Speaker 1: This One Bill's Live presented by Callida Health.

2
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 2: How's everybody doing here on this Wednesday? Chris Brown, Steve

3
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,520
Speaker 2: Jasker here with you once again on One Bill's Live.

4
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 2: Thanks for making us part of your afternoon as the

5
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 2: players are back to work. Although it is a walkthrough

6
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 2: practice that becomes more common late in the season, give

7
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 2: bodies an extra day to recover after thirteen games played

8
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 2: with four to go in the regular season, and the

9
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 2: pads usually come off this time of year as well,

10
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 2: so I imagine it will be more of a regular

11
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 2: practice tomorrow, though it may not be in pads. It's

12
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 2: unlikely to be in pads, maybe shells, you know. And

13
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 2: then Friday, Saturday and off you go. But that's kind

14
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 2: of the mo this time of year for most headed

15
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: coaches in the league.

16
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 3: Take some of the.

17
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: Wear and tear off, knowing that bodies are pretty banged

18
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 2: up this time of year. Even if you are quote

19
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 2: unquote healthy, Bills are getting slowly but surely healthier as

20
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 2: a whole.

21
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 3: We'll get to that in just a second.

22
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 2: This week's game at the Patriots presented by Victory Live,

23
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: the official ticketing analytics partner of the Buffalo Bills, So

24
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 2: how much snow'd you get last night?

25
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 4: Uh? Two and a half three inches?

26
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 3: Oh that's more, nigga, about an inch.

27
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 4: I was just gonna come to work, then I thought,

28
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 4: and I had to plow my drive. I felt compelled,

29
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 4: so I took time to do that. Yeah, it was

30
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 4: good that I did. I had to continue to snow. Yeah.

31
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 2: I ran into the roadblock of I was already showered

32
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 2: and dressed for the day, and then then I opened

33
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 2: the window shade and was like, oh, I guess I'll

34
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 2: have to take care of the driveway here. So then

35
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 2: I get down there and I was like, ah, it's

36
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 2: only an inch. I don't want to fire up with

37
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 2: the snowblower for this. And then I smell like gasoline

38
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: at work, you know, because the exhaust gets on your clothes.

39
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 3: So I just shoveled the whole thing in about twenty minutes.

40
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 3: Wasn't very long.

41
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 2: So yeah, and it's raining now, like it's warmer, so

42
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 2: it's raining. So that's gonna make for a sloppy mess

43
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 2: on the way home. Yeah, but nothing we can't overcome.

44
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: Steve Weatherwise, I didn't check the updated forecast for Foxborough

45
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 2: on Sunday. I'll do that during one of the breaks

46
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 2: and then passing along to everybody because we know that

47
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 2: forecasts can change significantly between a Monday and a Friday

48
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 2: as the week shapes up, So we'll get that to

49
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 2: you a little bit later on in the show. Bill's

Speaker 2: College of Osteopathic Medicine, and head coach Cooan McDermott, when

52
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 2: he addressed the media about an hour ago, provided the

53
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 2: following on an injury update. Not practicing today is Dawson Knox,

54
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 2: but that's due to personal reasons. We know his wife

55
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 2: Alex was due with baby number one. So hopefully all

56
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 2: is well in the Knox household and they're spending some

57
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 2: quality time together. Limited in practice today Terrell Bernard, Joey Bosa,

58
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 2: Spencer Brown and Joshua Palmer As Those four all missed

59
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 2: last week's game, and coach McDermott said on Monday, how

60
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 2: they get through the practice week will determine whether or

61
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 2: not they're back in the lineup this week, but he

62
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 2: did feel like they all had a chance to get

63
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 2: back by the end of the week. Full practice today,

64
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 2: Dalton Kincaid and Cole Bishop Kincaid had to be listed

65
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 2: because he was on the injury report last week, so

66
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 2: by rule he has to be listed this week, even

67
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 2: though he's full go. Same with Cole Bishop who left

68
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 2: the game last week with muscle cramps, not an injury, he.

69
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 3: Still has to be listed as well.

70
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 2: He's full go in practice and as we said, today

71
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 2: is just a walkthrough and it's closed to the media.

72
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 2: Josh Allen named AFC Offensive Player of the Week after

80
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 4: I was watching, I was looking at this, and I

81
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 4: looked down the list at the announcement. Did you look

82
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 4: at who the defensive player of the week was in

83
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 4: the AFC Radeuell Douglas Rasewuel Douglas former Bill now Dolphin.

84
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 2: Gotta watch out for those plucky Dolphins. Plucky Dolphins and

85
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 2: they got the same record as the Chiefs, right now

86
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 2: at six and seven.

87
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the Chiefs are ready to jump off a bridge,

88
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 4: and the Dolphins are thinking.

89
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 3: Hey, we might have a look at this.

90
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, I mean, yeah, they've moved past a bunch

91
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 2: of teams in the last three weeks.

92
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:16,799
Speaker 3: They've won four in a row.

93
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 2: They haven't played great teams on that winning streak, with

94
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 2: the exception of the Bills.

95
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 3: There was the first of that four game.

96
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 4: There in the eleventh s line and it has been

97
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 4: in the past since they went to the seventeen game schedule.

98
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,679
Speaker 4: If you win ten games, you get in. Only one

99
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 4: team has won ten games since the current in the

100
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 4: current format and not gotten in the playoffs.

101
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 3: With seven seeds you're talking about.

102
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 4: With seven seeds and seventeen game schedule, only one team

103
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 4: has won ten games and not gotten in, and it

104
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 4: was your Miami Dolls.

105
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 3: Well, there you are.

106
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 2: There's gonna be a ten win team that doesn't make

107
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,799
Speaker 2: it in on the AFC side with its jam sims.

108
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 4: You're gonna have to get twelve wins to get in,

109
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 4: and then the winner of the twelth the winner of

110
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 4: the North as well.

111
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

112
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 2: Late yesterday the Bill signed cornerback MJ. Devonshire to the

113
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: practice squad. Released guard Nick Broker to make room for

114
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 2: him there. Devonshire, a former seventh round pick of the

115
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 2: Raiders last season, had eight interceptions in college, three of

116
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 2: which he returned for touchdowns. He's also returned punts in

117
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 2: his college career, averaged seven point four yards per return.

118
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 2: Spent his college days both at Kentucky and finished up

119
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 2: at pitt So getting some depth for the secondary, I

120
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 2: suppose on your practice squad.

121
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,239
Speaker 3: And get him up to speed.

122
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 2: Fast player ran four to four to five at the combine,

123
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,719
Speaker 2: so we'll see where it goes. Let's go around the

124
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 2: NFL presented by Kalida Healthy, official healthcare system of the

125
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills and Commander's quarterback Jaden Daniels will not be

126
00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 2: cleared by doctors this week, so Marcus Mariota back in

127
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 2: the starting lineup Sunday when the Commanders faced the Giants. That,

128
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,679
Speaker 2: according to the head coach Dan Quinn, no structural damage

129
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 2: and nothing long term with regard to that same elbow injury,

130
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 2: but he did aggravate it when he fell last week

131
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 2: against the Seahawks, So they're going to proceed carefully here.

132
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 2: The fan base is up in arms because that game

133
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 2: was over early and Daniels was still in the game

134
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter when it was thirty four to

135
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 2: seven against that Seattle defense.

136
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 3: He got knocked around too.

137
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 4: He didn't he got knocked down after a pick or

138
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 4: a turnover of some kind. And because I just saw

139
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 4: the clip of when it happened, he got thrown put

140
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 4: to the ground, and it looked I don't want to say,

141
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 4: I don't want to make light of it, but it

142
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 4: looked innocuous. It looked very like a very light he's

143
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 4: He went down hard, but on his left side, his

144
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 4: arm was where it should have been. It wasn't awkwardly bent.

145
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 4: It was across his body or in front of his body,

146
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 4: and he went down on his shoulder. That's all it took.

147
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 4: I would I didn't watch any of that game, and

148
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 4: I would like to have seen how he played otherwise.

149
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 4: Obviously didn't play well enough. But quarterbacks take a pounding.

150
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 4: They're protected more than any professional athlete, and still they

151
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 4: still get whacked. It's it's crazy, but yeah, that was Well,

152
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 4: it's over for them this season anyway, So you'd probably

153
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 4: get some sort of your some portion of your fan

154
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 4: base trying to say, tell you to sit him down anyway.

155
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 3: Forty four year.

156
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 2: Old Philip Rivers officially a member of the Colts practice

159
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 2: Rippin and kicker Blake Groupie from the practice squad to

160
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 2: their active roster. Colts head coach Shane Steiken said today

161
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 2: on his starting quarterback for Sunday, quote, We'll see that's

162
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 2: because rookie Riley Leonard has a PCL spread. He is

163
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: practicing today, but is considered to be up in the

164
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 2: air status wise for Sunday. Steich and noted Philip Rivers

165
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 2: absolutely came to Indy to play again. He is not

166
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,079
Speaker 2: going to be some veteran mentor. He's just got to

167
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 2: get up to speed and we'll see how quick it is.

168
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 2: By all accounts, the Colts were very impressed with rivers

169
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 2: arm strength when they had him go through a workout.

170
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 3: He's got a fresh arm. He hasn't thrown in two

171
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 3: three four years.

172
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 4: I'll just be quiet, Okay, he's probably he canceling it,

173
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 4: there's no question about. But you're comparing him to Daniel

174
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:44,199
Speaker 4: Jones and this Riley Leonard. So yeah, it looks pretty good. Wow,

175
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,719
Speaker 4: he's forty four year old, Philip Rivers looks pretty good

176
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 4: compared to the guys who can't throw.

177
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, come on what He actually also had a

178
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 2: good laugh with the media. They were asking him where

179
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 2: his playing weight is at, and he said, honestly, I

180
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 2: don't know.

181
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 3: I don't know. He goes.

182
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 2: I can promise you I don't weigh what I did

183
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 2: when I walked off the field in Buffalo after the

184
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:09,719
Speaker 2: wildcard playoff.

185
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 3: Game here, he said.

186
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 2: But I've never run away from anybody ever anyway either,

187
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 2: So what the hell does the weight matter. It's not

188
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 2: like I need to be lighter to escape look like

189
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 2: a gazelle out there.

190
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 4: Yet. Let me say you talk about this a little

191
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 4: bit around that when we discuss pro athletes. Philip Rivers.

192
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 4: He's forty four, yes, but don't forget he's a one percenter.

193
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 4: He is better, smarter, more experienced than everybody you've ever known.

194
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 4: He's a better He's forty four, A better thrower than

195
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 4: anybody you've ever met. He's a better. He knows more

196
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 4: about football than anybody you've ever met. He's better than

197
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,319
Speaker 4: all your beer buddies at the on the park in

198
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,680
Speaker 4: a Sunday afternoon. He's a better athlete than you're a

199
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 4: hockey beer league buddy. And when in his day he

200
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 4: was one percent of one percent of professional athletes. So

201
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 4: four years later, there's gonna be some stuff in there

202
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 4: that he can call on. He's better mentally than anybody

203
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 4: you know. He's smarter anybody you know. I'm telling you

204
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 4: it's it's funny because we're standing around here. We watch

205
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,959
Speaker 4: Josh play, and we watched James Cook playing. We watched

206
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,439
Speaker 4: Dion Dawkins play and Knox and can't getting these guys.

207
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 4: So all these guys are razor sharp on a great

208
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 4: team going. So we kind of like, yeah, okay, let

209
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 4: me tell you something. Philip Rivers right now, at forty four,

210
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 4: is better as a better football player anybody you've ever known,

211
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 4: you've ever met, most people who played college, played high school,

212
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 4: and all that. He's better than all those guys, better

213
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 4: than all of them. At forty four when he was playing,

214
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 4: Philip Rivers was the dude. Now he's not that anymore,

215
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 4: but he might be even eighty percent of it. The

216
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 4: guy's going to be able to function at a higher

217
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 4: level than maybe some of the guys that are playing

218
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 4: as twenty plus something this year in the pros. So

219
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 4: I'm really I'm excited to see him play. I don't

220
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 4: expect him to come out and light it on fire, no,

221
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 4: but be functional. I mean, come on, yes, absolutely, he

222
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 4: can do what Aaron Rodgers is doing. Come on, maybe

223
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 4: he can do what Aeron Rodgers is doing. Maybe he

224
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,439
Speaker 4: can do what Philip Rivers did. I'm not feeling he

225
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 4: can do what Russ Wilson did.

226
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 3: Well, that might be true.

227
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 5: You think he's you think he's more smart with the

228
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 5: football than Jamis, Well, Jamis doesn't care, right, Okay, so

229
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 5: the answer is yes, I'm telling you I get it,

230
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 5: Philip Rivers as all you need out of him is

231
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 5: what four games, five games, six games?

232
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 4: Just give me a sprint to the finish for two months, bros.

233
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 4: Leaf Come on, give me two months, give me eight

234
00:12:55,600 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 4: weeks of everything you got, and we'll see. It's gonna

235
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 4: be fun.

236
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 2: But you said he's he's not that dude anymore. Let's

237
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,319
Speaker 2: just hope that silent e at the end of dude

238
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 2: doesn't disappear and he's a dud.

239
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 4: Well, listen if it goes longer than if it gets

240
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 4: to the playoffs, it'll that E will fade quick. I mean,

241
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 4: let me.

242
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 3: Hold on, let's just I can't do it.

243
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 4: We just we're gonna look. We're gonna look and see

244
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 4: the Indianapolis Colts schedule they have, they've lost three in

245
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 4: a row. Okay, oh they do you know who they play?

246
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 4: Do you know who they play? You know they play?

247
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 4: They play the Seahawks on the road, the Niners at home,

248
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 4: Jacksonville at home, and go to Houston.

249
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 2: He's not gonna see the playoffs because if he's playing,

250
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 2: he might be dead by the Seahawks.

251
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 4: Will Seahawks will kill him. They're gonna chew him up

252
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 4: and spin them all out San Francisco. He'll be okay,

253
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 4: we'll get through that game. Jacksonville.

254
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 3: He'll win in that game.

255
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 4: He'll win Jacksonville. He'll beat Jacksonville. You think so, Yes,

256
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 4: he'll beat Jacksonville, and then Houston. He'll be asking himself,

257
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:01,559
Speaker 4: why did I do this? Why did I do this?

258
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 4: When he meets that defense.

259
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,839
Speaker 2: On the road, Oh god, they might not win a game.

260
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 2: And he just sounded like Jim Moore there in Houston

261
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 2: might not win a game. He goes to Houston playoff,

262
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 2: that will be. That will be, Oh my god, I

263
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 2: gotta win a game. They're gonna lose all.

264
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 3: Four of those.

265
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 4: No, they'll beat Jacksonville if he's if he's still on

266
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 4: too good. No, No, if Philip Rivers doesn't get hurt,

267
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 4: they'll beat Jacksonville.

268
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 3: Think Jacksonville is a little underrated.

269
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 4: Hence my prediction. Okay, but yeah, he's got to play

270
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 4: the Seahawks.

