00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: This one Bills Live presented by Kalida Health.

2
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,279
Speaker 2: All Right, how's everybody doing after a weekend of football

3
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 2: that did not involve you rooting for your Bills or

4
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 2: chewing your fingernails or whatever you've done for the last

5
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 2: few Bills games that have been kind of close. Chris Brown,

6
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 2: Matty glab with you here on a Monday that is

7
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 2: not recapping a Bills game, per se, but we will

8
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 2: go around the NFL here in short order. How was

9
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 2: your weekend? It's like half dent weather, half crappy weather.

10
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 3: It was nice to have a couple days off, but

11
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 3: I feel like when we have a couple days off

12
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,759
Speaker 3: in season, if I'm not leaving Buffalo, I just end

13
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 3: up doing chores around the house and getting stuff done

14
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 3: that has been on my to do list since the

15
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 3: season started. So it was nice to get some stuff done.

16
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 3: But Sunday night, I looked at my husband and I

17
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 3: was like, I just wish I laid on the couch

18
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 3: for a couple extra hours. We had games on, we

19
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 3: were watching games and all of that. So that was nice,

20
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 3: but I just wish I was a little bit more

21
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 3: of a couch potato.

22
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 4: But alas, yeah, I.

23
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 2: Did Yeah, I raked way too many leaves, probably more

24
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 2: than I should have, because my back was killing me.

25
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 2: The next day I actually had to jump in my

26
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: tub and soak because I was added for like three

27
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 2: hours plus because I have a lot of trees in

28
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 2: my backyard. And the worst part is this is only

29
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 2: round one of what is going to be three rounds

30
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 2: because half of my trees still have half of their

31
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 2: leaves on them. But I have a pile in front

32
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: of my house that goes up to my mailbox. Oh

33
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 2: my gosh, and it's about twenty feet long. Wow, in

34
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: front of my house. To work out the truck can't

35
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 2: get there soon enough to vacuum them up. Because our

36
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 2: town services, they vacuum up to leave so we don't

37
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 2: have to bag, which is a huge, huge help. But

38
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 2: you know, you throw them on the tarp, you drag

39
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 2: the tarp out there, you dump them out. I did

40
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 2: that nine times. Not Saturday was nuts, but got to

41
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 2: spend some time with the missus, so that was good.

42
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 2: You know, there aren't many Sundays where our spouses have

43
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 2: us because we're working this time of year, so that

44
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 2: was good. I did a little brunch thing yesterday that

45
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 2: was nice, and then we were talking about getting ready

46
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 2: for Halloween Mannie, which is tomorrow as we know, and

47
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 2: she has come up with a very simple solution for Halloween,

48
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 2: which is instead of celebrating it on October thirty first,

49
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 2: it should always be celebrated the last Saturday of the month.

50
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 2: That way, kids aren't like rushing out of school and

51
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 2: you know, running to houses number one and you never have.

52
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 2: Parents can plan better because because I'm telling you right now,

53
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 2: parents with kids, if it's on a weekday, now they

54
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,959
Speaker 2: got to hustle home from work, they got to run

55
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 2: them around. For the younger kids, it gets dark early,

56
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 2: so now they can't have a full, you know, kind

57
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 2: of Halloween experience. So I think it's a heavier lift

58
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 2: during the week for parents and for people you know

59
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 2: that may want to get home and hand out some candy.

60
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 2: Where if it's on a Saturday, you know, whether you've

61
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 2: got to do it in shifts because you've got some

62
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 2: errands to run or whatever. I don't know. I like

63
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: that idea a lot, Like I know, I would have

64
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 2: liked it a lot when I had kids trick or

65
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 2: treating because now you don't have to worry about race

66
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 2: and home and doing all. I don't know, it just

67
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 2: it seems like an easier way to go about the

68
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 2: whole holiday. Maybe we're crazy, but you brought that up,

69
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 2: and I was like, I like that.

70
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 3: It's a good perspective I feel like from parents or

71
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 3: adults end of things. But I remember as a kid,

72
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 3: having Halloween on a weekday was like.

73
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 4: This makes the week so much better.

74
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 3: We get to have a Halloween party in class and

75
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 3: take away from learning all for that, and then we

76
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 3: get to go trigger treating right after school.

77
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 4: So I was a big fan of Like.

78
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, so as a kid, I get that, And I

79
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 2: guess you could still have schools celebrate Halloween on the

80
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 2: thirty first. I just think got to have an edict like, hey,

81
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 2: trigger traating's on the weekend, no matter when the thirty

82
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 2: first falls, the last Saturday of the month, we're doing it,

83
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 2: kind of like Thanksgiving, you know, third Thursday in November,

84
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 2: last Saturday of the month.

85
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 4: You just know when it's gonna happen.

86
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,479
Speaker 2: I don't know, it just seems to make sense to me,

87
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 2: and it makes it easier on all the parents. They

88
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 2: got to take trigger treaders around too, because they don't

89
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 2: have to worry about work.

90
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 4: In most cases, I think it's a good idea.

91
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 2: So the other problem that we have is I have

92
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 2: a dog that goes absolutely bonkers when the doorbell rings,

93
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 2: like rips the house apart, racing to the front door.

94
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 4: Do you guys have to put a sign on this

95
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 4: ring the door?

96
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 2: Yes, I have a sign on my front door year

97
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 2: round now that says please do not ring the door.

98
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 2: You can't even knock, like if you knock, the same reaction.

99
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 4: So please whisper if you're here.

100
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 2: So for Halloween, either myself or my wife are gonna

101
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 2: have to be either if and if it's a crummy day.

102
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 2: I'm not doing that. So now I've got to be

103
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 2: camped out in my front room in my house so

104
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 2: I can see when kids are approaching and then open

105
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 2: the door before they get there and say.

106
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 5: Here we go.

107
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,799
Speaker 2: What do you you know that kind of thing. So, yeah,

108
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 2: my dog has turned us into preemptive door openers for Halloween.

109
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 2: Nobody rings our bell or knocks on the door. This

110
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 2: is where we are with my dog now.

111
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 4: So dog runs the house exactly.

112
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, or prompts us into action so she doesn't

113
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 2: act like a lunatic. So that's where we are for

114
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 2: basically all day tomorrow when we get home from work.

115
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 2: But we got to get around the NFL here to

116
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 2: kind of bringing up to speed on everything else that

117
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 2: happened in the league. We trust that a lot of

118
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 2: you were watching a lot of the games, especially the

119
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 2: four o'clock Cincinnati game against San Francisco, which was airing

120
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 2: locally here in Western New York. We'll get to that

121
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 2: one in a second. But Around the NFL presented by

122
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 2: Kalida Healthy, official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills, and

123
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 2: we begin with the barn Burner Maddie. That was Jets Giants.

124
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: If you're a fan of punting, this game was for you.

125
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 2: And if you didn't have enough punting in regulation, they

126
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 2: also gave you overtime, so the Giants to kind of

127
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 2: get to the end of this thing. They're up three,

128
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 2: ten to seven, and they are in position to kick

129
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 2: a thirty five yard field goal to go up six

130
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 2: with twenty four seconds left in regulation. Graham Gonno hooks

131
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 2: a wide left. Now, I did hear reports that he

132
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 2: was dealing with an injury, so because he had missed

133
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 2: one earlier in the game. So they're winning by three.

134
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 2: They could have been up nine if he hits two

135
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 2: field goals and you know that game's over, because I

136
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 2: mean it was a one score game throughout. In any event,

137
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 2: he hooks it wide left. So now it's still ten

138
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 2: to seven with like twenty six twenty four seconds left,

139
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 2: and the Jets have the ball at like their own

140
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 2: twenty six. And I'll give Zach Wilson some credit here.

141
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 4: They moved the ball decently when they meet on that

142
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 4: last ditch.

143
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,559
Speaker 2: Drive, he had two twenty nine yard completions. And here's

144
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 2: the other thing. I was telling the guys in the

145
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 2: control room this before we went on the air. We

146
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 2: learned something. If your team is in a last second

147
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 2: situation and they go down on the middle of the field,

148
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: you have no timeouts and the clock is still running.

149
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 2: Alan Lazard got up and with the clock winding down,

150
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 2: handed the ball to his center, who came down the field,

151
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 2: and the center essentially put the ball wherever we thought

152
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 2: it should be, and then the ref comes in and

153
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 2: taps the football to make it a legit spot of

154
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 2: the ball and they're able to spy it with one

155
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 2: second left. If I am a head coach in this

156
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 2: league anywhere, on a Monday day. I am telling my players,

157
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 2: this is what you do. Do not hand it to

158
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 2: the ref. Hand it to the center and make the

159
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 2: ref hustles rear end over there to spot the ball.

160
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 2: That's what I'm doing from now on. If I'm in

161
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 2: that situation ever again, and I'm the coach, that's what

162
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 2: I'm teaching my players to do. You catch the ball,

163
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 2: clock's running, we're out of timeouts, and we have to

164
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 2: spike it, hand it to our center and have him

165
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 2: spot the ball and let the ref go scurrying around

166
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 2: to catch up to you.

167
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, because they got off with one second left. I

168
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 4: was wondering. I was like, ough, cause they handed it

169
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 4: to the ref.

170
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 2: They're not getting it off. No, I don't think they are.

171
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:35,559
Speaker 4: I agree.

172
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 2: So that's the way I would do it. And then

173
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 2: in overtime you saw what happened there. The Jets or

174
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 2: sorry the Giants win the toss, take the ball. Now

175
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,599
Speaker 2: here's the debate. This is what the big debate is

176
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 2: about today, Maddie, because we saw the way that game

177
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 2: went right. Eleven punts and a turnover on downs by

178
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 2: the Jets, twelve punts and two who miss field goal

179
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 2: is by the Giants. So I just felt, with the

180
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 2: way the game was going, you can make an argument

181
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 2: that the Giants who won the coin toss should have

182
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 2: deferred in overtime instead of taking the ball. And the

183
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 2: reason why is nobody had scored a touchdown for about

184
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 2: two and a half quarters at that point, and so

185
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 2: if you defer kick off, and you can, your defense

186
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 2: can stop the Jets, which it had done for the

187
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 2: most part, or even if they give up a field goal,

188
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 2: games still not over. So you can now you know

189
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 2: what you need to do. I at least have to

190
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 2: get a field goal, and if you somehow miraculously score

191
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 2: a touchdown, the game's over. So I was wondering, I

192
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 2: think that's a debatable argument with the way that game

193
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 2: was going. What do you think?

194
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 3: Like, No, I there's combined twenty four punts in the

195
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 3: game total.

196
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 2: More punts than points.

197
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good conversation to have.

198
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 4: It's a good argument.

199
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 3: If both teams are struggling to move the football and

200
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 3: score score touchdowns, then why not defer? Why not bet

201
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 3: that you guys can close it out right and stop

202
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 3: stop them on defense?

203
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 2: Here's the other thing. Yeah, if so, if you put

204
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 2: your the Giants put their defense out there and they

205
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 2: stop the Jets. You can argue also that if they're

206
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 2: punting after about four or five plays, maybe that your

207
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,839
Speaker 2: field position when you get the ball will even be

208
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 2: better than it would be on a kickoff.

209
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good point too.

210
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 2: So now you got less to travel if your defense

211
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 2: can get that stop, Now you got less to travel.

212
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 2: And guess what, you only need a field goal to

213
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 2: win because you know it's sudden death now because they

214
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 2: failed on their first rate possession. So I think there's

215
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 2: some there's some merit to that argument with the way

216
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 2: that game went, because we're so conditioned to think, oh

217
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 2: my god, you got to get the ball in over

218
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 2: ten because if you score a touchdown, it's over. Like

219
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 2: you got to get the ball first. In that game,

220
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 2: I think you could argue deferring there in overtime. So

221
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 2: that was kind of an interesting postgame discussion. Zero third

222
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 2: down conversions in the first half, oh for eighteen for

223
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 2: both teams. The Jets didn't convert one until the two

224
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 2: nineteen mark of.

225
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 4: The fourth quarter and they finished.

226
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 3: If you were to combine third down attempts and conversions

227
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 3: for each team's they finish four of thirty four.

228
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it set football back about three decades. Yesterday, and

229
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,559
Speaker 2: with some measure of understanding, the Giants were on their

230
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 2: third quarterback because Daniel Jones was inactive, still out with

231
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 2: the neck injury, although they say he's cleared for contact

232
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 2: and he's going to practice this week. So that's good

233
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 2: for the Giants, although it may not matter at this

234
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 2: point in time. They're two and six, and then Tyrod

235
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 2: Taylor suffers a rib injury and has to go to

236
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 2: the hospital.

237
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, which leads stayed overnight.

238
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 2: I think it leads me to believe they were concerned

239
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 2: about internal organs getting damaged by whatever rib injury he sustained,

240
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 2: because he came to the sidelines and he just bent

241
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 2: over and took a knee and he was holding like

242
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 2: the middle of his rib cage, which is kind of

243
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 2: I don't know. It makes me think there's like some

244
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 2: gruesome break in there, something break off the sternum or something.

245
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 2: Oh so, you know, shot to the solar plexus or whatever.

246
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 2: But then so Tommy DeVito was playing and he had

247
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 2: a touchdown, but he ran it in he didn't throw it,

248
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,720
Speaker 2: and they were terrified of him throwing the football. Apparently

249
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 2: they had seven total passing yards on six completions.

250
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:37,439
Speaker 4: He was two of seven. Yeah, in Tyrod Taylor seven

251
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 4: passing yards.

252
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 2: That is insane. Bills really could have used the Giants

253
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 2: help there, and I thought they were gonna help him.

254
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 2: But they fall to the Jets, and the Jets are

255
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 2: now four and three on the season instead of being

256
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 2: three and four, and there's just a half game behind

257
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 2: Buffalo with the head to head tiebreaker from week one.

258
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 2: The Patriots didn't help the Bills either after falling to

259
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 2: the Dolphins in Miami thirty one seventeen. I didn't have

260
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 2: a lot of hope in that one, to be honest.

261
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 2: New England did make it a one score game at

262
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,359
Speaker 2: about eight minutes left, made it twenty four to seventeen,

263
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 2: but Miami got a late touchdown from Jalen Waddell to

264
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,679
Speaker 2: pretty much seal the thing. Miami, now six and two

265
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 2: is still a game clear atop the division. Patriots are

266
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 2: now just like the Giants, two and six on the season,

267
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 2: And we just saw news from NFL Networks Mike Garafolo

268
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 2: Kendrick Bourne out for the season. Tore his ACL in

269
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 2: the game. So it goes from bad to worse for

270
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 2: the Patriots, who look like they are going nowhere this

271
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 2: season at all, and unfortunately played their best game of

272
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 2: the season against.

273
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 3: The Bills, I know, and it's like, well, when you

274
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 3: look at that, you talk about that, and you talk

275
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 3: about how they played against the Dolphins and how the

276
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 3: Dolphins clearly meet them, it's like.

277
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and our MSG viewers are seeing that. Jalen Ramsey

278
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 2: returned to the lineup to play his first game as

279
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 2: a Miami Dolphin, had an interception of the game which

280
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 2: led to a touchdown for the Dolphins. So Dolphins defense

281
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 2: is getting healthy. They're still you know, they're still giving

282
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 2: up points, but you know, it was the Patriots and

283
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 2: you probably shouldn't give up more than seventeen to New

284
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 2: England and they didn't. The Bills did, so yeah, just

285
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 2: not great. But you know, people criticize the Bills when

286
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 2: they struggle or can't find their stride on offense. Did

287
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 2: you see the Chiefs yesterday.

288
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 4: It's another team that struggled. That's pretty good.

289
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 2: And they were facing the thirty first ranked defense in

290
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 2: football in points allowed and last in total defense in

291
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 2: the Broncos in Denver and Mahomes looked terrible. Two picks

292
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 2: a fumble, had just one scoring drive of fifty yards

293
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 2: or more. His passer rating was fifty two point nine. Now,

294
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 2: some people are probably going to give Mahomes a pass

295
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 2: here because he reportedly was suffering from the flu late

296
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 2: in the week. Was taken ivs on Thursday and Friday

297
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 2: to try to get hydrated and ready for the game.

298
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 2: But quietly, the Broncos have won two in a row

299
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 2: here going into their by before they come to Buffalo

300
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 2: in week eleven Monday night on a Monday night. So

301
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 2: you know, you talk about how it's a week to

302
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 2: week league. If you think about this Broncos team in

303
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 2: Week four, the Bills beat them in a walk. The

304
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 2: Week four version of the Denver Broncos, They're gonna be

305
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 2: playing the Week eleven version of the Denver Broncos, which

306
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 2: is gonna be a much different football team.

307
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 4: Yep.

308
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 2: So that's unfortunate. And then you've got the Cincinnati Bengals

309
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 2: Maddie who couldn't beat a division opponent if their life

310
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 2: depended on in the first month of the season with

311
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 2: a very limited in mobility, Joe Burrow coming off his

312
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: calf injury, and now what do we see? It looks

313
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 2: like the Bengals have completely rounded back into playoff form.

314
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 2: Burrow near perfect yesterday twenty eight to thirty two for

315
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 2: two eighty three and three touchdowns as Cincinnati won at

316
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 2: San Francisco thirty one seven team rock Party for the

317
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 2: Niners through a pair of interceptions. San Francisco gave up

318
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 2: a season high thirty one points, and the Niners, who

319
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 2: started the season five to oher have now lost three straight.

320
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody would have picked that to happen

321
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 2: three weeks ago.

322
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 4: Forty nine Ers Bills have the same record.

323
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 3: Bronc Party is not looking like the Brock Party who

324
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 3: started this season.

325
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 4: But it's not all on Brock Party.

326
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 3: The defense has allowed quite a few points in the

327
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 3: last two games, and of course the Bengals are figuring

328
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 3: it out right as they are going to face the

329
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 3: Bills in week nine. You know, I joked about this

330
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 3: happening a couple weeks ago, and here we are in

331
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 3: week nine. The Bengals finally score thirty one points. Joe

332
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 3: Burrow looks like himself. Jamar Chase has one hundred yard game.

333
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 3: Joe Mixon has eighty seven rushing yards, and a touchdown,

334
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 3: and it looks like they've figured it out, which is

335
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 3: kind of what they did last year.

336
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 4: Started off slow and then we're able to figure out.

337
00:16:58,240 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 2: I think they had a three game losing streak at

338
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 2: one point point last year and figured it out, and

339
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 2: I think we were all kind of confident that they

340
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 2: would eventually round into form. I was just hoping it

341
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 2: would take place after they played the Bills, but that

342
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 2: apparently is not going to happen. The good news is

343
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 2: that the Bills and their coaching staff anyway, had three

344
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,199
Speaker 2: extra days to prep for the Bengals, so hopefully that

345
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,679
Speaker 2: makes somewhat of a difference going into that one huge

346
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 2: game on Sunday Night. Another team that very quietly has

347
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 2: now won five in a row, Mattie the Jacksonville Jaguars

348
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 2: twenty to ten over Pittsburgh. Now Kenny Pickett, starting quarterback

349
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 2: for the Steelers, left with a rib injury and did

350
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 2: not return. They also lost Minka Fitzpatrick to a hamstring

351
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 2: injury in that game, and Mitchell Trubisky Mitchie Biscuits did

352
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,919
Speaker 2: not look good. He had two interceptions I think in

353
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 2: the second half, and it was ugly.

354
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, finishes with a fifty one passer rating, and.

355
00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 2: Their offense has been a slaw all season long. They've

356
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 2: been The Steelers fans have been calling for the firing

357
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,679
Speaker 2: of their offensive coordinator since about Week three, and it

358
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 2: hasn't it hasn't quieted in light of how they have played.

359
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 2: So Steelers are.

360
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:14,919
Speaker 5: Not.

361
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 2: Really it's amazing their head is above water. I think

362
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 2: they're four and three, yep is that is stunning to me.

363
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,440
Speaker 2: Even more stunning is right now and this will just

364
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 2: this will go to show you just how messed up

365
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 2: the Bengals were at the beginning of the year. They

366
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 2: are still outside the playoff picture at four and three

367
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 2: because they don't have any tie breakers with any of

368
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 2: their division opponents. The last three playoff seeds are Buffalo

369
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 2: at five, Pittsburgh at six, Cleveland at seven. So basically Pittsburgh, Cleveland,

370
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 2: and Cincinnati all four and three and all in the

371
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,879
Speaker 2: same division. In Baltimore six and two, and you know,

372
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 2: a game and a half clear. So it you want

373
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,439
Speaker 2: to you think the AFC East has jumbled or tightly packed,

374
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 2: go look at the AFC North. Holy cow. So it's

375
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 2: a jumble right now, it really is. I mean, you've

376
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 2: got four teams that are six and two, and those

377
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 2: are essentially your division leaders for all four AFC divisions.

378
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 2: And then after that, the Bills are the only five

379
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 2: and three team because they haven't had a buy yet.

380
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 2: And then you got four teams that are four and three,

381
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 2: three of whom are in the AFC North. And then

382
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 2: you got three more teams that are three and four,

383
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: and two more teams that are three and five. So

384
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 2: you want to talk about tight and packed the AFC

385
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 2: we knew would be loaded with talent, It unquestionably is.

386
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 2: And I think these overall records are kind of reflecting

387
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 2: it right now. So nobody's really out of it, I mean,

388
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,639
Speaker 2: except I mean you want to argue New England at

389
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 2: two and six, I'll listen to that, because I don't

390
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 2: think they're going anywhere anyway in terms of making a

391
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 2: run at it. They're just not equipped and they are

392
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 2: Coulp lost their best receiver for the season and Kendrick

393
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 2: Bourne who's done with an ACL, so not looking good

394
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 2: for them. Other injury news to pass along. The Vikings

395
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 2: win listen, so Maddie, listen to this. Minnesota starts the

396
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 2: season one and four. They win yesterday over the Packers

397
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,399
Speaker 2: there even at four and four. They've won three straight,

398
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,680
Speaker 2: but they lose Kirk Cousins for the season. Two an achilles.

399
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 2: Second quarterback lost to an Achilles this year, Aaron Rodgers

400
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,400
Speaker 2: obviously being the other one.

401
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 4: That is just tough to see.

402
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 2: Man, terrible, absolutely terrible, And he knew right away. He's

403
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 2: holding his leg up, like what's going on here?

404
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,679
Speaker 3: So it's just not good getting an MRI today to

405
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 3: confirm what people fear.

406
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,960
Speaker 2: But it seems like it's pretty much a lock that

407
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 2: it's an Achilles for him and his year is over.

408
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 2: And the scariest thing for them, Maddie, their backup is

409
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 2: rookie fifth round pick jarn Hall. That's their backup.

410
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 3: And you wonder what trade deadline looming tomorrow, what some

411
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 3: of these teams might do. Who could be in need

412
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 3: of a quarterback for the rest of the season.

413
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 2: Right And I don't know, do the Vikings try to

414
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,719
Speaker 2: trade for somebody that's a veteran to learn the system

415
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 2: thinking they can make a playoff run. I don't know.

416
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 3: That's a yeah, that's the point right there. Do you

417
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 3: think you can do it or do you just hang

418
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 3: out with the guy you got?

419
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 2: I think they're more likely to just try to grab

420
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:37,239
Speaker 2: a veteran to back up haul in the interim and

421
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,360
Speaker 2: then maybe look around and maybe if they can even

422
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 2: find a third QB that they can get for nothing,

423
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 2: say hey, you want to flip them to us, and

424
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 2: we'll give you a conditional seventh. You know, Oh, Nick

425
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,160
Speaker 2: Mullins is on the roster too, That's right. I forgot

426
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 2: about that. So Nick Mullins is the veteran backup, so

427
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 2: they already have that guy. So at four and four,

428
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 2: I just don't think you can justify giving up pass

429
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 2: sets to try to bring somebody in and hope they

430
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 2: can learn fast and be better than Jaron Hall. So

431
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 2: they may just have to play out the string and

432
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 2: hope for the best. In the AFC North. The other

433
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 2: kind of uplifting news, rookie quarterback Will Levis in Tennessee

434
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 2: Maddie Wow. First start, four touchdown passes, the Titans score

435
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,199
Speaker 2: twenty eight points, the most they've scored all season, and

436
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 2: beat Atlanta. Just unbelievable performance by Will Levis in his

437
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,880
Speaker 2: first career start. He's gonna get the start next week

438
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 2: because Tannehill still isn't ready, or at least that's the

439
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 2: general consensus as to how it's going to play out. Meanwhile,

440
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 2: on the other side, Des been rid Of, the starting

441
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 2: quarterback for Atlanta, got benched. Yeah for Taylor Heineke, so unbelievable, Like,

442
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 2: I don't know if anybody had that one, but he

443
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 2: played a great game. Gotta tip your hat to the kid.

444
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, d hop had three touchdowns. That connection looked good.

445
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 4: I was watching part of it.

446
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 2: His biggest game of the season, right Hopkins.

447
00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:59,199
Speaker 3: It was like, Oh, it looks like you guys have

448
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 3: played together for a while. The connection between those two

449
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 3: looked nice. It looked like there's some life in the

450
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 3: Tennessee Titans offense. And Derek Henry had had one hundred

451
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 3: rushing yards. He didn't have any touchdowns, but I was like,

452
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 3: three and four, Now, what are you gonna do? Will

453
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 3: Levis can they can? He kind of resurrect something within

454
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 3: this team.

455
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 2: So that is around the NFL. Presented by Kalida Health.

456
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:26,360
Speaker 2: Topic of discussion for you today concerns the Bill's division.

457
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 2: You just watched a whole bunch of AFC East football

458
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 2: yesterday and AFC football for that matter. So following Week

459
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,600
Speaker 2: eight in the NFL, how do you project the AFC

460
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 2: East to play out the rest of the way. Here

461
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,439
Speaker 2: eight h three oh five point fifty one eighty eight,

462
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:45,360
Speaker 2: five point fifty two, five fifty the number to get

463
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 2: on board. We got some other stuff in store for

464
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 2: you today, including Eric Wood, who's going to join us

465
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 2: an hour number three. But as you know, Dolphins atop

466
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 2: the division at six and two, Bills at five and three,

467
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 2: Jets right behind at four and three, with the head

468
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 2: to head tiebreaker on Buffalo, and the Patriots at two

469
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,920
Speaker 2: and six. How do you see this division playing out

470
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 2: the rest of the way? Open lines for you at

471
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 2: eight h three zero five fifty one eight eight five

472
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 2: fifty two, five fifty the numbers to get on board.

