14
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: him and he connected. He was expecting it. I wasn't

15
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 1: exciting if the Houston Astros were banging on a garbage

16
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: can in the dugout to clue him in, But he

17
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: had it. I don't need any stinking help. I got

18
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: it all on my own. So there's that. Weather today

19
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: was freaking bananas like it's been. It's been dry as

20
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: a bone here for almost two weeks. Now and then

21
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: this I don't know about anywhere else in Western New York,

22
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 1: but the rain poort here like an hour and a

23
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,479
Speaker 1: half ago. It was like because of cod and ready

24
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: to build an arc. We used it back in the day,

25
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: pre COVID. We used We had a workspace, we had

26
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: an office, you know, the group office. Again we sit

27
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: around him right still waiting for that. But so I'm

28
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: sitting here. This is why because kind of my workspace,

29
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: which is why it looks like, you know, my mom

30
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: and dad's basement when I lived there, but which I

31
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: did move out, But I mean in my workspace here

32
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: is this is where I live, right, So I'm sitting

33
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 1: here and on top of the we have a flat

34
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: roof here at the top of the studio. It sounded

35
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: like the Persian Army was doing drills on top of

36
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: my roof. It well, yeah, because it was loud. We

37
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 1: don't have a pitched roof here above the studio. It

38
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 1: is a flat roof. Sound comes down. I mean you

39
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: hear it, and it's the way it really was. One

40
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: of those things that you're sitting there, you know. I'm

41
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: sitting here on the computer, reading everything and getting ready

42
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: for the show. And it's one of those things that

43
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 1: really made you stop and look up and like, oh

44
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,519
Speaker 1: my gosh, No, it was a bad storm for a minute.

45
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,399

46
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,120

47
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: the weather is changing through the course of this week,

48
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: so you may want to bust the wind breaker out

49
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: again or the rain gear, shall we say, right, because

50
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a little dicey here the next couple

51
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 1: of days. And I think the temperature is dropping too, right, Yeah,

52
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: it's gonna be down like in the forty the forties.

65
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 1: was fighting all the dead branches on my blue spruce

66
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: trees in the backyard, and I was, I know, I

67
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: was telling you this before the show, but I'm you know,

68
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: I'm standing there getting ready, you know, and I'm saying

69
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: to myself, should I put a long sleeve shirt on?

70
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: You know, because you gotta reach in there and you

71
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: gotta you know, I got my gloves on. It's too hot,

00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: you know, And I'm just like, man, it's so dang hot.

73
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm not putting a long sleeve shirt on. Well, now,

74
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: my arms looks like I got in the fight with

75
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: an alley cat or something. I'm like all clawed up

76
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: from the branches and stuff, and uh yeah, I mean

77
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: I pile a dead stuff. But everything everything looks better

78
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: except my arms, right, because I'm all sliced up here.

79
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: I came inside and even my dogs looking at me

80
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: with a head tilt, like, what the heck happened to you? Yeah? Yeah,

81
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: The list of stuff to do around right now when

82
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: everything and and I say this, it's one of the

83
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: great parts about living in this region. And everybody hear

84
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: you hear about you know the you know, rough spring,

85
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: in the in the deep winter, but it's always the

86
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: next season is always, you know, the best when you

87
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 1: go from winter. And then when when we finally hear

88
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: at that point, the last couple of weeks where it

89
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: was gone and gone for good. Yeah, mid May, you

90
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: can just feel the foliage. Of course, the leaves pop out,

91
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 1: they come like overnight, almost seemingly. And then but it's

92
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 1: also about people. People. Everybody's outside, well, everybody's happy. Everybody blooms, man,

93
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: all the people bloom as much as the full Yeah,

94
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 1: it's just the greatest, man, it's one of my favorite

95
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: parts of the year when it's the weather's business been

96
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: made of September is that's my wheel. It's it's elite here.

97
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: I mean it really is. And that is and that

98
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: is true about the people, Steve, because you know people

99
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: on your play, it's like everybody turns into hermits for

100
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 1: six months. Everybody's inside. I'm telling you, it goes anywhere.

101
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: You like, you've just bunker down and hunker down and

102
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: ride out the winter. Yeah, I went. I was like,

103
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: oh my god, I went out the other day. I

104
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: was doing something, you know me, I'm, you know, not

105
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: really the most physically active guy, right, but so right,

106
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 1: So I was doing something outside and I started, godly, man,

107
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: it's hot a god. I was going inside. I like, man, wow,

109
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: she goes, yeah, it's seventy two in humidity is forty

110
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: your bloods up? It might be me. It's funny I

111
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: say that because my because my folks who live in

112
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 1: South Carolina, when they come up here, like maybe they

113
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: might come up in the fall, you know, not the summertime,

114
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: and they come up here in the fall forty five

115
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: degree day. I got a windbreaker on, you know, yeah,

116
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 1: my parents got a parka right. I'm telling you it

117
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 1: is a real thing. I think when you moved south

118
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: and you're living in the heat all the time, your

119
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: blood thins out and so, you know, so you don't

120
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: feel the heat as much. But then you come back

121
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: Norris and it's like, whoa, it's what you're using? What

122
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: the hell just happened there? I go back and visit

123
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: my family they're they're in Kansas and it's it is

124
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 1: really hot. Yeah, and I mean it's hot with humidity

125
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 1: and it's almost you have humidity. Oh my god, I

126
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: should feel like, oh that's right. You're inland. It's you

127
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 1: feel like you need gills to breathe. They're so thick.

128
00:06:55,480 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: It's just like, but you know, it's it's where you live.

129
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: Everybody get used to it, but you're right. And then

130
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: you come back up here and it's like, wow, this

131
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: is yeah, it's all right. I'm gonna be like, it's freezing.

132
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, mom, it's fifty like I was gonna go

134
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: right now? That I can't feel my fingers? But that's right.

135
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: What do we do it? You go down and people

136
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: come up here, and literally if it's if it's clear

137
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: and sunny, it doesn't the temperature is irrelevant. I'll go

138
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: out and people go outside. You go outside and you

139
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: get out in it. I mean you don't even hesitate.

140
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: And anywhere else. I say this people in Buffalo, and

141
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: this is this a bold statement. You can you can

142
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: shoot me down if you want to, but I make it.

143
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: People say, how do you live up there in Buffalo

144
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 1: and that and how you do all this? How do

145
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: you do that up there? I would say this for

146
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: people who have a job and work every day and

147
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: do that, you spend more time we spend here in Buffalo,

148
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: because it's the way it is. We spend more time

149
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: outside here in Buffalo in the snow doing stuff. In

150
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: the summer, then people spend outside in the in the

151
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: heat of the summer in Florida, if they're going to

152
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 1: work inside, they do not go outside. We go outside

153
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: more here in Buffalo in the winter time, and then

154
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: they do in the summer that is inside in Florida.

155
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: My folks do that in South Carolina in their community.

156
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: They say, oh, you better get all your stuff done before.

157
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: That's exactly right, because once you get to ten o'clock's

158
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: too hot. Everybody goes inside. That's right. So everybody's inside

159
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: from ten to six, right, So it's like, oh my gosh,

160
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: the weather is so great down here. Everybody can't stand it. Though. Yeah,

161
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,079
Speaker 1: you gotta go inside to get away from it. And

162
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,079
Speaker 1: we're just the opposite, you know, you kind of you

163
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:44,959
Speaker 1: kind of put your arms around the weather up here,

164
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: and if you don't embrace it. You'll go crazy. Yeah,

165
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,839
Speaker 1: you may as well go to sleep for six months. Um.

166
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: A bit of sad news to pass along. Uh, Bill's

167
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: former linebacker Eugene marv uh just passed away. Just got

168
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: news at at this morning. Born in Flint, Michigan, in

169
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty, Marv was a third round draft choice of

170
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills in nineteen eighty two at a Saginaw

171
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: Valley state and was a starter from his rookie season.

172
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: Played six years with the Bills and then finished up

173
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: in Tampa and then the final year in the league

174
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 1: in San Diego. Productive linebacker for Buffalo just during some

175
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: of those lean years. And I think he was your

176
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 1: teammate for a short time steep in eighty six and

177
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: eighty seven. He was a great guy. And you know, you'

178
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: se easy to say that now that you know he

179
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 1: really was really great smile, just a wonderful guy and

180
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,839
Speaker 1: really positive. I played down in Tampa Bay, I think

181
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 1: after he left Buffalo and and from for me, I mean,

182
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: he's a year older than me, and to see that

183
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: he's gone, it's you know, it's kind of it's a

184
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: little bit profound for a little bit more profound for me.

185
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: Of course I hadn't. I didn't, we didn't keep in touch.

186
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: I didn't hadn't spoken to him for for years. But um,

187
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,679
Speaker 1: you know, you remember about being a teammate and the

188
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: kind of guy he was in the locker room, the

189
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: kind of human being he was. It's uh, it's pretty,

190
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: it's it's you know, it's one of those moments in

191
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: your life where you think, wow, that I was a

192
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: friend of mine. Yeah, Um, sad to see. And I

193
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: was absolutely it's chocked by it, you know. And uh, yeah,

194
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: sixty years old and and gone. So he was an

195
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: NFL player, had a very nice career and was on

196
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: too better things, uh as uh as his life went on.

197
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 1: But man, that's something it's yeah, it's it was sad

198
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: to hear for me. Seventy six career games with the Bill,

199
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 1: seventy four of which he started, one interception, five fumble recoveries.

200
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: So uh, productive player for them. Uh, just was here

201
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: at a tough time when winning was not easy to

202
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: come by. Uh. He struggled through those eighty four and

203
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: eighty five seasons, which was probably one of the top

204
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 1: low marks of the franchise unfortunately, And it's too bad

205
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: because when you're when you're on teams that struggle that much,

206
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: it's hard not to be overlooked. Um, just because your

207
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: team as a whole is you know, for lack of

208
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: a better term, and also ran and you know you

209
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: could be playing lights out. Yeah, but this is a

210
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: team game and if the team's struggling, it's it's hard

211
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 1: to get that recognition. So, uh, thoughts and prayers to

212
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 1: Eugene Marv's family at this time. So it's been it's

213
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 1: been a rough year plus for a lot of people,

214
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: um and now we're finally coming out of it. And

215
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,199
Speaker 1: something like this happens to your family, that's a tough

216
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 1: one to swallow. So thoughts and prayers to Eugene Marv's

Speaker 1: Like do people care about this enough? Maybe a little

229
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 1: too much? I don't like, I don't know, Like, yes,

230
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: it'll be news when he shows up or says I'm

00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,079
Speaker 1: not coming, when his mandatory minicamp, and then we'll have sportings.

232
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: You know, it was I and I some of the

233
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: people who wrote about his appearance on Sports Center with

234
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: Kenny Maine. As Kenny Maine said goodbye to Sports Center

235
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: for the final time. I mean I was, I gotta

236
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: tell you, I know what we do, what we do

237
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: for living brownie. But I cared more about Kenny Maine

238
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: tiring from his sports that Rogers anyway. So anyway, uh,

239
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: he said, you know, he said so much about he

240
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: I love my teammates, I love my coaches. I love

241
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: the fans. You know this, you know, the town, the

242
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: fans of the stadium, all of that stuff. I love

243
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: the only and by their omission. Obviously, he didn't say

244
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 1: he loved the front office. Um It's something's going on

245
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,560
Speaker 1: with Aaron Rodgers and the Packers, no question about it.

246
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: And I've said this many times that it rarely ends

247
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 1: well for the great ones. It does sometimes, but it

248
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: rarely ends well. Look at Brett Farve and Joe Montana,

249
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: Johnny Unitus, Joe Namath, all of those guys, even for

250
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 1: Steve Young and and you know, even to a certain

251
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 1: extent Jim Kelly where they you know, carred him off

252
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: the field and the last time and Steve Young going

253
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 1: out with concussions. Um, other great ones like Jerry Rice,

254
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: you know, getting cut from I think like or like

255
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: Andre Reid getting cut from the Denver broncos us he

256
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 1: tried to continue his career. It rarely ends well for

257
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: the great one. How it's gonna end with Aaron Rodgers?

258
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: I think this says and lays the ground work for

259
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: it to be kind of ugly there too. Um, it

260
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: might be ugly already. I mean you could probably make

261
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 1: that characterization. Now the guy's coming off an MVP season

262
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: and the relationship is fractured. What the hell happened? Um?

263
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: So yeah, And speaking of Rogers, he is now gonna

264
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 1: be in a in a sponsored match play golf event.

265
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 1: It's him and Bryson Deshambo, the twenty twenty US Open champion,

266
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: against Tom Brady and Phil Mickelson. Remember Phil Mickelson took

267
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: on Tiger and Peyton Yeah Manning a year or two ago.

268
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 1: I you know, I'm everybody know. You know it. A

269
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: lot of people know. I'm a golf guy. I love playing.

Speaker 1: I play a lot. I'm gonna be watching this. I'm

277
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: available on Bleacher Report. Um, all of this stuff's gonna

278
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: be happening. They're gonna, of course, they're gonna maximize it.

279
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: And in this day and age, is a lot of

280
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: us gonna be over the top of the Internet and

281

Speaker 1: that kind of thing. They're gonna be access to it.

282
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: And Brady, could they have gotten a little bit better

283
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 1: photo for Phil Mickelson. I mean he looks like a

284
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 1: muppet with the with the facial expression he's got right now,

285
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: I mean looking to do right by Lefty here though,

286
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: I mean he I don't know, he's a little bug eyed. Well,

287
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: how's come Bryson D. Shambo's golf chef goes over his

288
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: older and goes right the right in the jugular right.

289
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: I mean, that's weird. This was thrown together. I fear

290
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 1: um at Big Sky Montana. That's kind of cool. Yeah,

291
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: And I know our MSG viewers are getting to look

292
00:15:55,560 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: at the graphic right now. But my gosh, like help Michelson. Now,

293
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 1: I mean there's plenty of photos where he's got a

294
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: nice smile on, even from last Sunday. You gotta do

295
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: better by my guy Lefty there, come on, that's terrible. Uh.

296
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: And and taking it a step further, Tom Brady is

297
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: already chirping at Aaron Rodgers. Right. Um. Apparently Aaron beat

298
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: him on the golf course the last time they had

299
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: a chance to play around together. Nine holes. Actually, he said,

300
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: Aaron made a put at the end to win, so

301
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: I was a little pissed about that. I always enjoy

302
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: my time around him. Still trying to get him back

303
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: on the golf course though, so it looks like that

304
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: will happen July sixth. So I think there's a lot

305
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: to like about his play and his ability to pass

306
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: the football, Brady said at Rodgers. I think everybody's always

307
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 1: pretty much in awe of how he makes it look

308
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: so easy. Just the throwing motion, the velocity of the

309
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 1: policement of the ball came out. It's fine, yeah, all right, stop,

310
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: that's enough. There. I need each other on the back.

311
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: Oh you're great. No, you're great. Nah, you're great. Okay,

312
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: we and great, aren't we great? Yeah? And then you

313
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: know the it all started too because of the video

314
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: that came out about brooks Keepka and Bryson d Shambo

315
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 1: exchanging hatred at the apparently nonverbal hatred at the at

316
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: the end of the PGA tournament this last weekend. So

317
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 1: everybody's saying, Wow, wouldn't it be great if they got

318
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 1: Bryson de Shambo and Brooks Kepka in a group together,

319
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 1: So maybe we'd see a fist fight instead of a

320
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: golf match. Uh. That happened, and and we thought, who

321
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 1: would you who would you like to see teamed up

322
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 1: as a golf crew? Right? Yeah, you could get real clever.

323
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 1: You could get clever, you could get interesting. It could

324
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:40,919
Speaker 1: be Adam Sandler as Happy Gilmore teamed with Richie Incognito. Again,

325
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,680
Speaker 1: you're going completely off the grid here. You're not even

326
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:51,200
Speaker 1: putting a PGA guy against uh tin Cup. I guess

327
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: John Daley and Robert Baktiar that David David Bactieri who

328
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: guzzles beer and get basketball games. That would be good.

329
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:02,479
Speaker 1: That's a good match. Well we're Taylor Luan. Yeah, Taylor,

330
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: he's a he can sit this one out. Yeah, I don't.

331
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 1: Are you a fan of guys talking smack on the

332
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: golf course while they're playing for tea made for TV events?

333
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,360
Speaker 1: You gotta have something, yeah, I mean for a made

334
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 1: for TV event, you need some of that. That's why

335
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: Barkley is so good on those. That's why they have

336
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: to win. Tiger's on those things, he's like a clam.

337
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 1: You can't get him to talk. You're turable. They gotta

338
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 1: have somebody talk for Tiger because Tiger clams up and

339
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: starts to get into that let you know, laser beam Tiger.

340
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 1: You know, like Tiger, he's a robot. Loosen up. Yeah, night,

341
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,439
Speaker 1: not a fun guy, yeah, once he steps on the

342
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 1: golf course. So yeah, uh yeah, there'd be some good

343
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: combinations you could probably come up with. Um, I guess

344
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 1: Romo is really good at playing golf. Um, yeah, Fitz

345
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: isn't bad. Fits would be fun? Who I was thinking,

346
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick fit and name your name your pro like

347
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 1: always thinking like a Fitz and Greg Norman against somebody

348
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:13,879
Speaker 1: like Nick Fouldo and Tony Romo somebody like that. That

349
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,640
Speaker 1: would be tough. Everybody be cheering. It would be good

350
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 1: to who who would be good to pair Josh with?

351
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: Because Josh likes golf? Can you tell me to see

352
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:24,479
Speaker 1: him over there all the time? See him every day

353
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 1: over there? Um or he sees me? I don't know

354
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 1: what's the words I happened to here that Well, he's

355
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:35,880
Speaker 1: easier to spot, you are, right, Josh? Who would it be? Josh?

356
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: And I was current tour pro? Well you what, you've

357
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 1: played a couple of rounds with him, right, haven't you? Put? Yeah?

358
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 1: So what can I know? So his game would pair

359
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 1: nicely with whom? Do you think? Give me? Give me

360
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: an irons guy? Right? The guy was good with the

361
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: irons And yeah, that's a good one. I would think

362
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,679
Speaker 1: I like go young and old kind of thing. Oh,

363
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: that's the thing with this Phil Mickelson, Tom Brady the

364
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 1: old guy. Well, of course, you know Aaron Rodgers is

365
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:05,400
Speaker 1: no spring Chicken. Lee Trevino, right, Lee Trevino, And yeah, um,

366
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: I've played with Lee Trevino too. Let's see Josh Allen

367
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 1: paired with that's a really good question. Yeah, I just

368
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 1: figured you knew his game a little bit, so I

369
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 1: thought you could give us a good. Will it be

370
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: a guy like it'd be a guy who can really

371
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: really who got the middle of George Speith would be good.

372
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: Josh and Speith would be like that because because Josh

373
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,119
Speaker 1: probably his young guns, he hits it a ton further

374
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: than Speith. But Speith is like you know, plus Speith

375
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 1: is all over the map. He'll take an eight and

376
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: then he'll take a two, you know, so um sugar,

377
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 1: which is a little bit Yeah, it's a little bit

378
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: like Josh. Right, So those two would be Speith and Josh.

379
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,119
Speaker 1: Who's the arch rival of our guy. It's gotta be

380
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:57,440
Speaker 1: Mahomes and Arnold huge, Yeah, it could be Mahomes and

381
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: who else? Who do we not? And Brooks? I don't

382
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: know about that. I don't know if I like that pairing.

383
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: It might be, um, who's the uh you know that

384
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 1: Machel Roy and Rory would be a good one, or um,

385
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: who's the guy with the with the flat brim hat?

386
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: Ricky Fowler? What about Fowler? Oh, Ricky Fowler would be

387
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: a really good one. Yeah, yeah, that that would be

388
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 1: really good because they they chit chat a little bit

389
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,159
Speaker 1: while they did it. Ricky Fowler's a little bit of

390
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 1: a talk right, He's a you know, he's all right.

391
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,680
Speaker 1: But for TV event, that would be good. Ricky Fowler

392
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: and against Speeth and Josh Allen, that would be watched.

393
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: I don't even watch golf. Watch that we would watch.

394
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 1: I would watch that. We would would absolutely watch. I

395
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:51,479
Speaker 1: don't know, somebody else text call us or tweet at

396
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,320

398
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: way up on it too. I think we did all

399
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,080
Speaker 1: right there with some of those pairings that was I

400
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: can see, like Colin Morikawa or her, Deckie matsu Yama,

401
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: the guy ums. I like their games as well. Then

402
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: you know Justin Rose is great. Um, they got some

403
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 1: guys now, man, it's a deep field. It's neck deep.

404
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 1: Dustin Johnson, right, yeah, DJ, Dustin Johnson. You know, Dustin

405
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,359
Speaker 1: Johnson and Josh Allen. You could put them on an

406
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 1: eight thousand yard course and they wouldn't even blink. They'd

407
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 1: be hitting mid irons. And I'm telling you many this

408
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: is a part five. I'm gonna hit that. What it is?

00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 1: You go? Just you go, Dustin Johnson and Josh two

410
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 1: guys that are six five six four against like, uh,

00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,360
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, what are you gonna go? Short? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,

412
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: I knew you were right. I knew where you were

413
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: going with this. It'd be I don't even like like

414
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 1: it would be Ian Woosnam the old time, Oh my gosh,

415
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: or Corey Paven same thing. Even Arnie wasn't all right

416
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 1: so all that. Yeah, Jack was like five nine five ten, um,

417
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: yeah something exactly. Get some two to the tall guy, like, well,

418
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: Ricky Fowler is a short guy. He's teeny oh is he? Yeah? Um?

419
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. That's a great one. That's a great one.

420
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 1: And then who's a epitome of the long and short

421
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: game here against you know, like Julian like could be

422
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 1: like Julian Edelman or Cole Beasley. You know somebody small

423
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: and short guys put the sticks in somebody like that. Yeah,

424
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 1: we are with OTAs now under way. We are also

425
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: discussing the Bills offseason additions. As we know, the roster

426
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,879
Speaker 1: turns over every single year, and even though the Bills

427
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: weren't big on bringing in a ton of new free agents,

428
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: there are new phases every year in terms of the

429
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 1: free agent editions as well as the draft class and

430
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: the undrafted's rolling through the door. So as the anticipation

431
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 1: builds for the twenty twenty one season, we're asking you

432
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: today on the Twitter poll, which offseason addition are you

433
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 1: most looking forward to in the twenty twenty one season

434
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 1: and give us a reason why eight oh three, oh

435
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: five fifty one eighty eight five fifty two, five fifty

436
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:09,679
Speaker 1: to get on board with us, or you can hit

437
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,360
Speaker 1: us up on the tweet sheet at one Bills Live.

438
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: And there are plenty of choices. I saw some of

439
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 1: the responses on the tweet sheet already, Steve, and there's

440
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 1: a there's an early leader out of the gate here.

441
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 1: It's Emmanuel Sanders. Not surprisingly, I think his pedigree in

442
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: his long history of success in the league as people

443
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 1: wondering how he's going to fit in the scope of

444
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 1: this passing game, how are they gonna use him too?

445
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,200
Speaker 1: You know, what's he gonna look, what's it gonna look

446
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 1: like when he you know, how's he gonna fit in?

447
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: Because we know Jo you know, John Brown was a

448
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 1: big factor. Yeah, but they're not the same guy different

449
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: at all. And you know, we were talking to Matt

450
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 1: Bowen on the show yesterday from ESPN dot com and

451
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: he watches a boatload of film and I remember asking

452
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 1: him yesterday, I said, Hey, can you envision some ten

453
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,360
Speaker 1: personnel looks where you got Beasley and Sanders running double slots,

454
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 1: you know, with Davis and Digs outside. And he said, yeah,

455
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: I could see that. And I was like, oh, sound

456
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,360
Speaker 1: that Bills were as good on third down as anybody,

457
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: better than anybody in the league, and to put two

458
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,199
Speaker 1: guys of that caliber in the slot on it just

459
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 1: it just makes it really hard for a defense to

460
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,199
Speaker 1: get you off the field on third down. They're so

461
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:21,120
Speaker 1: efficient at you know, getting easy completion, getting the first down,

462
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: staying on the field. Three more downs here we go.

463
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,479
Speaker 1: And for what we spoke about also yesterday the Bills,

464
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: you know, to defend the Bills, if they got all

465
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: these weapons out there, you're gonna have to say, Okay,

466
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 1: take the short pass and we'll just make you go

467
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 1: thirteen play drives to score touchdowns instead of going coming

468
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 1: up and getting in your face and give you a

469
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,920
Speaker 1: chance to get the big one. Announce it's a four

470
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 1: play touchdown drive instead of a twelfth play touchdown drive.

471
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: But if you are, if you do face a lot

472
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,440
Speaker 1: of defenses with that philosophy, where they're gonna be, you know,

473
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 1: like you're gonna make you go the long way. Having

474
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 1: two guys like that in the slot, Yeah, that's that's

475
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: pretty good. And as Bowen astutely pointed out yesterday on

476
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 1: the show, he already has experience in a heavy play

477
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: action scheme from his time in San Francisco, you know,

478
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,640
Speaker 1: under Shanahan. So coming here, the transition, you would think,

479
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 1: even though he spent last year in New Orleans should

480
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 1: be relatively smooth. I mean, he's a veteran guy, he's

481
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 1: been through this before. He knows the deal. So I

482
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: understand why a lot of fans are intrigued to see

483
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: what Sanders has to offer to this offense, how he'll fit,

484
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: you know, what kind of plays will be designed for

485
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 1: him specifically as the number one option. I mean, let's

486
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: not forget you know, Stefan discot one hundred and twenty

487
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 1: seven passes last year for a reason. And Cole Beasley

488
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,880
Speaker 1: had a career high season in receptions last year as well.

