I you know, we usually 19 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: come in and we start talking about the show and 20 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,839 Speaker 1: about what we you know, we watched on Sports TV 21 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: last night and everything today it's Halloween. So we're talking 22 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: talking about candy, and we're talking about favorite candies, and 23 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: we're talking about yeah on the show and we're talking 24 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: about candy companies making a killing on Halloween. Well, here's 25 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:26,839 Speaker 1: the thing. First of all, it's like, wait, wait, wait, 26 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: is Halloween a a way that an industry hijacked a 27 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 1: holiday to make it their own? Like a candy industry, 28 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 1: certainly they've got a vested in it's like their Christmas time, right, 29 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I would imagine the beer industry also would 30 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 1: have some of the hijack kill bit. And think about 31 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: this though, it's one of the biggest party drinking I 32 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: saw a thing in a billboard coming through Buffalo last night. 33 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: Halloween's this second after Christmas, only Halloween in terms of 34 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 1: Americans spending. People spend like crazy on Halloween. Yeah. And 35 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: what about Aline's Day? Is that like the greeting card 36 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: people hijacked that? Yeah? And the candy people to this 37 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: is candy and beer, beer, Yeah desided like no no 38 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: disrespect intended. But even in Saint Patrick's Day? Yeah, what 39 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: do you mean no disrespect by your Irish I mean 40 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: Irish person like Murphy? I mean, you know what I mean, oh, 41 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: it's bigger than Saint Patrick's Day. First, Really that surprises me. Yeah, 42 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: it's huge. It's a huge time. That's just me huge holiday. 43 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,079 Speaker 1: And here's the thing. I don't want to spend all 44 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 1: show on this because I don't like Halloween that much. 45 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: I think it's a kid's holiday and I regret the 46 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 1: fact that adults have appropriated it as their own. It's 47 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: not an adult holiday. It's a kid's holiday. But beyond that, 48 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: I got issues hit so much for the old guy. Well, no, 49 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 1: it's a kid's holiday, it's not an adult thing. My 50 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,399 Speaker 1: wife goes out and gets the candy last night for today, 51 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: and it's all these little fun side and them looking 52 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: in their all fun But probably the greatest piece of 53 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: marketing genius of all time to minimize your product as 54 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 1: small as you can get it and say, let's call 55 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: it fun side.

A breakthrough last night my partner here, 98 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: Steve Tasker, compelled I think by the deep stirrings of pride, 99 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: national pride and remember what it was like to be 100 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: an American. Steve decided to watch at least some of 101 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: game seven of the World Series last night, right, you 102 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,919 Speaker 1: cannot ignore Game seven of the World I watched it. 103 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: I'll watched the last three hours of it, which amount 104 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: of four and a half innings. You're exaggerating, but I 105 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: know it went. I watched the end. I watched the 106 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: last four from the I think bottom of four through 107 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: the end. Yeah, which was the best part of the 108 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: game too. It turned out it was a really it was, 109 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: and I it was a It was a loud, raucous 110 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: baseball stadium, yeah, and it was.

I mean it was, you know, the end 132 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: of a long, long baseball season and a long long 133 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: game Game seven. None of my teams have ever won before. 134 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what to do. Yeah, rules barked back 135 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: at him.

And 140 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: it's Game seven. You cannot ignore Game seven of a 141 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: World Series. You cannot that even my wife said, oh, 142 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: it's a game seven.

And she 149 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: goes and she knew too, because you know, after all 150 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: these years of marriage and going through all those games 151 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: and stuff that we did, as she knows, it's the 152 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: end of a long grind. Yeah, particularly in baseball, talk 153 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: about a grind. You know, one hundred and sixty two 154 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: games in February and training was three two and a 155 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: half three week road trips where they go out and 156 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: don't come home. And it was a It was a 157 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: compelling game last night. It wasn't the greatest game of 158 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: all time, but a compelling game and a great broadcast. 159 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what UM say you on about Joe Buck. 160 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: He is the gold standard I think for play by 161 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: play broadcasters in this country football to a certain extent, 162 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: but certainly baseball. Joe Buck is great and his partner 163 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: on baseball. John Smoltz is the greatest color analyst for 164 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: any sport all time. For my money, Yeah, like him. 165 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: I was surprised at how little he spoke. Yeah you 166 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: know what I mean, he just he's and Joe, You're 167 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: so I'm you know, We're in football. We're so used 168 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: to hearing Joe Buck's voice. It's like right. Unfortunately he 169 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: has to work with Troy Ape, who kind of brings 170 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: him down a little bit. I tell you, can I 171 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: tell you one Joe Bucks story Bowl two years ago 172 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: ahead it was after maybe it's three years ago, after 173 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: the Indians Cubs World Series, which was great baseball, compelling baseball. 174 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,839 Speaker 1: And I watched all of that World Series. I only 175 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: watched last night's game and a little bit of others 176 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: this year. But I saw Joe bucket the Super Bowl 177 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 1: and he was all by himself, so I just wanted 178 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: to introduce myself. I had met him before talking and 179 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: I said, Joe, you guys want an Emmy yet? And 180 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: He's like, oh, thanks, no that yet. I mean, he 181 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: could not have been better, But I said, Joe, Um, 182 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: John Smoltz, how good is John Smoltson? He goes Murphy 183 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 1: want to call me, John John Smoltz approaches each game 184 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: like he's pitching for each team. So he's gone through 185 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: the lineups, he knows the ins and outs for for 186 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: every banner and the other team, and he goes through 187 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 1: it like here's what I'm gonna throw this guy. Here's 188 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: what I'm gonna throw that guy. And that's why I 189 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: think smolt is so good. And Joe Buck told me 190 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: he's he's amazing. The prep that uh, I think the 191 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 1: prep that John Smolts does, he's great. And he was 192 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: great last night. The broadcast is great, the camera work 193 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: is great. It's amazing. That's it's it was a great 194 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 1: scene there. Everybody that in Houston fans all dressed in 195 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: orange and their team dressed in orange jerseys trying to 196 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: do everything they could to push him over the top, 197 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: and they just they just couldn't hang on to do it. 198 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: They couldn't get enough offense going, and it was the 199 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: visiting team won again. Amazing. I gotta get one more 200 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: thing in and I did this last night before I 201 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: watched baseball and did a little homework on the Bills 202 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: and Washington while I watched Cleveland Cavaliers last night. Two 203 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: They're two and all at home, but I spent the 204 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: early portion of the evening late afternoon at the forty 205 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: three North event at Chase Buffalo Steve.

They have to hire Buffalo Ians and stay 211 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: in Buffalo for at least a year.

And I've been around this forty 222 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: three North group for the last four or five weeks now, 223 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: and the companies that apply and they get it down 224 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: to like thirteen or fifteen, then down to ten, and 225 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: then the eventual winners last night, the the imagination that 226 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: goes into developing these businesses blows you away. You know, 227 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: I like to think I'm a I'm not an idiot, 228 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: I'm not stupid. I'm fairly smart, I guess. But where 229 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 1: do these people get this imagination to say we need 230 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: this product or the market will support this service. You know, 231 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: it's just amazing what people will think of And I 232 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: really salute all of them, including the winners, but even 233 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: the runners up. Last night, you know, just an amazing 234 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: display of imagination. Yeah, I read it. It was not 235 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: display last nine to forty three. And it's interesting too 236 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:29,079 Speaker 1: because people, you know, creativity comes from having problems to solve, 237 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: and it's really interesting that people see a problem and 238 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: they attack it and try and solve it. And the 239 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: ways in which people come up with solutions is really 240 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: the fun part about looking at businesses like that and 241 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: watching people make it their dreams come true and pursuing 242 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: something they're passionate about, attacking some problem that they come 243 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: up with a novel idea or a novel way to 244 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: solve it and all of a sudden, they've got a 245 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: lifelong they've got their life's work. And it's so fun 246 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,599 Speaker 1: to see the creativity that's involved with it, you know. 247 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: And we're talking today, you know, I'm going down to Savannah, Georgia, 248 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: to Savannah College of Art and Design this weekend. That 249 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: it's full of creative people and to see the way 250 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: that they attack problems. There's a lot of fun to 251 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 1: be around. But yeah, congratulations of the winners of the 252 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: forty three North Award last night. I guess it's an 253 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: award a competition that is a competition, right, Oh yeah, 254 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: So congratulations. Then I'll be looking forward to seeing what 255 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: comes out of it in the business that begin because 256 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: and now the football and what you just said about, 257 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: you know, trying to solve problems. In the book we 258 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: have the author on Doug Ferrar, the Genius of Desperation. Remember, yeah, 259 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: that's how people solve problems football coaches, football people, What 260 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: are we gonna do? We can't run the ball. You 261 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: get desperate and you come up with something different. Anyway, 262 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 1: talk about a segue. This week's opponent. Back in the day, 263 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: former head coach Joe Gibbs had a big problem, and 264 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: the guy the problem's name was Lawrence Taylor, defensive outside 265 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,199 Speaker 1: linebacker for the New York Giants. They snapped the ball 266 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, Lawrence Taylors hitting their quarterback 267 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: in the back of the head. So they come up 268 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: with this new offense with three tight ends, a shift 269 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: and motion and movement type offense where before the snap 270 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: they're shifting. Remember they used to shift, shift again, shift 271 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: a third time, the change the strength, and then put 272 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: a guy in motion. All that was a response to 273 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: one great player, Lawrence Taylor, that they had to contend with, 274 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: and it became effective for other teams. In the end, 275 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: they ended up beating our team in the Super Bowl 276 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: Super Bowl twenty six in Minneapolis. Joe Gibbs did it 277 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: a couple of times with that team, so he won 278 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,719 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl with three different quarterbacks and it was 279 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: all because of his ability to solve problems. Be interesting 280 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: to see what problems. I want to see what problems 281 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: the Washington Redskins see with our team. Yeah, this week 282 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: I watched Washington last night. I watched the first half 283 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 1: and I watched about a game and a half of 284 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: there so far, another record they're one and seven. I 285 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: heard Brownie talk about their defense yesterday and even Clinton 286 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 1: porters yesterday. They've got some players. Now there's a reason 287 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: why they're one and seven. They're not playing well. I 288 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,839 Speaker 1: think quarterback is a big issue for them, and if 289 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: case Keenum doesn't play, it's an even bigger issue this 290 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,959 Speaker 1: week because I don't think Haskins is up to the job. 291 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: But we'll see. But they've got issues, but they also 292 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: have talent. One of my favorite players in last year's draft, 293 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: Montes Sweat, Remember I came back from them or the 294 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: Senior Bowl raven about him. He lines up and plays 295 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: and does exactly what you would think for a guy 296 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: that size, that length. I remember talking to you about 297 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: how long his arms and legs were, and he plays 298 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: that position. Ryan Carrigan on the other end, who's always 299 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: been one of my favorites, a good, good player, good 300 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: guys in the middle of that defense, decent linebackers. Troubles 301 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,479 Speaker 1: on the back end, but their front four is talented. Offensively, 302 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: they got Adrian Peterson on his way to the Hall 303 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: of Fame. Obviously, I think quarterbacks an issue. Receivers are okay. Look, 304 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: they are a very flawed team. Washington. They've got some 305 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: injuries they're trying to deal with, and they're flauded quarterback, 306 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: especially in questionable the quarterback this week. But I'm not 307 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: going to overlook these guys. Even at one and seven. 308 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: I think they could put up a fight. They've got talent. 309 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: I think the thing we came to, the conclusion we 310 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: came to yesterday, or the one my point that what 311 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: I'm kind of seeing from them is a lot of 312 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: talent that's not really playing that well right together. Certainly, 313 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: they've got guys smattered across their lineup that one guy 314 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: over here is gonna make a play, but it's not 315 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 1: gonna be tacked onto another play by another guy. They're 316 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 1: not gonna play well together, you know what I'm saying. 317 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: They they're just they haven't put it together as a 318 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: team like you'd like to see a team put be 319 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: put together. Um, it's like they're you know, it's a 320 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: bunch of guys playing that you know, just just don't 321 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: have a culture. You know, they don't have an identity 322 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: head coach and there, Yeah, exactly, And I think they're 323 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: I think they're all looking over their shoulder.

Twelve percent as you say you're most 372 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 1: scared around a tough are tougher schedule ahead. They have 373 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: the fourth easiest schedule remaining, but it does get tougher 374 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: right trip to the Dallas and Baltimore Ravens coming here, 375 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 1: for example. Four percent have something else in mind. Let's 376 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: talk about it. What scares you the most on this Halloween? 377 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: What scares you the most about the Bills the rest 378 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 1: of the season? Eight three fifty toll free one eight 379 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 1: eight eight by fifty two five fifty In the number 380 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 1: two call, what about you, Steve, I'm going pass game 381 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: because it's been a seven game issue now right. They 382 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: have not really been able to light it up in 383 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: the in the passing off, and yet they need that component. 384 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: It's part of its quarterback play. Part of it is 385 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,640 Speaker 1: new targets. Tyler Croft now into the lineup. We'll see 386 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: what he can add. He's already added a little bit. 387 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 1: But that's something that I get scared about most on 388 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 1: this Bills run. For me, it's the schedule. Really yeah, 389 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: I think he has some It's hard to beat anybody 390 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: in this league, let alone good teams, and you're gonna 391 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: have to play well and they're gonna have to play 392 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: better than they have in order to do it. And 393 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: you're gonna do it every week. And we know this 394 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: a week to week league. You can play good one week, 395 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 1: bad another, as we've seen the Bills does. We've seen 396 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: teams do against the Bills. It is. It's hard to win, 397 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:05,479 Speaker 1: and the schedule gets rougher. Cleveland Brown's a very talented 398 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: team who's struggling to put together a lot. Like the Redskins. 399 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: You know, they got some talent, although Cleveland's got way 400 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 1: more than the Redskins and probably a better quarterback. They're 401 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: they're more difficult to beat than the early half of 402 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: the season. Dallas, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, the Patriots. Those are four 403 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: teams that are really gonna be tough to beat. And 404 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 1: then it's been my thing all along. You know, when 405 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: you go down and win loss, win loss in you 406 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: and I. I'm at the eleven win plus place over 407 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: there to me between Dallas, Baltimore, Pittsburgh and New England. 408 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 1: Buffalo's got to win two of those games. They got 409 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 1: to win two of those games with those really good teams, 410 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: and of course then they got to sweep all those 411 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,679 Speaker 1: other teams. You know, they gotta beat the Jets and 412 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: the Dolphins twice and so, but they gotta beat two 413 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: of the four teams between Dallas, Baltimore, Pittsburgh and New England. 414 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: They could do it. I think they're good enough to 415 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 1: do it, but they gotta play well, and that that 416 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 1: schedule in the second half of the season is the 417 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: thing that worries me more than anything I liked. I'm 418 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 1: kind of like they were at the trade deadline. I'm 419 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 1: fine with the guys we got. I've seen him play 420 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 1: in flashes like they have. I think they're getting better. 421 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: I think they will get better. So I'm what scares 422 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: me because I know how hard they work, and I 423 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: know smart guys who work hard get better. Yea, that 424 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: doesn't frighten me. What frightens me is all the stuff 425 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: we can't control.