473
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 2: But let's go to the phones, and we're gonna lead

474
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 2: off with John in Massachusetts. What do you got for us? John,

475
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 2: You're on one Bill's Live.

476
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 6: Hey, I just wanted to talk about the defense a

477
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 6: little bit more, particularly the cornerbacks. Sure, I thought, uh,

478
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 6: and it was just you know, watching it on TV,

479
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 6: I thought Benford and Dan Jackson just played, you know,

480
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 6: much better, like a much better game, or maybe it

481
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 6: was the game plan. They were right up on the

482
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 6: receivers like jamming him at the line. You could just

483
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 6: kind of tell that they were like flying around a

484
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 6: little bit more. Maybe that was the defense as well,

485
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 6: And I don't know, maybe it's part has to be

486
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 6: with like Allen had a much better game and he's

487
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 6: kind of uplifting the defense or whatever. I just thought

488
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 6: the game plan for the defense was a lot better

489
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 6: against the Bucks than it was against the Pats.

490
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 7: H And.

491
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,439
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's all I just thought. And moving forward, I

492
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 6: hope that they play that way. Like, I think they

493
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 6: really have to to do that if they want to

494
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 6: move forward against uh, you know, future opponents like like

495
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 6: the Bengals this week. I think they have to kind

496
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 6: of jam their receivers and that's how they got to

497
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,919
Speaker 6: play to win. I'm not worried about the offense. I

498
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 6: think they'll end up figuring that out. But defensively, this

499
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 6: team has definitely struggled at times, you know, in big

500
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 6: playoff games like against Chiefs and the last year against

501
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 6: the Bengals. So I think defensively, if we can kind

502
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 6: of you know, fly around a bit more, be a

503
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 6: little more physical, that could take us from you know

504
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 6: being a first or second round exit to maybe Super Bowl.

505
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 6: So I'll laying up and thank you guys.

506
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 2: All right, thanks John. What do you think of that? Manny?

507
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 2: How did you think the two corners played last week

508
00:25:58,760 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 2: in Tampa?

509
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 3: I mean the team as a whole defense allowed eighteen points.

510
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 3: They allowed two or twenty four passing yards two passing touchdowns.

511
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 3: But I would agree with that. I think they did

512
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:16,239
Speaker 3: a good job at shutting guys down. Evans only had

513
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,879
Speaker 3: thirty nine receiving yards. Godwin had fifty four receiving yards.

514
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 3: They each had a receiving touchdown. But those are two

515
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,200
Speaker 3: players that could break off and have big games because

516
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 3: they are two good receivers. So it was nice to

517
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 3: see them limit guys like that. And you think about

518
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 3: going into a game against the Bengals and the receivers

519
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 3: that they have, and the fact that, oh, if you

520
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 3: want to shut down Jamar Chase, well they have Tyler

521
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 3: Boyd and t Higgins. It's not just one guy that

522
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 3: you have to worry about. You have to worry about

523
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 3: more than one. Buccaneers had a couple guys that you

524
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 3: have to worry about. But you wonder what Christian Benford

525
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 3: and what Dane Jackson are going to do against a

526
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 3: Bengals team that this team lost to in the playoffs

527
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 3: last year and had a hard time with. This team

528
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 3: has done in the past, has done a good job

529
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 3: with shutting down players like Tyreek Hill. They have done

530
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 3: this not just this season, but seasons before as well,

531
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 3: so I believe they're capable of doing so. But having

532
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 3: a nice tune up against the Bucks where you were

533
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 3: able to limit some of their better wide receivers, I

534
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 3: think is good news for what's to come.

535
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, they and they did get up in the face

536
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 2: of the receivers a little bit more. They were physical

537
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 2: with them. I'm not going to have the breakdown of

538
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 2: man to his own calls by head coach Sean McDermott

539
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 2: from last week's game, but I felt similarly John that

540
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 2: they were more physical. They did jam at the line

541
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 2: of scrimmage more and played a little more press I

542
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 2: like the fact that they were able to render Mike

543
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,680
Speaker 2: Evans a non factor until the later stages of that game.

544
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 2: And he catches a touchdown pass because the ball skims

545
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 2: off Christian benfords hellman and right into his hands. I

546
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 2: don't think that's a completion if it doesn't hit Benford's helmet.

547
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 2: It literally ricocheted into to Mike Evans hands because the

548
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 2: pass was a little off the mark to the left

549
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:06,199
Speaker 2: in my opinion. And then Godwin, while he was active

550
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 2: in the game, he didn't have any I mean, he

551
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 2: had the thirty one yard catch, that was it, and

552
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 2: I mean he had what is that thirteen yard or

553
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 2: twenty one yards or twenty three yards on the rest

554
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 2: of his own four other catches. So it was a

555
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 2: lot of underneath stuff, check down stuff because Buffalo's pass

556
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 2: rush was getting home. And the reason that was happening

557
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 2: was because the offense put points on the board early

558
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 2: and forced Tampa to throw. And that's the formula going forward.

559
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 2: Buffalo asked to get on the scoreboard early and get

560
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 2: ahead so that the best part and the healthiest part

561
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 2: of Buffalo's defense can be productive, and that's their pass rush,

562
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 2: because that's arguably the healthiest part of their defensive unit

563
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 2: right now. I'm curious to see how the assignments are

564
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 2: going to be dished out for the corners for the

565
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 2: Bills this week in terms of whether they travel with

566
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 2: specific players or just play aside. You know, they've been

567
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 2: played playing boundary and field side. Benford and Jackson have

568
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 2: I wonder if that continues. Let's go back to the

569
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 2: phones and to Dan in Rochester. What do you got

570
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 2: for us?

571
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 8: Dan?

572
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 2: You're on one Bills live Hi.

573
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 9: Chris and Maddy?

574
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 10: Hey Chris, how you doing?

575
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 5: Chris?

576
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 8: Right the afternoon, I think Maddy asked, I answered my question.

577
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 8: How do you think the bear the Bills are gonna

578
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 8: bear against Cincinnati?

579
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,479
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think it's gonna be a tough game. I

580
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 2: do because I think Cincinnati's playing probably some of their

581
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 2: best football all season now that they're healthy. Because it

582
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 2: wasn't just Burrow. Higgins had a rib a fractured ribs

583
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 2: trying to play through and he was dealing with that.

584
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 2: I saw Trey Hendrickson did have an ankle problem, one

585
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 2: of their best pass rushers. He came out of the

586
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 2: game in the second quarter, but he came back in

587
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 2: the game. It didn't look like he had a problem.

588
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 2: He was all over Rock Purdy. He had a pressure

589
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 2: rate of over thirty four percent all by.

590
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 4: Himself sacks so far this season.

591
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 2: And he had another one in Sunday's game against the Niners.

592
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 2: So it's a heavyweight matchup. I don't think there's any

593
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 2: debate about that, and the Bengals have had Buffalo's number.

594
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 2: So you say, what's the biggest difference. The biggest difference

595
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 2: is Sean McDermott's calling the defense now and all that

596
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 2: criticism we saw at the end of last season when

597
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 2: people are saying Buffalo's defense was too passive against the

598
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 2: Bengals passing game and it was too easy, it was

599
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 2: pitch and catch. Something tells me it's going to be

600
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 2: dramatically different this time around in terms of Bengals offense,

601
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 2: Bill's defense. But we'll have to see on Sunday night

602
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 2: later this week. Got to take a break here, but

00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 2: point fifty Bills are a game back of the Dolphins

626
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 2: at six and two, Bills at five and three, and

627
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 2: they have the head to head on Miami right now.

628
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 2: They don't have it on the Jets, who are only

629
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 2: a half game back after winning that horrible game yesterday

630
00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 2: that took us back to like nineteen seventy three in

631
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 2: overtime beating the Giants, improbably somehow, some way, uh just

632
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 2: crazy thirteen to ten. Was that the final more punts

633
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 2: than points in that game twenty four punts twenty three

634
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 2: total points. Amazing And the Patriots are in the cellar,

635
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 2: which I think is where everybody expects them to become

636
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 2: the end of the season. Just lost Kendrick Born for

637
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 2: the year to an ACL So things not going right

638
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 2: in New England either. But you let us know, aight

639
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 2: oh three five point fifty one eighty eight five fifty two,

640
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 2: five fifty got an open line for you there. How

641
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 2: do you project the AFC East to play out the

642
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 2: rest of the way? And we go back to the

643
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 2: phones and to Mark in East Amherst. What do you

644
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 2: got for us? Mark?

645
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 10: Hey, median Chris, I hope you're doing well.

646
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 11: Getting back to that Giant Jet game. I just minded

647
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 11: your take on something in regulation. Towards the end of

648
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 11: the game. It's fourth and one. The Giant defense was

649
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 11: playing super low and the kicker already missed the kicks,

650
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 11: and I'm thinking scenario, if they don't make it, it

651
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 11: takes a few more seconds off the clock and the

652
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 11: Jet step to drives to win that game. The other

653
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 11: thing is if they mixed the fourth and one, the

654
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 11: game's over. So in my opinion, if it was up

655
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 11: to me, I would have definitely went for it on

656
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,239
Speaker 11: fourth and one, and I just wanted to see how

657
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 11: you guys think about that. What'd you think about that?

658
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were talking about that after the game. There

659
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 2: is there. That's another argument that you could have, and

660
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 2: you'd have a leg to stand on in my opinion too,

661
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 2: especially knowing to your point Mark that Gano missed the

662
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 2: first kick, and I had seen reports, at least on

663
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 2: social media that he was not one hundred percent healthy,

664
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 2: So you've got an injured kicker. Now, I understand the

665
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 2: merits behind trying to kick a field goal, which I

666
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 2: think was only thirty five thirty six years. There's thirty

667
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 2: five yard attempt, which is basically two yards longer than

668
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,719
Speaker 2: an extra point. I understand that, and he's certainly got

669
00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 2: the leg for it, but he did miss one earlier

670
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 2: in the game. And if you get a yard with

671
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley, the game's over essentially, so one yard to

672
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 2: end the game or a field goal kick to put

673
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 2: the game out of reach, because let's be honest, it

674
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 2: was pretty much a field goal game back and forth

675
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 2: the entire day. So even if you give up a

676
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 2: field goal on a drive by the Jets, you don't lose.

677
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 2: You win by three. So I think there's merits for

678
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 2: trying to get the points, but yeah, you want to

679
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 2: just get a yard and close it out. You could

680
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 2: have done that too.

681
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:36,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, twenty eight seconds left, you were on the twenty

682
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 3: six six seventeen.

683
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 2: Yards seventeen Yeah, there insight.

684
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:44,439
Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean that's that's a decision that after

685
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 3: this game, the way it played out with a loss,

686
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 3: you look back and you probably say, hmm, maybe if

687
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,880
Speaker 3: we're in a scenario like this again, maybe we decide

688
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,279
Speaker 3: to go for it on fourth and one, especially if

689
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 3: you have a game where your field goal kicker has

690
00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,359
Speaker 3: missed one already and you have the lead.

691
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're up ten to seven, so and your defense

692
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 2: had been playing lights out to that point because the

693
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 2: Jets offensive line was a mess. They lost two centers

694
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 2: in the game, so it was a disaster up front

695
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 2: for them, and they were getting manhandled by that Giants

696
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 2: defensive front. So there is absolutely an argument for going

697
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 2: forward on fourth and one. Yes, So I would agree

698
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 2: with you, Mark, I think you if you wanted to

699
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 2: do that, I don't think it would have caused much

700
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 2: of an uproar among the fan base even if you

701
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 2: didn't get it, because then it's a turnover on downs

702
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 2: and you're talking twenty four five seconds left to go

703
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 2: eighty three yards. Yeap, With the way that game was going.

704
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 4: On offense, I don't think so.

705
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 2: I don't think that would have happened, at least not

706
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 2: for a touchdown. Maybe you get lucky and you're in

707
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:58,720
Speaker 2: field goal range to kick it and force overtime. Maybe maybe,

708
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,920
Speaker 2: because that is ultimately what they did after the missfield goal.

709
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,359
Speaker 2: The difference is they got the ball at the point

710
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,439
Speaker 2: of the kick, which was the twenty six yard line,

711
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 2: so big difference. It's an extra first down less you

712
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 2: got to get and then they had two pass plays

713
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:16,399
Speaker 2: right twenty nine yards and twenty nine yards and bang

714
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 2: they were in field goal range and tied the game

715
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 2: up after the missfield goal. So yeah, it's like Steve

716
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 2: always says, if you did something and it didn't work,

717
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 2: you should have done the other thing. That's how fans

718
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,360
Speaker 2: are going to be when their armchair quarterback and on Monday,

719
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 2: and I can't imagine what the talk shows are like

720
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 2: in New York today after that game. I don't think

721
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 2: either teams fans are happy with the way that thing unfolded.

722
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 4: That would have been interesting postgame Showtle listening on.

723
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,799
Speaker 2: Oh, especially the Giants one, but I think the Jets

724
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 2: one would have had their share of criticism as well

725
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 2: in light of how that game played out. But we

726
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 2: want to know how you think the AFC East is

727
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 2: going to play out the rest of the season. Eighth three,

728
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:04,839
Speaker 2: five fifty one, eight eight five fifty two, five point fifty.

729
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 2: As you know, the Dolphins are in first place, a

730
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 2: game ahead of Buffalo, and the Bills are right behind,

731
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 2: followed by the Jets. So those three teams, I think

732
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 2: you can argue, are all still very much in the mix.

733
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 2: Jets might be doing it a little bit with smoke

734
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 2: and mirrors, but you know, I think what also has

735
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 2: to be examined is the state of the respective schedules,

736
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 2: right what I was doing for each of these teams

737
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:30,800
Speaker 2: the rest of the way. So which team are you

738
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,680
Speaker 2: looking at right now, man, to see what they have

739
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 2: still on the docket.

740
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 4: I've got the Patriots up right now.

741
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 2: Okay, So I was going to take a look at

742
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:45,319
Speaker 2: Miami because the Jets, their schedule isn't nearly as bad

743
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 2: as it was on the front end in terms of

744
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 2: caliber of opponents, because they do have Kansas City this

745
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 2: coming week, that's no easy task, so you're hoping that

746
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,319
Speaker 2: that is a loss for Miami. This week it's at

747
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,360
Speaker 2: Kansas City and the Chiefs are coming off a loss.

748
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 2: So at Arrowhead, Chiefs a little ornery after playing a

749
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 2: lousy game last week in their division, that's a tough one.

750
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 2: Then they've got to buy Raiders at home. That should

751
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 2: be a win. At the Jets, that could be tough.

752
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 2: Knowing the Jets defense is pretty dang good in their

753
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 2: top two corners are back healthy now after being in

754
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 2: concussion protocol at Washington. Based on how the Bills played him,

755
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 2: you wouldn't expect much of a fight there, but who knows.

756
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 4: They kept it close with the Eagles yesterday.

757
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 2: Is Tennessee a different team with Will Levis at quarterback.

758
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 2: They get them the next week, then Jets again, and

759
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,240
Speaker 2: then they got Dallas at home. That's not easy against

760
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 2: that Dallas defense. Baltimore on the road, and then the

761
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 2: Bills obviously in week eighteen. So the roadie at Baltimore,

762
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,359
Speaker 2: the road game at the Jets, and the road game

763
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 2: at Kansas City all difficult games. So it's gonna be

764
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 2: interesting to see where the there's three trip ups there

765
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 2: for the Dolphins. I think do you think there are more?

766
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 2: I mean, there's always more. Dallas is not an easy

767
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:14,800
Speaker 2: game either, so that might be another.

768
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 4: Travels is a harder game too.

769
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 2: I mean they get him in Miami, but still, what's

770
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 2: that Christmas Eve? Wow? Christmas Eve game Dallas and Miami.

771
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 4: And they got to play the Chiefs in Germany.

772
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 2: That's right, it's in Germany. I forgot about that. So

773
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 2: it's not at Arrowhead. No, they might get a break

774
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 2: on that. Although the travel is not fun.

775
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 4: It'll be interesting to see. I mean, yeah, that's the

776
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 4: went this year.

777
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,479
Speaker 2: I forgot it was in Germany for that one. Ooh,

778
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 2: how's that gonna go? Yeah?

779
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 3: Okay, so you take home field advantage out of it,

780
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 3: all right, you have? So I have the Jets schedule

781
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 3: up right now. This upcoming week, Week nine, they are

782
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 3: facing the Chargers.

783
00:39:58,239 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 4: It's gonna be a home game.

784
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:06,320
Speaker 3: Then they go to the Raiders, then Bill's Dolphins, Falcons, Texans,

785
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 3: see the Dolphins again. Then you got the Commanders, the Browns,

786
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 3: and the Patriots.

787
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 4: Right, So not the toughest, but you do have a

788
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 4: few in there. You got a few in there.

789
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 2: The Jets schedule was a bear at the front end

790
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,879
Speaker 2: because they had Buffalo, Dallas, New England, which always gives

791
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:27,760
Speaker 2: them problems, and then Kansas City, followed by Denver and Philly,

792
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:30,839
Speaker 2: so that the first six were.

793
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:32,840
Speaker 4: Which they had three straight losses, and.

794
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 2: They got out of there at three and three without

795
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:40,359
Speaker 2: their quarterback. Like that's a that's a victory as far

796
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 2: as I'm concerned. So it does lighten up for them.

797
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:49,240
Speaker 2: I mean, they still have to battle Buffalo and Miami twice,

798
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 2: so that's not easy.

799
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,279
Speaker 3: And closing the season out against the Patriots or the

800
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 3: regular season, I should say.

801
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 2: I mean, the Chargers are the only other high flying

802
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:01,359
Speaker 2: offense they got to worry about. Yeah, and they get

803
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 2: him at home. So Jets' schedule is pretty favorable all

804
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,800
Speaker 2: things considered. Cleveland's got a plucky defense, but by week seventeen,

805
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,919
Speaker 2: the Browns may not care. They are four and three,

806
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 2: and it's due mainly to their defense.

807
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,719
Speaker 3: But I also wonder if the Jets look out a

808
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 3: schedule like this and they factor in Aaron Rodgers' return

809
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:26,799
Speaker 3: occurording to what.

810
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 4: The schedule looks like, Look, can we wait? Can we wait?

811
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,239
Speaker 4: Are we gonna make a playoff run? If so, let's

812
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 4: hold on.

813
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 2: I know, Aaron Rodgers thinks he's superhuman, and look, if

814
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 2: he can pull it off, I'll be impressed. But man,

815
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 2: that to me. I know, maybe you can shorten the

816
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 2: timeline with that new advanced procedure for an achilles, But

817
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 2: for a forty year old guy, I think that's a

818
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 2: lot to ask. I really think it's gonna be miraculous

819
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 2: if he is fit to play by the wild card

820
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 2: round to the playoffs, which is, you know, in January,

821
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,800
Speaker 2: as we know mid January, because the last game in

822
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 2: the regular season is like January seventh weekend, yep. But

823
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 2: I would say it's it's fair to say the Jets

824
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 2: certainly have an easier schedule than Buffalo or Miami the

825
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 2: rest of the way, which is gonna make things pretty interesting.

826
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 2: But you let us know what you think. At three

827
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 2: five fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two five

828
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 2: point fifty, how do you see the AFC East playing

829
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,560
Speaker 2: out the rest of the way? After watching a ton

Speaker 2: last year, right, like the hands only Have you done

843
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:25,439
Speaker 2: the hands only?

844
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:25,680
Speaker 7: No?

845
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:26,239
Speaker 3: I have not.

846
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 2: Okay, I was four. I couldn't do it here because

847
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 2: I had a conflict. I think when we had it

848
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,319
Speaker 2: done here we were at the combine last year's that's why.

849
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:35,800
Speaker 12: We didn't do it.

850
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 4: There was something going on.

851
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:40,319
Speaker 2: Well, and then they were they were doing they were

852
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 2: doing one in my hometown, like just at the local

853
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 2: ambulance center, and I was like, it's only gonna take

854
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,840
Speaker 2: a half hour. I'm just gonna shoot over there. It's easy, pasy.

855
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:51,360
Speaker 2: So if you got a chance to do it, go

856
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:54,319
Speaker 2: do it. It only takes thirty minutes and you'll learn

857
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 2: how to do hands only CPR in a snap, and

858
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:02,360
Speaker 2: it's it's pretty easy, especially if you know you're somebody

859
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 2: that's you know, maybe not a medical professional and you

860
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,400
Speaker 2: don't know about, you know, putting your mouth on somebody

861
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 2: and doing the breaths and all of that stuff. This

862
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,280
Speaker 2: is a good alternative to learn how to do should

863
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 2: something happen where you have to step in and take action.

864
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 2: So equip yourself and make yourself ready. We are talking

865
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 2: about the AFC East and how you think it is

866
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,759
Speaker 2: going to turn out, and we're going to go to

867
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,799
Speaker 2: the tweet sheet in terms of getting some commentary from

868
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,799
Speaker 2: you on what you think the AFC East is going

869
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 2: to do for the last nine games of the regular season.

870
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 2: Drew and the tweet sheet incidentally brought to you by

871
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 2: Corrigan Moving Systems, the official equipment moving company of the

872
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,919
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills. Drew leads this off and says, I don't

873
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 2: expect this division to be won by any team with

874
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:53,279
Speaker 2: more than ten wins, and I've got the Bills winning it.

875
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,719
Speaker 2: It's a tough schedule and a tough division, but they

876
00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 2: should get it done. Yeah, I tell you what. I'll

877
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 2: tell you one thing. I'll feel a whole lot better

878
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 2: if ten wins is enough to get the division title

879
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,840
Speaker 2: because Buffalo at five and three would certainly have a

880
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 2: lot more margin for error. Because we've seen some people,

881
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,000
Speaker 2: I've just seen some people on social media that are

882
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 2: genuinely concerned. They're like, oh my gosh, does this mean

883
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,239
Speaker 2: the Bills have to win six of their last nine

884
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,360
Speaker 2: with that schedule. I don't know if they can do that,

885
00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:25,319
Speaker 2: and blah blah blah. I don't know. Maybe I'm kind

886
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:29,960
Speaker 2: of thinking eleven and six might be the low bar

887
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 2: line to win the division.

888
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 3: That's what the Bills finished within twenty twenty one. They

889
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:38,200
Speaker 3: were eleven and six, that's right, And.

890
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:41,520
Speaker 2: That's when they had some unfortunate losses also to Jacksonville

891
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:47,439
Speaker 2: and Tennessee. And the Tennessee loss cost them home field advantage. Yeah,

892
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,400
Speaker 2: because Tennessee got home field advantage throughout the playoffs because

893
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:53,399
Speaker 2: of that one game that was a big swing game.

894
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,120
Speaker 2: That's the game where Josh slipped on the fourth and

895
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,400
Speaker 2: goal at the end and they lost thirty four to

896
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:03,320
Speaker 2: thirty one, and that basically determined that Tennessee at home field.

897
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,040
Speaker 2: But then they lost to Baltimore and we're out, and

898
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,720
Speaker 2: then Kansas City locked into get a home field advantage

899
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 2: yet again with being the second seed. So yeah, I

900
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:19,640
Speaker 2: kind I'm kind of thinking I agree with Drew's premise

901
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:21,800
Speaker 2: that a lot of these teams are going to be

902
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:29,080
Speaker 2: beat up on each other and it's gonna or even thirteen. Yeah,

903
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 2: maybe there's a way Miami could flirt with twelve if

904
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,319
Speaker 2: you know, they get hot and go on a roll.

905
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,040
Speaker 2: I don't want that to happen.

906
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 4: And they still got to see that they have some tough.

907
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 2: Games left, as we just saw in the last segment.

908
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,360
Speaker 2: But boy, ten and seven, if that wins it, I

909
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 2: gotta believe there's gonna be tie breakers involved if that happened.

910
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:53,840
Speaker 2: Yeou so, you know, So it's an interesting way to

911
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:54,320
Speaker 2: think about it.

912
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:54,600
Speaker 12: Drew.

913
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,280
Speaker 2: For some something's telling me though, it's gonna take eleven.

914
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 2: But I don't think you're far off. Ron on tweets

915
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 2: Sheet says it's going to be a battle all season

916
00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,240
Speaker 2: and because of the competition and the division, but because

917
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 2: we don't know how the Bills will perform on a

918
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,319
Speaker 2: week to week basis, they could earn the number one

919
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,319
Speaker 2: seed or they could barely get in as the six

920
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,919
Speaker 2: or seven. That's the thing that I think scares Bills

921
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 2: fans the most Maddie the variants in play from week

922
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:19,680
Speaker 2: to week. I think we all want to believe that

923
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,239
Speaker 2: the offense has a handle on what they're doing now

924
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,080
Speaker 2: after their performance at least through the first three quarters

925
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:29,879
Speaker 2: against Tampa, but with the topsy turvy nature of their play,

926
00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:33,080
Speaker 2: because what is that now They've traded wins and losses

927
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,920
Speaker 2: each of the last five weeks, which speaks to the

928
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,400
Speaker 2: variants in play that they've had. That's a concern.

929
00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 3: And I go back to the twenty twenty one season

930
00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,440
Speaker 3: again here, and I know this team is different than

931
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 3: when they were in twenty twenty one. I know they're older.

932
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 3: There's more veterans on this team. The veterans that were

933
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 3: veterans in twenty twenty one are even bigger roles within

934
00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:59,520
Speaker 3: this team. Have have bigger leadership roles within this team.

935
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,399
Speaker 3: That team in twenty twenty one went back and forth

936
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 3: win wins and losses in the second half of the season,

937
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 3: and then finally figured it out in the second half

938
00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:11,239
Speaker 3: of the Bucks game.

939
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,439
Speaker 4: It was a loss and overtime loss.

940
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,759
Speaker 2: Yes, we felled to seven and six losing that game, but.

941
00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:20,799
Speaker 3: Then they won four straight and were able to make

942
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,799
Speaker 3: a run in the playoffs now play they were playing

943
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,280
Speaker 3: their best football and it was and that we talked

944
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,279
Speaker 3: a lot about not peaking too early, not peaking too early,

945
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:32,520
Speaker 3: and they I remember thinking, you are peaking at the

946
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:35,960
Speaker 3: perfect time the final four weeks in the season. And

947
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:39,400
Speaker 3: then that was the game against the Chiefs that they lost,

948
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:43,240
Speaker 3: and people say one of the best games ever played

949
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:47,080
Speaker 3: because there was scoring and scoring and scoring, and hard.

