Speaker 1: with My best friend Mike Harmon. Thursday Night football goes

11
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: to the Texans. They beat the Bills twenty three to nineteen.

12
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: They sat Josh Allen thirty seven times, thirty seven in

13
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: a row. They're back in the playoff chase. What now

14
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: for the Bills? Joining us now in the hotline to

15
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: break it all down? Nobody better the NFL? On Fox

16
00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: Insider Extraordinaire Jay Glazer, Jay, Happy Thursday, Man, How you doing? Man?

17
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 3: How do you guys doing?

18
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,680
Speaker 1: Tell boy, we're doing better than Josh Allen. Every time

19
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: he took the step, until like he took two steps

20
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: and it was running for his life.

21
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,759
Speaker 4: Jay, So let me tell.

22
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:15,639
Speaker 3: You how feared the Texan front is it's how feared

23
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 3: they are. A couple of weeks ago, Broncos are going

24
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 3: to face the Texans, and Sean Payton's like, man, we

25
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 3: gotta do something. They literally signed Mercedes Lewis, who is

26
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 3: probably the best blocking tight end of all time, specifically

27
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 3: to come out of retirement for that game, just like, Hey,

28
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 3: if this guy can help us on ten plays, we're

29
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 3: gonna take it because Percedes a gangster and we need

30
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 3: somebody who's not afraid of Daniel Hunter, Will Anderson. And

31
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 3: but like, man, they their front is that dangerous. I

32
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 3: know the offense can't do much right now, but they

33
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 3: are so feared and what they can do in that

34
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 3: defensive side of the ball. They're the teams. So every

35
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 3: year there's somebody that kind of starts stepping up in

36
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 3: week eleven, week twelve, and you're like, man, I just

37
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 3: don't want to see on my schedule, and it's them.

38
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 3: And they've been like this because they're you know, because

39
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 3: their defense, but man, their defense like wet week after

40
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 3: week after week of people trying to figure out how

41
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 3: can we slow them down and they can't.

42
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 1: You know, we talk about resiliency in teams, Jay and

43
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 1: teams that you know, quit as the season goes on.

44
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,679
Speaker 1: And this is a Texans team zero to three. No,

45
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon, j Stroud is hurt. They could have easily

46
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: packed it in so many times this year and instead

47
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: here they are in the thick of the playoff chase.

48
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: It really is, It really is.

49
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they're not. They're not going to pack it

50
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,079
Speaker 3: ings what they got in the defense front of the ball.

51
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 3: And Tobigo Ryans Yes, Like man, the job he's done

52
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 3: as a coordinator this year, and I it really is

53
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 3: amazing when you look back at like Kyle Channon's coordinators.

54
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 3: Look what obviously you know his stormy coordinators do is

55
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,119
Speaker 3: the former head coach of Jets, right, Robert Sala. Look

56
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 3: what Dimiko has done. Like man, there's just kind of

57
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 3: a culture of this, this chaos that those two guys

58
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 3: calls on that side of the ball, that doesn't really

59
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 3: you know, look at San Franz. They've been so beat up,

60
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 3: but there's this chaos over there. Demiko has a two.

61
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 3: And No, I don't think this is the type of

62
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 3: team that's going to pack it in because I think

63
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 3: they you know, sharpen their weapons every week. But you know, again,

64
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 3: I just want to go back to what I said, Like, guys,

65
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 3: the Broncos signed.

66
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 5: Someone like Norman has an unbelievable blacker, like, we need

67
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 5: any help we can get and they're like, hey, you're

68
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 5: forty one years old.

69
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 3: We don't care. You're not afraid of it. Guy, you

70
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 3: and see if you can help us, and he did.

71
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: It's funny, one of my favorite players going. So when

72
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: that news started flowing, Jay I was like, yeah, because

73
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: as long as these guys keep playing, I don't feel

74
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: so damn old.

75
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 3: Well, so let me tell you what happened to Like

76
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 3: that week, Sean Payton calls and he's like, hey, we're

77
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 3: looking for a blocking tight end and I'm like, oh,

78
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 3: that's right, you get the Texans. I was like, hey, no,

79
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 3: he goes, we're looking for a tight end. I go

80
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 3: blocking and receiving goes blocking. I go, oh, look no further,

81
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 3: because what do you mean? Asked, like, I got your guy,

82
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 3: Mercedes Lewis and he's like what's he doing? I said, dude,

83
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 3: he's working like four times a day, like big don't

84
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 3: because a gangster. We're like, what do you do? Right?

85
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 3: I said?

86
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 5: Legally?

