1 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:35,160 Speaker 1: These One Bills Live, presented by called Light of Health. 2 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 1: Here we be on a rain soaked Friday edition of 3 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: One Bills Live. Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you as 4 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: it is pouring raining cats and dogs here on a 5 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: Friday in Western New York. Practice inside today. We'll get 6 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 1: to the practice updates in just a second. Before we 7 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: do that, I want to say Happy Veterans Day to 8 00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: all of our veterans out there for your service to 9 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: our country, including my dad, my uncle, my great uncle, 10 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: my father in law, my wife's uncle. It's just we 11 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: got a long list of military service in our families, 12 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: so just want to recognize them along with all the 13 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: other veterans, for their service and for the sacrifice of 14 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: the families, the family. I think what gets lost sometimes 15 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: and this is Salute to Service Month obviously in the 16 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 1: NFL as well, and that's what me and Steve are 17 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,759 Speaker 1: wearing here today. That was Steve's idea, so kudos to you, Steve. 18 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: I think what gets lost sometimes is everybody respects the 19 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: service of the veterans for obvious reasons, but the sacrifices 20 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: that the families make. Two. You know, you've got family 21 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: members that are running a household on their own, raising 22 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: kids on their own for much of the years that 23 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: their spouses are serving our country. So salute to the 24 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: families that make the sacrifices as well. My father, my 25 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: dad was an Army member, My father in law was 26 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: a Navy fighter pilot, My brother in law was an 27 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: F sixteen pilot. And my oldest brother was eighteen months 28 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: old before he ever laid eyes on his father. Wow, 29 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: because they might they'd gotten married and then you know, 30 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: off to training camp and they all last boot camp 31 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: and then he was gone. And he was eighteen months 32 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: old before he ever or something somewhere around there, before 33 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: he ever saw his own dad. So um, yeah, it's 34 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: a sacrifice for everybody. But and today our military is 35 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: totally voluntary, so it's uh, kudos. Saw those guys were appreciating, 36 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: Thank you for your service. I think I told you that. 37 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: So my dad got drafted for girls. My dad got 38 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: drafted for Vietnam. And at that point in time, there 39 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: were four places you could get stationed Vietnam, Ramstein Air 40 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: Force Base in Germany, the Panama Canal, or Alaska. Because 41 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,119 Speaker 1: they're all worried about the Russian threat. Russians are coming 42 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: over any moment now while we're all focused on Vietnam. 43 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: That's what they were, you know, back then, Cole War 44 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: and you know all that stuff. My dad got stationed 45 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: in Alaska. He was very thankful they didn't have to 46 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: go to jungle warfare in Vietnam. Um. But yeah, so 47 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: he's up there running maneuvers in Fairbanks and god knows 48 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: where else it. I mean, you want to talk getting 49 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: he had arctic gear. Oh yeah, he said it was 50 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: such a he said it was so weird because for 51 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: four months he's doing jungle warfare training in South Carolina, 52 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: you know, going through swamps down there to get ready 53 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 1: for Vietnam, and then all of a sudden he's in 54 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: the snow and he's wearing arctic gear right, doing overnight maneuvers. 55 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: But he was an anchorage, just like your daughter. It 56 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: is a military city. And yeah, kudos to everybody, Thank 57 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: you so much for your service. It's it's it feels 58 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: good to have them guarding us. Oh yeah, unquestionably. So 59 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: Happy Veterans Day to all the veterans, and again, thank 60 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: you for your service. Want to get you some practice updates. 61 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: We know Josh Allen is the major point of concern 62 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: here and during the media viewing portion of practice, Josh 63 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: Allen was not seen out there. Head coach Sean McDermott 64 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: met with the media this morning prior to practice and 65 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: said Josh remains day to day. He was not yet 66 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: ruled out for the game on Sunday this morning and 67 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 1: said they're literally taking it hour by hour as to 68 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: his availability for Sunday. So we'll wait. We're reduced to 69 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: waiting now for what the Friday injury report says. Does 70 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: it declare him out, does it declare him questionable, doubtful? 71 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: Or is he you know, is he's good to go? 72 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: He still has he a spectator what I mean, did 73 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: he do anything? And nobody knows, So we'll see. I mean, yeah, 74 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: and yeah, I mean what are they thinking? And the 75 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: closer against you got to make a call because if 76 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: he's I mean, you got to bring Matt Barkley up right, 77 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: he would have to be a practice squad for that, 78 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: and I imagine that'll happen no matter what. Even if 79 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 1: Josh plays, he'll probably be up right, I mean, they'll 80 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: take well just for safety, right exactly if you have Yeah, 81 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, well we'll have to wait and see what 82 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: the Friday injury report tells us and take it from 83 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: there and other updates with respect to practice. There is 84 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: good news. First of all, there was good news coming 85 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: from the Thursday injury report which came out after we 86 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: went off the air, so let me bring you up 87 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: to speed on that. The good news from the Thursday 88 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: injury report was Spencer Brown went from a limited to 89 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: a full participant on Thursday, so it looks like he's 90 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: finally ready to return to the starting lineup at right tackle. 91 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: That's good news off the ankle injury. He had been 92 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: out of the lineup since Week six when he suffered 93 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: the injury against Kansas City Tremaine Edmonds did not practice 94 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: yesterday or Wednesday. The good news there is he was 95 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: dressed for practice today, so we'll wait and see what 96 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: the Friday injury report tells us about his level of participation. 97 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: But he was participating in practice today and pads on 98 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: the whole thing, so that's good news. Kayer Elam was 99 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: limited in practice on Wednesday, then did not practice at 100 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: all on Friday, and so there so there's or Thursday 101 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: and was not dressed for practice today. So Kayer Elam 102 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: unfortunately going in the wrong direction, and now we're seeing 103 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: reports on Twitter that the media was just allowed in 104 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: after practice ended in the field house today. They were 105 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: practicing indoors because of the rain, and they said that 106 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 1: they saw There are reports that Josh Allen was seen 107 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: running off the field in his practice jersey and Wednesday 108 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: and Thursday while he was out watching practice. He didn't 109 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 1: have his practice jersey on. We'll see if that means 110 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: anything when the injury report comes out. Anyway, getting back 111 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 1: to it, Kayer Elam didn't look like he was going 112 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: to be practicing today, so his availability certainly seems to 113 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: be up in the air. Tredavious White was out there 114 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: and seemingly dressed for practice. Whether he's ready to come 115 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: back or not, we do not know. He is not 116 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: on the injury report because he was activated to the 117 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: fifty three man roster off of reserve pup. He technically 118 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: does not have an injury designation, so he's not on 119 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: the injury report, hasn't been since he's been activated. It's 120 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: just a matter of whether they feel he is ready 121 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: to return from his ACL injury suffered last season. And 122 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: then here are the other good reports from Thursday. Mitch 123 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: Morse went from a limited to a full participant on Thursday, 124 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: so too did David Quessenberry, who was dealing with a 125 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: groin injury. Also, Dane Jackson and Matt Milano went from 126 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: limited to full participants Thursday. So Dane Jackson, Matt Mlano, 127 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: Spencer Brown, Mitch Morse, all trending in the right direction. 128 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: Starters for the Bills trending in the right direction, seemingly 129 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: will be available for the game on Sunday, barring any 130 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: kind of setback in today's practice. Steve, Yeah, they're going 131 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: to be healthier this week, it looks like. But man, 132 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: oh Man, one of the things they have not had 133 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: to deal with in the past two or three years 134 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: as injuries, and now it's been a constant, ongoing battle 135 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: this year. Not not just with God, this is like 136 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: with contributors, starters. They got some problems with injuries this 137 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: year and it's it's hamstrung their abilities right And we 138 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: neglected to mention the two players that coach McDermott declared 139 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: out for Sunday's game, Jordan Poyer and Greg Rousseau. Both 140 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 1: of them declared out for Sunday's game, so they will 141 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: not be available and once again for the fourth time 142 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: this season, the Bill's defense will not have Micah Hide 143 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: or Jordan Poyer at the safety positions. And I think 144 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: it's safe to say, Steve that the defense has looked 145 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: different without those two guys in there. Yeah. I mean, 146 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 1: they've got young guys busting their tail to fill the 147 00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: void there. But I don't think we're we're knocking anybody 148 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: else saying it doesn't look like it does win Poyer 149 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: and Higher out there. No, those are two pretty special players, 150 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: they are, and and but they are still tough to 151 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: score on. Um. I think you're lacking some splash plays, 152 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: which is one of the things that looked like early 153 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: in the season the Bills were going to be back 154 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: in the saddle getting those. Uh. They're still getting some turnovers, 155 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: but you know you need those from a defense. You 156 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: need sacks and you need turnovers is what you need. 157 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: And Uh, without poor Year and Hide, I think there's 158 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 1: that sense that they're just out there trying to, you know, 159 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: do their job, instead of getting out ahead of it 160 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: mentally and saying we're, you know, we're gonna make them 161 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: pay for their mistakes. It's Uh. I think the injuries 162 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: have really played a huge role in the Bills and 163 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: the way they've played football. Um, you know they're still 164 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: getting wins, but yeah, that it the Miami loss, in 165 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: no doubt is because of the injuries and the conditions 166 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: of the day. And you got to feel like if 167 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: when the Bills are healthy, which they're not gonna be 168 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 1: one hundred percent healthy this week, but you feel like 169 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: when they're healthy, they're they're too tough for these teams 170 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: to beat, but they're having a hard time getting there. 171 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: Bill's practice updates are presented by Lee com Lake Erie 172 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: College of Osteopathic Medicine. And I gotta tell you, with 173 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 1: Kayr Elham looking very iffy for Sunday, be a nice 174 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: week to get Tredevious back, even if it's only on 175 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: a part time basis, because if you're down Kaire, you're 176 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 1: down to Dane Jackson, Christian Benford, and then you're after that, 177 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: you know you're looking at Tredevius Saran Neil. I mean 178 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: it's you know, it's Tredevius available first and foremost, and 179 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: if he's not, you're getting a little thin back there. 180 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: You're just flat out are so. I mean, you got 181 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: cam Lewis, who's been a corner, but he's been working 182 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: more at safety through training camp this year and it 183 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: seems like they want to make that a focus for 184 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 1: him going forward. Um, but yeah, you don't have Trudevius 185 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 1: or Kay Kay, you're basically down to Serrand Neil, Christian Benford, 186 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: Dan Jacks Jackson and Taron Johnson. Cam Lewis, I guess, 187 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: is kind of a swing guy between safety and corner, right, 188 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 1: he could go both ways. That. Yeah, you're light there. 189 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: So hopefully Trudevious can be up in some capacity at 190 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: the cornerback position for the Bills this week. It might 191 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: all been off reserve pup going on three weeks now. 192 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: It'll be interesting too to see if and I go 193 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: back and look at it. They've got JaMarcus Ingram a 194 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: cornerback on the practice squad, and they've got Xavier Rhodes 195 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: who's around who Xavier Road has got a lot of experience. 196 00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: He's big, long, right, six one two ten, He's got 197 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: ten years in the league, so he's you know, he's 198 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: he's not young and spry, but he's got a wealth 199 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 1: of experience. Um, So they've got some guys on the 200 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: practice squad. It'll be really It's gonna be really interesting 201 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 1: this week to watch as they get to the deadline 202 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: for the practice squad call ups, because you know, if 203 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: Matt Barkley does not get called up, that's huge news. Yeah, 204 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: because I think we both anticipate he will because of 205 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: the Josh Allen uncertainty. And then if a corner gets 206 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 1: called up, that means Tradevious probably isn't up. That's right, 207 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: knowing Kaier in all likelihood is down. Yeah, so you 208 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,559 Speaker 1: need an extra corner Kaier is not practicing or whatever 209 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: he's yeah. Um, so that's that's gonna be really interesting 210 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: because you can you can anticipate the Bills are gonna 211 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: have to make some moves like that with the Vikings 212 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: coming to town, and then the injury list is what 213 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,439 Speaker 1: it is, right. Uh. This week's game spots here, incidentally 214 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: is Saint Bonaventru University. Saint Bonaventr is an official education 215 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 1: partner of the Buffalo Bills around the NFL we Go 216 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: Here Quickly, which is presented by Kalida Health, the official 217 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 1: healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills, and Deonta form it leads. 218 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: The Panthers passed the division rival Atlanta Falcons twenty five 219 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 1: to fifteen with a one hundred thirty yard rushing day 220 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 1: that included a touchdown. Carolina was committed to running it 221 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 1: on the ground and grinding out of victory, and they did. 222 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: They got some really good running from all their guys, 223 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: including a former Bills player, Rashid blackcame Rahee black Year 224 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: was released from the Bills, had a nice little preseason 225 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: for the Bills, ended up in Carolina, and he made 226 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: a couple of nice runs last night, no question about it, 227 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: and so did the rest of those guys. They've got 228 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: some They've got some guys in the backfield for Carolina, 229 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: and it's no wonder they're a pretty good offensive line too. 230 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: And for that reason, it kind of really makes a 231 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: lot of sense. Given now they won this game last night. 232 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: It's easy to say, but trading a fifteen million dollars 233 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: a year running back or ten million dollars a year 234 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: running back in Christian McCaffrey makes a lot of financial 235 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 1: sense for them with the production or gaining from the 236 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: guys they've got. You know, in this offseason they'll invest 237 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 1: some use the draft capital they got in the McCaffrey 238 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: trade to try to rebuild the roster with a new 239 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: head coach going forward. Steve Wilkes is the interim head 240 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: coach right now, and we'll see if he gets the 241 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: opportunity to keep that job or whether they'll, you know, 242 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: seek a new hire on a permanent basis. But nice 243 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: win for the Panthers last night over their division rival Falcons. 244 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: So that is that the Raiders injury list continues to 245 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: get longer. Steve mentioned on yesterday's show how Darren Waller, 246 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: the tight end, was put on injured reserve. So too 247 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 1: was their slot receiver hunter Renfron. I mean that team 248 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: is folding like a house of cards right now, having 249 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: a monumental problem. Not to mention the fact that Blake 250 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: Marquee has retired. Just up and retire in the middle 251 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: of the seat. I'm not hanging around for this mess 252 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: that they you want to talk about bursting into flames 253 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: and starting to nose dive, that's what they're doing. I mean, 254 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: they had some high hopes in Vegas for the way 255 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: their season might go. Of course, I had a new 256 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: head coach in Josh McDaniels. You'd like to think maybe 257 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: it was going to go differently for him than it 258 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: did in Denver, apparently not. You've got a guy like 259 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: Derek Carr, who is sitting there and you know it 260 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: was today. I mean, he's you're looking at if they 261 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: if they release him by June one, they saved thirty 262 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: million dollars on their cap next year. If they're gonna 263 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: start rebuilding, you know, do you think they blow it 264 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: up and draft a quarterback there? You want to just 265 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: release Derek Carring get nothing. He's had six different head 266 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: coaches in nine years. I know he's a talented player. 267 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any debate about that. He just 268 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: hasn't been in a stable situation for his entire career. 