Absent 4 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: in fear. He wants them to play free, played, decisively, 5 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: play without hesitation. The snap Almond pumps once now, looks right, 6 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: fires a strike down field, caught by John Brown at 7 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:42,199 Speaker 1: the fifteen end of the end down touchdown, touchdown, buffleedo 8 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: from the Bills have a thirteen to nothing lead.

It is dropped by hearn. 11 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 1: Didn't he recover? No the loose ball there? Payer may 12 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: have it at the twenty four yard line. Singletary angles 13 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: over the left side, finds room, gets inside the forty, 14 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: inside the thirty five and drag down. Now he's still 15 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 1: on his feet. That ball came out. John Brown advanced 16 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: it all the way down to the twenty four yard line. 17 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: Snap looks looks fires over the middle, got a man 18 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,759 Speaker 1: open at his caught at the fifteen yard line.

He's 21 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: kicked off. Jacke Grant takes a look at it, and 22 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: this time he brings it out from one yard deep 23 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: in the end zone. Puts to his left, now trying 24 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: to cut across the field, gets across the thirty five, 25 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: across the forty. He's across midfield, down the sideline. He 26 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: might score down the sideline at the twenty ten five touchdown, 27 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: Holy mackerel Jachem Grant. Allen ready to go in the gun. 28 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: Takes the snap, looks into the end zone as time 29 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: gets away from some pressure, rolls right. Gonna keep it 30 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: and run with it at the five, headed to the 31 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: corner of the end zone. Is he in? Yes, touchdown Buffalo, 32 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: Josh Allen touchdown. Here's the snap from the nine.

Seventeen point Buffalo leave snap 36 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,239 Speaker 1: fitz Patrick pressure Zack jack Lawson will get credit for 37 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: the sack at Oliver was in on the tail end 38 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: of it. Kneel down. Time for Josh Hallon and listen 39 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: to the crowd, the Buffalo crowd that has taken over 40 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: hard Rock Stadium. We can point at the one hundred 41 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 1: one yard kickoff return and a couple of defensive lapses, 42 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: but a good, solid game and exactly what this Bills 43 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: team needed on both sides of the football today. They 44 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: sure day they got it too. That's the Game rewind 45 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: presented by Toshiba, the official copy or company of the 46 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,399 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. They had fun down there, all those Bills fans. 47 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: Good afternoon, Bills fans. Welcome to our show, John Murphy, 48 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: Steve Tansker, Welcome to One Bills Live on Victory Monday. 49 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: The players day off, the game, the day off after 50 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: the big win in Miami yesterday. A really fun game 51 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: and a good win, Steve, A really good win for 52 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: the Bills yesterday. Yeah, there were times at that game. Well, 53 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: the Bills were the better team from start to finish. Now, Miami, 54 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: you know, took a few swings at him and landed 55 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: some punches, but there was really that game was really 56 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: never in doubt. The nineties one hundred and one yard 57 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 1: kickoff return was probably the highlight for the Dolphins, but man, 58 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: oh Man, I watched I watched the game, and wow, 59 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: the Bill's defense early in that game was suffocating. I 60 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: mean it was. It was unbelievable. And finally Miami made 61 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: some things that fits, made some things happen for him 62 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: to make it not a complete embarrassment. But man, oh man, 63 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: it was a dominating performance by the Bills defense and 64 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: the Bills offense. You called it early in the last week, 65 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: or Louis he thought they would score thirty points on them, 66 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: and they certainly did thirty seven points. It's a really 67 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: good day for Buffalo, for the team. They looked like 68 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: a good football team playing against a bad football team. Yep. 69 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,119 Speaker 1: Once I saw Miami a couple of games on video, 70 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: even in their victories leading up to the Bills game, 71 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: it was pretty clear they weren't in Buffaloes class. And look, 72 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: the Bills are not a great team, but they're a 73 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: very good team. And now a team was seven wins 74 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: in ten games, a very good seven and three record, 75 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: squarely in playoff contention in the AFC. Should remain there, 76 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: with more work to be done. But the Bills are 77 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: a very good team, I thought, and showed that defensively, especially. 78 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: I thought it was kind of a breakout game of 79 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: sorts for Josh Allen, who threw it with authority. I 80 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: mean that throw the touchdown passed, the first one to 81 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,600 Speaker 1: John Brown was an absolute fastball strike. I mean it 82 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: just zipped right to him. That was the one touchdown 83 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: play that came at me and I had the best 84 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: view of that one of all of them. But he 85 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: was he was good. Josh Allen was good. It wasn't perfect, 86 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: but he was good, I think most of the day yesterday. 87 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,239 Speaker 1: And here's the thing, and it's reinforced by Josh Allen's 88 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: touchdown run in the second half, the nine yard run 89 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: for the touchdown. I think it was nine right, Yeah, 90 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: this guy is a beast. He is a physical force 91 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: to be reckoned with if you're playing the Bills. And 92 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: you know, we had the big debate almost early this year. 93 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: Do they want him running that much? Do you want 94 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: him running that much? Yeah? I think you do, especially 95 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 1: at this stage of his career, at this stage of 96 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: his health and his strength, you do want him run 97 00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: running it that much. He is a force to be 98 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: reckon with in the running game. And that touchdown running 99 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: around the right side, Steve, I mean, he was fast, 100 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: he was strong, he got hit and he bounced right 101 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: back up, hung on to the ball as he went 102 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: to the ground. I mean, that's just a special play. 103 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: Very few quarterbacks can do that. He Cam Newton maybe 104 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: comes to mind, but that's about it. A guy who 105 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: could be a forts in the run game. The way 106 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: Josh he rushed in for that touchdown and there was 107 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: a safety that was coming up to make a play, 108 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: he had no chance. I mean he'd put a pretty 109 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 1: good shot on Josh, and Josh plowed through him. I 110 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: mean he took the brunt of the blow and Alan 111 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: got up like nothing happened. You're right. It is a 112 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 1: weapon that the Bills have. I heard. You know what 113 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: you said this morning earlier was you know, you just 114 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: saw all you know, all the potential and raw materials 115 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: that make Josh Allen this guy that's really intrigued, makes 116 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: him a top ten pick of the draft. And I 117 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: saw the other thing too. You see him doing some 118 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: things that he hasn't done before. You know, the scanning 119 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 1: the football field on the on the John Brown long 120 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: touchdown pass, he looked left, looked left, came back right 121 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: and fired a laser beam down the right side. And 122 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: last week with some of the checks that he made 123 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: and some of the stuff he's doing pre snap. Now 124 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: he's getting it done against a team like Miami, who's 125 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: not a good football team this year, who's in the 126 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: rebuilding mode, who hasn't won a lot of who haven't 127 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: won a lot of games. He's getting stuff like that 128 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: done against an inferior opponent. And slowly but surely that 129 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: the thought would be for me, and I've seen a 130 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: little bit of it. He's doing it against a little 131 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: better He's able to do it a little better team. 132 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: He's doing it against a little better team and a 133 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: little better team even soon hopefully. The thought is that 134 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: the more he sees and the more he experiences, he's 135 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: going to be getting this done to a championship level. 136 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: And we'll see. He's not there yet, but man oh man, 137 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: he's improving. And this is a game where, because of 138 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 1: his abilities as a quarterback, this offense looked pretty good. One. 139 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: It's not the only thing Josh Hellen is. But one 140 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 1: big thing about Josh Hellen, even after twenty one NFL starts, 141 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: I believe, is he is a physical force. He's got 142 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: native skills that regardless of how well he sees the field, 143 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: regardless of his decision making, you have to account for 144 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 1: his abilities to run the ball, to stand in the pocket, 145 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: to deliver a ball with the you know, with a 146 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: fast ball with all kinds of juice on it. I 147 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: mean those are skills, native skills, raw material. Like you 148 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: said that, you know, ninety eight percent of the population 149 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: doesn't have and sixty percent of the quarterbacks in the 150 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,239 Speaker 1: NFL don't have. That's why you choose him seventh overall, 151 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: that's why you invest in him as you're you know, 152 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: starter for both last year and now this year. That's 153 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: why you try to surround him with talent. He's got 154 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: native inborn skills that most quarterbacks don't have, and they're 155 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: building on that, they're making progress with that. I think 156 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: that's pretty evident. Yeah, he's an interesting too the way 157 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: that translated onto the football field. Obviously, he can run fast, 158 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: and he snapped off a thirty six or forty yard 159 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: run in the first half on a run option. And 160 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: the thing that it gives you XS and OOS wise 161 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: as well is and I said this about Cam Newton 162 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: when in the run that the Panthers made to the 163 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: Super Bowl and in those years around that that season 164 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: they had. He's the best short yardage back in the 165 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: league because not only and he can do it out 166 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: a shotgun, he can do it underneath center. He's a 167 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: he's a real problem to challenge because of that. You know, 168 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: they come up and quick snap it or catch you 169 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 1: off guard on a snap he's quarterback sneaks and it's 170 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: a two and a half yard gain. Well that's short yardage, man, 171 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: And that's that's you know, you can't defend it, right, 172 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: I mean, there's just really no defense unless you sell out. 173 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: And as soon as you start selling out, you know, 174 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: he turns around and hands it to you know, Devin 175 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: Singletary or Frank Gore. I mean, short yardage has become 176 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: a real asset for this Bill's team. They were one 177 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,719 Speaker 1: for one on fourth down yesterday. But that's just one 178 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: thing that that gives you that big I mean, he's 179 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: genetically different. I mean the guy's six five plus two 180 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: hundred and whatever many pounds whoever plus pounds, you know, 181 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if he's two fifty or not, 182 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: but man, oh man, a guy's a load and he's fast. Yeah, 183 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: that's a It is a problem, and it's something defenses 184 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: have to think about when they're defending these guys. You 185 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: take those native skills, you build on him, You refine 186 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 1: his ability to read defenses and his ability to diagnose 187 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 1: what's going on out there. And maybe not quite yet, 188 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: but you're getting there. You have a bodified premier level 189 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: NFL quarterback. I think he's he's making that march towards 190 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: that level, and yesterday I think was a big step 191 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: forward for him. Yeah, there's no guarantee that he won't 192 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: take a step back here, and they're like in Cleveland game, 193 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 1: he couldn't. You know, there's a couple of plays to 194 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: be made there that would have made a difference in 195 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: that game is still a close game. The defense that 196 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: he's playing with gives him a big margin of error, 197 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: no question about it. Last yesterday they held the Dolphins 198 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: to fourteen points, you know, and then you add on 199 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,599 Speaker 1: a special team's touchdown as well. I mean, it's a 200 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: it's a pretty good margin of air for a young 201 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: quarterback trying to get better. And when you meet a 202 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: team that's not playing its best like the Dolphins didn't 203 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: yesterday and haven't turns into a seventeen point win. Thirty 204 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: seven twenty the finals. The Bills put up thirty seven. 205 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: They also played great defense. We're here to talk about 206 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: it for the next three hours. Got a good show 207 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: planned for you today.

We'll get him on Skype, as they 216 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: said Josh Allen at one thirty. Chris Brown, Bill's insider 217 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: Chris Brown from Buffalo Bills dot Com joins us at two, 218 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: and Maddie Glavit two thirty with the Maddie's her rewards 219 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: for yesterday's victory over the Miami Dolphins. Bill sweep the Dolphins. 220 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: They've won what five of their last six against the Dolphins. 221 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: It went well. It went about as well as it 222 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: could yesterday in Miami. The weather wasn't great. I'll tell 223 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,559 Speaker 1: you one thing, Stephen. You asked me, you're listening and 224 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: watching some of the highlights the day, and you heard 225 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: the crowd. I've never seen a visiting teams crowd take 226 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: over a stadium the way the Bills fans did yesterday. 227 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: It was amazing. Basically half the stadium behind the Buffalo 228 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: bench was all Bills fans, and I mean all Bills fans, 229 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: thousands of them. Many of them stayed at the end. 230 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: You saw some of the video if you're watching an 231 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: MSG of the reception they gave the players as they 232 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 1: exited the field. But right from the start it it 233 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: was a Buffalo crowd. I mean there were more Bills 234 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: fans there, I would say, and you don't think of 235 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 1: this often, but there were more Bills fans there, and 236 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: they were much louder than the Miami fans. I do 237 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 1: think there were more Bills fans there than Miami fans yesterday. Yeah, 238 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: it's just based on observation. It's a bad stretch for Miami, 239 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: no question about it. They're caught in the in a 240 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: rebuild mode where you know they've got a journeyman quarterback. 241 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: As much as we love him, fits. You know, he's 242 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,559 Speaker 1: a stop gap. They're looking for their their answer for 243 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 1: the long term. They they traded away some really quality 244 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: players and to get some draft picks and some capital 245 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,719 Speaker 1: to go forward, but that's not helping them this year. 246 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: So yeah, this is you know, you get that confluence 247 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 1: of events where the Bills are putting together a really 248 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: good season and the Dolphins are not turned into And 249 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,719 Speaker 1: I noted I didn't wasn't thinking about it, but I 250 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: was watching the game this morning. I was like, wow, 251 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: it caught me the way it sounded on the broadcast. 252 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: When the Bills did something, it was a it was 253 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: a huge roar, and I was like, well, wait a minute, 254 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: that was wrong. But it was obviously the Bills fans 255 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: were out in full force. They were out apparently Saturday 256 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: and the beaches and bars of Fort Lauderdale and continued 257 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: there right till Sunday. Not a great day yesterday. It's 258 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: like sixty two, sixty four degrees and cloudy, very little 259 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: sunshine yesterday, which was fine for the Bills players, I'm sure, 260 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: and even for the fans who didn't sit there and 261 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: bake in the sun at hard Rock Stadium. Yeah, the 262 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: Dolphins had a rough day. And as we said last week, 263 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 1: as I was telling you last week, Thursday and Friday, 264 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 1: especially after I watched the video, they had less talent 265 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: to put on the field than they had the first 266 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: time they played Buffalo a month ago. They had a 267 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 1: couple of wins in their resume, which was okay, wins 268 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: over the Jets and a win over the Jets and 269 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,559 Speaker 1: a win over um, the Colts. But really they weren't. 270 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 1: There wasn't There's not much there. They're not very good, right. 271 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick almost heroic in a losing effort yesterday. I mean 272 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: he put it up for grabs a couple of times 273 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 1: and and did not get picked. But he was, Um, 274 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: he was under siege the entire game, right, Fitzpatrick six 275 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 1: or seven times? Seven times he was sick. I'm looking 276 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 1: for his Corey Lea got a sack. I mean he 277 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: was under siege, and Oliver got a sack. Uh. I 278 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: mean they yeah, it's Patrick through atty five times. Um. 279 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 1: And they had the let's face it, two the you know, 280 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 1: sometimes you do it just because um. But I think 281 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: in this case, the Dolphins knew they had to come 282 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: up with some things to beat the Bills. At this 283 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: point of their season, and you know the surprise on 284 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,439 Speaker 1: side they got. They certainly got that. They got the 285 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: kickoff return for a touchdown, which was a huge boost 286 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: for them. Uh and then you had to you know, 287 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to drop back and throw it early 288 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 1: in that game. I have never seen the Bill's defense 289 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: stifle a running game on the first couple of drives 290 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: like they did the Dolphins on this game. I saw 291 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: also thought and Adam Marshall edited a nice job bringing 292 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 1: it up on the broadcast. The Bills sent a lot 293 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: of pressure, a lot of percentage at the time. And 294 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what we've had people call in the say, 295 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: Tremaine Edmunds needs to be moved to the outside linebacker spot. 296 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: In a way, I'll tell you a couple of things 297 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: he does from the inside linebacker middle linebacker spot that 298 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: nobody else does. That guy flies, He can reach every 299 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: corner of the field because of his range and because 300 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: of his length. And you can say what you want, 301 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: maybe sometimes in the run game he doesn't disengage from 302 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: blockers or whatever whatever criticism you gonna bring, but I'll 303 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: tell you this, when he blitzes, that guy is a force. 304 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: I mean, he is a beast coming in on when 305 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: they bring extra pressure. He's so long and so tall, 306 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: and he can get low on pad level and bullrush people. 307 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: And he appears so enormous in the when it's in 308 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: a tight spade of the pocket, the quarterbacks are ducking 309 00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: him before he's there. He had he had a game yesterday. 310 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: He really did. I thought Tremaine Edmonds really had a 311 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: game yesterday. Matt Milano was all over the place yesterday. 312 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: The Bill's defense, I think, you know, giving up twenty 313 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: points as it did on the scoreboard, even though you 314 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: know thirteen of it was theirs. This defense was stifling yesterday, 315 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: and they played a desperate offense with a with a veteran, savvy, 316 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: although journeyman quarterback who knew where he was gonna have 317 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: to do to win that game. So they hit some 318 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: blows on the Bills in that fight. But man, oh man, 319 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 1: Bill's defense showed up big time. It was funny. We'll 320 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: get Eric Wood talking about it when he joins us 321 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 1: next hour. But he said he had a pregame conversation 322 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: conversation with his buddy Fitz, and fitztold him, I feel good. 323 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: I played a lot this year. It's mid November, but 324 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: I feel pretty good when hour he feels today after 325 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: getting he got back seven times and getting hit as 326 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: much as he did. He took some real shots yesterday, 327 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick did. Yep. Hey, there's a lot to like about yesterday, 328 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: kay am. And we wonder what you like the most. 329 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: What's the number one factor?

Twelve percent say it was the huge 344 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: day for John Brown. He was sensational nine catches, one 345 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: under thirty seven yards, two touchdowns, three percent of something 346 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: else in mind. Let's hear what you think. Give us 347 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: a call eight oh three oh five fifty toll free 348 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty. The 349 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: number one factor in the Bill's victory over the Dolphins. 350 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: What do you think a lot to choose from. I'd 351 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: go defense, Steve, just because the defense early set the tone. 352 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: I think it was clear after two to two and 353 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: a half maybe three series that the Dolphins were not 354 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: going to be able to do anything on offense. And 355 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: I think the rest of the bill the Bills were 356 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: getting field goals first couple of possessions, but I thought 357 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: they sort of drew a lot from the fact that 358 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 1: their defense was so dominant early on, and I thought 359 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,640 Speaker 1: they kind of built on that as the game went along. Yeah, 360 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: I agree, it's it's a factor. I think it does 361 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 1: factor in. And you can say it's you shouldn't or 362 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: you don't like it or whatever. But when you've got 363 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: a defense is playing that well against an opponent, you 364 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,959 Speaker 1: really got to feel good about how that game game 365 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: is gonna turn out. And I think it does affect 366 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: your offensive philosophy. I think it does affect your desire 367 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 1: or the need to start slinging it around. I think 368 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 1: you saw the Dolphins offense and the success they had 369 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: was out of desperation. They knew that they were up 370 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: against it. They couldn't run the football. The only thing 371 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: they could do is get the ball out of Ryan 372 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick's hands to somebody, anybody. They started to be successful 373 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: a little bit on the short passy. They started to 374 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 1: nick the Bills on some down the field throws, but 375 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: only when they could actually get them off. It was. 376 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: It was a rough day for the Miami offense, no 377 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: question about it. Thirteen points is all they could muster 378 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: on that side of the football, and that's just not 379 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: going to get it done, as we've seen that in Buffalo. 380 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: Without a dominating defense, you're not gonna win with thirteen points. 381 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 1: You gave up on their run in the second half. 382 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: They had eight rushing attempts first half, just five in 383 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: the second half. They gave up on that. They couldn't 384 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: get anything done, and I do think they carried over 385 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: to the entire Buffalo roster. All right, let's get to 386 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 1: some of your responses. The number one factor in the 387 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 1: Bill's victory over the Dolphins. What do you have? We'll 388 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 1: start with the phones eight three fifty toll free one 389 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty. Let's get 390 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: Let's start with Earl in Wellsville. Hello, Earl, go ahead, 391 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: you're on the air. Hey, guys, I gotta say the 392 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: offensive line really did their homework, because there was a 393 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: couple of quite a few times, but when they would 394 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: pick up the blitz, you know, there was like two 395 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 1: offensive guys taken on three blocks, and I think they 396 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: did their homework. Prey dog gone well to say, Josh 397 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,919 Speaker 1: some time to throw the football. Yeah, Josh never appeared 398 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: to be threatened at all by a pass rushing, did he. 399 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: I mean maybe maybe one or once or twice, but yeah, 400 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: he had a lot and there were a lot of 401 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: times when he stood back there and stood back there 402 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 1: and stood back there too. So yeah, I agree with you. 403 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: The offensive line was dominant against the Dolphins yesterday. What else, Earle? Now, 404 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: what do you think about that? Britain? They played yesterday 405 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: like they did at the beginning the season, like when 406 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: you all they were all hearty and they were ready 407 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 1: to go yesterday. Yeah, I liked it. I think it 408 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: was a game plan thing, no question about it. They 409 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 1: brought pressure because they thought they didn't think the Miami 410 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: Dolphins offensive line could hold up against it like the 411 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: Bills offensive line did yesterday. I think that was a 412 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 1: matchup they felt like they could win in that way. 413 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 1: And I think with seven sacks or what is it 414 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 1: seven sacks, I keep seven that says a lot about 415 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: what the Bills philosophy was, and but I think it 416 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: was the right way to go. It's a game plan thing. 417 00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:00,040 Speaker 1: It might not bring that many pass pressure packages, and 418 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: you know this week against Denver, right, I think that's 419 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: the way they play it. Look Frazier and McDermott are 420 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: not heavy blitz guys when it comes to their defensive philosophy. 421 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: A little bit more yesterday, not overwhelming, but a little 422 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: bit more yesterday. But they change up week to week. 423 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: They do it on offense too, They change things pretty 424 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: pretty much. It may be the exact same this week 425 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: against Denver. It may be just the opposite. Against Denver. 426 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: They may rush three all day. You don't know, but 427 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: I think they'll do it because they feel as it 428 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: gives them the best chance to win. Defensively. Thanks for 429 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: your call, will go to Steve and Orchard Park. Go ahead, Steve, guys, 430 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: how you doing good? I thought the number one thing 431 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:38,120 Speaker 1: yesterday was maybe maybe Brian Dable going up in the box. 432 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: How do you figure he called a pretty good game, 433 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 1: and I just like the way the player mixed in yesterday. Yeah. 434 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 1: I don't think play calling had been an issue really 435 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: this season, and I know I guess I'm in the 436 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 1: minority with that, but I don't know. I'd be interested 437 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: to hear from Brian and he does a news conference 438 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 1: day at four thirty about what he'd been why they 439 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: made that move, and what he thought he got out 440 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: of it. Is that a factor upstairs downstair? Anything you 441 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: have to ask us? It's his opinion, and maybe maybe 442 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 1: Josh had an opinion as well. What was your other point, Steve? Um? No, No, 443 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: I just wanted to say that, you know that I 444 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 1: thought they played their best overall game offense defense yesterday, 445 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 1: So that was that was encouraging. I just gotta one 446 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: question real quick for you, guys. Lamar Jackson, Um, do 447 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 1: you think his style is gonna be uh? He's going 448 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: to be able to do that over the course of 449 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: her career because kind of we haven't. Didn't we see 450 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: that with town Kaepernick before. I was just wondering because 451 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 1: he does a lot of running, and I just wonder 452 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: if that's gonna be he eventually catch up to him 453 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 1: as the years go on. Well, I think he's gonna 454 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,679 Speaker 1: play exactly the way he's playing for his entire career. 455 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: The question is, and you're alluding to a Steve is 456 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: how long is that career going to be able to last. 457 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: It's a hard game to run the football a lot 458 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 1: in the NFL. You know, Frank Gore's an anomaly being 459 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 1: able to do it for sixteen years. The running back spot, 460 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: you saw Cam Newton. Who Cam Newton, If you've ever 461 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: met him in person or talked with him, he's enormous. 462 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: He's like a Josh Allen guy. He's a huge, big, broad, 463 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 1: heavy guy who can throw the book football a ton. 464 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: You can even see now at the end at his 465 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 1: career stage. You know he's he's getting beat up and 466 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 1: he's not. He can't play as effectively as he wants 467 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 1: did because he has been injured. So Lamar Jackson, Lamar 468 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: Jackson's not Cam Newton and Cam Newton's not Lamar Jackson. 469 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 1: We'll have to see, but I do say this about 470 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: Steve Lamar Jackson is a unique and phenomenal talent. We'll 471 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: see if the punishment that the NFL dishes out to 472 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 1: its quarterbacks will allow him to have a long career, 473 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,400 Speaker 1: and I hope he does. The guy's great. I don't 474 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,360 Speaker 1: wish it against him, but that's the big question mark 475 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: that nobody has the answer to yet. Thanks for a call. 476 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: Let's go to uh Kevin Ian Rochester, Kevin, Welcome, you're 477 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: on the show with us, Hey, guys, thanks for taking 478 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: the call. Hey. To me, the most important part of 479 00:22:58,119 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: the victory, the thing that made the victory was the 480 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 1: way the defense played. I love the schemes they ran 481 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 1: up front. You guys alluded to it that they changed 482 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: up what they had been doing to comparently attack a 483 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins offensive line that just really couldn't handle what 484 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: they were going to bring. But the most encouraging thing 485 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: to me was our offense. I love the way the 486 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: offensive line blocked and gave Josh time. I loved Josh's 487 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: decision making, and I love the fact that he They 488 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,679 Speaker 1: talked earlier in the week about you know, playing not scared. 489 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 1: It looked like he played not scared. I just love 490 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 1: the way he played. It was really encouraging to me because, 491 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: like we've talked about before, Hey, this defense, they're amazing. 492 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 1: We can't rely on them on every single game. So 493 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: going forward into the schedule we've got, we're gonna need 494 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 1: Josh and the offense to do it. And I think 495 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: they did it really well yesterday. Yeah, it's a good point. 496 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: You know, that was kind of a theme of the 497 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: week right once Josh mentioned it wednesday late that coach 498 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: McDermott told them to play fearless, and you can see it. 499 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: And I do think part of it goes into the 500 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,120 Speaker 1: way the defense played. Josh, She's defense out there stoning 501 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Know you'd lose any fear you have, Like, whoa, 502 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: the defense got my back today. I can I go 503 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: for stuff, you can go for it. Yeah he did, 504 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: But you're right, U, he attacked him. He had he 505 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: had great He had great throws yesterday, some really good throws. 506 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: And I think this guy has We'll talk to him 507 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 1: at one thirty today. I think he has confidence in 508 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: his ability to make great throws, don't you. I really 509 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 1: do oh, I do too. Yeah, I agree, and you're 510 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: right and we knew it going in. Sean McDermot didn't 511 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: sit Josh Allen down and tell him to play fearless. 512 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: He sat the whole team down and told him play 513 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,160 Speaker 1: that way. And I think the coaching staff, I think 514 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: when you give a message like that as a coaching staff, 515 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: as a head coach, you tell your coordinators say listen, 516 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 1: don't you know, don't take your foot off the gas. 517 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 1: Give these guys something that lets him play fearless. Give 518 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: these guys some plays where they can say, oh my gosh, 519 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: we really are going for it, you know. Give the 520 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: players as a coordinator, give the players a message with 521 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 1: your play calling and with your latitude during the week, 522 00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 1: when the build up to the game, that you're gonna 523 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: give him a chance.

