3
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: on a Wednesday, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you. Before

4
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: we get into everything that we've got on tap for

5
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: you today, Steve M I have a problem. Okay, all right,

6
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: let's hear it. I go to the story yesterday. Okay,

7
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: I'm a little low on deodorant. Needs some new razors

8
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 1: for my shave, and I'm going in fully expecting the

9
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: cost of razors to be ridiculous because they are. Yeah,

10
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: I love how they have them under lock and key. Also,

11
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: I guess they're a highly stolen object in most stores.

12
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: So you got to crank them off of this corkscrew

13
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: like rack thing, you know, to have him come out

14
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: like a vending machine. Almost. You gotta do it in

15
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: the aisle there. You gotta hand crank the thing to

16
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 1: get it off the thing to buy it so that

17
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: you know, Okay, fine, you know I get it. Yet

18
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: you're trying to prevent against deff. That's totally fine. I

19
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: get my razors, four of them, thirteen ninety nine, you know,

20
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: just shoot me through the heart. That's number one, Like

21
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: just like four Little Cartridge thirteen ninety nine. Okay, that's

22
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: bad enough. I was expecting that to be bad because

23
00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: it's been for the longest time, like forever I could shave,

24
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: razors have been ridiculously priced. Okay, I go down to

25
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: the next dial. I gotta get my you know, deodorant figure.

26
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: And I know, you know, deodorants not cheap by any means.

27
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: Sometimes I try to find the two pack value pack.

28
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: You know, they're strapped together with plastic wrap that you

29
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: know you need a machette to cut through first of all,

30
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: just to separate the two of them. I get there,

31
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: there are no you know, two packs available. So now

32
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh man, now I'm gonna pay more for

33
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: just one. So I'm expecting, you know, all right, you know, Chris,

34
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 1: prepare yourself. This is not gonna be good. It's gonna

35
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: be like four ninety nine five something for one stick

36
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: of deodorant. It's like this, four or five bucks. So

37
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:52,519
Speaker 1: I get there six twenty nine, six twenty nine for

38
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 1: a stick of deodorant. I mean, I know we're dealing

39
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: we're all dealing with inflation here, supply chain and all.

40
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 1: But just to keep my pits from stick in six

41
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 1: twenty nine one stick as a deodorant as a co worker.

42
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: Let me just encourage you to pay the money. Yeah,

43
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: but I mean for six twenty nine, six I better

44
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 1: be good for like four days. You've one application. You

00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: can get them six twenty nine. Yeah, for a stick

46
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: they can buy. You know how much milk's gone up?

Speaker 1: They got the We got the egg shortage going on.

48
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: People are black markets selling eggs now, they're smuggling them

49
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: in from Mexico. I would think it's eat cheaper to

50
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: buy chickens than eggs. You watch, there's gonna be people

51
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 1: raising I watched it on the news this morning. I

52
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: watched the news this morning, the national news programs, you know,

53
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: you got those on in the morning, and they were

Speaker 1: talking about the egg shortage and how people are literally

55
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: smuggling eggs in over the border. I don't know if

56
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: that's happening from Canada to here, but it is from

57
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: Mexico to the Southwest. But here's the best part, they said,

58
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: So they come up with tips. You know, you know

59
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,240

62
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: this may sound ridiculous, but people are buying their own chickens, yeah,

63
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 1: and putting them out in a coop in the backyard.

64

65
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 1: you're right about that. You're running that's true. Though, it's

66
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: cheaper to buy a chicken. But I'm insteed it. I'm

67
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,280

106
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you right now, you think that deodoring

107
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,679
Speaker 1: companies are in cahoots whoever's making the razors? Oh dude,

110
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: You're deal Like, even if you've got one of those

111
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: five blade disposable jobs, what's the total weight of metal there?

112
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: Three ounces? Like, No, it's a Graham you're talking about

113
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: grant for the blade. Yeah, it's not even a Graham Howard?

114
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: What is what is the Is it so hard to

115
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: make chemically wedge those little blades into the plastic? Got

116
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: a machine? Once you got a machine made factories just

117
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: cranking these puppies out. They got us though. They make you,

118
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: they give you something for cheap, and they get you

119
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: addicted to it. They make it as good as it

120
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: can be, and then they they gounge you we're over

121
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: a barrel. Yeah, it's I mean, it's terrible. Those deodorant companies,

122
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, they're all that. Now here's the funny thing,

123
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: you know, I'm joking, like these deodoring companies are all

124
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: colluding together to jack up the price of deodorants sticks.

125
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: They on the news report I saw about the rise

126
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: in the cost of eggs, they said that consumer watchdog

127
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: group is accusing the largest I don't even know what

128
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 1: you would call egg producers in the country of collusion

129
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: and raising the prices because I think some of these

130
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 1: companies say, well, hey, people already know inflation is bad.

131
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: If we just boost it up a little bit more

132
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: in line our pockets with better profits, nobody's gonna notice

133
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: because they're expecting prices to go up because of how

134
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 1: bad inflation is. And I think some people wouldn't shock me.

135
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 1: If some people are doing that, wouldn't shock me. I

136
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 1: don't know anything, but that's what they said on the

137
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 1: news today. Human beings are awful. Every once in a while,

138
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: we get we get our faith in human beings right

139
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: up there with Eli Apple, you know, right right, We

140
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: get we get our faith restored in humanity, and then

141
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,959
Speaker 1: something else comes along and just like, no, not so much. Yeah,

142
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: like everybody's bucks for four razor blades and it's like, no,

143
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: not so much. Yeah, it was short lived. I felt

144
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 1: good about humanity, you know, in the wake of the

145
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: Damar Hamlin cardiac event. That's not what you should have

146
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: to happen to get people to actually be kind and

147
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,719
Speaker 1: you know, all of that stuff. It shouldn't take an

148
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: event like that. It's like Thurman's wife said the other

149
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: the other week, I heard her say, you know, she

150
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 1: was She was on a news station and Patty was saying, well, yeah,

151
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: the whole the whole mantra after the horrible Jefferson Avenue

152
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,079
Speaker 1: shooting was choose love, She goes, I'd like to get

153
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: to a point where we're not choosing love. Everybody just loves,

154
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: you know what I mean totally. I'd also love the

155
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 1: deodoring companies to lower the price of sticks of deodorant.

156
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 1: That would be nice too, But you know, far be

157
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 1: it from to know how big time business works in

158
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 1: any event. Enough about that, I just had to get

159
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: that off my chair. I could not believe it. We

160
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: are but pawns in the game of life. Brownie, Well,

161
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 1: I mean I was self aware enough to know that,

162
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 1: but my god, it's just it's out of control. It's

163
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,719
Speaker 1: out of control. I can't I can't deal so with that.

164
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: I will move on, but I had to get that

165
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,959
Speaker 1: off my chest. We know that. Yesterday Bill's GM Brandon

166
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: Bean address the media with his season wrap up press conference.

167
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: In today's show, we are going to be passing along

168
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: some of here's his more notable comments on a question

169
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 1: and answer session that lasted almost an hour. I'll tell

170
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: you one thing, the media can never can never question

171
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: the amount of time that Brandon Bean gives them, because

172
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: I can't remember a GM season wrap up press conference

173
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 1: that went over fifty minutes. I mean, he really answered

174
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: every question they posed to him. I remember too, we

175
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: were sitting we were in there, and Brandon was great,

176
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,079
Speaker 1: he's really patient and all that. But we're sitting there.

177
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: We've been in there, like forty minute. Any of these

178
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: things take ten minutes, fifteen minutes, end of season, of season,

179
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 1: sometimes a half and half an hour. We're in there

180
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: forty minutes and he answers a question and six guys

181
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: jump in with the next question, they'll talk over you

182
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 1: and it's like we're I mean, they were gaining speed

183
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: forty minutes into that thing. It was unbelievable. I was like, God,

184
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: lead dudes, I don't even want to know that much. Well, right,

185
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: but there were a lot of questions to be answered.

186
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: Some of the more notable ones we will address with

187
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: you in our number two of the show. That's when

188
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: we'll be playing some of his more notable comments. And

189
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: there were some interesting ones, and it's also a part

190
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 1: of what we're asking you today. If you saw it

191
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: and you digested most of it, we're asking you today,

192
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 1: what do you expect this off season based on GM

193
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 1: Brandon Bean's comments on Tuesday. So you can let us

194
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: know at eight oh three five fifty one eighty eight

195
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 1: five fifty two, five fifty the number to get on board,

196
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 1: or you can hit us up on the tweet sheet

197
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: at One Bill's Live, Steve. We have to go around

198
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: the NFL, which is presented by Kalida Health, the official

199
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 1: healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills, and there is news

200
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 1: on the coaching front and it does impact the Bills. Okay,

201
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: so we begin with the report from NFL Networks Mike Garifolo,

202
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 1: who is reporting that the Chargers have requested permission to

203
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,319
Speaker 1: interview Bills quarterbacks coach Joe Brady for their offensive coordinator position.

204
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: Brady apparently has multiple requests from multiple teams. We've heard

205
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: the Jets are interested, although I don't know if the

206
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 1: Bills granted a division rival permission. We'll have to see,

207
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,839
Speaker 1: and we have to find out if Joe Brady's willing

208
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: to move again. You would think he would for a

209
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 1: promotion to get back in a coordinator's seat, which is

210
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 1: the role he previously held with the Carolina Panthers. Meanwhile,

211
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting the Giant's backup quarterback Davis Webb,

212
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: formerly a third string quarterback here in Buffalo, who was

213
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: offered Buffalo's quarterback coaching job last offseason, has expressed interest

214
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 1: in beginning his transition from a player to a coach,

215
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: and after getting his first NFL start this past season,

216
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 1: Webb will consider making the jump to coaching for the

217
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 1: right opportunity. So I think, Steve, and this is just

218
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: me on a hunch that if Joe Brady does in

219
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: fact take an offensive coordinator position elsewhere, I could see

220
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:54,680
Speaker 1: Davis Webb being one of the top choices or top

221
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 1: interview ease that the Bills would like to interview if

222
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: Joe Brady take an offensive coordinator post somewhere. Couldn't you

223
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: see that happening? Makes some sense because they switch from

224
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: the Giants offense, which is the offense the Giants got

225
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 1: from Buffalo, and wouldn't have to switch right so it

226
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: would be smooth transition, would be a seamless transition not

227
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: only for Webb but for the offensive staff here in

228
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: Buffalo if that was to take place right. So we'll

229
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 1: just have to wait and see what transpires there. And

230
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: obviously the first shoe would have to drop before the

231
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: second shoe can even be considered. But that's kind of

232
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: something to keep an eye on there. So Brady of

233
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: interest to the Chargers for their offensive coordinator position. Jets

234
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: have apparently also expressed some interest. I don't know if

235
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: a formal request has been made by the Jets. I

236
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 1: haven't seen that anywhere. And now Davis Webb is considering

237
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: a coaching career after spending years in the league as

238
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: a backup quarterback. The Panthers are conducting second interviews for

239
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: their vacant head coaching job finalists appear to be interim

240
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 1: head coach Steve Wilkes, Frank Reich, former Colts head coach,

241
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: and Cowboys offensive coordinator Kelln Moore. So they're conducting a

242
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: second round of interviews down there. Frank Reich is one

243
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: that's going to get one. I believe Steve Wilkes already

244
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 1: had his, and Kellen Moore was there yesterday, so we'll

245
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 1: have to see what comes of that. The word on

246
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: the street down in Carolina is that Panther's owner, Dave

247
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: Tepper is interested in getting a veteran head coach in

248
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: that chair after a younger, first time head coach in

249
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: Matt Rule did not work out in Carolina, So we'll

250
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: see what they ultimately decide upon there. That means Reich

251
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 1: and Steve Wilkes would have a head leg up in

252
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: the three that we mentioned, because Kellen Moore has not

253
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: done that. Those other two guys have been. Steve Wilkes

254
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: was an interim head coach for a minute, and of

255
00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 1: course Frank was a head coach of the Colts. So yeah,

256
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: that seems to disqualify one of their top candidates out

257
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: of the gate. The Colts, meanwhile, interviewed interim head coach

258
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday a second time for their vacant head coaching position.

259
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: They plan to conduct a second round of interviews with

260
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: Are you ready for this? Steve A reported seven candidates,

261
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: so I think they interviewed twelve in the first round.

