00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: This is One Bill's Live, presented by Calida Health.

2
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 2: All Right, welcome to One Bill's Live.

3
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 3: Here midweek as we are still digesting the final morsels

4
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 3: of the NFL draft and some veteran roster additions early

5
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 3: this week that we'll discuss in earnest today. But Steve,

6
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 3: before we get to all of that, I am proud

7
00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 3: to report, Chris Brown one Nature zero, I have defeated

8
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 3: the birds in my backyard.

9
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: I do hope remained. I hope your moral compass is intact.

10
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 3: It was done in a very humane way. The BB

11
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 3: gun did not make an appearance, so uh. For those

12
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 3: that don't know. Earlier this week, I was explaining to

13
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 3: Steve that I've got very persistent robins in my backyard

14
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 3: trying to land on top of like a ledge on

15
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 3: the underside of my back patio covering. You know, I

16
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,680
Speaker 3: have a permanent structure covering in my backyard that covers

17
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 3: my my back concrete.

18
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: What you do? What'd you do? What'd you do?

19
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 3: So, after sweeping away three attempts at a nest, I

20
00:01:55,040 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 3: went first with a rubber alligator, like a tiny one,

21
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 3: just sat them up there to try to spook them.

22
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 3: They kicked it off the ledge. Unimpressed, I tried one

23
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 3: of those owls that you often see people put on

24
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 3: top of their houses to keep birds from roosting up there.

25
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 3: They pooped on it quite honestly. So unintimidated there. So

26
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 3: I turned then to bird spikes. Have you seen these?

27
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 1: Yeah?

28
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 3: You just sit them up on top of the ledge

29
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 3: where they are trying to roost and they can't land

30
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 3: because they're kind of in a V formation alternating, so

31
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 3: there's no way for them to land without poking themselves

32
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,079
Speaker 3: on one of the spikes. And these were plastic, they're

33
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:49,399
Speaker 3: not even metal. Success Steve Success. Now, initially, I will

34
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 3: tell you I only put them in the immediate area

35
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 3: where they were trying to set up shop. I did

36
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 3: not go all the way across said legs. So I

37
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 3: put like two or three of them up. I had

38
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,519
Speaker 3: like a ten foot length of bird spikes in little

39
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 3: six inch or one foot sections, and I only put

40
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 3: two up where they had been roosting, because I'm like,

41
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 3: why am I gonna use all these if this is this?

42
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 3: Because they kept going to the same exact spot, So I, uh,

43
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 3: I come home after I put those two up. At

44
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 3: the end of the week, day, I kid you not.

45
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 3: I am in my kitchen looking out my backsliding door

46
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 3: where I have full view of the patio area, and

47
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 3: one robin is on the ledge next to the bird

48
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,839
Speaker 3: spikes that I just put up, and the other one

49
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 3: is on the ledge on the other side of the patio,

50
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 3: as if they are surveying future options, right at which

51
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 3: point I said to myself, looks like we're gonna have

52
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 3: to go all the way across. So we did, and

53
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 3: I'm happy to report they have moved on to hopefully

54
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 3: a tree, because I gotta tell you three. I mean,

55
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 3: their ancestors for thousands of years were more than happy

56
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 3: putting a nest in a tree. And you know, maybe

57
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 3: this is the on demand generation of robins as well

58
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 3: as humans, because for some reason they were convinced they

59
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 3: needed a dome. No domes, no room for domes. At

60
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 3: the end here you got to move on.

61
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 4: So they have moved on.

62
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: That's a victory for me, school victory my dad, when

63
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: you're winning the off season.

64
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 3: That's right, Chris Brown one Nature zero. My dad used

65
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 3: to battle. We had a mouse problem in our garage.

66
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 3: We had a detached garage on the back of our property.

67
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 3: I say property. It was you know, it was a

68
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 3: row house like you know Levittown personified post World War

69
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 3: two housing. And the garage was set back from the house,

70
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 3: it wasn't attached, and it was butted up against our

71
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 3: elementary school schoolyard. So you got field mice running here

72
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: there and everywhere out there. So we had a we

73
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 3: had a mouse problem in the garage. And my dad

74
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 3: literally kept score on the side wall of the garage

75
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 3: with a piece of chalk because he'd set up mouse

76
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 3: traps and if he got one, Mike won mice you know, zero.

77
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 3: But here's the thing.

78
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 4: The mice made a run. They made a run.

79
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 3: They were ahead for a while, four to three, stealing

80
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 3: cheese and peanut butter balls and everything else. So we

81
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 3: were wondering if if my dad was gonna pull it out.

82
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 3: But I think he ended up winning like six to

83
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 3: four or something in the end.

84
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: That's great.

85
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 3: So, uh, the birds did not get on the board,

86
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 3: I am happy to say, because once they lay the eggs,

87
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 3: now you know what I mean, Now you can't.

88
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: Move well, then your moral compass gets involved and then

89
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: it's like I can't help that. Yes, how you know

90
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: how wild Kingdom. Are you gonna go right?

91
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't want to go full Marlon Perkins.

92
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: So yeah.

93
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 3: So happy that that is set and out of the way,

94
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 3: and I'm glad that the bird spikes worked. I know

95
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 3: a lot of people are. I'm in with me last

96
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 3: week with suggestions. That was a good one. Work to

97
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 3: a t yep, So hopefully no more issues. The thing

98
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 3: is they keep coming back every year.

99
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they they're not dumb.

100
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,919
Speaker 3: Well it's like they got a homing device on my

101
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 3: patio though.

102
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: Well, they do migrate, so yeah, they do.

103
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 3: To the same exact spot. Like what are they like?

104
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: Salmon run, dude, you do it every day, you go

105
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: miles away, you come right back to the same spot.

106
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 5: Yeah.

107
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: I guess, come on, that's not the that's not the

108
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 1: height of intelligence.

109
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 3: That's repetition.

110
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 1: I guess fighting your way home is not the height

111
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 1: of intelligence.

112
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 3: I just didn't know how much they could cram into

113
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 3: their little.

114
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: That's the lowest of bars, being able to find your

115
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:44,799
Speaker 1: way home.

116
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, except I've made it abundantly clear that is

117
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 3: not home. Well yeah, and yet they still keep coming

118
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: back every year trying to set up. So now I

119
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 3: got to leave those things up year round, which is

120
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 3: what I'm gonna have to do. Apparent. Uh, there's a

121
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 3: matter of news and notes concerning the AFC East, So

122
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 3: let's go around the NFL, which, as you know, is

123
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,359
Speaker 3: brought to you by Kalida Healthy, official healthcare system of

124
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills.

125
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers getting his way again.

126
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 3: Even though he is no longer in Green Bay, he

127
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 3: is clearly calling the shots in New York. After the

128
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 3: Jets already signed Alan Lazard in free agency to convince

129
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers to accept a trade to the Jets, they

130
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 3: have taken another step in that vein they are signing

131
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 3: veteran receiver Randall Cobb to a one year contract to

132
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 3: sign on with the Jets. And you know, I'm sure

133
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 3: that's all well and good as far as Aaron's concerned.

134
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 3: But Steve, since you've been in similar positions before as

135
00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 3: a professional football player, I'm going to ask this of you.

136
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 3: If you're Corey Davis, Denzel Mims, Garrett Wilson even, and

137
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 3: you see Alan Lazard and Randall Cobb walking into your

138
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 3: receiver's room, who have had years of reps with Aaron Rodgers,

139
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 3: how do you not think your catchers and targets are

140
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 3: getting eaten into precipitously.

141
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: Green Bay wasn't that good last year. I know that

142
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,839
Speaker 1: with those guys. I know, and I get that the

143
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: Jets are trying to have this honeymoon period and making

144
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: sure he's all a honky door. But let me tell

145
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: you something. If your guys on the Jet listen, If

146
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: your guys on the Jets can't beat those guys out, okay, fine,

147
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: But if you keep those guys just to appease Aaron

148
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 1: Rodgers when you got these other jokers who can really go,

149
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: that's on you. That's on you.

150
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm I'm really starting to wonder here how

151
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 3: many receivers are they can keep, because this is what

152
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 3: you're looking at right now. Okay, I'll run down the

153
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 3: list for you. Garrett Wilson, Alan Lazard, Corey Davis, Denzel Mims,

154
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 3: Mikole Hardman, Randall cop and then you have some younger

155
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 3: kids on the back half of the roster who probably

156
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 3: don't have a snowballs chance of making this roster. So

157
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess they keep all six of them

158
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 3: and roll with those guys and put a couple of

159
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 3: these kids on the practice squad. Someone's not gonna be happy.

160
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 3: They're gonna be some weeks where somebody like Cory Davis

161
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 3: is inactive. I just I don't know. That's and let's

162
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 3: not forget it's not like they got a lot of

163
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 3: money to throw around either. They're tight against the cap

164
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 3: with Rogers. I mean, they're gonna try to fix that

165
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 3: going forward.

166
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, they've got some They've got guys. Garrett

167
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: Wilson is most notably who is a really good player.

168
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 1: They got out of Ohio State last year. He's a

169
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: number one wide right, you know, Denzel Mims and Lazard,

170
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: Mikole Hardman. Yeah, I get it. Cobb is a good receiver.

171
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: He's we've seen him do some stuff. And they obviously

172
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: have a relationship personal relationship, and I get that too.

173
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you always want to go and play with

174
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: your with your buddies on the team.

175
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 6: Uh.

176
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: I don't know. And certainly maybe Aaron Rodgers has seen enough,

177
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: watched film, practiced a couple of times with those guys

178
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: or whatever he's he's gonna say, listen, bring Cobb in,

179
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,199
Speaker 1: because he's better than that guy, and that guy maybe

180
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: not maybe not better than three other guys.

181
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 3: Now he's making roster decisions, right, and with that, just

182
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 3: that that's the point, right, That's what we're talking about.

183
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: They're bringing them, they're bringing.

184
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 4: These guys in to appease him.

185
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 1: Because Aaron wants it, were because because they I mean,

186
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: they're not gonna do that just because they think he

187
00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: wants it. Right.

188
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:00,719
Speaker 3: How slippery slope is that?

189
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: It's very I think because at some point you're gonna

190
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 1: have to say, yeah, you know what, No, we're not.

191
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 3: Going to we're not doing that.

192
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: No, we're not why we're not, Yes, we're not gonna

193
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: do that.

194
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 3: I mean, it's one thing if you solicit the opinion

195
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 3: of the quarterback, Hey, how would you feel about this?

196
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 3: Hey we're thinking about doing this. What do you think

197
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 3: about that guy? You know? Or hey, we were looking

198
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 3: at this guy. We found out you and he have

199
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 3: the same agent. What have you thought of him? As

200
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 3: best dealings with him or crossing paths?

201
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: Best case scenario in this case with Cob is they

202
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: come up and say, Aaron, listen, we're thinking about receiver

203
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 1: A receiver, B, receiver C. We're teying another guy. We

204
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: got these four guys. I know you have this thing

205
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:48,839
Speaker 1: with Cobb. Do you have what about these other guys?

206
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: And he say yeah, that he may know something about

207
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: those guys and this guy and that you know, he goes,

208
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 1: I like Cob better than all those guys or what.

209
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: That's the best case scenario. If they come up and

210
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: say what do you think about this and he says Cobs,

211
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: I like Cob. He's still got some gas in his tank.

212
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: Sign him to a to a deal. I get that.

213
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: But if he's just going in there cold and saying, hey,

214
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: I want I want this guy on the team, go

215
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 1: get him, that's different.

216
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 3: That's really And I'm not going to say that we

217
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 3: know definitively that it's one way or the other. But

218
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,079
Speaker 3: I just it's interesting to me the lengths they are

219
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 3: going to. I mean, it's not like they're devoid of

220
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 3: talent at the receiver position. This guy is gonna suddenly

221
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 3: put him over the top. Randall Cobb, who's like thirty

222
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 3: three years old, like I I don't know. To me,

223
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 3: it seems like you're you're trying to accommodate a guy

224
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 3: who I'm already wondering what else is he asking for?

225
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 3: Like he's walking around in the meeting room's barefoot. You know,

226
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 3: does he want a new pair of like birking stocks?

227
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 3: What are we doing here?

228
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: Right?

229
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,199
Speaker 3: I don't know that's what I see him wearing.

230
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: If that's if that's the case where they came to him, say, hey,

231
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 1: we got a group of guys. What do you think

232
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: do you guys? Does your boy Cob have anything get

233
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: left in the tank? And Aaron says, yeah, he does.

234
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: You give him a shot at it. And then they

235
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: bring him and says, we'll give him a shot at it.

236
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: But you know, we're looking for a guy who's going

237
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 1: to be a backup, a role player. You think he's

238
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: up for that, and goes, well, you can ask him

239
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: if he is is. But that's I'm cool with it,

240
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: you know that kind of thing. But if, like I said,

241
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: if Aaron's in there saying, hey, this is a list

242
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 1: of guys you got to go get in order for

243
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: me not to drag you through the mud for the

244
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 1: New York media, you better get it done. That that's

245
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 1: way different. And maybe it's somewhere in between those, but

246
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 1: it it's getting to be a thing now.

247
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 3: It's at least making me wonder. It's a thing like

248
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 3: how far are we going with this? You know, I mean,

249
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 3: what's next? Breakfast in bed every day? Like what I mean,

250
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 3: where are we going? Well?