Um, you don't know what 474 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 1: trades were out there, and it's certainly stupid to go 475 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 1: out and just trade to make a trade. That's idiotic, 476 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,959 Speaker 1: particularly since you've built the team. You know, over the 477 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 1: course of the last form of every team at thirty two, 478 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: guys have put this team, their team together this offseason, 479 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 1: through training cramp, through all the you know, through the injuries, 480 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 1: through the free agency, and then just to go and 481 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 1: make a trade, to make a trade, No, you got 482 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 1: it's got to be the right deal. If the right 483 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: deal came along. You knew, you know, and you said 484 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: it yourself. The caller set itself. They're gonna make a 485 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: trade if the right deal comes along, But if it didn't, don't. Yeah, 486 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: it's that simple. Hey, let's go into practice. See what 487 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: they look like today. Chris Brown Bills inside or Buffalo 488 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: Bills dot Com and standing by inside the ad Pro 489 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: Sports Training Center where the Thursday practice is underway. Good afternoon, Chris, 490 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 1: I confess, I was hoping we'd get to see you 491 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 1: out in the weather today a little bit. I'm sorry. Yeah, 492 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: I'm glad we're inside here. It's raining pretty hard outside 493 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 1: and the weather is supposed to deteriorate rest of the week, 494 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: so they may very well be in here tomorrow again 495 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: if this kind of weather continues. The field's pretty sloppy 496 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: out there, not sure footing, so they got him inside here, 497 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: even though we know that coach isn't a huge fan 498 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: of practicing on this turf. No, and it's a little 499 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 1: bit tougher on the joints for the players. What a 500 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: survibe from practices or anything unusual going on? Guys practicing, 501 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 1: who's practicing, who's in, who's out? Yeah, Cody Ford and 502 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: Levi Wallace are both out of the red non contact jersey, 503 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,120 Speaker 1: so that's a good sign. Whether they're still limited. We'll 504 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 1: find out after practice when Thursday's updated report comes out. 505 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: I can tell you that when the offensive line was 506 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: lining up for walkthrough that it was Tie and Secky 507 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: with the starting unit at right tackle, not Cody Ford, 508 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: so I think that's an indication that he's still going 509 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: to be pretty limited today. And then Jack Lawson is 510 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: not here. He has an excused absence due to personal reasons. 511 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: I believe he had a child, so I believe that's 512 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 1: the reason why he's not a practice here today. So 513 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: congrats to him. Yeah, and Secky was out yesterday just 514 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: to rest date though, right, not his that's King issues 515 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 1: or anything. Okay, Hey, Chris, look, we all look for 516 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 1: answers how the Buffalo offense can get better, and you 517 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 1: wrote about at Buffalo Bills dot Com one way it 518 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 1: could happen, and that's a continued development in progress made 519 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: by the free agent tight end. They signed Tyler Croft 520 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 1: only two catches last Sunday, but I thought they were 521 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: two meaningful, kind of eye opening plays. This guy might 522 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: be a factor in their offensive improvement. Huh. Yeah. I 523 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: think it's an element that we're still waiting to see 524 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,239 Speaker 1: just exactly what it can be for this offense. But 525 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any mistake as to why they 526 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,919 Speaker 1: signed him. It's because they needed a weapon approven weapon 527 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: in the passing game. And yes, I know he was 528 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: largely a number two tight end in Cincinnati behind Tyler Eifford. 529 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: But you know, when he did get the opportunity to start, 530 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: when Eifford missed almost the entire season in twenty seventeen, 531 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: he delivered. He had forty two catches for almost four 532 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: hundred yards and seven touchdowns. You know, in an offense 533 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,880 Speaker 1: that clearly goes through aj Green in the passing game, 534 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 1: or at least had in the past. So I think 535 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: they believe if he can get to that level here 536 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 1: in the time that's left now, how much will that 537 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: balance out between him and maybe Dawson Knox. I think 538 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: that could be largely determined based on who looks better 539 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: in practice during the given week, because coach McDermott still 540 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: maintains that you earn the time you get on the 541 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,880 Speaker 1: field on Sundays. But I think Croft is probably Option 542 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: one at the tight end position for this passing game. 543 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: And it was pretty eye opening for me to hear 544 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: Josh Allen say he has complete trust in Tyler Croft 545 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: in terms of being a route runner. And I talked 546 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: to Tyler yesterday and I kind of shed some light 547 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: on this in the story that I wrote about Croft 548 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,719 Speaker 1: and how he is coming on as an emerging weapon 549 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 1: in this offense. Croft says he not only talks to 550 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: Josh at practice about what he's seeing from the defense 551 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 1: or in the last two games what he's seeing from 552 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 1: the defense so they can on a collaborate and get 553 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: on the same page. He actually goes over practice in 554 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 1: game tape with Josh, saying, maybe not the entire game, 555 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: but certain plays and stuff. What did you see on 556 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: this route when you targeted me. It's very clear that 557 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 1: Tyler is concerned about the time he missed in the 558 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,719 Speaker 1: spring with the fractured foot and in training camp, and 559 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: it's clear he's trying to make up for that lost 560 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: time to shorten the learning curve in terms of developing 561 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 1: a rapport with Josh on the field during games. You know, 562 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 1: peep fans who developed an affinity for Dawson Knox and 563 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: late preseason and early regular season, there's nothing to be 564 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,959 Speaker 1: worried about there. They are on multiple tight end offense 565 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 1: right Knox got plenty of snaps this past week, forty 566 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 1: five percent of the offensive snaps and even Lee Smiths 567 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: was in on like a third of the snaps. They'll 568 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: use three tight ends a lot and will continue to 569 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 1: do so, I believe, Yeah, and I believe that as 570 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: this offense continues to unfold, develop move forward, that I 571 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if we see Dawson Knox and Tyler 572 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: Croft detached as part of some spread looks. So even 573 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 1: though in the book it'll go down as twelve personnel 574 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: with one back and two tight ends, you could very 575 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 1: well have a spread look with two wide receivers out 576 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 1: wide and then those two tight ends detached in kind 577 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: of a hybrid type slot double slot look, and then 578 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 1: who knows, they may even motion the running back out 579 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 1: of the backfield and go empty. So I think those 580 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: are just some of the options that are at Brian 581 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: Dable's disposal to use in a given week if he 582 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: likes the matchups against a given opponent. Well, you look 583 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: back at the weeks one and two, and the Bills 584 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 1: did a lot in Week one where they brought a 585 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: bunch of guys in and then broke the formation, change 586 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: the strength of the formation. They did a lot of 587 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: motion pre snap, and they did a lot of like 588 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: big tight ends lined up wide, small wide receivers lined 589 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: up close and tight and bunch formations. They moved guys around. 590 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: They really made it difficult to mind specific guys in 591 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: the formations. Tyler Croft is just one more way that 592 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: they can do that, particularly since he has that receiving 593 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: element like a Dawson Knox does to get down the 594 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,479 Speaker 1: field right. And I think they want to have another 595 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: guy that can work the middle of the field with 596 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley, and we saw elements of that in last 597 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: week's game plan with Tyler Croft because he was in 598 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: three of his four targets, he was targeted over the middle, 599 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: so the big twenty yarder was out on the right 600 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: side of the field near the near sideline for the Bills, 601 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: and I kind of foresee him working in between the 602 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: numbers more often than not to be a second level 603 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 1: target for Josh Allen with Cole Beasley running more of 604 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: the underneath type stuff. Chris Brown, Bills Insider, Buffalo Bills 605 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: dot Com on the sidelines at practice inside the and 606 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 1: Pro Sports Training Centers the Bills are getting their Thursday 607 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: workout in. We talk a lot about answers for this offense, 608 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: and here's one for you. Devin Singletary, the motor who 609 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: clearly you know he got a lot of snaps and 610 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 1: not a lot of touches this past week. But there 611 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: I'm guessing here, I'm going to throw this out there. 612 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: I bet there were at least a half a dozen, 613 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: maybe more situations where the bills of split Devin Singletary 614 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: out White as as a receiver. I think more of 615 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: that is going to be coming too. As a matter 616 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: of fact, Chris, what do you think? I hope so. Yeah, 617 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: I'd like to see a lot more of him because 618 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: I think he can be a difference maker for this offense. 619 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 1: I still am not sure that the fan base has 620 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: a full handle on what he is capable of, just 621 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 1: because they haven't seen as much of him as maybe 622 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: we have in the practice setting or in the training 623 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 1: camp setting. And that's not a knock on them, but 624 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 1: to give them the full picture, I don't think they've 625 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: seen the full picture of what he can deliver. And 626 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: I know they're fans that even though they haven't seen 627 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: a lot of him, they've seen enough of them to 628 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: know they want to see more. Yeah, that's not the 629 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: fans fault, you know, let's start using them. It's mid 630 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: season here exactly, so I think they've got to give 631 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: him a little more rope, give him a little more opportunity, 632 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: and I think will be pleasantly surprised in the production 633 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: they get out of him, if in fact they do that. 634 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: So it's interesting to me that last year twenty eighteen, 635 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: on defense, the Bills were not shy at all about 636 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: putting a ton of youth on the field, be it rookie, 637 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 1: be its second year, be it guys without a lot 638 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: of game experience. They threw him out on the field 639 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: and put him in the deep end to the pool. 640 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: We're halfway through the season, as you pointed out, Murph, 641 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,479 Speaker 1: it's time to throw Devin Singletary in the deep end 642 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: to the pool. Yes, and see if he can swim 643 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 1: with everything that's handed. Yes. Yeah, But it's also point 644 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: like last year, they had no other choice. It was 645 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: time to move on. They were two and seven at 646 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: one point last year and they wanted to find out 647 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 1: about some guys. This is a much different atmosphere at 648 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: five and two headed into the week eight of the season. 649 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: There's no reason to hurry it, particularly when they don't 650 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: if they don't need him to win game. Now, you 651 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: can make the argument they really needed him last week. 652 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 1: He got eight touches in the second half last week, 653 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: as opposed to one in the first half. So when 654 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: that game got out of hand, Devin Singletary got a 655 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: lot of touches. And I think what it happens is 656 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: there's they don't want to unfurl him completely until they 657 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: need to, and when they get into a spot where 658 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: he can help. I'm gonna really disagree with me too. 659 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: Let me go first. I got a reason to disagree. 660 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: They average nineteen points scored per game. They're with the 661 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 1: twenty third ranked offense. Let's go. It's mid season. Go ahead, Chris, 662 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 1: I'm sorry interrupting. Yeah, I mean he's he's a guy 663 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: that I said I believe can be a difference maker 664 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: and for an offense that desperately needs to score more points. 665 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: When he's been given an opportunity, he's delivered. He's had touchdowns. 666 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 1: He's only got one receiving and one rushing due to 667 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: lack of time with the ball in his hands and 668 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: because he missed four games. But in the brief times 669 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: that he's had the ball in his hands, he's been 670 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 1: extraordinarily productive. So give it to him more and see 671 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: if he gives you more production. If he doesn't and 672 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 1: he shows he can't handle it or he's missing assignments, 673 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 1: that's one thing. But we haven't seen that yet, So 674 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: put more on his plate. Let him sink or swim 675 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: and see where it goes. But I think people are 676 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: going to be playn't surprised. And I think he is 677 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: going to deliver for this offense, and for an offense 678 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 1: that needs more points. Give it to the guy that 679 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: can give you more points in certain situations. As evidence 680 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 1: by last week's game and what he did there. Yeah, 681 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 1: he's played in He's played in three and a half games, 682 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: if you take the last half or whatever it was 683 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 1: in the Giants came out. He's only got twenty nine touches. 684 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: Yeah that and man, oh man, you know you love 685 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 1: eight last week. Yeah it's not enough. And you know, 686 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: outside of John Brown and Cole Beasley, who's starting to 687 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: pick up some steam here, especially in the red area 688 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: the last two games, you really don't have super dynamic 689 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: players that are going to make a defense look bad. 690 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: I think Devin Singletary has the capability of doing that. Yes, 691 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 1: you have your your bread and butter players like a 692 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: Frank Gore or somebody you know, like John Brown is 693 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: going to get you first down on third down. But 694 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 1: I think Devin Singletary has the capability of being dynamic 695 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: in this offense, and I think he should be utilized more. Chris, 696 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: So let me get you we're thinking about, you know, 697 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 1: where are the offense and weapons? Where are the weaponry 698 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 1: coming from? And this is down the depth chart a 699 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: little bit. But I wonder what you think goes into 700 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: the calculation of Robert Foster or ISAAIH McKenzie. How they 701 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 1: make that determination who's up this week, who plays this week, 702 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 1: and what this guy can do for our offense that 703 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,959 Speaker 1: this guy might do better. What do you think? Yeah, well, 704 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 1: I think it hinges on game plan and matchups. I 705 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 1: think if they feel that they're playing against a slower 706 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: defense at the second level, then I think it's a 707 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 1: mackenzie game because they can use some of those jet 708 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: sweeps and get him out on the flank to bend 709 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,319 Speaker 1: the corner and get yards for them that way in 710 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,800 Speaker 1: what is considered a high percentage play because you're essentially 711 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 1: handing it to him behind the line of scrimmage. Whereas 712 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 1: if you feel you've got a secondary that can be compromised, 713 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,440 Speaker 1: maybe it's a Robert Foster game because he can get 714 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: behind the defense a little bit more effectively, and his 715 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: size allows him to make play deep down the sideline, 716 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 1: where I think that's a tougher play for Isaiah mackenzie 717 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: to make, just by his stature more than anything else. 718 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 1: And just taking a peek here today at practice. You know, 719 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: we've seen Robert Foster getting a lot of reps early 720 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 1: in practice with special teams, and we know he has 721 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: a role there now. So if he's playing with the 722 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: first special teams unit, could it be a sign that 723 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: he'll be up on Sunday. We'll have to wait and see. 724 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,400 Speaker 1: One of the frustrating things I think for fans is 725 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: that you see Robert Foster out there. You see we 726 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 1: saw Robert Foster's second half of last year and do 727 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 1: the things that kept him on the squad and made 728 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: people intrigued by his talent. And then we also see 729 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 1: Isaiah McKenzie doing the jet sweeps and doing some things 730 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: explosive plays on the ground game. But then even though 731 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: whichever one of those guys is active, they're only getting 732 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,720 Speaker 1: four or five snaps a game. Offensively, they're not getting 733 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 1: on the field that much. Even when they're active, they're 734 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,320 Speaker 1: more of a safety valve, depth kind of thing, and 735 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 1: there are special teams weapons. So I think a lot 736 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: of fans are frustrated by what they perceive is I 737 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:07,400 Speaker 1: don't know, what do you think. Is it a lack 738 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 1: of the desire to try for the big play, to 739 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: try the deep ball, or you know, why is it 740 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,360 Speaker 1: that you know, fans are frustrated by the lack of 741 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:21,839 Speaker 1: use of Isaiah McKenzie and Robert Foster. I just think 742 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 1: it's a it's a reliability thing. It's clear to me 743 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: that they feel they can trust John Brown and Cole 744 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 1: Beasley chiefly to desive to deliver them positive plays in 745 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,359 Speaker 1: the passing game, and for the most part they have. 746 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,840 Speaker 1: And so what happens is you go down. It's a 747 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: trickle down effect. So that means less opportunity for the 748 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:42,839 Speaker 1: guys who are a little further back on the depth chart. 749 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: And so now what you have in the scope of 750 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: a specific game plan, if you have McKenzie up that week, 751 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 1: there's a small package of plays that you'll turn to 752 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: where McKenzie is on the field and he's probably going 753 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 1: to get the football. And by the same token, Robert 754 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 1: Foster falls into that categor glory as well, where yes, 755 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 1: we want to take maybe three deep shots in this game, 756 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 1: and when we do, we're gonna have Robert Foster on 757 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 1: the field because we feel he's one of the best 758 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 1: guys at winning deep and getting behind defenses. They just 759 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: haven't hit on those where they've made as much of 760 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 1: an impact, say, as they have with McKenzie, which, as 761 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 1: I said earlier, is a higher percentage play an easier 762 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 1: one to execute at the outset at least. Talking about 763 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 1: Chris Brown Bills Inside from Buffalo Bills dot Com, he's 764 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 1: on the sidelines as the Bills have their practice started 765 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: getting set for a Sunday's game against the against Washington. 766 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: You know, we've tiptoed all around the offense, Chris, but 767 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,240 Speaker 1: we've got to get to the main man, Josh Allen. 768 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: And look, I love Josh and I think he's going 769 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,439 Speaker 1: to be a successful quarterback here for a long time. 770 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 1: But he's he's got to play better, quite frankly, and 771 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:44,399 Speaker 1: it's got to start soon. You know, we're at mid 772 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 1: season again, right and I think the ball security issues 773 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 1: have reared its ugly head again. Unfortunately for him, got 774 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: a lot of I mean three fumbles last week. He 775 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 1: fortunately only lost one of them, but even that's too many. 776 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 1: So you know, I think what you have is a 777 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:03,919 Speaker 1: guy that's got to make a concerted effort to hold 778 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 1: on to the football. I think his decision making on 779 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 1: the whole has improved in terms of what to do 780 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: with the ball when he's back to pass, but ball security, 781 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,239 Speaker 1: you know, resurfaced as an issue, so he's got to 782 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: get that corrected. I think it's more than that I 783 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 1: want to. I want to. I want to know, at 784 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 1: least feel like he's seeing everything he needs to see. 785 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:26,239 Speaker 1: And that that's hard to you know, watch a game 786 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: as a spectator and determined, but you know what I mean, 787 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 1: I want to make sure he's not missing the opportunities downfield. 788 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 1: And sometimes yeah, and and I know you and I 789 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 1: talked about this earlier in the week. There were times 790 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: in the game last week where the offensive line, to 791 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: their credit, gave him a nice clean pocket and plenty 792 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,919 Speaker 1: of time to survey the field, and he was still 793 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,879 Speaker 1: patting the ball a little bit at times, and there 794 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: were certain things that he missed and maybe his progression 795 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:54,319 Speaker 1: reads didn't allow him to see some things that were 796 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:58,360 Speaker 1: there for the taking. Tyler Croft's corner out a perfect example. 797 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,479 Speaker 1: But I think his progressions took him the other way 798 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 1: to scan the field left to right, and Croft was 799 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 1: on his right and had won the route immediately. So 800 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 1: there are certain things at work that we just don't 801 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: know about because we don't know the true exes and 802 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:15,880 Speaker 1: o's of a given play. But I think ball security 803 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 1: is at the top of the list for him, and 804 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 1: then second after that is maybe improving the rate of 805 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 1: making the right call. And even Josh told us this 806 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: last week when I wrote a story about how he's 807 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 1: improving in some of his pre snap recognition skills, which 808 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: he undoubtedly is. You can debate to what degree he's 809 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: improving in that area, but he is improving. And the 810 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 1: first thing he said was, I know there's still things 811 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 1: out there that I have not seen that are gonna 812 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 1: cross me up, and he's just gonna have to improvise 813 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 1: until he masters those elements. And that's the maturation of 814 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 1: a young quarterback. And I still think we have to 815 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:58,919 Speaker 1: all remember, fans and you know, media analysts alike, that 816 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,799 Speaker 1: he's still on at track. He's not at the top 817 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 1: of the mountain yet, He's still climbing to where he 818 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 1: wants to be as a proven quarterback. That more often 819 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,879 Speaker 1: than not is going to win on given Sundays when 820 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:14,280 Speaker 1: going against a defense that can get complex or exotic. 821 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 1: I want it now, thanks Brownie. I know what I want, 822 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,959 Speaker 1: and I want it now. Thanks Chris. You got it, guys, 823 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 1: Chris Brown he's on the sidelines at practice, you know 824 00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 1: what I mean about. I'll be patient as anybody with him, 825 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: but I just want to see a little more progress, 826 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: just a little more as far as h Yes, ball 827 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 1: security is key, he only has. He's got two turnovers 828 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 1: in the last three games. Though, fix it, he might argue, 829 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 1: haven't we fixed it? He might. You could argue that 830 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 1: no fumbled three times, lost one, but you can't fumble it, 831 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: and we did. He has kind of, you know, lately, 832 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 1: knocked out the interceptions, which is a plus. And I 833 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 1: think the frustrating thing to and I trust this is happening. 834 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 1: And even though I'm saying it, when you see these 835 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: guys improve, These quarterbacks improved, like his like his awareness 836 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 1: about what play and what protection, what he's looking at 837 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 1: defensively pre snap, where to go with the ball, where 838 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 1: to take his eyes right at the snap on this 839 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,840 Speaker 1: play against this defense? Do I look here or against 840 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: this defense over here against a different defensive front. My 841 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: eyes go here. First. There's a lot of complex mind 842 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 1: gymnastics that he has to go through pre snap and 843 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,400 Speaker 1: after the snap. That happened very quickly. Now, having said that, 844 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 1: we all see that he didn't throw bad interceptions. We 845 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:24,799 Speaker 1: can all see that when he doesn't cough the ball 846 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 1: up and all of that stuff. We can all see 847 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,280 Speaker 1: when he slides instead of taking the hit, or runs 848 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 1: out of bounds instead of taking a hit. We can 849 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 1: all see that when he gets into a little trouble, 850 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 1: nothing's to throw it away rather than try and complete 851 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: a pass. All that stuff's easy to see. And I think, hopefully, 852 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 1: and this is where I get to my point. Hopefully, 853 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 1: some of the improvement that he's making now is stuff 854 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:46,760 Speaker 1: that we're never gonna see that Brian day Ball sees. 855 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: Brian day Ball has been picking up on, they've been 856 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 1: coaching him up. It's all that stuff about where his 857 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: eyes go after the snap, all this mental stuff that 858 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,839 Speaker 1: will never know about. But maybe that's some of where 859 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,400 Speaker 1: the progress is happening out. He needs to keep progressing, 860 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 1: no question about it, But some of that stuff that 861 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:02,359 Speaker 1: we're going to hope that he progressed and we're never 862 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 1: gonna see We're just gonna see the results of it, 863 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:08,200 Speaker 1: and whether we attribute it to that or not is 864 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 1: going to be secondary to the fact that it's actually 865 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: going on. That's what you have to kind of hope 866 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 1: that he's going through. Now some of those improvements that 867 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: maybe aren't aren't evident to the naked eye. I look 868 00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 1: forward to that. We're going to take a bread get 869 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,320 Speaker 1: back to our question of the day on this Halloween? 870 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 1: What scared you the most about the Bills? For the 871 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:25,839 Speaker 1: rest of the season. We'll take your phone calls, read 872 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: some tweets when we return. One Bill's Live, presented by 873 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: Kalida Health Live from the Seneca Studio on Buffalo Bills Radio. 874 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:46,840 Speaker 1: Welcome back One Bill's Live, John Murphy, Steve Tasker, We 875 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 1: got Therma Thomas coming by, had one after practice, Tyler 876 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 1: Croft will actually being one forty five or two, plenty 877 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 1: of time for your thoughts on Halloween. What scared you 878 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: the most about the Bills on this Halloween twenty nineteen? 879 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 1: Let us know what you think. Let's get to a 880 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 1: call here, Ray in Newburgh, Newburgh, New York. Ray, Hello, Ray, Hey, 881 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,440 Speaker 1: how's it going good? Where are you. I'm in the 882 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,879 Speaker 1: Hudson Valley. Yeah, Newburgh, Okay, I know where that is? Good. 883 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 1: Thanks you tuning in then, thanks for for having me. 884 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,600 Speaker 1: I appreciate both of you guys. I listened to you 885 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 1: guys every day, and I listened to some of the 886 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:26,600 Speaker 1: idiot fans that we got. Well, it's not just a fan. 887 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 1: Sometimes I join in, I would admit wholeheartedly. Go ahead, 888 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,440 Speaker 1: go ahead, Ray, You've played the game, so you understand 889 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:37,839 Speaker 1: it better. Um, you know, we we we didn't need 890 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,320 Speaker 1: to trade for nobody. And I think our biggest problem 891 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: is that I believe and I don't know. There's no 892 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 1: continuity on offense every game that I've watched so far, 893 00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:51,839 Speaker 1: in these seven games, there's a different offensive group out there. 894 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 1: It's like our defense. We have our core guys. They 895 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 1: go out there, they know their jobs. Like Michael Hid 896 00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 1: was asked the question earlier this week and he he 897 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 1: specifically answered by saying, we are an attack defense. The 898 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: runs are gonna happen. Our jobs to slow him down. Yeah, 899 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: they know what they have to do. They go out 900 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 1: there and do it. Sean mcdermam is not changing his 901 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: defensive personnel group game to game and you shouldn't be 902 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,360 Speaker 1: doing that with our offensive. Ray, you may let me 903 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,600 Speaker 1: interrupt you here. You make a very interesting point, and 904 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,000 Speaker 1: I actually given us some thought, and I have yet 905 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 1: to hear anybody on the team, and with the last 906 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:29,360 Speaker 1: Tyler Croft say this offense is too complex or too difficult. 907 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 1: But there's a benefit to being multiple and complex. And 908 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 1: it's the opposite of when people say, well, our offense 909 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 1: is so predictable, Well, they're not predictable. And people who 910 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 1: call in and say play calling is brutal, they're predictable, 911 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 1: They're wrong. They are not predictable. They have a lot 912 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 1: of different offensive looks, Steve and a lot of different 913 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,839 Speaker 1: personnel combinations. Ray thinks that's maybe what's holding them back. 914 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:52,399 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm I don't think I'm there 915 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 1: with that. Well, he may be right, but unfortunately, I 916 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 1: think at this point in history in the NFL, you 917 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 1: got to do that. You kind of have to do that, 918 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 1: you and not just put the same guys out there, 919 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: because in particular in the NFL, because yeah, it's you're 920 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: just not gonna be able to find eleven guys who 921 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 1: can win week to week by themselves. You gotta have 922 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:18,919 Speaker 1: three tight ends sets. You gotta have four tight end sets. 923 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 1: You gotta have five wide sets. You gotta have three 924 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 1: wide sets too. You have all these personnel combinations because 925 00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:27,160 Speaker 1: you have to be able to give the defense something 926 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 1: that they're not ready for or something that attacks a 927 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 1: weakness of the defense, particularly the personnel the defense. And 928 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 1: if they've got a couple of guys on their defense 929 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,879 Speaker 1: that can't cover and they only put one of them 930 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 1: out there at a time, you got to find a 931 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,400 Speaker 1: way to get the guy you want on the field, 932 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:44,880 Speaker 1: and that means putting different people on the on the 933 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,399 Speaker 1: field and forcing that guy to get on the field 934 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 1: because that's the package he's in. That's the way offenses 935 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:52,799 Speaker 1: are run in the NFL these days. You make a 936 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 1: great point, though, Ray, It takes more time for an 937 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 1: offense to come together and be effective consistently than it 938 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 1: does for a defense because an offense, all eleven guys 939 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:10,000 Speaker 1: have to be choreographed, and you have to do things 940 00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 1: the right way on the same page, the right reads. 941 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 1: Different people have to read an offense or a defense 942 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:18,920 Speaker 1: the same way at the same time and the same 943 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,279 Speaker 1: way so they can complete a pass same thing. In 944 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 1: the run game, your offensive linemen have to read the 945 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 1: front so that they can move to block properly with 946 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 1: choreograph movements. The way those guys are aligned, the defense 947 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 1: is aligned, so they have to read it independently of 948 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 1: each other in order to make the blocks. So all 949 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 1: that stuff causes it causes it to be more difficult 950 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 1: for offenses to come together than defenses. Defense. Everybody could 951 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:46,439 Speaker 1: do the wrong thing and one guy in the back 952 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:47,799 Speaker 1: end makes a play at the end of the play, 953 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 1: knocks the pass away and they think, wow, great defense. 954 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's that kind of It's just the way 955 00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:55,719 Speaker 1: it's fundamentally is different. So he's your right ray. It 956 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,480 Speaker 1: probably is taking the offense a lot longer to be 957 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 1: as comfortable as the defenses. And it's because they have 958 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,279 Speaker 1: all these new players and the fact that they have 959 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:07,440 Speaker 1: a lot more players that need to play a more 960 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 1: significant role on offense than they do on defense. Take 961 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:13,000 Speaker 1: one more call before we get the top of the 962 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,680 Speaker 1: hour here, let's go to Joe and Kenmore. Hello, Joe, welcome, 963 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,680 Speaker 1: you're on the air of this by I appreciate you 964 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:21,880 Speaker 1: taking my call. I'd listen to you guys a lot. 965 00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:27,000 Speaker 1: And my concerns are the penalties and the mistakes. I mean, 966 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 1: we've seen this year after year, and last year they've 967 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:36,320 Speaker 1: had the same problems. I mean, the presnap penalties, the fumbling, 968 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 1: the interceptions, the lack of the long ball. I don't 969 00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:42,920 Speaker 1: know if there's any other team in the NFL that 970 00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:47,239 Speaker 1: hasn't had a completion down forty fifty sixty yards a 971 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,399 Speaker 1: long shot to the end zone. Yet I've never seen 972 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 1: a quarterback that can't throw at least one long past 973 00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 1: like that. I mean I was playing college football and 974 00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:01,279 Speaker 1: I was a quarterback. At you you're in the goal, 975 00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 1: and I could throw along pass without even thinking about it. 976 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 1: I didn't. It just comes natural to judge. I don't 977 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,200 Speaker 1: think it. H Maybe he just doesn't have it for that. 978 00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,440 Speaker 1: You know, what do you think Steve does? He just 979 00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 1: doesn't have it. What do you make of that? Oh, 980 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:19,839 Speaker 1: they were pretty hot on him, and they were pot 981 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:21,800 Speaker 1: on him. They were hot on him last year he 982 00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:23,880 Speaker 1: was throwing it, so I don't know if it went away. 983 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 1: But I get you, you're right. I think one of 984 00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:27,239 Speaker 1: the big thing and we talked about it a lot, 985 00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:32,200 Speaker 1: particularly with Josh, but it goes for the whole team. Penalties, fumbles, 986 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 1: interceptions mistakes I think are the biggest downfall to this team. 987 00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 1: It's not talent, it's not the trade deadline, it's it's 988 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:46,680 Speaker 1: their own execution. It's their discipline and execution. And you 989 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:48,719 Speaker 1: can you can jump up and down and say, you 990 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,520 Speaker 1: know that's all Sean McDermott, that's all that, But we know, yeah. 991 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:53,160 Speaker 1: I mean you can hear him talk about it. They 992 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 1: coach this stuff up and I think something happens. Some 993 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 1: of these guys need to do a better job of 994 00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:02,359 Speaker 1: executing pre snap penalty. These are idiotic. You can't put 995 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 1: that on the coaches. I mean, they do coach it, 996 00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 1: but why would you even have to coach that. You 997 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:11,800 Speaker 1: go on the ball, that's Pop Warner stuff. You can't 998 00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: jump offsides on offense in their head zone, you can't 999 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: do that. So yeah, I agree with you, Joe, who 1000 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:24,000 Speaker 1: do you agree with? Mistakes have been what their own mistakes. 1001 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 1: It hasn't been a talent issue. It's been an execution issue, 1002 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,040 Speaker 1: and a lot of it has to do, probably with 1003 00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 1: what the caller before said. You got too many new 1004 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 1: guys that haven't come together yet and aren't as confident 1005 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 1: in what they're doing on offense. As they are on defense. 1006 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 1: One of our favorite guests standing body to join this 1007 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:42,279 Speaker 1: next Therm and Thomas Hall of Fame running Backs is 1008 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:44,279 Speaker 1: going to be live in studio with us.