950
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:48,920
Speaker 2: For Bills fans to call it that because they didn't win.

951
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:49,479
Speaker 5: Yeah.

952
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,799
Speaker 2: Uh, It's just like back after Super Bowl twenty five,

953
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 2: a lot of people were saying it was the greatest

954
00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,759
Speaker 2: super Bowl that had been played up to that point,

955
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 2: and Bill's fans are like, yeah, I'm not here for that.

956
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 4: I'm not here for that, yep. So I don't I

957
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:10,920
Speaker 4: say that to say it's it's wins and losses here

958
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:12,920
Speaker 4: right now. But I believe this team is is.

959
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 3: Older and wiser in the way they go about their

960
00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:20,839
Speaker 3: business and in the connections that they have with each other,

961
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:24,200
Speaker 3: that they will be able to course correct because we

962
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:26,719
Speaker 3: know this coaching staff and this team has done a

963
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,280
Speaker 3: great job of that in the past, so I believe

964
00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:32,440
Speaker 3: they can do it even more now. Two years older

965
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:34,120
Speaker 3: than when they were in twenty twenty one.

966
00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:37,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, how do you project the afcees to play out

967
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,920
Speaker 2: the rest of the season. Got to watch a lot

968
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:43,560
Speaker 2: of other football yesterday. Maybe you got an opinion on that.

969
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:45,440
Speaker 2: You let us know. Eight h three zero five point

970
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 2: fifty one eight and eight five fifty two five fifty

971
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:50,040
Speaker 2: the number to get on board. But we take a

972
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:52,440
Speaker 2: break here, we're back with more of your phone calls.

973
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,360
Speaker 2: We've also got the Maddie Awards coming up, which we

974
00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,440
Speaker 2: never got to on Friday after Thursday's game. We were

975
00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:00,880
Speaker 2: a little jam packed on Friday. We knew Maddy be

976
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:04,040
Speaker 2: here Monday, so we'll roll them out when we return

977
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 2: here on One Bill's Live presented by Colida Health. It's

978
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:07,480
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bill's Radio.

979
00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:56,839
Speaker 1: This this One Bill's Live presented by Calida Health.

980
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,720
Speaker 2: All right, welcome to our number two here on a Monday.

981
00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 2: Chris Brown, Matty glab with you, and it is that time.

982
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,880
Speaker 2: Usually do this the day after a victory, but the

983
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,799
Speaker 2: Thursday night win, we got all discombobulated and we had

984
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:13,360
Speaker 2: a shorter show on Friday. It was only two hours.

985
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,640
Speaker 2: We were jam packed, so we decided, knowing Maddie was

986
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 2: going to be here filling in for Steve today that

987
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:23,000
Speaker 2: we would do the Maddie Awards coming off the win

988
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:24,400
Speaker 2: over the Bucks today.

989
00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:25,239
Speaker 4: Yeah.

990
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:30,120
Speaker 2: The Maddie Awards are presented by Energy Mark, the official

991
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:34,680
Speaker 2: energy supplier to the Buffalo Bills. So you got a

992
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:36,279
Speaker 2: little extra time to prep this one.

993
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:37,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, we had some time.

994
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 3: We have some other awards to give out around the

995
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:42,720
Speaker 3: NFL as well, since we got to watch some games

996
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:46,960
Speaker 3: this weekend. But why not relive a fun Week eight victory.

997
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:51,600
Speaker 3: So first award is going to Domkincaid. Ain't no rook

998
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 3: He did not look like a rookie against the Bucks.

999
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:59,200
Speaker 3: He finished with five catches for sixty five receiving yards

1000
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,719
Speaker 3: and had his first NFL touchdown, which was so fun

1001
00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:04,759
Speaker 3: to see him jump in the crowd and party with

1002
00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,480
Speaker 3: Bill's Mafia for a little bit. He was targeted seven

1003
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:11,320
Speaker 3: times and was aligned all over the place. He was

1004
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:15,440
Speaker 3: aligned tight in the slot, wide, and even in the backfield.

1005
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:19,280
Speaker 3: He played eighty three point eight percent of the offensive snaps,

1006
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:22,399
Speaker 3: which is good for a career high for him. He's

1007
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,800
Speaker 3: gonna have a bigger role the next few weeks with

1008
00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:27,520
Speaker 3: Dawson Knox not being a part of the lineup. Due

1009
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 3: to injury. So you like to see a game like

1010
00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:33,560
Speaker 3: this out of a rookie. I mean, he was up

1011
00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 3: to the challenge, he answered, he was effective, he was

1012
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:40,640
Speaker 3: a difference maker. He's caught a great amount of his targets.

1013
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,239
Speaker 3: His catch percentage has got to be really high. I

1014
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:46,280
Speaker 3: know it ranks up with the top in the NFL.

1015
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,920
Speaker 3: And to have that stat as a rookie, I mean,

1016
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 3: we knew he had great hands coming in to the

1017
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 3: NFL because of what we saw from his college tape,

1018
00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:59,120
Speaker 3: but he is proving that that is true. He's catching

1019
00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 3: balls Josh Allen puts on him and some of the

1020
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 3: catches he had in that game against the Bucks that

1021
00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:07,719
Speaker 3: I think about, that one near the sideline where it

1022
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 3: was like, Wow, this guy looks like he's played a

1023
00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:12,560
Speaker 3: lot of basketball in his life because of the way

1024
00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:14,200
Speaker 3: that he's able to jump up and get a ball

1025
00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:17,839
Speaker 3: and stay inbounds. So I loved what I saw out

1026
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,560
Speaker 3: of him, and it left me wanting to see more

1027
00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,160
Speaker 3: because at this point in the season, we're heading into

1028
00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:26,759
Speaker 3: week nine. He was drafted in the first round by

1029
00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:29,439
Speaker 3: this team, and I think we're all waiting like, Okay,

1030
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 3: what is it going to look like for him, what

1031
00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:33,000
Speaker 3: is it going to look like? And I know it's

1032
00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,640
Speaker 3: been a slow rollout, but let him go now in

1033
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:38,920
Speaker 3: the second half of the season because he's proven that

1034
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:40,399
Speaker 3: he can really help this team out.

1035
00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, thirteen receptions the last two games. He had been

1036
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:47,640
Speaker 2: one of the top three targeted players all along, and

1037
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:49,759
Speaker 2: that was even with missing a game being in the

1038
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:54,920
Speaker 2: concussion protocol. So I don't know why it just if

1039
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:59,320
Speaker 2: the last two weeks feel different, like in more of

1040
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 2: a big play a kind of way.

1041
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was catching those short passes. A lot of

1042
00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:06,359
Speaker 3: the stuff was underneath shorter stuff. So good to see

1043
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,360
Speaker 3: him involved in a little bit more and being aligned everywhere.

1044
00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 3: I mean that speaks to the football IQ that you have,

1045
00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:13,840
Speaker 3: that you can align in several different places.

1046
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:16,680
Speaker 4: All right, next up, L copy time, EL Copy time.

1047
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:20,320
Speaker 3: Josh Allen looked like a captain on Thursday night football.

1048
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,920
Speaker 3: He stays undefeated on Thursday six and Oh, he looked confident,

1049
00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:26,360
Speaker 3: He looked energized, he looked like he was having a

1050
00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:26,960
Speaker 3: great time.

1051
00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:30,600
Speaker 4: He looked like himself out there. He got involved in.

1052
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,120
Speaker 3: The rushing game, which we heard from Ken Dorsey the

1053
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:35,800
Speaker 3: next day and he said, look, Josh Allen is a

1054
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:37,080
Speaker 3: unique player.

1055
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:38,840
Speaker 4: He's great at throwing the football.

1056
00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 3: He's also great when he runs with it in his hands,

1057
00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:43,800
Speaker 3: and we have to get him involved in both of

1058
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 3: those things. And I think you saw the best version

1059
00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:48,920
Speaker 3: of Josh Allen on Thursday Night football because he was

1060
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:52,239
Speaker 3: doing both of those things. And I think this type

1061
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 3: of quarterback, Josh gets into a rhythm when he runs

1062
00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 3: the rock a little bit. He gets into a rhythm

1063
00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,799
Speaker 3: when he starts to feel the defense. And we've heard

1064
00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:01,480
Speaker 3: him say before, you know, I like to take a

1065
00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:03,799
Speaker 3: hit to get into things. He doesn't need to take

1066
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 3: a lot of hits. He did a good job sliding

1067
00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:08,239
Speaker 3: when he was running with the football, and I think

1068
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 3: the coaching staff loved to see that out of him

1069
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,239
Speaker 3: on on Thursday night. He had the quickest time to

1070
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:17,080
Speaker 3: throw in his NFL career, but he did have time

1071
00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:19,120
Speaker 3: in the pocket when he needed it. The offensive line

1072
00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:22,160
Speaker 3: did a great job protecting for him. He completed seventy

1073
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:24,920
Speaker 3: seven and a half percent of his passes. He spread

1074
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:27,439
Speaker 3: the ball around. It was just an all around great

1075
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:29,839
Speaker 3: game by the quarterback. I think a game that we've

1076
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:32,440
Speaker 3: seen him have multiple times. What it was good to

1077
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:35,360
Speaker 3: see him have after this team has gone win loss,

1078
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:37,440
Speaker 3: win loss in the last five weeks.

1079
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:40,800
Speaker 2: All right, Next up is the Slam Dunk Award.

1080
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:45,200
Speaker 3: Slam Dunk to the up tempo offense because it worked.

1081
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:48,680
Speaker 3: I loved seeing the Bills start fast the last few weeks.

1082
00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 3: When this team got into like a two minute drill situation,

1083
00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:54,040
Speaker 3: they were moving the ball well and I love that

1084
00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:57,040
Speaker 3: Ken Dorsey noticed that and then decided to implement it

1085
00:55:57,360 --> 00:55:59,840
Speaker 3: into the first part of this game, knowing that the

1086
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,759
Speaker 3: team was struggling to score in the first half. On

1087
00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,719
Speaker 3: the first drive. Heading into last week's game, they were

1088
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,719
Speaker 3: averaging three point three points per first half.

1089
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:09,480
Speaker 4: Not great.

1090
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 3: They go way over that in this game against the Bucks,

1091
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:15,919
Speaker 3: and it seemed like it really helped them get into

1092
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:18,680
Speaker 3: a rhythm. I know they didn't score a touchdown on

1093
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:20,480
Speaker 3: that first drive, but they did have a nice ten

1094
00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 3: play drive going that ended in a field goal, and

1095
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 3: it seemed like they were dictating to the defense, saying,

1096
00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,680
Speaker 3: this is what we're gonna do. How about you react

1097
00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,520
Speaker 3: to what we're gonna do instead of the other way around.

1098
00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:33,400
Speaker 3: Instead of saying, let's see what the defense is going

1099
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:34,680
Speaker 3: to do and then we're going to figure out what

1100
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:36,160
Speaker 3: we want to do. It seemed like they put their

1101
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 3: stuff out there and they're gonna say, no, we're running

1102
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:42,200
Speaker 3: this and you can decide how you want to defend us.

1103
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,360
Speaker 4: And I love that because I think it added to

1104
00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:45,200
Speaker 4: their confidence.

1105
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:48,879
Speaker 3: So kudos to Ken Dorsey for starting out that way

1106
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:50,880
Speaker 3: and for the game he called to He spread the

1107
00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:55,000
Speaker 3: ball around. I loved different guys getting involved. It seemed

1108
00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:58,279
Speaker 3: like the Bills offense that we know and love and

1109
00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:00,680
Speaker 3: we know that it can be that can week out.

1110
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:04,239
Speaker 2: Okay, so now there is a round of applause.

1111
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,600
Speaker 3: How about a round of applause to my guy, Khalil Shakir.

1112
00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 3: He got targeted six times, caught all of his six

1113
00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:14,920
Speaker 3: targets for ninety two receiving yards, the leader of the

1114
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:18,960
Speaker 3: pack on the stat board, career game for him.

1115
00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:20,560
Speaker 4: He's loved by his.

1116
00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:22,840
Speaker 3: Teammates and people in this building, so I think it's

1117
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:25,480
Speaker 3: so great to see him involved in an offensive game

1118
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:29,600
Speaker 3: plan like this. He had some great yakyards on Thursday,

1119
00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:33,040
Speaker 3: and this offense really loves yakyards.

1120
00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:35,000
Speaker 4: They've been doing a really good job of that this year.

1121
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:37,560
Speaker 3: It's something they focused on in the last few season

1122
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 3: seasons when they haven't been ranked that high in that category,

1123
00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:43,840
Speaker 3: so it was great to see his run and catch ability.

1124
00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:46,120
Speaker 3: I want to see more out of him. He was

1125
00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:48,720
Speaker 3: drafted to be on this team for a reason, and

1126
00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,200
Speaker 3: I loved seeing him get involved. And I would love

1127
00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 3: to see more out of him as well, because I

1128
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:55,600
Speaker 3: think he's a he's a talented receiver, and I know

1129
00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:58,120
Speaker 3: in training camp he was up and down with the

1130
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:01,440
Speaker 3: practices that he had, but I I think this coaching

1131
00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:03,520
Speaker 3: staff and this team has a lot of confidence in him,

1132
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:04,880
Speaker 3: and I just love to see it for a guy

1133
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,240
Speaker 3: like this because he is He's such a great dude.

1134
00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:09,080
Speaker 2: It's just kind of shifty and he has a lot

1135
00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:11,800
Speaker 2: of routes savvy. But it was a single game career

1136
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:14,520
Speaker 2: high for catches and yards. Six catches was a best

1137
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:17,040
Speaker 2: for him, and so was ninety two yards. All right.

1138
00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:22,720
Speaker 3: The Dog Award Dawg Dog that is going to Shack

1139
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:26,000
Speaker 3: Lawson for blocking the field goal early on in the game,

1140
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:28,520
Speaker 3: a big time play. Who knows this game could have

1141
00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:30,880
Speaker 3: played out differently if that field goal was not blocked

1142
00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:32,760
Speaker 3: and the Tampa Bay Bucks were able to get three

1143
00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:35,600
Speaker 3: more points on the scoreboard. I love the way he

1144
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:38,760
Speaker 3: celebrated before we even knew it was a block. It

1145
00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:40,720
Speaker 3: was like, I think that might have been a block

1146
00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:45,720
Speaker 3: because Shocklasson is eating this moment up and is running

1147
00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:49,520
Speaker 3: all over the field celebrating. Sean mcdervis said he wasn't

1148
00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:51,400
Speaker 3: too humble and hungry in that moment.

1149
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:53,200
Speaker 4: I laughed out loud at that.

1150
00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:55,600
Speaker 2: Did you see how he decked Matt Smiley, the special

1151
00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 2: teams coordinator when it got to the side.

1152
00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,680
Speaker 4: I didn't know that happened. I saw something about smiling.

1153
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:03,960
Speaker 2: I was like, to chess bump him after he blocks

1154
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,840
Speaker 2: the kick, he comes to chess bump him, and he

1155
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:09,240
Speaker 2: forgot that shack's at two hundred and seventy five pound

1156
00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:12,200
Speaker 2: human and he decks him onto the ground. It was

1157
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:15,880
Speaker 2: pretty funny. I didn't see it initially until the Friday

1158
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:17,640
Speaker 2: show and I was watching. I was like, who did

1159
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 2: he just knocked down? He was so excited the Stealth

1160
00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:22,840
Speaker 2: Mode Awards.

1161
00:59:22,920 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 3: Stealth Mode is going to our punter Sam Martin. He

1162
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:28,800
Speaker 3: was in stealth mode. He had four punts and out

1163
00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:31,720
Speaker 3: of those four, multiple were down within the ten. I mean,

1164
00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:36,120
Speaker 3: you can be a total weapon when you have punts

1165
00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:38,000
Speaker 3: like that, and when you can flip the field like that,

1166
00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:40,600
Speaker 3: when you make it harder on an offense to move

1167
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:41,560
Speaker 3: the ball down the field.

1168
00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 4: You need things like this from special teams.

1169
00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:46,560
Speaker 3: We need this, We need them to perform at a

1170
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:49,760
Speaker 3: high level, and we saw that in the Thursday night

1171
00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:52,800
Speaker 3: game against the Bucks. And to do it consistently now,

1172
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:55,680
Speaker 3: I think would be amazing for this team because we

1173
00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:58,320
Speaker 3: hear coach talk about all three phases of the game

1174
00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:02,640
Speaker 3: and working together come preliminary football. It really makes a difference,

1175
01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:04,960
Speaker 3: and it made a difference in this one, and you

1176
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:07,280
Speaker 3: would love to see it make a difference against the

1177
01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:10,360
Speaker 3: Cincinnati Bengals, who seemed to have figured it out this

1178
01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:14,040
Speaker 3: past week. Of course, scoring over thirty points. If they're

1179
01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:16,560
Speaker 3: going to try to do that against the Bills, giving

1180
01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:19,560
Speaker 3: them terrible field position is going to help the Bills.

1181
01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:21,800
Speaker 3: So really want to see what Sam Martin and this

1182
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:24,680
Speaker 3: special teams can do moving forward because we need it

1183
01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:25,080
Speaker 3: out of them.

1184
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:27,360
Speaker 2: Hopefully it's not because they're punting. Hopefully it's because the

1185
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:29,959
Speaker 2: Bills are kicking off because they scored. Yeah that's true,

1186
01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:32,919
Speaker 2: but yes, I thought that might have been their best

1187
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:35,040
Speaker 2: game all season, not only in terms of giving the

1188
01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:38,240
Speaker 2: opponent long fields. But Tyler Bass got back on track

1189
01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:41,600
Speaker 2: after a rough couple of games, and Deontay Hardy even

1190
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:44,000
Speaker 2: had a long return to set him up on a

1191
01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:46,320
Speaker 2: short field for the offense and they went in and scored.

1192
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:49,479
Speaker 2: So all good under the hood for special teams. Last

1193
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:51,000
Speaker 2: week the shout out.

1194
01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 3: Award, All right, I'm shouting out Will Levis for the

1195
01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 3: job he did in his NFL debut nineteen of twenty nine,

1196
01:00:57,600 --> 01:01:02,560
Speaker 3: two thirty eight passing yards and four touchdowns. Oh my gosh,

1197
01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:06,320
Speaker 3: in a win over the Falcons. Could he revive some

1198
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:09,360
Speaker 3: things with the Tennessee Titans. We will see this guy's

1199
01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:12,320
Speaker 3: guy who had to wait on draft night gets drafted

1200
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:16,640
Speaker 3: in the second round of the twenty twenty three NFL Draft.

1201
01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:19,200
Speaker 4: You remember watching the draft.

1202
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,760
Speaker 3: And everybody kept cutting back to him and the shots

1203
01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:24,240
Speaker 3: of him in the green room not getting called on

1204
01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:28,480
Speaker 3: night one, and partly in tonight two or round two

1205
01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:32,320
Speaker 3: as well. So happy for him and the NFL debut

1206
01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:36,200
Speaker 3: he had, linking up with d Hop for three passing

1207
01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:40,720
Speaker 3: touchdowns four total for an NFL debut performance.

1208
01:01:40,760 --> 01:01:42,520
Speaker 4: That's pretty incredible, all right.

1209
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:45,560
Speaker 2: And the last one the hats off award.

1210
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:49,720
Speaker 3: Hats off to the Broncos beating Kansas City Bills. Fans

1211
01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:53,400
Speaker 3: rejoice when they see the Kansas City Chiefs get a loss,

1212
01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:56,720
Speaker 3: especially to a team like the Broncos. The Bills are

1213
01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:59,160
Speaker 3: gonna have to face the Chiefs, and the Broncos this

1214
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:00,720
Speaker 3: season haven't done that yet.

1215
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:05,200
Speaker 4: Twenty four to nine. The Broncos hold the Chiefs to

1216
01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:07,000
Speaker 4: this to just nine points.

1217
01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:09,520
Speaker 3: Their defense did a great job. In the last two weeks,

1218
01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:10,920
Speaker 3: their defense has done.

1219
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 4: A lot better job.

1220
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:14,480
Speaker 3: So we'll see what the story's going to be for

1221
01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:18,320
Speaker 3: the Broncos as they're sitting three and five here heading

1222
01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:19,520
Speaker 3: into week nine.

1223
01:02:19,680 --> 01:02:21,760
Speaker 4: They get a bye week this week, I believe we.

1224
01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:25,200
Speaker 3: Were talking about that earlier, and then the Chiefs six

1225
01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:29,480
Speaker 3: and two. Hey, losses, losses help us all out here

1226
01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:32,400
Speaker 3: for the Chiefs. So happy for the Broncos to get

1227
01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:33,760
Speaker 3: a win against the Chiefs.

1228
01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:36,040
Speaker 4: Doing the Lord's work, all right.

1229
01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:40,240
Speaker 2: So those are the Maddie Awards presented by Energy Mark

1230
01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:45,600
Speaker 2: for Week eight. And we also have some reports out

1231
01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:50,000
Speaker 2: there right now, and Jordan Schultz from Bleacher Report was

1232
01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:52,880
Speaker 2: the first to put this out there. He's saying that

1233
01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:56,040
Speaker 2: Leonard Fournette he's spoken to him, and he said that

1234
01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:59,919
Speaker 2: Fournette told him he's in Buffalo and planning to sign

1235
01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:03,080
Speaker 2: with the Bills today pending a physical. This is Jordan

1236
01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:07,280
Speaker 2: Schultz from bleacher Report reporting this. We'll see if that

1237
01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:11,760
Speaker 2: in fact has legs going forward. It'd be interesting it

1238
01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:13,920
Speaker 2: might if that in fact does come to pass, it

1239
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:18,400
Speaker 2: might say something about the rest of the season for

1240
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:21,200
Speaker 2: Damian Harris as well. Knowing he's on IR he's got

1241
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:24,600
Speaker 2: to miss four games, but what happens between now and

1242
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:27,280
Speaker 2: the end of the season at that position as well.

1243
01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:29,200
Speaker 2: So we'll keep our ear to the ground on that,

1244
01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:31,880
Speaker 2: and when something's official, we'll obviously let you know. Aight

1245
01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:34,520
Speaker 2: oh three zero five fifty one eight eight five fifty two,

1246
01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:37,440
Speaker 2: five point fifty. We're talking how you think the AFC

1247
01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:39,200
Speaker 2: East is going to play out the rest of the way.

1248
01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:42,560
Speaker 2: Here as we are about at the halfway turn of

1249
01:03:42,680 --> 01:03:45,760
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty three season and waiting patiently as Tony

1250
01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:47,280
Speaker 2: in New York City, what do you got for us? Tony?

1251
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:51,560
Speaker 13: Hey, Chris, Chris. First, I want to say that I've

1252
01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:54,200
Speaker 13: been a New York Jets fan since they were have tightened,

1253
01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:57,880
Speaker 13: So I remember rooting against Jack Kemp and Elbert Dominion

1254
01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:01,680
Speaker 13: and Cookie Wow. Yeah, but that's need to hear to there.

1255
01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:05,000
Speaker 13: I think Miami is gonna win our division. And the

1256
01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:08,720
Speaker 13: reason I feel that is these guys are loaded, uh

1257
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:09,960
Speaker 13: in terms of talent.

1258
01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:10,680
Speaker 2: Uh.

1259
01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:14,000
Speaker 13: They're still loaded at on both sides of the ball.

1260
01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:14,680
Speaker 2: Uh.

1261
01:04:14,880 --> 01:04:18,320
Speaker 13: And unlike other teams, UH, they don't have guys who

1262
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:21,920
Speaker 13: are out for the entire season because of injuries. So

1263
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:24,800
Speaker 13: I think, uh, I think Miami is gonna take it.

1264
01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:25,400
Speaker 7: Uh.

1265
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,040
Speaker 13: I say, I saw the game when you chop them

1266
01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:32,000
Speaker 13: up in Buffalo early in the year. If the last

1267
01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:36,000
Speaker 13: game in a regular season means something, uh, I think

1268
01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:37,520
Speaker 13: they're gonna return the favor.

1269
01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:41,160
Speaker 2: It's possible. I think your Jets have them twice, right, Tony,

1270
01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:46,160
Speaker 2: They still got to play them twice, is that right? Yeah? So, yeah,

1271
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:49,000
Speaker 2: they're their offensive line is still a little bit of

1272
01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:53,120
Speaker 2: a patchwork deal. Your defensive front might have their way

1273
01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:55,680
Speaker 2: with them if if their corners can cover on the

1274
01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:58,040
Speaker 2: back end even for a half second longer, you know

1275
01:04:58,080 --> 01:04:58,400
Speaker 2: what I mean.

1276
01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:02,960
Speaker 13: No, the Dolphins at this time definitely have a few

1277
01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:05,520
Speaker 13: guys that are banged up on their offensive line, like

1278
01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:08,600
Speaker 13: like a lot of other teams. Uh, But you know

1279
01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:11,800
Speaker 13: those guys are gonna come back. Okay, Yeah, so they

1280
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:15,800
Speaker 13: might have And it bothers me that they're playing, and

1281
01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:19,560
Speaker 13: I wish they were playing Kansas City in Kansas City

1282
01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:24,800
Speaker 13: as opposed to playing them in Germany. You know, yeah, yeah,

1283
01:05:25,040 --> 01:05:28,280
Speaker 13: But that being said, uh, they got a lot of guys.

1284
01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:32,040
Speaker 13: You saw Jalen Ramsey come back, Xavier and Howard's gonna

1285
01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:37,760
Speaker 13: come back. If that'll solidify their secondary, Uh yeah, I think, uh,

1286
01:05:38,560 --> 01:05:41,000
Speaker 13: miamis the team to beat in our division.

1287
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:44,880
Speaker 2: All right, fair enough, Tony, you got some good arguments

1288
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:48,320
Speaker 2: there to back up your point. So yeah, there Dolphins

1289
01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:50,440
Speaker 2: are for real. I think there's any question about that.

1290
01:05:50,600 --> 01:05:53,840
Speaker 2: They're they're gonna hang around. I mean, even with some

1291
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:56,120
Speaker 2: of those injuries on their offensive line. And Tony did

1292
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,160
Speaker 2: make a good point, they don't have guys out for

1293
01:05:58,200 --> 01:05:58,680
Speaker 2: the season.

