0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:42.599
<v Speaker 1>exciting time to be a Buffalo Bill and a fan

0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:54.200
<v Speaker 1>of the Buffalo Bills. Everybody, and welcome to the Sean

0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:58.120
<v Speaker 1>McDermott Show, presented by ECMC and Kalidah Health. The official

0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:00.959
<v Speaker 1>healthcare providers are the Buffalo Bills John Murphy, joined by

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Bill's head coach Sean McDermott and Sean good to see you.

0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Congratulations on the winning home against Washington. That was great. Yeah,

0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:09.600
<v Speaker 1>thanks Murph, I appreciate it. Good to see you as well.

0:01:09.720 --> 0:01:11.920
<v Speaker 1>It's interesting, you know, we heard you in the locker

0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:15.000
<v Speaker 1>room talk about how you want to your team to

0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:17.280
<v Speaker 1>stay humble and hungry. What do you have in mind there?

0:01:17.319 --> 0:01:21.200
<v Speaker 1>What are you thinking there? It's just you know, it's

0:01:21.240 --> 0:01:23.320
<v Speaker 1>an approach. It's a week to week league. It's a

0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:26.759
<v Speaker 1>day to day approach for us trying to continue to improve.

0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:30.200
<v Speaker 1>It's a growth mindset, and this league, if you relax,

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:32.399
<v Speaker 1>it'll come and bite you in the butt. That's not

0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:34.480
<v Speaker 1>the right mindset. We've got to stay, stay humble, and

0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:38.000
<v Speaker 1>stay hungry. Your team obviously not flawless. No team really

0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:41.399
<v Speaker 1>is flawless, but do have things to work on, areas

0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:44.200
<v Speaker 1>of improvement pending. And yet you're six and two. That's

0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:46.760
<v Speaker 1>got to feel pretty good. You must be gratified about that. Yeah,

0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:48.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm grateful to be a part of it. I really am.

0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:51.400
<v Speaker 1>There's good people in this building and this organization and

0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 1>players as well, and we've got a good locker room,

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:57.680
<v Speaker 1>good veteran leadership, and you know, we've been fortunate to

0:01:57.800 --> 0:02:00.360
<v Speaker 1>have the success we've had, and we understand that, and

0:02:01.240 --> 0:02:04.120
<v Speaker 1>yet we're realistic about where we are and what we

0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 1>have to improve on moving forward. Looking back to last

0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:09.480
<v Speaker 1>week's win over Washington, it's pretty clear that Adrian Peterson

0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:11.440
<v Speaker 1>has a lot of tread left on his tires, and

0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:13.320
<v Speaker 1>yet he had the big first half and you managed

0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:15.920
<v Speaker 1>to shut him and really Washington's offense down for the

0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:18.480
<v Speaker 1>most part in the second half. What changed? What did

0:02:18.520 --> 0:02:21.160
<v Speaker 1>you do differently in the second Well, adjustments at halftime.

0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:23.680
<v Speaker 1>To your point, he did have a big first half.

0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:26.560
<v Speaker 1>We weren't in our gap and playing with gap integrity

0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 1>as we define it, and so we made some adjustments.

0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:32.720
<v Speaker 1>Coach Frasier and the staff and the players on defense

0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:35.280
<v Speaker 1>made the appropriate adjustments at halftime and got it corrected.

0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:37.760
<v Speaker 1>Got another big game out of Tredevious White, who was

0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:40.200
<v Speaker 1>sort of in a different role. He was following receivers

0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:42.480
<v Speaker 1>a couple of times. You blitzed him at least on

0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:44.320
<v Speaker 1>one occasion. What does that say about what you might

0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:45.920
<v Speaker 1>be able to do with Tradevious, you know, in the

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:48.200
<v Speaker 1>final second half of the season here, Yeah, I mean

0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:49.720
<v Speaker 1>we may look at him to rush the pastor a

0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:52.080
<v Speaker 1>little bit, you know, not alight him up, see if

0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:54.440
<v Speaker 1>we can cover, maybe drop somebody off into coverage. No,

0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:57.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he's just Tredavis is really developing into the

0:02:57.360 --> 0:03:00.160
<v Speaker 1>all around corner, both in the run end pass game,

0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:02.360
<v Speaker 1>and so that's good to see. And he works extremely

0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:04.040
<v Speaker 1>hard during the week and it gets the results on

0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:05.760
<v Speaker 1>the weekend because of his hard work during the week.

0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:07.920
<v Speaker 1>You have Jordan Phillips, who now leads the league with

0:03:08.639 --> 0:03:11.320
<v Speaker 1>six sacks. No defensive tackle in the league has more.