269 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: It's a mess. It's a mess, and you don't let 270 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: Josh McDaniel continue you. Yeah, but if you're well, I'm 271 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: not saying that, Josh McDaniels, you know whatever, do whatever 272 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: you want with him. My point is, if you're gonna 273 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: totally blow the thing up and rebuild, I don't think 274 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: you just released Derek Carr. Don't you trade him somewhere. 275 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: I know you're on the hook for big money. But 276 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 1: the Eagles did. The Eagles did it with Carson Wentz 277 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: took on a huge cap hit and look what they 278 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: did there ain't no, they got a quarterback. Here's the difference. 279 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: If they release him, they save thirty million dollars. Yeah, 280 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: if they can trade him, it's the same thing. Well, 281 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: well I think he would take it in the last 282 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: year of his contract. I don't know, but well, either way, 283 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: my point is, if I have the ability to get 284 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: a first round pick for Derek Carr, and I'm not 285 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: sure you could, but if you can, even if you 286 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: can get a second round draft choice, if you're if 287 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: you're blowing this thing up and rebuilding, you gotta get 288 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: as much draft capital as you can find. Sure, not 289 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: only for cheap labor, but for quality talent in the 290 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: first three rounds of the draft. Yeah, and you think 291 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:06,719 Speaker 1: about it, would you rather you let you could let 292 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 1: him go, or if you could if you can find 293 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: a trade partner. Obviously you do that, and he's thirty two. 294 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: But if you're gonna trade him, and you're gonna and 295 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: you're gonna get a thirty million dollar cap re leaf 296 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 1: by cutting him before June one, I mean, wouldn't you 297 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: like dangle him in front of a team like Carolina? Yeah, 298 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: I think you would. Right, there's a host of other teams. 299 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 1: They're gonna be a new head coach out there, there's 300 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: gonna be people around. I mean, that's yeah. He'll be 301 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: thirty two next season, and he's got three years left 302 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: on his contract. Now, they have the out this year, 303 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: and it would be like a five point six in 304 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: dead cap. That's it to get out of the contract, 305 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: that's nothing. I would try to trade him, I really 306 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 1: would now, and then tell the people that are interested 307 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: in acquiring him, Hey, renegotiate the contract with Derek. Derek, 308 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: you want to come play for us? Sure, okay, let's 309 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: redo your deal and spread it out, spread it out, 310 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 1: but guarantee a ton of cash. Because his cap hits. 311 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 1: His cap hit next year is thirty four million. That's 312 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: not terrible. Oh not in this day and age. If 313 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: for a thirty two year old quarterback who can still play, 314 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: maybe stomach the contract this year and spread him out 315 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: over that, you know, spread that money out in the 316 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: last two years where it gets a little silly forty 317 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: three million in the last two years, spread that out. 318 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 1: But some team might with a lot of cap space, 319 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: might be like, bring it on. Yeah, you might be 320 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 1: able to find a couple of suitors. For that kind 321 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: of money. That's not ridiculous quarterback money, and if you 322 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: don't have one right now, you're probably willing to pay it. Yeah. 323 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: A team like Carolina, a team like Indianapolis, a team 324 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,639 Speaker 1: like Tampa Bay if Tom Brady goes away, a team 325 00:18:54,640 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: like New Orleans. I mean there's a ton of them. Tennessee, 326 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 1: for goodness sake, Yeah, Tennessee would take him, I think 327 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 1: in a second, man, don't you think? Now their money 328 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: gets a little tricky. Although they can rid themselves at 329 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: the Tannehill contract after this year with minimal cap hit, 330 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: as I understand it, you're still paying Henry a boat 331 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 1: about What about the New York Football Jets depends on 332 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 1: how they feel about Zach Wilson at the end of 333 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 1: the year. But yeah, that's a possibility out there's a 334 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 1: lot of teams, Yes, there's a lot of teams. They'll 335 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 1: find somebody. I think they could trade him, I really do, 336 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,719 Speaker 1: And it would behoove them to do that if they 337 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: are truly blowing it up and rebuilding from the ground 338 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 1: about the Rams. They got the money could do it 339 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,199 Speaker 1: with the Rams too. Yeah, there there's going to be 340 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: a multitude of options for the raiders to move him. 341 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: We have to take a break here, but when we 342 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 1: come back, joining us for his regular Friday segment is 343 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,959 Speaker 1: Bill Safety Micah Hyde.

This first 383 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: one comes from Cole and he says, can you ask 384 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,479 Speaker 1: Micah to rave about Matt Milano? I believe they got 385 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 1: to Buffalo in twenty seventeen together, and I feel like 386 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: Matt doesn't get talked enough nationwide. I feel like he's 387 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 1: a line behind some pretty big superstars on the team. 388 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: So this guy just kind of wants some Matt Milano 389 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: love here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, why don't we do this? 390 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: Why don't because I mean, you've talked about Matt before, 391 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: you respect him as a teammate. It's baffles me that 392 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: he's never been to a Pro Bowl. Um, what can 393 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 1: you maybe tell us about Matt's game that maybe we 394 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: don't normally see that you with a trained eye for 395 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 1: football and film study see in his game that maybe 396 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 1: the rest of us don't see. Yeah, well, I I 397 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 1: Telano all the time. I feel like he's the best 398 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: backer in the league. Um, and he's up there with 399 00:22:58,080 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 1: the best. I don't I don't see how he's not 400 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 1: getting recognition he deserves. And and you know, speaking to him, um, 401 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: you know he can literally do it all. He can blitz, 402 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 1: he can cover, he can tackle, he can catch. I 403 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 1: mean he can he can do it all. So UM, 404 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,360 Speaker 1: to see a lino go out there and be successful, 405 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,679 Speaker 1: especially this season and and in years past. Um, it's 406 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: a wonderful thing. And you know I see him as 407 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: he's I don't think he's behind anybody on this defense. 408 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: You know, those the superstars that you know that Cole 409 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: just asked about. He's he's one of the best players 410 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: on this on this team and on his defense. We 411 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,360 Speaker 1: always tend to give him this this label of being 412 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:36,199 Speaker 1: a really instinctive player where you know he just sees it. Um, 413 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: give your serious how would you define that? Just as 414 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 1: a guy who kind of seems out ahead of everything mentally, Well, 415 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 1: I think that the the biggest and most honorable things 416 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: someone can say about my game is I'm just a 417 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:55,159 Speaker 1: football player. I'm instinctive. I react, Um, I just make plays. 418 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: I'm smart. And that's a line like that's that's him 419 00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 1: to a T and a linebackers. But he's a former safety, 420 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: but in a linebacker's body. Um, he just is he. 421 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: You know he he has a new coach on Bobby 422 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: Baptists this year. Um, and you know Bobby is very detailed. 423 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: So so I feel like Lana was getting those nuggets 424 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 1: each and every day, um in the meeting room, and 425 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: he's going out there and showing he's able to do 426 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: on Sundays. So this is a nickname I had not 427 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: heard before. Lano. Is that what we're calling him? Like him? 428 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 1: Shorten it out tomorrow might be something different. I called Lano. 429 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: I call him Lonnie, I call him money Okay, yeah, 430 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: maddie boy, I call him anything. You know, it's just 431 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: whatever whatever I feel like called him that day. I 432 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: know he's a quiet, Yeah, he's a quiet. He's not 433 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: though he's not because whatever you like, the dog comes 434 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 1: to any name. Yeah, no, yeah, yeah, Lano is um. 435 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: Other than Isaiah McKenzie, which we all know about. Little 436 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: dirty Lano might be the biggest junk talker within the 437 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: on the field or just within within the locker room. 438 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: Oh yeah. He always has something to say and and 439 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: if something happens, if something happens and you know, say 440 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: I I make a wrong call or something and walk 441 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: through or something, he'll he'll study. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 442 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: I'll put I'll put Matt Mlano's business out there because 443 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: he needs to straight started being hell accountable. Yea, how 444 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 1: much does it come up that because I'm curious about 445 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: this because you mentioned that he was, you know, former 446 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: safety at Boston College. How much does that come up 447 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 1: like hey, like you know, like for example, when you 448 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: said I didn't make the right call, yeah, He's like, hey, 449 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: I was a safety. I know what you're supposed to 450 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 1: be doing back there. Yeah. Does he throw that at you? No, 451 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: I don't think it's nothing like that. Um. I just 452 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: think that he understands, you know, if he has a 453 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 1: one on one matchup with the tight end, like he's 454 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: a former safety, and and when you're a safety in 455 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: your matchup with the tight end, doesn't matter who it is, 456 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: you feel like you had the advantage, you know, one 457 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: on one. And so I think that's how that's how 458 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: Malano thinks. Nick has the second question, what can we 459 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 1: do when teams start using the Jets strategy by trying 460 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: to get the ball out of their quarterback's hands so 461 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: quickly that our d line doesn't have time to be 462 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 1: a fan? That's a very good question. Um, I would say, 463 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: you know, obviously, we we feel like our front fours 464 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: is the best in the league, and um, you know, 465 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: we put a lot on them to get after the 466 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,400 Speaker 1: quarterback with the ball. If the quarterbacks getting the ball 467 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 1: out quick. Um. You know, obviously us in the back 468 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: end have to uh put put some pressure on the 469 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 1: on the receivers or on the tight ends, whatever it 470 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 1: may be, on the skill positions, and at the same 471 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 1: time defense line get their hands up tip balls. We 472 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: got one against Aaron Rodgers. Jordan Phillips tipped it up 473 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 1: or um and line caught it. So um. But I 474 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: think that the ultimately like you can you can nickel 475 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: and dime us all the way down the field. But 476 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: I think that the best part about our defense and 477 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: what we've been doing since Johns in seventeen is is 478 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 1: you know, not giving up big plays and whenever that 479 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: offense makes a mistake, capitalize on it and take the 480 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 1: ball away. And if you force field goals, especially with 481 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 1: the offense that we have, we're gonna win most ball games. Yeah. 482 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: One of the things about it is in the league today, 483 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: it used to be back and the way back, and 484 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: then even before my time, it's like you gotta run 485 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,639 Speaker 1: it and you gotta stop the run. Nowadays it's like 486 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 1: you gotta get after the pastor and you gotta create 487 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: turnal and you scheme that way, right, I mean, And 488 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 1: it's a. It's a conversation that's ongoing and get give 489 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: us some insights to you know, you're you know how 490 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: the guys in the back end of the defense say, listen, 491 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:10,959 Speaker 1: if this happens, this happens, we can get one right 492 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 1: here kind of thing that those conversations. Yeah, so we 493 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: talk all the time. Um, you know, especially in this league, 494 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 1: like what you said, like offenses are we feel, um, 495 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,400 Speaker 1: you know, aren't necessarily patient enough to just go five 496 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: yards and go five yards all the way down the field. 497 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 1: They're gonna they're gonna play action, they're gonna try to 498 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:27,880 Speaker 1: take a shot. And when they take a shot, that's 499 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: what we're sitting on. That's when we say, okay, you know, 500 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 1: you try to take a get a big play on us. Um, 501 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 1: you know us in the back end, and you know, 502 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna, you know, try to get a 503 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 1: takeaway from it. So, um, you know, we just feel 504 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: like within our defense, within our scheme, we just don't 505 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 1: give up big plays and when offenses trying to do 506 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: that against us, that's when we take them all away. 507 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: So let me ask you this. You're doing film study 508 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 1: all week and you might feel like you've got a 509 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: hunch about something like, Man, I keep seeing that, and 510 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 1: it seems like there are opportunities for defenders when the 511 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: offense does this or there's this kind of a play call. 512 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,959 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins has only six interceptions this season, but all 513 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: six are on downfield throws. So I'm sure that's something 514 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: that maybe pop out to you know, guys like you, 515 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: when you're watching the film during the week, do you 516 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: go back to the numbers and check. It's almost like 517 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: you use it as a cross reference point. Do you 518 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,360 Speaker 1: guys use numbers like that? All six of his picks 519 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: downfield throws this year? We talk about numbers. There's so 520 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: many numbers. They get bounced around every week in meetings, um, 521 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 1: And you know that's obviously what the coaches do. The 522 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 1: coaches breaking down a lot of the film and they 523 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: give us the probability and the percentages and all that 524 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 1: type of stuff. And you know there's a there's a 525 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 1: lasting joke within our defensive room like I'm the type 526 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: of guy if it ain't one hundred percent, I don't 527 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,440 Speaker 1: want to hear it, Like I I need high tendency stuff. 528 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to hear sixty percent stuff. 529 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear it. What about that one? 530 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: All six of his interceptions are on down love throws. 531 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: I love it. That just means when he's taking shots 532 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: down the field, obviously has good has you know he 533 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: has good good guys on the outside the Yeah, goog 534 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: get the ball. But yeah, I also have some some 535 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: some opportunity to make some place for ucause Cousin seems 536 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: like a very buy the book quarterback. There's not a 537 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 1: lot of improvisation to his game. This is the call. 538 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: I'm running the call, three steps, bang balls coming out 539 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: or whatever. But the one guy that he will put 540 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 1: it up for is Jefferson, and I understand why, Like 541 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: he's gonna give him chances to make plays. There's more 542 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: fifty fifty balls to him than really anybody else on 543 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: their team. Yeah, what does that do for you guys 544 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,719 Speaker 1: as a defense, because you know he's gonna be targeted heavily. 545 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: But if you can plaster you're probably have a chance 546 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 1: to make a play. Yeah. Well, I think comes to things. 547 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 1: We know that Kirk Cousins when he's when he's playing well, 548 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,479 Speaker 1: he's playing well. When he's not getting pressure on him, 549 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: he's he's able to make some throws and die love 550 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 1: and be one of the one of the very good 551 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the league. But when he there's pressure on him, 552 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: he's forcing throws. You know, Like we just mentioned to Jefferson, 553 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 1: we know that as a defense, we always have to 554 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: know where he's at any given time. It doesn't matter 555 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 1: if he's lined up in the backfield, he goes out wide, 556 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: he's a single receiver. He so the three you know, 557 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: to the three set doesn't matter. He always have to 558 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: know where he's at um and you know, hopefully there's 559 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: rare occurrences where he's just one on one. Hopefully you 560 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: know there's a safety over top or and so when 561 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: Kirk Cusins makes those mistakes, you go get it. Because 562 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: that's how Washington got a pick in the end zone 563 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: last he throws a jump ball to him on a 564 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: corner route. Corner tips it the other guy. So we 565 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: got we're talking about justin Jefferson. But one of the questions, 566 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: this next question from Chris to you, Mike, is who's 567 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: the most dangerous offensive player you've watched on film this 568 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: season so far? And one the most dangerous I guess 569 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: it could be Josh. I'm at this week. Pretty good. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 570 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: I would say Jefferson is definitely at the top. UM 571 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: just what he's able to do. He's can catch any ball. UM, 572 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: He's catch radius is huge, UM, fast break tackles, all 573 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 1: that type of stuff. I'm going with him, my I mean, 574 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: obviously I'm not watching him every week on film. But 575 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: Josh Allen is a different beast. Josh Allen is is 576 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: somebody that, UM, you cannot account for on every single play, 577 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: Like he's gonna he can you know, if you try 578 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 1: to sit back, UM and and you know, let he can. 579 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: He can get out there and run the ball, he 580 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: can throw the ball, he can do it all. So 581 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: I would say Josh Allen being the best UM offensive 582 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: player in the league. The thing is, and I've seen 583 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: it happen. We saw it. It started happening a lot 584 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty when you guys, you know, all of 585 00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: a sudden, you guys took a huge step forward. Right. 