1
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: At a Steve Tasker who has been all over the field.

2
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 1: Kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role

3
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:18,759
Speaker 1: player for you, Steve, Steve a blimp. We're not even

4
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:25,480
Speaker 1: in the straded bear of normalcy here, all right. Welcome

5
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: to One Bills Live here on a Thursday, churning and

6
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 1: burning our way to Sunday. Gosh, this is gonna take forever.

7
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 1: It's the last game of the weekend. Steve, I'm not

8
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: gonna make it. And it's only Thursday, Oh my gosh.

9
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: But welcome to One Bills Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker

10
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: with you, and we've got some stuff to talk about today,

11
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: obviously concerning the game on Sunday evening in Kansas City.

12
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: We will get to that. We also have some comments

13
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: from Stefan Diggs who addressed the media, as well as

14
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: head coach Sean McDermott. But we'll also have some other

15
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: players addressing the media today. Believe Dean Dawkins had some

16
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 1: interesting things to say, so we'll pass those along to you.

17
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: As he addressed the media after practice today and second

18
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: hour of the show, making his weekly appearance the Hall

19
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: of Famer Thurman Thomas Thomas, Steve likes to say, um,

20
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: is there a reason we say it that way? I

21
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: did it. I've done it since I've known him. Oh, okay,

22
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: that's like your thing. Okay, did somebody say it that

23
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 1: way that prompted you to say it similarly? Or now,

24
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: just just a thing, okay thing. I don't know why.

25
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: I don't know where it came from. I don't know,

26
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: but that's that's my thing. Fair enough, fair enough. We

27
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: didn't get to this yesterday before we dive in headlong

28
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: to Bill's Chiefs. The whole Bruce Arians thing getting find

29
00:01:53,760 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars for striking his player in the head

30
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: on the field in what he describes as an effort

31
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: to pull him away from a pile of players at

32
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: the end of a play so we wouldn't get a

33
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: flag for an after the whistle penalty, which, let me

34
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: just say this, with a police baton, Bruce Arians is

35
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: not going to hit a guy on the helmet and

36
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 1: hurt him, let alone with his open hand. Correct. You

37
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: gotta get that that is a bad look for football

38
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: when you've got a coach whacking a guy on the

39
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: top of his helmet trying to get him away from

40
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: whatever was going on. In the field. Yeah, it was

41
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 1: a bad look. Yeah, the optics were poor, and you

42
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: have to believe that the league doesn't want those kinds

43
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: of optics in any way, shape or form. We've seen

44
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: the lengths that they've gone to enforce taunting penalties this

45
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: year because they don't want kids at the lower levels

46
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: of football to do it doing that kind of stuff

47
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: where they're getting in the face of an opponent after

48
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: running them over. Now, you have a good play, just

49
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: leave it at that. Let your play do the talking.

50
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: Don't stand over a guy, don't get in his face

51
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: and point at him or whatever. And that's why the

52
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: taunting penalties have been a point of emphasis this year.

53
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: This is probably another example of what they do not

54
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 1: want to see passed down to youth football of all places. Right,

55
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 1: I mean you're a coach, you got to go through

56
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 1: a lot of risk management regulations anyway, Yeah, it was.

57
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: It's not a for an adult person human being in

58
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: this scenario. Plus for a football player. I mean that

59
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: was and I can't even remember the name of the

60
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: guy he swagged. But even for that, that's not even

61
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,839
Speaker 1: a bump in the road. That's not even you would

62
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: even have a conversation about that hat work, not for

63
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: the attention that it got the player and the coach,

64
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: because it's just, you know, there's a fight going on

65
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: and Arians is trying to get his guy away from

66
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: the fight so they don't incur a penalty or something

67
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: worse happening in that scenario, and you know, basically to

68
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: get the guys it's Adams and yeah, I mean it

69
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: was it's a glancing blow. I was like, what are

70
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: you doing? And Bruce is still talking to him after

71
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: he wax him, and Bruce is getting after him because

72
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: there's a you know, there's an altercation on the field.

73
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 1: You don't want to get a penalty. And yeah, that's

74
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: bad look. But that's all it is. It's a bad look.

75
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,679
Speaker 1: It's not harmful to Adams, Bruce Aris didn't hurt himself, nobody,

76
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: and it was really that's sometimes that's what you gotta

77
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: do to get the guy's attention. I've learned that over

78
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: the years. It's not you know, fifty thousand dollars is

79
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: that came down swiftly. It's a nod to the optics

80
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,359
Speaker 1: of it. That's all it is. You cannot have college coaches,

81
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,919
Speaker 1: high school coaches youth football coaches thinking that's okay because

82
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 1: a guy who want a super Bowl did it under

83
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: any circle, stand and that's that's the fine, and that's

84
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: what it's about. So that was injury and that was

85
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 1: interesting saying that. Coming down uh Andy Reid, known as

86
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: a big red Steve Yea. He was asked about getting

87
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: to another super Bowl, and, as Andy Reid has done before,

88
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: he inserted a food analogy. He said, getting to the

89
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: super Bowl is like eating a piece of chocolate cake.

90
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: And if you've got another one dangling out there in

91
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 1: front of you, you're eating that one too. You don't

92
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: want to eat that one too. So that's what he Yeah,

93
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: that's what he likens to wanting to go to another

94
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: super Bow. Right. They asked him if his how do

95
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,039
Speaker 1: he keep his teams so hungry after you've had so

96
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: much success? You know, how do you stay keep your

97
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: team you know they're appetite up for winning, you know,

98
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: and it doesn't get complacent or you know, get tired

99
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: or whatever. He said, Well, I'm hungry because it's like

100
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: chocolate cake. It's a great analogy. That's why why guys

101
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: love him. Man, the guys you know, he is what

102
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: he is you know who we haven't seen recently, the

103
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: Andy Reid look alike guy. Remember the last time the

104
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: Chiefs were here, The last time the Chiefs were here

105
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: in Orchard Park, he was here. Yeah, he's the guy

106
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: that's in the stands. He's got a laminated play call sheet,

107
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: he's got the hat, the headset, his mustache is identical.

108
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: It is uncanny. Yeah, how much he looks like Andy Reid.

109
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: I missed that guy. I want to see him again.

110
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: I just think it's the most hilarious thing. CBS one

111
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 1: time had the greatest shot. They had a tight shot

112
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: of Andy Reid on the sideline calling the plays, you know,

113
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: with his card. He's standing there and he was sitting

114
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: ten rows directly behind where he was on the sideline,

115
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: and CB has just kind of pulled out and there's

116
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: another Andy Reid ten rows up in the stands. Oh

117
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: my god. It was great. Yeah, I loved it. You

118
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: know it's funny too, because, yeah, you don't see other

119
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: head coaches with doppelgangers like that. Right, that's as close

120
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 1: as I've seen it, very close, because you see other

121
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: teams would do it, right, I haven't seen it. I

122
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: haven't seen a guy imitating Sean McDermott or Belichick, any

123
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: of those guys. Yeah, but and you read that he's

124
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: got you'd think that'd be a good you know, that's

125
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: a thing, that'd be a thing. And coach McDermott was

126
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: asked yesterday what would his food analogy be answering the

127
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: same kind of question, and he said, well, I'd go

128
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 1: with a chocolate milkshake. So it's nice to know that

129
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: coach McDermott actually has a vice, which right, I mean

130
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: that guy hea'ts healthier than anybody. Um, I mean, he's

131
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: he's he's made of protein shakes and granola. I don't know,

132
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. I've ever seen him eat junk food

133
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: in my life. Now he claims he has a sweet tooth,

134
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: so maybe that's where the milkshake preference comes from. But well,

135
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: I mean his food discipline is probably off the charts.

136
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, he went, he went there, he went chocolate milkshap.

137
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: I was, you know, I was surprised, pleasantly surprised. We

138
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: all have our devices. I got more than my own

139
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: sheriff for sure. But we want to get into discussion

140
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 1: with you today with this chiefs Matt, this Bills Chiefs

141
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: matchup as it pertains and relates to the Week five

142
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,839
Speaker 1: matchup between the two teams. We know that the Chiefs

143
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 1: had some players missing on defense. We know the Bills

144
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: didn't have Matt Milano. There were some other circumstances going

145
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: on there in terms of where these two teams were

146
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: at at the time. And the Chiefs obviously had two

147
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 1: costly turnovers via interception. I think they had two fumbles

148
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: as well. Um, I don't know if they lost both

149
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: of those fumbles off to go back and check. One

150
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: of the I and T s gets returned for a

151
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 1: touchdown by Micah Hyde, and so you take a look

152
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: at that game. Obviously a lot has changed since then,

153
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: and I think both teams believe they have to change

154
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 1: their approach to their opponent this time around, knowing how

155
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: familiar these two teams are with one another, with as

156
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,439
Speaker 1: much as they have played over the last couple of years. So,

157
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: oh yeah, there's the fumble. Andre Smith came up with it.

158
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: So the question today is what will the Bills need

159
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: to change to have the same offensive success they had

160
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: in Week five against the Chiefs. Because Steve largely in

161
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: that first meeting the Bills took the top off of

162
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: their defense. They beat him with big plays. You know.

163
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,319
Speaker 1: The Dawson Knox touchdown comes to mind, got behind Soreson

164
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: Sorenson on a rollout by Josh, and there were some

165
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,199
Speaker 1: other plays like that through the course of the game

166
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: that led to big points for Buffalo. You have to

167
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: believe that the Chiefs are playing let's keep it all

168
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 1: in front of us, at least at the outset of

169
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 1: this game. After seeing Josh carve up the Patriots, you

170
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: have to believe they've got some pressure packages ready to

171
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: go for him, to try to force him into some

172
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,719
Speaker 1: hurried and ill advised decisions. Josh is better when he's

173
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: under pressure, better than anybody in the league sometimes. Yeah,

174
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 1: he had all day to sit back there last week

175
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 1: and he carved him up. Yeah. Well, here's the thing.

176
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: I think the Bills are gonna have to I think

177
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: the Bills are gonna have to score with the Chiefs,

178
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 1: and I think the Chiefs are gonna are gonna feel

179
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: the same way. I think this is game that you've

180
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: got to stay on the field offensively and come away

181
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: with touchdown. What is the best way for them to

182
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 1: do that? Though, under the anticipation that they're gonna probably

183
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,839
Speaker 1: take anything cheap or deep away. Oh you got Well,

184
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 1: you gotta stay on the field with first downs. Yeah,

185
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: that's gonna check down. Check it down, take the open thing,

186
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:01,439
Speaker 1: make a guy miss, get the first down, um, and

187
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: then if you get a chance, if the play breaks

188
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: down and Josh gets outside the pocket, then you know,

189
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: take the top off then. But you've got to get

190
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: first downs to stay on the field. You've got to

191
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: you got to stay on the field. I have to

192
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: say watching some of their games that rookie linebacker Bolton

193
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: is turning into a really nice player for them. This

194
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: Chief's defense has a lot more speed at the second

195
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: level than the Patriots too. Of course, the Patriots might

196
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: be the slowest, might have the slowest linebacking corps in

197
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: the league. They just have big, bulky, you know, run

198
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: stuffing type. They have linebackers from you know, two thousand

199
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: and three, not from twenty twenty one. The Chiefs have

200
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 1: some guys that can run and hit and cover for

201
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 1: that matter. Been pretty impressed with what Nick Bolton has

202
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 1: done for them the last few weeks. One of their

203
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: higher draft choices out of Missouri. I believe so He's

204
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: been an interesting player for them at the second level,

205
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 1: opportunistic type player. But what has to change for the

206
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 1: Bills to have the same offensive success they had in

207
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: Week five against the Chiefs Because very very often you

208
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: can't go in with the same plan and expect similar results.

209
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 1: So I'm very curious to see what Brian dables approach

210
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 1: will be with this group. And we saw last week

211
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: how they really spread the wealth Steve. I mean for

212
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,720
Speaker 1: the vast majority of that game, they were rolling receivers through,

213
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 1: like all five of them for the most part, and

214
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 1: even Kumero got a handfull of offensive snaps as the

215
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: six And it was a very balanced snapshare, which I

216
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: found very interesting. And I don't know what the main

217
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: impetus is. Maybe it's specifically game plan related to the

218
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: Patriots to kind of keep them on their heels. But

219
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: you keep rolling those guys through, I mean you could

220
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: see the Patriots like, who do we got now? What's

221
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: who's over here? Like? I think that throws I mean,

222
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: that throws a defense into thinking mode, which they obviously

223
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,679
Speaker 1: wouldn't that. The coaches don't want that, They just want

224
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: them playing, reacting, playing fast. You start throwing different combinations

225
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: out there every other down. I mean, man, I mean

226
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 1: that's just extra work. Mental. The Bills hung thirty eight

227
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 1: points on them last time with the turnovers that you

228
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: talked about, and that's you know, you've got to score.

229
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: You got to score that much. That's what you're gonna

230
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 1: have to do. Despite the fact that Bill's got the

231
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: number one scoring defense in the league, all of that stuff,

232
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: it's gonna take that that kind of point production to

233
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: win this game. High thirties, low forties. I think the

234
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: team that, you know, I think the team that can't

235
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: maximize their possessions in the end zone is going to

236
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: lose this game. So I think you really have to

237
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: get to a point where, you know, we've got to

238
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:47,959
Speaker 1: stay on the field, and I think it's going to

239
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: be a lot of go for it. So I think half,

240
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 1: you know, midfield is the is the line of demarcation.

241
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: Anything fourth down and three or less, you got to go. Yeah.

242
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: I think you got to put your foot on the

243
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 1: gas and you got to go all out in this game.

