Speaker 1: It was great.

11
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 3: I we're talking about this earlier. I absolutely unplugged. I

12
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 3: didn't watch the Brady thing.

13
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 1: I didn't.

14
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't like talk about football with anybody. I

15
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 3: like Farmers marketed it.

16
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,639
Speaker 2: And golf that started this weekend?

17
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,400
Speaker 1: Race it did started this weekend?

18
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 3: Did the Farmer's market, did golf, did some did a

19
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 3: ton of yard work, totally unplugged from everything.

20
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: It was so nice. And then, you know, I avoided

21
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 1: the Brady. The Brady what is a roast?

22
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 3: I saw some highlights and stuff, pretty funny stuff, and

23
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 3: that's fine, that's good for him. Yeah, but I was great.

24
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 3: I feel I feel a little bit refreshed.

25
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 2: Nice, But you got any go to items at the

26
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 2: farmer's market? Is there anything?

27
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 4: Yes?

28
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 2: Every week?

29
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 3: Okay, So actually, now that you mention it, you go

30
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 3: they they're building something in the farmer's market area that

31
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 3: I'm usually at, So now they've shifted it around. So

32
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 3: it's a little different setup than it's been for like

33
00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 3: twenty years.

34
00:01:58,960 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 5: Right.

35
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 3: I go in and there's this little stand at the

36
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 3: end of it tent and it's they make fresh, teeny

37
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 3: tiny donuts like they're hot, yum, and then they shake

38
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 3: them in powdered sugar. Is there powdered little powdered donuts

39
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 3: and they're hot. Let me tell you something to those

40
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 3: If there was a way that those little powdered donuts

41
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,079
Speaker 3: could be, like some way, shape or form made into

42
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 3: health food, the entire planet would eat nothing else, all

43
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 3: of us would you could, the beef cattle industry, the

44
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 3: grain growing in farmers across the nation, nobody would do

45
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 3: anything except and make powdered donut because that's the only

46
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 3: thing anybody would ever eat if it was healthy.

47
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 2: That sounds good, it is.

48
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, So I get I just I didn't

49
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 3: get I got to like six when they're little, right,

50
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 3: so it's like six bites and the guy. The guy's like, Bill, Hey,

00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 4: Oh.

57
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it is so good. It's good to be me.

58
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: So yeah, that was that was the biggest perk I got.

59
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 3: Out of being me This weekend was like two extra

60
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 3: little powdered donuts on top of the six I had, Nope,

61
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 3: and my wife said no, I'm not going to do it,

62
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 3: so they were all mine more for me.

63
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,119
Speaker 2: How long did it take to eat?

64
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: Like fifteen seconds.

65
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 3: I was like, she's like, my wife's like brushing the

66
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 3: powdered don't sugar off of me. I got it every

67
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 3: Oh that was the best. That's my go to thing

68
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 3: at the farmer's market. Nice that. I think we all

69
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 3: feel it now. It's here we are, I mean we're

70
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 3: into the good the better weather. Yeah, it's a little wet,

71
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 3: but it's it's warm. It's getting warmer, cool nights, warm days, beauty.

72
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 3: I'm such a good weekend for me. Yeah, what about

73
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 3: you guys.

74
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 2: A pickleball for the first time on Friday. I haven't

75
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 2: played before. You know, everybody talks about it. Everybody is

76
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 2: doing it now, so why not my hand at some pickleball.

77
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 2: I I don't know if I'm the best at racket

78
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 2: sports because I grew up playing softball. I grew up

79
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 2: crushing a ball as hard as possible. So anytime I

80
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 2: have anything that resembles a bat in my hand, I

81
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 2: want to snack it as hard as I can. And

82
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 2: I don't have the finesse to just, you know, PLoP

83
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 2: it over the net, don't hit it hard. I just

84
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 2: want to crush it. But it was fun. It was

85
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 2: fun by like the fourth game, I was able to

86
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: get it where it needed to go and understood the

87
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 2: rules and all was good.

88
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: But so it's a fast learning sport.

89
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 2: I would say. So it's very similar to tennis.

90
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 1: Rule Maddie home run, Glad always hit.

91
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 2: Which is funny because I'm teeny tiny. But put a

92
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 2: bat in my I've heard anything like that.

93
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 3: I've seen a game. I've seen some people bat it around.

94
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 3: I have never played it myself. I told you last

95
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 3: I heard about pickleball is Bernard lang Er.

96
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 2: People are hurting themselves.

97
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, he snapped his achilles playing it four months ago.

98
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 3: Now he's back on the golf court. He's a of course,

99
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 3: a Master's golf champion, a major winner in the PGA

100
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 3: and all that. Bernard Langer the famously snapped his achilles

101
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 3: four months ago playing pickleball, and now he's back on

102
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 3: the course competing. So that you know, I guess golf

103
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 3: is a little different.

104
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: But there's sudden it's one of those yeah, is it.

105
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 2: Side decide, you're jumping in front, You're you're trying to

106
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 2: go back. It's you're not moving far, but you're jabbing

107
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 2: jab steps, moving, moving quickly.

108
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 3: Thinking that there was probably a time in my life

109
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 3: when I would have killed pickleball. But I'm also thinking

110
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 3: that time has passed. It already sounds too like intense

111
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 3: for me at this point in my life.

112
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 2: It's isn't as intense as you want to make it.

113
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,719
Speaker 2: If you're playing against me, we're hitting home runs out

114
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 2: of the park. We're not even playing the game.

115
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know, it doesn't it is. It's taken

116
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 3: over everywhere. Every tennis court you see now has a

117
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 3: pickleball court. Striped over it too as well. You could

118
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 3: do both.

119
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: That's yeah, okay, I think about it.

120
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 2: Did you catch the Kentucky Derby or the NASCAR races?

121
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 2: We had two photo finishes.

122
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: Missed all of it.

123
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 3: I saw the finish of the Derby of Courial media,

124
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 3: so the Kentucky Derby was all time. Oh my gosh,

125
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 3: look at that.

126
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 2: Wow. Watching on MSG. We had two photo finishes. So

127
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,359
Speaker 2: you have the Kentucky Derby first, which the finish was

128
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: by a nose, basically by the placement of the horse's

129
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 2: head is how they found out the winner. It was

130
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 2: Mystic Dan who won the Kentucky Derby. And then later on, yeah,

131
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 2: in the afternoon.

132
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 3: I did not know about the NASCAR thing, and we

133
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 3: got the photo finish of at that thing.

134
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 2: The advent Health four hundred at Kansas Speedway and Kyle

135
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 2: Larson won his margin of victory steve point one seconds,

136
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 2: which was the closest finish in NASCAR Cup Series history.

137
00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 2: That's a little look at it.

138
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,679
Speaker 3: It's like two inches going at one hundred and ninety

139
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 3: mile an hour. That's amazing. Good stuff.

140
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 2: So weekend full of sports sports.

141
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 3: I didn't see any of the I didn't see the

142
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 3: derby because I was playing golf. And then I didn't

143
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 3: see the NASCAR thing either because I wasn't in front

144
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 3: of the TV.

145
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 2: I keating on playoff hockey, playoff basketball.

146
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: You did catch some hockey.

147
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 3: Caught the game seven last night Dallas and Vegas, and

148
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 3: was appropriate and was cheering for the appropriate team, which

149
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 3: is kind of hard to do with when you're talking

150
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,239
Speaker 3: about Dallas and Vegas. I think at this point in history,

151
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 3: I'm more of a Dallas Lesser hater than I am

152
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 3: a Vegas hater. So I'm neither neither franchise obviously for

153
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 3: obvious reasons. First Dallas is the no goal team, and

154
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 3: then Vegas is is just that team that you know,

155
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 3: defending Cup champions, and all of it goes all the

156
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 3: baggage that goes with the Vegas with the Vegas Golden Knights.

157
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: So I wasn't, but I was.

158
00:07:58,600 --> 00:07:59,320

166
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 3: hadn't watched it at all last year or whatever. Anthony

167
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 3: Edwards is the dude.

168
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 1: Have you seen him? He's unbelievable. Yep, he's unbelievable.

169
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 3: And all the guy like Kevin Durants out, Lebron's out,

Speaker 3: Embid is out. All these they're like sitting there done.

172
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 3: You gotta pick new guy, you gotta pick new horses.

173
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 3: It's like having like a next man up. Yeah, it's like,

174
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 3: who's the next guy? I gotta I gotta know? And

175
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 3: it looks like it says Anthony Davis, dude two minutes,

176
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 3: not Anthony Davis, Anthony Edwards, Anthony Edwards, Anthony Edwards is

177
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:02,439
Speaker 3: He's fun. Man, Wow, I can believe it. Were these well,

178
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 3: they just keep turning them out. But yeah, the NBA Playoffs.

179
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 3: I am very interested in this year for some reason.

180
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 3: I don't know why it is.

181
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:14,359
Speaker 2: I haven't watched much yet, watched much yet, but I'll probably.

182
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 3: I am catching I am kind of turning into an

183
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 3: NHL fan again. I'm I'm I'm watching these playoffs with

184
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 3: some real interest totally. And it's not just it's not

185
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 3: just because I watched the Sabers in the regular season

186
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 3: and other teams. Every team in the playoffs is different

187
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 3: than any team we saw in the regular season. I mean,

188
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 3: it's just a different game almost. And I'm sure it

189
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 3: has something to do obviously with the intensity and the

190
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 3: meaning of all these games and being the playoffs and

191
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 3: this is why they play and they're going for the

192
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,559
Speaker 3: cup and all that. But also I think it has

193
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 3: something to do with the way it's officiated and the

194
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,079
Speaker 3: way the league feels about it's playoff hockey. I think

195
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 3: they treat it differently on the ice, not just the players,

196
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 3: but the officials, the coaches, the commentators. Everything's just ratcheted up.

197
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 3: And it's really interesting to me. Not that I have

198
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 3: any skin in the game or I'm switching allegiance from

199
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 3: the Sabers, but I just think it's really interesting to

200
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 3: watch this whole league. They say playoff hockey.

201
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a reason why people say playoff hockey is different.

202
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 3: Everybody turn even the announcers, they turn it up a notch.

203
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 3: It's it's fun, it's amazing. Yeah, So I've been really

204
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 3: intrigued by that, plus a couple of game sevens in

205
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 3: this in this thing, and it's been fun to see.

206
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 2: Gotta love when something goes to game seven. Yeah, yeah,

207
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 2: regardless of the sport. All right, today, we've got NFL

Speaker 2: twelve thirty.

223
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:14,839
Speaker 1: Did you see what they're doing?

224
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 3: You know, they're doing team building and here I'm really

225
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 3: playing any football at all. Really, they're just kind of

226
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 3: walking around. You see what they were doing out there

227
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 3: in the field just a minute ago. Everybody was learning

228
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:23,959
Speaker 3: to CPR.

229
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 2: That's cool.

230
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, the whole team, they were all out there, you know,

231
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 3: doing the chest things, you know, on the on the dummies.

232
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 2: You got everybody in the building. Yeah, they might as

233
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 2: well teach them something like that. If they haven't learned.

234
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: That, that's amazing, you know.

235
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 3: And it's all there's no doubt all of it is

236
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 3: because of Damar and what has gone and what he

237
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 3: has gone, what he went through two years, two seasons ago,

238
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 3: and it's nice to see that they're not just like, Okay,

239
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,479
Speaker 3: we're over that, let's go through it. They're they're teaching everybody.

240
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 3: It's still kind of coste. Yeah, really cool to see.

241
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 2: Great place here at one Bills Drive. So the bill's

242
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 2: added on Friday afternoon. I know you guys talked about

243
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 2: it on Friday or the show, but let's rehash it

244
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 2: for those who didn't see. Wide receiver Chase Claypool, defensive

245
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 2: end Dwayne Smoot, and linebacker Dion Jones. So those are

246
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 2: all one year deals. Claypool was most recently with the

247
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 2: Dolphins and the Bears. Smoot played for the Jaguars for

248
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 2: seven seasons, and then Jones comes to us from the Panthers.

249
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,199
Speaker 2: So a few new players in here ahead of OTAs,

250
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 2: ahead of Rookie Mini Camp. Guys are back in the

251
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 2: building today. Veterans are they'll leave later in the week

252
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 2: so the rookies can come in for rookie Mini camp

253
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 2: and then they will begin adding the rookies into what's

254
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 2: been going on here. So OTAs begins later in May.

255
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 2: I was talking with one of our veterans a couple

256
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 2: days ago and they were just saying how excited they

257
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 2: are for the rookies to join them. They were remembering

258
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 2: their time as a rookie. It was aj Apanessa that

259
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,680
Speaker 2: I was talking to, and he was saying, I'm excited

260
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,440
Speaker 2: to get these young guys in here. It feels like

261
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 2: forever ago that I was a rookie and now I'm

262
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 2: a veteran. I'm like, Aj, you're still young.

263
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: Think about it.

264
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,439
Speaker 3: Think yeah, think about it because I went through it,

265
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 3: you know, decades ago, but it's never changed.

266
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 1: So you're this kid. You grow up and you got

267
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: your friends.

268
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,439
Speaker 3: You and your friends grew up fans, you know of

269
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 3: the game, and you watch it together on TV, watch

270
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 3: it with your parents, your mom, and you have everybody

271
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 3: takes the NFL in the way they do.

272
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 1: And then all of a.

273
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 3: Sudden, no matter what team you're on, there's gonna be

274
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 3: somebody on that team you've you've heard about and you've

275
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 3: seen play on TV. And then all of a sudden

276
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 3: you're sitting right next to him in the locker room

277
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 3: and they're like, appeer, Yeah.

278
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 2: Your first couple of weeks as an NFL player is

279
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 2: looking around with your eyes wide open, like, is that

280
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 2: Von Miller? Is that Josh Allen?

281
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: Exactly right?

282
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 3: As a rookie, I walked in and sat down, and

283
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 3: right behind me, I turned around to look, Warren Moon

284
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 3: is sitting there.

285
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: Ye, Warren Moon.

286
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 3: Next, you know, down the road is there's Mike Rozier,

287
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 3: High Trophy winner. You know you got you like, Bruce Matthews,

288
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 3: Mike Munchak, all those jokers are standing just like right

289
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 3: around me, Dean Stein. They had like the Oilers back

290
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 3: in the day, in five consecutive years or four of

291
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 3: your consecutive years, picked in the first round and offensive lineman.

292
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 3: It was Bruce Matthews, Mike Munchak, Dean stein Cooler and

293
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 3: Harvey Salem. All these dudes were and up and you know,

294
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 3: I'm there. I am looking like a sixth grader looking

295
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 3: at just like staring like staring at him like they

296
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 3: were zoo animals, and I was. It's such an adjustment

297
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 3: to like take a deep breath and say, okay, you

298
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 3: know I'm supposed to be here.

299
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: It's a big step.

300
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 2: For these guys, say by training camp they feel adjusted

301
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 2: or not as wide eyed and.

302
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 1: Well, at least they're not self conscious anymore. You know

303
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: what I mean. You feel like I don't want to

304
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: do anything stupid, don't want.

305
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 2: Two weeks under your belt. Then you got you break

00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 2: for six weeks, you come back for training camp.

307
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 3: If you've got half a brain, they have to pry

308
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 3: words out of you.

309
00:14:58,080 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: Just be quiet. Just be quiet.

310
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 3: It lay load, just at least for a couple of

311
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 3: weeks until you know, until you start feeling start having

312
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 3: private conversation with guys. You just got to take a minute.

