That is it, man, 84 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 3: that is It's like there's been a handful of them. 85 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 3: The Rams game where they lost. 86 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 2: Forty two, forty four nuts. 87 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 3: There's the last game of the season in twenty nineteen 88 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 3: when Josh Missus banks the ball off of Charles Clay's 89 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 3: face mask to win the game after you know, when 90 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 3: he's he didn't even know what he's doing yet, and 91 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,239 Speaker 3: he just he like carries the whole game. Both teams 92 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 3: are on him. That's where we've been, right, That's that's 93 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 3: his whole career. Games like this him. Look at this 94 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 3: the touchdown, just I love it. Man, he catches it, 95 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 3: touch it under his arm, let's go. We're in the 96 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 3: end zone. And you know, and he's got six offensive 97 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 3: lineman pounding on him, jumping on his back and pushing 98 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 3: him in. It was just, you know, that's we get 99 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 3: and everybody knows. Brown and I sit here, and you know, 100 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 3: you listen to the show. We sit here, and the callers, 101 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 3: the temperature of the callers or will tell you exactly 102 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 3: what they thought of, how not they win too many 103 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 3: games to wins and losses. It's how they won. What 104 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 3: it looked like, what it felt like? How good did 105 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 3: it make us all look? Right? How good? How good 106 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,559 Speaker 3: did our team look? How close were that team being? 107 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 3: How close was that team being beating us? Right? And 108 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 3: this game nine lead changes. They're a good football team, 109 00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 3: A six and three team coming in. I mean, that 110 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 3: was that was an NFL game right there, Baby, That 111 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 3: was just that was that was for all of us. 112 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 3: That was getting fat at the table because that was 113 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 3: a game that was just so fun. And even Sean mcner, 114 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 3: you had him and both Todd Bowles at the middle field. 115 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 3: They had a long, extended, quiet conversation. You could tell 116 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 3: both of them knew that was a heavyweight. It was 117 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 3: just an you can't just say enough about that game. 118 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,559 Speaker 2: It was fun to watch. And the question is where 119 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 2: do the Bills go from here? Because you get the 120 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 2: explosive offense out of Buffalo against the Tampa Bay defense 121 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 2: that was good at shutting down the run. And when 122 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 2: the offense has that much of an explosive performance, when 123 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: you go over forty, you gotta believe you take some 124 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 2: of that momentum with you, especially in a short week 125 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 2: right to the Houston Texans, where you're gonna have to 126 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 2: put your best show on the field because the Texans 127 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 2: have the best defense in the NFL. Yes, they are 128 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 2: without their starting quarterback and see js on for a 129 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 2: third straight game due to a concussion, But the Bills 130 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 2: have got to build off of this performance. 131 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you wonder too. And I've had a couple 132 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 3: of interviews with out of town radio stations in Houston 133 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 3: and other places about and I remember even in leading 134 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 3: up to Tampa Bay that what's the Bill's recipe? Right? 135 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 3: I talk about that a lot. And they've got a 136 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 3: way that they like to play. And we've seen it 137 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 3: throughout the first six or seven games where if they 138 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 3: dominate the time of possession that they don't turn it over, 139 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 3: they run the ball too well for the team not 140 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 3: to commit to stopping it and therefore leaving it open 141 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 3: for Josh and the back end. But in fact, they've 142 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 3: run it so well at times Josh is like the 143 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 3: kid in the class project you mentioned, you know last week, 144 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 3: He's like the lad in the class project, didn't do anything, 145 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 3: still got an a right, That's what it feels like sometimes. 146 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 3: So it's pretty unfulfilling as Bills fans to watch them 147 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 3: play in a game where you've got this ultimate weapon 148 00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 3: that you've you got in your holster, you never pull 149 00:07:59,720 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 3: it out. 150 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 2: The guy with the stick pointing at the thing, do something. 151 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 4: Do something. 152 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,119 Speaker 3: It's like that their recipe has been really hard to beat. 153 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 3: When they when they can do it fully I think 154 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 3: this game, particularly against that team, a good football team, 155 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 3: should give people confidence that they've got that under the hood. 156 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 3: They've got that under the hood with no running game 157 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 3: to speak of, or not much. 158 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 2: Time and possession not in their favor differential battle, which 159 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 2: when they have done so this season has turned into 160 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 2: a loss. 161 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,079 Speaker 3: They turn it over twice and they only get one back, 162 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 3: and it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter because Josh is 163 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 3: doing all this stuff, and you think, what do that 164 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 3: do that? And I and I see that, and I'm 165 00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 3: I'm okay with it, except I think there's there They think, 166 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 3: while we can win games like that, we can't lose 167 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 3: when we run the ball and don't turn it over, 168 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 3: because then we've got that ultimate weapon. We pull that 169 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 3: out of the holster anytime we want. I mean, Josh 170 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 3: is always on the field, right, so you've always got 171 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 3: the ultimate weapon at any moment, So win with everything else. 172 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 3: And then if you need the atomic bomb, you drop it. 173 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 3: And that's and even if we don't need the atomic bomb, 174 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 3: we're unbeatable. When we don't turn it over, we are 175 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 3: absolutely unbeatable. You look at the Patriots game, you look 176 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 3: at the Atlanta game, and you look at the well, 177 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 3: the Dolphins game, which was a little bit of an 178 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 3: aberration for me because it was kind of an emotional loss. 179 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 3: They didn't have any impact in that you know, emotional 180 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 3: impact in that game. That's the only you don't win 181 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 3: those You don't lose those games if you don't turn 182 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 3: it over. And so I think they feel supremely calm 183 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 3: that if they play that that finger quotes close to 184 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 3: the vest, don't turn it over. Because we got a bigger, 185 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 3: you know, atomic bomb than you do. You can't beat 186 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 3: us because even when it gets close late in the game, 187 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 3: Josh is better than anybody in that moment. He's better 188 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 3: than anybody. The advanced analytics you see, you go online, 189 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 3: you look at all this stuff. Josh is better than 190 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 3: mahomes On in crunch time, He's better than everybody in 191 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 3: crunch time, and the advanced analytics, what a quarterback accuracy, 192 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 3: quarterback rating, turnover margin, touchdowns, the whole thing. In the 193 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 3: crunch time moments of the game, he's the best. So 194 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 3: you think, don't we don't care if you keep it close. 195 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 3: We're still good. Look at the end of the first 196 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 3: half this last game against Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay goes 197 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 3: down and they I think they score the field goal. 198 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 2: The field goal. That's what happens. 199 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 3: They get a field goal and no they get Yeah, 200 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 3: they get a field goal. 201 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: And go with weired field goal as time expires. 202 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 3: Wait wait, yeah, but before before. 203 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: That, before that, it was the Sean Tucker forty three 204 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 2: are your run? 205 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 3: There? You go like almost six and that makes it 206 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 3: seventeen seventeen ten. 207 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 2: Or so seventeen fourteen, all right. 208 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 3: They had seventeen thirteen scored after and there's like less 209 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 3: than two and a half minutes to go in the half. 210 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 3: So they're thinking, if we just hold them and you know, stop, 211 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,719 Speaker 3: the Bills score in like thirty eight seconds. I mean, 212 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 3: it's like, that's what you got in, Josh. That's the 213 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 3: atomic Bob. Not only did they score, they scored so fast. 214 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 3: Kata Baker got another field goal. That's the crazy part 215 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,319 Speaker 3: of it. So they know they've got this weapon and 216 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 3: they can pull that out any time they want. Let's 217 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 3: not do it until we need to. Let's save Josh. 218 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 3: Make sure he's one hundred percent and he's not playing 219 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 3: the whole year with a busted hand or a tweaked 220 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 3: elbow or you know, a bent ankle, and let's just 221 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 3: keep him on two good pins until we until we 222 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 3: need him in these games. And I, you know, I'm 223 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 3: a little torn by it. I get it because it's 224 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 3: no fun to watch a Ferrari drive around in the 225 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 3: parking lot. But man, oh man, they're winning a ton 226 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 3: of games doing it when they when they you know, 227 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 3: play their game, when they when they're careful with the football. 228 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 3: I don't know. This game was so much fun. It 229 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 3: was so much fun. And I don't this game in Houston. 230 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 3: I don't know if it'll be as much fun. But 231 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 3: I know this. If Houston doesn't score thirty, they're not 232 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: beating this team. I mean, I know they've got a 233 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 3: great defense, number. 234 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 2: One averagame there they are. 235 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 3: They are a great they're really good number one defense 236 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 3: and a ton of categories. I get all that this 237 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 3: team's gonna score thirty. They are gonna score thirty points 238 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 3: that they do, that's just what that's in a bad games. 239 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 3: They in these boring, conservative, run the ball first games. 240 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 3: They come out and look at this schedule. They are 241 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 3: forty one thirty thirty one, thirty one thirty one. You know, 242 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 3: then there's twenty and fourteen and their losses, then it's 243 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 3: forty twenty eight, forty four. 244 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 2: Yep. Score at least twenty eight points in all their 245 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 2: wins this year. 246 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 3: They're gonna hang thirty. So you got to keep up 247 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 3: with them. Yeah, and that's when they that's when they 248 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 3: you know, except for this Tampa Bay and they play 249 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: it close to the vest. They scored forty on Carolina. 250 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 3: Josh threw it like eighteen times. I mean, they have 251 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 3: got a big, big weapon in this offense. It's a 252 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 3: huge engine. Call it what you want, the atomic bomb, 253 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 3: the big stick, the big Kohuna. Whatever. Josh is, he 254 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 3: is money yep. So they I think they're trying to 255 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 3: use him wisely for a long four month season. 256 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 2: A game like Week eleven, where you unleash something within 257 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 2: the offense and you show, hey, we can win in 258 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 2: more than one way. Watch our passing game. They go 259 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 2: off for eight receptions of at least twenty yards. It 260 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 2: was explosive. I think that unlocks something within an offense 261 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 2: to be able to withstand the rest of the season. 262 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 2: We've seen it before where a game happens by the 263 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 2: Bills in the middle of the season where they're waiting 264 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 2: for something to happen. They're waiting to figure out their identity. Bam, 265 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 2: there it is, and they march through the rest of 266 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 2: the season. The defense had two timely takeaways against the 267 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Buccaneers that were so important to solidifying Buffalo's win. 268 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 2: I think that was really big to put together. 269 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 3: What did you think about the running backs getting back 270 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 3: involved in the passing game those catches, I mean two touchdowns, yeah, 271 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 3: but I mean so it's yeah, oh my gosh. But 272 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 3: the throw to Cook out of the backfield and the 273 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 3: one to Tie Shavers, which you thought was going to 274 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 3: be okay, it's going to be a nice little eight 275 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 3: yard play, it was awesome. Yeah, he turned it up 276 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 3: the field. 277 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 2: I said. It was like seeing an old friend again 278 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 2: come back and you don't want to see him leave. 279 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 3: At the wheel route, the wheel route out of James 280 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 3: Cook going down the same spot in the field, the 281 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 3: same spot in the in the end zone. They both 282 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 3: went in right there on those passing plays of the 283 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 3: running back. 284 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 2: It was so good. 285 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 3: It couldn't have been more wide open. And you know 286 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 3: that wasn't just the only two plays. Obviously, they caught 287 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 3: five balls between them, so there are three other receptions 288 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 3: but those were crushers. 289 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 4: Yeah for the Bucks. 290 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 2: Putting that game to bed and moving forward with a 291 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 2: lot of things that are going on in the league today. 292 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 2: We have so much to get to. But Steve, I 293 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 2: got a text last night at about eight o'clock that 294 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 2: had me jumping off my couch. I was so excited 295 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 2: to read this text and write up a little story, 296 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 2: so it got posted at eleven this morning when the 297 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 2: news dropped that Steve Tasker is moving on as a 298 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 2: semi finalist in the Seniors category of the Pro Football 299 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame Class of twenty twenty six. 300 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 3: Steve I found out who I didn't know because they 301 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 3: text you, they don't text me. They texted you. And 302 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 3: I was sitting, you know, I'm in the office getting ready, 303 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 3: and I get a text on my phone from Sean McDermott. 304 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 3: So I opened immediately.

