Speaker 1: season that I don't know if I don't know if

39
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 1: there's been any more anticipation for a season since maybe

40
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 1: the nineties. So it's going to be a lot of fun.

41
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 1: But Maddie is back in the saddle after awhile long

42
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 1: layoff with good reason though, as you are now a

43
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: married woman, congratulations, And just from the pictures alone, I

44
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: can tell you had a fantastic honeymoon as you criss

45
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 1: crossed your way through. Let me see if I can

46
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: remember the dang body of water? What is it? The

47
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: Aegean Sea for Greece, and then the Adriatic on the

48
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: east coast of Italy. You're on the Amalfi coast, right

49
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: was I don't think it was the Adriatic Sea. The

50
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 1: Adriatic I think is between Italy and Croatia. So I

51
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,239
Speaker 1: looked this up because somebody said what sea we were?

52
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 1: So the age and see I know is right for Greece.

53
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: The Mediterranean scene, Oh Mediterranean? Okay, all right, that counts

54
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: fair enough. Um, yeah, so you were. We did four

55
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: or four countries in two and a half weeks. That's awesome,

56
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,519
Speaker 1: counting the wedding. Okay, so half a week for the wedding.

57
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: You had a destination wedding. We started in Mexico, which

58
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: was awesome. Um, wanted to do a destination wedding? Why not?

59
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 1: I really wanted to just lock all of my favorite

60
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: people in one place for a weekend, because I feel

61
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: like a six hour wedding just is not enough time

62
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: for somebody who has lived in so many different places.

63
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: Okay and my husband have bounced all over the country,

64
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't get to see all

65
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 1: these people really ever, um maybe once every few years.

66
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: I got different states to visit people where I've lived,

67
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: people who have made connections with and since I was

68
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: inviting all of them in my wedding, I was like,

69
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: one day is not enough. How can we do a

70
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: few days with an awesome group of people. So we

71
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: decided to do Mexico because it was you know, it's

72
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: pretty affordable for everybody to get out to Mexico, to

73
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: fly out to Mexico at least picked like an all

74
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: inclusive resort and did it there. So it was three

75
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 1: days long, a lot of fun, a lot of party in,

76
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 1: a lot of pool time, a lot of beach time,

77
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: a lot of dancing. So it was everything I wanted

78
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: in a wedding, which was just like a weekend full

79
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 1: of fun. That's an interesting perspective that you took, especially

80
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 1: when you really don't have a true home base for

81
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 1: more than four or five years at any one point

82
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: in time. Yeah, to kind of pull all those people

83
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: together and then do it in one spot on one day.

84
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: I think anybody that's gotten married, we'll tell you it's

85
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: over in the blink of an eye between ceremony and reception.

86
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: You're like, what the heck happened? Before you know it,

87
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 1: you're on your honeymoon. Yeah. I think that's that's a

88
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 1: good way to do it for someone like you. And

89
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: we've lived in ten different states and we're each we're

90
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 1: I think a smart way to go. We we have

91
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 1: a lot of people in a lot of different places.

92
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: It's not just saying hi and buy to somebody in

93
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 1: a receiving line. You know, you a couple of days

94
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: pool side, bar side, wherever else. Yep. So what so?

95
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: What was your favorite part of the trip though you

96
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 1: were in Italy? Grease? Where else did you hit? Yeah?

97
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 1: We started in Mecanos, which was fun to fly from

98
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 1: Mexico to Mecanos, Grease. We went Mexico to to Istanbul,

99
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 1: to me to Athens, and then from Athens we flew

100
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: to Micanos. So it was it was a trip to

101
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: get out there. But I'm a pretty good traveler. I've

102
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: been on really long flights before. I've been in Vietnam,

103
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: I've been in Africa, so I know how those long

104
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 1: flights go, so it was no big deal for me

105
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,359
Speaker 1: and Steve Um. So we got to Micanos. We were

106
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 1: there for a couple of days. Um did the whole

107
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: beach club thing that's really popular in Micanos Grease, which

108
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: was fun. It was nice to We stayed kind of

109
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: outside of the city at a really nice hotel that

110
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: was right on the water. So it got to chill,

111
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 1: got to relax after a year of planning a wedding,

112
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: which people, if you're listening who have done it, I'm

113
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: sure you totally understand. You need that a couple of

114
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 1: days to just chill. And then we went to Sa

115
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: Turini for a couple of days. Then we yes beautiful,

116
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,839
Speaker 1: so beautiful, really great food in Grease. We did a

117
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,799
Speaker 1: lot of research and people are saying, you know, food

118
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 1: is not that great in Grease. It was awesome food

119
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: in Grease, a lot of great fish. I ate all

120
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: of the Greek salads that I could get my hands on.

121
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of Greek salads. And then we

122
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: flew to the Almafi coast and spent a week in

123
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: the Almafi coast, so we did like a two week honeymoon.

124
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: We stayed in posy Tano, which is like the center

125
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: hub of the Almafi coast, I would say, and from

126
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 1: there we kind of bopped around to different cities within

127
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: the Almafi coast, but stayed like really close to the water. Um.

128
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 1: You know, it was about five hundred steps down to

129
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: the beach. I've never walked up and down so many

130
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: steps in my life. That city is you know, it's

131
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: built on a hill, so you you taken steps up

132
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: and down everywhere. Of course we're like lugging our luggage

133
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 1: up and down steps to get back down and get

134
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: back up. And we were coming and going. Yeah, that

135
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: was that was a little bit annoying, but beautiful places. Um,

136
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: Italy is a beautiful country, so's grease. And then on

137
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: our way home, we had a seven hour layover in Paris,

138
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: so I was like, I need to go into Paris.

139
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 1: Popped out the yep. So we went into Paris for

140
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: like an hour and a half to see the Eiffel Tower,

141
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: get some crapes, see the louver, and then we were

142
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: heading back to Buffalo. So awesome. Yeah, I think question

143
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: here is because you shared this with me. There was

144
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: an AB contest. There was an AB contest yourself and

145
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: you betrothed. Who won the AB contest? I won it

146
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: based on my friends at the wedding when we were

147
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: at we had like a pool party at the wedding,

155
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: we had bachelor bachelorette parties and we had a wedding

156
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: to go to, so we weren't like crazy stript about it.

157
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: But the big thing for Steve and maybe a little

158
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: bit me, but cutting out beer was huge for him. Yeah.

159
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 1: Empty carbs, yes, empty carbs. We were. We were in

160
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: shape for the wedding. And then we we ate all

161
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: the food on the hoeymoon, which I was so excited

162
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: to do. I mean pasta and pizza. We also stopped

163
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: in Naples for a couple of days too. I forgot

164
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: to say that, um so getting pizza was I ate pizza.

165
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 1: I think every day when we were in Italy so good.

166
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 1: I ate gelato every day whenever we got a lot

167
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: of gelato, too, got a lot of it so much.

168
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't, I shouldn't say it's so much

169
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: better than ice cream. It's different from ice cream. I

170
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 1: like it way better than ice There's something I like

171
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: about it that really, yeah, really appeals to me. And

172
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: it's actually healthier than than ice cream. I mean not

173
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: that gelato's like, yeah, health food, but it's healthier than

174
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 1: ice cream. It's just it's phenomenal. So it's an amazing,

175
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 1: amazing trip. But I'm excited to be back after all

176
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,959
Speaker 1: that traveling, you know, two and a half weeks traveling.

177
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 1: I wish I could travel my entire life, but I

178
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: was also excited to get back. You would do life here,

179
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: You would live out of a bank for a while

180
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: if I would, I'm no, I don't need a home.

181
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 1: I could. Yeah, you could be a total No. I

182
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: did not know that I could be a nomad. It

183
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: could be a total nomad. Yeah, I'm a really good traveler.

184
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: I love traveling. I love seeing things. I love doing things. Yeah.

185
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 1: All right, So well, how many continents do you have left?

186
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: You've hit quite a few. Australia, yeah, Antarctica? Where else?

187
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 1: South America? Have been to? South America, North America, Europe, Asia?

188
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 1: Oh wow? Oyay, so you got Antarctica in Australia. Yeah,

189
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: the list is small. Are you seriously going to try

190
00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 1: to hit Antarctica? No? But Steve, my husband has Wow. Yeah,

191
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I would never want to go. I don't know,

192
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. What are you going to do? The destination?

193
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: You go to walk around onto the check it off

194
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 1: your list of penguins? Yeah, which which he did. He's

195
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 1: he's also a huge traveler. We share that, which is great.

196
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 1: He has to check off every continent. He has Australia

197
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: left on his list. So all right, well I think

198
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: something tells me that's going to happen. So all right,

199
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: Well I'm glad you had a blast. That's awesome. Um,

200
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 1: can't beat honeymoons there. That's when you do some of you. Yeah,

201
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: or countries like Italy and Greece. You you love Italy too.

202
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: You've been there, fortunate enough to have been there a

203
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: couple of times it's fantastic. So yeah, it'll be great

204
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 1: and get out there and travel people. If you haven't

205
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 1: been those places and you can, I would highly highly recommend.

206
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 1: It was an awesome trip and it was easy to

207
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: get around, so easy to get around. Yeah, we we

208
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: do have what has turned in to a very busy

209
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: NFL newsday. It started off with some notes that we

210
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: wanted to pass along to you, and then a couple

211
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: of more were added to the list, pretty big ones.

212
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: In fact, the headliner right now, because it just happened

213
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 1: about an hour before we came on the air. Here,

214
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, has a new

215
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: contract extension. Adam Schefter is reporting it's five years, two

216
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: hundred thirty and a half million, one hundred sixty million

217
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 1: of which is guaranteed. It makes Murray the second highest

218
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 1: paid quarterback in average annual salary at just over forty

219
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: six million dollars per season. The interesting thing here that

220
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: I've seen people tweet Field Yates tweeted this Maddie a

221
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 1: little while ago. So Kyler Murray has a five year,

222
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 1: two hundred thirty and a half million dollar deal. Deshaun

223
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 1: Watson has a five year, two hundred thirty million dollar deal.

224
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 1: Watson's entire contract is guaranteed. Murray only has about seventy

225
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: percent of his contract guaranteed. So, man, like, does it

226
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: still make you shake your head at the Browns? Because

227
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: it does for me. I don't know what to think

228
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: of it. I will always be shaking my head at

229
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: the Browns. What are you doing? Meanwhile? The Bills Brandon

230
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: Bean is sitting up in his office right now, go on, yeah,

231
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: I just got smarter today. We did that right, We

232
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: did that right. It just got smarter today. I mean,

233
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 1: that deal is going to continue to look better as

234
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 1: each new quarterback signs a monster deal. And what's interesting

235
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: to me is if you asked me to pick who

236
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: I thought would get a monster contract extension first, Lamar

237
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: Jackson or Kyler Murray, I would have said Lamar a

238
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: hundred times out of a hundred. But again, I go

239
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: back to the type of organization that the Ravens have

240
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: been in and the type of organization the Cardinals have been.

241
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: The Cardinals sometimes knee jerk and pay somebody, and at

242
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 1: times they live to regret it. I mean, look, Baltimore

243
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 1: can sign Lamar tomorrow. Who knows Baltimore tends to play

244
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: the waiting game and let it play out a little

245
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 1: bit more and let the player convince them. Because since

246
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 1: Lamar's MVP year, which I want to say was twenty nineteen,

247
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: I think it was twenty nineteen, the results have been

248
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 1: kind of mixed and he hasn't really measured up to

249
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,199
Speaker 1: that MVP year the last couple of years. Injuries obviously

250
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: were a big problem last year, and that compromises production level.

251
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: But I wonder, I don't know this. I wonder if

252
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: it's given the Ravens some pause to say, let's see

253
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 1: what happens. We want you to be here, but before

254
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 1: we back up the brinks truck, let's see how the

255
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 1: first half of the year plays out. And then I

256
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 1: think if he gets back to that MVP type form

257
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: and can stay healthy, you know, they probably do right

258
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: by him and pay him. But Baltimore doesn't need Jerk

259
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: much of anything, and I would argue it's served them

260
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 1: pretty well over the years, all things considered. I don't

261
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: know that you can say the same thing for a

262
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: Cardinals team. If you remember last year, in the offseason

263
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: signed JJ Watt to sixteen and a half million dollars

264
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: a year with a long injury history, and what happened.

265
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: You think he played like five games last year? Yeah?

266
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: I think it was five. And okay, history repeats itself.

267
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 1: I mean you can look back in NFL history, and

268
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: you can look at all the quarterbacks, even recent history,

269
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: quarterbacks players who are paid big, big money, and it

270
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 1: didn't turn out right. And if you're going to pay

271
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 1: a quarterback to a long term deal and pay him

272
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: big money based on what the quarterback market looks like

273
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: right now, you better be sure that is that this

274
00:14:58,240 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: is the guy you want to keep on your roster

275
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: and pay this much money too. Yeah. And you know,

276
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that Murray hasn't put up good production

277
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 1: and good numbers. And they got to the playoffs last year.

278
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: That's all fine and good. I just don't like some

279
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 1: of the things that you hear about Murray as a leader. Yeah.

280
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 1: There have been people saying, yeah, kind of a me guy,

281
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: not the best leader, it's never his fault when things

282
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: go wrong, and that, man, I don't like the sounds

283
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: of that. That doesn't mean he can't be a good

284
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: quarterback in the league, but is he going to take

285
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: you all the way to the ultimate prize. I mean,

286
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: I suppose it could happen, but man, it's tough to

287
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: convince me that it will when that's his makeup. If

288
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: in fact what we hear is accurate, so that would

289
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: give me pause as an organization. Now, look, they hitched

290
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: their wagon to him from the beginning. As soon as

291
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: they hired Cliff Kingsbury and then drafted Murray, who played

292
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: for him in college. I was like, Okay, here's the commitment.

