44,840 Speaker 5: he's playing right now. So feeling really great, like if 1272 01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:46,960 Speaker 5: you took a temperature of how good do you feel 1273 01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:52,600 Speaker 5: in the first month of the season. Buffalo fans probably 1274 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:55,640 Speaker 5: a tick over Philadelphia fans, although if I was the Eagles, 1275 01:04:55,720 --> 01:04:58,520 Speaker 5: I feel great, But Philly fans don't tend to feel positive. 1276 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:02,320 Speaker 5: I can't think of any other fan base or fans 1277 01:05:02,360 --> 01:05:05,160 Speaker 5: that would feel better about their team knowing that the 1278 01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:07,880 Speaker 5: Bills haven't played what is their best game yet. I 1279 01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:10,520 Speaker 5: think they still have plenty of room to improve. I 1280 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:13,560 Speaker 5: think the coaches will tell you that Chris. Chris and 1281 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:15,800 Speaker 5: I talked about this a lot, and he started this 1282 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:18,480 Speaker 5: couple of years ago, and I think he's right. September's 1283 01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:22,600 Speaker 5: become like the glorified preseason where it takes a little 1284 01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:25,120 Speaker 5: bit to figure out who's good and what teams are. 1285 01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:28,000 Speaker 5: And I think now we know, and I think when 1286 01:05:28,040 --> 01:05:29,720 Speaker 5: we look around the league, this is as good a 1287 01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:31,000 Speaker 5: team as anybody in the NFL. 1288 01:05:31,080 --> 01:05:34,200 Speaker 1: Again, so let's be on the ride. Let's enjoy the 1289 01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:35,400 Speaker 1: ride for the next few months. 1290 01:05:35,680 --> 01:05:38,160 Speaker 3: Mike, thanks for the time as always.

I've got a white one like that. 1318 01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:04,600 Speaker 3: The white one I have actually has a gray stitched buffalo, 1319 01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:07,200 Speaker 3: which I think will that's perfect, go right in line 1320 01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:09,280 Speaker 3: with that's perfect for what we have going on. Yeah, 1321 01:07:09,280 --> 01:07:12,520 Speaker 3: I know it's outstanding. And all the people that'll see me. 1322 01:07:13,520 --> 01:07:13,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1323 01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:15,959 Speaker 3: Uh. We got to get back to the phone though, 1324 01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:19,560 Speaker 3: at eight oh three five fifty eight five fifty two, 1325 01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:21,720 Speaker 3: five fifty, because some people have been waiting there patiently. 1326 01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:23,800 Speaker 3: If we've been asking you today, how do you see 1327 01:07:24,360 --> 01:07:27,440 Speaker 3: Sunday nights game unfolding between the Bills and Patriots. We 1328 01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:29,360 Speaker 3: go to Kevin and Hamburg next, what's up Kevin? 1329 01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:31,919 Speaker 10: Hey, guys, how you doing? Thanks for taking my call. Sure, 1330 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:35,720 Speaker 10: I mean this game, except for the weather obviously being 1331 01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:39,760 Speaker 10: wonderful weatherwise, it's gonna remind me a little bit of 1332 01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:41,680 Speaker 10: that game last year. I'm the one where he sat 1333 01:07:41,760 --> 01:07:44,760 Speaker 10: Josh and getting rushed for the playoffs, but that Sunday 1334 01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:48,080 Speaker 10: before Christmas when it was like eight degrees. Of course, weatherwise, 1335 01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:49,800 Speaker 10: that's why I send the weatherwise it will be better. 