Good afternoon and welcome to training Camp 3 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: Bills Training Camp in Rochester, Pittsford, New York. John Murphy, 4 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 1: Steve Tasker. Here. It is a beautiful day again in Pittsford, 5 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 1: Date two of training camp. Practice is over, players still 6 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,199 Speaker 1: coming up the field. We've had a great day here 7 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 1: for day two. Hi everybody, I'm John Murphy. This is 8 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: Steve Tasker. Beautiful day. I checked it one in the 9 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: middle of practice. Day was seventy eight degrees. It felt warmer. 10 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 1: We've been watching on the roof, uh, and it gets 11 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 1: hot up there. It felt warmer. It felt like eighty 12 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: eight degrees. We actually had to come it down inside 13 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 1: the press box, which by which is still a nicer, 14 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: still nicer way to watch watch it. Yeah. We we 15 00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: decided we've got some uh, some idiosyncrasies about watching camp 16 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: that have come to light this this year that if 17 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 1: we're not there last year we watched, we watched from 18 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,759 Speaker 1: the sidelines last year, it's much better to be up 19 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: and above. You get a better view. You can switch 20 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,320 Speaker 1: positions real a lot quicker. I see why I was 21 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: never a coach, which you know for good reason. But 22 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: I see why they like it better up there. They 23 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,960 Speaker 1: can switch their attention to different parts of the game 24 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: without having to walk five minutes around the field to 25 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: go over and watch the last two reps of the 26 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: wide receivers or whatever. And when you hang with Steve 27 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: Tasker in a situation like this, he's got people grabbing 28 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: at him all the time. Steve, Steve signed that. Steve, 29 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,479 Speaker 1: like the voice of the Bills, doesn't have anybody. Nobody recognizes. 30 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: The point is on the roof, you're like walking with 31 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: the mayor on the roof. Let me finish on the roof. 32 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: Nobody bothers you as much. Right, we go up there 33 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: and we're by ourselves and we can focus. Should make 34 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: for a better show. Well we do, and we do 35 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: have good conversations up there. Actually some of them are 36 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: better than the ones we have here. But good, you 37 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: know you can. It's it's really fun to go up 38 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: there and sit in the quiet. It's not like a 39 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: whole show, just privately for us. Yes, and you know 40 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: we don't have to and we can do our jobs. Actually, 41 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: I guess right, And you don't get the socializing and hey, 42 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: how you doing. Hey, what's up? Nothing? The same thing 43 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: I told you before I start doing this job. I 44 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: just show up at training camp and I was, you know, 45 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: the kind of the first time I would be back 46 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: in the you know, back with the team since whatever, 47 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: since the last offseason or what. I'd come in, I'd 48 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: drop in and be on the show once in a while. 49 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: But you come out and then I gotta say hi 50 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: to this guy and this guy and this guy, this guy, 51 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: all of these people. What you got to because yeah, 52 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 1: otherwise you're a jerk. So having that now we can 53 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: go up there and not escape. But you know, because 54 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: we gotta be on. I mean, we gotta be on 55 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: the air, so we gotta be ready. And that means 56 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,679 Speaker 1: you got to watch practice, which was fun, which is good, 57 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: and we got a lot of stuff to talk about 58 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 1: in practice. Say we'll get to that. Over the three 59 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 1: hour course of the show, got a couple of good guests, 60 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 1: including Josh Allen after you've heard of him, Bill Second, 61 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 1: your quarterback back here for his second training camp, going 62 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: to join us. At a moment I saw him come 63 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 1: off the field, I think he was doing some significant 64 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: autographs right. The last couple of minutes. Probably still doing that, 65 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: and we'll get Josh up here in the next couple 66 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: of minutes, so stand by for that. Lorenzo Alexander, our 67 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: usual Friday guests scheduled to join us today in the 68 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: one o'clock hour. Miss talking to Zoe. You know we 69 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: take him for granted, don't you. I don't even watch 70 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: him in practice. I don't. We're looking. We spent I 71 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: think we made a concerted effort today. I did. I 72 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: hope you did. Of watching the defense look at it 73 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: at Oliver, we're looking. I mean Shack Lawson was worth watching, 74 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: or a bunch of guys worth watching today. I never 75 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: laid eyes on Lorenjoy. I know he's out there and 76 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 1: he's healthy and he's playing, but I never thought to 77 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: watch him. You know, it'll be fine, and it's there's 78 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: so much going on, and you're reminded every year of 79 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: things you forget.

How's the offense doing, how's the 83 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: defense doing? What are they doing? What? Like today they 84 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: were working on blitz packages, both offensively and defensively, big 85 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: exotic looks on and whether whether it looks like they're 86 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: bringing everybody in the house and they drop out into covery. 87 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: All that different stuff that they were doing today, and 88 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: also some down and distant stuff, some situational football, which 89 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: is you know, in today's NFL, that's all anybody works 90 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: on anymore.

You and 107 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: I kind of users something.

I should, but now they had to 186 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: be fun. That looked like fun. It was a great time, 187 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: and I was one of the youngest guys there. It 188 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: was me and Kyle Fuller were kind of the young 189 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: guys but like everybody else was like twenty eight, twenty 190 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: nine and up.

So but 194 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: it was a cool experience to be in that room 195 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 1: and to talk to some NFL Hall of famers and 196 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: made an impression on you, which Marcus Allen really he 197 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: came out to me. Obviously, we shared the same last name, 198 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: so he came out to me and says that last 199 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: name means something. So that was really cool. That's cool. 200 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: And you did that and played a little golf there. 201 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: You also did you go to the US Open a pebble? 202 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: I did, yeah, and that was pretty cool.

Um. 239 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: Most people, I don't know how they treat it, but 240 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: this is awesome for me. I love being with the 241 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: team and developing that camaraderie and those relationships with the 242 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: Josh Allen Bill's quarterback Josh Allen spend in a few 243 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 1: minutes with us. Year is practice number two and Steve 244 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: and I were talking yesterday about what a different set 245 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: up for you at camp. Then it was a year ago. 246 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: You're in a bona fide and it was a pretty 247 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 1: straightforward three week quarterback competition at this time last year. Yeah, 248 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: not sold this year, right. You're getting a lot of 249 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: reps and a lot of a lot of work here, absolutely, 250 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: and it feels good to be in this type of position. 251 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: But you know, didn't have Coal and OTAs, didn't have 252 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: Mitch and ot so getting out there, trying to get 253 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: as much reps as possible. I throwing into them, taking 254 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: snaps from them, talking with them, communicating with them, little 255 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: things like that. Um, you know, Coach talks about the 256 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: sooner the better we get things dialed in, you know, 257 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: So we're on that track. Um, we're very communicative. I 258 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: really like what we got going on here. It's a 259 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: special group to be around to talk a little bit 260 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 1: about how the teams evolved. I mean, this is your 261 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 1: second year you've seen, you know, and it happens every year. 262 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: There's even if on steady and established teams, there's like 263 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: twelve fifteen, maybe maybe even you know, twenty guys that 264 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: are gonna wash through, gonna be different. So every team's 265 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: really unique. What's what's so far second practice of training 266 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: camp and the OTAs. What's unique about this one? I 267 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: definitely think it's how we talk. You know. Coach alluded 268 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: to a point yesterday to everybody, quite teams don't win, 269 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: you know, we take that and I've got to be 270 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: communicative to the offensive line. I got to hear their checks, 271 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: their calls. Then I got to make sure that if 272 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: I see something else, I got to be communicative and 273 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: fix it. Then I got to look outside and I 274 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: got to be able to communicate with my receivers, and 275 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: sometimes you have to do that without talking, you know, 276 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: signals and being on the same page. Sometimes it's as 277 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: little as you know, it's an eye or a nod 278 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 1: or a look or anything like that. So the more 279 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: we're able to rep these things in practice, the better 280 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: we're going to be able to apply it to the 281 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: game field. How would you describe, whether it's a percentage 282 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: or whether it's just a word or a description. How 283 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: much different this is inside you this training camp, having 284 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: been around one lap in the NFL, gone through last 285 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 1: season and the ups and downs and to come back, 286 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,719 Speaker 1: How different a guy are you. I don't want to 287 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 1: say it's a night and day difference, but I think 288 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 1: it's close to that. I think with the guys that 289 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: we've got here, we've got a lot of professional players 290 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 1: on our team, guys that really take their job serious. 291 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that we didn't have that last year, 292 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: but I think the focus that we have right now, 293 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 1: you know, it starts with coach McDermott gets kind of 294 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: trickled down through Dable and then through each position coach 295 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: and you know, Tremaine myself meeting with McDermott and trying 296 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: to delay or portray the message that coach wants to 297 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: get out and talk to everybody in the locker room. 298 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 1: Having guys like Lorenzo, Alexander and Frank Gore to um, 299 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: you know, talk to everybody and be those spiritual and 300 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: emotional and vocal leaders. It's awesome, you know, And I 301 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 1: think it's it's a very different field this year. Um. 302 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: But at the same time, we've got a lot of 303 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: work to do. We got it. We gotta get better. 304 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: We've got to improve every day we come out here, 305 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: and that's got to be our mindset. And I think 306 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 1: that is Josh. Yesterday, Steve and I had noticed we 307 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: talked about on the show, and you mentioned the professional 308 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: aspect of it, and I guess I didn't see a 309 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 1: lot of them in the spring. It didn't see very 310 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: much at all of Cole Beasley, but those two you 311 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: could tell they are professional bonifide NFL. John Browning, I'm sorry, yeah, 312 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: John brown Yeah, yeah, you know what I mean. They well, 313 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,439 Speaker 1: because they've been around exactly they've obviously been in the 314 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 1: league for for quite some time. Now because they do 315 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: things the right way, they talk about it and they 316 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 1: want to get better. And you know, to have some 317 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: younger guys in that room and to have them as 318 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: kind of like the role models or um pictures of 319 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: what you should and shouldn't do, you know, I think 320 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: it's great for our young group as well. You know, 321 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: we've got a lot of guys that are learning from them, 322 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: and it's it's fantastic. I'm learning a lot of things 323 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: from John, I'm learning a lot of things from Cole. 324 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: I'm learning a lot of things from Mitch. How looking 325 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: forward and even up to this point, how different has 326 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: it been now? And not only for you being a 327 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 1: different guy and having a whole year of experience, but 328 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: also you know, it looks like, you know, maybe as 329 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: many as seven eight new starters on the offense, it's 330 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: gonna be a whole new group of guys almost completely. Yeah, 331 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: how does that? How do you look forward? How's that 332 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: going to change things for you going forward? I mean 333 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: that's got to be a completely it's like a new team. Yeah, 334 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: on your side of the bowl for sure. Um, you know, 335 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: we got through each day. We've got to have that 336 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: same mindset of getting better. I know I keep repeating that, 337 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: but you know, we're still kind of shuffling in pieces 338 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: and shuffling out pieces, and you know, nothing set in stone. 339 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: Anything can happen in any given day. But you know 340 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: we're trying to Me and Mitch got to be on 341 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: the same page. You know, we went out and we 342 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: got him and he was our guy that we wanted 343 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: and I'm super glad we got him. So me and 344 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 1: him have to be on the same page to relay everything. 345 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: And then with the guys outside, um, you know, whether 346 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: it's Zay, Robert Ray, Isaiah cole John, you know, I 347 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: think the list goes on whoever. I say. When they 348 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 1: get in, they've got another stuff. And we got to 349 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: be able to communicate and be on the same page. 350 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 1: So when they're running a route at twelve yards, they 351 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: need to be at twelve routs and I gotta put 352 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: it where it needs to be. So how often do 353 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: you non verbally communicate with those guys? Oh? Every play, 354 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: every play, it's nonverbal. It's a look, it's you know, 355 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the defense if someone's off, and it's 356 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 1: it's little subtle things that a lot of people can't see. 357 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: But it's going to continue to get better the more 358 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: the more we rep We're with Bill's quarterback Josh Shandlon 359 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: just a couple of minutes left. You did a news 360 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: conference post practice yesterday and somebody asked you what's a 361 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: big thing you need to improve on? And I loved 362 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: your answer. It wasn't you know this throw or that throw, 363 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: or accuracy or or arm strength. It was decision making. 364 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: Can you talk about that where you see that need 365 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: is what you need to do to make better decisions? 366 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: And what kind of decisions are we talking about? Well, 367 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: I mean today for the first time I was I 368 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: was pretty pumped. You know, they were showing double a 369 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: gap and it was third down in two and I 370 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: had switched the protection. I was moving it left and 371 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: at the snap, everybody jumped out, and at that moment, 372 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: I was like, I can see Frank in my vision 373 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: right here. I see Mike and dropping out. Let's just 374 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: go to him. Now, let's get the ball to somebody 375 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: that's short, but it's gonna get the first down. And 376 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 1: instead of messing with everybody dropping out this way, I 377 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: went straight to my outlet and Frank, And you know, 378 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: I think that was like the best decision I made 379 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: all day. There were a couple of passes and again 380 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 1: there was a long team period in the middle today, 381 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: and a couple of passes you just zipped right over 382 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: the middle and you you hit like four or five 383 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: or six in a row. And Steve and I turned 384 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: to each other up in the prespects they're watching, said, 385 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: he's feeling it now. Did you have that sense during practice? Yeah? Absolutely? 386 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: And you know every practice is going to present different challenges, 387 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: and coach mcd does a great job in script and 388 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: practices and giving us different situations to kind of put 389 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: us in a bind. But today was mostly third down. 390 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: We're gonna get a lot of man, they're gonna try 391 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 1: to mess with us and fake pressure one way, drop 392 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: zone the other way. So just going through my progressions 393 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: as quickly as possible, seeing a guy open, throwing a 394 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 1: guye open, right, was there? Um, there was a lot 395 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: of fake pressure and and I wonder if you're further 396 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 1: ahead then where you were a year ago in terms 397 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 1: of the bills. Feel comfortable showing you those looks right, absolutely, 398 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 1: And I mean everything that that kind of boils down 399 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 1: to is protection. No one where you're protected, No one 400 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 1: where your hots are, no one, where your answers are. 401 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: If you get you know, cross stop and you set 402 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: it wrong the wrong way and they come and they're 403 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: they're right because the defense gets paid too. You know, 404 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: we've got a great defense on the other side of 405 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: the ball. Um. You know, Mike and Jordan have been 406 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,719 Speaker 1: doing a really really good job of disguising things and 407 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: it makes it tough on an offense. Mean, you can 408 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: do that. So it's just knowing your answers. The installs 409 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 1: going on schedule? Is it a little? A lot of 410 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: this now probably is reinstall of what you did in 411 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 1: the Nation and all that, and he's trying to polish 412 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: it up. How big a problem is it for you is? 413 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: You know, it seems to me most of these training 414 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 1: camp practices a throwing league, no question about it. But 415 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: running game is not going to happen until they put 416 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: pads on. You know, you're not going to get a 417 00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 1: sense of the real timing of that part of the 418 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: game until until you really get into really games. I mean, 419 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 1: they're not going to pound each other on these training 420 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: camp things. How big an issue is and how much 421 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: you've thought of you guys, given to the running game 422 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: how that's going to affect, you know, the progression through 423 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: this training camp. I mean, we know when there's no 424 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: pads on, it's a little different and guys can't get 425 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: up to the second level as much. And in practice, 426 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,439 Speaker 1: you want to practice smart. You don't want to go 427 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 1: and cut your guys and try to try to hurt somebody. 428 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: I'm not saying you want to go into a game 429 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 1: and do that, but there's a different aggression when you're 430 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: playing a game. So we're smart about it. I think 431 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: coach McDermott kind of relays that message to us of 432 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 1: playing smart, keeping each other up. But I will say 433 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: that we got some dudes upfront that are or that 434 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 1: are mean, you know, and that's why we went out 435 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,119 Speaker 1: and get them. They're smart, and they're tough football players, 436 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: and they're not afraid to stick their noses into things. 437 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: So when pads godam makes just to see it's gonna 438 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: be a good battle between our defense and our offensive line. Josh, 439 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: your quarterback room here at camp is you're the only 440 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: one returning from last year's quarterback room at camp. But 441 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: what are you getting from Matt Parkley, What are you 442 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 1: getting from Kemp Dorsey In this camp, you know, obviously 443 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 1: having met there last year, just kind of seeing you know, 444 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: how he devel helped and how he processed the game 445 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: and how he thought about things. Um, you know, he 446 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: seeing how he throws and how he leads guys, and 447 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: that's all great, but his mental aspect, you know, seeing 448 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: what he thinks about on different protections because he's been 449 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: in a few offensive systems now and you know, when 450 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 1: he there's something that he likes, you know, he's going 451 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,719 Speaker 1: to really relay that and let coach deble know and 452 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: it's going to be an open discussion. Um. And then Dorsey, 453 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 1: you know, I think the difference between this year and 454 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: last year is having Dorsey. Um, you know, Dorsey knows 455 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: his stuff, he's played the position. He can give great 456 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: insight on what to do in certain coverages on our concepts, 457 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,919 Speaker 1: and Dave's doesn't need to be in the meetings with us, um, 458 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: you know, and that's one thing that's that's off to him. 459 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: Oh absolutely, absolutely so. UM, Dorsey's been fantastic, you know, 460 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: and we're going to continue to develop that relationship as well. UM, 461 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 1: you're good. You got a question. Well, I'm gonna wrap 462 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: it up unless you get some ready. What are you yeah, 463 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,199 Speaker 1: what are your expectations when you come out of this 464 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 1: training camp? And I know, well let's here you ask 465 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: him to our Twitter poll questions when you need to different? 466 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: We know you're gonna get but you got better week 467 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: by week. Last year we watched you and you know 468 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: from one week where you know this week, hey, you 469 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 1: threw it away when you actually maybe try to fit 470 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: one in last year week or you you ran out 471 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: of bounce once when you you know, after taking a 472 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: hit the week before, So you got better step by step. 473 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 1: What are people going to notice about you this year? 474 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: About your game? What do you think is gonna be 475 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: the big step forward? I think just being with the 476 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 1: year under my belt, having those game reps. I think 477 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: quicker decisions. Um, you know, going against a great defense 478 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,239 Speaker 1: every day like ours, you know that's gonna help us, 479 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: you know, on the offensive side of the ball. So 480 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: it's gonna be quicker decisions if it's not there, you know, 481 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 1: really thinking find my outlet. If it's not there, scramble, 482 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: make a play. If that's not there, just throw the 483 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: ball away, you know, making smart decisions allowing our offense 484 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: to surviving other downs and surviving another day at the 485 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 1: same time. You know, the job of the quarterback is 486 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: to move the chains and score, you know, so that's 487 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: that's what we're gonna try to do this year. Thanks 488 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: for this good Thank you, someone appreciate it, yoh, quarterback 489 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: Steve and I coming back in a moment one Bill's 490 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:09,880 Speaker 1: Live from Bill's training camp on Buffalo Bill, Welcome back 491 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: to training camp. Up the beautiful day, seventy eighth grade sunshine. 492 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: We're here at the Saint John Fisher College. John Murphy 493 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 1: and Steve Tasker. Day two of practice is complete. Good 494 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 1: day you just heard. If you just tuned in, you 495 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: missed it. But if you were listening earlier, you just 496 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: heard from quarterback johsh Hellen. And if you miss that, 497 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: you can catch it up on our website a little 498 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: bit later on on some of our social media platforms. 499 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,959 Speaker 1: I liked that interview Steve and Ill. Can I tell 500 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: you why because we did a number one number two 501 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: because we got him talking about stuff he isn't I 502 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: haven't heard him talk a lot. Yeah about a lot, 503 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 1: you know, including decision making, which he considers critical. Is next, 504 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: you know, the thing he wants to do most And 505 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: I mean today's practice. I mean, you could tell we're 506 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,360 Speaker 1: sitting there, no kidding, right, we're up there. And I said, 507 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 1: holy cow, he's in his own now, he's feeling it. Now. 508 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: There was a string in today's practice of what four 509 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: or five six straight completions, three of them just zips 510 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 1: over the middle to they were in tight windows, yea traffic. 511 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 1: And that's when I was like, there it is. And 512 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 1: it took him a while. He wasn't on that to 513 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 1: that extent early in practice. It was a lot of 514 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 1: fun to see that happen today. And I told you 515 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,360 Speaker 1: this earlier. We were watching him even in the drill work. 516 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: He had like right now today, I might not be 517 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: that way tomorrow. It might be just the opposite tomorrow. 518 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, but today, you know, you always want, 519 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 1: you know, you overthink all of this stuff. But he's 520 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 1: They changed throws every they dropped back, and they're throwing 521 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,919 Speaker 1: with wide receivers one on one, not even one on 522 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: one against air, right, so there's no defense. They're just 523 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: dropping back throwing routes. And so each quarterback gets maybe 524 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 1: what five or six throws, and well he'd probably gets 525 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: six or eight throws. Four to one side, three or 526 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: four to one side on that route, and then three 527 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: or four to the other side, alternating one to the 528 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: others against air against air, and the first throw of 529 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,479 Speaker 1: every one of those, Josh, be you'd be off target. 530 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: You know. The rest of them were money, I mean 531 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: really on And to me, that's a lot about just 532 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: getting reps and that first throw is gonna be good, 533 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 1: you know, and in the game, you know, you don't 534 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: get three or four shots at him, get get that throw, 535 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: and but he drops back slings it and he made it. 536 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: He made like I said at the beginning of the show, 537 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: he made about three or four or five wow throws today. Yeah, 538 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 1: and they weren't like the long ball over the shoulder, 539 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 1: deep ball that we've seen it. These were tight windows, 540 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: very accurate guys breaking in or out across the formation. 541 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 1: It was I was like, wow, you know, I don't know, 542 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 1: I never and you know me, I've never thought of 543 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: him as being this scatter shot arm. And certainly there's 544 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 1: some balls that you know, the drift on him or 545 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. But man, oh man, 546 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 1: it was fun. You know, it was fun to see 547 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: and it was pretty encouraging. It was a practice that 548 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: was kind of slow to warm up today. I thought 549 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 1: about ten fifteen minutes longer than yesterday's. Early on, We're like, 550 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: it was like an hour into practice before we got 551 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: to something to you, and I really wanted to tak 552 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,159 Speaker 1: took a while to get to the teamwork. Once I 553 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 1: got into it, it was It was tremendous fun. It 554 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: was a really good practice, and I think we're all 555 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 1: a pretty good practice for Josh Allen and it's great 556 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 1: to hear him talk about it. Thanks for joining us 557 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: on the show. Our Twitter poll today deals with Josh 558 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: and we know you have opinions about him. Everybody does 559 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: right see him? If you see him or not, Let's 560 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: know what you think. And this is more of a 561 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: hope question than anything else. It's not a Twitter pole. 562 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: It's a hope question here. It is one Bills Live. 563 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: What's the biggest difference you will notice in Josh Allen 564 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: from year one to year two. What's the biggest difference 565 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: you hope to notice? What are you looking for? Give 566 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 1: us a call full Line's open eight h three h 567 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 1: five fifty toll free outside Buffalo one eight eight eight 568 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 1: five fifty two five fifty or sending a tweet. We 569 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 1: got a tweet sheet coming up in a moment or two. Again, 570 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: what's the biggest difference you hope you notice in Josh 571 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: Allen from year one to year two. I know what 572 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 1: my answer to that is, Steve, and that's incorporation of 573 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: a complete passing game. We talked about this the other day. 574 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: A complete passing game, including some of the throws we 575 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: saw today, short passes, a quick passes over the middle, 576 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 1: a quick passing game which they did not really have 577 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: last year. We saw it today. Passes, the Cole Beasley 578 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 1: passes the backs coming out of the backfield, a live 579 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: of that yesterday. I'm looking for kind of the whole 580 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,439 Speaker 1: package of a passing offense, a coherent, effective NFL passing offense, 581 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: and I'm looking for that from Josh Allen. That would 582 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: be the thing that I would most hope for from 583 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: year one to year two. And they've got to They've 584 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: got to have both for me. You think about it, Yeah, 585 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 1: I think you'll notice that. But I think one reason 586 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna notice is because their offensive line is gonna 587 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: be better. Yeah, he's gonna have a time to he's 588 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: not gonna have to look back or look one place 589 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: and if it's covered, pull it down and run with it. 590 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,679 Speaker 1: He's gonna have time to go to another option. Like 591 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: he said today, even they were showing the Blitz they 592 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: dropped out in coverage. He knew where to go with 593 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: the football. And he's a year, he's a year deeper 594 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: into this offense, a year more familiar with it. He's 595 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: got just so much. He's got vastly more experienced than 596 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: he did a year ago. And you can say, wow, 597 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: he only had one but you know what that makes 598 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: all the difference in the world. It's hundreds of reps 599 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: in live NFL action that he got to take last 600 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:03,959 Speaker 1: year and film that he can study on himself, let 601 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: alone having new weapons, more time and better players around 602 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: him that are gonna change things vastly. And I just, 603 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: you know, it just feels so much more optimistic about 604 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 1: having this offense. Not you say you want to have 605 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: a viable passing game where he's gonna do I'd like 606 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 1: to see him having a run game of any kind. 607 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: I mean, they could not run the ball a lick 608 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 1: last year, and to have that back on the agenda 609 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 1: with Frank Gore and Lashawan McCoy, it's gonna make everything better, 610 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a ripple effect there too. So there's 611 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 1: so many new things to think about how this offense 612 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: could improve. And that doesn't mean it's going to but 613 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: man oh man, it's sure seems like it's going to 614 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: be easier to score points this year, and they're going 615 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: to be more points scored by this offense, which will 616 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: help the defense out. And the ripple effect of that 617 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: again is gonna be big. So when you see all 618 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: this stuff take shape and you go out and you 619 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: remind yourself of all the work they've done this last offseason, 620 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: you know, you know, Oscar optimist shows up to me again. 621 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 1: You know, two days into camp. Everybody's an optimist, right, Um, 622 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: let us know what you think. What are you hoping for? 623 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: What is the biggest difference you think you'll notice in 624 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: Josh Allen from year one to year two. Phone line's 625 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: wide open.

