22
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: the grocery store. Everybody's at the grocers. I had to

23
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: go after work yesterday. My wife went shopping at one location.

24
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: She forgot three things, so I had to get those

25
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: three things. On the way home from work. I go

26
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: to the local grocery store. It's like five thirty pm yesterday.

27
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, and the lot is like more full

28
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 1: than usual. I'm like, okay, this isn't unusual. You know,

29
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: more people, you know, stocking up before the holiday weekend.

30
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: I totally get it. So I'm parking a little further

31
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 1: away than I normally do make the walk going to

32
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: the store. I need three things. Okay, I need bleach

33
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: because my daughter's trying to fix a shirt she ruined.

34
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: I need chili sauce, and I need minced garlic you

35
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 1: know in the jar that they sell it are the

36
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: only three things I need. I go in the store,

37
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: and I had not seen this in this particular location before.

38
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: So you know those stanch in polls that they have

39
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: at museums or at the security line for the airport.

40
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: They've got those set up in the front by the registers.

41
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, what is this. They're like herding people into

42
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: certain lines. They had an express lane across the width

43
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: of the store and then for the long like if

44
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: you have multiple more than twenty items with a cart,

45
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 1: you're in another line. So I get, okay, that makes sense.

46
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: The problem is the twenty items are more line, Steve.

47
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: I know it went from behind the registers all the

48
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: way to the last aisle. Now, the last aisle of

49
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: the store has the bleach that I'm looking for, So

50
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, holy crow, there's people in all the way

51
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: back there. So I go to the end. I hang

52
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: a right down the detergent in bleach aisle, last aisle

53
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: in the store. Oh yeah, there's a row of people

54
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: down that aisle to the back of the store where

55
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: the dairys. So I hang a right. There's the line

56
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: keeps going. So then I get to the back of

57
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: that aisle and I hang a right because I'm headed

58
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: for the men's garla. Now there's another The line keeps

59
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,839
Speaker 1: going across the back of the store all the way

60
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: into produce. The checkout line goes three sides. Of the

61
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: three or four sides of the store is the line,

62
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: And there was this one, so fast. Well, hold on.

63
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 1: So there's this one old timer in there and he's

64
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: just still getting his groceries. He's still shopping, right, and

65
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: he's got about fifteen things in his cart. And he

Speaker 1: looks up and he goes, what are you people lining

67
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 1: up for? And they're like, oh, this is the checkout line.

68
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: He goes get out of here, just like that, forget it.

69
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 1: He takes his cart, he shoves it, just drops it,

70
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 1: abandons cart aboard mission. He is out of there, going home,

71
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: and you know what, So I go, so I get

74
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: the chili sauce. That's the last thing I need. I

75
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: go down the aisle. I'm looking, and I know I'm

76
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: in the right place. The cut the shelf is bare.

77
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: You can't get the chili, the branded chili sauce that

78

00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: thing and just leave. I followed suit with the old timer. Yeah,

85
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: I'm just like I put the bleach down, put the

86
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 1: min's garlic back because I was still in the aisle,

87
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,200

88
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,800

00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: dear god, I am leaving. Who's got time for that?

93
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. I was out yesterday. We've got a hollow.

94
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,120

95
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 1: a you know, by a gift because everybody exchanges. Right.

96
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: So I'm driving just from the stadium right around here

97
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: in op just trying to get it right quick before

98
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 1: you go home. Right, dude, it is game day traffic

99
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,680

101
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: single store. I mean, every car in Western New York

102
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: is out on the street at every light, every single light.

103
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: I think it's because they know they're not going to

104
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: be out anywhere from basically noon on Friday. It was

105
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: Game Monday. Every single stop light in western New York

106
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: had had game day traffic. Yeah, it was unbelievable. But

107
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: you know, you got the holidays, you got a Bills game,

108
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,919

Speaker 1: wasn't snow now it is snow. Yeah, it's flash freeze.

111
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 1: It's what was the other thing you said, the tornado bomb?

112
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: Bomb cyclone is the phrase of bomb cyclone eleven foot

113
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: storm surge of the lake eleven feet. Yeah, the wind

114
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: is so bad that it literally pushes all the water

115
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: in Lake Erie to the Buffalo end of the lake.

116
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: It's it's almost like tilting a bathtub. Like it's like, yeah,

117
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: tilt in a bathtub to one end. We're at the

118
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 1: wrong end, is right. Yeah? Yeah, So it's nuts. Now.

119
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: I looked up Steve first, let's start here. Okay, National

120
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: Weather Service in Chicago. I looked at that too. Nine

121
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 1: fifteen this morning, which is ten fifteen our time, The

122
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: Arctic front is marching across northern Illinois this morning. Wind

123
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: chills are beginning to rapidly drop behind the frontal passage

124
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: as westerly winds increase. So they have a graphic here

125
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: windshill by this afternoon in Chicago this afternoon minus fifteen

126
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: to minus twenty five tonight minus thirty to minus forty two. Hello.

127
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 1: So then just in the last hour noon our time

128
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: eleven Central time, light snow falling across northern Illinois with

129
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: a heavier band approaching. This band tracks east this afternoon,

130
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: bringing snow and reduced visibilities. Temps are also plummeting into

131
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: the single digits, with wind chills below zero, rapid deterioration

132
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: of road conditions, flash freeze and bridges on bridges and overpasses.

133
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,719
Speaker 1: Here's the problem, Steve, And I'm sure you know this.

134
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 1: When it gets this cold, salt doesn't work. You get

135
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: below ten degrees, salt is no longer effective in melting

136
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 1: ice and snow when the air temperatures below ten. Yeah,

137
00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: it does not work anymore. So I don't know who cares.

138
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: I'm not a chemist. All I know is that's the case.

139
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 1: So once you get into these temps, salt doesn't work.

140
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 1: So the roads get worse, right, I mean, and if

141
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: it's snowing hard. The plows can only do so much

142
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: to keep the roads clear and passable, and then if

143
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: you've got blizzard conditions on top of that, just just

144
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,839
Speaker 1: don't go anywhere. So so you're so you travel with

145
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: the team. You guys are gonna go. They're gonna sometime

146
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: lying out tonight afternoon. You still do. So when you

147
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: get in, you're gonna be in Chicago and you're gonna

148
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 1: be in that in your hotel. That's gross. I'm so

149
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 1: glad I'm way down the pecking order in the organization.

150
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: I don't have to travel anymore. Yeah, well, we'll see

151
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 1: they had. If I actually had a real job and

152
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: they made me work and I had to go on

153
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: the road with you guys, that would just ruin the holiday.

154
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,319
Speaker 1: I hope you guys get back. Yeah, I know I

155
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:58,679
Speaker 1: do too. That is a concern. Um. Yeah, man, man,

156
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. Yeah, we'll see cross and fingers

157
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: and toes for us. I'll say this though an art

158
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: Twitter poll reflects this. It is an enormous confluence of events.

159
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 1: That is, you know, makes for who knew that on

160
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: a year when Christmas falls on a weekend and the

161
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: Bills play a game and there's this generational storm happening.

162
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: It's pretty unbelievable. Yeah, you kind of. And it's also

163
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: kind of cool too, And I say cool. But we

164
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 1: had that event just a month ago or five weeks

165
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,839
Speaker 1: ago for the Cleveland game here. That kind of gave

166
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 1: us a kind of a ramp up to it. You know,

167
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: where we had the sixty inches of snow in the

168
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: South and in Buffalo we had they got a ton

169
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: of two. Kind of gives you a kind of a

170
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: warm up for what you gotta do to get ready. Right. Yeah.

171
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: As for the weather here in Buffalo, seventy mile hour guests.

172
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,959
Speaker 1: A blizzard warning is for thirty five plus mile per

173
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: hour wins and one quarter or lower visibility from blowing snow.

174
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 1: Oh um. They expect blizzard conditions for approximately a thirty

175
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 1: hours span, with peak winds around seventy miles per hour.

176
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: When I get home before I leave tonight, I gotta

177
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: I gotta tie down my grill, same thing I got,

178
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: I gotta tie it down because that thing's gonna topple.

179
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: I gotta do things. I'm gonna know where it is.

180
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 1: I gotta do things, Yeah, yeah, or all or all something. Yeah, damn,

181
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: damage is inevitable. But if I can hold it to

182
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: my landscaping, not my roof, right, you know, yeah, it's yeah,

183
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 1: Batman down. Literally I lost off. I lost a pine tree.

184
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: That was a good it was. It was bigger than way,

185
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: but you couldn't put your arms around, right, it was

186
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: way to your finger tips. Last last, they have shallow

187
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 1: ks to be in. Well it snapped off. Oh yeah,

188
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 1: like snapped in half. Well, it snapped this far up

189
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 1: all it was snapped at the ground sort of but

190
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: like you know, splintered. I'm still working on it. Wow.

191
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: So that was That was in a windstorm. That was

192
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: last spring, and I still got this thing. It fell

193
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: into the woods. So I really don't care, you know. Yeah,

194
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: you gotta be Yeah, those are coming down, there's gonna be.

195
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: The power outage is what scares you for this. Yeah.

196
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: And and that's a real thing. And it's ironic that

197
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: you mentioned that because the surprise October storm in two

198
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: thousand and six, the Bills had an away game, right,

199
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 1: and yeah it was we went to Detroit, not as

200
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: a relocated game. It was Bills at Detroit and O

201
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:49,440
Speaker 1: six and we didn't have power for like three days.

202
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: Some people didn't have power for a week. Yeah, because

203
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: it is when I purchased a standbye, it was because

204
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: it was October. It was because it was October and

205
00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 1: the leaves were still on the trees, and it was

206
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 1: the first snow of the of the season, right, and

207
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 1: plus we all know the first snow of the season

208
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: is always heavy and wet. Plus you put the leaves

209
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 1: on the trees and it looked like, you know, you

210
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,680
Speaker 1: had a bunch of sticks growing out there. All the

211
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: trees lost their limbs, the power lines were down. Everything

212
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 1: that was a that was a complete catastrophe. Yeah, that's this.

213
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: I I just pretty early on into winter here. This

214
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: one's already been a doozy. Well, getting a double storm,

215
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: like I mean, today's the first full day of winter.

216
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: Think about that. I hadn't thought about that. Yeah, we

217
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: haven't even started. What a bringer of sunshine? You are

218
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 1: way to get it this way, we're just getting started.

219
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: Look at it this way. The days are getting longer. Yeah,

220
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 1: that's true. See that. Let me say something that does

221
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: that does spin it better for me. I will say that.

222
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: I will say that we we do have to get

223
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: to the bills here obviously with their game coming up.

224
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: We'll get to our Twitter topic of the day in

225
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 1: just a second, but just so you're up to speed

226
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:13,959
Speaker 1: Bill's center. Mitch Morse and Boogie Basham, the second year

227
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: pass rusher, were ruled out this morning by head coach

228
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott in his radio appearance on w GR, as

229
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: he does every Friday. So those two guys declared out

230
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: for Saturday's game against the Bears. The guys who are

231
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: somewhat up in the air, Jordan Poyer, Ryan Bates, Jordan Phillips,

232
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: they have not yet been ruled out, so we'll see

233
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: how practice goes today. A final determination will be made

234
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: this afternoon and we'll see where things stand. As we mentioned,

235
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: they were getting another practice in today, and then now

236
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: that they are traveling a day earlier, they have to

237
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 1: you know, they usually do a walkthrough on a Saturday

238
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: for a Sunday game. That was the plan for a Friday.

239
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: Usually when they're traveling nor time, they'll do their Friday

240
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 1: walk through in the morning and then get ready to travel,

241
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: you know, get to their destination, play the game the

242
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: next day. Traveling earlier, they have to find a location

243
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: to do a walkthrough tomorrow. Coach McDermott was saying he

244
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: was hoping they could do that outdoors, but I don't

245
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: see that happening. Not with wind chills. I'm twenty to

246
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: thirty below zero. They're probably gonna end up doing it

247
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: in a ballroom in the hotel. I'm yeah, I'm if

248
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 1: I'm going outdoors, it's going from the door to my

249
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 1: car that's already running. Yeah, it is, absolutely and we've

250
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: been talking about it all way. It's it's dangerous cold

251
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: in Chicago. It's like twenty five thirty five below at

252
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 1: its worst during this storm. That's going to happen, and

253
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: they're not they're not joking. It's it's bad. The general

254
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: hope is that the worst of it blows through on

255
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: Friday and it's not as severe on Saturday for the game.

256
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: It's still not going to be great, but I don't

257
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 1: know if it'll be thirty five below. Hopefully it'll be

258
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 1: a little less than that, because the original forecast at

259
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: it about ten below with the wind chill, which is

260
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: certainly not great either, but it's better than what they're

261
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 1: experiencing right now. So we'll try to keep you abreast

262
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: of that. Not only for the conditions in Chicago, but

263
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 1: here for that matter, as it's going to be getting

264
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: dicey starting tomorrow here in Western New York around the NFL.

265
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: Steve brought to you by Kalida Health, the official healthcare

266
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: system in the NFL, or the Buffalo Bill. Sorry, and

267
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: there are some developments. Lamar Jackson is not going to

268
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: play again this week, so it is Snoop Huntley for

269
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: the Ravens. Ravens are playing the Falcons Saturday, and head

270
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: coach John Harbaugh basically confirmed no Lamar Jackson for a

271
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: third straight game. So's I mean, that's a team that's

272
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: trying to win right now. They fell behind the Cincinnati

273
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: Bengals for the lead in the AFC North. They need

274
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: every win they can get. They're gonna be relying on

275
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 1: some Puntley to help them get it against the Falcons

276
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: team that's you know, they're all that great and I

277
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: believe Desmond Ritter, their rookie quarterback, is starting. They beat

278
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: they beat on my Steelers. They beat the Steelers with Huntley,

279
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,360
Speaker 1: then they lost to the Browns. So they're not totally

280
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,439
Speaker 1: bereft of talent, but they're only scoring. But they're a

281
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,199
Speaker 1: game back. They still have a head to head with

282
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: Cincinnati left on their schedule, but they've fallen out of

283
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 1: that AFC North lead and they've got the Chargers hot

284
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: on their heels at eight and six for the wild

285
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 1: card race. Washington defensive and Chase Young, who has been

286
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 1: out all season long coming off an ACL injury from

287
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: late last season, is off. The injury report was a

288
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: full go in practice and he is going to play

289
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: Saturday against San Francisco, according to head coach Ron Rivera.