Thurman came 1056 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:26,759 Speaker 1: in complaining about the first hour of the show, basically saying, 1057 00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 1: Steve and I are missing the point.

We got twenty minutes for you. 1064 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:49,319 Speaker 1: Your point was, we're over analyzing it. Right as far 1065 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,920 Speaker 1: as the Bills defeat to Philadelphia, right, absolutely, what are 1066 00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 1: we doing? What we are? I mean, just play, you 1067 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:56,799 Speaker 1: just gotta play. Philly came in here with a chip 1068 00:52:56,840 --> 00:53:00,000 Speaker 1: on their shoulder after Peterson said we're gonna gathertee, we're 1069 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:02,799 Speaker 1: gonna beat Dallas or whatever he said. And from the 1070 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 1: get go, Fletcher Crocks just dominated our offense from the 1071 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 1: from the get go, and you knew at that point 1072 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:12,840 Speaker 1: in time they were coming to play. It was their 1073 00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 1: physicality up here and the Bills were right here. That's 1074 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:18,839 Speaker 1: the way it was, and it and that and your 1075 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:21,880 Speaker 1: best player made his point and that spread to the 1076 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 1: rest of the team, and that's how they were. And 1077 00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 1: it's one of those games just like you know what 1078 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 1: we're reminded me of. I think we went to Kansas City. 1079 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:30,680 Speaker 1: We were four and old and they rushed for over 1080 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:33,840 Speaker 1: two hundred yards. Yeah, you just got you just got pounded. 1081 00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:35,480 Speaker 1: You gotta forget about it and come back to the 1082 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,160 Speaker 1: next game. I talked to the players Monday, yet Jerry 1083 00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:44,080 Speaker 1: and Megan's Halloween party, Like, dude, forget about it. Okay, 1084 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:46,520 Speaker 1: you rushed, they rushed for over two hundred yards or whatever, 1085 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:48,680 Speaker 1: and you didn't play well on offense. So what you're 1086 00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:51,080 Speaker 1: five and two. You can be six and two, first 1087 00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:52,759 Speaker 1: player of the game against the Washing Risk and you 1088 00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,239 Speaker 1: pound them right in the freaking mouth and you let 1089 00:53:55,239 --> 00:53:57,560 Speaker 1: them know it's gonna be a long day. That's it. 1090 00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 1: It's not. It's it's not. The coaches are, the players are. 1091 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 1: The offense team you're playing is one. You get out 1092 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,280 Speaker 1: there and you just go, man, forget about that loss. 1093 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:16,319 Speaker 1: Loss is history history. Murphy Therm is the quintessential old guy. 1094 00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 1: What do you mean? You know, I get it. He's right, 1095 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:27,319 Speaker 1: But because I saw the same thing the Redskin. It's 1096 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,480 Speaker 1: a week to week league, and the Redskins showed up 1097 00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 1: last week in Buffalo and they were mad and embarrassed 1098 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:34,920 Speaker 1: and they were not gonna. They were in getting criticized 1099 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,680 Speaker 1: at home and and they you know, they had a 1100 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 1: lot of guys on that team that had been in 1101 00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:42,919 Speaker 1: Super Bowl two years ago, and that's that's disrespectful, and man, 1102 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 1: that's the thing that sets the guys off. So they 1103 00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:46,600 Speaker 1: came in and hit the Bills in the mount and 1104 00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 1: the Bills didn't answer, at least don't answer well enough. Uh, 1105 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:54,400 Speaker 1: it's it's and that can happen to anybody. The Bills 1106 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:57,120 Speaker 1: need to find something in them that will get them 1107 00:54:57,160 --> 00:55:00,360 Speaker 1: to that level for this week and every week obsequent. 1108 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,840 Speaker 1: It's hard to do. And that's why you see players 1109 00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:07,080 Speaker 1: who you know, have whatever said about them in the media, 1110 00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:10,200 Speaker 1: they'll construe it in a way that gives them motivation. Like, 1111 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:13,520 Speaker 1: for instance, some running back who gets has an article 1112 00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:15,440 Speaker 1: written about him on Super Bowl Week and says, hey, 1113 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:17,400 Speaker 1: he's the best all around running back in the National 1114 00:55:17,400 --> 00:55:20,760 Speaker 1: Football League, and somehow he storms out a media day 1115 00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 1: and he uses it as fuel. Right, it was a 1116 00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 1: complimentary article that he turned into a negget. You gotta 1117 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:31,399 Speaker 1: get yourself into that mindset so your teammates will jump 1118 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:34,480 Speaker 1: on a knack for that. Somebody pay you a compliment, 1119 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden it became an insult. Somehow. 1120 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:40,759 Speaker 1: My teammates love them, teams loved them, fire, love them. 1121 00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 1: Are you're great? What would you say? You don't? You 1122 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:48,759 Speaker 1: don't where this uniform? It's true though you see it, 1123 00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 1: you see it Today's NFL. Just it's they if because 1124 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:56,760 Speaker 1: the emotional content of that game says a lot about 1125 00:55:57,360 --> 00:56:00,480 Speaker 1: who's gonna win it and it and it's built up 1126 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:03,359 Speaker 1: throughout the week. It helps you in your in your preparation, 1127 00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:05,759 Speaker 1: it helps you in your practice, it helps you in 1128 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:09,279 Speaker 1: your in every aspect of your preparation. And when you 1129 00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,080 Speaker 1: show up on game day and you've had some reason 1130 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:17,920 Speaker 1: to be angry whatever, in in tune with a moment, 1131 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,879 Speaker 1: it makes a big difference.

I'd like to find out. You know, I 1142 00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,000 Speaker 1: think not only myself, I think everybody else kind of 1143 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:51,759 Speaker 1: wood too. But you know, that's kind of where we're 1144 00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 1: at now, because we're still kind of searching to see, actually, 1145 00:56:56,680 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 1: like what type of offense is this? Ye? Right? I 1146 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: mean I thought Frank Grod, think Grod did a great 1147 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:05,799 Speaker 1: job of running to football on Sunday, and they went 1148 00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:10,600 Speaker 1: away from that. So I don't know. I hope this 1149 00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:13,440 Speaker 1: is a game. I hope we don't be sent up 1150 00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 1: here talking about this after five more games and then 1151 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:18,520 Speaker 1: all of a sudden he breaks out in a game 1152 00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 1: and we're saying, well, what was this five weeks ago? 1153 00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 1: I would love to see it. Yeah, I don't think 1154 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:27,320 Speaker 1: there's not too much to complain about except for this 1155 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 1: game last week, and then there's you can complain about 1156 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:33,320 Speaker 1: that in the outcome of it. But they've I think 1157 00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 1: they have shown a pensiont for not only with players 1158 00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:39,480 Speaker 1: like Devin Singletary, young players, but also guys like Tyler Croft, 1159 00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 1: who's a veteran who was active one week and he 1160 00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 1: didn't even get a chance. You know, he got like 1161 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:45,120 Speaker 1: five snaps or maybe he was in more than that, 1162 00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:47,400 Speaker 1: but didn't get any targets. And then this last week 1163 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:49,840 Speaker 1: he started to contribute. You see it with injured guys 1164 00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 1: Devin single they held it seems like they were holding 1165 00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:54,800 Speaker 1: Devin Singletary out and next you know, they were really 1166 00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 1: careful with returning these guys and they kind of let 1167 00:57:57,400 --> 00:58:00,600 Speaker 1: him acclimate before they really gave him. Then run when 1168 00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 1: he gave the leg thing like that that told me 1169 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 1: to hamstring was read it right, that's right. So I 1170 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:10,440 Speaker 1: think this the staff and this whole organization hasn't a 1171 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:15,080 Speaker 1: thing where they work in let guys work into the groove. Right, Okay, 1172 00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 1: we're week seven. He should be in the groove now, 1173 00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 1: even with a four week injury, even with at gender 1174 00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,920 Speaker 1: like like you said, Kraft and I love to see 1175 00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 1: Kraft and uh Dawson knocks out there the same time. 1176 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,320 Speaker 1: And you think those guys they're tight ends, but they 1177 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:31,600 Speaker 1: can be good receivers if you put him out wide. 1178 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 1: So you think about it. This next game watching this 1179 00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,440 Speaker 1: will be the longest stretch that Singletary's actually played. He 1180 00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:39,800 Speaker 1: was in for one and a half games the Jets Giants, 1181 00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:42,000 Speaker 1: and now he's been in. You know, he was out 1182 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:44,439 Speaker 1: for so long. Now he's just been back for about 1183 00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:47,280 Speaker 1: that long, you know what I mean. Maybe it'll be uh, 1184 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:51,160 Speaker 1: it'll be time for him to get a lot more touches. 1185 00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 1: But then again, I'm also intrigued by Frank go and 1186 00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:57,480 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson being on the field, and Tyler I want 1187 00:58:57,520 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 1: to say, Tyler Craft, I want to see, uh, I 1188 00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:01,440 Speaker 1: want to see. I want to see some guys get 1189 00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 1: the ball. Yeah, exactly, Yeah, I mean I would love 1190 00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,200 Speaker 1: to see a tight end get over one hundred yards 1191 00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:07,720 Speaker 1: receiving the ball. Man, I'd love to see a running 1192 00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:10,280 Speaker 1: back get over one hundred yards rushing the wall. I'd 1193 00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 1: love to see Josh Allen get over three hundred yards. 1194 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:14,840 Speaker 1: You put all, I'd like to see there you go. 1195 00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:17,680 Speaker 1: I'd like to see some offense. Man, I think there's 1196 00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 1: a lot of talent on this football team, especially on 1197 00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:22,800 Speaker 1: the offensive side of the ball. When you look at 1198 00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:25,640 Speaker 1: what they had three years ago, I think it's probably 1199 00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 1: I would say it's probably better. Oh yeah, I would 1200 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:31,600 Speaker 1: say it's probably better. Let's use those guys, just use 1201 00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:33,920 Speaker 1: the way I look. I know Dabs in there having 1202 00:59:33,960 --> 00:59:35,919 Speaker 1: a hard time trying to figure all this stuff out 1203 00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:37,760 Speaker 1: or whatever, and you know, I know some people have 1204 00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 1: probably been getting on them or whatever. But man, you 1205 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:44,040 Speaker 1: have the tools. You have the ability to put up 1206 00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 1: twenty one to twenty four points a game, and that'll 1207 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:51,840 Speaker 1: get you a lot of sound like much that will 1208 00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:54,200 Speaker 1: get that will get you a lot of wins if 1209 00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 1: the defense plays up to their capability. If they would 1210 00:59:57,320 --> 01:00:00,240 Speaker 1: have done that this last weekend, it changed the whole game. 1211 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:02,920 Speaker 1: It changed the whole game. And Philly doesn't hang thirty 1212 01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:05,240 Speaker 1: one on you. They only hang twenty twenty four points 1213 01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 1: a tight game because there their opportunities go away because 1214 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 1: you stay on the field. You don't cough it up 1215 01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:12,920 Speaker 1: on your own twenty eight yard line, you know that 1216 01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:15,720 Speaker 1: kind of thing. So the turnover's got to go away, 1217 01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:18,080 Speaker 1: the pre snap penalty's got to go away. And I 1218 01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:21,439 Speaker 1: think it's up to Josh. Once he does that, let's 1219 01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:22,880 Speaker 1: get the ball out of his hands and get some 1220 01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:24,440 Speaker 1: guys with you know, get it to him. You know, 1221 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:27,160 Speaker 1: it looked like last week and maybe it was just 1222 01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:30,000 Speaker 1: a couple of plays where you know, he was he 1223 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:32,080 Speaker 1: was in the pocket for a long period of time 1224 01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:34,720 Speaker 1: and the alleys were there. Yeah, it didn't look like 1225 01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:37,920 Speaker 1: he was this old self, like, okay, are they teaching 1226 01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:39,360 Speaker 1: them you need to stay in the pockets, stay in 1227 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 1: the pocket a little bit. Well, after a couple of seconds, 1228 01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:44,200 Speaker 1: that pocket's gonna collapse. And he has to be aware 1229 01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,960 Speaker 1: as a quarterback, as a very athletic quarterback. He sees 1230 01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:50,560 Speaker 1: that lane, man, he just gotta take it. I mean 1231 01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 1: there were some runs there. It could have been like 1232 01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:55,080 Speaker 1: fifteen twenty yard runs and he didn't take them. Yeah, 1233 01:00:55,280 --> 01:01:01,760 Speaker 1: so I skip back to basics. Okay, started having far 1234 01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:03,200 Speaker 1: like they wore in the first couple of games of 1235 01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:05,200 Speaker 1: the season, Man Derman Thomas with US Hall of Fame 1236 01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:07,600 Speaker 1: running back, you mentioned that a couple of you would 1237 01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:10,320 Speaker 1: think future Hall of famers going against each other, Frank Gore, 1238 01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 1: fourth all time leading rusher could get the third even 1239 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:16,960 Speaker 1: the Sunday and Adrian Peterson, sixth all time leading rusher. 1240 01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:18,520 Speaker 1: What does that mean to you? As one of the 1241 01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:20,960 Speaker 1: all time greats at that position? What do these two 1242 01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,360 Speaker 1: get together. It's not like they're just uh, you know, 1243 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:26,360 Speaker 1: tagging along with rushings. They're both pretty important players on 1244 01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:28,360 Speaker 1: each of their own. Yes they are, you know how 1245 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:30,080 Speaker 1: you look at it though, over the course of light, 1246 01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:33,120 Speaker 1: since this has past turned into what a passing league 1247 01:01:33,240 --> 01:01:35,840 Speaker 1: twenty something years ago? Yeah, for these guys to still 1248 01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:37,960 Speaker 1: be in the league, to still be able to come 1249 01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:42,000 Speaker 1: out and be productive at that position, which is you know, 1250 01:01:42,080 --> 01:01:44,560 Speaker 1: after about seven to eight years, you know, the productivities 1251 01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,600 Speaker 1: starting to go down, But these guys have been productive 1252 01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:49,800 Speaker 1: throughout their year. And just to think about a couple 1253 01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:52,440 Speaker 1: of years ago, Adrian Peterson missed a year because was 1254 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:54,840 Speaker 1: it an achilles Yeah? It was No, it was a 1255 01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:59,280 Speaker 1: acl acl tear right, Yeah, and so he missed a year. 1256 01:01:59,440 --> 01:02:02,280 Speaker 1: He could be to fourteen thousand yards. So, I mean, 1257 01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:04,960 Speaker 1: it's just one of those things where you know, I'm 1258 01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:06,600 Speaker 1: gonna be sited just to look at those guys. You know, 1259 01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:08,560 Speaker 1: obviously I want Frank to have a better day. You know, 1260 01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 1: he has an opportunity to pass Barry Sanders, but you know, 1261 01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:13,720 Speaker 1: two of the toughest guys in the National Football League. 1262 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:17,280 Speaker 1: When you talk about Frank Gore and all Day, how 1263 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,160 Speaker 1: would you describe Frank Or's running style. I have trouble 1264 01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:23,000 Speaker 1: doing that sometimes, Like I can, I see him, I 1265 01:02:23,040 --> 01:02:25,080 Speaker 1: see what he's doing, But how does he run? What 1266 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:28,160 Speaker 1: do you think? What kind of a runner is he? 1267 01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:32,040 Speaker 1: He's a he's not a total contact guy. No, he's 1268 01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:36,480 Speaker 1: not a total contact guy. But he's he's physical, yeah 1269 01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 1: when he has to be. He's not like Christian acquire 1270 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 1: something now. He's very patient. Yeah, but you know he's 1271 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:44,280 Speaker 1: not a fast guy. He's not a fast guy. So 1272 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:47,880 Speaker 1: I think his patients really takes over with him being 1273 01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:51,120 Speaker 1: back there seven sometimes eight times eight yards behind a 1274 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 1: lot of scrimmage, you know, very patient running throughout his career. 1275 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:56,560 Speaker 1: And the thing that I've always talked about with Frank 1276 01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,480 Speaker 1: Gore is the impressive thing is that it has been 1277 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 1: between the tackles. Yeah, it has been between the tackles, 1278 01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:04,880 Speaker 1: says Day One in San Francisco. I'll give you another 1279 01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:07,720 Speaker 1: example to last year. He was in Miami, Adam gays 1280 01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:09,560 Speaker 1: for all the problems. He has a head coach. He 1281 01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:12,200 Speaker 1: brought Frank Goren and it was just it was kind 1282 01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:14,000 Speaker 1: of a like it is here, like it was thought 1283 01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:15,480 Speaker 1: to be what he's gonna come in and mentor because 1284 01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:18,080 Speaker 1: the guy's aunt consummate pro right, he is like he's 1285 01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:21,080 Speaker 1: like he's like Lorenzo Alexander. He shows up, he does 1286 01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 1: his work, he prepares himself, he stays healthy, he gets 1287 01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:26,120 Speaker 1: in the tub, he gets treatment, he watches film, everything right, 1288 01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:28,960 Speaker 1: And they always come in thinking, Okay, he might well 1289 01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:30,640 Speaker 1: give him in. He's gonna mention these All of a sudden, 1290 01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:35,480 Speaker 1: they just keep handing him ram right, they can't keep 1291 01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:38,160 Speaker 1: him off the field. But I think when when you're 1292 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:40,680 Speaker 1: built the way he is. He just goes out and 1293 01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:43,400 Speaker 1: makes plays. He doesn't misspractice, he doesn't do any of 1294 01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:45,560 Speaker 1: those day, he doesn't get hurt or whatever. I know 1295 01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 1: he has his rest of day with Sean McDermott. But 1296 01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:50,400 Speaker 1: when you were out there and you're getting the bulk 1297 01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:53,040 Speaker 1: of the carriages, like right now, you're doing something right 1298 01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:55,200 Speaker 1: in practice, You're you're hitting the whole, You're doing just 1299 01:03:55,240 --> 01:03:58,280 Speaker 1: about everything correct. And it's like, like you said, be 1300 01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:02,200 Speaker 1: a mentor. No he here to play. Yeah, he is 1301 01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:04,040 Speaker 1: not here to sit on the bench. He's here out 1302 01:04:04,080 --> 01:04:06,040 Speaker 1: there to try to play with the football game single turn. 1303 01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:08,600 Speaker 1: No he's not, No, he's no, he's not doing that. Man, 1304 01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 1: here's a running back trade. I want to ask you 1305 01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:12,120 Speaker 1: about it. And I think about this when I watch 1306 01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:14,960 Speaker 1: Gore a lot. His vision it seems even and he's 1307 01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:17,040 Speaker 1: going between the tackles, as you said, but he seems 1308 01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:18,880 Speaker 1: to have a nact for knowing where this guy's gonna 1309 01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:21,000 Speaker 1: wind up, where that guy's gonna wind up, where I 1310 01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,040 Speaker 1: can plant my foot and cut just and he's not, 1311 01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:26,480 Speaker 1: you know, going sideline the sideline right, How important an 1312 01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:28,840 Speaker 1: attribute is that vision? And every port was it was 1313 01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:31,120 Speaker 1: a big party game, right, big part of the vision. 1314 01:04:31,240 --> 01:04:33,479 Speaker 1: I mean, and and you think about, like we said, 1315 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:36,280 Speaker 1: between the tackles. It's been like this for him for 1316 01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:40,120 Speaker 1: fifteen years. So he knows the crease. Obviously there's trafficking 1317 01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:43,200 Speaker 1: and there's trafficking that Obviously he's done something over his 1318 01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:45,760 Speaker 1: career where he's watching offensive line. He's watching the where 1319 01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:48,240 Speaker 1: the defense lined up. You know where pretty much every 1320 01:04:48,280 --> 01:04:50,840 Speaker 1: defensive scheme there probably is in a national football league 1321 01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:52,960 Speaker 1: when you come to the front for the front for 1322 01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:55,920 Speaker 1: defensive linement. Then the linebacker, he's seen it all. He 1323 01:04:56,000 --> 01:04:58,720 Speaker 1: just finds that crease. Man, he hits it. Yeah he's down, 1324 01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:00,840 Speaker 1: he's down here and there's come You've said he's not fast, 1325 01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:04,040 Speaker 1: but there's like functional speed. Oh yeah, it's just the quickness. 1326 01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:09,040 Speaker 1: Just it's a burst of power force. All that is 1327 01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:11,320 Speaker 1: involved with Frank. It's interesting too because you get these 1328 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:13,320 Speaker 1: running backs and there they're like, oh, he's spectacular. You 1329 01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:15,200 Speaker 1: know he's gonna right up. Frank Gore has not been 1330 01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:17,040 Speaker 1: a home run hitter for well for most of his 1331 01:05:17,080 --> 01:05:21,040 Speaker 1: coach but the thing that gets you about him, he's dependable, 1332 01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:23,760 Speaker 1: and you Teddy Marcher Brod to the offensive coordinator those 1333 01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:25,600 Speaker 1: Bills teams back in the nineties. He used to say, 1334 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:27,640 Speaker 1: just get every yard coming to you, right, you know, 1335 01:05:27,680 --> 01:05:30,320 Speaker 1: get every yard coming to you. He always gets every yard. 1336 01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:32,880 Speaker 1: Ka never leaves anything on the table. If there's a 1337 01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:35,560 Speaker 1: crease there, he's gonna get it now. Sometimes it's not, 1338 01:05:35,680 --> 01:05:38,000 Speaker 1: but he always gets the yard. Is that's coming to you. 1339 01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:44,600 Speaker 1: Any consistently dependent man, you know, coaches love dependable, right, 1340 01:05:45,280 --> 01:05:48,560 Speaker 1: Spectacular is great, but they love dependable. And that's what 1341 01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:52,120 Speaker 1: Frank Is Elijah Pitt told me when I first got here. 1342 01:05:52,600 --> 01:05:54,600 Speaker 1: I'm not going to change the run style because you've 1343 01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:57,360 Speaker 1: been doing this as high school, college and pros or whatever. 1344 01:05:57,560 --> 01:05:59,200 Speaker 1: But the only thing I am going to tell you 1345 01:05:59,240 --> 01:06:04,600 Speaker 1: is that always fall forward. Yeah, always fall forward. Don't 1346 01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:08,160 Speaker 1: never sideways back or whatever. Always fall forward. Make sure 1347 01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:10,640 Speaker 1: every time you get up you're facing towards the gold line. 1348 01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:13,959 Speaker 1: I mean that gives you, like, Okay, I'm not gonna 1349 01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:16,600 Speaker 1: lose a yard. I'm gonna fall forward. I'm gonna gain 1350 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:18,960 Speaker 1: an extra one or two or three extra yards every 1351 01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:22,760 Speaker 1: single time I fall forward. Thurmon Thomas's with us for 1352 01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,320 Speaker 1: a couple of more Midchary trade deadline two days ago, 1353 01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:28,280 Speaker 1: the Bills did nothing. Most of the NFL didn't do anything. 1354 01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:29,880 Speaker 1: What do you think did they need to Did the 1355 01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:34,800 Speaker 1: Bills need to make a trade? Who knows? Who knows? 1356 01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:37,320 Speaker 1: I mean their first three years they made more trade 1357 01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:40,200 Speaker 1: than anybody probably in the National Football League. And everybody 1358 01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:43,520 Speaker 1: was going crazy here. I can't believe they got rid 1359 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:44,960 Speaker 1: of my show. I can't believe they got rid of 1360 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:46,440 Speaker 1: the Samme or what are they doing or whatever? And 1361 01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:48,320 Speaker 1: they don't make a trade on the trade deadline and 1362 01:06:48,360 --> 01:06:52,040 Speaker 1: everybody like, why didn't we trade for somebody? Yeah, maybe 1363 01:06:52,080 --> 01:06:55,840 Speaker 1: they're fixed on what this football team can do. I 1364 01:06:55,840 --> 01:06:58,640 Speaker 1: mean they we've had flashes of it. S exactly what 1365 01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:01,760 Speaker 1: you get better? I mean moments of it, and I mean, 1366 01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:03,520 Speaker 1: who are you going to go get? They're different than 1367 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:05,760 Speaker 1: they were three years ago too. I mean, and I think, 1368 01:07:05,800 --> 01:07:08,400 Speaker 1: and I said this on this show and others, I 1369 01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:10,680 Speaker 1: think they really felt like with the trades they made 1370 01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:12,760 Speaker 1: early on with a big contract, that it was additioned 1371 01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:15,720 Speaker 1: by subtraction. Certainly it might have been down the road 1372 01:07:15,760 --> 01:07:18,040 Speaker 1: where they got the addition back for the subtraction. They 1373 01:07:18,200 --> 01:07:22,400 Speaker 1: draft picks and the money and the production. Right but right, 1374 01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:25,200 Speaker 1: But I don't think it's and that hasn't all gone 1375 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,480 Speaker 1: well for him. I mean the Kelvin Benjamin trade last year. 1376 01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:29,360 Speaker 1: I mean, he didn't know that guy was gonna go 1377 01:07:29,440 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 1: into his shell. But the Derby trade was a good trade. 1378 01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 1: H E. J. Gaines, they got him right back. You 1379 01:07:38,520 --> 01:07:41,880 Speaker 1: know that they had guys, they made some good trades 1380 01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:43,280 Speaker 1: and it comes one or two of them. You can 1381 01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:45,440 Speaker 1: name the obvious ones that didn't go well, but they 1382 01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:48,120 Speaker 1: were not been shy. So I think the fact that 1383 01:07:48,760 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 1: they didn't do anything on trade deadline was a function 1384 01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:54,000 Speaker 1: of two things. One, they're much better roster than they 1385 01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:56,000 Speaker 1: were when they first arrived. It's not and it's much 1386 01:07:56,040 --> 01:07:58,400 Speaker 1: more difficult to get a good player that's gonna be 1387 01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,520 Speaker 1: better than the ones you got. That wasn't the case 1388 01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:02,120 Speaker 1: when they got here. There's a lot of guys out 1389 01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:04,600 Speaker 1: there they could get better at. And the second thing is, 1390 01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:07,520 Speaker 1: you know it takes two and there are teams out 1391 01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:10,680 Speaker 1: there who's theither price was too high exactly? I think 1392 01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:13,400 Speaker 1: that was amazing right there. Yeah, me too high? When 1393 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,919 Speaker 1: everybody when you're talking about wide receivers, now you're talking 1394 01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:22,000 Speaker 1: about Age Green, who's really who's not Julio Jones? Two one. 1395 01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,280 Speaker 1: Can't get him, You can't get him. I mean, those 1396 01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:26,840 Speaker 1: were the only guys that out that were out there 1397 01:08:26,960 --> 01:08:30,360 Speaker 1: that could probably help your football team. And I think 1398 01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:32,439 Speaker 1: at this point in time, it was too much of 1399 01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:34,880 Speaker 1: a price to pay for those guys to make that move, right. 1400 01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:37,080 Speaker 1: I mean, we sat here. We know Brandon Bean picks 1401 01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:40,280 Speaker 1: up the phone. Oh absolutely, you know he's not alone. 1402 01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:44,479 Speaker 1: You know, a ton of GM's called the Atlanta Fagus said, 1403 01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 1: what's it gonna take to get Julio, especially with Matt 1404 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:49,040 Speaker 1: Ryan out right? Well that they're two and they're one 1405 01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:53,000 Speaker 1: and whatever there they stink and Cincinnati same thing. Everybody's 1406 01:08:53,040 --> 01:08:55,360 Speaker 1: calling about those guys. You know, what's it gonna take? 1407 01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:58,360 Speaker 1: And the numbers just too big. It's just too big. 1408 01:08:58,400 --> 01:09:00,840 Speaker 1: You can't get those guys out of there. Derminus Weathers 1409 01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:02,080 Speaker 1: for a couple of more. Man, That's a couple of 1410 01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 1: things to ask you about this weekend. The Bills have 1411 01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:07,640 Speaker 1: their Thank You Coach Lifetime Service Award part of the 1412 01:09:08,160 --> 01:09:12,120 Speaker 1: Don't Retire Kid campaign too, which you did a video for. Right, 1413 01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:16,160 Speaker 1: Don't Retire Kid part of the NFL's Don't Retire Kid campaign. 1414 01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:19,280 Speaker 1: The Ralph C. Wilson Foundation Project playing Western New York. 1415 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:22,719 Speaker 1: It's an important message, right kid, you keep playing, Yeah, 1416 01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:24,479 Speaker 1: to keep playing, you know, and you know a lot 1417 01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:27,599 Speaker 1: of things have changed, you know since then. Just two 1418 01:09:27,680 --> 01:09:29,840 Speaker 1: days ago, a day ago, they were talking about passing 1419 01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:32,880 Speaker 1: a law here in New York about not letting kids 1420 01:09:32,880 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 1: play tackle football until they get twelve years old. I 1421 01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:38,800 Speaker 1: didn't see that. Yeah, yeah, it was something that was 1422 01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:43,160 Speaker 1: thrown out in legilation legislation, and so I don't know 1423 01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:44,960 Speaker 1: if that's going to pass or whatever. But with something 1424 01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:46,880 Speaker 1: that was just thrown out there, but you know, I 1425 01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:49,639 Speaker 1: always said, you know, give these kids an opportunity to play. 1426 01:09:49,960 --> 01:09:52,080 Speaker 1: Let these kids have fun. I think when you get 1427 01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:54,840 Speaker 1: when you're a small kid, you know, you're thrown out there, 1428 01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:56,840 Speaker 1: you're putting on football pass. You know what you want 1429 01:09:56,840 --> 01:09:59,120 Speaker 1: to learn. You want to have the fundamentals now, you 1430 01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:00,840 Speaker 1: want to have fun when you're out there. You know, 1431 01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:03,559 Speaker 1: you don't want to coach screaming and holland at you 1432 01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:07,720 Speaker 1: every single practice. And it's my first year playing football, right, 1433 01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:10,000 Speaker 1: you know that kind of stuff. Right there, we're kind 1434 01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:12,920 Speaker 1: of waiver a kid because one they're out there with 1435 01:10:12,960 --> 01:10:15,519 Speaker 1: their friends. Yeah, they're out there with their friends and 1436 01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:20,200 Speaker 1: have far and I've always let my kid thirm in 1437 01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:22,880 Speaker 1: the right way of being with the right coach, being 1438 01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:26,559 Speaker 1: with the right organization, because I mean, throughout my NFL career, yeah, 1439 01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:29,120 Speaker 1: I had some coaches that would scream in college or 1440 01:10:29,160 --> 01:10:33,040 Speaker 1: whatever in high school, you know, and it really really 1441 01:10:33,120 --> 01:10:35,320 Speaker 1: upset me. It wasn't me, but it was upsetting to 1442 01:10:35,400 --> 01:10:37,080 Speaker 1: me for me to see for the other players. I mean, 1443 01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:41,400 Speaker 1: it's it's difficult to grow up kind of in that mentality. 1444 01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:44,400 Speaker 1: But I think with the kids today and with the concussions, 1445 01:10:44,479 --> 01:10:46,960 Speaker 1: when the worries of the parents, we have to take 1446 01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:48,800 Speaker 1: this a little bit sloor than what we're doing now 1447 01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:51,320 Speaker 1: and kind of go back to the fundamentals of having 1448 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:53,599 Speaker 1: fun and playing this great game that we love.