489
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: So you know, Sanders, I don't know. I'm gonna have

490
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 1: to go back and look to see how many times

491
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 1: he was either the number one or two option. I

492
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 1: would say for most of his career that was the case.

493
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: He's number three here right, Well, I don't know, I mean,

494
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 1: quote unquote pecking order whatever. Not necessarily in terms of targets.

495
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:18,400
Speaker 1: Maybe not necessarily, although I think most teams would say, okay,

496
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 1: you know they you know, what's the lesser the two evils.

497
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: And I don't know if Emmanuel Sanders falls below Cole

498
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,120
Speaker 1: beasleying there cold bees is gonna get a reception, He's

499
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: gonna make the tough catch, he's gonna be in traffic,

500
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 1: gonna get open, get separation, all that, But he does

501
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 1: you know, as a defensive coordinator, are you really worried

502
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 1: about him? And in the bills into the field where

503
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: they're coming out out of their own twenty Are you're

504
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 1: worried about him going the distance? No Sanders? Yeah, maybe right,

505
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 1: So for that reason, maybe they're gonna be sometimes when

506
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: you know Sanders is above the pecking order, at least

507
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 1: in the mind of the defense, and so you know,

508
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,440
Speaker 1: and all that stuff and how it falls and down

509
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: in distance, and I'll know this, we said, we don't

510
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,439
Speaker 1: know how this is gonna churn out. It may be

511
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 1: that Sanders gets more targets than Steph Diggs this year

512
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 1: because teams are saying, listen, I know that guy will

513
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:08,879
Speaker 1: beat me. Let's see this new guy, see if he

514
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: can do it. Or let's see if Beasley can be

515
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,159
Speaker 1: the guy that catches fifteen balls against us for one

516
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety yards, you know, because these other two

517
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,880
Speaker 1: guys aren't catching any that kind of thing, and defensive

518
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: cornets will mix it up in regards to that, like say,

519
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna in this down a distance, we're gonna double Beasley,

520
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 1: and this down and distance we're gonna cover Digs and

521
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,640
Speaker 1: this down and distance we got. We gotta take Digs

522
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 1: and Sanders out of it and do what we can

523
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 1: do with Beasley that kind of stuff, so they'll mix

524
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: it up as well. But man, oh man, that's a

525
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 1: lot of choices to be made on the fly when

526
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 1: your offense comes out of that huddle and you don't

527
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: know where they're lining up, and it's like what is this?

528
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: You know? Oh, and he's in motion. Now what do

529
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: we do? And you gotta adjust on the fly. That's

530
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: that's a load for a defense to think about. With

531
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: about five seconds to go on the playclock, we have

532
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 1: to step aside here. But when we come back, it's

533
00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:01,120

Speaker 1: for Tasker's Teammate. Born in nineteen sixty eight on Leap Day.

543
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 1: I grew up on a farm and played football at

544
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 1: Scranton High School. Leap Day. Yea that many people are

545
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 1: born on Leap Day. That ring is a bell somewhere

546
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 1: way back, and I have no idea where from that.

547
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 1: My sons do date was Leap Day, but he waited

548
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: an extra February twenty nine. All right, uh, clue number two,

549
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: ye Scranton, it's Grant High School. Okay, okay, clue number two.

550
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 1: Despite a strong high school career, I was turned away

551
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 1: by Big ten and Big eight schools. I did land

552
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: an opportunity at a Division one double A school in

553
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 1: my home state. It was there that I earned All

554
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: American honors Scranton Old American. I mentioned a position, yet

555
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: I have not on purpose. You don't, Pa, guys. I

556
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 1: had to go through PA guys. It's not Frank, right,

557
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 1: it is not. It's not Shane Conlin. It is not

558
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: Shane Conlin. Colin with Penn State, I know, well. I

559
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: just said he was turned away by ten and Big

560
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: eight schools. That yeah, but Big Penn State wasn't the

561
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 1: Big ten back then. Oh, I see, well they were

562
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 1: an independent, right, thank you. It's like I like I

563
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 1: thought about that before I guessed. Um, go ahead, next clue,

564
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 1: next clue. My achievements in one double A got me

565
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 1: on the NFL's radar, where I became a sixth round

566
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: draft choice of an NFC team in nineteen ninety. NFC

567
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 1: team nineteen ninety, sixth round draft choice. Okay, no NFC team,

568
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: I got an idea. Okay. I finally earned a starting

569
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 1: job in my third NFL season, and by my fifth season,

570
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: I was named to my first Pro Bowl. It was

571
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 1: the first prol you're not telling me which team he

572
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 1: was with. I will tell you he was still with

573
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 1: the original team that drafted. Not No, it's a giveaway though.

574
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: If I give it to you'll get it in a second.

575
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 1: Bryce Pop, say you got it anyway? It is Bryce Pop.

576
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 1: You are one hundred percent correct. Stephen a task, You're

577
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 1: well done. And uh, Bryce is on the line joining

578
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 1: us right now. I gotta tell you I didn't know

579
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: he's from PA. He's not. It's granted high school, Iowa, Iowa.

580
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 1: I threw you off. Bryce. How are you man? Good?

581
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 1: How are you I'm doing well? Are you coaching still? Yes?

582
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 1: He is? I am yep. Yeah, he's very familiar with

583
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 1: our third round draft choice, Spencer Brown because he's coaching

584
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: at his alma mater. That's right. I recruited him out

585
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 1: of high school. Out of high school. Was he was

586
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 1: he a tight end then? Or he was playing eight

587
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 1: man for me? Yeah, he was a he was a

588
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 1: tight end, defensive end. He was six about six eight,

589
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 1: about two hundred and ten pounds at that time. Wow.

590
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 1: It always see I realized this when I started getting

591
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 1: recruited way back in the day. It that's got to

592
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 1: be the most difficult job as a college coach in

593
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: recruiting is to know what a kid at age seventeen

594
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: is going to look like when he's aged twenty two.

595
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 1: Because that even for a guy like me who didn't

596
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 1: change all that much, I've I had people who didn't

597
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 1: recognize me five years later, let alone could could anticipate

598
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 1: what I was going to be athletically, Right, there's indicators,

599
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 1: I mean, the size of the frame, Uh, their athleticism,

600
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 1: we go by a lot of numbers. Um, what they

601
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 1: can do with their hips, their feet. Uh, there's there's

602
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 1: a lot of different indicators that you know, help, but

603
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: it's not a proven science. I mean we miss on

604
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 1: quite a few guys too. You know, It's just it

605
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 1: all depends on if they want it bad enough. Really, yeah,

606
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 1: well that's that's always the he ingredient is what what's

607
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: going on inside their head and what's going on inside

608
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: their heart? What gimme an? I you you came to

609
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:10,279
Speaker 1: Buffalo nineteen ninety five and that was a hell of

610
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: a year defensive MVP of the league. I mean that

611
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 1: was Did you have any idea that that was going

612
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 1: to happen when you signed here as a free end?

613
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: I knew you came in. Bruce was on the other side,

614
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: and they were good team. I mean they were coming

615
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 1: off a couple of you know, four super Bowls, and

616
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: you know, around that time or a year removed. What

617
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 1: do you think when you signed with the Bills? What

618
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 1: was it gonna go like for you? I wasn't sure.

619
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 1: You know. One of the first mini camps most there

620
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 1: are quite a few of the guys on defense came

621
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: out with fifty six jerseys and I was like, uh,

622
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: this could be rough, all right, you know, um, and

623
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 1: but I didn't know, um kind of what to expect.

624
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 1: There was one thing I heard at the airport when

625
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 1: I came in and Uh, some lady figured out who

626
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 1: I was. When we paid him enough, he'd better produced. Yeah, yeah,

627
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:01,359
Speaker 1: you know, so that was nice. Warm. Well, the expectations

628
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: are a little different than when I went to Green Bay, right,

629
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 1: So give us an idea of what it was. What

630
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 1: it was a different because they're both small. They're the

631
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 1: smallest market teams in the league. Buffalo and Green Bay.

632
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 1: They played another one in Jacksonville, also Jacksonville. But but

633
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: Buffalo and Green Bay. Give us an idea because you know,

634
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,920
Speaker 1: it's run in a completely different way than any other

635
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: franchise in the league. Could you tell that as a

636
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 1: player in a draft pick? Um? Yeah, once, once you

637
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: got there, you could tell it at the time because

638
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 1: as far as the other teams and the way it

639
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 1: was run back then, it was kind of to a

640
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 1: certain degree of little ranky ink um, you know. But

641
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 1: you can't say that anymore. Um. They have done a

642
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,840
Speaker 1: nice job of getting up to speed with the front

643
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: office and the facilities. They've done a great job with it.

644
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,799
Speaker 1: I know that. So you're the d line coach there

645
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,880
Speaker 1: at Northern Iowa right now, you're Alma mater, and you

646
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 1: know you're certainly an accomplished pass Russia and your own right.

647
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: But you're one of the few people that had the

648
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: opportunity to be teammates with both Reggie White and Bruce Smith.

649
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 1: And I have to imagine just by osmosis, there are

650
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:12,919
Speaker 1: some things that you might have picked up from either

651
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 1: of those two guys. How much more valuable does that

652
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 1: make you as a D line coach, do you think, Bryce, Well,

653
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 1: it helped me tremendously because I wasn't as gifted as

654
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: they were, so I had to work at it and

655
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 1: I had to learn how to do it, and you

656
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 1: know the guys that are gifted, you know. There was

657
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: one time I asked Reggie White. I was trying to

658
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: steal the hump move from him or the hip toss,

659
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 1: and I asked him, how do you do that while

660
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 1: you come up here and you do this? Oh okay, cool,

661
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,919
Speaker 1: that works. Yeah. No, I had to break it down

662
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 1: on film and figure it out, you know, And I've

663
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,400
Speaker 1: got it down now where I can teach kids to

664
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 1: do it, and my kids can do it. You know.

665
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 1: The other deal with Bruce Smith is just the body

666
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: control that he had was amazing, you know, and the

667
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: flexibility you need from the upper body to the lower body,

668
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,360
Speaker 1: which is your your apps and you have to have

669
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,319
Speaker 1: a strong core, and you know, I make sure that

670
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 1: my guys have that. We do, you know, an exercise

671
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 1: with a PDC pipe where we put it across our

672
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,760
Speaker 1: shoulders and then you twist while your legs are going forward,

673
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 1: you twist your upper body and get around dummies so

674
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,200
Speaker 1: that it u you know, simulates kind of what Bruce

675
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 1: Smith was able to do naturally. Yeah, we can all

676
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 1: see pictures of him as he's running forward with maybe

677
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 1: his right leg up, but it also his left shoulder

678
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 1: right over his right leg opened up to you know

679
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:43,840
Speaker 1: what I mean, trying to get his shoulder underneath the

680
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,360
Speaker 1: arms of the tackle. I remember that vividly. Give us

681
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: an idea too, since you're at that level coaching those guys.

682
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:53,040
Speaker 1: You guys, I mean, what a what a kind of

683
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 1: forgotten season twenty twenty was for you guys, and how

684
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 1: you handle that as a staff and what it's like

685
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:05,280
Speaker 1: going forward to you and I, Well, it was a struggle,

686
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:09,799
Speaker 1: you know, because we practiced last summer or last fall,

687
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 1: and then right at the last minute our conference and

688
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:17,760
Speaker 1: FC or yeah, FCS decided not to have a season.

689
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 1: That was tough. On the kids, you know, because they

690
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 1: they had worked, you know, and prepared themselves, and all

691
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 1: of a sudden they had the rug pulled out from

692
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 1: underneath them. And you know, some of the the reasonings was,

693
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:36,280
Speaker 1: you know, COVID's hard on kids. Well, yeah, not really.

694
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 1: It's hard on older people and susceptible people, but not

695
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 1: really on kids. Having two seasons in one year is

696
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:45,400
Speaker 1: a whole lot harder on people than COVID would be

697
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 1: as far as the young kids, you know, the players go.

698
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 1: So to me, it didn't make much sense, and I

699
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 1: voiced my opinion right before the spring UH season started

700
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 1: to one oversis and ads and his jaw hit the floor.

701
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 1: I've never heard anybody talking in those terms. Well, and

702
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,360
Speaker 1: that was the problem. Probably people that made that decision

703
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 1: had never played football before and understood that. Yeah, that's right.

704
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:21,839
Speaker 1: Steve has a fantastic recruiting story about when Northern Iowa came,

705
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 1: didn't Northern Iowa come after you? Fantastic recruiting trip story.

706
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 1: I wonder if you bryce have a very good recruiting

707
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 1: trip story for you and I because if so, I

708
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,360
Speaker 1: want to see if it tops Steve's, because Steves is

709
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,920
Speaker 1: pretty good. Have you heard I got recruited by you

710
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: and I when I came out of Dodge City Community College.

711
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,799
Speaker 1: And I think that I may not be right. What

712
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 1: was the ke head coach's name back in the in

713
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 1: the early eighty Do you remember d Okay? I don't think.

714
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 1: I don't think that was the guy. I think it

715
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 1: was before that, any maybe after, I don't know. Anyway,

716
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:58,719
Speaker 1: it would have been yeah, Stan Sheriff, that's it, Stan Sheriff. So,

717
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: Stan Sheriff Houston was a coach at you and I

718
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,600
Speaker 1: and he and he used to fly his own plane

719
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:08,439
Speaker 1: and he flew from Waterloo down to Wichita, Kansas, where

720
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 1: my family was, and picked me up and a recruiting trip.

721
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,839
Speaker 1: And I flew back to University of Northern Iowa with him.

722
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 1: And you know, you got do they you still play

723
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: in the in the Unidome? Correct? All right? So we

724
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 1: land in University of Northern Iowah and I get introduced

725
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 1: to the linebacker who's gonna be my host for the

726
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 1: weekend and that kind of thing, and just we get

727
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,319
Speaker 1: out there and he goes, hey, by the way, do

728
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,919
Speaker 1: you like rock and roll? And I said, well, yeah, sure,

729
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 1: and he says great, because we got you front row

730
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 1: seats to the Rolling Stones tonight at the Unidome. Right

731
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 1: at the Unidome, I was close enough to the stage

732
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 1: that Mick Jagger could have spit Alogie right in my forehead.

733
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 1: So that's how that was my recruiting trip to You

734
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 1: and I. What And they didn't get him? No, I

735
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 1: didn't go. I went to Northwestern instead of You and I.

736
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 1: But I would never forgot that was a great Did

737
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,280
Speaker 1: they roll out the red carpet like that for you, Bryce?

738
00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:01,399
Speaker 1: That's what I need to know. No, actually, I've got

739
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 1: probably a little better recruiting school. So my wife now

740
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 1: was my girlfriend at the time. She was a year

741
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 1: older than me. She went to You and I and

742
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: one night after one of the games, she was at

743
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 1: the Op, which is the other place, a pizza place

744
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 1: down on the hill, and the coaches walked in and

745
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 1: one of her friends was a cheerleader and she had

746
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:30,879
Speaker 1: seen me. She knew who I was, and she walked

747
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:32,960
Speaker 1: up to the coaching staff and said, Hey, her boyfriend

748
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 1: is big and wants to play football. You should check

749
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 1: him out. So they took my information down and got

750
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 1: a hold of me, And really I wasn't being recruited

751
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 1: by hardly anybody, you know, a Division two school Graceland

752
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:48,360
Speaker 1: in Iowa and then junior colleges, but that was about it.

753
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,799
Speaker 1: Iowa and Iowa State said thanks, but no thanks, and

754
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: so they came and watched me play basketball. This was

755
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:59,120
Speaker 1: way late, you know, in the season, you know, because

756
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 1: it was right before playoff game. I think they're playing

757
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 1: uh uh what was it, Georgia Southern at the time,

758
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 1: and um, so I gotta go watch that game. They

759
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 1: offered me a scholarship, which they bid against themselves, which

760
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:16,240
Speaker 1: we never do now. Um gave me a full ride,

761
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: and you know, kind of the rest is history. But

762
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 1: you know, she always says, well, you owe your career

763
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 1: to me your wife. Your wife says that, oh wow,

764
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:29,640
Speaker 1: wow that's yeah. Well what are you gonna do? Shrug

765
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,520
Speaker 1: your shoulders, say yeah, right, baby, yeah, I mean maybe yeah,

766
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe you come back and say, well,

767
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:35,400
Speaker 1: I did put a ring on it, honey. I mean

768
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,840
Speaker 1: there's that. So yeah, I'm doing what you did what

769
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 1: you could, right, I mean it's pretty good. Small small

770
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,399
Speaker 1: token of your effect of your esteem is the marrier. Yeah,

771
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,719
Speaker 1: so yeah, that's good. Yeah. Well listen, Bryce, we appreciate

772
00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 1: you spending some time with us. Uh, good luck up there.

773
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 1: Uh at Northern Iowa. We're glad to see the teams

774
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,040
Speaker 1: doing good things up there. And uh, I know that

775
00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,959
Speaker 1: the Bills fans are already over the moon about Spencer Brown.

776
00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 1: That kids a behemoth, so people are really excited to

777
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 1: see what he can do for this squad. So thanks

778
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,440
Speaker 1: for the time. We appreciate you joining us here. Thanks,

779
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 1: Bryce a best of the family. Yeah, that's Bryce Pop

780
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 1: And he hasn't changed one bit. He's just so low

781
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,880
Speaker 1: key and even killed. I remember interviewing him when he

782
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 1: was here and just very thoughtful answers, built like an

783
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 1: action figure. Well, yes, that is true, he had that

784
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 1: going on or what. Yeah, I wish I would have

785
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,879
Speaker 1: been as not gifted as he was. Oh yeah right,

786
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: I wasn't as well. When you're comparing yourself to Bruce

787
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 1: Smith and Regie White, I can understand him, right. But

788
00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:39,760
Speaker 1: and it's interesting that he you know, he dissected the film,

789
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 1: like he said of Bruce and how why Bruce was

790
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 1: able to do what he does and a lot of it,

791
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,239
Speaker 1: and he say, this guy needs to exit, to bend

792
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 1: around the corner, getting getting up the field and bending

793
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 1: around that corner takes a lot of body control like

794
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:56,760
Speaker 1: Bruce had. Because to get off the edge, like Bryce

795
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 1: did in his career, and like Bruce did throughout his career,

796
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: you've got to be able to contort your body to

797
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:06,799
Speaker 1: combat the scheme, the technique the guy's using against you.

798
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,480
Speaker 1: And I you know, you can see pictures of Bruce

799
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:13,280
Speaker 1: where he's running like a full speed and his body

800
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 1: he's bent at the waist at ninety degrees, and his

801
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:19,960
Speaker 1: the ability to sounds easy even though it's not. I

802
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 1: still remember Marchelis Wiley telling me, yeah, you know, I'm

803
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,360
Speaker 1: trying to pick up some things from Bruce, And I

804
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 1: asked how he bends the edge and flattens out like that,

805
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:28,719
Speaker 1: and he says, oh, you do this and this. He goes, well,

806
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 1: I went to try it and I fell on my

807
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,279
Speaker 1: rear end right, Yeah, because I couldn't do it. Yeah,

808
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 1: you get back spasms. Yeah. I mean it's like I

809
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:37,719
Speaker 1: was like a buck eighty five and I couldn't do

810
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,400
Speaker 1: some of that stuff. Seeing a six three, two hundred

811
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: and seventy pound guy contort his body like that, that's

812
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 1: not normal. Yeah, And the thing the two also and

813
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:47,799
Speaker 1: as you might imagine, not only could he do that

814
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: get around the edge and get so low while he's

815
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 1: running full speed, the offensive lineman starts to push him.

816
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: He feels like he's pushing him away, but as he

817
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:58,760
Speaker 1: gets by almost pushes him into the quarterback. Right. But also,

818
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 1: you know when the defensive lineman sees that and try

819
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 1: and has a technique and tries to get out in

820
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 1: front of it, he had the control to keep running

821
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:12,040
Speaker 1: towards the quarterback and just spin off, rip and spin

822
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,800
Speaker 1: and and all of a sudden he's not there anymore. Yeah,

823
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 1: So it's a it's it's that move and a complimentary

824
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: move and a and a move completely different than those

825
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 1: two with a complimentary move and offensive lineman or you know,

826
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 1: it's he's a full he's a full day's word. There

827
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 1: is one other category where Bryce has you beat, and

828
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: that is in the kids category. He has six to

829
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:33,880
Speaker 1: your five. He didn't when he was here. He was

830
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 1: just getting started when he's here. Put him over the

831
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: nipped me at the wire. Right. So yeah, good to

832
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,919
Speaker 1: catch a great family though. Great hearing from Bryce. Great

833
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 1: seeing him pass on his knowledge and love of the

834
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 1: game of these young guys. I'm telling you, man, that's

835
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:50,319
Speaker 1: a D line coach you want, not only because of

836
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,399
Speaker 1: what he did. Guy played with Reggie White and Bruce Smith,

837
00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Like? And the amount of knowledge

838
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,360
Speaker 1: he can pour into kids and was defense NFL Defensive

839
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,360
Speaker 1: Player of the Year. Oh by the way, which I

840
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 1: couldn't give a clue because that would have given it

841
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,280
Speaker 1: away too, But pretty good job by you, Steve, getting

842
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 1: that with very cryptic and vague clues, nicely duped. You're

843
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 1: taking advantages, well, you still get it fast. So what

844
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:12,440
Speaker 1: am I supposed to do? We have to take a

845
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,279
Speaker 1: break back in a sec here on one Bills Live.

846
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,200
Speaker 1: Welcome back to one Bills Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker

847
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:32,200
Speaker 1: with you. Good chat there with Bryce Pop, this week's

848
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 1: Tasker's teammate, and we are discussing with you the Bill.

849
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 1: Bryce Pop was an offseason addition back in nineteen ninety five,

850
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:45,399
Speaker 1: became the defensive Player of the year. Is first year

851
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 1: with the Bills. Which offseason addition are you most looking

852
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:51,359
Speaker 1: forward to seeing here in twenty twenty one? And let

853
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,160
Speaker 1: us know why. At eight oh three oh five fifty

854
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:57,239
Speaker 1: one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty open

855
00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 1: lines for you there, or you could hit us up

856
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,399
Speaker 1: on the tweet sheet. I know we already got into

857
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:06,799
Speaker 1: a little bit of a discussion on Emmanuel Sanders, who

858
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 1: was a popular name. But this one from Brody on

859
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,760
Speaker 1: the tweet sheet, which is brought to you by Corrigan

860
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:16,720
Speaker 1: Moving Systems, the official equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills.

861
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,800
Speaker 1: Brody says, I'm looking the most forward to seeing Jacob Hollister.

862
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:23,000
Speaker 1: I hope he and Josh Allen rekindle their chemistry that

863
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:25,920
Speaker 1: they had in college. They were teenmates of Wyoming. He's

864
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,200
Speaker 1: huge and he did some damage just last year in

865
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:30,840
Speaker 1: Buffalo in the Seattle game. Also, he can be the

866
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 1: one to give Dawson Knox a boost. What do we

867
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 1: think they get out of Hollister? A Knox is the

868
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:40,319
Speaker 1: Knox is the one. He's a pass receiving Yeah, tight

869
00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,680
Speaker 1: end sow does How does that work? Because we saw

870
00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,840
Speaker 1: Tyler Croft was a pass receiving tight end and couldn't

871
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,400
Speaker 1: even get active on game day. That's when they had

872
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 1: Lee Smith. There's no Lee Smith now, so how does

873
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:56,040
Speaker 1: that dynamic work at that position? Hollister up every week?

874
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:58,400
Speaker 1: I think he is, hey, I think he probably is. Yeah,

875
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:04,160
Speaker 1: unless Reggie Gilliam and Tommy Sweeney or some other combination

876
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:06,560
Speaker 1: we haven't done, they haven't seen. But Hollister, I think

877
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:08,480
Speaker 1: is going to be one of those guys. He's up,

878
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,600
Speaker 1: and I think when they they're gonna think about going

879
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:15,800
Speaker 1: from ten personnel probably to twelve personnel and maybe skip

880
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 1: over eleven personnel once in a while, because Hollister gives

881
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 1: him something in the passing game that defenses might not

882
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 1: be able to match up with. Not every defense, but

883
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 1: you get a defense and all of a sudden, they

884
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,840
Speaker 1: put three linebackers on the field against twelve personnel or

885
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:35,400
Speaker 1: four linebackers, and then you got a matchup problem with Dawson,

886
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:37,879
Speaker 1: Knox and Hollister on the field in the passing game

887
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,359
Speaker 1: rather than just in the running game. And we know

888
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:46,240
Speaker 1: that Brian Dable likes to focus on matchups first and foremost,

889
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,399
Speaker 1: So if he feels he's got a defense he's going

890
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:51,759
Speaker 1: up against where twelve personnel with two tights that can

891
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:55,600
Speaker 1: run is more advantageous than going four wide, he'll turn

892
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:57,799
Speaker 1: that page in a second. Yeah, we'll use it in

893
00:48:57,800 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 1: a given week. You got to have that at your

894
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 1: disposal because certain times you're gonna have teams that on

895
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:04,279
Speaker 1: film and run up to the game. You see in

896
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 1: the times when they see twelve personnel, they put this

897
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 1: guy and this guy on the field, and take this

898
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 1: guy and this guy off. We can beat the guys

899
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:16,920
Speaker 1: they put on the field with twelve personnel in the

900
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 1: passing game, because what we're gonna do is we're gonna

901
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 1: get into double tight and then all of a sudden,

902
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,239
Speaker 1: halfway through the cadence, we're gonna split them out. That

903
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,720
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. Day Ball will know what he's getting

904
00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 1: from the defense against other people's twelve personnel, and he'll

905
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:32,560
Speaker 1: know whether he can beat that or not with his

906
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,399
Speaker 1: personnel compared to the other teams too tight end set.