We only lost to Cleveland 590 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 1: because I got worn down for me and on the 591 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: field all day. Thank goodness, our offense gave them time 592 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 1: to breathe on Sunday. Well, defense can carry the team. 593 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: Welcome to the party, Larry, Right, I just woke up. Certainly, 594 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: they are a team built on defense, still the number 595 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: three defense in the NFL. They're getting better on offense, 596 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: not quite there yet. Bills average twenty one points per 597 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: game now after putting up thirty seven yesterday. That's that's okay. 598 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: Let's see it get up to the mid twenties. And 599 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: there's still plenty of time to do that. Seven games left, 600 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, six games left for the Bills. You got 601 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: the Let's think about the schedule for a second or see. 602 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: We haven't talked about him much this morning, but you 603 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: got Broncos coming here, three and seven. Broncos. Then you 604 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 1: got a four game stretch that is pretty interesting for 605 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 1: the Bills. I think after that, right, Broncos here Thanksgiving 606 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: in Dallas. The regardless of what you may think, the 607 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: Cowboys are not unbeatable at home on Thanksgiving Day. We'll 608 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: talk about that is that week approaches. Then you got 609 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: like a week and a half off, which is not bad, 610 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: and you come home to play Baltimore. You might need 611 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: that week and a half. Baltimore is very solid. That's 612 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 1: a game two of this stretch. Then you go to Pittsburgh. 613 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: Now the Steelers if you watch them last it was 614 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: at Thursday and night against Cleveland. They're not that good 615 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 1: and Mason Rudolph is not scaring anybody. But still it's 616 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 1: at Pittsburgh Field Scarrett game, yep, last Thursday night. And 617 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 1: then after Pittsburgh you go to New England and we 618 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: know the Bills troubles there. So that's a four game stretch. 619 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: And then you finish up, of course with the Jets. 620 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: And look, we've set all along ten or eleven or 621 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: eleven plus wins is the target for this team. They 622 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: still need to do some winning here down the stretch, 623 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: including the Sunday against Denver, right to get to ten 624 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: or eleven wins. That's right. Yeah, it's they got a 625 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:57,719 Speaker 1: lot of work to do and they and I think 626 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: they know it. I mean they there's trying to stay 627 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 1: humble and hungry. Uh, certainly, I don't see anybody beating 628 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: their chest over beating the Miami Dolphins on a year 629 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: like this that they're having. But nevertheless, you gotta stack 630 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: those wins up. And with the Denver Broncos coming in, 631 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: who just took it on the chin or a three? 632 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 1: And what's six team? I guess, let me just double 633 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: check that, but the Broncos have got three wins. Yeah, 634 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: they're three and seven, just the opposite of the Buffalo Bills, 635 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: so you gotta They jumped out to a twenty to 636 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 1: nothing lead on the Minnesota Vikings this last week on 637 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 1: the road, and the Vikings came back and nipped him 638 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: at the end. So it's uh, Joe Flacco's their quarterback. 639 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: Is he gonna plays? He planning or did he? Yes? Yeah, 640 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: that's right in for the Vikings, No, not for the Viking, 641 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: for the Denver Broncos, and there you go. You know 642 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 1: that's Brandon Allen and they're gonna Their defense is still 643 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: manned very well. Their head coach is a defensive guy, 644 00:30:56,240 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: just like Sean McDermott is Vic Fangio. We'll see. Um, 645 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: there's no gimmis in this league. You got to go 646 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: out and play, just like the Bills had to go 647 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: out and play against the Dolphins this last week. He 648 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 1: thought it was a game they should win, and they 649 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: came out and confirmed your opinion. So we'll see if 650 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: they can continue to do that against the Denver Broncos. 651 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: What do you think? Give us a call?

But with that said, the small elephant 659 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: in the room Singletary's fumbling, Yeah, yeah, it's yeah, it's concerned. 660 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: At the end of that one run, I know he 661 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: fumbled it and then John Brown jumped on it for 662 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: an extra couple of yard game, and then there was 663 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: there another one I can't remember, but you're right, the 664 00:31:57,880 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: Bills have I gotta tell you, the Bills have fumbled 665 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: a ton this year, Josh Allen most notably, and they've 666 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: gotten almost all of them back. Now that and let 667 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: me tell you something that is nothing but good fortune. 668 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 1: You know, guys are always everybody hustles after a loose ball. 669 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: But I agree with you. Turnovers cannot become a problem 670 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 1: for this team because that's not part of their ability 671 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: to overcome. I don't think that's in their margin of error. 672 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: They can't turn it over and win games. Fifteen fumbles 673 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: for the Bills, they've lost four of them so far 674 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: in the first ten games. They didn't turn it over yesterday, right, 675 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: and they've thrown and they got a turnover yesterday on 676 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 1: a fumble. Um Josh Allen is not thrown an interception 677 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: in five games. I think they've solved that problem. I think. 678 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:42,959 Speaker 1: I'm prepared to say that, which is not to say 679 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: it might not drop up again. But I think they've 680 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: solved the interception problem, to be sure, and that's job. 681 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: They haven't been losing games. They didn't lose the Cleveland 682 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: game because of turnovers, I don't think, right, so they 683 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: haven't lost one since but New England that was because 684 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: of turnovers. Yeah, it's been a while. It has been 685 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: a while. September on the tweet sheet the number one 686 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: factor and the Bills went over the Dolphins from Nick 687 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 1: Alan was great, but credit needs to be given to 688 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: day Ball too. I know it's a Dolphins, but I 689 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: thought he called a great game, good balance of run pass, 690 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 1: no head scratching play calls, and there was no weak 691 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: third quarter performance. I wonder if being in the booth 692 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: made a difference. I wonder that too. I don't know 693 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 1: if it'd be a dramatic difference. I mean, and as 694 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: I said, I don't know that the play calls were 695 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 1: the issue, and when the Bills lost two of three 696 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: prior to yesterday, I don't know that that would be 697 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: something I would put on the fact that the Brian 698 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: day Balls play calling was not up the part. I 699 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 1: don't believe it is, but I know there's that body 700 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 1: of opinion out there. The fact that he moved upstairs. 701 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: We'll see he will. He will meet the immediate at 702 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: four thirty this afternoon, and I'm sure at that time 703 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: he'll explain why he made the move and what he 704 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: saw differently up there. Yeah, and it will be interesting 705 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: to see if they do that going forward, and also 706 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 1: why they made the change. I don't know if we'll 707 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: ever get find out why as to why they made 708 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 1: the change. Going forward or whether it'll stand. Maybe maybe 709 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 1: that was a game plan thing as well this week. 710 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, but it's hard to think that being 711 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 1: on field level or at the booth would have a 712 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 1: difference in which call was played on which call was 713 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,800 Speaker 1: made on any given play. But we'll see, We'll see 714 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: what Brian Dable has to say. I'm I'm sure he's 715 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: not gonna tell us, but come on your favorite. Yeah, 716 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 1: he wouldn't even tell us where his favorite restaurant is 717 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 1: on the air, you know, so, I mean he's not 718 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 1: gonna tell us anything. But we have one more from 719 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: the tweet shot I wanted to listen to as you 720 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: get did you get the Nicks one? Uh? No? All right? 721 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,280 Speaker 1: Nick ass that's the Josh Allen that no one expected 722 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 1: coming out the pocket. Awareness was absolutely on point. What 723 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: needs to happen now is build off this all. Too 724 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: often it's felt like one step forward followed by a 725 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,879 Speaker 1: stagnant or a degree to a degree a step back. 726 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: I think that's gonna Nicks, that's probably right. He has 727 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,399 Speaker 1: shown improvement and then other times he's taken a step back. 728 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna continue to see that, though I 729 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 1: don't think Josh Allen's gonna come out and throw for 730 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 1: three touchdowns and a run for one every week. Um. 731 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 1: And I don't think he's thrown his last interception of 732 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: his career. I don't think he's had his last fumble. 733 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:05,800 Speaker 1: I mean, there's gonna be times when he takes a 734 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,359 Speaker 1: step back. The question is can they overcome it? Can 735 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 1: he play well enough around those to overcome it. To 736 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 1: this point, he's cut those down and the team has 737 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: played better than one games because of it. And you know, 738 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: this defense and the way the team is constructed right now, 739 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: Josh Ellen hasn't had to have too many games like 740 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: he did yesterday. I think when we start seeing him 741 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: have games like he did yesterday against teams like Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Cleveland, 742 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: New England, that's when you'll know he's really turned it 743 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 1: turned the corner. He's having really good games against some 744 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: teams that are struggling. I want to see him have 745 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: it against better teams. And I think that's when the experience. 746 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 1: That's where experience and reps and seeing it again and 747 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: again and again are gonna pay dividing growth. Yeah, but 748 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 1: let me say this, and we were talking this way, 749 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 1: I had a good weekend conversation with a high ranking 750 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 1: Builds football official who we were talking about the constant 751 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 1: evaluation of Josh and the fact that there and I 752 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: think Nick has just did it and I understand it. 753 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: But we don't need a weekly referendum on Josh Allen. 754 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: How's he doing today? Is he the guys he's gonna 755 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: be the franchise quarterback that they make the right pick. 756 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: You don't need to do that every week. You know, 757 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,959 Speaker 1: he took a step forward yesterday, he took a little 758 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:16,800 Speaker 1: bit of a step back at Cleveland a week before. 759 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: At the end of the year, I think then you 760 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: can look and see how does Josh his twenty nineteen 761 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 1: compared to his twenty eighteen, and then make a decision 762 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: on what you have and how far you want to 763 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: go with this guy. I think on a week to 764 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 1: week basis, like you said, he'll, damn he'll, I'd almost 765 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,399 Speaker 1: bet he would have at least one more interception this year. 766 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,320 Speaker 1: He may fumble it again this year, but that doesn't 767 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,799 Speaker 1: mean all bets are off. We know who Josh Ellen 768 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 1: is yet, No, you can't do it week to week. 769 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: You know, he's the starting quarterback this year, he's likely 770 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,800 Speaker 1: to be the starting quarterback next year. I think there's 771 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: adequate evidence so far ten games in that this guy 772 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 1: has what it takes to be a quarterback in the NFL. 773 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,760 Speaker 1: But you don't need to make that decision every Monday 774 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: after the Sunday game. Do you agree? Disagree? Oh? Yeah, 775 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,800 Speaker 1: I get you. I mean, listen, whether he stinks it 776 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 1: up or not, he's going a quarterback this team next 777 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: week and the week after. I mean, he's not going anywhere. 778 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:05,759 Speaker 1: And I think that this point, and I'm with you, Murph. 779 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: You kind of take this whole season now. The coaches 780 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 1: will do this a little bit differently about than we are, 781 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:14,800 Speaker 1: more detailed than we're able to sit in here, but 782 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,399 Speaker 1: they'll evaluate him as he goes forward, and they'll know, Okay, listen, 783 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 1: here's some things he doesn't really see really well, or 784 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,839 Speaker 1: here's some things he struggles with, or here's some things, 785 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 1: and Josh will tell him he's I don't like doing that, 786 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: I don't like running this kind of play because I 787 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 1: have trouble seeing this read or doing that there. And 788 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 1: every quarterback has that, every quarterback does. The question is 789 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 1: can you get better and can you coach some things up. 790 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,359 Speaker 1: And that's why all these coaches everywhere look for guys 791 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 1: with raw talent like Josh has, because a lot of 792 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 1: this stuff, almost all of it, you can coach up. 793 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 1: He can get better at reading defenses, he can get 794 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: better at pre snap recognition, he can get better at 795 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 1: cutting out bad bad interceptions and fumbling up. He can. 796 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: You can coach all that other stuff, mental stuff up. 797 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: If you got the raw materials and you start coaching 798 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,359 Speaker 1: him up, and he starts seeing stuff better and making 799 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 1: better reads, then all of a sudden, this guy with 800 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 1: the raw materials is making throws nobody else can make 801 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,280 Speaker 1: and making plays nobody else can make. Heym One aspect 802 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 1: of yesterday's game that Bears mentioned Steve Is Stephen Housket 803 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: began the game with a fifty one yard field goal 804 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 1: right out of the box, followed that up with a 805 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 1: thirty four yarder, and he was pretty solid three for 806 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 1: three in his field goal tries yesterday. Boy I watched 807 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: him a warm up extensively yesterday, and the conditions were perfect. 808 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: You know, it's natural grass at Miami. There was no 809 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: win to speak of, but he spent a lot of 810 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 1: time in pregame warmups and I watched him hit fifty 811 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 1: one yard ers pregame. I watched him you know, they 812 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: usually moved back five yards of crack. I watched him 813 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,879 Speaker 1: missed from fifty six yards out. That's a difficult kick, 814 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: but he did enough to get himself ready to play. 815 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 1: He was being watched pretty extensively by the usual crew, 816 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: including this time head coach On McDermot, who seemed to 817 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 1: me to spend a little extra time keeping an eye 818 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: on House his pregame warm up. They wanted to make 819 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 1: sure he was ready. He was ready in a good 820 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: bounce back day for him. Yes, to fifty one yard 821 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,239 Speaker 1: to get the bills going early on. I mean, that's 822 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 1: a great way to finish your opening drive fifty one 823 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: yards out and then a couple of you know, shorter 824 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 1: kicks that worked as well. Good for him. Yeah, I 825 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 1: think of the difference in that game if he didn't 826 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 1: hit any of those, well, right, you gotta have him, Yeah, 827 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 1: you gotta have him on point and uh and he was. 828 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 1: He was. And that's one thing as well that I 829 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 1: you kind of take for granted. I'm nobody can take 830 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: anything were granted, but you take for granted that a 831 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 1: veteran guy like Stephen Haushka was on it all week 832 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,360 Speaker 1: thinking about it, getting back in the saddle and making kicks. 833 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: You can bet he had a conversation with Borkez about 834 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 1: the holes, about the operation, about what he was gonna do, 835 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 1: about the differences they saw some of the things everything, 836 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 1: and I bet he probably without question had a long 837 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 1: conversation during the week about with Borkez and read Ferguson guessing, guys, 838 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 1: we get to Miami, We're gonna kick fifty bowls in 839 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 1: the preseason, in the pregame, so get ready to then 840 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 1: the pregame, We're gonna be out there for a long time. 841 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: I want to get some reps in on that field. 842 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:06,879 Speaker 1: And they did. Uh. That's part of what goes into 843 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: becoming a wily veterans. This stuff you do that gets 844 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 1: you back on track. When you've hit a stumbling block 845 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: or hit a bad patch in the season, you got 846 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: to get back on it and work on it. And 847 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: he did. You know else had a good game, Cory, 848 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 1: But Harke has forty three point six yards net, which 849 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: is outstanding. Anything over forty is pretty good. His first 850 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 1: punt in the second quarter fifty one yards. Uh. For 851 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: Harke has has come around, He's had a couple of 852 00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:33,359 Speaker 1: good games in a row. I gotta you know, net 853 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 1: forty three yards point six back in the dark ages 854 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 1: when when I was running around, nobody, and I mean nobody, 855 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: it had never been done that somebody would net above 856 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 1: forty yards. Now that's the standard. Yeah, everybody kind of 857 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:49,839 Speaker 1: does that. That's a good you know, you're a good 858 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 1: punter if you can end people do that. That net 859 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:55,880 Speaker 1: punt over forty yards in a game like this, a 860 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:59,359 Speaker 1: forty three yard net, that's enormous, No, absolutely enormous. Zero 861 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,800 Speaker 1: punt return, and that's if they don't return the punt. 862 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 1: What are the chances of you given up a punt 863 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,080 Speaker 1: return for a touchdown? Zero? Yeah, that's the big thing, 864 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: and that's when I was playing, that was the big thought. 865 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:12,839 Speaker 1: You keep them out of their position that they can't 866 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:14,719 Speaker 1: hit a big plan. They don't even have the opportunity 867 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: for a flukey thing like the kickoff returned to happen 868 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 1: against you. You know all of that. So it's good 869 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: good on orches, good on, Good on Stephen Haushka for 870 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 1: buttoning it up this week and helping the team win. 871 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 1: By seventeen, We want to talk about the kickoff return 872 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,879 Speaker 1: next segment. We got to talk about it eventually. Yeah, 873 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: we can do it next time where we can save 874 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 1: it and let's do it. We'll talk about that. We'll 875 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 1: take more of your calls. What do you think the 876 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: Bills win by seventeen in Miami? Number one factor in 877 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 1: your mind? Give us a call, sending a tweet. We're 878 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 1: coming back with more.

Welcome back One Bills Live. John Murphy, 881 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 1: Steep Tansker here until three. Eric, what's going to join 882 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 1: us at the top of the hour coming up? Chris 883 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 1: Brown's gonna join us at two and oh, by the way, 884 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 1: Josh Allen at one thirty. Or we have one of 885 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,799 Speaker 1: the NFL's all time premier special teams special teamers as 886 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 1: co hosts here today, so we're gonna put them to work. 887 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 1: Bills give up a one hundred and one yard kick 888 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:26,839 Speaker 1: return for a touchdown yesterday in the second quarter, right, yeah, right, 889 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,360 Speaker 1: second quarter, end of the second quarters, the Bills in 890 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 1: grist Yeah. The Bills have just scored to go up 891 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: twenty three to twenty three to seven to seven, yeah, 892 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 1: and is that righter twenty seven to seven, twenty seven, 893 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 1: tenty three seven. So they kick off Jachim Grant brings 894 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 1: it out of the end zone right yeah, one one 895 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,399 Speaker 1: or two yards deep. And here's the thing you gotta 896 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 1: know too, and then this is a this is almost 897 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 1: you can almost etch this into Granted. The best kickoff 898 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 1: return teams in the NFL are the ones that have 899 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:59,319 Speaker 1: the worst teams because they get scored on a lot. 900 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: The only play in football you do not, ever, not 901 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 1: a single time ever, get to practice it at full speed. 902 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 1: It's always walk through. So the guys who get a 903 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 1: lot of practice on it are obviously better. Grant does 904 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 1: a really good job from the very beginning of this play. 905 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 1: He catches it outside the numbers about two thirds of 906 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: the way between the sideline of the numbers, and eats heart, 907 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: pushes hard up the field straight ahead ten yards, and 908 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 1: then snaps it to his right hard across the field 909 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 1: all the way to the far hash. And then when 910 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 1: he turns it up inside, that had that burst up 911 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: the field early in the return sets up the blocks. 912 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 1: Because the return, the Miami guys expect him to come 913 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:44,120 Speaker 1: out that way, so they're letting the Bills players converge 914 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 1: on Grant. When he pushes it up the field ten yards, 915 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 1: they get in position. When he snaps off and comes 916 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 1: a heart across the field, that's when you need somebody 917 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:55,919 Speaker 1: either bolting down the field wide to get down deep 918 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 1: to keep him from getting to the far hash to 919 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 1: turn it up the field. The Bills couldn't get anybody 920 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 1: there when he turns, puts his foot in the ground 921 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:05,560 Speaker 1: and cuts it back up inside. The last guy to 922 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:07,719 Speaker 1: really have a chance to get him at the point 923 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 1: of attack was Kevin Johnson, who was the safety on 924 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: that play. He had dropped off and he's kind of 925 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 1: a safety valve. Just as he started to break down 926 00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: and slide over to force Grant to once again stop 927 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: and kind of trying to avoid him, he gets blocked 928 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 1: by a guy from the far side coming across who 929 00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 1: had made his and it was designed number forty nine 930 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 1: of the Dolphins comes all the way across and literally 931 00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:34,440 Speaker 1: he it's a block in the back tech, but he 932 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,640 Speaker 1: doesn't he doesn't block him. He just kind of stands 933 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 1: there and snuggles up to the guy to Kevin Johnson, 934 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 1: So the officials won't really call that. And when he 935 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: does that Kevin Johnson, who would have been in a 936 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:47,400 Speaker 1: position and it would have been it would have been 937 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: a nice return, but it had been inside the twenty 938 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 1: five or thirty. Then it turns into the big play 939 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:56,320 Speaker 1: and I was reading Twitter and Houshka got roasted for 940 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 1: not making this out of listen. By the time it 941 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 1: gets to Houshka, there's so much sp Now, Houshka could 942 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:06,320 Speaker 1: have herded the returner to the sideline, but there was 943 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 1: so much space there. He would have gotten outrun by 944 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 1: the angle. He couldn't have outrun the angle. Grant would 945 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 1: have outrun him, and it had been what it ended up. 946 00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 1: What he did was probably the right thing. Forced Grant 947 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 1: to cut back inside right because he has help. That's 948 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 1: where all his helpers are, all the rest of his 949 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,319 Speaker 1: teammates are for Houshka. But he caused him to turn 950 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 1: inside because there was no space. Grant didn't have to 951 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 1: slow his momentum down and it didn't help with the angle. 952 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 1: The one thing you could say about Houshka, maybe, and 953 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 1: you know this is an age in which we live, 954 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: he hit that ball two or three yards deep. He 955 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 1: was probably a little surprised they brought it out, and 956 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 1: he might have been a little bit late getting down there. 957 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 1: But even so, he's following the kick and you can 958 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:46,920 Speaker 1: see on the film they run it all the way 959 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:48,920 Speaker 1: to other side of the field. He you know, it's 960 00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 1: hard for him to get over there in time, so 961 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 1: he was late into the play and also late over there. 962 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,359 Speaker 1: He finally got over there, but he was trailing too far. 963 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,359 Speaker 1: We were wondering on the broadcast yesterday, myself and Eric 964 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:02,880 Speaker 1: Woodweather because there were a couple of kick returns yesterday 965 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:05,400 Speaker 1: and including another long one by Grant. But I think 966 00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:07,239 Speaker 1: the Bills went into the game thinking, let's try to 967 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 1: pin them deep, let's not boom it out of the 968 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:10,960 Speaker 1: back of the end zone. Let's get some coverage down 969 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:14,359 Speaker 1: there and force their drives to start within the twenty five. Now, 970 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 1: that was into the end zone a yard anyway, and 971 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,600 Speaker 1: he brought it out. But they adjusted after that. They 972 00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:20,360 Speaker 1: hit a lot of kicks into the end zone after that. 973 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. I get it, But like 974 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 1: I said, I don't I'm a little old school. I 975 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,920 Speaker 1: don't have because a lot of special teams coaches will 976 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 1: do that, like the surprise on side they got yesterday 977 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:34,440 Speaker 1: with the Dolphins, because it's it's really hard to make 978 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 1: a difference on teams these days, because they've been de 979 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,839 Speaker 1: emphasizing with the rule changes, it's hard to bust one 980 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,280 Speaker 1: loose like the Dolphins did yesterday, Like surprise on sides. Okay, 981 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,239 Speaker 1: that those are you know, higher percentage of getting because 982 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 1: you do catch them off guard. But you do catch 983 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:52,719 Speaker 1: special teams coordinators once in a while convincing their head 984 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 1: coach to roll the dice a little bit with them. 985 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 1: The Bills have had a punt block this year in 986 00:46:57,120 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 1: New England that here in Buffalo against New England that 987 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 1: was a difference in the game. But I think on 988 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,359 Speaker 1: this one, I don't know. Well, he get a team 989 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 1: like Miami who's not playing well and they've given up 990 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 1: a lot of touchdowns. They run through their kickoff coverage 991 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,799 Speaker 1: team a lot or the kickoff return team a lot, 992 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:19,640 Speaker 1: So I would I would shy away from that, you know, 993 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 1: I would shy away from that. Jacim Grant hadn't done 994 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:25,800 Speaker 1: it before. He had a kickoff return for a touchdown 995 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:27,719 Speaker 1: last year one under two yards, and a couple of 996 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,360 Speaker 1: punts a seventy one yard punt return for a touchdown 997 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 1: last year in the seventy four yard or back in 998 00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:34,239 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, and they got him. He got the Bills 999 00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 1: yesterday on that one. All right, we're taking a breakcare 1000 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 1: We're coming back.

