Says their three 9 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 3: game road trip comes to an end hopefully. 10 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 2: On a high note. 11 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 3: This week's game at the Jets incidentally presented by the 12 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 3: b FLO Store, the official retailer of the Buffalo Bills. 13 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 3: You've got a lot of trepidation about this. 14 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: I am worried about this football game. 15 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 4: The Jets have an elite defense and their offense is 16 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 4: going to get a little bit of a boost. They're 17 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 4: getting hammered publicly because Nate Hackett is still in the building. 18 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 2: They're going to rally there the Jets fans. 19 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, we know how it goes. I mean, when when 20 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 4: you reach a rough patch, all the coaches are on 21 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 4: the hot seat and they all get criticized. But now 22 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 4: you know, some pretty smart people are telling them what's 23 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 4: wrong with their offense. 24 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,919 Speaker 1: They might listen, you know, and. 25 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 4: That right, So I am so, I am so down 26 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 4: on this weekend, the vibe this weekend, and there's nothing. 27 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 4: The bills look like there's a chance they're going to 28 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 4: get healthier this week. So I have a few more 29 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 4: guys available than they had in the past. Although you know, 30 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 4: Shakir rap Cook now is not practicing, I mean, good grief, 31 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 4: and I was starting to you know, yes, it's better here, 32 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 4: but it's worse there kind of thing. So I'm yeah, 33 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 4: I am. I have got a bad vibe going on 34 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 4: here today. I got to get out of it. 35 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 3: Bill's practice updates are Lee coom or Lake Erie College 36 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 3: of Osteopathic Medicine. You wallow in that. 37 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 4: It's not so much. I'm not down on listen, I'm 38 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 4: not down on the bills at all. I'm one of 39 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 4: the guys who's kind of hanging tough with I like 40 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 4: the group. It's the problem is the Jets this week. 41 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 4: That's the problem. As they were in the first meeting. 42 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 3: The last several years, they give the bills offense problems. 43 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 3: They make them are in. 44 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, but I'll say this too. In years, particularly last year, 45 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 4: we had we had nothing to go on Rogers was 46 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 4: new there. Everything was new over there, and we got 47 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 4: them opening weekend. Now you got a month and a 48 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 4: half to look at him. You got to come up 49 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 4: with a plan. So, but we're not you know, our offense, 50 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 4: their defense is elite. Our offense has played poorly. The 51 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 4: last couple of weeks have not been themselves. Yes, the 52 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 4: fact that they stormed back, you know, in in this 53 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 4: game against Houston twenty to three down and it looked horribly, and. 54 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 3: The jack staged somewhat of a comeback last week in 55 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 3: London against the Vikings. Both of them came up short, 56 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 3: and both of them entered this game on two game 57 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 3: losing streaks. So the proverbial something's gotta give. Who's going 58 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 3: to use that? 59 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: Somebody has to? 60 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 3: Is somebody going to use that on the Monday night 61 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 3: telecasts time I'm not using. 62 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: Whichever team doesn't puke on its own shoes is going 63 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: to win. Yeah, Okay, that's. 64 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 3: Really riv You're really turning this into a sixty matchup. 65 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: What are the descriptions here? Are you? 66 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 2: Okay? 67 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 3: How did you eat for breakfast this morning? 68 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 2: I'm worried about you? 69 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 3: So, as I said, Bill's practice updates presented by Lee Coom. 70 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 3: You're Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. Here's the rundown. 71 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 3: Taron Johnson and Austin Johnson are both limited in practice 72 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 3: here today, and we'll have further updates after the media 73 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 3: viewing portion of practice closes and we can report on 74 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 3: some updated news there. Ed Oliver Khalil Shakir, James Cook, 75 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 3: and Curtis Samuel all not practicing today. Cook and Samuel 76 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 3: obviously the new additions to the injury report with foot 77 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 3: and toe injuries for each of them on the stationary 78 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 3: bike today. Shakier working on the side, so I think 79 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 3: that's encouraging actually. 80 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 2: As far as Shakir goes, yeah, you know, he's. 81 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 3: Not just sitting on an extra got an extra twenty 82 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 3: four hour, right and it is a Monday night game, 83 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 3: so you do have an extra day. So maybe and look, 84 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 3: we'll hear from coach Seawan McDermott, who's I will play 85 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 3: a little bit later on in this segment. I don't 86 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 3: know about you, Steve, but the way he was talking, 87 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 3: I kind of felt it was more Samuel and Cook 88 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 3: sounded more of the day to day variety, you know, 89 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 3: not something more major than that. But I guess we'll 90 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 3: know more obviously tomorrow in the days that follow, but 91 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 3: with an extra day, with the game being Monday night, 92 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 3: you know, hopefully they're just saying, you know what, let's 93 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 3: just give you guys an extra day here, maybe even two, 94 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 3: and take it from there. 95 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 4: I thought for sure when he said some of these 96 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 4: guys weren't practicing, I thought it was going to be 97 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 4: like as a veteran rest day or something like that. 98 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 4: But now they do have legitimate ailments that they're dealing with, 99 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 4: and yeah, like. 100 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 3: Your non participants, Oliver Shakir, Samuel Cook. Good news is 101 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 3: Taylor rap has been cleared from concussion protocol and he 102 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 3: is participating in practice today. We'll find out to what 103 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 3: degree when the Wednesday injury report is releasing. 104 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 4: He had a red contact non contact jersey on, but 105 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know if there's any contact going anyway, 106 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 4: but that was he was released from the protocol, but 107 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 4: he still got the jersey. 108 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 3: Then the final injury note concerns Darrington Evans, the running 109 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 3: back that was with the club all summer in preseason. 110 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 3: He is he has had his return to practice window 111 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 3: opened from injured reserve, so a twenty one day practice 112 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 3: window opens for Darrnton Evans, who went straight to IR 113 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 3: when the roster got reduced to fifty three, so he's 114 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 3: been there since the start of the regular season. So 115 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 3: I would assume unless there's a major injury on the roster, 116 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 3: he'll probably be placed on Buffalo's practice squad. If and 117 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 3: when they want to activate him off injured reserve, they 118 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 3: have twenty one days from today to make that decision, 119 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 3: so he's in a little bit of roster limbo, and 120 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 3: I would anticipate unless he is completely healthy and good 121 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 3: to go, they may wait that full duration before moving 122 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 3: him to a roster designation, presumably the practice squad, but 123 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 3: we'll have to wait and see. 124 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 4: Right now, they have Frank Gore Junior on the practice 125 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 4: squad as running back and that's it. Don't know that 126 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 4: they'd put another guy on the practice squad at that's 127 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 4: position if somebody's got to go. 128 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: If they do so, we'll keep an eye on that. 129 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: That's right. So that's kind of your practice update for now. 130 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 3: As we said, we'll get you some other updates when 131 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 3: the media viewing portion of practice closes. We will get 132 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 3: to coach McDermott in just a little bit here, just 133 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 3: some a few notes as we go around the NFL, 134 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 3: which is presented by Kalida Healthy, official healthcare system of 135 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills. And we already know that head coach 136 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 3: Robert Salad fired yesterday. We mentioned that on the show 137 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 3: yesterday as well. And don't know if you saw this, 138 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 3: but Aaron Rodgers already made weekly appearance on the Pat 139 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 3: McAfee show. Steve and I listened to his comments and 140 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 3: because obviously the running narrative, especially after Whatie Johnson yesterday said, 141 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 3: the only people he talked to before firing Robert Sala 142 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 3: was the GM Joe Douglas to inform him of his intentions, 143 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 3: and Aaron Rodgers. He claims what was discussed with Rogers 144 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 3: was not about the decision made on Sala, and Rogers 145 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 3: was left to explain his side of things on the 146 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 3: Pad McAfee show today. Because the media and fans believe 147 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 3: Rogers was instrumental in the firing of Robert Sala, and 148 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 3: he refuted that in his comments on the Pad McAfee show, 149 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 3: basically saying, this is a tough business. Robert Sala and 150 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,479 Speaker 3: I have a very close and solid he said, solid relationship, 151 00:08:54,960 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 3: so make of it what you will. It's hard not 152 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 3: to think it's a little bit of damage control by Rogers, 153 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 3: but we know how he operates well within the framework 154 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 3: of the media. 155 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 4: Really, the only justification the ownership gave for this coaching 156 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 4: firing move was the overall body of work, which you know, 157 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 4: he's got Zach Wilson drafted as a quarterback he's got 158 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 4: to play with. 159 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: I mean, yep. So whatever you. 160 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 4: Want to take from that, you're gonna you're calling a 161 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,079 Speaker 4: head coach out for a guy that you drafted. I 162 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 4: don't know how much Solid had to do it, but 163 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 4: it was Joe Douglas who drafted him, so he his 164 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 4: overall record stunk in large measure because of that. And 165 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 4: then also, and here's the only thing I can say, 166 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 4: okay to about changing head coaches. If they let it 167 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 4: go any further, if they start losing games and he 168 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 4: gives him what another week, another two weeks another, you know, 169 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 4: then it starts to be into the territory of too 170 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 4: late to save the season. 171 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: With a new head coach, whoever it may be. 172 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 4: Make no mistake, the Jets have designs on getting to 173 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 4: the playoffs and taking a swing at it. This year 174 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 4: if they wait longer than this, I don't know that 175 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 4: because here's the thing. It's right now, and anything can change. 176 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: Right now. 177 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 4: It's the Bills and the Jets in the division. The 178 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 4: Jets are at eight right now out of seven teams 179 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 4: that make the playoffs, sixteen team conference. The Jets are 180 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 4: at eight. The Bills are at four, you know, and 181 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 4: they lead the division. I mean that you're even a loss. 182 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 4: Neither one of these teams is crippled because of it, 183 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 4: unless you know, one of the quarterbacks gets hurt. 184 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 2: There's a lot of football. 185 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: It's a lot of football left. 186 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 4: But that's the only justific and it's and like I said, 187 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 4: it's a little it seems a little thin as a 188 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 4: justification for firing a head coach and the continuity and 189 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 4: the and the and everything that goes along with it. 190 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 4: And so the ownership's thinking if the longer we wait now, 191 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 4: the harder it's gonna be a salvage this season. We 192 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 4: got a salvage this season. I think they're too early. 193 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 4: I think they if they're gonna make this chance, it's 194 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:09,959 Speaker 4: too early. 195 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with it doesn't matter. Maybe here's the history. 196 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 3: Only four teams in NFL history have made a mid 197 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 3: season head coaching change and then made the playoffs. Only 198 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 3: one occurrence happened in the Super Bowl era. Okay, the 199 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 3: twenty twenty one Raiders, when John Gruden got the acts. 200 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 3: Special teams coach Rich Bisaccia took over, and they got 201 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 3: to the playoffs primarily because the Chargers screwed it up. 202 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 3: If you remember screwed it up. They could have tied 203 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 3: and both gone to the playoffs, right, and the Chargers 204 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 3: screwed it up, and then the Raiders went to the 205 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 3: wildcard round lost in the wildcard round. 206 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 4: And here's the thing too, That coaching change wasn't for 207 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 4: lack of performance. It was for emails from seven or 208 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 4: eight years O boy, yeah, remember that. It wasn't because 209 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 4: they didn't like Gruden and they weren't didn't have it together. 210 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 3: Racist and misogynistic game right right? Here are the other 211 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: three times a coach has been axed in the middle 212 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 3: of a season and the team successfully made the playoffs. 213 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 3: Are you ready? 214 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 1: Hey go? 215 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 3: The nineteen sixty one Houston Oilers and they won the 216 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 3: AFL title. 