Yeah, a really cool experience down there. We 1535 01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:43,400 Speaker 1: had a lot of fun and wanted to say that, Yeah, 1536 01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:49,160 Speaker 1: for the offense real quick is uh, you know we 1537 01:15:50,200 --> 01:15:52,600 Speaker 1: I read a staff Frank Doors seeing eat Man in 1538 01:15:52,640 --> 01:15:55,360 Speaker 1: the box? Uh, you know they're just seeing it a lot. 1539 01:15:55,439 --> 01:15:59,080 Speaker 1: Of course, why wouldn't you. And if if we marched 1540 01:15:59,080 --> 01:16:00,840 Speaker 1: the tight ends out there like we have, Ben, of 1541 01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:02,400 Speaker 1: course you're going to see eight men in the box. 1542 01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:07,280 Speaker 1: But if my question is how much trust does the 1543 01:16:07,280 --> 01:16:10,080 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator and Josh have with each other? Is 1544 01:16:10,120 --> 01:16:14,000 Speaker 1: he able to audible out of that stuff? Um? Or 1545 01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:16,280 Speaker 1: do we do you see audibles? I mean, as a 1546 01:16:16,439 --> 01:16:20,439 Speaker 1: as a casual fan, it's hard to recognize that stuff 1547 01:16:20,479 --> 01:16:23,200 Speaker 1: watching on TV, but maybe you guys had a better 1548 01:16:23,240 --> 01:16:26,200 Speaker 1: look at it. Um. Are we audibleing a lot? And 1549 01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:29,160 Speaker 1: that's something that you know, the freestaff stuff, that's stuff 1550 01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:31,960 Speaker 1: you're talking about with Chris anyhow. But yeah, I was 1551 01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:33,599 Speaker 1: just curious to hear you guys thoughts on that. I'll 1552 01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,160 Speaker 1: hang up and listen and thanks guys, Okay, thank you, Ben. 1553 01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:42,040 Speaker 1: Yeah they audible? Sure, Yeah, yeah they do. I mean 1554 01:16:42,200 --> 01:16:45,599 Speaker 1: I'm sure they They probably do it more now that 1555 01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:47,400 Speaker 1: Josh is in his second year in the offense than 1556 01:16:47,439 --> 01:16:49,160 Speaker 1: they did a year ago. And I'm sure it's evolving 1557 01:16:49,160 --> 01:16:51,280 Speaker 1: Asian as we speak, and there's you have to do 1558 01:16:51,360 --> 01:16:55,200 Speaker 1: some of that um in the NFL, or at least 1559 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:56,439 Speaker 1: be ready to do it. You don't have to do 1560 01:16:56,439 --> 01:16:58,720 Speaker 1: it every play obviously, So yeah, I'm sure they do 1561 01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:03,000 Speaker 1: it like uh as much as they possibly need to, 1562 01:17:03,200 --> 01:17:05,599 Speaker 1: and maybe a little more. Maybe they're giving Josh more 1563 01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:10,040 Speaker 1: and more freedom to do that. But I couldn't speak 1564 01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:11,280 Speaker 1: to it any more than that, because I don't know 1565 01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:15,160 Speaker 1: what the offensive verbiage is or what they want Josh 1566 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:16,800 Speaker 1: to be able to do and what they keep him 1567 01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:19,599 Speaker 1: from doing. If anything, I do my senses, I don't 1568 01:17:19,640 --> 01:17:22,240 Speaker 1: I mean numbers to back this up. My senses. He 1569 01:17:22,320 --> 01:17:24,599 Speaker 1: audibles more now than he did a year ago, which 1570 01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:27,320 Speaker 1: would make sense to right, just better command of the offense. Right, 1571 01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:31,599 Speaker 1: Let's go to a call from Butch in Buffalo. Good afternoon, Butch, 1572 01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:34,880 Speaker 1: Welcome to the show, John Steve, thanks so much for 1573 01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:38,479 Speaker 1: taking more call. Great show, Thank you. I wanted to 1574 01:17:38,479 --> 01:17:40,840 Speaker 1: just as a couple of things I really want to 1575 01:17:40,840 --> 01:17:43,360 Speaker 1: get at. Number one is I'm glad Thurman was on there, 1576 01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:45,400 Speaker 1: and if Thurman hit on some points of saying that 1577 01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:52,000 Speaker 1: we have enough talent to win on offense, and the 1578 01:17:52,120 --> 01:17:54,960 Speaker 1: question you had excures me the most. Excuse me the 1579 01:17:54,960 --> 01:17:59,680 Speaker 1: most is division of this offense moving forward seven games in. 1580 01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:03,120 Speaker 1: We should know, we should have an identification on this offense. 1581 01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:06,120 Speaker 1: We should have some kind of identity of who we 1582 01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:08,680 Speaker 1: are and what we want to do. Just like you 1583 01:18:08,680 --> 01:18:11,559 Speaker 1: guys explained about Devin Singletary. You know he's on the field, 1584 01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:14,240 Speaker 1: but he's got touching the ball or he's getting snaps. 1585 01:18:14,720 --> 01:18:17,920 Speaker 1: That's common sense. The common sense. We have an elementary 1586 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:21,639 Speaker 1: type offense, preschool our callers sometimes because we don't even 1587 01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:24,680 Speaker 1: use draws. We don't even use a reckless screen. I 1588 01:18:24,720 --> 01:18:28,000 Speaker 1: mean a real screen where they let everybody in and 1589 01:18:28,000 --> 01:18:29,720 Speaker 1: then they can throw the screen. We don't even use 1590 01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:33,320 Speaker 1: those plays. We have one call you had earlier, Job 1591 01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:37,960 Speaker 1: was stating about mackenzie being in the lineup, Foster being 1592 01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:41,719 Speaker 1: in the lineup. It's like this, do you ask Tom Brady, 1593 01:18:41,880 --> 01:18:45,000 Speaker 1: should Edelman be on the lineup or shop Orsher or 1594 01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:48,280 Speaker 1: the doorset be in the lineup? No, these guys are 1595 01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:50,360 Speaker 1: part of the football team, a part of the core 1596 01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:54,040 Speaker 1: office of what we do. McKenzie was running jet sweets 1597 01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:56,880 Speaker 1: all year. He's a part of that. He should always 1598 01:18:56,880 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 1: be in the lineup. So I just really believe moving 1599 01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:02,840 Speaker 1: four with this that the vision of this office. And 1600 01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:05,800 Speaker 1: I don't forget. Now we have OJT on the job 1601 01:19:05,840 --> 01:19:10,600 Speaker 1: training offensive coordinator, handling a guy that and Steve, I 1602 01:19:10,680 --> 01:19:12,880 Speaker 1: know you, I know you flew here. I grew here, Steve, 1603 01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:15,559 Speaker 1: you came here in the trade. I grew here all 1604 01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:17,759 Speaker 1: my life since Jim Kelly. I was on the thirty 1605 01:19:17,760 --> 01:19:19,800 Speaker 1: three when Jim Kelly came down to thirty three when 1606 01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:21,920 Speaker 1: we drafted him, and he was like the kid when 1607 01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:25,400 Speaker 1: he front with Buffalo. We was there. But the thing 1608 01:19:25,479 --> 01:19:29,120 Speaker 1: I'm saying is I waited two decades the quarterback to 1609 01:19:29,320 --> 01:19:31,799 Speaker 1: come in to be the thing, let's say, the savior, 1610 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:35,360 Speaker 1: but to be the name of this franchise. You know what, 1611 01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:39,280 Speaker 1: last year he played, he just balled out. He's he 1612 01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:42,280 Speaker 1: played against Minnesota. He's jumping over everybody. He's playing. Now 1613 01:19:42,280 --> 01:19:44,840 Speaker 1: he's a robot. And just like Dermott said, he was 1614 01:19:44,960 --> 01:19:47,000 Speaker 1: lanes open. I saw in the lanes overs at the game, 1615 01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:49,719 Speaker 1: saw the lanes open. But we gotta cut you off. 1616 01:19:50,240 --> 01:19:53,960 Speaker 1: There's just too much. There's just too much. And some 1617 01:19:54,080 --> 01:19:57,040 Speaker 1: inaccuracies there too as well. I think I think Josh 1618 01:19:57,200 --> 01:19:58,680 Speaker 1: is a better quarterback than he was a year ago. 1619 01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:00,920 Speaker 1: Let's start with that work back. I think he's better 1620 01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:05,680 Speaker 1: on the job training for the offensive coordinator. No, that's 1621 01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:08,280 Speaker 1: not true. Brian Dable has done this before. Just too 1622 01:20:08,360 --> 01:20:12,880 Speaker 1: much I'm overwhelmed by. But yeah, there's no question there's 1623 01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:14,639 Speaker 1: a lot of fans that kind of I'm not saying, 1624 01:20:14,760 --> 01:20:17,400 Speaker 1: Butch was right like you, which was he missed on 1625 01:20:17,439 --> 01:20:19,400 Speaker 1: a couple of things offense. But I think the thing 1626 01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:22,479 Speaker 1: that underlies all of is the frustration with the offense. Yes, everybody, 1627 01:20:23,040 --> 01:20:25,400 Speaker 1: they all get it. There's a lot of reasons for it, 1628 01:20:26,160 --> 01:20:29,120 Speaker 1: and I don't know that hitting. The problem for me 1629 01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:32,880 Speaker 1: is I don't think the problems that the Bill's offense 1630 01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:35,479 Speaker 1: had against the Washington Redskins are the same as the 1631 01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:37,799 Speaker 1: problems they had against the Miami Dolphins. And the problems 1632 01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:41,040 Speaker 1: they had against the Skins are the Eagles and the 1633 01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:43,400 Speaker 1: Dolphins are not the same as the problems they had 1634 01:20:43,439 --> 01:20:47,320 Speaker 1: against Tennessee and the Bengals. Now, they managed to win 1635 01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:49,960 Speaker 1: a lot of those games, but they're still having problems, 1636 01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:52,479 Speaker 1: and those problems are a little bit different. Now there 1637 01:20:52,479 --> 01:20:56,200 Speaker 1: are a common thread the penalties and the turnovers, or 1638 01:20:56,280 --> 01:20:58,720 Speaker 1: a common thread and those would help. But we'd still 1639 01:20:58,760 --> 01:21:02,160 Speaker 1: like to see more explosive plays from this offense, no 1640 01:21:02,240 --> 01:21:05,519 Speaker 1: question about it. And listen, they do run, they do 1641 01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:08,040 Speaker 1: have screen Devin Singletary scored on a screen pass this 1642 01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:11,160 Speaker 1: last week. That's where he got his pass TD passing 1643 01:21:11,200 --> 01:21:15,280 Speaker 1: touchdown was on a screen pass. So you know, I 1644 01:21:15,880 --> 01:21:19,000 Speaker 1: get it. Everybody's frustrated that the offense can't score enough points. 1645 01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:23,640 Speaker 1: This is that's this year's team is gonna be. That's 1646 01:21:23,640 --> 01:21:26,280 Speaker 1: where it was last year when we had didn't have 1647 01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:29,519 Speaker 1: good enough players. This year, we have good enough players, 1648 01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:31,840 Speaker 1: and they not put it together right, you know, offensively 1649 01:21:31,880 --> 01:21:35,559 Speaker 1: to score twenty four points a game. When they get 1650 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:37,320 Speaker 1: to that point, I think we'd be a little more 1651 01:21:37,320 --> 01:21:40,200 Speaker 1: comfortable with them. But they're not that far away. And 1652 01:21:40,240 --> 01:21:41,840 Speaker 1: I think that's my point, and I think we can 1653 01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:44,560 Speaker 1: all agree that it's in there and it's up to 1654 01:21:44,600 --> 01:21:46,519 Speaker 1: the coaching staff to get it out. And but there 1655 01:21:46,560 --> 01:21:48,679 Speaker 1: is frustration with the lack of production. Hey, they're gonna 1656 01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:52,040 Speaker 1: be frustrated in Washington, they got issues on offense, quarterback issues. 1657 01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:56,360 Speaker 1: In our report today from Redskins reporter John Kim, for 1658 01:21:56,439 --> 01:22:00,519 Speaker 1: a second consecutive day, Dwayne Haskins has been taking the 1659 01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 1: first snaps among quarterbacks and individual drills, and then Colt McCoy, 1660 01:22:04,400 --> 01:22:07,640 Speaker 1: who's their third stringer, and then Case Keenum. They're gonna 1661 01:22:07,680 --> 01:22:11,400 Speaker 1: maybe give Dwayne Haskins his first NFL start, Steve based 1662 01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 1: on the way he has played in twenty two attempted 1663 01:22:14,360 --> 01:22:17,479 Speaker 1: passes for interceptions already in his NFL career. That's a 1664 01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:19,400 Speaker 1: big break for the Bills if it is Haskins. And 1665 01:22:19,439 --> 01:22:21,800 Speaker 1: it's not settled yet, but it's kind of trending in 1666 01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:23,640 Speaker 1: that direction. I think that would be huge for the 1667 01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:27,799 Speaker 1: Bills to face. Not that Case keenom's gonna scare anybody. 1668 01:22:27,800 --> 01:22:31,120 Speaker 1: Colt McCoy the same, But I just think the job 1669 01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:33,800 Speaker 1: has been too much so far for Dwayne Haskins, and 1670 01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:35,760 Speaker 1: I think the Buffalo defense may make it even more 1671 01:22:35,800 --> 01:22:39,040 Speaker 1: so this week. Well you'd like to think so, yeah, 1672 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:42,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think there's any question if you're 1673 01:22:42,680 --> 01:22:44,640 Speaker 1: if you're sitting out here like we are, you know, 1674 01:22:44,680 --> 01:22:46,639 Speaker 1: as far away as we are from the inner workings 1675 01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:49,599 Speaker 1: of how it works. I think if you're playing the Skins, 1676 01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:52,200 Speaker 1: you'd rather have Haskins in there. Oh, yes, right, yes, 1677 01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:55,400 Speaker 1: Because we've seen m Keendom got the Vikings the NFC 1678 01:22:55,560 --> 01:22:57,880 Speaker 1: Championship game, so something's in there that he can make 1679 01:22:57,920 --> 01:23:00,000 Speaker 1: it go. But man, oh man, Haskins was drafted free, 1680 01:23:00,120 --> 01:23:02,679 Speaker 1: got a lot of ability live arm, and you don't 1681 01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:05,040 Speaker 1: want him to catch lightning in a bottle against you. Yeah, 1682 01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:09,680 Speaker 1: there's all way. We've seen it happen, you know, over 1683 01:23:09,720 --> 01:23:11,439 Speaker 1: the course of the years we're here and there, not 1684 01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:14,320 Speaker 1: very often. You don't want it to be you. But 1685 01:23:14,920 --> 01:23:17,800 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna jump on and say, hey, 1686 01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:19,880 Speaker 1: if Haskins plays, there's no way we can lose, because 1687 01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:22,800 Speaker 1: I'm quite frankly, I haven't seen him guys like that win, 1688 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:27,040 Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna go there. But you'd still you're right, Hashkins. 1689 01:23:27,120 --> 01:23:29,000 Speaker 1: If Haskins is in there, I think it's a break 1690 01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:31,559 Speaker 1: for the Bills defense. Halloween question for our Twitter poll, 1691 01:23:31,640 --> 01:23:33,720 Speaker 1: what scares you the most about the Bills the rest 1692 01:23:33,760 --> 01:23:35,920 Speaker 1: of the season? On Twitter? We got almost seven hundred 1693 01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:38,519 Speaker 1: votes in so far. Fifty five percent of you say 1694 01:23:38,520 --> 01:23:40,920 Speaker 1: you're scared about the prospect of the Buffalo passing game 1695 01:23:41,280 --> 01:23:44,120 Speaker 1: never comes around. Twenty seven percent of you say you're 1696 01:23:44,120 --> 01:23:46,640 Speaker 1: scared that the defense takes a step back there was 1697 01:23:46,680 --> 01:23:50,200 Speaker 1: evidence of that against Philadelphia this past week. Twelve percent 1698 01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:52,400 Speaker 1: of you say you're scared about the tougher schedule ahead 1699 01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:54,720 Speaker 1: it is a little bit tougher, and five percent of 1700 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:56,880 Speaker 1: something else in mine. Let's go to the Tweetcheet brought 1701 01:23:56,960 --> 01:23:59,360 Speaker 1: here by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official movers of the 1702 01:23:59,360 --> 01:24:02,840 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill. Mike Crosby says, I chose other pre stamp 1703 01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:06,920 Speaker 1: penalties turnovers. The lack of sustained drives scare me the 1704 01:24:06,960 --> 01:24:09,639 Speaker 1: most going forward. We will cruise to a wild card 1705 01:24:09,720 --> 01:24:12,840 Speaker 1: birth if we remedie these issues. I trust our defense 1706 01:24:12,880 --> 01:24:15,720 Speaker 1: will get us back on track. Yeah, they got work 1707 01:24:15,760 --> 01:24:18,360 Speaker 1: to do, no question, penalties, turnovers. I do think they've 1708 01:24:18,400 --> 01:24:20,679 Speaker 1: had long sustained drives that has not been an issue 1709 01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:22,320 Speaker 1: for this team this year. But I got to fix 1710 01:24:22,360 --> 01:24:24,160 Speaker 1: some of those other issues. What else do you have 1711 01:24:24,160 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 1: to tweet? Che had it? What do with it? I 1712 01:24:26,439 --> 01:24:28,759 Speaker 1: was listening to you. Let me read number two from Thomas. 1713 01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:31,920 Speaker 1: I voted other long term injuries at key positions. He's 1714 01:24:31,920 --> 01:24:35,040 Speaker 1: scared about that. We've been fortunate in regard to injuries 1715 01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:38,240 Speaker 1: with a quarterback who's inclined to run, a center with 1716 01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:41,599 Speaker 1: a history of concussions and Beasley and Brown getting the 1717 01:24:41,600 --> 01:24:44,320 Speaker 1: majority of receiving yards. An injury to any one of 1718 01:24:44,360 --> 01:24:46,960 Speaker 1: them could be a disaster. That's true. You don't want 1719 01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:48,519 Speaker 1: to think about that, but that's true. Tweet I was 1720 01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:50,640 Speaker 1: reading was actually on the we hadn't printed it yet, 1721 01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:54,559 Speaker 1: and it says He's guy says I'm afraid of losing 1722 01:24:54,600 --> 01:24:59,160 Speaker 1: two straight home games, which is can you imagine that? 1723 01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,439 Speaker 1: How it's gonna be a dark Yeah, it's gonna be 1724 01:25:02,479 --> 01:25:05,160 Speaker 1: a dark day if they lose to this team. Yeah, 1725 01:25:05,240 --> 01:25:07,280 Speaker 1: they shouldn't lose. They should not lose to this game. 1726 01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:08,920 Speaker 1: This is a team and not only this, This should 1727 01:25:08,960 --> 01:25:13,840 Speaker 1: be a game where you win by two possessions. Right, 1728 01:25:15,080 --> 01:25:16,800 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say that. I don't believe in those 1729 01:25:16,880 --> 01:25:19,559 Speaker 1: kind of things. Look, I told you Watchington's defense. The 1730 01:25:19,600 --> 01:25:22,519 Speaker 1: front is pretty good, pretty good. They have issues. If 1731 01:25:22,560 --> 01:25:24,960 Speaker 1: they're starting Wayne Haskins, that's a major issue for them. 1732 01:25:25,320 --> 01:25:28,120 Speaker 1: But no, I don't say I don't like when people say, 1733 01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:30,080 Speaker 1: well they got to put up x amount of points 1734 01:25:30,120 --> 01:25:31,640 Speaker 1: or beat this team by X amount of points. You 1735 01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:33,920 Speaker 1: just take the win if you want to move on, 1736 01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:35,840 Speaker 1: no matter how it happens, no matter how much it's 1737 01:25:35,840 --> 01:25:38,280 Speaker 1: by take the win. And because when you when you 1738 01:25:38,320 --> 01:25:41,240 Speaker 1: don't meet that artificial standard that you've attempted to set 1739 01:25:41,320 --> 01:25:44,040 Speaker 1: up here, all of a sudden, the wind becomes a failure. Right, 1740 01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:47,000 Speaker 1: I don't think a win is ever a failure, ever 1741 01:25:47,080 --> 01:25:48,640 Speaker 1: a failure in the NFL. I agree with you and 1742 01:25:48,960 --> 01:25:52,200 Speaker 1: I we've learned here every win counts the same as 1743 01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:54,040 Speaker 1: every other win, whether you win by thirty or win 1744 01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:59,280 Speaker 1: by three. And yeah, so we'll definitely take it. But 1745 01:25:59,400 --> 01:26:02,640 Speaker 1: this is a game. You go two and one on 1746 01:26:02,640 --> 01:26:04,479 Speaker 1: this three game homestand and then you're gonna go off 1747 01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:07,519 Speaker 1: to Cleveland next week. And Cleveland is getting to the 1748 01:26:07,520 --> 01:26:10,280 Speaker 1: point where their season is gonna be on the brink. 1749 01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:12,760 Speaker 1: They're two and five. They're exactly the opposite of the Bills. 1750 01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:15,080 Speaker 1: They're two and five Bills or five and two. It'll 1751 01:26:15,080 --> 01:26:19,640 Speaker 1: be interesting to see what the happens to them this weekend. 1752 01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:24,200 Speaker 1: And they're talented, and like I said, it's a week 1753 01:26:24,240 --> 01:26:25,600 Speaker 1: to week league, and when you get a bunch of 1754 01:26:25,600 --> 01:26:28,240 Speaker 1: talented guys who are highly motivated, you get a game 1755 01:26:28,280 --> 01:26:30,439 Speaker 1: like you had against the Philadelphia Eagles, where those guys 1756 01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:33,839 Speaker 1: show up and play like a like a completely different 1757 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:35,840 Speaker 1: group of guys than they did the week before when 1758 01:26:35,920 --> 01:26:39,599 Speaker 1: Philly got their heads handed to them by Dallas. They 1759 01:26:39,600 --> 01:26:41,439 Speaker 1: were a completely different team in here. And it's all 1760 01:26:41,479 --> 01:26:43,680 Speaker 1: about the emotional content, and you got to find a 1761 01:26:43,720 --> 01:26:46,040 Speaker 1: way to dredge that up somehow. If you're the Bills, 1762 01:26:46,160 --> 01:26:47,880 Speaker 1: even here at home, where you got all these people 1763 01:26:47,880 --> 01:26:50,880 Speaker 1: behind you and it's all happy and smiles and rainbows, 1764 01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:54,400 Speaker 1: you got to you gotta dig up. You gotta dig 1765 01:26:54,439 --> 01:26:56,519 Speaker 1: up some emotional content to bring to the table, and 1766 01:26:56,560 --> 01:26:58,439 Speaker 1: the Bills didn't do that well enough last week.

