It turned into a 101 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 2: slog as the field conditions were suspect, to say the least. 102 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,799 Speaker 3: What is it about Kansas City, Steve? With this weather 103 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 3: they seemed to get for all these games The Bills, 104 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 3: as we remember not long ago, had that big lightning 105 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 3: delay there with some fierce weather passing through. Talk to 106 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 3: me about Kansas and Missouri weather. 107 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 4: Let me just tell you this. First of all, it's 108 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 4: like the nine billionth Kansas City game and airhead we've 109 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 4: all watched. Yeah, right, so they never play anyplace else. 110 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 4: I never see Kansas City on the road. 111 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 2: It's like they have a Las Vegas residency, right, Like 112 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: they're just in Kansas City, come by us. 113 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 4: The casino built them a stadium and everything. Right, they 114 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 4: come in, they play a few slots, they go watch 115 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 4: the Chiefs. They're in residency. Yeah, so first there's that. 116 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 4: Then yeah, it gets in Kansas and I grew up 117 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 4: out there. 118 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 3: We're asking the expert here. 119 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 4: If they were in the other end of the state, 120 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 4: they'd never have a range if they put that thing out. 121 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 4: In western Kansas, they get about two inches of rain 122 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 4: a year. I mean, it's a veritable desert out there. 123 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 3: Wow. 124 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 4: But it gets really cold out there, really cold. So 125 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 4: this this rain stuff happened in Kansas City is like, 126 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 4: I don't get it. I don't get it. 127 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 3: You can't contrast to what. 128 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 4: Yes grew up. You can't buy a rainstorm out there. 129 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 4: And now every time. 130 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 3: They're at Lake the foot of the Rockies, well not 131 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 3: the foot, it's. 132 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 4: A three hour drive and then you can kind of 133 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 4: see the foothills of the Rocky. You got to go 134 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 4: halfway through at Colorado before the Rockies start, and it's 135 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,799 Speaker 4: high plains. So they're at like thirty five hundred feet 136 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 4: in western Kansas and it goes up to fifty two 137 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 4: hundred to Denver. So it's that slight uphill drive, but 138 00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 4: it's barren. It's like Fargo out there until tumbleweeds, and yes, 139 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 4: if you're lucky, but it is windy, so you go 140 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 4: up that thing. But most Kansas people would pay good 141 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 4: money to have a rainstorm every so often like they 142 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 4: do in Kansas. They did in Kansas City for these 143 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 4: football games. 144 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 3: It's crazy. The Eagles win, but not in impressive fashion. 145 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,679 Speaker 2: Seventy eight net yards of offense in the first half 146 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 2: for the Eagles Steve and seventy of them came on 147 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 2: their one touchdown drive. And then second half Philly defense 148 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: with two red zone takeaways. But Jalen Hurts wins this 149 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 2: game by running in, you know, a couple of touchdowns, 150 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty yards passing and an interception. 151 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 4: I mean him do much Philly out together. And this 152 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 4: play that we're watching here, AJ Brown, did you see 153 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 4: the interception? 154 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 3: Then? 155 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 4: AJ Brown? The guy got up A J. Brown wrenched 156 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 4: the ball away from it. They totally blew that. That 157 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 4: should have been Philly ball. 158 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 2: How different is that from a forward progress on Rasoul Douglas? 159 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 3: All right, I mean down by contact. Oh no, I 160 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 3: mean forward progress. 161 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 2: It's just it's an epidemic across this league, the officiating 162 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 2: right now. 163 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 3: Epidemic they are officiating. 164 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 4: Brownie's alluding to the officiating crew for the Bills game 165 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 4: this last week in Orchard Park that it's a first 166 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 4: year head official. But don't kid yourself now, it's not 167 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 4: a bunch of new guys. The official is in his 168 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 4: first year as a head official, but he's been an 169 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 4: official on the field for eight years and he's got 170 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 4: a bunch of veteran guys on that crew. That's the 171 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 4: way the league does it. They give a new official, 172 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 4: old codgers that do it, but to support them. Their 173 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 4: game management was horrific in Orchard Park and the last 174 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 4: night there was a couple of things like that as 175 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 4: well in the chief In the Chiefs Eagles. 176 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 2: Game, Yeah, it was something I think a lot of 177 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: people expected. 178 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 3: Fireworks. 179 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: Chiefs you could argue should have won if Mark Wesvelde 180 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 2: is Scantling comes down with the bomb from Mahomes, that's 181 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 2: right in his hands, with a minute and half right 182 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 2: in his hands. I mean the Chiefs are suffering from 183 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 2: a problem the Bills suffered from last year drops drops. 184 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 2: The Chiefs lead the league in drops. They have twenty 185 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 2: six steve through ten games played twenty six in ten games. 186 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 2: The Bills were second in the league last year with 187 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 2: thirty two at the end of the season. Now the 188 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 2: Bills only played sixteen games and we're still second in 189 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 2: the league in drops. 190 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 3: But they're on pace to shatter that. 191 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 6: Mark. 192 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, and that we said all offseason. I could remember 193 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 4: the two things we were saying, but it was turnovers, 194 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 4: which the Bills haven't fixed yet, and drops. If we 195 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 4: said if we cut those two numbers in half, the 196 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 4: Bills would be virtually unbeatable. They have not cut both 197 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 4: of them in half. The drops are way better. The 198 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 4: drops are down, The drops are way better. The turnovers 199 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 4: are not. Although you know they did a good job 200 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 4: this last week. 201 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 2: They did so with this game playing out the way 202 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 2: it did, Eagles not looking impressive, offense looking like it's 203 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 2: got some issues for the Chiefs. We're asking you at 204 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 2: eight O three oh five fifty one eight eight eight 205 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 2: five fifty two five fifty, what are your thoughts after 206 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 2: watching the Eagles beat the Chiefs, Whether you want to 207 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 2: apply it to Sunday's game against the Eagles, whether you 208 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 2: want to apply it to Buffalo's Week fourteen game against 209 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 2: the Chiefs coming up after the buye, or whether you 210 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 2: want to assess just what these two teams are going forward. 211 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 2: You let us know at aight O three oh five 212 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 2: fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty 213 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 2: the number to get on board. 214 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 3: We've got open lines for you there. 215 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 2: What you can do is you can even say, well 216 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 2: by let us know how you feel about the Bills 217 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 2: after watching the Eagles and the Chiefs knowing they got 218 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 2: to play them the next two weeks, So give us 219 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 2: kind of what your takeaway was after watching that game 220 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 2: last night and how you feel it could impact the 221 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 2: Bills going forward. We did get updates on the players 222 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 2: who were injured for the Bills in last week's game, 223 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 2: the win over the Jets, and the good news is 224 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 2: all of the tests performed on Taylor Rap were negative 225 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 2: and he actually has a chance to play on Sunday 226 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 2: against the Eagles. So that is surprisingly good news on 227 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 2: his front, considering that he got taken away in an ambulance. 228 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 2: Of course, you remember last year, Dan Jackson got taken 229 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 2: away in an ambulance back in Week two against the 230 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 2: Titans on Monday night, and he was fine. The next week, 231 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 2: he was out of practice. I don't think he played 232 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 2: the following week, but he was playing the week after 233 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 2: that at the latest. So hopefully Taylor Rap has a 234 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 2: similar trajectory in terms of getting back on the field. 235 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 2: Micah Hyde and Cam lewis day to day with stinger 236 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 2: injuries and a shoulder injury. 237 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:05,719 Speaker 3: Respectively. 238 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 2: Dan Jackson and Tarren Johnson are as expected in the 239 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 2: Concussion Protocol, And then there was an update on Dawson Knox. 240 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 2: He has missed the required four games while on injured 241 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 2: reserve after undergoing wrist surgery, but according to coach McDermott, 242 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 2: he is not yet ready to return to play from 243 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 2: injured reserve. So this looks like it's going to be 244 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 2: a rehabilitation after surgery that is going to take a little. 245 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 3: Bit longer going forward. 246 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 2: Whether it's six to eight weeks, eight to ten weeks, 247 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 2: we don't know what the prognosis is. We just know 248 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 2: he's probably not going to be ready this week to 249 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 2: return from injured reserve. 250 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, you can. You can imagine he's got to be 251 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 4: one hundred percent with his hands before he comes back. 252 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 4: Not just to forget about catching the football, how about 253 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 4: blocking defensive. 254 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 3: Hands to that risk is undergoing a lot of torque 255 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 3: every time you block. 256 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 4: And if you now they could put it, you know, 257 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 4: they could, but bundle it up with some contraption to 258 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 4: make it safe and stable and stable and and impossible 259 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 4: to break again or whatever it was that he did. 260 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 4: But he could catch. 261 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it be harder to catch You're right. 262 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's a yeah, that's gonna take time. 263 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 2: Let's go to the phones at eight oh three zero 264 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 2: five point fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two 265 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 2: five fifty the number to get on board as we 266 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 2: are asking you, what are your thoughts after watching Chiefs 267 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 2: Eagles Monday night as it pertains to the Bills or 268 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 2: just what those two teams look like in general to you? 269 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 2: Were they everything you expected them to be? Getting a 270 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 2: chance to look at them up close and personal, we 271 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 2: open the phone lines with Chris in Rochester today. 272 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 3: What do you got first? Chris? 273 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 7: Hey, how you guys doing? 274 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 3: Do it right? 275 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 8: Good? 276 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 7: So? 277 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 9: I think that if they could play. 278 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,239 Speaker 7: Like they played last week, where it was from beginning 279 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 7: to the end now unstop hard knows Buffalo Bills football, 280 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 7: that as long as they've finished the games, that they 281 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 7: could take them both. Because both those teams are really 282 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 7: good in the fourth quarter. However, that's where we've been 283 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 7: a little diminished. But I think if they can do 284 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 7: it all the way to the end, I think we 285 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 7: have one to beat them both. I'll hang up to 286 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 7: see what you guys. 287 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 3: All right, all right, thanks Chris? 288 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean playing a full sixty minutes does count 289 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 2: for something, you know. Uh, sometimes the Bills have had 290 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 2: a hard time doing that in all three phases. 291 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 3: Anyway. 292 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 2: We've seen games where the offense disappears for a quarter 293 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 2: a quarter and a half. We've seen times where special 294 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: teams hasn't played up to their standard, and we've certainly 295 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 2: seen the defense sometimes hold the team in a game 296 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 2: for fifty eight minutes and then run out of gas 297 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 2: and falter at the end. So, yeah, a sixty minute 298 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 2: effort would be a welcome thing in all three phases. 299 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 2: It's easy yer said than done. 300 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 4: Though, Yeah, And like we said, it's it's a week 301 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 4: to week league. The Bills might get a very different 302 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 4: Philly team this coming week because a couple of things. One, 303 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 4: it won't be raining. Two they're gonna be at home, 304 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 4: and that's gonna make a big difference for them. But 305 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 4: you know, there is a sense, I think in for 306 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 4: Bills fans and for me and Brownie here to watching 307 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 4: the team as closely as we do, that there is 308 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 4: sense of optimism here that they they kind of got 309 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 4: something offensively back and you know, they took whatever. It 310 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 4: looks like, you know, it looks like they greased the 311 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 4: wheels right, it looks like they got the oil can 312 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 4: out and now the thing's running a little smoother than 313 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 4: it has. That's big. I think it's gonna come down 314 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 4: to the like it always does with the Bills team. 315 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 4: No matter who they're playing, whether it's this really awesome 316 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 4: Philly team or whether it's the Patriots, pick the one 317 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 4: you want, doesn't matter. It's about the Bills. You know, 318 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 4: they got the guys that can play and win games 319 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 4: like this. But they you know, they can't throw it 320 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 4: to the wrong team. They can't cough it up, they 321 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 4: can't let the other team snap off an eighty two 322 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 4: yard run, you know, that kind of thing. But when 323 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 4: the Bills don't turn it over, they're really hard to beat, 324 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 4: really hard to beat for anybody on the road or 325 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 4: at home in Orchard Park, or in Philly, or in 326 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 4: San Francisco or Kansas City. This team, if they don't 327 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 4: turn it over, they're really hard to beat. Now that 328 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 4: also goes with this. They got to play their offense. 329 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 4: They can't just say, Okay, we're gonna kneel down for 330 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 4: a second third down so we don't turn it over, 331 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 4: and then punt it away and win. You know, I'm saying, 332 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 4: you gotta let Josh drop back and sling it wherever 333 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 4: he wants to sling it. But it comes down to 334 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 4: are the right guys catching it because you got to 335 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 4: play and when you play with Josh and this offense, 336 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 4: you got to put the ball at risk. That's just 337 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 4: the way it is. So And I don't want to 338 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 4: say it's random whether they turn it over at because 339 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 4: there is a lot of that. But I think with 340 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,880 Speaker 4: Joe Brady and I've talked about this a lot, there's 341 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 4: a huge difference between Josh accepting the check down to 342 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 4: a running back and hitting the running back actually running 343 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 4: a real route. You know, the guy just doesn't like 344 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 4: check and if they don't rush five guys and he 345 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 4: doesn't have a responsibility, he turns around and looks at 346 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 4: Josh and catches the ball if Josh wants to take it. 347 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 4: Joe Brady put these guys in routes where they're motioning 348 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 4: in setting and cross on the formation in a route 349 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 4: and Josh knows they're right there and takes it. That's different, 350 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 4: and that has given Josh the ability or the desire 351 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 4: or whatever to take that, and it has resulted in 352 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 4: some space and some big plays and some conversions for 353 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 4: the running back group, particularly early in the Jet game. 354 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 4: That made a big difference. So that did cut down 355 00:17:55,560 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 4: on the turnovers. So they keep doing that and not 356 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 4: put the ball at risk down the field so much 357 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 4: or until it's really there. 