251
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,679
Speaker 1: You know, or he comes in he says, hey, listen,

252
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson had an office in Denver. Oh that I'd

253
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 1: like an office. I forgot about that.

254
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 3: He's already got court inside seats to the next playoff game.

255
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 1: And what's he going to do if, you know, if

256
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 1: things don't go really well and Aaron goes you know what,

257
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,560
Speaker 1: Salah is not the guy I think Nate Hackett is.

258
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: You know all of that. Then it morphs into oh,

259
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 1: it's it's the abyss. Then they're they're done right, which

260
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: wouldn't They wouldn't be at all surprise, at all surprising.

261
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is official. The NFL is going to release

262
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty three twenty three regular season schedule on Thursday,

263
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 3: May eleventh. We're anticipating a primetime release. That's what they've

264
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 3: done the last several years. I don't see any reason

265
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 3: why they would change that. Anything the NFL can make

266
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 3: into a primetime event, they do. This is one of them.

267
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 3: So we would assume that Thursday May eleventh, probably around

268
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 3: eight pm Eastern time, is when the regular season schedule

269
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 3: comes out, so Bills fans that make road trips have

270
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 3: your hotel and airline pages open on your laptop ready

271
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 3: to hit purchase based on how the schedule plays out.

272
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 3: I've got neighbors and friends that literally wait by their

273
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 3: computer or on their phone to book, Like, for example,

274
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 3: when they played away at the Titans. Everybody's big on

275
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 3: the Nashville trip. You know that, Oh, if we're going

276
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 3: to go to one road game, that's that's where we're going.

277
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 3: We're going to Nashville, right, And they're all sitting there

278
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 3: waiting with their airline pages open.

279
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 1: I got family members of waiting on the London game. Yeah,

280
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: they want to go see the London game because it's

281
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 1: going to be in Theoretically it could be in Tottenham Hotspur,

282
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: which is going to be very closely related to the

283
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: new stadium they're scratching dirt on over here now, so

284
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 1: that's a big thing.

285
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 3: Well, you'll know that early because the international dates are

286
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 3: really least prior to the full schedule, and as we

287
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 3: understand it, the game the Bills will be playing at

288
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 3: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London will be released on May ninth,

289
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 3: so we will know that game date May ninth, Tuesday,

290
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 3: prior to the full schedule release.

291
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: I say that it just seems for the obviously for

292
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: the NFL network because they have their own network as well,

293
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: but for ESPN and you know sports networks, the NFL

294
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: is just an a fount of programming that just kills it.

295
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 1: In the numbers.

296
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 3: They do pretty well. The draft, what was it, fifty

297
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 3: four million people or.

298
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: Dwarfs NHL and NBA playoff games. Yeah, dwarfs them. I

299
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 1: mean it's like commercial break. They're like a commercial break.

300
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 4: The draft. Yeah, where and it was end, let's phase it.

301
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 4: It's boring.

302
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. The biggest shine is all the ice people are

303
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 3: on the first night, I.

304
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: Mean, the second two days of the draft, Gays.

305
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 4: Doing four kill it.

306
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:06,920
Speaker 3: I gotta tell you.

307
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: That's why everybody. That's why they put it on.

308
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 3: That's why they was blown away. They're showing, you know,

309
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 3: scenes of day three of the draft. It's Saturday, it's

310
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 3: round six, that's right, and there are fans of a

311
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 3: number of different teams decked out to the nines in

312
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 3: team gear. Like you can't even it's Saturday. You can't

313
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 3: even see the person. He's got one of those morph suits.

314
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 7: On.

315
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 3: It was a Colts fan and he's dancing in the aisle.

316
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 3: It's round six on a Saturday. There is no hide

317
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 3: nor hair of any players left on site.

318
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: It's day six on a Saturday, and your team's stunk.

319
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 3: And and you're dancing in the aisle on a Saturday

320
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 3: in Kansas City at an amphitheater where there are no

321
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 3: headline people coming out.

322
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 1: You're a goner. Then, man, you have.

323
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 3: Jumped the shark.

324
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 4: You're right though, and he wasn't alone.

325
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:10,439
Speaker 3: I know.

326
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,719
Speaker 1: It's a It's unbelievable. So that's why you know they

327
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 1: got this schedule release program. Now it's gonna kill it

328
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: in the numbers. They can't wait to get that thing on.

329
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: They can't wait. There's people can't get enough Brownie. You

330
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 1: and I for a living are talking about one team. Yeah,

331
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 1: every day.

332
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 3: It's an insatiable appetite, it really is.

333
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: And we're getting called. You and I are getting calls

334
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: from Florida, Jersey, California, Alabama, Wyoming, Colorado, Jersey. What what's

335
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: wrong with us?

336
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 3: I'm sure there's something wrong with each and every one

337
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 3: of us. And some You and I, Oh my gosh,

338
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 3: that's great, though, I can't. It's it's gonna be awesome.

339
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 3: I'm I'm just like everybody else. I can't wait to

340
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 3: see the schedule. Isn't it amazing?

341
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: Though the we got a tough one this year, the.

342
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 3: Metamorphosis of the schedule release and what it has turned

343
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 3: into like it wasn't even a blip on the radar

344
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:17,160
Speaker 3: ten years ago.

345
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 1: It was like it came out yesterday? Really?

346
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 5: What?

347
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: Yeah? What's it look like?

348
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 5: Now?

349
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 3: It is a nationally televised prime time event.

350
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 1: A standalone television event.

351
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 3: A schedule. I don't know why I fight.

352
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 1: Wait, not only is it a schedule, Brownie, we already

353
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: know who they're playing home and away. We just don't

354
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: know when. We know. We know the who, and we

355
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 1: know the who and the where.

356
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 3: So much of the mystery is gone.

357
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: Except for the international game. Who don't know where the

358
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 1: wear is? And yet.

359
00:19:54,800 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 3: It's gonna pull ratings. It's gonna pull ratings. It's pretty crazy.

360
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: There it is. There's the opponents, the home and away.

361
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 3: So the Bills will be losing one of their home

362
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 3: dates to the London game.

363
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: So but they get nine of them, so that they'll

364
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 1: still have eight home games here in this in Orchard Park,

365
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 1: and the ninth one will be overseas. The you know

366
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 1: people who think they know and figure stuff out like that,

367
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 1: they figure that Jacksonville game is going to be one

368
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 1: of those games overseas because the Jacksonville hasn't been in London.

369
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 3: The Raiders, I think were the other team that hasn't

370
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 3: been overseas in recent years, So those would be that.

371
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 3: Those were the two we narrowed it down to with

372
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 3: Neil Reynolds when we had them on about a month ago,

373
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 3: not long after the season.

374
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: But it could be a national, it could be a

375
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 1: Cowboys game, or it could be a Jet game.

376
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 3: Even because the Cowboys, I will say, are another team

377
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 3: that hasn't been over I don't know if they've been

378
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 3: overseas once.

379
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 1: Well, they go to Mexico.

380
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 3: They've been in Mexico, that's right, Europe I'm talking about.

381
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: I think they've been to Europe.

382
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 3: They have been to Mexico a lot. You're all right

383
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 3: about that, So I guess that qualifies as their international games.

384
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 3: So yeah, whether they would do that, I wonder, although

385
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 3: I don't think Mexico is part of the rotation because

386
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 3: they're they're renovating as Texas stadium. I think that's I

387
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 3: think I remember seeing. Yeah, so no Mexico games.

388
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: Is they Yeah. I wonder if if you were like

389
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 1: say the LA Chargers or the Seattle Seahawks. Even better,

390
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: say the Seattle Seahawks going to play in London, do

391
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 1: they go east or west? They might go north, like over.

392
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 3: The you know, oh you're going right over the North Pole.

393
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 1: Right, wouldn't be shorter?

394
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 3: Yes, it would be I would think, yeah, yeah, would right?

395
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 3: I yeah, I would think that would seem to make sense.

396
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 3: I mean, I know, even when you fly a plane

397
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 3: from Seattle to New York, they go north. They go

398
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,879
Speaker 3: north to kind of go over the narrower part of

399
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,159
Speaker 3: the Earth for fewer air miles burn less get there faster.

400
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 3: Would you do that if you're going to the other

401
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:10,120
Speaker 3: side of the globe? Is it any shorter? No, because

402
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 3: you're still going around the circumference of the Earth. Now

403
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 3: you're putting me in a quandary here. I look, I

404
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 3: did okay in science class.

405
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:21,159
Speaker 5: I do.

406
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: But my point was, what if you get a team

407
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 1: like LA and you're the Bills, and you got like

408
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,919
Speaker 1: a four hour five hour flight and they got like

409
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: a nine hour flight. Yeah, that's a difference.

410
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 3: I feel that I get that, and I could see

411
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:36,399
Speaker 3: coaches and it's taking issue with that.

412
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 1: It's four or five hours different from where we're at.

413
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 1: It's like nine hours different from where they are, eight

414
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 1: or nine hours. That's a big difference. And the problem

415
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: is the question is always do you go over like

416
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: right after your previous game, spend the week there, get

417
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:57,159
Speaker 1: acclimated and get up and play the game, or do

418
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: you go like on Friday night and just gut it

419
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: out and play the game on Sunday. Yeah, I think

420
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: most most coaches will tell you they'd rather get their

421
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: Saturday go to sleep, get up, play the game, come home.

422
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 4: Oh but the league, the league won't let them do that.

423
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, that that's too tight for me. I think the

424
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 3: I think the sports science has also said there's too

425
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 3: many of your players two days at least two days

426
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 3: in the news.

427
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: It's an hour a day you can that acclimate. So

428
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 1: if you go if it's a five hour difference, you

429
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: need to go four or five hour days in advance

430
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,919
Speaker 1: to get acclimated one hour a day to adjust it

431
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 1: further and further along, or you go as late as possible,

432
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 1: stay on your own schedule and just get up.

433
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,719
Speaker 3: Well, right, you go over to Europe, they tell you

434
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,239
Speaker 3: don't go to sleep after you land, right, you know,

435
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 3: try to stay up as long as you can, get

436
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 3: acclimated to the time a little.

437
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 1: Early that night local time, and then get up and

438
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: you're at it. That's that's the two.

439
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 3: That's what I've done, and it's worked relatively well.

440
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: I have done that as well.

441
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not the same as playing a football game though.

442
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: No, no, no, You've got to get some you gotta

443
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: you gotta have some coffee to make sure. You know

444
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 1: what I mean. I mean, you go to sleep, do

445
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,400
Speaker 1: you get Yeah, you get a good night's sleep, and

446
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 1: you take a sleeping pill or whatever to get to sleep,

447
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: and you make sure you stay asleep. Then when you

448
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 1: wake up, it's just the opposite. You're you know, your

449
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 1: energy drinking it through the day.

450
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 3: Do you find it easier going west where you're picking

451
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 3: up time or east? I think it's always better go west.

452
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 3: I have a tougher time with that, do you. I

453
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 3: don't know why. I just remember on our honeymoon. We've

454
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 3: we had our honeymoon in Hawaii and we're flying all day.

455
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,879
Speaker 3: By the time we land there. It's two in the

456
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:51,160
Speaker 3: afternoon and it's eight.

457
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 1: O'clock at home, soling and we're flying all day, you're traveling.

458
00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 3: We get there and of course, you know, my new

459
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 3: bride is gung ho, like, hey, not supposed to go

460
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 3: to sleep, Let's stay up. She decides, you know, I'm thinking,

461
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 3: all right, so we'll walk up down the street, maybe

462
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 3: do a little you know, browsing in the shops whatever.

463
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 3: She wants to go hit Diamond Hit. Let's go to

464
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 3: the top of Diamond Hit.

465
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 4: I was like, what.

466
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 3: So there we are climbing up. You know, it's not

467
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 3: a hard climb, so I think it's only seven hundred feet. Anyway,

468
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 3: we climb the thing, we come back down, we get

469
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 3: a bite to eat because I'm starving after that. Now

470
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 3: I'm looking at my watch, which I haven't even changed yet.

471
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 3: Now it's like, well, eleven eleven PM, and I'm all right,

472
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 3: I had a meal, stomach's working. Feel good. So we

473
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 3: go back to the hotel and she's like, all right,

474
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 3: let's just come back here. We'll take a little cat

475
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 3: nap and then we'll head out and you know, hit

476
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 3: the town at night because it'll be night by that time.

477
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 5: There.

478
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 3: We were down for four hours.

479
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 8: It's like.

480
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:58,360
Speaker 1: We were out. It's crashed. It's rough trying to make

481
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: that time change. And yeah, it's that's going to be

482
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 1: an issue. I think if I know this guy, these

483
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,440
Speaker 1: guys Sean and Brandon and all those guys, they will

484
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 1: probably abbreviate the weekend in London.

485
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't see him leave it any sooner Thursday.

486
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:17,360
Speaker 5: Right.

487
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 3: They like their facilities here a lot.

488
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 1: Right, you want.

489
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:25,639
Speaker 3: What preparations you make, it's not going to be there.

490
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 1: It may make a difference if if they have like

491
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 1: a bye week before or after, you know what I mean. Yes,

492
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: if they have a bye week after, maybe they go early,

493
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 1: get acclimated.

494
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 3: And then they have time to recover on the bye week.

