1 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: Cut down Buffalo at a Steve Tasker who has been 2 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 1: all over the field. Unique. He was kind of a 3 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:18,439 Speaker 1: dual role player for you, Steve a blimp. We're not 4 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: even in the credit. Beard of normalcy. Hanny Hill takes 5 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: gets into the big Man, charging up the Medal's got 6 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: good run, got good groom across the party, across midfield. 7 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: He's gonna score. Derry Golo's Derrick Henry. He's gonna hit 8 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: the end zone. Touchdown, Tennessee. They tie it up. It 9 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 1: took one play, It went seventy six yards. Rick snap 10 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: by Josh Pakes, the hands up Fierstown. Field caught by 11 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 1: digs into the end zone. Touchdown Buffalo. Josh Shandon threw 12 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: a heater right into the mid section of Stefan Diggs. 13 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: The Bills regained the lead. Basicly goes in motion right side. 14 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: Here comes the snamp. Pressure on Allen has to dive 15 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: out of the pocket, flows it down Field. Got a 16 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: man wide open touchdown Cole Beasley touchdown Buffalo. He was 17 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 1: wide opening the end zone and Josh found him for 18 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: the Buffalo touchdown. Tannahill under center, takes turns, gives it 19 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: to Henry. The Bills crashed down on him. He fights 20 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: his way into the end zone. Touchdown Tennessee. Man. He's 21 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: tough to bring down and Josh takes back to throw, 22 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: looks fires into the end zone. It is caught. Touchdown 23 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: Tommy Sweeney. Touchdown Buffalo. Josh flips it, flips it again 24 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: and a pass to Josh Allen White open. They got it, 25 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 1: They got it. Josh Allen catches it for the two 26 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 1: point conversion to pass from Dawson Knox and the game 27 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: goes to Derrick. Henry charges over the left side, breaking tackles, 28 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: dives into the end zone, touchdown Tennessee. The lead changes 29 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: again and now the Titans have it with three h 30 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: five left to play, twenty seconds on the play clock. 31 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: Takes his snap, dives forward and the Titans stop him. 32 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: They stop him short of the goal line and the 33 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: first down line. Titans take over the crowd in a frenzy. 34 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: All right, that is your game rewind brought to you 35 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: by Toshiba, the official copier company of the Buffalo Bills. 36 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you here on a Buffalo 37 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: football Tuesday after the Monday night lost to the Titans 38 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 1: by the score of thirty four thirty one. Tough one 39 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: to swallow. The players said as much, especially when you're 40 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: on the doorstep of victory and you can't get through 41 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: the door, which was the case on fourth and one 42 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: at the three yard line with twenty two seconds remaining. 43 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: And people will analyze this to the umpteenth degree. We'll 44 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: probably do the same over the next two hours. And 45 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: there's a lot of ground to cover here. But I 46 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 1: you know, Steve, I'm sure you've got a main takeaway 47 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: from this. I've got one too. Where do you come 48 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: down on this thing? Two good football teams and Titans 49 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: played really well in the win. Bills left some things 50 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: on the table, some plays you'd like to have back, 51 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: some good calls, good non calls. Officiating wise, the Titans 52 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: managed to just really, to me, stay alive in this 53 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: game until they actually found themselves, and then they scored 54 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,799 Speaker 1: on their last six possessions. You got a hand it 55 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: to him. They their offense came alive four touchdowns, two 56 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: field goals in their last six possessions. That's if you 57 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: exclude the kneel down play at the end. The Titans 58 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: came back strong in this game. The Bills matched him 59 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: score for score, up until the final as you saw 60 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: it there. We were watching it that highlight. Everybody who's 61 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: the Bills fan has seen it. You know, when Josh 62 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: tried to sneak it over and get the first down, 63 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: he slipped. They got the Titans got a really good 64 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: jump on the snap, got a good surge, Josh slips, 65 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: couldn't get it, couldn't get his weight behind it or 66 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: his leverage, and you know, he got stopped short. He 67 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: slipped and went down immediately, and that was it. So 68 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: you can go back and there's like four plays in 69 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: this game early on that kept the Titans in it. 70 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: The seventy six yard run was great. You know, it's 71 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: a great play and you can say, you know, people 72 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: have said, you know, Poorlier got held, he did no call, 73 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: You're not whatever. I mean, you're not gonna get that 74 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: call every time. He'd like to see it called because 75 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: we've seen it called. More innocuous holding against the Bills 76 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: and another thing. We get to holding penalties later, but 77 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: that happened. The seventy six yard run was a play 78 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: that kept the Titans in it. The bopped arm interception 79 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: where they hit Josh's throwing arm just as he's coming 80 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: forward with it that leads to an interception, the pass 81 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: interference off the top of Micah Hyde's helmet that ends 82 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: up in a completion, So they declined the pass interference 83 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: call and then that fourth down play at the end. 84 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 1: But those first three plays were all in the first half, 85 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: I think, or early in the third quarter, and they 86 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: kept the Titans in it, and that was what it 87 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: took in a game like that. The Bill scored thirty 88 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: one points and had a chance to go even more 89 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: than that. Weren't good enough in the red zone, no question. 90 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: But there's a good team, two good teams, a lot 91 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: of lead changes, it's back and forth. Um you walk 92 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 1: out of there with a loss and a tight game 93 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: like that with a chance to win at the end, 94 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 1: I thought, I thought the Bills would scored a ton 95 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: of points. They did, and they left a lot of 96 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: points on the table after scoring thirty pos You could 97 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: argue they left fourteen points on the table, right because 98 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: the holding penalty on Emmanuel Sanders that negated the Dawson 99 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: knocks touchdown on the end. A round play only ends 100 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 1: up in a field goal drive. So there's four points. 101 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: There's four points right there. An identical holding call to 102 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: the poor yer hold on the seventy six yard touchdown 103 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: run by Derrick Henry negated an Isam McKenzie touchdown on 104 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: a kickoff that would have given the Bills a chance 105 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: to tie it up or go take that's another seven there, 106 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 1: that's another seven and then you can talk about, you know, 107 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: they get the first down on fourth and one, at 108 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: the very least you're kicking a field goal there, right, So, 109 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: and Josh's stats looked great. He threw for three fifty five, 110 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: had like five or something or this one's not on job. Yeah, 111 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: he played great, but it's almost the point now in 112 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: this game where you think, wow, you know, he wasn't perfect, 113 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 1: but he was more than good enough to win this 114 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: football game. It's almost the point where guys, can you know, 115 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: how much can the guy do? My biggest takeaway from 116 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: this game is at the line of scrimmage. The Bills 117 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: got beat on both sides of the ball. They did 118 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: not win the line of scrimmage battle in this game. 119 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: The Titans were the more physical football team and they 120 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 1: couldn't match it. They could not mitch match the physicality 121 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 1: of the Tennessee Titans. In this game. We saw that 122 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: on offense with their inability to reset the line of 123 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: scrimmage in the run game on a consistent basis. And 124 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 1: we saw that from at times a pass protection perspective, 125 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 1: and we saw it in short yardage at the end 126 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: of the game. Defensively, we saw it in terms of 127 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: being unable to shed blocks and make plays on Derrick Henry. 128 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry seventy six yard touch down run. I know 129 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: the holding call was there. That's one guy that got 130 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: held out of eleven. Okay, he didn't get touched on 131 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: the seventy six yard touchdown run. Scott free through the 132 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: hole and thanks for coming. And that wasn't the only play. 133 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: He was getting to the second level with a full 134 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: head of steam because nobody was laying a hand on him. 135 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: And coach McDermott said it after the game. We gotta 136 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: get off blocks. They could not do it. This was 137 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: the most sacked quarterback in football coming into this game. 138 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: He was getting sacked once every ten dropbacks. Twenty nine 139 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: dropbacks did not get touched, no pass rush to speak of. 140 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: They got beat at the line of scrimmage on both 141 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: sides of the ball, and I think that was the 142 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: difference in the football game. Yes, there were some bad 143 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: penalties that cost them points, there's no question about it. 144 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: But they got physically overmatched at the line of scrimmage 145 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: on offense and defense. And that's a concern for me 146 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: going forward. Do I expect the Bills to win the 147 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: battle at the line of scrimmage every week out in seven, 148 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: in seventeen, eighteen weeks, whatever the heck we play now, No, 149 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: they're not gonna win that every week. But to see 150 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: both sides of the ball have a tough time winning 151 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: consistently at the line, I mean, it's hard not to 152 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: think about what coach says all the time. It starts 153 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: up front, and that's where it started and ended last night, 154 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: and it costs the Bills a game you could argue 155 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: they very easily could have won. Oh yeah, the Bills 156 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: are And I'll say this and I'll say it again. 157 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: They're the same team they would have. They're the same 158 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 1: team if they'd scored the touchdown. They're gonna be the 159 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 1: same team today. You don't feel good about that game 160 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: last night because that you know, Josh slips on that 161 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: last fourth down conversion. Yeah, but if you know, if 162 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: they push it in right there, if he sneaks it 163 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: and they get a surgeon and they roll into the 164 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: end zone, everybody's you know, you can't none of this 165 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: stuff goes away. You still have these same problems, but 166 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: you feel better about your team because they won in 167 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: the game where they didn't play their best. Um that's 168 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: gonna happen, particularly in a season where it's so long. Yeah, 169 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: you're not gonna win this the battle. But I think 170 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: most of what we have seen from this Bill's team, 171 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: even last night, was was they're a great football team. 172 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: They really are. And then they got beat on the 173 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: road in a primetime game and a team that was 174 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 1: highly motivated and had something. They were supremely shorthanded, and 175 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: they got injured on the way throughout that stateium, And 176 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: you got to tip your hat to the Titans. They 177 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: put through put out a phenomenal effort with their left 178 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: tackle out, their corners out there, didn't have the corners 179 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: out already. Then they went down further down them. They 180 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: had three healthy corners at the end of the game, 181 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: so they you really got to tip your hat to 182 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: their ability. Now Josh carved him up too, but it 183 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 1: was their pass rush that really gave him a chance 184 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: to win that game, and kept Josh on the run 185 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: and he had to get rid of the ball, and 186 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: they were on the plays where Josh could stand back 187 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: there and throw it. He carved him up big time 188 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: and they knew it. So they were really really working 189 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: hard to get pressure on him, and to their credit, 190 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,439 Speaker 1: they did. That game went back and forth Titans as much, 191 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: whether you like him or not. And I know a 192 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: lot of Bills fans have a lot of angst and 193 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: for a team that's not in your division, there's a 194 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: lot of people that have a lot of bad feelings 195 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 1: about the Titans, all going all the way back. But 196 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 1: they're a well coached team. They're mentally tough. They play 197 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: with an edge and that goes a long way in 198 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: games that are tight like this. And I don't think 199 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: and I think the Bills gotten hit in the mouth 200 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 1: last night, and while they responded, they just didn't get 201 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: enough done. They couldn't get it done enough. And I'll 202 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: say this too. So far this season, I think the 203 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: best player that the Buffalo Bills have faced by far 204 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: is Derrick Henry. There's and it's not even close. It's 205 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: not even close. And the games they've played so far 206 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry has been the gold standard is especially player. 207 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: I wouldn't debate that for a second. T J. Watts 208 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: probably in the conversation as well from the week one meeting. 209 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, he's a special player. But it's 210 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: not like this guy was carrying Bills defenders on his 211 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: back down the field. I think Coach when he speaks 212 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: to the media later today after watching the film, he 213 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: will again reiterate what he said last night, which was 214 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 1: our defenders have to get off blocks quicker. It's one 215 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: thing to be in your gap. If you don't get 216 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: off the block to make a play, what are you doing? 217 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: And that was a problem last night. There were also 218 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 1: some times where the tackling was not fundamentally sound. And 219 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: this is a coaching staff that harps on the fundamentals. 220 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,839 Speaker 1: You can't tell me that the Bill's coaching staff did 221 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,959 Speaker 1: not put these guys through tackle drills this past week. 222 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: They knew this was going to be a mash it 223 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: up game with a running back like Derrick Henry involved, 224 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: who was the focal point of their offense. I mean, 225 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: say whatever you want about Ryan Tannehill, the guy is 226 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: the guys along for the ride. Okay, he is. He 227 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: doesn't carry that team in any way, shape or four. 228 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: He's a facilitator, no question, he's now he's good enough. 229 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,599 Speaker 1: I mean they and I'll say this, can make a 230 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: few plays. Give give their coaching staff and their their 231 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: philosophy credit. They're not asking him to do anything because 232 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 1: they know is he's limited. But he and they he 233 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,719 Speaker 1: does just enough. And I'll tell you this, with a J. 234 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: Brown and Julio Jones out there at the same time, 235 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 1: they're a different animal because they're matchup problems for any team, 236 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: even teams with two great corners, whether you whether they 237 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: can run or not, because both of them are coming 238 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: off hamstring injuries. And I was saying this on the 239 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: Bills Field Pass pregame show last night. They don't have 240 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: to run fast. They're not running nine routes. All they 241 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: gotta do is run to the sticks and post up 242 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: because they're both two hundred and twenty five pounds and 243 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: six foot four and box out defend the NFL of 244 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: this current date, and the Bills were been a shares 245 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: of this one time at least last night as well 246 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: on a Steph Diggs target. Those guys just run down 247 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: the field you get a nine, right if the quartersbacks 248 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: in trouble, put some air under it, throw it a 249 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: little bit short, have the receiver turnaround, come back to it. 250 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: Pass interference is as good as a completion. That's a 251 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: thing now in the NFL. Teams are using it and 252 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: they're going to it, and it's becoming more and more 253 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: prevalent each and every game you watch. The Bills got 254 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: away with it last night. Steph Diggs down the middle 255 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: of the field. They call it on the five. You know, 256 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: they threw the flag as a point of initial contact. 257 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: Bills first and goal on the five from midfield. It 258 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: was a huge play and it set the Bills up 259 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: for a score. So it's a thing that happens. And 260 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: with two receivers like Julio Jones and A J. Brown, 261 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: it's even more a weapon for a team like Tennessee 262 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 1: because they're gonna get some man coverage when teams kind 263 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: of throw men at the box to stop Derrick Henry 264 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,319 Speaker 1: in a play action and all the stuff that goes 265 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: with that. So all that stuff was in play last night, 266 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: and I gotta tell you, I know it's Bills fans 267 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 1: are kind of sick to their stomach. Today, and I'm 268 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: with them. I mean, I was calling for a blowout. 269 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: I knew it was gonna be a thirty burger forty 270 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: I'm forty burger for the Bills even and they left 271 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,839 Speaker 1: points on the board. But I that was that was 272 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: two pretty good football teams last night. It was a 273 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: really really good football game. Seven lead changes set a 274 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: record for most in a Monday night football game in 275 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: league history. So the Dolphins are the next opponent on 276 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: the schedule after the bye. This week, the Bills will 277 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: host Miami, reeling Miami. Who knows where there'll be two 278 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: weeks from now on Halloween at home? Yeah, here in Buffalo. 279 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: So Twitter conversation for you today, Does the outcome of 280 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: last night's game against the Titans raise an area of 281 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: concern for you? And if so, what is that? You 282 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: can give us a call at eight oh three oh 283 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: five fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two five 284 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: fifty where he can hit us up on the tweet 285 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: sheet at one Bill's Live. A lot of people have 286 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: commented on the footing for Josh Allen. I've tried to 287 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: watch this replay as much as possible. I am not 288 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: one hundred percent certain of this, but I will say 289 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: I thought the reason he lost his footing was because 290 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: of the penetration on the play. Defensive lineman Jeffrey Simmons, 291 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: who is their best defensive tackle for the Titans, penetrated 292 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: so well he drove John Feliciano back towards Josh Allen, 293 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 1: and that is why he lost his footing. I want 294 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: to say that part of Feliciano's body hit Josh Allen's 295 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: knee as he tried to step forward, and it caused 296 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: him to be unable to plant his foot in the 297 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: ground and drive off of it. So once you lose 298 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: your footing like that, you know he's getting pushed back. No, 299 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: he did kind of slip, but he's already getting bumped 300 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: on the hip by Dion Dawkins. As we watch it 301 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: and our MSG viewers watch it, Dawkins was trying to 302 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 1: come in to they had stacked, they'd overloaded the interior 303 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: of the line. They were like two guys over, Feliciano 304 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: and Dawkins, who's gotten crushed for getting roll over. He's 305 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: coming hard inside a hill right sation, and when you're 306 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: going sideways and the guy's coming forward, you have no 307 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: chance to bear up and hold that guy off, and 308 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: that's you know that it was. I think it's one 309 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: of those points where, yeah, certainly you no question it 310 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: was the right thing to do. I was I was 311 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: totally on doing going forward and stuff. You got this, 312 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: You got Josh the quarterback. He's a great short yardage back. Um. 313 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: There was a little bit of a hectic, helter skelter 314 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: kind of feel to the play when he did he 315 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: get in? Did he get the first down? Are they 316 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: gonna review the play on the first down? You know, 317 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: he kind of he hurdled a guy again, went high 318 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: in the air, came down right at the marker. They 319 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: marked him short. Well, then what are you gonna do? 320 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: Are you gonna call a time and the caucus ticking? 