For all, we 635 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: thought we were radio only for a while and that 636 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 1: would really be tremendously damaging to Steve's ego not to 637 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: be on MSG today. Yeah, it's harder to let me 638 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: get away with that. It's hard to get out here, man. 639 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: We got we got a ton of equipment out here, 640 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: and these guys are around here and it's funny, not 641 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: funny because you and I don't have anything to do 642 00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: it right. It's all right, we might not get on 643 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: the air, but for you can see the level of 644 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 1: urgency rides and the crew and you know they're on 645 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 1: the their frantic phone calls trying to get the lineup 646 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: and uh, and they sweated it out. I think we 647 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: got up about fifteen minutes before we went on the air. 648 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: And I always used that thing where that's it's a 649 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 1: little one more level of degree of difficulty putting us 650 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: on hims. She's obviously like six degrees of difficulty radio 651 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: only you need electronic box and a phone line. That's 652 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:29,399 Speaker 1: about it, right and right and uh. But for TV, wow, 653 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: there's a lot more moving parts. Well, thanks all those guys, 654 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: our whole crew for putting the crew did a nice 655 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: job on the air today. Happy to be in the 656 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: air with you. I'd love to hear from you. Phole 657 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: lines open eight oh three five fifty toll free one 658 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty about anything 659 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: in particularly, what's the biggest difference you will notice in 660 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: quarterback Josh Allen from year one to year two. We 661 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: just talked to Josh a moment ago. We got Lorenzo 662 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: Alexander coming up on the show and Ded Brown from 663 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 1: w h E C no w RC TV. Now I've 664 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: screwed it enough twice. Ded Brown's coming up with a 665 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: sad two o'clock today give us his early impressions of 666 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: training camp. We've got an in depth thing coming up 667 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 1: at one Steve where we will go through a lot 668 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: of what we saw practice today. But I started again 669 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: into the news. It appeared like Jason Krum, who what 670 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: had a sore hamstring in the springtime, didn't get a 671 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,239 Speaker 1: full go. And we'll get an update on that from 672 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 1: John McDermot tomorrow. It looked like he was on the 673 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: side a little bit. Other than that, it looked like 674 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 1: everybody was good to go. This is important to note 675 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 1: the teamwork. First team offensive line we mentioned yesterday's offensive 676 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: line today very similar with one chain. So here's what 677 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: your first team offensive line looked like today. Dion Dawkins 678 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: at left tackle, Quentin Spain at left guard, Mitch Morse 679 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: at center, just like it was yesterday. Right guard, that's 680 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: where the switch was. Spencer Long got the first team 681 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: reps at right guard, and Cody Ford just like yesterday, 682 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: got the first team reps at right tackle. So Spencer 683 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: Long and Feliciano flipp Slope. Feliciano was a second team 684 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: offensive line today, a second team left to right and 685 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: Secki at left tackle. Whyatt Teller at left guard, Russell 686 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: Bodine at Feliciano what left guard, as you said, and 687 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: Ladrian Waddle at right tackle. That's what we saw up 688 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: front on the offensive lines. And they're also working Bodine 689 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: with a third team at left guard as well. He's 690 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: kind of stayed on the field with the number with 691 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 1: the threes with that third group that came in and 692 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: so Bodine's working at both guard and center, and you 693 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: got to think too that that's gonna be his ticket 694 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: as being the backup center slash guard, swing guy inside, 695 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: and then they'll have a swing guy outside, which will 696 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: give him seven guys on the roster, and then you know, 697 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: on game day, and I think maybe probably in certain situations, 698 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: they'll keep an eighth if a guy can can contribute 699 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: in other ways or if they feel like they need it. 700 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, but that's Bodine's ticket. He's got to be 701 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: as good a guard as at least one of the 702 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: other guys is a guard. So the offensive line remains 703 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: a focus of attention. Everybody's watching it. We didn't, and 704 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: Josh talked about it a little bit, but not a 705 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: whole lot when he was just with us last half hour. 706 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 1: But look, they're trying to find starters now two days 707 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: with four of the five starters set. Does that maintain 708 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: as they go forward, We don't know. Sean McDermot talked 709 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: about it this morning they go to the Buffalo Bills, 710 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: and his pre practice news conference today was asked about 711 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: the balance that he has to find between trying to 712 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: find the starters and trying to develop some chemistry among 713 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: those starters on the offensive line. Here's what John McDermott 714 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: said this morning. Yeah, I mean it's earlier that we 715 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: talk almost daily and sometimes twice a day to hey, 716 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: where are we going with the rep count, making sure 717 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,719 Speaker 1: we're giving every player an opportunity to show us what 718 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: they've got, and then also looking at it, you know, 719 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: big picture wise across the Hey, what would what would 720 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: our offensive line look like if we did this? And 721 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 1: moving pieces around? Um, that's all. That's all good this 722 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: time of year again with the goal of as we 723 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 1: talked yesterday, like about finding continuity and getting guys set. Yeah. Interesting, 724 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: see even again four of the five starting you know, 725 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: first teamers on the offensive line, we're the same as yesterday. 726 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: The loan exception, I mean right guard where Spencer Long 727 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 1: got first team reps. You see, how to move down 728 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 1: to number two. But you know, I don't think anything's decided. 729 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: I don't think anything's set, and it would not surprise 730 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: me at all over the next couple of days here 731 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 1: at training camp if some of those positions flip a 732 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: little bit, right, I think they are change. They absolutely 733 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: will flip, and it's it's going to be an ongoing process. 734 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: I said last yesterday, I think it's going to take 735 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: all the way until you know, last week of training camp. Listen, 736 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: they're gonna use every rep and every practice and every 737 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 1: day they can before they decide on their last five 738 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: starting offensive lineman. They're gonna use up all the time 739 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:32,719 Speaker 1: because they might have a you know, the guy might 740 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: have guys who emerge late. We've seen that a thousand 741 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: times Murph, where you see a guy who flashes early 742 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: in camp and say, wow, this guy's a shoe in 743 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, the last two weeks 744 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: of camp, he completely disappears. Can't make a play, can't 745 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: get open, can't catch the ball, whatever. And the same 746 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 1: as reverse. Some guys are slow starters. They it takes 747 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 1: them a while to get into camp, and then once 748 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 1: they get a little bit further into the playbook and 749 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: they get a little bit more into their belt, they 750 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: start to compete hard because they're more comfortable and mentally 751 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: and what they're supposed to be doing, and all of 752 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: a sudden they emerge as he's a pretty good player, 753 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: and they make the team. So they're gonna use every 754 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: last rep they can use all the way up until 755 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,479 Speaker 1: the final days before they finally announce or decide on 756 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: who their five starters are on our offensive line, as 757 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: they will with every position group. So so what about chemistry? 758 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 1: That secondary I think at this point is to get 759 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: them to get the right guys on the field. You know, 760 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 1: chemistry is gonna come when they start working together and 761 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: working together a lot. That'll come fast. But you gotta 762 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 1: get the best five guys you can get. Once you 763 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: get those guys, then you can work on chemistry if 764 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 1: you need to, because you know they're gonna have some 765 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: of that from what I've been talking about. Guys who 766 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: you know you're gonna they're gonna be sitting in the 767 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: room together, watching them, watching each other and talking, and 768 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 1: so they're gonna know each other pretty well at the 769 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: end of this training camp. So chemistry will come, and 770 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: certainly it'll be easier to come when they start working 771 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: together every rather than switching in switching out, it'll be easier. 772 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: And plus two, they're gonna feel it. I think the 773 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 1: players will be able to feel who's gonna be playing 774 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 1: with each other, who's gonna be um sitting next to 775 00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: you in those meetings, and also on the line when 776 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: you line up, they're gonna they're gonna start to feel 777 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: who it's gonna be. And um, there's four or the 778 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 1: five spots mean the same as yesterday, mean anything today 779 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 1: day two? In your mind? I don't think so. But 780 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: I don't think so. It could it could say something. 781 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: I think it says something about the four guys who 782 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 1: stayed on, you know, I think it says something about them. 783 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,959 Speaker 1: I think it also at this point it also says 784 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: something about what they saw in OTAs and Mini can't 785 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: all that stuff counts. So that's how they that's how 786 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: they're sorting they're sorting it out already. Um, we may 787 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: start seeing these guys shift less and less. Um. And 788 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,399 Speaker 1: then what happens is if you get your starting five 789 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:52,799 Speaker 1: and we start seeing those same five guys line up 790 00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 1: every day with Josh Allen, I think that pretty much 791 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: speaks for itself. And then you got to look back 792 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: at Okay, who are the next three guys, next three 793 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: or four guys. There will battles after this is gonna 794 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 1: be battle. But if we're here a week from today, 795 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 1: I believe we're here right next Friday, No, next Friday, 796 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: We're back in Newerfield. But Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, if we're 797 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,840 Speaker 1: here a week from today, say Friday, in that group, 798 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 1: four or five are the same. Now you got something 799 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 1: right now. Now you might even start talking about it, 800 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: you might have your group, But then you got to 801 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: start thinking about Okay, you know what happens in week 802 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 1: three of training Camper where you go down to Carolina, 803 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: you're practice with the Panthers and somebody gets a hangnail, 804 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: can't doesn't take a few reps in practice? Now, who 805 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: goes in for? That's when you start wondering who goes 806 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,279 Speaker 1: in for that guy? You know, then you've got Those 807 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: are the battles that really come down to depth and 808 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: deep into the season, when you do have a guy 809 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 1: nicked up, who's gonna be there to continue this? Often? 810 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: If you got this thing rolling, you know how bad 811 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: is it gonna hamstring you? If you've got a guy 812 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,800 Speaker 1: who can't go and you put somebody else in. So yeah, there, 813 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 1: I think it's more important to get the best five 814 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: guys playing the best position they can.

The tweet sheet the question 828 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 1: the biggest difference in Josh Allen from year one to 829 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 1: year two, Tiffany writes, into my opinion, he to become 830 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,400 Speaker 1: the face of the franchise and a true leader. You 831 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 1: can feel the confidence coming out of him as he 832 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: talks to the media. He carries himself like a ten 833 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 1: year vet. It's awesome to see him develop into a 834 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: complete player both off and on the field. Thankful he's 835 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: our quarterbacks. I think that's a pretty that's a sentiment 836 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 1: that's held by many people, Tiffany, I think you're right 837 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: about that. On and off the field. You look, you 838 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:00,759 Speaker 1: can feel the confidence. This is a different young man 839 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,840 Speaker 1: sitting with us here today last half hour than sat 840 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 1: here last year at this time. Even the vocabulary he uses, 841 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,439 Speaker 1: you know, even the even the words and the things 842 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 1: he chooses to talk about are completely different. And as 843 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,359 Speaker 1: you would expect him to be a little different. But um, 844 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:20,760 Speaker 1: he just exudes a confidence. And and for me, Murph, 845 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: he's eager. Yeah, you know what I mean, he said, 846 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 1: he I was this off season was too long. I 847 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: wanted to get here. I want to get Yeah, he's 848 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 1: just so eager to get on the field and play. 849 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 1: And he just you know, that's a that's a valuable commodity. 850 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:38,799 Speaker 1: And I you know, you just got to think that 851 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 1: his his attitude is probably a little bit infectious for 852 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 1: the guys around And we got also got from the 853 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: tweet sheet from Ralph says the biggest difference in Josh 854 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 1: Allen from year one to year two From Frank, he says, 855 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 1: more confidence, better decision making. He will have to improve 856 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: timing on the short stuff. Hopefully he missed some easy 857 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 1: ones last year, but every quarterback does. His talent and 858 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:03,320 Speaker 1: physical ability or special and his demeanor will allow for growth. 859 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 1: That's one of the things too. You know, I have 860 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:10,880 Speaker 1: said from the beginning, he's a sharp guy, and he 861 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: works hard, he's competitive, and he's all of those He's 862 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 1: got all these ingredients for a guy who is going 863 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 1: to get better and better and better and better and 864 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 1: work hard at getting better and continue to get better, 865 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 1: even you know when like the guy we see in 866 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 1: New England up there, what's his name, Yeah, Tom Brady 867 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,359 Speaker 1: has always been highly motivated to get better. That's been 868 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: the big carrot out there. And you see the same 869 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 1: thing with a guy like Josh Allen and all the 870 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 1: great players, Lorenzo Alexander, the guys who stick around for 871 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: a long time is because they always want to get 872 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 1: better and they're willing to work hard to do it. Yeah, 873 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,359 Speaker 1: those ingredients seem to be present and Josh and it's 874 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: going to be interesting to see the fruit of all 875 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 1: the labors put in this offseason. I'd like to go back, 876 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 1: and I will go back and listen to our interview 877 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: with him, because we did a great job. But no, 878 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,319 Speaker 1: his answer, I asked the part about in the middle 879 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 1: of practice today, the five or six hits in a 880 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 1: row and the asses, the quick ones, over the middle. 881 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: Steve talk about decision making. That was all that he 882 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 1: talked about in that segment. It's like, uh, you know, 883 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: I watched I had an eye on Frank Gorey and 884 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,800 Speaker 1: an eye on somebody going downfield. Coble Easy going downfield. 885 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 1: I mean, that's decision making, what he sees and what 886 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 1: he does with the ball. And you could tell how 887 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: excited he was about how that went today. Look, it 888 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 1: wasn't a spectacular deep touchdown sideline pass to John Brown, 889 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,840 Speaker 1: but those are good decisions being made, and he was 890 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 1: excited about that as anything I've seen him do since 891 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 1: he's been here. And it was funny too, because you 892 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 1: know the things that were going through the things he mentioned, 893 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 1: because they came in, they showed double a gap and 894 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: they dropped out into coverage, and I knew and he 895 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 1: you know, I knew. I could see Micah Hyde dropping 896 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 1: out into coverage. I knew I had Frank right away. 897 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 1: It was only third and two. Just wanted to get 898 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:46,319 Speaker 1: so I got it out ascome as I couldn't Frank 899 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:48,360 Speaker 1: get the first downstawn the field, move the sticks, let's go. 900 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,759 Speaker 1: All of that stuff was happening in like one two 901 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 1: point five and the ball was out and he says, 902 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: that was the best thing I did all day. Yeah, 903 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,760 Speaker 1: and he was right. It's probably right, and that speaks 904 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 1: to the fact he knows and all people. Everybody knows this, 905 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 1: but sometimes you have to say it to remind him. 906 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 1: You practice because you want to get better. You practice. 907 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 1: It's okay to fail in practice. You're working on stuff 908 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: you're not good at. In practice, that's what you work on, 909 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:15,120 Speaker 1: is the things you're not good at. You don't go 910 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:16,880 Speaker 1: out there and go through the stuff you're already good at. 911 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: You go through the stuff you're not good at. Him 912 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 1: to hear him talk like that, and you know, to say, 913 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,320 Speaker 1: I just want to take the quick completion, get the 914 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 1: first down, stay on the field, and move the sticks. 915 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: Those are all the things that we've you know that 916 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,799 Speaker 1: this team got crushed for not doing last year and 917 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 1: they know it. Ye last year at this time training 918 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 1: camp session number two, what was going through Josh's head, 919 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: we should asked him. My guess is he's probably thinking, 920 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: don't take a set, don't get set, get rid of 921 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: the ball. Now he's got like all these reads that 922 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:47,240 Speaker 1: he's making successfully and looking good doing it, he's dropping 923 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: back saying, yes, somebody hope get open. That's just But 924 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 1: now he's watching the safeties. He's he's and you notice too, 925 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 1: he didn't even say it. He says, I could see 926 00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: Mike out of the corner of my eye because he 927 00:40:57,600 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 1: wasn't looking at it right, So he's looking him all 928 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 1: off and then comes back and hits all of that stuff. 929 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: There's so many nuances to that little answer he gave 930 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 1: us about the best thing he did that today was 931 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 1: pretty encouraging.

I think I think 982 00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: I want to be here you are. I thought I 983 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:48,840 Speaker 1: was Oscar optimist. It's not optimism, it's interest. I'm eager 984 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 1: to learn more. I'm an empty vessel. I want to 985 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 1: be filled with Bill's knowledge by in a couple of weeks. 986 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 1: We got a game August eighth. You got a game 987 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 1: August eight. Yeah, we'll be doing Andrew Catalan. I'll be 988 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: back in town doing it. Yeah, CBS buddy, I think 989 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,320 Speaker 1: many of our fans are empty vessels, want more bills knowledge. 990 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 1: What's the biggest difference in Josh Allen from year one 991 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 1: to year two? What do you think? Give us a call? 992 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:11,799 Speaker 1: Eight oh three oh five fifty two three one eight 993 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 1: eight eight by fifty two five fifty On the tweet 994 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 1: sheet from Josh says, I believe I'll have better pocket 995 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 1: presents from year one to year two with a deeper 996 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,720 Speaker 1: understanding of the playbook coupled with trusting what he sees 997 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 1: downfield and improved mechanics. Josh touched on that a little bit, 998 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:27,839 Speaker 1: touched on it a little bit when I asked him 999 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 1: about Ken Dorsey. I mean it's a different meeting room 1000 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 1: than Josh was in last year here at training camp 1001 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,960 Speaker 1: at least right Ken Dorsey Matt Barkley was not here 1002 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,840 Speaker 1: last year. Obviously, Tyree Jackson was not here, and I 1003 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,280 Speaker 1: got the sense from Josh that he does have a 1004 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 1: deeper understanding, as Josh points out this Josh on Twitter, 1005 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 1: a deeper understanding of the playbook he has to after 1006 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 1: one year in That's the thing that showed up. That's 1007 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: that's going to make the biggest difference is one year 1008 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 1: of experience in the same offense. Sam Darnold, new offense. 1009 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:03,160 Speaker 1: You know, Baker Mayfield, new head coach, same offense, new 1010 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 1: head coach, new quarterback coach, all of that's new. You 1011 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 1: go to Josh Rosen, switched teams, new offense. The only 1012 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,800 Speaker 1: other guy would be Lamar Jackson. He's got the same 1013 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 1: deal going in Baltimore as he did last year. So 1014 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 1: he's got it. He's kind of got a leg up 1015 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 1: on the season. He's got the same offense. And but 1016 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 1: Josh Allen is a guy who you know that really helps, 1017 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,879 Speaker 1: really helps when you come back and you can kind 1018 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: of start to build on what you did last year 1019 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:34,359 Speaker 1: and you see some things for the second time, for 1020 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:36,959 Speaker 1: the third time, for the fifth time, for the tenth time, 1021 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 1: you just get better and more comfortable. Yep, and it'll 1022 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:42,359 Speaker 1: work for him, and it'll work at his advantage. Let's 1023 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,919 Speaker 1: go to a phone call here, Herban Webster, Hello, Herban, 1024 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 1: you're on the air with this Hi. I have a 1025 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 1: question regarding Hi. I believe when he replaced Williams at 1026 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 1: right tackle last year in Washington, he was graded out 1027 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 1: as being one of the best right tackles the league. 1028 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 1: Could we use him at right tackle and move Cody 1029 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 1: forward to a right guard? I'll hang up with you. 1030 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:11,320 Speaker 1: Could you could? Yeah, you could? They and they talked 1031 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 1: about that in the preseason. Um, it'll be interesting to 1032 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 1: see if Cody Ford is as good a guard or 1033 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 1: is a better guard that or a better right tackle 1034 00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 1: than Tye and Secki is a right tackle. You know 1035 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. If if it works out that Spencer 1036 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,520 Speaker 1: Long is a better right guard than ty and Secki 1037 00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 1: is a guard, then he'll get on the field and 1038 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 1: a Seci'll back up Cody Ford unless he's a better 1039 00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 1: right tackle than Cody Ford. So Cody Ford's gonna play 1040 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 1: the position that allows the guys around him to be 1041 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 1: the best. So if Inseci is a great right tackle 1042 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,319 Speaker 1: and Cody Ford's a better right guard, than any the 1043 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 1: other candidates you've got. Those are the guys you put on. 1044 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 1: Uh if Inseci plays right tackle better than say Spencer 1045 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,080 Speaker 1: Long plays right guard, that kind of thing, so here 1046 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: having to come, you know, compare a little apple's doors. 1047 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:03,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm making this clear as this 1048 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 1: makes you making sense. I do think McDermott was asked this. 1049 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 1: I think it was today, and there's a I think 1050 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:12,480 Speaker 1: the coaching step doesn't want to overload Cody forward, so 1051 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:14,279 Speaker 1: let's work him in at right tackle now a couple 1052 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 1: of days. Well, they don't want to overload him right, 1053 00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:18,239 Speaker 1: so let's not throw a guard at him yet. But 1054 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 1: maybe that's not exactly They may try that down the road. 1055 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,760 Speaker 1: They want to get him. They want to these young players, 1056 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 1: just like Josh. They want to spoon feed him a 1057 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:27,880 Speaker 1: little bit. They want to see him compete physically because 1058 00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,879 Speaker 1: they know it sooner or later they're gonna be able 1059 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:32,400 Speaker 1: to get the offense and their assignments and the mental 1060 00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 1: part of it infused into these guys. They know it 1061 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:38,080 Speaker 1: takes some time, but they want to see physically, when 1062 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 1: this guy's playing with confidence, can he compete? Can he 1063 00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 1: be one of our top five guys, So they'll spoon 1064 00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 1: feed it Cody forward a little bit to get him 1065 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,279 Speaker 1: comfortable with his assignments, so they can watch him compete 1066 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,799 Speaker 1: when he's mentally comfortable knowing he's doing the right thing, 1067 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 1: and he can just think about beating the guy in 1068 00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 1: front of him later on. Now, then they'll add some 1069 00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:58,759 Speaker 1: things on to him. They say, Okay, now we're gonna 1070 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:00,279 Speaker 1: try you at guard. Let's see what you can do. 1071 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 1: And then they'll let him. They'll spoon feed him a 1072 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:04,320 Speaker 1: little bit there and see how he works how to 1073 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,319 Speaker 1: reacts there physically. So there's a lot of that going on. 1074 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,520 Speaker 1: And that's just one of the guys of the fifteen 1075 00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 1: sixteen guys they've got in camp. So they got to 1076 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,719 Speaker 1: do that with fifteen sixteen, seventeen guys, and that's that's 1077 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:18,719 Speaker 1: really a hard thing to do. We'll talk more about 1078 00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 1: the O line.