495
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,919
Speaker 1: Right, you can recover on the bye week here, that

496
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 1: kind of thing. Or if there's a bye week the

497
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 1: week before in the lead up to it, then what

498
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 1: do you do there. There's a bunch of different ways

499
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 1: to skin that cat. I don't know that anyone has

500
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: been proven to be perfect, but I'll say that we'll

501
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 1: find out. Schedule going west, It's a thing in the

502
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 1: NFL that West coast teams playing on the East Coast.

503
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 1: They get up. They're playing the game at ten am

504
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 1: for one o'clock game Eastern. It's ten am in California.

505
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 1: They do not have a great record, right, It's hard

506
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:21,119
Speaker 1: to do that.

507
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 3: And I remember when Jim Harbaugh was coaching the forty

508
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 3: nine ers, he would come out east for the week

509
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 3: because of that record. I remember they were playing the Bengals.

510
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 3: They set up shop for the week in Columbus, Ohio,

511
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 3: and then the next week they were playing the Ravens.

512
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 3: They stayed here, so mixed success. Sometimes that doesn't work though, either.

513
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,159
Speaker 3: So I don't know that there's a proven formula per

514
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:50,159
Speaker 3: se topic for you today. What new face on the

515
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 3: roster will have the biggest impact in twenty twenty three.

516
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 3: It's not just draft choices that are new to the roster.

517
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 3: We know the free agent additions back in March. There

518
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 3: were two more this week, Latavius Murray and Poon Afford.

519
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 3: And you know, we hope to have Latavius actually on

520
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 3: the show today a little bit later on in the program.

521
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 3: He's got a community effort that he is spearheading in

522
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 3: his native Syracuse, New York, and we'll get him on

523
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,120
Speaker 3: the show and he'll be talking about that you can

524
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 3: find out how you can help Latavius with his fundraising efforts.

525
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 3: So we'll have him along before we're off the air today.

526
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 3: So we look forward to that conversation one of the

527
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 3: newest Buffalo Bills. But we're asking you at eight O

Speaker 3: But in the meantime, we are discussing with you which

542
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,959
Speaker 3: new face on the Bill's roster will have the biggest

00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 3: Bill's live to the phones we go and leading us

548
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 3: off today is Jack in Rochester. What do you got

549
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 3: for us?

550
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 1: Jack?

551
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 7: Well, I'm gonna be a little bold and say Devin Williams,

552
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 7: But not in the way you're thinking. I'm saying that

553
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 7: now that we have two outside linebackers that are fast

554
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 7: and can cover out of the backfield, I think we're

555
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 7: going to switch away from this exclusively nickel defense to

556
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 7: go to more of a blend of four to three

557
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 7: and nickel like the rest of the league does.

558
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 3: Okay, So Dorian Williams is your.

559
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 7: Pick, though, but as an outside linebacker.

560
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 3: Who's in the middle just out of curiosity with that

561
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 3: project job. Okay, So may the best man win?

562
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 1: All right.

563
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 3: So you've got three linebackers on the field, then very

564
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 3: good Jack, All right, So he's got Dorian Williams Matt

565
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 3: Milano on the outside, and then the winner of the

566
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 3: middle linebacker competition from the guys that are left. I

567
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 3: do think there are going to be some noticeable differences

568
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 3: with Sean McDermott calling this defense Steve. It was interesting

569
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 3: because when that decision was first made that Leslie Fraser

570
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 3: was going to take a year off, it happened while

571
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 3: we were at the combine, and Ron Rivera, the Washington

572
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 3: head coach, was at one of the lecterns at the

573
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 3: combine and he was asked, you know, what do you

574
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 3: think about Sean McDermott as a play caller. Stands to

575
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 3: reason that he may very well, in fact, be the

576
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 3: defensive play call for the Bills this coming fall. This

577
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 3: was before that decision was announced, and Ron Rivera had

578
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 3: a one word answer, aggressive. So that's part one because

579
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 3: as you remember, this was a team that did not

580
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 3: blitz a whole lot, and aggressive doesn't necessarily mean blitzing,

581
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 3: but maybe more of it. And then I think he's

582
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 3: going to spin the wheel on personnel usage, whether it's

583
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 3: three safeties or as Jack suggested, three linebackers or some

584
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 3: other iteration. But I think it's gonna change it a

585
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 3: little bit.

586
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's inevitable, although you know, you think

587
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 1: about it, it's pretty high bar. The Bills defense has

588
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: been top five in some cases, top three or top

589
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: two over the last four years. I mean they've had

590
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 1: a nice stretcher where they've been a top flight defense.

591
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 1: They had one year where it was with twenty twenty

592
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: where they weren't as good, or was it twenty two

593
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: one where they weren't as good? But three out of

594
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 1: the last four years they have been stellar. And mcdermom's

595
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 1: gonna take over that with some new faces in key Spot's,

596
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 1: most notably middle linebacker. It will be interesting to see

597
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 1: the differences there are. I eluded in the first segment.

598
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: I thought maybe Tremaine Edmonds was one big reason they

599
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 1: were able to play Nickel so much, him and Taron Johnson.

600
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 1: But if one of those two is not there, what happens?

601
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 3: Right?

602
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 1: How does that change things?

603
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 3: It's a valid question for sure, And we might get

604
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 3: a sneak peek at it in training camp or the preseason,

605
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 3: but probably not the full Monty until the regular season,

606
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 3: knowing how much they keep it under wraps. Back to

607
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 3: the phones and to John on the west side. What

608
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 3: do you got first? John? Yeah?

609
00:32:54,920 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 9: John, go ahead, go ahead, I doing guys, good definuteiefs

Speaker 3: What do you got for us?

612
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 9: Okay, First of all, I want to talk about that

613
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 9: schedule because I was reading online. It's just happened. I

614
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 9: was reading that has already been a linked at the

615
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 9: bluis up in October eighth. They're a which team October

616
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 9: eighth to? Then after that we're going to have a

617
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 9: bye week in London. Oh you guys heard anything about that.

618
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 3: We've heard, We've heard similar We've heard similar rumors. John,

619
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 3: you know, it's all it's all conjecture right now. I

620
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 3: mean until it's official, it's not official.

621
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that would be Yeah, that'd be week.

622
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 1: Uh see.

623
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:42,960

00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 1: Six, week six, we'll see maybe yeah, with a bye

625

Speaker 1: week after Okay.

626
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 3: Makes sense? Yeah, I mean it's it's a logical hypothesis.

627
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 1: I think it's a guest though. Yeah, John, I think

628
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 1: it's just a guess. I don't know why.

629
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 3: I gotta speculate.

630
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 1: We get it and some you know, I it makes

631
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 1: sense that they put it early in the season because

632
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 1: their weather is I don't know if it can't be

633
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:10,760
Speaker 1: worse than ours.

634
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 3: It's a lot like Seattle.

635
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I don't know. Maybe maybe, but we don't

636
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,560

775
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 1: you're training with guys, a different guy, not just a

776
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 1: one on one trainer. You got back into a group

777
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:31,800
Speaker 1: setting and that made a big difference.

778
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 8: Yeah, So I have been training with my guy, especially

779
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:41,279
Speaker 8: like on field stuff, right, like weight room is kind

780
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,040
Speaker 8: of is weight room and you know, and so I

781
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 8: still do that, but as far as on the field,

782
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:51,240
Speaker 8: you know, running sprinting routes and all that, getting around

783
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 8: a group of guys competing, pushing each other like that,

784
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 8: that just kind of tastes it up a notch. And

785
00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,399
Speaker 8: so I think I really enjoyed that. It's made it fun,

786
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 8: it's made it it competitive, and it's what I needed.

787
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 8: And so I definitely have been enjoying that part. And

788
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 8: it's definitely something that I would say the last two

789
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:08,839
Speaker 8: years that I've been doing.

790
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:10,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, because it's like a mindset thing, Like you see

791
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:12,399
Speaker 3: that guy run the route, You're like, let me try

792
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 3: to run even better than him. Absolutely, I ran it

793
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 3: better than him, now, let's see it. Then he wants

794
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 3: to top U and then, but that's just raising everything.

795
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 3: And now you have a more intense workout, you get

796
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:22,439
Speaker 3: more out of it and you get better.

797
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 8: It's like being in a gym. And even when you're

798
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,720
Speaker 8: in the weight room, you see guys throwing weight around,

799
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 8: you don't. You're not trying to go in there and

800
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 8: mess around. It's like, man, let me show let me,

801
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 8: let me show them kind of weight I'm throwing around.

802
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,840
Speaker 1: Even Interestingly enough, you played for New Orleans and Denver

803
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:40,359
Speaker 1: last year. Correct? And is it true? He said true?

804
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: You played in twice overseas last year. Tell me about that.

805
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was. It was actually a cool experience. I

806
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 8: think probably one that maybe only a few people could

807
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,760
Speaker 8: could could actually say, Uh, sign with New Orleans.

808
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 1: Week two.

809
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,359
Speaker 8: We traveled to London, I think a week or so later.

810
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 8: A week later and uh, I played. I got activated

811
00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:08,880
Speaker 8: from practice squad because Alvin Kamara was hurt. Mark Ingram

812
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:11,600
Speaker 8: starts that game, mark Ingram goes down. Next thing you know,

813
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:13,799
Speaker 8: here I was just sitting at home. Not sitting at home,

814
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 8: I was working out. But next thing you know, I'm

815
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 8: playing most of that game. Land in New Orleans at

816
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:25,160
Speaker 8: two am, get a call from Denver about eight am

817
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,879
Speaker 8: or so ten am and was in Denver that next day.

818
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,319
Speaker 1: Well, how did you how that did they release you in?

819
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 5: No?

820
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 8: Well, when you're on practice squad, you can get yeah, yeah,

821
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 8: you can get called up.

822
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 2: So yeah, so.

823
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 8: Yeah I'm on practice swaw so at that point anybody

824
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:43,080
Speaker 8: can take me.

825
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 6: You know.

826
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:45,680
Speaker 1: It took one game. Yeah, you weren't protected.

827
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:49,240
Speaker 8: No one game and I said, you know, Javonte Williams

828
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 8: had ye and a few and so signed with Denver,

829
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 8: like I said, within twenty four hours of being in London,

830
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:58,799
Speaker 8: and then I want to say a week or two later,

831
00:43:58,840 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 8: I was back in line.

832
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 3: Two weeks they had a London they wow scored in

833
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 3: both of those. Nice shame he didn't get the air

834
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:06,359
Speaker 3: Miles man, that would have been great.

835
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:10,239
Speaker 1: Right, the Bills are playing in London, you probably know,

836
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 1: and we don't know what it's gonna be or what

837
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,239
Speaker 1: what game is gonna be. But so, did did you

838
00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:16,760
Speaker 1: play in the same stadium both times?

839
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 5: No?

840
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, you're playing Wimbley and then Hotspital. Okay, so

841
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 1: I thought that was cool too.

842
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 3: Actually, yeah, guy's gonna be picking your brain in that

843
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,400
Speaker 3: locker room, like, hey, what's that field?

844
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:29,359
Speaker 8: Like like everything that time stadium is is.

845
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:30,879
Speaker 3: They got two fields.

846
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 8: That is ridiculous.

847
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 3: The soccer field rotates out, the football field comes up

848
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,080
Speaker 3: from underneath. It's like a whole hydraulic thing. It's unbelievable.

849
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,719
Speaker 8: It's a special stadium. It was really nice, really nice.

850
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,160
Speaker 8: And then Wembley is I played in there I think

851
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 8: twice back with the Vikings and you know a lot

852
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 8: of history and two in that environment was cool.

853
00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,399
Speaker 1: I played in Wembley way back in the day before

854
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 1: the renovation. Really like, that's how I am. Yeah. So

855
00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 1: this Hotsp now the Hotspur Stadium. One of the reasons

856
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:01,759
Speaker 1: that it's really interesting for Bills fans and the Bills

857
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:03,720
Speaker 1: are going to go over there is because they're building

858
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,400
Speaker 1: a new stadium across the street right here, and it

859
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: Tottendham is the model. The model very closely related to

860
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 1: what this one's going to look like. Okay, and you're

861
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,439
Speaker 1: telling me it was Oh it's a palace.

862
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,920
Speaker 8: Nic Yeah, it's really nice, really nice. It was packed

863
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,640
Speaker 8: in their Saints versus Vikings. It was a great atmosphere.

864
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 8: But I think, well, it gives it just a little

865
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:25,760
Speaker 8: bit of cover, right, not fully covered.

866
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:27,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, canopy r Yeah, it was.

867
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:28,880
Speaker 8: It was beautiful.

868
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,319
Speaker 3: So last one I've got four ye other Tavy is

869
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 3: how have the first few days gone here? We know

870
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 3: that this locker room is one that is very welcoming

871
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 3: to new guys on the scene. They put their arms

872
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,759
Speaker 3: around people and let you know, hey, you're part of

873
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 3: the family. Now, how has that gone the first couple.

874
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,399
Speaker 8: Of days, It's been just that, especially from you know, look,

875
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,919
Speaker 8: the guys that I didn't know. I had some relationships

876
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:59,720
Speaker 8: already with Gabe Dawson, Matt Quisponberry, we have the same agent.

