1 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:07,680 Speaker 1: Well, there is nothing quite like a home opener in Buffalo. 2 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,880 Speaker 1: The afternoons are still warm, the leaves haven't begun to 3 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 1: change on the trees, but it is definitely time for 4 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 1: football here in Western New York. We expect hog Mark 5 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:24,079 Speaker 1: stated to be rocking today. This game could not come 6 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:24,919 Speaker 1: soon enough. 7 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 2: It's finally here. 8 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 3: Got a long eighteen week season and hopefully some more 9 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 3: games after that. 10 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 2: So we gotta focus on the first one though. 11 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: Rolling to his left, gonna step up in the pocket, 12 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: and it's nicked off by a J. F. Vanessa going 13 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 1: the other way. Blockers had cut to the five touchdown 14 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: Buffalo and the passes complete to Shakir gets away for 15 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: the tackle of the forty thirty five Thirty doubles back 16 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: to the twenty, still lose, He's going all the way 17 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:06,279 Speaker 1: the touchdown eighty one yards. Alan steps up with the pocket, 18 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: gonna take off and run. That's the first down, and 19 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: more to the forty to the thirty five thirty breaks 20 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:23,679 Speaker 1: away twenty ten five touchdown. Josh Allen, all right, welcome in. 21 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: I got to a Friday edition of One Bill's Live 22 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: Chicken Skin for everybody. 23 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 2: That was good. 24 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 3: That was really good. We are right, girl, Avin Davis 25 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 3: put that together. That's not if you get a chance going, 26 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 3: that's gotta be up on our Twitter and website and 27 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 3: all that. 28 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 2: Right. 29 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 3: That video we just saw and. 30 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: I would hope it's repurposed properly, good Star social media 31 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: channel and stuff. But yet go, we're ready for the 32 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: home opener, just two days away, forty eight hours away. 33 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: Camper lot's already half full. I was leaving work yesterday afternoon, Steve, 34 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: and there's like eight campers. I know, actually there isn't 35 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: a camper lot anymore, the tradition, the old camper lot's gone. 36 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: But they parked campers here, just on the other side 37 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: of the fence of the parking lot in a residential area, 38 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: and there's like six campers out there yesterday afternoon and 39 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: people just milling about. It's like a four day weekend 40 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: for these people. With the red cups starting early, let's 41 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: go start early. 42 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 3: Just like we were watching Sabers live and just like 43 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 3: they did, we were flipping back and forth. I told 44 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 3: you I had a big watch bar, like eight guys 45 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 3: on my outside of my house. We're watching the game 46 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 3: and we're flipping back and forth watching Jesse take care 47 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 3: of it was. I was like, God, you get that 48 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 3: sick feeling when somebody you know is oh my gosh, 49 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 3: come on. And she turned it around. 50 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: Lost the first set, lost dad two games. In the 51 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: second set, she was down. 52 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 3: She lost the first set six to one. So then 53 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 3: she was like down two games in the second second 54 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 3: set and came back and got it done. And it 55 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 3: was awesome, awesome. She really showed some grit turning it around. 56 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 3: It's fun. 57 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, she's in her first final in a major, the 58 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 1: US Open. She plays tomorrow at four o'clock against the 59 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: number two seeds Sablenka. So that's gonna be a challenge. Yeah, 60 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: but man, good for her making it all the way 61 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: here to the final. Man, I mean chance to win 62 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: her first major title. I know she she won the 63 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: Berlin Open earlier this year, and I think she won 64 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: the tournament up in Canada. 65 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 3: She did, and she also she was just in the finals, 66 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 3: like I guess against Sabolenka in Cincinnati. So they square 67 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 3: it off, Okay, So it's going to be a rematch 68 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 3: to go to school and she'll have a Yeah, she'll 69 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 3: have a chance for a little revenge in that. So 70 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 3: it's it was awesome, man. 71 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: I was Sablenka a power player, Jesse more of a 72 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: serve and volley player, so it'll be interesting to see 73 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: how those two styles match up. Tomorrow four pm. I 74 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: think ESPN's got full coverage of the US Open. So 75 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: if you get a chance tomorrow in between your college 76 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: football viewing, take a look. 77 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, good stuff. Congratulates Can I can't. I'll be glued 78 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 3: to it tomorrow. 