244
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 1: So Dawson Knox said earlier this week, all gas, no breaks. Um.

245
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: I think he's right. Fortune favors the bold. I think

246
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: he's right, you were able to score thirty eight points

247
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 1: on him the last time he played him in October,

248
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: and they weren't the same defense then. But you also

249
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: got four turnovers in that game. So yeah, it's kind

250
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: of a little bit of fools gold. Yeah, the point total, yeah, exactly. Yeah,

251
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: this was it was a tough game to score on.

252
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: But the Bills. You know, the Bills did some things

253
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: that were really good. Josh played extremely well. It was

254
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: in one another one of those hurdle games where you know,

255
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: you've seen the guy where he jumps over the top

256
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: of him. Emmanuel Sanders was a big factor in that

257
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: game as well. The running game wasn't working as well.

258
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 1: The offensive line was being shuffled as we remember so

259
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: now and now you got Devin Singletary is a bigger

260
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: factor in the offense at this point of the season.

261
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: The Bill's pass rushes a little better than it was

262
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: at that point of the season. Guys were you know,

263
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: Boogie Basham and Greg so, you know, Basham was just

264
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 1: getting to where he was active for games. So you

265
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 1: didn't have Matt Milano in that game. You did have

266
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: Tradavious White. There's a lot of differences three months later

267
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: as we look back on that on that game. But

268
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 1: both these clubs walk in here coming off a really

269
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: good victory, of really nice victory, looking for more. But

270
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 1: I just this game has all the feel of a

271
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: track meet of one of those high sing, high flying games.

272
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: I took a look at fourth down conversion percentage for

273
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 1: the season. This is the entire league, including last week's

274
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: postseason games. Fourth down conversion percentage for the league fifty

275
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 1: three point three percent. The Bills on the season regular

276
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 1: season were a perfect fifty percent eleven for twenty two.

277
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: On the season, the Chiefs converted sixty six point seven

278
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: percent of their fourth down go forward plays ten out

279
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: of fifteen, So fewer times they went on went for

280
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: it on fourth down, but more conversions percentage wise, ten

281
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: out of Yeah, that would be interesting to see two

282
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: and I don't have that in front of me. Um.

283
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 1: The Bills obviously did not go for it on fourth

284
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 1: down at any point in last week's game. Heck, they

285
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: barely got to third down half the time again down, Yeah,

286
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: I don't think they did, because they didn't punt. Um.

287
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: The Chiefs did not go for any fourth downs last

288
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: week against the Steelers either, because why Craig quite frankly,

289
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: they didn't need to after they turned it on and

290
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: scored five touchdowns in the span of eleven minutes and

291
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: thirty one seconds a game clock. So I for some reason,

292
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: and though I think a couple of those instances are

293
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: going to come into play here in this one, just

294
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 1: by virtue of the fact that I think Andy Reid

295
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 1: and Sean McDermott are going to feel there will be

296
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 1: instances where they say, we've got to stay on the

297
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: fields here, we got to keep this drive going, or

298
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,119
Speaker 1: we got to finish this drive with points based on

299
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 1: the time and the score in the game at that moment.

300
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: I think there will be instances like that that come up,

301
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:36,479
Speaker 1: probably for both teams, knowing Buffalo's defense is good and

302
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: can get stops and can put teams in fourth down

303
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 1: situations a lot. So as we've said on this show,

304
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 1: Andy Reid traditionally is even more more aggressive in the

305
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: postseason when it comes to fourth down in those kinds

306
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 1: of things than he is even in the regular season.

307
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 1: So it's going to be one of those games. A

308
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 1: lot of people, not to wrong, a lot of people

309
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: are saying this should have been the AFC championship game

310
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 1: again because nobody has faith in the Bengals and the

311
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 1: and everybody's been writing the Titans off for a month

312
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,919
Speaker 1: and a half, two months, and they won't go away.

313
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: So and you know, good for them, they're they're playing it.

314
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: But everybody wants to see or expected these two teams

315
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 1: to be there at the end, and now it comes

316
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,360
Speaker 1: out they're a week early and having to go through

317
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 1: one or the other. But it just feels to me

318
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 1: like points are going to be plentiful and you got

319
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: to get them. Why you can because the other guys

320
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: are going to as well. Yeah, we saw also one

321
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: of the Chiefs players, linebacker Willie Gay, was arrested for

322
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: misdemeanor criminal damage. We'll have to see where that goes

323
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: because I know his representatives released a statement about the

324
00:18:53,760 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 1: situation to provide it with more contexts. So what happens

325
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 1: between now and Sunday, I don't know if anything. Will

326
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 1: he was arrested on a misdemeanor criminal damage charge, So

327
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not gonna expect the wheels of justice,

328
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 1: let alone the league to be ready to act prior

329
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: to Sunday's game. I just that flat out to me,

330
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: just isn't gonna happen, despite what some people might think.

331
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: So it's just criminal damage to property. So it sounds

332
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 1: like some kind of argument ensued and people started throwing

333
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: some stuff around. I don't know, but certainly not what

334
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 1: you want this time of year, because you're trying to

335
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: get your roster focused on the task at hand, and

336
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: you know, guys smashing some chairs and tables. I don't know,

337
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 1: maybe they over just overlook it and whatever. We never

338
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 1: really got the full details. Yeah, So I don't think

339
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 1: it's going to change his availability status for Sunday though,

340
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: provided he's not incarcerated. Sorry, yeah, I'm sure he was.

341
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: You know, he got out, whether whether bail was said

342
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: or whether he got out on his own recognizance. I

343
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know what the arrangement did, but

344
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,400
Speaker 1: I just happened to see that yesterday and I was like, oh,

345
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: I wonder where that goes. So I don't know that

346
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: it goes anywhere. Probably not. I think in terms of

347
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 1: what needs to change for the Bill's offense is I

348
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:43,679
Speaker 1: would continue to go deep into your roster depth because

349
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 1: I really liked what using all those receivers on the

350
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 1: field last week did for them against that Patriots defense. Now,

351
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: was the Patriots defense overmatched for the most part, Yes, yes,

352
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 1: unequivocally yes. And the Chiefs defense obviously brings more speed

353
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,959
Speaker 1: and athletic ability to the table when defending these guys.

354
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 1: But I just think, as you mentioned on the show yesterday,

355
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 1: Steve the receiving corps for the Bills, there are different

356
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:18,959
Speaker 1: skill sets there, different different sized players as well different

357
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,880
Speaker 1: speed players. And I think rolling them through, it's clear

358
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 1: they trust all of them. Rolling them through, I believe

359
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: forces the opponent to adjust on the fly. And I

360
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 1: don't know, I just think it's a harder task. You

361
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 1: got more people to worry about. Well, you know, when

362
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: I was studying film, Beasley likes to work the leverage

363
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,640
Speaker 1: this way. Why does McKenzie even do that? Like, I mean,

364
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: I'm I'm sure they're studying all those things in Kansas City,

365
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 1: will be prepared, but remembering it in the snap of

366
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 1: a finger, if they go tempo on you in one run,

367
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: run two guys off, two guys on am I over

368
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 1: my over? That's if you believe none of those guys.

369
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 1: They'll ask none of those guys to do what the

370
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 1: other one does. I mean, if you don't think they'll

371
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 1: get McKenzie in there and post him up inside and

372
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: let him get some separation like just like Beasley does,

373
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 1: or vice versa. Now, certainly Beasley's not as fast as McKenzie,

374
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 1: but if you send him through the middle of the defense,

375
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,239
Speaker 1: they got to cover him. They got to cover him.

376
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 1: And particularly if they don't think he's going there and

377
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: they don't cover him because they on film he'd never

378
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 1: done that, that's a problem for them. Yeah, so you

379
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 1: got all that stuff in the back too. That so

380
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 1: if you want to get man, if they do trust

381
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: these guys like you, and I think they do, that's

382
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: on the table. Even though they haven't they may not

383
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: have shown any of that. So certainly the game that

384
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,119
Speaker 1: they put together, the game plan they put together for

385
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 1: the second Patriots game, when McKenzie came out and went crazy,

386
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: he was doing some things that maybe Beasley doesn't do,

387
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 1: or maybe exact same things Beasley does. I couldn't tell you.

388
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 1: But the simple fact is McKenzie's a different problem than

389
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: Beasley is, right, And you know, taking it a step further,

390
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: I think they've diversified the ways in which they've used

391
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: Beasley when Beasley had to spell or when McKenzie had

392
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: to spell Beasley because he was on the COVID reserve list.

393
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 1: They were using him against Miles Bryant in Week sixteen

394
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: against the Patriots. He was a mismatch and they were

395
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 1: getting him in man to man situations and he's just

396
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,400
Speaker 1: killing him on deep overs and stuff like that, which

397
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: you don't usually see Beasley running. So you know, that's

398
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: the kudos you give to Dable for tailoring play calls

399
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,679
Speaker 1: to the guys he's got on the field. I'm just

400
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 1: amazed he's able to call those plays when he's switching

401
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 1: the personnel groupings as often as he is. I heard

402
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: somebody say, you know, Beasley didn't have didn't didn't do much,

403
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,439
Speaker 1: just like he actually did. He had a couple of

404
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: catches that were both big, a nineteen yarder on a

405
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: second and ten. That one stood, and then there was

406
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 1: another one. There was another one called back. Yeah, So

407
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:07,119
Speaker 1: he's he's out there and he's contributing, gets targeted and

408
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: he gets a high percentage. He's efficient, so when they

409
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 1: target him, he catches it a lot. Uh. You know,

410
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 1: there's not many incompletions when they throw to him, So

411
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: it's he's a huge plus in that regard. So yeah,

412
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 1: I really I'm really interested to see more so this

413
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 1: last week in the Patriots game, how we were interested

414
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,199
Speaker 1: in what the game plans were gonna be. I think

415
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 1: this is just gonna be one of those games you

416
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: just gotta watch and see who who gets the ball

417
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: this time? Yeah, you know, eight oh three, five fifty one,

418
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: eight eight five fifty two, five fifty Let us know

419
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: what you think the Bills need to change. They have

420
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 1: the same offensive success they had in Week five against

421
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, and we'll get right to it with you.

422
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 1: Well all, you can also hit us up on the

423
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: tweet sheet at one Bills Live if you want, and

424
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 1: we're happy to get to those. Well, we're gonna do it.

425
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 1: Do a couple right now. And tweet sheet has always

426
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 1: brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official equipment

427
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: moving company of the Bills. Alan says, make this a

428
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: Diggs game with a side of motor keeping the defense honest.

429
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 1: So the last time we saw Stefan Diggs dominating and

430
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 1: taking over a game, it was against the Jets in

431
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 1: Week eighteen when Josh just kept going to him and

432
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 1: he had like eight receptions in the first half. Now

433
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 1: there was also a ulterior motive there to get him

434
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: to one hundred receptions on the season, but it's it's

435
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: certainly possible. I think any given week, provided the matchups dictated,

436
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: I have to believe he's going to be getting extra attention. Yeah,

437
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 1: I think it will fall on the other guys in

438
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: the receiving corps to make plays to pull that attention

439
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 1: away find him than they always do. And that's why

440
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 1: first meeting, Manuel Sandras caught a nice touchdown. I actually

441
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: a couple of touchdowns. So it's, uh, it's it's gonna

442
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: be up to Brian Daboll to figure out a way

443
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 1: to spread this football around. And I think it's been

444
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,640
Speaker 1: proven over and over again that these guys the receivers

445
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: are okay, they don't They're not gonna get upset if

446
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: you're scoring a lot of points and winning and they

447
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 1: don't get targeted enough or ever or whatever. So that's

448
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 1: not that's not the issue. The issue is getting the

449
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,439
Speaker 1: guys with the who can do it the best at

450
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 1: the ball, because that's who Kansas Sea is going to

451
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: try and take away. But I don't think this is

452
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 1: going to turn into one of those games where Steph

453
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: Diggs they can't target him, or they can't find him,

454
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 1: they can't get him involved. If Brian Dabo wants to

455
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:46,199
Speaker 1: create a way to get him the ball, he can.

456
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 1: But the problem is it's better to have the Chiefs

457
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 1: looking at Steph Diggs and doubling him and keeping a

458
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: focus on him and just killing him with this with

459
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: the others that the Bills trust so much. And if

460
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 1: you're talking, and we talked about it a lot, the others,

461
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 1: the Bill have a lot more quality others at their

462
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: receiving corps than the Chiefs do. I don't think the

463
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: Chiefs goes deep. They've got Tyreek, Kelsey Pringle and the

464
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: other Mikole Hardman, so they've they've got those guys. But

465
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 1: behind those they got Robinson. Okay, you know they but

466
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 1: and and we you know, we had the Pills go

467
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: down seven deep, right, even Kumero, right, and we will

468
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: have Chiefs. Radio color commentator Dane and Hughes on our

469
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 1: Bills by the Numbers podcast this week, and he was

470
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 1: telling us Pringle's the number two opposite Hill. Now he

471
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: has moved into that role, has been a more consistent

472
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 1: player than Mikole Hardman, and as a result he has

473
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: been producing for them. But past him, I don't know

474
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 1: if Patrick Mahomes fully trusts the back half of this

475
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: Chief's receiving corps, especially in a tight spot or a

476
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: big play situation and red zone, etc. He clearly trusts

477
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 1: Jerick McKinnon. He threw to him like a half a

478
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: dozen times in the last week's game against the Steelers,

479
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 1: and I think he was the leading receiver for them

480
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: in terms of receptions. He had six receptions for eighty

481
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: one yards and a touchdown. So McKinnon is an interesting

482
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:26,160
Speaker 1: late addition to the playmaking abilities of the Chief's offense.

