WEBVTT - The Sean McDermott Show, Week 11

0:00:03.400 --> 0:00:08.959
<v Speaker 1>Finding the way. Find the way every week. Camolo Buffalo,

0:00:13.560 --> 0:00:16.480
<v Speaker 1>no overthinking. All right, go play football. We'll play the football.

0:00:18.480 --> 0:00:20.560
<v Speaker 1>It's an exciting time to be a Buffalo Bill and

0:00:20.640 --> 0:00:28.920
<v Speaker 1>a fan of the Buffalo Bills. Welcome into Week eleven

0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:31.760
<v Speaker 1>of the Sean McDermott Show, presented by Connors and Ferris,

0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:34.800
<v Speaker 1>your workers comp attorneys. I'm Steve Tasker, pleased to be

0:00:34.920 --> 0:00:37.640
<v Speaker 1>joined once again by Sean McDermott. Coach, Thanks as always

0:00:37.640 --> 0:00:40.360
<v Speaker 1>for joining us. You guys bounced back in a huge

0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:42.520
<v Speaker 1>way with a win over the Jets on the road.

0:00:42.960 --> 0:00:45.280
<v Speaker 1>What'd you think of the way your team responded after

0:00:45.280 --> 0:00:48.120
<v Speaker 1>the loss in Jacksonville? Well, I thought they made the

0:00:48.159 --> 0:00:51.120
<v Speaker 1>appropriate adjustments, quite honestly, Steve and we had talked about

0:00:51.120 --> 0:00:53.360
<v Speaker 1>some things during the week, things we needed to do,

0:00:53.520 --> 0:00:56.200
<v Speaker 1>things we needed to get fixed, and they responded both

0:00:56.240 --> 0:00:57.680
<v Speaker 1>off the field and on the field. And I thought

0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:00.400
<v Speaker 1>all three phases really put together a complete game. He

0:01:00.480 --> 0:01:02.760
<v Speaker 1>came off your lowest scoring game of the year, but

0:01:02.800 --> 0:01:05.280
<v Speaker 1>then you put up a season high forty five points.

0:01:05.520 --> 0:01:07.560
<v Speaker 1>Your offense also had a season high four hundred and

0:01:07.600 --> 0:01:10.720
<v Speaker 1>eighty nine yards. You average nine yards of play, you

0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:12.760
<v Speaker 1>went for six, you went six for seven in the

0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:15.720
<v Speaker 1>red zone. Seemed like Brian Dayball really mixed up the

0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:18.880
<v Speaker 1>looks with different personnel packages and drew up some explosive plays.

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:21.880
<v Speaker 1>What impressed you most about the way your offense played

0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:25.199
<v Speaker 1>this week? Yeah, they played great team offense. I really

0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:27.040
<v Speaker 1>believe that. I know the word is used a lot

0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:29.440
<v Speaker 1>thrown around a lot on defense, team defense, but in

0:01:29.480 --> 0:01:31.600
<v Speaker 1>this case, I thought it was team offense, with the

0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:34.560
<v Speaker 1>offensive line, the backs, the tight ends, and the receivers

0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:37.120
<v Speaker 1>all chipping in in some way, shape or formed to

0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:39.959
<v Speaker 1>get the production that you just detailed for us here. Yeah,

0:01:40.000 --> 0:01:43.080
<v Speaker 1>your quarterback was back on track. Josh was twenty one

0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:46.119
<v Speaker 1>of twenty eight for three to sixty six two touchdowns

0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:48.760
<v Speaker 1>against the Jets. You had three hundred and five yards

0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:52.760
<v Speaker 1>on play action passes. That's the second most ever recorded

0:01:53.080 --> 0:01:56.279
<v Speaker 1>in the next GIN stats era. What was different about

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:58.680
<v Speaker 1>your passing game this week that got Josh in the

0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:02.040
<v Speaker 1>offense back on track? Well, again, you mentioned it. I

0:02:02.080 --> 0:02:04.320
<v Speaker 1>thought Brian Dable caught a great game and had a

0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:06.440
<v Speaker 1>great game plan with the offensive staff, and then the

0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:09.360
<v Speaker 1>players executed. You know one thing that I will mention

0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:13.280
<v Speaker 1>is I thought the multiplicity of the offensive looks I

0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:16.080
<v Speaker 1>thought was key and giving the defense different looks and

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:18.520
<v Speaker 1>keeping them off balance. So that's something that we've got

0:02:18.520 --> 0:02:20.760
<v Speaker 1>to continue to do moving forward. All Right, Let's be

0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:24.240
<v Speaker 1>honest for the fans at home, getting Josh on track

0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:27.720
<v Speaker 1>is as much about getting Stefan Diggs going. And he

0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:29.600
<v Speaker 1>went out and had a monster day. He looked like

0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:32.280
<v Speaker 1>the Stefan Diggs we got used to watching last season.

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.360
<v Speaker 1>He had eight catches for a buck sixty two and

0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:37.560
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown. Seemed like the Jets did not have an

0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:41.280
<v Speaker 1>answer for him. How does his success fuel other parts

0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:44.359
<v Speaker 1>of your offense. Well, he's a great energizer for us.