79 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 1: This week's game against the Cardinals is presented by Toyota. 80 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 1: Toyota is the official car and truck of the Buffalo Bills, 81 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: and we have to get you the latest practice updates, 82 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 1: which is presented by Lee Coom Lake Erie College of 83 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 1: Osteopathic Medicine. And the good news is it's trending in 84 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: the right direction for Mitch Trubisky. He was listed as 85 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: a full participant yesterday. Coach McDermott wasn't ready to proclaim 86 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: him good to go for Sunday. He wanted to see 87 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: how he comes through today's practice, but he did say 88 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: that he has come through the week well. So things 89 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: are looking up for Trubisk as far as his availability 90 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: as the number two quarterback on Sunday. The bad news 91 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: Javon Salomon not practicing again today. He has not practiced 92 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: all week due to an oblique injury and added to 93 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: the injury report today. Dewan Smoot defensive lineman, not practicing today. 94 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 1: He injured his toe in practice yesterday. Not practicing today, 95 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: so kind of putting his availability in a little bit 96 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: of doubt for Sunday's game. We'll see what he is 97 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: officially listed as when the final injury designation comes out 98 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: later this afternoon. So that's kind of your practice update 99 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: for now. I guess now is as good a time 100 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: as any to go around the NFL, which is presented 101 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 1: by Kalaida Healthy, official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills, 102 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: because gotta talk about last night's game as much as 103 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: we don't want to. Chiefs Ravens kickoff game and the 104 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: Chiefs escape after a late touchdown from Lamar Jackson to 105 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 1: Isaiah Likely, which would have put Baltimore in position to 106 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: win on a two point conversion or tie with an 107 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,359 Speaker 1: extra point, was overturned as Likely's toe was touching the 108 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: end line and it was ruled incomplete. So Chiefs win 109 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: twenty seven to twenty and perhaps the worst development of 110 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: all rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy scored a touchdown the 111 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,799 Speaker 1: first time he touched the ball in an NFL game 112 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: on basically a Jets sweep that he cut up inside 113 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: pretty much went in untouched. Then scored another touchdown in 114 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter that ended up being the game winner 115 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: Thursday night. So it was interesting to hear quarterback Patrick 116 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 1: Mahomes talk about Worthy's impact on the Ravens defense. He 117 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: basically said, just having him out there, it opens up stuff. 118 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: When he's out there, they're playing shelled coverages and it's 119 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: getting guys like Kelsey and Rice open underneath. That's what's 120 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: great about this offense. Able to do all of it, 121 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: and that's when we're at our best. And he's right, 122 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: because last year Mahomes was near the bottom of the 123 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: league in twenty plus yard pass completions because there was 124 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: no way for them to stretch the field offensively with 125 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: their passing game. They decided to make it a priority 126 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: to add speed back to their receiving corps. They did 127 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: that with Worthy and Hollywood Brown, who did not play 128 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: last night, and Worthy made an impact. He made an 129 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: impact on how the Ravens defended the Chiefs passing. 130 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 3: Game, and of course, you know, Bills fans are kind 131 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 3: of clutching their pearls today because he's the guy that 132 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 3: the chief Bills traded with the Chiefs, and the Chiefs 133 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 3: took him with what. 134 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: A pic chief straighted up to the Bill spot to take. 135 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 3: Him right and the Bills moved back. And it's the 136 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 3: key on Coleman trade. Actually it was the second one 137 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 3: that Bills traded again in Carolina. So yeah, it's Bills 138 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 3: fans are like rolling their eyes, going did it have 139 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 3: to be like that last week? Right out of the shoot? 140 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 3: We're going to have to live through this. I'll say 141 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 3: this though. The game last night, it turned out to 142 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 3: be a really good game. It looked like the Chiefs 143 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 3: might get away from the Ravens, but the Ravens didn't 144 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 3: let it happen. They hung in there and a couple 145 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 3: of plays by Lamar Jackson and his crew got it close. 