Speaker 1: back in Ope today because the Bills are back in Ope.

9
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 1: Here's the deal. They had a morning walk through an

10
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: Orchard Park and then the players hit the road on

11
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,120

Speaker 1: the field at six fifteen tonight for a practice inside

13
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:49,919

14
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 1: twenty thousand Bills fans there tonight for the return of

15
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: the Blue and the Red. They did it last year.

16
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: You were there last year. Last year, it was it

17
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: was rainy, it was saggy. It was kind of tough

18
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: to watch practice at night. Remember, there's not a good thing.

19
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: Right before practice, wasn't it like a downpourt under enlightning?

20
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: Right before I was hunkering down underneath DJ Milk and

21
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: DJ yes with the in the tent trying to stay dry,

22
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: and it was the MC right, so I had the

23
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: microphone and stuff and it just it was horrible, man,

24
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: it was just couldn't have been worse now, But you know, Sirrve,

25
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: they practice, fans had fun, yeah, and we we were

26
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: here because nobody wants to walk sit through a walkthrough.

27
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to walk through a walk field, let alone

28
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 1: sit through a walk through. UM. The forecast tonight calls

29
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: for better conditions than last year. Cloudys, guys, maybe a

30
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: chance of showers, but really not bad. Last year it

31
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 1: was it was just a foul weather day night when

32
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,119

33
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:39,840

34
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,520

45
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: don't know if it'll be. It's not gonna be an

46

Speaker 1: hour and forty five minute practice or anything like that,

47
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,480

00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: I do have a skit. I got like six of

55
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: those and I never looked at them. Um, I keep

56
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: thinking about the Hall of Fame game of the games

57
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: are starting off. Was singing bash tomorrows they got that

58

60
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,639

63
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: got we got all this stuff on mind. But tonight

64
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: I was thinking that it might be a chance for us.

65
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 1: Just you know, they're gonna the practice hard, but fat

66
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:08,280

67
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,119
Speaker 1: there for very long. I agree. I think they're gonna

68
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: be out there and you're gonna see him do some stuff.

69
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,240

00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: I know you have a lot on your mind, and

71
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,320

124
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,320

156
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 1: pop up pops this huge colorful commercial Watkins Glenn. I

157
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: was like, I sat straight up. I go, oh, that's me,

158
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, it's it's awesome. It is. That's that's

159
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: when I got a little like, I got a little flutter.

160
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 1: You're gonna have I hope, I hope I don't screw

161

162
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,360

163
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: mishaf mishap, let's just because listen. Either way, let's use

164
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: the video on the show Monday, right, if you get

165
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: through a clean here's the thing, here's the thing. I

166
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: was just thinking, you know, I've spent my adult a

167
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: good portion of my adult life putting a helmet on, yeah,

168
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: with fully intent on running into things. And I thought,

169
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: you know, that's the last you put your NASCAR helmet on.

170
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: The last thing you want to do is run into something.

171
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: Am I right? So what do you think you'll have

172
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 1: like some sort of flashback to covering a kickoff when

173
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: you're behind the wheel of the bass car. I got

174
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: emotional scar tissue. I think it's pretty cool. Like did

175
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: I talk you into this? A week ago, we're driving

176
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: down to Rochester and Steve says to me in the car, Hey,

177
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: they want me to do the pace car at Watkins then,

178
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: And I was like, you're gonna do it, right? And

179
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: You're like, I don't know. I got other stuff to

180
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: do that weekend. I was like, I don't know. I mean,

181
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: I didn't know whether you know you never used because

182
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: I don't know enough I'm so ignorant, I don't know

183
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: enough to say absolutely positive. So I started running by you.

184
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 1: I've run it by all the you know, the you know,

185
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: the crew in the back and the control room and

Speaker 1: see if it was a cool thing. Everybody does it

196
00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,640

210
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: knows it's a big deal. And this is a guy

211
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: who works in NASCAR. Yeah, so it was, and I'm

212
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: kind of stoked about it. I can't wait. I gotta

213
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: be there. I gotta be there really early on Sunday. Uh,

214
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: and they're gonna, you know, get me all set up

215
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 1: and squared away about you know, what to do, what

216
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: not to do. And uh. Even AJ McCarn we had

217
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: on yesterday he had driven the pace car Talladega, which

218
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,719
Speaker 1: is an oval course, which did they go fast there?

219
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: And he told us he was going like one seventy

220
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: at one point, but the pace car speed is much

221
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 1: slower than that, is what he said. Yeah, but still

222
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 1: I've been thinking a lot about what A J said yesterday,

223
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: and like running that over in my mind, thinking, I,

224
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: you know what, I am afraid of my own ignorance

225
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: in this realm. That's where. But we do need video.

226
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,959
Speaker 1: I'm comfortable in my own skin. You know that. I

227
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: like me, but I do know my limitations. And sometimes

228
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: when you get out of your area of expertise, you

229
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: don't know those limitations. You're gonna be great. It's gonna

230
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 1: be fun and video. We need video. I can't wait

231
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: to stay in my own lane. Live or die. We

232
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 1: need video on Monday from you. All right, I'll leave

233
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: even I'll leave. I'll leave a codasil in case something

234
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 1: happens that the video goes on. One bills Live no

235
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: matter what. Steve's driving the pace car Sunday at Watkins Ben.

236
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: We're all pretty pumped. We laugh about it. We shouldn't.

237
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,719
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's bad karma. It's I don't think

238
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: that's ever happened. And if it, if it does, somebody

239
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 1: will tell me. I don't want to hear about it.

240
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: It would be fun. We're excited about that. We're about

241
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: the show. I'm excited about tonight's practice. All right, um

242
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: inside the stadium, we're gonna try to get Kelso in

243
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: here in South Capato to do a little practice game.

244
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: I believe that's the plan, probably, you know, six days

245
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: away from the first game. If if we aren't fact

246
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: gonna do next Thursday's game, we should we should practice

247
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: a little bit that. Yeah, I'm looking forward to to practice. Now.

248

Speaker 1: I'm gonna see fred smerls M and see Daryl Tally

249

Speaker 1: to guys I love and respect, and I can't wait

250
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,599
Speaker 1: to see him and see the guys come out of

251
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: that tunnel. And they'll probably I don't know, they probably won't.

252
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: They won't put on game gear for this practice. It'll

253
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: be the practice gear we've been watching the man. Yeah,

254
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 1: and because that's it would be kind of cool. But

255
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna do that, right, They're not

256
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 1: gonna do it's practice gear. So they'll have blue and

257
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 1: white jersey, blue and red jewey. Maybe they will have

258
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 1: red jersey's on right, blue and red and return to

259
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: the blue and red. They're gonna have red jersey as

260
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: the point. I don't know, then what do you put

261
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 1: You gotta put something different on quarterbacks, but well think yeah,

262
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 1: they that's not a big deal. But now see, now

358
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:27,440

359
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: over here, this way right, it's not this way out

360
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: this way? Is it all right? Okay? It was Here's

361
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: the thing. I listen, it's the league is expanding so much,

362
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: and you got to tip your hat to Terry and

363
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: Kim Pagoula, because it is they're staying in front of it.

364
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: They're staying out front. And one of the things that happens.

365
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: And it's a little it's still this way. It's evolving

366
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: away from but it's still this way. Free agents, all

367
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 1: the players, you want to come, new rookies, draft picks, fans,

368
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: and it's good for the city as well as good

369
00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: for the for the reputation of the city as well.

370
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: When you come out to your NFL team or your

371
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: franchise and they've got state of the art stuff, it

372
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: envelops the whole city. I heard the instigators today when

373
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 1: Paul Hamilton was talking about, you know, the the draft.

374
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: Having the Draft here in Buffalo this last April was

375
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: huge for the people around the NHL to come into

376
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: Buffalo when it wasn't hockey season, when it wasn't gray

377
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 1: and cold like it is outside. People don't know what

378
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: all of us know about Buffalo, and when they come

379
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: in at this time of year, obviously they see things.

380
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 1: And I make this comment all the time. I make

381
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 1: fun of Buffalo all the time when I'm out away

382
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: from Buffalo and other cities and stuff because I like

383
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 1: our town the way it is. If everybody knew what

384
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: we know about Buffalo, there'd be three million people living

385
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: here and it would stink. I like it the way

386
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 1: it is, so, you know, but it is nice when

387
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: you have an ownership group or whatever, when they're expanding

388
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 1: the facilities that you're at. All this stuff like Harbor Harbor,

389
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: Harborside and river Works and all the stuff that's going

390
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: on in town. This is part of that. This facility

391
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 1: out here at New air of Field, it's pretty cool.

392
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 1: And for our industry, um, it's important to keep up

393
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: with all of that. Well, it's it'll be a recruiting thing, right,

394
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 1: it's exactly what you're bringing in, even draft picks or

395
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 1: somebody say, hey, check it out. This is where you

396
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,119
Speaker 1: work out, this is where you take naps, this is

397
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 1: where you get the treatment. This is there's gonna be

398
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: a Yosa studio. And for those of you don't know,

399
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: I mean they feed, they feed the whole building and

400
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: they feed the players. They've got a nutritionists. They it's

401
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: all fresh food and they make it exactly everything and

402
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: they treat every these guys right. And now with this

403
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 1: they're gonna bring more people on and you know these

404
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: guys that go out and around the league, and you've

405
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 1: heard it, like all the guys like the JJ Wats

406
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,119
Speaker 1: and the Tom Brady and all the superstars have the

407
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: guys they hire to keep them in shape and they

408
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 1: pay them and they're an exclusive client. Not everybody wants

409
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 1: to do that or can do that. Now they're gonna

410
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: have people on staff here who can do that for players.

411
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: Player doesn't have to be actually here and physically, but

412
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 1: in aar they can get this this one on one

413
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,159
Speaker 1: stuff and these guys can remain razor sharp further and

414
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: further around the calendar. It's it's just the way that

415
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: the game's evolving, and the Bills, obviously with this addition,

416
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 1: are going to stay at the cutting edge of it.

417
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,200

453
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: what he needs to do, and I'm looking forward to that.

454
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,880
Speaker 1: I just want to see more from Josh Allen tonight.

455
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: That would be number one on my list. Number two

456
00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: on my list. I'm intrigued by Brandon Riley and apparently

457
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 1: he's got the interest of the coaching staff as well,

458
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,959
Speaker 1: getting reps with the ones a couple of times over

459
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 1: the last few days in Rochester lining up in the

460
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 1: slot as the number one slot guy with the first team.

461
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: I'm intrigued by Brandon Riley and what he might be

462
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: accomplished me here in this training camp similar to what

463
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: he did a year ago. So that's number two on three. Defensively,

464
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 1: I hope we get a chance to see Trent Murphy

465
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 1: because he's one of my favorite players to watch. But

466
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: if we can't, we'll see more from Shack Lawson. And

467
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 1: obviously I'm interested in what Shack Lawson is doing and

468
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: how he's coming along. Those would be my top three

469
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,199
Speaker 1: things to watch tonight. What about you, Yeah, I bet

470
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 1: your Trent Murphy's gonna practice. He's had a couple of

471
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: days off, they'd given him two practices, and he'll probably

472
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: focusing on getting him into the lineup tonight. But my

473
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 1: three things would be and I'm more of a big

474
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: picture guy than I am looking at specific guys like

475
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,399
Speaker 1: you or I'm going although I am looking at quarterbacks,

476
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: number one, number two, wide receivers. I want to see

477
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,160
Speaker 1: how they're rotating, who's playing, who does well. And number

478
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,479
Speaker 1: three is a big picture of the defense. I think

479
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,399
Speaker 1: this defense is going to carry this football team this year.

480
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be the strength of the team.

481
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: They're gonna be as good, They're gonna be a conversation

482
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 1: with a defense that it's playmaking, can get pressure and

483
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 1: gets turnovers. Their secondary is as good as any across

484
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 1: the board and as any in the league. Their front

485
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 1: seven has been refurbished Tremaine Edmonds in the middle. I

486
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 1: think I'm not predicting it for his first year, but

487
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, early in his career, he's gonna

488
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 1: be something special. People are gonna sit up and say, Wow,

489
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 1: who is that guy? So I think the defense is

490
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: what I'm looking at. Third seconds, the wide receivers, and first,

491
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: of course is the quarterbacks. And those are my three things.

492
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: Let's hear from you. The lines are open eight o

493
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,639
Speaker 1: three five fifty and toll free one eight eight eight

494
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 1: five fifty two five fifty one. Are the top three

495
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: things you'd be looking for tonight at tonight's practice or

496
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: anything you'd like to talk about regarding the bills are

497
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 1: The NFL got a call on the line from Ken

498
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 1: in his car. Ken, go ahead, you're on the air.

499
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 1: What's up, Good afternoon, gentlemen. Hi, go ahead real quick

500
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: on my three things. Obviously kind of what he just renorated, Uh,

501
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 1: Josh Allen. Of course, I want to see really excited

502
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: to come and see him throw the balls to night

503
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: and see how we always coming along. Situation. Calvin Benjamin

504
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: to me is as good as probably anybody in the

505
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: league that I kind of want to see who he's

506
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: gonna step up, and then the offensive line. The offensive

507
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 1: line to me is a big question. But the comment

508
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 1: I wanted to make is that I want you guys

509
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,399
Speaker 1: to tell me what you think watching that game last night.

510
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: A couple of those helmet the helmet calls, the one

511
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: right there at the beginning of the game. I'm afraid this,

512
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 1: this rule is going to ruin the game as we

513
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: know it. And I mean, I totally get protecting the head,

514
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: but it's also a contact sport and there's going to

515
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 1: be some some light helmet contact like that first play

516
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 1: there last night. Yea. Also, I'd like to know what

517
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: you guys think again, and why is there never a

518
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 1: discussion on maybe making a better helmet. That seems like

519
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 1: that's never brought up. It's brought up a lot here,

520
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: you guys here, here, you guys, well, I know I

521
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,040
Speaker 1: haven't seen anything about any new helmet development, So you

522
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 1: can enlighten me. I would appreciate that play. Yeah, you guys,

523
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,360
Speaker 1: have a good day. Thank thanks. Ken. That's good, that's great.

524
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 1: Those are great calls. Josh Allen, Kelvin, Benjamin and the

525
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: offensive line were the things he's looking at and also

526
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,439
Speaker 1: the helmet called a soft helmet called the first one

527
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: of the game last night, first one of the preseason.

528
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,440
Speaker 1: I mean there you saw it, and a lot of

529
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 1: people did think that was a soft call. But here's

530
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: the thing, don't and and here's what I you're right, ken,

531
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 1: The fear is it's gonna the game's gonna you know,

532
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: it's gonna change the game. It's gonna ruin it. It's

533
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: gonna do Listen, the NFL will not allow it to

534
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: ruin their game. They will not allow that to ruin

535
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 1: their game. And the and MSG people are watching right now.

536
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: And as you saw the Ravens number forty eight come

537
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 1: in late and he kind of turned his head, but

538
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: it was helmet to helmet, and it was if you're

539
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: gonna call that, call it. But as long as they

540
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 1: call that all the time, the players will adjust to it.

541
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 1: But don't think that one rule is going to ruin

542
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: the game. First of all, it'll take more than that

543
00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 1: to do that to ruin the game. And second of all,

544
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 1: the league won't allow it. They won't let their game

545
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: be ruined by that. And two for another thing, you

546
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 1: call it, they'll probably get better helmets. They are working

547
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:14,360
Speaker 1: on it. There's there's literally there's fifty companies that make

548
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: football helmets. This year is the first year where the

549
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: NFL Players Association and the league came together and throughout

550
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: the bottom ten or fifteen helmet companies and said they

551
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 1: do not make a product that we will allow our

552
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 1: players to make. And they and they've started to weed

553
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 1: out helmets that are not up to their standards. And

554
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 1: there's always new technology coming out. So they are working

555
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 1: on the both on the equipment end of the head question,

556
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 1: of the head injury question, and on the rules and

557
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 1: the rules and application of those rules at that point

558
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 1: of the game as well. So there's a lot going

559
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 1: on here. But don't be afraid, all you. And there's

560
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 1: gonna be calls. Listen, we've all lived through the NFL

561
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 1: for a lot of years. There's gonna be calls all

562
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: over the board that we don't like. But don't be

563
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 1: thinking that. And he may not like a couple of

564
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: these helmet calls like the one last night, but believe me,

565
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: they're not gonna let it ruin the game. A couple

566
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: of things that was Bennett Jackson, the Raven safety who

567
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: was flagged for the hit that really early on in

568
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: that game, and he was quoted as saying he said

569
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,640
Speaker 1: his tackle was perfect. He said, I feel like they're

570
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: trying to harp on it more in preseason. They're gonna

571
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: throw flags even on times when it's not necessarily head

572
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: to head. And our man Lorenzo Alexander on Goldikin Wingo

573
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 1: on ESPN today, his quote was, I think the NFL

574
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,159
Speaker 1: is probably going to end up walking this back a

575
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:35,959
Speaker 1: little bit by the end of the season. I think

576
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,479
Speaker 1: Lorenzo is right, they're gonna walk it back, I think

577
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 1: in the next couple of weeks a little bit. But

578
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: the issue with that Bennet Jackson hit Steve early in

579
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,119
Speaker 1: yesterday's game was that it's exactly the scenario that you

580
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 1: pointed out when we were talking with Sean Smith, the

581
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: referee last night. Second second guy in YEA and the

582
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 1: clean up the clean up guy. There's really I mean,

583
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 1: there's no need for there's no need for him to

584
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 1: go in there and leave with his helmet. There's really

585
00:26:58,359 --> 00:26:59,919
Speaker 1: very little need for him to go in there at all.

586
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 1: I guess he wants to ensure that the guy with

587
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,439
Speaker 1: the ball goes down, but to go in and hit

588
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 1: with your helmet. You gotta call that play. That's and

589
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: you know that that right there, or if I think

590
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 1: is the thing that if they could do away with it,

591
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 1: that's a lot of that's a lot of stuff that

592
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 1: would clean up a lot of it. That would really

593
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 1: clean up a lot of it. That right there, And

594
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: you're right, and and Ken the caller last night, I've

595
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: heard a lot about it and that, and I gotta

596
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: be honest with you because you know you're doing stuff.

597
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 1: I didn't see that replay when I was watching the

598
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: game last night. They never showed that replay of that call.

599
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:30,920
Speaker 1: So that's the first I saw. It was just a

600
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: minute ago. And the replay from the reverse angle where

601
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 1: his helmet did hit the receiver's helmet. Okay, I get that,

602
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,879
Speaker 1: But the second guy, in the fact that he ever

603
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 1: even had to come in there and clean up on

604
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 1: that tackle at all, was I think the real issue.

605
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 1: And if they can get that out of the game, man,

606
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: that's that's goes a long way towards a lot of

607
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,399
Speaker 1: the safety issues. And believe part and Sean Smith, he

608
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 1: didn't have to admit it. He said it to us yesterday.

609
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 1: The NFL reff Yeah, they're gonna call it heavy and

610
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 1: pre season to get players into the habit of avoiding

611
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,400
Speaker 1: that hit. And like Lorenzo said, they're gonna back off, Well,

612
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: they probably will because and they will have fewer opportunities

613
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 1: to call helmet hits because I believe players are good

614
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,159
Speaker 1: enough and smart enough to avoid that. Like what, that's illegal,

615
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 1: that's fifteen yards, that's a possible dejection. I'm not going

616
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: to do that next time, That's right. And here's the thing,

617
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 1: And I remember playing when you got a guy, when

618
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: they've got a guy he's not down. That's all you

619
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 1: were trying to do is go in there and add

620
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 1: punishment onto that tackle, make the guy get up and

621
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 1: have to take a break. You know, that's that's the

622
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 1: only focus that you had, because you know he was

623
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,200
Speaker 1: not going anywhere. He had two guys on him, and

624
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 1: it was just a free shot that you take. And

625
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 1: everybody doesn't even it's just it's just something that you

626
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: do in the aggressive nature of the game, and it

627
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: doesn't have to be there. You could you could train

628
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 1: that out. I think it may not be easy, may

629
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: take a little time, but I think there's no question

630
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 1: that that could come out of the game and not

631
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: too many people would notice it. All right, we're gonna

632
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: talk about helmet hits. That's part of our agenda today.

633
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about quarterback. We got Fred Smyles's coming

634
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: on the show later today. We got Brandon being the

635
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: general manager and coming up next, former NFL quarterback Chad Pennington,

636
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: eleven years in the NFL, most of it with the Jets.

637
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 1: We'll talk with him about his relationship with Josh Allen,

638
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: what he sees from Josh Allen, and what he sees

639
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: going on around the league. Chad Pennington, former NFL quarterback,

640
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,160

00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: waiting here from Chad Pennington, hope to get him on

651
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 1: the air. Our Twitter poll not really a poll, but

652
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: a question on Twitter, what are the three things? Give

653
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: us three things you're looking for from tonight's Bill's practice

654
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: if you're coming here or even if you're not, what

655
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: would you like to see at training camp tonight? What

656
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: are the three things you were you might be looking

657
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: for tonight? We got some response on Twitter, but before

658
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 1: we get to the responses to our question, interesting Twitter

659
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 1: exchange going on Steve Postman Pilot. Postman Pilot says the

660
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 1: real battle is not at quarterback, it's among us listeners.

661
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 1: I feel Murphy is yet to deem me worthy despite

662
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 1: the tons of quality tweets red on air. But I'm

663
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: out for the title of the top tweet chet contributor

664
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 1: watch out Wandering Jack and Tiffany Daniels. It's kind of funny.

665
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: It's funny because Twitter, you know, is usually contentious and

666
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 1: almost worthless sometimes. But I think he's got the right attitude.

667
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: But what I really like, let me see if I

668
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 1: can find it, um is. They go on to say,

669
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 1: oh yeah, and now it's it's it's kind of a

670
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: bat the lids off. Now, yeah, now it goes. Now

671
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 1: he goes to you, Steve Tasks, Steve Tasker, like to

672
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 1: thank you for almost always pronouncing my last almost always

673
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,479
Speaker 1: pronouncing my last name correctly. It amazes me. Pronounced pilot

674
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 1: but spelled with an A. The amount of people to

675
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: get it wrong is insane. Well, then he goes, after

676
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 1: he goes, they're going back and forth, right and uh,

677
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 1: Tiffany Daniels, right, yeah, yeah, two people who Yeah, Tiffany Daniels,

678
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 1: wandering Jack, Postman pilot. We get. You know, we have

679
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: a handful of loyal I'll just call him loyal listeners

680
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: who always kind of chime in, and that's it's we

681
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 1: love it. It's great. But those the three that names

682
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: you mentioned are really the best tweeters we get in

683
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: a regular basis. They're always thoughtful tweets. Yeah, which you

684
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: can't say. They're mature and they take it seriously and

685
00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: that's why they're tweets get on the air mostly. Yeah,

686
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 1: I got nothing against a Postman pilot. No, yeah, I

687
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 1: don't either. I mean, it's fine, Well, he loved you

688
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 1: because you pronounce his name correctly. And well, there's something

689
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 1: to be said for that. You should, you should strive for.