1336 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 10: But how tough that was, and with a much better 1337 01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:56,479 Speaker 10: coach for the Patriots. And if you really think about 1338 01:07:56,600 --> 01:08:01,240 Speaker 10: being honest, if it wasn't for that dumb ladder that 1339 01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:03,720 Speaker 10: went back down the sewer for the Patriot that one 1340 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:05,720 Speaker 10: letter on what the heck bev out they were doing, 1341 01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:08,560 Speaker 10: we might not have won that game that was that close, 1342 01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:11,479 Speaker 10: even with a young rookie drape May and a much 1343 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:14,840 Speaker 10: lousier head coach. I think it's gonna be like that 1344 01:08:14,880 --> 01:08:17,760 Speaker 10: type of game, except for nicer weather where it could 1345 01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:20,000 Speaker 10: be some scary moments like, Oh, I don't know if 1346 01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:22,280 Speaker 10: they're gonna pull this one off. I think it's gonna 1347 01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:24,400 Speaker 10: be one of those type of games, excepturate nicer weather. 1348 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:26,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would tend to agree with you, Kevin. 1349 01:08:26,680 --> 01:08:31,320 Speaker 3: I think the Bills have to know, have to know 1350 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:34,160 Speaker 3: some of the sloppiness we saw in the last two 1351 01:08:34,160 --> 01:08:35,559 Speaker 3: weeks you can't have it. 1352 01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:36,960 Speaker 2: Can't have it in this one. 1353 01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:40,439 Speaker 4: You just can't much smaller margin of error for this crew. 1354 01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:46,799 Speaker 4: I think, particularly on the defensive side, this an offense 1355 01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 4: that can possess the ball and that you gotta find 1356 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:52,439 Speaker 4: a way to get them off the field. They beat 1357 01:08:52,479 --> 01:08:56,280 Speaker 4: the Carolina Panthers. They threw it eighteen times. They got 1358 01:08:56,280 --> 01:08:58,320 Speaker 4: a couple of special teams touchdowns, of course, but they 1359 01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:00,759 Speaker 4: scored forty two points. They threw the ball eighteen times. 1360 01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:05,000 Speaker 4: That's a problem if you go down that dark hole. Now, 1361 01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:07,879 Speaker 4: this game will unfold much differently obviously than the Patriot 1362 01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:12,960 Speaker 4: than the Carolina Panthers game. You hope, but that's where 1363 01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:16,280 Speaker 4: they're at. They're too smart to do, you know, to 1364 01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:19,479 Speaker 4: give you anything, and that's what the Bills have thrived 1365 01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:22,960 Speaker 4: on at this point of the season. Defensively, the other 1366 01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:26,559 Speaker 4: team has coughed it up at the wrong moment. They 1367 01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:29,439 Speaker 4: have thrown the bad interception like the way they did 1368 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:34,879 Speaker 4: last week with Cole Bishop's interception. The other team has flinched. 1369 01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:39,599 Speaker 4: The Bills have not really pulled the game away from 1370 01:09:39,640 --> 01:09:44,400 Speaker 4: anybody defensively yet. You know, they do a nice job 1371 01:09:44,439 --> 01:09:46,439 Speaker 4: of getting turnovers and all that, but the other team 1372 01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:49,120 Speaker 4: is responsible for the ball security and they have not 1373 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:55,280 Speaker 4: done it. So this team defensively, I think, has capitalized 1374 01:09:55,320 --> 01:09:59,320 Speaker 4: all mistakes. The Patriots don't make very many of those. 1375 01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:04,040 Speaker 4: So it's gonna be a big test I think defensively, 1376 01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:06,000 Speaker 4: maybe the biggest test so far. You know, it's hard 1377 01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:08,960 Speaker 4: to say that with Baltimore playing the way they did offensively, 1378 01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:12,720 Speaker 4: but this is gonna be another big test for them defensively. 1379 01:10:13,360 --> 01:10:15,160 Speaker 2: Break time for us here. We'll take more of your 1380 01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:15,679 Speaker 2: phone calls. 1381 01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 3: Also expecting Keon Coleman in studio after practice wraps up, 1382 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 3: so stay tuned for all of that come in your 1383 01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:24,000 Speaker 3: way soon. Here on One Bill's Live, presented by Colida Health, 1384 01:10:24,040 --> 01:10:27,960 Speaker 3: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. 