290
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 1: So another guy with a long rehabilitation before returning, much

291
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: like tradevious White. Chase Young, former number two pick in

292
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 1: the draft a couple of years ago, is going to

293
00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: be back on the field for the Commanders on day

294
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: Tonight's game between the Jaguars and the Jets. There's some

295
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: guys that are up in the air there, Quinn and

296
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: Williams kind of a game time decision trying to come

297
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 1: off the calf injury. Zach Wilson is going to start.

298
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: Mike White's still not ready with multiple fractures in his

299
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 1: ribs stemming from the Bills game in Week fourteen. Trevor Lawrence,

300
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,399
Speaker 1: though Steve popped up as questionable for that game against

301
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: the Jets. He's got a toe injury, so I guess

302
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: mobility is a little bit of an issue for him.

303
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 1: He was questionable, but Jeremy Fowler from ESPN is reporting

304
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: that Trevor Lawrence will play tonight against the Jets. And

305
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 1: obviously those two teams fighting for their playoff lives in

306
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 1: the AFC, Jets at seven and seven, Jaguars at six

307
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: and eight. Jets coming in stumbling a little bit Jacksonville

308
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: on the surge. Yes, indeed, supposed to be a wet, sloppy,

309
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:56,880
Speaker 1: windy mess at MetLife Stadium tonight, so that'll be interesting

310
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 1: to witness twenty five mile per hour wins stained and

311
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: I don't have to tell you that it can get

312
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 1: windy out there in the middle ends. So yeah, So

313
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 1: that's the situation for tonight's game. And we would be

314
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 1: remiss if we did not mention Pro Bowl rosters came

315
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: out last night. The Bills have four of their players

316
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: named to the Pro Bowl. Josh Allen, Stefon Diggs, Mitch Morse,

317
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer all named starters for the Pro Bowl. So

318
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 1: congrats to them. We have alternates as well. Dion Dawkins

319
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 1: Dawson Knox. You guys put that back up again. Roger Staffold, Yeah,

320
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 1: Roger Staffold and Tyler Bass's second alternate, Tremaine Edmunds. Tremaine

321
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: Edmunds of course. So Milano. I mean, we've been talking

322
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: about Milano and Edmonds playing so well this year, and

323
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: they have been. Milano has been great. Now he's last game,

324
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: you could tell he was feeling the injury that he's

325
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: been dealing with. But man, oh man, that guy has

326
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:02,399
Speaker 1: been stellar this year. So has Edmonds. And the Bills.

327
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:07,120
Speaker 1: You know, the Bills. They've got some guys that really

328
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: deserve some recognition. They really do. It seems like the

329
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl always passes them by. Well, yes, and there

330
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,120
Speaker 1: are You know what I found interesting for the safety position.

331
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: They have for the AFC two strong safety selections, but

332
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 1: they only have one free safety selection. I didn't I

333
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 1: didn't understand that one like three safeties total, they picked

334
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: two strong and one free. I mean, I realized in

335
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: most yet most defenses these days, they're interchangeable, But I

336
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 1: don't know, like I guess in other years there have

337
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: been two free safeties and one strong. But either way,

338
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 1: congrats to all the guys that got the recognition. I'm

339
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 1: really happy for Mitch Morse. Yeah, that's he's You're right,

340
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 1: I mean, he's been a stalwart for this offensive line

341
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,360
Speaker 1: since he got here. There's twenty those of you her

342
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: wondering how that works. Where you see some players get

343
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: just run away with the fan vote, like two A

344
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 1: tonga Iloa. Two A ran off with the fan vote.

345
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 1: He got more votes, more votes than anyone not just

346
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: at his position, than anyone else in football. But he

347
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,200
Speaker 1: didn't make the Pro Bowl because the fan vote counts

348
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 1: that there's three votes for every position. The fan vote

349
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 1: counts as one. Coaches in the NFL coaching staffs count

350
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,880
Speaker 1: as one, which means the Bills coaching staff gets one

351
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 1: vote for the Pro Bowl. There's thirty two votes, right,

352
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: and then the players each rostered team get on your

353
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: own team. Cannot vote for players on your own team.

354
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 1: So there's three votes out there, which means there's thirty

355
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: two coaching votes, thirty two player votes, and then the

356
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,399
Speaker 1: fan vote is what it is you don't have is

357
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: there's not thirty two of them. There's just a number.

358
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 1: So the highest one gets that position. So it doesn't

359
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: matter if you get ten votes, if nobody else at

360
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 1: your position gets more than ten votes, you're the guy

361
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: or the fan vote. That is so, and it changed

362
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: during my time in the league. They felt like fans

363
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: needed at least a voice in it. Up until that time,

364
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: it was only players and only coaches, and there are

365
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: subsequent awards that go to that the coach. They some

366
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 1: places take only the coaches votes and they pick their roster,

367
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 1: and then the players association has their awards as well

368
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 1: and their own special event, or they used to, I

369
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 1: don't know if they still do, where they tally only

370
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: the players that were voted on by the players and

371
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: they give them the awards for the top vote getter

372
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 1: at their position in each position on the field. So

373
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 1: there's many ways to break it down, but that's how

374
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 1: it works now. Three votes for there are three votes

375
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 1: out there, and so there you have it. And it

376
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if two of got you know, nine million

377
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 1: gazillion votes, the coaches and players didn't vote for him. Yeah,

378
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: time for us to turn now to sound Bits and

379
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 1: in this edition, presented by Tim Hordon's quarterback Josh Allen,

380
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: safety Jordan Poyer, tight end Dawson Knocks cornerback Kaye Elam

381
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 1: and defensive back Terren Johnson talk about preparing for the

382
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 1: cold weather against the Chicago Bears Saturday afternoon. It's gonna

383
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: be cold. To me, cold is gonna be windy? Um?

384
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: I think just preparing your mind, preparing yourself, whether you know,

385
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 1: talking to the equipment guys, you know, stuff that you know,

386
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 1: it's obviously we're gonna be playing on grass, a different

387
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:35,880
Speaker 1: type of field that we've been playing on the last

388
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, and so you know, just you know,

389
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: we got the right type of cleats that we got

390
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 1: to you know, put on, and you know, got a

391
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:42,479
Speaker 1: lot of trust for those guys in there to get

392
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: us right. I think it was last year's Divisional against

393
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: the Patriots. I think that was pretty cold. I don't

394
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: know if that was what a couple degrees at kickoff?

395
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:56,199
Speaker 1: UM played in the Mountains Championship game in Laramie. That

396
00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 1: was I think five degrees at kickoff. So this one's

397
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: gonna be chilly. What coldest game you've played in twenty

398
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 1: two degrees in Missouri. Yeah, it's supposed to be zero though,

399
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be one in the negatives with the

400
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: wind show, I think, um, that's one of those things

401
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,880
Speaker 1: you just can't control, so you're trying not to really

402
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: think about it too much. Under ten degrees, it's just

403
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: like all it's just cold, you know. I don't know

404
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:24,879
Speaker 1: how to else to describe it. But again, well, we

405
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: know certain things to keep our bodies warm, and um

406
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 1: our equipment staff to such a good job of making

407
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: sure that we have the right tools and equipment to

408
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 1: keep warm. On the sidelines, it's a mindset. You know,

409
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: you gotta come ready to play. They gotta play in

410
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: it too, so um, you know we're gonna we're gonna play.

411
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 1: What a win. Obviously, switching to the long sleeves during

412
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: the cold, that's that's a positive. I wore sleeves, but

413
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try not to wear sleeves games. Let's see

414
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 1: how that goes. If I know, some guys do like

415
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 1: a little wetsuit underneath that kind of traps all the

416
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: heat in um last year doing the divisional, I don't

417
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: remember if it was icy hot or vashline or something.

418
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 1: Put them on my toes to try to keep some

419
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: some warmth and insulation there. That's that's really all I do.

420
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: I start putting on warm skin and some bassline. I

421
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 1: never did that before, so yeah, help help the last

422
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 1: game mentally knowing we're gonna be outside, it's gonna be cold,

423
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: gonna be windy. Um. Sometimes it comes down to the

424
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: type of gloves you wear if it's gonna be a

425
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 1: little wet, um, type of cleats you wear on their field. Um.

426
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: Just little things like that that our equipment managers are

427
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,239
Speaker 1: so good at really takes the thinking off of our

428
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: place on Cleveland. A couple of years we had some

429
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 1: cold games. Um wasn't nothing like what it was last

430
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 1: year against New England. And it's definitely not gonna be

431
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: anything like where Chicago is gonna be like this weekend.

432
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 1: It's definitely gonna be cold. But I wore you know,

433
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 1: I went sleepless for that New England game last year.

434
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,200
Speaker 1: I think it was even colder and it was at night.

435
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 1: So you know, we'll be ready. I'm sure the ground

436
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: is gonna be super hard, just like it is when

437
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 1: it's you know here, but that shouldn't affect too much there.

438
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 1: And it's it's cold out there right now, you know.

439
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 1: I'm obviously it's faling be cold on Saturday, but it's

440
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 1: not that we're not used to. We were supposed to

441
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 1: get so much snow last game and it didn't come

442
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 1: really to that late and fourth quarter. So whatever the

443
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: weather is, we'll deal with it and kind of adjust

444
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: on the fly. But yeah, having that experience in the

445
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 1: wind and obviously playing and Laramie for a few years,

446
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 1: and I feel comfortable in that type of situation. But again,

447
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: every every game and situation is different, So I guess

448
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,359
Speaker 1: we'll see. Davis is gonna kind of affect some preparation things.

449
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: But we were out there today. If anyone's used in

450
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 1: the cold, it's us, so we'll be ready for it,

451
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: all right. That is Soundbits presented by Tim Horton's. We

452
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: also need to mention this week's game sponsor is well Now,

459
00:26:52,720 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills Radio. Here we are on one Bills Live.

460

Speaker 1: Chris Brown Steve Tasker. Time now for the all timid

461
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: fantasy lineup with Field Yates presented by FanDuel make every

462
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: moment more. It's the fantasy football Guru ready to give

463
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 1: you his best picks for daily fantasy this week and

464
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 1: down the stretch we come Field. That's right, Brown and Steve.

465
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: Great to be on with you, guys. And this is

466
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: the time of the year, or I think daily fantasy

467
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,439
Speaker 1: really shines because we are down to the final two

468
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 1: or three weeks of season long fantasy, and no matter

469
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 1: what size league you are in, you are down to

470
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 1: likely four or two teams and that's it. So this

471
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 1: is the time of the year in which people are

472
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,880
Speaker 1: out of their leagues in season long fantasy and playing

473
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,920
Speaker 1: daily fantasy instead. Yeah, and in fact, it's kind of

474
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 1: a how much difference does it make that you really

475
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: have a posed two week one, week two, even week

476
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 1: three and four. You really got a good handle on

477
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: where these teams are at most of the time, right

478
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: you do. You have a much better feel for what

479
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 1: these players value is under normal circumstances. One of the

480
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: themes though, is that this week, as you guys are

481
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: well aware in Buffalo and elsewhere. Elements are just a

482
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,120
Speaker 1: massive part of the equation. So I went through and

483
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 1: tried to find, for the most part, players who aren't

484
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 1: going to be dealing with the nastiest of elements. And

485
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 1: this week we have cold, and I'm talking extreme cold,

486
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 1: as you guys know. We have snow in play, we

487
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 1: have wind in play, we have rain in play. The

488
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 1: game just a handful of hours from right now could

489
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: be a downpour between the Jets and the Jaguars. So

490
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence may not be nearly as Fantasy relevant this

491
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: week as he would be in a normal week. So

492
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: I did my best to kind of thread that needle

493
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: with a couple of exceptions where I think the weather

494
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: could be in play. All right, So we begin at quarterback,

495
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: and another trend that you have been partaking in the

496
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: last few weeks is the double and sometimes triple dips.

497
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a second, but here's your QB.

498
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 1: That's right, Joe Burrow, who's just been so good for

499
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 1: so long now, and it's just been red hot with

500
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 1: the way that he's been commanding that offense. Plays the Patriots,

501
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 1: who know solid defense not necessarily dominant, but also not

502
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: a cakewalk. But the big thing here with Joe Burrow

503
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: is that weather shouldn't be a factor. Looks like it's

504
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: going to be cold, maybe a little bit windy, but

505
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 1: you know, as you guys can attest it, we live

506
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: you know, we live in New England, right or I

507
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: live in New England, I should say I live in Connecticut.

508
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 1: When it's down to twenty five degrees or twenty degrees

509
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: in December, we don't. We're non plus, right, That just

510
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 1: how the winds typically blow around here at this time

511
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: of the year. So no major weather concerns there. And

512
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: also a team that's just been playing really well. And

513
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,719
Speaker 1: when you've got other quarterbacks who are either impacted by

514
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 1: weather or in the case of Jalen Hurt, aren't going

515
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: to be available, Burrows one of the few top options

516
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 1: who's appropriately priced without major element concerns. Yeah, when you

517
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: get down to your running backs, I gotta tell you,

518
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: I love the running back combo you've got, and most

519
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 1: notably Checo for the Chiefs. That guy has come out

520
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 1: of nowhere from the beginning of the season and now

521
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: he is he's somebody I think he gotta have. Yeah,

522
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 1: and he reminds me the kind of players you play with.

