1
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 1: These One Bill's Live, presented by called light a Health.

2
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: All right, it's Wednesday. We're here on hump Day, getting

3
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: our groove on as we get set for divisional playoff weekend.

4
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: Bill Bengals, It's One Bill's Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker

5
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: with you as always and Bills back on the practice

6
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 1: field today, albeit in walk through fashion, you get to

7
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: this point in the see he's in and Steve can

8
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: certainly addressed this better than I can. You're taking you're

9
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: taking the load off the legs. So they're fresh here.

10
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: And what are we now? Week twenty were in week

11
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:17,039
Speaker 1: twenty now? Is that what it is? Seventeen games by

12
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 1: week twenty. Yeah, we're we're going to get conta. I

13
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: saw Roger Saffold, he goes here, he is thirteenth year,

14
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: week twenty. Yeah, that sounds like an eternity for me.

15
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,119
Speaker 1: And I know he was. He was in the training,

16
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 1: Yeah he was. He was getting a massage or something.

17
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: He was just get ready to get some treatment. And

18
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: he's right, man, I mean I remember, you just feel

19
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: you know, you don't feel like whatever he is, thirty

20
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: three or thirty four, it whatever he is, it's uh,

21
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: you feel like me now sixty, you know, and your

22
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: body's your livelihood literally, so but they we got a chance,

23
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: that media got a chance to watch a little bit

24
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: of practice today and I don't know what did you well?

25
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: It was to walk through. It was closed to the

26
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: media to get a sense of what they of the

27
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: you know, perkiness in their step. No, I didn't. I

28
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: did you did? Good to me? Yep? Okay, we were

29
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 1: only audibly hearing what was going on out there because

30
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 1: practice was closed to the media. It was just a walkthrough,

31
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 1: so you're not really going to see much anyway. And

32
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: coach McDermot when he addressed Coach McDermot when he addressed

33
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: the media, said today that everyone on the roster was

34
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: going to practice in some capacity, including the injured players,

35
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,959
Speaker 1: who in his estimation, are all improving. So that's good news.

36
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: We'll find out officially now the team has to give

37
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: an estimate of what each player's practice participation would be

38
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: in a real full speed practice. That will be put

39
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: on the injury report today, so we'll see what that

40
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: is when it comes out later this afternoon. Obviously, you

41
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: have two players who did not play last week, Jordan

42
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: Phillips at the shoulder injury, Isaiah McKenzie with a hamstring injury.

43
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: So it'll be probably most interesting to see where those

44
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: players are listed in terms of participation, as well as

45
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: Dane Jackson, who left last week's game and did not return.

46
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: Coach McDermott did say after the game last week that

47
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: if Dane Jackson had to return to the game, he

48
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,079
Speaker 1: could have. I just think Kaire was playing as rare

49
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: end off and there's no reason to take him off

50
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: the field when he's doing that. So yeah, we'll have

51
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: to see what his level of participation would have been

52
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: in today's practice had it been a full scale deal. Yeah,

53
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 1: And it's interesting because Kayer did play well, got the interception,

54
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: had a couple of PBUs, especially at the fourth down

55
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: at the end. Yeah. Yeah, And along with Tarren Johnson

56
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 1: and Turdavius White, the corners played really well this last

57
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: week against the Dolphins. It would be really interesting to

58
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: know if that would have changed had Dane stayed completely healthy.

59
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: Because Kayer played, is gonna play like he's gonna play,

60
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: and if Dane Jackson is not one hundred percent, certainly

61
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: you would think Kier's going to get a few more snaps.

62
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: If not you know, start the game or whatever BCB

63
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: two to start the game, even if they rotate. It

64
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: would be really interesting to see what the coaches, by

65
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: virtue of who gets the snaps, what they thought about

66
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: Kayer's play, because that's where you find really find out

67
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,359
Speaker 1: Coach mcdermots, what changes in game to game with the

68
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: guys playing the way YEA. Coach McDermot was asked about

69
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: Kayer today, he was reserved, I would say in his

70
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 1: comments about Kayer, and I'll just say this across the board.

71
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: Since coach McDermott has been here, he is hesitant to

72
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: he praised on rookies as a rule, and I think

73
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: that's because out of respect for veteran players who have

74
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 1: put the time in the reps in the years. In

75
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 1: fawning all over a rookie, I don't think does a

76
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 1: coaching staff any favors in the eyes of veterans who

77
00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: have been here and you know, paid their dues, grinded

78
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: it out, etc. So I think they are in general

79
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:10,039
Speaker 1: pleased with Kayer Elam's play, but I don't think they

80
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: want to give any Because somebody asked him, has Kayer

81
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 1: is he there now? Has he gotten there? And coaches like,

82
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: hold on a second, that's kind of nobody's ever really

83
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: gotten the question. Yeah, nobody's ever really gotten there. He

84
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: goes in, if you think you're there, you'll find out

85
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 1: pretty quickly that you're not. And we have to remember too,

86
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: Coach McDermott's whole philosophy is daily self improvement. You're never there.

87
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: You're never there, so you're you're always trying to improve,

88
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: even if it's an incremental amount the next day, the

89
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: next day, and the next day. So it just does.

90
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: That whole question didn't fit into coach McDermott's philosophy as

91
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: a coach in the program, you build and you're always

92
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: striving for more. He handled the exact way. Yeah, and

93
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: even Kayer will tell you that. I mean, he's well,

94
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: he's got that DNA also for the time For the

95
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: time being, he had a good game, and that's about

96
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: where it starts and finishes. Yeah. Now I'll go out

97
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 1: and do it again if you get an opportunity. Yeah,

98
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 1: raise your level of preparedness, therefore raising your consistency and

99
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 1: therefore raising your you know, your ability to play well.

100
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: Wink in week out. Don't write a roller coaster of

101
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: a young player. Certainly he was a high on a

102
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: high this last week. And you know against some two

103
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: pretty good receiver, two really good receivers and are pretty

104
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: good tight end pass catching tight end. But you know,

105
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: now the the stakes are higher and the competitions better.

106
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 1: I mean, these three guys you're gonna face this week

107
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 1: and Jamar, Chase te Higgins and Tyler Boyd guys can

108
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: really go. Yeah. I mean, you got to play better

109
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: this week in order to get the same results you

110
00:06:55,360 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: got last week. I think some interesting other developments. Coach

111
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: McDermott did reveal that Damar Hamlin is back in the facility,

112
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: and you know, on a relatively daily basis, he is

113
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: not doing a whole heck of a lot at this point.

114
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: He's here, he's still going through his own recovery, so

115
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: they're trying to slowly and steadily reacclimate him to his

116
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 1: professional setting. He's not sitting in on meetings yet, but

117
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: they're given to him just a little bit to chew

118
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: on each day. I think the coaching staff as well

119
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: as the organization realizes that him feeling like he is

120
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: a part of it again is good for his recovery,

121
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: don't you think absolutely would. Yeah, for all of us,

122
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: it would. And I think he's no difference. So yeah,

123
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: I think they're doing everything they can to make him

124
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: not to feel like he's a part of it, right.

125
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: And I think they did the same thing for Michael

126
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: when he was out in the same thing for von

127
00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: Miller when he was out there. That's the way they

128
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: do things here. And not only that, it also it

129
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: does help the guys who are in the game to

130
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: have those guys around because it for if for no

131
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: other reason, it keeps the family together. You're not missing

132
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: a guy and that's big at this time of year.

133
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: And they can always chime. They've got experiences you don't have.

134
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: They got a voice that you don't have, and you

135
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: got in games like this, it feels good to have

136
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: somebody to listen to who does have those experiences. So yeah,

137
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: it's it's good culture and it's something I think that

138
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 1: pays benefits, whether they be intangible or tangible. It's a

139
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: great way to be and get a great place for

140
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 1: the organization to be in, particularly in the case of

141
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: Damar Hamlin. Yeah, so we shall see what comes to that,

142
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: but it, as coach mcderman put it, it's just a

143
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: small step at a time in terms of giving Damar

144
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: things to focus on, you know, on the days in

145
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: which he shows up at the facility. As we said,

146
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: non in team meetings as of yet, but trying to

147
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 1: reacclimate himself to being a professional athlete. For those that

148
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: don't know, he is on injured reserve, so he's not

149
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 1: even a remote consideration as far as practicing or doing

150
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: anything like that. And he got put on IR I

151
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: think it was last week or the week before, and

152
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: understandably so don't want to take up a roster spot

153
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: with somebody that's in the hospital when you can get

154
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,079
Speaker 1: another player. I mean, I know that might sound a

155
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: little cold, but it's part of doing business here in

156
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 1: the league. Unfortunately. The offensive coordinator for the Bengals, Brian Callahan,

157
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: spoke to the media in Cincinnati today had a couple

158
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: of interesting comments. Among them, he said, at this point,

159
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 1: it's whatever it takes to win. The kid gloves her off.

160
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: And he was asked a lot about his offensive line,

161
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 1: as you might expect Steve with the injuries they have upfront.

162
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: What was interesting was Jackson Carmen was the player selected

163
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 1: to replace Jonah Williams in the game last Sunday night

164
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 1: against Baltimore when Williams went down with the dislocated kneecap.

165
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: But on the depth chart, it's Deontay Smith who's listed

166
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: up listed as the backup offensive tackle, and so Callahan

167
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: was asked why Jackson Carmen over Deontay Smith and Zay Prince,

168
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 1: who's another backup offensive tackle, and Callahan said, just felt

169
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 1: like his size, strength and experience would be an advantage

170
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 1: for us. Now, where does it go from here? He

171
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: said that he thought Jackson Carmen did a nice job

172
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 1: of taking on the role, said he did a good

173
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: job of growing up. Now, Carmen is a Clemson product

174
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: and he did play offensive tackle at Clemson, so it's

175
00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 1: not like it's a foreign position to him. Could be

176
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,439
Speaker 1: Clemson on Clemson on Sunday, Shack Lawson against Jackson Carmen.

177
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: That'd be interesting. So we'll see. That's the anticipation. The

178
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: anticipation is if Jonah Williams can't go, it will be

179
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 1: Jackson Carmen at left tackle, even though he's listed as

180
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: a backup guard. So we'll have to keep an eye

181
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 1: on that see where it goes. No word yet on

182
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 1: practice participation from the Bengals. We anticipate that'll be coming

183
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 1: in short order here, but they have three linemen who

184
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: are up in the air, and question marks are two linemen.

185
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: We already know that Lyle Collins the right tackles lost

186
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: for the season with his injury suffered a few weeks ago.

187
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 1: So akeem Identagy is their starting right tackle as he

188
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 1: has been for the last three games. Left tackle is

189
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,439
Speaker 1: the question mark, as is right guard, where their starter

190
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: Alex Kappa is week to week with what has been

191
00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 1: reported to be a high ankle spring. So things to

192
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: keep an eye on as far as the Bengals side

193
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 1: of the injury list is concerned. So we'll try to

194
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: pass that along to you if in fact it becomes

195
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 1: available before we are off the air today. Around the

196
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: NFL we go Steve and as we know, teams that

197
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,680
Speaker 1: are not in the playoffs, there are five teams looking

198
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: for head coaches. There are also a handful of teams

199
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: looking for new coordinators, among them the New York Jets, who,

200
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:35,839
Speaker 1: according to reports today, are looking at Nathaniel Hackett, the

201
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: fired head coach of the Denver Broncos. He is interviewing

202
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: today for the offensive coordinator post with the New York

203
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: Jets after they parted ways with Mike Lafleur around the

204
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 1: NFL incidentally presented by Kalida Health, the official healthcare system

205
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: of the Buffalo Bills. Steve, what do you think of

206
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: this theory of mine? Interview Nathaniel Hackett, see if he

207
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: has a chance of luring Aaron Rodgers via trade? That's

208
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: what the Denver Broncos thought they could do, failed miserably.

209
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,680
Speaker 1: They settle for Russell Wilson. Are the Jets foolish to

210
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: think that if they hire Nathaniel Hackett, who worked with

211
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay for a few years, can

212
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: possibly lure Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets? Is

213
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: that foolhardy? I think foolhardy is a understatement. I think

214
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: that's Craig Cray. And why is it Craig Cray? Steve

215
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 1: tell us, Well, because Nathaniel. I can't imagine a point

216
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: in Nathaniel Hackett's coaching career where his star was less

217
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 1: than what it is now. He couldn't Russell Wilson, Well,

218
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: he wrecked Russell Wilson. He wrecked him. Yeah, I mean

219
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,679
Speaker 1: Russell and You can say what you want with the

220
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's washed up whatever, Russell least, Russell Wilson's a

221
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: veteran who can do some things. He was horrible to

222
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, not for nothing. After Hacket got fired. Russell

223
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: Wilson actually played a pretty good game in Week eighteen. Right. No,

224
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,959
Speaker 1: if they're thinking Nate Hackett is the way to get

225
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, I can't think of any other reason why

226
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: you would interview him right now. He's on a list.

227
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: Maybe because he's on a list. He's got some chops

228
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: now that he's been given a chance at a head

229
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: coaching job which he could not fulfill for more than

230
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: eleven months. It's the jetsiest of Jet things. It is

231
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 1: so Jetsy, and that is it's such a mistake. It's

232
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: so Jets. It's so Jet. We are back on track

233
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: to celebrating the Jet draft again here in Western Y.

234
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: When they come out and draft whoever, whatever they do,

235
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: they're gonna draft a but they need offensive lineman for sure.