690
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: I do not how to pronounce I did not know

691
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: how to pronounce pi. He doesn't yet. It's it's not

692
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 1: written phonetically. Now here's his tweet and answered he when

693
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: he finally gets out the fact that he's a fan

694
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: of yours, could you pronounce his name? He does? He

695
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 1: does respond postman pilot to our Twitter question, what's you

696
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 1: looking for tonight? Number three? Stand out play from what's

697
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 1: thought to be the weakest position units. That's fair. Number

698
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: two with noticeable camaraderie between players and coaches. Number one

699
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 1: effort driving heart, miles and miles of heart. Specific players

700
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 1: include Riley, Clay Milano, and Murphy Um. Well, listen, if

701
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: you're going to cover all the bases like that, you know,

702
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: come on, man, you gotta narrow it down. But he's right,

703
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: from what are the weakest position units, I'm thinking he's

704
00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: thinking of offensive line, wide receiver, linebacker. And the camaraderie

705
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 1: and effort between players and coaches. You know, I'll tell

706
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 1: you what. There's been some people who have noticed it.

707
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 1: Um I was sitting standing around with Pat Kerwin from

708
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 1: UH from moving the chains on a serious XM. And

709
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 1: he was at camp with us, and he was on

710
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 1: our show last week or is it that this week? Yea,

711
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: And he noticed it. And one of the things about

712
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 1: it is, you know some people they preach it and

713
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 1: they do it, and you can see, but on both

714
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 1: sides of the ball, all the guys, you know, and

715
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 1: it was they really were running to each other after

716
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 1: a good play. The team that made the side of

717
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 1: the ball that made the good play would congregate with

718
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: right and and they were into it. They did it.

719
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 1: It was a it was a routine thing. You're gonna

720
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 1: see that probably tonight. Um as far as effort, driving

721
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 1: miles and miles of hard, I don't know. Um, you

722
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,719
Speaker 1: know it's it's a practice. So you're not gonna get

723
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: these guys. You know, they're not gonna have to dig deep. Yeah,

724
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: you know for a practice. But right, Riley, Clay, Milano, Murphy, Yeah,

725
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: all those guys are gonna be on the radar tonight.

726
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,360
Speaker 1: I'd liked I want to see Trent Murphy. I'd like

727
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 1: to see this. I take it for granted. And maybe

728
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 1: it is or maybe it isn't. Is this going to

729
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 1: be a padded practice? Tonight and I'm gonna I want

730
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 1: to see him pass rush again. He because you and

731
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: I watched him Murph on the day one when they

732
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:12,920
Speaker 1: had the pads on they were gonna go at it.

733
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 1: You and I were looking at each other when Wow,

734
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 1: he's He's really good. He is a good pass rusher

735
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 1: and that's what the Bills signed him for. That's why

736
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 1: he's running with the ones and Shack Lawson isn't. And

737
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,360
Speaker 1: that's why that's why there's a lot of optimism for

738
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:33,760
Speaker 1: this defense. Him and the presence of Starlotu Lelee down inside.

739
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:37,800
Speaker 1: A tweet from Tiffany Daniels, one of our loyal tweeters

740
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 1: tweet Twitter followers, Tiffany Daniels says, first thing she'll be

741
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 1: looking for would be who the starting five offensive linemen are,

742
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 1: and then which quarterback climbs up for first team reps,

743
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,919
Speaker 1: and finally who stands out in the wide receiver group.

744
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: I think they need to build chemistry where the offensive

745
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,880
Speaker 1: line let them develop through the rest of camp. Good points, Tiffany.

746
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the offensive line for a second. You

747
00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:59,359
Speaker 1: want to see with the five hour I can tell

748
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,280
Speaker 1: you the last few it's been Dion Dawkins at left tackle,

749
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: John Blad Ducoss at left guard, Ryan Groy at center,

750
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,320
Speaker 1: John Miller at right guard, Jordan Mills at right tackle.

751
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 1: I think Jordan got yesterday off, maybe veteran day off yesterday.

752
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:14,800
Speaker 1: Presuming they're all healthy, that would be the five. I

753
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 1: would think it seems like campus setting into that. Dawkins

754
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: at left tackle, Ducos at left guard. Groy the last

755
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 1: couple of practice has take practices has taken most of,

756
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 1: not all of the first team reps. John Miller is

757
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 1: now at right guard, and Jordan Mills is your right tackle.

758
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: And I agree with you, Tiffany Daniels. You need they

759
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 1: need some cohesion. They need as much work together as

760
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 1: they can get. That looks like that's the group now.

761
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 1: Other people to watch in the offensive line group, Steve

762
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 1: include Russell Bodine, the free agent signing keep an eye.

763
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 1: I don't know if we talked about this. Connor McDermott

764
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 1: is a guy to watch. They had him working at

765
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 1: left tackle. He was a waiver pick up a couple

766
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 1: of yor last year from the New England Patriots and

767
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 1: spent most of the last year on or around the roster.

768
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,919
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm gonna sneeze. Thank you go bless

769
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,919
Speaker 1: one more bless Kna McDermott. Because of his size six eight,

770
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: he's enormous. He's enormous. You can't miss him. He's number

771
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 1: sixty eight. Yeah, this is a guy who might have

772
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,320
Speaker 1: something to say as far as the swing tackle on

773
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 1: this roster, left tackle, right tackle. The fact that they've

774
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: got him working at left tackle, I think indicates that

775
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,319
Speaker 1: they think very highly of him. Another guy to watch

776
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 1: one more and I'll let you get in here is

777
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,760
Speaker 1: a street free agent they picked up last year, Adam Redman,

778
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 1: who got particular mentioned from Sean McDermot the other day

779
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: as doing good work at center. He's a backup center

780
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,800
Speaker 1: and running with the twos and threes. There's potential that

781
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 1: Redman is a guy who could bump off somebody from

782
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 1: the roster, for instance Groy or Russell Bodine, and depending

783
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: on how he who knows, you don't know who's going

784
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:43,760
Speaker 1: to be. Here's the thing about the three guys at center.

785
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 1: Redman is a little bit like Russell Bodine. They're both

786
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: kind of technicians. They and whatever play they bring to

787
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 1: the field. The difference between them and a guy like

788
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 1: Groy is. Groy's been a backup, but he's a bigger

789
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: physical specimen. If you're gonna go for this, you know,

790
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 1: huge offensive line and bring in guys like uh, like

791
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 1: Connor McDermott who's six eight, and leave those guys in

792
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 1: there like Dion Dawkins and go enormous on the front

793
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 1: line and startling road plow road grading people. You need

794
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 1: guys like Groy, You need guys like Connor McDermott. You

795
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 1: need guys like Ducas and these that bring that big

796
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,560
Speaker 1: body in there. Um, if you're gonna be a technician,

797
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: if you're gonna be one of those zone read things,

798
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: you need more athletes up there so you can move

799
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 1: latterly and get up to the second level that kind

800
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,840
Speaker 1: of stuff. So it's it'll be it'll be interesting to

801
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 1: see which of those guys comes through. But you're right,

802
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,800
Speaker 1: Adam Redman, the kid from Harvard who they brought in

803
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,239
Speaker 1: last year, God did get special mission from mentioned from

804
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott. Russell Bodine is a quality, proven center in

805
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 1: the in the NFL. A lot of people criticize his

806
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 1: play last year UM in Cincinnati because they think feel

807
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 1: like and probably did he had his worst year as

808
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,799
Speaker 1: a as a center in the NFL, he started every

809
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 1: game for four years. Last year was his worst year.

810
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 1: Here's why. The Cincinnati Bengals lost two starters in the

811
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,960
Speaker 1: offensive line last year and Bodine was stuck in there

812
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,279
Speaker 1: trying to cover for two guys who weren't playing as

813
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: well as he had. So he was doing a little

814
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 1: bit more and asked to do cover for some guys

815
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 1: who were not up to this level that they had

816
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 1: been before, and Bodine was kind of in a spot

817
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 1: where he was trying to make up for that. So

818
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 1: the whole offensive line of Cincinnati did not perform last

819
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: year because they lost two quality starters who played next

820
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 1: to Bodine at center and now, and therefore his play

821
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 1: suffered because of it. That's if you watched a certain guy,

822
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,799
Speaker 1: if you talk to people who you know, look into

823
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: that kind of thing. That's one of the reasons why

824
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: Bodine was available. So it is interesting that offensive line

825
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 1: is there's a lot of questions. They've been a lot.

826
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 1: They've been criticized roundly around the NFL for having a

827
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,439
Speaker 1: bad offensive line because they traded Cordy Glenn, because Richie

828
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,320
Speaker 1: Incognito is not here, and because Eric Wood retired and

829
00:38:58,360 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 1: we've set up off and on, we've been in the

830
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,839
Speaker 1: midst of it. The reason the only guy that really

831
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: surprised them was Eric Wood. He's the only one who

832
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 1: they said. I don't think they I think they were

833
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: counting on an Incognito too. You're not so sure. I

834
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 1: think they were counting him playing this year. I don't

835
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: know about next year. I'm not so sure Richie was

836
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 1: gonna be a plug in and play left guard for

837
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:26,360
Speaker 1: the Bills this year. Maybe he was Brandon Bean. We

838
00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 1: asked him that question. He said, no, we thought he

839
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: was coming back. Yeah, they did. That doesn't mean they

840
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:35,239
Speaker 1: thought they weren't gonna upgrade, backing upgrade. I think if

841
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,359
Speaker 1: he had not And this just me. I listen, you're

842
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 1: right now, this is just me. I mean, I didn't

843
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,399
Speaker 1: I don't know anything round. I'm just saying, I don't

844
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:48,320
Speaker 1: know that Richie Incognito was gonna be their guy. I

845
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,320
Speaker 1: think this year he was at least to start the

846
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 1: season anyway. Tiffany Daniels made good points, and the best

847
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:56,320
Speaker 1: point is, uh, um, they need to build chemistry with

848
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 1: the offensive line. And if that's the five. The five

849
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,239
Speaker 1: we talked about Pkins at left tackle, docsst left guard,

850
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: Gray at center, Miller at right guard, and uh Jordan

851
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,919
Speaker 1: Mills at right tackle. Go with it. I mean we're

852
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: six days away from the first preseason game. Yeah, build

853
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 1: that chemistry, start right now. Look for that group. The

854
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 1: thing I love about if those the guys that are

855
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:15,759
Speaker 1: behind him. I you know, those guys behind him, I

856
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 1: think can they go all play? You know, I think

857
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,400
Speaker 1: they can all play. Bodine and Oak can play. Redmond

858
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 1: is proving that he can play. M Wyatt Teller has

859
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 1: played well when he's gotten in there. He's he's got

860
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:32,280
Speaker 1: some real physical gifts. Um, so they've got they're getting

861
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 1: a lot of work from DeAndre Wesley to a guy

862
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 1: they picked up last year and a new House. I

863
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:40,840
Speaker 1: mean they got they got some guys. Um, it'll be

864
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 1: interesting to see where that where that lands. But certainly

865
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 1: they've got enough bodies to choose from Marshall, Newhouse has

866
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 1: played very well, Genert the beer um, the big kid

867
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:56,800
Speaker 1: from Arizona. I mean, they they're big upfront. Yeah, chemistry

868
00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 1: shouldn't Maybe it starts tonight. We'll talk more about this.

869
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 1: What are you looking for? We got a call on

870
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,839
Speaker 1: the line about Khalil Mack. We'll pick up that call

907
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 1: went to school at ub and ended up being a

908
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,800
Speaker 1: top pick in the NFL draft and has been a

909
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:12,319
Speaker 1: phenomenal player for them, And he's a guy that all

910
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 1: of us here in Buffalo would like to picture him

911
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,120
Speaker 1: liking to come back and playing Buffalo. He would love

912
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:19,719
Speaker 1: to come back. He's one of the few players you

913
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: know out in the National Football League that knows Buffalo's character.

914
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: He would like to play here. I don't I'm saying

915
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 1: that we think that. I don't know. I haven't spoken

916
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 1: to him, but I gotta think I'm with you. He would.

917
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,080
Speaker 1: He wouldn't have a problem playing for the Buffalo Bills.

918
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: And from what we've heard, and I don't know whether

919
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,800
Speaker 1: it's the media talking like this, Jay, or it's just

920
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 1: us wishing that they would, it seems a little acrimonious

921
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:48,040
Speaker 1: between him and Jay Gruden. He they haven't spoken Jay

922
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 1: Gruden Jay Gruden yet. John Gruden has said that, hey, listen,

923
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 1: the defense played stinky with him on the field last year.

924
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 1: What do we need him for? Why do we want

925
00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,200
Speaker 1: to pay him a new contract when you know the

926
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:04,000
Speaker 1: defense isn't that good. So I'm pretty sure you know

927
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,560
Speaker 1: Khalil Mack has no love loss for John Gruden right

928
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: about now. So and and if he doesn't want him,

929
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:10,880
Speaker 1: if he's sitting there saying to listen, I'm playing for

930
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:16,840
Speaker 1: the guy. Hey, we'll take him absolutely right, Okay, So

931
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 1: who's the thing right Here's look, I don't think I

932
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 1: don't think Mac is gonna play anywhere but Oakland this year, right,

933
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 1: But next year is what we're talking about. And next

934
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:29,960
Speaker 1: year the Bills have money. They have lots of money space,

935
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 1: so feceiverspect everybody could use a Khalil Matt. That's the pray.

936
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,360
Speaker 1: It's US and thirty other teams. Um, you know, So

937
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 1: you're right, But I'm I am on board with that,

938
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 1: and so are I think a lot of Bills fans.

939
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,800
Speaker 1: Problem is, so are a lot of Patriot fans, Jet fans,

940
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:54,440
Speaker 1: Dolphin fans, Texan fans. You get down the list, everybody

941
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 1: wants Kalil mack. Uh. What are you willing to do

942
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:04,279
Speaker 1: to get him? Um, you're talking multiple ones, you know,

943
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,839
Speaker 1: you're talking a lot of assets. You're talking like they're

944
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 1: gonna treat him. They want for him what most people

945
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 1: would ask for a quarterback. And I don't know if

946
00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:13,640
Speaker 1: the Bills are ready to go down that road yet,

947
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 1: but certainly the Bills got the money to pay him

948
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:19,160
Speaker 1: next year, that's for sure. Thanks for your call. We're

00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:00,680
Speaker 1: and we're gonna look. I find it interesting I saw

1000
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,800
Speaker 1: this post on ESPM. Some of the guys who have

1001
00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,719
Speaker 1: recently left the league or are currently playing, and are

1002
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:09,239

1003

Speaker 1: on Twitter at one Bill's Live. What are you looking

1009
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:28,439
Speaker 1: for tonight? When you watch the Bill's practice phone calls

1010
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:30,880
Speaker 1: Ken and cheek Towaga. Hello, Ken, go ahead, you're on

1011
00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:34,000
Speaker 1: the air with us. How you doing. What's keeping John

1012
00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 1: Miller off the field? Nothing? Probably probably numbers, but I

1013
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:39,799
Speaker 1: think he's on the field with the ones most he's

1014
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,279
Speaker 1: a starter. What do you mean what's keeping him off

1015
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 1: the field? He's on. I'm embarrassed, don't be embarrassed. No,

1016
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:48,439
Speaker 1: it's I think and we got to get John Miller

1017
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:49,799
Speaker 1: on the show. He's a good guy. We had him

1018
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:51,680
Speaker 1: on a couple of years ago when he was playing.

1019
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 1: He was kept off the field last year and now

1020
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,239
Speaker 1: he's back. He's done a lot of work in the

1021
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:59,120
Speaker 1: offseason to get his body right. Chris Brown detailed it

1022
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,760
Speaker 1: and a good post don Buffalo Bills dot Com working

1023
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 1: with a great Pete Bamrito down in Miami and his

1024
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:07,120
Speaker 1: offseason conditioning program. But he's a starter. He's the Bill

1025
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,200
Speaker 1: starter right now at right guard. Yeah, good, all right,

1026
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 1: thank you, match glad we could help out. Let's go

1027
00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 1: to Mike and Amherstlo Mike, welcome you around the air. Hey,

1028
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:21,520
Speaker 1: how you doing? Okay? Great good? Who's gonna be our

1029
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:25,759
Speaker 1: top five receivers? There? That's five receivers? Top five Okay,

1030
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:31,919
Speaker 1: let's start with Benjamin Yep one, Curly two, Zay Jones

1031
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,359
Speaker 1: if he's healthy. Well, yeah, day Jones is a big

1032
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:37,800
Speaker 1: question mark. Maybe Brandon Riley may be a good guess

1033
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 1: for the fifth. How's that Jeremy Curly, Steve, Yeah, he's

1034
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 1: number two. Uh so we're looking for the fifth. You

1035
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:49,279
Speaker 1: asked for the fifth here. I think I think it's

1036
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,879
Speaker 1: gonna be Rob Street. I think Rob Streeter is gonna

1037
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:54,200
Speaker 1: be in there. Um, I think there's just two. I

1038
00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:56,919
Speaker 1: think you're gonna have Foster as a candidate, Steve. They'll

1039
00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:59,800
Speaker 1: probably have seven of them on the roster and the

1040
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:04,799
Speaker 1: fifty three. Don't know Ray Ray's got I think he's

1041
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 1: got a you know, people in front of him right now.

1042
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,840
Speaker 1: It's hard to catch up. Man. You got Austin Pearl, Ray,

1043
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 1: Ray McLoud. Kaylin Clay has been playing extremely well, of course,

1044
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 1: Kelvin Benjamin's Jones. Robert Foster is making a splash in

1045
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 1: training camp. Although Robert Foster to me is a guy,

1046
00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,719
Speaker 1: and you always worry about this at these positions. At

1047
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:24,440
Speaker 1: the end of training camp, they're gonna cut some of

1048
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,480
Speaker 1: these guys that they don't want to cut and bring

1049
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:30,680
Speaker 1: him back as as practice squad guys. I think Robert

1050
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 1: Foster has that written all over him, depending on how

1051
00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 1: the rest of those guys play. I even think Robert

1052
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:37,920
Speaker 1: Foster at this point would be a coin flip to

1053
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:40,360
Speaker 1: even be in the top five receivers, depending on what

1054
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:42,160
Speaker 1: he can do on special teams. You know who we

1055
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:45,360
Speaker 1: never talk about except when we're talking about practice highlights.

1056
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 1: Cam Phillips, rookie, undrafted rookie from Virginia Tech. It seems

1057
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:53,480
Speaker 1: like every day Cam Phillips is making play. Steve I

1058
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:57,359
Speaker 1: think he's he's kind of making a move. He had

1059
00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: a great collegiate career, first team All ACC seventy one

1060
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 1: catches in his senior year last year, And every day

1061
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:07,319
Speaker 1: there will come a play, and I'll confess a week

1062
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 1: into training camp, I'll have to look at my roster

1063
00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:12,040
Speaker 1: nice catch, who's number five? Oh, it's Cam Phillips. Every

1064
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 1: day he makes a play and many of them are

1065
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 1: big plays. It's the name to watch, a guy to

1066
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:20,160
Speaker 1: watch I think I think he I think Cam Phillips

1067
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:22,799
Speaker 1: has had some really strong moments in training camp so far,

1068
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:25,680
Speaker 1: but again, an uphill climb for him. It's a lot

1069
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:28,080
Speaker 1: of number number four and five. Yeah, it really is.

1070
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:30,400
Speaker 1: It really is. Hey, we got a guest on the

1071
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,080
Speaker 1: line and we're happy to have him. He is a

1072
00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 1: longtime NFL quarterback for the Jets and the Miami Dolphins,

1073
00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:38,719
Speaker 1: two time NFL Comeback Player of the Year and MAC

1074
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,520
Speaker 1: Offensive Player of the Year back in nineteen ninety nine

1075
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,799
Speaker 1: for the Thundering Herd of Marshall. Happy to have Chad

1076
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:46,759
Speaker 1: Pennington on the line with his chat as John Murphy

1077
00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:49,080
Speaker 1: and Steve Tasker here in Buffalo. Thank you very much

1078
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,880
Speaker 1: for joining us. Thank you guys for having me. We

1079
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 1: got you on to talk about Buffalo's quarterback Josh Allen,

1080
00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:56,680
Speaker 1: a guy that you spent some time with. I believe

1081
00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,680
Speaker 1: going back to the Senior Bowl, right like last February

1082
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:01,800
Speaker 1: down Mobile, Is that where you first made contact with

1083
00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:05,160
Speaker 1: Josh Allen? I did. I had attempt to speak with

1084
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,000
Speaker 1: him there at the Senior Bowl. He also is represented

1085
00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:10,920
Speaker 1: by CIA and Tom Connon, who I worked with for

1086
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 1: eleven years, and so I got a little familiarity with him.

1087
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 1: I know he's a really good kid, and you know

1088
00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:20,720
Speaker 1: the upside physically is off the charts, and really excited

1089
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,160
Speaker 1: to watch him develop and grow. Well, can you give us,

1090
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:26,319
Speaker 1: Chad thanks for coming on. Can you give us maybe

1091
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:29,680
Speaker 1: your your pros and cons? Give us the most extreme

1092
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,239
Speaker 1: goods about Josh Allen and give us some of the

1093
00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:34,560
Speaker 1: stuff that you're worried about maybe going forward with him.

1094
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:36,879
Speaker 1: And we've heard all the we've heard to hold all

1095
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:38,759
Speaker 1: of these things leading up to the draft. What's your

1096
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:41,560
Speaker 1: take on what's the big plus and maybe the big

1097
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:46,400
Speaker 1: minus for him? Well, you never can teach size and

1098
00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:50,320
Speaker 1: strength and physicality. You know, that's not taught, that's God given.

1099
00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:54,080
Speaker 1: And he has that and he has all those tangible

1100
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 1: aspects that you definitely want in a post style quarterback.

1101
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:03,080
Speaker 1: And he's also very athletic, which really makes him dynamic physically,

1102
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 1: and I think you know, mentally, it seems like he

1103
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,879
Speaker 1: really grasps the game. He wants to learn more, which

1104
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:12,880
Speaker 1: that's always a positive. You've got to have guys in

1105
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,840
Speaker 1: your room spacially, that quarterback room that love football and

1106
00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:18,400
Speaker 1: they want to be about football. It just can't be

1107
00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:20,880
Speaker 1: a hobby. For them if they're going to be successful

1108
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 1: in that quarterback room, and so that's important. I think,

1109
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:25,759
Speaker 1: you know, two of his biggest challenges, especially with a

1110
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:29,880
Speaker 1: big arm quarterback. Number one will be to learn how

1111
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,880
Speaker 1: to be a passer and not a thrower. In this league,

1112
00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 1: sometimes there's not windows that are open, but there's pockets

1113
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:38,080
Speaker 1: behind those linebackers and safeties that you can get the

1114
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,800
Speaker 1: ball up and down in. And that's a talent and

1115
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:43,760
Speaker 1: a skill that you have to develop. And so sometimes

1116
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 1: your big arm guys are so used to just find

1117
00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:48,080
Speaker 1: that ball in there one hundred miles an hour. It

1118
00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:49,880
Speaker 1: takes the arc off of the ball, and you've got

1119
00:53:49,960 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 1: to have arc in this game to be able to

1120
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:53,879
Speaker 1: get up and down over defenders and back down before

1121
00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:56,720
Speaker 1: the safety get to the top. Up be the physical challenge,

1122
00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:58,959
Speaker 1: and I think mentally, you know, people have talked about

1123
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:01,840
Speaker 1: his completion percentage, but really a lot of times complete

1124
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:06,080
Speaker 1: percentage sometimes not indicative of actcy. For safe physically got

1125
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,439
Speaker 1: to take a look at his decision making and making

1126
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:11,360
Speaker 1: sure that he's making good, solid decisions keeping the chains moving.