262
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 1: They're now going to take seven to those twelve and

263
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: interview them a second time. Broncos defensive coordinator edgaro Everro

264
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 1: is one of those candidates. He's supposed to be there

265
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: for his second interview today or tomorrow. So it doesn't

266
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: sound like the Colts are going to be landing on

267
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 1: a winner for that job for some time. If they're

268
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: going to plow their way through a second round of

269
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: interviews with seven candidates, my gosh. I mean, I respect

270
00:16:55,280 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: anybody for being thorough, but that's almost exhaustive, Yeah, because

271
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: you know how long those interviews take. You're talking three

272
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: to four hours. And I read today and I'm sorry,

273
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 1: I can't remember who is making this conjecture, but they

274
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 1: His reporter's conjecture was that this is all window dressing,

275
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 1: that that Jim Erse is gonna hire Jeff Saturday again. Well,

276
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 1: apparently yes, he is the guy that Ers wants, but

277
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 1: some people, some higher ups in the building apparently are

278
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 1: convincing him to consider other candidates, and he is at

279
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 1: least entertaining that. And if there's going to be a

280
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 1: second round of interviews with seven people, at least you

281
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: have to assume he's listening to those other people that

282
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: are saying, hey, let's give some thought to you know,

283
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: candidate B, Candidate D, Candidate F, and candidate G. So

284
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 1: well that I don't think that's ending anytime soon unless

285
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,360
Speaker 1: Ers just tells everybody to shut up and says I'm

286
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 1: hiring Jeff Saturday. That's the only reason it comes to

287
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: a rapid conclusion, because seven interview. I mean, you're talking

288
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: like another here. I know, I've never been a coach,

289
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: so I've never been put in this position. I've heard

290
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 1: about it, and we've talked about it here where you know,

291
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 1: I think there's some guys who disqualify themselves from certain

292
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 1: jobs saying hey, it's not for me. I think there's

293
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: got to be a lot of that going around with

294
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 1: this Indianapolis job. Yeah. I think they're they're casting a

295
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 1: wide net knowing that some of these guys are gonna

296
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 1: pull out, pull out and disqualify themselves. I don't know. Maybe,

297
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 1: but from the outside looking in, I don't know if

298
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: I want that job. Well, right, the owner has you know, meddled,

299
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 1: you have no quarterback. You've got no quarterback, and you've

300
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 1: got an owner that medals and makes decisions football decisions

301
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,199
Speaker 1: based on what he sees from the stands, and that

302
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 1: is not any place most of the quality coaches want

303
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: to be. So I think it's interesting. It's gonna be

304
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: really interesting. There's only five openings this year. Usually there's

305
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 1: like eight, maybe twenty five percent of the league is up,

306
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 1: and nobody seems in a hurry to hire somebody. I

307
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,479
Speaker 1: think kind of curious. I think it has been proven

308
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 1: over the last handful of years at least that if

309
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: you get the right guy, the extra month and a

310
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 1: half doesn't mean that much because most of them come

311
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: from organizations within the league who have already done all

312
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: the work that you would have been doing in your place,

313
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 1: so they can bring it with them at least this

314
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 1: is what we like. For instance, Brian Daboll comes over

315
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 1: to the Giants and said, well, this is what we

316
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 1: thought over in Buffalo, particularly with Joe Shane, and they're

317
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: doing the same thing. This is what we think these

318
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 1: guys are right in the draft or the free agency

319
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 1: or whatever. That's easy to catch up on. I think

320
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 1: when you got you know, pro personnel guys you've been

321
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 1: playing and coaching against for all your whole career, it

322
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 1: doesn't really matter what the logo on the side of

323
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,119
Speaker 1: your helmet is. Your opinions the same, you know, and

324
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 1: your evaluation is going to be the same. So that's

325
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: not time. That's really you know, insurmountable to replace. You

326
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: got all that information already. Everybody does, so it's not

327
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: like you're losing time to the rest of the league

328
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 1: by not being named the head coach for that organization.

329
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 1: I just think a lot of people were under the

330
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,880
Speaker 1: assumption that Sean Payton was going to slide right into

331
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: a job immediately, But it seems like knowing his contractual

332
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 1: rights are still tied to the Saints and that it's

333
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: probably going to take a first round pick in compensation

334
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: to hire him, there's some there's some obstacles at that

335
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: there's some obstacles, and the speculation is now that the

336
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,679
Speaker 1: longer that goes, the more likely that Sean Payton's going

337
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: to sit out another year and you know, keep doing

338
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 1: analysis on Fox and after this year the contractual rights

339
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 1: to the Saints runs out in twenty twenty four. You

340
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 1: could get him as a head coach for nothing. There's

341
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:09,959
Speaker 1: no there's three obstacles to Sean Payton. To me, One

342
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 1: is the compensation you got to give up to hire him,

343
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 1: the draft pick, probably a first rounder. Two is the money.

344
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,360
Speaker 1: It's a big number for any head coach, and he's

345
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 1: asking for what does he's in fifteen to twenty that's

346
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: like three or four times what most guys are getting

347
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,440
Speaker 1: gonna get at least a first time guy anyway, right.

348
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: And the third one is it has been reported that

349
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 1: he doesn't want to have to go to the general

350
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 1: manager's office with his hat in his hand asking for

351
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: He wants control. He wants to say, listen, if you

352
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: want to if you're gonna be paying me this much

353
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,119
Speaker 1: money and you want me to come to your town

354
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 1: and transform your franchise, you're giving me the final voice

355
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 1: and a lot of things that other head coaches don't get.

356
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: And some owners are smart enough to say, I don't know,

357
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. So those are the three obstacles. It's

358
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: the money, It's the raft pick that you got to

359
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: give up to sign him, and the power that he

360
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 1: wants to have as a head coach that perhaps he

361
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 1: never had in New Orleans. So it's not just a

362
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: like you think you got like Jerry Jones gonna give

363
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 1: him that. No, so there you haven't. And you know,

364
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 1: guys like and then other franchises. Maybe it's the money,

365
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 1: maybe it's the draft pick, but there's those are the

366
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 1: three things that are keeping him from like being just

367
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 1: rubber stamped to a job. Speaking of the Saints, co

368
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:35,240
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator Chris Richard in New Orleans is reportedly interviewing

369
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 1: for the Dolphins vacant defensive coordinator post Josh Barrior fired

370
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: last week. Seahawks associate head coach Sean Desai and former

371
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: Broncos head coach Vic Fangio are also a schedule to

372
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: interview for that job in Miami. Richard used to coach

373
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: in Seattle. He was an assistant during the Legion of

374
00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: Boom days, and then I think he rose to the

375
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: position and a defensive coordinator there after Dan Quinn left

376
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 1: and since then has moved on to other spots, most

377
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 1: recently the Saints. UM, I don't know if you're the Bills,

378
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: I don't think you want Vic Fangio in your division

379
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,919
Speaker 1: as a defensive coordinator. Yeah right, well of course not. Yeah,

380
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: but you don't get to pick that though. Well you don't.

381
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's a you're pulling for one of those

382
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 1: other guys. I think I'll take this job. I'll tell

383
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 1: you this, if you're Vic Fangio, there's only one thing

384
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: you're worried about when you go to take the Miami job,

385
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: and that's Josh Allen. Yeah, you're I mean, I've seen

386
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 1: depending on whether the Jets get a quarterback this office

387
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty, he saw what Josh Allen did to

388
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 1: his Denver Bronco defense when he was the head coach

389
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 1: for him with that finished forty five seventeen or something.

390
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: He absolutely chewed him up and spit him down the drain.

391
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 1: And he's one of the defensive guys, you're. Robert Slid

392
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 1: did it when he was a San Francisco defensive coordinator

393
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. And Fanjoe is the same way you

394
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 1: saw fanjo had. He was like he was just like

395
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 1: sagging on the sideline with his play sheet. It was like,

396
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: you know, and it wasn't raining, but it looked like

397
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 1: it was raining on him, right, So he's just standing there,

398
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: Charlie Brown, Oh my gosh. So it was just so hopeless.

399
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 1: He was like, He's like, what do you do? You

400
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: call the perfect defense and it turns into a nineteen

401
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: yard touchdown run. So he knows what it is to

402
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: face the guest guy and this team. So but then

403
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 1: a two, you got Mac Jones and whoever the and

404
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 1: you don't even know what the Jets are gonna do yet, right, Yeah,

405
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 1: it'll be interesting. So the coaching cares l continues to spin,

406
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: almost more so at the coordinator, almost as much at

407
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 1: the coordinator position at as the head coaching position, because

408
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 1: there are some coordinator jobs that are available out there,

409
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 1: and some guys are going to be making the rounds

410
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 1: here over the next week or so. There was an

411
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: interesting post that I caught on social media, Steve from

412
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:08,919
Speaker 1: a Colts fan who had a word of advice for

413
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: Bills fans now jaded Bills fans that are still upset

414
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 1: about last Sunday's loss may not be ready to take

415
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,880
Speaker 1: this advice, but I'm going to read it anyway because

416
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 1: I think it. I think it creates a very good

417
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: perspective for Bills fans going forward. So this is a

418
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: Colts fan. His name is Paul Porter, and this is

419
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 1: what he writes to Bills fans. Brighter days are coming.

420
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: I know that feels empty right now, but I've been

421
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,159
Speaker 1: in your place. I've been a Colts fan all my

422
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 1: life and endured the early Manning years, the almost their years,

423
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: the if not now then when years, our day eventually came,

424
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 1: and in that moment, the way it was worth it.

425
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 1: Your moment, however, came this year in a different form.

426
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 1: You showed the world your soul and we follow in

427
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:04,679
Speaker 1: lockstep without hesitation. You made us believe in something bigger.

428
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: And as someone who has put his faith in a

429
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 1: team that doesn't seem interested in winning, you gave me

430
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,439
Speaker 1: a reason to keep loving football. I'm an adopted Bills

431
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,680
Speaker 1: fan and hope you'll have me back as a member

432
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 1: of the mafia, despite my dual citizenship as a Colts fan.

433
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 1: That's who you are, the real champions. You just left

434
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 1: the season with a different trophy. That trophy was in

435
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,639
Speaker 1: a suite watching the game last Sunday and flashing a

436
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: hard sign. I hope you're as proud of this team

437
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 1: as the rest of the world is. How about that.

438
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: That's nice. What a nice job by Paul Porter. Colts

439
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: fan wonder what he pays for razor blades? Dear here, Well,

440
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: let's see, looking at his avatar, he's a bald guy,

441
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: so he probably uses razors more than I do. So

442
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 1: my bet would my bet would be his costs are

443
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 1: higher than mine. Maybe his world is, he's in a

444
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 1: different spot in life. I was really taken with the

445
00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:01,159
Speaker 1: early Manning years comment though, because let's not forget the

446
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 1: Colts went thirteen and three a few times. Was eight

447
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 1: years into his career, was it not? Oh that he

448
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 1: won a super Bowl? Yes, eight ninety eight draft first

449
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 1: pick one in six season? Oh, seven super Bowl. I

450
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: want to save if I had my years right, eight seasons.

451
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: It took him to get there, and he was good

452
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: in season two. Yeah, so it took him a while.

453
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 1: But I thought that was a good perspective, and the

454
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 1: fact that it was coming from a fan of another team,

455
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,400
Speaker 1: I think gives it even more credence. Yeah. Yeah, here's

456
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: we heard that and we also obviously felt it here,

457
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 1: you know, after the Monday Night to more Hamlin injury,

458
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 1: we all felt it and saw it, and it's you know,

459
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: it's nice as somebody from another another. It's always gratifying

460
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: when a person from another fan base acknowledges it and

461
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 1: verbalizes it and articulates it. It does give you some

462
00:27:55,840 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 1: it does help heal. I think I think for a minute,

463
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 1: maybe the Bills fans more so than any of the

464
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: fan base, for those two or three days after that

465
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 1: Monday night in Cincinnati, we really didn't care, right, we

466
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,400
Speaker 1: really care if they won the game or not. There

467
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: was something way more important and we willingly let ourselves

468
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: think like that, and the rest of the world went

469
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:32,680
Speaker 1: along with us. So I having said that, it's nice

470
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 1: to have somebody acknowledge that and say if they got

471
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 1: something out of it, So, yeah, that's awesome. That's awesome.

472
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: And this season will be remembered for that incident, even

473
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 1: as much as it hurts to you know, lay an

474
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 1: egg in the final game of the season at home,

475
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 1: in a snowstorm and all that against a really good

476
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: football team. That's not what we'll remember. I don't think.

477
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: I think we will remember what happened in Cincinnati, and

478
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 1: and you know what, we're that's I think that's the

479
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: way it should be actually, and now, I mean it's

480
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 1: easy enough to say that now, but the you know,

481
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 1: in a Super Bowl victory, Okay, yeah, that that would

482
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 1: have been better. But now I'm okay with it, um,

483
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 1: and I'll get more okay with it as the days

484
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,240
Speaker 1: and months pass. Yeah, we have to take a break

485
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 1: here because when we come back, our colleague Bills reporter

486

00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,640

497
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: presented by Energy Mark, the official energy supplier to the

498
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. And uh, this is like the This is

499
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: like the Rose Bowl of the Maddies, you know what

500
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 1: I mean. We're looking back a Yeah, we're we're putting

501
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 1: a putting a bow on the season. I know we're

502
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: all doing it way earlier than we wanted to, and

503
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 1: I know we're all still feeling a little down and

504
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: a little bummed. But I'm here to hopefully try to

505
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: make you feel a little bit better. Yeah, well, man,

506
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 1: we appreciate it because somebody's got to brand razor blades. Yeah,

507
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,719
Speaker 1: we're feeling like you know, I'm hurting from inflation. That's right,

508
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 1: Get us started here. What's the first one. You're gonna

509
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: start off with a big one? Yeah, we're gonna go

510
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 1: best game first, best best game first. And it had

511
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: to be from one of the games in the beginning

512
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: beginning of the season. And I think it had to

513
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: be this because that's when we really saw this team

514
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 1: peak and Brandon Bean talked about it in the press

515
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 1: conference yesterday, said we need to be playing our best

516
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: football at the end of the season, and we weren't.

517
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: We We came out of the game playing some really

518
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: good football, but we didn't end the season how we

519
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 1: began it. So I looked to the beginning of the season,

520
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: and I looked to the Week six win over the

521
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs, where the Bills beat the Chiefs twenty

522
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 1: four to twenty. It wasn't your thirty point scoring output

523
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,200
Speaker 1: that the Bills had in a few games at the

524
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: end of the season. They averaged twenty eight points per

525
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: game in the regular season. But I'm saying this is

526
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 1: my favorite game because it's against a team who's going

527
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 1: to be in the AFC Championship Game this weekend. This

528
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,959
Speaker 1: is a team who they've they've lost too, but this

529
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 1: is also a team that they have beat in the

530
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: regular season. You want to beat this team in the postseason,

531
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: but you also want to beat them in the regular season.

532
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:11,239
Speaker 1: And it was really good to see them get this

533
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 1: win in Week six, maybe kind of showing what was

534
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: what was in in preparation what could happen later in

535
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 1: the season. We're not playing the Chiefs unfortunately this year.

536
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: But when you look at how the offense kind of

537
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 1: rolled in this game, how the defense helped out the offense,

538
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 1: it seemed like a win where both sides of the

539
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 1: football were helping each other out. Yeah, And it was

540
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 1: nice because you think back about that game how it ended.

541
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: The defense closed it out with an interception by Vaughn.