321 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: Are you gonna call a time out? Are they gonna 322 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: get reviewed? Do you get reviewed automatically because it's so close, 323 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: because it's within the last two and if you can't 324 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: challenge it, so you gotta kind of keep going. So 325 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: all this stuff's going on, you're gonna get lined up, 326 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: Are you gonna run? Are you gonna go forward? Or 327 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: you're not gonna go So there's like a million things 328 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: going on. So there's a little bit of a helter 329 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: skelter feel to the last play or two of the 330 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: game right there, and even though the Bills got lined up, 331 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 1: got ready, they were gonna do it, had time to 332 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: do it. You had that feel of it like it 333 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: was all a blur real quick and they didn't have 334 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: a chance and you call a time out there maybe 335 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: and a lot of people said you waste it or whatever, 336 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: but that had that feel of everybody's like, gott us 337 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: just take a deep breath here. They had one time 338 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 1: out left at that point, right on the fourth down play, 339 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 1: so if they get the first down, I think what 340 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: I would have done is quick, get everybody up to 341 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: the line. It's spike it. Now it's second down, and 342 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 1: you still have with one time out left the run 343 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 1: pass option. The Tennessee defense has to play you honest 344 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: now because you can run the ball and still call 345 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: time out to stop the clock. So I would have 346 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: tried to hurry up to the line. If we get it, 347 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: spike it. What do you have twelve seconds left? Second 348 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: and goal from the one or two? You run two plays? 349 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, maybe three if you hurt right. So 350 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: all of that's going on, and you know they and 351 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 1: to their credit, Tennessee was on it. Man. They jumped 352 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: the snap and then they reduced down and they reduced 353 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: down and the Bills, you know, I had to kind 354 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: of try and crash it in there. And when they're 355 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 1: crashing into get to keep those guys from penetrating the 356 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: Bills offensive line are kind of going sideways and tense's 357 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: going straight. And look, I'm not going to pretend to 358 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: be an expert on offensive line play. But as soon 359 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: as Jeffrey Simmons reduces down and now Dion Dawkins shoulder 360 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 1: is even with Jeffrey simmons helmet and he's angling down 361 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: to the guard, the job. And I saw a very 362 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: interesting breakdown of the play with ESPN analyst Jeff Saturday, 363 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: a former center who has done more than his share 364 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,199 Speaker 1: of quarterback sneaks with Peyton Manning with the Colts and 365 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: his for his whole career, and he said, Dion Dawkins job. 366 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: Once Jeffrey Simmons reduces down, he's got to get his 367 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: helmet to Jeffrey simmons left leg, Yeah, and get across there. 368 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: That's impossible. Yeah, I'm sorry they have you can't ask 369 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: him to get there from where he was standing up. 370 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: I thought it was their start their splits to begin 371 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: with here a little wide. They gotta when they're gonna 372 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: they're gonna sneak that, and they got to anticipate it, 373 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: you'd like. And what you want to do as an 374 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: offensive line is try and get the defense to line 375 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,360 Speaker 1: up on you. But if they don't, you gotta reduce 376 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: down your own. But you gotta get zero, like foot 377 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: to foot on your splits. You can't have a foot 378 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: between you and the guard. You gotta go. You gotta 379 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: match their ability to get night. You gotta get narrow. 380 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: You gotta lower your splits down. But like I said, 381 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: a lot of that is reaction time, getting off on 382 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: the jump on the snap, and and the Titans did it. 383 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: The Titans did Here's another thing that I just I 384 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: wondered about. You have the sneak called Coach McDermott said 385 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: last night after the game that as far as quarterback responsibility, 386 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 1: there is a read element to what he's looking at 387 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 1: prior to the sneak, which for me translates to he's 388 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: got to make a decision on whether to stick with 389 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 1: the play or change it. Is that what he's saying there. 390 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's changing the play, but it 391 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: might be changing where he's going to die again, changing 392 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 1: the gap, could be any of that. So yeah, and 393 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 1: I'm not going to pretend to know either. There is 394 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 1: a part of me that openly wonders, though, would you 395 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: have been better served running it to the right side 396 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: behind your two biggest offensive linemen instead of running it 397 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: to the left two of your smaller offensive lineman. Feliciano 398 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 1: is the smallest offensive lineman on the line, and he's 399 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: going against the best defensive tackle blocking down on him 400 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 1: defensively for the Titans, and he's already got the leverage 401 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: battle one with Dion Dawkins before the football is even snapped. 402 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I know this is armchair quarterback stuff here, 403 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,959 Speaker 1: but three hundred and fifty pound Darryl Williams and three 404 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: and twenty eight pound Spencer Brown sounds like a better 405 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 1: proposition to me in that situation. Yeah, I know it's 406 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,199 Speaker 1: easy to say, now, Yeah, when you trust, when you 407 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: trust your quarterback, you trust him and if he sees something, 408 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: he's gonna take it. But and it's it's whenever you're 409 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: in a close game like this or an overtime game 410 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: like this. This is this is how overtime rules get changed. 411 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: The game ends, and everybody wanted to see a little 412 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: bit more of it, so they change the rules so 413 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: next time you will get to see a little bit 414 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: more of that game. And if you get into a 415 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 1: situation like this where your quarterback and your team and 416 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: you get into a spot where it's do or die 417 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 1: on one play to end the game or keep your 418 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: chances alive, and you miss it, it's like, well you 419 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: should have done the other thing. You know, that's a 420 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 1: marvel ev I don't think there is any question that 421 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 1: coach McDermott made the right decision to go for it there. 422 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 1: I think he was one hundred percent correct, not only 423 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: in terms of what the analytics said, which said it 424 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: was your wind, probability was better by going for it, 425 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: but I think he also took into consideration the nature 426 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 1: of the football game. The facts were these. The defense 427 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: had given up six consecutive scoring drives to the Titans. 428 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: They could not stop them. You had to end the 429 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: game as quickly as possible, and that was the opportunity 430 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 1: that sat in front of them. On the fourth and one. 431 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: You convert the fourth and one you call it, you 432 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: spike the ball. You got three cracks at the end 433 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: zone with probably about twelve seconds left. That's your best 434 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 1: case scenario getting out of there with a victory. Now 435 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: you can argue whether it should have come to that. 436 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 1: It probably shouldn't have because Dawson Knox should have been 437 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: in the end zone on the end a round without 438 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,879 Speaker 1: a penalty, and Isaiah McKenzie should have been in the 439 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: end zone on a one hundred one yard kick return. Yeah, 440 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 1: they didn't happen. So now that's where that's what you 441 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 1: were faced with at the end of the football game. 442 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,479 Speaker 1: It probably shouldn't have been that close. You probably shouldn't 443 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: have been behind, Yeah, but you were, so I mean 444 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: that's the way it goes. I mean, give the Tennessee 445 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: Titans some credit on all the things they did, and 446 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: you know, you it's just like it was with the 447 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 1: Kansas City game, where you come out of there and 448 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: you think, wow, we could have you know, we could 449 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 1: have gotten a lot more points out of there. The 450 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: Chiefs were thinking that the officials were against them, and 451 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: the Bills fans were saying the same thing along with 452 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: the announcers. Chris collins Worth last week in the Kansas 453 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 1: City game. It goes on both sides of the thing. 454 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 1: What you have to do is you got to overcome 455 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: the things that don't go your way and you got 456 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: to play better even when they do go your way. 457 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: And the Bills last night, I think the Titans put 458 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: forth a supreme effort. Tip your hat to them. They 459 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 1: and I just you know, you're right. They were physically 460 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 1: more It seemed like they were more physical, war engaged, 461 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: and more aggressive team on the field that night last night, 462 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: and it and it paid off in a win for 463 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: Let's go to the phones at eight three, five fifty 464 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: one eighty eight five fifty we lead off with Jennifer 465 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: and Albany. Jennifer, what do you have for us? You're 466 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: on One Bill's Live. Hey, guys, we love you. Thanks 467 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: thanks for having me on listen to the show every week. Also, 468 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: I'm really happy to say I went to Kansas City 469 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 1: last week, so that was a great experience. All right, 470 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 1: I pick the right one. I did pick the right 471 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: one season ticket holder and make it across the state 472 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: for the games. But I don't have any problems to 473 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: play calling. At the end of the game, when you 474 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: ask the question about what's kind of concerning moving forward. 475 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: I'd have to say the red zone. Um, I don't 476 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 1: get it. With all the firepower we have in Josh Allen, 477 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: we don't have a big back. I think we're dynamite 478 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 1: twenty to twenty, even twenty to ten. But I feel 479 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: like the first two years it was just Josh Allen time. 480 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: He would just run it in, make a play, and 481 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: now I don't know what it is. We'll just we 482 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: just don't score. I mean we get field goals, great. 483 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: I mean we're putting up thirty points, but you know, 484 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: to be a championship team, we got to finish that. Yeah. 485 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: I don't disagree with you at all, Jennifer, and thanks 486 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: for the call. We gotta move along, get to other 487 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: people that are on hold here at eighty three five fifty. 488 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 1: But the Bills right now are twenty sixth in the 489 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 1: NFL in red zone touchdown efficiency twenty six at just 490 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: over fifty five percent. They lead the league in red 491 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: zone possessions with twenty nine and they're tied for fourth 492 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: in the league with seventeen successful red zone possessions resulting 493 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,719 Speaker 1: in a touchdown, But their efficiency is twenty sixth in 494 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: the league in half of their games this season, they 495 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: are below fifty percent efficiency in the red zone. Yeah, 496 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: that's the thing that's I think different about twenty twenty 497 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: one than it was in twenty twenty. They're not yeah, 498 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: you know, they don't scores often when they get down there. 499 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:41,719 Speaker 1: Last year they were twelfth in the league in red 500 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 1: zone touchdown. They were better last year. And I think 501 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 1: one thing and Jennifer, you're right, I think that is 502 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 1: the thing that I noticed as well, that is their 503 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: red zone efficiency. They're moving the football, they're hard to 504 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: get off the field, and they're getting it in chunks 505 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,400 Speaker 1: when they need to, and they even left a lot 506 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 1: of plays out on the field yesterday last night. I thought, 507 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: So they're really playing at a high level right now, 508 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: but they're having trouble finishing drives at the rate which 509 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,239 Speaker 1: you'd like to see them. And I think some of 510 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,719 Speaker 1: it has to do with how successful and what that 511 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 1: has been successful for them in the past, and I 512 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: think they need to search for and maybe they found 513 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 1: it in their tight end, you know, sweeneycot One last night, 514 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 1: Dawson Knox has been a big factor down there for 515 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: them this year. I think they are still kind of 516 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,640 Speaker 1: fleshing out what they can and cannot do down there, 517 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: aside from just letting Josh take the snapgun the shotgun 518 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: snap and put the ball under his arm and follow 519 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: everybody around to right or all the way everybody around 520 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: to the left. You know, Josh has been such a 521 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,199 Speaker 1: force down there in the red zone because of his 522 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: throwing ability, but also mostly because he's a threat to run. 523 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: The defenses respect that. Now defenses are saying, Okay, we 524 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: don't want you to do that. You're we're not gonna 525 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,239 Speaker 1: let you do that this time. So the Bills have 526 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: to flesh out some way they can be effective in 527 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: the red zone that doesn't have to do with number seventeen, 528 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: or at least not so much. And when they do that, 529 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: they'll their efficiency will raise. But I don't think they've 530 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 1: figured that out yet. Eight oh three five fifty number 531 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 1: to get on board, we go out to the west 532 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: coast to Nick in La Nick. What do you have 533 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: for us here all one Bill's life. I've got two questions. 534 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: First is why are the Bills running Josh Allen as quarterback? 535 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: Sneaking He's getting hit in the shoulders with seven hundred 536 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,880 Speaker 1: pounds of man each time. And the second question, if 537 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: you want him to last sixteen years as a quarterback, 538 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 1: that seems bad. The other one is where was the 539 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 1: spearing call on the guy who got carted off? Yeah, 540 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: Taylor Lawan on him or the guy who hit him 541 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: on him? He led with his helmet. I would agree 542 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: with Nick one hundred percent on that, and Nick, thanks 543 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 1: for the call. I would agree with him one hundred percent. 544 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: Taylor Lawan is not known as the cleanest player in 545 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: the league by any means. He'll cheap shot somebody if 546 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: he gets the opportunity and doesn't think the officials are looking, 547 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: and he hurls himself into the play late number one 548 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: and then number two, he leads with his helmet. I 549 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 1: mean he ran the risk of paralyzing himself with the 550 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: way he hurled himself in there like a missile. That 551 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 1: is spearing in every sense of the description of what 552 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: that is. I mean, he's got his helmet down and 553 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 1: he's looking to hit somebody. That's a problem. Fortunately he's okay, 554 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: but that's not the way you go into a pile 555 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: to try to push the play forward. You just don't 556 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 1: do that. He's dropping his head and he is looking 557 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,640 Speaker 1: to land it on somebody. I mean, that's what he's doing. 558 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: He's drilling somebody in the kidney there. It's just it's 559 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: not good football. As far as Josh Allen is concerned. 560 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: Why do they use him on sneaks Because he converts 561 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: eighty one percent of the time in his career. That's why. 562 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: Because he's a big, strong athlete. That's about as close 563 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: to a sure thing in football that you're gonna get. Yeah, 564 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: they're gonna they'll do that until either Josh says, hey, 565 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: I've had enough of that, or it starts not converting 566 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: them often enough for their tastes. And so you know 567 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: that's he is and has been. You mentioned it, Nick 568 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: that in his career he's become probably the best short 569 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: yardage back in the league because he's got the ball 570 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: in his hands all the time and he can throw 571 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 1: it so and it is a risk, but everything in 572 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: football is a risk. It's a physical sport. The thing 573 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: about the quarterback sneak is, yeah, there's a lot of 574 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: weight there, but there's not a lot of velocity behind it, 575 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: and that's a difference. So guys are on him, they 576 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 1: pile on him, but they do it slow you're not 577 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: getting guys rocketing in in one hundred miles an hour 578 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 1: and getting a clean shot on him. They may jump 579 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: on the pile, but that's not as dangerous as a collision. 580 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: So that's one thing as well. Now, the thing about 581 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: it is that's a quarterback sneak, from what I'm describing, 582 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: is less dangerous than having the guy in the shotgun 583 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: and then running that power quarter back. Student body right, 584 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: student body left little behind some guys because then people 585 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: are running full speed. Somebody get a clean shot at him. 586 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 1: That's more dangerous. Plus he gets to the sidelines, tries 587 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: to step over guys or stepping around guys, and then 588 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 1: your legs are in trouble and you got you know, 589 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 1: you get guys clean shots at your quarterback. So the 590 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: quarterback sneak is actually as safe a run as you're 591 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: gonna have. Now, it's not comfortable and it's mean and 592 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 1: nasty down in there, but you're not gonna get a 593 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: big time shot at your quarterback. Break time for us here. 594 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: More of your phone calls when we return. Rick and 595 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: Nashville and CJ and Niagara Falls will lead us off. 596 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: But we'll try to get to everybody here In the 597 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: next segment at eight oh three, five fifty, did the 598 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: outcome of last night's game raise an area of concern 599 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 1: for you?