271
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 2: They might And see, I didn't realize they might finish

272
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 2: this season oh and seven.

273
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 3: Oh in seven.

274
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 4: Let's go back to our conversation yesterday, and they pushed

275
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 4: all their chips to the middle of the table.

276
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 3: Yep.

277
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 4: And they're gonna finish oh and seven.

278
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 3: With no first round pick for the next two years.

279
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 4: And they've got but they got sauce for that, Sauce Gardner.

280
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 4: That's why you don't do it, man, You got you

281
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 4: gotta proach a tampire. Here's my philosophy the way I

282
00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 4: see it today, and I can all change it if

283
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 4: I want to, But here's how I see it today.

284
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 4: You've got a program and a scouting department and a

285
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 4: draft philosophy, and the players on your roster and a

286
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 4: way of evaluating and a way of coaching them, and

287
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 4: a way of taking care of the players that has

288
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 4: got you to a point where the Colts were early

289
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 4: in this season, where they were you know, they were

290
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 4: eight and two, right that all that got you to

291
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 4: this moment. Don't think that by there's some magic wand

292
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 4: out there like a cornerback that is going to put

293
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 4: you over the top, to make you the best thing ever.

294
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 4: You got to eight and two because you're good at

295
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 4: all the things you need to be at, good at

296
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 4: to be eight and two. Don't don't light it on fire,

297
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 4: because now you're going to finish oh and seven, to

298
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 4: finish the year, your GM's gone, your head coaches on

299
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 4: at least on the hot seat, and you got no

300
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 4: nobody to play quarterback. That's how fragile it are. Philip Rivers,

301
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 4: let me say this as as close as it seemed

302
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 4: for the Indianapolis Colts, like this is our year. We're

303
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 4: gonna catch lightning in a bottle. This is us as

304
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 4: close as it seems. There's eight other teams who think

305
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 4: they are just as close, and their problems are just

306
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 4: a little bit different than yours. They think that too.

307
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 4: In every one of those teams you included are one

308
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 4: injury away from having an all go up in smoke

309
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 4: all of it.

310
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 3: And it did all of it for the Colts anyway.

311
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 2: Jets are another team that's shorthanded at quarterback. Tyrod Taylor

312
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 2: and Justin Fields both not practicing today, so third stringer

313
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 2: Brady Cook getting the reps at Jets practice today. The

314
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 2: Jets also re signed Adrian Martinez to their practice squad

315
00:16:55,400 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 2: as quarterback insurance, and there are reports that u NFL

316
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 2: clubs are interested in Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman.

317
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,719
Speaker 2: Notre Dame has said they will push to retain Freeman

318
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 2: and make him one of college football's highest paid coaches.

319
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 2: Freeman is forty three to twelve as Notre Dame's coach,

320
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 2: and he led the team to the National title game

321
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 2: last season. Notre Dame completed its season at ten and

322
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,679
Speaker 2: two opted out of a bowl invitation after being snubbed

323
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 2: for the College Football Playoff. Freeman, who's thirty nine, has

324
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 2: never coached in the NFL, but industry sources expect him

325
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 2: to be on the radar for the New York Giants

326
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 2: and other potential openness.

327
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 4: I'll say that. I don't know. Marcus Freeman, certainly, he's

328
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 4: been an impressive entity in college football since he took

329
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,880
Speaker 4: the Notre James job. He's got a lot of cachet

330
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 4: in the college ranks. And I've always said being an

331
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 4: NFL coach has always been a completely different job than

332
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:59,160
Speaker 4: being a college head coach. Head coach not so much anymore.

333
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 4: With NIL and the salary structure and the way that

334
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 4: they worked the inn the college football, it's a lot

335
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,120
Speaker 4: more similar to being a pro coach than it has

336
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 4: ever been. I think the.

337
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,400
Speaker 2: Only difference is you can lose players with the twisting

338
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 2: of the wind.

339
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,120
Speaker 4: Right, there's because the portal is wide open free agency

340
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 4: every every year, every year, so because nobody's under contract.

341
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 4: So that's that's where Marcus Freeman may be a little

342
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 4: bit more prepared, better prepared, more fitting in the NFL

343
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 4: than any college coach that's ever made the jump, including

344
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 4: Jim Harbaugh who's done it twice.

345
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

346
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,880
Speaker 2: Well, and Jim Harbaugh had coached in the NFL before

347
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:43,679
Speaker 2: anything's right.

348
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 4: He played in the NFL as well, so all of that.

349
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 3: So it's within forty nine ers to a sum Bowl.

350
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 4: Yeah. So, and Jim Harball was a good college coach

351
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 4: before he coached the Niners.

352
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 2: I wonder if this is his agent fanning the Flames

353
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 2: here in an effort to get a bigger contract out

354
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 2: of Notre Dame. That could be one possibility. The other

355
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 2: possibility I think here is he has become disenchanted with

356
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:13,679
Speaker 2: the college football playoff because they lost their first two

357
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 2: games and then ran off ten in a row, and

358
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 2: you know, they were a two loss team and didn't

359
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 2: get in. Meanwhile, Alabama's a three loss team and did

360
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 2: get in, and you know, you can run your simulations

361
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 2: any way.

362
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 3: You want and your analytics and all that other data.

363
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 2: I wonder if he's disenchanted with the college football playoff

364
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 2: process and figures, you know, I'm a two loss team,

365
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:44,479
Speaker 2: I play a tough schedule and this is where we are, Like,

366
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 2: am I what can I realistically achieve here? So I

367
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:53,120
Speaker 2: wonder if he's disenchanted at all with the college process.

368
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 2: Of course he would lose that disenchantment if he hasn't

369
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 2: if he gets paid thirteen million a year, which is

370
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 2: what Kiffin just got at LSU thirteen million a.

371
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 4: Year, well yeah, yes, that it may be just him

372
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,879
Speaker 4: trying to posture certainly not. I don't know any I

373
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 4: could not. There is no possible way I could care

374
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 4: less about the college football playoff and the way they

375
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 4: select it because every time they change college foot playing, Wow,

376
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 4: we need to do that, they make it worse. So

377
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,800
Speaker 4: you can say what you want. I think the guy

378
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 4: has a chance to. He seems like a leader first

379
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 4: and foremost. That's what a head coach has to be.

380
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 4: He has to set the tone for your team and

381
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,399
Speaker 4: their mindset and what they're going to do, set the infrastructure.

382
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,719
Speaker 4: He seems more than capable of doing that even at

383
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 4: the pro level and handling players. The returns on what

384
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 4: he has done so far have been stellar, not just good,

385
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 4: but so yeah, it'll be. It would be interesting to see.

386
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 4: And I don't think there's any question he's got to

387
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 4: be on the radar for the NFL ownership. Yeah, those

388
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 4: guys leave no stone unturned. There's no reason not to.

389
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 4: It's only thirty two of those jobs. And you don't

390
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 4: have you only don't have to get elected. All you

391
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 4: gotta do is just have one guy vote for you,

392
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 4: the right right guy.

393
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 3: The interview.

394
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's it, and we've seen that happen so.

395
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,200
Speaker 3: It's how Greg Williams got hired.

396
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 4: Here, That's how Rex got hired here, right has the interview,

397
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 4: has the interview. So I'll say I'm I find that

398
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:41,959
Speaker 4: very interesting and certainly there are going to be some

399
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 4: openings in the NFL. Oh yeah, yeah, interesting.

400
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 2: Topic of discussion for you today. What's the biggest difference

401
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:57,399
Speaker 2: in this week's matchup with the Patriots compared to Week five?

402
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:01,679
Speaker 2: We know teams evolve and change over the course of

403
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,159
Speaker 2: an NFL season. What do you think the biggest difference

404
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 2: is in this week's matchup with the Patriots compared to

405
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 2: their Week five tilt, which obviously went to New England

406
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 2: twenty three to twenty with a kick at the gun

407
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 2: or with fifteen seconds left or whatever it was. Eighth

408
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 2: threeh five point fifty one, eighty eight five fifty two,

409
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 2: five fifty those are the numbers to join us. We

410
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 2: do have open lines for you right now. Can't give

411
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,159
Speaker 2: us a call, not a problem. You can always hit

412
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 2: us up with your thoughts on the tweetsheet at one

413
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 2: Bill's Live. So I'll say this, I think their offense

414
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 2: has become more well rounded than it was in Week five.

415
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 2: Kaishaon Booty has emerged as a true deep threat to

416
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 2: compliment Stefon Diggs and Traveon Henderson. The rookie running back

417
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 2: out of Ohio State is a home run threat and

418
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,199
Speaker 2: the leader of their running game now. He is a

419
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 2: dynamic athlete on a par with James Cook. So you

420
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 2: got to be buttoned up with that guy because I

421
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 2: think he's got two or three runs over forty yards

422
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 2: for touchdowns much like Cook does. So you really got

423
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,919
Speaker 2: to be careful with that one because he is dangerous.

424
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 2: He kind of took over the lead rushing load and

425
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 2: our MSG viewers are seeing the speed. Yeah, so he

426
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 2: ran a four to four flat at the combine.

427
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 4: The thing you have to realize about the Patriots, particularly

428
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 4: in their building, is they'll always be in the perfect

429
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 4: offensive play against your defense. And that's you know, that's

430
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 4: one of their home field advantages they've got, and you know,

431
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 4: you got to be ready. You gotta be ready. You

432
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 4: gotta know where your defense is vulnerable, and you got

433
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 4: to know where their strengths are and where they want

434
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 4: to make you pay. And that's you got to always

435
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 4: have that on the front burner of your mind as

436
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 4: a defender. Always got to have that be thinking about

437
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 4: where your defense is the most vulntle.

438
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I think they're better there. They're more well

439
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 2: rounded offense. They run the ball better than they had

440
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 2: at the beginning of the season. Their defense, I don't

441
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 2: think has changed all that much. They're still a stout

442
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 2: run front. What's interesting about the Patriots is they make

443
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 2: it hard for teams to move the ball down the field.

444
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,479
Speaker 2: They force you to go the long way and they

445
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:26,240
Speaker 2: make that difficult, and rarely do they even let you

446
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 2: reach the red zone. They have given up the fewest

447
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:35,120
Speaker 2: red zone possessions this season. However, if opponents do get

448
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 2: to the red zone, they score touchdowns seventy three percent

449
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 2: of the time. That is the highest percentage allowed in

450
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 2: the league. The Patriots have the worst red zone defense

451
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 2: in football. The problem is they don't let you down

452
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 2: there very often, so when you do get down there,

453
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:51,160
Speaker 2: you better put it in the end zone.

454
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,400
Speaker 4: The last few years of the Belichick era, they used

455
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 4: to give up yards like nothing, they didn't care.

456
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 3: And then they would lock it down in the red In.

457
00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 4: The red zone, they were like impossible to get make

458
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 4: progress on. This is just kind of the inverse clipt Yeah, yeah,

459
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 4: it's hard to get it's hard to move the football

460
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 4: and get first down after first down after first down

461
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 4: on these guys.

462
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,679
Speaker 2: But if you can get get to the red zone,

463
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 2: you got a good chance of scoring. Because these guys

464
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,359
Speaker 2: are giving up touchdowns at a seventy three percent clip.

465
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 2: That isn't a that's a fat number. So it's probably

466
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 2: one of the keys to the game. Just get to

467
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 2: the red zone and cash in and you have a

468
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 2: good chance of beating that team. Eight oh three five

469
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 2: point fifty one eighty eight, five fifty two, five fifty

470
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,959
Speaker 2: the number to get on board. We should tell you

471
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 2: that a little bit later on in the show, after

472
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 2: practice is over, we're gonna have Bill's rookie corner Maxwell

473
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,239
Speaker 2: Hairston here in studio with us as part of our

474
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,679
Speaker 2: Timbits time out. So we look forward to that conversation.

475
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 2: Since he's been back, you know, from the injured reserve list,

476
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 2: he's been getting some playing time here and there in

477
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,400
Speaker 2: Buffalo's secondary we'll see how he's feeling about the time

478
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,359
Speaker 2: he's gotten thus far, where he feels he's improved his game.

479
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 2: So we look forward to that conversation and we'll pull

480
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:06,479
Speaker 2: a question that the fans sent in to ask him

481
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 2: a fan question as well at the close of the interview.

482
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 2: But let's get to the phones at eight h three

483
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,719
Speaker 2: zero five fifty one eighty eight five fifty two five

484
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 2: fifty and to Gary on a sell what's up?

485
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 3: Gary?

486
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 6: Hey, you guys, how y'all doing good?

487
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:20,640
Speaker 3: Good?

488
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 7: I think the question today, I think that they realize,

489
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:27,879
Speaker 7: like they can't take him to by ly.

490
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 8: You know.

491
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 7: Sometimes I believe they do really depressed with guys.

492
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 9: I believe that would.

493
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 7: Be they played the first game and they know what's

494
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,719
Speaker 7: in steak here and they know they can't. You know,

495
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 7: they they got to play clear. You know, they're more

496
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 7: focused because they'll we lost situation. So I think they'll

497
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 7: come out look pretty good personally.

498
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there's definitely some added motivation here to

499
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 2: not let this be a T shirt and hat game

500
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 2: for the Patriots. I mean, you don't want to see

501
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,239
Speaker 2: your five year reign as division champions come to an

502
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 2: end directly because you lost to that team. Because that's

503
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 2: what's on the line for the Patriots this week. They're ready,

504
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 2: they're ready to win and party, and so are their fans. Yeah,

505
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 2: because if they win, they clinched the division and Buffalo's

506
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 2: five year run as division champs is effectively over.

507
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 4: So I'm sure that's logically speaking, that's where a fan

508
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,959
Speaker 4: base like Buffalo should be. You feel like they know

509
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,360
Speaker 4: that this is a really tough game and you expect

510
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 4: your team to respond like that and play well. We'll

511
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 4: see if they do.

512
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, we are up against the break here, so we've

513
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:36,440
Speaker 2: got to step aside.

514
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 3: When we come back.

515
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 2: We may very well have one Max Ariston in studio

516
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,239
Speaker 2: joining us, so stay tuned for that. It's coming your

517
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 2: way next here on One Bill's Live, presented by Colida Health,

518
00:27:45,600 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 2: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right, back here on One

519
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 2: Bill's Live, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you and joined

520
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 2: in studio now fresh off the practice field by Bill's

521
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 2: rookie corner, Max Harston and Max.

522
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:09,640
Speaker 3: Good to have you here. First of all.

523
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,919
Speaker 2: Second, you've been back for a bit now, like you know,

524
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 2: you not only got your feet wet, but you played

525
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,479
Speaker 2: in some games. And I'm just curious, like all the

526
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 2: anticipation of working back from ir and now that you've

527
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 2: played a good series of games here, did the anticipation

528
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 2: and build up to getting back kind of did you

529
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 2: make it more than it was or do you feel

530
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,919
Speaker 2: like you overestimated it and what it would be like

531
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 2: or was it right around what you thought it would

532
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 2: be because you had to wait longer than you probably

533
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 2: wanted to to get on the field.