146 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 3: And I'll say this too. It for all of you 147 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 3: who were watching, they score the touchdown and now is it? 148 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 3: And you were seeing on the replays, now was disallowed 149 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 3: later or after a few seconds. As soon as they 150 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 3: score the touchdown. John Harbaugh's on the field going for 151 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 3: two so we're they're gonna try and win it. Yeah, 152 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 3: and man, oh man, you got to love with in 153 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 3: in Arrowhead Stadium opening weekend. You don't you know, you're 154 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 3: not gonna take that team. Don't believe me. You don't 155 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 3: want to take that team to overtime. So he was 156 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 3: doing the right thing, but he was going for it 157 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 3: until you know, obviously the play was disallowed, wasn't a touchdown, 158 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 3: and the game was over because it was a last play. 159 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 3: A nice game. And I'll say this too, A lot 160 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 3: been said this morning in general about the NFL. Don't 161 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 3: forget we were in this spot last year too. The 162 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 3: league wants these games like that last night, close all 163 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 3: right down to the wire, right down to the fine 164 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 3: point final play in regulation, right, I mean, come on, right, 165 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 3: And it would have been the final play with no 166 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:23,959 Speaker 3: time on the clock if they'd have gone for the 167 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 3: two point. Right, That's exactly where the NFL wants these games. 168 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 3: And if you're gonna like and here's the side effect 169 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 3: of that. When you have games that are that close 170 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 3: all the time, invariably it comes down to the officials. 171 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 3: How they handled it at the end of the game. 172 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 3: Did they get this right? Did they get that right, 173 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 3: And all you can ask from those guys is that 174 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 3: they're consistent all the way through. My phone was blown 175 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 3: up today with illegal formation calls. I guess one team 176 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 3: and not the Ravens had a bunch of them. That 177 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 3: Chiefs didn't have any. All of that stuff. It It 178 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 3: goes back and forth, pass interference, all the stuff, the 179 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 3: unnecessary roughness, hit out of bounds on Mahomes, all of it. 180 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 3: But I'll say this, the stuff they call on Mahomes, 181 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 3: I would want them to call again in Josh's favor too, 182 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:12,959 Speaker 3: And we've seen them do it. 183 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, so Josh is good and embellishing too. 184 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 3: And Mahomes did it last night. Heaw a call. Yeah, 185 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 3: they drew call. They draw the call, all of them do. 186 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 3: So if you want the games as tight and exciting 187 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 3: as we all do, you're gonna have to live with 188 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 3: the conversation about the officials making one key call or 189 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 3: that key call this one. It's just gonna be the 190 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 3: way it is because the games come down to less 191 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 3: than a handful of plays when they're these kind of games. 192 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 3: So just get ready for those conversations. It doesn't mean 193 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 3: the officials are worse than they've ever been. I would concede, 194 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 3: or I would put out submit, submit, there you go. 195 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 3: I would submit that they're better than they've ever been. 196 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 3: The game's more complicated, it continues to change constantly, and 197 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 3: they stay on top of it. But the thing is 198 00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 3: the games are closer than they've ever been. They're more 199 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 3: exciting than that I've ever been. And the officials, the 200 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 3: fine point of it is they officials, you gotta make 201 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 3: the call in If they don't. If they do, this 202 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 3: team wins. If they don't, that team wins. The point is, 203 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 3: are they consistent? Is that the way they call it 204 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 3: the whole game, that's the only conversation you should have. Yeah, 205 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 3: and you're gonna have it this year. It's gonna be 206 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 3: that way. The games are gonna be tight again, and 207 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 3: that conversation is gonna be the one, just like it 208 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 3: is this morning. After the Chiefs Ravens. 209 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: Tonight, it's Eagles Packers from sal Polo, Brazil. For those 210 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: that are unaware, that game tonight is a Peacock only game, 211 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: So you will need that streaming service to watch Eagles 212 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: Packers unless you live in Philadelphia or Green Bay, where 213 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: it will be provided on an over the year Network. 214 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: Bengals wide receiver Jamar Chase said he will be a 215 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: game time decision on whether or not he plays on 216 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: Sunday against the Patriots, and the Bengals season opener said 217 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: he is willing to play if a contract extension isn't 218 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: in place. Today was the deadline he had in mind 219 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: for a contract. Jamar, good luck with Mike Brown. 