Former Bill center Eric 1049 00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:10,840 Speaker 1: Wood joined us on the line. Right now, Good afternoon, Eric, 1050 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:12,880 Speaker 1: It made at home, okay that you were all over 1051 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:16,439 Speaker 1: the place this past weekend, right I was. I left 1052 00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:20,160 Speaker 1: Raleigh at what six thirty flights? I got up at 1053 00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 1: four forty five and Raleigh yesterday morning and got back 1054 00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:25,240 Speaker 1: to Louisville about midnight and got to my house about 1055 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:27,719 Speaker 1: twelve thirty. So it was a long day, a long day, 1056 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: long weekend for you. I feeling you good, You're ready 1057 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:32,799 Speaker 1: to go all good. Hey, we've been talking a lot 1058 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 1: about this game for the first hour of the show, 1059 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:35,719 Speaker 1: and I know you have a lot to weigh in 1060 00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 1: here as well. Eric. It was I mean, the special 1061 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:41,440 Speaker 1: teams issues were an issue, which may prevent us from 1062 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,320 Speaker 1: saying it was a complete team victory. But boy, offense 1063 00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 1: and defense looked as good as they have really all season, 1064 00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:49,759 Speaker 1: I thought yesterday well, and early on in the game 1065 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 1: the special teams looked great too. The Dolphins after two 1066 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 1: kickoff start drives at their ten or inside, so that 1067 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 1: those were huge plays early for special teams. But then 1068 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 1: and obviously with the kick return and the surprise onside 1069 00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:07,919 Speaker 1: kick and that surprise outside kick, I wish I would 1070 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:12,320 Speaker 1: have asked Sean McDermott about it in this pregame interview 1071 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:14,279 Speaker 1: I did with him. I did it before the first one, 1072 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 1: knowing Danny Crossman was facing off against his former team 1073 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: he coaching Buffalo, I believe six years, so he was 1074 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,359 Speaker 1: there a long time, three different against his former team, 1075 00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 1: familiar with the personnel, and he took a shot and 1076 00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:29,239 Speaker 1: paid off. But as far as the game goes yesterday, offensively, 1077 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:31,960 Speaker 1: I thought the Bills executed extremely well. I loved the 1078 00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:36,160 Speaker 1: game plan. John Brown with another huge days over one 1079 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,320 Speaker 1: hundred yards, Josh Allen with over three hundred total yards, 1080 00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:42,359 Speaker 1: not over three hundred yards passing. He gets that first 1081 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,440 Speaker 1: pass of the year traveling over twenty yards through the air, 1082 00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 1: so he gets that monkey off his back. But I 1083 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:51,360 Speaker 1: just thought overall, the message going into the week was 1084 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:54,439 Speaker 1: play fearless, and that's what Sean McDermot kept talking about. 1085 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,879 Speaker 1: And I thought a couple of throws Josh Allen made, 1086 00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,239 Speaker 1: especially the one where his play actually he's rolling out 1087 00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:01,719 Speaker 1: to his right throws it back across his body into 1088 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:04,200 Speaker 1: the end zone to John Brown, that's you gotta be 1089 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 1: a little fearless to do that. That ball gets tipped too. 1090 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:08,120 Speaker 1: I mean that's a risky throw, but it pays off 1091 00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:11,640 Speaker 1: for seven points. That's playing fearless. And I thought defensively 1092 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:15,040 Speaker 1: the message also hit them as well, play fearless. They 1093 00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 1: called a fearless game plan too. Matt Milano and Tremaine 1094 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 1: Edmonds both set career highs for most times rushing in 1095 00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:23,960 Speaker 1: a game in the same game. So they brought both 1096 00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:29,440 Speaker 1: linebackers a number of times. On I think it was 1097 00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 1: three third downs, they put seven guys at the line 1098 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:35,440 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, lined everybody up there twice they all out 1099 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,880 Speaker 1: blitzed Fits once they bailed on it, so they were 1100 00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 1: able to apply a ton of pressure. You see on 1101 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:44,040 Speaker 1: that play right there at Oliver comes Scott free because 1102 00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:46,919 Speaker 1: they bring both lineaper linebackers up in the a gap 1103 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 1: Fits is under center and they don't squeeze one of 1104 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:52,239 Speaker 1: the guards down while the running back can't get to 1105 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:56,239 Speaker 1: his responsibility in time and Fits just gets crushed. So 1106 00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:59,360 Speaker 1: that's that was just an excellent game by the Bills defense. 1107 00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,040 Speaker 1: They completely dominate them. They hold them to twenty three 1108 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 1: yards rushing, and that was the big deal coming into 1109 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:07,760 Speaker 1: this week. And the Dolphins kind of started this trend 1110 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 1: this year, you know, going straight at the Bills in 1111 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,160 Speaker 1: the run game, and would they be able to stop 1112 00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:16,560 Speaker 1: them this time around? And I understand the personnel is 1113 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:18,840 Speaker 1: a little different at running back this time around, but 1114 00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:21,640 Speaker 1: the Bills defense did an excellent job. They end up 1115 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:25,280 Speaker 1: giving up one hundred and thirty five yards to DeVante Parker. 1116 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 1: But when you have a three score lead for a 1117 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 1: majority of the second half, you're simply playing ben but 1118 00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: don't break because you know they don't have enough possessions 1119 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:34,399 Speaker 1: in the game to beat you. One of the things 1120 00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about it. Certainly you're right 1121 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 1: that offense and defense had that attitude of playing a 1122 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 1: little bit more fearless, like the message was. Did you 1123 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 1: think the coaching staff with the play calls, both offensively 1124 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:46,879 Speaker 1: and defensively the game plan. There's been some talk about 1125 00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:51,200 Speaker 1: day Ball going upstairs to call the plays from the 1126 00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:53,400 Speaker 1: booth up there. Do you think the coaching staff got 1127 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:58,040 Speaker 1: that message as well? I do. And defensively, he saw 1128 00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,160 Speaker 1: the most pressure I've ever seen in one game out 1129 00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:03,400 Speaker 1: of a Sean McDermott leslie Fressure coach defense. And I 1130 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:06,759 Speaker 1: think defensively, that's something they should stick with. Keep the 1131 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:09,480 Speaker 1: offense on their heels, make them game plan for a 1132 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 1: lot more. And the Bills are so sound in their 1133 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:14,320 Speaker 1: scheme and that's why they're third in the league in defense. 1134 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:17,600 Speaker 1: But when you show the consistent looks over and over, 1135 00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:21,280 Speaker 1: it becomes easier to game plan. Now, teams still aren't 1136 00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:24,800 Speaker 1: scoring many points. You know, they lose last week against Cleveland, 1137 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,400 Speaker 1: they only give up nineteen points that you know, that's 1138 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:29,680 Speaker 1: a winning effort in this league a lot of times so, 1139 00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:33,920 Speaker 1: and they actually scored two points as well forcing the safety. 1140 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 1: But you know, the Bills coaching staff, I believe got 1141 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:39,439 Speaker 1: the message of play fearless, call a fearless game plan 1142 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:41,839 Speaker 1: as well because of the amount of pressures they brought. 1143 00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 1: And then you know, yesterday Brian dave Ball was up 1144 00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:47,000 Speaker 1: in the booth and I mentioned this during the broadcast. 1145 00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:49,000 Speaker 1: When he's up in the booth and they line up 1146 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 1: in the no huddle, that keeps Brian dave all the 1147 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:54,880 Speaker 1: full all twenty two view of the field and he 1148 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:59,400 Speaker 1: can essentially he has twenty seconds to get in Josh's headsets. 1149 00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:02,040 Speaker 1: So you see Sean McVeigh do this a lot with 1150 00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:05,200 Speaker 1: Jared Goff, especially early in his career, was helping him 1151 00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 1: with the checks in his headset. You know, that was 1152 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:11,200 Speaker 1: a conversation that they had publicly. Well, I would assume 1153 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:14,000 Speaker 1: Brian dave Ball was doing some of the similar stuff 1154 00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:17,520 Speaker 1: to Josh Allen and maybe that covered two whole shot 1155 00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:20,200 Speaker 1: that they checked two to John Brown. Maybe that's Brian 1156 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 1: day Ball helping out Josh Allen up in the box 1157 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 1: and says, hey, cover two. Hey, it's covered two. Josh 1158 00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:28,000 Speaker 1: gets to the check you'd already told John Brown on 1159 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 1: the sideline. We heard that from a postgame comment from 1160 00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 1: John Brown that if they got covered two again, he 1161 00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 1: was guilt going to the whole shot to John Brown. 1162 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:40,880 Speaker 1: And that was the first twenty yard plus in the 1163 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:42,920 Speaker 1: air completion for Josh Allen on the year. And what 1164 00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 1: a strike that was. Yeah, it might have been that. 1165 00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:48,160 Speaker 1: It might have been the thanks to the twenty plus 1166 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 1: yard and throw in the air. The first one of 1167 00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:52,080 Speaker 1: the season has to do with specifically with day Ball 1168 00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:54,440 Speaker 1: being upstairs, that would be something I doubt that we'll 1169 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:58,040 Speaker 1: get Brian day Ball to admit to that, but still, nevertheless, 1170 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:01,239 Speaker 1: it's probably a change the probably stick with given the 1171 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:05,879 Speaker 1: success they had offensively. Yeah, definitely, I would imagine we're 1172 00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:08,919 Speaker 1: going to see more up tempo the rest of the years. 1173 00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:11,399 Speaker 1: When the Bills offense has been at its best this year, 1174 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:15,840 Speaker 1: it's been in two minute situations and in the fourth quarter. Well, 1175 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:18,720 Speaker 1: in those situations, a lot of times there are no huddle. 1176 00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 1: Josh Allen likes getting to the line early. He likes 1177 00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:23,680 Speaker 1: to be able to analyze the defense get them in 1178 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:27,080 Speaker 1: an advantageous play. Who wouldn't Well, I think the best 1179 00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:29,759 Speaker 1: offense is when you can consistently mix that up. The 1180 00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 1: Bills have shown this year. You know, obviously they can 1181 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,200 Speaker 1: go out of the huddle. Last game, they're really successful 1182 00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:38,200 Speaker 1: in the up tempo. Well, now you get teams similar 1183 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:41,719 Speaker 1: to the Bills blitzing Moore last week. Now you get teams. Okay, 1184 00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:44,840 Speaker 1: now we have to prepare for this no huddle offense. Also, 1185 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:46,640 Speaker 1: they can get in the huddle and they can bring 1186 00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 1: in twenty two personnel with a fullback and two big 1187 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:51,279 Speaker 1: old tight ends. You know, the Bills can attack you 1188 00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:53,480 Speaker 1: in so many different ways. They become really tough to 1189 00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 1: prepare for. Right in the line with Eric quid Color 1190 00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:58,680 Speaker 1: analysts on the Bills Radio Network, Former Bills center Josh 1191 00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,759 Speaker 1: Allen clearly had good day and you have said you 1192 00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,359 Speaker 1: said it yesterday. You've talked about how you saw maybe 1193 00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:07,680 Speaker 1: some improvement in the way he sees the field, recognizes 1194 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 1: what he's seen from opposing defenses. What did you see there, Eric? 1195 00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:14,160 Speaker 1: You know yesterday, like he does a lot of times 1196 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:17,080 Speaker 1: when it's man to man, he goes to John Brown 1197 00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:19,720 Speaker 1: a good amount. He also attacked Cole Beasley in the 1198 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 1: slot a couple of times, or one act Cole Beasley 1199 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 1: in the slot a couple of times, attacking match mismatches 1200 00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 1: that he likes. And you know, I just think Josh 1201 00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 1: Allen this year has progressed in a number of ways, 1202 00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:34,040 Speaker 1: and sometimes it doesn't show up in the stat line 1203 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:35,880 Speaker 1: as a three hundred yard game. You know, I think 1204 00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 1: that's that's not something that we need to just uh 1205 00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:42,000 Speaker 1: fixate on. Is this three hundred yard game? You know, 1206 00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 1: I was reading Twitter after the game and people are saying, well, 1207 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:48,280 Speaker 1: shoot fits through for over three hundred why can't Josh? Well, 1208 00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:50,400 Speaker 1: you know what, I'll take a thirty seven to twenty 1209 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:53,120 Speaker 1: victory in a two hundred and fifty yard performance through 1210 00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:55,280 Speaker 1: the air and fifty something on the ground all day 1211 00:57:55,320 --> 00:58:00,600 Speaker 1: with zero turnovers. You know, I just think yesterday probably 1212 00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:04,400 Speaker 1: his best job, maybe of his entire career, of making 1213 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 1: some risky throws. And I say risky where you know, 1214 00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:09,440 Speaker 1: I mentioned the one throwback across his body in the 1215 00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 1: red zone earlier, and then he takes that whole shot, Well, 1216 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:15,560 Speaker 1: the whole shot that John Brown. There was no underneath 1217 00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:18,400 Speaker 1: receiver and as Steve knows a lot of times, to 1218 00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:21,120 Speaker 1: get that whole shot, you need a slot receiver out 1219 00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:23,400 Speaker 1: there to be able to hit that hole because that 1220 00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:26,760 Speaker 1: holds the corner. Well, Josh just ripped it and threw 1221 00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:29,720 Speaker 1: it over the top of his head. Not a not 1222 00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:33,000 Speaker 1: a dumb pass by any means. You know, he knew 1223 00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:37,160 Speaker 1: he could do it, but it's still a fearless throw 1224 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:41,640 Speaker 1: to mimic Sean mcdermot's Message of the Week last week. Yeah, 1225 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:44,320 Speaker 1: and I was gonna ask you as well, what do 1226 00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 1: you make Stephen Haushka bounced back after a tough stretch 1227 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:50,439 Speaker 1: of games where he was struggling to hit hit kicks. 1228 00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:52,320 Speaker 1: He hit a fifty one yard to start the game, 1229 00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:54,240 Speaker 1: and I think, if you're like any other if he's 1230 00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:56,080 Speaker 1: like any other player, and I think he is, that 1231 00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 1: fifty one yard or just start the game, probably set 1232 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:01,240 Speaker 1: the Bills up with for a lot of success and 1233 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:04,800 Speaker 1: probably did a lot to ease his whatever tension he 1234 00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:07,120 Speaker 1: carried into that game. That first kick, a kick of 1235 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 1: that magnitude off a natural surface is always a coin flip. 1236 00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:13,280 Speaker 1: But to hit it like he did, man, that I 1237 00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:16,760 Speaker 1: think that set him up for a successful day, absolutely, 1238 00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:19,800 Speaker 1: And you know how it is when you got it, 1239 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:22,600 Speaker 1: when you got things working against you, Sometimes just getting 1240 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:24,720 Speaker 1: that monkey out your back gets your confidence back. I 1241 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 1: mean in twenty seventeen, I know, I know, with kickers, 1242 00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 1: especially it's year to year and they could hit a 1243 00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:31,080 Speaker 1: bad streak and you never know what's going to happen 1244 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:33,240 Speaker 1: with them. But in twenty seventeen, when I was with Stephen, 1245 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:36,240 Speaker 1: he set the franchise record for most consecutive fifty yard 1246 00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:39,840 Speaker 1: plus field goals made. And so to get to this 1247 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:42,640 Speaker 1: point where guys are ready to get rid of him 1248 00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 1: after you know, a disappointing Cleveland performance, and look, Stephen 1249 00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:49,600 Speaker 1: was disappointed himself. He was warming up like crazy yesterday 1250 00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,439 Speaker 1: making sure no matter what, he was going to write 1251 00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:55,440 Speaker 1: that wrong. Me and John and Salary having conversations all 1252 00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:58,480 Speaker 1: through the pregame about how many kicks Stephen was getting 1253 00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:00,680 Speaker 1: up out there because he was going to make sure 1254 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:05,640 Speaker 1: that he got himself back going in the right direction. 1255 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:07,680 Speaker 1: And you're right, absolutely right, as soon as you hit 1256 01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 1: that fifty one yard or hopefully for the rest of 1257 01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 1: the year, he gets his confidence back. But well, one 1258 01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 1: thing you always have to consider whenever you're critiquing a 1259 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:19,240 Speaker 1: Bill's kicker and you're looking at his percentage, and Steve, 1260 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:22,040 Speaker 1: you you dealt with specialist in Buffalo, you know a 1261 01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 1: lot longer than I have. It's probably the toughest place 1262 01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:30,000 Speaker 1: to kick in the league and is mental as all 1263 01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:33,440 Speaker 1: these kickers are. And I say that it kind of 1264 01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 1: as a jab towards them and kind of as a compliment, 1265 01:00:35,760 --> 01:00:38,600 Speaker 1: because when your whole job, in your livelihood can come 1266 01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 1: down to one play a game, you know, it's a 1267 01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:43,760 Speaker 1: tough position to be in in any line of work. 1268 01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:47,440 Speaker 1: But they're so mental that you have to have the 1269 01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:49,600 Speaker 1: right mentality. You have to have the right guy to 1270 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:53,720 Speaker 1: kick in Buffalo. And and that's why they extended Stephen 1271 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:56,920 Speaker 1: Houshka before this season, was because they feel like they 1272 01:00:57,000 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 1: got a guy that can kick in the elements and Buffalo. Yeah, 1273 01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:02,120 Speaker 1: it's interesting too that when this game started out, the 1274 01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:05,440 Speaker 1: Bill's defense really squashed the running game of Miami. They 1275 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:08,520 Speaker 1: whether they thought back a month ago to that Miami 1276 01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:10,480 Speaker 1: blamed Miami for all these teams trying to run it 1277 01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 1: and having some success running or whatever, but it certainly 1278 01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 1: looked like that at chip on their shoulder for Miami's 1279 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:17,000 Speaker 1: running game. But one of the things I want to 1280 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:20,040 Speaker 1: ask you about is one of them. We've always talked 1281 01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:23,720 Speaker 1: about their defensive rotation. Yesterday they rotated Levi Wallace and 1282 01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 1: Kevin Johnson a little bit. They both kind of split 1283 01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:30,960 Speaker 1: fifty two percent. Whatever is fifty fifty split for those 1284 01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:34,840 Speaker 1: two guys at corner. What's that tell you about going forward? 1285 01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 1: Where they have? You know, they must have guys they 1286 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:40,240 Speaker 1: have some faith in that. A pretty good day yesterday, Yeah, definitely. 1287 01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:42,800 Speaker 1: And Kevin Johnson's an experienced corner in this league, a 1288 01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:45,360 Speaker 1: former first round pick. He's long, he's athletic. Give him 1289 01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 1: a shot, see what he can do. Le By Walls 1290 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:49,840 Speaker 1: started off the year extremely well, and he's he's been 1291 01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:52,960 Speaker 1: struggling a little bit late. That's that's documented. There's quarterback 1292 01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 1: rating stats and completion stats against them that proved. You know, 1293 01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:58,560 Speaker 1: the last time they were in Orchard Park, fits targeted 1294 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:01,160 Speaker 1: lee By Walls a trump endous amount. Now this time, 1295 01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:03,520 Speaker 1: luckily he didn't have to deal with Preston Williams, the 1296 01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:07,880 Speaker 1: six five two and twenty five pound receiver from Miami. 1297 01:02:07,960 --> 01:02:09,960 Speaker 1: He's out for the year with the ACL But you know, 1298 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:12,680 Speaker 1: yesterday you saw him go to Alan Hearn's a good 1299 01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:14,920 Speaker 1: amount when he was matched up against lee By Wallace. 1300 01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:17,240 Speaker 1: But you know what, when you have a cornerback like 1301 01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:19,160 Speaker 1: Tredavious White on the other side of the field, the 1302 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:22,680 Speaker 1: other guy's going to get attacked. Period. The better mismatch 1303 01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:25,720 Speaker 1: is almost always going to be the other guy. Well, 1304 01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:29,280 Speaker 1: lea By Wallace started off the year extremely well. He's 1305 01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:30,920 Speaker 1: hit a little bit of a rough patch. See what 1306 01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:33,440 Speaker 1: you got behind him, See what Kevin Johnson can do 1307 01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:36,320 Speaker 1: at the outside. Put a little competition out there, and 1308 01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:38,760 Speaker 1: you gotta be careful because you don't want to You 1309 01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:42,000 Speaker 1: don't want to crush lee By Wallace. But Levi By Wallace, 1310 01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:46,240 Speaker 1: I would assume has a mentality. He's been the underdog 1311 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 1: his whole life. He you know, he didn't start to 1312 01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:51,640 Speaker 1: a senior year at Alabama. He goes undrafted. You know, 1313 01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:55,080 Speaker 1: he's got that underdog mentality. I'm sure he's not down 1314 01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:58,120 Speaker 1: in the dumps about rotating. He's probably saying I need 1315 01:02:58,160 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 1: to step up to the challenge. Eric, what's our guests. 1316 01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:02,800 Speaker 1: He's a color analyst on the Bills Radio network, called 1317 01:03:02,840 --> 01:03:05,840 Speaker 1: The Game with Me yesterday down there in Miami. So 1318 01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:08,600 Speaker 1: other Bills had a healthy rotation at right tackle, which 1319 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:10,640 Speaker 1: may be in jeopardy now with the injury to Tai 1320 01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:13,560 Speaker 1: and Secki. Maybe Coach McDermott, let's us know later today 1321 01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:16,680 Speaker 1: how serious that injury is. Are they set up okay 1322 01:03:16,760 --> 01:03:18,840 Speaker 1: if and Seki has to miss some time or maybe 1323 01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:22,240 Speaker 1: even longer, Eric, what do you think? Yeah, and you're 1324 01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:25,439 Speaker 1: gonna roll out Cody Ford. And he's now three weeks 1325 01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:28,240 Speaker 1: removed from the elbow injury that had him set out 1326 01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:30,840 Speaker 1: the one game he was a healthy He was on 1327 01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:33,360 Speaker 1: the field dressed in case of emergency, but they held 1328 01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:36,720 Speaker 1: him out. And I mean that's why you play him both. 1329 01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:40,720 Speaker 1: You know you wanted to get Cody Forward reps even 1330 01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:43,680 Speaker 1: though early in the season, yes, Tai and Secki was 1331 01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:47,479 Speaker 1: playing better ball, especially in pass protection. Cody Forward maybe 1332 01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:49,320 Speaker 1: the better run blocker of the two of them, as 1333 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,480 Speaker 1: I analyzed the film, probably has a little bit more 1334 01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:56,040 Speaker 1: natural power. And Ti and Secky six foot eight, showed 1335 01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 1: me a bunch of really good run blockers at six 1336 01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 1: foot eight, and I'll be impressed. But Ti and Secky 1337 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:04,160 Speaker 1: has been excellent for the Buffalo Bills and past protection 1338 01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 1: this year. I also think his veteran leadership amongst the 1339 01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:10,120 Speaker 1: team was excellent in amongst the group upfront. But and 1340 01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:12,040 Speaker 1: now it's signed for Cody Ford to step up. And 1341 01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:14,920 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm sure this was where we were segueing, 1342 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:18,400 Speaker 1: but he's got a really tough matchup this week. And 1343 01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:21,080 Speaker 1: early in the season, Cody Ford struggled with the speed 1344 01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:24,040 Speaker 1: rush and a lot of guys do earlier in their careers. 1345 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:27,080 Speaker 1: Cody Ford played some guard, played some tackle at Oklahoma. 1346 01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:29,680 Speaker 1: You know, now he's exclusively on the edge of this 1347 01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:32,480 Speaker 1: season for the Bills, And a lot of that is 1348 01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:34,960 Speaker 1: because John Feliciano is playing so good at right guard. 1349 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:38,200 Speaker 1: You know, we him and Cody Ford was playing some 1350 01:04:38,360 --> 01:04:41,280 Speaker 1: right guard through training camp, within SECI at tackle, Well, 1351 01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:43,920 Speaker 1: tell you what, John Feliciano is playing like a man 1352 01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:47,320 Speaker 1: out there this year. So when you combine that with 1353 01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:51,360 Speaker 1: everything else, you've got an experienced tackle in Cody Ford. 1354 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 1: He's got roughly half the snaps this year. But now 1355 01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:56,560 Speaker 1: it's time for him to go. And at some point 1356 01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:58,560 Speaker 1: in every rookie season you say, hey, you're not a 1357 01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:03,320 Speaker 1: rookie anymore. You've got enough experience, and now's the time 1358 01:05:03,320 --> 01:05:06,800 Speaker 1: for Cody Ford. What about Well, first, one more thing 1359 01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:09,600 Speaker 1: about yesterday's game. You mentioned how you met with Ryan 1360 01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:11,920 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick pre game and he said he felt pretty good. 1361 01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:13,280 Speaker 1: Did you get a chance to check out with him 1362 01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:15,440 Speaker 1: after the game. He got hits a lot yesterday. He 1363 01:05:15,520 --> 01:05:18,640 Speaker 1: got sacks seven times. Yeah, he did. The Bills got 1364 01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:20,840 Speaker 1: after him. Seven sacks for the Bills defense. What a 1365 01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:25,400 Speaker 1: performance by them. I actually really enjoyed at Oliver's comment too, 1366 01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:28,000 Speaker 1: that he's still waiting for his first real sack. You know, 1367 01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:30,480 Speaker 1: he got one on the double pass and then yesterday 1368 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:34,680 Speaker 1: he goes unblocked. I just for me, as an offensive linement, 1369 01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:37,400 Speaker 1: it's refreshing to hear a defensive lineman say that because 1370 01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:42,200 Speaker 1: normally that guy gets up celebrates and you know, like 1371 01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:44,360 Speaker 1: it talks about how good he is and all that 1372 01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:47,640 Speaker 1: you were unblocked. But you know, as we see the 1373 01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 1: replay there, he's excited, but and he's pointing to his teammates, 1374 01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:53,040 Speaker 1: pointing to the bench. You know, they're getting fired up. 1375 01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:55,720 Speaker 1: But it's not like, you know, he did you know, 1376 01:05:55,840 --> 01:05:58,120 Speaker 1: the JJ Watt nail and the coffin after he got 1377 01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:01,800 Speaker 1: a sack coming completely unblocked. But yeah, I talked to 1378 01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:05,440 Speaker 1: fitz before the game yesterday. You know, one of my 1379 01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:10,720 Speaker 1: best friends absolutely love that dude. And I think Bill's 1380 01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:12,920 Speaker 1: fans still have a tremendous amount of respect for him 1381 01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:16,000 Speaker 1: in the way he played during his time in Buffalo, 1382 01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:19,120 Speaker 1: and he'll always be loved in the Buffalo community. And 1383 01:06:20,560 --> 01:06:23,000 Speaker 1: when he came up from my injury press conference last year, 1384 01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:26,840 Speaker 1: Bill's media swarmed him, and you know, he's just an 1385 01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:30,000 Speaker 1: extremely likable guy. But yeah, so I talked to him 1386 01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:32,479 Speaker 1: before the game yesterday and he said, you know, there's 1387 01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:34,640 Speaker 1: some seasons you get dinged up early and it feels 1388 01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:36,120 Speaker 1: like you can never get healthy. And there are some 1389 01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:38,360 Speaker 1: seasons where you got a string of good luck. And 1390 01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:39,760 Speaker 1: he said, I've had some good luck. And then I 1391 01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:41,960 Speaker 1: checked on him last night. He said he's still feeling good. 1392 01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:45,919 Speaker 1: So that's good because you know, obviously as many times 1393 01:06:45,920 --> 01:06:49,200 Speaker 1: as Bills were able to hit him yesterday, you have 1394 01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:51,800 Speaker 1: some concerns over how he's going to come out healthwise. 1395 01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:54,760 Speaker 1: One last thing for me, it's about going forward. The 1396 01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:57,160 Speaker 1: Bills hold the top wildcard spot in the AFC. They 1397 01:06:57,200 --> 01:07:00,160 Speaker 1: played the Denver Broncos coming in this weekend. It's interesting too, 1398 01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:03,520 Speaker 1: because this defense for the Denver Broncos, the Bills are 1399 01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:06,720 Speaker 1: number four overall in yards allowed, the Broncos are The 1400 01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:09,440 Speaker 1: Bills are number three, The Broncos are number four in 1401 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 1: yards allowed. This this may be one of those six 1402 01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:16,880 Speaker 1: to three games here in Buffalo that you know that's 1403 01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:20,040 Speaker 1: gonna be one of those nail biers. But at first glance, 1404 01:07:20,080 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 1: this is a tough matchup for sure. And I looked 1405 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:25,680 Speaker 1: at the forecast. I think it's a higher thirty nine, so, uh, 1406 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:28,520 Speaker 1: you know that the ball will be cold, it'll be slick. 1407 01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:31,360 Speaker 1: Hopefully we can keep the wind out of there. Otherwise 1408 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:35,640 Speaker 1: our boorn sal is gonna freeze down the field. But yeah, 1409 01:07:35,880 --> 01:07:37,520 Speaker 1: it could be. And it's a it's a battle of 1410 01:07:37,880 --> 01:07:41,560 Speaker 1: two really good defenses. You mentioned three and four there 1411 01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 1: Denver I believe is number ten in the league and 1412 01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:49,120 Speaker 1: scoring defense Buffalos at three third downs. I was comparing 1413 01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:54,920 Speaker 1: them this morning, both really good third down defenses. You know, 1414 01:07:55,040 --> 01:07:57,000 Speaker 1: just a number of statistics where they're both in the 1415 01:07:57,120 --> 01:08:00,160 Speaker 1: top ten. So it will be. It will be a 1416 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:03,360 Speaker 1: good matchup. Hopefully the Bills can bring some confidence from 1417 01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:07,760 Speaker 1: the last game, and also with this hurry up offense, 1418 01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:12,760 Speaker 1: maybe they Oh I will also say in regards to 1419 01:08:12,840 --> 01:08:15,280 Speaker 1: what they did on offense yesterday. Loved all the eleven 1420 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:21,280 Speaker 1: personnel through this season. I don't know the exact yards 1421 01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:23,519 Speaker 1: per Harry, but I would bet that the yards per 1422 01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:27,280 Speaker 1: carriers significantly higher for them in their eleven personnel. It's 1423 01:08:27,280 --> 01:08:29,160 Speaker 1: just tough to run a football in this league when 1424 01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:31,559 Speaker 1: you have so many big bodies out there. Well, yesterday 1425 01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:36,439 Speaker 1: almost exclusively John Brown, Cole Beasley, Isah McKenzie, Tyler Croft 1426 01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:39,320 Speaker 1: or Dawson Knox at tight end, and then Devin Singletary 1427 01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:41,200 Speaker 1: or Frank Gore in the backfield. Well, when you have 1428 01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 1: McKenzie on the field, you always have to respect the 1429 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:46,000 Speaker 1: fact that he could always come across the formation in 1430 01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:49,479 Speaker 1: a jet sweep. They also tossed him a reverse yesterday 1431 01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:52,200 Speaker 1: for a ten plus yard run. And anytime you're getting 1432 01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:55,880 Speaker 1: ten plus yards runs in this league, that's a great play. 1433 01:08:56,280 --> 01:08:59,960 Speaker 1: And so they pitched him a reverse yesterday. But maybe 1434 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:03,320 Speaker 1: they can attack the Denver defense, keep them honest in 1435 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:06,280 Speaker 1: the run game. Attack they're eleven person out their nickel 1436 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:10,679 Speaker 1: defense on the ground and maybe slow down that pass 1437 01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 1: rush a little bit, Maybe help out your tackles a 1438 01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:15,519 Speaker 1: little bit against number fifty eight Von Miller. Yeah, we'll 1439 01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:17,320 Speaker 1: be talking to him a lot this week. Eric, thanks 1440 01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:18,960 Speaker 1: for this. We'll talk as the week moves along. We 1441 01:09:19,040 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 1: appreciate it. Now my pleasure. Looking forward to seeing you 1442 01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:25,080 Speaker 1: guys this weekend.