1385 01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:40,040 Speaker 2: All right. 1386 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,280 Speaker 3: Back here on One Bill's Live, Chris brown stee tasker 1387 01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:45,240 Speaker 3: with you. Expect to have Keon Coleman here in studio 1388 01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:48,080 Speaker 3: in just a bit, and his practice is just starting 1389 01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:50,160 Speaker 3: to wrap up now, so that gives us time to 1390 01:10:50,160 --> 01:10:53,320 Speaker 3: go back to the phones and to Jerry in Buffalo. 1391 01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:57,479 Speaker 2: What's up, Jerry, Jerry, are you there. 1392 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:01,680 Speaker 3: I'll put Jerry on hold and we'll see if we 1393 01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:07,400 Speaker 3: can get back to him. I'm just I'm just looking 1394 01:11:07,439 --> 01:11:09,880 Speaker 3: at this game and I'm thinking. 1395 01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:12,080 Speaker 2: Margin for error. 1396 01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:13,519 Speaker 3: As we said in the last segment, it's going to 1397 01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:16,639 Speaker 3: be tighter. Can't have some of the sloppy stuff they 1398 01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:20,559 Speaker 3: had last week. Eleven penalties, can't have that, losing the 1399 01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:23,680 Speaker 3: hidden yardage battle in special teams, that's gonna be gigantic 1400 01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:24,280 Speaker 3: in this thing. 1401 01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:28,439 Speaker 4: It's this is just a better team than the Bills 1402 01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:31,240 Speaker 4: have faced. Obviously, every team we made a big deal 1403 01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:33,240 Speaker 4: out of it. Every team that they have faced so 1404 01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:37,640 Speaker 4: far has been struggling, except the Baltimore Ravens on Opening Night, 1405 01:11:37,680 --> 01:11:39,760 Speaker 4: when nobody knew what was going to happen. The Bills 1406 01:11:39,840 --> 01:11:42,320 Speaker 4: come back and win that game in dramatic fashion, and 1407 01:11:42,360 --> 01:11:48,040 Speaker 4: the Ravens didn't haven't recovered from it still, But then 1408 01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:52,160 Speaker 4: you know the rest of the way, nobody has really 1409 01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:57,920 Speaker 4: tested this team as close as these games felt they 1410 01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:01,719 Speaker 4: weren't thirty to ten against the Jets. The Jets still 1411 01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:04,360 Speaker 4: have yet to win a game. The Dolphins could not 1412 01:12:04,520 --> 01:12:07,400 Speaker 4: be more on fire, and I mean that in the 1413 01:12:07,400 --> 01:12:10,240 Speaker 4: worst way. They're a dumpster fire right now. And then, 1414 01:12:10,280 --> 01:12:13,320 Speaker 4: of course, the Saints are by all accounts the thirty 1415 01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:15,479 Speaker 4: second team in the thirty two team league. 1416 01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:18,120 Speaker 2: So I don't know if they're worse than the Jets. 1417 01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:20,840 Speaker 4: Well at this point were the Dolphins at this point. 1418 01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:25,479 Speaker 4: But this Patriot team is well led, well coached, and 1419 01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:28,679 Speaker 4: they've got some guys at some positions that are good. 1420 01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:33,240 Speaker 4: They're going to be a problem, and I think this 1421 01:12:33,400 --> 01:12:35,720 Speaker 4: game's going to feel like that, whether the Bills win 1422 01:12:35,760 --> 01:12:37,280 Speaker 4: it or not. I think this game you're going to 1423 01:12:37,320 --> 01:12:41,120 Speaker 4: be able to tell they're playing a team that is 1424 01:12:41,200 --> 01:12:42,480 Speaker 4: not struggling. 1425 01:12:42,760 --> 01:12:48,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go to Perry in Boston next. What's up, Perry? 