907
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:39,319
Speaker 1: So yeah, having two guys like that is, and let's

908
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 1: face it, it's it's a different animal. When you put

909
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 1: Dawson Knox out there and Lee Smith's the other tight end,

910
00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:47,959
Speaker 1: then they're thinking, okay this, they're gonna run behind Lee Smith,

911
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 1: They're gonna throw it to Dawson Knox. How physical Hollister

912
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 1: can be. And I certainly saw last year that Dawson

913
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,239
Speaker 1: Knox took a step forward in the physicality department. I

914
00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:05,400
Speaker 1: showed that. Yeah, So yeah, there It gives them some

915
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:09,759
Speaker 1: flexibility and Hollisters, I think is a component to what

916
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:11,840
Speaker 1: they would like to have at their disposed. I'm not

917
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 1: saying they're going to go this way all the time,

918
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:16,520
Speaker 1: but to have that in your toolbox on given Sunday,

919
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:18,160
Speaker 1: you get into a game, it's like, wait a minute,

920
00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:20,319
Speaker 1: wait a minute, look at what they're doing. We can

921
00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 1: get twelve personnel now and and crush them right now

922
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,960
Speaker 1: in this series, and away you go. And that's you

923
00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:28,600
Speaker 1: gotta tempos of the Cants sub and you got to

924
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:31,319
Speaker 1: you gotta have that ready because when you you know,

925
00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 1: and if if it's Lee Smith, it's very different matchup

926
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:41,839
Speaker 1: problem than it is with Jacob Hollister. Yeah, so there

927
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,120
Speaker 1: you go, and that's it makes a lot of sense,

928
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:47,120
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense. Break time for us here.

929
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 1: When we come back, we will get to your phone calls,

930

950
00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 1: how you guys doing great? Good, good good? All right?

951
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:19,120
Speaker 1: I got a two piece to this phone call um,

952
00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:20,920
Speaker 1: and they give me the guy that I'm intrigued with.

953
00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:24,880
Speaker 1: Conventional wisdom would obviously say Sanders our big pick up

954
00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 1: in the offseason, but because of you two guys, and

955
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:32,400
Speaker 1: we just signed a right tackle for three years, that

956
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:35,279
Speaker 1: it's coming off a terrific season, and you guys are

957
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:38,799
Speaker 1: talking about our third round pick Spencer Brown at some

958
00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 1: point maybe take it over for this guy. I was

959
00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:44,840
Speaker 1: just really intrigued that I know Brownie. You said his

960
00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:48,440
Speaker 1: three colne was like what defensive backs would run, well,

961
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:51,319
Speaker 1: a sub seven seconds, which is stupid at six eight.

962
00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:54,359
Speaker 1: So right, it's just off the chart. So you guys

963
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:57,880
Speaker 1: got me really intrigued with the Spencer Brown. Also, I

964
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 1: believe Bretsell said that he's because he didn't play football,

965
00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:03,719
Speaker 1: but he should have probably been a first round pick.

966
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 1: So I'm kind of really looking forward to what this

967
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,440
Speaker 1: guy brings. When you're talking about a tackle you just

968
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:13,279
Speaker 1: signed for three years who's outstanding, and you guys are

969
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:17,399
Speaker 1: okay with maybe party who wags with them, that's very intriguing. Yeah,

970
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I mean, I think we would like

971
00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 1: to see if Darry Williams goes anywhere, it would be

972
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 1: to guard for me quite frankly, if you yeah, if

973
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:28,520
Speaker 1: you like Spencer Brown that much, And thanks for the call, Bobby,

974
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:31,359
Speaker 1: we appreciate it. But I would say, I mean Greg

975
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,439
Speaker 1: Cosell wowed me like I was already impressed with Spencer Brown.

976
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,560
Speaker 1: And we have Greg Cosell on post draft and he

977
00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 1: said Spencer Brown is the most athletic tackle in the

978
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:42,480
Speaker 1: entire draft class. I was like, what, Like, I was

979
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:46,440
Speaker 1: not expecting that at all. Yeah, and yes, he went

980
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 1: against a lower level of competition which he dominated, which

981
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 1: they look for, had a good Senior Bowl week after

982
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:56,560
Speaker 1: knocking the rust off the first day. But here's another thing.

983
00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:01,799
Speaker 1: We know that Brandon Bean is very self effacing. He's

984
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,920
Speaker 1: very transparent, and that's one of the things we love

985
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 1: about him because he gives it to you straight. He

986
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:08,920
Speaker 1: shoots you straight. He doesn't give you a lot of

987
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:13,880
Speaker 1: you know, NFL speak in the interviews, he's very revealing

988
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:18,040
Speaker 1: at times. And right after they drafted Spencer Brown, he

989
00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:20,080
Speaker 1: basically said he's gonna come in here and be our

990
00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 1: swing tackle. He's a guy who hasn't played it down

991
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,239
Speaker 1: in the NFL, has played one double A football and

992
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:27,600
Speaker 1: they think enough of him that he's the swing tackle

993
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:32,200
Speaker 1: walking in the door. Right. That says something, doesn't that means.

994
00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:34,279
Speaker 1: What that means is that he could play right or

995
00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:37,440
Speaker 1: left tackle. But he's already the number three guy on

996
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:39,480
Speaker 1: the depth chart and he just got drafted. Yeah, and

997
00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:41,480
Speaker 1: he hasn't even seen the field yet. So that's how

998
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:45,240
Speaker 1: that's what they think of him. And the reason Brownie

999
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:46,839
Speaker 1: and I don't know. If Brownie and I are saying, hey,

1000
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:49,319
Speaker 1: all these guys are expendable, we're not saying that at all.

1001
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 1: What we're saying is it's a deep field trying to

1002
00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:56,200
Speaker 1: get in the first five of the offensive line for

1003
00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:58,960
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. It's very deep, and I think they're

1004
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:02,520
Speaker 1: gonna be There's gonna be some real competition. And given

1005
00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 1: the fact that the culture is what it is here

1006
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:13,200
Speaker 1: in Buffalo, even Feliciano, Mitch Morris, Darryl Williams, Dion Dawkins,

1007
00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:15,880
Speaker 1: Cody Ford, the five guys they thought were gonna be

1008
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:18,160
Speaker 1: there five last year that really never have lined up together.

1009
00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:21,480
Speaker 1: Even those five guys know they got to bring it

1010
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,520
Speaker 1: in this competition or they're gonna be sitting down or gone.

1011
00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:28,200
Speaker 1: That's the way it's run here. And I think a

1012
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:33,359
Speaker 1: lot of teams say that. Sean McDermott proves it. He

1013
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:36,319
Speaker 1: cuts guys, he gets rid of him, he benches him,

1014
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:40,920
Speaker 1: he deactivates them. They do not play favorites. So if

1015
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 1: Spencer Brown comes in and is all of that where

1016
00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:46,279
Speaker 1: they gonna put him, because they're gonna get him on

1017
00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:48,480
Speaker 1: the field somehow, I do that's the only question. I

1018
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 1: do think there is going to be a learning curve.

1019
00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:53,920
Speaker 1: I mean again, he's coming from FCS level to the pros.

1020
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:56,040
Speaker 1: There's gonna be some kind of learning curve there. And

1021
00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:58,640
Speaker 1: so I think, you know, at best, at the start

1022
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 1: of the season, unless he's the world on fire and

1023
00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:04,680
Speaker 1: training camp in the preseason, he's pancaking people, He's probably

1024
00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 1: it's an odds on favorite to be the swing tackle,

1025
00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 1: the first guy off the bench if there's an injury

1026
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:12,080
Speaker 1: to Dawkins or to Daryl Williams. And then if he

1027
00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:14,720
Speaker 1: comes on as the season wears on and he's wrecking

1028
00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:18,680
Speaker 1: people in practice, running scout team, you know, he's flattening

1029
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:21,440
Speaker 1: the likes of Jerry Hughes and Mario Addison, you know,

1030
00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:24,120
Speaker 1: and scout team during practice in the week, I mean,

1031
00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:26,600
Speaker 1: then there might be a different story. And now what

1032
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:29,440
Speaker 1: that would prompt, you know, the Bill's offensive staff to

1033
00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:32,560
Speaker 1: do is say, all right, we gotta get this kid

1034
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,799
Speaker 1: on the field. He's a tackle. Where are we putting

1035
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 1: Darryl Williams? Like, is he going to bounce somebody out

1036
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:40,960
Speaker 1: of the guard position, because he's a pretty damn good

1037
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:44,000
Speaker 1: guard when he played it in Carolina. So is he

1038
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:46,719
Speaker 1: better to put somewhere else and take somebody out of

1039
00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,560
Speaker 1: the lineup from guard? I mean, it could start a

1040
00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:51,840
Speaker 1: domino effect if he really comes on second half of

1041
00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:54,439
Speaker 1: the season. Yeah, we're not saying we're expect Spencer brown

1042
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:57,439
Speaker 1: to come in and you know, light the world on fire.

1043
00:56:57,480 --> 00:56:59,520
Speaker 1: But the simple fact of the the matter is he's got

1044
00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:01,799
Speaker 1: a high up side and he's got a lot of

1045
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:05,799
Speaker 1: traits and intangibles and tangibles things going for him, and

1046
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:08,560
Speaker 1: so do the other guys, and so do the first

1047
00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 1: five they got. And here's the thing. I think the

1048
00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:14,560
Speaker 1: only thing that Brownie and I are saying is they

1049
00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:18,479
Speaker 1: they've got a deep group an offensive line. They're gonna

1050
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:21,600
Speaker 1: run their practice and training camp in an effort to

1051
00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:23,840
Speaker 1: find out who the best five are and in what

1052
00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:27,280
Speaker 1: combination those five should be lined up, and everybody else

1053
00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:30,439
Speaker 1: will fill in behind that. And we have said time

1054
00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 1: and again it doesn't matter who the starting five were

1055
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:37,400
Speaker 1: last year. It doesn't matter who and what we think

1056
00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:40,000
Speaker 1: are the best guys. They're going to start from day

1057
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,919
Speaker 1: one of OTA's go all the way through training camp

1058
00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,720
Speaker 1: and make their decision. They got a guy, a high

1059
00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:48,120
Speaker 1: draft pick, and Cody Ford coming back off a serious

1060
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:50,400
Speaker 1: knee injury. He's got to show that he can still play,

1061
00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:53,640
Speaker 1: otherwise he goes to the bench. Same thing with John

1062
00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:56,960
Speaker 1: Feliciano and Darryl Williams. And we've seen guys come in.

1063
00:57:57,360 --> 00:57:59,680
Speaker 1: We saw it with Quentin Spain last year, who signed

1064
00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:02,680
Speaker 1: a three year deal or two year deal, three year

1065
00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:04,840
Speaker 1: deal when came back and everybody's real high didn't give

1066
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:08,080
Speaker 1: up a single sack in twenty nineteen, five gays into

1067
00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:09,960
Speaker 1: the year. Not only was he bench, he was gone.

1068
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 1: The Bills are sitting here, at least in May, in

1069
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: late May, where Brownie and I sitting, all of us

1070
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:21,120
Speaker 1: are sitting, The Bills look like they are neck deep

1071
00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:25,360
Speaker 1: in really quality offensive lineman. We're having mentioned Forced Lamp

1072
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:28,760
Speaker 1: and this he started sixteen games for the Chargers last year.

1073
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:32,960
Speaker 1: They are sitting here at a place where even if

1074
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:35,560
Speaker 1: they find five guys or eight guys who can really

1075
00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:38,880
Speaker 1: really play, they're gonna have three or four who also

1076
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:42,120
Speaker 1: can play. Who and I'm not I'm just saying, all

1077
00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:44,720
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you keep all of those guys and

1078
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:47,840
Speaker 1: trade them for draft picks in the upcoming draft from

1079
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:49,960
Speaker 1: a position of strength at a time when other teams

1080
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,959
Speaker 1: are gonna be desperate to find guys like that. So

1081
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,680
Speaker 1: which guys they keeping, which guys they don't. Right now,

1082
00:58:57,720 --> 00:58:59,880
Speaker 1: it looks as though there's gonna be twelve guys on

1083
00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:02,280
Speaker 1: this roster that we're all gonna be really happy with.

1084
00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,640
Speaker 1: But they're not gonna keep twelve. Yeah, they're not gonna

1085
00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:07,840
Speaker 1: keep twelve. This is for the first time in a

1086
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:11,400
Speaker 1: long time, there's gonna be some really good football players

1087
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:13,160
Speaker 1: who the Bills had in training camp, but they just

1088
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:15,480
Speaker 1: weren't good enough to keep, and they're gonna play somewhere else.

1089
00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 1: They're they're gonna have nice careers. Yeah, but I'm more

1090
00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:25,240
Speaker 1: than ever now. This roster is a freight train going downhill,

1091
00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:27,760
Speaker 1: and you better hop on because if you don't, you're

1092
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:29,880
Speaker 1: gonna get left behind. And that goes for all that

1093
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:33,320
Speaker 1: goes for all the veterans who just just signed new deals,

1094
00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:35,920
Speaker 1: all that like Fliciano, Darryl Williams, all these guys that

1095
00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:39,800
Speaker 1: signed extensions and all of those guys. You've got to

1096
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:44,760
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to bring it, and every day one

1097
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:46,560
Speaker 1: of the things we've seen. I said this about Brownie.

1098
00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:48,120
Speaker 1: One of the things I was thinking about this. I

1099
00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 1: think back to twenty seventeen and certainly even twenty eighteen

1100
00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:53,640
Speaker 1: to a certain extent, when Josh's rookie year, when their

1101
00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:56,280
Speaker 1: offensive line was an absolute mess. Think about all the

1102
00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:59,760
Speaker 1: extra chances people like Andre Holmes and Kelvin Benjamin Gott

1103
01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:03,400
Speaker 1: right when they didn't come through and didn't deliver right

1104
01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:07,600
Speaker 1: or you know what I mean, didn't perform extra chances

1105
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:10,760
Speaker 1: week after weekend. Why why didn't have anybody? Didn't have

1106
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:14,920
Speaker 1: anybody else. It's different now, jump on the moving train

1107
01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:17,760
Speaker 1: or you're gonna get left behind, simple as that, no

1108
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:21,960
Speaker 1: matter who you are. It's and that's amazing too because

1109
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:24,120
Speaker 1: one of the things, and it's it kind of gives

1110
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:26,480
Speaker 1: me a little bit of a wow. This kind of

1111
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 1: an exciting field because this coaching staff McDermott, the staff

1112
01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:34,640
Speaker 1: he's got around me, Chad Hall, all these guys you know,

1113
01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:39,640
Speaker 1: Eric Washington, Leslie Frazier, day Ball, Bobby Johnson, all these

1114
01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:45,280
Speaker 1: guys on this staff. The hallmark of the Sean McDermott

1115
01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:46,840
Speaker 1: culture has been just what we said, you got to

1116
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:48,520
Speaker 1: prove it every day as a player, or you're gonna

1117
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 1: get benched. But it's also been that they get the

1118
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:54,120
Speaker 1: most out of a roster they get. You know, in

1119
01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:57,000
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, they go to the playoffs after a seventeen

1120
01:00:57,120 --> 01:01:00,360
Speaker 1: year drought with a roster that was a used to

1121
01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:05,320
Speaker 1: being they were tanking when that season started, and they

1122
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:09,480
Speaker 1: got that roster to the playoffs. They maximize the talent

1123
01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:11,680
Speaker 1: on their roster. And then when you get to this

1124
01:01:11,720 --> 01:01:14,440
Speaker 1: point in twenty twenty one, were you looking at a

1125
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:16,920
Speaker 1: roster going, oh my gosh, look at these guys, and

1126
01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:20,360
Speaker 1: they're gonna maximize those guys. It's pretty exciting to think

1127
01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:27,120
Speaker 1: about that season coming up. So strap him. Let's go

1128
01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:30,080
Speaker 1: strap him. Let's go back to the phones at eight

1129
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:32,520
Speaker 1: O three five fifty open line for you. There we

1130
01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:35,000
Speaker 1: go to Dave in Florida. Dave, who do you have

1131
01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:36,600
Speaker 1: for us? He's on your mind? Who you want to

1132
01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 1: see this season? Who do I want to see it?

1133
01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:41,640
Speaker 1: Standers is the obvious one, But my thick is that

1134
01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 1: your number one draft to Craig Gruso. Oh yeah, I

1135
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:49,240
Speaker 1: watched him at um every game. This guy can break

1136
01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:52,520
Speaker 1: up a screen pass, he can rush any quarterback and

1137
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:57,040
Speaker 1: catch them and he gets his hands up. Okay, I

1138
01:01:57,120 --> 01:02:00,000
Speaker 1: think this is the guy that's going to surprise everybody. Yeah,

1139
01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:01,760
Speaker 1: you know, Dave, if you bring up an interesting point

1140
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:03,840
Speaker 1: that I don't think people have talked about enough, and

1141
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:08,240
Speaker 1: that's batting down passes. This is a guy where even

1142
01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:10,840
Speaker 1: if he doesn't win on the pass, rushing can't get

1143
01:02:10,880 --> 01:02:14,360
Speaker 1: home if he's in the passing lane. Have fun throwing

1144
01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:16,919
Speaker 1: over that guy. Yeah, that's the thing. No matter where

1145
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:20,440
Speaker 1: Russou stands and he's rushing the passer, the quarterback is

1146
01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:23,760
Speaker 1: gonna have to throw it around him, no matter where

1147
01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:25,160
Speaker 1: he is, He's got to throw it around him. He's

1148
01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:27,440
Speaker 1: not gonna throw it over the top of him. And

1149
01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:30,640
Speaker 1: you know, the guy's got two tennis rackets for hands.

1150
01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:32,919
Speaker 1: I mean he's gonna bass some things down and put

1151
01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:34,360
Speaker 1: his hands in the air. You're talking nine and a

1152
01:02:34,400 --> 01:02:37,680
Speaker 1: half feet right. That's I've said that. The only thing

1153
01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 1: you cannot coach and make better is length height. You

1154
01:02:42,600 --> 01:02:45,720
Speaker 1: can't coach him to be taller. You can coach and

1155
01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:51,080
Speaker 1: be faster, stronger, heavier, lighter, quicker. You can even you know,

1156
01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:54,000
Speaker 1: give him a better depth of knowledge. You can't make

1157
01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:56,640
Speaker 1: him smarter. You can teach him more, but you can't

1158
01:02:56,680 --> 01:03:00,560
Speaker 1: make him smarter, and you can't teach him how to

1159
01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:04,640
Speaker 1: be taller. So these all these guys they got there

1160
01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:08,200
Speaker 1: are six seven and sixty eight. You know, that's the

1161
01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:10,280
Speaker 1: one thing you can't coach. It's a trait that you

1162
01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:12,360
Speaker 1: can't get around. And you're right. When a quarterback standing

1163
01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:14,440
Speaker 1: back there and you see a six seven guy rushing

1164
01:03:14,480 --> 01:03:19,240
Speaker 1: here with enormously long arms, not only do you have

1165
01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:21,840
Speaker 1: to look think about it. You're a quarterback, you drop back.

1166
01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:23,360
Speaker 1: Not only do you have to think about, Okay, where

1167
01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:24,840
Speaker 1: am I gonna throw it? Is he gonna be open?

1168
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:27,960
Speaker 1: Is the defense to the right? Read to make the throw?

1169
01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:30,160
Speaker 1: How am I gonna get it around that guy to

1170
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:31,880
Speaker 1: get it there? How am I gonna get it there?

1171
01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:33,800
Speaker 1: Am I gonna have to move? Or am I gonna

1172
01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:36,720
Speaker 1: have to side arm it or lob it to get

1173
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:38,840
Speaker 1: it around him or over him? What am I gonna

1174
01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:41,040
Speaker 1: have to do? And that's just an extra layer of

1175
01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:45,800
Speaker 1: decision making the quarterbacks gotta make. And that's that's a needle.

1176
01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:47,320
Speaker 1: You don't want to be throwing it through because you

1177
01:03:47,400 --> 01:03:49,320
Speaker 1: got dbs in the back waiting for a ball to

1178
01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:52,080
Speaker 1: turn around turnover to a really good secondary back there,

1179
01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:56,040
Speaker 1: so's it'll be interesting eight oh three, oh five fifty one,

1180
01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:59,200
Speaker 1: eight eight five fifty two five fifty Which offseason Bill's

1181
01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:01,240
Speaker 1: edition are you most looking forward to seeing in twenty

1182
01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:05,120
Speaker 1: twenty one? And why? To Mark in Buffalo we go next?

1183
01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:08,680
Speaker 1: Mark tell us who you got? You're on one? Bills Live? Oh, well,

1184
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:10,680
Speaker 1: you know what. To be honest, he really didn't even

1185
01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:12,600
Speaker 1: think about that. I mean, the Bills are such a

1186
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:17,000
Speaker 1: set roster. I don't know. Maybe Sanders because he's a

1187
01:04:17,160 --> 01:04:20,000
Speaker 1: he's a veteran who's had high production to his career,

1188
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:23,680
Speaker 1: so you know, he had John Brown over there. I'm

1189
01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:26,080
Speaker 1: really curious of what what can he do to he

1190
01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:29,680
Speaker 1: actually take us, even with more production at that position

1191
01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:33,960
Speaker 1: and what John Brown gave us. So Bro probably Sanders overall.

1192
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:37,800
Speaker 1: But what I really called about, guys was you guys

1193
01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:40,080
Speaker 1: made a comment I think it was you Chris just

1194
01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:43,480
Speaker 1: a minute ago about this as a train going downhill,

1195
01:04:43,520 --> 01:04:45,520
Speaker 1: you better jump on board and hold on. And that

1196
01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 1: goes on for the veterans too, which brought me to

1197
01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:53,680
Speaker 1: the thought of Tremaine Edmonds. I mean, we could talk

1198
01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:57,160
Speaker 1: a lot about Tremaine. He's been Okay, he's been good.

1199
01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:01,000
Speaker 1: I would argue he hasn't been or grown into what

1200
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:03,360
Speaker 1: we hoped and thought he would be for where he

1201
01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:08,200
Speaker 1: was picked and his physical attributes. So my question for

1202
01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:10,520
Speaker 1: you guys is, and I think I know the answer

1203
01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:14,000
Speaker 1: to this, but I can't see them moving Tremaine outside

1204
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 1: because they would have to readjust the whole defense and

1205
01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:19,200
Speaker 1: he's not going to take Mulano's spot. So I don't

1206
01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:23,680
Speaker 1: see them doing that. But would do you think if

1207
01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:26,360
Speaker 1: he has another year like he's had, you know, pretty

1208
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:28,200
Speaker 1: much the same kind of year over the last two

1209
01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:32,560
Speaker 1: or three years, that they are prepared to move him

1210
01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:35,000
Speaker 1: or even after this season, even though he's got a

1211
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:38,560
Speaker 1: fift year option now, if they would move him, trade him,

1212
01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:42,160
Speaker 1: or even just cut bait with him, Mark that I'll

1213
01:05:42,160 --> 01:05:43,880
Speaker 1: tell you what they're going to be mission by the

1214
01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:47,240
Speaker 1: team that maybe we made a mistake on that pick. Mark.

1215
01:05:47,280 --> 01:05:49,480
Speaker 1: He's been to two Pro Bowls. He's not going anywhere.

1216
01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:51,360
Speaker 1: In fact, they're going to give him a pay raise

1217
01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:52,920
Speaker 1: and put him long term and they want him to

1218
01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:54,720
Speaker 1: stay right where he is and do exactly what he's

1219
01:05:54,720 --> 01:05:59,320
Speaker 1: been doing. Yeah, and I think where there's been a

1220
01:05:59,400 --> 01:06:04,120
Speaker 1: disconnect with what the expectations were for Tremaine Edmonds Is.

