What an experience. And 48 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 3: Michelle is such a great sport being out there in 49 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 3: front of so many people, getting a chance to kick 50 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 3: a field goal. Hey, that's a moment that a lot 51 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 3: of people would be like, No, I could not do this. 52 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 3: I cannot be seeing out in front of thousands of people. 53 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 2: Oh, what are you worried about? You know, by the 54 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: time the third quarter kicks off, people won't even remember 55 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 2: what you did, how you kicked. So I'm glad she 56 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 2: was a good sport about the whole thing. That was 57 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 2: kind of fun to watch unfold. There. We do want 58 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 2: to let you know about our chock full schedule today 59 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 2: before we kind of get into Bill's news and notes, 60 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 2: including some injury updates along with around the NFL.

So that's the slate. 75 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: But this slate also involves you at eight h three 76 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 2: oh five fifty one eighty eight five fifty two, five 77 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 2: fifty the numbers to join us. Any question under the 78 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: sun about the Bills Ravens game this weekend. The Bills 79 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 2: in general fire them off at us and we'll do 80 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 2: our best to answer those as quickly as possible as 81 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 2: we move through the course of the show. But Maddie 82 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 2: let's get to bills. Practice updates presented by Lee comm 83 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 2: you're Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine coach McDermott on 84 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 2: WGR here in Buffalo earlier today on the Extra Point Show, 85 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 2: basically said Alec Anderson Ray Davis, who are both limited 86 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: in practice Thursday, will both practice today again, but Ray 87 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 2: remains in concussion protocol. He did say Alec Anderson trending 88 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 2: in the right direction, so that was good to hear. 89 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 2: With his calf injury. He called him day to day 90 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 2: on Monday, but he's practiced all week, albeit in a 91 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 2: limited capacity. Knowing Alec Anderson's demeanor, it might take a 92 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 2: pack of wild dogs to keep him from going on 93 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 2: the field Sunday, I would say. 94 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely, Alec Anderson is not going to be stopped 95 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 3: in terms of trying to getting out of the field 96 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 3: or not getting out of the field for a divisional ROUNDCLP. 97 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: I'd be surprissed. 98 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 3: I would be yeah, I would be expecting that he's 99 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:31,799 Speaker 3: going to be out there. I spoke with him after 100 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 3: practice yesterday and he seems in good spirits and ready 101 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 3: to go for this one. I couldn't imagine missing out 102 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 3: on using him a part of the offense. Yeah, in 103 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 3: Sunday's matchup, he's been such a big part of the 104 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 3: offensive line going up against a bigger defensive line that 105 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 3: the Baltimore Ravens have. Of course, Buffalo's offensive line has 106 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 3: other guys that they can use in case Alec Anderson 107 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 3: is not ready to go. But I think just the 108 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 3: chemistry that that group has formed together with Alec Anderson 109 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 3: this season is important in a divisional round matchup. 110 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. And if you look at last week's game against Denver, 111 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 2: when the Bills played bullyball against that Broncos front, they 112 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 2: used their jumbo package on twenty two percent of their snaps. 113 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 2: It was a season high this year in terms of 114 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 2: their usage of Alec Anderson as the sixth offensive lineman. 115 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 2: Do they do the same thing this week. We'll have 116 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 2: to wait and see if they want to try to 117 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 2: mash with the Ravens, who, to your point, do have 118 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 2: a bigger front than Denver does. So we'll see if 119 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 2: that core. I think it'll be part of the game plan. 120 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 2: How big, I think is the question here. So that's 121 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 2: kind of the nuts and bolts of the Bills injury report. 122 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: Brandon Codrington in case he hadn't heard, is good to go. 123 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 2: So he will return to the lineup as a returner, 124 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 2: which I think is good for two reasons. Number One, 125 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 2: you don't have to necessarily worry like how is that 126 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: part of the game gonna look with our regular guy 127 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 2: not in there. Although Khalilshakir was outstanding last week, even 128 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 2: at a twenty three yard return in that game when 129 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 2: he made like five or six guys missed, that was amazing. 130 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 2: But having Codrington back, I think settles that unit down 131 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 2: number one and then number two. It lets Khalil focus 132 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: just on offense because I talked to Steve about this, 133 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 2: who obviously has a little bit of special teams experience, 134 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,679 Speaker 2: and he was telling me, when you have a receiver 135 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 2: that has to do double duty as a returner, it 136 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 2: takes away from his preparation on offense. It's one more 137 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 2: thing that he has to spend time getting ready for 138 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 2: during the week. For example, last week, Khalil went over 139 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 2: to the stadium to get used to the conditions in 140 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 2: there and was, you know, catching punts, you know for 141 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 2: two three days out of the practice week. Well, those 142 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 2: were all reps he's not getting with the offense. When 143 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 2: he goes over there to do that. 144 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 3: I think having Kolol Shakir focus entirely on offense this 145 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 3: week and on his role as a part of the 146 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 3: receiver's room is important for this one. If something is 147 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 3: taking away from your preparation and it rightfully so it 148 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 3: did last week. Kolol Shakir needed to be there to 149 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 3: step in for Brandon Codrington. But the fact that he 150 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 3: doesn't have to do that this week, I think says 151 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 3: a lot. Because of the Baltimore Ravens defense, Khali Shakir 152 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 3: could see a big, big uptick in terms of how 153 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 3: he's used, where he's targeted, how much he's targeted. This 154 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 3: Ravens defense does allow some yards in the middle of 155 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 3: the field. 156 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think the two linebackers, whether it's Simpson 157 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 2: or whether it's Harrison along with Rokwan Smith, coverage is 158 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 2: not their strong suit. Great in the run front coverage 159 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 2: not their strong suits. So if they leave both of 160 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 2: them on the field, or just even one on the 161 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 2: field and some of the sub packages, I expect the 162 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 2: Bills to go right at them. Whether it's tight ends 163 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 2: whether it is Shakir, that they can match up on 164 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 2: one of them. Somehow someway or whether it's the backs, 165 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 2: I do see Joe Brady going right after them because 166 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 2: it's one of the few deficiencies in this Baltimore Ravens defense, 167 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 2: which looks pretty complete front to back with some of 168 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 2: the improvements they've made through the course of the season. 169 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: Let's go around the NFL presented by Kalida Health, the 170 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 2: official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills, and we'll bring 171 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 2: you the Ravens injury news first. And it's not good 172 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: for Baltimore wide receivers. A Flowers not practicing again today. 173 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 2: He has not practiced all week due to that sprained 174 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: LCL he suffered back in Week eighteen against the Browns. 175 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 2: And look are the Ravens destitute without him? No, but 176 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 2: it is a significant loss here, Matti. We're talking about 177 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 2: the team's leading receiver in terms of receptions and receiving yards. 178 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 3: Buffalo is able to shut Zay Flowers down in Week 179 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 3: four when they faced him the first time, he was 180 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,559 Speaker 3: targeted twice, just caught one catch for ten receiving yards. 181 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 3: So you don't have to worry about one guy who 182 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 3: might not be a part of the lineup. I think 183 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 3: that makes game planning just a little bit easier of Hey, 184 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 3: we don't have to worry about the leading receiver. Now, 185 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 3: Justice Hill did go off when Buffalo faced them in 186 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 3: Week four, So you have an offense in the Ravens 187 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,839 Speaker 3: where similar to the Bills, you have different guys who 188 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 3: can go off each week in terms of guys catching 189 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 3: the football, whether it's Isaiah Likely, Justice Hill, Zay Flowers, 190 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,199 Speaker 3: Mark Andrews in the red zone. So to know, let's 191 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 3: take one person out of the equation, I think helps 192 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 3: Buffalo's to Yeah. 193 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: I mean, Andrews led the league with eleven red zone touchdowns, 194 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 2: every one of his receiving touchdowns in the red zone. 195 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 2: Rashad Bateman has five receiving touchdowns in his last five games. 196 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 2: So you've got guys elsewhere in the passing game that 197 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 2: can produce for Baltimore. But not having Flowers is at 198 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 2: least one less thing to worry about, and it certainly 199 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 2: seems to be trending that way. I mean, I know 200 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 2: John Harbaugh said earlier in the week say Flowers doesn't 201 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 2: have to practice to be up and playing on game day, 202 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 2: But I really think that's a tough spot to put 203 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 2: a receiver in, especially knowing the uptick in intensity of 204 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 2: play that playoff games have. He hasn't practiced all week, 205 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 2: and now you're gonna throw him out there in that 206 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 2: That's kind of a tough environment to get dropped into 207 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 2: with no practice through the course of the week. I'd 208 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: be surprised if Harbaugh is not the kind of coach 209 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 2: that would put his play in that kind of a situation. 210 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 2: You're almost setting him up to fail. 211 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 3: And if you're dealing with the knee injury, you think 212 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,599 Speaker 3: about the playing surface on Sunday night. It's gonna be 213 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 3: a very. 214 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: Cold game, and field's gonna be hard. 215 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 3: Playing on turf, the field's gonna be hard. You might 216 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 3: want to protect your player because you're hoping, hey, we're 217 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 3: gonna make it through to the AFC Championship game. 218 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, looking at the other game on Saturday in the 219 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 2: AFC Chiefs Texans, the Chiefs plan to activate their starting 220 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 2: quarterback Jalen Watson off of injured reserve and play him 221 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 2: against Houston on Saturday. Watson had been on injured reserve. 222 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 2: He's one of their starting outside corners. They've had to 223 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 2: shuffle the deck on the back end since he's been out. 224 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 2: Although Josh Williams has done a nice job in his absence, 225 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 2: but at times they had to put Trent McDuffie their 226 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 2: nickel corner outside to kind of stem the tide a 227 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 2: little bit when they were struggling. So getting Watson back 228 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 2: is huge, and I don't know, maybe they feel knock 229 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 2: the rust off this week. Hope you win the game 230 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 2: and beat Houston, and then you know he's that much 231 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 2: more ready for the AFC title game if in fact 232 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 2: the Chiefs win, which I think a lot of people 233 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 2: are expecting. 234 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I would say so. 235 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 2: So he fractured his ankle like October first, so that's 236 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 2: not an easy injury to come back from. And the 237 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 2: word is they will monitor how he's doing. He may 238 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 2: be on a pitch count. It's kind of like a 239 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 2: let's see how he does kind of thing. And I 240 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 2: don't think they're going to want to put him through 241 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 2: sixty five snaps, So maybe he only plays thirty Josh 242 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 2: Williams plays the other thirty. We'll have to see how 243 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 2: that goes when they play on Saturday. Meanwhile, Texan's running 244 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 2: back Joe Mixon popped up on the injury report with 245 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 2: an ankle injury. That was a little unexpected. Did not 246 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 2: practice yesterday, and then they're starting middle linebacker as he's 247 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 2: al Shier had the knee injury that he's been fighting through. 248 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 2: They're both listed as questionable for Saturday's game at Kansas City. Again. 249 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 2: I think, you know, you need a team of wild 250 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 2: horses to keep al Shier off the field, But I 251 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 2: don't know if he's going to be one hundred percent. 252 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 2: The word on Mixon is relatively mild ankle injury. He's 253 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 2: not gonna miss that game. 254 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 3: It's the divisional round of the playoffs. 255 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 2: Just knowing Joe Mixon, I don't. 256 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 3: See the fact that the Texans won last week that 257 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 3: they're gonna want to put all the bodies on the 258 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 3: field to try and beat the Chiefs. 259 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 2: And Mixing is really kind of their emotional leader on offense. 260 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 2: You know, Stroud is still just a second year player. 