523
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 1: Steve right right, this is an old school runner. This

524
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: guy every time he takes a hit, he gives a

525
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: hit as well, fast and explosive. Price to just sixty

526
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: seven hundred dollars. And while Jerick McKinnon has been the

527
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: Chiefs running back on fire of late, Pacheco has been

528
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: really good himself, handling north of fifteen carries per game,

529
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 1: and it's a great matchup. Seahawks have been one of

530
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 1: the worst run defenses in the NFL, especially over the

531
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: last six weeks, and they are not healthy along the

532
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: interior of their fronts. They've been calling guys up from

533
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: the practice squad and signing players off the street try

534
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 1: to get that run defense right. So Pacheco should be

535
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 1: a busy one that I think JK. Dobbins should be

536
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: busy as well. Off for the Ravens, they're down to

537
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley as their starting quarterback. Dobbins has been averaging

538
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: over eight yards per carrying his two games back from

539
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 1: ir which that number is hard to keep up. But

540
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: the way that he's running in a game and which

541
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 1: is going to be very cold, and by the way,

542
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: I should not it. In Kansas City, it's gonna be

543
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: like minus ten with the wind chills so very cold

544
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: there as well, no elements like wind or rain, but

545
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 1: still going to be an unpleasant day to tackle a

546
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 1: guy like Isaiah Pacheco. And then wide receiver is where

547
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: we're double and triple dipping here. Yeah. There we go

548
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 1: to the stacks and we've got both Jamar Chase and

549
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 1: te Higgins in our lineup for the Bengals, who, again,

550
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: they're awesome. Don't have to worry about whether that much.

551
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: Chase has been on fire since his return. And you know,

552
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 1: the Patriots cornerback group a little bit impacted by injuries.

553
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: They don't have a lockdown corner as it were, So

554
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,959
Speaker 1: I think this game could be one in which Cincinnati

555
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 1: navigates the ball down the field through the air. Patriots

556
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: run defense didn't show it against the Bills, but probably

557
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: better than their past defense of late. So you tap

558
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 1: into those two pass catchers and Incinnati, and anytime you

559
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 1: can have them in your fantasy line up, you feel

560
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 1: pretty good about it. And then Gabe Davis makes the

561
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: lineup as well for the Bills. Of course, going to Chicago,

562
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 1: we know that the weather could be a bit of

563
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 1: a concern or maybe a major concern in this game.

564
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: But the difference between Gay Davis and other wide receivers

565
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: that play with quarterbacks in this an early weather is

566
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: that Gabe Davis has the quarterback with perhaps the strongest

567
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 1: arm in the NFL, if not the strongest arm we've

568
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 1: seen in like ten years with Josh Allen. So I

569
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: know that it's not going to be ideal passing situations

570
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 1: for the Bills on Saturday, most likely in Chicago. But

571
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: you know, we remember that game last year a Monday

572
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: night where Pictures through the ball three times and Josh

573
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 1: in the second half really picked it up in terms

574
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 1: of his throwing. So wouldn't surprise me if Josh Allen's

575
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 1: able to look, you know, the most normal amongst all

576
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks that have to play in crappy conditions this weekend.

577
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: I gotta say too this. Maybe you did it once

578
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 1: or twice other but I think this is the first

579
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,719
Speaker 1: Bill you've had on your fantasy lineup the entire season, right.

580
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 1: I mean they've been not that they've been bad, but

581
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: it's hard to pick guys out right. Well, the biggest

582
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 1: problem for the Bills, Steve, is that they've got two

583
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: guys who are in your lineup every single week for

584
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: season long, in Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs. But in

585
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: daily Fantasy, you're looking for the discounts, right, You're looking

586
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 1: for the way to build the lineup. So if you're paying,

587
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: you know, Tiffany's pricing on Stefon Diggs, that might mean

588
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: that you're starting me at wide receiver at your second spot.

589
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: So that's Hey, the Bills, as you got at me.

590
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 1: I don't tell you guys this. They've just got like

591
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 1: they've got world class players at certain spots that just

592
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 1: in daily fantasy, you know, it's rare that I'm paying

593
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 1: the top dollar for the top players. So you don't

594
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 1: see a lot of Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes in

595
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: my lineup. Don't see a lot of Stefandis or Justin

596
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 1: Jefferson in my lineup. But just kind of be kind

597
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 1: of how the cookie crumbles and daily fantasy. So let's

598
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 1: move to the tight end in the flex position. Daniel Bellinger,

599
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 1: the New York Giants tight end at Minnesota. Yeah, I

600
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,959
Speaker 1: like this game here because it's played endorsed. So Daniel

601
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 1: Bellinger is kind of emerged as the Giants number one

602
00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 1: tight end, and you know, I give them so much credit.

603
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 1: You guys know Brian day Ball well, the job he's

604
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 1: done to get the most out of these guys, it's

605
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,240
Speaker 1: just so impressive. I mean, as players that have hardly

606
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 1: been heard from in the NFL before, guys that have

607
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,839
Speaker 1: been cast off from elsewhere, and bellingerrow rookie has been

608
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 1: good for them. Plays against that Minnesota defense that certainly

609
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 1: can be had. And then in that same game, we

610
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: have my flex consideration, which is Adam Feeling, who the

611
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 1: volume has been pretty steady for Adam Feelin. You know,

612
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 1: he's been okay, found the end zone last week in

613
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 1: that crazy game against the Colts. But the price is

614
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,439
Speaker 1: pretty good here at sixty six hundred dollars, so able

615
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 1: to fit him under the remaining salary cap, which you

616
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: always love to see in your daily fantasy lineup. And

617
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: then on defense, I know this is often an afterthought,

618
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 1: but it's a unit that's played better in recent weeks.

619
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: I mean, this was a team that couldn't stop anybody

620
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 1: the first half of the year, but they've kind of

621
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,720
Speaker 1: turned it around a bit, that's right. The Detroit Lions,

622
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,279
Speaker 1: priced at thirty nine hundred dollars, which leaves us one

623
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 1: hundred left over in case you wanted to pivot and

624
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 1: adjust it there. But but the Lions have done extremely

625
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,359
Speaker 1: well for the past seven weeks is defend the run.

626
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 1: They haven't allowed a running back to go over ten

627
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 1: fantasy points in seven straight games. And as you guys know,

628
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 1: the Panthers just want to pound the football left and right.

629
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 1: They didn't really get much done last week in the

630
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: running game could be a struggle as well, So it

631
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 1: could be more of a passing game. And I take

632
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 1: my chances even if my secondary is not great like

633
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 1: Detroit's is not great against Sam Darnold. So wouldn't be

634
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,000
Speaker 1: surprised if this is a game in which the Lions

635
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 1: defense looks better than the numbers have shown it to

636
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: be so far this season. We absolutely the Carolina is

637
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 1: struggling with their quarterback spot, and also all over the

638
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 1: field is a perfect matchup. And what else strikes you

639
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 1: about this week in fantasy looking around the league, at

640
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 1: the weather, at the conditions, at the matchups, what teams

641
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 1: have taken their foot off the gas because they're looking

642
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 1: for a draft pick. All of that stuff goes into

643
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 1: the mix. It's a quirky time. The biggest story for

644
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: fantasy is the fact that Jalen Hurts won't be available

645
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: on Saturday. Who's been the highest scoring player in all

646
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,959
Speaker 1: of fantasy football this season. He's been red hot of late,

647
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:09,840
Speaker 1: with twenty nine point eight two points or more in

648
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 1: each of his past four games. Has been perhaps the

649
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 1: Fantasy MVP. And on ESPN, if you look at the

650
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 1: percentage of teams that had Jalen Hurts on them that

651
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 1: made the playoffs, it was sixty five point four percent.

652
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 1: You had him, you're basically a two thirds chance to

653
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 1: make the playoffs, and now you don't have him. So

654
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,400
Speaker 1: that's the biggest story of the weekend. Can Gardner Minshew

655
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 1: step up? Can Derek Carr step up? Maybe Jared Goff

656
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 1: step up as a substitute quarterback. But if you get

657
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 1: to win this weekend with Jared excuse me, with Jalen

658
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,759
Speaker 1: Hurts on your bench because of the injury, might tip

659
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 1: my cap to you because it won't be easy. He

660
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 1: has just been that brilliant in carrying a lot of

661
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,840
Speaker 1: teams to the semifinals. Field is always thanks for the

662
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,760
Speaker 1: time and the insight. Have a merry Christmas with your family,

663
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,800
Speaker 1: we'll catch up with her before the new year. That's right, guys,

664
00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: were down to nitty gritty here a couple more so,

665
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: I look for talking to you next Thursday. Already, all

666
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: ESPN's field Yates joining us as he does every week.

667
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 1: Here for the ultimate Fantasy lineup presented by FanDuel, make

668
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:15,640
Speaker 1: every moment more Steve. The Bear's injury report is out

669
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 1: for tomorrow's game, and they're gonna be without a few

670
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 1: pretty important players. They're going to be without a guy

671
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,839
Speaker 1: who Corey Wooton on the Show with Us yesterday said

672
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 1: is kind of emerged as their best receiver talent with

673
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 1: a guy like Mooney on IR among others. Equanimi is

674
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:36,560
Speaker 1: Saint Brown out because he's still in concussion protocol. He

675
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 1: has been declared out for tomorrow's game. And then Chase

676
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:44,359
Speaker 1: Claypool is doubtful their trade deadline pickup, so he may

677
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 1: not go either. And you know what, maybe they're thinking

678
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,279
Speaker 1: with the conditions expected, it may not mean a hill

679
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 1: of beans. I don't know. Here's the thing too, you

680
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 1: and I know I'm I'm may be seeing shadows, but

681
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 1: I remember games like this where you go in and

682
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 1: they've got you know, You seriously have to look at

683
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 1: the program to see who the guy is that they're playing.

684
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:08,759
Speaker 1: And I don't know where the guy has a game

685
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 1: of his life. Well because he gets opportunity, right because

686
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 1: and because the defense you're playing, like say, for instance,

687
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:18,719
Speaker 1: and I'm not saying they're gonna do this. I'm just saying,

688
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 1: for instance, Leslie Fraser says, all right, they're gonna beat this.

689
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to throw it to beat us. And

690
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna play man with Kayyer. We're gonna play man

691
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,719
Speaker 1: with Tredevious and see if Billy Bag of Donuts and

692
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: Joey Joey, you know, Potato Chip can keep up. So

693
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,320
Speaker 1: they get So you go in there with that philosophy

694
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 1: and these guys, and these guys get opportunity to catch

695
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 1: the ball and justin Fields don't care he's throwing it,

696
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: and they have a good day. You hate to see it.

697
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 1: As a Bills fan, you think it, but you think

698
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:49,839
Speaker 1: about stuff like that as a player. You don't want

699
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:55,440
Speaker 1: to have some nondescript offense or player in this case

700
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 1: who would never have been on the field in normal

701
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:02,400
Speaker 1: circumstances come out and make a name for himself against

702
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 1: you because you know, a guy like that, he's gonna

703
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 1: have some skills. He's gonna be on an NFL roster.

704
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 1: He's gonna be there for a reasons, Gonna be fast,

705
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 1: gonna be big, he's gonna be able to catch run routes,

706
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it, whatever his skill set is,

707
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:16,239
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, he's gonna get like twelve targets,

708
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 1: you know, eight catches for a for a buck ninety

709
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 1: and a touchdown kind of thing. You know, Um, it happens.

710
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: It happens because all these a lot of these guys

711
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: are sitting around waiting around. Look at I say, Hodgens,

712
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,919
Speaker 1: how he's doing in New York. They need a chance, Yeah,

713
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 1: and a chance like a in a spot like this,

714
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 1: you know, those those opportunities come. Yeah. A couple of

715
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:41,359
Speaker 1: um starting offensive lineman for the Bears look like they're

716
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,320
Speaker 1: gonna be down as well. Tevin Jenkins, who we already

717
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: knew was unlikely to play this week, he's doubtu. He's

718
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 1: he's listed as no. I think he's out, This says debt.

719
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 1: Mind says doubt. Okay, so he's doubtful. And then Cody

720
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:59,680
Speaker 1: white Hare is doubtful also, And uh, those are two

721
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: guys normally start for the Bears. And what did we

722
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: hear Corey Wooton tell us yesterday? He basically said, the

723
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 1: big problem for the Bears right now is their offensive

724
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 1: and defensive lines. They cannot win at the line of scrimmage.

725
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: Now you're gonna be down potentially two starting guards. Yesh,

726
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 1: I mean, good luck with that. We've seen it, you know,

727
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 1: during Sean McDermott's time here and when Josh was a

728
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 1: rookie twenty eighteen, they you know, their offensive line was

729
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 1: a little bit hodgepodge. They lost Eric Wood and Richie

730
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: Incognito unexpectedly when they ended the season that season before,

731
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 1: and they're coming into twenty eighteen, they thought they had

732
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,080
Speaker 1: those two guys, those great players. That's forty percent of

733
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:44,919
Speaker 1: your offensive line. That's pretty playing, playing at a pretty

734
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,840
Speaker 1: high level. Richie Incognito goes off the rails and retires,

735
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,880
Speaker 1: and Eric Wood has an unexpected injury that ends his career.

736
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 1: And you don't get any like extra draft picks or

737
00:40:55,760 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 1: extra free agent stuff to replace those guys, and they couldn't,

738
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,720
Speaker 1: and they paid the price. And I think since that time,

739
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 1: we've seen this club. Make sure they've got big bodies

740
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 1: up front that can play and have a lot of

741
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 1: them extra ones. Even so, we'll see if they continue

742
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,759
Speaker 1: to keep that up. But that's what the Bears are

743
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 1: up against. They got a young quarterback. He's actly like

744
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 1: the Bills did in twenty eighteen, and their offensive line

745
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: has crumbled in front of him. Yeah, break time for

746
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,360
Speaker 1: us here, And speaking of breaks, when we come back,

747
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:32,880

Speaker 1: fresh honeycomb. Unbelievable. Yeah, we've been plowing through snapdragon apples

762
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:36,439
Speaker 1: at an alarming rate since they came. It's been great.

763
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 1: And this bags over earlier this week for everybody for

00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 1: it's fun. These these charcootery board, which this thing is

766
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,719
Speaker 1: like a work of art. Yeah, these are available at

767
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 1: Wegmans and other retailers. You get them, and you it's

768
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 1: neat because we were You did the right thing. You

769
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 1: asked the pros when they brought it in, like what

770
00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 1: mixes good with what else? And you mix all this

771
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 1: stuff together and you know it makes makes a mouthful

772
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:05,319
Speaker 1: of you know, the cool, great stuff. So here here

773
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,280
Speaker 1: are my top choices on this board, because I already

774
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: sampled a good portion of it. Okay, never would have

775
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,920
Speaker 1: thought in my wildest dreams to wrap a snap dragon

776
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 1: apple slice with a prisutto pretty good. That works for me.

