00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 1: This is One Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health.

2
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 2: All Right, how you be on this Wednesday? Chris Brown,

3
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 2: Steve Tasker joining you here on One Bill's Live. Thank

4
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,559
Speaker 2: you for joining us. As the players are back on

5
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,599
Speaker 2: the practice field, first day of work today, presumably of

6
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 2: the walkthrough variety and getting ready game install for the

7
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 2: divisional playoff. And there's obviously been a lot of talk

8
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 2: on the National show about how in the world did

9
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 2: you offend this Ravens team and Henry and Jackson and

10
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 2: the two headed monster that they are and how different

11
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 2: they are as talents and oh my god, I'm already

12
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 2: getting exhausted.

13
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's that kind of particular. The way the

14
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 3: first game of this matchup went. Yeah, the Bills looked defenseless.

15
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 3: They didn't look like they had any answers at all.

16
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 3: And since that game, the Ravens have actually gotten better

17
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 3: and Lamar actually during the middle of the season and

18
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 3: the late of late, has flexed his muscle in the

19
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 3: passing game. Is so now they're ridiculous statistics, right, So

20
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 3: now they can throw it as well as you know,

21
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 3: power run it. And you know, for most people they

22
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 3: are like, what do you do with that, you know,

23
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 3: And so it's a good question. It's a good question

24
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 3: there because they're you know, all these all eight teams

25
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 3: that are left in the playoffs. They're here for a reason.

26
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 3: They all play really well, and they all got stuff

27
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 3: they can do really well. And Baltimore seem to be

28
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 3: one of those teams that does so much so well

29
00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,559
Speaker 3: that you know, people can have a hard time finding

30
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:00,559
Speaker 3: a path to beating them.

31
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Reid option. Lamar is just so good with

32
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 2: his ball fake, like you think it's in the running

33
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 2: back stomach and he's running out on the edge with

34
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 2: it already. He's really good with his ball fakes. He's

35
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 2: just elite. And I mean he's elite in a lot

36
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: of areas, but that's one that a lot of people

37
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 2: I don't think respect enough, just how he can just

38
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 2: pull it or you know, even on play and they

39
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 2: don't really run a lot of play action. But he's

40
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 2: just good at hiding the ball. He's just really good.

41
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 2: And him with an extra half second head start forget

42
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 2: it right, you know what I mean, Like you can't

43
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 2: react because you're not sure where the ball is.

44
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 3: He's really big, he's really fast, and you can see

45
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 3: highlight after highlight, guys are looking the other way and

46
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 3: he's running past him with the ball. Yeah, it's pretty

47
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 3: It's got to be really frustrating for a defense.

48
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 2: This week's game. And the proud sponsor of this year's

49
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 2: playoffs is Northtown Automotive Group. Whatever you're looking for, you'll

50
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: find it at Northtown, the official automotive dealer of the

51
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills, and we wanted to remind you here on Wednesday. Also,

52
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 2: the PEPSI Football Relationship Hotline is open for you. Sunday night.

53
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,079
Speaker 2: Not always an easy night, although Monday is a day

54
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 2: off for a lot of people. With it being Martin.

55
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 3: Luther King Day, weird time to six thirty six thirty.

56
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 2: So obviously you have football viewing priorities this weekend, and

57
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 2: maybe something's getting in the way, whether it's work, life

58
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 2: in general, a relative's birthday, party, life events, some anniversary

59
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 2: party you got invited to when the game's on. What

60
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 2: to do? Fear not. Steve and I have your answers.

61
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 2: So if you have a dilemma with this weekend's Bills game,

62
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 2: you let us know at eight h three five fifty

63
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 2: one eighty eight five fifty two five point fifty and

64
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 2: we will have a solution ready for you. We should

65
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 2: also get to the Bills practice updates, which are presented

66
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 2: by Lee Coom. You're a Lake here College of Osteopathic Medicine,

67
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 2: and the news I think on the whole is pretty good.

68
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 2: Ray Davis is still in the concussion protocol, so that's

69
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 2: where we'll leave him and his situation. We'll check the

70
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: Wednesday injury report because if he has any participation whatsoever

71
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 2: in practice, it would signify that he is already in

72
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 2: stage four of the five step return to play protocol.

73
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 2: That would be outstanding if he's participating in any capacity

74
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 2: in practice today, So we'll wait on the Wednesday injury

75
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 2: report for that. But Brandon Codrington good to go off

76
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 2: the hamstring injury that kept him out of last week's game.

77
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,799
Speaker 2: That is good news. So Buffalo's primary return man should

78
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 2: be back in the lineup Sunday against the Ravens. And

79
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 2: then Alec Anderson, who's their sixth offensive lineman in their

80
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 2: jumbo package, is going to practice today on a limited basis,

81
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 2: still working his way back from that calf injury that

82
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 2: he suffered in the game. He suffers the calf injury

83
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 2: he leaves the game, but then he came back, so well,

84
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 2: hopefully it's not too bad.

85
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 3: That's strange. Yeah, maybe it was just a strain pop

86
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 3: a calf muscle. It's like any other pulled muscle you

87
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 3: can't come back and play on. Yeah, it's gonna get

88
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 3: worse real quick.

89
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 2: So hopefully it's just a strain of some kind. We

90
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 2: don't know the nature of it. But coach on Monday,

91
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 2: I know, called him day to day and now he's

92
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 2: practicing on a limited basis today, So I would tend

93
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 2: to think it's relatively mild in terms of the strain

94
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 2: or sprain.

95
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 3: It's a hard time a year in the locker room guys.

96
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 3: I mean, think about it. They've poured all their efforts

97
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 3: for years into moments like these, these games, and they

98
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 3: all want to they don't care if they've got a

99
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 3: busted femur. They want to try and play right right, Yeah,

100
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 3: but they want to play. So it's and it's hard

101
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 3: at this time for coaching staffs who you know, their

102
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 3: jobs are on the line too, and it's their opportunity

103
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 3: as well to sit a guy. Yeah, it's it's it's

104
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 3: tense to have to tell a guy you're gonna sit down.

105
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 2: We obviously all eyes will be on Zay Flowers. Pertaining

106
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,799
Speaker 2: to Baltimore's injury report suffered a knee injury in Week eighteen,

107
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 2: missed the wild card game last week with that injury.

108
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 2: And John Harbaugh, who addressed the media on Mond Monday,

109
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 2: I think it was essentially said he's in wait and

110
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 2: ce mode with Zay Flowers, who, by the way, is

111
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 2: their leading receiver. Not nothing, and whether he practices today, tomorrow, Friday,

112
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 2: we'll have to keep an eye on that because that

113
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 2: would be a loss for them. Led the team in receptions,

114
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,359
Speaker 2: led the team in receiving yards, and is going to

115
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 2: the Pro Bowl. So it's a Pro Bowl receiver out

116
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 2: of your lineup. That's not nothing. And then on top

117
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 2: of that, Steve and I kind of uncovered a return

118
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:59,119
Speaker 2: game issue concerning the Ravens. Number one former Bills return

119
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 2: man Deontay was slated to be their primary return man

120
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: this season, but he's been dealing with injuries, has been

121
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 2: out of the lineup, and they had Steven Simms handling returns.

122
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 2: Punt return specifically of late, it hasn't gone well.

123
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 3: He dropped, he muffed one last week. They it wasn't catastrophic.

124
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 3: They got the ball back, but the wins were whipping

125
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 3: around and you know, and he was. And also he

126
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 3: caught one or tried to feel them one deep and

127
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 3: was deep in his own end as well. So you know,

128
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 3: it has not been stellar. And of course you know,

129
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 3: Justin Tuck has been he's got it together now since

130
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 3: week fourteen, he hasn't. He's been perfect, just like Bass

131
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 3: has been perfect since week fifteen. So both those guys

132
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 3: seemed to be rounding into form. But you think in

133
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 3: the return game and then Justin Tuck at the at

134
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 3: you know, having you hopefully get in it together. It's

135
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 3: they've got some issues on special teams that they're worried about. Yeah,

136
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 3: although nothing seems to be catastrophic, it just seems to be,

137
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 3: you know, if you catch the ball, you're fine, kind

138
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 3: of thing for their punt returner.

139
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 2: Something bears watching. Though. Hardy has a chance to get

140
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 2: back in the lineup this week, but that's kind I'm

141
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 2: kind of curious as to how that will all look.

142
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 2: If he's practicing this week, he better look good in practice. Otherwise, sure,

143
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 2: after that long layoff, they're not going to throw him

144
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 2: back in the lineup in a playoff game.

145
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true, except that you know, the.

146
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 2: Guy that was filling in for him didn't look much.

147
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 3: Better, right, right, So the choice, you know that go

148
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 3: with the veteran, Plan A or Plan B doesn't seem

149
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 3: to be different. Go with Plan A, and nobody's going

150
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 3: to be fresher than that guy. You know, he'll be

151
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 3: ready to go, He'll feel good. Yeah, and that's that's

152
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 3: the big at this point of part of the season.

153
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 3: That's as big as you can ask for.

154
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. Biggest thing Deontay Hardy did in the Bill's uniform

155
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 2: was returned to punt ninety five yards in the Week

156
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 2: eighteen game to flip that game on its head. I mean,

157
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 2: that was a turning point in that football game that

158
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 2: the Bills had to win and that ultimately led to

159
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 2: a tie ball game because the Bills were behind, tied

160
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 2: it up with a ninety five yard pund return for

161
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 2: a touchdown. He's now on the wrong sideline this week

162
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 2: in Baltimore, Let's go around the NFL presented by Kaleida Health,

163
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 2: the official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills. A lot

164
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 2: of coaching cycle news, Steve, a lot of coaching cycle news,

165
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 2: and we'll start with Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, who

166
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 2: is interviewing for the Bears head coaching job today and

167
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 2: the Jets head coaching job tomorrow. Smith was previously a

168
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 2: head coach in Atlanta for three seasons. Former Cowboys head

169
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 2: coach Mike McCarthy also interviewing with the Bears today. Chicago

170
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 2: most recently finished up a head coaching interview with former

171
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 2: Stanford head coach David Shaw. Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph's

172
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 2: going to interview today with the Jets for their head

173
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 2: coaching vacancy, so the Bears and Jets really busy today. Meanwhile,

174
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 2: the Jets announced late yesterday that they have completed their

175
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,439
Speaker 2: interview with Bill's assistant GM Brian Gain, for their vacant

176
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 2: GM position. Gain began his NFL personnel career as a

177
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 2: scout with the Jets, so that's the connection there. Former

178
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 2: Jets coach Robert Sala is expected to interview with the

179
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 2: Cowboys for their head coaching job. No date has been

180
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 2: set yet. Salah has already interviewed with the Jaguars and

181
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 2: he has a Raiders interview coming up soon and talked

182
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 2: to the forty nine ers about their defensive coordinator vacancy.

183
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 2: So Sala a busy guy who is in demand right now.

184
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 3: He and the Niners, San Francisco's DC, that's where he

185
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 3: came from to coach the Jets. It would be just

186
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 3: a return home for him, back to the same locker room,

187
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 3: same team, same staff that he left four years ago. Yeah,

188
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 3: and yeah, so there's I get that. What do you

189
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 3: think Brighton?

190
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 2: Is he.

191
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 3: At the top of your list?

192
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 2: I don't know top what is it? Okay, here's something

193
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 2: missing there for me. I can't put on top two?

194
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 3: Is he a top three? Is he a top ten?

195
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 3: How how far down your list is Robert Sala?

196
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's on my list. Really, the

197
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 2: reason I say that is because I think he's a

198
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 2: very good coordinator. I'm not one hundred percent certain he

199
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 2: can lead the way you need a head coach to lead.

200
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 2: Because you heard about all the stuff going on in

201
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 2: the Jets' locker room end of last year, during the

202
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:33,839
Speaker 2: year this year, and I don't know, I don't know.

203
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 2: There's there's and maybe it's the Jets dysfunction as an

204
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 2: organization more than it is Sala. Maybe that's the case.

205
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like there's something missing there

206
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 2: from a leadership perspective. There's a ton of great coordinators

207
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 2: in this league and they get head coaching jobs and

208
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 2: it doesn't work because the job is a completely different

209
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 2: description than what you do as a coordinator, and some

210
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 2: guys can't do it as well as they coordinate.

211
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 3: Some organizations make it easier on the head coach than others.

212
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 2: Yes, and that's why I'm saying maybe it's the Jets

213
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 2: dysfunction that is contributing to my opinion here. And there's

214
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,199
Speaker 2: no way for me to differentiate the two because I'm

215
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 2: not in the building. I don't see what goes on

216
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 2: there every day.

217
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,839
Speaker 3: And I how would it have gone differently for a

218
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 3: guy like Robert Sala had he been coaching like the

219
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 3: Jacksonville Jaguars or the Dallas Cowboys and two inside of

220
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 3: specta acts. But we have to think about it though,

221
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 3: that's what you gotta do. He's talking about the cow different.

222
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 2: He's in those two jobs.

223
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 3: I'm thinking about extremes in situations. Right. You're in Jacksonville,

224
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 3: which is at the moment off the radar in the NFL,

225
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 3: and the Cowboys who are always the center dot of

226
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 3: the radar, and the Bears, who are always an afterthought.

227
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 3: All these situations. None of these situations is going to

228
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,199
Speaker 3: be perfect. That's why they're looking for a head coach.

229
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 2: I don't know.

230
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 3: I don't know how far down the list you go to,

231
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 3: who you Mike McCarthy, then salah for you.

232
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy's nowhere near my list, right.

233
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, so nowhere right, No, I'm kind of with

234
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 3: you there.

235
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, not no, yeah, I can't do that.

236
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 3: And what about the and they're trying to they're starting

237
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 3: to recycle these guys too. Arthur Smith, who was well

238
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 3: regarded when he got the job in Atlanta, it did

239
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 3: not go well. That's another guy that's I didn't even

240
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 3: know if he's a good coordinator. It has not gone

241
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 3: well for anybody else who's coached Atlanta though.

242
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 2: That is true. That is true.

243
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 3: But they might just be picking the wrong guys time

244
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 3: and time again.

245
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 2: They can't get well, Like I don't know. Yeah, the

246
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 2: long history of failure there certainly doesn't speak well of

247
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 2: how ownership operates with coaches.

248
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 3: But that's and it's all part of the conversation. It's

249
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 3: gonna be interesting. There's six six, well or we're six

250
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 3: now there's five. I think we're back up to six

251
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 3: because of the Cowboys job open. It went from six

252
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:02,959
Speaker 3: to five and then back to six.

253
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, because Rabel took the Patriots right before before. It

254
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 2: would have been number one on my list.

255
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,679
Speaker 3: Rabel. Yeah, I kind of agree with that. He we

256
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 3: both he was at the top of the list for me.

257
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 3: Well who's now who? I mean, you know the names.

258
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 3: I'm not gaga over anybody.

259
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Aaron Glenn has never been a head

260
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 2: coach before. I like what he's done, but I don't

261
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 2: know if he's head coaching material. Neither's the offensive guy Detroit, Yeah,

262
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 2: Ben Johnson, I don't know. I don't know. At least

263
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 2: you know there's a track record.