You excited? 312 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 3: I still have a hard time getting my mind what 313 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 3: it would mean or what it would do. But and 314 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 3: I temper my expectations because I truly I am very, 315 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 3: very satisfied with what I did on the field with 316 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 3: this team. Loved playing here, and I you know, and 317 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 3: I know too in my teammates, former teammates and fans 318 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 3: and whoever have have communicated to me, and I know 319 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 3: my teammates feel this way that there were some games 320 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 3: that we wouldn't have won, and then I contributed enough 321 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 3: to make a difference, a big difference, and in some 322 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 3: of them were really big games. And I did it 323 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 3: on a pretty consistently for a long time. And that 324 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 3: to me is that's I get it that I you know, 325 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 3: fans they choose who they want to cheer for. So 326 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 3: but your teammates and opponents too, who have said the 327 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 3: same thing to me, that means more to me than anything. 328 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 3: Of course, certainly this would be unbelievable, particularly and I'll 329 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 3: say this, it's almost in a way if if a 330 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 3: guy goes in like I'm going in, it's old guys 331 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 3: who vote you in, which is even to me even 332 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 3: more special, you know what I mean, because who knows 333 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 3: better than me how little the media knows, right right, 334 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 3: So it would it would mean it would be worth 335 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 3: the way, no question about it. And it would almost 336 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 3: be more satisfying because of that, and because of the 337 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,199 Speaker 3: guys who would vote me in, and I know a 338 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 3: lot of them and acquainted with a lot of them, 339 00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 3: and the and it's funny too.

But man, oh man, 458 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 3: when you get into a game, the coach says, you 459 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 3: know what we need Khalishakir just had a little baby. 460 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,199 Speaker 3: They'll say, Khalil, you're getting the first throw, let's go. 461 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 3: They'll do stuff like that because it's a human being 462 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 3: game and is full of emotion, emotions teammates and Khalil's 463 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 3: gonna get the first past long to go right. 464 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 2: You think about how the team reacts when Tyrrel Shaver 465 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,439 Speaker 2: catches a fully three yard touchdown against Tampa Bay, Like 466 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 2: there are feelings that are ingrained into their bodies because 467 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 2: of the type of work that Shaver's put out on 468 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 2: the field to earn a spot on the fifty three 469 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 2: man row. 470 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, shaves steeper. 471 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 2: Than just to throw. 472 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 3: Sometimes, shaves cuts a swath. When he got here three 473 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 3: years ago, he wasn't an NFL player. Well he is now, 474 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 3: and he did it by what he's got between his 475 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 3: ears and inside his chest. He's he's smart and he 476 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 3: works at it. And he has really changed the attitude 477 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 3: of coaches about him, changed the what their opinion about him. 478 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 3: He's earned his you know, his reps, and he's and 479 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 3: he's kind of getting more reps. And it's particularly when 480 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 3: you juxtaposition it with Keon and how he has struggled. 481 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,640 Speaker 3: It has been just the opposite for Real Shavers. He's 482 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 3: gone like total pro. He's like total I'm here for 483 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 3: because it's my job and I'm gonna do it well 484 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,360 Speaker 3: and I'm going to exceed expectations every day. And that 485 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:17,239 Speaker 3: kind of attitude, you know, is you get the kind 486 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 3: of Sunday you did this last week. It's yeah, we don't. 487 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 3: We don't. I don't hobnob with the players as much 488 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 3: as people probably think everybody. And I talk to the 489 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 3: staff a lot, like the trainers, sports science, wait and conditioning, 490 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 3: strength conditioning, all. You know, all those guys. The conversations 491 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 3: you have about to Real Shavers, everybody knows who that 492 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 3: guy is. They all like, man, I love that guy, 493 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 3: you know. So that's why she makes guys like him 494 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 3: on your team make a difference, you know, whether they're 495 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 3: covering kicks or playing X. 496 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 2: And we'll see what his role is for the Texans game. 497 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 2: UH coaches were asked, hey, based on his performance four catches, 498 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 2: ninety yards a touchdown in week eleven, does he deserve 499 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,400 Speaker 2: more reps in week twelve? So we'll see what happens. 500 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 2: He had fifty played a fifty four percent of the 501 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,639 Speaker 2: offensive snaps against the Bucks, so we'll see if that 502 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 2: number stays the same, goes up. It'll be exciting though. 503 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,479 Speaker 2: And Tyrrel Shavers joins us next on the show, as 504 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,880 Speaker 2: Chris Brown interviewed him yesterday, So it's perfect.

Obviously we know where the nickname 516 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 5: comes from. Have you ever had another nickname besides Shaves? 517 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 5: Like throughout your football career, like. 518 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 7: Growing up real Okay, Reroll was my nickname from everybody 519 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 7: in my family and. 520 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 5: Then okay, so that's your family friends. 521 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 7: Yeah, tie shaves pretty pretty common. 522 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 5: Okay, but shaves is kind of the overriding. 523 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 3: One right now. 524 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, Uh, why don't you walk me through last 525 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 5: weekend's game, because, as you told us in the postgame interview, 526 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 5: like your role changed because the lineup changed there in 527 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 5: like the eleventh hour of the week. So I'm not 528 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,239 Speaker 5: asking you for specifics. What I want to know is 529 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 5: give me a percentage on how much of your game 530 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 5: day responsibilities on offense got shifted at the end of 531 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 5: the week that you had to make this shift on 532 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 5: the fly and then get ready to execute. What would 533 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 5: you say the percentage was of change in your responsibilities 534 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 5: within the game plan? 535 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 7: Usually around like fifty percent, about half of a change. No, 536 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 7: that's so that's like typically in the lineup, when I'm 537 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 7: in the lineup, no changes, it's about like fifty percent. 538 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 7: When we made the changes, it went up to about 539 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 7: seventy five. Yeah, so I had to jump into playbook 540 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 7: and do a couple of extra walkthroughs after just to 541 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 7: make sure I knew what I was doing. 542 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, so you're talking like four or five extra study hours, Like, 543 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 5: what are we talking about? 544 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 6: Like two three? 545 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 7: So we figured out the changes Friday, So I did 546 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 7: three extra hours after we finished up on Friday, and 547 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 7: then Saturday I did two walkthroughs in another two hours 548 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 7: just to make sure I know. 549 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 5: So by the time you got the kick off, you 550 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 5: felt straight. 551 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was good, right, yeah. 552 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 5: And obviously the results spoke for themselves, but I thought 553 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 5: it was funny. In the post game, somebody asked Josh about, 554 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 5: you know the play when he throws you the forty 555 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 5: three yarder, and Josh almost with half a smirk on 556 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 5: his face, said, yeah, I dropped back. My first read 557 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 5: was open. I should have thrown it to him. My 558 00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 5: second read was open. I should have thrown it to him, 559 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 5: but he wanted more. And that's like he's so competitive. 560 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 5: He wants more on every play and it paid off. 561 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 5: How did you because you're not looking back at him, 562 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 5: You're trying to carry your route, and then maybe you 563 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 5: peek if the play's still going, and then bang it 564 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 5: scramble rules. So how did you kind of process that 565 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 5: whole play knowing Josh? Once you found out Josh is 566 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 5: still running around and doing stuff in the backfield. 567 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 7: Yeah, So I broke out quick out route and as 568 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 7: soon as I turned, I saw Josh run the opposite way. 569 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 7: And I saw him run the opposite way. I turned 570 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 7: right up field because I was going to go across 571 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 7: the field. And as soon as he went, as soon 572 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 7: as I started going across, like it was a slight, 573 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 7: slight path, but he started coming back, and I'm like, oh, 574 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 7: I'm standing right here. There's nobody over here. Yeah, there's 575 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 7: nobody over here at all. So I just stood over there. 576 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 7: I threw a little hand up just and just in 577 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 7: case he didn't see me, but he definitely did. We 578 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 7: locked the eyes and he let it fly. 579 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, he ripped it. And I mentioned this on the 580 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 5: broadcast because you made the catch look easy, but that 581 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 5: is not one of the easier catches to make. A 582 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 5: ball descending quickly and you've got to backhand it with 583 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 5: both hands and bend while running at the state, like, 584 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 5: just maybe walk me through. You know, that's not an 585 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 5: easy catch. You made it look easy, but that's not 586 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 5: an easy catch to make because you don't you're not 587 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:17,959 Speaker 5: usually making those right. 588 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, No, definitely was a difficult catch, especially with the wind. 589 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 7: It was like fifteen miles an hour wind, so it 590 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 7: was coming in the air. It was like a typical 591 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 7: go ball. But as soon as it got about like 592 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 7: ten to fifteen yards from me, it just does. It 593 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 7: fell out at the sky and I had to make 594 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 7: an adjustment. I was just making sure that I tracked 595 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 7: the ball all the way in so I could make 596 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 7: the catch. 597 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:43,719 Speaker 5: How refreshing was it as a group to see the 598 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 5: passing game operate, execute, function and produce the way you 599 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 5: guys know it can. After a frustrating week the week before, 600 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 5: How I guess, what's the emotion that you feel are you? 601 00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 5: Are you relieved or are you emboldened? And you're like, yeah, yeah, 602 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,959 Speaker 5: that's how it's supposed to look like, what are the 603 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 5: feelings and emotions when you guys hit on just about 604 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 5: everything you want. 605 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 6: To hit on. 606 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:10,719 Speaker 7: I think it's kind of what you said refreshing. We 607 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 7: know we have the talent in the room. We know 608 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 7: we have the skill in the room. We just haven't 609 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 7: been doing what we need to do to get the 610 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 7: results that we're looking for. So we just have to 611 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 7: tweak a couple of things, fix a couple of things, 612 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 7: It's not like we changed the whole playbook or anything. 