217 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: Good for them. 218 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 3: The nineteen fifty two Rams lost in the divisional round, 219 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 3: and the nineteen forty two Chicago Bears because coach George 220 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 3: Hallis left for World War Two. Those are your last 221 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 3: three out of four teams that made a mid season 222 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 3: coaching change and made the playoffs. They all happened before 223 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 3: you were born, Steve. 224 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: My dad who's ninety four, was twelve. 225 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 3: But the last one was the sixty one Oilers. That's 226 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 3: before you were born. Yeah, and then after that it's 227 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 3: the twenty one Raiders. 228 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. 229 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 3: So mid season coaching changes in the Super Bowl era, 230 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 3: it doesn't work. Once have they made the playoffs? 231 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: YEA, Well it's. 232 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 3: Gonna be tough. Yeah, and they got a talented team. 233 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 3: Don't get me wrong, they do that. 234 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 4: This is a little bit of a unique scenario, no 235 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 4: question about it. I can't get over the fact that 236 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 4: that even Jet fans are praising this or saying that 237 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 4: calling for Sala's head after the way he's coached, fans 238 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 4: are and that with that quarterback situation. 239 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 2: Fans want Hackett gone. 240 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 3: Well, I've got I've got high school buddies that are 241 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:44,319 Speaker 3: Jets fans. 242 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 2: They want Hacket gone. 243 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 4: You grew up in that world. I know you were. 244 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 4: You were were Giants or Jets in your. 245 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 3: I really wasn't either. 246 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 2: I was. 247 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 3: I was a baseball, football hockey fan. Football was just 248 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 3: kind of something I watched while the other seasons ended. 249 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 4: Right right, But that that I can't get over. And 250 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 4: I get it to Jet fans to well, to their 251 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 4: detriment and their credit, they dig deep and the New 252 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,439 Speaker 4: York media, right, they dig deep, so they think, no, 253 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 4: it's the it's the wide receiver coach, who's the problem, 254 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 4: you know that kind of stuff, right, it's the equipment 255 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 4: guy on the side. 256 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: Yes, they go deep. 257 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 4: Right, They're after anybody who's a problem, perceived problem. So 258 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 4: they're they think, hackets the problem. There's a good chance 259 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 4: there's there's some validity to it. I can't get this 260 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 4: Robert solid firing. I mean, I get it. 261 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 3: He's twenty four. 262 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 4: And thirty six all that, and just but the guys had. 263 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson. 264 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 3: He had six different quarterbacks in his tenure start games 265 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 3: for him. Come on, yeah, look, he's probably not blameless, 266 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 3: just from talking to a couple of people who cover this. 267 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: And he's got he's got a superstar quarterback. 268 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 3: Who who is not a superstar anymore. 269 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 4: He's not a superstar anymore. And he undermines his credibility 270 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 4: in the locker room. I'm and publicly he does it too. 271 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 4: Whether he's meaning to or not, he's doing it. 272 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 3: So anyway, just talking to some people who cover the 273 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 3: Jets yesterday, they kind of saw this coming. There was 274 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 3: talk about this possibly happening at the end of last season. Personally, 275 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 3: I think it would have been unfair, grossly unfair. Still, 276 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 3: but the problem was, Sala had a difficult time convincing 277 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 3: the defense that the offense was going to improve. 278 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 2: Because they and. 279 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 3: They essentially had no viable backup plan for a Rogers injury. 280 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 3: There was there was no viable backup plan. It was 281 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 3: Zach Wilson and Tim Boyle, you know what I mean. 282 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 3: So it's but to me, that's not on Sala. 283 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 4: That's on your GM, and yes, salass on your GM. 284 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: If behind the scenes, salas not pounding the table, I mean. 285 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 3: I guess if he says we need a better backup option, 286 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 3: go get it right, then Okay, it's Sala's absolved because 287 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 3: nothing was done. But neither him nor Joe Douglas did 288 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 3: anything as a backup plan for Aaron Rodgers in a 289 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 3: go for a year last year. Yeah, So now you 290 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 3: fast forward to this year and you have Tyrod Taylor 291 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 3: as an answer. Okay, better backup answer. Yes, but it's 292 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 3: a year too late to me. That's on Joe Douglas. 293 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 3: I'm sorry. But just from listening to them talk about 294 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 3: the situation, it sounded as if there were other issues, 295 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 3: and there were. I mean, you want to talk about 296 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 3: discipline on this roster. They had sixty more penalties than 297 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 3: their opponents during Sala's three year tenure. It was the 298 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 3: worst penalty margin in the NFL. So lack of discipline 299 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 3: in terms of style of play, you can listen to that, 300 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 3: and there were other things a foot there. So listening 301 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 3: to them talk about the situation, they kind of sensed 302 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,679 Speaker 3: someone was going to get asked. And I guess the 303 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 3: fact that it's the head coach. Just talking to the 304 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 3: people that cover the team in New Jersey, the way 305 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 3: they were talking, they're not as shocked by this as 306 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 3: maybe some of us are, ten, you know, four hundred 307 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 3: miles away. 308 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 1: Yeah. 309 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 3: So but let's get to head coach Sean McDermott's comments. 310 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 3: He addressed the media right before practice about an hour ago. 311 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 3: So we're gonna lay those out for you now here 312 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 3: on one Bill's Live Think. 313 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 5: Sean, do you have thoughts on what's going on in 314 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 5: New York over there with the coaching change? And I 315 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 5: guess the question I didn't want to ask was that 316 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 5: first game under a new coach is always a little 317 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 5: tricky for the opposing team, Like you guys, can you 318 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 5: just talk about that? 319 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, well, unfortunate part of our business. Number one. 320 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 7: Two is you know, aware of the of the uh, 321 00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 7: the coaching change, and really for us, we've got to 322 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 7: focus on our team and and the pieces that we 323 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 7: can control. 324 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 6: And that's really us. 325 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 7: In our process today, practicing and having the best practice 326 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 7: we can have today. 327 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 8: In the past, this defense is giving you guys a 328 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 8: little bit of an issue. What would your point to 329 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 8: that has kind of led to some struggles against this defense? 330 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 7: I think they give most people problems. Right, So, really 331 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 7: good defense, really talented defense. You know, it starts up 332 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 7: front for for for them, like most good defenses. And 333 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 7: they've got high draft picks, you know, scattered throughout the 334 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 7: entire defense, every level of defense. And so we'll have 335 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 7: our hands full. And another reason why we've got to 336 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 7: have a good, real good practice today.

It's not where you lot and I'm sure, 397 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 9: but along that piece, what about the tight end situation? 398 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 9: Because of it are guys that you've relied on the past, 399 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 9: and is it maybe a chance to get them to 400 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 9: step up and cover some of that slack if there's 401 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 9: if it. 402 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 7: Is slack, Uh yeah, holistically, yes, you know there's I 403 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 7: have tremendous trust in in that tight end room, and 404 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 7: tremendous trust and confidence in the wide receiver room. And 405 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 7: then tremendous and trust and tremendous trust and confidence and 406 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 7: Joe Braden and our offensive staff, and it's it's the 407 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 7: it's the collaboration and the integration of all of that 408 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 7: right of Hey, each and every one of us doing 409 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 7: our jobs, putting them in position, and then understanding what 410 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 7: that with that job is on that particular play, and 411 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 7: that we execute it to the highest level of detail 412 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 7: that we need to to to execute. And I think 413 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 7: the interesting thing about especially offensive football, is it's really 414 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 7: about execution. Not that defense isn't or special teams for 415 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 7: that matter, but it's, Hey, all it takes is for 416 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 7: one person not to execute their job at the highest level, 417 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 7: and the play can break down just because of one person. 418 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 7: The other ten are doing it at the at the 419 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 7: at the level that we needed. 420 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 6: To do it at. 421 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:19,360 Speaker 7: So you know, so we've got to continue to like everything, improve, 422 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 7: grow and and make sure that we are blending that 423 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 7: all together in the right way. 424 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 3: Lies When Dalton was drafted, it. 425 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 4: Seemed like the idea there was that two tight ends 426 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 4: with them and Dawson could provide a lot of versatility 427 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 4: to the offense. 428 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 1: Is that maybe not materialized in the way that you 429 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: envisioned it to this point. 430 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 7: I know that was talked about a lot, I think 431 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 7: by the media because you know, hey, we're gonna go 432 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 7: They're gonna go two tight ends over here and this 433 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 7: and that, and I get it. 434 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 6: I mean, that's that's the natural thought. 435 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 7: What really happens inside may be exactly that or sometimes 436 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 7: a blend of that, right Jay. So so I can't 437 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 7: say that it hasn't materialized because Dalton's only in his 438 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 7: second year, in his fifth game, going to the sixth 439 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 7: game of his second year. And listen, there are some 440 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 7: things we can do better, right, and you're always trying 441 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 7: to at the end of the day, no one's trying 442 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:13,679 Speaker 7: to not score points. 443 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 6: I can promise you that. 444 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 7: So what we have to do is continue to blend 445 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,360 Speaker 7: the personnel that we have and put them in positions. 446 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,880 Speaker 7: And I have extreme confidence that Joe's going to continue 447 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 7: to do that. And where we haven't to this point, 448 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 7: he will adjust. We will adjust. And you know, once 449 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 7: in a while, that's what it takes. You lose your 450 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 7: way a little bit and you got to find it 451 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 7: and you have to go back to, hey, what have 452 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 7: we done well? And why have we done so well? 453 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 7: And then try and try and get back to some 454 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,199 Speaker 7: of that and and then how can we grow, how 455 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 7: can we move forward in new ways? And with the 456 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 7: personnel that we have in terms of you mentioned the 457 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 7: two tight ends. So it's a constant, consistent approach, but 458 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 7: also you know, trying to grow every week through the 459 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 7: year and and so that you can become the team 460 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,360 Speaker 7: that you're trying to become. As as the season continues 461 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 7: to unfold, what a. 462 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 8: Pride do you take in this team and not having 463 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 8: lost more than two straight teams since you know Josh 464 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 8: was out of those three three plus weeks in twenty eighteen. 465 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 7: Well, I just think it goes back to consistent approach, 466 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 7: trying to be consistent for everyone. And that doesn't mean 467 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 7: that there isn't some you know, conversations that need to 468 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 7: be had, and I think that's part of the week 469 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:42,160 Speaker 7: to week coaching job is to meet the team where 470 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 7: it is and get them to always, as much as possible, 471 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 7: remain confident and you know, control what they can control 472 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 7: so that they can be the best version of themselves 473 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 7: individually and then collectively us as a team. 474 00:25:55,800 --> 00:26:00,880 Speaker 6: So that starts with you know, with with me. 475 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 7: And then goes into into Josh and all the way 476 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 7: through the team. So I'm confident in this group. We 477 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 7: take them one at a time. Certainly have a big 478 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 7: challenge in front of us at New York this week 479 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 7: and against a Hall of Fame quarterback and. 480 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 6: A really good defense. 481 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 7: So we just got to stay focused on taking it 482 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:21,959 Speaker 7: one day at a time and in one game at 483 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 7: a time. 484 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 12: Here, Sean, I know when Chase Clay hoops here in 485 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 12: the spring and summer, you have a lot of positive 486 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 12: things to say about him, and I know he's an 487 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 12: injury of selling.