264
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 3: Aaron Glenn is the kind of guy who, Yes, he's

265
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 3: that guy, he's one of those guys. He's a leader,

266
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 3: you know, he's not he would seem to, doesn't seem

267
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 3: it would not be. He would not be intimidated in

268
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 3: any way, shape or form by that job, you know

269
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 3: what I mean, where he'd come in and with soft

270
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 3: shoes and say, hey, you know, I'm just trying to

271
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 3: get started here. Let's do you know, none of that.

272
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 3: He's not going to do that. He's more of the

273
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 3: he saw Dan Campbell do it like Detroit. I think

274
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 3: that's key experience.

275
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean that's why I think some of

276
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 2: these jobs are going to take a while to phil.

277
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 2: And I'll say this because they're probably waiting for some

278
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 2: of these guys still in the playoffs. Want to sit

279
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 2: down face to face with them. You can't do that

280
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 2: even next week as long as they're still in the playoffs.

281
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 3: So I'll say this too. In years past, you've heard

282
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 3: rumblings about, wow, we got to get a head start.

283
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 3: Let's fire our head coach here with a month ago

284
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 3: in the season. We're going to do it at the

285
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 3: end of the season and we'll get a head start

286
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 3: on interviews and all that stuff so we can get

287
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 3: our guy and get things rolling quicker. That's number fifty

288
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 3: on my important list. Get the right guy. Guy. I

289
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 3: don't care if you get the right guy in May

290
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 3: after you've drafted. If he's the right guy, he's going

291
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 3: to maximize the guys you have in your building. He's

292
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 3: gonna install you guys play. You know. I just think

293
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 3: it's crucial to get the right guy and for all

294
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 3: the right reasons. I don't care if it's a week

295
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 3: after the Super Bowl or two weeks before the Super

296
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 3: Bowl like the Patriots have done. You got to get

297
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 3: the right guy.

298
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, David Shaw is kind of interesting that he's getting

299
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 2: these head This is second head coaching interview of doing

300
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 2: did one with the Bears. He's been a head coach before,

301
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 2: but it's been at the college level. But at least

302
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 2: he's run a entire football team once, you know. Yeah,

303
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 2: he'sn't really saying that.

304
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 3: It seems like he's been away for a minute.

305
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't think he's coached at Stanford in the

306
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 2: last two years now. So yeah, and he pulled the ripcord.

307
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 2: I think he stepped out. He ain't get fired if

308
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 2: I remember right. Lion's running back David Montgomery, who was

309
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 2: injured in the Week fifteen game against the Bills and

310
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 2: hasn't played since, listed as a full participant in practice

311
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 2: on Detroit's estimated injury report, so it appears likely that

312
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 2: he will play in the Lions divisional playoff against Washington

313
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 2: on Saturday. It looks like they're also going to get

314
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 2: cornerback Terry and Arnold back from a foot injury suffered

315
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 2: in a week eighteen. So Lions getting healthier. I think

316
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 2: it was like an MCL.

317
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 3: Spring And I'll say this to the Lions. You talk

318
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 3: about a team that needed a bye week, man, it

319
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 3: was the Lions. I don't know how much healthier. Look

320
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 3: they will get on the defensive side of the ball,

321
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,959
Speaker 3: but obviously Montgomery's gonna help them offensively. Their defense has

322
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 3: been what has you know, crumbled?

323
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, it looks like they're getting a cornerback though

324
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,959
Speaker 2: Terry and Arnold and he started for them all year.

325
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 2: He's their first round pick. Yeah, So getting healthier, and

326
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 2: that's where the bye helps, not to mention the fact

327
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 2: you're playing one less game and you automatically advanced to

328
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 2: the divisional round. Other news, the National Football League NOWS

329
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 2: today that the Indianapolis Colts will play as the designated

330
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 2: team in the first ever regular season game in Berlin

331
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,439
Speaker 2: as part of the twenty twenty five International Games. The

332
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five NFL Berlin game played at Olympic Stadium

333
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 2: as part of a multi year commitment to playing games

334
00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 2: in the sports metropolis, NFL played five I have American

335
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,360
Speaker 2: Bowl games at the Olympic Stadium between ninety and ninety four.

336
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 2: Steve was in one of those ye and it was

337
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 2: also home to NFL Europe's Berlin Thunder from two thousand

338
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 2: and three to two thousand and seven. Colts one of

339
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 2: those teams that got marketing rights given to them for Germany.

340
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 2: So no surprise that they're picked as a team to

341
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 2: be designated to play in Germany here next year. Bills,

342
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 2: in case you're wondering, do not play the Colts next year,

343
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 2: So don't worry at least now yet about them going

344
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 2: to play in Germany.

345
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, next year is one of those games. The years

346
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 3: as well where the Bills only have eight home games.

347
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:36,680
Speaker 2: No, I think they have nine.

348
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 3: I thought they had eight this year.

349
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 2: No, I think they have nine. Thought nine next year?

350
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 3: Had all the home games this year?

351
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 2: No, because our cross game was Detroit and that was

352
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 2: on the road. Our Cross conference seventeenth game was at Detroit.

353
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,120
Speaker 2: So I believe we have nine home games.

354
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 3: So we only had an eight home games? What am

355
00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 3: I thinking? I thought for sure this was one of

356
00:18:59,440 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 3: those years.

357
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 2: I was No, it's the previous year.

358
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 3: That assumption for months.

359
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,959
Speaker 2: Well, I'm glad we fixed that, So now you're prepared

360
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 2: for twenty five now that the home slate has been

361
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 2: completely played.

362
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 3: Dope, nothing is that that not that it is that important.

363
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 2: But yeah, but we know where this is moving. I

364
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 2: mean the NFL clearly at some point, because Commissioner Goodell

365
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 2: has said it wants sixteen games played overseas every season,

366
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,680
Speaker 2: which would mean every single football team, unless Jacksonville plays

367
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,919
Speaker 2: two games over there like they have, will play an

368
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,880
Speaker 2: overseas game every year.

369
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 3: I just not a fac I hope they don't expand

370
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 3: to put a.

371
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 2: Well I think that's coming down the pike too, because

372
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 2: he said, at some point in time, we envision an

373
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 2: entire division of teams playing in Europe. Now, logistically, you're

374
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 2: gonna have to explain that one to me, because I

375
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 2: don't know how that works.

376
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 3: You just plug it into AI. It'll be fine.

377
00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 2: Don't tell you what fuck it into a Okay.

378
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 3: They'll figure all that out. That see to me, that

379
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 3: would put you at thirty six teams eighteen game schedule.

380
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 3: You'd be back to the way it was when you

381
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 3: had sixteen games and thirty two teams, where you know

382
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 3: you have half that the regular season is half the

383
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 3: number of games. You have teams, but I don't you

384
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:26,199
Speaker 3: put one at London, Berlin, Frankfurt, Barcelona, maybe Barcelona or

385
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 3: Madeir or Madrid or Paris.

386
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think the French give a hoot about

387
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 2: American football. Okay, I'd skip over.

388
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 3: The first care. I mean, what do I care? You know,

389
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 3: I'll be in my dotage next week. I don't know

390
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 3: if it would have to be four teams over there.

391
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, and okay, so you got the division games squared away,

392
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 2: but how you playing the rest of the league? And

393
00:20:56,080 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like, that's that's the logistical issue,

394
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 2: I think.

395
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 3: So I agree and think about this too. Anybody who

396
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 3: goes over there, you've got to have everybody on the

397
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 3: team's got to have passports. And it's not a big

398
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 3: thing in Buffalo. Everybody's got a passport in Buffalo.

399
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 2: But every team that goes over there is gonna have

400
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 2: a need to have a buye before or after that game.

401
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 3: To me, it's a logistical They can stay over there,

402
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 3: play two come back.

403
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 2: That inevitably will happen. I think I think that's almost inevitable.

404
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 3: So you might go over there on your European you

405
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 3: go over there for a month. You set up shop.

406
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 2: Just play them all in a row once.

407
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, set up shop. You have your own facility over

408
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 3: there to practice in.

409
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot of extra cost, Yes, it is. Uh.

410
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 2: The Cleveland Browns are promoting tight ends coach and pass

411
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 2: game specialist Tommy rees to offensive coordinator, the two sides

412
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 2: reaching agreement for Reese to replace Kent to replace Ken Dorsey,

413
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 2: who was fired after one season on the job. It's

414
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 2: been a revolving door at OC for the Browns. Was

415
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 2: Alex van Pelt two years ago, Ken Dorsey this year,

416
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,919
Speaker 2: well for at least three quarters of the year, and

417
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 2: now it'll be Tommy Reeves. So good luck, Tommy. I

418
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 2: hope you can last longer than the last couple of gains.

419
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:20,159
Speaker 3: Well, right, it's quickly becoming a not highly sought after position.

420
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 2: And he's not going to have Deshaun Watson, which may

421
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 2: end up being a good thing because he tore his

422
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:30,400
Speaker 2: achilles again. That was the setback he sustained in his rehabilitation.

423
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 2: He ruptured it again, so he's probably not playing this

424
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:38,959
Speaker 2: year anyway. So you're going to resign Jameis Winston. Are

425
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 2: you going with Dorian Thompson Robinson, what are you doing

426
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 2: at quarterback? So that's the big question for the Browns

427
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:52,159
Speaker 2: this offseason. The Houston Texans waived wide receiver Deontay Johnson

428
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 2: as they prepare for their Divisional round playoff game on

429
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 2: Saturday against the Chiefs. Head coach Tomiko Ryans, when asked

430
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 2: about it, said, unfortunately with the it didn't work out.

431
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 2: We're on to the Chiefs. Apparently, after the wild card

432
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:08,920
Speaker 2: playoff game, which was a win over the Chargers, Johnson

433
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:14,199
Speaker 2: was sulking in the locker room, sat fully dressed at

434
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 2: his locker, staring in frustration because of a lack of

435
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 2: playing time and targets. Running Back Joe Mixon. Linebacker Aziz

436
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 2: al Shire tried to comfort him and encourage him, but

437
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:30,440
Speaker 2: Johnson only played fifteen offensive snaps, got only one target

438
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 2: at a catch for twelve yards, and he was ticked

439
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 2: off about it. It's like, dude, you just got there

440
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 2: a week ago. Did you really think you were going

441
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 2: to be a major part of the game plan.

442
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 3: What the heck's wrong with this guy? Was it third

443
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 3: team in this year, in the third team this season

444
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 3: that there's something there?

445
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 2: What you think?

446
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 3: I have no idea what it is. I'm not saying it.

447
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 2: Was in Carolina, got traded to Baltimore. There was an

448
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 2: issue there in Baltimore where he remember, he refused to

449
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 2: go in the game.

450
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,119
Speaker 3: It was it was going to be a loss. He

451
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 3: was to Philly.

452
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 2: They were losing a Philadelphia the Ravens were and they're

453
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 2: like Deontay when he just sub in, now I'm good.

454
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 2: So they said, okay. ABC Later they waived him. Texans

455
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,679
Speaker 2: picked him upcause they lost Tank Dell to a horrific

456
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 2: knee injury. They need a depth. They bring him in.

457
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 2: They actually dress him for the playoff game and he plays,

458
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 2: but he's not happy with his amount of playing time

459
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 2: and is sulking in the locker room after the team

460
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:26,160
Speaker 2: wins the game.

461
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 3: Bye bye.

462
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 2: How hard is it going to be for him to

463
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:32,719
Speaker 2: get a job next year?

464
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 3: You think he'll be a camp body, veteran minimum he'll

465
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 3: get a chance, a good player. It's got some stuff,

466
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 3: but they'll know. I mean, he'll be on a short leash.

467
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 3: And what do you do he will be. He will

468
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 3: not get he won't get a handful of offers. I

469
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,399
Speaker 3: don't think he'll get sun No, man.

470
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 2: Just swallow your pride just for a second. Man, come on,

471
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 2: like your team won the game. I know, I don't

472
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 2: get it. Oh well, and then finally some NFL draft news,

473
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 2: University of Texas quarterback Quinn Yours declared himself eligible for

474
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty five NFL Draft. Viewers led Texas to

475
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 2: the National semi final before they fell to Ohio State

476
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:21,120
Speaker 2: last week. You know, in Arch Manning is ready.

477
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 3: To take over Texas anyway, does Quinn youwers have eligibility left?

478
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:25,120
Speaker 2: I believe he does.

479
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 1: Yeah.

480
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,639
Speaker 2: I think he's a red shirt junior. I think I

481
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 2: believe I have that right. So he did have eligibility remaining.

482
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 2: But you know, what are you gonna do? Got Arch

483
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 2: Manning in the pipeline there?

484
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 3: I haven't seen a college quarterback but I like yet

485
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 3: in this year.

486
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 2: Okay, that's fine. See Yours has skills. Yeah, everybody's got

487
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 2: you know, deficiencies to their game, I guess. But you

488
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 2: know that's why they call him rookies. So well, we're

489
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 2: not diving headlong in that into that steve until we

490
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 2: get to the combine. We don't have to do that,

491
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 2: Thank god, I don't need to do four months of

492
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 2: draft prep.

493
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 3: Well we don't need to do four months of quarterback

494
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 3: evaluation either.

495
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 2: Well that too exactly. So that's around the NFL presented

496
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:21,880
Speaker 2: by Coalida Health topic of discussion for you today. We've

497
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 2: got essentially this matchup on the radar, and we want

498
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,679
Speaker 2: to know specifically what matchup within this game on Sunday

499
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,719
Speaker 2: Night has you most intrigued, like one you'll be paying

500
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,719
Speaker 2: attention to pretty closely. So you let us know what

501
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 2: that matchup is in this game Sunday Night between the

502
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 2: Bills and the Ravens. Eighth three h five fifty one

503
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 2: eighty eight five fifty two, five fifty the number to

504
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 2: get on board. And we have open lines for you

505
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 2: right now. If you don't have time to give us

506
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 2: a call, you can always hit us up on the

507
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 2: tweetsheet at one Bills Live. We don't probably don't have

508
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 2: time now to pass along coach McDermott's comments as we

509
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 2: took up a little too much time here in segment

510
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 2: number one, but we will play some of coach's comments

511
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 2: from his press conference about an hour ago prior to

512
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 2: the team's practice today. As I thought there were some

513
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,600
Speaker 2: interesting questions asked of coach, but there was I forgot

514
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,120
Speaker 2: to mention this in Bill's notes. There was a practice

515
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:27,919
Speaker 2: squad transaction today. Bills added Anthony Brown to the practice squad.

516
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 2: He was the quarterback that was here for the final

517
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 2: preseason game if you remember, and then promptly waived. He

518
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 2: is back on the practice squad. The Bills released Ilianku

519
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 2: to make room for him on the practice squad. The reason,

520
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 2: the main reasonings here is to give Buffalo's defense a

521
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 2: practice squad look that mimics Lamar Jackson. They believe his

522
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 2: skill set is close enough to give Buffalo's defense a

523
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 2: good look in practice to get them ready for Lamar.

524
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,080
Speaker 2: Coach pretty much confirmed.

525
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 3: That, yeah, ye had yeah, exactly, And they gotta gotta try,

526
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 3: gotta do it. He's somebody who can throw it and

527
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 3: can run and do it and it's not complicated, but

528
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 3: you got to put a full effort in and and

529
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 3: I'm sure he's gonna come in and work hard to

530
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 3: do it. I mean, it's it's an audition, just like

531
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 3: it is every time.