87
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 3: I told him like three days ago he is underlooks

88
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 3: in great shape, but like Mercedes, the type of player

89
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 3: that he'll fight you before you'll fight him. He's just

90
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 3: he's that guy. So Sean's like, well that's what I'm

91
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 3: looking for. I said, you got the Texans. He goes, yeah,

92
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 3: we got the texts. Oh yeah, it makes sense you

93
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 3: have the Texans. Like what could somebody do to slow

94
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 3: those cats down? And like I said, like you know

95
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 3: what you're facing, but nobody could slow them down. They

96
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 3: are a violent, violent, violent defense. If they just can

97
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 3: just get a spark on the other side of the ball,

98
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 3: that is not a team that I'd want to say

99
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 3: is done a playoffs stretch.

100
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 1: Well, Jay, with them winning that game, I think you

101
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 1: should get a Super Bowl ring if the Broncos win

102
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 1: it all this year, like you won that game for them.

103
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 3: No, I just want Mercedes to pay a bill once.

104
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: There you go. Yeah, we always keep track of all right,

105
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 1: who's picking up a tab this week? All right, so

106
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: let's go to the other side of things. Sean McDermott

107
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 1: trying to keep this Bill's squad. They had a big

108
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 1: win against Tampa and come back tonight. He's under duress.

109
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: You take some of the opponent, but overall and uneven

110
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,039
Speaker 1: run for the Bills.

111
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it really has been. You know, it's just like

112
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 3: you know, you got kind of look at it, like, man,

113
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 3: do they have the weapons, Like, look, they're young receiver

114
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 3: where they thought was gonna be like a big playmaker,

115
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 3: and he is, but he's not playing by their rules,

116
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 3: you know, and you gotta show hey, this is no

117
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 3: one's bigger than this, right And and Jan Coleman. So

118
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 3: you know, the build up still trying to figure out

119
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 3: because they do have like the horses, but I think

120
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 3: like all their horses on Josh Allen, I mean, like,

121
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 3: look what the Chiefs do. Hey we've got Patrick Mahomes.

122
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 3: But let's go be a great Let's go try and

123
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 3: get this guy and that guy and this guy and

124
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 3: that guy and and I think the Bills, man, I

125
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 3: do still think the Bills as the stretch is gonna

126
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 3: come down here. I do think they're a team that

127
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 3: you're not gonna want to face. I do think they're

128
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 3: a really really good team.

129
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. It's like we were talking to this a few

130
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: minutes ago about how they're the good but not great

131
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: teams and you try to find that.

132
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 3: I think that's a bad matchup. I think it's a

133
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,239
Speaker 3: bad matchup for them, all right.

134
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: Jay Glazer with us here, Jason Smith, Mike Harmon live

135
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: from the Fox Sports Radio studios. You know, we go

136
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,719

00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 3: told like they're into seven on seven and then he's

157
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 3: going to do eleven on eleven. But eleven on eleven

158
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 3: he's feeling great. And I think that the big thing

159
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 3: was like, look, he toured a ligament, a tendon, the plate,

160
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 3: all this, and I think it's just got and and

161
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 3: part of it too, is his his management of pain

162
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 3: is for them most like I think a lot of

163
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 3: people when they deal with this injury is so painful, like,

164
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 3: oh man, I can't do this, I can't do that.

165
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 3: And he's just like it's part of it. It's my

166
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 3: heartor to fight hurt. And I think Joe's just different. Man.

167
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 3: He is a gangster. He is different. So yeah, he's

168
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 3: done on eleven on eleven. This week feels prey. I

169
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 3: just never see anything like it.

170
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's more appropriate now that he wanted one of

171
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: those batmobiles they were making. All right, So jay I,

172
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: you know you work with him in one of your buddies.

173
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: I enjoyed the Smashing Machine. I was a fun theater Romp.

174
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,719
Speaker 1: But is there any better drama than the Eagles.

175
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 6: No?

176
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 3: Never, though it doesn't matter what year there is, it's

177
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 3: always it's trauma, it's it's They're a great reality show.

178
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 3: And you know, it's interesting because A. J. Brown's taking

179
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 3: all the front of this. But it's not to say

180
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 3: j all right, He's just kind of an easy target

181
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 3: because he is is is, you know, his emotions on

182
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 3: a sleeve. And one of the things I love about

183
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 3: it is that's who you want. But here they are

184
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 3: a first place team and it's like the sky is

185
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 3: always falling there and it's it's always like that in Philadelphia,

186
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 3: just how it is, you know. So, but I do

187
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 3: think they man, they've gotta they've got to look last year,

188
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 3: I had a report and I got killed for it.