And could you envision him making 489 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 12: a return to Buffalo. 490 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 2: And any times? 491 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 7: Holistically, that's a better question for for Brandon. I have 492 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 7: a ton of respect and love for Chase. I thought 493 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 7: he did a real nice job when he was here, 494 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 7: and you know, after that, it's that's that's a personal 495 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 7: decision at that. 496 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 10: Point, Sean. 497 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 13: You mentioned earlier about how sometimes you lose your way 498 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 13: and need to find yourself back to gain to do 499 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 13: what the team does well. When you look at the 500 00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 13: moments where the offense has had success this season are 501 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 13: sort of the characteristics of it, of what you guys 502 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 13: do do well that you guys have to get back to. 503 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 6: That's a strategy question a little bit. 504 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 7: To be honest with you, I understand where you're coming from, 505 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 7: but I just think more than anything in frontness to 506 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 7: your question that in order to execute one play, it's 507 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 7: important that there is alignment with everyone being on the 508 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 7: same page of what this play is designed to do 509 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 7: and why we're doing it and how we need to 510 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,400 Speaker 7: do it, so that there is a true connection from 511 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 7: one player who plays next to another player who plays 512 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 7: next to another player. I don't know if that's making 513 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 7: sense to you, but that's the level of alignment that 514 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 7: we need, and that takes communication, that takes detail, that 515 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 7: takes listening as well, and. 516 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 6: So it is just so important that. 517 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 7: We do that, and we do it at the highest level, 518 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 7: and we do it if we need a position groups 519 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 7: meeting together versus just you know, you can be the 520 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 7: way it is in football, you have different meeting rooms 521 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 7: a ligne running backs d line linebackers. Well, sometimes what's 522 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 7: going on in this campfire over here, and it's said 523 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,160 Speaker 7: one way and maybe being said differently in this campfire 524 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 7: over here, So you need to sit around the campfire 525 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 7: a little bit more together sometimes so that we're all 526 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 7: singing this, you know, the song the right way. So 527 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 7: it's kind of a weird analogy, I guess, but that's honestly, 528 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 7: that's how I see it. So and as a coordinator 529 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 7: when I was a coordinator, sometimes you go room to 530 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 7: room and you're trying to just listen and ensure that 531 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 7: all right, my d line coach is saying it the 532 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 7: same way as a linebacker coach, and that's important because 533 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 7: those two positions are connected, right, So that's that alignment 534 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 7: is huge organizationally in this case. 535 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 6: To try and get one play run the right way. 536 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 12: Sean some new leaderships and guys in some different spots 537 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 12: in that locker room. 538 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 6: This seas this a last one day. 539 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 9: A little adversity right now. 540 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 12: What do you want from the leadership in that locker 541 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 12: room right now to get you through this? 542 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: Yeah? 543 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,959 Speaker 7: I think that they've been they've been good. They're growing 544 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 7: as well. We've got you know what, I would consider 545 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 7: some young, younger and newer leaders on this team, as 546 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 7: well as playing a number of young players and newer players. 547 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 6: But I think just more than anything. 548 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 7: Josh, it's hey, be you number one and set the example. 549 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 7: And it's not that they have and it's just understand 550 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 7: that their job is to number one, set the example 551 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 7: for some of the some of the young players, A 552 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 7: young quotion of our roster. You know, we talked about 553 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 7: a little bit this morning of Hey, the one thing 554 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 7: we can control is how prepared we are in our preparation. 555 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 7: And those young players they don't know because they're coming 556 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 7: from college and they think they know, but they don't, 557 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 7: right and until you learn the hard way. And so 558 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 7: it's their job, these veterans to lead by example first 559 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 7: and foremost that these young players see this is what 560 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 7: it's supposed to look like, to get it to this 561 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 7: standard that we expect to have around here. 562 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 6: All right, thanks guys. 563 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 3: All right, that's head coach Sean McDermot addressing the media 564 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 3: about an hour ago. And just for some additional practice updates. 565 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 3: Red non contact jerseys today being worn by Mac Collins, 566 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 3: Terrell Bernard, Tarren Johnson, and Taylor Rapp Again. Well, we'll 567 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 3: get more info as we see the level of participation 568 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 3: in wednesday's injury reports. She'll come out later this afternoon. 569 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 3: But interesting that Bernard is wearing one after not wearing 570 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 3: one last week in practice. Could be just precautionary, you know, 571 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 3: keep hits off of him after playing in a game 572 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 3: last week and playing in every single snap on defense. 573 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 3: So that's a possibility, and obviously if he's still wearing 574 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 3: one again tomorrow, well then maybe it becomes more of 575 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 3: a question as to what's exactly going on there. James Cook, 576 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 3: Curtis Samuel riding the bike stationary bike, getting to workout 577 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 3: and conditioning there with strength and conditioning coaches, and Khalil 578 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 3: Shakir doing some running on the sidelines with strength and 579 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 3: conditioning coaches as he's trying to work his way back. 580 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 3: I think the best news there concerning Shakir would be 581 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 3: I think if this was like a high ankle sprain, 582 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,479 Speaker 3: he wouldn't be doing this a week removed from the injury, 583 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Yeah, So the fact that 584 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 3: he's back and doing something athletic is I think encouraging, 585 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 3: especially knowing you have an extra day before you get 586 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 3: to Monday night. So we'll see what tomorrow brings for 587 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 3: those players, and hopefully more of those guys are of 588 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 3: the day to day of variety. At Oliver not out 589 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 3: at the practice field, coming trying to come back from 590 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 3: the hamstring injury. He is a non participant in practice today. 591 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 3: Got to take a break here. But when we come back, 592 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 3: topic of discussion for you to weigh in on concerns 593 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 3: the Bills and their Monday night matchup.

Yes, very successful early in his 656 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 3: career with the Tampa Bay Bucks, even won a Super 657 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 3: Bowl with them, then forgot what was important to maintaining 658 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 3: his football career. Bucks got tired of the act, released him. 659 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,719 Speaker 3: Eagles signed him to a one year contract.

He is 662 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 3: a great athlete. If he plays well, he can be 663 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 3: a starter for us. If not, we have draft picks 664 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 3: like Nakobe Dean and others ready to go. He was 665 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 3: so poor they released him in week six. They did 666 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 3: it for a reason. Yeah, I think this guy better 667 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 3: change his stripes very quickly or his career is going 668 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 3: to be over. To me, that doesn't match up with 669 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 3: Bill's DNA ron. 670 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 4: That's right, And let's take talk to him face to 671 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 4: face and he impresses them and he plays for nothing. 672 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 4: You know, relatively speaking, you might seem like brought in, 673 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 4: put on the practice squad and say, let's give him 674 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 4: a shot. See what he does. But that's it that 675 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 4: I mean, Yeah, he's not gonna save. 676 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 3: Because let's not forget the Bills gave a player like 677 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 3: this an opportunity to change their spots this offseason in 678 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 3: Chase Claypool. That didn't go well either. I can't see 679 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:20,879 Speaker 3: them going down that road again. 680 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 1: That's right. 681 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,239 Speaker 3: Let's go to Tom on the West side next. What's 682 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 3: up Tom? 683 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 16: Hey, guys, everybody kept talking about the end of that 684 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 16: Houston game, the last possession, And what I want to 685 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,760 Speaker 16: see is I want to see Josh checking the ball 686 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 16: down out of the RPO more often, because the beginning 687 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,280 Speaker 16: of that game he was trying to throw long balls 688 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 16: and they were all in completions and they went three 689 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,720 Speaker 16: and out. So Josh has to check that ball down. 690 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, Tom, you are one hundred and fifty percent correct, 691 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 3: and it's unfortunate. But part of the reason that his 692 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,720 Speaker 3: completion percentage was so low was he threw a ton 693 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 3: of low percentage throws. And here's the other thing. He 694 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 3: had guys open deep down the field and miss them. 695 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 3: Everybody's ragging on Mac Hollins and Dalton Kincaid. Josh missed 696 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 3: a couple of throws. And this isn't the first week 697 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 3: we've seen it. I mean, you could go back to 698 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 3: Week one. Mark wes Valdez scanling open on a post 699 00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 3: route missed them, and there are others. So Josh has 700 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 3: got to sync up the timing of the deep passing 701 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 3: game as well. We know he's capable of hitting those 702 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 3: deep shots, but since week one he has missed them. 703 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 3: It's gotta be better on his end of that equation too. 704 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's got and one of the things he a 705 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,360 Speaker 4: quarterback needs to do is trust the guys he's thrown to. 706 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 4: And we've seen this and I'll give you examples. If 707 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 4: for Bill, for football fans who watch other games and 708 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 4: other players over the years think about Russ Wilson, how 709 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 4: he puts these balls up their moon balls, I mean, 710 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 4: like throws it to the sky really high arching. 711 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 1: Let's it go early. 712 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 3: That's partly because he's five to eleven. 713 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, But here's the thing. The ball's in the air 714 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 4: and the receiver goes and gets it, and Josh still 715 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 4: puts a ton of velocity on the ball, and that 716 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 4: brings the arc down. There's less time to adjust to it. 717 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:20,800 Speaker 1: As a receiver. 718 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 4: Josh needs to throw it to an area on the 719 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 4: field with the clock to allow the receiver to go 720 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 4: get it. 721 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 1: He doesn't do that. 722 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 4: He tries to put the ball on him and if 723 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 4: he's off balance, or if his feet aren't right, and 724 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:34,920 Speaker 4: if his arm angle's not right, or if somebody's in 725 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 4: his face, he can't he can't make the throw good enough. 726 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,879 Speaker 4: So that's one of the issues for Josh. It's always 727 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 4: been his issue because of the strength of his arm. 728 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 3: So it's kind of like a put it up instead 729 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 3: of a put it out right. 730 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 4: You got to put it down to an air. You 731 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 4: just throw it out there and let the guy run 732 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 4: and get it and that's hard for a quarterback to 733 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 4: do because it's you know, there's eleven defenders out there. 734 00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: One of them might run under. 735 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:00,839 Speaker 3: It, and the other thing too. Concerning Tom's comment about 736 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,840 Speaker 3: checking the ball down, I thought after week three we 737 00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 3: had seen a maturation in Josh's game where he was 738 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 3: taking the ten to fifteen yard play instead of going 739 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 3: for the forty yarder, and then all of a sudden 740 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,880 Speaker 3: it went away these last two weeks. So hopefully he 741 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 3: gets back to that and the passing game becomes more 742 00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 3: efficient and more like what we saw in the first 743 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 3: three weeks. We go to Mark in West senecon next 744 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 3: let's pull him up here. What do you got for 745 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:29,399 Speaker 3: his mark? 746 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 17: Well, you guys are stealing my thunder And I have 747 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:39,360 Speaker 17: said for two seasons that the last step in Josh's 748 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 17: development is him becoming a general out on the field, 749 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 17: a field general. And to me, what that means is 750 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 17: we all know Josh can make great plays at any 751 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 17: point in time during the game, on any given play 752 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 17: if he chooses, but if he gets in his consciousness 753 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:03,280 Speaker 17: that this is all about maintaining possession right now, getting 754 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,319 Speaker 17: first downs, matriculating the ball down the field to get 755 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 17: into the red zone and take some shots that way. Especially, 756 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 17: you know, we hear about Brandon Bean or around. I'm sorry, 757 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 17: Sean McDermot talking about a situational football situation. What's the 758 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 17: situation in the game. He needs to be more aware 759 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 17: of that. And I don't know that we're ever going 760 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,319 Speaker 17: to get that out of Josh getting that because he 761 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 17: always wants to be a playmaker and he knows he 762 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 17: can do it. That he's always going to have that 763 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 17: bread fire in him. But it seems to really come 764 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:41,319 Speaker 17: out when games are not going well. Yep, okay, and 765 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 17: when it becomes apparent that in Josh's mind he has 766 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,800 Speaker 17: got I got to make something happen. I got to 767 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 17: make something happen. Well, somehow, some way, somebody on that 768 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,280 Speaker 17: sideline has got to grab him by that face mask 769 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,959 Speaker 17: and say, Josh, we need to hold the ball right now. 770 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:56,760 Speaker 15: Okay. 771 00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 17: We don't need to throw the ball thirty yards down 772 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 17: the field on vertical routes with thirty two seconds left 773 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:05,760 Speaker 17: in the game. We don't need that right now. 774 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 15: Okay. 775 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 17: So and that is the last development of his game. Okay. 776 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 17: If you look at the history of Tom Brady, Okay, 777 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,239 Speaker 17: Tom didn't have a great arm. He had a good arm, 778 00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 17: he'd have a great arm. He matriculated the ball all 779 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 17: the time, and then he picked his points where he 780 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,280 Speaker 17: would take a shot. Yeah, and taking a shot didn't 781 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 17: mean forty yards down the field. It might have meant 782 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 17: twenty two yards downfield, really putting a defense on their heels. 