236
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: They get in the worst way, and you know what

237
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: that means. They're gonna they're gonna draft another fullback Number

238
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: one overall, rocher Vic they're gonna rogers, They're gonna draft

239
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 1: a fullback. No, they'll yeah. Oh that is so that

240
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 1: is such a bad form of logic. I and I'm

241
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 1: not going to read into anything. And I haven't heard

242
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: what they were thinking and their their logic behind interviewing

243
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: Nate Hackett. But man, I can't imagine a guy who's

244
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: less attractive at this point of his coaching here. Now,

245
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: Nate's had some he's got some chops. He's been around

246
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: the league, Like you said, Coach Rod, He's been around.

247
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: Guys know him. He's got a name and his you know,

248
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: his dad was also a guy who you know, coaching

249
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: the league along time. So he's you know, he's got

250
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: that in his DNA. But I'm telling you what no Way,

251
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 1: speaking of no wast Steve, I mean what they should

252
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: get Frank Reich before they get Nate Hackett. Speaking of

253
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 1: no Way, Dolphins passing game coordinator slash quarterbacks coach Darryl

254
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: Bevil has told the Jets and Commanders no thanks on

255
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: the OC job. Oh my god. That According to NFL Networks,

256
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: Tom Pella Sero, Yeah, I'm good over here said it.

257
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: I'm good over here. I'm good over here down the

258
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: ranks as opposed to going to the top of your

259
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: We said, we had this conversation weeks months ago, at

260
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: least maybe during the first part of the season, when

261
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 1: the when the Commanders were relevant, you know, before they

262
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: got started. I think people outside the National Football League

263
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: would be surprised, if not shocked, at the amount of

264
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: jobs that are no thank you by head coaching candidates

265
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: and other candidates around the National Football League. We're just

266
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: talking about coordinator for the Commanders and the Jets, and

267
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 1: Bebel's like, I'm good, and I think for two reasons.

268
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: For the Jets, it's what's your plan at quarterback? I

269
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: don't want to be I don't want to be the

270
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: guy holding the bag on that right. Number one. For

271
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: the Commanders, it's aren't you guys for sale? Who's to

272
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: say that that whole coaching staff doesn't get bounced when

273
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: a new owner comes in. Yeah, there's that. I don't

274
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 1: know if you can rule that out. You can't uncertainty there,

275
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: and it's uncomfortable uncertainty for perspective. And it could be

276
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: something else too. It could be a family thing where

277
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: he wants to stay in South George. He might say listen,

278
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel, I'm learning some stuff from this guy. I

279
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 1: love his system. He's maximized a quarterback. I didn't think

280
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 1: we could get that out of I'm gonna stay here

281
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,119
Speaker 1: and learn. This is a better spot for me than

282
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: going and try and trying to scrape through the ashes

283
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: of two different franchises and come out with, you know

284
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 1: something script through the Oh my god, Steve, you're a poet.

285
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: You don't even know, right, I mean, that's he's because listen,

286
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 1: I don't and I don't know how. I have no

287
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 1: idea how old how old he is. He may know,

288
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 1: he's got decades ahead of him and the opportunities are

289
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: as important as the title. So good on him. And

290
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 1: I'll say it again, I think people would be shocked

291
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 1: at the amount of jobs that are that are silently

292
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: passed upon. NFL Networks Ian Rappaport is reporting that the

293
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: Falcons are interviewing longtime respected defensive coordinator and former Broncos

294
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,120
Speaker 1: head coach Vic Fangio for their vacant defensive coordinator job.

295
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 1: He was a defensive consultant with the Eagles last season,

296
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: so that would be a good yet for head coach

297
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 1: Arthur Smith down in Atlanta, you can get Vic Fangio

298
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: for your defensive coordinator job. We also have seen that

299
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: the Patriots have requested permission from the Minnesota Vikings to

300
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: interview wide receivers coach Keenan McCardell for their offensive coordinator position.

301
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,720
Speaker 1: He's on a list of candidates along with Bill O'Brien.

302
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 1: There is a member of the Patriots staff, Nick Cayley,

303
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 1: who is also a candidate for the OC position in

304
00:18:54,480 --> 00:19:00,119
Speaker 1: New England for a promotion. We'll see where that goes there.

305
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 1: It's the coaching caris el Steve, you know how this goes.

306
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: Frank Reich was mentioned as a possible candidate for the

307
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: Chargers OC job, which would be a reunion of sorts

308
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 1: because he has coached there previously in that role. As

309
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: a matter of fact, Um, I've seen his name circulating

310
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: in other places for the head coaching job at Carolina.

311
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 1: That's the one I saw. And he has he has

312
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 1: history there as a former player. That's right. He threw

313
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 1: the first touchdown in franchise history. Um. Yeah, So that

314
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 1: some of these guys are all getting looks and there

315
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 1: are there's a lot of old names. I mean, Jim

316
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: Haslet's name has been thrown around in this and wow,

317
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: um not in not in not so much in the

318
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: Carolina job, but in other jobs around he's had, he's

319
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 1: been you know, So one coordinator post has been filled.

320
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 1: The Browns hired defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz, former Bills DC.

321
00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 1: He's been hired in Cleveland to be their new defensive coordinator.

322
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 1: He replaces the fired Joe Woods. So that position has

323
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: been filled and more will be filled in the coming days.

324
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: I thought the most interesting one Steve was Ben Johnson,

325
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: the red hot offensive coordinator for the Lions. He is

326
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: going back to the Lions. He has decided not to

327
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: take or keep himself in the running for any head

328
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: coaching positions at this point in time, and I think

329
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: that's a good move for him. He's shown he can

330
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: do a lot with that offense. They had a couple

331
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: more pieces look out. I mean, he's really made Jared

332
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 1: Goff looked like a solid, consistent quarterback this season. And

333
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 1: that was a team that was scoring points this year.

334
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: I mean, they gave the Bills all they could handle

335
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving. Yeah, and you know, for a lot of

336
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,640
Speaker 1: people who had because I think Sean McVeigh gave up

337
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 1: on Goff in LA a lot of people thought, now,

338
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: at least you know he's done, he's not good enough,

339
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: and quite frankly, there are other coaches out there who

340
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 1: approach it from a different angle, can get more out

341
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:06,400
Speaker 1: of the guy and and do well with him. Now. Certainly,

342
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 1: Dan Campbell. You can say what you want about Dan

343
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: Campbell and the Lions. They didn't get to the playoffs

344
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 1: at all. They didn't get to the playoffs, and the

345
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 1: quarterback is always a big reason why. So maybe Sean

346
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 1: mcvayh can still say, hey, I'm right and they're wrong.

347
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: But certainly Dan Campbell and his staff see enough in

348
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: Jared Goff to this year, yeah, to get it done.

349
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:34,160
Speaker 1: And you know, Matt Stafford is better than Jared Goff,

350
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: no question. So if you're gonna trade, do it. I

351
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 1: don't know if he's worth two ones and a two

352
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 1: for Jared Goff much more than Jared Goff, but that's

353
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 1: what they gave up to him for him. So yeah,

354
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 1: it's really interesting to see what some coaches can get

355
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: out of players and what some coaches cannot. Hence Brian

356
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: day Ball in New York Giants this year Hence Daniel

357
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: Jones looks like a world beat Mike McDaniel with two

358
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: of You know, think there's coaches out there who are

359
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,679
Speaker 1: good enough at the human side of the game to

360
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 1: give guys an opportunity to thrive in a different environment.

361
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott. I mean point in case when he showed up,

362
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: how things changed in this building and players throw. I'm

363
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,880
Speaker 1: certainly they're all hit most of the I think maybe

364
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: every single player in the building now is a Sean

365
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:25,399
Speaker 1: McDermott player. I think they are right. Well, Shack was

366
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 1: here before he arrived, then he left and has since come.

367
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: Technically that gotta beat. That's Sean McDermott and read Ferguson.

368
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: Those are the only two games. So yeah, that m

369
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: but he took that predate McDermott. It's like the old

370
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 1: bum Phillips saying for those who don't know bum Phillips.

371
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: He coached the Houston Oilers with her Earl Campbell back

372
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 1: in the early eighties and late seventies, and he said

373
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: that he said this about Don Shula at that time.

374
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: He said he can take his he can take his

375
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 1: hens and beat Uran's, and he can take Urans and

376
00:22:55,920 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: beat his hens. He's already good coach. So some guys

377
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: are gifted like that. Some guys are gifted like that,

378
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,440
Speaker 1: and they can they just get more out of it

379
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,399
Speaker 1: and show the Dermott certainly as one of those guys

380
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,360
Speaker 1: bay bawling guys around the league. One player personnel note

381
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 1: from around the NFL. The Cowboys are sticking with kicker

382
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: Brett Mahr. They expect him to rebound against the forty

383
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: nine ers. For those who don't know or didn't see

384
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 1: Monday nights wildcard playoff game between the Cowboys and the Bucks,

385
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 1: he missed four extra points in the win by the Cowboys.

386
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: At least he picked a good game to do it,

387
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 1: whereas extra points didn't mean a whole lot in a

388
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,400
Speaker 1: game that the Cowboys ultimately won thirty one to fourteen.

389
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you this, did you see the one

390
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 1: that shows on the sidelines and maybe it'll show up

391
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 1: in our highlights that we're showing right here. If Dak

392
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 1: Prescott getting mad at him when a winning was he

393
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,400
Speaker 1: mad at that specifically or was that just a camera

394
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: catching h him at a bad time? And then context

395
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: it was about the kicker? Yea was yeah? I find

396
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:05,199
Speaker 1: that troubling about Dak. Certainly it's the heat of the

397
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: game and all that, okay, but it's a good thing

398
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 1: Dak's teammates don't treat him like that when he pulls stunt.

399
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,719
Speaker 1: I mean, he didn't misfield, but when you come out

400
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: and throw a bone head throw or do the stuff

401
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 1: that looked the way Dak looked in Week eighteen? Do

402
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 1: you think he Bay was saying that about him? On

403
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 1: the sidelines, they were catching guys, and I'm sure somebody

404
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 1: was muttering under their breath, son of a nutcracker. I mean,

405
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 1: come on, And I don't know why. I don't know.

406
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,919
Speaker 1: I didn't know that was gonna be no good. I

407
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 1: thought that would I guess it has to go over

408
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,360
Speaker 1: the top and not touch it right, if it goes

409
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 1: over the tipe. If that kick would have been six

410
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: inches higher, it'd have been good. Yeah. Yeah. I always

411
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 1: hesitate when I see a player with a compromising reaction

412
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,479
Speaker 1: right after a bad play by a teammate on the field, Like,

413
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 1: is that really in direct response to what happened on

414
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: the field, or is it something else going on on

415
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 1: the sidelines. I never know the context, and I feel

416
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: like that sometimes misleading kind of the way reality television

417
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 1: cleverly edits reactions and stuff. I mean, I'm not saying

418
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 1: this is the only reality TV a water, that's right,

419
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,239
Speaker 1: But I always wonder, with all the things that go

420
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 1: on on an NFL sideline, is it in relations or

421
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 1: something else or something on the field. Certainly it can

422
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: be that way. I try to give those guys benefit

423
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: of the doubt, but maybe it was. But I just

424
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: thought it was troubling. I mean how I mean, I

425
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 1: get it. He's coming off the field. They they've scored

426
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 1: three straight times and the kickers blown three extra points

427
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: and on his way to blowing four. Yeah, he did

428
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: get one at the end, did he Yeah, he hit

429
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: his fifth. He hit the fifth one. He said wow.

430
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: I said, hey, he started a new streak. Brett Marr

431
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,159
Speaker 1: and I'll say this, Brett Mahr has been absolute money

432
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: for the Cowboys this great season, really great season. I mean,

433
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,439
Speaker 1: there's like no doubt they're bringing that guy. He's great, man.

434
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:02,640
Speaker 1: I think that's the only thing he's gonna be letting

435
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 1: him sept ten. Those guys the last from the past, right,

436
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: So those guys at barefooter, they kick forever. You know,

437
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 1: and he was gonna be he could have had a

438
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: chance to be one of those guys for the Cowboys,

439
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 1: And I don't know. Well, I would say that his

440
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 1: body of work this season is probably the only thing

441
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: that got him another week kicking in the playoffs, you

442
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like, look, his body of work

443
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 1: has far out distanced just what happened in this game

444
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 1: this past week. Is it troubling, Absolutely, But we're gonna

445
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,879
Speaker 1: give him a chance to rebound. Now. If he's in

446
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: practice on Friday and he's spraying stuff all over the

447
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: yard in practice, yeah, this is one of those things

448
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,360
Speaker 1: where there might be a late phone call. Listen, Brett,

449
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: I know you had a tough game. Sorry that We're

450
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 1: gonna stick with you. You're our guy. I know that

451
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 1: there's three other kickers now at the other end of

452
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: the I don't worry. You're our guy. You're our guy.

453
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: That is how cutthroat the NFL is it really is?

454
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 1: You Listen, you both said not for long. You got

455
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:07,160
Speaker 1: to have a list of kickers right here. That's like, Hey,

456
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: that's what pro personnel departments exist for. If not Sunday night,

457
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 1: Monday morning, the phone's ring and saying Hey, how's your

458

489
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: comments from the players, and we open with Josh Allen,

490
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 1: who just answered some questions from the media. Whatever emotional

491
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 1: residue there might be in facing that team three weeks

492
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: after what happened, does it help the emotional release that

493
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: you guys had in the body that you guys had

494
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 1: to prepare for this game? And how much might there's

495
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: still be something left over as you take the field

496
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 1: from three weeks ago? Um, I mean, I don't think

497
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 1: there's honestly too much left over. Um off with guys

498
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: being able to see a little bit of damar. I know,

499
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 1: coach that he's been in the building, so guys being

500
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: able to see him talk with him, I think that

501
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: kind of alleviates most of that. M'm not saying that

502
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 1: there's going to be none. You know, I can't speak

503
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 1: for everybody on the team. Um, but again, I think

504
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: we're We're just extremely focused right now. I'm just having

505
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: a good week of preparation and you know, trying to

506
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 1: go out there on Sunday and execute. Now. I know

507
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: you're real tight with him. He said he's gone through

508
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: a lot this season personally as well. UM, just what

509
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 1: it's meant for this offense to have him kind of

510
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 1: rolling now and into the playoffs. Yeah, I mean he's

511
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 1: been He's been great for us. Um. You know, the

512
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: more that we can get him the ball, you know, um,

513
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: seems like, you know, the better that we do. And again,

514
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: he's such a he really is. He's so athletic, he's

515
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 1: so big, he's so fast. Um, he's tough for smaller

516
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: guys and he's you know, quicker than some of the

517
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 1: big guys that guard him. So you know, just trying

518
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 1: to get you know, everybody involved in this offense. And

519
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: I think when when we're spraying it around, UM and

520
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: getting everybody involved, I think we become very balanced. UM,

521
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: and I think that's a sign of a good team.