313
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 3: But you know, then then you start to get more

314
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 3: and more comfortable. And then when you start playing preseason games,

315
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 3: getting training camp, then it's like then you can start

316
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 3: playing and being yourself.

317
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 1: Again, but you got to just shut up.

318
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 2: I would expect we'll also be announcing at some point

319
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 2: soon in the near future all teams are adding udfas

320
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 2: to the roster. That'll probably come out as we approach

321
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 2: rookie Mini Camp. And then you look at the roster

322
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 2: and it's it's close to set, close to set for

323
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 2: OTAs and training camp as well. You can obviously hold

324
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 2: a lot more people for training camp before any of

325
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 2: those cuts need to be made. And then next on

326
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 2: the docket is schedule release, which we have no idea

327
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 2: when it's gonna be. I wish I could tell you

328
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 2: I know the days, but I don't.

329
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be Thursday. That's what everybody's saying

330
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 3: that in fact, their starting.

331
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 2: That's what the internet is saying.

332
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 3: Yes, it's also they're almost scheduling uh programming on television

333
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 3: programming around I know the.

334
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 2: NFL Network network has started to release commercials. So I'm like,

335
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 2: if you guys are putting commercials out there, are you

336
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 2: saying this is going to happen on Thursday? We will

337
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 2: do a schedule. We have to show.

338
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 1: We have to ask Cynthia.

339
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe she knows. Maybe she's got that.

340
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: She's banging around the holes NFL network.

341
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 2: But Brownie and I will do a schedule release show

342
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 2: the day that it comes out, so you guys can

343
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 2: expect that. And you don't even know about something, I

344
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 2: have no idea. I prepped everything last week, wondering is

345
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 2: this week or next week. We know our team, so

346
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 2: you can do a lot of that prep ahead of time.

347
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 2: We just don't know when we're going to be playing

348
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 2: these I read.

349
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 3: This on somebody put this out and on social and

350
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 3: I don't know where where I saw her which account

351
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 3: even put it out, but they said this may be

352
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 3: the most difficult schedule of the Josh Allen era. And

353
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 3: I I gotta say, I don't see it that way.

354
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: You don't, I don't. I don't see it. We're looking

355
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: at the schedule.

356
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 3: Now it's the Patriots, Jets, Dolphins, Okay, but then you

357
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 3: got Jackson It's the AFC South Jacksonville, Tennessee. You know,

358
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 3: Houston and Indianapolis. Now young quarterbacks and up and comers,

359
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 3: no question about it. But believe me, those four teams

360
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 3: are looking at the schedule going, oh man, we got Buffalo.

361
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 3: I mean, that's how I see it, and then it's

362
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 3: and then aside from that, I see it. It's San Francisco,

363
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 3: it's Kansas City. It's the Rams and the Ravens and

364
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 3: the Lions, all those you know, playoff teams and AFC

365
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 3: stacked at the top.

366
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: But I don't know. Last year when the Bills were.

367
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 3: Like six and six, and it's like, man, we had

368
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,879
Speaker 3: a stretch of four or five games and they the

369
00:17:55,520 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 3: only game they lost was overtime in Philly when the

370
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 3: kid hits an absolutely heroic kick was a fifty nine

371
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 3: yard in a rainstorm, I don't know.

372
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 2: What, and it was something like that.

373
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm like, that was a tough schedule. That

374
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 3: was a bear last year coming down the stretch, and

375
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 3: the Bills went six and one down the stretch and

376
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 3: got into the playoffs and won the division. This schedule

377
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 3: to me, and I know, it's not you know, and

378
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,719
Speaker 3: the Bills were doing it nine times last year. They

379
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 3: were in a Primo TV spot, if not primetime, there

380
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 3: is a four to thirty slot on the weekend. I mean,

381
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 3: we never played at one o'clock last year.

382
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,719
Speaker 2: Well, looking at the schedule or not looking at the

383
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,919
Speaker 2: teams we play, I should say I highlighted on my

384
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 2: show prep what games I thought could be primetime games,

385
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 2: and I came up with like eight, which is what

386
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 2: we highlighted on MSG's.

387
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:51,920
Speaker 1: There's a lot of good matchups.

388
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 2: And it'll be interesting to see where they slot these

389
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 2: primetime games. And if the Bills are going to be

390
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 2: playing on holidays again this year, if they're going to

391
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 2: be a for thirty team again this season, how it's

392
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 2: gonna shake out? Because you you better believe that we'll

393
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 2: play the Dolphins at least once on primetime.

394
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 3: I would get right, The Dolphins will get on prime time.

395
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 3: The Chiefs is much must watch TV. The forty nine

396
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 3: ers carries a lot of weight for for like a

397
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 3: crossover again.

398
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:24,120
Speaker 2: Xans, you got you got the storylines there with Stefansson.

399
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 3: We've got Lamar and Josh going against each other, Pitt

400
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 3: Troit and the Lions Houston, as you said, and of

401
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 3: course you've always got the the the division.

402
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 2: Games with the Jets.

403
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 3: The Jets always put get a get a primetime game

404
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 3: then and then you know, depending on how it goes.

405
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 3: I see, here's the thing, depending on how they're playing.

406
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 3: You know, with Anthony Richardson in Indianapolis and Trevor Lawrence

407
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 3: and Jacksonville and C. J. Stroud in Houston, all of

408
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 3: those teams, if they're playing well, that could be a

409
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,639
Speaker 3: later season flex game. You know. I mean, like, all right,

410
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 3: all you know, Anthony Dave, Anthony Richardson's back in it.

411
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 3: M hm, there playing good, he's staying healthy, he's doing

412
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 3: all this stuff. Let's get him and Josh on the

413
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,919
Speaker 3: field together and let's watch him. I could see that

414
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 3: happening late in the season. But man, you talk about

415
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 3: San Francisco forty nine ers against.

416
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 2: The Bills appointment viewing.

417
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and the Chiefs, I mean the Chiefs and the Bills.

418
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 2: That's like no brainer.

419
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's like the that's like the finale. It's like

420
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 3: the finale a sign failed. Everybody's gonna watch it. You

421
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 3: can't not watch it.

422
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 2: Once in once in the regular season and once in

423
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 2: the tryoffs.

424
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 1: It's point to write it down. So those are absolutes

425
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 1: to me.

426
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 3: And you know, I don't know how much we even

427
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 3: got we got flexed into primetime even you know nine

428
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 3: times last.

429
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 2: Week, got Christmas Day games this year on a Wednesday,

430
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:43,679
Speaker 2: I believe is that.

431
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: You know this day, you know we're gonna get a

432
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:46,919
Speaker 1: Christmas Day games.

433
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 2: We were what last year? We were the day before

434
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 2: Christmas Eve, which I thought was perfect because then you

435
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 2: could go home if you wanted to, you could uh

436
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 2: take a day off. I really enjoyed that. I'm totally

437
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 2: fine with playing on Thanksgiving. I'd rather play on Thanksgiving

438
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 2: than Christmas. I like playing on Thanksgiving because, yeah, then

439
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 2: you get the weekend afterward, which is nice.

440
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: Because yeah, think about it.

441
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 3: I mean, and I know Bills fans probably have you know,

442
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 3: they have every opinion on the spectrum. Some of them

443
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 3: hate Thanksgiving now, you know. Some of them like all that.

444
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 1: I get it.

445
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,919
Speaker 3: And by that time they start kind of playing on

446
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 3: Saturday games too. Sometime late in November, maybe early December.

447
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 2: There's a Black Friday game. I wonder, Oh my god,

448
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 2: that's again this season?

449
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:33,479
Speaker 1: It this I forgot man schedule release is huge. I

450
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: forgot about that.

451
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 2: When's the bye week? What's the end of the season

452
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 2: looks like, yep, we'll see. There's going to be a

453
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 2: lot to discuss.

454
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 3: What's the primetime games or not one o'clock games. I'm saying,

455
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 3: like Sunday night, Monday night, Thursday night four thirty games.

456
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: What's the over under.

457
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 2: Okay, I need to count how many one o'clock games

458
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 2: we had last I think.

459
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,880
Speaker 1: The over under right out of the game is five

460
00:21:57,920 --> 00:21:58,399
Speaker 1: and a half.

461
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 2: We had one, two, three, we had three in a row.

462
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 6: Four.

463
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,719
Speaker 2: We had five one o'clock games last season, so that

464
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:07,920
Speaker 2: means twelve.

465
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 1: Non, there you go, that's it. Five and a half

466
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 1: this year. I bet it is. Now.

467
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 3: We've lost a lot of players, maybe we've lost some

468
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 3: of the shine. Maybe people are down on I think

469
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 3: is a rebuilding year. Maybe take the under, maybe over

470
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 3: unders five.

471
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 2: I would say five is a good number because.

472
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 3: You know, the networks might say I don't know if

473
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 3: we're gonna I don't think so. I'm telling you I've

474
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 3: said again, Maddie, this team is a wagon and they're

475
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 3: gonna show it again.

476
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 2: I'm excited.

477
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: It's fun to think.

478
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 2: Well, one reason why the Bills could be on primetime

479
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 2: against some AFC East opponents. Uh, let's hit. This happened

480
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 2: Friday afternoon. According to Marcel Luis Jacques, the Dolphins have

481
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 2: agreed to terms on a contract with wide receiver Odell

482
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 2: Beckham Junior. It's a one year deal worth three million

483
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 2: dollars with incentives that can push it to eight point

484
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 2: twenty five million dollars. Odell played for the Ravens last season.

485
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 2: He had thirty five catches, five hundred and sixty five

486
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 2: receiving yards, and three touchdowns in six starts. He adds

487
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 2: to a room that already has Tyreek Hill and Jalen Waddle.

488
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 2: They also have John hus Smith the tight end. Does

489
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,680
Speaker 2: this addition make you more scared of the Dolphins?

490
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 3: Steve Well, No, but I do. I will acknowledge this.

491
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 3: OBJ is a good player, a really good player past

492
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 3: his prime. Maybe a couple of big, major injuries he's

493
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,880
Speaker 3: bouncing back from. He put together a nice season last year,

494
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 3: probably a less productive season than he would have in

495
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 3: a different offense or in a different situation. Good players

496
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,159
Speaker 3: make you better, and I think that's exactly where the

497
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 3: Dolphins are. He's the perfect guy to come in now,

498
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,919
Speaker 3: if he's ready to come in and sit behind Tyreek

499
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 3: Hill and Jalen Waddle and the rest of those guys.

500
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 3: Bless his heart, and that's kind of where he's at

501
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,360
Speaker 3: in his career making. He's probably got some self awareness

502
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 3: and knows that, but that's also a place where you're

503
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 3: gonna get a chance to show off some it's a

504
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 3: great offense.

505
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 2: You better believe Mike McDaniel is gonna scheme things in

506
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 2: for him.

507
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 3: Yes, they're gonna they're gonna sling it around and him

508
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 3: as a third option is is really good. Yeah, that's

509
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 3: not bad at all. So I think the Dolphins, kudos

510
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 3: to them. I think Obj and he's and let's face it,

511
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 3: he's still got some cachet in his name. Even if

512
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 3: he can't produce. People want to see that guy play

513
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 3: because we've seen him do it at a high level.

514
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 3: And uh, I think this year's second year off of

515
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 3: a cl is going to be feel like himself, more normal,

516
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:44,400
Speaker 3: he'll be. And and I think Mike McDaniel in Miami

517
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,120
Speaker 3: is too smart a coach not to use a guy

518
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 3: like Obj if he earns more reps.

519
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

520
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 3: I mean, they may not give him a chance early,

521
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,119
Speaker 3: may give him one or two targets a game, but

522
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 3: when they see what he does and all that, all

523
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:00,920
Speaker 3: of a sudden, him is the third option. When he's

524
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 3: getting your third corner or you know, a backup corner

525
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 3: or whatever and single cover. Yeah, all of a sudden,

526
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 3: he's he's he's a handful as you get down the

527
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 3: line in that pecking order, because you're certainly not going

528
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 3: to take much attention away from Tyreek and Jayalen Waddle

529
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,640
Speaker 3: has proven himself to be an outstanding guy coming into

530
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 3: his prime. Yeah, I do think Odell is a really

531
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 3: good signing for them. And we heard reports even Friday

532
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 3: that the Bills had been in on the conversation with him.

533
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,720
Speaker 3: You know, and whatever reason may was it money or

534
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 3: whatever situation made just Obj saying no, I want to

535
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 3: play in the warm weather. Who knows might have been

536
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:46,479
Speaker 3: even that he chose or it came through that they

537
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 3: he signed with the Dolphins and none of the other

538
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 3: five or six teams that were in the conversation. So yes,

539
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 3: I for my if I'm a Miami fan, I'm fan.

540
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 3: I am liking that that signing. I gotta be honest.

541
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 2: And also out of Jets camp, according to Robert Sala,

542
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 2: the head coach of the Jets, that Aaron Rodgers is

543
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:10,360
Speaker 2: going to have no restrictions once Phase three hits. Sala's

544
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 2: quote said, we're in. We're not anticipating any restrictions from

545
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 2: what we can and can't do with him. Their OTA

546
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 2: practices will begin on May twentieth, So seeming that the

547
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 2: Jets will be able to move in the right direction

548
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 2: with their QB alongside of a lot of their weapons

549
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 2: as they begin practicing for the twenty twenty four season.

550
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,440
Speaker 2: Good for the Jets. It'll be interesting to see if

551
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 2: the offensive line additions are just what Aaron Rodgers needs

552
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,640
Speaker 2: to feel safe and have a clean pocket.

553
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 1: Well, I know this.

554
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 3: I mean, it doesn't get easier to play quarterback the

555
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 3: older you get.

556
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:53,400
Speaker 1: It doesn't.

557
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 3: It's not easy to play professional football fully healthy, let

558
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 3: alone you know, kind of still rehabit and maybe not

559
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 3: being as physically capable as you once were. But Aaron Rodgers,

560
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 3: and famously he's got he's been at the attributes. He

561
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 3: has one of those kind of finger quotes of the

562
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 3: smartest guy in the room. He's a smart dude, and

563
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 3: there's no question about it. He's got to have a

564
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,199
Speaker 3: sense of self awareness and where his own limitations are.

565
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 3: And if he's smart, he's going to share that with

566
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,679
Speaker 3: the Jets and the coaching staff. They've got to build

567
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 3: this around him. He is as good a quarterback as

568
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:35,679
Speaker 3: they've had in well, if you listen to Mike green

569
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 3: Greenberg in that on ESPN. He's the best quarterback they've

570
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 3: had in his lifetime since Joe namath Ye, even at

571
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 3: forty years old. A lot of that is from the

572
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 3: neck up. So whatever he has physically, that's going to

573
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 3: be the big question mark. Not the smarts, not the understanding,

574
00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:57,400
Speaker 3: not the ability to think it through, but the physical

575
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 3: ability to execute a play.

576
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 1: When he's taxed. And it's just as intriguing this year

577
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: as it was a year ago.

578
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 2: It will be super intriguing to see can he jump

579
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 2: right in in week one and everything is all right?

580
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 2: You're gonna have OTAs in training camp to prepare for that,

581
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,360
Speaker 2: but once games start, it's a different type of ballgame.