532
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, So that's kind of the story there as far

533
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 2: as roster moves today, and you know, we'll see how

534
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 2: that goes. We have to step aside here because we

535
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:32,680
Speaker 2: are up against the break. But when we come back,

536
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 2: we'll get to more of your phone calls and we'll

537
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 2: also check in with coach McDermott's comments from just about

538
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 2: an hour ago. Here on One Bill's Live, presented by

539
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 2: Collid of Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio Game Day Mentality

540
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 2: presented by Best Self, Best Self Behavioral Health Well, the

541
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 2: official mental health partner of the Buffalo Bills. And I

542
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 2: guess the mentality this week, Steve has to deal with

543
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 2: these players not really allowing the happenings of Week four

544
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 2: creep into their heads. You got to go into this

545
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 2: game confidence.

546
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 3: Right, They'll feel differently and and it'll it will be

547
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 3: highly motivating not to have another game like that. So

548
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 3: the Bills will come in with their hair on fire

549
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 3: a little bit. I think trying to come out of

550
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 3: the gate and make a quick statement early about hey,

551
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 3: it's not going to be like that today. You're going

552
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 3: to find a different way to beat us. Certainly it'll

553
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 3: make a difference the game being in Buffalo rather than Baltimore.

554
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 3: These teams, and certainly Baltimore has nothing to hide. They're

555
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 3: not they don't even feel they may or may not

556
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 3: feel like they have any new trick they need to pull.

557
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 3: They probably got to feel like they've got enough in

558
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 3: their arts and we're going to do what we do

559
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 3: and that's what good teams do. They don't have to

560
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 3: come up with anything. The Bills I have to show

561
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,320
Speaker 3: up with the thing that they're going to do that's new,

562
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 3: rather than they're going to show up with a huge effort.

563
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 3: I would think. I think they're going to come out

564
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 3: with an absolute attitude, particularly on the defensive side of

565
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 3: the ball, and you know see where that takes them,

566
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 3: but that's where that's where you're gonna be. This is

567
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 3: one of those games where you know it's all or

568
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 3: nothing and the Bills need to I think they will

569
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 3: think they need to come out and make a statement

570
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 3: of this game is going to be different this week

571
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 3: rather than was the Week four matchup.

572
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 2: And as we know because we've seen it, there's evidence

573
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 2: of it. When the Ravens are ahead, they just roll.

574
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're good front runners.

575
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, when they're behind on the scoreboard, things change a

576
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 2: little bit. They don't look as in, they don't play

577
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 2: as invincible as they appear to feel when they're ahead

578
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 2: on the score.

579
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 3: That doesn't happen very often. So no, it's not it's

580
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 3: not a thing here. You know that game four, that

581
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 3: week four. Here's something that fans may not think about

582
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 3: too much. This used to happen even when I played.

583
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 3: You'll be out there and you spend so much. Every

584
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 3: guy in there roster spends so much time watching that game.

585
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 3: I've had guys like in postgame refer to each on

586
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 3: different teams come together after the game and say would

587
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 3: talk about plays that they saw in preparation for this

588
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 3: game with each other, that they saw in the film,

589
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 3: and they would know exactly what they're saying. You know

590
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 3: that play that that past play in the third quarter.

591
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah I knew you were No, yeah, I

592
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 3: knew you were gonna They both know exactly that play

593
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 3: they're talking because they have seen the film so much

594
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 3: they that it's ingrained in both of them. From different teams,

595
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 3: they've both been watching the same film, one from the

596
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 3: offensive side, one from the defensive side, and they chit

597
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:43,719
Speaker 3: chat post game about watching it and getting ready, you know,

598
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 3: stuff like That's that's how ingrained this whole thing gets

599
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 3: when you come back and division games are huge about that, right,

600
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 3: Something fans might not think about but it's a real

601
00:31:55,560 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 3: it's a real thing. You almost memorize that film you

602
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 3: watch it so much.

603
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 2: Game Day mentality presented by best self. Let's go to

604
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 2: the phones at ATO three oh five fifty one, eight

605
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 2: of eight, five fifty two, five point fifty. What matchup

606
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 2: has you the most intrigued in Sunday's game? Bill's Ravens

607
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 2: you let us know at ATO three oh five fifty

608
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 2: to Tim in Rochester first today, what do you got

609
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 2: for us?

610
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 4: Tim Well? I guess you guys already answered this question

611
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 4: because you just talked about not letting the same thing

612
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 4: happen again. And the two things were containing Derrick Henry

613
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 4: and also protecting Josh Allen because he got sacked three

614
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 4: times in the last game. So a lot of the

615
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 4: stuff you already answered, but just maybe rid rate on

616
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 4: what plan are we going to have to contain Derrick

617
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 4: Henry and how are we going to protect Josh Allen better? Yeah,

618
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:48,959
Speaker 4: I'll line up and listening to you.

619
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 3: One of the things about that first meeting, the Bills

620
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 3: came out and this is an infamously this is where

621
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 3: Joe Brady tried the trick play and the Bills were

622
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 3: about were going in and they were moving the ball

623
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 3: and they finally got some twenty right and they were

624
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 3: going to come in and looked like they were going

625
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 3: to take it in and score. And then they tried

626
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 3: that trick play and tried to hit them for a

627
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 3: big one and it backfired badly and they turned the

628
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 3: ball over and it was the game was over. Baltimore

629
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 3: went scored, it was twenty eight ten, and then you know,

630
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 3: that was it. The Bills looked like they were getting

631
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 3: on track offensively for the first time in the game.

632
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 3: Came out right before halftime and then after halftime and

633
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 3: kind of like, okay, here we go. Now we've got

634
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 3: it to me. And we've always talked about this with

635
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 3: Bob Babbage and also Joe Brady, about their ability to

636
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 3: adjust and do better as the game rolls on, to adjust,

637
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 3: particularly at halftime for the defense, and how the Bills

638
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 3: are defense has been much much more effective after halftime.

639
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 3: None of that seemed to hold true in this game

640
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 3: against Baltimore the first time, and if it did, when

641
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,239
Speaker 3: they did finally start to get it together offensively, they

642
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 3: shot themselves in the foot. I think this might be

643
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 3: one of those games where both the defense of an

644
00:33:55,760 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 3: offensive corner. Babbage and Brady got to adjust faster and

645
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 3: better in this game than you have been able to

646
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 3: up to this point. Yeah.

647
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 2: And then, just to answer your question about protecting Josh,

648
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 2: part of the reason protecting him became more difficult was

649
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 2: because the game was lopsided and you went into all

650
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 2: out pass mode, which allowed Baltimore's pass rushers to just

651
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 2: tee off. I would also argue that Buffalo's offensive line

652
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 2: is significantly better than it was in Week four in

653
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 2: terms of how they're playing right now, both running it

654
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 2: and passing it. And look, they played the number one

655
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 2: sack defense in football last week held them to two sacks,

656
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 2: one in which Josh held the ball for almost seven seconds,

657
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,240
Speaker 2: which was for all intents and purposes of coverage sack.

658
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 2: And then on top of that, now you're playing a

659
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 2: team that's second in the league in sacks with fifty four,

660
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,720
Speaker 2: So you're playing every bit as good a pass rushing team,

661
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 2: and you know you've I think the way the offensive

662
00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 2: line is playing right now, I'm confident that they'll be

663
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:03,399
Speaker 2: able to to block it up effectively. So the way

664
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 2: the old line is playing is what gives me confidence.

665
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 2: Now there's always gonna be schemes where maybe they get

666
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:09,280
Speaker 2: you on a blitz.

667
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, this you can tell when this game

668
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,880
Speaker 3: it was twenty one to three at one point in

669
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 3: Baltimore and the Ravens were sending people and they were

670
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 3: coming free and chasing them, so they were it was a.

671
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:26,280
Speaker 2: Very aggressive.

672
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, all hands on deck for the Bills offense, and

673
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,399
Speaker 3: they just weren't just did not play well. They didn't

674
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 3: have any answers. And you know you've got to you're

675
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,760
Speaker 3: gonna watch that film and man it for Bills players.

676
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 3: It's gonna make you sick how poorly they executed.

677
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:43,399
Speaker 2: I don't think that'll happen.

678
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's that's more execution. I mean, right, yeah,

679
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 3: I Baltimore is gonna come out. Man, They're gonna be

680
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,359
Speaker 3: flying high. They're gonna they're gonna match that. Yeah, you've

681
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 3: got to punch them, and they're gonna try and punch

682
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 3: you in the mouth.

683
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 2: At home.

684
00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:00,720
Speaker 3: This is the first time in eighteen play off games

685
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 3: and home playoff games in Buffalo Bill's history where they've

686
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 3: been an underdog.

687
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 2: Haven't been an underdog since January first, nineteen sixty seven,

688
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:11,399
Speaker 2: when they hosted the Chiefs for the AFL title game.

689
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 2: So that was the last time they were a underdog

690
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,319
Speaker 2: at home in the playoffs. We want to pivot now

691
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,839
Speaker 2: to head coach Sean McDermott, who addressed the media about

692
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 2: an hour ago, give you some of the updates he

693
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:24,280
Speaker 2: provided in preparation for this game with the Ravens.

694
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 1: With this pretty much running game.

695
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 5: They obviously have chiefs players, but do they run a teams.

696
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 3: That's oh yeah.

697
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,720
Speaker 6: I mean they do a lot well offensively, very talented

698
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 6: team across the board offense, defense, and special teams, and

699
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 6: a highly decorated team at that. Offensively in this case,

700
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 6: the run games specifically, Ryan's your question, they do a

701
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 6: tremendous job. I mean they move people off the line

702
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:56,360
Speaker 6: of scrimmage, They outscheme people. I think coach Monkin is

703
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 6: one of the best out there. And what they do

704
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 6: in their offense in the run game in particular, and

705
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 6: and then you've got to be able to tackle Derrick Henry.

706
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,920
Speaker 6: So they do a really good job.

707
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 7: Kyle Hamilton, Hamilton is shipped to the back end really

708
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 7: coincided with their defensive resurgence this season.

709
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,359
Speaker 1: What do you see from him on film that he's

710
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:21,360
Speaker 1: done to help their defense.

711
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I think just tremendous player, right, I

712
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 6: mean he's only been in the league a handful of

713
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 6: years here, but a tremendous player to be able to

714
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 6: just play nickel and then go back to playing safety

715
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 6: and to play at the level he's playing at, uh,

716
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:39,880
Speaker 6: deserves all the recognition that he's gotten. So their their defense. Again,

717
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 6: I think the team as a whole, nine Pro bowlers.

718
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:45,320
Speaker 6: You know a lot of talent across the board on

719
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 6: the roster.

720
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,360
Speaker 2: With their defense, you guys should run the ball so

721
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:49,319
Speaker 2: well all year.

722
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 1: But how much of the concern is their size up front?

723
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:54,319
Speaker 7: This is probably one of the biggest defensive lines.

724
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,759
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, it is allan. They present a lot of

725
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 6: challenges to an offense. Offensive line in this case, you know,

726
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 6: being able to run the football. They're really big inside,

727
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,239
Speaker 6: like you mentioned, and you know they've they've put the

728
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,759
Speaker 6: they put the roster together. I'm sure with that in

729
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:11,840
Speaker 6: mind today.

730
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 8: But Brandon cottrid Tennessee saw proving or what are you expecting?

731
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 9: It looks like he's ready to go Sean previous to September.

732
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 10: Your teams that have a pretty good amount of success

733
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 10: limiting Derek is there anything you can take from you know,

734
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 10: those experiences where your deepsse was effective against him and

735
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 10: apply to this week.

736
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 6: I'd say it's small. Really the scheme is different, right.

737
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 11: Uh.

738
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 6: They present a lot of different challenges obviously with you know,

739
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 6: their passing game, but also with Lamar and in the

740
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 6: combination of Lamar and Derek. So we have a tremendous

741
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:47,360
Speaker 6: amount of respect for both of those players, and they're

742
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 6: they're hard to stop. It was it was a good

743
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 6: acquisition on their part. And you know, just that two

744
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 6: dimensional type of type of weaponry, if you will, is

745
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 6: tough on people.

746
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,319
Speaker 9: Obviously, so you're so different with their body and how

747
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,759
Speaker 9: they move around. Callin Forton is just the fundamentals of

748
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 9: tackling because you're two totally different guys carrying the ball.

749
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 6: This week, No, it is, it's big. I'm tackling is

750
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,800
Speaker 6: big every week for sure. This week to your point,

751
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,840
Speaker 6: and you add Hill to that equation in terms of

752
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:21,399
Speaker 6: the backfield weaponry and just you know what they're able

753
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,319
Speaker 6: to do in space and power and like I said,

754
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 6: very talented team. Six weeks is a yard better for

755
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 6: career than it was in the first four weeks of

756
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 6: the year.

757
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 3: I'm sure these explanations are a lot of things that

758
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 3: go into that, but in your mind, one of the

759
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 3: things that stand out about.

760
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 6: Why that improved is out you know, it's really the staff.

761
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:42,240
Speaker 6: I think it's done a really good job, the defensive

762
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:45,280
Speaker 6: staff led by Bobby, and then you know, the players

763
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 6: have really taken to the level of detail and technique

764
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 6: that you have to have. I think that's really where

765
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 6: it starts, and that's probably the line's share of it.

766
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 12: How do you look at the game in September and

767
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,359
Speaker 12: how do you use that now? Both from a film

768
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:01,239
Speaker 12: perspective and say motivation obviously motivation for the game, but

769
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 12: how do you look at that game now?

770
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 6: I mean, I think you always try and learn from

771
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 6: the past the best you can, and there's a lot

772
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,720
Speaker 6: of lessons that we were we were taught in that game.

773
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,600
Speaker 6: So we got to make sure that we have a

774
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 6: good week of practice, prepare like we need to prepare.

775
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 8: Starting to practice. Is there anything I know, Joshua Lamar

776
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 8: are very different players, but is there anything your defense

777
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,359
Speaker 8: can pull from gog Off against josh day to day

778
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 8: that will help them.

779
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:25,839
Speaker 10: In this game?

780
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 6: You know, I see the comparison or the parallels. They

781
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 6: probably end there though, in terms of the uniqueness of

782
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 6: both players, right and and not short changing either of them.

783
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 6: I mean they're they're they're the best. They're the top

784
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 6: shelf in the NFL, those two, and I mean it's

785
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 6: it probably isn't fair to compare them from a skill

786
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 6: set standpoint, although they are both extremely skilled, they're both

787
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:57,280
Speaker 6: unique in their own ways.

788
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 10: How much do you think your team has grown so sloop?

789
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,760
Speaker 10: We were especially referring to just the way the Rams

790
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 10: game went and you just can't he nearly came back

791
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 10: and and how he responded against the Lions and in

792
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 10: those type of big innovators. How do you think your

793
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:15,240
Speaker 10: team is growing in that sense?

794
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 6: Well, I think we try and grow every week, you know,

795
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 6: certainly after losses and as well though as after wins

796
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 6: as well. And like I said, we try and learn

797
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:29,400
Speaker 6: from the past every week, every every day, and you know,

798
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,160
Speaker 6: continue to try and grow us grow ourselves into in

799
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 6: the better people, in the better into a better team.