1221
01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:08,160
Speaker 1: They saw a physical freak get drafted sixteenth overall by

1222
01:06:08,200 --> 01:06:11,400
Speaker 1: the Bills, and I think people immediately put in their head, oh,

1223
01:06:11,400 --> 01:06:14,800
Speaker 1: this guy's the next ray Lewis. And he doesn't play

1224
01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:17,920
Speaker 1: the same game that ray Lewis plays. He's playing in

1225
01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:21,480
Speaker 1: a different league now where even though ray Lewis has

1226
01:06:21,480 --> 01:06:24,000
Speaker 1: only been retired five or six years, the game has

1227
01:06:24,040 --> 01:06:28,680
Speaker 1: trained dramatically. And if you notice, if you go to

1228
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 1: the beginning of ray Lewis's career to the end, he

1229
01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:34,480
Speaker 1: probably lost about twenty five pounds on his frame because

1230
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:37,080
Speaker 1: he saw where the game was going also which was

1231
01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:40,640
Speaker 1: thrown it all over the yard. And Tremaine Edmonds is

1232
01:06:40,680 --> 01:06:45,200
Speaker 1: here primarily to be a coverage and a blitzing linebacker.

1233
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,800
Speaker 1: That those are his two main roles to be the

1234
01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:51,840
Speaker 1: most effective player on defense. For the way this scheme

1235
01:06:51,960 --> 01:06:55,240
Speaker 1: is played, they played ninety one percent nickel last year.

1236
01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:58,800
Speaker 1: There's only two guys on the field in terms of linebackers,

1237
01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:03,600
Speaker 1: Mulano and Edmonds as we saw last year. And I

1238
01:07:03,640 --> 01:07:06,000
Speaker 1: think the days of the two hundred and fifty pound

1239
01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:09,200
Speaker 1: linebackers running and you know, labeling a guy in the hole.

1240
01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:13,560
Speaker 1: You know, on a back on backer play, you don't

1241
01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:19,000
Speaker 1: see that much anymore. So to look for to expect

1242
01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:22,040
Speaker 1: Ray Lewis when you're when you saw the Bills draft

1243
01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:26,000
Speaker 1: Tremaine Edmonds, I think is unfair to Tremaine number one,

1244
01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:29,200
Speaker 1: number two. As Steve pointed out, he was voted to

1245
01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:33,400
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl as a starter last year, which I

1246
01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:37,080
Speaker 1: think speaks to the abilities that the people in the

1247
01:07:37,160 --> 01:07:40,200
Speaker 1: league believe he has. And just so it's clear, your

1248
01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:43,480
Speaker 1: own coaches and your own teammates can't vote for you

1249
01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:46,240
Speaker 1: for the Pro Bowl. Those are votes that come from

1250
01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:49,680
Speaker 1: other teams and other coaches around the league. So I

1251
01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:54,120
Speaker 1: think that there's somewhat of a disconnect in terms of

1252
01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:58,800
Speaker 1: what people feel Tremaine Edmonds should be. He's everything that

1253
01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:01,520
Speaker 1: he at least from what I can tell from the

1254
01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:04,600
Speaker 1: coaching staff, he's everything that they have needed him to be.

1255
01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:08,560
Speaker 1: Now that doesn't mean they didn't have a couple of

1256
01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:11,960
Speaker 1: subpar performances last year. I think even he would tell

1257
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:14,480
Speaker 1: you he did. He was playing with a bum shoulder

1258
01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:17,720
Speaker 1: for the better part of six weeks, which if you're

1259
01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:20,599
Speaker 1: a player at the linebacker position at the second level

1260
01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:23,559
Speaker 1: of a defense, it's going to change how you play

1261
01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:27,240
Speaker 1: a little bit. He was injured. But at the same time,

1262
01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:29,559
Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to sit here and try

1263
01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:31,599
Speaker 1: to be an apologist for Edmonds. But what I'm telling

1264
01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:34,720
Speaker 1: you is the talent is there, the dedication is there,

1265
01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:37,680
Speaker 1: and it seems as though, at least to me, that

1266
01:08:37,800 --> 01:08:40,840
Speaker 1: this defensive staff is satisfied with what he has put

1267
01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:44,000
Speaker 1: on the field. And let's not forget this. He's twenty

1268
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:47,760
Speaker 1: two years old and this is his fourth season. I

1269
01:08:47,840 --> 01:08:50,240
Speaker 1: was telling Steve yesterday before we came on the air,

1270
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:52,920
Speaker 1: this is the first year someone on the roster is

1271
01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:55,120
Speaker 1: going to be younger than Tremade Edmonds. And there's two

1272
01:08:55,240 --> 01:09:00,160
Speaker 1: draft classes that got picked after him, right and now three.

1273
01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:04,960
Speaker 1: I get it, and I see what other people see too.

1274
01:09:05,080 --> 01:09:07,840
Speaker 1: You know, the run they put the run defense in

1275
01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:09,840
Speaker 1: the mid right in the middle of right on the

1276
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:12,599
Speaker 1: plate of the middle linebacker. Tremaine Edmonds is the face

1277
01:09:12,600 --> 01:09:15,040
Speaker 1: of the defense has been since the day was drafted.

1278
01:09:15,600 --> 01:09:19,800
Speaker 1: And people, it's amazing to me that you know, they're

1279
01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:22,320
Speaker 1: all over him because now the defense was what sixteenth

1280
01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:26,599
Speaker 1: in the league or something like that overall comprehensively speaking,

1281
01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:30,200
Speaker 1: and you know, the run defense wasn't what they wanted

1282
01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:31,800
Speaker 1: it to be. They you know, they see all of

1283
01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:34,160
Speaker 1: that stuff, and they see the team struggle sometimes in

1284
01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:37,240
Speaker 1: certain games, particularly against like you know, a team like

1285
01:09:37,320 --> 01:09:39,920
Speaker 1: Kansas City or a team like Baltimore, or a team

1286
01:09:39,960 --> 01:09:43,439
Speaker 1: like New England, when Cam Newton running the football and

1287
01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:45,840
Speaker 1: they put a lot of things that tremaine the feet

1288
01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:48,519
Speaker 1: of Tremaine Edmonds. And the simple fact of the matter

1289
01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:53,120
Speaker 1: for me is the guy is doing it exactly the

1290
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:55,519
Speaker 1: way they want him to do it. This is not

1291
01:09:56,120 --> 01:10:01,919
Speaker 1: the nineteen seventies Pittsburgh Steelers of the nineteen eighty Chicago Bears.

1292
01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:08,320
Speaker 1: It's not any of that. It's a two linebacker defense

1293
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:13,320
Speaker 1: where they're doing their best to stop the run game

1294
01:10:13,360 --> 01:10:17,240
Speaker 1: with six guys. And I've seen a ton of times

1295
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:20,200
Speaker 1: where people go, what was Edmonds doing it? The simple

1296
01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:22,720
Speaker 1: fact the matter is Edmonds runs right to the gap

1297
01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:26,599
Speaker 1: he's responsible for, and somebody behind him isn't in their gap,

1298
01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:29,839
Speaker 1: and they run the play runs behind, you know, between Edmonds,

1299
01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:33,200
Speaker 1: a defender or an offensive player, and then the whole

1300
01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:36,200
Speaker 1: and they think it's Edmond's fault and it is not.

1301
01:10:37,760 --> 01:10:43,759
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just that simple. It's hard to play

1302
01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:46,639
Speaker 1: that spot when you only got six guys in the

1303
01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:49,400
Speaker 1: box when the team's going, you know, with three wides

1304
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:53,840
Speaker 1: and you've got five dbs on the field and that

1305
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:56,840
Speaker 1: fifth dB is at the over the slot. It's a

1306
01:10:56,880 --> 01:11:01,720
Speaker 1: hard thing to do. And you got double safeties. I

1307
01:11:01,760 --> 01:11:03,800
Speaker 1: don't know, Yeah, I get it. A lot of people

1308
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:06,320
Speaker 1: wish Termaine Edmonds was I don't know what they wish

1309
01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:09,840
Speaker 1: he was doing. I really don't intercepting passes at middle linebackers.

1310
01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:16,000
Speaker 1: What getting sacks at middle linebacker. Yeah, it's amazing that

1311
01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:18,000
Speaker 1: he's taken the heat for a lot of the stuff

1312
01:11:18,000 --> 01:11:20,720
Speaker 1: the defense did and he got zero crazy, got the

1313
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:23,120
Speaker 1: same criticism when they were number one in the league.

1314
01:11:23,320 --> 01:11:25,040
Speaker 1: What number two in the league two years ago? And

1315
01:11:25,120 --> 01:11:26,640
Speaker 1: not for nothing. I mean he's led the team in

1316
01:11:26,680 --> 01:11:32,160
Speaker 1: tackles every year. Yeah, I mean there's there's a whole

1317
01:11:32,520 --> 01:11:34,560
Speaker 1: spreadsheet of stats that put him at the top of

1318
01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:37,720
Speaker 1: the defense, and nobody cares. Um he's the face of

1319
01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:43,520
Speaker 1: the defense. Other teams want no part of that guy. Offensively,

1320
01:11:44,439 --> 01:11:47,439
Speaker 1: he's they just want no part of it. And you know,

1321
01:11:47,600 --> 01:11:49,760
Speaker 1: and I get it, fans, you know, they when your

1322
01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:52,360
Speaker 1: defense is not the you know, two years ago, the

1323
01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:55,120
Speaker 1: defense carried the team to a ten and six record.

1324
01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:57,559
Speaker 1: Just you know, Josh improved. You know, they've had some

1325
01:11:57,600 --> 01:12:00,400
Speaker 1: stuff going Devin Singletary's rookie year. They're getting the playoffs

1326
01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:02,640
Speaker 1: and you know, they lost to Houston the playoffs and

1327
01:12:02,680 --> 01:12:05,479
Speaker 1: all that. The defense did a lot of really cool things.

1328
01:12:05,640 --> 01:12:10,160
Speaker 1: It was crickets about Tremaine Edmonds. No praise, no say hey,

1329
01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:13,160
Speaker 1: he's doing a great job, none of that stuff. And

1330
01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:16,080
Speaker 1: now you know, they take a step backwards and they

1331
01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:17,720
Speaker 1: got all this stuff going on around him with the

1332
01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:21,479
Speaker 1: opt outs and a defense that you know, you know,

1333
01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:23,880
Speaker 1: the defensive line, the pass rush, all that stuff was

1334
01:12:23,920 --> 01:12:25,760
Speaker 1: not as good as it was the year before. And

1335
01:12:25,800 --> 01:12:28,880
Speaker 1: it's all about Tremaine Edmonds. It's all his fault. I

1336
01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:30,960
Speaker 1: just I get tired of talking. I'm not trying to

1337
01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:34,200
Speaker 1: defend him. I just don't see it right. Let's go

1338
01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:37,080
Speaker 1: back to the phones. We go to Steve and Lewiston. Steve,

1339
01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:41,360
Speaker 1: you're on one Bill's Live. Hey, guys, I want to

1340
01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:46,680
Speaker 1: see Richard Sherman. Oh you still want to make an addition? Okay,

1341
01:12:47,240 --> 01:12:50,280
Speaker 1: it wouldn't hurt to see veteran like that, even if

1342
01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:52,640
Speaker 1: he's not at the top of this physical game. To

1343
01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:55,080
Speaker 1: have him in practice and his knowledge would really help

1344
01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:58,320
Speaker 1: the secondary. Richard Sherman, he wants to he wants to

1345
01:12:58,320 --> 01:13:01,280
Speaker 1: still see the good dad another guy. I don't Yeah,

1346
01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:04,400
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have a problem with that. Yeah, I mean,

1347
01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:06,400
Speaker 1: I know he's got a lot of respect for this

1348
01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:09,160
Speaker 1: franchise and the way they do things. But I just

1349
01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:11,840
Speaker 1: think the budgets a little too tight to even sign

1350
01:13:11,880 --> 01:13:14,360
Speaker 1: a guy like him this late in the game. But yeah,

1351
01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:19,799
Speaker 1: I'd be all about it. I'll say this. If Richard

1352
01:13:19,840 --> 01:13:22,519
Speaker 1: Sherman's people call up the Buffalo Bills and he just

1353
01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:24,120
Speaker 1: wanted to play for the Bills, just to be playing

1354
01:13:24,120 --> 01:13:25,880
Speaker 1: for the Bills and was willing to take what the

1355
01:13:25,880 --> 01:13:28,439
Speaker 1: Bills could afford or valued him at, he would be

1356
01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:32,599
Speaker 1: signed yesterday. Right. You wonder at this point in time

1357
01:13:32,640 --> 01:13:35,240
Speaker 1: if he's just waiting for Yeah, he's something to happen

1358
01:13:35,320 --> 01:13:37,839
Speaker 1: in a training camp where suddenly there's a bad injury,

1359
01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:40,840
Speaker 1: somebody needs a veteran that could start, and bang, he's

1360
01:13:40,840 --> 01:13:43,200
Speaker 1: into a starting lineup job somewhere. And here's the thing

1361
01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:46,639
Speaker 1: about Richard Sherman that get is not lost in the weeds.

1362
01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:50,080
Speaker 1: He's as smart as NFL player as there is that

1363
01:13:50,120 --> 01:13:52,760
Speaker 1: guy's lights are on. He knows what's going on around him,

1364
01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:54,920
Speaker 1: not only on the field, and it's you know, in

1365
01:13:54,920 --> 01:13:56,880
Speaker 1: the way he plays and how knowledgeable he is and

1366
01:13:56,960 --> 01:13:59,519
Speaker 1: skilled he is and knows the playbook and it's got

1367
01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:03,680
Speaker 1: like spears and knows how to anticipate. He also can

1368
01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:06,720
Speaker 1: see what's around him. I mean he, Richard Sherman, I

1369
01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:09,840
Speaker 1: think at this point even now, can probably pick his

1370
01:14:09,880 --> 01:14:12,560
Speaker 1: spot of where he wants to play. And you know,

1371
01:14:12,600 --> 01:14:14,519
Speaker 1: particularly if he wants to play for the veteran minimum,

1372
01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:17,799
Speaker 1: thirty two teams are lined up to gain. The question

1373
01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:19,479
Speaker 1: is what how is he going to maximize it to

1374
01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:21,240
Speaker 1: the fullest or is he gonna say, Okay, I'm in

1375
01:14:21,360 --> 01:14:22,680
Speaker 1: here at this point in my career. I want to

1376
01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:24,160
Speaker 1: go to someplace where I got a shot at it.

1377
01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:26,679
Speaker 1: And that narrows it down to a place like Kansas City,

1378
01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:31,920
Speaker 1: Green Bay, Buffalo, Cleveland, you know, La, the Rams, you know,

1379
01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:34,479
Speaker 1: teams like that who are on the cusp even maybe

1380
01:14:34,479 --> 01:14:36,280
Speaker 1: even back to the forty nine ers, you know, with

1381
01:14:36,320 --> 01:14:39,640
Speaker 1: a healthy garoppolo. So I think Richard Sherman's kind of

1382
01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:42,800
Speaker 1: in that spot. I think he can go anywhere he

1383
01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:45,720
Speaker 1: wants to play and if he's willing to take what

1384
01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:47,360
Speaker 1: the team will offer him. But I tell you this

1385
01:14:47,479 --> 01:14:49,759
Speaker 1: right now, thirty two teams want that guy on their squad.

1386
01:14:49,920 --> 01:14:52,120
Speaker 1: So Steve, thanks for the call. He interpreted our question

1387
01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:55,840
Speaker 1: completely different. He's still looking to add somebody. We're asking

1388
01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:58,519
Speaker 1: which offseason addition on the roster already are you most

1389
01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:00,760
Speaker 1: looking forward to seeing in twenty twenty one and why.

1390
01:15:00,800 --> 01:15:02,680
Speaker 1: But we'll take those calls too. I don't have a

1391
01:15:02,720 --> 01:15:06,479
Speaker 1: problem with that. I like when people think outside the box.

1392
01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:09,240
Speaker 1: A good call eight oh three oh five fifty to

1393
01:15:09,320 --> 01:15:12,320
Speaker 1: get on board one eight eight five fifty two five fifty,

1394
01:15:12,400 --> 01:15:14,800
Speaker 1: Max and Clarence, Joe and Fredonia Hang tight. We'll get

1395
01:15:14,800 --> 01:15:16,639
Speaker 1: to you guys next. We got to take a break here,

1396
01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:18,960
Speaker 1: but back with more of your phone calls. Next on

1397
01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:21,320
Speaker 1: One Bills Live, presented by Kalid to Health. It's Buffalo

1398
01:15:21,320 --> 01:15:35,080
Speaker 1: Bills Radio. Welcome back to One Bills Live. Second half

1399
01:15:35,080 --> 01:15:37,880
Speaker 1: of the show underway here on a Wednesday, and we

1400
01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:39,840
Speaker 1: want to get right back to the phones as we're

1401
01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:42,439
Speaker 1: discussing with you, which offseason addition are you most looking

1402
01:15:42,479 --> 01:15:45,360
Speaker 1: forward to seeing for the Bills in twenty twenty one

1403
01:15:45,439 --> 01:15:48,679
Speaker 1: and why? Obviously, the rosters turned over as it does

1404
01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:52,320
Speaker 1: every offseason. What new guy on the block are you

1405
01:15:52,880 --> 01:15:56,680
Speaker 1: most interested in seeing on the field. Come September, we

1406
01:15:56,960 --> 01:16:00,160
Speaker 1: go back to the phones and we are joining now

1407
01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:02,479
Speaker 1: by Max in Clarence. Max, what do you have for us?

1408
01:16:02,479 --> 01:16:06,240
Speaker 1: You're on one Bill's Lives. Hey, guys, Um, I wish

1409
01:16:06,240 --> 01:16:08,720
Speaker 1: the Star. I had a couple of questions. I just

1410
01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:10,960
Speaker 1: wanted to get your thoughts on the Bill's number two

1411
01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:13,720
Speaker 1: cornerback position. I don't know if you guys thought that

1412
01:16:14,240 --> 01:16:17,240
Speaker 1: maybe Levi Wallace has it locked in or if Kane

1413
01:16:17,320 --> 01:16:20,160
Speaker 1: Jackson has a chance to possibly come in and take

1414
01:16:20,200 --> 01:16:24,640
Speaker 1: that spot. Yeah. I also haven't another question, just um,

1415
01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:27,320
Speaker 1: I wanted to get your thoughts on what you think

1416
01:16:27,400 --> 01:16:32,000
Speaker 1: of undrafted free agent Elijah Griffin and the former we

1417
01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:35,719
Speaker 1: drafted late Rashaud wild Goose. Thanks guys, Yeah, no problem.

1418
01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:39,040
Speaker 1: Thanks for the called Max. I'll say this, I think

1419
01:16:39,080 --> 01:16:45,000
Speaker 1: it's Levi's job to lose. Dane Jackson certainly flashed last year,

1420
01:16:45,040 --> 01:16:48,360
Speaker 1: as we've discussed on this show several times, and showed

1421
01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:51,200
Speaker 1: a knack for having a nose for the ball. I mean,

1422
01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:54,439
Speaker 1: in limited action. The guys Johnny on the spot on

1423
01:16:54,479 --> 01:16:57,720
Speaker 1: a fumble recovery against Arizona, I think yea. And he

1424
01:16:57,720 --> 01:16:59,800
Speaker 1: also had then had a big pass breakup on the

1425
01:17:00,920 --> 01:17:02,919
Speaker 1: Ray Hopkins in the red zone and had an interception

1426
01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:05,760
Speaker 1: against the Jets. I want to say they had two interceptions.

1427
01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:08,360
Speaker 1: Last year he only played in five games. He um,

1428
01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:10,920
Speaker 1: so he'll be in the mix last big time. In

1429
01:17:10,960 --> 01:17:12,880
Speaker 1: the Arizona game, he had a one on one with

1430
01:17:12,960 --> 01:17:17,200
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins in the end zone by himself and knocked

1431
01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:20,679
Speaker 1: it away. Now it was a it was a dud

1432
01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:24,599
Speaker 1: throw by Murray, but he was there. He made the play.

1433
01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:28,719
Speaker 1: And you can say what you want. But Tradavious White,

1434
01:17:28,760 --> 01:17:31,559
Speaker 1: Micah Hyde and Jordan pooryer blew it on DeAndre Hopkins

1435
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:32,760
Speaker 1: in the end zone at the end of the game.

1436
01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:36,320
Speaker 1: Dan Jackson didn't early in the game. I mean, you

1437
01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:38,000
Speaker 1: know what I mean. That's it's kind of the ironic,

1438
01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:40,320
Speaker 1: you know, you think about that the undrafted rookie free

1439
01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:42,880
Speaker 1: agent knocks the pass away and the best guys on

1440
01:17:42,920 --> 01:17:46,720
Speaker 1: your team lose on a hail Mary jump ball. But

1441
01:17:46,880 --> 01:17:50,200
Speaker 1: that and I will say this brownie has had a

1442
01:17:50,240 --> 01:17:52,720
Speaker 1: man crush on Dane Jackson since It might be a

1443
01:17:52,760 --> 01:17:55,720
Speaker 1: little strong, but I am encouraged by his play and

1444
01:17:55,760 --> 01:17:57,920
Speaker 1: I think he can challenge for the starting job. I

1445
01:17:57,920 --> 01:18:00,439
Speaker 1: think he's got enough of the skill set to really

1446
01:18:00,479 --> 01:18:04,320
Speaker 1: push Levi and I do find it interesting and I

1447
01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:07,360
Speaker 1: think it says a lot about Dan Jackson that, for

1448
01:18:07,400 --> 01:18:12,679
Speaker 1: the first time in the Sean McDermott tenure, this team

1449
01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:15,120
Speaker 1: did not go out and get a veteran corner to

1450
01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:18,040
Speaker 1: bring in his competition. Maybe they see Levi Wallace as

1451
01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:20,320
Speaker 1: the veteran corner. Now, that could be one of the reasons,

1452
01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:22,160
Speaker 1: but I think it also has something to do with

1453
01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:26,320
Speaker 1: the faith they believe they have in Dane Jackson, maybe

1454
01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:29,240
Speaker 1: coming on and taking another step and challenging for the

1455
01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:32,679
Speaker 1: starting job. Now, as far as undrafteds go, yes, you've

1456
01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:39,960
Speaker 1: got Elijah Griffin from USC. Little undersized, not really broad shouldered,

1457
01:18:40,040 --> 01:18:43,200
Speaker 1: strong player that you may put outside. He may project

1458
01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:47,240
Speaker 1: inside ultimately, so I don't know how he would factor

1459
01:18:47,280 --> 01:18:49,840
Speaker 1: into the mix. A guy who does have the requisite

1460
01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:53,360
Speaker 1: size to play outside among the undrafted is Nick McCloud,

1461
01:18:53,800 --> 01:18:56,080
Speaker 1: who played most of his college career at NC State

1462
01:18:56,120 --> 01:18:58,200
Speaker 1: and then was a grad transfer, played for Notre Dame

1463
01:18:58,360 --> 01:19:03,240
Speaker 1: last year and then Wild Goose. As our caller Max mentioned,

1464
01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:08,120
Speaker 1: a guy with good physical traits and the necessary size

1465
01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:11,120
Speaker 1: and length to play outside. I think they're all in

1466
01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:15,400
Speaker 1: the mix. They're all in the mix, and so's it's

1467
01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:20,000
Speaker 1: gonna be one of the more intriguing position battles on

1468
01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:23,280
Speaker 1: a roster that doesn't have many open spots. You've got

1469
01:19:24,200 --> 01:19:34,160
Speaker 1: Tradevious White, Levi Wallace, Tarn Johnson, Dane Jackson, Cam Lewis,

1470
01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:38,960
Speaker 1: Elijah Griffin, Saran Neil, Richard wild Goose, all those and

1471
01:19:39,040 --> 01:19:42,880
Speaker 1: Nick McCleod. Those are all corners. There's nine of them

1472
01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:46,679
Speaker 1: in camp. And then at safety you've got tomar Hamlin,

1473
01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:50,960
Speaker 1: Micah Hi, Jakwon Johnson, Jordan Poyer, Josh Thompson and Trek Thompson.

1474
01:19:51,400 --> 01:19:57,600
Speaker 1: Josh Thomas, not Thompson and Trek Thompson. You've got, you know,

1475
01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:01,640
Speaker 1: fifteen defensive backs, six of which are safeties, nine of

1476
01:20:01,640 --> 01:20:05,000
Speaker 1: which are corners. And Turdavious White has got one of

1477
01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:07,200
Speaker 1: the two corner spots locked down, and I would think

1478
01:20:07,240 --> 01:20:11,240
Speaker 1: Tarn Johnson has got the slot corner nailed down. Cornerback

1479
01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:14,280
Speaker 1: to the only reason anybody's saying anything about Levi Wallace

1480
01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:17,679
Speaker 1: is because it's by this time it's habit. The guy's

1481
01:20:17,720 --> 01:20:21,760
Speaker 1: held off all comers for four years he's played. He's

1482
01:20:21,760 --> 01:20:23,920
Speaker 1: played on one of the best defenses in the league

1483
01:20:23,960 --> 01:20:25,640
Speaker 1: here in Buffalo, and he's played on the middle of

1484
01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:29,280
Speaker 1: the road defense here in Buffalo. He's a little bit

1485
01:20:29,439 --> 01:20:33,880
Speaker 1: like Tremaine Edmonds. He's kind of a target if if

1486
01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:36,400
Speaker 1: things are going wrong, either in the secondary past defense

1487
01:20:36,600 --> 01:20:41,559
Speaker 1: or in the run game for Tremaine. So, yeah, they've

1488
01:20:41,560 --> 01:20:43,880
Speaker 1: got some competition there, And you're right. I think at

1489
01:20:43,880 --> 01:20:46,640
Speaker 1: this point, though, Brownie, I think the veteran in the

1490
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:50,240
Speaker 1: room at the cornerback room is Tredevius. Yeah. I mean

1491
01:20:50,240 --> 01:20:53,519
Speaker 1: he's he's the All Pro. He's the guy that's, you know,

1492
01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:55,640
Speaker 1: getting it done and who the team looks for. And

1493
01:20:55,680 --> 01:20:58,599
Speaker 1: he's going into his fifth year. I mean, that's a veteran.