So we got the 1133 00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:18,400 Speaker 1: chance to move in and you know, and kind of 1134 00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:20,759 Speaker 1: start that transition period as far as making that home 1135 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:23,279 Speaker 1: after we're done. And in the middle of that that 1136 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 1: trip that five weeks, we went down to Tyler, Texas 1137 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 1: and spend a week at Pine Cove Christian Family Camp 1138 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:31,720 Speaker 1: with Kyle Williams and his family, UM and his extending 1139 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:33,759 Speaker 1: family as well. And it was a good time. You 1140 00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:36,839 Speaker 1: go down there fellowship, let the kids play and kind 1141 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,400 Speaker 1: of hang out together for a week. I love your 1142 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 1: kids and his kids get together and it's yeah. Family, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 1143 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:47,760 Speaker 1: especially reading function as it may be in his family. 1144 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 1: His kids are, they're rolling around. Yeah, it turns into 1145 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:53,839 Speaker 1: just like it was with my brothers. You're right, you're 1146 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:55,920 Speaker 1: you do your kids do seem to be close with Kyle's. 1147 00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 1: And I was gonna ask you too, how's that this offseason? Ben? 1148 00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 1: I mean, they signed you to the one year deal. 1149 00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 1: You've jumped in. You you were at every OTA, you 1150 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:06,239 Speaker 1: were at every mini camp. Talk talk to us about 1151 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:08,399 Speaker 1: the differences you see in this team, and then both 1152 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,440 Speaker 1: the good and the bad. Um, it's been really good. Um. 1153 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,840 Speaker 1: I really like the progression of the insertion of the 1154 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:19,240 Speaker 1: guys that we brought in. Again, I think um Brandon 1155 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 1: and Shotted a great job of evaluating the free agent 1156 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 1: talent pool out there and bringing in guys that are 1157 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,879 Speaker 1: talented but high character work, guys that fit well into 1158 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:31,080 Speaker 1: our scheme. Really like the progression of Josh and Tremaine 1159 00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:34,160 Speaker 1: and them as leaders and really the faces of our 1160 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 1: franchise offensively and defensively respectively. Moving forward, those guys have 1161 00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:42,799 Speaker 1: grown immensely and their fundamentals, their technique, their leadership, and 1162 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:45,320 Speaker 1: I guess the worst thing is, you know, as obviously, 1163 00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 1: you know, not having number ninety five Kyle Williams out 1164 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:50,959 Speaker 1: there in the hole that he leads from leadership because 1165 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 1: you can't replace him because it's only one Kyle Williams 1166 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 1: thirteen years here. The way he approaches the game, there's 1167 00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:59,279 Speaker 1: just nobody like it. So we've had other guys have 1168 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:02,279 Speaker 1: an opportunity stand up, you know, from Micah Hodge and 1169 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer and just other guys. I'm really interested to 1170 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:07,879 Speaker 1: see how Trent does and his second year as well, 1171 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:09,799 Speaker 1: being healthy, can really see a big difference in the 1172 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 1: way he's moving. So I'm just excited all the way 1173 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 1: around the board as far as the potential that this 1174 00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:17,960 Speaker 1: team has. But like anything, every year, you gotta go 1175 00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:20,279 Speaker 1: out there and earn the right to win games. And 1176 00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:21,920 Speaker 1: it starts right here in training camp. I can ask 1177 00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 1: you about one of your team. It's on the defensive 1178 00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:26,000 Speaker 1: line and it's off the field, but Sean McDermott Mansion 1179 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:29,000 Speaker 1: today defensive defensive end. I believe he's an end or 1180 00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:33,120 Speaker 1: is it tackle? Kyle Peko's tackle tackle whose wife is 1181 00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:36,200 Speaker 1: suffering from non Hodgkins lymphoma. He reported the camp what 1182 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,600 Speaker 1: last night, yes, and met the team but just talk 1183 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:41,480 Speaker 1: about what this team has said to him about right here. 1184 00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:44,319 Speaker 1: You know, obviously it's a very hard time for him, 1185 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:47,719 Speaker 1: for Kyle and his family, but we have a lot 1186 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 1: of respect for him and who he is as a person, 1187 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,439 Speaker 1: and he understands and I think that's why he's here, 1188 00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:55,239 Speaker 1: how much we love him, how much we support him. Um. 1189 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:56,840 Speaker 1: I think he has a great family unit, and I 1190 00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 1: think he lives in Denver and they has a great 1191 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 1: support system there as well. But it's a hard decision, 1192 00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 1: you know, any time that you have really a tragedy 1193 00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 1: or some trials that you're going through with your family, 1194 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:11,200 Speaker 1: but also as a father and a husband, you have 1195 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 1: to provide for your family. There's always a hard decision 1196 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 1: to make. And I think with the people that he 1197 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:19,920 Speaker 1: has here, he feels comfortable coming because he understands the 1198 00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:22,600 Speaker 1: organization is aware of his situation, is open and letting 1199 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:24,600 Speaker 1: him go and come as he needs to to take 1200 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:26,920 Speaker 1: care of his family. And then also obviously at home 1201 00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:29,680 Speaker 1: he has a good, strong family unit as well. And Peco, 1202 00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:32,880 Speaker 1: I guess most people would consider him a roster bubble 1203 00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 1: type of player and have that in the back here mind, 1204 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 1: and this personal tragedy something you really want to be around. 1205 00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 1: It'll be extremely difficult the camp I would think, yeah, 1206 00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:43,279 Speaker 1: it's hard because now you're away this This is not 1207 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:45,479 Speaker 1: like he can go home at night and spend time 1208 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:47,000 Speaker 1: with his family. I know he has a new born 1209 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,359 Speaker 1: as well as whether as other kids, and so it 1210 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:52,360 Speaker 1: is a difficult time. But again, I think with the 1211 00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:55,200 Speaker 1: support system in place, he feels comfortable being able to leave, 1212 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 1: come here and have an opportunity to provide for his family, 1213 00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:01,439 Speaker 1: whether it's in Buffalo or somewhere else. Um and and 1214 00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:03,160 Speaker 1: and and you know, and it's always a hard decision. 1215 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,359 Speaker 1: But I think everybody you know, no matter what walk 1216 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 1: of life that you are in, you have tragedy of 1217 00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:11,600 Speaker 1: trials or setbacks or illnesses or whatever it may be. 1218 00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 1: But you have to find a way to still live 1219 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:17,560 Speaker 1: life and provide for your family and still be there 1220 00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 1: for them emotionally as well. And he'll do a good 1221 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:22,520 Speaker 1: job of that. And that's the issue too. And people 1222 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 1: don't really in some instances and some other industries, maybe 1223 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:28,360 Speaker 1: there is no deadline or maybe there is a timeframe 1224 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 1: where you could take some time and be with your family. 1225 00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:33,839 Speaker 1: Right the calendar rolls, the team rolls on the game. 1226 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:37,440 Speaker 1: The season is going to kick it off on September, 1227 00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:41,600 Speaker 1: early second week of September. Um, And if you're going 1228 00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:43,840 Speaker 1: to be in this business, you gotta be on that schedule, 1229 00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,040 Speaker 1: no matter what happens with your family. And that's why 1230 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,799 Speaker 1: it's such a difficult thing for young guys who have 1231 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:51,280 Speaker 1: a family to go through a tragedy like this, because 1232 00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 1: there is no stop in that train. You're on it 1233 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,080 Speaker 1: or you're off. Yeah. And the good thing about our organizations, 1234 00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:58,359 Speaker 1: you know shine allowing the report late. I know some 1235 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:00,640 Speaker 1: organizations you need to be here. It's like you said, 1236 00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:02,320 Speaker 1: a guy that's you're not quite sure he's gonna be 1237 00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:04,040 Speaker 1: here where he's at, you know you need to be here. 1238 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:07,319 Speaker 1: But our organization is very family oriented, very aware of 1239 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 1: what's going on in people's lives, and I think we 1240 00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:11,879 Speaker 1: care about the person more than the player. Um at 1241 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,359 Speaker 1: all levels. Uh, it always comes first about your family. 1242 00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 1: With the Bills in his fifteenth NFL training camp, that's right, 1243 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 1: I'm not trying. It's a ton of them, um, you know. 1244 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:27,719 Speaker 1: And I've been blessed and I'm happy to be at 1245 00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:30,120 Speaker 1: every single one. That means I'm still playing well, I'm 1246 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:32,520 Speaker 1: still enjoying it, going out there with the guys, having fun, 1247 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:35,280 Speaker 1: you know, running around with these twenty year old guys, 1248 00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:37,759 Speaker 1: and it's been fun. And so every year I think, 1249 00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:41,840 Speaker 1: for me, I think it's never gotten stagnant or or mundane, 1250 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,279 Speaker 1: because every coach that I've had, or every team I've 1251 00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 1: been on, they always emphasize something a little bit differently, 1252 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,800 Speaker 1: you know, whether situational or technique, and it's something that 1253 00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:51,480 Speaker 1: I can always improve on. So I go out there 1254 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 1: with a purpose not just to get through it, but 1255 00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:56,120 Speaker 1: to learn have fun. And then also for me, now 1256 00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:58,680 Speaker 1: be able to speak into other guys' lives or their 1257 00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:00,920 Speaker 1: technique or what's going on with him has added a 1258 00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:03,040 Speaker 1: new dimension to it that to really make it fun. 1259 00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:05,000 Speaker 1: This train this training camp, you come in and you've 1260 00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 1: got guys. Now that this team fully formed. Now you 1261 00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:12,080 Speaker 1: got Tremaine Edmonds in place. You've seen obviously, like everybody, 1262 00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:14,719 Speaker 1: has some changes in his game, the way he kind 1263 00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:18,320 Speaker 1: of his abilities and playing ability kind of mushroomed in 1264 00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:20,600 Speaker 1: the second half of last season. Defensive Rookie of the 1265 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 1: Month in December. So now you've had an off season 1266 00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:25,560 Speaker 1: with him and now he's been a full lap right 1267 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 1: in the NFL. You know what that you know what 1268 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:30,880 Speaker 1: I mean, he's seen everything he's gonna see once right right, 1269 00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:34,360 Speaker 1: So talk, I mean, how have you seen what's the 1270 00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:37,000 Speaker 1: next step for him this year? What do you expect? Um? Well, 1271 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 1: I think initially you can just see the confidence because 1272 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:41,440 Speaker 1: he understands what is being asked for him. He has 1273 00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:44,720 Speaker 1: a great grasp of the defense and that growth that 1274 00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:49,520 Speaker 1: you saw last year was really him understanding the concept 1275 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:51,440 Speaker 1: and the schemes that we're asking to play. And then 1276 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:53,600 Speaker 1: at the end of the season allowed him to play 1277 00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 1: fast because he no longer was thinking. He was playing 1278 00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 1: free and he's really just started OTAs and just from 1279 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:01,600 Speaker 1: where he started off last season, and he's just running 1280 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:04,040 Speaker 1: around playing free, not really thinking. Even if he makes 1281 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:06,920 Speaker 1: the wrong call, he's demonstrative with it and he's going 1282 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,320 Speaker 1: with it and everybody respects. It's not like that hesitation 1283 00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:11,160 Speaker 1: and him going back and forth with it man have 1284 00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:13,960 Speaker 1: been earlier last year. And that in itself is allowing 1285 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:17,320 Speaker 1: on guys around him to play faster because everybody's kind 1286 00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:19,040 Speaker 1: of waiting on him to make a call. And when 1287 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:22,080 Speaker 1: he's fast and he makes it, everybody hits confident. We're 1288 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:24,640 Speaker 1: all on the same page. We're all wrong, we're all right, 1289 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:26,600 Speaker 1: you know, and if when he makes the right call, 1290 00:58:26,640 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: most of the time, we're all right. So we're playing fast, 1291 00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:31,080 Speaker 1: playing together, and that's the biggest thing that I've seen. 1292 00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 1: And now he can work on, you know, you know, 1293 00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:36,360 Speaker 1: better angles to the ball, some of the other little 1294 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:38,640 Speaker 1: details that's gonna really take his game to the next level. 1295 00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:40,520 Speaker 1: The pass rush when he has an opportunity to rush 1296 00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:44,440 Speaker 1: using his length, because he does have a strong foundation 1297 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,080 Speaker 1: of the scheme and he no longer has to really 1298 00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:48,000 Speaker 1: think about where he has to be. Now I can 1299 00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 1: think about how dominating the guy lauriers with us sho. 1300 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 1: If you have a common question full nine's opening eighty 1301 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:58,200 Speaker 1: two eighty eight by fifty two fifty at some point 1302 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:01,120 Speaker 1: maybe tomorrow, maybe Sunday, maybe later, you guys are put 1303 00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:03,760 Speaker 1: pads on practice in fants. What will change then? How 1304 00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 1: will the tempo? How will the atmosphere changed? Um, it'll 1305 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:09,040 Speaker 1: pick up definitely, you know. Um at the line of 1306 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:11,440 Speaker 1: scrimmage in the trenches. H Now you can you know, 1307 00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:13,800 Speaker 1: kind of bull guy's long arm. Guys get a little 1308 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:16,200 Speaker 1: bit more physical. Um, you still have to be smart 1309 00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:18,919 Speaker 1: because you don't want anything to happen to Josh back there. 1310 00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 1: But it does pick up as far as guys coming 1311 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:24,160 Speaker 1: down here on run fits, you know, taking pad on 1312 00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:27,760 Speaker 1: on leads and stuff for myself, um in the run game. 1313 00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 1: And so you'll you'll start hitting a little bit more 1314 00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:33,560 Speaker 1: noise out there, especially doing inside run. You remind me 1315 00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 1: something watching Embedded. Did you see the Embedded series? Yeah, 1316 00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:38,280 Speaker 1: my kids were watching it and I sat down and 1317 00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 1: watch the segment they had with me and Mason. Yeah. Yeah, 1318 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 1: I was saying his name a whole lot in that. 1319 00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:47,439 Speaker 1: In that segment. It's like, man, you're tough with your son. Yeah, 1320 00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:49,800 Speaker 1: there was one thing. It was a small thing, but 1321 00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:52,040 Speaker 1: I think you were talking to uh, one of the rookies, 1322 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:55,160 Speaker 1: Darrell Johnson, right, the draft pick defensive linemen, and when 1323 00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:57,880 Speaker 1: you said that about keeping Josh healthy and you just 1324 00:59:58,000 --> 00:59:59,400 Speaker 1: kind of walked by him and say, hey, you don't 1325 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:01,520 Speaker 1: touch your quarter don't touch a quarterback. And yeah, that's 1326 01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:04,560 Speaker 1: kind of leadership. And it's it's subtle, and you didn't 1327 01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:06,920 Speaker 1: put them aside or anything. It's just little things and 1328 01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:11,200 Speaker 1: just speaking a little truth or you know, little tidbits 1329 01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:13,560 Speaker 1: to give the guys to help them obviously be here 1330 01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 1: because if you hurt Josh or knock him down, you 1331 01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:18,600 Speaker 1: have a tendency not to be here the next day. 1332 01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:21,040 Speaker 1: You know, that's just across the league if you're touching 1333 01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:24,320 Speaker 1: the starting quarterback um. But then just to understand that's 1334 01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 1: going to help our team be better. We gotta learn 1335 01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 1: if you want to be a good football team, you 1336 01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:30,160 Speaker 1: have to learn how to practice at a high level 1337 01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:31,840 Speaker 1: but in a in a safe way where you're not 1338 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:34,080 Speaker 1: putting guys at risk of getting injury, but still getting 1339 01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:36,200 Speaker 1: work done. And it's hard to run up against that 1340 01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:38,680 Speaker 1: red line and not go past it. But that's what 1341 01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:40,200 Speaker 1: you have to learn how to do. I know that 1342 01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:44,640 Speaker 1: it's early in camps. Two practices, but you had OTAs 1343 01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:46,760 Speaker 1: and the team building, all the exercise of the tug 1344 01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:49,520 Speaker 1: of wars and all this stuff we've seen. And now 1345 01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:52,800 Speaker 1: a couple of days in camp, what's the of the 1346 01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 1: young guys, the rookie class coming in? Anybody you're looking 1347 01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:57,320 Speaker 1: at and going, yeah, I see something in that guy. 1348 01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:59,560 Speaker 1: As anybody has impressed you or said, well there's a 1349 01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 1: guy with some ability, is there's some guy that I'm 1350 01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:03,080 Speaker 1: looking forward. There's a guy that I think is really 1351 01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:06,280 Speaker 1: going to contribute what strikes you any any of the rookies, 1352 01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 1: um stand out to you. Yea, It's still a little 1353 01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:11,800 Speaker 1: early for me to make that exumption because we haven't 1354 01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:13,800 Speaker 1: put the pads on. Because when you put the pads on, 1355 01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:17,080 Speaker 1: that physicality level steps up. And that's really that's really 1356 01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:19,520 Speaker 1: what I can say. Okay, that's a guy. He can 1357 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:21,840 Speaker 1: help us. He because that mentality. Right now, we're still 1358 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:25,560 Speaker 1: playing U soccer in a lot of different ways. So um, 1359 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:28,120 Speaker 1: once we get out there, give me, give me three 1360 01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:30,320 Speaker 1: or four more days to kind of evaluate guys we've 1361 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:31,840 Speaker 1: put those pads on, I'll have an answer for you. 1362 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:33,280 Speaker 1: You know this guy, and he's a guy that you 1363 01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:36,400 Speaker 1: brought to my attention. It was way back in the offseason. 1364 01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:39,360 Speaker 1: Mike Love, who was around the team last year. Look, 1365 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:41,480 Speaker 1: he hasn't been spectacular, but I did. Steve and I 1366 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:43,640 Speaker 1: are watching practice together and I said, Mike Love is 1367 01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:47,000 Speaker 1: a consistent guy who's looks like he's fitting right in 1368 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:50,000 Speaker 1: a defensive line second team. I mean, this guy, he 1369 01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 1: doesn't he doesn't mean mistakes right. He's a guy that's 1370 01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:55,280 Speaker 1: gonna add depth to our defensive line. You know, I 1371 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 1: think we have a lot of great competition going on, 1372 01:01:57,320 --> 01:01:59,280 Speaker 1: especially at the end position right now, as far as 1373 01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:01,080 Speaker 1: guy's going out then to be able to rotate in 1374 01:02:01,280 --> 01:02:04,440 Speaker 1: and step in when Trent and Jerry, um, you know, 1375 01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:07,040 Speaker 1: want to take a break or whatnot. Um. You know. 1376 01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,400 Speaker 1: So from Mike to Eddie, Uh to Eli, there's a 1377 01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:12,880 Speaker 1: lot of great competition going on. And Mike is a 1378 01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:15,800 Speaker 1: guy in year two that really understand has a sense 1379 01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:17,880 Speaker 1: of urgency. He's trying to get better every single day, 1380 01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:21,360 Speaker 1: working on this technique, you know, staying after practice, asking 1381 01:02:21,440 --> 01:02:24,320 Speaker 1: the right questions um. And he understands that he has to, 1382 01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:26,720 Speaker 1: you know, play at a high level, play consistently, because 1383 01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:28,640 Speaker 1: I always tell the guys, it's not the best player 1384 01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:31,640 Speaker 1: that plays on Sundays or gets opportunities to guys that 1385 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:33,800 Speaker 1: the coaches trust. So the less mental eras you have, 1386 01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:35,880 Speaker 1: because those is what beat you. It's not it's really 1387 01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,760 Speaker 1: talent that beat you. It's having those mental mistakes in 1388 01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:40,480 Speaker 1: the heat of the battle. And he's really taking a 1389 01:02:40,520 --> 01:02:43,120 Speaker 1: step forward as far as understanding what his assignment is 1390 01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:48,480 Speaker 1: when he's out there. Points he's good. I mean, obviously 1391 01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:51,720 Speaker 1: he's talented. He's still think yeah quick, I think he's 1392 01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 1: still swimming a little bit, you know, just still trying 1393 01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 1: to understand, you know, how to play football in this level. 