358 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:05,360 Speaker 3: Yeah. 359 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:12,400 Speaker 4: Right, this team can beat anybody on any Sunday, no 360 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 4: matter what, if they don't turn it over. Yep, Josh 361 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 4: gives them that. That kind of Josh Diggs Kincaid. This 362 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 4: offensive line, they are a handful, but they got to play, 363 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 4: and they can't just like go out there and just 364 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 4: mind their p's and cues it because they're they're not 365 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 4: playing in a vacuum. Philly can play, man, they can go. 366 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 4: So if you're gonna win, you're gonna have to have 367 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 4: it full throttle and not turn it over, putting the 368 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,239 Speaker 4: ball at risk, throwing it down the field, throwing it 369 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 4: throwing it in the tight windows, all of that stuff. 370 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 4: If they do that, they can beat anybody, and they 371 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 4: can beat they can certainly beat Philly this week. 372 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, no question. 373 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 2: Let's uh go to Kevin in Hamburg next. Kevin, what 374 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 2: do you got for us? You're on one Bill's line. 375 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 10: Particularly call sure. What I want to say is, after 376 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 10: watching the game last night, it seems like the Chiefs, 377 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 10: even though it's still good, and turning to fumble and 378 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 10: turnover machine more than they were even the last couple 379 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 10: of years. And and it seems like that they become 380 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 10: like almost so many some games, they become like when 381 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 10: the Bills were when Ken Dorsey was re coordinator, still 382 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 10: fumbling and dropping passes and stuff like that. And not 383 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,640 Speaker 10: only that, but another thing that worries me is we've 384 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 10: beaten the Chiefs in KC that big game last year 385 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 10: before the buye. We're not used to playing in that 386 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,679 Speaker 10: cauldron that Bill Parcells, the two the ones called and 387 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 10: I quote the Banana Republic of cities, We're not used 388 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 10: to now. Obviously, the Giants are their enemy when he 389 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 10: was the coach of the Giants more than the Bills are, 390 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 10: but we're not. It is one of the toughest places 391 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 10: to play. The fan base is crazier, they're nuts. I mean, 392 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 10: Krudevy's one of the toughest places to play. You asked, 393 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 10: even the great quarterbacks that played there, even the ones 394 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 10: who won the Super Bowl like eight and them say, 395 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 10: no city made me scared, nervous more than Philadelphia, and 396 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 10: it's just something that we're not used to. We've beaten 397 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 10: the Chiefs, we haven't beaten the Eagles there in a 398 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 10: long time. And they are tough. It is a tough city. 399 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 10: You don't call it the Banana Republic of Cities if 400 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 10: it was nice and mellow, and we gotta get we 401 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 10: gotta be ready for that. 402 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would agree. I mean, I think you know, 403 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 2: we know it's gonna be a tough game. I think 404 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 2: that's safe to say. 405 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 4: Okay, both I think both teams expect a real grinder, 406 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 4: right I am. 407 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 3: There is a small part of me that is glad 408 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 3: they won last night. 409 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 4: I'm with you. 410 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 2: You don't need them coming back home all ornery about 411 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 2: losing a game in Kansas City. So I am glad 412 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 2: that they came out with the victory in the game. 413 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 2: You heard Jalen Hurts in the interview after the game 414 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 2: basically say, I know that they you know, they didn't 415 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 2: play their best game. 416 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:02,120 Speaker 3: They're aware of it, so. 417 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,640 Speaker 2: That they're gonna come in ready to win another game, 418 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 2: and they're gonna be amped to play at home in 419 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 2: front of what is a hostile environment for most visiting teams. 420 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 2: Sean mcdermot's already said it. I mean, the guy grew 421 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 2: up in Philly. He knows what it's like playing there. 422 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 2: He was a coach there for twelve years as well. 423 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 2: He sees how visiting teams get treated. But I still 424 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 2: think there is a slight chance that the Eagles feel 425 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 2: pretty good about themselves. They're the only team in the 426 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,640 Speaker 2: league that has one loss. They're nine and one. 427 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 3: Now. 428 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,959 Speaker 2: Granted they play in the weaker conference and that's probably 429 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 2: a part of it. But I'm glad they won the 430 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 2: game rather than lose the game, because then I think 431 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 2: they're on edge all week and they come in even 432 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 2: sharper off a loss than they might off win. That 433 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 2: might be foolhardy to think that, but for some reason 434 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 2: I feel a little bit better that they won the 435 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 2: game last night. 436 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I would agree with that, and certainly they're not 437 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 4: gonna hopefully go sixteen to one. But you know, Buffalo, 438 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 4: the team's good teams lose to in a row. It is 439 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 4: in an aberration. When Buffalo lost to Cincinnati then to 440 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 4: Denver in two consecutive weeks, is you know, a couple 441 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 4: of weeks ago, good teams don't lose two in a row, 442 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 4: and having Philly win against Kansas City kind of said 443 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 4: she said, Okay, maybe maybe we've got a better chance 444 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 4: in this in this game, because it's human nature. When 445 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 4: you go in and lose a game, you kind of 446 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 4: you kind of go to dig deeper the next week, 447 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 4: you prepare more diligently. Uh, these guys have got a cushion, 448 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 4: you know. I mean, certainly Detroit is chasing him, but 449 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 4: Dallas is two games behind him, Dallas seven and three. 450 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 4: I mean, Philly's got a wide margin of error, and 451 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:48,159 Speaker 4: Dallas is the fifth seed in the conference. They're like 452 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 4: the best team out of everybody left outside because they're 453 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 4: in the same division. It's Detroit, Dallas, and Philly and 454 00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:00,080 Speaker 4: everybody else in San Francisco. Everybody else is five and 455 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 4: five or worse, six and four. I mean, it's. 456 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 3: You know, New Orleans, you're an NFC South leader at 457 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 3: five and five. 458 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 4: Philly's got a wide margin of error here. 459 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 3: Well, not wide because you got Detroit a game back 460 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 3: for the top seed. 461 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 2: They're a game back. Yeah, that's not a wide margin 462 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 2: with six to play. 463 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 4: It's not a white Let me just yeah, and I 464 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 4: get this seven to play. Detroit's playing, you know, the 465 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 4: twentieth place schedule like they always do. But they got 466 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 4: the Packers next, then the Saints and the. 467 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 3: Bears play schedule. You are harsh man, No mercy for 468 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 3: the Lions. The n. 469 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 4: Atrocity, Yeah, what do we call it? 470 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 3: What do you call it? The dumpster division? 471 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 4: Dumpster garbage? It's garbage. And you got the Bears in 472 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 4: there twice. 473 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 3: Come on, yeah, I know the. 474 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 4: Bears are still. Yeah, the Bear's still. 475 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 2: The NFC picture is is much different than the AFC picture, 476 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 2: which is far more jumbled. The best team in the 477 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 2: conference in the AFC has three losses. Why because the 478 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 2: conference is better top to bottom, end of sort. It's 479 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 2: a Yeah, it's a meat grinder. They have seaism. Yeah, 480 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,360 Speaker 2: they're making sausage over here, man. 481 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, and the Eagles got a dose of it last night. Yeah. 482 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 3: Let's go to the phones into Jack and kenmore. 483 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 6: What do you got for us, Jack, Good afternoon, gentlemen. 484 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,199 Speaker 6: I just doing today.

Okay, I want your 489 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,919 Speaker 6: opinion about that. I have no doubt now on my 490 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 6: mind that we cannot beat I think we could beat 491 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 6: Kansas City. And the other thing is too that that 492 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 6: pump fake Listen does special teams. Floss should be fired 493 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 6: over that. I don't know why he's still not fired. 494 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 6: And we won the game, and mister fourteen didn't do 495 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 6: nothing on the field. Run around that they doubled them 496 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 6: or one ever. Okay, have a. 497 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 3: Great day, all right, Jack, appreciate that. Uh yeah, I 498 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 3: mean they got bamboozled on the fake. That's fine. 499 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:16,679 Speaker 2: Siran Neil turned his back, you know, to the ball 500 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 2: and Steve you can speak to the technique better than 501 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 2: I can as to how you kind of be mindful 502 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,360 Speaker 2: of a potential fake while still serving as a jammer, 503 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 2: which is what saran Neil was doing on the play. 504 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 2: But before we get to that, just addressing your other issues. 505 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 2: I don't know if the Khalil Shakir play happens or 506 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 2: the Ty Johnson play happens unless Stefan Diggs is got 507 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 2: two guys on him. So by attracting that attention, it 508 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 2: affords opportunities for other players within the scope of your offense. 509 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 2: So you may not be impressed with what Stefan Diggs 510 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 2: did on the stat sheet, but he most definitely had 511 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 2: an impact on the game and how it unfolded against 512 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,479 Speaker 2: the Jets. I don't think there's any question about that. 513 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 2: So don't just look at the hard numbers, look at 514 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 2: the game and totality and realize that the attention that 515 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,439 Speaker 2: the Jets were paying to Digs was part and parcel 516 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 2: why other guys got opportunities with the football in their hands. 517 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 4: That's right. I mean, there's no way. 518 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 2: I mean, it's not a hard and fast rule that 519 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 2: n he only had four catches in doing anything. 520 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 3: It doesn't work that way in football. 521 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 4: Every team's different, But there are some stuff you can 522 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 4: look to and say, listen, when you play a good defense, 523 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 4: they're good because they're able to take away what you 524 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 4: do best. Steph Diggs is one of those things for 525 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 4: the Jets and the Bills and the Jets. The Jets 526 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 4: did a nice job on Digs. They got a really 527 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 4: good corner and Sauce Gardner gave him some help. And 528 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 4: if you look on social media, there's a lot of 529 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 4: instances where Sauce was just hugging him. He wouldn't let 530 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 4: him go. 531 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 3: He got called for two penalties in the game. 532 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 4: So you can thank Steph Diggs for that. Also, the 533 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 4: three linebackers on the field, Yeah, you did see three 534 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 4: linebackers on the field for Buffalo and base we talked 535 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 4: about a little bit and I haven't gone back in Stay, 536 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 4: so I'm I'm just saying some theories here. When you 537 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 4: have Tarren Johnson and Dane Jackson and Taylor Rapp go down, 538 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 4: you really you're looking for some help, and so they 539 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 4: might they they might have started to make some adjustments 540 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 4: personnel wise because of the fact they had some injuries 541 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,439 Speaker 4: in the secondary and they wanted to give, you know, 542 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 4: give a different look because of that. So I can't 543 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 4: I don't know that it's a philosophical shift where now 544 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 4: they're going to start playing base defense or have three 545 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 4: linebackers on the field, But I think it was at 546 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 4: least in some part reaction to the injuries they took 547 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 4: in the secondary. 548 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 2: They brought a third linebacker on every time the Jets 549 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 2: jumped into thirteen personnel, they ran a half dozen plays 550 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 2: where they went three tight ends or at tackle eligible 551 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 2: and two tight ends. So anytime thirteen personnel came on 552 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 2: the field, for the Jets, Dorian Williams was running out 553 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 2: there and Taron Johnson was coming off. So that's why 554 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 2: you saw three linebackers in most cases. But there may 555 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 2: have been a couple of instances to Steve's point where 556 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 2: you know that occurred as well because of the injury 557 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 2: losses in the secondary. Now, what about the technique for 558 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 2: a jammer, well, in guarding against a fake if there 559 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 2: is one, there may not even be one. 560 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 4: You played different if you expect a fake, and they 561 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 4: you know through film study, the Jets probably said, listen, 562 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 4: when they get into this near single covered out there, 563 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 4: they've got their guys with their eyes in the in 564 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 4: the backfield. And that's what that's what Saran did. He 565 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 4: backpedaled out of there, was kind of running sideways with 566 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 4: his eyes on the punter, and then the and the 567 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 4: dB and the receiver of the gunner kept stayed in 568 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 4: Sarand's vision and made him feel complacent. Says, okay, here 569 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 4: we go, and then the kid snapped it off to 570 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 4: the sideline behind him when the and the punter stepped 571 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 4: up and made a nice row. It's a it's a 572 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,719 Speaker 4: nice fake, no question, you gotta be on it. If 573 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 4: you're gonna run that kind of return. Yeah, you're at 574 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 4: risk for a fake fake punt. The only way not 575 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 4: to get taken by it is if you're doubling team 576 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 4: on those gunners. And I think one of the reasons 577 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 4: they didn't is because they were going to try and 578 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 4: pressure the punter and get a bad punt out of it, 579 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 4: so they only had single coverage out there. You can 580 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 4: bet other teams have had that in the game plan 581 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 4: and didn't feel the need to use it. You can 582 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 4: say what you want about coaching over the last couple 583 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 4: of weeks or whatever, and it seems easy to say 584 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 4: it now, but you've got to be aware of where 585 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 4: you're at in this game. And when you get into 586 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 4: a game like this against a team like the Jets, 587 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 4: who is were absolutely desperate. They can't get anything going offensively, 588 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 4: they're struggling to do anything, you got to be aware 589 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 4: that they need stuff like that to win, and you 590 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 4: got you gotta be on your on your toes. Teams 591 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 4: like Kansas City don't do that because they don't need that. 592 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 4: They're not gonna run a fake punt on a fourth 593 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 4: and five because they got Pat Mahomes coming in. They 594 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 4: you know they don't think you can outscore them anyway 595 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 4: if they do punt three times in the game. Teams 596 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 4: like the Jets, teams like Chicago, teams like you know, Arizona, 597 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 4: they'll pull that stuff out because they gotta figure out 598 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 4: a way to stay on the field offensively. And that's 599 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 4: where you got to You gotta know, you gotta be 600 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 4: aware of that. 601 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 2: Gotta take a break here, But more of your phone 602 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 2: calls when we return with that game.