1127
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,359
Speaker 1: For some reason, in our game, we've tried to term

1128
00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 1: a game manager as a bad thing. But that's exactly

1129
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,080
Speaker 1: what a quarterback has to be as a game manager

1130
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:22,240
Speaker 1: and have situational awareness. You know, we're with Chad Pennington,

1131
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:24,239
Speaker 1: by the way, former Jets first round draft pick who

1132
00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:27,160
Speaker 1: has worked with and mentored Bill's quarterback Josh Allen a

1133
00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:30,760
Speaker 1: little bit. Chat. I'm intrigued by your description of pockets

1134
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:34,719
Speaker 1: behind linebackers and throwing it in there. That's something that

1135
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:37,360
Speaker 1: what Josh would not have to worry about it wyoming,

1136
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,320
Speaker 1: he just overpowered it with you know, the coverages he

1137
00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 1: saw and the and the different talent level there is

1138
00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:45,239
Speaker 1: that what you're telling us, well, I think in the

1139
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:49,400
Speaker 1: college game in general typically don't have to worry about pockets.

1140
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:52,359
Speaker 1: You were more about windows because the windows stay open

1141
00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 1: for a longer amount of time and cause than they're

1142
00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:59,560
Speaker 1: doing the pros. And then also, you know, defenses are smarter,

1143
00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:02,719
Speaker 1: they they anticipate more, they've got more years of experience,

1144
00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 1: they're more complex in the league, and so passing the

1145
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:09,200
Speaker 1: football being successful that is a whole other level than

1146
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 1: just dropping back and hitting a twelve yard hook route.

1147
00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:13,520
Speaker 1: Because there's one I'll want to nobody's underneath it. So

1148
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,239
Speaker 1: those are just things that you learn coming into the

1149
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:19,720
Speaker 1: league and as a young quarterback, and it doesn't happen overnight.

1150
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,160
Speaker 1: You've got to be patient. I think that's one thing

1151
00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:25,239
Speaker 1: our league in general has to do more and be

1152
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:27,920
Speaker 1: better about, is being patient with the development of our

1153
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,640
Speaker 1: players instead of just moving on to the next guy.

1154
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:32,800
Speaker 1: Because there's way too much talent in our league. I

1155
00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,120
Speaker 1: think from an arm my standpoint, that we don't get

1156
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:37,800
Speaker 1: more productivity out of our quarterbacks as a whole. Jedi,

1157
00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:39,480
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to be dense here, but can you

1158
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 1: tell me again the differences you would describe it between

1159
00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:45,480
Speaker 1: windows to hit and pockets to throw it into. What

1160
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:49,800
Speaker 1: do you see the distinction being three dimensional versus three dimensionals?

1161
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:52,840
Speaker 1: So sometimes you know, window is straight ahead, kind of

1162
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:56,160
Speaker 1: a straight line, throw me to you A to B

1163
00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:59,000
Speaker 1: and where you see that window. A lot of times

1164
00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:01,280
Speaker 1: in the league, there's gonna be by sitting in that window.

1165
00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 1: But in between the linebacker and the safety there still

1166
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:07,120
Speaker 1: maybe ten a ten yard pocket that you can get

1167
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:09,879
Speaker 1: the ball up and over the linebacker and back down

1168
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:12,640
Speaker 1: to your receiver before the safety gets there, and you

1169
00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 1: have a nice fifteen to eighteen yard completion. And so

1170
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:17,719
Speaker 1: you know, just because somebody standing in the window. You've

1171
00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:19,200
Speaker 1: got to be able to see, okay, because still get

1172
00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:21,439
Speaker 1: it over him and back down before that third level

1173
00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:23,920
Speaker 1: of defense comes over the top. And that's what has

1174
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:26,759
Speaker 1: to happen because these guys run so well. And now

1175
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:28,959
Speaker 1: it's when you throw the football, you don't anticipate someone

1176
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:30,920
Speaker 1: being there and all of a sudden they're there. And

1177
00:56:31,080 --> 00:56:33,200
Speaker 1: so just how you pass the football at that arc

1178
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,719
Speaker 1: and pace is really important. And being able to see

1179
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,600
Speaker 1: the field in three dimensions and not just two dimensions. Chad,

1180
00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:41,480
Speaker 1: you came into the league with the Jets and you

1181
00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 1: had a couple of injuries and all that, but you

1182
00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:47,719
Speaker 1: you were kind of a going through what these all

1183
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:51,640
Speaker 1: these drafted quarterbacks of this two two eighteen draft or

1184
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:56,200
Speaker 1: gone through. You've been through it. What's your philosophy about

1185
00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:58,759
Speaker 1: how to handle a young quarterback? And we've heard all

1186
00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:01,279
Speaker 1: the things like you need a good mentor on the

1187
00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:03,920
Speaker 1: on the on the roster to show him how to

1188
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:05,520
Speaker 1: do it, you need to throw him in there so

1189
00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:07,680
Speaker 1: he can learn on the go, or you need to

1190
00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 1: wait for a year. You know, what is your philosophy

1191
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:14,480
Speaker 1: about what's the best way to handle a young quarterback

1192
00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 1: and when to play them? Well, my philosophy is different,

1193
00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:21,240
Speaker 1: and some people told me I'm crazy to just my philosophy,

1194
00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:24,360
Speaker 1: But um, I think it's a three to five year process.

1195
00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:27,360
Speaker 1: I think by the third year, you really know, hey,

1196
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:29,720
Speaker 1: we've got something we can really work with. He has

1197
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:32,320
Speaker 1: made some improvements and he's got that gid factor that

1198
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:34,800
Speaker 1: we're looking for, and now we just got to now

1199
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:37,120
Speaker 1: turn turn the page and take it up a notch.

1200
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:39,920
Speaker 1: Or by the third year, ducated get going a word,

1201
00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:41,320
Speaker 1: and we you know, we've got to find a way

1202
00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:44,080
Speaker 1: to move on. And so I just remember as a

1203
00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 1: quarterback that third year the light bulb really went on

1204
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:48,960
Speaker 1: for me and things started to click and be a

1205
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,440
Speaker 1: little bit more clear. And so I think it definitely

1206
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:53,320
Speaker 1: is a three to five year process to truly find

1207
00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:55,920
Speaker 1: out what that quarterback is like and how you know,

1208
00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:57,400
Speaker 1: because it's a people game. You got to be a

1209
00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:00,520
Speaker 1: relate to guys and every guy's just and the best

1210
00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:03,800
Speaker 1: thing about playing quarterbacks it's been all shape, size, of speeds,

1211
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:07,400
Speaker 1: whatever can play that position. But it's about the relationship

1212
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:09,280
Speaker 1: between the staff, the quarterback and the team and how

1213
00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:12,960
Speaker 1: that works. You know, I think, you know, really really important.

1214
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:15,240
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to wait that long, Chad, right, I mean,

1215
00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:17,200
Speaker 1: you know that you follow the league, nobody wants to wait.

1216
00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:20,080
Speaker 1: People can't even envision waiting three years to figure out

1217
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:22,960
Speaker 1: if a quarterback and play. I know they can't. And

1218
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 1: you know, the only time I've ever seen, for the

1219
00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:27,600
Speaker 1: most part, the quarterbacks being able to be thrown in

1220
00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:29,480
Speaker 1: there is when they've had a good defense, they've got

1221
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:31,840
Speaker 1: a good team around them, and just just asking them

1222
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,520
Speaker 1: to they can learn and the team can make up

1223
00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:36,640
Speaker 1: for the mistakes as they're learning to still win and

1224
00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:39,840
Speaker 1: be be successful. You know, it has worked that way before.

1225
00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:42,480
Speaker 1: But even then, you know, when you have rookies that

1226
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:45,200
Speaker 1: have decent years, sometimes you see a sophomore slunt because

1227
00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:48,000
Speaker 1: those teams they get sixteen games a film on these guys,

1228
00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:49,960
Speaker 1: and they studying in and out, and they know exactly

1229
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:53,720
Speaker 1: what the strengths are. And so the consistency in our

1230
00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 1: league is so important. And that's why I respect these

1231
00:58:56,600 --> 00:59:00,200
Speaker 1: guys like Henny and Breeze and Brady and Rogers, because

1232
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:02,280
Speaker 1: they're able to do it yet and year out and

1233
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:06,240
Speaker 1: people are constantly studying them, trying to trying to defeat them,

1234
00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:08,120
Speaker 1: and they're still being able to be successful, which to

1235
00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:12,680
Speaker 1: me is a huge compliment and accomplishment. Chad. One of

1236
00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 1: the other things that we wanted to talk to you

1237
00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:16,160
Speaker 1: about is during your career, you had a chance to

1238
00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:18,560
Speaker 1: have a quarterback coach named Brian day Ball. I know,

1239
00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:21,400
Speaker 1: I don't know how long he was your coach, but uh,

1240
00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:24,000
Speaker 1: he's a new offensive coordinator here in Buffalo. We're trying

1241
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:26,240
Speaker 1: to get a handle on maybe what his offense will

1242
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:28,840
Speaker 1: look like because he is new and there are a

1243
00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:33,000
Speaker 1: lot of new moving pieces aside from the quarterback, even

1244
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 1: here in Buffalo. So what do you remember about being

1245
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:39,960
Speaker 1: coached by day Ball and his pluses and minuses? Is

1246
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:43,400
Speaker 1: what just like you did with Josh Allen Well, I

1247
00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:46,040
Speaker 1: spent one year with Brian uh in two thousand and

1248
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:49,320
Speaker 1: seven with the Jets. He'd come from New England, and

1249
00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:52,480
Speaker 1: then I've been in contact with him ever since and

1250
00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: watch him develop as a coordinator as well. I think

1251
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:59,080
Speaker 1: the best description, obviously his background is from the New

1252
00:59:59,120 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 1: England style of off sense. And when you think about

1253
01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:05,760
Speaker 1: the New England style, it's very versatile. It's multiple. They're

1254
01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:07,520
Speaker 1: not just going to hang their hat on one or

1255
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:09,000
Speaker 1: two things they do. They're going to try to be

1256
01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:12,160
Speaker 1: good at multiple things, so that whatever the game plan

1257
01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,360
Speaker 1: and whomever they're playing, the opponent, whatever it takes to

1258
01:00:15,480 --> 01:00:17,560
Speaker 1: defeat that opponent, they want to be good at that.

1259
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,280
Speaker 1: They don't just want to be stubborn at saying well

1260
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:22,200
Speaker 1: we just do this and this is the only thing

1261
01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:25,040
Speaker 1: we're going to do. And so from that standpoint, you know,

1262
01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:29,000
Speaker 1: I would expect multiplicity. I would expect versatility. Got a

1263
01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:31,120
Speaker 1: really good handle on the down the field passing game.

1264
01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:35,480
Speaker 1: Going to Alabama, I think strengthen him as a coordinator,

1265
01:00:36,040 --> 01:00:38,440
Speaker 1: learning there, taking some of the things that can be

1266
01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 1: incorporated from a college game into the pro game, those

1267
01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:43,440
Speaker 1: types of things, and so you know, I'm seeing him

1268
01:00:43,440 --> 01:00:46,720
Speaker 1: develop over the years, and they certainly have successful there

1269
01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:49,440
Speaker 1: in Buffalo. It's come. You know, we watch these practices.

1270
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:53,080
Speaker 1: He training camp, workouts, chat and day. Bold spends virtually

1271
01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:55,880
Speaker 1: all of his time in practice right with the quarterbacks,

1272
01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:58,280
Speaker 1: with Josh, but with the others as well. Was he

1273
01:00:58,400 --> 01:00:59,640
Speaker 1: like that with you? I mean you had him as

1274
01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:03,040
Speaker 1: a quarter coach, are sure he was, But he just

1275
01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 1: he doesn't let these guys get too far away. And

1276
01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:08,160
Speaker 1: we often wonder, I often wonder, what's what's he talking about?

1277
01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:11,400
Speaker 1: Is he talking about technique, footwork. Is he talking about

1278
01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:14,600
Speaker 1: play design? What do you think? Well, first of all,

1279
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:17,160
Speaker 1: I learned a lot of football from Brian. I mean

1280
01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:20,640
Speaker 1: a ton of football, especially on the defensive side, understanding

1281
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:24,960
Speaker 1: combo coverages and understanding why we're attacking this certain coverage

1282
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:27,400
Speaker 1: and where we're trying to attack. Me his knowledge on

1283
01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:30,120
Speaker 1: that side of the ball for a quarterback is invaluable,

1284
01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:32,760
Speaker 1: and so you know, I also think he knows how

1285
01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:35,240
Speaker 1: important it is to stay in these guys hit pockets,

1286
01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:37,800
Speaker 1: the staying here all the time, because they really need

1287
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:41,480
Speaker 1: to be listening to just one voice and be communicating

1288
01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 1: with one voice. That's the only way you create any

1289
01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:45,920
Speaker 1: type of consistency. Once you get three or four voices

1290
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:47,600
Speaker 1: in your head telling you three or four different things,

1291
01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:50,560
Speaker 1: it's very difficult to be consistent. And so I think

1292
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:52,240
Speaker 1: that's what he's trying to do is just stay right

1293
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:55,400
Speaker 1: there with him every day and every practice, every day

1294
01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:58,320
Speaker 1: and make sure that they're hearing that consistent voice and

1295
01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:02,439
Speaker 1: talking that consistent language, communicating correctly. The Chad Pennington, former

1296
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:05,240
Speaker 1: Jets first round draft pick, and talking to him about

1297
01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:08,680
Speaker 1: his knowledge of Brian Dable and of Josh Allen, I

1298
01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:11,200
Speaker 1: wonder Chad, if you can talk a little bit about

1299
01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:13,720
Speaker 1: a coach who had that, I know you thought very

1300
01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:15,960
Speaker 1: highly of Tony Sprano, who passed away about a week

1301
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:17,920
Speaker 1: and a half ago. It seems sounds like you had

1302
01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 1: a pretty close relationship with coach Brano. We did. I

1303
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,400
Speaker 1: remember I was a release on a Wednesday night in

1304
01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:28,200
Speaker 1: Cleveland for the Jets, and by Saturday, I was in

1305
01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:31,640
Speaker 1: his office at the stadium signing a contract and talking

1306
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:33,840
Speaker 1: to him about what his goals and visions were for

1307
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:36,160
Speaker 1: the club. They were just coming off a two thousand

1308
01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:38,040
Speaker 1: and seven season where they were one of fifteen and

1309
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:42,000
Speaker 1: new Ragime coach parcels in. He brings Tony in, and

1310
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:44,600
Speaker 1: I honest remember that first conversation being one of those

1311
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:48,520
Speaker 1: conversations that I could feel that he really valued the

1312
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:52,080
Speaker 1: coach player relationship part of it. And that's what I've

1313
01:02:52,120 --> 01:02:55,880
Speaker 1: always treasured with Tony is that he understands and understood

1314
01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:58,640
Speaker 1: that football still has a human element to it. We're

1315
01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:01,880
Speaker 1: not just robots out there like Madden Game that you know,

1316
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:04,560
Speaker 1: you've got to be able to reach us as men.

1317
01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:07,320
Speaker 1: And he really valued that part because he knew that,

1318
01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:08,800
Speaker 1: you know a lot of times a game of football

1319
01:03:08,840 --> 01:03:11,880
Speaker 1: just comes down to trust and communication, accountability to each other.

1320
01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:14,480
Speaker 1: It doesn't have anything to do with play calling. And

1321
01:03:14,920 --> 01:03:17,400
Speaker 1: so we tried to develop our relationship and I think that,

1322
01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:19,720
Speaker 1: you know, we both understood from a head coach and

1323
01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:22,520
Speaker 1: a quarterback, we're the only two guys that carry records

1324
01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:25,320
Speaker 1: in the building. And so with that being said, we've

1325
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:26,920
Speaker 1: got to make sure we're on the same page. We'll

1326
01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:28,960
Speaker 1: give the same messages to our team, We'll give the

1327
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:31,000
Speaker 1: same messages to the media and to our fans. And

1328
01:03:31,560 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 1: I just really enjoyed working with him, and you know,

1329
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:36,520
Speaker 1: I was able to maintain a relationship after that as well.

1330
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:38,960
Speaker 1: But he was one of a kind. You know, it

1331
01:03:39,160 --> 01:03:42,040
Speaker 1: kind of sounded and seemed gruffy on the outside, but

1332
01:03:42,080 --> 01:03:44,240
Speaker 1: he had a soft heart. And it's kind of funny,

1333
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:46,880
Speaker 1: you know, have a fiery Italian like him hooked up

1334
01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:49,760
Speaker 1: with a Sensei country boy like me. It doesn't seem

1335
01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 1: like it would work, but it really did. Hey, all

1336
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:55,440
Speaker 1: those of you eleven years Jets and Dolphins, you must

1337
01:03:55,480 --> 01:03:58,880
Speaker 1: have had some memorable days, memorable plays against the Buffalo Bills,

1338
01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:00,840
Speaker 1: either home or away, that stand out as you look

1339
01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:04,800
Speaker 1: back at that. Yet, well, one thing I always tell

1340
01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:07,360
Speaker 1: people is that in Buffalo, you never know until the

1341
01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:09,600
Speaker 1: day of the game one type of weather you're going

1342
01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:12,480
Speaker 1: to get. I've played there and it's been one hundred

1343
01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:14,560
Speaker 1: and two degrees on the opening day. I've played in

1344
01:04:14,640 --> 01:04:19,360
Speaker 1: a driving snowstorm, rain, sleep, forty mile hour wind. It's

1345
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,680
Speaker 1: been everything. Probably one of the most you know, a

1346
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:25,400
Speaker 1: memorable moment that's not memorable for me, but that's where

1347
01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:27,920
Speaker 1: I actually tore my rotator cuff the first time I

1348
01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:32,240
Speaker 1: was in Buffalo. But and then I also remember going

1349
01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:35,040
Speaker 1: to Toronto and playing there when I was with the Dolphins,

1350
01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:38,040
Speaker 1: playing off the sky Dome, playing the Bills there. But

1351
01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:40,960
Speaker 1: I just always remember when you were going to Buffalo,

1352
01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:43,680
Speaker 1: you were in for an all day soccer. You better

1353
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:45,840
Speaker 1: pack a lunch and it's going to be all day

1354
01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:48,840
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a grind. Regardless of what your

1355
01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:51,640
Speaker 1: season has been like. This season has been like you

1356
01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:53,960
Speaker 1: better come to play every time. And it was a

1357
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,560
Speaker 1: fun atmosphere. Fans are right there on top of you.

1358
01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:00,240
Speaker 1: I always enjoyed playing there. Yeah, if you're entire career,

1359
01:05:00,320 --> 01:05:02,320
Speaker 1: you were seeing the Bills twice a year, both with

1360
01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:05,760
Speaker 1: the Jets and the Dolphins, and always as a division rival.

1361
01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:10,920
Speaker 1: Um and um it was. Yeah. I imagine you've played

1362
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:14,400
Speaker 1: probably in uh, in this stadium in Buffalo as much

1363
01:05:14,440 --> 01:05:16,320
Speaker 1: as you played in any other stadium in the in

1364
01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:18,720
Speaker 1: the league, except for maybe the two other ones. I

1365
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:23,400
Speaker 1: mean you were here a bunch here and England, right, yeah, exactly. Um,

1366
01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,120
Speaker 1: you know other than New York in Miami, because I've

1367
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:29,640
Speaker 1: played both home anyway. Then, Um, you know as New

1368
01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:32,760
Speaker 1: England and Buffalo, those are the staples every year, you know,

1369
01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:36,160
Speaker 1: and uh played against some really great Buffalo teams and

1370
01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:39,720
Speaker 1: and uh you had some great moments too. Um, you know,

1371
01:05:40,080 --> 01:05:42,680
Speaker 1: good and bath. But it's always memories. And that's why

1372
01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:44,160
Speaker 1: I tell people, you know, when you play, you don't

1373
01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:48,360
Speaker 1: necessarily member scores and plays. You remember relationships and stories

1374
01:05:48,440 --> 01:05:50,520
Speaker 1: on the plane and the bus and on the sideline

1375
01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:52,080
Speaker 1: and things like that. That's what you miss, is the

1376
01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:54,360
Speaker 1: cammaderie of it all. Ya did I read are you

1377
01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:57,120
Speaker 1: working with quarterbacks on a regular basis? Didn't you work

1378
01:05:57,200 --> 01:06:00,600
Speaker 1: with our buddy Joe Locato from Universe a Buffalo a

1379
01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:03,360
Speaker 1: couple of years ago? You're doing it. I actually did

1380
01:06:03,480 --> 01:06:05,920
Speaker 1: work with Joe. Um. You know, it's just you know,

1381
01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:08,520
Speaker 1: sometimes I'll have a friend of mine or acquaintance of mind,

1382
01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:12,000
Speaker 1: call and ask if I want to come up and

1383
01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:15,360
Speaker 1: work with somebody. You know. Also through the NFL Legends community,

1384
01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:18,400
Speaker 1: we have a mentorship program. I'm co executive director with

1385
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:21,400
Speaker 1: Leonard Wheeler in this community, and it's this community of

1386
01:06:21,480 --> 01:06:24,600
Speaker 1: just you know, the brotherhood getting together and serving former players.

1387
01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:27,600
Speaker 1: But one of our initiatives within that is having a

1388
01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:32,280
Speaker 1: current player uh space and presence and so our mentor

1389
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:35,320
Speaker 1: program where we go to combine and we match up,

1390
01:06:35,400 --> 01:06:37,840
Speaker 1: you know, match up with a group of quarterbacks and

1391
01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:40,520
Speaker 1: go to Senior Bowl and just have that presence with

1392
01:06:40,640 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 1: them and let them use us as a resource. And

1393
01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:44,720
Speaker 1: that's kind of how I was able to meet Josh

1394
01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:47,640
Speaker 1: and Baker Mayfield some of those guys and just share

1395
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:50,320
Speaker 1: our experiences with them. You know. Sometimes as former players,

1396
01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:52,240
Speaker 1: we kind of have some answers to the test before

1397
01:06:52,280 --> 01:06:55,160
Speaker 1: they take the test, if they want to reach out

1398
01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:57,160
Speaker 1: to us, I think we're more than happy to do that,

1399
01:06:57,320 --> 01:06:59,920
Speaker 1: to share our experiences because we know, you know, how

1400
01:07:00,120 --> 01:07:02,560
Speaker 1: tough it can be for a young for a young player. Yeah,

1401
01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:04,720
Speaker 1: that's great work. Chat. Thanks for spending a few minutes

1402
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:07,400
Speaker 1: with us today. We appreciate it. Absolutely, thank you guys

1403
01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:09,720
Speaker 1: for having me. Chad Pennington, former first round pick of

1404
01:07:09,720 --> 01:07:11,880
Speaker 1: the Jets back in two thousand and eleven seasons in

1405
01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:14,040
Speaker 1: the NFL for the Jets and the Dolphins, and he

1406
01:07:14,120 --> 01:07:17,280
Speaker 1: joined us on the Subway Fresh Take Hotline, Subway Eat Fresh.