Chris 608 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: Brown Knocks broke his hands after wasn't I believe it 609 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 1: was after? Yeah? Um? So he was out there pretty 610 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: much as a decoy on the play because he was 611 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 1: on the field. Was he I believe he was? He 612 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: got it? He that was that the two point Maybe not, 613 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 1: because I don't the touchdown before the two point version, 614 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: So yeah, Knocks might have broken his hand on that 615 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 1: play on that play, yeah, um yeah. And Josh was 616 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: trying to wave that play off when it was getting 617 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 1: called in because he knew what Dawson was dealing with 618 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: and Dawson's like, forget it, I'll get it to got it, 619 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 1: I'll get it to you because people on Twitter, people 620 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: on Twitter, we're criticizing his throw and it's like nobody 621 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: knew he had a bust in hand, which was confirmed 622 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 1: today by NFL Networks Mike Garafolo, who said that he 623 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: basically is reporting that Dawson Knox has a broken hand 624 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 1: suffered in the game. No word on how long he 625 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 1: could be out. Coach mcdermot's scheduled to address the media 626 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: in the three o'clock hour today, so we'll see if 627 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: there is an update or a prognosis as to how 628 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: long he might be sidelined, if at all. Sometimes, I mean, 629 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: obviously that's going to impact his receiving ability, but can 630 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 1: he play Is it something he can play with or not. 631 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: We'll see if we get any clarity on that from 632 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 1: coach McDermot. Leader this afternoon. We want to get back 633 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 1: to the phones eight oh three oh five fifty. Did 634 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: the outcome of Monday night's game will raise an area 635 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: of concern for you? You can let us know. We 636 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: go to Rick in Nashville, though, to lead us off 637 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: in this segment, Rick, what do you have for us 638 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: here on One Bill's Live. Yeah, I really didn't raise 639 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: a concern. It just kind of underline when it's just 640 00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: been the concern. He's the last three years. You take 641 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: Josh Allen out of the equation, our short yardage is terrible. 642 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: I mean, to get third and a half inch, we 643 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 1: can't do it. We have nobody who's a people mover 644 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 1: in the interior, and we would played teams that have 645 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: a good defensive tackle like Hayward with Pittsburgh or last 646 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: night or the guy with the Redskins who names skips 647 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: my mind. Um, they dominate, they absolutely kick. But along 648 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 1: that we get no push and the game plans don't 649 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: seem to be like, Okay, we know interior lineman and 650 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: they just flat would beat him snap after snap. I 651 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: don't know why we watch film and I mean they 652 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: got to see it. Everybody else sees it. Rick, what 653 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 1: would you what would you do? What would you do different? Yeah, 654 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: that's the problem. I guess you got to play who 655 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: you have. I do like Brown at tackle, he's physical, 656 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,479 Speaker 1: he'll push the pile, but he's like the only one 657 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: who's willing to do it. I was gonna say. I 658 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 1: live here in Nashville, and the Titans talk, as it 659 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: was last year, is we are more physical than they are. 660 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: We can push them around. And they're not wrong that 661 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: they didn't do it. Yeah, they're not wrong. I mean 662 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: they were. They were the more physical team last night. 663 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 1: They're one hundred percent right about that. And I mean 664 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 1: it was as evident as the hand in front of 665 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: your face. They beat him on the line of scrimmage 666 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: on both sides of the ball. Not the entire game, 667 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 1: but for the majority of it. And that's why Derrick 668 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 1: Henry was running untouched to the second level far too 669 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,359 Speaker 1: many times. I'll say this offensively for the Bills when 670 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 1: they did not. When the Bills offensive line did protect Alan, 671 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: he carved him up big time. He did for three 672 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: fifty five and a couple you know touchdowns and all 673 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: that stuff. It just didn't happen. Well, I mean, he 674 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: scored thirty one points, but it didn't happen enough. And 675 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 1: on the defensive side, you're right when you've got you know, 676 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 1: basically a defensive lineman carry in the ball as well, 677 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: you know, six four, two hundred and fifty pound guy 678 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: running up the middle two that's an you know, that's 679 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,399 Speaker 1: that's a physical presence that a lot of teams can't 680 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: match up with. And that's why Tennessee is perennial contender 681 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: in their division and in the playoffs. And you know 682 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: it's because they are a big, physical team with a 683 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: big physical running back and not let's face it's a 684 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,839 Speaker 1: throwing league. And these teams that are doing that are 685 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 1: able to do that at a high level, particularly with 686 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 1: a guy like like Derrick Henry or guy like Lamar Jackson, 687 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 1: the guys that they unfill, although all the guys are 688 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 1: hurt in Baltimore. But these teams that are run first 689 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 1: or run centric have kind of a leg up on 690 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 1: the rest of the league because the least rest of 691 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 1: the league is built to stop the pass and to 692 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,359 Speaker 1: pass rush. They don't really have the personnel or the 693 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: scheme or the attitude of, Hey, we're gonna go out 694 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 1: for sixty minutes and pound the ball and stop you 695 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: from pounding it. That's what made Jim Harbaugh so effected 696 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: when he was coaching the forty nine Ers about eighty 697 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 1: nine years ago, because he just got big old alignment 698 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 1: and started to run the football when everybody else was 699 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,840 Speaker 1: throwing it and it was effective because nobody, nobody was 700 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: built to stop the run. Yeah, eight oh three, oh 701 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,800 Speaker 1: five fifty. Let's go to CJ in Niagara Falls. CJ, 702 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,320 Speaker 1: what do you have for us? I'm not really concerned. 703 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: Even the best teams have an off game. But getting 704 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: back to last night, on that fourth and one, it's 705 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: definitely what's the correct call to make? Now third down 706 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,959 Speaker 1: when Josh runs, ESPN's showing the graphic where he made 707 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,919 Speaker 1: the first down. After the game last night, McDermot durned 708 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: his press conference, said that the referee on the field said, yes, 709 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 1: it was a first down, but he says, the guy 710 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,399 Speaker 1: up in a booth said no, it wasn't. Well, who's 711 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: referee in the game? And secondly, why didn't they have 712 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: a measurement then, because even if he was short, I 713 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 1: still think they're showing the graphic on TV between the 714 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 1: yellow and the black line. I think the black line 715 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,879 Speaker 1: would have been even more closer. But I'm just shut 716 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: up with these referees. They throw a flag when they're 717 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 1: not sposted, they don't when they should. I mean, it's 718 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: just getting ridiculous now and again here last night and 719 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 1: might have crossed the bills. Here you're showing the play 720 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 1: right here now here it is he made that first 721 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 1: down out. How can you say he didn't well, I'll 722 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,239 Speaker 1: hang up it. Listen to you guys. When his back 723 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,799 Speaker 1: comes down, the balls on his right shoulder, so it 724 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 1: looks like the ball's gonna end up short where the 725 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 1: ball is where Josh is right. It's when his elbow 726 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,280 Speaker 1: comes down, he's down and the ball is not there. 727 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 1: And that's that's that simple. The problem is, now you 728 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 1: got the clock to to just contend with and all that. 729 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 1: And if he would have yeah, if you'd whip the 730 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 1: ball backwards and past that line, it might have worked. 731 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: But here's the thing that's we all clamor for the 732 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 1: sky judge to do it and get it right. Uh. 733 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 1: In that estimation you can say, yeah, he didn't make it, 734 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 1: whether you'd think he made it or not. The sky 735 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 1: that's exactly why the sky judge is there to get 736 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 1: a shot like that with the graphic down the line 737 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 1: and say no, he didn't make it, and mark the 738 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,480 Speaker 1: ball at this spot and you'll see here here's the 739 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,359 Speaker 1: shot again. They got a red ball right, the ball 740 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 1: dropped boom, It's it's short. He's out of bounds already 741 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,359 Speaker 1: by the time it comes near the line, calling out 742 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:05,879 Speaker 1: of his hand. I hate to say it, he's short, 743 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 1: you can say. Josh even said after the game, I 744 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: think it was the right call on third down, he 745 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: did not get it. And now they also called for 746 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 1: the clock to run because Josh landed in bounds and 747 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 1: slid out of bounds and the ball came loose. So 748 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: then you got you got all that going around, and 749 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,879 Speaker 1: Sean McDermot came up call a quick time out right 750 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: there and gave his team a chance to go out 751 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: and you know, collect itself. But um, you can well. 752 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,360 Speaker 1: Plus the ref was I have no problem. I didn't understand. 753 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 1: And in fact, there's a couple of things that happened 754 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,720 Speaker 1: on that on the Julio Jones play that we showed earlier, 755 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: where that we're doinked off Micah hides helmet and Julio 756 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 1: Jones tracked the ball and caught it. The official waved 757 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 1: it out of bounds as an incomplete the sky just 758 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,799 Speaker 1: said judge said, and rightfully so said, no, he caught it, 759 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: and that negated the penalty. So it went down as 760 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: a reception. Right here, they're gonna call interference. And then 761 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: right there Julio Jones goes out of bounds and they 762 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: wave him out of bounds incomplete. Well, the sky judge 763 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 1: saw a quick replay and rightfully so said no, he 764 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 1: got his feet in. If this is gonna be this, 765 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 1: it's got to be tighten catch. He drags the toe 766 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 1: at the thirty six yard line or thirty four yard line. 767 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 1: And that's that's why that happened, because they didn't go 768 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 1: The officials on the field said no, that's not a catch. 769 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,399 Speaker 1: The guy upstairs said, yes, it is, and he was right. 770 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:31,280 Speaker 1: So that's why we don't see or hear this sky 771 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: judge chime in like in like we have in years past. 772 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:37,399 Speaker 1: They're just doing it and I think it's a better 773 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: way to go because that it doesn't delay the game 774 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 1: and all that. Now it leaves us here with people, 775 00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,319 Speaker 1: you know, calling in and saying, hey, and it's just 776 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 1: not right. They got it. They got that right, I thought, 777 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 1: in both those situations, whether you like the interference call 778 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 1: or not, but there you go. I mean, that's I 779 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 1: think they got it right, and the and the sky 780 00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,279 Speaker 1: judge is the reason they actually did. And they got 781 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 1: it right fast let's conversely short yardage. Yeah, I agree 782 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 1: with everything he said. Yeah, they they got to play 783 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: better there, they got to play better. Let's go to 784 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 1: Joe and Buffalo. Joe, what do you have for us? 785 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 1: You're on one bills live? Hello, Joe, Joe, All right, 786 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,399 Speaker 1: Joe back on. Hold there, and instead we will go 787 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,440 Speaker 1: to Adam and Williamsville, And what do you have for us? 788 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: You're on one bills live? Hi, thank you. I agree 789 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 1: one hundred percent with going for it, but I grew 790 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 1: zero percent with the play they called. You're going into 791 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 1: the heart of the defense. You had multiple three hundred 792 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,839 Speaker 1: pound defensive lineman bunched up exactly where you want to go. 793 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:42,879 Speaker 1: Plus the old line has been playing spotty all day 794 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 1: long at best. I think the answer you ask someone 795 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 1: what would you do? I think the answer is you 796 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 1: do anything else but that play, because that was the 797 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 1: sumbest things that the possibly you wouldn't win the games 798 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: on the line, and you have one play to do, 799 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:57,839 Speaker 1: and you have second left the middle of the third 800 00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 1: quarter of the first half. Shore run that play. But 801 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,399 Speaker 1: and that situation, I think you call any other play 802 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: and one example, and I remember when they did the 803 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: trick play the cash to Josh the two point conversion. 