220 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 3: I'll say this, since he said that I had not 221 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 3: heard him talk like that. If he had today in 222 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 3: mind as a contract extension date, that has to mean 223 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 3: he was They were having conversations, which is something I 224 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 3: didn't think they would be doing. 225 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm surprised. 226 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 3: But doesn't that say that to you too? I don't know, 227 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 3: I mean it. He wouldn't say that arbitrarily. 228 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. There's been no. It's been mum 229 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: as to whether or not there is. There are talks, 230 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: there's progress, there's been nothing. It's been crickets out of Cincinnati, 231 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: like when things were getting close with with uh Trent Williams. Oh, 232 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,839 Speaker 1: he's you know, he's traveling to San Francisco. They're close 233 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,079 Speaker 1: to finalizing. Oh, he's in San Francisco. Could get done 234 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: by the end of ten and then all of a 235 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: sudden it was done. We've had we've had nothing on 236 00:12:55,720 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase, and he wants more than his former college teammate, 237 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson, who got thirty five million a year from 238 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: the Vikings. And I don't know, I don't know what 239 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 1: Mike Brown's gonna do here. Maybe ponies it up either. 240 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: It's I mean, they do want him as part of 241 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,719 Speaker 1: their future. I just don't think Mike Brown wants to 242 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,559 Speaker 1: give him an extension now. I think he wants to 243 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: give him one next year, right, wants to hold the 244 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,199 Speaker 1: budget down this year, pay him next year right now. 245 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: Of course by then you might be paying him thirty 246 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: eight million a year but instead of thirty five and change. 247 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 1: But whatever. Jalen Ramsey meanwhile, has struck it rich again. 248 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: The Miami Dolphins have reached an agreement with the veteran 249 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 1: cornerback on a three year extension worth twenty four point 250 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: one million per year, making him the highest paid cornerback 251 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: in NFL history for the second time in his playing career. 252 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: Coach Mike McDaniel confirmed that Friday that Ramsey has signed 253 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: the extension with the new three years seventy two point 254 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 1: three million dollar deal. Ramsey is guaranteed to earn over 255 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: fifty five million starting this season, which means he will 256 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: have the highest career earnings for a cornerback in league history. 257 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: I don't understand this move. Jalen Ramsey is still a 258 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: good cornerback, but he is not the dominant shutdown player 259 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: he was five years ago. He's just not. I'm sorry. 260 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 3: He's thirty. 261 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's now, oldie. 262 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 3: I'm looking right at he's thirty. You're making eight million 263 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 3: this year. 264 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 1: I'll turn thirty in October. But yes, yes, you're right, 265 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: he's not the same guy. I'm sorry. And he's dealing 266 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: with an injury right now. He didn't play at all 267 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: in the preseason. 268 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 3: You know, snow skin off the bills nose, no question. 269 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 3: The guy's got some physical tools. He's and he's been 270 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 3: a very good corner during his career, very very good. 271 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 3: First with the Rams, now with the Dolphins. 272 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: And previously with the Jaguars. And with the Jaguars, let's 273 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: I forget. This is the guy that called Josh Allen trash. 274 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 3: That's right. And so man, oh man, that's to and 275 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 3: they signed him to a how a six year deal. 276 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 3: No three year extension that goes to twenty nine. 277 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: Is it twenty eight? 278 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 3: Twenty eight? That's a long time. 279 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: Don't I don't think he sees the end of that 280 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: deal at all. I think he plays one, maybe two 281 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: more years. I don't think he sees the end of this. 282 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: So to me, it's it's foolhardy money that the Dolphins 283 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: are throwing at a cornerback. And maybe it's because they're desperate. 284 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: They don't have Xavier and Howard anymore. Cater Coo, who's 285 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: a nice slot corner, but he can't play outside. Their 286 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: second round draft pick Cam Smith of a couple of 287 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: years ago was a disappointment in the previous two systems. 288 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 1: We'll see if it changes in the current system with 289 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: their third new defensive coordinator, Weaver. So I don't know. 290 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: Maybe they just felt, well, we got to hold on 291 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: to somebody. Let's throw some money at this guy. They're 292 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: really pecure with how they make financial decisions down there sometimes, 293 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: and this is the latest example of that. Steelers quarterback 294 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson limited in Thursday's practice after reporting tightness in 295 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: the caffe injured during training camp. Coach Tomlin wouldn't say 296 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: when Wilson informed coaches of the tightness, but added the 297 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: quarterback we'll get further evaluated out of an abundance of caution. 