483
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 1: But beyond Hill, Kelsey and Pringle, I don't get the

484
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 1: sense that Mahomes has the same kind of faith in

485
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: the back half of his receiving corps that Josh Allen

486
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 1: has in his. And you say, well, how do you

487
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: know that. We'll just look at who he's throwing to.

488
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: I mean, he'll throw to anybody anytime, anywhere on the field,

489
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 1: at any time in the game. Down a touchdown when

490
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 1: you need one, up a touchdown on a key third down,

491
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: third medium, He'll throw it to anybody yeah, you get

492
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: and he will throw it to anybody. Last game they

493
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: threw at thirty nine times and ran at twenty two times.

494
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: And that's that's one of the things when you get

495
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 1: them into It's one of the ways I think that's

496
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: helpful to the Bills, is it. If you can just

497
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: force one or two in completions in a row, you

498
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 1: get them off the field offensively, And that's big, that's big.

499
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: We have to take a break here, but when we

500
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: come back, we will get to your phone calls. Dennis

501
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: and Lewiston, Bob and Hanbury, Tom and Angola, Hank Tight

502
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 1: we will get to you when we return here on

503
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 1: One Bills Live, presented by Colloid to Health, It's Buffalo

504
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 1: Bills Radio. All right, welcome back to One Bill's Live.

505
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you and conversation today. What

506
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 1: will the Bills need to change? They have the same

507
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 1: offensive success they had in week five against the Chiefs.

508
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 1: We go to the phones now at eight oh three

509
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 1: h five fifty open line for you there, but we

510
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 1: start with Dennis and Lewiston. What do you have for us? Dennis,

511
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 1: You're on One Bills Live. Hey, guys, can you hear me. Yeah,

512
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: I can hear you. All right, how are you guys doing, man,

513
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: than taking a call again? Sure saying I think the

514
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 1: change has already happened, Okay. I mean over the past

515
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: month or so, our running game has evolved. You know,

516
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: we have a running game now. We didn't have one

517
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 1: back when we played them, and we fight. So I

518
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 1: really think we just need to stay the course. Don't

519
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: need to twerk or tweak anything else. Just just keep

520
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: the ship moving, man, Let's keep going. I got just

521
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 1: one game a win from the bowl, man, So just

522
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: you know, I think the Chiefs have a disadvantage because

523
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 1: we didn't have that running game. So now you know,

524
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 1: if they dropped those safeties down to try to, you know,

525
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: keep up with the running game, that's going to open

526
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 1: up the passing lanes for Josh and we're going to

527
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 1: be just fine. Man. And Okay, I'm nervous about the game,

528
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: but that's a good nervous, you know, I'm excited. Okay,

529
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: So you know, thanks for taking a call again, go Bill.

530
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 1: I love you guys. Uh see what you guys? Yeah,

531
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 1: thanks for the call, Dennis appreciate it. There is a

532
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 1: difference excited nervous as opposed to terrified nervous, and Dennis

533
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: is the excited Trenis and I would kind of be

534
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 1: and I would put myself in the same boat. And

535
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 1: he brings it up a good point, Steve, because you know,

536
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 1: you're talking about what has to be different this time around.

537
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,719
Speaker 1: Organically the Bills have changed into something different offensively already

538
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 1: from what they were in Week five. Yeah, but you know,

539
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: and that's why this is, you know, gav nerves about us.

540
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 1: So over the Chiefs. The Chiefs are not the same

541
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 1: team they played in five. The Chiefs started this season

542
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 1: three and four on the year, and they were struggling.

543
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: They couldn't find themselves. They were turning the football, they

544
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: were turning What they were doing was turning the football

545
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: over a ton. That's what was killing them and they

546
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 1: paid the price for it. Their defensive line with Melvin

547
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: Ingram and added has been difference, has been difference making.

548
00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 1: So I would submit, though though the Bills found their

549
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: offensive line about a month ago and it's been really

550
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 1: really good up to this point since then. They're not

551
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 1: going to change too much of anything, but they've got

552
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 1: to play well. They are, you know this, and Bill's

553
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 1: fans will tell you this, I don't know how Chiefs

554
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: fans feel. Sometimes I get the feeling the chief fans

555
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: think they're gonna roll their helmets out and win, and

556
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 1: because they've done it in the past. Yeah, but I

557
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: think both teams know they got to play really well

558
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: to win this game. You're right about the turnovers, because

559
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: after week five the Chiefs were a minus seven in

560
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 1: turnover differential. From week six to now they are a

561
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 1: plus ten. So they have completely turned around their carelessness

562
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 1: with the ball and it's made a gigantic difference for them.

563
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: We go back to the phones and to Bob and Hamburg.

564
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 1: What do you have for us? Bob? Hey, guys, how

565
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 1: are you doing? Good? Good? Glad to be on still?

566
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 1: So I have to change anything to show up and

567
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 1: do what you did in October? Would you knock them

568
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 1: on their ass? That's it? Yeah. The physical play was

569
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: noticeable in that game, right Bob. Yes, that's it. So

570
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: those are so physical right now, that's what they need

571
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 1: to do. That's it, Okay, bottom line, all right. I

572
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 1: need to walk into that game and want to smash

573
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 1: in the mouth where I was in front of them,

574
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 1: and play defense and play offense and not make mistakes

575
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 1: and they're gonna win the game. All right, that's it.

576
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: Fair enough, Bob, appreciate the call. As we mentioned at

577
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 1: the top of the show, they did have the benefit

578
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: of the Chiefs cough and the football up. You know,

579
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 1: two picks, the fumble on special teams. You know that

580
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 1: Andre Smith recovered that led to points. They've been a

581
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 1: lot as Steve pointed out, they've been a lot more

582
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: careful with ball security. Even Patrick Mahomes, who earlier in

583
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: the season was trying to do too much and committing

584
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: turnovers because of it, has rained it in considerably and

585
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 1: it's made a gigantic difference for them. Let's go back

586
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: to the phones and to Tom in Angola. Tom, what

587
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 1: do you got for us? I'd like to see the

588
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 1: Bills entertained similar running back like the Barriss did with

589
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: a refrigerator Perry, because when we had that Tennessee game,

590
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,279
Speaker 1: when it was crucial on that end zone set of

591
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 1: goal for the field goal, I think somebody like an

592
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 1: Ed Oliver, I mean that's not going to bounce off

593
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 1: like a lightweight running back could have falled through there

594
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: and got that for us. Thank you for your time,

595
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: all right, So I think he's talking about short yardage here,

596
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 1: Steve using a big old guy to pound it in

597
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: in a short yardage situation. You know. I mean, I've

598
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: said this, Josh is the best short yardage back in

599
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 1: the league. Yeah, I mean, because he's got the ball

600
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:54,920
Speaker 1: in his hands, he can throw it, he's got the

601
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: thread of throwing it all over the yard, and he's

602
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: got the threat also of beating you on on one

603
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 1: at the point of attack and just barreling his way

604
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: for the first He's got that kind of physicality, and

605
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: you don't know who's gonna you know, the guy who's

606
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 1: the most dangerous is gonna have the ball in his hands,

607
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 1: so you got to defend him first. And then there's

608
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: three other four other eligible receivers that are all viable.

609
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 1: So he's the best short yardage goal line back in

610
00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:22,799
Speaker 1: the league. I don't know that you need to put

611
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 1: At Oliver back there, or Kyle Williams or whatever you

612
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 1: want to. You know, whatever guy you want to. And

613
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,720
Speaker 1: he's used to having the ball in his hands. Most importantly,

614
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,719
Speaker 1: he's good at it. Think back in at the fourth

615
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,560
Speaker 1: and two or fourth and one in New England when

616
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: they were trying to drive to put the game away

617
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: and Josh bootlegs it out of there, knife between two guys.

618
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 1: Now we're seeing, you know, him going in the Kansas

619
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,399
Speaker 1: City game in October hurdling the guy for the first

620
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,320
Speaker 1: town on the third and five. I mean, I'm laughing

621
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,360
Speaker 1: because I'm looking at the Bill's side. Lie what he

622
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 1: does that? Go crazy? They're going bananas. He's walking back

623
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 1: to the huddle and Jerry is still giving it to

624
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:02,280
Speaker 1: the chief defense. He's standing there going, oh my god,

625
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 1: what just happened to you? Oh my god? Jerry is special, man.

626
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable because the guy he hurtles never touches him,

627
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 1: never touches him. So I don't know that you have

628
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 1: to reinvent anything or try and but I will say this,

629
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,279
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem trying something new. You gotta

630
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 1: be innovative. And Brian Dabo will say, oh, you know

631
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 1: what we are going to put ed Oliver you're in there.

632
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: And remember I used to Bless he's already got hurt.

633
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: Justin Zimmers should have been playing offense. Man, he's got

634
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:34,239
Speaker 1: some wheels. But you got something like that. I don't

635
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: have a problem doing that. Yeah, I don't know that

636
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: you need to because you got some if you play

637
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,359
Speaker 1: your best. But to catch him off guard, absolutely, I'm

638
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 1: all about it. You got to be innovative in these games.

639
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,720
Speaker 1: And they're putting in new plays, things they've never done before,

640
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,319
Speaker 1: things they've done a ton of with wrinkles in them.

641
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 1: All of that stuff's on the table and it's all

642
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:53,799
Speaker 1: part of the game plan and you gotta have it ready.

643
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 1: But I'm I hear what he's saying. I hear what

644
00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:00,400
Speaker 1: what he's saying. Because of you know, you need to

645
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,879
Speaker 1: beef up the short yardage stuff. I think there will

646
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 1: be two or three things that they we will have

647
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 1: on the call sheet this week where if the right

648
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: situation presents itself, he'll just throw it at him. And yeah,

649
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 1: I mean we've seen it before. Oh yeah, I mean,

650
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:20,200
Speaker 1: but go back to the Houston playoff game, Josh Chown

651
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 1: he caught the first touchdown. Yeah, so yeah. Um. Back

652
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,439
Speaker 1: to the phones though we go, and we've got rick

653
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 1: in Tonawanda waiting for us. What do you have for us?

654
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: Ricky on one Deal's live? Hey, you gotta do it

655
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 1: to day. Good good, Hey, Steve, you were a great

656
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 1: football player. You deserve the be Derek and all the thing.

657
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 1: But you're real, you were a great football player. Man,

658
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 1: appreciate it anyway. I don't think they should change Anything's

659
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 1: gonna be a real flapper knocker, don't doubt about it.

660
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 1: It's gonna be out. You blow out there, punch him

661
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 1: in the face and let you'll play football. Guys, have

662
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: a good day. You got it. Well, it seems like

663
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: the consensus Steve is, don't change anything. And I understand

664
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:10,919
Speaker 1: coming off a thirty point victory, you're like, we're good. Yeah, hey, hello,

665
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,919
Speaker 1: we're okay. Change the scoreboard, that's all you gotta change.

666
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,359
Speaker 1: I think we're forgetting that. This one starts zero zero. Yeah,

667
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,800
Speaker 1: it's zero zero now and the Chiefs are not the

668
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: same team as the Patriots. Now, the Patriots, you can say,

669
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:26,240
Speaker 1: had this statistically, a sensational defense, a very well schooled defense.

670
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:28,759
Speaker 1: I get that. Here's the thing I was talking to

671
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 1: you about this this morning. The Patriots philosophy is this,

672
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 1: they get smart players who are tough, and they coach

673
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,240
Speaker 1: them up and they got to have certain qualities mentally

674
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,879
Speaker 1: before they're even a candidate to be a Patriot, which

675
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: is okay, except they put that above physical skills, physical

676
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:49,319
Speaker 1: gifts and all that. So they get guys who they

677
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 1: do have some great athletes on their team, but not

678
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,720
Speaker 1: as many as others. They don't, that's not the majority.

679
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 1: So the Patriots come out there and you can you

680
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 1: can out athleticize and you get great players who are

681
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: physically gifted making great plays. That's hard for them, but

682
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,399
Speaker 1: particularly when you get execute. The Chiefs, on the other hand,

683
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 1: got a lot of guys with some traits. They can

684
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 1: run with you, jump with you, they can feed, physical

685
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 1: with you, and they're aggressive. They're all that you got

686
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: to You gotta execute against them at a high physical level.

687
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:20,959
Speaker 1: That's why the Chiefs are such a good football team.

688
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 1: They execute at a high level and they're gifted at

689
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: a high level. That's why you've got to play. And

690
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 1: the Bills have some guys, I mean, let's face it,

691
00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,880
Speaker 1: they got some guys with some gifts. Yep uh. They

692
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 1: got to play at a high level just like the Chiefs.

693
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 1: That's why this game is going to be more difficult.

694
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 1: When we were asking, like, what do you have to

695
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 1: do differently to get this done? On this this thing,

696
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 1: because the Chiefs present their own set of problems to

697
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 1: find some answers where we go to Herman and ken Moore.

698
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 1: What do you got for us? You're on one Bills live. Yeah,

699
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:54,279
Speaker 1: if the last possession of the game the winning one,

700
00:39:55,280 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 1: the last possession, yeah, that we get the mass. But

701
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:05,279
Speaker 1: she feeling like the game is going to be that,

702
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 1: the game of the last possession. Oh, he's basketball asking

703
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: if whoever is the ball asked? That's what I said

704
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 1: that a couple of times. I think the team with

705
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 1: the ball lasts gonna have a chance to win it? Yeah,

706
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 1: or will win it? Will they? Yes? What do you think?

707
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: He wasn't think they're Yeah, they're playing well, and they're

708
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,440
Speaker 1: they've got a chip on their shoulder. They're good enough,

709
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 1: they play well if they play as well as they

710
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: have last two or three weeks, Yes they will. I'm

711
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 1: with Dennis and Lewiston. I'm like excited, nervous, not terrified nervous,

712
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I don't know why it

713
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 1: is this game. I want to see this game. This game.