189
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 3: That man, Jalen Hurts the buy. I actually loved the

190
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 3: said Jalen Hurts the Buy. But Brandon Graham and Big

191
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 3: Dahn went to his house saying, man, you gotta he's

192
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 3: gotta connect with more of your teammates. You gotta connect

193
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,439
Speaker 3: with these guys, and and he did in credit him

194
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,079
Speaker 3: and Brandon said it wasn't true. You know it's true,

195
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 3: and Jalen said it wasn't true. Even though it's true,

196
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 3: and Jalen and I talked about it. I'm like, dude,

197
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 3: this is a good thing. But I talked about it

198
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 3: last year and obviously they came together and they won

199
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 3: a Super Bowl. But it's like it's happening all over again,

200
00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 3: and I think he's gotta connect and uh, it's on

201
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 3: the quarterback to make sure it's together and not just

202
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 3: like watch this happen. It's on the quarterback. You go, Okay,

203
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 3: if there's a disconnect or there's an issue, it's on

204
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 3: me to go. We've got to bring us together. I

205
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 3: gotta do this, and I don't think that's happening there.

206
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: You know, it's kind of apropos j that we have

207
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and the Eagles this week. Did you talk

208
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: about two teams bathing in dysfunction? With the CD Lamb

209
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: story today that he missed curfew, he was out at

210
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: you know, late at night in Vegas and had to

211
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: deny reports he was throwing up outside the casino following

212
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: all of this, Like, man, I'll tell you this, this

213
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: is the dysfunction ball on Sunday between these two teams.

214
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 3: No, but you know. Look, no doubt you know what

215
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 3: CD and George should have known better, especially a week

216
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 3: where you really got to stay together because of what

217
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 3: happened to them. They should have known better.

218
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 1: There does this happen more than we know about Like

219
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: we heard about this obviously they were benched the first

220
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: three place. It became a story.

221
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, Oh my god, yes,

222
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 3: oh my god. There's so many times that guys are

223
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,199
Speaker 3: because you got to remember too, their kids, so they

224
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 3: do stupid tough a lot. The coaches like I'm gonna

225
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 3: make exempt. I remember, there's a great story Jimmy Johnson

226
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 3: bench Michael Irvin. I think he was late for playing

227
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 3: they're playing Detroit, right or he kind of showed up

228
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 3: as they're about to leave, and but like coach, Michael's here,

229
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 3: like no, he's supposed to be in the seat already,

230
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 3: take off leave. So the plane leaves and this is

231
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 3: Jimmy story, and so I hope I don't get it wrong.

232
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 3: But you know, the plane leaves. They might make Michael

233
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 3: fly in, but they're gonna bench him for the start

234
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 3: of the game. And I think they went like three

235
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 3: and out like the first three series and the coaches

236
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 3: come to Jimmy go you think Michael's learner's lesson?

237
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: Yet sounds right, So what happened? Did he go back?

238
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 1: Did he go in the game? Damn right, Jay, I

239
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: gotta imagine. Over the years on that Fox NFL Sunday set,

240
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson regaled you with maybe one hundred stories similar.

241
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 3: Oh my god, man, dude, let me tell you someone.

242
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 3: He retired this year. So he sat next to me

243
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 3: in our great room, right next to me, and I'm like,

244
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 3: this is the longest relationship I've ever been in my life.

245
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 3: He and he know and he retired. I man, I

246
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 3: was attacked. I still am like I lost the guy

247
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 3: sitting next to me for twenty three years. It sucks

248
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 3: that he's not there with me. Like it. We're we

249
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 3: love him, we love him, we love him, we love him.

250
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 3: But yeah, no, I went to the morning period. I

251
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 3: still think I am down for you.

252
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 1: He's on Twitter at Jay Glazer. That's at Jay Glazer.

253
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: Jay as always, buddy, appreciate the stuff, appreciate the stories.

254
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: That My story was fantastic. Man, Love you, mad Thanks

255
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 1: thanks for being with us. Hey, have a great Thanksgiving.

256
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you soon. Appreciate you, buddy, pig goes

257
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: Jay Lazer, You think I just learned his lesson? Gotta

258
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 1: get him back in a Hey, hey, we just went

259
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 1: three and out. Get in there three and out three

260
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 1: times in a row. Let's get Michael back in the game,

261
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,719
Speaker 1: will you? All right, let's do that. Let's Shotenheimer only

262
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: went through it once. As I get it, as he

263
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: learned is let's listen. Okay, so maybe three play? What

264
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: are you thinking? Oh yeah, first quarter into the second

265
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: quarter are three plays? All right, guys, go all right,

266
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: go go. It's the thing about that, it's the Raiders go.

267
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,599
Speaker 1: As he thinks about Jimmy Johnson, We'll make sure we

268
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 1: get a note down to Jimmy as well to say hey,

269
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: because it's been a minute since we've had a chance

270
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: to talk to him. But it's just that that idea

271
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: for all those years, think about that block of those

272
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: Cowboys teams. He could probably write fifteen books based on

273
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: what the hell he had to navigate and try to

274
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: keep out of the press. A little easier then for

275
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 1: social media. But the characters on that squad, the trickling

276
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: out of stories through the years, I don't even think

277
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: We've scratched the surface if I'm guessing right, not even close,

278
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: not even close. Uh, Jay Glaser, you can get the

00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: lip reading Josh Allen during their loss to the Texans.