1294
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:01,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, like the Bills, they're getting guys back.

1295
01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:07,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. H let's go to Mike in Evans next.

1296
01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:10,240
Speaker 14: What do you got for his Mike, Hey, I just

1297
01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:14,240
Speaker 14: wanted to talk about the same thing. I think the

1298
01:06:14,320 --> 01:06:18,160
Speaker 14: Bill's gonna win the division. I wouldn't be a bit

1299
01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:23,200
Speaker 14: surprised to see him run the table. But if they

1300
01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:25,880
Speaker 14: don't run the table, they'll lose one more game. In

1301
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 14: my opinion, as far as Miami's concerned, I don't think

1302
01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 14: Miami is going to win the division, and I think

1303
01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:38,200
Speaker 14: they're gonna have a hard time even getting into the playoffs.

1304
01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:42,240
Speaker 14: You're gonna start seeing them fall pretty quickly.

1305
01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:44,280
Speaker 2: What makes you feel that way, Mike.

1306
01:06:45,320 --> 01:06:52,280
Speaker 14: Well, I think Kansas City's gonna absolutely destroy him because

1307
01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:55,880
Speaker 14: they're a good team. In Miami can't beat good teams.

1308
01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:01,280
Speaker 14: I think that the New England Patriots are gonna be

1309
01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:04,760
Speaker 14: in third place and the Jets are gonna be in

1310
01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:10,040
Speaker 14: fourth place. It's gonna be Buffalo, Miami, New England and

1311
01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:13,400
Speaker 14: the Jets. As far as I'm concerned, As far as

1312
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:19,680
Speaker 14: this weekend's game is concerned, I think that the Bills

1313
01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:22,040
Speaker 14: are gonna win. And I think the reason the Bills

1314
01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:24,960
Speaker 14: are gonna win is because of the pass rush. I

1315
01:07:25,040 --> 01:07:28,120
Speaker 14: think you're gonna I think von Miller is probably gonna

1316
01:07:28,280 --> 01:07:32,400
Speaker 14: end up playing a little bit more than he has

1317
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:35,160
Speaker 14: because I think the Bills did a good job trying to,

1318
01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:39,520
Speaker 14: you know, ease him back so he doesn't get injured again.

1319
01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:44,040
Speaker 14: But I think he is gonna be an absolute monster

1320
01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:51,480
Speaker 14: against UH against Cincinnati this week and UH. I think

1321
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:53,880
Speaker 14: that the pass rush we're gonna end up with somewhere

1322
01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:58,520
Speaker 14: between six and seven sacks on Burrow. And then the

1323
01:07:58,640 --> 01:08:03,160
Speaker 14: last thing I have to say is, I think our

1324
01:08:03,280 --> 01:08:08,720
Speaker 14: offense has got to start running the ball right at Henderson.

1325
01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:11,600
Speaker 14: They can't run it away from running right at him.

1326
01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:17,840
Speaker 14: And I think you're gonna see the Bills probably put

1327
01:08:17,960 --> 01:08:21,920
Speaker 14: up thirty to thirty five points. I don't think Cincinnati

1328
01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:23,080
Speaker 14: will put up seventeen.

1329
01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:25,960
Speaker 2: Okay, Mike, thanks for the call, appreciate it. What do

1330
01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:27,880
Speaker 2: you think of that, Maddie, There's a lot to unpack there.

1331
01:08:28,120 --> 01:08:30,799
Speaker 2: That talk a lot about Cincinnati, but also his division

1332
01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:36,200
Speaker 2: order was Bill's Miami New England Jets. What do you

1333
01:08:36,280 --> 01:08:36,560
Speaker 2: think of that?

1334
01:08:37,800 --> 01:08:38,559
Speaker 4: I think it's uh.

1335
01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:42,680
Speaker 3: I think the Patriots Jets part of that is interesting

1336
01:08:44,880 --> 01:08:47,240
Speaker 3: just because of where they're sitting at right now.

1337
01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:49,639
Speaker 2: And I want to put their two games behind the Jets.

1338
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:52,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to pull up the Patriots schedule right

1339
01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:55,439
Speaker 3: now and see their end of the season. So they

1340
01:08:55,560 --> 01:08:58,439
Speaker 3: got the Chargers still, They've got the Chiefs still, They've

1341
01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:05,280
Speaker 3: got the Jets still. Patriots, Miami, and the New York Jets,

1342
01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:07,800
Speaker 3: they all have a few tough games still left on

1343
01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:08,439
Speaker 3: the schedule.

1344
01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:11,479
Speaker 2: I think the most interesting thing that he said in

1345
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:16,400
Speaker 2: his entire presentation if you will, because he went on

1346
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:18,560
Speaker 2: for about two and a half minutes there was that

1347
01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:24,839
Speaker 2: he said the Dolphins have not beaten any good teams,

1348
01:09:25,160 --> 01:09:28,000
Speaker 2: and for the most part, he is correct. Their two

1349
01:09:28,120 --> 01:09:35,840
Speaker 2: losses are to Philly and Buffalo. So I remember heading

1350
01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:40,360
Speaker 2: into the Philly game, the combined record of all the

1351
01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:45,880
Speaker 2: teams that Miami beat was four and twenty two. Now,

1352
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,599
Speaker 2: I think they might have one decent win in there

1353
01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:51,599
Speaker 2: because who did they beat last week? Did they lose

1354
01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:52,160
Speaker 2: to Philly? Lee?

1355
01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:54,880
Speaker 4: You could argue their best win is the Chargers Week

1356
01:09:54,960 --> 01:09:55,880
Speaker 4: one Chargers game.

1357
01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:58,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the Chargers are still trying to climb out

1358
01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:01,800
Speaker 2: of a hole. And they really haven't beaten many good

1359
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:02,479
Speaker 2: teams either.

1360
01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:06,280
Speaker 3: So because other than that, they've beaten the Patriots twice,

1361
01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:09,400
Speaker 3: the Broncos, the Giants, and the Panthers.

1362
01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:11,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's a no. Yeah, that's a no on

1363
01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:12,599
Speaker 2: all their wins.

1364
01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:15,200
Speaker 4: So it's a it's a fair point, and yeah, I

1365
01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:15,600
Speaker 4: think it is.

1366
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:19,599
Speaker 3: You talk about, Okay, the Dolphins could finish second. I mean,

1367
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:23,080
Speaker 3: hopefully the Bills are are number one in the AFC East.

1368
01:10:24,040 --> 01:10:27,200
Speaker 3: You look back to last season and the Dolphins started

1369
01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:31,439
Speaker 3: out pretty hot and then they they lost stretch five

1370
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:35,960
Speaker 3: straight games from Week thirteen to Week seventeen against the

1371
01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:41,080
Speaker 3: forty nine ers, Charters, Bills packed right, and you look

1372
01:10:41,160 --> 01:10:44,240
Speaker 3: to the end of their season this year, they do

1373
01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:47,759
Speaker 3: still have the Jets twice, They've got the Cowboys, the Ravens,

1374
01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:49,559
Speaker 3: and the Bills, so a few in there.

1375
01:10:49,680 --> 01:10:52,240
Speaker 4: Maybe not as tough as last year. And you know,

1376
01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:54,799
Speaker 4: Tu looks to be healthy at this point in the season.

1377
01:10:55,760 --> 01:10:58,120
Speaker 2: Let's get back to the phones and go to Neil

1378
01:10:58,160 --> 01:10:59,960
Speaker 2: in North Carolina next. What do you got for his neel?

1379
01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:03,960
Speaker 7: Well, thanks taking my call, Chris. I wanted to tell

1380
01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:06,719
Speaker 7: you it's very enjoyable listening to you on the radio.

1381
01:11:07,320 --> 01:11:11,120
Speaker 7: You are getting like John Sterling esque with some of

1382
01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:14,080
Speaker 7: the things you think, so really enjoyable.

1383
01:11:14,360 --> 01:11:16,439
Speaker 2: Thanks the division.

1384
01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:18,160
Speaker 6: This game is a huge game.

1385
01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:22,200
Speaker 7: I think if they beat Cincinnati they can build off

1386
01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:26,479
Speaker 7: of that, and I can see them not running the table,

1387
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:29,280
Speaker 7: but I can see them doing like seven and two

1388
01:11:29,479 --> 01:11:32,519
Speaker 7: for the last nine games. If they can get running

1389
01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:37,439
Speaker 7: and going and continued going the offense, I think they

1390
01:11:37,600 --> 01:11:39,960
Speaker 7: need to be able to pick up somebody who can

1391
01:11:40,040 --> 01:11:43,360
Speaker 7: clog up the middle on defense for the run attack.

1392
01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:45,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, so, Neil, I'm getting the sense I'm getting the

1393
01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:48,519
Speaker 2: sense from you, Neil that you were very encouraged by

1394
01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:52,439
Speaker 2: the offensive output last week, and because I'm feeling like

1395
01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:55,160
Speaker 2: you and our last caller believe there's some momentum to

1396
01:11:55,200 --> 01:11:55,880
Speaker 2: be gained from that.

1397
01:11:56,960 --> 01:12:01,839
Speaker 7: Absolutely, and whoever changed it up, whoever made the decision,

1398
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:05,880
Speaker 7: kudos to whoever did it. I will say they have

1399
01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:10,320
Speaker 7: to stop the first in goal or second in goal

1400
01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:14,639
Speaker 7: in the shotgun. Whether he likes it or not. He's

1401
01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:18,559
Speaker 7: a quarterback. He's a quarterback for a team and he's

1402
01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:20,519
Speaker 7: got to do which best for the team. And I

1403
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:23,200
Speaker 7: think if they would have handed the ball off to

1404
01:12:23,360 --> 01:12:27,799
Speaker 7: Murray with him behind the center, Murray's in for a touchdown,

1405
01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:32,040
Speaker 7: but being in that situation, he's five yards. I just

1406
01:12:32,120 --> 01:12:35,080
Speaker 7: think they've got to be smarter on those calls. But yeah,

1407
01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:37,600
Speaker 7: I think they've got a great opportunity. They got a

1408
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:42,320
Speaker 7: lot more people involved. Shaki looked great. It's just they

1409
01:12:42,400 --> 01:12:46,400
Speaker 7: looked really, really good. And Gabriel Dabriel Davis doing those

1410
01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:51,640
Speaker 7: different patterns. Yeah, oh my god, that was awesome. So

1411
01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:54,639
Speaker 7: hopefully if they can keep that rolling, I can see

1412
01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:56,839
Speaker 7: him winning the division. It's going to be them in Miami.

1413
01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:58,519
Speaker 2: All right. Thanks you very much for the call, and

1414
01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:00,920
Speaker 2: he'll appreciate that. What do you think about that, Maddie,

1415
01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:04,200
Speaker 2: Because that's the second straight caller we've had who believes

1416
01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:09,040
Speaker 2: what we saw in last week's game against Tampa was

1417
01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:12,439
Speaker 2: a sign of things to come in successive weeks. They

1418
01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:14,040
Speaker 2: really think they're gonna be able to build off the

1419
01:13:14,160 --> 01:13:16,400
Speaker 2: offensive performance that we saw for three quarters. That was

1420
01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:18,880
Speaker 2: I mean, that was pretty encouraging. That looked like the

1421
01:13:18,960 --> 01:13:21,439
Speaker 2: Bills offense we've been used to seeing the last three years.

1422
01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:22,240
Speaker 7: I know, I.

1423
01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:27,120
Speaker 3: Loved seeing what they did on offense, and it seemed

1424
01:13:27,280 --> 01:13:29,880
Speaker 3: like and not that they're it seemed like they figured

1425
01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:33,160
Speaker 3: out to a degree of Okay, this is the team

1426
01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:36,400
Speaker 3: that we know and love. But it's not like it's

1427
01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:39,000
Speaker 3: the first time we've seen this from this offense, because

1428
01:13:39,040 --> 01:13:41,759
Speaker 3: we know what this offense looks like when they're operating

1429
01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:42,599
Speaker 3: at a high level.

1430
01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 4: And I believe what they.

1431
01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:47,360
Speaker 3: Did against the Bucks and going up tempo a little

1432
01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:50,040
Speaker 3: bit and spreading the ball out and getting guys involved

1433
01:13:50,120 --> 01:13:53,720
Speaker 3: and Josh getting to use his legs a little bit,

1434
01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:56,479
Speaker 3: I think that's all These are all things that allow

1435
01:13:56,640 --> 01:14:01,439
Speaker 3: this team to be really hard to beat. And why

1436
01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:05,000
Speaker 3: not believe that they could do this going forward, especially

1437
01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:05,839
Speaker 3: when they're gonna.

1438
01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:06,639
Speaker 4: Start facing tough teams.

1439
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:08,719
Speaker 3: I mean, you got the Bengals up next, You're gonna

1440
01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:11,240
Speaker 3: see the Jets again here soon enough. You got the Eagles,

1441
01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:13,800
Speaker 3: and you got the Chiefs, and at this point in

1442
01:14:13,880 --> 01:14:16,040
Speaker 3: your season, you want to be in your bag in

1443
01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:18,840
Speaker 3: terms of the offensive play calls that you're making. And

1444
01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:22,120
Speaker 3: I hope that we see a lot more of this

1445
01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:25,759
Speaker 3: going forward, because it looked like this offense was operating

1446
01:14:25,840 --> 01:14:28,240
Speaker 3: how it should, how we know, how we love and

1447
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:31,400
Speaker 3: how the NFL has kind of gotten accustomed to this

1448
01:14:31,560 --> 01:14:33,960
Speaker 3: team being a threat on offense because the guys like

1449
01:14:34,080 --> 01:14:36,800
Speaker 3: Josh Allen and some new faces too that we saw

1450
01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:40,760
Speaker 3: get involved on Kinkaid, Khalil Shakir Stefan Diggs still had

1451
01:14:40,800 --> 01:14:43,760
Speaker 3: a great game. He still was a big factor, but

1452
01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:45,280
Speaker 3: you've got a lot of guys out there that you

1453
01:14:45,320 --> 01:14:47,200
Speaker 3: can help spread the ball to. James Cook was a

1454
01:14:47,280 --> 01:14:50,040
Speaker 3: factor as well, and to see more guys get involved

1455
01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:51,760
Speaker 3: it makes it harder on a defense for sure.

1456
01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:56,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm encouraged by what we saw last week. It

1457
01:14:56,200 --> 01:14:59,240
Speaker 2: didn't finish great because in the fourth quarter there was

1458
01:14:59,320 --> 01:15:02,000
Speaker 2: like a field possi battle to play. The defense was

1459
01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:04,880
Speaker 2: playing well and locking it down, so I understand some

1460
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:06,920
Speaker 2: of the decisions that were made there in terms of

1461
01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:10,160
Speaker 2: punts instead of go for it. I would like to

1462
01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:14,120
Speaker 2: think against a higher caliber opponent, they'll be more aggressive

1463
01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:17,120
Speaker 2: knowing they got to keep scoring, and I'm confident that

1464
01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:21,120
Speaker 2: that will happen. I would say, out of all of

1465
01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:23,240
Speaker 2: the positivity we heard in the last two calls, the

1466
01:15:23,360 --> 01:15:26,720
Speaker 2: only thing that I worry about is the effectiveness of

1467
01:15:26,800 --> 01:15:30,240
Speaker 2: Buffalo's pass rush against the Cincinnati offense because Burrow gets

1468
01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:33,920
Speaker 2: the ball out so quick, and that's what we saw

1469
01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:36,800
Speaker 2: last year. But maybe a more aggressive approach than the

1470
01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:39,599
Speaker 2: one we saw in last year's playoffs on defense will

1471
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:42,519
Speaker 2: make a difference. At least that's the hope. Anyway, break

1472
01:15:42,600 --> 01:15:45,080
Speaker 2: time for us here, but open lines for you at

1473
01:15:45,160 --> 01:15:48,160

01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:55,920
Speaker 2: this AFC East Division playing out the rest of the

1477
01:15:55,960 --> 01:15:59,080
Speaker 2: way after all the non Bills football you watched over

1478

Speaker 2: more of your phone calls when we return here on

Speaker 2: it open line for you there as we want to

1490
01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,960
Speaker 2: know from you. After watching all the non Bills football

1491
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:47,320
Speaker 2: over the weekend, how do you think this AFC East

1492
01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:49,439
Speaker 2: Division is going to play out the rest of the way.

1493
01:16:49,479 --> 01:16:52,519
Speaker 2: We're pretty much at the halfway turn, so over the

1494
01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:55,519
Speaker 2: last nine games, how do you see the AFC is

1495
01:16:55,560 --> 01:16:59,200
Speaker 2: shaken out in terms of division finish? We go back

1496
01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:03,720
Speaker 2: to the phones and waiting patiently. There is Ronnie on

1497
01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:05,440
Speaker 2: a sale. What do you got for is Ronnie.

1498
01:17:07,640 --> 01:17:08,400
Speaker 5: This time? Maddie?

1499
01:17:08,880 --> 01:17:12,000
Speaker 10: Hey, I'm just curious Being as a little the deadline

1500
01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:15,640
Speaker 10: for the dress or for the trade is coming up.

1501
01:17:16,240 --> 01:17:19,160
Speaker 10: Do you think Being is gonna try and pull out anything.

1502
01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:23,320
Speaker 10: I see you guys were saying that for Fournette's in uh,

1503
01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:27,679
Speaker 10: possibly gonna be signing due to a physical. We'll see

1504
01:17:27,720 --> 01:17:30,400
Speaker 10: what happens with that. But do you think he's gonna

1505
01:17:30,439 --> 01:17:35,400
Speaker 10: try and get us a corner like even trade for Uh?

1506
01:17:36,240 --> 01:17:37,719
Speaker 10: I'm I'm thinking like Denver?

1507
01:17:38,160 --> 01:17:38,919
Speaker 13: Uh certain.

1508
01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:43,320
Speaker 10: Uh, I'm just thinking somebody that you know is really

1509
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,040
Speaker 10: well worth the weight in gold if you're gonna pay him,

1510
01:17:46,439 --> 01:17:48,320
Speaker 10: even if it ends up just being a rental for

1511
01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:50,000
Speaker 10: for the rest of the year.

1512
01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:54,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's I think corner is tough only because Ronnie,

1513
01:17:54,280 --> 01:17:57,960
Speaker 2: as you know, it's a high priced position. So to

1514
01:17:58,040 --> 01:18:02,880
Speaker 2: get anybody worth a ton in terms of talent, you'd

1515
01:18:02,920 --> 01:18:04,960
Speaker 2: have to get him on a rookie contract. Now, certain

1516
01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:08,160
Speaker 2: is that. But the interesting thing was Sean Payton was

1517
01:18:08,280 --> 01:18:11,439
Speaker 2: just asked at his day after press conference today about

1518
01:18:11,720 --> 01:18:15,040
Speaker 2: any trade possibilities, and he said, we are absolutely not

1519
01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:17,840
Speaker 2: shopping anyone on our roster. And after winning two in

1520
01:18:17,920 --> 01:18:21,040
Speaker 2: a row, they probably feel like, hey, nine games left,

1521
01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:23,120
Speaker 2: maybe we can make a run at this thing. So

1522
01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:27,439
Speaker 2: hope Spring's eternal after two straight victories and now they're

1523
01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:31,280
Speaker 2: not selling anybody. Now that could also just be posturing

1524
01:18:32,080 --> 01:18:35,240
Speaker 2: where he's trying to put the message out there like, Nope,

1525
01:18:35,240 --> 01:18:37,360
Speaker 2: we're not shopping anybody. So if you have any interest

1526
01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:38,720
Speaker 2: in one of our guys, you better come with a

1527
01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:41,240
Speaker 2: big offer if you want to change our mind. So

1528
01:18:41,479 --> 01:18:43,760
Speaker 2: it could be posturing in that way. Also, you never

1529
01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:47,000
Speaker 2: really know you're right that Certan's affordable because he's still

1530
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:50,160
Speaker 2: on his rookie contract. But I can't see the Broncos,

1531
01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:52,519
Speaker 2: with the way the defense played yesterday against the Chiefs,

1532
01:18:52,560 --> 01:18:55,000
Speaker 2: holding him to nine points, that they're going to want

1533
01:18:55,040 --> 01:18:57,640
Speaker 2: to part with arguably the best corner in football on

1534
01:18:58,600 --> 01:19:02,240
Speaker 2: a cost effective contract. That's not how you get better.

1535
01:19:04,080 --> 01:19:05,960
Speaker 2: That's not how you get better by throwing people like

1536
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:10,719
Speaker 2: that overboard. So I'd be very surprised. Now, a name

1537
01:19:11,400 --> 01:19:15,600
Speaker 2: that has been thrown out there and who also incidentally

1538
01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:19,200
Speaker 2: just lost his starting job in Pittsburgh is former Bills

1539
01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:22,320
Speaker 2: corner Levi Wallace. That's a name that's been floated around

1540
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:27,439
Speaker 2: out there, you know, amongst reporters. And he's affordable because

1541
01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:30,560
Speaker 2: I think he makes four million base this year, so

1542
01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:33,479
Speaker 2: on a pro rated deal for your last nine games,

1543
01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:35,840
Speaker 2: that's barely over two million. And knowing the Bills have

1544
01:19:36,040 --> 01:19:40,120
Speaker 2: super limited cap space, that's a guy you could fit under,

1545
01:19:41,040 --> 01:19:44,479
Speaker 2: knows the defense walking in the door, and certainly was

1546
01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:48,160
Speaker 2: well liked by the coaching staff. So that might be

1547
01:19:48,240 --> 01:19:51,360
Speaker 2: an option. I don't know, but maybe maybe Pittsburgh wants

1548
01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:53,559
Speaker 2: depth at the position and saying no way, Jose.

1549
01:19:54,280 --> 01:19:54,439
Speaker 5: You know.

1550
01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:57,920
Speaker 2: So we'll have to see, But I can say I'm

1551
01:19:57,960 --> 01:20:01,880
Speaker 2: pretty confident Randon gonna be working the phones because if

1552
01:20:01,920 --> 01:20:04,559
Speaker 2: he thinks there's the smallest chance of making his roster

1553
01:20:04,680 --> 01:20:06,720
Speaker 2: better and it doesn't cost him an arm and a leg,

1554
01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:10,040
Speaker 2: he's going to explore it and investigate it. For sure.

1555
01:20:10,479 --> 01:20:12,400
Speaker 3: We always hear him say that I'm going to do

1556
01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:14,840
Speaker 3: whatever I can to make this roster better at any

1557
01:20:14,960 --> 01:20:18,000
Speaker 3: point in the season when I'm allowed to. And this

1558
01:20:18,120 --> 01:20:21,000
Speaker 3: team loves competition at different levels and they love it

1559
01:20:21,080 --> 01:20:23,400
Speaker 3: within position groups. And if they believe they have somebody

1560
01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:25,519
Speaker 3: that can help with that and not cost a lot,

1561
01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:26,759
Speaker 3: it'll happen.

1562
01:20:26,960 --> 01:20:29,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's get back to the phones. We go to

1563
01:20:29,840 --> 01:20:32,240
Speaker 2: Dan in earing next. What do you got for us? Dan?

1564
01:20:33,320 --> 01:20:36,840
Speaker 15: Hey, I know that it's gonna be the Bills and

1565
01:20:37,000 --> 01:20:39,439
Speaker 15: the Dolphins for the rest of the way for the

1566
01:20:39,520 --> 01:20:44,000
Speaker 15: division title. Well, any chance of Matt Mulano and day,

1567
01:20:44,080 --> 01:20:45,959
Speaker 15: Kwan Jones coming back with the playoffs.

1568
01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:49,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, we still have not been given full

1569
01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:54,080
Speaker 2: clarity Dan on exactly what Milano's injury is. We know

1570
01:20:54,160 --> 01:20:59,479
Speaker 2: it's a lower leg injury. Some reporters have floated out

1571
01:20:59,840 --> 01:21:02,880
Speaker 2: think like that the leg was fractured or broken some

1572
01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:06,720
Speaker 2: national reporters I'm talking about now whether there was any

1573
01:21:06,760 --> 01:21:09,160
Speaker 2: ligament damage. We just don't know because we never got

1574
01:21:09,360 --> 01:21:13,400
Speaker 2: full details officially on the injury. So it's hard to

1575
01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:17,639
Speaker 2: gauge what his prognosis is without knowing the full details

1576
01:21:17,720 --> 01:21:20,519
Speaker 2: of the injury. We know what Daikwon Jones injury is.

1577
01:21:20,640 --> 01:21:25,120
Speaker 2: That's a torn pectoral muscle, and the timetable on that

1578
01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:32,400
Speaker 2: can be about eight to ten weeks, So you can

1579
01:21:32,479 --> 01:21:34,519
Speaker 2: do the math there. He did it in week five.

1580
01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:38,639
Speaker 2: If you add ten weeks to that post surgery, which

1581
01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:43,040
Speaker 2: was probably the following week, maybe he's ready to come

1582
01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:46,559
Speaker 2: back in the playoffs at some point, because I remember

1583
01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:50,840
Speaker 2: John Feliciano tore his peck as a member of the

1584
01:21:50,880 --> 01:21:58,479
Speaker 2: Bills the week before report day and he missed five

1585
01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:01,200
Speaker 2: weeks of four or five weeks of camp and he

1586
01:22:01,280 --> 01:22:04,760
Speaker 2: missed the first five games of the season. So it

1587
01:22:04,880 --> 01:22:08,840
Speaker 2: took him ten weeks, So every case is different. Some

1588
01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:12,479
Speaker 2: guys take longer than others. But if you asked me,

1589
01:22:12,720 --> 01:22:15,360
Speaker 2: and I'm guessing because I'm not a doctor and I

1590
01:22:15,520 --> 01:22:20,120
Speaker 2: don't play one on the radio, I would not. Knowing

1591
01:22:20,200 --> 01:22:22,600
Speaker 2: Matt's injury, it's hard to know what his prognosis is,

1592
01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:25,679
Speaker 2: I would say maybe there's an outside chance Daikwon gets

1593
01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:26,720
Speaker 2: back for postseason.