0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:46.680
<v Speaker 1>He's a catalyst earl in the game he was for us,

0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:50.240
<v Speaker 1>and the intensity that Steph brings to practice, the intensity

0:02:50.240 --> 0:02:53.720
<v Speaker 1>he brings to the game on Sundays is unmatched. And

0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:56.240
<v Speaker 1>the players felt that the energy that he brought to

0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:58.440
<v Speaker 1>our sideline. And again, you watched what he did in

0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:01.000
<v Speaker 1>the past game, that's you know, on TV for everyone

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:03.160
<v Speaker 1>to see. But what's not probably focus in on as

0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:05.400
<v Speaker 1>much as is his effort in the run game and

0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:08.079
<v Speaker 1>how he's helped spring some of those long runs for us. Well,

0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:09.799
<v Speaker 1>you said last week you wanted to get your rushing

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:12.560
<v Speaker 1>offense going and well, for the first time in team history,

0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:16.840
<v Speaker 1>four different guys rush for touchdowns and your quarterback, Josh

0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:19.040
<v Speaker 1>Allen wasn't one of them. Three of your running backs

0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:21.040
<v Speaker 1>ran one in and then Isaiah McKenzie took in a

0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:24.239
<v Speaker 1>jet suite. Matt Breed to finished with two total touchdowns,

0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:26.799
<v Speaker 1>one on the ground, one through the air. What new

0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:30.160
<v Speaker 1>elements does breed to bring to your offense, Well, it's

0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:32.960
<v Speaker 1>that speed element. See what Zach is Broad and Devin

0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:35.080
<v Speaker 1>have brought to our offense, and then you add Breeda

0:03:35.160 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 1>with a speed element. It's really a good combination and

0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.200
<v Speaker 1>good to see him get back on the field be

0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:42.760
<v Speaker 1>active for the game. He's worked extremely hard in practice,

0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:45.520
<v Speaker 1>been inactive for the last handful of weeks. But good

0:03:45.520 --> 0:03:47.400
<v Speaker 1>to see him back out there and contribute not only

0:03:47.440 --> 0:03:50.040
<v Speaker 1>on offense but also special teams. Yeah. Now we have

0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:52.080
<v Speaker 1>to switch gears and go over the other side of

0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:55.000
<v Speaker 1>the ball and talk about the five takeaways your defense force.

0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Each one came from a different member of your secondary

0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Terror and Trey, Levi, Jordan all had interceptions and then

0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:04.480
<v Speaker 1>Micah had the force fumble and recovered it before the half.

0:04:05.280 --> 0:04:07.880
<v Speaker 1>I know they've been a part of two shutouts this season,

0:04:07.920 --> 0:04:11.200
<v Speaker 1>but is it the best game they've played all year? Well,

0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:12.760
<v Speaker 1>when you look at the back end and the way

0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:15.160
<v Speaker 1>they played, how they played, I mean, they definitely got

0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:17.359
<v Speaker 1>some takeaways through the air. The one on the ground

0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 1>with the funnel that Micael Force I thought was really

0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:21.240
<v Speaker 1>a game changer in the momentum of the game. We

0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:23.680
<v Speaker 1>went on to score, you know, seven after that, and

0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:25.400
<v Speaker 1>that was just all effort. You know, you love to

0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:28.599
<v Speaker 1>watch those plays and it's really become our DNA that

0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:31.400
<v Speaker 1>those effort plays. They're fun to watch. All Right, That's

0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:33.159
<v Speaker 1>enough of this for now, Coach. We're gonna catch up

0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:34.679
<v Speaker 1>with you later in the show to get your final

0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:38.640
<v Speaker 1>thoughts on your upcoming matchup with the Indianapolis Colts. The

0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:42.880
<v Speaker 1>game plan is presented by Energy Market, the official energy

0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:48.760
<v Speaker 1>supplier to the Buffalo Bills. Game preview is presented by

0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:54.680
<v Speaker 1>Independent elth You deserve the red shirt treatment, Maddie glab

0:04:54.720 --> 0:04:57.359
<v Speaker 1>here with this week's game preview. It's a rematch of

0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:00.159
<v Speaker 1>the first round of the twenty twenty playoffs. The lead

0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:02.800
<v Speaker 1>of the AFC East and the Buffalo Bills are facing

0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:05.960
<v Speaker 1>the Indianapolis Colts to our second in the AFC South.