534
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 10: Yeah, for sure.

535
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 11: Coming back, I definitely was like, okay, this is about

536
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 11: to be. Like you know, I was kind of just

537
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 11: preparing myself for the words, hoping for the best, but

538
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 11: just being around a team like this, like my teammates

539
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 11: just making so much easier for me to transition back

540
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 11: out and from that point on it is really just

541
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 11: me playing fast and playing free, knowing that my teammates

542
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 11: trusting me in my abilities.

543
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 4: So you know, I mean, you get drafted by Buffalo

544
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 4: and you've heard all the stories about the weather or something,

545
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 4: and you play that game this last weekend, it's like

546
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 4: they weren't joking.

547
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 10: Nah, they weren't.

548
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 11: But luckily, luckily I got being from Michigan under my bill.

549
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 11: So I've actually played in probably a couple of snow games,

550
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 11: but none like that.

551
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 10: But like I had an idea on kind of what

552
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 10: to expect.

553
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 3: Because they got lake effects snow up in Michigan.

554
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, Michigan gets right for sure.

555
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I figured as much.

556
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 2: Your college team ain't Dion Walker. He's gone the whole

557
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 2: way here. I mean you only got back after week

558
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 2: eight nine, I think it was. Have you talked to him,

559
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 2: because you know, this is a time where rookies really

560
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 2: start to feel it because you're in either a bowl

561
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 2: season or b in college football playoff. The regular season's over.

562
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 2: You still got four more regular season games before we

563
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 2: even get to playoffs here? How is Dion kind of

564
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 2: handling the rookie grind?

565
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 11: So to speak honestly with Dion, I kind of just

566
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 11: give him his flowers, Like, bro, like you played the preseason,

567
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 11: all of camp like everything.

568
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 10: You didn't miss a game.

569
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 11: I missed like seven games, and it's kind of like whoa,

570
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 11: Like he's still going, and it's like, you know, he

571
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 11: hasn't complained, he hasn't put his head down day. I

572
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 11: just continue the works, And like, honestly, that's motivation for

573
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 11: me seeing somebody that's from where I'm from, went to

574
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 11: the same school and you know, grinding out the same

575
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 11: season right now. So he's somebody that's definitely handling it well,

576
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 11: somebody that Rickie could use it as an example for

577
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 11: a for.

578
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 2: A how has uh Trey helped you in the film

579
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 2: room in terms of little nuanced things to look at

580
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 2: from future opponents, like, hey, this receiver when he's leaning

581
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 2: heavy on his front foot, it might mean this, or hey,

582
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,239
Speaker 2: if he's looking at the ball pre snap. You know,

583
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 2: there's little idiosyncrasies for each receiver, as you well know.

584
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 2: But has he pointed some of those out to you

585
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 2: sitting next to him in the film room.

586
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

587
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 11: Honestly, every week I kind of asked him and see

588
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 11: be like, know, how are you studying this week?

589
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 10: How are you approaching it? What are you looking at?

590
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 11: And every week they've told me, you know, little different

591
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 11: pointers and stuff how to watch film efficiently. And that's

592
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 11: probably been the biggest thing for it, because you know, yeah,

593
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 11: we watch film and stay together as a group here,

594
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 11: but when I'm at home, I also want to kind

595
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 11: of go back in and look over my noses too,

596
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 11: and they just kind of help me on what, you know,

597
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 11: in particular, to watch film, to spend your time. What

598
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 11: am I watching? Or you know, what's this formation? Telling

599
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 11: me like stuff like that, and they've been there. They've

600
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 11: been a great help man even since before I got

601
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 11: back to playing. They've been kind of giving me pointers

602
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 11: on how to watch film.

603
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 4: What's the vibe in the locker room about like this

604
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 4: week about the New England Patriots, second time you've played them,

605
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 4: and what are the veterans talking about?

606
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 10: Really?

607
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 11: Just you know, we get a second opportunity to go

608
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 11: out there and do what we do. You know, I

609
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 11: didn't play that first matchup, but just knowing the Vets,

610
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 11: they want this one back, and you know this, this

611
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 11: is a division game, man, So it's just one of

612
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,719
Speaker 11: those games. And I'm excited to be a part of it.

613
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 11: But the Vets, man, they're hungry, and you know I'm

614
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 11: there with him.

615
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean for the Patriots, they have a chance

616
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 2: to make this a hat and T shirt game.

617
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 3: I'm sure you guys are.

618
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 2: Aware of that, and you don't want to be the

619
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 2: team to let them celebrate with hats and T shirts.

620
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 2: So not that you guys need any extra motivation and

621
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 2: division game, but I'm sure you guys don't want to

622
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 2: see them putting on hats and T shirts.

623
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 11: You're gonna go out there and do what you gotta do.

624
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,959
Speaker 11: Play as a team, play fast, and play free. It's

625
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 11: the biggest thing.

626
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 4: What's been the biggest surprise being in the secondary with

627
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 4: these guys like you have like Jordan Poyer, who's been

628
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 4: around the block six times, right, I mean, he knows

629
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 4: his way around. But then it's you, it's Cole Bishop,

630
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 4: who's just in his second year. You got Jordan Hancock

631
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 4: back there. What are the young guys, what are the

632
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 4: old guys telling the young guys. What's the vibe like

633
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 4: and the conversations between those guys.

634
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 11: Honestly, I was just talking to Poe before he went

635
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 11: out in practice, and he's just telling me like, man, like,

636
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 11: you know, don't let one play bring you down. Kind

637
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 11: of just like you know, I love you, I got

638
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 11: your back, keep playing free. He was like, also, just

639
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 11: don't forget who you are. Don't forget you know why

640
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 11: you're here, why the Bills drafted you. And you know,

641
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 11: someone like Poyer and Tearing and Trey like those are

642
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 11: all guys who's been here, been through good and bad,

643
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 11: and they've just been helping me kind of navigate my

644
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 11: rookie year on, you know, mentally physically, how to take

645
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 11: on this league. And honestly, they've been of great helps.

646
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 4: One of the things about it, and you know before

647
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 4: you were born. I was like that I was a

648
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 4: young player, And really it's the hardest part about it

649
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 4: the physicality you're way, you're light years ahead of the

650
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 4: base of what you need as an athlete. What's hard

651
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 4: is the emotional roller coaster you're going because you even

652
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 4: in training camp you have great rapists like man, I'm

653
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 4: gonna be all pro my first year, and the next

654
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 4: rep is like, man, I'm not even gonna make the team.

655
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 3: Right, I felt that It's crazy.

656
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, really back in camp, I definitely had some

657
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 11: up and down and then getting hurt, not being able

658
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 11: to finish camp. It's kind of like, dang, so I

659
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 11: can't even go out there and fix what I you know,

660
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 11: then proctap.

661
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 10: But you know, man, just just.

662
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,760
Speaker 11: Really leaning on these guys who's been here, Like, man,

663
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 11: they know what they're talking about, and I feel like

664
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 11: I'd be a fool not to kind of take the

665
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 11: pointers and lessons that they can give me.

666
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm sure you've been told by other corners

667
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 2: on this roster there is no corner that's playing in

668
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 2: the NFL that has not been beat. Yeah, there's not

669
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:15,840
Speaker 2: one of them. Everyone's been beat. Like it's just the

670
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 2: nature of the position. But it's like that thing and

671
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 2: ted Lasso have the mind of a goldfish because the

672
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 2: goldfish only has a memory for about ten seconds. You

673
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 2: guys got to have a ten second memory, right if

674
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 2: you're gonna play your best.

675
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 11: And there's many different ways to put it, but ultimately

676
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:34,320
Speaker 11: it's like you gotta have that tough skin, like at corner.

677
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,360
Speaker 11: I for like corner and kind of quarterback, it's like

678
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 11: you have to have that tough scin like good or bad.

679
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 10: You have to move on.

680
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:43,799
Speaker 4: Yes, nothing can change your mindset on the next snap. Yeah,

681
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 4: no matter what happens, happened to the past, You've got

682
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 4: to attack the next snap like it's the first one

683
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 4: and you've been winning all day, right Yeah yeah, And

684
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 4: it's hard to do sometimes.

685
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,400
Speaker 11: It is, especially like being that corner. You know, you

686
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 11: give up one, let's say, give up one early, and

687
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 11: you got to play the rest of the game with

688
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:00,399
Speaker 11: the tip winners sort of knowing that, yeah, I gave

689
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 11: up one, but it's like you're not gonna give me again.

690
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 11: That's kind of just the mindset you have to have

691
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 11: playing this position.

692
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 3: Let's get to this week's tim bits.

693
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,440
Speaker 2: Time Out presented by of course Tim Horton's where we

694
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 2: have the fans ask Bills players a unique question. This

695
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 2: one comes from Wombat. I'm sure that's a nickname, but

696
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 2: he asks, how has rotating in affected your feel for

697
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 2: the game and what benefits, if any, do you see

698
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 2: from that? Because you come from a place where you're

699
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 2: playing every snap, you're a starter, You're in there, you

700
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 2: don't come out. Now it's a little bit different, like

701
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 2: you're platooning a little bit. So how has that affected

702
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 2: your feel for the game and what benefits do you

703
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 2: see from it?

704
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:41,479
Speaker 3: If any?

705
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 11: A benefit off the rip is, you know, if I

706
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,759
Speaker 11: know I'm not going out there first, I get a

707
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 11: chance to see those, you know, those plays that every

708
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 11: offense kind of comes into the game with. I get

709
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 11: a chance to see those from the sideline. I get

710
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 11: a chance to see what type of vibe that they're

711
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 11: bringing to the game because kind of that first second

712
00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 11: drive is when the offense kind of shows okay, like

713
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 11: this is my plan for to day. I get a

714
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,959
Speaker 11: chance to kind of see the answers on the test

715
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 11: before I go and take the test. And it's different,

716
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 11: it's an adjustment, but I trust that my coaches you

717
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 11: know they're going to put me in the best position

718
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:15,240
Speaker 11: and rather thats rotating with chair or not. I trust

719
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 11: the plan that they have for me, and I just

720
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 11: got to go out there and execute when I do

721
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:19,280
Speaker 11: get my chance.

722
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 4: Awesome stuff, man, It's great to meet you, and then

723
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 4: good luck the rest of us. Stay on two good pins.

724
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 10: Huh.

725
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 12: All right?

726
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 2: That's Max Harriston joining us in anticipation of the big

727

Speaker 2: Week fifteen matchup against the New England Patriots. Will take

728
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 2: a break here and be back with more on One

729
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 2: Bill's Live presented by a Lot of Health.

730
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:36,920
Speaker 3: It's Buffalo Bills Radio.

731
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:57,280
Speaker 2: From the Coach's Office is presented by CfBT Copyer Fax

732
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 2: Business Technology, the official office technology comp of the Buffalo Bills.

733
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 2: And I have to imagine Steve and we just kind

734
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:09,799
Speaker 2: of heard it to some degree from Max Harston. They

735
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 2: don't want to make this too big a thing on Sunday,

736
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 2: it's a division game. Guys are going to be locked in.

737
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 2: The division title is literally on the line.

738
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the.

739
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 2: Bills don't want to be the team handing them the

740
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 2: division championship with a loss. But how do the coaches

741
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 2: protect against guys getting overhyped and out of their mind.

742
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 4: It doesn't however they handle it. Here's what the problem is.

743
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 4: You can't. It's like we were talking about pushing your

744
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 4: chips to the table. You can't throw everything into this

745
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:44,279
Speaker 4: game because you got three more after this, and those

746
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 4: are just as important. You know, you got to win

747
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 4: those two. And if you go out and somehow, you know,

748
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,399
Speaker 4: they get a lucky even if they get a lucky

749
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:53,040
Speaker 4: bouncing that they win it by the skin of their teeth.

750
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 4: You should have want to have had it going in

751
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 4: and it gets away at the end. Now what do

752
00:37:58,160 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 4: you do? You know? Now, what do you do? You

753
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,319
Speaker 4: got three more games to play. The season is still on.

754
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,319
Speaker 4: You got to get seated. You got I mean you can't.

755
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:05,919
Speaker 3: Did you tell me I had a high school coach

756
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 3: that like threw a chair through a window.

757
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 2: That Sean McDermott said that his story said, yeah, one

758
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,399
Speaker 2: of this. Well, then we're high school coaches that playing

759
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 2: their rival first game of the season, fire and brimstone speech,

760
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 2: first game of the season, throws a chair through a window,

761
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,759
Speaker 2: they kill the other team, they win the game, and

762
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,000
Speaker 2: then the next week you's got to get them hyped

763
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 2: up again and they lose and it's right. Well, you

764
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 2: kind of started at the top, put everything into the

765
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:31,919
Speaker 2: first one, forgot about the next one.

766
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:36,319
Speaker 4: So you gotta This is the other side, the other

767
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,800
Speaker 4: edge of the double edged sword of trusting the process.

768
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:45,160
Speaker 3: You don't you know, you don't make any one game

769
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 3: more than another.

770
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 4: This is this is your process. You're doing exactly what

771
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 4: you do to be successful. Let's do it again and

772
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:55,880
Speaker 4: again and again. Like you said, you're not doing it

773
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 4: until you get it right. You're doing it until you

774
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 4: can't get it wrong. Let's do it. Keep doing that.

775
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:06,879
Speaker 4: So that's the mindset you have to have. Because big game,

776
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 4: important game, sure, but only because of the last you know,

777
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:14,919
Speaker 4: twelve games or thirteen games you've already played. That's why

778
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:18,080
Speaker 4: this is important. You got another three games after this one.

779
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 4: So let's, you know, play this game, try and win it.

780
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:26,359
Speaker 4: Do everything we can't. Let's trust our process and see

781
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 4: what happens.

782
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 2: So that's from the Coaches Office, presented by cf BT.

783
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 2: Got to get back to the phones where we're asking

784
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 2: you today, what's the biggest difference in this week's matchup

785
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 2: with the Patriots compared to the one back in week five?

786
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:42,320
Speaker 3: To Mike and Syracuse Next what's up, Mike, Hi, Chris.

787
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 13: I's Steve how I guy's doing good?

788
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 4: Good?

789
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 13: I think I think one of the biggest differences is

790
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 13: I would probably say that I really feel like Drake

791
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 13: May has pretty much solidified himself as one of the

792
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 13: top quarterbacks at least this season. I watched him play

793
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 13: a good amount and he is He is a good player.

794
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 13: It's very accurate, and I feel like he's in a

795
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,720
Speaker 13: great rhythm with his offense. So I definitely think that

796
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,480
Speaker 13: that's a little bit more of a difference. I went

797
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 13: to the first New England game when they played US

798
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 13: at High Mark, and he was pretty impressive to watch.