800
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 2: All right. That's head coach Sean McDermott addressing the media.

801
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:40,440
Speaker 2: We got to step aside. We're up against a break,

802
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:42,279
Speaker 2: but we'll take more of your phone calls as we're

Speaker 2: Look out for the bud Light Tailgate Tour that will

00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:41,440
Speaker 2: five fifty two five point fifty, where we are asking

819
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 2: you what matchup in Sunday Nights game has you most intrigued?

820
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 2: We go to Kevin in Hamburg. Next. What's up? Kevin?

821
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 14: Hey you guys, how you doing? Thanks for taking my call?

822
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 14: Sure I have the same. I'm gonna see a certain

823
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:59,320
Speaker 14: Bills defensive player I'm seeing I'm gonna see the Bills defense,

824
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,920
Speaker 14: the whole Bill defense, not certain people against Lamar and

825
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,480
Speaker 14: Derrick Henry. How are they gonna slow them down if

826
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 14: they started to get on a ram like a stampede.

827
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 14: How are they gonna not let them stampede all over

828
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 14: like they did in September when they just ran rough shot? Yea,

829
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 14: you know they made a defense with a bunch of

830
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:19,800
Speaker 14: college kids.

831
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get it, And that's a chief concern Sunday.

832
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,040
Speaker 2: But like Steve and I have been saying, I think

833
00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 2: they're gonna have a package in there to have an

834
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 2: answer for that that might be a little unconventional from

835
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 2: what they usually do. It probably won't be their bread

836
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 2: and butter for the whole game, but it'll certainly be

837
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,120
Speaker 2: in there. It'll be in the game plan somewhere.

838
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 3: If yeah, if that, if they're not gonna have a plan,

839
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 3: or if they're gonna allow or invite the Baltimore Ravens

840
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 3: to do exactly what they did in the first matchup

841
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,919
Speaker 3: and have no answer for it, it's you know, games already over.

842
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,360
Speaker 3: We're just waiting to find out and see it. I

843
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:54,719
Speaker 3: mean that, and the Ravens are gonna come in and

844
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 3: they'll they'll have Plan A. And if Plan A works,

845
00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 3: which is whatever handing the ball to Lamar to uh

846
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,840
Speaker 3: Derek Henry or you know, the read option with Lamar

847
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 3: waiting for everybody to sort through who it is and

848
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 3: getting six yards of pop or five yards of pop

849
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:12,799
Speaker 3: or nine yards of pop. Yeah, it's the game's already over.

850
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 2: I mean, they average over nine yards of play in

851
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:15,239
Speaker 2: that game.

852
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 3: If you if you're gonna let them do that, you know,

853
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 3: it doesn't matter what your plan is. So and Baltimore is,

854
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:26,320
Speaker 3: to their credit, and you know this is the truth,

855
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:28,719
Speaker 3: they're gonna come in with that plan as well. They're

856
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 3: gonna come in and try and hand it off. They're

857
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:31,560
Speaker 3: gonna try and run it. They're gonna try and do

858
00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 3: all that. Only if the bills stop it will they

859
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 3: even do anything else. And then if the bills do

860
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,600
Speaker 3: stop that, they're gonna have Plan B and Plan C

861
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 3: and Plan D. And they've won games this year with

862
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 3: all of those Plan B, C, and D, so you're

863
00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 3: gonna have to have an answer for those two. That's

864
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 3: that's what happens when you get to the division around

865
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 3: the NFL playoffs. Team's got a lot of ways they

866
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,799
Speaker 3: can win. You better have a plan for all of them,

867
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:56,880
Speaker 3: and your guys better show up and play well.

868
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 2: To DJ in Hamburg. Next, what's up, DJ?

869
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:04,800
Speaker 15: Yeah, hi, guys, good to talk to you before. I

870
00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:07,839
Speaker 15: got two important questions. But before I start, I just

871
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 15: wanted to mention I looked at my book. We had

872
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 15: eight home games this year. Yeah, okay, okay, yeah.

873
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 3: We just went over that. I didn't know if he

874
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 3: is that or is that a jab there? DJ? Did

875
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:20,280
Speaker 3: you hear us having that conversation?

876
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 15: No, I missed that.

877
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:23,800
Speaker 3: Oh, okay, don't worries.

878
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 15: Okay, I'm not gonna worry about I just mentioned it

879
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:32,840
Speaker 15: was the I'm concerned about Josh at the thumb, okay,

880
00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 15: and how that he had a nail miss and he

881
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 15: was bleeding a little bit, but that affect his accuracy.

882
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

883
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 15: Oh no, okay. Now, the next question I have is

884
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,960
Speaker 15: if Rave Davis can't go, will Frank Gore Junior be

885
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 15: brought up.

886
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:54,160
Speaker 2: I would say that's probably the most likely player elevation. Yes,

887
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 2: I don't know that he'll get the same kind of

888
00:45:56,960 --> 00:46:00,040
Speaker 2: playing time that we've seen Ray Davis get through the

889
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 2: course of the year, but he would probably be up yes,

890
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 2: because you don't want to go into a game with

891
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,880
Speaker 2: just two running backs, especially with the amount of playing

892
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:13,439
Speaker 2: time that both Ty Johnson and James Cook get through

893
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,439
Speaker 2: the course of a game. Can't go in with just two.

894
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,919
Speaker 2: You'd have to have a third come up right, So yeah,

895
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:23,920
Speaker 2: he would be the most logical candidate. Yes. To answer

896
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 2: your question to Gary on a sell, what's up Gary?

897
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 16: Hey, guys, how you all do him?

898
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:29,479
Speaker 3: Good? Good?

899
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,880
Speaker 16: I think the key to this game is the uh,

900
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 16: the defensive line off to the front on the front seven.

901
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:42,680
Speaker 16: They've got to get he plays right, especially the middle

902
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:47,440
Speaker 16: stop Hendry, keep the edges and try to cover you know,

903
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,200
Speaker 16: the middle of the fields. That's where Lamar really likes

904
00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 16: to throw it. That's where you kind of his strength

905
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:54,480
Speaker 16: is throwing the middlefield. You know, scenes force him to

906
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:57,160
Speaker 16: throw it outside. I don't respect the receivers and I

907
00:46:57,160 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 16: do not really respect the outside throwing. If he's in

908
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,000
Speaker 16: the middle of pocket throwing outside, if he bowled out

909
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:05,080
Speaker 16: and throws it down the field, you got problem because

910
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:06,640
Speaker 16: you could keep him in the middle of the field,

911
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:09,320
Speaker 16: which I know is really hard to do. If you

912
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,520
Speaker 16: keep him there, then we have a really good chance

913
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 16: to win this game.

914
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:16,759
Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough, Gary, I will say that, you know,

915
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:19,719
Speaker 2: the running book on Lamar is he's not as effective

916
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:21,759
Speaker 2: outside the numbers as he is in the middle of

917
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:25,160
Speaker 2: the field throwing the ball. He has gotten better thrown

918
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 2: outside the numbers. It used to be a real deficiency

919
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:31,319
Speaker 2: of his game, and to his credit, he's made it stronger. Yeah,

920
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,319
Speaker 2: I wouldn't call it a strength of his game, but

921
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,000
Speaker 2: it is better than it used to be. But you

922
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:37,719
Speaker 2: cannot give him the middle of the field in the

923
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,440
Speaker 2: passing game. He will cut you to shreds. He is

924
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 2: deadly throwing the ball in between the numbers, in the

925
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 2: middle of the field that has to be closed off

926
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:45,279
Speaker 2: to him.

927
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 3: Bill's fans, with the people who listen to this show up,

928
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,279
Speaker 3: you know you got it. Even from a distance. You

929
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 3: have to acknowledge. You know, we've all seen and talked

930
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,239
Speaker 3: about and trumpeted how much better Josh got early in

931
00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,239
Speaker 3: his career than twenty twenty. He kind of arrived and

932
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,479
Speaker 3: now he's been He's in the MVP conversation every year.

933
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,919
Speaker 3: Lamar's done that as well. Lamar won an MVP because

934
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 3: he could run the ball, and they kind of built

935
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 3: it all around him and with with Greg Roman in

936
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 3: that running game and stuff, and they kept it on

937
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:15,799
Speaker 3: the ground, they threw it when they had to and

938
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 3: all that. But that offense has expanded as Lamar has expanded.

939
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 3: Now you see it this year and it's it's fully

940
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,720
Speaker 3: formed now. Certainly, you know, Derrick Henry, being a generational talent,

941
00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:30,359
Speaker 3: has taken some of that off of Lamar's plate. But

942
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:33,239
Speaker 3: this is an offense that has gotten better and has

943
00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 3: stayed prolific because Lamar has gotten better and better and

944
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 3: better and all those fastest thing. You know, we were

945
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 3: all it was all fun and games because we were

946
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:42,360
Speaker 3: all like, yeah, he's a you got a wide receiver,

947
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:45,040
Speaker 3: you got a running back playing quarterback, and you know,

948
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:47,520
Speaker 3: Bill's fans love to make fun of Lamar, and it

949
00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 3: ain't the case anymore. He's a quarterback and he can

950
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 3: throw it. You're right, there are some areas of the

951
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:59,239
Speaker 3: field and he's you know, nobody's perfect, but Lamar is

952
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 3: way closer being perfect than he's ever been in every

953
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:06,720
Speaker 3: fast of the game. And the Ravens, to their credit,

954
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 3: have done everything they can to make sure he has

955
00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:12,879
Speaker 3: whatever he needs to be successful. They got him tight

956
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 3: ends because he loved the middle of the field. Get

957
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:17,399
Speaker 3: him some tight ends. They brought in early in his career.

958
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 3: They brought in running wide receivers who you know, I'm exaggerating,

959
00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,960
Speaker 3: but they will wear neck rolls because they were blocking

960
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 3: in the run game before they were catching passes. Right.

961
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,720
Speaker 3: They have a three hundred pounds full back on their roster.

962
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 3: They have changed coordinators to emphasize different parts of the

963
00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 3: offense because Lamar gradually became ready for that because he's

964
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:48,000
Speaker 3: worked hard. So Lamar has done his part to become

965
00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 3: a more complete quarterback and you're seeing the results of

966
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:54,400
Speaker 3: that now. And he is playing for an elite organization

967
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:58,880
Speaker 3: who have supported him in every way possible with weapons, personnel,

968
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:05,680
Speaker 3: coaching decisions, philosophy, decisions, tactics. They have done everything right

969
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:11,279
Speaker 3: in making sure Lamar stays successful. And that's why they

970
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:12,920
Speaker 3: win a lot of games. And that's why you know

971
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:16,319
Speaker 3: John Harbas won a Super Bowl. You know, they do

972
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:18,480
Speaker 3: it around the guys they have as well as anybody

973
00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:19,960
Speaker 3: in the league. And you're gonna get it. And the

974
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,200
Speaker 3: Bill Saw got a dose of that in Week four.

975
00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 3: Now having said that the Bills aren't coming in there unprepared,

976
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 3: and it's not like they don't have their own guy too.

977
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 3: So that's what fun. That's what the fun of this is,

978
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:36,239
Speaker 3: you know, watching these two guys go at it.

979
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 2: There is a Jets coaching update. They have completed their

980
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:44,600
Speaker 2: interview with Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph for their head

981
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,920
Speaker 2: coaching position. We told you that was happening today. Apparently

982
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 2: it's already wrapped up. So there you go. Latest update

983
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:53,160
Speaker 2: on the coaching cycle in the NFL as well. We

984
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 2: have to take a break here, but when we come back,

985
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,840
Speaker 2: got a chock full hour number two coming your way,

986
00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 2: as we will have Taylor Rap in studio with us

987
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 2: once practice is concluded. Here on One Bill's Live presented

988
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:05,719
Speaker 2: by Colida Health.

989
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:39,200
Speaker 17: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

990
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:47,799
Speaker 18: This this One Bills Live presented by Calida Health.

991
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:51,120
Speaker 2: All Right, our number two here, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker

992
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:54,040
Speaker 2: on a Wednesday practice, just wrapping up for the Bill,

993
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:57,360
Speaker 2: So Taylor Rap will be by in studio in just

994
00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,799
Speaker 2: a little bit. In the meantime, we'll continue to take

995
00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 2: your phone calls where we're asking you At eight h

996
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:07,160
Speaker 2: three ZHO five fifty. What matchup Sunday night intrigues you

997
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 2: the most? You know, I didn't give mine you I

998
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:12,440
Speaker 2: know what mine is, all right. It's Khalil Shakir against

999
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:17,160
Speaker 2: Marlon Humphrey. Because when the Bills last played the Ravens

1000
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 2: in Week four, Humphrey was playing outside corner. He has

1001
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 2: since moved into the slot almost full time, and he's

1002
00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:28,920
Speaker 2: a bigger, longer player, which can have its advantages but

1003
00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:32,880
Speaker 2: also have disadvantages against a player as shifty and elusive

1004
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:36,359
Speaker 2: as Khalil is. So I'm very curious to see that

1005
00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 2: matchup in this game, especially knowing Shakiir suffered an ankle

1006
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 2: injury in that game and was a little hobbled halfway through.

1007
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:48,520
Speaker 2: So that's the one that I'm gonna be keeping my

1008
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:50,360
Speaker 2: eye on. Do they put Humphrey on him in the

1009
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:54,040
Speaker 2: slot full time or do they pick somebody else because

1010
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 2: they deemed Shakir two shifty first.

1011
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 3: And I'll say this too, you don't know how it's

1012
00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:00,319
Speaker 3: gonna work out because the coverage has changed things. Say,

1013
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:02,279
Speaker 3: you don't know whether you know there's obviously gonna be

1014
00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:04,840
Speaker 3: some spots where they are one on one, but you

1015
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:06,719
Speaker 3: know they're gonna play some zone or they're gonna zone

1016
00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:08,759
Speaker 3: it off unless they want to pressure Josh like they

1017
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:10,600
Speaker 3: did in this last game when the if the Bills

1018
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:15,800
Speaker 3: are in obviously throwing down. But I'm with you, Shakir

1019
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 3: is one of the kind of constants in a room

1020
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 3: where we always talk about how everybody gets involved, everybody's

1021
00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:29,400
Speaker 3: part of Shakiir is always near the top of the

1022
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 3: target list. Uh and his ability to run after catch

1023
00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:35,080
Speaker 3: makes him one of the few guys on this roster

1024
00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:39,399
Speaker 3: that if he's not number one on your priority list

1025
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:42,880
Speaker 3: as a defense, he's two. Yeah, and he's not outside

1026
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 3: the top three.

1027
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:45,960
Speaker 2: I'm just curious. Do they go with Humphrey, who's known

1028
00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,960
Speaker 2: as a very physical, big long corner, or do they

1029
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:52,799
Speaker 2: go with someone shiftier like Wiggins. They're rookie, you know,

1030
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:56,120
Speaker 2: who's a lot slighter framed but has great lateral quickness.

1031
00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,960
Speaker 2: So that one has me intrigued for Sunday night. But

1032
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 2: let's go to the phones and see what do you think.

1033
00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:03,919
Speaker 2: We go to John in Buffalo next. What's up, John Good?