777
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:22,800
Speaker 1: And then, uh, the nice guy that brought the board

778
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:26,080
Speaker 1: in for us, um, he said pair it with the

779
00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:28,279
Speaker 1: nuts over there, and I was like, oh, okay, yeah,

780
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,640
Speaker 1: well kind of nuts are these? I don't even remember

781
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 1: because I'm just I'm just not good at that. For

782
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: all I know is it all tastes good. But there's

783
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:37,719
Speaker 1: a bunch. But here's what we've got on the board, Snapdragon,

784
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:43,280
Speaker 1: apple slices, parjutto, as I mentioned, spec salami, cloth bound cheddar.

785
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:47,520

786
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:51,319
Speaker 1: so a number of cheeses, snap Dragon apple sauce. But

787
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 1: I heard him call it apple butter, apple butters, not

788
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,319
Speaker 1: apple sauces. Apple, it's not it's not apple sauce. It's

789
00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,360
Speaker 1: thicker than that, and it spreads like I've got some

790
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 1: of these like peanut butter. Well it's not quite that

791
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: thick spreads like yeah, like a spread, not like a

792
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:12,319
Speaker 1: like apple sauce. You can't like a dip. Almost. Yeah.

793
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,879
Speaker 1: Almonds and dried fruit are on here also, but that's

794
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,880
Speaker 1: and that honeycomb is that's what almost those are almonds,

795
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:22,839
Speaker 1: but they're like roasted salted something really really really good

796
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:28,120

Speaker 1: have a very merry pre Christmas feast here with the Charcouter.

799
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 1: Even though you and I are foodies, there's no way

803
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 1: brought in here has been top notch. So yeah, if

804
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,759
Speaker 1: you get a chance, get get down to Wegmans or

805
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:53,759
Speaker 1: some of your other local retailers see if they could

806
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:55,839
Speaker 1: put a Charcouter board like this together. It's this thing

807
00:44:55,840 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: so unbelievable. This boards as long as my arm. Fantastic.

808

809
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 1: right feel to it. It's yeah, like I said, it's

810
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 1: a work of art, this one. So we've got a

811
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: topic of discussion on the board for you today. We

812
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,319
Speaker 1: have yet to get to it, but it concerns Saturday's

813
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 1: game obviously. We want to know what your plans are

814
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 1: for Saturday's game amid the storm and the holiday. A

815
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,359
Speaker 1: lot of people are juggling that right now. You've got

816
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,960
Speaker 1: the Bills game smack dab in the middle of the weekend,

817
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:32,359
Speaker 1: so we're kind of curious how you're navigating and balancing

818
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 1: holiday plans with the game. Maybe everybody's coming together a

819
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: day earlier to watch the game together. Then you disperse

820
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,879
Speaker 1: and then you regroup again on Christmas. Like, I'm really

821
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,719
Speaker 1: curious what the dynamics are some of the bills coming

822
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 1: through on our on our reply column right now, are

823
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 1: that you know, well, I was planning to do a

824
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:55,719
Speaker 1: B and C, but now I don't know. I don't know.

825
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:58,359
Speaker 1: And that's that's kind of where we were at this

826
00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:00,040
Speaker 1: morning when you come in and we're like, because we

827

828
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,440
Speaker 1: do the show from Chicago theoretically, theoretically, if you know,

829
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,839
Speaker 1: if which was not an option earlier on the normal

830
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 1: travel plans because you've been traveling. But since you're going

831
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:17,359
Speaker 1: early now you can do the show. Um. We were

832
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:18,799
Speaker 1: up in the air too about what we're gonna do,

833
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 1: how we're gonna handle it. We don't have pre or

834
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:22,840

838
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:35,799
Speaker 1: and that's you know, so everything is kind of up

839
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 1: in the air with the holidays and the travel and

840
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 1: all the plans and all the and the people that

841
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: are feeding back giving us feedback on our question for

842
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:44,719
Speaker 1: the day is you know how you had to handle

843
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:51,400
Speaker 1: this storm slash Christmas slash um Bill's game, and they're going, well, basically,

844
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 1: it's like, I don't know, we were gonna do something cool,

845
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,520
Speaker 1: but now we might not be able to. I mean,

846
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,359
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, Bills fans always find a way

847
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 1: to make sure they catch the game. They just may

848
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,080
Speaker 1: not be doing with all the people they thought they were.

849
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,520
Speaker 1: You know, if there are travel restrictions here in Western

850
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,240
Speaker 1: New York come Saturday based on the weather we're anticipating,

851
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 1: you know, that's gonna force people to kind of stay

852
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 1: put where they are rather than get out in the

853
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 1: weather and try to drive and potentially treacherous conditions. So,

854
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:26,360
Speaker 1: you know, as much as you want to be with family,

855
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:31,520
Speaker 1: you also got to do what's smart. So as much

856
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:34,080
Speaker 1: as you make the bills your top priority, please make

857
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,719
Speaker 1: your own safety your top priority this weekend. With the

858
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 1: weather we're anticipating, for sure, I mean, I think and

859
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 1: I don't know that this has been decided there ain't

860
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,160
Speaker 1: gonna be no school tomorrow. Nobody's gonna be in school. No,

861
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:48,880

Speaker 1: announced for tomorrow, just you know, pull the rip chord.

863
00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: So I'm but everybody's plans are up in the air

864
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:59,520
Speaker 1: right now, right even even the years with the team's

865
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:01,880

866
00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:04,480
Speaker 1: in Chicago looking one o'clock on Saturday. I don't know

867
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:06,360
Speaker 1: how they're gonna get there. We're looking for an open

868
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:11,200
Speaker 1: window to ensure an expedited flight, you know where. They're

869
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 1: not waiting here to take off, and they're not waiting

870
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 1: there circling around waiting the lane. They don't want. They

871
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:20,960
Speaker 1: don't want, they're planning. They listen, when you charter a plane,

872
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,879
Speaker 1: you get to make this kind of call. You don't

873
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,319
Speaker 1: want to get to the airport and be sitting in

874
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,239
Speaker 1: the air We've all done, all the people who travel

875
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:29,120
Speaker 1: a lot. You've been the guy who gets on the airplane.

876
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:30,759
Speaker 1: All right, we're pulling away from the gate, and then

877
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,600
Speaker 1: you sit for three hours waiting to get out of

878
00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:36,759
Speaker 1: your city you're in, or get into the city you're

879
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,319
Speaker 1: going to. You sit in the plane waiting for that

880
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:41,920
Speaker 1: window to open. The Bills don't want the players to

881
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:45,680
Speaker 1: do that, particularly around the holiday season. They say, listen,

882
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:48,280
Speaker 1: when can we go to the airport, get on the plane,

883
00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,279
Speaker 1: fly land, and get out back to the air to

884
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 1: the hotel all in one shot, right? And I don't

885
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:57,759
Speaker 1: want to get in the air and circle Chicago for

886
00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 1: thirty minutes before we let you know what I mean. Oh,

887
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 1: I know. So they're trying to make sure that all happens,

888
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:06,759
Speaker 1: but I guess they got to ask somebody they do.

889
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,399
Speaker 1: So there you go. We will take a break here

890

00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 1: gonna be sitting around and going through every owl or

912
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:01,279
Speaker 1: whatever I want to. I want to see this because

913
00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:03,279
Speaker 1: I've been through one of them before. So for me,

914
00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,839
Speaker 1: I go to Wagman's or any of the story, any

915
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:14,839
Speaker 1: retail story. I walk around, I may get one go Bills, right,

916
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:19,759
Speaker 1: you go out? How do you go to the supermarket?

917
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:23,800
Speaker 1: And not like even you can't even get through because

918
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 1: I know every way a minute. I was just at

919
00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:29,600
Speaker 1: the Bills store here on the stadium here in the

920
00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:34,440
Speaker 1: stadium and got one billy and I lady took a

921
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 1: picture with me and that was it. Then I was

922
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:39,680
Speaker 1: in there for fifteen twenty minutes. How many people are people? Oh,

923
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:43,640
Speaker 1: it's jam packed over there. You can't nobody said anything.

924
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:47,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I was like this, but I'm still like this,

925
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 1: Like if you can't tell I was in there, one lady,

926
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:53,400
Speaker 1: one lady. I got a couple of people that smiled

927
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 1: at me and didn't say anything. But I even checked out.

928
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:58,920
Speaker 1: They didn't even know who I was. I will say that,

929
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,799
Speaker 1: what's the world coming? I need to work on that. Um.

930
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:09,920
Speaker 1: I will say this, fans in Western New York, for

931
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:15,400
Speaker 1: the most part, Uh, they have a respect for personal space,

932
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:18,880
Speaker 1: and I think a lot of times they're just respectful

933
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 1: of you know, this guy's just trying to do some

934
00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:24,920
Speaker 1: shopping here, Like I don't want to bum rush Thurman

935
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:26,719
Speaker 1: here and ask him for a photo and you know,

936
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:29,239
Speaker 1: write a letter to my grandkids and everything else, you

937
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:32,279
Speaker 1: know what I mean. I think there is some I

938
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,759
Speaker 1: think there's a conscience on a part of a lot

939
00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 1: of a lot of bills fans in this area, like

940
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:39,080
Speaker 1: they know, like, hey, these guys gotta live their lives

941
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:42,640
Speaker 1: too kind of thing. Um, I think there's part of that,

942
00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 1: because I mean you're telling me one person recognized in

943
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 1: the bill store, that's a bunch of hogwarts. Those are

944
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:53,799
Speaker 1: people that recognize you and just kept their distance there

945
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,560
Speaker 1: at that in New York you got eight people up

946
00:52:56,640 --> 00:52:58,920
Speaker 1: of players. But there is something a little bit about

947
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,440
Speaker 1: living here, being around all the time. I mean, he's

948
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:03,880
Speaker 1: in and around all yeah, and he lives here. We

949
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:06,920
Speaker 1: still I mean, you're you're around. Oh you think are

950
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:11,919
Speaker 1: you saying the novelty of seeing Derman Thomas? What it? Could?

951
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 1: You feel sometimes like you're part of the furniture. Like

952
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:17,719
Speaker 1: you don't say hi to hear a coffee table every

953
00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:20,120
Speaker 1: time you walk by. Right, So it's like, hey, you know,

954
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:24,680
Speaker 1: I'm good with it. Yea, if somebody noticed, yeah, it's

955
00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:27,040
Speaker 1: fine whatever. I'll say it again. I said this a

956
00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:28,880
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago because it actually happened to me

957
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:31,400
Speaker 1: and somebody said, yeah, you guys, you all your nineties

958
00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:34,520
Speaker 1: Bills players, you're all football royalty here in Buffalo, And

959
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 1: I said, no, it's better than being royalty. We're family

960
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 1: because people in trees is like royalty. The trees like family,

961
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:42,959
Speaker 1: which is way better spot to be in for me, right,

962
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 1: And that's I said, no, not royalty, were family because

963
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:49,840
Speaker 1: everybody he called, hey, Steve, what's going You know that

964
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,520
Speaker 1: you know third they call you by your name, they like,

965
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:57,080
Speaker 1: there's a level of familiarity and affection that is different

966
00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:01,239
Speaker 1: than like say Dan Marino in South Florida right right

967
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 1: where you know he's securing the Queen's Way exactly right. Yeah,

968
00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:10,440
Speaker 1: the crowd parts, right, I mean, so there's none of

969
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:12,919
Speaker 1: that going on here. It's a much better place I think. Yeah.

970
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,120
Speaker 1: I was totally with you to get it all right.

971
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:20,480
Speaker 1: So let's talk about playing in some major cold weather

972
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,680
Speaker 1: because we're looking at wind chills in Chicago of you know,

973
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:27,440
Speaker 1: somewhere between fifteen and twenty below. Ye. When does it

974
00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:31,680
Speaker 1: become a concern with respect to ball security therm? Because

975
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:33,719
Speaker 1: I know a lot of times you didn't want to

976
00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:35,960
Speaker 1: wear sleeves because that would affect ball security. But what

977
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:39,320
Speaker 1: about your hands getting so dang cold that you almost

978
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:43,000
Speaker 1: can't feel yourself holding the ball? Five points of pressure,

979
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:45,880
Speaker 1: all that stuff, man, I tell you the best the

980
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,279
Speaker 1: best thing about that is that when you're out there

981
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:51,560
Speaker 1: and Steph, the white receivers or whatever. Man, you try

982
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,200
Speaker 1: to get jobs to try to put the ball as

983
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:56,040
Speaker 1: close as he can for you to catch it with

984
00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:58,480
Speaker 1: your body. I know that might seem like because hurt

985
00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:01,240
Speaker 1: your hands, right, yeah, I know that it might seem like, Oh,

986
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 1: but you gotta catch it with your hands if he

987
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,480
Speaker 1: can put it in a situation where where you can

988
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,040
Speaker 1: catch it, and some guys adopted that. I guarantee you'll

989
00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:10,400
Speaker 1: see Steph Diggs adopted that to where a ball may

990
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 1: be coming instead of him catching like this or like this,

991
00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 1: he'll catch it with his body. Body. He'll catch it

992
00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,359
Speaker 1: and he'll time it perfectly when the ball gets there

993
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:20,719
Speaker 1: and he can and he can. The ball does get

994
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:23,520
Speaker 1: slippery when it gets cold and all that stuff. But

995
00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 1: what about it too, is it's a little bit of

996
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:29,400
Speaker 1: self preservation, is man. It hurts to a hit When

997
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:31,480
Speaker 1: you got the ball and you can you catch it

998
00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:34,920
Speaker 1: and flex immediately knowing you're gonna get contact, you know,

999
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:37,600
Speaker 1: doesn't sting as bad. Right. It's just just like for

