1
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: At a Steve Tasker who has been all over the fields.

2
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: Kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role

3
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: player for you, Steve a blimp. We're not even in

4
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: the strated here of normalcy here. All right, let's get

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: the brew haha. Roll in here on a Thursday, Chris Brown,

6
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker with you and speaking a brew haha. It

7
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 1: is blowing something beers outside the walls of one Bill's

8
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,200
Speaker 1: Drive here. Practice was moved inside today and with good

9
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: reason because if you were going to try to throw

10
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,200
Speaker 1: a football, it's not happen. Our roof here in the

11
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: studio is just rattling. Oh, it's ready to peel off. Yeah,

12
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 1: we're gonna yeah, We're gonna be exposed to the to

13
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: the elements in about two seconds, which would make for

14
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: a very exciting show for our MSG viewers. Steve and

15
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 1: I will be out anchos. It's bad out and the

16
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: wind is really whipping here in op. Yeah. So, as

17
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: we said, practice moved inside for the Bills and coach

18
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: with really not a definitive update on the status the

19
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: game playing status. I should say of Spencer Brown, John Feliciano,

20
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: and Star Latulala and his reasoning behind that is, he

21
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 1: wants to see them practice today, wants to see what

22
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 1: they can offer. And Steve and I have talked about this.

23
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: The layoff is significant. Star missed three games and Spencer

24
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: Brown and has missed two. John Feliciano has missed four.

25
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 1: And even if you get two, well, he missed two.

26
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: Then before that he missed the back and then he

27
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: was missed the two prior to that. So he's played

28
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: one of the last five games. Right, Feliciano has missed

29
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: four and Latulae has missed three. So, um, you don't

30
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: just even with three or four practices, there's going to

31
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: be a reacclamation period to live regular season football right

32
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: where it's just gonna be like, whoa, let me get

33
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 1: used to this speed again, particularly with Star and Brown

34
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: because they were out of the building, right They couldn't

35
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: even come to work. They had to do everything virtual.

36
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: Now Feliciano is different story. He's been in here working

37
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 1: out who's been in meetings in person. He's like he's

38
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: you know, he's just been like a backup player for

39
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: three weeks, doing his treatments and all that. But but

40
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 1: Star and Spencer, you need to see them. The good

41
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: news is that's a big acclamation. Yeah. The good news

42
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 1: is that Cole Beasley is the only player not participating

43
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: in practice today and he's just a veteran rest day.

44
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 1: So coming off this mini buy out of Thanksgiving where

45
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: they basically got Friday, Saturday, Sunday off, it looks like

46
00:02:54,080 --> 00:03:00,519
Speaker 1: it's benefited them, and you know, you feel rejuvenated. It's

47
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: it's good timing because their bye week was early this

48
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: year's week seven and in an eighteen week season, two

49
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: preseason games and two season games, which you did not

50
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: have last right, so now it's like it's right almost

51
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: right in the middle of all. So you get that break,

52
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: you play four more games, and then you get a

53
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: mini break here before a big division game. And so

54
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: you would hope the extra time to prepare for the

55
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: Patriots benefits Buffalo in this game. We'll have to just

56
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 1: wait and see. The signing of cornerback Greg Stroman to

57
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 1: the practice squad became official today. The reports on that

58
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: were out a day or so ago, but finally Penn

59
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: has been put to paper and that deal is done.

60
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: So that's done. And there was this also Patriots quarterback

61
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: Mac Jones named AFC Rookie of the month in November.

62
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 1: Basically was completing almost seventy seven percent of his passes

63
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: in the month of November for almost nine hundred yards,

64
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: seven touchdowns, two picks, playing pretty quick month. Meanwhile, his

65
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: teammge J. C. Jackson named AFC Defensive Player of the

66
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: Month for November. Six pass breakups, a force fumble, four interceptions,

67
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 1: including one that was returned for an an touch And

68
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: in a conference where every other team at the top,

69
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: even the playoff teams, all the seven of the playoff

70
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: teams have all been riding this roller coaster. The Patriots

71
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: have been pretty step, particularly in the last five or

72
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: six weeks, because they've got a six game winning streak.

73
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: You know, they're playing really consistently. Everybody else has been

74
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: riding this wave of up and down games and wins

75
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: and losses to an unbelievable to Even the Colts, who

76
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: looked virtually unbeatable against the Bills two weeks ago, got

77
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: their heads handed to him by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Granted,

78
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers or the world defending world champions, but the

79
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,599
Speaker 1: Colts looked like world champions when they played here in Buffalo,

80
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: and so even those guys and you know we Baltimore, Tennessee, Cincinnati,

81
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 1: all the other teams at the top of the conference.

82
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: The Kansas City now has gotten it together. They were

83
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: struggling in the beginning of year. Now they're starting to ride.

84
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: It's just crazy how inconsistently everybody's played, except now for

85
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: the last six weeks or so. The Patriots, they've played

86
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 1: pretty steady and they've got a couple of guys getting

87
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: rewarded for it. There is also some news concerning the

88
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: weather forecast for the Monday night game between the Bills

89
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:39,239
Speaker 1: and the Patriots. As of yesterday, there is a chance

90
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 1: of snow showers, but it's supposed to be in the

91
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: morning on Monday and then it clears out and there

92
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: will be some wind Monday night low of about twenty

93
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: nine degrees, but there was no discernible precip to report

94
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: upon until now. So according to a couple of meteorologists,

95
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: including Patrick Hammer from Channel two, the Monday Night football

96
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 1: forecasts has a European forecast model that is predicting strong

97
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: winds and lake effects snow for the Bills game. Apparently,

98
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: the American models are much weaker in terms of the

99
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,559
Speaker 1: severity of the storm, with less impact from snow and wind,

100
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 1: but knowing that it's still what five days out, we

101
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: got to start seeing what comes into focus here. So

102
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,799
Speaker 1: why would the europe I wonder why the European models

103
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: are saying it's gonna be bad, and the and the

104
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: American models are computer model are saying it's not gonna

105
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: be so bad. That's an excellent question, Steve, and one

106
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 1: to which I do not have the answer either. I

107
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 1: can only guess that you know, are we the Europeans

108
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: just automatically expect the worst? I don't know. I really

109
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: don't have an answer for you on that. Yeah, I

110
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 1: don't know either. I can google it for you. Why

111
00:06:55,440 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a factor though, right if it's If

112
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: it's lake effects snow and there's really bad, we have

113
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 1: another snow game like the Colts game? What are we

114
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: gonna I don't. I'll tell you right now. That kind

115
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: of weather does not favor the Bills at all, not

116
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: with the way New England runs the foot. I wouldn't.

117
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: I don't want the weather that doesn't put the Bills

118
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: in a good situation in my opinion. Number one, it

119
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: robs your receiving core of their speed, even though they

120
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: might know where they're gonna be going, and the defense

121
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: still has to react to them. Separation ability, that kind

122
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: of stuff. You can't manufacture that if there's two inches

123
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: of snow on the ground, you just can't. And you

124
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: get a lake effects snow band dropped over this thing,

125
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: and you're getting two inches an hour. You know, I

126
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: love our operations staff, but you're gonna need five times

127
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 1: the number of guys running around with blowers here of

128
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: the field. I was here in that Colt game, eight

129
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: inches of snow everywhere, and they tried to keep it

130
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: the yard lines cleared. I mean, it's looking like the

131
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: European models are saying that's exactly what we're gonna get

132
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: right now, five days out. And we all, we here

133
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: in Buffalo no better than anybody that five days is

134
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: way too long to make a call on what the

135
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: weather is going to be on Monday night. Way too early,

136
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: all right, So let's get where it start talking about it.

137
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to the bottom of this, Okay. The

138
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: European models and the American models in terms of weather forecasting,

139
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: the main differences between the two involve accuracy, which kind

140
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:30,679
Speaker 1: of sounds weird, don't they all want to be accurate

141
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: to the difference between the two models involves accuracy and

142
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 1: time frame of predictions. However, both are global models. The

143
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: American model, also known as the Global Forecast System model,

144
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,839
Speaker 1: is operated by the National Weather Service, Right what's the

145
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: Globe's Their forecasts or produced four times a day and

146
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 1: can predict up to sixteen days in advance. The computing power.

147
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: This is amazing, Steve. The computing power used to create

148
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 1: these models can process eight quadrillion calculations a second. And

149
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,439
Speaker 1: they still don't get it right. I'll say this sometimes

150
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 1: here's the problem. They usually get it right, but it's

151
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 1: always like twelve hours later or earlier than they thought

152
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: it was going to be. You know what I mean,

153
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: So listen to this. The European model, known as the

154
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: European Center for Medium Range Weather Forecasts, is more powerful

155
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: than the American model and generally a better model. The

156
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: main reasoning for this is the organization and processing of

157
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: the data, as well as the power of the supercomputer itself.

158
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: In fact, the European model was able to accurately predict

159
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 1: when Hurricane Sandy would turn into the northeastern section of

160
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: the United States before the American model could so insummation.

161
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: The European model would appear to be the more accurate

162
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 1: of the two. Crap, We're still five days out. It's

163
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: going to change seven times between be a snow game.

164
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,839
Speaker 1: It's gonna be it's gonna be horrible. Come on, I've

165
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: got bringing on. I don't want the snow Steve, I

166
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,959
Speaker 1: really really don't, you know, don't want it. Here's the thing,

167
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: and here's where my mind goes. Always. Everybody's gonna be like, well,

168
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 1: why don't don't you gotta put a roof on the

169
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: new stadium if you're gonna be a throwing team for

170
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: the next decade, which as long as Josh is the quarterback.

171
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: We're not thinking in decades though, we're thinking in you know.

172
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: I mean, do you realize that high Mark Stadium is

173
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: older than the Rock Pile was when they demolished it

174
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: in terms of age. Yeah, and it's when it was

175
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: built and when it got torn down. High Mark's older

176
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: than the Rock Pile was. I did not know that.

177
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 1: You do, now I do. Now you learn something. Everything

178
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: that's one and yeah, So think about the generations that

179
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 1: we're gonna have be in this new building wherever it

180
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 1: is where they allow you know, yeah, I hear you.

181
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 1: I don't have it. I really I don't. It's who cares.

182
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a great stadium. It's gonna be awesome. Fine,

183
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: But this, you know, throwing this into that argument is

184
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,079
Speaker 1: I don't know how much I know Josh. I mean,

185
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: think about it. Peyton Manning built that state. You know,

186
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 1: they say it's the house that Peyton built, you know,

187
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: and the house of Michael Jordan built in Chicago, and

188
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: this is gonna be the house that Josh built. If

189
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: it's a house instead of a corral, even a car port,

190
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: a car poard, seal up the car pord something, this

191
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: is the gazebo that Josh built. So but that's it.

192
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: You think about it, and it's only you know, here's

193
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 1: the thing for this game and this gay yeah okay, yeah,

194
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: I which kind of had the roof, but there's like

195
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 1: a zillion others that are saying, no, no, no no, we

196
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: don't want the roof. Let's you know, let's let them

197
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: let them bake, you know, or let's let them let

198
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: them suffer. Let's bring the dolphins up here in a

199
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: snowstorm and let them try and do it. Let's bring

200
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: the La Raiders. I remember we had their La Raiders

201
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 1: show up here in the coldest game and builds his

202
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:01,959
Speaker 1: or I was playing in that way. I was at

203
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: that game that game. Oh maybe that that game was

204
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: bitter cold. I couldn't feel my feet, oh man. And

205
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: it was bright and sunny too, you remember that couldn't

206
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: feel the bright sunny game and it was like dangerous cold,

207
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: dangerous cold. Yeah, oh my goodness, it was. That's one.

208
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,439
Speaker 1: I had a kickoff return in that game. And Bruce

209
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: has got his vassoline on his cheeks is frozen. Oh

210
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: my gosh, unbelievable. That so that's all gonna go. Yeah,

211
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: seventy two. That's I got his helmet in my house. Um,

212
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: this game was absolute just oh it was so cold,

213
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: so cold. There's a guy on the Rage. I don't

214
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: know who it was, but he was on the bench.

215
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: He was a special team or as a backup player.

216
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: He was on the frozen there's my kick return that

217
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 1: people in image you're seeing it. So there was a

218
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: he was sitting on the bench for the Raiders and

219
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: he was so cold he started to like go to

220
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: sleep and he couldn't get up. He wouldn't he couldn't play.

221
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 1: He just sat there and his eyes were half open.

222
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: He just sat there with his hand. You know, those

223
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 1: heated benches, and they started piling on those ponchos on

224
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: top of him because he was so cold. He couldn't

225
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,359
Speaker 1: he couldn't function. He just shut down. Wait a second, yeah,

226
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 1: during the game. Yeah, he just gave up. He says, I,

227
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: I can't go. He just gave up, sat on the

228
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: bench and just and they did everything he could to

229
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: keep him warm. He gave up. That that's when you

230
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: don't want to go dome on your stadium. When they

231
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: give up. Too tough for them. Just right say it.

232
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: I forgot. You almost got to the pylon on that

233
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: I did, you know, knocked it knocked the wind out

234
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: of me. It knocked the wind out of me. When

235
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: I landed fully extend, when I had the ball tucked

236
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 1: in the arm away, so I landed on the ball.

237
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 1: I can't remember right, I landed on the ball anyway,

238
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 1: And when I came down, I landed on the ball,

239
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: took out the pylon. I went over by the wall

240
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 1: because here comes Mark Pike and and all the you know,

241
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: Richard Harvey and all the Yeah, I had the ball

242
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: inm outside or I'm like a good running back should

243
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: and I landed and slid, and the air in my

244
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,839
Speaker 1: lung just said I'm out and I couldn't breathe it.

245
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 1: So I go over and here come the guys. They're

246
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: all like, you know, like they're all you know, jack,

247
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 1: just yeah, they're steaming, man, They're all warmed up. And

248
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 1: I go and I can't breathe. I'm like, so I know,

249
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: I just can't. I'm like, I'm about ready to pass

250
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: out because you know, you're you got the adrenaline you're

251
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: and I can't breathe. So I'm my body's needs like

252
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: a thousand times more oxygen than I can actually take in.

253
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: And I'm literally, I mean, I almost can't keep my feet.

254
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: I start to go, you know, ver climped right. So

255
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 1: they're over there there, I'm up against the wall. I'm

256
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: laying up against the wall to give myself some shelter

257
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: so they don't like lift me up and start moving

258
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 1: me around and stuff, because I'm gonna I'm gonna pass out.

259
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: It hurts so bad. And the other thing, too, is

260
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 1: that I'm not even thinking about until you just said it. Again,

261
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 1: because I mean, as an athlete, you've probably had to

262
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 1: win knocked out of you at least one. It happens

263
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: a lot in soccer because you take a ball directly

264
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: to your diaphragm. It pops that thing up. Every kid

265
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: and knocked out of him. Um. But with how cold

266
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: it was, you're trying to take air in and all

267
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 1: your diaphragm will let you do is breathe in. It

268
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: won't let you exhale it. You're just doing that and

269
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: then it's all frozen air scruciate, excruciating to go back

270
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 1: to the Willie gulp pushed me out of bounds. I

271
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: didn't know who it was because I couldn't see is

272
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: over my shoulder. That's got to make you feel good.