1034
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:04,879
Speaker 3: Or are you good?

1035
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,360
Speaker 19: So I just want to talk about the matchup against

1036
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,160
Speaker 19: the Ravens and the Bills, And I know I probably

1037
00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:14,120
Speaker 19: sound like a broken record at this point. But I

1038
00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 19: noticed that in week four, Matt Mulana was on Ir

1039
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:22,280
Speaker 19: Bernard had a peck injury, Karen Johnson a four arm injury,

1040
00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:25,720
Speaker 19: Taylor Rapp went out in quarter two with an injury,

1041
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:28,920
Speaker 19: and Johnson also wasn't playing one hundred percent because in

1042
00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:30,960
Speaker 19: week one when he broke his hand or fractured it.

1043
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 19: So that'll definitely be a big plus to have. But

1044
00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:40,080
Speaker 19: also I noticed that Bobby Babbitt has tended to do

1045
00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:45,040
Speaker 19: more different personnel like she's been doing more three linebackers

1046
00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 19: who'll come out of nickel, he'll come out of dime,

1047
00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 19: and the Ravens usually will put Derrick Henry in first,

1048
00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:55,279
Speaker 19: second down and then take him out for passing and

1049
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:58,640
Speaker 19: third and fourth, and that's when we'll probably have three

1050
00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:01,320
Speaker 19: linebackers in and then take them out and do nickel

1051
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,480
Speaker 19: or dime. But that's all I just wanted to say

1052
00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:03,880
Speaker 19: about that.

1053
00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:06,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we've covered a lot of that ground already,

1054
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 2: John So not terribly broken record ish, but a little bit.

1055
00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:09,719
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1056
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:11,759
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, you're you're seeing it the way a

1057
00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:13,440
Speaker 3: lot of us have seen it, started talking about it,

1058
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:16,520
Speaker 3: and you're right on par with us and hey man,

1059
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,279
Speaker 3: so glad to see you sliding in.

1060
00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:22,399
Speaker 2: Here is Bill Safety Tailor Rap joining us on set

1061
00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:25,080

1063
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:33,520
Speaker 2: All right, Taylor, Uh, let's let's begin here because you

1064
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:37,240
Speaker 2: know you uh, I want to talk about tackling technique

1065
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:39,960
Speaker 2: with Derrick Henry because time and time and time again

1066
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,399
Speaker 2: every week we see these guys on other teams.

1067
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:44,560
Speaker 3: Trying to go high on this guy.

1068
00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,440
Speaker 2: Now, you actually tried to take him out at the

1069
00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:50,400
Speaker 2: thigh board in week four and you kind of you

1070
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:52,080
Speaker 2: kind of got more of your head on his legs,

1071
00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:56,600
Speaker 2: shoulder and paid for it. What what is like it?

1072
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:58,399
Speaker 3: You want to get him around the wickets man?

1073
00:55:58,480 --> 00:55:58,640
Speaker 2: Right?

1074
00:55:58,719 --> 00:55:59,319
Speaker 3: Not up high?

1075
00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:01,719
Speaker 20: He's yeah, I mean I think the big thing is

1076
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:03,319
Speaker 20: you got to get him before he gets going, you know,

1077
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:05,680
Speaker 20: once he gets Roland, you know it's it's it's a tough,

1078
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:09,440
Speaker 20: tough down for anybody, but you know, obviously amazing player,

1079
00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 20: Hall of Fame player, Obviously a tough task for us.

1080
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:16,280
Speaker 3: And you guys are second time you've seen him obviously

1081
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:18,440
Speaker 3: this year. First one did not go well, looked like

1082
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:22,120
Speaker 3: as you climb back into it, the offense had a

1083
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:24,520
Speaker 3: misk turned it over and then if you were behind

1084
00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:26,520
Speaker 3: the eight balls, they took it down scored again. They

1085
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:29,680
Speaker 3: had really that running game of theirs with Derek and

1086
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:33,759
Speaker 3: Lamar and Lamar's ability to handle the ball, and you

1087
00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:36,560
Speaker 3: guys see it all the time. How speak to that

1088
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:39,839
Speaker 3: a little bit how difficult it is when you you know,

1089
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:41,560
Speaker 3: you have to have a plan for who's got the ball.

1090
00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:43,600
Speaker 3: Even if they don't have the ball, you got to

1091
00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:44,439
Speaker 3: cover both of them.

1092
00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:48,040
Speaker 20: Yeah, I mean, you know, obviously very unique offense that

1093
00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:52,040
Speaker 20: we're facing. You know, you've seen it over the years.

1094
00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:55,319
Speaker 20: You know obviously, uh you know Lamar obviously uh being

1095
00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:57,160
Speaker 20: able to keep it and you know, keep it on

1096
00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:58,719
Speaker 20: zone reads and stuff like that, a lot of the

1097
00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:01,800
Speaker 20: run games and stuff. And really every time you know,

1098
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:05,279
Speaker 20: quarterback keeps it, you're one one man down short on defense. So,

1099
00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:09,600
Speaker 20: you know, just just a tough task. Obviously you said it.

1100
00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:12,120
Speaker 20: You know, week four, you know, we we had the

1101
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:15,320
Speaker 20: result that we had and you know we're looking forward to, uh,

1102
00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:16,920
Speaker 20: you know, getting getting back at it.

1103
00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:20,439
Speaker 2: Do you feel like because you're back seven man, it's

1104
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 2: been through a myriad of injuries through the course of

1105
00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:25,360
Speaker 2: the season where it just felt like, hey, when are

1106
00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:27,480
Speaker 2: we gonna get the band back together here? It just

1107
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:29,600
Speaker 2: seeming like one guy goes down this, Oh we're getting

1108
00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:31,480
Speaker 2: him back this, you know, And it's just been a

1109
00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:34,840
Speaker 2: series of you know, mixing some pieces. And while that

1110
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 2: has value because if you have to turn to those guys,

1111
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 2: they've got experience on the field. By the same token,

1112
00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:43,040
Speaker 2: I gotta believe you guys feel really good about finally

1113
00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:46,840
Speaker 2: having everybody back on the field together here at the

1114
00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:48,320
Speaker 2: most important time of the season.

1115
00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:51,680
Speaker 20: Yeah, no doubt. I mean, you know, obviously we're not

1116
00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:54,520
Speaker 20: the same team that we were in Week four. You know,

1117
00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:57,480
Speaker 20: they're also not the same team as well. So you know,

1118
00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:59,520
Speaker 20: you said it right there. We we were down you know,

1119
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:02,160
Speaker 20: three of uh you know, our top defensive guys with

1120
00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:06,480
Speaker 20: with Tarn, Matt and uh TV. So you know, obviously

1121
00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:09,760
Speaker 20: different different team, different you know players up back out there,

1122
00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 20: and so you know, we're we're looking forward to the challenge.

1123
00:58:12,560 --> 00:58:15,080
Speaker 3: Uh for sure, what about this game, It's gonna be

1124
00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:20,440
Speaker 3: freezing cold, sub freezing when maybe it doesn't look like

1125
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:22,760
Speaker 3: it's gonna be snowing or rain, and but it's you know,

1126
00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:27,480
Speaker 3: that's different than it was Monday night, Week four, and

1127
00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:32,080
Speaker 3: I tackling in cold weathers, you know, it's just one yeah,

1128
00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:35,000
Speaker 3: I use that term. It's one degree of difficulty more.

1129
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:39,000
Speaker 20: Right, Yeah, no, no doubt. You know, obviously the weather

1130
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,640
Speaker 20: and the conditions, you know, has a factor on it.

1131
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,320
Speaker 20: And uh, you know, obviously it's gonna be a lot

1132
00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:47,240
Speaker 20: colder than Week four. But you know, we we've been

1133
00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:49,120
Speaker 20: dealing with that for for the last you know, a

1134
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:51,680
Speaker 20: couple of couple of months really, And you know, when

1135
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 20: they when they say, what's the saying when it when

1136
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 20: it's too hard for everyone else, it's just right for them,

1137
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 20: It's just right.

1138
00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:01,520
Speaker 3: That's I've always maintained because we used to you know,

1139
00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:03,000
Speaker 3: you have to go out and practice in it and

1140
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:05,840
Speaker 3: you just bundle up. But I think living in it,

1141
00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:08,040
Speaker 3: and I've made this point, I think living in the cold,

1142
00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:10,000
Speaker 3: like going to work in it, coming out of work

1143
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:12,800
Speaker 3: in it. During the day, you're in it a little bit,

1144
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:15,200
Speaker 3: you know, practicing and stuff. It really helps not have

1145
00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 3: it to be a shock when you show out on

1146
00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:19,440
Speaker 3: game day. It's like, okay, we live in it. It's okay,

1147
00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 3: it's not a shock. You're ready for it, you got

1148
00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:23,720
Speaker 3: a plan and it doesn't bother you as much.

1149
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:25,720
Speaker 20: Right, Yeah, no doubt you said it right there. You know,

1150
00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:29,560
Speaker 20: we live in it and in my mind when it

1151
00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:32,440
Speaker 20: really it really just comes down to mindset mentality, like

1152
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:34,160
Speaker 20: how bad do you want it? Like you know, we're

1153
00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:37,000
Speaker 20: divisional round playing against Baltimore. Like if you let the

1154
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,000
Speaker 20: weather get to you, then you obviously don't want to bet,

1155
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:43,440
Speaker 20: so like it's it's it's not even you know, really

1156
00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:45,560
Speaker 20: in our heads. It's just you know, another thing that

1157
00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 20: we have to obviously deal with and be ready for.

1158
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,040
Speaker 20: But you know, I think we're we're using it obviously

1159
00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 20: as an advantage for us.

1160
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:55,040
Speaker 2: So the other advantage you have is you're going to

1161
00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:56,680
Speaker 2: have the crowd helping you out. They got a couple

1162
00:59:56,760 --> 00:59:58,800
Speaker 2: of fall starts out of Denver last week for you.

1163
00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:02,120
Speaker 2: But but at the same time, it makes communication for

1164
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:05,680
Speaker 2: you guys a little more challenging also pre snap. So

1165
01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,840
Speaker 2: how have you guys felt you've been able to get

1166
01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:10,840
Speaker 2: around that this year? Do you feel pretty good about

1167
01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:13,040
Speaker 2: the non verbal stuff and the hand signals and whatever

1168
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:15,680
Speaker 2: you guys got to turn to knowing this crowd is

1169
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:17,600
Speaker 2: going to be out of their mind, no Sunday night.

1170
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:21,360
Speaker 20: Yeah, you know, it's always challenging on the defensive end,

1171
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:24,600
Speaker 20: obviously at home. You know, that's when our crowd is

1172
01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:27,400
Speaker 20: really into it, when when the posing offense is on

1173
01:00:27,520 --> 01:00:30,040
Speaker 20: the field. So, uh, you know, just being able to

1174
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:33,080
Speaker 20: hone in our operation. And it's really been the full season,

1175
01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:37,400
Speaker 20: you know, steady climb and you know, we feel where

1176
01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:39,520
Speaker 20: we're at we need to be at and uh, you

1177
01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:42,200
Speaker 20: know obviously keep continuing to uh you know, build that.

1178
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:45,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, so give us an idea what this you know,

1179
01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,960
Speaker 3: certainly what kind of different things. What was the coaching

1180
01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:51,080
Speaker 3: staff's message to you about this game? Certainly you want

1181
01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:53,080
Speaker 3: to come out and make a statement early about you know,

1182
01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:54,920
Speaker 3: this is going to be a different game, you know,

1183
01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:57,800
Speaker 3: to them, what are your what's your coaching staff's message.

1184
01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:01,440
Speaker 20: Yeah, you know, obviously we didn't have we didn't get

1185
01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 20: the result that that obviously we wanted to, not even

1186
01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:06,320
Speaker 20: close to in week four. So you know, just using

1187
01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:09,680
Speaker 20: as motivation and you know, just just starting fast as well.

1188
01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:12,000
Speaker 20: You know, we we obviously got off to a bad start,

1189
01:01:12,040 --> 01:01:14,479
Speaker 20: you know. You know, Derrick Henry ripped off a eighty

1190
01:01:14,560 --> 01:01:16,880
Speaker 20: yard you know, on the first play of the game.

1191
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:20,120
Speaker 20: So you know, obviously, when when you start like that,

1192
01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:22,959
Speaker 20: it's a it's an uphill battle and you're playing uh,

1193
01:01:23,040 --> 01:01:25,240
Speaker 20: you know, catch up all game and stuff. So you know,

1194
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:28,120
Speaker 20: just being able to start fast and you know, just

1195
01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:32,240
Speaker 20: playing complimentary football, you know, offense, defense, uh, special teams

1196
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:33,720
Speaker 20: everything all right.

1197
01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,320
Speaker 2: Time now for this week's tim Bits time Out, presented

1198
01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:38,760
Speaker 2: by of course Tim Horton's where we have the fans

1199
01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:42,840
Speaker 2: ask our player guest a question, and this one comes

1200
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:46,040
Speaker 2: from Jenna this week, who asks, how would you compare

1201
01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:49,640
Speaker 2: this Bills team to the Rams Super Bowl winning team

1202
01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:54,720
Speaker 2: you were on? And is it finally our year? Well

1203
01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:57,680
Speaker 2: that second part was low right right, right right, yeah,

1204
01:01:57,760 --> 01:01:59,280
Speaker 2: look at me, don't shut the messager there.

1205
01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:02,040
Speaker 20: I mean, you know, there's there's a lot of similarities

1206
01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:04,800
Speaker 20: between Rams super Bowl team and this team. You know,

1207
01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:08,440
Speaker 20: I think the culture and you know, an environment within

1208
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:11,640
Speaker 20: the whole building. The organization is you know up there,

1209
01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:13,640
Speaker 20: and you know Vaughan Vaughn can attest to it because

1210
01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,640
Speaker 20: he was there. But you know, a lot of similarities.

1211
01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:18,400
Speaker 20: Obviously a lot of a lot of good vibes, a

1212
01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:21,200
Speaker 20: lot of urgency throughout the building. Uh, and really the

1213
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:24,080
Speaker 20: whole organization and you know I I definitely have a

1214
01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:24,840
Speaker 20: good feeling too.

1215
01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:30,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah, David Edwards too, right, yeah, David

1216
01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 2: Aaron Cromer, the offensive line coach. So yeah, maybe we

1217
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:35,400
Speaker 2: can get a little of that magic Pixie does from

1218
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:39,520
Speaker 2: the Rams, sprinkle it all over the locker room. Well, listen,

1219
01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:43,560
Speaker 2: appreciate the time as always, Taylor, stay healthy and good

1220
01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 2: luck kicking some butt on Sunday.

1221
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:46,400
Speaker 20: I appreciate you guys, thanks for having me.

1222
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:49,040
Speaker 2: All Right, that's Taylor Rapp joining us here. We will

1223
01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:52,680
Speaker 2: pivot now to the post practice podium where Josh Allen

1224
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:54,400
Speaker 2: is addressing the media.

1225
01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:56,880
Speaker 11: I feel like we've grown quite a bit since that game.

1226
01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:01,840
Speaker 11: I actually learned a lot from from those moments going

1227
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:05,480
Speaker 11: back and watching it. Obviously, wasn't our wasn't our best effort.