799
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 13: I thought he had a good game down as well,

800
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 13: So I think that maybe we need to need to

801
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:23,720
Speaker 13: be a little bit more just I would say, maybe

802
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:25,839
Speaker 13: not the best word, but cautious about how about how

803
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 13: well he could dissect our defense. And what I'd hopefully

804
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 13: like to see is just to see him under a

805
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:34,399
Speaker 13: little bit more pressure, maybe similar to the way if

806
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 13: we have the personnel to do it, depending on injuries,

807
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 13: to get some more cage rushes on him, to not

808
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 13: let him move because I know he's got some legs

809
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:43,520
Speaker 13: as well. He can he can also move and run.

810
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 13: Hopefully he gets some more cage rushes on and colass

811
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,280
Speaker 13: in his pocket to put him under a little more pressure,

812
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,879
Speaker 13: because the times I have watched him play, I think

813
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 13: because of their fluff schedule, he's just rarely been under pressure.

814
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 13: So he's able to just stand back there and drop

815
00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 13: dimes those players. So that's that's kind of what I

816
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 13: would like to see out of the game. And you know,

817
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,280
Speaker 13: I can hang up and listen then go bills this weekend.

818
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks for the call, Mike.

819
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, they haven't played a fourth play schedule.

820
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,279
Speaker 2: You can't blame them for the schedule they have. They

821
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 2: just got to play Who's next.

822
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:12,279
Speaker 4: On the list?

823
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 2: I will say this because we talked to Danie Rolofski

824
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:21,799
Speaker 2: about this yesterday. Every play and game plan that Josh

825
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 2: McDaniels draws up prioritizes protection first, and I think on

826
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 2: Sunday we're gonna see more of it. But you're gonna

827
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,360
Speaker 2: see chipping with backs. You're gonna see tight ends helping

828
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 2: out tackles, especially they're left tackle Vidarien Low, who's a backup.

829
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,799
Speaker 2: They start with protection in an effort to give Drake

830
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 2: May the extra half second, he might need as a

831
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 2: less experienced quarterback to let.

832
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:47,280
Speaker 4: It go.

833
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,520
Speaker 2: If you have him, if you give him the opportunity

834
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 2: to step into throws. The kid throws dots. I mean

835
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 2: he throws dimes in tight coverage. I was watching the

836
00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 2: game before the bye, and it's good coverage on a

837
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 2: route down the sideline and he drops it forty yards

838
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:07,799
Speaker 2: over the guy's shoulder where only he can get it,

839
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 2: and the dB is right there and it's a touchdown.

840
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 2: So he is uncommonly accurate when he has time to

841
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,759
Speaker 2: step into a throw, and they make sure they draw

842
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 2: up the protection as such to give him that time.

843
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 3: So the Bills, I think, are gonna have to get.

844
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:26,239
Speaker 2: Creative with some of their pressure packages, some of their

845
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:31,879
Speaker 2: simulated pressures, whether they're coming or not, and whether it's

846
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 2: up the middle or off the edge where they seem

847
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 2: to block it up pretty well. The Bills are gonna

848
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 2: have to get creative like they did last week, to

849
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,720
Speaker 2: get the requisite pressure on him to hurry some throws,

850
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,239
Speaker 2: maybe even force some ill advised throws, and get some

851
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 2: takeaways on him because he hasn't had many.

852
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:51,040
Speaker 4: Is I think on I think the current state of

853
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 4: the Bills defense even if Joey Bosa is in there

854
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 4: and he's one hundred percent, they have to get creative

855
00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,800
Speaker 4: and have to send extra pressure or fool the offensive

856
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 4: line in order to get pressure. I mean, you saw

857
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 4: that last week against Cincinnati. They just don't have a

858
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 4: dominant pass rush in a consistent way.

859
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 2: But you got to get in third and long and

860
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 2: obvious passing situations to even get to that exotic stuff, right,

861
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 2: and they've done that because each of the last two

862
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 2: weeks they've held their opponents to under seventy yards rushing.

863
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 2: And that might be step one, which was kind of

864
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:28,359
Speaker 2: the approach last week. They neutralized Chase Brown and made

865
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 2: the Bengals one dimensional. The problem was it was really

866
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 2: hard stopping that passing attack and they had to get creative.

867
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, the problem, Yeah, step one, stopping the run doesn't

868
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:45,960
Speaker 4: necessarily lead to step two because they still can't pressure

869
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:49,359
Speaker 4: the passer consistently enough. And that's where it's going to start.

870
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 4: You're looking at once again, if you want to follow

871
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 4: the recipe for success for this particular edition of the

872
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 4: Bills defense, given the fact and the injuries to Oliver,

873
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 4: and they're gonna have to make plays, tip passes, get interceptions,

874
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:10,320
Speaker 4: have a quarterback make a bad throw, force the fumble.

875
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,640
Speaker 4: They're gonna have to make something off script happen in

876
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:19,960
Speaker 4: the turnover column, because manning up on these guys. This

877
00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 4: isn't the Patriots of two or three years ago, three

878
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 4: or four years ago. They've got some better talent. They're

879
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 4: playing better, they're more well rounded, they're gonna play more

880
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 4: complimentary football, and they're gonna be able to grind out

881
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 4: first downs. So you're gonna have to make some plays

882
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:39,040
Speaker 4: on them with prying the ball out of their hands

883
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 4: or picking it off because they're gonna be mining their

884
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:45,200
Speaker 4: p's and q's, and they're gonna be at home and

885
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:49,279
Speaker 4: it's gonna be easier for them. So playmaking is the

886
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,399
Speaker 4: key to success for this Bills defense. Find a way

887
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,840
Speaker 4: to get the ball on the ground or in your possession.

888
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 3: Let's go to Tom on the west side next.

889
00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 14: What's up Tom afternoon? Jens, Happy hump day. Listen, you

890
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 14: guys just touched down half of what I was going

891
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,800
Speaker 14: to talk about about the soft schedule for New England,

892
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,760
Speaker 14: because they got a fourth place schedule and it still

893
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 14: is a fourth place schedule. Now they're playing better, and

894
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 14: I get it. But the Bills have been struggling because

895
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,480
Speaker 14: ever since the beginning of the season they've had to

896
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 14: deal with multiple injuries, and they're getting people back and

897
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 14: they're starting to open up the war chest with what

898
00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:37,839
Speaker 14: they have available. So I mean, I can see how

899
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 14: we can counter them. And I still can't get over

900
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:46,000
Speaker 14: that Benford pickoff for at six. That was unbelievable. That

901
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 14: changed the whole complex of that game. So if they

902
00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,200
Speaker 14: can get more pressure, just like you guys were talking

903
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 14: about on May, I'd like May, but he's not Josh

904
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:01,239
Speaker 14: Allen talk about it.

905
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, uh, you won't get an argument for me.

906
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,400
Speaker 2: But this is a matchup of two really good quarterbacks

907
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 2: that have put up the numbers this year. I mean,

908
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 2: these are the top two rated quarterbacks in the AFC.

909
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:17,399
Speaker 2: They're one and two. May is like one eleven point

910
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 2: nine and Josh is one O two point nine. They're

911
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:23,240
Speaker 2: one and two in the AFC. So let's see what happens.

912
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,200
Speaker 2: Let's see who rises to the occasion and performs. I mean,

913
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,640
Speaker 2: there's no other way to look at that. I think

914
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:34,560
Speaker 2: Alan can do more because of his dangerous rushing game

915
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:38,400
Speaker 2: that he possesses, but May can run around he just

916
00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 2: hasn't had.

917
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:39,919
Speaker 3: Two as much.

918
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's May has played at an extremely high level.

919
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 3: He's an athlete.

920
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 4: And he's getting he gets getting, he's getting better. He's

921
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:53,200
Speaker 4: much He's got to be considering how much more comfortable

922
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 4: he can be. He is in the offense now than

923
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,799
Speaker 4: he was in week five, and particularly in week one.

924
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:01,160
Speaker 4: You know, probably feels like night and day to him

925
00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:05,839
Speaker 4: and the guys around him. They know themselves better. So yeah,

926
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 4: I'm this is gonna be a rough game, a really

927
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,880
Speaker 4: rough game. New England's tough in their building, very tough.

928
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,359
Speaker 2: The last five games between these two teams have been

929
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:21,759
Speaker 2: single possession games and single score outcomes, so there's no

930
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:23,480
Speaker 2: reason to think it's not gonna be another tight one.

931
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 2: Let's squeeze mic and cheek to Waga in here before

932
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:25,799
Speaker 2: the break.

933
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 8: What's up, Mike, Hey guys, thanks for taking my call. Sure, well,

934
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 8: I know how Drake May is playing spectacular, but I

935
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 8: think Buffalo has to try to keep Digs out of

936
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:41,239
Speaker 8: the game. They have to keep him out of the game,

937
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 8: and not that, but Drake May has never really played

938
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:49,239
Speaker 8: in a pressure cooker like this game coming up, and

939
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 8: let's see what he can do. Under pressure. I think

940
00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 8: we can do better. I think we got the we

941
00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 8: got the ace in the hole with Josh. Let's just

942
00:47:57,400 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 8: see what you say.

943
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:01,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, he's a giant X factor.

944
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:06,640
Speaker 2: I mean, there's a reason why all the analytics projections

945
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 2: still have the Bills with one of the best chances

946
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:09,680
Speaker 2: in the.

947
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,960
Speaker 3: AFC to reach the Super Bowl. It's because of seventeen.

948
00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 2: And in a year where you may not have some

949
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,920
Speaker 2: of his most ardent adversaries at the position in the

950
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 2: playoff pool Mahomes, Jackson, Burrow, you might have the best

951
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:30,400
Speaker 2: guy in the game on the AFC side of the

952
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:34,319
Speaker 2: Ledger come playoff time. So yeah, he's that big a

953
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 2: difference maker. And you know, it's why the line is

954
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 2: essentially flat for this game, which is in Foxborough.

955
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,880
Speaker 4: It happens all the time, and I understand the logic

956
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,239
Speaker 4: of it, but I'm not really I don't buy into it.

957
00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 4: Hoping the other guy cracks is not a strategy. You

958
00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:58,919
Speaker 4: got to play. You gotta play well enough to beat

959
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 4: the guy at his best. That's got to be your plan.

960
00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:04,920
Speaker 4: You can't And I understand it may happen. And Drake May.

961
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:07,560
Speaker 4: We've never seen Drake May in this kind of playoff

962
00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 4: type atmosphere. This game is for the division title. We've

963
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:13,000
Speaker 4: never seen that, and you think maybe he's not up

964
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 4: to it, don't count on it.

965
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 2: No break time for us here when we come back.

966
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 2: We are wide open for your phone calls in the

967

973
00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 2: All right, welcome back to One Bill's Live hour number

974
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:21,239
Speaker 2: two Here on a Wednesday, Chris Brown Steve Tasker with you,

975
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,279
Speaker 2: and what do you think the biggest difference is in

976
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 2: this week's matchup with the Patriots compared to that of

977
00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:31,080
Speaker 2: week five three point loss twenty three to twenty that

978
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 2: began the squandering of a four to oh start and

979
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:37,879
Speaker 2: currently put them on the path to the position they sit,

980
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 2: which is sixth in the wild card seedings with four

981
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:43,280
Speaker 2: games to play.

982
00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:44,839
Speaker 3: You let us know at eight oh three oh.

983
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:48,000
Speaker 2: Five fifty one eighty eight five fifty two five point

984
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:50,239
Speaker 2: fifty to Kevin in Williamsville.

985
00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:50,880
Speaker 3: What's up, Kevin.

986
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:58,040
Speaker 9: Merry Christmas, gentlemen, Merry Christmas. The biggest difference I think

987
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,200
Speaker 9: is that New England this weekend is coming off a bye.

988
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:08,160
Speaker 9: I did a little research to see what teams a

989
00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:12,640
Speaker 9: win percentage coming off bys in the NFL over the

990
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,279
Speaker 9: past five years, and it's nothing earth shattering. It's like

991
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:21,280
Speaker 9: fifty eight percent win. But I just wanted to answer

992
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 9: your question, how does it differ, you know, from the

993
00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:30,480
Speaker 9: earlier game. And I just stumbled upon something too that when.

994
00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:33,840
Speaker 3: We lost to Atlanta off the by.

995
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 9: They came they came off a bye as well. Yeah,

996
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,440
Speaker 9: but that's it. Have a wonderful holiday, and thanks for

997
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 9: everything you do.

998
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:41,399
Speaker 3: Sure thing.

999
00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the buye could be an advantage that team.

1000
00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:47,319
Speaker 4: You always feel like it is, you know.

1001
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 2: The coaches obviously have extra time to game plan, throw

1002
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:53,720
Speaker 2: a few extra wrinkles in there to use some tendency.

1003
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 4: Break get healthy? Will they get healthier?

1004
00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:57,360
Speaker 2: Players can get healthier, although some of the players that

1005
00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 2: they had injured still aren't healthy enough to return, namely

1006
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:03,400
Speaker 2: left cakit Amble, left tackle, Will Campbell, in defensive tackle,

1007
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 2: Milton Williams, who's still on injured reserve. But yeah, there

1008
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:12,319
Speaker 2: can be advantages. I would have to believe there are

1009
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:17,399
Speaker 2: some inside that building. After winning ten in a row,

1010
00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 2: you don't want to stop, you don't want to disrupt

1011
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:22,480
Speaker 2: that mojo, and now you have to sit for a week.

1012
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:27,040
Speaker 2: I'm sure bodies were hanging after playing thirteen games in

1013
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 2: a row.

1014
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,080
Speaker 3: Because they have the latest buy in the league.

1015
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:33,280
Speaker 2: Week fourteen is the last week that teams have buys

1016
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:35,000
Speaker 2: across the league.

1017
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:39,080
Speaker 4: All thirty two teams will be in action this weekend. Yeah,

1018
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 4: let's face it, everybody since they instituted the I was

1019
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 4: there when they instituted the bye. That's how long it's

1020
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:51,600
Speaker 4: been around. It's always a good time for the buye.

1021
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:56,640
Speaker 4: In fact, let's have another buye. You know it. It's

1022
00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:59,280
Speaker 4: hard to play. It hurts. You want to feel great,

1023
00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 4: and you never do unless you start to rest. And

1024
00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 4: when these teams finish their season, whenever it is, whether

1025
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,160
Speaker 4: it's winning the Super Bowl or whether the last game

1026
00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 4: of the regular season you're out because you're out of

1027
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 4: the playoffs. Whenever that last game comes, ninety nine percent

1028
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:21,200
Speaker 4: of the guys on these rosters, they don't do anything

1029
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:25,720
Speaker 4: for three weeks or a month. They don't do anything.

1030
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:29,480
Speaker 4: They lay on their back and heal up. So this

1031
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 4: buys are always always welcome. There is no bad time

1032
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:36,960
Speaker 4: for a buye. There's only bad ways to handle it

1033
00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:39,840
Speaker 4: right and so yeah, there you go.