1494
01:20:59,520 --> 01:21:01,639
Speaker 1: That's a guy that's been around the block. It's been

1495
01:21:01,720 --> 01:21:04,679
Speaker 1: he's won playoff game, has been the playoffs in multiple years.

1496
01:21:05,439 --> 01:21:09,600
Speaker 1: He's got he's got some experience. The guy knows what

1497
01:21:09,640 --> 01:21:12,479
Speaker 1: he's doing. So along with Hide and Poyer, what are

1498
01:21:12,479 --> 01:21:14,080
Speaker 1: the veterans do you need in that room? So they

1499
01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:16,000
Speaker 1: don't really need a Josh Norman to come in. They

1500
01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:18,760
Speaker 1: don't really need a Kevin Johnson to come in, who

1501
01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:21,200
Speaker 1: checks off all the physical boxes. They don't you know,

1502
01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:24,439
Speaker 1: they've got him here. Now, that's why you paid Tredavious

1503
01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:28,439
Speaker 1: White the extension. He's the guy, he sets the tone,

1504
01:21:28,600 --> 01:21:30,880
Speaker 1: he's the leader, and those guys love him. Man, he's

1505
01:21:30,880 --> 01:21:35,080
Speaker 1: got that personality. He can carry the room. So yeah,

1506
01:21:35,240 --> 01:21:38,599
Speaker 1: I think this might be one of the position groups

1507
01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:41,479
Speaker 1: now after all this time with Sean McDermott, where they

1508
01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:43,920
Speaker 1: got their own guys in house that they want to

1509
01:21:43,920 --> 01:21:45,439
Speaker 1: take the lead and be the voice in the room,

1510
01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:46,960
Speaker 1: so they didn't have to bring in a guy like

1511
01:21:47,040 --> 01:21:50,760
Speaker 1: Richard Sherman or Josh Norman. So maybe that doesn't mean

1512
01:21:50,840 --> 01:21:56,040
Speaker 1: they don't do that. But I've made my feelings about

1513
01:21:56,160 --> 01:22:00,360
Speaker 1: Levi Wall's clear. You can until you find somebody better

1514
01:22:01,400 --> 01:22:03,680
Speaker 1: shut up about how you don't like him. I mean

1515
01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:06,880
Speaker 1: that because nobody can get him out of the spot.

1516
01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:10,960
Speaker 1: Nobody's been able to beat him out. I'll say it

1517
01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:14,920
Speaker 1: again and again. You brought in Josh Norman, Kevin Johnson, E. J. Gaines,

1518
01:22:15,720 --> 01:22:21,760
Speaker 1: Dane Jackson, cam Lewis. How big is the list gonna

1519
01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:23,680
Speaker 1: get before somebody kind of step up? You know, what

1520
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:27,240
Speaker 1: are you gonna do? Yeah? I get it. So you know,

1521
01:22:27,240 --> 01:22:30,679
Speaker 1: if you think he's playing bad, that's one thing. Give

1522
01:22:30,680 --> 01:22:34,880
Speaker 1: me somebody better. You know. That's so I'm I'm not

1523
01:22:34,880 --> 01:22:37,000
Speaker 1: and I'm not I'm I'm not saying I think Levi

1524
01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:39,639
Speaker 1: Wallace is an all pro by any stretch, But hey,

1525
01:22:40,800 --> 01:22:43,040
Speaker 1: what's he What can he do more than he's already done.

1526
01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:47,120
Speaker 1: He hasn't played, he hasn't been an atrocity out there,

1527
01:22:48,080 --> 01:22:52,439
Speaker 1: he hasn't stunk. He gets more targets than Tardavious, and

1528
01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:55,200
Speaker 1: that's by design of the offense, is not because of him.

1529
01:22:55,400 --> 01:22:58,720
Speaker 1: So you know, I'm fine. If you got a better guy,

1530
01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:03,120
Speaker 1: absolutely play him. I'm want to know who that's gonna be. Yeah,

1531
01:23:04,240 --> 01:23:06,559
Speaker 1: we'll see, We'll see who can push him this time around.

1532
01:23:06,880 --> 01:23:09,080
Speaker 1: Let's go back to the phones and to Joe in

1533
01:23:09,280 --> 01:23:10,920
Speaker 1: forre Donia. Joe, what do you have for us? You're

1534
01:23:10,920 --> 01:23:13,920
Speaker 1: on one Bill's life. Yeah, I'd like to talk about

1535
01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:17,360
Speaker 1: the Edmonds thing. You know, Steve, you said you weren't

1536
01:23:17,360 --> 01:23:20,400
Speaker 1: defending him, but it sure sounds like yeah. And uh,

1537
01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:22,880
Speaker 1: I would just like to say, you know, you mentioned

1538
01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:25,600
Speaker 1: he's there to blitz and covers the backs and the

1539
01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:28,000
Speaker 1: linebacker who's gonna has changed? Well, I look at those

1540
01:23:28,040 --> 01:23:30,480
Speaker 1: guys in Tampa I look at the guy in Indianapolis,

1541
01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:33,720
Speaker 1: and man, those guys are making impact plays all over

1542
01:23:33,800 --> 01:23:37,360
Speaker 1: the field. Okay, now to Greg Few, he said about

1543
01:23:37,360 --> 01:23:39,360
Speaker 1: picking outside the box, Well, if you're gonna have a

1544
01:23:39,400 --> 01:23:42,000
Speaker 1: guy who's gonna blitz and cover receivers or tight ends,

1545
01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:45,519
Speaker 1: bringing hybrid safety in there, then the guy who's faster

1546
01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:47,920
Speaker 1: than him and can move. The thing I hate with Edmunds.

1547
01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,080
Speaker 1: He's got great sight, but the agility is not there.

1548
01:23:51,240 --> 01:23:54,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he's sad, straight line, but he's not He's

1549
01:23:54,160 --> 01:23:57,639
Speaker 1: not he doesn't have those hips to me personally to cover.

1550
01:23:59,360 --> 01:24:00,920
Speaker 1: And I'd like to know what you guys think about that.

1551
01:24:01,439 --> 01:24:03,800
Speaker 1: All right, so hips to cover? All right? Fair enough, Joe,

1552
01:24:03,920 --> 01:24:06,880
Speaker 1: thanks for that. Yeah, I mean I don't know. I

1553
01:24:06,960 --> 01:24:08,479
Speaker 1: think he's I mean, is it Joe? I mean I

1554
01:24:08,520 --> 01:24:10,200
Speaker 1: can even go look go back and look at his

1555
01:24:10,280 --> 01:24:12,000
Speaker 1: numbers from the combine if we want to do that.

1556
01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:17,320
Speaker 1: But I mean he's a sideline to sideline guy. In

1557
01:24:17,479 --> 01:24:22,480
Speaker 1: my opinion, I just think sometimes once he's already going forward,

1558
01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:28,320
Speaker 1: I think it's his length that robs him of, you know,

1559
01:24:28,520 --> 01:24:32,679
Speaker 1: throwing it into reverse and then reacting, dropping and turning.

1560
01:24:34,520 --> 01:24:36,560
Speaker 1: I think it's his length that robs him with that

1561
01:24:36,760 --> 01:24:40,719
Speaker 1: more than you know his natural agility. But I don't know, Steve.

1562
01:24:40,800 --> 01:24:42,439
Speaker 1: You might know better than I would in terms of that.

1563
01:24:42,960 --> 01:24:45,880
Speaker 1: In terms I mean, here's the thing. Yeah, he's he's

1564
01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:51,160
Speaker 1: that long, lengthy athlete. Certainly, he runs forward really well,

1565
01:24:51,560 --> 01:24:54,519
Speaker 1: and he can run sideline to sideline really well. He's

1566
01:24:54,560 --> 01:24:56,800
Speaker 1: a good blitzer because not only of his length, but

1567
01:24:56,920 --> 01:24:58,400
Speaker 1: also because of the fact he can get a guy

1568
01:24:58,439 --> 01:25:03,680
Speaker 1: on the ground. I don't know, I get it. I mean,

1569
01:25:04,360 --> 01:25:07,799
Speaker 1: people doesn't don't think he plays well enough. For whatever reason.

1570
01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:12,720
Speaker 1: I know this, he didn't get very much credit when

1571
01:25:12,760 --> 01:25:14,880
Speaker 1: the team had a really great defense. He was right

1572
01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:16,479
Speaker 1: in the middle of it. And now he's getting all

1573
01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:20,920
Speaker 1: the blame for when they stink soda speaks thing. I'm

1574
01:25:20,920 --> 01:25:23,080
Speaker 1: just saying. They don't. They they have never stunk, but

1575
01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:25,640
Speaker 1: they're they're not as good statistically as they were two

1576
01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:28,120
Speaker 1: years ago. And I don't know why he gets the

1577
01:25:28,280 --> 01:25:32,920
Speaker 1: brunt of the blame for that, right, m Yeah, I'm

1578
01:25:32,960 --> 01:25:34,320
Speaker 1: trying to look it up. They don't have a I'm

1579
01:25:34,360 --> 01:25:36,479
Speaker 1: looking for the three cone time just which is a

1580
01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:40,200
Speaker 1: measure of agility along with the short shuttle. Right, So

1581
01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:41,680
Speaker 1: I'm trying to pull that out, but it's taken me

1582
01:25:41,680 --> 01:25:45,160
Speaker 1: a little too long. So I will get that during

1583
01:25:45,200 --> 01:25:47,479
Speaker 1: the break when I get a chance to comb through

1584
01:25:47,560 --> 01:25:50,360
Speaker 1: the numbers. Because he did not it doesn't look like

1585
01:25:50,479 --> 01:25:53,120
Speaker 1: he did vertical three cone or twenty yard shuttle at

1586
01:25:53,160 --> 01:25:55,160
Speaker 1: the combine, so those aren't there. I'll have to see

1587
01:25:55,160 --> 01:25:57,040
Speaker 1: if he did it at his pro day, So I'll

1588
01:25:57,120 --> 01:25:59,800
Speaker 1: check that when I get a chance. But we'll go

1589
01:26:00,160 --> 01:26:02,840
Speaker 1: to the tweet sheet to see what you think of

1590
01:26:03,040 --> 01:26:05,519
Speaker 1: there at One Bill's Live. Which offseason addition you're most

1591
01:26:05,560 --> 01:26:08,880
Speaker 1: looking forward to seeing in twenty twenty one and why eli,

1592
01:26:09,080 --> 01:26:12,519
Speaker 1: says Emmanuel Sanders, because he was one of my favorites

1593
01:26:12,560 --> 01:26:15,719
Speaker 1: when he was playing with Manning in Denver. Also the rookies,

1594
01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:19,479
Speaker 1: I want to see some sacks. Boogie and groot. Let's

1595
01:26:19,560 --> 01:26:24,439
Speaker 1: get going. You know what's gonna happen when we get

1596
01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:27,679
Speaker 1: to games. Gregor Russo is going to be on the field,

1597
01:26:27,720 --> 01:26:31,320
Speaker 1: and if he gets a sack, fans are gonna start going,

1598
01:26:33,560 --> 01:26:35,960
Speaker 1: that's what they're gonna do. Yeah, it's gonna sound a

1599
01:26:35,960 --> 01:26:39,000
Speaker 1: little like Bruce I am Groot. Yeah, I don't know

1600
01:26:39,120 --> 01:26:42,400
Speaker 1: what maybe I Yeah, it's gonna be fun to see.

1601
01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:44,680
Speaker 1: I hope you know, we all hope, you know, as

1602
01:26:44,720 --> 01:26:48,840
Speaker 1: Bills fans, that you know that Rousseau and Boogie Bash

1603
01:26:48,920 --> 01:26:50,479
Speaker 1: and play here forever, and those guys are all of

1604
01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:52,800
Speaker 1: a sudden, we've got a you know, an unbeatable pass

1605
01:26:52,880 --> 01:26:56,040
Speaker 1: rush and they're they're winning games because of it. Certainly,

1606
01:26:56,080 --> 01:26:58,040
Speaker 1: it'll take a lot of pressure off of what's really

1607
01:26:58,360 --> 01:27:02,600
Speaker 1: a good secondary. If this defense I know this, I

1608
01:27:02,680 --> 01:27:06,120
Speaker 1: don't know that the Bill's offense, if there's because it's

1609
01:27:06,160 --> 01:27:09,240
Speaker 1: so talented and we've been talking about how good this

1610
01:27:09,360 --> 01:27:11,519
Speaker 1: offense is. If this offense stays the way it was

1611
01:27:11,640 --> 01:27:15,920
Speaker 1: a year ago, or improves or changes a little bit,

1612
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:18,679
Speaker 1: morphs into something that is just as effective, that looks

1613
01:27:18,680 --> 01:27:21,160
Speaker 1: a little bit different, and this defense all of a

1614
01:27:21,240 --> 01:27:26,280
Speaker 1: sudden turns into the defense it was two years ago. Um, yeah,

1615
01:27:26,320 --> 01:27:28,120
Speaker 1: I don't, I don't know. I don't know how they don't.

1616
01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:31,320
Speaker 1: I mean, they will be bitterly disappointed if they don't

1617
01:27:31,360 --> 01:27:32,880
Speaker 1: go to and win the Super Bowl. I mean, that's

1618
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:38,080
Speaker 1: how the limit, that's the expectation. Automatically, if your defense

1619
01:27:38,160 --> 01:27:40,280
Speaker 1: comes out and goes to the top five and in

1620
01:27:40,600 --> 01:27:44,719
Speaker 1: all a number of significant defensive categories, and your offense

1621
01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:48,840
Speaker 1: plays the way it did last year. You're an impossible out,

1622
01:27:49,960 --> 01:27:52,960
Speaker 1: You're an impossible win. I mean, I don't know how

1623
01:27:53,479 --> 01:27:55,439
Speaker 1: you'd it would It would be the point where the

1624
01:27:55,520 --> 01:27:57,400
Speaker 1: only loss this team would take is when they fumble

1625
01:27:57,439 --> 01:28:05,080
Speaker 1: it away. Literally that's it. And so it's to put

1626
01:28:05,160 --> 01:28:08,080
Speaker 1: together a team like that, it just never happens. So

1627
01:28:08,479 --> 01:28:12,240
Speaker 1: something's gonna, you know, be different about this team that

1628
01:28:12,320 --> 01:28:15,880
Speaker 1: makes it not invincible, because I don't think any team

1629
01:28:15,880 --> 01:28:19,040
Speaker 1: in the league's gonna be invincible this year, even Kansas City.

1630
01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:22,719
Speaker 1: You know, all these teams, Tampa Bay, I don't consider

1631
01:28:22,760 --> 01:28:26,840
Speaker 1: them invincible, and I would think the Bills probably are

1632
01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:31,840
Speaker 1: not going to be invincible. They had four losses last year.

1633
01:28:31,960 --> 01:28:35,280
Speaker 1: Two of them were to the Chiefs and the other

1634
01:28:35,360 --> 01:28:37,439
Speaker 1: one was to a Hail Murray and the other one

1635
01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:39,240
Speaker 1: was to a game that had got That was they

1636
01:28:39,320 --> 01:28:42,519
Speaker 1: played a shell game with them, letting them know win

1637
01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:44,200
Speaker 1: who they were gonna play and win, and they didn't

1638
01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:46,439
Speaker 1: even know until thirty six hours before the game actually

1639
01:28:46,520 --> 01:28:52,680
Speaker 1: took place. That's a pretty good squad, yeah, I would say, so,

1640
01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:55,519
Speaker 1: All right, break time for us here when we return

1641
01:28:55,600 --> 01:28:58,200
Speaker 1: more of your thoughts on the tweet sheet. As we're

1642
01:28:58,240 --> 01:29:02,160
Speaker 1: asking you your favorite offseason addition to the Bill's roster.

1643
01:29:02,560 --> 01:29:05,000
Speaker 1: Who are most interested in seeing? When we get to

1644
01:29:05,080 --> 01:29:08,320
Speaker 1: September and Ony let us know we're back in a

1645
01:29:08,360 --> 01:29:25,600
Speaker 1: second Bills live here on a Wednesday, Adriana on the

1646
01:29:25,600 --> 01:29:28,120
Speaker 1: tweet sheet, Steve says, I can't wait to see what

1647
01:29:28,240 --> 01:29:31,360
Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders can do in this offense. If we have Digs,

1648
01:29:31,400 --> 01:29:34,040
Speaker 1: Beasley and Sanders all running roundes, how is the defense

1649
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:37,120
Speaker 1: supposed to cover everyone? Throw Gabe Davis out there too,

1650
01:29:37,200 --> 01:29:39,719
Speaker 1: and just go four wide every play. I guarantee someone

1651
01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:44,599
Speaker 1: will always be open. I guarantee it. Well, that's the thought.

1652
01:29:46,560 --> 01:29:49,519
Speaker 1: Do you think that there is an uptick in ten personnel?

1653
01:29:49,640 --> 01:29:54,479
Speaker 1: Last year was about fourteen percent and they went eleven

1654
01:29:54,600 --> 01:29:59,160
Speaker 1: personnel eighty one percent of the time. So those two

1655
01:29:59,360 --> 01:30:02,360
Speaker 1: together or I'm sorry, the two together, we're ninety five percent?

1656
01:30:02,400 --> 01:30:07,800
Speaker 1: Am I adding? Right? Yes, I am, So ninety five

1657
01:30:07,840 --> 01:30:09,720
Speaker 1: percent of their plays we're either run out of ten

1658
01:30:09,840 --> 01:30:13,519
Speaker 1: or eleven personnel, mostly eleven. Do you think ten personnel?

1659
01:30:14,439 --> 01:30:16,160
Speaker 1: If do you think there's an uptick there? It goes

1660
01:30:16,200 --> 01:30:20,519
Speaker 1: maybe from fourteen to sixteen percent or seventeen percent ten

1661
01:30:20,560 --> 01:30:24,200
Speaker 1: personnel or twenty percent and then ten more twelve and

1662
01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:27,160
Speaker 1: eleven personnel drops off or twelve perconnel, it gets you

1663
01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:29,360
Speaker 1: know whatever, twelve percent. I think twelve or places a

1664
01:30:29,400 --> 01:30:31,720
Speaker 1: little bit of eleven this year. Yeah, I think eleven. Well,

1665
01:30:31,760 --> 01:30:33,760
Speaker 1: there's nothing else is going to happen. Some of it's

1666
01:30:33,920 --> 01:30:36,000
Speaker 1: I think eleven personnel is going to go down a

1667
01:30:36,040 --> 01:30:38,720
Speaker 1: little bit. And it's still the most popular formation in

1668
01:30:38,760 --> 01:30:43,000
Speaker 1: the league. Yes, and I think the Bills with the

1669
01:30:43,080 --> 01:30:47,000
Speaker 1: guys they've got. It'll depend on what defenses do against

1670
01:30:47,040 --> 01:30:49,960
Speaker 1: your ten personnel. Your defense can take you out of

1671
01:30:50,040 --> 01:30:54,560
Speaker 1: it by throwing pressure at you. Yeah, quick, and you know,

1672
01:30:56,160 --> 01:30:58,320
Speaker 1: now you gotta win if you win some of those

1673
01:30:58,360 --> 01:31:01,160
Speaker 1: downs offensively where they try and in quick pressure and

1674
01:31:01,320 --> 01:31:03,120
Speaker 1: get josh on the ground or knock them around a

1675
01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:06,120
Speaker 1: little bit more than you're comfortable with. If you can

1676
01:31:06,160 --> 01:31:08,400
Speaker 1: win those defensively, yeah, you can get it out of

1677
01:31:08,479 --> 01:31:10,200
Speaker 1: ten positions and up to the tight end back on

1678
01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:12,160
Speaker 1: the field and pass pro or running back back on

1679
01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:14,080
Speaker 1: the field and pass pro. The Seahawks tried to do

1680
01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:17,760
Speaker 1: that in Week nine. It didn't work too well, No,

1681
01:31:17,880 --> 01:31:21,439
Speaker 1: it didn't. They had answers for that, But the Seahawks

1682
01:31:21,560 --> 01:31:24,080
Speaker 1: roster isn't every team's roster they may have. Other teams

1683
01:31:24,120 --> 01:31:27,280
Speaker 1: may have some better guys. So some of that, some

1684
01:31:27,400 --> 01:31:29,400
Speaker 1: of this will be dictated by match us, who they

1685
01:31:29,479 --> 01:31:31,599
Speaker 1: got on the field and who they feel is best

1686
01:31:31,720 --> 01:31:34,120
Speaker 1: able to take advantage of the other team's matchups and

1687
01:31:34,400 --> 01:31:40,640
Speaker 1: other teams up talent, and it might be how much

1688
01:31:40,680 --> 01:31:43,200
Speaker 1: they think of Dawson Knox and Jacob Hollister. I'm just

1689
01:31:43,360 --> 01:31:47,679
Speaker 1: gonna say this, Pittsburgh, they don't go four to deep

1690
01:31:47,720 --> 01:31:53,880
Speaker 1: at corner. Miami's got three good corners. I'm not sure

1691
01:31:53,920 --> 01:32:01,519
Speaker 1: they have four. Week three is who's Washington? Washington? Uh?

1692
01:32:02,720 --> 01:32:10,680
Speaker 1: Two okay corners? Two okay? Yeah, two decent corners. I mean,

1693
01:32:12,880 --> 01:32:14,760
Speaker 1: you're not running into a lot of teams that have

1694
01:32:14,920 --> 01:32:18,360
Speaker 1: four corners that are better than they're four wides. I'm sorry,

1695
01:32:18,560 --> 01:32:21,560
Speaker 1: but that well, a team like Pittsburgh, they'd say, I

1696
01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:23,200
Speaker 1: don't care if we got corners or not. We got

1697
01:32:23,280 --> 01:32:26,120
Speaker 1: pass rushers, and your quarterbacks go down each They don't

1698
01:32:26,120 --> 01:32:28,960
Speaker 1: have Bud Dupree anymore. I'll have t J. Watt. It's

1699
01:32:29,000 --> 01:32:32,960
Speaker 1: like the old It's like the old Al Davis saying

1700
01:32:33,120 --> 01:32:35,360
Speaker 1: your quarterback's gonna go down, He's gonna go down hard,

1701
01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:41,080
Speaker 1: you know, Um. Speaking of quarterbacks going down, Tiffany says,

1702
01:32:41,560 --> 01:32:45,320
Speaker 1: Greg Russeau has such unique size and athleticism. I'm excited

1703
01:32:45,320 --> 01:32:47,920
Speaker 1: to watch him compete for snaps against our established vets.

1704
01:32:48,320 --> 01:32:50,360
Speaker 1: The Bill stole Trey White late in the first round.

1705
01:32:50,400 --> 01:32:52,320
Speaker 1: I believe they've pulled it off again with this year's

1706
01:32:52,960 --> 01:32:56,320
Speaker 1: first rounder. The interesting thing to me with Greg russo

1707
01:32:56,720 --> 01:33:02,320
Speaker 1: is this Steve Yes, he has added twenty pounds of

1708
01:33:02,520 --> 01:33:05,720
Speaker 1: good muscle to his frame, like good weight if you will,

1709
01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:11,320
Speaker 1: and you watch him in some of the one on

1710
01:33:11,479 --> 01:33:17,720
Speaker 1: ones from OTA's and even at two sixty five, you know,

1711
01:33:17,840 --> 01:33:22,439
Speaker 1: going against an offensive tackle like Spencer Brown, who's every

1712
01:33:22,520 --> 01:33:26,639
Speaker 1: bit as long as he is and has almost fifty

1713
01:33:26,680 --> 01:33:31,800
Speaker 1: pounds on him, it changes things. I mean it renders him.