522
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 1: Security is something you positively focus on, right. But I

523
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 1: asked Shot this. You know, after a game like Sundays

524
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 1: or whatever, it becomes more of an issue. UM. He says,

525
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 1: he trusts you, you know, the players in general to

526
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 1: kind of deal with that, but he doesn't feel it

527
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 1: necessarily has to aggress it. What's your process and how

528
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 1: do you kind of focus on coming off a game

529
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 1: like that. UM? Deal with protecting the football and the play. Yeah,

530
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: and again I think it's a short memory and just

531
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: trying to move on be the best quarterback that I

532
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 1: can be for the Bills. UM. Obviously wanting to make

533
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 1: good decisions and you know, I think, you know, out

534
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: of the whole game, I think I made one bad decision.

535
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 1: It was the deep ball to to John and UM.

536
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: You know, obviously we want to we want to end

537
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 1: the ball or in every possession with the ball in

538
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: our hands, whether it's a touchdown, UM, you know, punting

539
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: it away or kicking a field goal. And that's that's

540
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: our mindset that will never change. And you know, there

541
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: is a thin line between being aggressive and um being

542
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 1: a little bit reckless. So again just you know, getting

543
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 1: back on the right side of that line and being

544
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: being smart but being not being conservative. What do you

545
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 1: make of their defense? Was there much that YouTube from

546
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,239
Speaker 1: that tiny to playing against Sunlight You're too this time?

547
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: Are just kind of like what are you seeing? Getting

548
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: ready for them for this go around? Yeah, I mean

549
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: we only had um, you know, one drive against them,

550
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,080
Speaker 1: so it's kind of hard to take anything away from that.

551
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,760
Speaker 1: And um, you know, they played the same team twice

552
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: since we've played them, and um, there's not much carry

553
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: over in terms of what our offense does and their

554
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: offense does. So it's kind of uh, you know, original

555
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: game plan thought and um again making adjustments on the fly.

556
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: You know, they've they've played certain teams certain ways, and um,

557
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: again they can come out and play as completely different

558
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: than what the first drive you know said that they

559
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: were going to play us. So again it's just being

560
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: being smart, um, you know, decision wise, trying to find

561
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: the open guy, um, getting the run game involved, and uh,

562
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 1: like I said, just trying to be a balanced offense

563
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 1: against this team or they're their high motor. Um they

564
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: got you know, they're other in dan back and they're

565
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,960
Speaker 1: making a lot of plays right now. Um. You know,

566
00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 1: Logan Wilson had an unbelievable play on the goal line

567
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: and you know he's he's a heck of a player.

568
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: And you know, they're playing really inspired football right now.

569
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: They've won i think eight eight or nine straight and um,

570
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 1: you know it's a team that's that's gonna be tough

571
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: to beat. You know, they're coming into our house and

572
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 1: they're they're playing with a lot of confidence. Um, you know,

573
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 1: and we got to be ready for whatever they can

574
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: throw at us. Prot you talk about, you know, the

575
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 1: fine line between get reckless and being aggressive, how do

576
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: you kind of process that it balance that because I

577
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 1: would imagine overthink stuff. Is it more just trusting your Yeah,

578
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,719
Speaker 1: I think it's very instinctual. I think it's also very

579
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: dictated on the flow of the game. UM. Sometimes down

580
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: in distance, um, but again just understanding what type of

581
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 1: what type of game it is, and um last week

582
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: maybe getting too aggressive and just understanding you know, with

583
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: the lead, you know, just forcing longer drives instead of

584
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 1: helping helping you know, their team get back in it

585
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: and That's what I really did. And um again, I

586
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 1: credit our defense for stepping up and guys making some

587
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: plays on the offensive side of the ball. But we're

588
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 1: not gonna get caught up in in a couple of

589
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 1: bad plays that we had last week. And we're gonna

590
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: focus on the good and I'm gonna learn from it.

591
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 1: And like I said, our attentions all on Cincinnati comes

592
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: Sunday at three o'clock. How's your ankle feeling affect anything

593
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 1: the last a couple of games. No, I mean, if

594
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: it feels good, it's fine. Um, doesn't really affect. Doesn't

595
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:20,800
Speaker 1: affect much about Babe getting too aggressive? Is it? Is

596
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: there someone that can reach you in that moment or

597
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 1: do you talk about to himself internally or how does

598
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 1: that work? Yeah? I think it's Uh, it's since internal.

599
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,360
Speaker 1: You can have the the offensive coordinator say something in

600
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 1: the headset, but at the end of the day, it's

601
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 1: it's the main in the arena. It's uh, you know,

602
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: the guy in the helmet that's got to make the decision.

603
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: And um again, I don't want to put our team

604
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 1: in bad situations, and um, you know, I just want

605
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,439
Speaker 1: to help this team win football games and that's that's

606
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,680
Speaker 1: what I'm I'm paid to do, is you know, score

607
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: touchdowns for this offense and help us win games. Playoff

608
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 1: gave Davis seems to be a real play any thing. Um,

609
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 1: what do you see in the postseason with this kind

610
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 1: of change is a little bit, you know, I know

611
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: everybody wants to make it a deal. He's the same

612
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 1: guy he really is, And I know, um, this year

613
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 1: hasn't been the best year that he could have had,

614
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 1: but I mean you used to look at the stats

615
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: and the numbers that he's put up this year, Um,

616
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 1: you know it was. It was a very very solid year.

617
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 1: And I freaking love the guy to death. He's, you know,

618
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 1: one of the the most liked guys in the locker room. Um.

619
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 1: He works extremely hard. You look at his again, just

620
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:24,280
Speaker 1: his work ethic, not just in season, um, but offseason.

621
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: You know how much work he puts into what he

622
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 1: really cares about this game. He cares about his teammates.

623
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 1: He doesn't care who gets the recognition. He's the last

624
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: guy in years on the jugs right now by himself.

625
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 1: So Um, he speaks a lot to who he is.

626
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 1: He just wants to be the best that he can

627
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 1: be doesn't make change. You're in a playoff week. You know,

628
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: everybody's always like, hey, you got to kind of keep

629
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 1: the same allmentum, the same rhythm, aver whatever. But changing

630
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: approaching it a different way. Um, I can't say that

631
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 1: it does. Again. We want to we want to keep

632
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,440
Speaker 1: the same the vibe, the same vibe, the same mindset

633
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,279
Speaker 1: that we've had. And I think the one thing that

634
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: changes around here is just instead of being playoff aliber,

635
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 1: we gotta be championship caliber. And I think coach does

636
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: a good job of messaging that to the guys, where

637
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: everything you do, hopefully it would be towards winning a

638
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 1: world championship, everything on and off the field, in the

639
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 1: treatment room, in the training room, yeah, just making sure

640
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 1: that we're we're physically and mentally ready to go as possible,

641
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 1: because again it's winner go home. How much do you

642
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 1: think how much do you think that I'm not saying

643
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 1: you'll reflect that, but the experiences that this team has had,

644
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 1: the experiences that you've had in the AFC Championship game,

645
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 1: in the Division final, in what's gone on this year,

646
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: how much do you think that has better prepared you

647
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: in this team for this test, this weekend. Yeah, I mean,

648
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:47,360
Speaker 1: I think it gives you a more sturdy foundation. You know,

649
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 1: the more struggle, the more adversity that you can see

650
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 1: over a course of a year, it just makes you

651
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 1: that much stronger. Again, You've you've been in some We've

652
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: been in some really weird situations this year that not

653
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 1: a lot of teams maybe I've ever gone through. Um,

654
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,320
Speaker 1: So again, just being able to have that under a belt,

655
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 1: understand those emotions in those situations, and just try to

656
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:08,400
Speaker 1: use it to our benefit. And again, I think the

657
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: lot the guys that we have in this locker room,

658
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,399
Speaker 1: the veteran leadership that we have, you know, even having

659
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: von Miller in the locker room, just being able to

660
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 1: talk with guys like that's that's so huge for what

661
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,359
Speaker 1: it does to our our our psyche um and our

662
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 1: mental approach to the game. So yeah, I think that

663
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,320
Speaker 1: that can definitely benefit you if you use it the

664
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 1: right way. Back to the Browns game, Sorry, if you

665
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 1: go back to the Browns game. You guys have five

666
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 1: straight games. I think it was like a total turnovers

667
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 1: in those five games. Is there anything when you're going

668
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 1: to that to get as a team you can kind

669
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 1: of take from when things are that good, they're not

670
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 1: turning the ball over when you're trying to maybe get

671
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:46,760
Speaker 1: out of the rut um potentially, again, it just making decisions.

672
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 1: Sometimes tip picks are going to happen. Um, And that's

673
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:52,879
Speaker 1: just that's just the gist of it. Like you can't

674
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: just try to eliminate every single turnover and play scared

675
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 1: like you stuff to be. You know, the way that

676
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 1: we play, we're aggressive, we want to court touchdowns and um,

677
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,320
Speaker 1: you know that's that's the gist of it, to be honest,

678
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: and again we don't we don't want to play scared

679
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. Yeah, I just I

680
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 1: probably get the best shot just that I didn't about today,

681
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,800
Speaker 1: Like we walk through its supposed to a full practice.

682
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:19,839
Speaker 1: That is that beneficial to you? I mean if if

683
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: they're wear and tear like like rest just to be

684
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: focus in a different ways, that beneficial looking for us,

685
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:28,480
Speaker 1: I think it's beneficial to to really everybody on this team. Um,

686
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,560
Speaker 1: you know, it's been a long it's been a long

687
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:35,759
Speaker 1: season and as you get later into the playoffs, Um,

688
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: you know your body can only sustain so much. So

689
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: for shan to you know, come out and let us

690
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 1: have a walk through and again making sure that our

691
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 1: guys are being mentally there and paid attention to the

692
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,279
Speaker 1: looks that we're getting the plays that we're running. Um.

693
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: And I think it's it's like I said, it's a

694
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 1: benefit to have the guys in the locker room that

695
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 1: we do to be able to come out and do

696
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 1: this and focus and get the things done that we

697
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 1: need to get done. Um. So yeah, I think it's

698
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 1: it is it beneficial for us. I know you said

699
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 1: DeMar has been around and talking to you guys. Have

700
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 1: he personally gotten to interact with him much? And if so,

701
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: what has blows that been Like? Yeah, just uh, you know,

702
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 1: a few hugs here and there. Everybody's chomping at the

703
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 1: bit to talk to him. And I don't want to

704
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 1: overload him with too much right now, but it's it's

705
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 1: been good to see him, Um, you know, a smile

706
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,839
Speaker 1: on his face and uh, you know, guys love having

707
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,880
Speaker 1: him back in the building. Differently when you're going against

708
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, No, no, he's he He's gonna win that

709
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 1: battle ten times up of ten. Um. I don't really

710
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 1: I don't dress to impress on game day, just kind

711
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 1: of walk in the closet and pick whatever I see first.

712
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 1: So maybe maybe someday down the road, I said it

713
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 1: since training camp, how much trust him a kalil and

714
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: then he has the drop, But then he makes the

715
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: really good play at the end of the game because

716
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,000
Speaker 1: there are added dimension he brings the offensers. There's something

717
00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,399
Speaker 1: that he brings me he's out there that other people

718
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:04,360
Speaker 1: might not um. I mean, again, he knows all the positions.

719
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 1: I think he's faster than what people give him credit for.

720
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:12,399
Speaker 1: You know, he's a bigger body. I think he's fairly

721
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:15,120
Speaker 1: shifty too, and again he's just kind of a mixture

722
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 1: of what you want in the slot. So again, the

723
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,359
Speaker 1: more that we can get him involved and get going,

724
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 1: and obviously he's still young, but the more that he

725
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:25,400
Speaker 1: can learn from each and every situation that he's out

726
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:26,880
Speaker 1: there and learn from the guys in front of him,

727
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 1: I think it's going to benefit him down the road.

728
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 1: So that's Josh Allen addressing the media after practice today.

729
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: Among his more interesting comments, a lot of questions, as

730
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 1: you might expect, on balancing being aggressive with being judicial

731
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:46,719
Speaker 1: in his decisions with the football, and he said, you

732
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 1: never want to play scared, but he also wants to

733
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 1: put his team in the best position to succeed, so

734
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: that will be a balance that he undertakes. Had an

735
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,239
Speaker 1: interesting comment on Khalil Shakir, believing that if they get

736
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,279
Speaker 1: him more involved, he will succeed in providing them more

737
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: in the passing game, and he also feels that Joe

738
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:09,319
Speaker 1: Burrow has him beat in one category, drip game. Joe

739
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,880
Speaker 1: is a pretty fashion forward Steve. In case you didn't know,

740
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:14,840
Speaker 1: I did know that. I've seen some of the outfits

741
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: he wears game day. I know I couldn't pull most

742
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 1: of them off if I tried him. Look good on him,

743
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,880
Speaker 1: I will say he does make him work. Yeah he does.