Now 1447 01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:35,880 Speaker 1: I'll have to start getting to work on the Broncos today. Yeah.

Sorry, We're happy 1457 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:24,080 Speaker 1: to have Jazz must be he must be busy this 1458 01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:26,160 Speaker 1: time of year. Eric brought it up. I think so too. 1459 01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:28,880 Speaker 1: It might have been his best game. He's had good games, 1460 01:10:29,200 --> 01:10:31,960 Speaker 1: mostly against the Dolphins, by the way, but um, what 1461 01:10:32,040 --> 01:10:34,640 Speaker 1: do they have three passing touchdowns, two rushing touchdowns a 1462 01:10:34,760 --> 01:10:37,840 Speaker 1: year ago, right in December against Miami and right, and 1463 01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:40,479 Speaker 1: he played great yesterday too. I think he played might 1464 01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:42,519 Speaker 1: have been his best game in the NFL twenty first 1465 01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:44,599 Speaker 1: NFL game. What do you think You always want them 1466 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 1: to have their best games against division rivals. Yeah, you know, absolutely, 1467 01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:55,639 Speaker 1: and he has. We'll see. Um, Yeah, he played really well, 1468 01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:59,080 Speaker 1: played really well. Let's check ran and I mean he 1469 01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:03,439 Speaker 1: made some throws that were good. It's pretty amazing what 1470 01:11:03,600 --> 01:11:05,439 Speaker 1: he's able, what he was able to do yesterday, and 1471 01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:08,639 Speaker 1: the step forwards he's taken and we're sitting here why 1472 01:11:08,840 --> 01:11:11,160 Speaker 1: why And lets you mentioned it earlier in the show. 1473 01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:16,880 Speaker 1: He gets he gets critiqued moment by moment, and he 1474 01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:18,720 Speaker 1: has for two and two and a half year or 1475 01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:21,479 Speaker 1: whatever it is eighteen months now that since they drafted 1476 01:11:21,560 --> 01:11:24,640 Speaker 1: him in last April. I mean, everything he's done has 1477 01:11:24,680 --> 01:11:28,280 Speaker 1: been under the microscope and he's taken more steps forward 1478 01:11:28,320 --> 01:11:30,920 Speaker 1: than he has back. But like we said, it's you 1479 01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 1: know he's not finished yet. He's got a long way 1480 01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:34,800 Speaker 1: to go before he comes. And I think the thing 1481 01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:37,360 Speaker 1: we're seeing that after a game like yesterday, they see 1482 01:11:37,400 --> 01:11:41,360 Speaker 1: some consistency, more consistency. He's done that certainly by cutting 1483 01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:44,599 Speaker 1: out the bad plays, the turnovers and stuff. And we're 1484 01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:46,200 Speaker 1: gonna have him on here on the show in a 1485 01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:50,280 Speaker 1: couple of minutes, but just I might have to ask him, 1486 01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:52,120 Speaker 1: what's it been like? Man? You live in your life 1487 01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:55,080 Speaker 1: under the microscope. Yeah, we'll ask him.

Eight h three oh five fifty 1498 01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:23,880 Speaker 1: twelve three one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty. 1499 01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:26,360 Speaker 1: So they said sixty nine percent answer is a great 1500 01:12:26,439 --> 01:12:28,679 Speaker 1: day for Josh Allen, what do you think about that? Jock? 1501 01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:30,920 Speaker 1: About that Josh Allen joining us right now? And I said, 1502 01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:34,760 Speaker 1: what do I think about it? Yeah, everybody's everybody's giving 1503 01:12:34,760 --> 01:12:37,320 Speaker 1: you credit for the win. That's so unusual for a quarterback. 1504 01:12:37,360 --> 01:12:41,720 Speaker 1: I know, our line played outstanding yesterday. Obviously Smoke had 1505 01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:44,800 Speaker 1: had a fantastic day. Our defense played well. Coach Daba 1506 01:12:44,800 --> 01:12:47,680 Speaker 1: called an amazing game. There's a total team win, for sure. 1507 01:12:47,800 --> 01:12:50,760 Speaker 1: I was gonna ask you what what was the thought 1508 01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:53,200 Speaker 1: behind it? What did it mean? What effected it have 1509 01:12:53,360 --> 01:12:56,040 Speaker 1: day ball? Being upstairs any I mean, it just allowed 1510 01:12:56,120 --> 01:12:58,800 Speaker 1: him to see some things differently. I think, getting kind 1511 01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:01,360 Speaker 1: of a bird's eye view, and especially as an offensive coordinator, 1512 01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:04,519 Speaker 1: easier to see personnel change on the defense, easier to 1513 01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:06,920 Speaker 1: kind of see how they're playing things. Um, you know, 1514 01:13:07,000 --> 01:13:10,599 Speaker 1: on the sideline we get pictures, but it's not the same. Yeah, 1515 01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:14,000 Speaker 1: And just to be clear, the mech and the mechanics 1516 01:13:14,040 --> 01:13:16,880 Speaker 1: of it are Brian talks directly to yours, Ken Dorsey 1517 01:13:16,920 --> 01:13:18,479 Speaker 1: and the loop there as well, or how how do they? 1518 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:20,200 Speaker 1: I mean, when I'm on the field, it's just just 1519 01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:22,280 Speaker 1: Dave's in my ear. But when we go on the sideline, 1520 01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:26,280 Speaker 1: Dorse and Daves are communicating constantly, so Dorsey's kind of 1521 01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:29,080 Speaker 1: feed me information and then, um, if Dave wants to 1522 01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:31,559 Speaker 1: talk to talk to me, he'll call it the phone. 1523 01:13:31,680 --> 01:13:33,439 Speaker 1: I'll get on the phone, I'll talk to him. And 1524 01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:35,479 Speaker 1: when you're in the field, it's the fifteen second cut 1525 01:13:35,520 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 1: off still right? Correct? Did he go right down to 1526 01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:42,960 Speaker 1: fifteen seconds of the uh we gotta yesterday? Yeah? So, um, 1527 01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:46,599 Speaker 1: you know, he called the plays in very quickly yesterday 1528 01:13:46,680 --> 01:13:48,000 Speaker 1: and we try to get out there and tried to 1529 01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:49,439 Speaker 1: execute as best as we could. What do you think 1530 01:13:49,479 --> 01:13:51,639 Speaker 1: of the huddle, the hurry up? It was nice. Yeah, 1531 01:13:51,720 --> 01:13:53,600 Speaker 1: it'll you know, allowed us to make some checks with 1532 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:56,720 Speaker 1: the line and kind of get ourselves in an advantageous 1533 01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 1: situation there. So, um, I don't know if that's what 1534 01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:01,000 Speaker 1: we're going to continue to do, but um, you know, 1535 01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:04,040 Speaker 1: week two weeks everything's different. But it worked for us 1536 01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:06,479 Speaker 1: this past week. Josh Allen Bill's quarterback in studio with 1537 01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:08,439 Speaker 1: us for a couple of minutes here. The start of 1538 01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:11,320 Speaker 1: the game was big and we were wondering whether house 1539 01:14:11,560 --> 01:14:14,000 Speaker 1: is fifty one yard field goals sort of set the tone. 1540 01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:16,120 Speaker 1: Everybody's like, okay, we got house, get back, let's go, 1541 01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:18,000 Speaker 1: because it kind of everything kind of snowballed after that. 1542 01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:19,880 Speaker 1: You went up thirteen to nothing. Right, Yeah, it was 1543 01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:22,680 Speaker 1: great to see him get back out there and doing 1544 01:14:22,720 --> 01:14:24,720 Speaker 1: what he does. And you know, it was just it 1545 01:14:24,800 --> 01:14:26,479 Speaker 1: was a good game for our confidence. I think it 1546 01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:28,680 Speaker 1: allowed us to kind of get back on track, and um, 1547 01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:31,600 Speaker 1: kind of showed what we can be as long as 1548 01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:33,519 Speaker 1: we go out there and execute. And I think on 1549 01:14:33,640 --> 01:14:35,639 Speaker 1: all three phases we did pretty well. Josh, how much 1550 01:14:35,680 --> 01:14:39,920 Speaker 1: did you internalize what you said Sean McDermott said last week, 1551 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:42,800 Speaker 1: play fearless. How much did you think about that last 1552 01:14:42,800 --> 01:14:44,600 Speaker 1: week and even going into the game. Yes, Um, I 1553 01:14:44,680 --> 01:14:47,439 Speaker 1: mean it just kind of gave me a green light 1554 01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:49,160 Speaker 1: to go out there and play free and not to 1555 01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:51,360 Speaker 1: worry about things, not to worry about interceptions, not to 1556 01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:53,479 Speaker 1: worry about, you know, turning the ball over, not to 1557 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,639 Speaker 1: worry about an incompletion here or there. Obviously there's still 1558 01:14:56,640 --> 01:14:57,760 Speaker 1: a lot of things that I want to clean up 1559 01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:01,280 Speaker 1: and still have to clean up. But I went out 1560 01:15:01,320 --> 01:15:03,880 Speaker 1: there and you know, put the ball downfield, and um, 1561 01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:06,800 Speaker 1: you know, our guys made some plays and our line 1562 01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:10,240 Speaker 1: blocked tremendously. We had zero sacks yesterday, which is fantastic. 1563 01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:14,760 Speaker 1: So I owed them something special here. Pretty pretty tell. 1564 01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:20,559 Speaker 1: Brian Dabeles gotten some compliments today about the game he called, 1565 01:15:22,040 --> 01:15:23,880 Speaker 1: and I was going to ask you, certainly we saw 1566 01:15:23,920 --> 01:15:25,880 Speaker 1: the team play with a lot of enthusiasm, some some 1567 01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:28,559 Speaker 1: kind of fire. That fearless attitude you talk about. Could 1568 01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:30,400 Speaker 1: you feel the coaching staff maybe turn it up a 1569 01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:34,479 Speaker 1: notch And if Sean McDermott told you guys to play fearless, 1570 01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:36,160 Speaker 1: do you think he had that same conversation with his 1571 01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:40,120 Speaker 1: coaching staff. I'm sure he did. But you know, as 1572 01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:43,200 Speaker 1: an offensive staff, we weren't stressing. We weren't trying to 1573 01:15:43,280 --> 01:15:45,880 Speaker 1: be trying to put more pressure on us than we 1574 01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:47,800 Speaker 1: needed to. We want to do out there. We wanted 1575 01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:50,240 Speaker 1: to execute how we how we know we can execute. UM. 1576 01:15:50,439 --> 01:15:54,160 Speaker 1: I don't think anything really changed in that aspect, but 1577 01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:55,880 Speaker 1: it definitely it feels good to go out there and 1578 01:15:55,920 --> 01:15:58,920 Speaker 1: put up thirty seven points against the defense that was 1579 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:01,000 Speaker 1: been playing well the last or five weeks. They really 1580 01:16:01,040 --> 01:16:04,680 Speaker 1: have been so two out there and excuton um, you know, 1581 01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:06,880 Speaker 1: show some promise of what we can be a couple 1582 01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:08,559 Speaker 1: of touchdowns to ask you about, let me ask your 1583 01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:10,800 Speaker 1: first about the first one, the forty yard pass to 1584 01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:13,080 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. You threw a rope down there. They had 1585 01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:15,559 Speaker 1: to feel pretty good to connect like that. Yeah, no, yeah, 1586 01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:17,160 Speaker 1: we got covered two there, and I checked out of 1587 01:16:17,560 --> 01:16:20,680 Speaker 1: what we had and I told John previously we got 1588 01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:23,920 Speaker 1: we had the same look to the same play, you know, 1589 01:16:24,040 --> 01:16:26,880 Speaker 1: a quarter earlier, and I said, you know, after seeing 1590 01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:29,120 Speaker 1: some film work and seeing those safeties, kind of being nosy, 1591 01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:31,600 Speaker 1: said if we get this look again, be ready for it. 1592 01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:34,479 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, luckily we got we got the 1593 01:16:34,560 --> 01:16:37,559 Speaker 1: same thing. And post snap, I saw him get into two, 1594 01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:39,120 Speaker 1: so I wanted to give a little pump fake and 1595 01:16:39,160 --> 01:16:41,519 Speaker 1: then um, you know, John did his job and caught 1596 01:16:41,560 --> 01:16:42,920 Speaker 1: the ball and made a man miss and got in 1597 01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:44,080 Speaker 1: the end zone. Let me just gep ahead to the 1598 01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:47,400 Speaker 1: second John round touchdown pass where you kind of um, 1599 01:16:47,560 --> 01:16:49,360 Speaker 1: you you've rolled one way and threw it back the 1600 01:16:49,439 --> 01:16:51,280 Speaker 1: other way. That's not an easy and by the way, 1601 01:16:51,320 --> 01:16:53,360 Speaker 1: that's a kind of a fearless pass to make there, 1602 01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:55,040 Speaker 1: isn't it. Yeah, you got tipped it. It was a 1603 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:57,120 Speaker 1: little tight, a little a little small window there, but 1604 01:16:57,360 --> 01:16:59,720 Speaker 1: uh got the job done. And again he's in the 1605 01:16:59,800 --> 01:17:03,040 Speaker 1: right spot. At the right time, and um like hopefully 1606 01:17:03,080 --> 01:17:05,120 Speaker 1: you know, luckily a little tip didn't didn't bother the 1607 01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:07,640 Speaker 1: past too much. Yeah, we're gonna ask you too that 1608 01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:09,920 Speaker 1: we got to highlight of you running the ball in 1609 01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:12,240 Speaker 1: on the role out where you kind of looked around 1610 01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:16,439 Speaker 1: and then you just decided to carry it in. You're 1611 01:17:16,439 --> 01:17:19,599 Speaker 1: coming in and the safety's coming down. Take us through 1612 01:17:19,640 --> 01:17:22,240 Speaker 1: your thought process. Are you thinking our should I slide, 1613 01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:24,240 Speaker 1: should I dive? Should I try and avoid the hit, 1614 01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:26,439 Speaker 1: should I run out a bound a short or and 1615 01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:28,400 Speaker 1: when did you decide? You know what, I'm just I'm 1616 01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:30,160 Speaker 1: just gonna make this guy take me on and score 1617 01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:32,400 Speaker 1: the time. Well, if five re call, it was third down. UM, 1618 01:17:33,600 --> 01:17:35,680 Speaker 1: so at that point I wanted to get in the 1619 01:17:35,760 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 1: end zone obviously and give ourselves a touchdown. But uh, 1620 01:17:39,320 --> 01:17:41,880 Speaker 1: you know, we had a good combination call. They played 1621 01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:43,880 Speaker 1: man coverage to it, and um they had a good 1622 01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:47,400 Speaker 1: defensive call to to match that. Um. But so I 1623 01:17:47,479 --> 01:17:49,240 Speaker 1: took off and I saw the safety's angle, try to 1624 01:17:49,240 --> 01:17:51,080 Speaker 1: give him a little hesitation just to slow him down 1625 01:17:51,120 --> 01:17:52,920 Speaker 1: for a second so I can catch the edge there, 1626 01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:56,479 Speaker 1: and luckily got in. You I know, the coaching staff 1627 01:17:56,600 --> 01:18:00,360 Speaker 1: and outside observers have talking about kind of self preserve ration. 1628 01:18:00,840 --> 01:18:03,360 Speaker 1: That doesn't seem to be him playing him run like that, right, 1629 01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:06,960 Speaker 1: you're basically sell out right, And you took a hit actually, 1630 01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 1: I mean it wasn't a huge hit, and I mean 1631 01:18:09,080 --> 01:18:11,160 Speaker 1: he he pushed me a little bit, but it wasn't 1632 01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:13,920 Speaker 1: anything crazy. And you know, we were running and we 1633 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:16,840 Speaker 1: were running basically the same direction. So when you guys, 1634 01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:19,920 Speaker 1: when you got that going on, um, the impact isn't 1635 01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:22,920 Speaker 1: too much. It's it's when you're running directly at each 1636 01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:25,200 Speaker 1: other in the opposite direction. Feliciana might have given you 1637 01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:26,680 Speaker 1: a harder here. Yeah, I got up and he was 1638 01:18:26,800 --> 01:18:30,920 Speaker 1: right there. He was down there quick. Yeah pounds. Yeah, 1639 01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:33,760 Speaker 1: And we talked about in our meeting today. So do that. 1640 01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:37,000 Speaker 1: We gotta let him know you take it easy. Taney 1641 01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:39,760 Speaker 1: left the game. The good news is if he's out 1642 01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:42,719 Speaker 1: for a while or even a long while, Cody Ford's 1643 01:18:42,760 --> 01:18:44,320 Speaker 1: stepped in there. I mean, he's played there. It's not 1644 01:18:44,360 --> 01:18:46,400 Speaker 1: like you're throwing somebody new into the breach here. Yeah. 1645 01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:48,720 Speaker 1: I mean, you know we're all praying for Tie and um, 1646 01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:50,519 Speaker 1: you know, I hate to see anybody get hurt. And 1647 01:18:51,240 --> 01:18:52,799 Speaker 1: you know he's been a big part of our offense, 1648 01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:54,920 Speaker 1: you know, just stepping in when he needed to, kind 1649 01:18:54,920 --> 01:18:56,360 Speaker 1: of him and Cody going back and forth at that 1650 01:18:56,479 --> 01:18:59,000 Speaker 1: right tackle position. Um, and he's been fantastic. You know 1651 01:18:59,160 --> 01:19:02,840 Speaker 1: his mindset, you know how he plays. He's aggressive. Um, 1652 01:19:03,320 --> 01:19:06,000 Speaker 1: you know, he's definitely an anchor on the line. He's 1653 01:19:06,040 --> 01:19:11,160 Speaker 1: a big dude too. Holy crap, he's basically I've seen Yeah, 1654 01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:14,479 Speaker 1: but you know, it sucks that that happens. It's football. Um. 1655 01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:17,439 Speaker 1: You know, we drafted Cody for a reason that high, 1656 01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:20,360 Speaker 1: so you know we expect nothing different from him to 1657 01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:21,880 Speaker 1: go out there and play like he did yesterday. So 1658 01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:23,439 Speaker 1: we have this Twitter poll and a lot of people 1659 01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:25,360 Speaker 1: are giving you a lot of credit for being the difference, 1660 01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:28,200 Speaker 1: you know at seventeen point when that's big in the league. Right. 1661 01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:30,000 Speaker 1: What's the game feel like to you? What do you 1662 01:19:30,120 --> 01:19:32,439 Speaker 1: think after you you come off the field. You guys 1663 01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:36,799 Speaker 1: score hang thirty seven on on the Dolphins, uh, whatever 1664 01:19:36,880 --> 01:19:41,160 Speaker 1: their record is, notwithstanding, how does that game feel to you? 1665 01:19:41,280 --> 01:19:42,519 Speaker 1: What did you come out of there saying, I did 1666 01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:44,360 Speaker 1: you know? Did this bet? Or did this worst? Did that? 1667 01:19:44,439 --> 01:19:46,080 Speaker 1: You know? What? What are your thoughts about your own 1668 01:19:46,160 --> 01:19:48,320 Speaker 1: game and that the way that game went Sunday. You know, 1669 01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:51,000 Speaker 1: I thought I thought we played pretty well. Um again, 1670 01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:52,800 Speaker 1: looking at it from my situation, I try not to 1671 01:19:52,840 --> 01:19:55,519 Speaker 1: get too high or too low, understanding that there was 1672 01:19:55,520 --> 01:19:57,200 Speaker 1: a lot of things I missed. Um, a couple of 1673 01:19:57,280 --> 01:20:00,120 Speaker 1: checks here, there, a couple of ball placement issues, some 1674 01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:02,800 Speaker 1: of the shorter stuff, and so I gotta, I gotta, 1675 01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:05,680 Speaker 1: you know, tone in on that this week, and um, 1676 01:20:05,840 --> 01:20:08,840 Speaker 1: find more completions there and get our guys the ball 1677 01:20:08,880 --> 01:20:10,519 Speaker 1: in space so they can make some place. You're talking 1678 01:20:10,520 --> 01:20:12,559 Speaker 1: about getting too higher, too little. Seamen and I were 1679 01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:14,800 Speaker 1: talking about it last hour. It seems to me that 1680 01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:17,200 Speaker 1: and you know, you twenty one NFL starts out, but 1681 01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:21,599 Speaker 1: you are judged sometimes on an almost weekly basis by media, 1682 01:20:21,680 --> 01:20:24,720 Speaker 1: by fans, even um, oh yes, great game, he's the guy. 1683 01:20:24,920 --> 01:20:26,439 Speaker 1: Oh no, he didn't do this. Maybe he's not the 1684 01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:28,760 Speaker 1: guy yet. Your perspective, it seems to me, is sort 1685 01:20:28,760 --> 01:20:30,680 Speaker 1: of a big picture. Sometimes. Do you share when you 1686 01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:33,160 Speaker 1: hear the weekly it's like a weekly referendum on how 1687 01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:35,679 Speaker 1: is Josh doing this week? Listen, you can't make everybody happy. 1688 01:20:35,720 --> 01:20:37,880 Speaker 1: I know that, and uh, you know, I'm not worried 1689 01:20:37,880 --> 01:20:40,439 Speaker 1: about trying to make people happy. I'm trying to put 1690 01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:43,240 Speaker 1: our team in situations and positions to win football games, 1691 01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:44,760 Speaker 1: and that's all I care about. You seem to do 1692 01:20:44,800 --> 01:20:46,840 Speaker 1: well against the Dolphins. Now you've got a little record 1693 01:20:46,880 --> 01:20:50,800 Speaker 1: here against the Miami Dolphins, right, I guess so, yeah, 1694 01:20:50,840 --> 01:20:53,880 Speaker 1: I don't know why. Um, maybe it's the warm weather 1695 01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:57,599 Speaker 1: down that. I don't know. What's going forward? Denver Broncos 1696 01:20:57,680 --> 01:20:59,719 Speaker 1: coming in, gave got the team, gave got the team 1697 01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:02,080 Speaker 1: a day off from the win yesterday, which is a 1698 01:21:02,120 --> 01:21:04,080 Speaker 1: kind of nice little bonus. She started doing second half 1699 01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:05,960 Speaker 1: of the year. It's nice. You know, the more rest 1700 01:21:06,040 --> 01:21:08,080 Speaker 1: you get sometimes the better heels you up a little better. 1701 01:21:08,520 --> 01:21:12,000 Speaker 1: Going forward. You got Denver Broncos coming in, who jumped 1702 01:21:12,040 --> 01:21:13,960 Speaker 1: out in early league. What's your And they've got a 1703 01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:16,519 Speaker 1: defense that's almost as good as the one you play 1704 01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:18,759 Speaker 1: with and on your own building. What's that say about 1705 01:21:19,160 --> 01:21:22,800 Speaker 1: going forward? They got some dudes on that side. Um, 1706 01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:25,559 Speaker 1: you know they got a lockdown corner over there. Obviously, 1707 01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:27,320 Speaker 1: we know about von Miller and his success in the 1708 01:21:27,400 --> 01:21:29,479 Speaker 1: last few years in the NFL. Um one of the 1709 01:21:29,560 --> 01:21:32,200 Speaker 1: most dominant pass rushers in the league. So you know, 1710 01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:33,880 Speaker 1: we got to be ready. They're coming into our house 1711 01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:36,559 Speaker 1: and you know, they suffered a pretty tough loss last 1712 01:21:36,600 --> 01:21:40,200 Speaker 1: week or yesterday. Um, so I'm sure that they're gonna 1713 01:21:40,200 --> 01:21:41,960 Speaker 1: be filling that one and they're gonna be hungry for 1714 01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:45,519 Speaker 1: for a win, and they're coming into our place and 1715 01:21:45,520 --> 01:21:47,960 Speaker 1: they're gonna be they're gonna be tuned up. So we 1716 01:21:48,040 --> 01:21:49,880 Speaker 1: gotta be ready for that and kind of take care 1717 01:21:49,920 --> 01:21:52,000 Speaker 1: of any shots that they give us early and just 1718 01:21:52,160 --> 01:21:54,439 Speaker 1: roll with the punches and um, you gotta got there 1719 01:21:54,439 --> 01:21:56,200 Speaker 1: an execute. How much fun is this to be? Seven 1720 01:21:56,280 --> 01:21:59,439 Speaker 1: and three going going into late November? Now it's fun. 1721 01:22:01,160 --> 01:22:03,200 Speaker 1: We want more, you know, we know that we know 1722 01:22:03,360 --> 01:22:05,840 Speaker 1: what number we typically need to get to to get 1723 01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:07,920 Speaker 1: into the playoffs. So we just got to try to 1724 01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:10,280 Speaker 1: keep stacking wins um week in and week out and 1725 01:22:10,920 --> 01:22:13,120 Speaker 1: preparing like we're preparing, not trying to change anything and 1726 01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:15,800 Speaker 1: not trying to do anything drastically different. And kind of 1727 01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:20,160 Speaker 1: came coach Ball, my coach and Woming said, you dance 1728 01:22:20,240 --> 01:22:22,800 Speaker 1: with what or you dance with who you brung, right, 1729 01:22:23,160 --> 01:22:25,880 Speaker 1: so try not to do anything different. He's super old school, 1730 01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:27,840 Speaker 1: So a shout out coach Ball. He had a bunch 1731 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:30,840 Speaker 1: of saying last question for me, yesterday, John Brown had 1732 01:22:30,880 --> 01:22:34,519 Speaker 1: a big game. It's probably's biggest as a bill. He's 1733 01:22:34,600 --> 01:22:36,280 Speaker 1: become your you know, you target him more than you 1734 01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:38,640 Speaker 1: target anybody. And I think he the one guy who 1735 01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:41,280 Speaker 1: was calling for him to be signed is Murf even 1736 01:22:41,320 --> 01:22:44,200 Speaker 1: before even before free agency. Murfa, that's the guy we want. 1737 01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:46,960 Speaker 1: He saw him, you know, two years ago. Let's scout right, 1738 01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:51,320 Speaker 1: give us a little insight on what your ideas are 1739 01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:53,560 Speaker 1: about John How how dependable you think he is? You 1740 01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:56,640 Speaker 1: obviously throwing the ball in just about any situation you 1741 01:22:56,720 --> 01:22:59,040 Speaker 1: feel like it, and he's really come through more often 1742 01:22:59,080 --> 01:23:01,920 Speaker 1: than not. Man, I mean, I can't say enough about 1743 01:23:01,960 --> 01:23:04,120 Speaker 1: the guy. Um, how he how he prepares, how we 1744 01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:07,599 Speaker 1: attacks each and every day. Um, the type of man 1745 01:23:07,720 --> 01:23:10,000 Speaker 1: that he is, the type of father that he is. 1746 01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:13,600 Speaker 1: I mean, he had a great game yesterday, but he 1747 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:16,880 Speaker 1: also gave thirty something forty something tickets to kids that 1748 01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:20,080 Speaker 1: had good grades over there in Miami.