1394 01:02:56,360 --> 01:02:57,640 Speaker 1: But that's going to come. When he was having a 1395 01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:00,720 Speaker 1: conversation before practice and he's like, Zoe, yeah, I'm still 1396 01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 1: trying to get some of the mental stuff down. I 1397 01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:03,680 Speaker 1: was like, hey man, just take your time with that. 1398 01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 1: But as you developed that, you're going to be able 1399 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 1: to play a lot faster and a lot quicker. I 1400 01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 1: think sometimes guys that come from transition, you know, from 1401 01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:15,080 Speaker 1: college to pros and are high picks, they put all 1402 01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:17,840 Speaker 1: this unnecessary pressure on themselves because they used to be 1403 01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:19,880 Speaker 1: and dominant every single play. And of course we want 1404 01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:21,480 Speaker 1: him to be dominant, just like t Remain and Josh 1405 01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:23,800 Speaker 1: lash Year. But there's a learning curve that you have 1406 01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:25,520 Speaker 1: to take and you have to learn how to how 1407 01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:27,960 Speaker 1: to win, how to how to set up guys because 1408 01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:29,920 Speaker 1: the talent level is at another level and you're not 1409 01:03:29,960 --> 01:03:31,480 Speaker 1: going to just be able to blow by guys. So 1410 01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:34,680 Speaker 1: just having those little conversations so you don't put this 1411 01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:38,680 Speaker 1: extra pressure expectation on yourself, and when you don't, you know, 1412 01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:42,320 Speaker 1: when you don't meet it, you kind of get down 1413 01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:44,400 Speaker 1: on yourself. So just trying to manage some of his 1414 01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:48,160 Speaker 1: expectations so that he's confident because he's a great player 1415 01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:50,320 Speaker 1: and has great ability and not allow some of maybe 1416 01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:51,720 Speaker 1: some of the things where he may have wanted the 1417 01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:54,520 Speaker 1: past to maybe get him down. I'm just and watching him. 1418 01:03:54,560 --> 01:03:56,760 Speaker 1: We'll talk about him in late today and watching him today. 1419 01:03:57,080 --> 01:04:00,200 Speaker 1: And obviously you know he's dominant college player. He's the 1420 01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:02,360 Speaker 1: quickness you continue that, but he probably I'm thinking he 1421 01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:05,840 Speaker 1: probably never his face big wide offensive linemen like this, 1422 01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,440 Speaker 1: and he getting golfed a couple of times today. Yeah, 1423 01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:10,360 Speaker 1: I can't get around. And that's something that he has 1424 01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:12,520 Speaker 1: to learn and develop. And that's after when we get 1425 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:14,160 Speaker 1: the pads on and you go through it a couple 1426 01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:16,120 Speaker 1: of times, you have Aaron and Bill cooking you up. 1427 01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:18,880 Speaker 1: You get Star Jordan myself helping him out as well. 1428 01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:21,960 Speaker 1: That's something that he'll develop because it is different. I 1429 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:24,880 Speaker 1: mean you do. I mean Ty and Quinton and Spencer. 1430 01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:27,560 Speaker 1: I mean there's some big some big men you know, 1431 01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:31,880 Speaker 1: go right for anybody to handle, you know, at any 1432 01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:33,760 Speaker 1: point of your career. And if you a guy that's 1433 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:37,000 Speaker 1: more of a speed um, you know, finas power guy 1434 01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:39,560 Speaker 1: and you're smaller, and sometimes it takes a little bit 1435 01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:41,840 Speaker 1: of an adjustment. Okay, how do I beat these guys? 1436 01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:43,680 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna win every single time, but what do 1437 01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:45,480 Speaker 1: I do to set them up? How do I play 1438 01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:49,000 Speaker 1: a double team? Um within my skill set that I've 1439 01:04:49,040 --> 01:04:51,800 Speaker 1: been given, and his leverage and is in his um 1440 01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:54,440 Speaker 1: low center of gravity. He's gonna have to learn how 1441 01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:56,160 Speaker 1: to really use that. So you've been on on the 1442 01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:58,360 Speaker 1: other side watching your quarterback. What do you think about 1443 01:04:58,360 --> 01:05:00,480 Speaker 1: the guy taking snaps on the offense? Is he different 1444 01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:02,880 Speaker 1: from the guy that was in a three way battle 1445 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:07,400 Speaker 1: last year? Confidence? I think being the guy you know 1446 01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:10,600 Speaker 1: early on and not trying to compete, I mean that 1447 01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:12,240 Speaker 1: adds a lot of stress. So I think he's really 1448 01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:15,240 Speaker 1: been able to focus on the offense and other things 1449 01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:17,160 Speaker 1: and not worry about Okay, what is this guy doing? 1450 01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:18,360 Speaker 1: Am I going to be able to play him? I 1451 01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:20,560 Speaker 1: gonna earn that spot. He's really been able to grasp 1452 01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:23,480 Speaker 1: the offense. He has a better command of it. I 1453 01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:27,240 Speaker 1: think guys are like he saw last year, gravitates to Josh. 1454 01:05:27,280 --> 01:05:30,760 Speaker 1: He just has a natural knack of leadership and leading guys. 1455 01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:32,800 Speaker 1: But the biggest thing is just watching him from a 1456 01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:36,080 Speaker 1: technique standpoint, I think placement has been really good, looking 1457 01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:38,160 Speaker 1: guys off and coming back to maybe his second or 1458 01:05:38,240 --> 01:05:41,560 Speaker 1: third option. The touch on the ball has been excellent 1459 01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:43,480 Speaker 1: as well. And I really saw that OTAs you know, 1460 01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:45,840 Speaker 1: just some of the balls that you normally would you know, 1461 01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:50,080 Speaker 1: a checkdown or an angle route, he was firing in there. 1462 01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:52,040 Speaker 1: Now he has a little bit of touch, guys catching 1463 01:05:52,080 --> 01:05:53,880 Speaker 1: and run instead of like whoa, you know what what 1464 01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:56,520 Speaker 1: you're throwing at me? And that makes a big difference. 1465 01:05:56,560 --> 01:05:57,920 Speaker 1: You know, you can have a big arm, but if 1466 01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:00,920 Speaker 1: you can't make the throws and have precision on him, 1467 01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:05,800 Speaker 1: sometimes that talent can go um, can be underwhelming and since. 1468 01:06:05,880 --> 01:06:08,120 Speaker 1: But he's really taking that next step and I think 1469 01:06:08,120 --> 01:06:09,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna that's gonna be as biggest thing that you 1470 01:06:09,720 --> 01:06:11,680 Speaker 1: see this year, his touching placement of balls. A couple 1471 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:14,080 Speaker 1: of minutes up for Lorenzo Alexander, I want to move 1472 01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:16,480 Speaker 1: on from a training camp to some other issues with you. 1473 01:06:17,120 --> 01:06:19,600 Speaker 1: We love talking about other stuff with you, but we've 1474 01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:21,919 Speaker 1: only had two practices and you've been around fifteen years. 1475 01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:23,680 Speaker 1: So you get a chance now to tell Steve and 1476 01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:26,040 Speaker 1: I relax, Fellows, it's two practices, right. We don't want 1477 01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:30,560 Speaker 1: to of course, kind of get big observations and yeah, 1478 01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:34,040 Speaker 1: because we haven't had football for five weeks, so people 1479 01:06:34,200 --> 01:06:36,320 Speaker 1: you know, and obviously you know, the season is right 1480 01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:39,840 Speaker 1: around the corner and everybody is excited around the league 1481 01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:41,600 Speaker 1: because everybody has a chance right now, and you're trying 1482 01:06:41,600 --> 01:06:43,360 Speaker 1: to figure out who are those guys who are gonna 1483 01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:45,640 Speaker 1: be those fifty three guys that help you along with 1484 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:47,560 Speaker 1: the practice squad to get you to where you want 1485 01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:49,560 Speaker 1: to be, and that's in the playoffs and obviously competing 1486 01:06:49,560 --> 01:06:52,640 Speaker 1: for a championship. And so I understand, you know, the 1487 01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:55,280 Speaker 1: eagerness and a lot of the young guys coming with 1488 01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:57,440 Speaker 1: that same mentality as well. And you almost, yeah, you 1489 01:06:57,520 --> 01:07:00,200 Speaker 1: almost wore out before you can get started. And then 1490 01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:02,280 Speaker 1: you have the first two days, like, man, we got 1491 01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:04,040 Speaker 1: how many more weeks it is, I'm already wore out 1492 01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:08,360 Speaker 1: mentally that you made before about for a rookie or 1493 01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 1: a guy on the bubble, every snap is the most important. 1494 01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:13,840 Speaker 1: You see, we were watching the ride wide receiver and 1495 01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:16,120 Speaker 1: you see these you know, these undrafted rookie like David 1496 01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:19,240 Speaker 1: Sills and easily Nick easily coming through and they're catching 1497 01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:21,200 Speaker 1: the ball or they make it catch in practice and 1498 01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:24,480 Speaker 1: and I remember. I was the exact same way you 1499 01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:27,600 Speaker 1: cat in teamwork. You catch a ball in teamwork, you 1500 01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:30,720 Speaker 1: are convinced that you're gonna be all pro. You know, 1501 01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna make the team. It's all gonna go the 1502 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:34,880 Speaker 1: way you envisioned it is. It's gonna be great. And 1503 01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:36,640 Speaker 1: you just convinced that for that one play, and then 1504 01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:38,919 Speaker 1: next time you come in you run the wrong route. 1505 01:07:39,040 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 1: The quarterback looked at you had to come off you 1506 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:44,440 Speaker 1: because you were all Coulter. You didn't win anyway, and 1507 01:07:44,560 --> 01:07:46,040 Speaker 1: you're thinking, I don't know what I'm doing out here. 1508 01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:51,280 Speaker 1: I'm not They're gonna they're gonna cut me before a shower, right, 1509 01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:55,080 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, and that right, that ball coaster, and 1510 01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:57,560 Speaker 1: it is one hundred percent belief, and that you're gonna 1511 01:07:57,600 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 1: make it, one hundred percent belief that you ain't gonna 1512 01:07:59,800 --> 01:08:04,280 Speaker 1: make it off the field. Yeah, and that's exhausted, it is. 1513 01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:06,960 Speaker 1: I was that guy too, you know, being undrafted, trying 1514 01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:08,720 Speaker 1: to figure it out. You know, you make a great play, 1515 01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:10,640 Speaker 1: bad play, it's like, oh my god, the coach is 1516 01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:13,520 Speaker 1: ripping you, you know, and they're gonna come get me, 1517 01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:15,160 Speaker 1: you know, as the same man coming to get you 1518 01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:17,880 Speaker 1: and that's something that you have to learn to cope with, 1519 01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:20,200 Speaker 1: and I think you have to learn to deal with. 1520 01:08:20,320 --> 01:08:23,160 Speaker 1: And Sean does a great job of talking about a 1521 01:08:23,240 --> 01:08:28,160 Speaker 1: concept of kaison and that's consistently rising with your progression 1522 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:30,800 Speaker 1: and not riding that wave of ups and downs, but 1523 01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:33,320 Speaker 1: kind of staying even killed for the most part. And 1524 01:08:33,400 --> 01:08:36,840 Speaker 1: it's something that you have to intentionally practice because it's 1525 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:39,439 Speaker 1: hard to do because we all are emotional people. Football 1526 01:08:39,479 --> 01:08:42,800 Speaker 1: is an emotional game, and we, I think all have 1527 01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:44,760 Speaker 1: gotten too a habit, you know, naturally, just to kind 1528 01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:48,080 Speaker 1: of ride how you feel emotionally. But God's with maturity, 1529 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:49,960 Speaker 1: you know, in life as well as when you're playing, 1530 01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:52,920 Speaker 1: you learn how to see past the emotion of how 1531 01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:56,360 Speaker 1: you're currently feeling and make a decision based on you know, practicality, 1532 01:08:56,560 --> 01:09:01,640 Speaker 1: reason and wisdom and experience versus the emotion of the play. Yeah, right, 1533 01:09:01,880 --> 01:09:03,800 Speaker 1: last thing I got for you, and it has something 1534 01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:05,360 Speaker 1: to do. We're gonna change this such as you My 1535 01:09:05,520 --> 01:09:09,360 Speaker 1: last question, how likely is an eighteen game schedule? Unlikely? 1536 01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:12,160 Speaker 1: From my perspective, I mean, I don't I don't see 1537 01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:14,880 Speaker 1: it happening at all, even with the nuance, you know, 1538 01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:18,080 Speaker 1: I know you even talked about Yeah, tass, I mean, 1539 01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:20,080 Speaker 1: I mean it, and it has sprouted. I don't know 1540 01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:22,200 Speaker 1: if you were talking y'all had like an internal group, 1541 01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:27,479 Speaker 1: but it has sprouted. Yeah, yeah, like he was talking 1542 01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:29,519 Speaker 1: to the right people. But it's been brought up a 1543 01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 1: couple of times. Sixteen games. I'll tell you this. Yeah, 1544 01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:34,680 Speaker 1: and what about this though, say, for instance, I'm just 1545 01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:37,519 Speaker 1: like you and I are I'm i'm ownership and yeah, 1546 01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:41,719 Speaker 1: we want an eighteen game schedule. We'll be willing to say, 1547 01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:47,479 Speaker 1: guarantee your contracts. We may talk about it. Yeah, that's 1548 01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:50,599 Speaker 1: a hesitation, right, that's like wow, okay, Or what about 1549 01:09:52,280 --> 01:09:55,680 Speaker 1: there's a ton of stuff. Make the rosters bigger, you know? No, 1550 01:09:56,400 --> 01:10:00,160 Speaker 1: uh not roster's bigger. What about because because because a 1551 01:10:00,240 --> 01:10:02,759 Speaker 1: number of things, it's a number of things contracts guarantee 1552 01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:06,360 Speaker 1: and contracts would make you maybe increasing the percentage and 1553 01:10:06,479 --> 01:10:09,400 Speaker 1: guarantee our contracts. Oh okay, well maybe right. I mean, 1554 01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:12,000 Speaker 1: so there's a lot of, you know, things, because I 1555 01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:14,679 Speaker 1: think when you talk when you talk about CBA, there's 1556 01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:16,920 Speaker 1: no there's nothing that is one off of each other. 1557 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:19,759 Speaker 1: So you just can't talk about eighteen games or money, 1558 01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 1: or player safety or former players pensions. It's all woven together. 1559 01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:29,519 Speaker 1: And that's what makes things so complicated because certain our 1560 01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:32,280 Speaker 1: owners want something, players want something, and then so where 1561 01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:34,200 Speaker 1: does that we where is that at all mess together? 1562 01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:38,000 Speaker 1: So it's very complicated situation. And my point about saying 1563 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:42,560 Speaker 1: all that is, everything's possible, but you gotta make it 1564 01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:44,200 Speaker 1: worth it, right. Yeah, if you give them, if you 1565 01:10:44,320 --> 01:10:48,280 Speaker 1: give them back to fifty one percent, take away the 1566 01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:50,920 Speaker 1: stadium credits or divide the stadium credits, put it into 1567 01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:54,400 Speaker 1: the whatever, and guarantee their contracts or at least guarantee 1568 01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:58,320 Speaker 1: what seventy five percent of the contract guarantee something, then 1569 01:10:58,360 --> 01:11:01,639 Speaker 1: the players will be like, you know, a couple extra 1570 01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:04,280 Speaker 1: weeks less preseason, you know, then it comes on it 1571 01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:09,040 Speaker 1: becomes a possibility. But it's just you're negotiating, right. Both 1572 01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:11,280 Speaker 1: sides want it all, right, Oh yeah, they want us 1573 01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:13,519 Speaker 1: to work more for less. We want to work less 1574 01:11:13,800 --> 01:11:16,040 Speaker 1: for more. You know what I mean exactly we talked 1575 01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:19,040 Speaker 1: to you about, Yeah, we talked to you about the 1576 01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:22,000 Speaker 1: CBA Executive Committee of the NFLPA is Yeah. Yeah, this 1577 01:11:22,040 --> 01:11:23,840 Speaker 1: is an old swish. I'm just right, you know, but yeah, 1578 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:25,880 Speaker 1: you're in the middle of this and they've talked about 1579 01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:29,559 Speaker 1: having productive meetings already. Yeah, we're two years out. That's 1580 01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:32,160 Speaker 1: good or just meaningless? What do you think? It's goodness 1581 01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:34,160 Speaker 1: sense that we're talking and sitting down and trying to 1582 01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:37,200 Speaker 1: figure out what each side is now. But at the 1583 01:11:37,320 --> 01:11:39,200 Speaker 1: end of the day, I don't know. You don't have 1584 01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:41,360 Speaker 1: real movement until you have to have real movement. Yeah, 1585 01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:44,080 Speaker 1: and so that's kind of where we're ating deadlines. You know, 1586 01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:46,720 Speaker 1: still two years out. So things have been cordial and 1587 01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:50,160 Speaker 1: we've been talking back and forth, um, but there's really 1588 01:11:50,640 --> 01:11:53,000 Speaker 1: no deal getting done anytime soon. And so you know, 1589 01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:55,400 Speaker 1: from a player's perspective, you know, our message is always 1590 01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:58,040 Speaker 1: make sure you save your money, because if you really 1591 01:11:58,160 --> 01:12:00,639 Speaker 1: want to stand on the hill or down the hill 1592 01:12:00,720 --> 01:12:03,200 Speaker 1: for a bigger percentage, or be able to give former 1593 01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:05,640 Speaker 1: players bigger pitch ins or any you have to be 1594 01:12:05,720 --> 01:12:08,040 Speaker 1: able to survive missing games, and so you need to 1595 01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:11,360 Speaker 1: get your financials in order, your family and order, so 1596 01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:14,559 Speaker 1: that if that's what, if that's what we want collectively 1597 01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:17,000 Speaker 1: as players, we have to be willing to miss games, 1598 01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:18,720 Speaker 1: which we didn't do last time. You have to pay them. 1599 01:12:18,760 --> 01:12:21,280 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just you have to because from their perspective, 1600 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:23,560 Speaker 1: there's no reason to be in if they don't have to. 1601 01:12:23,920 --> 01:12:26,120 Speaker 1: And the only thing that makes in my mind, that 1602 01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:29,599 Speaker 1: makes people that are billionaires and money businessmen is when 1603 01:12:29,640 --> 01:12:33,320 Speaker 1: they lose money. That's the only thing that really makes 1604 01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:38,439 Speaker 1: them move at any time. A welcome to ye. I 1605 01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 1: was a part of the nineteen eighty seven players strike. 1606 01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:42,720 Speaker 1: We struck for four games, and that's when they brought 1607 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:47,040 Speaker 1: in replacement players, right, and it didn't go well for them, 1608 01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:50,360 Speaker 1: and it was hard for us, but um, you know, 1609 01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:52,400 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do. I played eleven more years 1610 01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:56,479 Speaker 1: after that strike, and in the end, you know, you 1611 01:12:56,520 --> 01:12:59,000 Speaker 1: got to say that I think we turned the corner right, 1612 01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:05,280 Speaker 1: right change. It took a lot stand out with picket sign. 1613 01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:07,400 Speaker 1: It was ugly, Yeah, it was ugly on both sides, 1614 01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:11,320 Speaker 1: and it wasn't pretty right, but for the players, that 1615 01:13:11,479 --> 01:13:12,960 Speaker 1: is what it took that time. I don't know that 1616 01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:15,679 Speaker 1: it'll take that this time, but that's what it took. 1617 01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:18,080 Speaker 1: So we'll see where what happens. I mean, So it's 1618 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:19,640 Speaker 1: a lot of things that go into it. Obviously got 1619 01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:21,720 Speaker 1: two years, but uh well, I just want to make 1620 01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:23,599 Speaker 1: sure our guys are prepared for the worst, and that's 1621 01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:26,400 Speaker 1: always what you have to do because if you really 1622 01:13:26,479 --> 01:13:28,400 Speaker 1: want something, you have to be at willing to sacrifice 1623 01:13:28,439 --> 01:13:31,120 Speaker 1: to maybe send immediate game for future game and the 1624 01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:33,639 Speaker 1: wealth of the movement and betterment of the game for players. 1625 01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:35,560 Speaker 1: That's a tough argument when games only last three or 1626 01:13:35,560 --> 01:13:37,800 Speaker 1: four years. Yeah, it is hard. It is hard, but 1627 01:13:38,120 --> 01:13:39,200 Speaker 1: I mean at the end of the day, you have 1628 01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:41,120 Speaker 1: to Yeah, you know, that's a question for you. And 1629 01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:44,960 Speaker 1: back to training camp. What's the biggest change fifteen training camp? 1630 01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:47,639 Speaker 1: How was this camp? And I'm not talking about your 1631 01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,120 Speaker 1: Carolina your first year. I mean, yeah, that was crazy, 1632 01:13:50,240 --> 01:13:52,800 Speaker 1: but that's old school. Coach changed on those fifteen years 1633 01:13:52,880 --> 01:13:57,080 Speaker 1: at training camp. Nothing. Uh, player safety better now it's 1634 01:13:57,120 --> 01:13:58,880 Speaker 1: way better. I mean we don't practice two days. I 1635 01:13:58,960 --> 01:14:01,040 Speaker 1: mean we didn't have this. We makeupier. When I first 1636 01:14:01,080 --> 01:14:02,920 Speaker 1: got in these first two days, we would have already 1637 01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:05,600 Speaker 1: had four practices, padded practices. I would have had an 1638 01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:08,840 Speaker 1: answer for Steve, which rookie is standing out. You probably 1639 01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:11,040 Speaker 1: would have had a couple of guys go down already. Yeah. 1640 01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:14,519 Speaker 1: I mean, so the game has changed because it's no 1641 01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:17,439 Speaker 1: longer really a battle of attrition. I mean, this guy's 1642 01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:20,240 Speaker 1: out here now that can play the game. Now but 1643 01:14:20,439 --> 01:14:23,280 Speaker 1: could not have survived when I first got in the league, 1644 01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:25,680 Speaker 1: and and and so it's opened it up to a 1645 01:14:25,840 --> 01:14:29,040 Speaker 1: more athletic, skilled game. And that's the biggest difference that 1646 01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:34,160 Speaker 1: I've seen year fifteen verses year one. Thank ye, Alexander. 1647 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:37,240 Speaker 1: The Friday Lowdown with Lorenzo, Alexander, Steve and I coming 1648 01:14:37,240 --> 01:14:39,640 Speaker 1: back with more.

His insight into what training camp and 1678 01:16:03,520 --> 01:16:06,840 Speaker 1: how has changed was really interesting about there are guys 1679 01:16:06,880 --> 01:16:09,360 Speaker 1: who can kind of survive a training camp now that 1680 01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:11,760 Speaker 1: would not have been able to year goes. And it's 1681 01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:15,160 Speaker 1: a more athletic and safe game now. Um, it's opened 1682 01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:17,599 Speaker 1: it up to make sure that every athlete that's worthy 1683 01:16:17,640 --> 01:16:19,280 Speaker 1: of it at least has a chance to survive in 1684 01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:22,720 Speaker 1: the league, you know, because you're not taking headshots all 1685 01:16:22,760 --> 01:16:24,639 Speaker 1: the time, you know, and you're not getting laid out. 1686 01:16:24,720 --> 01:16:26,200 Speaker 1: He's right, a couple of years ago, there'll be a 1687 01:16:26,240 --> 01:16:28,400 Speaker 1: couple of guys down already after two practices. Yeah, it 1688 01:16:28,400 --> 01:16:31,519 Speaker 1: will be four practices in. Think about that, you had to, 1689 01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:35,920 Speaker 1: you know, to practices in. That's and guys down, guys 1690 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:38,560 Speaker 1: getting hurt, and this acclamation pod they even put the 1691 01:16:38,560 --> 01:16:41,960 Speaker 1: pads on. This is an acclamation period strictly four getting 1692 01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:44,519 Speaker 1: guys ready to put pads on. Did you never happen 1693 01:16:44,640 --> 01:16:46,360 Speaker 1: on your way out to the field today? Behind us 1694 01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:48,680 Speaker 1: in Groundie Stadium, right outside the locker room, they have 1695 01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:52,479 Speaker 1: like a team. It looks like by unit stretch right. 1696 01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:55,920 Speaker 1: It looked like yoga principles and stretching before practice. I 1697 01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:57,840 Speaker 1: never saw that before training. Yeah, And I was out 1698 01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:01,280 Speaker 1: there like, yeah, Matt Bark He's throwing like this twenty 1699 01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:03,360 Speaker 1: pound medicine ball up against the wall and bouncing it 1700 01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:05,360 Speaker 1: back to himself. I was like, in that moment, I 1701 01:17:05,520 --> 01:17:08,519 Speaker 1: was so glad I was retired. I was like, man, 1702 01:17:09,080 --> 01:17:12,080 Speaker 1: that's like he's warming up. Yeah, warming up. They warm 1703 01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:15,559 Speaker 1: up extensively. It's crazy. Yeah. Our question today on Twitter, 1704 01:17:16,360 --> 01:17:18,040 Speaker 1: and we don't have a poll, but it's a question 1705 01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:19,880 Speaker 1: we'd like to hear from it. We got phone lines open. 1706 01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:21,840 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. We had him on the show in the 1707 01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:23,960 Speaker 1: first hour.