293
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: But now they've locked it in long term. So where

294
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: it goes from here will be very interesting to see

295
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: if he can lift them to greater heights. In granted,

296
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 1: Maddie an NFC that isn't exactly stacked with quarterbacks. Russell

297
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: Wilson left that conference. He's in the AFC now in

298
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: his division, he's got Matthew Stafford. Okay, you've got competition there,

299
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 1: but Russell Wilson's out of their division. And if you

300
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: go across the NFC, outside of Aaron Rodgers and Dak Prescott,

301
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: there aren't on a whole lot of NFC quarterbacks to

302
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: write home about the way you can in the AFC,

303
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: which is stacked. They lost Matt Ryan too. Who's in

304
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: the AFC. Now, yeah, if you look at the NFC

305
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 1: even then the NFC West, I mean, okay, yeah, the Rams,

306
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,359
Speaker 1: but you've got the forty nine ers and the Seahawks.

307
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: Jimmy g has news today too, So who knows what

308
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: that team is going to look like at the quarterback position.

309
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: And yeah, Kyler Murray is a name in the NFC

310
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: from the quarterback position. There's a boatload of them in

311
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: the AFC. Can't say that about the NFC. So it'll

312
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,159
Speaker 1: be interesting to see how things unfold for him, to

313
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:15,399
Speaker 1: see if the persona around him about what he's like

314
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: in the locker room, the type of player he is,

315
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: if that changes at all too. Because if you're going

316
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 1: to enter into a deal like that, I mean, you're

317
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 1: the guy now on that team and it's still act

318
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: like it and still act like it, and if you

319
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: haven't been, it's time to step up and take on

320
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 1: that role and take on that leadership roll or the

321
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 1: captain role, whatever you want to call it. He's the

322
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 1: guy and he needs to he needs to act like it.

323
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:43,919
Speaker 1: So we'll see. He's a good quarterback. Yeah, you mentioned

324
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo. He has been given permission by the forty

325
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 1: nine ers to seek a trade. This just after it

326
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: was announced yesterday that he has been cleared to practice

327
00:17:55,720 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: and throw. And you know, there was an acasional report

328
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: here and there through the course of the offseason that, oh,

329
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: they may hold on to him and he may be

330
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 1: an expensive backup twenty seven million a year. You're not

331
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 1: paying that for a backup quarterback. I don't care what

332
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:14,640
Speaker 1: team it is. So and the reason why is the

333
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: way Garoppolo's contract is structured. Entering the last year of

334
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: his deal, it's almost all base salary. So if San

335
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,360
Speaker 1: Francisco trades him, their cap hit his minimal, and their

336
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: cap savings is like almost twenty five million dollars by

337
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: moving him off the roster. It's a no brainer. And

338
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised, Maddie if, if, and when they

339
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 1: trade Garoppolo within the next two days, they have Deebo

340
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 1: Samuel signed to a long term extension because of that

341
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: money that they're going to be flush with in terms

342
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 1: of cap space, because Deebo Samuel still hasn't reached a

343
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 1: new deal with them, and I mean, we know the

344
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: whole trade request and everything with him. They clearly don't

345
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: want to trade him, but I wonder if Garoppolo moving

346
00:18:56,040 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 1: off the roster will allow them to then pay Bo

347
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 1: Samuel big time money at the receiver position. Seattle and

348
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: Houston have been the most heavily rumored potential trade partners

349
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 1: for Garoppolo's services. All all I keep hearing out of

350
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: Houston is that the Texans genuinely like Davis Mills as

351
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 1: their starter. Do you make a move for Garoppolo? I

352
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 1: think the reason Houston is getting connected to Garoppolo is

353
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: because Nick Nick Kissario, their GM was with him in

354
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: New England, So maybe that's the tie. I don't know.

355
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: Twenty four point two million dollars is a lot to

356
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 1: take on to the team that that would accept that trade. Yes,

357
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 1: that's now conceivably, you know, because it is base salary,

358
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: that you could just cut him and you're off the

359
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:57,640
Speaker 1: hook because the contract goes away. But yeah, I think

360
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna land somewhere. You would think Seattle would at

361
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: least entertain it. I mean, you know Smith and Drew Blocks. Yeah,

362
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 1: you'd like to think you can do better than that.

363
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,640
Speaker 1: Not that Garoppolo is a tremendous upgrade, but I think

364
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: he is an upgrade or put somebody in the room

365
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: to help, not to mention he knows that division, Yo,

366
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 1: you know the division to help to create some competition

367
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: at the quarterback position, whatever you want to do a

368
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: having an older body, a bigger veteran than those two.

369
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 1: I mean, Gino's been around, but so we'll have to

370
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: see where it goes and who pulls the trigger on

371
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:38,159
Speaker 1: a deal. More quarterback news. Do the Cleveland Browns know

372
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 1: something we do not? Reports say the Browns are working

373
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 1: out quarterbacks Josh Rosen and aj McCarron. They currently have

374
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson, Jacoby Brissette, and Josh Dobbs on their roster,

375
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: but with the likelihood of Watson serving a suspension, it

376
00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: appears they want at least a third quarterback in training camp.

377
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: And I do have to check and see Maddie. If

378
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: a suspension is levied against Watson during training camp. I

379
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: can't remember if he's going to be allowed to participate

380
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 1: in camp or not, or if it only applies to games.

381
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: I think it. I have to double check that because

382
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: the new CBA maybe the language is different, but the

383
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: way it used to be, you'd only miss the games.

384
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: You can still practice, and I would assume if he

385
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: appeals the suspension that would free him up to practice

386
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 1: as well. But it's clear the Browns are trying to

387
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 1: prepare for what they're anticipating, which is probably a lengthy

388
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: suspension of some sort for Watson, and then they need

389
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: a third arm in there at least for training camp

390
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 1: to chuck the ball around. But how crazy is it?

391
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 1: They threw Baker Mayfield overboard the number one pick in

392
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: the twenty eighteen draft. Now they're working out the number

393
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 1: ten pick in the twenty eighteen draft. Josh Rosen and

394
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: AJ McCarron, who was with the Bills for a short

395
00:21:54,840 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: period of time here, is working out as well. So yeah,

396
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,919
Speaker 1: enough quarterbacks, I don't know. We know Jacoby Brissaid, we

397
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 1: know the name AJ McCarron, we know the name Josh Rosen.

398
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,880
Speaker 1: I want to give my two cents on Josh Dobbs

399
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: because he was a quarterback at Tennessee when I worked there. Um,

400
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 1: a great leader. He was a Josh Allen type of

401
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: leader for the team when we were at Tennessee. When

402
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,679
Speaker 1: I was at Tennessee working there, Um, they won some

403
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 1: big games when he was their quarterback. He is your

404
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,679
Speaker 1: your dual threat, your college term if you want to

405
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: call him. He can throw the ball, he can run

406
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: the rock. Um. He was a very athletic, versatile quarterback

407
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 1: at the University of Tennessee. I hope he gets a

408
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: chance in the NFL. I I really hope he does

409
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 1: because I think he could be a good number two option.

410
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: I think he can win a team some games. I

411
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 1: think he is capable, UM competitive, A really really great guy.

412
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 1: I loved working with him. Um he's the leader that

413
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: you would want out of a quarterback. He hasn't gotten

414
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,919
Speaker 1: his time yet. He's been in the league now for

415
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: I want to say five or six years. Maybe this

416
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 1: is going to be a sixth season. I can't remember

417
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: off the top of my head, but I would love

418
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,919
Speaker 1: him to get an opportunity or a chance. So he

419
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 1: is the name to watch. I know he's not a

420
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 1: big name by any means, or really a name in

421
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 1: the NFL right now, but great guy. Yeah. I would

422
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,879
Speaker 1: say his skill set kind of runs similar to that

423
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: if Deshaun Watson, So it would make sense why the

424
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 1: Browns would want him there. You might not have to

425
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,439
Speaker 1: change too much of your offense, but he is the

426
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: third stringer behind Brissette, who the Browns have already set.

427
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 1: If Watson is out of the equation due to suspension,

428
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 1: that Brissette will be prepared in training camp to be

429
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: the starter come September. So we'll just have to wait

430
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,439
Speaker 1: for the suspension to come down before we know what

431
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: exactly will take place. Former Bill's wide receiver John Brown

432
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 1: having a workout with the Green Bay Packers. Maddie Brown

433
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 1: started last offseason with Las Vegas, couldn't make their final roster,

434
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 1: then bounced around a little bit. He went to the

435
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,719
Speaker 1: Broncos on their practice squad, the Jags, and then the Bucks,

436
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 1: but couldn't stick anywhere. Packers receiving room we know is

437
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,919
Speaker 1: a bit thinner, but the general consensus is Smoke is

438
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 1: still a long shot to make their roster if he

439
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 1: signs in Green Bay, but it's an opportunity, so it

440
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 1: looks like he's gonna take it. He can help out,

441
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: he can help out on a team. He can be

442
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: a yeah, it's rotational type of guy. He was a

443
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: huge part of the Bill's offense. It's like you were

444
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,719
Speaker 1: probably gonna say strange to think about how important he

445
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 1: was the Bills offense a few seasons ago, and how

446
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 1: that can change for any player, not just John Brown,

447
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 1: for any you know, wide receiver, running back, skill player.

448
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: I was gonna say what was strange is the drop

449
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 1: off in his play and then the interest in him

450
00:24:55,200 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: as a commodity in the league. I don't know. I mean,

451
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: I've talked to Steve about this several times, and the

452
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:13,199
Speaker 1: small margins in a player's abilities. If sometimes the slightest

453
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: deterioration in a player's skill level is enough to get

454
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: him clipped off a roster, and then it's very hard

455
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 1: to get back on another one. And unfortunately John Brown

456
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: is experiencing that over the past year plus. I mean,

457
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 1: knowing John Brown like we do, I don't think it

458
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: eats him up inside. He's a very he's got a

459
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: very worldly view. I think of things where this isn't

460
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 1: consuming him, not being able to get back on an

461
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: NFL roster. I think he's kind of like, if it works, great,

462
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 1: if it doesn't. You know, he's had a pretty productive career,

463
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 1: He's made his money, but be kind of cool still

464
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 1: to see him back in the NFL in some capacity.

465
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: New tight end in Tampa Bay Bucks have signed veteran

466
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,159
Speaker 1: free agent Kyle Rudolph to a one year deal. So

467
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 1: it appears even Tampa has resigned itself to the fact

468
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: that Gronk is not coming out of retirement, at least

469
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: for an hour. Yeah, at least. Did you see what

470
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 1: his girlfriend was saying. No, she's not convinced that he's

471
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: completely That's hilarious. She's like, I think him and tom

472
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: are just toying with people. I mean, and you know what,

473
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 1: I'm getting sick of that this just in Who would

474
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 1: be shocked if in the middle of the season, near

475
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,439
Speaker 1: the end of the season, near the playoffs, you know

476
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: it's coming, right, if Gronk says, you know what, you

477
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 1: know what, Tommy, let's let's let's do this thing again,

478
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: I would not be shocked. Make me throw up. College

479
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: football news back up the brain struck for Kirby Smarts seriously.

480
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: ESPN's Chris Lowe reporting that Georgia football coach Kirby Smart

481
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 1: has agreed to a new ten year contract extension worth

482
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: one hundred, twelve and a half million dollars, making him

483
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: one of the highest paid coaches in college football. Eleven

484
00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 1: and a quarter per income. Money is getting stupid, Hey,

485
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: when and they get paid more than a lot of

486
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,159
Speaker 1: NFL coaches. And the reason why, I at least I

487
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:12,119
Speaker 1: think they have to. They have to recruit year round.

488
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 1: It's a heavier lift I think for a college coach.

489
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: Plus the transfer rules are so much looser now. It's like, hey,

490
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 1: we got this guy always leaving, what now I gotta

491
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,159
Speaker 1: fill that again. It's like a year round job. I

492
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,920
Speaker 1: would never want to be a college football coach. Their schedule,

493
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: working in college athletics for eight years, the way to

494
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: get including college, they don't stop. Your season ends and

495
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: you go straight to recruiting and you are there every

496
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: single weekend, whether you're on the road or whether you're

497
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: hosting players. It's a it's a year round job. You

498
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,360
Speaker 1: don't get you get maybe a week off. You don't

499
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: get the five weeks off that our coaches do in

500
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: between OTAs and training camp starting up or mandatory mini

501
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: camp and training camp beginning. So that's why the money

502
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 1: is there. I mean Kirby Smart, I mean good for

503
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: him of football team they've done since he's been a

504
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: part of that program and helped turn it around, they've

505
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 1: done some special things. Yeah, and their position to be

506
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 1: a perennial contender. I mean he just continues to bring

507
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 1: in like top three recruiting classes. He just landed another

508
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,880
Speaker 1: defensive tackle who they're calling like the next big thing.

509
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: Much like the I already forgot the kid's name. Who

510
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 1: was the kid's name? The Philly drafted the big three

511
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 1: hundred fifty pound Davis Jordan Davis. Thank you. Um, they're

512
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 1: already calling him the next Jordan Davis. I mean that's

513
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 1: coming in line. They got another kid that's huge. Yeah,

514
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: Jalen Carter is going to be a top ten pick

515
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 1: this year at defensive tackle for them. So they just

516
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,239
Speaker 1: keep rolling them through and where do they find all

517
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: these It's unbelievable. They just find all these guys and

518
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: just keep stacking their roster. It's absolutely insane. All right,

519
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 1: Twitter poll for you today. We heard some of you

520
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: on Twitter saying, hey, bring a pole back. We've done

521
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 1: it for you. And it pertains to the Bills offense.

522
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: As we are asking you today, which new addition to

523
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 1: the Bills offense will pay off the most in twenty

524
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: twenty two and why? And right now, James Cook is

525
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 1: running away with this thing, and he's got two thirds

526
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 1: of the vote. Compared to OJ Howard and Jamison Crowder

527
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 1: and other which we always like to throw in there

528
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: for you in case you had another idea in mind.

529
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 1: Other could be somebody like Duke Johnson, a coach or oh,

530
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 1: I didn't even think of that. I didn't even think

531
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 1: of that. You went coaching. Look at you, fresh off vacation.