298 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: The quote from Tomlin was his caf got tight. We 299 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: wanted to exercise some caution. We'll see what tomorrow looks 300 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: like and go from there. And late word. Right now, 301 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: moments ago out of Steeler's practice, he is watching Justin 302 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: Field's taking first team reps. So Russell Wilson's career as 303 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: the starter for the Steelers maybe over before it's been 304 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: gut Yeah, And I'm just gonna say this, as far 305 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: as the Steelers quarterback position is concerned, I don't know 306 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: that it matters which one place. 307 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 3: From what we saw. No, when we preseason, it was 308 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 3: bad and they could not put the ball in the 309 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 3: air with any effectiveness at all. Their passing game was 310 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 3: just non existent. Uh, their pass protection wasn't good, all 311 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 3: of it. It did not look good. 312 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 313 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 3: So I'm and I app I applauded the Pittsburgh Steelers 314 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 3: in the offseason for getting both those guys, both of 315 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 3: them with a little bit of an upside. Certainly Russ 316 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 3: Wilson with some whatever gas he has left in the 317 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 3: tank is gonna You're gonna get the most out of 318 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 3: it with his guile and his poise. And of course 319 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 3: Justin Fields. Who knows what that guy's gonna be and 320 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 3: why you know his upside what it could be after 321 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 3: he you know, made his exit from Chicago. But you figured, Okay, 322 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 3: the Steelers really took a good swing at it. They 323 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 3: got Russ Wilson on the cheap and they got Justin 324 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 3: Fields same way. And they've got both had huge upsides, 325 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 3: and it doesn't look like either one of them is 326 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 3: going to realize their potential. 327 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: It's rough. Uh, good luck, Mike Tomlin thinking chicken salad 328 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: this year.

That's probably why I couldn't sleep at 384 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 3: the night after. 385 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that was the reason. 386 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 3: But yeah, because I do. It's a nervous habit with me. 387 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: While I'm doing it, I gotta just it's water only 388 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 1: for me, because I if I do anything carbonated, yeah, 389 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: I get it gets too gas in my esophagus and 390 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 1: then I'm like trying to make a call and I'm 391 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: worried something's gonna fly out. That shouldn't you know. The 392 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: last thing you want to be doing is belching on 393 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 1: the middle. 394 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 3: Of a call, the middle of a touchdown R Yeah. Yeah, 395 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 3: that's the thing too. That. Yeah, I always felt like 396 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 3: I needed to keep you know, my mouth not dry, 397 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 3: you know, keep my mouth wet and all of that 398 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 3: stuff so I could keep talking right and all that stuff. 399 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 3: So I'd sip it constantly. Yeah, I'm like throwing. 400 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: I'll have my Pepsi's zero sugar with lunch before the game, 401 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 1: but during the game, it's I gotta just go water. 402 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:33,719 Speaker 1: It's just the safe way to go. 403 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, big habit of mine. 404 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: Okay, Well, you know, we all have our vices. If 405 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: that's your worst one, you're not doing too bad. We 406 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,439 Speaker 1: did have one more note and around the NFL that 407 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: you should be aware of. Sports Business Journal put this 408 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: story out saying NFL's future an international game every week. 409 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: Roger Goodell on Wednesday this week said the league intends 410 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: to go well beyond the current maximum of eight international 411 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: games each season, plus a ninth under the Jaguars unique 412 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: London arrangement. Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt says the 413 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 1: target is double that. Hunt said quote in the short 414 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 1: to medium term, it's realistic to think the league might 415 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: play as many as sixteen games overseas. So Hunt, who 416 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: serves as the International Committee chairman, basically laid it out 417 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 1: that could be sixteen international games, which essentially translates to 418 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: everybody playing one international game a season. The current one 419 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: says you have to play at least one international game. 420 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 3: Every eight years eight years, not every. 421 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: Because the Bills played in London last year. The last 422 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: time they played overseas twenty fifteen. Now you're gonna play 423 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: one every single season. That that's gonna go over like 424 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: a lead balloon. Man. 425 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 3: Well, they're gonna have eighteen games. 