1407
01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:19,520
Speaker 1: We thank Chad for being on the show. You told

1408
01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:22,080
Speaker 1: me before we went down the air that for your money,

1409
01:07:22,160 --> 01:07:25,320
Speaker 1: Chad Pennington was one of the best passers. No, I no,

1410
01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:28,160
Speaker 1: I just not not better all that he was good.

1411
01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:32,240
Speaker 1: He was really really good quarterback whose career was really

1412
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:34,520
Speaker 1: I and friend, my mind sabotaged by what he taught

1413
01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:37,520
Speaker 1: his rotortator started he did the first time he did

1414
01:07:37,520 --> 01:07:39,680
Speaker 1: it was here. Then he did it again, and he

1415
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:42,080
Speaker 1: came back and just could not throw the football well

1416
01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:44,600
Speaker 1: enough anymore. It was kind of a Peyton Manning thing

1417
01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:46,760
Speaker 1: where he just couldn't get an enough velocity on it.

1418
01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:49,320
Speaker 1: And you talk about a guy who got the most

1419
01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:52,360
Speaker 1: out of um out of his arm that kind of

1420
01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:56,080
Speaker 1: betrayed him later in his career. He's it. He he

1421
01:07:56,280 --> 01:07:59,000
Speaker 1: was a great leader, he was a great teammate. All

1422
01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:01,040
Speaker 1: the guys that I knew he played with the Jets,

1423
01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:03,920
Speaker 1: he was and I think the Bills franchise and a

1424
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:05,600
Speaker 1: lot of teams the other address of the teams in

1425
01:08:05,640 --> 01:08:09,680
Speaker 1: the AFC's were very lucky that his career wasn't everything

1426
01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:12,600
Speaker 1: it could have been, because he had everything except he

1427
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:14,640
Speaker 1: lost his arm because of an injury, and that it

1428
01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:16,000
Speaker 1: was a sad thing. I mean, he got a good

1429
01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:18,880
Speaker 1: eleven year career out of it, but if he would

1430
01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:23,479
Speaker 1: have had an arm like AJ mccarroon or Nathan Peterman,

1431
01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:26,040
Speaker 1: he would have been But if he'd had Nate, Josh

1432
01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:29,200
Speaker 1: Allen or Jim Kelly's arm, you'd still be talking about him.

1433
01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:31,760
Speaker 1: The guy was a true talent because he had He

1434
01:08:32,040 --> 01:08:33,720
Speaker 1: threw the right guy all the time. At the end

1435
01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:35,840
Speaker 1: of his career, he had to throw the football so

1436
01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:38,519
Speaker 1: early in the route because he he was like you

1437
01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:40,479
Speaker 1: talk about arc he was talking about it. He had

1438
01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:42,439
Speaker 1: to throw the thing like a rainbow to get it there,

1439
01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:45,920
Speaker 1: and he would let that thing go so early. No

1440
01:08:46,040 --> 01:08:47,519
Speaker 1: other quarterback could have done it, and he had to

1441
01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:50,240
Speaker 1: be so on top of it mentally to anticipate that.

1442
01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:53,720
Speaker 1: It really showed through how far ahead he was with

1443
01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:56,000
Speaker 1: his game. And I felt bad for him as much

1444
01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:58,160
Speaker 1: as I felt bad for any quarterback that he never

1445
01:08:58,280 --> 01:09:00,760
Speaker 1: got to throw with his real arm. Great guests, we're

1446

Speaker 1: glad to talk about Hope we get a chance to

1447
01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:04,000
Speaker 1: talk to him again. It sounds like he's a little

1448
01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:06,120
Speaker 1: bit invested in Josh Allen Right, wants to see this

1449
01:09:06,240 --> 01:09:08,760
Speaker 1: kid succeed. He's probably cheering for him. Yeah, it sounds like,

1507
01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:16,640
Speaker 1: to get the Super Bowl. But I just remember the

1508
01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:19,840
Speaker 1: great camaraderie or talent and and and guys as you

1509
01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:22,080
Speaker 1: go on and see how other guys come in, how

1510
01:12:22,760 --> 01:12:25,560
Speaker 1: lucky were to just playing this league. So I loved it.

1511
01:12:25,640 --> 01:12:28,200
Speaker 1: I love the chickle wings. I love to go down

1512
01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:31,040
Speaker 1: the Big Tree. We used to play the past hour

1513
01:12:31,160 --> 01:12:35,240
Speaker 1: play times together and used to cheat the great guys.

1514
01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:38,000
Speaker 1: And I don't most people will never ever get to

1515
01:12:38,080 --> 01:12:41,840
Speaker 1: experience that for that long when you get older. Um,

1516
01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:45,559
Speaker 1: playing at that level with all these great athletes, Fred,

1517
01:12:45,640 --> 01:12:48,280
Speaker 1: did you like training camp? Did you like going to camp?

1518
01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:52,519
Speaker 1: You like shitting your foot with the hammer? The answer

1519
01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:56,960
Speaker 1: is the answer. Now you know she was okay until

1520
01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:58,720
Speaker 1: we had the brain cell in there and Hank that

1521
01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:00,920
Speaker 1: didn't know was ask from a hole in the ground.

1522
01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:03,599
Speaker 1: I can say, asks right, Well, there we go down

1523
01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:11,960
Speaker 1: where did you have like these days? There's no training camp.

1524
01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:15,040
Speaker 1: It's it's Cinderellic camp. It's Disney, right. We used to

1525
01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:18,760
Speaker 1: go down there and hit I remember it was six

1526
01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:23,280
Speaker 1: to seven weeks in pads. Yeah, that's to day listen first,

1527
01:13:23,280 --> 01:13:24,880
Speaker 1: so I'm then you get to the season and it

1528
01:13:24,960 --> 01:13:27,880
Speaker 1: takes you two weeks to recoup. Yeah. I remember this, Fred,

1529
01:13:27,960 --> 01:13:30,040
Speaker 1: when when I first got to Buffalo, I was I

1530
01:13:30,560 --> 01:13:33,519
Speaker 1: was the first new players signed after they fired Hank Bulla.

1531
01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:35,479
Speaker 1: But you had I heard you and other all the

1532
01:13:35,520 --> 01:13:37,760
Speaker 1: other guys were telling stories, particularly once you got went

1533
01:13:37,840 --> 01:13:39,880
Speaker 1: through a Marv Levy training camp, of what it used

1534
01:13:39,880 --> 01:13:42,160
Speaker 1: to be like when Hank Buller was the head coach.

1535
01:13:42,280 --> 01:13:45,519
Speaker 1: And I remember you telling me the first training camp

1536
01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:50,599
Speaker 1: practice of his era, it was raining and you couldn't

1537
01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:53,840
Speaker 1: get on the field. I'll never forget this. You said

1538
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:57,400
Speaker 1: that you guys had a nine on seven drill in

1539
01:13:57,520 --> 01:14:02,040
Speaker 1: the parking lot on the pavement. I just thought, you

1540
01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:05,000
Speaker 1: know you mean what? I lost it you repeat that, Steve,

1541
01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:08,360
Speaker 1: did you have on your first training camp practice when

1542
01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:10,639
Speaker 1: it was raining with Hank Buller? Do you guys really

1543
01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:13,400
Speaker 1: do nine on seven, which is a running drill, tackling drill,

1544
01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:16,080
Speaker 1: live drill on a in the parking lot on the pavement.

1545
01:14:19,800 --> 01:14:21,960
Speaker 1: We lost, Fred must be going through the hills in

1546
01:14:22,040 --> 01:14:24,840
Speaker 1: Western New York. Here are you now? There? You know

1547
01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:28,000
Speaker 1: I am, I'm in that bird sanctually. Oh yeah, okay

1548
01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:32,800
Speaker 1: between Syracuse and Rochester. Yeah, I know we are. Yeah,

1549
01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:34,960
Speaker 1: so you don't want those poor birds and hit one

1550
01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:38,320
Speaker 1: of those towers. Oh my goodness, well whatever that you're

1551
01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:41,519
Speaker 1: not the environmental drift from the brain cell. It was

1552
01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:44,760
Speaker 1: raining out right, right, So you didn't want to go

1553
01:14:44,840 --> 01:14:46,560
Speaker 1: on the fields and mess the fields up. So we

1554
01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:50,840
Speaker 1: put up sneakers on playing the possing lot. Where's that

1555
01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:53,639
Speaker 1: a free don't you so? Athletes playing it? Oh? Too?

1556
01:14:53,680 --> 01:14:57,760

1557
01:14:57,800 --> 01:15:00,519
Speaker 1: different world. Fred that it was only a year and

1558
01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:03,639
Speaker 1: a half with Hank Bubba, and yet you retain most

1559
01:15:03,680 --> 01:15:06,400
Speaker 1: of your NFL memories from that short span. Why is that?

1560
01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:08,679
Speaker 1: What was it about Hank Bubba that got you so upset?

1561
01:15:11,479 --> 01:15:14,560
Speaker 1: I keep losing? Yeah, go ahead, we can hear you.

1562
01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:16,880
Speaker 1: What was it about Hank Bullo? I'll tell you what.

1563
01:15:17,000 --> 01:15:20,200
Speaker 1: The first thing I remember about hancupied when I was

1564
01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:23,200
Speaker 1: going to the Senior Bowl. I wasn't a really well

1565
01:15:23,320 --> 01:15:26,560
Speaker 1: dressed fellow, so I had like a flannel shirt and

1566
01:15:26,640 --> 01:15:28,479
Speaker 1: I cut the sweeves off with his walm out. I

1567
01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:33,800
Speaker 1: got on the plane with alba Um. Yeah, Beal, Alabama,

1568
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:35,560

01:15:35,640 --> 01:15:40,040
Speaker 1: plane and it was bothering the Stewardesson. So as I'm

01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:46,800
Speaker 1: got through the sanctuary. Yeah, okay, so now you're reapproaching

1589
01:16:46,880 --> 01:16:50,519
Speaker 1: the Syracuse very soon. Hey, one last chance for you

1590
01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:52,880
Speaker 1: to take a crackhead. Hank bull And you were telling

1591
01:16:52,960 --> 01:16:56,240
Speaker 1: the story about the your flight to the Senior Bowling

1592
01:16:56,320 --> 01:16:59,439
Speaker 1: Mobile and some guy was somebody upfront was getting after

1593
01:16:59,479 --> 01:17:01,120
Speaker 1: the stewart. This is giving them a hard time. What

1594
01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:05,000
Speaker 1: was the story there? Okay? So now I look down

1595
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:07,960
Speaker 1: and I see it said New England Patriots on the

1596
01:17:08,040 --> 01:17:11,880
Speaker 1: shirt and he's drooling on himself and he said he's

1597
01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:14,320
Speaker 1: got schooling and making. I didn't know who he was.

1598
01:17:14,360 --> 01:17:18,240
Speaker 1: I just quiet and get off the plane. Stuff bothering stores.

1599
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:21,519
Speaker 1: It was over, So I never thought i'd see that

1600
01:17:21,640 --> 01:17:25,360
Speaker 1: face again. And now we're playing and Hank and then

1601
01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:27,800
Speaker 1: they're going to bring the genius in. He got Hank

1602
01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:30,800
Speaker 1: Bullock from New England Patriots and he's going to be

1603
01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:36,040
Speaker 1: the coordinator and he would obviously cut my Chase Stevenson's throat.

1604
01:17:36,920 --> 01:17:38,720
Speaker 1: So I go up to see him among in the

1605
01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:41,840
Speaker 1: elevator and the door opens and I see Polly, I

1606
01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:48,800
Speaker 1: mean white patent leather shoes, purple POLYESDA pants with the

1607
01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:51,600
Speaker 1: big bulge of his stomach sticking out and then the

1608
01:17:51,720 --> 01:17:55,599
Speaker 1: shirt with tobacco drool all over it, and there's the face,

1609
01:17:56,400 --> 01:18:00,280
Speaker 1: the face and handful rooling on himself with chewing acer

1610
01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:03,280
Speaker 1: get back in the elevator, said, my life's over. The

1611
01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:06,439
Speaker 1: guy from the plane is going to be the genius. Now.

1612
01:18:07,320 --> 01:18:10,000
Speaker 1: People don't realize that guy. I don't know how he

1613
01:18:10,120 --> 01:18:12,720
Speaker 1: fooled people because he was the dumbest human beings guy

1614
01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:15,439
Speaker 1: ever put on this earth. We had a defense called

1615
01:18:15,479 --> 01:18:18,160
Speaker 1: the Smith Brothers, and everyone names Smith would be on

1616
01:18:18,200 --> 01:18:21,760
Speaker 1: the field right the one defense. This isn't a lost.

1617
01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:23,600
Speaker 1: I'll give you a hand. He said, We're gonna do this,

1618
01:18:24,280 --> 01:18:28,080
Speaker 1: you guys outsilling and the past rushers. I'm gonna hit

1619
01:18:28,160 --> 01:18:30,559
Speaker 1: your guys. Put your hands up and shuffle to the right,

1620
01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:33,880
Speaker 1: and that will make it was against Boomer Sizason. That

1621
01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:36,479
Speaker 1: would make Boomer think that he's open and roll out

1622
01:18:36,520 --> 01:18:39,200
Speaker 1: to your left and Bruce will get him from behind. Okay,

1623
01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:42,240
Speaker 1: so you jump up, shuffle, put our hands up, and

1624
01:18:42,280 --> 01:18:44,439
Speaker 1: guess run. They ran a toss to our left for

1625
01:18:44,520 --> 01:18:48,320
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Like I s come a silent and he's

1626
01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:50,559
Speaker 1: just looking off in the space and like, oh my god.

1627
01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:52,439
Speaker 1: I talked to Polio, I said, did you ever talk

1628
01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:54,479
Speaker 1: to this guy for you high? And oh my god?

1629
01:18:55,520 --> 01:18:57,840
Speaker 1: But then it was mob and mob or anything and

1630
01:18:58,120 --> 01:19:02,240
Speaker 1: anything but hand, so he was fine. Obviously, my favored

1631
01:19:02,360 --> 01:19:05,160
Speaker 1: was Chuck Knox. Was a great coach, but really didn't

1632
01:19:05,840 --> 01:19:07,880
Speaker 1: get along too well with Ralph, so he hadn't. But

1633
01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:11,439
Speaker 1: we had some great guys on those uh, you know,

1634
01:19:11,600 --> 01:19:13,680
Speaker 1: Hank Bullock Keeves are a ton of talent as soon

1635
01:19:13,680 --> 01:19:16,280
Speaker 1: as especially when you know, Telly came a lot. So

1636
01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:18,400
Speaker 1: that was one of the memories. Said he made his

1637
01:19:18,479 --> 01:19:21,240
Speaker 1: practice on TA in a passion lot. I'm like, oh

1638
01:19:21,280 --> 01:19:23,240
Speaker 1: my god, I got it. I'll tell you what though, Fred,

1639
01:19:23,240 --> 01:19:26,080
Speaker 1: I'm glad I brought up because now we can institute

1640
01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:29,000
Speaker 1: a fine system that anybody's gonna be fined a dollar forever.

1641
01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:33,920
Speaker 1: Mentioning Hank Bulla with you on the radio again, it

1642
01:19:34,160 --> 01:19:38,320
Speaker 1: lives in my mind in a small cage up. Fred,

1643
01:19:38,360 --> 01:19:41,120
Speaker 1: you've mentioned Chuck Knox, who he was your first coach

1644
01:19:41,200 --> 01:19:43,000
Speaker 1: when you got here to the Buffalo Bills just passed

1645
01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:44,920
Speaker 1: away a couple of months ago. What was it about

1646
01:19:44,960 --> 01:19:47,479
Speaker 1: Chuck Knox that you thought was was so strong? Why

1647
01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:50,599
Speaker 1: was he your favorite? You know, Chuck Knox. Why would

1648
01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:53,560
Speaker 1: make it the U the Raiders of the East. So

1649
01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:58,920
Speaker 1: he brought in you know, later on Filipiano, he brought

1650
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,120
Speaker 1: in kind of a doub uh. Then he brought in

1651
01:20:01,280 --> 01:20:03,439
Speaker 1: has Or you know, was the mented guy. But when

1652
01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:05,960
Speaker 1: you're just talking to him and they and they, I

1653
01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:08,040
Speaker 1: was supposed to go to the top ten, but they

1654
01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:10,599
Speaker 1: thought it was a little out of control and college.

1655
01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:13,800
Speaker 1: So I slipped and I got a call from Huck.

1656
01:20:13,880 --> 01:20:17,439
Speaker 1: It's a second round, and he says to me, yeah,

1657
01:20:17,520 --> 01:20:19,320
Speaker 1: we got to be gone there early, but we loved

1658
01:20:19,360 --> 01:20:21,680
Speaker 1: to have me in Buffalo. We heard your meeting, so

1659
01:20:21,960 --> 01:20:25,760
Speaker 1: be he's gonna take She's screaming in his or. I

1660
01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:27,960
Speaker 1: never heard a cold stock like that. I go, yeah,

1661
01:20:28,040 --> 01:20:30,280
Speaker 1: that'd be great, Chuck. So you go up there and

1662
01:20:30,360 --> 01:20:33,160
Speaker 1: it was Lucy Goosey. He goes not going on a

1663
01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:35,840
Speaker 1: business tribute to where what you want? We're going to

1664
01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:38,479
Speaker 1: take the front. I mean he was, and he brought

1665
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:42,240
Speaker 1: those type of guys, so it fitted well with you know,

1666
01:20:42,400 --> 01:20:44,800
Speaker 1: the crew we had. But then when he got fired,

1667
01:20:44,960 --> 01:20:48,080
Speaker 1: Hank came man. I mean Kay Stevenson came man, and

1668
01:20:48,160 --> 01:20:50,120
Speaker 1: you didn't know he was alive except for smoke coming

1669
01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:52,719
Speaker 1: I was nose once in a while, so it was completed.

1670
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,680
Speaker 1: So it was completely opposite. But Chuck was he was

1671
01:20:55,720 --> 01:20:57,960
Speaker 1: a player coach. He loved the guys. I remember when

1672
01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:00,920
Speaker 1: you when the training camp really hot and we had

1673
01:21:00,920 --> 01:21:04,040
Speaker 1: a great first practice, second practice of growth there stretch.

1674
01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:06,160
Speaker 1: He goes, come on in because you guys are playing

1675
01:21:06,240 --> 01:21:09,080
Speaker 1: great and have a playing a tough working on. Take

1676
01:21:09,120 --> 01:21:10,960
Speaker 1: it into the lot room. We go running in. There's

1677
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:13,280
Speaker 1: two cakes, a beer, and we just sat there for

1678
01:21:13,360 --> 01:21:15,479
Speaker 1: like four I was drinking beer and dumping on each

1679
01:21:15,479 --> 01:21:19,000
Speaker 1: other's head. That's you know, how to built cominary. Let's face,

1680
01:21:19,080 --> 01:21:21,280
Speaker 1: it's not a business. You don't go into a business

1681
01:21:21,520 --> 01:21:24,360
Speaker 1: and smash Ower in the head or Steve task you

1682
01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:26,840
Speaker 1: running knocking some guy's teeth out of special with you.

1683
01:21:27,160 --> 01:21:30,679
Speaker 1: It's not a business. It's a war. That's how shout

1684
01:21:30,720 --> 01:21:33,679
Speaker 1: to approach it. So that's why we love them, all right, Fred,

1685
01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:36,000
Speaker 1: we're talking to Fred Smurders for Buffalo Bill and there's

1686
01:21:36,040 --> 01:21:37,360
Speaker 1: one thing we got to talk to you about now

1687
01:21:37,439 --> 01:21:41,800
Speaker 1: that today it's interesting that some of the it's something

1688
01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:43,960
Speaker 1: that Bills fans have been waiting for for a long

1689
01:21:44,040 --> 01:21:47,200
Speaker 1: long time. It's Tom Brady's forty first birthday, they brought

1690
01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:50,639
Speaker 1: out a twelve foot cake. Uh that this day couldn't

1691
01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:53,200
Speaker 1: come fast enough for Buffalo Bills fans that Tom Brady

1692
01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:55,519
Speaker 1: turns forty one, that we wish it was fifty one.

1693
01:21:56,320 --> 01:21:59,320
Speaker 1: But you got to talk a little bit. You've covered

1694
01:21:59,320 --> 01:22:01,760
Speaker 1: these Patriots and we've we've watched them from Afar and

1695
01:22:01,880 --> 01:22:04,680
Speaker 1: played against him as Bills fans watched our team do it.

1696
01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:08,240
Speaker 1: This is quite a deal to have a quarterback in

1697
01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:10,559
Speaker 1: the NFL who's done everything that Tom Brady has done

1698
01:22:10,600 --> 01:22:12,760
Speaker 1: and still playing at the level he has. But seeing

1699
01:22:12,880 --> 01:22:14,880
Speaker 1: the twelve foot cake and all the stuff that they're

1700
01:22:14,920 --> 01:22:18,160
Speaker 1: doing for him, can you put into words the kind

1701
01:22:18,200 --> 01:22:21,400
Speaker 1: of presence he is in that region for that team.

1702
01:22:22,360 --> 01:22:24,800
Speaker 1: We don't when he was when he first got there.

1703
01:22:24,920 --> 01:22:27,479
Speaker 1: My friend caught me up. That was assistant GM. He says,

1704
01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:31,040
Speaker 1: you won't believe this guy. He's a sixth sound pick.

1705
01:22:31,600 --> 01:22:34,479
Speaker 1: He's a six five, six more and a half, one

1706
01:22:34,560 --> 01:22:38,520
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety five pounds of skin. Here's no muscles,

1707
01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:42,680
Speaker 1: he has no fat. He goes, but Belichick loves him.

1708
01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:45,679
Speaker 1: He learned the game plan, the playbook in a week,

1709
01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:49,720
Speaker 1: and Bledsoe was still trying to comprehend it. He said,

1710
01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:53,479
Speaker 1: he does everything perfectly. He sat to what Belichick likes,

1711
01:22:53,800 --> 01:22:55,519
Speaker 1: but he's afraid if he puts him in he got

1712
01:22:55,640 --> 01:22:57,120
Speaker 1: killed him, he gets hit. You know, he wanted to

1713
01:22:57,160 --> 01:23:00,880
Speaker 1: pump them up. So that's when he got his fourth string.

1714
01:23:01,320 --> 01:23:03,120
Speaker 1: And when blads have got hurt. It was a shocked

1715
01:23:03,160 --> 01:23:05,360
Speaker 1: that they moved them to number one because he's just

1716
01:23:06,880 --> 01:23:11,360
Speaker 1: said he has he can analyze and dissect a play

1717
01:23:11,960 --> 01:23:14,120
Speaker 1: in seconds. No matter what you throw in them, he

1718
01:23:14,240 --> 01:23:16,320
Speaker 1: can dissect it. And you know, they won a lot

1719
01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:18,720
Speaker 1: of you know, site of Josh Manson. They changed how

1720
01:23:18,760 --> 01:23:21,240
Speaker 1: many formations and different personnel groups they put them there

1721
01:23:21,880 --> 01:23:23,880
Speaker 1: and what they do. And the reason he's so good

1722
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:27,880
Speaker 1: is they get guys not always the most athleticized guys

1723
01:23:27,920 --> 01:23:30,599
Speaker 1: that could understand and execute a public at a game player,

1724
01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:34,040
Speaker 1: and he is. We played a ton of basketball at

1725
01:23:34,080 --> 01:23:38,200
Speaker 1: The one pointing story is the year his rookie year,

1726
01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:41,519
Speaker 1: we played about remember twenty and thirty of those basketball games.