613 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 7: It was the little things, the real smart things that 614 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 7: we had to lock in on, and that's why we 615 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 7: have success. 616 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 5: And then Gabe gets reincorporated. You've been around long enough 617 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 5: to have been his teammate the first time. Yeah, what 618 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 5: was it like just having him back? Because I know 619 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 5: this is a locker room that welcomes anybody that walks 620 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 5: in with open arms, but this is a little bit 621 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 5: different because a lot of the guys know him and 622 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 5: I know he had three catches for forty yards, but 623 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 5: even blocking in the run game and everything else, every 624 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 5: little thing he did, it seemed like a lot of 625 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 5: you guys were very quick, you know, tap him up, 626 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 5: tap him on the helmet. It's almost like welcome back, 627 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 5: welcome back, welcome back. Like why is that important do 628 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 5: you think for the balance of the roster to just 629 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 5: kind of lift him up when he did something. I mean, 630 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 5: he's a veteran player, he knows how to play, he 631 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 5: knows this offense to a certain extent. Why why the 632 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 5: need did you guys feel to kind of just kind 633 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 5: of prop him up a little bit in his first 634 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 5: game back. 635 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 7: We just we love Gabe. Yeah, that's where a family here. 636 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,719 Speaker 7: Gabe has been here, He's made so many plays here 637 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 7: in this uniform. But Gabe is a Bill's legend, so 638 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 7: we just wanted to make sure that he felt welcome 639 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 7: back at home. You know, he He's going to continue 640 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 7: to make some plays Grave. Gabe is a great player, 641 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 7: and we just wanted to make sure that he was comfortable, 642 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 7: he felt like where he needed to be. 643 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 6: He felt good. He's been through a lot in the past. 644 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 5: I long rehab a lot. 645 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 7: And I'm proud of him for everything he's been through 646 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 7: to continue fighting, and we just we just got to 647 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:47,479 Speaker 7: keep being there for him. 648 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 5: Okay, challenges of a short week, You guys already went 649 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 5: through this once in week three with the Thursday night game. 650 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 5: I imagine the bodies feel a little bit different in 651 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 5: week twelve than they do in week three. So how 652 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 5: much more dedicated are you to getting off of your feet? 653 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 5: Because I would tend to believe the number one priority 654 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 5: on short weeks is getting the body the necessary rest. 655 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's a point of emphasis.

Anybody else or like when 707 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 5: you were a young kid, did you like watching any 708 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,920 Speaker 5: receivers that kind of caught your eye and said, ooh yeah. 709 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 7: His game there there was, there's three of them, obviously, 710 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 7: Julio Jones he went to Alabama. I went to Alabama too, 711 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 7: so even like just watching him come up and his 712 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:41,400 Speaker 7: explosiveness of explosiveness was crazy. And then Calvin Johnson, his 713 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 7: dominance was insane, Like they got two people covering him 714 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:46,839 Speaker 7: like he's a gunner, so he would still go out 715 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:51,359 Speaker 7: there and dominate. And then lastly aj Green Okay, Cincinnati, 716 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 7: Like I felt like my body type was closest to 717 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 7: his and my game, so that like just watching him 718 00:36:58,160 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 7: like the way we play receiver, the way we run. 719 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 6: So it was one guy really that. 720 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 5: Made sense to do that. Yeah, when you get a chance, 721 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 5: go look up Calvin Johnson's vertical at the at the combine. 722 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:08,760 Speaker 6: It's insane. 723 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 5: Your eyes might pop that. 724 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:13,240 Speaker 3: It's alien. 725 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 5: Like I'll just say that it's not right for a 726 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 5: man that tall to be able to jump that high too. 727 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 5: It's just not even fair. Tyrell, Thanks for the time. 728 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 5: Appreciate it, Stay healthy and good luck on Thursday night. 729 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 6: Yes, sorrd, thank you. 730 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 4: All right. 731 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 5: That's Tyrel Shavers joining us here on One Bills Live. 732 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:28,720 Speaker 5: Steve Tasker, Maddi glab will have more when we return. 733 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 5: Stay tuned. 734 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 2: All right, We're back on One Bill's Live. It's now 735 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 2: time for hitting Up and Cooling Down, presented by t 736 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 2: Mark Hvac and Plumbing, the official residential HVAC partner of 737 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills, and in week twelve, Heating up are 738 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 2: the Bills running backs being used in the passing game. 739 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 2: We love to see it. We want to see more 740 00:37:53,719 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 2: of it. Cooling down the Texans red zone offense and defense. Now, 741 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 2: if you look at the Texans offense, it's not like 742 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,840 Speaker 2: they're number one in every single category. They're in the 743 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 2: middle of the pack and toward the bottom of the 744 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 2: pack in several offensive categories, especially being down there starting 745 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 2: quarterback and CJ. Stroud having to put it together with 746 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,239 Speaker 2: Davis Mills the last two weeks. Now for a third 747 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 2: straight week, but they rank thirty first on offense and 748 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 2: red zone efficiency, scoring touchdowns forty three percent of the 749 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 2: time they're in the red zone, and then defensively, they're 750 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:31,240 Speaker 2: allowing touchdowns in the red zone wopping sixty five percent 751 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 2: of the time. That's good for twenty eighth in the NFL, 752 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 2: so bottom of the NFL in that category. So if 753 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 2: the Bills can take advantage of both sides of the 754 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 2: football in the red zone, that might be a key 755 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 2: to victory here. 756 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, one of the things too, they're crucial. Their situational 757 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 3: football is really struggling their red zone, as you said, 758 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 3: and also the third down conversions have not been very good, 759 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 3: so they've had trouble stayed on the field. Their fourth 760 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:57,919 Speaker 3: down is a little better, but not much so it's 761 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 3: it's been a struggle crucial downs for the Houston offense 762 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 3: the red zone downs of course, and then on third 763 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:08,320 Speaker 3: down as well. So obviously, look you go down their schedule, 764 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 3: they they're not scoring a ton of points there. They're 765 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 3: nothing like the Bills. I mean, you know what I mean. 766 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 2: So coverage twenty per game, right, twenty. 767 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 3: Two points a game is it's kind of like the 768 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,279 Speaker 3: Mendoza line, you know, I mean, it's it's it's not 769 00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 3: a high bar. Particularly when you look at the Bills 770 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 3: and all the teams they play. It's it's gonna be 771 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:30,720 Speaker 3: an interesting game for this because of their the quality 772 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:34,520 Speaker 3: of their defense evens that out some right, So you're 773 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 3: right heating up are the Bills running backs in the 774 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:39,279 Speaker 3: passing game and we've been talking about the. 775 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,320 Speaker 2: Running again, you see more of it, you think. 776 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 3: We might because of Houston's ability to pressure with fewer guys. 777 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 3: They may their linebackers may be freed up to try 778 00:39:56,640 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 3: and cover backs, and they may, but they can probably 779 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,360 Speaker 3: also go zone coverage behind it as well, so you 780 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,359 Speaker 3: may you know, there's a little bit of that going on. 781 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,359 Speaker 3: So I think in zone coverage, it's whether it's running 782 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 3: backs or anybody, you're gonna go to the zone that 783 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 3: you've got open man demand. Yeah, you're looking at matchups 784 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,960 Speaker 3: and I like our backs matched up against any linebackers, 785 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 3: So it'll be interesting to see if they do get pressure. 786 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:22,319 Speaker 5: Hut. 787 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 3: So here's the here's the rub. If the Bills, if 788 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:29,280 Speaker 3: the Texans can get pressure with four guys up front, 789 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,239 Speaker 3: that means it doesn't matter who plays behind him, if 790 00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:33,919 Speaker 3: they're gonna be covering all the time in a passing game. 791 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 3: But if the Bills aren't passing it and they're running it, 792 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 3: they got to throw some heavy dudes up there, and 793 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:42,840 Speaker 3: they're gonna have to if they're if they got to 794 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 3: do some things to react to how well the Bills 795 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,839 Speaker 3: are running the football. That means bigger linebackers, slower guys 796 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 3: on the field. But you're running backs still on the field. 797 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 3: Let's get one of those guys matched up with him 798 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 3: in coverage. Now. Okay, so now that we've got the 799 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 3: heavier package on the field, now let's see him. Let's 800 00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 3: see him stay with James or tie. That's the chess match. 801 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,280 Speaker 3: You know, we'll see. But I like where it's headed. 802 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,279 Speaker 3: Like I said before, I think the Bills are a 803 00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 3: thirty point team. That's their Mendoza line. So we'll see 804 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 3: if they get to that. 805 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,359 Speaker 2: I hope they can, and I hope we see more 806 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,800 Speaker 2: Ty Johnson and James Cook in the passing game, because man, 807 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 2: what a mismatch. It's another thing for defense is to 808 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 2: have to account for and to have to prepare for. 809 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 2: I think that's a weapon they can take out of 810 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 2: their bag as they get into November, December and January football. 811 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 2: Before we go to break, let's quickly go around. The 812 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 2: NFL is presented by Clyde Health, the official Healthcare System 813 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 2: of the Buffalo Bills, and we mentioned this earlier, but 814 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 2: we'll give you the official report. The Houston Texans have 815 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 2: announced a quarterbacks CJ. Stroud will miss his third straight 816 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 2: game due to the concussion he's been dealing with the 817 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,360 Speaker 2: past few weeks now. Stroud was limited for Tuesday's practice 818 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,799 Speaker 2: but has not cleared concussion protocol yet. According to head 819 00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 2: coach Tamiko Ryans, now back Davis Mills will make his 820 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 2: third start. Mills is two to zero this season. He 821 00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,919 Speaker 2: led a game winning drive last week against Titans, where 822 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 2: they won sixteen to thirteen on a field goal make 823 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 2: as time expired.