1594
01:22:27,040 --> 01:22:29,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think because we haven't heard from the

1595
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:32,280
Speaker 3: coaching staff otherwise that they're not ruling these guys out

1596
01:22:32,400 --> 01:22:35,320
Speaker 3: for the entire season, that there is a chance. And

1597
01:22:35,439 --> 01:22:37,600
Speaker 3: that's always good because that means there's a little bit

1598
01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:40,320
Speaker 3: of hope for both of them to come back. We

1599
01:22:40,479 --> 01:22:43,040
Speaker 3: know that they're both back in the building too. Daikwon

1600
01:22:43,160 --> 01:22:45,559
Speaker 3: Jones was back in the building first. Sean has said

1601
01:22:45,600 --> 01:22:48,840
Speaker 3: he's been around and he was at the last home

1602
01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:51,720
Speaker 3: game before the Bucks game. And then we also know

1603
01:22:51,800 --> 01:22:53,920
Speaker 3: that Matt Milano has been back around the building too,

1604
01:22:53,920 --> 01:22:54,519
Speaker 3: which is great.

1605
01:22:54,800 --> 01:22:57,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's get back to the phones though. At eighth three,

1606
01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:00,000
Speaker 2: zero five point fifty one eighty to eighty five fifty

1607
01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:02,680
Speaker 2: two into Jeff in Buffalo next, what do you have

1608
01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:03,240
Speaker 2: for us, Jeff?

1609
01:23:04,439 --> 01:23:04,599
Speaker 7: Oh?

1610
01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:09,120
Speaker 8: Hi, guys, uh I wanted to start off by saying, Maddie,

1611
01:23:09,840 --> 01:23:11,960
Speaker 8: you just add so much to the show whenever you're on,

1612
01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:14,880
Speaker 8: and I would love to see you come on every

1613
01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:17,960
Speaker 8: day if possible. But that's all I have to say

1614
01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:21,919
Speaker 8: about that, especially your your awards sections.

1615
01:23:22,240 --> 01:23:22,680
Speaker 4: There you go.

1616
01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:27,920
Speaker 8: You And also I wanted to I wanted to say

1617
01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:30,479
Speaker 8: there's a couple of guys on the Bills who I

1618
01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:35,679
Speaker 8: think can really add something to the to the offense

1619
01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:39,519
Speaker 8: if they played him more this way. Deontay Hardy, for example,

1620
01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:44,160
Speaker 8: I think could be a great slot receiver, uh if

1621
01:23:44,240 --> 01:23:46,120
Speaker 8: you if they wanted to use him that way, in

1622
01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:49,080
Speaker 8: a Beasley kind of way. And he's a tough little

1623
01:23:49,160 --> 01:23:52,080
Speaker 8: guy and he's fast as hell, and I think that

1624
01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:55,920
Speaker 8: would be a great addition. And also Dalton Kincaid as

1625
01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:58,559
Speaker 8: as almost a wide out kind of thing. He can

1626
01:23:58,640 --> 01:24:01,439
Speaker 8: outrun defensive back. I've seen him. I saw him do

1627
01:24:01,479 --> 01:24:04,760
Speaker 8: it in college against the USC in that bowl game.

1628
01:24:04,880 --> 01:24:08,000
Speaker 8: I mean, he just outran defensive backs. And I think,

1629
01:24:08,240 --> 01:24:10,360
Speaker 8: you know, they could they could stretch the field with

1630
01:24:10,479 --> 01:24:13,800
Speaker 8: this guy. Along with Gabe Davis. He could be big

1631
01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:17,320
Speaker 8: play Dalton. So that's all I have to say about that.

1632
01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:20,679
Speaker 8: And I think the Bills are gonna you know, next

1633
01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:23,559
Speaker 8: week against the Bengals is going to be a real

1634
01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:27,160
Speaker 8: tell tale because they look great yesterday.

1635
01:24:27,320 --> 01:24:29,360
Speaker 2: Yeah they did. You're right about that, Jeff. All right,

1636
01:24:29,439 --> 01:24:31,400
Speaker 2: thanks for the call and for the kine words for

1637
01:24:31,479 --> 01:24:36,280
Speaker 2: Maddie as well. Yeah, I would say that what we're

1638
01:24:36,840 --> 01:24:41,439
Speaker 2: looking at is kind of the I don't want to

1639
01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:44,160
Speaker 2: say maturation, that's not the right word, but the diversification

1640
01:24:44,280 --> 01:24:46,800
Speaker 2: of the offense is kind of unfolding before our eyes here.

1641
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:49,840
Speaker 2: And I would say, if you're going to pick a

1642
01:24:49,960 --> 01:24:53,800
Speaker 2: favorite to be the slot going forward, just going off

1643
01:24:53,840 --> 01:24:58,240
Speaker 2: of last week's production, Khalil Shakir is in the mix

1644
01:24:58,400 --> 01:25:05,439
Speaker 2: there most definitely. Not coincidentally, his number is the same

1645
01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:08,040
Speaker 2: as Beasley's was when he first got here. He eventually

1646
01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:10,120
Speaker 2: switched to eleven Beasley did, but his first year here

1647
01:25:10,160 --> 01:25:13,840
Speaker 2: he was number ten as well. So I think he's

1648
01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:17,200
Speaker 2: kind of stepped forward and say, hey, look at me

1649
01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:21,120
Speaker 2: and what I can do, you know, working in any

1650
01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:23,840
Speaker 2: area of the field, but particularly the middle of the field.

1651
01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:25,960
Speaker 2: I know he had some sideline grabs last week as well,

1652
01:25:26,040 --> 01:25:28,200
Speaker 2: but he did work the middle of the field effectively.

1653
01:25:28,240 --> 01:25:31,200
Speaker 2: And if you have him and Kinkaid working the middle

1654
01:25:31,240 --> 01:25:34,839
Speaker 2: of the field. Now you're really dangerous because you're forcing

1655
01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:39,080
Speaker 2: defenses to play the full width of the field, whether

1656
01:25:39,160 --> 01:25:42,280
Speaker 2: it's Diggs or Davis outside and now Kinkaid and Shakir

1657
01:25:42,360 --> 01:25:44,840
Speaker 2: in the middle. And I think those are the two

1658
01:25:44,920 --> 01:25:48,040
Speaker 2: guys that probably have the greatest chance of having larger

1659
01:25:48,160 --> 01:25:51,680
Speaker 2: roles on a more consistent basis going forward. Hardy you'll

1660
01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:54,479
Speaker 2: have his place. I just don't get the sense it's

1661
01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:58,479
Speaker 2: going to be as regular as perhaps Shakirs will going

1662
01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:00,920
Speaker 2: forward based on what he put on too displayed last week.

1663
01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:04,439
Speaker 2: And not to mention, he also is a punt returner

1664
01:26:04,479 --> 01:26:06,400
Speaker 2: for the team as well, which is an additional role.

1665
01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:09,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, and hopefully he'll have that role as a punk

1666
01:26:09,439 --> 01:26:11,640
Speaker 3: returner and continue to make an impact. I mean, it

1667
01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:13,160
Speaker 3: was great to see what he was able to do

1668
01:26:13,720 --> 01:26:16,240
Speaker 3: last week and hopefully what he can do going forward

1669
01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:16,599
Speaker 3: as well.

1670
01:26:17,600 --> 01:26:20,160
Speaker 2: We have to step aside here, but we're still taking

1671
01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:22,280
Speaker 2: your phone calls. At eight oh threeh five point fifty

1672
01:26:22,400 --> 01:26:24,360
Speaker 2: one eight A eight five P fifty two five point

1673
01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:26,320
Speaker 2: fifty how do you think this division is going to

1674
01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:29,360
Speaker 2: shake out? As we are at the halfway point just

1675
01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:32,600
Speaker 2: about here on the seventeen game, schedule nine games to go,

1676
01:26:33,479 --> 01:26:34,920
Speaker 2: how do you think it's going to shake out one

1677
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:36,439
Speaker 2: through four? You let us know. At eight h three

1678
01:26:36,479 --> 01:26:37,920

01:27:33,320 --> 01:27:35,560
Speaker 2: stays the same, how much it changes, who wins the

1693

Speaker 2: eight eight five point fifty two, five point fifty. We

1694
01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:43,400
Speaker 2: thought this would be a good question to ask, knowing

1695
01:27:43,439 --> 01:27:46,880
Speaker 2: you watched a lot of non Bills football yesterday, So

1696
01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:48,720
Speaker 2: let us know what you think we go back to

1697
01:27:48,760 --> 01:27:50,840
Speaker 2: the phones and to Jay and North Buffalo. What do

1698
01:27:50,880 --> 01:27:51,559
Speaker 2: you got for us? Jay?

1699
01:27:52,520 --> 01:27:56,120
Speaker 12: One of guys technically a happy victory Monday, So yeah, right,

1700
01:27:56,920 --> 01:28:00,479
Speaker 12: we'll take it. Just in terms very about the division,

1701
01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:02,920
Speaker 12: you know, I really feel like, you know, we're still

1702
01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:06,559
Speaker 12: the favorites because I mean, the Dolphins still haven't beaten anybody,

1703
01:28:07,120 --> 01:28:10,280
Speaker 12: you know, and we seem to play up to our

1704
01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:12,360
Speaker 12: level of competition. I know a lot of people are

1705
01:28:12,479 --> 01:28:15,320
Speaker 12: very concerned about the back half of the schedule. I

1706
01:28:15,400 --> 01:28:17,719
Speaker 12: really think those bigger games just kind of bring.

1707
01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:18,439
Speaker 13: Out the best in US.

1708
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:23,120
Speaker 12: So I really see us still running away with the division,

1709
01:28:23,360 --> 01:28:26,320
Speaker 12: especially considering the Jets almost loss to a team with

1710
01:28:26,880 --> 01:28:32,439
Speaker 12: negative passing yards yesterday, astonishing, and then the Patriots are

1711
01:28:32,800 --> 01:28:34,480
Speaker 12: the Patriots being laughable.

1712
01:28:34,160 --> 01:28:35,000
Speaker 13: And it's great.

1713
01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:37,800
Speaker 12: So that's how I keep the division shaking out. And

1714
01:28:37,880 --> 01:28:39,519
Speaker 12: just in terms of the trade deadline, I think we're

1715
01:28:39,520 --> 01:28:41,920
Speaker 12: gonna stampat I mean, maybe make a couple of minor moves,

1716
01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:46,400
Speaker 12: add some depths in the defensive back end, linebacker, secondary,

1717
01:28:46,520 --> 01:28:49,599
Speaker 12: But we still have key guys that need to make

1718
01:28:49,640 --> 01:28:53,880
Speaker 12: an impact on this team. Von Miller, especially Kincaid, you

1719
01:28:53,960 --> 01:28:56,400
Speaker 12: know he's coming around I think they're finding roles for

1720
01:28:56,640 --> 01:29:00,599
Speaker 12: sekir Hardy, you know, So, I really sure we feel

1721
01:29:00,720 --> 01:29:02,800
Speaker 12: like we have the talent on this roster. This is

1722
01:29:02,880 --> 01:29:07,080
Speaker 12: easily the best Bills roster I can never recall. So

1723
01:29:07,240 --> 01:29:09,479
Speaker 12: I just don't really see the value in adding somebody,

1724
01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:13,040
Speaker 12: especially on offense, where we already have enough guys that

1725
01:29:13,240 --> 01:29:15,639
Speaker 12: quote unquote need to get the ball more. So you're

1726
01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:18,680
Speaker 12: gonna bring in Hopkins and try to force him like,

1727
01:29:18,920 --> 01:29:21,680
Speaker 12: it just doesn't make any sense. So I'm up and

1728
01:29:21,760 --> 01:29:22,479
Speaker 12: listen to your comments.

1729
01:29:22,680 --> 01:29:25,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, good call, Jay, A lot of good stuff in there,

1730
01:29:25,800 --> 01:29:28,000
Speaker 2: and I would tend to agree because Steve and I

1731
01:29:28,160 --> 01:29:29,880
Speaker 2: for most of the offseason we're talking about how this

1732
01:29:30,040 --> 01:29:31,519
Speaker 2: roster was even better than the one that they had

1733
01:29:31,640 --> 01:29:36,080
Speaker 2: last year. It just hasn't materialized yet. And I think

1734
01:29:36,160 --> 01:29:39,400
Speaker 2: we finally saw signs of that. Offensively speaking, last week

1735
01:29:39,439 --> 01:29:43,800
Speaker 2: against Tampa. And also last week against Tampa, Von Miller

1736
01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:47,639
Speaker 2: gets his most snaps in a game twenty seven, almost

1737
01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:50,800
Speaker 2: had a sack, and we saw him kind of he

1738
01:29:50,840 --> 01:29:53,960
Speaker 2: had a quarterback head. We saw some flashes of the

1739
01:29:54,080 --> 01:29:57,360
Speaker 2: Vaughan that we've seen before. So I don't think he's

1740
01:29:57,479 --> 01:29:58,680
Speaker 2: very far off right now.

1741
01:29:58,880 --> 01:30:04,879
Speaker 3: No, I've gotten pretty frustrated about how people have zero patients.

1742
01:30:05,160 --> 01:30:07,160
Speaker 4: Yes, I mean you guys.

1743
01:30:07,520 --> 01:30:10,439
Speaker 3: He tore his ACL and I know it might have

1744
01:30:10,520 --> 01:30:12,920
Speaker 3: not been a full tear, but this is an older

1745
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:16,639
Speaker 3: player in the NFL who's gone through injuries before. It's

1746
01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:20,760
Speaker 3: it takes a year to recover andreiving and we're not

1747
01:30:20,840 --> 01:30:23,360
Speaker 3: at Thanksgiving yet and he's already out there, and of

1748
01:30:23,479 --> 01:30:25,639
Speaker 3: course there's gonna be a ramp up period, and maybe

1749
01:30:25,720 --> 01:30:27,920
Speaker 3: there needs to be an even longer ramp up period

1750
01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:31,160
Speaker 3: for him based on this injury, or based on the age,

1751
01:30:31,280 --> 01:30:34,320
Speaker 3: or based on whatever. But we don't need to act

1752
01:30:34,479 --> 01:30:36,760
Speaker 3: like we know what's best for von Miller, and we

1753
01:30:36,800 --> 01:30:39,759
Speaker 3: don't need to act like he should be he should

1754
01:30:39,800 --> 01:30:42,960
Speaker 3: have four sacks by now or three sacks by now, Like,

1755
01:30:43,360 --> 01:30:45,479
Speaker 3: let the guy have a ramp up period, let him

1756
01:30:45,520 --> 01:30:48,840
Speaker 3: get comfortable, let him, let him get back to feeling

1757
01:30:48,960 --> 01:30:51,719
Speaker 3: like he's he's in his own skin again and feeling

1758
01:30:51,840 --> 01:30:54,479
Speaker 3: like he can be an effective pass rusher. And it's

1759
01:30:54,560 --> 01:30:57,920
Speaker 3: not like they're desperate for him. This this unit has

1760
01:30:57,960 --> 01:31:00,639
Speaker 3: been playing at such a high level. There, top two

1761
01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:03,200
Speaker 3: in the NFL in sacks right now, and that's been

1762
01:31:03,280 --> 01:31:06,639
Speaker 3: without von Miller. They can afford to wait until he's

1763
01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:09,880
Speaker 3: ready to go. And I hate when people get on

1764
01:31:10,000 --> 01:31:13,280
Speaker 3: his back about being positive. He talks to the media

1765
01:31:13,439 --> 01:31:16,599
Speaker 3: and he says, I believe I can have my best game,

1766
01:31:16,680 --> 01:31:18,760
Speaker 3: you know, I believe this is gonna be my best

1767
01:31:18,800 --> 01:31:22,519
Speaker 3: week yet. And then people crucify him in comments because

1768
01:31:22,880 --> 01:31:25,720
Speaker 3: he isn't out there having two or three sacks, like

1769
01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:29,400
Speaker 3: just wait, just wait, it's gonna happen. I believe it

1770
01:31:29,479 --> 01:31:32,560
Speaker 3: can happen. He is such a great NFL player. He

1771
01:31:32,680 --> 01:31:35,360
Speaker 3: can do things this year that push him farther into

1772
01:31:36,000 --> 01:31:40,000
Speaker 3: the top in the NFL of his time for sacks.

1773
01:31:40,680 --> 01:31:43,439
Speaker 3: He's got a huge number. He will continue to get

1774
01:31:43,479 --> 01:31:46,200
Speaker 3: more this season. And it hasn't been a year. Let

1775
01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:50,000
Speaker 3: so let's just wait till that year happens. For us

1776
01:31:50,120 --> 01:31:52,400
Speaker 3: to pass some judgment on a guy who's been out

1777
01:31:52,439 --> 01:31:55,600
Speaker 3: for a long time and is getting back into the

1778
01:31:55,760 --> 01:31:59,680
Speaker 3: swing of things, and let him be positive. Let him

1779
01:31:59,680 --> 01:32:03,479
Speaker 3: be positive about his comeback, about how he feels. We

1780
01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:05,560
Speaker 3: don't know how he feels. We don't know what he

1781
01:32:05,640 --> 01:32:08,160
Speaker 3: goes through every single day, so don't get on his

1782
01:32:08,280 --> 01:32:08,880
Speaker 3: back about it.

1783
01:32:09,080 --> 01:32:12,080
Speaker 4: It drives me crazy. I can tell, Oh my gosh,

1784
01:32:13,040 --> 01:32:15,479
Speaker 4: he's a great guy. He's working so hard to come back.

1785
01:32:15,520 --> 01:32:16,120
Speaker 2: He is a good dude.

1786
01:32:16,360 --> 01:32:19,120
Speaker 4: We know he's doing all he can, and.

1787
01:32:19,240 --> 01:32:21,360
Speaker 3: We know this coaching staff is going to put him

1788
01:32:21,400 --> 01:32:23,720
Speaker 3: in a great position to be able to be that

1789
01:32:23,840 --> 01:32:26,040
Speaker 3: difference maker when they feel like the time is right,

1790
01:32:26,400 --> 01:32:28,559
Speaker 3: and there will be a time this season where that happens.

1791
01:32:28,640 --> 01:32:30,519
Speaker 2: One hundred and twenty three and a half sacks in

1792
01:32:30,720 --> 01:32:32,920
Speaker 2: his career, and I'm pretty sure he's going to get

1793
01:32:32,920 --> 01:32:36,280
Speaker 2: some more before this year is out. And then in

1794
01:32:36,360 --> 01:32:40,000
Speaker 2: addition to that, some of the other stuff that Jay mentioned.

1795
01:32:40,560 --> 01:32:43,559
Speaker 2: You know, he said he only expects minor tweaks here

1796
01:32:43,560 --> 01:32:45,559
Speaker 2: at the deadline, and I would be inclined to agree

1797
01:32:45,600 --> 01:32:47,280
Speaker 2: with that. You know a lot of people have said

1798
01:32:47,280 --> 01:32:49,439
Speaker 2: at a receiver, at a receiver, at a receiver. I

1799
01:32:49,520 --> 01:32:54,320
Speaker 2: think what we're seeing is the diversification of the offense

1800
01:32:54,640 --> 01:32:58,160
Speaker 2: through more defined roles, and we got to peek at

1801
01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:03,280
Speaker 2: that last Thursday night. Maybe Shakir is going to find

1802
01:33:03,360 --> 01:33:06,800
Speaker 2: his way into that primary slot role. Maybe Dalton kin

1803
01:33:06,880 --> 01:33:09,360
Speaker 2: Kaid will get a few more downfield routes or up

1804
01:33:09,439 --> 01:33:12,360
Speaker 2: the seam and make more fifteen to twenty yard pass

1805
01:33:12,400 --> 01:33:15,479
Speaker 2: plays instead of five to ten yard pass plays. So

1806
01:33:16,439 --> 01:33:18,720
Speaker 2: I think if we just let this thing percolate a

1807
01:33:18,760 --> 01:33:23,320
Speaker 2: little bit, maybe the Bills are playing their best football

1808
01:33:23,880 --> 01:33:26,720
Speaker 2: when it's most important to be playing it in the

1809
01:33:26,840 --> 01:33:29,240
Speaker 2: meat of their schedule. And the last thing that Jay

1810
01:33:29,320 --> 01:33:31,719
Speaker 2: mentioned that I would tend to agree with too, based

1811
01:33:31,760 --> 01:33:34,400
Speaker 2: on what we've seen so far this season, Maddie, is

1812
01:33:34,560 --> 01:33:38,000
Speaker 2: the Bills have for the most part, risen to the

1813
01:33:38,120 --> 01:33:40,960
Speaker 2: caliber of their opponent and played some of their best

1814
01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:44,599
Speaker 2: football against some of the toughest opponents. Now the Jets

1815
01:33:44,680 --> 01:33:47,000
Speaker 2: might be the exception. If you think the Jets are

1816
01:33:47,000 --> 01:33:48,960
Speaker 2: a very good team, they are four and three without

1817
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:52,160
Speaker 2: their starting quarterback. That's pretty impressive as far as I'm concerned.

1818
01:33:53,479 --> 01:33:56,200
Speaker 2: But they played their best game of the season against Miami,

1819
01:33:56,720 --> 01:33:58,759
Speaker 2: and that's a team that's in first place in the division.

1820
01:33:59,240 --> 01:34:01,879
Speaker 2: I think Bills would sign up for that to continue,

1821
01:34:01,960 --> 01:34:04,960
Speaker 2: because that means playing the likes of Cincinnati, Kansas City,

1822
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:08,160
Speaker 2: and Philadelphia and Dallas. You're gonna play your best football too,

1823
01:34:08,200 --> 01:34:10,160
Speaker 2: and I think they're gonna need to if they want

1824
01:34:10,200 --> 01:34:12,800
Speaker 2: to win more of those than they lose. Got to

1825
01:34:12,880 --> 01:34:16,400
Speaker 2: take a break here, but when we begin our number three,

1826
01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:18,840
Speaker 2: we're gonna have our good friend Eric Wood in here

1827
01:34:18,920 --> 01:34:22,120
Speaker 2: with us to talk about that Thursday night game and

1828
01:34:22,360 --> 01:34:25,599
Speaker 2: how we see things going forward for this Bill's team

1829
01:34:25,640 --> 01:34:28,320
Speaker 2: over those last nine regular season games. Eric Wood, coming

1830
01:34:28,360 --> 01:34:30,439
Speaker 2: your way next here on One Bill's Live presented by

1831
01:34:30,520 --> 01:34:32,639
Speaker 2: Kalida Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

1832
01:35:16,160 --> 01:35:20,840
Speaker 1: These One Bills Live presented by calllighta Health.

1833
01:35:21,479 --> 01:35:24,280
Speaker 2: All right, hour number three here on a Monday and

1834
01:35:24,720 --> 01:35:28,080
Speaker 2: joining us now is my broadcast partner on the Bills

1835
01:35:28,160 --> 01:35:30,599
Speaker 2: Radio Network. It is one Eric Wood joining us here

1836
01:35:30,720 --> 01:35:34,080
Speaker 2: on the show. And a little bit more removed Eric

1837
01:35:34,240 --> 01:35:36,920
Speaker 2: from the last game since it was on Thursday night,

1838
01:35:37,760 --> 01:35:40,880
Speaker 2: but still in all you know, Maddy and I have

1839
01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:43,240
Speaker 2: discussed this with some of our callers as well. Maybe

1840
01:35:43,280 --> 01:35:46,080
Speaker 2: the best thing to come out of that game was

1841
01:35:46,560 --> 01:35:52,560
Speaker 2: the diversification and what appeared to be the defining of

1842
01:35:52,800 --> 01:35:55,799
Speaker 2: roles in Buffalo's passing game. Would you agree?

1843
01:35:57,080 --> 01:35:59,439
Speaker 16: Yeah, I agree with that, and I was extremely impressed

1844
01:35:59,439 --> 01:36:02,360
Speaker 16: with the offense throughout the night. You know, they kind

1845
01:36:02,400 --> 01:36:04,200
Speaker 16: of take their foot off the gas a little bit late,

1846
01:36:04,280 --> 01:36:06,760
Speaker 16: maybe the execution wasn't quite there in the fourth quarter.

1847
01:36:07,040 --> 01:36:08,560
Speaker 16: Looked like they were gonna run away with it for

1848
01:36:08,640 --> 01:36:11,920
Speaker 16: a moment, you know, early in that third quarter midway

1849
01:36:11,920 --> 01:36:14,479
Speaker 16: through the third quarter. But yeah, to me to have

1850
01:36:14,760 --> 01:36:19,000
Speaker 16: guys like Shakir a step up, Kincaid second week in

1851
01:36:19,080 --> 01:36:25,760
Speaker 16: a row, Gabe Davis with some almost opposite place from

1852
01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:28,040
Speaker 16: what we're used to seeing with him. They're throwing screens

1853
01:36:28,040 --> 01:36:29,800
Speaker 16: out to him because he's generally gonna get the off

1854
01:36:29,840 --> 01:36:31,960
Speaker 16: coverage because they think he's running down the field on

1855
01:36:32,120 --> 01:36:34,640
Speaker 16: most routes and that's what we've seen, and so they

1856
01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:36,360
Speaker 16: get it to him on the outside and let Digs

1857
01:36:36,400 --> 01:36:40,120
Speaker 16: block for him. And I just loved you said at

1858
01:36:40,160 --> 01:36:43,439
Speaker 16: the Diversity, but I love the game plan from Ken Dorsey.

1859
01:36:43,560 --> 01:36:46,600
Speaker 16: It starts from the very beginning when they mix in

1860
01:36:46,920 --> 01:36:49,360
Speaker 16: the up tempo, no huddle offense. They kind of go

1861
01:36:49,520 --> 01:36:52,320
Speaker 16: in and out of a fast pace. Even if they're

1862
01:36:52,400 --> 01:36:54,360
Speaker 16: in no huddle, that doesn't necessarily mean you need to

1863
01:36:54,360 --> 01:36:55,599
Speaker 16: snap the ball right when you get to a line

1864
01:36:55,600 --> 01:36:56,080
Speaker 16: of scrimmage.

1865
01:36:56,120 --> 01:36:56,760
Speaker 5: Sometimes they did.

1866
01:36:57,080 --> 01:36:59,640
Speaker 16: Other times they let Josh check at the line of scrimmage,

1867
01:36:59,840 --> 01:37:03,960
Speaker 16: and I had fun with people trying to decipher what

1868
01:37:04,040 --> 01:37:05,960
Speaker 16: he was saying at times and all that, And he

1869
01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:07,720
Speaker 16: made the joke afterwards as well. They're gonna have to

1870
01:37:07,760 --> 01:37:11,599
Speaker 16: come up with some different terminology each and every week

1871
01:37:11,800 --> 01:37:13,559
Speaker 16: if they're going to continue to stay in that no huddle.