542
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 1: By Vaughn and Matt Milano on the pass rush, forcing

543
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: Mahomes to pump at once, give tarr And a chance

544
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: to step in front get the interceptions and ended the game.

545
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 1: Von Miller had two sacks in that game. Done, yes,

546
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 1: exactly how it should be done, and it was so

547
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 1: nice to see this. In Week six, I mean, Josh

548
00:32:56,640 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 1: Allen had over three hundred passing yards, three touchdowns Defon

549
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: Diggs one forty eight touchdown. Your next wide receiver was

550
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: Gabe Davis. He also had a touchdown. Dawson Knox had

551
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Devin Singletary was the leading rusher. It's just

552
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 1: how it should look for this team. So that's why

553
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: it's my favorite, most most replicated the blueprint that yeah,

554
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott and Brandon Being had in mind for what

555
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 1: this team could do against some of the best teams

556
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: in the conference, and they lived up to it and

557
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: went into the buy that week five and one five

558
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 1: feeling good coming home from kans and the loss was

559
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 1: the Miami like heat game where they should have should

560
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 1: have been six. Bent him up like all right, so

561
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: we go from best game to best play, the best play.

562
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: I'm sure this is a lot of our best plays

563
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 1: in our mind. Niheim Hines kick return touchdown against the

564
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: Patriots the first one that he had that really just

565
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 1: set the scene for that entire game, coming off of

566
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 1: that Cincinnati Bengals game that never finished because of Damar Hamlin.

567
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: And this is when we were getting the good news

568
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: about Damar Hamlin and it was all positivity. But I

569
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 1: think as this team took the field for the first

570
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 1: play that game, there was a lot of angst and

571
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 1: anxiety I think in that stadium, or at least that's

572
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,359
Speaker 1: kind of what I was feeling as to, Okay, how

573
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: is this game going to go down? This team has

574
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 1: been through it this week. Are they going to be

575
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: ready to go? Are the Patriots going to get the

576
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 1: best of the Bills. I'm sure Bill Belichick was licking

577
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: his chops at playing a Bills team who hadn't practiced

578
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,919
Speaker 1: in the entirety that they normally do during the week,

579
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 1: and here comes Nihiem Hines to return it for a

580
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,800
Speaker 1: touchdown on the first play of the game to open

581
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 1: the game up. It was a moment that many of

582
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: us will remember for the rest of our lives. There

583
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: was so much joy, so much happiness in that stadium

584
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 1: at that point, and I think it was poetic and

585
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 1: just a collective exhale after that happened. Yeah, and you know,

586
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,400
Speaker 1: they needed to win that game to lock down the

587
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 1: number two seed in the AFC playoffs, so there was

588
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: something firmly on the line for them. There was also

589
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: for the pay Patriots, who were in a win and

590
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 1: in scenario, right. So yeah, I mean there was a

591
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,479
Speaker 1: lot of trepidation and anxiety going into that game because

592
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 1: you really didn't know what kind of team was going

593
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: to show up for Buffalo on the heels of the

594
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 1: Hamlin incidents. So yeah, when that when that happened, it

595
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,319
Speaker 1: was almost like a party. Yeah. Well yeah, but I

596
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,840
Speaker 1: gotta say, Maddie, it's the you could. I can honestly

597
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 1: say because I was looking around, like after the play,

598
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,839
Speaker 1: in the crowd, you had as many people crying as

599
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 1: you had charge. I've never seen that before at a

600
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,320
Speaker 1: football game. It was unbelievable. Half of them were jumping

601
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,359
Speaker 1: up and down and screaming. The other half was were

602
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:38,399
Speaker 1: openly weeping over the over that moment. It was I've

603
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: never had a play blow I said, looked at each

604
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 1: other and both had tears in our eyes. I couldn't

605
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 1: believe it. It absolutely blew my mind when he was

606
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:51,760
Speaker 1: running in. Um. Yeah, one of the all time great moments,

607
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 1: and I would say one of the all time great

608
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: moments in franchise history for sure, one of the most memorable, touching,

609
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,720
Speaker 1: important moment. You know, not for the wins and losses,

610
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 1: but man Oman for the crowd and for the fans

611
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 1: and for the relationship because it was incredible. Wow. Yeah.

612
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 1: Up next is offensive MVP. Maddie. Oh, it's got to

613
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: be Josh Allen. He was such a big part of

614
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 1: the offense this season. The Bills won a lot of

615
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 1: games because of Josh Allen. When it wasn't going well

616
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 1: for whatever side of the football, Josh Allen would find

617
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: another level, find another mode to get into. And the

618
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,959
Speaker 1: fact that he wasn't feeling himself until a couple weeks

619
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: ago mechanically he told us when he spoke to us

620
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 1: the final time for this season, I think says a

621
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: lot about the type of player and competitor that he is.

622
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:43,280
Speaker 1: Just dealing with that elbow injury through a big part

623
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,760
Speaker 1: of the season. I mean he finishes the regular season

624
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 1: with forty two total touchdowns, Number two in the NFL.

625
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 1: He's the first player in NFL history to have three

626
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,839
Speaker 1: seasons with at least thirty passing touchdowns and six rushing touchdowns.

627
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,920
Speaker 1: And he also has the most offensive touchdowns at a

628
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,359
Speaker 1: quarterback's first five years in the NFL. He passed Hall

629
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 1: of Famer Dan Marino this season. This guy is unlike

630
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: so many players in the NFL. He has one a

631
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: few who can do what he can do, and he's

632
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 1: the reason why the Bills won fourteen total games this season. Yeah,

633
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. And I think this next one

634
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 1: the most valuable defensive player. At the beginning of year,

635
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 1: he might have been surprised at this. Yep, Matt Milano.

636
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 1: I think he is our defensive MVP this season. You know,

637
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 1: you could have picked Jordan Poyer two. There were there

638
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 1: were a couple of defensive players who really helped this defense.

639
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 1: But I'm going Matt Milano because of the things that

640
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 1: he was able to do within the defense that the

641
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 1: Bills run. He is so important. He does so many

642
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 1: things that are outside of the box of what a

643
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:48,720
Speaker 1: linebacker is. He led the team in tackles for loss

644
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 1: and solo tackles. Can't believe he wasn't named to the

645
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,319
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl, So glad he got some recognition this year

646
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 1: for being named an All Pro. He is one of

647
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:01,319
Speaker 1: the reasons why the defense was able to do what

648
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 1: they did this season, ranking high in a few statistical categories.

649
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 1: What he can do up front, what he can do

650
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: dropping into coverage. He can just help out that entire

651
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 1: defense from front end to back end. And he's so

652
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,240
Speaker 1: important he I mean, he had a lot of good games.

653
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 1: The one that sticks out for me the most is

654
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: the Baltimore game. So they're down in that game ten

655
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 1: points in a halftime, it's twenty to ten and they're

656
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:29,959
Speaker 1: threatening to score again and he just with some help

657
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,320
Speaker 1: from a blocker that kind of took out two guys.

658
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 1: They're on the goal line and Milano just dropped it

659
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,319
Speaker 1: for like a three yard loss on the carry. They

660
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:41,280
Speaker 1: didn't get in there. I think they had to settle

661
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 1: for a field goal, you know, when the Bills end

662
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: up winning by a field goal. And the most impressive

663
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 1: thing about that game in Week four, so you know,

664
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:51,880
Speaker 1: you always got to worry about Lamar Jackson as a

665
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 1: runner and he in Tremaine with the open field tackles

666
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:58,919
Speaker 1: they had on Lamar. In that game, Lamar's longest run

667
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 1: was eighteen yards. Wow, if you're playing against Lamar Jackson

668
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 1: his longest run when he has like fifteen carries eighteen yards,

669
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,400
Speaker 1: you're doing pretty dark company. Yeah, it really is. And

670
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,759
Speaker 1: and it wasn't an easy call to him. Milano had

671
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 1: the phenomenal year and he kind of was who we

672
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:18,839
Speaker 1: knew he was. Jordan Poyer, I think heroic would be

673
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 1: more apt for his his season hyper extending his elbow,

674
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 1: breaking a couple of ribs taking a bus trip, you know,

675
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:29,439
Speaker 1: having to drive to Kansas City. Yeah, really, and wore this,

676
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 1: you know, huge brace on his arm the entire season,

677
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 1: and then had a messed up knee and yeah, and

678
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 1: then dealing with a knee injury. Still pay just one

679
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:41,919
Speaker 1: thing after another, very difficult season for Jordan Poyer. But

680
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 1: really they were thirteen and one in games he started. Yeah,

681
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,840
Speaker 1: and they when he wasn't in there early in the season,

682
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 1: they struggled. Yeah, they struggled all right. So from defensive

683
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 1: MVP to most Improved Player, most improved player, it's a

684
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 1: guy who knows Mount Malana really well Tremaine Edmonds. He

685
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 1: kicked it into another gear this season, making a big

686
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 1: case for why the Bills should fight hard to keep

687
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 1: him on the roster next season. He led the team

688
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:12,359
Speaker 1: in total tackles with one hundred and two, and coaches acknowledge,

689
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 1: from Sean McDermott to Leslie Frasier, they acknowledge that he

690
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 1: had his best season yet. Leslie Frasier praised him for

691
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 1: the leadership role that he took on this season, not

692
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:26,279
Speaker 1: being afraid to speak up when it was difficult to do.

693
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 1: They could lean on him, they could allow him to lead.

694
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 1: Trying to find another person in the draft or in

695
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: free agency that has his measurables, his athleticism and his age,

696
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: you cannot do that. He is one of one for

697
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:49,319
Speaker 1: those reasons, and for that reason they should try as

698
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: hard as they can to get him back on this roster. Now.

699
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: I know he deserves a lot of money. Don't know

700
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 1: if that's going to be possible for the Bills to do,

701
00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:01,120
Speaker 1: but he helped this team out big time this season

702
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: and really came into his own Yeah. I mean Coach

703
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 1: McDermott the other day he said he thought it was

704
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 1: Tremaine's best season of his career, you know. And I

705
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:12,880
Speaker 1: think the other thing that McDermott mentioned too was, you know,

706
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 1: here was a guy that also, much like Josh, took

707
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 1: another step forward in terms of the leadership on the

708
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,360
Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball. You know. So this is

709
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,439
Speaker 1: a guy that when he got here as a twenty

710
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,920
Speaker 1: year old kid, quiet like you'd be lucky to get

711
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 1: three words out of him, just very humble, quiet reserved guy.

712
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 1: Now the leader that he is. Yeah, you would hate

713
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: to lose that going forward. We'll just see there. They're

714
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,319
Speaker 1: gonna have to get really creative with the cat right.

715
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 1: Who else we got left here? Comeback stories, come back stories.

716
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:47,839
Speaker 1: It's obvious Jamar hamlin um. When asked about the wear

717
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 1: and tear of the season that the Bills went through,

718
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 1: Josh Allen said, getting Damar hamlin back was a silver

719
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: lining in it all, and having Tamar back healthy and

720
00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 1: doing good is the most important thing. I think when

721
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 1: you look at at what the team went through this

722
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 1: season and how it ended to get him out of

723
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: the hospital as quickly as he did, to get him

724
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 1: off the oxygen that he was on as quickly as

725
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 1: that happened, so many strides that he's made in his

726
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:17,360
Speaker 1: recovery process. I know there's still ways to go, but

727
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:20,359
Speaker 1: it's such an inspiring story. I can't wait to see

728
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 1: what's in store for him, and it's been so good

729
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 1: to see him around the facility the last week. I

730
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:29,399
Speaker 1: think my favorite line was Brandon being talking about Tamar's charity, saying, well,

731
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 1: he's not gonna be toys at Christmas. It's gonna be

732
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 1: handing out cars. They raised eight over eight million dollars.

733
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 1: I think it's up to nine now, Absolutely amazing. All right, quickly,

734
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:44,799
Speaker 1: let's stick these two together. Most Promise and your Trench Warrior. Yeah,

735
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:47,880
Speaker 1: most promise. It's tough because I think the rookies on

736
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:50,640
Speaker 1: this roster do show a lot of promise for what's

737
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 1: to come next season based on how they ended this season.

738
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna say kier elam down the stretch. What

739
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 1: he did in the playoffs against Miami, I think that

740
00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 1: interception almost had two. The way he was able to

741
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 1: guard Tyreek Hill on some of those plays, I think

742
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 1: says a lot about what he could be for this team.

743
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 1: Dane Jackson was great on that opposite corner roll of

744
00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 1: Turdavious White as well and holding it down for most

745
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: of the season when Trey White was not in the

746
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: starting lineup. But you draft Kayer Elam in the first round,

747
00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: this is a first rounder. You want to see your

748
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 1: first rounder on the field because that's the type of

749
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,200
Speaker 1: draft capitol that they spent on him. And it was

750
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:28,440
Speaker 1: nice to see him start to show some of that

751
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: aggressiveness in a good way against the team like the Dolphins,

752
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 1: against Tyreek Hill, against an amazing receiver like Tyreek Hill.

753
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,560
Speaker 1: So I think there's some promise for him for what's

754
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 1: to come this next season. And then Trench Warrior de

755
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 1: Quan Jones. It was tough this year for the defensive

756
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,799
Speaker 1: line with the injuries that they had, and I think

757
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 1: the glue guy of it all was de Quan Jones.

758
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 1: He was in the lineup the most and I think

759
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 1: we saw why he was so important in this last game.

760
00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,239
Speaker 1: He held it together for the entire group and there

761
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:05,879
Speaker 1: was some drap off when they faced the Bengals. He's

762
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,360
Speaker 1: really an unsung hero for them. I mean, that's a

763
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 1: great pick. The Trench Warrior. He was a horse for

764
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 1: them on the defensive front and really freed up ed

765
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:15,200
Speaker 1: in one on one situations because he was the guy

766
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 1: demanding he was double double teams. Yeah yeah against the Bengals.