1714
01:33:32,520 --> 01:33:34,400
Speaker 1: I mean it makes the task that much harder for

1715
01:33:34,479 --> 01:33:37,040
Speaker 1: him to be effective to do what he does because

1716
01:33:37,120 --> 01:33:40,320
Speaker 1: now that swim over moved that he was killing guards

1717
01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:43,760
Speaker 1: on in college, that's not there as an option because

1718
01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:46,240
Speaker 1: the guy he's across rooms an inch taller than him. Right,

1719
01:33:46,680 --> 01:33:50,640
Speaker 1: So I'm wondering where his game has to go to

1720
01:33:50,840 --> 01:33:53,920
Speaker 1: be as effective as he was at the college level,

1721
01:33:54,000 --> 01:33:56,160
Speaker 1: because that's there's going to be a curve there, there's

1722
01:33:56,200 --> 01:33:59,640
Speaker 1: a learning curve there to find out different ways to

1723
01:33:59,720 --> 01:34:02,640
Speaker 1: be effective, knowing the competition is going to be considerably

1724
01:34:02,760 --> 01:34:05,479
Speaker 1: stiffer in the league, Yeah, and that the coaching staff

1725
01:34:05,640 --> 01:34:08,240
Speaker 1: and Rousseau himself will attack it in a number of

1726
01:34:08,280 --> 01:34:10,519
Speaker 1: different ways. They'll find out, first of all, what's he

1727
01:34:10,600 --> 01:34:13,200
Speaker 1: do that he does he's really good at, you know,

1728
01:34:13,320 --> 01:34:16,439
Speaker 1: certainly his athleticism and his length make him give him

1729
01:34:16,439 --> 01:34:19,320
Speaker 1: some tools to work with. And we've seen him rush

1730
01:34:19,400 --> 01:34:22,760
Speaker 1: from in college from the inside. Can he do that

1731
01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:24,800
Speaker 1: at this level? What's he good at and what's he

1732
01:34:24,880 --> 01:34:26,400
Speaker 1: needed to work on? And then they go from there

1733
01:34:26,720 --> 01:34:28,599
Speaker 1: and they'll put him in a spot and the early

1734
01:34:28,720 --> 01:34:32,120
Speaker 1: going to do what he does best and then work

1735
01:34:32,200 --> 01:34:34,800
Speaker 1: on expanding what he does best to other areas of

1736
01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:37,400
Speaker 1: pass rush and like you know, develop another room of

1737
01:34:37,439 --> 01:34:40,680
Speaker 1: a counter move, a completely different move with a counter move,

1738
01:34:41,000 --> 01:34:43,320
Speaker 1: to get a whole menu of options that he can

1739
01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:46,720
Speaker 1: try out on offensive lineman during a game and not

1740
01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:51,759
Speaker 1: run out of moves. And whether it happens inside or outside,

1741
01:34:52,920 --> 01:34:54,760
Speaker 1: whether he thinks that they think it's better against a

1742
01:34:54,840 --> 01:34:57,160
Speaker 1: long tackle, of some of the moves he can do

1743
01:34:57,439 --> 01:34:59,599
Speaker 1: maybe work real well against a guy with some length

1744
01:35:00,040 --> 01:35:04,560
Speaker 1: and then other times maybe not so much. So what

1745
01:35:04,720 --> 01:35:06,080
Speaker 1: it comes down to is this one of the things

1746
01:35:06,160 --> 01:35:09,680
Speaker 1: they coaches love about this time of years. They get

1747
01:35:09,680 --> 01:35:11,599
Speaker 1: to know who these guys are, what is he good at?

1748
01:35:11,680 --> 01:35:13,719
Speaker 1: What can this kid do? And we saw him on college,

1749
01:35:13,720 --> 01:35:14,840
Speaker 1: we saw him on tape, we saw him in the

1750
01:35:14,880 --> 01:35:16,479
Speaker 1: senior Bowl. All right, let's see what he does against

1751
01:35:16,520 --> 01:35:20,000
Speaker 1: our guys when our guys need their job too, you know,

1752
01:35:20,040 --> 01:35:21,840
Speaker 1: Let's see what it's like when the when the stakes

1753
01:35:21,840 --> 01:35:25,479
Speaker 1: are a little higher for everybody involved, and see what

1754
01:35:25,600 --> 01:35:29,040
Speaker 1: he's got. And that's you know, that's goes to the

1755
01:35:29,080 --> 01:35:32,000
Speaker 1: point of knowing who you are and what you've got

1756
01:35:32,080 --> 01:35:35,400
Speaker 1: on your roster as a coaching staff, tells you how

1757
01:35:35,479 --> 01:35:36,560
Speaker 1: good you can be and what you can do and

1758
01:35:36,640 --> 01:35:39,360
Speaker 1: where all these guys should line up. And they don't

1759
01:35:39,360 --> 01:35:41,719
Speaker 1: even know that about Greg Rousseau yet, because he's shown

1760
01:35:41,760 --> 01:35:44,880
Speaker 1: the ability at lower levels to do just about anything

1761
01:35:44,880 --> 01:35:47,639
Speaker 1: they want him to do outside, inside or either side.

1762
01:35:48,160 --> 01:35:50,280
Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting to see. And I think it

1763
01:35:50,400 --> 01:35:53,240
Speaker 1: comes down to to begin with, what's he do well

1764
01:35:53,640 --> 01:35:56,759
Speaker 1: now today that we can use more of your comments

1765
01:35:57,000 --> 01:35:59,400
Speaker 1: and more of your phone calls and the three oh

1766

Speaker 1: five five fifty two five fifty Which Bills offseason edition

1767
01:36:04,720 --> 01:36:07,800
Speaker 1: are you most looking forward to seeing in twenty twenty one?

1768
01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:10,840
Speaker 1: And why let us know open lines for you at

1769
01:36:10,880 --> 01:36:13,880
Speaker 1: eight O three five fifty hour number three coming your way. Next,

1770
01:36:14,160 --> 01:36:16,200
Speaker 1: You're on one Bills Live presented by Kalid to Health.

1771
01:36:16,240 --> 01:36:34,760
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bills Radio at a Steve Tasker who has

1772
01:36:34,840 --> 01:36:37,120
Speaker 1: been all over the field. Kind of unique. He was

1773
01:36:37,200 --> 01:36:40,920
Speaker 1: kind of a dual role player for you, Steve, Steve

1774
01:36:42,360 --> 01:36:46,640
Speaker 1: a blimp. We're not even in the stragedyre of normalcy.

1775
01:36:49,160 --> 01:36:55,120
Speaker 1: Our number three one Bills Live and Jack's gonna lead

1776
01:36:55,200 --> 01:36:57,439
Speaker 1: us off on the tweet sheet Steve, and he says

1777
01:36:58,240 --> 01:37:01,559
Speaker 1: the guy he's most interested in the new offseason addition,

1778
01:37:01,720 --> 01:37:05,679
Speaker 1: it's Boogie bash him. While I love the Rousseau pick,

1779
01:37:05,840 --> 01:37:09,360
Speaker 1: by many accounts, he will need some time to evolve

1780
01:37:09,479 --> 01:37:13,519
Speaker 1: into the NFL player we hope him to be. Hopefully

1781
01:37:13,600 --> 01:37:17,519
Speaker 1: it's fast. But wake Forest is my ACC team and

1782
01:37:17,640 --> 01:37:20,599
Speaker 1: I've seen Boogie play several times. He isn't super flashy,

1783
01:37:21,040 --> 01:37:23,880
Speaker 1: but he has a nose for the quarterback and his

1784
01:37:24,120 --> 01:37:27,880
Speaker 1: motor never quits. I think we've talked about this, Steve.

1785
01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:31,559
Speaker 1: We we agree that Basham probably has the higher floor

1786
01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:35,439
Speaker 1: coming in the door between him and Rousseau, he comes

1787
01:37:35,479 --> 01:37:39,080
Speaker 1: in looking more like a pro football player with his

1788
01:37:39,600 --> 01:37:42,120
Speaker 1: the way he used his hands, his technique at pat

1789
01:37:42,240 --> 01:37:46,240
Speaker 1: rushing the pass, or even his production. It looks like

1790
01:37:46,320 --> 01:37:48,439
Speaker 1: he's going to be a solid pro no matter, you

1791
01:37:48,479 --> 01:37:50,360
Speaker 1: know what I mean, no matter bigger body of work, right,

1792
01:37:50,479 --> 01:37:53,840
Speaker 1: no matter what he's he's you know what're you more

1793
01:37:53,960 --> 01:37:56,679
Speaker 1: know what you're gonna get with Boogie Basham than Greg

1794
01:37:56,760 --> 01:37:59,760
Speaker 1: Russo Rousseau. I mean, the guy had fifteen and a

1795
01:37:59,760 --> 01:38:01,840
Speaker 1: half sax is a junior and nineteen and a half

1796
01:38:01,840 --> 01:38:03,960
Speaker 1: tackles for lost and I was in the same season

1797
01:38:04,120 --> 01:38:07,680
Speaker 1: he was, like Rousseau was crushing it. So if he

1798
01:38:07,720 --> 01:38:09,120
Speaker 1: would have come out that, if you wou'd have been

1799
01:38:09,160 --> 01:38:11,920
Speaker 1: a junior or a senior coming out after the year

1800
01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:15,560
Speaker 1: he had in twenty nineteen. Oh, he's not on the

1801
01:38:15,600 --> 01:38:20,880
Speaker 1: board at thirty. He's not on the board at eleven, Right,

1802
01:38:21,360 --> 01:38:24,840
Speaker 1: that guy, that guy was who is this guy? So?

1803
01:38:25,160 --> 01:38:29,479
Speaker 1: And he was at two forty seven. Then so Boogie

1804
01:38:29,560 --> 01:38:32,960
Speaker 1: Basham comes out and you think Boogie Basham is a guy,

1805
01:38:33,240 --> 01:38:35,280
Speaker 1: let me just close my eyes and envision he's gonna

1806
01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:37,439
Speaker 1: be a ten year pro at least he's gonna be

1807
01:38:37,479 --> 01:38:39,280
Speaker 1: in the league attend because he's a guy who just

1808
01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:43,960
Speaker 1: he's he never stinks. He's always a guy you know

1809
01:38:44,040 --> 01:38:46,200
Speaker 1: what he's We know who we got put him out there.

1810
01:38:46,280 --> 01:38:48,040
Speaker 1: You know, I'm telling you don't have a place to play.

1811
01:38:48,720 --> 01:38:53,240
Speaker 1: The number one thing coaches value in players is trust.

1812
01:38:53,600 --> 01:38:57,280
Speaker 1: If they can trust that they know what they're gonna

1813
01:38:57,320 --> 01:38:59,800
Speaker 1: get out of you, every single time they put you

1814
01:38:59,880 --> 01:39:01,840
Speaker 1: on the field, they're gonna keep putting you out there.

1815
01:39:01,920 --> 01:39:04,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, if they know, yeah, he's gonna know. He doesn't.

1816
01:39:04,200 --> 01:39:05,680
Speaker 1: He's gonna line up right, he's gonna give us a

1817
01:39:05,760 --> 01:39:08,400
Speaker 1: full effort, and he's gonna know his assignment. He's gonna

1818
01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:10,240
Speaker 1: get to his gap in the run game, and he's

1819
01:39:10,240 --> 01:39:12,680
Speaker 1: gonna drew his best to get to the quarterback in

1820
01:39:12,760 --> 01:39:15,920
Speaker 1: the past game. We got a spot for him, and

1821
01:39:16,000 --> 01:39:17,559
Speaker 1: we got a spot for him. And whether we're up

1822
01:39:17,600 --> 01:39:20,080
Speaker 1: by ten or down by twenty, he's gonna play the

1823
01:39:20,120 --> 01:39:22,679
Speaker 1: same one. The guy's got. Yeah, he's got no off switch.

1824
01:39:23,160 --> 01:39:24,880
Speaker 1: And and you know when you get him into meetings,

1825
01:39:25,000 --> 01:39:28,160
Speaker 1: not he's he's a team teammate. He's working hard at it.

1826
01:39:28,240 --> 01:39:30,320
Speaker 1: He's trying to get better, he's doing all that other stuff.

1827
01:39:30,880 --> 01:39:35,040
Speaker 1: You know, those guys always have a place to play.

1828
01:39:35,400 --> 01:39:37,439
Speaker 1: They always have a place to play, and that's the

1829
01:39:37,520 --> 01:39:40,040
Speaker 1: kind of what you're getting with, you know, first glance,

1830
01:39:40,360 --> 01:39:43,439
Speaker 1: that's what we think we're getting with Boogie basham Nick.

1831
01:39:43,520 --> 01:39:47,040
Speaker 1: On the tweet, Chet says, I'm looking forward to the

1832
01:39:47,160 --> 01:39:50,840
Speaker 1: improved pass rush and the return of a healthy Zach

1833
01:39:50,960 --> 01:39:54,639
Speaker 1: Moss and Devin Singletary. I'm assuming Josh will take another

1834
01:39:54,680 --> 01:39:58,479
Speaker 1: step forward, the offense will do their thing. Cornerback too,

1835
01:39:58,560 --> 01:40:00,920
Speaker 1: will also be fun to watch, interesting to see if

1836
01:40:00,960 --> 01:40:03,800
Speaker 1: a vet corner is picked up like Sherman. There's the

1837
01:40:03,920 --> 01:40:06,479
Speaker 1: second mention Richard Sherman he was talking about he was

1838
01:40:06,520 --> 01:40:09,160
Speaker 1: talking like he's been listening to the show before we

1839
01:40:09,240 --> 01:40:12,360
Speaker 1: sent the tweet. But yeah, we've been having the exact

1840
01:40:12,400 --> 01:40:17,640
Speaker 1: conversation he speaks about here in his tweet, Devin and

1841
01:40:17,720 --> 01:40:21,560
Speaker 1: Singletary and Zach Moss. I mean, it was interesting to

1842
01:40:21,640 --> 01:40:26,240
Speaker 1: me when we've we had Matt Bowen on yesterday and

1843
01:40:26,400 --> 01:40:29,599
Speaker 1: he he couldn't have been more complimentary of those guys.

1844
01:40:30,040 --> 01:40:31,600
Speaker 1: He said, you know, in all the mock drafts that

1845
01:40:31,640 --> 01:40:33,920
Speaker 1: were coming out with at n or Naji Harris even

1846
01:40:33,960 --> 01:40:35,840
Speaker 1: if both those guys would have been on the board

1847
01:40:35,840 --> 01:40:38,040
Speaker 1: when the Bills picked at thirty. He was like, going,

1848
01:40:38,280 --> 01:40:41,840
Speaker 1: I don't see that. That is not gonna happen for

1849
01:40:41,920 --> 01:40:45,559
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Those guys that they've got from zero

1850
01:40:45,680 --> 01:40:48,160
Speaker 1: to ten are every bit as good as they need

1851
01:40:48,240 --> 01:40:50,760
Speaker 1: to be. And that's what you're talking about and getting

1852
01:40:50,800 --> 01:40:53,120
Speaker 1: to the second level. They got great vision. They you know,

1853
01:40:53,160 --> 01:40:56,200
Speaker 1: they compliment each other very well. So he was Matt

1854
01:40:56,280 --> 01:41:01,280
Speaker 1: Bowen from NFL NFL Matchup television show on ESPN. He

1855
01:41:01,439 --> 01:41:03,360
Speaker 1: does a ton of film work, and he was very

1856
01:41:03,439 --> 01:41:05,640
Speaker 1: complimentary those two guys, and I agree, I'd like to

1857
01:41:05,680 --> 01:41:08,840
Speaker 1: see those guys healthy. Devin Singletary, We've seen pictures on

1858
01:41:08,920 --> 01:41:11,599
Speaker 1: the internet. I mean the guys, it was like, who

1859
01:41:11,760 --> 01:41:14,840
Speaker 1: is that. It looks like they looks like they photoshopped

1860
01:41:14,880 --> 01:41:17,040
Speaker 1: his face onto somebody else. From what you kind of

1861
01:41:17,360 --> 01:41:20,840
Speaker 1: looks like in his uniform, right, he looks sons out,

1862
01:41:20,880 --> 01:41:23,240
Speaker 1: guns out. Yeah, So you got all that going for

1863
01:41:23,479 --> 01:41:26,519
Speaker 1: is Zach Moss certainly wants to come back and rebound

1864
01:41:26,640 --> 01:41:29,240
Speaker 1: from the injury, the unfortunate injury he suffered at the

1865
01:41:29,320 --> 01:41:33,320
Speaker 1: end of the last season in the playoffs. I'm with him.

1866
01:41:34,720 --> 01:41:37,120
Speaker 1: The running back is not where you start when you're

1867
01:41:37,160 --> 01:41:39,599
Speaker 1: thinking about getting a better running game going for the Bills.

1868
01:41:39,680 --> 01:41:41,880
Speaker 1: So I think the Bills did it the right way.

1869
01:41:41,920 --> 01:41:44,400
Speaker 1: And Matt Bowen, the guy from ESPN and NFL Matchup,

1870
01:41:44,720 --> 01:41:46,840
Speaker 1: agreed with us. So I'm interested in that as well.

1871
01:41:46,880 --> 01:41:51,240
Speaker 1: And Josh, what do you mean another step forward? We've

1872
01:41:51,280 --> 01:41:55,280
Speaker 1: been what's that gonna look like? I don't know you

1873
01:41:55,400 --> 01:41:58,040
Speaker 1: said it? Man five thousand yards? So well, he's got

1874
01:41:58,080 --> 01:42:01,120
Speaker 1: seventeen games, he got an extra game he would be

1875
01:42:01,280 --> 01:42:06,200
Speaker 1: throwing if if all was equal this year, he would

1876
01:42:06,200 --> 01:42:09,120
Speaker 1: have thrown for forty eight plus this year without a

1877
01:42:09,200 --> 01:42:14,679
Speaker 1: seventeenth with a seventeenth game this year. So yeah, it's

1878
01:42:14,720 --> 01:42:18,880
Speaker 1: on the table. Tom Pelli Sero from NFL Network is

1879
01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:23,320
Speaker 1: keeping tabs on the NFL owners meetings here in the spring,

1880
01:42:23,880 --> 01:42:26,440
Speaker 1: and there are a few things on the agenda, including

1881
01:42:26,640 --> 01:42:29,920
Speaker 1: roster sizes and the NFL owners just to prove the

1882
01:42:30,120 --> 01:42:33,560
Speaker 1: ninety man roster to start training camp this year with

1883
01:42:33,800 --> 01:42:37,600
Speaker 1: cuts down to eighty five on August seventeenth, down to

1884
01:42:37,840 --> 01:42:41,479
Speaker 1: eighty on August twenty fourth, and then down to fifty

1885
01:42:41,600 --> 01:42:44,519
Speaker 1: three on August thirty first, which is a couple of

1886
01:42:44,640 --> 01:42:48,080
Speaker 1: days earlier than it usually is. It's usually September two

1887
01:42:48,240 --> 01:42:50,639
Speaker 1: or third, or at least that's the date it has

1888
01:42:50,680 --> 01:42:52,920
Speaker 1: been the last few years. So they've moved that back

1889
01:42:53,600 --> 01:42:56,640
Speaker 1: to August thirty first, and there are two series of

1890
01:42:56,720 --> 01:43:03,080
Speaker 1: cutdowns eighty five, then eighty then fifty three. It used

1891
01:43:03,120 --> 01:43:06,439
Speaker 1: to be ninety to seventy five and then seventy five

1892
01:43:06,520 --> 01:43:09,600
Speaker 1: to fifty three, so the couple of stages there, the

1893
01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:12,599
Speaker 1: difference could be as well. There's only three preseason games,

1894
01:43:12,680 --> 01:43:16,519
Speaker 1: and the Week four of the preseason this year, I

1895
01:43:16,600 --> 01:43:20,040
Speaker 1: think almost universally is a buy yeah for all intensive,

1896
01:43:20,320 --> 01:43:22,599
Speaker 1: so they can they don't need that last they don't

1897
01:43:22,640 --> 01:43:25,000
Speaker 1: need nine thousand guys just to get through that last

1898
01:43:25,080 --> 01:43:26,880
Speaker 1: preseason game on the Bible, so they can move the

1899
01:43:26,960 --> 01:43:29,920
Speaker 1: cuts up until just after week three. That's a preseason,

1900
01:43:30,360 --> 01:43:32,960
Speaker 1: so I think that's one reason why they're saying they

1901
01:43:33,040 --> 01:43:34,720
Speaker 1: move that cut date up so they can get down

1902
01:43:34,760 --> 01:43:38,040
Speaker 1: to their fifty three, get their practice squad assimilated, get

1903
01:43:38,080 --> 01:43:40,639
Speaker 1: everything all set in order, and then start their week

1904
01:43:42,360 --> 01:43:45,479
Speaker 1: week one routine with the guys they're going to have

1905
01:43:45,640 --> 01:43:47,679
Speaker 1: for the duration of the season. I think that's probably

1906
01:43:47,920 --> 01:43:51,280
Speaker 1: where that schedule comes from. So the final cuts will

1907
01:43:51,360 --> 01:43:54,560
Speaker 1: not be on Labor Day weekend. It's going to be

1908
01:43:54,640 --> 01:43:59,559
Speaker 1: on Tuesday, August thirty first. That's twelve full days before

1909
01:43:59,640 --> 01:44:03,559
Speaker 1: the Sunday of week one. So and that's usually when

1910
01:44:03,600 --> 01:44:07,920
Speaker 1: those that's usually just before the fourth preseason game actually

1911
01:44:07,960 --> 01:44:11,639
Speaker 1: even takes place. They usually play on that Thursday before

1912
01:44:12,560 --> 01:44:18,120
Speaker 1: Labor Day, right, and that's like nine days early. So

1913
01:44:18,240 --> 01:44:20,360
Speaker 1: it'll be just after week three of the preseason that

1914
01:44:20,400 --> 01:44:23,640
Speaker 1: they're cutting guys. Yeah, after that weekend. Yeah, that is

1915
01:44:23,680 --> 01:44:27,920
Speaker 1: how it will go. So interesting news. There a couple

1916
01:44:27,960 --> 01:44:31,559
Speaker 1: of more on the tweet sheet here. JT says Boogie

1917
01:44:31,680 --> 01:44:33,519
Speaker 1: is more ready to go than Rousseau right now. He

1918
01:44:33,600 --> 01:44:35,559
Speaker 1: may need some time to evolve into the player we've

1919
01:44:35,560 --> 01:44:38,839
Speaker 1: seeing him. I want to see Boogie be a quarterback nightmare.

1920
01:44:38,880 --> 01:44:41,000
Speaker 1: He looks like a dancer after a big play too.

1921
01:44:41,080 --> 01:44:43,840
Speaker 1: I'm all for it if he produces. Also looking forward

1922
01:44:43,880 --> 01:44:47,920
Speaker 1: to Spencer Brown and Hollister a lot of the same

1923
01:44:48,080 --> 01:44:50,559
Speaker 1: names today, Steve Wow, there's on this a short list

1924
01:44:50,600 --> 01:44:53,960
Speaker 1: of guys who I mean, it's hard for Spencer Brown

1925
01:44:54,000 --> 01:44:57,559
Speaker 1: to come in and splash as a rookie offensive lineman.

1926
01:44:58,360 --> 01:45:02,519
Speaker 1: You know, it's hard for those guys to get that done. Brown,

1927
01:45:04,320 --> 01:45:07,719
Speaker 1: Doyle Anderson those I mean, you know, even if they start,

1928
01:45:08,160 --> 01:45:09,680
Speaker 1: what are they gonna you know, what are they gonna do?

1929
01:45:09,720 --> 01:45:11,800
Speaker 1: Intercept passes at offensive line? You know what are they?

1930
01:45:11,920 --> 01:45:14,120
Speaker 1: You know you're not gonna see him, And the best

1931
01:45:14,200 --> 01:45:15,519
Speaker 1: you can hear from them is that you don't hear

1932
01:45:15,560 --> 01:45:19,080
Speaker 1: him getting called for a penalty. So hard for those

1933
01:45:19,160 --> 01:45:21,240
Speaker 1: guys to get on the radar as as a guy

1934
01:45:21,280 --> 01:45:22,840
Speaker 1: that Wow, I can't wait to see, you know, the

1935
01:45:22,960 --> 01:45:25,800
Speaker 1: left tackle block. No, you want to see guys like

1936
01:45:26,080 --> 01:45:30,200
Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders, Jake Hollister and Boogie Basham and Greg Rousseau

1937
01:45:30,320 --> 01:45:32,840
Speaker 1: get into the backfield or make plays in this you know,

1938
01:45:33,520 --> 01:45:37,240
Speaker 1: down the field last one from Chris Matt Brita and

1939
01:45:37,439 --> 01:45:39,560
Speaker 1: running the ball. I'm interested in seeing what kind of

1940
01:45:39,600 --> 01:45:41,960
Speaker 1: dynamic he can bring to the running back room. I

1941
01:45:42,040 --> 01:45:44,080
Speaker 1: think he can bring an exciting home run element to

1942
01:45:44,120 --> 01:45:47,760
Speaker 1: our offense that we lacked last year from our RBS

1943
01:45:49,479 --> 01:45:52,960
Speaker 1: that I can get behind. I'd like to see it.

1944
01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:55,720
Speaker 1: I'd like to see that. I would love to see that.

1945
01:45:55,800 --> 01:45:59,320
Speaker 1: Scoot Man four three eight is no joke. Yeah, So

1946
01:46:00,040 --> 01:46:02,240
Speaker 1: I just I know some people are down on him

1947
01:46:02,240 --> 01:46:03,920
Speaker 1: because they said, well, he couldn't even win a job

1948
01:46:04,000 --> 01:46:07,000
Speaker 1: in Miami. I just think there were different elements at

1949
01:46:07,120 --> 01:46:09,080
Speaker 1: play there in terms of what they were looking for

1950
01:46:09,320 --> 01:46:14,320
Speaker 1: from their running game last season, and I think Brida

1951
01:46:14,439 --> 01:46:16,920
Speaker 1: just got caught on the outside looking in. I don't

1952
01:46:16,960 --> 01:46:19,200
Speaker 1: think it was anything that he did or didn't do,

1953
01:46:20,120 --> 01:46:23,960
Speaker 1: and I think coming here he'll get probably are more

1954
01:46:24,000 --> 01:46:27,640
Speaker 1: of a fair shake. Now, all that being said, this

1955
01:46:27,680 --> 01:46:30,040
Speaker 1: isn't going to be an easy group to crack, right.