We'll 1769 01:27:03,120 --> 01:27:05,280 Speaker 1: take more phone calls, maybe read a few more tweets, 1770 01:27:05,280 --> 01:27:07,720 Speaker 1: and kind of check in with the Jets. They got 1771 01:27:07,800 --> 01:27:10,200 Speaker 1: some interesting stuff going on. They should be scaring. Coming 1772 01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:12,360 Speaker 1: back One Bill's Live, presented by Kalaida Health from the 1773 01:27:12,400 --> 01:27:15,639 Speaker 1: Seneca Studio in Archer Park. This is Buffalo Bill's Radio. 1774 01:27:26,640 --> 01:27:29,160 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show. I just checked Bill. Still practicing, 1775 01:27:29,400 --> 01:27:31,280 Speaker 1: guest the It was a long practice today. Looked like 1776 01:27:31,320 --> 01:27:34,000 Speaker 1: it's going to be of some length as well. They're 1777 01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:37,200 Speaker 1: still practicing inside the ad Pro Sports Training Center, still 1778 01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:39,840 Speaker 1: raining and it's raining hard here in Archer Park today, 1779 01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:42,880 Speaker 1: Steve Hard, do you think the length of practice is 1780 01:27:42,920 --> 01:27:45,280 Speaker 1: a little bit of an old school move when I 1781 01:27:45,280 --> 01:27:47,639 Speaker 1: don't know, when you look bad on Sunday, I'm gonna 1782 01:27:47,720 --> 01:27:50,840 Speaker 1: feel bad on Wednesday Thursday. I don't know. Because mcdermot's 1783 01:27:50,840 --> 01:27:54,040 Speaker 1: pretty good about reading his team and what they need, 1784 01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:57,720 Speaker 1: and usually based on the first two years, sometimes they 1785 01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:00,000 Speaker 1: need to be spanked. Usually based on his first two years, 1786 01:28:00,080 --> 01:28:02,240 Speaker 1: says the season goes along, he scales back. I think 1787 01:28:02,240 --> 01:28:04,040 Speaker 1: on the length of practice, I don't know what's going on. 1788 01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:06,599 Speaker 1: Sometimes the kids need to be spanked in this behavior. 1789 01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:13,080 Speaker 1: Let the Philly Eagles Hank thirty one on him take 1790 01:28:13,120 --> 01:28:15,120 Speaker 1: a great I take a great deal of enjoyment out 1791 01:28:15,120 --> 01:28:17,400 Speaker 1: of the show, Steve talking about the bills, right, it's great. 1792 01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:19,200 Speaker 1: You know what, The second most enjoyable thing about this 1793 01:28:19,280 --> 01:28:22,080 Speaker 1: show is not talking poorly about the New York Jets. 1794 01:28:22,640 --> 01:28:25,040 Speaker 1: I love that's an added bonus. I love that we've 1795 01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:26,360 Speaker 1: been doing it for a while and they're off of 1796 01:28:26,439 --> 01:28:28,799 Speaker 1: this year and they're getting worse and jet safety. Jamal 1797 01:28:28,840 --> 01:28:31,559 Speaker 1: Adams is mad that he was talked about for the 1798 01:28:31,560 --> 01:28:35,240 Speaker 1: trade deadline. A Twitter attack on general manager Joe Douglas, 1799 01:28:35,280 --> 01:28:38,839 Speaker 1: who said he couldn't believe after talking to Joe Douglas 1800 01:28:39,080 --> 01:28:41,400 Speaker 1: before the trade deadline, couldn't believe that he was mentioned 1801 01:28:41,439 --> 01:28:45,120 Speaker 1: prominently in trade talks and yesterday Jets practice Jamal Adams 1802 01:28:45,120 --> 01:28:48,400 Speaker 1: they're outstanding safety talk to the media and he kind 1803 01:28:48,400 --> 01:28:50,679 Speaker 1: of doubled down on his criticism of their new GM. 1804 01:28:50,720 --> 01:28:55,240 Speaker 1: Here's Jamal Adams. But you know, I'll hold myself in 1805 01:28:55,280 --> 01:28:59,479 Speaker 1: a highway guard. I've done everything you know, they've asked 1806 01:28:59,479 --> 01:29:03,440 Speaker 1: me to do since I've been here for the three years. Um. 1807 01:29:03,680 --> 01:29:09,360 Speaker 1: You know I didn't take that light. I really didn't. Um. 1808 01:29:10,040 --> 01:29:11,920 Speaker 1: But you know when I when I when I heard that, 1809 01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:14,240 Speaker 1: I got the call that my agent called me and 1810 01:29:14,280 --> 01:29:17,760 Speaker 1: he told me what was going on. UM, you know, 1811 01:29:18,040 --> 01:29:21,040 Speaker 1: it definitely hurts me, you know what I mean. UM, 1812 01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:23,640 Speaker 1: I hold myself at a high level. You know, the 1813 01:29:23,760 --> 01:29:26,240 Speaker 1: Rams don't they don't they don't take calls on Aaron Donald, 1814 01:29:27,280 --> 01:29:29,720 Speaker 1: The Patriots don't take calls on Tom Brady. You know. 1815 01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:31,519 Speaker 1: I mean, that's where I hold myself in that regard. 1816 01:29:31,640 --> 01:29:35,320 Speaker 1: So regardless of I understand that you have a job 1817 01:29:35,360 --> 01:29:38,000 Speaker 1: to do. That's that's the way I took it. Beyond 1818 01:29:38,040 --> 01:29:40,040 Speaker 1: spoken Jamal Adams. We like that guy. They hit him 1819 01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:43,040 Speaker 1: on the show with the super dum. He's wrong in 1820 01:29:43,040 --> 01:29:45,080 Speaker 1: this instance. I don't know if he's Aaron Donald or 1821 01:29:45,120 --> 01:29:46,760 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, but he's very good. What do you think 1822 01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:50,599 Speaker 1: he's wrong about? But the general that nobody takes calls 1823 01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:53,120 Speaker 1: on those guys. If the phone rings, that GM is 1824 01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:58,280 Speaker 1: his job to pick it up. Yeah, and he should 1825 01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:01,960 Speaker 1: take it as a compliment a little bit, yea, you know. 1826 01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:05,559 Speaker 1: I mean he's the asset that people were calling about 1827 01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:11,160 Speaker 1: in the New York Jets. Robbie Anderson, No, it's Jamal Adams, Yeah, 1828 01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:14,320 Speaker 1: because he's a good player. And the Jets at this point, 1829 01:30:15,200 --> 01:30:17,240 Speaker 1: I mean, they're not doing anything with Sam Darnold. I'm 1830 01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:19,880 Speaker 1: not gonna do anything. You can't do anything with Levon Bell. C. J. 1831 01:30:20,080 --> 01:30:21,280 Speaker 1: Mosley has been in and out of the line. Of 1832 01:30:21,360 --> 01:30:24,240 Speaker 1: those three guys. You know, Jamal Adams is on that table. 1833 01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:27,439 Speaker 1: He's the only one healthy that's actually worth something to 1834 01:30:27,439 --> 01:30:30,519 Speaker 1: other teams that they could incorporate one thing to take calls. 1835 01:30:30,560 --> 01:30:34,439 Speaker 1: I get that. But Adams, even though he said taking calls, 1836 01:30:34,520 --> 01:30:36,400 Speaker 1: he's probably in the back of his mind thinking they 1837 01:30:36,400 --> 01:30:39,439 Speaker 1: were shopping me, and that made him upset. Is that 1838 01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:41,320 Speaker 1: fair to be upset about that? If the Jets are 1839 01:30:41,320 --> 01:30:44,880 Speaker 1: shopping him around even Yeah, I mean you can take 1840 01:30:44,920 --> 01:30:46,639 Speaker 1: it that way. You take anything you want that way. 1841 01:30:46,680 --> 01:30:48,360 Speaker 1: I mean I told you and players look for ways 1842 01:30:48,360 --> 01:30:50,360 Speaker 1: to get motivated. Maybe that's it. But he seems like 1843 01:30:50,360 --> 01:30:52,960 Speaker 1: one of those guys. Yeah it doesn't he but yeah, 1844 01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:58,000 Speaker 1: I get it. I And if that's the case, he's 1845 01:30:58,120 --> 01:31:00,519 Speaker 1: right to be upset if indeed the rest of what 1846 01:31:00,560 --> 01:31:06,040 Speaker 1: we have heard him about this this um situation is true. 1847 01:31:06,280 --> 01:31:08,519 Speaker 1: If indeed he set down and that general Manner didn't 1848 01:31:08,520 --> 01:31:10,200 Speaker 1: give him a heads up and said, hey, listen, we 1849 01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:14,120 Speaker 1: lose another game, we might use you to help us build, 1850 01:31:14,479 --> 01:31:16,920 Speaker 1: use it as an asset to help us build. Later on, 1851 01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:18,720 Speaker 1: we might have have you on the trade block and 1852 01:31:18,760 --> 01:31:21,400 Speaker 1: see what we can get for you. If if they 1853 01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:24,519 Speaker 1: did not give him a heads up, as they say, hey, listen, 1854 01:31:24,520 --> 01:31:26,720 Speaker 1: we might shop you. We might not, or but we 1855 01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:30,000 Speaker 1: will accept calls on you. Just keep the guy informed, right, 1856 01:31:30,880 --> 01:31:32,559 Speaker 1: The players don't mind about that if you tell them 1857 01:31:32,560 --> 01:31:34,360 Speaker 1: the heads up, say listen, we love you, we think 1858 01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:36,200 Speaker 1: you're one of our best players. That's why we expect 1859 01:31:36,200 --> 01:31:38,559 Speaker 1: to get calls about you. Yeah, one more thing. And 1860 01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:40,759 Speaker 1: as much as I like Jamal Adams, there's a certain 1861 01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:42,920 Speaker 1: you can speak to this as a former player. There's 1862 01:31:42,920 --> 01:31:45,719 Speaker 1: a certain level of maturity a player will hit where 1863 01:31:45,800 --> 01:31:48,880 Speaker 1: you approach these trade deadlines or cut down day or 1864 01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:50,920 Speaker 1: free agency when they go out and sign guys at 1865 01:31:50,960 --> 01:31:53,599 Speaker 1: your position, you approach them like, yeah, whatever, they're gonna 1866 01:31:53,600 --> 01:31:54,960 Speaker 1: do what they're gonna do, and I'm gonna go out 1867 01:31:54,960 --> 01:31:56,640 Speaker 1: and make it hard for them to deal with me. Right, 1868 01:31:56,680 --> 01:31:59,439 Speaker 1: I mean there's maturity that I don't know that Jamal 1869 01:31:59,520 --> 01:32:02,960 Speaker 1: Adams is displaying that right now when and those are 1870 01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:06,120 Speaker 1: critical time for a player. Trade deadline day, cut down 1871 01:32:06,200 --> 01:32:09,679 Speaker 1: day for free agency. You know, you can't whine because 1872 01:32:09,720 --> 01:32:11,200 Speaker 1: they went out and signed a free agent at your 1873 01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:14,200 Speaker 1: position or maybe drafted a guy that it looks like 1874 01:32:14,240 --> 01:32:16,120 Speaker 1: he could compete with you. Right, You just go out 1875 01:32:16,160 --> 01:32:17,880 Speaker 1: and play, and if you don't play here, you play there. 1876 01:32:18,160 --> 01:32:21,400 Speaker 1: You can be you can be unhappy or even upset 1877 01:32:22,160 --> 01:32:27,120 Speaker 1: with a situation but the team, but acting out is 1878 01:32:27,200 --> 01:32:30,320 Speaker 1: usually not the best Speaking out and acting out is 1879 01:32:30,400 --> 01:32:33,800 Speaker 1: usually not the best way to go, which is indicative. 1880 01:32:33,800 --> 01:32:36,040 Speaker 1: I think of what the situation is in New York 1881 01:32:36,280 --> 01:32:40,320 Speaker 1: and you've seen it other things. Yeah, Levion Bell, Antonio 1882 01:32:40,439 --> 01:32:44,160 Speaker 1: Brown now Trent Williams. They left tackle for the Washington Redskins. 1883 01:32:44,160 --> 01:32:46,560 Speaker 1: Co lets you assembly with the Jett. You assembly with 1884 01:32:46,600 --> 01:32:50,679 Speaker 1: the Jets that got out of control. If you want 1885 01:32:50,680 --> 01:32:53,320 Speaker 1: to be mature about it, you can either do it 1886 01:32:53,360 --> 01:32:56,600 Speaker 1: in person or have your agent call the guy upstairs. 1887 01:32:56,640 --> 01:32:58,160 Speaker 1: Like for I'm if I'm a Bills player, I have 1888 01:32:58,280 --> 01:32:59,960 Speaker 1: my agent say called Brandon be and say, hey, listen, 1889 01:33:00,040 --> 01:33:01,640 Speaker 1: here's how my guy feels about it.

Let your agent be your 1892 01:33:06,840 --> 01:33:08,680 Speaker 1: mouthpiece and just say hey, listen, you've got to call 1893 01:33:08,760 --> 01:33:11,040 Speaker 1: him and say listen, I ain't happy, and I'm not 1894 01:33:11,080 --> 01:33:13,519 Speaker 1: gonna say anything publicly, but I want you to know 1895 01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:17,720 Speaker 1: I want out or I want to whatever whatever.

I'm telling you, it's one 1903 01:33:36,520 --> 01:33:38,920 Speaker 1: of the best parts of the show. Watching the Jets crumble. 1904 01:33:39,840 --> 01:33:42,160 Speaker 1: I love it.