1000
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,800
Speaker 1: an example like with Josh, it's gonna be cold and

1001
00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:44,279
Speaker 1: he get one of those fingers to helmet, it's gonna hurt. Oh,

1002
00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:47,640
Speaker 1: it's gonna hurt severely. I mean, it's and it's gonna

1003
00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,160
Speaker 1: be painful for a while. I mean, but obviously you know,

1004
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:52,399
Speaker 1: Josh is gonna probably stay in there or whatever. But

1005
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:54,560
Speaker 1: those are the type of little hits right there that

1006
00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:58,600
Speaker 1: can just linger off for a game turn. If you're

1007
00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:01,080
Speaker 1: out there on a long drive on offense, you know,

1008
00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,440
Speaker 1: you've been away from the sideline heaters for about ten

1009
00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:06,920
Speaker 1: minutes like minus twenty five wind chill, like you're not

1010
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 1: gonna be feeling your fingertips. What do you do with

1011
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:11,359
Speaker 1: with the ball too? Like you almost can't even feel

1012
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,880
Speaker 1: like yourself squeezing the ball? Yeah, have you ever? I mean,

1013
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 1: you were here for that Raiders game. That was that's

1014
00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:19,480
Speaker 1: what did you do? It was? It was okay, Yeah,

1015
00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:23,080
Speaker 1: it was okay, it was fine. Okay, you still had

1016
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:27,120
Speaker 1: like grip that's your glove. Yeah, that's my grip from

1017
00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:29,319
Speaker 1: your glove. You know. So it wasn't just like just

1018
00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:31,880
Speaker 1: like hanging loose or whatever. It's like slippery. It was

1019
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:35,880
Speaker 1: where like you would I would change gloves probably about

1020
00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:39,160
Speaker 1: five or six times a game just to keep that

1021
00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:43,120
Speaker 1: stickiness on the glove. The technology helps. The technology helps

1022
00:56:43,120 --> 00:56:44,640
Speaker 1: a lot of where you know, and the ball is

1023
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:46,960
Speaker 1: gonna be cold, it might be slipper, but that grip

1024
00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:49,360
Speaker 1: that you have with your gloves is very important, just

1025
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:52,560
Speaker 1: to keep it closer to your body. Yeah, that's that's

1026
00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:55,480
Speaker 1: a key thing. And once you get out there, I

1027
00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 1: mean you're in a game and the concentration level goes

1028
00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:01,319
Speaker 1: way up. You're kind and trading on playing. What's going on?

1029
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:03,480
Speaker 1: How you're gonna play? You don't really think that my

1030
00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:05,960
Speaker 1: hands are cool, because you'll everbody's got those pocket warmers

1031
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:07,839
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, so you can kind of catch

1032
00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:13,000
Speaker 1: it up to it between I never right, you have them. Yeah,

1033
00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,440
Speaker 1: when you guys are playing. Yeah, yeah, oh yeah, I

1034
00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 1: never I think I may want once or twice. But

1035
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:20,320
Speaker 1: the just going with the Florida game, right. But the

1036
00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 1: thing is, though, when you're out there and you know

1037
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 1: somebody's calling the plane, you think you're lining up and

1038
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:26,600
Speaker 1: you're you're not. You can't even you don't even think

1039
00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:28,600
Speaker 1: about the coal. You're and you're running around moving. Yeah,

1040
00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:31,240
Speaker 1: the blood's moving, your heat, your heat or get keeps

1041
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:34,560
Speaker 1: you okay. But you walk off the sideline, you know,

1042
00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:36,200
Speaker 1: you try and get a little quick drink of something.

1043
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 1: You turn around, it's like, oh my gosh, it's clear.

1044
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:40,720
Speaker 1: I mean even at that time. I mean, you can't

1045
00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:42,760
Speaker 1: just you can sit down for a little bit, but

1046
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 1: you gotta get up and start going because it might

1047
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:46,720
Speaker 1: could be a one, two or three and punt and

1048
00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:49,240
Speaker 1: defense got to sit down. Yeah, I might sit down

1049
00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:51,240
Speaker 1: a little bit. I gotta get up and get going

1050
00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 1: because when they punt, you don't know if you're gonna

1051
00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,600
Speaker 1: go right away or you're gonna have an it's extra time.

1052
00:57:55,920 --> 00:58:00,320
Speaker 1: It's really hard to stay loose and warm, you know,

1053
00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:04,160
Speaker 1: even the jacket help if it's windy, you know, help

1054
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:09,280
Speaker 1: if it's windy, but you still feel you could get warm,

1055
00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 1: you gotta go stand by the turbo heaters or sit

1056
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:13,479
Speaker 1: on the bench there. That means you got to stand

1057
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:16,680
Speaker 1: still to get warm. But you can't stay loose and

1058
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:20,040
Speaker 1: get ready to play standing still even if you're warm.

1059
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. It's yeah, it's that's a rough,

1060
00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:27,120
Speaker 1: that's a rough balance. And continue to hydrate too, I mean,

1061
00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:29,480
Speaker 1: I mean, well, when it's well, you don't realize what

1062
00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:33,840
Speaker 1: you're losing, right, don't less thirsty? You know you couldn't

1063
00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:35,680
Speaker 1: be less. You don't want anything, you just give me,

1064
00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:37,960
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And then so you're drinking.

1065
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:42,400
Speaker 1: It's like it's like gag, but you just still got

1066
00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:46,520
Speaker 1: to do it. Yeah, what, let's talk a little justin fields.

1067
00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:47,959
Speaker 1: I know we don't get a ton of Bears games

1068
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:51,160
Speaker 1: here therm, but guy's got one hundred and forty three

1069
00:58:51,240 --> 00:58:56,760
Speaker 1: carries a thousand rushing yards. It doesn't matter if it's

1070
00:58:56,760 --> 00:59:00,520
Speaker 1: a design run or it's him just you know, breaking

1071
00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:04,040
Speaker 1: contain and taking off. I mean, this kid's got like

1072
00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:09,280
Speaker 1: five carries over fifty yards. Yeah. Um, he's He's only

1073
00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:11,520
Speaker 1: the third quarterback to run for a thousand yards in

1074
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,560
Speaker 1: the seasons. He did it in fourteen games. Yeah. Yeah,

1075
00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:19,160
Speaker 1: he I means as him and Lamar Jackson, those two

1076
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 1: other guys, right, yeah, I mean, I mean Michael Vick's

1077
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:25,720
Speaker 1: the only other guy. He's fast. He's fast. Yeah. He

1078
00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:28,400
Speaker 1: doesn't look fast though on tape. Like you're watching him here,

1079
00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:30,680
Speaker 1: you're like, how's he got running those guys? Yeah, Like

1080
00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:33,240
Speaker 1: you watch Lamar run and you're like, that guy's fast,

1081
00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:36,120
Speaker 1: Like you know what I mean, he looks fast. Yeah, yeah,

1082
00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:39,000
Speaker 1: he doesn't look as fast as he is. He strides,

1083
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,160
Speaker 1: I mean he runs like a running back. Yeah, he

1084
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:44,960
Speaker 1: definitely look at this st glides. Yeah, I mean there's

1085
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:49,000
Speaker 1: two steps and he's gone. So I mean, yes, hey,

1086
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:53,120
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a force. Um. You know, then you

1087
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:56,560
Speaker 1: think about how this this offense is gonna keep going

1088
00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:58,400
Speaker 1: like this for the next four or five years while

1089
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:00,560
Speaker 1: he's the quarterback, or are they gonna get some white

1090
01:00:00,600 --> 01:00:03,920
Speaker 1: receivers or is he going I think you have to develop.

1091
01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:06,240
Speaker 1: I think we can all say that with Lamar Jackson,

1092
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:09,200
Speaker 1: he has developed into a better passer when he first

1093
01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:11,440
Speaker 1: came into the league until now he's a better passer.

1094
01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:14,040
Speaker 1: And I think you're seeing the same thing with Justin Field.

1095
01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:18,320
Speaker 1: He's gonna have to work on it because its talented

1096
01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:20,920
Speaker 1: and athletic. We don't want him like we don't want

1097
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:23,320
Speaker 1: Josh doing all these run plays all the time. Yeah.

1098
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:25,200
Speaker 1: So I think you know, there's going to come a

1099
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:27,800
Speaker 1: time where you know, he's gonna his performance in the

1100
01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:30,200
Speaker 1: passing game is gonna have to step up. Yeah, he

1101
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:33,040
Speaker 1: doesn't have really anybody to throw to. The best receivers

1102
01:00:33,040 --> 01:00:35,600
Speaker 1: out for the year and bid. Yeah, and they're in

1103
01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:37,960
Speaker 1: rebuild though they've loaded up for the draft this year. Now,

1104
01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 1: the GM's gotta hit on the picks. But I think

1105
01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:43,720
Speaker 1: they will surround him and they need offensive linemen and receivers.

1106
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:45,440
Speaker 1: For this guy, I think you get you got. I mean,

1107
01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 1: just like with the league now, you have to get

1108
01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:51,080
Speaker 1: a veteran receiver, maybe a veteran tight end, and maybe

1109
01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:53,000
Speaker 1: have to add a rookie or two in the first

1110
01:00:53,080 --> 01:00:55,200
Speaker 1: or second round. You have to go that way. There's

1111
01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:57,760
Speaker 1: nowhere other way to go unless you're gonna spend big

1112
01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:00,480
Speaker 1: time money and you know, try to get Justin Jefferson

1113
01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:03,440
Speaker 1: from the Miami from the Minnesota Vikings, which is never

1114
01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:05,919
Speaker 1: going to happen. If you get a guy like that,

1115
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:07,920
Speaker 1: yes you signed him to the big money, but I

1116
01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:10,240
Speaker 1: think these guys have to build in draft picks and

1117
01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:13,200
Speaker 1: some better ring guys. We talked about a little earlier

1118
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,000
Speaker 1: in the show, and I kind of equated the Bears

1119
01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:18,200
Speaker 1: where they're at right now to the Bills in twenty

1120
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:20,240
Speaker 1: and eighteen. They got this young quarterback. He's trying to

1121
01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:22,200
Speaker 1: make he doesn't have any weapons and his offensive lines

1122
01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:25,800
Speaker 1: of mass. That's kind of where they're at, and he

1123
01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:28,000
Speaker 1: has gotten better and if when they win it's because

1124
01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:30,760
Speaker 1: of him, which is exactly where the Bills were in

1125
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:32,560
Speaker 1: Josh's rookie year. If they're gonna win a game is

1126
01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:34,520
Speaker 1: because he doesn't make mistakes and he just is who

1127
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:37,320
Speaker 1: he is off the page, running all over the joint.

1128
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:40,160
Speaker 1: People are worried about him getting hurt. The whole thing.

1129
01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:42,320
Speaker 1: It's exactly where the Bills were. Yeah, this is what

1130
01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:45,360
Speaker 1: his second year, Yes it is. This is his second year.

1131
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:47,520
Speaker 1: So I mean did he play a lot last year?

1132
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,160
Speaker 1: I can't remember, not an not a ton, but he

1133
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:53,280
Speaker 1: got in a few games. He got him and Andy Dalton,

1134
01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:55,240
Speaker 1: I think yes year yeah, yeah, and then he took

1135
01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,880
Speaker 1: over this year. So I mean, look, there's opportunity for

1136
01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:01,200
Speaker 1: him to grow as a passer and I think he

1137
01:02:01,280 --> 01:02:04,800
Speaker 1: has the running down. It's just all about building those parks, man.

1138
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:07,160
Speaker 1: And like you said, with Josh, it was the same way.

1139
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,400
Speaker 1: What first year was six and ten? Yeah, Josh's first

1140
01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:12,439
Speaker 1: year was six and tier right, and we were all

1141
01:02:12,480 --> 01:02:17,040
Speaker 1: talking about the completion center percentage and everything like that.

1142
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:19,600
Speaker 1: But you know what, this guy is a player. I mean,

1143
01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:21,880
Speaker 1: he's in a major market in Chicago. I mean, come on,

1144
01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:24,959
Speaker 1: you got the Bears, you got Green Bay, you got

1145
01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:27,919
Speaker 1: the Vikings, and with the quarterbacks that they have in

1146
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:30,600
Speaker 1: that division, they have to get better. He has to

1147
01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:33,240
Speaker 1: get better, and that whole football team has to get better,

1148
01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:36,600
Speaker 1: because I tear right now, I'm I'm cheering for my

1149
01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:42,640
Speaker 1: Barry Sanders and my Detroit Lions. Yeah, Barry's probably pretty happy.

1150
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:46,280
Speaker 1: We talked about this earlier that we wanted to get

1151
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:49,560
Speaker 1: your take on at Thurman. The Bears are the number

1152
01:02:49,600 --> 01:02:53,040
Speaker 1: one rushing team in football doing part two justin fields.

1153
01:02:53,080 --> 01:02:56,400
Speaker 1: They're the number thirty two team in passing. Yeah, and

1154
01:02:56,480 --> 01:03:01,400
Speaker 1: the Bills have been avoiding coming out of that Nickel

1155
01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:03,920
Speaker 1: package on defense. They leave Tarren Johnson on the field

1156
01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:08,400
Speaker 1: no matter what. I'm wondering with the wind expected which

1157
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:10,720
Speaker 1: could impact the passing game even more, and the fact

1158
01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:12,760
Speaker 1: that the Bears are worse than the league at passing.

1159
01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:17,760
Speaker 1: If we finally see some base defense from Leslie Frasier

1160
01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:20,160
Speaker 1: this week with a third linebacker on the field, knowing

1161
01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:23,320
Speaker 1: how good they are running the football and some of

1162
01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:25,440
Speaker 1: the problems the Bill has had last week at stopping

1163
01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:27,400
Speaker 1: the run, what do you think of that? Yeah, bass

1164
01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:29,840
Speaker 1: defense A little bit at least. I think I think

1165
01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:32,640
Speaker 1: you have to go with your base defense, um and

1166
01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:38,680
Speaker 1: have Elam and Trey White. Hey, you got these guys

1167
01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:42,320
Speaker 1: we've been talking about. You got these guys. I mean,

1168
01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 1: I can't name a receiver for Chicago. Well, they had

1169
01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:49,600
Speaker 1: their report, their two receivers or Chase Claypool's doubtful and

1170
01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:54,560
Speaker 1: Brown is out. So I'm telling these two guys here.