582
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 2: You're not practicing. There's there's no thud, there's the quarterback

583
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 2: isn't as protected as as he is during practices. You're

584
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 2: it's for real once the once week one begins. So

585
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 2: I'm very, very interested to see what that transition period

586
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 2: is like for Aaron Rodgers. I mean, in the first round,

587
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,920
Speaker 2: the Jets draft Olufshanu out of Penn State with eleventh

588
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 2: overall pick, and in the offseason they add guys like

589
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 2: Tyron Smith John Simpson guard an offensive tackle, so they

590
00:28:55,040 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 2: added heavily to that offensive line, knowing what they needed

591
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 2: last last season, knowing what they didn't have. They also

592
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 2: draft a wide receiver and a running back in rounds

593
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 2: three and four, so they add pieces around Aaron Rodgers.

594
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 2: Are they in a state where they can pick up

595
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 2: and win some games? The defense has been good for

596
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 2: a couple of seasons. Now they'll continue to be good

597
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 2: just because in the names that they have on that team.

598
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 2: Quinn Williams, Sauce Gardner, Sauce Gardner, CJ. Moseley, a Son

599
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 2: Reddick are just a few of those pieces on that

600
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 2: defensive line.

601
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Jets are going to be a good football team.

602
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 3: They always give the Bills problems, particularly defensively, and actually,

603
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 3: you know, the Bills couldn't get it done against him

604
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 3: in Week one last year. Famously, Josh you know, started

605
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 3: out and I think think about it, that narrative that

606
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 3: started in Week one for the Bills never went away

607
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 3: the entire year. Josh threw three bad interceptions, two deep,

608
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 3: you know, three deep inner so right tasker that they

609
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 3: never came off it. That set the conversation for Josh

610
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 3: and this Bills team from Week one, and it never

611
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 3: nobody could get off even though the team was vastly

612
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 3: different from that. The rest of the way, nobody could

613
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 3: get off of Josh. Josh turns it over too much.

614
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 3: Josh turns it over too much. I was telling you, no,

615
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 3: he doesn't.

616
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 2: They won three straight games after that, Yes, loss.

617
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 3: They're really good in the first month of the season

618
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 3: under Sean McDermott. And famously last year, Josh throws the

619
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 3: three bad interceptions and.

620
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: That is it. Man.

621
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,239
Speaker 3: They people had the Bills in a in a you know,

622
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 3: they pigeonholed them into that where their quarterback turns it

623
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 3: over too much, took him out of the running for MVP.

624
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 1: Everything everything had started right then.

625
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 2: And but he finishes the year with most total touchdowns,

626
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 2: most red zone touchdowns.

627
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: Josh was an absolute jugger.

628
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 2: Five straight games at the end of the regular season

629
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:48,240
Speaker 2: to make.

630
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 3: It and win the division for the fourth time in

631
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 3: a row. They're the number two seed in the conference.

632
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 2: But our quarterbacks whatever.

633
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 1: That's where they're at.

634
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 2: So but it's it's do or die for for coach sala.

635
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 2: It is do or die for the Jets think they

636
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 2: gotta gotta win, yes, for them to keep their jobs.

637
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 3: I think it's it's do or die for Aaron Rodgers.

638
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 3: It's do or die for Aaron Rodgers, I mean, Robert Salah,

639
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 3: Daniel Hackett, maybe for Nate for the entire coaching staff.

640
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 3: We'll see and and it didn't get easier. You can

641
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 3: say what you want. I mean, I know people are

642
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 3: right now. The Bills have lost leadership, they've lost talent,

643
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 3: they've lost aught that that I lost all these names,

644
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 3: all these recognizable guys. I said this last week, Maddie.

645
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 3: I was part of a team that was hugely talented

646
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 3: and released a lot of players that were beloved in

647
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 3: nineteen ninety nine and the release of the if you

648
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 3: do it the Right way. The next year we went

649
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 3: to the first of four straight Super Bowls.

650
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: What happened.

651
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 3: Change is hard, It's hard, but man, oh man, if

652
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 3: you make it right, if you make it the right changes,

653
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 3: that's when you kind of get a chance to spread

654
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 3: your wings and let's go. And and that had nothing

655
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 3: to do with the players we released. They were great

656
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 3: and they continue to be really good players. But the

657
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 3: dynamics in the locker room and tweaking it just enough,

658
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 3: sometimes you get even better results than you've had before.

659
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 1: So it'll be fun to see.

660
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 2: It will be fun to see. We're taking a break,

661
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 2: but when we return, we're talking about our Twitter topic,

662
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 2: what needs to happen for the Bill's offense to take

663
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 2: the next step in twenty twenty four. Answering your calls

664
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 2: next here on One Bill's Live. Were presented by Claude

666
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 2: Bill's Live. Our topic today what needs to happen for

667
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 2: the Bill's offense to take the next step in twenty

668
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 2: twenty four. We've got some callers hanging on the lines.

669
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 2: We're going to go right over to the phones to Leslie,

670
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 2: who's been waiting for a while. Leslie, how are you

671
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 2: doing today?

672
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 4: Hi Maddie, Hi Steve, how are you?

673
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 2: We're doing good? What do you got for us?

674
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 4: Okay, it's about the size of our receivers. We've gotten

675
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 4: bigger and I like it. I went on Buffalo Bills

676
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 4: dot Com and I see we have two or three

677
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 4: that's six to one, one of them that's six to three,

678
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 4: and the rest of them, maybe three or four of

679
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 4: them is six ' four. Yes, who can stand up

680
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 4: to that? Arsenal? Offensive arsenal? We're gonna do it this year, all.

681
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 3: Right, thanks Leslie, And I'll say this, You're right, thanks Leslie.

682
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 3: There does seem to be a trend of Wow, does

683
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 3: seem to be a trend of getting big receivers. And

684
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 3: that's all well and good, but they got to play.

685
00:33:58,200 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 3: They gotta be good enough to get on the field.

686
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 3: You can't just plug big guys in there and expect

687
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 3: them to win unless they know how. Whether you're six '

688
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 3: four or five to four, you got to play. So

689
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 3: I see the philosophy. They started it last year. We

690
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 3: noticed it last year. We talked about it a lot

691
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 3: in the preseason with Terrell Shavers and the rest of

692
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 3: these guys, Justin Short, Justin Shorter coming in and they

693
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 3: had a couple other guys as well.

694
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 1: All of them were big.

695
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 3: All of them were tall, heavier dudes, fast, really athletic,

696
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,279
Speaker 3: but they couldn't get on the field. It was still

697
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 3: Steph Diggs and Gabe Davis when the season kicked off,

698
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,919
Speaker 3: and you know, it's you got to win the job.

699
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 3: So I'm all about having bigger guys. I know it

700
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 3: gives a defense a lot more different things to think about,

701
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 3: gives them a lot of challenges. As to what their matchups,

702
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 3: they what matchups they want to take advantage of as

703
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 3: a defense. Gives them some hard choices to make. But

704
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,120
Speaker 3: the guys still got to be good enough to play

705
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,359
Speaker 3: and win. So while it's a great philosophy, you got

706
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:00,200
Speaker 3: to have the right guy.

707
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 2: Yep, they add a Chase Claypool who's listed as six

708
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 2: to four. Keon Coleman is listed as six to three,

709
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 2: So you have some height there, Quintes Cephis and another

710
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:15,799
Speaker 2: recent addition six one, Mac Collins six ' four. So yeah,

711
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 2: they added some size to their arsenal this offseason, but

712
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:23,800
Speaker 2: what does that look like once OTAs begin, once training

713
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 2: camp begins. These guys got to earn spots on the

714
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 2: roster and and sizes is good and well, but with size,

715
00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 2: you also want somebody who can move, who has some

716
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 2: speed to him. That's what a lot of these receivers

717
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 2: had in the draft class. And and Keon Coleman, no,

718
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 2: he didn't have a four to four. But what Brandon

719
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 2: Bean told us after they drafted him is he plays

720
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 2: faster than his forty time and I think that's evident

721
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 2: when you turn on his film, when you watch the

722
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,920
Speaker 2: tape on Keon Coleman was that, Yeah, he does play

723
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,760
Speaker 2: faster than he You remember back to the gauntlet drill,

724
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 2: he was one of the fastest wide receivers doing that

725
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 2: drill and really stood out. So I'm very interested to

726
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 2: see how Joe Brady is gonna blend the size on

727
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 2: this roster. When you look at the wide receiver room

728
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 2: with what we've got in the tight ends room and

729
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 2: the running backs room as well, it'll be it'll be

730
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 2: a lot of fun. And hopefully size is in our

731
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,360
Speaker 2: favor this season. I mean, you want size in the

732
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,799
Speaker 2: red zone, and hopefully the Bills get into the red

733
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 2: zone a ton this season and can use that size

734
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,320
Speaker 2: as mismatches, because that's why you want size on your roster,

735
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 2: is to be able to get those mismatches and win

736
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 2: those one on one matchups. We hear about the game,

737
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 2: it's a game of matchups and you're trying to win

738
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 2: your matchup, whether you're on offense or on defense. And

739
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,319
Speaker 2: maybe that's why they decide to add a bunch of

740
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 2: size to their roster this season. We have seen an

741
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:03,960
Speaker 2: iteration of the Bill's offense where Sean McDermott was calling

742
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 2: them the Blue Smurfs because they were all smaller. This

743
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 2: is quite a change from a few seasons ago when

744
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 2: we had guys like John Brown and Cole Beasley on

745
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 2: the roster who are running things. Now you see guys

746
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 2: who are bigger. Cole Shakir six feet tall, Curtis Samuel

747
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 2: five to eleven. So you do have some of those

748
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,840
Speaker 2: smaller guys, but you see an influx of taller receivers

749
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 2: now on the roster.

750
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, and all cause go down, go down the list.

751
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 3: I mean, as you go down the roster that they're

752
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 3: listed in, I think these are well bye, well for

753
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 3: whatever reason they were listening in this order. Let's say

754
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 3: Chase Claypool sixty four to two thirty eight. kJ Hammler

755
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 3: is a five to nine guy. Then you go mc hollins,

756
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 3: he's six four to two twenty one. Uh Andy Isabella's

757
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 3: five nine a buck ninety, Curtis Samuel five eleven a

758
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 3: buck ninety five, Khalil's six foot a buck ninety. Then

759
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 3: you've got Terrell Shavers six four to two eleven, Justin

760
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 3: Shorter six four to two twenty three, and Brian Thompson

761
00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 3: sixty one buck ninety five. So there's there's a bunch

762
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 3: of guys who are six ft six ' four six

763
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:13,240
Speaker 3: four six four six four sixty one.

764
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 2: I think it'll be an interesting offseason for we're talking

765
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,919
Speaker 2: about the height on this roster in the wide receiver room,

766
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 2: for players like Justin Shorter and Tyrell Shavers. Does it

767
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 2: been I mention Kanzia, It'll be interesting to see what

768
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 2: they do in OTAs and in training camp. This is

769
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 2: their time to shine. Justin Shorter didn't play for much

770
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 2: of last season because of the injury that he had.

771
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 2: Tyrell Shavers as somebody who has flashed in training camp

772
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 2: and in OTAs who does have that speed to them.

773
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 2: Brandon Bean has discussed that before. He believes that they

774
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 2: do have some speed on their roster. We just haven't

775
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 2: seen it yet in games. So guys like that, can

776
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 2: they earn a spot on the roster. You're Justin Shorters,

777
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 2: You're Tyrrel Shavers. Brian Thompson is another name who has

778
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 2: been on this team on the practice squad. But this

779
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 2: is the time for guys like that to make a push.

780
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,759
Speaker 2: And yes, we have added quite a few names this offseason.

781
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 2: If you count, we have one, two, three, four, five, six,

782
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 2: seventy eight nine ten wide receivers on the roster currently.

783
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 2: That's not even counting Keon Coleman, who is not signed

784
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 2: yet and is not on the roster just yet but

785
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 2: is a part of some of the unsigned draft picks.

786
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 3: They usually go with about thirteen guys at the position,

787
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 3: but I think I've heard too that they're already with

788
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 3: this draft class. They're already like eighty five eighty eight guys,

789
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 3: So there's not that many, you know, slots left because

790
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 3: they're they're carrying some extra defensive line and extra offensive lineman.

791
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 3: They got some guys at other positions where they're kind

792
00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 3: of neck deep in. So we'll see how it goes

793
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:02,920
Speaker 3: to training camp. But the roster I just read off

794
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 3: to you with the addition to Keyon Coleman.

795
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:05,840
Speaker 1: You know, I'm.

796
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 3: It's good enough. I mean, they're good. They got the guys.

797
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 3: Khalilshakir changed everything for us last year when he became

798
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 3: a viable slot received. Not just a viable one, but

799
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 3: a dangerous one. I mean, you ask what he did

800
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,359
Speaker 3: in the Pittsburgh game, in the playoff game, I mean

801
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:25,280
Speaker 3: that he was fantastic. At the end of the season.

802
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,360
Speaker 3: I've got high hopes for him. Of course, Dalton Kincaid

803
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 3: could be, you know, a receiver receiving tight end the

804
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 3: likes of you know, Travis Kelcey. I said this last year.

805
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 3: I didn't really say it too much. I didn't say

806
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 3: it on the air last year because I didn't want

807
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 3: to do this to Dalton Kinkaid.

808
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 1: But if there was a.

809
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 3: Scenario where the Bills traded for Travis Kelcey last off

810
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 3: season and he took Dalton kin CAD's spot on our

811
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 3: roster and we didn't draft Dalton kin Kate, I would

812
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,800
Speaker 3: have expected Travis kelce to look I've never seen Travis

813
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 3: Kelcey practice. I've seen the guy play a ton just

814
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,359
Speaker 3: like all of us have. I would have expected, after

815
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:11,680
Speaker 3: all my years for Travis Kelcey to look exactly like

816
00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 3: Dalton kin Kay didn't training camp last year. Kink came

817
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,719
Speaker 3: in day one and was like bam, and he was

818
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:19,879
Speaker 3: catching balls off the turf. He was catching him high,

819
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 3: he was catching him behind him, he was open. He

820
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:25,359
Speaker 3: was impossible for these linebackers and safeties to go one

821
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 3: on one with just an absolute train wreck for.

822
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: These guys to defend. And he did it like first rep,

823
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: first drill.

824
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 3: So I still think he's gonna be that kind of player.

825
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:42,879
Speaker 3: I'm not saying he's gonna have a Hall of Fame

826
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 3: career all that, because is a lot of football needs

827
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,239
Speaker 3: to be played. But that's the kind of player he's

828
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 3: gonna be.

829
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 2: But also to that point, he starts in eleven games

830
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 2: last season, he has six hundred and seventy three yards,

831
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:56,240
Speaker 2: only two touchdowns. You have a year under your belt.

832
00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 2: Year two, let's go get out there, do more, score,

833
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:03,360
Speaker 2: more touchdowns, more receiving yard. You are going to be

834
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,480
Speaker 2: a big weapon in this offense. And now with the

835
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 2: year under his belt, a year with the playbook. He's

836
00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 2: been with Joe Brady for a season. Yes, Joe Brady

837
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 2: hasn't been an offensive coordinator for an entire season. He

838
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 2: took on that role halfway through the season. But there's

839
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 2: familiarity there. It's time to go in your second season.

840
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,040
Speaker 1: I'm it's early for this.

841
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 3: We'll get into this later on, but I'm I think

842
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 3: Dalton Kincaid is going to take a huge step for it.