744
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: I'll give it to him. Josh and I basically just

745
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 1: pull whatever I see first in my closet. Just throw

746
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 1: that on. Um. Josh is kind of like a T

747
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,879
Speaker 1: shirt and sweats guy. You know what I mean. Most

748
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 1: that you guys are until game day. You know we

749
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 1: are going to take a break here. When we come back,

750
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 1: we'll dive into Bills Bengals a little bit more. Some

751
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: interesting numbers to pass along to you concerning Cincinnati, which

752
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:52,800
Speaker 1: by the way, is now on a nine game winning streak.

00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,399
Speaker 1: The Bills have won eighth straight. Two streaking teams will

787
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: pretty nice, pretty good, pretty good. I saw this on Twitter,

788
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:11,160
Speaker 1: Steve earlier today the television ratings for the wild card

789
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:14,560
Speaker 1: game between the Bills and the Dolphins. Buffalo drew a

790
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:18,640
Speaker 1: forty seven point four local rating for the wild Card

791
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: game on CBS, which led all markets. Chiefs fans were

792
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 1: apparently pretty interested because Kansas City was the number two

793
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 1: television market for that game at a twenty eight point

794
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 1: two rating, followed by Cincinnati, West Palm Beach, and New

795
00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: Orleans in the top five. Fort Myers Slash Naples was

796
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:47,239
Speaker 1: the number six viewing market. Steve, it's all making sense.

797
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 1: Miami Fort Lauderdale was not in the top ten. Seriously,

798
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 1: Miami for the Bills Dolphins game not in the top ten?

799
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 1: What are they doing down the passionate fan base? Passionate

800
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:09,760
Speaker 1: can't live without their passionate, committed fan base. There you go, Wow,

801
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:16,800
Speaker 1: that's that surprises men. Four local rating, it's like almost

802
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 1: half the televisions. What Western New York we're watching the game?

803
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 1: What was the share did they share? What the forty

804
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,879
Speaker 1: seven point four rating means? There's forty seven point four

805
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 1: percent of the televisions in the market are tuned in

806
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 1: and the share that's not right, It might be opposite.

807
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,399
Speaker 1: The share is how many TV sets were actually on? Right?

808
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 1: I don't have that. Yeah, I'll bet that share was massive,

809
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,359
Speaker 1: might be even bigger this week. Yeah, well I think

810
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,719
Speaker 1: this game in Buffalo and well they're they're every game

811
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:55,839
Speaker 1: as we saw over the weekend, every game is a standalone. Right,

812
00:45:55,920 --> 00:46:00,480
Speaker 1: They're only four games per weekend afternoon in the evening

813
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:03,520
Speaker 1: on both days Saturday Sunday. Yes, so all four games

814
00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:08,040
Speaker 1: are going to be watched by everybody or available to

815
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: be watched by everybody in the country. So you're gonna

816
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 1: get what are we gonna get? Thirty million people watching

817
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 1: a Bills game, Bills Bengals. Yeah, particularly with the fact

818
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,400
Speaker 1: that the twenty days ago we had the incident with

819
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 1: the Damar thirty million people minimum minimum and that's like

820
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 1: back in the day, that's like super Bowl numbers. The

821
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,920
Speaker 1: super Bowl now is you'll get one hundred million. You'll

822
00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,719
Speaker 1: get anywhere between ninety and one hundred and ten million

823
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 1: people watching a super Bowl. This one's gotta be and

824
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:48,640
Speaker 1: maybe half that right for this, for Joe and Josh,

825
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:56,640
Speaker 1: how do you miss that? If you're an American, you're

826
00:46:56,680 --> 00:47:05,160
Speaker 1: an American? How do you miss this? That's so bad? Yeah,

827
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:08,920
Speaker 1: they're gonna it's gonna be a massive number three o'clock.

828
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:10,800
Speaker 1: And here for this for those of you don't know,

829
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 1: you always say, wow, they didn't get a primetime game. No,

830
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:16,880
Speaker 1: this is prime the late afternoon on Sunday afternoon notoriously

831
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 1: is the massive time slot for NFL games. The four

832
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:25,440
Speaker 1: o'clock game on Sunday afternoon is the one that busts

833
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:29,760
Speaker 1: the bank ye with viewership. So they gave Bill's Bengals

834
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 1: that slot. It is, and that is the that is

835
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:39,120
Speaker 1: the time slot of the entire weekend, that is the

836
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:44,759
Speaker 1: most coveted by television, that slot. And those two teams

837
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 1: are there, not by accident, that's right. And yeah, this

00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:25,160
Speaker 1: like walking around here, it's a it's a like it's

888
00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,520

891
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:37,160
Speaker 1: it's a positive energy bubble that's just floating around the facility.

892
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,120
Speaker 1: The front seven here with the Bengals. So in your

893
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:44,799
Speaker 1: film study that you've done, what sticks out about how

894
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:48,799
Speaker 1: they're able to try to get the quarterback? High high,

895
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 1: high effort, you know, like they they play through and

896
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: pass the whistle and uh, that's really what stands out

897
00:51:57,239 --> 00:52:01,480
Speaker 1: the most. Um, their effort is outstanding and they and

898
00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:05,360
Speaker 1: they play hard. You guys when it's a game coming up,

899
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:08,160
Speaker 1: a game where seven sacks and the turnovers and all that,

900
00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:10,640
Speaker 1: but you guys still win, is it easier to kind

901
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:13,800
Speaker 1: of look back with coming off win and correct that stuff?

902
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 1: Like does that help when you look back to I

903
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:18,560
Speaker 1: don't know, having that win, but like also then looking

904
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 1: at what went wrong with that stuff? You know, like

905
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:24,439
Speaker 1: you see it as stuff like went wrong. I see

906
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:27,279
Speaker 1: it as the ups and downs of a football game.

907
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:29,120
Speaker 1: Like stuff like that is supposed to happen. Guys are

908
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:31,680
Speaker 1: supposed to make tackles, Guys are supposed to get sacks.

909
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:33,480
Speaker 1: Guys are supposed to do and what they do, like

910
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 1: it's the playoffs now, like everybody's playing their best ball.

911
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:43,439
Speaker 1: So it's just high energy, high like comp So it's

912
00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:46,800
Speaker 1: like it is and what it is. But we know

913
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:49,120
Speaker 1: as a group that we have to tighten up, and

914
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:50,799
Speaker 1: we have to make sure that we're all on our

915
00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 1: ps and our ques so we could execute at a

916
00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,080
Speaker 1: high level that we know that we're capable of execute.

917
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 1: That idem what happened to play before your head to

918
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:03,400
Speaker 1: come off for a play, So happened like like what what?

919
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:06,919
Speaker 1: What was the injury? I mean, I just got aired

920
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,040
Speaker 1: out a little bit, you know, lost win and then

921
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:11,839
Speaker 1: you know, I just took a knee just to take

922
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:15,320
Speaker 1: a knee and uh and uh, you know, took a playoff.

923
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,920
Speaker 1: A lot of strategies on like fourth and one in

924
00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:21,560
Speaker 1: fourth and short this year, you've got guys pushing the

925
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:24,400
Speaker 1: quarterback forward. You've got the quarterback leaping forward. What's the

926
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 1: conversation Like, as an offensive lineman when you're trying to block,

927
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:31,120
Speaker 1: you maybe don't know what's going on behind you. There's

928
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:35,840
Speaker 1: really no conversation. It's just it's just ball. Like with

929
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:40,399
Speaker 1: seventeen doing what he does, you really don't know what's

930
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:43,000
Speaker 1: going to happen. He could be jumping over somebody, somebody

931
00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:45,640
Speaker 1: could catch him, and we could try to catch him

932
00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:47,719
Speaker 1: in the air while somebody else is catching him, and

933
00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 1: we just got to just adapt to whatever is going

934
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:52,800
Speaker 1: and going on, you know, and uh, and that just

935
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:55,560
Speaker 1: goes to playing through the whistle and playing past the whistle,

936
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 1: you know, because all of our guys know how to

937
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:02,080
Speaker 1: extend plays. So with everything happening behind us until it's

938
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:04,000
Speaker 1: in front of us, we just have to just hope

939
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:06,960
Speaker 1: for the best and trust our technique and then when

940
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,200
Speaker 1: stuff happens, you know, we all just hit the ground

941
00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:14,640
Speaker 1: running and try to adapt to whatever like situation is ahead. Sure,

942
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:21,279
Speaker 1: Transaday had best season. You've been around him for quite

943
00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:22,960
Speaker 1: a bit and I know he's on the other side

944
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,239
Speaker 1: of the ball, but what have you seen out of

945
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:27,720
Speaker 1: him this season? He had a couple of really big plays,

946
00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:31,279
Speaker 1: a couple of really big hits, and yeah, you know,

947
00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:36,200
Speaker 1: it's a it's a beautiful site, um for a player

948
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:39,400
Speaker 1: that was young. But he's not young anymore to you know,

949
00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:44,080
Speaker 1: finally come into a hole and uh, that just comes

950
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:47,279
Speaker 1: and with growth and time. And we all knew and

951
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:50,919
Speaker 1: we all know that honestly, every player in that locker

952
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:54,040
Speaker 1: room has potential to be great. You know, it's just

953
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:58,880
Speaker 1: finally U Tremaine's turn to to be great and cross

954
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:01,920
Speaker 1: that that lead line, you know, and he's and he's

955
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:04,920
Speaker 1: crossing it, and he's making plays when we act him too,

956
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:07,480
Speaker 1: and he's stepping up in big moments, and that's what

957
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:11,280
Speaker 1: we need to to continue to win. We need everybody

958
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:14,759
Speaker 1: to play their best ball, and he's showing it as

959
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,200
Speaker 1: well as as well as other guys. But you know,

960
00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:21,400
Speaker 1: like with flows of a of a guy's career, like

961
00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 1: he knows what's next, so he's he's playing for bigger purposes,

962
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,960
Speaker 1: like he has family, he has emotions, he has teammates,

963
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:34,560
Speaker 1: he has his individual battle with Damar and everything everything

964
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:38,200
Speaker 1: goes into the individual players. So you're seeing all like

965
00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:41,160
Speaker 1: all those emotions hit the football field, which is a

966
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:44,680
Speaker 1: beautiful site. All right. That's Dean Dawkins addressing the media

967
00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:50,280
Speaker 1: after the walkthrough practice today. Maybe Dion's most interesting comment

968
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:56,479
Speaker 1: dealt with his characterization of the Bengals front seven, which

969
00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:59,839
Speaker 1: he said was, you know, kind of a lunch pale

970
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:04,040
Speaker 1: group playing not only to the whistle, but through the whistle.

971
00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:06,920
Speaker 1: And that's kind of the description that you'll get, especially

972
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:10,759
Speaker 1: of their front forward defenders Hubbard and Hendrickson in particular.

973
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:16,120
Speaker 1: Those guys may not be considered elite athlete talents, but

974
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:20,279
Speaker 1: those guys are grinders and they don't mind jumping into

975
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:24,359
Speaker 1: the meat grinder for eighty plays if necessary. You see,

976
00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:26,359
Speaker 1: you're ready. At the end of the football game last

977
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,960
Speaker 1: week and Hubbards running ninety eight yards with a fumble return,

978
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:32,400
Speaker 1: taking the oxygen mask afterwards on the sidelines. If that

979
00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:39,719
Speaker 1: play doesn't happen, everything stays the same. They win, Baltimore wins. Yeah,

980
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 1: I get it. You're right. They are. They're really Their

981
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:49,520
Speaker 1: defense statistically is just shy of buffaloes. They're gritty, they're

982
00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:54,399
Speaker 1: very there. And we talked to Dave Lappin this week

983
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:57,759
Speaker 1: on Bills by the Numbers. He said, they they are

984
00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:01,319
Speaker 1: a finish the play kind of defense. They give up

985
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:04,040
Speaker 1: a big play and it turns into a fumble for them,

986
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:07,759
Speaker 1: and it goes the other way. They continue to do

987
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:13,120
Speaker 1: things even if you think you've got them. It's that

988
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:17,840
Speaker 1: kind of attitude defense. Very gritty, very gritty. One of

989
00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 1: those easy defenses if you're a fan of that team,

990
00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:21,880
Speaker 1: is an easy defense to cheer for, you know, because

991
00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:23,959
Speaker 1: they're always doing something, even if they don't look great

992
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,600
Speaker 1: doing it all of a sudden, because they just give

993
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:30,520
Speaker 1: that extras something something, something great happens for him. Those

994
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:33,400
Speaker 1: are hard defenses. To play against. They really are, because

995
00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:34,920
Speaker 1: when you think you've got a good play and you're

996
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:37,560
Speaker 1: about to go down, somebody jumps in, punches it out late,

997
00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:40,920
Speaker 1: and it's a tragedy instead of victory. And I know

998
00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 1: that Bills fans love what Micah Hyde and Jordan Poyer

999
00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:51,520
Speaker 1: have provided this defense over the years. Cincinnati has a

1000
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:55,480
Speaker 1: similar tandem in Von Bell and Jesse Bates, two guys

1001
00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:58,240
Speaker 1: you know that are Pro Bowl caliber players. They could

1002
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 1: takeaways and they're really good at disguising coverage post snap.