298
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 6: never have enough time to get to everything we want

299
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 6: to get.

300
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 4: To, and that's why we have a brand new podcast

301
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 4: called over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun

302
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 4: in our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,

303
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 4: because this guy is over promising things we never have

304
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 4: time for. Yeah, you blubber list jam in me.

305
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 6: Well you know what it's called over promise. You should

306
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 6: be good at it because you've been over promising women

307

323
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio Jason Smith's show with my best friend

324
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 1: Mike harmon the Bills fall to the Texans twenty three

325
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 1: to nineteen, and man, I'll tell you what. We have

326
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: some A plus lip reading coming your way in a

327
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: couple of minutes when it comes to Bills quarterback Josh

328
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: Allen what it means for the rest of the season.

329
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: But twenty three nineteen was the code in Pixar when

330
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 1: they went Nuts and Monsters inc. Right, wasn't that when

331
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 1: saw Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I think so. Twenty three idea

332
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: Mike Wazowski. But first let's hear from Allen, who followed

333
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: up his six touchdown day on Sunday with a zero

334
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: touchdown day today and a grand total of five fantasy

335
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: points unless you're in a league where a sacks count,

336
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: and then it was just one fantasy point. Not good. Yeah,

337
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: twenty three nineteen. He would have been yelling that a

338
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: lot because that means human contact. Boy, but he sure

339
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 1: as hell got a lot of it on Thursday night.

340
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 1: So let's hear from Josh Allen on Bill's quarterback and

341
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: then we'll get to the big liberating from tonight This

342
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 1: is where I want to hear Josh Allen talk, tell Alan,

343
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 1: tell it.

344
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 7: They wanted it today, you know, And yeah, I mean

345
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 7: we had a chance to win it there at the

346
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 7: end and got to find a way the final play,

347
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 7: final play, you know, looking looking like a man just

348
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 7: dropping back and just trying trying to get it to

349
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:34,119
Speaker 7: one of our open guys.

350
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:35,439
Speaker 3: You know.

351
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 8: Yeah, on the fourth down play it appeared on the

352
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 8: sidelines on the TV broadcasts that you might have been saying,

353
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 8: what are we doing on that play? Were you was

354
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,159
Speaker 8: there some miscommunication or were you just not happy with the

355
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 8: play or I mean.

356
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:56,199
Speaker 7: Just frustration on my part, you know, just yeah, in

357
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 7: a situation like that, probably should just bang the time out,

358
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 7: just getting getting and we got to play in late,

359
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 7: you know, and didn't give ourselves a chance there.

360
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: How difficult is it to deal with that pass rush

361
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: obviously taking all those hits.

362
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,640
Speaker 3: Can you even put into words.

363
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 2: How it did just to get through a game like that?

364
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 3: Most sacks of your career, Yeah, it's not fun.

365
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 7: I ran into a couple myself. I gotta be better

366
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 7: throwing the ball away and living to see another down

367
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:30,199
Speaker 7: and letting us play some situational football and pinning them

368
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 7: deep and too many times I was going backwards and

369
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 7: I gotta be better on that.

370
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: So some great stuff there from Josh Allen in which

371
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 1: he addresses, yeah, I ran myself into some sacks, because

372
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 1: yes he did, just trying to make something happen. He

373
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 1: held onto the ball way too long. Throw the ball

374
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: away instead of throwing it away and living to fight

375
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: another down. Instead of third and seven, it's now it's

376
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 1: third and eighteen, which were a lot of plays for

377
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: the Bills tonight. And you're not making third and eight

378
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:57,920
Speaker 1: to get you get one fourth and twenty seven play

379
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 1: which the Bills got late. Yeah, you don't have a

380
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: lot of those in playbook. What have we got longer

381
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,360
Speaker 1: than fifteen yards? But here's the big takeaway from this

382
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 1: for tonight. You heard the question Josh Allen was referred

383
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: to a question to him from the reporter during the

384
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 1: game after another bad Bills drive, which are a lot

385
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 1: of them tonight. There's video of Josh Allen slamming his

386
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,919
Speaker 1: helmet down, sitting on the bench, turning to back up

387
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 1: Mitchell Trubisky and saying, what the blank are we doing? Like,

388
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: what are we doing? My guy? Your guy MITCHI my guy,

389
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: and I'm sure Mitch just said I yeah, I should

390
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 1: be out there. What are we doing?

391
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:32,120
Speaker 3: Man?

392
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 1: You sit on the bench? You stink tonight? You know why?