843
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,320
Speaker 3: I think he's gonna get a he's got a thousand

844
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 3: yard season in him. I know it's only a second year,

845
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:36,840
Speaker 3: and I think we kind of wait till maybe the

846
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 3: third year that you kind of see a guy really

847
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 3: envelop his entire potential. But I think with the absence

848
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 3: of Steph and the app and the departure of Gabe,

849
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 3: I think, you know, this may accelerate that for him.

850
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 2: He's got an opportunity this season.

851
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 1: It certainly could happen.

852
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 2: All right, we're taking a break. When we return, we'll

853
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 2: get back to answering your phone calls, So keep hanging

854
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 2: on the line. Here will be back in just a

855
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 2: few on One Bill's Live, represented by Cluent Health on

856
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:22,439
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bill's Radio. Welcome back into One Bill's Live, Mattie

857
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:25,160
Speaker 2: Glab alongside of Steve Tasker, and we're going to go

858
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 2: right to the phones to Judy, who's been hanging online. Judy,

859
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 2: how are you doing today?

860
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:31,720
Speaker 4: Good?

861
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 5: Thank you? Okay. I'm intrigued by the purpose of a

862
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:40,240
Speaker 5: mini rookie camp. So you know, now all the rookies

863
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:44,760
Speaker 5: come in and are there any seasoned veterans on hand

864
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:47,919
Speaker 5: as well to help with the assessment. In other words,

865
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:52,560
Speaker 5: it's Josh Ellen and Tom. Are there some cornerbacks or

866
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,440
Speaker 5: safeties or alignment that can come in and help or

867
00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,439
Speaker 5: simply up to the coaches to assess these guys through

868
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 5: whatever ritual they put them through.

869
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,919
Speaker 3: Well, here's the thing. Don't get the wrong idea about

870
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 3: what it's about. They don't evaluate these guys. They've already

871
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 3: done that. The guys are in, they're on the team,

872
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 3: they're gonna get signed that. What they do here for

873
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 3: rookie Mini caamp is stuff that they don't need the

874
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 3: veterans to be a part of. Like, literally, this is

875
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:23,040
Speaker 3: the truth. Where's your locker, where's the team meeting room?

876
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,719
Speaker 3: Who are the trainers? Who you got to talk to

877
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 3: when you hurt, Who you got to talk to when

878
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 3: you feel good?

879
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:29,000
Speaker 1: Who you know?

880
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 3: Where your coach's office is, where your team meet, you

881
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 3: know where your position group meets. Where the weight room is,

882
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,920
Speaker 3: Which weight room, which weight coach do you work with?

883
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,520
Speaker 1: Who? It's it's all, I mean, that's basically what it is.

884
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 3: Plus they'll go out and they'll do some stuff on

885
00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,160
Speaker 3: the field, and maybe there will be some key veterans

886
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:49,319
Speaker 3: around like Josh or whoever or whoever whatever veterans have

887
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 3: come back want to get back into the swing of things.

888
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,000
Speaker 3: They'll be in working out and doing stuff.

889
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 2: There might be some guys rehabbing around, right.

890
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 3: There'll be some guys hanging around, because there always are.

891
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:02,320
Speaker 3: There's always a handful least of guys in the building

892
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 3: working out in the off season. But it's about the

893
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,879
Speaker 3: rookies getting acclimated to how their day is gonna look

894
00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 3: once it kicks off for real. And that's basically what

895
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,279
Speaker 3: it is. They're just learning their locker combination. I mean,

896
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 3: I'm laughing they don't have combination lockers, but you know

897
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,640
Speaker 3: what I mean. It's like first day of school. Where's

898
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 3: your locker? You know, how do you get your how

899
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:24,399
Speaker 3: do you get the clothes to work out in every day?

900
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:26,920
Speaker 3: It's all of that stuff, and that's basically what they do.

901
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 3: And there'll be some team building stuff. They'll get to

902
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:32,799
Speaker 3: know their coaches, their coaching staff, where they meet, how

903
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 3: they meet, what they're gonna do on a day to

904
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:38,200
Speaker 3: day basis. It's like that and that stuff that veterans

905
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,360
Speaker 3: could not possibly be less interested in.

906
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 2: They also have like a photo shoot day where we

907
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 2: run them through a bunch of stations where they have

908
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 2: to get in uniform. We have to take pictures of

909
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 2: them for the website, for the scoreboard, for the video board.

910
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,319
Speaker 2: So there's a lot of that going on as well,

911
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,360
Speaker 2: which we will do with the veterans later on, but

912
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:01,440
Speaker 2: a lot of the content that you guys from the rookies,

913
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,360
Speaker 2: we film all in one day, so that'll be happening

914
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,320
Speaker 2: soon and on Friday, they'll get out on the field.

915
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 2: We have a we're able to view practice for a

916
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 2: little bit and we'll talk to some of the rookies

917
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:16,760
Speaker 2: after that practice. I'll say practice and finger quotes because

918
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,360
Speaker 2: there won't be a full team out there. It'll be

919
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 2: the rookies and the udfas walking through things, probably doing

920
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,279
Speaker 2: a little bit of drills and learning. This is how

921
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,280
Speaker 2: practice goes. This is this is when we do stretch.

922
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:31,239
Speaker 2: This is when we do team, This is when we

923
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:34,880
Speaker 2: do individual. This is the part of the field that

924
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,839
Speaker 2: this position group works out on. This is where this

925
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 2: position group is at. This is how we go through stretch.

926
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,799
Speaker 2: So it's a lot of how do we operate. That

927
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:47,480
Speaker 2: is what rookie Mini Camp is for, so that by

928
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:51,560
Speaker 2: the time they start to blend with the veterans for OTAs,

929
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:53,719
Speaker 2: they know what is going on and you don't have

930
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:57,520
Speaker 2: to take up a lot of time teaching those rookies

931
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 2: how to do things, how to go about things. They

932
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 2: already know that, right, that's right. Let's go over to

933
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 2: Gary in Lancaster. Let me pull them up here.

934
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 7: Hey Gary, all right, so everyone's talking about what's going on.

935
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 7: It's a rebuilding here. I'm not sure that's true, but uh,

936
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:21,440
Speaker 7: it's a reloading year for sure. You can talk about rookies.

937
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:24,799
Speaker 7: You said it before. They're all coming in. We have

938
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:28,799
Speaker 7: the exact system to put them in. How they're good,

939
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 7: how well they do is is amazing, but you never know.

940
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:39,080
Speaker 7: We have the system. Whether they perform or not is good.

941
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 7: But who are our draft choices are gonna do well?

942
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:49,239
Speaker 7: So I think Kean is gonna do great. After that,

943
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,440
Speaker 7: we'll see, but we have a developmental product that will

944
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 7: do well.

945
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree with you. Yeah, you're right.

946
00:47:57,080 --> 00:48:01,720
Speaker 3: There's gonna be some new faces, but there I believe

947
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:04,600
Speaker 3: these new faces are gonna be.

948
00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:09,200
Speaker 1: Up to the task. From what I've seen, I.

949
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,560
Speaker 3: Think the biggest one, offensively, the biggest one obviously is

950
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:14,120
Speaker 3: Keon Coleman.

951
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:18,319
Speaker 1: And I think you know, everybody says, well, Steph Diggs

952
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:19,000
Speaker 1: isn't gonna be there.

953
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 3: Listen, the Bills have got some guys, and I think

954
00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:27,279
Speaker 3: they're gonna those guys are gonna do just fine, even

955
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,400
Speaker 3: better than that. I think this is still gonna be

956
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:34,000
Speaker 3: a team who's who's gonna be staring at the division

957
00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:38,120
Speaker 3: title again for the fifth year in a row. There's

958
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:41,759
Speaker 3: gonna be some changes, certainly to some familiar faces. But

959
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:47,560
Speaker 3: h I'm and I I'm just in the mind that

960
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 3: you're gonna have to give these guys a chance to

961
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:51,440
Speaker 3: earn your trust the way those other guys did who

962
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:55,520
Speaker 3: are gone poor your hide and those guys treedevious White.

963
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:57,839
Speaker 3: I think this is a group that are gonna earn

964
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,520
Speaker 3: your trust and your affection pretty fast. So we'll we'll

965
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:04,640
Speaker 3: see if that's indeed the case. Certainly, people can say

966
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:08,560
Speaker 3: what they want to about this roster, but I think

967
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:11,959
Speaker 3: most of the NFL who's counting the Bills as having

968
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:14,319
Speaker 3: a down year are going to be disappointed.

969
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:16,480
Speaker 2: I think we have a lot of key pieces that

970
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,200
Speaker 2: we're on the team last year that are on the

971
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,319
Speaker 2: team again this year. And then you fill in with

972
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,640
Speaker 2: the voids, You fill in where the holes are, and

973
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 2: I believe they did that through free agency and the draft,

974
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 2: and they do that with talented players who the scouting

975
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:32,680
Speaker 2: department has taken a lot of time to look at

976
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:36,719
Speaker 2: and assess. They believe that these additions can help the

977
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 2: team move forward.

978
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:39,800
Speaker 3: This team's been in the playoffs for six out of

979
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:43,440
Speaker 3: the last seven years. I don't think that's going to change.

980
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:45,920
Speaker 2: I'm really excited about what they have going on for

981
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:49,080
Speaker 2: this season. It may not look similar to last season

982
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:52,640
Speaker 2: in terms of players and what it looked like, but

983
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:57,000
Speaker 2: I think a different iteration, a different view of this

984
00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:00,319
Speaker 2: offense of this team can be good. Sometimes change can

985
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,080
Speaker 2: be good, and we'll see what that looks like when

986
00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 2: this team takes the field for OTA's coming up in

987
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,719
Speaker 2: just a few short weeks. We've got to take a

988
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:13,520
Speaker 2: break because Cynthia Freeland of NFL Networks, our analytics expert,

989
00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:16,080
Speaker 2: is joining us in the next segment here to talk

990
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:19,040
Speaker 2: about what she thought about the Bill's draft and a

991
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:22,200
Speaker 2: little bit of a projection for what she thinks Kean

992
00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:24,440
Speaker 2: Coleman could do in his rookie season. And let me

993
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:27,719
Speaker 2: tell you, guys, big numbers. So don't go anywhere here

994

Speaker 6: I've been playing with a bunch of rescue dogs, so

1005
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,719
Speaker 6: I'm just in from that. I'm trying to working on

1006
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:50,800
Speaker 6: something with rescue dogs. So the Good Bills people are listening,

1007
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 6: All Bill's mafia. If you have a good rescue dog

1008
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:56,840
Speaker 6: organization in Buffalo, send it to me on Twitter.

1009
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:57,600
Speaker 2: I like it.

1010
00:51:57,640 --> 00:51:58,880
Speaker 1: That awesome, that's a great idea.

1011
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:02,879
Speaker 3: I'm a big time dog owner, so that's awesome to hear. Yeah,

1012
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,319
Speaker 3: Tasker's got to do name for what else are you

1013
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:08,760
Speaker 3: doing anything with football these days? Numbers wise, analytics wise,

1014
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:10,359
Speaker 3: what are you doing these days in the off season?

1015
00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:13,719
Speaker 6: Well, the schedule's about to come out, so we've got

1016
00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:16,360
Speaker 6: to figure out everything. We know who, we know where,

1017
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 6: we just don't know when. So that should happen hopefully

1018
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 6: here in the next couple of days, maybe a week,

1019
00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:24,160
Speaker 6: but I'm very excited for that because it's kind of

1020
00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:27,680
Speaker 6: like the final cherry on top of everything getting ready

1021
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:30,960
Speaker 6: and then it's fully time to turn the page forward

1022
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:33,279
Speaker 6: and focus on all the games in twenty twenty four.

1023
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 6: So just getting really excited. The draft was incredible. I

1024
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:39,400
Speaker 6: am now lobbying for Buffalo to get a draft because

1025
00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 6: if Detroit can put up those kind of numbers, you

1026
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 6: can imagine how much fun it would be in.

1027
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:44,239
Speaker 1: Both home line.

1028
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:48,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll say this, it's a late April is a

1029
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:50,319
Speaker 3: little bit of a roll of the dice weatherwise.

1030
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:51,960
Speaker 2: It is for Detroit too.

1031
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, well they're on the other side of the lake though,

1032
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:59,120
Speaker 3: so yeah, I'm all about it, especially when they get

1033
00:52:59,120 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 3: the new stadium.

1034
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 1: Let's do it.

1035
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:00,600
Speaker 8: You know.

1036
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:02,200
Speaker 2: Oh, that would be a lot of fun.

1037
00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:05,920
Speaker 6: So I mean, it's okay because people who can, like Michigan,

1038
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 6: had the gamut of like we got there Wednesday, it

1039
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:12,880
Speaker 6: was cold, it was cold, Thursday, Friday it was rainy,

1040
00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,879
Speaker 6: soll it got it got nice, and then Saturday was hot.

1041
00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 6: Like it was crazy. We got we had all four

1042
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 6: seasons pretty much, just missing snow. But other than that,

1043
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:21,800
Speaker 6: you got all four seasons.

1044
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,839
Speaker 1: Wore hit the snow in April, we might be.

1045
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:28,000
Speaker 2: Able to hit the snow exactly. Well, Cynthia, you crushed

1046
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:30,359
Speaker 2: the draft. It was awesome to see you doing things.

1047
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:34,160
Speaker 2: I know you you take. I remember talking to you,

1048
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 2: maybe it was around the playoffs, I believe, and you

1049
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:39,480
Speaker 2: I was like, what are you doing? And you're you said,

1050
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:43,000
Speaker 2: I'm preparing for the draft. I'm like, it's the playoffs.

1051
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:45,880
Speaker 2: You're already preparing for the draft. So we know you

1052
00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,359
Speaker 2: took a lot of time to prep You killed it.

1053
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 2: And coming out of the draft, we got to talk

1054
00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 2: about what the Bills did. What is your assessment of

1055
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,359
Speaker 2: what Buffalo did in the first couple of rounds, Say,

1056
00:53:57,400 --> 00:54:00,239
Speaker 2: trade out an ied one and pick up a wide

1057
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 2: receiver in Keon Coleman, then pick up a safety and

1058
00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 2: Cole Bishop, and a defensive tackle in Dwayne Carter. What

1059
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:07,959
Speaker 2: do you think about those additions?

1060
00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 6: I mean all positions of need. I felt really bad

1061
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,200
Speaker 6: for the Bills fans that were in attendance because it

1062
00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:16,480
Speaker 6: was cold Thursday night, and there were some kids that

1063
00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:18,399
Speaker 6: were like, when are we gonna pick? But they all

1064
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:19,800
Speaker 6: had a lot of fun the next day, so it

1065
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,920
Speaker 6: was all okay. But ultimately I thought it was really

1066
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 6: smart for a team that needed to reload the way

1067
00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,279
Speaker 6: that the Bills did. It felt like they had a

1068
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 6: clear vision. It felt like they knew who they wanted

1069
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,320
Speaker 6: to get and where they could acquire them. They seemed

1070
00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:34,719
Speaker 6: to have a good handle on how far back they

1071
00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:38,760
Speaker 6: could trade for certain positions because obviously there's a few,

1072
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 6: you know, areas where the cupboard needed to be restucked,

1073
00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:45,520
Speaker 6: if you will. But getting all of those picks, I mean,

1074
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:48,000
Speaker 6: look at this. This is a ridiculous number of picks

1075
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 6: right here. And it felt like, I mean, you just

1076
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:53,200
Speaker 6: got to look at all of the like, I actually

1077
00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:55,960
Speaker 6: think many of these guys will be contributors right from

1078
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:58,280
Speaker 6: the jump. They're going to be really important, even starting

1079
00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:01,200
Speaker 6: like now, kind of getting there on the ground running

1080
00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:03,560
Speaker 6: like figuring out, like what are the strategies, How are

1081
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:05,920
Speaker 6: we going to look different? Because clearly the offense is

1082
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,040
Speaker 6: going to look different, and clearly the defense is going

1083
00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:10,000
Speaker 6: to look different. A lot of guys who've been there

1084
00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:12,759
Speaker 6: for key contributors for a long time are you know,

1085
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:15,920
Speaker 6: moving on and and it's time to restock.