1872
01:37:13,600 --> 01:37:16,559
Speaker 16: Because it was very audible, it was easy for even

1873
01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:18,559
Speaker 16: us to hear it in our head. Sends much less

1874
01:37:18,840 --> 01:37:21,880
Speaker 16: on TV throughout the game, but super impressed with that. Also,

1875
01:37:22,280 --> 01:37:25,160
Speaker 16: we got to see some Josh Allen running and Ken

1876
01:37:25,240 --> 01:37:28,160
Speaker 16: Dorsey dials up a QB draw and I believe it

1877
01:37:28,240 --> 01:37:29,680
Speaker 16: was the second player of the game, and so they

1878
01:37:29,760 --> 01:37:31,840
Speaker 16: made sure to get that in early and it was

1879
01:37:32,160 --> 01:37:33,320
Speaker 16: fun to watch him execute.

1880
01:37:33,640 --> 01:37:34,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, I want to stay right there.

1881
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:35,160
Speaker 8: Eric.

1882
01:37:35,640 --> 01:37:37,439
Speaker 3: After the game, we heard from Sean mcderman and he

1883
01:37:37,479 --> 01:37:40,000
Speaker 3: said it was a focus to get Josh running the

1884
01:37:40,040 --> 01:37:42,519
Speaker 3: ball a little bit more even in practice that week.

1885
01:37:42,640 --> 01:37:46,559
Speaker 3: So what does this offense do when Josh Allen can

1886
01:37:46,680 --> 01:37:49,600
Speaker 3: run the ball? What allows this offense to kind of

1887
01:37:49,640 --> 01:37:51,439
Speaker 3: operate at a higher level when he can run the

1888
01:37:51,479 --> 01:37:51,960
Speaker 3: rock like that?

1889
01:37:53,040 --> 01:37:54,200
Speaker 5: Well, he's a weapon.

1890
01:37:54,320 --> 01:37:56,240
Speaker 16: He's the best player on your team, maybe one of

1891
01:37:56,280 --> 01:37:58,639
Speaker 16: the best athletes in the league at the quarterback position,

1892
01:37:58,760 --> 01:38:02,200
Speaker 16: maybe outside of Lamar Jackson, and so you let him

1893
01:38:02,520 --> 01:38:06,000
Speaker 16: make place. Yes, there's some risk with Josh Allen running,

1894
01:38:06,400 --> 01:38:10,599
Speaker 16: but it's talked about fairly often that athletic quarterbacks generally

1895
01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:12,880
Speaker 16: get hurt in the pocket, not when they're on the move.

1896
01:38:13,240 --> 01:38:17,240
Speaker 16: They're in control when they're in space through these freak athletes,

1897
01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:19,760
Speaker 16: and so when he's at control on the move, we

1898
01:38:20,200 --> 01:38:23,040
Speaker 16: haven't seen him get dinged up throughout his career, and

1899
01:38:23,160 --> 01:38:26,680
Speaker 16: so yes, they want to, you know, fundamentally, year after

1900
01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:29,880
Speaker 16: year Josh become more of a true pocket passer and

1901
01:38:30,000 --> 01:38:32,719
Speaker 16: have that element as well, and they've been conscious about

1902
01:38:32,720 --> 01:38:35,479
Speaker 16: that this year. I mean through six weeks he had

1903
01:38:35,520 --> 01:38:38,559
Speaker 16: a third of the carries this year than he did

1904
01:38:38,920 --> 01:38:42,080
Speaker 16: in any previous year of him being in the NFL.

1905
01:38:42,200 --> 01:38:46,160
Speaker 16: So obviously post Jets game, it was we're not going

1906
01:38:46,240 --> 01:38:49,839
Speaker 16: to run with Josh as much. And look, the offense

1907
01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:51,559
Speaker 16: suffered a little bit because of that. They're not all

1908
01:38:51,640 --> 01:38:53,600
Speaker 16: the way there where they can play that style of

1909
01:38:53,680 --> 01:38:56,720
Speaker 16: ball and be a top flight offense. But when you

1910
01:38:56,840 --> 01:38:59,280
Speaker 16: add that in, it just puts so much pressure on

1911
01:38:59,439 --> 01:39:02,439
Speaker 16: the defense when you add in the quarterback run element,

1912
01:39:02,600 --> 01:39:04,720
Speaker 16: and we saw it on full display Thursday night.

1913
01:39:05,680 --> 01:39:09,000
Speaker 2: And you know, they haven't gotten much notoriety. They rarely

1914
01:39:09,080 --> 01:39:12,920
Speaker 2: do unless they do something extraordinary. But special teams had

1915
01:39:12,920 --> 01:39:17,519
Speaker 2: a rough few weeks Eric, as you know, and you

1916
01:39:17,560 --> 01:39:22,080
Speaker 2: know this game against the Bucks. Sam Martin hands three

1917
01:39:22,200 --> 01:39:25,200
Speaker 2: long fields in a row to the Buccaneers at the

1918
01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:27,559
Speaker 2: end of the game, which was pretty critical in creating

1919
01:39:27,640 --> 01:39:31,920
Speaker 2: long fields. You have Deontay Hardy on a long return,

1920
01:39:32,360 --> 01:39:35,720
Speaker 2: given a short field to the offense, and Tyler Baskets

1921
01:39:35,800 --> 01:39:38,760
Speaker 2: back on track on kicks. I mean it might have

1922
01:39:38,840 --> 01:39:41,719
Speaker 2: been their best special teams performance of the season all around,

1923
01:39:41,800 --> 01:39:43,280
Speaker 2: aside from a couple of penalties.

1924
01:39:44,560 --> 01:39:47,240
Speaker 16: Yeah, I agree with that, and it started early with

1925
01:39:47,320 --> 01:39:50,800
Speaker 16: the Josh Norman hit on the kickoff coverage. And so

1926
01:39:51,439 --> 01:39:56,000
Speaker 16: to me, Sean McDermott is always talking about complimentary football

1927
01:39:56,080 --> 01:39:58,360
Speaker 16: and when you have the injuries, especially the defensive side

1928
01:39:58,360 --> 01:40:01,000
Speaker 16: of the football, everybody has to be working in a

1929
01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:04,160
Speaker 16: complimentary fashion and we saw that on Thursday night. When

1930
01:40:04,320 --> 01:40:06,599
Speaker 16: you can help out a defense that's under manned at

1931
01:40:06,640 --> 01:40:09,560
Speaker 16: times because of the injuries by making them drive the

1932
01:40:09,600 --> 01:40:11,759
Speaker 16: full length of the field, you help out your offense,

1933
01:40:11,800 --> 01:40:16,080
Speaker 16: give them good field position and look what they had

1934
01:40:16,160 --> 01:40:17,599
Speaker 16: done the previous few weeks.

1935
01:40:17,920 --> 01:40:18,719
Speaker 5: Is part of the reason.

1936
01:40:18,760 --> 01:40:21,000
Speaker 16: You know, we're trying to pick apart the offense and

1937
01:40:21,160 --> 01:40:22,920
Speaker 16: is this defense too dinged up?

1938
01:40:22,960 --> 01:40:25,000
Speaker 5: Well, the Bills lose two close.

1939
01:40:24,800 --> 01:40:28,960
Speaker 16: Games where they're special teams played awful and so you know,

1940
01:40:29,160 --> 01:40:33,360
Speaker 16: uncharacteristically too. You know, we've seen stellar special teams play

1941
01:40:33,520 --> 01:40:35,880
Speaker 16: under Sean McDermott with him as the head coach of

1942
01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:38,360
Speaker 16: the Bill, So it seems like they're back into form

1943
01:40:38,720 --> 01:40:40,559
Speaker 16: and they really showed up in a big way Thursday night.

1944
01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:43,600
Speaker 3: Dolnk and Kaid has had his best game yet with

1945
01:40:43,720 --> 01:40:46,400
Speaker 3: five catches and sixty five receiving yards, finally got his

1946
01:40:46,520 --> 01:40:47,799
Speaker 3: first NFL touchdown.

1947
01:40:48,240 --> 01:40:49,479
Speaker 4: Where does he go from here?

1948
01:40:49,640 --> 01:40:51,639
Speaker 3: Now that Dawson Knox is not going to be involved

1949
01:40:51,680 --> 01:40:54,080
Speaker 3: in the lineup for the next few weeks, where do

1950
01:40:54,120 --> 01:40:56,800
Speaker 3: you think he goes in terms of targets he gets

1951
01:40:56,920 --> 01:40:59,200
Speaker 3: and in terms of his role within this offense since

1952
01:40:59,280 --> 01:41:01,840
Speaker 3: we saw great game out of him against the Bucks.

1953
01:41:02,840 --> 01:41:04,720
Speaker 16: Yeah, you know, these last couple of weeks, he's been

1954
01:41:04,840 --> 01:41:08,439
Speaker 16: super productive and that's what Bill's fans assume was gonna

1955
01:41:08,439 --> 01:41:10,160
Speaker 16: happen from the start of the season. You got a

1956
01:41:10,280 --> 01:41:12,680
Speaker 16: first round draft pick and all the hype around him

1957
01:41:12,720 --> 01:41:15,160
Speaker 16: all offseason and even played well in the preseason.

1958
01:41:15,479 --> 01:41:17,200
Speaker 5: Well, when you have two tight ends out.

1959
01:41:17,080 --> 01:41:19,320
Speaker 16: There, and you have Digs and you have Davis, and

1960
01:41:19,400 --> 01:41:21,960
Speaker 16: you have so many weapons on offense, you know, and

1961
01:41:22,080 --> 01:41:24,639
Speaker 16: then you're essentially splitting times a tight end.

1962
01:41:25,040 --> 01:41:27,960
Speaker 5: Then you're not going to have that high of production.

1963
01:41:28,160 --> 01:41:31,240
Speaker 16: But these last couple of weeks with him being the

1964
01:41:31,360 --> 01:41:34,360
Speaker 16: main feature at tight end, we've seen what he's capable of,

1965
01:41:34,560 --> 01:41:37,559
Speaker 16: and you know he's he's got an incredible catch radius.

1966
01:41:37,600 --> 01:41:40,280
Speaker 16: I believe Josh Allen's perfect throwing him the football of

1967
01:41:40,360 --> 01:41:43,280
Speaker 16: the last two games, he makes contested catches. He's got

1968
01:41:43,360 --> 01:41:46,880
Speaker 16: a great feel for sitting in the soft spots of zones,

1969
01:41:47,200 --> 01:41:49,720
Speaker 16: and when you talk about the Bill's struggling against the

1970
01:41:49,800 --> 01:41:54,080
Speaker 16: blitz against the Patriots and against Jacksonville, having a very

1971
01:41:54,320 --> 01:41:56,800
Speaker 16: quarterback friendly tight end that can sit in those soft bots.

1972
01:41:56,960 --> 01:42:00,799
Speaker 16: And even on his touchdown on Dalton kick Kate's touchdown,

1973
01:42:01,040 --> 01:42:03,320
Speaker 16: he actually looks for the ball right away because he

1974
01:42:03,360 --> 01:42:05,840
Speaker 16: sees the blitz and so he actually was hot on

1975
01:42:05,920 --> 01:42:07,479
Speaker 16: that play and Josh coulda gave it to him right

1976
01:42:07,520 --> 01:42:10,479
Speaker 16: then Josh scrambles to his right. He has the wherewithal

1977
01:42:10,640 --> 01:42:13,320
Speaker 16: to convert his hot route into an over route and

1978
01:42:13,400 --> 01:42:15,000
Speaker 16: then catch the ball and get in for a touchdown.

1979
01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:17,200
Speaker 16: I've been super impressed with him since he walked in

1980
01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:20,240
Speaker 16: the door, and we're really starting to see him progress

1981
01:42:21,160 --> 01:42:22,800
Speaker 16: as a big time NFL at tight end here.

1982
01:42:22,960 --> 01:42:26,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely wise beyond his ears for sure, knowing he's

1983
01:42:26,600 --> 01:42:29,880
Speaker 2: just a rookie. Looking at the defensive side of the ball, Eric,

1984
01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:34,559
Speaker 2: a couple of things come to mind here. First, when

1985
01:42:34,600 --> 01:42:37,160
Speaker 2: the team can get a lead, that pass rush looks

1986
01:42:37,200 --> 01:42:41,759
Speaker 2: a whole lot better. And then number two, the coverage

1987
01:42:42,000 --> 01:42:45,000
Speaker 2: by Dan Jackson and Christian Benford for the most part

1988
01:42:45,080 --> 01:42:47,639
Speaker 2: in that game, or at least through the first three quarters,

1989
01:42:48,360 --> 01:42:52,040
Speaker 2: was maybe the most consistent that we've seen all season.

1990
01:42:53,240 --> 01:42:55,439
Speaker 16: Yeah, they really held Mike Evans and check for a

1991
01:42:55,479 --> 01:42:57,400
Speaker 16: majority of that game. He has the touchdown, but that

1992
01:42:57,600 --> 01:43:00,760
Speaker 16: ball bounces off of Benford's head, off his helmet, and

1993
01:43:00,880 --> 01:43:04,800
Speaker 16: so to me, you know, watching that game the other night,

1994
01:43:04,960 --> 01:43:07,800
Speaker 16: you know that's gonna need to be the formula likely

1995
01:43:07,880 --> 01:43:10,800
Speaker 16: for the Bills moving forward. You know, they're just so

1996
01:43:10,920 --> 01:43:14,320
Speaker 16: banged up on defense that if teams can stay balanced

1997
01:43:14,360 --> 01:43:17,400
Speaker 16: against them at times they may struggle. But playing with

1998
01:43:17,479 --> 01:43:20,240
Speaker 16: the lead, considering who they have rushing the pass, are

1999
01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:23,679
Speaker 16: still up front. The athleticism they have on the second

2000
01:43:23,800 --> 01:43:26,160
Speaker 16: level of the defense with Bernard they get They're getting

2001
01:43:26,280 --> 01:43:28,920
Speaker 16: more dome defense now at Poyer put rap on the

2002
01:43:28,960 --> 01:43:32,080
Speaker 16: field as well. Yeah, this is a defense that in

2003
01:43:32,479 --> 01:43:35,920
Speaker 16: like most defenses in the NFL, but they played, they

2004
01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:38,840
Speaker 16: showed playing with the lead is gonna be what they

2005
01:43:38,920 --> 01:43:40,960
Speaker 16: need to do. And so we were wondering if Sean

2006
01:43:41,040 --> 01:43:44,719
Speaker 16: McDermott may accept the opening kick, take the opening kickoff

2007
01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:47,559
Speaker 16: and receive if they won the toss, they still deferred,

2008
01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:50,960
Speaker 16: but getting up in games is really going to help

2009
01:43:51,000 --> 01:43:53,720
Speaker 16: out that defense in I believe they're second in the

2010
01:43:53,840 --> 01:43:57,479
Speaker 16: NFL and sacks right now, and they've missed a ton

2011
01:43:57,560 --> 01:44:00,280
Speaker 16: of sacks in the pocket, not getting quarterbacks down and

2012
01:44:00,439 --> 01:44:03,080
Speaker 16: so really they could even boost those numbers from there

2013
01:44:03,200 --> 01:44:04,679
Speaker 16: just bringing guys down better.

2014
01:44:05,040 --> 01:44:06,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, they tie for a second right now in the

2015
01:44:06,720 --> 01:44:09,000
Speaker 3: NFL with twenty eight sacks. I want to ask you

2016
01:44:09,080 --> 01:44:11,400
Speaker 3: about the dime defense that they've been in a little

2017
01:44:11,400 --> 01:44:13,680
Speaker 3: bit more. There was a stat from the NFL that

2018
01:44:13,760 --> 01:44:16,040
Speaker 3: I think that said maybe in the first five games

2019
01:44:16,120 --> 01:44:18,760
Speaker 3: or four games, they didn't play any dime and within

2020
01:44:18,840 --> 01:44:22,519
Speaker 3: the last two games heading into this Bucks game, really

2021
01:44:22,760 --> 01:44:25,960
Speaker 3: they had played twenty one snaps within the last two

2022
01:44:26,040 --> 01:44:28,800
Speaker 3: games heading into the Bucks game, and we saw them

2023
01:44:28,920 --> 01:44:31,559
Speaker 3: use dime again against the Bucks, and I think it's

2024
01:44:31,600 --> 01:44:34,439
Speaker 3: something we will see going forward, because Sean McDermott commented

2025
01:44:34,560 --> 01:44:36,519
Speaker 3: after the game and said, you know, we're trying to

2026
01:44:36,560 --> 01:44:40,160
Speaker 3: figure out how to live life without Matt Milano, and

2027
01:44:40,720 --> 01:44:44,519
Speaker 3: moving Jordan Poyer into a roller like this allows us

2028
01:44:44,600 --> 01:44:46,679
Speaker 3: to do that, where Jordan Poyer is kind of acting

2029
01:44:47,120 --> 01:44:50,920
Speaker 3: as a bigger linebacker there, not necessarily taking one off

2030
01:44:50,960 --> 01:44:54,160
Speaker 3: the field, but switching guys around within their roles. We

2031
01:44:54,280 --> 01:44:57,040
Speaker 3: know that Jordan Poyer does play safety when they're not

2032
01:44:57,479 --> 01:44:59,799
Speaker 3: in dime, but what do you make of their usage

2033
01:44:59,840 --> 01:45:01,960
Speaker 3: of Have you liked how it's looked and have you

2034
01:45:02,120 --> 01:45:05,120
Speaker 3: liked what they've gotten out what they've gotten out of it?

2035
01:45:06,560 --> 01:45:06,760
Speaker 5: Yeah?

2036
01:45:06,800 --> 01:45:10,559
Speaker 16: I do, And to me, you're adding athleticism onto the field.

2037
01:45:10,920 --> 01:45:13,599
Speaker 16: Dotson has played fine when he's been in for Milano,

2038
01:45:13,680 --> 01:45:15,720
Speaker 16: but that's not someone you want to allow teams to

2039
01:45:15,840 --> 01:45:18,800
Speaker 16: target on third down and obvious pass situation, So you

2040
01:45:18,960 --> 01:45:22,160
Speaker 16: replace him with Poyer and then Rap goes back to

2041
01:45:22,240 --> 01:45:24,880
Speaker 16: Poyer spot. And I've liked the looks they've done, So

2042
01:45:25,000 --> 01:45:27,080
Speaker 16: Sean McDermott kind of going back to is a little

2043
01:45:27,080 --> 01:45:30,120
Speaker 16: bit more of his Carolina days with these six up

2044
01:45:30,120 --> 01:45:33,680
Speaker 16: at the line of scrimmage, looks the double mug linebackers

2045
01:45:33,760 --> 01:45:36,360
Speaker 16: and it's really tough to see who's coming. Well, then

2046
01:45:36,400 --> 01:45:39,080
Speaker 16: you have Poyer up there as well, and he's got

2047
01:45:39,160 --> 01:45:41,240
Speaker 16: some serious speed. We heard Eric Washington in the press

2048
01:45:41,240 --> 01:45:45,120
Speaker 16: conference earlier as we talk about how great Jordan Poyer

2049
01:45:45,280 --> 01:45:47,240
Speaker 16: is blitzing, and that's part of the reason that they

2050
01:45:47,320 --> 01:45:49,479
Speaker 16: have him in that role and maybe not have him

2051
01:45:49,520 --> 01:45:51,560
Speaker 16: on the back end and Taylor Rap up closer to

2052
01:45:51,640 --> 01:45:54,400
Speaker 16: line of scrimmage at that linebacker level, and so Poyer's

2053
01:45:55,040 --> 01:45:59,799
Speaker 16: enjoying this role, it appears, and the defense is extremely

2054
01:46:00,320 --> 01:46:02,800
Speaker 16: when you add Taylor Rap on the field in those

2055
01:46:02,840 --> 01:46:05,800
Speaker 16: situations and get off one of your bigger linebackers.

2056
01:46:06,160 --> 01:46:08,639
Speaker 2: All right, So let's spend this forward a little bit. Eric.

2057
01:46:08,680 --> 01:46:10,640
Speaker 2: I know it's only Monday, and it's a long way

2058
01:46:10,720 --> 01:46:13,960
Speaker 2: until Sunday night, but the Bengals look like they're back

2059
01:46:14,040 --> 01:46:18,360
Speaker 2: to form with a convincing victory over the San Francisco

2060
01:46:18,479 --> 01:46:21,640
Speaker 2: forty nine ers in San fran and they do it

2061
01:46:21,960 --> 01:46:26,080
Speaker 2: with two interceptions on the defensive side and pressure on

2062
01:46:26,160 --> 01:46:29,280
Speaker 2: brock Purty almost all day long. And Burrow looks like

2063
01:46:29,360 --> 01:46:32,080
Speaker 2: Burrow again. Going twenty eight to thirty two. We talked

2064
01:46:32,080 --> 01:46:35,040
Speaker 2: about the formula that we think is best for the

2065
01:46:35,120 --> 01:46:39,280
Speaker 2: Bills going forward to be successful. How realistic is it

2066
01:46:39,920 --> 01:46:42,639
Speaker 2: to mimic that same formula that they had last week

2067
01:46:42,760 --> 01:46:44,799
Speaker 2: against a team of this caliber.

2068
01:46:46,160 --> 01:46:47,920
Speaker 16: Well, it's going to be more difficult in at times,

2069
01:46:47,920 --> 01:46:49,800
Speaker 16: its can be more difficult to run that no huddle

2070
01:46:49,880 --> 01:46:52,200
Speaker 16: offense on the road as well, because it's harder to

2071
01:46:52,680 --> 01:46:55,080
Speaker 16: verbally communicate out there, get all of your calls and

2072
01:46:55,160 --> 01:46:57,880
Speaker 16: checks communicated everyone and not being in the huddle. So

2073
01:46:58,080 --> 01:47:00,160
Speaker 16: it'll be interesting to see how much of the no

2074
01:47:00,280 --> 01:47:02,520
Speaker 16: huddle they're running on the road in Cincinnati.

2075
01:47:02,880 --> 01:47:03,400
Speaker 5: And yeah, the.

2076
01:47:03,400 --> 01:47:05,599
Speaker 16: Bengals are are up to five and three, and at

2077
01:47:05,640 --> 01:47:07,479
Speaker 16: the beginning of the season they looked awful like they

2078
01:47:07,560 --> 01:47:10,280
Speaker 16: have kind of the past couple of years. And you know,

2079
01:47:10,439 --> 01:47:12,960
Speaker 16: Burrow gets them going at some point and then they're

2080
01:47:13,120 --> 01:47:15,639
Speaker 16: one of the better teams in the league again. And so, yeah,

2081
01:47:16,040 --> 01:47:19,120
Speaker 16: Burrows playing good football right now. And then you got

2082
01:47:19,240 --> 01:47:23,040
Speaker 16: Chase Higgins getting healthy, and so this is gonna be

2083
01:47:23,080 --> 01:47:27,120
Speaker 16: a big time matchup in Cincinnati with with major playoff implications.

2084
01:47:26,600 --> 01:47:27,000
Speaker 2: On the line.

2085
01:47:27,160 --> 01:47:30,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, you mentioned Jamar Chase t Higgins there and Tyler Boyd.

2086
01:47:30,760 --> 01:47:32,960
Speaker 3: What type of test is this going to be for

2087
01:47:33,080 --> 01:47:36,840
Speaker 3: Buffalo's defensive backs unit heading into a game where they're

2088
01:47:36,880 --> 01:47:39,800
Speaker 3: gonna have to not shut down one guy, but multiple guys.

2089
01:47:40,880 --> 01:47:43,240
Speaker 16: Yeah, this is gonna be the toughest tests they face

2090
01:47:43,320 --> 01:47:47,160
Speaker 16: in a few weeks. I mean, you know, New England Buccaneers,

2091
01:47:47,200 --> 01:47:49,920
Speaker 16: those aren't two formidable offenses in this league. And so

2092
01:47:50,080 --> 01:47:52,880
Speaker 16: this injury depleted defense that's now getting a chance to

2093
01:47:53,439 --> 01:47:55,040
Speaker 16: get their legs under him a little bit with a

2094
01:47:55,120 --> 01:47:58,120
Speaker 16: ten days rest and a little extra time game planning,

2095
01:47:58,160 --> 01:48:00,960
Speaker 16: and I'm interested to see, you know how it looks

2096
01:48:01,000 --> 01:48:04,240
Speaker 16: different this year defensively for the Bills under Sean McDermott.

2097
01:48:04,240 --> 01:48:07,040
Speaker 16: Against Cincinnati last year, coming out of the playoff game,

2098
01:48:07,080 --> 01:48:09,759
Speaker 16: there was a lot of criticism about the off coverage

2099
01:48:10,120 --> 01:48:13,960
Speaker 16: not bringing enough pressure on Burrow, not getting around him enough. Well,

2100
01:48:14,000 --> 01:48:17,800
Speaker 16: they ad Leonard Floyd, hopefully von Miller, you know, uses

2101
01:48:17,880 --> 01:48:20,640
Speaker 16: this time, this extra rest and we'll see, you know,

2102
01:48:20,880 --> 01:48:23,880
Speaker 16: add an improvement from him and his road back from

2103
01:48:23,880 --> 01:48:26,479
Speaker 16: the ACL. But you're gonna have to put some pressure

2104
01:48:26,640 --> 01:48:27,560
Speaker 16: on Burrow.

2105
01:48:27,320 --> 01:48:27,920
Speaker 5: In this game.

2106
01:48:28,280 --> 01:48:31,280
Speaker 16: And then kind of back to our point before, if

2107
01:48:31,320 --> 01:48:33,320
Speaker 16: you can play with the lead and make them one dimensional,

2108
01:48:33,600 --> 01:48:37,280
Speaker 16: that helps out tremendously when you're going on against an

2109
01:48:37,320 --> 01:48:39,080
Speaker 16: offense like Cincinnati, And.

2110
01:48:39,120 --> 01:48:41,280
Speaker 2: Speaking of that pass rush, you know, with Vaughn getting

2111
01:48:41,360 --> 01:48:43,720
Speaker 2: more snaps, he got twenty seven last week, that's the

2112
01:48:43,760 --> 01:48:46,519
Speaker 2: most he's gotten in a game since his return. And

2113
01:48:46,640 --> 01:48:51,240
Speaker 2: we continue to see Greg Russeau kicked inside for obvious reasons.