1426 01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:51,840 Speaker 11: Oh, Hi, thanks for taking my call. A lifelong Bills fan, 1427 01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:54,200 Speaker 11: grew up in the eighties and nineties as a child, 1428 01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:56,439 Speaker 11: but I've been living here in the Boston area for 1429 01:12:56,479 --> 01:12:59,360 Speaker 11: the past twenty five years and I wanted to share 1430 01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:03,400 Speaker 11: with you here locally on sports radio. There's a lot 1431 01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:06,759 Speaker 11: of swagger. I can see the attitude and the swagger 1432 01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:10,200 Speaker 11: coming through on some of the calls here Locally, I 1433 01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:13,080 Speaker 11: almost want to say that Patriots fans are licking their chops, 1434 01:13:13,120 --> 01:13:17,120 Speaker 11: almost saying that they can run the ball against this 1435 01:13:17,280 --> 01:13:20,880 Speaker 11: Bills defense. And but a part of me believes that 1436 01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:24,120 Speaker 11: to be true. The Bills can't rely on roughing the 1437 01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:27,599 Speaker 11: kicker penalties by the Saints and the Dolphins, for example. 1438 01:13:29,280 --> 01:13:31,639 Speaker 11: So yeah, what you thought about that? 1439 01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:35,439 Speaker 4: They got reason to be confident. The Bills have struggled 1440 01:13:35,439 --> 01:13:38,439 Speaker 4: against the run big time, there's no two ways about it, yep. 1441 01:13:38,640 --> 01:13:40,880 Speaker 4: And the Patriots are seemed to be really good at it. 1442 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:42,240 Speaker 2: They're not really good at it. 1443 01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:44,000 Speaker 4: The guys they handed off to were good. 1444 01:13:44,040 --> 01:13:46,800 Speaker 2: The guys that the players the line's still yelling. 1445 01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:52,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, the line still isn't work in progress, but even so, 1446 01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:58,000 Speaker 4: and that's with a running quarterback. The Bills have stunk 1447 01:13:58,479 --> 01:14:01,360 Speaker 4: against the run game. And they looked and they looked 1448 01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:04,799 Speaker 4: probably their worst last week when they had guys falling 1449 01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:07,920 Speaker 4: off that they weren't tackling well to boot last week. 1450 01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:11,360 Speaker 4: So in weeks past, it was, you know, it didn't 1451 01:14:11,360 --> 01:14:14,280 Speaker 4: look as bad as it did lately. So yeah, I 1452 01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:18,200 Speaker 4: can see Boston fan Patriot fans being very confident in 1453 01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:20,040 Speaker 4: their ability to look better in the run game than 1454 01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:20,400 Speaker 4: they have. 1455 01:14:20,840 --> 01:14:22,639 Speaker 3: Plus they're coming off a game where they hung forty 1456 01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:25,120 Speaker 3: two points on their opponents, So now they're feeling good 1457 01:14:25,120 --> 01:14:27,679 Speaker 3: about themselves and they think that they've arrived in the AFC. 1458 01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:32,160 Speaker 4: We'll see on Sunday. Well, they're closer to a rival 1459 01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:34,200 Speaker 4: than the Jets Dolphins. 1460 01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:35,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, but how much is that saying? 1461 01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:40,400 Speaker 4: Not much unfortunately for those teams. So yeah, this is 1462 01:14:42,040 --> 01:14:45,439 Speaker 4: this is this is the division this weekend, these two 1463 01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:48,280 Speaker 4: games against the Patriots and the Bills games, both these 1464 01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:50,120 Speaker 4: games this year are going to be for the division. 1465 01:14:51,040 --> 01:14:51,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1466 01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:54,920 Speaker 3: And if the Patriots can somehow escape out of here 1467 01:14:54,960 --> 01:14:59,400 Speaker 3: with a victory, they're behind him by one game with 1468 01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:03,400 Speaker 3: a game in hand head to hit, so it's not nothing. 