1228
01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:08,000
Speaker 11: You know, felt like we didn't play our best football.

1229
01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:11,280
Speaker 11: But again it's they They got a really good team

1230
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:13,640
Speaker 11: too that they're they're playing this week for a reason.

1231
01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:17,120
Speaker 11: Their defense the last really eight eight to ten weeks

1232
01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:22,320
Speaker 11: has been superb. On their offenses fantastic as well. They

1233
01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:23,840
Speaker 11: got a lot of a lot of studs over there,

1234
01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:27,480
Speaker 11: led by Lamar obviously, and it's a it's a tough

1235
01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:30,120
Speaker 11: team to play regardless, Josh.

1236
01:03:29,960 --> 01:03:32,800
Speaker 7: Whether it's right or on, the focus is going to

1237
01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:36,320
Speaker 7: be you against Lamar and that's just unavoidable work we live.

1238
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:40,080
Speaker 7: How do you handle all that, that crazy hype that

1239
01:03:40,200 --> 01:03:41,720
Speaker 7: because it is a team game, but it's gonna be

1240
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:42,520
Speaker 7: you against him.

1241
01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:45,320
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, I think in the history of football,

1242
01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:48,120
Speaker 11: I've never really played against another quarterback. I've played against

1243
01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:51,480
Speaker 11: their defense. And just taking it one day at a time,

1244
01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:53,720
Speaker 11: trying to have a good week of practice and then

1245
01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:56,760
Speaker 11: controlling what I can control. And uh, it's attitude and effort,

1246
01:03:56,760 --> 01:03:59,240
Speaker 11: and it's how we come out here and and uh,

1247
01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:00,600
Speaker 11: you know, just try to put best foot forward and

1248
01:04:00,600 --> 01:04:01,840
Speaker 11: try to execute on Sunday.

1249
01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:04,480
Speaker 7: Relish the chance then to go ahead to head with

1250
01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:06,680
Speaker 7: a great quarterback like that.

1251
01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:09,720
Speaker 11: You know, absolutely, I think that's what That's why you

1252
01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:11,640
Speaker 11: play this game is could be in moments like these,

1253
01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:14,760
Speaker 11: and uh, you know, our our our team, you know,

1254
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:18,520
Speaker 11: we're we're extremely happy and blessed to be playing and

1255
01:04:18,640 --> 01:04:22,120
Speaker 11: continue playing this this game. Again, We're just trying to

1256
01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:24,480
Speaker 11: find a way to go one to know, Josh, I just.

1257
01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:28,080
Speaker 5: Asked Matt Ryan about that playing against the other quarterback

1258
01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:30,680
Speaker 5: and Drew Brees was his example, and he said that

1259
01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:33,200
Speaker 5: he used to say the same thing, and it's not

1260
01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:35,040
Speaker 5: they go against the defense, but he also is in

1261
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:37,400
Speaker 5: the back of his mind he knew that he's got

1262
01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:37,760
Speaker 5: to keep.

1263
01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:39,240
Speaker 3: Up with the other guy because the other guy's gonna

1264
01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:39,720
Speaker 3: keep going.

1265
01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:41,160
Speaker 1: Is that something that you'd think about.

1266
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:44,919
Speaker 11: I mean absolutely, we want to you know, our job

1267
01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:46,960
Speaker 11: on offensive score the football, and we want to score

1268
01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:50,480
Speaker 11: every time we touch the ball here and again. Is

1269
01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:54,480
Speaker 11: that is that viable? Not usually, but that's that's our

1270
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:56,360
Speaker 11: goal every time we step on the field is to

1271
01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:57,920
Speaker 11: score more points than the other guys.

1272
01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:02,240
Speaker 3: Josh, Derek Head so difficult, attack important.

1273
01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:06,600
Speaker 11: Yeah, well, I've been around him. He is he's a great,

1274
01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:10,560
Speaker 11: great human being. I love being around him. He's a positive,

1275
01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:14,480
Speaker 11: bright human being. He's he's he's awesome. But when you

1276
01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:18,120
Speaker 11: look at him, he's absolutely massive. He's a physical specimen.

1277
01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:22,080
Speaker 11: He's as fast as anybody on the field. And again,

1278
01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:24,160
Speaker 11: once he gets going downhill, he's just he's tough to

1279
01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:26,800
Speaker 11: bring down just because of his sheer size and speed.

1280
01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:29,360
Speaker 8: Josh, you mentioned how the Raven stevens us looked a

1281
01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:31,240
Speaker 8: little different. It would have been better the last eight

1282
01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:33,520
Speaker 8: weeks or so. How do you balance looking at what

1283
01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:35,439
Speaker 8: they did against you all week four with what they've

1284
01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:36,320
Speaker 8: done more recently.

1285
01:05:37,360 --> 01:05:39,400
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean I think they they had a game

1286
01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:42,640
Speaker 11: plan against us that was pretty good. So making sure

1287
01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:46,280
Speaker 11: that we're covering those bases and figuring out, you know,

1288
01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:48,240
Speaker 11: what what to adjust and how to fix some of

1289
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:51,040
Speaker 11: those things. You know, at the same time, what what

1290
01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:54,360
Speaker 11: have they had success on the last few weeks and

1291
01:05:55,240 --> 01:05:58,040
Speaker 11: you know, not sure what they're gonna do. Uh well,

1292
01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:01,360
Speaker 11: I guess we'll find out Sunday. But we'll prepare for

1293
01:06:01,360 --> 01:06:03,360
Speaker 11: for anything and everything that we can and just just

1294
01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:05,560
Speaker 11: try to go out there and excute what side of that.

1295
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 8: You know, you guys have a Mari now Keyans had

1296
01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:09,520
Speaker 8: so much more time in the system and it's a

1297
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,000
Speaker 8: very different offense for you guys. How much does that

1298
01:06:12,040 --> 01:06:13,680
Speaker 8: give you kind of comfort us to go into this

1299
01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:16,400
Speaker 8: meeting of we're a different team as well.

1300
01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:20,280
Speaker 11: I mean, there's there's some comfort there, but at the

1301
01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:23,640
Speaker 11: end of the day, it's whoever executes better on Sunday.

1302
01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:26,120
Speaker 1: A lot of lessons learned of that game.

1303
01:06:26,160 --> 01:06:28,640
Speaker 2: Sean's said these the exact same words, does a couple

1304
01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:30,840
Speaker 2: hours ago, how much better prepared.

1305
01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:32,880
Speaker 18: Do you think you guys will be for the Sunday

1306
01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:34,760
Speaker 18: because just by virtue of the fact that you have

1307
01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:35,720
Speaker 18: had that game.

1308
01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:39,160
Speaker 11: You know, I think throughout the year, having having the

1309
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:41,440
Speaker 11: losses that we've had and even some of the wins,

1310
01:06:41,480 --> 01:06:43,200
Speaker 11: you know, we've we've learned a lot throughout the year,

1311
01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:46,120
Speaker 11: and again just trusting the guys that we have in

1312
01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:50,000
Speaker 11: this building, in this locker room, and all we're all

1313
01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:51,480
Speaker 11: we're trying to do is play for each other, put

1314
01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:55,000
Speaker 11: our best foot forward and score one more point than them.

1315
01:06:55,120 --> 01:06:56,200
Speaker 11: So it's all we're trying to do.

1316
01:06:56,360 --> 01:06:59,920
Speaker 5: How much is Kyle Hamilton's rule change within the race?

1317
01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:01,440
Speaker 3: The s defense for the first.

1318
01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:04,680
Speaker 11: Time a little bit different, you know, not not so

1319
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:07,880
Speaker 11: much in the slot. He's playing kind of a post

1320
01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:13,880
Speaker 11: high slash, you know, box safety. So he's he's a

1321
01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:15,760
Speaker 11: heck of a player though, I mean he's he's flying

1322
01:07:15,800 --> 01:07:18,640
Speaker 11: around all over the field. He's a ball magnet. They

1323
01:07:18,680 --> 01:07:20,760
Speaker 11: got some absolute studs on that defensive side of the

1324
01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:24,000
Speaker 11: ball too, so uh, you know, got to be aware

1325
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:26,560
Speaker 11: of where he's at along with a few other guys.

1326
01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:30,680
Speaker 11: But slightly different role than than what we saw earlier

1327
01:07:30,720 --> 01:07:31,120
Speaker 11: in the year.

1328
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:35,240
Speaker 7: Where are you and the teams about the obstacle that

1329
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:36,840
Speaker 7: this round has been for your guys.

1330
01:07:36,880 --> 01:07:37,880
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, it's it's.

1331
01:07:37,760 --> 01:07:40,600
Speaker 1: Out there, it's it's history. But how aware are you

1332
01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:40,920
Speaker 1: of it?

1333
01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:41,240
Speaker 12: Are you?

1334
01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:44,479
Speaker 1: And how do you kind of put it behind you?

1335
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:47,560
Speaker 7: Aware of the history of that this round has been

1336
01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:50,080
Speaker 7: the obstacle for your guys. You haven't gotten over the

1337
01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:52,760
Speaker 7: hump in this divisional round. How do you how do

1338
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:56,640
Speaker 7: you handle that and and move forward knowing that there's

1339
01:07:56,640 --> 01:07:58,600
Speaker 7: some pressure on you guys maybe to get past this

1340
01:07:58,720 --> 01:07:59,240
Speaker 7: round this year.

1341
01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:02,160
Speaker 11: We played in the AFC Championship Game a few years ago.

1342
01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:03,920
Speaker 1: For the last is the fourth year in a row.

1343
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:06,680
Speaker 7: Oh gotcha, Divisional and you've been out the last three.

1344
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 7: So there's a little bit of history there.

1345
01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:12,640
Speaker 11: Goes down to whoever executes better on Sunday. That's again,

1346
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:14,200
Speaker 11: we're just trying to have a good week of practice,

1347
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:17,200
Speaker 11: playing a good, good team here, we're at home. We'll

1348
01:08:17,200 --> 01:08:20,559
Speaker 11: have to use the the fan advantage to our our

1349
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:24,040
Speaker 11: the fans to our advantage, and again we're just find

1350
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:25,160
Speaker 11: a way to score one more point.

1351
01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:27,800
Speaker 8: Gosh, man, I talked to you since the all pro

1352
01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:30,519
Speaker 8: votes were announced forre you surprise five Anthos either for

1353
01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:32,040
Speaker 8: yourself or for other categories.

1354
01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:37,439
Speaker 11: No, I'd love for more Bills to be honored, but

1355
01:08:37,640 --> 01:08:41,160
Speaker 11: that's we We know that's nothing new here. And you know,

1356
01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:42,320
Speaker 11: we got a lot of guys that are in this

1357
01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:44,800
Speaker 11: locker room that are deserving of it. I know that

1358
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 11: they know that, but it's not gonna affect us. We're

1359
01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:50,519
Speaker 11: We're just trying to have a good week of practice.

1360
01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:53,479
Speaker 16: Especially No, you're big on visualization and things like that.

1361
01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:56,519
Speaker 8: Going the hype around this game, knowing the cat this year,

1362
01:08:57,160 --> 01:08:58,840
Speaker 8: what do you kind of expect in front of Bill's

1363
01:08:58,880 --> 01:08:59,679
Speaker 8: Mafia on Sunday?

1364
01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:03,920
Speaker 11: Well, hopefully hopefully very loud when they're on on offense

1365
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:07,840
Speaker 11: and second and third down and making it hard for them.

1366
01:09:08,160 --> 01:09:10,960
Speaker 11: But just the energy, the juice, the vibes, you know,

1367
01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:14,120
Speaker 11: you know, our our goal is to get to the

1368
01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:16,519
Speaker 11: fourth quarter and have mister Bright's Iide be playing and

1369
01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:18,559
Speaker 11: I know the fans love that, but that that gives

1370
01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:22,160
Speaker 11: us such a little shot of energy that that you

1371
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:23,880
Speaker 11: know we're gonna need going into this game.

1372
01:09:24,439 --> 01:09:26,559
Speaker 3: Signal to them on when to play it.

1373
01:09:27,080 --> 01:09:29,200
Speaker 11: No, I honestly don't know when they play it. I

1374
01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:31,120
Speaker 11: know it's usually in the fourth quarter though, so uh,

1375
01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:35,400
Speaker 11: it gets the people going, Oh yeah, absolutely.

1376
01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:38,240
Speaker 8: Ray Johnson, where have you seen him grow the most

1377
01:09:38,240 --> 01:09:40,519
Speaker 8: this year? You know, just stuff up with the big plays.

1378
01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:41,360
Speaker 13: What does that cop prop?

1379
01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:45,560
Speaker 11: I mean it comes from him, uh, accepting accepting the

1380
01:09:45,640 --> 01:09:48,639
Speaker 11: role in this offense. You know a lot of guys

1381
01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:51,160
Speaker 11: in this in this offense had to accept a little

1382
01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:53,160
Speaker 11: bit something maybe than they thought they were going to be.

1383
01:09:53,160 --> 01:09:55,920
Speaker 11: And you know, it's not the most glorious thing to

1384
01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:59,759
Speaker 11: be a third down back. And but he's taken advantage

1385
01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:02,600
Speaker 11: of every opportunity that he's had. I've said for a

1386
01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:04,200
Speaker 11: long time that he's the best there down back in

1387
01:10:04,240 --> 01:10:06,040
Speaker 11: the game. And he just continues to make play after

1388
01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:08,040
Speaker 11: play for us. The things that he does in the

1389
01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:10,760
Speaker 11: in the passing game, the blocking game, the run game.

1390
01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:13,439
Speaker 11: He's such a selfless player. He's such a great locker

1391
01:10:13,520 --> 01:10:16,400
Speaker 11: room guy. And I can't say enough nice things about him.

1392
01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:19,120
Speaker 1: She said, you've grown quite a bent since week before.

1393
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:21,639
Speaker 1: Where do you think the teams has grown the most

1394
01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:22,200
Speaker 1: of them?

1395
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:26,000
Speaker 11: I think we're just a pretty pretty together unit right now,

1396
01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:29,519
Speaker 11: really just going out there and playing for each other.

1397
01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:31,599
Speaker 11: We don't want to let each other down. I think

1398
01:10:31,680 --> 01:10:35,200
Speaker 11: we've we've all worked extremely hard this year and our

1399
01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:36,639
Speaker 11: biggest fears letting each other down.

1400
01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:42,000
Speaker 2: All right, that's Josh Allen addressing the media after practice today.

1401
01:10:42,080 --> 01:10:44,120
Speaker 2: We are going to step aside and take a break,

1402
01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:46,439
Speaker 2: because when we come back, we're gonna have the guy

1403

1419
01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:42,000

1420

1423
01:11:54,240 --> 01:11:56,320
Speaker 18: My mind is still in the stadium right now. It's

1424
01:11:56,360 --> 01:11:59,640
Speaker 18: already there. It never left on this past Sunday, and

1425
01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:00,919
Speaker 18: it's there ready.

1426
01:12:00,720 --> 01:12:02,400
Speaker 3: For the game. Well, I got to ask you before

1427
01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:05,479
Speaker 3: going further about the Bills Ravens five hundred and one

1428
01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:09,280
Speaker 3: NFL games man, congratulations, it is awesome to think about.