273
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: We didn't get knocked out of bounds because I thought

274
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: he taught me. I thought, yeah, I was like, who

275
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: you know who ran me down? I thought I was

276
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: a pretty fast guy. And the guy they said, yeah,

277
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: Dan Turk, the Hunter, his brother, the long snap, the

278
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: fat guy. God rest his soul. He's not with us anymore.

279
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: And I had a lot of respect for him, but

280
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: he had dank. I go Dann Turk. I get guys

281
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: he's all the way back. I was like, God, I

282
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: was sitting there going Goali. Then I look up and

283
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: he's Willie. You know, he's an Olympic sprinter, ran me. Now,

284
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, I can live with that. They

285
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: were getting They were busting my chops telling me Willy go.

286
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: I mean, if the weather's like that, Steve, it's gonna

287
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: take the kicking game out of it. Listen, the kicking

288
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: game becomes precarious big time. I mean big time. If

289
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: it's windy. The kicking game is an absolute adventure. Well

290
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: and footing. If if there's snow on the field, well,

291
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: there's a lot of things when the win. I was

292
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: on with Howard and Jeremy this morning and we just

293
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: started talking about it. The wind affects special teams as

294
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: much as any facet of the game. The long snap

295
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: is even an adventure, even the short snap, even dropping

296
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 1: a punch to a punter's foot, Like Brian Mormon used

297
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 1: to tell me all the time, when the wind's whipping there,

298
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: He's had instances where he would drop the ball and

299
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 1: by the time he dropped it to the time he kicked,

300
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 1: it would move over six inches. It wasn't there. Yeah,

301
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 1: John Landetta is notoriously and back in the eighties he

302
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: missed the ball. He whipped completely, so that that's an

303
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: underrated element to the whole thing. So if it's a

304
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 1: horrible day on Monday night and the wind is whipping

305
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 1: and is it special teams is going to be an

306
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: absolute roll of the dice for for both teams. So

307
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 1: we'll keep an eye on the forecast as the days

308
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 1: move along here. We'll get another update Friday, and then

Speaker 1: when it really will come into focus. We're gone you

311
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 1: looking at We're gonna be on for three hours on

312
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: Monday noon to three on Monday before the game, and

313
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,439
Speaker 1: then you'll be on pregame like you always are, right

314
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: the un table, You're gonna do the You're gonna do

315
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 1: a pregame interview with Sean McDermott as well. Um, so

316
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: all that's gonna have. It's gonna be a full day

317
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: while everybody's out of the stadium getting ready for the game.

318
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: You'll be able to have WGR on and watching and

319
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 1: listen to One Bills Live too. But it's we're gonna

320
00:17:56,119 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 1: be that is gonna be absolutely topic one for everybody. Well,

321
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: if it's still a threat, absolutely yeah, because it's going

322
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 1: to change the entire complex. Unless unless it gets to

323
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: the point where it hits early like on Sunday night

324
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 1: early Monday morning, where they gotta Clinton, then it stops.

325
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 1: You know that it's going to be a normal you

326
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Or if they think it's gonna

327
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: hold off, hold off, hold off and come at halftime

328
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,680
Speaker 1: or something like that. But yeah, but they usually don't

329
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: zero in on these things until about twenty four to

330
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 1: thirty six hours out, maybe forty eight hours, where you know,

331
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: once you start seeing a watch and then it goes

332
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 1: like a watch means it could come. A warning means

333
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: it's coming. It's on its way. So here's the thing.

334
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: So tomorrow's last day, Friday, That's what we got to

335
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: remember at right, is on the white board. At two

336
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,400
Speaker 1: to thirty tomorrow, we're gonna do our final weather check

337
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: for Monday night before we come back on on Monday,

338
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 1: and then we'll do it again Monday. We'll do it

339
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 1: again Monday. But you know, I gotta get him through

340
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 1: the weekend. All right, We've talked enough about the weather.

341
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,199
Speaker 1: Let's tell you what's coming up on the show. In

342
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,160
Speaker 1: about ten minute, it's time we're going to hear from

343
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: one Field. Yates from ESPN will be joining us to

344
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: give us his ultimate fantasy lineup, presented by fan Duelmake

345
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: every moment More. We'll also ask him about this bill's

346
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 1: Patriots Monday Night tilt and get his thoughts on that.

347
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 1: After practice, fresh off the field, presented by Austin Air,

348
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 1: we will have one Mario Addison who has been playing

349
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 1: some pretty darning good football the last couple of weeks

350
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: along with at Oliver upfront on the defensive front, so

351
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: we'll catch up with him, see how things are going

352
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 1: in preparation for this Patriots team, and the quick release

353
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: quarterback of Mac Jones. And then final half hour of

354
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 1: the show, we hope to have Josh Allen's press conference

355
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: with the media right after practice as well, so plenty

356
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: to bring you along the way. But we want to

357
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: begin on the phone lines as we are asking you

358
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 1: as part of our Twitter conversation today, what's the biggest

359
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: storyline ahead of Monday Night's game against the Patriots. Biggest storyline,

360
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: so let us know what you think in that respect.

361
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 1: But we go to the phones and leading us off

362
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 1: today is Jim in Penfield. Jim, what do you have

363
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 1: for us? You're all one bills live. Hey guys, how

364
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 1: are you doing the same? Okay, quick, well I didn't

365
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 1: really think about what's going to be the big thing,

366
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,360
Speaker 1: But now that you're talking about the weather, that's probably

367
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: going to be the number one question going in. But

368
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: I noticed something this week, a quirk in the scheduling.

369
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: How often does it happen that a team two teams

370
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,719
Speaker 1: that play on Thanksgiving night play the following Thursday. I mean,

371
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,719
Speaker 1: you've got Dallas and New Orleans playing tonight and they

372
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: played last weekend last week on Thursday. So ye. Also,

373
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: also the Oakland game that Steve was talking about where

374
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: he got knocked out by Willie Golf, I remember seeing

375
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 1: Howie long standing at the goal line on the Edmond

376
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 1: side of the field, puffing like a steam engine in

377
00:20:55,920 --> 00:21:00,159
Speaker 1: the first quarter. So okay, that's it. But I just

378
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: wondering about that that before answer sure, ye, if it

379
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 1: has happened before. Man, oh man, it's it's weird because

380
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: I mean, in the in the grand scheme of things,

381
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 1: it's it's a week. Yeah, you could argue if you're

382
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: one of those teams. You could argue that you're essentially

383
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: playing three games in eleven days. Yeah, that's tough. Now,

384
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 1: this happens, though, that's happened before. Um, that doesn't happen often.

385
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: Three games and Bills had that. I think last year

386
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 1: when they were played one was it because of the

387
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: Tuesday game they had with the Chiefs. With the Chiefs,

388
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 1: it happened, Um, and it happens occasionally. You can do that,

389
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: but you need a mini buy after, you know, if

390
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,120
Speaker 1: that last game is a Thursday game, it's it's okay,

391
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: then you get a little time off or if it's

392
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 1: a buy. Actually, I think the Chiefs was Monday. Titans

393
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: was a Tuesday, I remember right, right, The Titans was

394
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: a Tuesday Chiefs with the following but the Bills day.

395
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: But then the Bills played, didn't The Bills played the

396
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: Chiefs on Monday night, Monday at five pm, right, and

397
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: then they played the Titans at Tuesday the next week

398
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 1: and played Sunday. Right. Yeah, it was like three games

399
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: in twelve days or something like that. Yeah, something like that.

400
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 1: It does happen, and every time you play common, every

401
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 1: time you play a Thursday game, you do play three

402
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 1: games in eleven days, you know, Sunday, Sunday, Thursday. That's

403
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: eleven days in three games. So that happens very regularly.

404
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 1: But to have teams play on the Thursday, Thanksgiving and

405
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: then both of them play Thursday, both teams, I ask

406
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 1: the way it should be because it's fair, right, But

407
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 1: and maybe that's what they had to justify it. Maybe,

408
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,959
Speaker 1: you know, because both teams played that day. Now, granted,

409
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: the Saint's probably had a little bit less rest because

410
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: they played the night game. Cowboys played four hours before,

411
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: but the Cowboys are the team that's traveling rights. Both

412
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 1: teams were home for the Thanksgiving games, so that helps

413
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 1: if you were way sleep in your own bed. Yeah, yeah,

414
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 1: you get out of there quicker and you don't you know,

415
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: there's no flight or anything. So yeah, that's it's uncommon.

416
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: It is uncome, but it does happen, and it's interesting

417
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 1: and I hadn't thought about that. It's a good, good

418
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 1: observation by Jim from Penfield. Yes, we move along and

419
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: go to Justin and Buffalo next. Justin, what do you

420
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 1: have for us? You're on One Bill's Live. Hey, Chris,

421
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: say Steve, how you guys? Doing good. Hey, I'm gonna

422
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 1: answer your question real quick. I got one to follow.

423
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: Um one. I think the storyline is going to do

424
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 1: the Bill's offense versus the Patriot defense in general. Um

425
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,679
Speaker 1: that's just been a big talk because of how inconsistent

426
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: the Bill's offense has been. If they got up into

427
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 1: a league, then it's going to be let's see if

428
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: mac jone can keep up. Our question is, doesn't the

429
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,640
Speaker 1: game remind you of last year when we played the Steelers,

430
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 1: where you said, oh, well, big Ben can't throw deeper,

431
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 1: doesn't deep. Everything's either a run or a short pass.

432
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 1: That's how let's see the Patriot offense. I think I

433
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: gonna let you guys talk. Okay, I don't think that

434
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 1: mac Jones is as limited as a passer as Ben

435
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 1: was even last year. He can throw deep and he

436
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 1: is very, very accurate. He doesn't have a Howitzerer for

437
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: an arm, but he can get it down the field.

438
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 1: He make throws. Yeah, they don't. You know, he's got

439
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: you know, whatever you want to call it. His arm

440
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 1: isn't as strong as Josh, so you'll see his throws

441
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: maybe have a hierarch on him, but they arrive on time.

442
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 1: And they are on target. The guy can play. He's

443
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 1: got the physical attributes to be an NFL quarterback and

444
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 1: a good one. He doesn't have the physical traits like

445
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: Josh Allen does, meaning he can't throw it, you know,

446
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: thirty five yards before the safety can break on it,

447
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 1: and he can't outrun people and Mac Jones ain't jumping

448
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 1: over guys like Josh has done. But that guy can play,

449
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 1: and they they have structured everything around his skill sets

450
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 1: so that they maximize it. So it's they're tough to beat.

451
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: As you can see, their six game winning streak is

452
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 1: not an accident. They are the frustrating. They're that one

453
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,439
Speaker 1: of those teams that are so frustrating to play against

454
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 1: because you never catch them in a bad play, and

455
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,360
Speaker 1: you never catch them out of position, and you never

456
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 1: catch them making a mistake that you can take advantage of. Yeah,

457
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: they just don't. They are playing the most consistent football

458
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 1: of probably any team out there right now. You know,

459
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 1: they started two and four, but they've ripped off sixth straight.

460
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 1: And granted there's some there's some softies in there, some

461
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 1: cupcakes on that six game winnings. Bills have their share

462
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,360
Speaker 1: of those two and let's think about this too. They've

463
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 1: got this officiating crew that has called the fewest penalties

464
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 1: of any crew in the league. That that throws an

465
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: interesting wrinkle into it. That means defensively, you can probably

466
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,160
Speaker 1: play pretty physical and get away with it. I think

467
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 1: that that helps us with two good two young corner.

468
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,640
Speaker 1: Also allows the Patriots to bend the rules as they're

469
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 1: known to do anyway, right, I mean, yeah, but you

470
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 1: know it's and unfortunately you're in in a game where

471
00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,919
Speaker 1: it looks like the team that can cheap best win

472
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: ends and Patriots have a reputation. But that's the way

473
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: I'm saying. I'm saying, I'm joking about cheating best, but

474
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 1: that you know are gonna you got to adjust to that. Yeah,

475
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: you got to adjust to it. And the other big

476
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 1: development that came down the pike today was Kyle Dugger,

477
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 1: the second year's safety for the Patriots, wound up on

478
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 1: the COVID reserve list today. Even if he is a

479
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 1: vaccinated player, it is going to be very hard for

480
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: him to get back in time to play on Monday,

481
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: not to mention the fact that he's out of the

482
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: building not practicing until he can test negative two times

483
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 1: in a row within the span of twenty four hours.

484
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 1: And I heard Howard and Jeremy talking about this this morning,

485
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:47,879
Speaker 1: and I didn't look it up myself. I didn't have

486
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 1: time this morning. But they said the fastest a vaccinated

487
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 1: player has come back from a positive test this season

488
00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:01,120
Speaker 1: is Ben Roethlisberger. It was eight days. He presumably went

489
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:04,640
Speaker 1: on the COVID reserve list today, probably tested positive yesterday.

490
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 1: That's six days till Monday. I don't know if he's

491
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: gonna make it. And you say, well, what's the big deal.

492
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,920
Speaker 1: The guy plays over eighty percent of the snaps. He

493
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: plays in what essentially is the Patriots based defense, which

494
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 1: is a big nickel look with three safeties on the field,

495
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: and he's one of those three. Picture pour your or

496
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 1: hide sitting down. It's exactly what you're looking at. It's

497
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,120
Speaker 1: a it's a critical loss for them. They've already lost

498
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: their nickel corner for the season, Jonathan Jones, and he's

499
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 1: been replaced in the lineup by Miles Bryant. But if

500
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:41,399
Speaker 1: they don't have Dugger, the whole the whole way they

501
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:45,320
Speaker 1: play defense has been compromised. So I'll say this, though,

502
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,359
Speaker 1: I have to do some shuffling. Yeah, it'll be interesting.

503
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: I think the Patriots will be will have a plan

504
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: to cover for that loss and hide whoever his replacement is,

505
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 1: or give him help or use him to help other

506
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: But even if you do that, there's a trickle down

507
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,720
Speaker 1: effect because now you're on your third nickel corner. I mean,

508
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: Cole Beasley could have a field day in that kind

509
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: of a scenario, Yes, he could. So be interesting to

510
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:11,159
Speaker 1: see where that goes between now and Monday. And obviously

511
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 1: we'll have a better look at that once we get

512
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: through the weekend to see if Kyle Dugger is still

513
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 1: on the COVID reserve list. It would be very interesting

514
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 1: to see how that plays out. We have to take

515
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: a break here because coming up next is ESPN Fantasy

516
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,000

00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 1: you guys are obviously working hard during the Thanksgiving Holiday

531
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,479
Speaker 1: with playing on Thanksgiving night and giving Bills fans much

532
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: to be thankful for. But good you're back in our

533
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 1: normal time slot. And as I always loved chatting all

534
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 1: things football, especially the daily fantasy and through the lens

535
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: of everything that fan Duel has to offer. Yeah, no kidding.