877
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,640
Speaker 8: So but you know, even meeting all the other guys

878
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 8: that I didn't know, I see why. You know, they've

879
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 8: had that success. I see why. It's been a special

880
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,719
Speaker 8: locker room you see from afar and so it's really

881
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:14,160

00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 6: Good for me, I would say it would have to

931
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,880
Speaker 6: be Taylor, Taylor Rap or Tyler Rap.

932
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:43,800
Speaker 3: Taylor Taylor Rap, Yeah, Yeah.

933
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:47,120
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah. For a couple of reasons. One, I feel

934
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 6: like you can implore the three safety look more often

935
00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 6: and kind of handle that middle lineback and position more

936
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 6: so as a committee, especially when you get into like

937
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,960
Speaker 6: third down and long or second long. So I really

938
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,920
Speaker 6: feel like he can be beneficial in those situations. And

939
00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:07,560
Speaker 6: then too, from an injury standpoint, I just remember, you know,

940
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 6: a few times last year or throughout the last couple

941
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,919
Speaker 6: of years, when Micah or Jordan went down, I felt

942
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,960
Speaker 6: like my stomach would drop because just the drop off

943
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:19,680
Speaker 6: between them two and then you know the rotational pieces

944
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 6: behind them. So you have a starter caliber and and

945
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:27,040
Speaker 6: Rap that can come in and and and doesn't miss

946
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:29,160
Speaker 6: a beat if one of those two goes down. We

947
00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 6: haven't forbid if one of those two goes down. So uh,

948
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,680
Speaker 6: that's that's my choice. As for the.

949
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:39,399
Speaker 1: Most impacts, makes a lot of sense, Brian, You're right,

950
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:43,279
Speaker 1: and I'll say this too. They're not going to get

951
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:47,760
Speaker 1: healthier the older they get. And last year, by all rights,

952
00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 1: they probably both should have been out with injury, but

953
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 1: Poyer just gutted it out. I mean he was he

954
00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:56,960
Speaker 1: he had all kinds of stuff. He was, he was

955
00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:03,319
Speaker 1: dragging luggage, shoulders, he had that elbow contraption, wearing that

956
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:05,680
Speaker 1: shoulder and then he yeah, and he had to you know,

957
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 1: he had to drive to Kansas City's just one thing

958
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:10,279
Speaker 1: after another with him, and he just said, and I'm

959
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:15,239
Speaker 1: playing and that's it. So yeah, by all rights, we

960
00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:17,840
Speaker 1: probably should have been without both. Hope, Poyer An Hide.

961
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,680
Speaker 1: Don't know what's gonna happen this year, but like I said,

962
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:24,400
Speaker 1: you can't think they're gonna be. It's gonna be. You know,

963
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:28,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna be healthier as thirty year old plus guys.

964
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:30,840
Speaker 1: So yeah, Rap may be the guy who has to

965
00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:32,680
Speaker 1: get called on and we'll find out what he's made of.

966
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,319
Speaker 1: Hopefully he's the same kind of player.

967
00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:37,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, But here's the other thing, good point, here's the

968
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:44,880
Speaker 3: other part of this equation. Taylor Rap, I mean Sean McDermott.

969
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:47,400
Speaker 3: Like many other NFL head coaches, their job is to

970
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:49,040
Speaker 3: get the eleven best players on the field.

971
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:51,040
Speaker 1: Right, he may be one.

972
00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:52,840
Speaker 3: You can make an argument that Taylor Rat might be

973
00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:54,600
Speaker 3: one of the ten best players on this defense or

974
00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:58,080
Speaker 3: eleven best players on this defense. And so as Brian

975
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 3: eluded three safety, look could not only be part of

976
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 3: this defense in certain packages and given weeks against certain opponents,

977
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:12,400
Speaker 3: it may also be a way to mitigate how you

978
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:17,480
Speaker 3: deploy the middle linebacker and fill the middle linebacker spot rights.

979
00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 3: As Brian suggested, you go three safety a good portion

980
00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 3: of the time. Suddenly middle linebacker might become a committee position.

981
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:30,960
Speaker 1: Safety or linebacker or one of those guys. Yeah, it's interesting,

982
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:32,560
Speaker 1: And I don't know who would be the guy to

983
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:34,520
Speaker 1: I guess it would be your middle linebacker would come

984
00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:38,840
Speaker 1: off instead of your and to put the safety on

985
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:39,320
Speaker 1: the field.

986
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:41,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, if it's like a runfit middle linebacker.

987
00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, So yeah, it's it's really interesting because, like

988
00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:50,239
Speaker 1: we said, we keep getting back to it. They've never

989
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:53,000
Speaker 1: been anything but nickel except in short yardage or goal

990
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,360
Speaker 1: line stances right where they get all you know, everybody's

991
00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:58,759
Speaker 1: packed in around the ball. They've always been nickel. But

992
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:02,399
Speaker 1: it's Sean mcdermot's defense now.

993
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 3: So so think about this. What if you see the

994
00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:11,320
Speaker 3: opponent when you're in your regular nickel that we're all

995
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:14,719
Speaker 3: have become familiar with, and they're running right at Terran

996
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:17,640
Speaker 3: with some two hundred and forty pounds back right, you go,

997
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,400
Speaker 3: big nickel and put a rap on the field instead

998
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:23,239
Speaker 3: of Terran, who brings a little bit more size to

999
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 3: the equation, not a ton, but more.

1000
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1001
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:29,920
Speaker 3: I mean that's an option too, absolutely, because he can

1002
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:31,280
Speaker 3: cover slot receivers.

1003
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:33,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's what teams were doing. We saw that.

1004
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 1: You know, we're lobster. We saw that last analyst. We're

1005
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,400
Speaker 1: bringing this to the attention of you know, fans and stuff.

1006
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:41,080
Speaker 1: You do film study, and what teams were doing was

1007
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:44,880
Speaker 1: Bills would get into nickel just like they're always in nickel,

1008
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: and they said, Okay, you're gonna we're gonna run right

1009
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:49,879
Speaker 1: out that nickelback and which is Terran. So they're gonna

1010
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:51,520
Speaker 1: run right at terror, They're gonna have a they're gonna

1011
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 1: pull a big three hundred pound guard out and try

1012
00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 1: and get in space and get Terran to take that

1013
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:59,400
Speaker 1: guy on and just bolt steamroll the guy. That was

1014
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:04,080
Speaker 1: the strategy. The Bills were number two in scoring defense

1015
00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 1: and number one in yards and you know that it

1016
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 1: didn't work that well.

1017
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:10,799
Speaker 3: Plus, but I think Sean McDermott is the kind and

1018
00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 3: probably not unlike any other coach. You see that on film,

1019
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 3: you know other offenses are going.

1020
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:18,000
Speaker 1: To see it.

1021
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:20,480
Speaker 3: So if you saw it a little last year, and

1022
00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 3: you keep things the same, you're gonna see more of

1023
00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 3: it this year. Right, You're gonna have to have a

1024
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:27,800
Speaker 3: solution for that, that's right, or a counter to that.

1025
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:31,719
Speaker 1: That's right, and there's nothing. One of the things that

1026
00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:35,359
Speaker 1: the Bills have going Bill's defense has going for it

1027
00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:37,080
Speaker 1: is the fact they got Josh Allen on the other

1028
00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:40,360
Speaker 1: side hanging points at fast, faster than anybody in the

1029
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:43,239
Speaker 1: league except for Kansas City. They're keeping up with everybody

1030
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,600
Speaker 1: on the scoreboard. So teams do get a little bit

1031
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 1: of that. We can run it if we want, but

1032
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,880
Speaker 1: they're throwing it into the end zone. You know, we

1033
00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:54,120
Speaker 1: got to keep up. So they do get a little

1034
00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:56,880
Speaker 1: benefit from teams, you know, falling behind on the scoreboard

1035
00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:58,960
Speaker 1: and saying, listen, we can't be running this, grinding this

1036
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:01,319
Speaker 1: out because every time we give the ball back to him,

1037
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:03,799
Speaker 1: they're going the distance. There's a little bit of that

1038
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:09,200
Speaker 1: as well. But in other games, and some of these

1039
00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:10,840
Speaker 1: games we've been talking about where it is kind of

1040
00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:12,719
Speaker 1: difficult to heavy it seems like a heavy lift for

1041
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:15,680
Speaker 1: the offense, teams do have the ability to say, listen,

1042
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:18,719
Speaker 1: we're gonna hand it off until you make a stop. Well,

1043
00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:19,600
Speaker 1: you got to make him stop.

1044
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's get back to the phones. We'll go to

1045
00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:25,200
Speaker 3: rich in Tonawanda next. What do you got for us? Rich?

1046
00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:27,000
Speaker 5: Hello, gentlemen.

1047
00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:27,680
Speaker 3: Uh.

1048
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 5: First of all, I'd like to say the privilege of

1049
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:33,920
Speaker 5: coaching lank Yester varsity football for an early twenty five years,

1050
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 5: and I am truly a mock draft junkie. I absolute,

1051
00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:43,080
Speaker 5: I absolutely fell in love with Dalton Kincaid and was

1052
00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:44,879
Speaker 5: hoping that he would be their number one pick.

1053
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:48,120
Speaker 3: We're glad, Yes it did.

1054
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:51,040
Speaker 5: I realized I was looking at highlights, but I did

1055
00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:54,120
Speaker 5: not see a weakness in this game, and I truly

1056
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,240
Speaker 5: look at him as being a nightmare for opposing defense.

1057
00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:59,799
Speaker 5: Is the match up against it, I wouldn't be at

1058
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:03,879
Speaker 5: all surprised or shocked, I should say, if he were

1059
00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:09,160
Speaker 5: their second leading receiver this coming season, Wow, I'm thrilled

1060
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:09,520
Speaker 5: with him.

1061
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:13,759
Speaker 1: All right, that's great, Thanks, Rich, appreciate it. And I'm

1062
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:15,440
Speaker 1: sure that there are a lot of guys around Western

1063
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:17,400
Speaker 1: New York that are pretty happy about having you as

1064
00:55:17,400 --> 00:55:20,000
Speaker 1: a coach. That's nice. If you coach that long, you're

1065
00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:24,440
Speaker 1: doing something right. So congratulations on that. You're right, I

1066
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 1: kincaid is seems like because you always put that high

1067
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:29,319
Speaker 1: draft pick and we can put a little shine on

1068
00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:32,560
Speaker 1: all of them. But you're right, his skill set and

1069
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:36,200
Speaker 1: the way the league is trending, and as productive as

1070
00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:43,919
Speaker 1: he was against really against good teams at a high level. Yeah,

1071
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:46,160
Speaker 1: that's a piece that the Bills would love to use

1072
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:52,920
Speaker 1: and I think utilize. My only caution is this coaching

1073
00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,640
Speaker 1: staff and this team. It's hard. They don't put rookies

1074
00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:57,080
Speaker 1: on the field just to put them on the field.

1075
00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:58,839
Speaker 1: They got to earn it, and it's hard to earn

1076
00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:00,279
Speaker 1: it on this roster. Yeah.

1077
00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:05,640
Speaker 3: I don't know why. I just I feel that he

1078
00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:09,640
Speaker 3: he might be the exception or an exception. Now. Granted,

1079
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:14,320
Speaker 3: early in this roster build there were more exceptions because

1080
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:17,680
Speaker 3: even the rookies were some of the most talented players

1081
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 3: on the roster. Dawkins right away, they had own Humber here.

1082
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,960
Speaker 1: They were starting, they were starting Levi Wallace who was

1083
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:33,160
Speaker 1: an undrafted rookie free agent at corner. So it's different.

1084
00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:34,640
Speaker 1: It was a different it's a different it was a

1085
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:38,839
Speaker 1: different world, and it's a better world now, even though

1086
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 1: it makes us wait on some guys we'd love to

1087
00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:41,600
Speaker 1: see play a little more.

1088
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:45,880
Speaker 3: But I I tend to agree with Rich because I

1089
00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:50,000
Speaker 3: think in time he's going to be the number two option,

1090
00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 3: right behind Diggs, and that's what everybody wanted this offseason.

1091
00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:56,000
Speaker 3: I just don't think they thought it was going to

1092
00:56:56,040 --> 00:56:57,520
Speaker 3: take the form of a tight end. I think that

1093
00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 3: everybody had receiver on the brain. Well, number two target

1094
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:02,920
Speaker 3: can very easily be a tight.

1095
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:06,279
Speaker 1: End, even in a perfect world. How long is it

1096
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:08,719
Speaker 1: gonna take for him to grow into it? You know?

1097
00:57:09,239 --> 00:57:12,319
Speaker 1: I mean? I mean, he's not gonna go in there

1098
00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:15,440
Speaker 1: and take snaps in front of Dulton, Dawson Knox and

1099
00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:19,680
Speaker 1: you know, not week one, maybe not week four, you

1100
00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:21,640
Speaker 1: know what I mean. He's gonna grow into it. Maybe

1101
00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:25,720
Speaker 1: he grows in fast. I don't know. But it's gonna

1102
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:28,200
Speaker 1: be interesting to see how long, if say, all our

1103
00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:33,080
Speaker 1: wildest dreams come true, he's better than Travis Kelcey, how

1104
00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:35,120
Speaker 1: long is it gonna take for us to find that out?