1003
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:06,200
Speaker 1: They do a lot of similar things as a tandem

1004
00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:09,240
Speaker 1: that Pawyer and Hide have done for years here. So

1005
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,920
Speaker 1: it's a safety tandem that needs to be respected in

1006
00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 1: the passing game maybe more than anywhere else. Yeah, yeah,

1007
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:21,120
Speaker 1: as proud of Bills fans are of the safety tandem

1008
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:25,880
Speaker 1: when they're healthy. That's exactly what Cincinnati's at. So as

1009
00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:28,240
Speaker 1: you get into these games, these divisional games, the chap

1010
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:31,280
Speaker 1: AFC Championship, Conference championships, and certainly the Super Bowl, you're

1011
00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:36,000
Speaker 1: playing teams not only they're gifted, but they've been productive

1012
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:41,040
Speaker 1: and they're playing on an uptick. Yeah, you know, they're

1013
00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,960
Speaker 1: they've got a lot of confidence going and they have

1014
00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:49,840
Speaker 1: learned to play with whatever limitations they have, limit those

1015
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:52,880
Speaker 1: and maximize their gifts. Man, they're really tough to beat

1016
00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 1: all these teams, and that includes the Bills, of course

1017
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:59,360
Speaker 1: they're in that mix. But I think these games, the

1018
00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:03,680
Speaker 1: four games, and I'm looking at even the Chiefs Jaguars game,

1019
00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:05,760
Speaker 1: where you got a Jags team who was had technically

1020
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:08,400
Speaker 1: they were division champs, but they were, you know, and

1021
00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:12,160
Speaker 1: they and they get in and they win last week

1022
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:15,800
Speaker 1: over a Chargers team that was probably more gifted than

1023
00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:20,360
Speaker 1: they were. All I see all four of these games

1024
00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:23,440
Speaker 1: NFC and a FCS one score games this weekend. I

1025
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:25,120
Speaker 1: think it's really going to be tough to go off

1026
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:28,280
Speaker 1: and leave one of these teams on the scoreboard because

1027
00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:31,400
Speaker 1: they're good enough to come back. Even when they mess around.

1028
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:33,680
Speaker 1: When the Bills turn it over three times, they still

1029
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,200
Speaker 1: end up having a ten point lead late in the game.

1030
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,920
Speaker 1: You know, the Chiefs, we've seen them stumble and fumble around,

1031
00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:43,480
Speaker 1: get taken to overtime by the Houston Texans and you know, okay,

1032
00:59:43,520 --> 00:59:45,040
Speaker 1: we win it. They just go ahead and win it.

1033
00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:48,520
Speaker 1: So they're able to overcome their own mistakes and they're

1034
00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 1: used to it. They're they're not afraid of one score games.

1035
00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: They're just comfortable. They got a lot of confidence on

1036
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:57,640
Speaker 1: both sides of the ball, all these teams. So I

1037
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,320
Speaker 1: think these are really close games, really close all the

1038
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:03,800
Speaker 1: way across the board. Buffalo Cincinnati no different. Yeah, I

1039
01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:05,680
Speaker 1: think you gotta buckle up, and I think hebby. I

1040
01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:09,600
Speaker 1: gotta think you gotta be prepared to be nauseous match. Yeah,

1041
01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:11,840
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to be prepared to be nauseous because

1042
01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:14,600
Speaker 1: it's not gonna look good at times. Yeah, and it

1043
01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:17,800
Speaker 1: could come down to who has the ball asked, quite frankly, Yeah,

1044
01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:21,360
Speaker 1: that could be the no matter, no matter how much

1045
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:24,800
Speaker 1: or how little times on the thing exactly we've heard

1046
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:26,760
Speaker 1: from the offensive side of the ball. Now, let's go

1047
01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 1: back to the post practice lectern and here the defense's

1048
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:34,400
Speaker 1: perspective on this upcoming game with the Bengals. Here is

1049
01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:38,560
Speaker 1: one of the defensive captains, Jordan Poyer, for two teams

1050
01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 1: that shared a similar experience three weeks ago. And you

1051
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:45,080
Speaker 1: guys came together as captains on the field, off the field,

1052
01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:47,400
Speaker 1: what do you think the start of this game will

1053
01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:51,280
Speaker 1: be like? Emotionally knowing you know how that game ended.

1054
01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:55,720
Speaker 1: That's a good question. Everybody thought about that. Um, you know,

1055
01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:57,840
Speaker 1: I think obviously two teams that you know, we're in

1056
01:00:57,880 --> 01:01:00,320
Speaker 1: the playoffs, want to win. Obviously going through it through

1057
01:01:00,800 --> 01:01:03,600
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks back. Um, you know, I think

1058
01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:06,320
Speaker 1: the good thing that everybody feels good about is that

1059
01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,120
Speaker 1: dam is back and he's in the building now, he's

1060
01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:11,800
Speaker 1: he's he's here today. Um. You know, it's just awesome

1061
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:14,960
Speaker 1: to see him and and and in great spirits back here.

1062
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:16,960
Speaker 1: And it brings all of our spirits together so and

1063
01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:19,640
Speaker 1: brings all of our spirits up. So, Um, you know,

1064
01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:21,560
Speaker 1: I don't think it should be any different than any

1065
01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:23,840
Speaker 1: other game that we've been in I've been a part of. Obviously,

1066
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:26,240
Speaker 1: Like I said, two teams that two really good teams

1067
01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:29,040
Speaker 1: that want to win. It's playoffs, and so we're expecting

1068
01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:31,640
Speaker 1: a really great atmosphere and we're excited for the opportunity.

1069
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:36,760
Speaker 1: Does that help emotionally knowing see get past what happened

1070
01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:39,760
Speaker 1: for you guys, we start seeing the mark here and

1071
01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:42,400
Speaker 1: smiling and all that. Yeah, I said, I think it

1072
01:01:42,440 --> 01:01:45,000
Speaker 1: brings everybody's spirits up. Um. And I think after you know,

1073
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:47,600
Speaker 1: the Patriots game, we kind of dealt with the biggest

1074
01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:50,640
Speaker 1: amount of emotions. Um, you know, a week a week later.

1075
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:52,960
Speaker 1: But like I said, d Han's back in the building now,

1076
01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:54,960
Speaker 1: and you know, it's awesome to see his face as

1077
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:56,960
Speaker 1: awesome to see him smiling again. And so I don't

1078
01:01:56,960 --> 01:01:59,000
Speaker 1: think this game will be any different. It's kind of

1079
01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:01,800
Speaker 1: unique in a sense that you know, you've played part

1080
01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:04,960
Speaker 1: of the first quarter against them January second, and now

1081
01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:07,640
Speaker 1: you have them here. But in terms of preparations, how

1082
01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:10,120
Speaker 1: does that make it different? Can you take anything from

1083
01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:12,480
Speaker 1: from the preps you did at that time and kind

1084
01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:15,400
Speaker 1: of roll it into this game. Yeah, I think you can, Um,

1085
01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:17,480
Speaker 1: you know, pick some stuff here and there. You know,

1086
01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:20,560
Speaker 1: we only had eight plays in the game, and so

1087
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:22,880
Speaker 1: when you go back and you look at those eight plays,

1088
01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:24,600
Speaker 1: you can kind of get a sense of you know,

1089
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:26,680
Speaker 1: and they're they're feeling the same way. You know, get

1090
01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:28,280
Speaker 1: a sense of how they were trying to attack us

1091
01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:30,960
Speaker 1: in the same vice versa how we were trying to

1092
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:33,800
Speaker 1: attack them. And so obviously, you know, probably a couple

1093
01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:36,720
Speaker 1: more wrinkles here and there for both sides of the football. So, um,

1094
01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:38,440
Speaker 1: like I said, we're excited about the opportunity. It's a

1095
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:40,280
Speaker 1: good football team. We're a good football team too. It's

1096
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:42,360
Speaker 1: gonna be a hell of atmosphere and we're excited to play.

1097
01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:46,000
Speaker 1: Have you seen Kayer you to develop, you know, since

1098
01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:48,560
Speaker 1: the beginning of his rookie Yeah, just continuing to grow

1099
01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:50,480
Speaker 1: each and every week, Um, each and every day, each

1100
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,080
Speaker 1: and every week. UM. It's a player that you know,

1101
01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:55,200
Speaker 1: I respect a lot just because you know the where

1102
01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:56,800
Speaker 1: actually I see the work that he puts into his

1103
01:02:56,920 --> 01:02:59,080
Speaker 1: craft and you know he's starting to see it payoff.

1104
01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:01,120
Speaker 1: You know, the big plays that he made over the

1105
01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:03,040
Speaker 1: last weekend, and you know the plays that he's going

1106
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:04,960
Speaker 1: to continue to make for telp Our team win football

1107
01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:07,320
Speaker 1: games and so um. Just a really smart player, really

1108
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:09,920
Speaker 1: dedicated player who you know, he's coming along his own

1109
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,160
Speaker 1: as a rookie. Um. You know, it's it's not an

1110
01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 1: easy positioned to be in, you know, as a rookie corner,

1111
01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:17,640
Speaker 1: especially first round pick having to you know, him and

1112
01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:19,760
Speaker 1: Dane are coming on and off the field every series

1113
01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:22,880
Speaker 1: or so, and so UM, you know, I respect him

1114
01:03:22,920 --> 01:03:24,640
Speaker 1: for his craft and what he's been able to do

1115
01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:27,040
Speaker 1: for us, um as a rookie, and you know he's

1116
01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:30,479
Speaker 1: going to continue to make plays for us. What stands

1117
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:32,480
Speaker 1: out to you about Joe Burrow. Obviously one of the

1118
01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:34,120
Speaker 1: top quarterbacks in the league. But why do you think

1119
01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:36,680
Speaker 1: he's so special? Yeah, you know, I think he just

1120
01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:40,240
Speaker 1: has a very good command of that offense and what

1121
01:03:40,400 --> 01:03:42,280
Speaker 1: he's able to do. Obviously, has a lot of trust

1122
01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:44,840
Speaker 1: in his receivers. Um, you know, one of the top

1123
01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:48,120
Speaker 1: receiving corps in the in the in the in the NFL. So, UM,

1124
01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:51,040
Speaker 1: you know, he has a very good understanding of what

1125
01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:53,280
Speaker 1: he sees on the other side of the football. Um,

1126
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:56,040
Speaker 1: he has a very good understanding of of of timing

1127
01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:59,400
Speaker 1: and his receivers that routes and um, he's very smart,

1128
01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:01,640
Speaker 1: very intel leg and so UM got a lot of

1129
01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:03,600
Speaker 1: respect for Joe Burrow and what he's what he's been

1130
01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:05,760
Speaker 1: able to do ever since you know LSU, even what

1131
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:07,640
Speaker 1: he's been able to do since he came into the league,

1132
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:09,800
Speaker 1: and you know, to see him grow into you know,

1133
01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:11,480
Speaker 1: who he is now. So you know, we're gonna have

1134
01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:13,280
Speaker 1: our hands full. We're gonna have to play extremely able

1135
01:04:13,320 --> 01:04:16,280
Speaker 1: to win. Um. And uh, you know, they got good players.

1136
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:18,080
Speaker 1: We got good players as well. So it's gonna be fun.

1137
01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:20,919
Speaker 1: That's because it was the first time you faced Joe.

1138
01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:24,440
Speaker 1: UM was it good even though you had eight ninety

1139
01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:27,280
Speaker 1: seven plays, Was it good to get an on field

1140
01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:30,880
Speaker 1: sense of rhythm or or just kind of at least

1141
01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:33,280
Speaker 1: get that first taste because you guys, you guys have

1142
01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:36,080
Speaker 1: never faced them before. Yeah. I mean, I think every

1143
01:04:36,120 --> 01:04:38,600
Speaker 1: game has its has its own way of you know,

1144
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:41,600
Speaker 1: you know, feeling the rhythm throughout the game. And you know,

1145
01:04:41,640 --> 01:04:44,600
Speaker 1: it's hard to get into a good rhythm, you know,

1146
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:47,240
Speaker 1: seven eight plays into the game, and so you know,

1147
01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:49,240
Speaker 1: you know, as the game goes along, you start to

1148
01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:51,440
Speaker 1: get a better field of the game. And so, um,

1149
01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:54,080
Speaker 1: you know that experience that we had in Cincinnati, it's

1150
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,400
Speaker 1: gonna be a totally different experience. You know, come in

1151
01:04:56,480 --> 01:04:59,800
Speaker 1: here to Buffalo and playing here. So um, like Sarialy,

1152
01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:01,480
Speaker 1: they got good players, we got good players too. It's

1153
01:05:01,520 --> 01:05:03,439
Speaker 1: gonna be a fun atmosphere and we're excited to play.

1154
01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:06,880
Speaker 1: But we're just want to follow up the word um

1155
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:09,400
Speaker 1: and describing the relationship he has with those receivers. That's

1156
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:11,040
Speaker 1: the way it's been described to me too, Like he's

1157
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:13,800
Speaker 1: so accurate that ball's going to the spot. There's a

1158
01:05:13,840 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 1: lot of yards after the catch type thing. Because I

1159
01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:18,600
Speaker 1: make it kind of a unique challenge and having a

1160
01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:20,720
Speaker 1: place them is that the biggest thing? Uh, you know,

1161
01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:22,200
Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot of I mean, they're they're

1162
01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:25,440
Speaker 1: good players. Like I said, they've jamar and and and Joe.

1163
01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:27,160
Speaker 1: They've been playing together for a long time and so

1164
01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:30,080
Speaker 1: that timing and itself has been there before they even

1165
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:33,520
Speaker 1: got to Cincinnati, and so, um, you know, they don't

1166
01:05:33,600 --> 01:05:35,880
Speaker 1: run a complicated offense. But what they do is they

1167
01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:39,720
Speaker 1: do what they do well. Um, and their receivers make plays.