1171
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:57,920
Speaker 1: You guys, hey, if we run, if Chicago run sixty plays,

1172
01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:00,160
Speaker 1: you're probably gonna be a man a man from at

1173
01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:02,720
Speaker 1: least forty of them. Yeah, it just it just take

1174
01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:05,200
Speaker 1: away that part of the field and do it. They

1175
01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:07,680
Speaker 1: run the football very well. Yeah, I mean, and we

1176
01:04:07,760 --> 01:04:10,360
Speaker 1: got ran on last week against the Miami Dolphin. Just

1177
01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 1: dare to throw it. Yeah, daren to throw it, man,

1178
01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:16,160
Speaker 1: and I think we can. I'll put Mike, but I'll

1179
01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:18,240
Speaker 1: tell you what with Terren Johnson, I don't know if

1180
01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:20,200
Speaker 1: I'm putting him. I don't know if I'm taking him

1181
01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:23,640
Speaker 1: off the field. I think sometimes he has to give

1182
01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:26,280
Speaker 1: Elam a break or something because I want him on

1183
01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:28,920
Speaker 1: the field all the time. But this may be an opportunity,

1184
01:04:29,040 --> 01:04:32,120
Speaker 1: you know, where his number of plays that he used

1185
01:04:32,160 --> 01:04:34,800
Speaker 1: against Port game comes down. But you got na Kiel

1186
01:04:34,920 --> 01:04:39,160
Speaker 1: Harry for the Bears and Byron Pringle, two guys Byron

1187
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:41,880
Speaker 1: Pringle with formerly with the Chiefs. Nikkil Harry first round

1188
01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:44,600
Speaker 1: draft pick of the Patriots. Yea, So those two guys,

1189
01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:47,320
Speaker 1: you know, I've got a shot at. But if they're

1190
01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:51,120
Speaker 1: they're not even they're not starting for the Bears. So

1191
01:04:52,400 --> 01:04:54,360
Speaker 1: I don't know how they're playing, right, But you don't

1192
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:57,240
Speaker 1: you know that both those guys have some experience. Yeah,

1193
01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:01,000
Speaker 1: I don't want, you know, for me, I don't want

1194
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:03,200
Speaker 1: to do something different than the Bills have been because

1195
01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:05,560
Speaker 1: it's not broken. Their defense is not broken. They gave

1196
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:07,960
Speaker 1: up buck eighty eight last week with some mistackles and

1197
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:10,920
Speaker 1: all that, but they still you know, they won that game. Um,

1198
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:13,440
Speaker 1: I don't want to kill Harry or Byron Pringle to

1199
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:18,320
Speaker 1: burst onto the collective consciousness of America because they got

1200
01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:21,240
Speaker 1: huge had huge days against man to man coverage, you

1201
01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:22,920
Speaker 1: know what I mean, I totally I don't know. I

1202
01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:25,640
Speaker 1: don't know if I want to Leslie Frazier and the

1203
01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:28,400
Speaker 1: defensive staff. Certainly nobody wants to give up one hundred

1204
01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:30,880
Speaker 1: and eighty eight yards rushing, but they gave up less

1205
01:05:30,880 --> 01:05:35,240
Speaker 1: than one hundred and fifty or whatever passing. It's either

1206
01:05:35,320 --> 01:05:37,840
Speaker 1: one where I mean, I don't know. It's not their defense.

1207
01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:39,920
Speaker 1: The Bills defense, while it didn't look great last week,

1208
01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:42,440
Speaker 1: and it's not broken, right, I don't know if I

1209
01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:45,200
Speaker 1: want to throw scrap what they do and they do

1210
01:05:45,280 --> 01:05:48,600
Speaker 1: so well, I don't know if the Bears are that

1211
01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:51,400
Speaker 1: team to I guarantee you we're sitting up there talking

1212
01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:53,880
Speaker 1: about it, and we're probably going to be in a

1213
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:57,040
Speaker 1: situation where, you know what, that's why those guys are defensive.

1214
01:05:57,080 --> 01:06:07,240
Speaker 1: Corey likely has been a head coach before. He's defensive.

1215
01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:09,600
Speaker 1: We may sit I've been talking about anything. I'm pretty

1216
01:06:09,640 --> 01:06:11,360
Speaker 1: sure he's got a good plan, all right. You know

1217
01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:13,360
Speaker 1: he has a good plan because if you look at

1218
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:17,200
Speaker 1: all the games that we played this year, thirteen games

1219
01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:20,680
Speaker 1: we played for at least twelve of them, you probably

1220
01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,920
Speaker 1: could have walked off the field and said we were

1221
01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:26,360
Speaker 1: a better team. Yeah. And when you have that continuous

1222
01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:29,120
Speaker 1: every single even with the injuries that we've had throughout

1223
01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:31,680
Speaker 1: the year, we still look like the better team in

1224
01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:34,560
Speaker 1: every single game that we I say, every single game

1225
01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:37,840
Speaker 1: that we played, we've looked at the best that team

1226
01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:40,360
Speaker 1: right there as a good football team. You know, yeah,

1227
01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:42,480
Speaker 1: they were the better team. They might got three losses,

1228
01:06:42,560 --> 01:06:46,160
Speaker 1: but they're the better football team. Right Third, we know

1229
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:49,480
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame is, you know a bit of

1230
01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:53,160
Speaker 1: a brethren it's a kind of a little fraternity of

1231
01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:55,960
Speaker 1: its own. Yeah, I would imagine it is even more

1232
01:06:56,040 --> 01:07:00,320
Speaker 1: so among Hall of famers at the same position. We

1233
01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:02,960
Speaker 1: lost Franco Harris this week, a Hall of Fame running

1234
01:07:02,960 --> 01:07:05,840
Speaker 1: back much like yourself. I know Earl Campbell was your

1235
01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:09,440
Speaker 1: guy growing up. But what do you remember about Franco

1236
01:07:09,520 --> 01:07:11,720
Speaker 1: as a player as a little kid, and then maybe

1237
01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:14,800
Speaker 1: share any times that you and he had met face

1238
01:07:14,880 --> 01:07:17,640
Speaker 1: to face. Yeah, I mean I remember Franco like, you know,

1239
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:21,600
Speaker 1: like I remember Earl Campbell, You know, I people don't.

1240
01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:25,880
Speaker 1: At Penn State he wore thirty four. He wore thirty

1241
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:27,840
Speaker 1: four and Penn State, and then obviously going to the

1242
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:32,320
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Sailors, and once I followed him because even Earl

1243
01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:34,920
Speaker 1: Cambell was my idol means Joe Green was kind of

1244
01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:37,320
Speaker 1: like my favorite player I love means Joel Green. So

1245
01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:39,360
Speaker 1: when he went to Pittsburgh, I got a chance to

1246
01:07:39,400 --> 01:07:42,960
Speaker 1: see Franco. And the one thing I remember by Franco

1247
01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:46,560
Speaker 1: the hip pads. He wore hip pads a lot, which

1248
01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:49,400
Speaker 1: back then you were kind of told to kind of

1249
01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:54,439
Speaker 1: seeing the high hip pad, right, nobody, nobody, nobody warned those,

1250
01:07:54,480 --> 01:07:56,880
Speaker 1: you know, But he was the one that always wore

1251
01:07:56,960 --> 01:07:59,880
Speaker 1: those and uh obviously you know, coming back and sell

1252
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:05,600
Speaker 1: brighton the fiftieth anniversary for the immaculate reception. And but

1253
01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:07,720
Speaker 1: every time I go to the Hall of Fame, man,

1254
01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:10,200
Speaker 1: if you if you hear a lot of the guys

1255
01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:14,800
Speaker 1: talk about Franco just a great, genuine guy and you

1256
01:08:15,160 --> 01:08:18,479
Speaker 1: that you love to talk to. I mean he walked

1257
01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:22,400
Speaker 1: around with a smile on his face every single day,

1258
01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:25,559
Speaker 1: talk to everybody. I mean he was just and he

1259
01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:28,479
Speaker 1: was so like soft spoken, you know, he was they

1260
01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:31,400
Speaker 1: don't have a hype. He's like, yeah, you know, I

1261
01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:34,439
Speaker 1: kind of be like that, Yeah, great. He was great man,

1262
01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:40,360
Speaker 1: And like he is, like I I love the guy.

1263
01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:43,559
Speaker 1: We talked every single year that we're at the Hall

1264
01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:47,519
Speaker 1: of Fame and uh, man, I'm we're this one hurts.

1265
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:50,960
Speaker 1: I mean all of them do. But this guy here. Man,

1266
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 1: you hear all his teammates and everybody talk about they

1267
01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:57,000
Speaker 1: feel the same way. Now, Tony Dungee, you know who

1268
01:08:57,120 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 1: was a young player on those Steelers teams. You know,

1269
01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:02,320
Speaker 1: Franco was like a veteran player that he looked up to.

1270
01:09:02,479 --> 01:09:05,719
Speaker 1: And you know, not all veteran players back then. We're

1271
01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:08,719
Speaker 1: all that welcoming to rookies or bottom of the roster

1272
01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:12,720
Speaker 1: guys like Tony Dungee was, and Tony's like, Franco could

1273
01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:15,320
Speaker 1: not have been a better person to me, let alone

1274
01:09:15,320 --> 01:09:18,479
Speaker 1: a teammate. Um. But the thing that I kept seeing

1275
01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 1: in people that knew Franco and described him, they just

1276
01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:24,719
Speaker 1: described him. You said soft spoken, I've heard gentle soul

1277
01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:29,080
Speaker 1: is a phrase that's been used a lot, and just

1278
01:09:29,400 --> 01:09:31,840
Speaker 1: like a like a better person than he even was

1279
01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:37,160
Speaker 1: a player exactly. Yeah, yeah, it's um man. You and I.

1280
01:09:37,360 --> 01:09:39,840
Speaker 1: You and I were talking before we came on and

1281
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:43,160
Speaker 1: this Saturday was going to be the fiftieth anniversary of

1282
01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:45,760
Speaker 1: the Immaculate Reception, which we're seeing here on our screen now.

1283
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:52,360
Speaker 1: There is a video that came out of Franco two

1284
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:56,479
Speaker 1: days ago doing a nice, thoughtful interview on site with

1285
01:09:56,520 --> 01:09:58,519
Speaker 1: some of just a stand up interview. They came, hey,

1286
01:09:58,520 --> 01:10:00,320
Speaker 1: can we talk and he said he was. I said

1287
01:10:00,360 --> 01:10:04,000
Speaker 1: it was less than a day before he passed away, right,

1288
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:06,439
Speaker 1: And you and I were talking, like, you know, the

1289
01:10:06,479 --> 01:10:10,840
Speaker 1: Steelers really missed an opportunity. I get it's fifty year

1290
01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:14,800
Speaker 1: anniversary and they're gonna do it anyway, but it just

1291
01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:18,439
Speaker 1: seems like man old man just uh and I'm sure

1292
01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:21,280
Speaker 1: the Steelers have done nothing but and he had a

1293
01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:24,439
Speaker 1: great relationship with the organization. Everybody in Pittsburgh loved him

1294
01:10:24,479 --> 01:10:26,880
Speaker 1: all the whole thing. It just seems like, Wow, we

1295
01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:29,240
Speaker 1: missed out on something. And it's one of those things

1296
01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:33,040
Speaker 1: where it's just extra sad knowing that we were going

1297
01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:37,519
Speaker 1: to get to say hello to him on Saturday once more. Yeah, Yeah,

1298
01:10:37,560 --> 01:10:40,280
Speaker 1: it's truly going to be missed. Um, you know, and

1299
01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:45,479
Speaker 1: that's really hats off to the Rooney family who who

1300
01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:50,240
Speaker 1: picked guys like this that fit their mold of their organization.

1301
01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:54,160
Speaker 1: You know. I mean if you meet every single like Pittsburgh,

1302
01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:57,760
Speaker 1: even Mel Blunt, same way, same me and Joe Green

1303
01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:02,240
Speaker 1: same way. I mean those guys really when you talk

1304
01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:05,799
Speaker 1: about organization and their players, the mold of those guys,

1305
01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:10,160
Speaker 1: that organization has, to me has always been right up

1306
01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:14,000
Speaker 1: their top. And I'm talking with all other major sports too.

1307
01:11:14,720 --> 01:11:19,080
Speaker 1: That organization a Rooney family has really Um, you know,

1308
01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:22,320
Speaker 1: Jimmy Hassel, who owns the Cleveland Browns, now he was

1309
01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:27,240
Speaker 1: part of that organization. Now Jimmy's like, yeah, but it's

1310
01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:30,080
Speaker 1: that organization has done well for a lot of people

1311
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:32,880
Speaker 1: and it shows with the character that these guys have

1312
01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:37,920
Speaker 1: that are in the Hall of Fame. Thoughts sermon on Saturday,

1313
01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:41,320
Speaker 1: how do you kind of see this thing going between

1314
01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:44,040
Speaker 1: the Bills and the Bears. Well, one way I wanted

1315
01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:45,640
Speaker 1: to say, I think we have to come out and

1316
01:11:46,280 --> 01:11:48,880
Speaker 1: score at least ten or fourteen points in the first quarter.

1317
01:11:49,080 --> 01:11:50,600
Speaker 1: I think we have to have a good start. I

1318
01:11:50,600 --> 01:11:52,800
Speaker 1: think we have to have a good start. I really do.

1319
01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:55,080
Speaker 1: I really think that we have to have a good start.

1320
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:58,800
Speaker 1: We have through no, no, no, no, this is time too.

1321
01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:01,920
Speaker 1: You know, hey, that extra rip, you washed that extra

1322
01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:04,080
Speaker 1: film because this is go time from here. And think

1323
01:12:04,120 --> 01:12:06,960
Speaker 1: about the Bills and under Sean McDermott, they've always had

1324
01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:08,920
Speaker 1: games like look at the first Miami game where they

1325
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:10,840
Speaker 1: ran out of time, couldn't get the clock stop, couldn't

1326
01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:12,599
Speaker 1: get that last field goal off to win that game.