393
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: I mean? I adopt the Bills because they've got my

394
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: two favorite guys. You stink, you're oh, Josh, is only

395
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,719
Speaker 1: one problem tonight in the game? What's that? Only one? Poets?

396
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: You stink? That's the problem. I'm going in all right. Here,

397
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,120
Speaker 1: take my baseball cap. I'm going in the game.

398
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 5: Uh.

399
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: This is Josh Allen saying what are we doing? This

400
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: is a microcosm of where the Bills are this season

401
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 1: and forward in the NFL. The Bills have not gotten

402
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 1: better in the last few years. They've not gotten markedly worse.

403
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 1: They have tried to reinvent themselves, getting away from the

404
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs error with Josh Allen into the James Cook

405
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: era with Josh Allen. They have tried to continually remake

406
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: their wide receiving corps. They thought, hey, we drafted Dalton

407
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,120
Speaker 1: kin Cake three years ago, He's gonna be the next

408
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey. Guess what, probably not gonna happen, all right.

409
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: Also having a tough time staying healthy missed another game tonight,

410
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 1: we can draft numbers at wide receiver and really be

411
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,200
Speaker 1: better and more consistent. Not the case. Kean Coleman bench

412
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 1: tonight again. Guy you took in the first round. His

413
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: future with the team has probably done at this point,

414
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 1: and you get bench twice. Their offense has not gained.

415
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: It is not really slid backwards. They've kind of been

416
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: the same. The Bills have sort of meandered the last

417
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: three years as a team where, boy, we're really good.

418
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 1: Do we want to make big changes to get over

419
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 1: the hump and get to the top and get to

420
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 1: the super Bowl, Or do we think we're on the

421
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 1: path to get there and we panic if we try

422
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 1: to do a little bit too much and reinvent the team. Right,

423
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: That's kind of where I felt the Bills have been

424
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: over the last couple of years. Hey, we're right there, right,

425
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,479
Speaker 1: let's not go crazy because we are right there and

426
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: we have the quarterback, so let's not go nuts and

427
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: yours it's well, if we don't have the quarterback, we

428
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,640
Speaker 1: rebuild around the quarterback and bring somebody else in. That's

429
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: normally how it's done. But the Bills felt, hey, we're good.

430
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:34,120
Speaker 1: Our defense is good enough. The division is bad enough

431
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 1: for us to continue to run for a while. But

432
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: when you go two three years and you're still kind

433
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: of the same team, other teams are gonna get better,

434
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: they're gonna pas you, they're gonna get younger, they're gonna

435
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: get more physical, they're gonna be more athletic. And right

436
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 1: now they're looking up. They're not gonna win the AFC East.

437
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: Their path to the playoffs now is through the wildcard

438
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,439
Speaker 1: because the Patriots with their easy ass schedule, and the

439
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 1: Patriots haven't proved, not saying they haven't, but when you

440
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: play that schedule, Yeah, being nine and two, okay, you're

441
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,160
Speaker 1: looking at a you're looking at a three game lead

442
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:05,920
Speaker 1: with three games to go. You know, three four games

443
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 1: to go is kind of probably where they're gonna be

444
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 1: at now. Could it be different this week if Joe

445
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: Burrow comes back and the and the Bengals pull a surprise,

446
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: But if not Joe Burrow, you're looking at that kind

447
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 1: of lead the Bills have just kind of maintained and

448
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 1: at some point you have to make the big decision

449
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: and and sit back and get everybody in the room

450
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: and say what do we need? What are we missing

451
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 1: and being more aggressive at receiver. Yeah, that's an easy

452
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,679
Speaker 1: thing to say. But the guy that's gonna wind up

453
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: paying for this if this season doesn't end well is

454
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott. Right, because McDermott's been the one constant other

455
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,679
Speaker 1: than Josh Allen the last few years. They have not

456
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 1: gotten the super Bowl. They have they have not gotten

457
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,719
Speaker 1: to a point where you feel like they're even closer

458
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,159
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl than they were a couple of

459
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: years ago. Now, obviously, being this good in the era

460
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 1: of the Chiefs, that's a tough thing, right, it's a

461
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 1: tough thing, but you know what, it was tough the

462
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 1: air of the Patriots for twenty years making to the

463
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 1: super Bowl. But you are a team that is that good,

464
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 1: and this should be your year because the rest of

465
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: the AFC is wide open. This should be a year

466
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 1: where the Buffalo Bill's all right, you know, this is

467
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,199
Speaker 1: our year to get there. Maybe it's not gonna be

468
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: more than one, but this is our year to get there. Right,

469
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 1: Like if Lamar Jackson got to one super Bowl, that

470
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 1: would be an achievement, Right, if Josh Allen gets to

471
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: one super Bowl, that would be an achievement. This is

472
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,439
Speaker 1: the year for the Bills because the rest of the

473
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: AFC is open, but they're not even close. And if

474
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: this season ends with them taking a downtick and especially

475
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:32,719
Speaker 1: getting in as a wild card and having to win

476
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: their way on the road and they don't get there,

477
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: what's going to change. We need a change at the top.