1105
00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:37,080
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? I mean, when's it gonna

1106
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:42,920
Speaker 1: show up? When will he get enough opportunity and production

1107
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:47,360
Speaker 1: to say, listen, you got Sean McDermott in its staff

1108
00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 1: meeting on a Monday after a game going and all

1109
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:53,240
Speaker 1: those guys are going. We gotta get him on the

1110
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:55,760
Speaker 1: field more. We gotta get this guy on the field more.

1111
00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:57,640
Speaker 1: He's doing too much, he's doing too well. We gotta

1112
00:57:57,640 --> 00:57:59,280
Speaker 1: get him on the field. How long is it gonna

1113
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,120
Speaker 1: take for that to happen? And you know that's the

1114
00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:05,480
Speaker 1: real question, right even if everything, all our hopes and

1115
00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,280
Speaker 1: dreams are on the horizon, how to how long does

1116
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:10,200
Speaker 1: it take for them to arrive? That's the real that's

1117
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:16,640
Speaker 1: the real question because it's difficult to earn it because

1118
00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:20,919
Speaker 1: it on your way up. Every mistake sets you back

1119
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:25,439
Speaker 1: twice as long. I mean, that's what kept James Cook

1120
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:28,960
Speaker 1: off the field last year. We all remember his first

1121
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:31,800
Speaker 1: carry is a pro boom. He coughs it up and

1122
00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 1: I was I was talking to Thurman Thomas like we

1123
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:39,160
Speaker 1: didn't see him for a month. He was laughing, as

1124
00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:41,880
Speaker 1: I know, we didn't see him for a month. Yeah,

1125
00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:44,280
Speaker 1: it's once you you know, if these guys keep going

1126
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:46,480
Speaker 1: and then it works just the same the other way.

1127
00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:51,919
Speaker 1: Christian Benford never took a step back and he ended

1128
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:54,720
Speaker 1: up on a daily Yeah, and on day one he's

1129
00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:59,480
Speaker 1: the guy that's it can happen. We just we just

1130
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:03,960
Speaker 1: witnessed it last year at corner, but you know, if

1131
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:07,400
Speaker 1: will it happen at tight end? I do not know.

1132
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:10,240
Speaker 1: It's it's hard to do, man. You gotta go and

1133
00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:13,360
Speaker 1: you got to every single practice, every single game, every

1134
00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:16,600
Speaker 1: single rep. You know, there's not too many step.

1135
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:19,680
Speaker 3: Backwards, you know, keep on keeping on.

1136
00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:21,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I ask really the question, how long will

1137
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:23,800
Speaker 1: it even if he's he is that guy, how long

1138
00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:25,240
Speaker 1: is it going to take for him to prove it? Yeah,

1139
00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:26,440
Speaker 1: that's a real question.

1140
00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:28,920
Speaker 3: Let's head to the tweet sheet to see what you

1141
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:31,120
Speaker 3: think about what new face on the roster we'll have

1142
00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:34,520
Speaker 3: the biggest impact in twenty twenty three. Tweet sheet brought

1143
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:37,000
Speaker 3: to you, as always by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official

1144
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 3: equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills. Bray is first

1145
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:46,640
Speaker 3: on the list, and he says, Osyrus Torrance because he

1146
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:48,760
Speaker 3: looks good enough to lock down the right guard spot

1147
00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:51,440
Speaker 3: and free up Baits to push Spencer Brown at right tackle.

1148
00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:55,360
Speaker 3: I don't know if if Bates is a tackle by trade,

1149
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,720
Speaker 3: as we heard Brandon Bean say, and I quote, Baits

1150
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:02,200
Speaker 3: can get you through a game there, But I would

1151
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:05,480
Speaker 3: argue that he's more of a guard center than he

1152
01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:10,200
Speaker 3: is a guard tackle. That's not to say he's not valuable.

1153
01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:10,600
Speaker 1: He is.

1154
01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:15,360
Speaker 3: His versatility is a huge value to this offensive line,

1155
01:00:15,480 --> 01:00:18,560
Speaker 3: and I wouldn't just dismiss him out of hand that

1156
01:00:18,640 --> 01:00:21,280
Speaker 3: Osiris Torrance is going to overtake him for the position.

1157
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:23,440
Speaker 3: By the time we get to training camp. I think

1158
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:25,480
Speaker 3: there's gonna be a competition there, and a hearty one

1159
01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:28,040
Speaker 3: at that. And it's not just those two guys, it's

1160
01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 3: David Edwards as well, who oh, by the way, as

1161
01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,600
Speaker 3: a three year starter himself coming over from the Rams.

1162
01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:36,800
Speaker 3: So we've said it more than once on this show.

1163
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,000
Speaker 3: Right guard and middle linebacker are going to be the

1164
01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:45,200
Speaker 3: two fiercest position battles in training camp this summer unless

1165
01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:47,560
Speaker 3: someone puts a stranglehold on it here in the spring

1166
01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 3: and you don't really play real football to nail those

1167
01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:55,000
Speaker 3: those positions like that down training camps can to be

1168
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:56,280
Speaker 3: fierce at those two spots.

1169
01:00:56,360 --> 01:01:01,680
Speaker 1: I but her David Edwards, Connor McGovern, Ryan Bits, and

1170
01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:04,360
Speaker 1: then you go down and you got you've got to got.

1171
01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:07,479
Speaker 1: Kevin Jarvis sixty six three, twenty five first year player

1172
01:01:07,440 --> 01:01:11,040
Speaker 1: out of Michigan State. Greg Manz six ' four to

1173
01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:15,200
Speaker 1: three h two, eight year out of Toledo. I mean,

1174
01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:21,200
Speaker 1: then you've got Alec Anderson, Spencer Brown, Deon Dawkins, Tommy Doyle,

1175
01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 1: Ryan Van Demark, kessen Berry. I mean, they got a

1176
01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:32,720
Speaker 1: bunch of guys, and I think last year taught him

1177
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 1: a little something about I mean, they learned this, I

1178
01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:38,040
Speaker 1: think the hard way in twenty eighteen when Josh had

1179
01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,480
Speaker 1: to go in and play and they didn't have anybody

1180
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:44,240
Speaker 1: around him, or actually twenty nineteen when they got to

1181
01:01:44,280 --> 01:01:47,080
Speaker 1: the playoffs and their offensive line just wasn't as good

1182
01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:51,240
Speaker 1: as it should have been. And they have not forgotten that,

1183
01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 1: and they bring in last year they did the same thing.

1184
01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:56,000
Speaker 1: They brought in a ton of guys, and they sifted

1185
01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:59,360
Speaker 1: through them and at first glance and you can say, well,

1186
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:00,960
Speaker 1: they did the same thing last year. Well, these are

1187
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:07,040
Speaker 1: different guys, and these guys to me seem younger, more talented,

1188
01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:10,760
Speaker 1: and physically bigger than they have in the past. Yeah.

1189
01:02:11,520 --> 01:02:15,960
Speaker 3: I mean, you can go round and round, but this

1190
01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:19,040
Speaker 3: offensive line, especially guard to guard, is as deep as

1191
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:23,320
Speaker 3: I've seen it in the McDermott bean era. Let's go

1192
01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:26,479
Speaker 3: back to the tweet sheet. B Hicks says, I hope

1193
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:28,400
Speaker 3: for Connor McGovern to step in and fill the left

1194
01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:31,760
Speaker 3: guard spot with greater impact than Roger Saffold. At times,

1195
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:34,760
Speaker 3: Saffold seemed like a revolving door. So if McGovern lines

1196
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:38,280
Speaker 3: up to the contract, Allen will lives up to the contract,

1197
01:02:38,720 --> 01:02:42,120
Speaker 3: Alan will see a lot more time in the pocket. Yeah,

1198
01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:47,439
Speaker 3: I mean no, there's no second guessing what they think

1199
01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:50,880
Speaker 3: of McGovern. He got the biggest free agent contract for

1200
01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:54,840
Speaker 3: an offensive lineman this offseason for the Bills, So I

1201
01:02:54,880 --> 01:02:58,680
Speaker 3: think the financial investment alone would indicate he is the

1202
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:01,440
Speaker 3: leader in the clubhouse to assume that left guard position

1203
01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:05,240
Speaker 3: left behind by the departed Roger Saffold. Biggest difference between

1204
01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:07,960
Speaker 3: Saffold and McGovern and Steve just pointed out a moment ago.

1205
01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:13,040
Speaker 3: McGovern turns twenty six in November. He's a twenty five

1206
01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:18,480
Speaker 3: year old offensive lineman with starting experience, entering the prime

1207
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:22,880
Speaker 3: of his career. He's not Roger Saffold in year fourteen,

1208
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:26,040
Speaker 3: hanging on hoping to win a Super Bowl. This guy

1209
01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:29,320
Speaker 3: can play, and you would argue he is still on

1210
01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:31,880
Speaker 3: the ascent as a player right now.

1211
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:34,480
Speaker 1: He's not the perfect guy, otherwise he would never be

1212
01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:37,520
Speaker 1: out of Dallas. He's a little better in the run

1213
01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:41,480
Speaker 1: blocking than he is pass pro or I can't. I

1214
01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:44,120
Speaker 1: can't remember the synopsis I read, but that's what the

1215
01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:48,280
Speaker 1: thought was. He's a no, that's right. He's a better

1216
01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 1: pass pro guy than he is a run blocker. That's

1217
01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:52,120
Speaker 1: what it was, and that's why I said, now that's okay,

1218
01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:55,920
Speaker 1: So I'm going to throw the football all the time anyway.

1219
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:59,919
Speaker 1: That's where he's at. But he's he's like Brownie said,

1220
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:03,880
Speaker 1: he's still getting better and I and he's physically gifted.

1221
01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:05,440
Speaker 1: I think he's just the kind of guy you're looking

1222
01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:09,400
Speaker 1: for to be a fixture on your line, and they

1223
01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:11,240
Speaker 1: and I think the Bills saw that too, because he's

1224
01:04:11,280 --> 01:04:12,800
Speaker 1: one of the few guys that got a couple of

1225
01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:14,680
Speaker 1: multi year deal rather than a one year deal.

1226
01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:15,840
Speaker 4: Mm hmm.

1227
01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:22,400
Speaker 3: Tweetsheet from Ed Easy answers Dalton Kincaid and the possibilities

1228
01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:24,840
Speaker 3: he brings to the Bills offense. So Cyrus Torrance is

1229
01:04:24,920 --> 01:04:27,960
Speaker 3: second choice because he gives the Bills offensive line a

1230
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:31,120
Speaker 3: new life for the running game. How much do you

1231
01:04:31,160 --> 01:04:35,000
Speaker 3: think the Torrance pick played off the McGovern's signing, Steve,

1232
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:39,600
Speaker 3: because as you just mentioned, pass pro is McGovern's specialty

1233
01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:45,120
Speaker 3: or strength. For Torrance, he's a road grader in the

1234
01:04:45,160 --> 01:04:45,600
Speaker 3: run game.

1235
01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:47,720
Speaker 1: I think that I think it's just coincidence that there

1236
01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:50,720
Speaker 1: they seem to be opposite, that they were looking for

1237
01:04:50,720 --> 01:04:54,280
Speaker 1: the best. Torrance can't pass protect he can, Yeah, Torrance

1238
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:57,040
Speaker 1: is Yeah, once you get in and plus and get

1239
01:04:57,040 --> 01:05:01,120
Speaker 1: in that when you're playing guard to get engaged quick.

1240
01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:04,840
Speaker 1: And when Torrents gets engaged, it's over. I mean it's

1241
01:05:04,920 --> 01:05:07,640
Speaker 1: like walking into got eleven in a quarter hands. It's

1242
01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:11,520
Speaker 1: like flypaper. You can't get away. So yeah, I like

1243
01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:14,680
Speaker 1: to plus. Both those guys are way over three bills,

1244
01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:17,240
Speaker 1: and there's just a lot of meat in there, you know,

1245
01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:18,560
Speaker 1: It's just a lot of girth.

1246
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:22,800
Speaker 3: He also mentioned Dalton Kincaid, and you know, we've had

1247
01:05:22,800 --> 01:05:27,520
Speaker 3: callers say the same. I understand what you're saying about

1248
01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:29,560
Speaker 3: rookies getting on the field, how it tends to take

1249
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:32,120
Speaker 3: a little longer here in Buffalo under this coaching staff

1250
01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:36,920
Speaker 3: to get significant playing time. I do believe, though, Steve,

1251
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:43,560
Speaker 3: that the long range look for this kid, he's catching

1252
01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:46,840
Speaker 3: eighty balls in a year or two, Like maybe he

1253
01:05:46,880 --> 01:05:51,479
Speaker 3: only catches forty forty five this year, but a couple

1254
01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:54,680
Speaker 3: of years from now, when digs is long in the tooth,

1255
01:05:55,520 --> 01:05:56,960
Speaker 3: and you don't know what the rest of your receiving

1256
01:05:56,960 --> 01:05:59,160
Speaker 3: corps looks like. You know you're still gonna have him.

1257
01:05:59,480 --> 01:06:02,800
Speaker 3: He's gonna be at in eighty eighty five balls a season, right,

1258
01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:08,040
Speaker 3: I mean, am I crazy? I think that's completely within

1259
01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:09,200
Speaker 3: the realm of possibility.

1260
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:11,000
Speaker 1: That's what you want. I mean, you want the guy

1261
01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:14,440
Speaker 1: to grow into one of these. He wanted to grow

1262
01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:17,720
Speaker 1: into that, and my you know this is the same thing.