536
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: And every time I look, I get to your fantasy

537
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 1: lineup and I always start and there's always something that

538
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 1: was like, I'm like, what are you doing? And you

539
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 1: got your of all the quarterbacks in the league, all

540
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 1: of them like Aaron Rodgers, he's got some splaining to do, right,

541
00:29:54,640 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 1: you got Jimmy Garoppolo. That is the beauty of nasty football, right,

542
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 1: I do not see him? Yeah, I'm a complete novice,

543
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 1: so you got me with it. I know sixty six

544
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 1: hundred bucks is cheap, but Jimmy Garoppolo, where have we

545
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: gotten to have the Seahawks fallen that far? Well, the

546
00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 1: Seahawks are still a very poor past defense when you

547
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 1: look at the raw numbers in terms of how they

548
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 1: have performed this season. They've been a little bit better

549
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: the eye tests recently, but this is about the price,

550
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: which you mentioned, sixty six hundred dollars. And then if

551
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 1: you go back through Jimmy Garoppolo's recent games and how

552
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: he's performed been pretty darn impressive. You go back over

553
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 1: the past five weeks and Jimmy Garoppolo has two touchdowns

554
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 1: three hundred plus yards, two touchdowns three hundred plus yards,

555
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: two touchdowns nearly two hundred yards and completing nearly eighty

556
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 1: percent of his passes, two touchdowns two hundred or so

557
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: yards and completing nearly seventy five percent of his passes.

558
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 1: It's been a much more accurate player of late. Didn't

559
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 1: have a great week last week against the Minnesota Vikings,

560
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 1: but it is a good matchup. He's been efficient and

561
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: one thing you guys know about a Kyle Shanahan offense

562
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: is that the quarterback is going to be responsible for

563
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: putting the ball in this spot where playmakers can make

564
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 1: a play after the catch. Over each of the past

565
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 1: two years, they have led the league in terms of

566
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 1: the average yards after the catch per catch amongst wide receivers,

567
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 1: the yards after catch that basically, to make it a

568
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 1: little bit more simple, they're on pace to once again

569
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: do that this year. You put the ball in the

570
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 1: hands of a guy like Brandon Aiyuk or maybe George

571
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 1: Kittle gets more involved this week with no Deebo Samuel,

572
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: good things can happen, all right, So let's spin it

573
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: forward to the running backs. Antonio Gibson, who bit me

574
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: in the rear end last week and beat my team

575
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: with a giant performance on Monday night? Are you going

576
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 1: with a hot hand here? What's the logic? Well, there's

577
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: a few different pieces of information that are important here.

578
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: One and I talk about this on occasion. There's something

579
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 1: called the Monday Night Football discounts in daily Fantasy site

580
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: in pricing, because these prices were set prior to Monday

581
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 1: Night Football taking place. Well, then in that game, Antonio

582
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 1: Gibson plays really well, has seven catchers. That was good news.

583
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 1: Jady McKissick, their second back, got hurt too. He got

584
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: a concussion and as of right now, he has not

585
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 1: yet practiced this week. And you guys know that's a

586
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: quick turn for any player to go from a concussion

587
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 1: protocol late Monday night still not practicing as of Thursday afternoon.

588
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 1: I'd be a quick turnaround for JD McKissick. And then

589
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 1: you factor in that over the past three weeks, Antonio

590
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: Gibson has seventy two rushing attempts. That's twenty four per game.

591
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 1: That's a big number. In the NFL. We see guys

592
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 1: that get fifteen carriers in the game. We feel like

593
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: it's a lot. So the fact that Antonio Gibson it's

594
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 1: getting so much volume in a matchup and is not

595
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 1: necessarily scary. Right. The Greater's defense has been the times

596
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 1: better this year than people expected, but also not a

597
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 1: dominant force and just could be a good day for

598
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: Antonio Gibson, and I'll just take it right into the

599
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 1: next running back, by the way, is also in the

600
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 1: NFC East, so there are a couple of caveats here.

601
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 1: So I've got Boston Scott in there. It's a really

602
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 1: good match up against the Jets. For Philly. There are

603
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 1: a few factors. As we know, they have multiple injuries

604
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: in that backfield right now. Jordan Howard missed last week

605
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 1: due to a knee injury. Miles Sanders got banged up,

606
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 1: left that game because I'm an ankle injury. Howard, and

607
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: Boston Scott. We're actually absent from practice on Wednesday due

608
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: to a non COVID illness situation. So we gotta make

609
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 1: sure that A. Boston Scott plays and b This is

610
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 1: if you don't have Jordan Howard and Miles Sanders available,

611
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: Boston Scott would be the guy against the Jets. He's

612
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 1: priced at sixty six hundred dollars, which is too much

613
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 1: if he's sharing the work. But if he has the

614
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: job to himself, I think he's a very good value. Okay, Yeah,

615
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 1: and you move right along and that comes out to

616
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 1: Boston Scott for sixty six hundred, that's kind of a

617
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: no brainer, right. I Mean, that's a low price for

618
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: a guy who's got a chance to pop. If he's

619
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: the guy, If he's the guy, if he's the guy, Yeah,

620
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 1: if he's the guy, that's that's correct. And then also

621
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: in paying down at my quarterback in my two running

622
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: back spots, it allowed me to open up the wallet

623
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 1: at the wide receiver spot. I'm shopping at Tiffany so

624
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 1: to speak. Right, it's the holiday season, you get your wife,

625
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: you're Signiffican another something lovely during this time of the year,

626
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,320
Speaker 1: And in my case, it's Cooper Cup, Tyree Hilled, and

627
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson Inside my daily fantasy lineup in week thirteen,

628
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 1: three of the highest priced wide receivers on the board,

629
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 1: all at at least eight thousand dollars. I'm not sure

630
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: they need to explain why I'm picking those players for

631
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 1: three of the best wideouts in the NFL. I love

632
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,720
Speaker 1: the match up, especially for Cooper Cup and Justin Jefferson.

633
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,839
Speaker 1: A little bit more fear that Denver secondary is pretty good.

634
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 1: Pat thirteen the second just won the NFC excuse me,

635
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 1: the AFC Rookie of the Week, I believe the Rookie

636
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 1: of the month as well well on defense could be

637
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: I got to check the facts there one more time,

638
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 1: but definitely the Rookie of the week, our defensive player

639
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,399
Speaker 1: of the week. He's been exceptional for Denver. But still

640
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 1: the point is I liked the matches for Cooper Cup

641
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: and Justin Jefferson especially, and then Tyreek Hill in that

642
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 1: Chief's offense, he's by far the number one wide receiver.

643
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 1: Like they've been trying to find a number two guy,

644
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: whether it's Josh Gordon, Michoel Hardman to mar Becas Robinson

645
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: Byron Pringle. But you know, every single week when you're

646
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 1: playing Kansas City, two guys you gotta find a way

647
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: to slow down eighty seven and ten Travis Kelsey and

648
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 1: Tyree Hill most weeks. Most weeks, and the Bills obviously

649
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,759
Speaker 1: were the exception in this regard. Most week's teams have

650
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 1: no way to slow down those two star players. And

651
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 1: then at tight end, you're going with a guy who

652
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,160
Speaker 1: has kind of emerged in the Pittsburgh offensive lad he

653
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 1: has That's right, it's Pat friar Muth, their second round

654
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,240
Speaker 1: pick at a Penn State guy who just keeps scoring

655
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 1: touchdowns for them. And Eric Ebron is now going to

656
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 1: miss some time. And if you look at the games

657
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 1: in which Pat friar Muth has been on the field

658
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,279
Speaker 1: without Eric Ebron, he tends to be a much steadier play,

659
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 1: much higher floor and fantasy football the weeks in which

660
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 1: you have Eric Ebron on the field, a little bit

661
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 1: hard for him to find the work that makes him

662
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 1: a worthwhile investment, either in daily or season long play.

663
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 1: He's a big body. I know. The Stealer's offense is

664
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 1: scary right now, right, I mean, I'm not sure you

665
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 1: want too much of that Steeler's offense. But the way

666
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,359
Speaker 1: that they have been playing, I gotta tell you, though,

667
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 1: I wonder if this is a gut check week for Pittsburgh.

668
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 1: We've seen a lot of Pittsburgh Steelers alumni saying a

669
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 1: lot of things this week. My own colleague Ryan Clark

670
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,279
Speaker 1: James Harrison echoedis sent to midst Guys are coming out

671
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 1: of the woodwork that are not in the media, who

672
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: are sharing their opinions, and it feels like this is

673
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 1: a week we're gonna learn a lot about this Steelers team.

674
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 1: Are they gritty and tough and a kind of team

675
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: that has largely been what you've seen from Mike Tomlin

676
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: year after year after year of his first fourteen coaching seasons.

677
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 1: Or is this the turning point? Is this the point

678
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 1: where the Steelers are more focused on life beyond twenty

679
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 1: twenty one with a new quarterback eventually an a youth movement.

680
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 1: Hopefully this Sunday, the Steelers offense is good enough to

681
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 1: make Pat Fireman a tayoff. And then you got the

682
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 1: flex position where you went to the oak the La

683
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,799
Speaker 1: Las Vegas Raiders against the Washington Redskins. Hunter renfroze your

684
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 1: flex guy at sixty four hundred bucks. Yeah, he's been

685
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: really good this year, right, Hunter Renfro has probably been

686
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 1: the most consistent pass catcher in Las Vegas this entire season,

687
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,279
Speaker 1: like that includes Darren Waller. He just keeps finding a

688
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 1: way to five more catches per game. When you don't

689
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 1: get with Hunter Renfro is a ton of touchdown equity.

690
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 1: He has just he has four touchdowns this season, which

691
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 1: isn't terrible, but he's not the same touchdown threat as

692
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 1: the other three wide receivers that I mentioned. But he

693
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,400
Speaker 1: has scored now in back to back games. That excuse me.

694
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: He has scored in two of his past four games.

695
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: Excuse me. So Hunter Renfro, though, still just like such

696
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,880
Speaker 1: a floor every single week. If you look at his

697
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,760
Speaker 1: game log this year, he has at least five catches

698
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 1: in nine of his eleven eleven games played and he

699
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 1: has at least six catches in seven of his eleven

700
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 1: games played this year. So a guy that tends to

701
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 1: see a pretty significant target chair for the Las Vegas Raiders,

702
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 1: a guy who has clearly earned the trust of Derek

703
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 1: Carr and feels to me, looka you know, this matchup

704
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: on Sunday probably looks a little bit less favorable than

705
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:51,879
Speaker 1: it did about a month ago when Washington couldn't play

706
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: any defense. But still I think this is a good

707
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 1: enough matchup that I would squeeze Hunter Renfro into your

708
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 1: lineup if you can make a room for and then

709
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,359
Speaker 1: and then you go bargain base spent with defense here

710
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 1: and a month ago people might think you were crazy

711
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 1: going with the Chiefs, but they are playing better ball Ingram.

712
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,879
Speaker 1: You know, the acquisition acquisition of Ingram has allowed Chris

713
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: Jones to move back inside and they seem to be

714
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,879
Speaker 1: a more effective unit overall. Yeah, they've been much better

715
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: over the past four games that they have played. And

716
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:21,840
Speaker 1: you know, I always tell you guys on defense and

717
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 1: daily Fantasy, sometimes they're kind of just hunting. So my

718
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,800
Speaker 1: goal was to not spend too much money on my defense.

719
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 1: But this is one where I think that you know,

720
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 1: the Chiefs defense has played well enough to merits and consideration,

721
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,240
Speaker 1: and then you got a factor in who they're playing.

722
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,520
Speaker 1: And the Broncos have what looks like one of the

723
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,839
Speaker 1: best wide receiver trios on paper in the NFL, right,

724
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: I mean Cortland, Sutton, Jerry Judy, Tim Patrick. Two of

725
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 1: those guys recently got paid, and yet they barely make

726
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 1: an impact statistically weekend and week out in terms of

727
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 1: you know, catches, yards after the catch. A lot of

728
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 1: the offense in Denver is predicated upon the ground, and

729
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,400
Speaker 1: they may not have Melvin Gordon on Monday on Sunday night,

730
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 1: so all those things can Because the Chiefs, being my

731
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: pick here, coming out there by there should be very fresh.

732
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 1: We'll see whether they can build off the momentum they

733
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 1: had prior to that by and I know, you don't

734
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 1: start your lineups with the defense. Picking the defense is

735
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 1: kind of like what do you have left and what

736
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: you can you can afford defensively? Maybe if even if

737
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 1: you're picking the Chiefs, but is there any concern on

738
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 1: your part? You got the Chiefs going into Denver and

739
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: now in the last three or four weeks, the Chiefs

740
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 1: offense is kind of remembered what it is, right, so

741
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 1: now they're starting to hang it on people. Any concern that,

742
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 1: like the Broncos say, listen, we got to keep up

743
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 1: with these guys and we're gonna We're gonna do it

744
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,400
Speaker 1: and and really put their defense back, maybe maybe take

745
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 1: their defense to step take a step back because of it.

746
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,360
Speaker 1: It could be it could be Stephen, You're right, you

747
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: know this the Chiefs offense though, like maybe I'm wrong here.

748
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: I want to see it a couple more times before

749
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: I trusted implicitly that it is the same group that

750
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 1: it was in previous years. And you know, people talked

751
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,240
Speaker 1: about the game plan that was masterful to both Leslie

752
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,880
Speaker 1: Frazier and Sean McDermott helped put together when the Bills

753
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 1: played against the Chiefs earlier this season, and a lot

754
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 1: of it was I'm not mistaken, and I want to

755
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 1: say this was like the Bills called one litz the

756
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,839
Speaker 1: entire game, and it was basically just rush for get

757
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 1: home with four as much as you can and then

758
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,320
Speaker 1: play coverage in the back end. And that's limited the

759
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 1: Chiefs ability to be as explosive on offense, which has

760
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 1: limited the number of shootouts they're playing in. So I

761
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 1: would say though that more than anything with defense and

762
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 1: daily fantasy, Mike's general strategy is like, man, don't over

763
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 1: think it too much, Like put it in a defense

764
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,400
Speaker 1: that's reasonably priced and you're hoping for upside more than

765
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 1: trying to avoid downside. Gotcha, we'd be remiss if we

766
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 1: did not ask you about the big Monday night tilt

767
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: that will be on your fair network come Monday night.

768
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:43,840
Speaker 1: So you know, on paper, these teams look pretty comparable.

769
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 1: The numbers are very close, just statistically speaking, all the

770
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:51,360
Speaker 1: way up to takeaways and turnover margin and offense defense

771
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: even both special teams units are very very good. If

772
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 1: there's one thing that is different about them, the Patriots

773
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:00,080
Speaker 1: are playing some of their best football right now. The

774
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 1: Bills are still inconsistent. They've traded wins for losses each

775
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: of the last seven weeks. So how do you see

776
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 1: this one shaking out Monday night? Well, it should be,

777
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 1: first of all, an unbelievable atmosphere. Like I know, there

778
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 1: are a lot of great games in the NFL, but

779
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,879
Speaker 1: this to me has you know, one of the great

780
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 1: atmospheres in terms of any game I can think of

781
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:21,440
Speaker 1: off the top of my head for this season. So

782
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 1: it's great to see two teams playing in a high stakes,

783
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 1: you know AFC East matchup in December. That to me

784
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 1: is just fun. It looks like there's gonna be you know,

785
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,600
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Orchard Park weather in December, right, could

786
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:34,839
Speaker 1: be cold, could be windy, could be a little bit

787
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:36,839
Speaker 1: of snow earlier in the day, could be some rain.