1727
01:23:42,400 --> 01:23:45,639
Speaker 1: Then after Lawl he hit twelve or thirteen three pointers.

1728
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:48,920
Speaker 1: They are a pretty good basketball player. So after Super

1729
01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:51,800
Speaker 1: Bowls over a Super Bowl MVP that year, he came

1730
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:53,719
Speaker 1: to play another game with us, and then me growing

1731
01:23:53,800 --> 01:23:55,960
Speaker 1: and Steve the ously sitting on the bench, and Tom

1732
01:23:56,040 --> 01:24:00,360
Speaker 1: came and sat between us. Congratulation time right, people though

1733
01:24:00,360 --> 01:24:02,439
Speaker 1: he looks at he goes, but round me. Last year

1734
01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:07,080
Speaker 1: Low I was on fire. Everything mats, everything means something

1735
01:24:07,120 --> 01:24:09,120
Speaker 1: to the guy. You know. It's the competitiveness can be.

1736
01:24:09,600 --> 01:24:12,040
Speaker 1: He comes into five thirty in the morning, study films

1737
01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:15,560
Speaker 1: well until eight o'clock and anyone else comes in. The

1738
01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:18,439
Speaker 1: question was at the Belichick about what do you fear

1739
01:24:18,560 --> 01:24:21,280
Speaker 1: most in football? He goes, I fear not having the

1740
01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:23,960
Speaker 1: answers to Tom Brady when he comes in when he

1741
01:24:24,040 --> 01:24:26,400
Speaker 1: comes in, because he goes and studied, so he's just

1742
01:24:27,040 --> 01:24:30,280
Speaker 1: dedicated from And what people don't understand about the game today,

1743
01:24:30,400 --> 01:24:33,439
Speaker 1: it's a powderpuff game. You know this, Steve. You don't

1744
01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:35,800
Speaker 1: kill each other in practice. You can't close line the

1745
01:24:35,840 --> 01:24:37,880
Speaker 1: guy and take his knees out or whatever it was

1746
01:24:37,920 --> 01:24:40,679
Speaker 1: happening back then. So if you still love the game,

1747
01:24:40,880 --> 01:24:43,599
Speaker 1: and we'll stay up with you know, staying in shape

1748
01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:47,320
Speaker 1: and being competitive, you can play a lot longer a

1749
01:24:47,439 --> 01:24:49,680
Speaker 1: thirty year old guys like a forty year old guy

1750
01:24:49,800 --> 01:24:53,240
Speaker 1: today in the old days. So if guys don't get

1751
01:24:53,280 --> 01:24:55,640
Speaker 1: burnt out and don't get fat and lazy from all

1752
01:24:55,680 --> 01:24:58,200
Speaker 1: the big money. You can play a lot longer. And

1753
01:24:58,360 --> 01:25:02,759
Speaker 1: tom Brady is competitive, ultra smart and a tremendous leader.

1754
01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:06,000
Speaker 1: He is, He's a piece. I'm surprised you you left

1755
01:25:06,760 --> 01:25:09,200
Speaker 1: Boston today, friend, and because it's such a holiday there

1756
01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:11,559
Speaker 1: right the banks are all closed and you probably had

1757
01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:13,840
Speaker 1: to go to church today to celebrate tom Brady's birthday.

1758
01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:16,519
Speaker 1: How could you? How could you leave New England on

1759
01:25:16,840 --> 01:25:19,640
Speaker 1: an important day like this. I just stopped at the

1760
01:25:19,680 --> 01:25:21,960
Speaker 1: rush stop and you're needing some tom Bady cake and

1761
01:25:22,040 --> 01:25:25,480
Speaker 1: drinking some tom Brady milk to make sure always celebrating.

1762
01:25:26,439 --> 01:25:29,320
Speaker 1: He's a great you guys are? I mean, it's funny

1763
01:25:29,320 --> 01:25:31,880
Speaker 1: because a good place. We're in the sun the seven

1764
01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:34,479
Speaker 1: one six a couple of years ago to Alumnic thing

1765
01:25:34,600 --> 01:25:37,200
Speaker 1: and tom Brady space come on and everyone started doing him.

1766
01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:39,760
Speaker 1: If you have a maname, it's just such a nice guy.

1767
01:25:39,840 --> 01:25:42,000
Speaker 1: As what daughter a kids are I mean as a

1768
01:25:42,280 --> 01:25:45,640
Speaker 1: sisters are real nice, parents are nice. But he's a

1769
01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:49,519
Speaker 1: trash coccer. Steve, you taught you taught smack all the time.

1770
01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:52,640
Speaker 1: I know I've had dealings with her. I've been in

1771
01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:54,320
Speaker 1: production meetings and you kind of get a sense of

1772
01:25:54,360 --> 01:25:56,639
Speaker 1: who the guys and I and everything you say really

1773
01:25:56,800 --> 01:25:59,560
Speaker 1: is true. I mean, but it's hard to fathom that

1774
01:25:59,680 --> 01:26:02,920
Speaker 1: when you've you've seen him, you know, decimate the entire

1775
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:04,880
Speaker 1: league for as long as he has. It's so easy

1776
01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:08,519
Speaker 1: to hate a guy that seems to have everything going

1777
01:26:08,600 --> 01:26:10,800
Speaker 1: for him and it's not going anywhere but up for him,

1778
01:26:10,920 --> 01:26:13,519
Speaker 1: even at forty one years old, it's it's pretty up.

1779
01:26:13,600 --> 01:26:17,479
Speaker 1: Here's another thing. Five hundred yards against the Eagles. They

1780
01:26:17,520 --> 01:26:21,840
Speaker 1: had five starters out on offense. They had Cannon out,

1781
01:26:21,880 --> 01:26:25,320
Speaker 1: they had Edelman was out, Mitchell is out, and then

1782
01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:28,200
Speaker 1: Umu the other full backers out. They have all these

1783
01:26:28,240 --> 01:26:30,599
Speaker 1: guys out and they had five six hundred yards of offense.

1784
01:26:30,960 --> 01:26:34,240
Speaker 1: Unfortunately they lost. But he just finds you open guy

1785
01:26:34,360 --> 01:26:37,479
Speaker 1: because the system teaching read things so fast and quickly.

1786
01:26:37,960 --> 01:26:41,800
Speaker 1: Has was was the coaching Cincinnati, and he said, we

1787
01:26:41,920 --> 01:26:44,240
Speaker 1: developed some defenses that we thought would ketch them. He

1788
01:26:44,400 --> 01:26:47,280
Speaker 1: analyzed instantaneously. We're like looking at each other. Don't want

1789
01:26:47,320 --> 01:26:50,800
Speaker 1: to yeah about it. You're talking about Jim Haslett, the

1790
01:26:50,920 --> 01:26:54,800
Speaker 1: former Buffalo Bills linebackers now linebackers coach for Cincinnati and

1791
01:26:54,840 --> 01:26:57,559
Speaker 1: they're trying to come up. You're try and formulate that stuff,

1792
01:26:57,560 --> 01:27:00,200
Speaker 1: and none of them, none of it catches him. Um,

1793
01:27:00,439 --> 01:27:04,360
Speaker 1: if you unless you can dominate them physically upfront, you

1794
01:27:04,479 --> 01:27:07,000
Speaker 1: got no shot against that team. And they always seem

1795
01:27:07,040 --> 01:27:09,439
Speaker 1: to have enough guys to protect him for long enough,

1796
01:27:10,320 --> 01:27:12,360
Speaker 1: you would be like Will chamber Can creating some of

1797
01:27:12,400 --> 01:27:17,000
Speaker 1: the blue guys they bring on receivers. I know they're

1798
01:27:17,360 --> 01:27:22,040
Speaker 1: they're guys, They're just guys. And then your golf and

1799
01:27:22,120 --> 01:27:24,640
Speaker 1: then they had Woodhead. What's is five three? I mean,

1800
01:27:24,720 --> 01:27:28,360
Speaker 1: all these little tiny water bugs and they get it done.

1801
01:27:28,640 --> 01:27:31,800
Speaker 1: They have a Polish guy, they had an Italian guy,

1802
01:27:32,120 --> 01:27:35,400
Speaker 1: they had a Jewish guy, English guys they didn't have.

1803
01:27:35,840 --> 01:27:38,240
Speaker 1: Their problem is though they don't have any Greeks like

1804
01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:41,920

1907
01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:50,519
Speaker 1: right in. Yeah. By the way, we want to talk

1908
01:32:50,560 --> 01:32:52,800
Speaker 1: about the new expansion to the training center, but Steve

1909
01:32:52,840 --> 01:32:56,040

1911
01:33:02,080 --> 01:33:04,400
Speaker 1: you know what, we're my name on it. We're working

1912
01:33:04,479 --> 01:33:07,439
Speaker 1: on it. You know, there's there's several names, Steve, Steve's

1913
01:33:07,479 --> 01:33:10,280
Speaker 1: names definitely high on the list. So we'll, uh, we

1914
01:33:10,280 --> 01:33:11,640
Speaker 1: don't want to commit to that. We don't want his

1915
01:33:11,720 --> 01:33:13,880
Speaker 1: family to get too excited. Yet we were talking about

1916
01:33:13,880 --> 01:33:16,320
Speaker 1: it give us a sense of the purpose of you know,

1917
01:33:16,400 --> 01:33:18,880
Speaker 1: expanding the facilities in that way. We were talking about

1918
01:33:18,920 --> 01:33:21,559
Speaker 1: how free agents and how also the league is evolving constantly.

1919
01:33:21,640 --> 01:33:23,599
Speaker 1: But what are the some of the nuts and bolts

1920
01:33:23,640 --> 01:33:29,519
Speaker 1: behind expanding the training facility? What starts with Terry and

1921
01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:32,160
Speaker 1: Kim to be honest with you, when we got here,

1922
01:33:32,240 --> 01:33:34,799
Speaker 1: When I got here and Sean, uh, they were finishing

1923
01:33:34,920 --> 01:33:37,840
Speaker 1: up the training room and remodeling that and catching it up,

1924
01:33:37,920 --> 01:33:40,680
Speaker 1: and we really talked about and we've got like a

1925
01:33:40,800 --> 01:33:43,800
Speaker 1: performance We've got athletic trainers like every team, we've got

1926
01:33:43,880 --> 01:33:46,320
Speaker 1: strength and conditioning staff. But we also put a lot

1927
01:33:46,360 --> 01:33:50,600
Speaker 1: of attention to performance in sports science, and it is

1928
01:33:50,680 --> 01:33:52,680
Speaker 1: for the team, but it starts with the individual and

1929
01:33:52,880 --> 01:33:57,160
Speaker 1: we're trying to you know, evolve programs that you know,

1930
01:33:57,240 --> 01:34:02,040
Speaker 1: everybody's got different things. Quarterbacks do certain things, skills, lineman, kickers.

1931
01:34:02,680 --> 01:34:05,880
Speaker 1: You know, some guys need float pods, some guys need uh,

1932
01:34:06,240 --> 01:34:09,799
Speaker 1: you know, the sleep stuff. Some guys want um uh, yoga,

1933
01:34:10,240 --> 01:34:12,800
Speaker 1: you know, pilates, whatever. We're trying to come up with

1934
01:34:13,000 --> 01:34:15,920
Speaker 1: various things to you know, encourage these guys to come

1935
01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:19,280
Speaker 1: here and stay here and again if we can lengthen

1936
01:34:19,360 --> 01:34:22,200
Speaker 1: their careers, you know, I think that's attractive for them

1937
01:34:22,439 --> 01:34:25,120
Speaker 1: as they you know, potential free agents choose where they

1938
01:34:25,200 --> 01:34:27,240
Speaker 1: want to you know, play, you know, their facilities. But

1939
01:34:27,400 --> 01:34:30,120
Speaker 1: you mentioned sports science. This this team, this franchise has

1940
01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:32,720
Speaker 1: added several people the last couple of years just in

1941
01:34:32,800 --> 01:34:34,600
Speaker 1: that area, right, Can you talk about that what they

1942
01:34:34,720 --> 01:34:36,960
Speaker 1: do and how they work with the training staff and

1943
01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:39,680
Speaker 1: the strengthen conditioning staff as well. Yeah, you know um

1944
01:34:40,280 --> 01:34:43,720
Speaker 1: GPS stuff picked up, you know, five, six, seven years ago.

1945
01:34:43,920 --> 01:34:46,880
Speaker 1: Is it really where it was a handful of teams

1946
01:34:46,920 --> 01:34:49,919
Speaker 1: doing it and now everybody's doing it the moment monitoring

1947
01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:52,880
Speaker 1: the movement, the you know, the speed, the burst and

1948
01:34:53,120 --> 01:34:55,200
Speaker 1: we try and do that just because you want to

1949
01:34:55,280 --> 01:34:59,560
Speaker 1: build guys up properly, especially as you're you know, climaxing

1950
01:34:59,600 --> 01:35:03,200
Speaker 1: to get for the season and so it's it's watching guys.

1951
01:35:03,240 --> 01:35:06,760
Speaker 1: You may have some injuries at receiver, and now some

1952
01:35:06,920 --> 01:35:09,160
Speaker 1: of the guys that are were taking this number of reps.

1953
01:35:09,280 --> 01:35:11,360
Speaker 1: You don't want to let it jump, you know, you

1954
01:35:11,439 --> 01:35:13,759
Speaker 1: know a crazy spike. That's when the soft tissue stuff,

1955
01:35:13,800 --> 01:35:15,840
Speaker 1: So which most of that is You're always going to

1956
01:35:15,920 --> 01:35:17,760
Speaker 1: have the breaks and things like that, but it's to

1957
01:35:17,840 --> 01:35:20,880
Speaker 1: eliminate soft tissue. Yeah, pulled muscles, that kind of thing,

1958
01:35:20,960 --> 01:35:23,320
Speaker 1: and dehydration and all the stuff that comes from those

1959
01:35:23,360 --> 01:35:26,000
Speaker 1: other symptoms. Yep, talk to us a little bit about

1960
01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:28,280
Speaker 1: you know, when's this gonna happen. I mean, it's gonna

1961
01:35:28,360 --> 01:35:30,360
Speaker 1: take up a chunk of Spart Park. In fact, my

1962
01:35:30,479 --> 01:35:32,360
Speaker 1: parking space is now not gonna be available to me.

1963
01:35:32,400 --> 01:35:34,160
Speaker 1: I'll just go on record to seeing there right now.

1964
01:35:34,640 --> 01:35:36,200
Speaker 1: Talk to us a little bit. We're getting stuff on

1965
01:35:36,240 --> 01:35:39,040
Speaker 1: Twitter about you know, how's this construction going to affect

1966
01:35:39,080 --> 01:35:42,840
Speaker 1: game day stuff? And because it's it's big, it is big,

1967
01:35:43,840 --> 01:35:46,439
Speaker 1: it will you know, everything has a low inconvenience and

1968
01:35:47,040 --> 01:35:50,880
Speaker 1: we're looking at it as short term pain for long

1969
01:35:51,040 --> 01:35:54,559
Speaker 1: term gain. And you know we've condensed our weight room,

1970
01:35:54,720 --> 01:35:58,120
Speaker 1: but they've already set up a temporary wall and it'll

1971
01:35:58,120 --> 01:36:00,800
Speaker 1: be fine. It's gonna work well. Will be at our

1972
01:36:00,880 --> 01:36:04,760
Speaker 1: smallest roster during the season anyway, So the timing as well,

1973
01:36:04,840 --> 01:36:07,120
Speaker 1: and we wanted to do this to give them time

1974
01:36:07,160 --> 01:36:09,719
Speaker 1: to build this thing to be ready by next April

1975
01:36:10,120 --> 01:36:12,600
Speaker 1: when we're you know, back to a full roster and

1976
01:36:12,800 --> 01:36:14,639
Speaker 1: ready to start our office. You've got all that money

1977
01:36:14,680 --> 01:36:17,800
Speaker 1: to spend on free agency. Yeah, one hundred percent. It

1978
01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:22,000
Speaker 1: will definitely be recruiting. Man, It'll definitely help as we

1979
01:36:22,080 --> 01:36:24,240
Speaker 1: do that. Even when we went through it this year,

1980
01:36:24,400 --> 01:36:27,200
Speaker 1: you know, we were able to you know, a talk

1981
01:36:27,240 --> 01:36:29,960
Speaker 1: about Buffalo and you know the culture and what a

1982
01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:33,200
Speaker 1: football town this is. But be what Terry and Kim

1983
01:36:33,320 --> 01:36:35,640
Speaker 1: have done. Uh, and you know, the guys that were

1984
01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:37,439
Speaker 1: able to visit or some that weren't able to send

1985
01:36:37,479 --> 01:36:40,160
Speaker 1: them pictures or videos of what we have here and

1986
01:36:40,320 --> 01:36:43,000
Speaker 1: everything is really the best of the best. If you

1987
01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:46,160
Speaker 1: wanted to say, maybe we didn't have the greatest weight room,

1988
01:36:46,640 --> 01:36:49,000
Speaker 1: it was still a very good one. It's now going

1989
01:36:49,080 --> 01:36:52,160
Speaker 1: to be probably the best one. In the square feet

1990
01:36:52,160 --> 01:36:54,840
Speaker 1: of space. What will be in there? What facilities will

1991
01:36:54,880 --> 01:36:56,479
Speaker 1: you have there? Yeah, you know it'll be a lot

1992
01:36:56,560 --> 01:36:58,320
Speaker 1: of the same stuff, but you'll have more room we'll have.

1993
01:36:59,120 --> 01:37:02,280
Speaker 1: We'll have more squat racks, um, and guys can do

1994
01:37:02,439 --> 01:37:05,720
Speaker 1: more things. There's it will allow Eric Siano and his

1995
01:37:05,840 --> 01:37:10,120
Speaker 1: staff to branch out and have different guys doing different

1996
01:37:10,160 --> 01:37:13,160
Speaker 1: things without having to wait so long to you know,

1997
01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:15,000
Speaker 1: to jump on a squat rack or you know, a

1998
01:37:15,080 --> 01:37:18,240
Speaker 1: bench press or whatever. We also will have turf um

1999
01:37:18,320 --> 01:37:21,240
Speaker 1: that guys can warm up in, you know, and um,

2000
01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:23,640
Speaker 1: you know, we'll have video stuff that they can use

2001
01:37:23,720 --> 01:37:25,960
Speaker 1: that as well. But there's it's just gonna give us

2002
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:32,960
Speaker 1: more room. We're gonna have extra rooms for like massage, um, yoga, pilates. Uh.

2003
01:37:33,120 --> 01:37:35,080
Speaker 1: We have things now that are kind of crammed in

2004
01:37:35,120 --> 01:37:37,599
Speaker 1: a small area for like sleep pods and float pods,

2005
01:37:37,680 --> 01:37:40,280
Speaker 1: and uh, we don't have a hyperparic chamber, but we're

2006
01:37:40,320 --> 01:37:43,000
Speaker 1: going to add that. So we're still looking at all

2007
01:37:43,240 --> 01:37:45,600
Speaker 1: what what we're gonna put in it, but uh, we

2008
01:37:45,720 --> 01:37:48,439
Speaker 1: got a great plan and look forward to being done that.

2009
01:37:48,560 --> 01:37:50,920
Speaker 1: What does sleep A sleep that sounds like something that

2010
01:37:51,000 --> 01:37:54,280
Speaker 1: maybe other Bills employees might be interested in. Yeah, are

2011
01:37:54,320 --> 01:37:58,760
Speaker 1: you speaking for yourself? It's you know, the way I

2012
01:37:59,040 --> 01:38:01,000
Speaker 1: think of it, and I'm I'm not the smartest guy,

2013
01:38:01,040 --> 01:38:03,040
Speaker 1: but I think it's like plugging yourself phone in. It's

2014
01:38:03,160 --> 01:38:05,680
Speaker 1: it's you need, you need a charge. And you know

2015
01:38:05,760 --> 01:38:08,639
Speaker 1: when you these guys have been running around, it's there's

2016
01:38:08,800 --> 01:38:10,880
Speaker 1: proven science that says, hey, you don't want to get

2017
01:38:10,920 --> 01:38:13,160
Speaker 1: too much sleep, but a nice twenty minute. So it's

2018
01:38:13,200 --> 01:38:15,720
Speaker 1: a time thing. Uh, it's an apparatus. You put it,

2019
01:38:15,760 --> 01:38:18,040
Speaker 1: pop it over your head, you lay back and it

2020
01:38:18,200 --> 01:38:20,799
Speaker 1: wakes you up, you know after something. A little vibrates

2021
01:38:20,840 --> 01:38:24,599
Speaker 1: and and a little sound and it's a twenty minute. Uh.

2022
01:38:24,720 --> 01:38:26,599
Speaker 1: It's kind of a recharge. And that's that's the way

2023
01:38:26,640 --> 01:38:28,559
Speaker 1: I view It's like going plugging yourself phone. That's going

2024
01:38:28,600 --> 01:38:31,080
Speaker 1: in my next contract. I've been trying to sell my

2025
01:38:31,160 --> 01:38:34,080
Speaker 1: wife on there. A minute nap concept for me is awesome.

2026
01:38:34,400 --> 01:38:37,200
Speaker 1: The problem is she says, twenty turns into an hour. Right,

2027
01:38:37,760 --> 01:38:41,120
Speaker 1: Sometimes I wake up so and tell me one word

2028
01:38:41,160 --> 01:38:44,400
Speaker 1: thing the sleep pods and in the what is that?

2029
01:38:44,640 --> 01:38:47,920
Speaker 1: So it's, um, it's this again, another apparatus. I actually

2030
01:38:48,000 --> 01:38:50,760
Speaker 1: tried this, uh a couple weeks before the draft. I

2031
01:38:50,840 --> 01:38:51,960
Speaker 1: was like, you know, I got a lot on my plate,

2032
01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:54,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try this. It was it was cool. Um,

2033
01:38:54,600 --> 01:38:58,439
Speaker 1: so century deprivation, it's you lay and you float in

2034
01:38:58,479 --> 01:39:01,439
Speaker 1: this water. It's got a high amount of salt um.

2035
01:39:01,479 --> 01:39:04,559
Speaker 1: I don't know all the chemical but you basically late

2036
01:39:04,800 --> 01:39:07,000
Speaker 1: and you pull this thing and there's kind of there's

2037
01:39:07,040 --> 01:39:09,559
Speaker 1: some sound like a cover over it a cover over.

2038
01:39:09,640 --> 01:39:11,559
Speaker 1: You pull it over, same thing. You lay in there

2039
01:39:11,600 --> 01:39:14,280
Speaker 1: for twenty minutes and you just float and it's it's

2040
01:39:14,320 --> 01:39:16,800
Speaker 1: basically like you're laying on a cloud. So it's big.

2041
01:39:17,240 --> 01:39:19,080
Speaker 1: It's a big big, it's it's kind of big. You

2042
01:39:19,400 --> 01:39:22,400
Speaker 1: just go in there and your your full body is

2043
01:39:22,520 --> 01:39:25,160
Speaker 1: in there. It's a it's a round circle and you

2044
01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:27,200
Speaker 1: you set it in the water. The water is like

2045
01:39:27,600 --> 01:39:30,800
Speaker 1: you know, a foot these black and you just lay back.