532
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 1: Your mind's already free and open and clear. Look at you. Yeah, okay,

533
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: I'll entertain that. Sure, you can throw a coach in

534
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 1: there if you want it to. So which addition to

535
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 1: the Bills offense this year new addition will pay off

536
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 1: the most? And why? You have your choices? OJ Howard,

537
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 1: James Cook, Jamison Crowder or someone else, and Maddie and

00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: I will share with you where we come down on this,

Speaker 1: but we will take a break here. Open lines for

Speaker 1: get on board and let us know which new addition

543
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: you think is going to pay off the most and why.

544
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: Maddie and I will tell you ours when we return here.

545
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: On One Bill's Live, presented by collat to Health, It's

546
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill's Radio All right, Welcome back One Bill's Lives

547
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 1: the Show, Chris Brown, Mandy Glad with you here on

548
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: a Thursday. We already gave you the topic at hand

549
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 1: on the Twitter poll, which addition new addition to the

550
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 1: Bill's offense will pay off the most and why? In

551
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two choices are Oj Howard, James Cook, Jamison

552
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 1: Crowder or someone else? Where? Do you come down on

553
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: this one, Maddie? Do you have a you have a

554
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: preference here? Well, since I said coach and the other,

555
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 1: I'll go the coach route. I'll say Ken Dorsey. I

556
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: think the addition to Buffalo's offense with him, I think

557
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: will pay off the most because I'm excited to see

558
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 1: these new folds into the offense, whatever they may be,

559
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: and then what was successful from the previous seasons under

560
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 1: day ball carry over. I think again, we've talked about

561
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 1: it so much already, but I think he was the

562
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: perfect hire for that. I'm glad he was in the

563
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: fold and around. I'm glad that Josh and other players

564
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: on offense liked him enough and like working with him

565
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 1: enough to suggest and to recommend that he should be

566
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: in a role like the offensive coordinator role. You know

567
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 1: his track record at Miami, the games he won, how

568
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: people talk about how smart he is, how really his

569
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: smarts is what won him football games. I think Brandon

570
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 1: Beans sometimes makes fun of him for his athleticism and

571
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 1: says it all it was all his brain, that kind

572
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: of all those wins are mostly his brains. So I'm

573
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: really excited to see what that looks like on paper,

574
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: what that looks like in a game, how the offense changes,

575
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: and I hope it's all positive things. And I think

576
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: it really can be positive things because of the type

577
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: of person he is, because of what he's done and

578
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 1: how he's helped Josh progress. Josh has been around Ken

579
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: Dorsey for a few years now and we've seen Josh grow,

580
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: and I think Ken Dorsey is a reason for Josh's growth.

581
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: So I'm hoping that Ken Dorsey, his addition to the

582
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 1: offense and the OC role, is going to pay off

583
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: the most. Okay, that is a unique way of looking

584
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: at this one after three players were suggested, but it

585
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: falls under the category of other unquestionably, So okay, good

586
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 1: on you for going a unique direction with that. I

587
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 1: am voting Jamison Crowder. Look, I'm just as excited as

588
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: the next person about James Cook, and I do believe

589
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 1: he will diversify the offense, But in terms of paying

590
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 1: off the most, for me, it's Jamison Crowder and the

591
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 1: reason why primarily is because I believe he can be

592
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 1: an even better slot option than Cole Beasley was here.

593
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 1: I think he's a more diverse receiving talent than Beasley.

594
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: Number one, number two, He's younger coming in the door

595
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: than Beasley was three years ago. And maybe most important,

596
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: the reason I think he's going to be the biggest

597
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 1: payoff is because I think he's going to be on

598
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: the field a lot more than James Cook will be.

599
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 1: James Cook is still going to be in what is

600
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 1: largely expected to be a committee backfield. He also is

601
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,479
Speaker 1: a rookie. Now that doesn't mean that he won't get

602
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 1: on the field, but what it does mean, at least

603
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: under Sean McDermott, is you got to earn your time

604
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: on it, and that may come sooner rather than later.

605
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 1: For Cook, who is a great talent that I think

606
00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:01,959
Speaker 1: we're all excited about, Jamison Crowder is a proven producer.

607
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 1: I think he's had only one season in his career

608
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: where he's had less than fifty catches, and I believe

609
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 1: there were some injuries that were chiefly responsible for that.

610
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: So for my money and for the time I anticipate

611
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: he's going to be on the field snap count wise,

612
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,879
Speaker 1: Jamison Crowder is the answer for me here in terms

613
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: of paying off the most. I think some of these

614
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: other editions could pay off. I just don't know if

615
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: they're going to pay off to the degree that I

616
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 1: expect Crowder to pay off on slot role is an

617
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 1: important role on the offense for the Buffalo Bills. And

618
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 1: when you think about the Bills going against Crowder and

619
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: the Jets in years past, the defense had to account

620
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: for jameson Crowder. That was one of the jets best

621
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: targets that they had on offense for several seasons when

622
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,680
Speaker 1: the Bills played against him and he was on that team.

623
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,840
Speaker 1: So I think he fits in great on this offense.

624
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see what he can offer. I'm excited

625
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 1: to see if he can do more than Cole Beasley could.

626
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 1: I do think his skill set is there. I buy

627
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 1: I buy that answer all day because he will be

628
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 1: on the field more than James Cook and oj Howard.

629
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 1: He just he will based on how the Bills play

630
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: their offense. Yeah, I mean, could there be different personnel

631
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 1: groupings if oj Howard emerges and maybe they want to

632
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:19,720
Speaker 1: go more two tight ends, and does that take Jamison

633
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 1: Crowder off the field? Yeah, it could, I think. I

634
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 1: think there are different ways that this could certainly go

635
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 1: week to week. But I think most of us, due

636
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: to the proven nature of Jamison Crowder's game, anticipate that

637
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 1: he's going to be a full time starter in every

638
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 1: sense of the word in terms of lining up and

639
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 1: snap count. So to me, that's why he makes sense

640
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 1: as far as this question is concerned. But let's go

641
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 1: to the tweet sheet to see what you guys think

642
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 1: about this. Eight oh three five fifty one eight eight

643
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 1: five fifty two, five fifty the number to get on

644
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 1: board if you want to chime in there, Which new

645
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 1: addition to the Bills offense will pay off the most

646
00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: and why? Tweet sheet brought to you by Corrigan Moving System,

647
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,400
Speaker 1: the official equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills, and

648
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 1: JT leads us off and says, I'm going with Roger Saffold.

649
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 1: He's mammoth and definitely solidifies the left side of the line.

650
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 1: Which is Josh's blindside. We already got the snowman at

651
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,800
Speaker 1: left tackle. If Spencer Brown takes another step forward this season,

652
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,720
Speaker 1: the old line is going to be nasty. Second choice

653
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 1: is Cook nine eight twenty two, eight twenty pm. Wait,

654
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: people already have the countdown clock on. I think it

655
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 1: was fifty days away, like a day or two ye yesterday,

656
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: I think it was fifty days away. People are the

657
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 1: people got chicken skin already. They can't handle it. They're

658
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:40,360
Speaker 1: just losing their minds that it's counting down and getting closer.

659
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:47,760
Speaker 1: That's an interesting choice. Roger Saffold. I like the signing

660
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 1: of Roger Saffold number one because I believe he is

661
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 1: and has always been a very mobile guard. And the

662
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 1: past couple of years has been very difficult for the

663
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 1: Bills to execute their screen game with their guards because

664
00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:08,799
Speaker 1: they weren't highly mobile. They were more of a road

665
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:12,680
Speaker 1: Greater type player, and getting out and pulling was a

666
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:16,399
Speaker 1: difficult thing for them to execute. And what you'd see

667
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,760
Speaker 1: more often than not as Dion Dawkins and Mitch Morris

668
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 1: pulling on screens instead of the guards, and I just

669
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 1: never felt they reached critical mass with the execution of

670
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,800
Speaker 1: their screen game, and I wonder now with Saffold and Bates,

671
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 1: if that part of the offense can take another step forward.

672
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: And if it can, yeah, Saffold could be a factor

673
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 1: in this. But guards don't get a lot of love, right. Heck,

674
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: we didn't even put him on the poles in the

675
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,839
Speaker 1: other category, but JT decided to show him a little love.

676
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm interested to see what he can do.

677
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 1: We had him in studio here back in the spring,

678
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 1: shortly after he signed, and you know, you shake the

679
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:57,279
Speaker 1: guy's hand, your hand disappears big man mobile player. Though

680
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: he's known as an athlete, so I'm very curious to

681
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 1: see how he is utilized and if he is a

682
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:09,280
Speaker 1: principal component of the screen game. Aaron Kromer, the offensive

683
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:14,800
Speaker 1: line coach, had Saffold with the Rams in LA before

684
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 1: he went to the Titans, so he is familiar with

685
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 1: Aaron Kromer's blocking schemes and all of that stuff. So

686
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 1: you know who'll be quick on the uptake with that.

687
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,000
Speaker 1: So I really expect him, even though he's a new

688
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:25,919
Speaker 1: face in a new place, to really hit the ground

689
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 1: running here. I like the choice for Roger Staffold, and

690
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 1: also you think about his relationship with Aaron Kromer, He's

691
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 1: going to be able to help a lot of the

692
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,480
Speaker 1: other offensive hymen who are also going to be picking

693
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: up these new blocking schemes. That should be interesting to

694
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: see how this offensive line looks this season, what changes,

695
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: how they improve, how things change, how it all shakes out,

696
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 1: really for the five, because we've got some guys in

697
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: the rotation. I think it'll be interesting to see who

698
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 1: and they always say they will rotate, so it'll be

699
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 1: interesting to see who those starting five are for that

700
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 1: first game. But you've got to have a mobile offensive

701
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 1: line for the offense that the Bills run. Yeah, and

702
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:10,799
Speaker 1: I think because of that athletic ability, it opens up

703
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:15,320
Speaker 1: the playbook more for Ken Dorsey. And obviously he'll be

704
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 1: working with Cromer and the other offensive assistants. And we

705
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 1: know Joe Brady has been an offensive coordinator, Aaron Cromer

706
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 1: has been an offensive coordinator, So there are a lot

707
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,279
Speaker 1: of brains from which Ken Dorsey's going to be able

708
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,239
Speaker 1: to pick. Even senior offensive assistant Mike Schula has been

709
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator, and Rob Boris, the tight ends coach,

710
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 1: was an offensive coordinator with the Rams, so a lot

711
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,800
Speaker 1: of minds to pick for a first year coordinator, and

712
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,120
Speaker 1: Saffold's athletic ability may in fact help open up the

713
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 1: playbook even more than it had been in previous seasons.

714
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 1: Steve on the tweet sheet also goes with other look

715
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 1: at you, guys, you kind of leading the charge here,

716
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 1: Maddy with the other category, and our tweeters are following.

717
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 1: He says. The addition that will pay off the most

718
00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:02,800
Speaker 1: is is Aaron Cromer. Right. I do not expect to

719
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,280
Speaker 1: run the ball more, but I totally believe the Bills

720
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: will run it more efficiently. And the screen game could

721
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: also Proster under his prosper under his tutelage, and weapons

722
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 1: like Cook can be utilized. Yeah, if you're doing the

723
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 1: screen game with James Cook, yum, yum, gimme some. I

724
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 1: mean that, oh, him in the open field with a

725
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,359
Speaker 1: convoy of blockers in front of him. You can make

726
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,919
Speaker 1: a lot happen with that talent on the field, for sure.

727
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 1: Look at that, Maddie, he suggested, coaches, and boom, there

728
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: they are at. Yeah, and we've heard offensive linemen talk

729
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 1: about what they think about Aaron Kromer so far, and

730
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:46,960
Speaker 1: they've had great reviews about what they've seen been a

731
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 1: part of an OTAs and mandatory mini camps. So I

732
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: think they liked their new coach. Not to say that

733
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,759
Speaker 1: they didn't like Bobby Johnson. I think they really loved

734
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 1: Bobby Johnson and what he could offer. But I think

735
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 1: they're excited in what they have an Aaron Kromer, his

736
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,800
Speaker 1: ties to the Bills, his ties to some current players

737
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 1: on the roster. We'll see what the online looks like. Yeah,

738
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 1: it's an important part of the game. This is Aaron

739
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 1: Kromer's second stint with the Bills. He was here, you know,

740
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,479
Speaker 1: a few years ago. And I've talked to Eric Woods

741
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:19,320
Speaker 1: several times about Chromer, who coached him when he was

742
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:21,839
Speaker 1: still in a Bill's uniform, and he can't say enough

743
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,279
Speaker 1: good things about him. He's very excited about Kromer coming

744
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 1: back to kind of run the protections and the schemes

745
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: within the scope of the offense. So yeah, I mean

746
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: I have high expectations knowing Kromer is the team's offensive

747
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 1: line coach. Once again, we have to take a break here.

748
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 1: When we come back, more of your thoughts on the

749
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,760
Speaker 1: tweet sheet and then second hour of the show Maddie

750
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 1: and I will have a special training camp preview to

751
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 1: pass along to you concerning the Bills tight end position.

752
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,080
Speaker 1: More on that when we return here on one Bill's

753
00:41:52,120 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 1: Live presented by Klota Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio, it's summer,

754
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,800
Speaker 1: and Bill's head coach, Sean McDermott wants us all thinking

755
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:15,000
Speaker 1: about sun defense. Coach is passionate about skin cancer profession

756
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:17,879
Speaker 1: as it runs in his family, and he takes sun

757
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:22,520
Speaker 1: protection very seriously. Most importantly, of course, is wearing sunscreen.

758
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 1: Right now, you can stop by your local Wegmans for

759
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 1: all of your sun protection needs. Wegman's will donate one

760
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 1: dollar for every Wegman's sunscreen product sold at their stores

761
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:37,879
Speaker 1: through August thirty first in Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse. It's

762
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 1: a great way to protect your family and help fight

763
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 1: against skin cancer and thank sun defense like Bill's head

764
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:48,879
Speaker 1: coach Sean McDermott, and if you'll want to learn more

765
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: about that, you'll be able to check out some of

766
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,799
Speaker 1: the things that they'll be doing a training camp come

767
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 1: next week. I know Wegman's is going to have a

768
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:59,160
Speaker 1: tent out there and they're going to have some sunscreen

769
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 1: products there. For people to sample in such among other giveaways,

770
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 1: and they're just trying to educate everybody because there's in

771
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: a whole lot of shade out there a training camp either,

772
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: so you got to kind of lather up. It's so

773
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 1: hot out of training camp. I'm preparing myself for it.