261 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 2: Yes he's a captain, but he's not. He's kind of 262 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 2: like Josh was in his second year. Guys look to 263 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 2: Josh to make plays, but he wasn't that vocal leader 264 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 2: that he is now. I think that's kind of where 265 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 2: Stroud is and his infancy is an NFL quarterback, so 266 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 2: mixing is pretty important from a leadership standpoint. On that 267 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 2: offensive side of the ball. As he goes, they often 268 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 2: go rams edge rusher and defensive Rookie of the Year 269 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 2: candidate Jared Reverse stepped in it a little bit. Did 270 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 2: you see this? This was hilarious. So he's doing an 271 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:52,560 Speaker 2: interview with the LA Times yesterday and he's asked about 272 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 2: Eagles fans and just unsolicited says, quote, I hate Eagles fans. 273 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 2: They're so annoying. I hate Eagles fans. And this is 274 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 2: a little bit ironic because Verse actually went to high 275 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 2: school in the Philadelphia area in blooming in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania 276 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 2: for three years. But his disdain for Eagles fans comes 277 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 2: from the game back in Week twelve, which was actually 278 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 2: played at SOFI Stadium, But there were Eagles fans that 279 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 2: traveled and they were giving him the business from the 280 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: word go, and he hated it. He's hated them ever 281 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 2: since then. He's like, what I do to these people? 282 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 2: What are they yelling at me for? He said, I 283 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: didn't do anything to them. As my first time playing. 284 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 2: I hate Eagles fans. When I see that green and white, 285 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 2: I hate it. I actually get upset I actually genuinely 286 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 2: get hot. I think his feelings are pretty clear. Here's 287 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 2: the problem, mammy. This game's in Philadelphia. Yeah, they're gonna 288 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 2: skewer that kid. 289 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 4: I don't. 290 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 2: I'm just telling you there's gonna be signs. There may 291 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 2: even be a verse dummy. You know that they're using 292 00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 2: as a voodoo dollar a punching bag. It's I've been Philadelphia, 293 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 2: I've been to games there. It's it's not gonna be 294 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 2: pretty because this is going to be interpreted by Eagles 295 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 2: fans as a calling out, Oh you've called you don't 296 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 2: like it, We're gonna double down now. So it's it's 297 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 2: not gonna be pretty. 298 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 3: Verse, open up a can of worms with and Eagles 299 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 3: fans are are feeling invited to to come to the 300 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 3: table and say, oh, you said this, watch over we're 301 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 3: gonna do on site. 302 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 2: Yes, it's gonna be something I am expecting even worse 303 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 2: than what he experienced at so far with the spattering 304 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 2: of Eagles fans got coming that were there. You'll learn 305 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 2: not to do that again. Speaking of the Eagles, some 306 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 2: coaching cycle news their offensive coordinator Kellen Moore will be 307 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: interviewing with the Cowboys and Jaguars today. Those will be 308 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 2: virtual interviews since they have a game this weekend. Obviously, 309 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 2: Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monkhin completed his head coaching interview 310 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 2: with the Jaguars late yesterday. He's got another interview today 311 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 2: with the Chicago Bears, presumably when his work day with 312 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 2: the Ravens is over with, and again these interviews take 313 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 2: place virtually. Monkin did it rest the Baltimore media yesterday. 314 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 2: Was asked about he said, look, this is less than ideal. 315 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 2: If they had a better way to do it, I'm 316 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 2: sure we'd be doing it already. But having led the 317 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 2: league's number one offense, he is obviously a coach in demand. 318 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 2: Be interesting to see if he lands anywhere. Commander's OC 319 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 2: Cliff Kingsbury has decided to wait on any potential head 320 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 2: coaching interviews until Washington's playoff run ends. He wants to 321 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 2: fully focus on the Lions this week and if they 322 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 2: win the next round. I don't know how many people 323 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 2: are giving the Commanders a huge shot at winning in 324 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 2: Detroit against the Lions, who come off of last week 325 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 2: rested with the bye. But stranger things have happened. We'll 326 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 2: see one thing you know Washington can do is score, 327 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 2: so that could be an entertaining, high scoring game. But yeah, 328 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 2: Kingsburys season could be over as soon as this weekend, 329 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 2: and then Illy Ga able an interview with whoever he 330 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 2: wants at that point. But if for some reason Washington 331 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 2: pulls off this unbelievable upset, I think the chances are 332 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 2: reduced that he's even going to be a head coach 333 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,679 Speaker 2: anywhere because these jobs, I think starting next week are 334 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 2: going to start to get filled. 335 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 3: I mean, we've already seen We've already seen one field. Yeah, yeah, 336 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 3: it's it's a tough game to play of I want 337 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 3: to make sure my team is prepared. I have a 338 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 3: rookie quarterback and Jayden Daniels that I want to put 339 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 3: my entire focus on making sure he's ready to go 340 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 3: up against a really good Detroit Lions team. But then 341 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 3: on the other hand, I have these opportunities and I 342 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 3: should definitely see those through. It's Todd Monkin talked about it, 343 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 3: and Sean McDermott was asked about it today during his 344 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 3: press conference what he thinks of how these interviews happened 345 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 3: during the playoffs, and McDermott said, Hey, it has changed 346 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 3: since I've been in the league. It's gotten better. But 347 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 3: the thing that you're up against is scouting combine is 348 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 3: right around the corner. 349 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 2: Well. And not only that, you've got teams that don't 350 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 2: have a coach who want to get a coach in 351 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 2: that position as quickly as possible, and I don't want 352 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 2: to wait till the playoffs end. They're sitting there twiddling 353 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 2: their thumbs. They're like, Hey, we got business we got 354 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 2: to take care of. We got to get our program 355 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 2: up and running. So they don't want to wait. So 356 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 2: it's it's you know, you're kind of stuck between a 357 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 2: rock and a hard place with finding the happy medium. 358 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,719 Speaker 2: I think to your point what coach said is right. 359 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 2: They have done better in terms of how to accommodate 360 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 2: teams looking for a head coach while also not compromising 361 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 2: the preparations of playoff teams. So they're trying to straddle 362 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 2: the fence there as best they can. But I don't 363 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 2: know if there is a perfect formula per se. Being 364 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 2: the Chicago native you are, have you seen that the 365 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 2: Bear's job is down to supposedly two people, Ben Johnson 366 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 2: and Mike McCarthy. How surprised were you to hear that 367 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 2: not surprising. I mean McCarthy swoops in and fly by night, 368 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 2: he's in there, he does the interview, and then it's like, oh, 369 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 2: it's down to him and Ben Johnson. I get the 370 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 2: Ben Johnson Mike McCarthy a little bit less. So maybe 371 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 2: the Bears are hearkening back to the days when McCarthy 372 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,239 Speaker 2: owned them with with a young Aaron Rodgers and all 373 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 2: the times they beat them. I don't know. That surprised 374 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 2: me a little bit, even for the Bears. 375 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, but nask Bears fans, they'll say, I'm not surprised 376 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 3: at all. 377 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 2: When the general consensus, I would think is they want 378 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 2: Ben Johnson, right, I would hope the Lions oci. 379 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, general consensus from the fan base, yes, general consensus 380 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 3: from the upstairs. I have no idea when word came 381 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 3: out that he Mike McCarthy was flowing out. 382 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 2: How did your dad feel about that one? Have you 383 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:34,159 Speaker 2: talked to him yet? Oh? 384 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 5: Man. 385 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 3: I have not caught up with him this week, but 386 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 3: I had some family members in town last week for 387 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 3: the game and the Bears talk was NonStop about they're 388 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 3: going to figure a way to mess this up. The 389 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 3: only thing I want to see come across my phone 390 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 3: in relation to the Bears hiring a head coach, is 391 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 3: that we hired Ben Johnson. That's all I'm going to take. 392 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 3: But I don't know if they're gonna if the Bears 393 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 3: people making these decisions and House Hall are going to 394 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 3: be the ones who make the decision that I want 395 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 3: to see. 396 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, my fingers are crossed for your dad's sake, if anything. 397 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 2: The Miami Dolphins, last bit of news here, have been 398 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 2: designated as the home team for the first ever NFL 399 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 2: regular season game to be played in Madrid next season. Now, historically, 400 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 2: the NFL has not staged division games to be played 401 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 2: overseas because owners say they're too important to add in 402 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 2: logistics and travel and everything else overseas. For that, they 403 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,880 Speaker 2: don't want to be losing division games to overseas venues, 404 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 2: which I totally get. So I wouldn't anticipate the Bills 405 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: to be the team, or the Jets or the Patriots 406 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 2: to be the team that plays the Dolphins in Madrid 407 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 2: this year, But we'll have to wait and see. Here's 408 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 2: the thing that I'm thinking more and more, Maddie, with 409 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 2: all of these announcements about you know, while We're playing 410 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 2: in Spain. Now, we're playing in Berlin, Lynn and Brazil 411 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 2: last year in Mexico. City's coming back as soon as 412 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 2: as Texas Stadium is renovated. We're not going to be 413 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 2: waiting another eight years before the Bills play an international 414 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 2: game again. It's going to be we will get to that, 415 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 2: probably because we heard Commissioner Goodell say last year at 416 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl they want to get to a place 417 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 2: where they have sixteen international games every year, which would 418 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 2: mean every team in the league is playing an international 419 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 2: game every year because you need two teams to play 420 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 2: a game. So that is around the NFL presented by 421 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 2: kalaudea Healthy Official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills. We 422 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 2: do want to get to the phones though, at a 423 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 2: three to five fifty won eight eight eight five fifty 424 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 2: two five point fifty as we have an obl Friday 425 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 2: fan mail bag edition of One Bills Live. Leading us 426 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 2: off today is Ron out in Rochester. What do you 427 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 2: got for us? Ron? You're on One Bill's Live. 428 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, first time, long time. I'd like to hear Maddie's 429 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 6: point of view on how we're going to be able 430 00:21:55,920 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 6: to neutralize Derrick Henry and Mark Andrews. I think that 431 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 6: if we leave the ball in you know, Jackson hands, 432 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 6: then well I think we'll be better off. 433 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 7: So I'll take a back seat. Listen to what you 434 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 7: have to say. 435 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 2: Okay, thanks, Ron, appreciate the call. 436 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 3: Well, let's talk about how this defense is going to 437 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 3: play against this Ravens offense. First time around, the Bills 438 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 3: were without Terrell Bernard, Matt Milano, and Tarren Johnson. Having 439 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 3: three healthy players in Milano, Johnson, and Bernard, I think 440 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 3: you get a team who is more capable of stopping 441 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 3: the run with those bodies on the field. I said 442 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,479 Speaker 3: this on a podcast I was just on. I am 443 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 3: very interested to see how Buffalo comes out when they're 444 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 3: playing in their first series on defense. Whatever the Ravens 445 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 3: are going to do, I'm very intrigued to see how 446 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 3: Buffalo reacts to that and if they change within those 447 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 3: first few series or if they wait till halftime. Buffalo's 448 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 3: defense has done a fantastic job at making halftime adjustments, 449 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 3: coming out out of the locker room, acting as a 450 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 3: different team in the second half, figuring out what went 451 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 3: wrong in the first half, and making sure it didn't 452 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 3: happen in the second half. Buffalo's defense loves to play nickel. 453 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 3: We saw Buffalo's defense play more bass against the Ravens, 454 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 3: which made sense. I wonder if that's going to be 455 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 3: the case when you have those three healthy players. Tarren 456 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 3: Johnson is good at stopping the run. Dereck Henry is 457 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 3: a different type of running back though, so maybe we 458 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 3: see a Buffalo defense who also plays a little bit 459 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 3: more bass in this game. Buffalo's defense loves to play 460 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 3: light boxes. Maybe we see a more stacked box against 461 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 3: the Ravens. I'm not sure what they're gonna do, because 462 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 3: we hear all the time from Bobby Babbage and Sean McDermott, 463 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 3: we do not want to go away from our identity 464 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 3: as a defense. They believe in who they are and 465 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,479 Speaker 3: what they put on the field, and I think that's nickel. 