788
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,880
Speaker 1: We'll see. Yeah, the Patriots, I think they're probably mindset

789
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: would be to try to replicate, but the Colts did

790
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:44,960
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago off a couple of weeks

791
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,759
Speaker 1: ago offensively because they do run the football very effectively,

792
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,880
Speaker 1: and that's not something the Saints were able to do

793
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,800
Speaker 1: last week. But they also were a patch work offensive

794
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 1: line with Tony Jones Junior behind them, not Alvin Kamara

795
00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: for the Bills, I think the big question to me is,

796
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,919
Speaker 1: you know, like the trade Avious White injury is, we've

797
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:04,840
Speaker 1: never seen them without him, right, I mean, he's basically

798
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: been on the field every snap since he got drafted.

799
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: What does it look like defensively without him? It may

800
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:12,440
Speaker 1: not be the perfect night to be throwing the football

801
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,279
Speaker 1: around much, but these are two teams that I think,

802
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 1: and famous last words here are very evenly matched. You

803
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: mentioned Brownie, just like how the number suggests there two

804
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 1: teams that are really comparable. So my feeling is that, well,

805
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,720
Speaker 1: Tuesday Morning takes are probably going to be whoever wins

806
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,879
Speaker 1: this game is all of a sudden the clearcut best

807
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: team in the AFC East. And that would be a

808
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 1: reasonable valid argument if this game has decided about like,

809
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 1: you know, twenty points or something like that. But if

810
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,400
Speaker 1: this game is close, if it's more like a one

811
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 1: score game, which I could certainly see, my feeling is

812
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 1: that you've got two teams that basically every piece of

813
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,759
Speaker 1: the puzzle that you need to make it to the

814
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: postseason and be a factor. I think this is one

815
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 1: of those games though, that if you can't get up

816
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: for it, it's more about you than it is your

817
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: interest in either the Patriots or the Bills. Yeah sounds good, Field,

818
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,960

820

Speaker 1: more of your phone calls coming on next. Here on

824
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:16,280
Speaker 1: One Bill's Live, presented by Klaud of Health, It's Buffalo

825
00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:31,240
Speaker 1: Bills Radio. Falo Bills would like to thank this week's

826
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:36,640
Speaker 1: game spotsor ECMC bringing hope and healing to Western New York.

827
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna go right back to the phones as we

828
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 1: are asking you today what's the biggest storyline ahead of

829
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: Monday Night's game against the Patriots. And we begin with

830
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 1: Bob and Amherst. Bob, what do you have for us?

831
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:53,799
Speaker 1: You're on One Bills Live. Heay, thanks for taking my call. Sure,

832
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 1: I have a comment about the game on Monday, but

833
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 1: first I just wanted you know that and back that

834
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: Raiders game was great memories. But I remember another cold

835
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,759
Speaker 1: game and it was the first home playoff game that

836
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 1: we had in a long time, and it was against

837
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,439
Speaker 1: the Houston Oilers and it was on New Year's Day

838
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 1: and it was pretty cold that day, I remember, but

839
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 1: it was Sonny Jerry Glandville had that long, dark black

840
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:26,839
Speaker 1: coat on and I remember that that was pretty much

841
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 1: Steve's coming out. I think he recovered a fumble on

842
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 1: a punt return or a kick return. I can't remember exactly.

843
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:38,480
Speaker 1: Maybe Steve would remember, but I remember that was a

844
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:40,439
Speaker 1: cold game, and it was a lot of fun because

845
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 1: it was our first playoff game in a long time. Yeah,

846
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 1: first home playoff game in what was then rich Stadium. Yeah,

847
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 1: it's first first home playoff game since the rock Pile.

848
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,879
Speaker 1: So yeah, that was a lot of fun. Yeah. Yeah.

849
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,799
Speaker 1: So here's my take on the game. I'm going back

850
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:06,000
Speaker 1: to the Pittsburgh game when Natt hat got a punt blot,

851
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,480
Speaker 1: and I think Belichick is going to have that in

852
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 1: his repertoire, and I think if we can avoid getting

853
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,239
Speaker 1: a punt blot on Monday night, I think we got

854
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:18,719
Speaker 1: a good chance of winning that game. Okay, fair enough,

855
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 1: Thanks for the call, Bob, We appreciate it. We will

856
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,840
Speaker 1: move along here. In a second. I gotta say I

857
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 1: am a little concerned about special teams because the Patriots

858
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 1: have had a couple of big plays on special teams

859
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: this year. More often than not, they've won the hidden

860
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 1: yardage battle with superior drive starts for their offense, and

861
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:39,400
Speaker 1: their coverage units have handed poor drive starts to their opponents.

862
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,759
Speaker 1: And you have to believe they're gonna be dead set

863
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,920
Speaker 1: on doing that against this Bill's offense. They'd rather have

864
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 1: Josh Allen and company have to march eighty five yards

865
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:54,120
Speaker 1: on twelve plays than eight plays in fifty five yards.

866
00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:57,319
Speaker 1: So yeah, they're gonna be dead set on doing that. Yeah,

867
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 1: they've been very good at that event. Then they hit.

868
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:02,319
Speaker 1: Patriots are good because they hit on all cylinders. They

869
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: play the yardage game, in fuel position game extremely well,

870
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:09,399
Speaker 1: and they also try to catch you at something where

871
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:14,439
Speaker 1: you're unaware of it their own fake punt as well

872
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 1: as taking advantage in getting a punt block. Matt Hawk

873
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: has a slow getoff time and his punts you know that.

874
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:24,120
Speaker 1: They know that, and they've got a plan for that.

875
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 1: They've seen the Bills have a punt blocked already this season,

876
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,959
Speaker 1: and you know they want to replicate it. Um, it'll

877
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 1: be interesting to see how that goes. Yeah, back to

878
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:36,759
Speaker 1: the fall into Kevin in Hamburg, Kevin got how do

879
00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:41,879
Speaker 1: I mean? The biggest storyline is, and it's gonna sound

880
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:43,840
Speaker 1: more like a good question, is how are the Bills

881
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,320
Speaker 1: going to do in another game against a good team,

882
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 1: Because the last few times they played good teams, I

883
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:54,280
Speaker 1: mean Chiefs when we beat them, they were downward Titans

884
00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 1: were rocking. We only be lost because of that, then

885
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,360
Speaker 1: a couple of the loss of Jacksonville, but they gave anyway.

886
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:02,840
Speaker 1: And then we played the Cults who were five hundred,

887
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,240
Speaker 1: and they beat us like they were the Green Bay Packers.

888
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 1: You know, we've not done good against a couple of

889
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,280
Speaker 1: good teams. Has a couple of good teams we've played

890
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 1: with five hundred records a better or we be the

891
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 1: loss who got stampeded. So I think that's you and

892
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,839
Speaker 1: the cheat and the papers stunk too before, but now

893
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 1: they're getting good and we're still of that. Oh I

894
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 1: don't know, Mark, right right? Yeah, Bill, the Bills have

895
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,200
Speaker 1: been very up and down. Kevin, you're one hundred percent

896
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:32,640
Speaker 1: right on that. As we mentioned earlier, they've traded wins

897
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,400
Speaker 1: for losses in each of their last seven games, and

898
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:38,839
Speaker 1: josh Eda coming out of the Saints game, look, we're

899
00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:40,800
Speaker 1: glad we got this win here, but it's time to

900
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 1: start stacking wins now like it hasn't happened in two months. Yeah,

901
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 1: they's time to win back to back games and keep

902
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 1: it rolling. Yeah, that's gonna be I think critical. This

903
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:52,920
Speaker 1: is a really good football team coming in and it

904
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,759
Speaker 1: is a real test for Buffalo to play well against them.

905
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:58,920
Speaker 1: If the Bills play their best, they will beat anybody.

906
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:04,800
Speaker 1: But as we've seen, that has been the problem. The

907
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 1: overriding characteristic of this team this season is that it

908
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:10,879
Speaker 1: has been inconsistent. One week they will play very well

909
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 1: and score forty points, and then the next week they

910
00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 1: don't and they don't get in. They don't, you know,

911
00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:18,480
Speaker 1: get in that neighborhood. I mean, you look at you know,

912
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:22,920
Speaker 1: the way the season's gone. They scored sixteen thirty five,

913
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:26,399
Speaker 1: forty three, thirty eight, thirty one, twenty six, sixty five,

914
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 1: fifteen thirty one. I mean he's last games twenty six

915
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:31,839
Speaker 1: points and then six points, then forty five points, then

916
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 1: fifteen points, then back to thirty one points. It has

917
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:38,200
Speaker 1: been a roller coaster of inconsistency, and that's been the

918
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:41,080
Speaker 1: characteristic of the season, and that's what really has to change.

919
00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:45,080
Speaker 1: You'd like to think they are good and they have

920
00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,400
Speaker 1: the players that that can play well, but you got

921
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,120
Speaker 1: to show up every week and you've got to do

922
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 1: that and put it together consistently. Otherwise, what are you doing?

923
00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:56,240
Speaker 1: Maybe in this game more than any other this entire season,

924
00:48:56,280 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: because if you do not play consistent, ephishing football against

925
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:04,960
Speaker 1: the Patriots team that's doing it better than anybody else

926
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:06,640
Speaker 1: right now, you are not going to come out on

927
00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,200
Speaker 1: the right end on the scoreboard. You have to play

928
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 1: mistake free football, not at the expensive being aggressive or

929
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:18,840
Speaker 1: you know, attacking when you have an opportunity. You know,

930
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 1: you don't play passive, you don't play conservative, but you

931
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:25,360
Speaker 1: have to do your best to not make mistakes that

932
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:27,719
Speaker 1: are going to absolutely kill you against this team. I

933
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 1: think this isn't a game where offensively, I think I'm

934
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 1: you know, I'm tempted to have you know, the ball

935
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 1: come out fast, Just get out of Josh's hand, don't

936
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,200
Speaker 1: give Matt Judon a chance to get around the corner.

937
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:42,560
Speaker 1: Don't ask your offensive line to hold up like it

938
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:45,759
Speaker 1: you know, as you know, don't maximize that. Just take

939
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:48,359
Speaker 1: the duke, play your game. Ask your quarterback to play

940
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,000
Speaker 1: like the Patriots quarterback does. Just get the ball out,

941
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 1: take the easy completion and move it on down the line,

942
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:56,240
Speaker 1: and then force them to do the same against your defense.

943
00:49:57,880 --> 00:49:59,520
Speaker 1: You've got to you've got to keep a lid on

944
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 1: big play and you've got to have ball security. Um,

945
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,960
Speaker 1: how frustrating will it be when you know, to be

946
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,239
Speaker 1: the guy on the Bills or the Patriots, to be

947
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,719
Speaker 1: the guy that makes that one mistake, that that is

948
00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 1: the difference in the game, and that this is a

949
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,000
Speaker 1: game between two good teams, you know what. You feel

950
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,279
Speaker 1: like it's going to be a one score game all

951
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:24,880
Speaker 1: the way through, and I'm thinking, yeah, I think it

952
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,480
Speaker 1: might be one of those games first team to twenty wins,

953
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:32,359
Speaker 1: you know, um, that kind of game, because I think

954
00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,239
Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard to move the football with the

955
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 1: conditions and the defenses that are involved in this game,

956
00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:42,800
Speaker 1: top two defenses and points allowed. I mean, Patriots fifteen

957
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:45,839
Speaker 1: point eighty game, Bill sixteen and a half a game, right,

958
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:48,920
Speaker 1: I gotta hold it down if you can little, if

959
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,840
Speaker 1: you if you can score twenty points, man, you're ahead

960
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:54,920
Speaker 1: of the game. I think it might be enough, right exactly,

961
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:56,799
Speaker 1: I think. And the Patriots are built that way. They're

962
00:50:57,239 --> 00:50:59,840
Speaker 1: you know, they want a fourteen seventeen game, a seventeen

963
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:03,920
Speaker 1: twenty game, a ten to fourteen game. Grind it out.

964
00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,880
Speaker 1: They grind it out, and more often than not, teams

965
00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:10,160
Speaker 1: make those make that mistake or a couple of mistakes,

966
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 1: like look at the Tennessee game last week. Very close

967
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: game until Tennessee started coughing it up late and it

968
00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:17,759
Speaker 1: got out of hand. Yeah, we have to take a

969
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:19,960
Speaker 1: break here. When we come back, we'll get to more

970
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:22,759
Speaker 1: of your phone calls. We also have Mario Addison set

971
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 1: to join us fresh off the practice field, and hopefully

972
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,840
Speaker 1: we hear Josh Allen's press conference live here on the

973
00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:33,359
Speaker 1: air as he addresses the media when practice concludes. All

974
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:35,160
Speaker 1: of that coming your way. An hour number two of

975
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:37,880
Speaker 1: One Bills Live presented by Kalida Health. It's Buffalo Bill's

976
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:58,560
Speaker 1: radio at a Steve Tasker who has been all over

977
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:01,320
Speaker 1: the field unique was kind of a dual role player

978
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:07,560
Speaker 1: for you, Steve a blimp. We're not even in the

979
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:14,799
Speaker 1: straded fear of normalcy here enough. Our number two here

980
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:17,279
Speaker 1: on a Thursday, Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you. One

981
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,920
Speaker 1: Bills Live is the show. The Bills are the subject,

982
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 1: and we're talking with you today about the biggest storyline

983
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 1: ahead of Monday Night's game against the Patriots. I think

984
00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 1: it could be the availability of Kyle Dugger, who went

985
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:33,480
Speaker 1: on the COVID reserve list. Plays a ton of snaps

986
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:35,880
Speaker 1: for that Patriots defense. But we'll see how it all

987
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,440
Speaker 1: shakes out. It's still possible he could be available for

988
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 1: the game, although I think it's somewhat unlikely judging by

989
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 1: some of the other guys that were vaccinated. Players that

990
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 1: went on COVID. Ben Roethlisberger took him eight days to

991
00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:49,720
Speaker 1: get back, and he's been one of the fastest returns

992
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:52,920
Speaker 1: all seasons, so certainly something to keep an eye on.

993
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 1: Some people have mentioned the weather. There's some chance of

994
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 1: lake effects snow showers. Now some of the models are showing,

995
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:02,400
Speaker 1: so well, see what that brings. The thing about it, too,

996
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:06,040
Speaker 1: is that this he's not going to be able to

997
00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:09,480
Speaker 1: practice that The COVID list is different. I said it

998
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:13,080
Speaker 1: about Spencer Brown, star Letul. They're out of the building,

999
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:16,840
Speaker 1: so it's not like they I mean, they're in virtual

1000
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 1: meetings and that kind of thing. But man, oh man,

1001
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:23,359
Speaker 1: that's a that's a crusher for a guy's psych being

1002
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:27,320
Speaker 1: out and completely away as opposed to being in the building,

1003
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,279
Speaker 1: not like with an ankle injury or something like that.