1469 01:15:04,120 --> 01:15:08,200 Speaker 3: Let's go to Tom on the West side. What's up Tom? 1470 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:11,800 Speaker 12: Hey, guys, I agree with everybody else, this is going 1471 01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:13,920 Speaker 12: to be an albier. I think it's going to be 1472 01:15:13,920 --> 01:15:17,960 Speaker 12: a crap game, even though they're favored by seven and 1473 01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:20,120 Speaker 12: a half. Now it's eight and a half, which goes 1474 01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:23,240 Speaker 12: you where the money's going. I think it's going to 1475 01:15:23,280 --> 01:15:26,559 Speaker 12: be a three point game. And I was awful close 1476 01:15:26,640 --> 01:15:30,080 Speaker 12: to calling that game last week, because if they'd have gone, 1477 01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:32,639 Speaker 12: if they'd have kicked the extra point instead of going 1478 01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:35,200 Speaker 12: for two, they would have been at twenty. I said 1479 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:37,559 Speaker 12: it was going to be thirty eight to twenty, and 1480 01:15:37,640 --> 01:15:40,720 Speaker 12: the Bills went into victory formation at the end of 1481 01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:43,759 Speaker 12: the game last week. If they would have driven, they 1482 01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:46,920 Speaker 12: could have easily gotten another touchdown and I would have 1483 01:15:46,960 --> 01:15:50,679 Speaker 12: had my score. Just like the forty forty one Baltimore game. 1484 01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:54,320 Speaker 3: I'll do my best TM to prioritize your score prediction. 1485 01:15:54,560 --> 01:15:56,439 Speaker 2: If I get a chance to talk to some of 1486 01:15:56,479 --> 01:15:57,320 Speaker 2: the players next. 1487 01:15:57,240 --> 01:16:02,200 Speaker 12: Time, I'm going to call this one at thirty twenty seven. 1488 01:16:03,040 --> 01:16:07,280 Speaker 3: All right, fair enough, Tom, thanks for the call. Yeah, 1489 01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:10,240 Speaker 3: he's he's with the majority of our callers today, they 1490 01:16:10,240 --> 01:16:13,360 Speaker 3: think it will be a one possession, one score game. 1491 01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:16,479 Speaker 2: I agree, and it's hard to argue that I agree. 1492 01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:21,280 Speaker 4: I just think the Patriots are going to give the Bills. 1493 01:16:21,400 --> 01:16:23,160 Speaker 4: I mean, you go back to the Jet game where 1494 01:16:23,160 --> 01:16:28,200 Speaker 4: the Bills won by twenty thirty to ten. The Jets 1495 01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:33,559 Speaker 4: did everything they could from penalties to you know, all 1496 01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:37,519 Speaker 4: that stuff, and then the Dolphins with the roughing the kicker, 1497 01:16:38,479 --> 01:16:42,120 Speaker 4: the Saints with the roughing the punter. It's just all 1498 01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:48,599 Speaker 4: these teams really helped the Bills in their win against them. 1499 01:16:49,320 --> 01:16:50,360 Speaker 4: The Patriots don't do that. 1500 01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:54,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, gotta take a break here. 1501 01:16:54,200 --> 01:16:55,840 Speaker 3: When we come back, we're going to be joined in 1502 01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:59,880 Speaker 3: studio by Bills wide receiver key On Coleman, agents Z 1503 01:17:00,439 --> 01:17:02,400 Speaker 3: coming up next here on One Bill's Live.

Uh, you know, 1553 01:18:58,240 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 13: all three phases to come up with a win. 1554 01:19:00,920 --> 01:19:06,240 Speaker 3: You you know, you've got an offense that you've been 1555 01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:09,639 Speaker 3: in for more than a year now, and you've kind 1556 01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:12,720 Speaker 3: of seen and experienced how it works, you know, with 1557 01:19:12,800 --> 01:19:16,200 Speaker 3: coach Brady and everybody eats. You know, week one you're 1558 01:19:16,200 --> 01:19:19,479 Speaker 3: catching eight balls and then the next week you're catching three, 1559 01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:20,360 Speaker 3: you know, and it. 1560 01:19:20,400 --> 01:19:22,040 Speaker 2: Varies, and you know it's gonna vary. 1561 01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:25,400 Speaker 3: So how do you mentally kind of approach the game 1562 01:19:25,439 --> 01:19:28,400 Speaker 3: each week? Knowing on any given play, I could get 1563 01:19:28,400 --> 01:19:30,040 Speaker 3: the ball. I mean that's kind of the mindset of 1564 01:19:30,040 --> 01:19:33,880 Speaker 3: a receiver. But in the framework of this offense, knowing 1565 01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:37,479 Speaker 3: I might be really busy today, but I might be 1566 01:19:37,479 --> 01:19:39,320 Speaker 3: more busy blocking in the run game. Like, how do 1567 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:42,840 Speaker 3: you kind of frame up your brain to be ready 1568 01:19:42,880 --> 01:19:43,680 Speaker 3: for any and all of it? 1569 01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:47,320 Speaker 13: I mean, I would say, don't. I don't really have 1570 01:19:47,400 --> 01:19:48,840 Speaker 13: to do all that. It's kind of just I know 1571 01:19:48,840 --> 01:19:49,160 Speaker 13: how the. 1572 01:19:49,080 --> 01:19:50,280 Speaker 2: Game work just comes naturally. 