804 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 1: I thought, right, I thought, at that very moment, they 805 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 1: shouldn't waste that play on the two point conversion. That's 806 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 1: something they should say for when they really really needed 807 00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 1: and that would have been a great place to spring 808 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: that play. Yeah, yeah, easy to say when to use 809 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 1: it because every play is critical. But yeah, I'm in 810 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 1: favor of getting Josh out in space. I like him 811 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:30,239 Speaker 1: a lot better in space than I do in that 812 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 1: situation there. It's easy to say now it's armchair quarterback. 813 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,360 Speaker 1: The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. 814 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: Josh just couldn't make that straight line. Because they got 815 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 1: a nation of the history of why they do that 816 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: at him is Josh is eighty one percent conversion. More 817 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,439 Speaker 1: than that, I mean, he's like fourteen and the only 818 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 1: two times he has not converted on that is one 819 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: when he fumbled the snap, and this year he's four 820 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:57,319 Speaker 1: of six and that career he's eighty one percent conversion. Yeah, 821 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 1: a third and one or fourth and one. So they 822 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 1: did that because they got a history of that play working, 823 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,359 Speaker 1: whether they expect it or not, whether they got three 824 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,239 Speaker 1: hundred pounders across from him or not. Um, it's a 825 00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:10,879 Speaker 1: play that works eighty percent of the time. So that's 826 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 1: why they he did it, and that's why they went 827 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 1: to it. And I get it too. If it doesn't work, 828 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,960 Speaker 1: you should have done the other thing. Absolutely so easy 829 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 1: to say, but that's you know. And I liked it. 830 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,399 Speaker 1: I liked the thought. And Brian Greasy said it last 831 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 1: night in the broadcast. If you gotta win the you're 832 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: gonna go take that team to overtime when you haven't 833 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 1: stopped him in six possessions, and you're gonna leave it 834 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 1: up to a coin flip. Uma, I say, put the 835 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:39,480 Speaker 1: ball in the hands of your best player and we'll 836 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:41,359 Speaker 1: see if you can get six inches. That's what they did. 837 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,319 Speaker 1: That's what they did, and it didn't work. Just didn't work. 838 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: Break time for us more of your phone calls. Next 839 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,319 Speaker 1: at eight oh three, oh five fifty. We're back in 840 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,279 Speaker 1: a moment here on one Bills Live, presented by Collid 841 00:42:50,320 --> 00:43:09,440 Speaker 1: to Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio Reads Milestones. The official 842 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:13,239 Speaker 1: jeweler of the Buffalo Bills is Reads Gens, and this 843 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,319 Speaker 1: week's Reads Milestones is as follows. Bill's quarterback Josh Allen, 844 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:19,360 Speaker 1: played in his fiftieth career game Monday against the Titans. 845 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 1: He is the only quarterback in NFL history to have 846 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 1: eighty plus passing touchdowns and twenty five plus rushing touchdowns 847 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 1: in the first fifty games of his career. Let's get 848 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 1: back to the phones. At eight oh three, five fifty one, 849 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 1: eight fifty two, five fifty we go to Kevin in 850 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,959 Speaker 1: Hamburg next Kevin, thanks for taking my call, sure you bet. 851 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 1: The thing that worries me, even the Bills would have won, 852 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 1: is looking at Derrick Henry and how good he is 853 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: and how people have to be scared of him on 854 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,839 Speaker 1: the other defensive team that prepared for him. The thing 855 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: that worries me the most is that our lack of 856 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:58,840 Speaker 1: running game that basically terrifies defenses, Because I like single 857 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 1: Terry Moss with a mother of the defensive coordinator, I 858 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:05,319 Speaker 1: would not be terrified like King Henry the Guy, or 859 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 1: even the legends of the past that have scared people 860 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 1: sidewise or not, like DeMarcus Allen's Emma Smith. And that 861 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,760 Speaker 1: worries me to make Josh Allen be our main running 862 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: game when a lot of the Super Bowl winners of 863 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 1: the past had deadly running games like those guys I 864 00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:25,839 Speaker 1: mentioned and more Marsanko's John Riggins and that, Well, you're 865 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,840 Speaker 1: you're talking about a game that doesn't exist. Yeah, I 866 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:31,439 Speaker 1: get what you're saying. I'm not saying them. It don't 867 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 1: have to be like that, but at least someone that 868 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:36,359 Speaker 1: scares people more than Yeah. Right, you're thinking we need 869 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:41,000 Speaker 1: the Bills need an upgraded running back. Um, okay, but 870 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: um I think if you have a line blocking effectively, 871 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,400 Speaker 1: your running back is gonna look pretty good. Not to 872 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 1: take anything away from Derrick Henry, he's a special breed 873 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:53,359 Speaker 1: of player, but that line was getting what job done 874 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 1: last night for him. Yeah, even even a nick up 875 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:57,839 Speaker 1: offensive line was doing it. And I'll say this too, 876 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: I don't think the Bills are in in a position 877 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: now where, even having having lost that game last night, 878 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 1: where they need to alter. You know, they're not going 879 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 1: to alter their roster in any major way this year 880 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:16,799 Speaker 1: for sure, unless injuries dictated. They may you know, they 881 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: may tweak it here and now. Like like yesterday, they 882 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 1: had three defensive linemen that were inactive, and usually that's 883 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 1: only two. You know, they have not Zack Moss was 884 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,440 Speaker 1: not active in Week one. He's been active ever since. 885 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:31,840 Speaker 1: So you know, stuff like that will happen. But you 886 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 1: know that if I do not have a problem with 887 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:38,799 Speaker 1: the way this team is built, you can say you 888 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:40,719 Speaker 1: want guys to play better and that kind of thing, 889 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:43,919 Speaker 1: but substantially speaking, I don't want a first round running back, 890 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:47,080 Speaker 1: even if it's Nagi Harris. And I'm just going to 891 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 1: repeat what Brandon Bean said last spring. Our backs are 892 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 1: good enough. We just need to run the ball more effectively. 893 00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 1: What does that mean starts? That means your line's got 894 00:45:56,280 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 1: to be better at executing the blocking assignments. That's that 895 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 1: says to me, and it'll be I'd be interested to 896 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 1: know how the Bill's coaching staff, unvarnished evaluates those guys 897 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:10,319 Speaker 1: this week. After that game, certainly you got to tip 898 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,279 Speaker 1: your hat to how good a team the Titans are, 899 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 1: no question, But by the same token, have you seen 900 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 1: your guys play better than they did? Were they making 901 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,560 Speaker 1: mental mistakes or physical mistakes? Physical mistakes or getting physically 902 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:23,360 Speaker 1: overpowered by a guy who's bigger, faster, or strong or whatever. Okay, 903 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 1: you know, but a mental mistake or bad technique, things 904 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:30,920 Speaker 1: that leave you in a bad position as an offensive line. 905 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 1: That's the stuff you can coach out of them and 906 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 1: stuff that you have been coaching they haven't gotten yet, 907 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 1: so that I'd be really interested to see what the 908 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:42,279 Speaker 1: Bill's coaching staff thought about their play of you know, 909 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:46,239 Speaker 1: every position group of their team yesterday. And one more 910 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:48,359 Speaker 1: thing to credit the Titans on. They've now played Josh 911 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,880 Speaker 1: Allen four times. Coming into the game last night, he 912 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 1: averaged three point five yards per carry. They've done a 913 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 1: very good job of hemming him in and not give 914 00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:59,400 Speaker 1: him escape lanes to scramble and get yardage. Last night 915 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:02,000 Speaker 1: he averages two point nine yards of carry. Now, that 916 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 1: carry for loss obviously hurts the average, but two point 917 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:06,480 Speaker 1: nine is it. He took a couple of sacks, to 918 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 1: a couple of deep sacks. But and I'll say this too, 919 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:11,439 Speaker 1: I didn't have a problem with you know, I'm glad 920 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 1: Josh took those sacks as he you know, you could 921 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 1: see him doing the Pat Mahomes thing and trying to 922 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 1: heave it out of there and having it go the 923 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 1: other way. That's how one of the picks happened. Got 924 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 1: his arm got hit as he threw. Now he wasn't. Yeah, 925 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:24,719 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Oh, he you know, I'd rather 926 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 1: have him take a sack. But on that it's all different. 927 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 1: But yeah, he's stopped trying to heave the ball out 928 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:34,239 Speaker 1: of there up for grabs when he's getting tackled, and 929 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 1: I think that's a better place to be, even though 930 00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 1: it set him up for like a third and twenty 931 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 1: or third and seventeen. At least it's not first and 932 00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 1: ten going the other way for for the Titans. Let's 933 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 1: get one more call in here before the break. We 934 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 1: go to Chuck in Hamburg. Chuck, what do you have 935 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 1: for us? You're on one bill's life, Chuck. Are you're there? 936 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 1: All right? Put Chuck on hold, and we'll go to 937 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 1: Joe in Buffalo. Joe, what do you have for us? 938 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:03,280 Speaker 1: You're on one bills live? Okay, Joe, We'll go on hold. 939 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 1: We'll try one more one last year. We'll go to 940 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,040 Speaker 1: Kenn and Buffalo. Ken, do you have us? What do 941 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:13,320 Speaker 1: you got? Hello? Friends? Hey? Ken, glad you're there. Happy 942 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: Tuesday and happy vacation to me. I wish it was 943 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:19,839 Speaker 1: on better turns here, but yeah, I just wanted to 944 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:22,320 Speaker 1: touch on two things. I hate to keep beating a 945 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,080 Speaker 1: dead horse on that last play, but I was watching 946 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 1: with my lady and she's tapping me saying why are 947 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:29,879 Speaker 1: we going for it? And I said, don't worry, They're 948 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 1: just going to try and draw them off sides. And 949 00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 1: when they ended up snapping the ball, I was surprised myself, 950 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,360 Speaker 1: which makes me ask the question, do you think maybe 951 00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 1: the offensive line was a little caught off guard with 952 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 1: that play? It's interesting, it's interesting to say that, what 953 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:49,040 Speaker 1: else did you have? Ken? Also, to the last caller 954 00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 1: on our run game, I mean, it's easy to make 955 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 1: comparisons when you're comparing yourself to the King Henry literally 956 00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 1: they call him the King, but that guy is an 957 00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:03,440 Speaker 1: absolute freak of nature, predator from the movies. And when 958 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:07,120 Speaker 1: you're comparing your team to a guy like that, yeah, 959 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:10,360 Speaker 1: it's easy to to look a little bit mediocre. But 960 00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:13,919 Speaker 1: I think we just need to execute better and maybe 961 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:15,960 Speaker 1: run the ball a little bit more, even when it's 962 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 1: not in the carriage. You know, gotcha? Thanks for the call, Ken, 963 00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,680 Speaker 1: I will say this about your initial point of trying 964 00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,480 Speaker 1: to draw them off sides. If you watch the play again, 965 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: Josh is in the shotgun before he goes back under center, 966 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,879 Speaker 1: he's in the shotgun and John Feliciano does the hand 967 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:39,520 Speaker 1: signal to Morse to snap the ball, which they had 968 00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:44,520 Speaker 1: been doing all game, to snap the ball on a 969 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:49,680 Speaker 1: silent cadence. He did it, and Morriston snapped the ball. 970 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 1: I thought that was designed to draw the Titans off sides. 971 00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 1: Then that didn't happen. Josh runs up to the line, 972 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:00,319 Speaker 1: gets under center, and it's like, here we go. I'm 973 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,359 Speaker 1: really interested to know what the whole idea was there. 974 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,799 Speaker 1: Was that a miss? Was that a miss snap that 975 00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,000 Speaker 1: should have been had in the shotgun? And was it 976 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 1: a completely different play or was that designed to try 977 00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:13,480 Speaker 1: to draw them off sides? Okay, that didn't work. Let's 978 00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:16,000 Speaker 1: snap the ball. Now, that's what I'm interested in. It's 979 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:19,359 Speaker 1: a good, good observation, and it probably was. You've seen. 980 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 1: We saw the Titans do it, and rightfully so Riddick, 981 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:28,359 Speaker 1: the announcer, Lewis Riddick. Early in the game, they got 982 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 1: an offside penalty on Dion Dawkins because the d line 983 00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:36,840 Speaker 1: shifted late in the snap count quick and Dion flinched, 984 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 1: which gave him a five yard penalty. That's that's coaching 985 00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,680 Speaker 1: and it's game planning. Same thing with a silent count, 986 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:46,080 Speaker 1: you go on a silent count and the other team 987 00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:48,359 Speaker 1: can see what you're doing. You give the signal from 988 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:51,600 Speaker 1: the guard and it's ball snaps, and you do it 989 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 1: and it gets into a rhythm. So you do it 990 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 1: one time in a crystal situation. They're trying to and 991 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:56,759 Speaker 1: they're all hyped up to do it. You give them 992 00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:58,880 Speaker 1: the signal and they jump knowing the snaps coming, and 993 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:02,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't come because you've given him the pump fake. 994 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:04,480 Speaker 1: So all that stuff's coach, and it's it's a good 995 00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 1: observation by you that that that was a possibility, and 996 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:09,920 Speaker 1: I agree with you having him start out and shotgun 997 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:13,160 Speaker 1: then come up to the line of scrimmage. I think, 998 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 1: you know, you there's a lot. There's a lot in there. 