466 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 3: That's where they believe their best. This is a defense 467 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 3: that loves to take away the football. But when you're 468 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 3: playing against a Raven's offense that is first in the NFL, 469 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 3: averaging one hundred and eighty seven rushing yards per game, 470 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 3: maybe you do have to switch up who you are 471 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 3: a little bit. 472 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 2: I think they'll try to match personnel a little bit 473 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 2: I'm not sure they're gonna do anything super unconventional because 474 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 2: they tend to trust what got them here in the 475 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 2: first place. But I don't think nickel personnel is the 476 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 2: answer if they're going to go two tight ends and 477 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,880 Speaker 2: heavy set or even jumbo, So I do think you'll 478 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 2: see more base defense. I went back and looked the 479 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 2: last three meetings between the Bills and Ravens. Granted this 480 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 2: is without Derek Henry up until Week four of this year, 481 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 2: but in the twenty twenty divisional playoff, the Bills put 482 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 2: three linebackers on the field forty percent of the snaps, 483 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 2: and they shut down the Baltimore running game, which was 484 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 2: still pretty formidable even at that time with who they 485 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 2: had on their roster. Then twenty twenty two, the game 486 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 2: in Baltimore that Poyer kind of sealed with the interception 487 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 2: in the end zone, they came back from a twenty 488 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 2: to three deficit and won twenty three to twenty on 489 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,439 Speaker 2: a field goal at the end of the game. They 490 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 2: played nickel most of that game, but they still shut 491 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 2: down the run and won the football game. And then 492 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 2: this year they did have three linebackers on the field 493 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 2: about thirty percent of the snaps. So, knowing how productive 494 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 2: this run game has been, and it's only gotten better 495 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 2: for the Ravens as the season has worn on, I 496 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 2: think it's fair to assume that you'll see a good 497 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,360 Speaker 2: deal of Dorian Williams, and then as for Mark Andrews, 498 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 2: you're probably looking at Taylor rap matching up there, maybe 499 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 2: on occasion Matt Mulano, but I think it's a safety 500 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 2: matchup more often than not. But in the red zone, 501 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 2: where the field is shorter and you don't have to 502 00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 2: cover as much ground, maybe you put a bigger player 503 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 2: on Andrews because he's really good at boxing out safeties 504 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 2: because he's such a big body at two hundred and 505 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 2: sixty pounds. So maybe you do see Milana on him 506 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 2: in the red zone. But between the twenties, maybe it's 507 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 2: a safety who can cover more grounds. So we'll have 508 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 2: to see how they decide to play that. Let's go 509 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,400 Speaker 2: to Dan in Rochester next. What's up Dan? 510 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 7: Hi, Chris, Chris Maddy? 511 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 8: How you doing good? 512 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 7: I got a vent, Chris, I'm full sick at Bottle 513 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 7: Market screen. I've been a Bills fan, Saber fan forever. 514 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 7: I've seen the heart Print city in Bubbo. 515 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 9: I hate to say they. 516 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 7: Call Buffalo losing city. 517 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 10: You know what. 518 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 9: I'm so sick. I'm hoping. 519 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 7: I hope we both run him out of the stadium. 520 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 8: I can't wait. And thanks for taking my call. 521 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 2: Sure thing, Dan, your angst is shared. Maddie and I 522 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 2: were just saying before we went on the air, like 523 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 2: we are so tired, like I've seen it on social media. 524 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 2: And Maddie asked me because she just did a podcast 525 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 2: with some Baltimore media right before she came on the 526 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 2: air with me, and she's like, they think they're gonna 527 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 2: absolutely annihilate us, and that is the general consensus down there. 528 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 2: Why probably some recency bias. I mean, they boat race 529 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,959 Speaker 2: the Bills in Week four, they won thirty five to ten. 530 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 2: Going away, I don't think they've taken the time to 531 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 2: see how the Bills have improved themselves. I mean run 532 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 2: defense alone. The Bills through the first ten weeks of 533 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 2: the season were given up five yards per carry in 534 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,679 Speaker 2: run defense. From Week eleven to week eighteen, they've reduced 535 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 2: that number by a full yard. They're only giving up 536 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 2: four yards of carry and over that stretch that's eighth 537 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 2: best in the league. The Bills are better as a 538 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 2: run defending team. You know, they're not perfect, but they're 539 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 2: better than what they saw, certainly in Week four. And oh, 540 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 2: by the way, the Bills are playing at home and 541 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 2: the Ravens on the road this year are six and three. 542 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 2: It's a good road record, but it's not an invincible one. 543 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 2: So it's a lot of the chatter coming from Baltimore. 544 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 2: They are resolutely confident that they're going to run the 545 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 2: Bills out of their own stadium, and I think we 546 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: all want to see the exact opposite of that, just 547 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 2: to kind of stick it in their craw and say, yeah, 548 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 2: you thought you were gonna come in here and it 549 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 2: was going to be a walk. Sorry, Charlie, go home, 550 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,360 Speaker 2: your season's over. Nothing would make me happier, I'm telling 551 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 2: you right now. 552 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 3: The fact that the Bills have a home game, I 553 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 3: think plays into this quite a bit. I think this 554 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 3: is going to be in Buffalo's favor. I know this 555 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 3: crowd is going to be riled up and ready to go. 556 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 3: I think Baltimore Ravens fans have woken up the beast 557 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 3: inside of Bill's mafia and they're gonna bring it on Sunday. 558 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 3: I'm expecting a few false starts, a few delay of games. 559 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 3: I think there's gonna be something that happens with crowd 560 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 3: noise that shifts the Ravens out of what they're trying 561 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 3: to do. So I think being at home really helps 562 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 3: Buffalo's offense. 563 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, Bill's Mafia got a couple of false 564 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 2: starts out of Denver last week, so they already have 565 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 2: two tally marks on the wall. As far as I'm concerned. 566 00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 2: Got to take a break here because when we come back, 567 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 2: we're gonna have our legend of the game for Sunday. Yes, 568 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 2: it's former Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. He's gonna join us 569 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 2: on the line.

So once 585 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 2: we get him on the line, we'll obviously throw him on. 586 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 2: But in the meantime we'll go to your phone calls 587 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 2: at eight O three oh five fifty and we lead 588 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 2: off this segment with Ryan in Toronto. What do you 589 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 2: got for us? 590 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 8: Ryan, Chris, Maddy Happy freaking Friday wise. Sorry, I'm sorry, Maddy. 591 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 8: I want to ask to you guys something. I know 592 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 8: McDermott likes to defer the coin toss and maybe I'll 593 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 8: give the other a plevantine the kick and then re 594 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 8: see the ball of the second half and double the 595 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 8: kind of thing in the first half. But do you 596 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 8: think if you win to coin toss would be a 597 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 8: good idea to maybe receive the ball and you know 598 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 8: what marched down the field score touchdown down the throne 599 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 8: of the Ravens and get the court all wild up 600 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 8: and then get the difference go to work. 601 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 2: What do you think, Yeah, I don't think it's out 602 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 2: of the realm of possibility. Ryan coach McDermott did that 603 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 2: once before, and I am trying to remember the game. 604 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 2: Was it the wild card game last year against the Steelers. 605 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 2: I want to say it was. I want to say 606 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 2: that was the game where they won the coin toss 607 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 2: and said we want the ball. I think that was 608 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 2: the game. I know he's done it before, so Ryan, 609 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 2: your point is well taken, and I don't think it's 610 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 2: out of the realm of possibility. If they feel really 611 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 2: good about their offensive game plan and want to sit 612 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 2: a tone with their offense, I could see them doing 613 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 2: that if they win the coin toss. So we'll have 614 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 2: to see how it goes. Obviously, the Ravens are gonna 615 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 2: call it because they're the visiting team, so they'll be 616 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 2: calling heads or tails. But if they win the toss yet, 617 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 2: I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility 618 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 2: to set the tone that way, get a chance to 619 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 2: go up on the scoreboard, force the Ravens to play 620 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 2: from behind. Maddy and I were talking before we came 621 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 2: on the air, and Steve has said this before. The 622 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 2: Ravens are elite front runners. When they are ahead on 623 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 2: the scoreboard, they play even better. And you saw that 624 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 2: in Week four. You know, they score the early touchdown 625 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 2: on the first play from scrimmage for them, and they 626 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 2: are just rolling from there and they're hard to stop 627 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 2: once that happens. So maybe he does feel it's important 628 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 2: to be on the field with his offense first, sticking 629 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 2: in the end zone and say, okay, now you play 630 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 2: from behind, let's see how you do. 631 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 3: Momentum is huge in the regular season. I think momentum 632 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 3: is even bigger in the playoffs. If you can get 633 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 3: a momentum swing on that first possession of that game, 634 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 3: or the defense comes out and they have a great 635 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 3: three and out, that's momentum in your favor. I think 636 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 3: whatever weight goes, the team has to start off hot 637 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 3: in the beginning of the game. 638 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean early, fast start, Yes, yes, yes, and 639 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 2: yes let's go to Ron in cheek Towagan next. What's 640 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 2: up Ron? 641 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 7: Yeah. 642 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 4: I was sitting in the Klabi chef talking with a 643 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 4: few of my friends and I started lamp because they 644 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 4: came up with a new names for two people, and 645 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 4: that team ten and end boys. 646 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 2: Milano and Miller. I see what you did there. 647 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:56,719 Speaker 4: The logic of this is simple. These two guys are 648 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 4: getting up their years, all right, and the eddy hits 649 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 4: there any good or better than they half good going 650 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 4: into this game to play. I'm sure they want to 651 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 4: get to the super Bowl because they they may never 652 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 4: get another chance. 653 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think Miller knows that more than anybody. Oh, 654 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 2: sorry to cut you off, Ron, I just got a 655 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 2: lot of people waiting, so we got to move on. 656 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 2: Miller's thirty five. Like he knows, he doesn't have too 657 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 2: many more swings at this He's already been fortunate enough 658 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 2: to win two super Bowls. If he can somehow go 659 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 2: to the super Bowl with the Bills and win, he 660 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 2: will be only the second player ever in NFL history 661 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 2: to win three Super Bowls with three different teams. And 662 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 2: that is firmly on his mind. He wants to keep 663 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 2: going and and he's been great down the stretcher. I 664 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 2: think I saw the number. Since Week twelve, he has 665 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 2: the highest quarterback pressure percentage in the league, which which 666 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 2: shocked me a little bit. I've noticed him more, but 667 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 2: to be one of the best in getting quarterback pressure 668 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 2: in the league on snaps. Was was eye opening for me, 669 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 2: but I'm glad to hear it. 670 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 3: And it's the highest pressure rate also on third down 671 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 3: since week twelve, not including the playoffs. So I think 672 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 3: von Miller has figured out the recipe that works for 673 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 3: him at his age, with fourteen years of of NFL 674 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 3: experience underneath his belt. I think it was a conversation 675 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 3: with the defensive coaching staff and thinking about what can 676 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 3: I do for my body that's going to make me 677 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 3: feel as ready as possible come the end of the season, 678 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,280 Speaker 3: come the playoffs. It seems like it's been working. Since 679 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 3: Week twelve. He has been awesome at pressuring the quarterback. 680 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,360 Speaker 3: Seems like his mindset is right and feels ready to 681 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 3: go for the rest of the playoffs. 682 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, and as for Milano, you know, I think we 683 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 2: can all see he's starting to look more and more 684 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 2: like the old All Pro Matt Milano with each passing game. 685 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 2: I mean last week's play when he ran down bow 686 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 2: knicks out in the flat when he was spying him. 687 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 2: Even bo Nix was surprised. He got him around the 688 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 2: ankles and wrestled them out of bounds, and I had 689 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 2: heard this story. Micah Hyde was on the sideline right 690 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 2: where that happened, and Micah was talking and I was 691 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 2: with an earshot, and he said, when Milano got up, 692 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 2: as we know, he's a person of very few words, 693 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 2: he just got up. He looked at Micah and he smirked. 694 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,399 Speaker 2: And Mike is like, that's all I needed to see 695 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 2: old Matt Mullano's back. So if that comes to fruition 696 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 2: as well, and he plays even better this week, all 697 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 2: the better for the Bills. For sure. We're gonna take 698 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 2: a break here because when we come back, we hope 699 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 2: to have Ryan Fitzpatrick with us. We want to save 700 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 2: a little time on the back end of our hour 701 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 2: here so we have more time with this week's legend 702 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 2: of the game.