714
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:46,959
Speaker 1: I do too, but I don't know why. I feel

715
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 1: better about this one than even last year. And the

716
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: Bills were I mean, Steve, I don't have to tell

717
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:55,920
Speaker 1: you they were. They were laying people out. They're crushing

718
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,359
Speaker 1: the last six weeks of the year. Granted that didn't

719
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 1: necessarily translate into their first two playoff games that they

720
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:04,839
Speaker 1: won them, they were still playing winning football. I don't

721
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 1: know why I feel. I just feel better about this

722
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 1: group in this game than I did in last year's game,

723
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 1: because I remember we were talking about this last year

724
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: in January and we were saying, you're gonna have to

725
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,719
Speaker 1: keep up with the Chiefs in the scoring department. You

726
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,120
Speaker 1: can't take field goals. You have to score a touchdown.

727
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,360
Speaker 1: Here's the thing. They put twenty four points up on

728
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: the Chiefs last year in the championship game. The Chiefs

729
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:35,879
Speaker 1: had thirty eight. Yeah, as con was gonna be, Yeah,

730
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 1: gotta get up in the thirties. And if yeah, you gotta,

731
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: you gotta get in the thirties. And this game, right,

732
00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: that's that's the best five touchdowns. Yeah, that's the benchmark

733
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 1: for sure. You got and it'd be great if you

734
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 1: could get three a half. Isn't it crazy what we're

735
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 1: talking about here. That's the way it's gonna be, man,

736
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 1: you're talking about You're talking about it like this is

737
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 1: like the NBA. Here in the last half last quarter. Yeah,

738
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: you know, you're running out of possessions. That's and I'm

739
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,720
Speaker 1: not saying anything about our tea and our defense is great,

740
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 1: but man o, man, the Chiefs are a load every

741
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: single snap and that wears on you. And one misstep

742
00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: or whatever. You remember last year in that Chiefs game

743
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:21,399
Speaker 1: at the end, you know they're hitting five yard pass

744
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 1: to Tyreek Hill and he just runs in circles and

745
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: it's a forty yard game. Yeah, you can't. You can't

746
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: even hem him in because he outruns the angles everywhere,

747
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 1: and he outruns the angles quick. Yeah, so that's what

748
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,680
Speaker 1: you're looking at. You know. They they figure out a

749
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: way to get him the ball. Yeah, you're cooked, right,

750
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,879
Speaker 1: You're cooked. And so sooner or later they're gonna figure

751
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 1: that out, and they figure out a way to get

752
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 1: him the ball. He's not a tremendous route runner, but

753
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:54,239
Speaker 1: they can get him the ball. Yeah, he's not a

754
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 1: great route runner because he used to be a running back.

755
00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:00,279
Speaker 1: He's a converted running back from college. So, I mean,

756
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: to his credit, he's worked on it. I think he's

757
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:03,879
Speaker 1: a better route runner than he was a few years ago.

758
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,839
Speaker 1: He's got great moves at the line, a running back.

759
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 1: He's got that skill set. So at the line, he's

760
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 1: tough to get a hand on because he's got that

761
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 1: quick like make a guy miss mentality with the ball

762
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 1: and himmy hands right, he's got that. I think one

763
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 1: of the things he's so fast. Sometimes it's hard for

764
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 1: those guys to stop as hard as they need to.

765
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 1: And I think that may be as big a problem

766
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:25,680
Speaker 1: as he has anything running routes, because you've got to

767
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 1: stop hard, change direction quick and going completely different direction.

768
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 1: You can't round it off that kind of stuff. And

769
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,320
Speaker 1: sometimes for a route runner, being half a step slow

770
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 1: is better because you get better separation. Yeah, faster, faster's

771
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:42,879
Speaker 1: harder to stop and go. That's crazy to think about.

772
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: All Right, we gotta take a break. What are your

773
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 1: phone calls coming up next? So if you're on the line,

774
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 1: hang there, we'll get to you when we return here.

775
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 1: On One Bill's Live presented by Kali to Health, It's

776
00:43:50,400 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill's Radio, One Bill's Lives. The show Chris Brown,

777
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,920
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker with you, and we got to get right

778
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 1: to the phones to get more of your comments on

779
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:12,920
Speaker 1: what you think may or may not need to change

780
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 1: from the Bills week five matchup to now for the

781
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:20,279
Speaker 1: Bills offense to have the same success they did back

782
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:23,279
Speaker 1: in October. To Kevin in lockpoor, we going X. What

783
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 1: do you have for us? Kevin? Hi, guys, how are

784
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:31,560
Speaker 1: you doing? We're doing great? That's awesome. Tom me too, nervous,

785
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 1: but excited. Nervous. Yes, Steve, I remember you back in

786
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:39,600
Speaker 1: the day when during the Super Bowl years, he used

787
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 1: to do some radio and TV commercials for an arc

788
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 1: Cole I used to sell Carson. Okay, yeah, I was

789
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:52,719
Speaker 1: a long time Bills fan, all right. But I think

790
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:55,320
Speaker 1: the number one reason why I feel so confident is

791
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 1: that I remember in nineteen eighty nine, following the loss

792
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 1: to Cleveland, I told my buddy, this team is going

793
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:02,720
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl next year. Let's get our season tickets,

794
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,839
Speaker 1: and they did. There was just something special about that team.

795
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:09,359
Speaker 1: And this past year, coming off of last season, I said,

796
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:13,240
Speaker 1: you know, we're so close, and following the Kansas City loss,

797
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:16,840
Speaker 1: I felt that the only thing we really needed on

798
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: this team was pass rush and a tight end, I felt,

799
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 1: and a running back. Well we didn't do that. Well,

800
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,280
Speaker 1: we could just get some in the draft. But Boston

801
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 1: Knox has improved immensely. And I think we shown now

802
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 1: that we can run the ball. I think we've got

803
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:37,600
Speaker 1: a really good offensive line. Our defense has really stuffed

804
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:41,879
Speaker 1: it up. I'm not nervous that we're going to lose

805
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:45,200
Speaker 1: the game. I'm more nervous about turnovers and things like

806
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 1: that that Ken ruin the game for anybody. That's That's

807
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 1: about it. But I do expect the Bills to win

808
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:54,399
Speaker 1: this week. I really do. All Right, Kevin, appreciate the call,

809
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 1: Thanks very much. Yeah. I will say that the one

810
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,520
Speaker 1: thing that the Bill, this Bill's front office and coaching

811
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:04,359
Speaker 1: staff will do is give players time on the job

812
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,720
Speaker 1: to figure it out. Dawson Knox being a perfect example

813
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 1: of that. Ed Oliver probably another example, Devin Singletary, all

814
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:15,200
Speaker 1: thirty year guys, their games did not reach critical mass

815
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:19,439
Speaker 1: until this season, and there are others, you know, I'm sure,

816
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:23,560
Speaker 1: but they give him time to kind of work up

817
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:27,759
Speaker 1: to being a week to week contributor as long as

818
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 1: they see positive signs along the way. This is Josh

819
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 1: Allen's fourth year. Look at his third year. Last year

820
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,560
Speaker 1: he was runner up in the MVP race. But that's

821
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 1: what organizations like Pittsburgh have done for years. You know,

822
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 1: they have guys in the pipeline. They're grooming them, getting

823
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:43,319
Speaker 1: them ready to take on bigger roles when maybe they

824
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:47,160
Speaker 1: don't want to sign somebody to some giant third contract

825
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 1: as a thirty year old. They've got this young guy

826
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,640
Speaker 1: in the pipeline ready to assume that role, fill that role,

827
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:56,480
Speaker 1: and that guy moves on right. They're doing that here

828
00:46:56,520 --> 00:47:00,800
Speaker 1: with this young core. I'll say it again about Dawson Knox.

829
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,799
Speaker 1: I told you so you did. I told I will

830
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 1: give you full marks for that. That's your best whiteboard

831
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:10,600
Speaker 1: declaration that we've had new calendar year. It was just inevitable,

832
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:15,720
Speaker 1: and Devin Singletary to a lesser extent, I was bigger.

833
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:17,239
Speaker 1: I was big on him, but I didn't say the

834
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: same declarations that you did to a lesser extent Devin Singletary,

835
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:23,399
Speaker 1: only because now at the end of his third year

836
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 1: he is. I mean, he made a couple of runs

837
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 1: in that New England game that we're really good, really good,

838
00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:32,480
Speaker 1: and they were difference makers. And I really liked what

839
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:35,880
Speaker 1: the answer we got from Ryan Bates when he was

840
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 1: on the show yesterday when I asked him, you know,

841
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,879
Speaker 1: what's the kind of cross talk and feedback you get

842
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 1: from Devon during a game based on how he's going

843
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:48,440
Speaker 1: to work off of you with respect to the blocking schemes.

844
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 1: And he was talking about how Devin will say, Hey,

845
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 1: with the way these guys are coming at us, I'm

846
00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 1: going to take this thing down hill a little bit

847
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:56,920
Speaker 1: more right now, So just be prepared for that. That helps.

848
00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,440
Speaker 1: That helps you know, it helps the line be more

849
00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,840
Speaker 1: effective they're blocking, and helps him be a more effective

850
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 1: runner in terms of yards per carrying. We've seen that. Well,

851
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:06,760
Speaker 1: it's all working better now, that's for sure. Let's squeeze

852
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 1: in one more before the break. We go to Steve

853
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 1: and Alden. Steve, what do you got for us? Year

854
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:13,920
Speaker 1: on one Bills Live? Hey, guys would agree to time

855
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:18,120
Speaker 1: to be a Bills fan? Huh? Indeed, I'm just loving it,

856
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 1: can't get enough of it. So anyway, just a couple

857
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:22,920
Speaker 1: of notes I wanted to mention, and I think that

858
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 1: the one thing that the Bills have improved. I noticed

859
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:29,840
Speaker 1: in the New England game as if Josh really seemed

860
00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:33,439
Speaker 1: to dial in the long ball. Prior to that game,

861
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:36,320
Speaker 1: he was, he was overthrowing a lot of them, and

862
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,279
Speaker 1: I really think he worked hard on it. That week

863
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:44,080
Speaker 1: and it showed he was dropping dimes and we really

864
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 1: needed to see that. Secondly, I think the obviously we drafted,

865
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,920
Speaker 1: you know, bash him. We're so this year to get

866
00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 1: the pass rush working specifically for the Chiefs, and I

867
00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 1: think that's going to be very telling in this game.

868
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,120
Speaker 1: I really hope that they're able to sustain a little

869
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:06,040
Speaker 1: bit of pressure on Mahomes's He's obviously very well known

870
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,719
Speaker 1: for evading. But um, I think we have the speed

871
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 1: on this team. And as Jordan Poyer said this week,

872
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 1: the communication on the defense is key. UM. Without Trey

873
00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 1: White out there, everybody needs to be talking. And I

874
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:21,360
Speaker 1: think the previous caller alluded to the you know, the

875
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:23,719
Speaker 1: propensity for turnovers to change the game, and I think

876
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 1: that'll be the that'll be the telling factor in this one.

877
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 1: I agree that the Bills are going to win this Um,

878
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,800
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be close. But um, I

879
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,600
Speaker 1: think these guys have it going on all cylinders. I'm

880
00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: really thrilled with the way Bates and Phillips have stepped

881
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 1: up this year. And then, UM, the key with Kansas

882
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:44,120
Speaker 1: City is the is the trick plays those shuttle passes.

883
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:46,400
Speaker 1: I mean last week they had the what was it

884
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 1: the tackle release to Ready or whatever his name, must

885
00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:55,359
Speaker 1: very very crafty offense and that defense just really has

886
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,680
Speaker 1: to be, you know, on their toes. All right, Steve,

887
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:01,799
Speaker 1: thanks for the call. It was a very comprehensive analysis

888
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:05,320
Speaker 1: of the game there. And we have to take a

889
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,920
Speaker 1: break here because when we return, it's time for us

890
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:10,440
Speaker 1: to be joined by the Hall of Famer Thurman Thomas

891
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:14,480
Speaker 1: going to weigh in on this Bill's Chiefs matchup. We'll

892
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:16,520
Speaker 1: do that with Thurm when we return here. On one

893
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:18,880
Speaker 1: Bill's line presented by Collid of Health. It's Buffalo Bill's

894
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:39,600
Speaker 1: Radio at a Steve Tasker who has been all over

895
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:41,400
Speaker 1: the fields. Kind of unique. He was kind of a

896
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,880
Speaker 1: dual role players for you. Steed of a lily, Steed

897
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 1: a blimp. We're not even in the stratgyre of normalcy.

898
00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:57,360
Speaker 1: Pro Football Hall of Famers. Jim Kelly and Hermant Thomas.

899
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:06,799
Speaker 1: All right, let's get this party started. What is It's

900
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:36,200
Speaker 1: just like fash f helo all right here else right here, right, Mike,

901
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:43,640
Speaker 1: not to say anything, Holy mackerel, the place was going bananas.

902
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:46,720
Speaker 1: All we needed was Mariano Rivera. After they started ripping

903
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:51,799
Speaker 1: Metallica off there. My goodness, that was unbelievable. Therm. Did

904
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 1: you know you were getting a smooch at the end?

905
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:57,719
Speaker 1: Was that planned? What the heck was that? Oh? Yeah,

906
00:51:57,800 --> 00:51:59,759
Speaker 1: Jim told Yeah, we told us that we'd hug and

907
00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 1: get a little smooch after that. Was that was all plan.