999 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the Titans did a nice job. 1000 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:22,120 Speaker 1: They just played it well, and the Bills did not 1001 00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 1: get off the ball as well as they should have. Yeah, 1002 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:30,439 Speaker 1: tough one, for sure. I'll see, you know, we'll dig 1003 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,160 Speaker 1: here in the break and see if we actually have 1004 00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:35,000 Speaker 1: the play before Josh goes up under center. I don't 1005 00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:39,719 Speaker 1: know that we do, but I distinctly remember Feliciano doing 1006 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,839 Speaker 1: the hands signal to to Morris to snap the ball 1007 00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:45,000 Speaker 1: when Josh was still in shotgun. Got to wonder what 1008 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 1: the impetus of that was designing to do? Break time 1009 00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:50,400 Speaker 1: for us here when we come back, it's time for 1010 00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:54,359 Speaker 1: the weekly appearance from Good Morning Football's Kyle Brandt as 1011 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,640 Speaker 1: he weighs in on Monday night's game, which he thought 1012 00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 1: would be a close contest. He picked it to be 1013 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 1: a one point affair in favor of Buffalo. It wasn't that, 1014 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:06,920 Speaker 1: but it was close and it went back and forth. 1015 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,399 Speaker 1: We'll talk to Kyle next here on One Bill's Live, 1016 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:28,279 Speaker 1: presented by Kalid to Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. At 1017 00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:31,760 Speaker 1: a Steve tester who has been all over the fields. 1018 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:33,440 Speaker 1: Kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role 1019 00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:40,000 Speaker 1: player for state. Steve a blimp. We're not even in 1020 00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 1: the stratosphere of normalcy. All right, Welcome back to our 1021 00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:50,200 Speaker 1: number two of a Buffalo Football Tuesday. Time for the 1022 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:54,399 Speaker 1: weekly appearance from one Good Morning Football's Kyle Brandt, who 1023 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,239 Speaker 1: was on the phone line right now. So let's go 1024 00:52:56,280 --> 00:53:00,239 Speaker 1: to Kyle, all right, Kyle, So here we are the 1025 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 1: post mortem on a three point loss that came at 1026 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 1: the hands of a failed fourth down conversion in the 1027 00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 1: final twenty seconds of a game by Josh Allen, and 1028 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:13,879 Speaker 1: I think it was a microcosm of the game on 1029 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:17,879 Speaker 1: that play because I hate to say it, but the 1030 00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 1: Bills did not win at the line of scrimmage on 1031 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,520 Speaker 1: either side of the ball. They got physically beat by 1032 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:25,440 Speaker 1: a Titans team last night. What do you think? And 1033 00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:28,879 Speaker 1: Josh slipped, Yeah he did, and I think I did. 1034 00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: Two guys, I'm driving home from Buffalo right now. I drove, 1035 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:34,759 Speaker 1: I was driving, says the tasker's house left and I 1036 00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:37,479 Speaker 1: had some of those up forty burgers that he said 1037 00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:39,000 Speaker 1: he was going to serve out for us last week. 1038 00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:41,919 Speaker 1: They found it delicious, and in the end it ended 1039 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,920 Speaker 1: up being another burger that was eaten, especially by the 1040 00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:48,480 Speaker 1: Bills defense. It's so bitterly disappointing. But I listen, we 1041 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:52,239 Speaker 1: sat here last week and you guys are feeling yourself, 1042 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:54,759 Speaker 1: and Buffalo's the number one team in the league, and 1043 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,239 Speaker 1: all the Mafia's on all the flights to Nashville and 1044 00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:00,440 Speaker 1: they're taking over the bars and then we're gon roll 1045 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 1: and we're gonna No. Tennessee has got guys. They got 1046 00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:06,920 Speaker 1: tough guys who have been there before. The coach, the 1047 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:09,760 Speaker 1: running back, the quarterback a lot of those guys, and 1048 00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:12,160 Speaker 1: I thought this would be very close. I thought this 1049 00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:13,920 Speaker 1: would be like a field goal of the last second 1050 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:16,399 Speaker 1: type deal, which obviously did not end up being. But 1051 00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:19,719 Speaker 1: I didn't think anybody was gonna it was gonna say 1052 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 1: that Derek Henry would be that good, especially with a 1053 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:26,160 Speaker 1: very well established success that the Bills have had against him. 1054 00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:29,240 Speaker 1: That was rough, man, I mean, and they the problem 1055 00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:31,480 Speaker 1: is is that they may see that dude again. Um, 1056 00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:33,520 Speaker 1: I know the building have enough games and the schedule 1057 00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:36,600 Speaker 1: is pretty soft, but whoa, that guy's still running right 1058 00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:38,640 Speaker 1: through the defense. I never thought that was coming. Yeah, yeah, 1059 00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 1: it was. It was a It was a physical battle 1060 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:42,840 Speaker 1: up front. I knew that, and you know with the Bills, 1061 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:44,200 Speaker 1: and I think they left a lot on the table. 1062 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 1: So my forty burger was in play all the way 1063 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 1: up until the very end. But um, the Titans ability 1064 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:51,680 Speaker 1: to kind of hang in there while the build. The 1065 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:53,640 Speaker 1: Bills really hit him in the mouth early. They got 1066 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,399 Speaker 1: him into a third and eight on the first three 1067 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:57,839 Speaker 1: plays of office they bear They just by the skin 1068 00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 1: of their teeth converted. They get another third right away, 1069 00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 1: and then they're off the field. In their first series 1070 00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:04,840 Speaker 1: Bills drive down, and then they settled for three, and 1071 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:07,480 Speaker 1: they drive down again and settled for three, and then 1072 00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:09,680 Speaker 1: you know, Derrick Henry snaps off the big run and 1073 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 1: the Titans take the lead, and they hung around perfectly, 1074 00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:15,960 Speaker 1: and then you know, the game kind of took on 1075 00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:18,400 Speaker 1: a life of its own where they're like seven lead changes. 1076 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 1: Every time the Bills would score, the Titans would answer, 1077 00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:23,320 Speaker 1: and every time the Titans would score, the Bills would answer. 1078 00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:27,640 Speaker 1: Fun game to watch. And I gotta tell you, I'm 1079 00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:30,600 Speaker 1: not really upset about it, but I thought the Bills 1080 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:32,960 Speaker 1: would go down there and really lump them up. But man, 1081 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:35,040 Speaker 1: oh man, Derrick Henry and then you throw in Julio 1082 00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:37,440 Speaker 1: Jones and A. J. Brown, and those guys can really 1083 00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 1: compliment him well. And I just think the Titans put 1084 00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 1: forth a really good effort. They deserve to win. Well, 1085 00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 1: if someone would have told you back in August. All right, 1086 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:52,839 Speaker 1: so in weeks six, the Bills are gonna lose by 1087 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:56,440 Speaker 1: just a few points on the road in primetime through 1088 00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:58,919 Speaker 1: the Titans. At the end of the game, you might say, well, 1089 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:02,120 Speaker 1: all right, that's the ball, that's all right. And yet, man, 1090 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,279 Speaker 1: I really thought they had that game at the end. 1091 00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:06,880 Speaker 1: And we looked at this quarterback sneak this morning on 1092 00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:10,800 Speaker 1: the show about fifty different ways and fifty different angles. 1093 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:14,000 Speaker 1: We got so far in the nuances of quarterback sneaking 1094 00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:17,000 Speaker 1: and the d line pinching, and Josh is in the 1095 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:19,600 Speaker 1: shotgun and then he walks up. And I mean at 1096 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:22,200 Speaker 1: Chris Carter on the show say talking about Josh's work 1097 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:25,920 Speaker 1: in the quarterback sneak that he doesn't like a staggered stance, 1098 00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:29,359 Speaker 1: he likes a Squeare it up stands My deepest conspiracy 1099 00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:33,960 Speaker 1: theories about that quarterback sneak is this Josh slips right. Obviously, 1100 00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 1: if you watch the speed he slips, he just falls. Come. 1101 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:41,080 Speaker 1: There's only a few natural turf stadiums left in the league, 1102 00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:44,400 Speaker 1: the Titans having to have one. I think if that 1103 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 1: game was played on field turf, I think Josh Allen 1104 00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 1: gets it. That's how deep we went with that quarterback 1105 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:53,279 Speaker 1: sneak herd around the league. Now, yeah, yeah, but I said, 1106 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:55,319 Speaker 1: there are like four plays in that game that went 1107 00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 1: for the Titans that really made it out. At first 1108 00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,440 Speaker 1: it was them. It was the seventy six yard run, 1109 00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:03,480 Speaker 1: no question about it. Derrek Kendrey Bill's fans are livid about. 1110 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:06,359 Speaker 1: You know, Paul, you're getting held halfway through the line 1111 00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:09,120 Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Oh whatever, you're gonna get something. You're not 1112 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:11,239 Speaker 1: gonna get something. That was a great play and give 1113 00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:13,240 Speaker 1: it to him. The second one was the long doink 1114 00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 1: off of Micah Hyde's helmet that ended up in the 1115 00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 1: thirty five yard or thirty two yard game where you 1116 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,120 Speaker 1: know Julio Jones tracks. It would have been paster ofference anyway. 1117 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,360 Speaker 1: There's two plays, then it was the bumped arm for 1118 00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 1: the interception. There's three plays, and then it was the 1119 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:30,800 Speaker 1: fourth down conversion for Buffalo that that Josh Aden slipped 1120 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:32,800 Speaker 1: and they got a great surge and they didn't get it. 1121 00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:39,480 Speaker 1: Those four plays marked lead changes, momentum changes, and it 1122 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:42,960 Speaker 1: was just it really distills down to those four plays 1123 00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 1: being difference makers in that game. I would only add 1124 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 1: a fifth play the third down right before that was 1125 00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:54,439 Speaker 1: absolutely insane. I watched that replay fifty times too. I'm 1126 00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 1: still not totally sure he didn't get it. I think 1127 00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:59,720 Speaker 1: they got the call Riot, but I'm not sure. I 1128 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 1: actually shocked that he didn't. Normally, because Josh jumps over 1129 00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:04,800 Speaker 1: people and he's got the long arms I thought the 1130 00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 1: second he decided to run that all, he's getting it, 1131 00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 1: and I guess he didn't. With that was kind of 1132 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:12,280 Speaker 1: the setup to the fourth down. It was. I think 1133 00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:15,360 Speaker 1: there was five, maybe even more, and I just listen. 1134 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 1: I hope that that fourth down sneak does not cost them, 1135 00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:23,120 Speaker 1: you know, a home title game or a home division 1136 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 1: a round or anything like. The AFC is so urted 1137 00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:29,320 Speaker 1: right now with up teams who are all beating each other. 1138 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 1: I hate to think that, you know the reason that 1139 00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:33,880 Speaker 1: they didn't get that fourth down in the sneak, so 1140 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:36,240 Speaker 1: oh well, now they have to go to Baltimore in 1141 00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:38,720 Speaker 1: January or go to one of these others. It's that 1142 00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:43,600 Speaker 1: good in the FC that every little play in weeks six. Yeah, 1143 00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:45,720 Speaker 1: the biggest concern coming out of the game for me 1144 00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:47,960 Speaker 1: is the line of scrimmage battle. This is something that 1145 00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:51,640 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott has been hard at work at since twenty eighteen, 1146 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:54,120 Speaker 1: when his team flat out could not win it the 1147 00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:56,520 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage because they just didn't have the horses. 