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:13.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm wondering when you look at him, what did he

0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:16.240
<v Speaker 1>show you on film in thee on the practice field

0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:18.080
<v Speaker 1>that let you think that you could go with him

0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 1>and start him in this game this pass Yeah, it's

0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:22.560
<v Speaker 1>been an ongoing deal. We chet, we chart production, and

0:03:22.600 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 1>he's been productive for us, and so we talk about

0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:28.239
<v Speaker 1>earning things in our building and he had earned the

0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:30.840
<v Speaker 1>right to start or we expect for him to continue

0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:33.760
<v Speaker 1>to develop. And there's certainly areas he's had success and

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.120
<v Speaker 1>there's also areas he needs to improve. And just like

0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:38.560
<v Speaker 1>our football team, your team, your defense now for twelve

0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:41.560
<v Speaker 1>straight games, has allowed no more than one touchdown passing

0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:43.520
<v Speaker 1>in each of these games. You're midway through the season,

0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:45.760
<v Speaker 1>you're the third ranked past defense in the league. What

0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:49.160
<v Speaker 1>do you want quarterbacks and offensive coordinators, your opponents to

0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:50.960
<v Speaker 1>see when they look at your past defense? What do

0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:53.040
<v Speaker 1>you think they would think of your guys? Well, hopefully

0:03:53.080 --> 0:03:55.080
<v Speaker 1>we're coordinated. I mean, that's really what you want to

0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:58.400
<v Speaker 1>look at and develop as a past defense is coordination

0:03:58.640 --> 0:04:02.440
<v Speaker 1>within our linebackers secondary that they work together. You know,

0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:04.800
<v Speaker 1>there's certainly things we can do better. I like where

0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:07.440
<v Speaker 1>we are, but with room to grow as well. Devin

0:04:07.520 --> 0:04:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Singletary has provided an offensive spark in a few games

0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:12.880
<v Speaker 1>so far this season, but he really was almost a

0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:15.320
<v Speaker 1>focal point of your offense this past Sunday. I'm wondering

0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:18.080
<v Speaker 1>what you see what encouraged you from what you've seen

0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:21.479
<v Speaker 1>from Devin Singletary. Yeah, another young player, Murph really that's

0:04:21.760 --> 0:04:23.560
<v Speaker 1>gotten a lot of playing time and he's done some

0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:27.080
<v Speaker 1>good things with the opportunities that he's earned. And so

0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:30.000
<v Speaker 1>whether it's Frank or Devin, we're going to continue to

0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:32.559
<v Speaker 1>grow and evolve as an offense. That's really the direction

0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:35.720
<v Speaker 1>we're trying to go in terms of hey, week to week,

0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:38.479
<v Speaker 1>game planning week to week. This guy may be hot,

0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:40.680
<v Speaker 1>that guy may be hot, and whether it's in the

0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:42.760
<v Speaker 1>run game the past game, it all starts up front,

0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, it all starts with the offensive line. At quarterback.

0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Josh Allen played another game without turning it over. He

0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:49.960
<v Speaker 1>has kind of curbed that tendency. He may have had

0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:52.159
<v Speaker 1>it earlier this year. It seems like that was a

0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:55.279
<v Speaker 1>step forward him his performance against Washington this pay it was, Yeah,

0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:58.479
<v Speaker 1>another step forward for Josh with respect to his approach

0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:00.680
<v Speaker 1>to the game, his approach to the running game, the

0:05:00.680 --> 0:05:04.360
<v Speaker 1>passing game, situational football, finding open receivers on the move

0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:07.320
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of time so and then then working

0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:09.159
<v Speaker 1>with him when he's on the move. Good part of

0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:11.720
<v Speaker 1>our offense, and we have to continue to grow that offense.

0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:13.680
<v Speaker 1>We heard Micah hydsay in the locker room after the

0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:16.320
<v Speaker 1>game last Sunday that I'm not going to apologize anymore

0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:18.560
<v Speaker 1>for ugly wins. What's your take on that? And you

0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:20.600
<v Speaker 1>know the old Parcels statement, you are what your record

0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:22.800
<v Speaker 1>says you are. I believe that, don't you. Well, it's

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:24.880
<v Speaker 1>hard to win in this league. Yeah, it's truly a

0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:27.240
<v Speaker 1>week to week league. As you and I were talking

0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:30.359
<v Speaker 1>earlier here, it's you never want to relax because it's legal,

0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:33.560
<v Speaker 1>come up and bite you. So we respect the league,

0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:36.120
<v Speaker 1>we respect every opponent, and we take again that a

0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:38.680
<v Speaker 1>humble and hungry approach. Okay, Sean, thanks very much, thanks

0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:40.520
<v Speaker 1>for your thoughts on the Watchington game. We will pick

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:43.039
<v Speaker 1>this conversation up a little bit later on in the show.