Former Bills qb 715 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 2: Ryan Fitzpatrick. Legend of the Game, presented by the bfl 716 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,800 Speaker 2: O stored, official retailer of the Buffalo Bills. Okay, we 717 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 2: got all the particulars out of the way, Fits, so 718 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 2: we got to start here, man, because I mean, I 719 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 2: go back with this guy to pre beard. I knew 720 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 2: Ryan Fitzpatrick before he even started growing a beard. That's 721 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 2: how long I've been around this guy. I did not 722 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 2: know him pre chest hair. That would we'd have to 723 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 2: go all the way back to like age ten for that. 724 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 2: But fits the post on Twitter the teas if you 725 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 2: will do did you just buy that pick or have 726 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 2: you always had it? 727 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 1: I have to ask, no, I've had that pick for 728 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 1: a long time. 729 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,960 Speaker 5: I used to you know, since we're going back to 730 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 5: two thousand and nine, really before I could grow a beard. 731 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 5: As I started to figure out how to grow one, 732 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 5: I really didn't learn how to maintain it while I 733 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 5: was in Buffalo. That was post Buffalo career. But I 734 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,719 Speaker 5: used to use the brush that Jeff Massurich and the 735 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 5: guys use on those games. Okay, rush my beard back 736 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:29,439 Speaker 5: in the day. That's how far I've come. But yeah, 737 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 5: the chest hair's got to be looking right, and so 738 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 5: sometimes the pick has to come out to get the 739 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 5: curls out of it, you know. 740 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, I'm sure you're already getting besieged with Twitter 741 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 2: dms demanding that you go bear chested on Sunday night 742 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,279 Speaker 2: when I'm not gonna lie. I'm sure you've looked. The 743 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 2: temperature is going to be in the single digits. I 744 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 2: have a suggestion. I don't know if it'll work and 745 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 2: satisfy the crowd, but you know those beach t shirts 746 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 2: that look like bear chests, you may have. You may 747 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 2: have to go that route, like those beach t shirts 748 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:04,399 Speaker 2: that looked like bear chess. That might be a way 749 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,879 Speaker 2: around it. I'm just looking for workarounds for you fits. 750 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, some people are saying it's too cold 751 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 5: to take your shirt off, So we'll see what happens, Chris, 752 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 5: We'll see what happens. 753 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:17,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Well, switching gears talking about this matchup against 754 00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 3: the Ravens in the divisional round. If it's the last 755 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 3: time you were in Buffalo with Amazon Prime was last 756 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 3: year Week eight when the Bills faced the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 757 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 3: Buffalo won that game. But thinking back to last year 758 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 3: and now looking forward to Buffalo right now, what has 759 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,879 Speaker 3: changed about the Bills since you were last in town 760 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 3: calling a game. 761 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's been amazing, you know, And even I think 762 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,800 Speaker 5: back to the beginning of this year, we had the 763 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 5: first game Buffalo at Miami, you know, the first time 764 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 5: they played this year, and I was the only one 765 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 5: on the Thursday Night panel that picked Buffalo to win 766 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 5: that game. And so I think that was the general 767 00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,800 Speaker 5: consensus going into this season. Well, it's going to be 768 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 5: a lost year. You know, they're retooling, they're rebuilding. But 769 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:08,760 Speaker 5: there was a John Butler who coached the secondary in Buffalo, 770 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:10,359 Speaker 5: and he was actually at Harvard when I was there. 771 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,720 Speaker 5: I was talking to him in the offseason just about 772 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:17,320 Speaker 5: the Bills and the state, and he was, you know, 773 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 5: just talking about all kinds of stuff, and he said 774 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 5: to me, they have Josh Allen and as long as 775 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 5: number seventeen is there, they're always going to have a 776 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,799 Speaker 5: chance to compete. And I think you've seen that this year, 777 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 5: and it's been really fun to watch because it's a 778 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 5: tight knit group. This is guys that really enjoy being 779 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 5: around each other. You can see it when they're on 780 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 5: the field with each other, you know, the way he 781 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 5: spreads the ball around, the way that everybody gets involved. 782 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 5: I love watching the clips of mister Bright's side. I 783 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 5: can't wait to see that, just the guys dancing and 784 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 5: enjoying each other, and even guys like Amari Cooper coming 785 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 5: into this setting and being like, Wow, this is this 786 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 5: is what a real team feels like. Josh has done 787 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,720 Speaker 5: a great job and mcdermot's great job of building that culture. 788 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,240 Speaker 5: And I completely agree. Every time you take the field 789 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 5: with number seventeen is your quarterback, you get a chance 790 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 5: to win the game. 791 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 2: Fits. I know you had a lot of fun playing 792 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,759 Speaker 2: in Chan Gaily's offense, which did a lot of four 793 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 2: by one sets, and last week Joe Brady's version of 794 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 2: that with some bunch formations on one side, single guy 795 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,320 Speaker 2: to the other side. They really kind of made Denver 796 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 2: struggle with coverage assignments. It was one of the main 797 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 2: reasons Curtis Samuel is running wide open even though pats 798 00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 2: Er Tan is his cover assignment. What have you seen 799 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 2: from Joe Brady in terms of how he has facilitated 800 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 2: separation for his skill players. 801 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,799 Speaker 5: Well, I think the biggest thing when I think about 802 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 5: a quarterback and an offensive coordinator is just the way 803 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 5: that they mesh. And I felt like I wasn't sure 804 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 5: when Joe Brady took over last year, even though he 805 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,799 Speaker 5: did great, I wasn't sure it was the right move 806 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,280 Speaker 5: going into this year or not. And I was definitely 807 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 5: proven wrong with that one. He's been great. He saw 808 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 5: Josh's interview, you know, last week or two weeks ago, 809 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 5: whenever it was. It was basically, you know, trying to 810 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 5: make sure that he stayed there and he didn't get 811 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 5: plucked to be a head coach somewhere. But I think 812 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 5: when you see a quarterback that's comfortable, a quarterback that 813 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,439 Speaker 5: can anticipate a play call and kind of knows what's 814 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 5: coming because you're on the same page with your coordinator, 815 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 5: that's such a big thing and gives you a lot 816 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,320 Speaker 5: of confidence. And to me, that's what I've seen this 817 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 5: year with Josh and with Joe Brady is they're meshed 818 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 5: and you know they think the same. They've got this 819 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 5: mind melt where they're won. And so when he's on 820 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 5: the field and he gets a play call, he knows 821 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,359 Speaker 5: what Joe Brady's expecting. And when Josh is out there 822 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 5: and a play gets called, okay. We talked about this 823 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 5: during the week. This is what I expected to come in. 824 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 5: When you have that kind of chemistry, it goes such 825 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:57,760 Speaker 5: a long way, and I think that's what they built 826 00:41:57,920 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 5: from last year to this year. 827 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:04,280 Speaker 3: Against the Broncos last week, Buffalo's offense went up against 828 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,239 Speaker 3: a tough defensive line who led the league in sacks 829 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 3: during the regular season with sixty three. Buffalo wasn't afraid 830 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 3: to run the ball against that defensive line. They got 831 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 3: or two hundred and ten rushing yards on the ground. 832 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,839 Speaker 3: This week, they go up against a bigger defensive line 833 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 3: that the Ravens have, but the Ravens finished second in 834 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 3: the league in sacks with fifty four. What is the 835 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 3: game plan for Buffalo this week on offense? 836 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 5: I think the weather is going to play into it 837 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 5: a little bit, and part of that is how windy 838 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 5: is is it going to be? Obviously, the temperatures are 839 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 5: going to be very cold. That'll affect both teams. But 840 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 5: it's been nice to see their willingness to stick with 841 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 5: the run even when it doesn't work sometimes, to continue 842 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 5: to hand it off and to work the play action in. 843 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,839 Speaker 5: I would love to see more of the play action 844 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:57,360 Speaker 5: to Knox and the kincaid kind of work in the 845 00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 5: middle of the field. I think we'll see more of 846 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 5: that this week, but it's going to be a tough matchup. 847 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 5: The defensive turnaround of Baltimore this year is something I 848 00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,439 Speaker 5: don't know that I've ever seen, you know, for them 849 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,720 Speaker 5: to be literally the worst defense in the league, especially 850 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:15,240 Speaker 5: past defense, over the first eleven weeks of the season, 851 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 5: and then to go to number one in almost every category, 852 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 5: it's been great to see. But this Buffalo offense is 853 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:24,280 Speaker 5: different than a lot of teams that they've played, especially 854 00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:26,600 Speaker 5: how healthy they are right now and how they're playing 855 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 5: right now. It's going to be a great challenge for 856 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 5: Baltimore's defense to try to stop these guys. 857 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 2: And then flipping it around, you know, for Buffalo's defense, 858 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,839 Speaker 2: obviously the last matchup did not go well in Week four. 859 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,399 Speaker 2: I think the Bills, much like the Ravens, feel they're 860 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 2: a different team. The Bills feel like they're a different 861 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,839 Speaker 2: team as well. And while the Ravens have improved their 862 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 2: pass defense to a great degree down the stretch here, 863 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 2: the Bills run defense has improved. I think they've hacked 864 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 2: off almost a full yard off their yards per carry 865 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 2: average allowed. It went from four point nine to four 866 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 2: over these last eight weeks of the season, which is 867 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 2: good for eighth best in the league. I know they're 868 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,839 Speaker 2: facing a two headed monster here that is pretty rare 869 00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:14,320 Speaker 2: and unique. But just that fact, combined with knowing that 870 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 2: Terrell Bernard, Matt Mulano, Tarren Johnson are back in the 871 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 2: lineup which they were in in Week four, does that 872 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 2: change your perception of how this could go and that 873 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 2: they could at least slow down the Ravens run game 874 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 2: a little bit. 875 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 8: Yeah. 876 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:29,759 Speaker 5: I mean this is a whole different beast right now. 877 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,319 Speaker 5: And I think, you know, the Ravens had a late buy. 878 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,160 Speaker 5: They were able to look at some stuff and they've 879 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 5: been really, really good and tough the last five weeks, 880 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:40,319 Speaker 5: especially the way they've run the football, the way they've 881 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 5: incorporated a lot of the zone reads, you know, the 882 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 5: way that Lamar is now tucking it and running it 883 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 5: a little bit more in the design run category. So 884 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 5: that makes them tough. And I just think, you know, 885 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 5: we talk about Derrick Henry and how difficult he is 886 00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 5: to tackle. As it gets colder, you know, how much 887 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:01,800 Speaker 5: more the hits hurt. And we saw it in the 888 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:04,680 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh game. We had it with our Thursday Night football 889 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 5: crew for a wild card game. There were guys turning 890 00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 5: down tackling Derrick Henry when he got going. I think 891 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 5: the same thing applies when you're talking about a defense, 892 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 5: an identity for somebody like Lamar Jackson, who if he's 893 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 5: going to carry the ball a bunch. I think on defense, 894 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:23,799 Speaker 5: you've got to make sure that he feels it every 895 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,320 Speaker 5: time he's carrying the ball. And that's not to be malicious. 896 00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 5: That's not to say you're going to take dirty hits, 897 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 5: but those hits when it gets cold, just as we 898 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 5: talk about Derrick Henry, are going to add up on 899 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:35,840 Speaker 5: a guy like Lamore if he's going to carry the 900 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 5: ball ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen times a game. So I 901 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 5: think that's something they'll be talking about. You know, the 902 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 5: absence probably of Jay Flowers again hurts. But they've got 903 00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,800 Speaker 5: some really really good tight ends and Andrews and Isaiah 904 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:51,320 Speaker 5: Likely that have played really. 905 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:51,719 Speaker 2: Well this year. 906 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 3: You watched the Bills and the Ravens throughout the season, 907 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,759 Speaker 3: you know their strengths on offense and defense. What does 908 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 3: Sunday's game come down? In your opinion? 909 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 5: I think it's going to come down to who's better 910 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:08,319 Speaker 5: at converting fourth down, you know, because I do think 911 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:10,920 Speaker 5: you know, some people are talking about this being a shootout. 912 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:12,920 Speaker 5: I think points are going to be at a premium. 913 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,239 Speaker 5: This is going to be a tough, old school game. 914 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 5: I think there are going to be some of those 915 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 5: moments on fourth down in the red zone, especially in 916 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,320 Speaker 5: that low red area, where they're going to go for 917 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 5: it rather than kick the field goals. And you know, 918 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 5: both of these teams are really good because they've got 919 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:32,960 Speaker 5: a quarterback that can create they've got design runs they 920 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 5: can give to a quarterback, and they've got two quarterbacks 921 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 5: that have been really efficient from the pocket this year. 922 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 5: So it's going to come down to some of those 923 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 5: key moments fourth down in the low red area and 924 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,320 Speaker 5: teams walking away with seven points rather than zero, and 925 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,560 Speaker 5: I'm going to say the Buffalo Bills are going to 926 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:51,960 Speaker 5: be really good at that on Sunday. 927 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,719 Speaker 2: All right, fitz thank you very much for the time. 928 00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 2: Appreciate the insight on that.