Chris Brown, Steve Tasker here on 609 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 2: a Tuesday, asking for your thoughts after watching the Eagles 610 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 2: defeat the Chiefs either on those two teams, how the 611 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 2: Bills may match up against those two guys. 612 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 3: Knowing that those are the next two opponents for Buffalo. 613 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 2: You let us know at eight h three zero five 614 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 2: fifty one eight eight five fifty two five fifty to 615 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 2: Jeff in Buffalo next, what do you got, Jeff? 616 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 5: Hey, guys, good rushers for some of these calls. But anyway, 617 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 5: hey real quick to my point, Brandon Bean, Yeah, and 618 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 5: the Bill's front office, and if I could just pick 619 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 5: your brain a little bit, But this is how I 620 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 5: feel about it. I mean, yes, Josh Allen drey or 621 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 5: a draft pick was was great. But beyond that, if 622 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 5: you look at this team and some of the players 623 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 5: and some of the moves that they make, it seems 624 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 5: like our pro personnel is a lot more in tune 625 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 5: to what's going on than our college scouting. And why 626 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 5: I say that is because if you look at the 627 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 5: Digs thing that worked out pretty nice, this latest trade, 628 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 5: and the von Miller thing, Sam as a free agent. 629 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 5: So when you look at like our team and how 630 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 5: it's built and going on next year, and I'll answer 631 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 5: your question, I think they lose the next two games 632 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 5: and then we're talking about stuff like this. So what 633 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 5: I'm saying is next year they've got they're in a 634 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 5: world of hurt when it comes to salaries and where 635 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 5: they're going to be and von Miller and his output 636 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 5: and how he's going to be healthier and not going 637 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 5: to be healthy. Is there a chance do you see 638 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 5: a way or do you see like a von Miller 639 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 5: departing or I know he's under contract, but whether it 640 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 5: be retiring or something like that, because going forward next year, 641 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 5: and I know nobody wants to think about this, but 642 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 5: if they do lose out and they don't make the playoffs, 643 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 5: we're we're going to be scratching our head and they're 644 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 5: going to go, how are we going to keep all 645 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 5: these players? And there's players like Leonard Floyd and stuff 646 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 5: like that who do deserve another contract. One more thing, 647 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 5: why do we sign players like Fournette? Other teams get 648 00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 5: them on the field and it takes us three four 649 00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 5: week We have a good. 650 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 3: Day, guys, all right, bet, thanks Jeff. Yeah, a lot 651 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 3: of stuff to unpack there. 652 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 2: First of all, I don't think von Miller is going 653 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 2: anywhere next year. The reason why is his cap hit 654 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 2: on the salary cap for the Bills next year is 655 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 2: seven point nine million dollars, so not a problem. What 656 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 2: is a problem is his dead cap hit, which would 657 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 2: be forty million if they threw him overboard. So he's 658 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 2: not going anywhere just by virtue of the financials or 659 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Next year, I'm looking at twenty twenty three. 660 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 2: Next year cap hit twenty three point eight. That's a 661 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 2: fat number, but his dead cap hit is nine million 662 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 2: more than that. It's thirty two to five. So if 663 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 2: you're tight against the cap, you're not throwing a guy 664 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 2: overboard to cost you nine more million dollars. It just 665 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 2: doesn't make financial sense. So, even though the numbers aren't great, 666 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 2: I think he's here next year. 667 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 3: After that, there. 668 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 2: Isn't out in the contract, So you want to talk 669 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 2: about him not being here in twenty twenty five, that 670 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 2: is a possibility. Next year probably not, And we touched 671 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 2: on this yesterday, Steve. I think there will be more 672 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 2: turnover than usual next year because of the cap implications 673 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 2: that he mentioned, and because you got some players that 674 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 2: are a little longer in the tooth, and you have 675 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 2: to have a new influx of youth at several positions. 676 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 4: And I think, well, you got to remember, we haven't 677 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 4: been through this in a long long time. But with 678 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 4: you've got a guy like Josh Allen who's still at 679 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 4: at the peak of his abilities, you can kind of 680 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 4: rebuild like the Chiefs have been able to do. You 681 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,319 Speaker 4: do it on the fly. Certainly you've got to hit 682 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 4: on some draft picks. And we've been over this a 683 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,479 Speaker 4: million times. Everybody's like, well you missed on what Kyri 684 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 4: Elam can't get on the field, and Cody Ford and 685 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 4: whoever else you want to you know, mention you, Brandon 686 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,839 Speaker 4: Bean is right on par with the best gms out there. 687 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 4: The higher you pick, the better your rate is. And 688 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 4: the lower you pick everybody the same thing. 689 00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 2: The lower your rate is the guy hasn't missed on 690 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 2: a first round pick. You can say what you want 691 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 2: about Kyrie Elam. I still think he's going to have 692 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 2: a good and successful career. I just think there are 693 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 2: circumstances at work there that are compromising that, or at 694 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 2: least his opportunities on the field. But I don't think 695 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 2: that he hasn't missed on a first round pick as not. 696 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 4: I don't think. I don't. Yeah, next year's next year. 697 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 4: This year, I mean, yeah, Leonard Fournette notwithstanding, I mean 698 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 4: Rasull Douglas. They did a pretty good job getting him acclimated. 699 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 4: And I think they're run I think they're really happy 700 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 4: with where their running backs are at now. But I 701 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 4: think one thing that this team does that goes under 702 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:40,719 Speaker 4: the radar, and they say it and nobody believes it. 703 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 4: And I think they think Leondard Fournette can really play. 704 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 4: I think they really do. But one of the reasons 705 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,959 Speaker 4: Brandon Bean brings them in here is say, listen, pick 706 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 4: it up, Latavious James Cook, Ty Johnson, pick it up, 707 00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 4: because we got this guy here. Now, we're not getting 708 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 4: enough out of you guys. 709 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 2: They churned the bottom of the roster constantly. They've done 710 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 2: it ever since they've been here. And it's done sometimes 711 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 2: not so much as to get the player they just 712 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 2: signed on the field, but to. 713 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,439 Speaker 3: Get more out of the guys that are already here. 714 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 4: Competition breeds tension, and you need you need these guys. 715 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 4: You know that the baby take it out of gear. 716 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,880 Speaker 4: If they're not getting a line share the reps, then 717 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 4: they kind of like, okay, I'm just gonna you know, 718 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 4: and out of Ty Johnson. Look this way, Ty Johnson 719 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 4: did not take it out of gear. He put it 720 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 4: in gear, uh and and played well doing it. 721 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 2: So and I and I think Ty Johnson's gonna keep 722 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 2: letting and Jette on the practice squad if he keeps 723 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 2: playing like that. 724 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 4: Right well, and he should I mean, what are you 725 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 4: talking about. So they're not They signed players, get the 726 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 4: best players possible on their roster, and there's nothing that 727 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 4: says they can't get to the end of this year. 728 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 4: Ty Johnson goes as Merry Way and Leonard Fournette says, 729 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:56,399 Speaker 4: you know what, I want to stay here. I want 730 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 4: to I wanna stick aroun. I'm gonna sign another deal. 731 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,040 Speaker 4: Get guys into the building. Let him get out a 732 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 4: climated let him start to like it here in the 733 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:06,399 Speaker 4: culture and how everybody's treated, and the and the the 734 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 4: competition in the in the room, and the ability with 735 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 4: Josh and McDermott and this defense. They they've got it 736 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 4: going on over here. So get him a chance to 737 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 4: look at it and say, yeah, I will stick around 738 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 4: for another year. Maybe Leonard Floyd will do that. I 739 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 4: don't know if he will or not, because that guy 740 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 4: is gonna command to make some minke. So you got 741 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,880 Speaker 4: all that going on. It's not always just as simple 742 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:28,919 Speaker 4: as we sign a guy because we think he's better 743 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 4: than anybody on our team. That's probably not the case 744 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 4: in most cases. If the guy's on the street in 745 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 4: September and October, there's a reason it's either his choice 746 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 4: or every other team in the league's choice that he's 747 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 4: not signed. 748 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 2: And not for nothing. It's easier to find a player 749 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 2: that has pro experience that you can see on the 750 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 2: field and watch his tape at the pro level to 751 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 2: pick him as a fit for your team than it 752 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 2: is to draft somebody. The draft is always more of 753 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 2: a projection than a player with pro experience. So to 754 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,479 Speaker 2: get for the For you to say, well, the pro 755 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 2: personnel department does a better job than the college personnel 756 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 2: department is a little it's apples and oranges because you 757 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 2: already have a working set of evidence as to what 758 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:16,760 Speaker 2: that player is going to be at the pro level, 759 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 2: So determining how he would assimilate and fit on your 760 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 2: team is much easier than having a college player and 761 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,720 Speaker 2: projecting him to your team. One is much more difficult 762 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:28,760 Speaker 2: than the other. And I really think it's apples and oranges. 763 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 2: So I don't think it's a fair comparison. 764 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 4: Well, it's not. Well, you can compare the results, but 765 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 4: the problem is getting a kid to go from college 766 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 4: to the pros is an enormous jump. You're on your own, 767 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,720 Speaker 4: You're you're not you got to do your own meals, 768 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 4: find your own place to live. You got to, you know, 769 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 4: give your own you move to a new city, you 770 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 4: don't have any friends, perhaps. 771 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 2: Well, and there's more stuff, and there's more development on 772 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,919 Speaker 2: the on the part of the coaching staff to get 773 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 2: him ready to play. 774 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,080 Speaker 4: You're in a team where everybody is the best player 775 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 4: you've ever played against or with every guy not. You 776 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,399 Speaker 4: don't have twenty five walk ons that are walking around 777 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 4: his dental students taking up space. These guys are all pros, 778 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 4: and there's eighty five of them in training camp. When 779 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 4: you get there as a it's a big jump, and 780 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 4: you don't know how every guy's gonna take that. How 781 00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 4: every guy's gonna handle it, If he's gonna have his 782 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 4: stuff together? Is personal life off the field where he 783 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,759 Speaker 4: does he's he's not, you know, living in a car, 784 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 4: living in a cardboard box. I mean, you got this's 785 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,760 Speaker 4: a huge question for these young guys. So it's hard 786 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 4: to project, like Brownie said, because there's so many more 787 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 4: moving parts. 788 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 2: Gotta take a break here, but Jim and Williamsville will 789 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,279 Speaker 2: lead us off, along with others holding an eight h 790 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 2: three more phone calls next here on One Bill's Live 791 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 2: stay tuned. 792 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 3: All right back here on one Bill's Live. 793 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:45,439 Speaker 2: I want to get right back to the phones and 794 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 2: we go to Jim and Williamsville to lead us off. 795 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:48,919 Speaker 3: What do you got for Jim? 796 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:52,399 Speaker 11: Hey, guys, how you doing well? 797 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 12: Hey? 798 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,720 Speaker 13: Before I before I make my point about a concern 799 00:39:56,800 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 13: I have in next week's game against the Eagles, I 800 00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 13: have to address the caller before last on his comment 801 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 13: about Diggs. I think it's absolutely hilarious that he had 802 00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 13: the audacity to criticize Diggs for what he does in 803 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 13: the football field. I don't know, to be honest with you, 804 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 13: he may want to look in the mirror and see 805 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 13: if he has possibly some other issues. But in that event, 806 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:31,280 Speaker 13: I digress. So anyway, next week, I'm a bit concerned 807 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,760 Speaker 13: about Spencer Brown and how he's going to fare against 808 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 13: the son Reddick. That guy's got some speed. Honestly, it 809 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 13: reminded me of a younger Von Miller, at least with 810 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 13: the speed aspect of his game. Anyway, I know there's 811 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,319 Speaker 13: ways to handle that to a degree, but I'll hang 812 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:51,960 Speaker 13: up and listen. 813 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:56,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks, It's a valid concern, Jim, and I would 814 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,879 Speaker 2: say the main reason why, And look, I'll be first 815 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 2: to tell you Spencer Brown might be having his best 816 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 2: season in a Bill's uniform this year. 817 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 3: I mean he's really been. 818 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:10,879 Speaker 2: He's smoothed out the inconsistencies that sometimes have troubled him 819 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 2: week to week to week to week. On wheel week 820 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 2: he would play really, really well and in the next 821 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:17,720 Speaker 2: week he would be a little uneven with his play. 822 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,240 Speaker 2: You have not seen that this year for the most part. 823 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 2: And I will tell you though, that the kind of 824 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 2: Russia that Hassan Reddick is is the one that has 825 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 2: historically given Spencer Brown problems because he's so tall and long. 826 00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 2: A shorter, bendier player can get underneath his arms, underneath 827 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,839 Speaker 2: his shoulder, and those are the guys that do give 828 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:42,720 Speaker 2: Spencer Brown problems. You're right, there are ways to handle 829 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 2: that if you feel he needs some help. But in 830 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 2: all fairness, Spencer Brown has had maybe his most consistent 831 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:51,920 Speaker 2: season to date this season. 832 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,919 Speaker 4: And there's no question all the way across the front, 833 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 4: Phillis defense is top notch. Yeah, they're stating down inside 834 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 4: and on the edge standing secondly good, They are really good, 835 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 4: and it's gonna be a big job for the Bills 836 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:09,879 Speaker 4: offensive line. But when in its current state, I'll put 837 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,840 Speaker 4: these I'll put the Bills five against you know, anybody 838 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,840 Speaker 4: to do as well as any other offensive line is 839 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 4: done this year. So you're right. I think it falls 840 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 4: squarely on the offensive line to play really well against 841 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 4: a really good Philly front, force them to do some 842 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 4: things defensively that they're not used to doing, to get 843 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 4: pass pressure, uh, to stop the run to everything. This 844 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:35,439 Speaker 4: is These kind of games are where your offensive line 845 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 4: really needs does need to show up. And you know 846 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 4: it doesn't necessarily start and stop with Spencer Brown. It's 847 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 4: all the way across all five of them. Yeah, because 848 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,440 Speaker 4: their defensive tackles are outstanding as well. 849 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 3: Let's go back to the phones into Kevin in Michigan. 850 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:48,359 Speaker 3: What do you got Kevin? 851 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 14: Hey, how are you guys doing today? If you're taking 852 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 14: my call? 853 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:57,240 Speaker 15: Sure, I have a question about Josh Allen for you guys. Actually, 854 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 15: going back to Fridays broadcast, she had Craig Gusella and 855 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 15: he was talking about Josh being a playmaker more than 856 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 15: like a precision passer. And I also get that sense. 857 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 15: And I always thought Josh had another level to get to, 858 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 15: and I thought that level was getting. 859 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:25,240 Speaker 14: To incorporating the precision type passing like l Tom Brady. 860 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,799 Speaker 14: You know, three stumps back, get the ball out, by 861 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 14: steps back, get the ball out. Can you just tell 862 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 14: me your thoughts on that, Yeah, let me know what 863 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:35,439 Speaker 14: you think. 864 00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:35,959 Speaker 3: I don't. 865 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 2: I don't think, Kevin, if you want Josh Allen to 866 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 2: be Tom Brady, you're going to be disappointed because they 867 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:46,720 Speaker 2: are far different skill sets. I mean, tom Brady used 868 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 2: subtle movement in the pocket to buy time and deliver 869 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 2: a football from the pocket. Josh Allen might be the 870 00:43:55,120 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 2: best athlete in the entire league, and the things that 871 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:03,360 Speaker 2: he can do on a football field physically are just 872 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,799 Speaker 2: not in Tom Brady's skill set, so they will never 873 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 2: look the same ever. And Josh, because of what he 874 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 2: can do off script outside the pocket, extending plays makes 875 00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 2: him a completely different player for your offense. And so 876 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:26,280 Speaker 2: to expect the high efficiency, you know, seventy percent completion, 877 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:30,720 Speaker 2: operate within play structure, three steps foot in the ground, 878 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 2: ball out every single time, that's not who he is. 879 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,839 Speaker 2: Tua Tongue of Ioloa is more like Tom Brady than 880 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:40,360 Speaker 2: Josh Allen will ever be. And that's not an insult 881 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 2: to Josh Allen, because Josh Allen's a freaking unicorn. So 882 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 2: you can do more things because of the skill set 883 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 2: that Josh Allen possesses to win a football game than 884 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 2: with Tom Brady. The difference is Tom Brady was extraordinarily 885 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 2: good in the only way that he could win football games, 886 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 2: which was from the pocket. Josh Allen can beat you 887 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 2: a multitude. 888 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 4: Of ways, yes, And that's exactly right. Tom Brady was 889 00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 4: so good from the pocket, that's all he ever had 890 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 4: to do. Josh is so good. I mean, you go 891 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 4: back and look at games that Josh played in, and 892 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 4: the one that always comes to mind was the game 893 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:22,799 Speaker 4: that you and I just both looked at each other 894 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 4: and decided that we had that was the guy. It 895 00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 4: was the last game of the regular season in Miami, 896 00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:30,760 Speaker 4: his I think his rookie season. It was a twenty 897 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 4: nineteen eighteen, Yes, his rookie season, and he absolutely put 898 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:40,240 Speaker 4: the entire organization on his shoulders and almost and single 899 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 4: handedly won the game except for a drop pass at 900 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 4: the end of the game. That's the kind of guy 901 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:52,480 Speaker 4: Josh is. And in this day and age, it's wrong. 902 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:56,359 Speaker 4: I think it's it's pointless to compare Josh Allen to 903 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:58,879 Speaker 4: Tom Brady or Josh Allen to Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen, 904 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 4: Justin Herbert or Kyler Murray or Tua any of those guys. 905 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 4: These teams, and I don't know whether it's human dynamics 906 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:14,880 Speaker 4: or whether it's a conscious effort. You recognize the quarterbacks 907 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,880 Speaker 4: by their personalities because their personalities come out on the field, 908 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 4: and that the whole team is built around that. It 909 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 4: seems like, right, Mahomes is all he can make every 910 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:25,640 Speaker 4: other kind of play. So they got guys that are 911 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:27,920 Speaker 4: running all over the field and he's throwing it sideways 912 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 4: and he's shot putting it last night for a touchdown 913 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:35,400 Speaker 4: after he scrambles a little bit. And these teams, offenses 914 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 4: kind of take the personality of the abilities of their quarterback. 915 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:43,240 Speaker 4: They have space for quarterbacks to make plays outside the pocket, 916 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 4: or they don't. The Patriots never did because the ball 917 00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:53,320 Speaker 4: was never was never in the pocket, was gone. Justin Herbert, 918 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:56,759 Speaker 4: that guy runs maybe once in a while, but he's 919 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,240 Speaker 4: got an arm and these he throws it from the pocket. 920 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:05,280 Speaker 4: Isler Murray's helter skeltering around at there. You know, Lamar Jackson, 921 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 4: same thing. They got a run game, he runs it. 922 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,719 Speaker 4: They got designed runs. The whole offense is structured around 923 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:11,799 Speaker 4: the skill set of their quarterback. So it's really pointless 924 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:15,360 Speaker 4: to compare these guys like that because they're all different. 925 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 2: Gotta take a break here because we got dan Orlowski 926 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 2: coming up next ESPN NFL analyst, He makes his weekly 927 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:23,600 Speaker 2: visit with us here on One Bill's Live. 928 00:47:23,640 --> 00:48:11,320 Speaker 1: Stay tune this One Bill's Live presented by Klita Health. 929 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:13,440 Speaker 3: Hour number two on a Tuesday. 930 00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 2: Chris Brown se pastor with you and please to bring 931 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 2: in at this time ESPN analyst former NFLQB dan Orlovsky, 932 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:23,439 Speaker 2: whose segment is brought to you by Elekit Hotels.