And I and I said, I don't. 924 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:14,560 Speaker 8: Even care if he got two picks. 925 00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 2: I mean, if he has six touchdowns two picks, fine, yeah, he'll. 926 00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 4: Take it right exactly, We'll take it. 927 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:22,800 Speaker 3: Here's a plus four on TV turnover. 928 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:24,560 Speaker 4: Yeah you're all right, Yeah, you're all right. 929 00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:28,640 Speaker 8: So and then ended up like, oh, he's only the 930 00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 8: second player to ever do this. 931 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:31,280 Speaker 4: And I'm like, well, who was the first? 932 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 3: It was him. It was him, Idle Graham did it 933 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 3: in nineteen fifty four when there's like nine guys playing 934 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:37,160 Speaker 3: in the league. 935 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:43,719 Speaker 8: Yeah, so no, it's no, it's incredible. I mean, I 936 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,320 Speaker 8: obviously I think going against Houston, I mean they're front 937 00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,320 Speaker 8: fourk and you know they can get off to the passer. 938 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:53,120 Speaker 4: So hey, get this one. Have another ten days to relax, 939 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 4: do the same thing, man. I mean, it's it's here. 940 00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 8: For the take it in here and then you're gonna 941 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:01,359 Speaker 8: beat a team like in a Texan get them farther down. 942 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:05,799 Speaker 3: So we're just laughing because he's Offensive Player of the Week. 943 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:07,759 Speaker 3: We're like, all right, we. 944 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 8: Know, yeah, was there everybody off to that? 945 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,839 Speaker 3: But there's really there's no suspect when they come out 946 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,719 Speaker 3: of it. Oh they're gonna yeah, Okay, well yeah, you 947 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 3: gotta give it to them. Nobody's even close. 948 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,280 Speaker 4: Nobody was even close. No, And so I mean it's 949 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 4: and I think it could have been that way. 950 00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:30,920 Speaker 8: At the beginning of the season all the way to now, 951 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:34,600 Speaker 8: if he was like that, if he was just because 952 00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 8: I mean, look, I don't know. We havet me just 953 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:38,920 Speaker 8: say you have. We haven't been seeing the downfield throws 954 00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 8: or anything. We haven't been seeing him scramble. I'm like, hey, man, 955 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:45,399 Speaker 8: this is one of the most athletic quarterbacks you've ever 956 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:46,160 Speaker 8: seen before. 957 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:48,439 Speaker 4: Let him go. 958 00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 3: Wait man, how about this though? And I said that, 959 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 3: I've been talking to Maddy about that. I've been talking 960 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,720 Speaker 3: like this for ever since the game and even before 961 00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:59,880 Speaker 3: the game. It's a long season, man, it's a long 962 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:03,919 Speaker 3: season when anyway, you can't when and I told her, 963 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:05,960 Speaker 3: when they don't turn the ball over, and they do 964 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 3: James cook, Let James cook, and they throw the ball 965 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 3: when they need to and all that, and they and 966 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 3: they're efficient on offense. They score on so many possessions 967 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 3: out of the game and do all that. You can't 968 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 3: beat him when they play like that, and that's when 969 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 3: Josh is like, like the he's like the assistant weight coach. 970 00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:26,160 Speaker 3: He's like not important. I don't say not important, you 971 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:28,640 Speaker 3: know what I mean, he's like a non factor. That's 972 00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 3: with when they play like that, he's a non factor. 973 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,520 Speaker 3: But they he's always there. He's like he's like right 974 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 3: here on your hip right like pull him out so 975 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,239 Speaker 3: you know. So they're trying to win games like that 976 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,400 Speaker 3: to make sure he's there. When they get to January 977 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,840 Speaker 3: February place, he feels one hundred percent. And like I 978 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 3: said to Maddie, he's also with advanced analytics and all 979 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:55,439 Speaker 3: this clutch gene. He's got all of that. Yeah, better 980 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 3: than anybody. And I sold. The perfect example is a 981 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,000 Speaker 3: last two and a half minutes of the first half, 982 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:03,960 Speaker 3: Tampa Bay comes down, gets a field, gonna say a right, 983 00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,560 Speaker 3: we got him, just hold him it boom, touchdown so fast. 984 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:08,920 Speaker 3: Now they got a chance to come. He is so 985 00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:12,440 Speaker 3: high powered. When they turn him loose, there ain't no ceiling. 986 00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:17,560 Speaker 4: It's almost like like. 987 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 8: He needs that moment, like he needs for something bad 988 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:26,920 Speaker 8: to happen. I mean something something clicks with Josh. I mean, 989 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:30,600 Speaker 8: the first couple of intercepizensity, I was like, man, what 990 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,200 Speaker 8: are you doing? And you see him going to the sideline, 991 00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:34,920 Speaker 8: and all of a sudden that he comes out. It's 992 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:38,880 Speaker 8: another switch, like Okay, I can take this over. I 993 00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:42,160 Speaker 8: know what I'm doing. And this is kind of the 994 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 8: wild type of office I like to run. 995 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:46,520 Speaker 4: I mean, And and he's probably gonna be able to 996 00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:47,120 Speaker 4: do it again. 997 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,640 Speaker 8: This year this week against Houston because they got the 998 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:51,680 Speaker 8: nice front for it. They get out of the quarterback, 999 00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 8: so that generates some lanes down the field. So and 1000 00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 8: I know they got what's the middle linebacker, I can't 1001 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:00,400 Speaker 8: think of his name, disease. 1002 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:03,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, he might be spying on him a little. 1003 00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:05,279 Speaker 8: I mean, and he's a he's a great athlete too, 1004 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:08,040 Speaker 8: So I mean, this could be a great matchup to come. 1005 00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:11,000 Speaker 8: But uh yeah, hey, you got ten more days the 1006 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:13,520 Speaker 8: rest man or whatever it is. You know, But you 1007 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,560 Speaker 8: want to come off this Thursday night victory with a victory. 1008 00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:17,319 Speaker 4: Make it fair. 1009 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:18,839 Speaker 2: You don't want to come out with a lost every 1010 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 2: point in the season. 1011 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's time, it's go time. 1012 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:26,000 Speaker 8: And and and I think now since Josh has put 1013 00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,279 Speaker 8: a film up of what he's been doing, the last three, 1014 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:30,960 Speaker 8: four or five years, people see that and now as like, 1015 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:34,840 Speaker 8: oh boy, what is he at it again? So, but 1016 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:39,120 Speaker 8: I think with having Cooked back there in the running 1017 00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 8: game that they've had this year, it kind. 1018 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,880 Speaker 4: Of balances this way, like which which parison are you 1019 00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 4: going to problem? Yeah, it presents a problem to choice. Yeah, 1020 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 4: they got to make some charges. So hey, look I 1021 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 4: love this. Roll him out more. I don't even just 1022 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:53,600 Speaker 4: let him go. 1023 00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:55,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm speaking of the running backs. We saw Ty 1024 00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 2: Johnson and James Cook used in the passing game and 1025 00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 2: holy moly, explode plays galore. What did you like about 1026 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:03,759 Speaker 2: them being used in that? 1027 00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:04,560 Speaker 3: I liked it all. 1028 00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:05,520 Speaker 4: I mean, I loved it all. 1029 00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,480 Speaker 8: I mean this is kind of I've always said, you know, 1030 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 8: if the running backs is in the mix some way, somehow, 1031 00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:13,399 Speaker 8: we're gonna be explosive. We're gonna be making plays down 1032 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:16,319 Speaker 8: the field or whatever. Like so, Ty and Reggie and 1033 00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:18,799 Speaker 8: James and those guys, those guys who were part of 1034 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,160 Speaker 8: the game plan. You know, they made a difference out 1035 00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:24,000 Speaker 8: on the football field. And I think, you know, as. 1036 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,359 Speaker 4: Long as they keep doing it, and did Ray Davis. 1037 00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,279 Speaker 8: I mean, the running backs had a day's too, as 1038 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 8: much as much as Josh had a day. 1039 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,600 Speaker 4: I think the running backs had a great day. 1040 00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:35,759 Speaker 8: Ray Davis on the kickoffster, I mean gave him a 1041 00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:38,279 Speaker 8: great field position. I mean it was That's what you 1042 00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:39,399 Speaker 8: want out of that room. 1043 00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:42,160 Speaker 3: And it's a it's a confidence boost because they did 1044 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:44,759 Speaker 3: it against the Bucks were a good football team. Yeah, 1045 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 3: they're really good team. They're six and three coming in, 1046 00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:51,720 Speaker 3: their physical team. They play really good defense. And Baker, 1047 00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:54,640 Speaker 3: as we all saw, that guy can play. I mean 1048 00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:55,800 Speaker 3: the guy can play. 1049 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 4: I hate to say that because he went to oh yeah, 1050 00:53:58,760 --> 00:53:59,319 Speaker 4: he can play. 1051 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,640 Speaker 3: So they did it against a really good football team 1052 00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 3: and that's one of the teams when you look down 1053 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 3: you know, not only at what the Bills have left, 1054 00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:10,239 Speaker 3: but you know the way their schedule looked early in 1055 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 3: the season, you knew Tampa Bay was Tampa Bay, Philly, Cincinnati, Baltimore, 1056 00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:18,640 Speaker 3: those four teams and Chiefs, of course, they were one 1057 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:20,680 Speaker 3: of those upper echelant teams that you're gonna have to 1058 00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 3: like go up against it like when you're going down 1059 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 3: win loss win loss win law, those are like I 1060 00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:29,000 Speaker 3: don't know your you know what I mean. Yeah, but 1061 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:31,520 Speaker 3: they did they convincingly. 1062 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,160 Speaker 4: And like you said, Tampa Tampa was playing. 