908
00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:06,799
Speaker 1: But you know what though, we do that all the time,

909
00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:09,359
Speaker 1: so it was nothing really new. We got to work

910
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:11,279
Speaker 1: on Jim's Miike drop. I think Steve's gonna have to

911
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:13,759
Speaker 1: give him lessons on that one. I'll tell you what though. Yeah,

912
00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 1: I just hope, I hope that I never get to

913
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 1: the point where I take that scene for granted, because man,

914
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:25,800
Speaker 1: there is there's absolutely nothing like it. There is nothing

915
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:30,120
Speaker 1: like it. Yeah, I mean I was. You know, I've

916
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,080
Speaker 1: been down on the field where a couple of guys

917
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,719
Speaker 1: have done it before. Man, but I tell you what,

918
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 1: it's it's totally different when it does from one o'clock

919
00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:40,800
Speaker 1: in the afternoon to at eight o'clock at night and

920
00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 1: taking the place was electrified. It was outstanding. Man. He

921
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 1: gave He gave me chills just walking out there on

922
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 1: the field. Even before we did, you know our little

923
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,200
Speaker 1: chant that Mark Dow and uh, and I mean it was.

924
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,359
Speaker 1: It was fantastic to have you know, Will Wolford there,

925
00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:05,319
Speaker 1: Brandon's spikes, uh, Bruise Darrel was pheno I think too.

926
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:08,319
Speaker 1: And I've been when working for CBS for a couple

927
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:11,600
Speaker 1: of decades like I did, and getting a chance to

928
00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:15,360
Speaker 1: see other teams and other games and other pregame rituals

929
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:19,839
Speaker 1: that other teams have. There's it's pretty unique. I will

930
00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 1: say that is very unique. Now they all have some

931
00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:27,000
Speaker 1: like Carolina used to have a guy beating a drum um. Uh.

932
00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:30,960
Speaker 1: Seattle has one a legend, an iconic legend who raises

933
00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:33,320
Speaker 1: the twelfth Man flag at the top of their stadium.

934
00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: That's very nice. Um. But it adds something. The Bills

935
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:42,359
Speaker 1: one's unique because the fans are on it. They are

936
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 1: there are you can't you can't mess it up. The

937
00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 1: fans carry it along, right, I mean, they got it

938
00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:52,040
Speaker 1: and that's pretty unique, and I think it's pretty cool. Yeah,

939
00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:55,160
Speaker 1: And I think that's what you know, I think when

940
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 1: you talk about traditions around the National Football League, even

941
00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:00,800
Speaker 1: though this is our second year only doing this, I

942
00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:02,719
Speaker 1: think if you know, if Steve, you know, if you've

943
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:05,520
Speaker 1: been in Kansas City when they see the national athem

944
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:08,799
Speaker 1: at the end, the whole stadium says the Chiefs. Yeah right,

945
00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 1: And instead of the Home of the Brave, it's the

946
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:13,160
Speaker 1: home of the Chiefs, It's the home of the chief

947
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:16,960
Speaker 1: exactly right. So I think this is a great tradition

948
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:21,319
Speaker 1: and something that the Bills should keep doing. But I guess,

949
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,120
Speaker 1: you know, along with that, it's a lot better to

950
00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:28,160
Speaker 1: do it when you're winning now. Now, was skipping out

951
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,480
Speaker 1: to the gritty at the end part of the rehearsed

952
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:32,920
Speaker 1: segment there or were you just freezing your tail off

953
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:36,439
Speaker 1: and wanted to just get moving a little bit of both.

954
00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:41,880
Speaker 1: I had a little bit of both. I did not

955
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:45,279
Speaker 1: see the opening kickoff. After I did my part, I

956
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 1: was out of there, and my son and my family

957
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 1: talked about it me doing it, and so, I mean,

958
00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:54,360
Speaker 1: I've seen guys do it before, and the guy that

959
00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:57,520
Speaker 1: always he does it is Justin Jefferson plays for the

960
00:54:57,560 --> 00:54:59,919
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings. I guess him and the guy who made

961
00:55:00,360 --> 00:55:02,360
Speaker 1: who made this up for really good friends. And so

962
00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 1: you know what, I was like, I think I can

963
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,919
Speaker 1: do it, and I only practice it like one time,

964
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 1: and that was like Friday night. I practiced it Friday

965
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:14,839
Speaker 1: night I did it. I was like, okay, I did

966
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:16,520
Speaker 1: it a couple of times, like I think I got it.

967
00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:19,280
Speaker 1: So when I got on the field, man and it happened,

968
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:20,919
Speaker 1: it just came out of it me. I was ready

969
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:24,040
Speaker 1: to go. I did it, and hey, look and I'm

970
00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:27,080
Speaker 1: glad I did it. Looks good many if the kids,

971
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:29,920
Speaker 1: if the kids approved, you know, you nailed it so firm.

972
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:33,560
Speaker 1: Have you ever seen have you ever seen a Bill's offense?

973
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:36,879
Speaker 1: I mean when you played on like the K gun

974
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 1: and all that, you in the middle. We were in

975
00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:40,760
Speaker 1: fifty one to three and all that. Even the fifty

976
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:47,319
Speaker 1: one to three game, we punted twice, right right, Yeah,

977
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:51,279
Speaker 1: that was pretty special. The other night, Yeah, yeah, it was.

978
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the only game that I can

979
00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:56,400
Speaker 1: kind of compare it too. But you know, it wasn't

980
00:55:56,640 --> 00:56:00,640
Speaker 1: This game against the Patriots wasn't as closed the no

981
00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:03,319
Speaker 1: punt game against the San Francisco For the now, we're

982
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:04,880
Speaker 1: just going up and down the field, you know. So

983
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,480
Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like that before. Obviously, Josh and

984
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:13,480
Speaker 1: the offense were on fire. New England didn't have not

985
00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:16,560
Speaker 1: one answer for them. And I'm still up here surprised

986
00:56:16,600 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 1: and see how this how did they score seventeen points,

987
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 1: because I don't even think they should have got seventeen points.

988
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:23,319
Speaker 1: They should have been probably been a shutout. I mean,

989
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:25,600
Speaker 1: these guys have really come together at the end of

990
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,280
Speaker 1: the year and they're starting to play really good football

991
00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:32,319
Speaker 1: at the right time, especially on defense. I think going

992
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,560
Speaker 1: into this Kansas City game, I think it's going to

993
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:36,640
Speaker 1: have to be that. Now. You might not score on

994
00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:38,560
Speaker 1: every possession, but I think, you know, you need to

995
00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:41,239
Speaker 1: get first downs, you need and you need to get touchdowns.

996
00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:44,200
Speaker 1: The Bills need to move the ball, excuse me, and

997
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:46,680
Speaker 1: I hopefully you know they can come out of the

998
00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,840
Speaker 1: fast start. I think if you if you get Kansas

999
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:52,520
Speaker 1: City behind, all of a sudden, you know they're gonna

1000
00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:54,800
Speaker 1: start pressing. They're gonna try to start doing something that

1001
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:57,080
Speaker 1: they're not capable of doing. But when you look at

1002
00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:59,840
Speaker 1: the flip side of that, they haven't been an explosive

1003
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:03,080
Speaker 1: if they have been all season from what I look at.

1004
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:04,920
Speaker 1: You know, they make a lot of penalties, They have

1005
00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 1: some a lot of turnovers this year that they've had

1006
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:10,600
Speaker 1: in the past couple of years. So you know, you

1007
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,040
Speaker 1: get them behind and get that offense gone and let

1008
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:15,719
Speaker 1: that defense work man. So I'm really looking forward to

1009
00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:18,600
Speaker 1: this game, and I feel good about our chances. I

1010
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:21,600
Speaker 1: feel really good about our chances. Slow starts have been

1011
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,200
Speaker 1: the bugaboo for the Chief self late, and that happened

1012
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:28,400
Speaker 1: again last week against the Steelers, team that I think

1013
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,160
Speaker 1: most of would agree just doesn't measure up to what

1014
00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:34,360
Speaker 1: the Bills can provide. But then they still flip the

1015
00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:37,240
Speaker 1: switch therm. I mean, they score five touchdowns in eleven

1016
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 1: and a half minutes of game clock. This is the

1017
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:44,080
Speaker 1: number one defense from Buffalo coming into town now, so

1018
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 1: that should make a difference. To what degree though, do

1019
00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:53,920
Speaker 1: you think they can slow that Chief's offense down? Oh? Man,

1020
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:57,000
Speaker 1: that's that's and I don't think we're gonna find out

1021
00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:00,400
Speaker 1: until the game starts, Man's. And that's a scary report

1022
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,720
Speaker 1: about it, because you know, I think after what four

1023
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:04,800
Speaker 1: or five games, we were kind of writing the Chiefs off,

1024
00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:07,320
Speaker 1: or not writing them off. But they want the explosive

1025
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:10,320
Speaker 1: Chiefs that they that we've known them over the past

1026
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:15,200
Speaker 1: two or three years, I think, Man, I think turnovers.

1027
00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:17,840
Speaker 1: I think that's one of the things that Kansas City

1028
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:19,880
Speaker 1: has stopped doing. That you can remember in Week five,

1029
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:24,120
Speaker 1: Torek Hill should have caught a pass and Michael High

1030
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:26,800
Speaker 1: intercepted and ran it back for a touchdown. So I think,

1031
00:58:26,960 --> 00:58:29,960
Speaker 1: you know, as the season went along, I don't think

1032
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,280
Speaker 1: you saw that as much from the Kansas City Chiefs

1033
00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:36,680
Speaker 1: making those type of mistakes. And if you really look

1034
00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:39,800
Speaker 1: at them, I think this year they've had more long

1035
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:43,520
Speaker 1: drives for touchdowns or field goals or something of that

1036
00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:47,120
Speaker 1: nature than they have been the explosive place. So, you

1037
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:51,280
Speaker 1: know what, it still amazes me how great this this

1038
00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:55,360
Speaker 1: defense has been throughout the year. And we lost Trey White.

1039
00:58:55,880 --> 00:58:58,120
Speaker 1: I mean you got to give Leslie Fraser and Sean

1040
00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:01,520
Speaker 1: McDermot credit, man, and really Michael Hyde and Jordan Party

1041
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:05,200
Speaker 1: for keeping that secondary together. Man, Levy Wallace has played better.

1042
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:07,480
Speaker 1: I mean it has been up and down, and and

1043
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:10,120
Speaker 1: I think we got the best slot cover man in

1044
00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 1: the National Football League. And so but you know what

1045
00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:17,000
Speaker 1: you're going against this Kansas City team who has speed

1046
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:20,280
Speaker 1: on the outside, and obviously Kelsey is getting kind of

1047
00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:22,160
Speaker 1: back in the form it has been in the forum.

1048
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:25,600
Speaker 1: So I always go back to what Bruce always says,

1049
00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:27,680
Speaker 1: it's about that pass rush man, and what can you

1050
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:30,560
Speaker 1: do to shake up my hose and obviously the Chiefs

1051
00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 1: are gonna have to do the same thing for Josh Holler.

1052
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 1: And it seems to me that this game is gonna

1053
00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:38,120
Speaker 1: come down to offensively. I'm with you. I think you're

1054
00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:40,600
Speaker 1: gonna have to score. You gotta get point, you gotta

1055
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:42,640
Speaker 1: go for it. I told Brownie, I think the fifties

1056
00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:44,920
Speaker 1: the line of demarcation. If it's fourth in less than

1057
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:48,520
Speaker 1: four or five or three, go just keep going for it.

1058
00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:52,959
Speaker 1: And it's four down territory anything past the fifty yard line,

1059
00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 1: and that's offensively speaking. Defensively, I think you keep a

1060
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,920
Speaker 1: lid on him as best you can and just try

1061
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:05,000
Speaker 1: and make a handful of plays. Tipped pass on a

1062
01:00:05,120 --> 01:00:09,920
Speaker 1: third and long, you know, tipped interception, you know, a

1063
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:12,240
Speaker 1: nice sack or whatever cover them up, or get a

1064
01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:14,640
Speaker 1: batted ball at the line of scrimmage, something to get

1065
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:17,320
Speaker 1: them off the field on a third down where they

1066
01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:19,800
Speaker 1: don't go for it, or get them off the field

1067
01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:21,360
Speaker 1: and the fourth down, or a tipped interception or a

1068
01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:24,040
Speaker 1: fumble or strip sack, something like that. Just make a

1069
01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:28,000
Speaker 1: handful of those plays, like four of those plays throughout

1070
01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:31,680
Speaker 1: the game, and that's what's gonna take. You gotta score

1071
01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:35,120
Speaker 1: with them and then get maybe an extra possession or two,

1072
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:37,400
Speaker 1: and that gives you a chance to win this game.

1073
01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:38,760
Speaker 1: I think, guess what this game is gonna look like

1074
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:42,960
Speaker 1: on both for both teams. Yeah, yeah, it's it's very

1075
01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:46,320
Speaker 1: similar what you're talking about when you're talking about the

1076
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:49,240
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs. I mean, where

1077
01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:52,439
Speaker 1: you look at Kansas City's defense, they have really picked

1078
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:55,080
Speaker 1: it up the last part of the season. And you know,

1079
01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:59,400
Speaker 1: I totally forgot that they have Melvin mel Ingram on

1080
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:02,640
Speaker 1: their side football. I totally forgot about that trade until

1081
01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:04,880
Speaker 1: I just saw it, you know, a couple of weeks ago.

1082
01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:08,560
Speaker 1: So uh, you know, these offensive playing very very well.