Well, Dan, it seems each week we 937 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:37,879 Speaker 2: bridge our previous conversation with the current one, and I'm 938 00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:40,399 Speaker 2: going to do it here with this first question for you. 939 00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:44,880 Speaker 2: We talked last week about motion with a purpose, and 940 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:49,040 Speaker 2: I think we witness that to a great degree Sunday 941 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:53,400 Speaker 2: against the Jets with Joe Brady calling the game for Buffalo. 942 00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:55,040 Speaker 3: Would you agree. 943 00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 16: One hundred percent. You saw it all over I think 944 00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:02,239 Speaker 16: eighteen times, and I think it's important to understand this. 945 00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:06,920 Speaker 16: So Number one, when using because a lot of times 946 00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 16: and I can even fall into the trap of it 947 00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:12,480 Speaker 16: we just say, well, use motion more. Okay, So let's 948 00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:16,359 Speaker 16: talk about that even deeper. So one, when using motion, 949 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 16: there always has to be an intention behind the motion, 950 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 16: and I think the intention falls into one of two categories. 951 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:27,359 Speaker 16: Are we trying to gather information are we trying to 952 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:31,080 Speaker 16: impact the defense? And what I loved about Brady was 953 00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:34,640 Speaker 16: it was both. You really don't want it to be 954 00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 16: just one or the other. Now on plays it's going 955 00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:39,920 Speaker 16: to be, but over the course of the game you 956 00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:42,840 Speaker 16: wanted to be both. And you saw that with some 957 00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:46,760 Speaker 16: of the motions to try and impact the defense, whether 958 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:50,520 Speaker 16: it was using that motion to create some void in 959 00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 16: the second level of a defense, or to get people 960 00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 16: from one responsibility to the other on a fly, or 961 00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,920 Speaker 16: there was motion for information. The James Cook touchdown PA 962 00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 16: was certainly an example of that. So I've said for years, 963 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 16: I don't know why more teams don't do it. As 964 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 16: long as you have a smart quarterback, you should be 965 00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 16: capable of doing it. And I love the fact that 966 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:15,200 Speaker 16: Joe ranted a ton and I think it unlocked a 967 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 16: lot of yards after the catch for their offense, which 968 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 16: is you know, needed for everybody, but certainly in Buffalo. 969 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:25,240 Speaker 4: We've made the point too that to get the running 970 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:28,440 Speaker 4: backs and other targets involved in the passing game. And 971 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 4: one of the things I noticed, I want to get 972 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 4: your take on this. I mentioned a few times this week, 973 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,399 Speaker 4: it seemed like the running backs getting involved, particularly early 974 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:38,360 Speaker 4: in the game against the Jets, it was more on 975 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 4: designed routes. Rather than the guy checking for pass protection, 976 00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:45,320 Speaker 4: they just turning around and making himself available. The routes 977 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,200 Speaker 4: were in a couple of flat routes or swing route, 978 00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:50,360 Speaker 4: but they were actually running a route rather than just 979 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 4: checking down and getting the ball, although they did both. 980 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:56,760 Speaker 4: I thought, yes, having a back in a route quick 981 00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,080 Speaker 4: was a quick answer that Josh really took advantage of 982 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 4: earning the game. Certainly a couple of them turned into touchdowns. 983 00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,320 Speaker 16: Yeah, And part of it is, you know the way 984 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:10,840 Speaker 16: that if you took one team offensively that played solid 985 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:14,080 Speaker 16: against the Jets this year defensively was the Cowboys, and 986 00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 16: that was a big part of their game plan was 987 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 16: that was there get the ball of the quarterback's hands 988 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,840 Speaker 16: quickly method wise. Because the Jets, you have to respect 989 00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:26,240 Speaker 16: their defense. And so if you say what's the strength 990 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 16: of their defense, it's their defensive line. What's the next 991 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,719 Speaker 16: strength of their defense, it's their two corners. What's the 992 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:35,400 Speaker 16: next strength of their defense, it would be their safeties. Okay, 993 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 16: So the fourth thing that they do best is coverage 994 00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:41,799 Speaker 16: by their linebacker group, and that's probably the number one 995 00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:43,960 Speaker 16: way to try and go after it is get the 996 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 16: ball out of the quarterbacks hands and get in the 997 00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 16: into space with your backs and against some of those 998 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:51,319 Speaker 16: throats to the backs were just information throws. Oh, I 999 00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:53,360 Speaker 16: know what the defense that you're in, whether it was 1000 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:55,200 Speaker 16: man or zone or it was going to be Cover 1001 00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:58,360 Speaker 16: three or Cover one, and you so often know what 1002 00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:00,160 Speaker 16: to do with the football. Josh knew what the do 1003 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 16: with the football or what he wanted to do with 1004 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:05,440 Speaker 16: the football before getting the snap on a consistent basis 1005 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:08,399 Speaker 16: that like for me task it's just like, hey, I'm 1006 00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 16: weaponizing my quarterback. I'm weaponizing him to do what he 1007 00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,560 Speaker 16: wants to do with the football rather than being reactive 1008 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 16: with it. 1009 00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 2: So logic would say Dan knowing the capabilities of the 1010 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 2: Philadelphia defensive front. This week for Buffalo's matchup, you'd expect 1011 00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 2: the Bills to maybe take advantage of those quick release 1012 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 2: kinds of throws. But you also know Philadelphia is fully 1013 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:34,879 Speaker 2: preparing for it, having seen it on tape this week 1014 00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 2: against the Jets. So how do you make it look 1015 00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 2: different so you can still utilize it when necessary? 1016 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:45,319 Speaker 16: Yeah, I think this week becomes a little bit more 1017 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,680 Speaker 16: matchup centric. You know, there's not really a matchup to 1018 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:52,359 Speaker 16: exploit last week versus the Jets. When it comes to like, 1019 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,000 Speaker 16: hey we want to work this person, this one becomes 1020 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:57,799 Speaker 16: a little more matchup centric. And here's the truth, Like 1021 00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,359 Speaker 16: if we just pay attention to that game and and 1022 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:02,840 Speaker 16: we close our eyes and don't look at the end result, 1023 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:06,879 Speaker 16: and I know we often can't do that. He has 1024 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 16: a city, had plenty of plays available there. They just 1025 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:13,560 Speaker 16: didn't make them in the simplest form. It just like 1026 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:17,719 Speaker 16: catch the ball obviously, but this wasn't a you know, 1027 00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,920 Speaker 16: like they struggled to know they didn't they ran the 1028 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 16: football in power situations, They got their backs on the 1029 00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:26,400 Speaker 16: edges in the run game. So that would be something 1030 00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:29,279 Speaker 16: I think, and that lends to Buffalo with Dion as 1031 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:31,799 Speaker 16: a puller. So I think that in the past game 1032 00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:36,120 Speaker 16: it really is such a central focus of work in 1033 00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:39,239 Speaker 16: the middle of the field. You know, they they there's 1034 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,239 Speaker 16: one person playing well coverage wise in their secondary that's 1035 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:46,280 Speaker 16: Darius Slay and I love Philly, but that's the truth. 1036 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:51,359 Speaker 16: So it's matchup centric of how many different ways can 1037 00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:54,320 Speaker 16: they get their pass catcher, whether it is a staff 1038 00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:58,279 Speaker 16: or whether it's a Gabe or a Shaki. Obviously, like 1039 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:01,800 Speaker 16: working between the numbers is going to be such a 1040 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 16: big deal. So yes, protection and the different ways that 1041 00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:07,359 Speaker 16: they'll help with protection and whatnot. But this is going 1042 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 16: to be matchup centric rather than bald distribution centric. 1043 00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, we have the Philly Where have the Eagles struggled? 1044 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:18,480 Speaker 4: And both offensively and defensively, where are their problems if any? 1045 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,879 Speaker 16: Yeah, so offensively they've turned the ball over, that's really 1046 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:23,920 Speaker 16: the only way. And like they've turned the ball over 1047 00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:26,520 Speaker 16: more than they did in the past. They don't run 1048 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:30,719 Speaker 16: Jalen as much. Now there's two schools of thoughts. Offensively, 1049 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 16: have they not done it because he has a left 1050 00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:35,479 Speaker 16: knee maybe, or have they not done it just because 1051 00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 16: their philosophy was going to be not a lot in September, 1052 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:41,400 Speaker 16: not in October, not a ton in early November, Like, 1053 00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:43,799 Speaker 16: let's do it when we have to. They're nine to one, 1054 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:45,560 Speaker 16: they don't have to right now. We saw it a 1055 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 16: little bit more last night. So they're still running the 1056 00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:51,080 Speaker 16: ball well. I don't think their offensive line is as 1057 00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:52,879 Speaker 16: dominant as it was last year. 1058 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:53,120 Speaker 3: Now. 1059 00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 16: I think that's attached to less quarterback run because it's numbers, right, 1060 00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:00,279 Speaker 16: you're not holding the defense as much. AJ Brown been 1061 00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:04,440 Speaker 16: on an absolute tear. The Jerry's needed an awesome job. 1062 00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,200 Speaker 16: So offensively, Steve like, they're very similar to last year 1063 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:09,960 Speaker 16: and maybe a little bit of two back. We saw 1064 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:13,839 Speaker 16: two back as Dallas Goddard being out, so the two 1065 00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:16,920 Speaker 16: back stuff and getting swift the ball on the edges 1066 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,920 Speaker 16: was a big deal. Defensively is where they're not nearly 1067 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:23,239 Speaker 16: what they were last year, and they've they've struggled to cover. 1068 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,000 Speaker 16: They just have rad Berry has not played to the 1069 00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 16: level that he did last year. They lost C. J. 1070 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:31,840 Speaker 16: Gardner Johnson and for agency. Then it went down to 1071 00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:34,400 Speaker 16: Avante Maddicks, who's a pretty darn good nickel and he 1072 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,440 Speaker 16: got hurt and they have struggled to replace that Nickel, 1073 00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:40,200 Speaker 16: and they were living in this world of do we 1074 00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:42,439 Speaker 16: want to play zone like we did last year? Okay, 1075 00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,160 Speaker 16: we'll play more man and then the only guy who's 1076 00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:48,960 Speaker 16: played man good is Darius And so you can create 1077 00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,400 Speaker 16: some matchups, you really can. And if you if you 1078 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 16: get the right people in the right place and you 1079 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 16: get him on, you get them on that Nickel. Like again, 1080 00:55:57,400 --> 00:55:59,799 Speaker 16: think of the two deep balls that were incomplete last night, 1081 00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:03,359 Speaker 16: not drops. Watson runs right by a guy and he 1082 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 16: doesn't convert. MBS runs right by a guy and he 1083 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 16: just doesn't run the route the right way. Then there's 1084 00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:12,040 Speaker 16: the drop touchdown Watson on him. There's there's holes in 1085 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 16: that secondary. That's the truth. And so you can have 1086 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 16: success in your past game one hundred percent. 1087 00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:20,759 Speaker 2: And you said middle of the field, and you know 1088 00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:23,279 Speaker 2: you didn't even mention Kinkaid. So I'm wondering what the 1089 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:27,200 Speaker 2: possibilities are there too, if you had to. 1090 00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 16: Tell me, like personnel wise, where do the eagle now 1091 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 16: byered coming over? Will they use Kevin Bayer the way 1092 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 16: that they used them a little bit with Kelsey last 1093 00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 16: night and matchups and whatnot? I think that could be, 1094 00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 16: you know, something in Byron's done and he did a 1095 00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:44,280 Speaker 16: nice job last night, yew there were double and triple teams. 1096 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:47,200 Speaker 16: If they do that versus Kincaid, I don't think so. 1097 00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:50,839 Speaker 16: But if they do that, good night. But you know, 1098 00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 16: I think that Philly will probably lean into taking Kevin 1099 00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:56,080 Speaker 16: Byard if they're going to play man and getting him 1100 00:56:56,120 --> 00:57:01,359 Speaker 16: in coverage with Dalton king Gaid. But as much as 1101 00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:03,279 Speaker 16: I love Philly and as much as I respect them, 1102 00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:05,560 Speaker 16: I know their defensive corner. I grew up with them. 1103 00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:11,960 Speaker 16: There are throws there to multiple people. Anyone opposite Sleigh 1104 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:14,520 Speaker 16: is a person who who has the chance to have 1105 00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:15,000 Speaker 16: a big game. 1106 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 4: Dan. 1107 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,959 Speaker 2: Thanks as always, we know your time is tight today. 1108 00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:21,160 Speaker 2: We appreciate you giving us some of it. We'll catch 1109 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:22,000 Speaker 2: up with you next week. 1110 00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:24,320 Speaker 16: Thanks guys, have a great Thanksgiving. 1111 00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 3: Yeah you too. 1112 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:25,760 Speaker 4: All right, man, you too. 1113 00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 2: That's Dan Orlowski, ESPN NFL analysts joining us here as 1114 00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:35,840 Speaker 2: he does every Tuesday. Interesting, interesting, Steve, that you know 1115 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:40,600 Speaker 2: the Eagles, unlike last year where they sailed, and I 1116 00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:45,240 Speaker 2: mean sailed to the conference title game and then got 1117 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 2: to play a fifth string quarterback to advance to the 1118 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:52,200 Speaker 2: super Bowl, they're actually having a tad bit a tad 1119 00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:54,200 Speaker 2: bit of adversity this season. 1120 00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:54,920 Speaker 4: Well, not too much. 1121 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 3: They're eight. No, not too much. 1122 00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,840 Speaker 4: They're nine and one, so they're playing really well. But yeah, 1123 00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 4: last night they had no busines is winning that game 1124 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:04,440 Speaker 4: in Kansas City. They did. Kansas City dropped six balls. 