1063 00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 8: I mean, right, well, I don't know who the running 1064 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:39,759 Speaker 8: back was when when the game started, number forty four, 1065 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 8: but I know who he is now, yeah, I know 1066 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 8: who he is. Guy Syracuse, exactly, Syracuse guys. So I mean, look, 1067 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:49,000 Speaker 8: when you're looking at all of this, that's one of 1068 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 8: the things that. 1069 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:50,239 Speaker 6: Really scares me. 1070 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:52,279 Speaker 3: The run defense. 1071 00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:56,040 Speaker 4: Run defense. You know, obviously, you know runs or whatever. 1072 00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 8: I mean, you get a team that's going on maybe 1073 00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:00,879 Speaker 8: if they can run it thirty times against us, they're 1074 00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 8: probably going it shortened our chances of how often Josh 1075 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 8: is out on the football field, because. 1076 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:09,359 Speaker 4: I mean, you don't want a long run. 1077 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 8: But if they're getting five and six and seven at 1078 00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:14,279 Speaker 8: a clip or whatever, yeah, it's you know, and that's 1079 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:15,600 Speaker 8: kind of the only thing that I word, but I 1080 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:19,040 Speaker 8: think these guys are you know, hey, it's going bad now. 1081 00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:20,839 Speaker 8: It's not going the way that they. 1082 00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:23,319 Speaker 4: Wanted to go. And like I said, one or two 1083 00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:24,200 Speaker 4: games can change that. 1084 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:25,920 Speaker 3: One or two games can change that. 1085 00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 8: Because and then you know, we're I think we're getting 1086 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,359 Speaker 8: a little bit more healthier, especially on the defensive side. 1087 00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 3: You know, we're getting actually getting yeah, I know, ye healthier. 1088 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 3: Some fun but We're also getting used to having the 1089 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,439 Speaker 3: guys we're supposed to have now that we're as healthy 1090 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:42,160 Speaker 3: as we're gonna be be. We still don't have ed, 1091 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:45,440 Speaker 3: we still don't have hot, you know, but we are 1092 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 3: getting you know now, Shack might be back on the 1093 00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:51,839 Speaker 3: field right in a run stopper. You've got Benfort's back 1094 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:53,480 Speaker 3: on the field. Looks like he played. He had some 1095 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:55,200 Speaker 3: moments the other night, and you don't hear his name 1096 00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:57,920 Speaker 3: called off. He doesn't give up any receptions, right. Max 1097 00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:03,400 Speaker 3: is playing well, Bishop's playing well. Of course, t J. 1098 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:05,359 Speaker 3: Sanders got some reps like the other night. And if 1099 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,759 Speaker 3: Kincaid gets back on the field, if Shakir can get 1100 00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:09,600 Speaker 3: over the ribs, I think they're still bothering him. He 1101 00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:12,359 Speaker 3: was out there, but he was not a factor, and 1102 00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:16,279 Speaker 3: there's the way he felt. So you get those guys healthy, 1103 00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:17,759 Speaker 3: and of course Sanders is in and out of the 1104 00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 3: lineup again. I think now that the momentum swing, that 1105 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:24,160 Speaker 3: the kind of the concern about injuries kind of swings 1106 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:26,040 Speaker 3: to the offensive side. On the on the outside. You 1107 00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:32,400 Speaker 3: got to keep those guys healthy. Kincaid, Shakir, Palmer, Sanders, 1108 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,960 Speaker 3: all those guys gotta stay healthy. For him to be 1109 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:38,439 Speaker 3: really effective like they were last Sunday. That's that gives 1110 00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:39,360 Speaker 3: him a real chance. 1111 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:41,080 Speaker 4: It does give him a real chance. 1112 00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 8: But I think, you know, we haven't been in this 1113 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 8: situation about what four or five years where we're in 1114 00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:47,680 Speaker 8: second place in the division. 1115 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:52,720 Speaker 4: We haven't been in that position. I mean usually next. 1116 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:57,160 Speaker 8: Week or clincher for us, right, But now we're in 1117 00:56:57,239 --> 00:57:01,920 Speaker 8: that mode now where we know are starters. We have 1118 00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:05,399 Speaker 8: to be at our best because because the more you lose, 1119 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:09,080 Speaker 8: the farther you drop down that seating, and you know, 1120 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:10,479 Speaker 8: and you want to be able to. 1121 00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:11,439 Speaker 3: Get further and further away. 1122 00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:13,480 Speaker 8: Yeah, you want to be able to be like, Okay, 1123 00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 8: let's hope New England messes up on the way down 1124 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 8: and then when we play them, then you're like, okay, 1125 00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 8: we've did enough to get here to put us in 1126 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,640 Speaker 8: a position to where we might be able to win. 1127 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:28,640 Speaker 3: This is there a thought here that maybe that's where 1128 00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 3: you kind of want to have Josh play in for 1129 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:32,400 Speaker 3: most of the second half of the season, because you 1130 00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:35,840 Speaker 3: get in these games. It doesn't happen very often, right, 1131 00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:40,959 Speaker 3: but when the Bills are like down double digits, Josh 1132 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:44,360 Speaker 3: shifts gears with that guy that guy grows horns right 1133 00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:48,280 Speaker 3: in front of your eyes. Man, And so when you're 1134 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:49,840 Speaker 3: coming down the stretch and they're like when they were 1135 00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:52,479 Speaker 3: chasing the Dolphins two years ago, there were three games down, 1136 00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:55,840 Speaker 3: five games to play, and we walked them down to 1137 00:57:55,840 --> 00:58:00,160 Speaker 3: beat them. I mean that that was when you know 1138 00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:04,360 Speaker 3: Josh was what was flexing right. That's when this offense 1139 00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:05,160 Speaker 3: looks like it did. 1140 00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 2: Joe Brady says, I like when Josh gets hit sometimes. 1141 00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 8: Exactly want to I like it when he get hit, 1142 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 8: and I like it that he's out there talking trash. 1143 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,400 Speaker 8: He was voted the number one trash talker last year 1144 00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:21,000 Speaker 8: and he wasn't doing it, but this game he did it. 1145 00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:26,200 Speaker 4: And that's what it Just bring it out every single week. 1146 00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:29,680 Speaker 8: I think that's the kind of team that that people 1147 00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:32,479 Speaker 8: love to see.

But you start putting, 1187 01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 3: you start to make a big red circle around that 1188 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 3: week fifteen game in New England. And right now it's 1189 01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:31,920 Speaker 3: still there. It still seems like it's going to be important. 1190 01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:35,440 Speaker 4: And uh, it's still going to be important, you know. 1191 01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:43,000 Speaker 4: I mean it's three weeks away. I mean, it's not 1192 01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:43,960 Speaker 4: that far away. 1193 01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,480 Speaker 3: Think about it. I'm doing this, and think about it. 1194 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 3: We got it. We got so far to go. We 1195 01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:54,200 Speaker 3: got nine games, nine weeks, right, eight weeks. 1196 01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:57,600 Speaker 4: It's critical, it's critically in where we want to get to. 1197 01:00:57,680 --> 01:00:59,880 Speaker 3: What is it, seven games, eight weeks or something or 1198 01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 3: seven weeks, seven weeks. It's so it's hard to and 1199 01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:08,680 Speaker 3: the Patriots have done it. But I'll say this, it's 1200 01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:10,440 Speaker 3: hard to win game after game after game after game 1201 01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 3: after game after game, even when you're a good team 1202 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:15,760 Speaker 3: playing well because there's just so many things that can 1203 01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:19,000 Speaker 3: go wrong, a bad penalty, a wrong call, a missed spot, 1204 01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:24,080 Speaker 3: the whole thing, and to play at that level. That's 1205 01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:26,080 Speaker 3: why I talked about this in the first month of 1206 01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:28,760 Speaker 3: the season when the Bills are four to oh and 1207 01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,840 Speaker 3: looking like you know, after that Baltimore win, and it's 1208 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 3: just unbelievable. Right, you're on top of the world, and man, 1209 01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:38,120 Speaker 3: it's hard to play this good for a long time. Hey, 1210 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:42,360 Speaker 3: we don't want to peak, right, And I remember there's 1211 01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:44,520 Speaker 3: been a couple of times in this in the McDermott 1212 01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,160 Speaker 3: era where they did it exactly right. They hit the 1213 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:52,520 Speaker 3: playoffs healthy, fresh, and on an uptick. And I think 1214 01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:56,040 Speaker 3: McDermott thinks about things like that, not that he doesn't 1215 01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:57,919 Speaker 3: want to win every game and he puts everything into it, 1216 01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:03,200 Speaker 3: but he handles his roster, the practice squad, elevations, the benchings, 1217 01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 3: the whole thing. He handles them the right way so 1218 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:09,280 Speaker 3: that at the end of the season, everybody knows their role, 1219 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:13,160 Speaker 3: everybody's excited about their role, everybody believes they can contribute 1220 01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:14,920 Speaker 3: in their role. Everybody know what they need, and everybody 1221 01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:17,880 Speaker 3: wants to put their foot on the gas there. He's 1222 01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:19,880 Speaker 3: been very good at that as a head coach. And 1223 01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 3: we'll see. Because we got seven weeks to go. It's 1224 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,760 Speaker 3: not even time to start thinking about it, right, I mean, 1225 01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:26,720 Speaker 3: oh my gosh, there's so much football to be played. 1226 01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:28,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want to you want to put together 1227 01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:30,560 Speaker 2: at the right time, and you want to ride into 1228 01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:32,440 Speaker 2: the playoffs feeling like you're playing your best. 1229 01:02:32,840 --> 01:02:34,960 Speaker 3: Guys are gonna get hurt and come back before we 1230 01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:35,760 Speaker 3: I mean, that's all. 1231 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:36,040 Speaker 4: I mean. 1232 01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:38,360 Speaker 8: You might need to get like on a five or 1233 01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:41,360 Speaker 8: six game winnistry. I mean, you know that the one 1234 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 8: loss win loss, that doesn't blend. 1235 01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:48,440 Speaker 4: Especially we got three. We got three losses already. 1236 01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:50,280 Speaker 3: Right, so what you're the five seats. 1237 01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:53,960 Speaker 8: You're the five seat And who knows who're going to 1238 01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:57,320 Speaker 8: catch the Colt.