Back to that in a moment, But 1718 01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:51,680 Speaker 1: a couple of our observations about training camp. Every day 1719 01:17:51,720 --> 01:17:53,920 Speaker 1: Steve and I come out here and throw the spot 1720 01:17:53,960 --> 01:17:56,800 Speaker 1: line at a guy as we watch practice, and we 1721 01:17:57,439 --> 01:18:00,160 Speaker 1: make a concerted effort to watch that guy, not just 1722 01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:03,360 Speaker 1: him all practice long, but spend extra time watching that guy. 1723 01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:06,240 Speaker 1: Our camp. Spotlight today day to a training camp falls 1724 01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:10,240 Speaker 1: on first round draft pick and Oliver defensive tackle free technique, 1725 01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:12,880 Speaker 1: and as they got they got to do extensive teamwork today. 1726 01:18:12,880 --> 01:18:15,919 Speaker 1: It started out slowly Steve, but at Oliver getting consistent 1727 01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:18,680 Speaker 1: second team reps at the three technique and I think 1728 01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:21,320 Speaker 1: that's interesting. And Lorenzo talked a little bit about that 1729 01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:24,519 Speaker 1: he's quick. At Oliver is quick. He's playing alongside Mike 1730 01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:27,559 Speaker 1: Love and Harrison Phillips on the inside and shack Lass 1731 01:18:27,600 --> 01:18:29,559 Speaker 1: on the defensive Aunt on the outside. With the twos, 1732 01:18:29,600 --> 01:18:31,960 Speaker 1: that's a pretty good group. He's quick and he's able 1733 01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:35,680 Speaker 1: to try to get pressure on quarterbacks. But I ran 1734 01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:38,240 Speaker 1: this by Lorenzo and look, I don't think it's a problem, 1735 01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:41,840 Speaker 1: but he's not used to it seems to me going 1736 01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:45,799 Speaker 1: up against massive offensive lineman, which is what he faces 1737 01:18:45,840 --> 01:18:47,360 Speaker 1: when he's out there. Even with the twos. You know 1738 01:18:47,439 --> 01:18:50,600 Speaker 1: he's up against in Ski and Teller and Bodai and 1739 01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:53,360 Speaker 1: and Feliciano, and these are big men, and you know 1740 01:18:53,479 --> 01:18:56,160 Speaker 1: he's not able to it's not the college football anymore. 1741 01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:58,360 Speaker 1: He's not just able to run around people. He'll get 1742 01:18:58,439 --> 01:19:01,519 Speaker 1: hung up sometimes on the offensive lineman. His quickness is 1743 01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:05,160 Speaker 1: still an amazing asset. He tracks down plays from behind. 1744 01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:07,559 Speaker 1: I saw that a couple of times today. He's quick 1745 01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:09,840 Speaker 1: off the snap. I mean he just jumps as soon 1746 01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:12,840 Speaker 1: as the ball is snap. And it's only two practices in. 1747 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:14,640 Speaker 1: I'd look to see more from Matt Olibury. I had 1748 01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:16,280 Speaker 1: a good time watching him today. Can learn a lot 1749 01:19:16,320 --> 01:19:18,640 Speaker 1: watching them. I think it's everything's gonna change when they 1750 01:19:18,720 --> 01:19:21,840 Speaker 1: put pads on for him. I think he's gonna take 1751 01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:26,400 Speaker 1: a little bit of the hesitancy off of himself. He also, um, 1752 01:19:26,680 --> 01:19:28,680 Speaker 1: it's gonna get it. Probably give him a chance to 1753 01:19:28,760 --> 01:19:30,720 Speaker 1: get out in the three technique. A lot of this today. 1754 01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:32,519 Speaker 1: They were doing some nickel stuff and they had him 1755 01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:36,160 Speaker 1: playing right defensive tackle, so on the other side, off 1756 01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:38,240 Speaker 1: the off the left guard of the offense rather than 1757 01:19:38,280 --> 01:19:41,640 Speaker 1: the right guard of the offense. And he um, and 1758 01:19:41,840 --> 01:19:45,040 Speaker 1: they were rushing the passer um and you know, quite honestly, 1759 01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:47,120 Speaker 1: you can't rush the passer when you're not in pads, 1760 01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:50,760 Speaker 1: you know. So for him and Lorenzo also said listen, 1761 01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:52,960 Speaker 1: even though and for for guys like you and me 1762 01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:55,040 Speaker 1: and fans and think, well, guy, all you gotta do 1763 01:19:55,080 --> 01:19:56,320 Speaker 1: is put your hand on the ground with the ball 1764 01:19:56,360 --> 01:19:59,120 Speaker 1: snap just go get the quarterback. Well, there's all there's 1765 01:19:59,360 --> 01:20:01,120 Speaker 1: all kinds of stuff you have to do with shading 1766 01:20:01,200 --> 01:20:02,880 Speaker 1: word the word do they want you to line up 1767 01:20:02,880 --> 01:20:05,439 Speaker 1: because where you line up tells the offense a little 1768 01:20:05,439 --> 01:20:08,479 Speaker 1: about something about the defense and something. And they want 1769 01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:10,360 Speaker 1: you to tell them a certain thing when you got 1770 01:20:10,400 --> 01:20:12,040 Speaker 1: your hand on the ground, So you got to line 1771 01:20:12,120 --> 01:20:14,360 Speaker 1: up in the right spot. You gotta angle the right 1772 01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:18,320 Speaker 1: thing you gotta and in doing so, that's just the beginning. 1773 01:20:19,600 --> 01:20:21,320 Speaker 1: You put a lot on these guys plays, just like 1774 01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:24,920 Speaker 1: learning pass routes. It's just like learning pass pro concepts. 1775 01:20:24,960 --> 01:20:29,200 Speaker 1: It's like learning you know different things offensively defensively, You've 1776 01:20:29,240 --> 01:20:31,280 Speaker 1: got paths you want to take, stunts you want to run. 1777 01:20:31,600 --> 01:20:33,479 Speaker 1: And he's a little bit overwhelmed. Now I think you 1778 01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:36,760 Speaker 1: know a little bit. And I think that's okay. I 1779 01:20:36,760 --> 01:20:38,240 Speaker 1: think that's kind of the way they want it, you 1780 01:20:38,320 --> 01:20:41,840 Speaker 1: know what I mean. So I think when they put 1781 01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:43,880 Speaker 1: pads on and they and they get a little deeper 1782 01:20:43,920 --> 01:20:46,120 Speaker 1: into this, I think Ed Oliver is gonna show the 1783 01:20:46,200 --> 01:20:47,680 Speaker 1: kind of player he is. And I don't think there's 1784 01:20:47,680 --> 01:20:51,040 Speaker 1: any question. Uh, he's gonna he's gonna make some plays, 1785 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:53,800 Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna be really good once they 1786 01:20:53,840 --> 01:20:57,240 Speaker 1: put the path. Quickness and athleticism almost demanded he be 1787 01:20:57,360 --> 01:21:00,240 Speaker 1: on the field. Now he's with it, almost demands that 1788 01:21:00,320 --> 01:21:03,599 Speaker 1: you've gotta have you gotta go full go for him 1789 01:21:03,600 --> 01:21:05,760 Speaker 1: to take advantage of because if your quickness is your 1790 01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:10,040 Speaker 1: asset and you're going half speed, well you know right 1791 01:21:10,080 --> 01:21:13,920 Speaker 1: now you're half quick, right, So for him to be 1792 01:21:14,680 --> 01:21:16,599 Speaker 1: relevant and be really good at it, You're gonna see 1793 01:21:16,680 --> 01:21:18,320 Speaker 1: him in games, I think, And you're gonna see him 1794 01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:20,120 Speaker 1: a lot once the pads go on. In live drills. 1795 01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:22,599 Speaker 1: We had the spotlight and and Oliver will will watch 1796 01:21:22,720 --> 01:21:24,479 Speaker 1: him as the camp goes along. Be sure about that. 1797 01:21:24,840 --> 01:21:27,080 Speaker 1: But I think we also are compelled, you and I 1798 01:21:27,240 --> 01:21:29,840 Speaker 1: to choose our camp standout of the day. And look, 1799 01:21:29,880 --> 01:21:31,320 Speaker 1: there were a lot of good moments today, there will 1800 01:21:31,320 --> 01:21:33,920 Speaker 1: be every day, but I have for my standout today. 1801 01:21:34,160 --> 01:21:37,040 Speaker 1: You may agree or disagree. Steve, I went with Deon Dawkins, 1802 01:21:37,200 --> 01:21:40,639 Speaker 1: who now is second straight camp practice as the starting 1803 01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:42,680 Speaker 1: left tackle, and he just looks saddled to me. He 1804 01:21:42,760 --> 01:21:46,240 Speaker 1: looks leaner, he looks, he looks more ready to play. 1805 01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:50,400 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott was asked about him today, and McDermott said 1806 01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:53,040 Speaker 1: that Dean Dawkins is more focused. He says, he looks 1807 01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:55,599 Speaker 1: very focused from where he was a year ago. Who knows, 1808 01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:57,759 Speaker 1: you know what happens in your second year. But Dawkins 1809 01:21:57,840 --> 01:21:59,960 Speaker 1: looked good. There was one play and I'm finding it here. 1810 01:22:00,960 --> 01:22:03,000 Speaker 1: It was a toss sweep. Here it is they got 1811 01:22:03,080 --> 01:22:06,040 Speaker 1: into an extensive team work period about midway through practice, 1812 01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:09,519 Speaker 1: a toss sweep that went to a Frank Gore Dawkins 1813 01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:12,160 Speaker 1: and he's done this now two straight days, gets out 1814 01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:14,400 Speaker 1: in front of it as quick as anybody. Talk about quickness, 1815 01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 1: he's got as big as he is, and he looks 1816 01:22:16,439 --> 01:22:18,920 Speaker 1: lean and more fit than he was a year ago. 1817 01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:21,560 Speaker 1: But he's got quickness. He threw a great block. He 1818 01:22:21,680 --> 01:22:24,280 Speaker 1: threw a great block as he went down field. He's 1819 01:22:24,360 --> 01:22:27,639 Speaker 1: leaner than he was, he's faster than he was. He's athletic, 1820 01:22:27,720 --> 01:22:29,240 Speaker 1: I think a little bit more athletic than he was. 1821 01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:31,679 Speaker 1: And as his head coach says, he seems more focused. 1822 01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:34,800 Speaker 1: I'm naming Dion Dawkins as my camp stand out from 1823 01:22:34,960 --> 01:22:37,120 Speaker 1: day two today. Very good and I kind of noticed 1824 01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:38,600 Speaker 1: some of the same things you did as well. I 1825 01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:40,439 Speaker 1: went on the other side of the football. And I 1826 01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:44,320 Speaker 1: watched Kevin Johnson, that the free agent out of the 1827 01:22:44,400 --> 01:22:47,040 Speaker 1: Houston Texans cornerback. He and the group that he was 1828 01:22:47,120 --> 01:22:49,519 Speaker 1: in there with, he was a tough cat to beat. 1829 01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:52,639 Speaker 1: I saw him do some things in team drills close 1830 01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 1: had a couple of passes defense. But the one thing 1831 01:22:55,400 --> 01:22:59,160 Speaker 1: I saw as well in one on ones when the 1832 01:22:59,320 --> 01:23:01,439 Speaker 1: receivers and the dbs were down on one end of 1833 01:23:01,439 --> 01:23:02,840 Speaker 1: the field and they were going one on once. All 1834 01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:04,839 Speaker 1: they were doing was releasing. They weren't throwing the football 1835 01:23:04,880 --> 01:23:06,680 Speaker 1: to the receivers or anything. They were just releasing for 1836 01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:09,519 Speaker 1: ten yards. So the receiver would take a release and 1837 01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:11,720 Speaker 1: take off down the field as if he was going 1838 01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:14,519 Speaker 1: to run route, and the dbs it was all about 1839 01:23:14,560 --> 01:23:17,679 Speaker 1: the release on bump press. And he did a couple 1840 01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:22,439 Speaker 1: of things that showed me he's got a repertoire of 1841 01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:26,680 Speaker 1: the ability to do that one time. You know, they 1842 01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:28,400 Speaker 1: do a lot of things. One they get get on 1843 01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:31,000 Speaker 1: your real quick. He'll shoot his hand across the line 1844 01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:33,719 Speaker 1: of scrimmage at the snap and knock you off your path, 1845 01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:36,120 Speaker 1: or get your little off balance to begin with, so 1846 01:23:36,280 --> 01:23:38,400 Speaker 1: that you have to gather yourself a little bit before 1847 01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:41,559 Speaker 1: taking off down the field or at least starting your release. 1848 01:23:41,840 --> 01:23:43,559 Speaker 1: He did that a couple of times with a different 1849 01:23:43,640 --> 01:23:45,400 Speaker 1: couple of different techniques, and then I saw him do 1850 01:23:45,479 --> 01:23:50,080 Speaker 1: another thing where receiver comes off and he takes a 1851 01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:54,519 Speaker 1: little a couple of hops back. The receiver kind of 1852 01:23:54,600 --> 01:23:57,040 Speaker 1: tries to initiate contract. He hops kind of a way 1853 01:23:57,120 --> 01:23:59,600 Speaker 1: straight back on the field, keeping the balance, and the 1854 01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:04,560 Speaker 1: receiver can't decide which which side he's got an advantage to, 1855 01:24:05,280 --> 01:24:08,720 Speaker 1: and because there's a gap, the receiver thinks if he 1856 01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:11,760 Speaker 1: takes his side, there's just too much space there to 1857 01:24:11,800 --> 01:24:13,840 Speaker 1: get there before Kevin Johnson can react and beat him. 1858 01:24:14,520 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 1: So he reacts by by kind of a soft bail. 1859 01:24:17,920 --> 01:24:20,000 Speaker 1: So there was another technique that he used that he 1860 01:24:20,080 --> 01:24:23,280 Speaker 1: had complete control of where he absolutely had the receiver 1861 01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:28,160 Speaker 1: off his game, off his route. He had a full repertoire, 1862 01:24:28,240 --> 01:24:30,320 Speaker 1: full menu of that stuff and the one on ones 1863 01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:31,840 Speaker 1: that I saw and I was, I was like, you know, 1864 01:24:33,439 --> 01:24:36,760 Speaker 1: that's a veteran it's total veteran move, trying different things 1865 01:24:36,840 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 1: on different guys and winning a lot more than he 1866 01:24:40,120 --> 01:24:42,479 Speaker 1: was not winning. And I thought it was pretty good move. 1867 01:24:42,640 --> 01:24:45,559 Speaker 1: He was good. I took note of Kevin Johnson today. 1868 01:24:45,640 --> 01:24:47,840 Speaker 1: He got reps with the first team today and then 1869 01:24:47,960 --> 01:24:50,840 Speaker 1: it looked like they were kind of alternating reps. He 1870 01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:54,080 Speaker 1: and Levi Wallace right by the cornerbacks about opposite Tredevious White. 1871 01:24:54,280 --> 01:24:56,160 Speaker 1: We may see more of that moving along. And I 1872 01:24:56,200 --> 01:25:00,439 Speaker 1: agree with you about the contact right, the hand placement. 1873 01:25:00,600 --> 01:25:02,400 Speaker 1: He's six foot one hundred and eighty five pounds, so 1874 01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:04,680 Speaker 1: he's not a small corner and he should use that 1875 01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:07,120 Speaker 1: and he appeared to do that to his advantage today, right. 1876 01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:09,560 Speaker 1: And it was interesting. You know, one on ones, you 1877 01:25:09,840 --> 01:25:11,599 Speaker 1: get a lot of stuff. It's a little bit artificial 1878 01:25:11,680 --> 01:25:15,320 Speaker 1: because nobody's trying. You know, nobody's there's no time limit. 1879 01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:17,240 Speaker 1: You know, he didn't have a quarterback waiting on you 1880 01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:18,400 Speaker 1: to come out of the route. You know, they're just 1881 01:25:18,479 --> 01:25:20,519 Speaker 1: trying to get some things done and learn something. You know, 1882 01:25:20,600 --> 01:25:23,559 Speaker 1: you're trying things. And he tried a bunch of different 1883 01:25:23,600 --> 01:25:28,479 Speaker 1: stuff that young cornerbacks, young cornerbacks A have never done, 1884 01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:35,280 Speaker 1: let alone practiced. And this guy had the full menu 1885 01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:38,519 Speaker 1: at his fingertips. And I was pretty telling as to 1886 01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:41,760 Speaker 1: why a guy like him is you know, assault after 1887 01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:43,960 Speaker 1: free agent. Yeah, A third thing we like to do 1888 01:25:44,040 --> 01:25:45,680 Speaker 1: each day here at training camp. Will do it here 1889 01:25:45,720 --> 01:25:48,240 Speaker 1: for a practice day number two? Who won the day? 1890 01:25:48,760 --> 01:25:51,120 Speaker 1: It's competitive people trying to win jobs. Who won the 1891 01:25:51,200 --> 01:25:54,040 Speaker 1: day today? And this is going to be an obvious one, 1892 01:25:54,040 --> 01:25:56,360 Speaker 1: I guess, But I got Josh Allens. I got quarterback 1893 01:25:56,439 --> 01:25:59,479 Speaker 1: Josh Allen's even it wasn't a great practice start to 1894 01:25:59,520 --> 01:26:02,200 Speaker 1: finish for Josh Hallon today, but it got better as 1895 01:26:02,240 --> 01:26:04,519 Speaker 1: he went along and by the time midway through practice 1896 01:26:04,560 --> 01:26:07,360 Speaker 1: and when they were in those long extensive team sessions, 1897 01:26:07,680 --> 01:26:09,120 Speaker 1: he might have been the best play around the field, 1898 01:26:09,120 --> 01:26:11,839 Speaker 1: certainly the best player around offense. I think making good decisions, 1899 01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:14,880 Speaker 1: zipping the ball right over the middle, not deep passes. 1900 01:26:14,920 --> 01:26:17,599 Speaker 1: There were no spectacular deep passes today that I saw, 1901 01:26:17,840 --> 01:26:20,840 Speaker 1: but zipping the ball right over the middle. And they 1902 01:26:20,960 --> 01:26:23,400 Speaker 1: talked about the decision just to to find Frank Gore 1903 01:26:23,439 --> 01:26:26,240 Speaker 1: and Shady McCoy coming out of the backfield. His decision 1904 01:26:26,320 --> 01:26:29,280 Speaker 1: making seems like that's on an accelerated pace. I'm not 1905 01:26:29,280 --> 01:26:31,720 Speaker 1: gonna pick him every day, don't worry about that. But 1906 01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:34,160 Speaker 1: I picked him today. I think on one today, good 1907 01:26:34,240 --> 01:26:36,160 Speaker 1: choice say for me, can I is it too much 1908 01:26:36,200 --> 01:26:38,800 Speaker 1: of a homer? I should pick our production crew for here? 1909 01:26:38,800 --> 01:26:41,200 Speaker 1: Because we were about not to be on the air 1910 01:26:42,160 --> 01:26:47,440 Speaker 1: and our guys George Bloss, Kevin Cargis and our erstwhile 1911 01:26:47,640 --> 01:26:52,080 Speaker 1: producer Jay Harris. It was Greg and Archer Park. They oh, 1912 01:26:52,160 --> 01:26:56,400 Speaker 1: my guys, all the guys back there. We you and 1913 01:26:56,479 --> 01:26:58,280 Speaker 1: I are sitting over here like, jeez, I hope this works. 1914 01:26:58,320 --> 01:27:01,800 Speaker 1: Hope we're going on there. That gonna help certainly. They Yeah, 1915 01:27:01,920 --> 01:27:06,479 Speaker 1: we had all hands on day. Yeah, but now or 1916 01:27:06,520 --> 01:27:09,040 Speaker 1: two shows into this, now we should be gold right 1917 01:27:09,120 --> 01:27:12,439 Speaker 1: from here on out. Everything should be working like clo. Yeah, 1918 01:27:12,479 --> 01:27:14,920 Speaker 1: but yeah, Josh Allen did have a good day. I 1919 01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:17,280 Speaker 1: thought the defense showed a lot of things. They did 1920 01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:19,240 Speaker 1: a couple of drills. Here was blitz pick up and 1921 01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:22,439 Speaker 1: a lot of exotic looks defensively right at the snap 1922 01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:24,640 Speaker 1: when they were running through some of it. Well, it 1923 01:27:24,720 --> 01:27:26,759 Speaker 1: all looks like a little bit half speed because nobody's 1924 01:27:26,800 --> 01:27:30,679 Speaker 1: got pads on um. Pretty complicated and exotic defensive looks 1925 01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:33,600 Speaker 1: that they got thrown at did the offense, And I 1926 01:27:33,680 --> 01:27:35,760 Speaker 1: thought the defense looked really well schooled and looked like 1927 01:27:35,800 --> 01:27:38,000 Speaker 1: they were handling it really well. So I would actually, 1928 01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:42,120 Speaker 1: aside from the fact that Josh got hot right in 1929 01:27:42,160 --> 01:27:45,680 Speaker 1: the middle of it later in practice. I thought the defense, Uh, 1930 01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:48,120 Speaker 1: they looked like they got it together over there. O right, 1931 01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:49,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna break here. We're gonna have a late lunch. 1932 01:27:49,960 --> 01:27:52,920 Speaker 1: What's for lunch? All right? Return, we don't have time 1933 01:27:52,960 --> 01:27:55,360 Speaker 1: for that. We'll do late lunch, all right. Doctor is here, 1934 01:27:55,520 --> 01:27:58,880 Speaker 1: doctor is not here. Trying to get some indication. That's 1935 01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:01,559 Speaker 1: an old reference. Coming back with more from Training Camp, 1936 01:28:01,640 --> 01:28:19,360 Speaker 1: One goes live on Buffalo Bills Radio one Bills five company. 1937 01:28:19,479 --> 01:28:22,879 Speaker 1: From Bills Training Camp, John Murphy's Deep Tanker we welcomed 1938 01:28:22,880 --> 01:28:25,080 Speaker 1: around the air to us a couple of days ago. 1939 01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:28,479 Speaker 1: Maddi glab our new multi media reporter. She's out of 1940 01:28:28,479 --> 01:28:30,719 Speaker 1: her at camp, working hard, harder than us quite frankly 1941 01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:33,800 Speaker 1: se Yeah, I'd have to say a firm Maddie guy 1942 01:28:33,880 --> 01:28:35,680 Speaker 1: and I mentioned a moment ago how impressed I was 1943 01:28:35,720 --> 01:28:39,559 Speaker 1: with Deon Dawkins. I thought Deon Dawkins was my standout performer. Today, 1944 01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:43,920 Speaker 1: Maddie Glab sat down with Dion and his teammate Mitch Morris, 1945 01:28:43,960 --> 01:28:45,760 Speaker 1: who he had on the show yesterday. Maddie Glab with 1946 01:28:45,800 --> 01:28:49,519 Speaker 1: a couple of Bills offensive line. Thanks guys, I'm here 1947 01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:52,360 Speaker 1: at Deon Dawkins and Mitch Moore's Day two of camp 1948 01:28:52,560 --> 01:28:55,599 Speaker 1: is finished. So DoD you'all bring the juice today, would 1949 01:28:55,640 --> 01:28:58,840 Speaker 1: you say? I would say yes, we definitely brought the 1950 01:28:59,200 --> 01:29:01,600 Speaker 1: juice over the defense and tomorrow is going to be 1951 01:29:02,120 --> 01:29:05,280 Speaker 1: even more competitive. How's it going out there, first training 1952 01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:07,840 Speaker 1: camp with the Bills? When did you think of day two? Yeah? 1953 01:29:07,880 --> 01:29:11,360 Speaker 1: I think it's a real competitive day, real competitive group 1954 01:29:11,400 --> 01:29:13,160 Speaker 1: of guys here, and that's how you get better is 1955 01:29:13,200 --> 01:29:16,120 Speaker 1: by working together smart but competing at the same time. 1956 01:29:16,760 --> 01:29:18,479 Speaker 1: All right, Dian, there's a bunch of new guys on 1957 01:29:18,560 --> 01:29:21,040 Speaker 1: this O line. So what are you learning from vets 1958 01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:23,880 Speaker 1: like Mitch Morse who thinks it's weird that he's a vet, 1959 01:29:23,960 --> 01:29:29,519 Speaker 1: by the way, Well, it's it's just really really crazy. 1960 01:29:29,600 --> 01:29:33,360 Speaker 1: Like Mitch is just extremely patient. He's extremely patient. He 1961 01:29:33,520 --> 01:29:37,320 Speaker 1: lets you talk and he just dissects everything and it's 1962 01:29:37,640 --> 01:29:40,800 Speaker 1: it's it's actually very very I'm very very grateful to 1963 01:29:41,040 --> 01:29:44,360 Speaker 1: see that because but he does a great job with 1964 01:29:45,040 --> 01:29:50,519 Speaker 1: leading because he knows everybody's strengths and weaknesses. He understands that, Okay, 1965 01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:53,000 Speaker 1: I can't yell at this guy. For him to understand 1966 01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:56,000 Speaker 1: how to do it, he just needs to be just 1967 01:29:56,160 --> 01:29:59,400 Speaker 1: told bro, just look at this, go here, just take 1968 01:29:59,640 --> 01:30:03,400 Speaker 1: an in this step. So it's just a pecking owner 1969 01:30:03,600 --> 01:30:08,240 Speaker 1: of learning and tactics that he does to teach us match. 1970 01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:09,920 Speaker 1: You are on one Bill's Live yesterday. I know you 1971 01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:12,439 Speaker 1: talked about a sense of urgency, So what can you 1972 01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:15,720 Speaker 1: do outside of practice that helps with that when you're 1973 01:30:15,760 --> 01:30:17,759 Speaker 1: trying to find the best five right now? In practice? 1974 01:30:18,240 --> 01:30:20,439 Speaker 1: I think that's going to hash itself out. The thing 1975 01:30:20,520 --> 01:30:22,840 Speaker 1: we can do is become closer as just in a 1976 01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:25,040 Speaker 1: personal level, as a group of guys, and that's by 1977 01:30:25,080 --> 01:30:27,439 Speaker 1: hanging out, really getting to know each other. Because if 1978 01:30:27,479 --> 01:30:30,599 Speaker 1: you go you know, we technically go to war every week, 1979 01:30:30,680 --> 01:30:31,720 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And you don't want to 1980 01:30:31,720 --> 01:30:33,680 Speaker 1: go to battle with guys that you don't really care for, 1981 01:30:33,840 --> 01:30:35,640 Speaker 1: You really don't know, and so it's easier to go 1982 01:30:36,160 --> 01:30:38,639 Speaker 1: collectively as a group, care for each other and then 1983 01:30:39,320 --> 01:30:41,600 Speaker 1: achieve big things on the field. But you got to 1984 01:30:41,640 --> 01:30:44,200 Speaker 1: have that personal level of trust because trust is so 1985 01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:46,000 Speaker 1: important in this league. And so if you don't have trust, 1986 01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:47,880 Speaker 1: if Dan doesn't have trust to me to make the 1987 01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:50,360 Speaker 1: right cause of him in the right position, then I mean, 1988 01:30:50,400 --> 01:30:54,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you're toasted. Dan. What is different about camp 1989 01:30:54,479 --> 01:30:56,439 Speaker 1: this year. About the O line this year. You've been 1990 01:30:56,520 --> 01:31:01,040 Speaker 1: here season's past, so what's the different field this year? Um? 1991 01:31:02,080 --> 01:31:06,360 Speaker 1: And just like how I said previously, it's just a 1992 01:31:06,439 --> 01:31:09,760 Speaker 1: lot of passion. You know, Guys really want to win, 1993 01:31:09,920 --> 01:31:13,400 Speaker 1: Guys really want to do things right. And this once again, 1994 01:31:13,520 --> 01:31:17,640 Speaker 1: it's definitely a blessing to finally see it. Guys are 1995 01:31:17,680 --> 01:31:21,080 Speaker 1: just going after it. Guys have their mindset that losing 1996 01:31:21,280 --> 01:31:23,640 Speaker 1: is not an option, and uh, we're just gonna just 1997 01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:26,040 Speaker 1: hit the ground rolling and just keep stacking days. All right, 1998 01:31:26,040 --> 01:31:28,560 Speaker 1: we're gonna have a little fun here, some camp superlatives. 1999 01:31:29,400 --> 01:31:32,040 Speaker 1: All right, let's go first. Who gets the old Guy 2000 01:31:32,120 --> 01:31:38,240 Speaker 1: Award to Old Guy Award? Lorenzo Alexander. I'll changed with 2001 01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:42,920 Speaker 1: the learns of Alexander, all right, there's a reason why 2002 01:31:42,960 --> 01:31:44,760 Speaker 1: he's been playing so dang long. Dude, he brings the 2003 01:31:44,880 --> 01:31:47,240 Speaker 1: juice every day. But seeing that dude, how he takes 2004 01:31:47,280 --> 01:31:49,000 Speaker 1: care of his body every minute of the day is 2005 01:31:49,040 --> 01:31:52,599 Speaker 1: meticulously put in place for him to succeed on the field. 2006 01:31:52,600 --> 01:31:54,320 Speaker 1: So it's actually something that we can all learn from. 2007 01:31:54,479 --> 01:31:58,640 Speaker 1: All right, class clown, Uh, well, class clown. Well, we 2008 01:31:58,720 --> 01:32:01,400 Speaker 1: have a couple, I would say, Trey White is definitely funny. 2009 01:32:01,800 --> 01:32:06,160 Speaker 1: Shack is definitely funny, and uh, I don't know that's 2010 01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:09,760 Speaker 1: so Shack and Trey, would you say, Mitch? I think 2011 01:32:09,800 --> 01:32:11,519 Speaker 1: he pretty much nailed on the head. Those two dudes 2012 01:32:11,560 --> 01:32:14,680 Speaker 1: are funny dudes. Okay, Um, since you guys are in 2013 01:32:14,720 --> 01:32:18,479 Speaker 1: the Old Line, Diana and Mitch, what about biggest eater? 2014 01:32:19,320 --> 01:32:25,080 Speaker 1: Biggest eater? John Fliciano? John Fliciano definitely is the biggest 2015 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:27,559 Speaker 1: eater on the Old Line, would agree? And what does 2016 01:32:27,600 --> 01:32:29,720 Speaker 1: his plate look like? The most public eater? I think 2017 01:32:29,800 --> 01:32:33,320 Speaker 1: Quentin Spain might have the biggest eater, but John John 2018 01:32:33,400 --> 01:32:35,479 Speaker 1: for sure boasts about it and he makes the whole 2019 01:32:35,520 --> 01:32:38,120 Speaker 1: scene about it. But I mean, whatever, whatever he wants to, 2020 01:32:38,200 --> 01:32:40,960 Speaker 1: it's gonna be on that damn play. Well.