2114
01:48:51,320 --> 01:48:53,000
Speaker 2: You know, you want to get your best pass rushers

2115
01:48:53,040 --> 01:48:55,439
Speaker 2: on the field, Eric, But going into a game like

2116
01:48:55,560 --> 01:48:59,679
Speaker 2: this one against Cincinnati, knowing that Burrow gets the ball

2117
01:48:59,720 --> 01:49:04,160
Speaker 2: out super fast, is that another reason to put Rousseau inside,

2118
01:49:04,320 --> 01:49:07,080
Speaker 2: just if not for anything, to just get his hands

2119
01:49:07,160 --> 01:49:08,320
Speaker 2: up in the passing lanes.

2120
01:49:09,520 --> 01:49:10,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think so.

2121
01:49:10,720 --> 01:49:12,800
Speaker 16: And Jordan Phillips is six to six as well, so

2122
01:49:12,880 --> 01:49:15,799
Speaker 16: you get you get those guys both on the field.

2123
01:49:16,120 --> 01:49:18,280
Speaker 5: At Oliver, you want him out there as much as

2124
01:49:18,280 --> 01:49:18,479
Speaker 5: you can.

2125
01:49:18,560 --> 01:49:20,439
Speaker 16: He's one of the best players on your team, playing

2126
01:49:20,479 --> 01:49:23,040
Speaker 16: incredible football right now. But if you get a lot

2127
01:49:23,120 --> 01:49:26,000
Speaker 16: of height inside, yes, you can clog up some of

2128
01:49:26,040 --> 01:49:29,080
Speaker 16: those passing lanes with Rousseau out there on the field,

2129
01:49:29,439 --> 01:49:31,920
Speaker 16: And so yeah, I definitely think you could see some

2130
01:49:32,040 --> 01:49:32,160
Speaker 16: of that.

2131
01:49:32,280 --> 01:49:33,479
Speaker 5: Sunday night, the.

2132
01:49:33,479 --> 01:49:36,799
Speaker 3: Bengals tie for forth with thirteen takeaways, and the Bills

2133
01:49:36,840 --> 01:49:40,480
Speaker 3: are up there too. They are third with fourteen takeaways.

2134
01:49:41,760 --> 01:49:44,479
Speaker 3: So since they're right next to each other, thirteen takeaways

2135
01:49:44,600 --> 01:49:48,880
Speaker 3: and fourteen takeaways, how important does the takeaway battle become

2136
01:49:49,040 --> 01:49:51,560
Speaker 3: in a game like this when you have the opportunity

2137
01:49:51,800 --> 01:49:55,400
Speaker 3: to get an offense both teams who have been and

2138
01:49:55,560 --> 01:49:58,479
Speaker 3: are within the last game operating at a high level.

2139
01:49:58,760 --> 01:50:01,840
Speaker 3: How important does the takeaway a battle and turnover battle

2140
01:50:01,880 --> 01:50:03,040
Speaker 3: but come in a game like this?

2141
01:50:04,120 --> 01:50:05,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, it becomes enormous.

2142
01:50:05,240 --> 01:50:07,679
Speaker 16: And when you're talking about two fairly even match teams,

2143
01:50:07,720 --> 01:50:10,880
Speaker 16: I believe the spread come came out at a point

2144
01:50:10,880 --> 01:50:13,519
Speaker 16: and a half might be up a little bit now,

2145
01:50:13,840 --> 01:50:16,400
Speaker 16: but regardless, you're talking about two evenly matched teams in

2146
01:50:16,439 --> 01:50:19,400
Speaker 16: the NFL. You know, show me after the game the

2147
01:50:19,840 --> 01:50:23,920
Speaker 16: turnover ratio and the red zone efficiency for both teams

2148
01:50:23,960 --> 01:50:26,680
Speaker 16: and you'll probably see who's gonna win this football game?

2149
01:50:27,560 --> 01:50:29,600
Speaker 2: All right, Eric, thanks as always for the insight. I

2150
01:50:29,640 --> 01:50:31,800
Speaker 2: appreciate you joining us here a couple of days after

2151
01:50:31,920 --> 01:50:34,080
Speaker 2: the fact, and we'll catch up with you next week.

2152
01:50:35,400 --> 01:50:36,639
Speaker 5: Sounds good, guys, have great week.

2153
01:50:36,680 --> 01:50:39,280
Speaker 2: All right. That's Eric Wood joining us here on One

2154
01:50:39,360 --> 01:50:42,600
Speaker 2: Bill's Live as he does every Monday after games, and

2155
01:50:42,720 --> 01:50:45,479
Speaker 2: he'll do the same next week on a lot shorter

2156
01:50:45,600 --> 01:50:50,320
Speaker 2: sleep after the Sunday night game. Got nothing but primetimers

2157
01:50:50,360 --> 01:50:53,800
Speaker 2: and four o'clockers here, Maddie for a long stretch. Nothing.

2158
01:50:53,920 --> 01:50:56,599
Speaker 2: We don't have a one o'clock until week seventeen. Yeah,

2159
01:50:56,760 --> 01:51:00,960
Speaker 2: we're like eight weeks away from that New Year's Eve. Yeah, exactly,

2160
01:51:01,080 --> 01:51:02,680
Speaker 2: that's how far away it is. I mean it's not

2161
01:51:02,720 --> 01:51:03,920
Speaker 2: even a Halloween yet, can.

2162
01:51:03,960 --> 01:51:06,280
Speaker 4: Be next year when we see another one game.

2163
01:51:07,040 --> 01:51:10,040
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's pretty interesting. We've been asking you today

2164
01:51:10,360 --> 01:51:12,679
Speaker 2: for your thoughts on how you think the AFC East

2165
01:51:12,840 --> 01:51:15,800
Speaker 2: is going to shake out when we get to the

2166
01:51:15,960 --> 01:51:19,160
Speaker 2: end of the regular season in two months time. So

2167
01:51:20,320 --> 01:51:23,200
Speaker 2: if you have a take on that, feel free to

2168
01:51:23,280 --> 01:51:25,000
Speaker 2: call us at eight oh three zero five fifty one

2169
01:51:25,120 --> 01:51:27,320
Speaker 2: eight eight five fifty two five fifty the number to

2170
01:51:27,360 --> 01:51:29,920
Speaker 2: get on board. But we do want to check back

2171
01:51:29,960 --> 01:51:32,000
Speaker 2: on the tweet sheet because we've neglected it here for

2172
01:51:32,040 --> 01:51:37,000
Speaker 2: a little bit to get some thoughts there. And who

2173
01:51:37,040 --> 01:51:38,800
Speaker 2: are we up to here? I think we were up

2174
01:51:38,840 --> 01:51:42,600
Speaker 2: to Aaron on the tweet sheet. I think who says Unfortunately,

2175
01:51:43,200 --> 01:51:45,800
Speaker 2: I think the Dolphins win it because the rest of

2176
01:51:45,840 --> 01:51:50,280
Speaker 2: their schedule is much easier. Bills still have Eagles Bengals, Cowboys,

2177
01:51:50,320 --> 01:51:54,599
Speaker 2: and Chiefs. I kind of partially agree with you, because

2178
01:51:54,600 --> 01:51:59,280
Speaker 2: I think the Dolphins also have the Chiefs and the Cowboys.

2179
01:51:59,479 --> 01:52:03,680
Speaker 2: They've all already lost to the Eagles, and they did

2180
01:52:03,800 --> 01:52:08,640
Speaker 2: already play the Bengals, still have the Cowboys, and oh no,

2181
01:52:08,680 --> 01:52:11,400
Speaker 2: they don't play the Bengals. They play the Ravens instead

2182
01:52:11,400 --> 01:52:14,080
Speaker 2: of the Bengals. That was the crush this. Yeah, they're

2183
01:52:14,160 --> 01:52:16,360
Speaker 2: at Baltimore in like week seventeen.

2184
01:52:16,520 --> 01:52:17,719
Speaker 4: Yep, that can be difficult.

2185
01:52:17,760 --> 01:52:20,280
Speaker 2: That's a tough game. And they have Dallas still, so

2186
01:52:20,720 --> 01:52:23,439
Speaker 2: their schedule is pretty stiff. The team in the division

2187
01:52:23,520 --> 01:52:27,800
Speaker 2: that whose schedule lightens up considerably is the Jets because

2188
01:52:27,800 --> 01:52:31,439
Speaker 2: they've played a lot of these teams already, which, like

2189
01:52:31,520 --> 01:52:33,800
Speaker 2: I said earlier, to come out of that four and

2190
01:52:33,880 --> 01:52:36,679
Speaker 2: three without your starting quarterback for all of four plays,

2191
01:52:37,479 --> 01:52:41,080
Speaker 2: that's a pretty good show. But you know, Houston, Atlanta,

2192
01:52:41,680 --> 01:52:48,479
Speaker 2: Las Vegas, even Washington like those aren't tough games. So

2193
01:52:49,439 --> 01:52:52,120
Speaker 2: Jets kind of have a favorable look at it here

2194
01:52:52,880 --> 01:52:56,479
Speaker 2: over the last nine. If they can get just enough offense,

2195
01:52:57,280 --> 01:52:59,680
Speaker 2: you know, they could be in business and stay in

2196
01:52:59,720 --> 01:53:02,120
Speaker 2: the hunt, so to speak, because they're right on Buffalo's

2197
01:53:02,160 --> 01:53:06,240
Speaker 2: heels right now. Jet on the tweets Sheet says Bills

2198
01:53:06,320 --> 01:53:08,679
Speaker 2: and Dolphins will continue to battle for the top spot

2199
01:53:08,760 --> 01:53:12,040
Speaker 2: in the division. The last game of the regular season

2200
01:53:12,120 --> 01:53:15,280
Speaker 2: will probably decide it. How likely do you think that happens, Maddie,

2201
01:53:15,320 --> 01:53:18,160
Speaker 2: We get to the last week and it's for all

2202
01:53:18,280 --> 01:53:20,360
Speaker 2: the marbles. I think the chances are.

2203
01:53:21,000 --> 01:53:25,120
Speaker 3: I think it could happen, knowing these two teams and

2204
01:53:25,240 --> 01:53:28,240
Speaker 3: how they've played so far and how we can guess

2205
01:53:28,280 --> 01:53:32,040
Speaker 3: they're gonna play. Dolphins are six and two, the Bills

2206
01:53:32,080 --> 01:53:35,160
Speaker 3: are five and three. I think this could come down

2207
01:53:35,320 --> 01:53:37,959
Speaker 3: to the last game. Now, you look at the divisional

2208
01:53:38,040 --> 01:53:42,280
Speaker 3: games left, and the Dolphins have already played the Patriots twice.

2209
01:53:42,640 --> 01:53:44,600
Speaker 3: They haven't seen the Jets yet, so they still have

2210
01:53:44,680 --> 01:53:46,920
Speaker 3: to see the Jets twice. They've played the Bills once,

2211
01:53:47,080 --> 01:53:49,240
Speaker 3: obviously that was a loss, and they're gonna get the

2212
01:53:49,280 --> 01:53:51,679
Speaker 3: Bills in the final game of the regular season.

2213
01:53:52,160 --> 01:53:55,440
Speaker 4: So I think it's a possibility.

2214
01:53:55,479 --> 01:53:57,439
Speaker 3: The Bills still have to play the Jets again, They've

2215
01:53:57,439 --> 01:53:59,840
Speaker 3: got to see the Patriots again, and they've got the

2216
01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:00,599
Speaker 3: Dolphins again.

2217
01:54:01,280 --> 01:54:05,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. The only thing that worries me a little, and

2218
01:54:05,680 --> 01:54:07,560
Speaker 2: this doesn't come into play as much as head to

2219
01:54:07,640 --> 01:54:12,599
Speaker 2: head does, thankfully with a division opponent. But Buffalo right

2220
01:54:12,640 --> 01:54:15,320
Speaker 2: now one and two in the division, Miami two and

2221
01:54:15,479 --> 01:54:17,920
Speaker 2: one in the division, So there's some ground to make

2222
01:54:18,040 --> 01:54:20,680
Speaker 2: up there, in addition to being just one game back

2223
01:54:20,760 --> 01:54:26,719
Speaker 2: and overall record conference record two doesn't come in until

2224
01:54:26,800 --> 01:54:28,759
Speaker 2: later when you're dealing with a team in your division

2225
01:54:28,800 --> 01:54:31,640
Speaker 2: on a tiebreaker. But Buffalo two and three in the

2226
01:54:31,720 --> 01:54:36,840
Speaker 2: conference and Miami four and one, they've won their AFC.

2227
01:54:36,600 --> 01:54:39,840
Speaker 4: Games, So Miami's got some ground to make up.

2228
01:54:40,000 --> 01:54:41,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, got some ground to make up in a couple

2229
01:54:41,880 --> 01:54:47,240
Speaker 2: of those different areas for sure. Ed on the tweet

2230
01:54:47,280 --> 01:54:51,560
Speaker 2: sheet says, unless Tua implodes and the Dolphins have a

2231
01:54:51,680 --> 01:54:55,040
Speaker 2: rash of injuries, it looks like the Dolphins take the

2232
01:54:55,160 --> 01:54:58,480
Speaker 2: top spot. It's only one game edge there, Ed, hang

2233
01:54:58,560 --> 01:55:01,000
Speaker 2: in there, Come on, come on some faith. I mean

2234
01:55:01,480 --> 01:55:06,040
Speaker 2: we're only halfway through it. I still don't think. I mean, maybe,

2235
01:55:06,040 --> 01:55:08,800
Speaker 2: aside from you know, the week two to four stretch

2236
01:55:08,840 --> 01:55:12,640
Speaker 2: when the Bills were putting up crazy points, I don't

2237
01:55:12,680 --> 01:55:17,240
Speaker 2: know that the full breath of what this passing game

2238
01:55:17,360 --> 01:55:22,320
Speaker 2: can do has been realized yet, even by the team itself.

2239
01:55:22,800 --> 01:55:25,720
Speaker 2: And like a lot of us have said, today. I

2240
01:55:25,960 --> 01:55:28,880
Speaker 2: think we got a taste of it last Thursday night.

2241
01:55:29,400 --> 01:55:31,240
Speaker 2: I don't even think we got the full meal yet,

2242
01:55:31,400 --> 01:55:34,320
Speaker 2: if you know what I mean. So I'm really hoping

2243
01:55:34,400 --> 01:55:38,000
Speaker 2: our caller from earlier, I think it was Jay who

2244
01:55:38,480 --> 01:55:41,680
Speaker 2: was saying, you know, I want to see them rise

2245
01:55:41,800 --> 01:55:43,720
Speaker 2: to the caliber of the teams that they're playing, because

2246
01:55:43,720 --> 01:55:46,040
Speaker 2: that's what they've done historically. Like the bigger the stakes,

2247
01:55:46,080 --> 01:55:48,720
Speaker 2: the better they play. If that's the case, the Bills

2248
01:55:48,760 --> 01:55:51,400
Speaker 2: could be in business here because Miami has not been

2249
01:55:51,440 --> 01:55:54,160
Speaker 2: able to do that so far this season when they've

2250
01:55:54,200 --> 01:55:58,040
Speaker 2: played the big dogs so to speak. Yep, Buffalo has

2251
01:55:58,080 --> 01:56:00,640
Speaker 2: shown an ability to do that. In the asked if

2252
01:56:00,680 --> 01:56:04,600
Speaker 2: they can do that again here, that could be pretty important,

2253
01:56:04,720 --> 01:56:08,720
Speaker 2: knowing they're playing teams the caliber of Cincinnati, Dallas, Philadelphia,

2254
01:56:08,840 --> 01:56:12,800
Speaker 2: Kansas City exactly. So that's that's what I'm hoping for.

2255
01:56:12,960 --> 01:56:15,280
Speaker 2: I mean, if they can keep on doing that, If

2256
01:56:15,280 --> 01:56:17,640
Speaker 2: that's what you do, keep doing it, because we got

2257
01:56:17,680 --> 01:56:18,760
Speaker 2: a gauntlet coming up here.

2258
01:56:19,000 --> 01:56:19,960
Speaker 4: They've been able to do it.

2259
01:56:20,080 --> 01:56:21,840
Speaker 3: And if this is a team that can rise to

2260
01:56:21,960 --> 01:56:25,400
Speaker 3: the occasion consistently and the Miami Dolphins, on the other hand,

2261
01:56:25,480 --> 01:56:28,880
Speaker 3: cannot do that, I mean, let's go bring it. This

2262
01:56:29,080 --> 01:56:32,680
Speaker 3: team has done in the past too, They've they've been

2263
01:56:32,720 --> 01:56:35,480
Speaker 3: able to hang with some of the best teams. Now

2264
01:56:35,520 --> 01:56:37,160
Speaker 3: you want all those to end up being wins. And

2265
01:56:37,240 --> 01:56:39,240
Speaker 3: I think about the playoffs and hanging with some of

2266
01:56:39,280 --> 01:56:42,400
Speaker 3: the best teams. You know, hasn't always fared well for

2267
01:56:42,520 --> 01:56:44,880
Speaker 3: this team. But maybe this is a different version this year,

2268
01:56:44,960 --> 01:56:47,640
Speaker 3: and maybe they're gonna They're gonna start peaking at the

2269
01:56:47,800 --> 01:56:49,760
Speaker 3: right time and continue.

2270
01:56:49,360 --> 01:56:50,320
Speaker 4: On through the playoffs.

2271
01:56:50,360 --> 01:56:52,200
Speaker 3: And and maybe that means they get some of the

2272
01:56:52,240 --> 01:56:54,480
Speaker 3: guys back who are injured in the playoffs.

2273
01:56:54,800 --> 01:56:56,080
Speaker 4: That would be incredible.

2274
01:56:56,160 --> 01:56:59,280
Speaker 3: I mean, you got Vaughn who's rising right now and

2275
01:56:59,640 --> 01:57:02,280
Speaker 3: he's starting to get more and more snaps under his belt.

2276
01:57:02,320 --> 01:57:04,120
Speaker 3: You think about what could happen in the playoffs if

2277
01:57:04,160 --> 01:57:06,680
Speaker 3: you get some guys back who are either placed on

2278
01:57:06,720 --> 01:57:09,240
Speaker 3: the ir or just not not around right now.

2279
01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:11,080
Speaker 4: Could be a different story.

2280
01:57:11,640 --> 01:57:14,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, we are going to take a break here. When

2281
01:57:14,880 --> 01:57:16,640

2285
01:57:26,560 --> 01:57:29,440

Speaker 2: All right, welcome back to One Bill's Live. Chris Brown,

Speaker 2: asking you today since you watched a lot of non

2294
01:58:03,360 --> 01:58:05,280
Speaker 2: Bills football over the weekend, how do you think the

2295
01:58:05,360 --> 01:58:08,760
Speaker 2: AFC East shakes out one through four by the time

2296
01:58:08,840 --> 01:58:11,760
Speaker 2: we get to the end of the regular season, which

2297
01:58:11,840 --> 01:58:16,400
Speaker 2: stands nine games away at this juncture. One other thing

2298
01:58:16,520 --> 01:58:18,880
Speaker 2: we know the Bengals are on tap at the end

2299
01:58:18,920 --> 01:58:23,080
Speaker 2: of the week Sunday Night football in Cincinnati, and there

2300
01:58:23,160 --> 01:58:26,960
Speaker 2: was a quote from Bengals QB Joe Burrow in the

2301
01:58:27,120 --> 01:58:29,960
Speaker 2: Football Morning in America column by Peter King. He talked

2302
01:58:29,960 --> 01:58:31,640
Speaker 2: to him on the phone after the game they'll win

2303
01:58:31,760 --> 01:58:34,800
Speaker 2: over the Niners, and he said, quote, we're exactly where

2304
01:58:34,920 --> 01:58:37,520
Speaker 2: we need to be and we're gonna keep getting better.

2305
01:58:38,000 --> 01:58:42,120
Speaker 2: So they're definitely feeling themselves over there in Cincinnati, and

2306
01:58:42,560 --> 01:58:45,560
Speaker 2: we know how they can sometimes have a little bit

2307
01:58:45,600 --> 01:58:46,320
Speaker 2: of an attitude.

2308
01:58:47,160 --> 01:58:48,160
Speaker 4: They're a confident bunch.

2309
01:58:48,320 --> 01:58:51,120
Speaker 2: Yes, they're not shy about speaking out. Shall we say?

2310
01:58:51,960 --> 01:58:55,320
Speaker 2: There is a trade report coming from NFL Networks Mike

2311
01:58:55,360 --> 01:59:00,640
Speaker 2: Garafolo concerning the Giants and the Seahawks. Giants finalyzing a

2312
01:59:00,680 --> 01:59:03,200
Speaker 2: deal to send Pro Bowl defensive lineman Leonard Williams to

2313
01:59:03,240 --> 01:59:09,360
Speaker 2: the Seahawks, and it's basically a cost maneuver to give

2314
01:59:09,400 --> 01:59:13,880
Speaker 2: the Giants more financial flexibility going forward. They're going to

2315
01:59:13,920 --> 01:59:16,040
Speaker 2: have to pay Kavon Thibodau in a couple of years.

2316
01:59:16,520 --> 01:59:19,560
Speaker 2: They have other contracts. They paid Dexter Lawrence a boatload

2317
01:59:19,600 --> 01:59:22,440
Speaker 2: of money last year, and maybe if they want to

2318
01:59:22,480 --> 01:59:24,920
Speaker 2: keep Saquon after this season, they'll have to pay him

2319
01:59:24,960 --> 01:59:27,960
Speaker 2: some money. So they've got some financial decisions on the

2320
01:59:28,000 --> 01:59:31,879
Speaker 2: horizon here, so they move on. They're going to reportedly

2321
01:59:32,000 --> 01:59:35,200
Speaker 2: move on from Leonard Williams, who now goes to the Seahawks,

2322
01:59:35,240 --> 01:59:38,480
Speaker 2: and the Seahawks very quietly, Maddie, are shaping up to

2323
01:59:38,560 --> 01:59:42,760
Speaker 2: be a pretty formidable foe on the NFC side of things, which,

2324
01:59:43,080 --> 01:59:45,680
Speaker 2: as we know, isn't nearly as deep as the AFC.

2325
01:59:46,280 --> 01:59:48,680
Speaker 4: They've won five games. They're five and two.

2326
01:59:48,800 --> 01:59:50,960
Speaker 3: They have a two game win streak going right now.

2327
01:59:52,080 --> 01:59:54,520
Speaker 3: It'll be interesting to see what they can do and

2328
01:59:54,600 --> 01:59:58,040
Speaker 3: how they can run the table. And in Rapaport tweeting

2329
01:59:58,080 --> 02:00:00,800
Speaker 3: that the Giants are reportedly getting back at twenty four

2330
02:00:00,960 --> 02:00:04,720
Speaker 3: second rounder and a twenty twenty five fifth rounder, second and.

2331
02:00:04,760 --> 02:00:07,240
Speaker 2: A five for Leonard Williams. That's pretty good. I would

2332
02:00:07,280 --> 02:00:10,920
Speaker 2: swing that deal, but it's more about freeing them of

2333
02:00:11,000 --> 02:00:13,920
Speaker 2: a financial burden of the player. And I'm just gonna

2334
02:00:13,960 --> 02:00:16,960
Speaker 2: say it, Leonard Williams did not impress me in the

2335
02:00:17,160 --> 02:00:19,720
Speaker 2: least when he came to play the Bills a few

2336
02:00:19,760 --> 02:00:23,360
Speaker 2: weeks ago here in Sunday Night Football. I just don't

2337
02:00:23,640 --> 02:00:26,560
Speaker 2: notice him very much. It's weird because, I mean, that

2338
02:00:26,640 --> 02:00:28,760
Speaker 2: guy was like a top five pick in the draft

2339
02:00:29,080 --> 02:00:32,240
Speaker 2: the Jets granted and then went across the street to

2340
02:00:32,280 --> 02:00:35,880
Speaker 2: play for the Giants. But yeah, I'm I'm surprised he

2341
02:00:35,960 --> 02:00:39,280
Speaker 2: hasn't been more of an impactful player for the Giants

2342
02:00:39,320 --> 02:00:42,360
Speaker 2: this season and so they decide to move on from him.

2343
02:00:42,520 --> 02:00:47,600
Speaker 2: According to NFL Networks, Mike Garrafolo and I believe Tom

2344
02:00:47,680 --> 02:00:51,280
Speaker 2: Pellaciero so that's the latest trade news as we know.

2345
02:00:51,360 --> 02:00:56,440
Speaker 2: The deadline is tomorrow at four pm Halloween. But let's

2346
02:00:56,440 --> 02:00:58,000
Speaker 2: get to the phones at eight h three zero five

2347
02:00:58,120 --> 02:01:01,400
Speaker 2: fifty won eighty and eighty five fifty fifty the number

2348
02:01:01,440 --> 02:01:02,960
Speaker 2: to get on board open line for you. We go

2349
02:01:03,040 --> 02:01:04,840
Speaker 2: to Stan in Buffalo next. What do you got for

2350
02:01:04,920 --> 02:01:05,240
Speaker 2: a Stan?

2351
02:01:06,440 --> 02:01:09,800
Speaker 9: Hey, Brownie, Hey Maddy. Love talking to you guys, Brownie.

2352
02:01:09,800 --> 02:01:13,280
Speaker 9: I know we talked last week about some trade stuff. First,

2353
02:01:13,320 --> 02:01:16,640
Speaker 9: I just want to say on the AFCs, I'll never

2354
02:01:16,720 --> 02:01:20,560
Speaker 9: give up on the Bills, but man, we're behind in conference,

2355
02:01:20,640 --> 02:01:24,640
Speaker 9: we're behind in division. I mean one game is we

2356
02:01:24,720 --> 02:01:27,240
Speaker 9: don't just need one game, we need like two games

2357
02:01:27,360 --> 02:01:28,560
Speaker 9: or three games to come through.

2358
02:01:28,840 --> 02:01:29,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right.