783 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 17: And I'm still waiting for Josh to do that. And 784 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 17: I hope and pray for the best of the Bills 785 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 17: and for Josh because without a doubt, if he starts 786 00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 17: doing that consistently, he is, without a doubt, the best 787 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:46,959 Speaker 17: quarterback in the league. 788 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks, mar, I appreciate it. Yeah. 789 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, that's a maturation that Patrick Mahomes has mastered after 790 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 3: his first few years thrown it all over the field, 791 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,400 Speaker 3: behind the back, deep down the field. Then he loses 792 00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 3: Tyreek Hill. He adopts the Tom Mady tom Brady model 793 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 3: of quarterbacking, and it's just making smart decisions every single week. 794 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 3: He doesn't have anybody worth a damn to throw to 795 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 3: right now with all the injuries they have, but he 796 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,320 Speaker 3: just makes smart decisions and makes the easy play instead 797 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,240 Speaker 3: of I'm gonna get it all in one play. 798 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,799 Speaker 4: That was You think back to what we were talking 799 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:18,720 Speaker 4: about after the first couple of weeks of the season. 800 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 4: You think back to what we were saying it and 801 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 4: I said it here. The thing that's amazing about this offense, 802 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 4: the way it was clicking when they were scoring thirty 803 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 4: plus points a game in the first three weeks, was 804 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 4: how easy it looked. 805 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,400 Speaker 3: And then that's just last two weeks. 806 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,880 Speaker 1: It was awful. Comparison in comparison. 807 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 3: Got to take a break here, more of your phone 808 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 3: calls when we get back here. On one Bill's Live, 809 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 3: presented by Colid of Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio Game 810 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:04,240 Speaker 3: daven is presented by Best Self, Best Self Behavioral Health, 811 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 3: the official mental health partner of the Buffalo Bills, and 812 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 3: this week we take a look at game day mentality 813 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,160 Speaker 3: for the first ten minutes of Monday night. Steve, you 814 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:20,360 Speaker 3: know it's going to be a wild atmosphere, hostile, to 815 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 3: say the least. They'll be doing the Jets Jets, Jets 816 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 3: Jets thing. What is the mindset of the players have 817 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 3: to be to weather the storm of the first ten 818 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:29,920 Speaker 3: minutes of that contest. 819 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:31,839 Speaker 4: Well, you got to expect it, and when you see it, 820 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:33,879 Speaker 4: you do it and you use it as fuel and 821 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 4: you just you try and get yourself to the point 822 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 4: where you can execute at such a high level that 823 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,719 Speaker 4: you're prepared enough to execute at a high level and 824 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 4: take them out of it. I mean, that's your goal 825 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,280 Speaker 4: to just play well enough to quiet the crowd some success. 826 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 4: And that doesn't mean a touchdown on the first play. 827 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:53,839 Speaker 4: That means a third and short. Hey first, barely get 828 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 4: it first, even if they measure it first down. From 829 00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 4: then on, just just keep building small successes on small successes. 830 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:01,400 Speaker 1: You don't have to. 831 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,400 Speaker 4: You're not gonna win the game in the first ten minutes. 832 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 4: Don't let them win it in the first ten minutes. 833 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:13,000 Speaker 4: And that's really it. You know, all these guys coaching 834 00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 4: players like have been in situations like this in games 835 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:17,359 Speaker 4: like this where it's loud and all that, and you 836 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 4: know how it makes you feel inside when it's on 837 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 4: your side, like here in Heimark. Put your head down, 838 00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:27,719 Speaker 4: do your job. Small successes are going to lead to 839 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 4: bigger ones, and that's what you got to do. 840 00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:33,400 Speaker 3: So that is game day mentality presented by Best Self 841 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 3: Behavioral Health. Back to the phones we go, where we 842 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,520 Speaker 3: are asking you, aside from a win, what must you 843 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 3: see from the Bills on Monday night against the Jets 844 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 3: to Ryan in Toronto. 845 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 18: What do you have for us, Ryan, Chris Steve, I 846 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 18: got two, well, one of them Reality of Football Therapy 847 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 18: have going on today. That is I was playing on 848 00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 18: them as actually a party bus leaving from Toronto to Detroit. 849 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,760 Speaker 18: It's a Thanksgiving and planning. I'm going to the Guests 850 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,839 Speaker 18: Bills game Monday night. Unfortunately, my family decided to have 851 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 18: a tank living game on Monday night, so I have 852 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 18: to give that up. I know, man, I was so 853 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:17,400 Speaker 18: looking forward to him. It's like, whatever it is, what 854 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:20,200 Speaker 18: it is. Family comes first and for football messages. 855 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:20,720 Speaker 1: Yes. 856 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 7: Uh. 857 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 18: Secondly, when you say about what his Bills had to do, 858 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 18: I think they had to come out firing and not 859 00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 18: be flat like the last two games. And to be honest, man, 860 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 18: they've been eating and they've been getting fed for the 861 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,800 Speaker 18: first three games. Start feeling them again. But they're being hungry, 862 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 18: so come at hungry. 863 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 3: Yeah all right, Brian, thanks very much. Enjoy your Canadian Thanksgiving. 864 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:46,399 Speaker 3: That is a tough one, man. 865 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll say this though. He's right. 866 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 4: The Bills have come out in those first three games, 867 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 4: remember they came They did come out and have some 868 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 4: early success offensively. I mean, I think, as one of 869 00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:00,440 Speaker 4: my buddies pointed this out, the Bills never have not 870 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 4: been winning the coin. 871 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,240 Speaker 3: Toss this year, not the last three games, right. 872 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:04,399 Speaker 2: So. 873 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 4: They've had some early success in those games early on 874 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 4: in the year where they come out just get a 875 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 4: couple of first times, even if they don't score on 876 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 4: that opening drive or whatever. Change the field position, get 877 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 4: a feel for what they're doing defensively, string some positive 878 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,800 Speaker 4: plays together, and take it to see what happens. 879 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:26,760 Speaker 1: But just yeah, come out clicking. 880 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 4: I know it's easier said than done, no question about it, 881 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 4: but I think that's really important. And like I said, 882 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:36,840 Speaker 4: I'm not looking for a nahem Hinz opening kickoff touchdown 883 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 4: like we saw against New England a couple of years 884 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:42,839 Speaker 4: ago after Damar's incident. I just come out and look good, 885 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:46,520 Speaker 4: look sharp, make some completions and get some guys involved 886 00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:49,959 Speaker 4: and see where it goes from there. Like I said, 887 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:52,320 Speaker 4: you're not gonna win this game in the first ten minutes, 888 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 4: but you got to keep the Jets from winning it. 889 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 3: Back to the phones to Steve in Virginia. What we 890 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:00,320 Speaker 3: got for Steve? 891 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:02,160 Speaker 19: Hello, how you doing, guys? 892 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:02,440 Speaker 2: Good? 893 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,280 Speaker 19: Hey, listen, because I'm a wise ask and to respect 894 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:08,720 Speaker 19: your format, my answer to your fan question is yes, 895 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 19: but as a member of both tribes, the Bills and 896 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 19: the Democrats are bedwetters. It's a long season. You made 897 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,799 Speaker 19: a point of the fact that over the past four 898 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 19: years of the success that we had two back to 899 00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 19: back losses. It's a transitional year. And I don't even 900 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:25,560 Speaker 19: get to the question of how long McDermott's leash is. 901 00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:30,920 Speaker 19: That said, after the Ravens loss, I had post fromat 902 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:34,920 Speaker 19: Express syndrome flashbacks to the glory years when you got 903 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:38,799 Speaker 19: curb stomped Chris to borrow your term by Kansas City 904 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 19: thirty six, Steelers twenty to three and Oilers I think 905 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 19: it was twenty seven to three. But you know, listen, 906 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 19: long season, they got room to improve, they've proven improven 907 00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 19: track record. Let's go. But the question that I really 908 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 19: want answered is you guys didn't take the bait of 909 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:56,919 Speaker 19: a road caller that you had a couple of days 910 00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 19: ago comparing McDermott as being a lesser coach and Knatzer 911 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 19: lovey or maybe what's what's what's your what's your take 912 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 19: on that comparison? 913 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:07,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, all I stated the other day was 914 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 3: that McDermott has a higher winning percentage as head coach 915 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:14,520 Speaker 3: of the Bills than Levy does. It's a fact he's 916 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:17,920 Speaker 3: by winning percentage, you know. 917 00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 2: Number one. 918 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 3: Now, obviously Marv had a Hall of Fame career for 919 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:27,200 Speaker 3: AFC titles consecutive by the way, and what was it, 920 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:32,319 Speaker 3: five AFC title games with the Bills, So I mean 921 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 3: the record speaks for itself there. I'm not for a 922 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:39,280 Speaker 3: second gonna say Saw McDermott has reached Marv Levy's level, 923 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 3: But I think if there are similarities, and you can 924 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:44,000 Speaker 3: speak to this better than I can, having played under 925 00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:48,240 Speaker 3: that man, But I think the quintessential strength of both 926 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:55,640 Speaker 3: are they are principled men who are natural leaders. And 927 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,840 Speaker 3: that is not what you always get when you promote 928 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 3: a coordinator to a head coaching position. In this league. 929 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,680 Speaker 3: You can run down a laundry list of guys who 930 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:09,400 Speaker 3: are outstanding play callers, but cannot command the room, cannot 931 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,759 Speaker 3: lead a group of men the way they need to 932 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 3: be led and be successful in this league. That is 933 00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:18,160 Speaker 3: where I think they are most similar. And I mean 934 00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:18,960 Speaker 3: feel free to weigh in. 935 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:19,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's hard. 936 00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,920 Speaker 4: I mean It's like comparing Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant 937 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:26,839 Speaker 4: and Lebron It's different eras, and it's different types of games, 938 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:30,200 Speaker 4: and they're different guys under different circumstances. Marv Levy's a 939 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 4: Hall of Fame coach. I mean, obviously Chuck Knox was 940 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,160 Speaker 4: a very good coach. But you couldn't be more different 941 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:39,480 Speaker 4: between Chuck Knox and Marv Levy, both great coaches. 942 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:42,360 Speaker 1: It's just it's hard to do. 943 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:46,280 Speaker 4: They're all three of the guys you mentioned, McDermott, Knox, Levy, 944 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 4: they're all really really. 945 00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 1: Good coaches, really good. 946 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:51,799 Speaker 4: None of them won a Super Bowl, though, and mcdermot's 947 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 4: the only one with a chance left to he has won. 948 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,920 Speaker 4: I would venture to say probably, Well, I don't know. 949 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 4: I have to go back and look Brown. I can 950 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:03,600 Speaker 4: look this up. McDermott's won a lot of playoff games. 951 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,640 Speaker 4: Those are hard to win. McDermott has won one each 952 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:12,080 Speaker 4: of the last four years, five years, five years. That's 953 00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 4: really hard to do. It's consistently good. It's giving yourself 954 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,959 Speaker 4: a chance. You're gonna get into some really rarefied air. 955 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,359 Speaker 4: Getting into the second round of the NFL playoffs and 956 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:25,359 Speaker 4: doing it consistently. It takes a great coach to get 957 00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 4: their period. I think you can say whatever you want 958 00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:32,160 Speaker 4: about Ali can never win the forget it. It's nobody 959 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 4: else has done it with Andy Reid in this era. 960 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 4: And then you go back to eras. Marv did it 961 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 4: a bunch of eras Andy Reid did in Philly and 962 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 4: he got canned and Belichick, and Belichick has done it. 963 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 1: It's really hard to do and not for nothing. 964 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:55,359 Speaker 3: Three of the five times that he's been bounced from 965 00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:59,040 Speaker 3: the playoffs, it's been done by his mentor and without question, 966 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:02,520 Speaker 3: the best quarterback play today, Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid's 967 00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 3: those are three of his six playoff exits against the 968 00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:08,200 Speaker 3: best quarterback in football. Who oh, by the way, beats 969 00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:09,719 Speaker 3: everybody else, So. 970 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 1: Right, we're not alone. 971 00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,480 Speaker 4: And yeah, the Bills regular season speaking, the Bills have 972 00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 4: beaten the Chiefs more than we're talking about playoffs. But yeah, 973 00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:20,880 Speaker 4: playoffs the same thing. I mean, it's uh, yeah, you 974 00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:22,400 Speaker 4: can say what you want. I mean, you got a 975 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,879 Speaker 4: team that's back to back world champions and it's not 976 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:27,439 Speaker 4: just the Bills that are climbing that wall. 977 00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:29,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a lot of teams. 978 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:31,520 Speaker 3: Got to take a break here, but we're wide open 979 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 3: for your phone calls to start the second hour, So 980 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:35,360 Speaker 3: if you're on hold, stay there.