1004
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:32,800
Speaker 1: It's it's a very very different environment to try and

1005
00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:35,719
Speaker 1: get ready to play in. Before we get back to

1006
00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:37,880
Speaker 1: the phones, we did want to pass along a comment

1007
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:42,840
Speaker 1: from head coach Sean McDermott. As we know, the Bills

1008
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,920
Speaker 1: have had their share of issues with physical rushing attacks.

1009
00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:52,279
Speaker 1: The Colts the most recent example of that, although there

1010
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,880
Speaker 1: have been some others through the course of the season,

1011
00:53:55,960 --> 00:54:01,120
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans being another example. The Paytriots have a darn

1012
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 1: good run game. And as we heard Matt Barnhardt, who

1013
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:04,880
Speaker 1: we had on the show earlier this week from the

1014
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:10,400
Speaker 1: New England Sports Network, they run hard. Romandre Stevenson, Damian Harris,

1015
00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:13,279
Speaker 1: both guys run real hard. They got a good line

1016
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:16,080
Speaker 1: in front of him. So here is coach McDermott on

1017
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:21,000
Speaker 1: the Patriots physical run game. Well, they're physical. Well, I

1018
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:23,239
Speaker 1: think you know that. That's a big part of it.

1019
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,680
Speaker 1: So you know, moving people off a lot of scrimmage there,

1020
00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:32,680
Speaker 1: beating people up by how they play, and they're winning

1021
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:37,040
Speaker 1: that lot of scrimmage battle. So and then that opens

1022
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 1: up the passing game down the field for the quarterbacks.

1023
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:44,359
Speaker 1: So they got a real good thing going, all right.

1024
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 1: So that's the story there. M looks like much of

1025
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,560
Speaker 1: what they dealt with in previous weeks against the Colts

1026
00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:53,160
Speaker 1: and the Titans, respectively. So I'm gonna have to bring

1027
00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:55,600
Speaker 1: it on defense obviously, if star Latoula is back in

1028
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:57,960
Speaker 1: the fold. That would be an enormous help. Yeah, and

1029
00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:02,000
Speaker 1: I get yeah, good players make better, it's obvious. I

1030
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:04,640
Speaker 1: think it's more about attitude for Buffalo, and I think

1031
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 1: it was proven in the weeks between the Jacksonville and

1032
00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,359
Speaker 1: Jet game. You know where they where they I don't

1033
00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:14,439
Speaker 1: know if it's Jacksonville, I can't remember. If they played

1034
00:55:14,520 --> 00:55:17,920
Speaker 1: Jacksonville and then the Jet. Right, the difference was marked.

1035
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:20,400
Speaker 1: Those were two teams. I'm neither one of them is

1036
00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 1: going to go to the playoffs, neither one's gonna have

1037
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:24,479
Speaker 1: a winning record. But the difference in those two teams

1038
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:27,120
Speaker 1: in the way the Bills played in those games, mostly

1039
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:29,880
Speaker 1: for me, was between their ears. It was the attitude

1040
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:31,840
Speaker 1: they played with, in the physicality they brought with, and

1041
00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:33,960
Speaker 1: that's what brings it. And it's the attitude that you

1042
00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:37,719
Speaker 1: bring in to get yourself to play physically has as

1043
00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 1: much to do with the bodies on the field. And

1044
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:42,560
Speaker 1: that's you know, you see that weekend week out in

1045
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,200
Speaker 1: the NFL, and we've seen it illustrated by the inconsistency

1046
00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:48,360
Speaker 1: of this team where you know, one week they weren't

1047
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:51,120
Speaker 1: there and the next week, wow, Yeah, and it makes

1048
00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:54,239
Speaker 1: a difference. So I'm while Starlotule is gonna help, and

1049
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:57,399
Speaker 1: Spencer Brown's gonna help, and Feliciano's gonna help because they're

1050
00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:02,680
Speaker 1: good players who fully they bring an attitude that permeates

1051
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,880
Speaker 1: everybody because that's you gotta turn it up, that's how

1052
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:07,960
Speaker 1: you get there. You don't get pumped up for this one.

1053
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:09,480
Speaker 1: I don't know what to tell you. Yeah, you're you're

1054
00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:13,680
Speaker 1: You need to if you If you don't, you're done.

1055
00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 1: Let's go back to the phones. We go to Less

1056
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:18,960
Speaker 1: in Buffalo. Next Less, Whoop, Sorry, I put you on there?

1057
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:20,480
Speaker 1: We go Less. What do you got for us? You're

1058
00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:24,560
Speaker 1: on one Bill's life, Hi, Chris, Hi, Steve. I was

1059
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:29,279
Speaker 1: taking and looking back at the old teams like we

1060
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:34,800
Speaker 1: need a players like big Elvin Hansberg, Big Washington and

1061
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:38,400
Speaker 1: the players like uh big Sam Mandels coming off the

1062
00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:42,160
Speaker 1: bench ready to play, and the coach need to teach

1063
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:46,920
Speaker 1: Big six a dummy Doyle six, a spensive brow. They

1064
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:52,879
Speaker 1: catch the ball for mismatches in the renslow. Okay, um, yeah,

1065
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:55,600
Speaker 1: I mean I can listen to that first. In the

1066
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:57,479
Speaker 1: first part of what he said, he wants big boys

1067
00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,840
Speaker 1: on the defensive lines that we need people like Ted Washington,

1068
00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:03,080
Speaker 1: And I gotta tell you right now, the defensive tackle

1069
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:05,520
Speaker 1: at Georgia. The kid's name escapes me. I think his

1070
00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:09,440
Speaker 1: last name is Jones. That kid is us six eight

1071
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:13,120
Speaker 1: six eight or six six three, like fifty plus. I

1072
00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,239
Speaker 1: mean he's huge and he can run. Yeah, he's a

1073
00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:17,480
Speaker 1: good athlete. It's in That's the thing that sets those

1074
00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:21,240
Speaker 1: guys up. He's like, Hellodi, not a there's plus. There's

1075
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 1: a lot of there's a lot of big people in

1076
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:25,400
Speaker 1: the world, but not all of them can you know,

1077
00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:30,080
Speaker 1: move like these guys can move. So yeah, Jordan Davis,

1078
00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:32,120
Speaker 1: I think he's the kid. Yeah, that's yeah that I've

1079
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 1: heard about him too. I'll bet he's the top five

1080
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,760
Speaker 1: pick in the draft. Yeah, you're gonna have to move

1081
00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:41,640
Speaker 1: up to get that guy. Yeah, he's six six three fifty.

1082
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 1: He's a general mother of pearl. You just hear that.

1083
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 1: See the draft order where the Jets have back to

1084
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,160
Speaker 1: back picks right behind front of the Giants that have

1085
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:51,160
Speaker 1: back because Seattle is right blowing chunks up there in

1086
00:57:51,160 --> 00:57:53,800
Speaker 1: the NFC, and the Rams don't have a pick until

1087
00:57:53,840 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 1: one hundred and one. Go get him. Let's go back

1088
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:03,520
Speaker 1: to the phones. And we go to Anne and Amherst

1089
00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:04,760
Speaker 1: and what do you have for us? You're on one

1090
00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:08,800
Speaker 1: Bill's Live. Hi, thanks very much. Sure, I've really enjoyed

1091
00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:12,240
Speaker 1: listening to your explanations and viewpoints. A couple of things.

1092
00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:15,920
Speaker 1: I wanted to say that how much we were, how

1093
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:20,720
Speaker 1: fortunate we are to have our Brandon and McDermott and

1094
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:24,800
Speaker 1: Leslie and Brian who should have been hired away from

1095
00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:27,960
Speaker 1: most other teams were idiots not to take it, not

1096
00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:32,320
Speaker 1: to get them this past year. And secondly, I wanted

1097
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:37,640
Speaker 1: to say I've enjoyed what tasker has You so deserve

1098
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,800
Speaker 1: to be in that Hall of fame. It was so astonishing.

1099
00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 1: You look like such a choir boy, and you would

1100
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 1: go down and you would just smashing those players and

1101
00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:50,280
Speaker 1: it would just demolish them, and it would just it

1102
00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,880
Speaker 1: just and learnedly. You was so intelligent to realize how

1103
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:58,360
Speaker 1: important it is to have this special team play. It's

1104
00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:00,760
Speaker 1: like a third part of golf. You you don't you

1105
00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:03,840
Speaker 1: need you need all three parts of golf. We need

1106
00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:07,200
Speaker 1: special teams. Yeah, and thank you so much, thank you,

1107
00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:09,280
Speaker 1: I appreciate you, thank you for your kind words. That's

1108
00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:14,320
Speaker 1: chore boy, that's not might be that a little bit.

1109
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:19,720
Speaker 1: That's the way, I mean a Sports Illustrated article. And

1110
00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:22,160
Speaker 1: you know, it's not surprising that mar felt that way

1111
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:25,000
Speaker 1: because he was a former special teams coach before he

1112
00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 1: became a head coach, so he kind of knew that

1113
00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:29,640
Speaker 1: side of the game pretty intimate he became a head coach.

1114
00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:32,800
Speaker 1: The Bills aren't really fortunate to still have Leslie Fraser

1115
00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 1: and Brian Dabo here after the year they put together

1116
00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:39,040
Speaker 1: last year was it's unpreced In fact, I go back

1117
00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:43,000
Speaker 1: and look, it's unprecedented in my mind that a team

1118
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:45,680
Speaker 1: that had the kind of year the Bills had last

1119
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,720
Speaker 1: year to have the coordinators be that much a part

1120
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:51,000
Speaker 1: of the success and not be hired away in the

1121
00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:56,440
Speaker 1: hiring cycle. I think it's pretty strange, pretty strange. So

1122
00:59:56,560 --> 01:00:01,280
Speaker 1: I'm um, the Bills are lucky, you know. I feel

1123
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,520
Speaker 1: bad for Leslie Fraser and Brian Dabo, who probably do

1124
01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:05,040
Speaker 1: have that. I mean, they want to be head coach

1125
01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:10,200
Speaker 1: and didn't get the opportunity last time. And hopefully the

1126
01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 1: shine will wear off them. Nobody will interview him this

1127
01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:15,120
Speaker 1: next round. I don't know, But even so, the Bills

1128
01:00:15,160 --> 01:00:18,080
Speaker 1: are feel bad for them. They're unquestionably playing with house money,

1129
01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:21,520
Speaker 1: there's no doubt about that. Having the coordinators still in

1130
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:23,640
Speaker 1: the fold here in twenty twenty one, we have to

1131
01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:26,160
Speaker 1: take a break here. When we come back, we hope

1132
01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:30,040
Speaker 1: we can connect with Mario Addison fresh off the practice field.

1133
01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:31,880
Speaker 1: We'll try to do that when we return here. On

1134
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,800
Speaker 1: One Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health, it's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

1135
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:48,760
Speaker 1: I love that One Bills Live. We're gonna shift gears

1136
01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:51,800
Speaker 1: here and go to Josh Allen, who is addressing the

1137
01:00:51,880 --> 01:01:00,160
Speaker 1: media after practice right now between blizzard or beautiful beautiful. Um,

1138
01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 1: but that's you know, that's the You gotta play the

1139
01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:07,040
Speaker 1: elements when you're playing Buffalo too. And I said this

1140
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:10,840
Speaker 1: a few weeks back my my college coach. So yeah,

1141
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:12,280
Speaker 1: you fee want to win in the North Atlantic, you

1142
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:14,840
Speaker 1: better train in the North Atlantic. So um, it's good

1143
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:18,200
Speaker 1: that we get to have it here. And whatever the

1144
01:01:18,320 --> 01:01:20,880
Speaker 1: weather hasn't store for us, we'll, uh, we'll have to

1145
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:23,000
Speaker 1: adjust and find out. But so does the other team.

1146
01:01:29,240 --> 01:01:35,040
Speaker 1: No comment, Uh, yeah, no comment. I want to answer

1147
01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:44,400
Speaker 1: that one think you know, you know immediately and you know,

1148
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 1: what's your fucking house successfully. I mean, he's been playing fantastic. Um,

1149
01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:51,400
Speaker 1: you look at what he's done and even in college

1150
01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:54,560
Speaker 1: coming to the league, Uh, completing the ball at a

1151
01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:58,440
Speaker 1: very very high rate, being smart with the football. Um,

1152
01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:01,720
Speaker 1: you know, he's you know, he's a big reason why

1153
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:04,880
Speaker 1: they've won so many in a row. UM. And unfortunately

1154
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:07,880
Speaker 1: I played the defense and uh that that's that's its

1155
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:10,520
Speaker 1: own challenge because they've got some really really good dudes.

1156
01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,520
Speaker 1: You look at the corner position, Mills and Jackson, and

1157
01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,800
Speaker 1: Jackson's having another great year. Uh. They got some guys

1158
01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:19,520
Speaker 1: that can get after the quarterback, High Tower and Jude

1159
01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:22,440
Speaker 1: On and a few other guys. Um, and they are

1160
01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:25,640
Speaker 1: very versatile, they're smart players. And mccordy hopefully he's been

1161
01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:27,720
Speaker 1: in the league for a long time. He's extremely smart,

1162
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:31,960
Speaker 1: extremely extinctive. UM. And he's doing some really good things.

1163
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:35,160
Speaker 1: And again, their their defense has been balling out during

1164
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,520
Speaker 1: this little win streak that they've gotten. And it's a

1165
01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:40,520
Speaker 1: little I mean, it's it's a nice win streak. So, UM,

1166
01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:43,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna have our hands full being smart with the football,

1167
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:45,640
Speaker 1: trying to execute at a high level and give ourselves

1168
01:02:45,680 --> 01:03:01,000
Speaker 1: a chance to win a football game. UM. I mean

1169
01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:05,080
Speaker 1: I think maybe at times, UM, other times, football you know,

1170
01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:07,600
Speaker 1: it's just those guys on the defensive side. They get

1171
01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:10,080
Speaker 1: paid too. And you know, we obviously we want to

1172
01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:11,960
Speaker 1: make sure that we're being smart with the football and

1173
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:13,280
Speaker 1: I want to take care of it and not putting

1174
01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:15,880
Speaker 1: harm's way in the air um or on the ground

1175
01:03:15,960 --> 01:03:19,400
Speaker 1: for that matter. Um, But again, football happens sometimes and

1176
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:21,120
Speaker 1: you gotta be able to roll with the punches forget

1177
01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:23,520
Speaker 1: about it and get onto the next play. And uh,

1178
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:25,880
Speaker 1: you know that's what we're gonna do. And um, you know,

1179
01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:29,080
Speaker 1: getting an emphasis on on ball security, um going forward.

1180
01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:31,880
Speaker 1: You know that's that's a statistic around the league that

1181
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:34,360
Speaker 1: just always holds up pretty true. You know, you win

1182
01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:37,560
Speaker 1: the turnover battle, your chance of winning that game. Um,

1183
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:41,600
Speaker 1: you know increases exponentially. So, uh, we understand that. That's

1184
01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:43,720
Speaker 1: one of the things coach McDermott always preaches to us,

1185
01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:45,320
Speaker 1: and we had to do a better job with it.