It's starting 1786 01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:19,559 Speaker 1: to make sense to him. You know, I go ahead, 1787 01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:21,840 Speaker 1: Oh the point, and I don't want to be labor 1788 01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:24,280 Speaker 1: the point. But we can't have a weekly referendum on 1789 01:25:24,400 --> 01:25:26,280 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. We can't go week to week like is 1790 01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:28,920 Speaker 1: he good enough? Oh? Yeah, this week is next week? 1791 01:25:28,960 --> 01:25:30,320 Speaker 1: Oh I don't know if he is the guy. You know, 1792 01:25:30,680 --> 01:25:33,400 Speaker 1: let's let the season play out. Even like he it's 1793 01:25:33,479 --> 01:25:35,840 Speaker 1: we're talking about him and he's sitting there saying that 1794 01:25:35,840 --> 01:25:38,479 Speaker 1: I don't really care what's being said. That's you know 1795 01:25:38,680 --> 01:25:39,920 Speaker 1: that I think we all have to kind of take 1796 01:25:39,920 --> 01:25:42,439 Speaker 1: a half step back and say, look at what Josh 1797 01:25:42,520 --> 01:25:44,679 Speaker 1: has done, Look what he's doing. It's fine to point 1798 01:25:44,720 --> 01:25:49,000 Speaker 1: out his shortcomings. There are some areas that need improvement, yes, absolutely, 1799 01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:52,200 Speaker 1: but you don't need to have an election every week 1800 01:25:52,280 --> 01:25:55,479 Speaker 1: either as there whether he's the guy or not. Yeah. No, 1801 01:25:55,960 --> 01:25:59,080 Speaker 1: I when I started doing the CBS thing, was doing 1802 01:25:59,160 --> 01:26:01,680 Speaker 1: national games all over the NFL, you'd get a chance 1803 01:26:01,680 --> 01:26:03,920 Speaker 1: to sit down with young quarterbacks all the time, because 1804 01:26:04,080 --> 01:26:06,320 Speaker 1: you know, it was like the fourth crew, fifth Crew, 1805 01:26:06,479 --> 01:26:10,200 Speaker 1: sixth crew, you know, you know whatever, whatever, Right, we 1806 01:26:10,280 --> 01:26:12,639 Speaker 1: were seeing the young quarterbacks who were on these teams 1807 01:26:12,680 --> 01:26:16,400 Speaker 1: that were building, and you get a load of them, 1808 01:26:16,439 --> 01:26:18,040 Speaker 1: you know, their rookie year where you come in and 1809 01:26:18,120 --> 01:26:19,880 Speaker 1: sit down and talk with them, and man, oh man, 1810 01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 1: it was just flying around him, you know, I mean 1811 01:26:22,160 --> 01:26:25,960 Speaker 1: it's going crazy. And may were or like Josh was 1812 01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:27,600 Speaker 1: a little bit last year. He comes across as a 1813 01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:29,280 Speaker 1: kind of a high school kid where he's just trying 1814 01:26:29,320 --> 01:26:31,360 Speaker 1: to you know, trying to say the right things, doesn't 1815 01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:33,639 Speaker 1: want to you know, doesn't want to make a mistake, 1816 01:26:33,720 --> 01:26:35,320 Speaker 1: that kind of thing. And even in the interviews in 1817 01:26:35,400 --> 01:26:37,800 Speaker 1: the interview process and the production meetings we used to 1818 01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:40,360 Speaker 1: do with these young guys, and then you know the 1819 01:26:40,439 --> 01:26:43,840 Speaker 1: ones that you can see the ones. They all got 1820 01:26:43,960 --> 01:26:46,800 Speaker 1: a struggle, you know, to a certain extent, but how 1821 01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:48,720 Speaker 1: they handled those struggles and the next time you saw 1822 01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:50,519 Speaker 1: him when they weren't playing well as a tough stretch 1823 01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:52,479 Speaker 1: of the season, how they handled that interview differently or 1824 01:26:52,520 --> 01:26:55,559 Speaker 1: whether it was better or worse. And you can see 1825 01:26:55,720 --> 01:26:59,519 Speaker 1: this guy. We we just spoke to Josh Allen. He's 1826 01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:06,040 Speaker 1: he's evolving into a mature quarterback who has the wherewithal 1827 01:27:06,160 --> 01:27:13,960 Speaker 1: to carry the conversation. It's that's to me, you're seeing 1828 01:27:14,040 --> 01:27:16,599 Speaker 1: something in him. It's just a glimmer, not not fully fledged. 1829 01:27:16,640 --> 01:27:19,640 Speaker 1: But he's just a little bit different now than he was, 1830 01:27:20,240 --> 01:27:22,080 Speaker 1: you know, eight or ten months ago. He's a little 1831 01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:24,240 Speaker 1: different guy, talks differently and carries himself a little bit. 1832 01:27:24,400 --> 01:27:27,000 Speaker 1: Like you said this, he was sitting here. He couldn't 1833 01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:28,840 Speaker 1: have been more comfortable. I guarantee if we had turned 1834 01:27:28,880 --> 01:27:30,400 Speaker 1: up the heat like a sauna like what he was 1835 01:27:30,400 --> 01:27:31,960 Speaker 1: said too, he might have just stayed here and talking. 1836 01:27:32,160 --> 01:27:35,000 Speaker 1: He was. He was perfectly comfortabel and nothing was too 1837 01:27:35,080 --> 01:27:37,080 Speaker 1: big for him. He had answers for everything he could 1838 01:27:37,120 --> 01:27:40,800 Speaker 1: talked about. You know, his vocabulary is changing. Everything is 1839 01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:43,679 Speaker 1: about him, you know, growing up twenty three years old, 1840 01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:46,800 Speaker 1: growing up. You know, you go in and talk to 1841 01:27:46,880 --> 01:27:50,720 Speaker 1: guys like Philip Rivers now or Eli Manning and these 1842 01:27:50,760 --> 01:27:53,080 Speaker 1: guys like Ben Roethlisberger and Drew Brees and all these 1843 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:56,000 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that have been around a while. It is a 1844 01:27:56,160 --> 01:27:59,120 Speaker 1: completely different type of conversation you have with them than 1845 01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:01,879 Speaker 1: it is with a guy like a Josh Allen, particularly 1846 01:28:01,960 --> 01:28:04,840 Speaker 1: Gosh Allen from last year. And he's moving in the 1847 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:11,280 Speaker 1: direction towards those guys pretty fast apparently. So it's interesting here. 1848 01:28:11,280 --> 01:28:13,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if I articulated as well. There's a 1849 01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:15,679 Speaker 1: change in the guy. I see it, and I don't 1850 01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:21,080 Speaker 1: see him all that often. Yep, you know, um, yeah, 1851 01:28:21,240 --> 01:28:23,400 Speaker 1: there's some things on the horizon for him. Yep. A 1852 01:28:23,439 --> 01:28:25,720 Speaker 1: lot of Bill's talking after the game yesterday, and we 1853 01:28:25,840 --> 01:28:28,439 Speaker 1: had cameras and microphones in the locker room. Time to 1854 01:28:28,479 --> 01:28:30,519 Speaker 1: take a trip around the locker room, brought to you 1855 01:28:30,640 --> 01:28:33,640 Speaker 1: by connect like Blood and organ Donor Network. Here we 1856 01:28:33,720 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 1: go around the locker room. Head coach Sean McDermott. He 1857 01:28:38,160 --> 01:28:41,000 Speaker 1: got a full sixty minute effort from his team. I 1858 01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:43,040 Speaker 1: thought they had the eye the tiger. They really did, 1859 01:28:43,120 --> 01:28:45,120 Speaker 1: and that you know, those guys will tell you it 1860 01:28:45,200 --> 01:28:49,120 Speaker 1: wasn't it wasn't an easy week. And and so that's 1861 01:28:49,160 --> 01:28:51,080 Speaker 1: that just shows that the amount of resiliency and then 1862 01:28:51,120 --> 01:28:53,599 Speaker 1: group and the amount of leadership and the player driven leadership, 1863 01:28:53,640 --> 01:28:56,920 Speaker 1: not my leadership, their leadership, and they take a lot 1864 01:28:56,960 --> 01:28:59,880 Speaker 1: of pride in their work. Quarterback Josh Allen the off 1865 01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:03,519 Speaker 1: bench did not let up against Miami. We still we 1866 01:29:03,560 --> 01:29:05,640 Speaker 1: don't want to get content in what we do. M 1867 01:29:06,040 --> 01:29:08,760 Speaker 1: you know, being up however we were. You know, they 1868 01:29:08,800 --> 01:29:11,400 Speaker 1: got a good quarterback over day. That's you know, no 1869 01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:14,479 Speaker 1: stranger to being in those types of situations and railing 1870 01:29:14,479 --> 01:29:16,640 Speaker 1: a team and bringing them back. So we understood what 1871 01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:19,439 Speaker 1: we had to do. Um and wanted can you continue 1872 01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:21,000 Speaker 1: to move the ball and try to put put up 1873 01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:22,960 Speaker 1: as many points as we um as we could and 1874 01:29:23,280 --> 01:29:24,840 Speaker 1: um and I said, that's what we try to do. 1875 01:29:25,760 --> 01:29:28,799 Speaker 1: Running Back Devin Singletary on his role and the scoring 1876 01:29:28,880 --> 01:29:32,160 Speaker 1: output against the Dolphins, it was big. You know, we 1877 01:29:32,280 --> 01:29:34,960 Speaker 1: wanted to get past, you know, all the mistakes that 1878 01:29:35,040 --> 01:29:36,599 Speaker 1: we had. We wanted to get rolling. And the day 1879 01:29:36,600 --> 01:29:38,880 Speaker 1: we got rolling. Do you feel more of a rhythm 1880 01:29:38,960 --> 01:29:42,439 Speaker 1: being more involved like that? Um, I want to say that. 1881 01:29:42,720 --> 01:29:44,519 Speaker 1: I feel like I was always in a good rhythm, 1882 01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:47,920 Speaker 1: you know, but to day to day was fun. Light 1883 01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:50,560 Speaker 1: backer Tremaine Edmonds on the message he delivered to the 1884 01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:53,240 Speaker 1: team on Saturday night, what I was feeling at the 1885 01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:55,720 Speaker 1: moment and those guys got trust in me, man, So 1886 01:29:55,880 --> 01:29:57,960 Speaker 1: you know, me being a leader, you know, I just 1887 01:29:58,040 --> 01:30:00,080 Speaker 1: wanted to take my leadership of step forward and just 1888 01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:01,400 Speaker 1: tart to the team. And I don't want to really 1889 01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:04,640 Speaker 1: get into details because you know, it's it's really for 1890 01:30:04,760 --> 01:30:06,439 Speaker 1: the team, you know, it's really for the players. You know. 1891 01:30:06,479 --> 01:30:09,360 Speaker 1: I wanted to express that with the players. So you know, 1892 01:30:09,400 --> 01:30:11,040 Speaker 1: I think the guy's hurting me. Man. I like the 1893 01:30:11,080 --> 01:30:14,560 Speaker 1: way they responded today. It is you stepping out of 1894 01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:18,360 Speaker 1: your comfort zone or yeah yeah. I mean, you know 1895 01:30:18,439 --> 01:30:20,840 Speaker 1: a lot of guys they look at me as a 1896 01:30:20,880 --> 01:30:23,479 Speaker 1: laid back guy. I am, though, but uh, I mean, 1897 01:30:23,720 --> 01:30:25,160 Speaker 1: you know, I wouldn't say it's that my comforts and 1898 01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:26,519 Speaker 1: a lot of guys just don't look at me like that, 1899 01:30:26,640 --> 01:30:29,320 Speaker 1: so they probably think it is. But it's always been 1900 01:30:29,360 --> 01:30:30,680 Speaker 1: in me, man, So I just wanted to express it 1901 01:30:30,760 --> 01:30:32,640 Speaker 1: to my teammates. I just wanted them to know, and 1902 01:30:32,960 --> 01:30:35,040 Speaker 1: I mean they responded well, and I can't think of 1903 01:30:35,160 --> 01:30:39,160 Speaker 1: the know right back here, Lorenzo Alexander A big bounce 1904 01:30:39,240 --> 01:30:42,599 Speaker 1: back game for the Bills. I mean it's huge. I mean, obviously, 1905 01:30:42,680 --> 01:30:44,799 Speaker 1: you know, get your confidence back because it wasn't perfect 1906 01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:47,759 Speaker 1: act the albums and the kickoff a turn game, kickoff 1907 01:30:48,439 --> 01:30:51,080 Speaker 1: kickoff game from my point wasn't wasn't very good today. 1908 01:30:51,160 --> 01:30:54,080 Speaker 1: But it's huge. I mean, anytime you win games, you know, 1909 01:30:54,200 --> 01:30:57,000 Speaker 1: you you get back on to the path where you 1910 01:30:57,040 --> 01:30:59,000 Speaker 1: want to go. And you never want to get on 1911 01:30:59,040 --> 01:31:00,840 Speaker 1: a losing streak. And so we lose one. To be 1912 01:31:00,880 --> 01:31:02,280 Speaker 1: able to bounce back a huge for us and we 1913 01:31:02,320 --> 01:31:04,320 Speaker 1: could get back on the winning streak and stack some 1914 01:31:04,400 --> 01:31:06,680 Speaker 1: games up. Real confidence, as we could tell you on 1915 01:31:06,840 --> 01:31:11,400 Speaker 1: this path trying to qualify for the playoffs. Safety Micah 1916 01:31:11,479 --> 01:31:15,960 Speaker 1: High getting consistent pressure on quarterback Ryan pitch Backory, you know, 1917 01:31:16,120 --> 01:31:19,080 Speaker 1: just just speeding up the quarterback a little bit. You know, 1918 01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:20,479 Speaker 1: we felt like we had to get pressure on him 1919 01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:22,800 Speaker 1: in the back ending the ball was gonna come out. 1920 01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:24,200 Speaker 1: You know, we felt like we gave him some plays 1921 01:31:24,200 --> 01:31:27,120 Speaker 1: in the back end, but uh, easily correctable. Um, just 1922 01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:29,080 Speaker 1: a good job by the whether the front today, just 1923 01:31:29,120 --> 01:31:31,519 Speaker 1: getting out to the quarterback. And I don't know how 1924 01:31:31,560 --> 01:31:34,200 Speaker 1: many secks to have, but somebody that had a lot seven. Yeah, 1925 01:31:34,280 --> 01:31:36,880 Speaker 1: that's about they said, a good job of geting pressure 1926 01:31:36,880 --> 01:31:41,640 Speaker 1: on defensive tackle. Jordan phillups on the Bill's defensive performance 1927 01:31:41,760 --> 01:31:44,200 Speaker 1: against Miami. But like Miami was kind of the one 1928 01:31:45,080 --> 01:31:47,599 Speaker 1: I started, started the Russian attack and we came out there. 1929 01:31:47,600 --> 01:31:49,360 Speaker 1: We shut him down today in the run. How was 1930 01:31:49,360 --> 01:31:51,360 Speaker 1: our goal? Not only did we shut him down the 1931 01:31:51,439 --> 01:31:54,960 Speaker 1: round we have seven sexs. How much does it mean 1932 01:31:55,040 --> 01:31:57,640 Speaker 1: for you to do that here?