1148 00:58:56,880 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 1: This team reinvested in John Feliciano and Williams in the 1149 00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:03,439 Speaker 1: offseason resigned, and both felt it was just a matter 1150 00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:08,720 Speaker 1: of getting healthy and they would be good enough. They 1151 00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:10,760 Speaker 1: got beat at the line of scrimmage last night. There's 1152 00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:12,600 Speaker 1: no two ways about it. The Titans are not a 1153 00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:14,600 Speaker 1: good matchup for this team. The Ravens are not a 1154 00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:16,640 Speaker 1: good matchup for this team because I don't know if 1155 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:19,400 Speaker 1: they're capable of physically mashing with those teams at the 1156 00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. That's a problem. Now. As Steve pointed out, 1157 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:26,480 Speaker 1: they still scored thirty one points, but that's almost largely 1158 00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:30,760 Speaker 1: because you're playing an injury decimated secondary and Josh can 1159 00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:33,720 Speaker 1: extend plays. By the way, I only have to take 1160 00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:35,720 Speaker 1: issue with one thing you've said so far, Kyle, and 1161 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:38,680 Speaker 1: that you lumped Ryan Tannehill in with the tough players 1162 00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:40,480 Speaker 1: on the Titans. I can never get to a place 1163 00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 1: where Ryan Tannehill is labeled as tough. I have a 1164 00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 1: tough time with that. Hey, well, I have a Tannehill issue. Yeah, 1165 00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:52,640 Speaker 1: I'll say it. Um, I don't know. It goes back 1166 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:56,280 Speaker 1: to his Dolphins days, you know, and and he's you know, 1167 00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:59,360 Speaker 1: he's a former receiver, and receivers are tough. Don't get 1168 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:02,160 Speaker 1: me wrong, Fence, Steve. I just I don't know. I 1169 01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:04,720 Speaker 1: can't even look at Tannehill and say he's tough. I 1170 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:09,080 Speaker 1: can't even look. Yes he was, Yes he was. I 1171 01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:12,360 Speaker 1: don't know. It's probably it's probably heavily personal. I don't know. 1172 01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just don't like it. I can't 1173 01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:18,440 Speaker 1: even look at the game. Did you jump out of 1174 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 1: your chair when the did the punt return throwback thing 1175 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 1: and it wasn't don't week. Don't get me started. I'm 1176 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:31,479 Speaker 1: gonna go all Joe Franklin on you. Here's Kyle. Don't 1177 01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:34,560 Speaker 1: get me started with that. Don't get me started with 1178 01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 1: the home run throw forward. Um yeah, I mean for me, 1179 01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:42,040 Speaker 1: it steamed me a little bit because that's Vrabel. And 1180 01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:44,840 Speaker 1: then it goes the roots run even deeper than that, 1181 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 1: because that's a Belichick thing. That's what Belichick would do, 1182 01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:51,920 Speaker 1: and Vrabel, being a disciple of Belichick, did that on purpose. 1183 01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:54,560 Speaker 1: Don't think for a second there isn't any behind the 1184 01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:59,200 Speaker 1: scenes mafioso stuff between Vrabel and Brian Dable and Dabele 1185 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:01,360 Speaker 1: stuck it right back in his ear hole when he 1186 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:04,240 Speaker 1: went Philly's Special on him. Do you remember that Super Bowl? 1187 01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:06,320 Speaker 1: I think we do. Mike Rabel. I know you weren't 1188 01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:09,600 Speaker 1: there anymore, but put that in your pipe and smoke it. Kyle. 1189 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:11,920 Speaker 1: That's a that's a dollar fine for you for getting 1190 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:15,439 Speaker 1: Brownie to rent like that. All right, but I'll take 1191 01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:17,480 Speaker 1: the fine. I'll pay the fine. All I need to 1192 01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:19,680 Speaker 1: know if I ever need to piss off Brownie, bring 1193 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:24,280 Speaker 1: up the Music City Miracle and then Ryan Tannehill. Apparently 1194 01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:26,720 Speaker 1: no one has very strong appeas about Ryan Tannill except 1195 01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:29,240 Speaker 1: for Brownie. I just don't. I don't like him. I 1196 01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:32,120 Speaker 1: don't like him. He's got this, he's got this rye grin. 1197 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:35,280 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I want to punch him in the face. 1198 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:37,640 Speaker 1: A lot of raw nerve. Will just admit it. Right now. 1199 01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:39,440 Speaker 1: I gotta ask you this, Kyle. Do you think that 1200 01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:42,800 Speaker 1: certain points and the Bill's red zone offense has not 1201 01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:44,640 Speaker 1: been as good as it was a year ago, particularly 1202 01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:47,280 Speaker 1: last night against the Titans. Do you think it's come 1203 01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:51,480 Speaker 1: down to maybe with Maybe it's an indictment of Singletary 1204 01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:54,919 Speaker 1: and Moss that they're starting to rely more and more 1205 01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:58,160 Speaker 1: and more on Josh Allen. His running ability is passing ability, 1206 01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:02,600 Speaker 1: and he becomes basically option one and there's no option two. 1207 01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:06,520 Speaker 1: I know what you're saying, and it's you want those 1208 01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:09,200 Speaker 1: guys who emerge so badly. You go into a big game, 1209 01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 1: and if you could take anybody in the Bill's roster 1210 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:13,800 Speaker 1: to have a monster outing, I would pick one of 1211 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:16,040 Speaker 1: those running backs or both of them. And maybe the 1212 01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:18,360 Speaker 1: fact that we're always referring to them as those two 1213 01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:21,000 Speaker 1: running backs is the problem, and that there isn't one 1214 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,480 Speaker 1: of them who's emerged. And yet it's a head scratcher 1215 01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 1: because those guys run hard. I mean I see it 1216 01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 1: all the time. Early in the game, I thought Singletary 1217 01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:31,600 Speaker 1: was running really hard, and at the clutch time, they 1218 01:02:31,640 --> 01:02:35,080 Speaker 1: don't seem to trust them. I don't know this running 1219 01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:37,919 Speaker 1: thing and the defense thing. All anybody's saying this morning 1220 01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 1: is well, Derrick Henry's tough and they got beat and 1221 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:43,920 Speaker 1: oh well, but the sketch so easy. Moving forward, let 1222 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 1: me just point out once they play in a few weeks, 1223 01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:48,120 Speaker 1: they play the Coats. I don't know if they want 1224 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:50,280 Speaker 1: that either. The coach run the hell out of the ball. 1225 01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:52,600 Speaker 1: We know what coach Reik has going on there, and 1226 01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:55,840 Speaker 1: that Jonathan Taylor is coming off a monster game. Brownie. 1227 01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:58,240 Speaker 1: If you're concerned about them being able to mash, then 1228 01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:00,000 Speaker 1: that is a game to watch. Now. I think it's 1229 01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:02,000 Speaker 1: or five weeks from now, but it's a bunch of 1230 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 1: these Jets and Jaguars. In the meantime, watch the Colts game. 1231 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:07,240 Speaker 1: If you're worried about that, you don't have to be. 1232 01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:09,160 Speaker 1: You don't have to tell me about Jonathan Taylor. My 1233 01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:11,560 Speaker 1: son's a big Wisconsin football fan, and I saw you 1234 01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:14,880 Speaker 1: did up there in college. And the guy runs a 1235 01:03:14,920 --> 01:03:18,440 Speaker 1: four three nine and he's almost as big as Derrick Henry. 1236 01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:21,480 Speaker 1: So I'm wholly familiar with what Jonathan Taylor can do. 1237 01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:24,360 Speaker 1: When you're right. That could potentially be an issue if 1238 01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:27,280 Speaker 1: they don't get this stuff right and fundamentally find a 1239 01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:29,720 Speaker 1: way to shed blocks. I mean, that was the biggest 1240 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:32,360 Speaker 1: problem last night. It wasn't like Derrick Henry was running 1241 01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 1: through people. He was getting the second level at full 1242 01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:37,280 Speaker 1: speed because nobody could touch him. They couldn't get off 1243 01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:39,800 Speaker 1: blocks last night. Sean McDermott even said it after the game. 1244 01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:42,280 Speaker 1: We gotta get off blocks. They couldn't get off blocks. 1245 01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:45,240 Speaker 1: It was terrible. Yeah, you watched the seventy six yard 1246 01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:46,880 Speaker 1: or I don't think he broke any tackles at all, 1247 01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 1: Like it was kind of untouched. He was just like 1248 01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:50,040 Speaker 1: track and field. It just ran straight. He looked like 1249 01:03:50,040 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 1: Forrest Gump. I mean it was easy, yeah, right. And 1250 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:54,240 Speaker 1: he runs almost twenty two miles per hour, by the way, 1251 01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:56,320 Speaker 1: which is insane because he doesn't look like he's moving 1252 01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:57,880 Speaker 1: that fast, and then all of a sudden people just 1253 01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:02,840 Speaker 1: cannot catch him. It's nuts. You know. We talked about 1254 01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:06,920 Speaker 1: the possibility of this offense putting too much on Josh, 1255 01:04:06,960 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 1: and even though it is a quarterback driven league, and 1256 01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:12,040 Speaker 1: I thought last week he took a major step forward, 1257 01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:18,160 Speaker 1: incapably straddling the line between improvising when necessary and staying 1258 01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:20,600 Speaker 1: within the scope of the game plan. I thought he 1259 01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:23,520 Speaker 1: fell victim to it on one series. Okay, I'm gonna 1260 01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:25,720 Speaker 1: run you guys through it. You tell me what you think. Okay. 1261 01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:30,960 Speaker 1: Fourth quarter, the Bills are still up thirty one twenty seven. 1262 01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:33,600 Speaker 1: After the defense gets to stop, makes bullet kick a 1263 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:35,560 Speaker 1: thirty eight yard or to make it thirty one twenty 1264 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:38,240 Speaker 1: seven with nine forty five left, Bills have the ball, 1265 01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:40,520 Speaker 1: they get a first down, they move the sticks. It's 1266 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:43,560 Speaker 1: first and ten at the thirty seven Josh drops back 1267 01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:46,200 Speaker 1: and he is dead set on getting it all in 1268 01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:50,000 Speaker 1: one play, ends up taking a seven yard sack. Second 1269 01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:53,760 Speaker 1: and seventeen, he goes deep on a post again forty 1270 01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:59,080 Speaker 1: yards downfield, low percentage play incomplete. Now it's learning seventeen. 1271 01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:02,000 Speaker 1: Here comes the path Rush tries to throw another pass 1272 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:05,080 Speaker 1: deep down the right side to Jay Kumerou. Incomplete. Now 1273 01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:08,680 Speaker 1: you're punting. Tennessee's got the ball back. What do we 1274 01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:11,760 Speaker 1: think about that decision making there? And instead of just 1275 01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:15,040 Speaker 1: getting even getting half of it on second and seventeen 1276 01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:18,080 Speaker 1: after you took your shot or looking for a shot 1277 01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:20,480 Speaker 1: and took a sacket half of it back, make it 1278 01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:23,120 Speaker 1: third and manageable. You gotta stay on the field there. 1279 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:26,400 Speaker 1: Your defense is not stopping them. They've scored on five 1280 01:05:26,480 --> 01:05:30,600 Speaker 1: consecutive possessions. Ronnie, don't you feel like, especially the way 1281 01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:32,240 Speaker 1: you describe it, feels like a home run hitter is 1282 01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:34,560 Speaker 1: trying to hit one and he's just like, you know what, 1283 01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:37,520 Speaker 1: hit it? Double hit a single. No, I'm gonna swing 1284 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:39,480 Speaker 1: out of my shoes and get it all back. Now, 1285 01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:41,400 Speaker 1: I do know what you mean. And yet in all 1286 01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:44,960 Speaker 1: those descriptions you had, again, where's the handoff to Singletary 1287 01:05:45,080 --> 01:05:47,840 Speaker 1: Mass It's just these guys, it's like they disappear for 1288 01:05:47,960 --> 01:05:50,200 Speaker 1: phases and it's just let's play a hero ball with 1289 01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 1: Josh Allen and he'll throw it a country mile the 1290 01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:54,760 Speaker 1: digs or something. It doesn't always work, and I think 1291 01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:56,640 Speaker 1: if you rely on it too much, you can't hit 1292 01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:58,960 Speaker 1: a home run every single time. We'll say this, and 1293 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 1: I get both guys are saying. It was a tough game, 1294 01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:05,880 Speaker 1: seven league changes. Your team scored thirty one points. You 1295 01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:10,240 Speaker 1: played the singularly best offensive weapon outside the position of quarterback. 1296 01:06:10,280 --> 01:06:13,880 Speaker 1: He's played the single singular best offensive player in the league, 1297 01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:16,080 Speaker 1: and he had a nice day, had one snapped off, 1298 01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:19,200 Speaker 1: one big play on you, and was a factor in 1299 01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:24,040 Speaker 1: the game. You've I mean, he matched up with a 1300 01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:26,600 Speaker 1: tough team who played physically. You're on the road primetime 1301 01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:30,040 Speaker 1: and you're coming in there a four and one, maybe 1302 01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:32,120 Speaker 1: feeling good about yourself, maybe not. It doesn't matter. You 1303 01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:35,760 Speaker 1: got a bye week coming up. Listen, I'm not I'm 1304 01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:41,200 Speaker 1: not throwing out and making any wholesale changes to whatever 1305 01:06:41,240 --> 01:06:43,640 Speaker 1: the Bills are doing. They've still got the best defense. 1306 01:06:43,680 --> 01:06:46,000 Speaker 1: They've still got a quarterback who threw for three fifty 1307 01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:48,120 Speaker 1: five and a couple of touchdowns and the only time 1308 01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:50,040 Speaker 1: he got intercepted is when his arm got hit by 1309 01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:52,600 Speaker 1: the pass rush. Yeah, this is a team that is 1310 01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:56,720 Speaker 1: It's the same team today. Listen, it's the same team 1311 01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:59,680 Speaker 1: today that it would have been if Josh Allen would 1312 01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:01,680 Speaker 1: have quarter back sneaked it in for a touchdown last 1313 01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 1: night on fourth down and they would have won the game. 1314 01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:10,120 Speaker 1: It's the same team, same team. So adjustments, game plans sure, 1315 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:13,840 Speaker 1: change all of that you want, but don't feel like 1316 01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:19,200 Speaker 1: you've got to make like these philosophical adjustments halfway through 1317 01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:20,760 Speaker 1: a season or a third of the way through the 1318 01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:24,880 Speaker 1: season where you're you've lost two games. So I get it. 1319 01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:27,280 Speaker 1: It was a tough game, hard to watch, hard to lose, 1320 01:07:27,560 --> 01:07:29,680 Speaker 1: particularly when we went in there flying high and we're 1321 01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:31,560 Speaker 1: all calling you know, I was calling for a blowout. 1322 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:36,200 Speaker 1: I was calling for a forty burger. Hey, that happens. 1323 01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:39,800 Speaker 1: So I'm I don't want to say I'm I'm not 1324 01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:42,960 Speaker 1: at all happy they lost, but I'm still really good 1325 01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:45,479 Speaker 1: football team and they played pretty good last night. Kyle, 1326 01:07:45,520 --> 01:07:47,280 Speaker 1: I feel like we're in a lecture series and Steve 1327 01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:48,600 Speaker 1: is up at the front of the room. What do 1328 01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:52,760 Speaker 1: you think? This is incredible? I'm actually standing right now. 1329 01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:55,760 Speaker 1: You just fired me up. Brownie's very negative today. I 1330 01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:57,400 Speaker 1: don't know what he had for breakfast something, but he's 1331 01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:01,640 Speaker 1: pissed off about everything. Yeah, Tasker that it was the speech. God, 1332 01:08:01,680 --> 01:08:03,840 Speaker 1: bless you, beautiful man. That was exactly right. This is 1333 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:05,840 Speaker 1: the same team. They didn't get the quarterback sneak. Whe 1334 01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:09,000 Speaker 1: they're not gonna win the Super Bowl. Now, you're right that. Well, yeah, 1335 01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,680 Speaker 1: and I know this, it's overreaction. I know we invest 1336 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:15,400 Speaker 1: so much. And here's the thing too, this is the truth. 