586 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 1: You'd see like Vic Fangio and Denver when he's a 587 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: head coach and called them defensive plays. You saw it 588 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: with Robert saw when he was in San Francisco, he 589 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: went out there. You'd see these defensive coordinators on the 590 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:14,719 Speaker 1: sidelines just they'd call the perfect defense with a free rusher, 591 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 1: the whole thing. They got it, They got him, and 592 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: it turns into a touchdown against him, They're like, how 593 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 1: can you do it? Because Josh just kind of overcomes 594 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: with He's a big, huge mistake eraser exactly. That's a 595 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: real problem for defensive coordinators because he turns a catastrophe 596 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: into a touchdown. He does. And I was I was 597 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: in Green Bay for four years, so I saw it. 598 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: I feel like I saw Anon Rodgers in his prime, 599 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 1: and that's exactly what he did. Defenses were called the 600 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: perfect play, and it was just, you know, he'd scramble 601 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: around or he'd run for twenty yards to get a 602 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: first down, and it was just always something he was 603 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 1: doing to push this, you know, to run the score 604 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 1: or you know, push the stick. So that's Josh Allen 605 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: right now. Man. I just loved it. I'm thankful I'm 606 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: on this team and I'm able to watch, you know, 607 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm off for this season, but I'm 608 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: I'm on, you know, sideline and front row seat to 609 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: watch him play. Robert with the next question for you, Mica, 610 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: who was your favorite team or player growing up, favorite 611 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: team or player growing for those that don't know. For story, Ohio, Yes, yes, 612 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: where Mica grew up, which is what is that middle 613 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: southern It's northwest Ohio. Actually closest to Detroit, oh It 614 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 1: is Detroit than Cleveland and Cincinnati. Cincinnati's about three and 615 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: a half or whatever from the house, so you know, 616 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: we were surrounded by Indianapolis, you know, three hours or whatever. 617 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 1: So there was a few teams in our area. Um, 618 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: where I grew up. Ten minutes away was Ben Roethlisberger 619 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: and thirty minutes away was Charles Woodson. So I was 620 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: I was a big Charles Woodson fan. As far as team, 621 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: you know, the Browns weren't too good, Detroit wasn't too good, 622 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: Cincinnati wasn't too good. So I kind of just wrote 623 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: with the players and I'd say, I'd say, I'd say, Charles. 624 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 1: What about Was there like a what about besides football? 625 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: Was there a team like baseball? Basketball, any kind of 626 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: team you gravitated the tribe? The tribe Okay, I guess 627 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: now the Guardians, right, Okay, yeah, yeah, they had some 628 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: they had some good squads when yeah, you know, oh yeah, 629 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: back in the day, the Jim Tomy, Albert, the Albert Bell, 630 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 1: the Kenny lofton the Roberto Yeah, Roberto Alamar and his 631 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: and his brother Sandy Alamar. Yeah, this is there some 632 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 1: good teams. Yea, yea, all right, that's cool. Uh jt 633 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: asks who is the fastest player on offense and fastest 634 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: player on defense, and then he wants to know the 635 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 1: strongest player on the team. And then I'll get to 636 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: some of his other questions because he's got like five here, 637 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: wow wow, fastest player offense and okay, defense, and then 638 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: the strongest player on the team, fastest play on offense. 639 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 1: I'm going off GPS. Is that we that we run? Yeah, 640 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 1: in practice and then in uh in the games. I 641 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: think Taiwan technically is up there. You know, he's a gunner. 642 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: He's on kickoff, he's running down there. He's man. Even 643 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: at thirty four, still get a chance, you get a 644 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,719 Speaker 1: chance to open it up. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, if, 645 00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 1: for example, if I'm have the highest GPS, that's not 646 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: a good thing. You know, that means I'm chasing somebody. 647 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: It's not a good thing. Um. Defensively, the same thing. 648 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 1: Surran is always up there because special teams are running 649 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 1: down this gunner and kick off a chance to build up. Yeah, 650 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:12,840 Speaker 1: you get a chance to build up. He has you know, 651 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: forty fifty yards to get going. Uh. And then the 652 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 1: strongest person on the team, who, Man, there's a lot 653 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: of there's a lot of guys on the team that 654 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 1: I mean, what do we what do football players in 655 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: the locker room use most as the benchmark for who's 656 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,800 Speaker 1: the strongest? Are we talking up squad guy or a 657 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 1: bench guy like that? What determines true strength? I don't. 658 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 1: I don't like that's a hard question to answer. I 659 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 1: really don't know. Like I would say, there's a you know, 660 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 1: a bunch of offensive linement defensive linement that can just 661 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 1: throw a weight around. So I can't. I I'm not 662 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: in there to know who's the strongest um pound for pound. 663 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 1: You got guys like Ed that is just you know, 664 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 1: he might not put up the most weight, but he's 665 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: just explosive um. And you know guys like that or 666 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: are fun to watch lift. Yeah. And I mean last year, 667 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 1: I remember when Dion came back from his second batt COVID. 668 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,360 Speaker 1: He comes back out on the field. We had we 669 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: had a clip on our show and we were talking 670 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 1: about Dion or something, and it was one of those 671 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 1: field level views which I love. From the end zone 672 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: and he's coming out on a kickout and his linebackers coming. 673 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: He's got a be line on the running back and 674 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 1: Dion literally throws him out of the camera shot and 675 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 1: he's over on the sideline somewhere on his back is 676 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 1: a Deon's a beast. Like even when you like, even 677 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: when you give him a five or something like, it 678 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:28,839 Speaker 1: just it hurts your hand. His hand feels like it's 679 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:30,879 Speaker 1: like fifty he got meat hooks. Yeah, it's just it's 680 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: just it's just thick, you know. And so uh yeah, 681 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: De doc Is is probably one of those guys too 682 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: that just naturally you can just and then Big Phil 683 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 1: would seem like a naturally another Jordan Phillips, like just 684 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: a naturally strong guy like you you picture him like 685 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: throwing bails a hey up on top of them. Yeah, yeah, 686 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, just like it's nothing. I 687 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 1: would allow love to use him. Back in the day 688 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 1: when I was working on so who who wins a 689 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,800 Speaker 1: chicken wing econ contest? Yeah, I'm having the other question, 690 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 1: same thange, I mean, same thing like it's just a 691 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 1: ton of guys that are Yeah, there's a ton of 692 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 1: guys that are in it, and a ton of guys. 693 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: I would say the number if I had to put 694 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: a number on it, UM probably into the fifties, sixties, 695 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 1: fifty six, yeah, sixty wings. You know who I like 696 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 1: in one of those? I like Spencer Brown in one 697 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: of them. Spence Yeah, yeah, Yeah, he looks like a 698 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 1: guy that can put it. Give him you give him 699 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: some if a few beers on the side and some wings.

Yeah yeah. And 702 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 1: then JT finally says get healthy, stay healthy, go Bills, 703 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,040 Speaker 1: appreciate you. So that's cool. Um. So those are just 704 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 1: a few questions fired off for Micah. And you know, 705 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:42,399 Speaker 1: I look at this game and you see a seven 706 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,799 Speaker 1: and one football team in the vikings, and you can't 707 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: knock them for who's on the schedule. They got to 708 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 1: play who they have to play. UM one win though 709 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,280 Speaker 1: against a team with a winning record of their seven victories, 710 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: And again, can't knock him for who's on their schedule. 711 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: They don't make their schedule, does that I know, you 712 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: guys in the locker room and the coach all week 713 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 1: is like, you know what I mean, there's none of 714 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,839 Speaker 1: that complacency crap. But I gotta believe there's a little 715 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: bit of human nature. They're like we could take these guys. 716 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,239 Speaker 1: Come on, like, you know what I mean, Like I 717 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 1: feel like there's some of that, you know, locker room 718 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,840 Speaker 1: conversations like all right, they're a good team, but like 719 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: they're not unbeatable. Come on, like, well, I think that 720 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 1: this year our mentality is totally different from years past. 721 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 1: Each and every game we're we're going into it to 722 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,240 Speaker 1: win it. I mean, I know we've always we've always 723 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:28,839 Speaker 1: said that, you know, day one of ot as we're 724 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:30,880 Speaker 1: talking about winning a super Bowl back in two eighteen, 725 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 1: and obviously you know you saw the result of what 726 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: the season was. But this year we mean that. So 727 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: any any week that you know, anytime we step on 728 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: that football field, we're there to win. So you know, 729 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: this is another opportunity for us. Obviously you know I 730 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 1: had a little hiccup last week. Um, but this is 731 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: the NFL. Like you can't get too how, you can't 732 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 1: get too low. You know, you gotta bounce back. You know, 733 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 1: we started watching more film on Um Disappoinent, which is 734 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 1: the vikings on Monday, and then from there you just 735 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 1: try to build up throughout the weekend and get a good, 736 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 1: good idea of what they're gonna do going into the game. So, um, 737 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:00,839 Speaker 1: we're excited team right now, and you know, we gotta 738 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,320 Speaker 1: get that sour taste out of our mouth. So what 739 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 1: better way to do it than it gets the seven 740 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: and one ball club? And even today, you know, nobody 741 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: knows whether Josh You're gonna play or whatever, but you know, 742 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 1: Case Kingdom's getting ready like he always does, give us 743 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 1: an idea. And I made this point because I had 744 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 1: to do it during my career as well. You're it 745 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 1: feels kind of good to rally around the guy, the backup, 746 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It kind of feels like, 747 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: let's go, yeah, you know, let's show him. Well, it's 748 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 1: kind of fun to be in that mindset. Oh. I 749 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,320 Speaker 1: think it's cool for a Case because I've seen, you know, 750 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,879 Speaker 1: when you're a backup quarterback, obviously somebody like Josh Allen, 751 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 1: you know, you're not competing for the starting job, and 752 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: Josh is just going out there throwing touchdown's left in right. 753 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 1: And then when something like this happens, you know, Case 754 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 1: steps in and I saw his I'm in the song 755 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,760 Speaker 1: with him the other day, and I saw his mentality shift, 756 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: you know, like he's not he's he's not joking as 757 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 1: much this week, and you know obviously it's it's locked in. 758 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 1: He's locked in. So it's cool to see because you know, 759 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 1: with the backup quarterbacks and even like anybody that's as 760 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 1: it plays a backup role, which I used to be 761 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: there when someone goes out, you know, your mentality just shifts, 762 00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,399 Speaker 1: and you know, like you gotta step in. You gotta 763 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: play your role, and you got to, you know, try 764 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,960 Speaker 1: to help offense, defense, bush teams, whatever it may be. So, 765 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,719 Speaker 1: um you know, we have one hundred trust in in 766 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:08,919 Speaker 1: Case and what he's been the league a long time 767 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 1: and what he's been able to do. So um here 768 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: has a bunch of weapons around him, so all he 769 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 1: has does is be himself. I heard you may know this, 770 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,240 Speaker 1: but I heard Sal talking about this this morning earlier. 771 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: Case Keenum is the most prolific college passer in n 772 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 1: nineteen thousand passing yards nobody he played a history of 773 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 1: the game, He played five years, but nobody in the 774 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: history of the game through from more yards than case 775 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: Keenum did in college. But even if you take that's impressive, right, 776 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 1: I don't. If I was in him, i'd be I'd 777 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: have a time, right. They had some crazy offenses back 778 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:43,239 Speaker 1: then Hawaii with Mouse Davis and then he was at Houston, Hey, 779 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 1: and they were throwing the ball. Those teams were throwing 780 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 1: the ball all over the place. Yeah, I mean, it's 781 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 1: it's obviously a different type of touchdown. Um you mentioned, 782 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 1: you know, just going out and expecting to win in 783 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 1: the mindset and all of that. I think for fans 784 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 1: on a week to week basis, they grip when they 785 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: look at the standings because it's a race. Now. You 786 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 1: guys are at the top of it right now, and 787 00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:14,919 Speaker 1: thankfully you have critical conference wins over Tennessee, Kansas City, 788 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: and Baltimore, who are all division leaders, respectively along with 789 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 1: you guys. But they see and two in the division 790 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 1: and fans are like, oh my god. But it's like, 791 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: you got four division games left, three of them are 792 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 1: at home, so there's plenty of ground. Do you guys 793 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: like this playoff picture stuff? I gotta imagine you guys 794 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,399 Speaker 1: got tunnel vision. Your head's down and you're just worried 795 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,280 Speaker 1: about the next game. You're not even looking at this stuff. 796 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 1: Just focus on the next game and then pick your 797 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:41,320 Speaker 1: head up at the end of the season kind of 798 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: thing and see where you're at. Is that kind of 799 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 1: what it is. That's one thousand percent what it is. 800 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 1: And it's if you get caught up in all the 801 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:48,839 Speaker 1: playoff picture. You know, I think it's what week ten 802 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, if you get caught up in all that, 803 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 1: it's just going to be a disaster down the road. 804 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 1: Like you really have to focus. And I think the 805 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:57,320 Speaker 1: best players in this league are able to just focus 806 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,320 Speaker 1: on the task in front of them, Like we have 807 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 1: the Vikings this week. This is what they do. You 808 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 1: don't worry about uh And And I can honestly say, 809 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 1: like earlier in my career, I was I was a 810 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:07,720 Speaker 1: little bit liked that. I would I would look ahead. 811 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: I would you know, my buddies are coming next week 812 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: to next next week's home game, or you know Thanksgiving 813 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,719 Speaker 1: game is going to be crazier. You know, we played 814 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 1: the day before Christmas and we got to travel to Chicago. 815 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 1: You know, all this type of stuff that just runs 816 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: through your mind. And and I've realized that, you know, 817 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 1: obviously being the league a long time and the best 818 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 1: guys in this league, the most elite players, just focus 819 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:28,800 Speaker 1: on the day. What do you have to do today 820 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 1: to get better? And you know, we can't live in 821 00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 1: the outside world of being up and down. You know, 822 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 1: we lost last week, we got to dread about it, 823 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 1: and you gotta go out here this week and it's 824 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: a must win all that, and like we don't think 825 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:39,879 Speaker 1: like that, Like it's totally different. We try to get 826 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,239 Speaker 1: better each day and um, you know, come Sunday, be 827 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 1: playing your best. I've made the point a couple of 828 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,800 Speaker 1: times over the years that it's easier for players and 829 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 1: coaches and guys, for you guys to put that behind 830 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:50,440 Speaker 1: you because you got you got the Vikings this week. 831 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 1: You can't think about the Jets now you got We're 832 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 1: getting ready for these guys fans and they're out there 833 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:58,359 Speaker 1: stewing about Zach Wilson and stuff. You know, we can't 834 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 1: they can't get it out of their minds because they ain't. 835 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 1: They don't they're not working actively, working towards the next one. Well, 836 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,040 Speaker 1: the thing is like, okay, so for example, for me, 837 00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,319 Speaker 1: like this is year ten and whatever, how many games 838 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:11,360 Speaker 1: that's been. But like you literally have to after the 839 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,759 Speaker 1: game's over, you shut it down and you think about 840 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: the next thing. So like, you know, even even my 841 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: wife might get a little frustrated with me every now 842 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 1: and then because she wants to talk about something and 843 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: we resolve it the next day, and then I'm done 844 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 1: thinking about it. You know, That's just the way my 845 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,759 Speaker 1: mind works. I just I'm onto the next the next task, 846 00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 1: and um, you know I want to try to be, 847 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 1: you know, a better player after that. I guess. Yeah. 848 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 1: Cool stuff. Man. All right, Well, look, thanks for seeing 849 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: hopping in.