1573 01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:52,000 Speaker 13: Yeah, Like it just is what it is. If the 1574 01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:54,559 Speaker 13: ball find me, I'm gonna make a play. If the 1575 01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:56,400 Speaker 13: ball is in somebody else hands, I'm gonna do my job, 1576 01:19:56,439 --> 01:19:59,240 Speaker 13: make the blocking. Hopefully it springs for a teuzon. But 1577 01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:01,200 Speaker 13: you know, it's just it is what it is that 1578 01:20:01,320 --> 01:20:02,680 Speaker 13: the game of football give me. 1579 01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:04,920 Speaker 4: It's an insight as to how the conversation goes In 1580 01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:06,880 Speaker 4: the wide receiver. You got like five guys in the 1581 01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:09,800 Speaker 4: real well with kincaid and stuff. You got five guys 1582 01:20:09,800 --> 01:20:12,639 Speaker 4: on the team, all within one or two catches per game, 1583 01:20:12,920 --> 01:20:15,719 Speaker 4: per game of each other. You got all have double 1584 01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:18,000 Speaker 4: digit catches. You know the ball is gonna get spread around, 1585 01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:21,479 Speaker 4: but you also know cook they're handing it off a ton. 1586 01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:24,920 Speaker 4: You know they're fifty to fifty. I mean, that's what 1587 01:20:25,080 --> 01:20:29,320 Speaker 4: really fascinates people about this offense because we usually come 1588 01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:32,160 Speaker 4: in and say, okay, like Jamar Chase is gonna get 1589 01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:34,439 Speaker 4: all the balls in the passing game. But the Bills 1590 01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:36,280 Speaker 4: offense people are like a ward key on go this 1591 01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:39,080 Speaker 4: week and word can k go this week? And you know, 1592 01:20:39,120 --> 01:20:41,320 Speaker 4: is that how does conversations go with you guys. 1593 01:20:42,120 --> 01:20:43,760 Speaker 13: We don't really talk about it, bro It just is 1594 01:20:43,800 --> 01:20:45,880 Speaker 13: what it is. One of the conversation that happens, like 1595 01:20:46,479 --> 01:20:49,840 Speaker 13: you get it doing school, haha, now I'm gonna go score. Yeah, 1596 01:20:49,920 --> 01:20:52,240 Speaker 13: And same thing with James James like, shit, you playing 1597 01:20:52,320 --> 01:20:53,920 Speaker 13: like you know, you don't go score that, I'm gonna 1598 01:20:53,960 --> 01:20:57,120 Speaker 13: do it. So it's just kind of that competitiveness within it. 1599 01:20:57,120 --> 01:20:58,080 Speaker 4: It's about the tds. 1600 01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:00,400 Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, you gotta make it count because if you 1601 01:21:00,439 --> 01:21:02,760 Speaker 13: don't score, the next guy get the ball, he gonna 1602 01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:04,439 Speaker 13: go try to score, you know. So it's just a 1603 01:21:04,479 --> 01:21:05,639 Speaker 13: competition at the end of the day. 1604 01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:09,280 Speaker 3: Talk about the conversations that you and Josh had through 1605 01:21:09,280 --> 01:21:12,479 Speaker 3: the course of the spring, the summer, training camp, preseason, 1606 01:21:12,520 --> 01:21:15,320 Speaker 3: because they look to be a lot of on field 1607 01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:19,240 Speaker 3: dialogue just during the course of practice, like just little 1608 01:21:19,560 --> 01:21:24,280 Speaker 3: conversations about the nuances of I'm assuming body language coming 1609 01:21:24,320 --> 01:21:26,680 Speaker 3: out of routes a certain way where he has a 1610 01:21:26,760 --> 01:21:29,800 Speaker 3: tell from you. But maybe just what were you guys 1611 01:21:29,840 --> 01:21:33,520 Speaker 3: trying to button up on when you have those conversations, 1612 01:21:33,560 --> 01:21:34,760 Speaker 3: whether it's on the field or off. 1613 01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:40,640 Speaker 13: Okay, I don't know. It's a lot that I you know, 1614 01:21:40,840 --> 01:21:42,760 Speaker 13: I'm not going to get into details about, but just 1615 01:21:43,400 --> 01:21:45,360 Speaker 13: like you said, just communicating to make it on the 1616 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:47,880 Speaker 13: same page, gotcha.