1034
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 2: Which brings me to this statistic. The Bills have lost

1035
00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,720
Speaker 2: their last three games against an opponent coming off a bye,

1036
00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 2: as previously mentioned Week six at Atlanta. The last one

1037
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:56,280
Speaker 2: prior to that was the redo field goal of twelve

1038
00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 2: men on the field penalty game against Denver, and the

1039
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:03,440
Speaker 2: one before that was when they got whacked in Tennessee

1040
00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:07,320
Speaker 2: back in twenty twenty forty two to sixteen when Derrick

1041
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:10,440
Speaker 2: Henry ran wild. If you want to feel better as

1042
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:13,080
Speaker 2: a Bills fan, I can give you this. The New

1043
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:18,440
Speaker 2: England Patriots since twenty twenty are one and four coming

1044
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 2: off their bye week one and four. They won their

1045
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 2: most recent game, which was in twenty twenty two. It

1046
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,040
Speaker 2: was three years later, three years ago they won ten

1047
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:29,400
Speaker 2: to three against the Jets.

1048
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:32,239
Speaker 3: So one and four coming off the bye, and that

1049
00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:32,920
Speaker 3: last time.

1050
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:35,560
Speaker 4: That wasn't that wasn't a Mike Rabel team. No, no,

1051
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:37,440
Speaker 4: So this is a different animal.

1052
00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:37,879
Speaker 15: Man.

1053
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,040
Speaker 4: I might never go back and look at Tennessee's record

1054
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:41,920
Speaker 4: when they would come off of bye with Mike Vrabel

1055
00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:43,800
Speaker 4: as head coach, that might give us a more accurate

1056
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:45,560
Speaker 4: look at what we can expect.

1057
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, hard to say, though. Back to the phones and

1058
00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 2: to Bill in Connecticut.

1059
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:55,040
Speaker 16: What's up, Bill, guys, I've got four things for you quickly,

1060
00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:55,760
Speaker 16: if that's okay.

1061
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:56,280
Speaker 3: Sure.

1062
00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:00,040
Speaker 16: One is, we had the chance to be back in

1063
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:05,040
Speaker 16: town last week, and it's easy to forget just how

1064
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,960
Speaker 16: good getting a beef on weck with what extra horse

1065
00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:12,360
Speaker 16: radis and Anderson's is. So that was a highlight. Two,

1066
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:15,080
Speaker 16: we got to see our grandson show up at the

1067
00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:18,759
Speaker 16: rail when they did the replay on Jackson Hawes touchdowns,

1068
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:22,480
Speaker 16: So that was pretty exciting. So way to go, Corey B.

1069
00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:25,440
Speaker 16: Then I wanted to talk a little bit about Jordan

1070
00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:30,840
Speaker 16: Foyer in this coming game. Loved Jordan Foyer before he left,

1071
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:35,200
Speaker 16: thought he'd lost a step. Did not love him at Miami,

1072
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:37,600
Speaker 16: as I called during the off season because he got

1073
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:40,399
Speaker 16: two on sports and like conducts against us.

1074
00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:42,719
Speaker 15: But when he came back.

1075
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,400
Speaker 16: And said, you know, I'll mentor, but I got gas

1076
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,520
Speaker 16: left in the tank, man.

1077
00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:47,960
Speaker 13: He was right.

1078
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 16: And while he's probably lost a step physically, I think

1079
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:57,080
Speaker 16: he's gained a step mentally, he's you know, he's a

1080
00:55:57,080 --> 00:56:00,000
Speaker 16: step ahead of everybody else. So I think he's made

1081
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:02,399
Speaker 16: up for it, and just really have to see him

1082
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:05,600
Speaker 16: in there and hopeful that he can make a difference

1083
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:10,840
Speaker 16: on Sunday. I'm hopeful too that the biggest difference between

1084
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:15,359
Speaker 16: week five and this coming week is turnovers for us,

1085
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:18,680
Speaker 16: we take better care of the ball. So with that,

1086
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:20,799
Speaker 16: I'll say, go Bills and listen to what you have

1087
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:21,320
Speaker 16: to say.

1088
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:25,680
Speaker 2: All Right, thanks very much, Bill, appreciate the call. Yeah,

1089
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:30,000
Speaker 2: I mean Poyer has been serviceable, and I think his

1090
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 2: value has been just as good off the field, in

1091
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:38,400
Speaker 2: the meeting rooms, in the film rooms with the younger players.

1092
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:40,759
Speaker 2: You just heard Maxwell Harriston here in studio with us

1093
00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:44,799
Speaker 2: talk about how Poyer is constantly in his ear and

1094
00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:49,839
Speaker 2: Trey giving him pointers and tips not only on how

1095
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:52,640
Speaker 2: to watch film, but what part of the film to

1096
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:55,680
Speaker 2: really focus in on. Because Steve can speak to this

1097
00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:58,120
Speaker 2: better than I can. But if you're a young guy

1098
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:00,279
Speaker 2: that doesn't know how to watch film, you're just watching

1099
00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:02,439
Speaker 2: hours and hours of it. You go down a rabbit

1100
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:05,240
Speaker 2: hole real fast, and you're not being productive or efficient

1101
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:05,960
Speaker 2: in what you're doing.

1102
00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:07,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're not learning anything.

1103
00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:11,400
Speaker 2: So these guys have done a good job of streamlining

1104
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:15,040
Speaker 2: that process for these young players who are still learning

1105
00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:18,320
Speaker 2: what to look for, what to pick up on. There

1106
00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:21,160
Speaker 2: are a lot of nuances in film study that they

1107
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 2: just flat out don't know, and these older guys are

1108
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 2: showing them how to do it. There's value in that, yeah,

1109
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 2: beyond what ployer has given them on the field. I

1110
00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:32,240
Speaker 2: mean there are times where they're in a dime defense

1111
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:37,800
Speaker 2: and players essentially playing like a pseudo linebacker spot because

1112
00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:41,720
Speaker 2: there he hasn't lost a step. He's fast enough at

1113
00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:44,120
Speaker 2: the second level there to make plays for you, and

1114
00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 2: he has I mean, he was the leading tackler in

1115
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:46,520
Speaker 2: the game last week.

1116
00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:51,200
Speaker 4: So and I wo'd agree with you too. Bill turnovers

1117
00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:55,320
Speaker 4: in the crucial element of this. For the Bills. Without

1118
00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:57,360
Speaker 4: three turnovers in the last game, they don't I don't

1119
00:57:57,400 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 4: think they lose. You can make it. You can argue

1120
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:03,400
Speaker 4: with if you want. That's not my belief. I thought

1121
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:05,440
Speaker 4: it was the key thing about that game, and that's

1122
00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:08,120
Speaker 4: what was different than the four to oh start they

1123
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 4: got off to. They lost the turnover battle big time

1124
00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:17,840
Speaker 4: and they couldn't overcome it. I don't. I can't remember,

1125
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:21,480
Speaker 4: but I don't think the Patriots had any turnovers in

1126
00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:25,120
Speaker 4: that game. I can go back and look. But that's

1127
00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:28,960
Speaker 4: that's the thing I think for this club. The fewer

1128
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:34,280
Speaker 4: mistakes they make, the better, the harder they are to beat.

1129
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:37,120
Speaker 4: I know that's a given for most teams, and it

1130
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:41,720
Speaker 4: makes sense, but this Bills team is good enough so

1131
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,840
Speaker 4: that they almost have to help you beat them, particularly

1132
00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:47,520
Speaker 4: in this building. I don't know now the next you know,

1133
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 4: in Foxborough, maybe maybe you can help yourself a little more.

1134
00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:55,680
Speaker 4: But I think that's the crucial element of this whole thing.

1135
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:59,200
Speaker 4: If the Bills don't help you, you can't beat them.

1136
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:02,520
Speaker 4: And I think that's proven to be the truth. You

1137
00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:10,400
Speaker 4: go back, Josh had one interception and and for fumbles

1138
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 4: for the team, they had fumbles, lost lost too. And

1139
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 4: then yeah, we lost two fumbles, had one interception, they

1140
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:21,160
Speaker 4: fumbled too and lost one of them. So we were

1141
00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:24,760
Speaker 4: minus two on the turnover ratio the last time they won.

1142
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:27,000
Speaker 4: And that's you think about how important that was in

1143
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:31,000
Speaker 4: this Cincinnati game this last weekend. You gotta win that,

1144
00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:33,320
Speaker 4: you gotta protect the football. And I was talking to

1145
00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:34,880
Speaker 4: Brown and one of the things you know, it's getting

1146
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:39,120
Speaker 4: late in the year. Guys are getting beat up. James

1147
00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:41,800
Speaker 4: Cooks had two fumbles each of the last two games,

1148
00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:44,760
Speaker 4: and he's you know, maybe that's a sign that he

1149
00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:48,640
Speaker 4: needs a lightning his load, you know, maybe during the week,

1150
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 4: maybe on game day. Whatever. It's something to think about.

1151
00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:55,440
Speaker 4: So it's late in the year and stuff like that happens.

1152
00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:58,080
Speaker 3: Can't have it happen now.

1153
00:59:58,160 --> 00:59:59,600
Speaker 4: You cannot have it happen now.

1154
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,080
Speaker 3: Go to Butcher on the east side next. What's up butcher?

1155
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,560
Speaker 17: Gentlemen, thanks so much for taking my call. I love MSG,

1156
01:00:05,720 --> 01:00:08,720
Speaker 17: love wgr and to all the fans listen and watch

1157
01:00:08,760 --> 01:00:11,040
Speaker 17: his beautyl Charlotte, each and every one of you. I'm

1158
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:13,640
Speaker 17: gonna get right to it. It's a couple of things,

1159
01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:17,680
Speaker 17: and it's really important to me, more than a lot

1160
01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:21,040
Speaker 17: of things that I normally call and say. Our reason

1161
01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:25,600
Speaker 17: being is we're in crucial desperation right now and beon

1162
01:00:25,720 --> 01:00:29,520
Speaker 17: time to play. We experimented all year. We had injuries,

1163
01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:33,520
Speaker 17: we plugged and plugged in and took out. But now

1164
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:37,120
Speaker 17: we had an opportunity really see something that we tweaked

1165
01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:40,160
Speaker 17: that really worked. We found out against the Steelers that

1166
01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:45,800
Speaker 17: our base for three with shock Williams and Milano actually works.

1167
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 17: We found out that Max Harriston can be a press

1168
01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:53,120
Speaker 17: corner along with Benford. They're both fresh corners, they both

1169
01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 17: can get off and they both could be successful. We

1170
01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:58,160
Speaker 17: found out that that four to three base can really

1171
01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:03,160
Speaker 17: work offense league. We found out last week doing a

1172
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:06,160
Speaker 17: crucial point of the game when they came and Burro,

1173
01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:10,520
Speaker 17: when Burrows came to score and Brownie, Steve, you and I,

1174
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:13,440
Speaker 17: we've been saying this all year that sometime you want

1175
01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:17,280
Speaker 17: to say up tempo, no huddle type of scenario. Josh

1176
01:01:17,360 --> 01:01:19,320
Speaker 17: Allen took the ball and went in sixty seconds and

1177
01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:22,080
Speaker 17: took it right back down the throat real quick. Everybody

1178
01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:25,480
Speaker 17: touched the ball, from the shafer to shavers to everybody.

1179
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:28,720
Speaker 17: Everybody touched the ball to score. That that's really at

1180
01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:31,120
Speaker 17: this between, at this point in our game, at this

1181
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:33,720
Speaker 17: point in the season, ready going to the playoffs to

1182
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:36,400
Speaker 17: try to get a chip. That's our offense. Not saying

1183
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:38,840
Speaker 17: one hundred percent, but that should be our offense at

1184
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:42,240
Speaker 17: least forty five one hundred. Defensively, let's go with the

1185
01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:44,440
Speaker 17: base four to three against them. They played, We came

1186
01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:46,200
Speaker 17: against New England, we played at.

1187
01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:46,880
Speaker 4: Four, two five.

1188
01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:49,720
Speaker 17: All Diggs did was just running down to the stop,

1189
01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:52,080
Speaker 17: falling a little slot catch with digging dolls and guy

1190
01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:54,640
Speaker 17: jack yards. This time, you guys had the right guy

1191
01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 17: on this. Earlier today you had Max Harriston on there.

1192
01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:00,520
Speaker 17: If I'm mcdermoty and stick this, Tavan Johns said, lost

1193
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:03,120
Speaker 17: a little step last week. If I'm Sean, if i

1194
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:05,080
Speaker 17: I'm if I'm the dermak and what I'm gonna do

1195
01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:07,640
Speaker 17: is I'm gonna put Max every time Diggs in the game,

1196
01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,720
Speaker 17: I'm putting Max on his head up one on one.

1197
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,720
Speaker 17: Dick he can hold. He can hold digs to to

1198
01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:16,320
Speaker 17: I'm not gonna say to no catches, but he can

1199
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:18,440
Speaker 17: hold his own against Diggs, and Benferer can hold his

1200
01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 17: own against someone else. We're gonna have to play that

1201
01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:23,640
Speaker 17: bass for you. I really believe everybody's going to be

1202
01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:27,160
Speaker 17: ready to go Sunday. I really believe with Ed Oliver

1203
01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:29,800
Speaker 17: at that four to three, with that, with our defensive

1204
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:32,160
Speaker 17: line like that like we have, we might have something

1205
01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:35,320
Speaker 17: that the Houston that the Houston Texas have if you

1206
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:37,880
Speaker 17: put pressure them. So that's really Adam into me and

1207
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:40,360
Speaker 17: I really had to call to say that because it's

1208
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:42,920
Speaker 17: really we're done twinked all year. I really believe we

1209
01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:45,680
Speaker 17: found the ingredients down offensive, d T top to run

1210
01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:48,480
Speaker 17: and to get points quicker and just jump on them

1211
01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:50,560
Speaker 17: fast and left them then run that football. But thanks

1212
01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:51,640
Speaker 17: so much taking one call.

1213
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:52,760
Speaker 13: I love both of you.

1214
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:54,240
Speaker 3: All right, thanks, thanks, But.

1215
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:59,400
Speaker 4: Their their propensity has been to put Benford on the

1216
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:02,880
Speaker 4: number one for their opponent instead of Max. So but

1217
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:05,680
Speaker 4: I get what you're saying. You're right, Shack has made

1218
01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:07,640
Speaker 4: a big difference in their ability to stop the run,

1219
01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:09,520
Speaker 4: and for two weeks they have done a nice job

1220
01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:13,880
Speaker 4: of it and gotten they got the the Bengals into

1221
01:03:13,920 --> 01:03:17,000
Speaker 4: third and long consistently. The Bengals, you know, is the

1222
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:18,800
Speaker 4: big story of that game. They were seven of eight

1223
01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:22,360
Speaker 4: on third down, no matter what the distance was. They

1224
01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:24,040
Speaker 4: were seven of eight in the first half, and they

1225
01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:26,040
Speaker 4: were really good in the second half as well and overall.

1226
01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:30,400
Speaker 4: So Diggs is their number one guy, no question about it.

1227
01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:37,240
Speaker 4: Hunter Henry is next, and then lo and behold it's

1228
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:41,520
Speaker 4: mac Hollins is the third guy. So they spread it

1229
01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:45,760
Speaker 4: around and they're gonna they're gonna pick their guy. I

1230
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:48,800
Speaker 4: get what you're saying about having somebody take away digs.