You can't beat Yeah, I mean 903 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 1: that's a big diversion. If you make wings every week 904 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,280 Speaker 1: and then you don't, what do you think is gonna happen. 905 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,719 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna I'm gonna give Hot in Arizona break here. 906 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 1: As big a fan as you are Hot in Arizona, 907 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: you don't carry that much influence on the outcome of 908 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 1: the game. Don't beat yourself up for not making wings 909 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,439 Speaker 1: last week. It's your fault. If you feel better about 910 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:29,560 Speaker 1: making them this week and believe it will enhance their 911 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 1: chances by all means, go for it.

Josh on the Tailgate Friday tweet, 914 00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 1: Cheet says, I'm cooking up an elbow for Poyer and 915 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:51,399 Speaker 1: an elbow for Alan. Are we talking about elbow noodles here? 916 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:54,879 Speaker 1: Like in mac and Cheese? Yeah? Or yeah, or mac 917 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:56,840 Speaker 1: salen or such a thing as a pig elbow or 918 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 1: something like that. Oh is there? I don't know, I'm asking. 919 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 1: I don't Pigs don't even have elbows, well technically, but 920 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 1: they don't call them elbows. It's called a thing. I 921 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,279 Speaker 1: don't know what is it called. I don't know. They 922 00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 1: don't even have arms. They can't have elbows. How do 923 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 1: pigs have elbows? They don't have elbow? It depends on 924 00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 1: what that thing right behind their shoulder, the top of 925 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 1: their above there was it a hock above their like 926 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 1: ham hocks. Isn't a hammo? Is it just below the elbow? Now? 927 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:34,880 Speaker 1: Hold on a second. So pigs four legs? Do they 928 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:37,719 Speaker 1: have a forward bending knee? The I know the back 929 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 1: legs have a backward bending it's the bottom of the 930 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:42,719 Speaker 1: above the hoof. They have a back It goes like 931 00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 1: it's more like bog goes backwards. It's like a human knee. 932 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:50,799 Speaker 1: It bends the same way. Yeah, But although I don't 933 00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:53,279 Speaker 1: think it's like a human knee at the bottom, well, no, 934 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 1: probably is because they don't go like. It's not like 935 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,080 Speaker 1: your wrist where you can go round and around. It 936 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 1: only goes one direction. Yeah, it's like it's like a 937 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:06,799 Speaker 1: human would be the knee, not an elbow, but because 938 00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,160 Speaker 1: it's a leg, it would be more like, yeah, okay, 939 00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,040 Speaker 1: that would be a knee, not a wrist. I did 940 00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:15,840 Speaker 1: say a risk. You're arguing elbow, well, not an elbow. 941 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 1: All I was asking was is there anything that's called 942 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,879 Speaker 1: like an elbow pasta. Here's the problem. Steve likes pig 943 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,560 Speaker 1: so much he was he was trying to turn a 944 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 1: pasta comment into a pig is the pinnacle of the 945 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:30,279 Speaker 1: met It is at the top of the pyramid. I 946 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:33,680 Speaker 1: do not debate that. So second, yes, we will agree 947 00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 1: on that.

That's a run game. Color baby, 1018 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,520 Speaker 1: what you're expecting this week? See if Case Keenum is 1019 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:06,799 Speaker 1: in fact the start, maybe yeah, why don't why don't 1020 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:10,320 Speaker 1: we begin with you know, the Bills, Greg, You know 1021 00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:13,320 Speaker 1: what Josh Allen Skill said is obviously, you know, we 1022 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:16,800 Speaker 1: know if Case Keenum has to start on Sunday that 1023 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:20,520 Speaker 1: while the play calls are all going to be the 1024 00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 1: same in terms of terminology, what Ken Dorsey is going 1025 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 1: to be calling for Case Keenum figures to be in 1026 00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:31,439 Speaker 1: stark contrast to that of Josh Allen, Right, I would 1027 00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,520 Speaker 1: say to some degree. I mean, Brownie, there's a lot 1028 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:37,440 Speaker 1: of quick game rhythm throws in the Bill's offense, right, 1029 00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:41,360 Speaker 1: and that's you know, Keenham can do that without question. 1030 00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:45,160 Speaker 1: Most quarterbacks can m you know, obviously there's certain things 1031 00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:47,800 Speaker 1: that they would not call, and there's certain plays that 1032 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:51,000 Speaker 1: Josh Allen will make that obviously very few guys in 1033 00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:53,960 Speaker 1: the league can make. So certainly Keenham cannot make them. 1034 00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:56,880 Speaker 1: But a couple of couple of thoughts, you know, Keenom's 1035 00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:59,520 Speaker 1: played in this league and he's been efficient. You know, 1036 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 1: he had the season when they lost to the Eagles 1037 00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:04,520 Speaker 1: in the NFC Championship Game, the year the Eagles won 1038 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:06,960 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl where he was pretty much the starter 1039 00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:10,800 Speaker 1: and played well. He's not immobile, He's not a statue. 1040 00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:14,400 Speaker 1: He just obviously, again I'm not saying anything profound, doesn't 1041 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:18,160 Speaker 1: have the skill set of Josh if you do, if any, 1042 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:22,359 Speaker 1: But I think in terms of calling the game, I'm 1043 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 1: really curious to see what they do, as as I'm 1044 00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 1: sure you guys are. If in fact, you know Case 1045 00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:31,920 Speaker 1: Keenum would be the starter, you know, I guess the 1046 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 1: big question would be would they perhaps increase the run 1047 00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:39,560 Speaker 1: game volume. I don't know the answer to that. We'll see, 1048 00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:43,520 Speaker 1: but I don't think they would dramatically change, Like they're 1049 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:46,239 Speaker 1: not going to change the concepts in the past game. 1050 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:49,440 Speaker 1: It's just a matter of what you call it. Is 1051 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,799 Speaker 1: there nothing in the passing game of the Bills. Say, 1052 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:56,799 Speaker 1: for instance, Greg, you would call the exact same play 1053 00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:59,680 Speaker 1: for Case Keenum, but he would just have the ability 1054 00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,520 Speaker 1: to make different choices within that concept. He would take 1055 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:04,840 Speaker 1: the check down, he would take the underneath stuff. He 1056 00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 1: would look the safeties off for the deep route. They'd 1057 00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:09,759 Speaker 1: have to honor it because they got guys running out 1058 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:11,880 Speaker 1: there and he could just take an easier throw. Is 1059 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:13,360 Speaker 1: there some of that that's going to go on or 1060 00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:17,239 Speaker 1: is that predominantly what they would do? Yeah, I mean, 1061 00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 1: obviously Josh being a you know, an aggressive thrower and 1062 00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 1: capable of big time throws down the field. Keenom's not 1063 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:28,800 Speaker 1: capable of that. But like you said, Steve, it doesn't 1064 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 1: mean you can't call the same routes because you know, 1065 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:34,839 Speaker 1: unless you're calling, you know, a true shot play where 1066 00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 1: there's just let's say two vertical type routes, most of 1067 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:39,840 Speaker 1: the time you're going to have a shorter throw involved 1068 00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:42,640 Speaker 1: in a route concept. So you can call some of 1069 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,440 Speaker 1: the same things, you know, I think I think it 1070 00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:48,799 Speaker 1: because Josh is so physically gifted and can obviously throw 1071 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 1: the ball deep down the field. I mean that throw 1072 00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:53,400 Speaker 1: he made after the injury, you know, that may have 1073 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:55,120 Speaker 1: been the best throw of the season. It would just 1074 00:55:55,160 --> 00:56:00,720 Speaker 1: happening to being complete, you know. But you know, obviously 1075 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:03,840 Speaker 1: case Keenum can't do that. But I still think you 1076 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,560 Speaker 1: can run you know, kind of an efficient passing game, 1077 00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 1: which is kind of what the Bills have evolved and 1078 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 1: morphed into for the most part. Anyway, let's talk a 1079 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 1: little bit about that Vikings defense. That the Bill's offense 1080 00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:20,680 Speaker 1: will be facing pretty good in terms of pressure rate 1081 00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:24,319 Speaker 1: only rushing four. That's not to say they won't splitz occasionally. 1082 00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:29,799 Speaker 1: But Zadarius Smith and Daniel Hunter. I think Daniel Hunter 1083 00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 1: is finally getting a feel for their new three four 1084 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:37,000 Speaker 1: front and Zadarius Smith is wholly familiar with that. But 1085 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:40,399 Speaker 1: last three games, Greg, these guys have combined for eight 1086 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:44,239 Speaker 1: sacks and sixteen quarterback hits. And if you watch last 1087 00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:47,759 Speaker 1: week's game against Washington, I mean they were collapsing the 1088 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 1: pocket with alarming regularity. Well, this is Ed donatell and 1089 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:55,800 Speaker 1: Ed donatell is from the vic fan Joe school, So 1090 00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: you're seeing a lot of split safety coverage. You see 1091 00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:04,560 Speaker 1: form and pressures, and they have really good length up front. 1092 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 1: You mentioned two, I would add DJ want him to 1093 00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:10,920 Speaker 1: that mix. He's another long, athletic pass rusher, and as 1094 00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:14,480 Speaker 1: you know, they move people around quite a bit. So 1095 00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 1: you end up with Zadarius Smith lining up as a 1096 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 1: stand up zero technique head up over the center. You 1097 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:24,040 Speaker 1: see him lining up over guards, you see the same 1098 00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 1: with Hunter at times, you see the same with one 1099 00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 1: of them. Even Patrick Jones, the second year player from 1100 00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 1: the University of Pittsburgh, will do that at times. And 1101 00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:36,160 Speaker 1: they've got two veteran linebackers and Hicks and Kendricks who 1102 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:40,800 Speaker 1: are very smart, savvy players. And then they've got Harrison Smith, 1103 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:45,000 Speaker 1: another veteran safety. So you know, this is a this 1104 00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 1: is a defense with good people. You call it more 1105 00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 1: of an execution defense than a highly scheme defense, although 1106 00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 1: as I said, they do have multiple front alignments. That's 1107 00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:58,880 Speaker 1: probably where the scheming comes into play more. But they're 1108 00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 1: not a high percentage pressure defense in terms of sending 1109 00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 1: five or six rushers. They do when they go into 1110 00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 1: the secondary. They've got Cameron Danzler and Patrick Peterson, and 1111 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:14,920 Speaker 1: they've got some guys back there. Certainly Peterson is a 1112 00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:17,200 Speaker 1: little bit past his prime, is still an e lead athlete, 1113 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:19,680 Speaker 1: or at least was at one point. How does their 1114 00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:25,040 Speaker 1: secondary compliment their front, Well, if you're going to play 1115 00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 1: a lot of zone, which they play more zone than man, 1116 00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:32,120 Speaker 1: although it's not a static zone because it's from the 1117 00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:35,000 Speaker 1: VIC Fanjoe school, where you know what you see pre 1118 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:37,640 Speaker 1: snap is not often what you get after the snap. 1119 00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:39,160 Speaker 1: So I don't want to make it seem like, hey, 1120 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:41,360 Speaker 1: they just line up in basic zone and it's easy. 1121 00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:44,320 Speaker 1: But I think when you play the way they do, 1122 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,720 Speaker 1: you're a lying on your pass rush, and they've been 1123 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 1: able to get pass rush with four. That's the critical 1124 00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:52,480 Speaker 1: piece because it's a numbers game. If you can rush 1125 00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 1: with four UF seven and coverage, and you can do 1126 00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 1: a lot of things on your back end with sort 1127 00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:01,640 Speaker 1: of hybrid zone man looks, matchup, Prince supples as you know, Steve, 1128 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:03,640 Speaker 1: you can do a lot of things with seven. You 1129 00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:05,880 Speaker 1: start having to rush five, then you have six, and 1130 00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 1: it changes the numbers dynamic. But all this is a 1131 00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,040 Speaker 1: numbers game. If they you can play coverage with seven, 1132 00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:14,520 Speaker 1: you really have a lot of options, and they've been 1133 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:19,000 Speaker 1: mostly able to do that. Flipping it around to their offense, 1134 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:23,480 Speaker 1: you know, Kirk Cousins has been efficient, if not spectacular. 