1186
01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:48,080
Speaker 1: What do you think about the way they play? They

1187
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:50,400
Speaker 1: play in some games a lot of band coverage in

1188
01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:54,080
Speaker 1: the five v six, but they don't really give up

1189
01:03:54,120 --> 01:04:00,240
Speaker 1: a Yeah. I mean again, they're it's a Belichick defense. Um,

1190
01:04:00,680 --> 01:04:03,160
Speaker 1: They're always gonna be fundamentally sound. They're gonna know their

1191
01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:07,040
Speaker 1: leverage and they're not gonna lose their leverage. Um. You know,

1192
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:09,880
Speaker 1: they they play extremely tough, and like I said, they're

1193
01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:13,200
Speaker 1: so interchangeable. They can play man from zone looks and

1194
01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:16,200
Speaker 1: zone from man looks. Um. They can drop d ends

1195
01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:18,840
Speaker 1: and um d tackles out in coverage as well and

1196
01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:20,640
Speaker 1: bring three and kind of switch things up on you.

1197
01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:23,280
Speaker 1: And they just do a variety of things that make

1198
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:25,960
Speaker 1: it really hard for the opposing quarterbacks. So you know,

1199
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:27,360
Speaker 1: I've got to be on my piece and Ques and

1200
01:04:27,400 --> 01:04:29,440
Speaker 1: make sure that I am very decisive with the football

1201
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,640
Speaker 1: and reading what they're trying to do and again try

1202
01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:35,560
Speaker 1: to get the ball into our playmaker's hands. Makes Matthew

1203
01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:38,720
Speaker 1: Jude on and so effective. I think one is his

1204
01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:43,000
Speaker 1: motor Um. You know, constantly you see him just continuing

1205
01:04:43,320 --> 01:04:47,320
Speaker 1: the play and running down field, making tackles. UM. You know,

1206
01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:49,760
Speaker 1: he's got a couple of good little moves in the

1207
01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:53,600
Speaker 1: pass rush game. UM. And a guy just again, he's

1208
01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:55,520
Speaker 1: he's a motor guy. He wants to go out there

1209
01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:58,280
Speaker 1: and I'm pretty sure he went to a small college,

1210
01:04:58,920 --> 01:05:00,440
Speaker 1: so he's got that chip on his shoulder and he

1211
01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:03,760
Speaker 1: plays extremely hard and he's having a fantastic year for

1212
01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:06,560
Speaker 1: those guys like t J. Watt where you personally need

1213
01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:09,040
Speaker 1: to make sure you know where he's at on the field. Absolutely,

1214
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:12,360
Speaker 1: he's that type of caliber of player where he's he's

1215
01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:14,000
Speaker 1: a difference maker and he can wreck a game if

1216
01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:23,880
Speaker 1: you let him. Thanks for it. Seems like every game

1217
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:26,680
Speaker 1: is a little different. Um, you know, it's it's all

1218
01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:29,400
Speaker 1: game plan base and he wants to try to take

1219
01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:33,720
Speaker 1: away your greatest strength. And um, you know last year

1220
01:05:33,720 --> 01:05:36,240
Speaker 1: I should we we had some success and the previous

1221
01:05:36,320 --> 01:05:39,520
Speaker 1: years we didn't. So again, it's it's a it's a

1222
01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:41,520
Speaker 1: full football game that's gonna have its ups and downs.

1223
01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:43,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna have to adjust on the fly. We're gonna

1224
01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:45,240
Speaker 1: have to ride the ebbs and flows of the game

1225
01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:47,560
Speaker 1: and try to stay as consistent as possible and just

1226
01:05:47,680 --> 01:06:06,480
Speaker 1: try to execute a game plan. I mean yeah, um

1227
01:06:08,040 --> 01:06:10,520
Speaker 1: one just you know, like going back to that game

1228
01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:13,080
Speaker 1: and just not trying to play hero ball. I think

1229
01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 1: I threw three interceptions in the first half or something

1230
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:19,160
Speaker 1: like that, and uh didn't didn't help our team. Um

1231
01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:21,560
Speaker 1: in that aspect, didn't help us move the ball. Um.

1232
01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:25,680
Speaker 1: But again, learning you know, with with McDermott and Dabel's help,

1233
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:28,800
Speaker 1: just trying to end every possession with a kick, whether

1234
01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:32,720
Speaker 1: it be a punt field or pat um and given

1235
01:06:32,760 --> 01:06:35,400
Speaker 1: ourselves the best chance possible. And again it I think

1236
01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 1: it all comes back to that whole turnoverdal is Well.

1237
01:06:42,560 --> 01:06:44,560
Speaker 1: I mean, if you look at the past few games

1238
01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:48,400
Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs, it's just he's having, um, having a lot

1239
01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:51,040
Speaker 1: of success and we're gonna need him going forward. But

1240
01:06:51,080 --> 01:06:53,160
Speaker 1: if they want to, you know, they've done some things

1241
01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:54,840
Speaker 1: in the past where they try to double your best

1242
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:57,200
Speaker 1: guy and maybe they double your number two. And again

1243
01:06:57,280 --> 01:07:01,440
Speaker 1: he's got J. C. Jackson, who's who's um phenomenal player. UM.

1244
01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:03,480
Speaker 1: But again we're just gonna have to adjust on the fly.

1245
01:07:03,680 --> 01:07:06,600
Speaker 1: Whatever they plan on doing, we're gonna find out, you know,

1246
01:07:06,680 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 1: hopefully in that first quarter. Um. And you know, we

1247
01:07:10,040 --> 01:07:12,280
Speaker 1: gotta go out there and make some place like that.

1248
01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:14,240
Speaker 1: How do you kind of balanced between like, you know,

1249
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:15,880
Speaker 1: not for risking too much. We want to give you

1250
01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:18,560
Speaker 1: guys chance. Yeah, I mean I think it's it's just

1251
01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:22,360
Speaker 1: kind of a trust factor of trusting my guy over him. UM.

1252
01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:25,120
Speaker 1: But again, everybody's got to do their part. We all

1253
01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:28,200
Speaker 1: got to do our one eleventh. Um, you know, we

1254
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:31,360
Speaker 1: gotta establish a run game. Um, and again we got

1255
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:33,800
Speaker 1: to not put the ball in arms way in the air.

1256
01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:36,920
Speaker 1: We joked about the start was out of the fun

1257
01:07:37,520 --> 01:07:39,960
Speaker 1: at this time of year. Why do you start look

1258
01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:44,280
Speaker 1: at the forecast and do you guys, how much the

1259
01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:47,919
Speaker 1: plan maybe a personage, you have to be factored into

1260
01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:53,440
Speaker 1: what it looks like. I mean, you know obviously that's

1261
01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:55,040
Speaker 1: kind of one of the reasons I was drafted here

1262
01:07:55,160 --> 01:07:58,720
Speaker 1: is I've played in the elements. I understand, um, you

1263
01:07:58,800 --> 01:08:02,160
Speaker 1: know myself and these elements. And again, sometimes it's extremely

1264
01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:04,280
Speaker 1: hard when the winds blowing forty five fifty miles an

1265
01:08:04,320 --> 01:08:07,600
Speaker 1: hour if it's rain. But again that's that's why I'm here.

1266
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 1: That's why I was drafted to come here and playing

1267
01:08:09,760 --> 01:08:12,520
Speaker 1: these types of elements. So to be honest, I don't

1268
01:08:12,520 --> 01:08:16,160
Speaker 1: really check the forecast. It's all really And again we

1269
01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:18,760
Speaker 1: all know what Buffalo is and how things can change

1270
01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:22,280
Speaker 1: in an instant. And again I gotta be ready to

1271
01:08:22,400 --> 01:08:25,120
Speaker 1: play whatever type of weather and try to excoo agame

1272
01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:29,320
Speaker 1: than all right, that's Josh Allen addressing the media and

1273
01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:32,600
Speaker 1: talking about consistency, talking about efficiency, which you have to

1274
01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:35,800
Speaker 1: be against the New England Patriots. But we moved from

1275
01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:38,599
Speaker 1: Josh to the other side of the ball where one

1276
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:42,600
Speaker 1: Mario Addison is going to be joining us, and we

Speaker 1: to tell you that it's a grind. But how much

1299
01:09:56,200 --> 01:09:59,200
Speaker 1: on the back end of this Thanksgiving night game, you know,

1300
01:09:59,320 --> 01:10:02,200
Speaker 1: getting this any buy so to speak. You know, coach

1302
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:09,880

1303
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:15,280
Speaker 1: mini break now coming into the home stretch of the season. Man,

1304
01:10:15,439 --> 01:10:18,080
Speaker 1: it's very important, like we need it. Like I said,

1305
01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:21,479
Speaker 1: we started our first bottles was early and U you know,

1306
01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:24,040
Speaker 1: thout the process, you know, a lot of guys get

1307
01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:27,960
Speaker 1: banged up. And one thing about my guys, you know,

1308
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:30,360
Speaker 1: we could play through anything. And um, we had a

1309
01:10:30,400 --> 01:10:32,040
Speaker 1: lot of people, you know, a lot of knick nacks

1310
01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:34,840
Speaker 1: for us to have those couple of days off. You know,

1311
01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:39,559
Speaker 1: it's very good because we need it. So everybody going

1312
01:10:39,600 --> 01:10:41,599
Speaker 1: into this Monday night game, you know, kind of fresh

1313
01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:44,080
Speaker 1: and feeling good and you bought in and tell what

1314
01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:46,599
Speaker 1: the coaches told us through and we're ready to see

1315
01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:49,479
Speaker 1: you up man and balled up and all the reason

1316
01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:52,280
Speaker 1: we paid to win man, So you gotta be you

1317
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:55,400
Speaker 1: gotta be Monday night, speaking of coming in fresh and

1318
01:10:55,479 --> 01:10:57,559
Speaker 1: ready to play. You're you know, you're a veteran. You've

1319
01:10:57,560 --> 01:10:59,400
Speaker 1: been around the block in the NFL. You've played a

1320
01:10:59,439 --> 01:11:01,360
Speaker 1: bunch of seasons and a lot of games. What are

1321
01:11:01,400 --> 01:11:04,120
Speaker 1: the what's the advice you're giving the guys like Aja Panessa,

1322
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:09,400
Speaker 1: Boogie Basham, Greg Rousseau about the length of the season.

1323
01:11:09,479 --> 01:11:11,840
Speaker 1: And I mean, it feels like those guys are kind

1324
01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:13,479
Speaker 1: of have kind of hit a little bit of a swoon.

1325
01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:15,800
Speaker 1: They kind of disappeared from the consciousness. We don't see

1326
01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:18,479
Speaker 1: him too much on the fieldmaking plays. And yet you've

1327
01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:22,040
Speaker 1: been as steadily consistent throughout and it seems like the

1328
01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:24,720
Speaker 1: young guys of you know, I guess I don't I

1329
01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:26,519
Speaker 1: guess I should call it what it is. A rookie

1330
01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:29,080
Speaker 1: Wall seems to have maybe grab some of these young

1331
01:11:29,160 --> 01:11:32,800
Speaker 1: defensive linemen. What's your advice to them? For them? Man,

1332
01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:35,000
Speaker 1: just I tell a guy like those guys, you know,

1333
01:11:35,240 --> 01:11:38,840
Speaker 1: just try your best to stay consistent. You know, the

1334
01:11:38,960 --> 01:11:42,040
Speaker 1: game ain't always gonna be perfect. But when like me,

1335
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:44,760
Speaker 1: my reps kind of died down a little bit. But

1336
01:11:44,840 --> 01:11:46,639
Speaker 1: when I'm on the field. It don't matter how many

1337
01:11:46,680 --> 01:11:49,519
Speaker 1: reps I got. I gotta kevinize and RELs I do guys.

1338
01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:52,760
Speaker 1: So for guys like they, I'm telling you know, just

1339
01:11:53,200 --> 01:11:55,320
Speaker 1: every place Man played like it's your last place. And

1340
01:11:55,400 --> 01:11:58,640
Speaker 1: just try your best to be consistent. Those guys they

1341
01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:02,160
Speaker 1: have everything tapes You're daying out in our defense line wrong,

1342
01:12:02,439 --> 01:12:06,479
Speaker 1: they belong there, so you know out like I say,

1343
01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:08,400
Speaker 1: they ain't always gonna be paid by the number, But

1344
01:12:08,880 --> 01:12:11,280
Speaker 1: get out there and show him that you know you're

1345
01:12:11,280 --> 01:12:14,160
Speaker 1: worth it. And I gotta fit in. Those guys gonna

1346
01:12:14,160 --> 01:12:16,960
Speaker 1: show a big on Monday night. So Mario, it looks

1347
01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:18,960
Speaker 1: like the last couple of games you and ed to

1348
01:12:19,080 --> 01:12:22,519
Speaker 1: have done an excellent job playing off one another. Um

1349
01:12:22,760 --> 01:12:25,000
Speaker 1: it kind of came to a head on Thanksgiving night.

1350
01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:28,760
Speaker 1: What is it about your on field chemistry that you

1351
01:12:28,920 --> 01:12:31,479
Speaker 1: feel has been working so well as if late between

1352
01:12:31,520 --> 01:12:35,800
Speaker 1: you two? Um, I love thing enough. Ed Man. You

1353
01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:37,439
Speaker 1: know you're a younger guy. I want to say, what

1354
01:12:37,600 --> 01:12:40,360
Speaker 1: here three Ed and uh? He played with two minutes

1355
01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:43,720
Speaker 1: energy And I remember when I was young, I used

1356
01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:46,360
Speaker 1: to change with the same instance. So I always get

1357
01:12:46,479 --> 01:12:49,920
Speaker 1: motivated by him because you know edg gonna come out

1358
01:12:49,920 --> 01:12:52,680
Speaker 1: of the ball fans. You know, ed gonna hit the

1359
01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:56,720
Speaker 1: quarterback every chance he get. And you know, being on

1360
01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:58,439
Speaker 1: the side of him, you want to beat there. You

1361
01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:00,320
Speaker 1: want to, you know, do the same thing. You want

1362
01:13:00,360 --> 01:13:02,760

1369
01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:17,360
Speaker 1: side of you everything no matter what. So I feed

1370
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:20,519
Speaker 1: off his easy And well, what kind of offensive line?

1371
01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:23,120
Speaker 1: What kind of personality does the New England Patriots offensive

1372
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:28,439
Speaker 1: line present? Um? They got it all a collect good group.

1373
01:13:28,520 --> 01:13:32,720
Speaker 1: They got a good group. And um you're gonna leave

1374
01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:35,680
Speaker 1: that that they got a good group. Yeah, I mean

1375
01:13:35,920 --> 01:13:37,640
Speaker 1: we you know, we watched the games just like you

1376
01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:40,599
Speaker 1: guys do. Maybe not as long or as intently uh

1377
01:13:40,760 --> 01:13:43,280
Speaker 1: as you guys do. But I mean they they got

1378
01:13:43,320 --> 01:13:45,479
Speaker 1: two backs that like to run hard. I mean they're

1379
01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:48,800
Speaker 1: not shy about running right at you. Um, you know,

1380
01:13:48,960 --> 01:13:52,120
Speaker 1: you guys, I know coaches has talked about being the

1381
01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:55,960
Speaker 1: more physical team each and every week, which you know

1382
01:13:56,240 --> 01:13:59,559
Speaker 1: that that's an ask, that that's an attitude thing. Um,

1383
01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:03,320
Speaker 1: what gives you confidence that you guys will be able

1384
01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:06,519
Speaker 1: to at the very least match, if not exceed their

1385
01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:10,640
Speaker 1: physicality at the light of scrimmage. And we've been preparing for,

1386
01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:13,960
Speaker 1: you know, games like this since you know OTA's many

1387
01:14:13,960 --> 01:14:17,040
Speaker 1: account train account. You know, before we can even rush

1388
01:14:17,080 --> 01:14:19,920
Speaker 1: the pass, you know, we gotta put them behind the sticks.