1429
01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:13,240
Speaker 3: Do you remember your first game?

1430
01:12:13,840 --> 01:12:13,920
Speaker 2: Oh?

1431
01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:17,840
Speaker 18: Yeah, I do. It was in October of nineteen eighty eight.

1432
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:21,240
Speaker 18: It was Tampa Bay at Indianapolis. I think it went

1433
01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:24,880
Speaker 18: to just those two markets. It was the seventh or

1434
01:12:24,880 --> 01:12:28,640
Speaker 18: eighth game on the NFL schedule, whatever the last number was.

1435
01:12:28,680 --> 01:12:31,720
Speaker 18: It was seven games, it was the seventh. It was

1436
01:12:31,760 --> 01:12:35,160
Speaker 18: the seventh one in terms of audience reach. I was

1437
01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:38,320
Speaker 18: just filling in because they were in a pinch. I

1438
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:41,200
Speaker 18: was the host of the College Football the Prudential College

1439
01:12:41,200 --> 01:12:44,559
Speaker 18: Football Scoreboard show back in those days, starting in nineteen

1440
01:12:44,600 --> 01:12:47,400
Speaker 18: eighty five, and suddenly there was an opening to do

1441
01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:51,719
Speaker 18: a game on that Sunday. So I parachuted in after

1442
01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:56,400
Speaker 18: finishing up my Saturday studio duties at the Broadcast Center

1443
01:12:56,439 --> 01:12:59,120
Speaker 18: in New York and headed to Indianapolis. Had done my

1444
01:12:59,240 --> 01:13:03,120
Speaker 18: prep via the phone, no in person production meetings, and

1445
01:13:03,720 --> 01:13:06,479
Speaker 18: I've worked with Pat Hayden. The game was a nail bider.

1446
01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:09,479
Speaker 18: It was like thirty five thirty one. Tampa Bay won

1447
01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:11,160
Speaker 18: the game, and.

1448
01:13:12,640 --> 01:13:14,280
Speaker 1: Yeah it was. It was the.

1449
01:13:14,320 --> 01:13:17,280
Speaker 18: Tony Dungee Bowl before we even knew it, before Tony

1450
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:19,320
Speaker 18: was even thought of as the coach of each of

1451
01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:24,679
Speaker 18: those franchises. But yeah, I've had Listen, I've had great

1452
01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:27,639
Speaker 18: fortune on my side. I've been given a great gift

1453
01:13:27,640 --> 01:13:30,520
Speaker 18: to be a part of CBS now from forty years overall,

1454
01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:32,360
Speaker 18: and to be able to do the things that I

1455
01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:34,200
Speaker 18: can only dream of and want to do. When I

1456
01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:36,240
Speaker 18: was a little boy, this was the childhood dream, was

1457
01:13:36,240 --> 01:13:39,840
Speaker 18: to work specifically for this network, to work for CBS.

1458
01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:42,760
Speaker 18: I love the way CBS presented the NFL when I

1459
01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:47,960
Speaker 18: was growing up, with voices like Ray Scott and Jack

1460
01:13:48,040 --> 01:13:51,800
Speaker 18: Buck and of course Pat Summerl and Tom Brookshire. And

1461
01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:55,599
Speaker 18: I loved even more how CBS presented the Masters Tournament,

1462
01:13:55,600 --> 01:13:57,040
Speaker 18: and I wanted to be one of those voices.

1463
01:13:57,080 --> 01:13:57,719
Speaker 3: That was it.

1464
01:13:57,720 --> 01:13:59,800
Speaker 18: It had nothing to do with wanting to be on television.

1465
01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:02,000
Speaker 18: I wanted to be one of those voices of my youth.

1466
01:14:02,479 --> 01:14:04,679
Speaker 18: And I've been given that gift from the man.

1467
01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:08,040
Speaker 1: Upstairs, and I'm grateful. I say my thanks every single day.

1468
01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:10,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and let me personally tay congratulations as well, Jim,

1469
01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:12,519
Speaker 2: because I missed you last week because you were doing

1470
01:14:12,600 --> 01:14:14,840
Speaker 2: your thing. I was doing my thing. So it's just

1471
01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:17,240
Speaker 2: a tremendous accomplishment. And I'm glad Josh was able to

1472
01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:20,080
Speaker 2: give you a ball from the team as well. Josh

1473
01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:23,280
Speaker 2: is always thinking about this stuff, isn't he. I know

1474
01:14:23,320 --> 01:14:26,000
Speaker 2: he had a personal meeting with you out at the

1475
01:14:26,120 --> 01:14:29,120
Speaker 2: golf tournament a couple of years back as well.

1476
01:14:30,720 --> 01:14:33,200
Speaker 18: Well, sorry I missed you last week, Chris. I'm stoked

1477
01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:34,880
Speaker 18: for you and the great things that are happened for you.

1478
01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:38,920
Speaker 18: I did get to see mister Tasker, which is always

1479
01:14:38,920 --> 01:14:41,680
Speaker 18: a great joy and hope in fact that we can

1480
01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:45,920
Speaker 18: double down on that this week. That ball presentation from

1481
01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:52,040
Speaker 18: the organization, it was very meaningful to me. And these

1482
01:14:52,040 --> 01:14:55,320
Speaker 18: are unsung heroes in an organization that people don't really know.

1483
01:14:55,439 --> 01:15:00,439
Speaker 18: But guys like Derek and Kevin, they are just incredible people,

1484
01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:04,280
Speaker 18: the best at what they do, and they arranged for that.

1485
01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:09,680
Speaker 18: That was in our Friday meeting at the facility. I've

1486
01:15:09,680 --> 01:15:13,040
Speaker 18: gotten the no Josh really well. I feel like I've

1487
01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:16,000
Speaker 18: been there to document a lot of his greatest moments

1488
01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:20,400
Speaker 18: in his career, including his first win, which was September

1489
01:15:20,479 --> 01:15:26,639
Speaker 18: the twenty third, twenty seventeen at Minnesota. Tony and I

1490
01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:30,240
Speaker 18: were assigned that game Week three. The Bills were sixteen

1491
01:15:30,320 --> 01:15:35,280
Speaker 18: or seventeen point underdogs at Minnesota, and Josh put on

1492
01:15:35,320 --> 01:15:38,200
Speaker 18: a show. He put on an absolute show. You guys

1493
01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:39,040
Speaker 18: got footage?

1494
01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:39,600
Speaker 1: How good are you?

1495
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:39,880
Speaker 3: Got?

1496
01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:42,599
Speaker 1: That leap right there by the way A crack staff

1497
01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:45,840
Speaker 1: in the control? My mind absolutely blows my mind.

1498
01:15:45,880 --> 01:15:47,280
Speaker 3: I can't be value.

1499
01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:51,400
Speaker 1: How about my man Jay Harris, stuff like Ryeah.

1500
01:15:51,439 --> 01:15:54,679
Speaker 3: We got Tom Holly yeah Tom oh yeah yeah yeah,

1501
01:15:54,720 --> 01:15:56,639
Speaker 3: we got Georgia. We got a whole crew here.

1502
01:15:57,680 --> 01:16:00,439
Speaker 18: I just passed out when I saw this. I couldn't

1503
01:16:00,439 --> 01:16:04,120
Speaker 18: believe it. Anyway, they wanted a rump, The Bills want

1504
01:16:04,160 --> 01:16:06,439
Speaker 18: in a rump. And I played a lot of golf

1505
01:16:06,479 --> 01:16:08,559
Speaker 18: with Josh He's been at my home in Pebble Beach

1506
01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:11,719
Speaker 18: multiple times. He's been at my home here in Nashville,

1507
01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:15,160
Speaker 18: including this last summer. You know, I've gotten to know

1508
01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:21,280
Speaker 18: Joel and Levn and his brother as well, Jason. They're

1509
01:16:21,439 --> 01:16:26,840
Speaker 18: just great people. So you can't help but get to

1510
01:16:26,880 --> 01:16:29,800
Speaker 18: know the subjects that you're covering. It's interesting, you know.

1511
01:16:30,280 --> 01:16:33,559
Speaker 18: Peyton and Tom I don't need to say last names.

1512
01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:37,160
Speaker 18: They were big AFC guys, and we know what that

1513
01:16:37,360 --> 01:16:39,400
Speaker 18: was like back in the day. I think we had

1514
01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:45,519
Speaker 18: eleven of their seventeen matchups in their careers, including four

1515
01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:49,200
Speaker 18: AFC Championship games. And now, of course they've moved on

1516
01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:51,720
Speaker 18: to other things. They're retired, and they're truly two of

1517
01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:55,439
Speaker 18: my closest friends. I've heard from both of them today.

1518
01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:59,000
Speaker 18: I'm not name dropping, but these are This is friendship,

1519
01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:04,040
Speaker 18: and they gave me a lot of great moments of

1520
01:17:04,120 --> 01:17:06,920
Speaker 18: document just as Josh is doing right now, just as

1521
01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:10,880
Speaker 18: Lamar is doing, just as Patrick is doing. You know,

1522
01:17:10,960 --> 01:17:13,640
Speaker 18: these guys are still really early and young in their careers,

1523
01:17:14,240 --> 01:17:16,800
Speaker 18: but my goodness, how fortunate I've been to see so

1524
01:17:16,920 --> 01:17:20,320
Speaker 18: many of these moments from these legendary quarterbacks.

1525
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:23,200
Speaker 2: And coach McDermott may have said it best right after

1526
01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:26,559
Speaker 2: the win over Denver in his postgame press conference. Naturally,

1527
01:17:26,680 --> 01:17:29,640
Speaker 2: the lines of questioning drifted from what happened in that

1528
01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:33,600
Speaker 2: game to what lie ahead, and that's obviously Baltimore. And

1529
01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:36,479
Speaker 2: the first thing out of Coach's mouth was, well, this

1530
01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:39,320
Speaker 2: is the matchup everybody wanted, right And it's like he

1531
01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:42,040
Speaker 2: even you know, he could sense it just from the media,

1532
01:17:42,120 --> 01:17:44,559
Speaker 2: let alone the fans. But here we are, and you

1533
01:17:44,600 --> 01:17:48,320
Speaker 2: get to call Josh versus Lamar even though they won't

1534
01:17:48,360 --> 01:17:50,479
Speaker 2: be on the field together at the same time naturally,

1535
01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:52,960
Speaker 2: but and they too have a friendship. That's that's a

1536
01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:55,559
Speaker 2: pretty strong bond too, having been from the same draft.

1537
01:17:55,360 --> 01:18:00,960
Speaker 18: Class exactly, and they'll forever be linked together and there's

1538
01:18:01,040 --> 01:18:07,719
Speaker 18: tremendous respect. I've been thinking about this game, truly since

1539
01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:13,160
Speaker 18: the day. It was December the eighth, when the Bills

1540
01:18:13,360 --> 01:18:17,280
Speaker 18: lost that game out in Los Angeles, and all I thought,

1541
01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:19,639
Speaker 18: all hope for the number one seed had pretty much

1542
01:18:19,680 --> 01:18:24,360
Speaker 18: diminished with that loss, that wild, crazy game where Josh

1543
01:18:24,439 --> 01:18:27,240
Speaker 18: threw for three and ran for three and they got outscored.

1544
01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:29,360
Speaker 18: The game was in the forties, as you know, but

1545
01:18:29,479 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 18: I thought, Wow, it's December eighth. They're going to be

1546
01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:35,519
Speaker 18: the two. The Ravens. I had seen them in person

1547
01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:39,240
Speaker 18: already three times by that point. They at times looked

1548
01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:41,040
Speaker 18: like the best team in football. I'm going to tell

1549
01:18:41,040 --> 01:18:44,080
Speaker 18: you that right now. They look unbeatable at times, and

1550
01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:46,080
Speaker 18: I thought, for sure they'll figure out a way to

1551
01:18:46,120 --> 01:18:48,400
Speaker 18: win that division. There'll be the two in the three.

1552
01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:52,360
Speaker 18: And I've been obsessing, if that's the right word about

1553
01:18:52,960 --> 01:18:55,799
Speaker 18: calling this game since December the eighth, after the Rams

1554
01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:56,599
Speaker 18: beat the Bills.

1555
01:18:56,840 --> 01:19:01,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's we're with you, Jim. It has been coming down.

1556
01:19:01,800 --> 01:19:05,000
Speaker 3: This matchup has been coming down the tracks for two

1557
01:19:05,040 --> 01:19:09,879
Speaker 3: months and and it and it was. It's been added

1558
01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:12,439
Speaker 3: to by the first matchup that was so lopsided in

1559
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:15,880
Speaker 3: favor of the Ravens. They looked absolutely and the Bills

1560
01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:18,960
Speaker 3: looked like they had no answers at all in that game.

1561
01:19:19,560 --> 01:19:22,360
Speaker 3: And yet here they are, one game away from the

1562
01:19:22,360 --> 01:19:26,040
Speaker 3: AFC Championship, and you know they're gonna meet again in

1563
01:19:26,040 --> 01:19:28,880
Speaker 3: in Buffalo this time. What I know, I know you

1564
01:19:28,920 --> 01:19:32,840
Speaker 3: got you. You talked to Rickoff, your producer, and Tony

1565
01:19:32,880 --> 01:19:35,040
Speaker 3: probably during the week, and what are your your thoughts

1566
01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:37,200
Speaker 3: about and when you're leaving the stadium last week, you

1567
01:19:37,240 --> 01:19:40,480
Speaker 3: were probably having okay, here we go kind of conversations.

1568
01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:42,519
Speaker 3: How are those going? Well?

1569
01:19:42,560 --> 01:19:45,080
Speaker 18: We when we left the stadium last week, Stevie, I,

1570
01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:47,640
Speaker 18: we really truly did not know we were going to

1571
01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:50,120
Speaker 18: get the game. You never know. It's all the NFL

1572
01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:50,599
Speaker 18: sends out.

1573
01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:51,400
Speaker 1: They assigned it. Now.

1574
01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:53,760
Speaker 18: Tony was joking on the air about how much he's

1575
01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:54,640
Speaker 18: looking forward.

1576
01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:55,000
Speaker 1: To calling it.

1577
01:19:55,120 --> 01:19:57,640
Speaker 18: Yeah, it was just it was just that rascal that

1578
01:19:57,720 --> 01:20:01,559
Speaker 18: lives inside of Tony sometimes right know where he he uh,

1579
01:20:01,920 --> 01:20:04,680
Speaker 18: he takes on I'm gonna date myself here, But like

1580
01:20:04,880 --> 01:20:07,120
Speaker 18: Don Meredith used to be that kind of character on

1581
01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:10,240
Speaker 18: right in football, and it's just it's a lot of

1582
01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:13,880
Speaker 18: fun to keep showing your toes. Obviously, he was not

1583
01:20:14,040 --> 01:20:17,120
Speaker 18: influencing history. The league was not going to assign us

1584
01:20:17,200 --> 01:20:19,160
Speaker 18: that game based on what Tony said, but he truly

1585
01:20:19,160 --> 01:20:20,519
Speaker 18: we had no idea if we're going to get the

1586
01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:20,920
Speaker 18: game or not.