1086
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:18,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you think about the first I don't know,

1087
00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:21,080
Speaker 3: maybe the five first six out of seven, five out

1088
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 3: of six, guys from Keon to Cole Bishop, even Ray Davis.

1089
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,520
Speaker 3: I mean those three guys could be you know, Davis

1090
00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:32,040
Speaker 3: could be in the rotation right away as well as

1091
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:35,359
Speaker 3: you know, the the defensive tackle as well. I mean

1092
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:39,680
Speaker 3: he's gonna be rotating in uh Van Pran Grainger, that

1093
00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:44,080
Speaker 3: guy could start. I mean it, It really does look

1094
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:46,400
Speaker 3: like they got some guys at the right spots that

1095
00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:47,360
Speaker 3: could step in and.

1096
00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:49,880
Speaker 1: At least compete right away.

1097
00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:53,720
Speaker 3: And I was gonna ask you why did Keon Coleman

1098
00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:56,319
Speaker 3: come to the Bills. I mean, it seems like now

1099
00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:57,960
Speaker 3: that we've got him and we start to dive a

1100
00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:00,279
Speaker 3: little deeper on him, you know, he's a twenty year

1101
00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:05,160
Speaker 3: old guy, a young guy still on the ascent, big athletic,

1102
00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 3: so it seems like a perfect fit for Buffalo. And

1103
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:10,879
Speaker 3: the fact that they knew he was still gonna be there,

1104
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:12,840
Speaker 3: really you're right led him to the value.

1105
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:16,040
Speaker 6: Yeah. Absolutely. I mean, well, first of all, before we

1106
00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:17,879
Speaker 6: get off of it, Van Pray and Granger, when when

1107
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:20,280
Speaker 6: that jersey is printed, can you send me a picture

1108
00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:22,399
Speaker 6: of it? Because that is the longest last name I've

1109
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:26,759
Speaker 6: ever seener. I mean, good thing he's a huge man,

1110
00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 6: because otherwise the like if it was like you can

1111
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:32,279
Speaker 6: be out there it was right, right, Maddie, it would

1112
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 6: be like, uh, we don't.

1113
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:39,000
Speaker 1: It's the fine print in my contract, right exactly.

1114
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:42,640
Speaker 6: But yeah, I mean, I think that when it came

1115
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 6: to Coleman, there was probably a sense that in this

1116
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:51,239
Speaker 6: organization and what they would like to do, meaning you know,

1117
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:53,360
Speaker 6: you have to have a guy who's able to handle

1118
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:56,480
Speaker 6: a fastball, because Josh Allen throws the ball really hard,

1119
00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,400
Speaker 6: as we know, you have to have a guy who's big, physical,

1120
00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 6: has enough cold weather experience to be able to understand

1121
00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,040
Speaker 6: the elements. Of course, you're looking at Florida State footage,

1122
00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:07,680
Speaker 6: and I don't think I need to remind anyone in

1123
00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:09,879
Speaker 6: Bill's mafia that he also played at Michigan State where

1124
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:13,840
Speaker 6: it's cold. But ultimately you're looking at a guy who

1125
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:15,960
Speaker 6: has a nose for the end zone in a way

1126
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 6: where especially if you look at his like they didn't

1127
00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:20,479
Speaker 6: play twelve as much as you guys will probably play

1128
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:23,280
Speaker 6: twelve out there this season, but you know he's going

1129
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 6: to have a chance to be a field stretcher, get

1130
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:28,000
Speaker 6: on the perimeter and take advantage of the fact that

1131
00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:31,080
Speaker 6: the middle's going to be crowded given that the Bills

1132
00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:33,840
Speaker 6: just have really great tight ends that can also handle

1133
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:35,800
Speaker 6: the ball. So I think that this is going to

1134
00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:37,919
Speaker 6: be a really nice move. Like I hate when people

1135
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:41,040
Speaker 6: say it's like addition by subtraction, but I think that

1136
00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:45,240
Speaker 6: in terms of what this offense in its reconstructed form

1137
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,080
Speaker 6: would like to do, this guy is a huge addition

1138
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:50,640
Speaker 6: given all of the subtractions.

1139
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:55,040
Speaker 2: Adding a weapon like Kean Coleman. You've been discussing rookies

1140
00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:58,600
Speaker 2: on NFL Network all week and projecting what they could

1141
00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:02,560
Speaker 2: do with a career that he had and the stats

1142
00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:06,160
Speaker 2: that he put up last season and beyond. You saw

1143
00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:10,040
Speaker 2: him get better every single year. What are you projecting

1144
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 2: for Kean in his rookie season.

1145
00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:14,800
Speaker 6: Well, I thought it was kind of funny. So it's

1146
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:18,080
Speaker 6: hard to project for rookies in general. It's harder when

1147
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 6: you don't know much about how their quarterback will perform

1148
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:23,120
Speaker 6: at the next level. So like the Roma Dundas of

1149
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:26,240
Speaker 6: the world, have a much different projection than someone who

1150
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:28,160
Speaker 6: is in a system with a guy like Josh Allen,

1151
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:32,480
Speaker 6: who is a very helpful known entity, and ultimately I

1152
00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 6: think nine is probably the floor. So we were talking about,

1153
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 6: of course, for fantasy football purposes, because clearly, in you know, May,

1154
00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:43,640
Speaker 6: we need to pick our fantasy lineups for sure. Tasker,

1155
00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:46,080
Speaker 6: I know he's already got his all set, his whole

1156
00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:49,000
Speaker 6: draft worth set already. But you know, I think when

1157
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:51,160
Speaker 6: you look at that, I just thought it was and

1158
00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:54,800
Speaker 6: again like just a little you know, a little interesting

1159
00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:57,920
Speaker 6: that that is actually one more touchdown than the guy

1160
00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,720
Speaker 6: who's now in Houston had. So it's it's just interesting,

1161
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:03,160
Speaker 6: you know. I thought that was an interesting number to

1162
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:04,440
Speaker 6: add to our analysis.

1163
00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:06,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, and when you when you talk about this about

1164
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:10,480
Speaker 3: where the Bills are going, we've we've been signing wide

1165
00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:14,320
Speaker 3: receivers at I don't want to say an alarming clip,

1166
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 3: but certainly we've got a lot of receivers on our

1167
00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:18,000
Speaker 3: roster and it and there's.

1168
00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:20,280
Speaker 2: Something eleven including yeah.

1169
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:23,640
Speaker 3: There's eleven including Keyon and five of them at least

1170
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:27,200
Speaker 3: five of them are six ' four. There's Chase Claypool,

1171
00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 3: they just signed Mac Hollins. They signed h Tyrrel Shavers

1172
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:35,080
Speaker 3: and Justin Shorter plus two others one six foot and

1173
00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:37,840
Speaker 3: Khalil Shakir and Brian Thompson's also six ' one.

1174
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:43,800
Speaker 6: I sense a trend, uh, Yeah, I think that's a

1175
00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:49,439
Speaker 6: pretty good friend to look for big physical guys. Also

1176
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:52,400
Speaker 6: seems like your tackles could probably fit that bill as well.

1177
00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:56,200
Speaker 6: But ultimately I think that the strategy is to find

1178
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:59,400
Speaker 6: the right ones. And there's so much this this sounds

1179
00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:01,920
Speaker 6: kind crazy, but you know, obviously you got to get

1180
01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:04,800
Speaker 6: your draft picks right, but sometimes more is better because

1181
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:06,600
Speaker 6: then you get to pick which one actually works for

1182
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:10,280
Speaker 6: your system. So ultimately here having and by the way,

1183
01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 6: I remember Chase Claypool in college had some tight end experience,

1184
01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:16,080
Speaker 6: so there could always be that rotational factor where you're like,

1185
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:19,160
Speaker 6: are we playing with eleven? But it's twelve? But it's

1186
01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:22,760
Speaker 6: really we don't know, like what's the disguised formations are

1187
01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 6: at advantage their strategic advantage. And even if you go

1188
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:28,400
Speaker 6: back to like Joe Brady's days at LSU, which you

1189
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:30,480
Speaker 6: if you're like me, you could go. You go watch it.

1190
01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:32,960
Speaker 6: I mean, they're there, it's it's fun to watch. But

1191
01:00:33,040 --> 01:00:35,320
Speaker 6: if you go, you know, you see that the tricks

1192
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:39,040
Speaker 6: and the disguised formations are really helpful. So if you

1193
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:41,760
Speaker 6: get a lot of guys with similar body types and

1194
01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:43,919
Speaker 6: you find the ones that do the things you want

1195
01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 6: them to do, perhaps you can leverage the fact that

1196
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:51,040
Speaker 6: in different alignments, the defense will be then very confused

1197
01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:53,680
Speaker 6: as to is this the time where he's playing tight end?

1198
01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:56,800
Speaker 6: Is this the time where the tight end's playing wide receiver? Like?

1199
01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:59,120
Speaker 6: How many? How many pass catchers do we have to

1200
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 6: account for? Perhaps we're gonna get a little messed up

1201
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:03,640
Speaker 6: and that will be advantage Bills.

1202
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:07,120
Speaker 2: I know it's tough parting ways with receiver like Stefan Diggs,

1203
01:01:07,120 --> 01:01:09,960
Speaker 2: who did so much for Buffalo in his four seasons.

1204
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:12,840
Speaker 2: We saw one thousand yards out of him every single

1205
01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:16,400
Speaker 2: season and four straight AFC East titles, which he was

1206
01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:20,280
Speaker 2: a big part of. But in that same line of talk,

1207
01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:24,160
Speaker 2: we heard Brandon Bean say we needed an infusion of

1208
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:28,120
Speaker 2: youth on this roster. You think about the salary cap,

1209
01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:31,160
Speaker 2: you think about the people that we're paying on this roster.

1210
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:34,600
Speaker 2: You've got a Josh Allen who's well into his contract

1211
01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:38,160
Speaker 2: and one of the best NFL quarterbacks. You have to

1212
01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:41,400
Speaker 2: pay people like that, and due to that, you also

1213
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:44,240
Speaker 2: have to add some younger people on the roster to

1214
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 2: make everything work. Joe Brady is going to be in

1215
01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 2: his first season as Buffalo's offensive coordinator, his first full

1216
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:54,520
Speaker 2: season we saw a little bit of what Joe Brady

1217
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:58,640
Speaker 2: was doing last season, haven't seen a full season yet.

1218
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:03,480
Speaker 2: Why should Bill's Mafia and not be afraid of this

1219
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:07,440
Speaker 2: change that could be coming that may actually help this

1220
01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:08,600
Speaker 2: team out.

1221
01:02:09,840 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 6: I think there's kind of two ways to look at it.

1222
01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:15,920
Speaker 6: Number One, getting quarterback right is the single most important

1223
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:20,400
Speaker 6: decision that any regime from coach to GM has to make.

1224
01:02:20,520 --> 01:02:25,120
Speaker 6: And quarterback is right, we can check that box definitively. Now,

1225
01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:28,920
Speaker 6: adding the fundamental weapons around him to me, always starts

1226
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 6: in the trenches, and the O line is constructed in

1227
01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:35,760
Speaker 6: a way that really optimizes for Josh Allen. Those two

1228
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:39,120
Speaker 6: things working hand in glove mean that the other complement

1229
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:43,800
Speaker 6: of pass catchers and ball runners they can be I'm

1230
01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:47,000
Speaker 6: not suggesting like that you're replacing Steffan Diggs. What I'm

1231
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:49,800
Speaker 6: suggesting is that for the amount of money that you

1232
01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:53,160
Speaker 6: pay for us Steffon Diggs, especially in this part of

1233
01:02:53,200 --> 01:02:56,640
Speaker 6: his career, now, could you get a lot of different

1234
01:02:56,680 --> 01:03:00,600
Speaker 6: pieces that work in a really competitive division. I meant

1235
01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:03,400
Speaker 6: is kind of a total nightmare at this point. So

1236
01:03:03,720 --> 01:03:06,600
Speaker 6: when you're looking at all of those things combined, it's like, well,

1237
01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:09,880
Speaker 6: now we need to restock for safety. We need to

1238
01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:12,840
Speaker 6: restock at corner. We got the line needs a little

1239
01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:15,360
Speaker 6: bit of help in the middle, like all of these things. Right,

1240
01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:20,680
Speaker 6: So you're you're looking at how to scarcity rules the

1241
01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:22,840
Speaker 6: day and that's not a it doesn't sound nice, but

1242
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:25,120
Speaker 6: it's true for all of us. Right. So, there are

1243
01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:28,320
Speaker 6: fewer Josh Allen's in this world than there are people

1244
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:30,320
Speaker 6: who can catch footballs. And now I'm not saying they're to

1245
01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:33,040
Speaker 6: the caliber of Stefan Diggs, but I'm saying that you're

1246
01:03:33,160 --> 01:03:36,680
Speaker 6: gonna get a lot of different opportunities to create different

1247
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:40,280
Speaker 6: offensive looks with a multitude of guys. Then you're gonna

1248
01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:42,920
Speaker 6: get from what you had to pay Stefan Digs in

1249
01:03:42,960 --> 01:03:45,680
Speaker 6: this in this portion of his career. And that's just

1250
01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:48,360
Speaker 6: the way the business goes. It's not nice, but it's

1251
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:50,720
Speaker 6: it's sometimes away goes. But by the way, he's not

1252
01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:53,680
Speaker 6: paying income tax, personal income tax and Texas, he's fine,

1253
01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:54,800
Speaker 6: you know, big raise.

1254
01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:56,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly one thing too.

1255
01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:58,000
Speaker 3: And I know that I don't want to put you

1256
01:03:58,040 --> 01:03:59,760
Speaker 3: on the spot, but it's hard enough for Maddie and

1257
01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:01,960
Speaker 3: me Brownie to keep track of the bills and what's

1258
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:03,760
Speaker 3: going on with them. But if you look at the

1259
01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:05,400
Speaker 3: Bills draft, and I was gonna ask you about the

1260
01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:08,080
Speaker 3: rest of them, maybe the AFC East the Bills, and

1261
01:04:08,480 --> 01:04:10,320
Speaker 3: I didn't think about this until the day or two

1262
01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:12,360
Speaker 3: after we started talking about all these draft picks. The

1263
01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:15,320
Speaker 3: Bills got help, if you call all these draft picks

1264
01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:19,720
Speaker 3: help at all three levels on both sides of the ball.