774
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,800
Speaker 1: But yeah, there's not a lot of shade. So the

775
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,920
Speaker 1: funny thing is like there's certain spot, like you know

776
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:21,920
Speaker 1: when you missed a spot with your sunscreen, because the

777
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 1: thing's beat red like the next day. And a place

778
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,040
Speaker 1: where a lot of people forget to apply sunscreen is

779
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 1: their ears. Ears. Now you don't have to worry so

780
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:33,319
Speaker 1: much because you can put your hair down and kind

781
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,360
Speaker 1: of cover up your ears. But people like me like

782
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:38,399
Speaker 1: you better put it on or you know you're gonna

783
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 1: look like Rudolph the Red eared reindeer. And I mean

784
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 1: it just got to put sunscreen on your ears, man,

785
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,440
Speaker 1: it's just it's all cartlet you gotta protect it. And

786
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 1: Coach mcdermot's big on that. You'll see him out there.

787
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,360
Speaker 1: You'll have the wide brimmed hat. He wears long sleeves

788
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 1: a lot even if it's hot, and pants and those

789
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 1: pants and shirts that he wears they actually have sp

790
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 1: woven into them. Yeah, smart guy fabric. So so yeah,

791
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 1: do right by your skin, take care of it, sunscreen protection.

792
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 1: Wegmans and coach McDermott all over that wanted to get

793
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,439
Speaker 1: back to the tweet Chee comments in terms of which

794
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 1: addition to the Bill's offense will pay off the most

795
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,799
Speaker 1: of this year and why it had some interesting responses

796
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:26,359
Speaker 1: so far. But Scott says College Football National Championship Game.

797
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 1: Take a look at that. For me, it's James cook

798
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:33,960
Speaker 1: excellent change of pace dimension. We've talked about it a lot,

799
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 1: even through the spring, Mattie, when you've even been on

800
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 1: the show. The opportunity for him to diversify this offense

801
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:46,279
Speaker 1: is obvious. Obviously, Yes, he has to prove himself and

802
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 1: do it, but there is a dimension with respect to

803
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:52,800
Speaker 1: his skill set that he can bring to that position

804
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 1: that really anybody with the exception of Duke Johnson does

805
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 1: not have on this roster. You add that to this

806
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 1: offense and pair it with what you already have is

807
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,720
Speaker 1: the reason why a lot of us think this offense

808
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 1: can take its next step in this season, which I

809
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,560
Speaker 1: say all the time is crazy to think about because

810
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,320
Speaker 1: of what the offense has done in the last two seasons,

811
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: how it's even improved this past season, and how we

812
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 1: think it can move forward this season. And to have

813
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:26,359
Speaker 1: a player like James Cook, who hopefully has a really

814
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 1: long NFL career, and also to think about how he

815
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 1: can grow within the NFL and to think he could

816
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,760
Speaker 1: be a Buffalo Bill for a long time. The types

817
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:38,800
Speaker 1: of players like James Cook, people want those in the

818
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,960
Speaker 1: NFL right now. You want a guy who can run

819
00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 1: and catch the ball and be really good at that

820
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,440
Speaker 1: to the point where defenses have to account for you,

821
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:49,920
Speaker 1: to the point where it throws off a defense, to

822
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,920
Speaker 1: the point where who do we put on him? Because

823
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:57,480
Speaker 1: he's really hard to defend and guard. I'm pumped to

824
00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 1: see what James Cook looks like in these this offense

825
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:03,120
Speaker 1: and if he can be a difference maker in year

826
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 1: one right And it's the polished route running skills that

827
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:10,960
Speaker 1: he has that are so rare for young players at

828
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 1: the running back position. You can get polished route runners

829
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:16,160
Speaker 1: at the receiver position coming out of college, but at

830
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:20,800
Speaker 1: the running back position they're not as plentiful. He has that,

831
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:26,240
Speaker 1: and that's why I'm led to believe that even Maddie.

832
00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:31,480
Speaker 1: Let's just say hypothetically, even if James Cook may not

833
00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:35,800
Speaker 1: be able to master all the blitz pick up responsibilities

834
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: lining up in the backfield, I still think Ken Dors's

835
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 1: gonna put him on the field. He's just gonna split

836
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: him out. Why don't worry about the protection. We're gonna

837
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 1: put you out here. Go win out there in the

838
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 1: passing game because he can do that because of the

839
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:51,920
Speaker 1: route running skills that I mentioned. So even if you

840
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:55,280
Speaker 1: know blitz pickup is not his forte in the early going,

841
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 1: you know, maybe he can't get consistent with the reads

842
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,359
Speaker 1: and where the pressure is coming from. I don't think

843
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:04,520
Speaker 1: that's going to rob him necessarily of snap counts because

844
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 1: they can line them up out wide, because they did

845
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:09,840
Speaker 1: that in Georgia and he one outside. And it's not

846
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 1: like he played against nobody at Georgia. He played against

847
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 1: some of the best teams in college football. He was

848
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 1: a part of the best team in college football this

849
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:21,360
Speaker 1: past year, played against really great defenses in the SEC

850
00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:25,399
Speaker 1: and beyond. So this is somebody who should walk into

851
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 1: the next level of the game, the NFL, and be

852
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,840
Speaker 1: able to have a roll. Yeah, we will get to

853
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: morerir comments on the tweet sheet. In just a little bit,

854
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:37,239
Speaker 1: we will step aside here. When we come back on

855
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,880
Speaker 1: the other side, Maddie and I will be bringing you

856
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:44,520
Speaker 1: one of our training Camp Countdown preview pieces on the

857
00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:49,800
Speaker 1: tight end position. How could that potentially offer double trouble

858
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 1: two opponents? We will explain when we return next Here

859
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:56,240
Speaker 1: on one Bills Live presented by Klota Health, it's Buffalo

860
00:47:56,320 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 1: Bill's Radio at a Steve Tastor who has put all

861
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:18,239
Speaker 1: the fields kind of unique. He was kind of a

862
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:23,760
Speaker 1: dual role players for you, Stave of Steve a blimp.

863
00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:31,719
Speaker 1: We're not even in the stratoere of normalcy. Welcome to

864
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 1: another edition of Camp Countdown, presented by Connors and Ferris.

865
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 1: I'm Chris Brown along with Maddy glab and our discussion

866
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:41,920
Speaker 1: heading into training camp here concerns the tight end position

867
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:44,640
Speaker 1: and whether Dawson knox In free agent signee O J.

868
00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:48,560
Speaker 1: Howard will be double trouble for Bill's opponents. Maddie, this

869
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:50,640
Speaker 1: seems like a simple question on the service, but it's

870
00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 1: got some layers to it, the first of which is

871
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:56,360
Speaker 1: the unknown as to what Ken Dorsey's plans for the

872
00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:00,279
Speaker 1: offense are this season and how these tight ends factor in. Yeah,

873
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 1: you would think tight ends are going to play an

874
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:05,960
Speaker 1: important role in the offense, just because of Dawson Knox's

875
00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:09,240
Speaker 1: season last year where he scored nine touchdowns and almost

876
00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 1: had fifty receptions for more than five hundred yards. I mean,

877
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 1: Knox was a big target for Alan, especially in the

878
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 1: end zone because of his size. But there's someone else

879
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,800
Speaker 1: in the mix now who also brings size to the

880
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:24,520
Speaker 1: tight end position, and that's Oj Howard. I'm really intrigued

881
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 1: to see how Dorsey uses both Howard and Knox separately

882
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:31,680
Speaker 1: and together. But just on surface level, you think that

883
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,240
Speaker 1: they have to play a part, right, And I wouldn't

884
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,840
Speaker 1: be surprised if Ken Dorsey is waiting on maybe a

885
00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 1: little bit more evidence from Howard himself in the training

886
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:42,279
Speaker 1: camp setting when the pans go on. I think he

887
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:44,239
Speaker 1: might have to do a little bit of convincing the

888
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 1: offensive staff that he can be a factor. How does

889
00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 1: he fit into certain play calls. Hey, we think this

890
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:51,000
Speaker 1: will work for Oj, but let's see it on the

891
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:54,440
Speaker 1: field in camp and maybe even in the preseason before

892
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 1: we put our stamp of approval of That brings us

893
00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:00,440
Speaker 1: to part two of our discussion, which is what can

894
00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 1: Oj Howard offer the Bills in the passing game. We

895
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:07,440
Speaker 1: know he's a giant target, but how diverse is his

896
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,440
Speaker 1: receiving game? Well, he stands tall at six six, so

897
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 1: number one, that's an obvious mismatch in a lot of ways.

898
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:15,640
Speaker 1: And when you look at his receiving game, you have

899
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:18,600
Speaker 1: to remember his college years. He was a college Football

900
00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:23,280
Speaker 1: National Championship MVP for in twenty fifteen. Four Those receiving

901
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:25,960
Speaker 1: skills which helped him be a top twenty pick in

902
00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:29,080
Speaker 1: the NFL draft, and in his first two NFL seasons,

903
00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:32,480
Speaker 1: he scored eleven touchdowns and had close to a thousand

904
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:36,200
Speaker 1: receiving yards. The last couple of seasons haven't been as exciting, though,

905
00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:40,080
Speaker 1: because of a couple of injuries. Injuries aside, though, Howard

906
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 1: has the skills as a receiver, and if he can

907
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:45,680
Speaker 1: stay healthy this season, fingers crossed he can, it should

908
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:48,320
Speaker 1: be fun to watch him. Right, and health is the

909
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 1: big thing here. I mean the torn achilles he suffered

910
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 1: in Week four of the twenty twenty season led to

911
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 1: a long rehabilitation. Even last August he said he didn't

912
00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,600
Speaker 1: feel himself yet. Now almost two years removed from that injury,

913
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:02,880
Speaker 1: has the explosiveness returned. I think that's what everybody's going

914
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 1: to be looking for in the training camp setting. And

915
00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:08,800
Speaker 1: if it is back, we're really talking about a special

916
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:11,400
Speaker 1: weapon here. You know. If not, he might just be

917
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:15,920
Speaker 1: a physical red zone type of presence. So what if

918
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:19,600
Speaker 1: he proves to be athletically in training camp figures to

919
00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:22,799
Speaker 1: largely determine his role here. I mean, if he's got

920
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:26,000
Speaker 1: everything back that you pointed out that he had in college,

921
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:28,920
Speaker 1: they could really have something here in terms of a

922
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,279
Speaker 1: dynamic duel. Yeah. I think there's a role in this

923
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:34,040
Speaker 1: offense for Howard if he shows how he can be

924
00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:37,279
Speaker 1: available and put some tape together during training camp. Right,

925
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:40,759
Speaker 1: there's competitions all over the place in training camp. I

926
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:44,240
Speaker 1: don't know if tight end is necessarily competition knocks against Howard.

927
00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:47,920
Speaker 1: I think it's more can Howard put that tape together

928
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:51,799
Speaker 1: to prove that he deserves a role. And we've talked

929
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:55,440
Speaker 1: about it several times already. Imagine Howard and knocks together

930
00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:58,640
Speaker 1: in this offense with Dorsey's mind, with how he's going

931
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:03,320
Speaker 1: to play call twelve personnel thirteen personnel. I mean the

932
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:05,480
Speaker 1: things that you can do and the way you can

933
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:09,240
Speaker 1: twist things. The mismatches that you can have on this offense.

934
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:11,800
Speaker 1: If you're utilizing both of these, I think is scary

935
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,880
Speaker 1: for opposing defenses. So to have another big tight end

936
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:19,640
Speaker 1: who also doubles as a receiver, I think is big

937
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:23,840
Speaker 1: and could play big into different moments and against different opponents.

938
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:26,600
Speaker 1: So Ken Dorsey could have a ball with these two

939
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:30,719
Speaker 1: as a first time, first season offensive coordinator here. I mean,

940
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 1: if the Howard explosiveness is there, it gives Dorsey more

941
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:39,560
Speaker 1: opportunities to be unpredictable with how he calls this offense.

942
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:41,360
Speaker 1: And I think what you said is important. It's not

943
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:45,399
Speaker 1: necessarily Knox is one and Howard is two. It's kind

944
00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 1: of more of a one and one a thing. And

945
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,640
Speaker 1: I think everybody knows that Dawson Knox is kind of

946
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,560
Speaker 1: the entrenched starter. If there's only one tight end on

947
00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:56,440
Speaker 1: the field, it's going to be Knox. But what Howard

948
00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:59,919
Speaker 1: can show through the training camp in preseason setting could

949
00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:03,960
Speaker 1: largely determined how often we might see two tight ends

950
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:07,880
Speaker 1: on the field instead of one. So we look at

951
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:11,319
Speaker 1: Dawson Knox, we say he's number one. What does that mean?