1956
01:46:30,160 --> 01:46:32,000
Speaker 1: I think they really like both the guys they've gotten

1957
01:46:32,080 --> 01:46:34,720
Speaker 1: moss In Singletary. But I'll say this about Brita. I'm

1958
01:46:35,840 --> 01:46:39,920
Speaker 1: that I had forgotten about him, and he's got a

1959
01:46:40,000 --> 01:46:44,479
Speaker 1: chance not only to break in and contribute big time.

1960
01:46:44,560 --> 01:46:47,080
Speaker 1: I'm kind of willing to slide him some slack for

1961
01:46:47,120 --> 01:46:50,920
Speaker 1: what happened in Miami last year when the other guy

1962
01:46:52,120 --> 01:46:59,120
Speaker 1: got most of the carries. Gasking and because we've seen

1963
01:47:00,439 --> 01:47:04,439
Speaker 1: we've seen Brian Flores just kind of like just make

1964
01:47:04,560 --> 01:47:09,920
Speaker 1: decisions that are kind of that seemed like, well, why

1965
01:47:09,960 --> 01:47:11,680
Speaker 1: do you do that? And it just seems like there

1966
01:47:11,760 --> 01:47:13,960
Speaker 1: was something behind the scenes that made the decision for him,

1967
01:47:14,600 --> 01:47:17,240
Speaker 1: whether it was his opinion about the style the guy

1968
01:47:17,439 --> 01:47:19,960
Speaker 1: is or whatever, and the running backs in Miami seemed

1969
01:47:19,960 --> 01:47:22,240
Speaker 1: to be one of those like him. Not making a

1970
01:47:22,320 --> 01:47:25,559
Speaker 1: decision about an offensive coordinator this year, that kind of decision. Yeah,

1971
01:47:25,800 --> 01:47:28,000
Speaker 1: the fact that he cut all six of it, or

1972
01:47:28,080 --> 01:47:30,479
Speaker 1: got rid of all six of their captains this year,

1973
01:47:30,600 --> 01:47:33,200
Speaker 1: that kind of decision. That kind of strikes me as

1974
01:47:33,240 --> 01:47:36,120
Speaker 1: this breed of decision at running back breed him. You know,

1975
01:47:36,200 --> 01:47:38,639
Speaker 1: the other guy Gaskin may been better. Okay, that's fine,

1976
01:47:38,880 --> 01:47:41,600
Speaker 1: but he didn't get the feeling that all of that

1977
01:47:41,880 --> 01:47:43,640
Speaker 1: was the only thing that went into the decision, just

1978
01:47:43,760 --> 01:47:49,080
Speaker 1: like it was with the coaches and the captains and

1979
01:47:49,640 --> 01:47:51,400
Speaker 1: some of the other stuff that went on there. You

1980
01:47:51,479 --> 01:47:56,719
Speaker 1: just it doesn't seem forthright and on the surface completely

1981
01:47:56,840 --> 01:47:59,880
Speaker 1: logical that he made these decisions. They seemed opinion based.

1982
01:48:00,360 --> 01:48:03,120
Speaker 1: So I'm willing to cut breed us some slack about

1983
01:48:03,160 --> 01:48:05,519
Speaker 1: his running ability until we see him here with the

1984
01:48:05,520 --> 01:48:07,680
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills and get a fair shake and you know,

1985
01:48:07,840 --> 01:48:10,720
Speaker 1: run behind this offensive line and get a chance to

1986
01:48:11,080 --> 01:48:13,400
Speaker 1: you know, use his speed here. See what it looks like,

1987
01:48:13,520 --> 01:48:17,800
Speaker 1: because that is something that nobody else in that room has.

1988
01:48:19,120 --> 01:48:21,519
Speaker 1: All right, Steve, are you hungry? You're ready for some lunch?

1989
01:48:21,800 --> 01:48:25,000
Speaker 1: I am. Let's do a little What's for Lunch? This

1990
01:48:25,200 --> 01:48:27,280
Speaker 1: is where we pick from a couple of menu items

1991
01:48:28,080 --> 01:48:32,920
Speaker 1: that are being presented to us that are all NFL

1992
01:48:33,040 --> 01:48:37,880
Speaker 1: related in most cases, of course, So Steve, What's for Lunch?

1993
01:48:38,720 --> 01:48:44,040
Speaker 1: Number one Better Comeback Player of the Year candidate Joe

1994
01:48:44,160 --> 01:48:51,719
Speaker 1: Burrow or Dak Prescott. Dak Prescott has already won this award.

1995
01:48:51,760 --> 01:48:56,280
Speaker 1: The play because who he plays for, notoriety and notoriety

1996
01:48:56,360 --> 01:48:59,559
Speaker 1: and the fact that he's won. It's a a guy

1997
01:49:00,040 --> 01:49:01,680
Speaker 1: you can kind of get behind his story because he

1998
01:49:01,760 --> 01:49:03,479
Speaker 1: bet on himself and it was a mess with the

1999
01:49:03,600 --> 01:49:06,120
Speaker 1: Cowboys and the contract and all the stuff that was

2000
01:49:06,200 --> 01:49:08,960
Speaker 1: going on with him, and how he said, Okay, I'm

2001
01:49:09,000 --> 01:49:10,439
Speaker 1: just gonna go out and play, and he did go

2002
01:49:10,479 --> 01:49:13,960
Speaker 1: out and play, and he got his leg broke, and

2003
01:49:14,160 --> 01:49:16,280
Speaker 1: nobody wants, you know, a guy who bets on himself

2004
01:49:16,320 --> 01:49:18,240
Speaker 1: and has something like that happened to him, Nobody wants

2005
01:49:18,280 --> 01:49:21,400
Speaker 1: to see that. And so I because of that, and

2006
01:49:21,520 --> 01:49:23,240
Speaker 1: because of the team he plays for and the way

2007
01:49:23,280 --> 01:49:27,200
Speaker 1: he's played up to that point, he's nobody else is

2008
01:49:27,200 --> 01:49:30,960
Speaker 1: gonna win that award. That was That award was one

2009
01:49:31,000 --> 01:49:32,760
Speaker 1: when he was getting dragged off the field on a

2010
01:49:32,880 --> 01:49:35,920
Speaker 1: cart crying. Yeah, provided he was healthy enough to come

2011
01:49:35,960 --> 01:49:38,120
Speaker 1: back this year, which looks like it will be the case.

2012
01:49:38,200 --> 01:49:40,280
Speaker 1: So yes, I would agree with you. I would take

2013
01:49:40,400 --> 01:49:43,560
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott as well, which NFC North team as the

2014
01:49:43,640 --> 01:49:54,360
Speaker 1: best roster right now. NFC North roster Cleveland NC. Oh, sorry, bro,

2015
01:49:55,640 --> 01:49:59,760
Speaker 1: that's with Packers with Aaron Rodgers, he's on the roster now,

2016
01:50:00,080 --> 01:50:07,920
Speaker 1: I would say yes, I would say the Packers. Packers. Okay,

2017
01:50:08,520 --> 01:50:11,800
Speaker 1: Minnesota in the running there at all. I think for me,

2018
01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:18,240
Speaker 1: I like Chicago's roster better than like Minnesota's. Really yeah, wow, Okay, yeah, um,

2019
01:50:19,600 --> 01:50:22,120
Speaker 1: Detroit not so much. I'm a little mixed on this

2020
01:50:26,040 --> 01:50:28,040
Speaker 1: because I like Minnesota's roster, but I don't know if

2021
01:50:28,040 --> 01:50:29,759
Speaker 1: I like it enough to put him in the top spot.

2022
01:50:30,600 --> 01:50:34,600
Speaker 1: So because Rogers tilts the field, yeah, so I'll go

2023
01:50:34,720 --> 01:50:37,439
Speaker 1: with Green Bay as long as Rogers is still there,

2024
01:50:37,840 --> 01:50:42,120
Speaker 1: and we'll leave it at that rookie cornerback under the

2025
01:50:42,360 --> 01:50:51,760
Speaker 1: most pressure. Trevor Lawrence or Trey Lance. Trevor Lawrence. It's

2026
01:50:51,760 --> 01:50:53,840
Speaker 1: gotta be Trevor right. Yeah, he's only he's gonna be

2027
01:50:54,000 --> 01:50:59,160
Speaker 1: taking snaps from day one practice number one. Trevor Lawrence. Now,

2028
01:50:59,280 --> 01:51:01,320
Speaker 1: certainly Trey Lance is going to be under some pressure

2029
01:51:01,360 --> 01:51:05,360
Speaker 1: and some scrutiny when he comes in. I'm yeah, whenever

2030
01:51:05,439 --> 01:51:08,960
Speaker 1: that might be. But he's not day one, He's he's

2031
01:51:09,000 --> 01:51:11,720
Speaker 1: watching Jimmy. He's also got a whole lot more around him,

2032
01:51:11,920 --> 01:51:14,720
Speaker 1: especially you know, they got a really good defense. Yeah,

2033
01:51:14,760 --> 01:51:16,759
Speaker 1: he's not gonna be tealthy. He's not gonna be expected

2034
01:51:16,800 --> 01:51:19,559
Speaker 1: to score thirty points a game to win. Yeah, all right,

2035
01:51:19,600 --> 01:51:22,960
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's Trevor Lawrence more likely to win Rookie

2036
01:51:23,160 --> 01:51:29,080
Speaker 1: of the Year. Trevor Lawrence or Zach Wilson. There's another

2037
01:51:29,200 --> 01:51:32,479
Speaker 1: easy one. Yeah, I gotta see Trevor Lawrence. I think

2038
01:51:32,600 --> 01:51:37,160
Speaker 1: Zach's gonna struggle. I do too. I think Zach I don't.

2039
01:51:37,240 --> 01:51:38,479
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can see that right. And

2040
01:51:38,560 --> 01:51:40,920
Speaker 1: that's what I was wrong about Sam Arnold, or at

2041
01:51:40,960 --> 01:51:45,040
Speaker 1: least to this point, because he's not there. So I

2042
01:51:45,080 --> 01:51:47,400
Speaker 1: could be wrong about Zach Wilson just as easily. But

2043
01:51:47,560 --> 01:51:51,000
Speaker 1: I just see I just see that going up inside.

2044
01:51:51,000 --> 01:51:53,160
Speaker 1: I worry about his size. I mean, I know they've

2045
01:51:53,200 --> 01:51:56,439
Speaker 1: invested in their offensive line, but he's not a big

2046
01:51:56,479 --> 01:52:02,600
Speaker 1: guy getting hit by NFL players every week. I just

2047
01:52:03,680 --> 01:52:05,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, you don't know if he's gonna

2048
01:52:05,400 --> 01:52:07,000
Speaker 1: go back to it. I go back to that draft

2049
01:52:07,080 --> 01:52:09,280
Speaker 1: picture with Greg Russo standing next to him, when the

2050
01:52:09,320 --> 01:52:12,320
Speaker 1: line with all the five draft pictures and Guig Russo

2051
01:52:12,439 --> 01:52:18,240
Speaker 1: standing there and Zach Wilson. Yeah, no, the NFL should

2052
01:52:18,320 --> 01:52:23,040
Speaker 1: make the schedule release a full day event, yes or no?

2053
01:52:23,200 --> 01:52:28,960
Speaker 1: A full day event? Please? No? No? Yeah, I think

2054
01:52:29,040 --> 01:52:33,160
Speaker 1: that's a I've passed. Yeah, hard passed. That's a hard pass,

2055
01:52:33,320 --> 01:52:37,599
Speaker 1: had pass make it? And an hour is plenty? Yes,

2056
01:52:38,360 --> 01:52:42,559
Speaker 1: more than enough plenty. Uh. Players would be better off

2057
01:52:42,680 --> 01:52:46,160
Speaker 1: with elimination of all off season work. Yes or no?

2058
01:52:47,280 --> 01:52:49,160
Speaker 1: That's no. Yeah, it's a no for me. It's not

2059
01:52:49,360 --> 01:52:51,519
Speaker 1: for me. It's no for me. Dog, And I don't

2060
01:52:51,520 --> 01:52:53,680
Speaker 1: want to. I don't want to. I'm not one of

2061
01:52:53,720 --> 01:52:55,840
Speaker 1: these a bitter old guys. You said, Ah, they should

2062
01:52:55,880 --> 01:52:59,160
Speaker 1: just back. I've said it before, like, you know, what

2063
01:52:59,200 --> 01:53:01,960
Speaker 1: are they gonna do? The clubs go, hey, we're paying

2064
01:53:02,000 --> 01:53:04,280
Speaker 1: you millions of dollars. You show up for work every day.

2065
01:53:04,320 --> 01:53:07,479
Speaker 1: What's wrong with that? I'm not gonna say that again,

2066
01:53:09,320 --> 01:53:12,519
Speaker 1: but I think players would love wouldn't we all love

2067
01:53:13,439 --> 01:53:17,240
Speaker 1: a six month or seven month vacation between seasons? Sure?

2068
01:53:17,720 --> 01:53:21,720
Speaker 1: If you're a player or from your job whatever. Um,

2069
01:53:23,400 --> 01:53:26,760
Speaker 1: but is it best for the company? Probably not, Probably not. Yeah,

2070
01:53:26,800 --> 01:53:28,800
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think you can ever get to

2071
01:53:28,920 --> 01:53:32,160
Speaker 1: a place where it's all gone. You gotta do some work.

2072
01:53:33,120 --> 01:53:35,320
Speaker 1: It's too complicated a game, yeah, just to kind of

2073
01:53:35,400 --> 01:53:37,599
Speaker 1: keep it fresh. The game is too complicated to give

2074
01:53:37,720 --> 01:53:40,240
Speaker 1: to get away from it completely for too long. Trevor

2075
01:53:40,479 --> 01:53:44,240
Speaker 1: Lawrence will it's a big Trevor Lawrence's day. Here we go.

2076
01:53:44,360 --> 01:53:46,760
Speaker 1: It's the daily special. This is like going to a

2077
01:53:46,880 --> 01:53:49,439
Speaker 1: certain you know, it's like an Italian restaurants. This is

2078
01:53:49,439 --> 01:53:54,080
Speaker 1: a Trevor a lot of parm here. Trevor Lawrence will

2079
01:53:54,720 --> 01:53:58,040
Speaker 1: or will not leave the Jags to a winning season

2080
01:53:58,680 --> 01:54:01,160
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. In twenty twenty one, he won't.

2081
01:54:02,120 --> 01:54:04,400
Speaker 1: Do you think they'll be near nobody can be five

2082
01:54:04,520 --> 01:54:09,479
Speaker 1: hundred anymore? How about that? You know? Wow, here, let's

2083
01:54:09,520 --> 01:54:11,120
Speaker 1: think about it. Even if they play well in that

2084
01:54:11,280 --> 01:54:18,639
Speaker 1: division and sweep the Houston Texans and sweep the Tennessee Titans,

2085
01:54:19,000 --> 01:54:22,840
Speaker 1: they ain't sweeping the Indianapolis Colts. In fact, they make

2086
01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:24,720
Speaker 1: the best they can do in my mind, is three

2087
01:54:24,760 --> 01:54:27,960
Speaker 1: and three split with a split with the Titans. Get

2088
01:54:28,080 --> 01:54:32,680
Speaker 1: swept by the Colts and sweep Houston. That's three and

2089
01:54:32,760 --> 01:54:35,920
Speaker 1: three in the division. That gives them three wins. And

2090
01:54:36,120 --> 01:54:39,440
Speaker 1: then they're playing name. When they beating Buffalo, they may

2091
01:54:39,520 --> 01:54:42,280
Speaker 1: beat the Jets. I think Trevor Lawrence could beat the Jets.

2092
01:54:42,960 --> 01:54:44,960
Speaker 1: So you know, yeah, I mean they're gonna they're playing.

2093
01:54:45,160 --> 01:54:52,600
Speaker 1: So the Jags this year are playing the Let's see here,

2094
01:54:53,320 --> 01:54:58,320
Speaker 1: they're playing the AFC East and they are playing the

2095
01:54:59,040 --> 01:55:06,000
Speaker 1: NFC West. It appears yes, NFC West, AFC East and

2096
01:55:06,160 --> 01:55:10,840
Speaker 1: NFC West. Yeah, that's a tough and they're out of conferences.

2097
01:55:11,040 --> 01:55:15,920
Speaker 1: They're out of division is the Bengals and the other

2098
01:55:16,160 --> 01:55:21,600
Speaker 1: out of division game would be Bronchos. I don't know, man,

2099
01:55:21,680 --> 01:55:23,360
Speaker 1: that should be able to win some here and they're

2100
01:55:23,360 --> 01:55:26,280
Speaker 1: not gonna. They're opener. They could win the opener. They're

2101
01:55:26,320 --> 01:55:29,320
Speaker 1: at Houston. Well, they could win. They could beat the Broncos.

2102
01:55:29,360 --> 01:55:30,760
Speaker 1: They could go two and oh. They could go two

2103
01:55:30,800 --> 01:55:34,080
Speaker 1: and oh out and they got home against Arizona and

2104
01:55:34,080 --> 01:55:36,560
Speaker 1: the Burrow. Lawrence showed out, what are they gonna do

2105
01:55:36,600 --> 01:55:38,960
Speaker 1: if they go four and two in their first six

2106
01:55:39,120 --> 01:55:41,560
Speaker 1: games and they lose their last two though Weeks five,

2107
01:55:41,600 --> 01:55:45,880
Speaker 1: weeks six, you know, I don't know they could get

2108
01:55:45,880 --> 01:55:47,880
Speaker 1: off to how about how about that. I think they'll

2109
01:55:47,960 --> 01:55:53,560
Speaker 1: be competitive. I think they'll be somewhere between six and

2110
01:55:53,680 --> 01:55:56,120
Speaker 1: eleven and eight and nine. I think they'll be somewhere

2111
01:55:56,160 --> 01:55:58,320
Speaker 1: in there. So I don't think they will be have

2112
01:55:58,440 --> 01:56:02,800
Speaker 1: a winning season. They'll close though, remin Meral, it's gonna

2113
01:56:02,800 --> 01:56:05,920
Speaker 1: be interesting to see his transition to the pro game

2114
01:56:05,960 --> 01:56:11,040
Speaker 1: and how it goes for him more likely Hall of

2115
01:56:11,240 --> 01:56:23,120
Speaker 1: Famer Lashawn McCoy or Julian Edelman. Lashawn because Julian does

2116
01:56:23,160 --> 01:56:25,040
Speaker 1: didn't have a body of work. I mean, it's just

2117
01:56:25,160 --> 01:56:27,920
Speaker 1: his numbers. Just got the championships. He's got championships. But

2118
01:56:28,880 --> 01:56:31,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I think I don't want to

2119
01:56:31,200 --> 01:56:34,160
Speaker 1: say it, but him. But Tom Brady. Let's face it,

2120
01:56:34,440 --> 01:56:37,400
Speaker 1: tom Brady going to Tampa Bay and winning one right

2121
01:56:37,400 --> 01:56:40,960
Speaker 1: out of the gate kind of took the polish off

2122
01:56:41,120 --> 01:56:43,920
Speaker 1: of New England and all the things that they accomplished there.

2123
01:56:43,920 --> 01:56:45,800
Speaker 1: Because now you got to give Tom Brady the lion's

2124
01:56:45,840 --> 01:56:47,520
Speaker 1: share of the credit for how that all went down,

2125
01:56:47,600 --> 01:56:49,880
Speaker 1: and including the players that played around him, which of

2126
01:56:49,960 --> 01:56:53,480
Speaker 1: which there were dozens upon dozens. I mean, the roster

2127
01:56:53,800 --> 01:56:59,120
Speaker 1: with Tom Brady was over twenty years. Yeah, was churned

2128
01:56:59,200 --> 01:57:02,640
Speaker 1: through like like nobody's business. And I think there were

2129
01:57:02,680 --> 01:57:04,720
Speaker 1: a number of guys who benefited from They're guys who,

2130
01:57:05,040 --> 01:57:08,400
Speaker 1: you know, most casual football fans have never heard their name,

2131
01:57:08,480 --> 01:57:12,680
Speaker 1: who have three Super Bowl rings with that guy, you know,

2132
01:57:12,920 --> 01:57:17,680
Speaker 1: So you know, throw Edelman into that and there's no Now,

2133
01:57:17,760 --> 01:57:20,520
Speaker 1: there's no doubt. He does lead the league and a

2134
01:57:20,600 --> 01:57:25,200
Speaker 1: lot of categories in playoff statistics, and he made some

2135
01:57:25,560 --> 01:57:30,800
Speaker 1: iconic plays in the playoffs. Yeah, but when you're talking

2136
01:57:31,200 --> 01:57:33,360
Speaker 1: and for lack of a better way to put it,

2137
01:57:33,880 --> 01:57:35,760
Speaker 1: I think Julian Edelman is going to fall into a

2138
01:57:35,800 --> 01:57:37,800
Speaker 1: little bit of the problem people have when they talk

2139
01:57:37,840 --> 01:57:43,240
Speaker 1: about my resume as a Hall of Famer. It's not enough.

2140
01:57:43,520 --> 01:57:46,400
Speaker 1: It's not enough. There's a well, I wonder if you

2141
01:57:46,400 --> 01:57:48,520
Speaker 1: could gets it, he'll be on the list all the time,

2142
01:57:48,720 --> 01:57:51,680
Speaker 1: just like me. But like me, I think my list

2143
01:57:51,720 --> 01:57:54,240
Speaker 1: will my name would come below Julian Edemans and you're

2144
01:57:54,280 --> 01:57:55,760
Speaker 1: just too far down on the list. And every year

2145
01:57:55,760 --> 01:57:57,880
Speaker 1: they put in five guys and you're like number eight

2146
01:57:58,000 --> 01:58:00,280
Speaker 1: or nine on the list. So it's hard. It's a

2147
01:58:00,320 --> 01:58:02,640
Speaker 1: hard list to crack. I think that's what Julian's looking

2148
01:58:02,640 --> 01:58:06,160
Speaker 1: at I'm wondering if Lashawn McCoy's done enough too. Well,

2149
01:58:06,240 --> 01:58:10,080
Speaker 1: that's true, but he's got a career that's very good,

2150
01:58:10,440 --> 01:58:16,600
Speaker 1: eleven just over eleven thousand rushing yards and he's got,

2151
01:58:16,800 --> 01:58:22,560
Speaker 1: let's see here, career receiving yards almost thirty nine hundred.

2152
01:58:23,480 --> 01:58:30,240
Speaker 1: So you're talking fifteen thousand yards from scrimmage in twelve seasons.

2153
01:58:31,440 --> 01:58:34,040
Speaker 1: It's pretty good. It's pretty good. It's impressed. A lot

2154
01:58:34,120 --> 01:58:37,480
Speaker 1: of people say twelve thousand yards is the magic number.

2155
01:58:38,040 --> 01:58:39,920
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna have fewer and fewer of those

2156
01:58:40,000 --> 01:58:43,240
Speaker 1: guys hitting that number here soon, and McCoy is kind

2157
01:58:43,280 --> 01:58:46,000
Speaker 1: of the start of that, particularly the running back spot. Well,

2158
01:58:46,000 --> 01:58:48,840
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. Twelve thousand yards was considered like

2159
01:58:48,960 --> 01:58:53,320
Speaker 1: that magic threshold to get strongly considered for the Hall

2160
01:58:53,360 --> 01:58:55,720
Speaker 1: of Fame. I think Ricky Waters was the only guy

2161
01:58:55,800 --> 01:58:58,000
Speaker 1: with over twelve thousand career rushing yards that isn't in

2162
01:58:58,000 --> 01:59:01,480
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, like the only one. So here's

2163
01:59:01,560 --> 01:59:05,960
Speaker 1: Leshawn at eleven one. But he is at the forefront

2164
01:59:06,080 --> 01:59:10,640
Speaker 1: of an era of football where I mean Brian Westbrook

2165
01:59:10,760 --> 01:59:12,440
Speaker 1: was carrying a lot the ball a lot at the

2166
01:59:12,520 --> 01:59:15,200
Speaker 1: beginning of Leshawn's career, so they were sharing the ball

2167
01:59:17,160 --> 01:59:18,920
Speaker 1: and then there was a spell of time where he

2168
01:59:19,120 --> 01:59:25,720
Speaker 1: was the guy. But he's only got one two He's

2169
01:59:25,760 --> 01:59:27,960
Speaker 1: only got two seasons in which he had three hundred

2170
01:59:28,000 --> 01:59:32,120
Speaker 1: carries or more. He's only got counting those two. He's

2171
01:59:32,160 --> 01:59:34,280
Speaker 1: only got two other seasons where he's had more than

2172
01:59:34,320 --> 01:59:37,080
Speaker 1: two hundred and seventy carries in a season. His next

2173
01:59:37,160 --> 01:59:39,440
Speaker 1: busiest season is two hundred and thirty four carries with

2174
01:59:39,480 --> 01:59:45,800
Speaker 1: Buffalo in twenty sixteen. I mean, he wasn't a true workhorse,

2175
01:59:45,960 --> 01:59:50,280
Speaker 1: bell cow rusher and probably could not have been at

2176
01:59:50,320 --> 01:59:53,400
Speaker 1: his size five ten, you know, two hundred and five pounds.