1135 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 1: I'm interested in some of the numbers that have come 1136 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:30,840 Speaker 1: out of his play this year. Chief among them all 1137 00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 1: six of his interceptions coming on downfield throws. I realize 1138 00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:39,280 Speaker 1: that he's very much buy the book quarterback. You know, 1139 00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:41,840 Speaker 1: whatever the play is, he's going to execute the play 1140 00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 1: with very little improvisation. It seems like the only guy 1141 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,840 Speaker 1: he gives extra chances to our jeff is Jefferson, and 1142 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 1: with good reason. But he gets victimized last week on 1143 00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:53,920 Speaker 1: a downfield throw into the end zone corner route to 1144 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:57,120 Speaker 1: Jefferson kind of puts up a fifty fifty ball and 1145 00:59:57,280 --> 00:59:59,840 Speaker 1: it gets picked. What do we do we pull anything 1146 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,080 Speaker 1: away from that? Is there enough of a sample size 1147 01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:06,960 Speaker 1: with six picks all on downfield throws with him? I mean, 1148 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:11,200 Speaker 1: I'm not sure exactly what that means, Brownie. You know, 1149 01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 1: I think you nailed it though in describing what he is. 1150 01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:17,560 Speaker 1: I think this is an offense that's still trying to 1151 01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:20,720 Speaker 1: get its sea legs with the new head coach, Kevin O'Connell, 1152 01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:23,400 Speaker 1: and obviously he put in a new scheme. You know, 1153 01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:25,760 Speaker 1: a year ago, the Vikings were one of the heaviest 1154 01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:30,680 Speaker 1: percentage wise team that played with a fullback. Now they 1155 01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:33,840 Speaker 1: are among the league leaders in eleven personnel because that's 1156 01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 1: where Kevin O'Connell's background is with the Rams. So this 1157 01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 1: is an eleven personnel offense. I have to tell you, 1158 01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:43,120 Speaker 1: I think one of the most overlooked trades at the 1159 01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:46,520 Speaker 1: trading deadline was t J Hockinson, because I think T. J. 1160 01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 1: Hockinson from a talent standpoint, is a top three or 1161 01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:52,439 Speaker 1: four tight end in this league. And I remember doing 1162 01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 1: him coming out of Iowa, and I did not have 1163 01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:58,840 Speaker 1: anything typed in my weakness column. You know, I think 1164 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:02,200 Speaker 1: this guy is a really, really good player. For whatever reason, 1165 01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:05,160 Speaker 1: it didn't work out in Detroit in terms of volume targets. 1166 01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 1: But he comes in last week has nine targets and 1167 01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:11,040 Speaker 1: nine catches, and I think he's going to become their 1168 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:15,480 Speaker 1: number two target receiver behind Jefferson. He's really gifted. He's 1169 01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:19,680 Speaker 1: a really good athlete, and he's a really good inline 1170 01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 1: blocker as well. And we know that the offense primarily 1171 01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:26,840 Speaker 1: starts with Dalvin Cook in the run game, right, and 1172 01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:30,680 Speaker 1: if this Viking offense, I mean, we've talked about Kirk 1173 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:33,440 Speaker 1: Cousins about how he's a little bit of a and 1174 01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:36,600 Speaker 1: this is why he's been successful too. He understands the 1175 01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:39,320 Speaker 1: offense and runs it. Yeah, and it's always designed to 1176 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:42,680 Speaker 1: be successful. And the guy he rarely goes off script. 1177 01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 1: And even in the touchdown he had last week, he 1178 01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:46,680 Speaker 1: went to his third option in the back of the 1179 01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:49,640 Speaker 1: end zone, looked right, looked back left, then came and 1180 01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:53,320 Speaker 1: caught them tight end across the middle. Just almost robotic 1181 01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:56,240 Speaker 1: in his ability to hang in there, go through his 1182 01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:59,840 Speaker 1: progressions and then make the right read. How does this offense, 1183 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:03,680 Speaker 1: in his balance of run pass play into his ability 1184 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:06,960 Speaker 1: just to stay within the lines. Yeah, I mean he's 1185 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:08,840 Speaker 1: the kind of quarterback now, Steve, if you know that, 1186 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 1: a lot of people say is kind of becoming a 1187 01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:13,360 Speaker 1: little bit of a dinosaur in the league, that he's 1188 01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:15,560 Speaker 1: not the guy you want. You know, let's say if 1189 01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:20,360 Speaker 1: you're drafting a quarterback, because he's he's your pure executor 1190 01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 1: and ball distributor. That's exactly what Kirk Cousins is. You know, 1191 01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:26,600 Speaker 1: the offense has to work, he knows where to go 1192 01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:30,240 Speaker 1: with the ball. He'll stand and deliver. As you said, 1193 01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:33,000 Speaker 1: he's not really going to make second reaction plays. He 1194 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:35,240 Speaker 1: does that once in a great while, but that's not 1195 01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:38,760 Speaker 1: his game. So he's kind of, you know, an old 1196 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:41,720 Speaker 1: school executor and ball distributor. But they have a lot 1197 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:46,440 Speaker 1: of weapons, and you know, the key obviously is pressure. 1198 01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 1: If you can get pressure on him, then you can 1199 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:52,400 Speaker 1: obviously make him play a little faster. And you know 1200 01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:55,200 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that are pocket players, you know, they don't want 1201 01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:58,800 Speaker 1: to play that way. Obviously, he doesn't necessarily move within 1202 01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:01,800 Speaker 1: the pocket grade either. He's kind of a guy that it, 1203 01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:04,520 Speaker 1: he sees it, he reads it, he knows where to 1204 01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:07,520 Speaker 1: go with the ball. He's your classic case of he 1205 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:09,880 Speaker 1: throws it to the right receiver at the right time, 1206 01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:12,160 Speaker 1: with the right kind of throw. That's exactly what Kirk 1207 01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:15,960 Speaker 1: Cousins is, all right. So now justin Jefferson, obviously, is 1208 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:18,680 Speaker 1: you know, concern number one in the passing game from 1209 01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:23,200 Speaker 1: Bill's defense, How have most of the opponents played him? 1210 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:25,680 Speaker 1: Have they gone bracket coverage with him and then just 1211 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:30,240 Speaker 1: worry about everybody else in matchup ways? Or has it 1212 01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:32,400 Speaker 1: been a mixed bag through the course of the first 1213 01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:35,720 Speaker 1: eight games. Is there is there a blueprint for Jefferson? 1214 01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:38,360 Speaker 1: I guess is what I'm asking. No, And there's never 1215 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:42,200 Speaker 1: a blueprint for great players, you know, because otherwise everybody 1216 01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:44,120 Speaker 1: would do the same thing and they'd stop him. So 1217 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not I've never been Browning a blueprint guy, 1218 01:03:47,640 --> 01:03:51,360 Speaker 1: because there's always games where great players get shut down 1219 01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:53,240 Speaker 1: and people think that, oh, that's what you have to 1220 01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:55,520 Speaker 1: do every single week, and it never quite works that way. 1221 01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:59,440 Speaker 1: He lines up both inside and outside. They move him around. 1222 01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:02,560 Speaker 1: Are there are times people bracket him? Absolutely? Are there 1223 01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:05,560 Speaker 1: times they double him? Sure, but they move him around 1224 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:08,160 Speaker 1: as we're seeing right here. You know, it's not that 1225 01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 1: easy just to say we're gonna do this on every play. Plus, 1226 01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:14,360 Speaker 1: you know, they have a pretty multiple offense in terms 1227 01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:17,160 Speaker 1: of their concepts, so there's other good players. You know, 1228 01:04:17,280 --> 01:04:19,560 Speaker 1: Theeland is not exactly what he was three or four 1229 01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:22,040 Speaker 1: years ago, but he's a pretty good player. And now, 1230 01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:26,120 Speaker 1: and by the way, their third receiver Osborne, you guys 1231 01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:28,080 Speaker 1: may remember him because he started at the University of 1232 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:30,920 Speaker 1: Buffalo before his last year at the University of Miami. 1233 01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:34,600 Speaker 1: He's a pretty good receiver too. He's a really good three. 1234 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:38,560 Speaker 1: His target share will probably drop because of Hockinson, but 1235 01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 1: he is not a bad receiver at all. And now 1236 01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:44,520 Speaker 1: you add Hockinson to the mix, Brownie, there's not you 1237 01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:47,000 Speaker 1: can't just say, okay, let's just take away Jefferson and 1238 01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:50,640 Speaker 1: we shut everybody down. Let's talk about the guys up front, 1239 01:04:50,720 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. They're gonna go in. Rousseau is probably 1240 01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:55,400 Speaker 1: is out, has been ruled out of this game. You 1241 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:58,280 Speaker 1: got Von Miller, and it's gonna be either Shack Lawson 1242 01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:03,560 Speaker 1: or a Japanessa one of those the usual suspects, you know, 1243 01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:06,360 Speaker 1: kind of matchup do a matchup analysis of their offensive 1244 01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:08,920 Speaker 1: line against the pass rush of the Bills. I like 1245 01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:11,040 Speaker 1: their old line. I think it's a young group that's 1246 01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:14,920 Speaker 1: only going to ascend. When Darasau came out last year, 1247 01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:17,000 Speaker 1: I thought he was one of the best left tackle 1248 01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:19,440 Speaker 1: prospects in the draft. In fact, I didn't think there 1249 01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:22,360 Speaker 1: was a significant difference between him and Penny Sewell, so 1250 01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:25,360 Speaker 1: you know, and I think he's played well based on 1251 01:05:25,480 --> 01:05:28,480 Speaker 1: my tape, it's a young group. They start the rookie 1252 01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:32,080 Speaker 1: from LSU, another player I really liked this year on 1253 01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:35,360 Speaker 1: tape at Ingram. He's had his ups and downs, for sure, 1254 01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:37,400 Speaker 1: but I think he's going to be a good player. 1255 01:05:38,320 --> 01:05:40,920 Speaker 1: Cleveland is a young player as well. He's the other guard. 1256 01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:43,760 Speaker 1: And then they got O'Neill at tackle, the right tackle, 1257 01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:46,240 Speaker 1: and he's a solid veteran. I think the weak link 1258 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:48,560 Speaker 1: is at center. Um. I don't think he's a really 1259 01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 1: good player, you know, I wouldn't say he's a step 1260 01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:54,120 Speaker 1: but I think that's the weak link. But I think 1261 01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:56,680 Speaker 1: this is an old line that is getting better and better. Steve, 1262 01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:58,959 Speaker 1: and I think I think it's a pretty solid group. 1263 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:02,440 Speaker 1: What do we I mean, what do we make of 1264 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:08,800 Speaker 1: the Vikings ability to win six consecutive one score games. 