1168
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:42,080
Speaker 1: They like you said, you run after the catch, um

1169
01:05:42,160 --> 01:05:44,840
Speaker 1: the yak yards and and um he's able to. You know,

1170
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:47,280
Speaker 1: there's a lot of routes that you know, chases at

1171
01:05:47,320 --> 01:05:49,480
Speaker 1: the top of his route and Joe's already throwing the

1172
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:52,640
Speaker 1: ball before he gets out of his break, and so um, yeah,

1173
01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:54,680
Speaker 1: it does make it a challenge in but you know,

1174
01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:56,560
Speaker 1: at the same time, we're gonna have to They're gonna

1175
01:05:56,560 --> 01:05:58,200
Speaker 1: make some plays. We're just gonna have to be able

1176
01:05:58,240 --> 01:05:59,720
Speaker 1: to you know, they get catch the ball, we have

1177
01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:02,400
Speaker 1: to be catch tackle and limit yards after catching, limit

1178
01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:04,880
Speaker 1: explosive plays. And you know, you guys aren't going to

1179
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:08,040
Speaker 1: have like this week obviously, but is there almost like

1180
01:06:08,120 --> 01:06:10,760
Speaker 1: an extra motivation just to give him a chance to

1181
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:13,000
Speaker 1: get back. Yeah, I think it's been extra motivation all

1182
01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:15,600
Speaker 1: season long. Um, you know he's been in the building,

1183
01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 1: you know, in the meetings, just helping us out, um,

1184
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:21,800
Speaker 1: you know, helping myself, helping the younger guys out in

1185
01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:23,760
Speaker 1: the position, telling us what he sees. So it's it's

1186
01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 1: been awesome to have him. You know, it's like he's

1187
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:28,480
Speaker 1: never left obviously other than being on the field with me.

1188
01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:31,440
Speaker 1: So m yeah, I guess he could say, does give

1189
01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:33,560
Speaker 1: you extra motivation? I would love to play with Mike again,

1190
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:37,040
Speaker 1: and you know he's working extremely hard to get back,

1191
01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:40,400
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, we'll see what happens, all right.

1192
01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:44,640
Speaker 1: So that's Jordan Poyer addressing the media, and I found

1193
01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:50,200
Speaker 1: it interesting his characterization of how how the first meeting

1194
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:52,280
Speaker 1: between these two teams three weeks ago, even though it

1195
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:57,720
Speaker 1: was only about fifteen eighteen plays play, really isn't going

1196
01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:00,440
Speaker 1: to amount too much for them because he thinks this

1197
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:02,560
Speaker 1: is gonna be a totally different thing, which I mean

1198
01:07:02,640 --> 01:07:05,320
Speaker 1: every game is, even though the same people might be

1199
01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:09,040
Speaker 1: on the field, but the whole vibe going into the game,

1200
01:07:09,840 --> 01:07:13,080
Speaker 1: what's on the line is different. And so I think

1201
01:07:13,120 --> 01:07:15,600
Speaker 1: they feel that this game will be completely different from

1202
01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:18,000
Speaker 1: that one. And I just get the sense they don't

1203
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:20,120
Speaker 1: feel that they can pull too much from that one.

1204
01:07:20,880 --> 01:07:22,840
Speaker 1: I don't either. I don't think they can. Certainly they're

1205
01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:25,000
Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna be watching one extra game of film

1206
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:28,560
Speaker 1: from week eighteen and then yet last week as well.

1207
01:07:29,840 --> 01:07:34,840
Speaker 1: That's about it. The Baltimore game is gonna look completely

1208
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:36,560
Speaker 1: different than anything the Bills are gonna want to do

1209
01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:44,640
Speaker 1: against these guys. The Miami game with Skyler Thompson, how

1210
01:07:44,720 --> 01:07:46,520
Speaker 1: much is that going to tell them about what they

1211
01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:51,680
Speaker 1: can do against the Bills. Yeah, there's Yeah, it's I

1212
01:07:51,720 --> 01:07:53,440
Speaker 1: think it's a wash. I think you just go out

1213
01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:55,360
Speaker 1: and play it like a fresh game. And I don't know,

1214
01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:57,480
Speaker 1: and I think it'll it'll feel like a fresh game

1215
01:07:57,520 --> 01:08:01,200
Speaker 1: because it's gonna be in Buffalo. Well, right, it's gonna

1216
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:03,240
Speaker 1: be a home playoff game. It's not just gonna be

1217
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:05,040
Speaker 1: a Monday night game. Although it was a big game.

1218
01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:07,960
Speaker 1: This is going to be a completely different animal than

1219
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:12,520
Speaker 1: the one was in Cincinnati. Yeah, the Bills Wednesday injury

1220
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:16,200
Speaker 1: report is out. There are new additions to the injury report.

1221
01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:19,720
Speaker 1: Dane Jackson, as we anticipated, who left last week's game

1222
01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:23,840
Speaker 1: with a knee injury was considered a limited participant now,

1223
01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:26,679
Speaker 1: as we told you earlier, today was just to walk

1224
01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:31,759
Speaker 1: through practice. So these practice participation levels are an estimate

1225
01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:34,080
Speaker 1: of where each of these players would be had they

1226
01:08:34,200 --> 01:08:37,600
Speaker 1: practiced in a normal fashion, you know, with shells and

1227
01:08:38,160 --> 01:08:41,880
Speaker 1: team segments, the whole thing. Dane Jackson a limited participant

1228
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:44,479
Speaker 1: with a knee injury, and new to the injury report,

1229
01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:48,720
Speaker 1: Dea Kwon Jones limited with a calf injury. So we'll

1230
01:08:48,760 --> 01:08:50,240
Speaker 1: have to keep an eye on those two as the

1231
01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:54,200
Speaker 1: week progresses. The good news is Isaiah McKenzie is a

1232
01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:57,760
Speaker 1: full participant coming off the hamstring injury that kept him

1233
01:08:57,760 --> 01:09:00,960
Speaker 1: out of last week's game. Jordan phil who's been dealing

1234
01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:04,160
Speaker 1: with the shoulder injury for weeks now, a limited participant,

1235
01:09:04,200 --> 01:09:07,040
Speaker 1: as was Jordan Poyer with his knee injury, but that's

1236
01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:09,439
Speaker 1: kind of been par for the course the last several weeks.

1237
01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:12,760
Speaker 1: He practices on a limited basis, if at all, all

1238
01:09:12,840 --> 01:09:16,600
Speaker 1: week long, and then suits up for the game. So

1239
01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:20,679
Speaker 1: those are the headlines from the injury report for today,

1240
01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:24,320
Speaker 1: and obviously we'll watch and see how people progress through

1241
01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:25,960
Speaker 1: the course of the week. With the Thursday and then

1242
01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:30,400
Speaker 1: finally the Friday injury report. Daquan Jones has been a

1243
01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:33,559
Speaker 1: horse for this team all season long. I think every

1244
01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:35,800
Speaker 1: one of the other defensive tackles has missed time with

1245
01:09:35,920 --> 01:09:39,400
Speaker 1: injuries this year, and Jones has not, so they really

1246
01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:41,000
Speaker 1: need him to get healthy in a hurry this week.

1247
01:09:41,040 --> 01:09:45,519
Speaker 1: They're gonna need him deck always as it is in

1248
01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:49,080
Speaker 1: the playoffs. But yeah, and we've said it from the

1249
01:09:49,120 --> 01:09:53,560
Speaker 1: beginning of the season, the difference this season is the

1250
01:09:53,680 --> 01:09:56,160
Speaker 1: play of the defensive defensively has been the play of

1251
01:09:56,160 --> 01:10:01,000
Speaker 1: the defensive tackles down inside. Jones, Settle decidedly better than

1252
01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:05,800
Speaker 1: lasted right and Jordan Phillips. Those guys have been fantastic

1253
01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:09,080
Speaker 1: all the way around, and it's really helped the pass

1254
01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:10,640
Speaker 1: rush a lot in a lot of in a lot

1255
01:10:10,680 --> 01:10:12,760
Speaker 1: of ways. I'm sure Von Miller appreciated it as well

1256
01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:17,760
Speaker 1: when he was playing. So yeah, it'll be interesting to

1257
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:23,439
Speaker 1: see how it Injury wise, the Bills are way healthier

1258
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:27,120
Speaker 1: than the Cincinnati Bengals. Yeah, the Bills are walking in

1259
01:10:27,200 --> 01:10:29,559
Speaker 1: there with their full compliment of offensive linemen. The Bengals

1260
01:10:29,560 --> 01:10:33,080
Speaker 1: are not by any stretch of the imagination. So you

1261
01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:35,800
Speaker 1: know that's one plus for Buffalo. But you still got

1262
01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:39,880
Speaker 1: to play. I'm gonna check and see if the injury

1263
01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:42,040
Speaker 1: report for the Bengals is out yet for this week,

1264
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:46,880
Speaker 1: and it is not, so we wait on that and

1265
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:50,840
Speaker 1: for information there because they have two linemen that are

1266
01:10:50,880 --> 01:10:54,280
Speaker 1: of interest, who starting offensive linemen that are anticipated to

1267
01:10:54,360 --> 01:10:56,439
Speaker 1: appear on the injury report. We'll see if they have

1268
01:10:56,520 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 1: any participation in practice, and there are other guys kind

1269
01:10:59,960 --> 01:11:02,880
Speaker 1: of scattered across their roster that are a little nicked

1270
01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:08,599
Speaker 1: up going into this one. Let's take a look at

1271
01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:11,559
Speaker 1: the tweet sheet here while we have some time. As

1272
01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:15,120
Speaker 1: we were asking you today for your biggest storyline for

1273
01:11:15,280 --> 01:11:18,880
Speaker 1: Sunday's game against the Bengals. Tweet sheet brought to you,

1274
01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:21,960
Speaker 1: as always by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official equipment moving

1275
01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:26,160
Speaker 1: company of the Buffalo Bills, and Michael leads us off

1276
01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:29,920
Speaker 1: by saying, ball security on offense and can the defense

1277
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:32,960
Speaker 1: provide a score to change momentum. Bills only have one

1278
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:37,519
Speaker 1: defensive touchdown all season and that was Week two. Well,

1279
01:11:37,560 --> 01:11:39,280
Speaker 1: you are right about that. It was a Matt Milano

1280
01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:42,240
Speaker 1: interception return against the Titans on Monday Night Football. That

1281
01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:46,120
Speaker 1: is their only defensive touchdown. They did get a key

1282
01:11:46,160 --> 01:11:49,639
Speaker 1: takeaway deep in Miami territory last week from Kyrie Elam

1283
01:11:49,720 --> 01:11:52,320
Speaker 1: that led to a go ahead touchdown. So that was

1284
01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:55,960
Speaker 1: a positive. Yeah, I'll take a defensive touchdown any day

1285
01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:58,599
Speaker 1: of the week. I'll sign up for that. Oh, are

1286
01:11:58,640 --> 01:12:01,960
Speaker 1: you kidding? Almost makes you feel like the Bills are

1287
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:05,320
Speaker 1: overdue for one of them. Oh, listen to you spin

1288
01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:08,200
Speaker 1: it the law of averages. Spinning it all positive and

1289
01:12:08,280 --> 01:12:14,759
Speaker 1: stuff of averages to get you. Yeah. Yeah, it's Defense

1290
01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:17,200
Speaker 1: in the playoffs is about playmaking. It's not about being

1291
01:12:17,320 --> 01:12:20,599
Speaker 1: stifling usually, it's not about being a stifling run defense

1292
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:22,600
Speaker 1: or whatever. Because you're playing against a team, particularly in

1293
01:12:22,680 --> 01:12:25,360
Speaker 1: this day and age, against offenses that everything's tilted in

1294
01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:27,280
Speaker 1: their favor and they should be able to play really well.

1295
01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:31,479
Speaker 1: Even the Giants are looking good offensively. I say even

1296
01:12:31,520 --> 01:12:34,280
Speaker 1: the Giants because you know they're challenged on the outside,

1297
01:12:34,360 --> 01:12:40,000
Speaker 1: so they got a tight end playing x SO and

1298
01:12:40,160 --> 01:12:42,479
Speaker 1: this point of the season and this point in history,

1299
01:12:43,600 --> 01:12:46,800
Speaker 1: defense is about doing something spectacular, punching the ball out,

1300
01:12:46,840 --> 01:12:51,880
Speaker 1: getting a turnover, getting a sack, you know, intercepting that

1301
01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:54,240
Speaker 1: kind of thing. It's not so much about you know,

1302
01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:57,360
Speaker 1: keeping them to under fifty yards rushing for the game.

1303
01:12:57,439 --> 01:13:00,040
Speaker 1: That you know, it's about making plays. You know, you

1304
01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:03,320
Speaker 1: give up yards for Christmas. You give these guys a

1305
01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:05,479
Speaker 1: gift wrap yards if they'll cough it up at the

1306
01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:07,960
Speaker 1: end of it. Yeah, that's the way the game's played

1307
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:10,880
Speaker 1: these days. So yeah, and seeing that the Bills have

1308
01:13:11,040 --> 01:13:14,680
Speaker 1: one defensive touchdown all year, man, old man, wouldn't it

1309
01:13:14,720 --> 01:13:17,479
Speaker 1: be nice if they were due? Neil on the tweet

1310
01:13:17,560 --> 01:13:20,720
Speaker 1: sheet for his storyline for this game, says, can the

1311
01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:24,679
Speaker 1: Bills pass rush make enough disruptive plays against a banged

1312
01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:28,080
Speaker 1: up Bengals? Oh? Lie, that could be the crux of

1313
01:13:28,160 --> 01:13:33,360
Speaker 1: this matchup for sure. Steve, you had a stat earlier

1314
01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:37,479
Speaker 1: today about Burrow getting sacked a certain number of times

1315
01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:41,479
Speaker 1: in a football game. If it's under four, his record

1316
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:45,200
Speaker 1: is like twenty and three's and if he's sacked more

1317
01:13:45,280 --> 01:13:48,160
Speaker 1: than four times, he's like four and eight. He's twenty

1318
01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:51,439
Speaker 1: two and three. Since the beginning of last season, when

1319
01:13:51,479 --> 01:13:55,280
Speaker 1: he sacked fewer than four times in a game, he's

1320
01:13:55,320 --> 01:13:57,559
Speaker 1: four and eight. If he sacked more than four times,

1321
01:13:57,680 --> 01:14:01,720
Speaker 1: Get home, boys, Get home. I got to get him

1322
01:14:01,720 --> 01:14:03,400
Speaker 1: on the ground. You got to get him on the ground.