Good afternoon, Chris, Welcome to the show. Happy 1982 01:34:37,760 --> 01:34:39,719 Speaker 1: to have you here today. Good to be here, Murph. 1983 01:34:40,160 --> 01:34:42,160 Speaker 1: What have you been writing? What's up? I know you 1984 01:34:42,280 --> 01:34:44,479 Speaker 1: work hard. This is the thing. So I worked during 1985 01:34:44,479 --> 01:34:46,000 Speaker 1: the game pretty much, and you're working during the game, 1986 01:34:46,040 --> 01:34:48,360 Speaker 1: but game over, I don't have a whole lot to do, 1987 01:34:48,479 --> 01:34:50,479 Speaker 1: and you just get cranking right as soon as the 1988 01:34:50,960 --> 01:34:52,960 Speaker 1: final gun goes, don't you. I mean, you see this 1989 01:34:53,000 --> 01:34:54,720 Speaker 1: guy work after game. It's guy I was telling you. 1990 01:34:54,920 --> 01:34:57,680 Speaker 1: I was very happy the playless slightly delayed taking off 1991 01:34:57,680 --> 01:35:00,040 Speaker 1: because I usually try to send everything in before we 1992 01:35:00,160 --> 01:35:03,200 Speaker 1: take off. So it's from the final gun to get well, 1993 01:35:03,360 --> 01:35:04,960 Speaker 1: I should say, after I do the interviews in the 1994 01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:08,360 Speaker 1: locker room and hop on the bus. It's it's deadline time. 1995 01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:11,280 Speaker 1: But there's like a bus on the plan. Yeah. There's 1996 01:35:11,320 --> 01:35:13,200 Speaker 1: kind of a sick thrill to it though too. It's like, 1997 01:35:13,800 --> 01:35:18,360 Speaker 1: because i've i've i've never been unsuccessful in beating the 1998 01:35:18,439 --> 01:35:22,120 Speaker 1: plane off the ground with everything stuff well, well with 1999 01:35:22,240 --> 01:35:25,439 Speaker 1: the I have to have my first story in before 2000 01:35:25,920 --> 01:35:28,040 Speaker 1: we take off, which is usually what an hour and 2001 01:35:28,080 --> 01:35:30,639 Speaker 1: a half after the game. It usually wheels up around 2002 01:35:30,680 --> 01:35:34,160 Speaker 1: five thirty wheels up are usually five six after kickoff. Yeah, 2003 01:35:35,320 --> 01:35:37,920 Speaker 1: so after kickoff, Yes, I'm talking about end of the game, 2004 01:35:38,479 --> 01:35:40,200 Speaker 1: and it's about an hour and a half to two 2005 01:35:40,280 --> 01:35:43,120 Speaker 1: hours the games. If the game's three fifteen, you get 2006 01:35:43,160 --> 01:35:46,080 Speaker 1: an hour and forty five or so. Yeah, so that's 2007 01:35:46,120 --> 01:35:48,920 Speaker 1: the crunch time where but there's a sick thrill to 2008 01:35:49,479 --> 01:35:51,880 Speaker 1: beating the deadline. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm a 2009 01:35:51,880 --> 01:35:55,000 Speaker 1: little hyper competitive with that. Chris is with us. You 2010 01:35:55,080 --> 01:35:57,000 Speaker 1: mentioned a moment ago when you walked in the studio here. 2011 01:35:57,040 --> 01:35:58,920 Speaker 1: How I mean, there's a lot to chew on on 2012 01:35:59,080 --> 01:36:01,960 Speaker 1: yesterday's game and win for the Bills. But Miami's approach 2013 01:36:02,040 --> 01:36:04,760 Speaker 1: you thought was interesting defensively in yesterday's games. Look, I 2014 01:36:04,880 --> 01:36:06,880 Speaker 1: watched some of their games going into this game, and 2015 01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:10,360 Speaker 1: I knew that sub package wise, they loved to play 2016 01:36:10,439 --> 01:36:15,120 Speaker 1: that dime package with six dbs. Occasionally they would play seven. 2017 01:36:15,520 --> 01:36:18,960 Speaker 1: Yesterday on the first two third down plays for the Bills, 2018 01:36:19,080 --> 01:36:21,519 Speaker 1: they went. I wrote it down because this was I mean, 2019 01:36:21,600 --> 01:36:24,320 Speaker 1: I was I was amazed, But I've never seen it before, Like, 2020 01:36:24,640 --> 01:36:26,559 Speaker 1: even with all the stuff that Belichick did over the years, 2021 01:36:26,600 --> 01:36:29,960 Speaker 1: I've never seen this. So the first third down, one 2022 01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:34,080 Speaker 1: defensive lineman, two linebackers, eight defensive backs on the field, 2023 01:36:34,400 --> 01:36:37,960 Speaker 1: and then the next one was two d lineman, two linebackers, 2024 01:36:38,000 --> 01:36:42,080 Speaker 1: and seven defensive backs, which they've done occasionally. But I 2025 01:36:42,320 --> 01:36:44,960 Speaker 1: was like, I mean, it was out of a movie 2026 01:36:45,200 --> 01:36:49,240 Speaker 1: like where eight defensive backs. Like I couldn't believe it, Like, 2027 01:36:50,240 --> 01:36:51,840 Speaker 1: does that tell you something about what they thought of 2028 01:36:51,920 --> 01:36:54,479 Speaker 1: Josh can? I think it tells you something about what 2029 01:36:54,520 --> 01:36:56,160 Speaker 1: they thought that they were defensive backs. They don't have 2030 01:36:56,200 --> 01:36:58,639 Speaker 1: any real good ones they all had, so putting more 2031 01:36:58,680 --> 01:37:02,439 Speaker 1: on the field is better. That's what sty wanted to 2032 01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:05,479 Speaker 1: flood the place with traffic, right, Those in the opposite 2033 01:37:05,560 --> 01:37:07,920 Speaker 1: might not like different defensive front. But the ironic thing 2034 01:37:08,120 --> 01:37:12,200 Speaker 1: was then the ironic thing to me was on that 2035 01:37:12,360 --> 01:37:15,160 Speaker 1: first third down with the eight defensive backs, they send 2036 01:37:15,240 --> 01:37:18,200 Speaker 1: five of them like they like it was like a 2037 01:37:18,280 --> 01:37:20,560 Speaker 1: six man rush. They dropped a linebacker. It's like, you 2038 01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:22,960 Speaker 1: got eight linebackers on the field or eight dbs on 2039 01:37:23,000 --> 01:37:25,120 Speaker 1: the field. What are you sending the dbs for go 2040 01:37:25,360 --> 01:37:28,639 Speaker 1: send the linebacker and drop your coverage man into coverage. 2041 01:37:28,640 --> 01:37:30,720 Speaker 1: It's desperation, right, A bad team, I guess, I mean, 2042 01:37:30,760 --> 01:37:33,160 Speaker 1: I guess they're just trying anything. Spin the dial and 2043 01:37:33,560 --> 01:37:35,680 Speaker 1: you know whatever comes up. Ye oh yeah, let's try that. 2044 01:37:35,800 --> 01:37:37,639 Speaker 1: And it was evident to me that they are doing 2045 01:37:37,680 --> 01:37:41,559 Speaker 1: a lot of experimentation because here's Julian Davenport, the player 2046 01:37:41,600 --> 01:37:43,479 Speaker 1: they got in the trade with Houston on the Laramie 2047 01:37:43,520 --> 01:37:46,080 Speaker 1: Tunsel deal, an offensive tackle coming back to them. He 2048 01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:48,679 Speaker 1: goes on IR week after week one with an injury. 2049 01:37:49,240 --> 01:37:52,080 Speaker 1: This is his first week off of IR and he's 2050 01:37:52,120 --> 01:37:54,280 Speaker 1: on the field like at the beginning of the game 2051 01:37:54,320 --> 01:37:57,439 Speaker 1: at left tackle. Yeah. And I mean, I know he's played, 2052 01:37:57,520 --> 01:37:59,880 Speaker 1: he's got playing experience in the league, but the guy 2053 01:38:00,120 --> 01:38:03,120 Speaker 1: isn't played in nine weeks and they just throw them 2054 01:38:03,160 --> 01:38:05,240 Speaker 1: in the deep end to the pool and say go 2055 01:38:05,400 --> 01:38:09,200 Speaker 1: get them. It was surprised a lot. You can kind 2056 01:38:09,200 --> 01:38:11,400 Speaker 1: of get an idea of what they were thinking they 2057 01:38:11,439 --> 01:38:13,760 Speaker 1: are they're doing well. This Bills team did it a 2058 01:38:13,800 --> 01:38:15,679 Speaker 1: little bit last year, trying a lot of different guys. 2059 01:38:16,160 --> 01:38:18,000 Speaker 1: Robert Foster gets on the field offense, and you started 2060 01:38:18,040 --> 01:38:19,800 Speaker 1: we did it on the offensive side last year. They're 2061 01:38:19,800 --> 01:38:22,679 Speaker 1: doing it on the defensive side this year in Miami also, 2062 01:38:22,760 --> 01:38:25,200 Speaker 1: you know, surprise on side. I mean they're rolling the 2063 01:38:25,320 --> 01:38:27,760 Speaker 1: dice trying to keep that game close, and you know, 2064 01:38:27,920 --> 01:38:29,280 Speaker 1: all in all, I just couldn't get it. Yeah, I 2065 01:38:29,280 --> 01:38:31,560 Speaker 1: mean I understand the impetus, believe me, I do, but 2066 01:38:31,640 --> 01:38:34,040 Speaker 1: I just that was that was super foreign to me, 2067 01:38:34,120 --> 01:38:36,920 Speaker 1: and I didn't It didn't compute for it may give him, 2068 01:38:37,160 --> 01:38:39,720 Speaker 1: It may give him some help down the line in 2069 01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:43,600 Speaker 1: weeks coming, because they may you know, teams have to 2070 01:38:43,640 --> 01:38:45,960 Speaker 1: start dealing with it, you know there, Okay, well how 2071 01:38:46,000 --> 01:38:47,519 Speaker 1: often they going to do this and what do they 2072 01:38:47,560 --> 01:38:48,720 Speaker 1: get out of it and why they do it? And 2073 01:38:48,760 --> 01:38:51,400 Speaker 1: we got to start figuring that. I'll spending time thinking 2074 01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:53,240 Speaker 1: about it. It had me interested in the game, Like 2075 01:38:53,360 --> 01:38:55,240 Speaker 1: I was even more dialed in because of that, because 2076 01:38:55,240 --> 01:38:57,160 Speaker 1: I you know, it got out of hand early there 2077 01:38:57,160 --> 01:38:59,439 Speaker 1: it's twenty three to seven, but I was kind of 2078 01:38:59,640 --> 01:39:01,720 Speaker 1: starting to look for that different stuff. I was like, well, 2079 01:39:01,720 --> 01:39:04,120 Speaker 1: what else do we have today? Made it interesting in 2080 01:39:04,240 --> 01:39:05,960 Speaker 1: a weird way. Chris Brown is with us. If you 2081 01:39:06,040 --> 01:39:08,160 Speaker 1: have comments, questions, you can phone him in eight three 2082 01:39:08,640 --> 01:39:12,960 Speaker 1: fifty total three eight fifty two five fifty Josh Allen 2083 01:39:13,080 --> 01:39:16,200 Speaker 1: was just here last hour, Chris I would argue that 2084 01:39:16,280 --> 01:39:17,880 Speaker 1: might have been his best game in the Builds uniform 2085 01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:21,479 Speaker 1: yesterday as playing Miami. To know, oh yeah, it was 2086 01:39:21,560 --> 01:39:24,479 Speaker 1: funny because right before about what was it, maybe about 2087 01:39:24,560 --> 01:39:25,960 Speaker 1: nine or ten in the morning, you know, I was 2088 01:39:25,960 --> 01:39:29,639 Speaker 1: at the stadium already, and I tweeted out just under 2089 01:39:29,680 --> 01:39:32,200 Speaker 1: a year ago or just over a year, just less 2090 01:39:32,200 --> 01:39:34,960 Speaker 1: than a year ago, Josh Allen was in this building 2091 01:39:35,320 --> 01:39:37,920 Speaker 1: and he put the team on his back and almost 2092 01:39:37,960 --> 01:39:40,080 Speaker 1: won a football game and came within about a foot 2093 01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:42,720 Speaker 1: of completing a game winning touchdown pass with a minute left. 2094 01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:47,879 Speaker 1: Charles Clay and I've talked about that, accounted and accounted 2095 01:39:47,920 --> 01:39:49,559 Speaker 1: for three hundred and fifty two of the team's four 2096 01:39:49,680 --> 01:39:52,920 Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen total yards and four touchdowns. What are 2097 01:39:52,960 --> 01:39:55,920 Speaker 1: we going to get today? And then after the game, 2098 01:39:57,120 --> 01:40:00,760 Speaker 1: before we took off, I retweeted my own tweet and 2099 01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:04,760 Speaker 1: said more of the same because I don't know what 2100 01:40:04,880 --> 01:40:06,840 Speaker 1: it is about Miami, but he gets up for them, 2101 01:40:06,880 --> 01:40:09,680 Speaker 1: and I know Miami's a down club too, so you 2102 01:40:09,680 --> 01:40:13,040 Speaker 1: shouldn't be tremendously surprised if if Josh has a fat 2103 01:40:13,120 --> 01:40:16,000 Speaker 1: day against an opponent like this. He should, He should, 2104 01:40:17,160 --> 01:40:21,320 Speaker 1: But I think there were decisive answers yesterday by him, 2105 01:40:22,080 --> 01:40:24,320 Speaker 1: and I think we're starting to see and I hope 2106 01:40:24,360 --> 01:40:26,320 Speaker 1: this is the case. I think we're starting to see 2107 01:40:27,800 --> 01:40:33,680 Speaker 1: him pairing up the pre snap recognition with what to 2108 01:40:33,800 --> 01:40:37,760 Speaker 1: do post snap. And that was where the disconnect was 2109 01:40:38,439 --> 01:40:43,240 Speaker 1: last week against Cleveland, and Cleveland sent numbers at him 2110 01:40:43,560 --> 01:40:47,439 Speaker 1: on third in medium and he couldn't convert, and as 2111 01:40:47,479 --> 01:40:49,800 Speaker 1: a result, the offense couldn't stay on the field. And 2112 01:40:49,880 --> 01:40:52,120 Speaker 1: it wasn't all him. There was some other miscues elsewhere 2113 01:40:52,160 --> 01:40:55,839 Speaker 1: on the offense. Yesterday, they had almost no third mediums. 2114 01:40:56,439 --> 01:41:01,360 Speaker 1: They had eight third in longs. They only converted three 2115 01:41:01,439 --> 01:41:03,840 Speaker 1: of them, but two of them were for touchdowns, the 2116 01:41:04,000 --> 01:41:07,240 Speaker 1: Dawson Knox touchdown and the John Brown touchdown. I believe 2117 01:41:07,280 --> 01:41:12,439 Speaker 1: the second one were third and long conversions. So he 2118 01:41:12,600 --> 01:41:15,920 Speaker 1: had the answers, the best answers, at the right times 2119 01:41:16,120 --> 01:41:18,799 Speaker 1: yesterday and it made a gigantic difference in the football. 2120 01:41:18,920 --> 01:41:21,280 Speaker 1: One other third and long was his run in for 2121 01:41:21,320 --> 01:41:23,519 Speaker 1: the heat reminded us of that right third down on 2122 01:41:23,640 --> 01:41:26,679 Speaker 1: his bootleg into not bootleg, but scramble into the zone 2123 01:41:26,680 --> 01:41:28,519 Speaker 1: as well. So yeah, that was a third night, So 2124 01:41:28,760 --> 01:41:30,679 Speaker 1: third and eight on the nine or something like that. Yeah, 2125 01:41:30,960 --> 01:41:36,960 Speaker 1: So I was encouraged to see you could tell there 2126 01:41:37,040 --> 01:41:41,200 Speaker 1: was confidence self confidence there in pulling the trigger and 2127 01:41:41,320 --> 01:41:45,479 Speaker 1: doing all those things. And I think post snap he 2128 01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:49,200 Speaker 1: had better answers. And Miami tried some of what Cleveland 2129 01:41:49,240 --> 01:41:52,280 Speaker 1: did last week. You know, they sent six, they would 2130 01:41:52,320 --> 01:41:54,840 Speaker 1: send They sent seven maybe once or twice, I think, 2131 01:41:55,520 --> 01:41:58,840 Speaker 1: and the Bills had answers in the game plan for 2132 01:41:59,000 --> 01:42:02,920 Speaker 1: Josh with one step drop, get it out quick. There 2133 01:42:03,040 --> 01:42:05,280 Speaker 1: was one play I remember distinctly. It was a quick 2134 01:42:05,360 --> 01:42:08,599 Speaker 1: hitter to the left to John Brown. He takes one step, bang, 2135 01:42:08,720 --> 01:42:11,479 Speaker 1: it's out to John Brown. And the Dolphins were trying 2136 01:42:11,520 --> 01:42:13,840 Speaker 1: to rush six on that play. So you know, that's 2137 01:42:13,880 --> 01:42:16,559 Speaker 1: the in vogue thing defensively now because New England's been 2138 01:42:16,600 --> 01:42:19,120 Speaker 1: so successful with it, where they'll send six and seven 2139 01:42:19,200 --> 01:42:22,599 Speaker 1: rushers and play cover zero on the back end and say, 2140 01:42:22,720 --> 01:42:25,320 Speaker 1: try to beat us, and because their cover players are 2141 01:42:25,360 --> 01:42:28,719 Speaker 1: so good, the rush gets there, the quarterbacks fumbling around 2142 01:42:28,760 --> 01:42:32,320 Speaker 1: looking for answers, and the Patriots defense is off the field. Well, 2143 01:42:32,560 --> 01:42:35,080 Speaker 1: Cleveland's borrowed it, and about a half a dozen other 2144 01:42:35,160 --> 01:42:38,080 Speaker 1: teams are employing the same practice. Let's send too many 2145 01:42:38,120 --> 01:42:39,799 Speaker 1: men for them to block and see if the quarterback 2146 01:42:39,840 --> 01:42:41,599 Speaker 1: can figure it out, especially a lot of these young 2147 01:42:41,680 --> 01:42:44,920 Speaker 1: quarterbacks who are playing now. So the Bills, to their credit, 2148 01:42:45,479 --> 01:42:48,920 Speaker 1: anticipated that from the Dolphins and had answers for Josh, 2149 01:42:49,200 --> 01:42:52,040 Speaker 1: and then Josh executed. We got phone lines Oba if 2150 01:42:52,040 --> 01:42:53,840 Speaker 1: we have a comment or question. While Chris Brown is 2151 01:42:53,840 --> 01:42:56,760 Speaker 1: with US Bills Insider from Buffalo Bills dot Com, number 2152 01:42:56,800 --> 01:43:00,840 Speaker 1: to call eight fifty toll free one eight eight fifty 2153 01:43:00,880 --> 01:43:03,400 Speaker 1: two five fifty. Bryan Dabo will meet with the media 2154 01:43:03,400 --> 01:43:05,960 Speaker 1: at four thirty this afternoon. He will get asked this question. 2155 01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:09,080 Speaker 1: But I ask you first, Chris, what impact, if any, 2156 01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:12,639 Speaker 1: what significant impact did it have to have him upstairs 2157 01:43:12,760 --> 01:43:15,080 Speaker 1: calling plays as opposed to the field level. I think 2158 01:43:15,120 --> 01:43:18,559 Speaker 1: it was a first person account of what he's seeing 2159 01:43:18,680 --> 01:43:21,360 Speaker 1: out there on the field. I don't think there's any question, 2160 01:43:22,280 --> 01:43:25,400 Speaker 1: and Coach McDermot admitted this in the postgame press conference yesterday, 2161 01:43:25,800 --> 01:43:28,559 Speaker 1: because he's been upstairs as a defensive play caller himself. 2162 01:43:28,960 --> 01:43:32,120 Speaker 1: When you are upstairs, you see everything better, and I 2163 01:43:32,280 --> 01:43:35,240 Speaker 1: think it has a positive effect on what you call 2164 01:43:35,400 --> 01:43:37,680 Speaker 1: on the next series or the series after that, or 2165 01:43:37,880 --> 01:43:41,200 Speaker 1: you might spot something that says that you'll see up 2166 01:43:41,280 --> 01:43:44,639 Speaker 1: there that you just can't see on the sideline. Perfect 2167 01:43:44,680 --> 01:43:48,320 Speaker 1: example of that is when a coach calls a play 2168 01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:53,120 Speaker 1: it's unsuccessful, but it was there to be made, Like 2169 01:43:53,760 --> 01:43:56,760 Speaker 1: we had them beat on this. We can come back 2170 01:43:56,840 --> 01:43:59,519 Speaker 1: to that later in the game because I can see 2171 01:43:59,560 --> 01:44:02,519 Speaker 1: how we want on that play in terms of the 2172 01:44:02,680 --> 01:44:05,719 Speaker 1: matchup and in terms of maybe the separation you wanted 2173 01:44:05,800 --> 01:44:09,040 Speaker 1: on a route scheme, but the quarterback either a just 2174 01:44:09,160 --> 01:44:11,599 Speaker 1: didn't see him or went somewhere else with the ball. 2175 01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:15,080 Speaker 1: If you're upstairs, you can see that. If that's happening 2176 01:44:15,160 --> 01:44:17,479 Speaker 1: on the far sideline and you're down on the field, 2177 01:44:18,080 --> 01:44:21,120 Speaker 1: you may not see how well your player one on that. 2178 01:44:21,280 --> 01:44:23,680 Speaker 1: And yes, you can count on other guys that you 2179 01:44:23,760 --> 01:44:25,479 Speaker 1: have in the booth to be your eyes in this guy. 2180 01:44:25,560 --> 01:44:27,320 Speaker 1: But I think there's a difference there. When it's a 2181 01:44:27,400 --> 01:44:30,680 Speaker 1: first hand account of what you're looking at and then 2182 01:44:30,760 --> 01:44:32,640 Speaker 1: thinking about what you might want to call later in 2183 01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:35,120 Speaker 1: the game, it makes a difference. I think, Well, I'll 2184 01:44:35,120 --> 01:44:38,880 Speaker 1: tell you this too, because coaches spend their life predicted 2185 01:44:38,920 --> 01:44:42,960 Speaker 1: coordinators and the guys with dables I resume and his 2186 01:44:43,240 --> 01:44:46,439 Speaker 1: years of service in the league in college and watching film. 2187 01:44:46,520 --> 01:44:53,120 Speaker 1: These guys they watch so much film it would make 2188 01:44:53,200 --> 01:44:55,800 Speaker 1: the rest of us sick. So what happens is they 2189 01:44:55,880 --> 01:44:59,240 Speaker 1: get good at it, obviously, and they don't need to 2190 01:44:59,360 --> 01:45:01,080 Speaker 1: run it back as many times as the rest of 2191 01:45:01,120 --> 01:45:03,160 Speaker 1: us would to check out all this stuff. They see 2192 01:45:03,360 --> 01:45:05,760 Speaker 1: things on the first time through nobody else is able 2193 01:45:05,800 --> 01:45:07,840 Speaker 1: to catch. So when they watch a game in real 2194 01:45:07,920 --> 01:45:11,160 Speaker 1: time from the sky like they would in film study, 2195 01:45:11,200 --> 01:45:13,840 Speaker 1: it's the same, Perspee, it's the same. They see it 2196 01:45:14,320 --> 01:45:17,639 Speaker 1: better than better than you can imagine. And I agree 2197 01:45:17,680 --> 01:45:19,920 Speaker 1: with you, it makes when you're used to doing it 2198 01:45:20,080 --> 01:45:23,519 Speaker 1: a ton. Certainly, you get some benefit from being on 2199 01:45:23,600 --> 01:45:25,080 Speaker 1: the field where you can look the quarterback in the 2200 01:45:25,120 --> 01:45:26,680 Speaker 1: eye and say, hey, here's what I'm thinking, here's what 2201 01:45:26,760 --> 01:45:29,519 Speaker 1: we're gonna do. But I think when you get upstairs 2202 01:45:29,560 --> 01:45:31,880 Speaker 1: and you see you can see the bigger picture and 2203 01:45:32,040 --> 01:45:34,760 Speaker 1: you can also make inferences about what the other team 2204 01:45:34,840 --> 01:45:36,800 Speaker 1: sees in you. This is what they're doing, and here 2205 01:45:36,960 --> 01:45:39,519 Speaker 1: we know why they're doing it now, and that'll give you. 2206 01:45:39,640 --> 01:45:43,280 Speaker 1: That gives those guys inside, moment to moment, rather than 2207 01:45:43,760 --> 01:45:45,599 Speaker 1: what you see up there, you know, well what they 2208 01:45:45,640 --> 01:45:48,200 Speaker 1: did was and then explaining it. So it's and it's 2209 01:45:48,240 --> 01:45:50,840 Speaker 1: just that much quicker of a process. And I'm going 2210 01:45:50,880 --> 01:45:54,240 Speaker 1: to give credit to the coaching staff here because coach McDermott, 2211 01:45:54,280 --> 01:45:57,320 Speaker 1: coach Table, they're practicing what they preach. You know, they 2212 01:45:57,640 --> 01:46:00,560 Speaker 1: preach this process and daily self improve and trying to 2213 01:46:00,600 --> 01:46:03,320 Speaker 1: get better each and every week. And they say it 2214 01:46:03,400 --> 01:46:05,400 Speaker 1: doesn't just apply to the players, it applies to the 2215 01:46:05,439 --> 01:46:08,120 Speaker 1: coaches as well. I have to believe that Dabel and 2216 01:46:08,240 --> 01:46:10,880 Speaker 1: McDermott sat down and said, what can we do to 2217 01:46:11,040 --> 01:46:13,840 Speaker 1: be better for our players so they can execute more 2218 01:46:13,880 --> 01:46:16,920 Speaker 1: effectively on the field. And I'll I'll bet dollars to 2219 01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:20,519 Speaker 1: donuts that either Dabl or McDermott raise this as a 2220 01:46:20,600 --> 01:46:24,680 Speaker 1: potential option to be more effective play callers and to 2221 01:46:25,400 --> 01:46:28,160 Speaker 1: recognize things that they can take advantage of that much 2222 01:46:28,240 --> 01:46:31,360 Speaker 1: better from being up stairs and getting the eye in 2223 01:46:31,400 --> 01:46:34,160 Speaker 1: the sky perspective. And I mean, look at what we 2224 01:46:34,280 --> 01:46:38,240 Speaker 1: got again, an opponent that's you know, not making a 2225 01:46:38,280 --> 01:46:40,599 Speaker 1: lot of hay these days in the league. But still 2226 01:46:40,640 --> 01:46:43,400 Speaker 1: in all I think it provided them with a shot 2227 01:46:43,479 --> 01:46:46,520 Speaker 1: in the arm in terms of giving them more opportunities 2228 01:46:46,600 --> 01:46:49,800 Speaker 1: to succeed not only with the initial game plan, but 2229 01:46:49,960 --> 01:46:52,680 Speaker 1: then pivoting off of that based on what Miami was doing. 2230 01:46:52,760 --> 01:46:56,280 Speaker 1: Defensively mentioned what do you lose when you move upstairs? 2231 01:46:56,800 --> 01:46:59,400 Speaker 1: You lose that fai face contact. Right, the young quarterback 2232 01:46:59,439 --> 01:47:02,320 Speaker 1: and maybe twenty one starts into his NFL career, Josh 2233 01:47:02,360 --> 01:47:04,960 Speaker 1: Allen needs that bless right. I would yeah, I would 2234 01:47:05,000 --> 01:47:07,760 Speaker 1: say that's kind of what made them comfortable to make 2235 01:47:07,840 --> 01:47:10,040 Speaker 1: this kind of move, because last year that was the 2236 01:47:10,120 --> 01:47:12,680 Speaker 1: number one reason why Davil said he wanted to be downstairs. 2237 01:47:12,720 --> 01:47:14,439 Speaker 1: He said, I wanted to be able to look Josh 2238 01:47:14,520 --> 01:47:16,799 Speaker 1: in the eye, get a feel for what he's feeling. 2239 01:47:17,120 --> 01:47:19,160 Speaker 1: Does he look like he's a deer in the headlights? 2240 01:47:19,439 --> 01:47:21,519 Speaker 1: Does he feel good? He feels like he's in a rhythm. 