1231
01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:51,760
Speaker 4: Maybe they can if certainly, if Max can do it,

1232
01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:54,560
Speaker 4: they believe Benford can do it as well, because he's

1233
01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:56,440
Speaker 4: the guy they lean on to do it more.

1234
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,240
Speaker 3: Than Max the last seven games.

1235
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:00,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you can imagine that's probably gonna to be

1236
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:06,200
Speaker 4: what's happening, It's gonna be Uh, you're right, I agree

1237
01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:09,520
Speaker 4: with you. Their defense has started to play a little better,

1238
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:14,720
Speaker 4: even with their best players on the sideline, at least

1239
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:18,760
Speaker 4: on the front, and they've gotten a really nice year

1240
01:04:18,800 --> 01:04:23,440
Speaker 4: out of Dion Walker. TJ. Sanders has proven more versatile

1241
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:27,400
Speaker 4: than they thought he would be. And I think he's

1242
01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:31,480
Speaker 4: more versatile than they wish they needed him to be, right, So,

1243
01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:36,520
Speaker 4: I mean he was out there playing end. So yeah,

1244
01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:39,320
Speaker 4: they they're up against it up on the defensive front.

1245
01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:43,200
Speaker 4: Bosa's presence would help. I don't know that he's gonna

1246
01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:46,640
Speaker 4: be back, I really don't, So we'll wait and see.

1247
01:04:48,120 --> 01:04:50,160
Speaker 4: But I agree with you. The defense is starting to

1248
01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:54,880
Speaker 4: settle anyway, let alone play better, and Shaq was a

1249
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:57,440
Speaker 4: nick component of that. We'll see if we'll see what

1250
01:04:57,440 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 4: they do with the linebackers and the dbs and whether

1251
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:02,080
Speaker 4: who's on the field who's off. But that's you're right,

1252
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 4: their defensive started to play better.

1253
01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:06,440
Speaker 2: And the reason that you know Butcher is concerned is

1254
01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:09,800
Speaker 2: because he watched diggsco ten for in the last game.

1255
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:13,160
Speaker 2: Yeah against them, I get it. I think they'll have

1256
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:16,760
Speaker 2: a better plan this time around. Uh, let's go to

1257
01:05:17,160 --> 01:05:18,600
Speaker 2: Mike in Buffalo next.

1258
01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:19,160
Speaker 3: What's up Mike?

1259
01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:21,800
Speaker 6: Hi, boys, how are you good?

1260
01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:22,120
Speaker 4: Good?

1261
01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:23,720
Speaker 8: All right?

1262
01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:27,560
Speaker 6: Well, here's my here's my take on the Buffalo Bills.

1263
01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:28,320
Speaker 6: Real simple.

1264
01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:29,760
Speaker 3: Uh.

1265
01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 6: They have not played a complete game all year long.

1266
01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,680
Speaker 6: I said this last year. I'll say it again this year.

1267
01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:41,520
Speaker 6: They've They've been walking into the game, sleepwalking for the

1268
01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 6: most part. Now, last week's game was a little different.

1269
01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:50,360
Speaker 6: But now I think because you're coming into the end

1270
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:53,600
Speaker 6: of the season, which is when they start to play football,

1271
01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:57,560
Speaker 6: and uh, I think they're gonna wipe the rest of

1272
01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:00,440
Speaker 6: these teams out. I don't think there's a team in

1273
01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:04,360
Speaker 6: the ASC that is going to beat the Bills in

1274
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:07,640
Speaker 6: the in the playoffs period. The only way that the

1275
01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:11,000
Speaker 6: Bills are going to lose is if Josh Allen gets hurt.

1276
01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:14,360
Speaker 6: If he does not get hurt right now, there's a

1277
01:06:14,680 --> 01:06:17,360
Speaker 6: simple way to get into the Super Bowl. And the

1278
01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:20,120
Speaker 6: other thing I want to say is I predicted this

1279
01:06:20,520 --> 01:06:23,000
Speaker 6: at the beginning of the year, and that your two

1280
01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:26,120
Speaker 6: pundits decided that they were going to hang up on

1281
01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:28,840
Speaker 6: me because they didn't like what I said. I said

1282
01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:34,640
Speaker 6: that the Baltimore Ravens and the Kansas City Chiefs, we're

1283
01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:37,200
Speaker 6: not going to make the playoffs. And I said that

1284
01:06:37,680 --> 01:06:42,760
Speaker 6: Lamar Jackson was going to get hurt because he's too reckless.

1285
01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:44,720
Speaker 6: And Mike Chow didn't like that.

1286
01:06:45,720 --> 01:06:49,040
Speaker 16: So but that's what I got to say, So I

1287
01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:50,640
Speaker 16: hang up to listen to you, all.

1288
01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:51,440
Speaker 3: Right, thanks, Mike.

1289
01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:54,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not going to pretend to know what pundits

1290
01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:58,160
Speaker 2: or predictions or things that you said back in September

1291
01:06:58,160 --> 01:06:59,400
Speaker 2: if you didn't even tell us.

1292
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:03,120
Speaker 4: So yeah, I'll I'll say yeah, and I'll say this's Mike.

1293
01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:07,640
Speaker 4: Just Mike, don't take your victory lap just yet. But

1294
01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:09,640
Speaker 4: it's good. Looks good for you. Now you were you

1295
01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:11,919
Speaker 4: were right about a lot of that stuff you said.

1296
01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:15,280
Speaker 4: If indeed you told those guys that, uh, but don't

1297
01:07:15,520 --> 01:07:18,800
Speaker 4: take your victory lap yet. The Bills still have to

1298
01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:22,040
Speaker 4: pay the new play the New England Patriots, and like

1299
01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:24,280
Speaker 4: you said, wipe the field with him. We'll see.

1300
01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:27,160
Speaker 3: Let's go to Eddie on a sell. What's up, Eddie?

1301
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:30,320
Speaker 12: Hey, how you doing? Happy holidays?

1302
01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:31,520
Speaker 3: Everybody? Sure, do you too?

1303
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:33,200
Speaker 14: Uh?

1304
01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:37,800
Speaker 12: I called three weeks ago and uh was crawling about

1305
01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:40,680
Speaker 12: running the ball. Well, they did it against the Steelers,

1306
01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:43,120
Speaker 12: and they did it against Cincinnati, and they gotta do

1307
01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:44,400
Speaker 12: it again Sunday.

1308
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:46,919
Speaker 15: Run Run, run, Yeah.

1309
01:07:47,040 --> 01:07:50,280
Speaker 12: Two hundred and forty nine yards against the Steelers, one

1310
01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:52,640
Speaker 12: hundred and eighty three yards against Cincinnati.

1311
01:07:53,480 --> 01:07:54,600
Speaker 15: If the quarterback on.

1312
01:07:54,640 --> 01:07:57,440
Speaker 12: The other team is not on the field, they can't score.

1313
01:07:57,720 --> 01:07:59,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, It's it's a little easier said than done though,

1314
01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:01,200
Speaker 2: against this defense.

1315
01:08:01,640 --> 01:08:06,320
Speaker 12: But it's a lot easier to block them for running

1316
01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:09,400
Speaker 12: than it is to back up for passing.

1317
01:08:10,040 --> 01:08:12,800
Speaker 3: Well, I yeah, I won't disagreement.

1318
01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:13,160
Speaker 17: That old fashion.

1319
01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:17,760
Speaker 12: I know I'm old fashioned, but it just proves the

1320
01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:20,280
Speaker 12: putting the puttings in the in the in the pot,

1321
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:25,719
Speaker 12: you know, and Jim Kelly feels the same way to anyway,

1322
01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:26,519
Speaker 12: have a good day.

1323
01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:27,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, thanks Eddie perfect.

1324
01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:31,200
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say this, this is a different run

1325
01:08:31,280 --> 01:08:34,320
Speaker 2: defense that they're playing, probably the best that they've seen

1326
01:08:34,360 --> 01:08:37,240
Speaker 2: short of the Texans. They're number two in the league.

1327
01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:40,120
Speaker 2: They were number two in Week five. It's the only

1328
01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:43,959
Speaker 2: team that held James Cook to under seventy five yards

1329
01:08:44,560 --> 01:08:48,880
Speaker 2: total from scrimmage this season the only defense, uh and

1330
01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:50,960
Speaker 2: they only give up eighty seven yards per game on

1331
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:51,439
Speaker 2: the ground.

1332
01:08:51,720 --> 01:08:53,200
Speaker 3: It's a really good run front.

1333
01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:57,240
Speaker 2: It's not saying that the Bills can't have success, but Eddie,

1334
01:08:57,280 --> 01:08:58,960
Speaker 2: the way you're talking, just run the ball.

1335
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:01,360
Speaker 3: It's a lot more more complicated than that.

1336
01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:04,960
Speaker 2: Against this group, and so I think the Bills are

1337
01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:07,799
Speaker 2: going to have to come up with a creative run scheme.

1338
01:09:08,320 --> 01:09:08,639
Speaker 3: Be great.

1339
01:09:08,640 --> 01:09:10,519
Speaker 2: If Spencer Brown can get back in the lineup, that

1340
01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:13,000
Speaker 2: would certainly help. But he was in the lineup back

1341
01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:14,680
Speaker 2: in Week five. They had all the bullets in the

1342
01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:18,360
Speaker 2: chamber and running the ball was difficult against this group.

1343
01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:22,439
Speaker 4: Here's the overall probably. I know most people know this,

1344
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:25,400
Speaker 4: and I hope I'm not boring them with the simplicities,

1345
01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:29,759
Speaker 4: but yes, as important as it is to run the ball,

1346
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:31,519
Speaker 4: and if you can run the ball, the other team

1347
01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:33,439
Speaker 4: feels defenseless because they can't stop you at all. If

1348
01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:36,639
Speaker 4: you can get first down, you know, first down, second down,

1349
01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:40,160
Speaker 4: first down on three runs, first down, second down, first

1350
01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:44,000
Speaker 4: down on three runs or two runs, they're not going

1351
01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:47,240
Speaker 4: to stop. So I get that the problem is this,

1352
01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:54,080
Speaker 4: it's also very simple to stop the run. It's it's

1353
01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:56,720
Speaker 4: not complicated. It doesn't mean it's easy, but it's it's

1354
01:09:56,760 --> 01:10:05,880
Speaker 4: physically demanding, but it's simple and simple sometimes wins the day.

1355
01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:10,639
Speaker 4: It's easy to get behind the sticks when one guy

1356
01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:13,920
Speaker 4: makes a play, and you know, if your run game

1357
01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:17,240
Speaker 4: doesn't work, then you're into the problem of all right, well,

1358
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:24,600
Speaker 4: how how much of the run game can we abandon?

1359
01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:27,920
Speaker 4: How fast do we abandon the run game? Where's that line?

1360
01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:30,880
Speaker 4: When do we stop running the football when it's third

1361
01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:34,519
Speaker 4: and nine, third and eleven. Well, if you're gonna if

1362
01:10:34,560 --> 01:10:37,080
Speaker 4: you're only gonna stop running the ball on third and

1363
01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:40,800
Speaker 4: eight plus, you're gonna be you're gonna be looking at

1364
01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:45,160
Speaker 4: fourth and three a lot, fourth and two, fourth and four,

1365
01:10:46,120 --> 01:10:48,600
Speaker 4: and then you know you're kicking the ball away. So

1366
01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:52,599
Speaker 4: as great as it sounds, and as easy as it sounds,

1367
01:10:52,680 --> 01:10:54,719
Speaker 4: to just hand the ball off and let them push

1368
01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:57,719
Speaker 4: get four yards, hand the ball off, let them push,

1369
01:10:57,760 --> 01:11:00,960
Speaker 4: get another three and a half yards, what do you

1370
01:11:01,040 --> 01:11:03,160
Speaker 4: do when you're tackled from no gain and now it's

1371
01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:09,800
Speaker 4: fourth and two and a half. That's a problem. That's

1372
01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:16,240
Speaker 4: a problem, and it's that's it now that's the problem.

1373
01:11:16,720 --> 01:11:19,120
Speaker 4: It's easy to get behind the sticks when you hand

1374
01:11:19,160 --> 01:11:21,599
Speaker 4: it off and bad things happen.

1375
01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:24,400
Speaker 3: Break time for us here more of your phone calls.

1376
01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:25,000

01:11:50,920 --> 01:11:53,439
Speaker 2: we can, and then we'll pivot to the Josh Allen

1385
01:11:53,479 --> 01:11:55,879
Speaker 2: press conference after practice.

1386
01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:58,160
Speaker 3: Here it's a John in Buffalo. Next. What's up John?

1387
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:01,360
Speaker 16: Hey?

1388
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:05,680
Speaker 15: Hello, yep, oh you can hear me. Okay, just a

1389
01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,240
Speaker 15: few things. I'm a long time Bills fan. I'm such

1390
01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:11,120
Speaker 15: an old Bills fan. I don't even consider myself hire

1391
01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:16,320
Speaker 15: them mafia. I'm just a hardcore Bills fan, the twelfth Man,

1392
01:12:17,800 --> 01:12:20,000
Speaker 15: twelfth Man kind of guy. Yeah, you know, my first

1393
01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:22,559
Speaker 15: game was at the Rock Pile o J Simpson's rookie season,

1394
01:12:24,160 --> 01:12:27,600
Speaker 15: and I just wanted to say, first of all, to

1395
01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:29,679
Speaker 15: Steve Tasker, what a joy it was watching you play

1396
01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:32,080
Speaker 15: special teams and even when you've got to be a

1397
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:34,720
Speaker 15: receiver a little bit. You were great at that too,

1398
01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:37,639
Speaker 15: And I would give the Special Teams award to this

1399
01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:42,280
Speaker 15: team season to Prater. I think maybe people forget that

1400
01:12:42,320 --> 01:12:44,360
Speaker 15: he wasn't even on the team till the first game,

1401
01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:47,200
Speaker 15: a few days before the first game, and I don't know,

1402
01:12:47,320 --> 01:12:49,800
Speaker 15: they don't really mention what's up with Bass at all.

1403
01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:53,439
Speaker 15: But Prader's been a real solid boost to our team.

1404
01:12:53,439 --> 01:12:55,120
Speaker 15: And I was wonder, Steve, if you had a team

1405
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:57,479
Speaker 15: out there in the NFL you would say had the

1406
01:12:57,520 --> 01:12:59,800
Speaker 15: best special teams or really seems to be a step

1407
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:01,519
Speaker 15: about other teams.

1408
01:13:01,560 --> 01:13:03,360
Speaker 4: I don't. I got to tell you, I don't. I

1409
01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:06,799
Speaker 4: I focused so much on this team with the Bills

1410
01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:09,160
Speaker 4: and what they're doing week week, and I'll say this thought,

1411
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:11,080
Speaker 4: it seems like a little bit of a roller coaster

1412
01:13:11,160 --> 01:13:13,200
Speaker 4: ride for all these teams. You've got a couple of

1413
01:13:13,240 --> 01:13:17,640
Speaker 4: guys returning kicks really well for the Patriots. Yeah, so

1414
01:13:17,680 --> 01:13:19,360
Speaker 4: there's some of that going on. You know, you have

1415
01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:21,400
Speaker 4: a couple of guys doing individual things, but as teams,

1416
01:13:21,439 --> 01:13:23,200
Speaker 4: I don't know that there's a lot of teams.