But anyways, my question 999 00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:12,480 Speaker 20: was kind of coaching slash player and listening to you guys. 1000 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:16,200 Speaker 20: This week and last week talking to Greg co Cell 1001 00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:21,120 Speaker 20: about Josh leaving the pocket early. My question, it might 1002 00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:22,840 Speaker 20: be kind of towards Steve because he's been in the 1003 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:23,399 Speaker 20: locker room. 1004 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:25,319 Speaker 10: But what. 1005 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:28,759 Speaker 20: One, how do you correct that because he's not going 1006 00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 20: to get bench like you know, when Cook dropped the 1007 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 20: pass or something like that, they put him on the bench. 1008 00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:37,839 Speaker 20: But when does that become a player issue or when 1009 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 20: does that become a coaching issue, Like he's not getting coached, 1010 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:46,239 Speaker 20: so it's not getting corrected, or he's getting corrected, but 1011 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:49,040 Speaker 20: it's just not getting fixed. So does that make sense? 1012 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:53,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll say this, it's it's a player issue first 1013 00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:56,759 Speaker 4: and foremost. And don't think he's not getting coached. Of 1014 00:53:56,760 --> 00:54:00,160 Speaker 4: course he is. I mean if if Jimoke's like all 1015 00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 4: of us are noticing it, so were they and they're 1016 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:05,560 Speaker 4: talking about it. As for Josh fixing it, you know, 1017 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 4: he wants to fix it, and he's shown the ability 1018 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:09,640 Speaker 4: to stay in there, but his offensive line is going 1019 00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 4: to have to earn his trust back. He can't get 1020 00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 4: whacked in the first series of a game three times, 1021 00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:17,960 Speaker 4: and then you have to wonder why he's leaving early. 1022 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 4: That's got to be fixed as well. So there, the 1023 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 4: protection upfront's got to be good and the offensive line, 1024 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 4: if some of the metrics will tell you the offensive 1025 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,320 Speaker 4: line has been very good in pass protection. 1026 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:31,480 Speaker 2: It was the first three weeks, although some of the. 1027 00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:34,359 Speaker 4: Metrics say, you know, if your guy's not getting sacked, 1028 00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:36,919 Speaker 4: your offensive line's doing good. Well, Josh is never gets 1029 00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:39,879 Speaker 4: sacked because he outruns most defensive linemen even the time, 1030 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:41,759 Speaker 4: even last year, the big hit he took, it doesn't 1031 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 4: count as a sack. So they need to earn his 1032 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 4: trust knowing they can protect him. He needs to have 1033 00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:51,960 Speaker 4: options in the passing game so we can get rid 1034 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:56,040 Speaker 4: of it quick when when he does feel pressure. So 1035 00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:57,839 Speaker 4: it's a lot of things that layers to it. But yeah, 1036 00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:00,560 Speaker 4: it's a player issue first and foremost. And if Josh 1037 00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 4: leaves before he needs to leave, one of the reasons 1038 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:07,200 Speaker 4: is one he doesn't either it could be two things. 1039 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:10,160 Speaker 4: It could be either he doesn't trust his protection or 1040 00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 4: he doesn't see anybody getting separation. All of that's got 1041 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 4: to be fixed. All of that's got to be fair. 1042 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:18,760 Speaker 4: I'm not saying it's broken. It could be just Josh 1043 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 4: wanting to leave, but and it could be three different things. 1044 00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:25,439 Speaker 4: I mean, could be two different things on any given down. 1045 00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:27,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, all of. 1046 00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 4: That goes into the mix. They coach him up on 1047 00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:31,880 Speaker 4: every single snap you take. They get coached up on 1048 00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 4: every single snap. Don't kid yourself that those film study 1049 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:40,319 Speaker 4: sessions are not just you're not sitting there with popcorn 1050 00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:43,360 Speaker 4: waiting for the end of the movie. It's a study session, 1051 00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 4: and it's a critique session, and some of it's pretty ugly. 1052 00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:50,040 Speaker 4: You got to live through it, so that's it. Don't 1053 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 4: think they're not getting coached up on every aspect of it, 1054 00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 4: even stuff we're not aware of. So it's always a 1055 00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 4: player issue, and none of these guys are going without 1056 00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:01,840 Speaker 4: getting cod just through stuff like we're talking about. 1057 00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:06,880 Speaker 3: Let's move along to Clay in Tennessee. Let's pull him 1058 00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:07,239 Speaker 3: up to here. 1059 00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 21: Guys, how y'all doing doing good? 1060 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 10: Good? 1061 00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:10,399 Speaker 16: Hey? 1062 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,720 Speaker 21: Yeah, yeah, I'll make it quick to answer the question. 1063 00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 21: What do we need to see Monday night? It's keyon 1064 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:16,920 Speaker 21: coleman man, what are we doing out here? The guy's 1065 00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:20,200 Speaker 21: got sixteen targets through five weeks. I know, I know 1066 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 21: Sean doesn't trust the young guys, he doesn't trust in rookies, 1067 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 21: but we don't have a choice. We got rid of 1068 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 21: Diggs in the offseason. Whether that was the right call 1069 00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:29,520 Speaker 21: or the wrong call, I know there was turmoil there, 1070 00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:32,240 Speaker 21: but we did not go out and draft in alpha. 1071 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:34,320 Speaker 21: We did not go out and address the position in 1072 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:37,400 Speaker 21: free agency we could have. We're not in talks for 1073 00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:40,960 Speaker 21: Devanta Adams, We're not in talks for Amarti Cooper, DeAndre Hopkins. 1074 00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:43,360 Speaker 21: If we're gonna have Coleman be the one. I know 1075 00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 21: that he's got game to learn. I know he's not 1076 00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:47,319 Speaker 21: getting separation, but we don't have we don't have the 1077 00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 21: time or the patience to keep letting him develop on 1078 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:52,120 Speaker 21: the sidelines. We got to get him out there. We 1079 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 21: got to give him them elak neighbor streat me, get 1080 00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:55,960 Speaker 21: him twenty targets a game. Let's see what this kid 1081 00:56:56,000 --> 00:57:00,319 Speaker 21: can do. Because we're we're in the window right now. Guys, Josh, 1082 00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:03,400 Speaker 21: he's only getting older. He's the top three in the league. 1083 00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:05,520 Speaker 21: We got to get him to the big game as 1084 00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:06,279 Speaker 21: quick as we can. 1085 00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:09,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think that's why they drafted Kean. 1086 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:11,120 Speaker 3: I don't know if they expect him to be an 1087 00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:14,000 Speaker 3: Alph in his rookie year, but I think they believe 1088 00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,000 Speaker 3: he at least has the potential to grow into that. 1089 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:21,040 Speaker 3: And look, he's made some high degree of difficulty receptions 1090 00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:25,480 Speaker 3: already this season, and I would like to think that 1091 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:28,640 Speaker 3: at times he is getting separation, not all the time, 1092 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:33,920 Speaker 3: but I think sometimes his separation can be deceptive. All 1093 00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:38,280 Speaker 3: that being said, I'd sign up for more opportunities for him. 1094 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:44,640 Speaker 3: You know, sixteen targets in five games, it's not a lot. 1095 00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:47,400 Speaker 3: This is also a team that has run the football 1096 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:50,920 Speaker 3: thirty plus times a game, so opportunities are going to 1097 00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:53,400 Speaker 3: be reduced, especially when you're rolling people through. But what 1098 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 3: Steve and I talked about earlier this week, due to 1099 00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:59,680 Speaker 3: the impotence of the passing game primarily, was we said, 1100 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:02,400 Speaker 3: how about we streamline the guys coming on and off 1101 00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 3: the field at the receiver position. Yeah, if you're not 1102 00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:10,040 Speaker 3: making plays, you're not fighting for the ball, you can 1103 00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 3: sit over here with the coaches and let the guys 1104 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 3: who are gonna lay it on the line play more. 1105 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 2: And I would. 1106 00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 3: Include Coleman in the play more group, along with Shakir 1107 00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:23,360 Speaker 3: when he's healthy. And then you know, I know mac 1108 00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:26,440 Speaker 3: Collins has blocking responsibilities, so he may have to be 1109 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:29,760 Speaker 3: on the field anyway in some capacity. But I'd sign 1110 00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 3: up for more opportunities for Dawson Knox too. 1111 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I'll say this too, you get a little 1112 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:37,919 Speaker 4: bit impatient when you're looking for a guy to do. 1113 00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 1: It and. 1114 00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:43,800 Speaker 4: He doesn't get enough opportunity, Like sixteen targets in five games. 1115 00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:45,360 Speaker 1: I'll agree with you. I would. I would. I'm a 1116 00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:49,920 Speaker 1: little surprised by that. But also this is a yeah, I. 1117 00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,200 Speaker 4: Think khalilsha Kiir is the number one guy in this offense, 1118 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:57,840 Speaker 4: and now he's and he's been He got out of 1119 00:58:57,880 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 4: the last half of the Baltimore game, and he didn't 1120 00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:05,400 Speaker 4: play in the Houston game even though they played. You know, well, 1121 00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 4: the passing game wasn't very good in the Houston game 1122 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 4: and they even had a chance to win it. Then 1123 00:59:10,960 --> 00:59:13,960 Speaker 4: I'm up for anybody who can get separation and get 1124 00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,600 Speaker 4: the ball and get Josh to throw them the football 1125 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 4: and catch it. There's a lot in this, I think, 1126 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:24,720 Speaker 4: and I'm not gonna listen. This is still the same 1127 00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:26,840 Speaker 4: group that was hanging thirty points. 1128 00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 1: And I get it. 1129 00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 4: They were lesser opponents, and particularly you know, when you 1130 00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:34,680 Speaker 4: look back on at Arizona, Miami, Jacksonville, they were lesser opponents, 1131 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:39,280 Speaker 4: but they're not that lesser in a lot of respects. 1132 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:46,120 Speaker 4: This offense stumbled in Baltimore. They ran into a buzzsaw 1133 00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:48,680 Speaker 4: that was a good team playing good on the road, 1134 00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:54,240 Speaker 4: night game, tough environment. Sunday afternoon, they played a little 1135 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:58,200 Speaker 4: better and even then did it to themselves. Those missed 1136 00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 4: long balls, I mean, those are you They're against air 1137 01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 4: virtually the way Hollins was running free early in the game, 1138 01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:08,280 Speaker 4: and I you know, you hit one or two of 1139 01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:09,960 Speaker 4: those and everything changes. 1140 01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 1: So it's really. 1141 01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:13,640 Speaker 4: Hard for me to start saying we got to start 1142 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:16,360 Speaker 4: changing this and changing that and changing this, because the 1143 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 4: opportunities have been there and they just haven't made them. 1144 01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:26,560 Speaker 4: Say what you want, Josh doesn't need to do more. 1145 01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 4: He needs to do the same better like he did 1146 01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:31,959 Speaker 4: in the first couple of weeks. I'll say it again, 1147 01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:34,600 Speaker 4: don't forget how easy it looked in those first couple 1148 01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:36,040 Speaker 4: of weeks when he's just getting rid of the ball 1149 01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 4: and guys were running open and then every once in 1150 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:42,520 Speaker 4: a while Nick them for a big one. It's I 1151 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:45,880 Speaker 4: don't know what has become the problem with that. Maybe 1152 01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:47,760 Speaker 4: it's a little bit of pass protection, Maybe it's the 1153 01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 4: injuries to Shakir. In this last game, not being there, 1154 01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 4: and certainly it was a good opponent and a tough 1155 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 4: environment on Sunday night in Baltimore. But let's not we 1156 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:04,040 Speaker 4: don't have to change the spots of this offense. It's 1157 01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:06,040 Speaker 4: there's a lot in there that that are still waiting 1158 01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:09,960 Speaker 4: to be you know, unfurled, no question, but they're they're 1159 01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:12,960 Speaker 4: gonna be okay. Uh, they just got to They got 1160 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:15,400 Speaker 4: to play better and execute better because there are some 1161 01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:18,440 Speaker 4: opportunities that have gone by the wayside that would change everything, 1162 01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:19,840 Speaker 4: change everything. 