2241 01:47:22,160 --> 01:47:24,360 Speaker 1: You get that with the body language and the direct 2242 01:47:24,439 --> 01:47:27,320 Speaker 1: face to face interaction. But now where twenty one starts in, 2243 01:47:28,280 --> 01:47:31,120 Speaker 1: there's a relationship that's been built there between those two men, 2244 01:47:31,840 --> 01:47:35,080 Speaker 1: and I think that just by the sound of Josh's 2245 01:47:35,160 --> 01:47:38,840 Speaker 1: voice now, Brian can probably get a pretty good handle 2246 01:47:38,920 --> 01:47:42,160 Speaker 1: on what Josh is thinking, feeling, how you know, how 2247 01:47:42,280 --> 01:47:44,840 Speaker 1: he is. You know, he can probably sense that in 2248 01:47:45,000 --> 01:47:46,920 Speaker 1: him better now just from being around him for the 2249 01:47:46,960 --> 01:47:49,719 Speaker 1: better part of a calendar year. So I think they said, 2250 01:47:50,320 --> 01:47:52,759 Speaker 1: what's the less you're a two evils and what stands 2251 01:47:52,800 --> 01:47:55,800 Speaker 1: to benefit us more? It's me being upstairs and I'll 2252 01:47:55,840 --> 01:47:57,960 Speaker 1: just talk to Josh on the phone in between series. 2253 01:47:58,080 --> 01:47:59,640 Speaker 1: I think one of the things, too, is probably not 2254 01:48:00,200 --> 01:48:02,439 Speaker 1: one simple answer to why they made this move. There's 2255 01:48:02,439 --> 01:48:04,880 Speaker 1: probably things pointed to it. Because when you go back 2256 01:48:04,880 --> 01:48:08,240 Speaker 1: and look at games you've you've coached, and you're going 2257 01:48:08,280 --> 01:48:10,080 Speaker 1: through it with your quarterback and your head coach and 2258 01:48:10,160 --> 01:48:13,280 Speaker 1: you're in a dark room and then there's like eight 2259 01:48:13,400 --> 01:48:16,439 Speaker 1: guys in the room. It's the quarterbacks, the offensive staff, 2260 01:48:17,040 --> 01:48:20,080 Speaker 1: and the head coach maybe, and you say, well, we 2261 01:48:20,200 --> 01:48:23,320 Speaker 1: called this play because this is this play right here, 2262 01:48:23,479 --> 01:48:25,439 Speaker 1: You'll they'll look at it and they'll say this, I 2263 01:48:25,520 --> 01:48:27,280 Speaker 1: saw this happen on the field, and I thought this 2264 01:48:27,520 --> 01:48:29,720 Speaker 1: was going on. Well from up here, I see that's 2265 01:48:29,760 --> 01:48:32,360 Speaker 1: not what was going on. Yeah, And they couldn't see it, 2266 01:48:32,479 --> 01:48:35,800 Speaker 1: and the communication from the guys upstairs was not such 2267 01:48:35,960 --> 01:48:39,080 Speaker 1: that I could figure it out. That's once they got 2268 01:48:39,160 --> 01:48:41,360 Speaker 1: us on that one, because we couldn't couldn't see what 2269 01:48:41,439 --> 01:48:42,800 Speaker 1: was going on, And they come back again, and then 2270 01:48:42,800 --> 01:48:44,720 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, then they weigh that against the 2271 01:48:44,800 --> 01:48:46,840 Speaker 1: fact that just what you said, just didn't need that 2272 01:48:46,880 --> 01:48:50,960 Speaker 1: guy down there anymore. Maybe, so they said, for well, 2273 01:48:50,960 --> 01:48:52,599 Speaker 1: we've got all this going on, let's move you back 2274 01:48:52,680 --> 01:48:54,760 Speaker 1: upstairs and get a better look at it, and then 2275 01:48:54,800 --> 01:48:56,920 Speaker 1: we won't miss that stuff that you just saw that 2276 01:48:57,000 --> 01:48:58,639 Speaker 1: one run through on the film. And I think there's 2277 01:48:58,640 --> 01:49:01,479 Speaker 1: a measure of trust now that's and established two with 2278 01:49:01,680 --> 01:49:05,360 Speaker 1: coach Dorsey, the quarterbacks coach. I think Brian Dabele has 2279 01:49:05,400 --> 01:49:09,280 Speaker 1: had Dorsey around enough to have the trust in him 2280 01:49:09,439 --> 01:49:12,880 Speaker 1: that he's in lockstep with him and that things are 2281 01:49:12,920 --> 01:49:16,280 Speaker 1: going to operate smoothly, knowing he's got to have him 2282 01:49:16,760 --> 01:49:19,120 Speaker 1: replace him on the sideline now. And here's the other 2283 01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:23,160 Speaker 1: interesting thing too. I asked Josh point blank after the game, 2284 01:49:25,640 --> 01:49:27,599 Speaker 1: when you're in the no huddle, which is what they 2285 01:49:27,640 --> 01:49:30,560 Speaker 1: went in almost exclusively in the first half, you know, 2286 01:49:31,240 --> 01:49:33,439 Speaker 1: not necessarily up tempo all the time, but it was 2287 01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:36,160 Speaker 1: no huddle pretty much the whole first half. I said, 2288 01:49:36,920 --> 01:49:39,719 Speaker 1: are you just more comfortable and are the reads easier 2289 01:49:39,800 --> 01:49:42,519 Speaker 1: for you in the no huddle to make decisions? And 2290 01:49:42,600 --> 01:49:45,760 Speaker 1: he said, yes, they are easier for me. And then 2291 01:49:46,120 --> 01:49:49,200 Speaker 1: after he talked about you know why and what he 2292 01:49:49,320 --> 01:49:51,439 Speaker 1: sees he feels he gets to his answers better in 2293 01:49:51,560 --> 01:49:57,519 Speaker 1: that kind of an approach. He finished the comment completely unsolicited, saying, 2294 01:49:57,640 --> 01:49:59,320 Speaker 1: I think that's where we're going to go from now. 2295 01:50:00,520 --> 01:50:02,880 Speaker 1: So I'm very interested to see if this is the 2296 01:50:02,920 --> 01:50:06,120 Speaker 1: approach going forward, Maybe not on a permanent basis, but 2297 01:50:06,200 --> 01:50:08,880 Speaker 1: at least for the short term. Is this how they 2298 01:50:09,000 --> 01:50:11,360 Speaker 1: keep going to keep pushing the offense forward, because it's 2299 01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:14,040 Speaker 1: hard to argue with the point production and the efficiency 2300 01:50:14,120 --> 01:50:16,479 Speaker 1: that we saw yesterday. Chris Brown Bills inside a Buffalo 2301 01:50:16,560 --> 01:50:17,960 Speaker 1: Bills dot Com. I'm with us for a couple of 2302 01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:21,719 Speaker 1: more minutes. Here. Josh's favorite target all year, including yesterday, 2303 01:50:21,800 --> 01:50:24,839 Speaker 1: John Brown nine catches yesterday. He's on pace for ninety catches. 2304 01:50:25,160 --> 01:50:27,439 Speaker 1: Only four Bills receivers have done that in a single 2305 01:50:27,479 --> 01:50:32,639 Speaker 1: season in history. He's been a and he makes consequential catches. 2306 01:50:32,640 --> 01:50:34,639 Speaker 1: It seems, you know what I mean, is that clutch? 2307 01:50:34,680 --> 01:50:36,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, but he seems to make the catches 2308 01:50:36,320 --> 01:50:39,839 Speaker 1: that matter, third downs, touchdowns. Obviously, he's a big playmaker 2309 01:50:39,920 --> 01:50:43,240 Speaker 1: for the Bills. He is, And I have to say this, 2310 01:50:43,920 --> 01:50:46,800 Speaker 1: there aren't too many receivers in the league of his 2311 01:50:47,000 --> 01:50:51,160 Speaker 1: stat of his stature height wise, I mean, you ever 2312 01:50:51,200 --> 01:50:54,160 Speaker 1: shake his hand. He does not have big hands. He 2313 01:50:54,439 --> 01:50:58,759 Speaker 1: is a sure handed received That second touchdown is ridiculous. 2314 01:50:58,840 --> 01:51:00,640 Speaker 1: Rashad Jone gets a hand on the ball at the 2315 01:51:00,720 --> 01:51:03,519 Speaker 1: second level. Yeah, he didn't break stride. He just kind 2316 01:51:03,520 --> 01:51:05,800 Speaker 1: of pulls a wobbler in like it wasn't anything. That's 2317 01:51:05,840 --> 01:51:08,240 Speaker 1: that's not an easy catch to make, Steve, just catch 2318 01:51:08,320 --> 01:51:09,960 Speaker 1: you can make. Thank you, Steve. If that ball gets 2319 01:51:10,000 --> 01:51:12,160 Speaker 1: tipped on its way to you, it's like almost you 2320 01:51:12,280 --> 01:51:16,800 Speaker 1: never catch it and have him. It was tipped early 2321 01:51:16,880 --> 01:51:18,400 Speaker 1: in the past, so he had and it was still 2322 01:51:18,479 --> 01:51:23,479 Speaker 1: on path. But you know, nine times out of a 2323 01:51:23,520 --> 01:51:26,639 Speaker 1: thousand of ball deflects and it comes off, it changes direction, 2324 01:51:27,200 --> 01:51:30,640 Speaker 1: and if it happens late, you have no shot. But 2325 01:51:30,760 --> 01:51:33,439 Speaker 1: that happened earlier. He got color crossing in front of end. 2326 01:51:34,160 --> 01:51:36,960 Speaker 1: He really that was impressive. That was really an impressive catch. 2327 01:51:36,960 --> 01:51:38,720 Speaker 1: Although it doesn't look like much on the replays, and 2328 01:51:38,760 --> 01:51:40,679 Speaker 1: I get all that that was a really tough catch 2329 01:51:40,760 --> 01:51:42,360 Speaker 1: to make. It made it look easy. And and the 2330 01:51:42,400 --> 01:51:45,000 Speaker 1: other thing too, that was enlightening to me just from 2331 01:51:45,040 --> 01:51:48,240 Speaker 1: some of the postgame commentary. Also is in asking Josh 2332 01:51:48,280 --> 01:51:52,559 Speaker 1: about John, Josh made no bones about it. We were 2333 01:51:52,640 --> 01:51:56,040 Speaker 1: trying to force feed him the football, and fourteen targets 2334 01:51:56,120 --> 01:51:58,640 Speaker 1: is strong indication of that. Now, they got a lot 2335 01:51:58,680 --> 01:52:01,920 Speaker 1: of good matchups too, because they got undrafted rookies covering 2336 01:52:02,000 --> 01:52:05,640 Speaker 1: John Brown in press man and stuff like that. But 2337 01:52:05,800 --> 01:52:08,880 Speaker 1: still in all there's there's a little bit of a 2338 01:52:08,920 --> 01:52:11,719 Speaker 1: shift there too. Now with this offense and the passing 2339 01:52:11,800 --> 01:52:15,240 Speaker 1: game they're they're going on a direct lot. Now. I 2340 01:52:15,400 --> 01:52:19,160 Speaker 1: understand most weeks John Brown has been the most targeted receiver, 2341 01:52:19,320 --> 01:52:23,040 Speaker 1: but we haven't seen fourteen targets this year. That that 2342 01:52:23,280 --> 01:52:26,880 Speaker 1: to me is significant and I'm curious to see where 2343 01:52:26,960 --> 01:52:29,160 Speaker 1: that goes. Because the number one matchup isn't going to 2344 01:52:29,200 --> 01:52:32,559 Speaker 1: be great every week, but I think in most weeks 2345 01:52:33,680 --> 01:52:38,640 Speaker 1: that's your guy and until defenses can prove otherwise the 2346 01:52:38,760 --> 01:52:41,000 Speaker 1: passing games going through him. Hey, one more thing about 2347 01:52:41,040 --> 01:52:43,200 Speaker 1: John Brown, and Josh Allen mentioned it a little while 2348 01:52:43,240 --> 01:52:45,320 Speaker 1: ago on our show. You wrote about it at Buffalo 2349 01:52:45,360 --> 01:52:47,920 Speaker 1: Bills dot com. He is a Miami area native. He 2350 01:52:48,160 --> 01:52:50,640 Speaker 1: sponsored what forty tickets he bought for youth groups and 2351 01:52:50,760 --> 01:52:53,320 Speaker 1: is a real connection to youth groups there in his hometown. 2352 01:52:53,400 --> 01:52:57,920 Speaker 1: He rewarded kids that were on their honor roll for 2353 01:52:58,320 --> 01:53:01,680 Speaker 1: at their respective schools wherever that might be. And we're like, well, 2354 01:53:01,720 --> 01:53:03,639 Speaker 1: how did you find these kids? He goes, well, they're 2355 01:53:03,640 --> 01:53:06,400 Speaker 1: friends with me on Facebook. I was like, what, like, 2356 01:53:06,760 --> 01:53:08,760 Speaker 1: you know, like an NFL wide receiver he's got, he's 2357 01:53:08,800 --> 01:53:10,720 Speaker 1: got friends on Facebook, kids that are in school that 2358 01:53:10,840 --> 01:53:13,040 Speaker 1: you know, are fans of his or whatever and follow 2359 01:53:13,120 --> 01:53:15,360 Speaker 1: him and follow his career. And I guess he just 2360 01:53:15,439 --> 01:53:17,519 Speaker 1: promised them, Hey, you make the Honor Roll, show me 2361 01:53:17,640 --> 01:53:20,400 Speaker 1: your certificate and I'll get your ticket to the game. 2362 01:53:20,520 --> 01:53:22,720 Speaker 1: Or what a world we live in, you know. I mean, 2363 01:53:25,479 --> 01:53:27,600 Speaker 1: you couldn't even get a player's jersey when I was 2364 01:53:27,680 --> 01:53:29,760 Speaker 1: growing up and they didn't exist. You couldn't get them. 2365 01:53:29,920 --> 01:53:34,400 Speaker 1: Now they're friends with him them. But I think, you know, 2366 01:53:34,520 --> 01:53:37,080 Speaker 1: and everybody that is in that locker room, when they 2367 01:53:37,120 --> 01:53:40,200 Speaker 1: talk about John Brown, they talk about what a selfless, 2368 01:53:41,280 --> 01:53:43,400 Speaker 1: team first guy that he is, which is probably what 2369 01:53:43,520 --> 01:53:46,799 Speaker 1: made him so attractive to Brandon being into Sean McDermott 2370 01:53:46,800 --> 01:53:48,599 Speaker 1: in the first place in free agency, a guy they'd 2371 01:53:48,640 --> 01:53:50,519 Speaker 1: been trying to get for the last two off seasons 2372 01:53:51,320 --> 01:53:54,800 Speaker 1: and finally got him this past March. So I think 2373 01:53:54,880 --> 01:53:57,280 Speaker 1: he is and I wrote this in the story, he 2374 01:53:57,479 --> 01:54:02,240 Speaker 1: is the antithesis of the diva receiver, the antithesis. Like 2375 01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:06,320 Speaker 1: I've told you guys twice this season, when he's been 2376 01:54:06,400 --> 01:54:09,200 Speaker 1: wrong on a route, he's come clean in the locker 2377 01:54:09,280 --> 01:54:13,679 Speaker 1: room after the game. How many number one receivers do that? Zero? 2378 01:54:14,800 --> 01:54:18,400 Speaker 1: Thank you. But that's my point. That's where John Brown 2379 01:54:18,520 --> 01:54:21,840 Speaker 1: is different. You know, he's different in so many ways. 2380 01:54:22,560 --> 01:54:26,639 Speaker 1: And he will never because I've seen media members try. 2381 01:54:27,479 --> 01:54:30,560 Speaker 1: He will never throw his quarterback under the bus. He 2382 01:54:30,640 --> 01:54:33,720 Speaker 1: will point at himself first and say my route could 2383 01:54:33,720 --> 01:54:36,080 Speaker 1: have been better or something such and such, or if 2384 01:54:36,160 --> 01:54:39,320 Speaker 1: he's wrong, he will say I was wrong. And I 2385 01:54:39,440 --> 01:54:41,320 Speaker 1: gotta tell you. I mean, I've been around a lot 2386 01:54:41,360 --> 01:54:46,480 Speaker 1: of receivers and we've seen all kinds. Andre Terrell, I mean, 2387 01:54:48,000 --> 01:54:50,760 Speaker 1: those guys aren't saying that. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Andre, 2388 01:54:50,920 --> 01:54:54,960 Speaker 1: love you, but that was not Andre. Right here, bro 2389 01:54:55,200 --> 01:54:59,800 Speaker 1: am I right chance to tell how John Brown was 2390 01:54:59,840 --> 01:55:03,040 Speaker 1: my Yeah, this is my point. What do you got 2391 01:55:03,120 --> 01:55:05,320 Speaker 1: a full blown bromance going on over here? Where Murph 2392 01:55:05,440 --> 01:55:08,680 Speaker 1: is solely responsible for those oh right, right? Right? Yes, 2393 01:55:08,760 --> 01:55:12,000 Speaker 1: I forgot about this, the recruitment right, it was solely 2394 01:55:12,040 --> 01:55:14,520 Speaker 1: responsible for John Brown being on the Buffalo bill. That's right, 2395 01:55:14,760 --> 01:55:18,480 Speaker 1: you think about Brandon Bean and we have to talk 2396 01:55:18,480 --> 01:55:21,000 Speaker 1: about the Buffalo defense yesterday. Yeah, I think set the 2397 01:55:21,080 --> 01:55:23,040 Speaker 1: tone early. I think kind of led the way for 2398 01:55:23,080 --> 01:55:25,760 Speaker 1: the offense. And I tweeted this out during the game 2399 01:55:25,800 --> 01:55:27,560 Speaker 1: because I was kind of charting it as we were going. 2400 01:55:28,640 --> 01:55:32,320 Speaker 1: The first thirteen plays by the Dolphins, eight went for 2401 01:55:32,480 --> 01:55:35,480 Speaker 1: no gain or a loss. And I'm not talking and 2402 01:55:35,560 --> 01:55:37,560 Speaker 1: they hadn't even gotten on the sack parade yet at 2403 01:55:37,600 --> 01:55:39,600 Speaker 1: that point in the game. We're talking tackles for loss. 2404 01:55:40,320 --> 01:55:44,240 Speaker 1: I mean Kaylin Balage three carries minus three yards its 2405 01:55:44,280 --> 01:55:46,600 Speaker 1: first three carries. I mean they were going they had 2406 01:55:46,640 --> 01:55:49,880 Speaker 1: it going in reverse. So yeah, And I know a 2407 01:55:49,920 --> 01:55:51,760 Speaker 1: lot's been made of Tremaine Edmonds in the fact that 2408 01:55:51,840 --> 01:55:53,440 Speaker 1: he got up in front of the team Saturday night, 2409 01:55:53,480 --> 01:55:57,240 Speaker 1: addressed the team and said, Hey, this is a team 2410 01:55:57,280 --> 01:56:01,120 Speaker 1: we should dominate tomorrow. Let's not be good and leave 2411 01:56:01,160 --> 01:56:03,640 Speaker 1: teams in games like this that we should dominate. Let's 2412 01:56:03,920 --> 01:56:06,640 Speaker 1: door and you know, just be good. Let's dominate this 2413 01:56:06,760 --> 01:56:10,520 Speaker 1: opponent and hang him out to dry. And he addressed 2414 01:56:10,520 --> 01:56:13,240 Speaker 1: the entire team. And I talked to John Brown after 2415 01:56:13,320 --> 01:56:16,200 Speaker 1: the game along with some other media members, and we said, 2416 01:56:16,280 --> 01:56:17,520 Speaker 1: you know, what do you think of that? You know, 2417 01:56:17,640 --> 01:56:19,960 Speaker 1: Tremaine Edmond speaking, goes. I was shocked, he goes. I've 2418 01:56:19,960 --> 01:56:21,520 Speaker 1: never heard him talk before, so that was a big 2419 01:56:21,560 --> 01:56:24,040 Speaker 1: deal because he doesn't talk to the offensive guys a 2420 01:56:24,080 --> 01:56:26,240 Speaker 1: whole lot. So and and you know, we checked in 2421 01:56:26,480 --> 01:56:28,840 Speaker 1: with Lorenzo because Lorenzo has been kind of mentoring him 2422 01:56:28,920 --> 01:56:35,320 Speaker 1: through this leadership role. And Lorenzo said, sometimes last year 2423 01:56:35,360 --> 01:56:36,920 Speaker 1: I would say, hey, you may want to say something 2424 01:56:36,960 --> 01:56:39,080 Speaker 1: to the guys this and the other. He goes, this 2425 01:56:39,280 --> 01:56:41,280 Speaker 1: was unsolicited. He did it on his own. He made 2426 01:56:41,320 --> 01:56:43,240 Speaker 1: the decision I gotta get up in front of these 2427 01:56:43,320 --> 01:56:46,920 Speaker 1: guys and say, let's go, let's beat the tar out 2428 01:56:46,960 --> 01:56:49,400 Speaker 1: of an opponent for once here and end this thing early. 2429 01:56:49,880 --> 01:56:55,400 Speaker 1: And they responded, I mean in a gigantic way. Yeah, Chris, 2430 01:56:55,480 --> 01:56:56,920 Speaker 1: before we let you go, do you have anything to 2431 01:56:56,960 --> 01:56:59,040 Speaker 1: say about the remaining schedule then we move into the 2432 01:56:59,120 --> 01:57:02,440 Speaker 1: final of the season essentially, Yeah, A three home, three 2433 01:57:02,480 --> 01:57:04,640 Speaker 1: on the road and there's a four game stretch is 2434 01:57:04,760 --> 01:57:07,400 Speaker 1: some you know, interesting maybe difficult games coming up here. 2435 01:57:07,440 --> 01:57:10,120 Speaker 1: They've got to look I don't like to look ahead. 2436 01:57:10,200 --> 01:57:12,240 Speaker 1: I'm the guy who also invented the term week to 2437 01:57:12,280 --> 01:57:13,920 Speaker 1: week league I didn't invent it, but you know what 2438 01:57:14,000 --> 01:57:15,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you use it a lot. I use it 2439 01:57:15,560 --> 01:57:17,560 Speaker 1: a lot. You didn't coin that phrase, but you perfected it. 2440 01:57:17,680 --> 01:57:19,880 Speaker 1: But look ahead. Now, let's look ahead. There's only six 2441 01:57:19,920 --> 01:57:23,440 Speaker 1: games left. It's not an easy road to ten or 2442 01:57:23,440 --> 01:57:26,080 Speaker 1: eleven wins, but it is there. You can almost craft one. Kid. 2443 01:57:26,320 --> 01:57:28,520 Speaker 1: It's a week to week league Murphy, as you say. 2444 01:57:28,880 --> 01:57:31,640 Speaker 1: And even last week when I was looking at that 2445 01:57:31,720 --> 01:57:34,280 Speaker 1: four game stretch, I wasn't thrilled with it. Right. I 2446 01:57:34,360 --> 01:57:37,560 Speaker 1: already feel different a week later, yea, because the Dallas 2447 01:57:37,640 --> 01:57:41,160 Speaker 1: Cowboys suddenly can't tackle anybody on defense. Did you see 2448 01:57:41,200 --> 01:57:43,960 Speaker 1: them running? I mean, Dak Prescotts gotta throw for four 2449 01:57:44,040 --> 01:57:45,840 Speaker 1: hundred yards and four touchdowns every week for them to 2450 01:57:45,880 --> 01:57:49,120 Speaker 1: win football games. Right now, now, he is, but that 2451 01:57:49,320 --> 01:57:51,680 Speaker 1: defense is a problem. They got to get that corrected, 2452 01:57:51,760 --> 01:57:53,440 Speaker 1: and they may by the time the Bills face him 2453 01:57:53,480 --> 01:57:57,160 Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving and at the Steelers is a winnable game. Now. 2454 01:57:57,960 --> 01:57:59,800 Speaker 1: They don't have anybody healthy, right, They don't have any 2455 01:58:00,320 --> 01:58:03,400 Speaker 1: backs there. Juju Smith Schuster's not gonna play this week. 2456 01:58:03,640 --> 01:58:06,280 Speaker 1: He's got a concussion. Deontay Johnson, the young kid they love, 2457 01:58:06,360 --> 01:58:14,880 Speaker 1: he's got a concussion, he can't play. So ah, Um, 2458 01:58:15,680 --> 01:58:17,720 Speaker 1: I think Dallas is just gonna be tough because it's 2459 01:58:17,760 --> 01:58:20,200 Speaker 1: in Dallas. They always seem to play well on Thanksgiving. 2460 01:58:20,600 --> 01:58:23,840 Speaker 1: That's a tough game. Baltimore looks like the most intimidating 2461 01:58:23,920 --> 01:58:26,040 Speaker 1: game of the bunch, even more so than New England 2462 01:58:26,680 --> 01:58:29,080 Speaker 1: because I think that's the best all around team of 2463 01:58:29,200 --> 01:58:33,600 Speaker 1: that group. That they're gonna face, great defense, offense that's 2464 01:58:33,720 --> 01:58:36,960 Speaker 1: unique and difficult to prepare for and stop with their 2465 01:58:37,040 --> 01:58:39,400 Speaker 1: three tight end monster that they put on the field. 2466 01:58:39,800 --> 01:58:43,520 Speaker 1: It's just it's a personnel grouping nightmare. Um. New England's 2467 01:58:43,560 --> 01:58:47,000 Speaker 1: offense is struggling. They are struggling right now, but that 2468 01:58:47,160 --> 01:58:50,320 Speaker 1: defense is so darned good. If they score sixteen points, 2469 01:58:50,320 --> 01:58:53,200 Speaker 1: they're gonna win games. Um. So it's a tough stretch. 2470 01:58:53,760 --> 01:58:56,440 Speaker 1: I think Pittsburgh's a winnable game. I think if some 2471 01:58:56,560 --> 01:58:59,560 Speaker 1: things fall right early against Dallas, they could win that game. 2472 01:59:00,280 --> 01:59:02,320 Speaker 1: I'm just not convinced beating New England and New England 2473 01:59:02,400 --> 01:59:04,800 Speaker 1: is going to happen. And Baltimore to me, is the 2474 01:59:04,840 --> 01:59:07,400 Speaker 1: best team in the AFC right now. Okay, what do 2475 01:59:07,440 --> 01:59:09,120 Speaker 1: you got coming up on the website. You're gonna cover 2476 01:59:09,400 --> 01:59:11,720 Speaker 1: McDermott in the court right now, so we'll have Quick 2477 01:59:11,800 --> 01:59:15,720 Speaker 1: Hits later this afternoon into that live right and so yes, 2478 01:59:16,320 --> 01:59:19,040 Speaker 1: we got it on Facebook Live and all our platforms. Yes, 2479 01:59:19,360 --> 01:59:21,240 Speaker 1: so they can watch it live if they're at home 2480 01:59:21,360 --> 01:59:23,880 Speaker 1: from work already, but if not, we've got quick Hits, 2481 01:59:23,920 --> 01:59:26,760 Speaker 1: which is our drive through window version of the ground 2482 01:59:26,840 --> 01:59:29,920 Speaker 1: that coach covered that we feel is noteworthy and that 2483 01:59:30,080 --> 01:59:32,200 Speaker 1: fans need to be up to speed on, hopefully a 2484 01:59:32,320 --> 01:59:36,960 Speaker 1: tie and Sechy update among other things. And then you know, 2485 01:59:37,040 --> 01:59:39,520 Speaker 1: on Tuesday, as always, we'll have the Noteworthy Numbers column 2486 01:59:39,880 --> 01:59:42,200 Speaker 1: where we kind of enlighten people on some stats that 2487 01:59:42,280 --> 01:59:44,760 Speaker 1: might be flying under the radar that have painted this 2488 01:59:44,880 --> 01:59:46,920 Speaker 1: team in a very good lighting or some couple There 2489 01:59:46,960 --> 01:59:50,720 Speaker 1: are a couple of very interesting ones, one that involves 2490 01:59:51,000 --> 01:59:54,000 Speaker 1: Buffalo success on sacks yesterday that I think fans would 2491 01:59:54,000 --> 01:59:57,600 Speaker 1: be interested to know. Really, Yeah, can't wait because Sachs 2492 01:59:57,640 --> 02:00:01,600 Speaker 1: has not been you know, right, a key category for 2493 02:00:01,680 --> 02:00:04,640 Speaker 1: the Bills. But there there's one thing that they're doing 2494 02:00:04,800 --> 02:00:08,120 Speaker 1: in the sack category that is very interesting and league leading, 2495 02:00:08,360 --> 02:00:10,280 Speaker 1: So you don't got my attention. Though looking at the 2496 02:00:10,360 --> 02:00:13,960 Speaker 1: league stats, they're not horrible when it comes to uh, sax, 2497 02:00:14,080 --> 02:00:16,600 Speaker 1: let me look it up. Is that a compliment? Huh? 2498 02:00:17,080 --> 02:00:19,680 Speaker 1: Is that not horrible? No? I mean I think the 2499 02:00:19,760 --> 02:00:22,360 Speaker 1: perception is they're top ten. They're ninth of the league 2500 02:00:22,360 --> 02:00:25,880 Speaker 1: in sack percentage. That's not bad. No, it's not okay, 2501 02:00:26,080 --> 02:00:27,920 Speaker 1: Thanks Chris, Yeah, right, Brownie, Well have it Chris Brown 2502 02:00:27,960 --> 02:00:30,040 Speaker 1: Bills inside of Buffalo Bills dot Com.