We appreciate your 2097 01:36:42,560 --> 01:36:45,559 Speaker 1: time on our first city saves on your commute. I guess, yeah, 2098 01:36:45,600 --> 01:36:47,000 Speaker 1: well I get these two weeks and then you guys 2099 01:36:47,080 --> 01:36:49,120 Speaker 1: get the other four and a half months. It's fair. 2100 01:36:49,240 --> 01:36:50,640 Speaker 1: What do you notice so far? You know, by the 2101 01:36:50,680 --> 01:36:52,479 Speaker 1: way this interrupt I figured out on one of the 2102 01:36:52,520 --> 01:36:54,840 Speaker 1: many long trips that I taken to Buffalo that in 2103 01:36:54,960 --> 01:36:57,280 Speaker 1: twenty years have covering this team, I have actually spent 2104 01:36:57,360 --> 01:36:59,240 Speaker 1: a month and a half of my life on the 2105 01:36:59,320 --> 01:37:03,439 Speaker 1: three way. Just total hours driving that trip forty some 2106 01:37:03,600 --> 01:37:05,600 Speaker 1: days or something. There must be some award for you 2107 01:37:05,760 --> 01:37:07,920 Speaker 1: at the New York State through authority, right, I should 2108 01:37:07,920 --> 01:37:10,280 Speaker 1: at least three coals or something something. You know, I 2109 01:37:10,320 --> 01:37:12,000 Speaker 1: would have the gold card if they had that. Right 2110 01:37:12,400 --> 01:37:14,640 Speaker 1: with that, well, good, I'm glad you do that. And 2111 01:37:15,320 --> 01:37:17,400 Speaker 1: the bills come back. And for the twentieth season, it 2112 01:37:17,520 --> 01:37:20,200 Speaker 1: is an abbreviated camp, mostly because of the trip to 2113 01:37:20,280 --> 01:37:22,800 Speaker 1: Spartanburg in a couple of weeks. But I'm telling you, 2114 01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:24,719 Speaker 1: I've said to see both days here today. The crowds 2115 01:37:24,760 --> 01:37:26,920 Speaker 1: have been great, big crowds both sides of the field here. 2116 01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:28,760 Speaker 1: The way, I think the enthusiasm for this team is 2117 01:37:28,760 --> 01:37:30,479 Speaker 1: as high as I can ever remember in a long time. 2118 01:37:30,520 --> 01:37:33,439 Speaker 1: I mean, really, for this camp. People are always excited, 2119 01:37:33,560 --> 01:37:35,840 Speaker 1: especially in Rochester, the chance to come out and see 2120 01:37:35,920 --> 01:37:37,679 Speaker 1: a bunch of different guys and see him up close 2121 01:37:37,760 --> 01:37:38,960 Speaker 1: in a way where you don't have to pay a 2122 01:37:39,000 --> 01:37:40,360 Speaker 1: lot of money for it. You don't have to, you know, 2123 01:37:40,600 --> 01:37:43,240 Speaker 1: pay for parking and tickets and anything else. And the 2124 01:37:43,360 --> 01:37:46,080 Speaker 1: only year where I thought there was an enthusiasm for 2125 01:37:46,280 --> 01:37:48,479 Speaker 1: this camp was the second rex Yere. You know, it 2126 01:37:48,560 --> 01:37:51,360 Speaker 1: seemed like people were excited. The first year it was 2127 01:37:51,439 --> 01:37:53,720 Speaker 1: Rex and all the stuff that he brings, and then 2128 01:37:53,840 --> 01:37:56,360 Speaker 1: when it didn't work out year one, there just wasn't 2129 01:37:56,400 --> 01:37:59,120 Speaker 1: that juice. Every other year there's been some and especially 2130 01:37:59,200 --> 01:38:01,519 Speaker 1: for this year with you know, the belief people have 2131 01:38:01,640 --> 01:38:04,400 Speaker 1: in Sean McDermott and Brandon being, the excitement people have 2132 01:38:04,560 --> 01:38:06,680 Speaker 1: for Josh Allen. I think the crowds have been as 2133 01:38:06,760 --> 01:38:08,800 Speaker 1: good as they were, you know, two thousand and two 2134 01:38:08,800 --> 01:38:10,120 Speaker 1: thousand and one here at Fisher. So what if he 2135 01:38:10,240 --> 01:38:13,160 Speaker 1: noticed on the field. Well, the thing that I'm looking 2136 01:38:13,200 --> 01:38:15,280 Speaker 1: at right now is what does Josh look like as 2137 01:38:15,320 --> 01:38:17,479 Speaker 1: a quarterback. I want to see a quarterback that looks 2138 01:38:17,560 --> 01:38:19,800 Speaker 1: the part of a number one. Last year, he, like 2139 01:38:19,920 --> 01:38:21,920 Speaker 1: he said, didn't know what reps he'd get, didn't know 2140 01:38:21,920 --> 01:38:24,120 Speaker 1: what team he'd work with in and out of the lineup. 2141 01:38:24,280 --> 01:38:26,360 Speaker 1: This year, he's getting all the first teams, and I 2142 01:38:26,439 --> 01:38:28,200 Speaker 1: want to see a guy that acts the part. So far, 2143 01:38:28,840 --> 01:38:30,960 Speaker 1: not quite there yet. We're in practice too. What's missing? 2144 01:38:32,080 --> 01:38:33,760 Speaker 1: The accuracy hasn't been there, And I mean, I know 2145 01:38:33,800 --> 01:38:35,040 Speaker 1: it's a question for him. I know it's going to 2146 01:38:35,080 --> 01:38:37,800 Speaker 1: be a bugaboo for him, but especially the connection with 2147 01:38:38,320 --> 01:38:40,800 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley has been a concern. There were three or 2148 01:38:40,840 --> 01:38:43,560 Speaker 1: four places today where we're talking about throws in the 2149 01:38:43,640 --> 01:38:47,400 Speaker 1: five to seven yard range or shorter where Josh's wasn't close, 2150 01:38:47,479 --> 01:38:49,560 Speaker 1: and it seemed like those two guys were trying to 2151 01:38:49,560 --> 01:38:51,000 Speaker 1: get on the same page. I know that they've been 2152 01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:54,960 Speaker 1: encouraged about the way they work together, the way they've 2153 01:38:55,000 --> 01:38:58,479 Speaker 1: talked together throughout the offseason, but so far earlier this year, 2154 01:38:58,680 --> 01:39:00,400 Speaker 1: you know, I think that's a connection we all want 2155 01:39:00,439 --> 01:39:02,760 Speaker 1: to see make happen. Colby's supposed to be a guy 2156 01:39:02,800 --> 01:39:05,240 Speaker 1: that can open up a different dimension of the passing game, 2157 01:39:05,520 --> 01:39:08,760 Speaker 1: and through two practices, yeah, tiny sample size, it hasn't 2158 01:39:08,760 --> 01:39:10,759 Speaker 1: been there yet. See if you don't have to agree 2159 01:39:10,760 --> 01:39:13,120 Speaker 1: with this. Everybody's got a different viewpoint. But I mentioned 2160 01:39:13,200 --> 01:39:15,240 Speaker 1: Steve that I think Josh got better as today he 2161 01:39:15,320 --> 01:39:17,400 Speaker 1: went along right. I agree with that. That just accuracy 2162 01:39:17,640 --> 01:39:19,960 Speaker 1: he threw, and there was extensive teamwork in the middle. 2163 01:39:20,000 --> 01:39:22,880 Speaker 1: Today's practice, he threw some darts over the middle to 2164 01:39:23,080 --> 01:39:26,080 Speaker 1: open wide receivers and tiny little windows over the middle. 2165 01:39:26,120 --> 01:39:27,880 Speaker 1: He looked really good towards the end of practice, the 2166 01:39:28,000 --> 01:39:29,760 Speaker 1: last drill and a half, you know, I think he 2167 01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:32,719 Speaker 1: he had two completions to close on the goal. Line today, 2168 01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:34,680 Speaker 1: but I think at one point he was five of 2169 01:39:34,800 --> 01:39:37,120 Speaker 1: six or six or seven. And we're not talking dump 2170 01:39:37,160 --> 01:39:39,600 Speaker 1: off passes. These are ten to fifteen yards over the 2171 01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:41,479 Speaker 1: middle of the field, and I think it helped make 2172 01:39:41,520 --> 01:39:44,160 Speaker 1: up for what was I thought a pretty not so 2173 01:39:44,360 --> 01:39:46,519 Speaker 1: good early portion of practice for Josh. I was gonna say, 2174 01:39:46,520 --> 01:39:48,800 Speaker 1: you remember a year ago, I think from what I've seen, 2175 01:39:48,880 --> 01:39:52,200 Speaker 1: and it was granted, it was a long time ago, 2176 01:39:52,200 --> 01:39:54,160 Speaker 1: and it's hard to remember last year's training camp when 2177 01:39:54,200 --> 01:40:01,000 Speaker 1: there was aj McCarron and Peterman and Josh Allen. I 2178 01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:03,840 Speaker 1: think Josh Allen, if it's just if it's this year's 2179 01:40:03,920 --> 01:40:07,560 Speaker 1: version of Josh Allen, he certainly wins last year's quarterback competition, 2180 01:40:08,160 --> 01:40:10,000 Speaker 1: but the fact that he's got an entire year under 2181 01:40:10,040 --> 01:40:13,960 Speaker 1: his belt in this offense with brand new people around him, 2182 01:40:14,080 --> 01:40:16,200 Speaker 1: and it's more about the guys around him than it 2183 01:40:16,320 --> 01:40:18,840 Speaker 1: is about Josh in some respects. Are they gonna, you know, 2184 01:40:18,880 --> 01:40:20,599 Speaker 1: are they gonna rise up? Are they gonna be kind 2185 01:40:20,600 --> 01:40:22,479 Speaker 1: of the difference maker for Josh? What do you think 2186 01:40:22,520 --> 01:40:25,160 Speaker 1: that balance is going to fall between Josh getting better 2187 01:40:25,240 --> 01:40:28,080 Speaker 1: and the guys around him getting better? Because everybody will 2188 01:40:28,080 --> 01:40:29,720 Speaker 1: make an argument for either one is to being the 2189 01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:31,679 Speaker 1: big difference. I think the guys around him, I don't 2190 01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:34,080 Speaker 1: know how much they're going to get better. I think 2191 01:40:34,439 --> 01:40:36,240 Speaker 1: we know what we get with Cole Beasley, we know 2192 01:40:36,280 --> 01:40:37,960 Speaker 1: what we get with John Brown. We have a good 2193 01:40:38,040 --> 01:40:40,000 Speaker 1: idea what we get with a lot of the lineman 2194 01:40:40,040 --> 01:40:43,240 Speaker 1: they brought in Quentin Spain and Feliciano and even in 2195 01:40:43,320 --> 01:40:47,160 Speaker 1: Secy to a degree, I think how Josh meshes with them, 2196 01:40:47,240 --> 01:40:49,760 Speaker 1: how they mesh with each other, especially upfront, will be 2197 01:40:49,840 --> 01:40:53,800 Speaker 1: the big key offensively. But Josh getting better is still 2198 01:40:53,880 --> 01:40:55,519 Speaker 1: something that I think will happen more so than every 2199 01:40:55,560 --> 01:40:58,120 Speaker 1: other piece in this offense because he's one of the 2200 01:40:58,200 --> 01:41:01,519 Speaker 1: younger guys for the most part, and we know where 2201 01:41:01,600 --> 01:41:04,519 Speaker 1: his potential is. I mean when he was drafted. If 2202 01:41:04,600 --> 01:41:07,360 Speaker 1: this guy goes as far as he can go, it's, 2203 01:41:07,479 --> 01:41:09,439 Speaker 1: you know, one of the best quarterbacks we've ever seen. 2204 01:41:09,640 --> 01:41:11,400 Speaker 1: He's not there yet, He's got a long way to go. 2205 01:41:11,560 --> 01:41:14,479 Speaker 1: So because I think we still have that space from Josh, 2206 01:41:14,520 --> 01:41:16,559 Speaker 1: you get from here to where he could be way 2207 01:41:16,640 --> 01:41:18,760 Speaker 1: up here. I think that growth is where we can 2208 01:41:18,800 --> 01:41:21,200 Speaker 1: see the most growth of any player on offense. Like 2209 01:41:21,240 --> 01:41:23,400 Speaker 1: I said, the rest of these guys that they brought 2210 01:41:23,439 --> 01:41:26,559 Speaker 1: in are mostly veterans. I think these guys what you've 2211 01:41:26,560 --> 01:41:28,559 Speaker 1: seen around the rest of the league is what you're 2212 01:41:28,560 --> 01:41:32,120 Speaker 1: gonna get. How does that accentuate? How does that support 2213 01:41:32,280 --> 01:41:34,640 Speaker 1: Josh and his growth? To me is the big difference, well, 2214 01:41:34,760 --> 01:41:37,680 Speaker 1: his difference. The question I was asking is how do 2215 01:41:37,800 --> 01:41:39,840 Speaker 1: these guys, these new guys, these veterans that they've gotten 2216 01:41:39,920 --> 01:41:42,040 Speaker 1: in around the league, comparative a group he had last year, 2217 01:41:42,080 --> 01:41:47,200 Speaker 1: the unquestionably better, unquestionably difference that on Josh. We'll see, 2218 01:41:47,439 --> 01:41:49,360 Speaker 1: um it's got to have you would hope would have 2219 01:41:49,400 --> 01:41:52,040 Speaker 1: a pretty significant difference. What I've been saying about this 2220 01:41:52,120 --> 01:41:56,080 Speaker 1: team last year, the offensive pieces were at times historically bad, 2221 01:41:56,240 --> 01:41:57,920 Speaker 1: I mean, as bad as we've seen in the league. 2222 01:41:58,200 --> 01:41:59,519 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of room that you can go 2223 01:41:59,640 --> 01:42:02,920 Speaker 1: on with the offensive pieces from where they were last 2224 01:42:03,000 --> 01:42:05,719 Speaker 1: year before you get too good. And maybe we're somewhere 2225 01:42:05,760 --> 01:42:09,080 Speaker 1: in the middle of that. If Josh can take a 2226 01:42:09,160 --> 01:42:11,519 Speaker 1: step on his own to make some plays on his own, 2227 01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:13,680 Speaker 1: understand the offense a little better on his own, he 2228 01:42:13,840 --> 01:42:17,280 Speaker 1: can best make best use of what he's got around him, 2229 01:42:17,400 --> 01:42:21,280 Speaker 1: even if it's not superlative talent that around our guest 2230 01:42:21,320 --> 01:42:24,760 Speaker 1: sports director w r OCTV here in Rochester. Then, well, 2231 01:42:24,840 --> 01:42:27,719 Speaker 1: let me get to you to our Twitter question today. 2232 01:42:28,040 --> 01:42:29,639 Speaker 1: And this is kind of a hope question and it's 2233 01:42:29,680 --> 01:42:32,720 Speaker 1: not even a training camp question yet, although it might be. 2234 01:42:32,960 --> 01:42:35,800 Speaker 1: What's the biggest difference you will notice or you hope 2235 01:42:35,840 --> 01:42:38,320 Speaker 1: to notice? And Josh Allen from last year to this year, 2236 01:42:38,360 --> 01:42:39,680 Speaker 1: what are you looking for from and what would you 2237 01:42:39,800 --> 01:42:42,680 Speaker 1: see him get better? At? Consistent competence. I want to 2238 01:42:42,680 --> 01:42:45,880 Speaker 1: see a guy that excused the offense, not just like today. 2239 01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:47,840 Speaker 1: You know, the first hour was not so good, the 2240 01:42:47,960 --> 01:42:50,040 Speaker 1: last hour was pretty good. Yeah, I want to see 2241 01:42:50,400 --> 01:42:53,439 Speaker 1: two full hours. I want to see multiple practices. I 2242 01:42:53,600 --> 01:42:56,639 Speaker 1: want to see Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday of practice. Oh that's 2243 01:42:56,680 --> 01:42:59,120 Speaker 1: the number one quarterback. There's no doubt he's grown. He 2244 01:42:59,200 --> 01:43:01,200 Speaker 1: looks better. That's I want to see a guy that 2245 01:43:01,400 --> 01:43:05,439 Speaker 1: at least looks the part of a competent number one 2246 01:43:05,520 --> 01:43:07,680 Speaker 1: quarterback in the league. To me, he's still a guy 2247 01:43:07,720 --> 01:43:09,760 Speaker 1: who's growing. And I don't think that's inappropriate. He's had 2248 01:43:09,760 --> 01:43:11,519 Speaker 1: twelve starts in the league, you know, so, I mean, 2249 01:43:11,600 --> 01:43:14,080 Speaker 1: and he was a project coming out, So I don't 2250 01:43:14,120 --> 01:43:16,320 Speaker 1: think he's not where he shouldn't be at this point. 2251 01:43:16,560 --> 01:43:18,080 Speaker 1: But what I'm hoping to get out of this camp, 2252 01:43:18,120 --> 01:43:20,480 Speaker 1: and really, you know, the camp only two weeks this preseason, 2253 01:43:20,920 --> 01:43:23,719 Speaker 1: is to end up on a guy who I believe 2254 01:43:23,760 --> 01:43:27,960 Speaker 1: in at least as a dependable number one quarterback in 2255 01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:32,080 Speaker 1: the NFL. Got it, Yeah, I agree. I mean you'd 2256 01:43:32,120 --> 01:43:33,840 Speaker 1: like to see that at the beginning. I think there's 2257 01:43:33,960 --> 01:43:35,880 Speaker 1: if he continues on the track that he was at 2258 01:43:35,920 --> 01:43:37,599 Speaker 1: the end of last year, we should start to see 2259 01:43:37,640 --> 01:43:39,720 Speaker 1: incremental growth week by week, even in the beginning of 2260 01:43:39,800 --> 01:43:45,000 Speaker 1: this year and throughout throughout the season. He should be 2261 01:43:45,120 --> 01:43:48,800 Speaker 1: playing at a completely different level in weeks seventeen or 2262 01:43:48,840 --> 01:43:51,080 Speaker 1: this season than he than he is in week six 2263 01:43:51,120 --> 01:43:53,120 Speaker 1: of this season. And I think even even in week 2264 01:43:53,200 --> 01:43:54,600 Speaker 1: five of this season, he'll be a lot better than 2265 01:43:54,640 --> 01:43:57,599 Speaker 1: he is right now, exactly so. And I think if 2266 01:43:57,640 --> 01:44:00,320 Speaker 1: he does that, then you know, obviously this guy's the limit, 2267 01:44:00,520 --> 01:44:02,120 Speaker 1: and I think it does it is going to help 2268 01:44:02,240 --> 01:44:05,400 Speaker 1: him in his progress, particularly and you're early going to 2269 01:44:05,520 --> 01:44:08,880 Speaker 1: have better pieces around him this offensive line. The ripple 2270 01:44:08,920 --> 01:44:10,600 Speaker 1: effect that it's going to have on the success of 2271 01:44:10,640 --> 01:44:13,600 Speaker 1: this offense, I think, you know, obviously everything remains to 2272 01:44:13,680 --> 01:44:17,360 Speaker 1: be seen. I think it's going to be significant the 2273 01:44:17,439 --> 01:44:19,519 Speaker 1: running game is going to be better. The defense is 2274 01:44:19,520 --> 01:44:24,960 Speaker 1: going to be less less able to predict what the 2275 01:44:25,040 --> 01:44:28,040 Speaker 1: officers gonna do. That they're gonna put more pressure on 2276 01:44:28,280 --> 01:44:30,680 Speaker 1: the opposing defense with their running game rather than the 2277 01:44:30,960 --> 01:44:33,479 Speaker 1: way they had to do it last year. So I 2278 01:44:33,520 --> 01:44:36,519 Speaker 1: think the ripple effect of all the improved pieces around 2279 01:44:36,600 --> 01:44:39,280 Speaker 1: him will not only help Josh Allen, it's also going 2280 01:44:39,320 --> 01:44:43,280 Speaker 1: to help the defense. And if they win maybe one 2281 01:44:43,360 --> 01:44:45,960 Speaker 1: or two special teams battles and get some feel position, 2282 01:44:46,000 --> 01:44:47,840 Speaker 1: you know, this whole team, you know, takes a big 2283 01:44:47,960 --> 01:44:50,400 Speaker 1: leap forward in this second in this second year of 2284 01:44:50,479 --> 01:44:52,439 Speaker 1: Josh's career, and it's not and none of that has 2285 01:44:52,479 --> 01:44:56,720 Speaker 1: to do with even him getting better. So granted, that's 2286 01:44:57,040 --> 01:44:58,800 Speaker 1: a whole lot of question marks, a whole lot of 2287 01:44:58,800 --> 01:45:03,160 Speaker 1: wait and see, but certainly from the early returns you 2288 01:45:03,240 --> 01:45:04,640 Speaker 1: have every right to expect it. It is going to 2289 01:45:04,680 --> 01:45:07,600 Speaker 1: be significantly different on the offensive side of the bowl because, 2290 01:45:07,640 --> 01:45:09,640 Speaker 1: like we said, it was historically bad at times last year, 2291 01:45:09,720 --> 01:45:11,360 Speaker 1: so it needs to be better. To me that the 2292 01:45:11,439 --> 01:45:13,120 Speaker 1: thing that I want to see in this camp outside 2293 01:45:13,160 --> 01:45:16,000 Speaker 1: of Josh, the non Josh Allent division, is how do 2294 01:45:16,160 --> 01:45:18,560 Speaker 1: the Bills build this offensive line? You know, we know 2295 01:45:18,920 --> 01:45:20,880 Speaker 1: that they got to find five good players, or at 2296 01:45:20,920 --> 01:45:23,160 Speaker 1: least five guys that can work together. How do you 2297 01:45:23,200 --> 01:45:24,519 Speaker 1: do it? How do you manage the reps? You know, 2298 01:45:24,600 --> 01:45:26,640 Speaker 1: so far we've seen Cody Ford, the rook you get 2299 01:45:26,680 --> 01:45:28,639 Speaker 1: in first team reps. To me, I think I would 2300 01:45:28,680 --> 01:45:30,920 Speaker 1: have started with Tian Secki, the veteran, because you'd think 2301 01:45:30,960 --> 01:45:32,439 Speaker 1: that might be a guy that would be a little 2302 01:45:33,080 --> 01:45:35,160 Speaker 1: quickly able to pick things up. I mean, now, look, 2303 01:45:35,160 --> 01:45:37,439 Speaker 1: I'm not standing the meetings and seeing everything that The 2304 01:45:37,520 --> 01:45:39,760 Speaker 1: point is, how do you figure out who gets the 2305 01:45:39,800 --> 01:45:41,479 Speaker 1: first team reps in this practice? And how do you 2306 01:45:41,680 --> 01:45:43,639 Speaker 1: how do you know that in ski maybe he doesn't 2307 01:45:43,680 --> 01:45:46,120 Speaker 1: look great next to Spencer Long, but he put him 2308 01:45:46,160 --> 01:45:48,320 Speaker 1: next to Fliciano and those two guys are better. I know, 2309 01:45:48,439 --> 01:45:51,760 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So and here's the thing too, 2310 01:45:51,880 --> 01:45:54,960 Speaker 1: I do think they got something. Maybe not a lot, 2311 01:45:55,000 --> 01:45:56,599 Speaker 1: but I think you got a lot of stuff out 2312 01:45:56,640 --> 01:45:59,599 Speaker 1: of those OTAs and mini camps. They saw these guys, 2313 01:45:59,640 --> 01:46:02,880 Speaker 1: talked him, got him in the room, coached him up, 2314 01:46:03,200 --> 01:46:05,599 Speaker 1: listened to the response of the coaching, watched the response 2315 01:46:05,640 --> 01:46:08,640 Speaker 1: of the coaching on the field throughout all those OTAs, 2316 01:46:08,680 --> 01:46:10,120 Speaker 1: and I think that's how they got to this point. 2317 01:46:10,200 --> 01:46:12,920 Speaker 1: They may they probably have a plan with Cody Ford. 2318 01:46:12,960 --> 01:46:14,880 Speaker 1: I would think that is they're gonna saying we're gonna 2319 01:46:14,880 --> 01:46:16,519 Speaker 1: start him at right tackle and keep it simple for 2320 01:46:16,600 --> 01:46:19,559 Speaker 1: him and let him compete. If he's our starting right tackle, 2321 01:46:19,920 --> 01:46:22,280 Speaker 1: then we're really deep, because Inseci is a guy that's 2322 01:46:22,360 --> 01:46:25,400 Speaker 1: good enough to start. We're deep at tackle, and then 2323 01:46:25,439 --> 01:46:27,519 Speaker 1: we can figure out what we're gonna do at guard next. 2324 01:46:27,560 --> 01:46:32,439 Speaker 1: And they've been They've they switched out Spencer Long for 2325 01:46:32,960 --> 01:46:34,479 Speaker 1: the other guard that was in yesterday, and I kept 2326 01:46:34,520 --> 01:46:37,840 Speaker 1: Feliciano Feliciano and Spencer Long today. Tomorrow it might be 2327 01:46:38,560 --> 01:46:42,040 Speaker 1: Quentin Spain and Ike Buttker switching out tomorrow, or whoever 2328 01:46:42,080 --> 01:46:45,439 Speaker 1: it's or Russ Bodine even who knows. So you're right. 