1337 01:08:15,440 --> 01:08:18,000 Speaker 1: This is the absolute truth. The players on this team, 1338 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:20,880 Speaker 1: as tough as that loss was, as embarrassing as it was, 1339 01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:23,680 Speaker 1: you know, guys getting truck by by Derrick Henry and 1340 01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 1: guys struggling attack and getting beaten on a quarterback sneak 1341 01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:30,120 Speaker 1: and all that stuff. Tomorrow this game will be so 1342 01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:33,040 Speaker 1: far gone because they're gonna they've the players and the coaches, 1343 01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,000 Speaker 1: they've got another game to work force two weeks away, 1344 01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:36,160 Speaker 1: and this one kind of sit with them for a 1345 01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:39,160 Speaker 1: little extra time. But the players and coaches they'll get 1346 01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:42,800 Speaker 1: over this quick, they'll learn from it. But fans like 1347 01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:45,560 Speaker 1: me and Brownie and Kyle and all the people in 1348 01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:47,800 Speaker 1: the media who think about this, they're gonna stew on 1349 01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:50,640 Speaker 1: this loss for two weeks for two weeks. I get 1350 01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:52,320 Speaker 1: it all out in one shot. This is but you 1351 01:08:52,400 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 1: know how the players have the twenty four hour rule. 1352 01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:56,360 Speaker 1: I have the I have the twenty four hour like, 1353 01:08:56,479 --> 01:08:58,720 Speaker 1: but here's this in vinegar rule. You just get it 1354 01:08:58,760 --> 01:09:01,280 Speaker 1: all out of my system and four hours. And you 1355 01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:03,080 Speaker 1: know I'm a New York cynic at heart. That's who 1356 01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:05,280 Speaker 1: I am. I'm sorry, but here's how. Here's the reason. 1357 01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:08,680 Speaker 1: Because the coaches and players have something to focus on 1358 01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:11,040 Speaker 1: down the road, they can work on the things that 1359 01:09:11,040 --> 01:09:12,720 Speaker 1: they need to work on. They can work on what 1360 01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:14,680 Speaker 1: went wrong in Tennessee. They can work on what they 1361 01:09:14,680 --> 01:09:16,720 Speaker 1: need to work on. They got something that's gonna make 1362 01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:19,120 Speaker 1: them better and feel good about themselves down they work. 1363 01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:22,320 Speaker 1: Can they work on being more physical though? That's that's 1364 01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:24,160 Speaker 1: the concern that I that I come out of this 1365 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:26,080 Speaker 1: game with. I look, I have all the faith in 1366 01:09:26,080 --> 01:09:28,559 Speaker 1: the world Josh Allen. I loved I thought he played 1367 01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:31,280 Speaker 1: a great game. I don't think you put this game 1368 01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:33,960 Speaker 1: on him at all. The game was won and lost 1369 01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:36,040 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage last night, and I think 1370 01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:40,880 Speaker 1: everybody on that coaching staff would agree, Um, you gotta 1371 01:09:40,920 --> 01:09:44,840 Speaker 1: win there. And I think the bottom line here is 1372 01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:47,040 Speaker 1: you got to find a way to be more physical 1373 01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:48,880 Speaker 1: at the line. I don't know how you capture that. 1374 01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:51,639 Speaker 1: I don't and I don't want to. Like Steve said, 1375 01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:54,240 Speaker 1: throw the baby out with bathwater, Kyle, and and make 1376 01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:56,680 Speaker 1: wholesale changes. I don't think that's the answer either. But 1377 01:09:57,040 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 1: I worry that Tennessee and Baltimore are not good matchups 1378 01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:03,760 Speaker 1: for this team based on what happens in the line 1379 01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:06,000 Speaker 1: of scrimmage with those two clubs. Kyle, I've got thoughts 1380 01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:08,320 Speaker 1: about being more physical. I'd like to hear yours. What 1381 01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:12,200 Speaker 1: about that? What do you guys, Steve, Listen, here's here's 1382 01:10:12,240 --> 01:10:15,280 Speaker 1: the burden of expectations. If this team goes to the 1383 01:10:15,280 --> 01:10:19,200 Speaker 1: title game and loses, this is a bitterly disappointing season. 1384 01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:20,760 Speaker 1: I think if they go to the Super Bowl and lose, 1385 01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:23,240 Speaker 1: at the disappointing season. So of course, yeah, they're gonna 1386 01:10:23,280 --> 01:10:24,840 Speaker 1: win games. Is They're gonna do fine, and they're a 1387 01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:27,760 Speaker 1: really good team, But damn, there's this fear I can 1388 01:10:27,840 --> 01:10:30,880 Speaker 1: feel about one day in January getting caught by a 1389 01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:33,000 Speaker 1: team that runs really well and they're not toughen up 1390 01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:34,559 Speaker 1: at the line. Steve, what are your thoughts? Can they 1391 01:10:34,680 --> 01:10:38,439 Speaker 1: tossing up. Does that happen? Yeah, because most of that 1392 01:10:38,960 --> 01:10:41,479 Speaker 1: because these guys are you know, it's not like these 1393 01:10:41,479 --> 01:10:44,120 Speaker 1: guys are smaller, weaker two. What it is it's between 1394 01:10:44,160 --> 01:10:47,040 Speaker 1: their ears, it's between there is. It's not from the 1395 01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 1: neck down, it's from the neck up. That's where your 1396 01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:52,760 Speaker 1: toughness is. It's from the neck up, and that can 1397 01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,720 Speaker 1: be fixed. So I think that's what they're gonna that's 1398 01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:58,000 Speaker 1: what they'll focus. That's coach McDermott. Then I guess that's 1399 01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:00,800 Speaker 1: the bye week project. That absolutely neck up. Yeah, absolutely, 1400 01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:02,919 Speaker 1: I mean it's getting off blocks and it's better tackling. 1401 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:07,479 Speaker 1: So I do take stock in that because I've never 1402 01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:09,479 Speaker 1: seen a coaching staff here in Buffalo for the better 1403 01:11:09,479 --> 01:11:12,120 Speaker 1: part of two decades that drills the fundamentals like McDermott 1404 01:11:12,120 --> 01:11:15,360 Speaker 1: does and his staff, so I'm you know, I'm confident 1405 01:11:15,439 --> 01:11:18,479 Speaker 1: they will get it right. And Steve and I have 1406 01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:20,599 Speaker 1: said it on this show a lot, Kyle, there aren't 1407 01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:23,880 Speaker 1: too many coaches we've come across that course correct better 1408 01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:28,400 Speaker 1: than McDermott does after a loss. Okay, well, there's not 1409 01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:30,840 Speaker 1: a lot of quarterbacks you come up against that are 1410 01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:34,679 Speaker 1: as prolific as beautiful and as tough as Ryan Tannehill Browning. 1411 01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:38,479 Speaker 1: So you don't have to. I'm gonna send you a jersey, man. 1412 01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:41,559 Speaker 1: I love it, just as long as your body's not 1413 01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:47,560 Speaker 1: in it. I appreciate your ability to help us self medicate. Absolutely. 1414 01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:51,000 Speaker 1: I'm doing it myself already, all right. So, uh, Kyle, 1415 01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:54,559 Speaker 1: just final thoughts here on the AFC at large. Um 1416 01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:57,680 Speaker 1: Baltimore beat the tar out of a Chargers team that 1417 01:11:57,760 --> 01:12:01,000 Speaker 1: also had trouble at the line of scrimmagem la this 1418 01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:04,640 Speaker 1: past week. Cincinnati I think is a better team than 1419 01:12:04,760 --> 01:12:07,120 Speaker 1: they're getting credit for. But they'll be tested this week 1420 01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:11,680 Speaker 1: because I think they have Baltimore right Steve Cincinnati does, yes, 1421 01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:13,880 Speaker 1: so they'll they'll get a firm test this week to 1422 01:12:13,880 --> 01:12:16,040 Speaker 1: show just what they're made up, measuring stick game for 1423 01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:20,160 Speaker 1: them within their own division. Who's who's kind of picking 1424 01:12:20,200 --> 01:12:23,880 Speaker 1: your interest here? AFC wise, as we go into you know, 1425 01:12:23,880 --> 01:12:26,640 Speaker 1: a bye week for the Bills. All right, So the 1426 01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:29,519 Speaker 1: Browns are completely falling apart. Feel terrible for them. They 1427 01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:32,920 Speaker 1: got to play in a short week. The Chargers, great coach, looking, 1428 01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:36,040 Speaker 1: great looking quarterback, can't stop anybody on defense. I don't 1429 01:12:36,080 --> 01:12:39,920 Speaker 1: trust them at all. I honestly, I gotta go in Baltimore. 1430 01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:41,960 Speaker 1: They lost by a field goal early on Week one 1431 01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:44,760 Speaker 1: of the Raiders and haven't lost since. They got an identity, 1432 01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 1: which is we're all hurt and we signed backup running 1433 01:12:47,560 --> 01:12:49,920 Speaker 1: backs and don't care. They're starting to do those uh, 1434 01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:53,400 Speaker 1: those crazy gratuitous group celebrations they did a couple of 1435 01:12:53,479 --> 01:12:56,439 Speaker 1: years ago when they were so good. Um Lamar is 1436 01:12:56,439 --> 01:12:59,080 Speaker 1: playing out of his mind. They're getting this rookie receiver 1437 01:12:59,200 --> 01:13:01,719 Speaker 1: Bateman back house is when he got hurt in training camp. 1438 01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:04,080 Speaker 1: I do not want to play Baltimore right now, and 1439 01:13:04,400 --> 01:13:06,880 Speaker 1: especially if I have trouble stopping the run. I think 1440 01:13:07,000 --> 01:13:09,040 Speaker 1: I think Baltimore right now is the best number one 1441 01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:11,360 Speaker 1: team in the AFC. I'm sorry, Buffalo, but Baltimore on 1442 01:13:11,560 --> 01:13:13,519 Speaker 1: fire and I don't want any part of them. Yeah, 1443 01:13:13,640 --> 01:13:15,719 Speaker 1: especially on this I know it's a week tweek league 1444 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:17,920 Speaker 1: and we'll have different opinions next week and after the 1445 01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:20,120 Speaker 1: Black Week and all that, but for this week, I 1446 01:13:20,160 --> 01:13:24,880 Speaker 1: agree with you. Baltimore looks phenomenal. They look they look 1447 01:13:25,040 --> 01:13:27,960 Speaker 1: really really good. They're only just getting healthy now, right 1448 01:13:28,040 --> 01:13:30,880 Speaker 1: and I and overcoming what they've overcome, and the fact 1449 01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:33,439 Speaker 1: that they run a unique kind of team atmosphere with 1450 01:13:33,479 --> 01:13:36,360 Speaker 1: a quarterback that is, you know, a power he can 1451 01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:39,360 Speaker 1: run it, he can and he's throwing better. So I think, yeah, 1452 01:13:39,400 --> 01:13:42,880 Speaker 1: I kind of agree with you. Baltimore this week is 1453 01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:45,559 Speaker 1: the team to beat. Yeah, and Kyle, I just look 1454 01:13:45,600 --> 01:13:48,240 Speaker 1: at the Ravens like one of these programs, like a 1455 01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:51,040 Speaker 1: college program. They're gonna be there. You know that the 1456 01:13:51,160 --> 01:13:52,760 Speaker 1: Ravens are gonna play a role in this thing at 1457 01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:54,920 Speaker 1: the end, maybe the Bills run into them in the playoffs. 1458 01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 1: If not, it'll be somebody else. But this Seohn Harbaugh 1459 01:13:57,560 --> 01:13:59,760 Speaker 1: thing is just every single year, you know they're gonna 1460 01:13:59,800 --> 01:14:01,679 Speaker 1: be a factor. They're not going to fall on their face. 1461 01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:04,320 Speaker 1: They're not built like that. So maybe they come to Buffalo, 1462 01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:08,080 Speaker 1: or if things don't go great, maybe Buffalo goes to Baltimore. 1463 01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:10,240 Speaker 1: We'll find on the next couple of months. My friend, Yeah, 1464 01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:12,680 Speaker 1: and I said it last week. I think they're one 1465 01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:14,800 Speaker 1: of the most mentally tough teams in the entire league. 1466 01:14:14,840 --> 01:14:17,720 Speaker 1: They're just they got the stones, man, they do. I 1467 01:14:17,840 --> 01:14:22,720 Speaker 1: know exactly right, Kyle, appreciate the time. As always. We'll 1468 01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:24,479 Speaker 1: let you go.

Trip 1486 01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:29,880 Speaker 1: joined the Hamburg football staff in two thousand and seven, 1487 01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:34,080 Speaker 1: was named head coach in twenty sixteen.

McQuaid is currently New 1491 01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:46,479 Speaker 1: York States number two ranked team in Class Double A. 1492 01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:49,160 Speaker 1: Bates is in his ninth season and two stints as 1493 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:52,200 Speaker 1: head coach at McQuaid and has compiled a sixty eight 1494 01:15:52,640 --> 01:15:58,880 Speaker 1: and seventeen record. Believe it's time for us to go 1495 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:03,760 Speaker 1: around the locker room here briefly as we take a 1496 01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:06,360 Speaker 1: look at some of the more pointing comments from the 1497 01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:10,240 Speaker 1: post game, and that's brought to you by connect Life, 1498 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:15,320 Speaker 1: your blood and organ donor Network. First coach McDermott here 1499 01:16:15,439 --> 01:16:18,080 Speaker 1: on what went wrong in the Bills lost to the 1500 01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:21,519 Speaker 1: Titans on Monday night and day wouldn't get the job done. 1501 01:16:21,560 --> 01:16:25,400 Speaker 1: I didn't get the job done. And you know, they 1502 01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:26,960 Speaker 1: did a good job in the red zone. We should 1503 01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:29,160 Speaker 1: have scored. You know our red zone stats, I think 1504 01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:34,559 Speaker 1: we're two for five. They were three for three, so um, 1505 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:37,520 Speaker 1: you know, and then the points after off the turnover, 1506 01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:41,439 Speaker 1: um we got they got seven. We came away with three. 1507 01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:44,400 Speaker 1: So just some of the differences in the game. But 1508 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:46,160 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, the results the result, 1509 01:16:46,280 --> 01:16:47,880 Speaker 1: and now we're gonna got to do a better job. 1510 01:16:48,439 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 1: And then here is Josh Allen about not converting on 1511 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:55,880 Speaker 1: the fourth down play and the offensive struggles they had 1512 01:16:56,400 --> 01:17:01,559 Speaker 1: against the Titans. Game of inches the gate the play before. 1513 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:05,840 Speaker 1: It's pretty close to UM, didn't turn out in my 1514 01:17:05,840 --> 01:17:07,120 Speaker 1: favorite to day. We were two or five in the 1515 01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:09,559 Speaker 1: red zone. We can't do that, I guess a team 1516 01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:12,360 Speaker 1: like this, So, you know, a lot of should have 1517 01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:14,360 Speaker 1: could have wooed us. But at the end of the day, 1518 01:17:15,240 --> 01:17:17,519 Speaker 1: you know, um, four and two into the bye week, 1519 01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:20,599 Speaker 1: you know, going back to last year taking a loss 1520 01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:23,200 Speaker 1: the way we did against Arizona Heil Mary bye week, 1521 01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:25,960 Speaker 1: this is a resilient team. I got no doubt that. 1522 01:17:26,200 --> 01:17:27,800 Speaker 1: You know, we're gonna use this to fuel us and 1523 01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:30,240 Speaker 1: be ready to go in two weeks. Just trying to 1524 01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:33,080 Speaker 1: find a window to get in there. And um, quarterback 1525 01:17:33,080 --> 01:17:37,840 Speaker 1: sneaks aren't the funnest play by any means. Um, you know, 1526 01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:39,599 Speaker 1: there's uh. I got to find a way to get 1527 01:17:39,720 --> 01:17:42,799 Speaker 1: get a first down there, you know, So it happens. 1528 01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:47,559 Speaker 1: So there's Josh's take on the sneak on fourth and 1529 01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:51,559 Speaker 1: one that did not reach the line. To game and 1530 01:17:51,680 --> 01:17:54,640 Speaker 1: Around the Locker Room, presented by Connect life Blood and 1531 01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:57,240 Speaker 1: organ donor network. We do want to get back to 1532 01:17:57,240 --> 01:18:00,559 Speaker 1: the phones where we have some people waiting patiently, and 1533 01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:02,640 Speaker 1: we go to Tom in West Seneca. Tom, what do 1534 01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:05,439 Speaker 1: you have for is your on one Bill's Live Chris, Steve, 1535 01:18:05,520 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 1: I want to thank you so very much for talking 1536 01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:15,240 Speaker 1: me down after what Steve referred to his sickening. The 1537 01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:19,120 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills are a great team and I've been on 1538 01:18:19,960 --> 01:18:23,160 Speaker 1: from day one. I've been on the Josh Allen bandwagon. 