All right, Greg, So I 958 00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 2: went back and looked at Baltimore's last defeat, which was 959 00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:20,040 Speaker 2: at the hands of the Eagles, who I know you 960 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:23,919 Speaker 2: see an awful lot of and can I just chalk 961 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:28,040 Speaker 2: up the Eagles outlasting the Ravens because they have a 962 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:32,279 Speaker 2: gigantic set of human beings on defense? Is that the 963 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,920 Speaker 2: main reason we're talking about here, What did you attribute 964 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:39,759 Speaker 2: to Philadelphia essentially outlasting Baltimore Because I don't think I 965 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,799 Speaker 2: don't think Philadelphia played their best offensive game by any means. 966 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 11: No, And I don't know if that game is, to 967 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:50,359 Speaker 11: be honest with you, Brownies, that relevant to this game, 968 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 11: because I think the teams are are totally different. So 969 00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:56,480 Speaker 11: you know, I'm not sure that that matters a lot 970 00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 11: for this particular game. The Eagles offense to me is is, 971 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 11: you know nothing. The quarterbacks are totally different. I mean, 972 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:07,320 Speaker 11: Jalen Hurts is nothing like Josh Allen. 973 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 10: You know. 974 00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 11: You know, I think that that that's not really Again, 975 00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 11: I'm just being honest. I don't think that that matters 976 00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:16,719 Speaker 11: a lot, you know, I think you yea. To me, 977 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:18,719 Speaker 11: I kind of look at the teams as what they are, 978 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:21,839 Speaker 11: you know, not not their last loss or I mean, 979 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 11: you know, I'm trying to evaluate the teams and how 980 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 11: I think they'll match up in this game, right do you? 981 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 2: Because I'm looking at the last eight games when the 982 00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:36,960 Speaker 2: Ravens defense has really, you know, kind of improved themselves 983 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 2: to a great degree, going to the top pass defense 984 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,080 Speaker 2: in football over the last eight weeks of the season, 985 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:45,800 Speaker 2: but yeah, mixed in there, you've got Cleveland twice, the 986 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,920 Speaker 2: Giants with Drew Locke or whoever they had in the 987 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,759 Speaker 2: lineup that week. I mean, it's I'm trying to take 988 00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 2: it with a grain of salt here. I've all the 989 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,400 Speaker 2: respect in the world for Baltimore's defense, but I mean 990 00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:58,520 Speaker 2: they rocketed to the top of the league playing some 991 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:00,760 Speaker 2: also ran football teams. 992 00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:03,360 Speaker 11: Yeah, but I think when you look at their defense, 993 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,760 Speaker 11: a couple of things stand out. They're very big upfront, 994 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 11: and particularly on the inside. They've got a lot of 995 00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 11: people up front who's you know, first digit starts with three, 996 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 11: so you know, the big you know, that raises one 997 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:19,359 Speaker 11: of the questions in this game. Clearly, we saw last 998 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:21,840 Speaker 11: week that the coaching staff of the Bills felt they 999 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:24,719 Speaker 11: could line up and run the football against the Broncos 1000 00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:27,760 Speaker 11: because you know, you talk about James Cookie at thirteen 1001 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:30,839 Speaker 11: for seventy eight in the first half. Nine of those 1002 00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 11: thirteen runs came on first down. I think they played 1003 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 11: Anderson on ten snaps in the first half. So they 1004 00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:42,400 Speaker 11: clearly felt as they game plan to play the Broncos 1005 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 11: that they could line up, play physical, power football and 1006 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,880 Speaker 11: run the ball. So the question is against this particular 1007 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:52,040 Speaker 11: defensive front with the Ravens where they do have big 1008 00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 11: people in the middle, will they feel that they have 1009 00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:58,799 Speaker 11: to take the same approach, Can they take the same 1010 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,759 Speaker 11: approach or do they need to be a little more 1011 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 11: aggressive with pass And when I say that, I don't 1012 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 11: mean throw the ball, you know, thirty yards down the field, 1013 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,040 Speaker 11: but just be a little more aggressive in terms of 1014 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:10,759 Speaker 11: their run past ratio and maybe throw the ball a 1015 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:12,680 Speaker 11: little more, you know. And I think that's one of 1016 00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:15,279 Speaker 11: the questions in this game. Of course there's many, but 1017 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:17,960 Speaker 11: you know, to me that that's one of the questions 1018 00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 11: as I look at this matchup, given that the Ravens 1019 00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,200 Speaker 11: are very good against the run and they have a 1020 00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 11: lot of big people inside. 1021 00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:29,040 Speaker 2: All right, So concerning Buffalo's run game, though they ran 1022 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 2: a lot of different run play variations last week, including 1023 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 2: true eye formation with Reggie Gilliam. They ran some pitch 1024 00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 2: or toss whatever you want to call it with Cook 1025 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:44,360 Speaker 2: And I'm thinking with a big defensive line like that, 1026 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,480 Speaker 2: you'd want to go pitch and get them moving laterally 1027 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:51,719 Speaker 2: rather than trying to penetrate up field. What do you 1028 00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:53,600 Speaker 2: think of that approach with Buffalo's run game. 1029 00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:57,360 Speaker 11: I mean, you can certainly take that approach, but I 1030 00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:01,319 Speaker 11: also think that you're dealing with a defense that's that's 1031 00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 11: pretty fast, you know, and and you know, fairly rangey. 1032 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 11: So you know, I think the key thing is the 1033 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 11: point you made about being multiple with what you do 1034 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:12,800 Speaker 11: in the run game. I think that's really really important. 1035 00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:16,320 Speaker 11: You don't want to you know, run the same kinds 1036 00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 11: of plays. I guess the question is do we feel 1037 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:23,400 Speaker 11: that the Bills in order to be successful in this 1038 00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:26,719 Speaker 11: game have to really run the ball at a high level. 1039 00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 11: I mean, that's that's really the question, because not many 1040 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 11: teams have done that against Baltimore. So if the Bills, 1041 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,840 Speaker 11: let me pose it this way, and because this is 1042 00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:39,920 Speaker 11: what I've been thinking about. Let's say the Bills come 1043 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:41,640 Speaker 11: out and feel like, hey, you know, we have a 1044 00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:44,759 Speaker 11: really good online it's been strong all year. It's been 1045 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:47,840 Speaker 11: a foundation of what we do on offense. We're gonna 1046 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,320 Speaker 11: come out and we're gonna play quote unquote Bills football. 1047 00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 11: And then through two series they can't run the ball. 1048 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 11: Then what happens do they stay with it? You know, 1049 00:53:57,160 --> 00:54:00,440 Speaker 11: assuming the score is still you know, three nothing, let's say, 1050 00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:03,879 Speaker 11: or three to three or do they feel like it's 1051 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,920 Speaker 11: time for Plan B and we need to maybe, you know, 1052 00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:09,240 Speaker 11: work on the pass work the passing game. 1053 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:12,399 Speaker 3: In a little more so, taking that a step further, 1054 00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:16,240 Speaker 3: if they get to Plan B. Knowing what the Ravens 1055 00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 3: weaknesses are are on defense, I know there's not many 1056 00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:24,400 Speaker 3: who on Buffalo's offense do you see being targeted a 1057 00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:28,400 Speaker 3: good amount? The potential of having a good game based 1058 00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 3: on how the Ravens defense plays well. 1059 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:33,759 Speaker 11: Then it comes down to personnel that the Bills have 1060 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 11: on the field. Because when the Ravens are in their 1061 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 11: base defense, the left corner is Humphrey and the right 1062 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:43,360 Speaker 11: corner is Stevens. When they go to their nickel, the 1063 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 11: Humphrey moves inside to the slot and Wiggins, the rookie, 1064 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,439 Speaker 11: plays left corner. Stevens the right corner would be viewed 1065 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:53,320 Speaker 11: as the weak link in the in the coverage department. 1066 00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:57,000 Speaker 11: So again, however, and and and they don't switch sides, 1067 00:54:57,040 --> 00:55:00,200 Speaker 11: they don't match up, so you know where he's going be. 1068 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:02,680 Speaker 11: He's going to be the right corner. So you can 1069 00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 11: decide who you want to put out there to match 1070 00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:09,359 Speaker 11: up to Stevens. But you know, as as Brownie pointed out, 1071 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:11,640 Speaker 11: They've gotten a lot better on the back end since 1072 00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,440 Speaker 11: they made the switch week eleven to make Kyle Hamilton 1073 00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 11: essentially a safety. And another player that's been really really 1074 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:20,600 Speaker 11: good for them is our Darius Washington. He's been a 1075 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:23,400 Speaker 11: really good player over these last five or six weeks. 1076 00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:26,880 Speaker 11: He's the other safety. So you know they've become a 1077 00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:29,640 Speaker 11: good defense. But I think if you're if you're thinking 1078 00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:33,600 Speaker 11: past game, the right corner Stevens is more than likely 1079 00:55:33,680 --> 00:55:34,760 Speaker 11: the one you'll want to attack. 1080 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:41,480 Speaker 2: What do you make of Joe Brady's bunch formations tight 1081 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 2: to the line? Yeah, it seems to have created confusion 1082 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:50,040 Speaker 2: with coverage assignments. It certainly did last week for the Broncos. 1083 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:53,040 Speaker 2: It has earlier in the season as well. Do you 1084 00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:56,400 Speaker 2: think it can catch Baltimore a couple of times with 1085 00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:57,320 Speaker 2: that kind of scheming? 1086 00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:01,800 Speaker 11: Yes, I mean, obviously it's a matter of what the 1087 00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,800 Speaker 11: coverages and given situations. It's funny you mentioned that, Brownie, 1088 00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:06,960 Speaker 11: because the piece I did in the matchup show this 1089 00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:11,080 Speaker 11: week was the Samuel touchdown, and which was one of 1090 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 11: the best just in terms of getting into the weeds 1091 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:17,920 Speaker 11: of what game planning is and what motion does and 1092 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 11: what bunch does. Was as good a play as I've 1093 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:23,319 Speaker 11: seen in one I really loved breaking down. 1094 00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:23,839 Speaker 2: Now. 1095 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:26,240 Speaker 11: That was a third and six play and the Broncos 1096 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:28,719 Speaker 11: were in man coverage, but they were played but it 1097 00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 11: was bunch and they went four strong as well, because 1098 00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:34,719 Speaker 11: what they did is they shifted Tyd Johnson to the 1099 00:56:34,840 --> 00:56:37,799 Speaker 11: side of the three receiver bunch and they actually caught 1100 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 11: Sir Tan. Sir Ten was the one who got stuck 1101 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,080 Speaker 11: on that play because they were playing man, but they 1102 00:56:43,120 --> 00:56:47,120 Speaker 11: were also playing releases. So the question is what are 1103 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 11: the situations in which they're going to get man. I 1104 00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:53,440 Speaker 11: did some research and you know, our matchup team here 1105 00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:56,879 Speaker 11: did some research and for instance, third and six to nine, 1106 00:56:57,320 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 11: the Ravens this year have played almost fifty percent man coverage. Now, 1107 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 11: assuming they stay with what they've done all year, you know, again, 1108 00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:07,239 Speaker 11: you know, this is what coaches do. You know, this 1109 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:09,640 Speaker 11: is what staffs do. You know, they look at all 1110 00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 11: this stuff and then see how they want to attack 1111 00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 11: and given situations, and obviously that particular play was a 1112 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:18,040 Speaker 11: great example of understanding what they were going to get 1113 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:20,360 Speaker 11: and breaking it down. You need to be able to 1114 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:23,400 Speaker 11: do that against the Ravens because you're not necessarily going 1115 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:24,800 Speaker 11: to get a ton of opportunities. 1116 00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:29,720 Speaker 3: Flipping it to Buffalo's defense. When you look at what 1117 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:33,560 Speaker 3: the Ravens are successful at doing on offense, Derrick Henry 1118 00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:35,800 Speaker 3: and Lamar Jackson are a big part of that and 1119 00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:39,840 Speaker 3: comparing it to how Buffalo's defense plays, in your opinion, 1120 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,920 Speaker 3: with the tape that you've watched this week, what is 1121 00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:47,320 Speaker 3: the recipe to slowing down that offense when it comes 1122 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:49,320 Speaker 3: to how Buffalo's defense plays. 1123 00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's a tough This is a tough matchup because 1124 00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:54,760 Speaker 11: you know, one thing that the Ravens did last week 1125 00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 11: which they hadn't really done all year, and again we 1126 00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:59,360 Speaker 11: don't know if they'll do it this week. They could. 