2329 01:46:46,479 --> 01:46:47,960 Speaker 1: We've talked about it, and I said this a couple 2330 01:46:48,000 --> 01:46:51,120 Speaker 1: of different times on the air. It almost seems when 2331 01:46:51,120 --> 01:46:53,120 Speaker 1: you start talking about what all they have to figure out, 2332 01:46:53,200 --> 01:46:56,719 Speaker 1: it seems like it's insurmountable until you realize they're putting 2333 01:46:56,720 --> 01:46:58,519 Speaker 1: in all day every day and figuring it out. So 2334 01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:01,000 Speaker 1: we'll have to wait and see. But I think and 2335 01:47:01,080 --> 01:47:03,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna I told him it's not gonna happen until 2336 01:47:03,840 --> 01:47:05,800 Speaker 1: the last week of the preseason. It's gonna happened going 2337 01:47:05,800 --> 01:47:08,080 Speaker 1: into the opening game, they'll finally decide who those five are. 2338 01:47:08,240 --> 01:47:09,920 Speaker 1: You're gonna give it every rep to find out. And 2339 01:47:10,000 --> 01:47:11,840 Speaker 1: even then, you know, I don't think it's the worst 2340 01:47:11,880 --> 01:47:13,880 Speaker 1: thing in the world to go into the Week one 2341 01:47:13,960 --> 01:47:15,960 Speaker 1: with one group of five and then maybe two weeks in, 2342 01:47:16,040 --> 01:47:18,240 Speaker 1: all right, this isn't working. Let's try this other guy, 2343 01:47:18,360 --> 01:47:20,280 Speaker 1: because they have enough depth. Like you said, if they 2344 01:47:20,320 --> 01:47:22,920 Speaker 1: start with Cody Ford as the number one right tackle, 2345 01:47:23,240 --> 01:47:24,800 Speaker 1: you can put in second and you might not be 2346 01:47:24,880 --> 01:47:26,639 Speaker 1: going down. You might be improving. He's not. Yeah, he's 2347 01:47:26,640 --> 01:47:28,840 Speaker 1: got options. They're not gonna fall off the click exactly 2348 01:47:28,880 --> 01:47:31,120 Speaker 1: like they did Week one in Baltimore last year. Yeah, 2349 01:47:31,120 --> 01:47:33,400 Speaker 1: so I'm yeah, I'm with you totally on that. But 2350 01:47:34,960 --> 01:47:37,680 Speaker 1: they got fifteen or seventeen guys on the roster with 2351 01:47:37,920 --> 01:47:40,479 Speaker 1: you know, with now with Searles on ir he's not 2352 01:47:40,600 --> 01:47:42,599 Speaker 1: he's out of the picture. But they got three full 2353 01:47:42,680 --> 01:47:45,960 Speaker 1: offensive lines. That's a lot to do. It's a lot 2354 01:47:46,040 --> 01:47:49,000 Speaker 1: to do. Ded Brown w ro OCTV sports director here 2355 01:47:49,040 --> 01:47:51,040 Speaker 1: in Rochester is with us. Got a caller on the line, 2356 01:47:51,080 --> 01:47:53,839 Speaker 1: got a question about Josh Shallen, Tom and West Seneca 2357 01:47:53,920 --> 01:47:59,479 Speaker 1: High Time go ahead around the year, Tom, are you 2358 01:47:59,560 --> 01:48:04,160 Speaker 1: there not there any longer? Um? The offensive line so far, 2359 01:48:04,640 --> 01:48:08,680 Speaker 1: we've talked about it two practices in. We're making sweeping observations, 2360 01:48:08,680 --> 01:48:10,760 Speaker 1: by the way, after two practices, but that's what we do. 2361 01:48:10,880 --> 01:48:13,080 Speaker 1: Though they all too soon conclude. All right, right, And 2362 01:48:13,240 --> 01:48:16,879 Speaker 1: and as you guys have just pointed out, there's evidence 2363 01:48:16,920 --> 01:48:19,240 Speaker 1: of some flexibility and some versatility with some of these 2364 01:48:19,320 --> 01:48:21,439 Speaker 1: guys that I think has to bode well in the future, 2365 01:48:21,640 --> 01:48:24,120 Speaker 1: right think. I mean, and again, options are good, Yeah, 2366 01:48:24,240 --> 01:48:27,200 Speaker 1: you know, an ability to you know, try one thing 2367 01:48:27,280 --> 01:48:29,080 Speaker 1: and go to something else that doesn't work is good. 2368 01:48:29,120 --> 01:48:31,519 Speaker 1: And I mean, we've talked about the possibility of Dion 2369 01:48:31,600 --> 01:48:33,880 Speaker 1: Dawkins possibly going inside. Cody Ford is a guy that 2370 01:48:34,240 --> 01:48:37,519 Speaker 1: has been talked about potentially as could be a guard. Um. 2371 01:48:37,640 --> 01:48:39,240 Speaker 1: You know, they've got guys in the middle that can 2372 01:48:39,320 --> 01:48:42,240 Speaker 1: be you know, swing guards and centers. So there's reason 2373 01:48:42,280 --> 01:48:45,160 Speaker 1: to be encouraged about the offensive line. The point of this, though, 2374 01:48:45,160 --> 01:48:46,519 Speaker 1: is to put five guys out that they can win 2375 01:48:46,600 --> 01:48:48,719 Speaker 1: games on Sunday in September, you know, and the Bills, 2376 01:48:48,960 --> 01:48:50,760 Speaker 1: I don't think they're close to that right now. Like 2377 01:48:51,040 --> 01:48:53,360 Speaker 1: I agree with Steve that they have a plan, they're 2378 01:48:53,479 --> 01:48:55,240 Speaker 1: very likely executing it the way they wanted to go. 2379 01:48:55,800 --> 01:48:57,760 Speaker 1: But you know this is not This is not an 2380 01:48:57,800 --> 01:49:00,280 Speaker 1: offense right this second that I wanted to pend on 2381 01:49:00,320 --> 01:49:02,439 Speaker 1: to win games right now, because I don't know if 2382 01:49:02,479 --> 01:49:04,400 Speaker 1: I can trust the offensive line. I don't know if 2383 01:49:04,439 --> 01:49:06,720 Speaker 1: Josh Allen can find Cole Beasley right this second. After 2384 01:49:06,760 --> 01:49:09,280 Speaker 1: the two practices I've seen so far, there's a lot 2385 01:49:09,320 --> 01:49:11,559 Speaker 1: of growth. This offense needs to get to the point 2386 01:49:11,600 --> 01:49:14,280 Speaker 1: where this can be a playoff team. This defense is fantastic, 2387 01:49:14,640 --> 01:49:16,080 Speaker 1: but I don't know in the NFL anymore, if you 2388 01:49:16,120 --> 01:49:18,719 Speaker 1: can make the playoffs with just the number two overall defense, 2389 01:49:18,800 --> 01:49:20,920 Speaker 1: you need an offense that can, you know, put the 2390 01:49:20,960 --> 01:49:25,560 Speaker 1: fear of God into teams occasionally. And last year this 2391 01:49:25,640 --> 01:49:27,519 Speaker 1: defense was number two in the league. They got lit 2392 01:49:27,600 --> 01:49:29,400 Speaker 1: up by the Chargers, they got lit up by Baltimore, 2393 01:49:29,680 --> 01:49:31,840 Speaker 1: Indianapolis scored thirty on them. I mean, these games are 2394 01:49:31,840 --> 01:49:33,639 Speaker 1: gonna happen just because the way the NFL is. If 2395 01:49:33,680 --> 01:49:36,080 Speaker 1: they were just say they were fantastic because they are 2396 01:49:36,400 --> 01:49:38,640 Speaker 1: in the NFL relative to the league now they are, 2397 01:49:39,080 --> 01:49:41,400 Speaker 1: But you can't I don't think you can have. This 2398 01:49:41,640 --> 01:49:44,040 Speaker 1: was our discussion for most of the drive down here 2399 01:49:44,080 --> 01:49:46,800 Speaker 1: this morning, really just assessing the defense. Good second in 2400 01:49:46,800 --> 01:49:48,519 Speaker 1: the league last year. I get all that, and there 2401 01:49:48,560 --> 01:49:50,439 Speaker 1: were good moments. There were some bad moments and some 2402 01:49:50,880 --> 01:49:54,840 Speaker 1: serious failings. Right red zone. They were even Micah Hyde 2403 01:49:54,880 --> 01:49:56,040 Speaker 1: came out on our show and he looked at us, 2404 01:49:56,280 --> 01:49:58,920 Speaker 1: our defense, and the red zone was horrible. He used 2405 01:49:58,920 --> 01:50:01,320 Speaker 1: the word horrible. He said, were horrible. So we're working 2406 01:50:01,360 --> 01:50:04,519 Speaker 1: on that. Do we want week one? I mean day one? Uh. 2407 01:50:04,600 --> 01:50:06,240 Speaker 1: Then he also said, listen, this is a team that 2408 01:50:06,240 --> 01:50:08,760 Speaker 1: gave up one hundred fifteen yards of game rushing I mean, 2409 01:50:09,600 --> 01:50:12,439 Speaker 1: and they were put in bad spots by poor special 2410 01:50:12,520 --> 01:50:14,880 Speaker 1: teams play and bad field positions, so teams had to 2411 01:50:14,960 --> 01:50:18,280 Speaker 1: go shorter fields. They didn't turn out the turn actually 2412 01:50:18,320 --> 01:50:21,320 Speaker 1: they turned out almost you know, the same kind of 2413 01:50:21,400 --> 01:50:23,040 Speaker 1: level of turnovers they did a year before, but the 2414 01:50:23,120 --> 01:50:25,840 Speaker 1: offense turned it over three times more, so there was 2415 01:50:25,960 --> 01:50:27,840 Speaker 1: you know, it was a different They were minus in 2416 01:50:27,880 --> 01:50:30,120 Speaker 1: the in the turnover column and minus five instead of 2417 01:50:30,200 --> 01:50:32,000 Speaker 1: like a plus fifteen, which is where you know, a 2418 01:50:32,120 --> 01:50:34,840 Speaker 1: nice playoff team or a deep playoff run would take 2419 01:50:34,840 --> 01:50:37,800 Speaker 1: you right. You need to go plus on the on 2420 01:50:37,920 --> 01:50:40,800 Speaker 1: the turnover margin, so they were up against it. And 2421 01:50:41,040 --> 01:50:44,320 Speaker 1: they never played an offense because of the struggles are 2422 01:50:44,439 --> 01:50:47,960 Speaker 1: the Bills offense had. The Bills defense never faced an 2423 01:50:48,040 --> 01:50:50,600 Speaker 1: offense that was in desperation mode. They never had to 2424 01:50:50,640 --> 01:50:52,719 Speaker 1: air it out. You never turned out an extra turnover, 2425 01:50:52,760 --> 01:50:56,160 Speaker 1: you never got an extra um, you never got an 2426 01:50:56,240 --> 01:50:58,360 Speaker 1: extra possession in a game that was, you know, it 2427 01:50:58,439 --> 01:51:01,080 Speaker 1: was tight. These teams they just handed off and they 2428 01:51:01,120 --> 01:51:03,160 Speaker 1: were they were doing it because they knew they only 2429 01:51:03,200 --> 01:51:06,400 Speaker 1: had to score about, well, on average, fifteen and a 2430 01:51:06,439 --> 01:51:09,599 Speaker 1: half points a game to win. So two touchdowns and hey, 2431 01:51:09,680 --> 01:51:11,120 Speaker 1: you know what, we're good. All we gotta do is 2432 01:51:11,160 --> 01:51:13,559 Speaker 1: just let these guys turn it over or go three 2433 01:51:13,600 --> 01:51:16,120 Speaker 1: and out again, we'll get the ball back. So that 2434 01:51:16,439 --> 01:51:19,080 Speaker 1: wore on this defense. And despite the fact that they 2435 01:51:19,240 --> 01:51:20,920 Speaker 1: got lit up week one, lit up week two, and 2436 01:51:20,920 --> 01:51:25,800 Speaker 1: then lit up in Indianapolis, they were pretty stout. They 2437 01:51:25,840 --> 01:51:28,679 Speaker 1: were pretty stout. Not spectacular. They didn't get any sacks 2438 01:51:28,680 --> 01:51:31,840 Speaker 1: because teams didn't drop back on them very much, but 2439 01:51:31,920 --> 01:51:34,160 Speaker 1: they were pretty stout. And I think, you know, you 2440 01:51:34,240 --> 01:51:36,640 Speaker 1: gotta think though, they got some things they got to 2441 01:51:36,640 --> 01:51:39,040 Speaker 1: work on well, and McDermott was asked about that today 2442 01:51:39,040 --> 01:51:40,920 Speaker 1: and he mentioned it right talking about being tougher. We 2443 01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:43,120 Speaker 1: gotta be tougher. Sean McDermott asked today, well, how do 2444 01:51:43,200 --> 01:51:44,840 Speaker 1: you make a defense tougher? Here's what he had to 2445 01:51:44,880 --> 01:51:48,000 Speaker 1: say in response to that. We gotta practice that way. 2446 01:51:48,080 --> 01:51:49,840 Speaker 1: You know what you do in practice, you're doing the games, 2447 01:51:49,880 --> 01:51:52,120 Speaker 1: and that just comes. We got a lot of work 2448 01:51:52,160 --> 01:51:55,280 Speaker 1: to do, right, So every year is different and every 2449 01:51:55,439 --> 01:51:58,360 Speaker 1: every unit's different every year. So defensively in this case, 2450 01:51:58,600 --> 01:52:01,320 Speaker 1: you know, we've got to build into that. I don't 2451 01:52:01,360 --> 01:52:03,800 Speaker 1: think you just come out and and say right away, 2452 01:52:03,800 --> 01:52:05,880 Speaker 1: I'm going to flip the switch and it's gonna be different. 2453 01:52:05,920 --> 01:52:07,960 Speaker 1: So we've got to that's got to be a daily 2454 01:52:08,600 --> 01:52:12,240 Speaker 1: approach to daily intensity of daily attitude and um, the 2455 01:52:12,360 --> 01:52:19,720 Speaker 1: same way it is with developing fundamentals and technique or 2456 01:52:19,760 --> 01:52:22,680 Speaker 1: aggressive what's what's your turn? Now? Yeah? You just you 2457 01:52:22,760 --> 01:52:24,559 Speaker 1: know and look you feel it? You know you want 2458 01:52:24,600 --> 01:52:25,960 Speaker 1: I want to be able to feel our defense a 2459 01:52:26,000 --> 01:52:28,800 Speaker 1: little bit more than I did. Uh I did last season, 2460 01:52:31,160 --> 01:52:33,160 Speaker 1: Sean McDermot, Now, how to make the defense tough for 2461 01:52:33,320 --> 01:52:35,160 Speaker 1: the look. They're not in pad yet, so there's no 2462 01:52:35,280 --> 01:52:37,960 Speaker 1: evidence of that. Yet there's still some talented defenders out 2463 01:52:37,960 --> 01:52:40,040 Speaker 1: there though. Really good. I mean they're really good. I 2464 01:52:40,040 --> 01:52:42,600 Speaker 1: mean they bring back ten I know I'm trying to 2465 01:52:42,640 --> 01:52:44,840 Speaker 1: convince you here a little bit, but I think they're good. 2466 01:52:45,040 --> 01:52:46,880 Speaker 1: They bring back ten of eleven starters last year. I 2467 01:52:46,920 --> 01:52:48,639 Speaker 1: don't look at this defense and find a hole anywhere. 2468 01:52:48,680 --> 01:52:50,120 Speaker 1: Maybe the second corner. You could have a little bit 2469 01:52:50,160 --> 01:52:52,080 Speaker 1: of a question about. They're even very good at nickel. 2470 01:52:52,120 --> 01:52:53,880 Speaker 1: I mean they've been running EJ. Gaines as the second 2471 01:52:54,000 --> 01:52:55,920 Speaker 1: nickel right now. You know that guy can start a 2472 01:52:55,960 --> 01:52:57,760 Speaker 1: corner for a lot of teams in this league, you know. 2473 01:52:57,840 --> 01:52:59,479 Speaker 1: And Steve brought up the number of rushing yards they 2474 01:52:59,479 --> 01:53:01,360 Speaker 1: allowed last and you alluded to it a little bit. 2475 01:53:01,680 --> 01:53:03,760 Speaker 1: You get down, you get behind. Teams are gonna run 2476 01:53:03,760 --> 01:53:04,840 Speaker 1: the ball and you all day because they don't have 2477 01:53:04,840 --> 01:53:06,240 Speaker 1: to worry about throwing it. And that's the part of 2478 01:53:06,280 --> 01:53:08,559 Speaker 1: I think, if you can't score, they're not gonna give 2479 01:53:08,600 --> 01:53:10,479 Speaker 1: you a free one. How many times last year did 2480 01:53:10,479 --> 01:53:12,719 Speaker 1: we see a team maybe up less than a touchdown, 2481 01:53:13,040 --> 01:53:15,240 Speaker 1: act like they didn't even care about scoring because they 2482 01:53:15,240 --> 01:53:16,680 Speaker 1: didn't feel like they had to. You know, you can 2483 01:53:16,720 --> 01:53:19,519 Speaker 1: win game seventeen to ten against that offense last year. Right, 2484 01:53:19,760 --> 01:53:22,240 Speaker 1: So going back to the original point where we started 2485 01:53:22,240 --> 01:53:24,880 Speaker 1: with this, the Bill's offense, no matter how good the 2486 01:53:24,960 --> 01:53:27,559 Speaker 1: defense is, I don't think you can win ten games 2487 01:53:27,680 --> 01:53:30,960 Speaker 1: with that alone. You need an offense that's at least average, 2488 01:53:31,120 --> 01:53:34,360 Speaker 1: at least can be dangerous at times. And late in 2489 01:53:34,360 --> 01:53:37,080 Speaker 1: the year they were Can they extend that for sixteen games? 2490 01:53:37,080 --> 01:53:38,680 Speaker 1: We'll find that out. Here's a question for you. Third 2491 01:53:38,720 --> 01:53:40,760 Speaker 1: Brown is with us from a month w ro OCTV 2492 01:53:41,000 --> 01:53:43,920 Speaker 1: year in Rochester. Back to the offense, and it's only 2493 01:53:43,960 --> 01:53:47,040 Speaker 1: two days in, and I'm interested in your observation. I 2494 01:53:47,160 --> 01:53:49,680 Speaker 1: see no real clear picture yet. It running back right 2495 01:53:49,720 --> 01:53:51,639 Speaker 1: as far as who's getting the reps, who's on the roster, 2496 01:53:51,760 --> 01:53:54,599 Speaker 1: who's going to be lining up? Where you know one, two, three? 2497 01:53:54,760 --> 01:53:56,720 Speaker 1: You see anything yet? I mean, so far it's been 2498 01:53:56,800 --> 01:53:58,840 Speaker 1: Lashaw McCoy and then frankcore. I mean like bang bang, 2499 01:53:58,960 --> 01:54:00,880 Speaker 1: you know, one gets the first app one get the second. 2500 01:54:01,200 --> 01:54:03,599 Speaker 1: And I don't see any reason to think one guy 2501 01:54:03,760 --> 01:54:05,880 Speaker 1: or the other is gonna be you know, heavy carry wise. 2502 01:54:05,920 --> 01:54:07,600 Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of Devin Singletary. Yes, you know, 2503 01:54:07,680 --> 01:54:09,240 Speaker 1: especially with the first team, you'll lead the team in 2504 01:54:09,320 --> 01:54:11,680 Speaker 1: rushes this preseason. You think in preseason, yeah, I think 2505 01:54:12,280 --> 01:54:15,000 Speaker 1: season No. Um, I think t J Yelden is a 2506 01:54:15,160 --> 01:54:16,760 Speaker 1: long shot to make the team at this point. And 2507 01:54:17,080 --> 01:54:19,640 Speaker 1: through two days, I've seen nothing that has dissuaded me 2508 01:54:19,720 --> 01:54:22,360 Speaker 1: from that. There's Frank Gore is not sitting on the 2509 01:54:22,439 --> 01:54:25,559 Speaker 1: bench waiting for the fifth rep or the next drill. 2510 01:54:25,880 --> 01:54:28,960 Speaker 1: You know, it is shady and then Gore right away, right, 2511 01:54:29,360 --> 01:54:35,000 Speaker 1: and all this is gonna shake out and it remains 2512 01:54:35,040 --> 01:54:37,720 Speaker 1: to be seen. Uh, And there's so many about it 2513 01:54:37,800 --> 01:54:39,160 Speaker 1: that you know, a lot of it has to do 2514 01:54:39,200 --> 01:54:40,360 Speaker 1: with Josh, but a lot of it has to do 2515 01:54:40,440 --> 01:54:42,680 Speaker 1: with the expectations of the guys around Josh and like 2516 01:54:42,840 --> 01:54:45,080 Speaker 1: and starting with the offensive line and then going to 2517 01:54:45,200 --> 01:54:48,320 Speaker 1: Frank Gore, Lashawn McCoy and and all the questions about 2518 01:54:48,320 --> 01:54:50,440 Speaker 1: two guys that you've got on your roster plane running 2519 01:54:50,440 --> 01:54:54,560 Speaker 1: back that are thirty plus years old. Are you concerned 2520 01:54:54,560 --> 01:54:56,280 Speaker 1: about that the age of the running back? You have 2521 01:54:56,400 --> 01:54:58,920 Speaker 1: to be. I mean, look, Frank Gore, give him credit, 2522 01:54:59,080 --> 01:55:02,280 Speaker 1: and he's on believably the ageless wonder, I mean wonder 2523 01:55:02,440 --> 01:55:05,840 Speaker 1: is the word underline it. But at some point he 2524 01:55:05,960 --> 01:55:07,280 Speaker 1: is going to reach the end of his career and 2525 01:55:07,400 --> 01:55:10,080 Speaker 1: every year he continues is a year closer to getting 2526 01:55:10,080 --> 01:55:13,120 Speaker 1: to that point. Depending on those two guys, you know, 2527 01:55:13,360 --> 01:55:15,240 Speaker 1: is a risk, to say the least. Now, I personally 2528 01:55:15,320 --> 01:55:18,240 Speaker 1: think Leshawn McCoy did not lose nearly as much as 2529 01:55:18,280 --> 01:55:19,760 Speaker 1: people thought he did last year. I thought he was 2530 01:55:19,800 --> 01:55:23,760 Speaker 1: a function of the offense in general, on the offensive 2531 01:55:23,800 --> 01:55:26,560 Speaker 1: line in particular around him. I still think you can 2532 01:55:26,600 --> 01:55:29,200 Speaker 1: depend on that guy to be, you know, a bell carrier, 2533 01:55:29,520 --> 01:55:31,680 Speaker 1: a Bell Weather running back. Maybe not you know what 2534 01:55:31,800 --> 01:55:33,840 Speaker 1: he was three years ago, but ninety percent of that. 2535 01:55:34,040 --> 01:55:36,760 Speaker 1: So I still believe in Leshawn McCoy is a lead back. 2536 01:55:36,840 --> 01:55:39,320 Speaker 1: I think Frank Gore as a secondary guy to take 2537 01:55:39,320 --> 01:55:41,680 Speaker 1: away some carries, keep Leshan fresh is fine. And I 2538 01:55:41,760 --> 01:55:44,680 Speaker 1: mentioned to see what Devin Singletary does. So I'm probably 2539 01:55:44,760 --> 01:55:46,600 Speaker 1: higher on this running back group than most people. But 2540 01:55:47,040 --> 01:55:49,760 Speaker 1: you know, I have to be honest. You know, you 2541 01:55:49,840 --> 01:55:52,760 Speaker 1: see two guys thirty plus there's a problem there and 2542 01:55:52,920 --> 01:55:55,480 Speaker 1: and you know depending on that, you know, to me, 2543 01:55:55,960 --> 01:55:58,560 Speaker 1: is you know, certainly a risk. This is why the 2544 01:55:58,680 --> 01:56:01,320 Speaker 1: growth of Josh Allen is so paramount in this camp, 2545 01:56:01,400 --> 01:56:03,680 Speaker 1: in this preseason, early in the season, because we may 2546 01:56:03,720 --> 01:56:06,120 Speaker 1: get to a point where the offense is dependent upon him, 2547 01:56:06,640 --> 01:56:09,200 Speaker 1: where defensive coordinators are begain planning for him, and not 2548 01:56:09,320 --> 01:56:11,160 Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy like they would have been the last two years. 2549 01:56:11,320 --> 01:56:13,600 Speaker 1: Dad Brown, not just the sports director of w r 2550 01:56:13,760 --> 01:56:18,720 Speaker 1: OCTV here in Rochester, also sideline reporter on Bill's preseason telecasts. 2551 01:56:18,840 --> 01:56:21,840 Speaker 1: Mister taskers there, Andrew Cavalon will be there less than 2552 01:56:21,880 --> 01:56:24,720 Speaker 1: two weeks away, two weeks from yesterday, your first game 2553 01:56:25,040 --> 01:56:28,120 Speaker 1: August eighth against the Indianapolis Colts. Let me take my 2554 01:56:28,160 --> 01:56:31,200 Speaker 1: hat off to you, fellas. Preseason games are hard, and 2555 01:56:31,320 --> 01:56:33,640 Speaker 1: they're hard. It's not just the roster size either, right, 2556 01:56:33,760 --> 01:56:36,000 Speaker 1: My belief is, and I'm doing them too on radio, 2557 01:56:36,040 --> 01:56:39,040 Speaker 1: but it's there's no there's no strategy, there's no pace 2558 01:56:39,120 --> 01:56:41,720 Speaker 1: to the game. It's it's twenty two different auditions going 2559 01:56:41,760 --> 01:56:43,240 Speaker 1: on at once. It's kind of hard to do, right. 2560 01:56:43,240 --> 01:56:45,360 Speaker 1: It's a lot of herky jerky as well. Yeah, officials 2561 01:56:45,600 --> 01:56:47,560 Speaker 1: pay a lot of a lot of penalties, it seems, 2562 01:56:48,960 --> 01:56:51,640 Speaker 1: and and by design, I mean, you know, we always 2563 01:56:51,640 --> 01:56:54,160 Speaker 1: talk about it. The league puts these directors out, says listen, 2564 01:56:54,200 --> 01:56:55,760 Speaker 1: we want to teach these guys that we're gonna call 2565 01:56:55,800 --> 01:56:57,720 Speaker 1: it this way this year so start calling, so you 2566 01:56:57,840 --> 01:57:01,760 Speaker 1: get extra holding calls in certain situations and certain certain 2567 01:57:01,760 --> 01:57:03,879 Speaker 1: pass plays. You're gonna see a lot of pete DPI 2568 01:57:04,120 --> 01:57:07,120 Speaker 1: or an OPI this preseason because there's a new rule change. 2569 01:57:07,520 --> 01:57:09,680 Speaker 1: So you got to suffer through that as an announcer 2570 01:57:09,760 --> 01:57:12,720 Speaker 1: and a team too. And the game is like handoff right, 2571 01:57:12,960 --> 01:57:16,720 Speaker 1: handoff left. You know, maybe you know, let's send them 2572 01:57:16,800 --> 01:57:19,520 Speaker 1: deep and there's you know, no chance of a completion. 2573 01:57:19,640 --> 01:57:21,960 Speaker 1: They throw it over the head or whatever. It looks awful. 2574 01:57:22,000 --> 01:57:24,160 Speaker 1: So at least as a sideline reporter, you get to 2575 01:57:24,480 --> 01:57:26,440 Speaker 1: almost do feature tool. That's what I was gonna say. 2576 01:57:26,480 --> 01:57:28,080 Speaker 1: You know, I don't want to speak for Steve. His 2577 01:57:28,360 --> 01:57:32,240 Speaker 1: sideline repertoire far exceeds mine. But I think that a 2578 01:57:32,320 --> 01:57:34,600 Speaker 1: preseason game is great for a sideline reporter because there's 2579 01:57:34,600 --> 01:57:36,200 Speaker 1: plenty of chances for hey, let's go it on to 2580 01:57:36,280 --> 01:57:39,440 Speaker 1: FED and we'll talk about whatever Thed wants to talk about, 2581 01:57:39,560 --> 01:57:41,400 Speaker 1: because you know what the score of the game is, 2582 01:57:41,440 --> 01:57:43,080 Speaker 1: how much time is left is, and you know how 2583 01:57:43,120 --> 01:57:44,920 Speaker 1: much lower priority. And it's also one of those things 2584 01:57:44,920 --> 01:57:45,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if we'll be able to do it 2585 01:57:45,920 --> 01:57:47,360 Speaker 1: this year. It's always a question when you come in 2586 01:57:47,440 --> 01:57:49,720 Speaker 1: we'll ask you know, Sean McDermott a production meaning, Hey, 2587 01:57:50,480 --> 01:57:52,280 Speaker 1: once these guys come out and take their pads off, 2588 01:57:52,320 --> 01:57:53,760 Speaker 1: can we get them during the fourth quarter of the 2589 01:57:53,800 --> 01:57:55,280 Speaker 1: game to come over and do a live inter You 2590 01:57:55,360 --> 01:57:57,320 Speaker 1: do a live interview with a guy who actually played 2591 01:57:57,320 --> 01:57:59,880 Speaker 1: in the game while the game is going on. Great, yeah, 2592 01:58:00,440 --> 01:58:03,040 Speaker 1: and it's like, wow, that's you know, that's easy. So 2593 01:58:03,600 --> 01:58:05,160 Speaker 1: and you can you could talk to the guy for 2594 01:58:06,080 --> 01:58:08,840 Speaker 1: as really as long as we can possibly fit it in. Right, 2595 01:58:08,920 --> 01:58:10,760 Speaker 1: it was like not just keep yeah, ask him this, 2596 01:58:10,960 --> 01:58:13,680 Speaker 1: you know. So they're like, my task is still in 2597 01:58:13,720 --> 01:58:18,480 Speaker 1: the bathroom asking so yeah. And in that respect, there's 2598 01:58:18,480 --> 01:58:19,880 Speaker 1: a lot you can do with it because it is 2599 01:58:19,880 --> 01:58:22,920 Speaker 1: a little more casual atmosphere and broadcast atmosphere as well 2600 01:58:22,960 --> 01:58:25,880 Speaker 1: for us, because there are you know, two thousand guys 2601 01:58:25,960 --> 01:58:28,360 Speaker 1: on the roster, and you've got a lot of stories 2602 01:58:28,480 --> 01:58:32,400 Speaker 1: that are really compelling about people are cheering for these guys. Somewhere, 2603 01:58:32,560 --> 01:58:36,200 Speaker 1: some someplace, there's a person who is tuned into the 2604 01:58:36,280 --> 01:58:40,840 Speaker 1: game just to see the last rookie free agent that 2605 01:58:40,960 --> 01:58:45,520 Speaker 1: they signed get one rep, you know, and they ain't 2606 01:58:45,600 --> 01:58:47,760 Speaker 1: leaving until they see it, and to talk about him, 2607 01:58:47,840 --> 01:58:49,520 Speaker 1: have a chance to speak to me, You get a 2608 01:58:49,600 --> 01:58:51,240 Speaker 1: chance to say hi to a lot of people, and 2609 01:58:51,440 --> 01:58:53,240 Speaker 1: a lot of people that's the only reason they tune 2610 01:58:53,280 --> 01:58:55,480 Speaker 1: in for that first game coming up. They've got skin 2611 01:58:55,560 --> 01:58:57,680 Speaker 1: in the game, you know. Yeah, it's death for the 2612 01:58:57,920 --> 01:59:00,200 Speaker 1: Rochester or TV viewers whether they going to see tonight. 2613 01:59:00,240 --> 01:59:02,160 Speaker 1: What do he got coming up in your camp coverage tonight? Well, 2614 01:59:02,200 --> 01:59:03,960 Speaker 1: two things. First of all, the big story today was 2615 01:59:04,160 --> 01:59:06,560 Speaker 1: what Sean McDermott talked about with Kyle Peko coming back 2616 01:59:06,560 --> 01:59:09,040 Speaker 1: to camp, and I mean the way Kyle talked about 2617 01:59:09,080 --> 01:59:11,360 Speaker 1: it was very emotional, very heartfelt. I mean, what he's 2618 01:59:11,400 --> 01:59:13,880 Speaker 1: going through is unbelievable. But to be out here, you know, 2619 01:59:14,080 --> 01:59:16,280 Speaker 1: showing the commitment to his teammates and trying to make 2620 01:59:16,320 --> 01:59:18,720 Speaker 1: it work, I think was very impressive. I also talked 2621 01:59:18,760 --> 01:59:21,360 Speaker 1: with Cole Beasley today and talk a little bit about 2622 01:59:21,640 --> 01:59:23,320 Speaker 1: you know, where he's come his story. I mean, this 2623 01:59:23,440 --> 01:59:25,240 Speaker 1: is a guy that as a rookie almost retired from 2624 01:59:25,280 --> 01:59:27,360 Speaker 1: football and now here he is in Buffalo and says 2625 01:59:27,600 --> 01:59:29,880 Speaker 1: he's never been more excited to play a football season. 2626 01:59:29,880 --> 01:59:31,560 Speaker 1: So we're gonna hear about that on News eight today 2627 01:59:31,800 --> 01:59:34,640 Speaker 1: at six and also at our website.