1265
01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:22,720
Speaker 3: You got a running back, a wide receiver, you got

1266
01:04:22,720 --> 01:04:26,600
Speaker 3: an offensive a couple of offensive linemen. Then you got you know,

1267
01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:30,600
Speaker 3: a defensive tackle, a defensive end, a corner, and a

1268
01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 3: safety and a linebacker on the defensive. They got help

1269
01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:38,520
Speaker 3: and competition at every single level on both sides of

1270
01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:42,640
Speaker 3: the ball. And that's basically I mean, it's like a

1271
01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:45,160
Speaker 3: fairy tale, right. I Mean, you never really think you're

1272
01:04:45,160 --> 01:04:47,040
Speaker 3: gonna be able to do that. But with ten picks,

1273
01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:49,920
Speaker 3: it's like the old days when I got drafted, Like

1274
01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:52,800
Speaker 3: there's eleven rounds and stuff. Everybody gets ten new guys, right,

1275
01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:55,680
Speaker 3: But this is unusual, I think, and I think the

1276
01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:59,240
Speaker 3: Bills really did a nice job of bolstering the entire

1277
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:01,000
Speaker 3: group of positions.

1278
01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:05,760
Speaker 6: I think the other thing that can't be overstated here is,

1279
01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:08,480
Speaker 6: you know, maybe not all of these guys make the

1280
01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:11,760
Speaker 6: fifty three, but some end up on the scout team.

1281
01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:14,320
Speaker 6: But if we learned anything from last year, we learned

1282
01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:19,520
Speaker 6: that the injury bug has absolutely no discretion as to when,

1283
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:23,240
Speaker 6: who or why. And being able to restock like this

1284
01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:26,360
Speaker 6: with those many, with those many would I don't speak

1285
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:30,840
Speaker 6: English anymore, with that many different players gives you the opportunity.

1286
01:05:30,880 --> 01:05:34,240
Speaker 6: Then if something's really terrible and if one position group

1287
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:37,800
Speaker 6: gets totally messed up, like what happened onto the defense

1288
01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:40,320
Speaker 6: last year, like now you have guys who will have

1289
01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:44,600
Speaker 6: been in the system since May and know what's going on,

1290
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:47,480
Speaker 6: and you'll be able to have a better shot of

1291
01:05:47,560 --> 01:05:51,240
Speaker 6: replacement value being higher. Then you're never going to get

1292
01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:55,120
Speaker 6: as good as your you know starters, right, You'll your

1293
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:57,840
Speaker 6: replacement level, though, will be much higher than guys who

1294
01:05:57,880 --> 01:05:59,160
Speaker 6: aren't as familiar with the system.

1295
01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:01,600
Speaker 2: Well, let's look at the AFC East. The New York

1296
01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:05,360
Speaker 2: Jets drafted offensive tackle Alufashanu with their first pick, and

1297
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:09,080
Speaker 2: the Patriots at the third pick in the NFL Draft.

1298
01:06:09,120 --> 01:06:12,080
Speaker 2: They go ahead and grabbed Drake May out in North Carolina,

1299
01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:15,000
Speaker 2: and then the Dolphins later on in the first round

1300
01:06:15,160 --> 01:06:19,400
Speaker 2: draft and edge rusher in Chop Robinson. Which AFC East

1301
01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:25,320
Speaker 2: team got better got? How would you rate them one, two, three,

1302
01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:29,080
Speaker 2: four in terms of how the draft looked for each team?

1303
01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,880
Speaker 6: Where does Aaron Rodgers factor into this? Because to me,

1304
01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:36,200
Speaker 6: that's a really big thing for the Jets, that's a

1305
01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:39,680
Speaker 6: huge factor. Being able to get Olu fash now will

1306
01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:41,960
Speaker 6: help them. Their O line was a big problem for

1307
01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:45,360
Speaker 6: them last year Miami. I like Chop Robinson a lot.

1308
01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:48,480
Speaker 6: I thought they had an exceptional Day three. I think

1309
01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:51,560
Speaker 6: the Patriots are still in rebuilding mode. I thought it

1310
01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:54,440
Speaker 6: was really fun to hear Drake maybe like, yeah, I

1311
01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:57,200
Speaker 6: get to play you know, with like the position that

1312
01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:59,160
Speaker 6: one of the best of all times, so to speak.

1313
01:06:59,480 --> 01:07:01,440
Speaker 6: Later at the I don't know. It was very funny,

1314
01:07:01,480 --> 01:07:03,080
Speaker 6: like you could tell he was nervous and he'll just

1315
01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:05,280
Speaker 6: get better at these pressers. But it was. It was

1316
01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:08,240
Speaker 6: very sweet and cute, So you know, I think there

1317
01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:11,320
Speaker 6: were some pluses and minuses. In general, I still think

1318
01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:15,720
Speaker 6: it's the Bills to control a lot of it again

1319
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:20,240
Speaker 6: comes down to injuries. But I think Aaron Rodgers coming

1320
01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:23,640
Speaker 6: back is going to be a pain. It's going to

1321
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:27,480
Speaker 6: be a pain for non Jets teams in general.

1322
01:07:27,600 --> 01:07:29,560
Speaker 1: Oh, I think so I'll say this too.

1323
01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:31,840
Speaker 3: We said it's it is going to come down to

1324
01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:34,160
Speaker 3: Aaron and this is and it is a even we

1325
01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:36,080
Speaker 3: thought last year when they pushed all their chips to

1326
01:07:36,080 --> 01:07:38,880
Speaker 3: the table, Aaron Rodgers and all the guys they got

1327
01:07:38,920 --> 01:07:42,040
Speaker 3: to this year, it's like do or die if if

1328
01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:46,280
Speaker 3: it doesn't go well this year, they're going to detonate

1329
01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:49,960
Speaker 3: the entire floor and park facility and start from scratch.

1330
01:07:49,960 --> 01:07:50,439
Speaker 1: Am I right?

1331
01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:53,920
Speaker 6: I don't see any other way around it. I mean,

1332
01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 6: I'm not you know, I don't wish that on anyone,

1333
01:07:56,880 --> 01:08:00,520
Speaker 6: but it just feels like you had the two years ago,

1334
01:08:00,760 --> 01:08:03,840
Speaker 6: the offensive and defensive rookie of the year on the

1335
01:08:03,880 --> 01:08:06,440
Speaker 6: same team, and now you're in a position where you

1336
01:08:06,720 --> 01:08:09,920
Speaker 6: just can't. I mean, obviously last year was was bad luck, right,

1337
01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:12,080
Speaker 6: I mean four snaps that's bad luck for anyone, even

1338
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:13,680
Speaker 6: if you're playing against them and you don't want them

1339
01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:17,360
Speaker 6: to win, as Bills fans would agree. But at the

1340
01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:19,960
Speaker 6: end of the day, it's still bad luck. And I mean,

1341
01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:23,519
Speaker 6: I don't know, it's it's hard they now the Jets

1342
01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:27,960
Speaker 6: now have the longest playoff drought in playoff history or

1343
01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:31,000
Speaker 6: in professional history. Because the Lions, you know made it

1344
01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:33,599
Speaker 6: to the playoffs last year, so that's that's an interesting one.

1345
01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:36,559
Speaker 6: But it will come down to this one. And and

1346
01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:39,639
Speaker 6: I'm I'm really curious to see how it goes because

1347
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:42,519
Speaker 6: I don't know if one O lineman and O line

1348
01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,200
Speaker 6: makes However, Tyron Smith, they did a lot of moves

1349
01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:48,000
Speaker 6: in free agency to address the line. But you know, again,

1350
01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:50,000
Speaker 6: it's gonna come down to health. Like if those guys

1351
01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:53,720
Speaker 6: can't stay healthy either, you know you it'll be It's

1352
01:08:53,760 --> 01:08:56,000
Speaker 6: gonna be. This is one of the bigger and more

1353
01:08:56,040 --> 01:09:00,080
Speaker 6: fascinating headlines. Like last year, we couldn't stop saying his name,

1354
01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:01,080
Speaker 6: and I was like, if I have to hear this

1355
01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:03,600
Speaker 6: name one more timeline. I like, Aaron Rodgers is so

1356
01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:05,519
Speaker 6: fun to watch, but like, good lord, and this year,

1357
01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:07,840
Speaker 6: I don't think we've heard it enough, right, we haven't

1358
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:09,280
Speaker 6: People kind of forget about it.

1359
01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:12,280
Speaker 3: You're you're still high on Aaron in his ability to

1360
01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:14,760
Speaker 3: play forty years old coming off an achilles. Now he's

1361
01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:18,040
Speaker 3: been he's been set as limited, You're still high on

1362
01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:19,280
Speaker 3: his ability to get it done.

1363
01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:24,840
Speaker 6: I am, because you know, despite watching him be one

1364
01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:27,320
Speaker 6: of the best hell mary throwers that I've ever seen,

1365
01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:32,559
Speaker 6: he still gets the pre snap stuff right, the reads

1366
01:09:32,640 --> 01:09:37,000
Speaker 6: are right, the between the ear stuff is great. He

1367
01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,439
Speaker 6: is not as much of a pocket guy as some

1368
01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:42,400
Speaker 6: of his contemporaries were, like the Peytons and even the

1369
01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:44,880
Speaker 6: tom Brady's Right of the World. So he does have

1370
01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:47,639
Speaker 6: a bit more of that mobility, but he doesn't rely

1371
01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:50,360
Speaker 6: on it to the point where he's Anthony Richardson and

1372
01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:53,080
Speaker 6: he's you know, constantly rushing when he doesn't know where

1373
01:09:53,160 --> 01:09:55,559
Speaker 6: to go. He gets those first, second, and third reads

1374
01:09:55,560 --> 01:10:00,400
Speaker 6: completely right. So I mean, I until, obviously i'd like

1375
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:02,760
Speaker 6: to see him on the field because no one. Achilles

1376
01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:05,799
Speaker 6: is a real injury and people you know, don't often

1377
01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:08,799
Speaker 6: it's hard to recover. I mean, shoot, I at forty

1378
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:11,599
Speaker 6: like a hangover last three days, so you know, it's

1379
01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:15,840
Speaker 6: it's crazy to think, but I do think that, I

1380
01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:18,720
Speaker 6: you know, assuming he's healthy. Yeah, and I'm still worried

1381
01:10:18,720 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 6: about him.

1382
01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:22,000
Speaker 2: One more question for me, Cynthia. It has to do

1383
01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:24,840
Speaker 2: with the wide receivers that went at the bottom of

1384
01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:28,599
Speaker 2: the first round. You look at Brian Thomas Junior going

1385
01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:32,559
Speaker 2: to the Jags and Xavier Worthy going to or going

1386
01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:36,160
Speaker 2: to the Chiefs, and Ricky Piersoll going to the forty

1387
01:10:36,240 --> 01:10:40,639
Speaker 2: nine ers and Xavier Lagett going to the Panthers, which

1388
01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:44,280
Speaker 2: one of these guys could have a big first season

1389
01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:47,439
Speaker 2: as a rookie with the fits of the teams that

1390
01:10:47,479 --> 01:10:48,000
Speaker 2: they went to.

1391
01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:52,519
Speaker 6: I mean, Leget's gonna be asked to do a lot

1392
01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:55,880
Speaker 6: because there is a lot to do in Carolina. Is

1393
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:58,680
Speaker 6: also the worst kept secret in football that like, the

1394
01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:01,120
Speaker 6: Panthers love this kid. Did I think they were going to,

1395
01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,320
Speaker 6: you know, trade up one spot with a I don't know,

1396
01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:05,240
Speaker 6: I don't. I didn't think about it that much, but

1397
01:11:05,600 --> 01:11:08,760
Speaker 6: you knew they were really gunning for him. I just

1398
01:11:08,840 --> 01:11:11,120
Speaker 6: think that it's just going to be a matter of volume,

1399
01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:13,560
Speaker 6: Like just just like I think, you know, Kean is

1400
01:11:13,560 --> 01:11:15,439
Speaker 6: going to have a lot of volume. I think they

1401
01:11:15,479 --> 01:11:17,240
Speaker 6: need a lot of help there. I mean, Adam Fieland's

1402
01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:20,120
Speaker 6: great and Deontay Johnson was a great addition, but I

1403
01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:21,840
Speaker 6: think they're going to ask a lot of Leget. I

1404
01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:25,560
Speaker 6: think that that offense in general needs a huge infusion,

1405
01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:27,639
Speaker 6: and that's what they were looking for. So, I mean,

1406
01:11:27,960 --> 01:11:31,040
Speaker 6: Pierce All's great and he's fast, but I think that

1407
01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:32,840
Speaker 6: you know, they've got a lot of mouths to feed

1408
01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:35,479
Speaker 6: in San Francisco and Xavier Worthy's kind of a home

1409
01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:38,040
Speaker 6: run guy, but not necessarily a guy who you're I

1410
01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:40,479
Speaker 6: wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't crack a thousand yards

1411
01:11:40,560 --> 01:11:43,920
Speaker 6: right like that. That would be very not shocking, even

1412
01:11:43,960 --> 01:11:45,960
Speaker 6: though he's a deep ball guy and super fast, just

1413
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,080
Speaker 6: because they've got a lot of mouths to feed as well,

1414
01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:51,720
Speaker 6: assuming all their receivers come back and they have the

1415
01:11:52,080 --> 01:11:54,160
Speaker 6: people we think they're gonna have. But we know Travis

1416
01:11:54,240 --> 01:11:56,760
Speaker 6: Kelsey still there, that's for sure, so that's going to

1417
01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:57,320
Speaker 6: be interesting.

1418
01:11:57,400 --> 01:11:59,880
Speaker 1: Cynthia, good stuff is always. Thanks so much for spendius

1419
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:00,640
Speaker 1: time with us.

1420
01:12:00,640 --> 01:12:04,000
Speaker 6: We'll catch around guys. We know it.

1421
01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:06,960
Speaker 2: I know all right over here soon. Appreciate you, Cynthia,

1422
01:12:07,040 --> 01:12:08,160
Speaker 2: have a great rest of your week.

1423
01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:09,320
Speaker 1: All right.

1424
01:12:09,520 --> 01:12:13,479
Speaker 2: That was NFL Networks Cynthia Freeland joining us on One

1425
01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:17,559
Speaker 2: Bills Live. I really found it interesting that the projection

1426
01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:21,840
Speaker 2: I love nine touchdowns projected for Keon Coleman, like sign

1427
01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:25,000
Speaker 2: me up for that. We were I was just working

1428
01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:27,760
Speaker 2: and happened to look up and she was on paths

1429
01:12:27,800 --> 01:12:29,600
Speaker 2: to the draft. I believe it was the show that

1430
01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:31,880
Speaker 2: she was on and did the projection for Keon. I

1431
01:12:31,920 --> 01:12:34,879
Speaker 2: was like, let's go Yeah, we got.

1432
01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:37,120
Speaker 3: To get what am I What am I picturing for

1433
01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:39,000
Speaker 3: this offense, for this Bills out How do I really

1434
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:40,800
Speaker 3: think it's going to look like when you look when

1435
01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:43,200
Speaker 3: you look at the end of the season, looking back

1436
01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:48,080
Speaker 3: at stats and stuff like that, I really picture Kincaid

1437
01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:52,320
Speaker 3: having a thousand yard season, and I think Khalil Shakir

1438
01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:58,759
Speaker 3: having like eight hundred but more catches, and then Keon Coleman.

1439
01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:00,799
Speaker 3: It's hard for me to get to where were Cynthia

1440
01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:03,360
Speaker 3: she breaks it down. Yeah, I could see Coleman having

1441
01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:05,320
Speaker 3: some touchdowns and getting down there and being a guy

1442
01:13:05,320 --> 01:13:07,720
Speaker 3: who can get open and catch it, and the contested

1443
01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:11,320
Speaker 3: catches as you always get in the red zone. Yeah,

1444
01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:13,599
Speaker 3: it's it's gonna be really interesting to see how this

1445
01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:16,880
Speaker 3: offense takes shape and what the Bills really feel like

1446
01:13:16,920 --> 01:13:19,640
Speaker 3: they've got on their hands. And I've been harping on

1447
01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:22,840
Speaker 3: this and this kind of my mantra for the off season.