1125 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:06,960 Speaker 4: One was a winning touchdown. In the last two minutes, 1126 00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:09,479 Speaker 4: they FuMB and that Kansas City fumbled the ball away 1127 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:15,120 Speaker 4: or through an interception in the red zone twice. Kansas 1128 00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:18,320 Speaker 4: City was all over him and couldn't close the deal. 1129 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:22,960 Speaker 4: And you know so, but good teams kind of have 1130 00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,440 Speaker 4: that confidence like I don't care, We're gonna still win, 1131 00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 4: you know. 1132 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 3: And they know how to grind out games. 1133 00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:30,880 Speaker 4: That's what shanded out they do. They finished games really well. 1134 00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:34,080 Speaker 4: And uh, it's gonna be a it's gonna be a 1135 00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,080 Speaker 4: huge task going to Philly and beat this team. 1136 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:39,760 Speaker 2: Yes, I don't think there's any debate about that. I 1137 00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:42,320 Speaker 2: think the most interesting thing that Dan talked about though, 1138 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,160 Speaker 2: was the fact that, you know, last week we saw 1139 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 2: an approach from Joe Brady that was ball distribution focused, 1140 00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:53,240 Speaker 2: got a lot of people involved, heavy substitution at the 1141 00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:56,560 Speaker 2: skill positions on offense, a lot of people got involved, 1142 00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:01,160 Speaker 2: and now this week it might be all about the matchups. 1143 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:03,920 Speaker 2: You might see a guy getting twelve targets and it 1144 00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:05,919 Speaker 2: might not be Steffan tis right. 1145 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:09,120 Speaker 4: And it's a big it's a big ask and a 1146 00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:13,080 Speaker 4: big test for Joe Brady. Different, completely different way to 1147 00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:16,240 Speaker 4: make a game plan up, with different reasons for motion, 1148 00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 4: for different reasons for personnel, for different reasons for early 1149 00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:21,720 Speaker 4: plays in the game, to find out stuff, you know, 1150 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,880 Speaker 4: for reconnaissance about how they're what their rules are. So 1151 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:27,240 Speaker 4: it's going to be a completely different game for Joe Brady. 1152 00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:31,520 Speaker 4: He's gonna have to formulate, formulate, excuse me, formulate a 1153 00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 4: game plan that is vastly different from the one he 1154 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:40,360 Speaker 4: just played against the Jets. Different type of offensive mindset, 1155 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:43,000 Speaker 4: like where's that guy? Okay, let's find him. All right, 1156 00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 4: let's put these guys out. He's on the field. Okay, 1157 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,240 Speaker 4: Now what are they eight lined up in? Okay? Now switch? 1158 00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 4: You know what I mean. It's gonna be a lot 1159 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:53,800 Speaker 4: on Josh to get a guy over there and manipulate 1160 00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:57,160 Speaker 4: the defense into a matchup he wants. It's hard to 1161 00:59:57,200 --> 01:00:01,560 Speaker 4: do because Philly knows what they're Philly knows their guy 1162 01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:02,360 Speaker 4: can't play. 1163 01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:04,880 Speaker 2: And they have one of the three best rosters in football. 1164 01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:06,520 Speaker 2: I mean, you can say what you want about their 1165 01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 2: coverage ability on the back end, where they sustained some 1166 01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:11,840 Speaker 2: injuries and some free agent losses. They're not the it's 1167 01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:14,120 Speaker 2: not the strength of their defense. What's up front. 1168 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,160 Speaker 4: We're not splitting the atom here. I mean everybody else 1169 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:18,080 Speaker 4: sees the same thing the Bills do. I mean you 1170 01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:20,160 Speaker 4: didn't think the Chiefs went after him. I mean the 1171 01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:23,840 Speaker 4: Philly knows where they're vulnerable and they can cover it 1172 01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:27,600 Speaker 4: up as best they can. So that's why, you know, 1173 01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:29,720 Speaker 4: you gotta like you got to coach it out of it. 1174 01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:31,960 Speaker 2: Well, and they they try to cover it up with pressure. 1175 01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:35,640 Speaker 2: Evidence of that last night's game. Mahomes on fifty dropbacks 1176 01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:38,560 Speaker 2: is sacked only once, but he was pressured on twenty 1177 01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:42,760 Speaker 2: other snaps. So Philly's gonna dial it up to help 1178 01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 2: the guys on their back end. 1179 01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 4: This going for Buffalo though in their favor. Is you 1180 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:49,440 Speaker 4: know Josh is every bit as hard to sack as 1181 01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:51,800 Speaker 4: Mahomes is, correct, So we'll see. 1182 01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:52,440 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1183 01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 2: Eight h three zero five point fifty one eight eight 1184 01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:57,280 Speaker 2: eight five fifty two five fifty the number to get 1185 01:00:57,320 --> 01:01:00,520 Speaker 2: on board. What are your thoughts after watching the Eagles 1186 01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 2: defeat the Chiefs. You can either give us your thoughts 1187 01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:05,360 Speaker 2: on what kind of an opponent you think the Eagles 1188 01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:07,080 Speaker 2: are going to be for the Bills this week, what 1189 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:08,960 Speaker 2: kind of opponent you think the Chiefs are going to 1190 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:11,360 Speaker 2: be three weeks from now, because we've got the bye 1191 01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:14,080 Speaker 2: week before they play the Chiefs the following week. So 1192 01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 2: if you have any thoughts based on what you pulled 1193 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:18,920 Speaker 2: out of last night's game, you let us know it. 1194 01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 2: Eight oh three five point fifty one eight eight eight 1195 01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:24,480 Speaker 2: five fifty two, five point fifty the number to get 1196 01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:26,960 Speaker 2: on board. Uh, we're gonna go to a guy that 1197 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:29,880 Speaker 2: was holding earlier. He popped back on here it's Rufus 1198 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 2: in Buffalo. 1199 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:31,080 Speaker 3: What do you got for us? 1200 01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 4: Rufus? 1201 01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:34,280 Speaker 17: Hey, how you doing? Happy holidays? 1202 01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 3: Yeah to you as well. 1203 01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:37,880 Speaker 17: Yeah, I just I just want to know, you know, 1204 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,760 Speaker 17: I watched the game this weekend, and you know, I 1205 01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 17: like the Josh Allen that I saw. You know, actually, 1206 01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 17: I love that Josh Allen. I believe that's when he 1207 01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:50,120 Speaker 17: plays his best ball, when he's not solely focused on 1208 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 17: getting the best player on the field of the ball 1209 01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 17: and threatening the needle and forcing it. You know, when 1210 01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:57,120 Speaker 17: he just spreads it around, so I kind of want 1211 01:01:57,120 --> 01:01:59,360 Speaker 17: to know you know your guys thoughts on you feel 1212 01:01:59,440 --> 01:02:02,640 Speaker 17: like Alan plays better when he's just free and not 1213 01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:06,040 Speaker 17: under pressure of gigs or no, get your guy to 1214 01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:07,520 Speaker 17: ball and live through gates. 1215 01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:12,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would agree Rufus that he does play better 1216 01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:16,840 Speaker 2: when he's playing free, But I think I think we 1217 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:20,560 Speaker 2: have to word it better then, whether than when he's 1218 01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:24,800 Speaker 2: playing under pressure. Because Josh is a clutch quarterback too, 1219 01:02:24,920 --> 01:02:27,960 Speaker 2: so to say he plays better when it's free and 1220 01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:31,520 Speaker 2: easy and more so than when he's under pressure, we 1221 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:35,680 Speaker 2: got to phrase that differently. I think when things are 1222 01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:40,640 Speaker 2: difficult and the team is struggling, I think sometimes it 1223 01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:42,680 Speaker 2: will take him a little bit of time to pull 1224 01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:45,960 Speaker 2: them out of a funk. But when the pressure is 1225 01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 2: on in a football game, that's sometimes when. 1226 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:50,320 Speaker 3: Josh is at his best. 1227 01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:53,520 Speaker 2: I mean, look no further than the twenty twenty one 1228 01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:55,720 Speaker 2: divisional playoff in Kansas City when it was back and 1229 01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:57,640 Speaker 2: forth over the last four minutes of that game. 1230 01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 3: That's high pressure environment and he was thriving. 1231 01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:03,400 Speaker 2: And there have been other examples of that, countless number 1232 01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:06,280 Speaker 2: of examples for Josh when his team is down. You 1233 01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:08,280 Speaker 2: can look at the list of his fourth quarter comebacks. 1234 01:03:08,280 --> 01:03:10,440 Speaker 2: They're in the teams already and he's only a sixty 1235 01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 2: year player. I think there is something to be said 1236 01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 2: with respect to the coordinator change that. The biggest messaging 1237 01:03:20,600 --> 01:03:23,960 Speaker 2: we heard Coach McDermott come out of that with was 1238 01:03:24,240 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 2: we need new energy and confidence in our offense. 1239 01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:31,919 Speaker 3: It lends, It lends to the theory, and I don't 1240 01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 3: know this. This is just a theory. 1241 01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:40,720 Speaker 2: That maybe Ken Dorsey had a vice grip on this 1242 01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:45,080 Speaker 2: offense succeeding and when it didn't, he tightened the vice 1243 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:51,120 Speaker 2: even harder. And sometimes when you're two tents, you can't 1244 01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:54,240 Speaker 2: function and execute in the way you are capable of. 1245 01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:57,800 Speaker 2: And I wonder if that tension and pressure when things 1246 01:03:57,880 --> 01:04:00,640 Speaker 2: started to go the wrong way with this offense was 1247 01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:03,480 Speaker 2: too much for the players to go out on the field, 1248 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:08,320 Speaker 2: relax and play to their capabilities because they had a 1249 01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:13,880 Speaker 2: coordinator who was so tense and intense. Not for the 1250 01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:16,280 Speaker 2: wrong reasons, because he wanted to win as much as 1251 01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:19,560 Speaker 2: the next guy. But I wonder if that ratcheted up 1252 01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:24,600 Speaker 2: intensity from the coordinator filtered down through the players to 1253 01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:27,200 Speaker 2: the point where they couldn't execute in a way that 1254 01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:29,640 Speaker 2: they were accustomed to over the last couple of years. 1255 01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:32,360 Speaker 3: Just a theory. Don't know that, but. 1256 01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:35,360 Speaker 2: It's hard not to think about Dorsey's reaction in the 1257 01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:38,400 Speaker 2: booth after the Week three loss to Miami last year, 1258 01:04:38,680 --> 01:04:41,760 Speaker 2: when he's throwing an iPad over the place and smashing 1259 01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:48,920 Speaker 2: stuff like that. Is that can affect players, and not 1260 01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,760 Speaker 2: necessarily in a good way all the time, because everybody's different. 1261 01:04:52,320 --> 01:04:54,760 Speaker 2: So I wonder if that was part and parcel what 1262 01:04:54,880 --> 01:04:58,440 Speaker 2: had an impact on compromising the effectiveness and productivity of 1263 01:04:58,440 --> 01:04:59,040 Speaker 2: this offense. 1264 01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:04,480 Speaker 4: I don't know if all that's right, but it, you know, 1265 01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 4: it's certainly a valid, you know, assertion, because you can 1266 01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:13,480 Speaker 4: tell you when Dorsey comes in takes over as oc 1267 01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:16,200 Speaker 4: The thing they had to do was like keep keep 1268 01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:18,520 Speaker 4: the lid on Josh, make just get Josh to take 1269 01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:21,640 Speaker 4: this easy throw. Keep stop trying to make the impossible throw, 1270 01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:23,960 Speaker 4: take the easy ones, and then take the impossible ones 1271 01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 4: when they're not so impossible and they're made easier because 1272 01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:29,880 Speaker 4: they're afraid you're gonna take the easy one. That kind 1273 01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:33,040 Speaker 4: of thing. So to handle Josh and maybe to combat 1274 01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:38,000 Speaker 4: Josh's sugar high Josh, maybe it was his solution to 1275 01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:40,800 Speaker 4: vice this. You know, put a vice grip on the 1276 01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:44,240 Speaker 4: offense and stifle him a little bit so we wouldn't 1277 01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:48,120 Speaker 4: keep trying to go deep. And in doing so, it 1278 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:51,480 Speaker 4: changed the attitude. Josh changed, his demeanor changed and changed 1279 01:05:51,680 --> 01:05:54,360 Speaker 4: more than what he was looking to change about the offense. 1280 01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:58,439 Speaker 4: And now that you know the penel now under Joe Brady, 1281 01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:01,280 Speaker 4: at least after you know what seventy plays or whatever 1282 01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 4: it was, now the baby the pendulum swinging back the 1283 01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:05,560 Speaker 4: other way. Maybe we'll see a little bit more of it. Uh, 1284 01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:11,440 Speaker 4: they'll probably probably be some unintended side side effects of 1285 01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:16,880 Speaker 4: Joe Brady's coordinatorship as well, but we'll see. Certainly the 1286 01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:17,919 Speaker 4: early returns are good. 1287 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:18,840 Speaker 17: Uh. 1288 01:06:20,560 --> 01:06:23,640 Speaker 4: But yeah it, let's face it, and you run when 1289 01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:27,480 Speaker 4: you're coordinating the when you're coordinating the Bill Buffalo Bill's offense, 1290 01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:29,960 Speaker 4: and you got Josh Allen, with Josh Allens your quarterback, 1291 01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:32,080 Speaker 4: that's where it centers. Now, how do you handle him 1292 01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:35,040 Speaker 4: and his ability to make the easy throws and then 1293 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:37,400 Speaker 4: every once in a while make a play? How do 1294 01:06:37,480 --> 01:06:39,840 Speaker 4: you how do you call plays to get the most 1295 01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:41,919 Speaker 4: out of him so that he can get the most 1296 01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:44,160 Speaker 4: out of the guys around him. And it's as much 1297 01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:47,760 Speaker 4: as psychological exercise as it is x's and o's. You 1298 01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:51,120 Speaker 4: gotta have a relationship. That's why Josh wanted wanted Ken Dorsey. 1299 01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:53,880 Speaker 4: They had a relationship. He was gonna feel good about 1300 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:56,520 Speaker 4: the mindset and all that, and it didn't go well 1301 01:06:56,800 --> 01:06:59,640 Speaker 4: when you got to try something else, you know, it's 1302 01:06:59,760 --> 01:07:04,280 Speaker 4: it's about that relationship. And like I said earlier, all 1303 01:07:04,320 --> 01:07:07,840 Speaker 4: these quarterbacks from Mahomes to Herbert to Daniel Jones and 1304 01:07:07,960 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 4: Mac Jones, all these got every quarterback in the league 1305 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:13,280 Speaker 4: that offense runs through their personality as much as through 1306 01:07:13,320 --> 01:07:17,400 Speaker 4: their skill sets. It's part of that's part of the 1307 01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:19,440 Speaker 4: hard job as the hard part of the job as 1308 01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:20,479 Speaker 4: much as the x's and o's. 1309 01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:23,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's get back to the phones and to Frank 1310 01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:24,800 Speaker 2: on a Selle, what do you got for his Frank 1311 01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:25,680 Speaker 2: you're on one Bill's Live. 1312 01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:30,200 Speaker 12: Yes, thanks for taking my call. I have three points 1313 01:07:30,600 --> 01:07:33,640 Speaker 12: three things to say and then one question number one, Brownie, 1314 01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 12: where's your resume been?