1265 01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:11,200 Speaker 1: I mean, it just seems like they're getting the plays 1266 01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:15,280 Speaker 1: when they absolutely have to have them. But then you 1267 01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 1: watch some of these games, Greg, and it's like, well, 1268 01:06:18,160 --> 01:06:21,520 Speaker 1: where the heck was that the first three quarters? Like, 1269 01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:24,200 Speaker 1: I mean, the Washington game is a perfect example. You know, 1270 01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,160 Speaker 1: they come out for the first drive, march right down 1271 01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:28,240 Speaker 1: the field, touchdown, then they punt the ball like the 1272 01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:31,200 Speaker 1: next five times in a row, and then rally at 1273 01:06:31,240 --> 01:06:32,920 Speaker 1: the end of the game. Can you put your finger 1274 01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:35,160 Speaker 1: on what it is? Because there seemed to be these 1275 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:37,680 Speaker 1: long lulls in play from them, and it's like, oh, 1276 01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:39,640 Speaker 1: all right, let's finish the game, and then they do. 1277 01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:44,080 Speaker 1: The short answer to your question would be, no, I 1278 01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:48,640 Speaker 1: can't put my finger on. If I try too, i'd 1279 01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:53,040 Speaker 1: be lying. You know, I really don't know the answer 1280 01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:55,840 Speaker 1: to that, other than the fact that I think that 1281 01:06:56,040 --> 01:07:00,280 Speaker 1: they're still, as I said earlier, still working through having 1282 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:02,720 Speaker 1: a feel for Kevin O'Connell's offense. And when you're working 1283 01:07:02,760 --> 01:07:05,720 Speaker 1: through a no offense, the tendency is you have stretches 1284 01:07:05,760 --> 01:07:08,480 Speaker 1: where the execution just isn't there. And also the one 1285 01:07:08,520 --> 01:07:11,120 Speaker 1: thing I would say, I don't think their run game 1286 01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:14,800 Speaker 1: has been quite as consistent as they would like. I 1287 01:07:14,880 --> 01:07:17,800 Speaker 1: think Dalvin Cook is a terrific back, but with the 1288 01:07:17,880 --> 01:07:22,080 Speaker 1: exception of a few runs, it hasn't quite been I 1289 01:07:22,160 --> 01:07:25,080 Speaker 1: think what they want from a sustaining basis. You know, 1290 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 1: that's the thing. You know, when Cook is is going well, sure, 1291 01:07:28,360 --> 01:07:31,080 Speaker 1: is he capable of breaking a sixty yard touchdown, absolutely, 1292 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:33,240 Speaker 1: But I think when he's going well, he's such a 1293 01:07:33,640 --> 01:07:37,400 Speaker 1: high velocity runner that he gets seven eight yards and 1294 01:07:37,560 --> 01:07:40,200 Speaker 1: that changes the whole dynamic of your offense when it's 1295 01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:43,760 Speaker 1: second and two versus second and nine. Yeah, it seems 1296 01:07:43,800 --> 01:07:45,800 Speaker 1: as though, and I'm with you, the numbers, they look 1297 01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 1: like they can run it pretty well. And even when 1298 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:49,200 Speaker 1: you look at Dalvin Cook, one hundred and thirty one 1299 01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:53,000 Speaker 1: carries six hundred and eight yards. But it's a little spotty, 1300 01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:55,160 Speaker 1: you know, a little bit of a roller coaster. Sometimes 1301 01:07:55,200 --> 01:07:59,880 Speaker 1: it looks like really like bland and then other times 1302 01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:02,200 Speaker 1: like he snapped off a big run this last week. 1303 01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:05,640 Speaker 1: So um, you're it's it's feast or fam And I 1304 01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:08,480 Speaker 1: guess is a better way to describe it. Yeah, but 1305 01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:11,240 Speaker 1: he's a really really good back. I mean, you know, 1306 01:08:11,360 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 1: he's he's I've always used the term with him velocity. 1307 01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:17,400 Speaker 1: He's a velocity runner. You know, it's predominantly zoned. And 1308 01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:20,560 Speaker 1: when he can see something, when he can see the 1309 01:08:21,120 --> 01:08:23,880 Speaker 1: cracker or the hole at the first level, he gets 1310 01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:27,719 Speaker 1: through that in a hurry with speed. And he's he's 1311 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,680 Speaker 1: kind of physical. Even though he's not a big big man, 1312 01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,639 Speaker 1: he's not small. He's probably two ten, so he's not tiny, 1313 01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:37,200 Speaker 1: but you know, he runs hard. Uh and and he's 1314 01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:39,320 Speaker 1: a tough guy to bring down because of that speed 1315 01:08:39,360 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 1: in velocity. All right, So greg um just kind of 1316 01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:47,840 Speaker 1: looking at the division race, the conference race here in 1317 01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:51,680 Speaker 1: the AFC. It is tightly packed, as you know, Um 1318 01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,479 Speaker 1: the bills, you know, you say, oh, it's an NFC opponent. 1319 01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:58,960 Speaker 1: You know, if you can't have Josh this week, it's 1320 01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:01,120 Speaker 1: not catastrophic if you lose it, because it's not a 1321 01:09:01,240 --> 01:09:06,920 Speaker 1: conference loss per se. But this thing's getting tight here. 1322 01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:10,600 Speaker 1: I'm kind of anticipating a little bit of topsy Turvynus 1323 01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:13,759 Speaker 1: over the next few weeks because it is so tightly packed. 1324 01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:16,920 Speaker 1: One loss, one win. I mean, for example, if the 1325 01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:19,640 Speaker 1: Bills can't pull this game out this week and the 1326 01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:22,280 Speaker 1: Jets are Miami win, Buffalo goes from the one seed 1327 01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:24,920 Speaker 1: to the five seed in a hurry. Yeah, I know, 1328 01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:27,240 Speaker 1: I mean last week's loss was a tough one for 1329 01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:30,840 Speaker 1: that reason. You know, there's a lot of football to 1330 01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:33,639 Speaker 1: be played. Obviously, the big question is, Josh, they'll keep 1331 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:36,800 Speaker 1: it close to the vest. You know, it is the 1332 01:09:36,920 --> 01:09:39,439 Speaker 1: kind of injury where it can be a long term 1333 01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:41,840 Speaker 1: injury too, So we just don't know at this point. 1334 01:09:42,280 --> 01:09:44,240 Speaker 1: You know, and look, you're in the building, but you 1335 01:09:44,360 --> 01:09:46,920 Speaker 1: know how Sean is, He's he's not the kind of 1336 01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:50,479 Speaker 1: guy that just is overly transparent about this kind of stuff. 1337 01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:53,679 Speaker 1: So we really don't know. But you know, we hope 1338 01:09:53,680 --> 01:09:55,920 Speaker 1: if he does miss this week that it's one game 1339 01:09:55,960 --> 01:09:57,680 Speaker 1: and he can come back the next week. But you're 1340 01:09:57,760 --> 01:10:00,280 Speaker 1: right about that, Brownie. I mean, you know, it's the 1341 01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:02,720 Speaker 1: AFC is very, very good. There's there's a lot of 1342 01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:06,040 Speaker 1: teams that can beat you in any given week, and 1343 01:10:06,280 --> 01:10:09,160 Speaker 1: we saw that with the Bills in the Jets. Yeah, 1344 01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:11,240 Speaker 1: and we've been talking about it all week about there's 1345 01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:14,120 Speaker 1: nine teams that have five wins or more and nobody's 1346 01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:17,800 Speaker 1: got more than six. Yeah, and the AFC, so it's 1347 01:10:18,360 --> 01:10:21,160 Speaker 1: it's a horse race and there's it's gonna be hard, 1348 01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:23,920 Speaker 1: it's gonna come down. I think for the first time 1349 01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:26,120 Speaker 1: in a long time, it looks like it's gonna come 1350 01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:28,000 Speaker 1: down to a number of tie breakers. They may have 1351 01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:30,760 Speaker 1: to go deeper than they've gone in recent in recent 1352 01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:36,000 Speaker 1: memory to get that last seven five six seven seed. Yeah, 1353 01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:38,120 Speaker 1: I'll leave that to the people that know that stuff. Well. 1354 01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:39,600 Speaker 1: It's funny, Steve, when we get to the end of 1355 01:10:39,640 --> 01:10:41,479 Speaker 1: the year and people ask me about that stuff, I 1356 01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:43,240 Speaker 1: just say, I just wait till they tell me. I 1357 01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:45,640 Speaker 1: never try to figure that stuff out. Well, and the 1358 01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:48,439 Speaker 1: problem is we've got two teams the AFC that got 1359 01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:51,600 Speaker 1: to have a tie and that is right. That is 1360 01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:55,519 Speaker 1: Oh my guys, that is an absolute wrench in the works. 1361 01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:57,920 Speaker 1: Last thing, real quick, Greg, that I wanted to mention 1362 01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:01,919 Speaker 1: that I forgot to ask you about the Minnesota defense 1363 01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:05,320 Speaker 1: last in the league in red zone touchdown efficiency. They're 1364 01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:08,400 Speaker 1: giving up touchdowns in their red zone at almost eighty 1365 01:11:08,479 --> 01:11:12,640 Speaker 1: percent clip now. They've allowed the fewest red zone possessions 1366 01:11:13,040 --> 01:11:15,320 Speaker 1: to their opponent in the league, so they're not getting 1367 01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:19,280 Speaker 1: down there often, but when they do, they're giving up yardage. 1368 01:11:19,640 --> 01:11:22,639 Speaker 1: And I mean they're allowing teams to run down there 1369 01:11:23,240 --> 01:11:25,719 Speaker 1: at a rate of three point seven eight yards per carry. 1370 01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:29,479 Speaker 1: That's a full yard over the league average. They probably 1371 01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:32,599 Speaker 1: are not going to have Dalvin Tomlinson again this week. 1372 01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:37,719 Speaker 1: Who's got a calf injury? I guess whether it's whether 1373 01:11:37,800 --> 01:11:40,160 Speaker 1: it's Keenum or whether it's Alan. Can the Bills make 1374 01:11:40,240 --> 01:11:42,599 Speaker 1: some hay down there if they can get inside the money. 1375 01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:46,920 Speaker 1: They've struggled the Bills with their red zone offense for 1376 01:11:47,080 --> 01:11:50,680 Speaker 1: basically two years now, so you know, when they're not 1377 01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:53,320 Speaker 1: a team that normally lines up and tries to bang 1378 01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:55,400 Speaker 1: it in, you know, it's when they get into the 1379 01:11:55,439 --> 01:11:58,360 Speaker 1: red zone. So i'd be it brings us back to 1380 01:11:58,439 --> 01:12:01,080 Speaker 1: our initial thoughts here about what the Bills. What's the 1381 01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:03,599 Speaker 1: Bills offense going to look like? If it's case Keenum, 1382 01:12:04,120 --> 01:12:06,200 Speaker 1: is there going to be more volume in the run game? 1383 01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:09,240 Speaker 1: Are they going to try to play that way knowing that, hey, 1384 01:12:09,360 --> 01:12:12,000 Speaker 1: maybe they can't put up thirty this week against a 1385 01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:15,479 Speaker 1: really solid defense overall? You know, is this the kind 1386 01:12:15,520 --> 01:12:17,559 Speaker 1: of game that you have to play a little more 1387 01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:20,880 Speaker 1: old school brownie? You know, try to I don't want 1388 01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:23,200 Speaker 1: to say, you know, eat clock, but I mean, you know, 1389 01:12:23,400 --> 01:12:26,760 Speaker 1: try to have a more balanced offense. You know, James 1390 01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:29,160 Speaker 1: Cook seemingly has been getting a few more snaps, you 1391 01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:31,680 Speaker 1: know in recent weeks. Is this a week where he 1392 01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:33,639 Speaker 1: gets you know a few more snaps in the run game, 1393 01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:36,439 Speaker 1: you know, because he does bring more explosiveness to the 1394 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:40,160 Speaker 1: table than Singletary, right, And it's also we're now that 1395 01:12:40,240 --> 01:12:43,720 Speaker 1: he's been acclimated Naheim Hines. Maybe an option as well. 1396 01:12:43,800 --> 01:12:46,840 Speaker 1: Both those guys, both those guys have breakaway speed and 1397 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:51,520 Speaker 1: that changes the equation. Certainly, they're more explosive than Singletary. 1398 01:12:52,360 --> 01:12:55,840 Speaker 1: And we've seen it right from the get go when 1399 01:12:55,960 --> 01:12:58,600 Speaker 1: nahem Hinz showed up. That guy can run routes like 1400 01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:01,040 Speaker 1: a chant y'all. He's so he's are really I mean, 1401 01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:03,320 Speaker 1: they've got two backs who are really good receivers. Now 1402 01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:07,840 Speaker 1: when Heinzen Cook, right, So maybe in with a quarterback 1403 01:13:08,240 --> 01:13:11,800 Speaker 1: that has the skill set of Case Keenum, maybe it 1404 01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:14,759 Speaker 1: take that out of the Maybe you take that offensive 1405 01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:16,439 Speaker 1: or that aspect of your offense out of the rapper 1406 01:13:16,479 --> 01:13:20,040 Speaker 1: and use it. Yeah, I mean, you know, my sense 1407 01:13:20,200 --> 01:13:23,599 Speaker 1: is with Case there's probably a little more scheming involved 1408 01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:25,719 Speaker 1: in the sense that you're going to try to define 1409 01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:28,840 Speaker 1: reads and throws for him, whereas with Josh, not that 1410 01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:30,800 Speaker 1: you don't want to do that, but you kind of 1411 01:13:30,880 --> 01:13:34,200 Speaker 1: know that he can make some throws that others can't. Right, 1412 01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:37,080 Speaker 1: all right, Greig, thanks for chopping it up with us. 1413 01:13:37,120 --> 01:13:38,920 Speaker 1: We appreciate it. We'll catch up with you next week. 1414 01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:41,599 Speaker 1: All right, guys, appreciate it. Thanks so much. You look 1415 01:13:41,600 --> 01:13:45,639 Speaker 1: good in that sweatshirt. That senior producer from NFL Films, 1416 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:49,000 Speaker 1: Greg Cosal, wearing his red Bill sweatshirt this week that 1417 01:13:49,080 --> 01:13:51,760 Speaker 1: we sent to him because I was wearing one. He's like, hey, 1418 01:13:51,800 --> 01:13:54,240 Speaker 1: I like that. Can I get one of those? All right, Well, 1419 01:13:54,360 --> 01:13:57,280 Speaker 1: we can accommodate you to help us out every week. 1420 01:13:57,360 --> 01:13:59,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, better wearing it now. He's got to wear 1421 01:14:00,120 --> 01:14:01,479 Speaker 1: every week now right, I mean he's got to like 1422 01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:05,120 Speaker 1: put it off. He wore it today. If the Bills 1423 01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:07,360 Speaker 1: went on Sunday, he has to wear it next week. Yes, 1424 01:14:07,880 --> 01:14:11,280 Speaker 1: by rule, that's right, trust the process. By rule, he 1425 01:14:11,360 --> 01:14:13,880 Speaker 1: would have to wear it next week. So hopefully it 1426 01:14:14,080 --> 01:14:18,479 Speaker 1: is a lucky sweatshirt because, as we said, that conference 1427 01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:21,080 Speaker 1: race is a real thing, and even though you're playing 1428 01:14:21,080 --> 01:14:25,000 Speaker 1: an NFC opponent this week, getting win number seven would 1429 01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:28,040 Speaker 1: be we in Portante. We have to take a break. 1430 01:14:28,479 --> 01:14:31,000 Speaker 1: When we come back. We got some other stuff in 1431 01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:34,120 Speaker 1: the hopper for you. Coming up here at two thirty 1432 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:36,880 Speaker 1: might have a little time for some NFL true falls, 1433 01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:39,760 Speaker 1: but plenty more coming your way, including the mail bag 1434 01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:42,200 Speaker 1: when we return here. On one Bill's Live presented by 1435 01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:50,800 Speaker 1: Kalida Health, it's Buffalo Bills Raiding.