Welcome back in today's steamy 2644 02:00:25,280 --> 02:00:29,160 Speaker 1: day here in Pittsburgh, New York, East Rochester, Pittsburgh. I 2645 02:00:29,200 --> 02:00:31,280 Speaker 1: think East Rochester was like twenty eight steps that way. 2646 02:00:31,560 --> 02:00:34,120 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's like ten steps that way. Anybody want to correct me? 2647 02:00:34,200 --> 02:00:36,720 Speaker 1: On there, but steamy. It was seventy eight degrees during 2648 02:00:36,760 --> 02:00:39,440 Speaker 1: practice today. I'm checking right now the temperature. It feels 2649 02:00:39,480 --> 02:00:41,880 Speaker 1: warmer and muggier here today, a little bit more cloud 2650 02:00:42,080 --> 02:00:44,800 Speaker 1: They say it's eighty three degrees here right now. And 2651 02:00:44,920 --> 02:00:48,040 Speaker 1: the forecast for tomorrow mostly Sunday skies tomorrow a few 2652 02:00:48,080 --> 02:00:50,360 Speaker 1: afternoon clouds with the high of eighty seven. Come on 2653 02:00:50,440 --> 02:00:53,080 Speaker 1: out to practice tomorrow, or so come out tomorrow and 2654 02:00:53,280 --> 02:00:55,640 Speaker 1: bake in eighty seven. Oh no, it's gonna be beautiful. 2655 02:00:55,640 --> 02:00:56,760 Speaker 1: So you want me to check on the bright do 2656 02:00:56,880 --> 02:01:00,480 Speaker 1: we get to Spartanburg. Not thinking about that yet, think 2657 02:01:00,560 --> 02:01:02,280 Speaker 1: I was saying, we're gonna have to take an umbrella 2658 02:01:02,440 --> 02:01:04,640 Speaker 1: or something. We've got to be out of the sun 2659 02:01:04,840 --> 02:01:08,560 Speaker 1: tomorrow during practice. It'll be sunny, seventy five eighty degrees, tolerable, 2660 02:01:08,600 --> 02:01:12,400 Speaker 1: more than tolerable. Absolutely on. Practice has been fun. Thanks 2661 02:01:12,440 --> 02:01:16,800 Speaker 1: to that Brown for joining us. Um. Look, I listened 2662 02:01:16,840 --> 02:01:19,200 Speaker 1: to that and hear what he said, and in talking 2663 02:01:19,200 --> 02:01:22,720 Speaker 1: about Josh Allen he mentioned, yeah, uneven, sure, I'll give 2664 02:01:22,760 --> 02:01:25,280 Speaker 1: you that. But I do think there was a steady 2665 02:01:25,640 --> 02:01:29,120 Speaker 1: upward climb in Josh Allen's performance today. I think that 2666 02:01:29,440 --> 02:01:32,600 Speaker 1: mid portion of today's workout when he was zinging passes 2667 02:01:32,600 --> 02:01:35,080 Speaker 1: over the middle, hitting guys in stride over the middle, 2668 02:01:35,120 --> 02:01:38,320 Speaker 1: was a highlight of the first two days. And let 2669 02:01:38,360 --> 02:01:40,840 Speaker 1: me say this, See my perception is probably colored by 2670 02:01:41,000 --> 02:01:44,960 Speaker 1: Josh's demeanor on our show at twelve noon today when 2671 02:01:45,040 --> 02:01:47,480 Speaker 1: he was pumped about his practice, about what he saw 2672 02:01:47,800 --> 02:01:50,200 Speaker 1: and the decisions he made. He was pumped. He thought 2673 02:01:50,240 --> 02:01:52,520 Speaker 1: he did well. Now he's not the ultimate judge either, 2674 02:01:52,600 --> 02:01:55,680 Speaker 1: but I listened to what that saying. We can we 2675 02:01:55,760 --> 02:01:58,800 Speaker 1: can handle the virgin opinions. You don't get pumped over 2676 02:02:00,120 --> 02:02:03,920 Speaker 1: in the same way you've always played. And he seems 2677 02:02:03,920 --> 02:02:06,800 Speaker 1: to be getting better by leaps and bounds and he 2678 02:02:06,960 --> 02:02:10,440 Speaker 1: like he was last season, and we'll see if it continues. 2679 02:02:10,520 --> 02:02:14,120 Speaker 1: And you've and the real thing for all of us, 2680 02:02:14,200 --> 02:02:17,400 Speaker 1: it is the unknown is how a better offensive line, 2681 02:02:17,520 --> 02:02:20,920 Speaker 1: a better group of wide receivers. How much that's going 2682 02:02:20,960 --> 02:02:22,880 Speaker 1: to help a guy who is already doing a lot 2683 02:02:22,960 --> 02:02:26,160 Speaker 1: to help himself. So that's why the optimism is running 2684 02:02:26,240 --> 02:02:28,880 Speaker 1: so high. There's every reason to believe everything's going to 2685 02:02:28,920 --> 02:02:32,000 Speaker 1: be better. But like Sean McDermot said in part of 2686 02:02:32,080 --> 02:02:35,160 Speaker 1: his remarks today, he goes, we got to generate points. 2687 02:02:35,720 --> 02:02:38,760 Speaker 1: You know, that's that's what it's all about, and that's 2688 02:02:38,920 --> 02:02:40,760 Speaker 1: what they've got to do better at. And we'll see 2689 02:02:40,760 --> 02:02:43,280 Speaker 1: if it translates that way. Hey, I had a couple, 2690 02:02:43,440 --> 02:02:46,640 Speaker 1: so I filled my notebook with practice observations. Can I 2691 02:02:46,720 --> 02:02:49,080 Speaker 1: go through these with you and maybe you can add 2692 02:02:49,120 --> 02:02:51,800 Speaker 1: something if you've see anything. So we talked last year 2693 02:02:51,800 --> 02:02:54,400 Speaker 1: a lot about how Brian Dable would just lock himself 2694 02:02:54,440 --> 02:02:57,040 Speaker 1: into the quarterback quarterback group and stay with him, and 2695 02:02:57,120 --> 02:02:59,040 Speaker 1: he does that a little bit now. But I watched 2696 02:02:59,080 --> 02:03:01,600 Speaker 1: this today. We talked Dawson Knox the third round picked 2697 02:03:01,640 --> 02:03:04,080 Speaker 1: the tight end, so we know they have high hopes 2698 02:03:04,080 --> 02:03:06,440 Speaker 1: for him. He's running with the first team again. Dawson 2699 02:03:06,480 --> 02:03:09,000 Speaker 1: Knox had one it was individual work early on in 2700 02:03:09,080 --> 02:03:11,920 Speaker 1: practice and he had one snap where Dawson slipped and 2701 02:03:12,080 --> 02:03:15,040 Speaker 1: fell and Dave boll And, he's former tight ends coach. 2702 02:03:15,080 --> 02:03:17,040 Speaker 1: Brian is two with the Patriots. Right, he had Gronkowski. 2703 02:03:17,080 --> 02:03:19,120 Speaker 1: You don't have to whisper that, but go ahead. Dave 2704 02:03:19,160 --> 02:03:21,760 Speaker 1: All goes up to Dawson Knox and mimics. He said, 2705 02:03:21,880 --> 02:03:23,280 Speaker 1: you get to see him. We're pretty far away, but 2706 02:03:23,360 --> 02:03:26,000 Speaker 1: he's saying, you're running like this, leaning backwards. That's why 2707 02:03:26,040 --> 02:03:28,800 Speaker 1: he slipped. And it was just interesting to see Dabo's 2708 02:03:28,840 --> 02:03:32,440 Speaker 1: attention to detail. And I'm not saying it's a minor thing, 2709 02:03:32,520 --> 02:03:34,640 Speaker 1: but he knows what he's doing with these guys, and 2710 02:03:34,720 --> 02:03:39,280 Speaker 1: he jumped on Dawson Knox and and directly confronted him 2711 02:03:39,320 --> 02:03:40,720 Speaker 1: and said, you got to fix that. I thought that 2712 02:03:40,840 --> 02:03:42,800 Speaker 1: was was pretty cool. You know what else we noticed 2713 02:03:43,600 --> 02:03:47,120 Speaker 1: and I read it on ESPN. I didn't notice yesterday. 2714 02:03:47,120 --> 02:03:50,040 Speaker 1: I noticed today during the individual work defensive backs versus 2715 02:03:50,120 --> 02:03:53,440 Speaker 1: wide receiver, several not all, but several defensive back safeties 2716 02:03:53,440 --> 02:03:55,960 Speaker 1: and corners put on oven mits, you know, like you 2717 02:03:56,080 --> 02:03:58,040 Speaker 1: use at home when you're taking the you know, the 2718 02:03:58,320 --> 02:04:01,520 Speaker 1: cost of the tuna cast roll is coming out of 2719 02:04:01,520 --> 02:04:03,200 Speaker 1: the other more like you and me when you're pulling 2720 02:04:03,200 --> 02:04:05,760 Speaker 1: the frozen pizza out after it's cooked, right and it's hot. 2721 02:04:06,000 --> 02:04:07,840 Speaker 1: They had oven mits on when they went through these 2722 02:04:07,920 --> 02:04:10,800 Speaker 1: individual drills. Now there's one particular drill where they're working 2723 02:04:10,800 --> 02:04:13,240 Speaker 1: on releases. Right, former wide receiver, tell us what they're 2724 02:04:13,240 --> 02:04:14,680 Speaker 1: doing and what those oven mits are all about. Well, 2725 02:04:14,720 --> 02:04:19,040 Speaker 1: what happened. You're not allowed to grab and pull jerseys, 2726 02:04:19,080 --> 02:04:21,600 Speaker 1: and what happens is now the rule is now that 2727 02:04:21,720 --> 02:04:24,400 Speaker 1: if they see your hand a DB's hand with a 2728 02:04:24,440 --> 02:04:27,640 Speaker 1: handful of jersey, if a jersey's pulled away from the 2729 02:04:27,720 --> 02:04:31,120 Speaker 1: body of the receiver that's holding. And so they put 2730 02:04:31,160 --> 02:04:34,040 Speaker 1: these oven mits on to keep them from being able 2731 02:04:34,400 --> 02:04:38,400 Speaker 1: to get used to playing well without having to grab jersey, 2732 02:04:38,720 --> 02:04:41,400 Speaker 1: to getting position with your body rather than trying to 2733 02:04:41,600 --> 02:04:44,360 Speaker 1: push the receiver back into position, into positions so you 2734 02:04:44,400 --> 02:04:46,520 Speaker 1: can be in the right position. So it gets you 2735 02:04:46,640 --> 02:04:49,080 Speaker 1: to move your body into position rather than moving the 2736 02:04:49,160 --> 02:04:51,280 Speaker 1: receiver into a place where you can cover them. And 2737 02:04:51,440 --> 02:04:53,800 Speaker 1: by doing that, putting the oven mits on, they can't 2738 02:04:53,800 --> 02:04:57,000 Speaker 1: grab anything right, So it's just a learning tool. It's 2739 02:04:57,000 --> 02:05:00,920 Speaker 1: like a swing tool in golf. It's like training wheels 2740 02:05:00,960 --> 02:05:05,040 Speaker 1: on a bike. You gotta use, you know, use something 2741 02:05:05,400 --> 02:05:07,760 Speaker 1: to keep you from being able to cheat. And that's 2742 02:05:07,800 --> 02:05:09,720 Speaker 1: what those oven mits do. And it's it's you know, 2743 02:05:09,800 --> 02:05:12,200 Speaker 1: it's an old school way to do it, but you're 2744 02:05:12,240 --> 02:05:15,480 Speaker 1: teaching something physical and real, so you need physical, real 2745 02:05:15,600 --> 02:05:17,120 Speaker 1: tools to help you do that, and that's what those 2746 02:05:17,160 --> 02:05:18,920 Speaker 1: oven mits do. I thought it was pretty funny. Think 2747 02:05:19,080 --> 02:05:22,800 Speaker 1: he's got the big red oven. Yeah, the thumb and 2748 02:05:23,200 --> 02:05:25,320 Speaker 1: bed bath and beyond to grab you know what happen. 2749 02:05:25,320 --> 02:05:28,480 Speaker 1: Do you have fifty two oven mits. It's a thumb 2750 02:05:28,560 --> 02:05:31,440 Speaker 1: in the pad, so you can't use your fingers to grass. Yeah, 2751 02:05:31,440 --> 02:05:35,680 Speaker 1: you can't grab. So good idea, good technique, really good idea. Um. 2752 02:05:36,000 --> 02:05:37,920 Speaker 1: Maybe the play of the day, and it happened in 2753 02:05:38,200 --> 02:05:40,120 Speaker 1: early parts of the team were early portion of the 2754 02:05:40,120 --> 02:05:42,560 Speaker 1: team work. Matt Barkley quarterback, passed over the middle of 2755 02:05:42,680 --> 02:05:45,680 Speaker 1: Ray Ray McCloud and Dredavious White came out of nowhere 2756 02:05:46,000 --> 02:05:47,680 Speaker 1: to break that up. Remember that play. I thought it 2757 02:05:47,720 --> 02:05:49,520 Speaker 1: was one of the great plays of the day. I'm 2758 02:05:49,520 --> 02:05:51,280 Speaker 1: just going through my notes. I'm almost done here, Steve, 2759 02:05:51,320 --> 02:05:54,120 Speaker 1: I know you got stuff. Oh, Dean Marlow with an 2760 02:05:54,160 --> 02:05:56,400 Speaker 1: interception to tip pass from Josh Allen. Dean Marlow came 2761 02:05:56,480 --> 02:05:58,120 Speaker 1: up with that a couple of passage defense. It was 2762 02:05:58,200 --> 02:06:00,680 Speaker 1: really good and and it's one of the days where 2763 02:06:00,880 --> 02:06:05,400 Speaker 1: the DBS have a little bit of the advantage because 2764 02:06:05,680 --> 02:06:09,880 Speaker 1: they're they're running blitz pickups right, So the thought is 2765 02:06:11,160 --> 02:06:13,200 Speaker 1: whether the offense knows it or not. One thing, you 2766 02:06:13,280 --> 02:06:16,480 Speaker 1: do know, the ball's coming out quick. So the dbs 2767 02:06:16,480 --> 02:06:19,040 Speaker 1: are not in backpedal mode. They are in sit tight 2768 02:06:19,200 --> 02:06:22,280 Speaker 1: mode and squat down mode and jumping route mode, and 2769 02:06:22,440 --> 02:06:24,280 Speaker 1: that's what you know, it's kind of fun. I think 2770 02:06:24,280 --> 02:06:26,240 Speaker 1: if you're a dB to be out there, know that 2771 02:06:26,480 --> 02:06:27,840 Speaker 1: the ball is going to come out and in a 2772 02:06:27,920 --> 02:06:30,680 Speaker 1: certain sort of clock in your mind, and you can 2773 02:06:30,800 --> 02:06:32,280 Speaker 1: jump in on a route. When a guy puts his 2774 02:06:32,320 --> 02:06:34,000 Speaker 1: foot in the ground, you know it's a real thing 2775 02:06:34,040 --> 02:06:36,280 Speaker 1: because the ball's got to come out. So these guys 2776 02:06:36,320 --> 02:06:38,640 Speaker 1: are jumping rounde So it's the dbs. I think we're 2777 02:06:38,680 --> 02:06:40,720 Speaker 1: having a lot of fun today jumping routes out of 2778 02:06:40,760 --> 02:06:44,280 Speaker 1: the blitz pickups and the and the pressure packages that 2779 02:06:44,360 --> 02:06:46,080 Speaker 1: they were showing. One more thing, I on, Man, it's 2780 02:06:46,120 --> 02:06:48,280 Speaker 1: not all good. There are mistakes and one thing, and 2781 02:06:48,360 --> 02:06:51,600 Speaker 1: it's only two days in. But I guess I'm surprised, 2782 02:06:51,640 --> 02:06:54,800 Speaker 1: And yeah, I'm surprised, that's all. I'll say that we 2783 02:06:54,840 --> 02:06:57,919 Speaker 1: haven't seen more from Robert Foster. He hasn't been invisible, 2784 02:06:57,960 --> 02:06:59,720 Speaker 1: but he hasn't been much more than invisible. Right, He 2785 02:06:59,800 --> 02:07:02,800 Speaker 1: isn't ha had much opportunity. Yeah, the ball from him, 2786 02:07:02,840 --> 02:07:05,480 Speaker 1: that's the ball has not been traveling his way. Um 2787 02:07:06,120 --> 02:07:08,320 Speaker 1: And as you say that, I don't think I've seen 2788 02:07:08,440 --> 02:07:11,040 Speaker 1: him catch a ball in this period. I don't know 2789 02:07:11,240 --> 02:07:13,880 Speaker 1: what well, I was facing he's not running with the ones. 2790 02:07:14,720 --> 02:07:18,480 Speaker 1: Um you know that's John Brown, Cole Beasley, z A. Jones. 2791 02:07:19,480 --> 02:07:21,120 Speaker 1: I'm looking at my notech he caught a zip pass 2792 02:07:21,200 --> 02:07:24,680 Speaker 1: over the middle from from Josh Allen. He wasn't even open, 2793 02:07:24,760 --> 02:07:26,400 Speaker 1: by the way, and Josh just fired it through some 2794 02:07:27,080 --> 02:07:30,240 Speaker 1: a tight window. A quick decision by Josh and Robert 2795 02:07:30,320 --> 02:07:31,960 Speaker 1: Foster caught that. But I saw another play and I 2796 02:07:32,040 --> 02:07:34,840 Speaker 1: had it in my notes here where Foster couldn't get 2797 02:07:34,920 --> 02:07:36,840 Speaker 1: lined up right and then moving them around. I was saying, 2798 02:07:36,880 --> 02:07:40,160 Speaker 1: come on, man, get lined up. Let's go last year, right, 2799 02:07:42,800 --> 02:07:44,720 Speaker 1: you know, And I everybody sees the same way. Had 2800 02:07:44,800 --> 02:07:46,440 Speaker 1: you know Thad Brown, who was just on a minute ago, 2801 02:07:46,520 --> 02:07:49,040 Speaker 1: He's like, listen, they it didn't look good, and you 2802 02:07:49,160 --> 02:07:50,880 Speaker 1: and I were sitting here watching the same thing around, 2803 02:07:50,920 --> 02:07:52,720 Speaker 1: like wow, there was a big stretch of practice. We're 2804 02:07:52,720 --> 02:07:55,600 Speaker 1: it looked really good for Josh. Uh And I told it. 2805 02:07:55,680 --> 02:07:57,040 Speaker 1: I said it earlier on the show. There were some 2806 02:07:57,120 --> 02:08:00,720 Speaker 1: wild throws that he made in there, and I maybe 2807 02:08:00,760 --> 02:08:03,040 Speaker 1: it's just me as a player that I don't see 2808 02:08:03,120 --> 02:08:08,160 Speaker 1: the inaccuracies that everybody else does. There's certainly some throws 2809 02:08:08,200 --> 02:08:10,000 Speaker 1: where he could put it on that one shoulder rather 2810 02:08:10,040 --> 02:08:13,120 Speaker 1: than the other. And I and you're I think he 2811 02:08:13,280 --> 02:08:15,080 Speaker 1: is right about one thing. He said that the Cole 2812 02:08:15,160 --> 02:08:18,840 Speaker 1: Beasley combination to Josh Allen has not really flourished, and 2813 02:08:19,000 --> 02:08:21,160 Speaker 1: as of yet, I think he's exactly right. Those two 2814 02:08:21,200 --> 02:08:24,240 Speaker 1: have not. I saw him throw it and catch it 2815 02:08:24,320 --> 02:08:26,400 Speaker 1: a couple of times during team today, the two of them, 2816 02:08:26,920 --> 02:08:29,800 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley Josh Allen a couple of times, but yesterday 2817 02:08:29,800 --> 02:08:33,080 Speaker 1: I don't remember seeing him at all. Hook up that's 2818 02:08:33,120 --> 02:08:34,720 Speaker 1: gonna that seems to be going to take some time. 2819 02:08:34,760 --> 02:08:37,040 Speaker 1: But I think that was an accurate assessment by that. 2820 02:08:37,240 --> 02:08:39,280 Speaker 1: I think he's right. I don't think Cole Beasley just 2821 02:08:39,360 --> 02:08:41,320 Speaker 1: came in and all of a sudden, Josh Allen is 2822 02:08:41,360 --> 02:08:43,360 Speaker 1: throwing him the football nine out of ten times and 2823 02:08:43,720 --> 02:08:46,400 Speaker 1: completing him. A couple of tweets from the tweet sheet 2824 02:08:46,440 --> 02:08:49,920 Speaker 1: brought here by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official movers of 2825 02:08:49,960 --> 02:08:53,000 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills, to answer our question about Josh Allen. 2826 02:08:53,040 --> 02:08:54,400 Speaker 1: What are you kind of hoping for? What are you 2827 02:08:54,520 --> 02:08:58,440 Speaker 1: looking for from Josh Allen as as the season goes along? 2828 02:08:58,480 --> 02:09:00,400 Speaker 1: This is the biggest difference you're looking for from Josh 2829 02:09:00,480 --> 02:09:03,680 Speaker 1: Allen from year one to year two. From Mike, he said, 2830 02:09:03,720 --> 02:09:07,120 Speaker 1: I believe his decision making inaccuracy will be much improved 2831 02:09:07,160 --> 02:09:10,400 Speaker 1: in year two. The sorry watch out the old line 2832 02:09:10,400 --> 02:09:13,000 Speaker 1: will play a big part in this, obviously, and team 2833 02:09:13,040 --> 02:09:16,680 Speaker 1: Max tweets us and throwing with anticipation and overall having 2834 02:09:16,720 --> 02:09:19,480 Speaker 1: a better arsenal weapons he can rely on so he 2835 02:09:19,560 --> 02:09:21,720 Speaker 1: can take that next step as a quarterback. I do 2836 02:09:21,840 --> 02:09:25,320 Speaker 1: see more anticipation throws from Josh two practices in what 2837 02:09:25,400 --> 02:09:28,440 Speaker 1: about you, Yeah, he looks better. I mean he looks 2838 02:09:29,120 --> 02:09:31,960 Speaker 1: like he's throwing you know. You remember yet last year 2839 02:09:32,000 --> 02:09:34,160 Speaker 1: all it seemed like he dropped back and either tuck 2840 02:09:34,200 --> 02:09:36,000 Speaker 1: it and run it or chuck it down way down 2841 02:09:36,040 --> 02:09:39,600 Speaker 1: the field, you know. And one the only short passes 2842 02:09:39,640 --> 02:09:41,200 Speaker 1: he threw were when they were dumping it off on 2843 02:09:41,280 --> 02:09:44,320 Speaker 1: a screen pass or something called like that. Now I 2844 02:09:44,400 --> 02:09:46,680 Speaker 1: see him throwing it. I see him throwing it to 2845 02:09:46,760 --> 02:09:49,320 Speaker 1: the back quick on a blitz thing like he described 2846 02:09:49,320 --> 02:09:51,640 Speaker 1: to us today. I see him throwing it intermediate routes 2847 02:09:51,640 --> 02:09:53,200 Speaker 1: and I see him throwing it. I see him making 2848 02:09:53,320 --> 02:09:57,640 Speaker 1: all the throws and on time in the right way 2849 02:09:57,720 --> 02:10:00,040 Speaker 1: to the right guy. Obviously, we saw him thread the 2850 02:10:00,120 --> 02:10:04,880 Speaker 1: needle a couple of times today. Um, it's not perfect. No, no, 2851 02:10:05,080 --> 02:10:07,720 Speaker 1: not perfect at all. But and for me as as 2852 02:10:07,760 --> 02:10:09,760 Speaker 1: a former player, I always tend to when when the 2853 02:10:09,800 --> 02:10:12,840 Speaker 1: plat pass doesn't get completed or whatever, the defense is there. 2854 02:10:12,920 --> 02:10:15,000 Speaker 1: I mean, they're not they're not laying down for this 2855 02:10:15,120 --> 02:10:17,120 Speaker 1: guy and they're and at this point in camp they're not. 2856 02:10:17,360 --> 02:10:20,960 Speaker 1: It's not like Josh Allen playing against rookie free agents. 2857 02:10:21,040 --> 02:10:23,640 Speaker 1: It's ones and ones. Yeah, you know, they're they're practicing 2858 02:10:23,680 --> 02:10:25,840 Speaker 1: against each other. So he's proact. He's trying to fit 2859 02:10:25,880 --> 02:10:28,760 Speaker 1: it in there to you know, with Tradavious White or 2860 02:10:29,080 --> 02:10:32,000 Speaker 1: Kevin Johnson, you know, covering the guy.