I've been listening 1317 01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:44,880 Speaker 12: to John Murphy for years with my grandpa but when 1318 01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:48,840 Speaker 12: I hear you talk about anything Buffalo Bill is related, 1319 01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:52,000 Speaker 12: I mean, my gosh, is it just fire me up? 1320 01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:54,880 Speaker 12: And you've only been doing it year one. So congratulations, 1321 01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,760 Speaker 12: Thank you. Number two, Steve, My mom had a crush 1322 01:07:57,800 --> 01:07:58,560 Speaker 12: on you growing up. 1323 01:07:58,640 --> 01:08:00,560 Speaker 18: That's how I even became a billgs fan. 1324 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:03,680 Speaker 12: Number three, Witch some boys. 1325 01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:06,200 Speaker 18: The Philadelphia Eagles are nine and one, They're only a 1326 01:08:06,240 --> 01:08:09,479 Speaker 18: three and a half point favorite. Why Bills are gonna 1327 01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:12,000 Speaker 18: take it to them? And Joe Brady has the biggest 1328 01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:14,880 Speaker 18: task that when they play the Eagles, and I think 1329 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:16,599 Speaker 18: not the Eagles up nine and two. 1330 01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:19,000 Speaker 12: I think that Brady has a you know, a pretty 1331 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:22,599 Speaker 12: good start. Now he was they were running the ball 1332 01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:25,439 Speaker 12: on third down. So when we heard you guys talk 1333 01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:28,599 Speaker 12: about why the build offense is so predictable, it's because 1334 01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:31,320 Speaker 12: they were throwing on third down. So the dump plays, 1335 01:08:31,479 --> 01:08:33,960 Speaker 12: Allen wasn't running, running backs were running. They were getting 1336 01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:36,360 Speaker 12: a little bit of a different feeling. There was looking 1337 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:41,280 Speaker 12: sexy on third down and you saw it what nine 1338 01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:44,400 Speaker 12: for the Jets to try to convert and they had 1339 01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:48,160 Speaker 12: zero yards, you know, in the first half. So you 1340 01:08:48,200 --> 01:08:50,960 Speaker 12: know that those are all good things. And you know, 1341 01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:54,120 Speaker 12: my final question is give me the best mock trade 1342 01:08:54,120 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 12: for Stefan Diggs. I know that's crazy and it's a 1343 01:08:57,200 --> 01:08:59,240 Speaker 12: different energy from what I just brought to the table. 1344 01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:02,040 Speaker 12: But what can we get for him? And I know 1345 01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:04,320 Speaker 12: he doesn't want to leave Buffalo, but what what is 1346 01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:07,040 Speaker 12: the best out there that you could see in return 1347 01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 12: that's going to help this team get to the super Bowl. 1348 01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:09,760 Speaker 12: I'll hang out. 1349 01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:11,160 Speaker 3: Thank you. Yeah, thanks, Frank. 1350 01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:15,920 Speaker 2: That was a that was a very interesting call, especially 1351 01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:18,760 Speaker 2: the part about his mom having a crush on you, Steve. 1352 01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:22,120 Speaker 3: That was that was fantastically in my life. Oh my 1353 01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:28,400 Speaker 3: grandma likes me. Yeah, I don't. I don't know that. 1354 01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:32,160 Speaker 2: We I understand where you're coming from, Frank, with respect 1355 01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:36,320 Speaker 2: to Stefan, and you know, the whole the whole theory 1356 01:09:36,360 --> 01:09:38,200 Speaker 2: of a year too early before a year too late. 1357 01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:42,840 Speaker 2: Stefan really can't go anywhere because of the nature of 1358 01:09:42,840 --> 01:09:45,400 Speaker 2: his contract. It's too much of a cap hit even 1359 01:09:45,479 --> 01:09:48,559 Speaker 2: next year for the Bills to sustain in light of 1360 01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:49,479 Speaker 2: their current situation. 1361 01:09:50,080 --> 01:09:52,320 Speaker 3: So I'm not going to entertain that. Really. 1362 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:55,320 Speaker 2: Uh, your point about the Eagles is well taken. They 1363 01:09:55,320 --> 01:09:57,160 Speaker 2: are only a three and a half point favorite at 1364 01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:59,559 Speaker 2: home as a nine to one football team in the NFC. 1365 01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:03,040 Speaker 2: I do think the Bills are capable of hanging with 1366 01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:07,880 Speaker 2: them and even beating them, even at their place. We 1367 01:10:08,080 --> 01:10:10,439 Speaker 2: just haven't seen the week to week consistency from the 1368 01:10:10,439 --> 01:10:12,840 Speaker 2: Bills as of yet. Last week was an encouraging sign, 1369 01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:17,120 Speaker 2: and you hope that all continues. But the Eagles have 1370 01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:18,840 Speaker 2: been the top dog in the NFC for over a 1371 01:10:18,920 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 2: year now and nobody has proven capable of unseating them 1372 01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:27,680 Speaker 2: from that perch. So you got to go in with 1373 01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:29,400 Speaker 2: a healthy dose of respect as well. 1374 01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:30,439 Speaker 3: You know. 1375 01:10:30,560 --> 01:10:32,360 Speaker 2: It's like a lot of our coaches through the years 1376 01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:35,559 Speaker 2: have said, growing up, you fear no one, but you 1377 01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:36,519 Speaker 2: respect everyone. 1378 01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:40,679 Speaker 3: And I think if the Bills go in with that approach, we're. 1379 01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:43,120 Speaker 2: Looking at a pretty good performance from Buffalo on Sunday. 1380 01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:45,719 Speaker 4: That's what he's talking about. Trade and staph. 1381 01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:47,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, we're not doing that. 1382 01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:50,040 Speaker 4: That ain't happening. They ain't happening. I'll just say this, 1383 01:10:50,280 --> 01:10:51,760 Speaker 4: you can say what you want. And Steph said it 1384 01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:53,559 Speaker 4: himself and I don't have to speak for him. He said, 1385 01:10:53,560 --> 01:10:55,960 Speaker 4: you know, he can't be responsible for whatever people feel, 1386 01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:59,719 Speaker 4: and everybody sees him on the sidelines, you know, yelling, screaming, 1387 01:10:59,800 --> 01:11:01,800 Speaker 4: doing this and doing this. Let me tell you something, 1388 01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:04,320 Speaker 4: his teammates love him, and he loves his teammates. Him 1389 01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:08,640 Speaker 4: and Josh are close and he All you got to 1390 01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:12,280 Speaker 4: do is stand up for one half a second and 1391 01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:15,599 Speaker 4: look around the National Football League. Say where else would 1392 01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:18,639 Speaker 4: Steph Diggs go? That would be better than where he's 1393 01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:20,080 Speaker 4: at right now. You say, oh, he'll play with his 1394 01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:23,600 Speaker 4: brother in Dallas. Dude, they're adults. They can spend the 1395 01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:27,360 Speaker 4: whole off season together if they're you know, what are 1396 01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:30,960 Speaker 4: you talking about. He's making a ton of cash and 1397 01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:34,400 Speaker 4: he's getting opportunity after opportunity after opportunity to be as 1398 01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:36,640 Speaker 4: good as he can be. He's a team captain and 1399 01:11:36,720 --> 01:11:40,120 Speaker 4: a club that loves him, and he's got a quarterback 1400 01:11:40,400 --> 01:11:45,040 Speaker 4: that feeds him. I mean, that's ain't nobody in the 1401 01:11:45,080 --> 01:11:48,160 Speaker 4: league got it better than Steph at wide out right now, 1402 01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:52,280 Speaker 4: mainly because there isn't another number two that's really, you know, 1403 01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:55,320 Speaker 4: calling for the ball over there. He's the guy, and 1404 01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:58,000 Speaker 4: that's right where every wide receiver wants to be. Steph 1405 01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:00,920 Speaker 4: has got it good and he knows it. He knows it. 1406 01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:01,479 Speaker 3: Now. 1407 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:03,760 Speaker 4: That doesn't mean it's gonna be smooth sailing. That does 1408 01:12:03,880 --> 01:12:07,720 Speaker 4: mean they're gonna be problems and challenges, bad games, missed opportunities, 1409 01:12:07,920 --> 01:12:09,720 Speaker 4: or games where he didn't get as many targets as 1410 01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:11,840 Speaker 4: he wish he would. All that stuff's gonna happen. It's 1411 01:12:11,840 --> 01:12:15,760 Speaker 4: gonna happen wherever else he goes to. So this stuff 1412 01:12:15,800 --> 01:12:19,400 Speaker 4: about Steph Diggs wanting out, getting out, not liking it 1413 01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:24,360 Speaker 4: is all bogus, top to bottom, from start to finish. 1414 01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:27,400 Speaker 4: And people see him yelling or something, him and Josh yell. 1415 01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 4: I don't care if Josh and him get into a 1416 01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:32,200 Speaker 4: shouting match on the sidelines. As soon as it's over, 1417 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:35,639 Speaker 4: it's over. That doesn't mean they're never gonna like each other. 1418 01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:40,080 Speaker 4: It's ain third grade. It's a third grade recess. These 1419 01:12:40,080 --> 01:12:42,360 Speaker 4: guys are friends, they're adult guys, and they laying on 1420 01:12:42,439 --> 01:12:44,280 Speaker 4: the line for each other, and they risk injury for 1421 01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:47,879 Speaker 4: each other. They ain't going anywhere. They ain't going anywhere. 1422 01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:52,720 Speaker 4: Steph Diggs ain't going anywhere. He's too good and he's 1423 01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:55,439 Speaker 4: been too good for too long. The guy's on a 1424 01:12:55,640 --> 01:12:58,559 Speaker 4: the guy is on a Hall of Fame trajectory. Right 1425 01:12:58,600 --> 01:13:02,920 Speaker 4: where he's at, Right where he's at, there's no reason 1426 01:13:02,960 --> 01:13:05,519 Speaker 4: for him to not like it. Where he's at club 1427 01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:09,720 Speaker 4: loves him, quarterback loves him, coach loves him, his teammates 1428 01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:14,160 Speaker 4: loves him, the fans love him. I don't know what 1429 01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:17,960 Speaker 4: the problem is with this. Yeah, so just give that up. 1430 01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:21,839 Speaker 4: Steph is going absolutely nowhere, absolutely nowhere. 1431 01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:25,880 Speaker 3: Let's go to Mark in Jersey City here before the break? 1432 01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:26,800 Speaker 3: What do you got for his mark? 1433 01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:34,920 Speaker 19: Good afternoon, gentlemen. Three points Eagles, Casey Bills. They desperately 1434 01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:40,200 Speaker 19: missed Dallas Goddard. Oh, because when they just worked on 1435 01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:44,080 Speaker 19: taking away Smith Brown and he that's his security blanket, 1436 01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:47,040 Speaker 19: and and he's big in the run game too. They 1437 01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:50,840 Speaker 19: really miss him. Hearts was just looking all over the 1438 01:13:50,880 --> 01:13:55,000 Speaker 19: place because he didn't seen number eighty eight. Similar thing 1439 01:13:55,080 --> 01:14:01,320 Speaker 19: with KC outside receivers h abysmal. Sky Moore doesn't look 1440 01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:04,599 Speaker 19: like a guy. Rachie Rice as a rookie, Scanaling dropped 1441 01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:06,760 Speaker 19: the winning Touchdowny Chelsea is starting to look a little old. 1442 01:14:07,160 --> 01:14:11,120 Speaker 19: I think that the accumulation of hits wear and tears 1443 01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:13,479 Speaker 19: played a lot of playoff games. He's starting, you know, 1444 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:17,400 Speaker 19: the whole celebrity circuit. It's it's looking a little like 1445 01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:21,360 Speaker 19: more downside of the career. Obviously, with age and the Bills. 1446 01:14:22,560 --> 01:14:25,240 Speaker 19: The whole thing with Alan and the NFL films. I 1447 01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:28,320 Speaker 19: feel like I'm effing back it. Just they played with 1448 01:14:28,320 --> 01:14:30,599 Speaker 19: a certain juice like and that was just a constant 1449 01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:33,720 Speaker 19: Buzzworth that he was last week energy juice. You see 1450 01:14:33,720 --> 01:14:36,200 Speaker 19: a guy like Ty Johnson just run hard. He had 1451 01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:38,880 Speaker 19: one really tough run early called back on a hold. 1452 01:14:39,200 --> 01:14:41,920 Speaker 19: Then he had the two really good catches, one that scored. 