In twenty twenty two, 1352 01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:05,120 Speaker 2: they went on a run in Week eleven and won 1353 01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:07,040 Speaker 2: out the entire the rest of the way, so they 1354 01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:10,840 Speaker 2: won seven straight games. Of course, we had that Cincinnati 1355 01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:14,240 Speaker 2: Bengals game that did not finish up because of DeMar Hamlin, 1356 01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:17,000 Speaker 2: but they won out that the rest of that season. 1357 01:08:17,320 --> 01:08:20,439 Speaker 2: So maybe they go on to run something similar to that. 1358 01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:23,320 Speaker 3: I saw this too.

I still think they got 1397 01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:10,200 Speaker 3: to score thirty to beat the Bills. I don't care 1398 01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 3: who the Bills they're gonna hang because the Bills play 1399 01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:18,120 Speaker 3: horrible and they're hanging thirty on people.

We're going to take a break, but 1477 01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:09,519 Speaker 2: when we return more One Bills Live coming your way. 1478 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:25,479 Speaker 2: We are presented by Clyde Helth on Buffalo Bills Radio. 1479 01:14:25,720 --> 01:14:27,840 Speaker 2: All right, welcome back to One Bills Live. Matti Glavin, 1480 01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:30,599 Speaker 2: Steve Tasker. We just had Thurman Thomas in the studio 1481 01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:33,200 Speaker 2: for our great conversation. He brought up a I think 1482 01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:35,040 Speaker 2: a great point in what we need to see out 1483 01:14:35,040 --> 01:14:38,320 Speaker 2: of Buffalo's offense moving forward. It's on the offensive line 1484 01:14:38,360 --> 01:14:42,720 Speaker 2: to have a game against the Houston Texans defensive line 1485 01:14:42,720 --> 01:14:46,519 Speaker 2: that is known for knocking down the quarterback. And we'll 1486 01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:51,240 Speaker 2: get into Gabe's Collision. It's collision course presented by Gabe's Collision, 1487 01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:54,559 Speaker 2: your Car's best defense. And what we think is going 1488 01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:57,559 Speaker 2: to be the collision course matchup in this week twelve 1489 01:14:57,640 --> 01:15:02,280 Speaker 2: game is Buffalo's offensive line and against the Texans defensive 1490 01:15:02,560 --> 01:15:07,000 Speaker 2: ends that's Will Anderson Junior as well as Daniil Hunter. Now, 1491 01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:10,680 Speaker 2: Hunter leads the Texans with nine sacks that's tied for 1492 01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 2: fourth best in the league. Will Anderson Junior has eight 1493 01:15:14,640 --> 01:15:17,559 Speaker 2: sacks that's tied for seventh best in the league. They're 1494 01:15:17,600 --> 01:15:20,040 Speaker 2: the only teammate duo in the NFL in twenty twenty 1495 01:15:20,040 --> 01:15:23,080 Speaker 2: five that each has at least eight sacks. So you 1496 01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:24,840 Speaker 2: know what that means. They know how to get after 1497 01:15:24,880 --> 01:15:28,240 Speaker 2: the quarterback. And you're dealing with a defensive line like 1498 01:15:28,240 --> 01:15:30,320 Speaker 2: that and a head coach like Demiko Ryans who is 1499 01:15:30,360 --> 01:15:33,760 Speaker 2: going to throw interesting pressure packages at the quarterback at 1500 01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:36,240 Speaker 2: the offensive line, and it is about the offensive line 1501 01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:38,280 Speaker 2: and how they can protect their quarterback. 1502 01:15:39,040 --> 01:15:41,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're Sean McDermott, Matty, If you and I 1503 01:15:41,800 --> 01:15:45,000 Speaker 3: are the coaching staff of the Bills and we've got 1504 01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:49,960 Speaker 3: this guy, Josh Allen, what's your fallot going into a 1505 01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:52,320 Speaker 3: team that you know can get after the quarterback. Your 1506 01:15:52,360 --> 01:15:56,320 Speaker 3: quarterback's hard to sack. He's more willing this year probably 1507 01:15:56,360 --> 01:15:58,240 Speaker 3: to take sacks than he ever has been. Right, We've 1508 01:15:58,240 --> 01:16:00,280 Speaker 3: seen him take way more sex to this year year 1509 01:16:00,439 --> 01:16:02,680 Speaker 3: than he ever has. And they all seem, i know, 1510 01:16:03,479 --> 01:16:04,800 Speaker 3: for lack of a better way to put it, they 1511 01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:05,840 Speaker 3: all seem voluntary. 1512 01:16:05,960 --> 01:16:08,760 Speaker 2: Right, So twenty sacks taken so far. 1513 01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:11,480 Speaker 3: Right, and which is an outrageous number for Josh. 1514 01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:13,280 Speaker 2: When he had fourteen sacks last year. 1515 01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:16,880 Speaker 3: Right, all of last whole year. So he's already it's 1516 01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:18,640 Speaker 3: already kind of a different year that way. And you 1517 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:24,800 Speaker 3: can say, well, it's because whatever do you if you're 1518 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:27,840 Speaker 3: the Bills coaching staff, like in this scenario, you and 1519 01:16:27,880 --> 01:16:30,599 Speaker 3: I are making the decision, do you do what we 1520 01:16:30,760 --> 01:16:33,800 Speaker 3: talked about with Thurman Thomas. They listen, We're not gonna 1521 01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:37,599 Speaker 3: let these guys rush the passer. They can be run 1522 01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:40,519 Speaker 3: stuffers if they want, but they ain't gonna rush our 1523 01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:42,840 Speaker 3: pass because we ain't even throwing it that much. If 1524 01:16:42,840 --> 01:16:45,040 Speaker 3: when we throw it we're gonna do something to balls 1525 01:16:45,040 --> 01:16:47,120 Speaker 3: out of his hand. We're never You're never gonna get 1526 01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:50,479 Speaker 3: near our guy. We're handing it off and the ball's 1527 01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:51,200 Speaker 3: coming out quick. 1528 01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:57,240 Speaker 2: What do you think based on how the Bills played 1529 01:16:57,280 --> 01:16:59,920 Speaker 2: the Texans, I think you might see a fair sho 1530 01:17:00,360 --> 01:17:03,720 Speaker 2: of maybe not handing it off quick, but also the 1531 01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:05,280 Speaker 2: quick passing game, getting. 1532 01:17:05,040 --> 01:17:08,000 Speaker 3: Involved right, getting the ball out quick. Yeah. 1533 01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:09,880 Speaker 2: So I think I think we're going to see a 1534 01:17:09,920 --> 01:17:11,800 Speaker 2: decent amount of that in this game, just to get 1535 01:17:11,800 --> 01:17:14,360 Speaker 2: the offense in a rhythm. Maybe that's how you start 1536 01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:17,000 Speaker 2: off the game, is the quick passing game, getting it 1537 01:17:17,040 --> 01:17:19,559 Speaker 2: out quickly to make sure Josh doesn't feeling the heat, 1538 01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:22,720 Speaker 2: getting the offensive line set in what they're doing, and 1539 01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:26,640 Speaker 2: then you move into other things based on how successful 1540 01:17:26,680 --> 01:17:28,280 Speaker 2: you are at the quick passing game. 1541 01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:31,800 Speaker 3: Let's not forget too, You've got you got to do 1542 01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:35,120 Speaker 3: both well. Because they're the number three passing offense defense 1543 01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:39,599 Speaker 3: and the number three rushing defense. I mean, they're they're 1544 01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:42,080 Speaker 3: good at both. It's not like, remember you know, some 1545 01:17:42,160 --> 01:17:45,040 Speaker 3: teams they're terrible against the pass because they can't stop 1546 01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:46,800 Speaker 3: the run. Nobody even takes time to throw it against them. 1547 01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:49,599 Speaker 3: They just run it down their throat. Presto chaninjo, you lose. 1548 01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:53,920 Speaker 3: This is not that they're good at both, and they've 1549 01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:54,639 Speaker 3: been tested. 1550 01:17:54,760 --> 01:17:56,479 Speaker 2: I mean, now we're you know, I mean, they're allowing 1551 01:17:56,800 --> 01:18:00,640 Speaker 2: eighty seven rushing yards a game. That's like such a small. 1552 01:18:00,560 --> 01:18:02,760 Speaker 3: It's a very small number compared. 