1163 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:23,400 Speaker 3: So I'm just I'm take it. 1164 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 4: Easy on the on the let's change all the things 1165 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:30,600 Speaker 4: that stuff around because I think they're not that far off. 1166 01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:33,560 Speaker 2: Let's get back to the phones and to Joe in 1167 01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:34,240 Speaker 2: West Seneca. 1168 01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:38,080 Speaker 15: What's up, Joe, Hey, thanks for taking my call. Guys, 1169 01:01:38,320 --> 01:01:40,600 Speaker 15: Chris do a great job in the broadcast. Steve, you're 1170 01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 15: a Hall of Famer. 1171 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:41,760 Speaker 2: Thanks. 1172 01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 15: What I want to see, and this goes back to 1173 01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:46,320 Speaker 15: training camp. I want to see guys win one on 1174 01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:48,920 Speaker 15: one battles and if they win them, then they do 1175 01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:51,720 Speaker 15: it across all phases of the game, offense, defense, and 1176 01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:56,360 Speaker 15: special teams. We'll be alright in that hostile enviirement Monday night, 1177 01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:59,160 Speaker 15: But Chris, I've been to the Metalands and I know 1178 01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 15: you and Steve have. Do you wait to the Tennessee 1179 01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:06,560 Speaker 15: game and then the home games of Miami November three 1180 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:10,880 Speaker 15: and the Kansas City Chiefs four o'clock start on November seventeenth. 1181 01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:14,680 Speaker 15: You want hostile, You're gonna get hostile at those three things. 1182 01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 15: They win these battles Monday night they go four and two, 1183 01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:20,880 Speaker 15: and then we start getting a little home cooking on 1184 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:24,800 Speaker 15: our schedule. And I think the Bills will be just fine. 1185 01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:27,200 Speaker 3: All right, Joe, save the energy for the home games. 1186 01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:29,120 Speaker 4: But hey, you're right, it is going to be hostile 1187 01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:33,680 Speaker 4: in their favor, and you're right, you gotta win some 1188 01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:35,880 Speaker 4: one on one battles. The Bills get a ton more 1189 01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,240 Speaker 4: man coverage than most teams in the league right now 1190 01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:40,439 Speaker 4: because they are challenging him, and they know they're in 1191 01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:45,080 Speaker 4: the narrative Steph Diggs. Ain't they worried about Steph Diggs anymore? 1192 01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:50,000 Speaker 4: And they have yet to believe that anybody outside Shakir 1193 01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:51,120 Speaker 4: would probably give. 1194 01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 1: Him some pause. 1195 01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:55,200 Speaker 4: But he's not out there, and they probably figure a 1196 01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:58,520 Speaker 4: cornerback or somebody, and they're, well, you saw it early. 1197 01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:01,520 Speaker 4: They're doubling triple team and Kincaid keep him off the 1198 01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:06,040 Speaker 4: score sheet. So it falls to Keon Coleman and mac 1199 01:03:06,120 --> 01:03:09,160 Speaker 4: hollins and Curtis Samuel and right now, those guys haven't 1200 01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:12,360 Speaker 4: gotten very many opportunities to carry this offense. 1201 01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 1: As bad. 1202 01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:16,720 Speaker 4: I can't believe this. This is the thing that gets 1203 01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:20,800 Speaker 4: away from me. I can't believe how poorly the offense looked, 1204 01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:25,240 Speaker 4: even statistically and even to the just to the casual observer, 1205 01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:28,760 Speaker 4: how bad it looked in Houston, and it was still 1206 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:29,640 Speaker 4: their game to win. 1207 01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:32,200 Speaker 1: It was still the Bills game to win. 1208 01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:37,880 Speaker 4: That's that is the most frustrating part about the whole deal, 1209 01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:39,960 Speaker 4: Like it always has been with Josh and this crew, 1210 01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:43,360 Speaker 4: with McDermott, they do it to themselves. It's just so 1211 01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:47,480 Speaker 4: frustrating to sit there and see him. We've seen them 1212 01:03:47,480 --> 01:03:50,840 Speaker 4: played light years better than they played last Sunday afternoon, 1213 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:54,640 Speaker 4: and they still they still feel like they let one 1214 01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:56,040 Speaker 4: slide get away from them. 1215 01:03:56,400 --> 01:03:57,400 Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. 1216 01:03:58,040 --> 01:04:00,320 Speaker 3: Let's go to Mike and Amherst next. 1217 01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 22: What's up Mike, Hi, guys, good afternoons. For me, what 1218 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:08,120 Speaker 22: I want to see in this game is I want 1219 01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:11,720 Speaker 22: to see our coordinators babbitch and Brady. I want to 1220 01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:15,200 Speaker 22: see them call, of course, a good entire game, but 1221 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:18,120 Speaker 22: most importantly, I want to see us get off to 1222 01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 22: a good start in the first half because the last 1223 01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:23,640 Speaker 22: two weeks, I don't have to tell you guys, you know, 1224 01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 22: we've come out flat. The defense hasn't looked great, the 1225 01:04:27,720 --> 01:04:30,560 Speaker 22: offense hasn't looked great. So I want to see the 1226 01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:34,600 Speaker 22: coordinators call a good first half. I think Rogers he 1227 01:04:34,680 --> 01:04:37,640 Speaker 22: looks old, he looks banged up. He was just talking 1228 01:04:37,680 --> 01:04:40,919 Speaker 22: today about his injury. So I think, if you're bad, 1229 01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 22: but you've got to get after him early. You know, 1230 01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:46,200 Speaker 22: I think he's vulnerable right now, and I think that 1231 01:04:46,320 --> 01:04:48,480 Speaker 22: will take the crowd out of it. If their offense 1232 01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:53,560 Speaker 22: starts performing poorly, it doesn't take long for that place to, 1233 01:04:54,120 --> 01:04:57,640 Speaker 22: you know, start getting frustrate with them, and then, like 1234 01:04:57,720 --> 01:05:01,680 Speaker 22: you said yesterday, Chris, we need to do some self 1235 01:05:01,720 --> 01:05:05,640 Speaker 22: scouting on offense. You know, I hope that Brady doesn't 1236 01:05:05,720 --> 01:05:09,040 Speaker 22: just call runs on first and second down, like you 1237 01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:12,160 Speaker 22: got to know what they're expecting. It working some play action. 1238 01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:13,840 Speaker 22: And I want to ask you guys a quick question. 1239 01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:17,439 Speaker 22: When I watched Andy Reid call games, he uses these 1240 01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 22: gadget guys and he has them come around and do 1241 01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 22: jet sweeps and all these creative plays. Don't you think 1242 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 22: we could find a place for that with someone like 1243 01:05:26,600 --> 01:05:28,200 Speaker 22: Curtis Samuel and the offense. 1244 01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:30,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think that's that's how they used 1245 01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:32,400 Speaker 3: him early in the season. 1246 01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:35,560 Speaker 2: And thanks for the call, Mike more, you. 1247 01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:38,480 Speaker 3: Know, more of that orbit motion, burst motion type stuff 1248 01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:40,880 Speaker 3: right before the snap. They did more of it in 1249 01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 3: the home games because it's easier to run all that 1250 01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,240 Speaker 3: pre snap window dressing when you're at home and it's quiet, 1251 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:48,560 Speaker 3: so you can all communicate and everything and everybody's on 1252 01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:50,840 Speaker 3: the same page. It's a little harder on the road, 1253 01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:53,320 Speaker 3: and we've seen it drop. There's been a drop in 1254 01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:56,840 Speaker 3: pre snap motion these last two weeks playing in hostile environments. 1255 01:05:57,200 --> 01:05:59,160 Speaker 3: We talked to Danie Rolfski about that yesterday. He said, 1256 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:00,480 Speaker 3: you got to find a way to do it anyway. 1257 01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:04,320 Speaker 3: You got to overcome that. If it means the difference 1258 01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:08,400 Speaker 3: in your offense executing and performing better, you have to 1259 01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:12,000 Speaker 3: reincorporate it into your offense no matter where you are, home, away, 1260 01:06:12,160 --> 01:06:13,600 Speaker 3: on the moon. You got to do it. 1261 01:06:13,920 --> 01:06:15,400 Speaker 4: And I'll say this too, that's one of the things 1262 01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:17,600 Speaker 4: we have noticed and talked about in the games where 1263 01:06:17,680 --> 01:06:20,040 Speaker 4: even one or two of the games the Bill's won. 1264 01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:23,000 Speaker 4: This team has started slow, and it seems like the 1265 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:25,720 Speaker 4: other team's game plan or whatever seems more on point 1266 01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:28,320 Speaker 4: than the Bills planned getting into the games. Now, the 1267 01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:32,280 Speaker 4: Bills have been stellar at fixing it, most notably at 1268 01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:35,280 Speaker 4: halftime when they come back out. They're much better defensively, 1269 01:06:35,560 --> 01:06:38,480 Speaker 4: and they've been better offensively as well, although offensively they're 1270 01:06:38,520 --> 01:06:40,240 Speaker 4: a little bit quicker to do it, it seems like. 1271 01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:43,960 Speaker 4: But I think you're right. You need a better out 1272 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 4: of the gate plan than they've shown over the last 1273 01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:49,600 Speaker 4: couple of weeks and get off to a better start. 1274 01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:54,400 Speaker 4: Some of that has been I think the game plan 1275 01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:58,320 Speaker 4: just hasn't been on the money to start these games, 1276 01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:01,360 Speaker 4: hasn't been successful. And by that, you know, you come 1277 01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:03,640 Speaker 4: out then also you look a little flat and makes 1278 01:07:03,680 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 4: you look bad because you're not having any success, and. 1279 01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:09,440 Speaker 2: Then before you know, you're down on the score right and. 1280 01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:11,320 Speaker 4: Before you know it, because their other plan on the 1281 01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:13,560 Speaker 4: other side is pretty good on that side too, they're 1282 01:07:13,680 --> 01:07:17,360 Speaker 4: up on the scoreboard for you. So I'm I'm with you. 1283 01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:19,800 Speaker 4: I would love to see him get off to a 1284 01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 4: faster start, and that means schematically as well as just 1285 01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:28,640 Speaker 4: emotionally and execution wise. Yeah, I'll say this too about 1286 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:30,520 Speaker 4: the the running on first now, it's been a big 1287 01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:32,000 Speaker 4: topic of ours during this week. 1288 01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:35,400 Speaker 1: Run it on first down if you get in five yards. 1289 01:07:35,920 --> 01:07:36,560 Speaker 3: Oh, if it's working. 1290 01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:37,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's working. 1291 01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:40,360 Speaker 3: And it was early in the Houston game right last week. 1292 01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:43,280 Speaker 3: But then it persisted into the third quarter when it 1293 01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:45,120 Speaker 3: wasn't working as well, and they had a beat on 1294 01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:47,680 Speaker 3: what you were doing, and it made their halftime adjustments 1295 01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:50,280 Speaker 3: and you kept pounding it right now, Maybe it's also 1296 01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:53,600 Speaker 3: because the passing game was so disjointed. Maybe that's all 1297 01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:55,480 Speaker 3: Joe felt he had to turn to at that point 1298 01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:55,840 Speaker 3: in time. 1299 01:07:55,880 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 1: Maybe you leaned on it once or twice too many times. 1300 01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:01,040 Speaker 3: But he did it the previous week in Baltimore as well, 1301 01:08:01,080 --> 01:08:03,160 Speaker 3: to a certain extent, not as grossly, but to a 1302 01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:03,920 Speaker 3: certain extent he did. 1303 01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 1: We'll see. 1304 01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:07,160 Speaker 4: But I'm with you, Well, no need to complain about 1305 01:08:07,160 --> 01:08:08,440 Speaker 4: the run game if it's working. 