478
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: And the whispers for Sean McDermott are gonna get louder

479
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 1: and louder, because suddenly it's gonna go from man, what

480
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: can Sean McDermott do to a little bit of man

481
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott can't win the big games, to man, Sean

482
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 1: McDermott can't even get us back to the big games.

483
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,959
Speaker 1: That's a big decline for the legend of McDermott and

484
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 1: what the Bills need because they're gonna need some kind

485
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,239
Speaker 1: of change. And are you gonna convince everybody that this

486
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,440
Speaker 1: is what's happening? When Josh Allen sits here and says,

487
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: what are we doing offensively? This is not what are

488
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: we doing player wise, This is not what are we

489
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: doing with James Cook, This is not what are we

490
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 1: doing at tight end? This is what are we doing offensively? Which, yeah,

491
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 1: that's a Joe Brady thing, but it's much more a

492
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott thing. If this season goes south with the Bills,

493
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a new head coach there next year

494
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: for the back half of Josh Allen's career. But that's it.

495
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: At some point you got to stop running into the ceiling, right,

496
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 1: which is lowered, because now the pressure mounts time and again.

497
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 1: As you say, the division has been there, you have

498
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 1: two teams that haven't been able to get out of

499
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 1: their way. Obviously your Jets, sorry Buddy four plays in

500
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: a flag and then whatever they've been running out this

501
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 1: year and going forward. You look at the Patriots, it's

502
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 1: all right with the world with Rabel Drake may taking

503
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 1: advantage of a schedule. Look, you can only play who's

504
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 1: on it, and they've got an easy run the rest

505
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,679
Speaker 1: of the way, so you're not catching them. And then

506
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 1: the Dolphins are just good. No, as we saw two

507
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 1: weeks ago against these Bills that they're They're dysfunctional, but

508
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: still dangerous on occasion, especially when you got a speedster're

509
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 1: like eh Chan and you can't stop the run, which

510
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 1: is really what's become an issue here. They were fortunate

511
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: I guess that Woody Marx and Nick Chubb don't surmount

512
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,479
Speaker 1: much of an attack there, and Davis Mills sure as

513
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: hell isn't running anywhere, but he did enough in the

514
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:28,199
Speaker 1: passing game, finding spots, missed some throws early, but it

515
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 1: was enough to take him down here. That for McDermott,

516
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: you've at least got to be dominant defensively turnovers you're

517
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 1: for the year, and that Allen's not, you know, infallible,

518
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 1: certainly had a bad night tonight, but you're looking at

519
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: a minus two turnover differential. You're tied for tenth with

520
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 1: about five other teams in terms of how many turnovers

521
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,479
Speaker 1: you've generated this year at thirteen. So you're not you know,

522
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: being opportunistic. You're not getting a consistent, persistent pass rush

523
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: and supporting. And then we look on the offensive side.

524
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 1: You got just a bunch of guys. I like Khalil Shakir,

525
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,120
Speaker 1: he's a two or three on any other team, right

526
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: and he had a couple of big runs after the catch,

527
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,400
Speaker 1: the hook and lateral play. That's fine, but you don't

528
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 1: have a guy that can go get it when you

529
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 1: need to know and to think about it, think about

530
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,640
Speaker 1: how great the offense was that they could score any

531
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: time anywhere on the field when it was Josh Allen

532
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 1: Stefon Diggs, but a guy you have to shade a

533
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 1: safety over and take him out of coverage. Here they

534
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 1: surmounted an awful lot of pressure without having to bring

535
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 1: extra men, which allowed the Texans to stay back and coverage,

536
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 1: so the windows were that much tighter. And for Alan,

537
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: the margin of error is not there, like he's got

538
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,160
Speaker 1: to be Superman. And we've watched it all season long,

539
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,160
Speaker 1: you know, the numbers coming into tonight looked very early

540
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,719
Speaker 1: similar to last year. His completion percentage is actually up

541
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 1: in a bunch of metrics QBR and all that it's

542
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: actually higher than it was a year ago in his

543
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 1: MVP year. But it doesn't matter because outside of jam

544
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: and Cook, who they forgot about at halftime right had

545
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: his seventy five yards, it is you with a nice total,

546
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: but if you watch second half, it's like, is he hurt?