1127 00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 11: They played sixteen snaps with six offensive linemen. That's not 1128 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:07,720 Speaker 11: something they had done very much so, if at all. So, 1129 00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:10,160 Speaker 11: they had a lot of big people, and we know 1130 00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 11: that the Bills played Nickel pretty much every snap. Now 1131 00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 11: does that change this week? That's another question in this 1132 00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:21,680 Speaker 11: game because one thing about the Ravens is they play 1133 00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:24,920 Speaker 11: with a lot of big people. And Zay Flowers likely 1134 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:26,040 Speaker 11: to be out again Brownie. 1135 00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 2: Do you know he didn't practice again today? So I 1136 00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:30,880 Speaker 2: would say it's trending towards him now. 1137 00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:34,600 Speaker 11: All right, So given that, you know, last week in 1138 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,400 Speaker 11: their game against the Steelers, they only played with three 1139 00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:40,640 Speaker 11: wide receivers on the field on eight snaps. They played 1140 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:44,840 Speaker 11: basically base offensive personnel in one form or another the 1141 00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:47,480 Speaker 11: entire game, So they put a lot of big people 1142 00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 11: on the field. There were times they had six offensive 1143 00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:53,800 Speaker 11: linemen recard and two tight ends. So the question is 1144 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:56,800 Speaker 11: when you're playing them, what do you do on defense? 1145 00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 11: Are you staying with your nickel? Do you then go 1146 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:00,000 Speaker 11: to three linebacks? 1147 00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 10: You know? 1148 00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:03,600 Speaker 11: Are you're trying to match their size? Yet they still 1149 00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:07,400 Speaker 11: have tremendous speed. That's see, that's the problem you face 1150 00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:10,600 Speaker 11: with them because obviously Derrick Henry, who are looking at here, 1151 00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:14,280 Speaker 11: he has tremendous speed, but so does Lamar Jackson. So 1152 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 11: their combination of speed and size and power is a 1153 00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 11: really difficult one to play against. And I'm really anxious 1154 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:23,760 Speaker 11: to see what the Bills are going to do in 1155 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:26,320 Speaker 11: terms of the personnel they put out there. What's your 1156 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:28,560 Speaker 11: sense that you think you're gonna We're gonna see Dorian 1157 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,960 Speaker 11: Williams playing more snaps this week and more of a 1158 00:59:31,040 --> 00:59:31,560 Speaker 11: four to three. 1159 00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they're going to try to counter the 1160 00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:39,919 Speaker 2: personnel with bigger personnel. And you know, Dorian Williams isn't 1161 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:42,040 Speaker 2: Taron Johnson in terms of speed, but he's probably the 1162 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:45,200 Speaker 2: fastest linebacker on the roster. And back in Week four, 1163 00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,520 Speaker 2: when they didn't have Bernard Milana or Taron Johnson in 1164 00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 2: the line rap and Taylor Rap went out with a 1165 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:54,160 Speaker 2: head injury, they played three linebackers on thirty percent of 1166 00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:57,680 Speaker 2: the snaps. So they did it in Week four. I 1167 00:59:57,760 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 2: would anticipate they. 1168 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:00,880 Speaker 11: Do it again, I would think. 1169 01:00:00,920 --> 01:00:03,840 Speaker 2: So it's a foreign concept. We know their nickel is 1170 01:00:03,840 --> 01:00:06,280 Speaker 2: their bread and butter. We know that, but I don't 1171 01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:10,080 Speaker 2: think it's it's far fetched to think that they're gonna 1172 01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 2: use based defense a heavy amount, especially if they go jumbo. 1173 01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:17,160 Speaker 11: Yeah, and I would agree with that, And then that 1174 01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:19,840 Speaker 11: just raises the question then and you're right, Fortunately Dorian 1175 01:00:19,840 --> 01:00:22,800 Speaker 11: Williams can run because as I said, not only are 1176 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 11: the Ravens powerful, but they're fast, you know, And you know, 1177 01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:31,280 Speaker 11: then you get to the past game, which you know 1178 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:34,720 Speaker 11: is could well be tight end based, because say Flowers 1179 01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:37,120 Speaker 11: appears to be out again, so it could well be 1180 01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 11: tight end based. They play a lot of snaps with 1181 01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:43,160 Speaker 11: two tight ends some with three tight ends, and then 1182 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:46,040 Speaker 11: you have the Lamar factor. You know, we saw you 1183 01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:49,160 Speaker 11: mentioned that Milano did not play Week four but last week, 1184 01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:51,560 Speaker 11: and they used Milano quite a bit as a spy 1185 01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:54,520 Speaker 11: on bow Nicks. You know, it's very possible you could 1186 01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 11: see that again. I mean, I think they're going to 1187 01:00:56,840 --> 01:00:59,280 Speaker 11: do that. I think they are going to spy on Lamar. 1188 01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:02,480 Speaker 11: You know, that's situational. Obviously that's not something you're going 1189 01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:05,840 Speaker 11: to see, you know, fifty times, but I think situationally 1190 01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 11: you will see that. 1191 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:11,880 Speaker 3: I asked Ryan Fitzpatrick about this just a segment ago, 1192 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:14,520 Speaker 3: but interested to hear your opinion as well. What do 1193 01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,320 Speaker 3: you believe this game comes down to? 1194 01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:25,439 Speaker 11: I mean, if I would, my guess is, and again 1195 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 11: I don't know how weather impacts it. That's that's impossible 1196 01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:29,320 Speaker 11: for me to know. So I'm gonna pretend that the 1197 01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:33,600 Speaker 11: weather's not a factor in the game. I think this game, 1198 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:35,680 Speaker 11: I think the Bills are going to have to score, 1199 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:37,640 Speaker 11: and they've scored all year. But I think that I 1200 01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:40,200 Speaker 11: don't see this game, and maybe I'm wrong, you know, 1201 01:01:40,280 --> 01:01:42,400 Speaker 11: maybe you guys disagree. I don't see this as a 1202 01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:45,800 Speaker 11: seventeen thirteen game. I think this, I think the Bills 1203 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:48,960 Speaker 11: offense is going to have to be able to sustain 1204 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:54,200 Speaker 11: and score. And you know, I think because look up 1205 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,360 Speaker 11: to this point in the season, it's been really hard 1206 01:01:56,440 --> 01:01:59,280 Speaker 11: to stop the Ravens. They're very difficult to play against. 1207 01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:03,160 Speaker 11: Now teams you know, have stopped them. I think you 1208 01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:06,000 Speaker 11: you need to be able to stop the run game 1209 01:02:06,120 --> 01:02:08,720 Speaker 11: first and foremost, that that's really who they are. They've 1210 01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:11,280 Speaker 11: had a lot of games this year where Lamar Jackson 1211 01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:14,720 Speaker 11: has only thrown twenty or twenty one balls, but he's 1212 01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:17,480 Speaker 11: you know, rushed fourteen times for eighty nine yards. And 1213 01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:20,920 Speaker 11: whether they're design runs or whether they're scrambles, you know, 1214 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:24,400 Speaker 11: I think that's such a critical critical piece of this game. 1215 01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:29,480 Speaker 11: And you know, I think I think the Bills there 1216 01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:32,000 Speaker 11: needs to be some explosive plays. I think this is 1217 01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:35,800 Speaker 11: a hard defense to go twelve plays eighty five yards 1218 01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 11: on a consistent basis. Maybe I'm wrong, I hope I am, 1219 01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,360 Speaker 11: But you know, I think that they're going to need 1220 01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:43,520 Speaker 11: to create some explosive plays in this game. 1221 01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:47,720 Speaker 2: All right, Greg, It's gonna be fun to watch it, 1222 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 2: for sure, I know, I can't wait. 1223 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:52,080 Speaker 11: It's the last game on Sunday night. And we're actually 1224 01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:54,120 Speaker 11: supposed to get snow here, so you know, I'll be 1225 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:56,240 Speaker 11: it'll be snowing here and I'll be watching that, and 1226 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:58,240 Speaker 11: of course it'll be snowing during the Eagles game too, 1227 01:02:58,240 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 11: which is the early game Sunday here in Philly. But 1228 01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 11: I'm really looking forward to. This is the one for 1229 01:03:04,040 --> 01:03:06,120 Speaker 11: me for this weekend, you know, the one I'm most 1230 01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:06,880 Speaker 11: excited about. 1231 01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:10,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a headliner for everybody. Enjoy it and we'll 1232 01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:11,680 Speaker 2: catch up with you next week. 1233 01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:13,000 Speaker 11: All right, appreciate it. 1234 01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:17,320 Speaker 2: Thanks, yep. That's great. Co Sale, senior producer from NFL Films, 1235 01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,000 Speaker 2: joining us as he does every week, to talk to 1236 01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:23,240 Speaker 2: exes and o's about the upcoming game. We do have 1237 01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:27,000 Speaker 2: to pivot, though, and we're gonna move on to this 1238 01:03:27,160 --> 01:03:32,280 Speaker 2: week's Collision course, brought to you by Gabe's Collision. Gabe's Collision, 1239 01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:34,720 Speaker 2: the official auto collision repair center of the Buffalo Bills 1240 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:37,720 Speaker 2: get back in the game, and this week it's Buffalo's 1241 01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:43,880 Speaker 2: defensive front seven versus Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson and Maddie. 1242 01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:46,080 Speaker 2: I know we've talked about this a lot already this week, 1243 01:03:46,680 --> 01:03:51,880 Speaker 2: but I think the trickiest thing is Lamar as a 1244 01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:56,000 Speaker 2: ballfaker because he is so good at hiding the ball 1245 01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 2: and faking. And there are times I even said it 1246 01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:03,520 Speaker 2: eyes where he even fools me calling a game. I like, 1247 01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 2: he keeps it and I was like, oh, he's like 1248 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:07,880 Speaker 2: I got a pause for a second. I can't imagine 1249 01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 2: how that is on the field to decipher. And when 1250 01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:14,360 Speaker 2: you have two future Hall of Famers as the options, 1251 01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:16,120 Speaker 2: it's tough. 1252 01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 3: And Jackson will will keep it until the very last second. 1253 01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:23,640 Speaker 3: So as a defense, you're playing the game of weight 1254 01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:28,080 Speaker 3: weight weight wait, react, and because Jackson holds it for 1255 01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:31,120 Speaker 3: so long, it's hard to get that jump on the 1256 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,440 Speaker 3: play and you might get You might get fooled a 1257 01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:37,760 Speaker 3: couple times because of it. Within that the defensive front 1258 01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:42,520 Speaker 3: against Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry, I also wonder are 1259 01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:44,720 Speaker 3: the Ravens gonna come out like they did against the 1260 01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:49,439 Speaker 3: Steelers and just run Lamar, run Lamar, run Lamar over 1261 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:53,480 Speaker 3: and over again, and then get Henry involved after Jackson 1262 01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:56,160 Speaker 3: has you know, fifty rushing yards under his belt. 1263 01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:58,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of like a thunder and lightning combo. 1264 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:01,400 Speaker 2: Not that Derek. He is slow by any means, but 1265 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:05,200 Speaker 2: he's not as fast as Lamar or as sudden and shifty, 1266 01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:08,640 Speaker 2: and so it's almost like, you know, you bring in 1267 01:05:09,440 --> 01:05:13,240 Speaker 2: the middle relief pitcher who throws junk balls all day, 1268 01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:15,880 Speaker 2: and then you bring in, you know, the closer who's 1269 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:18,760 Speaker 2: throwing ninety eight ninety nine mile an hour heaters and 1270 01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:23,080 Speaker 2: adjusting is hard too, so it is a big challenge. 1271 01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:26,439 Speaker 2: I know we've mentioned this umptyen number of times this week, 1272 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:30,040 Speaker 2: but I think having Bernard and Milano in the lineup 1273 01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:33,840 Speaker 2: is a huge difference. No disrespect to Baile Inspector or 1274 01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 2: Dorian Williams, but these are guys who have played against 1275 01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:41,320 Speaker 2: Lamar before. These are guys who have seen this offense before, 1276 01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:45,480 Speaker 2: so they they kind of know what to expect. And 1277 01:05:45,600 --> 01:05:49,040 Speaker 2: I think the eye discipline is going to be better 1278 01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:52,000 Speaker 2: than it was back in Week four when they kind 1279 01:05:52,040 --> 01:05:54,480 Speaker 2: of got caught up in some of the misdirection stuff 1280 01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:56,880 Speaker 2: that they're throwing at your pre snap and they got 1281 01:05:56,920 --> 01:05:58,880 Speaker 2: their eyes in the wrong place, and your eyes just 1282 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:01,400 Speaker 2: have to be out of place for one second, and 1283 01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:04,560 Speaker 2: even when you realize what's happening and going on a 1284 01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:09,280 Speaker 2: second later against this offense and those two guys, it's 1285 01:06:09,320 --> 01:06:11,360 Speaker 2: already too late. And now you're giving up an eight 1286 01:06:11,480 --> 01:06:13,680 Speaker 2: or a ten yard play. It's a fresh set of 1287 01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:16,920 Speaker 2: downs for Baltimore and here we go again. So I 1288 01:06:17,040 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 2: think having those two players won a super instinctive player 1289 01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,720 Speaker 2: into rel Bernard as a young VET yes, and Matt 1290 01:06:22,840 --> 01:06:24,840 Speaker 2: Mlano is an eight year VET who's seen everything under 1291 01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:27,160 Speaker 2: the sun at this level, I think will make them 1292 01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:29,640 Speaker 2: a more consistent run front. 1293 01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:32,840 Speaker 3: This week, it's about reading your keys and we're through 1294 01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:35,760 Speaker 3: the regular season into the playoffs. I think that time 1295 01:06:35,960 --> 01:06:40,000 Speaker 3: on task of just playing every single week since the 1296 01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:43,400 Speaker 3: beginning of September, you're playing at your best right now. 1297 01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:45,920 Speaker 3: I also think back to win the two faced off 1298 01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:48,680 Speaker 3: against each other in Week four.