I don't think 1962 01:36:37,120 --> 01:36:40,000 Speaker 1: we've had him on the show since he signed. We 1963 01:36:40,040 --> 01:36:41,599 Speaker 1: had him on when he signed, I think over the phone, 1964 01:36:41,720 --> 01:36:46,240 Speaker 1: right over the phone, maybe that counts. But obviously he's 1965 01:36:46,320 --> 01:36:49,000 Speaker 1: after this long training camp. OTA's all us up. Even 1966 01:36:49,040 --> 01:36:52,400 Speaker 1: though he wasn't participating fully. I remember how frustrating it 1967 01:36:52,680 --> 01:36:54,840 Speaker 1: had to be for him coming off that foot injury. 1968 01:36:54,840 --> 01:36:58,400 Speaker 1: And then literally, like the first or second practice he 1969 01:36:58,479 --> 01:37:02,479 Speaker 1: was back off his foot injury, he tweaked his ankle 1970 01:37:02,560 --> 01:37:05,240 Speaker 1: and was out for another yeah, a week or so. 1971 01:37:05,600 --> 01:37:08,760 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, he had to be pulling his hair out. Yeah. Well, 1972 01:37:08,760 --> 01:37:11,400 Speaker 1: here from Tyler in a moment. Bill's players talking in 1973 01:37:11,439 --> 01:37:14,040 Speaker 1: the locker room this week, including tight end Lee Smith. 1974 01:37:14,520 --> 01:37:16,679 Speaker 1: In the locker room yesterday, the Bills tighten end Lee Smith, 1975 01:37:16,720 --> 01:37:19,680 Speaker 1: the veteran, was talked. Talked a little bit about the 1976 01:37:19,720 --> 01:37:22,320 Speaker 1: passing of the trade deadline, no moves made by the Bills, 1977 01:37:22,320 --> 01:37:24,519 Speaker 1: and what the message was for the players in that 1978 01:37:24,520 --> 01:37:26,960 Speaker 1: Buffalo locker room, the fact that the Bills stayed with 1979 01:37:26,640 --> 01:37:28,559 Speaker 1: a with a pat hand as far as the roster 1980 01:37:28,680 --> 01:37:33,200 Speaker 1: is concerned. Here's Lee Smith. When that deadline passes and 1981 01:37:33,240 --> 01:37:36,200 Speaker 1: you kind of getting grained into November and December football, 1982 01:37:36,200 --> 01:37:37,720 Speaker 1: and you know, these are the guys and these are 1983 01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:39,160 Speaker 1: the dudes that are you gonna be with going down 1984 01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:40,880 Speaker 1: the home stretch. And it's nice. It's nice to know 1985 01:37:40,960 --> 01:37:43,960 Speaker 1: that my brothers and guys that I've developed relationships with 1986 01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:45,880 Speaker 1: and add over my house for dinner, you know that 1987 01:37:46,120 --> 01:37:47,960 Speaker 1: we're gonna get to go finish this thing together for 1988 01:37:47,960 --> 01:37:49,360 Speaker 1: the rest of the season. So that's cool. Is the 1989 01:37:49,439 --> 01:37:51,160 Speaker 1: deadline different than when you started in the league? Is 1990 01:37:51,400 --> 01:37:53,519 Speaker 1: more of a thing than maybe it was seven years ago? 1991 01:37:53,640 --> 01:37:55,640 Speaker 1: Once again, man, I you know, for me personally, I 1992 01:37:56,000 --> 01:37:58,040 Speaker 1: truly don't pay much tention to it. Okay, yeah, I 1993 01:37:58,080 --> 01:38:00,479 Speaker 1: really don't, but you know, maybe some other guys do. 1994 01:38:00,600 --> 01:38:02,680 Speaker 1: You know, you can ask ask around. But you know, 1995 01:38:02,800 --> 01:38:04,920 Speaker 1: I know that, uh, that they built this football team 1996 01:38:04,920 --> 01:38:07,160 Speaker 1: the right way with good men's that are good football players, 1997 01:38:07,640 --> 01:38:09,519 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, we were a five and two 1998 01:38:09,520 --> 01:38:12,040 Speaker 1: football team. So um, at the end of the day, 1999 01:38:12,400 --> 01:38:14,760 Speaker 1: it's great to be a Buffalo Bill. It's great to 2000 01:38:15,200 --> 01:38:17,680 Speaker 1: get back to work here against Washington and uh and 2001 01:38:17,840 --> 01:38:19,600 Speaker 1: try to go one and oh this week. You know, 2002 01:38:19,800 --> 01:38:21,560 Speaker 1: But as far as the deadline being being kind of 2003 01:38:21,560 --> 01:38:24,320 Speaker 1: passed once again. You know, I've done it a long time. 2004 01:38:24,320 --> 01:38:26,760 Speaker 1: I've seeing guys go, seeing guys come in, and it's 2005 01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:29,160 Speaker 1: not to kind of love that the deducer in this 2006 01:38:29,200 --> 01:38:31,320 Speaker 1: locker room right now. This is the you know, November 2007 01:38:31,320 --> 01:38:34,400 Speaker 1: and December Buffalo Bill. So it's it's funny what Lee 2008 01:38:34,439 --> 01:38:37,880 Speaker 1: Smith says, Um, it sounds like the message that if 2009 01:38:37,880 --> 01:38:39,960 Speaker 1: I were the head coach, if I were Sean McDermott, 2010 01:38:40,120 --> 01:38:42,599 Speaker 1: I'd walk in there yesterday morning and deliver that message, 2011 01:38:42,640 --> 01:38:44,519 Speaker 1: you are our guys. We didn't make a move. You 2012 01:38:44,560 --> 01:38:46,800 Speaker 1: are the guys, right and and that would resonate. That 2013 01:38:46,800 --> 01:38:48,559 Speaker 1: would if you're in that locker room, one of the 2014 01:38:48,560 --> 01:38:51,559 Speaker 1: fifty three, you'd say, that's right, they didn't make a move. 2015 01:38:51,640 --> 01:38:54,000 Speaker 1: We got the great group here right, Yeah. And I 2016 01:38:54,479 --> 01:38:56,200 Speaker 1: think guys respond to that. I think that's the way 2017 01:38:56,240 --> 01:38:59,840 Speaker 1: you take it. Anything that happens with this magazine didn't 2018 01:39:00,000 --> 01:39:01,720 Speaker 1: think about it. This is a team that for some 2019 01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:03,840 Speaker 1: of these guys who've been here for the entire time 2020 01:39:03,840 --> 01:39:08,400 Speaker 1: of Sean McDermott's tenure or most of it, it's been 2021 01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:10,800 Speaker 1: pretty active here. You've always you've seen a lot of 2022 01:39:10,840 --> 01:39:14,479 Speaker 1: new faces rotate through and particularly this year on offense. 2023 01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:17,640 Speaker 1: There's nine new guys out there starting, so to have 2024 01:39:17,720 --> 01:39:20,880 Speaker 1: them say, Okay, you know what guys, you are guys, 2025 01:39:20,920 --> 01:39:23,280 Speaker 1: let's go, it's kind of cool. I think they've probably 2026 01:39:23,320 --> 01:39:26,880 Speaker 1: had a little bit of a a little thrill of 2027 01:39:26,920 --> 01:39:29,360 Speaker 1: adrenaline when you get through there say okay, here we go. Yeah, 2028 01:39:29,400 --> 01:39:31,559 Speaker 1: it's kind of cool. Yeah, particularly the guys they know 2029 01:39:31,640 --> 01:39:33,840 Speaker 1: so well. Colt Beasley talked about it as well. The 2030 01:39:33,880 --> 01:39:36,400 Speaker 1: Bills receiver Cole Beasley talked about the fact that the 2031 01:39:36,400 --> 01:39:39,240 Speaker 1: team did not add to the offensive part of the 2032 01:39:39,320 --> 01:39:43,920 Speaker 1: roster at the trade deadline. Let's listen in us as 2033 01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:46,080 Speaker 1: as players, you know, we know we have what we 2034 01:39:46,120 --> 01:39:48,639 Speaker 1: need in this room or in this locker room. So 2035 01:39:51,120 --> 01:39:53,200 Speaker 1: I mean, it definitely shows confidence that they didn't try 2036 01:39:53,200 --> 01:39:56,000 Speaker 1: to make a move, I guess, but you know, we 2037 01:39:56,000 --> 01:39:57,880 Speaker 1: don't worry about that as players. We just approached it 2038 01:39:57,920 --> 01:39:59,960 Speaker 1: each day, day in and day out, just trying to 2039 01:40:00,040 --> 01:40:03,640 Speaker 1: work to get better. And I feel like, you know, 2040 01:40:03,680 --> 01:40:05,479 Speaker 1: because we only we have nine new guys, we still 2041 01:40:05,520 --> 01:40:09,240 Speaker 1: have tons of room to grow, so um, and I 2042 01:40:09,240 --> 01:40:11,519 Speaker 1: think they understand that as well, and they understand that 2043 01:40:11,560 --> 01:40:15,160 Speaker 1: it takes time, so adding another new guy or just 2044 01:40:15,840 --> 01:40:17,960 Speaker 1: maybe slow things down a little bit as well, so 2045 01:40:18,000 --> 01:40:19,720 Speaker 1: when you can look at it from that perspective too. 2046 01:40:19,760 --> 01:40:22,000 Speaker 1: But um, you know, our job is just to show 2047 01:40:22,040 --> 01:40:23,880 Speaker 1: up and play and work each day to get better. 2048 01:40:24,040 --> 01:40:26,320 Speaker 1: Go O Beasley in the Buffalo locker room yesterday. Yeah, 2049 01:40:26,320 --> 01:40:28,040 Speaker 1: we added a guy who are set out here. He 2050 01:40:28,120 --> 01:40:30,559 Speaker 1: joined us now in the studio. Happy to have Bills 2051 01:40:30,560 --> 01:40:33,000 Speaker 1: ten and Tyler Craft with us. John Murphy, Steve Tansker 2052 01:40:33,080 --> 01:40:35,360 Speaker 1: and Bills ten and Tyler Kroft. Welcome, Tyler. I think 2053 01:40:35,360 --> 01:40:37,400 Speaker 1: we're just talking. You're on the phone with us around 2054 01:40:37,640 --> 01:40:39,320 Speaker 1: March when you signed this. First time we get your 2055 01:40:39,320 --> 01:40:41,559 Speaker 1: face to face out there. Thanks for doing this. Yeah, awesome, guys, 2056 01:40:41,560 --> 01:40:43,760 Speaker 1: thanks for having me. I was practiced today. I was great. Yeah. 2057 01:40:43,760 --> 01:40:45,479 Speaker 1: It was a lot of fun out there running around. Uh. 2058 01:40:45,680 --> 01:40:47,200 Speaker 1: I think we had some good energy out there and 2059 01:40:47,200 --> 01:40:49,120 Speaker 1: we got some things done, which was nice. Yeah, we've 2060 01:40:49,120 --> 01:40:51,200 Speaker 1: been you know, interesting because all Bills fans and us too, 2061 01:40:51,280 --> 01:40:52,960 Speaker 1: we've been watching waiting for you to come in and 2062 01:40:53,680 --> 01:40:55,760 Speaker 1: how it must have been really frustrating because you put 2063 01:40:55,760 --> 01:40:57,160 Speaker 1: in a lot of time on your foot injury. They 2064 01:40:57,200 --> 01:40:58,679 Speaker 1: knew that going in it was gonna be a while, 2065 01:40:58,680 --> 01:41:00,519 Speaker 1: but then when you finally got health of you. You 2066 01:41:00,640 --> 01:41:04,000 Speaker 1: tweak your man. You must have been just like you know, 2067 01:41:04,280 --> 01:41:07,360 Speaker 1: puking in the scene because you're so upset, but you 2068 01:41:07,439 --> 01:41:09,160 Speaker 1: finally got together. You've been in the last couple of games. 2069 01:41:09,200 --> 01:41:11,160 Speaker 1: How do you feel. Yeah, it feels great being out there. 2070 01:41:11,160 --> 01:41:12,320 Speaker 1: Like you said, it was a little bit of a 2071 01:41:12,360 --> 01:41:14,360 Speaker 1: long road getting out there. We had a speed bump 2072 01:41:14,360 --> 01:41:16,280 Speaker 1: in there a few weeks ago. But yeah, I mean 2073 01:41:16,320 --> 01:41:18,439 Speaker 1: it was awesome being out there. And uh yeah, I 2074 01:41:18,520 --> 01:41:21,479 Speaker 1: miss playing for sure. The injury, the first injury back 2075 01:41:21,479 --> 01:41:23,320 Speaker 1: in the spring, and then you had all the training camp. 2076 01:41:23,360 --> 01:41:25,040 Speaker 1: What was that like for you? To go to be 2077 01:41:25,120 --> 01:41:27,720 Speaker 1: at camp every day and to watch everybody you know 2078 01:41:27,800 --> 01:41:29,640 Speaker 1: working through the offense. It had to be difficult, I 2079 01:41:29,680 --> 01:41:32,280 Speaker 1: would think, even back then. Yeah, there's a there's a 2080 01:41:32,360 --> 01:41:35,400 Speaker 1: level of discomfort when in comfort when you're trying to 2081 01:41:35,479 --> 01:41:37,519 Speaker 1: learn a new offense, be around the guys and it's 2082 01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:39,559 Speaker 1: a whole new system. So I was part of that's 2083 01:41:39,560 --> 01:41:41,720 Speaker 1: feeling my way into it my first time going away 2084 01:41:41,760 --> 01:41:45,040 Speaker 1: for camps. There's a lot of new new experiences in there, 2085 01:41:45,080 --> 01:41:46,680 Speaker 1: and I was just trying to be the best I 2086 01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:49,040 Speaker 1: could each day, being as a tentative as I could 2087 01:41:49,080 --> 01:41:51,200 Speaker 1: in the film rooms because when I knew when I 2088 01:41:51,200 --> 01:41:52,800 Speaker 1: was coming back that the bullets are gonna be live 2089 01:41:52,840 --> 01:41:54,799 Speaker 1: and we had to be ready. And how how different 2090 01:41:54,880 --> 01:41:57,000 Speaker 1: doesn't have because I've been through it myself as a player. 2091 01:41:57,000 --> 01:41:59,800 Speaker 1: When you're watching, you're going through the film study, you're 2092 01:41:59,800 --> 01:42:02,679 Speaker 1: watching these guys practice, so you can't take any live reps. 2093 01:42:03,640 --> 01:42:05,360 Speaker 1: And then when you finally get do get on the 2094 01:42:05,360 --> 01:42:07,559 Speaker 1: field and you started working back into it, man, things 2095 01:42:07,600 --> 01:42:10,920 Speaker 1: accelerate really fast. Oh yeah, for sure. I said that 2096 01:42:10,960 --> 01:42:12,760 Speaker 1: everyone out there is getting paid, so the speed of 2097 01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:14,400 Speaker 1: the game is definitely gonna be up. It's the best 2098 01:42:14,400 --> 01:42:16,760 Speaker 1: of the best out there. So adapting that speed and 2099 01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:19,519 Speaker 1: getting used to it was obviously a process. Tyle you, 2100 01:42:19,680 --> 01:42:22,160 Speaker 1: I believe I'm just gonna think say this. I think 2101 01:42:22,200 --> 01:42:24,240 Speaker 1: you guys have an interesting tight end room with you. 2102 01:42:24,600 --> 01:42:26,080 Speaker 1: I've been in the league for a little bit now 2103 01:42:26,120 --> 01:42:28,719 Speaker 1: in your fifth year, a couple of rookies and Lee Smith, 2104 01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:33,040 Speaker 1: who's like everybody's grandfather, everybody's uncle maybe, right, what's it 2105 01:42:33,120 --> 01:42:34,760 Speaker 1: like with a composition in your room or maybe the 2106 01:42:34,800 --> 01:42:37,000 Speaker 1: different personalities in there? Yeah, it's I mean, we have 2107 01:42:37,040 --> 01:42:39,080 Speaker 1: a fun room. I love the room. We got there 2108 01:42:39,200 --> 01:42:41,439 Speaker 1: you said Lee's like the big uncle to everyone. He's 2109 01:42:41,760 --> 01:42:43,559 Speaker 1: I feel like the middle child in there a little bit. 2110 01:42:43,680 --> 01:42:45,320 Speaker 1: So you say, we got the rookies and we got 2111 01:42:45,400 --> 01:42:47,840 Speaker 1: big Lee, But I feel like everyone knows their role, 2112 01:42:47,960 --> 01:42:50,320 Speaker 1: everyone embraces their role there. There's I don't think we 2113 01:42:50,360 --> 01:42:52,320 Speaker 1: have a lot of me personalities in that room, which 2114 01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:54,200 Speaker 1: is awesome. We got a lot of guys that really 2115 01:42:54,240 --> 01:42:56,160 Speaker 1: care about each other and want each other to succeed. 2116 01:42:56,240 --> 01:42:58,000 Speaker 1: So I think that shows up on tape when you 2117 01:42:58,000 --> 01:42:59,519 Speaker 1: see it. You've been in the league for five years, 2118 01:42:59,520 --> 01:43:02,120 Speaker 1: so you've been and leave probably a conversation with him 2119 01:43:02,960 --> 01:43:05,920 Speaker 1: day ball, especially are in the season. I mean, they 2120 01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:09,000 Speaker 1: use different combinations you guys a lot. So you there's 2121 01:43:09,040 --> 01:43:11,840 Speaker 1: different you and Knox you and lead the three of 2122 01:43:11,880 --> 01:43:14,400 Speaker 1: you together and you know, so that's got to be 2123 01:43:14,479 --> 01:43:16,360 Speaker 1: kind of fun, but it's also kind of be some 2124 01:43:16,479 --> 01:43:19,880 Speaker 1: mental hoops. Is that part of what the entire offense 2125 01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:22,280 Speaker 1: is going through trying to get acclimated to all of that. Yeah, 2126 01:43:22,320 --> 01:43:23,880 Speaker 1: I would say we do. I think we'd do a 2127 01:43:23,880 --> 01:43:27,120 Speaker 1: good job at varying the personnel groups and just giving defenses, 2128 01:43:27,160 --> 01:43:29,599 Speaker 1: trying to keep them on their toes and having them 2129 01:43:29,600 --> 01:43:32,360 Speaker 1: make changes and checks based on the bigger guys on 2130 01:43:32,400 --> 01:43:35,960 Speaker 1: the field, obviously trying to put them in uncomfortable situations. 2131 01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:38,040 Speaker 1: But it's fun when you can get creative with that 2132 01:43:38,120 --> 01:43:39,960 Speaker 1: and see how we can attack the defense or with 2133 01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:42,040 Speaker 1: Tyler Cross Bills satan And, who had his first two 2134 01:43:42,120 --> 01:43:46,040 Speaker 1: receptions as a Buffalo Bill in Sunday's game against Philadelphia, 2135 01:43:46,200 --> 01:43:48,360 Speaker 1: tell us about that. Tyler. The first one was like 2136 01:43:48,400 --> 01:43:50,960 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three yards, right, you were able to really 2137 01:43:51,000 --> 01:43:52,560 Speaker 1: make a big play there, and I feel good to 2138 01:43:52,600 --> 01:43:54,479 Speaker 1: get that first catch in and make such a big 2139 01:43:54,479 --> 01:43:56,639 Speaker 1: play in that game. Yeah, for sure. Like you said, 2140 01:43:56,840 --> 01:43:58,760 Speaker 1: it was a long offseason, so getting out there and 2141 01:43:58,800 --> 01:44:01,519 Speaker 1: getting that first catch was a lot of ahead. See, 2142 01:44:01,720 --> 01:44:03,800 Speaker 1: I was gonna So what do you give us an 2143 01:44:03,800 --> 01:44:06,559 Speaker 1: idea about the atmosphere you lay about Buffalo the locker 2144 01:44:06,640 --> 01:44:08,519 Speaker 1: room you found it. He'd been here for a while. 2145 01:44:08,600 --> 01:44:10,639 Speaker 1: Now now you're kind of acclimated. I mean now, even 2146 01:44:10,640 --> 01:44:12,880 Speaker 1: though we're halfway through the season, I played that much. 2147 01:44:13,800 --> 01:44:16,000 Speaker 1: You're in the locker room every day. Tell us about 2148 01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:18,400 Speaker 1: the vibe on this team and what you feel like 2149 01:44:18,439 --> 01:44:20,479 Speaker 1: going forward the second half of the season. Yeah, I 2150 01:44:20,520 --> 01:44:22,639 Speaker 1: mean the vibe in the locker room's awesome. We got 2151 01:44:22,640 --> 01:44:24,400 Speaker 1: we got guys that really care about each other in 2152 01:44:24,400 --> 01:44:27,639 Speaker 1: that room. Everyone's talking to everyone Coach mc thurn, which 2153 01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:30,400 Speaker 1: is kind of unique. He likes to mix the defensive 2154 01:44:30,439 --> 01:44:32,280 Speaker 1: and offensive guys together, so you're not just kind of 2155 01:44:32,280 --> 01:44:35,080 Speaker 1: sitting in your own bubble of offensive players. I'm getting 2156 01:44:35,120 --> 01:44:37,439 Speaker 1: to I'm sitting with Mica and Trey White and stuff. 2157 01:44:37,479 --> 01:44:39,920 Speaker 1: So it's guys that I wouldn't maybe necessarily interact with 2158 01:44:40,000 --> 01:44:42,080 Speaker 1: day to day because our lives are so different in 2159 01:44:42,120 --> 01:44:44,280 Speaker 1: the building. But we're just around each other on the 2160 01:44:44,280 --> 01:44:45,760 Speaker 1: off time and stuff, and it's a lot of fun 2161 01:44:45,840 --> 01:44:48,160 Speaker 1: like interact and talking with them. Tyler, you played your 2162 01:44:48,200 --> 01:44:50,400 Speaker 1: first two games with the Bills over the last two weeks, 2163 01:44:50,400 --> 01:44:53,320 Speaker 1: but I think Van should acknowledge that you were a 2164 01:44:53,320 --> 01:44:56,040 Speaker 1: part of Bill's history back in twenty seventeen. You scored 2165 01:44:56,080 --> 01:44:59,280 Speaker 1: two touchdowns in the big victory over the Baltimore Ravens, Right, 2166 01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:01,240 Speaker 1: I mean you had a role to play. It wasn't 2167 01:45:01,280 --> 01:45:03,920 Speaker 1: just the last touchdown you You came up with two 2168 01:45:03,960 --> 01:45:05,920 Speaker 1: touchdowns in that game. Yeah, that was a lot of fun. 2169 01:45:05,960 --> 01:45:08,240 Speaker 1: I was appreciate that. Yeah, that was a lot of 2170 01:45:08,240 --> 01:45:11,000 Speaker 1: fun out there. Um. Yeah, he says a few years ago. 2171 01:45:11,000 --> 01:45:13,080 Speaker 1: I remember getting those wings sent to us after the games, 2172 01:45:13,280 --> 01:45:15,320 Speaker 1: you guys, So yeah, that was that was a lot 2173 01:45:15,360 --> 01:45:18,000 Speaker 1: of fun. What motivated the Bengals that day? What kept 2174 01:45:18,040 --> 01:45:20,000 Speaker 1: you guys into that game right down to the bitter 2175 01:45:20,080 --> 01:45:23,160 Speaker 1: end there? We always we take pride in finishing out seasons, 2176 01:45:23,160 --> 01:45:24,800 Speaker 1: and that's something I'd take a lot of pride on 2177 01:45:24,840 --> 01:45:27,120 Speaker 1: finishing out games, finishing out seasons the right way. So 2178 01:45:27,400 --> 01:45:28,720 Speaker 1: we knew we wanted to go out there and put 2179 01:45:28,800 --> 01:45:30,840 Speaker 1: great stuff on tape in that final week. And they're 2180 01:45:31,200 --> 01:45:33,800 Speaker 1: Baltimore and since he always has a good rivalries that 2181 01:45:34,200 --> 01:45:36,160 Speaker 1: Buffalo and all on the back of anybody's mind, like 2182 01:45:36,200 --> 01:45:38,479 Speaker 1: you knew would have an impact on that, right, Yeah, 2183 01:45:38,520 --> 01:45:40,120 Speaker 1: we knew, we knew what was going to happen if 2184 01:45:40,120 --> 01:45:42,000 Speaker 1: we won that game, how we would all shake out. 2185 01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:44,439 Speaker 1: But it was more we just loved that rivalry when 2186 01:45:44,600 --> 01:45:46,160 Speaker 1: when I was there, when I was working I worked 2187 01:45:46,200 --> 01:45:49,280 Speaker 1: with CBS for two decades, covered the Bengals a lot. 2188 01:45:49,360 --> 01:45:52,120 Speaker 1: You were Marvin Lewis and he since I was a 2189 01:45:52,120 --> 01:45:54,280 Speaker 1: tough place to play in a lot of ways. But 2190 01:45:54,640 --> 01:45:56,599 Speaker 1: tell me about your experience with Marvin. I always thought 2191 01:45:56,600 --> 01:45:58,600 Speaker 1: he was a really quality coach. He's not in the 2192 01:45:58,640 --> 01:46:01,000 Speaker 1: league right now, but but he had a really good 2193 01:46:01,040 --> 01:46:02,920 Speaker 1: run there in Cincinnati, and you were there for for 2194 01:46:02,960 --> 01:46:05,599 Speaker 1: the last five years of it. Yeah, four years. Yeah. 2195 01:46:06,360 --> 01:46:08,599 Speaker 1: I mean, I can't say enough good things about coach Lewis. 2196 01:46:08,640 --> 01:46:10,800 Speaker 1: I think he did an awesome job with me and 2197 01:46:10,800 --> 01:46:13,960 Speaker 1: he very personable. Honestly, I don't really have a bad 2198 01:46:13,960 --> 01:46:16,840 Speaker 1: thing to say about coach Lou. Philure is great dude. 2199 01:46:16,840 --> 01:46:19,040 Speaker 1: I think he's out in Arizona now. He was helping him, 2200 01:46:19,680 --> 01:46:22,599 Speaker 1: helping herm Edwards. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so he's out there. 2201 01:46:22,720 --> 01:46:25,320 Speaker 1: Uh yeah.