1327
01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:15,760
Speaker 1: The Minnesota game where they had three plays that were

1328
01:12:15,800 --> 01:12:19,439
Speaker 1: game stoppers and they went catastrophically against the Bills by

1329
01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:24,920
Speaker 1: their own doing. Josh fumbles, a quarterback sneak um the

1330
01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:28,280
Speaker 1: U the swipe off with Justin Jefferson were almost intercepting

1331
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:31,000
Speaker 1: it and end up helping him catch it. Right, all

1332
01:12:31,040 --> 01:12:34,680
Speaker 1: that stuff. So you have these games under Sean mcdermom,

1333
01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:38,599
Speaker 1: Hail Murray, the thirteen second game, the sixteen point lead

1334
01:12:38,640 --> 01:12:45,400
Speaker 1: to Houston and half, all that stuff, right. This is

1335
01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:47,120
Speaker 1: one of those games where if you want to be

1336
01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:49,960
Speaker 1: a championship caliber game, you punch these guys in them

1337
01:12:49,960 --> 01:12:52,200
Speaker 1: they're three and three and thirty three and eleven or

1338
01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:55,840
Speaker 1: whatever eleven, punch them in the mouth and put them away.

1339
01:12:56,800 --> 01:12:59,040
Speaker 1: This is we're super Bowl caliber. You're not. And here's

1340
01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:01,600
Speaker 1: why think you should go into the locker room and

1341
01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:05,280
Speaker 1: tell those guys that all those things that yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

1342
01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:07,519
Speaker 1: all those things that just make them matter, like you

1343
01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:09,719
Speaker 1: know what task Okay, I'm gonna get you, yeah yeah,

1344
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:13,679
Speaker 1: but yeah it has dear me on it. But no,

1345
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:16,800
Speaker 1: you're exactly right. They're three and eleven. They're not going anywhere.

1346
01:13:16,600 --> 01:13:19,880
Speaker 1: They're two three years away from being where they're where

1347
01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:22,280
Speaker 1: we are right now. It's not going to happen. And

1348
01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:24,400
Speaker 1: that's why I say it has to come out. Whether

1349
01:13:24,479 --> 01:13:27,519
Speaker 1: you want to play what the basic defense for the

1350
01:13:27,560 --> 01:13:30,439
Speaker 1: first time, go right ahead. But whatever it is that

1351
01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:32,600
Speaker 1: they decided to do, they need to stick with that

1352
01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:34,840
Speaker 1: plant and bust them right in the mouth from first

1353
01:13:34,840 --> 01:13:37,479
Speaker 1: play to the last play. All right, we did get

1354
01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:41,040
Speaker 1: the injury report from the Bills. It is out for

1355
01:13:41,240 --> 01:13:45,759
Speaker 1: this game. As we mentioned earlier, Mitch Morrise and Boogie

1356
01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:49,360
Speaker 1: basham out for this game. More still in the concussion protocol,

1357
01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:51,840
Speaker 1: so that means it'll be either Ryan Bates or Greg

1358
01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:54,280
Speaker 1: Van Roten at center. The good news is Bates is

1359
01:13:54,320 --> 01:13:56,719
Speaker 1: back from his ankle injury, so he's back in the lineup.

1360
01:13:57,520 --> 01:14:02,360
Speaker 1: Um questionable, had Oliver and Jordan Phillips. Oliver popped up

1361
01:14:02,360 --> 01:14:06,640
Speaker 1: on the injury report yesterday with a calf injury. He

1362
01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:09,040
Speaker 1: was limited yesterday because I believe that the injury took

1363
01:14:09,040 --> 01:14:12,880
Speaker 1: place in practice yesterday. He did not practice today and

1364
01:14:12,960 --> 01:14:16,840
Speaker 1: it's questionable for Saturday. Jordan Phillips, trying to come back

1365
01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:18,800
Speaker 1: from his shoulder injury that's kept him out the last

1366
01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:22,920
Speaker 1: two games, is questionable. Also, everybody else good to go

1367
01:14:23,439 --> 01:14:25,840
Speaker 1: so and was still a big piece of that though.

1368
01:14:25,880 --> 01:14:28,320
Speaker 1: So Jordan Poyer's ago, he was kind of a question

1369
01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:32,240
Speaker 1: mark earlier in the week. He's good to go among others,

1370
01:14:32,600 --> 01:14:36,200
Speaker 1: including Ryan Bates, so he's back in the lineup. I'll

1371
01:14:36,280 --> 01:14:39,599
Speaker 1: have to see. Yeah, I don't know, I mean so

1372
01:14:39,600 --> 01:14:41,960
Speaker 1: so now it really kind of flips over. Like the

1373
01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:45,639
Speaker 1: guys up front, what if they run three plays, they're

1374
01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:48,920
Speaker 1: probably going to run it twice. So we got we

1375
01:14:49,000 --> 01:14:50,760
Speaker 1: gotta bowl up a little bit more, you know, because

1376
01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:52,439
Speaker 1: they're they're not going I mean, they're not going to

1377
01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:55,800
Speaker 1: drop back and throw it forty times, right, They're not

1378
01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:58,439
Speaker 1: going to do it. That's not them, right, particularly not

1379
01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:00,360
Speaker 1: having seen the Bills give up a bucket eighty eight

1380
01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:06,160
Speaker 1: to the Dolphins last week. Yeah, Brown right here exactly. Yeah. Yeah,

1381
01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:08,120
Speaker 1: And the and I know a lot of Bills fans

1382
01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:10,519
Speaker 1: are saying this on social media. They're worried that the

1383
01:15:10,600 --> 01:15:14,040
Speaker 1: weather actually favors the Bears because all they do is

1384
01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:15,880
Speaker 1: run the dang thing. So if it's windy, they don't

1385
01:15:15,880 --> 01:15:18,120
Speaker 1: give a hoot, you know, think he'll give a hoot

1386
01:15:18,160 --> 01:15:20,120
Speaker 1: if it's forty five mile proud when's they're running it,

1387
01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:24,280
Speaker 1: you know, you know, Josh's arm is getting stronger. Now. Yeah,

1388
01:15:23,720 --> 01:15:26,280
Speaker 1: it's the last last thing for me think about this though.

1389
01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:28,880
Speaker 1: Matt Eberflu's head coach of the Chicago Bears, is the

1390
01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:32,400
Speaker 1: was the defensive coordinator of the Colts when they came

1391
01:15:32,400 --> 01:15:34,880
Speaker 1: in here in twenty twenty one and hung forty one

1392
01:15:34,920 --> 01:15:38,759
Speaker 1: points on the Bills running the football. That's the last

1393
01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:42,040
Speaker 1: time the Bills. That's the last time the Bills really

1394
01:15:42,160 --> 01:15:46,000
Speaker 1: got beat bad by a team. Um, he'll have some

1395
01:15:46,280 --> 01:15:49,800
Speaker 1: game plan notes from that game, no question about it. Yeah,

1396
01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:52,360
Speaker 1: so it'll it'll be interesting to see Thirm. Thanks for

1397

Speaker 1: and Steve, it is time to get to the tweet

1410
01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:47,599
Speaker 1: sheet because we were asking fans today on the Twitter poll,

1411
01:16:47,680 --> 01:16:51,600
Speaker 1: what are your plans for Saturday's game amid the storm

1412
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:55,040
Speaker 1: and the holiday? How are you bouncing balancing your viewing

1413
01:16:55,120 --> 01:16:59,960
Speaker 1: plans of the game Saturday with the holiday family intertwine

1414
01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:02,760
Speaker 1: mining in the whole weekend thing. How is it all

1415
01:17:02,800 --> 01:17:05,679
Speaker 1: working for you? So we go to the tweet sheet,

1416
01:17:05,840 --> 01:17:09,000
Speaker 1: presented as always by Coregan Moving Systems, the official moving

1417
01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:13,720
Speaker 1: equipment company of the Buffalo Bills, and we begin with

1418
01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:19,920
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills Biz say that five times, fast, family, friends, football,

1419
01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:25,120
Speaker 1: fun festivities, Merry Christmas, and happy Holidays to you guys

1420
01:17:25,160 --> 01:17:27,960
Speaker 1: at one Bills Live Well, thank you for the well wishes.

1421
01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:31,720
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas to you as well. I think people are

1422
01:17:32,800 --> 01:17:34,560
Speaker 1: they're making a full weekend out of it. You know,

1423
01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:39,520
Speaker 1: most most families occasionally you'll do the Christmas Eve thing altogether,

1424
01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:44,679
Speaker 1: or sometimes if both sets of parents are in town,

1425
01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:49,240
Speaker 1: maybe you do Christmas Eve night with one set of

1426
01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:52,640
Speaker 1: parents and then Christmas Day with the other set, that

1427
01:17:52,760 --> 01:17:56,040
Speaker 1: kind of thing. But because the Bills game is on Saturday,

1428
01:17:56,880 --> 01:17:58,920
Speaker 1: this sounds like it could be a forty eight hour

1429
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:02,120
Speaker 1: affair for most many families in Western New York. I think,

1430
01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:06,200
Speaker 1: and the storm and all of the weather stuff aside,

1431
01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:13,320
Speaker 1: really seems like an just an outstanding weekend, you know,

1432
01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:18,280
Speaker 1: just relaxing on Saturday, watching the bills Sunday and all

1433
01:18:18,320 --> 01:18:20,839
Speaker 1: the stuff you do for the holidays with the family

1434
01:18:20,880 --> 01:18:24,440
Speaker 1: and the food and the fact that it's a weekend anyway,

1435
01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 1: and it's oh, it's just really really just sets up

1436
01:18:30,280 --> 01:18:36,160
Speaker 1: perfectly for having fun with and just lazy, fat fun.

1437
01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:39,040
Speaker 1: That's what I think. I just want to be fat.

1438
01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:42,880
Speaker 1: I see it and shirt and Steve Tasker's future and

1439
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:48,160
Speaker 1: lazy fat fun, lazy fat fun and sassy on the couch,

1440
01:18:48,640 --> 01:18:52,240
Speaker 1: all right, and you know, just you know, grandkids running

1441
01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:55,680
Speaker 1: around all that stuff. Yeah, it's gonna be a long weekend. Uh,

1442
01:18:57,120 --> 01:19:00,320
Speaker 1: and throw in the weather where you may be, you know,

1443
01:19:00,400 --> 01:19:02,599
Speaker 1: just have you know you're locking the poker down. Yeah,

1444
01:19:02,600 --> 01:19:04,880
Speaker 1: you're locking the doors, and you know the lights go

1445
01:19:04,920 --> 01:19:07,799
Speaker 1: out if the light can you imagine if the power

1446
01:19:07,840 --> 01:19:11,920
Speaker 1: goes out at one o'clock on Saturday. Oh yeah, you

1447
01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:15,080
Speaker 1: can't even watch the game. I didn't think about that.

1448
01:19:16,439 --> 01:19:18,960
Speaker 1: I hadn't thought about that until I just said it. Um,

1449
01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:23,519
Speaker 1: this is where NFL plus on your phone. Yeah, I

1450
01:19:23,520 --> 01:19:25,560
Speaker 1: got that. Now you're gonna need cell towers to be

1451
01:19:25,640 --> 01:19:28,880
Speaker 1: up and running for that to happen, which you know,

1452
01:19:30,040 --> 01:19:31,840
Speaker 1: that's a hard Maybe might all have a I might

1453
01:19:31,880 --> 01:19:35,200
Speaker 1: have to have a dry run with that, if you

1454
01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:39,840
Speaker 1: know what I mean, test it today at home. Make

1455
01:19:39,880 --> 01:19:42,160
Speaker 1: sure I got the NFL plus all right, everybody, and

1456
01:19:42,800 --> 01:19:45,000
Speaker 1: you got a casting on a TV, right, everybody, We've

1457
01:19:45,040 --> 01:19:47,519
Speaker 1: got a drill. Can you do that? You gotta cast

1458
01:19:47,520 --> 01:19:50,240
Speaker 1: it on your TV from your phone. Well, yeah, but

1459
01:19:50,280 --> 01:19:54,120
Speaker 1: you need internet connectivity to do that. You need wireless. Yeah,

1460
01:19:54,160 --> 01:19:56,040
Speaker 1: but if you're running right, right, But if you don't

1461
01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:58,360
Speaker 1: have power. But if you got a cell service, you

1462
01:19:58,360 --> 01:20:00,920
Speaker 1: can do it through the cell service. You're debt because

1463
01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:03,760
Speaker 1: your TV runs on wireless. Yeah, but you can pull

1464
01:20:03,840 --> 01:20:06,360
Speaker 1: it in signals. You can bluetooth it from your phone,

1465
01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:11,280
Speaker 1: but doesn't I don't know if bluetooth requires. I don't know.

1466
01:20:11,960 --> 01:20:16,479
Speaker 1: Bluetooth doesn't require. I am not technologically advanced enough to

1467
01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:19,759
Speaker 1: know what you can and cannot get away with without

1468
01:20:19,760 --> 01:20:23,440
Speaker 1: electric either. Hints. I'm trying to do a dry run. Yeah,

1469
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:26,160
Speaker 1: I can you. Yeah, you need power to put your

1470
01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:29,200
Speaker 1: TV on. You need power to put your not gonna

1471
01:20:29,240 --> 01:20:34,400
Speaker 1: cast it? If yeah, I did skip a step, I'll admit.

1472
01:20:35,360 --> 01:20:37,640
Speaker 1: Uh do me a favor. If you do run that

1473
01:20:37,720 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 1: drill in your house, please have somebody film it, because

1474
01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:42,759
Speaker 1: I think that could be a fantastic segment watching you

1475
01:20:43,320 --> 01:20:47,599
Speaker 1: walk through the steps of the technological things that need

1476
01:20:47,640 --> 01:20:49,519
Speaker 1: to be done in the event of a power outer

1477
01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:52,439
Speaker 1: is to get the game on some kind of device,

1478
01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:55,040
Speaker 1: just something I need. You can film it, fine, but

1479
01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:57,080
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. When I'm successful, I'm going to

1480
01:20:57,120 --> 01:21:00,479
Speaker 1: embarrass you and myself with my celebrate. I would happily

1481
01:21:00,520 --> 01:21:07,439
Speaker 1: take that best. The FCC will be calling us, Jake,

1482
01:21:07,520 --> 01:21:10,000
Speaker 1: pull that off. I will absolutely, Oh you could stick it.