1263
01:06:17,800 --> 01:06:21,360
Speaker 1: My point a minute agoes. You know how long will

1264
01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:23,000
Speaker 1: that take? Will it take an entire year?

1265
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:27,200
Speaker 3: It just it takes a couple of weeks. Right, Sorry,

1266
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:29,360
Speaker 3: don't mean to put any pressure on the kid, but

1267
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:30,600
Speaker 3: you know it goes.

1268
01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:33,640
Speaker 1: Think about this, though, You've got Digs with one hundred

1269
01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:36,280
Speaker 1: and eight catches last year. Then you've got Davis, Knox

1270
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:40,400
Speaker 1: and Mackenzie, all of them. They had forty forty eight

1271
01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:43,720
Speaker 1: for Knox and Davis, forty two for Mackenzie, and then

1272
01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:47,400
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary had thirty eight. Nobody else had above twenty three.

1273
01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:50,160
Speaker 3: Right, But don't you think they kind of want to

1274
01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:52,560
Speaker 3: take a little of the load off of Digs. Absolutely,

1275
01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:54,960
Speaker 3: I don't know that's a that's a heavy I think

1276
01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:55,360
Speaker 3: you can.

1277
01:06:55,280 --> 01:06:57,160
Speaker 1: Still get him one hundred and eight balls. But I

1278
01:06:57,200 --> 01:06:59,760
Speaker 1: think some of these other guys, and like I said,

1279
01:06:59,920 --> 01:07:02,440
Speaker 1: you cut out the drops and you cut out the turnovers.

1280
01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:08,480
Speaker 1: Diggs got one hundred and twenty catches, Davis has sixty

1281
01:07:08,640 --> 01:07:14,840
Speaker 1: at least. Yeah, you know, Knox probably has fifty five.

1282
01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:19,280
Speaker 1: I mean that's a different world over there. I don't

1283
01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:22,360
Speaker 1: think there's any question that the guys that they drafted,

1284
01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:27,280
Speaker 1: Shorter and Kincaid, they don't have many drops, and they

1285
01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:28,960
Speaker 1: got some contested balls on their film.

1286
01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:32,160
Speaker 3: Shorter had won on his last one hundred and sixteen

1287
01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:33,840
Speaker 3: targets over his final two season.

1288
01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:35,720
Speaker 1: I don't think that's coincidence.

1289
01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:39,280
Speaker 3: And Kincaid had for his entire college career, which spanned

1290
01:07:39,360 --> 01:07:40,240
Speaker 3: five seasons.

1291
01:07:40,560 --> 01:07:41,920
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a coincidence.

1292
01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:48,240
Speaker 3: Hey, number one, how much does coach mcdermy talk about

1293
01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:51,080
Speaker 3: ball security. I mean it's at nauseum, right, I mean

1294
01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:56,000
Speaker 3: it's constant. That's number one, And then number two. Steam

1295
01:07:56,080 --> 01:07:58,080
Speaker 3: was second in the league and dropped passes last year.

1296
01:07:58,840 --> 01:08:03,080
Speaker 3: You can't tell me that sure handedness when looking at

1297
01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:06,960
Speaker 3: a receiving tight end or a receiver did not maybe

1298
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:09,080
Speaker 3: move up a tick or two on the priority list

1299
01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:12,240
Speaker 3: for the full body of work of prospects that the

1300
01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:14,000
Speaker 3: Bills were looking at this year.

1301
01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:17,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll say this. I mean, I'll say it again.

1302
01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:22,200
Speaker 1: Catching the ball is pretty important for a tight end

1303
01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:25,200
Speaker 1: wide receiver. You know, he kind of need to do that.

1304
01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:29,080
Speaker 1: And I get it to Josh doesn't always throw the

1305
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:30,040
Speaker 1: easiest ball to grab.

1306
01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:30,559
Speaker 9: Yea.

1307
01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:33,160
Speaker 3: Sometimes it's outside your body frame and it's coming in.

1308
01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:35,920
Speaker 1: Like a like a laser. Yeah, so I get that.

1309
01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:40,280
Speaker 1: Got to you gotta make that.

1310
01:08:40,400 --> 01:08:42,439
Speaker 3: You gotta be better than a fifty two percent catcher.

1311
01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:43,559
Speaker 1: That's your top job.

1312
01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:46,280
Speaker 3: You've got to be up in the seventies mid seventies

1313
01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:52,720
Speaker 3: at least, and preferably high seventies, low eighties. Fucha on

1314
01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:56,000
Speaker 3: the tweet sheet says, I saw the question, and Kincaid

1315
01:08:56,280 --> 01:09:00,200
Speaker 3: immediately came to mind, because you'll likely have more visible

1316
01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:03,160
Speaker 3: impact in the slot. I had to stop, though, because

1317
01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:06,240
Speaker 3: we have so many promising individuals like Torrents and ford

1318
01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:10,080
Speaker 3: On on the lines that could also easily have an impact.

1319
01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:13,280
Speaker 3: I can't wait to see somebody I haven't seen yet, Steve,

1320
01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:17,200
Speaker 3: And maybe it's just because he's an unknown like Deontay Hardy,

1321
01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:21,960
Speaker 3: Like that guy is a pocket rocket man. He is

1322
01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:25,000
Speaker 3: a playmaker. You go watch his Saints. You know what,

1323
01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:27,160
Speaker 3: we should have Latavious was only there for a couple

1324
01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:29,839
Speaker 3: of weeks, but I should have asked Latavious about Deontay

1325
01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:32,240
Speaker 3: a little bit. Just haven't been around him last year.

1326
01:09:32,760 --> 01:09:37,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I'm very watch his tape. I'm high on

1327
01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:41,880
Speaker 1: that guy. And I'm high on Sherfield as well, because

1328
01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:44,400
Speaker 1: I keep going back to it that the Miami offense

1329
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:47,479
Speaker 1: was singing. I mean it was humming along for about

1330
01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:49,719
Speaker 1: a month and a half right in the middle third

1331
01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:52,040
Speaker 1: of the season, you remember, and they were like killing it.

1332
01:09:52,600 --> 01:09:58,559
Speaker 1: Ta was healthy, uh, Tyreek was going off, Jayalen Wadle

1333
01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:00,400
Speaker 1: was playing extremely well. And in the middle of all

1334
01:10:00,439 --> 01:10:05,000
Speaker 1: of that really high potent, high powered offense, Trent Sherfield

1335
01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:12,360
Speaker 1: carved out targets and and a role and that's that's

1336
01:10:12,400 --> 01:10:13,160
Speaker 1: pretty amazing.

1337
01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:15,240
Speaker 3: And you know who he pushed out to the side,

1338
01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:19,639
Speaker 3: Mike Gesicki, that's right, Gasicki is like if this guy

1339
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:23,160
Speaker 3: leap frog Gasicki And he's not even there anymore.

1340
01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:28,920
Speaker 1: Right, right, So I'm I'm really excited to see Sherfield

1341
01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:33,800
Speaker 1: play in a Bill's uniform and get some see how

1342
01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:37,200
Speaker 1: he does with the targets he gets as well as

1343
01:10:37,240 --> 01:10:42,200
Speaker 1: Deontay Hardy. Both those guys strike me as real guys

1344
01:10:42,200 --> 01:10:45,760
Speaker 1: with real skill sets and some ability that will they'll

1345
01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:48,559
Speaker 1: show through and they'll make big plays out of small

1346
01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:52,160
Speaker 1: plays and make something out of nothing. And I think

1347
01:10:52,200 --> 01:10:54,120
Speaker 1: it's a lot of fun to think about. But it's

1348
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:56,080
Speaker 1: just two more guys that are gonna make it really,

1349
01:10:56,120 --> 01:10:59,560
Speaker 1: really hard to decide who makes that team.

1350
01:11:00,520 --> 01:11:03,120
Speaker 3: Jack on the tweets sheet says Poona Ford is a

1351
01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:04,840
Speaker 3: heck of a run. Stuff are in pretty good at

1352
01:11:04,840 --> 01:11:07,439
Speaker 3: being disruptive in the backfield. If injuries pop up again

1353
01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:09,960
Speaker 3: or if guys underperform, Ford will step in and take

1354
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:13,240
Speaker 3: their jobs. Let's not rule out Harris at running back

1355
01:11:13,280 --> 01:11:16,600
Speaker 3: when healthy guy can break open a game. As we've seen,

1356
01:11:16,760 --> 01:11:20,120
Speaker 3: he's playing for a contract. I like everything that Jack

1357
01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:26,160
Speaker 3: said there first and foremost, though, don't sleep on Ford right.

1358
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:29,599
Speaker 3: Just because he's the last guy that signed of the

1359
01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:32,960
Speaker 3: five at defensive tackle doesn't mean that's where he's gonna

1360
01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:33,760
Speaker 3: be on the depth chart.

1361
01:11:33,880 --> 01:11:35,679
Speaker 4: Here's a couple of things he's gonna compete.

1362
01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:38,479
Speaker 1: Once I found out they were interested in Poona Ford,

1363
01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:41,200
Speaker 1: I told Brownie to do my research for me, so

1364
01:11:41,280 --> 01:11:44,599
Speaker 1: he did. So here's what we found out.

1365
01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:45,280
Speaker 8: He was.

1366
01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:49,880
Speaker 1: He was one of the top twenty defensive tackles in

1367
01:11:49,960 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 1: all of football two years ago, and three years ago

1368
01:11:52,960 --> 01:11:57,000
Speaker 1: and four years ago. Last year, Seattle went from a

1369
01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:59,559
Speaker 1: four to three defensive scheme to a three to four

1370
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:03,519
Speaker 1: and his production fell way off. So he doesn't fit

1371
01:12:03,600 --> 01:12:06,320
Speaker 1: their defensive scheme like he did two, three and four

1372
01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:10,559
Speaker 1: years ago. So he's they're letting him go. Four three

1373
01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:13,200
Speaker 1: teams were lined up to sign him, and he said,

1374
01:12:14,080 --> 01:12:17,680
Speaker 1: he tweeted, I took less money to go play in

1375
01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:19,559
Speaker 1: Buffalo for a year to see if I can win

1376
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:23,439
Speaker 1: a ring. Teams were lined up to sign poot to

1377
01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:27,120
Speaker 1: Ford poon a Ford. They wanted the guy, So he

1378
01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:30,680
Speaker 1: signs with Buffalo. A little bit like von Miller. He said,

1379
01:12:30,760 --> 01:12:36,679
Speaker 1: let's take a shot at this. He's five eleven three ten.

1380
01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:39,519
Speaker 3: Uh, he's a fire.

1381
01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:43,519
Speaker 1: He is. He is a tree stump and he's you know,

1382
01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:45,000
Speaker 1: he had three and a half sacks, had a season

1383
01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:47,679
Speaker 1: high sacks last year playing in a three four where

1384
01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:50,080
Speaker 1: he didn't really fit. But this guy, you watch him

1385
01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:54,800
Speaker 1: play and it's impossible for NFL guards to get underneath him.

1386
01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:56,200
Speaker 3: They can't.

1387
01:12:56,439 --> 01:13:02,679
Speaker 1: The guy is a gopher. He's a three hundred pound gopher.

1388
01:13:02,760 --> 01:13:05,479
Speaker 1: I mean he's almost subterranean. They can't they can't dig

1389
01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:10,160
Speaker 1: him out. So I agree. I love the signing. I

1390
01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:12,799
Speaker 1: love his take on it. I mean, from his own words,

1391
01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:16,920
Speaker 1: so reported, and I think you're right, Jack poon Afford is.

1392
01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:18,639
Speaker 1: I think people are going to start to learn who

1393
01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:20,479
Speaker 1: he is and you're gonna start seeing I think he

1394
01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:22,240
Speaker 1: got a chance to see poon Afford with his own

1395
01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:24,040
Speaker 1: T shirt. That's what I think.

1396
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:28,559
Speaker 3: Meanwhile, Damien Harris Steve is a guy we haven't heard

1397
01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:31,400
Speaker 3: a lot about because he's signed kind of way back

1398
01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:35,280
Speaker 3: in the process. But Bills fans know just who that

1399
01:13:35,280 --> 01:13:38,080
Speaker 3: guy is because he's had some big games against the Bills.

1400
01:13:38,640 --> 01:13:42,360
Speaker 1: And you can't beat him. Join him physical. They brought him.

1401
01:13:42,320 --> 01:13:46,680
Speaker 3: Physical downhill runner who can if he can make the

1402
01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:50,200
Speaker 3: safety miss and then he's going yeh, I mean he's

1403
01:13:50,400 --> 01:13:53,559
Speaker 3: he can. He can scoot now. But even though he's

1404
01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:56,519
Speaker 3: not a two hundred and forty pound guy, he runs

1405
01:13:56,640 --> 01:14:01,599
Speaker 3: tough man, welcomes contact, not afraid to lower the shoulder,

1406
01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:07,360
Speaker 3: and power through and again twenty four years old, you know,

1407
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:12,320
Speaker 3: free agents on one year deals. Twenty four twenty six

1408
01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:15,839
Speaker 3: opponent of four twenty seven young guys.