1448
01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:24,960
Speaker 3: We don't not only do we not know who they

1449
01:13:24,960 --> 01:13:27,400
Speaker 3: were gonna pick. Even now we know that, we still

1450
01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:29,280
Speaker 3: don't know what they think about the guys they've already

1451
01:13:29,280 --> 01:13:35,040
Speaker 3: got Khalil Shakir, Dalton Kinkaid, Dawson, Knox, you know, we

1452
01:13:35,040 --> 01:13:37,479
Speaker 3: don't know what they think about those guys justin Shorter,

1453
01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:41,920
Speaker 3: you know all that Tyrrell, Shavers, Mac Hollins, all the

1454
01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:44,200
Speaker 3: new guys that we have no idea what they're evaluate

1455
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:46,639
Speaker 3: Andy Isabella, we have no idea what they think about

1456
01:13:46,880 --> 01:13:50,479
Speaker 3: or aj kJ Hammler. We don't know what the Bills

1457
01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:53,639
Speaker 3: think about their own guys, and we still don't even

1458
01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:55,920
Speaker 3: though we know they must like Keyon a lot. You know,

1459
01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:58,240
Speaker 3: they must like Van Prang Grainger a lot, they must

1460
01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:01,519
Speaker 3: like Cole Bishop a lot. All okay, but what do

1461
01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:03,360
Speaker 3: they think they can do and what they bring to

1462
01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:05,479
Speaker 3: And you kind of have to wait until you see

1463
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:08,799
Speaker 3: him snap the ball to get an idea of like, okay,

1464
01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:10,679
Speaker 3: this is where we wanted this guy right here? Watch

1465
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:13,360
Speaker 3: this and you know you kind of can't wait to

1466
01:14:13,400 --> 01:14:13,640
Speaker 3: do that.

1467
01:14:13,800 --> 01:14:17,280
Speaker 2: We'll start to see little sneak peeks and OTAs, and really,

1468
01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:19,679
Speaker 2: once we get into training camp is when we start

1469
01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:22,200
Speaker 2: to see, Okay, where do they think these guys could fit?

1470
01:14:22,520 --> 01:14:25,439
Speaker 2: How are they using them in practices? Things like that.

1471
01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:28,760
Speaker 3: Even though I say I'm excited and I am, it

1472
01:14:28,800 --> 01:14:33,080
Speaker 3: still means I'm subjected to watching practice, which is not

1473
01:14:33,160 --> 01:14:33,920
Speaker 3: my favorite thing.

1474
01:14:33,880 --> 01:14:37,040
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, Tasker, I wanted to check before we

1475
01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:39,519
Speaker 2: go to break. I wanted to check how many times

1476
01:14:39,600 --> 01:14:41,840
Speaker 2: Keon was mocked to the Bills, because you know, I

1477
01:14:41,960 --> 01:14:46,320
Speaker 2: track those mock drafts, and we obviously knew that Brian

1478
01:14:46,360 --> 01:14:49,559
Speaker 2: Thomas Junior and ad Ni Mitchell were the top two

1479
01:14:49,760 --> 01:14:53,439
Speaker 2: being mocked to Buffalo. Number three was Troy Franklin. He

1480
01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:56,679
Speaker 2: was mocked to Buffalo thirteen times, and then Keon Coleman

1481
01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:59,680
Speaker 2: was fourth, So he was right in the wheelhouse for

1482
01:15:00,240 --> 01:15:03,880
Speaker 2: projections to Buffalo. We saw his name get mocked to

1483
01:15:03,920 --> 01:15:07,320
Speaker 2: the Bills quite a bit earlier on rather than later on.

1484
01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,479
Speaker 2: I would say around Combine time is when his name

1485
01:15:10,640 --> 01:15:14,160
Speaker 2: was popular being linked to the Bills via mock drafts.

1486
01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:17,400
Speaker 2: And look back at it and he was one of

1487
01:15:17,439 --> 01:15:21,519
Speaker 2: the top five players being mocked to Buffalo. So makes

1488
01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:24,920
Speaker 2: sense that now he's part of the Buffalo Bills organization

1489
01:15:25,080 --> 01:15:28,040
Speaker 2: and the people who are doing the mock drafts guess

1490
01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:29,120
Speaker 2: they know what they're talking about.

1491
01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:31,719
Speaker 3: I mean, coming in, had we had the list of guys,

1492
01:15:31,720 --> 01:15:32,880
Speaker 3: we sho didn't know where they were gonna go. We

1493
01:15:32,960 --> 01:15:34,640
Speaker 3: knew we had no shot at the top three at

1494
01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:39,120
Speaker 3: Dounza neighbors and Harrison Junior. We figured Brian Thomas we'd

1495
01:15:39,160 --> 01:15:41,439
Speaker 3: have an outside shot at but he goes at twenty

1496
01:15:41,479 --> 01:15:43,559
Speaker 3: three and nobody could move up to get him. So

1497
01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:45,320
Speaker 3: then yeah, here we go, you know. And now it's

1498
01:15:45,360 --> 01:15:47,080
Speaker 3: the rest of the guys we were talking about for

1499
01:15:47,160 --> 01:15:50,439
Speaker 3: months on end, and certainly you know, Kean was one

1500
01:15:50,439 --> 01:15:52,040
Speaker 3: of the dudes we were talking about.

1501
01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:54,400
Speaker 2: All right, when we return, we're gonna go back to

1502
01:15:54,479 --> 01:15:57,120
Speaker 2: the phone lines, answer a couple more calls, and dip

1503
01:15:57,240 --> 01:16:00,080
Speaker 2: into our topic that we have today for you. So

1504
01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:02,519
Speaker 2: what needs to happen for the Bill's offense to take

1505
01:16:02,520 --> 01:16:04,799
Speaker 2: the next step in twenty twenty four. We'll be answering

1506
01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:07,240
Speaker 2: your calls next year. On One Bill's Live, give us

1507
01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:09,920
Speaker 2: a call at eight oh three, five fifty. We're presented

1508
01:16:09,920 --> 01:16:24,240
Speaker 2: by Clida Help. This is Buffalo Bills Radio. We're back

1509
01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:27,679
Speaker 2: here on One Bill's Live, Maddy Glad alongside of Steve Tasker.

1510
01:16:27,760 --> 01:16:30,879
Speaker 2: We want to go back to the phone lines to Donnie,

1511
01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:34,080
Speaker 2: who's been hanging on for a little while. Donnie, how

1512
01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:34,479
Speaker 2: you doing?

1513
01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:36,880
Speaker 8: I'm doing good? Can you hear me?

1514
01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:39,240
Speaker 2: Yep, we can hear you loud and clear. What do

1515
01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:39,920
Speaker 2: you got for us?

1516
01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:45,160
Speaker 8: Awesome. I just got that. Uh, you know, first time caller,

1517
01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:48,240
Speaker 8: longtime listener. I love you guys. I agree with everything

1518
01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:50,960
Speaker 8: you say. I just want to bring it back to uh,

1519
01:16:51,960 --> 01:16:57,599
Speaker 8: you know, Josh Allen. Everybody criticizing him about interceptions and whatnot.

1520
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:00,680
Speaker 8: I feel like interceptions are part of the game. You know,

1521
01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:08,280
Speaker 8: like Brett Farves, Joe Namath, Peyton Manning. How many interceptions

1522
01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:11,200
Speaker 8: have they thrown and are still considered one of the

1523
01:17:11,240 --> 01:17:14,320
Speaker 8: greatest ever, you know what I mean? Not Joe name

1524
01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:17,360
Speaker 8: it so much, you know, but you know, I just

1525
01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:19,880
Speaker 8: want to say that it's part of the game. You

1526
01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:22,599
Speaker 8: cannot be a great defense, you can't be an all

1527
01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:26,519
Speaker 8: pro cornerback without catching some interception. It's part of the game.

1528
01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:30,320
Speaker 8: Josh Allen, he does not play scared. He's a monster.

1529
01:17:30,439 --> 01:17:31,000
Speaker 7: He's a beast.

1530
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:35,640
Speaker 8: In my opinion, he is the best football player in

1531
01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:42,160
Speaker 8: the league by Nune. You know, as far as what

1532
01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:44,680
Speaker 8: we got to do this season, we take what we have.

1533
01:17:45,280 --> 01:17:48,559
Speaker 8: We dink and dunk like Tom Brady and the Patriots

1534
01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:51,880
Speaker 8: did in those early two thousand seasons, and those small

1535
01:17:51,920 --> 01:17:54,519
Speaker 8: plays you make plays out of them, you can never

1536
01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:59,479
Speaker 8: tell what happened. Do not take anything away from Josh Allen.

1537
01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:02,880
Speaker 8: You cannot take anything away from Josh Allen. I don't

1538
01:18:02,880 --> 01:18:07,960
Speaker 8: want to hear any criticizing of that man. He has

1539
01:18:08,479 --> 01:18:09,080
Speaker 8: a beast.

1540
01:18:09,400 --> 01:18:11,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, thanksfully call Donnie. You're right.

1541
01:18:11,520 --> 01:18:14,280
Speaker 3: I mean, there's more to love about Josh than there

1542
01:18:14,320 --> 01:18:17,439
Speaker 3: is to hate. And people will always hate on the

1543
01:18:17,479 --> 01:18:20,519
Speaker 3: other team's quarterback. That's we hate on Mahomes, although you

1544
01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:22,280
Speaker 3: got to tip your hat and respect the guy.

1545
01:18:23,360 --> 01:18:24,439
Speaker 1: He's all that.

1546
01:18:25,120 --> 01:18:28,240
Speaker 3: But you know, we like our guy, right. The Jets

1547
01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:32,240
Speaker 3: like their guy Aaron Rodgers. Everybody who drafted a quarterback

1548
01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:34,240
Speaker 3: this year is excited about their guy. He's going to

1549
01:18:34,320 --> 01:18:36,599
Speaker 3: be the guy right until he's proved, until he proves

1550
01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:41,639
Speaker 3: his not. You're right, Josh is special. There's no doubt

1551
01:18:41,680 --> 01:18:45,559
Speaker 3: about it. I've said it a ton. He is one

1552
01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:49,439
Speaker 3: of the few guys in the entire National Football League

1553
01:18:49,479 --> 01:18:53,559
Speaker 3: who can take the perfect defensive call against him and

1554
01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:57,000
Speaker 3: turn it into a touchdown. There is less than a

1555
01:18:57,040 --> 01:18:59,599
Speaker 3: handful of guys who can do that, and maybe three.

1556
01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:05,240
Speaker 3: It's Josh, It's Lamar, and it's Pat. Those three guys

1557
01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:08,800
Speaker 3: can do it anytime you pull it out on them. Now,

1558
01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:11,840
Speaker 3: some guys can do it once in a while and

1559
01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:13,640
Speaker 3: there's a there's a maybe a handful of guys that

1560
01:19:13,680 --> 01:19:17,800
Speaker 3: can do that, but Josh, Pat and Lamar can do it.

1561
01:19:18,400 --> 01:19:22,000
Speaker 1: Any point at any point. So that's why they're special.

1562
01:19:23,240 --> 01:19:26,040
Speaker 3: I think this is a year where while it might

1563
01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:30,280
Speaker 3: be a better year to anticipate success for the Bills

1564
01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:33,160
Speaker 3: on this emotional level, where it's like, all right, now

1565
01:19:33,200 --> 01:19:35,760
Speaker 3: that everybody has counted us out kind of thing, now

1566
01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:37,880
Speaker 3: we're really you know, Josh's gonna show him who he is.

1567
01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:42,760
Speaker 3: I'll say it again. That opening game loss last year

1568
01:19:42,800 --> 01:19:47,479
Speaker 3: to the Jets set a tone for the rhetoric that

1569
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:50,320
Speaker 3: surrounded the Bills outside of Buffalo for the entire year.

1570
01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:53,280
Speaker 3: Nobody got off it. And I even if it was

1571
01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:55,800
Speaker 3: if it didn't ring true, as the season wore on,

1572
01:19:56,160 --> 01:19:58,160
Speaker 3: you couldn't get rid of it. Josh turns the ball

1573
01:19:58,160 --> 01:20:02,599
Speaker 3: over too much. The Bills, you know, aren't gonna do anything.

1574
01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:04,560
Speaker 3: And John, you know they're they're not good enough or

1575
01:20:04,600 --> 01:20:06,559
Speaker 3: whatever particular and and I get this too. They were

1576
01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:08,120
Speaker 3: six and six twelve games in, so a lot of

1577
01:20:08,160 --> 01:20:10,560
Speaker 3: people had a reason to think they're gonna take a

1578
01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:15,639
Speaker 3: step back. One of the things that happened last year.

1579
01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:20,280
Speaker 3: Let's not forget when Ken Dorsey, when they made the

1580
01:20:20,360 --> 01:20:23,000
Speaker 3: change from Ken Dorsey, and Ken Dorsey departed and Joe

1581
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:25,519
Speaker 3: Brady took over, this team went on a run, an

1582
01:20:25,640 --> 01:20:31,639
Speaker 3: unprecedented run, and it never changed. And even they were

1583
01:20:31,680 --> 01:20:34,720
Speaker 3: six and six, that they were hard to beat and

1584
01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:38,760
Speaker 3: nobody beat him by more than a possession, and that's

1585
01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:44,160
Speaker 3: when they were struggling at six and six. Don't think

1586
01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:47,479
Speaker 3: that's gonna change. Don't think that's gonna change. They're gonna

1587
01:20:47,479 --> 01:20:49,679
Speaker 3: be in a lot of tight ball games, and every

1588
01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:52,839
Speaker 3: game they lose is going to be a tight, tightly

1589
01:20:52,880 --> 01:20:55,320
Speaker 3: contested affair. And then they're gonna they're gonna roll on

1590
01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:59,800
Speaker 3: some people. That's who they are and say what you

1591
01:21:00,200 --> 01:21:03,400
Speaker 3: about who's on the team and who they've lost. Sean McDermott,

1592
01:21:03,920 --> 01:21:06,880
Speaker 3: his hallmark as an NFL coach has been to maximize

1593
01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:09,559
Speaker 3: the guys he does have on his team. And they

1594
01:21:09,640 --> 01:21:12,360
Speaker 3: just got a bunch of really good players. So we'll see.

1595
01:21:13,120 --> 01:21:15,479
Speaker 3: I'll take my chances with this crew and this year

1596
01:21:15,640 --> 01:21:18,680
Speaker 3: as well. I like where they're headed and where they

1597
01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:20,600
Speaker 3: ended up last year and the things they've got to

1598
01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:21,040
Speaker 3: build on.

1599
01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:22,759
Speaker 1: So I'm with you. Donnie.

1600
01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:25,720
Speaker 3: Josh is as good a player as there is at

1601
01:21:25,840 --> 01:21:27,960
Speaker 3: any position in the National Football League, and it just

1602
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:31,000
Speaker 3: so happens he's a quarterback for the Buffalo.

1603
01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:33,040
Speaker 2: Bills, and you better believe that he wants to go

1604
01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:39,320
Speaker 2: into this season focusing on limiting the interceptions, limiting the turnovers.