0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:48.560
<v Speaker 1>Game preview is presented by Independent Health from your Every Date,

0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:54.680
<v Speaker 1>You're unexpected. That's the Red Share treatment. I'm Mattie Glad

0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:57.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm here at this week's game preview. After three straight

0:05:57.520 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 1>weeks at home, the Bills are on the road for

0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:02.200
<v Speaker 1>the next weeks. In week ten, they will face the

0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:05.279
<v Speaker 1>third ranked team in the AFC North, better known as

0:06:05.279 --> 0:06:08.080
<v Speaker 1>the Cleveland Browns. Bills now six and two, and next

0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:11.080
<v Speaker 1>week the Bills are at the Cleveland Browns at one o'clock.

0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.760
<v Speaker 1>Running Back Nick Chubb, who is second in the NFL

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:16.880
<v Speaker 1>averaging one hundred point four rushing yards per game, will

0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:19.599
<v Speaker 1>try to help out quarterback Baker Mayfield, who is the

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:22.800
<v Speaker 1>lowest completion percentage in the league out of quarterbacks with

0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:26.320
<v Speaker 1>at least fourteen attempts per game. Chubb also ranks fourth

0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:29.479
<v Speaker 1>in total rushing yards with eight hundred and three. Receiver

0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:33.239
<v Speaker 1>Jarvis Landry leads the team averaging fifteen point four yards

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:36.839
<v Speaker 1>per catch. Cleveland's run defense has struggled so far this year,

0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:39.480
<v Speaker 1>allowing the third most rushing yards a game at an

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:42.200
<v Speaker 1>average of one forty one point three yards per game.

0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Linebacker Joe Schobern gets after opposing offenses as he is

0:06:46.160 --> 0:06:49.640
<v Speaker 1>second in the league with fifty five solo tackles. Miles

0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Garrett has been a solid force on defense as well,

0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.640
<v Speaker 1>as he is second in the league with ten sacks

0:06:54.680 --> 0:06:58.719
<v Speaker 1>and second in TFLs with thirteen. Bill's quarterback Josh Allen

0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:00.840
<v Speaker 1>will look to beat Myles Garret in the air or

0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:03.200
<v Speaker 1>on the ground, as he is one of four qbs

0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:06.840
<v Speaker 1>to have at least twenty passing touchdowns and twelve rushing

0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:11.480
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns over their first two seasons. Alan has definitely progressed

0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:14.280
<v Speaker 1>over the last four games two as he has thrown

0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:17.720
<v Speaker 1>just one interception and lost one fumble. Here comes pressure,

0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.840
<v Speaker 1>He's in trouble. He is dropped. He is set. Tradeaby

0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:23.920
<v Speaker 1>is white. Trade a dropped him at the four yard line.

0:07:23.960 --> 0:07:26.920
<v Speaker 1>The third ranked Buffalo defense that allows an average of

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.640
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and ninety six point two yards per game,

0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:32.800
<v Speaker 1>wants to stay strong and limit the Browns's big names

0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:36.160
<v Speaker 1>on offense. The Bill's defense allowed just nine points to

0:07:36.160 --> 0:07:39.160
<v Speaker 1>the Redskins and is ranked third in allowing an average

0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:42.240
<v Speaker 1>of sixteen point four points per game. In the last

0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:44.760
<v Speaker 1>eight times the Browns and Bills have met dating back

0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:47.160
<v Speaker 1>to two thousand and seven. The teams are tied at

0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:52.400
<v Speaker 1>four and four. Murph, back to you, all right, thanks Mattie.

0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:54.480
<v Speaker 1>Now time for some final thoughts with Bill. Said coach

0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Sean McDermott. Coach, you're getting ready for this weekend. Your

0:07:57.080 --> 0:07:59.240
<v Speaker 1>team is three and oh on the road this year,

0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:02.240
<v Speaker 1>the Browns are in three at home. It's an interesting

0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:03.960
<v Speaker 1>thing and there's been a lot of that going on

0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:06.520
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL this year, but certainly it's a different

0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:09.040
<v Speaker 1>approach for your team, especially after three straight home games. Uh,

0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:11.320
<v Speaker 1>it is. We've got to be going the road and

0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:15.240
<v Speaker 1>be road warriors. And they're highly talented football team, a

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:18.960
<v Speaker 1>team that came into the season with very high expectations,

0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:22.400
<v Speaker 1>and so the most important things we focus on us

0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:24.520
<v Speaker 1>and ourselves and we continue to grow as a football tall.

0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:26.240

<v Speaker 1>fourth in the league and rushing yardag You've been up

0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:30.720

<v Speaker 1>but we've got to get stronger with the with the

0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:41.480
<v Speaker 1>weeks as they pass by, it's only going to get tougher,

0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:44.080
<v Speaker 1>and we understand that, so we've got to continue to

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:46.560
<v Speaker 1>develop our defense and our overall football team. Your team