1453 01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:46,679 Speaker 19: We've all been craving a guy like Fournette. This kid 1454 01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:49,160 Speaker 19: pops off the practice squad, gets his chance, and maybe 1455 01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:51,760 Speaker 19: it's kind of an unwritten rule, go burn your old team, 1456 01:14:52,040 --> 01:14:54,400 Speaker 19: but I'd like to see him start to take some 1457 01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:56,200 Speaker 19: snaps from Latavius Murray. 1458 01:14:58,320 --> 01:15:02,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's good stuff. Mark. You're right. Every team's 1459 01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:04,960 Speaker 4: gonna go through it. I mean the Bills went through it. 1460 01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:08,280 Speaker 4: They thought they're gonna be a twelve personnel team, and 1461 01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:10,880 Speaker 4: you know, then Dawson Knox goes down with an risk 1462 01:15:10,880 --> 01:15:13,439 Speaker 4: and he's out for a month, and now you have 1463 01:15:13,479 --> 01:15:15,639 Speaker 4: no choice. You got to go forward as eleven personnel. 1464 01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:21,080 Speaker 4: Dallas Goddard, listen this note. And it's the same with 1465 01:15:21,120 --> 01:15:23,320 Speaker 4: the Bills, same with Philly, and same with Kansas City. 1466 01:15:23,360 --> 01:15:27,200 Speaker 4: When you lose good players, it's hard. It's harder doesn't 1467 01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:29,240 Speaker 4: mean you can't get it done. It's just harder to do. 1468 01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:32,040 Speaker 4: It's harder to do for the Chiefs without Tyreek Hill. 1469 01:15:32,400 --> 01:15:36,519 Speaker 4: It's harder to do for the Philadelphia Eagles without Dallas Goddard. 1470 01:15:36,800 --> 01:15:42,040 Speaker 4: It's harder to do when you know, like Anthony Richardson 1471 01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:44,280 Speaker 4: for the Colts goes down. It's harder to do when 1472 01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:46,680 Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson goes It's harder to do with when you 1473 01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:50,000 Speaker 4: lose good players, you're not as good and you're in 1474 01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:53,120 Speaker 4: a league that's really hard to win in. So yeah, 1475 01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:56,240 Speaker 4: it's about how well you can adapt to that void 1476 01:15:56,600 --> 01:15:59,120 Speaker 4: in your lineup and whether you've got guys that can 1477 01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:03,639 Speaker 4: mesh over it. We've seen Khalil Shakir blossom without Dawson 1478 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:06,639 Speaker 4: Knox in the lineup that there's no question about it. 1479 01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:12,280 Speaker 4: Dalton Kinkaid same thing, More more targets share with Khalil 1480 01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:18,360 Speaker 4: and and uh Dalton, more of those, more more opportunities 1481 01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:20,719 Speaker 4: for those two guys. The Bills have kind of washed 1482 01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:25,080 Speaker 4: over and mended that void that Knox left in the lineup. 1483 01:16:25,320 --> 01:16:27,479 Speaker 4: Other teams have got to do the same thing. They're 1484 01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:29,519 Speaker 4: having a hard time, just like the Bills would have 1485 01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:34,599 Speaker 4: or did, I mean they changed offensive coordinators, so it's 1486 01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:36,679 Speaker 4: hardly it's a hard lead to keep it going. I've 1487 01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:38,840 Speaker 4: said it. This is this season more than any other 1488 01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 4: I can remember. It's hard to play well for a 1489 01:16:42,479 --> 01:16:45,439 Speaker 4: long time. And it's only eighteen We always say only 1490 01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:47,160 Speaker 4: eighteen games. They all count of a lot. Yeah, you 1491 01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:49,719 Speaker 4: know what takes six months to play all those suckers. 1492 01:16:50,760 --> 01:16:55,240 Speaker 4: It's a long season. You can't. You can't hang in 1493 01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:58,760 Speaker 4: there and go. Teams have now you got teams that 1494 01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:01,639 Speaker 4: are you know, like the ill Philly's got a nice run. 1495 01:17:01,960 --> 01:17:04,439 Speaker 4: Teams can string together wins, but they don't all look good. 1496 01:17:06,840 --> 01:17:09,120 Speaker 3: Al Davis is smarter than we all thought when he said, just. 1497 01:17:09,120 --> 01:17:12,519 Speaker 4: Win, Just win, man, you gotta find a way just win, 1498 01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:15,679 Speaker 4: just win because they all stack up. But you can't. 1499 01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:20,040 Speaker 4: You can't play at a high elite level for months 1500 01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:21,840 Speaker 4: and months and months and months. It's a week to 1501 01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:22,519 Speaker 4: week game. 1502 01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:25,479 Speaker 2: Gotta take a break here, but when we come back, 1503 01:17:25,479 --> 01:17:27,560 Speaker 2: more of your phone calls. Dan in Rochester, John and 1504 01:17:27,560 --> 01:17:29,080 Speaker 2: Buffalo will get to you when we return. 1505 01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:29,280 Speaker 3: Here. 1506 01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:31,080 Speaker 2: On One Bill's Live, presented by Collid of Health, It's 1507 01:17:31,080 --> 01:17:32,000 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bill's Radio. 1508 01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:53,200 Speaker 3: I'll go back to one Bill's Live. 1509 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:55,479 Speaker 2: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you on a very wet 1510 01:17:55,520 --> 01:17:58,320 Speaker 2: and rainy Tuesday here in Western New York. I want 1511 01:17:58,320 --> 01:18:00,320 Speaker 2: to get right back to the phones, where we're asking 1512 01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:02,800 Speaker 2: you for your thoughts after watching that Monday night game 1513 01:18:02,880 --> 01:18:06,920 Speaker 2: that featured Buffalo's next two opponents, the Philadelphia Eagles and 1514 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:08,080 Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs. 1515 01:18:08,120 --> 01:18:09,600 Speaker 3: It was a bit of a slog whether it was 1516 01:18:09,640 --> 01:18:10,120 Speaker 3: a factor. 1517 01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:12,240 Speaker 2: Let us know what you come out of that game 1518 01:18:12,320 --> 01:18:14,960 Speaker 2: thinking about not only those two teams, but the Bill's 1519 01:18:15,080 --> 01:18:17,920 Speaker 2: chances over the next two games with a bye week 1520 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:20,800 Speaker 2: sandwiched in between. To the phones, we go at eight 1521 01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:22,919 Speaker 2: h three h five fifty in to Dan in Rochester. 1522 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:23,760 Speaker 3: What do you got for us? Dan? 1523 01:18:25,280 --> 01:18:26,559 Speaker 9: Hey, guys love the show. 1524 01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:27,200 Speaker 10: Hey. 1525 01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:29,800 Speaker 17: First of all, I just got to say, all these. 1526 01:18:29,560 --> 01:18:31,439 Speaker 9: Fans that are you know, I mean, it's been a 1527 01:18:31,439 --> 01:18:36,559 Speaker 9: hard season to look positively at things. But when we 1528 01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:38,519 Speaker 9: do pull it together and we win the Super Bowl, 1529 01:18:38,520 --> 01:18:40,640 Speaker 9: I hope they all feel really guilty coming to the 1530 01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:41,120 Speaker 9: Super Bowl. 1531 01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:41,439 Speaker 5: Pray. 1532 01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:47,600 Speaker 9: Anyways, what I was gonna say is, if McDermott was 1533 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:50,800 Speaker 9: just the defensive coordinator this year, everybody in the league 1534 01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:53,000 Speaker 9: would be saying his praises because of the job he's 1535 01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:57,040 Speaker 9: done with all the problems and injuries and everything. The 1536 01:18:57,120 --> 01:19:00,479 Speaker 9: problem is he's doing a great job on the defense. 1537 01:19:00,680 --> 01:19:04,960 Speaker 9: We've lost He lost his attention or the attention to 1538 01:19:05,040 --> 01:19:09,160 Speaker 9: detail with the other two phases. Maybe he thought he 1539 01:19:09,240 --> 01:19:13,400 Speaker 9: had coaches that were more more detail oriented, or because 1540 01:19:13,439 --> 01:19:16,280 Speaker 9: he doesn't have the time to spend with those other 1541 01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:19,559 Speaker 9: parts of the game. Now they've slipped a little bit. 1542 01:19:20,160 --> 01:19:21,599 Speaker 9: But possibly now. 1543 01:19:21,560 --> 01:19:22,599 Speaker 19: He pulls together. 1544 01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:26,479 Speaker 9: We have an offense now that maybe he's not worried 1545 01:19:26,520 --> 01:19:29,200 Speaker 9: about the position that's going to keep putting his defense in. 1546 01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:33,160 Speaker 9: Somehow he straightens out a little bit of the detail 1547 01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:37,719 Speaker 9: work with the special teams. We put together a run. 1548 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:41,240 Speaker 9: If there's every year to be up and down like this, 1549 01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:44,000 Speaker 9: it's the year when every other good team in the 1550 01:19:44,040 --> 01:19:47,799 Speaker 9: AFC is up and down just like us. The conference 1551 01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:50,880 Speaker 9: record concerns me, But I think we can still put 1552 01:19:50,920 --> 01:19:53,479 Speaker 9: this together go on a run. I'm hoping you guys 1553 01:19:53,479 --> 01:19:55,160 Speaker 9: think the same thing. I'll shut up and listen. 1554 01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:57,599 Speaker 3: Yeah, no problem, Dan, thanks for the call. Yeah, I mean, 1555 01:19:57,840 --> 01:19:59,960 Speaker 3: Steve said it many times. I'll echo it. 1556 01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:03,320 Speaker 2: This team certainly has the capability of doing that, and 1557 01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:05,960 Speaker 2: the fact that they've done it in the past only 1558 01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:09,840 Speaker 2: reinforces that fact that it is possible. I mean, they 1559 01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:13,360 Speaker 2: ran off what was it, seven wins last year after 1560 01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:18,240 Speaker 2: losing in Week ten and finished thirteen and three. Now, 1561 01:20:18,280 --> 01:20:20,880 Speaker 2: there were other circumstances at play. The demor Hamlin event 1562 01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:23,920 Speaker 2: kind of compromised them as a team emotionally, and the 1563 01:20:23,960 --> 01:20:27,640 Speaker 2: playoff run wasn't what everybody anticipated it would be. But 1564 01:20:28,400 --> 01:20:30,160 Speaker 2: it's in there. I mean, they did it in twenty 1565 01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:32,679 Speaker 2: twenty one as well. They fall to seven and six 1566 01:20:32,720 --> 01:20:35,439 Speaker 2: after an overtime loss to Tampa Bay and they rip 1567 01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:37,040 Speaker 2: off four wins at the end of the season and 1568 01:20:37,040 --> 01:20:39,080 Speaker 2: play their best playoff football that maybe we've seen in 1569 01:20:39,080 --> 01:20:42,960 Speaker 2: the McDermott era, including the perfect game against New England 1570 01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:47,720 Speaker 2: here at home. So yeah, it's as Steve says all 1571 01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:51,080 Speaker 2: the time, it's under the hood. They just have to 1572 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:55,080 Speaker 2: get the engine started and keep it in gear. So 1573 01:20:55,680 --> 01:20:58,679 Speaker 2: if they can do that, yeah, they're capable of beating anybody, 1574 01:20:58,680 --> 01:21:00,839 Speaker 2: even the Eagles and Chiefs to bad games. 1575 01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:04,080 Speaker 4: That's right. They certainly have it under the hood to 1576 01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:07,439 Speaker 4: do it. Josh gives them a chance against any opponent, 1577 01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:09,280 Speaker 4: no matter what the rest of the roster looks like 1578 01:21:09,479 --> 01:21:11,400 Speaker 4: and whenever the rest of the roster chips in and 1579 01:21:11,439 --> 01:21:14,800 Speaker 4: they don't turn it over, they're they're impossible to beat. 1580 01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:19,840 Speaker 4: So you get this. You get to this point of 1581 01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:23,320 Speaker 4: the season, though, and their margin Neaverara's gone. I mean, 1582 01:21:23,320 --> 01:21:25,400 Speaker 4: they gotta win. They gotta win a bunch of games. 1583 01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:27,679 Speaker 4: And they got to do it against the Philadelphia Eagles, 1584 01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:29,640 Speaker 4: the Kansas City Chiefs, and the Dallas Cowboys in the 1585 01:21:29,640 --> 01:21:33,640 Speaker 4: next three games, three teams that are clicking with a 1586 01:21:33,640 --> 01:21:37,160 Speaker 4: lot of talent. That's hard. That is hard to do. Yeah, 1587 01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:39,559 Speaker 4: that's what That's the only reason to get That's the 1588 01:21:39,560 --> 01:21:41,639 Speaker 4: only thing that gives you pause. If it was if 1589 01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:45,800 Speaker 4: it was Chicago, Green Bay and Arizona, We're all sitting 1590 01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:47,880 Speaker 4: here going, Okay, how are we gonna look when we're 1591 01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:50,280 Speaker 4: you know, eight and five. You know, how are we 1592 01:21:50,280 --> 01:21:52,040 Speaker 4: gonna look when we're nine and five after we win 1593 01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:56,519 Speaker 4: these three games. That's that's not where we're at. You know. Yeah, 1594 01:21:56,560 --> 01:21:58,559 Speaker 4: they've got it under the hood to beat lesser teams, 1595 01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:00,719 Speaker 4: but they're not playing a lesser teams, so they're planes 1596 01:22:01,160 --> 01:22:05,800 Speaker 4: the cream of the of both conferences. So they got 1597 01:22:05,800 --> 01:22:08,120 Speaker 4: a click and they can't. Their margin of error is 1598 01:22:08,320 --> 01:22:10,080 Speaker 4: used up? Yeah, used up. 1599 01:22:10,880 --> 01:22:13,120 Speaker 2: That's the fly in the ointment. Let's go to John 1600 01:22:13,120 --> 01:22:14,439 Speaker 2: and Buffalo next. What do you got for us? 1601 01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:14,760 Speaker 3: John? 1602 01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:18,280 Speaker 8: Hey, guys, I just wanted to say a few things. 