952
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:14,000
Speaker 1: I guess for him going into this season, coming off

953
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,520
Speaker 1: a nine touchdown campaign last year, I think he needs

954
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:20,360
Speaker 1: to take that next step. We talk about taking the

955
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,400
Speaker 1: next step for a lot of these players on this offense,

956
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 1: but I think that's what the staff is charging Dawson

957
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 1: Knox with. I mean with what he did last season,

958
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 1: with what he's put on film, with the mismatch that

959
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:40,080
Speaker 1: he has been in previous seasons, with what he's continuing

960
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:43,440
Speaker 1: to do this offseason, working with that vision specialist that

961
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:45,920
Speaker 1: he has now a couple of years, and how it's

962
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,799
Speaker 1: really helped him. I think on the field we saw

963
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:52,239
Speaker 1: last season is that hey, it's time to show up

964
00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 1: again and do what you did last season. Now we'll

965
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 1: see what defenses have on Dawson Knox, because I would

966
00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:01,040
Speaker 1: expect it's going to be a little bit harder for

967
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:04,200
Speaker 1: him this season. But I think it's time for him

968
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:06,319
Speaker 1: to shine. But when you look at the offense as

969
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:09,680
Speaker 1: a whole, there's a lot of mouths to feed. There's

970
00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:12,520
Speaker 1: James Cook, there's Jameson Crowder who I think are definitely

971
00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:15,000
Speaker 1: going to get the ball this season. And of course

972
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:17,719
Speaker 1: there's a guy in Isaiah McKenzie who I think is

973
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:21,479
Speaker 1: ready for a bigger role on this offense. So we'll

974
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,440
Speaker 1: see how it all shakes out. But I do expect

975
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,920
Speaker 1: Dawson Knox to play to play an important role this

976
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,160
Speaker 1: season because he needs to. And if you look at it,

977
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:35,120
Speaker 1: if OJ Howard comes forward and steps to the forefront

978
00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:39,440
Speaker 1: with a full compliment of athletic ability again that explosiveness,

979
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:43,200
Speaker 1: if Dat returns, that means that Ken Dorsey has a

980
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 1: good problem. It's a good dilema to half because it's

981
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:47,880
Speaker 1: just another weapon along with all the ones that you

982
00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:51,320
Speaker 1: just listed Maddie that he can choose from, and some

983
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,759
Speaker 1: might be better options in a given week against a

984
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:55,839
Speaker 1: given opponent than others. So if he has a full

985
00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:58,440
Speaker 1: compliment in that, it allows him to stay ahead of

986
00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:03,160
Speaker 1: the curve and stay ahead of opposing defenses. Stay tuned

987
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 1: to Buffalo bills dot Com and to one Bills Live

988
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:09,239
Speaker 1: for all your training camp updates. For now, I'm Chris

989
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:12,880
Speaker 1: Brown from Maddie Lab. It'll be fun to see what O. J.

990
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:16,440
Speaker 1: Howard and Dawson Knox can do on this offense this season.

991
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:18,239
Speaker 1: But they're not the only tight ends that are a

992
00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:21,279
Speaker 1: part of this roster. We know the tight end group

993
00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:24,400
Speaker 1: as well as many other groups on this roster are

994
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:26,799
Speaker 1: going to be a part of some intense competition as

995
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:29,840
Speaker 1: we moved to Rochester for training camp. Competition is going

996
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 1: to heat up as cuts start to be made over

997
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 1: the next several weeks and months. But other tight ends

998
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,360
Speaker 1: on the roster who could earn a spot on the

999
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:42,600
Speaker 1: roster on the practice squad. We don't know what it's

1000
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:44,960
Speaker 1: going to shake out to look like or what it's

1001
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:48,080
Speaker 1: going to be like. But of course there's Tommy Sweeney

1002
00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:50,240
Speaker 1: who's been on this team for a couple of seasons.

1003
00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:56,120
Speaker 1: Quentin Morris, Jalen Widermeyer also another tight end on the roster.

1004
00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:59,359
Speaker 1: How you can play the numbers game two if you're

1005
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:02,279
Speaker 1: looking at how many are they going to take? What

1006
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:06,879
Speaker 1: positions could have more players a part of that position group.

1007
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:09,879
Speaker 1: Defensive line carried a lot of players this past season.

1008
00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:11,560
Speaker 1: I would assume they're going to do the same this

1009
00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:14,400
Speaker 1: year with how they rotate. So how does that affect

1010
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:18,600
Speaker 1: smaller positions like a tight end room. Yeah, and you

1011
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:21,880
Speaker 1: have the added factor of Reggie Hilliam, who's kind of

1012
00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:25,640
Speaker 1: a hybrid player fullback slash tight end, and I would

1013
00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:29,359
Speaker 1: anticipate he is on the roster just from a versatility

1014
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,120
Speaker 1: and position flex standpoint not to mention the fact that

1015
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:35,200
Speaker 1: he plays on special teams, so I think he factors

1016
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:39,120
Speaker 1: into that equation also. And you know, Morris was an

1017
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:44,040
Speaker 1: undrafted rookie who made the roster last year. Sweeney, as

1018
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 1: we know, has been here, came in with Dawson Knox.

1019
00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:50,120
Speaker 1: They were in the same draft class. And Sweeney, while

1020
00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:54,400
Speaker 1: maybe he doesn't excel at any one thing, he's good

1021
00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:58,279
Speaker 1: at just about everything and that has value in this league.

1022
00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:02,640
Speaker 1: You may not be a prominent player, but if you're

1023
00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:07,560
Speaker 1: capable of doing everything, well, maybe not at an elite level,

1024
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 1: but well you can play for a long time in

1025
00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:14,839
Speaker 1: this league. And you know, we'll see what that means

1026
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:19,880
Speaker 1: for Sweeney going forward. Widermeyer is an interesting prospect. Undrafted kid,

1027
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:24,880
Speaker 1: had some monster production early in his college career and

1028
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:27,200
Speaker 1: then it kind of tailed off a little bit, which

1029
00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:30,320
Speaker 1: I think is why he went wound up going undrafted.

1030
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:35,440
Speaker 1: But there is some talent there, some unquestionable pass catching talent.

1031
00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:41,439
Speaker 1: He's not fast. I think he ran like a five flat. Yeah,

1032
00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:44,400
Speaker 1: he's like six five and change and two hundred and

1033
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:49,080
Speaker 1: fifty something pounds sixty something pounds. He's definitely a big

1034
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:52,080
Speaker 1: red zone target, soft hands, you know, just watching him

1035
00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:55,520
Speaker 1: in the spring. Kids got soft hands, so he's worth

1036
00:57:55,560 --> 00:58:00,200
Speaker 1: a look. See how quickly he is in picking up

1037
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:02,360
Speaker 1: the scheme and executing at the snap of a finger

1038
00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:05,280
Speaker 1: and reading coverage and then executing the other elements of

1039
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,360
Speaker 1: the tight end position remains to be seen. It's an

1040
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:12,200
Speaker 1: interesting group after the top two, and I really think

1041
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,600
Speaker 1: it has the potential to go any which way based

1042
00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:18,600
Speaker 1: on who shines in camp in the preseason. It's not

1043
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:21,920
Speaker 1: going to be all three, that is for sure. How

1044
00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,200
Speaker 1: much room is there Do they just keep one of

1045
00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 1: those guys? Yeah, it may only be three true tight

1046
00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:32,040
Speaker 1: ends and Reggie Gilliam as the stand in fourth, and

1047
00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:33,920
Speaker 1: then maybe you put another one of these guys on

1048
00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:38,880
Speaker 1: the practice squad. That's probably the way it goes, especially

1049
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:43,960
Speaker 1: knowing that the expanded practice squad will rules appear here

1050
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:46,360
Speaker 1: to stay. It's going to be sixteen man squad. Again.

1051
00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:49,880
Speaker 1: You can protect four of those guys every week, but

1052
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:54,080
Speaker 1: with the expanded practice squad it affords you the numbers

1053
00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:57,680
Speaker 1: flexibility at some positions like tight end to keep some

1054
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,120
Speaker 1: guys stashed there and then call them up as necessary

1055
00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:03,520
Speaker 1: if perhaps there's an injury or something. So yeah, I

1056
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:08,439
Speaker 1: mean I like the group though. I mean, granted, there's

1057
00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:12,000
Speaker 1: guys there that are largely unproven, but I'm really interested

1058
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,600
Speaker 1: to see what they have to bring to the table

1059
00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:16,600
Speaker 1: in the training camp setting and then of course in

1060
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:19,240
Speaker 1: preseason where some of these guys like a Widermeyer Remorse

1061
00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:21,919
Speaker 1: are going to get a ton of snaps to really

1062
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:25,240
Speaker 1: kind of prove what they have to offer. So it'll

1063
00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 1: be an interesting group. I think a lot of eyes

1064
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 1: are going to be focused on OJ Howard naturally because

1065
00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:36,200
Speaker 1: former first round pick, you know, injury history has compromised

1066
00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 1: his production in the league. But I think people recognize

1067
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:43,080
Speaker 1: him as a talent physically, what does he still have left?

1068
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:46,360
Speaker 1: How much of that skill set exists? So I expect

1069
00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:48,080
Speaker 1: fans to be like, where's Oj Howard? You know, like

1070
00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:49,640
Speaker 1: that's going to be like the thing they're doing when

1071
00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:51,520
Speaker 1: they look at the tight end position because they know

1072
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:55,040
Speaker 1: who knocks is and what he can be for this offense. Now,

1073
00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:57,880
Speaker 1: is there anything else that the position has to offer?

1074
00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:01,240
Speaker 1: And people just going to gravitate to Howard automatically because

1075
01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:04,520
Speaker 1: of his draft cache among other things. So yeah, I'm

1076
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:08,200
Speaker 1: looking forward to it to see what the position has

1077
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:10,520
Speaker 1: to offer. Wanted to get to more of your thoughts

1078
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,560
Speaker 1: on the tweet sheet, though, as we are asking you

1079
01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:16,360
Speaker 1: speaking of Oj Howard, which new addition to the Bill's

1080
01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:20,840
Speaker 1: offense will pay off the most and why? And Jack

1081
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:25,360
Speaker 1: says he voted other Roger Saffold and Bates back will

1082
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:27,640
Speaker 1: stabilize the middle of the line, help move the pile

1083
01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 1: in the running game, and give Josh Allen time. Saffold

1084
01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:35,000
Speaker 1: also adds some no nonsense nastiness to the group that

1085
01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 1: they have missed. I gotta tell you, Maddie, I don't

1086
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 1: know if there's a fan base that respects offensive line

1087
01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:43,920
Speaker 1: play more than you. I can't tell you how many

1088
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:48,720
Speaker 1: polls we've had. The offensive line and its individual players

1089
01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,560
Speaker 1: get more respect from Bills fans and maybe any other

1090
01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:54,880
Speaker 1: fan base I've been around. Maybe you know, Pittsburgh's on

1091
01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 1: a par with that. They liked the big guys up

1092
01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:59,920
Speaker 1: front a lot, and they gravitate to them as well.

1093
01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,960
Speaker 1: But Bills fans man a lot of respect for the lineman.

1094
01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:05,880
Speaker 1: I think Bills fans also speak the language of football

1095
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:09,360
Speaker 1: two two, one, three oh one versus football one oh one.

1096
01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:12,480
Speaker 1: You know, next level fans, they know what they're talking about.

1097
01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:15,160
Speaker 1: They know it's really important on a team, and the

1098
01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:19,320
Speaker 1: offensive line definitely fits into that category. But we'll see

1099
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:22,080
Speaker 1: if Roger Saffold brings that nastiness to the group. I

1100
01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:24,480
Speaker 1: think he will, but I think there is some existing

1101
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:29,720
Speaker 1: nastiness on the line already. All I know is Dion

1102
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:32,040
Speaker 1: Dawkins the last month of the season last year was

1103
01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 1: absolutely reckoned people. And we've seen some clips off Spencer

1104
01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:41,919
Speaker 1: Brown between plays basically ridiculing other players lack of height,

1105
01:01:43,880 --> 01:01:45,840
Speaker 1: saying don't mess with me or a shorty or you

1106
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:49,400
Speaker 1: know I'm six eight and you're not. And he's got

1107
01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:52,040
Speaker 1: some zingers out there on the field, so he plays

1108
01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:55,160
Speaker 1: with an attitude. Also, I mean, yes, you lost a

1109
01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:58,080
Speaker 1: little bit of that grit with John Feliciano moving on,

1110
01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:00,240
Speaker 1: but he really wasn't in the lineup anyway this second

1111
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,440
Speaker 1: half of the season, So yeah, I mean, if Saffold

1112
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:06,440
Speaker 1: brings that all the better. He is no nonsense. How

1113
01:02:06,560 --> 01:02:08,160
Speaker 1: nasty he is, I don't know. I got to see

1114
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:10,920
Speaker 1: a little bit more of his game to make an

1115
01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:13,600
Speaker 1: assessment on that, but he is no nonsense. Just having

1116
01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:15,240
Speaker 1: him sit in here with us in studio once for

1117
01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:17,160
Speaker 1: about fifteen minutes, I was like Okay, this guy is

1118
01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:19,720
Speaker 1: all about ball and here we go, and I guess

1119
01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 1: you'd have to be if you're still playing at age

1120
01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:25,240
Speaker 1: three and four. So there it is. Bryce on the

1121
01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:29,720
Speaker 1: tweet sheet votes Crowder. Finally someone votes where I voted.