2046
01:39:30,960 --> 01:39:33,040
Speaker 1: Nothing's hit in the bottom. It's like you're floating on

2047
01:39:33,080 --> 01:39:35,519
Speaker 1: a cloud for twenty minutes. And there's some sounds and

2048
01:39:35,600 --> 01:39:37,519
Speaker 1: stuff you can turn on just to kind of put

2049
01:39:37,600 --> 01:39:39,920
Speaker 1: you like in a rain forest or whatever. But my table,

2050
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:44,360
Speaker 1: my Christmas list is grow Brandon. When you get these

2051
01:39:44,479 --> 01:39:47,800
Speaker 1: these facilities and get this expension, Uh, will the bills

2052
01:39:47,880 --> 01:39:49,880
Speaker 1: be at par with the rest of the NFL or

2053
01:39:49,880 --> 01:39:52,880
Speaker 1: ahead of the curve a little bit? It's definitely gonna

2054
01:39:52,920 --> 01:39:55,800
Speaker 1: be h I would be if we're not the best.

2055
01:39:55,880 --> 01:39:58,200
Speaker 1: We're definitely gonna be top three. You don't always know

2056
01:39:58,280 --> 01:40:01,800
Speaker 1: what everybody's doing, but you know, Kim, Kim and Terry

2057
01:40:02,000 --> 01:40:04,960
Speaker 1: really they want to be best in class in everything

2058
01:40:05,040 --> 01:40:08,840
Speaker 1: we do here, and I'd find it hard to believe

2059
01:40:08,880 --> 01:40:12,200
Speaker 1: there's a better facility and set up for not only

2060
01:40:12,600 --> 01:40:14,840
Speaker 1: players individually, but what we can do here as a team.

2061
01:40:15,120 --> 01:40:17,120
Speaker 1: All Right, So you've got the team is over in

2062
01:40:17,560 --> 01:40:20,439
Speaker 1: Saint John Fisher. They're coming over here tonight. What and

2063
01:40:20,560 --> 01:40:22,639
Speaker 1: we were talking to we're laughing about Yeah, we don't

2064
01:40:22,640 --> 01:40:24,040
Speaker 1: want to talk about any of this training stuff. We

2065
01:40:24,040 --> 01:40:27,080
Speaker 1: want to talk about the quarterbacks. But everything everything's kind

2066
01:40:27,120 --> 01:40:29,840
Speaker 1: of right on schedule now with the team, with the quarterbacks,

2067
01:40:29,880 --> 01:40:33,040
Speaker 1: the rotations and the and all the other position groups.

2068
01:40:33,840 --> 01:40:36,640
Speaker 1: Plus we're getting some stuff on our show. We want

2069
01:40:36,680 --> 01:40:38,439
Speaker 1: to know about guys like Brandon Lafel and all the

2070
01:40:38,560 --> 01:40:40,680
Speaker 1: free agents out there and how likely that all that

2071
01:40:40,720 --> 01:40:42,400
Speaker 1: stuff is. So what can you tell us about where

2072

01:40:45,360 --> 01:40:48,479
Speaker 1: who's not, who could be here, and how the quarterback

2074
01:40:48,680 --> 01:40:52,400
Speaker 1: race is going? Yeah? Um, firstly that yeah, you just

2075
01:40:52,479 --> 01:40:56,240
Speaker 1: go ahead, man, you guys get at the floor. I've

2076
01:40:56,280 --> 01:40:59,599
Speaker 1: got to kill. Um. You know, first of all, it's

2077
01:40:59,600 --> 01:41:03,160
Speaker 1: going well. Everything at Saint John Fisher again has been

2078
01:41:03,160 --> 01:41:06,160
Speaker 1: a great setup. Uh, knock on wood. We've we've got

2079
01:41:06,200 --> 01:41:08,400
Speaker 1: a few you know alleys as I like to call him,

2080
01:41:08,439 --> 01:41:12,320
Speaker 1: But um, nothing major. And Nate Breski and his staff

2081
01:41:12,360 --> 01:41:13,880
Speaker 1: have done a great job of trying to get these

2082
01:41:13,920 --> 01:41:16,479
Speaker 1: guys back on the field. But um, you know, start

2083
01:41:16,520 --> 01:41:19,640
Speaker 1: with the quarterbacks. We're on Paul run plan. There's I know,

2084
01:41:19,760 --> 01:41:23,439
Speaker 1: there's people tracking every throw and who gets what in

2085
01:41:23,520 --> 01:41:27,160
Speaker 1: this period. Um, you know, if they think something's changed,

2086
01:41:27,200 --> 01:41:29,840
Speaker 1: nothing's changed. This is we We have a plan all

2087
01:41:29,880 --> 01:41:33,320
Speaker 1: the way through Game one against Carolina next week. So um,

2088
01:41:33,439 --> 01:41:36,200
Speaker 1: nothing has changed. Nothing will. I know, there's you know,

2089
01:41:36,240 --> 01:41:38,759
Speaker 1: people in our buildings. Any change that's happened has been scheduled.

2090
01:41:38,760 --> 01:41:42,400
Speaker 1: It's been scheduled, started. Nobody is the lead dog, nobody's

2091
01:41:42,640 --> 01:41:45,920
Speaker 1: nobody's fallen off the map. Everything. Uh, you know, it's

2092
01:41:45,960 --> 01:41:48,479
Speaker 1: like anything sometimes when you go play golf, sometimes you

2093
01:41:48,520 --> 01:41:51,840
Speaker 1: play better than others. Sometimes Aja plays better than Nate

2094
01:41:52,080 --> 01:41:55,360
Speaker 1: and Josh, and sometimes it's flipped. They've all had their

2095
01:41:55,479 --> 01:41:57,600
Speaker 1: days and that just that's the way it goes in

2096
01:41:58,000 --> 01:42:00,960
Speaker 1: a good healthy competition. The quarter back things interesting, there's

2097
01:42:00,960 --> 01:42:03,280
Speaker 1: so much there's so much focus on that that there

2098
01:42:03,320 --> 01:42:06,040
Speaker 1: are other things happening in this camp that get my attention.

2099
01:42:06,080 --> 01:42:08,400
Speaker 1: Steve and I talk about it a lot. For instance,

2100
01:42:08,600 --> 01:42:10,799
Speaker 1: I told Steve this early it seems like every practice

2101
01:42:11,040 --> 01:42:14,800
Speaker 1: in Rochester so far, undrafted rookie free agent wide receiver

2102
01:42:14,960 --> 01:42:17,200
Speaker 1: Cam Phillips makes a play and you see stuff like that,

2103
01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:19,120
Speaker 1: and like there's something happening here, right. Do you see

2104
01:42:19,160 --> 01:42:21,360
Speaker 1: things like that? You must as well. Yeah, you're guys,

2105
01:42:21,439 --> 01:42:25,760
Speaker 1: you definitely do again. We don't care where how guys

2106
01:42:25,840 --> 01:42:28,240
Speaker 1: got on this team. They're all they're all equal, so

2107
01:42:28,400 --> 01:42:31,599
Speaker 1: to speak. And a guy like Cam Phillips wasn't drafted,

2108
01:42:32,240 --> 01:42:35,120
Speaker 1: but he hasn't. We promised all those guys day one,

2109
01:42:35,320 --> 01:42:39,360
Speaker 1: drafted or not, you will get every opportunity to make

2110
01:42:39,680 --> 01:42:42,680
Speaker 1: to earn one of those fifty three positions. And to

2111
01:42:42,840 --> 01:42:45,920
Speaker 1: your point, Cam, to this point, he did a great

2112
01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:47,960
Speaker 1: job in spring and he you know, he's picked up

2113
01:42:48,040 --> 01:42:50,599
Speaker 1: right where he left off and has made a lot

2114
01:42:50,640 --> 01:42:53,240
Speaker 1: of the thing that stood out to me, the contested balls,

2115
01:42:53,760 --> 01:42:55,599
Speaker 1: you know, when he's had guys on him, though sometimes

2116
01:42:55,640 --> 01:42:57,559
Speaker 1: can be the hard ones. A lot of guys can

2117
01:42:57,600 --> 01:43:00,280
Speaker 1: get open, but they don't always make it. You know

2118
01:43:00,360 --> 01:43:02,760
Speaker 1: that contested catching. He's really done a nice job with that.

2119
01:43:02,920 --> 01:43:05,040
Speaker 1: When you look at your receiving group and you look

2120
01:43:05,160 --> 01:43:07,760
Speaker 1: and you will of course have the decisions to make

2121
01:43:07,800 --> 01:43:10,080
Speaker 1: the final fifty three man roster. Do you look for

2122
01:43:10,240 --> 01:43:12,320
Speaker 1: different roles to find roles for each of them? In

2123
01:43:12,400 --> 01:43:13,880
Speaker 1: other words, you need the same type or do you

2124
01:43:13,960 --> 01:43:16,240
Speaker 1: need like five or six different types of fill out

2125
01:43:16,240 --> 01:43:18,920
Speaker 1: your roster? Yeah, you're you're looking for the best. But um,

2126
01:43:19,360 --> 01:43:22,639
Speaker 1: you definitely don't want all guys that are all six

2127
01:43:22,720 --> 01:43:24,680
Speaker 1: foot four, and you know you need the guys the

2128
01:43:25,560 --> 01:43:27,840
Speaker 1: the quick in and out, you know, the slots. Um,

2129
01:43:27,960 --> 01:43:30,200
Speaker 1: you want some speed if you got that. So in

2130
01:43:30,320 --> 01:43:33,880
Speaker 1: a perfect world you got various flavors. Um. But again

2131
01:43:34,160 --> 01:43:37,120
Speaker 1: we're going to choose the best, you know, five six,

2132
01:43:37,240 --> 01:43:39,640
Speaker 1: however many end up you know that we keep for

2133
01:43:39,680 --> 01:43:42,280
Speaker 1: this for the fifty three. So what's the what's the

2134
01:43:42,360 --> 01:43:45,120
Speaker 1: story with tonight's practice? I mean, is there anything significant?

2135
01:43:45,720 --> 01:43:49,759
Speaker 1: Um the you know, is this a significant practice because

2136
01:43:49,800 --> 01:43:51,600
Speaker 1: it's in the stadium or is it just is this,

2137
01:43:51,920 --> 01:43:54,599
Speaker 1: you know, something you're doing for the fans, although yeah,

2138
01:43:54,720 --> 01:43:57,080
Speaker 1: they appreciate it. I mean, is there something significant football wise,

2139
01:43:57,120 --> 01:44:00,240
Speaker 1: as you're looking for tonight or is this strictly let's

2140
01:44:00,240 --> 01:44:02,479
Speaker 1: get these guys out of Saint John Fisher for a minute. Yeah,

2141
01:44:02,479 --> 01:44:04,920
Speaker 1: I think it, you do. It is a chance to

2142
01:44:05,160 --> 01:44:07,919
Speaker 1: let these guys get home. A change of scenery sometimes

2143
01:44:08,320 --> 01:44:09,720
Speaker 1: gives you a little bit out of that because you

2144
01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:12,800
Speaker 1: can get in a rut of just everyday practice at

2145
01:44:12,800 --> 01:44:15,360
Speaker 1: the same time, so we've had all these morning practices,

2146
01:44:15,400 --> 01:44:18,080
Speaker 1: this flips to the night back in our stadium, gives

2147
01:44:18,160 --> 01:44:20,240
Speaker 1: them a field we want them. We want to own

2148
01:44:20,320 --> 01:44:23,400
Speaker 1: the stadium. We want to defend our turf. Shaun did

2149
01:44:23,439 --> 01:44:26,160
Speaker 1: a lot of Friday practices there just to get guys

2150
01:44:26,520 --> 01:44:29,559
Speaker 1: familiar with this is our space. We want to defend

2151
01:44:29,640 --> 01:44:32,760
Speaker 1: our turf, defend our dirt. And so this is the

2152
01:44:32,920 --> 01:44:34,960
Speaker 1: chance for a lot of guys their first time to

2153
01:44:35,120 --> 01:44:38,240
Speaker 1: come in here and since not only what the field

2154
01:44:38,320 --> 01:44:40,200
Speaker 1: is like, but what our fans are like here in Buffalo.

2155
01:44:40,240 --> 01:44:41,680
Speaker 1: And I can speak to that as a player. It

2156
01:44:41,840 --> 01:44:44,080
Speaker 1: is true because when you start, we practiced in there

2157
01:44:44,080 --> 01:44:46,479
Speaker 1: a lot because we didn't have this kind of facility

2158
01:44:46,520 --> 01:44:49,720
Speaker 1: back way back. There is something to be said for

2159
01:44:49,840 --> 01:44:52,840
Speaker 1: being so familiar on that field and saying they this

2160
01:44:53,000 --> 01:44:56,880
Speaker 1: you know, really comfortable there, you know, you really feel

2161
01:44:56,920 --> 01:44:59,240
Speaker 1: like and I think that's some fans made kind of

2162
01:44:59,280 --> 01:45:01,439
Speaker 1: poop poo that. Yeah, I think it's really smart to

2163
01:45:01,640 --> 01:45:05,000
Speaker 1: say listen because we had a locker room over there

2164
01:45:05,040 --> 01:45:07,280
Speaker 1: too and everything, so it was really home. Home is home,

2165
01:45:07,800 --> 01:45:09,960
Speaker 1: and it's not home just because the fans are cheering

2166
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:14,080
Speaker 1: on your favor. It's huge. It's home, you know, at

2167
01:45:14,160 --> 01:45:17,559
Speaker 1: a lower, a deeper level, because that's you know, it's

2168
01:45:17,560 --> 01:45:22,160
Speaker 1: like your living room. And two, we generally practice on grass. Uh,

2169
01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:25,400
Speaker 1: this will be the first on turf and every stadium

2170
01:45:25,720 --> 01:45:28,920
Speaker 1: even when you have the services like we have the

2171
01:45:29,080 --> 01:45:32,639
Speaker 1: artificial stuff um that you know, they've all really improved

2172
01:45:32,720 --> 01:45:34,960
Speaker 1: from back when you know, the seaman you were playing

2173
01:45:35,000 --> 01:45:41,600
Speaker 1: on asphalt whatever. But uh, anyhow, this will be the

2174
01:45:41,680 --> 01:45:43,559
Speaker 1: first chance for them to get, you know, a feel

2175
01:45:43,600 --> 01:45:46,360
Speaker 1: and what type of grip they're gonna want, um, whether

2176
01:45:46,439 --> 01:45:49,120
Speaker 1: the field's wet or whether it's dry, because it does matter,

2177
01:45:49,200 --> 01:45:50,920
Speaker 1: you know, when you're coming in out of these cuts.

2178
01:45:51,120 --> 01:45:53,080
Speaker 1: You don't want too much traction, but you want enough

2179
01:45:53,080 --> 01:45:55,120
Speaker 1: to be able to give in and out. So we've

2180
01:45:55,160 --> 01:45:58,760
Speaker 1: had this conversation a lot and about the offensive line.

2181
01:45:58,800 --> 01:46:04,400
Speaker 1: You were forced Eric would unexpected Richie Incognito actually decided

2182
01:46:04,439 --> 01:46:06,360
Speaker 1: he probably was going to retire, had some physically they

2183
01:46:06,400 --> 01:46:08,720
Speaker 1: wanted to come. You know, Richie had some issues. Um

2184
01:46:08,840 --> 01:46:13,000
Speaker 1: and I've I've said, you know, outside of Buffalo, there's

2185
01:46:13,040 --> 01:46:15,280
Speaker 1: been a lot of criticism about how you know this

2186
01:46:15,479 --> 01:46:17,439
Speaker 1: is going to be a real struggle for the entire team,

2187
01:46:17,520 --> 01:46:19,519
Speaker 1: that you know they lost your left tackle. Well you

2188
01:46:19,600 --> 01:46:22,160
Speaker 1: know that left tackle didn't start eleven games last year.

2189
01:46:22,800 --> 01:46:24,839
Speaker 1: The guy we have now, did you know Dion Dacas

2190
01:46:24,880 --> 01:46:27,000
Speaker 1: did talk to us a little bit about center about

2191
01:46:27,120 --> 01:46:30,280
Speaker 1: left guard about that, and you know how big a

2192
01:46:30,360 --> 01:46:32,920
Speaker 1: loss was it that Eric would I think was significant,

2193
01:46:33,160 --> 01:46:35,760
Speaker 1: But you made s chaps Richie and Cognito has been

2194
01:46:35,800 --> 01:46:37,720
Speaker 1: my contentions like I don't know, I mean, he went

2195
01:46:37,760 --> 01:46:39,439
Speaker 1: to the Pro Bowl, but yeah, hey, I went to

2196
01:46:39,520 --> 01:46:40,920
Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl in a year that I didn't even

2197
01:46:41,040 --> 01:46:43,400
Speaker 1: cover a kick, you know, So, I mean the Pro

2198
01:46:43,479 --> 01:46:45,800
Speaker 1: bowls nice, But you know, I don't know that Richie

2199
01:46:45,880 --> 01:46:49,840
Speaker 1: Incognito was headed towards the lock as a starter anyway.

2200
01:46:49,840 --> 01:46:51,840
Speaker 1: So I'll talk a little bit about the strides you made,

2201
01:46:51,880 --> 01:46:53,840
Speaker 1: the concerns you had at the beginning of the off season,

2202
01:46:53,920 --> 01:46:55,880
Speaker 1: how you've addressed them at the offensive line. Yeah, I

2203
01:46:55,920 --> 01:46:58,960
Speaker 1: mean Eric's as we said, that was an unfortunate and

2204
01:47:00,040 --> 01:47:03,280
Speaker 1: he was the one guy that I extended last August

2205
01:47:03,360 --> 01:47:06,400
Speaker 1: to knowing that we may be you know, switching quarterbacks

2206
01:47:06,439 --> 01:47:09,400
Speaker 1: and was looking for a constant there. But um, that's

2207
01:47:09,840 --> 01:47:12,120
Speaker 1: as the nature of this game. As guys get injured,

2208
01:47:12,400 --> 01:47:15,559
Speaker 1: and so you know, we are having a competition there

2209
01:47:15,640 --> 01:47:18,479
Speaker 1: between Ryan Groy and Russell Bodine and both of them

2210
01:47:18,560 --> 01:47:21,400
Speaker 1: have their own strengths and weaknesses. And Sean's hold out

2211
01:47:21,439 --> 01:47:23,560
Speaker 1: Redman the other day too for playing really well. He

2212
01:47:23,960 --> 01:47:26,360
Speaker 1: has done a heck of a job and uh, he

2213
01:47:26,560 --> 01:47:30,040
Speaker 1: came in here and we've reshaped his body the you know,

2214
01:47:30,240 --> 01:47:32,439
Speaker 1: Eric Siano and those guys have really we want him

2215
01:47:32,439 --> 01:47:35,439
Speaker 1: to add more more beef and more good beef, more

2216
01:47:35,640 --> 01:47:38,960
Speaker 1: more muscle, and uh, he's really taking it on. He's

2217
01:47:39,000 --> 01:47:41,599
Speaker 1: a pro's pro. He's one of the first guys out

2218
01:47:41,680 --> 01:47:45,000
Speaker 1: there getting ready every day and we notice it. So Um,

2219
01:47:45,160 --> 01:47:48,120
Speaker 1: he's not backing down either. He doesn't have as much

2220
01:47:48,160 --> 01:47:50,000
Speaker 1: playing time or as much experience as the other two,

2221
01:47:50,680 --> 01:47:53,160
Speaker 1: but again he will fight and I know he's looking

2222
01:47:53,200 --> 01:47:54,920
Speaker 1: forward to showing what he can do when when we

2223
01:47:55,000 --> 01:47:58,360
Speaker 1: get out there and again. Um, you know, John Miller

2224
01:47:59,120 --> 01:48:00,960
Speaker 1: is back in the starting role. He's at right guard,

2225
01:48:01,040 --> 01:48:04,439
Speaker 1: and we moved Vlad over to Richie spot. Vlad you know,

2226
01:48:04,560 --> 01:48:07,200
Speaker 1: started I think thirteen games or twelve, I can't remember

2227
01:48:07,320 --> 01:48:10,559
Speaker 1: last years. Yeah, the majority, Yeah for sure. So, um,

2228
01:48:11,160 --> 01:48:13,720
Speaker 1: it's not the same line. But it's not like we're

2229
01:48:13,720 --> 01:48:15,640
Speaker 1: going out there. Dion, as you said, played most of

2230
01:48:15,640 --> 01:48:18,240
Speaker 1: the year at left tackle. I know nationally people are

2231
01:48:18,280 --> 01:48:21,880
Speaker 1: saying it's three linemen. Really it's two because Cordy missed

2232
01:48:22,000 --> 01:48:24,320
Speaker 1: most of the season and Jordan Mills started the whole

2233
01:48:24,360 --> 01:48:27,400
Speaker 1: year at right tackle. And um, he looks, you know,

2234
01:48:27,560 --> 01:48:30,200
Speaker 1: well on his way to doing that again this year. Bream.

2235
01:48:30,240 --> 01:48:33,040
Speaker 1: Tell me your thoughts on Connor McDermott, who gets everybody's

2236
01:48:33,040 --> 01:48:35,320
Speaker 1: attention because of his size, and I see him moving

2237
01:48:35,360 --> 01:48:37,280
Speaker 1: to the left side a little bit now. He could

2238
01:48:37,320 --> 01:48:40,679
Speaker 1: be a potential valuable swing tackle right you play either side. Yeah,

2239
01:48:40,720 --> 01:48:43,320
Speaker 1: he you know Connor h we got him off waivers

2240
01:48:43,479 --> 01:48:46,000
Speaker 1: last year, Um, you know at the fifty three cut.

2241
01:48:46,320 --> 01:48:48,760
Speaker 1: And that's the thing I you know, remember scotting him

2242
01:48:48,800 --> 01:48:51,640
Speaker 1: in college. He played mainly left at UCLA. UM, but

2243
01:48:51,840 --> 01:48:54,200
Speaker 1: he's he's gone back and forth, and you're looking for

2244
01:48:54,320 --> 01:48:57,040
Speaker 1: versatility with all these guys, and we're he will get

2245
01:48:57,160 --> 01:49:00,639
Speaker 1: opportunities as these games unfold at both left and right.

2246
01:49:01,160 --> 01:49:05,000
Speaker 1: Um as will Marshall Newhouse and and again, Uh, the

2247
01:49:05,120 --> 01:49:08,040
Speaker 1: guys that aren't starting those those next few the verse

2248
01:49:08,160 --> 01:49:10,439
Speaker 1: Chili is gonna be key to who's up on game day,

2249
01:49:10,479 --> 01:49:13,560
Speaker 1: you know, center guards and and so forth. So a

2250
01:49:13,680 --> 01:49:16,439
Speaker 1: lot to be decided once we get started next week.

2251
01:49:16,560 --> 01:49:20,880
Speaker 1: Versus Carolina on defense a week into camp. Any observations

2252
01:49:20,880 --> 01:49:22,800
Speaker 1: on Tremine Edmunds, you're other first rounder? What do you

2253
01:49:22,960 --> 01:49:25,360
Speaker 1: what do you see? Yeah, you know Tremaine. Um, he

2254
01:49:25,560 --> 01:49:28,559
Speaker 1: works so hard and the guys really rallied around him,

2255
01:49:28,640 --> 01:49:31,760
Speaker 1: and uh, I think he's been pressing, you know, and

2256
01:49:31,880 --> 01:49:34,320
Speaker 1: and and then he makes that pick, and I think

2257
01:49:34,360 --> 01:49:36,040
Speaker 1: he was kind of I got this, you know, you know,

2258
01:49:36,880 --> 01:49:38,760
Speaker 1: is kind of like you're you're waiting for something to happen.