1409
01:14:16,040 --> 01:14:18,920
Speaker 1: It gives you a chance. And we've talked about it

1410
01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:22,080
Speaker 1: at length about how the Bills began this trend in

1411
01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:25,360
Speaker 1: the NFL of signing guys to one year deals and

1412
01:14:26,320 --> 01:14:29,280
Speaker 1: guys biting at it knowing they could get a chance

1413
01:14:29,400 --> 01:14:32,840
Speaker 1: on it, especially a roster like buffalo, of making a

1414
01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:36,400
Speaker 1: big difference on a really good football team. And if

1415
01:14:36,439 --> 01:14:40,000
Speaker 1: they can do that, then they will get a contract

1416
01:14:40,080 --> 01:14:43,680
Speaker 1: from either from the Bills or from another team. And

1417
01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:48,320
Speaker 1: that is I think it's a great way to do business.

1418
01:14:48,360 --> 01:14:50,880
Speaker 1: Other teams are now more and more starting to emulate it.

1419
01:14:52,360 --> 01:14:54,519
Speaker 1: But all these guys know, you know this, We've seen it.

1420
01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:58,400
Speaker 1: Sean McDermot can look around anybody in the locker room

1421
01:14:58,439 --> 01:14:59,920
Speaker 1: on a one year deal or in the last year

1422
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:02,320
Speaker 1: their deal, saying, listen, you prove it. If you prove that,

1423
01:15:02,360 --> 01:15:04,680
Speaker 1: if you're one of our guys, we will sign you.

1424
01:15:05,760 --> 01:15:08,599
Speaker 1: We'll give you the contract. You can look at Dawson

1425
01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:11,200
Speaker 1: knock one deal that's right. Yeah, Well, if you prove

1426
01:15:11,200 --> 01:15:14,599
Speaker 1: it to us, we'll pay you. Matt Malone found out,

1427
01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:20,040
Speaker 1: Taron Johnson found out, uh, Dawson Knox found out. All

1428
01:15:20,040 --> 01:15:23,479
Speaker 1: those guys and there are some guys that aren't here.

1429
01:15:26,120 --> 01:15:31,960
Speaker 1: So I just you can't think that this doesn't isn't

1430
01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:34,760
Speaker 1: seen by all these players, and this it seems to

1431
01:15:34,800 --> 01:15:37,000
Speaker 1: be working just exactly like you thought about it. I

1432
01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:41,639
Speaker 1: could we know that McDermott Bean used to hang out

1433
01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:43,240
Speaker 1: when they were working with Carolina when he was a

1434
01:15:43,320 --> 01:15:46,479
Speaker 1: coordinator and and Bean was the assistant GM or down

1435
01:15:46,520 --> 01:15:48,840
Speaker 1: the line and personnel guy and stuff. And you see

1436
01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:49,800
Speaker 1: those guys having a beer going.

1437
01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:51,720
Speaker 4: Listen, you know what I would do.

1438
01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:54,080
Speaker 1: Just get these guys one year deals. They come in,

1439
01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:56,040
Speaker 1: You get them a three year deal. They shut it

1440
01:15:56,080 --> 01:15:57,800
Speaker 1: down for two years before they turn it on in

1441
01:15:57,800 --> 01:15:59,880
Speaker 1: that contract year. Just sign them to a one year

1442
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:02,240
Speaker 1: I'm a little extra. You know. They got to think

1443
01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:06,080
Speaker 1: they're gonna get that money because they're gonna make the team.

1444
01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:08,800
Speaker 1: They're smart enough to know that. And then here they are,

1445
01:16:09,920 --> 01:16:11,000
Speaker 1: now the whole league's doing it.

1446
01:16:12,600 --> 01:16:16,080
Speaker 3: We have to take a break here. We will continue

1447
01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:18,320
Speaker 3: to read off some of your better tweets or take

1448
01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:20,000
Speaker 3: a phone call if you want to chime in on

1449
01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:23,240
Speaker 3: who you think among the new faces on the roster

1450
01:16:23,320 --> 01:16:26,080
Speaker 3: we'll have the biggest impact on the twenty twenty three

1451
01:16:26,120 --> 01:16:28,920
Speaker 3: season for the Bills. We're also going to talk about

1452
01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:32,479
Speaker 3: some of this discussion concerning the addition of Puna Ford,

1453
01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 3: the middle linebacker competition and why there could be changes

1454
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:41,160
Speaker 3: forthcoming in terms of how they fit up the run,

1455
01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:44,320
Speaker 3: and why we've got some interesting stats to pass along.

1456
01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:47,120
Speaker 3: Next here on One Bill's Live, presented by Colida Health,

1457
01:16:47,120 --> 01:17:02,400
Speaker 3: It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All right, we're working our way

1458
01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:04,439
Speaker 3: through the tweet sheet here, as we have been asking

1459
01:17:04,439 --> 01:17:06,639
Speaker 3: you all day today, which new face on the roster

1460
01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:09,880
Speaker 3: do you believe will make the biggest impact on the

1461
01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:13,559
Speaker 3: twenty twenty three season for the Bills, and Chris brings

1462
01:17:13,640 --> 01:17:16,720
Speaker 3: up an area that we want to dive into. Chris

1463
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:20,960
Speaker 3: says poona Ford not even close. No more long runs

1464
01:17:21,040 --> 01:17:24,600
Speaker 3: up the middle against US, Go Bills. I know the

1465
01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:27,320
Speaker 3: running game of the Bengals in the divisional playoff was

1466
01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:31,120
Speaker 3: a major bone of contention. Maybe a little recency bias

1467
01:17:31,439 --> 01:17:34,479
Speaker 3: because it was the last game that they played, but

1468
01:17:35,320 --> 01:17:38,880
Speaker 3: there is some credence to the concerns that a number

1469
01:17:38,920 --> 01:17:41,720
Speaker 3: of Bills fans had about how they were getting run

1470
01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:45,519
Speaker 3: on up the middle. I will remind you Daikwan Jones

1471
01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:48,880
Speaker 3: missed that game and that guy played over sixty percent

1472
01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:51,960
Speaker 3: of the snaps in a rotational system in which most

1473
01:17:52,080 --> 01:17:56,200
Speaker 3: players only get about forty eight to fifty. So there

1474
01:17:56,240 --> 01:17:57,880
Speaker 3: was a reason that guy was in there as much

1475
01:17:57,920 --> 01:17:59,760
Speaker 3: as he was. He was the best run stuffer in

1476
01:17:59,760 --> 01:18:03,120
Speaker 3: the group. He missed the game due to injury. Jordan Phillips,

1477
01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:05,280
Speaker 3: as we know, was playing with one arm. And now

1478
01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:09,559
Speaker 3: you're down to Tim Settle, Brandon Bryant and Ed Oliver

1479
01:18:09,640 --> 01:18:11,240
Speaker 3: who was getting double team because they don't have to

1480
01:18:11,240 --> 01:18:12,120
Speaker 3: worry about a nose tack.

1481
01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:14,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, in the last last three weeks of the season,

1482
01:18:14,200 --> 01:18:16,760
Speaker 1: the Bills were not the same team they were. They

1483
01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:18,679
Speaker 1: certainly weren't the same team they were at the beginning

1484
01:18:18,680 --> 01:18:22,559
Speaker 1: of the year when they had Micah Hyde, Jordan Poyer healthy,

1485
01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:26,559
Speaker 1: where they had Von Miller healthy, you know, the whole

1486
01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:33,120
Speaker 1: nine yards, Jordan Phillips, all these guys. So they were

1487
01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:35,160
Speaker 1: not the same team they started the season with. And

1488
01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:36,760
Speaker 1: you can say, hey, that's the way it goes. Yeah,

1489
01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:39,360
Speaker 1: you're right, but it was just too much for them

1490
01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:41,760
Speaker 1: to overcome. They're going to be right back in that

1491
01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:46,519
Speaker 1: same wheelhouse again this year, and they've got to overcome

1492
01:18:46,520 --> 01:18:49,439
Speaker 1: it this year. If you know, whatever injuries they have

1493
01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:53,519
Speaker 1: which is unknown and unpredictable and out of your control.

1494
01:18:53,840 --> 01:18:57,920
Speaker 1: You got to overcome that stuff. Same same thing with

1495
01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:01,240
Speaker 1: you know, with the the more Hamlin thing and all.

1496
01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:03,040
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to overcome some stuff. Don't know what

1497
01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:05,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna be this year, but there's gonna be some stuff.

1498
01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:08,759
Speaker 1: You got to overcome it, and you've got to play

1499
01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:12,840
Speaker 1: well on the day the game happens. Sometimes they just

1500
01:19:12,880 --> 01:19:14,559
Speaker 1: didn't have it in the tank when that happened.

1501
01:19:15,520 --> 01:19:20,439
Speaker 3: So with respect to getting run on, Warren Sharp from

1502
01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:24,840
Speaker 3: Sharp Football Analysis had these interesting statistics in the wake

1503
01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:29,200
Speaker 3: of the Punafords de signing. The Bills allowed just three

1504
01:19:29,240 --> 01:19:33,240
Speaker 3: point four yards per carry when running backs. Opposing running

1505
01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:37,040
Speaker 3: backs ran behind either tackle or around the end, So

1506
01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:41,280
Speaker 3: outside runs three point four yards per carry for Bills opponents.

1507
01:19:41,320 --> 01:19:46,320
Speaker 3: That's a very respectable average against for a defense when

1508
01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:49,639
Speaker 3: running backs attacked the middle of the defensive line guard

1509
01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:54,679
Speaker 3: to guard. Buffalo's run defense ranked thirty first in yards

1510
01:19:54,720 --> 01:19:59,040
Speaker 3: per carry five point one average, last in the league

1511
01:19:59,360 --> 01:20:02,640
Speaker 3: in per percentage of runs that gain ten yards or

1512
01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:08,680
Speaker 3: more sixteen percent, twenty sixth in percent of runs that

1513
01:20:08,800 --> 01:20:13,880
Speaker 3: gained five yards or more thirty eight percent. Between the

1514
01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:17,679
Speaker 3: tackles or the guards in this case was the main

1515
01:20:17,840 --> 01:20:21,040
Speaker 3: sticking point and stumbling block for the Bills run defense,

1516
01:20:22,080 --> 01:20:25,600
Speaker 3: and that was with a healthy day Kwon Jones for

1517
01:20:25,720 --> 01:20:30,479
Speaker 3: seventeen of the eighteen games they played. Poona Ford is

1518
01:20:30,520 --> 01:20:35,800
Speaker 3: a run stuffer by trade, and I would estimate that

1519
01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:43,440
Speaker 3: he helps that statistic considerably, knowing his skill set exactly.

1520
01:20:46,200 --> 01:20:51,720
Speaker 1: They should have the bodies to make a difference in

1521
01:20:51,800 --> 01:20:56,400
Speaker 1: that this year. They should have a deeper pool of

1522
01:20:56,479 --> 01:20:59,320
Speaker 1: talent to go to. They should be able to keep

1523
01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:02,640
Speaker 1: them fresh with the rotation that they use, and they

1524
01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:04,519
Speaker 1: should get They got a guy in poon Afford who's

1525
01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:06,960
Speaker 1: going moving back into a four to three system where

1526
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:12,840
Speaker 1: he had thrived in years past. So I'm yeah, there's

1527
01:21:12,880 --> 01:21:16,120
Speaker 1: every reason to think they're gonna have the horses up

1528
01:21:16,160 --> 01:21:17,800
Speaker 1: front to get it, get done whatever they need to

1529
01:21:17,800 --> 01:21:18,120
Speaker 1: get done.

1530
01:21:18,160 --> 01:21:20,120
Speaker 3: I think he's gonna be a part of regular rotation.

1531
01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:23,920
Speaker 3: I'm just saying it right now. He's just he's so

1532
01:21:24,120 --> 01:21:28,519
Speaker 3: effective because his body type is so unique. You know,

1533
01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:33,080
Speaker 3: he's just so square, right, It's like dry blocking a

1534
01:21:33,160 --> 01:21:36,720
Speaker 3: square block, like there's nothing to get your hands on,

1535
01:21:38,160 --> 01:21:41,320
Speaker 3: and he just people just slide off him because you can't.

1536
01:21:41,680 --> 01:21:44,320
Speaker 3: You can't even bend enough to get your hands under

1537
01:21:44,360 --> 01:21:46,880
Speaker 3: his breastplate, you know what I mean, you can't lift

1538
01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:49,120
Speaker 3: him because he's already down so far.

1539
01:21:49,479 --> 01:21:52,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's he runs well off the edge. This We

1540
01:21:52,640 --> 01:21:55,639
Speaker 1: just saw a sack he had against the Las Vegas

1541
01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:58,439
Speaker 1: Raiders where he comes from the defensive tackle and a

1542
01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:02,160
Speaker 1: four to three gets an arm up under and rips

1543
01:22:02,240 --> 01:22:04,639
Speaker 1: the guard. He gets a wrist, he gets the wrist

1544
01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:07,519
Speaker 1: of the guard lift with his left hand, lifts the

1545
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:09,599
Speaker 1: right arm of the guard up and gets his left

1546
01:22:09,720 --> 01:22:12,120
Speaker 1: arm under the guy's armpit and rips through and gets

1547
01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:16,920
Speaker 1: the sack on Derek Carr just textbook stuff. And then

1548
01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:21,320
Speaker 1: when you watch him do the run game, he literally

1549
01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:23,559
Speaker 1: every time he comes off the ball and gets into

1550
01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:26,400
Speaker 1: the guard, it's like it's like me when I throw

1551
01:22:26,439 --> 01:22:28,200
Speaker 1: the covers over me. I mean, they just can't get

1552
01:22:28,240 --> 01:22:31,200
Speaker 1: they can't get underneath him. He just he just gets

1553
01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:33,799
Speaker 1: them over. He's underneath him. He's like throwing the covers

1554
01:22:33,800 --> 01:22:36,960
Speaker 1: over your head. I mean that's how he looks. So

1555
01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:39,479
Speaker 1: he's you know, they can't get they can't get any

1556
01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:44,200
Speaker 1: pad level on him, and you know, being as girthy

1557
01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:46,400
Speaker 1: as he is, they can't push him unless they get

1558
01:22:46,439 --> 01:22:49,760
Speaker 1: low and get underneath him and you they can't. The

1559
01:22:49,800 --> 01:22:50,959
Speaker 1: guy's five eleven.