1389
01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:23,840
Speaker 1: We gotta stop the run. So with our defense, you

1390
01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:26,879
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, we get we pay getut sound football.

1391
01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:29,960
Speaker 1: So like I said, when our ends said the ends

1392
01:14:30,040 --> 01:14:32,160
Speaker 1: and our three techniques to come off the ball, you

1393
01:14:32,280 --> 01:14:35,599
Speaker 1: know it's stilled with the front line. We dominated the game.

1394
01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:37,800
Speaker 1: Then it's nothing that they can do to harm us.

1395
01:14:38,080 --> 01:14:40,200
Speaker 1: So when the d line come out and play our

1396
01:14:40,280 --> 01:14:43,600
Speaker 1: baseball on one day, you know, everything they throw with us,

1397
01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:46,360
Speaker 1: they won't even affect us. There's a possibility that the

1398
01:14:46,479 --> 01:14:49,160
Speaker 1: weather might be horrible, and everybody always thinks about how

1399
01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:51,160
Speaker 1: hard it is to catch the football, how hard it

1400
01:14:51,200 --> 01:14:53,640
Speaker 1: is to run rounds. But you guys down inside, I mean,

1401
01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:56,080
Speaker 1: it's no picnic for you guys either How does the

1402
01:14:56,360 --> 01:14:59,920
Speaker 1: do the weather elements help or hurt the offense? Defense

1403
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:02,120
Speaker 1: of line? Who gets the advantage? How does it affect

1404
01:15:02,200 --> 01:15:05,519
Speaker 1: your play and what you're thinking about down there? Um,

1405
01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:08,800
Speaker 1: I can only speak for us the line. You know,

1406
01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:14,479
Speaker 1: it don't matter if it's sunny, no starting outside or raining,

1407
01:15:14,840 --> 01:15:18,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna put hands on each other, no on office line,

1408
01:15:18,240 --> 01:15:20,760
Speaker 1: every pace. So we're gonna touch that guy no matter where.

1409
01:15:21,080 --> 01:15:22,920
Speaker 1: So it don't matter if it's raining or not, we're

1410
01:15:22,920 --> 01:15:25,040
Speaker 1: gonna touch that guy. So for us, man, we just

1411
01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:29,080
Speaker 1: gotta live outblow before they can delivering els. Talking to

1412
01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:32,040
Speaker 1: Bill's defensive n Mario Addison here on our Fresh off

1413
01:15:32,080 --> 01:15:33,960
Speaker 1: the Field interview, Mario, I did have to ask you

1414
01:15:34,080 --> 01:15:39,120
Speaker 1: about the loss of Tradevious White coach McDermott characterized it

1415
01:15:39,240 --> 01:15:44,440
Speaker 1: today as not something Dane Jackson has to worry about specifically,

1416
01:15:44,640 --> 01:15:47,559
Speaker 1: but something that all of you have to worry about

1417
01:15:47,680 --> 01:15:50,160
Speaker 1: and pull on the rope a little harder as a group.

1418
01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:53,960
Speaker 1: How do you best how do you best approach that

1419
01:15:54,640 --> 01:15:57,160
Speaker 1: losing a player the caliber of trade to make sure

1420
01:15:57,200 --> 01:16:00,760
Speaker 1: you're all pulling on the rope together. Man, you know

1421
01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:03,800
Speaker 1: we need a guy like him, you know, that's a

1422
01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:07,240
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl player, all cornerback, that's gonna give you his

1423
01:16:07,439 --> 01:16:09,920
Speaker 1: all every time he says to feel and it hurts,

1424
01:16:10,160 --> 01:16:11,599
Speaker 1: you know, it kind of hurt the whole defense when

1425
01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:13,920
Speaker 1: you lose a guy like that. But for us as

1426
01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:16,519
Speaker 1: a whole group, we just got up our games. It's

1427
01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:19,640
Speaker 1: a little more you know, next man up mentality. Um,

1428
01:16:19,720 --> 01:16:22,560
Speaker 1: the guys has coming in to feel his position. You know,

1429
01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:25,400
Speaker 1: they've been waiting for their opportunity since you know, since

1430
01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:28,320
Speaker 1: they got anyded So for them to step up and

1431
01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:30,840
Speaker 1: do their thing. I got the utmost confidence that they're

1432
01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:33,880
Speaker 1: gonna do that. So if we play you know, team ball,

1433
01:16:34,600 --> 01:16:37,679
Speaker 1: great defense like we've been going, you know, you don't

1434
01:16:37,720 --> 01:16:39,920
Speaker 1: matter who I there who don't barely each other out.

1435
01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:43,280
Speaker 1: What's what's your mindset? Us defensive line? Is your group

1436
01:16:43,479 --> 01:16:46,080
Speaker 1: going in against the rookie quarterback that you know drops back,

1437
01:16:46,120 --> 01:16:47,920
Speaker 1: gets the ball out of there really quick. I mean,

1438
01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:50,439
Speaker 1: you know, obviously batted balls are a big thing. Trying

1439
01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:52,479
Speaker 1: to get there quick and trying to trying to win

1440
01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:55,679
Speaker 1: now is a big thing as well. Plus being aware

1441
01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:57,200
Speaker 1: of the play action because they got such a good

1442
01:16:57,280 --> 01:16:59,240
Speaker 1: run game, all that stuff in the mix. But a

1443
01:16:59,360 --> 01:17:02,240
Speaker 1: young rookie quarterback who drops back gets rid of the

1444
01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:04,639
Speaker 1: ball quick. How does that change your mindset going into

1445
01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:09,640
Speaker 1: a game? Um, you know, if you back up, like

1446
01:17:09,680 --> 01:17:12,280
Speaker 1: I tell everybody, if you bat, then he belongs. You know.

1447
01:17:12,439 --> 01:17:14,599
Speaker 1: I don't go in the game saying, Okay, we're gonna

1448
01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:16,920
Speaker 1: get richie quarterback. You know I saying we're gonna get

1449
01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:18,479
Speaker 1: you know what I say. We've been lead thirty years,

1450
01:17:18,720 --> 01:17:21,360
Speaker 1: who've been league twenty years. I don't care about none

1451
01:17:21,400 --> 01:17:23,240
Speaker 1: of that, you know what I'm saying because I believe

1452
01:17:23,439 --> 01:17:26,000
Speaker 1: you know, twelve years, I mean eleven years going on

1453
01:17:26,080 --> 01:17:28,760
Speaker 1: twelve years. If I'm still here, do not belong. So

1454
01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:32,599
Speaker 1: you can't go in underestimate him because he's a rookie quarterback.

1455
01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:34,640
Speaker 1: Like you said, Man, he don't want to get hit.

1456
01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:36,240
Speaker 1: You're gonna get the ball out of hands quick. So

1457
01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:37,800
Speaker 1: we've got to find a way to get to and

1458
01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:40,120
Speaker 1: affect him. So that's our main thing. We're gonna try

1459
01:17:40,120 --> 01:17:43,479
Speaker 1: to fit the quarterback every chance we get it. I

1460
01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:45,640
Speaker 1: know you were here when there were no fans in

1461
01:17:45,720 --> 01:17:48,480
Speaker 1: the stands. You've gotten to feel for the home atmosphere,

1462
01:17:48,560 --> 01:17:51,160
Speaker 1: but you have not had an atmosphere like Monday night

1463
01:17:51,920 --> 01:17:55,080
Speaker 1: uh here in Buffalo. So uh that takes it up

1464
01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:57,920
Speaker 1: another couple of notches. Are what I what if some

1465
01:17:58,040 --> 01:17:59,880
Speaker 1: of your teammates told you that have been here for

1466
01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:04,519
Speaker 1: Monday night atmospheres. Man, they say all they said, the

1467
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:07,439
Speaker 1: whole statement gonna be watching. It's gonna be real loud,

1468
01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:10,920
Speaker 1: and you know everybody's gonna be out of the seat

1469
01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:13,200
Speaker 1: the whole time. That were that were I was told.

1470
01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:16,200
Speaker 1: So I'm looking forward to sending all the fans, you know,

1471
01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:19,280
Speaker 1: enjoy this great game because you're gonna come down to

1472
01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:22,760
Speaker 1: a dolt fight and um, I pray that we'll come

1473
01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:26,080
Speaker 1: out on top, you know, for Bill Moffatt in our salves.

1474
01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:28,920
Speaker 1: So I'm looking forward for a Monday night game. You

1475
01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:30,680
Speaker 1: said at the beginning, it's a long day when you

1476
01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:32,599
Speaker 1: have to play Monday night football. You gotta go through

1477
01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:34,600

Speaker 1: get a get a sense from what's happening. You get

1479
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:39,920
Speaker 1: and yeah, the same thing. Night before game hard to

1480
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:42,960
Speaker 1: sleep a little bit usually, and then it is a

1481
01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:46,680
Speaker 1: long wait before you go to the stadium. How do

1482
01:18:46,760 --> 01:18:50,439
Speaker 1: you deal with that? Um? You know, a guy like me,

1483
01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:54,280
Speaker 1: um for long games, I mean long waits like that.

1484
01:18:54,720 --> 01:18:58,680
Speaker 1: You got to gotta hydrate, man, gotta hydrate well, you

1485
01:18:58,720 --> 01:19:01,000
Speaker 1: got you gotta eat. You gotta eat good, because if

1486
01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:02,760
Speaker 1: you go to sitting around, you know, waiting on the

1487
01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:06,000
Speaker 1: game and all that, you hadn't been drinking property. You know,

1488
01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:08,439
Speaker 1: he's gonna affect You're gonna affect your game. You're gonna

1489
01:19:08,479 --> 01:19:09,720
Speaker 1: get out there. You know what I'm saying, you might

1490
01:19:09,800 --> 01:19:12,599
Speaker 1: cramp up. Because I experienced um or alone this year

1491
01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:16,160
Speaker 1: when we played Kansas City. You know, um I underestimated,

1492
01:19:16,280 --> 01:19:18,599
Speaker 1: you know, the way time and I kind of ate light,

1493
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:22,400
Speaker 1: you know, earlier than morning, ate light around lunch time,

1494
01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:24,800
Speaker 1: and I didn't eat anything else before the game. I

1495
01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:26,599
Speaker 1: got out there. You know what I'm saying. Right before

1496
01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:29,760
Speaker 1: half time, I had caught a cramp. And then when

1497
01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:31,200
Speaker 1: I came back out, I didn't play nothing in the

1498
01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:34,519
Speaker 1: second half because I couldn't shake the cramp and because

1499
01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:36,840
Speaker 1: I was dehydra and I didn't have enough engine in

1500
01:19:36,880 --> 01:19:39,400
Speaker 1: my body so far a long day like that, you

1503
01:19:45,400 --> 01:19:47,400
Speaker 1: you would get still. Yeah, because and that game had

1504
01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:50,360
Speaker 1: an hour weather delay with the lightning and everything, and

1505
01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:52,280
Speaker 1: you guys are in the locker room and peanut butter

1506
01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:56,760
Speaker 1: and jelly sandwiches. Um oh, brokes, brokes, bro Yeah, we

1507
01:19:56,880 --> 01:19:59,400
Speaker 1: heard about that. They were not put together very well.

1508
01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:02,080
Speaker 1: Just grew up a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. But

1509

Speaker 1: I probably like more and more jellative peanut butter. Yeah,

1511
01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:12,400
Speaker 1: I'm with you there. And then are you what are

1512
01:20:12,439 --> 01:20:16,679
Speaker 1: you grape or strawberry or great great jelly? Yeah, can't

1513
01:20:16,680 --> 01:20:19,439
Speaker 1: go on. You're seeing that I'm in that camp. And

1514
01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:21,000
Speaker 1: it seems like a lot of guys are on the

1515
01:20:21,040 --> 01:20:23,720
Speaker 1: strawberry side of things. Steve's a strawberry. I like straw

1516
01:20:23,840 --> 01:20:25,679
Speaker 1: It's harder to get. Just as a kid, you couldn't

1517
01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:28,559
Speaker 1: get strawberry. It was only great yea. Yeah, so now

1518
01:20:28,640 --> 01:20:30,760
Speaker 1: it's always great. Yeah, so you grew up with grape.

1519
01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:32,680
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm a fan of either, as long as

1520
01:20:32,720 --> 01:20:35,000
Speaker 1: there's more of that than there is peanut butter. That's so.

1521
01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:37,040
Speaker 1: That's all my grandma about was great je When I

1522
01:20:37,120 --> 01:20:39,280
Speaker 1: was going up right and you know, from down south

1523
01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:44,280
Speaker 1: of Birmingham, Alabama. So she kept a great jen. Yeah, well,

1524
01:20:44,360 --> 01:20:47,679
Speaker 1: I like Grandma's choice because I'm a grape jelly fan myself. Listen, Mario,

1530
01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:05,040
Speaker 1: you by Austin Air, the official clean air provider of

1531
01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:07,719
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. We are going to take a break here,

1532
01:21:08,080 --> 01:21:09,600
Speaker 1: but we will get some of your thoughts on the

1533
01:21:09,640 --> 01:21:12,200
Speaker 1: tweet sheet when we come back here on One Bills Live.

1534
01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:26,120
Speaker 1: Forsenter by Kalid to Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right,

1535
01:21:26,160 --> 01:21:28,320
Speaker 1: welcome back to One Bills Live. Chris brown Sleeves ask

1536
01:21:28,400 --> 01:21:30,200
Speaker 1: you with you. We're gonna go back to the phones

1537
01:21:30,479 --> 01:21:32,760
Speaker 1: and we'll pull up Tom on the west side. Tom,

1538
01:21:32,800 --> 01:21:34,240
Speaker 1: what do you have for us here on One Bills Live.

1539
01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:37,840
Speaker 1: Good afternoon, John's I'll try to make it quick. But Steve,

1540
01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:40,880
Speaker 1: you know you should know that you got my vote

1541
01:21:40,920 --> 01:21:45,559
Speaker 1: for a golden jacket. We're just getting Rubin and Kelly

1542
01:21:45,640 --> 01:21:50,200
Speaker 1: should be on that list anyway. I believe the weather

1543
01:21:50,479 --> 01:21:54,120
Speaker 1: is going to be the biggest factor, and we should

1544
01:21:54,200 --> 01:21:59,599
Speaker 1: probably resigned Shady, even if just for one game, but hey,

1545
01:21:59,720 --> 01:22:02,120
Speaker 1: he we might need him the rest of the season.