1483
01:21:10,040 --> 01:21:13,479
Speaker 1: I'll eat craw on that, yeah, which means I basically

1484
01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:16,640
Speaker 1: have zero faith in you pulling that off. Plans for

1485
01:21:16,680 --> 01:21:21,200
Speaker 1: Saturday with the storm in the holiday, Jake says, getting frostbite,

1486
01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:23,880
Speaker 1: it sold your field. Good for you. Let go, Jake.

1487
01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:28,920
Speaker 1: Please layer up and be careful, Okay, do not do

1488
01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:32,960
Speaker 1: not take wind chills lightly, especially the ones they're forecasting

1489
01:21:32,960 --> 01:21:34,559
Speaker 1: for this thing. If you're gonna be standing out there

1490
01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:37,880
Speaker 1: like this is a seven eight layer ya, this is

1491
01:21:38,880 --> 01:21:41,800
Speaker 1: even cover your whole face, like you can't leave skin

1492
01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:45,120
Speaker 1: expo holds barred. Put everything you got. You can't put

1493
01:21:45,120 --> 01:21:47,280
Speaker 1: it on if you don't take it with you. If

1494
01:21:47,280 --> 01:21:50,120
Speaker 1: it's got batteries and it keeps you warm, make sure

1495
01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:53,000
Speaker 1: you get batteries for it. Everything's gotta be all systems

1496
01:21:53,080 --> 01:21:55,040
Speaker 1: go when you're out in this, because here's the thing

1497
01:21:55,080 --> 01:21:56,680
Speaker 1: it's gonna be. You're gonna be out there and it's

1498
01:21:56,720 --> 01:22:00,200
Speaker 1: gonna be a five hour ordeal. One an hour getting in,

1499
01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:03,000
Speaker 1: three hours of the game, and an hour getting out,

1500
01:22:03,520 --> 01:22:05,240
Speaker 1: and you got to be ready for it because it's

1501
01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:11,720
Speaker 1: not it's unrelenting, unrelenting Dave. Dave says, well, I was

1502
01:22:11,760 --> 01:22:14,519
Speaker 1: supposed to fly out Saturday morning to Chicago and fly

1503
01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:17,639
Speaker 1: back Saturday night. That's not looking good. Not an option

1504
01:22:17,720 --> 01:22:20,760
Speaker 1: to be stuck in Chicago for Christmas. My siblings would

1505
01:22:20,840 --> 01:22:23,840
Speaker 1: not be pleased. Yeah, sorry, it's the thing. Yeah, yeah, sorry,

1506
01:22:23,880 --> 01:22:27,160
Speaker 1: you're probably watching it on TV the Dave. Yeah, all,

1507
01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:29,160
Speaker 1: I mean think about it. All the plans are up

1508
01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:31,800
Speaker 1: in the air right now, and a lot of it

1509
01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:35,080
Speaker 1: has to do with travel, no question. Uh. I mean

1510
01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:37,559
Speaker 1: we both have family issues, people coming in from out

1511
01:22:37,600 --> 01:22:40,920
Speaker 1: of town or getting stuck here or whatever, or not

1512
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:44,760
Speaker 1: even getting here. Yeah. So yeah, it's that's part of

1513
01:22:45,080 --> 01:22:46,960
Speaker 1: why we put this question out and want to hear

1514
01:22:47,040 --> 01:22:50,679
Speaker 1: how people were handling it because there's so many there's

1515
01:22:50,720 --> 01:22:53,479
Speaker 1: this unknown thing with the weather, and it's also a

1516
01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:57,439
Speaker 1: unique weekend with the holiday in the game. Steve on

1517
01:22:57,520 --> 01:23:00,560
Speaker 1: the tweet sheet says, the prime ribro will go in

1518
01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:03,479
Speaker 1: the pellet grill kick off and dinner will follow a

1519
01:23:03,720 --> 01:23:08,800
Speaker 1: Bill's victory. Steve's kind of saying that, like, this is

1520
01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:11,360
Speaker 1: how it will go, and we will all accept it

1521
01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:16,000
Speaker 1: as truth. I like where your head's at. Patrick says, crazy,

1522
01:23:16,080 --> 01:23:18,600
Speaker 1: they have a name for this storm. They're calling it

1523
01:23:18,760 --> 01:23:22,280
Speaker 1: winter Storm Elliott. It was officially my mortal enemy. As

1524
01:23:22,320 --> 01:23:25,400
Speaker 1: of right now. My plans for the game stay warm,

1525
01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:28,960
Speaker 1: eating smoked prime rib. There's another prime rib guy with

1526
01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:33,080
Speaker 1: master grill, rub roasted garlic potatoes and watching our bills

1527
01:23:33,120 --> 01:23:36,920
Speaker 1: bring home the twelfth dub of the season. What's up

1528
01:23:36,960 --> 01:23:40,559
Speaker 1: with the prime rib? Is that a common Christmas dinner?

1529
01:23:40,640 --> 01:23:43,640
Speaker 1: I guess it is? It is? I guess what did

1530
01:23:44,040 --> 01:23:46,360
Speaker 1: your family usually have on Christmas dinner growing up? Do

1531
01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:48,560
Speaker 1: you remember? Was it the same thing every year? No?

1532
01:23:48,760 --> 01:23:52,320
Speaker 1: I think it was pig I think we ate ham ham, Yeah,

1533
01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:55,519
Speaker 1: Christmas Ham, Christmas. I've heard Christmas ham all lots more

1534
01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:59,719
Speaker 1: than prime right, and then the spiral spiral honey baked

1535
01:24:00,160 --> 01:24:02,640
Speaker 1: one honey bag all that. Yeah, I think that's I

1536
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:05,439
Speaker 1: think that's what we did. Yeah, I'm pretty sure we'd

1537
01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:08,720
Speaker 1: have ham now with the first course of lasagna. Yeah,

1538
01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:12,360
Speaker 1: but since I've been married, when since we've been married,

1539
01:24:12,760 --> 01:24:18,880
Speaker 1: we've tinkered with other things too, like lamb and and

1540
01:24:19,080 --> 01:24:21,280
Speaker 1: bee from Prime Rib and stuff like that too. So yeah,

1541
01:24:21,280 --> 01:24:22,760
Speaker 1: I think one of the things that reason we're doing

1542
01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:25,720
Speaker 1: something different this year. I'm not supposed to say what

1543
01:24:25,720 --> 01:24:28,800
Speaker 1: because it's supposed to be surprised. So we're doing something

1544
01:24:28,840 --> 01:24:31,160
Speaker 1: different this year because you know, like you said, we

1545
01:24:31,280 --> 01:24:34,559
Speaker 1: got local boys with local in laws, so we share.

1546
01:24:34,760 --> 01:24:37,320
Speaker 1: All of those guys are all doing like everything the

1547
01:24:37,400 --> 01:24:41,040
Speaker 1: Prime Rib, so we don't want to have more Prime Rib, right,

1548
01:24:41,160 --> 01:24:44,360
Speaker 1: So we're doing something different. Okay, good for you, JT.

1549
01:24:44,760 --> 01:24:48,000
Speaker 1: With the last submission here on the tweet sheet, get

1550
01:24:48,160 --> 01:24:52,360
Speaker 1: gas for the snowblower, grab a thirty la bat. I

1551
01:24:52,560 --> 01:24:55,000
Speaker 1: can't make chili because I can't find any chili sauce.

1552
01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:57,560
Speaker 1: I'm with you, JT. So I know what everybody in

1553
01:24:57,640 --> 01:25:00,519

Speaker 1: there with chili. Well for it is. It is what

1559
01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:24,479
Speaker 1: old timers in Buffalo would call a Jimmy Griffin weekend.

1560
01:25:25,720 --> 01:25:27,759
Speaker 1: You know, the former mayor of the city of Buffalo,

1561
01:25:27,920 --> 01:25:30,400
Speaker 1: during the blizzard of seventy seven, basically told everybody to

1562
01:25:30,439 --> 01:25:33,080
Speaker 1: stay home and have a six pack. If there was

1563
01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:35,280
Speaker 1: ever another weekend like that to do it, it might

1564
01:25:35,360 --> 01:25:39,479
Speaker 1: be this weekend right here. So just stay indoors, enjoy

1565
01:25:39,600 --> 01:25:42,639
Speaker 1: the Bills game on Saturday. Hopefully they treat you right

1566
01:25:42,680 --> 01:25:44,960
Speaker 1: with a victory as a Christmas present under the tree,

1567
01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:47,240
Speaker 1: and then you just have your holiday with your family.

Speaker 1: other out there. I mean, we're all in it together.

1585
01:27:03,680 --> 01:27:07,080
Speaker 1: And and this is uh, you know we people joke about,

1586
01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:09,479
Speaker 1: you know, the weather and snow, yet this is uh,

1587
01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:11,840
Speaker 1: this is a storm that's not just here. I mean

1588
01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:14,000
Speaker 1: it's in Chicago. It's gonna be in Boston, It's going

1589
01:27:14,080 --> 01:27:15,439
Speaker 1: to be in New York. It's gonna come all the

1590
01:27:15,479 --> 01:27:19,200
Speaker 1: way across the Northeast. Uh, starting I guess in Chicago

1591
01:27:19,720 --> 01:27:25,040
Speaker 1: this weekend. So yeah, get ready for it, and make

1592
01:27:25,080 --> 01:27:27,000
Speaker 1: sure you look out for your neighbors and your friends,

1593
01:27:27,560 --> 01:27:30,720
Speaker 1: keep track of it. Get ready for it. It's you know,

1594
01:27:31,439 --> 01:27:33,960
Speaker 1: after it's over, you always have these sentimental feelings of

1595
01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:35,400
Speaker 1: how great it was, like even a month and a

1596
01:27:35,439 --> 01:27:38,840
Speaker 1: half ago, I had, you know, fifteen people stuck at

1597
01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:41,400
Speaker 1: my house over the Cleveland Browns game weekend when it

1598
01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:43,280
Speaker 1: got moved to Detroit. They all came in for the

1599
01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:46,920
Speaker 1: game that wasn't here and we're stuck with three feet

1600
01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:51,840
Speaker 1: of snow. So it seems okay now, but it wasn't

1601
01:27:51,880 --> 01:27:53,360
Speaker 1: all it didn't didn't seem like it was gonna be

1602
01:27:53,360 --> 01:27:56,360
Speaker 1: all that great for a minute, right, So it'll be

1603
01:27:56,560 --> 01:27:58,960
Speaker 1: interesting to keep your ear to the ground with the weather.

1604
01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:04,600
Speaker 1: And we're going to be back. We'll here tomorrow and

1605
01:28:04,840 --> 01:28:08,840
Speaker 1: hopefully you'll be on with us and everything goes well

1606
01:28:08,880 --> 01:28:13,240
Speaker 1: with your trip to Chicago. Yeah, I mean, I'm anticipating,

1607
01:28:13,320 --> 01:28:17,040
Speaker 1: you know, being shacked up in a hotel should be

1608
01:28:17,080 --> 01:28:18,960
Speaker 1: able to get a good signal out so we can

1609
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:23,160
Speaker 1: broadcast together on Friday, and we remind you for Friday's

1610
01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:26,120
Speaker 1: edition of the show, we will have, as we do

1611
01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:29,120
Speaker 1: every week, Greg Cosell to talk XS and o's. We'll

1612
01:28:29,160 --> 01:28:32,160
Speaker 1: get an in depth perspective from him on what has

1613
01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:35,040
Speaker 1: made Justin Fields effective both in the design run game

1614
01:28:35,640 --> 01:28:39,040
Speaker 1: and the improvisational run game. The other thing we need

1615
01:28:39,120 --> 01:28:42,600
Speaker 1: to pass along to you is the latest episode of

1616
01:28:42,800 --> 01:28:46,680
Speaker 1: Bills by the Numbers, our weekly podcast is out. It's

1617
01:28:46,680 --> 01:28:49,000
Speaker 1: a little bit different than our daily show One Bills Live.

1618
01:28:49,120 --> 01:28:52,240
Speaker 1: We kind of chop up a statistical thing that we

1619
01:28:52,400 --> 01:28:54,880
Speaker 1: focus on in a given week. This week it's on

1620
01:28:55,080 --> 01:28:57,960
Speaker 1: how and why there are so many close games in

1621
01:28:58,040 --> 01:29:00,240
Speaker 1: the NFL this year. It's on a record breaking pace

1622
01:29:00,320 --> 01:29:03,800
Speaker 1: in NFL history. And we discuss something that maybe you

1623
01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:08,080
Speaker 1: don't hear all that much about, the four point plays

1624
01:29:08,120 --> 01:29:10,320
Speaker 1: when the defense gets a third down stop in the

1625
01:29:10,400 --> 01:29:13,519
Speaker 1: red zone and turns the potential touchdown for the opponent

1626
01:29:13,600 --> 01:29:16,680
Speaker 1: into just a field goal, thereby taking four points off

1627
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:18,639
Speaker 1: the board. Bills are doing pretty good in that category.

1628
01:29:18,680 --> 01:29:21,000
Speaker 1: Steve and I chop it up on the podcast this week. Yeah,

1629
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:23,360
Speaker 1: I'm good stuff, Brannie, travel safe. We'll talk to you tomorrow,

1630
01:29:23,400 --> 01:29:25,960
Speaker 1: hopefully that's the plan, and we'll get back at it

1631
01:29:26,080 --> 01:29:28,120
Speaker 1: and get ready for the game. Sounds good to me.

1632
01:29:28,280 --> 01:29:30,719
Speaker 1: Greg cosal on with us tomorrow. We'll see at one pm.