0:05:06.120 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 1>The Colts seem to be heating up as they've won

0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:11.320
<v Speaker 1>their last four or five games, averaging thirty four points

0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:14.279
<v Speaker 1>per game in the last three. Buffalo must be stout

0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:16.559
<v Speaker 1>against the run on Sunday because they'll have to stop

0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:19.440
<v Speaker 1>Jonathan Taylor, who ties for the most rushing yards in

0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:22.400
<v Speaker 1>the NFL with nine hundred and thirty seven. Taylor is

0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:24.960
<v Speaker 1>averaging five point eight yards per carry, good for second

0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:28.560
<v Speaker 1>amongst running backs, and has nine rushing touchdowns. The Colts

0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:31.320
<v Speaker 1>offense is averaging twenty six point eight points per game,

0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:34.039
<v Speaker 1>which ranks eighth in the NFL. Oddly enough, the Bills

0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:35.880
<v Speaker 1>in the Colts are right next to each other and

0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:39.280
<v Speaker 1>turnover differential. Buffalo has the best in the NFL at

0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:42.840
<v Speaker 1>plus fourteen and Indianapolis is second at plus eleven. They

0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:45.800
<v Speaker 1>each have ten turnovers so far this season and are

0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 1>right next to each other in takeaways as well. The

0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:50.960
<v Speaker 1>Bills will try to build off their forty five point

0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:53.800
<v Speaker 1>victory last week, as they have bumped their average backup

0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:56.279
<v Speaker 1>to scoring thirty one points per game, which is second

0:05:56.360 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 1>best in the NFL. Josh Allen and Stefan Diggs are

0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:02.720
<v Speaker 1>hoping for similar performances to when they last played the Colts,

0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:06.200
<v Speaker 1>because Allen completed seventy four percent of his passes and

0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:09.320
<v Speaker 1>had three total touchdowns, while Diggs racked up one hundred

0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:12.760
<v Speaker 1>and twenty eight receiving yards and a touchdown. Buffalo's defense

0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:15.200
<v Speaker 1>is still on top of the NFL, as they're allowing

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:17.800
<v Speaker 1>the fewest points per game with fourteen and the fewest

0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:20.200
<v Speaker 1>yards per game with two hundred and seventy four. Their

0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:22.560
<v Speaker 1>twenty four takeaways are the most in the NFL and

0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:25.640
<v Speaker 1>the most in team history through nine games since nineteen

0:06:25.720 --> 0:06:28.159
<v Speaker 1>ninety three. The Bills lead the series against the Colts

0:06:28.200 --> 0:06:31.120
<v Speaker 1>with thirty eight wins and thirty two losses. That's this

0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:35.800
<v Speaker 1>week's game preview, Steve back to you. Thanks as always,

0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:38.280
<v Speaker 1>Maddie coach. The Colts are coming to town. They've won

0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:40.560
<v Speaker 1>four out of their last five games, and a big

0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:43.920
<v Speaker 1>part of their success has been because of Jonathan Taylor.

0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:46.240
<v Speaker 1>He's got one hundred plus scrimmage yards and a rushing

0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:50.640
<v Speaker 1>touchdown in seven straight games. He's the only the fourth

0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:53.880
<v Speaker 1>player in the Super Bowl ara to get that done.

0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Why is he such a special player, Well, you look

0:06:57.240 --> 0:07:00.280
<v Speaker 1>at his skill set. He's big, he's strong, power full,

0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:02.000
<v Speaker 1>it's got a good field for the game, and he's

0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:05.600
<v Speaker 1>extremely fast. You don't usually find all those qualities in

0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:07.919
<v Speaker 1>one running back, but he has them all and he

0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:10.880
<v Speaker 1>is a force to be reckoned with and probably, if

0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:12.880
<v Speaker 1>not the one of the top running backs in the

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.280
<v Speaker 1>league for a reason, and he's so young. It's not

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:18.120
<v Speaker 1>always you see a player like this come along, in

0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:20.880
<v Speaker 1>particular this early in his career. Now, you faced this

0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:22.960
<v Speaker 1>Colts team in the playoffs last year and they had

0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:26.040
<v Speaker 1>Philip Rivers under center. Now they've got a new quarterback

0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 1>at the helm and Carson Wentz. Now he battled injuries

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:31.400
<v Speaker 1>early on, but it looks like Frank Reich is starting

0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:33.560
<v Speaker 1>to push the right buttons and get the most out

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:37.640
<v Speaker 1>of him. How differently does this Colts team play with

0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:40.760
<v Speaker 1>Wentz at quarterbacker than they did last year with Philip

0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:42.680
<v Speaker 1>Rivers under center. You know, Frank's not going to be

0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:45.320
<v Speaker 1>without a good quality quarterback, and so it didn't surprise

0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:47.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't think anyone in this league when you saw

0:07:47.560 --> 0:07:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Carson end up in Indianapolis, so you know they knew

0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:52.600
<v Speaker 1>each other obviously from Philadelphia a little bit there. And

0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:54.960
<v Speaker 1>great coach on one side, great player on the other.

0:07:55.000 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 1>So again it would be a challenge for our defense

0:07:57.480 --> 0:07:59.360
<v Speaker 1>trying to balance that alone with the run game and

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:02.200
<v Speaker 1>or overall offense as well with the weapons that they have.

0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 1>One last thing that this will be your only home

0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:07.040
<v Speaker 1>game in the month of November, and that's when the

0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:11.560
<v Speaker 1>NFL celebrates the Salute to Service initiative. How special is

0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:15.960
<v Speaker 1>this Salute to Service recognition to you personally? Oh, it's huge,

0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:18.880
<v Speaker 1>you know. You look at what the military does for

0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:21.840
<v Speaker 1>our country and for our community locally here in Western