2359
02:01:29,920 --> 02:01:32,960
Speaker 9: The other thing is is, I know we talked about

2360
02:01:33,480 --> 02:01:35,160
Speaker 9: I don't know. I want to pill for Denver. I

2361
02:01:35,240 --> 02:01:38,320
Speaker 9: think everyone's for sale there. We talked about Patrick's curtain

2362
02:01:38,440 --> 02:01:40,760
Speaker 9: last week. I still wish that would happen. We used

2363
02:01:40,760 --> 02:01:45,080
Speaker 9: at cornerbacks. Also, somebody on the Denver Broncos that I

2364
02:01:45,200 --> 02:01:46,760
Speaker 9: really like, and I think you'd be a great for

2365
02:01:46,880 --> 02:01:48,520
Speaker 9: the fit for the Bills, And I don't know if

2366
02:01:48,560 --> 02:01:51,520
Speaker 9: it can happen. Is Courtland Sutton I'm gonna hang up

2367
02:01:51,560 --> 02:01:52,320
Speaker 9: and listen to you guys.

2368
02:01:52,680 --> 02:01:56,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Cortland Sutton. Yeah, let's just take the

2369
02:01:56,080 --> 02:01:58,520
Speaker 2: guy that's been killing it for them all season long. Well,

2370
02:01:58,560 --> 02:02:00,880
Speaker 2: we'll take him, thanks very much. I wish it was

2371
02:02:00,920 --> 02:02:04,560
Speaker 2: that easy, Stan, I do I understand why you're interested

2372
02:02:04,600 --> 02:02:08,360
Speaker 2: in him. He's having a fantastic season for them. Jerry

2373
02:02:08,440 --> 02:02:11,480
Speaker 2: Judy's the one that's been disappointing, you know, in terms

2374
02:02:11,520 --> 02:02:16,600
Speaker 2: of his lack of consistency. So the interesting thing, and

2375
02:02:16,680 --> 02:02:18,480
Speaker 2: we mentioned it a little bit earlier in the show.

2376
02:02:19,160 --> 02:02:22,400
Speaker 2: So Sean Payton addressing the media today after their second

2377
02:02:22,400 --> 02:02:26,600
Speaker 2: straight win yesterday over the Chiefs, said, none of our

2378
02:02:26,720 --> 02:02:31,480
Speaker 2: guys are being sold at this point, so don't expect anything.

2379
02:02:32,240 --> 02:02:36,080
Speaker 2: And could that be posturing and just Sean Payton trying

2380
02:02:36,120 --> 02:02:39,400
Speaker 2: to drive up the asking price on the players on

2381
02:02:39,520 --> 02:02:43,200
Speaker 2: his roster to get more out of other coaches in

2382
02:02:43,280 --> 02:02:47,280
Speaker 2: the league or gms perhaps, But you also have to

2383
02:02:47,600 --> 02:02:51,000
Speaker 2: think about how the season suddenly looks now. They're three

2384
02:02:51,080 --> 02:02:55,040
Speaker 2: and five, they've won two in a row, they're playing better,

2385
02:02:55,240 --> 02:02:59,440
Speaker 2: their defense is playing amazing right now. I can't see

2386
02:02:59,560 --> 02:03:05,200
Speaker 2: them having a fire sale because the complexion of their

2387
02:03:05,280 --> 02:03:09,840
Speaker 2: season has changed pretty dramatically between now and what it

2388
02:03:09,960 --> 02:03:12,120
Speaker 2: was just three weeks ago when they were a one

2389
02:03:12,200 --> 02:03:16,760
Speaker 2: win football team, So I think that may give them

2390
02:03:16,920 --> 02:03:21,440
Speaker 2: pause in throwing people overboard for the sake of draft capital.

2391
02:03:21,480 --> 02:03:25,880
Speaker 2: I think things are tight enough because the Raiders aren't

2392
02:03:25,920 --> 02:03:29,320
Speaker 2: part of the conversation in their division. And I believe

2393
02:03:29,560 --> 02:03:33,560
Speaker 2: the Chargers are either three and five or three and four.

2394
02:03:33,640 --> 02:03:36,240
Speaker 2: I can't remember if they had to buy yet. So

2395
02:03:36,360 --> 02:03:39,560
Speaker 2: they're right there, right behind the Chiefs, and they have

2396
02:03:39,960 --> 02:03:42,040
Speaker 2: a game in hand on the Chiefs, having just beaten

2397
02:03:42,080 --> 02:03:45,960
Speaker 2: them head to head. So I think they feel like, hey,

2398
02:03:46,080 --> 02:03:47,960
Speaker 2: we keep putting this together, we may be able to

2399
02:03:48,000 --> 02:03:50,680
Speaker 2: have a shot at this thing. And I can't see

2400
02:03:50,720 --> 02:03:53,120
Speaker 2: them moving on from somebody and then to take it

2401
02:03:53,120 --> 02:03:55,839
Speaker 2: a step further, Maddie, as we were talking about earlier,

2402
02:03:56,240 --> 02:03:59,440
Speaker 2: this offense is just starting to diversify itself.

2403
02:03:59,160 --> 02:04:02,240
Speaker 3: And define so Rolls, Yeah, I was gonna say I

2404
02:04:02,600 --> 02:04:06,120
Speaker 3: would look elsewhere before looking at the wide receiver room

2405
02:04:06,320 --> 02:04:08,480
Speaker 3: if you want to add to position groups. I think

2406
02:04:08,520 --> 02:04:11,160
Speaker 3: they have plenty of guys, and like you said, they've

2407
02:04:11,200 --> 02:04:14,640
Speaker 3: started to define some roles. We saw a lot from

2408
02:04:14,760 --> 02:04:17,960
Speaker 3: Khalul Shakir last week against the Bucks. Could we see

2409
02:04:18,040 --> 02:04:22,000
Speaker 3: more going forward? Gabe Davis is still a factor. We

2410
02:04:22,080 --> 02:04:25,280
Speaker 3: saw him have another touchdown. He's got five so far

2411
02:04:25,400 --> 02:04:28,800
Speaker 3: this season. Stefan Diggs, their best wide receiver out there,

2412
02:04:28,960 --> 02:04:32,480
Speaker 3: continues to make plays and continues to rack up the

2413
02:04:32,560 --> 02:04:35,240
Speaker 3: stat sheet in terms of what he's doing. Don't Kinkaid

2414
02:04:35,320 --> 02:04:38,040
Speaker 3: could be used even more going forward. I don't know

2415
02:04:38,160 --> 02:04:41,160
Speaker 3: if there's enough ball to spread around even between all

2416
02:04:41,240 --> 02:04:43,760
Speaker 3: the guys that are currently on this roster, let alone

2417
02:04:43,840 --> 02:04:46,120
Speaker 3: thinking about adding another guy into the room.

2418
02:04:46,280 --> 02:04:49,120
Speaker 2: And then the most important factor here is can you

2419
02:04:49,200 --> 02:04:52,880
Speaker 2: fit the money? And Cortland Sutton is making a base

2420
02:04:52,960 --> 02:04:55,720
Speaker 2: salary of fourteen million dollars this year, It's going to

2421
02:04:55,800 --> 02:04:59,200
Speaker 2: be seven and change left on that tab if the

2422
02:04:59,280 --> 02:05:03,080
Speaker 2: Bills so somehow miraculously we're able to acquire him. They

2423
02:05:03,200 --> 02:05:05,760
Speaker 2: can't fit that under their camp right now, and I

2424
02:05:05,960 --> 02:05:08,480
Speaker 2: can't see the Broncos moving him because he's a twenty

2425
02:05:08,560 --> 02:05:11,080
Speaker 2: five million dollar dead camp hit, So it doesn't make

2426
02:05:11,120 --> 02:05:14,400
Speaker 2: sense for the Broncos. As far as Buffalo's finances, they

2427
02:05:14,440 --> 02:05:17,400
Speaker 2: can't fit it unless they send dollars out in the

2428
02:05:17,480 --> 02:05:21,200
Speaker 2: form of a player as well of pretty notable means

2429
02:05:21,400 --> 02:05:23,440
Speaker 2: by the way, not like a minimum salary guy. You

2430
02:05:23,520 --> 02:05:25,520
Speaker 2: got to send somebody out that's making a good buck

2431
02:05:26,040 --> 02:05:28,840
Speaker 2: to even try to make that work. So good name,

2432
02:05:29,320 --> 02:05:35,360
Speaker 2: good player, bad money fit ultimately, And again, as Maddy

2433
02:05:35,400 --> 02:05:38,280
Speaker 2: and I were saying, the offense was just showing signs

2434
02:05:38,320 --> 02:05:41,680
Speaker 2: of life diversification and defining some roles here that we

2435
02:05:41,720 --> 02:05:44,560
Speaker 2: hadn't seen through the first five weeks. Let's let it

2436
02:05:44,640 --> 02:05:47,879
Speaker 2: percolate a little bit and see if it maximizes itself

2437
02:05:48,280 --> 02:05:51,840
Speaker 2: going forward. Eighth three zero, five point fifty one eighty

2438
02:05:51,960 --> 02:05:53,920
Speaker 2: eight five point fifty two, five fifty the number to

2439
02:05:53,960 --> 02:05:56,320
Speaker 2: get on board. Want to check a couple more comments

2440
02:05:56,800 --> 02:05:59,760
Speaker 2: on the tweet sheet that we did not get to yet.

2441
02:06:00,080 --> 02:06:03,520
Speaker 2: And Andrew is up next, and he says, without a doubt,

2442
02:06:03,640 --> 02:06:07,000
Speaker 2: Miami's most likely going to win the AFC East Division

2443
02:06:07,360 --> 02:06:11,160
Speaker 2: unless for some unexplainable reason they decide to start losing games,

2444
02:06:11,320 --> 02:06:13,640
Speaker 2: which I don't see happening. They are definitely going to

2445
02:06:13,680 --> 02:06:16,200
Speaker 2: be a force to be reckoned with ps. I still

2446
02:06:16,240 --> 02:06:19,839
Speaker 2: hate Miami Go Bills, all right. So it's just Andrew's

2447
02:06:19,920 --> 02:06:22,240
Speaker 2: just got a healthy respect for the Dolphins. And you

2448
02:06:22,400 --> 02:06:24,920
Speaker 2: understand why. I mean, they got the highest scoring offense

2449
02:06:24,960 --> 02:06:29,200
Speaker 2: in football. Number one rushing offense, number one passing offense,

2450
02:06:30,520 --> 02:06:33,480
Speaker 2: number one total yards per play. They're just a big

2451
02:06:33,640 --> 02:06:36,440
Speaker 2: play waiting to happen each and every week. And they've

2452
02:06:36,480 --> 02:06:39,240
Speaker 2: been able to navigate themselves through some injuries too. Most

2453
02:06:39,280 --> 02:06:42,600
Speaker 2: are missed some time has come back. Devon ah Chan

2454
02:06:42,920 --> 02:06:46,320
Speaker 2: still on ir hasn't come back. Tyreek Hill had some

2455
02:06:46,480 --> 02:06:49,480
Speaker 2: hip injury, was able to play last week. Jalen Waddle

2456
02:06:49,640 --> 02:06:53,040
Speaker 2: leaves the Eagles game with a bad back, comes back

2457
02:06:53,120 --> 02:06:55,720
Speaker 2: and plays this week and has the clinching touchdown at

2458
02:06:55,720 --> 02:06:57,920
Speaker 2: the end of the game against the Patriots. So they

2459
02:06:58,440 --> 02:07:00,760
Speaker 2: and they've been able to navigate a bad offensive line

2460
02:07:00,840 --> 02:07:04,840
Speaker 2: due to injury two So even though they've been shorthanded

2461
02:07:04,880 --> 02:07:08,360
Speaker 2: at times, they've managed to find a way to still

2462
02:07:08,400 --> 02:07:10,400
Speaker 2: win football games. And that's why they sit a top

2463
02:07:10,440 --> 02:07:12,920
Speaker 2: to division at six and two. But as we have said, Mandy,

2464
02:07:12,960 --> 02:07:17,520
Speaker 2: there are some pitfalls on that schedule with some super opponents.

2465
02:07:17,200 --> 02:07:19,360
Speaker 3: And when they've been tested, when they've played the really

2466
02:07:19,400 --> 02:07:22,720
Speaker 3: good teams. They've lost their two losses to the Bills

2467
02:07:22,840 --> 02:07:25,320
Speaker 3: and Eagles. Let's see what they can do with the

2468
02:07:25,440 --> 02:07:28,680
Speaker 3: Chiefs this week and neutral game site. I know it's

2469
02:07:28,760 --> 02:07:31,680
Speaker 3: technically a home game for the Chiefs, but they'll be

2470
02:07:31,760 --> 02:07:34,800
Speaker 3: in Germany, so let's see how that goes. This is

2471
02:07:34,840 --> 02:07:37,560
Speaker 3: a halfway point in the season where teams are truly

2472
02:07:37,640 --> 02:07:40,880
Speaker 3: starting to figure themselves out, what their identity is, what

2473
02:07:40,960 --> 02:07:43,480
Speaker 3: they're going to be about, what their strengths are, what

2474
02:07:44,960 --> 02:07:47,840
Speaker 3: they lack with, what they're not is good with, and

2475
02:07:47,960 --> 02:07:48,440
Speaker 3: let's see what.

2476
02:07:48,440 --> 02:07:50,720
Speaker 4: They well, let's see what happens. Who runs the table.

2477
02:07:50,800 --> 02:07:53,440
Speaker 3: The Chiefs are coming off of a loss, a bad

2478
02:07:53,560 --> 02:07:56,560
Speaker 3: loss to the Broncos where they only scored nine points.

2479
02:07:58,080 --> 02:07:59,920
Speaker 3: The Dolphins, on the other hand, to score thirty one

2480
02:08:00,120 --> 02:08:01,640
Speaker 3: points against the Patriots.

2481
02:08:02,360 --> 02:08:05,520
Speaker 2: Yep, Yeah, I think that's gonna be a fit. That's

2482
02:08:05,560 --> 02:08:08,480
Speaker 2: going to be a highly watched nine am.

2483
02:08:08,360 --> 02:08:12,400
Speaker 4: Game from Yeah, get my coffee, sit on the couch.

2484
02:08:12,920 --> 02:08:15,840
Speaker 2: Let her rip. Yeah, because it's a long day before

2485
02:08:16,480 --> 02:08:19,960
Speaker 2: before the Bills game. Steve on the tweets sheet says

2486
02:08:20,240 --> 02:08:23,560
Speaker 2: Week eighteen against the Dolphins will decide the division. We

2487
02:08:23,600 --> 02:08:26,520
Speaker 2: talked about this earlier and the chances of this happening

2488
02:08:27,080 --> 02:08:29,440
Speaker 2: if you try to handicap the schedule and pick wins

2489
02:08:29,520 --> 02:08:32,360
Speaker 2: and losses. There's some tough games in front of Buffalo

2490
02:08:32,560 --> 02:08:35,120
Speaker 2: and in front of Miami, and knowing there's only a

2491
02:08:35,240 --> 02:08:39,320
Speaker 2: game in overall record that separates them, you can find

2492
02:08:39,400 --> 02:08:42,920
Speaker 2: yourself very easily getting to a place where you say, oh,

2493
02:08:43,000 --> 02:08:45,360
Speaker 2: you know what, the Bills in Miami might be dead

2494
02:08:45,400 --> 02:08:47,920
Speaker 2: even by the time we get to week eighteen. It's

2495
02:08:48,160 --> 02:08:50,680
Speaker 2: a distinct possibility. I don't think we can rule it out,

2496
02:08:51,680 --> 02:08:54,839
Speaker 2: knowing that both teams have a handful of tough opponents

2497
02:08:54,880 --> 02:08:58,080
Speaker 2: to play against, and Lord knows there's always one surprise

2498
02:08:58,120 --> 02:08:58,640
Speaker 2: in there too.

2499
02:09:00,000 --> 02:09:00,680
Speaker 4: It's definitely true.

2500
02:09:00,960 --> 02:09:04,160
Speaker 2: Denver suddenly looks like a more formidable opponent after how

2501
02:09:04,200 --> 02:09:06,240
Speaker 2: they've played the last couple of weeks. Granted they have

2502
02:09:06,320 --> 02:09:06,800
Speaker 2: to come here.

2503
02:09:07,360 --> 02:09:09,320
Speaker 4: Cowboys just scored a whole lot of points in the

2504
02:09:10,000 --> 02:09:10,480
Speaker 4: forty three.

2505
02:09:10,520 --> 02:09:15,360
Speaker 2: I think it was right. So yeah, it's a It's

2506
02:09:15,400 --> 02:09:18,760
Speaker 2: gonna be a tough road to hoe, for sure. Jamie

2507
02:09:18,960 --> 02:09:21,880
Speaker 2: on the tweets sheet says Tua has never made it

2508
02:09:21,920 --> 02:09:25,200
Speaker 2: through a season in college or the pros and always

2509
02:09:25,280 --> 02:09:28,480
Speaker 2: swoons once the weather changes. Expect more of the same,

2510
02:09:28,920 --> 02:09:31,800
Speaker 2: and Tyreek will pull a hamstring once he plays in

2511
02:09:31,920 --> 02:09:35,960
Speaker 2: cold weather. Bill's will pull away at the end. So

2512
02:09:36,240 --> 02:09:39,480
Speaker 2: Jamie is relying on injury in the weather to win

2513
02:09:39,560 --> 02:09:42,680
Speaker 2: the division. Yeah, cold Weather, I know, to his record

2514
02:09:43,120 --> 02:09:46,280
Speaker 2: in below thirty two degrees is not good. I think

2515
02:09:46,320 --> 02:09:49,400
Speaker 2: he might have one win, maybe two, but it's not

2516
02:09:49,760 --> 02:09:53,760
Speaker 2: favorable to say the least. So yeah, Actually we should

2517
02:09:53,760 --> 02:09:57,440
Speaker 2: take a look at the Miami schedule again and see

2518
02:09:57,560 --> 02:10:00,920
Speaker 2: how many games are in northern because as we know,

2519
02:10:01,040 --> 02:10:03,680
Speaker 2: the Bills are playing at Miami in week eighteen, so

2520
02:10:03,760 --> 02:10:05,800
Speaker 2: that one's off the table. But they do have to

2521
02:10:05,840 --> 02:10:09,320
Speaker 2: go to Baltimore on New Year's Eve. They have to

2522
02:10:09,400 --> 02:10:14,080
Speaker 2: go to New York the Jets just before Thanksgiving, Washington

2523
02:10:14,760 --> 02:10:17,760
Speaker 2: and Washington. Yeah, so there might be a couple of

2524
02:10:17,840 --> 02:10:20,200
Speaker 2: games in there. I don't know if it's getting freezing,

2525
02:10:20,480 --> 02:10:23,520
Speaker 2: not a lot. The Baltimore game probably is the only one.

2526
02:10:23,920 --> 02:10:26,240
Speaker 2: And you wonder if Baltimore is still sore about that

2527
02:10:27,160 --> 02:10:29,720
Speaker 2: come from a head loss they had to the Dolphins

2528
02:10:29,800 --> 02:10:31,480
Speaker 2: last year. You remember that one. They were up by

2529
02:10:31,600 --> 02:10:36,080
Speaker 2: like twenty something points and choked on a chicken bone

2530
02:10:36,080 --> 02:10:41,600
Speaker 2: and lost the game. So Baltimore might have some mojo

2531
02:10:42,160 --> 02:10:45,240
Speaker 2: going into that one. John on the tweets sheet says,

2532
02:10:45,920 --> 02:10:49,640
Speaker 2: this is my off day. This AFC East talk is stressful.

2533
02:10:50,160 --> 02:10:53,000
Speaker 2: It's not beer o'clock yet. Give me some good trade

2534
02:10:53,400 --> 02:10:56,600
Speaker 2: trade deadline news first, then we could talk AFC East.

2535
02:10:56,720 --> 02:10:58,920
Speaker 2: I think this had to be our year. The team

2536
02:10:59,000 --> 02:11:01,920
Speaker 2: will be broken up on defense next year, Poyer and

2537
02:11:02,040 --> 02:11:07,240
Speaker 2: Hyde gone in my opinion, that's an interesting take. I

2538
02:11:07,320 --> 02:11:10,920
Speaker 2: believe Micah's contract is up after this year. Poyer has

2539
02:11:10,960 --> 02:11:14,919
Speaker 2: another year left, yes, so there could be some decisions

2540
02:11:14,960 --> 02:11:17,040
Speaker 2: that are made there. I don't deny that for a second.

2541
02:11:17,600 --> 02:11:20,520
Speaker 2: And let's not forget this too. Taylor Raps contracts up

2542
02:11:20,720 --> 02:11:22,360
Speaker 2: and he's a free agent again. He signed only a

2543
02:11:22,400 --> 02:11:26,160
Speaker 2: one year deal this offseason, along with the slew other players,

2544
02:11:26,200 --> 02:11:28,640
Speaker 2: particularly a defensive tackle. It was like one year city

2545
02:11:28,720 --> 02:11:31,800
Speaker 2: this year in the off season, so the roster could

2546
02:11:31,840 --> 02:11:36,800
Speaker 2: look very different next year. It's a noteworthy point that

2547
02:11:36,920 --> 02:11:40,680
Speaker 2: doesn't impact this year, and it's not built ber o'clock yet, John,

2548
02:11:41,200 --> 02:11:43,920
Speaker 2: So take your time getting there, and sorry to have

2549
02:11:43,960 --> 02:11:48,160
Speaker 2: stressed you out. The only trade deadline news we have

2550
02:11:48,440 --> 02:11:51,880
Speaker 2: is the report's out there that Leonard Fournette will be

2551
02:11:52,720 --> 02:11:57,400
Speaker 2: in Buffalo this according to Jordan Schultz of the Bleacher Report,

2552
02:11:58,000 --> 02:12:01,440
Speaker 2: and that pending of physical he will sign with the club.

2553
02:12:01,560 --> 02:12:03,680
Speaker 2: We'll wait and see if that in fact becomes official

2554
02:12:03,760 --> 02:12:07,680
Speaker 2: word from the team. Nothing official from them as of yet.

2555
02:12:08,040 --> 02:12:09,640
Speaker 2: We take a break here, Maddy and I to close

2556
02:12:09,680 --> 02:12:11,760
Speaker 2: things up. When we return on One Bill's Live, presented

2557
02:12:11,760 --> 02:12:30,240
Speaker 2: by Colida Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right. So

2558
02:12:30,400 --> 02:12:34,400
Speaker 2: if the playoffs started today, the Bills would be the

2559
02:12:34,640 --> 02:12:37,680
Speaker 2: five seed and they would have to go to Baltimore

2560
02:12:38,360 --> 02:12:41,400
Speaker 2: to play the Ravens, one of the hotter teams in

2561
02:12:41,520 --> 02:12:44,880
Speaker 2: the league right now as they are six and two,

2562
02:12:45,000 --> 02:12:47,560
Speaker 2: in a game ahead of Buffalo. So the four or

2563
02:12:47,600 --> 02:12:50,880
Speaker 2: five game would be that Buffalo at Baltimore.

2564
02:12:51,800 --> 02:12:54,200
Speaker 5: What do you think? I like it.

2565
02:12:54,400 --> 02:12:55,600
Speaker 4: I like our chances against the.

2566
02:12:55,640 --> 02:12:58,200
Speaker 2: Raids toffy, but they won their last year, and we've.

2567
02:12:58,040 --> 02:13:02,600
Speaker 3: Played well against Lamar jack and their team. Our defense

2568
02:13:02,680 --> 02:13:05,040
Speaker 3: does a really good job scheming up how to attack him,

2569
02:13:05,080 --> 02:13:07,600
Speaker 3: how to play him, how to limit him. So I

2570
02:13:07,640 --> 02:13:10,640
Speaker 3: would feel pretty confident about that matchup. I know they've

2571
02:13:10,720 --> 02:13:13,160
Speaker 3: had a hot season, and I know Lamar Jackson has

2572
02:13:13,240 --> 02:13:15,800
Speaker 3: been scoring a lot of points. He's a fantasy quarterback

2573
02:13:15,840 --> 02:13:16,640
Speaker 3: in one of my leagues and.

2574
02:13:16,720 --> 02:13:20,160
Speaker 4: He's gotten me a ton of points. Yeah, but I

2575
02:13:20,240 --> 02:13:20,920
Speaker 4: feel good about it.

2576
02:13:21,240 --> 02:13:24,560
Speaker 2: The Bills right now number one in the league, still

2577
02:13:25,280 --> 02:13:31,440
Speaker 2: in net point differential at plus eighty six. Second is

2578
02:13:31,720 --> 02:13:37,120
Speaker 2: Baltimore at plus eighty one. Both teams have a net

2579
02:13:37,280 --> 02:13:42,040
Speaker 2: touchdown number of thirteen, so thirteen more touchdowns than their

2580
02:13:42,080 --> 02:13:45,840
Speaker 2: opponents so far this season. I think it would be

2581
02:13:45,920 --> 02:13:49,040
Speaker 2: a pretty even matchup. A lot of people believe that

2582
02:13:49,320 --> 02:13:53,040
Speaker 2: the Ravens and have raised the level of Lamar Jackson's game,

2583
02:13:53,200 --> 02:13:56,760
Speaker 2: making him a more effective pocket passer, and you know

2584
02:13:56,840 --> 02:13:58,400
Speaker 2: he's still a threat with his legs as you know,

2585
02:13:58,600 --> 02:14:03,040
Speaker 2: So that would be really interesting game. But there's a

2586
02:14:03,080 --> 02:14:06,240
Speaker 2: lot of games left to play, nine to be exact

2587
02:14:06,320 --> 02:14:08,720
Speaker 2: in the regular season, so a lot can change between

2588
02:14:08,800 --> 02:14:13,800
Speaker 2: now and early January. That's gonna do it for Maddie

2589
02:14:13,840 --> 02:14:15,760
Speaker 2: and I here on a Monday, but we are going

2590
02:14:15,800 --> 02:14:18,720
Speaker 2: to come back and do it all again tomorrow. The

2591
02:14:18,840 --> 02:14:22,760
Speaker 2: only difference is we're going to be here at a

2592
02:14:22,840 --> 02:14:26,400
Speaker 2: one o'clock start on Tuesday, and we'll have ESPN's Dan

2593
02:14:26,520 --> 02:14:27,280
Speaker 2: or a Lobski with us.

2594
02:14:27,280 --> 02:14:27,440
Speaker 5: Matt.

2595
02:14:27,440 --> 02:14:29,680
Speaker 2: It'll be a good conversation. They're gonna early look at

2596
02:14:29,720 --> 02:14:32,960
Speaker 2: Cincinnati from him. I love that's tomorrow at one o'clock.

2597
02:14:33,240 --> 02:14:33,800
Speaker 2: We'll see you that