2177
01:59:54,120 --> 01:59:59,560
Speaker 1: So I don't know. He's a tough call because he

2178
01:59:59,720 --> 02:00:02,720
Speaker 1: came in when the era of what a running back,

2179
02:00:03,200 --> 02:00:06,680
Speaker 1: what's required of a running back started to shift and change. Yeah,

2180
02:00:06,800 --> 02:00:09,800
Speaker 1: So does do the electors take that into consideration or

2181
02:00:09,840 --> 02:00:12,960
Speaker 1: do they compare them against the enshrines and say he

2182
02:00:13,040 --> 02:00:16,040
Speaker 1: doesn't measure up. Certainly, I would say he's not going

2183
02:00:16,080 --> 02:00:19,200
Speaker 1: to get on the first ballot. No, okay, no, once

2184
02:00:19,240 --> 02:00:21,640
Speaker 1: you get there, think about this. I think Lashawn McCoy

2185
02:00:21,680 --> 02:00:24,320
Speaker 1: will be one of those guys that as the game changes,

2186
02:00:25,640 --> 02:00:28,160
Speaker 1: some other candidates that running back will come up and

2187
02:00:28,200 --> 02:00:31,240
Speaker 1: they'll say wow, and then they'll he'll come up and

2188
02:00:31,400 --> 02:00:33,080
Speaker 1: he'll be wow, he made a difference for a really

2189
02:00:33,120 --> 02:00:35,480
Speaker 1: good team. He had a nice career. And then you'll

2190
02:00:35,520 --> 02:00:37,960
Speaker 1: hold his numbers up and Lashan McCoy will be like, well,

2191
02:00:38,200 --> 02:00:41,640
Speaker 1: Leshaun McCoy did it fifteen years before he did. Look

2192
02:00:41,680 --> 02:00:44,120
Speaker 1: at look at Lashn's even better than this guy and

2193
02:00:44,240 --> 02:00:46,840
Speaker 1: he's not in. And then it'll be like, Okay, you

2194
02:00:46,920 --> 02:00:49,200
Speaker 1: get my guy in, I'll get your guy in kind

2195
02:00:49,240 --> 02:00:53,680
Speaker 1: of thing, which it's tricky. Yeah, it's tricky, especially when

2196
02:00:53,720 --> 02:00:56,080
Speaker 1: the game changes to such a degree that it directly

2197
02:00:56,120 --> 02:01:00,320
Speaker 1: affects skill positions like running back. Right. So I think

2198
02:01:00,360 --> 02:01:03,000
Speaker 1: it's a tough call there. You don't want to just

2199
02:01:03,160 --> 02:01:06,760
Speaker 1: dismiss him out of hand, but I think there's there's

2200
02:01:06,760 --> 02:01:09,320
Speaker 1: a lot of that's going to have to be undertaken there.

2201
02:01:09,560 --> 02:01:13,040
Speaker 1: His career is too impressive to dismiss And I would

2202
02:01:13,080 --> 02:01:15,000
Speaker 1: say that he might even get be one of those

2203
02:01:15,080 --> 02:01:18,120
Speaker 1: guys that he'll be certainly be nominated and he'll certainly

2204
02:01:18,160 --> 02:01:20,400
Speaker 1: be a semifinalist, but he'll be one of those guys

2205
02:01:20,440 --> 02:01:23,600
Speaker 1: that may you know, because once they get into that

2206
02:01:23,720 --> 02:01:26,839
Speaker 1: final room, into the final fifteen or something, almost everybody

2207
02:01:26,880 --> 02:01:31,160
Speaker 1: that gets into that room goes sooner or later. Leshaun

2208
02:01:31,280 --> 02:01:34,040
Speaker 1: might be one of those guys that sooner or later

2209
02:01:34,080 --> 02:01:37,440
Speaker 1: he'll get in, but he'll take a while. But certainly

2210
02:01:37,520 --> 02:01:41,480
Speaker 1: his his you can't just brush aside his career because

2211
02:01:41,480 --> 02:01:46,400
Speaker 1: it was far too impressive. And I think for that matter,

2212
02:01:46,560 --> 02:01:49,720
Speaker 1: for that reason, he'll be He'll stay relevant in that conversation.

2213
02:01:49,840 --> 02:01:52,600
Speaker 1: It'll be one of those things where but I think

2214
02:01:52,720 --> 02:01:56,440
Speaker 1: his resume because of the length and the quality of it,

2215
02:01:56,560 --> 02:01:59,400
Speaker 1: and let's face it, the guy's got two world championships himself.

2216
02:02:02,080 --> 02:02:04,120
Speaker 1: You know he's gonna get He's gonna get in that room,

2217
02:02:04,120 --> 02:02:07,560
Speaker 1: and I think eventually probably will get in. A break

2218
02:02:07,640 --> 02:02:11,160
Speaker 1: time for us here. That was what's for lunch, Steve

2219
02:02:11,240 --> 02:02:14,840
Speaker 1: and I will return with NFL true false. That's coming

2220
02:02:14,880 --> 02:02:17,040
Speaker 1: your way next here on One Bill's Live, presented by

2221
02:02:17,120 --> 02:02:29,640
Speaker 1: Collide to Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. Buck back to

2222
02:02:29,720 --> 02:02:32,360
Speaker 1: one Bills Live. Some more news coming out of the

2223
02:02:32,400 --> 02:02:37,320
Speaker 1: owner's meetings, and multiple national reporters are now reporting that

2224
02:02:37,480 --> 02:02:40,360
Speaker 1: the NFL and the Players Association have agreed to a

2225
02:02:40,520 --> 02:02:44,839
Speaker 1: salary cap ceiling of two hundred eight point two million

2226
02:02:44,920 --> 02:02:47,840
Speaker 1: dollars for the twenty twenty two seasons, so if it

2227
02:02:47,960 --> 02:02:52,120
Speaker 1: gets there, and that is dependent upon revenue, but this

2228
02:02:52,280 --> 02:02:55,320
Speaker 1: is a projection, So the salary cap projection is two

2229
02:02:55,360 --> 02:02:59,520
Speaker 1: o eight point two for twenty twenty two, and they

2230
02:02:59,600 --> 02:03:02,720
Speaker 1: believe if they meet the revenues that they're projected to reach,

2231
02:03:02,960 --> 02:03:06,080
Speaker 1: it will remain there. That would be a fourteen percent

2232
02:03:06,200 --> 02:03:08,840
Speaker 1: increase over the twenty twenty one cap, which was the

2233
02:03:08,920 --> 02:03:12,640
Speaker 1: restrictive cap of one hundred eighty two point five million.

2234
02:03:13,160 --> 02:03:16,160
Speaker 1: This is huge for the Bills because the Bills are

2235
02:03:16,240 --> 02:03:20,320
Speaker 1: one of six teams according to Field Yates that has

2236
02:03:20,760 --> 02:03:25,600
Speaker 1: cap commitments of over two hundred million dollars already for

2237
02:03:25,760 --> 02:03:30,000
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two at two hundred one million dollars. Now,

2238
02:03:30,040 --> 02:03:33,400
Speaker 1: that of course is counting the fifty year options of

2239
02:03:33,560 --> 02:03:37,680
Speaker 1: one Tremaine Edmonds and Josh Allen, which amount to about

2240
02:03:37,760 --> 02:03:42,760
Speaker 1: thirty five million and change. Those numbers can be massaged

2241
02:03:43,160 --> 02:03:46,480
Speaker 1: if both of those players get contract extensions and the

2242
02:03:46,560 --> 02:03:49,000
Speaker 1: Bills can kind of maneuver the numbers on a long

2243
02:03:49,160 --> 02:03:51,400
Speaker 1: term deal. Yeah, so that's interesting. Two hundred and eight

2244
02:03:51,440 --> 02:03:54,120
Speaker 1: point two it was. It was supposed to be to

2245
02:03:54,560 --> 02:03:59,120
Speaker 1: twelve this year. Well they were after this restrictive cap

2246
02:03:59,160 --> 02:04:01,800
Speaker 1: of one eighty two point point five. A lot of

2247
02:04:01,880 --> 02:04:06,200
Speaker 1: the capsites were projecting one night, which was what it

2248
02:04:06,440 --> 02:04:09,880
Speaker 1: was last year, right, they were thinking, okay, well they

2249
02:04:09,880 --> 02:04:11,720
Speaker 1: can at least get back to that number, and I

2250
02:04:11,760 --> 02:04:13,720
Speaker 1: think a lot of people were working their projections off

2251
02:04:13,760 --> 02:04:19,240
Speaker 1: of that. So two o eight point two is encouraging news.

2252
02:04:19,560 --> 02:04:22,280
Speaker 1: And I think it also is an indication that the

2253
02:04:22,400 --> 02:04:24,760
Speaker 1: NFL owners expect to have full capacity at all their

2254
02:04:24,800 --> 02:04:27,280
Speaker 1: stadium so that the ticket revenue is back full force,

2255
02:04:27,800 --> 02:04:34,680
Speaker 1: if not full capacity, certainly a large percentage of full capacity. Yeah,

2256
02:04:35,360 --> 02:04:37,240
Speaker 1: but that makes the cost of doing business a whole

2257
02:04:37,280 --> 02:04:40,920
Speaker 1: lot easier for the gms across the league. Question. Yeah,

2258
02:04:41,000 --> 02:04:43,160
Speaker 1: absolutely they can. At least they can. They know what

2259
02:04:43,240 --> 02:04:45,960
Speaker 1: they're what they're looking at, and I think most of

2260
02:04:46,040 --> 02:04:48,520
Speaker 1: them will probably go forward and say, hey, we're going

2261
02:04:48,600 --> 02:04:52,640
Speaker 1: to get there. So yeah, that's that's interesting. Two and eight.

2262
02:04:52,760 --> 02:04:55,000
Speaker 1: That gives you a chance to fit to sign a

2263
02:04:55,120 --> 02:04:57,560
Speaker 1: Josh Allen and a Tremaine Edmonds to an extension. You

2264
02:04:57,600 --> 02:05:00,360
Speaker 1: can get that on the table and say listener, we agreed, yeah, okay,

2265
02:05:00,520 --> 02:05:03,200
Speaker 1: and they can agree with my little finger quotes in

2266
02:05:03,360 --> 02:05:06,640
Speaker 1: principle to the deal, and as soon as the league

2267
02:05:06,720 --> 02:05:08,680
Speaker 1: year is over this year, they can sign that and

2268
02:05:09,040 --> 02:05:10,880
Speaker 1: the and be on the books with it. Yeah, it's

2269
02:05:10,920 --> 02:05:15,600
Speaker 1: a it's a guiding figure that at least they have

2270
02:05:15,840 --> 02:05:19,240
Speaker 1: some semblance of an idea on what they're likely to

2271
02:05:19,320 --> 02:05:22,240
Speaker 1: be working with. In terms of a hard and fast cabinet,

2272
02:05:22,240 --> 02:05:25,720
Speaker 1: there's there's there's a lot of accounting that still has

2273
02:05:25,760 --> 02:05:27,680
Speaker 1: to take place before any of this stuff gets in

2274
02:05:27,720 --> 02:05:30,840
Speaker 1: set in stone. I mean, there's gonna be guys that

2275
02:05:31,600 --> 02:05:34,480
Speaker 1: the Bills don't no longer want on their roster. There's

2276
02:05:34,480 --> 02:05:36,960
Speaker 1: gonna be guys they've got assigned to extensions. There's got

2277
02:05:37,040 --> 02:05:38,880
Speaker 1: to be going to be guys that they didn't know

2278
02:05:39,000 --> 02:05:40,840
Speaker 1: could play that can play, they need to sign them,

2279
02:05:40,920 --> 02:05:42,960
Speaker 1: and guys that they thought could play that can't. They

2280
02:05:43,000 --> 02:05:45,000
Speaker 1: got to get rid of that. So there's a lot

2281
02:05:45,080 --> 02:05:48,720
Speaker 1: of and I use players as an example, a lot

2282
02:05:48,760 --> 02:05:50,680
Speaker 1: of accounting that goes into it. So it's going to

2283
02:05:50,760 --> 02:05:53,360
Speaker 1: be interesting. But at least now they've got a number

2284
02:05:53,400 --> 02:05:55,480
Speaker 1: to work off of, and certainly you can see there's

2285
02:05:55,480 --> 02:06:00,400
Speaker 1: gonna be room for josh Alan, Tremaine, Edmunds, extensions in there.

2286
02:06:00,440 --> 02:06:04,080
Speaker 1: That's that's nice. It helps. There's no question. Well, if

2287
02:06:04,240 --> 02:06:06,360
Speaker 1: if you've got teams like the Houston Texans and the

2288
02:06:06,480 --> 02:06:09,520
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys and all that thrown at forty million plus

2289
02:06:09,640 --> 02:06:12,920
Speaker 1: dollars at their quarterbacks under the other old cap, the

2290
02:06:13,000 --> 02:06:15,960
Speaker 1: one ninety eight cap, they'll be able to do it.

2291
02:06:16,040 --> 02:06:20,160
Speaker 1: Here time for a little NFL True false brought to

2292
02:06:20,200 --> 02:06:27,440
Speaker 1: you by Yancy's Fancy Yancy's Fancy New York's Artisan Cheese, Steve,

2293
02:06:27,720 --> 02:06:30,840
Speaker 1: Are you ready? So ready? Okay, So we go to

2294
02:06:31,160 --> 02:06:35,000
Speaker 1: true falls and number one on the list, the Seahawks

2295
02:06:35,560 --> 02:06:40,960
Speaker 1: are the most vulnerable division leader from twenty twenty. So

2296
02:06:41,080 --> 02:06:43,000
Speaker 1: I guess the question here is, is there a division

2297
02:06:43,120 --> 02:06:46,720
Speaker 1: champion more vulnerable to losing their grip on the top

2298
02:06:46,800 --> 02:06:49,800
Speaker 1: spot in their division than the Seahawks? I think there is. Okay,

2299
02:06:50,000 --> 02:06:52,240
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers are more I was going to talk

2300
02:06:52,240 --> 02:06:53,960
Speaker 1: about them as well. Yes, you can make it a

2301
02:06:54,040 --> 02:06:57,200
Speaker 1: case of the NFC. The NFC West is competitive, no

2302
02:06:57,320 --> 02:07:00,040
Speaker 1: question about it. The San Francisco forty nine, with a

2303
02:07:00,120 --> 02:07:03,400
Speaker 1: healthy Jimmy Garoppolo and a healthy defense and a healthy roster,

2304
02:07:04,120 --> 02:07:06,800
Speaker 1: are a much better football team. The LA Rams with

2305
02:07:07,120 --> 02:07:11,080
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford at quarterback or a much better football team.

2306
02:07:11,280 --> 02:07:14,440
Speaker 1: And Arizona with Kyler Murray and the work they've done

2307
02:07:14,480 --> 02:07:18,200
Speaker 1: in this offseason another year under their Yes, the NFC

2308
02:07:18,360 --> 02:07:20,840
Speaker 1: West is competitive, but the Seahawks is gonna be good,

2309
02:07:20,920 --> 02:07:24,200
Speaker 1: I think, and they're you know, they're the same team. Pittsburgh,

2310
02:07:25,000 --> 02:07:28,240
Speaker 1: They've got some question marks. Baltimore's got another year under

2311
02:07:28,240 --> 02:07:31,240
Speaker 1: its belt with Lamar Jackson evolving that offense around him.

2312
02:07:31,840 --> 02:07:35,200
Speaker 1: Cleveland is a much better football team than they were

2313
02:07:35,480 --> 02:07:38,600
Speaker 1: have been in the past years. And Cincinnati Joe Burrow

2314
02:07:38,680 --> 02:07:41,000
Speaker 1: coming back healthy with a better offensive line, they're gonna

2315
02:07:41,040 --> 02:07:45,400
Speaker 1: be an issue. So I think the Steelers are more vulnerable,

2316
02:07:45,440 --> 02:07:48,960
Speaker 1: particularly with Ben at quarterback because of his age and fragility.

2317
02:07:49,320 --> 02:07:52,720
Speaker 1: I think there are other teams that are vulnerable, certainly

2318
02:07:52,840 --> 02:07:58,600
Speaker 1: more than Seattle is. I would put New Orleans in

2319
02:07:58,680 --> 02:08:01,320
Speaker 1: that mix because they're gonna take a step back and

2320
02:08:01,400 --> 02:08:05,280
Speaker 1: they have to contend with Tampa. And then you have

2321
02:08:05,640 --> 02:08:09,120
Speaker 1: Tennessee Tennessee, who has to contend with Indy. There's really

2322
02:08:09,160 --> 02:08:12,920
Speaker 1: only one threat there, It's Indie. Both those teams finished

2323
02:08:12,920 --> 02:08:19,760
Speaker 1: with identical records last year. Yes, so Tennis it's probably

2324
02:08:19,840 --> 02:08:22,960
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh because there's more than one suitor after their title

2325
02:08:23,360 --> 02:08:25,760
Speaker 1: that you could legitimately see winning the division. You could

2326
02:08:25,800 --> 02:08:28,400
Speaker 1: see Cleveland winning that division. You could see Baltimore winning

2327
02:08:28,480 --> 02:08:31,480
Speaker 1: that division. The other two divisions, there's really only one

2328
02:08:31,680 --> 02:08:34,440
Speaker 1: threat coming after them in the AFC South or the

2329
02:08:34,600 --> 02:08:39,280
Speaker 1: NFC South. Although some people believe Atlanta is gonna bounce back,

2330
02:08:39,360 --> 02:08:41,480
Speaker 1: but I don't see it under a first year head coach.

2331
02:08:42,440 --> 02:08:45,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, I would say Pittsburgh is probably the most vulnerable,

2332
02:08:45,280 --> 02:08:46,680
Speaker 1: so I will see it falls and you can make

2333
02:08:46,720 --> 02:08:48,680
Speaker 1: a sense. You can make a case for New Orleans

2334
02:08:48,760 --> 02:08:52,480
Speaker 1: two twelve and four against Tampa. Yeah, but there's really

2335
02:08:52,520 --> 02:08:55,879
Speaker 1: only ten. I think it's easier almost to find division

2336
02:08:55,920 --> 02:08:59,520
Speaker 1: winners who are not vulnerable. Green Bay certainly first amongst them.

2337
02:08:59,520 --> 02:09:02,600
Speaker 1: They were twelve, thirteen and three last year. Chicago was

2338
02:09:02,680 --> 02:09:06,600
Speaker 1: next at eight and eight. They had it sewn up

2339
02:09:06,640 --> 02:09:10,760
Speaker 1: by thanks Again. The NFC North is a joke. It's

2340
02:09:10,800 --> 02:09:14,919
Speaker 1: a dumpster fire. Green Bay's a nice team, a nice franchise.

2341
02:09:15,000 --> 02:09:17,480
Speaker 1: They run things by the book. They're the only team

2342
02:09:17,560 --> 02:09:23,000
Speaker 1: in that division who can do that. Apparently Minnesota, oh gosh,

2343
02:09:24,880 --> 02:09:30,080
Speaker 1: Detroit and Chicago. They need to bust that thing up

2344
02:09:30,160 --> 02:09:34,120
Speaker 1: and spread, spread that weak division out amongst teams that

2345
02:09:34,160 --> 02:09:36,840
Speaker 1: actually have some teams they gotta play again. Spread that

2346
02:09:37,080 --> 02:09:43,600
Speaker 1: barren wasteland of nons some easy wins. Yeah, Oh my gosh.

2347
02:09:44,320 --> 02:09:47,240
Speaker 1: Detroit and Chicago the same dumpster fire every year. They

2348
02:09:47,360 --> 02:09:52,960
Speaker 1: just live in different cities. Okay, let us know how

2349
02:09:53,000 --> 02:09:56,400
Speaker 1: you really feel that Green Bay's thirteen and three and

2350
02:09:56,480 --> 02:09:59,480
Speaker 1: nobody else can get up up five hundred. Yeah, I

2351
02:09:59,640 --> 02:10:06,680
Speaker 1: get it. It's that way every single year, almost almost

2352
02:10:06,760 --> 02:10:09,520
Speaker 1: every year. No wonder, no wonder, a Rodgerson, Brett Favre

2353
02:10:09,600 --> 02:10:13,440
Speaker 1: in the Hall of Fame. Well, Rogers isn't there yet,

2354
02:10:13,480 --> 02:10:18,560
Speaker 1: but he will be. Okay, we're gonna let Steve take

2355
02:10:18,600 --> 02:10:21,760
Speaker 1: a breath, we will take a break, and we will

2356
02:10:21,800 --> 02:10:23,680
Speaker 1: have what have we learned when we return here on

2357
02:10:23,720 --> 02:10:26,040
Speaker 1: One Bill's Live, presented by Kalid to Health, It's Buffalo

2358
02:10:26,080 --> 02:10:43,320
Speaker 1: Bill's Radio. What have we learned? Brought to you by Skyworks,

2359
02:10:43,840 --> 02:10:46,640
Speaker 1: the official construction equipment rental company of the Buffalo Bill is.

2360
02:10:46,680 --> 02:10:49,480
Speaker 1: Probably the most important thing we learned is that the

2361
02:10:49,760 --> 02:10:53,560
Speaker 1: cap for twenty twenty two is going up fourteen percent

2362
02:10:53,680 --> 02:10:55,560
Speaker 1: from what it is right now to two hundred eight

2363
02:10:55,600 --> 02:10:58,600
Speaker 1: point two million dollars provided all the revenue marks and

2364
02:10:58,760 --> 02:11:02,240
Speaker 1: projections are hit, which will help just about every team

2365
02:11:02,280 --> 02:11:05,000
Speaker 1: in the league, but will certainly help the Bills here

2366
02:11:05,040 --> 02:11:11,400
Speaker 1: in Buffalo. Knowing the contract extensions that are forthcoming, shall

2367
02:11:11,480 --> 02:11:15,280
Speaker 1: we say, Yeah, and that's gonna that paves the way

2368
02:11:15,320 --> 02:11:17,280
Speaker 1: for the Bills to start cracking a little bit more

2369
02:11:17,560 --> 02:11:20,200
Speaker 1: in concrete terms with Josh Allen Tremaine Edmonds about a

2370
02:11:20,360 --> 02:11:22,880
Speaker 1: contract extension and one that we'll probably be hearing about

2371
02:11:22,920 --> 02:11:24,680
Speaker 1: in the months to come, or at least I know this,

2372
02:11:25,120 --> 02:11:26,880
Speaker 1: You and I will be hearing about it because Brandon

2373
02:11:26,920 --> 02:11:30,040
Speaker 1: Bee's gonna answer in questions about it, so we'll all

2374
02:11:30,040 --> 02:11:32,560
Speaker 1: be hearing about it, I'm sure. So it's interesting. It's

2375
02:11:32,560 --> 02:11:34,640
Speaker 1: gonna be the first thing that people want to talk

2376
02:11:34,680 --> 02:11:37,600
Speaker 1: about when it comes to the Buffalo Bills outside the

2377
02:11:37,680 --> 02:11:42,560
Speaker 1: lines of football, and Josh, you're gonna get tired of

2378
02:11:42,560 --> 02:11:46,000
Speaker 1: hearing about it. But at least now they've got concrete

2379
02:11:46,080 --> 02:11:47,960
Speaker 1: numbers to work with it and start to structure it

2380
02:11:48,200 --> 02:11:52,920
Speaker 1: and make it happen. Yeah, and you wonder if if

2381
02:11:53,000 --> 02:11:56,720
Speaker 1: it's enough space to allow them to maybe keep a

2382
02:11:56,880 --> 02:12:00,680
Speaker 1: veteran player that maybe they thought based on their projections

2383
02:12:00,720 --> 02:12:04,360
Speaker 1: they may not be able to hold onto because there's

2384
02:12:04,400 --> 02:12:07,760
Speaker 1: a lot of veteran contracts here with some fat numbers

2385
02:12:08,760 --> 02:12:11,240
Speaker 1: that you'll look at and you say, if the cap

2386
02:12:11,320 --> 02:12:14,680
Speaker 1: doesn't go up enough, this guy's going to be around.

2387
02:12:14,840 --> 02:12:17,200
Speaker 1: It also lets them start to lay plans for which

2388
02:12:17,240 --> 02:12:20,160
Speaker 1: guys they have on one year proven deals, or which

2389
02:12:20,240 --> 02:12:22,040
Speaker 1: guy they might be looking at in the or how

2390
02:12:22,120 --> 02:12:24,320
Speaker 1: much money they've got to spend on next year's crop

2391
02:12:24,440 --> 02:12:26,720
Speaker 1: of guys they want on one year proven deals. Right,

2392
02:12:26,800 --> 02:12:30,440
Speaker 1: and this cap, now, if everything stays on course, is

2393
02:12:30,480 --> 02:12:33,560
Speaker 1: going to do nothing but skyrocket, because in twenty twenty three,

2394
02:12:34,080 --> 02:12:38,120
Speaker 1: the new TV deals kick in and everything's gonna get

2395
02:12:38,400 --> 02:12:41,080
Speaker 1: goosed a little bit. I think it's going to be

2396
02:12:41,200 --> 02:12:44,480
Speaker 1: more than a percentage or two jump than it was

2397