767
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 1: All right, good wrap up, Mannie. That might have been

768
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,720
Speaker 1: my favorite all year. Nicely done. Those are the Maddie Awards,

769
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,440
Speaker 1: presented by Energy Mark, the official energy supplier to the

770
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,920
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. We will take a break, but get back

771
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:31,920
Speaker 1: to your phone calls next Here on One Bills Live,

772
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 1: presented by Kalida Health. It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right,

773
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 1: welcome back to One Bills Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker

774
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,960
Speaker 1: with you, and we're going to get to Brandon Bean's

775
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 1: comments in the second hour of the show. But in

776
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,320
Speaker 1: the meantime, we take a couple of phone call balls

777
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,920
Speaker 1: here and we lead off with Chris in Brooklyn, who's

778
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 1: been waiting patiently. What do you go for his Chris,

779
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 1: you're on one Bills Live. Hey, how are you guys? Good?

780
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 1: Two quick things, One for being I think what I

781
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 1: got from his interview was I think Dorsey and Fraser's

782
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:23,280
Speaker 1: jobs are relatively safe, but I think he also recognized

783
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,720
Speaker 1: that there are some deficiencies in terms of player personnel,

784
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:27,360
Speaker 1: and they're going to do whatever they can in the

785
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,799
Speaker 1: off season to try to address the issues, and thank

786
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:33,200
Speaker 1: I'm confident. I'm confident that they will. The other thing

787
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,759
Speaker 1: I wanted to pick your guys brains on is it

788
00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:38,160
Speaker 1: seemed like towards the end of the season, particularly in

789
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 1: the Bengals game, that there was a gap between the

790
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 1: way teams were preparing for the Bills and the way

791
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 1: the Bills were preparing for the teams. The Bengals, for example,

792
00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 1: it seems like they took a look at what the

793
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 1: Bills did well and tried to figure out a way

794
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:51,320
Speaker 1: to stop it. They looked at what the Bill did poorly,

795
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 1: tried to figure out a way to exploit it, and

796
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:55,360
Speaker 1: then they looked at what their own weaknesses were, like

797
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 1: their offensive line, and tried to figure out ways to

798
00:45:58,080 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 1: get around it, like getting the ball out of borrows

799
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: hands quickly. It seemed like what the Bills have been

800
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 1: doing I could be way off, Which is why I

801
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,399
Speaker 1: want to hear what you guys think is that their

802
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:08,879
Speaker 1: preparation was more about the things that they do well,

803
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 1: and the assumption was that the things that we do

804
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 1: well are things that we can do well against anybody.

805
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 1: But I didn't really see especially towards the end of

806
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: the season, or any sort of opponent specific game plans,

807
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 1: both on the offense or defense, or frankly, any real

808
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,279
Speaker 1: recognition that they did have weaknesses, like on the offensive line,

809
00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 1: and then ways to get around that, like trying to

810
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 1: get the ball out of Josh Allen's hands a little

811
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 1: bit quicker. So I want to contribue to hear what

812
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:35,839
Speaker 1: you guys think about that. I'll hang up and listen.

813
00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 1: I appreciate you guys, Yeah, I mean, I respect the theory, Chris.

814
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 1: I just don't think there's any way for us to

815
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 1: know definitively whether Ken Dorsey or Leslie Frasier went into

816
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 1: games saying, Hey, here's a matchup that we like. Let's

817
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: exploit that this week with these plays or these play calls.

818
00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 1: I think we all know that it's a matchup league,

819
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:58,920
Speaker 1: and those two men have been in the league long

820
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 1: enough to know that exploiting matchups is a good way

821
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,440
Speaker 1: to help your team win football games. And knowing that

822
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:09,360
Speaker 1: Ken Dorsey was here for three of the four years

823
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 1: that Brian Dayball was here, I would like to think

824
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 1: that he got some of that just by osmosis, Because

825
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,360
Speaker 1: Brian Dabele was a guy that looked at the matchups

826
00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 1: first and then built a game plan around exploiting those matchups.

827
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:27,040
Speaker 1: I would like to think that Ken Dorsey takes a

828
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:30,360
Speaker 1: similar approach, having witnessed the success of that when Dabell

829
00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:34,800
Speaker 1: was here. As for Frasier, I don't know specifically what

830
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 1: his m is, but I think the mindsets a little

831
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 1: bit different on that side of the ball. Sure you

832
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 1: can attack as a defense, but more often than not,

833
00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:47,360
Speaker 1: you're just trying to find ways to neutralize what that

834
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:50,320
Speaker 1: opponent does best each and every week. I get what

835
00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:55,439
Speaker 1: you're saying. I don't think we can universally say that's

836
00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:57,520
Speaker 1: all that they do. They just prepared to do what

837
00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:00,839
Speaker 1: they do best. I think it's multi layered, and you're

838
00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:04,839
Speaker 1: not as successful as a coordinator as Frazier has been

839
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 1: the last five years unless you are trying to exploit

840
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:13,240
Speaker 1: things that from a specific opponent in a given week. Certainly,

841
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,840
Speaker 1: teams want to do what they do best, no question

842
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 1: about it, in every game. But knowing what I know

843
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:21,440
Speaker 1: and the way it was when I played, and what

844
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 1: I've heard and been able to harvest from doing the

845
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 1: analyst job for CBS for two decades, here's what I knew.

846
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 1: I know it feels and I sound I'm like I'm

847
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:33,000
Speaker 1: talking out on both sides of my mouth, but it

848
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:37,399
Speaker 1: really is. I doubt what you're saying is true, even

849
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 1: though it feels like it is. I don't think that

850
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 1: there's you know, the Bills are going to do what

851
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:44,640
Speaker 1: they do no matter what, and force them to play

852
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,920
Speaker 1: against the Bills no matter what. Given what I know

853
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:52,000
Speaker 1: about how teams prepare in the NFL, every game is

854
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 1: one hundred percent opponent specific. They've got Certainly they do

855
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:58,680
Speaker 1: a lot of the same things because they're hard to

856
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:01,240
Speaker 1: defend because of the players that are running them running

857
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:04,120
Speaker 1: the plays. So they will run some plays every game,

858
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,759
Speaker 1: or some type of the same play every game, but

859
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 1: they will even within the play that the pass routes

860
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:15,360
Speaker 1: may look the same, the protections different, the cadence is different,

861
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:19,880
Speaker 1: the shifts and motions beforehand are different. So everything they

862
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:23,880
Speaker 1: do is opponents specific, even though it feels to us

863
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:27,120
Speaker 1: like they may be unimaginative or that they're doing the

864
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,400
Speaker 1: same thing or they're trying to target the same thing.

865
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:34,640
Speaker 1: Every game plan is one hundred percent opponents specific. It

866
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:36,000
Speaker 1: was that way when I played, and it was going

867
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,320
Speaker 1: to be that way. And one of the reasons that

868
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 1: the teams I played for they could get away with

869
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 1: doing a lot of the same things was the way

870
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,919
Speaker 1: they ran it with pace and tempo, which is also

871
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:50,239
Speaker 1: something the Bills use. And also that the fact that

872
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:52,399
Speaker 1: they had four Hall of Fame guys on their side

873
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,840
Speaker 1: of the ball running that offense players make the difference.

874
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:59,880
Speaker 1: Josh makes a difference, Digs makes a difference. You know,

875
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:02,160
Speaker 1: they got some guys that make that are difference makers

876
00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 1: no matter who they're playing against. So while I get

877
00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:11,120
Speaker 1: the feeling that the Bills aren't as imaginative as other

878
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:14,560
Speaker 1: teams they played, you think about these last the two

879
00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:18,600
Speaker 1: games before the Bengals game. The Bills turned it over

880
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:22,160
Speaker 1: like three times in both those games and still hung

881
00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:25,320
Speaker 1: thirty four points and thirty five points on those teams.

882
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:31,239
Speaker 1: They've got an enormous engine offensively, an enormous engine, and

883
00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:34,840
Speaker 1: it was sputtering and scoring thirty five points. Yeah, I

884
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:38,000
Speaker 1: mean they never tapped into and I think him Hines,

885
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:40,839
Speaker 1: they never tapped into James Cook And then to your point,

886
00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:45,120
Speaker 1: they were still scoring thirty plus. That's that's that's a

887
00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:49,800
Speaker 1: testament to how good they are and it's also a

888
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 1: testament that the fact that they turn it over. I mean,

889
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 1: the turnovers were kind of the thing that didn't let

890
00:50:55,200 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 1: the engine hum. That's it. So it's not about play call,

891
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:05,600
Speaker 1: it's not about anything else. It's about execution, and it's

892
00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:08,600
Speaker 1: about the decisions your quarterback makes, and it's about whether

893
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 1: you can win on the outside. And I'm confident that

894
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,480
Speaker 1: Ken Dorsey puts in the game plan every week ways

895
00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:18,080
Speaker 1: to get the ball out of Josh's hands quickly, but

896
00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:20,880
Speaker 1: he's at the mercy of his decision maker on the field.

897
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,120
Speaker 1: And if Josh wants to wait an extra second in

898
00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:24,799
Speaker 1: the pocket because he wants to hit the big play

899
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 1: instead of the checkdown play to keep him on schedule, Okay, yeah,

900
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:31,759
Speaker 1: you live with it. You live with it sometimes, but

901
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 1: when it's not, work with it when it's yeah, or

902
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:36,040
Speaker 1: die with it when it's not working. And he still

903
00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:39,239
Speaker 1: wants to do that. So I know Dorsey takes the

904
00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 1: heat sometimes for that. But I will guarantee you because

905
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:45,440
Speaker 1: I watched it on all twenty two there are checkdown

906
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:50,000
Speaker 1: options on every single play. You're at the mercy or

907
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,000
Speaker 1: your quarterback making the right decision, and you can flip

908
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:56,480
Speaker 1: that right around and go right to Cincinnati. Chris is saying,

909
00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:00,279
Speaker 1: you know, the Bengals put things in the game planned

910
00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 1: to get the ball out of Joe Burrow's hands quickly.

911
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,439
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow is the fastest quarterback in the league snap

912
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 1: to release, it's two and a half seconds on average,

913
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:11,120
Speaker 1: and there were three plays in that game last week

914
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 1: where he got the ball out in under two seconds.

915
00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:17,480
Speaker 1: So I don't care if you got Von Miller, Richard

916
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 1: d Lawrence Taylor on your defensive line. If he's getting

917
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:23,759
Speaker 1: the ball out in two and a half seconds, most

918
00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:27,200
Speaker 1: people aren't getting there even if they come clean. So

919
00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:30,920
Speaker 1: that's just the quarterback he is. I'm telling you right now.

920
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:34,800
Speaker 1: I said it two weeks ago. He incorporated Brady's style

921
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:37,480
Speaker 1: of play into his game this season, and he may

922
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,320
Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl because of it. So that guy's

923
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 1: not going anywhere, So you better think of some other things,

924
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:46,719
Speaker 1: like using Greg Russo's reach and sticking hands up to

925
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 1: at least bats and passes down, because that guy's not

926
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:51,400
Speaker 1: gonna get sacked a lot anymore. He was tired of

927
00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:53,279
Speaker 1: getting sacked as much as he did his rookie year.

928
00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:56,560
Speaker 1: He changed his own game to fix it. Despite the

929
00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,319
Speaker 1: offensive line additions that that team made. He said, I'm

930
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 1: gonna fix it myself. I'm gonna get so good in

931
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:03,440
Speaker 1: this offense. I'm gonna know where I'm going with the

932
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:05,800
Speaker 1: ball before I have the ball in my hands. And

933
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:09,439
Speaker 1: he does and that's why he is looking unbeatable right now. Yeah,

934
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:11,320
Speaker 1: that was a good call from Chris and Brooklyn. I

935
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,720
Speaker 1: appreciate it. That was It was some well well stated

936
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:18,000
Speaker 1: question and it was really good. Yea, but yeah, I

937
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,400
Speaker 1: hope we answered it for you. Break time for us

938
00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:23,719
Speaker 1: Brandon Bean's comments, at least the highlights of them from

939
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 1: his press conference yesterday, coming your way next an hour

940
00:53:26,160 --> 00:54:13,520
Speaker 1: number two here on One Bill's Live. Stay tuned. These

941
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:18,759
Speaker 1: One Bill's Live presented by called Light of Health. All right,

942
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:21,520
Speaker 1: here we are our number two on a Wednesday. Chris Brown,

943
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker with you, and this time of the show

944
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:28,200
Speaker 1: has been reserved to present to you some of the

945
00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:31,920
Speaker 1: more notable comments from GM Brandon Bean from his season

946
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:36,600
Speaker 1: wrap up press conference late yesterday. We know that all

947
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:39,239
Speaker 1: of you probably did not have the opportunity to hear it,

948
00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:41,920
Speaker 1: certainly not in its entirety, since it went more than

949
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:44,719
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes, so we kind of broke down the highlights

950
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:46,959
Speaker 1: for you in terms of what we thought you would

951
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:51,160
Speaker 1: be most interested in hearing about. And we begin with

952
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:56,280
Speaker 1: the line of questioning that opened up the press conference

953
00:54:56,680 --> 00:55:01,560
Speaker 1: pretty early on having lost to the Bengal and you

954
00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:05,399
Speaker 1: know not, I don't know, there's this perception out there

955
00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,120
Speaker 1: since the loss that there is a gap now that

956
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:11,880
Speaker 1: exists between the Bills and the Bengals and Chiefs. So

957
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:17,040
Speaker 1: Brandon was asked about that perceived gap. Here was his

958
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:22,720
Speaker 1: take on that subject. I mean, we won thirteen games.

959
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:25,080
Speaker 1: I think we have a good team. We didn't show

960
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,160
Speaker 1: it the other night the team we are, but you know,

961
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:30,160
Speaker 1: I think we we beat a lot of good programs

962
00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:33,280
Speaker 1: this year, and we lost three games by eight points.