1083
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:14,560
Speaker 1: Clark is back, uh and Jones for Kansas City. So um, yeah,

1084
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,960
Speaker 1: it's gonna be coming down to, you know, who makes

1085
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 1: the least amount of mistakes man, And I, like you said,

1086
01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:23,160
Speaker 1: I expect to be a high scoring game. Um, but

1087
01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:26,600
Speaker 1: let's throw something else out there too. I mean, I

1088
01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:28,760
Speaker 1: think we have a pretty damn good kicker and Tyler

1089
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:31,880
Speaker 1: bass Um and obviously I don't even know who their

1090
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,240
Speaker 1: kicker is. But but it could come down, it could

1091
01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:37,400
Speaker 1: come down to special teams. And I'm good with our

1092
01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:41,280
Speaker 1: guys that we have. Man, we played really good on

1093
01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:46,320
Speaker 1: special teams all season long. Sarrand O'Neill has been I'm

1094
01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:51,160
Speaker 1: standing on special teams and Jones and uh, you know what,

1095
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:53,919
Speaker 1: maybe a special team play really breaks this game open.

1096
01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 1: And if you talk about that, I think the advantage

1097
01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:58,200
Speaker 1: goes to the Buffalo building. Yeah, they got a turnover

1098
01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:01,280
Speaker 1: on in the last game on a kicker turn sirand

1099
01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:04,240
Speaker 1: Neil at the Forest fumble and Andre Smith jumped on it.

1100
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,840
Speaker 1: In the Week five game against the Chiefs, Harrison Butker

1101
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:10,160
Speaker 1: by the way, Thuram is their kicker and he is very,

1102
01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:15,880
Speaker 1: very very good. Yeah, he's got a big leg. He

1103
01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:18,400
Speaker 1: was the guy. He was the guy that beat the

1104
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:22,440
Speaker 1: Chargers in overtime last year with a fifty eight yarder

1105
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:24,680
Speaker 1: that he had to hit twice because they tried to

1106
01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:26,560
Speaker 1: ice him with the whole time out things. And he's

1107
01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:28,560
Speaker 1: got he's got a leg on him for sure. I

1108
01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:30,760
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you this because if you want to

1109
01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 1: look at the biggest difference for me between the Patriots

1110
01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:38,120
Speaker 1: and the Chiefs with respect to the front seven, the

1111
01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:42,240
Speaker 1: Chiefs have two very athletic linebackers in Willie Gay and

1112
01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:46,720
Speaker 1: the rookie Nick Bolton, and they just played a Patriots

1113
01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:49,120
Speaker 1: team with maybe two of the slowest linebackers in football.

1114
01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:53,000
Speaker 1: How does that change? How does that change the dynamics

1115
01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:57,680
Speaker 1: of Buffalo's passing game in terms of perhaps reducing their

1116
01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:01,120
Speaker 1: options at the second level knowing the ground that those

1117
01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:04,760
Speaker 1: two can cover. Well, yeah, I mean when you talk

1118
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:07,440
Speaker 1: about those two linebackers, obviously the first person that comes

1119
01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:09,720
Speaker 1: to my mind is Dawson Knox. How is he going

1120
01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:13,400
Speaker 1: to perform when he has guys that are not as

1121
01:03:13,520 --> 01:03:17,480
Speaker 1: physical but with the athletic ability that they have. You know,

1122
01:03:18,120 --> 01:03:21,120
Speaker 1: will Dawson not be able to pull away from those

1123
01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:23,280
Speaker 1: guys if you're running a pass pattern or even if

1124
01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:25,959
Speaker 1: he's blocking. But I think also on the flip side

1125
01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:28,880
Speaker 1: of that too, is that you know, now you get

1126
01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:31,280
Speaker 1: an opportunity if it's man coverage or what have you

1127
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 1: on the three wide receivers and tight end. You know,

1128
01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:36,720
Speaker 1: how is that going to play out with Mike Singwood,

1129
01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:41,919
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary or Zack Marson the backfield? You know, those

1130
01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:45,360
Speaker 1: little checkdowns that we always talk about are so important

1131
01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:47,400
Speaker 1: in playoff games, you know, I mean, it's better to

1132
01:03:47,480 --> 01:03:50,000
Speaker 1: be what second and four than to be second and

1133
01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:53,160
Speaker 1: ten and just by throwing a little check down. So

1134
01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:56,240
Speaker 1: I'm really anxious to see, you know, how that matchup

1135
01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:59,920
Speaker 1: is going to play. So you know, speed and speed.

1136
01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:02,640
Speaker 1: You know, we have Singletary. He has been playing well

1137
01:04:02,720 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 1: the past month and uh, and I expect him to

1138
01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:08,920
Speaker 1: continue to play well. Yes, they do have some athletic

1139
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:12,880
Speaker 1: linebackers that are that have very good speed. But you

1140
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:16,720
Speaker 1: know what, Chris, sometimes those linebackers, man, they overplay stuff

1141
01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:18,960
Speaker 1: a lot and that's where the cutback is going to happen.

1142
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:21,520
Speaker 1: And h I expect Secretary to keep doing what he's

1143
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:23,520
Speaker 1: been doing over the past month. They are fast and

1144
01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:25,880
Speaker 1: flowing guys, and they will overpursue it here. What do

1145
01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,000
Speaker 1: you think that generally speaking, what do you think is

1146
01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:30,120
Speaker 1: the handle for the Bills to use it? What to

1147
01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:32,720
Speaker 1: use his motivation? You think it's still the loss in

1148
01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 1: the ABC Championship a year ago? And if so, what

1149
01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:37,400
Speaker 1: about the Chiefs what do they use to dredge up

1150
01:04:37,480 --> 01:04:42,040
Speaker 1: some passion about beating the Buffalo Bills? Well, I mean

1151
01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:44,840
Speaker 1: they're on one against some this year and it was

1152
01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:50,920
Speaker 1: at home, and so that right there is the pressure

1153
01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:54,520
Speaker 1: for Kansas City and and hours is exactly what you said.

1154
01:04:54,560 --> 01:04:56,960
Speaker 1: I just what's yesterday and just bought me a Stefan

1155
01:04:57,080 --> 01:05:00,640
Speaker 1: Diggs jersey because I'm aware of where it w Bill's play.

1156
01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:03,800
Speaker 1: I haven't worn this jersey all year long or last year,

1157
01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:06,840
Speaker 1: and he was the last photo shot that I saw

1158
01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:12,120
Speaker 1: facing the Kansas City cheese after they were celebrating when

1159
01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:14,400
Speaker 1: a THENFC championship been going to the Super Bowl. So

1160
01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:18,520
Speaker 1: I expect him to have a big game. I think

1161
01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:21,120
Speaker 1: these guys are ready. I think they ought to prove

1162
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:24,000
Speaker 1: a point. You know, they started off the year being

1163
01:05:24,360 --> 01:05:26,480
Speaker 1: kind of like Super Bowl favorites when when they were

1164
01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:29,280
Speaker 1: like what five and one maybe and everybody was patting

1165
01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:31,320
Speaker 1: them on the back and everything that then went through

1166
01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:33,800
Speaker 1: that up and down season. But I think right now,

1167
01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:37,040
Speaker 1: these after beating the Patriots the way that they did,

1168
01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,560
Speaker 1: they know that they're a damn good football team, and

1169
01:05:39,800 --> 01:05:43,520
Speaker 1: they know that this road has always led in the

1170
01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:46,640
Speaker 1: past two years going through Kansas City, whether it's at

1171
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:49,640
Speaker 1: home or away, and these guys are road warriors, man.

1172
01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:51,800
Speaker 1: I think they have a great opportunity to pull this off.

1173
01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:55,520
Speaker 1: We're about fifteen minutes in talking here with you, and

1174
01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:58,400
Speaker 1: I did not mention to you too that this game

1175
01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:02,200
Speaker 1: is going to take place on the anniversary of the

1176
01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:06,080
Speaker 1: AFC title game that was played here between you guys

1177
01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:10,640
Speaker 1: and the Joe Montana Chiefs, same exact day, the anniversary day,

1178
01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:14,120
Speaker 1: which you guys obviously, yeah, you guys obviously won thirty

1179
01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:17,640
Speaker 1: to thirteen. How good do we feel about the karma there?

1180
01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:21,200
Speaker 1: And then after that therm? I need to know what

1181
01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:23,960
Speaker 1: the heck got into you on the podium after that one,

1182
01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:26,840
Speaker 1: because that was probably about as hot as I'd ever

1183
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:30,080
Speaker 1: seen your run after a game at the podium addressing

1184
01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:34,080
Speaker 1: the media, because I think you had had some doubters

1185
01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:35,960
Speaker 1: that said you guys were over and done with and

1186
01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:38,560
Speaker 1: then you dropped thirty on the Chiefs and knocked Joe

1187
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 1: Montana out of the game. Yeah, I think at that point, Brownie,

1188
01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:45,160
Speaker 1: you know, everybody had written us off, a bunch of

1189
01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:48,560
Speaker 1: old guys. You know, he can't beat Montana. I was,

1190
01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:51,000
Speaker 1: you know, they had Marcus Allen at that time too,

1191
01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:54,440
Speaker 1: and so yeah, I mean we had been for three

1192
01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:57,960
Speaker 1: Super Bowls in a row, and and rightfully so a

1193
01:06:58,040 --> 01:07:00,080
Speaker 1: lot of people around the country didn't want us to

1194
01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:04,400
Speaker 1: be back into the Super Bowl. And so yeah, we

1195
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:08,720
Speaker 1: were very motivated and and me personally, I had heard

1196
01:07:08,760 --> 01:07:11,400
Speaker 1: some things like, you know, he's not the back that

1197
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:13,919
Speaker 1: he used to. He can't carry this offense, he can't

1198
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:17,280
Speaker 1: do this, he can't do this anymore. He's he's worn down.

1199
01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:23,000
Speaker 1: He's not capable of taking over a game anymore. And

1200
01:07:23,240 --> 01:07:26,560
Speaker 1: I can remember, before I went out on the football field,

1201
01:07:27,120 --> 01:07:31,040
Speaker 1: my former coach rest in Peace, Elijah Pitt said, you

1202
01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:35,240
Speaker 1: know what, I can't use the words that he said

1203
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:39,960
Speaker 1: to me that day, but it was definitely motivational for

1204
01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:42,760
Speaker 1: me to go out and every game because he had

1205
01:07:42,840 --> 01:07:45,320
Speaker 1: said I heard the same thing too, that you don't

1206
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:48,280
Speaker 1: have it anymore, that you run out of gas. And obviously,

1207
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:50,760
Speaker 1: going into my fourth or fifth year or whatever it

1208
01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:52,960
Speaker 1: might be, carrying the ball and catching the ball that

1209
01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:56,440
Speaker 1: many time, sure, yeah, your body's tied, but mentally you

1210
01:07:56,640 --> 01:07:58,440
Speaker 1: know that you're there, that you know that you can

1211
01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:02,280
Speaker 1: still do it. And and I don't take any credit

1212
01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:04,400
Speaker 1: for that game. I give it to the officive line.

1213
01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:10,280

Speaker 1: Derek Thomas so much that at the end of the

1215
01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:14,480
Speaker 1: game he wasn't even nowhere to be found, but he

1216
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:16,599
Speaker 1: was found, but he was on the sidelines I mean

1217
01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:19,559

Speaker 1: to have you just want to be great to have

1254
01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:13,160
Speaker 1: the championship game in Buffalo. I feel I think I

1255
01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:15,680
Speaker 1: still think any any one of these four teams are

1256
01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:18,519
Speaker 1: really good and uh these both these games could go

1257
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:23,400
Speaker 1: either direction. But yeah, it's all yeah, it could happen.

1258
01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:26,200
Speaker 1: There's no question about it could, and in fact, I

1259
01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:29,960
Speaker 1: think it's like a coin flip. All right, guys, all right,

1268
01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:06,519
Speaker 1: James Lofton, Marv Levy. I don't know why, but that

1269
01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:09,240
Speaker 1: Marty shot in higher postgame presscom it's still stick. He

1270
01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:13,880
Speaker 1: was still running hot after the game, James fifteen minutes over.

1271
01:11:14,040 --> 01:11:19,880
Speaker 1: That guy was was brilliant at dredging up passion. Oh

1272
01:11:20,080 --> 01:11:21,640
Speaker 1: you didn't, he didn't have to dredge it up. You

1273
01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:23,280
Speaker 1: say one thing to him. He's ready to go. But

1274
01:11:23,360 --> 01:11:25,559
Speaker 1: that's just it though. I mean, you could say, gosh, Thurham,

1275
01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:27,360
Speaker 1: you look great today, and that was it. He would

1276
01:11:27,479 --> 01:11:29,920
Speaker 1: spin it somehow to make it sound like you insulted him.

1277
01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:32,560
Speaker 1: Like no, no, I mean you look great. Yeah, what

1278
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:35,600
Speaker 1: do you mean? Look, what's that supposed to me? It's unbelievable.

1279
01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:39,040
Speaker 1: He was crazy, absolutely insane. There was an article in

1280
01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:41,680
Speaker 1: right before the Super Bowl that said Thurman Thomas is

1281
01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:44,360
Speaker 1: the greatest all around running back in the National Football League.

1282
01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:49,439
Speaker 1: He could not have been more angry. He couldn't been

1283
01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:52,120
Speaker 1: more angry. He blew off the whole day of media

1284
01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:54,280
Speaker 1: because of that article that said he was the greatest

1285
01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:58,200
Speaker 1: all around running back in the NFL. You tell me

1286
01:11:58,760 --> 01:12:04,160
Speaker 1: that's not mental brilliant, it's right there. Why they have

1287
01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:06,519
Speaker 1: to say all around? Why couldn't they just say best

1288
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:12,120
Speaker 1: running back? Yeah? Yes, it all wrong. Again, it was brilliant.