One Live presents the Maddie's 2531 02:02:07,880 --> 02:02:11,440 Speaker 1: So Beautiful. Bring in trade some Hollywood music there, all right, 2532 02:02:11,480 --> 02:02:14,400 Speaker 1: let's start offensive. MVP thirty seven points. You got some 2533 02:02:14,440 --> 02:02:16,680 Speaker 1: stuff to sort through here, in the offensive set. Yeah, 2534 02:02:16,680 --> 02:02:18,320 Speaker 1: I mean there are a lot of good things on offense, 2535 02:02:18,400 --> 02:02:20,480 Speaker 1: but I think it has to be Josh Allen in 2536 02:02:20,600 --> 02:02:24,160 Speaker 1: his performance yesterday, I think his best performance yet as 2537 02:02:24,200 --> 02:02:26,280 Speaker 1: a Buffalo Bill. I mean, one hundred and seventeen point 2538 02:02:26,360 --> 02:02:29,200 Speaker 1: seven pass a rating thirty seven points on the board, 2539 02:02:29,240 --> 02:02:32,760 Speaker 1: and he was doing things that he really hasn't done yet, 2540 02:02:32,840 --> 02:02:35,120 Speaker 1: whether it was making checks at the line and motioning 2541 02:02:35,160 --> 02:02:38,440 Speaker 1: to John Brown with that cover two pass that was 2542 02:02:38,600 --> 02:02:41,160 Speaker 1: a forty yard completion twenty six yards in the air. 2543 02:02:41,240 --> 02:02:43,400 Speaker 1: We haven't seen Josh Allen do that yet this season. 2544 02:02:44,080 --> 02:02:47,720 Speaker 1: No turnovers, he did not get sacked. He's now tied 2545 02:02:47,800 --> 02:02:50,960 Speaker 1: with Dak Prescott for eight to games where he's had 2546 02:02:50,960 --> 02:02:54,360 Speaker 1: at least one passing touchdown in a rushing touchdown. That's 2547 02:02:54,400 --> 02:02:56,800 Speaker 1: the third most out of any NFL quarterback through his 2548 02:02:56,880 --> 02:03:00,520 Speaker 1: first two seasons. That's an awesome stat. He has had 2549 02:03:00,600 --> 02:03:04,120 Speaker 1: five consecutive games where he's had two touchdowns at least 2550 02:03:04,120 --> 02:03:06,880 Speaker 1: two touchdowns and no interceptions. The last person who has 2551 02:03:06,920 --> 02:03:09,640 Speaker 1: done that that was Russell Wilson in twenty fifteen. So 2552 02:03:10,080 --> 02:03:13,720 Speaker 1: I think some very very great things were done by 2553 02:03:13,880 --> 02:03:16,680 Speaker 1: Josh Allen at quarterback yesterday. And maybe a little bit 2554 02:03:16,720 --> 02:03:19,120 Speaker 1: of that was also because day Ball was upstairs in 2555 02:03:19,160 --> 02:03:21,080 Speaker 1: the booth calling the game. He might have been able 2556 02:03:21,120 --> 02:03:22,960 Speaker 1: to help Josh Allen with some of those checks at 2557 02:03:22,960 --> 02:03:24,640 Speaker 1: the line, being in his ear like that and being 2558 02:03:24,680 --> 02:03:27,440 Speaker 1: able to see the all twenty two. But he looked 2559 02:03:27,560 --> 02:03:30,320 Speaker 1: very clean yesterday, and I was so happy with him 2560 02:03:30,360 --> 02:03:34,000 Speaker 1: because this offense goes as Josh Allen goes, and what 2561 02:03:34,160 --> 02:03:36,680 Speaker 1: he was able to do put fifty six rushing yards 2562 02:03:36,720 --> 02:03:40,000 Speaker 1: on the board too, I mean, thirty seven points. That 2563 02:03:40,120 --> 02:03:41,520 Speaker 1: was great to see in a lot of people. I 2564 02:03:41,600 --> 02:03:43,840 Speaker 1: tweeted after the game that I was just really proud 2565 02:03:43,880 --> 02:03:45,560 Speaker 1: of this team and the players for the stats that 2566 02:03:45,600 --> 02:03:47,400 Speaker 1: they put up. And a lot of people were saying, oh, 2567 02:03:47,480 --> 02:03:50,000 Speaker 1: it's against the Dolphins. Josh Allen hasn't thrown for three 2568 02:03:50,080 --> 02:03:53,760 Speaker 1: hundred yards. It's not easy to beat teams in the NFL. 2569 02:03:54,120 --> 02:03:56,440 Speaker 1: There's thirty two teams the NFL. Yes, the Dolphins are 2570 02:03:56,560 --> 02:03:58,760 Speaker 1: not the best team in the NFL, but to beat 2571 02:03:58,800 --> 02:04:01,080 Speaker 1: them by seventeen points, Josh Allen didn't need to put 2572 02:04:01,120 --> 02:04:03,440 Speaker 1: three hundred passing yards on the board, right. Yeah, eight 2573 02:04:03,480 --> 02:04:05,360 Speaker 1: other teams that played the Dolphins this year, some of 2574 02:04:05,400 --> 02:04:07,520 Speaker 1: them have lost to the Dolphins. They're an NFL team. 2575 02:04:07,680 --> 02:04:09,800 Speaker 1: They were on a two game win streak before the 2576 02:04:09,880 --> 02:04:12,920 Speaker 1: Bills beat them yesterday. So can I offer a runner 2577 02:04:13,000 --> 02:04:15,840 Speaker 1: up for offensive MVP yesterday? You know what? Go ahead, 2578 02:04:16,160 --> 02:04:19,040 Speaker 1: John Brown? Right, he had he had a great he 2579 02:04:19,080 --> 02:04:21,440 Speaker 1: had a great game. Well we'll talk. Well, we have 2580 02:04:21,520 --> 02:04:26,080 Speaker 1: an award for him, Yes we do. We do, so 2581 02:04:26,280 --> 02:04:28,720 Speaker 1: just just wait. We'll give him the love that he deserves. 2582 02:04:28,760 --> 02:04:30,800 Speaker 1: I can't. I see, I've looked through this, all all 2583 02:04:30,840 --> 02:04:33,280 Speaker 1: this stuff. It's gonna be good. We're talking about all right, 2584 02:04:33,320 --> 02:04:36,839 Speaker 1: offensive MVP. Now, who's the defensive MVP? This one was interesting, 2585 02:04:36,880 --> 02:04:41,120 Speaker 1: but I understand it. The defensive MVP goes to Tremaine Edmunds, 2586 02:04:41,920 --> 02:04:46,160 Speaker 1: the defensive line and the linebackers. Seven sacks out of 2587 02:04:46,200 --> 02:04:49,480 Speaker 1: them yesterday. A great day for Leslie Fraser in the 2588 02:04:49,560 --> 02:04:51,840 Speaker 1: defense that he called the way that they were aggressive 2589 02:04:51,960 --> 02:04:57,120 Speaker 1: and blitzed Ryan Fitzpatrick, completely throwing him off guard. Tremaine 2590 02:04:57,200 --> 02:05:01,720 Speaker 1: had twelve tackles, a half sack, He had two quarterback hits, 2591 02:05:01,760 --> 02:05:04,720 Speaker 1: one pass defended, And I think this award has to 2592 02:05:04,800 --> 02:05:07,680 Speaker 1: go to him, because when you are the quarterback of 2593 02:05:07,720 --> 02:05:10,520 Speaker 1: the defense, the mic linebacker, you're making a lot of 2594 02:05:10,600 --> 02:05:13,720 Speaker 1: calls on defense and you're helping this defense operate in 2595 02:05:13,760 --> 02:05:16,760 Speaker 1: the way that they were able to affect the quarterback yesterday. 2596 02:05:16,800 --> 02:05:19,000 Speaker 1: I think has to do a lot with Tremaine Edmonds. 2597 02:05:19,080 --> 02:05:21,960 Speaker 1: He's still one of the youngest players in the NFL 2598 02:05:22,200 --> 02:05:24,840 Speaker 1: and we are seeing him grow before our eyes. I 2599 02:05:24,960 --> 02:05:27,960 Speaker 1: also think he deserves this award because of the speech 2600 02:05:28,080 --> 02:05:30,960 Speaker 1: he gave to his team before the Dolphins game. This 2601 02:05:31,160 --> 02:05:33,680 Speaker 1: is a player that is way more quiet when it 2602 02:05:33,760 --> 02:05:36,640 Speaker 1: comes to being off the field. He doesn't speak up 2603 02:05:36,640 --> 02:05:39,760 Speaker 1: a lot, but he decided to speak up in a 2604 02:05:39,880 --> 02:05:42,320 Speaker 1: moment when it mattered and his team listened, and I 2605 02:05:42,400 --> 02:05:46,280 Speaker 1: think that's showing how this player is growing into the 2606 02:05:46,480 --> 02:05:48,960 Speaker 1: leader that he's supposed to be. And it takes a 2607 02:05:49,000 --> 02:05:51,200 Speaker 1: lot to do that when you're not not known to 2608 02:05:51,240 --> 02:05:54,000 Speaker 1: be a talker. Yeah, so I think he deserves the 2609 02:05:54,000 --> 02:05:56,920 Speaker 1: award because of that. All Right, Defensive MVP Tremine Edmonds. 2610 02:05:57,000 --> 02:05:59,400 Speaker 1: Next award is interesting. One of the best quote and 2611 02:05:59,480 --> 02:06:02,720 Speaker 1: Sean mcderman kind of channeled the nineteen eighties with this one. 2612 02:06:02,760 --> 02:06:06,680 Speaker 1: Back when Steve Tasker was going in his polyester suits 2613 02:06:06,720 --> 02:06:12,920 Speaker 1: to discos. Okay, okay, eighties were parachute pants and break. 2614 02:06:13,400 --> 02:06:16,160 Speaker 1: There you go. But the best quote from this game yesterday, right, 2615 02:06:16,240 --> 02:06:19,080 Speaker 1: and kind of goes back to an interesting We'll go ahead, 2616 02:06:19,080 --> 02:06:21,080 Speaker 1: I'll let you to Yeah. I thought Sean McDermott had 2617 02:06:21,080 --> 02:06:23,680 Speaker 1: a great quote. He said that the team had the 2618 02:06:23,840 --> 02:06:27,400 Speaker 1: eye of the tiger when it came to the game yesterday, uh, 2619 02:06:27,520 --> 02:06:29,720 Speaker 1: and saying that it wasn't the easiest week. The team 2620 02:06:29,800 --> 02:06:32,080 Speaker 1: was very resilient in the way that they operated. And 2621 02:06:32,200 --> 02:06:34,200 Speaker 1: we have the quote right here, so we'll go ahead 2622 02:06:34,240 --> 02:06:38,480 Speaker 1: and listen. I thought they had the eye of the tiger. 2623 02:06:38,640 --> 02:06:41,040 Speaker 1: They really did, and that you know, those guys will 2624 02:06:41,080 --> 02:06:43,640 Speaker 1: tell you it wasn't it wasn't an easy week and um, 2625 02:06:44,680 --> 02:06:46,520 Speaker 1: and so that's that just shows that the amount of 2626 02:06:46,560 --> 02:06:48,680 Speaker 1: resiliency and the group and the amount of leadership, the 2627 02:06:48,720 --> 02:06:52,680 Speaker 1: player driven leadership, not my leadership, their leadership. And they 2628 02:06:52,760 --> 02:06:56,320 Speaker 1: take a lot of pride in their work. Cool. Yeah, 2629 02:06:56,480 --> 02:06:58,880 Speaker 1: that was good and it showed on the field in 2630 02:06:58,960 --> 02:07:01,840 Speaker 1: every phase offense and defense, I thought, and I was 2631 02:07:01,880 --> 02:07:03,720 Speaker 1: asking Josh Allen the rest of these guys that the 2632 02:07:03,800 --> 02:07:07,120 Speaker 1: coaching staff I thought stepped that up. Yeah, taking pride 2633 02:07:07,120 --> 02:07:09,240 Speaker 1: in your work, and he said, there's player driven leadership. 2634 02:07:09,280 --> 02:07:11,080 Speaker 1: I think that is so cool. I think this team 2635 02:07:11,480 --> 02:07:14,120 Speaker 1: is so unique in so many ways because of that 2636 02:07:14,200 --> 02:07:16,880 Speaker 1: player driven leadership, because the leaders in that locker room, 2637 02:07:17,040 --> 02:07:19,280 Speaker 1: some great vets, some younger guys that are stepping up. 2638 02:07:19,520 --> 02:07:21,520 Speaker 1: And now we got some eye the Tiger music that 2639 02:07:21,640 --> 02:07:27,760 Speaker 1: I was playing. Award charitable award. You have a charitable award, 2640 02:07:27,920 --> 02:07:31,440 Speaker 1: I do that. One goes to John Brown for him 2641 02:07:31,520 --> 02:07:33,880 Speaker 1: giving out those forty tickets to the game. He is 2642 02:07:34,000 --> 02:07:37,880 Speaker 1: from Florida. This was a going back home game for 2643 02:07:38,000 --> 02:07:40,040 Speaker 1: him as well as several other Bills. There's a lot 2644 02:07:40,080 --> 02:07:43,000 Speaker 1: of Florida Bills on this team, and so for him 2645 02:07:43,040 --> 02:07:46,240 Speaker 1: to donate those tickets and he said his line was, 2646 02:07:47,160 --> 02:07:49,560 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to give them hope and motivation. I'm 2647 02:07:49,600 --> 02:07:51,680 Speaker 1: just glad I was able to play well and give 2648 02:07:51,720 --> 02:07:54,040 Speaker 1: them hope. This is a guy that really cares about 2649 02:07:54,080 --> 02:07:58,160 Speaker 1: giving back to his community and doing well by being 2650 02:07:58,240 --> 02:08:00,760 Speaker 1: in the NFL, by making it more in football when 2651 02:08:00,800 --> 02:08:04,760 Speaker 1: it can be more than football, um by empowering younger kids, 2652 02:08:04,880 --> 02:08:08,640 Speaker 1: by motivating younger kids to be to dream and be 2653 02:08:08,720 --> 02:08:10,480 Speaker 1: able to do what they wanted to do. This is 2654 02:08:10,680 --> 02:08:14,320 Speaker 1: a player who had one scholarship offer coming out of college, 2655 02:08:14,320 --> 02:08:17,600 Speaker 1: he went to pitt State. Uh and look at him now, 2656 02:08:17,760 --> 02:08:21,360 Speaker 1: eight hundred and seventeen receiving yards. That's the eighth best 2657 02:08:21,440 --> 02:08:25,800 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Right now, he's averaging uh over fourteen 2658 02:08:25,880 --> 02:08:30,600 Speaker 1: yards per catch. Uh. He's been a great asset to 2659 02:08:30,680 --> 02:08:33,480 Speaker 1: this Buffalo Bill's offense. Yeah. No, And we also has 2660 02:08:33,560 --> 02:08:35,960 Speaker 1: some a rarity. I think that you were going to 2661 02:08:36,040 --> 02:08:37,760 Speaker 1: go around the league and give some Maddie Awards to 2662 02:08:37,840 --> 02:08:39,760 Speaker 1: players around the league and some things that happened around 2663 02:08:39,760 --> 02:08:41,960 Speaker 1: the league, which yep, this is uh is this we 2664 02:08:42,080 --> 02:08:44,960 Speaker 1: do this? We don't do this very often, right, once 2665 02:08:45,000 --> 02:08:50,320 Speaker 1: in a while, best celebration, best sell best best selly. 2666 02:08:51,040 --> 02:08:54,160 Speaker 1: It has to be Quenton Nelson from the Colts doing 2667 02:08:54,240 --> 02:08:58,040 Speaker 1: a keg stand. The touchdown didn't count. He wasn't able 2668 02:08:58,120 --> 02:09:01,960 Speaker 1: to exactly break the through the plane. Um, but they 2669 02:09:02,080 --> 02:09:07,240 Speaker 1: celebrated anyways, and it was a keg stand celebration. And 2670 02:09:07,480 --> 02:09:10,040 Speaker 1: he said the idea came from he just thought about 2671 02:09:10,080 --> 02:09:12,840 Speaker 1: it one day and he said, whoever, whatever offensive line 2672 02:09:12,880 --> 02:09:14,440 Speaker 1: gets in the end zone, first, we're gonna do a 2673 02:09:14,520 --> 02:09:19,800 Speaker 1: keigstand celebration. So it was executed perfectly. It was hilarious. 2674 02:09:21,080 --> 02:09:23,720 Speaker 1: So they so one offensive line gets a four point 2675 02:09:23,760 --> 02:09:26,000 Speaker 1: then the other offensive line let him do a handstand 2676 02:09:26,080 --> 02:09:28,480 Speaker 1: on top of what would be a keg. Yeah, right, 2677 02:09:29,200 --> 02:09:34,800 Speaker 1: and then after they do this huge, elaborate, choreographed fun celebration. 2678 02:09:35,560 --> 02:09:38,080 Speaker 1: It didn't count. It didn't count. It did not count. 2679 02:09:38,280 --> 02:09:40,520 Speaker 1: That is awesome. That's the best part about it, right, 2680 02:09:41,080 --> 02:09:43,680 Speaker 1: that's great. But the Colts were on to win. That 2681 02:09:43,760 --> 02:09:47,680 Speaker 1: game was thirty three to thirteen against Jacksonville. So one 2682 02:09:47,720 --> 02:09:52,360 Speaker 1: more that's quarterback performance. Yeah, there's there's a few quarterbacks, 2683 02:09:52,440 --> 02:09:55,400 Speaker 1: including Josh Allen. We're gonna go outside of the bills, 2684 02:09:55,520 --> 02:09:59,560 Speaker 1: but just a couple uh three quarterbacks that I wanted 2685 02:09:59,560 --> 02:10:03,600 Speaker 1: to give outs too. So Jimmy g and the forty 2686 02:10:03,680 --> 02:10:06,440 Speaker 1: nine ers, they were down twenty three to thirty to 2687 02:10:06,760 --> 02:10:09,880 Speaker 1: twenty six with thirty seconds on the clock, and he 2688 02:10:10,040 --> 02:10:12,560 Speaker 1: throws a twenty five yard dime to Jeff Wilson to 2689 02:10:12,640 --> 02:10:15,520 Speaker 1: make it thirty to twenty six. They end up winning 2690 02:10:15,560 --> 02:10:18,480 Speaker 1: thirty six to twenty six. But he completed seventy five 2691 02:10:18,560 --> 02:10:20,920 Speaker 1: percent of his passes four hundred and twenty four yards 2692 02:10:21,000 --> 02:10:26,040 Speaker 1: four touchdowns, So this team up pretty good. The forty 2693 02:10:26,120 --> 02:10:28,400 Speaker 1: nine ers, they're having a good season. And then of course, 2694 02:10:28,480 --> 02:10:31,400 Speaker 1: got a shout out Kirk Cousins for his performance against 2695 02:10:31,760 --> 02:10:34,720 Speaker 1: the Broncos. They were down twenty to zero at the 2696 02:10:34,800 --> 02:10:37,720 Speaker 1: half and they came back one at twenty seven, twenty 2697 02:10:37,760 --> 02:10:42,480 Speaker 1: three fifty four yard touchdown pass to pass to Stefan Diggs. 2698 02:10:42,880 --> 02:10:45,360 Speaker 1: He had three touchdowns, one hundred and thirty three point 2699 02:10:45,400 --> 02:10:48,120 Speaker 1: two passer rating, So great day for him. And then 2700 02:10:48,280 --> 02:10:52,160 Speaker 1: of course Lamar Jackson, let's see him. We'll get to him. 2701 02:10:52,400 --> 02:10:59,120 Speaker 1: He is continuously making the case for MVP with his day. 2702 02:11:00,440 --> 02:11:02,800 Speaker 1: In the six game win streak that they've had, he 2703 02:11:03,200 --> 02:11:06,600 Speaker 1: has completed sixty seven percent of his passes one thousand, 2704 02:11:06,680 --> 02:11:09,520 Speaker 1: one hundred forty eight passing yards, five hundred and fifty 2705 02:11:09,600 --> 02:11:14,200 Speaker 1: rushing yards, fourteen total touchdowns, only three interceptions, and one 2706 02:11:14,320 --> 02:11:18,680 Speaker 1: h three point five rating.