963
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:39,800
Speaker 1: You know, listen, I'm gonna I'm gonna own all the

964
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:44,200
Speaker 1: things that we can do better, no doubt, but our

965
00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:48,360
Speaker 1: teams haven't. You don't see us. I'm gonna call that

966
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:50,319
Speaker 1: a blowout the other night, whether it was or wasn't,

967
00:55:50,440 --> 00:55:55,719
Speaker 1: seventeen points Indianapolis here a year ago. They put it

968
00:55:55,800 --> 00:56:00,680
Speaker 1: to us, how many times like we haven't, Like nobody's

969
00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:04,040
Speaker 1: really run us out of the gym very often. But

970
00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:08,400
Speaker 1: they played a very good game and we you know,

971
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:10,719
Speaker 1: we didn't have it the other night. But you got

972
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:14,200
Speaker 1: to be careful about saying off a one game. You know,

973
00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:16,480
Speaker 1: we've been like that Indianapolis game in season that we

974
00:56:16,600 --> 00:56:19,240
Speaker 1: just said, hey, we stink play all the young guys

975
00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:23,239
Speaker 1: kicked the other guys to the curb. You know, if

976
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:25,640
Speaker 1: if this wasn't the tournament, if this would have been

977
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,479
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati game in the regular season that we didn't

978
00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,359
Speaker 1: get to finish and that was the outcome, we would

979
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:33,520
Speaker 1: have come back here and said, man, we just got

980
00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:36,280
Speaker 1: kicked in the teeth. Let's look at it. What happened?

981
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:39,759
Speaker 1: You know, where are our matchup advantages? Where are they

982
00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:42,600
Speaker 1: where are they doing it? Did they outschem Us would

983
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:45,239
Speaker 1: look at all those things, But I don't want to

984
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:48,200
Speaker 1: make it one game bigger than it is. The other night,

985
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:51,239
Speaker 1: they definitely proved that they deserve to move on and

986
00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:56,360
Speaker 1: we didn't. Yeah. So the danger here is, as Brandon

987
00:56:56,400 --> 00:57:00,319
Speaker 1: points out, attaching far too much importance to one football game.

988
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,040
Speaker 1: Was it an important football game? Yeah, it was the

989
00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:04,799
Speaker 1: AFC Divisional playoff. As Steve and I have said more

990
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:08,279
Speaker 1: than once, team just flat ran out of gas. They

991
00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:10,759
Speaker 1: had nothing left to give. And that's why they didn't

992
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:14,719
Speaker 1: even resemble the team that we saw for most of

993
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:18,720
Speaker 1: the season. And whether we're right or wrong, I don't know,

994
00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:21,600
Speaker 1: but I tie it to the DeMar thing. I think

995
00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:27,040
Speaker 1: it completely drained them of any emotional energy over the

996
00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:30,560
Speaker 1: last three games that they played. They were doing it

997
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 1: on fumes and then to go down fourteen nothing and

998
00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:37,120
Speaker 1: have to climb that deficit in addition to trying to

999
00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:40,960
Speaker 1: win a playoff game against the top notch opponent, they

1000
00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:43,120
Speaker 1: just didn't have it in him. You can talk about

1001
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:45,720
Speaker 1: scheming all day long. They could have had the best

1002
00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 1: game plan known to man, and I still don't think

1003
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:50,200
Speaker 1: it would have been executed because they just didn't have

1004
00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:53,320
Speaker 1: anything left to give. But that doesn't mean you dismiss

1005
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,600
Speaker 1: a thirteen win season, which, as Brandon pointed out, they

1006
00:57:57,680 --> 00:58:00,360
Speaker 1: lost three games by eight points, and in the three

1007
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:04,040
Speaker 1: games there were other factors helping that opponent win the

1008
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 1: football game. Week three, it was the heat down in

1009
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:11,000
Speaker 1: Miami and a shorthanded Bill's roster. There are other loss

1010
00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:13,640
Speaker 1: to the Jets, that's probably the closest thing to a

1011
00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,840
Speaker 1: legitimate victory, but the Bills turned it over a few

1012
00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,520
Speaker 1: times and Josh got hurt at the end of the game,

1013
00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:24,680
Speaker 1: and then the Vikings game, the Bills unquestionably help them

1014
00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:27,960
Speaker 1: win the football game. So you roll all that together

1015
00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:31,360
Speaker 1: and over the last three seasons, what are they thirty

1016
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:35,800
Speaker 1: seven and twelve? I mean, there is no gap. You

1017
00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:38,680
Speaker 1: want to improve some of the talent on the offensive

1018
00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:40,840
Speaker 1: side of the ball. I'm signing up for that because

1019
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:42,760
Speaker 1: I think you do have to do that. But it's

1020
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:45,000
Speaker 1: only because the guys that you thought could step into

1021
00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 1: bigger rolls proved that they couldn't this year, and so

1022
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:51,280
Speaker 1: now you have to go back and retool that part

1023
00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:55,040
Speaker 1: of the roster and make it better with more certain

1024
00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:57,720
Speaker 1: answers than the ones who were banking on to grow

1025
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,040
Speaker 1: into rolls this year, namely Gabe David, said Isaiah McKenzie.

1026
00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:05,840
Speaker 1: So beyond that, though the gap is marginal, not vast

1027
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:10,400
Speaker 1: at all. Right, I agree with that, and I know

1028
00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:12,400
Speaker 1: that we all sit here and say, well, because of

1029
00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:14,120
Speaker 1: the last game and the way it happened, you know,

1030
00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:16,000
Speaker 1: we need a more you know, everybody would like to have,

1031
00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:19,160
Speaker 1: you know, the Philadelphia Eagles pass rush, and you'd like

1032
00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:22,360
Speaker 1: to have the Niners run defense, and you'd like to

1033
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:26,200
Speaker 1: have the Cincinnati wide receivers and the simple fact that matters.

1034
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:28,800
Speaker 1: You build your team with the best players you can find,

1035
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:31,360
Speaker 1: and you win the way those players play their best

1036
00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:35,240
Speaker 1: and when they play their best, that's how the Bills

1037
00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:36,920
Speaker 1: got to the point where they're one of the elite

1038
00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:40,800
Speaker 1: teams in the league. And they are despite two touchdown

1039
00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 1: or whatever. They lost by two touchdowns last weekend, despite

1040
00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:49,760
Speaker 1: losing by a wide marg seventeen points last weekend, they're

1041
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:52,120
Speaker 1: still one of the elite teams in the league. And

1042
00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:54,960
Speaker 1: they got there by doing things the way Brandon being

1043
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:58,520
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott map out every offseason, and it hasn't been

1044
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,160
Speaker 1: the same in any of these off seasons, and it shouldn't.

1045
01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:02,960
Speaker 1: It's not gonna be the same this year. It's the

1046
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,440
Speaker 1: formulas different every year, right, the formulas. I think the

1047
01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:07,480
Speaker 1: formula is the same, but the players are going to

1048
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:10,240
Speaker 1: be different, vastly different this time. Maybe they'll maybe it's

1049
01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:13,000
Speaker 1: more offensive linemen this year, more often, more wide receivers

1050
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:16,240
Speaker 1: this year, and it was defensive lineman defensive tackles last year.

1051
01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:17,920
Speaker 1: You know, it goes on and on, and they're might

1052
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:20,080
Speaker 1: be different trends in the league that forced you to

1053
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:22,200
Speaker 1: shift your thinking from one year to the next. Point.

1054
01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:24,480
Speaker 1: I guess what I'm point is to say, in the

1055
01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:29,200
Speaker 1: most general terms possible Bean and McDermott and Terry Pagoula

1056
01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:31,640
Speaker 1: and Joe Shane. But in the past and now it's

1057
01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:35,720
Speaker 1: malik uh. These guys they're they're looking at it and

1058
01:00:35,760 --> 01:00:37,240
Speaker 1: they're gonna build it the way they know how to

1059
01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:39,160
Speaker 1: build it, and they're gonna do it exactly the way

1060
01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:42,160
Speaker 1: they've done it. They're gonna make good decisions, they're gonna

1061
01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:44,560
Speaker 1: they're gonna We're gonna have some surprise signings for some

1062
01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 1: guys we don't really know about, like Tim Settle and

1063
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:49,200
Speaker 1: Dequan Jones last year it's like, who, all right, let

1064
01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 1: me go back and look at who are these guys? Well,

1065
01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:53,240
Speaker 1: they already know who they are. That kind of thing.

1066
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:54,960
Speaker 1: There's gonna be some guys on the market that we

1067
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:58,400
Speaker 1: don't know about that they're gonna love. So that's what's

1068
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:00,560
Speaker 1: gonna happen. It's gonna be fun to watch, it always is.

1069
01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:03,360
Speaker 1: And there'll be question marks coming into next year because

1070
01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:07,000
Speaker 1: they will be a new group and they're gonna have

1071
01:01:07,120 --> 01:01:11,880
Speaker 1: new guys that they're going to be depending on that

1072
01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:14,720
Speaker 1: we haven't seen play as a Bill yet, So there's

1073
01:01:14,720 --> 01:01:18,320
Speaker 1: gonna be some questions coming in, but they're gonna know.

1074
01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:20,720
Speaker 1: They're gonna have a history that you can go back

1075
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:22,640
Speaker 1: to and look and see how they played for other teams,

1076
01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:24,680
Speaker 1: or these draft picks are going to be something you

1077
01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:28,480
Speaker 1: can get excited about in their measurables, I guess. Long

1078
01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:34,560
Speaker 1: story short, Bills don't have to change their process. Their

1079
01:01:34,680 --> 01:01:38,200
Speaker 1: process is elite and they play that way from the

1080
01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:40,120
Speaker 1: beginning of the season to the end, and its work.

1081
01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 1: It's working, It is really working. A lot of teams

1082
01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:45,640
Speaker 1: in the league wish they could do it the way

1083
01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:48,760
Speaker 1: the Bills do year over year. That's right. This isn't

1084
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:50,360
Speaker 1: a one or two year can. I don't take this

1085
01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:53,480
Speaker 1: and I don't think this windows is not I don't

1086
01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:58,600
Speaker 1: think it's closing. It's closed on this team for this year.

1087
01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:01,160
Speaker 1: But you get to training camp next year and you

1088
01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:03,320
Speaker 1: watch these guys play, and you're gonna see that they're

1089
01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:07,080
Speaker 1: gonna be an elite team still going forward. I believe,

1090
01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:10,280
Speaker 1: I really believe one of the more pressing questions on

1091
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:14,480
Speaker 1: the part of fans was how will they address some

1092
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:17,360
Speaker 1: of the needs, the perceived needs of this football team

1093
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:21,520
Speaker 1: going forward? And is there enough cap space to address

1094
01:02:21,600 --> 01:02:25,640
Speaker 1: some of those needs. Brandon Bean addressed Buffalo's current cap

1095
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:31,560
Speaker 1: situation yesterday. Good question. I wish I had some masters

1096
01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:33,520
Speaker 1: that I don't. Normally in December we get we go

1097
01:02:33,600 --> 01:02:35,720
Speaker 1: to the labor meetings and we get kind of a

1098
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:39,520
Speaker 1: floor and a ceiling of the cap, like it's going

1099
01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:42,440
Speaker 1: to be two hundred and eighteen to two hundred and

1100
01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:45,000
Speaker 1: twenty five million, something like that. We don't have that

1101
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:49,280
Speaker 1: at this point. They were basically waiting on that Sunday

1102
01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:52,640
Speaker 1: ticket deal with YouTube TV and maybe something else. So

1103
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:56,560
Speaker 1: you know, it's two eight this year, but I couldn't

1104
01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:58,400
Speaker 1: tell if it's gonna be two twenty or two thirty

1105
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:01,960
Speaker 1: or I'm hoping for a lot of dollars as much

1106
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:05,000
Speaker 1: as because we need it. But you know, right now

1107
01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:10,360
Speaker 1: we're probably in the two forties of what's on the book.

1108
01:03:10,520 --> 01:03:14,400
Speaker 1: It ain't gonna be two forty something. So the short

1109
01:03:14,440 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 1: answer is we're gonna have to get under the cap

1110
01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:22,520
Speaker 1: by moves, could be roster cuts, and that's all the

1111
01:03:22,600 --> 01:03:24,560
Speaker 1: free agents that you guys are aware of, not on

1112
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:29,200
Speaker 1: the books, all those accounting zero dollars. So we're gonna

1113
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:32,840
Speaker 1: have to without telling you. I mean, you already know

1114
01:03:32,920 --> 01:03:35,560
Speaker 1: the answer. There's not gonna be a von Miller signing

1115
01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:37,560
Speaker 1: or somebody of that that We're just we're gonna have

1116
01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:39,400
Speaker 1: to work to get under the cap so that we

1117
01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:42,880
Speaker 1: can operate next year. So the long and short of

1118
01:03:42,960 --> 01:03:47,040
Speaker 1: it is, and I don't think enough fans are aware

1119
01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:53,800
Speaker 1: of this. When COVID hit, the cap went down from

1120
01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:58,520
Speaker 1: what it had been projected to be, and it made

1121
01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:01,440
Speaker 1: a slight recovery the next year, but that next year

1122
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:04,160
Speaker 1: the cap was still below I'm talking twenty twenty one now,

1123
01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:08,120
Speaker 1: the cap was still twelve to fifteen million below what

1124
01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:11,840
Speaker 1: it was projected to be. So all of these general

1125
01:04:11,920 --> 01:04:14,919
Speaker 1: managers who signed players to long term contracts with those

1126
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:19,840
Speaker 1: projected caps were now in trouble and had to make

1127
01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:26,160
Speaker 1: difficult decisions, either lopping people completely off their roster or

1128
01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:30,320
Speaker 1: asking an untold number of players to restructure their contract,

1129
01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:34,200
Speaker 1: take a pay cut, something of that nature, and then

1130
01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:39,479
Speaker 1: they were more restrictive with their own spending in free

1131
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,320
Speaker 1: agency and other avenues. The Bills have done that the

1132
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:45,160
Speaker 1: last couple of years and were still able to field

1133
01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:49,560
Speaker 1: a championship caliber roster. They're still feeling the effects of that.