1417
01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:26,920
Speaker 15: Doing teams Like a lot of blocking going on too,

1418
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:31,320
Speaker 15: blocking and kicks fucking field goals. Yeah, certain team will

1419
01:13:31,360 --> 01:13:32,880
Speaker 15: seem to get hot at pass, but yeah, I don't

1420
01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:34,679
Speaker 15: think there's any one team you would say is really

1421
01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:40,160
Speaker 15: dominant in it. And then when when you talk about

1422
01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:44,680
Speaker 15: a play action pass, you know, which is basically a

1423
01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:48,280
Speaker 15: run action pass. I think Jnfo I thought this for

1424
01:13:48,320 --> 01:13:52,080
Speaker 15: a while that you almost need a pass pass action run.

1425
01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:56,080
Speaker 15: I think in the modern NFL you have to prove

1426
01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:58,760
Speaker 15: you can pass the ball before the other team might

1427
01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:01,400
Speaker 15: like you run it.

1428
01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:03,439
Speaker 2: It's kind of a chicken in the egg kind of thing, John,

1429
01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:05,120
Speaker 2: But yeah, I know what you're saying.

1430
01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:09,760
Speaker 3: It's a chicken in the egg. I think you could

1431
01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:10,760
Speaker 3: argue that either way.

1432
01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:17,120
Speaker 2: I think most people, most coaches prefer to run the

1433
01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:20,240
Speaker 2: ball effectively because it's deemed a safer play. You put

1434
01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:23,559
Speaker 2: the ball at less risk, and if you can stay

1435
01:14:23,560 --> 01:14:25,920
Speaker 2: on schedule that way to give you more options in

1436
01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:28,840
Speaker 2: your passing attack, you lean in that direction. And that's

1437
01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:31,080
Speaker 2: clearly the direction that the Bills lean in because they're

1438
01:14:31,160 --> 01:14:33,200
Speaker 2: running on forty nine percent of their offensive plays.

1439
01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:36,559
Speaker 4: Anyway, the statistics tell you, I mean throwing the football,

1440
01:14:36,600 --> 01:14:40,560
Speaker 4: you just move the ball better, because particularly at the

1441
01:14:40,640 --> 01:14:44,679
Speaker 4: level these guys play at, you throw the football, even

1442
01:14:44,720 --> 01:14:50,000
Speaker 4: the smallest throw. If Josh catches a shotgun snap and

1443
01:14:50,040 --> 01:14:53,559
Speaker 4: then shovels it two hand forward to Shakir walk running through,

1444
01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:57,760
Speaker 4: that counts as a pass. But even so, I mean,

1445
01:14:57,800 --> 01:15:01,120
Speaker 4: you saw the touchdown to kin Kaid this last week.

1446
01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:03,280
Speaker 4: Josh dross back and whips it on a on a

1447
01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:06,719
Speaker 4: tall slant, and it's looked. There's nothing that looks easier

1448
01:15:06,760 --> 01:15:13,599
Speaker 4: than that. It's just statistically proven over and over again

1449
01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:17,280
Speaker 4: that throwing the football is just the best way to

1450
01:15:17,360 --> 01:15:22,040
Speaker 4: chew up yards, and coaches know it, and they see

1451
01:15:22,080 --> 01:15:24,519
Speaker 4: these guys do it in practice. They watch these guys

1452
01:15:24,840 --> 01:15:27,400
Speaker 4: practice it, and they're very good at it. And it

1453
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:35,000
Speaker 4: takes a superlative physical play and anticipation and like aggression

1454
01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:38,120
Speaker 4: for all that stuff for a defense to stop that.

1455
01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:42,040
Speaker 4: I mean, they got to like almost anticipate it to

1456
01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:44,800
Speaker 4: get on top of some of these passing plays. And

1457
01:15:44,880 --> 01:15:46,799
Speaker 4: I know people are sick and tired of the bubble

1458
01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:50,400
Speaker 4: screen and all that, but man, oh man, you get

1459
01:15:50,439 --> 01:15:52,960
Speaker 4: three guys out there and the other day and kin

1460
01:15:53,040 --> 01:15:55,479
Speaker 4: Kaid's in a slot, in a tight slot, a little bit,

1461
01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:59,559
Speaker 4: a little bit split Shakirs on the line, and then

1462
01:15:59,600 --> 01:16:03,080
Speaker 4: I think it's I think it's key on outside of that.

1463
01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:07,040
Speaker 4: So there's a trip set, Kinkaid drops back and goes

1464
01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:08,840
Speaker 4: toward the sideline. They throw it to him in the

1465
01:16:08,880 --> 01:16:11,280
Speaker 4: two other guy's block and it's it's a fourteen yard

1466
01:16:11,360 --> 01:16:16,320
Speaker 4: pass and it's just that easy. So the trick is

1467
01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:21,280
Speaker 4: to move the football really effectively, almost scary fast, and

1468
01:16:21,640 --> 01:16:26,599
Speaker 4: never put it at risk. Right, That's what these little

1469
01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:29,600
Speaker 4: short passes and screen passes do. Certainly, once in a

1470
01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:35,760
Speaker 4: while they get blown up like Josh, Like Tie Tie

1471
01:16:35,880 --> 01:16:38,599
Speaker 4: is Ty Johnson standing out there, Josh whips misses him

1472
01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:43,120
Speaker 4: by five feet from fifteen feet so and Josh, Josh

1473
01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:46,120
Speaker 4: throws his arm up, going what was that? Right? So

1474
01:16:46,640 --> 01:16:49,720
Speaker 4: you get a little of that, but it's just that's

1475
01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:53,000
Speaker 4: how good these guys are. You can put the ball

1476
01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:54,920
Speaker 4: at risk through the air and it's not really at risk,

1477
01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:57,680
Speaker 4: you know what I mean. And that's what they thrive on.

1478
01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:02,839
Speaker 2: Let's pivot now to the post practice podium where Josh

1479
01:17:02,840 --> 01:17:04,719
Speaker 2: Allen is addressing the media.

1480
01:17:05,439 --> 01:17:09,240
Speaker 18: When you look at guest Boston turnover battle I think

1481
01:17:09,360 --> 01:17:11,880
Speaker 18: five times this year, and three of them have been out.

1482
01:17:12,320 --> 01:17:12,760
Speaker 10: Something like that.

1483
01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:13,719
Speaker 4: I don't know that exactly.

1484
01:17:14,280 --> 01:17:15,559
Speaker 3: How important is it to take.

1485
01:17:15,400 --> 01:17:16,880
Speaker 4: Care of the ball on the road.

1486
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:21,080
Speaker 19: And what goes into that, Yeah, I mean it's it's

1487
01:17:21,120 --> 01:17:23,360
Speaker 19: the utmost importance making sure that we're holding on the

1488
01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:26,840
Speaker 19: football making good decisions with it. I think what goes

1489
01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:32,520
Speaker 19: into that is making sure that you know, we're practicing

1490
01:17:32,640 --> 01:17:36,080
Speaker 19: extremely well, extremely hard, and whatever plays that we're putting in,

1491
01:17:36,120 --> 01:17:39,720
Speaker 19: we feel comfortable with. Guys know where they're at. I

1492
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:42,920
Speaker 19: understand where guys are gonna be, and ultimately comes down

1493
01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:45,800
Speaker 19: to me making the best decision for the football team

1494
01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:48,040
Speaker 19: and when the balls in my hands, I gotta make

1495
01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:49,000
Speaker 19: sure that I'm remembering that.

1496
01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:52,080
Speaker 15: What lessons can you take from that first game though.

1497
01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:55,800
Speaker 19: And again they're they're a really good football team. You know,

1498
01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:57,880
Speaker 19: if we go back and we can say we turn

1499
01:17:57,920 --> 01:18:02,000
Speaker 19: it over I think three times that game, which you

1500
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:05,160
Speaker 19: know we don't, You're not gonna win many football games

1501
01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:08,840
Speaker 19: doing that. So yeah, I mean it's we got to

1502
01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:11,600
Speaker 19: have all hands on deck, and we need everybody this

1503
01:18:11,680 --> 01:18:14,280
Speaker 19: week that if you.

1504
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:15,840
Speaker 20: Were younger in your career and we talked to you

1505
01:18:15,960 --> 01:18:19,759
Speaker 20: about not focusing on the quarterback matchup, thinking and playing

1506
01:18:19,760 --> 01:18:22,479
Speaker 20: the other team's defense, not you know, the other quarterback.

1507
01:18:22,479 --> 01:18:25,559
Speaker 20: When you recall some of those conversations took away from us.

1508
01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:25,800
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1509
01:18:25,800 --> 01:18:28,000
Speaker 19: Absolutely, I think it's just going out there and executing

1510
01:18:28,479 --> 01:18:31,439
Speaker 19: to my best ability. Obviously, Drake is playing at an

1511
01:18:31,479 --> 01:18:34,439
Speaker 19: extremely high level right now. You know, he's he's extremely

1512
01:18:34,439 --> 01:18:37,880
Speaker 19: fun to watch, you know, and he's obviously put their

1513
01:18:37,920 --> 01:18:39,840
Speaker 19: team in a really good position and help get them

1514
01:18:39,880 --> 01:18:43,400
Speaker 19: to where they're at. So we on the offensive side

1515
01:18:43,439 --> 01:18:45,320
Speaker 19: can't focus on what their offense is doing, but we

1516
01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:49,719
Speaker 19: have to know that again, each drive is very important

1517
01:18:49,720 --> 01:18:52,040
Speaker 19: and points are at a premium, especially against this defense

1518
01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:54,600
Speaker 19: are doing a good job of keeping teams too, you know,

1519
01:18:55,640 --> 01:19:00,719
Speaker 19: under twenty ish points throughout the entire season. So again

1520
01:19:00,960 --> 01:19:03,360
Speaker 19: it starts with how we're practicing and then going in

1521
01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:04,839
Speaker 19: there and executing as well as Again.

1522
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:08,800
Speaker 20: Four of your maybe best eatistic games this year come

1523
01:19:08,840 --> 01:19:12,200
Speaker 20: against the Ravens, the Chiefs, the Bengals and Baker and

1524
01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:14,720
Speaker 20: the Bucks. Uh we're all E League quarterbacks on of

1525
01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:17,200
Speaker 20: the other team. So if there's something about those games

1526
01:19:17,200 --> 01:19:19,040
Speaker 20: where you know who the guy is on the other

1527
01:19:19,080 --> 01:19:21,440
Speaker 20: side that you get even extra.

1528
01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:24,000
Speaker 19: Amped up for, I don't think so. I mean I

1529
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:27,880
Speaker 19: think again it's it's an a privilege to go against

1530
01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:30,360
Speaker 19: you know, some of these guys in NFL and to

1531
01:19:30,479 --> 01:19:33,360
Speaker 19: really even just play in the league, and you know,

1532
01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:37,080
Speaker 19: just making sure that we understand what the other side

1533
01:19:37,479 --> 01:19:40,439
Speaker 19: is capable of. And again, like I said earlier points,

1534
01:19:40,439 --> 01:19:42,160
Speaker 19: sort of premium, so making sure that we're holding one

1535
01:19:42,240 --> 01:19:44,800
Speaker 19: the football and not given their offense short fields because

1536
01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:46,240
Speaker 19: they're doing a great job with that.

1537
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:50,280
Speaker 15: One of the past two games, you're getting the sense

1538
01:19:50,320 --> 01:19:53,479
Speaker 15: that you can catch something on that offense.

1539
01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:56,519
Speaker 3: Let fact yet any but just something.

1540
01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:00,760
Speaker 19: I mean, I think if we we don't turn the

1541
01:20:00,800 --> 01:20:03,400
Speaker 19: ball over a pretty good, pretty good offense. So I

1542
01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:06,400
Speaker 19: think again that's that's the most importance of making sure,

1543
01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:08,880
Speaker 19: yeah we're holding on the football, making sure that we're

1544
01:20:09,160 --> 01:20:12,519
Speaker 19: taking an advantage of the the drills that we have

1545
01:20:12,600 --> 01:20:14,960
Speaker 19: in place, and of our ball security drills, and again

1546
01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:18,360
Speaker 19: just making good decisions and allowing us to have every

1547
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:19,800
Speaker 19: chance possible to win a football game.

1548
01:20:20,200 --> 01:20:24,760
Speaker 21: Sure you think your process would give granted clubs. I

1549
01:20:24,880 --> 01:20:27,160
Speaker 21: know he has a cab a chance to chef, but

1550
01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:30,840
Speaker 21: before now, where are you with that? And help watch Kenny,

1551
01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:32,160
Speaker 21: help the maybe down the stah.

1552
01:20:32,320 --> 01:20:34,479
Speaker 19: Yeah, I think we're in a really good spot. He

1553
01:20:34,600 --> 01:20:37,880
Speaker 19: works his tail off at practice and he's obviously been

1554
01:20:37,880 --> 01:20:41,639
Speaker 19: around the league for a very long time. And that's

1555
01:20:41,880 --> 01:20:45,320
Speaker 19: it's no u no mistake. You know, you can tell

1556
01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:47,920
Speaker 19: by his habits of why he's been around the league

1557
01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:49,600
Speaker 19: and played at such a high level for such a

1558
01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:52,880
Speaker 19: long time. And it's no different here. You know, he's

1559
01:20:52,960 --> 01:20:55,760
Speaker 19: he's been a true professional. He's always in the wide

1560
01:20:55,800 --> 01:20:57,760
Speaker 19: receiver room in the playbook, and then we come back

1561
01:20:57,760 --> 01:21:01,160
Speaker 19: to practice, he's freaking flying around. So yeah, I feel

1562
01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:03,240
Speaker 19: very very good, and I think comfort was just going

1563
01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:04,000
Speaker 19: to continue to grow.

1564
01:21:04,920 --> 01:21:08,040
Speaker 10: Last guy touchdown, yeah, blocking.

1565
01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:10,000
Speaker 19: Yeah, he's again he just does everything the right way,

1566
01:21:10,040 --> 01:21:12,679
Speaker 19: and you know, we're just happy to have him here.

1567
01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:16,920
Speaker 20: Amongst the receivers there with Cooks, but Seavers has seen

1568
01:21:17,040 --> 01:21:20,800
Speaker 20: this an example of really all year, but just as

1569
01:21:20,880 --> 01:21:22,880
Speaker 20: his teammates and the tree that he's been on in

1570
01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:25,360
Speaker 20: the role that he's kind of carved out for himself here,

1571
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,240
Speaker 20: what's it been like for you to watch a guy

1572
01:21:27,320 --> 01:21:28,120
Speaker 20: like that have success?