1603 01:22:18,439 --> 01:22:22,240 Speaker 8: I'm extremely happy how the offense operated under Joe Brady 1604 01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:26,080 Speaker 8: as well as last night's game. It was very promising 1605 01:22:26,200 --> 01:22:29,400 Speaker 8: seeing both those offenses struggle on the field. And my 1606 01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:32,040 Speaker 8: last thing, I've been hearing a lot of people calling 1607 01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:34,920 Speaker 8: wondering what we're gonna do with Dawson Knox. But a 1608 01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:38,000 Speaker 8: simple fix for that was, why can't we just alternate 1609 01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:41,519 Speaker 8: between Dawson Knox and Dalton Kincaid to give them a 1610 01:22:41,560 --> 01:22:44,280 Speaker 8: little more air in between rocks? And that's it? 1611 01:22:45,120 --> 01:22:47,519 Speaker 3: Yeah? Okay, John, thanks, I get it. 1612 01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:50,680 Speaker 2: You know, people see Kinkaid emerging and saying, wow, what 1613 01:22:50,720 --> 01:22:55,040 Speaker 2: about Dawson Knox now, and people are like seemingly ready 1614 01:22:55,040 --> 01:22:56,439 Speaker 2: to throw them overboard. I was like, we hold on 1615 01:22:56,520 --> 01:23:00,280 Speaker 2: a second. Dawson Knox isn't like Chop Suey or anything. 1616 01:23:00,479 --> 01:23:03,599 Speaker 2: Guy's a good player. You don't get rid of good 1617 01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:07,559 Speaker 2: players because you never know when you're gonna need them, 1618 01:23:08,240 --> 01:23:11,360 Speaker 2: you know, Sean McDermott said yesterday that you know, even 1619 01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:14,360 Speaker 2: though Knox has been on the required minimum of four 1620 01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:16,840 Speaker 2: games on injured reserve, he's not yet ready to return 1621 01:23:16,880 --> 01:23:20,280 Speaker 2: from his wrist surgery and subsequent rehab. And so what 1622 01:23:20,360 --> 01:23:23,240 Speaker 2: you have is a situation that's probably gonna take a 1623 01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:26,639 Speaker 2: little more time. But the guy is a good player. 1624 01:23:26,800 --> 01:23:31,000 Speaker 2: He's been productive. He has a nine touchdown season. Have 1625 01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:34,679 Speaker 2: we forgotten that? Yeah, a nine touchdown season. The guy 1626 01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:37,880 Speaker 2: can play. He doesn't have the same skill set as 1627 01:23:37,960 --> 01:23:40,280 Speaker 2: Dalton kincaid. I'll bet you Dawson Knox would even tell 1628 01:23:40,320 --> 01:23:42,840 Speaker 2: you that, but the guy can certainly help you in 1629 01:23:42,880 --> 01:23:46,120 Speaker 2: the red zone. I'll sign up for a sixty five, 1630 01:23:46,360 --> 01:23:48,719 Speaker 2: two hundred and sixty pound target any day of the week. 1631 01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:52,639 Speaker 4: Here's the thing, too, you don't have to play these 1632 01:23:52,680 --> 01:23:54,360 Speaker 4: guys just because you want to make them feel good. 1633 01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 4: You play who's gonna help you win, period. And what 1634 01:23:58,240 --> 01:24:00,240 Speaker 4: happens if, okay, say, for instance, you just I had 1635 01:24:00,240 --> 01:24:02,200 Speaker 4: to kick Knox to the curb or trade him. You 1636 01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:07,240 Speaker 4: trade him for a whatever, you pick it, so you 1637 01:24:07,280 --> 01:24:09,599 Speaker 4: trade him, and then the next week, Dalton kin kaid 1638 01:24:09,880 --> 01:24:12,000 Speaker 4: tweaks his ankle and he's out for three weeks. Now, 1639 01:24:12,040 --> 01:24:15,040 Speaker 4: what are you gonna do. You're better with good players 1640 01:24:15,080 --> 01:24:17,439 Speaker 4: on your team. There's nothing that says Dawson Knox and 1641 01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:22,719 Speaker 4: Dalton Kinkaid can't alternate or coexist either on the field 1642 01:24:22,720 --> 01:24:24,960 Speaker 4: at the same time, or if one of them sits 1643 01:24:25,520 --> 01:24:27,800 Speaker 4: for an entire game or an entire month before he 1644 01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:30,639 Speaker 4: plays because the other one's playing really well. Good problems 1645 01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:35,120 Speaker 4: to have. I'll take those problems and let the emotions 1646 01:24:35,120 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 4: of it, you know, take care of themselves. You don't 1647 01:24:40,040 --> 01:24:45,360 Speaker 4: have to bend over backwards to make sure everybody's all happy, 1648 01:24:45,400 --> 01:24:47,599 Speaker 4: go lucky. It's a pro football and when the team's 1649 01:24:47,640 --> 01:24:50,280 Speaker 4: playing and the team's winning and everything's clicking on all cylinders, 1650 01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:54,160 Speaker 4: nobody in the locker room is gonna squawk. Nobody in 1651 01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:56,519 Speaker 4: the locker room is gonna squawk. So if they need 1652 01:24:56,600 --> 01:24:59,800 Speaker 4: Dawson Knox and he's ready, they'll play him. If they 1653 01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:04,599 Speaker 4: they won't. And same thing with Dalton Kinkaid. When they 1654 01:25:04,600 --> 01:25:06,200 Speaker 4: need him on the field and he's ready, they are 1655 01:25:06,200 --> 01:25:08,200 Speaker 4: gonna put him out there. If they got a better 1656 01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:11,559 Speaker 4: option in Dawson Knox or or Quintin Morris or anybody else, 1657 01:25:11,720 --> 01:25:14,720 Speaker 4: they're the ones who are gonna play. So I this 1658 01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:18,519 Speaker 4: isn't Pop Warner football. If they need you, they put 1659 01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:20,599 Speaker 4: you in. If they don't sit on the bench until 1660 01:25:20,600 --> 01:25:23,280 Speaker 4: we call your name. I'm exaggerating to make a point 1661 01:25:23,439 --> 01:25:25,479 Speaker 4: because there's a lot of relationships and all this stuff 1662 01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:27,840 Speaker 4: in there. These guys all like each other. But that's 1663 01:25:27,840 --> 01:25:30,400 Speaker 4: the way it works. That's the way it works. Yeah, 1664 01:25:30,520 --> 01:25:32,600 Speaker 4: you sit down until we call on you and be 1665 01:25:32,720 --> 01:25:33,639 Speaker 4: ready when we do. 1666 01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:36,320 Speaker 2: And it's as Steve said earlier, it's a long season. 1667 01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:40,400 Speaker 2: You're gonna need everybody. The season is too long to 1668 01:25:40,400 --> 01:25:42,840 Speaker 2: not have roster depth. Let's go to Don and cheek 1669 01:25:42,840 --> 01:25:44,559 Speaker 2: Towaga here before the break. What do you got for us? 1670 01:25:44,640 --> 01:25:45,160 Speaker 3: Don? 1671 01:25:46,160 --> 01:25:48,479 Speaker 11: Hey, guys, Yeah, I wanted to make a comment about that. 1672 01:25:48,600 --> 01:25:51,400 Speaker 11: I don't know why people are throwing Dawson Knox to 1673 01:25:51,479 --> 01:25:55,320 Speaker 11: the side, because having more talent is always better than 1674 01:25:55,360 --> 01:25:58,840 Speaker 11: having less. And that's what Brady has as an extra 1675 01:25:58,920 --> 01:26:01,479 Speaker 11: guy that he can you on the field at any 1676 01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:04,439 Speaker 11: given time. So a couple points I want to make 1677 01:26:04,479 --> 01:26:07,599 Speaker 11: real quick. I really feel confident in the next two games. 1678 01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:11,000 Speaker 11: My reason being is Philly played last night on a 1679 01:26:11,040 --> 01:26:14,160 Speaker 11: Monday night, gives us an extra day prepare, gives them 1680 01:26:14,200 --> 01:26:19,200 Speaker 11: that less day to prepare going into the buy. I really, 1681 01:26:19,280 --> 01:26:21,840 Speaker 11: it's coming at a perfect time for the Bills. I mean, 1682 01:26:22,200 --> 01:26:24,479 Speaker 11: if you couldn't ask for a better time for a BUYE. 1683 01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:27,559 Speaker 11: This is coming up two weeks to prepare for Casey, 1684 01:26:27,600 --> 01:26:30,400 Speaker 11: and then we obviously have Dallas coming to town. I 1685 01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:34,559 Speaker 11: love our chances. I think posit. You know, listen, Josh 1686 01:26:34,640 --> 01:26:36,599 Speaker 11: had a little more fire under him. I mean, let's 1687 01:26:36,880 --> 01:26:39,640 Speaker 11: be honest, he had a little bit to do with 1688 01:26:39,840 --> 01:26:43,479 Speaker 11: why Dorsey was fired, so he was not playing up 1689 01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:46,640 Speaker 11: to level. I like what I saw. And let's be 1690 01:26:46,680 --> 01:26:49,880 Speaker 11: host Brady is. You know, the guy's fighting for his 1691 01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:52,200 Speaker 11: job next year to be the offensive coordinator of the 1692 01:26:52,240 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 11: Buffalo Bills. So he's gonna do everything in his power 1693 01:26:55,680 --> 01:26:58,360 Speaker 11: to make it happen and to go forward. So I 1694 01:26:58,520 --> 01:27:00,639 Speaker 11: like our chances. The next couple of weeks, I will 1695 01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:01,960 Speaker 11: hang up and listen to you guys. 1696 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:03,559 Speaker 3: All right, don thanks very much. 1697 01:27:03,640 --> 01:27:06,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, your points well taken about talent can never have enough, 1698 01:27:06,560 --> 01:27:08,560 Speaker 2: And like I just said a minute ago, it's a 1699 01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:09,160 Speaker 2: long season. 1700 01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:09,959 Speaker 3: You need everybody. 1701 01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:13,760 Speaker 4: Good players make you better. If you want to get better, 1702 01:27:13,760 --> 01:27:15,840 Speaker 4: get better players. If you want to get worse, get 1703 01:27:15,880 --> 01:27:18,320 Speaker 4: rid of good players. Now that's just that simple. 1704 01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:19,599 Speaker 3: Got to take a break here. 1705 01:27:19,640 --> 01:27:21,599 Speaker 2: We'll get some final thoughts on the tweet cheet when 1706 01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:23,840 Speaker 2: we return here on One Bill's Live, presented by Colida Health, 1707 01:27:23,840 --> 01:27:39,479 Speaker 2: It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right back here on One 1708 01:27:39,520 --> 01:27:41,639 Speaker 2: Bill's Lives, some final thoughts on the tweet sheet brought 1709 01:27:41,640 --> 01:27:44,240 Speaker 2: to you by Corgan Moving Systems, the official equipment moving 1710 01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:47,000 Speaker 2: company of the Buffalo Bills, and we were asking for 1711 01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:49,320 Speaker 2: your thoughts coming out of that Monday night game between 1712 01:27:49,360 --> 01:27:52,120 Speaker 2: the Eagles and Chiefs, the next two opponents for the Bills. 1713 01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:55,160 Speaker 2: Steve says, seasons have their ups and downs, and it's 1714 01:27:55,160 --> 01:27:57,320 Speaker 2: hard to stay amped up for eighteen straight weeks. We 1715 01:27:57,360 --> 01:27:59,920 Speaker 2: played with energy and purpose last weekend that we have 1716 01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:02,400 Speaker 2: not had all year, and I think that trend continues. 1717 01:28:02,439 --> 01:28:04,960 Speaker 2: I truly believe the Bills will win out because their 1718 01:28:05,040 --> 01:28:10,040 Speaker 2: backs are against it. Tim says that Tarren Johnson needs 1719 01:28:10,080 --> 01:28:12,800 Speaker 2: to pass concussion protocol or they have very little chance 1720 01:28:12,840 --> 01:28:15,479 Speaker 2: of being competitive. McDuffie was the wild card that created 1721 01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:19,320 Speaker 2: a lot of fits backfield on screens, and defensive play 1722 01:28:19,320 --> 01:28:21,960 Speaker 2: calling needs to be much less predictable, which will be 1723 01:28:22,040 --> 01:28:25,080 Speaker 2: a test for McDermott. Yeah, Taron Johnson if he can't 1724 01:28:25,080 --> 01:28:28,559 Speaker 2: get out of concussion protocol this week, the task becomes 1725 01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:30,800 Speaker 2: a little bit stiffer because then you're looking at a 1726 01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:33,360 Speaker 2: matchup of Devonte Smith and Cam Lewis. 1727 01:28:33,720 --> 01:28:36,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's a challenge. It's gonna be a 1728 01:28:36,280 --> 01:28:38,479 Speaker 4: tough game. Uh, this is not gonna be a walk 1729 01:28:38,520 --> 01:28:40,040 Speaker 4: in the park for either of these teams. And it's 1730 01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:44,519 Speaker 4: gonna be nip and tuck. And somebody mentioned the Phillies 1731 01:28:44,560 --> 01:28:47,759 Speaker 4: a slight favorite at home three. 1732 01:28:47,640 --> 01:28:48,320 Speaker 3: And a half points. 1733 01:28:49,920 --> 01:28:51,479 Speaker 4: It's gonna be that close. It's gonna be one of 1734 01:28:51,520 --> 01:28:52,040 Speaker 4: those games. 1735 01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:53,920 Speaker 3: Jess says. The Eagles are really good. 1736 01:28:54,040 --> 01:28:57,320 Speaker 2: Can't make any mistakes, turnovers, bad penalties. If we want 1737 01:28:57,360 --> 01:29:00,719 Speaker 2: to beat them, go Bills. Emily's it says, both teams 1738 01:29:00,720 --> 01:29:02,599 Speaker 2: are subpar last night. It'll be interesting to see how 1739 01:29:02,600 --> 01:29:04,360 Speaker 2: the Eagles will play on such a short week after 1740 01:29:04,400 --> 01:29:06,599 Speaker 2: a rather difficult win. The Bills should one hundred percent 1741 01:29:06,640 --> 01:29:10,439 Speaker 2: capitalize on the opportunity presented by the Chiefs losing and 1742 01:29:10,479 --> 01:29:13,920 Speaker 2: the Eagles offense not being at its best. 1743 01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:15,479 Speaker 3: It couldn't have been said better Emily. 1744 01:29:15,760 --> 01:29:18,520 Speaker 4: Unfamiliar opponents. We'll see and look for some surprises. 1745 01:29:18,640 --> 01:29:20,920 Speaker 3: We'll have more on the game Tomorrow we'll see at 1746 01:29:20,920 --> 01:29:21,120 Speaker 3: one