1134
01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:52,760
Speaker 1: He just said he's hoping the cap jumps up a

1135
01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:55,000
Speaker 1: little bit higher than it has been in recent years,

1136
01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:58,560
Speaker 1: which is anywhere from ten to fourteen fifteen million dollars

1137
01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:01,080
Speaker 1: per year. He's hoping for a bigger jump with some

1138
01:05:01,200 --> 01:05:03,480
Speaker 1: of these deals, as he mentioned the YouTube TV deal

1139
01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:05,680
Speaker 1: for the Sunday ticket and a couple of the other

1140
01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:09,080
Speaker 1: broadcast deals they're waiting on that. They still don't have

1141
01:05:09,360 --> 01:05:12,160
Speaker 1: a hard and fast number. The bottom line is their

1142
01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:14,680
Speaker 1: current cap spending for twenty twenty three is two hundred

1143
01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:18,080
Speaker 1: and forty million without the twenty one unrestricted free agents

1144
01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:23,120
Speaker 1: on the roster. Already, they're over the cap minus the

1145
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:27,600
Speaker 1: twenty one players salaries, So they're gonna have to do

1146
01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:32,480
Speaker 1: even more slashing this year to get under what they

1147
01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:35,360
Speaker 1: project the cap to be, which realistically is probably going

1148
01:05:35,440 --> 01:05:37,520
Speaker 1: to be in the two twenties somewhere. They're at two

1149
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:42,320
Speaker 1: forty now with forty less than forty players on the roster.

1150
01:05:42,520 --> 01:05:44,800
Speaker 1: What was it now? What was the cap this last year?

1151
01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:49,080
Speaker 1: Two o eight. Yeah, it ain't gonna go up. It

1152
01:05:49,160 --> 01:05:51,840
Speaker 1: ain't gonna go up. It's not it's not up. He

1153
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:57,800
Speaker 1: certainly doesn't expect above fifteen. There are gonna be. I'm

1154
01:05:57,840 --> 01:06:00,560
Speaker 1: just telling you right now, for the players that are

1155
01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:04,000
Speaker 1: under contract right now, there are going to be cap casualties.

1156
01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:06,120
Speaker 1: There are going to be people lopped off the roster

1157
01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:10,280
Speaker 1: just to be under the cap whenever that number is produced,

1158
01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:15,680
Speaker 1: presumably no later than the combine, I would think, because

1159
01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:17,440
Speaker 1: you got a plan for free agents, you gotta have

1160
01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:20,320
Speaker 1: time to plan exactly. So it might be in the

1161
01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:22,520
Speaker 1: next few weeks, maybe it'll be at the Super Bowl,

1162
01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 1: who knows. But the bottom line is the Bills and

1163
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:30,760
Speaker 1: plenty of other teams are going to be in a

1164
01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:33,080
Speaker 1: position where they're just going to have to start trimming,

1165
01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:37,160
Speaker 1: for lack of a better term, trimming the fat because

1166
01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 1: the cost prohibitive nature of the cap, which went backwards

1167
01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:43,640
Speaker 1: during the COVID years, still hasn't recovered back to the

1168
01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:47,000
Speaker 1: point of where it was projected to be for this

1169
01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:49,520
Speaker 1: calendar year, the last calendar year. In the calendar year

1170
01:06:49,560 --> 01:06:54,640
Speaker 1: before that, they're still recovering from it, and gms are

1171
01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:58,360
Speaker 1: doing backflips and jumping through all kinds of hoops just

1172
01:06:58,480 --> 01:07:00,720
Speaker 1: to stay under the cap and still field a competitive

1173
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:03,640
Speaker 1: football team. And the Bills are in that boat right

1174
01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:08,959
Speaker 1: It's it's gonna take some financial gymnastics. Um, there's gonna

1175
01:07:08,960 --> 01:07:10,720
Speaker 1: be some guys that are going to be exposed to

1176
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:15,160
Speaker 1: free agency that you wish didn't have to be all

1177
01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:17,160
Speaker 1: that's going to happen. Bills aren't alone in that. There's

1178
01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:18,440
Speaker 1: gonna be a ton of teams that are doing it.

1179
01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:20,360
Speaker 1: Some of the teams in the division may not. They

1180
01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:22,040
Speaker 1: may be in they're a lot better shape than the

1181
01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:28,600
Speaker 1: Bills are fine, but they've still even getting down to

1182
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:33,600
Speaker 1: the two twenty that it may be they're gonna be.

1183
01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:36,960
Speaker 1: They're gonna have a really good squad, a really good squad.

1184
01:07:37,400 --> 01:07:39,880
Speaker 1: So we'll have to wait and see how that how

1185
01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:42,440
Speaker 1: it transpires. But yeah, there's a lot of work to

1186
01:07:42,520 --> 01:07:45,920
Speaker 1: be done this offseason and we're, you know, just we're

1187
01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:48,120
Speaker 1: not even done with the other one yet, the other season,

1188
01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:51,080
Speaker 1: so knowing the cap is going to be difficult for

1189
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:54,960
Speaker 1: Buffalo to navigate. The next question was what is his

1190
01:07:55,160 --> 01:07:59,000
Speaker 1: What is Brandon being strategy in making the necessary moves

1191
01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:02,520
Speaker 1: to make the roster better all while operating in what

1192
01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:06,760
Speaker 1: will be a prohibitive situation in terms of cost. Here

1193
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 1: is Brandon Bean's answer on that subject. Yeah, I mean,

1194
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:12,640
Speaker 1: we're we're gonna be creative. Um, we're gonna try and win,

1195
01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:15,040
Speaker 1: and we're gonna do everything. That's I started out by

1196
01:08:15,120 --> 01:08:18,160
Speaker 1: thinking Terry and Kim and you know, they'll give us

1197
01:08:18,240 --> 01:08:20,599
Speaker 1: every resource, send us up to me to figure it out,

1198
01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:23,840
Speaker 1: and we're gonna have We're gonna put as strong a

1199
01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:28,200
Speaker 1: team as we can out there, and hopefully we're hosting

1200
01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:31,080
Speaker 1: games next year. That's that's the goal. It's we're not

1201
01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:33,720
Speaker 1: going into this year saying, hey, I don't think we're

1202
01:08:33,720 --> 01:08:37,360
Speaker 1: gonna be as talented as we were last season or

1203
01:08:37,640 --> 01:08:40,680
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty when we went to the uh, you

1204
01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:44,599
Speaker 1: know AFC Championship. We just gotta you know, we gotta

1205
01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:48,000
Speaker 1: hit on draft picks. We gotta find you know, low

1206
01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:51,439
Speaker 1: cost free agents that can find roles, whether it's key

1207
01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:54,680
Speaker 1: back up, a solid start, or whatever it is. And

1208
01:08:54,920 --> 01:08:57,519
Speaker 1: and so it'll be on you know, me and my

1209
01:08:57,600 --> 01:09:01,559
Speaker 1: scouting staff to h to make the right move. Yeah,

1210
01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:03,320
Speaker 1: I mean, there's no other way to slice it. That's

1211
01:09:03,360 --> 01:09:06,679
Speaker 1: what you gotta do. When you're on a budget, which

1212
01:09:06,760 --> 01:09:09,439
Speaker 1: they will unquestionably be. You gotta find diamonds in the rough.

1213
01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:12,960
Speaker 1: You gotta draft out of your mind, and you got

1214
01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:14,960
Speaker 1: to find guys on one year deals who do pan

1215
01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:17,320
Speaker 1: out which Brandon Bean more often than not, has been

1216
01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:20,439
Speaker 1: able to find. That's how they do it. They get

1217
01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:24,560
Speaker 1: a guy in who's maybe older or whatever, longer in

1218
01:09:24,600 --> 01:09:26,560
Speaker 1: the tooth, or hasn't had a chance for whatever the

1219
01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:29,880
Speaker 1: situation is, and they get them on this one year deal,

1220
01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:32,639
Speaker 1: and those guys come into training camp and go through

1221
01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:35,760
Speaker 1: the regular season highly motivated not just to play, but

1222
01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:39,320
Speaker 1: to play well and to be available to play. They

1223
01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:44,920
Speaker 1: you know, and that gives the roster an edge that

1224
01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:50,400
Speaker 1: they need and get. You get whatever you get from

1225
01:09:50,439 --> 01:09:52,080
Speaker 1: the level of guys you're saying, if they are in

1226
01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:53,960
Speaker 1: a veteran minimum, okay, I get it, or if they

1227
01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:57,040
Speaker 1: have incentives or maybe that's a little above veteran minimum,

1228
01:09:57,080 --> 01:10:01,280
Speaker 1: they are highly motivated, highly deivated to play their best.

1229
01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:06,240
Speaker 1: And that's not everybody is in the NFL. And it

1230
01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:10,120
Speaker 1: does set a precedent and give you some competition to

1231
01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:12,439
Speaker 1: make your team better everywhere when you got guys like

1232
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:15,639
Speaker 1: that sprinkled all over your roster. So with the fiscally

1233
01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:19,920
Speaker 1: restrictive situation in which Brandon being and his personnel department

1234
01:10:19,960 --> 01:10:23,960
Speaker 1: will be operating, that also begged the question, what's to

1235
01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:27,880
Speaker 1: become of two of their more important unrestricted free agents,

1236
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:33,200
Speaker 1: namely Jordan Poyer and Tremaine Edmunds. Here is Being's initial

1237
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:40,200
Speaker 1: comments on how that could go. Two guys that are

1238
01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:44,840
Speaker 1: true Buffalo Bills. Can't say enough of great things about them.

1239
01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:47,519
Speaker 1: I'll start with Jordan. Just Jordan was in the first

1240
01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:49,920
Speaker 1: year here, helping us go through the ups and downs

1241
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:53,680
Speaker 1: and that first playoff run, and him and Micah. It's

1242
01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:57,320
Speaker 1: hard to think of one without the other. But you know,

1243
01:10:57,880 --> 01:11:00,519
Speaker 1: Jordan had some unfortunate luck this year, start in training

1244
01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:03,760
Speaker 1: camp where he got hurt and then um, you know,

1245
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:06,080
Speaker 1: just one thing after another. He you know, and the

1246
01:11:06,240 --> 01:11:09,800
Speaker 1: guy you know took a bus or we rented one

1247
01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:11,720
Speaker 1: of those vans or whatever to get him to Kansas City.

1248
01:11:12,160 --> 01:11:13,479
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know how many players would have

1249
01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:15,720
Speaker 1: done that. I give Jordan a lot of credit. And he,

1250
01:11:16,479 --> 01:11:18,720
Speaker 1: you know, he was a pro. And I know, the

1251
01:11:18,800 --> 01:11:21,840
Speaker 1: whole contract thing like people can handle those and in

1252
01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:26,200
Speaker 1: many different ways we all see that. Um, but a

1253
01:11:26,280 --> 01:11:29,400
Speaker 1: lot of respect for how Jordan, you know, handled this,

1254
01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:33,479
Speaker 1: and and man, he's he's a great pro and did

1255
01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:35,320
Speaker 1: a lot of great things, you know, for us, and

1256
01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:38,720
Speaker 1: and I would love to get him back, for sure.

1257
01:11:38,880 --> 01:11:41,679
Speaker 1: Would be the first to tell you. You know again,

1258
01:11:41,760 --> 01:11:44,080
Speaker 1: when we get some clarity on the cap and what

1259
01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:47,240
Speaker 1: we can do, we'll know more there, m Tremaine. You

1260
01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:53,200
Speaker 1: know we talked about earlier. You know, draft developed resign um,

1261
01:11:53,960 --> 01:11:58,439
Speaker 1: like where that guy is gone is he's just he's

1262
01:11:58,479 --> 01:12:01,320
Speaker 1: been amazing. Um to watch his growth from a nineteen

1263
01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:04,120
Speaker 1: year old. I mean it's not like he's twenty nine.