1306 01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:12,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's go to Dan on a celle here next. 1307 01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:12,919 Speaker 3: What's up Dan? 1308 01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:17,400 Speaker 23: Yeah, the afternoon fellas, let me run this one by you. 1309 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:22,640 Speaker 23: If I'm Sean McDermott, I'm calling both of the coordinators 1310 01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:27,439 Speaker 23: down to the sidelines for Monday nights. Give it a try. 1311 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:32,759 Speaker 23: They're saying, how much energy in practice sessions Brady brings. 1312 01:08:33,280 --> 01:08:36,640 Speaker 23: He's here, he's there, he's talking of all the players. 1313 01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:42,240 Speaker 23: Get that energy down on the sidelines, at least him. 1314 01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:45,479 Speaker 23: But I would get both of them guys down there, 1315 01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:49,599 Speaker 23: just like all the other teams, the successful teams, the Chiefs, 1316 01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:54,240 Speaker 23: the Ravens, all them gables started up in the box stuff, 1317 01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:59,479 Speaker 23: and it's been like written in stone ever since. Get 1318 01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:03,040 Speaker 23: them both on the sideline and let them try, or 1319 01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:06,880 Speaker 23: the least Brady, and it'll shorten the communication from the 1320 01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:10,280 Speaker 23: breast box down to the sidelines to Josh and all 1321 01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:13,719 Speaker 23: that kind of stuff. It'll up the temple of our offense. 1322 01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:17,439 Speaker 23: And uh and stick the quarterbacks coach up in a 1323 01:09:17,520 --> 01:09:20,519 Speaker 23: box rush set of eyes. Maybe he'll see something different. 1324 01:09:21,120 --> 01:09:24,000 Speaker 23: Get to open up the past patterns and you know, 1325 01:09:24,120 --> 01:09:28,400 Speaker 23: such like that. And Steve, where were the coordinators during 1326 01:09:28,400 --> 01:09:31,320 Speaker 23: the Super Bowl years? Right down on the sidelines. 1327 01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:32,000 Speaker 18: Thank you? 1328 01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:33,040 Speaker 2: All right? 1329 01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:33,320 Speaker 11: Dan? 1330 01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:37,240 Speaker 3: Just so you know, each coordinator has direct communication to 1331 01:09:37,280 --> 01:09:39,360 Speaker 3: their player on the field. It doesn't have to be 1332 01:09:39,400 --> 01:09:42,400 Speaker 3: relayed to the sideline and then in they have direct 1333 01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:46,799 Speaker 3: radio communication in the helmet to the quarterback and Babbage 1334 01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:47,639 Speaker 3: to Durell Bernard. 1335 01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:48,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1336 01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:52,320 Speaker 4: I mean, the real value would be between series, when 1337 01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:53,519 Speaker 4: you come off a sill on the sidel and you 1338 01:09:53,560 --> 01:09:55,080 Speaker 4: sit down and you look at the stuff and talk 1339 01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:58,960 Speaker 4: about it right together, right as you're sitting there. There's 1340 01:09:58,960 --> 01:10:04,599 Speaker 4: some value in that. The detriment to that is being 1341 01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:07,880 Speaker 4: down on the field. It is hard to see everybody 1342 01:10:08,479 --> 01:10:10,720 Speaker 4: on the when you're a defensive coordinator, it's hard to 1343 01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:13,719 Speaker 4: see everybody on the offense. When you're down on the field, 1344 01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:15,559 Speaker 4: you can't see what the tackles are, not the line 1345 01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:17,720 Speaker 4: of scrimmage. You can't get a bird's eye view of 1346 01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:22,160 Speaker 4: it from the sideline, and down in distance becomes harder 1347 01:10:22,240 --> 01:10:25,840 Speaker 4: to see. The situation becomes harder to take. Now, you 1348 01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:30,120 Speaker 4: can certainly put in communication that says, hey, third and two. 1349 01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:31,760 Speaker 4: As soon as the play, as soon as the guy 1350 01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:33,559 Speaker 4: gets tackled, they're blowing the whistle. The guy's going it's 1351 01:10:33,560 --> 01:10:36,640 Speaker 4: third and two, that kind of stuff, where it's you know, 1352 01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:39,920 Speaker 4: second and four. They can do that, but they haven't 1353 01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:43,800 Speaker 4: been practicing that. I'll tell you this, I'm not I 1354 01:10:44,160 --> 01:10:46,720 Speaker 4: get it. I'm not a verse to that having the 1355 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:49,559 Speaker 4: guys on the sidelines. You're right, but you know, comparing 1356 01:10:49,680 --> 01:10:51,479 Speaker 4: this day and age back to Teddy marsh a broad 1357 01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:55,240 Speaker 4: and Walt Corey of the old Buffalo Bills days, Yeah, 1358 01:10:55,240 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 4: that's yeah, that's a pipe train, and that's. 1359 01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:00,799 Speaker 3: The sole purpose, Dan, is to bring energy to the sideline. 1360 01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:02,439 Speaker 3: Then you don't have the right players playing in the 1361 01:11:02,479 --> 01:11:07,320 Speaker 3: game anyway, right, I mean, if that's your ultimate purpose. 1362 01:11:07,040 --> 01:11:09,080 Speaker 4: If if you feel like the players are looking for 1363 01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:11,519 Speaker 4: some leadership on the sideline and your defensive coordinator is 1364 01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:13,040 Speaker 4: the guy to give it to him, which Babbage may be. 1365 01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:14,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I can see that. 1366 01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:16,439 Speaker 2: Uh but. 1367 01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:20,439 Speaker 4: And particularly with the injuries they've been going through and 1368 01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:22,599 Speaker 4: that kind of thing where you've got some fresh faces 1369 01:11:22,600 --> 01:11:26,160 Speaker 4: in there, some voices that don't usually have the mic 1370 01:11:26,479 --> 01:11:30,840 Speaker 4: on the sideline. Yeah, maybe I could see that. But yeah, 1371 01:11:30,920 --> 01:11:34,280 Speaker 4: if if McDermott or any of these guys sensed this 1372 01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:37,960 Speaker 4: was a real I mean, we got to reset here. 1373 01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:41,439 Speaker 4: We're I don't feel like they think anybody's panicking over here. 1374 01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:42,920 Speaker 3: No, I don't think so either. This is so I 1375 01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:45,719 Speaker 3: don't act to the process. Get back, Yeah, work, stick 1376 01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:48,040 Speaker 3: with what you've been doing. I mean, you pull the 1377 01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:50,000 Speaker 3: guy out of the booth and down on the sidelines. 1378 01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:51,880 Speaker 3: Now the picture is completely different from what he's been 1379 01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:53,559 Speaker 3: looking at the first five weeks. I don't know if 1380 01:11:53,560 --> 01:11:55,160 Speaker 3: that's the best thing to do in a road environ 1381 01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:55,559 Speaker 3: I don't. 1382 01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:57,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm back to this thing I said a few 1383 01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:02,519 Speaker 4: like a segment or two ago. Nobody's nobody over here 1384 01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:05,800 Speaker 4: is gonna, you know, paint new stripes on this thing. 1385 01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:08,120 Speaker 4: They they are, They're where they want to be. They 1386 01:12:08,120 --> 01:12:10,439 Speaker 4: just need to do it better. I think they're very 1387 01:12:10,439 --> 01:12:12,799 Speaker 4: confident in their players. I think the coaches are confident 1388 01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:14,519 Speaker 4: in their players. I think the players are very confident 1389 01:12:14,560 --> 01:12:16,519 Speaker 4: in the coaches. I think they like each other. I 1390 01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:19,760 Speaker 4: think they're they're ready to go, uh ready to go 1391 01:12:19,800 --> 01:12:24,439 Speaker 4: to battle with each other. This is I think they 1392 01:12:24,439 --> 01:12:26,759 Speaker 4: feel like they just need to play better. And the players, 1393 01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:29,240 Speaker 4: rightfully so are sitting there going, man, I could I 1394 01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:30,920 Speaker 4: should have done this and this in this game. 1395 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:32,920 Speaker 1: I missed this opportunity. I should have done that. 1396 01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:36,400 Speaker 4: And the coaches are thinking about what they're where their 1397 01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:38,240 Speaker 4: players aren't saying listening. I think if we do this, 1398 01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:40,920 Speaker 4: we're gonna get more out of them. It's all in 1399 01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:43,920 Speaker 4: place here. I don't think there's any reason for people 1400 01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 4: to think, you know, they gotta throw the baby out 1401 01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:47,240 Speaker 4: with the bath water here. 1402 01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:47,840 Speaker 1: I mean it's. 1403 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:53,000 Speaker 4: Those first three games, while they were against lesser opponents, 1404 01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:56,320 Speaker 4: were real and there was some there's some really good 1405 01:12:56,360 --> 01:12:58,200 Speaker 4: football being played by the Buffalo. 1406 01:12:57,800 --> 01:12:58,840 Speaker 1: Bills in those games. 1407 01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:01,800 Speaker 4: I think they think that's still and I think it 1408 01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:04,280 Speaker 4: is still in there to be found, and they'll bring 1409 01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:08,160 Speaker 4: it out. Like I said, though, this is gonna be 1410 01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:12,519 Speaker 4: a really tough game on Monday night, really tough. 1411 01:13:13,479 --> 01:13:18,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, we are gonna stay and step aside here, gotta 1412 01:13:18,479 --> 01:13:20,519 Speaker 3: take a break. We'll come back, get to more of 1413 01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:23,840 Speaker 3: your phone calls and hopefully get some post practice commentary 1414 01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:25,760 Speaker 3: from the players as well before we're done for the 1415 01:13:25,800 --> 01:13:26,920 Speaker 3: day here on One Bill's Live. 1416 01:13:26,960 --> 01:13:38,559 Speaker 2: Stay with us. 1417 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:43,080 Speaker 3: All right, welcome back to One Bill's Live.

But you know, 1425 01:14:03,640 --> 01:14:05,600 Speaker 24: it's how the game goes sometimes. We're gonna continue to 1426 01:14:05,640 --> 01:14:08,240 Speaker 24: keep working and I gotta find ways to to be 1427 01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:11,520 Speaker 24: better for this team. 1428 01:14:12,080 --> 01:14:14,800 Speaker 25: Her questions about then you look and see what we're 1429 01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:16,280 Speaker 25: already on whatever. 1430 01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:17,479 Speaker 1: That again, that game was. 1431 01:14:19,080 --> 01:14:20,720 Speaker 10: How what gives you confidence in. 1432 01:14:20,800 --> 01:14:23,559 Speaker 25: Knowing that this group had come together and perform at 1433 01:14:23,560 --> 01:14:26,440 Speaker 25: the level it was the first three weeks as opposed. 1434 01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:27,400 Speaker 8: To how things have been going. 1435 01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:31,760 Speaker 24: Past, because we've shown it before in the first couple 1436 01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:34,639 Speaker 24: of weeks and you know, had a great training camp, 1437 01:14:34,720 --> 01:14:36,120 Speaker 24: and the group of guys that we have in this 1438 01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:41,439 Speaker 24: in this room are special. They work hard, you know, 1439 01:14:41,479 --> 01:14:43,680 Speaker 24: and they're they're smart football players. And I got I 1440 01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:45,080 Speaker 24: got no doubt and I got a lot of trust 1441 01:14:45,120 --> 01:14:47,400 Speaker 24: in these guys. So we're just gonna keep our head 1442 01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:49,400 Speaker 24: down and focus on the process more than the results. 1443 01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:51,360 Speaker 24: I know the result hasn't been great last couple of weeks, 1444 01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:54,280 Speaker 24: but you know, it's the it's the name of the game. 1445 01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:56,639 Speaker 24: That's why we played. Go out there and and test 1446 01:14:56,680 --> 01:14:58,600 Speaker 24: our strengths against their strengths and figure out what our 1447 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:02,120 Speaker 24: weakness is on and and uh continue to work on those. 1448 01:15:02,160 --> 01:15:06,760 Speaker 24: So that's what we're going to continue to do very 1449 01:15:06,760 --> 01:15:11,719 Speaker 24: important you know. It's you know, we talk about everyone eats, 1450 01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:14,439 Speaker 24: and it's fine and dandy when everybody is, but sometimes 1451 01:15:14,479 --> 01:15:16,920 Speaker 24: there's there's people that are are left out and you 1452 01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:18,960 Speaker 24: want to continue to incorporate them in your offense. And 1453 01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:20,519 Speaker 24: he's been one guy that we got to get going 1454 01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:23,200 Speaker 24: and we know that, Joe knows that. I think the 1455 01:15:23,240 --> 01:15:25,559 Speaker 24: whole team knows that, and we're better when ad eight 1456 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:30,200 Speaker 24: is is playing well. And again, just just find ways 1457 01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:32,080 Speaker 24: to get guys the ball and open space and and 1458 01:15:32,400 --> 01:15:33,040 Speaker 24: starts with. 1459 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:37,400 Speaker 12: Me, how do you get like Dawson going and not 1460 01:15:37,640 --> 01:15:40,720 Speaker 12: like almost force it, like overcorrect. 1461 01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:40,439 Speaker 11: If you will. 1462 01:15:41,720 --> 01:15:45,280 Speaker 24: Yeah, I mean I think that's uh, that's a that's 1463 01:15:45,280 --> 01:15:48,120 Speaker 24: a good question. But maybe getting back to our base 1464 01:15:48,160 --> 01:15:52,200 Speaker 24: stuff that we ran in training camp and and just 1465 01:15:52,280 --> 01:15:54,400 Speaker 24: trusting what we call and not trying to be so 1466 01:15:54,520 --> 01:15:58,040 Speaker 24: much in the perfect position and just trusting what our 1467 01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:00,800 Speaker 24: guys can do. And that's kind of as simple as 1468 01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:03,160 Speaker 24: we want to want to make it. And you know, 1469 01:16:03,360 --> 01:16:04,360 Speaker 24: we had a lot of guys with a lot of 1470 01:16:04,400 --> 01:16:06,200 Speaker 24: different skill sets on this team, and we want to 1471 01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:09,360 Speaker 24: utilize everybody's talents. And he's definitely a talented player that 1472 01:16:09,360 --> 01:16:10,520 Speaker 24: we gotta utilize. 1473 01:16:10,360 --> 01:16:11,920 Speaker 9: To get back to the Bay stuff. 1474 01:16:12,880 --> 01:16:14,679 Speaker 3: How much does it help that you have a long 1475 01:16:14,800 --> 01:16:15,679 Speaker 3: history with Dawson? 1476 01:16:16,240 --> 01:16:16,920 Speaker 10: It helps a lot. 1477 01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:18,479 Speaker 24: It helps a lot.