Steve playing the Numbers Game. Did pretty 1453 01:15:51,680 --> 01:15:53,240 Speaker 1: well in the Numbers Game this week. Gotta give it 1454 01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 1: to you. Just lots of good stuff packed in there. 1455 01:15:56,680 --> 01:15:59,080 Speaker 1: A little bit different from our daily show one Bills Live. 1456 01:15:59,120 --> 01:16:00,799 Speaker 1: So check it out when you get a chance. Bills 1457 01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 1: by the Numbers on any of your podcast platforms. Steve. 1458 01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:08,519 Speaker 1: We have to dive into the OBL Friday fan mail 1459 01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:13,040 Speaker 1: bag and we begin with Rick, who says, if Josh 1460 01:16:13,360 --> 01:16:16,599 Speaker 1: sits this week, wouldn't it make more sense to start 1461 01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:19,360 Speaker 1: Matt Barkley instead of case Keenum. Matt has more experience 1462 01:16:19,479 --> 01:16:22,879 Speaker 1: running this offense and has more playing time with the offense. 1463 01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:26,320 Speaker 1: What do you say to that, case Keenom's better. I 1464 01:16:26,400 --> 01:16:29,400 Speaker 1: mean they had a contest, you know, right, there's a 1465 01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:32,000 Speaker 1: reason he's the backup. Basically, they had a contest and 1466 01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:35,040 Speaker 1: Case one that's why he gets to play. That's that's 1467 01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:38,080 Speaker 1: the way it works. Sorry, Yeah, I mean, I mean 1468 01:16:38,120 --> 01:16:40,759 Speaker 1: I understand. You know, that should give you some confidence. 1469 01:16:40,800 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 1: If you think Matt Barkley can run it, what do 1470 01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:44,519 Speaker 1: you think case Keenom can do? Because they watched him 1471 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:50,080 Speaker 1: do it every day. Um, yeah, I respect the experienced angle. 1472 01:16:50,400 --> 01:16:52,120 Speaker 1: They didn't, but they believe Keenan puts them in a 1473 01:16:52,160 --> 01:16:54,280 Speaker 1: better position to win if he has to play. Yeah, 1474 01:16:54,280 --> 01:16:57,599 Speaker 1: they're not. They don't just pick these guys. It's not arbitrary. Yeah, 1475 01:16:57,640 --> 01:16:59,920 Speaker 1: it's not arbitrary. They earn it. And they're watching every 1476 01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:03,400 Speaker 1: snap a practice film, training camp film, and they did film. Yeah, 1477 01:17:03,400 --> 01:17:04,760 Speaker 1: and they did it all they've done, been doing it 1478 01:17:04,800 --> 01:17:08,120 Speaker 1: since May. So yeah, that they're in the pecking order. 1479 01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:12,519 Speaker 1: They're in for reason. It's not just you know, wrote 1480 01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:16,599 Speaker 1: just yeah. They decide because of their play and nothing else. 1481 01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:19,400 Speaker 1: So no, I don't think that Rachel from the mail 1482 01:17:19,479 --> 01:17:22,040 Speaker 1: Bag asks is Dean Marlow ready to start yet? I 1483 01:17:22,080 --> 01:17:24,040 Speaker 1: feel like he might be a step up from Jaquan 1484 01:17:24,200 --> 01:17:28,400 Speaker 1: Johnson at this point. Um maybe, I mean, maybe we'll 1485 01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:30,639 Speaker 1: see there. I mean, they brought him in for a reason. 1486 01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:32,760 Speaker 1: They feel like they can help him. Of course, with 1487 01:17:32,920 --> 01:17:34,920 Speaker 1: Poiler being in and out of the lineup, with injury, 1488 01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:37,120 Speaker 1: out again this week, out again this week for the 1489 01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:39,439 Speaker 1: fourth time, and they don't have Poiler or hide Micas 1490 01:17:39,439 --> 01:17:43,679 Speaker 1: out for the season, so they you know, um, they've 1491 01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:47,000 Speaker 1: got their guys, they're gonna be going without them. Um, 1492 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:53,600 Speaker 1: at least Micah Um. Yeah, yeah, that's maybe at some 1493 01:17:53,760 --> 01:17:55,200 Speaker 1: point he will. We don't know if he's gonna do 1494 01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:59,280 Speaker 1: it this week or not, though, but certainly there was 1495 01:17:59,320 --> 01:18:01,680 Speaker 1: a reason they ted for him because that's well, they 1496 01:18:01,720 --> 01:18:03,960 Speaker 1: needed depth. That's not just signing a guy off the street. 1497 01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:06,320 Speaker 1: They needed depth. I think they knew that Jordan Poyer's 1498 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:08,639 Speaker 1: injury could linger for a couple of weeks and it has. 1499 01:18:09,479 --> 01:18:12,599 Speaker 1: And the only guy behind DeMar Hamlin and Jaquan Johnson 1500 01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:15,800 Speaker 1: was Cam Lewis at the safety position. So you're short 1501 01:18:15,880 --> 01:18:18,679 Speaker 1: there and they had to add somebody. And Dean Marlowe 1502 01:18:18,680 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 1: I think was a good add a guy who knows 1503 01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:22,720 Speaker 1: the system and has been around this defense, knows how 1504 01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:24,120 Speaker 1: to play off a lot of the guys who are 1505 01:18:24,120 --> 01:18:25,880 Speaker 1: still in this defense from the time that he left 1506 01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:29,200 Speaker 1: two years ago for Detroit and free agency, so yeah, 1507 01:18:30,160 --> 01:18:33,240 Speaker 1: it made sense to acquire him. Do you turn to him, 1508 01:18:33,360 --> 01:18:35,439 Speaker 1: I don't know, We'll have to wait and see. Jiquan 1509 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:38,400 Speaker 1: did have a rough game last week, miss some tackles, 1510 01:18:40,160 --> 01:18:42,280 Speaker 1: was a little slow on a couple of reads, but 1511 01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:44,760 Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see how The thing about it is there, 1512 01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:46,280 Speaker 1: he's not going to get on the field until he 1513 01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:49,880 Speaker 1: until they trust him, until he proves he's a better option, 1514 01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:55,760 Speaker 1: and they're watching him to see if he gets there. Yeah, 1515 01:18:56,120 --> 01:18:58,760 Speaker 1: it's one of the things that people don't get his 1516 01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:04,000 Speaker 1: practice practice, it's important to get prepared to play, but 1517 01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:11,240 Speaker 1: it's also competition, particularly in this culture here, and I 1518 01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:13,439 Speaker 1: don't remember this as being a bigger part of things 1519 01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:17,760 Speaker 1: as when I played than maybe because we had some 1520 01:19:18,040 --> 01:19:24,040 Speaker 1: established guys, But it's they're competing and they're bringing these 1521 01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:26,400 Speaker 1: guys in. They bring they brought Marlow in to compete, 1522 01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:29,439 Speaker 1: you know, Damar Hamlin, Jukuwan Johnson or are there to 1523 01:19:29,520 --> 01:19:32,439 Speaker 1: compete with Micah Hyde and Jordan Poyer. They're they're trying 1524 01:19:32,479 --> 01:19:34,800 Speaker 1: to get these guys better, and that atmosphere is what 1525 01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:37,320 Speaker 1: makes this player development that is so prevalent here in 1526 01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:41,080 Speaker 1: Buffalo a thing. They got these guys competing in practice, 1527 01:19:41,120 --> 01:19:43,360 Speaker 1: trying to get on the field, and when they when 1528 01:19:43,400 --> 01:19:46,320 Speaker 1: they earn it, they get it so it's not just like, hey, 1529 01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:48,400 Speaker 1: we want them to work hard and you know, try 1530 01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:51,040 Speaker 1: and get them, you know, to practice so our starters 1531 01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:53,080 Speaker 1: can get better. We want them to get better, and 1532 01:19:53,200 --> 01:19:55,400 Speaker 1: in fact, we want this guy to get better than 1533 01:19:55,479 --> 01:19:57,799 Speaker 1: this guy so we can play him. So we're improving. 1534 01:19:58,800 --> 01:20:02,040 Speaker 1: That's a real thing. So Marlow, he's probably out there trying, 1535 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:05,280 Speaker 1: and he probably understands that it's out there for him 1536 01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:07,280 Speaker 1: if he wants it, and he's probably working towards it 1537 01:20:07,400 --> 01:20:11,920 Speaker 1: right now. So if he's not out there, it's because 1538 01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:15,599 Speaker 1: he's not there yet. And that's the only reason now 1539 01:20:15,880 --> 01:20:19,800 Speaker 1: they don't hesitate from Jeremy in the fan mail bag. 1540 01:20:19,920 --> 01:20:22,120 Speaker 1: The last few weeks, I've been buying apples and don't 1541 01:20:22,160 --> 01:20:23,800 Speaker 1: know why. I think it's because I listened to this 1542 01:20:23,880 --> 01:20:26,400 Speaker 1: show every day and hear the bit for Snapdragon apples. 1543 01:20:26,920 --> 01:20:30,120 Speaker 1: Where again can one find these? My subconscious has been 1544 01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:34,200 Speaker 1: programmed and I must try these now. Wagmans is where 1545 01:20:34,240 --> 01:20:37,519 Speaker 1: you can go to get Snapdragon apples, So head down there. 1546 01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:40,720 Speaker 1: And I just had one for lunch today with my lunch, 1547 01:20:40,720 --> 01:20:42,400 Speaker 1: I should say it wasn't my lunch. I had a 1548 01:20:42,439 --> 01:20:46,240 Speaker 1: sandwich and then the snapdrags Official Apple of the Buffalo 1549 01:20:46,320 --> 01:20:49,160 Speaker 1: bed Snapdragons. Yeah, well get him at Wagmans. That's where 1550 01:20:49,160 --> 01:20:51,040 Speaker 1: they got him, so head down. How about that. That's 1551 01:20:51,040 --> 01:20:53,639 Speaker 1: the first request like that we've gotten on the Friday 1552 01:20:53,680 --> 01:20:59,080 Speaker 1: mail bag. That's right, Steve. Let's move along to NFL 1553 01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:02,120 Speaker 1: true fall. Let's throw a couple of true falses at you, 1554 01:21:03,320 --> 01:21:07,880 Speaker 1: presented by Patrone Tequila, the official tequila of the Buffalo Bills, 1555 01:21:08,680 --> 01:21:12,720 Speaker 1: and we begin with this NFL true false Number one, 1556 01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:17,839 Speaker 1: Jordan Love should finish the season at quarterback for the Packers. 1557 01:21:18,800 --> 01:21:22,479 Speaker 1: This team is in a tailspin. Aaron Rodgers looks like 1558 01:21:22,520 --> 01:21:26,880 Speaker 1: a shell of himself. He should finish the season at 1559 01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:29,960 Speaker 1: quarterback for the Packers because they got six losses. What 1560 01:21:30,040 --> 01:21:32,640 Speaker 1: are they? Three and six? Three and six? If it 1561 01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:41,400 Speaker 1: gets to eight losses, yes, I think should finish currently 1562 01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:44,599 Speaker 1: eleventh in the conference Green Bay. Yeah, it should finish. 