2259
01:49:38,880 --> 01:49:41,320
Speaker 1: Because the very next day he almost had a couple

2260
01:49:41,439 --> 01:49:43,800
Speaker 1: more picks. He had one, but he tipped a ball

2261
01:49:43,840 --> 01:49:47,320
Speaker 1: and Alban had two. And um, I think the more experience,

2262
01:49:47,640 --> 01:49:50,200
Speaker 1: the more calm he is. The quarterback of that defense.

2263
01:49:50,320 --> 01:49:53,080
Speaker 1: He has got a lot on his plate and We've

2264
01:49:53,080 --> 01:49:55,720
Speaker 1: asked the veterans around him to help handle some other

2265
01:49:55,760 --> 01:49:58,400
Speaker 1: things that maybe a middle linebacker would do, just so

2266
01:49:58,600 --> 01:50:00,880
Speaker 1: that he can you know, at the end of the day,

2267
01:50:01,160 --> 01:50:03,920
Speaker 1: he needs experience on the field, and this will be

2268
01:50:03,960 --> 01:50:07,639
Speaker 1: another step. Next week a game against another unfamiliar opponent

2269
01:50:07,840 --> 01:50:10,240
Speaker 1: will be a next step. This whole preseason, you'd like

2270
01:50:10,320 --> 01:50:13,880
Speaker 1: to see him taking strides at the middle linebackers in

2271
01:50:13,920 --> 01:50:16,400
Speaker 1: the back end of your defense. Um, it's been interesting

2272
01:50:16,439 --> 01:50:18,760
Speaker 1: to watch a pretty spirited battle for the nickel corner job.

2273
01:50:18,840 --> 01:50:21,000
Speaker 1: Can you talk about that please? Yeah? You know, Um,

2274
01:50:21,280 --> 01:50:24,599
Speaker 1: we brought Philip Gaines in here, who has played inside

2275
01:50:24,640 --> 01:50:27,360
Speaker 1: and outside and as an experienced player, and then we

2276
01:50:27,479 --> 01:50:31,080
Speaker 1: drafted Terren Johnson at a weaver and those guys have

2277
01:50:31,240 --> 01:50:34,680
Speaker 1: battled and it's gonna be a very good one. You know.

2278
01:50:34,800 --> 01:50:40,400
Speaker 1: I would say Terrence probably more of just a nickel.

2279
01:50:40,479 --> 01:50:43,320
Speaker 1: He can do outside, you know, I see him more

2280
01:50:43,560 --> 01:50:45,720
Speaker 1: just an inside. I see Philip with a little more

2281
01:50:45,800 --> 01:50:48,639
Speaker 1: versatility inside and out. But it will be a good

2282
01:50:48,680 --> 01:50:50,960
Speaker 1: battle for those for those two guys, and we'll see

2283
01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:54,560
Speaker 1: what happens. Our whole secondary it's very competitive, you know.

2284
01:50:54,640 --> 01:50:59,559
Speaker 1: I know, Micah and Jordan are back Raphael Bush has

2285
01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:02,000
Speaker 1: really done the heck of a job, made a great pick,

2286
01:51:02,320 --> 01:51:04,200
Speaker 1: you know, one of the days in one of our

2287
01:51:05,000 --> 01:51:08,040
Speaker 1: red zone periods. But um, it's gonna be a battle.

2288
01:51:08,160 --> 01:51:10,920
Speaker 1: And even the guys behind them, uh, Siran Neil who

2289
01:51:10,960 --> 01:51:16,240
Speaker 1: we drafted, Dean Marlowe and the mccraie um are all

2290
01:51:16,960 --> 01:51:19,599
Speaker 1: in a heated battle. And again we're getting them ready

2291
01:51:19,800 --> 01:51:22,320
Speaker 1: for the test. The real test will start when we

2292
01:51:22,400 --> 01:51:24,639
Speaker 1: get in these games. You know, these again, these unfamiliar

2293
01:51:24,680 --> 01:51:27,320
Speaker 1: opponents a week into camping about a little bit less

2294
01:51:27,320 --> 01:51:29,599
Speaker 1: than two weeks ago back in Rochester. Do you ever

2295
01:51:29,840 --> 01:51:31,880
Speaker 1: when you're walking around down there, do you ever think yourself,

2296
01:51:32,000 --> 01:51:33,760
Speaker 1: that's why we're here, you know, because people say you

2297
01:51:34,040 --> 01:51:36,519
Speaker 1: can do everything there on your own site and what

2298
01:51:36,680 --> 01:51:38,519
Speaker 1: twenty two teams do it at home now and don't

2299
01:51:38,520 --> 01:51:40,679
Speaker 1: go off. But what do you see when you're making

2300
01:51:40,720 --> 01:51:42,920
Speaker 1: your way around Saint John Fisher that makes you think,

2301
01:51:42,960 --> 01:51:45,800
Speaker 1: I'm glad we're here, I'm glad we're practicing down here. Yeah,

2302
01:51:45,840 --> 01:51:48,439
Speaker 1: you don't have that. Everybody didn't have that rush when

2303
01:51:48,520 --> 01:51:50,679
Speaker 1: they get done with their with their job, whether they're

2304
01:51:50,680 --> 01:51:54,360
Speaker 1: the trainer, the coach, the player. Uh, one of one

2305
01:51:54,400 --> 01:51:58,240
Speaker 1: of my personnel staff, whoever, it's get your job done

2306
01:51:58,320 --> 01:52:00,400
Speaker 1: and then bond. I know, we we have a little

2307
01:52:00,640 --> 01:52:03,719
Speaker 1: room up near my dorm room that's just a little

2308
01:52:03,760 --> 01:52:06,080
Speaker 1: hangout area and a lot of the scouts come in

2309
01:52:06,160 --> 01:52:09,200
Speaker 1: there at night and we just you know, sit there

2310
01:52:09,240 --> 01:52:11,280
Speaker 1: and bust chops and get to know each other better.

2311
01:52:11,360 --> 01:52:13,600
Speaker 1: And you know, we've played basketball a few nights, and

2312
01:52:14,280 --> 01:52:16,160
Speaker 1: I know other groups. I've seen some of the equipment

2313
01:52:16,240 --> 01:52:20,000
Speaker 1: guys and various groups staying around. You. You know, you

2314
01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:22,200
Speaker 1: you have to be there. There's nothing you have to

2315
01:52:22,280 --> 01:52:25,240
Speaker 1: do at home, and so it just it's kind of

2316
01:52:25,320 --> 01:52:28,120
Speaker 1: forced bonding to get to know each other so that

2317
01:52:28,240 --> 01:52:29,840
Speaker 1: I know I can count on the guy next to me,

2318
01:52:29,960 --> 01:52:32,800
Speaker 1: whether it's an employee, a player. And again you see

2319
01:52:32,800 --> 01:52:35,840
Speaker 1: it in the calfs or or in the player's dorm. Uh.

2320
01:52:35,960 --> 01:52:38,160
Speaker 1: Some of the guys just hanging out playing video games

2321
01:52:38,240 --> 01:52:41,439
Speaker 1: together or you know, talking, or there's ping pong table.

2322
01:52:41,720 --> 01:52:44,400
Speaker 1: There's a lot of different things that guys can that

2323
01:52:45,000 --> 01:52:46,800
Speaker 1: it's fun things for guys to do that they can

2324
01:52:46,840 --> 01:52:49,160
Speaker 1: also bond at the same time. One more question for you.

2325
01:52:49,240 --> 01:52:51,040
Speaker 1: This is a question we put to our audience today.

2326
01:52:52,160 --> 01:52:53,479
Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to answer this night.

2327
01:52:53,760 --> 01:52:55,599
Speaker 1: If you could pick three things that you would watch

2328
01:52:55,720 --> 01:52:59,120
Speaker 1: most intently tonight at tonight's practice, what would you watch?

2329
01:52:59,160 --> 01:53:01,479
Speaker 1: What are you gonna folks? Do you think you know? Um,

2330
01:53:02,439 --> 01:53:04,080
Speaker 1: I don't know. I focus on a lot, so be

2331
01:53:04,120 --> 01:53:07,040
Speaker 1: hard to narrow it down to three. Um, but I

2332
01:53:07,160 --> 01:53:08,519
Speaker 1: know the coaches are going to try and do some

2333
01:53:08,680 --> 01:53:10,639
Speaker 1: things and they'll be trying to watch the play clock.

2334
01:53:11,040 --> 01:53:13,360
Speaker 1: So you know, this is Brian day, boss, you know,

2335
01:53:13,600 --> 01:53:17,680
Speaker 1: first time as an oc here in Buffalo, and we

2336
01:53:17,800 --> 01:53:20,639
Speaker 1: got the quarterback battle. We got the centers. So are

2337
01:53:20,680 --> 01:53:23,599
Speaker 1: they able to get the plays in? Give the quarterbacks

2338
01:53:23,640 --> 01:53:26,439
Speaker 1: time to see what the defense is, make a check.

2339
01:53:27,040 --> 01:53:30,240
Speaker 1: It'll be their first chance to uh, you know, a

2340
01:53:30,360 --> 01:53:33,840
Speaker 1: dry run to too, because at practice you can turn around,

2341
01:53:33,880 --> 01:53:35,680
Speaker 1: you can say all right this, or you can take

2342
01:53:35,720 --> 01:53:38,000
Speaker 1: more than than what the play clock would be to

2343
01:53:38,080 --> 01:53:40,280
Speaker 1: get it done. They try to do it, but um,

2344
01:53:40,720 --> 01:53:43,360
Speaker 1: you know again we're looking at it at a lot

2345
01:53:43,439 --> 01:53:47,160
Speaker 1: of battles on defense and special teams will work on

2346
01:53:47,479 --> 01:53:49,960
Speaker 1: the kickoff stuff, which that's starting. People are starting to

2347
01:53:50,040 --> 01:53:52,599
Speaker 1: realize that that is going to be a different play.

2348
01:53:52,960 --> 01:53:55,080
Speaker 1: And I saw it a little bit last night in

2349
01:53:55,160 --> 01:53:57,960
Speaker 1: the Baltimore game, and and we're you know, I think

2350
01:53:58,040 --> 01:54:01,920
Speaker 1: Danny Croftsman's really a us about it, rightly so, because

2351
01:54:02,320 --> 01:54:04,280
Speaker 1: you're looking for any way to get an advantage and

2352
01:54:04,360 --> 01:54:07,200
Speaker 1: make sure you don't get fooled on something somebody's got

2353
01:54:07,240 --> 01:54:10,200
Speaker 1: planned for you. It's my last question. And at this

2354
01:54:10,320 --> 01:54:12,760
Speaker 1: time of year, not only the bills are in all

2355
01:54:12,800 --> 01:54:15,200
Speaker 1: thirty two teams, you kind of get inundated with all

2356
01:54:15,280 --> 01:54:17,280
Speaker 1: the coverage of all the camps all the way around,

2357
01:54:17,680 --> 01:54:19,479
Speaker 1: which means leads you to all the guys that are

2358
01:54:19,520 --> 01:54:21,360
Speaker 1: out there that aren't on teams, like you know that

2359
01:54:21,479 --> 01:54:25,240
Speaker 1: Dez Bryants and brand Lapel was released, and then you

2360
01:54:25,280 --> 01:54:27,759
Speaker 1: see guys like Khalil Mack who and everybody in Buffalo

2361
01:54:27,880 --> 01:54:30,280
Speaker 1: wants you to trade right now for Khalil, You know

2362
01:54:30,320 --> 01:54:33,120
Speaker 1: what I'm saying? Right how and for me, I would

2363
01:54:33,160 --> 01:54:36,200
Speaker 1: think it's pretty unlikely. Maybe you'll tell me different that

2364
01:54:36,480 --> 01:54:38,240
Speaker 1: you're gonna make any moves right now because you got

2365
01:54:38,280 --> 01:54:41,640
Speaker 1: the eighty five guys or seventy five guys you want here,

2366
01:54:42,160 --> 01:54:45,120
Speaker 1: But there are some guys out there who you got

2367
01:54:45,240 --> 01:54:47,360
Speaker 1: to think about. I mean, how likely is that stuff

2368
01:54:47,400 --> 01:54:49,920
Speaker 1: to happen? At this point when you know your coaching staff.

2369
01:54:49,960 --> 01:54:52,960
Speaker 1: Those guys are in like neck deep into these guys,

2370
01:54:53,320 --> 01:54:55,360
Speaker 1: but you're not. You can't be. You gotta keep your

2371
01:54:55,600 --> 01:54:58,160
Speaker 1: eyes out around. Yeah, well, how likely is stuff like

2372
01:54:58,280 --> 01:55:00,400
Speaker 1: that to happen? And we haven't seen any aybody else

2373
01:55:00,400 --> 01:55:04,400
Speaker 1: sign anybody either. Yeah, it's um, you're constantly moderning, you're

2374
01:55:04,440 --> 01:55:10,000
Speaker 1: consciously talking to agents, and we're constantly tracking anytime a

2375
01:55:10,080 --> 01:55:14,040
Speaker 1: guy gets released. Um, we we have a guy grade

2376
01:55:14,120 --> 01:55:16,240
Speaker 1: him right there. One of our scouts grades him, and

2377
01:55:16,360 --> 01:55:20,080
Speaker 1: it's emailed to me Joe Dan and Malik Boyd and

2378
01:55:21,160 --> 01:55:23,280
Speaker 1: I get right on my phone if there or email,

2379
01:55:23,560 --> 01:55:25,960
Speaker 1: and if he pops a certain grade, we go all right.

2380
01:55:26,200 --> 01:55:27,960
Speaker 1: Now one of us may watch him and see if

2381
01:55:28,000 --> 01:55:31,440
Speaker 1: we agree and if so, is this an upgrade for

2382
01:55:31,760 --> 01:55:34,040
Speaker 1: for us? You know, And we're always trying to turn

2383
01:55:34,080 --> 01:55:37,080
Speaker 1: the bottom of the roster. So sometimes we may want

2384
01:55:37,120 --> 01:55:39,080
Speaker 1: to bring a guy in, but he wants to wait

2385
01:55:39,160 --> 01:55:41,480
Speaker 1: and see his opportunity. He feels like he doesn't have.

2386
01:55:41,640 --> 01:55:43,840
Speaker 1: He looks at the agents, they look at our roster,

2387
01:55:44,160 --> 01:55:46,320
Speaker 1: they look at our depth chart. So sometimes there's a

2388
01:55:46,400 --> 01:55:49,440
Speaker 1: clamoring for for us to bring a guy in and

2389
01:55:49,560 --> 01:55:52,520
Speaker 1: maybe we agree. Maybe we're trying but the agent's going,

2390
01:55:52,800 --> 01:55:54,600
Speaker 1: you know what, I really don't like that situation for

2391
01:55:54,680 --> 01:55:57,200
Speaker 1: my guy. I'm not sure he's gonna make it there.

2392
01:55:57,240 --> 01:56:00,200
Speaker 1: I'd rather wait for an injury somewhere else. And sometimes

2393
01:56:00,200 --> 01:56:02,200
Speaker 1: they'll even say, hey, let's let it play for another

2394
01:56:02,240 --> 01:56:04,840
Speaker 1: week or two and see if anything else shakes. If not,

2395
01:56:05,520 --> 01:56:08,080
Speaker 1: I'll bring him your way, right, Brandon, thanks for listening.

2396

2431
01:57:57,200 --> 01:58:01,160
Speaker 1: he was maybe the premier personnel man eighties nineties. He's

2432
01:58:01,200 --> 01:58:03,560
Speaker 1: the he's the Unfortunately he was the guy that was

2433
01:58:03,600 --> 01:58:05,400
Speaker 1: kind of backed into a corner and had to draft

2434
01:58:05,560 --> 01:58:08,600
Speaker 1: Ryan Leaf. Yeah, that was his That was kind of

2435
01:58:08,600 --> 01:58:10,480
Speaker 1: the beginning of the inform back out there. It was.

2436
01:58:10,880 --> 01:58:14,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, I remember linebacker Robert Brazil who was a

2437
01:58:14,600 --> 01:58:17,200
Speaker 1: former team and teammate of mind for Remember my rookie

2438
01:58:17,280 --> 01:58:21,960
Speaker 1: season in UH in Houston. Robert Brazil was on that

2439
01:58:22,040 --> 01:58:24,960
Speaker 1: team along with Greg Bingham. There were some great players

2440
01:58:24,960 --> 01:58:28,000
Speaker 1: on that team, and Robert Brazil's one him. We Yeah,

2441
01:58:28,120 --> 01:58:30,960
Speaker 1: I had some conversations with him when he's still playing safety.

2442
01:58:31,040 --> 01:58:34,280
Speaker 1: Brian Dawkins from the Eagles. Anything on him, Yeah, he's

2443
01:58:34,280 --> 01:58:36,600
Speaker 1: a great player, yeah, really truly a great guard. Jerry

2444
01:58:36,640 --> 01:58:40,680
Speaker 1: Kramer the Packers. I love that selection his book Instant Replay.

2445
01:58:41,200 --> 01:58:42,720
Speaker 1: I read it when I must have been nine or

2446
01:58:42,760 --> 01:58:45,000
Speaker 1: ten years old. I thought I liked pro football a lot,

2447
01:58:45,160 --> 01:58:48,440
Speaker 1: mostly because of his book. Linebacker Ray Lewis, great career,

2448
01:58:48,520 --> 01:58:52,480
Speaker 1: wide receiver, Randy Moss the same linebacker Brian Urlacker, great

2449
01:58:52,520 --> 01:58:55,320
Speaker 1: career with Chicago YEP, and Terall Owens is going in.

2450
01:58:55,440 --> 01:58:57,840
Speaker 1: He won't be there tomorrow, and you and I both

2451
01:58:57,920 --> 01:58:59,800
Speaker 1: kind of flipped out when TiO announced that he would

2452
01:58:59,800 --> 01:59:02,560
Speaker 1: not ten the Hall of Fame ceremony now, and I'm

2453
01:59:02,600 --> 01:59:04,440
Speaker 1: the eve of the Hall of Fame ceremony tomorrow, and

2454
01:59:04,480 --> 01:59:06,080
Speaker 1: I t O will do his own thing where in

2455
01:59:06,160 --> 01:59:10,200
Speaker 1: Tennessee somewhere. It's still inexcusable. I don't have the same

2456
01:59:10,920 --> 01:59:12,879
Speaker 1: level of motion I have when he made that announcement,

2457
01:59:12,880 --> 01:59:16,080
Speaker 1: but it's still inexcusable and a slight to all those

2458
01:59:16,120 --> 01:59:18,680
Speaker 1: other Hall of famers going in tomorrow and to everybody

2459
01:59:18,680 --> 01:59:20,720
Speaker 1: who's ever been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

2460
01:59:20,720 --> 01:59:22,760
Speaker 1: Per Terrell Owens, I think I don't need to be there.

2461
01:59:22,760 --> 01:59:24,760
Speaker 1: I'll do my own thing. It's a class of yeah,

2462
01:59:24,840 --> 01:59:27,200
Speaker 1: class of eight guys. All of them are worthy. You know.

2463
01:59:27,240 --> 01:59:29,600
Speaker 1: The Jerry Kramer one kind of warms your heart because

2464
01:59:29,680 --> 01:59:33,800
Speaker 1: for so long guys people have been wishing that he

2465
01:59:33,840 --> 01:59:36,640
Speaker 1: would go in, and he did. Terrell Owens gives it

2466
01:59:36,720 --> 01:59:39,320
Speaker 1: a little flavor of being unique, wherein there's a guy

2467
01:59:39,480 --> 01:59:43,240
Speaker 1: who wasn't a first ballot Hall of Famer, and because

2468
01:59:43,280 --> 01:59:44,920
Speaker 1: of that, I think in some ways he decided he

2469
01:59:45,000 --> 01:59:47,200
Speaker 1: wanted to do his own thing. But he truly, in

2470
01:59:47,280 --> 01:59:49,480
Speaker 1: his statistics in his career one of the great all

2471
01:59:49,560 --> 01:59:52,760
Speaker 1: time receivers, I mean the top three receivers of all time,

2472
01:59:53,440 --> 01:59:59,000
Speaker 1: maybe the top two. He had a phenomenal career statistically speaking.

2473
01:59:59,200 --> 02:00:00,880
Speaker 1: I love the way the Hall Fame is dealing with it.

2474
02:00:00,960 --> 02:00:03,280
Speaker 1: Two just kind of ignoring them. Okay, you're going to

2475
02:00:03,360 --> 02:00:06,360
Speaker 1: the Hall. Yeah, well we will mail your gold jacket.

2476
02:00:06,880 --> 02:00:11,240
Speaker 1: Knock yourself out, have fun, deo absolutely now future Hall

02:00:11,240 --> 02:00:12,840
Speaker 1: of Famers. This is a really good piece that went

02:00:12,920 --> 02:00:16,560
Speaker 1: up yesterday on ESPN dot com, decidning top Hall of

2479

Speaker 1: Fame debates, revs, Rivers, Eli, Beast Mode and more. They

2480
02:00:20,560 --> 02:00:23,280
Speaker 1: assembled a panel of NFL writers, Pro Football Hall of

2481
02:00:23,320 --> 02:00:26,960
Speaker 1: Fame voters Mike Sando, Jeff Legwald, Mina Kimes, Dan Graziano,

2482
02:00:27,240 --> 02:00:29,720
Speaker 1: and analytics Guy. They looked at some of the guys

2483
02:00:29,760 --> 02:00:31,560
Speaker 1: who were kind of on the bubble Hall of Famer

2484
02:00:31,680 --> 02:00:35,800
Speaker 1: or not. They eliminated the locks Brady Roethlisberger, you know

2485
02:00:35,880 --> 02:00:38,120
Speaker 1: they're gonna be Hall of famers, Jason Witt and Joe Thomas,

2486
02:00:38,520 --> 02:00:40,880
Speaker 1: Antonio Gates the Hall of Famers, sure. But they had

2487
02:00:40,880 --> 02:00:43,400
Speaker 1: a list of about six or seven Hall of Fame

2488
02:00:43,480 --> 02:00:45,760
Speaker 1: candidates and discuss whether or not they go in. I

2489
02:00:45,840 --> 02:00:48,160
Speaker 1: want to go through some of these. These are these

2490
02:00:48,240 --> 02:00:51,080
Speaker 1: guys were the bubble guys they were talking about, right, Yeah, alright,

2491
02:00:51,200 --> 02:00:53,760
Speaker 1: really good list. I think let's start with a guy

2492
02:00:53,800 --> 02:00:57,320
Speaker 1: who just formally announced his retirement. Durell revs. Jets Corner

2493
02:00:57,400 --> 02:01:02,320
Speaker 1: fourteenth overall pick eleven seasons, Jets, Bucks, Patriots, Chiefs Durell revs.