1122
01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:32,760
Speaker 1: All right, He's a quicker, cheaper, and younger version of

1123
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:36,480
Speaker 1: Beasley and will be a very reliable option in short

1124
01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:40,360
Speaker 1: yardage situation. So he's thinking of Crowder in those third

1125
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:43,120
Speaker 1: and two's, third and threes, quick hitter, get the first down,

1126
01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:45,160
Speaker 1: move the sticks, and off we go first and ten,

1127
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:49,680
Speaker 1: which are important situations and down and distances for any

1128
01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:52,320
Speaker 1: team in the NFL to convert on those and not

1129
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:57,120
Speaker 1: to make third and longer fourth and whatever? How many

1130
01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:59,520
Speaker 1: times did you and Steve talk about third and longer

1131
01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:03,200
Speaker 1: situation the last couple of seasons, and how the Bills

1132
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:06,600
Speaker 1: have gotten themselves into situations like that that haven't been

1133
01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:08,760
Speaker 1: the best, and how it's really important to convert on

1134
01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:13,520
Speaker 1: those shorty situations. Jamison Crowder could have a big role

1135
01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:16,760
Speaker 1: in doing so, right, And I still think there is

1136
01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:20,880
Speaker 1: an area of Crowder's game that is underrated, at least

1137
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:23,760
Speaker 1: right now buy Bills fans, and that is the run

1138
01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:26,360
Speaker 1: after the catch ability. I think he has superior run

1139
01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:31,080
Speaker 1: after catchability to that of Cole Beasley. And I know

1140
01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:33,520
Speaker 1: you know this statistic, Maddie, but I'll let our listening

1141
01:03:33,560 --> 01:03:36,640
Speaker 1: audience here at once more. The Bills last year finished

1142
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:40,040
Speaker 1: twentieth in the league in yards after catch. On offense,

1143
01:03:40,080 --> 01:03:42,040
Speaker 1: they were a top five offense in football, but they

1144
01:03:42,080 --> 01:03:44,920
Speaker 1: were twentieth in yards after the catch. And we heard

1145
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:48,040
Speaker 1: Josh in the spring address that very subject, saying one

1146
01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:50,360
Speaker 1: of the things he was working on was throwing receivers

1147
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:52,520
Speaker 1: open and giving them an opportunity to run with the

1148
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:56,640
Speaker 1: ball for extra yardage after the reception. Josh historically has

1149
01:03:56,680 --> 01:03:59,600
Speaker 1: been a put it on him type thrower, where he'll

1150
01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,680
Speaker 1: just hit guy between the numbers and not always give

1151
01:04:02,720 --> 01:04:05,320
Speaker 1: them an opportunity to turn and run with the football

1152
01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:08,120
Speaker 1: after the catch is made. He wants He has tried

1153
01:04:08,160 --> 01:04:11,320
Speaker 1: to work on that this offseason to present more of

1154
01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:15,240
Speaker 1: those kinds of opportunities, which would make drives a whole

1155
01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:17,480
Speaker 1: lot shorter. Quite frankly, if the guy's getting extra ten

1156
01:04:17,560 --> 01:04:22,440
Speaker 1: yards after every catch, yeah, that adding that into the

1157
01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:24,840
Speaker 1: fold of the offense being able to throw guys open.

1158
01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:28,680
Speaker 1: Josh John talked about it so many times throughout OTAs

1159
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:31,280
Speaker 1: and mandatory Mini camp. And I think we also got

1160
01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:33,160
Speaker 1: to see a little a little bit of that in

1161
01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:37,320
Speaker 1: OTAs as well, especially with a guy like Gabe Davis.

1162
01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:40,560
Speaker 1: I mean, Josh Allen and Gabe Davis looked like they

1163
01:04:40,680 --> 01:04:43,520
Speaker 1: just picked up where they left off once OTA practices

1164
01:04:43,600 --> 01:04:49,000
Speaker 1: and camps mini camps started up again. So adding that

1165
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:52,680
Speaker 1: to watch Josh Allen mature and to watch him grow

1166
01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:55,080
Speaker 1: every single year, and to add more things into his

1167
01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:58,320
Speaker 1: arsenal and to be able to perfect and twitch and

1168
01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:01,680
Speaker 1: tweak little things within his game, this is this is

1169
01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:03,840
Speaker 1: one of the next things that he's been eyeing, and

1170
01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:07,840
Speaker 1: it's needed on the offense. Based on that statistic that

1171
01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:11,720
Speaker 1: you just said, how does that open things up for

1172
01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:16,919
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills this year? Yeah? And it also knowing

1173
01:05:17,040 --> 01:05:19,560
Speaker 1: that and as we've seen in past years, anything that

1174
01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:22,400
Speaker 1: Josh decides to work on in the offseason is demosuly

1175
01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:25,520
Speaker 1: better the very next year. It's uncanny his ability to

1176
01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:29,560
Speaker 1: improve individual areas of his skill set. But when I

1177
01:05:29,720 --> 01:05:35,320
Speaker 1: heard Josh say that, it made me think, Okay, how

1178
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:39,280
Speaker 1: do you create more Like if you're throwing guys open,

1179
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:43,760
Speaker 1: that's great, but from a coordinator perspective. You also have

1180
01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:47,560
Speaker 1: to open up the field more so there is more

1181
01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:50,440
Speaker 1: space to exploit after the catch as well, and that

1182
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:54,000
Speaker 1: route concepts have a lot to do with that. So

1183
01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:58,360
Speaker 1: how is coach Dorsey going to manufacture that in terms

1184
01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:01,240
Speaker 1: of space after the catch for the player to exploit

1185
01:06:01,720 --> 01:06:05,640
Speaker 1: if Josh is successful in throwing them open? And it

1186
01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:08,280
Speaker 1: makes me wonder, does that mean we're going to see

1187
01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:12,360
Speaker 1: more spread concepts? There might be running backs on the field,

1188
01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:14,000
Speaker 1: but none of them might be in the backfield, you

1189
01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:16,080
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So I'm kind of wondering what

1190
01:06:16,240 --> 01:06:19,640
Speaker 1: that's all gonna look like by the time we get

1191
01:06:19,680 --> 01:06:23,080
Speaker 1: to the fall. Yes, I believe Josh will be able

1192
01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 1: to improve in throwing receivers open. But will Coach Dorsey

1193
01:06:27,880 --> 01:06:31,400
Speaker 1: in turn be able to create the space needed to

1194
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:35,360
Speaker 1: take full advantage of those kinds of situations. That's the

1195
01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:39,720
Speaker 1: That's the thing that I'm really eager to see. How

1196
01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:42,920
Speaker 1: is that going to look on the field to facilitate that?

1197
01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:46,760
Speaker 1: I don't know. I have full confidence he'll be able

1198
01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:51,800
Speaker 1: to do what's needed, but I have no idea, no

1199
01:06:52,080 --> 01:06:54,520
Speaker 1: idea at all what's it gonna look like exactly? Which

1200
01:06:54,560 --> 01:06:57,080
Speaker 1: is why I'm interested to see what he's got drawn up.

1201
01:06:57,720 --> 01:07:00,680
Speaker 1: Seth on the tweet sheet. It's got to be Cook.

1202
01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:03,440
Speaker 1: He will be the ultimate weapon at the running back position.

1203
01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:05,520
Speaker 1: Move that dude all over the field pre snap, use

1204
01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:07,880
Speaker 1: him as a decoy if the play isn't designed for him.

1205
01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:11,040
Speaker 1: Tight ends and wide receivers will benefit from his presence.

1206
01:07:11,560 --> 01:07:14,920
Speaker 1: Maybe a few sixty plus yard explosive plays from him too.

1207
01:07:15,520 --> 01:07:19,040
Speaker 1: I think Bill's fans, at least from what we've heard

1208
01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:21,040
Speaker 1: from them the last couple of years, about the running

1209
01:07:21,040 --> 01:07:25,400
Speaker 1: back position, specifically Maddie is where is the home run threat?

1210
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:28,840
Speaker 1: And they try to add one in the form of

1211
01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:31,760
Speaker 1: Matt Breda last year, but ball security became an issue

1212
01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:33,160
Speaker 1: for him and he found a seat on the bench

1213
01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:36,360
Speaker 1: because we know coach McDermot doesn't like that, nor does

1214
01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:40,919
Speaker 1: any other head coach problem for that matter. But Cook

1215
01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:44,880
Speaker 1: has four four two speed that can be breakaway, take

1216
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:47,560
Speaker 1: it to the house speed. Depending on what level of

1217
01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:50,280
Speaker 1: secondary you're going against, you might not outrun the corners,

1218
01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:52,320
Speaker 1: but if the corners are up the field cover in

1219
01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:56,080
Speaker 1: short squat routes, he probably can outrun a good number

1220
01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:58,080
Speaker 1: of safeties to the end zone if he gets an angle.

1221
01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:00,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, there could be some home run plays from

1222
01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:03,800
Speaker 1: a guy like him. I think there definitely can be.

1223
01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:06,880
Speaker 1: It's also interesting to think about him in the fold

1224
01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:10,200
Speaker 1: and also think about the running back position as a

1225
01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:13,880
Speaker 1: whole within what the Bills do on offense. There's never

1226
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:16,559
Speaker 1: gonna be that and We've talked about this, and I've

1227
01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:18,280
Speaker 1: talked about it a lot. There's never going to be

1228
01:08:18,479 --> 01:08:23,559
Speaker 1: that it guy in running back form on this offense

1229
01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:26,160
Speaker 1: because of the quarterback in Josh Allen. So finding a

1230
01:08:26,280 --> 01:08:29,040
Speaker 1: player like James Cook who can supplement things in a

1231
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:32,080
Speaker 1: way that can really take Josh's game to the next

1232
01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:36,680
Speaker 1: level or help Josh diversify the offense. James Cook is

1233
01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:39,400
Speaker 1: a guy who can do that and to have that

1234
01:08:39,680 --> 01:08:43,280
Speaker 1: speed along with running back ball security hasn't really been

1235
01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:45,439
Speaker 1: an issue with him in the college game at all.

1236
01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:50,200
Speaker 1: So put those things together, I think you have something

1237
01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:52,600
Speaker 1: that can that can help and can work. And I

1238
01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:56,320
Speaker 1: don't know that anybody should automatically assume that if James

1239
01:08:56,400 --> 01:08:58,400
Speaker 1: Cook on the feet is on the field, that means

1240
01:08:58,439 --> 01:09:02,640
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary is off. I think I can envision a

1241
01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:05,760
Speaker 1: lot of scenarios and a lot of plays where they're

1242
01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:07,680
Speaker 1: both on the field at the same time. Now they

1243
01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:09,880
Speaker 1: might not both be in the backfield. One might be

1244
01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:11,559
Speaker 1: split out wide and the other one might be sitting

1245
01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:14,200
Speaker 1: in the backfield, or who knows, they might both be

1246
01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:17,760
Speaker 1: split out because we know Brian Dayball would dabble in

1247
01:09:17,880 --> 01:09:21,920
Speaker 1: that time and again, going five wide, empty backfield, you

1248
01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:24,599
Speaker 1: know when Devin's singletary be lined up outside the numbers.

1249
01:09:25,160 --> 01:09:31,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, don't sleep on Devin Singletary. That's all.

1250
01:09:31,479 --> 01:09:33,880
Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. It's fine to be excited about Cook,

1251
01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:38,280
Speaker 1: just don't expect it to be at the expense's playing

1252
01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:40,720
Speaker 1: time for Motor. That's the only thing I'm saying. Yeah,

1253
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:43,040
Speaker 1: Motor is going to be part of this offense for sure.

1254
01:09:43,439 --> 01:09:46,240
Speaker 1: What Motor did last season at the end of the year,

1255
01:09:46,479 --> 01:09:49,960
Speaker 1: the yardage that he was averaging every game, it was

1256
01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:53,960
Speaker 1: around eighty or ninety, just under one hundred yards a game.

1257
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:56,280
Speaker 1: I think for what the last four games, last five

1258
01:09:56,360 --> 01:09:58,960
Speaker 1: games he had a rushing touchdown something like that. He

1259
01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:01,479
Speaker 1: had those streaks at the end of the season when

1260
01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:04,160
Speaker 1: the offensive line play also really picked up as well

1261
01:10:04,240 --> 01:10:07,320
Speaker 1: and came together and you really got to see, Okay,

1262
01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:10,160
Speaker 1: this is why they drafted Devin singletary. This is why

1263
01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:15,120
Speaker 1: Motorum is an integral and important part of the offense

1264
01:10:15,200 --> 01:10:18,800
Speaker 1: and what the Bills are doing here. I hope that

1265
01:10:18,960 --> 01:10:22,240
Speaker 1: carries over this season. We know, we know Motor as

1266
01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:25,599
Speaker 1: a person. He's a great guy. You want to fight

1267
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:27,960
Speaker 1: for him, you want to see him do good. He

1268
01:10:28,080 --> 01:10:30,960
Speaker 1: works really hard. He had that glow up two off

1269
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:33,720
Speaker 1: seasons ago when he came in really really strong and

1270
01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:35,679
Speaker 1: added a lot of muscle mass to what he's doing

1271
01:10:35,960 --> 01:10:38,040
Speaker 1: to be able to hit the holes a little bit stronger.

1272
01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:41,240
Speaker 1: We know Motor is a shifty guy, but to be

1273
01:10:41,280 --> 01:10:45,080
Speaker 1: able to make it down field more and to do

1274
01:10:45,200 --> 01:10:49,000
Speaker 1: it in a tougher way. So Motor is going to

1275
01:10:49,040 --> 01:10:51,240
Speaker 1: be a part of the offense. James James Cook is

1276
01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:53,479
Speaker 1: going to be a part of the offense. Um, we'll

1277
01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:55,960
Speaker 1: see what the running back play looks like this year,

1278
01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:58,200
Speaker 1: what it's going to look, if it's gonna be any different,

1279
01:10:58,520 --> 01:11:01,240
Speaker 1: and if Zach Moss is a also a part of

1280
01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:05,080
Speaker 1: the equation or the conversation. I'm interested to see how

1281
01:11:05,200 --> 01:11:10,080
Speaker 1: that plays out, right, because I don't think I don't

1282
01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:13,160
Speaker 1: think we realize it at the time, but we learned later,

1283
01:11:14,280 --> 01:11:19,000
Speaker 1: especially when Brandon Bean brought it up that Zack's ankle

1284
01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:24,280
Speaker 1: that was busted in the playoff game against Indie in

1285
01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:27,760
Speaker 1: the playoffs in the twenty twenty season, that happened in

1286
01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:32,800
Speaker 1: January twenty twenty one, and come regular season twenty twenty one,

1287
01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:38,280
Speaker 1: according to Brandon Bean, it still wasn't right. And when

1288
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:42,120
Speaker 1: you're playing a high impact position like running back that

1289
01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:46,600
Speaker 1: involves a lot of cutting, change of direction, one of

1290
01:11:46,680 --> 01:11:49,120
Speaker 1: your wheels isn't right, it's tough to be the same

1291
01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:52,679
Speaker 1: player that you were. And I think, at least based

1292
01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:55,320
Speaker 1: on what Brandon Bean said, I think Zach struggled with

1293
01:11:55,439 --> 01:11:57,759
Speaker 1: that at times, certainly in the first half of the season.