I appreciate the love. Hey, 1323 01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:30,760 Speaker 3: Syracuse is a great school. They're known for their journalism. 1324 01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,680 Speaker 3: I think it starts, Yeah, it starts there. I went 1325 01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:37,519 Speaker 3: to Maszoo, which is also a great journalism and broadcast school. 1326 01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:41,560 Speaker 3: I think it starts with schooling and learning everything you 1327 01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:44,680 Speaker 3: can know about being a journalist and not just being 1328 01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 3: in front of the camera. A lot of my time 1329 01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:51,000 Speaker 3: at Miszoo was spent behind the camera. I learned how 1330 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:53,560 Speaker 3: to shoot and edit video, and that's what's going to 1331 01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:56,040 Speaker 3: make you the most marketable for your first job. And 1332 01:08:56,160 --> 01:08:59,519 Speaker 3: then from there on you continue to specialize in your 1333 01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:01,559 Speaker 3: craft and what you want to do. But I think 1334 01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:04,760 Speaker 3: it starts there, and also it starts with learning as 1335 01:09:04,880 --> 01:09:07,439 Speaker 3: much as you can about the sport that you're covering. 1336 01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:10,320 Speaker 3: Don't be afraid to ask questions, don't be afraid to 1337 01:09:10,360 --> 01:09:12,320 Speaker 3: study it and learn the x's and o's, because I 1338 01:09:12,360 --> 01:09:15,880 Speaker 3: think the smarter you're sound, the more respected you are 1339 01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:16,759 Speaker 3: by your listeners. 1340 01:09:17,040 --> 01:09:19,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, good advice there. And it's a multimedia world, so 1341 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:22,560 Speaker 2: it's better you're more marketable, Like Matty said, if you 1342 01:09:22,560 --> 01:09:24,479 Speaker 2: can do just about everything under the sun. And that's 1343 01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:29,320 Speaker 2: not just print journalism, broadcast journalism, it's all of the above. 1344 01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 2: So try to make sure you're as well rounded as 1345 01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:33,799 Speaker 2: possible through your schooling. But you'll get a great education 1346 01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:38,640 Speaker 2: at Syracuse. Let's go to James in Rochester. Let me 1347 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:41,439 Speaker 2: pull him up here.

I really 1354 01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:59,160 Speaker 7: think he is going to prove himself to be the 1355 01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:01,880 Speaker 7: man who is and when he saw his name on 1356 01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:05,800 Speaker 7: the back of the jersey other than that gold Bill's. 1357 01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:09,400 Speaker 2: Okay, it sounds good, James, Thanks for the call.

I just want to say, people 1361 01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:25,759 Speaker 10: are nervous about this game. They are really nervous. 1362 01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:26,519 Speaker 2: I am not. 1363 01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:32,280 Speaker 10: I believe. I have confidence in our young men, the 1364 01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:37,320 Speaker 10: Buffalo Bills. They're gonna do this. Joshua and company is 1365 01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:41,240 Speaker 10: gonna get this done whatever however they have to do it. 1366 01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:42,679 Speaker 3: I believe. 1367 01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:45,760 Speaker 10: And I know we've been here and saying a year 1368 01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:50,320 Speaker 10: after year. You know we don't know bout this time. 1369 01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:55,680 Speaker 10: It's their time. So everybody just calm down. I'm just 1370 01:10:55,720 --> 01:11:00,520 Speaker 10: saying people, I know anybody. They will be fine. They 1371 01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:02,000 Speaker 10: know they have to do all them there at the 1372 01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 10: same dream the Lombardi Trophy, so they will take care 1373 01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:10,759 Speaker 10: of business. So watch them do this. Thank you guys, 1374 01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:12,559 Speaker 10: God bless all right, Sandra. 1375 01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:16,320 Speaker 2: I appreciate your faith. You have a lot of faith 1376 01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:19,000 Speaker 2: and hopefully you can spread that around because there are 1377 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:22,040 Speaker 2: a lot of people already biting their fingernails about this one. 1378 01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:28,040 Speaker 2: And look, I think everybody innately that why even casually 1379 01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:31,719 Speaker 2: watches football, has a healthy respect for the Baltimore Ravens 1380 01:11:31,760 --> 01:11:33,439 Speaker 2: and the team that they are in the franchise that 1381 01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:38,479 Speaker 2: they've been over decades. But I think most of the 1382 01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:43,000 Speaker 2: nervousness lies. I think in the fact that it's an 1383 01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:47,240 Speaker 2: all or nothing situation. You win, you move on, you lose, 1384 01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:49,680 Speaker 2: you go home. I think that's what gets everybody so 1385 01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:50,400 Speaker 2: dang nervous. 1386 01:11:50,479 --> 01:11:52,800 Speaker 3: And that's how the NFL is. It's not like it's 1387 01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:55,759 Speaker 3: not like any other leagues where the playoffs are around 1388 01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:58,599 Speaker 3: of x amount of games and it's not one and done. 1389 01:11:58,680 --> 01:12:02,719 Speaker 3: It's let's see this match up through a series, and yeah, 1390 01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:06,320 Speaker 3: you've worked to this point. There is so much riding 1391 01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:09,360 Speaker 3: on this game. It started with the draft and then 1392 01:12:09,479 --> 01:12:12,880 Speaker 3: training camp and then the beginning of the season, and 1393 01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:15,800 Speaker 3: you look at the group, you look at the team 1394 01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:17,920 Speaker 3: and the Bills, and you just see how much work 1395 01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:20,560 Speaker 3: they've put in and how much this game means. So 1396 01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:23,160 Speaker 3: I get it. It's a lot riding on this game 1397 01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:25,479 Speaker 3: and the players are there too. They feel it. They 1398 01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:28,639 Speaker 3: want to play their best on Sunday because they don't 1399 01:12:28,680 --> 01:12:30,920 Speaker 3: want to go home. They want to continue on in 1400 01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:31,640 Speaker 3: the playoffs. 1401 01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:35,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, so appreciate the faith, Sandra. We'll all try to 1402 01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 2: keep the faith with you. Being that resolutely confident is impressive, 1403 01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:43,320 Speaker 2: especially with all the scar tissue that Bill's fans have 1404 01:12:43,960 --> 01:12:48,360 Speaker 2: over the years. Here it is fans this week's battle 1405 01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:52,080 Speaker 2: boat when the Bills host the Ravens. On the Baltimore 1406 01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:56,799 Speaker 2: side of this gigantic monstrosity of food, lump crab, pickled onion, 1407 01:12:56,880 --> 01:12:59,960 Speaker 2: parsley lemon, and old bay ioli, and on the Buffer 1408 01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:04,400 Speaker 2: buffalo chicken Karen and celery slaw and blue cheese, all 1409 01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:08,000 Speaker 2: of this, of course topped on top of waffle fries. 1410 01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:11,120 Speaker 2: Get your Sunday at the game available at the Miller 1411 01:13:11,200 --> 01:13:14,560 Speaker 2: Lite Brewpub, the Toyota Club, and the East side of 1412 01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:17,640 Speaker 2: the Pepsi Club.

You may want to eat it 1416 01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:29,200 Speaker 2: up in one of the clubs, though, because otherwise it's 1417 01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:31,160 Speaker 2: going to be frozen solid by the time you get 1418 01:13:31,200 --> 01:13:32,720 Speaker 2: back to your seat.