1264
01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:07,240
Speaker 1: You know those kids. He's still a kid. He's a

1265
01:12:07,320 --> 01:12:10,840
Speaker 1: young man, but you know, very proud of who he is,

1266
01:12:11,040 --> 01:12:15,120
Speaker 1: and you could just see his maturation, like used to Tremaine,

1267
01:12:15,439 --> 01:12:17,640
Speaker 1: You guys feel him. He's a little as big as

1268
01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:21,680
Speaker 1: he is. He's so nice and like you know you

1269
01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:24,880
Speaker 1: saw some anger like fussing at guys, hey, you know,

1270
01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:29,040
Speaker 1: get your in gear, and like just the growth and

1271
01:12:29,479 --> 01:12:32,479
Speaker 1: him being comfortable in his skin to call out another player,

1272
01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:35,479
Speaker 1: whether he's a young guy or a vet. So he's

1273
01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:37,720
Speaker 1: a big part of our success as well, coming in

1274
01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:42,000
Speaker 1: with Josh that year, and you know, like like poor

1275
01:12:42,040 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 1: Yer and many of these other guys would love to

1276
01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:48,240
Speaker 1: keep him all and well, we'll do our best. Yeah,

1277
01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:50,840
Speaker 1: they'll do their best, but I think that's going to

1278
01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:54,880
Speaker 1: be easier said than done. On both fronts because Payer

1279
01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:59,240
Speaker 1: being you know what, was his second team All Pro

1280
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:04,599
Speaker 1: last year. Injuries did add up on him, as Steve

1281
01:13:04,680 --> 01:13:07,720
Speaker 1: pointed out earlier, So maybe that brings his cost down

1282
01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:10,160
Speaker 1: a little bit. But I think they're going to be

1283
01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:12,880
Speaker 1: people around the league interested in his services because even

1284
01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:15,360
Speaker 1: despite all those injuries, he was a productive player, led

1285
01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:19,400
Speaker 1: the team with four interceptions, so and he was playing

1286
01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:23,880
Speaker 1: on a bad leg. So I think he's still going

1287
01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:29,519
Speaker 1: to command a pretty handsome salary, and Edmonds maybe even

1288
01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:33,240
Speaker 1: more so. And with Roquan Smith setting the market. Steve

1289
01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:36,080
Speaker 1: at twenty million dollars a year at the linebacker position

1290
01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:39,519
Speaker 1: in the Daily signed with Baltimore five years, one hundred

1291
01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:42,960
Speaker 1: million dollars. Tremaine Emmons as a player who was just

1292
01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:46,200
Speaker 1: entering his prime at age twenty five, there are going

1293
01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:47,720
Speaker 1: to be people that are going to be willing to

1294
01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:49,639
Speaker 1: pony up money. You have a lot more cap space

1295
01:13:49,680 --> 01:13:53,080
Speaker 1: than Buffalo. He had maybe one of those times where

1296
01:13:54,360 --> 01:13:56,400
Speaker 1: Buffalo will make him an offer that they can afford

1297
01:13:56,479 --> 01:14:00,360
Speaker 1: and feels fair. It'll be on the low side question

1298
01:14:00,400 --> 01:14:02,040
Speaker 1: because it's you know, it's kind of where they're at

1299
01:14:02,840 --> 01:14:05,479
Speaker 1: um and just safe and just say if you want

1300
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:07,479
Speaker 1: to play here. This is the number. And if you

1301
01:14:07,560 --> 01:14:08,840
Speaker 1: want the best we can do, we can the best

1302
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:10,759
Speaker 1: we can do. And if you want to go someplace,

1303
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:13,240
Speaker 1: you know, bless your heart, we love you. UM. And

1304
01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:17,360
Speaker 1: like Shack and Jordan Phillips did, UM, it's a little

1305
01:14:17,400 --> 01:14:19,800
Speaker 1: different though. It is those were role players. It is

1306
01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:23,040
Speaker 1: this guy's a cornerstone player, both of us. There will

1307
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:28,439
Speaker 1: be other players available on the free agent market that

1308
01:14:28,560 --> 01:14:31,400
Speaker 1: will have different gifts. And you know, somebody's gonna line

1309
01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:35,040
Speaker 1: up at middle linebacker for the Bills next year and

1310
01:14:35,320 --> 01:14:36,600
Speaker 1: it's going to be as good as player as they

1311
01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:41,599
Speaker 1: can find. So we'll see what that looks like. UM.

1312
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:43,560
Speaker 1: And it'll be a player that they think has the

1313
01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:46,080
Speaker 1: tools and the capacity to play as well as they

1314
01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:48,720
Speaker 1: you know, as well as Tremaine did this year. UM.

1315
01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:53,320
Speaker 1: And they won't be spending fifteen to twenty million dollars

1316
01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:56,160
Speaker 1: on them. Yeah, So it'll be interesting to see. It's

1317
01:14:56,240 --> 01:14:59,880
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a it's gonna be a really real

1318
01:15:00,120 --> 01:15:04,559
Speaker 1: the interesting offseason because now you know, those core players

1319
01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:07,320
Speaker 1: and we've been watching make this team into an elite franchise,

1320
01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:10,400
Speaker 1: it's time to pay up. It's time it's time to

1321
01:15:10,439 --> 01:15:12,960
Speaker 1: either pay up or move on or you know, handle

1322
01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:15,920
Speaker 1: that cap issue that we've seen so many of these

1323
01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:18,960
Speaker 1: other great teams have these problems and find a way

1324
01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:22,640
Speaker 1: out of it. It's hard. It's hard to do. And

1325
01:15:22,960 --> 01:15:25,400
Speaker 1: and Brandon Bean is not the GM that's willing to

1326
01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:29,759
Speaker 1: put his team in cap jail in the coming years.

1327
01:15:29,960 --> 01:15:31,880
Speaker 1: He doesn't want to be like the New Orleans Saints

1328
01:15:32,520 --> 01:15:37,720
Speaker 1: where you know, there they were sive million dollars over

1329
01:15:37,800 --> 01:15:39,800
Speaker 1: the cap at one point you last Yeah, they were

1330
01:15:39,840 --> 01:15:42,439
Speaker 1: over a hundred at one point over the cap. Yeah.

1331
01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:46,519
Speaker 1: And they didn't just jump through hoops. They were jumping

1332
01:15:46,560 --> 01:15:50,519
Speaker 1: through flaming tires. You know, they were doing evil knevil

1333
01:15:50,600 --> 01:15:53,519
Speaker 1: type stuff. They had. There was an oil they've done

1334
01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:55,439
Speaker 1: that the last three years. It was a it was

1335
01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:57,519
Speaker 1: an oil slick that somebody let the whole thing on

1336
01:15:57,640 --> 01:15:59,680
Speaker 1: fire and they had to jump into. That's what it was.

1337
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:01,960
Speaker 1: It was bad. And he doesn't want to do that

1338
01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:05,719
Speaker 1: and just kick the can down the road. He wants

1339
01:16:05,760 --> 01:16:08,640
Speaker 1: to try to stay as CAP strong as possible. The

1340
01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:12,800
Speaker 1: restrictive cap due to COVID compromise that plan. He's tried

1341
01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:15,600
Speaker 1: to work his way around it and navigate it despite that,

1342
01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:17,800
Speaker 1: but He's still not going to put this team in

1343
01:16:17,880 --> 01:16:20,040
Speaker 1: cap jail. He's not going to relent, and that's going

1344
01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:23,080
Speaker 1: to lead, I think, to some very very difficult decisions.

1345
01:16:23,479 --> 01:16:27,439
Speaker 1: And it's very possible that some cornerstone players that this

1346
01:16:27,640 --> 01:16:29,639
Speaker 1: fan base has come to know over the years will

1347
01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:31,600
Speaker 1: not be here next year, and I think everybody's just

1348
01:16:31,640 --> 01:16:35,000
Speaker 1: got to prepare themselves for that possibility. We take a

1349
01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:37,639
Speaker 1: break here, but we have more Brandon Bean's comments coming

1350
01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:41,960
Speaker 1: your way, including his thoughts on the first season with

1351
01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:46,120
Speaker 1: Ken Dorsey as offensive coordinator. His comments on that subject

1352
01:16:46,200 --> 01:16:48,360
Speaker 1: next here on One Bill's Live, presented by Collat of Health.

1353
01:16:48,400 --> 01:17:04,240
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right, welcome back to One

1354
01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:06,840
Speaker 1: Bills Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you as we're

1355
01:17:06,960 --> 01:17:08,960
Speaker 1: making our way through some of the more notable comments

1356
01:17:09,240 --> 01:17:13,720
Speaker 1: from Brandon Bean's press conference yesterday, and year one of

1357
01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:19,160
Speaker 1: the offense under Ken Dorsey was a verified success. Finished

1358
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:21,759
Speaker 1: second in the league in total offense, seventh in rushing,

1359
01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:26,760
Speaker 1: seventh in passing, second in the league in sack percentage,

1360
01:17:27,160 --> 01:17:29,679
Speaker 1: first in the league and third down conversion rate ninth

1361
01:17:29,760 --> 01:17:34,599
Speaker 1: and red zone touchdown percentage, and second in total points. However,

1362
01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:37,360
Speaker 1: after the last game of the season, there were some

1363
01:17:37,560 --> 01:17:39,400
Speaker 1: members of the Bills fan base ready to head to

1364
01:17:39,439 --> 01:17:43,519
Speaker 1: the coach's booth with flaming torches and pitchforks. What did

1365
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:46,680
Speaker 1: Brandon Bean think of Ken Dorsey's first season as coordinator.

1366
01:17:47,160 --> 01:17:52,280
Speaker 1: Here is his take on his OC. I would hope

1367
01:17:52,360 --> 01:17:54,880
Speaker 1: that I'm a better GM now than I was in

1368
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:58,559
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen or twenty eighteen. And Ken did a lot

1369
01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:01,800
Speaker 1: of good things. Our offensive numbers are good, like any

1370
01:18:02,040 --> 01:18:04,280
Speaker 1: time you go through something. The first year, I'm sure

1371
01:18:04,600 --> 01:18:06,360
Speaker 1: he felt at times like he was drinking out of

1372
01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:10,400
Speaker 1: a fire hose. You're dealing with different things. But Ken

1373
01:18:10,600 --> 01:18:14,439
Speaker 1: is a hard worker, he's smart, and you got a

1374
01:18:14,439 --> 01:18:16,519
Speaker 1: guy who played the position at a very high level,

1375
01:18:17,240 --> 01:18:20,240
Speaker 1: you know, one national championships on a major college team,

1376
01:18:20,840 --> 01:18:24,160
Speaker 1: and that's an asset to knowing what in this case

1377
01:18:24,280 --> 01:18:27,640
Speaker 1: Josh is going through. And so Ken, I would be

1378
01:18:27,800 --> 01:18:30,439
Speaker 1: very self critical. We'll we'll all put our heads together,

1379
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:35,680
Speaker 1: you know of of hey, these things went well, and

1380
01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:38,559
Speaker 1: these are samarias. Maybe we want to grow and um,

1381
01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:41,040
Speaker 1: but it's you know Sean talks about is about having

1382
01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:44,120
Speaker 1: the growth mindset, and I believe Ken does have that.

1383
01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:47,320
Speaker 1: And we'll continue to look for ways to to help him,

1384
01:18:47,360 --> 01:18:49,200
Speaker 1: and that's our job to kind of support him, and that,

1385
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:52,479
Speaker 1: you know, as he enters year two. That last part

1386
01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:55,320
Speaker 1: of that comment, as he enters year two, I think

1387
01:18:55,520 --> 01:18:58,439
Speaker 1: lends credence to the fact that Ken Dorsey isn't going

1388
01:18:58,439 --> 01:19:00,720
Speaker 1: anywhere unless he takes a head coaching job. He did

1389
01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:04,560
Speaker 1: interview for the Carolina Panthers head coaching position, although it

1390
01:19:04,640 --> 01:19:09,280
Speaker 1: looks like they're leaning towards veteran head coaches who have

1391
01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:13,439
Speaker 1: been head coaches before down there in Carolina, So it

1392
01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:16,720
Speaker 1: sounds like on the outside looking and he's probably not

1393
01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:19,519
Speaker 1: going to get that job, which would mean he would

1394
01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:25,240
Speaker 1: be back as his second season here, and I'm encouraged

1395
01:19:25,280 --> 01:19:28,280
Speaker 1: by that because I think with all that he had

1396
01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:31,280
Speaker 1: to learn on the fly growing into the job that

1397
01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:36,200
Speaker 1: he had never done before at this level, the numbers

1398
01:19:36,240 --> 01:19:40,400
Speaker 1: are pretty good. I understand people were disappointed with a

1399
01:19:40,479 --> 01:19:46,439
Speaker 1: ten point performance in a divisional playoff, Steve, but like

1400
01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:49,519
Speaker 1: we've said before, I just don't think the players had

1401
01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:54,679
Speaker 1: it to give. The execution wasn't there, And to point

1402
01:19:54,720 --> 01:19:57,519
Speaker 1: to the coordinator I think is a little misguided. I'm

1403
01:19:57,560 --> 01:20:01,360
Speaker 1: not saying he's blameless, but the vast majority of the

1404
01:20:01,439 --> 01:20:06,120
Speaker 1: problems that happened on the field are execution oriented, and

1405
01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:09,000
Speaker 1: I would submit that that was the case again last Sunday.

1406
01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:14,240
Speaker 1: Again not saying Dorsey doesn't have any part in the

1407
01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:17,800
Speaker 1: product on the field, he absolutely does. But for a

1408
01:20:17,880 --> 01:20:20,840
Speaker 1: first year coordinator, second in the league in total offense,

1409
01:20:20,920 --> 01:20:22,720
Speaker 1: second in scoring, the lead the league in third down.

1410
01:20:22,760 --> 01:20:24,479
Speaker 1: They were the only team in the league that converted

1411
01:20:24,520 --> 01:20:27,040
Speaker 1: more than fifty percent of their third downs this year. Yeah,

1412
01:20:27,080 --> 01:20:33,519
Speaker 1: I'm hesitant to use the last Patriot game, the playoff

1413
01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:36,599
Speaker 1: Dolphin game, or the Cincinnati game in any way shape

1414
01:20:36,640 --> 01:20:40,280
Speaker 1: perform as an evaluation. And none of those three games

1415
01:20:40,760 --> 01:20:44,800
Speaker 1: because of where the team was mentally, and even you know,

1416
01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:48,000
Speaker 1: they scored thirty five against Patriots and thirty four against

1417
01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:52,080
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, that I'd throw those games out. They won

1418
01:20:52,720 --> 01:20:58,280
Speaker 1: the Patriot game because two touchdown return kickoffs and they

1419
01:20:58,680 --> 01:21:03,519
Speaker 1: scored thirty four points as the Dolphins team that you know,

1420
01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:08,040
Speaker 1: and they turned it over three times. They just this

1421
01:21:08,280 --> 01:21:12,280
Speaker 1: was not the same team that started the season. And

1422
01:21:12,520 --> 01:21:14,519
Speaker 1: what happened in Cincinnati on that Monday night I think

1423
01:21:14,600 --> 01:21:16,960
Speaker 1: changed a lot of these guys. And so you can

1424
01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:18,720
Speaker 1: say what you want about to how this season ended,

1425
01:21:18,720 --> 01:21:20,519
Speaker 1: and we all get caught up in the latest time,

1426
01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:23,320
Speaker 1: you know, the last game. It's that recency bias, you know,

1427
01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:25,120
Speaker 1: you think about it's like, wow, we got to change

1428
01:21:25,160 --> 01:21:27,400
Speaker 1: this and this. They don't need to change anything. What

1429
01:21:27,479 --> 01:21:30,639
Speaker 1: they need to do is get some rest and start

1430
01:21:30,880 --> 01:21:33,400
Speaker 1: and build this team for next season with the pieces

1431
01:21:33,439 --> 01:21:35,400
Speaker 1: that you can keep as many of them as you can.