They're gonna 1775 01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:22,280 Speaker 3: be thinking an awful lot defensively about third down defense 1776 01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:25,799 Speaker 3: because right now, Drake may is the number one quarterback 1777 01:28:25,840 --> 01:28:28,920 Speaker 3: in football on third down with a one twenty five 1778 01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:32,320 Speaker 3: to five passer rating and a seventy five or sorry, 1779 01:28:32,439 --> 01:28:35,320 Speaker 3: an eighty percent completion percentage on third down this year. 1780 01:28:35,680 --> 01:28:38,280 Speaker 3: He's doing pretty good at keeping drives alive. 1781 01:28:38,560 --> 01:28:41,559 Speaker 4: They are hard to get off the field on third down. 1782 01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:44,439 Speaker 4: That's going to be a problem, and it's they're going 1783 01:28:44,479 --> 01:28:47,920 Speaker 4: against to Bill's defense that has been a real roller coaster. 1784 01:28:48,080 --> 01:28:50,920 Speaker 4: They played extremely well on third down against the Jets, 1785 01:28:51,600 --> 01:28:54,400 Speaker 4: and then it's been spotty ever since. 1786 01:28:54,840 --> 01:28:59,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, So coach pretty much said, because I asked him 1787 01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:01,920 Speaker 3: the question today. I said, Hey, this guy's really good. 1788 01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:02,400 Speaker 4: On third down. 1789 01:29:03,080 --> 01:29:04,760 Speaker 3: Is that going to prompt you to maybe spend a 1790 01:29:04,800 --> 01:29:08,639 Speaker 3: little more time on third down this week? Maybe devote 1791 01:29:08,640 --> 01:29:10,760 Speaker 3: a little more time to that and maybe a little 1792 01:29:10,800 --> 01:29:11,760 Speaker 3: less time somewhere else. 1793 01:29:12,160 --> 01:29:15,000 Speaker 2: And he said, yeah, that's obvious. We're gonna be doing that. Yeah. 1794 01:29:17,439 --> 01:29:20,000 Speaker 3: I thought third down defense was better last week Steve 1795 01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:23,120 Speaker 3: against the Saints certainly better than it was against the 1796 01:29:23,160 --> 01:29:25,840 Speaker 3: Dolphins the week prior, so I felt they corrected some 1797 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:29,800 Speaker 3: things there, and even their red zone defense I think 1798 01:29:29,880 --> 01:29:32,639 Speaker 3: was a little better last week. You know, the Saints 1799 01:29:32,720 --> 01:29:34,200 Speaker 3: only go two for four in the red zone, They 1800 01:29:34,280 --> 01:29:36,280 Speaker 3: force a field goal, and they get a takeaway on 1801 01:29:36,320 --> 01:29:36,880 Speaker 3: the Cole Bishop. 1802 01:29:37,080 --> 01:29:40,839 Speaker 4: The Bills are converting forty of their own third downs. 1803 01:29:41,120 --> 01:29:46,320 Speaker 4: They are allowing their opponents to to convert forty two 1804 01:29:46,360 --> 01:29:49,600 Speaker 4: percent of theirs. They're exactly the same offensively and defensively. 1805 01:29:50,040 --> 01:29:52,840 Speaker 3: We'll talk more about this game on tomorrow's show as well, 1806 01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:55,160 Speaker 3: when we got the Hall of Famer coming in Thurman Thomas. 1807 01:29:55,320 --> 01:29:56,000 Speaker 2: We'll see it one 1808 01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:00,120 Speaker 1: M