426 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: Oh you're saying that will happen when they go to eighteen? 427 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe mightbe that quick. Maybe might be that that quick. 428 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:01,400 Speaker 2: You're going. 429 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 3: You're going because I've already played in in London, you've 430 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 3: played in Germany and now tonight South Paulo, and now 431 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 3: you've played in Mexico City. Right, you're gonna be playing 432 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 3: in you think about it. You're gonna be playing in Paris. 433 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 3: You're gonna be playing in Tokyo, Tokyo, you know, yeah, 434 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 3: Hong Kong. 435 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: If you're asking why they're doing this, it's because of money. 436 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: Because if you put enough games overseas, Now, what what 437 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: can you do, Steve? You can put together an international 438 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: television package to sell to a network, whether it's domestic 439 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: or abroad, whether you're selling it to Sky Sports in 440 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: London or. 441 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 3: I still think NFL City is the way to go. 442 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 1: Well, that is part of the task. 443 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 3: Yes, it is. They're gonna put up Here's what I'm 444 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:58,199 Speaker 3: They're gonna put a destination stadium in some island the 445 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 3: Caribbean and make or like San Juan.

Greg co Sell 476 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: to break down the x's and o's on the film 477 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: in terms of what we should expect from the Arizona 478 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 1: Cardinals and their offense, which now has a new weapon 479 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,640 Speaker 1: in Marvin Harrison Junior. 480 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 3: Maserati Marv, Yeah, I'm excited to see him play very 481 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 3: that's going to be really, really, really good. I think 482 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 3: that's he's the he's the by he's the marquee player 483 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 3: on their roster right now, even with Kyler Murray there, 484 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 3: I think Marvin Harrison Junior is the one that has 485 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 3: more intrigue for a lot of people. 486 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,679 Speaker 1: As polished a route runner as a rookie could be, 487 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: he really he knows how to set up defensive backs 488 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: and that's why he's always open to seemingly make a play. 489 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,959 Speaker 1: And his dad was similar. His dad was relied on 490 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: his speed because just talking to Bill's DBS over the 491 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,360 Speaker 1: years that had to play against Marvin Senior. They used 492 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: to tell me that the problem with him is he 493 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: gets up on your toes so fast. He forces you 494 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 1: to make a decision like I gotta bail here and 495 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: flip my hips and then he breaks his route off. 496 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 3: You got to either turn and run. 497 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: And then if you don't bing, he's behind you and 498 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,120 Speaker 1: it's a touchdown. And he was just very good at 499 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: getting up on a DB's toes super fast, forced them 500 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: into a decision that they don't want to make. Yet 501 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: you can't be patient against Marvin Harrison Senior. That was 502 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 1: the problem. That's why he's so successful, and it's why 503 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: he's in the Hall of Fame. 504 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 3: There you go. 505 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: I don't know if his son plays exactly the same 506 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: way because he's bigger and stronger than his dad was, 507 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: but he's the real deal. So got two of the 508 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: This is what's kind of cool about this weekend's game. 509 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 1: You've got two of the best rookie receivers in the 510 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: class in Harrison Junior and Coleman, and then you've got 511 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: two of the best young tight ends in the league 512 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: in Trey McBride and Dalton Kincaid. I did a write 513 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:30,719 Speaker 1: up for Buffalo Bills dot Com and I called it 514 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: tight End the next Generation because those are two of 515 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 1: the guys that are the next generation of what will 516 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: be household names at the tight end position in the league, 517 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: along with the likes of Sam Laporta and others. You know, 518 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 1: it's been Kelsey Kittle, Mark Andrews, and now the next 519 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 1: generation will be Kincaid McBride, Laporta likely who we saw 520 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 1: last night. Those are gonna be They're gonna make up 521 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: the next generation of pass catching tight ends in the league. 522 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: So kind of ext to see some of that young 523 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: talent on the field on Sunday. I mean, I don't know, 524 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: do you what are your You feel comfortable about Sunday? 