1605
01:21:39,800 --> 01:21:42,920
Speaker 2: He had eighteen interceptions last year. That was the second

1606
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:45,720
Speaker 2: most in the NFL. But the dude also threw five

1607
01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:48,680
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy nine pass attempts, which ties for the

1608
01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:52,320
Speaker 2: fifth most in the NFL. He had three hundred and

1609
01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:55,840
Speaker 2: six passing yards, fourth most in the NFL. He had

1610
01:21:56,240 --> 01:22:00,479
Speaker 2: forty eight hundred offensive yards, first in the NFL. So

1611
01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:03,360
Speaker 2: the more you put yourself out there, the more that

1612
01:22:03,439 --> 01:22:06,360
Speaker 2: interceptions and things like that are going to happen. It's

1613
01:22:06,439 --> 01:22:09,720
Speaker 2: just the nature of the game doesn't mean that it's

1614
01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:12,760
Speaker 2: okay for that many to happen. He worked on it

1615
01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:16,120
Speaker 2: throughout the season. When this dude got into the playoffs,

1616
01:22:16,360 --> 01:22:19,720
Speaker 2: the turnovers were not an issue and they haven't been

1617
01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:22,600
Speaker 2: for his career. He locks it in in the playoffs,

1618
01:22:22,680 --> 01:22:26,960
Speaker 2: locks it down. You gotta believe he's focused on limiting

1619
01:22:27,000 --> 01:22:31,400
Speaker 2: that number this upcoming season. And this goes perfectly into

1620
01:22:31,720 --> 01:22:35,040
Speaker 2: our Twitter topic for today. What needs to happen for

1621
01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:38,040
Speaker 2: the Bills offense to take the next step in twenty

1622
01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:41,240
Speaker 2: twenty four. We'll start with Emily, who says, similar to

1623
01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:46,839
Speaker 2: the last few games of the season, get everyone involved, Cook, Concage, Shakir,

1624
01:22:47,240 --> 01:22:50,040
Speaker 2: maintain a good run game while also balancing it out

1625
01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:53,840
Speaker 2: by playing the tight ends prioritizing yards after catch with

1626
01:22:53,920 --> 01:22:58,879
Speaker 2: the wide receivers. I believe this is what this offense

1627
01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:03,920
Speaker 2: could look like under Joe Brady. I think people have

1628
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:07,839
Speaker 2: a hard time of imagining an offense that looks different

1629
01:23:07,920 --> 01:23:11,760
Speaker 2: from how we've seen it the last three to four seasons.

1630
01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:14,880
Speaker 2: With Stephan Diggs. It was Josh gets the ball to

1631
01:23:14,920 --> 01:23:19,120
Speaker 2: Stefan Diggs, the offense gets a first down, they move

1632
01:23:19,160 --> 01:23:21,599
Speaker 2: their way down the field. You spread the ball out

1633
01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:23,760
Speaker 2: a little bit here and there, but your number one

1634
01:23:23,840 --> 01:23:27,200
Speaker 2: guy is Stefan Diggs. That may not be the case

1635
01:23:27,280 --> 01:23:31,240
Speaker 2: this upcoming season, but that may be a good thing

1636
01:23:31,640 --> 01:23:35,040
Speaker 2: because that means you might have the ability to fool

1637
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:38,519
Speaker 2: a few defenses. I think Joe Brady has some stuff

1638
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:41,640
Speaker 2: up his sleeve. This team, I believe, is going to

1639
01:23:41,680 --> 01:23:45,360
Speaker 2: be a more balanced team in terms of running the football.

1640
01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:48,519
Speaker 2: We have heard Sean McDermott say that the head coach.

1641
01:23:48,560 --> 01:23:52,240
Speaker 2: We've heard our general manager, Brandon Bean say that. We've

1642
01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:55,160
Speaker 2: heard Joe Brady, the new offensive coordinators say that we

1643
01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:57,400
Speaker 2: want to be able to run the football. We want

1644
01:23:57,439 --> 01:24:02,000
Speaker 2: to be a balanced team. Cook had a great last season.

1645
01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:07,120
Speaker 2: James Cook can take another step ahead, step forward in

1646
01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:09,960
Speaker 2: this year. In twenty twenty four, Ray Davis can add

1647
01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:12,800
Speaker 2: to the lineup. You got Ty Johnson there as well,

1648
01:24:12,840 --> 01:24:15,559
Speaker 2: who is a hard runner when he was on the field.

1649
01:24:16,160 --> 01:24:19,599
Speaker 2: A balanced running attack takes the heat off of Josh

1650
01:24:19,640 --> 01:24:23,439
Speaker 2: Allen and adds another wrinkle to your game. You factor

1651
01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:26,120
Speaker 2: the tight ends in there, adult and kid Kate to

1652
01:24:26,240 --> 01:24:30,759
Speaker 2: Dawson Knox Kaid taking another step forward in his second

1653
01:24:30,880 --> 01:24:35,000
Speaker 2: NFL season. The wide receivers. In that wide receiver room,

1654
01:24:35,120 --> 01:24:38,600
Speaker 2: you have a rookie wide receiver who teams do not

1655
01:24:38,920 --> 01:24:42,640
Speaker 2: have tape on when it comes to NFL games. I

1656
01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:45,559
Speaker 2: believe that Joe Brady is going to do some things

1657
01:24:45,840 --> 01:24:49,839
Speaker 2: that trick opposing defenses. That's why I think this Bill's

1658
01:24:49,840 --> 01:24:51,559
Speaker 2: offense could take a step forward.

1659
01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:54,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there's every reason to believe that's their plan.

1660
01:24:55,240 --> 01:24:57,679
Speaker 3: Joe Brady's got a fresh slate to work with. There's

1661
01:24:57,720 --> 01:25:00,360
Speaker 3: only one guy in the room as a RECEI that

1662
01:25:00,479 --> 01:25:03,439
Speaker 3: caught a ball from Josh last year, so nobody. Everybody's

1663
01:25:03,439 --> 01:25:04,840
Speaker 3: got to come in kind of with a clean slate,

1664
01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:08,280
Speaker 3: no expectations. They're gonna have to earn everything they get.

1665
01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:12,880
Speaker 3: Listen and down the stretch. When so much was made

1666
01:25:12,880 --> 01:25:17,120
Speaker 3: about Steph Diggs and his production dropping off in the

1667
01:25:17,200 --> 01:25:19,200
Speaker 3: last half of the year, when Joe Brady took over,

1668
01:25:19,560 --> 01:25:22,880
Speaker 3: his targets didn't drop that significantly. They might have dropped

1669
01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:28,680
Speaker 3: ten percent, but his production dropped fifty percent. That's a problem.

1670
01:25:29,200 --> 01:25:31,680
Speaker 3: But the team went one in that direction, right. They

1671
01:25:31,720 --> 01:25:35,160
Speaker 3: still actually got better in the one loss column, even

1672
01:25:35,160 --> 01:25:39,960
Speaker 3: if Steph's production percentage went down without his targets going down.

1673
01:25:41,360 --> 01:25:41,960
Speaker 1: There's just a.

1674
01:25:41,920 --> 01:25:44,320
Speaker 3: Lot of things to me that speak about an offense

1675
01:25:44,360 --> 01:25:47,240
Speaker 3: that while on the surface, you're going to see some

1676
01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:50,240
Speaker 3: different names, no question about it, but I don't know

1677
01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:54,519
Speaker 3: that You're gonna have to probably study the tape really

1678
01:25:54,920 --> 01:25:59,040
Speaker 3: hard to notice any differences in the way the offense

1679
01:25:59,120 --> 01:26:03,920
Speaker 3: looks or feels, because you're gonna they're gonna feed the

1680
01:26:03,960 --> 01:26:07,000
Speaker 3: guys who are giving him the best production, and whoever

1681
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:09,799
Speaker 3: that is, somebody's gonna take over for Steph Diggs. Somebody's

1682
01:26:09,840 --> 01:26:11,479
Speaker 3: gonna get the targets that would have gone to him,

1683
01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:13,519
Speaker 3: whether it's two or three different guys or whatever. But

1684
01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:15,920
Speaker 3: the production, I would say, is gonna look more like

1685
01:26:15,960 --> 01:26:17,640
Speaker 3: it did at the end of the season than it

1686
01:26:17,680 --> 01:26:20,280
Speaker 3: did in the first half of the season, just because

1687
01:26:20,280 --> 01:26:22,519
Speaker 3: of Joe Brady and this new offense. Now you got

1688
01:26:22,560 --> 01:26:28,720
Speaker 3: new players who are gonna get what they earn. I

1689
01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:30,479
Speaker 3: don't know what's gonna look like. I don't know what

1690
01:26:30,520 --> 01:26:33,280
Speaker 3: the target share is gonna be. But when you say,

1691
01:26:33,400 --> 01:26:36,559
Speaker 3: like run a balanced attack, I think in the NFL

1692
01:26:36,640 --> 01:26:39,320
Speaker 3: these days you're looking at like like a thirty six

1693
01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:42,759
Speaker 3: thirty seven percent run. If you're a run heavy team, yes,

1694
01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:44,880
Speaker 3: it's gonna be a sixty it's gonna be a sixty

1695
01:26:44,960 --> 01:26:47,240
Speaker 3: six sixty nine per throwing rate.

1696
01:26:47,360 --> 01:26:48,960
Speaker 2: You don't want to fully take the ball out of

1697
01:26:49,000 --> 01:26:49,640
Speaker 2: the playmakers.

1698
01:26:49,680 --> 01:26:51,679
Speaker 3: But there are a lot of downs like first and ten,

1699
01:26:52,200 --> 01:26:56,519
Speaker 3: second and two, or second and three, maybe second, two

1700
01:26:56,600 --> 01:27:01,040
Speaker 3: to four that are run none like like neutral run

1701
01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:04,360
Speaker 3: or pass downs. Certainly third and longgin or throw it.

1702
01:27:04,840 --> 01:27:06,600
Speaker 3: You know, first and ten you run or throw it

1703
01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:09,360
Speaker 3: that kind of thing, And second and medium or whatever

1704
01:27:09,400 --> 01:27:11,840
Speaker 3: you can run or throw it. Then you can go

1705
01:27:11,920 --> 01:27:14,519
Speaker 3: fifty to fifty on the run pass, but everything else

1706
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:17,960
Speaker 3: you gotta you gotta throw it. You gotta throw it

1707
01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:21,719
Speaker 3: to win it. And so I don't think this offense,

1708
01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:25,200
Speaker 3: I don't think even the coaching staff has any idea

1709
01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:27,639
Speaker 3: what this is gonna look like with new faces everywhere,

1710
01:27:27,960 --> 01:27:29,160
Speaker 3: And I think that's a fun thing.

1711
01:27:29,080 --> 01:27:29,639
Speaker 1: To think about.

1712
01:27:30,280 --> 01:27:32,040
Speaker 2: That could be the good thing, that could be the

1713
01:27:32,040 --> 01:27:33,839
Speaker 2: thing that pushes this team forward.

1714
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:38,599
Speaker 3: With Josh pulling the trigger, They're gonna be potent. They're

1715
01:27:38,640 --> 01:27:40,880
Speaker 3: gonna be a they're gonna be a wagon again this year.

1716
01:27:40,920 --> 01:27:43,920
Speaker 3: They're gonna they're gonna play well, They're gonna Yeah, I'm

1717
01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:47,240
Speaker 3: totally confident that this offense is gonna be very productive.

1718
01:27:47,400 --> 01:27:50,480
Speaker 2: All Right, when we return, we'll round out the Twitter

1719
01:27:50,560 --> 01:27:53,360
Speaker 2: topic from today, read a couple more, and close things

1720
01:27:53,439 --> 01:27:55,400
Speaker 2: up here at One Bill's Live or Present by clydah

1721
01:27:55,400 --> 01:28:13,439
Speaker 2: Health on Buffalo Bills Radio. What needs to happen for

1722
01:28:13,479 --> 01:28:15,880
Speaker 2: the Bills offense to take the next step. In twenty

1723
01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:19,080
Speaker 2: twenty four, we're diving into your responses on our tweets

1724
01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:21,479
Speaker 2: sheet brought to you by Corgan Moving Systems, the official

1725
01:28:21,479 --> 01:28:24,479
Speaker 2: equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills, and Kurt says

1726
01:28:24,880 --> 01:28:29,160
Speaker 2: he expects Coleman to surprise in Claypool to prove many wrong.

1727
01:28:29,320 --> 01:28:31,880
Speaker 2: Are you thinking the same fight?

1728
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:32,240
Speaker 6: Yeah?

1729
01:28:32,280 --> 01:28:34,080
Speaker 3: I think Coleman's going to be a good player. Chase

1730
01:28:34,080 --> 01:28:36,920
Speaker 3: Claypool has a lot to prove, and if he proves

1731
01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:39,320
Speaker 3: people wrong, good on him.

1732
01:28:39,520 --> 01:28:42,720
Speaker 1: Good on him. But I think we're all there. Let's

1733
01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:45,719
Speaker 1: see it. That's basically it. Let's see what you got.

1734
01:28:45,800 --> 01:28:49,840
Speaker 3: And of course the expectations for Keon are off the charts,

1735
01:28:49,880 --> 01:28:51,559
Speaker 3: you know, as they always are for a first round

1736
01:28:51,640 --> 01:28:52,040
Speaker 3: draft pick.

1737
01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:56,600
Speaker 2: I think players like Chase Claypool who have been journeymen

1738
01:28:56,720 --> 01:28:59,439
Speaker 2: of the NFL. He's not up there in twelve years

1739
01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:02,120
Speaker 2: being in this league and has played in seven different

1740
01:29:02,640 --> 01:29:06,000
Speaker 2: seven different cities, but he has made his way around

1741
01:29:06,040 --> 01:29:10,360
Speaker 2: to a few different teams. And I believe players like

1742
01:29:10,439 --> 01:29:14,439
Speaker 2: that who haven't seen success yet, true success come to

1743
01:29:14,520 --> 01:29:18,880
Speaker 2: a team like Buffalo because one, there's a quarterback named

1744
01:29:18,920 --> 01:29:21,320
Speaker 2: Josh Allen here who you'd be lucky to play with,

1745
01:29:21,400 --> 01:29:25,559
Speaker 2: and two, there's a proven locker room culture here with

1746
01:29:25,720 --> 01:29:28,680
Speaker 2: coaches who can elevate you as a player and as

1747
01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:29,120
Speaker 2: a person.

1748
01:29:29,120 --> 01:29:31,400
Speaker 3: If you can't make it with your work ethic and

1749
01:29:31,439 --> 01:29:35,920
Speaker 3: your character here, you can't make it anywhere.

1750
01:29:36,479 --> 01:29:38,719
Speaker 1: Because this is it's built to make you the best

1751
01:29:38,720 --> 01:29:39,160
Speaker 1: you can be.

1752
01:29:39,240 --> 01:29:41,200
Speaker 3: And if they, if these guys get their hands on it,

1753
01:29:41,280 --> 01:29:44,400
Speaker 3: you don't improve or something doesn't change, it's you.

1754
01:29:45,800 --> 01:29:47,160
Speaker 1: It's you. So we'll see.

1755
01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:49,519
Speaker 2: All right, Well, I think we can agree that this

1756
01:29:49,640 --> 01:29:53,040
Speaker 2: bill's offense in twenty twenty four is going to be exciting.

1757
01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:56,080
Speaker 2: We're anticipating what it will look like. That's going to

1758
01:29:56,120 --> 01:29:58,479
Speaker 2: do it for us today here on what Hills Lie,

1759