1546
01:22:03,280 --> 01:22:06,720
Speaker 1: They should be out there practicing today in this weather. Yeah,

1547
01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:09,760
Speaker 1: Shady fall. Hey forget, Shady had a really nice day

1548
01:22:09,840 --> 01:22:11,920
Speaker 1: in that snow game against the cold. Might be the

1549
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:15,880
Speaker 1: best snow player. Yeah, that was the And I get

1550
01:22:15,920 --> 01:22:18,640
Speaker 1: it too. Some guys can't play in it because the

1551
01:22:18,680 --> 01:22:20,559
Speaker 1: way they run and their stride and their way their

1552
01:22:20,600 --> 01:22:22,640
Speaker 1: foot comes down there on all this, you know, this

1553
01:22:22,920 --> 01:22:27,639
Speaker 1: uh ergonomic football and how their body moves. But some guys,

1554
01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:30,320
Speaker 1: the way they run is better for running in bad

1555
01:22:30,360 --> 01:22:35,200
Speaker 1: weather in snow. Shady's seems to be built for it. Man,

1556
01:22:35,360 --> 01:22:37,719
Speaker 1: best snow player I've ever seen. That was not even close.

1557
01:22:37,840 --> 01:22:39,559
Speaker 1: That was one of the great snow run. He's had

1558
01:22:39,560 --> 01:22:41,040
Speaker 1: a couple of the great snow runs in that game

1559
01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:42,439
Speaker 1: that I've ever Of course, you know there's not they

1560
01:22:42,439 --> 01:22:46,479
Speaker 1: don't happen every week, but that was really a spectacular game.

1561
01:22:46,520 --> 01:22:50,559
Speaker 1: The Colt game from two thousand and eighteen, No, two thousand,

1562
01:22:51,600 --> 01:22:56,400
Speaker 1: when was that? It was twenty seventeen, or was it

1563
01:22:56,640 --> 01:22:59,240
Speaker 1: was McDermott the coach, or was okay, I'd be seventeen.

1564
01:22:59,320 --> 01:23:03,000
Speaker 1: Then it is like, man, oh man, it was amazing

1565
01:23:03,200 --> 01:23:06,040
Speaker 1: to watch ast him. After the game in the postgame

1566
01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:08,720
Speaker 1: media room, I asked him, I said, what do you

1567
01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:12,720
Speaker 1: do to make sure you don't slip? Like I'm I'm

1568
01:23:12,840 --> 01:23:17,960
Speaker 1: looking for like some different technique he employees to make

1569
01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:21,120
Speaker 1: give him sure footing even in horrible conditions, Like what

1570
01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:24,600
Speaker 1: what does this guy do to run like that? And

1571
01:23:24,840 --> 01:23:26,800
Speaker 1: he looks at me and he goes, I just do it.

1572
01:23:27,640 --> 01:23:30,040
Speaker 1: And I'm like, okay, well we've got a unicorn here,

1573
01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:33,560
Speaker 1: so it's true. I just do it. Okay. It's just

1574
01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:35,840
Speaker 1: the way he the way nobody else can. You know.

1575
01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:38,680
Speaker 1: It's like, uh, like you think Marshawn Lynch, you know

1576
01:23:38,760 --> 01:23:40,479
Speaker 1: he kind of when he runs, he kind of stomps

1577
01:23:40,560 --> 01:23:42,519
Speaker 1: his feet, right, you think he'd probably be a good

1578
01:23:42,680 --> 01:23:45,000
Speaker 1: But I've never seen playing snow though it doesn't happen.

1579
01:23:45,080 --> 01:23:46,800
Speaker 1: You don't get too many guys that you get a

1580
01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:49,200
Speaker 1: chance to see do that. That display that he put

1581
01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:52,600
Speaker 1: on in the Colts game was pretty spectacular. With with

1582
01:23:53,400 --> 01:23:56,920
Speaker 1: Rich who was Webb Davis Webb, Joe Joe Webb, Joe

1583
01:23:57,000 --> 01:24:00,320
Speaker 1: Webb the third Yeah, because Peterman got a can cushion

1584
01:24:00,320 --> 01:24:04,320
Speaker 1: in the game, Tyrod was hurt, didn't play, and Joe

1585
01:24:04,400 --> 01:24:07,800
Speaker 1: Webb with the chuck to Deonte Thompson got him into

1586
01:24:07,880 --> 01:24:10,160
Speaker 1: Colts territory. That and the running back on the other

1587
01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:13,519
Speaker 1: side wasn't too bad either, Frank Gore he was running

1588
01:24:13,520 --> 01:24:15,000
Speaker 1: for the Colts back then. That's one of the most

1589
01:24:15,080 --> 01:24:17,920
Speaker 1: un unforgettable games I've ever witnessed in the stadiums. It

1590
01:24:17,960 --> 01:24:20,920
Speaker 1: really is. What's the biggest storyline ahead of Monday Night's

1591
01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:23,600
Speaker 1: game against the Patriots. We go to the tweet sheet now,

1592
01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:25,560
Speaker 1: which is brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the

1593
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:29,479
Speaker 1: official moving equipment company of the Buffalo Bills, and VJ says,

1594
01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:32,920
Speaker 1: will aj Klein get on the field with Milano and

1595
01:24:33,000 --> 01:24:35,519
Speaker 1: Edmonds or will Leslie Frazier stick to the nickel without

1596
01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:40,240
Speaker 1: his best corner? I think the only way aj Klein

1597
01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:43,920
Speaker 1: gets on the field is if it's a snow game. Yeah,

1598
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:47,760
Speaker 1: measurable snow we're talking about. I'm talking about a bad

1599
01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:51,400
Speaker 1: or a monsoon, a freezing rain where nobody can throw

1600
01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:53,679
Speaker 1: the football at all. Then you go and he gets

1601
01:24:53,720 --> 01:24:58,839
Speaker 1: on the field and Yeah, yeah, maybe, and maybe otherwise

1602
01:24:58,880 --> 01:25:01,200
Speaker 1: it's nickel. Maybe Jackson comes off the field and they

1603
01:25:01,240 --> 01:25:03,160
Speaker 1: put another D linement on. I mean, don't something like that,

1604
01:25:03,360 --> 01:25:07,519
Speaker 1: some some quirky thing like that. Otherwise, listen, they're going nickel,

1605
01:25:07,800 --> 01:25:11,519
Speaker 1: Yeah they're Jay Mad says whether or not the team

1606
01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:14,320
Speaker 1: as a whole can play mistake free and if the

1607
01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:17,160
Speaker 1: defense can make Mac uncomfortable and show him looks he

1608
01:25:17,280 --> 01:25:21,040
Speaker 1: hasn't seen so far in his pro career. Belichick has

1609
01:25:21,080 --> 01:25:25,000
Speaker 1: complimented Jordan Poyer and Micah Hide more than once on

1610
01:25:25,120 --> 01:25:28,920
Speaker 1: their ability to disguise pre snap. He is amazed at

1611
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:32,600
Speaker 1: how they're able to essentially line up out of position

1612
01:25:33,439 --> 01:25:34,880
Speaker 1: at the snap of the ball and still get to

1613
01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:36,960
Speaker 1: where they're supposed to be on a given assignment based

1614
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:39,400
Speaker 1: on the play call. So yeah, maybe they can throw

1615
01:25:39,479 --> 01:25:41,240
Speaker 1: him a couple of curveballs, cross him up a little

1616
01:25:41,240 --> 01:25:43,240
Speaker 1: bit and get him to make a mistake. He hasn't

1617
01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:46,080
Speaker 1: made many though. I mean the kids the AFC Offensive

1618
01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:48,479
Speaker 1: player of the Month for November, that's the rookie of

1619
01:25:48,520 --> 01:25:51,320
Speaker 1: the month, the player of the month in the entire league. Yeah,

1620
01:25:53,040 --> 01:25:55,280
Speaker 1: here's the question for Mac Jones right now. Is his

1621
01:25:55,880 --> 01:26:00,800
Speaker 1: kids playing great? Seventy percent completion percentage even better, and

1622
01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:03,280
Speaker 1: you know they're asking to do what they want him

1623
01:26:03,280 --> 01:26:04,840
Speaker 1: to do to win. They got a great defense and

1624
01:26:04,880 --> 01:26:07,920
Speaker 1: a good running game. The question is this, how much

1625
01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:11,880
Speaker 1: better can he play than he is right now? I

1626
01:26:11,920 --> 01:26:13,920
Speaker 1: don't know who they can. Yeah, see that's what I'm thinking.

1627
01:26:14,040 --> 01:26:17,160
Speaker 1: He might be just come in, show up. That's how

1628
01:26:17,240 --> 01:26:19,280
Speaker 1: good he is. And that's what you get. He may

1629
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:23,000
Speaker 1: that they are winning with it, So why you know,

1630
01:26:23,080 --> 01:26:26,040
Speaker 1: why back at it? But for a guy who if

1631
01:26:26,040 --> 01:26:27,600
Speaker 1: you want a quarterback who can put the team on

1632
01:26:27,680 --> 01:26:30,400
Speaker 1: his back and do it. I don't know if he's

1633
01:26:30,400 --> 01:26:32,360
Speaker 1: gonna be able to do that. But Mantleman tell me

1634
01:26:32,439 --> 01:26:34,280
Speaker 1: they can't win games. I got I got proof that

1635
01:26:34,360 --> 01:26:37,759
Speaker 1: says otherwise. Well, with that defense and that special teams

1636
01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:41,360
Speaker 1: unit supporting you. Yeah, but he's played very efficient football,

1637
01:26:41,520 --> 01:26:44,599
Speaker 1: very productive football, productive football. You know he's not gonna

1638
01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:47,479
Speaker 1: you know, he's got to release it early and get

1639
01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:49,360
Speaker 1: it up and get it out of there to throw

1640
01:26:49,400 --> 01:26:52,960
Speaker 1: the deep ball, because they're they'll outrun his arm. But

1641
01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:57,559
Speaker 1: mant ol Man, he makes He's an anticipatory and he's

1642
01:26:57,560 --> 01:27:00,080
Speaker 1: a very accurate, so he can make some plays on

1643
01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:04,320
Speaker 1: this Bill's defense, James says his story of the game.

1644
01:27:04,720 --> 01:27:07,519
Speaker 1: Will Spencer Brown and Mongol Feliciano be back as well

1645
01:27:07,560 --> 01:27:09,560
Speaker 1: as Star? They need all three of them. That's the

1646
01:27:09,640 --> 01:27:12,040
Speaker 1: key as far as I can see, And just to

1647
01:27:12,160 --> 01:27:13,880
Speaker 1: bring people up to speed if they're just joining us.

1648
01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:16,439
Speaker 1: Coach McDermott said earlier today he needs to see these

1649
01:27:16,520 --> 01:27:19,880
Speaker 1: guys practice today before he'll have a better sense as

1650
01:27:19,960 --> 01:27:22,439
Speaker 1: to whether or not they will be able to suit up.

1651
01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:25,200
Speaker 1: We should not dismiss the fact that Feliciano has now

1652
01:27:25,280 --> 01:27:29,160
Speaker 1: missed four games, Star is missed three and Brown has

1653
01:27:29,200 --> 01:27:31,720
Speaker 1: missed the last two. So there is going to be

1654
01:27:31,760 --> 01:27:34,840
Speaker 1: a reacclamation period that goes beyond the practice field where

1655
01:27:35,120 --> 01:27:38,000
Speaker 1: the coaching staff is going to have to make a determination. Yeah,

1656
01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:39,880
Speaker 1: these guys are ready to go, I think in the

1657
01:27:40,080 --> 01:27:43,840
Speaker 1: end as long as they practice you know today, Tomorrow, Saturday, Sunday,

1658
01:27:43,840 --> 01:27:45,559
Speaker 1: they're gonna be on the field Monday night. They need

1659
01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:48,639
Speaker 1: those guys. Yeah, and there it could be. Dion Dawkins

1660
01:27:48,760 --> 01:27:52,080
Speaker 1: was said that, you know, Starlotula asked him, he saidlet

1661
01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:54,920
Speaker 1: have some you know, he had some chess problems, as

1662
01:27:54,960 --> 01:27:57,160
Speaker 1: you would think in a respiratory virus like that covid

1663
01:27:57,280 --> 01:27:58,840
Speaker 1: is he called deals? How did you deal with he says,

1664
01:27:58,840 --> 01:28:00,960
Speaker 1: everybody deals with a different that kind. So there's a

1665
01:28:01,080 --> 01:28:03,160
Speaker 1: chance that maybe Star will be available and play, but

1666
01:28:03,240 --> 01:28:07,080
Speaker 1: have a limited snapt yeah pitch count or a spread

1667
01:28:07,120 --> 01:28:10,800
Speaker 1: out pitch count, you know what I'm saying. Spencer Brown

1668
01:28:10,840 --> 01:28:12,800
Speaker 1: the same thing, although you know, don't know how he's

1669
01:28:12,800 --> 01:28:14,760
Speaker 1: feeling or how either of them they may feel great,

1670
01:28:14,800 --> 01:28:17,639
Speaker 1: who knows, but that's how I would anticipate it going.

1671
01:28:18,280 --> 01:28:20,439
Speaker 1: Hair Thing says, Can the Bills finally live up to

1672
01:28:20,479 --> 01:28:22,640
Speaker 1: their talent as a team and smash the Patriots just

1673
01:28:22,760 --> 01:28:26,360
Speaker 1: like they should have every team this season? So that

1674
01:28:26,439 --> 01:28:29,200
Speaker 1: speaks to the consistency issue. You're playing one of the

1675
01:28:29,280 --> 01:28:32,080
Speaker 1: most consistent mistake free teams in the league and the Patriots,

1676
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:34,760
Speaker 1: who have ripped off six straight wins. Does the law

1677
01:28:34,800 --> 01:28:36,960
Speaker 1: of averages catch up with the Patriots where they maybe

1678
01:28:37,080 --> 01:28:39,680
Speaker 1: don't play at peak efficiency? And do the Bills put

1679
01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:42,479
Speaker 1: together their best game of the year, which I think

1680
01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:44,680
Speaker 1: we can still say at this point, Steve, they have not.

1681
01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:47,600
Speaker 1: No I mean, and we talked about this at the

1682
01:28:47,640 --> 01:28:50,000
Speaker 1: beginning of the show. There's a little bit of this

1683
01:28:50,240 --> 01:28:52,519
Speaker 1: that our expectations were so through the roof with this

1684
01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:54,639
Speaker 1: team at the start of this season that I don't

1685
01:28:54,680 --> 01:28:56,920
Speaker 1: know that there's any way they could live up to

1686
01:28:57,000 --> 01:29:00,639
Speaker 1: them unless they were playing at that, you know, beating

1687
01:29:00,680 --> 01:29:03,679
Speaker 1: everybody by twenty points every week. So there's a little

1688
01:29:03,680 --> 01:29:05,920
Speaker 1: bit of that, but I think even so, they have

1689
01:29:06,080 --> 01:29:08,000
Speaker 1: not played as well as they want to play yet,

1690
01:29:08,360 --> 01:29:10,920
Speaker 1: particularly on the offensive side of it. Yeah, big Friday