1323
01:14:03,439 --> 01:14:06,880
Speaker 1: And you know, for me, what will happen is they'll

1324
01:14:06,960 --> 01:14:09,479
Speaker 1: they'll it'll be a game where they're down close. All

1325
01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:11,760
Speaker 1: my guys, they're gonna win, and he'll get the four

1326
01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:13,760
Speaker 1: You'll get the fifth sack on the last play of

1327
01:14:13,800 --> 01:14:17,880
Speaker 1: the game, you know, because we will never help us, right,

1328
01:14:17,960 --> 01:14:20,200
Speaker 1: you never get four sacks on the first four past

1329
01:14:20,280 --> 01:14:22,040
Speaker 1: plays of the game to say, okay, we got a

1330
01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:24,519
Speaker 1: chance in this. You know, it always happens at the

1331
01:14:24,680 --> 01:14:28,320
Speaker 1: end when when it's difference making. So yeah, that that

1332
01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:31,519
Speaker 1: was interesting to me. And certainly you know, Joe Burrow

1333
01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:35,360
Speaker 1: notoriously won a playoff game getting sacked nine times um

1334
01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:39,720
Speaker 1: last year. That was that was a huge story going

1335
01:14:39,760 --> 01:14:44,160
Speaker 1: into the AFC Championship game in Kansas City. So it uh,

1336
01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:48,679
Speaker 1: it remains to be part of his story. He even

1337
01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:50,680
Speaker 1: at the beginning of this year and late last year.

1338
01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:54,440
Speaker 1: Really it's hard to find fault with most of these quarterbacks.

1339
01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:57,639
Speaker 1: Josh you can say, well, he plays a little hero ball. Yeah, okay,

1340
01:14:57,800 --> 01:15:00,280
Speaker 1: that's that's who he is. And Mahomes does some crazy

1341
01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:02,920
Speaker 1: stuff with the ball. They turn it over a little

1342
01:15:02,920 --> 01:15:05,920
Speaker 1: too much, okay, but you've got to be willing to

1343
01:15:06,080 --> 01:15:11,040
Speaker 1: live with it. And it's been said about Joe Burrow

1344
01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:13,000
Speaker 1: one of the things he does once in a while

1345
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:15,559
Speaker 1: to hang onto a little too long, and that does

1346
01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:17,680
Speaker 1: lead to some extra sacks once in a while. Now

1347
01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:20,000
Speaker 1: they're better around him, and he's better at it as

1348
01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:23,120
Speaker 1: time passes, as he's learning as well. He's not stupid.

1349
01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:26,519
Speaker 1: He learns too. But that's one of the things early on,

1350
01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:29,800
Speaker 1: like last year and this year, that you know, maybe

1351
01:15:29,840 --> 01:15:31,320
Speaker 1: he does hang on to it a little too long.

1352
01:15:32,640 --> 01:15:35,880
Speaker 1: Von Miller a while, is around the facility on a

1353
01:15:35,960 --> 01:15:38,519
Speaker 1: daily basis. He's in meetings, he's hanging with his teammates

1354
01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:42,080
Speaker 1: even though he cannot play. Did something interesting in the

1355
01:15:42,160 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 1: Bills locker room today. We'll tell you what it was

1356
01:15:44,640 --> 01:15:47,439
Speaker 1: when we return here on one Bill's Live, presented by

1357
01:15:47,479 --> 01:16:07,559
Speaker 1: Kalid to Health. It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All Right, welcome

1358
01:16:07,600 --> 01:16:09,759
Speaker 1: back to one of Bill's Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker,

1359
01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:13,479
Speaker 1: and quickly Von Miller, who has been around the team

1360
01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:15,080
Speaker 1: as we know, he's been at the last couple of

1361
01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:18,240
Speaker 1: games on the sideline, you know, kind of being here

1362
01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:21,519
Speaker 1: for his teammates. Went into the locker room today with

1363
01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:25,080
Speaker 1: a replicable Lombardi trophy, put it down and basically said,

1364
01:16:25,720 --> 01:16:28,840
Speaker 1: you said you'd do anything for it. Now's the time.

1365
01:16:32,880 --> 01:16:36,080
Speaker 1: I kind of like it making a statement. I know

1366
01:16:36,200 --> 01:16:38,680
Speaker 1: how everybody gets these superstitious things like it used to be.

1367
01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:41,920
Speaker 1: Couldn't nobody in interviews or television interviews or radio interviews

1368
01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,160
Speaker 1: could ever mention the word super Bowl and all that stuff.

1369
01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:47,920
Speaker 1: Nobody would touch the kind nobody championship and all that stuff. Yeah,

1370
01:16:48,080 --> 01:16:49,960
Speaker 1: none of that, None of that matters. That you got

1371
01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:53,280
Speaker 1: to you. You know, I'm not saying I'm not saying

1372
01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:55,599
Speaker 1: it's just as easy as speaking it into existence either,

1373
01:16:56,479 --> 01:16:59,680
Speaker 1: But do what you gotta do to put it, make

1374
01:16:59,720 --> 01:17:02,160
Speaker 1: it for all the guys. And that's and Vaughan did

1375
01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:05,240
Speaker 1: I mean bringing that trophy in and setting it down

1376
01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:07,080
Speaker 1: in front of those guys and saying you said you'd

1377
01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:10,000
Speaker 1: do anything for it. I've said this to a lot

1378
01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:14,960
Speaker 1: of football youth, a lot of young players during my time,

1379
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:18,240
Speaker 1: where you go out and speak to young player as

1380
01:17:18,280 --> 01:17:21,400
Speaker 1: a former player and a former pro and even when

1381
01:17:21,439 --> 01:17:23,800
Speaker 1: I was a pro, you go out and you talk

1382
01:17:23,880 --> 01:17:26,200
Speaker 1: to young kids and they want to be a pro

1383
01:17:26,320 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 1: football player so bad, and they tell you that they'll

1384
01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:31,160
Speaker 1: say these words, I'll do anything to be a pro

1385
01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:33,760
Speaker 1: football player. You'll do anything to be a pro football player.

1386
01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:35,960
Speaker 1: You know, I say, okay, that's great. And then you

1387
01:17:36,040 --> 01:17:37,880
Speaker 1: get to the pros and you get drafted by a

1388
01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:40,080
Speaker 1: pro not only will you not do everything to be

1389
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:43,920
Speaker 1: a pro football player, you won't cover kicks. I'll do

1390
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:45,760
Speaker 1: anything to be a pro football player. Oh, you won't

1391
01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:48,559
Speaker 1: cover kicks though. You won't cover kicks for the Buffalo

1392
01:17:48,680 --> 01:17:51,120
Speaker 1: Bills or the San Francisco forty nine ers. You don't

1393
01:17:51,120 --> 01:17:52,439
Speaker 1: do it. You ain't gonna do it. Unless you get

1394
01:17:52,439 --> 01:17:54,799
Speaker 1: to play running back or you get to play quarterback

1395
01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:57,719
Speaker 1: or tight end, you ain't gonna do it. What happened

1396
01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:01,280
Speaker 1: to I'll do anything? What happened into that? And it's

1397
01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:03,240
Speaker 1: a great reminder. You come in and set that trophy down.

1398
01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:07,920
Speaker 1: It's real. What you said you would do anything. What

1399
01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:11,759
Speaker 1: are you gonna do? Um, it's it's a real statement.

1400
01:18:12,040 --> 01:18:14,160
Speaker 1: And when you get to a point like this, it's

1401
01:18:14,200 --> 01:18:17,599
Speaker 1: all a fairy tale until you step onto the field.

1402
01:18:18,640 --> 01:18:21,120
Speaker 1: And I did it four times, and you know we

1403
01:18:21,280 --> 01:18:24,600
Speaker 1: lost all four. I don't know if you heard. You

1404
01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:27,840
Speaker 1: step onto that field. It's real, and it's all fairy

1405
01:18:27,920 --> 01:18:30,559
Speaker 1: tale up until you something happens that you see, Man,

1406
01:18:30,640 --> 01:18:33,000
Speaker 1: it's real. It's tangible. Not only that the guy that

1407
01:18:33,200 --> 01:18:34,960
Speaker 1: stuck the replica trophy down in the middle of the

1408
01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:37,320
Speaker 1: locker room is also one two of those. That's right,

1409
01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:40,200
Speaker 1: that's his first or second one, whichever one it is.

1410
01:18:40,800 --> 01:18:45,040
Speaker 1: Calling card. Yeah, that's that's really effective. And all this

1411
01:18:45,200 --> 01:18:46,920
Speaker 1: kid's stuff about it. I'm not going to touch the

1412
01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:49,040
Speaker 1: conference championship trophy. We ain't gonna do anything until it's

1413
01:18:49,160 --> 01:18:53,479
Speaker 1: until it's ours. Listen, whatever. You can make it a

1414
01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:56,639
Speaker 1: fairy tale if you want, but it's real. Yeah, it ain't.

1415
01:18:56,680 --> 01:19:01,120
Speaker 1: It ain't superstition, it's not hocus pocus. That trophy is.

1416
01:19:01,120 --> 01:19:03,519
Speaker 1: They're waiting to be won, and you better know what

1417
01:19:03,600 --> 01:19:06,840
Speaker 1: it looks like and feels like. Yeah, and you got

1418
01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:08,920
Speaker 1: to figure out until you do it. You got to

1419
01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:12,360
Speaker 1: figure out what it takes. And that's you know, Vaughan's there.

1420
01:19:12,439 --> 01:19:15,120
Speaker 1: And Vaughan has been awesome in the time that the

1421
01:19:15,160 --> 01:19:18,320
Speaker 1: Bills have had him. He speaks it, he is not shy,

1422
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:23,280
Speaker 1: and I think it's awesome. Yeah, awesome. We turn now

1423
01:19:23,520 --> 01:19:29,320
Speaker 1: to the post practice lectern where Mitch Morse answered questions

1424
01:19:29,360 --> 01:19:32,280
Speaker 1: of the media following the walk through practice. Today. Here

1425
01:19:32,360 --> 01:19:36,200
Speaker 1: now is the Bills Center and it's three weeks passed,

1426
01:19:36,320 --> 01:19:40,599
Speaker 1: and yet you're facing a two agether something that happened

1427
01:19:40,640 --> 01:19:43,400
Speaker 1: on the field, and how much is are there any

1428
01:19:43,840 --> 01:19:47,320
Speaker 1: I guess I want to say residual emotions or if

1429
01:19:47,360 --> 01:19:51,240
Speaker 1: you guys kind of cleanse that given how bonded you,

1430
01:19:51,520 --> 01:19:54,800
Speaker 1: how you guys bonded and were able to emotionally flush

1431
01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:58,000
Speaker 1: and letters things over the past couple of weeks, Are

1432
01:19:58,080 --> 01:20:01,720
Speaker 1: there any lingering emotional residue from stepping out of that

1433
01:20:01,840 --> 01:20:05,360
Speaker 1: field again to face this team? I would I think

1434
01:20:05,400 --> 01:20:09,200
Speaker 1: if anything it was, the emotional residue would be to

1435
01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:12,400
Speaker 1: just be out there playing football more so than facing

1436
01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:15,879
Speaker 1: a team. You know, these two teams shared an experience

1437
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:18,880
Speaker 1: that no other teams that I've known, you know, in

1438
01:20:18,960 --> 01:20:24,920
Speaker 1: different circumstances. Yes, but I wouldn't say there's any apprehension

1439
01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:29,360
Speaker 1: out there or residual effects. I think just being able

1440
01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:31,240
Speaker 1: to play ball these last few weeks has been good,

1441
01:20:32,800 --> 01:20:34,519
Speaker 1: you know. I think a few guys are still coming

1442
01:20:34,600 --> 01:20:37,360
Speaker 1: down emotionally, like kind of catching up on their rest

1443
01:20:37,439 --> 01:20:41,719
Speaker 1: and stuff. So for me personally, I can only speak

1444
01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:46,840
Speaker 1: for myself. It's subsided a bit. Who knows what how

1445
01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:50,200
Speaker 1: that might manifest itself on game day, But you go

1446
01:20:50,320 --> 01:20:52,439
Speaker 1: with the flow as you do within this game, and

1447
01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:56,360
Speaker 1: you know, it's that's a good question, but I think

1448
01:20:56,400 --> 01:21:00,519
Speaker 1: we're I think we're making the right steps to continue on.

1449
01:21:00,920 --> 01:21:03,880
Speaker 1: How much does it help seeing tomorrow Areva facility and

1450
01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:06,120
Speaker 1: be able to huge and see him to smile at

1451
01:21:06,120 --> 01:21:11,559
Speaker 1: all that accidentially? Yeah, it's it's it's uh, it helps.