1573
01:21:28,400 --> 01:21:31,400
Speaker 19: That's so awesome. Again, I know I said this after

1574
01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:34,000
Speaker 19: I'm not sure which game, but the game that he

1575
01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:36,920
Speaker 19: had a nice little game for himself, and uh, he's

1576
01:21:36,960 --> 01:21:39,400
Speaker 19: earned every opportunity that he's he's gotten and he's taken

1577
01:21:39,439 --> 01:21:41,440
Speaker 19: advantage of a lot of a lot of those opportunities,

1578
01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:43,719
Speaker 19: and again the willingness to go in there and block

1579
01:21:44,680 --> 01:21:46,720
Speaker 19: and not really get much of the credit. But you

1580
01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:50,200
Speaker 19: see him, you know, in that Khalil touchdown, celebrate like

1581
01:21:50,439 --> 01:21:52,760
Speaker 19: he just scored right, Like it just means so much

1582
01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:54,760
Speaker 19: to him. You know, you can feel the love that

1583
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:58,000
Speaker 19: he has for his teammates, you know, and you it's

1584
01:21:58,640 --> 01:22:00,240
Speaker 19: you just continue to root for a guy like that.

1585
01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:03,200
Speaker 4: Earlier this team, how do.

1586
01:22:03,200 --> 01:22:06,600
Speaker 18: You feel like this group has progressed since it was

1587
01:22:06,680 --> 01:22:08,560
Speaker 18: early October now a couple of weeks later that you

1588
01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:10,040
Speaker 18: feel like this team is kind of much.

1589
01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:15,040
Speaker 19: Our side again. I think we've been putting a lot

1590
01:22:15,040 --> 01:22:19,519
Speaker 19: of different positions. We've learned a lot again from I

1591
01:22:19,600 --> 01:22:22,280
Speaker 19: think you learn more from the losses, and we feel

1592
01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:24,439
Speaker 19: like we've kind of been battle tested in a sense.

1593
01:22:24,520 --> 01:22:27,080
Speaker 19: But at the end of the day, you know, comes

1594
01:22:27,120 --> 01:22:29,679
Speaker 19: down to who executes better on game day. It doesn't

1595
01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:32,960
Speaker 19: matter what plays are called. And I think, you know,

1596
01:22:33,040 --> 01:22:34,840
Speaker 19: we we have this mindset of it's not the plays,

1597
01:22:34,880 --> 01:22:36,960
Speaker 19: it's the players, and to go out there and and

1598
01:22:37,080 --> 01:22:38,720
Speaker 19: play for each other and again just put our best

1599
01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:40,880
Speaker 19: foot forward and give everything we got for each other.

1600
01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:44,960
Speaker 2: Each some veteran quarterbacks kind of took you under their

1601
01:22:45,040 --> 01:22:48,080
Speaker 2: weighing and metric you how much of you enjoyed being

1602
01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:49,000
Speaker 2: able to kind of pay that.

1603
01:22:49,120 --> 01:22:51,120
Speaker 3: Forward that some lot other guys.

1604
01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:54,040
Speaker 19: I mean, I wouldn't sit here and say that I've

1605
01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:54,640
Speaker 19: done it to.

1606
01:22:56,720 --> 01:22:57,599
Speaker 3: A lot of guys.

1607
01:22:59,160 --> 01:23:01,040
Speaker 19: You know, I wouldn't even sit here and say have

1608
01:23:01,120 --> 01:23:03,400
Speaker 19: mentored Drake. You know, it's just we've been around each other,

1609
01:23:03,479 --> 01:23:06,880
Speaker 19: and you know, most of the time we weren't even

1610
01:23:06,880 --> 01:23:10,920
Speaker 19: talking football. It was just kind of life stuff. And yeah,

1611
01:23:10,960 --> 01:23:13,280
Speaker 19: but I mean, any any opportunity I can to help somebody,

1612
01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:14,960
Speaker 19: you know, I'm willing to do that.

1613
01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:19,000
Speaker 18: As m great White, You guys, your perspective on just

1614
01:23:19,200 --> 01:23:22,720
Speaker 18: like consisting to see as play so early industry, and

1615
01:23:22,800 --> 01:23:24,840
Speaker 18: he's obviously talent to be able to look at that

1616
01:23:25,240 --> 01:23:26,360
Speaker 18: as consistently as.

1617
01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:30,759
Speaker 19: At Yeah, he's he's playing like a vet veteran quarterback,

1618
01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:34,240
Speaker 19: and he's seeing things extremely well. He plays at a

1619
01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:38,280
Speaker 19: at a great pace. Things looks like things have slowed

1620
01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:42,639
Speaker 19: down for him, which again we we hate to see that, right,

1621
01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:45,639
Speaker 19: But you know, I'm happy for how well he's playing

1622
01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:47,720
Speaker 19: because you know, he is a he's a great human being.

1623
01:23:47,840 --> 01:23:51,000
Speaker 19: On top of being a football player, and you know,

1624
01:23:51,120 --> 01:23:53,560
Speaker 19: we just gotta gotta find a way to to to

1625
01:23:53,680 --> 01:23:56,560
Speaker 19: win on Sunday. Relationship, how does you establish have a

1626
01:23:56,600 --> 01:23:59,800
Speaker 19: relationship same agents. So we've just kind of been around

1627
01:23:59,840 --> 01:24:00,680
Speaker 19: this spots and.

1628
01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:06,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, it seems like you've been showing emotion the last

1629
01:24:06,960 --> 01:24:07,439
Speaker 4: four weeks.

1630
01:24:07,439 --> 01:24:10,120
Speaker 22: I know, you don't think he'll probably about your reaction,

1631
01:24:10,280 --> 01:24:12,680
Speaker 22: Budd in the Tampa Bay game, the Pittsburgh game, and

1632
01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:15,560
Speaker 22: then last week. Is that just coming out natural or

1633
01:24:15,640 --> 01:24:17,040
Speaker 22: is that the time of the year and feeling that

1634
01:24:17,200 --> 01:24:18,800
Speaker 22: that's what your team needs to kind of spark and.

1635
01:24:18,800 --> 01:24:19,479
Speaker 20: Show more emotion.

1636
01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:21,280
Speaker 19: No, I mean it's just kind of natural, just kind

1637
01:24:21,320 --> 01:24:24,720
Speaker 19: of flow of the game and just going out there

1638
01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:25,519
Speaker 19: and just trying to compete.

1639
01:24:26,360 --> 01:24:28,280
Speaker 3: That's when you heard the Philip Rivers who's coming back.

1640
01:24:28,320 --> 01:24:30,760
Speaker 4: He was the last player who played off against you

1641
01:24:31,080 --> 01:24:32,599
Speaker 4: back five years ago. It was just your thoughts.

1642
01:24:32,640 --> 01:24:37,960
Speaker 19: Pretty surprised, a little a little surprised, but again, Phillips

1643
01:24:39,240 --> 01:24:41,760
Speaker 19: one of the greatest ever played the game. He's an

1644
01:24:41,840 --> 01:24:47,200
Speaker 19: unbelievable football player, smart as any quarterback really to play

1645
01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:50,200
Speaker 19: in this league. And you know, we'll see how it

1646
01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:52,240
Speaker 19: works out. I'm rooting for him though, because he's again

1647
01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:53,200
Speaker 19: another great human being.

1648
01:24:53,920 --> 01:24:54,400
Speaker 14: Josh, I know.

1649
01:24:54,520 --> 01:24:57,040
Speaker 20: Jenna asked about like how this team has been grafted

1650
01:24:57,080 --> 01:24:58,160
Speaker 20: this last from the days the teacha.

1651
01:24:58,360 --> 01:25:01,360
Speaker 4: Is there anything specific about how this offense has the

1652
01:25:01,400 --> 01:25:02,479
Speaker 4: rest like you thing.

1653
01:25:02,280 --> 01:25:04,840
Speaker 22: You guys have taken some steps, so is there anything

1654
01:25:05,080 --> 01:25:07,320
Speaker 22: it does specify, Bree that came back to your.

1655
01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:10,320
Speaker 19: Free I mean, I think we're getting a lot of

1656
01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:13,679
Speaker 19: people involved in the past game, and it's no secret

1657
01:25:13,960 --> 01:25:15,720
Speaker 19: away games. We have to be better in the past game.

1658
01:25:15,760 --> 01:25:20,360
Speaker 19: That starts with me, so again finding finding easier completions

1659
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:24,000
Speaker 19: and especially early in the game, maybe taking some stuff

1660
01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:27,040
Speaker 19: underneath if it's there, and just trying to again stay

1661
01:25:27,080 --> 01:25:29,240
Speaker 19: on task, stay stay in front of the sticks, and

1662
01:25:30,560 --> 01:25:32,040
Speaker 19: you know, end every driving a kick.

1663
01:25:33,040 --> 01:25:34,840
Speaker 3: Still a lesson to be born.

1664
01:25:35,960 --> 01:25:39,280
Speaker 15: What you think take away knowing the rivalry you have,

1665
01:25:39,479 --> 01:25:42,240
Speaker 15: you have to see so long they are on the.

1666
01:25:42,240 --> 01:25:44,000
Speaker 3: Brink, they put people on there.

1667
01:25:46,600 --> 01:25:48,519
Speaker 4: Is there being the lesson that came.

1668
01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:49,759
Speaker 3: To the back seen a stuff?

1669
01:25:50,760 --> 01:25:52,439
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean, I think it's just it. It doesn't

1670
01:25:52,439 --> 01:25:54,719
Speaker 19: really matter what you did last year or the year before.

1671
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:58,360
Speaker 19: Every year this league is different and you need to

1672
01:25:59,320 --> 01:26:02,200
Speaker 19: play your best every every week to give yourself a chance.

1673
01:26:02,240 --> 01:26:06,799
Speaker 19: And you know, I've been around long enough to understand

1674
01:26:06,840 --> 01:26:08,840
Speaker 19: though they're gonna they're gonna find a way to give

1675
01:26:08,880 --> 01:26:12,200
Speaker 19: it everything that they've gotten. You know, you can't count

1676
01:26:12,200 --> 01:26:14,960
Speaker 19: them out till the're out, I guess.

1677
01:26:16,080 --> 01:26:16,400
Speaker 3: All right.

1678

Speaker 2: me pretty much laid out at his press conference to

1685
01:26:47,720 --> 01:26:52,200
Speaker 2: rel Bernard, Spencer Brown, Joey Bosa, Joshua Palmer all limited

1686
01:26:53,240 --> 01:26:58,559
Speaker 2: not practicing today, Dawson Knox for personal reasons, and then

1687
01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:02,880
Speaker 2: everybody else was good to go. Joe Biscali, who covers

1688
01:27:02,920 --> 01:27:05,840
Speaker 2: the team for the Athletic is reporting that Spencer Brown,

1689
01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:08,160
Speaker 2: in interviews with the media, said he's good to go

1690
01:27:08,360 --> 01:27:10,519
Speaker 2: for Sunday against the Patriots. As you know, he's missed

1691
01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:13,040
Speaker 2: the last two games with a shoulder injury. So we'll

1692
01:27:13,080 --> 01:27:16,400
Speaker 2: see if that in fact comes to pass, which would mean,

1693
01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:19,000
Speaker 2: he'd probably be a full participant, if not tomorrow, certainly

1694
01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:25,439
Speaker 2: by Friday. So team improving, it's healthier going forward, hopefully

1695
01:27:25,560 --> 01:27:29,000
Speaker 2: at just the right time. You also had an interesting

1696
01:27:29,120 --> 01:27:31,400
Speaker 2: news note down from the NFL cons.

1716
01:28:17,600 --> 01:28:20,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Uh, Unfortunately we don't have a chance to get

1717
01:28:20,200 --> 01:28:21,840
Speaker 2: back on the phone lines here. We don't have enough

1718
01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:24,200
Speaker 2: time before the break, but we will quickly rip off

1719
01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:26,760
Speaker 2: some of your comments on the tweet sheet in terms

1720
01:28:26,800 --> 01:28:28,920
Speaker 2: of the biggest difference in this week's matchup with the

1721
01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:31,320
Speaker 2: Patriots compared to Week five. Tweets sheet brought to you

1722
01:28:31,400 --> 01:28:33,880
Speaker 2: by Corrigan Moving Systems, official equipment moving company of the

1723
01:28:33,880 --> 01:28:36,240
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills. Greg says, I believe that we have an

1724
01:28:36,280 --> 01:28:38,799
Speaker 2: identity now and we let Josh Allen out of the box.

1725
01:28:39,439 --> 01:28:41,840
Speaker 2: Lauren says their defense is not as good as ours.

1726
01:28:41,880 --> 01:28:45,240
Speaker 2: Has been better lately, aside from last week when they

1727
01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:48,000
Speaker 2: were slipping and sliding in the snow. Jim says, no,

1728
01:28:48,160 --> 01:28:51,840
Speaker 2: Milton Williams are back. Seven's getting swagger. I'm only worried

1729
01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:54,160
Speaker 2: that the Bills have been outscored over the entire season

1730
01:28:54,240 --> 01:28:56,400
Speaker 2: in the first half of games, and that is where

1731
01:28:56,920 --> 01:29:00,519
Speaker 2: the Patriots do their most damage. They have a greater

1732
01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:03,320
Speaker 2: points margin in the first half than they do in

1733
01:29:03,360 --> 01:29:06,040
Speaker 2: the second half of their games. Meanwhile, the Bills lead

1734
01:29:06,200 --> 01:29:10,240
Speaker 2: the league in second half point margin at plus ninety

1735
01:29:10,640 --> 01:29:14,840
Speaker 2: five by a wide margin. Rams are second best thanks

1736
01:29:14,880 --> 01:29:16,120
Speaker 2: the second half at plus sixty.

1737
01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:18,559
Speaker 4: The things that the Bills fans have been noticing about

1738
01:29:18,560 --> 01:29:21,000
Speaker 4: the defensive adjustments the Bills have made and also the

1739
01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:25,519
Speaker 4: offensive point output is true. You know what you're looking at.

1740
01:29:25,640 --> 01:29:28,160
Speaker 4: The Bills are killing it in the second half of

1741
01:29:28,240 --> 01:29:28,719
Speaker 4: these games.

1742
01:29:29,439 --> 01:29:32,040
Speaker 2: The Patriots are outscoring their opponents in the first half

1743
01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:38,080
Speaker 2: two ten to one thirty one, so they're about a

1744
01:29:38,120 --> 01:29:43,040
Speaker 2: plus seventy nine in the first half. Bills are a

1745
01:29:43,080 --> 01:29:45,479
Speaker 2: plus ninety five in the second half. Be interesting if

1746
01:29:45,479 --> 01:29:47,639
Speaker 2: the game follows that path as well.

1747
01:29:47,960 --> 01:29:48,639
Speaker 3: We shall see

1748
01:29:49,400 --> 01:29:52,000
Speaker 2: Maddi clab in for me tomorrow and Friday with Steve,

1749
01:29:52,520 --> 01:29:54,680
Speaker 2: so tune in tomorrow for them at one