547
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 1: Where is he? Where the ball? I mean, you gotta

548
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 1: do something to back this pass rush off, even if

549
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: it's just a soft toss to the outside to get

550
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: it spread things out, which they never did. And and

551
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: for the McDermott part of this. It's not that McDermott

552
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: suddenly is a bad coach. It's not that McDermott suddenly

553
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,919
Speaker 1: doesn't know what he's doing. It's that sometimes, look the

554
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,399
Speaker 1: voice in a team, sometimes you just wind up tuning

555
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 1: it out. And when you have offensive difficulties like this,

556
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 1: you wonder how much of a tune out there is,

557
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: how much of a buy in there still is, because

558
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,199
Speaker 1: we've tried it this way for a while, and not

559
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 1: only is it not getting better, but it might be

560
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 1: getting a tiny bit worse. And that's that's just a

561
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: general rule of what happens in the NFL. Look, if

562
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott winds up getting fired, he'll get he'll get

563
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 1: a new gig at a new team right away. Like

564
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 1: he'll be one of those fired on a Tuesday, high

565
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: on a Thursday, and it's gonna be Solomon Grundy born

566
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: on a Monday, the christened on a Tuesday, Solomon Grundy.

567
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 1: Yeah no, but the friends from the accountant that he

568
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,719
Speaker 1: would ha been half I would. So I'm born on

569
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 1: a Monday, christened on a Tuesday, married on a Wednesday,

570
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: sick on Thursday, worse on Friday, died on Saturday, buried

571
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Right, I think that was Solomon Grunt thing

572
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: with the guy in the place Tuesday, married on a Wednesday,

573
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: took ill on Thursday, grew worse on Friday, died on Saturday,

574
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 1: buried on Sunday. That was the end of Solomon Grund.

575
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 1: There we go, that's it, so it's gonna Then he

576
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: came back to haunt the super Friends and as part

577
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,719
Speaker 1: of the Legion of Doom. He was one of the

578
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,959
Speaker 1: worst villains in the Yeah he was so bad. Uh,

579
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: but like he because Sean mcdermot's a good coach, but

580
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: sometimes the message gets a little stale and you just

581
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: need something else, and the Bills are gonna say, because

582
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: the Bills have to ask themselves. Okay, we've seen the

583
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 1: first half ish little more than half of Josh Allen's career.

584
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: Being a bigger qu voorback that runs a little more physical,

585
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: his prime is going to be a little bit less, potentially,

586
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: because if he was just a drop back pass or

587
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 1: you would say, okay, he could play like Roethlisberger, who

588
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 1: played really well into his into his late thirties. Then

589
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: the last couple of years were kind of rough, But

590
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 1: because Allen is a physical guy and he runs the ball.

591
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 1: His prime is going to be a little bit less.

592
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 1: So the Bills have to say, are we sure that

593
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: we can go further with Sean McDermott or do we

594
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,200
Speaker 1: need a new voice, a new a new way of

595
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: doing things, a new attack plan for the back half

596
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: of Josh Allen's career. And that's just the way it goes.

597
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: And what do we always ask though, I mean, we've

598
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 1: been doing this a while together. Is he an A

599
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 1: to B guy instead of a B two cyah? If

600
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 1: they didn't get so fun, if they wouldn't make the

601
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 1: AFC title game a couple of times and have plays

602
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 1: taken away from them by officials. But again different, but

603
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 1: you're still not getting over. But you're not getting back there.

604
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 1: You're not getting back there there. So it becomes the

605
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 1: all right, how do we maximize what's left of Allen?

606
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 1: You got to go back into the drawing board at

607
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 1: the at the GM and scouting side as well, because

608
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 1: he didn't have he didn't have weapons.

609
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 3: Right.

610
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 1: I like Dalton kN Kate as much as the next guy.

611
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 1: He's not a number one wide receiver, right, This isn't

612
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: Kelsey in his prime as much as you may be

613
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: trying to make him that or Tony Gonzalez or pick

614
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 1: insert your favorite tight end, Antonio Gates fighting Keenan Allen,

615
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: but you know, you get my point, Like, they don't

616
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 1: have that guy on the roster. Yeah, and so it

617
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: becomes the all right, what can Josh Allen do to

618
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: put you over? And you're not getting the big play,

619
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 1: the big takeaway by the defense to put him in

620
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: short short field positions. Right, you got the return from

621
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 1: Ray Davis. Happy birthday by the way, Yeah, second most

624
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 1: I mean, he gave you the kickoff return, but other

625
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 1: than that, like he's an afterthought, was once upon a

626
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: time part of your offense. But he's not gonna be

627
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: the big explosive difference maker. No, you got you gotta

628
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: look at the and we can figure this whole thing

629
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,120

633
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 1: next year. How much of Joe Brady, potentially as a

634
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 1: college coach or pro coach, is distracting everybody eight seven

635
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 1: seven or you know, maybe Joe Brady gets promotion about this,

636
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: or maybe Lincoln Riley goes to coach the Bills. See,

637

00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 10: is that you know, you guys are just talking about

659
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 10: Houston and the Bills. Houston has won three in a

660
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 10: row with Davis Mills in that quarterback.