1289
01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:17,160
Speaker 1: He was hot. He was hot because they called him

1290
01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:23,920
Speaker 1: the greatest all around running back in the NFL. Oh Man, absolutely,

1291
01:12:24,439 --> 01:12:30,080
Speaker 1: he is absolutely legendary, legendary, and he does it pretty good, gritty.

1292
01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:33,120
Speaker 1: So there it is. Does We will take a break here,

1293
01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:37,280
Speaker 1: and when we come back, we'll get some player comments

1294
01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:41,479
Speaker 1: to you from the press conferences today, as they addressed

1295
01:12:41,520 --> 01:12:45,320
Speaker 1: the media after Thursday's practice, I believe we have Dion

1296
01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:48,559
Speaker 1: Dawkins on deck next, so we'll hear from him after

1297
01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:51,080
Speaker 1: the break here. On one Bill's Live, presented by collid

1298
01:12:51,080 --> 01:13:08,000
Speaker 1: to Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right, welcome back

1299
01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:10,600
Speaker 1: to One Bill's Live. Chris Brown, Steve Cassier with you.

1300
01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:13,160
Speaker 1: Want to get some comments from the players out to

1301
01:13:13,320 --> 01:13:17,720
Speaker 1: you as they addressed the media after practice. Today was

1302
01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:21,920
Speaker 1: a walkthrough session today, that's our understanding. Thursday injury report

1303
01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:26,839
Speaker 1: is out as well, and it's identical to that of yesterday.

1304
01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:29,479
Speaker 1: Mario Addison the only player listed on the injury report.

1305
01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:32,040
Speaker 1: He was limited again for a second straight day with

1306
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:35,880
Speaker 1: that shoulder injury. If we get the Chiefs Thursday injury

1307
01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:38,559
Speaker 1: report before we're off the air, we'll pass that along

1308
01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:40,040
Speaker 1: to you, but keep in mind they are an hour

1309
01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:43,880
Speaker 1: behind us on Central Time. But right now we want

1310
01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:46,439
Speaker 1: to bring you the comments of one Dion Dawkins, who

1311
01:13:46,520 --> 01:13:51,120
Speaker 1: addressed the media just a short time ago. What kind

1312
01:13:51,160 --> 01:13:53,280
Speaker 1: of a challenge is Chris Jones. I mean, I know,

1313
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:56,760
Speaker 1: obviously you know a huge challenge, but maybe you know specifically,

1314
01:13:56,920 --> 01:14:00,519
Speaker 1: what kind of makes him that guy that's so dangerous,

1315
01:14:00,520 --> 01:14:02,880
Speaker 1: you know, both against the run, against the past. Well,

1316
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:06,800
Speaker 1: he's he's a great uh NFL player, you know. Uh

1317
01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:14,240
Speaker 1: He's he's extremely active, fast, strong, knows ball, knows how

1318
01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:16,880
Speaker 1: to turn it on, knows how to how to temper

1319
01:14:16,960 --> 01:14:20,400
Speaker 1: it to his to his game speed, and he's been

1320
01:14:20,439 --> 01:14:23,760
Speaker 1: doing it for a while now. So um, and he

1321
01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:28,160
Speaker 1: has the respect of us, and he has the respect

1322
01:14:28,320 --> 01:14:32,679
Speaker 1: of the NFL. So and like anybody that that has

1323
01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:39,680
Speaker 1: that type of uh aura, I would say, it's just

1324
01:14:40,439 --> 01:14:43,479
Speaker 1: it's just a different deal. You know, you talked last

1325
01:14:43,520 --> 01:14:46,920
Speaker 1: week about momentum being more of a confidence thing. You

1326
01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:49,240
Speaker 1: play well, you feel good. The next week it seemed

1327
01:14:49,280 --> 01:14:52,360
Speaker 1: like hero line, you know, the offense had that perfect game.

1328
01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:55,080
Speaker 1: It felt like you guys were as on point, I

1329
01:14:55,120 --> 01:14:57,679
Speaker 1: think as I've ever seen your executing, you know, making

1330
01:14:57,720 --> 01:14:59,960
Speaker 1: blocks the way you should. What's the level of confidence

1331
01:15:00,040 --> 01:15:06,519
Speaker 1: that room right now? If everybody literally and uh, it's

1332
01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:12,280
Speaker 1: just us because um, the world dropped us, you know,

1333
01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:16,400
Speaker 1: the world dropped us on our head and and uh

1334
01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:20,640
Speaker 1: it was just us that could pick eat each other up.

1335
01:15:20,720 --> 01:15:24,439
Speaker 1: And uh and we we as a unit know that.

1336
01:15:24,680 --> 01:15:30,560
Speaker 1: So it's literally just no disrespect, but it's just everybody

1337
01:15:30,640 --> 01:15:34,479
Speaker 1: and just focus on on ourselves, like like we don't

1338
01:15:34,520 --> 01:15:37,880
Speaker 1: need anybody to to tell us that, and we're good

1339
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:40,479
Speaker 1: and that oh and we're doing a good job anymore

1340
01:15:40,960 --> 01:15:43,040
Speaker 1: it's all us Like, I'm gonna tell Mitch that Mitch

Speaker 1: keep going around in a in a big circle and

1345
01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:58,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna continue to just pick each other up and

1346
01:15:58,479 --> 01:16:02,439

1355
01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:36,080
Speaker 1: of physicality up front. How does this old line unit

01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:55,639
Speaker 1: understand that they're at a different caliber than a lot

1362
01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:59,759
Speaker 1: of you know, like organizations and a lot of players,

1363
01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:03,320
Speaker 1: Like they got the whole thing done. And we understand that.

1364
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:05,800
Speaker 1: And with us knowing that, we just have to do

1365
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:09,240
Speaker 1: what we do well, and that's just play our style

1366
01:17:09,360 --> 01:17:11,679
Speaker 1: of ball. We just have to work, we have to outwork,

1367
01:17:11,720 --> 01:17:13,479
Speaker 1: we have to run around, we have to just be us.

1368
01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:16,960
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what we're gonna do. We're just gonna

1369
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:20,479
Speaker 1: be us and the chips will fall. How However, the

1370
01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:24,200
Speaker 1: chips got a fall, right, man. So how does this

1371
01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:27,679
Speaker 1: team go into Arrowhead and get the job done? Focus

1372
01:17:27,760 --> 01:17:31,720
Speaker 1: on ourselves move literally, um, focus on our self with

1373
01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:34,760
Speaker 1: the with our foot on the gas pedal and the

1374
01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:38,240
Speaker 1: foot on our gas pedal to fueling us and uh,

1375
01:17:38,520 --> 01:17:42,040
Speaker 1: focus on on us and keeping everybody energized and and

1376
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:45,800
Speaker 1: keeping Josh clean. And it's about it, you know, like

1377
01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:49,320
Speaker 1: we give Josh time, Josh does what Josh does, and

1378
01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:52,040
Speaker 1: then Josh and becomes one of the best players to

1379
01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:55,320
Speaker 1: ever do it. Keeping clean. Before I let you go, Dan,

1380
01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:58,479
Speaker 1: how important is it to maintain that that balance? You know,

1381
01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:02,840
Speaker 1: that balance aggressive attack within the offense. Say it again,

1382
01:18:03,040 --> 01:18:06,839
Speaker 1: the balance with what how important is it to maintain

1383
01:18:06,960 --> 01:18:09,040
Speaker 1: that balance attack the same way you came out against

1384
01:18:09,080 --> 01:18:13,479
Speaker 1: New England. I mean it's it's important, um because obviously

1385
01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:19,400
Speaker 1: with that type of um, you know energy, it worked.

1386
01:18:19,640 --> 01:18:24,519
Speaker 1: So if we could just tap into that working uh system,

1387
01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:28,080
Speaker 1: then you know, the rest is a special day. So

1388
01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:31,439
Speaker 1: as long as just we could just grab a little

1389
01:18:31,439 --> 01:18:34,560
Speaker 1: bit of what we took from the Pages game, a

1390
01:18:34,640 --> 01:18:36,559
Speaker 1: little bit like from the Jets, a little bit from

1391
01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:40,320
Speaker 1: all of the games that we've won, you know, it'll

1392
01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:44,640
Speaker 1: it'll be It'll be bills absolutely, man save travels and

1393

01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:52,519
Speaker 1: see you. How you doing? So say, what is it

1395
01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:54,639
Speaker 1: about Josh Allen that makes the whole team just want

1396
01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:58,040
Speaker 1: to run through a wall? Forum? Shoot, I guess the

1397
01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:01,160
Speaker 1: question is what isn't it about Josh Allen? You know,

1398
01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:05,240
Speaker 1: Josh's Josh's Josh, you know, and uh, when I say

1399
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:08,640
Speaker 1: Josh's Josh, he is his own person, Like he's a

1400
01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:13,080
Speaker 1: big kid just having fun and uh, A lot of

1401
01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:15,840
Speaker 1: people don't really like realize that. But but he does

1402
01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:20,559
Speaker 1: a great job of of you know, taking it serious

1403
01:19:20,600 --> 01:19:25,120
Speaker 1: and then just being him and h for anybody that's

1404
01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:27,280
Speaker 1: his size that can run and jump and run through

1405
01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:30,120
Speaker 1: and through people, it's a it's a it's it's a

1406
01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:35,120
Speaker 1: special combination. And and Josh is giftedly one of those

1407
01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:40,479
Speaker 1: guys that um that has it. Definitely, thank you good

1408
01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:45,360
Speaker 1: luck this way, Hud for sure, thank you, Hey Dion,

1409
01:19:45,640 --> 01:19:48,360
Speaker 1: Um what is Reggie Gilliam added to this team over

1410
01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:52,280
Speaker 1: the last stretch? So I am so glad that Reggie

1411
01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:56,280
Speaker 1: is starting to pop up in these questions because because

1412
01:19:56,400 --> 01:19:58,600
Speaker 1: Reggie is a dog and he's been a dog. You know,

1413
01:19:58,800 --> 01:20:00,680
Speaker 1: Reggie has been a dog for a long time. And

1414
01:20:01,040 --> 01:20:03,360
Speaker 1: when I say dog, I mean an animal like you know,

1415
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:07,800
Speaker 1: Reggie opposes his will on whoever he physically puts his

1416
01:20:07,880 --> 01:20:12,080
Speaker 1: hands on. And I honestly think that Reggie, pound for

1417
01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:17,000
Speaker 1: four pound is probably um a secret, like like he's

1418
01:20:17,080 --> 01:20:20,280
Speaker 1: the secret that is finally out. But he's one of

1419
01:20:20,360 --> 01:20:24,160
Speaker 1: those Uh, he's one of those those guys that just

1420
01:20:24,320 --> 01:20:27,599
Speaker 1: stays quiet, but he's like a snake. And to get

1421
01:20:27,640 --> 01:20:33,160
Speaker 1: close enough, all right, let's Ian Dawkins addressing the Buffalo

1422
01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:39,360
Speaker 1: media after practice today. No disrespect but blank everybody, Uh,

1423
01:20:41,040 --> 01:20:43,680
Speaker 1: I guess that's what I guess. That's the modern day

1424
01:20:43,840 --> 01:20:47,479
Speaker 1: version of this team circling the wagon. Steve so to speak, Well,

1425
01:20:47,520 --> 01:20:52,160
Speaker 1: it wasn't much different back then. Yeah, but yeah, this

1426
01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:55,280
Speaker 1: is a yeah, it's a huge game. And the guy's

1427
01:20:55,320 --> 01:20:57,360
Speaker 1: handle it and cope with this pressure and the stress

1428
01:20:57,439 --> 01:21:02,120
Speaker 1: and the expectations as best they see fit. And everybody,

1429
01:21:02,160 --> 01:21:04,400
Speaker 1: all these guys handle it differently, and some of the

1430
01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:09,880
Speaker 1: stuff early about you know, the expectations and how you're

1431
01:21:09,920 --> 01:21:12,120
Speaker 1: going to handle them. You know, what's it mean? Is

1432
01:21:12,160 --> 01:21:14,680
Speaker 1: this motivating? What's the most motive? Are you motivated by

1433
01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:17,840
Speaker 1: this or that? Every guy's different and he's motivated by

1434
01:21:17,880 --> 01:21:21,200
Speaker 1: different things. That's why great head coaches can grab everybody

1435
01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:25,479
Speaker 1: in the room and get them, get them there. They're

1436
01:21:25,520 --> 01:21:27,320
Speaker 1: all there in a different way. They're all motivated by

1437
01:21:27,360 --> 01:21:30,000
Speaker 1: a different thing. But you know, if you can, if

1438
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:31,599
Speaker 1: you got a good head coach like Sean and you've

1439
01:21:31,640 --> 01:21:35,160
Speaker 1: got great player leadership, they all do get there and

1440
01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:37,880
Speaker 1: you show up. YEA. One point, It seems that what

1441
01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:40,920
Speaker 1: happens more often than not is they close ranks this

1442
01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:44,839
Speaker 1: time of year. You know, it's almost like the circle

1443
01:21:44,920 --> 01:21:49,960
Speaker 1: gets even tighter to make sure everybody's focused Yeah, that's

1444
01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:52,600
Speaker 1: a function of holding everybody accountable. You know, you got it.