1452
01:21:12,280 --> 01:21:16,600
Speaker 1: There's a lot of reprieve in seeing him and just

1453
01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:20,719
Speaker 1: kind of carrying conversations, chewing the fat. You know, he's

1454
01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:23,879
Speaker 1: he seems to be, you know, I think still physically

1455
01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:27,880
Speaker 1: very you know, yeah, tired and kind of coming out,

1456
01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:31,120
Speaker 1: but the guys in great spirits and and that also

1457
01:21:31,160 --> 01:21:34,160
Speaker 1: helps with the recovery process for all of us as well. Sure,

1458
01:21:34,320 --> 01:21:36,720
Speaker 1: Sean had you guys do a walk through today? Um,

1459
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:39,680
Speaker 1: Josh said, it's nice because it's a long season and

1460
01:21:39,760 --> 01:21:42,120
Speaker 1: the fact that for us, you guys just to get

1461
01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:44,439
Speaker 1: the work you need in. How nice is it is

1462
01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:47,639
Speaker 1: a veteran who's just put miles on now this season

1463
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:49,920
Speaker 1: to be able to take some time and just got

1464
01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:51,720
Speaker 1: to get that that type of work in. Yeah, that

1465
01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:56,840
Speaker 1: was huge. Um, you know, the thing is the catch

1466
01:21:56,920 --> 01:21:58,840
Speaker 1: twenty two of it is that you know, he puts

1467
01:21:58,960 --> 01:22:01,360
Speaker 1: the ball in your court to be professionals right now

1468
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:04,479
Speaker 1: you have to get out. You can still get a

1469
01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:07,600
Speaker 1: tremendous amount out of walkthroughs if you apply yourself, and

1470
01:22:07,680 --> 01:22:11,600
Speaker 1: you can still use your technique and put time on

1471
01:22:11,760 --> 01:22:15,640
Speaker 1: task and build muscle memory and still get looks that

1472
01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:18,000
Speaker 1: you might see. So for us, it was just really

1473
01:22:18,080 --> 01:22:21,120
Speaker 1: locking in. You know, we might not physically be putting

1474
01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:23,680
Speaker 1: ourselves through it, but mentally we can go through the

1475
01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:27,320
Speaker 1: gymnastics of what we might see and still be able

1476
01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:32,360
Speaker 1: to do the foundational work physically to get what we

1477
01:22:32,400 --> 01:22:35,439
Speaker 1: need to get done because you just prepared for them

1478
01:22:35,720 --> 01:22:38,400
Speaker 1: three weeks ago May. For you, I mean, do you

1479
01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:42,960
Speaker 1: get drawings for both teams look a little deeper and

1480
01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:50,880
Speaker 1: more detailed than you might either. Yeah. For me, I

1481
01:22:51,040 --> 01:22:53,960
Speaker 1: still feel like I like to start from square one again. Yeah,

1482
01:22:53,960 --> 01:22:56,120
Speaker 1: there is that familiarity. You know, we only had ten

1483
01:22:56,160 --> 01:23:00,560
Speaker 1: plays on offense, maybe eleven and that one drive, so

1484
01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:02,640
Speaker 1: there's not much film to work with with what with

1485
01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:05,400
Speaker 1: what we had. But uh, like you said, they've played

1486
01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:10,120
Speaker 1: want the same team twice. For me, personally, I like

1487
01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:12,800
Speaker 1: to start from the very beginning with some familiarity. There's

1488
01:23:12,840 --> 01:23:14,599
Speaker 1: these sparks of them. You go back to your notes

1489
01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:18,080
Speaker 1: because you keep notebooks and you revisit those to see

1490
01:23:18,120 --> 01:23:20,439
Speaker 1: what kind of keys, and then we'll go through the

1491
01:23:20,800 --> 01:23:22,920
Speaker 1: third downs and all that stuff. So there'll be some

1492
01:23:23,000 --> 01:23:25,799
Speaker 1: familiarity in that part for sure. It'll be a refresher,

1493
01:23:25,920 --> 01:23:29,439
Speaker 1: but um, I'd just like to start from the very

1494
01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:34,240
Speaker 1: beginning again. They're twenty nine sex because that's a pride.

1495
01:23:36,120 --> 01:23:41,200
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, it does. They're, like I said, formidable to

1496
01:23:41,280 --> 01:23:45,679
Speaker 1: say the least. They have some incredible pass rushers, run stoppers.

1497
01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:48,320
Speaker 1: They just they played good defense and I think that

1498
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:54,240
Speaker 1: front seven it can if you let them get going,

1499
01:23:55,160 --> 01:23:57,640
Speaker 1: they can really make a difference. So it'll be a

1500
01:23:57,680 --> 01:24:01,280
Speaker 1: great competitive battle. You you watch the film, the guys

1501
01:24:01,360 --> 01:24:06,320
Speaker 1: play with just a competitive edge and and uh you

1502
01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:08,679
Speaker 1: know you hear playing through the whistles so many times.

1503
01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:12,360
Speaker 1: But these guys really seem to thrive doing that and

1504
01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:15,919
Speaker 1: they get a lot of production by just out competing

1505
01:24:15,960 --> 01:24:18,960
Speaker 1: their opponent. When when you look at this last game,

1506
01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:21,759
Speaker 1: you see seven sacks at JOT, it stands out because

1507
01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:24,360
Speaker 1: I think there's only one game other game the season

1508
01:24:24,400 --> 01:24:27,920
Speaker 1: where he's had five or more as an offensive line group.

1509
01:24:28,200 --> 01:24:30,400
Speaker 1: You know what went into that and is when you

1510
01:24:30,439 --> 01:24:32,559
Speaker 1: see something like that in the meeting, So that where

1511
01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:35,160
Speaker 1: kind of rally around that, like not wanting to happen.

1512
01:24:35,800 --> 01:24:38,759
Speaker 1: You never want to give up sacks, and yes, seven

1513
01:24:38,920 --> 01:24:43,600
Speaker 1: was quite a daunting number. Um, I think we just

1514
01:24:43,720 --> 01:24:47,519
Speaker 1: rally around the fact that we uh, we double down

1515
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:54,880
Speaker 1: on what we know works be very uh you know, intrinsically,

1516
01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:58,479
Speaker 1: look at ourselves, motivate ourselves. Um. We don't need much

1517
01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:02,120
Speaker 1: outside ra road to tell us that we you know,

1518
01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:06,479
Speaker 1: there's definitely room to improve in that department. You know,

1519
01:25:06,600 --> 01:25:08,920
Speaker 1: sometimes sacks is going to happen. It's part of the gig.

1520
01:25:09,720 --> 01:25:12,280
Speaker 1: But you know there's plenty of times in those instances

1521
01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:15,280
Speaker 1: where we could have done better, and we plan on

1522
01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:18,840
Speaker 1: fixing those mistakes and doing better. Josh was already playing

1523
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:21,639
Speaker 1: at such a high caliber coming into this season, through

1524
01:25:21,680 --> 01:25:23,800
Speaker 1: the regular season playoffs. Is there any place that you

1525
01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:26,200
Speaker 1: see him to take a step this year that maybe

1526
01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:27,960
Speaker 1: it's behind the scenes or on the field, just that

1527
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:30,719
Speaker 1: stands out even when he was doing so much already.

1528
01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:34,680
Speaker 1: I think it's consistency. It's always been a thing with him,

1529
01:25:36,520 --> 01:25:40,000
Speaker 1: but he just his consistent work ethic and being able

1530
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:43,840
Speaker 1: to no matter when or lose, come back. Then you

1531
01:25:43,880 --> 01:25:46,840
Speaker 1: know that Wednesday or Tuesday, whenever his game planning week

1532
01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:50,160
Speaker 1: starts for the next opponent, having a clean sate slate

1533
01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:54,400
Speaker 1: with a kind of this fire to be the best

1534
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:57,200
Speaker 1: he can be, and that kind of sets the groundwork

1535
01:25:57,280 --> 01:26:00,920
Speaker 1: for all of us to follow. And he has such

1536
01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:04,320
Speaker 1: a great combination of being this big kid but also

1537
01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:08,479
Speaker 1: a true professional and understands that he holds the weight

1538
01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:13,000
Speaker 1: of a franchise, you know. So I think he's just

1539
01:26:13,120 --> 01:26:17,680
Speaker 1: his consistency throughout the weeks and his ability to, you know,

1540
01:26:17,840 --> 01:26:20,960
Speaker 1: deal with injuries and him just go out there and

1541
01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:24,360
Speaker 1: not show it, be stoic when it's time to time.

1542
01:26:24,520 --> 01:26:27,320
Speaker 1: Is that it's greatest when the pressures at his highest.

1543
01:26:27,400 --> 01:26:30,439
Speaker 1: He seems to be at his commist all right, that's

1544
01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:33,720
Speaker 1: Mitch Morris addressing the media. We have to take a

1545
01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:36,200
Speaker 1: break here. When we come back. Some final thoughts on

1546
01:26:36,360 --> 01:26:38,840
Speaker 1: the tweet sheet here on one Bill's Live presented by

1547
01:26:38,920 --> 01:26:55,120
Speaker 1: Klota Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right, some final

1548
01:26:55,160 --> 01:26:58,200
Speaker 1: thoughts on the tweet sheet in terms of the storyline

1549
01:26:58,400 --> 01:27:03,160
Speaker 1: you're expecting in Bill's Bengals on Sunday, Stephen says, I

1550
01:27:03,240 --> 01:27:05,960
Speaker 1: feel Beasley is starting to gain momentum as well. As Shaquire,

1551
01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:07,920
Speaker 1: I think we should look to see more production out

1552
01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:13,000
Speaker 1: of this area Sunday and as the playoffs proceed. Anything

1553
01:27:13,040 --> 01:27:16,639
Speaker 1: about that Beasley had two catches for thirty something yards.

1554
01:27:16,720 --> 01:27:19,519
Speaker 1: There were twenty eight yards, thirty two yards and a touchdown,

1555
01:27:19,920 --> 01:27:24,519
Speaker 1: and that all couples where I'm at. I think he's

1556
01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:30,599
Speaker 1: needed take some easy ones, you know, certainly not for nothing.

1557
01:27:30,760 --> 01:27:32,559
Speaker 1: The easy ones he thought he was gonna take got

1558
01:27:32,600 --> 01:27:35,080
Speaker 1: tipped out of cold Beasley's arms turned into an interception.

1559
01:27:35,120 --> 01:27:36,840
Speaker 1: So if you're gonna if that's gonna happen, why don't

1560
01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:39,160
Speaker 1: I just throw it deep all the time? Kind of thing? Right? So,

1561
01:27:39,920 --> 01:27:43,240
Speaker 1: but yeah, it takes some easy takes, some easy completions,

1562
01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:50,920
Speaker 1: But I'm not really Yes, those two guys really make

1563
01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:54,080
Speaker 1: it seem like we got some options other than Stefan

1564
01:27:54,200 --> 01:27:57,160
Speaker 1: Diggs and Gabe Davis playing as well as he is

1565
01:27:57,240 --> 01:27:59,920
Speaker 1: is another huge one. So I'm I'm very optimistic about

1566
01:28:00,040 --> 01:28:04,160
Speaker 1: or they're at Offensively, Yeah, Jean says, Kenned Oliver and

1567
01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:07,240
Speaker 1: Greg Russeau be full game disruptors to Burrow. They are

1568
01:28:07,280 --> 01:28:08,960
Speaker 1: the stars on the line, and if they don't get

1569
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:13,200
Speaker 1: to Burrow, Bengals win this game. We already read the stat.

1570
01:28:14,800 --> 01:28:16,599
Speaker 1: You don't. If you don't get Burrow on the ground,

1571
01:28:16,920 --> 01:28:21,320
Speaker 1: it's hard to beat him. Yeah, I guess I'll give

1572
01:28:21,360 --> 01:28:24,840
Speaker 1: it to you again. The stat says he's twenty two

1573
01:28:24,920 --> 01:28:26,960
Speaker 1: and three over the last two years. He's twenty two

1574
01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:32,000
Speaker 1: and three. When he sacked fewer than four times, he's

1575
01:28:32,120 --> 01:28:35,400
Speaker 1: four and eight more than four times. That's a lot

1576
01:28:35,439 --> 01:28:38,240
Speaker 1: of sacks in a game. He was sacked exactly four

1577
01:28:38,320 --> 01:28:42,799
Speaker 1: times last week. Baltimore is right in it, and Baltimore

1578
01:28:42,800 --> 01:28:45,400
Speaker 1: had a chance to win it. One more sack might

1579
01:28:45,439 --> 01:28:47,240
Speaker 1: have been the difference. I don't know. That's it's an

1580
01:28:47,280 --> 01:28:50,599
Speaker 1: interesting stat. But you know, I wonder what the stat

1581
01:28:50,640 --> 01:28:53,720
Speaker 1: says when he's sacked five or more times, you know, right,

1582
01:28:53,840 --> 01:28:58,400
Speaker 1: I mean we know this. Josh Allen got sacked seven

1583
01:28:58,479 --> 01:29:01,720
Speaker 1: times last week and they won. Yeah. So there are

1584
01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:05,240
Speaker 1: exceptions to ever's exceptions to everything. Let's end on a

1585
01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:08,160
Speaker 1: high note. On the tweet sheet, Paul says Bill's defensive

1586
01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:11,679
Speaker 1: secondary shines bright against Bengals in the Division round. Bill's

1587
01:29:11,680 --> 01:29:19,400
Speaker 1: advanced to the AFC Championship Game. Sign me up. Tough

1588
01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:22,080
Speaker 1: group to shine against. But if they do, if they do,

1589
01:29:22,320 --> 01:29:26,479
Speaker 1: you're right, it's It's hard for the Bengals to win

1590
01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:28,720
Speaker 1: if they're outside guys don't contribute in a big way.

1591
01:29:29,080 --> 01:29:33,000
Speaker 1: ESPN's Adam Schefter saying Ken Dorsey will interview with Carolina

1592
01:29:33,080 --> 01:29:35,680
Speaker 1: this weekend for their head coaching job. We're presuming that

1593
01:29:35,760 --> 01:29:40,599
Speaker 1: will take place via Zoom Big Show tomorrow. Eric Eric

1594
01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:44,920
Speaker 1: Mould's NFL UK Neil Reynolds and Nahiem Hines. We'll see

1595
01:29:44,920 --> 01:29:45,240
Speaker 1: you one