And I know 1465 01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:52,000 Speaker 13: there's a lot of pipe around the quarterback. I won't 1466 01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:55,960 Speaker 13: say his name from the Ravens. We have our own MVP. 1467 01:15:56,479 --> 01:15:58,920 Speaker 13: We have our own MVP, and I feel very confident 1468 01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:02,559 Speaker 13: that justice will be done and Josh Wall be selected. 1469 01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:05,280 Speaker 10: So this is an energy and it's just. 1470 01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:08,519 Speaker 13: A reason just to get up and then tolerate the colds, 1471 01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:12,040 Speaker 13: and fans will be showing up after a great time talgating. 1472 01:16:12,320 --> 01:16:14,320 Speaker 13: Are going to just be in for a real thrill 1473 01:16:14,439 --> 01:16:16,800 Speaker 13: to see that win be brought home right in our 1474 01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:19,760 Speaker 13: home with stadium. So I was there last weekend and 1475 01:16:20,200 --> 01:16:23,160 Speaker 13: I went right to the crowds and high fived everybody, 1476 01:16:23,280 --> 01:16:28,920 Speaker 13: and you know, just everybody. It's just it's hard to describe. 1477 01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:31,639 Speaker 13: I gets so excited about but the electricity is palpable 1478 01:16:31,720 --> 01:16:34,120 Speaker 13: and Western New York deserves this right now. We're so 1479 01:16:34,240 --> 01:16:37,160 Speaker 13: grateful for the Bills for bringing this us along on 1480 01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:39,240 Speaker 13: this incredible, incredible ride. 1481 01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:43,080 Speaker 2: And so I do want to you know, you were 1482 01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:45,080 Speaker 2: at the game last week, so I'm sure you've seen 1483 01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:47,479 Speaker 2: a lot of the progress going on across the street 1484 01:16:47,520 --> 01:16:51,280 Speaker 2: as well. What do you think so far? Things are 1485 01:16:51,320 --> 01:16:52,360 Speaker 2: going up fast over there? 1486 01:16:53,400 --> 01:16:54,120 Speaker 7: They sure are. 1487 01:16:54,200 --> 01:16:56,519 Speaker 13: And I said, I need this done in time for 1488 01:16:56,600 --> 01:17:00,160 Speaker 13: the twenty sixth season, and it will be done. I 1489 01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 13: you know, get out there every so often, but I 1490 01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:04,519 Speaker 13: definitely was taking a lot of selfies with people who 1491 01:17:04,560 --> 01:17:07,120 Speaker 13: wanted that in the background because the fans excited about it, 1492 01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:10,280 Speaker 13: and I think it looks great. And the fact that 1493 01:17:10,600 --> 01:17:12,160 Speaker 13: you know, more than half of the fans will be 1494 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:14,800 Speaker 13: covered up from you know, the snow in the rain, 1495 01:17:14,880 --> 01:17:17,320 Speaker 13: I think that's positive. But we still want to be outdoors. 1496 01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:19,479 Speaker 13: We still want that snow to come down to give 1497 01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:22,800 Speaker 13: us that hometown advantage when the weather's tough and we 1498 01:17:22,880 --> 01:17:24,599 Speaker 13: know how to handle it and the other teams don't. 1499 01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:26,920 Speaker 13: So I'd love the fact that we're going to keep 1500 01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:28,840 Speaker 13: it open air, but it is going to be a 1501 01:17:28,920 --> 01:17:32,120 Speaker 13: great place and it's exactly what Western New Yorkers deserve. 1502 01:17:32,200 --> 01:17:34,280 Speaker 13: This team deserves nothing but the best. 1503 01:17:35,840 --> 01:17:38,639 Speaker 3: You've watched this team throughout the season. You were here 1504 01:17:38,840 --> 01:17:41,719 Speaker 3: last week getting to witness a big win in Buffalo. 1505 01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:46,440 Speaker 3: When you're thinking about this matchup, what is your intuition 1506 01:17:46,800 --> 01:17:50,200 Speaker 3: telling you about which player could have a great game. 1507 01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:54,439 Speaker 13: Well, I'm focused on all of our players. I mean, 1508 01:17:54,479 --> 01:17:57,639 Speaker 13: they're extraordinary athletes and the way they have gelled together 1509 01:17:57,840 --> 01:18:00,880 Speaker 13: as a real team. And you know, our coach deserves 1510 01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:04,320 Speaker 13: a lot of credit for just creating that culture where 1511 01:18:04,360 --> 01:18:06,160 Speaker 13: people feel they're part of a family. 1512 01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:08,040 Speaker 10: And it's so you know, it. 1513 01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:10,760 Speaker 13: Really feels unique compared to other teams that you watch. 1514 01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:12,880 Speaker 13: There's people that seem joyful to be out there, and 1515 01:18:12,920 --> 01:18:15,920 Speaker 13: they really truly like each other. So I'm not gonna 1516 01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:18,080 Speaker 13: I'm like the mom of a big family. I can't 1517 01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:22,480 Speaker 13: play favorites here. But you know, Josh, it's just extraordinary. 1518 01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:25,200 Speaker 13: I don't know a single game that went by where 1519 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:28,040 Speaker 13: we didn't say, well, there's another record broken by Josh Allener, 1520 01:18:28,160 --> 01:18:31,760 Speaker 13: record setting, record setting. It's it's amazing. And so I've 1521 01:18:31,800 --> 01:18:34,120 Speaker 13: been watching the Bills and I'm going to date myself 1522 01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:36,840 Speaker 13: here since Jack Kemp was a quarterback. I was a 1523 01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:39,439 Speaker 13: little kid, but it's all we talked about in my 1524 01:18:39,560 --> 01:18:42,920 Speaker 13: home was Jack Kemp, and Jack Kemp lived in Hamburg, 1525 01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 13: where I grew up. So I've been following this for 1526 01:18:45,439 --> 01:18:49,040 Speaker 13: such a long time, and you know what it feels 1527 01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:51,639 Speaker 13: really different is the fans are just feeling really positive 1528 01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:54,400 Speaker 13: about things. There's an energy here and so this year 1529 01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:56,640 Speaker 13: feels really like be ever going to do it. But 1530 01:18:56,720 --> 01:18:58,719 Speaker 13: I can't say anything that's going to jinx it because 1531 01:18:58,720 --> 01:19:01,800 Speaker 13: I'm told not to do that. But I think this 1532 01:19:01,960 --> 01:19:05,559 Speaker 13: is here that you know, and I'll tell you people 1533 01:19:05,720 --> 01:19:08,920 Speaker 13: downstate and fans who are of the Jets and Giants, 1534 01:19:09,960 --> 01:19:12,040 Speaker 13: they're really tired of me talking about the Bills, but 1535 01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:15,280 Speaker 13: that's okay. Guess what one team plays in the state, 1536 01:19:15,320 --> 01:19:17,040 Speaker 13: and I remind them of that all the time. 1537 01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:21,360 Speaker 2: Well, we appreciate you hopping on with us and sending 1538 01:19:21,400 --> 01:19:23,679 Speaker 2: the Bills you're well wishes. We know if you can't 1539 01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:25,280 Speaker 2: make it out here this weekend, we'll miss you. But 1540 01:19:25,320 --> 01:19:27,559 Speaker 2: I'm sure you'll be finding a Bill's backers bar somewhere 1541 01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:29,760 Speaker 2: in Albany to take in this game with. 1542 01:19:29,960 --> 01:19:33,040 Speaker 13: Some fellow fans got up when I had to find 1543 01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:34,760 Speaker 13: a little apartment in New York City because I spend 1544 01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:37,839 Speaker 13: a lot of time here. I found a place called Bravest. 1545 01:19:38,120 --> 01:19:41,320 Speaker 13: It was dedicated to the firefighters of nine to eleven 1546 01:19:41,400 --> 01:19:45,040 Speaker 13: and their families. It's called Bravest. But I walked past it. 1547 01:19:45,400 --> 01:19:48,519 Speaker 13: There was a Bill's flags flying outside. I walked inside. 1548 01:19:48,560 --> 01:19:51,320 Speaker 13: There's bills mellibilia all over. I said, I need to 1549 01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:54,000 Speaker 13: be walking distance to this bar, so when I can 1550 01:19:54,080 --> 01:19:55,640 Speaker 13: watch it, I can walk right down the street and 1551 01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:58,280 Speaker 13: walk home again. So that's my sports bar in New 1552 01:19:58,360 --> 01:19:59,920 Speaker 13: York City. And there'll be a lot of other fans 1553 01:20:00,160 --> 01:20:02,760 Speaker 13: joining me on Sunday night, so I can't wait. 1554 01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:05,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I was just gonna say, well, we know 1555 01:20:05,479 --> 01:20:07,439 Speaker 2: where you're going to be on Sunday night, so enjoy 1556 01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:10,559 Speaker 2: the game and hopefully there's more games to be played 1557 01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:12,639 Speaker 2: after this one. Thanks, Governor, appreciate your time. 1558 01:20:13,520 --> 01:20:14,720 Speaker 13: All right, go Bills, bye bye. 1559 01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:18,960 Speaker 2: All right, that's Governor Kathy Hulkel joining US. Hamburg native 1560 01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:22,679 Speaker 2: really just kind of worked her way up in public service. 1561 01:20:22,760 --> 01:20:25,679 Speaker 2: Began her career at her local town board, the Hamburg 1562 01:20:25,760 --> 01:20:28,200 Speaker 2: Town Board, before serving as Erie County Clerk and then 1563 01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:30,840 Speaker 2: as a Member of Congress for New York's twenty six 1564 01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:34,280 Speaker 2: congressional district before she was lieutenant governor and then first 1565 01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:37,519 Speaker 2: female governor of New York State. So good to hear 1566 01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:40,479 Speaker 2: from her. Is right back to her Hamburg routs, saying 1567 01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:42,280 Speaker 2: go Bill. So that was great. Glad to have her on. 1568 01:20:42,840 --> 01:20:45,479 Speaker 2: And obviously she's happy with the progress going on across 1569 01:20:45,520 --> 01:20:47,080 Speaker 2: the street from the stadium as well with the new 1570 01:20:47,120 --> 01:20:50,120 Speaker 2: place going up in short order, knowing her involvement with that, 1571 01:20:50,360 --> 01:20:53,200 Speaker 2: so that was a lot of fun. It's like she 1572 01:20:53,320 --> 01:20:55,280 Speaker 2: was a cheerleader for the bills there. That was great. 1573 01:20:55,400 --> 01:20:57,800 Speaker 3: I know it was great. She she was here last week. 1574 01:20:57,840 --> 01:20:59,639 Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, you might be our good luck charm. 1575 01:20:59,840 --> 01:21:01,160 Speaker 3: Might have to come back this weekend. 1576 01:21:01,520 --> 01:21:03,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, and she wouldn't mind standing next to us because 1577 01:21:03,760 --> 01:21:05,760 Speaker 2: we're actually two people who wouldn't make her look short. 1578 01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:07,840 Speaker 2: She's like a five foot nothing, just like the two 1579 01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:09,800 Speaker 2: of us. So she'd be all too happy to pose 1580 01:21:09,840 --> 01:21:11,240 Speaker 2: for a picture with the two of us because she 1581 01:21:11,240 --> 01:21:13,439 Speaker 2: wouldn't look short at all and wouldn't need to stand 1582 01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:15,479 Speaker 2: on a box or anything. But we got to get 1583 01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:17,320 Speaker 2: back to the phone lines. At eight oh three oh 1584 01:21:17,439 --> 01:21:19,800 Speaker 2: five point fifty one eighty eight five fifty two five 1585 01:21:19,920 --> 01:21:22,599 Speaker 2: fifty as we're out here live at Northtown Toyota eleven 1586 01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:26,040 Speaker 2: thirty five Millisport Highway in Amherst. But a guy who's 1587 01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:29,000 Speaker 2: been waiting patiently to jump on Kevin and Hamburg, let's 1588 01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:30,479 Speaker 2: go to Hey, what do you got for seventh thinks for. 1589 01:21:30,479 --> 01:21:33,360 Speaker 9: Taking my call? Sure, thank you for taking my call. 1590 01:21:33,800 --> 01:21:35,920 Speaker 9: I think I agree with Greg to sell that we 1591 01:21:36,080 --> 01:21:39,000 Speaker 9: need to get some big splash plays, but we also 1592 01:21:39,160 --> 01:21:42,280 Speaker 9: need to steal a couple of possessions. Maybe get a turnover, 1593 01:21:42,600 --> 01:21:45,880 Speaker 9: maybe a good punt return, something like that. Maybe even 1594 01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:48,479 Speaker 9: get a couple of big passes and appearances on the 1595 01:21:48,600 --> 01:21:52,519 Speaker 9: depense on on their de beense. Because every team usually 1596 01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:54,840 Speaker 9: has a player on defense that has a penalty problem. 1597 01:21:55,240 --> 01:21:57,840 Speaker 9: Maybe Joe Brady and Josh Allen knew who it is 1598 01:21:58,280 --> 01:22:00,960 Speaker 9: because there's always someone that has a like exam why 1599 01:22:00,960 --> 01:22:03,400 Speaker 9: I show it, Dallas, It was Deron Blant. You could 1600 01:22:03,439 --> 01:22:05,920 Speaker 9: burn him on passing interferences and you get a new 1601 01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:10,600 Speaker 9: set it down. So finding that guy and taking advantage 1602 01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:13,720 Speaker 9: of that, we get a couple of first down new 1603 01:22:14,080 --> 01:22:16,800 Speaker 9: get a free cheap first down here and there, something 1604 01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:19,679 Speaker 9: like that. So something like those I get. 1605 01:22:19,760 --> 01:22:22,879 Speaker 2: Sure I get what you're saying. I think Brandon Stevens 1606 01:22:22,920 --> 01:22:25,360 Speaker 2: would be that guy. He's been targeted a lot by 1607 01:22:25,439 --> 01:22:28,360 Speaker 2: opponents in the passing game, and the Bills targeted Riley 1608 01:22:28,439 --> 01:22:31,200 Speaker 2: Moss last week pretty effectively. They went right after him, 1609 01:22:31,520 --> 01:22:33,760 Speaker 2: and they did it in the Rams game too. I'm 1610 01:22:33,800 --> 01:22:36,360 Speaker 2: not gonna remember which one it was. It wasn't Darius Williams. 1611 01:22:36,439 --> 01:22:38,000 Speaker 2: It was the corner on the other side whose name 1612 01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:40,639 Speaker 2: escapes me. But in any event, the point is they 1613 01:22:40,720 --> 01:22:43,479 Speaker 2: have done a good job of finding the weak link 1614 01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:47,479 Speaker 2: in an opponent's secondary and targeting them and being effective 1615 01:22:47,920 --> 01:22:50,840 Speaker 2: in doing so. I almost forgot, Maddie. We have to 1616 01:22:50,960 --> 01:22:55,559 Speaker 2: get to tail gates Friday, presented by high marked blue Cross, 1617 01:22:55,680 --> 01:22:58,800 Speaker 2: blue shield high marked the official healthcare plan of the 1618 01:22:58,840 --> 01:23:03,400 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills becaused life. Let's see what you folks have 1619 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:05,840 Speaker 2: on the menus here.