1563 01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:53,400 Speaker 1: Not until they're out of it, will finish. Maybe. Don't 1564 01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:56,280 Speaker 1: don't get too you know, don't go over the overboard 1565 01:21:56,320 --> 01:22:00,320 Speaker 1: of thinking Jordan Love's gonna come in save the season. Don't. Yeah, 1566 01:22:00,360 --> 01:22:02,040 Speaker 1: he's not going to save the season. But if you 1567 01:22:02,080 --> 01:22:04,640 Speaker 1: want to find out if he can play, okay, give 1568 01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:06,000 Speaker 1: him the last month of the season. But let me 1569 01:22:06,120 --> 01:22:08,320 Speaker 1: tell you this. If he comes in and the only 1570 01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:11,439 Speaker 1: reason you're gonna bring him in, I mean, Aaron Rodgers 1571 01:22:11,479 --> 01:22:15,160 Speaker 1: isn't going anywhere. He just signed a multi year deal 1572 01:22:15,439 --> 01:22:19,559 Speaker 1: there there. They'll be dead in the water next year 1573 01:22:20,240 --> 01:22:22,040 Speaker 1: if they cut him, because they won't be able to 1574 01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:25,519 Speaker 1: pay anybody anyway, and you'll be under it. Yeah. No, Um, 1575 01:22:25,960 --> 01:22:27,759 Speaker 1: if you want to find out if he can play, okay, 1576 01:22:27,800 --> 01:22:30,200 Speaker 1: I can listen to that. You don't want to get 1577 01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:32,439 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers have more miles on him or whatever, and 1578 01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:34,760 Speaker 1: you want to find some things out about Jordan Love 1579 01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:39,120 Speaker 1: and everybody else. Okay, Um, he will finish the season 1580 01:22:39,200 --> 01:22:42,280 Speaker 1: those a strong word. He may play some, but I 1581 01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:44,080 Speaker 1: don't think he's gonna start games at the end of 1582 01:22:44,120 --> 01:22:46,439 Speaker 1: the season. I think this question is asking should he 1583 01:22:46,479 --> 01:22:49,080 Speaker 1: finish the season at quarterback basically now to the end 1584 01:22:49,120 --> 01:22:50,960 Speaker 1: of the year, And I would say fall, no, he's 1585 01:22:50,960 --> 01:22:54,360 Speaker 1: not gonna do that. When when the Packers are out 1586 01:22:54,360 --> 01:22:56,160 Speaker 1: of the playoff race and you want to entertain that, 1587 01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:58,760 Speaker 1: that's fine by me, go ahead and knock yourself out. 1588 01:22:58,840 --> 01:23:02,000 Speaker 1: But for now, I would say false, because you're doing 1589 01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:04,479 Speaker 1: a disservice to your team. You paid this guy fifty 1590 01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:07,000 Speaker 1: million dollars a year to lead your offense, and now 1591 01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:08,720 Speaker 1: that you're three and six, you're just gonna put him 1592 01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:10,360 Speaker 1: on the bench if you can't do that. And here's 1593 01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:12,960 Speaker 1: the thing too, and you put yourself in a kind 1594 01:23:12,960 --> 01:23:15,000 Speaker 1: of a lose lose situation. You go out. So Jordan 1595 01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:17,240 Speaker 1: Love goes out and he knocks it dead. He's everything 1596 01:23:17,280 --> 01:23:20,320 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers used to be. Right, he goes out of there, 1597 01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:26,280 Speaker 1: throws touchdowns, runs for touchdowns, no interceptions, lights just lights 1598 01:23:26,320 --> 01:23:32,120 Speaker 1: it up. Well then what yeah? Then what are you 1599 01:23:32,160 --> 01:23:37,680 Speaker 1: gonna do? You're gonna trade him? No, get a one. No, 1600 01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:39,880 Speaker 1: you're not gonna trade him. You're gonna play him ahead 1601 01:23:39,880 --> 01:23:43,760 Speaker 1: of Aaron Rodgers and just fifty million dollars contract. That's 1602 01:23:44,160 --> 01:23:47,080 Speaker 1: that's a tough sell. Yeah, what are you gonna do? 1603 01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:51,040 Speaker 1: You're not trading him? What are you gonna do? Yeah, right, 1604 01:23:51,160 --> 01:23:52,759 Speaker 1: you're not gonna trade You're not gonna Are you gonna 1605 01:23:52,800 --> 01:23:55,800 Speaker 1: play him next year? Yeah? Are you gonna let him come? 1606 01:23:55,880 --> 01:23:57,640 Speaker 1: Are you gonna let him come? Why the hell did 1607 01:23:57,640 --> 01:23:59,400 Speaker 1: you sign him fifty million dollars a year for on 1608 01:23:59,479 --> 01:24:01,600 Speaker 1: a multi year deal? Yeah? I gonna trade him. You 1609 01:24:01,680 --> 01:24:03,600 Speaker 1: just made a fifty million dollars a year commitment to 1610 01:24:03,600 --> 01:24:06,559 Speaker 1: the guy, you're gonna trade him. I'm talking about Jordan Love. Oh, 1611 01:24:06,680 --> 01:24:09,760 Speaker 1: Jordan Love, you're talking about you. You're gonna say, hey, 1612 01:24:09,800 --> 01:24:12,400 Speaker 1: the guy can play. Let's you know, give me that 1613 01:24:12,760 --> 01:24:15,400 Speaker 1: you could do that? Sure, the quarterback drafts for twenty 1614 01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:18,320 Speaker 1: twenty three and twenty twenty four are very good. So 1615 01:24:19,120 --> 01:24:21,160 Speaker 1: if you come and get a guy next year and 1616 01:24:21,479 --> 01:24:23,439 Speaker 1: put him in the pipeline, and then when Naron has 1617 01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:25,639 Speaker 1: done maybe next year, what do you do with Jordan 1618 01:24:25,720 --> 01:24:28,600 Speaker 1: Love if he comes in lights it up? Yeah? You 1619 01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:35,000 Speaker 1: count your you count your blessings countless. You like that, 1620 01:24:35,200 --> 01:24:42,120 Speaker 1: you like that one? You like that? Expecting that was not? No, 1621 01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:44,559 Speaker 1: give me something tangible. What seriously, what are you gonna 1622 01:24:44,600 --> 01:24:49,640 Speaker 1: do with him? Sit another year or two? If I 1623 01:24:49,720 --> 01:24:51,720 Speaker 1: can increase his value by what he's doing on the 1624 01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:53,759 Speaker 1: field at the end of the season and convince somebody 1625 01:24:53,840 --> 01:24:56,519 Speaker 1: that he could lead their football team, Yeah, I'll trade him, 1626 01:24:56,840 --> 01:24:58,639 Speaker 1: provided I can get a one in return. So you're 1627 01:24:58,680 --> 01:25:01,160 Speaker 1: gonna trade two one? Wait, wait, you're gonna trade the 1628 01:25:01,280 --> 01:25:03,680 Speaker 1: Jordan Love or you're gonna try and trade either one 1629 01:25:03,800 --> 01:25:07,120 Speaker 1: or both. No, I would trade Love because you made 1630 01:25:07,120 --> 01:25:09,960 Speaker 1: the commitment that you did to Rogers. What's a commitment 1631 01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:12,840 Speaker 1: got to do with it? Well, if somebody else look 1632 01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:15,559 Speaker 1: at the capit, it's pretty fair. Now if you trade him, 1633 01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:18,360 Speaker 1: they take it. No, they don't, not all the bonus 1634 01:25:18,439 --> 01:25:21,280 Speaker 1: moneys and everything. Yeah, but Jordan Loves under contract. You don't. 1635 01:25:21,600 --> 01:25:24,760 Speaker 1: It's money already spent. Are you talking Jordan Love or 1636 01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:26,720 Speaker 1: you're talking Aaron Rodgers Because you're flipping back and forth 1637 01:25:26,760 --> 01:25:29,479 Speaker 1: and you're confusing. They both have to do with the other. 1638 01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:32,360 Speaker 1: If you're gonna keep Jordan Love and trade Aaron Rodgers, 1639 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:34,840 Speaker 1: or you can trade Jordan Love and keep Aaron Rodgers. 1640 01:25:34,920 --> 01:25:38,639 Speaker 1: But you gotta entertain both things. If Jordan Love shows 1641 01:25:38,680 --> 01:25:41,880 Speaker 1: you he can be the guy. Yeah. To me, the 1642 01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:44,479 Speaker 1: commitment they made to Rodgers means that if you have 1643 01:25:44,560 --> 01:25:47,000 Speaker 1: to choose between one of them, you're moving Love. You're 1644 01:25:47,040 --> 01:25:50,479 Speaker 1: just are you're not trading a way that four time MVP. 1645 01:25:50,920 --> 01:25:53,240 Speaker 1: They're just they're not gonna do it. They're not gonna 1646 01:25:53,240 --> 01:25:56,559 Speaker 1: do it, not with the track. Jordan Love wins four 1647 01:25:56,600 --> 01:25:58,599 Speaker 1: games and now you're picking him over Aaron Rodgers. They're 1648 01:25:58,640 --> 01:26:02,800 Speaker 1: not doing that. There's no way. How many games did 1649 01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:07,120 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers win before they chucked Fret Farve to the curb. Well, 1650 01:26:07,600 --> 01:26:11,680 Speaker 1: they kicked him to the curb, they did. That's what 1651 01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:15,040 Speaker 1: you gotta do. Man. If if Jordan Love makes makes 1652 01:26:15,160 --> 01:26:18,639 Speaker 1: chicken salad out of chicken pooh that Aaron Rodgers made, 1653 01:26:19,200 --> 01:26:22,360 Speaker 1: but how good? Yeah, but there are various degrees of 1654 01:26:22,720 --> 01:26:26,920 Speaker 1: how good Jordan Love looks. I just said. I just said. 1655 01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:29,000 Speaker 1: That's what he did. He lit the world on fire 1656 01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:31,639 Speaker 1: and caught lightning at a bottle. They were smoking hot, 1657 01:26:31,680 --> 01:26:34,519 Speaker 1: and he was winning games. He was he was Josh 1658 01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:36,960 Speaker 1: Allen in the Green Bay uniform. Then you gotta check 1659 01:26:37,080 --> 01:26:39,320 Speaker 1: the financials. Can you afford to even trade the dang 1660 01:26:39,360 --> 01:26:41,360 Speaker 1: guy because you paid him fifty million dollars a year. 1661 01:26:41,760 --> 01:26:43,640 Speaker 1: I don't know what his contract says in terms of 1662 01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:46,439 Speaker 1: the bonus money um, in terms of what you can do, 1663 01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:48,240 Speaker 1: and whether you could afford the dead cap just for 1664 01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:50,439 Speaker 1: one year. Remember they were up against it. No, he 1665 01:26:50,600 --> 01:26:55,720 Speaker 1: signed through twenty twenty six. Who rogers, Well, that's irrelevant. 1666 01:26:57,080 --> 01:26:59,920 Speaker 1: It's not irrelevant when your dead cap in twenty twenty 1667 01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:02,880 Speaker 1: three is ninety nine million dollars. That's what it is. 1668 01:27:03,320 --> 01:27:05,880 Speaker 1: I just looked it up. You wouldn't have any dead cap. 1669 01:27:05,960 --> 01:27:08,519 Speaker 1: You wouldn't have any of that. You trade him, you 1670 01:27:08,720 --> 01:27:11,200 Speaker 1: move him off your roster, it hits your cap. All 1671 01:27:11,280 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 1: the bonus money you take because you signed they didn't 1672 01:27:14,160 --> 01:27:17,760 Speaker 1: give him. That's nine million. If you cut him, it's 1673 01:27:17,800 --> 01:27:22,280 Speaker 1: not that much. If he trade him, No, because his 1674 01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:26,880 Speaker 1: base salary next year is one point one six five 1675 01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:29,920 Speaker 1: million dollars. He had a signing bonus of twelve point 1676 01:27:30,040 --> 01:27:32,360 Speaker 1: nine eight. He had an option bonus of fourteen and 1677 01:27:32,400 --> 01:27:35,200 Speaker 1: a half. All of that hits your cap, along with 1678 01:27:35,280 --> 01:27:38,280 Speaker 1: the next three years after that. All that bonus money 1679 01:27:38,479 --> 01:27:41,920 Speaker 1: is dead cap. Whether you trade him or you cut him, 1680 01:27:42,280 --> 01:27:46,559 Speaker 1: ninety nine million dollars they're keeping Rogers moving Love. Well, 1681 01:27:46,640 --> 01:27:49,680 Speaker 1: here's the thing. If they did that, I think they 1682 01:27:49,720 --> 01:27:55,880 Speaker 1: already know about Jordan Love. Okay, Well, that was a 1683 01:27:55,960 --> 01:28:00,599 Speaker 1: total circular, some moot point break tive for us. Whatever. 1684 01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:03,320 Speaker 1: Steve and I to come back with the final segment 1685 01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:06,960 Speaker 1: where there's something to be said about Thanksgiving plans for 1686 01:28:07,040 --> 01:28:10,519 Speaker 1: the NFL that involved the late great John matten More 1687 01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:23,600 Speaker 1: On that next year on One Bill's Live. All right, 1688 01:28:23,640 --> 01:28:27,080 Speaker 1: we're building a game plan presented by United Rentals. United Rentals, 1689 01:28:27,120 --> 01:28:29,760 Speaker 1: it's the exclusive and official construction equipment rental partner of 1690 01:28:29,760 --> 01:28:32,200 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills, Steve building a game plan for the 1691 01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:35,640 Speaker 1: Bill's offense. Bill's offense, Case Keenom's got to take the 1692 01:28:35,760 --> 01:28:38,519 Speaker 1: high percentage of completion, get the ball out of his hands. 1693 01:28:38,520 --> 01:28:40,320 Speaker 1: I think there's a much bigger There should be a 1694 01:28:40,439 --> 01:28:44,120 Speaker 1: much more. You're gonna get much many more targets this week, 1695 01:28:44,240 --> 01:28:51,320 Speaker 1: to to Cook to Hinz, to Singletary, to Dawson Knox. 1696 01:28:51,360 --> 01:28:53,360 Speaker 1: There's going to be some easier completion so to get 1697 01:28:53,400 --> 01:28:54,840 Speaker 1: the ball out of his hands, and the run game's 1698 01:28:54,840 --> 01:28:56,479 Speaker 1: gonna have to be a little bit more prominent along 1699 01:28:56,479 --> 01:28:58,599 Speaker 1: with play action. When you want to get a big play, 1700 01:28:58,680 --> 01:29:03,120 Speaker 1: that's what you're gonna have to do. No called quarterback 1701 01:29:03,240 --> 01:29:07,240 Speaker 1: runs for case Keenum. Maybe the occasional RPO, and that's 1702 01:29:07,280 --> 01:29:09,040 Speaker 1: where it's gonna stop. You've got to stay on the 1703 01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:12,320 Speaker 1: field offensively and be efficient. Get yourself to the red 1704 01:29:12,400 --> 01:29:14,799 Speaker 1: zone because you can take advantage of the Vikings defense 1705 01:29:14,880 --> 01:29:18,360 Speaker 1: down there. Knowing the defense is going to have a 1706 01:29:18,439 --> 01:29:21,479 Speaker 1: hard time getting to Cousins with all the three step 1707 01:29:21,600 --> 01:29:24,000 Speaker 1: drop and quick throws that he makes. They got to 1708 01:29:24,040 --> 01:29:26,439 Speaker 1: get their hands up. Saw a lot of batted passes 1709 01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:29,600 Speaker 1: on film, in their last three games on Cousins. That 1710 01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:32,479 Speaker 1: helps the guys on the back end, hopefully trudevious plays 1711 01:29:32,520 --> 01:29:35,040 Speaker 1: to help in the coverage, and hopefully it's enough for 1712 01:29:35,120 --> 01:29:37,880 Speaker 1: a win. That's it for us. We'll see on Monday 1713 01:29:37,920 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 1: at noon to break it all down. Enjoy the game 1714 01:29:40,040 --> 01:29:40,519 Speaker 1: on Sunday.