1294
01:11:57,920 --> 01:12:01,160
Speaker 1: So that's another guy that I'm really interested to see

1295
01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:05,400
Speaker 1: in the camp setting with the pads on when it's

1296
01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:08,640
Speaker 1: a little bit more full speed. How elusive is he

1297
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,840
Speaker 1: How is his cutting off of that left foot? You know,

1298
01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:15,479
Speaker 1: is that thing good to go now more than a

1299
01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:19,280
Speaker 1: year removed from the injury in the playoffs. So that's

1300
01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:21,360
Speaker 1: what I'm going to be looking for from Moss. What's

1301
01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:24,160
Speaker 1: his level of explosiveness? How sudden is he cutting off

1302
01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:26,600
Speaker 1: of that left foot? So that's what I want to

1303
01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:28,320
Speaker 1: see from him, and I think if he has that

1304
01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:34,120
Speaker 1: back in his skill set, not only advantage Bill's offense,

1305
01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:37,080
Speaker 1: but advantage Moss in terms of maybe getting a little

1306
01:12:37,120 --> 01:12:39,760
Speaker 1: more time on the field than he did last year.

1307
01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:42,479
Speaker 1: That's the thing for me. He was a short yardage

1308
01:12:42,520 --> 01:12:46,240
Speaker 1: guy too. How does that look like with Jameson Crowder

1309
01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:49,720
Speaker 1: on the roster too. We know Jameson Crowder and Zach

1310
01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:51,960
Speaker 1: Moss are different players, but I think they can be

1311
01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:55,679
Speaker 1: used in similar situations and scenarios and down in distance

1312
01:12:56,479 --> 01:13:01,160
Speaker 1: when you're talking about short yardage situations, third second and

1313
01:13:01,240 --> 01:13:05,680
Speaker 1: short whatever. So I'm also interested to see how that

1314
01:13:05,920 --> 01:13:09,960
Speaker 1: works out. And going back to the running back position

1315
01:13:10,120 --> 01:13:14,080
Speaker 1: on a Bill's offense, the running backs aren't going to

1316
01:13:14,160 --> 01:13:17,320
Speaker 1: get handed the rock over and over and over and

1317
01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:19,639
Speaker 1: over again to the point where they get in a rhythm.

1318
01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:22,519
Speaker 1: You hear a lot of people talk about for running

1319
01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:24,200
Speaker 1: back to get in a good rhythm, he needs to

1320
01:13:24,240 --> 01:13:27,000
Speaker 1: be handed the ball a lot. That's not necessarily going

1321
01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:29,880
Speaker 1: to happen in this offense. So to have a successful

1322
01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:32,439
Speaker 1: running back on this team, you have to be able

1323
01:13:32,520 --> 01:13:38,679
Speaker 1: to have success get yards with being handed the ball,

1324
01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:41,920
Speaker 1: not over and over and over again. Can Zach Moss

1325
01:13:42,000 --> 01:13:45,759
Speaker 1: be that type of player? Yeah, I mean it remains

1326
01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:48,000
Speaker 1: to be seen. I don't think the identity of this

1327
01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:50,320
Speaker 1: offense is to run it over and over again. So

1328
01:13:51,240 --> 01:13:53,679
Speaker 1: those backs have to be good at making the most

1329
01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:56,440
Speaker 1: of the opportunities that they do get. I think Singletary

1330
01:13:56,600 --> 01:13:58,800
Speaker 1: kind of got the hang of that late in the

1331
01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:01,000
Speaker 1: year last year, as you pointed out already with some

1332
01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:06,920
Speaker 1: of his production down the stretch. It's not easy. There

1333
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:10,439
Speaker 1: are some backs in this league that need the volume

1334
01:14:11,160 --> 01:14:14,519
Speaker 1: to get in a rhythm, let alone to set up

1335
01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:18,599
Speaker 1: defensive players, you know, with moves that are different from

1336
01:14:18,600 --> 01:14:22,600
Speaker 1: the play they ran the last time. So you have

1337
01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:25,320
Speaker 1: to adjust. I think a lot of backs across the

1338
01:14:25,400 --> 01:14:28,479
Speaker 1: league have to adjust, if they haven't already, because more

1339
01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:30,439
Speaker 1: and more and more of these teams in the league,

1340
01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:33,320
Speaker 1: maybe with the exception of two or three, you know,

1341
01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:36,200
Speaker 1: like the Ravens and the Titans and maybe a couple

1342
01:14:36,280 --> 01:14:40,479
Speaker 1: of others. You got to be able to handle a

1343
01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:43,680
Speaker 1: minimal workload and maintain your level of effectiveness as a

1344
01:14:43,760 --> 01:14:46,519
Speaker 1: running back in this league, because if you can, you're

1345
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:49,000
Speaker 1: probably not gonna be on the field much. So you've

1346
01:14:49,000 --> 01:14:51,440
Speaker 1: got to be able to perform even when your opportunities

1347
01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:53,680
Speaker 1: are few and far between we have to take a

1348
01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:55,920
Speaker 1: break here. When we come back, we'll get to more

1349
01:14:55,960 --> 01:14:57,479
Speaker 1: of your thoughts on the tweet sheet and take your

1350
01:14:57,520 --> 01:15:01,240
Speaker 1: phone calls at eight oh three five fifty eight fifty

1351
01:15:01,320 --> 01:15:04,439
Speaker 1: two five fifty Today's twitter poll which addition to the

1352
01:15:04,479 --> 01:15:07,040
Speaker 1: Bill's offense will pay off the most? And why you

1353
01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:09,000
Speaker 1: got your choices there? You let us know on the

1354
01:15:09,040 --> 01:15:11,439
Speaker 1: tweet sheet or give us a call. Might be some

1355
01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:14,240
Speaker 1: time for a little NFL true false when we return

1356
01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:16,720
Speaker 1: as well. Here on One Bill's Live, presented by Kalida Health,

1357
01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:31,000
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. Welcome back to One Bills Live.

1358
01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:34,440
Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Matti glab with you here on a Thursday,

1359
01:15:35,240 --> 01:15:38,360
Speaker 1: and we are chopping up the tweet sheet today something fierce,

1360
01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:40,479
Speaker 1: as we've been asking you which new addition to the

1361
01:15:40,520 --> 01:15:43,559
Speaker 1: Bill's offense will pay off the most and why you've

1362
01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:47,679
Speaker 1: got choices? They are Oj Howard, James Cook, Jamison Crowder

1363
01:15:47,960 --> 01:15:50,680
Speaker 1: or other and a lot of people have been on

1364
01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:54,439
Speaker 1: the other train today, which was interesting. But Zach says,

1365
01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:58,720
Speaker 1: Crowder is so far under the radar right now, and

1366
01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:03,320
Speaker 1: I love it. My dude is going to feast in

1367
01:16:03,479 --> 01:16:08,160
Speaker 1: the slot. And I hope you are a hundred percent, right, Zach.

1368
01:16:09,560 --> 01:16:12,360
Speaker 1: The guy's a producer, proven producer, and he did it

1369
01:16:12,439 --> 01:16:15,000
Speaker 1: on a poor offense where he was the number one

1370
01:16:15,120 --> 01:16:18,679
Speaker 1: target the last couple of years. There wasn't a whole

1371
01:16:18,760 --> 01:16:21,439
Speaker 1: lot else that they had to offer. Now, he did

1372
01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:23,280
Speaker 1: get nicked up, missed a couple of games last year

1373
01:16:23,320 --> 01:16:26,240
Speaker 1: for the Jets, but he played in a wayward offense

1374
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:33,040
Speaker 1: and was still productive. So even though very often he

1375
01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:37,120
Speaker 1: was drawing a lot of attention from opposing defenses being

1376
01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:41,120
Speaker 1: the most productive person in the passing game. So yeah,

1377
01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:45,000
Speaker 1: I'm encouraged because with all the other weapons, I think

1378
01:16:45,040 --> 01:16:47,600
Speaker 1: this guy's going to do killer work coming out of

1379
01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:51,080
Speaker 1: the slot. And not for nothing. Brandon being kind of

1380
01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:55,919
Speaker 1: revealed that three years ago they were looking at multiple

1381
01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:59,000
Speaker 1: options for the slot receiver role. Cole Beasley was won,

1382
01:16:59,080 --> 01:17:03,360
Speaker 1: but Jamison crowd was the other and Crowder ultimately chose

1383
01:17:03,400 --> 01:17:05,679
Speaker 1: to sign with the Jets because they were offering more money.

1384
01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:08,680
Speaker 1: But here they are three years later and Crowder is

1385
01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:11,880
Speaker 1: only twenty eight years old, and the Bills are going

1386
01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:16,559
Speaker 1: to benefit here for sure. More tweet chief comments Nick says,

1387
01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:19,120
Speaker 1: if oj lives up to his potential and the Bills

1388
01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:20,680
Speaker 1: put both him and knocks on the field at the

1389
01:17:20,720 --> 01:17:23,760
Speaker 1: same time, along with Digs, Davison, motor OMG. Who can

1390
01:17:23,840 --> 01:17:27,040
Speaker 1: stop that lineup? The Bills may be the new greatest

1391
01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:30,360
Speaker 1: show on turf. I think OJ is being slept on.

1392
01:17:31,400 --> 01:17:35,120
Speaker 1: I think the thing with OJ Howard Maddie is it

1393
01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:39,920
Speaker 1: it's turned into a show me situation, right. I think

1394
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:43,959
Speaker 1: he's a physical specimen. People are aware of his exploits

1395
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,600
Speaker 1: in college. He was a first round draft choice for

1396
01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:51,080
Speaker 1: a reason, but because it hasn't been proven on the field,

1397
01:17:52,520 --> 01:17:54,560
Speaker 1: this is a show me and then I'll get on

1398
01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:56,960
Speaker 1: board type situation. And it's one of the main reasons

1399
01:17:57,000 --> 01:17:58,800
Speaker 1: why the Bills signed him to just a one year deal.

1400
01:17:59,360 --> 01:18:03,080
Speaker 1: And it's a show me reason because he's been in

1401
01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:05,679
Speaker 1: and out of the lineup with injuries with the Bucks.

1402
01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:10,280
Speaker 1: Like you said, it hasn't. It hasn't. The college football

1403
01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:14,639
Speaker 1: game hasn't transferred over into the NFL game for him,

1404
01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:18,760
Speaker 1: I wanted to. I wanted to on this offense. I

1405
01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:22,599
Speaker 1: wanted to on the Buffalo Bills. I think the key

1406
01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:25,600
Speaker 1: thing for him and when I've talked to people with

1407
01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:28,639
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers, what They've said is his thing was always

1408
01:18:28,680 --> 01:18:32,880
Speaker 1: the injuries. If it wasn't the injuries, they think he

1409
01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:35,880
Speaker 1: would have been able to show some of what he

1410
01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:39,040
Speaker 1: did at what he excelled at in college. So hopefully

1411
01:18:39,120 --> 01:18:42,200
Speaker 1: this guy can stay healthy because, like you said, the

1412
01:18:42,400 --> 01:18:46,080
Speaker 1: physical attributes of him that they are there. He has

1413
01:18:46,280 --> 01:18:48,680
Speaker 1: NFL tight end written all over him when you look

1414
01:18:48,760 --> 01:18:51,800
Speaker 1: at him. And if you remember when he signed, one

1415
01:18:51,840 --> 01:18:55,519
Speaker 1: of the reasons he did sign here was because of

1416
01:18:55,640 --> 01:19:00,080
Speaker 1: what he read about the sports science department here and

1417
01:19:00,320 --> 01:19:03,080
Speaker 1: all the stuff that the athletic training staff does with players,

1418
01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:06,760
Speaker 1: and not for nothing. Over the last three years, the

1419
01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:11,560
Speaker 1: Bills have one of the healthiest rosters in football that

1420
01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:15,840
Speaker 1: resonates with players who know they can only maximize their

1421
01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:19,599
Speaker 1: abilities by being available weekend and week out. That's how

1422
01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:22,120
Speaker 1: you make money in this league, by staying on the

1423
01:19:22,240 --> 01:19:25,760
Speaker 1: field and producing. Howard knows he has been unable to

1424
01:19:25,840 --> 01:19:28,720
Speaker 1: do that the last few years in Tampa. He has

1425
01:19:28,720 --> 01:19:31,000
Speaker 1: seen how healthy this roster has been in Buffalo the

1426
01:19:31,080 --> 01:19:32,400
Speaker 1: last three years and says, you know what, I'm going

1427
01:19:32,479 --> 01:19:34,560
Speaker 1: to try my hand up there. They're gonna help me

1428
01:19:34,600 --> 01:19:36,160
Speaker 1: stay on the field. I know I can get the

1429
01:19:36,280 --> 01:19:39,360
Speaker 1: job done. And so hopefully those two things come together

1430
01:19:39,840 --> 01:19:43,840
Speaker 1: and he can maximize his potential. Pat on the tweet

1431
01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:47,120
Speaker 1: sheet says, I think Crowder will be the outlet workhorse,

1432
01:19:47,240 --> 01:19:50,120
Speaker 1: just as Cole Beasley was, but I think he will

1433
01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:52,840
Speaker 1: be better after the catch Howard and cook shine when

1434
01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:55,720
Speaker 1: called on. I think Crowder will be the shark in

1435
01:19:55,760 --> 01:19:59,559
Speaker 1: the water coming up with all kinds of analogies here today.

1436
01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:01,760
Speaker 1: People are fired up. I love this. People are back

1437
01:20:01,840 --> 01:20:04,439
Speaker 1: from vacation. They're ready to roll. So I twenty first

1438
01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:10,479
Speaker 1: and we are already rolling sharply midseason form. Pat, way

1439
01:20:10,520 --> 01:20:16,720
Speaker 1: to go. Yeah, I mean that that he envisions His

1440
01:20:16,920 --> 01:20:19,679
Speaker 1: vision is very similar to what mine was concerning Crowder.