1553 01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:04,920 Speaker 2: To how many we average a game, which is around 1554 01:18:04,960 --> 01:18:08,160 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty rushing yards a game. That's something's 1555 01:18:08,200 --> 01:18:11,559 Speaker 2: got to give within those matchups. How do you feel 1556 01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:13,919 Speaker 2: like Buffalo's offense approaches this game. 1557 01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:16,960 Speaker 3: Well, they will do what they can to protect Josh 1558 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:20,880 Speaker 3: for sure. And here's where. And we talk about this 1559 01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:22,960 Speaker 3: all the time. And if people get wring their hands over, 1560 01:18:23,040 --> 01:18:26,280 Speaker 3: I don't think this is an admission of anything, except 1561 01:18:26,280 --> 01:18:29,880 Speaker 3: it's what you got to do. Put two backs back 1562 01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:31,640 Speaker 3: there with them, or leave a tight end in the 1563 01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:35,880 Speaker 3: game with three wides and running back on. The running 1564 01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:38,720 Speaker 3: back releases one way chips on the defensive end to 1565 01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:41,479 Speaker 3: give the tackle some help, the tight end chips on 1566 01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:44,000 Speaker 3: the other side to give the other tackle some help. 1567 01:18:44,200 --> 01:18:46,559 Speaker 3: Everybody else gets open. You know, runs the route and 1568 01:18:46,560 --> 01:18:48,120 Speaker 3: you got a little extra help for Josh, and I 1569 01:18:48,240 --> 01:18:52,120 Speaker 3: max protected five offensive linemen, a running back and a 1570 01:18:52,160 --> 01:18:55,120 Speaker 3: tight end, and they're all protecting. You got three guys 1571 01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:57,000 Speaker 3: out in the route quick Now, each one of those 1572 01:18:57,040 --> 01:19:00,760 Speaker 3: guys who chip can release and get open, but they 1573 01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:02,679 Speaker 3: are like a third or fourth option in the progression 1574 01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:05,400 Speaker 3: because it'll take Josh's eyes a long time to find them. 1575 01:19:05,720 --> 01:19:07,280 Speaker 3: So I think some of that will happen in the 1576 01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:12,360 Speaker 3: drop back game. But I do think as well, I 1577 01:19:12,439 --> 01:19:16,920 Speaker 3: think you need to make them really express their desire 1578 01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:20,479 Speaker 3: to be physical in the run game. You know, force 1579 01:19:20,560 --> 01:19:24,799 Speaker 3: the Houston Texans to really bear up to stop you, 1580 01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:28,360 Speaker 3: you know, some thirteen personnel. I mean you've got Kincaide 1581 01:19:28,400 --> 01:19:31,240 Speaker 3: sitting on the bench anyway, ye let law to put 1582 01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:33,360 Speaker 3: Lat two in the game with them and start pushing 1583 01:19:33,360 --> 01:19:37,360 Speaker 3: guys around if you can with haws and knocks. So 1584 01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:43,280 Speaker 3: and Gilliam, I think you get really physical with them 1585 01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:48,559 Speaker 3: up front offensively, make them really commit to stopping the run, 1586 01:19:49,240 --> 01:19:51,519 Speaker 3: and then you know, the play action and the quick 1587 01:19:51,560 --> 01:19:54,880 Speaker 3: release passes and will come out and you'll get some 1588 01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:56,080 Speaker 3: opportunities in the back end. 1589 01:19:56,120 --> 01:19:58,839 Speaker 2: That way, you speak about being a little bit heavier 1590 01:19:58,920 --> 01:20:01,839 Speaker 2: upfront personnel, and with Daln Kincaid out of the lineup, 1591 01:20:02,240 --> 01:20:04,519 Speaker 2: maybe you see a little bit more of twenty two 1592 01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:08,000 Speaker 2: and twenty one personnel. The Bills are really successful at 1593 01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:10,559 Speaker 2: twenty two personnel, so that's two tight ends, two running 1594 01:20:10,560 --> 01:20:12,240 Speaker 2: backs on the field at the same time. They lead 1595 01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:15,000 Speaker 2: the NFL with three hundred and thirty rushing yards out 1596 01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:19,080 Speaker 2: of twenty two this season, twenty one rushing first downs 1597 01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:21,840 Speaker 2: out of twenty twenty out of twenty two personnel. They've 1598 01:20:21,880 --> 01:20:25,400 Speaker 2: thrown the ball out of twenty two as well. They'll 1599 01:20:25,479 --> 01:20:27,720 Speaker 2: usually run the ball out of a heavy personnel like that, 1600 01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:30,080 Speaker 2: of course, but maybe you see a little bit more 1601 01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:31,960 Speaker 2: of that because they've been so successful already. 1602 01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:34,760 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, but Reggie's been playing a lot, yes, and 1603 01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:37,559 Speaker 3: that's the reason they always like Kincaid and Knocks on 1604 01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:39,400 Speaker 3: the field at the same time. But now it's Haws 1605 01:20:39,520 --> 01:20:41,840 Speaker 3: and Knocks and once in a while a lot too. 1606 01:20:41,880 --> 01:20:46,040 Speaker 3: But it's Haws and Knocks playing the tight ends. And 1607 01:20:46,080 --> 01:20:48,679 Speaker 3: I think you like those options in the passing game 1608 01:20:48,720 --> 01:20:52,160 Speaker 3: as well to a certain extent, But Gillian gives you 1609 01:20:52,200 --> 01:20:56,840 Speaker 3: that flexibility of motion and shifts and all of that 1610 01:20:56,840 --> 01:21:01,160 Speaker 3: that can tip the scales in the run game. Yeah, 1611 01:21:01,479 --> 01:21:03,800 Speaker 3: you're right, Maddie. That might be the thing they do 1612 01:21:03,920 --> 01:21:10,559 Speaker 3: is go twenty two personnel and get heavy that way, 1613 01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:12,479 Speaker 3: because then they can still have they still have guys 1614 01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:14,080 Speaker 3: nifty enough to go out and catch balls. 1615 01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:17,760 Speaker 2: And if you're using your running backs in the passing game, you. 1616 01:21:18,400 --> 01:21:21,080 Speaker 3: Well, you can go twenty two. I've said this too, 1617 01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:22,920 Speaker 3: and I haven't seen it now. They won't do it 1618 01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:26,360 Speaker 3: because I thought of it. But but you know, you 1619 01:21:26,400 --> 01:21:28,920 Speaker 3: put Gilliam in there with James Cook in the eye, 1620 01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:31,599 Speaker 3: then they both they shift all of a sudden. Gillion's 1621 01:21:31,640 --> 01:21:33,839 Speaker 3: in the eye and Cook goes out in the slot 1622 01:21:35,080 --> 01:21:42,040 Speaker 3: and Reggie's the tailback he can protect from there. I 1623 01:21:42,160 --> 01:21:43,840 Speaker 3: like that. I like to see what they do, you know, 1624 01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:46,920 Speaker 3: what their personnel matchup is for that some other stuff 1625 01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:50,400 Speaker 3: like that. I don't know if you that's a that's 1626 01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:53,120 Speaker 3: a tough rabbit hole to go down with three days 1627 01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:57,639 Speaker 3: of prep. Yeah, you know, so, I think what Houston 1628 01:21:57,720 --> 01:22:00,519 Speaker 3: will see once they analyze this game after the fact, 1629 01:22:00,960 --> 01:22:03,880 Speaker 3: and I haven't thought about that until just this minute. 1630 01:22:04,160 --> 01:22:06,320 Speaker 3: Both teams, when you go back and look at what 1631 01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:07,880 Speaker 3: they did to you and what you thought they were 1632 01:22:07,920 --> 01:22:10,360 Speaker 3: gonna do, and what you'd seen them do, you're gonna 1633 01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:12,200 Speaker 3: get a lot of what they had already done because 1634 01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:14,680 Speaker 3: they didn't have time to do anything exotic on a 1635 01:22:14,680 --> 01:22:15,200 Speaker 3: short week. 1636 01:22:15,360 --> 01:22:17,600 Speaker 2: That's a really good point. So what you've watched on 1637 01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:18,559 Speaker 2: tape already is. 1638 01:22:18,560 --> 01:22:19,120 Speaker 3: You're gonna see it. 1639 01:22:19,200 --> 01:22:19,920 Speaker 2: You're gonna see that. 1640 01:22:19,880 --> 01:22:22,000 Speaker 3: You're gonna see what they've done well, and you're gonna 1641 01:22:22,000 --> 01:22:26,320 Speaker 3: see what they've done well, particularly in schemes and concepts 1642 01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:33,400 Speaker 3: and personnel groupings that you've struggled with. Right, So if 1643 01:22:33,600 --> 01:22:35,599 Speaker 3: if the Bills, for instance, if the Bills have struggled 1644 01:22:35,600 --> 01:22:38,519 Speaker 3: against dime pressure, you're gonna get a ton of it 1645 01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:42,760 Speaker 3: against Houston the way Houston has done. Right, same thing 1646 01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:47,760 Speaker 3: with Houston. If if they've struggled against two tight ends, 1647 01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:51,200 Speaker 3: two backs in a passing game, they're gonna get a 1648 01:22:51,240 --> 01:22:53,240 Speaker 3: ton of it. Whatever the Bills have to give that 1649 01:22:53,280 --> 01:22:56,600 Speaker 3: to them. So, but whatever they get, they're gonna have 1650 01:22:56,640 --> 01:22:59,240 Speaker 3: probably already seen in other games because you're not gonna 1651 01:22:59,240 --> 01:23:04,479 Speaker 3: start pulling things down on a short week. That's a 1652 01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:06,080 Speaker 3: big ask, I think for your personnel. 1653 01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:09,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, yep. And the Bills just conducted walk through practices 1654 01:23:10,000 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 2: this week too. It wasn't right like they were out 1655 01:23:12,200 --> 01:23:15,920 Speaker 2: there practicing full speed. This is something that they had 1656 01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:17,720 Speaker 2: a few days to prepare for. And when you're on 1657 01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:21,080 Speaker 2: Thursday night football week eleven or twelve, I should say 1658 01:23:21,320 --> 01:23:24,720 Speaker 2: the number one priority is resting and making sure your 1659 01:23:24,720 --> 01:23:27,759 Speaker 2: guys are ready to go and healthy. Let's get into 1660 01:23:27,920 --> 01:23:31,080 Speaker 2: our tweet sheet. It's presented by Corgan Moving Systems, the 1661 01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:35,160 Speaker 2: official equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills. Our question 1662 01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:38,320 Speaker 2: today is what is a more important matchup this week? 1663 01:23:38,400 --> 01:23:42,479 Speaker 2: And from Mike. Mike says the Bill's defense Houston with 1664 01:23:42,560 --> 01:23:46,280 Speaker 2: their backup quarterback suspect running game no excuses this week, 1665 01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:49,200 Speaker 2: the Bill's defense should be able to be aggressive and 1666 01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:52,360 Speaker 2: control tempo of the game. How awesome would that be? 1667 01:23:52,720 --> 01:23:55,559 Speaker 2: You see the Bills defense come out on their first 1668 01:23:55,680 --> 01:23:58,840 Speaker 2: series of the game and really have a statement, whether 1669 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:01,200 Speaker 2: that's a three and out, whether that's