1587
01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:23,000
Speaker 1: We hope for it, and I honestly I felt like

1588
01:20:23,040 --> 01:20:23,720
Speaker 1: we deserved it.

1589
01:20:23,760 --> 01:20:26,360
Speaker 18: We are the we are the AFC network, and that

1590
01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:29,479
Speaker 18: is the best game of the bunch and clearly the

1591
01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:33,360
Speaker 18: more fascinating matchup between the two AFC divisional games, at

1592
01:20:33,400 --> 01:20:37,719
Speaker 18: least on paper. So we left not knowing for certain

1593
01:20:38,040 --> 01:20:41,880
Speaker 18: we would have that game. Now, it's there's a lot

1594
01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:44,280
Speaker 18: that can be read into what happened Week two because

1595
01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:49,040
Speaker 18: I've seen Baltimore look like that at other times, not

1596
01:20:49,200 --> 01:20:52,479
Speaker 18: just against the Bills. I've been an eyewitness to win.

1597
01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:58,000
Speaker 18: Lamar and Derek are truly unstoppable, and they were. As

1598
01:20:58,040 --> 01:21:00,479
Speaker 18: you know, Derek ran for one hundred and ninety nine

1599
01:21:00,560 --> 01:21:03,599
Speaker 18: yards in that game. Set the pacer earlier with that

1600
01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:08,240
Speaker 18: eighty seven yard burst. The speed he still has at

1601
01:21:08,840 --> 01:21:12,519
Speaker 18: thirty two years old, it's insane. I mean how fast

1602
01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:15,240
Speaker 18: he is. He looks leaner and faster than he did

1603
01:21:15,640 --> 01:21:19,600
Speaker 18: the last couple of years. But you know, it's not

1604
01:21:19,640 --> 01:21:21,479
Speaker 18: going to be lost on people too though. There's a

1605
01:21:21,479 --> 01:21:26,160
Speaker 18: lot of things to look at with with the Buffalo

1606
01:21:26,240 --> 01:21:29,040
Speaker 18: defense that weren't there that day, Like take a Taron Johnson,

1607
01:21:29,120 --> 01:21:31,400
Speaker 18: take a Matt Mulano. I mean, there are others that there.

1608
01:21:31,920 --> 01:21:34,559
Speaker 18: There's reinforcement here that wasn't on the field. They got

1609
01:21:34,600 --> 01:21:38,240
Speaker 18: three defenders who were starters who did not play in

1610
01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:40,320
Speaker 18: that game. And again the game was in Baltimore. This

1611
01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:43,200
Speaker 18: game is going to be in a place that's difficult

1612
01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:51,320
Speaker 18: for anyone to win. But I warn you, I I

1613
01:21:51,320 --> 01:21:53,160
Speaker 18: don't care who Baltimore would be going against.

1614
01:21:53,200 --> 01:21:55,120
Speaker 1: I would be very afraid to play them.

1615
01:21:55,479 --> 01:21:58,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's and it seems like the way to at

1616
01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:01,439
Speaker 2: least hang with them and give yourself a chance to

1617
01:22:01,479 --> 01:22:04,320
Speaker 2: win is to not let them get off to that

1618
01:22:04,439 --> 01:22:07,160
Speaker 2: fast start, because once they start rolling, it's like a

1619
01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:10,840
Speaker 2: boulder going downhill. It's very difficult to stop, and they

1620
01:22:10,920 --> 01:22:13,000
Speaker 2: just seem to roll from there. I mean, you think

1621
01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:16,080
Speaker 2: about like the Houston game thirty one to two comes

1622
01:22:16,120 --> 01:22:18,960
Speaker 2: to mind, like they just started rolling and Houston's like,

1623
01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:21,840
Speaker 2: oh my god, this is an avalanche. If you can

1624
01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:25,519
Speaker 2: get off to a faster start than them and maybe somehow,

1625
01:22:25,600 --> 01:22:28,400
Speaker 2: some way get them to play from behind, I think

1626
01:22:28,439 --> 01:22:31,160
Speaker 2: you make the task infinitely more difficult for them because

1627
01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:32,840
Speaker 2: they're used to being out in front.

1628
01:22:34,200 --> 01:22:36,280
Speaker 18: I think that's a great point, Chris, I really do.

1629
01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:41,479
Speaker 18: And your description of like a boulder, a runaway boulder,

1630
01:22:41,840 --> 01:22:44,720
Speaker 18: that's what it looks like when Derek gets past the

1631
01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:47,639
Speaker 18: line of scrimmage and he starts stiff arming people, and

1632
01:22:47,720 --> 01:22:48,599
Speaker 18: how do you bring him down?

1633
01:22:48,600 --> 01:22:51,680
Speaker 1: It's a little bit like the question how do you

1634
01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:54,320
Speaker 1: tackle Josh Allen in space.

1635
01:22:54,400 --> 01:22:58,400
Speaker 18: You know, these are guys that these DB's, they're physically overmatched.

1636
01:22:58,439 --> 01:23:00,759
Speaker 18: They do not want It's all a lot of punishment

1637
01:23:00,800 --> 01:23:04,960
Speaker 18: you take trying to bring these guys down. But is

1638
01:23:05,000 --> 01:23:06,920
Speaker 18: it just me or am I reading too much in

1639
01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:08,240
Speaker 18: what I've seen here of late?

1640
01:23:08,280 --> 01:23:09,280
Speaker 1: I'm going to toss out.

1641
01:23:09,160 --> 01:23:12,400
Speaker 18: The New England game Week eighteen, That doesn't really matter.

1642
01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:14,160
Speaker 18: Who was on the field at that time, is not

1643
01:23:14,280 --> 01:23:17,559
Speaker 18: what it's going to look like on Sunday? Am I

1644
01:23:17,600 --> 01:23:20,360
Speaker 18: reading too much? In that game Week seventeen? We were

1645
01:23:20,360 --> 01:23:22,720
Speaker 18: there for that one in Buffalo against the Jets. Now,

1646
01:23:22,760 --> 01:23:25,639
Speaker 18: this was a Jets team that, granted had a terrible year,

1647
01:23:26,439 --> 01:23:29,559
Speaker 18: but they did have you know, Aaron Rodgers was playing

1648
01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:32,640
Speaker 18: trying to get his five hundred touchdown pass, which he

1649
01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:36,400
Speaker 18: was denied. You know, they had Bresaw, they had their

1650
01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:40,479
Speaker 18: full arsenal, and the Jets were completely shut down. Not

1651
01:23:40,560 --> 01:23:44,080
Speaker 18: that they were an offensive weapon all year long. And

1652
01:23:44,120 --> 01:23:50,840
Speaker 18: then reading into Sunday a little bit, a Denver team

1653
01:23:50,880 --> 01:23:54,759
Speaker 18: that was very in our production meeting, extremely confident about

1654
01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:57,839
Speaker 18: being able to move the football against the Bills defense,

1655
01:23:58,880 --> 01:24:02,960
Speaker 18: and other than that opening touchdown drive, you know they

1656
01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:05,880
Speaker 18: never scored again. They couldn't run the football. So am

1657
01:24:05,920 --> 01:24:08,519
Speaker 18: I reading for the third time? Am I reading too

1658
01:24:08,640 --> 01:24:14,400
Speaker 18: much into what I've seen here since the Detroit game,

1659
01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:21,439
Speaker 18: since the La Detroit back to back surrendering forty? Is

1660
01:24:21,479 --> 01:24:24,800
Speaker 18: there something that's tangibly different? I think there is. I

1661
01:24:24,840 --> 01:24:26,919
Speaker 18: think there's something better about this defense.

1662
01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:29,000
Speaker 3: Now, I would agree with you, and I think one

1663
01:24:29,040 --> 01:24:31,600
Speaker 3: of the things is a little bit, particularly upfront on

1664
01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:35,519
Speaker 3: both sides of the ball. The big guys seem to

1665
01:24:35,560 --> 01:24:38,839
Speaker 3: have been waiting for meaningful games. They clinched their division

1666
01:24:38,920 --> 01:24:43,040
Speaker 3: week eleven or week twelve, something like that. They've been right,

1667
01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:45,840
Speaker 3: so they've been waiting a long time. Plus they're a

1668
01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:48,599
Speaker 3: little bit there's full expectation. I think, even if it

1669
01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:52,000
Speaker 3: wasn't outside the building halfway through this season, there was

1670
01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:55,200
Speaker 3: full expectation that this team was headed the playoffs, and

1671
01:24:55,240 --> 01:24:57,320
Speaker 3: they got a little bit of this Kansas City Chiefs

1672
01:24:57,360 --> 01:25:01,759
Speaker 3: thing going where they're waiting for games that mean something.

1673
01:25:01,960 --> 01:25:04,320
Speaker 3: They've seen what a grind the regular season is. It's

1674
01:25:04,360 --> 01:25:06,320
Speaker 3: a fifth division title in a row. They've got a

1675
01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:10,439
Speaker 3: lot of guys on this team that are waiting to

1676
01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:13,360
Speaker 3: do it for real, and they don't think it's for

1677
01:25:13,439 --> 01:25:15,479
Speaker 3: real until they hit the playoffs. And I think these

1678
01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:17,400
Speaker 3: last couple of games when they had a shot maybe

1679
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:20,439
Speaker 3: at the one to get a week off where they

1680
01:25:20,479 --> 01:25:22,559
Speaker 3: had a shot now to you know, get to the

1681
01:25:22,560 --> 01:25:25,719
Speaker 3: division round, get another home game. I think the big

1682
01:25:25,760 --> 01:25:29,679
Speaker 3: guys up front have taken it up a notch.

1683
01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:31,920
Speaker 1: I think it shows.

1684
01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:33,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's what shows if there was.

1685
01:25:33,640 --> 01:25:38,719
Speaker 18: Anything technically you saw Steve Obviously Mulano's getting more reps

1686
01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:42,559
Speaker 18: and more time after being absent with the injury for

1687
01:25:42,640 --> 01:25:45,400
Speaker 18: the first two months, so he's getting more involved. I

1688
01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:49,840
Speaker 18: thought he had a great game on Sunday. Yeah, and

1689
01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:52,639
Speaker 18: I think again, I think Taran missing that first game

1690
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:56,559
Speaker 18: cannot be minimized. There's a big hole when he's not

1691
01:25:56,680 --> 01:25:57,160
Speaker 18: out there.

1692
01:26:00,439 --> 01:26:00,679
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1693
01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:05,599
Speaker 18: The Terrell was there either, Yeah, yeah he Bernardin missed

1694
01:26:05,640 --> 01:26:08,080
Speaker 18: that game too, And I mean he's he makes plays.

1695
01:26:08,120 --> 01:26:10,920
Speaker 18: We know that he is. He is a great strong

1696
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:13,799
Speaker 18: safety slash linebacker who makes a lot of plays.

1697
01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:15,120
Speaker 1: So we'll see.

1698
01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:16,240
Speaker 3: I just know this.

1699
01:26:17,200 --> 01:26:20,320
Speaker 18: You can say the same thing about Buffalo and Sean McDermott,

1700
01:26:20,320 --> 01:26:24,760
Speaker 18: but the Ravens are extremely well coached. They've made some

1701
01:26:24,800 --> 01:26:27,320
Speaker 18: adjustments that make me think that they're even better than

1702
01:26:27,320 --> 01:26:29,560
Speaker 18: they were earlier in the year. Now, Zay Flowers, we

1703
01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:33,560
Speaker 18: got to see about that. But their defense was porous

1704
01:26:33,720 --> 01:26:37,759
Speaker 18: early in the year. Somehow they they held the Bills

1705
01:26:37,800 --> 01:26:41,960
Speaker 18: to like a season low in terms of total offense yardage,

1706
01:26:42,760 --> 01:26:45,760
Speaker 18: but they were giving up a lot. And then all

1707
01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:47,760
Speaker 18: of a sudden, here the last seven eight weeks, they've

1708
01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:49,840
Speaker 18: been first in the league in a lot of categories.

1709
01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:55,600
Speaker 18: So John figured it out. Zach Orr, first year decordinator.

1710
01:26:55,640 --> 01:26:59,439
Speaker 18: They brought Dan P's back as the former defensive coordinator,

1711
01:26:59,439 --> 01:27:02,320
Speaker 18: brought him back as a consultant. And that's the thing

1712
01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:06,240
Speaker 18: that makes them even scarier is that side was costing

1713
01:27:06,280 --> 01:27:08,519
Speaker 18: them some games early in the year. That's why they

1714
01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:11,720
Speaker 18: never really were in contention for the one seed. There

1715
01:27:11,760 --> 01:27:13,519
Speaker 18: are only two teams all year long they had a

1716
01:27:13,600 --> 01:27:15,679
Speaker 18: chance at it, and that was Kansas City and Buffalo.

1717
01:27:16,960 --> 01:27:21,320
Speaker 18: But that defense of Baltimore, they got coached up. They've

1718
01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:25,639
Speaker 18: got better, and there's not a lot there to shoot

1719
01:27:25,640 --> 01:27:28,000
Speaker 18: holes in as far as what Baltimore comes in and

1720
01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:29,040
Speaker 18: trying to find a weakness.

1721
01:27:29,880 --> 01:27:32,080
Speaker 2: Well, Jim, we appreciate the time, So thanks for giving

1722
01:27:32,160 --> 01:27:34,080
Speaker 2: us some of yours, and we'll catch you up here

1723
01:27:34,120 --> 01:27:35,320
Speaker 2: this weekend. We save travels.

1724
01:27:36,360 --> 01:27:38,080
Speaker 1: You know, I think again, I justn't want to thank

1725
01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:40,440
Speaker 1: the Mafia. Guys are remarkable.

1726
01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:43,040

1728
01:27:49,439 --> 01:27:50,280
Speaker 18: one team guy.

1729
01:27:50,360 --> 01:27:50,559
Speaker 3: You know.

1730
01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:52,720
Speaker 18: Growing up as a sports fan, I didn't like when

1731
01:27:52,760 --> 01:27:56,680
Speaker 18: players jumped around. They I love guys that were, like

1732
01:27:56,720 --> 01:27:59,519
Speaker 18: I say, Roger Staubach, that was a cowboy for life,

1733
01:28:00,080 --> 01:28:04,679
Speaker 18: Steve Tasker. They've done a great job of building a team.

1734
01:28:04,720 --> 01:28:05,759
Speaker 18: You can be proud of. Brandon.

1735
01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:07,320
Speaker 1: Bean's amazing. He was part of that.

1736
01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:10,479
Speaker 18: As you saw that ball presentation, I was about to

1737
01:28:10,680 --> 01:28:12,439
Speaker 18: find it back here. I've got it somewhere here in

1738
01:28:12,479 --> 01:28:17,160
Speaker 18: my office in Nashville, but a lot of good memories there.

1739
01:28:17,200 --> 01:28:19,679
Speaker 18: I'm coming back, and who knows, maybe back to back weeks.

1740
01:28:20,040 --> 01:28:22,800
Speaker 18: You can't give up on anybody this time of year.

1741
01:28:23,280 --> 01:28:27,720
Speaker 18: Imagine if Houston beats Kansas City on Saturday and we

1742
01:28:27,800 --> 01:28:31,320
Speaker 18: go into this game Sunday night knowing the winner hosts.

1744
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:35,720

01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:39,000