1432
01:21:36,720 --> 01:21:44,040
Speaker 1: Dorsey and Leslie Frazier are highly respected around the NFL.

1433
01:21:44,120 --> 01:21:47,360
Speaker 1: It's not like people in Buffalo are the only ones

1434
01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:50,680
Speaker 1: watching these guys. Some other people who actually compete against them.

1435
01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:52,400
Speaker 1: Got a lot of respect for him and a lot

1436
01:21:52,439 --> 01:21:55,920
Speaker 1: of admiration for what they've been able to accomplish. So, yeah,

1437
01:21:56,080 --> 01:22:01,160
Speaker 1: they've they've thrown some stinkers up. Yeah, sure, not as

1438
01:22:02,040 --> 01:22:04,040
Speaker 1: not too many given the fact that they've lost. They

1439
01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:06,719
Speaker 1: lost three games in the regular season by totally eight points.

1440
01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:10,839
Speaker 1: So while it looked at times like they were sputtering,

1441
01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:15,200
Speaker 1: even in their sputtering, they were way better than a

1442
01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:16,760
Speaker 1: lot of other teams that they were facing, and a

1443
01:22:16,800 --> 01:22:19,880
Speaker 1: lot of other teams were facing and other games across

1444
01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:23,080
Speaker 1: the league. They this team was elite this year all

1445
01:22:23,120 --> 01:22:25,080
Speaker 1: the way from start to finish. They started out in

1446
01:22:25,320 --> 01:22:27,680
Speaker 1: LA on a Thursday night and crushed that team and

1447
01:22:27,800 --> 01:22:31,519
Speaker 1: started off like gangbusters and kept it going through a

1448
01:22:31,600 --> 01:22:35,360
Speaker 1: tough stretch where they unbelievably lost two games in a

1449
01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:39,240
Speaker 1: row and like you said, just gave the Minnesota Vikings

1450
01:22:39,280 --> 01:22:44,679
Speaker 1: a win and still ended up before the Cincinnati games

1451
01:22:44,800 --> 01:22:50,439
Speaker 1: holding the one seed. So the coordinators, yeah, while they'll

1452
01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:52,320
Speaker 1: tell you and they'll know what they need to do

1453
01:22:52,439 --> 01:22:55,920
Speaker 1: to get better, I think it's hard to complain when

1454
01:22:56,080 --> 01:22:58,120
Speaker 1: when they're number two in the league and scoring. They

1455
01:22:58,160 --> 01:23:00,599
Speaker 1: scored more points this year than they did last year

1456
01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:02,479
Speaker 1: when we all thought they were the best thing ever.

1457
01:23:03,680 --> 01:23:05,400
Speaker 1: But the simple fact that matter is this. The reason

1458
01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:08,559
Speaker 1: this season feels like less of a success than last

1459
01:23:08,640 --> 01:23:10,760
Speaker 1: year is because of the way it ended in the

1460
01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:13,400
Speaker 1: last two or three games, and in that last game,

1461
01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:17,799
Speaker 1: particularly in the playoffs, it wasn't an overtime thrilling, classic

1462
01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:20,640
Speaker 1: game of a lifetime. And we want to address that

1463
01:23:20,800 --> 01:23:25,240
Speaker 1: now because Brandon Bean was asked to comment on what

1464
01:23:25,520 --> 01:23:28,639
Speaker 1: happened and why the team wasn't playing at a peak

1465
01:23:28,720 --> 01:23:32,800
Speaker 1: performance level, and he referenced that in comparison to the

1466
01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:39,120
Speaker 1: previous two seasons, again, this year we weren't when we

1467
01:23:39,240 --> 01:23:42,400
Speaker 1: hit the playoffs. We weren't in a groove the way

1468
01:23:42,479 --> 01:23:45,400
Speaker 1: we were in twenty twenty or twenty twenty one. And

1469
01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:50,040
Speaker 1: without going back into that, that's you have to set

1470
01:23:50,120 --> 01:23:55,000
Speaker 1: yourself up in the regular season for seating and obviously

1471
01:23:55,080 --> 01:23:57,280
Speaker 1: you want the one so you get that buy and

1472
01:23:57,439 --> 01:24:00,479
Speaker 1: we were right there going to Cincinnati and we lost.

1473
01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:05,120
Speaker 1: It is what it is. But you know, there's a

1474
01:24:05,200 --> 01:24:07,519
Speaker 1: lot of people in this league that would sign up

1475
01:24:08,280 --> 01:24:11,080
Speaker 1: to be the number two seed because you know you're

1476
01:24:11,120 --> 01:24:13,519
Speaker 1: hosting two games as long as you win, and a

1477
01:24:13,680 --> 01:24:17,360
Speaker 1: chance if one loses, to host all three, and that's

1478
01:24:17,400 --> 01:24:19,280
Speaker 1: the that's the easiest route to the super Bowl. You

1479
01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:21,880
Speaker 1: have to put yourself in that position because, yes, you

1480
01:24:21,960 --> 01:24:23,559
Speaker 1: can go on the road and win three games. We've

1481
01:24:23,560 --> 01:24:29,400
Speaker 1: seen that done. That's hard to do. But again, you

1482
01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:31,800
Speaker 1: want to be a consistent team. It starts with winning

1483
01:24:31,840 --> 01:24:35,679
Speaker 1: your division every year, getting home playoff games. We've slowly

1484
01:24:35,800 --> 01:24:37,640
Speaker 1: moved up the rank and we haven't got that one

1485
01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:41,000
Speaker 1: seed yet, but we're gonna keep looking at every avenue

1486
01:24:41,040 --> 01:24:43,440
Speaker 1: we can. But I don't I don't want to overreact

1487
01:24:43,479 --> 01:24:47,679
Speaker 1: to one game. Yeah, overreacting to one game can be dangerous.

1488
01:24:47,680 --> 01:24:51,240
Speaker 1: That's exactly right, you're not gonna throw out everything that

1489
01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:53,840
Speaker 1: you learned about your team over the last two months

1490
01:24:54,840 --> 01:24:57,120
Speaker 1: because it was a little different in that last game.

1491
01:24:57,880 --> 01:25:00,040
Speaker 1: And I don't think it's any question we all I

1492
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,360
Speaker 1: think it was different. I don't know if every fan

1493
01:25:03,360 --> 01:25:08,080
Speaker 1: agrees with me, but that was a Bills team that

1494
01:25:08,320 --> 01:25:11,639
Speaker 1: didn't look anything like the Bills team who we'd watched play,

1495
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:14,559
Speaker 1: you know, sixteen seventeen games through the regular season, didn't

1496
01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:19,559
Speaker 1: look anything like him. Right, And you can give some okay,

1497
01:25:19,720 --> 01:25:22,280
Speaker 1: give Sincina some credit yet, but that's but come on,

1498
01:25:22,560 --> 01:25:25,880
Speaker 1: that something was out, something was off, and more so

1499
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:29,080
Speaker 1: than just what Cincinnati could be given credit for. They

1500
01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:31,400
Speaker 1: played good, and they're really good team and they're going

1501
01:25:31,479 --> 01:25:35,080
Speaker 1: to continue to be, but they didn't get the Buffalo

1502
01:25:35,160 --> 01:25:36,960
Speaker 1: Bills that we had seen during the twenty twenty two

1503
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:41,320
Speaker 1: regular season, no question about it. One more comment for

1504
01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:45,519
Speaker 1: you to play from Brandon Bean and it concerns the

1505
01:25:45,640 --> 01:25:48,840
Speaker 1: long range outlook for von Miller, who, as we know,

1506
01:25:49,240 --> 01:25:53,360
Speaker 1: is going through rehab for his partially torn acl and

1507
01:25:53,520 --> 01:25:57,680
Speaker 1: his torn lateral meniscus in his knee, and the projection

1508
01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:02,200
Speaker 1: for how much of the twenty twenty three season we

1509
01:26:02,320 --> 01:26:06,280
Speaker 1: can expect to see von Miller on the field come September.

1510
01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:09,760
Speaker 1: Here is Brandon Bean's take on that. Yeah, I think

1511
01:26:09,840 --> 01:26:11,760
Speaker 1: Vaughan's in a good spot. I think he's doing well.

1512
01:26:13,479 --> 01:26:16,040
Speaker 1: I expect him. I'm gonna say the same thing. I

1513
01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:19,760
Speaker 1: expect him for a good portion of twenty twenty. I'm

1514
01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:23,439
Speaker 1: not ruling out all of twenty twenty three, but I

1515
01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:25,599
Speaker 1: don't want to say that either. I think it's it's

1516
01:26:25,640 --> 01:26:29,439
Speaker 1: too early. I think I was asking Nate, he's seven

1517
01:26:29,520 --> 01:26:32,479
Speaker 1: weeks it's crazy out. Time flies, But that was seven

1518
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:36,160
Speaker 1: weeks ago that he had that surgery, right, So seven

1519
01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:38,400
Speaker 1: weeks out, I mean we've till him walking around on

1520
01:26:38,439 --> 01:26:41,919
Speaker 1: the sidelines during the playoff games. You know, with his teammates.

1521
01:26:43,800 --> 01:26:46,840
Speaker 1: Every case is different. As we know, it took Tradevious

1522
01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:50,080
Speaker 1: White a full calendar year. Brandon Bean did say that

1523
01:26:50,640 --> 01:26:53,519
Speaker 1: von Miller, having been through this before, because he does

1524
01:26:53,560 --> 01:26:57,080
Speaker 1: have a torn acl in his history, knows what to expect,

1525
01:26:57,160 --> 01:27:00,840
Speaker 1: and so he's even more encouraged about his recovery than Trudavious,

1526
01:27:00,840 --> 01:27:02,599
Speaker 1: who had never had a major injury in his life.

1527
01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:08,800
Speaker 1: It was also a partial tear, not a full tear, right,

1528
01:27:09,040 --> 01:27:12,240
Speaker 1: and I think that is a big difference in the

1529
01:27:12,560 --> 01:27:15,960
Speaker 1: recovery and the procedures and the prognosis and all that. Yeah,

1530
01:27:17,520 --> 01:27:21,240
Speaker 1: so you know, hopefully all things considered, and knowing von

1531
01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:25,439
Speaker 1: Miller's positive outlook on just about everything, including negative events

1532
01:27:25,479 --> 01:27:29,960
Speaker 1: like Piron r ACL and a football game, hopefully, Yeah,

1533
01:27:30,200 --> 01:27:34,360
Speaker 1: he's available for the majority of the twenty twenty three season.

1534
01:27:34,400 --> 01:27:36,479
Speaker 1: I think most would agree the most important thing is

1535
01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:39,880
Speaker 1: for him to be available down the stretch and the playoffs,

1536
01:27:39,960 --> 01:27:43,920
Speaker 1: because his presence was sorely missed come the postseason. We

1537
01:27:44,080 --> 01:27:45,720
Speaker 1: have to take a break here. When we come back,

1538
01:27:45,760 --> 01:27:48,479
Speaker 1: we'll get some some thoughts on the tweet sheet to

1539
01:27:48,600 --> 01:27:52,840
Speaker 1: our comments today along with our Twitter question, which is,

1540
01:27:53,000 --> 01:27:56,400

1546
01:28:30,200 --> 01:28:31,800
Speaker 1: the tweet sheet, which is always is brought to you

1547
01:28:31,840 --> 01:28:34,439
Speaker 1: by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official equipment moving company of

1548
01:28:34,479 --> 01:28:37,599
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. What do you expect this offseason? Based

1549
01:28:37,640 --> 01:28:41,040
Speaker 1: on GM Brandon Bean's comments on Tuesday, Ed says, I

1550
01:28:41,200 --> 01:28:45,840
Speaker 1: expect plenty of financial creativity regarding players signings. Eric says,

1551
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:49,759
Speaker 1: I expect Bean to get more draft picks, trade for picks,

1552
01:28:50,200 --> 01:28:52,840
Speaker 1: trade a player for another player, or move back in

1553
01:28:52,920 --> 01:28:55,360
Speaker 1: the draft to get more picks. That's how you save

1554
01:28:55,479 --> 01:28:58,520
Speaker 1: cap space by getting rookies and not paying big money contracts.

1555
01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:01,400
Speaker 1: Two wide receivers and athletic tight end and the whole

1556
01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:05,679
Speaker 1: offensive line. He have six picks. There is some merit

1557
01:29:05,720 --> 01:29:08,960
Speaker 1: to what he's saying, though, because the Bills have to

1558
01:29:09,040 --> 01:29:13,040
Speaker 1: get cheap labor, and you want to do that by

1559
01:29:13,200 --> 01:29:15,240
Speaker 1: hitting on guys in the draft that can step on

1560
01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:20,519
Speaker 1: the field and play for you right away. Yeah, you're

1561
01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:22,479
Speaker 1: not gonna go out in free agency and pay sixteen

1562
01:29:22,520 --> 01:29:25,600
Speaker 1: million dollars for a receiver. That's not happening. Question is

1563
01:29:25,640 --> 01:29:28,559
Speaker 1: how do they get more draft picks. They have a one, two, three, four,

1564
01:29:28,800 --> 01:29:31,679
Speaker 1: and two fives. I don't think they have two fives

1565
01:29:31,720 --> 01:29:34,880
Speaker 1: anymore because the niheim Hinz trade was a conditional six.

1566
01:29:35,439 --> 01:29:38,640
Speaker 1: Ninem Hines played enough to make it a five, so

1567
01:29:38,800 --> 01:29:40,720
Speaker 1: a five. One of those two fives. I think is

1568
01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:42,880
Speaker 1: going to the Colts, but we'll wait for confirmation from

1569
01:29:42,920 --> 01:29:46,080
Speaker 1: the team that'll do it for us here on a Wednesday,

1570
01:29:46,200 --> 01:29:48,360
Speaker 1: Steve and I'll be back here tomorrow at one. We

1571
01:29:48,479 --> 01:29:49,120
Speaker 1: will see you then