1441
01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:22,599
Speaker 1: He's just going to be like a safety valve kind

1442
01:20:22,640 --> 01:20:26,680
Speaker 1: of guy for Josh when it's short yardage is what

1443
01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:29,479
Speaker 1: Josh needs. Yeah, and then in regular down and distance,

1444
01:20:29,600 --> 01:20:32,120
Speaker 1: I think he's going to offer some of those yards

1445
01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:37,799
Speaker 1: after catch plays in more plentiful supply than Cole Beasley

1446
01:20:37,920 --> 01:20:42,680
Speaker 1: was able to. Um, I'm just pumped. I think I

1447
01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:45,840
Speaker 1: think Crowder is a perfect fit for this offense. So

1448
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:50,040
Speaker 1: I would agree with you, Pat one hundred percent. Let's

1449
01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:52,920
Speaker 1: move over though for a minute here to a little

1450
01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:56,360
Speaker 1: NFL true falls as we tend to do in the

1451
01:20:56,439 --> 01:20:59,080
Speaker 1: final half. Hour of the show and see what we

1452
01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:01,920
Speaker 1: have on the diet today. NFL True Falls is you know,

1453
01:21:02,080 --> 01:21:08,439
Speaker 1: presented by Yancey's Fancy New York's Artisan Cheese and we

1454
01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:10,679
Speaker 1: have a little fun with this one. The first NFL

1455
01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:15,519
Speaker 1: True Falls. The Dolphins will be the one chaos team

1456
01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:22,200
Speaker 1: in the AFC East, true or false? The one chaos team,

1457
01:21:22,760 --> 01:21:26,479
Speaker 1: I'll say true. I think if anybody's gonna try to

1458
01:21:26,560 --> 01:21:30,040
Speaker 1: shake up the AFC East, it's gonna be the Dolphins. Oh,

1459
01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:32,400
Speaker 1: that's an interesting way you interpreted that. That's the way

1460
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:35,280
Speaker 1: that I interpreted. You're saying chaos in terms of causing

1461
01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:38,519
Speaker 1: problems for the Bills. That's how you've Yes, I think

1462
01:21:38,600 --> 01:21:41,680
Speaker 1: they have the biggest shot, the best shot at doing so,

1463
01:21:42,160 --> 01:21:45,120
Speaker 1: more so than the Patriots and the Jets. Okay, if

1464
01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:47,160
Speaker 1: you're if I looked at that statement that way, I

1465
01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:49,000
Speaker 1: would tend to agree with him. Okay, this is how

1466
01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:50,680
Speaker 1: I looked at this statement. The Dolphins will be the

1467
01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:53,280
Speaker 1: one chaos team in the AFC East. I thought that

1468
01:21:53,400 --> 01:21:58,000
Speaker 1: meant implosion. Ye drop plunger too. They're gonna be a

1469
01:21:58,160 --> 01:22:04,599
Speaker 1: tire fire? Will they be the one chaos team? Secretly,

1470
01:22:04,640 --> 01:22:09,479
Speaker 1: I'm hoping all three AFC's opponents are chaos teams. Will

1471
01:22:09,520 --> 01:22:14,759
Speaker 1: they be the only one? Because I think the potential

1472
01:22:14,920 --> 01:22:20,240
Speaker 1: is there for them to devolve into a chaotic situation.

1473
01:22:20,640 --> 01:22:23,000
Speaker 1: They've got a brand new head coach in Mike McDaniel.

1474
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:27,759
Speaker 1: They are going to really need their defense to carry

1475
01:22:27,880 --> 01:22:30,679
Speaker 1: them through the early part of the season. The first

1476
01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:34,479
Speaker 1: month of their schedule is pretty challenging, and I don't

1477
01:22:34,520 --> 01:22:36,759
Speaker 1: know if we can expect the offense to be humming

1478
01:22:36,800 --> 01:22:39,960
Speaker 1: along that early in the game under a new coach

1479
01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:44,880
Speaker 1: with a new scheme for TUA, So I could see

1480
01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:50,360
Speaker 1: them having some chaotic moments early in the year. I'm

1481
01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:53,000
Speaker 1: secretly kind of hoping, though, that the Patriots are the

1482
01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:57,519
Speaker 1: tire fire and they completely bottom out. So I am

1483
01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:00,080
Speaker 1: so I am going to I'm going to approach it

1484
01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:03,519
Speaker 1: this way, Maddie. I'm going to say false because I

1485
01:23:03,640 --> 01:23:07,840
Speaker 1: believe not only the Dolphins, but potentially the Patriots will

1486
01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:12,680
Speaker 1: both be chaos teams in the AFC. So I'm here,

1487
01:23:12,920 --> 01:23:15,479
Speaker 1: not the Jets. Where are the Jets in that conversation? Yeah,

1488
01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:17,639
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get the Jets a break here for runs.

1489
01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:21,640
Speaker 1: They get piled on an awful lot um. I think

1490
01:23:21,680 --> 01:23:24,000
Speaker 1: the Jets could be a seven win team this year.

1491
01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:26,680
Speaker 1: I think they could go seven and ten with a

1492
01:23:26,720 --> 01:23:30,519
Speaker 1: little bit of luck. Wow. Yeah, I mean, you know,

1493
01:23:30,640 --> 01:23:32,559
Speaker 1: they're not making the playoffs or anything, but I think

1494
01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:35,080
Speaker 1: they could make a little jump here. A lot has

1495
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:40,240
Speaker 1: to happen. Zach Wilson's gonna play, you know, do better

1496
01:23:40,320 --> 01:23:43,400
Speaker 1: on the field than he has off apparently. Um so

1497
01:23:43,600 --> 01:23:47,320
Speaker 1: there's that. But yeah, I think I think the Patriots

1498
01:23:47,400 --> 01:23:53,320
Speaker 1: are ripe for a plummet because you know, Mac Jones,

1499
01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:55,200
Speaker 1: he might have a better year than he had last

1500
01:23:55,280 --> 01:23:57,760
Speaker 1: year for all we know. But with the new coordinator thing,

1501
01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:02,080
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be tricky, especially with the two

1502
01:24:02,160 --> 01:24:04,719
Speaker 1: guys that are potentially going to be doing that stuff.

1503
01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:09,559
Speaker 1: They don't have a free agency too, is no help there.

1504
01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:13,599
Speaker 1: He traded for DeVante Parker. Okay, he's a talented guy,

1505
01:24:13,680 --> 01:24:16,680
Speaker 1: but he's hurt a lot. He sits out with hangnails

1506
01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:19,439
Speaker 1: like he's not a gamer, you know what I mean.

1507
01:24:20,160 --> 01:24:24,120
Speaker 1: So I think there's the potential for pure chaos to

1508
01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:27,160
Speaker 1: engulf the Patriots and oh my god, like Steve says,

1509
01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:31,479
Speaker 1: I'll be lapping that up like chocolate pudding. Okay, NFL

1510
01:24:31,600 --> 01:24:38,200
Speaker 1: true false Number two Patrick Mahomes will perform better without

1511
01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:43,639
Speaker 1: Tyree Hill, I'm saying false. I think he could perform

1512
01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:48,439
Speaker 1: equally as as well as good without Tyreek Hill. But

1513
01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:52,360
Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to be better without Tyreek Hill.

1514
01:24:52,840 --> 01:24:57,160
Speaker 1: I think Patrick Mahomes has already I don't know if

1515
01:24:57,160 --> 01:24:59,759
Speaker 1: I want to say peaked. I think he has reached

1516
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,440
Speaker 1: the top of his game. I think he can consistently

1517
01:25:02,640 --> 01:25:05,120
Speaker 1: stay at that. I don't know if we're going to

1518
01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:08,240
Speaker 1: see Patrick Mahomes take a big leap without Tyreek Hill.

1519
01:25:08,320 --> 01:25:12,200
Speaker 1: I just I don't see that happening. Yeah, better than

1520
01:25:12,560 --> 01:25:14,960
Speaker 1: better than he has with Tyreek might be a bit

1521
01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:21,880
Speaker 1: of a stretch. He had a fifty touchdown season with

1522
01:25:22,040 --> 01:25:25,320
Speaker 1: Hill and Kelsey. It's not like he's got a bunch

1523
01:25:25,360 --> 01:25:29,200
Speaker 1: of a bunch of just a bunch of regular dudes

1524
01:25:29,320 --> 01:25:32,719
Speaker 1: out there. He's got Juju Smith Schuster, He's got Marquez

1525
01:25:32,800 --> 01:25:39,439
Speaker 1: Valdez Scandling. So they've retooled with some interesting players. One

1526
01:25:39,680 --> 01:25:41,920
Speaker 1: guy who could be a high volume target in Smith

1527
01:25:41,960 --> 01:25:46,880
Speaker 1: Schuster in the slot, and then Valdez Scandling, who doesn't

1528
01:25:46,960 --> 01:25:48,880
Speaker 1: run quite as fast as Hill but isn't that far

1529
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:53,960
Speaker 1: off and has a proven deep threat. I think he

1530
01:25:54,040 --> 01:25:55,760
Speaker 1: can match what he's done, but I don't know if

1531
01:25:55,800 --> 01:25:58,599
Speaker 1: he can be better, so I will say false as well.

1532
01:25:59,439 --> 01:26:04,639
Speaker 1: I'm not convinced that he can be better. That might

1533
01:26:04,720 --> 01:26:10,080
Speaker 1: be tough. I wonder though, I really do, because we

1534
01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:13,960
Speaker 1: don't know how well the pieces are talented that they added.

1535
01:26:14,680 --> 01:26:18,160
Speaker 1: How well are they going to fit is the question.

1536
01:26:18,360 --> 01:26:20,919
Speaker 1: Of course. If you can't have success on a football

1537
01:26:20,960 --> 01:26:23,320
Speaker 1: field in a passing game with Patrick Mahomes, well then

1538
01:26:23,320 --> 01:26:26,439
Speaker 1: I got no hope for you because that guy lengthens plays,

1539
01:26:26,840 --> 01:26:29,840
Speaker 1: allows you more time to get open, and then puts

1540
01:26:29,920 --> 01:26:33,519
Speaker 1: it on you more often than not. So I think

1541
01:26:33,520 --> 01:26:35,160
Speaker 1: you could be as good. I just don't know if

1542
01:26:35,200 --> 01:26:38,000
Speaker 1: he can be better. All right? That is NFL True

1543
01:26:38,040 --> 01:26:41,120
Speaker 1: Falls presented by Yanti's Fancy Mattie and I step aside,

1544
01:26:41,160 --> 01:26:42,720
Speaker 1: but we close it out with some final thoughts on

1545
01:26:42,720 --> 01:26:44,840
Speaker 1: the tweet sheet from you when we return here on

1546
01:26:44,920 --> 01:26:46,960
Speaker 1: One Bill's Live, presented by Klaud of Health, It's Buffalo

01:27:24,040 --> 01:27:26,519

Speaker 1: on their screens right now. So get out there and

1555
01:27:31,280 --> 01:27:34,720
Speaker 1: roll up your sleeve, provided you have blood that people want.

1556
01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:39,360
Speaker 1: My my wife has an emia. She can't donate. They

1557
01:27:39,360 --> 01:27:42,040
Speaker 1: don't they don't want her. I've always been too light

1558
01:27:42,160 --> 01:27:45,640
Speaker 1: to donate. I've never waited up. You've been too what.

1559
01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:49,559
Speaker 1: I've never weighed enough to donate. Wigh enough? Yeah, you're

1560
01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:51,960
Speaker 1: not heavy enough. I'm not heavy enough. Oh my god,

1561
01:27:53,120 --> 01:27:55,960
Speaker 1: that's one would be by now I need to like,

1562
01:27:56,160 --> 01:27:59,400
Speaker 1: I need to check again. But I've usually never weighed enough,

1563
01:27:59,479 --> 01:28:02,599
Speaker 1: been heavy. You know, okay to donate, you know, if

1564
01:28:02,640 --> 01:28:06,599
Speaker 1: you're five feet tall if not easy. I have never

1565
01:28:06,760 --> 01:28:09,120
Speaker 1: heard that as Yeah. I mean, I guess if they're

1566
01:28:09,200 --> 01:28:11,759
Speaker 1: taking a pint from someone that goes about eighty five pounds,

1567
01:28:11,880 --> 01:28:15,720
Speaker 1: that could be an issue. So you miss out on

1568
01:28:15,800 --> 01:28:17,920
Speaker 1: all the goodies after you donate, because they load you

1569
01:28:18,040 --> 01:28:21,000
Speaker 1: up with Oreo cookies and everything else. They want to

1570
01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:22,800
Speaker 1: put the sugar back in you, so you can make

1571
01:28:22,880 --> 01:28:27,040
Speaker 1: your blood back, I guess so, yeah, no good thing

1572
01:28:27,120 --> 01:28:29,680
Speaker 1: to do. They always need blood, and I know the

1573
01:28:29,760 --> 01:28:33,479
Speaker 1: connectlife dot org takes all of their donations from Western

1574
01:28:33,520 --> 01:28:35,559
Speaker 1: New York and puts them right back into the blood

1575
01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:38,360
Speaker 1: bank in Western New York. So all the donations here

1576
01:28:38,439 --> 01:28:42,560
Speaker 1: locally stay here locally to be used for emergency situations

1577
01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:45,720
Speaker 1: and the like. So do right by your community and

1578
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:48,639
Speaker 1: get out there, roll up your sleeve. Some final thoughts

1579
01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:52,759
Speaker 1: from the tweet sheet. Maddie not one Day says Howard

1580
01:28:52,880 --> 01:28:54,880
Speaker 1: is on a prove it deal and allows options for

1581
01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:58,759
Speaker 1: Knox and Howard to be dynamic weapons. And from Daniel,

1582
01:28:59,360 --> 01:29:01,679
Speaker 1: I love the pick of Cook. He was my favorite

1583
01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:04,479
Speaker 1: running back in the draft and I'm glad he's ours.

1584
01:29:04,560 --> 01:29:08,000
Speaker 1: I'm thinking Rookie of the Year, Steve, Steve a blimp.

1585
01:29:08,160 --> 01:29:10,920
Speaker 1: I couldn't resist. Go Bills boy. That show open and

1586
01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:13,439
Speaker 1: when that disappears, will be better for it. And it's

1587
01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:17,200
Speaker 1: coming soon in training camp. We will be unveiling it soon.

1588
01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:21,280
Speaker 1: That's it for Maddie and I today, but we will

1589
01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:23,080
Speaker 1: be back here tomorrow at one. We'll see you the