He Tyler, we're talking about 2204 01:46:29,640 --> 01:46:33,519 Speaker 1: the spectacular finish the Bengals and the Ravens two years ago, 2205 01:46:33,840 --> 01:46:38,640 Speaker 1: and our research staff they're amazing. Came up with a 2206 01:46:38,720 --> 01:46:41,000 Speaker 1: high school game that you played in for Downington East 2207 01:46:41,240 --> 01:46:44,759 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, A big game against Pencriss right, thirty seven 2208 01:46:44,800 --> 01:46:47,280 Speaker 1: seconds left. Can you describe I think we have some 2209 01:46:47,320 --> 01:46:49,800 Speaker 1: of the plays that folks are watching on the This 2210 01:46:49,880 --> 01:46:52,560 Speaker 1: is a pass that grows through your hands and is 2211 01:46:52,600 --> 01:46:55,640 Speaker 1: intercepted for a touchdown. It puts you talk about it. 2212 01:46:55,680 --> 01:46:58,080 Speaker 1: Tell me what the circumstance was you, Yeah, it was 2213 01:46:58,160 --> 01:46:59,880 Speaker 1: we were trying to get the final drive of the game. 2214 01:47:00,000 --> 01:47:03,240 Speaker 1: We ended up throwing a pick six with about thirty 2215 01:47:03,240 --> 01:47:05,360 Speaker 1: seconds left. We threw a few hitch routes to get 2216 01:47:05,400 --> 01:47:06,880 Speaker 1: us down the field and then this was the last 2217 01:47:06,880 --> 01:47:09,519 Speaker 1: play of the game where jumping up over the top 2218 01:47:09,560 --> 01:47:11,320 Speaker 1: of them, and uh yeah, we ended up playing the game. 2219 01:47:11,360 --> 01:47:12,439 Speaker 1: That was a lot of fun there, and we went 2220 01:47:12,479 --> 01:47:14,920 Speaker 1: for two and ended up taking the win there to 2221 01:47:14,920 --> 01:47:17,320 Speaker 1: get forty nine forty eight, which was awesome. What a finish. Ah, 2222 01:47:17,360 --> 01:47:19,240 Speaker 1: you went for two, went for two, and you got 2223 01:47:19,280 --> 01:47:21,120 Speaker 1: the two pointer here. Yeah, running back broke a few 2224 01:47:21,120 --> 01:47:24,280 Speaker 1: tackles here. Got to be one of your favor games, 2225 01:47:24,280 --> 01:47:26,439 Speaker 1: I think, right, Yeah, it was a fun girl, fun 2226 01:47:26,520 --> 01:47:29,200 Speaker 1: game right there. I was thinking last week Downington is 2227 01:47:29,240 --> 01:47:31,840 Speaker 1: near Philadelphia, where you did you grow up an Eagles fans? Yeah? 2228 01:47:31,920 --> 01:47:34,160 Speaker 1: We play I Uh yeah, I grew up watching the Eagles, 2229 01:47:34,439 --> 01:47:37,280 Speaker 1: watching McNabb and those guys. But yes, that was fun 2230 01:47:37,360 --> 01:47:40,320 Speaker 1: watching them the day. All right. Yeah, last question for me. 2231 01:47:40,400 --> 01:47:42,960 Speaker 1: You got the Washington Ridskins coming in. You got hit 2232 01:47:43,040 --> 01:47:45,000 Speaker 1: in the mouth by the Eagles, you could tip field 2233 01:47:45,000 --> 01:47:48,519 Speaker 1: they were embarrassed and most highly motivated coming in. This 2234 01:47:48,640 --> 01:47:50,800 Speaker 1: Washington team could be the same thing. Don't know who 2235 01:47:50,800 --> 01:47:52,479 Speaker 1: you're going to see at quarterback, but what's the vibe, 2236 01:47:52,479 --> 01:47:55,000 Speaker 1: what's your message or has been the message from the 2237 01:47:55,040 --> 01:47:57,639 Speaker 1: coaching staff about getting ready for these guys. We're gonna 2238 01:47:57,760 --> 01:47:59,720 Speaker 1: zero win on fundamentals and we got to go out 2239 01:47:59,760 --> 01:48:01,519 Speaker 1: there and just play our quality of game. We got 2240 01:48:01,640 --> 01:48:03,400 Speaker 1: to we're blocking out a lot of the noise, the 2241 01:48:03,439 --> 01:48:05,519 Speaker 1: extra stuff, and we just were zeroing in and really 2242 01:48:05,520 --> 01:48:08,000 Speaker 1: focusing on what we can control, because at the end 2243 01:48:08,000 --> 01:48:10,120 Speaker 1: of the day, that's what we can control. So we're 2244 01:48:10,160 --> 01:48:13,160 Speaker 1: honing in on the fundamentals to make sure everything's looking 2245 01:48:13,240 --> 01:48:14,600 Speaker 1: right and just so we can go out there and 2246 01:48:14,640 --> 01:48:16,600 Speaker 1: play a complete full game, blocking health the noise. Do 2247 01:48:16,680 --> 01:48:22,679 Speaker 1: you consider us good? Thank you, Hey Tyler, Thanks thanks 2248 01:48:22,680 --> 01:48:25,519 Speaker 1: for coming in, hanging Toler Bills tight and joining us. 2249 01:48:25,520 --> 01:48:27,920 Speaker 1: We're coming back in a moment One Bills Live, presented 2250 01:48:27,920 --> 01:48:42,519 Speaker 1: by Collat of Health on Buffalo Bill's Radio. Welcome Back 2251 01:48:42,520 --> 01:48:45,320 Speaker 1: One Bial's Live, John Murphy, Steve Tasker, Bills have wrapped 2252 01:48:45,400 --> 01:48:49,000 Speaker 1: up there Thursday practice one more full day of practice today. 2253 01:48:48,680 --> 01:48:51,040 Speaker 1: The Washington practice is the one to watch in the 2254 01:48:51,080 --> 01:48:54,240 Speaker 1: quarterback situation there. With Dwayne Haskins getting the number one 2255 01:48:54,560 --> 01:48:57,880 Speaker 1: quarterback reps again today, maybe on on schedule for his 2256 01:48:57,960 --> 01:49:01,799 Speaker 1: first NFL start coming up here Sunday, that will be interesting. 2257 01:49:01,960 --> 01:49:04,200 Speaker 1: He's not saying, and I don't know if that they've 2258 01:49:04,240 --> 01:49:08,479 Speaker 1: even made their decision yet, but it an old coach 2259 01:49:08,600 --> 01:49:13,880 Speaker 1: told me the reason backup quarterbacks don't get any reps 2260 01:49:14,000 --> 01:49:15,920 Speaker 1: is you don't want to get two guys half ready 2261 01:49:15,920 --> 01:49:18,880 Speaker 1: to play. You gotta get somebody ready to play, all 2262 01:49:18,880 --> 01:49:21,200 Speaker 1: ready to play. So that's usually your starter. So there 2263 01:49:21,240 --> 01:49:23,760 Speaker 1: you go. So that leads you to believe it will 2264 01:49:23,800 --> 01:49:25,960 Speaker 1: be Haskinson. I think so, yeah. I mean, why would 2265 01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:29,320 Speaker 1: you why would you be spreading reps around now if 2266 01:49:29,320 --> 01:49:31,680 Speaker 1: he's not going to play and Keenham is still in 2267 01:49:31,720 --> 01:49:35,000 Speaker 1: concussion protocol and it's not a you know, Keenam's not 2268 01:49:35,040 --> 01:49:38,599 Speaker 1: a world beater either, but Haskins has really struggled. Twenty 2269 01:49:38,600 --> 01:49:42,880 Speaker 1: two pass attempts for interceptions thrown. He's really struggled to 2270 01:49:42,960 --> 01:49:45,120 Speaker 1: the point where, you know, people wonder if he is 2271 01:49:45,200 --> 01:49:47,120 Speaker 1: fully immersed in the playbook down there. I don't know, 2272 01:49:47,160 --> 01:49:49,599 Speaker 1: we'll see watching him coming in here Sunday at one. 2273 01:49:50,000 --> 01:49:51,960 Speaker 1: We're asking you on this Halloween what scares you the 2274 01:49:51,960 --> 01:49:54,439 Speaker 1: most about the Bills the rest of the season? Eighth 2275 01:49:55,120 --> 01:49:58,360 Speaker 1: fifty to three, one eight eight, five fifty two, five fifty. 2276 01:49:58,520 --> 01:50:01,400 Speaker 1: You gotta call here from Wood, Rochester. Hello. What is 2277 01:50:01,439 --> 01:50:05,320 Speaker 1: that your name? Wood? Yes, sir, how are you Wood? Thanks? 2278 01:50:05,320 --> 01:50:09,160 Speaker 1: Coming on, I'm good. He's an honor to speak with 2279 01:50:09,240 --> 01:50:11,719 Speaker 1: both of you. Thank you. I was born and raised. 2280 01:50:12,320 --> 01:50:15,639 Speaker 1: I was born and raised in Buffalo, Okay. I used 2281 01:50:15,680 --> 01:50:20,439 Speaker 1: to go to the block pile on Jefferson at High Street. Yeah, 2282 01:50:20,479 --> 01:50:23,519 Speaker 1: I did too, And I remember Kansas City came in 2283 01:50:23,640 --> 01:50:26,200 Speaker 1: and beat Buffaloes, shut them out. I was there. No, 2284 01:50:26,240 --> 01:50:28,559 Speaker 1: they beat him thirty one to seven an AFL championship game. 2285 01:50:28,600 --> 01:50:31,800 Speaker 1: Is that the game you're talking about? Yeah, I'm not sure. 2286 01:50:31,920 --> 01:50:34,120 Speaker 1: My uncle took me. I didn't know what football was about. 2287 01:50:34,760 --> 01:50:36,200 Speaker 1: My father took me and I him right in the 2288 01:50:36,200 --> 01:50:38,240 Speaker 1: same boat with you. I think it was nine years 2289 01:50:38,240 --> 01:50:41,320 Speaker 1: old at the time. What's up, Wood? What's up today? 2290 01:50:41,320 --> 01:50:43,960 Speaker 1: What do you want to talk about? I want to 2291 01:50:44,000 --> 01:50:50,719 Speaker 1: talk about an imagination about if we drafted or traded 2292 01:50:50,800 --> 01:50:55,720 Speaker 1: for a past rusher or a run stopper. What would 2293 01:50:55,760 --> 01:50:59,520 Speaker 1: you guys suggest we do to stop an old quarterback 2294 01:50:59,720 --> 01:51:04,680 Speaker 1: and a young quarterback from gouging us like he did. 2295 01:51:04,240 --> 01:51:07,600 Speaker 1: They heard us, and we need a remedy for that. 2296 01:51:07,800 --> 01:51:11,000 Speaker 1: People watched the tape, they can see that those two 2297 01:51:11,080 --> 01:51:13,960 Speaker 1: quarterbacks heard us. Which two which you're talking about the 2298 01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:20,360 Speaker 1: fourth quarter rushes by Carson Wentz, Fitzpatrick and Fitzpatrick. Yeah, 2299 01:51:20,400 --> 01:51:24,600 Speaker 1: you're right, Um, I agree with you. Those scrambles that 2300 01:51:24,680 --> 01:51:27,400 Speaker 1: they got in the game, particularly the ones by Wentz 2301 01:51:27,479 --> 01:51:32,000 Speaker 1: really hurt us because, uh, well he did him at 2302 01:51:32,040 --> 01:51:34,000 Speaker 1: the right time. Let's face it, that that was that 2303 01:51:34,080 --> 01:51:37,000 Speaker 1: was a squasher. Um. They had their hands all over 2304 01:51:37,080 --> 01:51:39,919 Speaker 1: Fits before he ran in fifteen yards for his touchdown 2305 01:51:40,000 --> 01:51:43,920 Speaker 1: late in that game against Miami as well. I think 2306 01:51:43,920 --> 01:51:46,200 Speaker 1: it was was a shack or was it Jerry Hughes 2307 01:51:46,200 --> 01:51:50,439 Speaker 1: who had him and couldn't hang on, And that's that's 2308 01:51:50,479 --> 01:51:53,519 Speaker 1: pretty frustrating. So you know, it's hard to look at, like, 2309 01:51:53,600 --> 01:51:55,880 Speaker 1: for instance, the scheme and say it didn't work because 2310 01:51:55,880 --> 01:51:58,000 Speaker 1: they had a guy free on the quarterback with his 2311 01:51:58,040 --> 01:52:02,320 Speaker 1: hands around his waist and he couldn't hang on. So 2312 01:52:02,720 --> 01:52:04,800 Speaker 1: if you're if you're looking asking me what I do 2313 01:52:04,840 --> 01:52:07,200 Speaker 1: against a quarterback that can run. Against a quarterback that 2314 01:52:07,240 --> 01:52:10,640 Speaker 1: cannot run, You're right, there's some different techniques that you 2315 01:52:10,760 --> 01:52:13,880 Speaker 1: use for both of those. For a quarterback that can run, 2316 01:52:13,960 --> 01:52:17,240 Speaker 1: you have your defensive lineman stay in stay in their 2317 01:52:17,280 --> 01:52:21,280 Speaker 1: passing lanes. You don't open up any any play gaps 2318 01:52:21,280 --> 01:52:24,240 Speaker 1: for them to break through, and you don't let him 2319 01:52:24,320 --> 01:52:28,040 Speaker 1: rush deeper than the quarterback. You keep him right where 2320 01:52:28,040 --> 01:52:31,200 Speaker 1: he is in the pocket. For a guy who can't run, 2321 01:52:32,439 --> 01:52:35,080 Speaker 1: you do just the opposite. You do everything you can 2322 01:52:35,120 --> 01:52:38,599 Speaker 1: to make him have to run. You do X's twists, stunts, 2323 01:52:39,600 --> 01:52:42,400 Speaker 1: you overload one side, you make him shuffle, you make 2324 01:52:42,479 --> 01:52:45,800 Speaker 1: him move his feet, with the thought being that a 2325 01:52:45,840 --> 01:52:48,920 Speaker 1: guy who doesn't run doesn't learn how to throw the 2326 01:52:48,960 --> 01:52:51,960 Speaker 1: football when he does run, and a guy who runs 2327 01:52:52,000 --> 01:52:55,040 Speaker 1: all the time isn't used to stand in the pocket 2328 01:52:55,080 --> 01:52:57,280 Speaker 1: and beating people. So you get him to do the 2329 01:52:57,360 --> 01:52:59,599 Speaker 1: thing that they're not very good at or haven't practiced 2330 01:52:59,600 --> 01:53:02,240 Speaker 1: as much do their own natural abilities. There you go, 2331 01:53:02,400 --> 01:53:07,040 Speaker 1: Thanks for your call. Let's go to Terry in Honolulu. Hello, Terry, 2332 01:53:07,040 --> 01:53:12,400 Speaker 1: Welcome to the show. Hi guys. Thanks, Just two quick 2333 01:53:12,439 --> 01:53:16,160 Speaker 1: comments about the things that scare me the most offense, 2334 01:53:16,240 --> 01:53:19,879 Speaker 1: one for one for defense, for defense. I think twice 2335 01:53:20,080 --> 01:53:23,400 Speaker 1: we lined up in the neutral zone, and I remember 2336 01:53:23,479 --> 01:53:27,320 Speaker 1: junior high football, just stunned that my friends would line 2337 01:53:27,400 --> 01:53:30,559 Speaker 1: up in the neutral zone. The ball is there, don't 2338 01:53:30,640 --> 01:53:33,240 Speaker 1: do that. It's got to be the end, you know. 2339 01:53:33,479 --> 01:53:36,800 Speaker 1: It's just to me, that's always been the most unforgivable 2340 01:53:37,080 --> 01:53:43,040 Speaker 1: penalty in football. Agreed, offensive, thank you thanking. The offense 2341 01:53:43,120 --> 01:53:47,320 Speaker 1: that scares me the most is frankly, the fans, because 2342 01:53:47,360 --> 01:53:51,439 Speaker 1: everyone is talking about play calling and table and it 2343 01:53:51,520 --> 01:53:53,800 Speaker 1: seems to me we should have a Lawrence Horreum on 2344 01:53:54,000 --> 01:54:00,120 Speaker 1: complaining until our players are above the curve and pre 2345 01:54:00,200 --> 01:54:05,559 Speaker 1: snap penalties and above the curve and turnovers. Because with 2346 01:54:05,680 --> 01:54:07,160 Speaker 1: all that, I don't see how you can say, oh, 2347 01:54:07,240 --> 01:54:10,080 Speaker 1: it must be the play calling. That seems preposterous to me. 2348 01:54:10,160 --> 01:54:16,720 Speaker 1: But anyway, those are my comments. Yeah, we have not um. Look, 2349 01:54:16,760 --> 01:54:18,439 Speaker 1: people can see what they want, to think what they want. 2350 01:54:18,439 --> 01:54:21,960 Speaker 1: We encourage that. But the play call complaint, which has 2351 01:54:22,080 --> 01:54:25,160 Speaker 1: been here since Monday now four day, don't actually nothing. Today. 2352 01:54:25,840 --> 01:54:28,800 Speaker 1: I think we've invalidate invalidated that as much as we 2353 01:54:28,840 --> 01:54:32,000 Speaker 1: could this week. See you agree, he makes some great points. 2354 01:54:32,040 --> 01:54:34,760 Speaker 1: The reason, Yeah, don't call out the playbook until the 2355 01:54:34,800 --> 01:54:37,880 Speaker 1: players start executing it the right way. I mean, you've 2356 01:54:37,880 --> 01:54:39,840 Speaker 1: got players admitting to run the wrong routes. You've got 2357 01:54:39,840 --> 01:54:42,080 Speaker 1: players that are committing holding penalty. You've got players lining 2358 01:54:42,160 --> 01:54:46,280 Speaker 1: up off sides, you got players jumping off sides. Um. Yeah, 2359 01:54:46,680 --> 01:54:48,840 Speaker 1: let's see him run the places that are called without 2360 01:54:48,880 --> 01:54:51,880 Speaker 1: mistakes before we criticize the play calls. You got a 2361 01:54:51,960 --> 01:54:55,320 Speaker 1: quarterback running the ball and on a play that's been 2362 01:54:55,360 --> 01:54:57,880 Speaker 1: successful in the past and he coughs it up. Um, 2363 01:54:58,160 --> 01:55:01,600 Speaker 1: you can't do that. And that's not that play call 2364 01:55:01,720 --> 01:55:04,120 Speaker 1: is not on the coaching staff. That's the execution problem 2365 01:55:04,160 --> 01:55:06,680 Speaker 1: of the players. They need to fix that, no question 2366 01:55:06,720 --> 01:55:11,680 Speaker 1: about it. And he's right. The penalty's pre snap man, 2367 01:55:12,400 --> 01:55:16,720 Speaker 1: that's a crushers crusher penalties free snap. Here's an interesting 2368 01:55:16,720 --> 01:55:20,160 Speaker 1: call from Tim and Olean. Hi, Tim, welcome, gentlemen. How 2369 01:55:20,160 --> 01:55:23,120 Speaker 1: are we doing? Okay? Good?