2494
02:01:02,440 --> 02:01:04,960
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. I say, yeah, he's a lock. I

2495
02:01:04,960 --> 02:01:07,120
Speaker 1: don't even know why he's on this exactly. Yeah. A

2496
02:01:07,160 --> 02:01:09,240
Speaker 1: lot of these are like that for me though, So Yeah,

2497
02:01:09,480 --> 02:01:12,680
Speaker 1: Durrell Rievers definitely belongs in the Pro Football Hall of Fame,

2498
02:01:12,720 --> 02:01:14,720
Speaker 1: and we'll get there. I don't think there's any doubt

2499
02:01:14,720 --> 02:01:19,520
Speaker 1: about that. Interesting question about I think Philip Rivers, quarterback

2500
02:01:19,600 --> 02:01:24,000
Speaker 1: with the Chargers UM number four overall pick seven Pro Bowls. UM,

2501
02:01:24,800 --> 02:01:28,120
Speaker 1: is he Hall of Famers though? I think that's close.

2502
02:01:28,720 --> 02:01:31,160
Speaker 1: I think he's a definite. You do, I do. I've

2503
02:01:31,200 --> 02:01:34,480
Speaker 1: seen the guy play UM and I'm gonna play he's

2504
02:01:35,400 --> 02:01:38,920
Speaker 1: and yeah, he's a phenomenal, phenomenal quarterback. Has been great

2505
02:01:39,040 --> 02:01:41,040
Speaker 1: and he's been better than the other guy he was

2506
02:01:41,120 --> 02:01:44,360
Speaker 1: drafted with and traded for. Um just hasn't won that.

2507
02:01:44,480 --> 02:01:46,880
Speaker 1: He hasn't been with an organization that was capable of

2508
02:01:47,000 --> 02:01:51,800
Speaker 1: winning a championship and the other guy did um. I'm interesting.

2509
02:01:51,920 --> 02:01:54,440
Speaker 1: Notes on Philip Rivers from this ESPN list. One of

2510
02:01:54,560 --> 02:01:57,960
Speaker 1: six NFL players in NFL history with at least four

2511
02:01:58,040 --> 02:02:01,800
Speaker 1: seasons of triple digit passer rays, Drew Brees, Tom Brady,

2512
02:02:01,920 --> 02:02:06,400
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Steve Young, and Philip Rivers. He's listen,

2513
02:02:06,520 --> 02:02:09,920
Speaker 1: he's all of that. He's every bit the quarterback anybody

2514
02:02:09,960 --> 02:02:11,520
Speaker 1: else has been he's and he's done it for a

2515
02:02:11,640 --> 02:02:14,280
Speaker 1: long long time and he still is doing it. He's

2516
02:02:14,320 --> 02:02:17,040
Speaker 1: still doing it. He has had a phenomenal career, all right.

2517
02:02:17,120 --> 02:02:20,600
Speaker 1: So Rivers gets in despite his lack of postseason success.

2518
02:02:21,000 --> 02:02:24,720
Speaker 1: What about Eli Manning whose strongest argument is his postseason success?

2519
02:02:24,880 --> 02:02:28,760
Speaker 1: Right number one overall picked two hundred ten consecutive starts

2520
02:02:28,800 --> 02:02:31,200
Speaker 1: for a long time, four Pro Bowls, two time, two

2521
02:02:31,280 --> 02:02:34,760
Speaker 1: time Super Bowl MVP. Eli Manning In or out, He's

2522
02:02:34,800 --> 02:02:36,680
Speaker 1: gotta be in, I think so he's gonna be in

2523
02:02:36,720 --> 02:02:39,120
Speaker 1: anyway because he's a New York quarterback and he won

2524
02:02:39,160 --> 02:02:41,920
Speaker 1: two Super Bowls and that alone gets him in. But yeah,

2525
02:02:42,600 --> 02:02:47,960
Speaker 1: a long career, never missed a snap. Yeah, that's yeah.

2526
02:02:48,120 --> 02:02:51,120
Speaker 1: He's in for me. So you know, I'm my These

2527
02:02:51,160 --> 02:02:53,080
Speaker 1: are my opinions. So I don't and I don't carry

2528
02:02:53,120 --> 02:02:56,360
Speaker 1: any weight, not even at home. So let alone. On

2529
02:02:56,400 --> 02:03:00,440
Speaker 1: this show from from ESPN, they write, Ultimately Hall of

2530
02:03:00,480 --> 02:03:02,600
Speaker 1: Fame voters will be asked if Eli Manning was one

2531
02:03:02,600 --> 02:03:08,280
Speaker 1: of the best quarterbacks in an era of Brady Breeze, Rogers, Rivers, Roethlisberger, Um,

2532
02:03:08,520 --> 02:03:10,520
Speaker 1: to know against the best quarterback of all, I think

2533
02:03:10,560 --> 02:03:13,200
Speaker 1: he is in that class. Is the numbers might not

2534
02:03:13,360 --> 02:03:15,720
Speaker 1: even reflect that, but I think Eli Manning is a

2535
02:03:15,760 --> 02:03:17,160
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. I really tell you what you got

2536
02:03:17,240 --> 02:03:19,040
Speaker 1: to say this about him? He was a gamer, Yeah,

2537
02:03:19,160 --> 02:03:24,320
Speaker 1: big big games. He was the guy. So yeah, players

2538
02:03:24,320 --> 02:03:27,360
Speaker 1: who won multiple Super Bowl MVPs. It's the smallest Tom Brady,

2539
02:03:27,440 --> 02:03:31,120
Speaker 1: Joe Montana, Terry Bradshaw, and Eli Manning. That alone gets

2540
02:03:31,200 --> 02:03:35,280
Speaker 1: him in, Right, He's Hall of Famer. Yeah, helier Carson

2541
02:03:35,400 --> 02:03:40,000
Speaker 1: Palmer Um never won a ring. He had great numbers

2542
02:03:40,000 --> 02:03:43,160
Speaker 1: throughout his career, UM twelfth and yards all time and

2543
02:03:43,240 --> 02:03:47,400
Speaker 1: touchdowns thrown and in yards twelfth. That's pretty good. All

2544
02:03:47,440 --> 02:03:48,920
Speaker 1: of those ranked I had him are either in the

2545
02:03:49,000 --> 02:03:50,520
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame or elected to be in the Hall

2546
02:03:50,560 --> 02:03:55,360
Speaker 1: of Fame. UM. One of four quarterbacks in NFL history

2547
02:03:55,360 --> 02:03:57,320
Speaker 1: with at least one of their touchdown passes for two

2548
02:03:57,400 --> 02:04:02,320
Speaker 1: different teams. Carson Palmer famer? No, I don't think so.

2549
02:04:02,640 --> 02:04:08,280
Speaker 1: I think he's in the Hall of really really good. Um. Yeah, man, yeah,

2550
02:04:08,320 --> 02:04:11,960
Speaker 1: I gotta say no. I don't think he's on my list. Yeah. Um,

2551
02:04:12,880 --> 02:04:14,920
Speaker 1: esp he's not. He's not a good quarterback, as Philip

2552
02:04:15,000 --> 02:04:17,520
Speaker 1: rivers to me. Oh, I agree with that. I agree

2553
02:04:17,560 --> 02:04:19,680
Speaker 1: with that. Yep. No, I'm gonna say no one. Carson

2554
02:04:19,720 --> 02:04:22,200
Speaker 1: Palmer as well? Who else is on this? Him too?

2555
02:04:22,960 --> 02:04:26,080
Speaker 1: He's a great dude. I'm sorry. Um, here's a Hall

2556
02:04:26,080 --> 02:04:28,520
Speaker 1: of Fame question, and this might hurt some Bills fans.

2557
02:04:28,720 --> 02:04:32,200
Speaker 1: Is this guy hall of Famer? Jason Peters um an

2558
02:04:32,320 --> 02:04:35,520
Speaker 1: undrafted free agent signing other Bills and OH four two

2559

Speaker 1: first team All Pro appearances, for second team All Pro appearances,

2560
02:04:39,480 --> 02:04:43,600
Speaker 1: nine Pro Bowls. Um, Jason Peters? Is he a Hall

2561
02:04:43,640 --> 02:04:48,160
Speaker 1: of Famer? I don't think so. No, he was unanimous

2562
02:04:48,200 --> 02:04:51,000
Speaker 1: by this ESPN panel. Yes, he's in. He probably will

2563
02:04:51,040 --> 02:04:55,960
Speaker 1: get in, but I you know, I don't. I don't know. Yeah, no, well,

2564
02:04:56,200 --> 02:04:59,000
Speaker 1: I think he probably will get in. He probably will actually,

2565
02:05:00,200 --> 02:05:03,680
Speaker 1: particularly given this last year. I don't like his departure

2566
02:05:03,800 --> 02:05:05,560
Speaker 1: from the Bills. I don't like how he Maybe that's

2567
02:05:05,720 --> 02:05:07,440
Speaker 1: part of it too, where we have a little baggage,

2568
02:05:07,480 --> 02:05:09,760
Speaker 1: live in emotional baggage with it. But I'm no, for

2569
02:05:09,880 --> 02:05:13,120
Speaker 1: me now, I'm I have a hard time with that one. Yeah,

2570
02:05:13,240 --> 02:05:16,880
Speaker 1: here's one. Terrell Sugs Terrell Suggs Ravens tenth overall pick,

2573
02:05:25,480 --> 02:05:28,560
Speaker 1: Yeah for me is yeah, great sizzle. Here's one I

2574
02:05:28,640 --> 02:05:32,960
Speaker 1: don't well. Marshawn Lynch, former Bills draft pick, five Pro Bowls.

2575
02:05:33,000 --> 02:05:34,480
Speaker 1: I guess I didn't realize that that's a lot of

2576
02:05:34,520 --> 02:05:38,520
Speaker 1: Pro Bowls. Thirty first all time in rushing yardage, ranked

2577
02:05:38,560 --> 02:05:41,800
Speaker 1: in Fantasy football. Who cares one? First team All Pro appearance,

2578
02:05:42,360 --> 02:05:46,280
Speaker 1: beast mode, hall of fame. A nickname doesn't get you

2579
02:05:46,360 --> 02:05:49,000
Speaker 1: in No beast mode. No, I don't think he's had

2580
02:05:49,880 --> 02:05:52,600
Speaker 1: the type of consistent career that would warrant that. And

2581
02:05:52,760 --> 02:05:54,320
Speaker 1: one more from the no two or more from the

2582
02:05:54,520 --> 02:05:57,480
Speaker 1: ESPN list. Frank Gore, another running back, Frank Gore five

2583
02:05:57,560 --> 02:06:01,040
Speaker 1: Pro Bowls, a fifth all time in rushing. Yes, probably

2584
02:06:01,120 --> 02:06:04,840
Speaker 1: with those number different all time rushing behind. Look at

2585
02:06:05,080 --> 02:06:07,640
Speaker 1: the names behind he's behind on the all time rushing list.

2586
02:06:07,960 --> 02:06:10,360
Speaker 1: It's like it's who's who. Yes, he is a Hall

2587
02:06:10,400 --> 02:06:14,080
Speaker 1: of Famer. One more kicker, Adam vinetarry Ye. Think about

2588
02:06:14,120 --> 02:06:15,680
Speaker 1: it for a second. It was what two kickers in

2589
02:06:15,720 --> 02:06:18,520
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, and Vinetary should be one of them.

2590
02:06:18,640 --> 02:06:21,240
Speaker 1: He should be the third. Yeah, give it some thought,

2591
02:06:21,360 --> 02:06:24,880
Speaker 1: don't just don't. I did, I've seen, I've seen the list.

2592
02:06:24,960 --> 02:06:28,240
Speaker 1: I'm yeah, we're talking about this special teams guys. Now

2593
02:06:28,320 --> 02:06:33,160
Speaker 1: he is, He's in. He's he has distinguished himself and

2594
02:06:33,280 --> 02:06:35,600
Speaker 1: not only in big games, but consistently over time and

2595
02:06:35,680 --> 02:06:38,280
Speaker 1: continues to He's gonna kick again for the Colts this year. Okay,

2596
02:06:38,720 --> 02:06:41,480
Speaker 1: it's an interesting post on the ESPN. They pulled the

2597
02:06:41,640 --> 02:06:45,480
Speaker 1: five writers. Talk to them about guys who are currently

2598
02:06:45,520 --> 02:06:47,320
Speaker 1: playing are just recently retired? Do they belong in the

2599
02:06:47,360 --> 02:06:49,280
Speaker 1: Pro Football Hall of Fame? The Hall of Fame twenty

2600
02:06:49,360 --> 02:06:52,200
Speaker 1: eighteen in trimate is tomorrow time now for NFL Tour

2601
02:06:52,240 --> 02:06:54,880
Speaker 1: or False brought to you by Yancey's Fancy New York's

2602
02:06:55,000 --> 02:06:58,320
Speaker 1: Artistan Chiefs. A couple of issues here. Um, the bill

2603
02:06:58,480 --> 02:07:01,720
Speaker 1: should look into bringing and Brandon LaFell just released by

2604
02:07:01,800 --> 02:07:04,720
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bill should look into him to

2605
02:07:04,840 --> 02:07:08,160
Speaker 1: bring him into here. Now they're gonna they say, I

2606
02:07:08,280 --> 02:07:09,680
Speaker 1: do this every time, but I'm gonna do it here.

2607
02:07:09,720 --> 02:07:12,200
Speaker 1: I don't know, Steve, what do you think? Do I

2608
02:07:12,320 --> 02:07:16,840
Speaker 1: say that? Every time? They say? They laugh? I control room.

2609
02:07:16,960 --> 02:07:19,000
Speaker 1: I know what I think. Yes, they should look into

2610
02:07:19,040 --> 02:07:21,440
Speaker 1: bring bringing Brandon la fell in with the receivers they

2611
02:07:21,480 --> 02:07:24,080
Speaker 1: have here. Brandon LaFell, I think it deserves a look

2612
02:07:24,120 --> 02:07:25,760
Speaker 1: that should they sign him. Well, let's see what he

2613
02:07:25,800 --> 02:07:28,840
Speaker 1: looks like. Listen, we just talked to Brandon Bean. He

2614
02:07:28,920 --> 02:07:31,000
Speaker 1: told us the procedure. They have looked into it. They

2615
02:07:31,040 --> 02:07:33,200
Speaker 1: got him graded, and they're look, they're probably talked had

2616
02:07:33,240 --> 02:07:35,520
Speaker 1: a conversation about it, and they may have even talked

2617
02:07:35,560 --> 02:07:38,840
Speaker 1: to his representation about their philosophy. So yeah, they're gonna

2618
02:07:38,880 --> 02:07:40,960
Speaker 1: look into it. That's their job. He's a he's a

2619
02:07:41,080 --> 02:07:44,200
Speaker 1: quality veteran receiver who's been in the league and done

2620
02:07:44,280 --> 02:07:47,640
Speaker 1: some things, and he was asking to get released from

2621
02:07:47,880 --> 02:07:51,600
Speaker 1: from the team, So absolutely they should look into it,

2622
02:07:51,680 --> 02:07:55,640
Speaker 1: and they probably already have. NFL True or False True two.

2623
02:07:56,440 --> 02:07:58,520
Speaker 1: This is part two an article in The Ring Are

2624
02:07:58,520 --> 02:08:01,280
Speaker 1: written by our buddy Kevin Clark. He claims the Cleveland

2625
02:08:01,320 --> 02:08:04,760
Speaker 1: Browns are the most interesting oh in sixteen team in

2626
02:08:05,080 --> 02:08:07,400
Speaker 1: NFL history. I don't know what I think of the

2627
02:08:07,440 --> 02:08:08,800
Speaker 1: Steve what do you know? I know what I think

2628
02:08:08,840 --> 02:08:11,440
Speaker 1: of this. No, they're not that interesting, you know, just

2629
02:08:11,560 --> 02:08:15,120
Speaker 1: because their own sixteen doesn't make them interesting. I don't

2630
02:08:15,160 --> 02:08:17,360
Speaker 1: find the Browns story that compelling. You know, they have

2631
02:08:17,440 --> 02:08:20,400
Speaker 1: the number one overall pick. That's a compelling story. But overall,

2632
02:08:20,440 --> 02:08:22,280
Speaker 1: I don't think the Browns are that interesting, given they

2633
02:08:22,320 --> 02:08:26,040
Speaker 1: are are almost habitual failures, and I think they're probably

2634
02:08:26,080 --> 02:08:28,760
Speaker 1: going to fail again this year. Well, given the confines

2635
02:08:28,800 --> 02:08:30,720
Speaker 1: of the question, I think they are. There's only one

2636
02:08:30,760 --> 02:08:32,800
Speaker 1: other O and sixteen team, and it was it was

2637
02:08:32,880 --> 02:08:36,760
Speaker 1: the Lions, and I think they are more interesting than

2638
02:08:36,800 --> 02:08:39,360
Speaker 1: the Lions were coming into their season after they were

2639
02:08:39,400 --> 02:08:41,800
Speaker 1: oh and sixteen. You know, with the first overall pick,

2640
02:08:41,880 --> 02:08:45,920
Speaker 1: with the talent, they've accumulated a change in philosophy at

2641
02:08:45,960 --> 02:08:50,280
Speaker 1: the top with Dorsey, So yeah, they are the most

2642
02:08:50,360 --> 02:08:52,920
Speaker 1: interesting and sixteen team in history. They only had one

2643
02:08:52,960 --> 02:08:56,920
Speaker 1: other team to beat, So there's there's that. And finally,

2644
02:08:57,000 --> 02:08:59,400
Speaker 1: on NFL true or false, ray Lewis, speaking to media

2645
02:08:59,520 --> 02:09:02,440
Speaker 1: in Canton the other day, said quote, I would love

2646
02:09:02,480 --> 02:09:04,640
Speaker 1: for you to show me a better, better middle linebacker

2647
02:09:04,720 --> 02:09:07,920
Speaker 1: in the game than Baltimore's c J. Mosley. C J.

2648
02:09:08,120 --> 02:09:13,400
Speaker 1: Mosley is the NFL's best middle linebacker. True. False. I

2649
02:09:13,480 --> 02:09:15,520
Speaker 1: gotta be honest. I didn't know c J. Mosley was

2650
02:09:15,560 --> 02:09:19,400
Speaker 1: there inside linebacker really, so I'll say false. I'm gonna

2651
02:09:19,440 --> 02:09:21,880
Speaker 1: say false. I think Luke Keickley is the best deal

2652
02:09:21,920 --> 02:09:23,720
Speaker 1: in there. You go, that's the name I was looking for.

2653
02:09:24,560 --> 02:09:27,040
Speaker 1: I think when he and now Luke Keackley has been

2654
02:09:27,480 --> 02:09:31,800
Speaker 1: hobbled by concussions, but he is when he's in there,

2655
02:09:32,000 --> 02:09:34,360
Speaker 1: Luke Keickley. And I've said it a ton, he looks

2656
02:09:34,440 --> 02:09:38,720
Speaker 1: clairvoyant when he's on the field. Um. But c J. Mosley,

2657
02:09:38,800 --> 02:09:41,240
Speaker 1: no question. And if Ray Lewis and Ray Lewis is

2658
02:09:41,240 --> 02:09:43,840
Speaker 1: a Baltimore guy, so he's you know, kind of obligated.

2659
02:09:43,880 --> 02:09:47,080
Speaker 1: But listen, Ray Ray knows what he's talking about when

2660
02:09:47,120 --> 02:09:50,720
Speaker 1: middle linebackers. So but he is a Baltimore guy, So

2661
02:09:50,800 --> 02:09:53,320
Speaker 1: I think that disqualifies his opinion. We both say false

2662
02:09:53,920 --> 02:09:56,920
Speaker 1: false on that NFL True and false. Rochi My Yancy's

2663
02:09:56,960 --> 02:09:59,480
Speaker 1: Fancy New York's Artist and Cheese. Steve and I back

2664
02:09:59,520 --> 02:10:01,440
Speaker 1: with mort M Home and One Bills Live from One

2665
02:10:01,480 --> 02:10:04,640
Speaker 1: Bill's Drive presented by Kalaida Health. This is Buffalo Bill's

2666
02:10:04,720 --> 02:10:22,600
Speaker 1: radio time for What have we learned from today's show?

2667
02:10:22,680 --> 02:10:26,040
Speaker 1: Presented by Advanced Alarm providing Western New York's homes and

2668
02:10:26,240 --> 02:10:28,840
Speaker 1: businesses with a finance and security and home theater. He

2669
02:10:28,920 --> 02:10:31,240
Speaker 1: preferred Alarm at Home Theater Provider or the Buffalo Bills

2670
02:10:31,320 --> 02:10:33,600
Speaker 1: What have we learned? Good show today. Chad Pennington joined

2671
02:10:33,680 --> 02:10:36,600
Speaker 1: US eleven years as an NFL quarterback, former first round

2672
02:10:36,640 --> 02:10:39,560
Speaker 1: pick of the Jets, and he has spent significant mentoring

2673
02:10:39,640 --> 02:10:42,920
Speaker 1: time with Bill's quarterback Josh Allen. Chad Pennington talked about

2674
02:10:43,000 --> 02:10:45,040
Speaker 1: his time at the Senior Bowl with Josh Allen. All

2675
02:10:45,160 --> 02:10:47,480
Speaker 1: I'm sorry talking about Brian day Ball. I learned a

2676
02:10:47,600 --> 02:10:50,080
Speaker 1: lot of football to Brian. I mean a ton of football,

2677
02:10:50,160 --> 02:10:54,480
Speaker 1: especially on the defensive side. Understanding combo coverages and understanding

2678
02:10:54,600 --> 02:10:57,680
Speaker 1: why we're attacking this certain coverage and where we're trying

2679
02:10:57,680 --> 02:11:00,640
Speaker 1: to attacking His knowledge on that of the ball for

2680
02:11:00,680 --> 02:11:03,800
Speaker 1: a quarterback is invaluable, and so you know, I also

2681
02:11:03,920 --> 02:11:06,000
Speaker 1: think he knows how important it is to stay in

2682
02:11:06,080 --> 02:11:08,440
Speaker 1: these guys hire pocket, the staying here all the time,

2683
02:11:08,480 --> 02:11:11,040
Speaker 1: because they really need to be listening to just one

2684
02:11:11,160 --> 02:11:14,520
Speaker 1: voice and be communicating with one voice. That's the only

2685
02:11:14,560 --> 02:11:17,240
Speaker 1: way you create any typic consistency. Once you get three

2686
02:11:17,320 --> 02:11:19,000
Speaker 1: or four voices in your head telling you three or

2687
02:11:19,000 --> 02:11:22,320
Speaker 1: four different things, very difficult to be consistent. So I

2688
02:11:22,400 --> 02:11:24,040
Speaker 1: think that's what he's trying to do, is just stay

2689
02:11:24,160 --> 02:11:27,400
Speaker 1: right there with him every dawn, every practice, every day

2690
02:11:27,960 --> 02:11:30,360
Speaker 1: and make sure that they're hearing that consistent voice and

2691
02:11:30,480 --> 02:11:34,720
Speaker 1: talking to consistent language and communicating correctly by day ball.

2692
02:11:34,800 --> 02:11:36,920
Speaker 1: That's what Chad Pennington was talking about. He was his

2693
02:11:37,040 --> 02:11:39,800
Speaker 1: quarterback coach in two thousand and seven when Pennington and

2694
02:11:39,880 --> 02:11:41,680
Speaker 1: Dable were with the New York Jets. Sorry about that,

2695
02:11:41,720 --> 02:11:44,640

Speaker 1: we were able to you know, a talk about Buffalo

02:12:07,400 --> 02:12:10,120
Speaker 1: and you know the culture and what a football town

2704