Because you've made some transitions 1547 01:19:40,160 --> 01:19:43,040 Speaker 3: here already. You've gone from you know, obviously rookie mini 1548 01:19:43,080 --> 01:19:46,640 Speaker 3: caamp to OTAs to mini camp to training camp, preseason 1549 01:19:46,680 --> 01:19:49,559 Speaker 3: and now regular season. Where do you kind of feel 1550 01:19:50,320 --> 01:19:54,519 Speaker 3: you've made like a big jump through any of those steps. 1551 01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:55,920 Speaker 3: I guess in your rookie year. 1552 01:19:56,439 --> 01:19:58,280 Speaker 10: I really think it's just kind of like the discipline 1553 01:19:58,280 --> 01:19:58,800 Speaker 10: to the game. 1554 01:19:58,880 --> 01:19:59,040 Speaker 1: You know. 1555 01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:01,559 Speaker 26: I think there's a lot of adversity of people go through, 1556 01:20:01,640 --> 01:20:04,080 Speaker 26: especially coming to the NFL because it's crazy, you know, 1557 01:20:04,400 --> 01:20:06,720 Speaker 26: everybody have a lot going on. But I think the 1558 01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:09,559 Speaker 26: discipline with my eyes and understanding kind of plays before 1559 01:20:09,560 --> 01:20:11,719 Speaker 26: they come is a big thing that kind of called along, 1560 01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:14,640 Speaker 26: especially because the speed of the game is it is 1561 01:20:14,960 --> 01:20:16,960 Speaker 26: rarely different, you know. So I think I called on 1562 01:20:17,160 --> 01:20:18,920 Speaker 26: that kind of soon, and then you know, training camp 1563 01:20:19,200 --> 01:20:20,680 Speaker 26: I was able to, you know, just work on my 1564 01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:22,640 Speaker 26: get off and keep That's that's the biggest thing in 1565 01:20:22,640 --> 01:20:23,320 Speaker 26: that D line room. 1566 01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:24,639 Speaker 10: Get off, get off, get off. 1567 01:20:24,640 --> 01:20:26,799 Speaker 26: So you know when we got vn Aj and Greg 1568 01:20:27,080 --> 01:20:28,200 Speaker 26: and that's just something they preached. 1569 01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:29,720 Speaker 10: So that was something I was able to, you know, 1570 01:20:29,880 --> 01:20:30,719 Speaker 10: kind of get better at. 1571 01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:32,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's one of the things when you get into 1572 01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:34,080 Speaker 4: the room you kind of watch the old guy like 1573 01:20:34,200 --> 01:20:37,040 Speaker 4: Vaughn is great, I mean, and they teach you how 1574 01:20:37,080 --> 01:20:39,280 Speaker 4: to watch film, what you're looking for and some of 1575 01:20:39,320 --> 01:20:41,960 Speaker 4: the important stuff that as When I was young, I 1576 01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:45,040 Speaker 4: was like, what you look at that? And how do 1577 01:20:45,080 --> 01:20:47,400 Speaker 4: you know a lot of questions, how do you know that? 1578 01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:49,320 Speaker 1: And that kind of thing. 1579 01:20:49,439 --> 01:20:52,200 Speaker 26: Yeah, Now it's it's something you feel, especially once you're 1580 01:20:52,240 --> 01:20:54,360 Speaker 26: on the field and you get kind of a heads 1581 01:20:54,400 --> 01:20:57,360 Speaker 26: up of things. You realize that, hey, this this kind 1582 01:20:57,360 --> 01:20:59,280 Speaker 26: of thing is always showing up. So that's something you 1583 01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:00,960 Speaker 26: kind of key into. We got the week got there 1584 01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:04,439 Speaker 26: and eventually guys like Vaughn who's been here for years, 1585 01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:07,840 Speaker 26: he's he is nothing. He is something that he pays 1586 01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:10,439 Speaker 26: attention to and easily dial into once you kind of 1587 01:21:10,479 --> 01:21:11,599 Speaker 26: understand the groove of the game. 1588 01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:13,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, pass rush plan. 1589 01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:15,880 Speaker 3: I mean, I would imagine a lot of games at 1590 01:21:15,880 --> 01:21:19,559 Speaker 3: Troy you were just physically more gifted than the guy 1591 01:21:19,600 --> 01:21:21,559 Speaker 3: you were going against. In a given week and you 1592 01:21:21,680 --> 01:21:24,639 Speaker 3: just turn on the physical ability and the plays over 1593 01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:26,760 Speaker 3: and you got the quarterback on the ground. It's a 1594 01:21:26,800 --> 01:21:30,160 Speaker 3: little different here. So how have you kind of worked 1595 01:21:30,280 --> 01:21:34,599 Speaker 3: to craft your pass rush plan each week and have 1596 01:21:34,680 --> 01:21:37,639 Speaker 3: a repertoire because I think you've probably learned pretty fast. 1597 01:21:37,720 --> 01:21:38,920 Speaker 3: Counter moves are huge in this. 1598 01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:41,680 Speaker 26: I think go back to the fundamentals that you have 1599 01:21:41,760 --> 01:21:43,600 Speaker 26: to have in this game, and it all starts with 1600 01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:44,920 Speaker 26: a get off. If you don't have to get off 1601 01:21:44,920 --> 01:21:46,360 Speaker 26: the rust this kind of day, you know you got 1602 01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:49,080 Speaker 26: tackles are very athletic nowadays. We got one of our team, 1603 01:21:49,120 --> 01:21:51,000 Speaker 26: Dion Dawkins. If you don't get a good good off, 1604 01:21:51,040 --> 01:21:52,960 Speaker 26: you might as well just go and stop. You know so, 1605 01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:55,080 Speaker 26: you know you plan, so you have to have a 1606 01:21:55,120 --> 01:21:57,760 Speaker 26: plan ahead of time. You know what of what you 1607 01:21:57,800 --> 01:22:00,519 Speaker 26: can actually have an idea they do? You know what 1608 01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:01,040 Speaker 26: what do they do? 1609 01:22:01,080 --> 01:22:01,240 Speaker 1: Well? 1610 01:22:01,280 --> 01:22:03,120 Speaker 10: Do they shoot? Their hands are every passive? 1611 01:22:03,479 --> 01:22:05,320 Speaker 26: So you have to have a counter move, like you said, 1612 01:22:05,360 --> 01:22:07,519 Speaker 26: to everything, and you know, I think I think the 1613 01:22:07,560 --> 01:22:09,080 Speaker 26: big thing is to start with you get off and 1614 01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:11,160 Speaker 26: the pass reds playing has to be there before the 1615 01:22:11,160 --> 01:22:13,000 Speaker 26: ball even snapped. It has to be something as you 1616 01:22:13,040 --> 01:22:15,439 Speaker 26: think about way before. That's that's that's just football one 1617 01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:17,439 Speaker 26: on one. You can't go in there blindly because that's 1618 01:22:17,560 --> 01:22:19,200 Speaker 26: it'll kind of kind of you leave out there to drive. 1619 01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:21,559 Speaker 4: One of the things that's been noticeable is both on 1620 01:22:21,760 --> 01:22:24,160 Speaker 4: both sides the ball sometimes in a couple of games 1621 01:22:24,160 --> 01:22:27,200 Speaker 4: this year, both sides the ball offense and deepense. You 1622 01:22:27,200 --> 01:22:29,280 Speaker 4: guys got off kind of slow start, they kind of 1623 01:22:29,320 --> 01:22:31,360 Speaker 4: nicked you and you know, kind of gashed you're early 1624 01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:33,720 Speaker 4: on in some of these games, and then later on 1625 01:22:33,720 --> 01:22:35,920 Speaker 4: the game, man, you tied it up and get buttoned up. 1626 01:22:35,920 --> 01:22:39,719 Speaker 4: Tell us about that that adjustment process that Bob Babbage 1627 01:22:39,720 --> 01:22:41,240 Speaker 4: and his coaching staff has been able to do. 1628 01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:44,120 Speaker 26: Under staying those are pro being pros at its finest. 1629 01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:46,240 Speaker 26: That's that's the biggest thing I see with those guys, 1630 01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:48,240 Speaker 26: Like like the way they come into the locker room 1631 01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:51,200 Speaker 26: after either being down or something then go our way. 1632 01:22:51,560 --> 01:22:54,439 Speaker 26: Those guys are are the most precise people I ever 1633 01:22:54,479 --> 01:22:57,400 Speaker 26: met in my life. They are head on, head straightforward. 1634 01:22:57,439 --> 01:22:59,479 Speaker 26: They're not looking back at just what happened. Whatever happened 1635 01:22:59,560 --> 01:23:01,840 Speaker 26: was the fluke will be good, good mindset, we'll have 1636 01:23:01,880 --> 01:23:03,880 Speaker 26: it on.

We'll take 1760 01:27:27,439 --> 01:27:29,839 Speaker 3: a break and close things up next here. Stay tuned, 1761 01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:43,400 Speaker 3: all right. Some final thoughts here courtesy of the tweet 1762 01:27:43,439 --> 01:27:45,599 Speaker 3: sheet brought to you by Cory and Moving Systems, official 1763 01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:48,040 Speaker 3: equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills. Aside from a win, 1764 01:27:48,160 --> 01:27:50,280 Speaker 3: what must you see from the Bills on Monday Night 1765 01:27:50,320 --> 01:27:53,360 Speaker 3: against the Jets? Steve says, I want to see Samuel's 1766 01:27:53,400 --> 01:27:56,719 Speaker 3: speed used in routes down the field instead of behind 1767 01:27:56,720 --> 01:27:58,519 Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage. If Shakira is a no go, 1768 01:27:58,600 --> 01:28:00,800 Speaker 3: I would like Hammler to be elevated and also use 1769 01:28:00,880 --> 01:28:03,320 Speaker 3: his speed down the field to spread the defense and 1770 01:28:03,360 --> 01:28:07,080 Speaker 3: open up the intermediate passing game. Nick says offensive variety 1771 01:28:07,160 --> 01:28:11,040 Speaker 3: leading to offensive confidence. We played Scared of Baltimore when 1772 01:28:11,040 --> 01:28:12,680 Speaker 3: we should have taken it right to him, hit him 1773 01:28:12,680 --> 01:28:15,080 Speaker 3: in the mouth. We played Scared of Houston when we 1774 01:28:15,080 --> 01:28:16,640 Speaker 3: should have taken it right to him, hit him in 1775 01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:19,439 Speaker 3: the mouth. Defenses that give up chunk run suddenly get 1776 01:28:19,479 --> 01:28:21,439 Speaker 3: back on their heels. We need to get them on 1777 01:28:21,479 --> 01:28:24,120 Speaker 3: their heels early and use the run to keep them 1778 01:28:24,160 --> 01:28:27,200 Speaker 3: there for sixty minutes. And then Andrews says, I would 1779 01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:30,000 Speaker 3: like to see our offensive line be better in pass 1780 01:28:30,040 --> 01:28:32,679 Speaker 3: protection and see less of Josh Allen playing hero ball. 1781 01:28:32,680 --> 01:28:34,280 Speaker 3: He did way too much of that last week, and 1782 01:28:34,320 --> 01:28:36,360 Speaker 3: it showed because of how bad our old line was. 1783 01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:39,840 Speaker 3: And then Beth says, consistent passing game. I really don't 1784 01:28:39,880 --> 01:28:43,080 Speaker 3: care who catches the ball, just catch it. 1785 01:28:44,640 --> 01:28:46,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, they were I'll say this though. 1786 01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:49,960 Speaker 4: You saw some guys last week trying to catch the 1787 01:28:49,960 --> 01:28:52,960 Speaker 4: ball with somebody right on their back. They not much 1788 01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:56,880 Speaker 4: separation there. The defenders were getting past his defense rather 1789 01:28:56,920 --> 01:29:00,519 Speaker 4: than receptions for the receiver. So I'm you can help 1790 01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:06,440 Speaker 4: yourself out by coming back to the football, accentuating, exploding 1791 01:29:06,439 --> 01:29:08,439 Speaker 4: out of breaks, all of that stuff. 1792 01:29:08,479 --> 01:29:10,840 Speaker 1: So yeah, they can all help. 1793 01:29:10,920 --> 01:29:13,000 Speaker 4: You can help yourself as a wide receiver, and these 1794 01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:14,040 Speaker 4: guys need to keep doing that. 1795 01:29:14,280 --> 01:29:16,479 Speaker 3: I'd like to see Josh take off and use the 1796 01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:18,160 Speaker 3: green grass in front of him when he has it. 1797 01:29:19,080 --> 01:29:21,400 Speaker 3: He gets that against the Jets sometimes got to take 1798 01:29:21,439 --> 01:29:24,120 Speaker 3: advantage of it. Got a belated birthday wish to pass 1799 01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:27,760 Speaker 3: along eighty five years young and a daily viewer of 1800 01:29:27,800 --> 01:29:31,639 Speaker 3: one Bill's Live Luise La Party.