On Twitter, Steve Tasker, what do you got there? All? Right? 2400 01:56:57,320 --> 01:57:00,600 Speaker 1: From from Multi Big Multi, says other Multi. What scares 2401 01:57:00,640 --> 01:57:02,720 Speaker 1: me is that we struggle scoring points. We're number one 2402 01:57:02,720 --> 01:57:04,560 Speaker 1: in red zone scoring, but we rarely get there. This 2403 01:57:04,640 --> 01:57:07,720 Speaker 1: coincides with the other choices. If passing game doesn't get better, 2404 01:57:07,800 --> 01:57:09,800 Speaker 1: we don't score. If defense takes a step back, we 2405 01:57:09,840 --> 01:57:15,640 Speaker 1: don't score. Tougher schedule we need to score the right 2406 01:57:16,400 --> 01:57:18,600 Speaker 1: It's hard to argue with it. Yep, it's good logic 2407 01:57:18,640 --> 01:57:21,880 Speaker 1: and it also it passes the eye test as well. 2408 01:57:21,960 --> 01:57:25,040 Speaker 1: So I'm I'm with you. If they don't play better, 2409 01:57:25,560 --> 01:57:28,160 Speaker 1: this tougher schedule is going to be their downfall. It 2410 01:57:28,280 --> 01:57:31,120 Speaker 1: is um I'm not gonna say. It's mind boggling, and 2411 01:57:31,160 --> 01:57:35,040 Speaker 1: I know it's obviously possible and mathematically certainly, but to 2412 01:57:35,120 --> 01:57:37,560 Speaker 1: be the number one touchdown scoring team in the red 2413 01:57:37,640 --> 01:57:40,680 Speaker 1: zone and score as little as the Bills do. Yeah, 2414 01:57:40,720 --> 01:57:43,400 Speaker 1: it's close to being mind boggling. They just don't get there, right, 2415 01:57:43,440 --> 01:57:45,160 Speaker 1: They just don't get there and turn it over. They've 2416 01:57:45,160 --> 01:57:48,120 Speaker 1: had the long drives that what ten of their thirteen 2417 01:57:48,160 --> 01:57:51,200 Speaker 1: scoring touchdown drives have been seventy five yards or longer? 2418 01:57:51,240 --> 01:57:55,400 Speaker 1: They have the long drives. They have virtually no explosive 2419 01:57:55,400 --> 01:57:58,680 Speaker 1: place for touchdowns long plays. But it's crazy to be 2420 01:57:58,720 --> 01:58:00,800 Speaker 1: that good in the red zone producing touchdowns and have 2421 01:58:00,880 --> 01:58:04,120 Speaker 1: so few points. It's it makes you pause. You're like, what, 2422 01:58:04,440 --> 01:58:07,080 Speaker 1: they can't turn it over? Yeah, they can't turn it over. 2423 01:58:07,920 --> 01:58:12,640 Speaker 1: They fumbles, interceptions, you can't do it. One more from 2424 01:58:12,680 --> 01:58:15,080 Speaker 1: the tweet sheet. What scares you the most on this Halloween? 2425 01:58:15,080 --> 01:58:16,720 Speaker 1: What scares you the most about the Bills the rest 2426 01:58:16,760 --> 01:58:19,040 Speaker 1: of the season. Mex tweets this and has to be 2427 01:58:19,120 --> 01:58:21,120 Speaker 1: the pass game, not stepping out More than anything, I 2428 01:58:21,120 --> 01:58:23,560 Speaker 1: want Josh to be that franchise guy that makes us 2429 01:58:23,640 --> 01:58:26,360 Speaker 1: competitive year in and year out. If he doesn't continue 2430 01:58:26,400 --> 01:58:28,920 Speaker 1: to develop and the process has to start over again, 2431 01:58:29,160 --> 01:58:32,040 Speaker 1: that's scary to think about. Keep progressing. He's right, and 2432 01:58:32,160 --> 01:58:34,600 Speaker 1: I'm not there yet, and I am fairly confident that 2433 01:58:34,680 --> 01:58:37,640 Speaker 1: Josh Allen will get better because he has improved. He 2434 01:58:37,720 --> 01:58:39,680 Speaker 1: is better now than he was a year ago. But 2435 01:58:40,440 --> 01:58:43,720 Speaker 1: the next step is it's due for Josh Allen, right, 2436 01:58:44,480 --> 01:58:48,480 Speaker 1: I believe it is protecting the ball, reading defenses, making 2437 01:58:48,480 --> 01:58:50,680 Speaker 1: the right reads, and getting rid of the ball on 2438 01:58:50,760 --> 01:58:54,640 Speaker 1: time and on target. The next step is due for him, Yeah, Sunday. 2439 01:58:54,720 --> 01:58:57,080 Speaker 1: And there's the problem is some of the steps are 2440 01:58:57,080 --> 01:58:59,640 Speaker 1: mental steps, and some of the more physical steps the 2441 01:58:59,680 --> 01:59:02,960 Speaker 1: turn over our physical steps, the fumbling and stuff. You 2442 01:59:02,960 --> 01:59:04,760 Speaker 1: got to protect the football when you're carrying it around, 2443 01:59:05,040 --> 01:59:09,120 Speaker 1: and that's a physical thing. Mentally, though, all the other 2444 01:59:09,120 --> 01:59:13,520 Speaker 1: stuff we've talked about, the decision making, reading the defenses, 2445 01:59:13,560 --> 01:59:15,640 Speaker 1: the pre snap checks, all of that stuff, you know, 2446 01:59:15,680 --> 01:59:18,080 Speaker 1: and that's that's progress that we're only going to see 2447 01:59:18,160 --> 01:59:20,640 Speaker 1: in the results of the team winning games and the 2448 01:59:20,720 --> 01:59:23,520 Speaker 1: offense scored more points. U It may look the same, 2449 01:59:24,400 --> 01:59:27,800 Speaker 1: but if the you know, to us, it's just that 2450 01:59:27,880 --> 01:59:31,360 Speaker 1: you miss the turnovers and those aren't there anymore, and 2451 01:59:32,640 --> 01:59:35,720 Speaker 1: some of the stuff that sabotages them disappears, and so 2452 01:59:35,800 --> 01:59:38,760 Speaker 1: you don't really see the mental improvement except that the 2453 01:59:38,840 --> 01:59:41,920 Speaker 1: offense seems to work better. And that's what we're waiting on. 2454 01:59:41,960 --> 01:59:43,560 Speaker 1: And that's kind of the front and I said it 2455 01:59:43,600 --> 01:59:45,320 Speaker 1: earlier in the show. It's kind of the frustrating things 2456 01:59:45,320 --> 01:59:48,520 Speaker 1: some of this progress that we can't see brand dable 2457 01:59:48,560 --> 01:59:51,680 Speaker 1: coaching staff will tell you that it's there, but it 2458 01:59:51,720 --> 01:59:53,360 Speaker 1: doesn't show up on a play. You know. It's not 2459 01:59:53,440 --> 01:59:57,120 Speaker 1: like sliding or throwing it away or not fumbling it. 2460 01:59:57,120 --> 01:59:59,440 Speaker 1: It's more like having his eyes in the right spot 2461 01:59:59,440 --> 02:00:01,440 Speaker 1: when he dropped back. Those kind of things and pre 2462 02:00:01,560 --> 02:00:03,760 Speaker 1: snap when in the cadence, when he's talking to guys, 2463 02:00:04,000 --> 02:00:06,200 Speaker 1: saying the smarter things and the better things, making better 2464 02:00:06,280 --> 02:00:09,680 Speaker 1: checks or the proper checks. If he's not all that stuff, 2465 02:00:09,680 --> 02:00:11,760 Speaker 1: we wouldn't know about. It can't because you can't see it. 2466 02:00:12,240 --> 02:00:14,080 Speaker 1: One more from the tweet sheet. All right, we got 2467 02:00:14,120 --> 02:00:16,680 Speaker 1: one last one from the tweet sheet from James. I'm 2468 02:00:16,720 --> 02:00:19,000 Speaker 1: scared of our leaking run defense going down the stretch. 2469 02:00:19,040 --> 02:00:21,920 Speaker 1: I'm really hoping it's an easy fix, just being more 2470 02:00:22,000 --> 02:00:24,720 Speaker 1: gap sound. I'm also scared about the way teams have 2471 02:00:24,800 --> 02:00:27,320 Speaker 1: started blitzing us. The Patriots did it and everyone has 2472 02:00:27,360 --> 02:00:30,200 Speaker 1: copied it since. Need to hit one over the top 2473 02:00:30,280 --> 02:00:35,480 Speaker 1: soon to get them to back off. Yeah, he's right, 2474 02:00:35,520 --> 02:00:38,520 Speaker 1: they do need a deep one. He's right, they're due. Yeah, 2475 02:00:38,640 --> 02:00:41,120 Speaker 1: if that, if it all evens out, we're due for 2476 02:00:41,160 --> 02:00:44,440 Speaker 1: a handful of those things to hit, right. He's oh, 2477 02:00:44,560 --> 02:00:48,120 Speaker 1: for eleven on throws more than twenty yards down the 2478 02:00:48,120 --> 02:00:49,600 Speaker 1: field or thirty yards down the field. I don't know 2479 02:00:49,600 --> 02:00:51,880 Speaker 1: what it is lately, but they just can't hit one. 2480 02:00:51,880 --> 02:00:53,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what the deal is. They hit him 2481 02:00:54,040 --> 02:00:56,480 Speaker 1: last year, Yep, they did, and they had nothing, very 2482 02:00:56,480 --> 02:00:59,920 Speaker 1: little else in their offense besides that. Hey, Chris Brown 2483 02:01:00,040 --> 02:01:02,879 Speaker 1: sat down with the Shack Lawson this week for Coffee 2484 02:01:02,880 --> 02:01:05,320 Speaker 1: with the Coach. They talked about a variety of topics 2485 02:01:06,240 --> 02:01:08,360 Speaker 1: Coffee with the Bills. I'm sorry, Coffee with the Bills 2486 02:01:08,360 --> 02:01:10,800 Speaker 1: because the coach doesn't do it. Coach doesn't drink coffee apparently, 2487 02:01:11,000 --> 02:01:13,280 Speaker 1: and we'll see right now if Shack Lawson or Chris 2488 02:01:13,280 --> 02:01:16,160 Speaker 1: Brown touch their coffee. It is Coffee with the Bills 2489 02:01:16,160 --> 02:01:20,240 Speaker 1: presented by Tim Morton's Cafe and Big Shop. Here you go. Hello, 2490 02:01:20,320 --> 02:01:22,880 Speaker 1: Welcome once again to Coffee with the Bills, presented by 2491 02:01:22,920 --> 02:01:25,120 Speaker 1: Tim Hortons. I'm Chris Brown, allow the Bill's defensive and 2492 02:01:25,200 --> 02:01:28,360 Speaker 1: Shack Lawson. And in this edition of Coffee with the Bills, 2493 02:01:28,760 --> 02:01:33,080 Speaker 1: we have an exam for Shack on the BRO code. 2494 02:01:33,160 --> 02:01:35,440 Speaker 1: How well Shack knows the BRO code. I'm going to 2495 02:01:35,480 --> 02:01:37,640 Speaker 1: present you with some scenarios. You tell me how you 2496 02:01:37,640 --> 02:01:40,720 Speaker 1: would handle it with your respective bro and we'll see 2497 02:01:40,720 --> 02:01:42,800 Speaker 1: how you do based on what the true bro code 2498 02:01:42,880 --> 02:01:46,120 Speaker 1: responsibilities are. So the first scenario for you, Shack, your 2499 02:01:46,160 --> 02:01:48,760 Speaker 1: bro asked you to accompany him on his way to 2500 02:01:48,800 --> 02:01:50,560 Speaker 1: the pet store. He's gonna buy a new dog. Okay, 2501 02:01:50,680 --> 02:01:54,520 Speaker 1: Your friend immediately is drawn to a little yip dog 2502 02:01:54,760 --> 02:01:57,280 Speaker 1: that could fit on your lap. He wants to get 2503 02:01:57,320 --> 02:01:59,960 Speaker 1: the dog. According to the bro code, what do you do? 2504 02:02:00,200 --> 02:02:04,360 Speaker 1: As his bro Bro? I would have did the same 2505 02:02:04,400 --> 02:02:09,280 Speaker 1: thing because I actually got a small bro Loans is 2506 02:02:09,320 --> 02:02:11,520 Speaker 1: a French bull dog. You can get the dog. But 2507 02:02:11,560 --> 02:02:14,960 Speaker 1: if you like a little poodle nah? All right, Well 2508 02:02:15,400 --> 02:02:17,800 Speaker 1: that is a very diplomatic answer, Shack. But according to 2509 02:02:17,800 --> 02:02:19,920 Speaker 1: the actual bro code, you have to talk him out 2510 02:02:19,920 --> 02:02:22,280 Speaker 1: of getting a little lap dog and find the biggest 2511 02:02:22,320 --> 02:02:24,440 Speaker 1: dog in the dang store and convince him that's the 2512 02:02:24,480 --> 02:02:27,240 Speaker 1: dog for him, because under the bro code, no dog 2513 02:02:27,480 --> 02:02:31,320 Speaker 1: below knee height is acceptable. All right? So the second one, 2514 02:02:31,360 --> 02:02:33,320 Speaker 1: you and your bro are out at the club. The 2515 02:02:33,480 --> 02:02:36,880 Speaker 1: night's gone later than anticipated you're both beat and your 2516 02:02:36,920 --> 02:02:38,720 Speaker 1: place is a lot closer to the club than your 2517 02:02:38,720 --> 02:02:40,920 Speaker 1: buddy's places. He asked to crash at your place for 2518 02:02:40,920 --> 02:02:42,840 Speaker 1: the night, but the only place you have for him 2519 02:02:42,880 --> 02:02:44,520 Speaker 1: to sleep is on your brand new couch in the 2520 02:02:44,560 --> 02:02:48,360 Speaker 1: living room. You know, though, your bro has an excessive 2521 02:02:48,360 --> 02:02:51,680 Speaker 1: sweating problem. Okay, so you let him sleep on your 2522 02:02:51,680 --> 02:02:54,800 Speaker 1: couch according to the bro code, what do you do there? Yeah, 2523 02:02:54,800 --> 02:02:56,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, yeah, you can sleep on my couch, 2524 02:02:56,760 --> 02:03:01,760 Speaker 1: but you gotta put some newspapers. There's sleep with some 2525 02:03:01,840 --> 02:03:04,880 Speaker 1: news players down. Okay, so, Shack, you actually got this 2526 02:03:04,920 --> 02:03:08,200 Speaker 1: one right because you do let him crash on your couch, 2527 02:03:08,600 --> 02:03:12,240 Speaker 1: but take any and all preventative measures to protect your 2528 02:03:12,240 --> 02:03:15,080 Speaker 1: new furniture. Okay, so good answer there, all right. Next one, 2529 02:03:15,320 --> 02:03:18,920 Speaker 1: who's your favorite NBA team? I'm going with the Lakers. 2530 02:03:18,960 --> 02:03:21,200 Speaker 1: I'm really a Lebron fan. Okay, I'm gonna jump. You 2531 02:03:21,240 --> 02:03:23,880 Speaker 1: just gotta follow. Yeah, I'll follow Lebron. I'll jump from 2532 02:03:23,880 --> 02:03:25,839 Speaker 1: the Lakers. Do in any of that. It's the NBA Finals. 2533 02:03:25,840 --> 02:03:28,400 Speaker 1: Your favorite team is facing your bro's favorite team. It's 2534 02:03:28,440 --> 02:03:31,520 Speaker 1: Game seven. Your team takes the title in overtime on 2535 02:03:31,560 --> 02:03:33,920 Speaker 1: the last second shot. Can you rub it in? What 2536 02:03:34,040 --> 02:03:36,480 Speaker 1: does bro code say? Can you rub it in? Of course? Yeah, 2537 02:03:36,480 --> 02:03:38,360 Speaker 1: I'm rubbing the all in his face? Game seven in 2538 02:03:38,480 --> 02:03:43,040 Speaker 1: JAY Finals, Yeah, I'm rubbing all in face. Okay, so 2539 02:03:43,080 --> 02:03:44,960 Speaker 1: that is true. You are allowed to rub it in. 2540 02:03:45,160 --> 02:03:48,240 Speaker 1: Second part of the question for how long can you 2541 02:03:48,320 --> 02:03:52,040 Speaker 1: rub it in with your bro until the next basketball season? 2542 02:03:52,080 --> 02:03:55,640 Speaker 1: Come on? Oh, the whole the whole summer, wholesomer, wholesome. Okay, 2543 02:03:55,720 --> 02:03:58,320 Speaker 1: according to the Bro code, there's the twenty four hour rule. 2544 02:03:58,760 --> 02:04:01,080 Speaker 1: But Game seven the NBA Finals, I think we make 2545 02:04:01,320 --> 02:04:03,560 Speaker 1: an exception for that because that's the title. Run right, Okay, 2546 02:04:03,560 --> 02:04:05,400 Speaker 1: I'll give that one to you. Last one for you. 2547 02:04:05,400 --> 02:04:07,400 Speaker 1: You and you're bro headed to the movies. Catch the 2548 02:04:07,480 --> 02:04:10,520 Speaker 1: latest action flick that's out. You guys are running late, 2549 02:04:10,600 --> 02:04:13,920 Speaker 1: No time to grab dinner before you grab a giant 2550 02:04:13,960 --> 02:04:16,280 Speaker 1: tub of popcorn on your way in, your bro grab 2551 02:04:16,320 --> 02:04:19,200 Speaker 1: some candy whatever? Do you let him have some of 2552 02:04:19,240 --> 02:04:22,360 Speaker 1: that popcorn while you're sitting together in the movie theater? 2553 02:04:22,480 --> 02:04:26,360 Speaker 1: What does the bro code say? Shack lawson, Bro, Yeah, 2554 02:04:26,400 --> 02:04:28,560 Speaker 1: I don't let my bros share my popcorn. I know 2555 02:04:28,600 --> 02:04:32,080 Speaker 1: we're both hungry. Man. We'll have to hear after getting 2556 02:04:32,160 --> 02:04:34,160 Speaker 1: some of that canny.

And who called you out? Richard Harvey? 2628 02:08:02,560 --> 02:08:05,240 Speaker 1: I barely remember him. Yeah, he's great, dude. Yeah, I 2629 02:08:05,240 --> 02:08:07,360 Speaker 1: gotta trust. I trusted him. We were, you know, that 2630 02:08:07,400 --> 02:08:09,960 Speaker 1: locker kind of locker room was all right, And I 2631 02:08:10,040 --> 02:08:11,600 Speaker 1: was like, thanks, man, I don't let me go out 2632 02:08:11,640 --> 02:08:15,400 Speaker 1: there looking, you know not. My best NFL True or 2633 02:08:15,400 --> 02:08:17,960 Speaker 1: False is brought to you by Yancy's Fancy New York's 2634 02:08:18,000 --> 02:08:20,360 Speaker 1: artist in Cheese. You ready, Jamal Adams we heard from 2635 02:08:20,400 --> 02:08:23,840 Speaker 1: him earlier in the show. Is he right to remain 2636 02:08:23,960 --> 02:08:27,640 Speaker 1: upset about the Jets and the trade reports. I'm gonna 2637 02:08:27,640 --> 02:08:29,600 Speaker 1: say false. No, come on, let's move on. Time to 2638 02:08:29,640 --> 02:08:32,200 Speaker 1: grow up, Jamal Adams. I love you. You're a great player, 2639 02:08:32,280 --> 02:08:35,480 Speaker 1: You're a great guy. But look, this is the NFL. 2640 02:08:35,640 --> 02:08:37,640 Speaker 1: They have the right to entertain offers for you and 2641 02:08:37,680 --> 02:08:40,000 Speaker 1: talk to whoever they want. False. I'm gonna say true 2642 02:08:40,040 --> 02:08:42,000 Speaker 1: because I think we met him and I like him. 2643 02:08:42,160 --> 02:08:43,840 Speaker 1: He thought we thought he's mature, He's got a lot 2644 02:08:43,840 --> 02:08:46,480 Speaker 1: of energies. I think if the Jets would have handled 2645 02:08:46,480 --> 02:08:49,000 Speaker 1: this properly, he wouldn't be upset. I'm gonna give him 2646 02:08:49,400 --> 02:08:52,120 Speaker 1: the thought that something was fishy about this where he 2647 02:08:52,200 --> 02:08:55,320 Speaker 1: was because he had a conversation with him and they 2648 02:08:55,400 --> 02:08:59,680 Speaker 1: gave him. They gave him an understanding that that wouldn't 2649 02:08:59,680 --> 02:09:02,520 Speaker 1: be the case. All it took was it was a 2650 02:09:02,560 --> 02:09:04,880 Speaker 1: call because they are obviously had open conversations with him, 2651 02:09:04,920 --> 02:09:06,200 Speaker 1: and they didn't give him a heads up. So I'm 2652 02:09:06,200 --> 02:09:10,120 Speaker 1: gonna say true, He's okay to be upset still because then, yeah, 2653 02:09:10,280 --> 02:09:12,560 Speaker 1: I don't think the Jets handled this the right way. 2654 02:09:12,640 --> 02:09:16,560 Speaker 1: I don't think they just fielded calls all right. NFL 2655 02:09:16,600 --> 02:09:19,880 Speaker 1: trur Falls Part two. Gardner Minshew is playing like the 2656 02:09:19,920 --> 02:09:24,600 Speaker 1: franchise quarterback the Jaguars are desperate four. I'm gonna say, 2657 02:09:25,920 --> 02:09:28,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say true in that he's playing good enough. 2658 02:09:28,960 --> 02:09:30,839 Speaker 1: I mean, he's not knocking a dead, but he's completing 2659 02:09:30,880 --> 02:09:33,960 Speaker 1: sixty two percent of his passes, thirteen touchdowns and only 2660 02:09:34,000 --> 02:09:39,200 Speaker 1: two interceptions. You know, ninety eight point eight percent or 2661 02:09:39,320 --> 02:09:42,040 Speaker 1: ninety eight point eight passer rating. They're four and three 2662 02:09:42,080 --> 02:09:45,080 Speaker 1: with him as the starter. He's playing good enough. I'm 2663 02:09:45,080 --> 02:09:47,080 Speaker 1: gonna say false. If he's the guy you're desperate for, 2664 02:09:47,240 --> 02:09:50,080 Speaker 1: then you gotta set your sights higher, right, you have to. 2665 02:09:50,360 --> 02:09:53,160 Speaker 1: And what do they do? Right? They're in London route 2666 02:09:53,200 --> 02:09:56,520 Speaker 1: now right, playing Houston and London this week. Their guy 2667 02:09:56,600 --> 02:09:58,320 Speaker 1: Folds is not coming back this week, I don't think, 2668 02:09:58,360 --> 02:10:01,640 Speaker 1: but probably next week they're probably Playfoles, wouldn't you think? 2669 02:10:01,920 --> 02:10:05,280 Speaker 1: I think there's no question you go back to Nick Foles. Yeah, 2670 02:10:05,320 --> 02:10:07,040 Speaker 1: you're paying him a ton of money. You just said 2671 02:10:07,040 --> 02:10:10,080 Speaker 1: he's there, franchise quarterback. I'm saying he's playing like he's playing. 2672 02:10:10,160 --> 02:10:12,839 Speaker 1: He's a pleasant surprise. I don't know that they wouldn't 2673 02:10:12,880 --> 02:10:14,800 Speaker 1: be five and two or six and one with Nick 2674 02:10:14,840 --> 02:10:18,960 Speaker 1: Foles instead of four and three.