a take away 1670 01:24:03,240 --> 01:24:06,360 Speaker 2: limiting Houston right away. I think momentum to start a 1671 01:24:06,360 --> 01:24:08,080 Speaker 2: game like this is gonna be huge. And if for 1672 01:24:08,120 --> 01:24:12,160 Speaker 2: your defense can give it to your offense, hey sign 1673 01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:12,439 Speaker 2: me up. 1674 01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:16,080 Speaker 3: The Yeah. The thought is, I mean you're literally playing 1675 01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:21,160 Speaker 3: against their backup quarterback. You need you need to force 1676 01:24:21,280 --> 01:24:30,560 Speaker 3: the game onto that guy's plate. Pressures exotic looks. I 1677 01:24:30,600 --> 01:24:35,000 Speaker 3: think a heavy box where he thinks, Okay, they're gonna 1678 01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:36,920 Speaker 3: be right up here at the line, screams, I'm gonna 1679 01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:38,160 Speaker 3: try and throw it over the top of them. I'm 1680 01:24:38,160 --> 01:24:41,080 Speaker 3: gonna try to do that. You've got to, I think, 1681 01:24:41,200 --> 01:24:44,760 Speaker 3: push the ball onto the plate of Davis Mills. Now 1682 01:24:44,840 --> 01:24:46,760 Speaker 3: unless the film tells them a little bit something of that. 1683 01:24:46,800 --> 01:24:48,720 Speaker 3: If they can't run the football. Because they can't run 1684 01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:52,559 Speaker 3: the football, invite him to run the football, right, you know, 1685 01:24:53,120 --> 01:24:58,360 Speaker 3: go four down linemen, two linebackers, five dbs. Yes, spread 1686 01:24:58,360 --> 01:25:02,280 Speaker 3: it out. We invite you to try and fil dime 1687 01:25:03,479 --> 01:25:05,360 Speaker 3: whatever the film tells him. I think the Bills can 1688 01:25:05,360 --> 01:25:09,160 Speaker 3: do either of those defensively. But there's a reason the 1689 01:25:10,920 --> 01:25:13,400 Speaker 3: Houston's offense ranks were ranks. 1690 01:25:13,560 --> 01:25:16,719 Speaker 2: Twenty third rushing offense, sixteenth passing offense. 1691 01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:20,800 Speaker 3: So I think you've got to push back against both 1692 01:25:20,840 --> 01:25:25,400 Speaker 3: of those out and with a backup quarterback Davis Mills. 1693 01:25:25,439 --> 01:25:27,240 Speaker 3: This is not his first rodeo. So you've got a 1694 01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:29,760 Speaker 3: lot of film on him, You've got a dossier on him. 1695 01:25:30,120 --> 01:25:31,720 Speaker 3: You can go back and say, okay, here's where he 1696 01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:35,320 Speaker 3: has struggled, here's and let's let's invite him to do that, 1697 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:38,280 Speaker 3: which he has struggled in and we'll see. 1698 01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:40,639 Speaker 2: He's turned the ball over a couple times in those 1699 01:25:40,680 --> 01:25:43,120 Speaker 2: two games and two and a half games, I should say, 1700 01:25:43,120 --> 01:25:45,920 Speaker 2: when he replaced Straut a few weeks ago. And Mills 1701 01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:49,360 Speaker 2: is actually seeing better production out of Houston's offense with 1702 01:25:49,479 --> 01:25:53,439 Speaker 2: him as quarterback. Their numbers are up in totally arge 1703 01:25:53,479 --> 01:25:55,840 Speaker 2: per game, passing yards per game, third down conversions, and 1704 01:25:55,960 --> 01:25:59,720 Speaker 2: red zone efficiency with Mills at the quarterback position. So 1705 01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:02,360 Speaker 2: we'll see if they can have an effective game against 1706 01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:05,960 Speaker 2: Buffalo's defense. We're asking what is the most important matchup 1707 01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:09,120 Speaker 2: this week, the Bill's offense against the Texans defense or 1708 01:26:09,200 --> 01:26:12,640 Speaker 2: the Bill's defense against the Texans offense. Scott says the 1709 01:26:12,640 --> 01:26:15,320 Speaker 2: offensive line needs to be able to establish the line 1710 01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:19,040 Speaker 2: of scrimmage early and often we hear Sean McDermitt say 1711 01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:22,320 Speaker 2: all the time, the game is in the trenches, that's 1712 01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:25,040 Speaker 2: where everything starts. And when you're going up against a 1713 01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:29,080 Speaker 2: tough defensive line, you really want to establish your line 1714 01:26:29,080 --> 01:26:29,639 Speaker 2: of scrimmage. 1715 01:26:29,920 --> 01:26:32,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, you just can't. You cannot let them wreck the game. 1716 01:26:34,320 --> 01:26:38,839 Speaker 3: Sometimes a draw a draw is a win for the offense, 1717 01:26:38,880 --> 01:26:43,559 Speaker 3: particularly in pass pro. Yeah, not so much. In the 1718 01:26:43,600 --> 01:26:48,559 Speaker 3: run game. But the run game, you can get angles 1719 01:26:48,600 --> 01:26:50,040 Speaker 3: and you can get some movement. 1720 01:26:50,439 --> 01:26:50,680 Speaker 1: Do that. 1721 01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:54,960 Speaker 3: But yeah, that's the line of scrimmage is where it's at. 1722 01:26:54,960 --> 01:26:57,559 Speaker 3: And this team has drafted like that over the past 1723 01:26:57,640 --> 01:27:01,920 Speaker 3: years as well. They draft big dudes, those one percenters. 1724 01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:04,360 Speaker 3: They're hard to get anywhere but the NFL draft, right, 1725 01:27:04,400 --> 01:27:08,880 Speaker 3: so they look for me. Deon Walker is a great 1726 01:27:10,439 --> 01:27:13,200 Speaker 3: example of that. You know, you think he's a he's 1727 01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:16,559 Speaker 3: a big dude. So you gotta lean on those guys 1728 01:27:16,560 --> 01:27:19,400 Speaker 3: and see if you can see if your big guys 1729 01:27:19,400 --> 01:27:20,519 Speaker 3: are better than they're big guys. 1730 01:27:21,080 --> 01:27:24,720 Speaker 2: On offense, going into Houston playing the best defense in 1731 01:27:24,760 --> 01:27:27,599 Speaker 2: the NFL, that atmosphere is going to be wild. It's 1732 01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:30,240 Speaker 2: going to be loud. Communication is going to be so 1733 01:27:30,640 --> 01:27:34,680 Speaker 2: important for Buffalo's offense, especially their offensive line, communicating with 1734 01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:37,439 Speaker 2: each other, making sure they're on the same page. We 1735 01:27:37,479 --> 01:27:40,160 Speaker 2: hear from left tackle Dion Dawkins all the time. We 1736 01:27:40,240 --> 01:27:42,600 Speaker 2: don't always have to be on the correct page, but 1737 01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:44,760 Speaker 2: we all need to be on the same page, even 1738 01:27:45,080 --> 01:27:47,519 Speaker 2: if it's the wrong play, because that's going to help us. 1739 01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:49,599 Speaker 2: When the ball is snapped, we got to take a break, 1740 01:27:49,600 --> 01:27:51,599 Speaker 2: but when we return we're closing things up here at 1741 01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:57,559 Speaker 2: one Bill's Live represented by Client Health on Buffalo Bills Radio. 1742 01:28:09,760 --> 01:28:11,559 Speaker 2: All right, we're going back to the tweet she does. 1743 01:28:11,600 --> 01:28:14,519 Speaker 2: Her question today was what is more important matchup this week, 1744 01:28:14,560 --> 01:28:17,720 Speaker 2: Bill's offense against Texans defense or Bill's defense against the 1745 01:28:17,720 --> 01:28:21,360 Speaker 2: Texans offense. Connor says the Texans defense maybe the best 1746 01:28:21,360 --> 01:28:23,639 Speaker 2: in the league. Hunter and Anderson Junior have the ability 1747 01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:26,200 Speaker 2: to wreck the game, protecting Allan and giving him time 1748 01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:29,120 Speaker 2: as critical. With Samuel and Hardman out, it would see 1749 01:28:29,160 --> 01:28:31,640 Speaker 2: that Coleman is back. I'm weird about speed from the 1750 01:28:31,680 --> 01:28:33,759 Speaker 2: wide receivers to draw attention away. 1751 01:28:34,040 --> 01:28:36,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, you can't hit. They won't hit Josh if he 1752 01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 3: doesn't have the ball, if he's handing it off in 1753 01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:41,640 Speaker 3: the run, game's clicking. Everything changes now. Says that's a 1754 01:28:41,680 --> 01:28:44,400 Speaker 3: big ask because of the quality of their run defense 1755 01:28:44,439 --> 01:28:48,040 Speaker 3: as well. But you know they've got to defend everything 1756 01:28:48,120 --> 01:28:52,679 Speaker 3: all the time with this offense. This offense is ranked 1757 01:28:52,760 --> 01:28:55,840 Speaker 3: just as highly as their defense is. So we'll see 1758 01:28:55,840 --> 01:28:58,080 Speaker 3: how that plays out. I've said it a couple of times. 1759 01:28:58,120 --> 01:29:00,799 Speaker 3: I think you can count on the Bill score and thirty. 1760 01:29:01,400 --> 01:29:03,760 Speaker 3: They're gonna be right in that neighborhood twenty eight thirty two. 1761 01:29:04,600 --> 01:29:06,599 Speaker 3: And then if they get an extra a good player, 1762 01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:08,200 Speaker 3: if it goes really well for him, it's gonna be 1763 01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:12,880 Speaker 3: more than that. But that's the floor, So Houston's offense 1764 01:29:12,920 --> 01:29:15,479 Speaker 3: is gonna have to keep up with that and over 1765 01:29:15,520 --> 01:29:16,880 Speaker 3: the course of four quarters. That's big. 1766 01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:20,799 Speaker 2: Ask Q two says, I think the Bill's strategy strategy 1767 01:29:20,800 --> 01:29:23,400 Speaker 2: should go vanilla on offense and defense, get out of 1768 01:29:23,439 --> 01:29:26,599 Speaker 2: the game healthy with the ten day window rest window. 1769 01:29:26,640 --> 01:29:28,800 Speaker 2: You don't need this win. What I like them to win? Yes, 1770 01:29:29,080 --> 01:29:31,400 Speaker 2: I think the Bills need this win at this point 1771 01:29:31,400 --> 01:29:31,960 Speaker 2: in the season. 1772 01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:34,719 Speaker 3: You are you gotta win now. They're gonna do everything. 1773 01:29:34,720 --> 01:29:36,600 Speaker 3: They're gonna be their best shot. They'll punch them with 1774 01:29:36,640 --> 01:29:39,400 Speaker 3: their best hit and then go from there. We'll see, 1775 01:29:39,600 --> 01:29:40,080 Speaker 3: all right. 1776 01:29:40,120 --> 01:29:43,519 Speaker 2: Thanks for tuning into one Bills Live A for Steve Tasker. 1777 01:29:43,560 --> 01:29:46,280 Speaker 2: I'm Maddi Glab. Chris Brown is back tomorrow.