1560
01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:54,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm telling you.

1561
01:22:54,600 --> 01:22:57,280
Speaker 1: He fills up the doorway from the doorknob down.

1562
01:22:58,600 --> 01:22:58,960
Speaker 4: Right.

1563
01:22:59,560 --> 01:23:02,080
Speaker 3: He just I'm telling it. It's like trying to push

1564
01:23:02,120 --> 01:23:02,760
Speaker 3: a cinder.

1565
01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:06,320
Speaker 1: Block, that's right. So it's a really good signing for

1566
01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:08,679
Speaker 1: the bills. I'm excited about it as much, I guess,

1567
01:23:09,479 --> 01:23:12,879
Speaker 1: knowing with Brownie and I sitting here, we keep obviously

1568
01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:15,360
Speaker 1: all our listeners keep up with us. We talk about

1569
01:23:15,360 --> 01:23:18,639
Speaker 1: every new guy they get. We're a little excited about

1570
01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:23,200
Speaker 1: poon Afford. We didn't talk about, you know, even Latavious

1571
01:23:23,200 --> 01:23:25,880
Speaker 1: we had him on the show, you know, or the

1572
01:23:25,920 --> 01:23:29,240
Speaker 1: other running back. None of these guys we've talked about

1573
01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:32,519
Speaker 1: with the excitement of poonafod that we're talking about poon Afford.

1574
01:23:33,760 --> 01:23:36,080
Speaker 1: I love big guys. I love having them on the team.

1575
01:23:36,160 --> 01:23:37,680
Speaker 1: I love what they can do, and I love what

1576
01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:40,160
Speaker 1: they mean for the club and the production you can

1577
01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:41,760
Speaker 1: get out of them, and the difference they make for

1578
01:23:41,800 --> 01:23:44,680
Speaker 1: little guys like the ones likely when I played. I

1579
01:23:44,720 --> 01:23:46,519
Speaker 1: love those guys, and poon Afford is a guy that

1580
01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:48,760
Speaker 1: is a difference make, could be a difference maker for

1581
01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:52,200
Speaker 1: this club, and so I'm it's amazing to me that

1582
01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:55,800
Speaker 1: he's the guy that you and I are talking the

1583
01:23:55,880 --> 01:23:56,360
Speaker 1: most about.

1584
01:23:56,439 --> 01:23:59,960
Speaker 3: Let's not forget last year at this time, everybody was

1585
01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:02,599
Speaker 3: talking about all the flashy editions that this team made,

1586
01:24:02,640 --> 01:24:05,960
Speaker 3: and I was excited more. Everybody's pumped about Vaughn and

1587
01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:09,559
Speaker 3: I get why, and everybody was, you know, over the

1588
01:24:09,560 --> 01:24:12,320
Speaker 3: moon about the other editions that this team made, and

1589
01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:15,759
Speaker 3: I was most excited about the defensive lineman that they signed.

1590
01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:19,400
Speaker 3: They got Jordan Phillips back, they signed to Kwan Jones

1591
01:24:19,479 --> 01:24:22,400
Speaker 3: Daikwan Jones, and they got Tim Settle in here, and

1592
01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:25,320
Speaker 3: I said, oh, doctor, you know, we got it. We're

1593
01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:28,479
Speaker 3: gonna have a rotation. Yeah, that's actually gonna get something done. Now,

1594
01:24:28,520 --> 01:24:33,640
Speaker 3: injuries compromised that to a great degree. I don't know.

1595
01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:36,439
Speaker 3: Maybe I just get excited about defensive tackles to him.

1596
01:24:36,880 --> 01:24:37,879
Speaker 3: Maybe have a problem.

1597
01:24:38,160 --> 01:24:38,639
Speaker 4: I don't know.

1598
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:40,960
Speaker 1: But the guys they've got, I mean, they've they've got

1599
01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:43,640
Speaker 1: some bodies down in there, uh start you know, the

1600
01:24:43,920 --> 01:24:46,880
Speaker 1: even the guys they had here last year. Elionku who's

1601
01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:49,120
Speaker 1: been around the club for now still here. Now he's

1602
01:24:49,120 --> 01:24:52,599
Speaker 1: still here. Brandon Bryant Pooneford dayk One Jones, had Oliver,

1603
01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:55,840
Speaker 1: Jordan Phillips, Tim Settle, and then they've got Kendall Vickers.

1604
01:24:55,800 --> 01:24:57,639
Speaker 3: Who they picked up practice squad last year.

1605
01:24:58,040 --> 01:25:00,240
Speaker 1: Uh Cortes, Broughton and el I.

1606
01:25:00,320 --> 01:25:02,519
Speaker 3: Spend some time on the practice squad last year. Those

1607
01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:04,839
Speaker 3: are some of their future free agents that they signed

1608
01:25:04,840 --> 01:25:05,600
Speaker 3: in January.

1609
01:25:05,720 --> 01:25:08,120
Speaker 1: So they got a lot of guys that are going

1610
01:25:08,160 --> 01:25:14,880
Speaker 1: to sort through, and probably defensive end is probably the

1611
01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:18,519
Speaker 1: one where they've got the fewest new guys who are

1612
01:25:18,520 --> 01:25:21,080
Speaker 1: actually gonna have a chance. Kingsley Jonathan he's been around

1613
01:25:21,160 --> 01:25:23,679
Speaker 1: here too, is a defensive end. Is really the only

1614
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:26,639
Speaker 1: name that is not a household name. With Greg Russeau,

1615
01:25:26,720 --> 01:25:29,559
Speaker 1: Shaq Lawson, A j Appanesza, Boogie Bash, and Von Miller,

1616
01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:32,240
Speaker 1: that's about it. That's about all the defensive ends they've

1617
01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:37,320
Speaker 1: got except for Ealy. So defensive tackle, they brought in

1618
01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:39,679
Speaker 1: some dudes to try it out.

1619
01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:43,960
Speaker 3: And Ilionku's the square he's squarely built guy too. The

1620
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:46,200
Speaker 3: difference between him and Poona Ford is he's got about

1621
01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:48,800
Speaker 3: five inches on him. He's about six three sixty four right,

1622
01:25:50,360 --> 01:25:53,759
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's interesting. We have to take a break here.

1623
01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:56,519
Speaker 3: When we come back some final thoughts on the tweet sheet,

1624
01:25:56,800 --> 01:26:02,400
Speaker 3: And we saw Josh Allen play in the match last

1625
01:26:02,479 --> 01:26:07,720
Speaker 3: year with Aaron Rodgers, Patrick Mahomes and others. Who has

1626
01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:12,280
Speaker 3: been slated to play in the match this year. We'll

1627
01:26:12,280 --> 01:26:14,400
Speaker 3: tell you next here on One Bill's Live presented by

1628
01:26:14,439 --> 01:26:29,600
Speaker 3: Colta Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. All Right, I do

1629
01:26:29,760 --> 01:26:32,000
Speaker 3: face on the roster that makes the biggest impact. And

1630
01:26:32,040 --> 01:26:35,439
Speaker 3: final thoughts on the tweet sheet, Koosh says, I personally

1631
01:26:35,439 --> 01:26:38,000
Speaker 3: hope it's Damian Harris. I think that would be really awesome.

1632
01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:40,160
Speaker 3: We'd love to have some great running back play this year.

1633
01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:45,439
Speaker 3: From Bill's News, consolidated Deonte Hardy there. It is because

1634
01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:49,920
Speaker 3: he's surrounded by talent such as Josh Allen and statistically

1635
01:26:50,439 --> 01:26:54,600
Speaker 3: could dominate in yards after catch in comparison to McKenzie.

1636
01:26:55,920 --> 01:26:57,880
Speaker 3: I'm intrigued. I want to see what Hardy can do.

1637
01:26:59,520 --> 01:27:00,679
Speaker 3: My interest just peaked.

1638
01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:04,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's there's a lot of questions about who's gonna

1639
01:27:04,040 --> 01:27:06,200
Speaker 1: be able to contribute. We I don't know that we

1640
01:27:06,280 --> 01:27:08,880
Speaker 1: had these huge questions last year. Maybe it was Gabe Davis.

1641
01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:10,719
Speaker 1: Last year we thought he was gonna spread his wings

1642
01:27:10,720 --> 01:27:13,160
Speaker 1: and do great things. And the listen the offense wasn't

1643
01:27:13,160 --> 01:27:15,559
Speaker 1: broken this last year. It was really good, but you know,

1644
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:17,840
Speaker 1: it always seemed like you say, Brownie, I like the

1645
01:27:17,840 --> 01:27:19,599
Speaker 1: way you said, it seems like a heavy lift. Once

1646
01:27:19,640 --> 01:27:23,000
Speaker 1: in a while they win these games, but sometimes it

1647
01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:25,000
Speaker 1: seems like, wow, it was hard. Well, it's a hard

1648
01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:30,360
Speaker 1: league to win in. But with guys like Hardy Sherfield,

1649
01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:35,160
Speaker 1: Davis Diggs, now you know Knox and Ken Caid, and

1650
01:27:35,320 --> 01:27:38,200
Speaker 1: you know James Cook being the number one guy, re

1651
01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:41,599
Speaker 1: least the starting guy to begin with, it's really gonna

1652
01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:43,599
Speaker 1: be fun to see how it evolves and who gets

1653
01:27:43,680 --> 01:27:45,600
Speaker 1: the ball out of Josh's hands. It's it's gonna be

1654
01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:47,880
Speaker 1: a lot of fun now. This just in Josh is

1655
01:27:47,880 --> 01:27:54,880
Speaker 1: still there too, So I think we thought it last year,

1656
01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:57,280
Speaker 1: and certainly that's true. But I think more so than anything,

1657
01:27:57,360 --> 01:28:02,240
Speaker 1: Ken Dorsey it's gonna be his offense now. It's not

1658
01:28:02,280 --> 01:28:05,040
Speaker 1: gonna be like this extension of day ball and those

1659
01:28:05,120 --> 01:28:05,479
Speaker 1: kind of things.

1660
01:28:06,320 --> 01:28:07,280
Speaker 3: MC's defense.

1661
01:28:07,439 --> 01:28:11,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, more than ever, I think that's really gonna have

1662
01:28:11,280 --> 01:28:12,880
Speaker 1: something to say about what this team looks like when

1663
01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:13,639
Speaker 1: it takes the field.

1664
01:28:14,400 --> 01:28:20,439
Speaker 3: The PGA Tour, Steve has announced the foursome for the match.

1665
01:28:21,080 --> 01:28:24,960
Speaker 3: Last year was Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes up against

1666
01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:30,360
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady. This year, Patrick Mahomes is

1667
01:28:30,439 --> 01:28:35,920
Speaker 3: back with his wingman Travis Kelcey. They will be going

1668
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:41,679
Speaker 3: up against the Splash Brothers, step Steph Curry and Clay

1669
01:28:41,920 --> 01:28:45,880
Speaker 3: Tom Thompson. I know Curry's a big golfer, big time golfer.

1670
01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:50,120
Speaker 3: He even had that show on TV, that miniature golf

1671
01:28:50,360 --> 01:28:54,640
Speaker 3: competition show with some of the most ridiculous like obstacles

1672
01:28:54,680 --> 01:28:58,400
Speaker 3: you've ever seen on a mini golf course in your life.

1673
01:28:58,960 --> 01:29:03,040
Speaker 3: But he's way into golf, so I get it. And

1674
01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:05,920
Speaker 3: you know the guys, the guy's highly visible.

1675
01:29:06,760 --> 01:29:08,559
Speaker 1: That's good though. I like that. I'll watch it.

1676
01:29:08,640 --> 01:29:10,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's I think that would be entertaining.

1677
01:29:11,160 --> 01:29:11,840
Speaker 1: I'll watch it.

1678
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:16,760
Speaker 3: The match is on June twenty ninth, right in the

1679
01:29:16,800 --> 01:29:19,760
Speaker 3: middle of the summer, that announced by the PGS a tour.

1680
01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:22,880
Speaker 3: All right, it's a good time to do it. You know,

1681
01:29:22,920 --> 01:29:26,640
Speaker 3: it's it's the dead time for the football season. Basketball

1682
01:29:26,680 --> 01:29:28,960
Speaker 3: is done by then, you know, even if the Warriors

1683
01:29:28,960 --> 01:29:29,559
Speaker 3: somehow gets to.

1684
01:29:29,560 --> 01:29:32,640