665
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 10: a backup quarterback.

666
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 11: I mean, in my current situation, I don't think there's

667
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 11: a competition. I mean CJ is the starter for this team.

668
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 11: I'm just doing everything I can to bring my best

669

Speaker 1: I'm the man. We got to trade CJ. Stroud, the

685
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:32,960

Speaker 6: Well Dressed Hobo.

781
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 1: We'll get back to TNF coming up in a few

782
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 1: minutes because there's a big question we have to ask

783
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: about Thursday Night Football and it's about a guy that

784
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 1: didn't play a minute in the game tonight. But it's Thursday,

785
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 1: which means there's another big Eagles controversy, because you know,

786
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 1: we get one every day now, and this one, as

787
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,840
Speaker 1: a lot of them, are center around wide receiver AJ Brown,

788
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:48,920
Speaker 1: who has not had a great year been alternately unhappy

789
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 1: with his role as things have gone the past couple

790
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: of weeks. He has gone from someone who went on

791
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 1: Twitch to saying, hey, this year has been a disaster.

792
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 1: Then yesterday everybody mad at Jalen hertzy freelances too much,

793
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 1: and and then Aj Brown they sometimes changed the plays.

794
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: So it's not been a great year for Aj Brown.

795
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,840
Speaker 1: AJ Brown gets the question is he still the same

796
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 1: player from a member of the Eagles media, and this

797
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 1: is how he responded earlier today.

798
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 9: There's speculation out there that you are not the same

799
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 9: player he once.

800
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:24,959
Speaker 1: Man, what would you say to those people?

801
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:26,240
Speaker 5: I can't.

802
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 1: All right, I guess ain't the same player either. That

803
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,799
Speaker 1: good for you, AJ Brown? Oh no, no, no, I'm

804
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 1: staking him going whoa, whoa, whoa. Don't put that evil

805
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:39,919
Speaker 1: on me, Ricky, Bobby, you sucked this year. Don't don't, don't.

806
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 1: Don't drag me into it. No, I haven't run for

807
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: two thousand yards, but I dragged this bleeping team to

808
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: a super Bowl last year while you were sitting on

809
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 1: the sideline reading books. Oh but everybody loved you were

810
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 1: reading a book on the sideline. Well, I'm carrying the

811
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,839
Speaker 1: football and I got five hundred touches last year. I'm

812
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 1: never gonna be the same running back again because I said,

813
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: you know what, we can't throw the football, so you

814
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 1: know what, give it to me. I'll run it thirty

815
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 1: times a game. I'll be that guy. Don't you bring

816
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 1: me in on this man. You suck, you suck. You

817
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 1: own that you suck me. I'm just tired. But you

818
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 1: don't bring don't don't bring me into your drama. You

819
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 1: stinking that by yourself. Yeah, that's what I would say. Earlier,

820
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 1: we got a dramatic reenactment of what Davis Mills might

821
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 1: have said in his head when asked if there was

822
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: a quarterback controversy and whether he viewed himself as a starter.

823
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 1: Now Jason has assumed the personality of Saquan Park. Can

824
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 1: we do this as a recurring bit to where we

825
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,799
Speaker 1: put you in costume in the whole nine yards he is,

826
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 1: He's in an Eagles jersey and feeling questions. But yeah,

827
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 1: for Sakwon Barkley's two yards fewer per carry, you only

828
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 1: have one one hundred yard game. He's been well more

829
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 1: or less a jag in terms of how they've used

830
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,240
Speaker 1: him and his output this year. So yeah, for aj

831
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,720
Speaker 1: Brown though, I think it's kind of funny, right because

832
00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: people immediately go to stats and targets and whatever and say, well,

833
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,399
Speaker 1: you're not contributing, so clearly you're not the same guy

834
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: as opposed to the whole machine isn't working. So he

835
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: just said, okay, if he's the engine, then the andurds broke.

836
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: How about that. All I would say if I was

837
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: a J. Brown is guys, what do you want?

838
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:18,239
Speaker 7: What?

839
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 1: What do you want? We have the best record, we

840
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,319
Speaker 1: have a top three record in the in the league.

841
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:24,319
Speaker 1: We won the Super Bowl and that's boring? What do

842
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 1: you want? It's boring? Hey? Ah, we win? Like that's

843
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:28,399
Speaker 1: that's what Signetti said?

844
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 6: What right?

845
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: That was salty Signetti of Indiana. Look google me I win.

846
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 2: That was great.

847
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 1: That was great for him? A J. Brown? We need

848
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 1: more now. Well look the Eagle. Look they bathe in

849
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 1: dysfunction and they come out smelling like a rose. Well

850
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,080

00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,839
Speaker 1: We're eight and two. We're gonna win the a NFC East.