1445
01:21:52,640 --> 01:21:54,880
Speaker 1: I got you, man, what you got this? You doing

1446
01:21:54,960 --> 01:21:56,559
Speaker 1: this and they're doing it to you say yeah, I'm

1447
01:21:56,560 --> 01:21:57,920
Speaker 1: doing my thing. I got you, and are you doing

1448
01:21:58,000 --> 01:21:59,720
Speaker 1: your thing? And by the time you get around the room,

1449
01:22:00,080 --> 01:22:02,080
Speaker 1: you know, you're four days deep into the week. You

1450
01:22:02,120 --> 01:22:03,840
Speaker 1: haven't talked to anybody else, you know what I mean.

1451
01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:07,840
Speaker 1: You do tend to close the ranks very much so

1452
01:22:08,200 --> 01:22:13,080
Speaker 1: coaching staff as well. Your phones go silent, even they

1453
01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:15,240
Speaker 1: may be blown up, but you're not even picking it up.

1454
01:22:17,200 --> 01:22:19,760
Speaker 1: It's that kind of ad of atmosphere. When you're out

1455
01:22:19,840 --> 01:22:25,320
Speaker 1: in practice, it's a little quieter, you know what I mean.

1456
01:22:25,479 --> 01:22:29,559
Speaker 1: Guys are zoned in, you know, they're feeling like there

1457
01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:32,680
Speaker 1: and they realize that everybody's contribution, no matter what it is,

1458
01:22:32,840 --> 01:22:35,799
Speaker 1: from from Josh Allen all the way down to Tyler

1459
01:22:35,880 --> 01:22:39,680
Speaker 1: Bass and Matt Hawk and you know, the specialists and

1460
01:22:39,760 --> 01:22:44,280
Speaker 1: everybody in between, they always feel like they're You don't

1461
01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:47,679
Speaker 1: want to be the guy who who drops the ball,

1462
01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:49,320
Speaker 1: you know, you don't want to be the guy who's

1463
01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:52,320
Speaker 1: the weak link. You want your role to be fulfilled

1464
01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:55,559
Speaker 1: exactly like it needs to be fulfilled, and everybody's pretty

1465
01:22:55,640 --> 01:22:58,120
Speaker 1: keyed in on it because the magnitude of the week

1466
01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:02,040
Speaker 1: is palpable. I mean it's yeah, yeah, and you don't

1467
01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:03,800
Speaker 1: want to let those guys down. Yeah, you know, you

1468
01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:06,000
Speaker 1: had a lot of love and respect in that locker room.

1469
01:23:06,160 --> 01:23:07,760
Speaker 1: You don't. You want to make sure those guys can

1470
01:23:07,840 --> 01:23:09,720
Speaker 1: count on. You want to be somebody they can count on.

1471
01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:13,160
Speaker 1: So you're pretty highly motivated during the week. I've said it.

1472
01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:18,360
Speaker 1: These games are one Monday through Saturday, you know the

1473
01:23:18,439 --> 01:23:20,960
Speaker 1: week leading up to it, by the preparation. But in

1474
01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:25,519
Speaker 1: games like this, that's when they're won. Those games all

1475
01:23:25,520 --> 01:23:28,639
Speaker 1: the six days, but they're lost on game day, right.

1476
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:31,599
Speaker 1: You know, you trip and fall, you slip and fall,

1477
01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:34,280
Speaker 1: you drop the ball, you miss a pass, you're missing assignment,

1478
01:23:34,360 --> 01:23:38,400
Speaker 1: the guy fakes you out, whatever, the ball gets knocked out,

1479
01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:42,240
Speaker 1: you don't want Yeah, you want to be the guy

1480
01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:43,720
Speaker 1: that knocks it out. You don't want to have it

1481
01:23:43,840 --> 01:23:49,160
Speaker 1: knocked out of your hands. That's so everybody's really envisioning

1482
01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:50,720
Speaker 1: how this get. They want this game to go for

1483
01:23:50,800 --> 01:23:55,240
Speaker 1: each individual guy. There is an update on practice for

1484
01:23:55,479 --> 01:23:57,640
Speaker 1: the Chiefs out in Kansas City from some of the

1485
01:23:57,680 --> 01:24:03,320
Speaker 1: b reporters out there, Pete Sweeney said. The Chiefs announced

1486
01:24:03,400 --> 01:24:07,479
Speaker 1: there would be no practice on Thursday for cornerback Rashad Fenton.

1487
01:24:07,560 --> 01:24:09,639
Speaker 1: That's the second straight day of practice he is missing

1488
01:24:09,720 --> 01:24:13,280
Speaker 1: due to a back injury. Linebacker Willie Gay who had

1489
01:24:13,360 --> 01:24:16,960
Speaker 1: the minor off the field issue, and running back Daryl

1490
01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:19,680
Speaker 1: Williams who's been dealing with a toe issue. He did

1491
01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:21,720
Speaker 1: play last week but had to exit the game as

1492
01:24:22,320 --> 01:24:26,719
Speaker 1: he did not feel right with that problem. It's looking

1493
01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:30,240
Speaker 1: more and more like Clyde Edwards Hilaire has a chance

1494
01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:33,280
Speaker 1: to play on Sunday. He had his second straight day

1495
01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:37,120
Speaker 1: of practice today, So we'll wait for the Chiefs Thursday

1496
01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:39,479
Speaker 1: injury report to come out to see what level of

1497
01:24:39,600 --> 01:24:46,080
Speaker 1: participation Clyde Edwards Hilaire had. He was full yesterday and

1498
01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:49,760
Speaker 1: we'll see what that means. And you know, their list

1499
01:24:49,840 --> 01:24:52,320
Speaker 1: isn't long, neither as Buffalo. So I think that makes

1500
01:24:52,320 --> 01:24:55,719
Speaker 1: it all the more entertaining and game quite frankly, because

1501
01:24:55,720 --> 01:24:58,320
Speaker 1: everybody's got all their horses for the most part, I

1502
01:24:58,400 --> 01:25:00,240
Speaker 1: think that makes for a better on field produc In

1503
01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:03,720
Speaker 1: terms of the competitiveness of this matchup, Yeah, I think

1504
01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:05,760
Speaker 1: it's gonna It looks to me like it's gonna be

1505
01:25:05,760 --> 01:25:08,000
Speaker 1: a great game. We could we could be completely wrong,

1506
01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:11,400
Speaker 1: one of the team or the other. Both these teams

1507
01:25:11,479 --> 01:25:13,479
Speaker 1: have the firepower to run off and leave people if

1508
01:25:13,720 --> 01:25:16,320
Speaker 1: the other team doesn't keep up. But I think that's

1509
01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:19,120
Speaker 1: what this game looks like. Yeah, no question about it.

1510
01:25:19,320 --> 01:25:21,200
Speaker 1: All right, we have to take a break here, but

1511
01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:26,160
Speaker 1: when we return. We heard yesterday about how Bill Belichick

1512
01:25:26,880 --> 01:25:30,599
Speaker 1: made an extended visit to the Bills locker room after

1513
01:25:30,680 --> 01:25:33,840
Speaker 1: his team got drubbed by thirty points and the Bills

1514
01:25:33,840 --> 01:25:37,320
Speaker 1: were the only offense to ever go wire to wire

1515
01:25:37,360 --> 01:25:40,880
Speaker 1: against Belichick and score on every non kneel down possession.

1516
01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:44,160
Speaker 1: Who did he spend a little extra time with in

1517
01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:45,920
Speaker 1: the Bills locker room. We'll let you know when we

1518
01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:49,160
Speaker 1: return here on One Bill's Live, presented by Kalida Health,

1519
01:25:49,200 --> 01:26:04,920
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right, back here on One

1520
01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:08,479
Speaker 1: Bill's Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you, and we

1521
01:26:08,760 --> 01:26:14,040
Speaker 1: have some interesting stuff regarding Belichick's visit to the postgame

1522
01:26:14,080 --> 01:26:16,960
Speaker 1: locker room of the Bills after their thirty point beat

1523
01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:20,680
Speaker 1: down of the Patriots. Yes, I'm still using that. We

1524
01:26:20,840 --> 01:26:23,640
Speaker 1: heard the other day through NFL Networks, Mike Giardi that

1525
01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:27,200
Speaker 1: Belichick spent an extended amount of time in the Bills

1526
01:26:27,280 --> 01:26:31,880
Speaker 1: locker room, presumably congratulating them and offering them the best

1527
01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:35,280
Speaker 1: of luck going forward. Josh Allen basically confirmed that in

1528
01:26:35,360 --> 01:26:41,080
Speaker 1: a recent appearance on The Pad McAfee show, and he said, basically,

1529
01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:42,519
Speaker 1: for him to come up to me after the game,

1530
01:26:42,600 --> 01:26:44,240
Speaker 1: give me some kudos and dat me up in a

1531
01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:46,360
Speaker 1: lot to me. Just knowing the type of coach that

1532
01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:48,519
Speaker 1: he is, the type of players that he's been around,

1533
01:26:49,000 --> 01:26:51,320
Speaker 1: and obviously the success he's had throughout his career, it

1534
01:26:51,360 --> 01:26:54,640
Speaker 1: was a pretty cool moment for me. He said. He

1535
01:26:54,840 --> 01:27:00,719
Speaker 1: basically gave me respect, saying what you did out was awesome.

1536
01:27:00,880 --> 01:27:03,640
Speaker 1: You played well tonight. We didn't have an answer, and

1537
01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:06,400
Speaker 1: again I shared respect right back, obviously because I'm a

1538
01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:07,800
Speaker 1: big fan of his and I could go on and

1539
01:27:07,880 --> 01:27:10,320
Speaker 1: on about the accolades that he has, but again, for

1540
01:27:10,400 --> 01:27:14,160
Speaker 1: a coach to do that that high caliber was pretty special.

1541
01:27:15,360 --> 01:27:17,080
Speaker 1: Do you ever have an opposing coach come into your

1542
01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:19,080
Speaker 1: locker room and do that after a playoff game or something?

1543
01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:20,880
Speaker 1: Do you remember anything like that? Not like that on

1544
01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:22,920
Speaker 1: the field, I got some once in a while. Yeah,

1545
01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:25,120
Speaker 1: special teams coordinators and stuff like that. They'd come over,

1546
01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:26,640
Speaker 1: and obviously I had a lot of respect for the

1547
01:27:26,680 --> 01:27:31,160
Speaker 1: guys I played against, and it was It's one of

1548
01:27:31,200 --> 01:27:33,000
Speaker 1: the most amazing things when you go out there and

1549
01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:34,720
Speaker 1: you kind of in a fistfight with these guys in

1550
01:27:34,840 --> 01:27:36,519
Speaker 1: and after the game, you're kind of like hugging each

1551
01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:38,360
Speaker 1: other because it's you know, I've told you it's kind

1552
01:27:38,360 --> 01:27:41,479
Speaker 1: of an intimate relationship, even though it's violent. It's a

1553
01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:45,639
Speaker 1: small fraternity, yeah, and you got you know, it's there's

1554
01:27:45,680 --> 01:27:47,040
Speaker 1: a lot of love and respect there, even for the

1555
01:27:47,080 --> 01:27:49,800
Speaker 1: guys across the way after it's all over, right. We

1556
01:27:49,920 --> 01:27:53,560
Speaker 1: had mentioned that. The only other time we knew of

1557
01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:56,479
Speaker 1: Belichick going to another locker room after the game was

1558
01:27:57,680 --> 01:28:02,000
Speaker 1: the Brady homecoming game Week four, I think it was

1559
01:28:02,120 --> 01:28:04,000
Speaker 1: this season when the Bucks went up to New England

1560
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:07,160
Speaker 1: to play the Patriots, and Belichick and Brady had a

1561
01:28:07,240 --> 01:28:11,680
Speaker 1: long conversation after that one, which the Bucks won nineteen seventeen.

1562
01:28:13,200 --> 01:28:17,960
Speaker 1: I would tend to believe that he's done that a

1563
01:28:18,040 --> 01:28:20,920
Speaker 1: lot of times over the years. Now, he's won more

1564
01:28:20,960 --> 01:28:23,280
Speaker 1: playoff games and he's lost, so he probably hasn't had

1565
01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:27,360
Speaker 1: to all that often. But in this instance, you got

1566
01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:30,080
Speaker 1: to give him credit. For doing that. It's not an

1567
01:28:30,120 --> 01:28:33,080
Speaker 1: easy thing to do when you just got humiliated on

1568
01:28:33,280 --> 01:28:37,640
Speaker 1: national TV to go and do that, right. Yeah, and

1569
01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:42,720
Speaker 1: you know it does mean something for players, especially when

1570
01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:44,760
Speaker 1: the opposing coach comes over and says something to him

1571
01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:46,800
Speaker 1: about you know, like you know, wanting, yeah, I wish

1572
01:28:46,840 --> 01:28:48,080
Speaker 1: you were on my team kind of stuff. You know.

1573
01:28:48,080 --> 01:28:49,120
Speaker 1: I used to used to get that a lot of

1574
01:28:49,160 --> 01:28:51,160
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl. You go out to those things and

1575
01:28:51,280 --> 01:28:53,080
Speaker 1: get the different stats, you'd a chance to rub up

1576
01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:55,160
Speaker 1: against those guys and talk to him at a personal level.

1577
01:28:55,800 --> 01:28:57,719
Speaker 1: It's a lot of fun and it really is enlightening

1578
01:28:57,760 --> 01:29:00,200
Speaker 1: and it means something to the players, especially one of

1579
01:29:00,280 --> 01:29:02,599
Speaker 1: that stature. He comes into locker room, people are probably

1580
01:29:02,640 --> 01:29:07,680
Speaker 1: looking at in he's literally a legend. Yeah, literally and

1581
01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:11,760
Speaker 1: legendary not only for players and but like coaches and

1582
01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:15,080
Speaker 1: the end of the entire sport. Pretty cool. Yeah. Uh,