1539 01:18:23,720 --> 01:18:26,679 Speaker 1: I think he's a great quarterback. As a matter of fact, 1540 01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:29,200 Speaker 1: I think he's the greatest quarterback in the game today. 1541 01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:33,920 Speaker 1: And I think Chris, that you put it in perspective 1542 01:18:34,640 --> 01:18:39,040 Speaker 1: pretty much sums it up. On both sides of the ball, 1543 01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:42,559 Speaker 1: we didn't do well at all. I thought the past 1544 01:18:43,640 --> 01:18:51,759 Speaker 1: defensive positionally was too soft. As Josh was just saying, 1545 01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:56,520 Speaker 1: it is a game of inches. This Buffalo Bills team. 1546 01:18:56,600 --> 01:19:00,360 Speaker 1: I love our Buffalo Bills and we are going to 1547 01:19:00,439 --> 01:19:05,479 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. But like because Steve said, Steve, it's 1548 01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:09,120 Speaker 1: it's sickening not you don't get angry over it. You 1549 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:12,760 Speaker 1: get it's just a sickening feeling. But you talked me 1550 01:19:12,840 --> 01:19:15,960 Speaker 1: down from this sickening feeling that I'm that I've had 1551 01:19:16,040 --> 01:19:20,439 Speaker 1: both you and Chris and it's uh. I can't wait 1552 01:19:20,439 --> 01:19:24,080 Speaker 1: for the season to progress. It was just and again 1553 01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:27,800 Speaker 1: it is a game of inches. I personally thought that 1554 01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:31,840 Speaker 1: tip of the ball was a first down on the 1555 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:37,000 Speaker 1: third down play, but it was close. That's the way 1556 01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:40,960 Speaker 1: it goes. But I think that it's one of their 1557 01:19:41,120 --> 01:19:44,519 Speaker 1: best plays when you get the foot to go and 1558 01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:48,160 Speaker 1: for a first down, you know that quarterback snake is. 1559 01:19:48,240 --> 01:19:53,400 Speaker 1: It's again. But altol I love her Buffalo Bills. I 1560 01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:57,920 Speaker 1: think they're a great team and I do appreciate immensely. Well, 1561 01:19:57,920 --> 01:20:00,599 Speaker 1: if you Chris and Steve for talking, give me down 1562 01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:07,800 Speaker 1: from this sickening feeling. All right, Bill, appreciate the call. Steve, 1563 01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:10,200 Speaker 1: you want to hang out a shingle. You're you're apparently 1564 01:20:10,200 --> 01:20:13,800 Speaker 1: a football therapist. Well, it goes by the saying as well. 1565 01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:16,400 Speaker 1: We said during Kyle's thing that they're the same team 1566 01:20:16,439 --> 01:20:19,599 Speaker 1: today that they would have been had Josh quarterbacks sneaked 1567 01:20:19,600 --> 01:20:23,519 Speaker 1: it into the end zone for the win. Um, nothing's changed. 1568 01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:25,400 Speaker 1: They're still a great team. They're four and tunes to 1569 01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:27,639 Speaker 1: to five and one. They got a lot of football 1570 01:20:27,640 --> 01:20:31,040 Speaker 1: to be played. Um, and they're going to be favored 1571 01:20:31,080 --> 01:20:32,800 Speaker 1: in most of the games they have left. They're going 1572 01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:34,640 Speaker 1: to be in the tournament at the end of the 1573 01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:38,920 Speaker 1: season and there's no getting away from that. So you know, 1574 01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:41,879 Speaker 1: we can suffer through losses like this. Certainly, the Titans 1575 01:20:41,880 --> 01:20:45,599 Speaker 1: looked great, and I would submit that the Titans looked 1576 01:20:45,600 --> 01:20:47,400 Speaker 1: as good as they've looked all season in that game 1577 01:20:47,479 --> 01:20:50,439 Speaker 1: last night. And they're good football team two they're four 1578 01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:54,120 Speaker 1: and two as well. Um, you know, you talk about 1579 01:20:54,439 --> 01:20:58,120 Speaker 1: how good the Titans are, well, do you think about it? 1580 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:03,160 Speaker 1: They they beat they lost to Arizona Cardinals, they beat 1581 01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:07,240 Speaker 1: Seattle in Indianapolis, who were struggling at the time. They 1582 01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:10,799 Speaker 1: lost to the New York Football Jets. Didn't have Julio 1583 01:21:10,920 --> 01:21:12,960 Speaker 1: Jones and A J. Brown in that game, but yes, 1584 01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:16,599 Speaker 1: gave up twenty seven points to the Jets. And then 1585 01:21:16,640 --> 01:21:19,320 Speaker 1: they beat the Jagbars and then Buffalo. So they've got 1586 01:21:19,360 --> 01:21:21,080 Speaker 1: the Chiefs next week. It'll be interesting to see if 1587 01:21:21,080 --> 01:21:22,840 Speaker 1: the Chiefs can match up with these guys and see 1588 01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:26,559 Speaker 1: how the Chiefs decide to attack them. Interesting games, So 1589 01:21:26,600 --> 01:21:29,800 Speaker 1: we'll see. But this is the same Bills team that 1590 01:21:29,840 --> 01:21:31,960 Speaker 1: it would be if Josh had scored on that last 1591 01:21:31,960 --> 01:21:35,160 Speaker 1: place instead of missing out on the conversion. So I'm 1592 01:21:35,160 --> 01:21:38,280 Speaker 1: not I don't. You don't need to do anything different 1593 01:21:38,280 --> 01:21:40,439 Speaker 1: than you've been doing. Just do what you do better. 1594 01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:43,360 Speaker 1: And really there they have the same record after six 1595 01:21:43,400 --> 01:21:45,679 Speaker 1: games this year that they had last year, I believe, 1596 01:21:45,760 --> 01:21:47,760 Speaker 1: is that right? I think they were four and two 1597 01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:51,160 Speaker 1: last year at this time as well, if memory serves, 1598 01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:53,120 Speaker 1: you can check that. While I go to our next scholar, 1599 01:21:53,520 --> 01:21:55,640 Speaker 1: as we go to Dick in north Tonawanda, Dick, what 1600 01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:58,559 Speaker 1: do you have for us? You're on one bills live. Yeah, oh, guys, 1601 01:21:58,680 --> 01:22:03,120 Speaker 1: thank you for taking my call. Um. Why not put 1602 01:22:03,200 --> 01:22:07,360 Speaker 1: your biggest, most most athletic guy in the backfield to 1603 01:22:07,439 --> 01:22:11,000 Speaker 1: try to pick up that six inches? Now I know that, Josh, 1604 01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:14,160 Speaker 1: you're certainly the biggest. Are the offensive guys in the 1605 01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:17,560 Speaker 1: backfield normally? Well, we got bigger guys. We got a 1606 01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:23,880 Speaker 1: star Latola who would emulate a William Refrigerator Perry pick 1607 01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:27,600 Speaker 1: up six inches? Why not put the biggest blockers and 1608 01:22:27,800 --> 01:22:30,160 Speaker 1: that guy in the game to try to get that 1609 01:22:30,880 --> 01:22:33,720 Speaker 1: that distance. Yeah, it's good. It's a good question. I mean, 1610 01:22:33,760 --> 01:22:36,479 Speaker 1: I know you can get guys to do that. I mean, 1611 01:22:36,520 --> 01:22:38,960 Speaker 1: I've we were laughing in the offseason. I thought Justin 1612 01:22:39,080 --> 01:22:41,880 Speaker 1: Zimmer should be playing fullback. He's his three hundred pounder 1613 01:22:41,920 --> 01:22:45,760 Speaker 1: and he can run. The only thing that you have 1614 01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:49,439 Speaker 1: in the corner that gives you hesitation is ball handling. 1615 01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:51,599 Speaker 1: Those guys don't handle the ball very much, and it's 1616 01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:55,559 Speaker 1: it's foreign to them and it doesn't feel right, you 1617 01:22:55,600 --> 01:22:58,240 Speaker 1: know that, And they don't spend any time practicing it. 1618 01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:00,280 Speaker 1: So you could spend all your time having those guy's 1619 01:23:00,280 --> 01:23:02,240 Speaker 1: practice ball handling and getting to where you feel good 1620 01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:05,680 Speaker 1: about a quick snap, turnaround, hand the football off to him. 1621 01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:08,479 Speaker 1: But while you're practicing him to do that for maybe 1622 01:23:08,520 --> 01:23:12,280 Speaker 1: once in a blue moon play, Uh, he's not practicing 1623 01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:17,760 Speaker 1: his normal defensive line position. So I get it. Um, 1624 01:23:17,840 --> 01:23:19,920 Speaker 1: the bigger the better. But you know, the more you 1625 01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:24,280 Speaker 1: specialize in that, the more predictable you become as well. So, um, 1626 01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:26,680 Speaker 1: you know, if that was the case, you'd take all 1627 01:23:26,680 --> 01:23:28,720 Speaker 1: the tight ends off. You put every offensive lineman on 1628 01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:31,000 Speaker 1: there and every defensive lineman on there, line him up 1629 01:23:31,040 --> 01:23:32,559 Speaker 1: as close to the ball as you can, and just 1630 01:23:32,720 --> 01:23:36,160 Speaker 1: you know, try and push through. Um. You know there 1631 01:23:36,280 --> 01:23:37,920 Speaker 1: might be some defenders who would get the wind of 1632 01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:42,599 Speaker 1: that and and match it. So UM, yeah, I get it. Uh, 1633 01:23:42,640 --> 01:23:46,240 Speaker 1: and it's and it's always you know, we always come 1634 01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:51,920 Speaker 1: in after losses like this and if what you did 1635 01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:54,280 Speaker 1: doesn't work in that crucial situation that lost you the game, 1636 01:23:54,280 --> 01:23:55,960 Speaker 1: you should have done the other thing, and you were 1637 01:23:56,000 --> 01:23:57,920 Speaker 1: idiot for not doing it. And they had They had 1638 01:23:57,920 --> 01:24:00,280 Speaker 1: a good wrenching loss last year, as Josh Man mentioned, 1639 01:24:00,320 --> 01:24:04,120 Speaker 1: you know, against Arizona to Hail Mary, and they came 1640 01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:06,240 Speaker 1: back from that and didn't lose again the rest of 1641 01:24:06,240 --> 01:24:08,800 Speaker 1: the regular season. Could this be the same kind of 1642 01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:12,679 Speaker 1: fuel We'll see. The schedule is the easiest in the league. 1643 01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:15,519 Speaker 1: Last year at this point the Bills were also four 1644 01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:18,360 Speaker 1: and two and they had just they're coming off now, 1645 01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:20,479 Speaker 1: a two game losing streak. They lost to the Titans, 1646 01:24:20,560 --> 01:24:22,400 Speaker 1: then they lost to the Chiefs in successive weeks to 1647 01:24:22,400 --> 01:24:25,680 Speaker 1: get into four and two because they started out four No. Right, 1648 01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:28,680 Speaker 1: let's go back to the phones, Fred and Rochester. What 1649 01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:32,880 Speaker 1: do you have for us? Fred? Yeah, guys, nice for 1650 01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:36,080 Speaker 1: taking my call. I've been watching you, guys. I watched 1651 01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:38,280 Speaker 1: the show all the time. Thanks. I just got home 1652 01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:41,840 Speaker 1: from work. So I don't know whether this has been 1653 01:24:41,880 --> 01:24:46,639 Speaker 1: mentioned or not, but Number one, I'm a big Cask fan, 1654 01:24:46,800 --> 01:24:50,840 Speaker 1: always have been from the time he played. I think 1655 01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:52,479 Speaker 1: you ought to be in the Hall of Fame. I 1656 01:24:52,560 --> 01:24:57,880 Speaker 1: know he he probably would shrug his shoulders as that, 1657 01:24:58,000 --> 01:24:59,920 Speaker 1: but I think you should be in the Hall of 1658 01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:05,200 Speaker 1: saying number one. So number two. This team is a 1659 01:25:05,200 --> 01:25:08,000 Speaker 1: good team. I don't think we ought to run around 1660 01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:10,160 Speaker 1: with our hair on fire. They've got one of the 1661 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:15,040 Speaker 1: best defensive coordinators, one of the best offensive coordinators, and 1662 01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:18,599 Speaker 1: one of the best head coaches in the league. Right, 1663 01:25:19,439 --> 01:25:23,920 Speaker 1: what happened last night? Hey, Jass's foot swift. He didn't 1664 01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:26,280 Speaker 1: get a grip on the ground. What are you gonna do? 1665 01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:29,680 Speaker 1: You can't do anything about that. There's one thing that 1666 01:25:29,760 --> 01:25:32,640 Speaker 1: hasn't been mentioned since I've been watching you guys today. 1667 01:25:33,400 --> 01:25:36,320 Speaker 1: I don't know whether maybe mentioned it before I started 1668 01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:39,320 Speaker 1: watching TV or not, but we also had one hundred 1669 01:25:39,360 --> 01:25:43,080 Speaker 1: and one yard kickoff return. Yeah, called back last night 1670 01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:47,160 Speaker 1: from a block in the back. That's your football game 1671 01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:50,920 Speaker 1: right there in a way. Yeah. Well, I'll hang up 1672 01:25:50,920 --> 01:25:53,000 Speaker 1: now and listen to you guys. Yeah, and thanks for 1673 01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:55,519 Speaker 1: watching Fred. We appreciate it. Um. Yeah, I did mention 1674 01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:58,320 Speaker 1: that because there were points taken off the board in 1675 01:25:58,360 --> 01:26:01,160 Speaker 1: this game by two penalties. Dawson Knox had an end 1676 01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:03,599 Speaker 1: around for a touchdown in the red zone that got 1677 01:26:03,640 --> 01:26:05,600 Speaker 1: taken off the board because of a holding penalty on 1678 01:26:05,640 --> 01:26:08,719 Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders. That drive only ends in a field goal, 1679 01:26:08,880 --> 01:26:11,479 Speaker 1: so there's four points there that are lost. And then 1680 01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:13,680 Speaker 1: the one under one yard kick returned for a touchdown 1681 01:26:14,160 --> 01:26:16,759 Speaker 1: that gets called back on a holding penalty on Andre Smith, 1682 01:26:16,760 --> 01:26:19,160 Speaker 1: and it was a holding penalty, there's no debating that. 1683 01:26:19,960 --> 01:26:22,599 Speaker 1: And that takes seven points off the board, and that 1684 01:26:22,880 --> 01:26:25,280 Speaker 1: wound up being the final drive of the game. When 1685 01:26:25,280 --> 01:26:27,880 Speaker 1: the Bills got the ball wherever they spotted it, I 1686 01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:30,840 Speaker 1: don't even remember now, after they called the return back 1687 01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:33,760 Speaker 1: because of the holding penalty, and they ultimately don't get 1688 01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:35,759 Speaker 1: in the end zone there, so that's another seven points. 1689 01:26:35,760 --> 01:26:38,920 Speaker 1: So seven plus four that's eleven points. You have those 1690 01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:41,920 Speaker 1: eleven points. I don't know. You can't argue what would 1691 01:26:41,920 --> 01:26:44,320 Speaker 1: the Titans have done after the kick return. They had 1692 01:26:44,320 --> 01:26:46,760 Speaker 1: scored on six straight possessions, Steve, they may have come 1693 01:26:46,880 --> 01:26:50,200 Speaker 1: right back down and sport again assaulted the game away too. 1694 01:26:50,080 --> 01:26:52,240 Speaker 1: Who would have had time to do it? Yeah, but 1695 01:26:52,320 --> 01:26:55,520 Speaker 1: that's eleven points that the Bills didn't have. It's it's unfortunate, 1696 01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:58,360 Speaker 1: but sometimes you leave points out there and it cost you, 1697 01:26:58,439 --> 01:27:01,160 Speaker 1: and it did right. We have to take a break, 1698 01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:03,639 Speaker 1: Steve and I to close it up when we return 1699 01:27:03,880 --> 01:27:07,360 Speaker 1: here on a Buffalo Football Tuesday on One Bill's Live, 1700 01:27:07,640 --> 01:27:23,680 Speaker 1: presented by Kalida Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. Side the 1701 01:27:23,800 --> 01:27:25,799 Speaker 1: Numbers is brought to you by the New York Lottery. 1702 01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:28,639 Speaker 1: Get out there and play with their one takeaway against 1703 01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:31,519 Speaker 1: the Titans. The Bills have sixteen takeaways through the season's 1704 01:27:31,520 --> 01:27:35,559 Speaker 1: first six games. They're most since recording sixteen in twenty eleven. 1705 01:27:35,840 --> 01:27:38,400 Speaker 1: Buffalo season total is at plus eleven for a second 1706 01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:41,720 Speaker 1: straight week, their largest balance at any point of a 1707 01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:45,840 Speaker 1: season since the plus fourteen margin they posted through seven 1708 01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:49,479 Speaker 1: games in twenty seventeen. We're gonna squeeze in one more 1709 01:27:49,520 --> 01:27:52,040 Speaker 1: phone call here in Dave in Florida. You gotta be 1710 01:27:52,080 --> 01:27:53,840 Speaker 1: quick because we're quickly running out of time. What do 1711 01:27:53,840 --> 01:27:57,400 Speaker 1: you have for us? Okay, just one question? What our kicker? 1712 01:27:59,000 --> 01:28:01,280 Speaker 1: Was you kicking him? Short? Delivered league? The whole night 1713 01:28:01,439 --> 01:28:06,519 Speaker 1: had to be Yeah, it was by design purpose. I 1714 01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:08,439 Speaker 1: think they thought that if they could kick it inside 1715 01:28:08,479 --> 01:28:11,880 Speaker 1: the ten or inside the five and outside the numbers, 1716 01:28:11,880 --> 01:28:13,360 Speaker 1: that they'd get an angle on the guy. And not 1717 01:28:13,360 --> 01:28:15,000 Speaker 1: get him back to the twenty five. They get him 1718 01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:16,840 Speaker 1: inside the twenty or inside the twenty five, and it 1719 01:28:17,200 --> 01:28:20,479 Speaker 1: gained him a few percentage points on the UH. But 1720 01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:23,040 Speaker 1: I think you know you play the percentages. I'm wondering 1721 01:28:23,080 --> 01:28:26,280 Speaker 1: that he never kicked out. I agree with you, Chris. 1722 01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:28,960 Speaker 1: I agree with you on the third down call. I 1723 01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:31,360 Speaker 1: thought it sucked. Have a good day, guys. All right, 1724 01:28:31,840 --> 01:28:36,160 Speaker 1: what's their down calls here talking about? I'm guessing because 1725 01:28:36,160 --> 01:28:38,320 Speaker 1: he didn't think they got the first down and the 1726 01:28:38,760 --> 01:28:40,880 Speaker 1: house was officiated. Here's what I'm gonna do. I know 1727 01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:42,960 Speaker 1: we got another week. We'll probably start still talking about it. 1728 01:28:43,000 --> 01:28:45,200 Speaker 1: I'm going to side. I'm going to the Sabers game tonight. Yeah, 1729 01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:47,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna flush the football game and go to the 1730 01:28:47,720 --> 01:28:52,000 Speaker 1: Sabers game. They're two and oh.

But I think we're all 1742 01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:22,760 Speaker 1: confident that Bills will bounce back the course correct among 1743 01:29:22,760 --> 01:29:25,120 Speaker 1: the best teams in the league.