525 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: People are always on pins and needles. With the first game, 526 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,959 Speaker 1: you feel resolutely confident, don't you. 527 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 3: I think the Bills are gonna win seventy five to nothing. Wow, 528 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 3: I don't know. I feel good about it. 529 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: I will say history is on your side with that prediction, 530 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: because since nineteen eighty eight, the Arizona Cardinals have played 531 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: in Buffalo because they moved to Arizona in eighty eight, 532 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: they've been here three times. They have lost all three games. 533 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: Average margin of defeat twenty three point three points. 534 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 3: Wow, it's a hard trip coming west to East yea 535 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 3: and early in the season when you got young players, 536 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 3: even like a guy like Marvin Harrison Junior, where it's 537 00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 3: all weird and new and you know, the travels all different. Yeah, 538 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 3: it's a tough adjustment. So they they are up against 539 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 3: it like that. But this Bill's offense is gonna be 540 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 3: a lot to handle for a defense that hasn't gotten 541 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 3: that much better and is injured already. 542 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: So right, their two best pass rushers are out of 543 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: this game. 544 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 3: So they're and they're also playing the quarterback that is 545 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 3: the most difficult in the league to sack. I think 546 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 3: that's that poses some problems for Arizona. They're gonna have 547 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 3: to score some points to keep up. 548 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, we are gonna take a break here, but the 549 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: Obil Friday fan mail bag is open.

Game Day Mentality Steve 562 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 1: is presented by Best Self, Best Self Behavioral Health, the 563 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: official mental health partner of the Buffalo Bills. And we're 564 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: doing this going into game one, so maybe give me 565 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: the mentality Steve. Of the players in week one home opener, 566 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: they know it's going to be an electrically charged atmosphere, 567 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: is what is important about their mindset going into this. 568 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 3: I think in this one, you've got a This is 569 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 3: one of the early games of the season when he 570 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 3: got a lot of new guys on the on the team. 571 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 3: Certainly there's some stuff that you're nobody knows, not even 572 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 3: the players. It's one of those where you go into 573 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 3: the and you say, listen, I'm gonna do this exactly 574 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 3: like the game plan says. I'm gonna go in. I'm 575 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 3: gonna mind my p's and q's you really have to 576 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 3: take a couple of deep breaths because it's opening day 577 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 3: and that we've seen it that places off its rocker, 578 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 3: and you're at home opening of the season. It's gonna 579 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 3: be hard not to just have your head explode because 580 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 3: of the adrenaline you're gonna have to go. So you 581 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 3: got to take a deep breath and go out and play. 582 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 3: And you gotta remember you just gotta play. That's what 583 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 3: you really got to do. It's more about fighting the 584 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 3: urge to do it all in one play when the 585 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 3: when the game and with every play than it is 586 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 3: to go out and just say, hey, let's just go particularly. 587 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 3: And at this point where nobody get none of these 588 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 3: guys got a chance to play in the preseason. They're 589 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 3: probably a little rusty. It's probably you know, to go 590 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 3: out there and play even five plays in a row 591 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 3: is something they haven't done since last year. So there's 592 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 3: a lot of stuff you got to get off your chest, 593 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 3: and you got to get around that in your mind, 594 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 3: and you gotta settle You gotta settle down. It basically 595 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 3: you think you gotta go out, let's go out and fly, 596 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 3: let's get you just gotta settle down for a minute 597 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 3: and really find your footing and then go there's gonna 598 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 3: be plenty of times an opportunity in the regular season 599 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:14,959 Speaker 3: where it's gonna be different than this and very quickly. 600 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 3: But for this one, just get out of the gate, 601 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 3: do things almost like stay in the lines, get some 602 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 3: get some confidence in the game plans, and oh yeah, yeah, yeah, 603 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 3: I see it. I see it. And then then and 604 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,239 Speaker 3: then kind of spread your wings. And I don't want 605 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 3: to say you go out there and don't go out 606 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 3: there and you know full board right out. 607 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 1: There to be aggressive. Just don't be reckless. 608 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, you to make a golf analogy, you make a 609 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 3: really aggressive swing at a conservative target. Okay, you'd play 610 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 3: your swing, you go, but you're doing it in the 611 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 3: game plan. And that's that's kind of the mindset of this. 612 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 3: And only because it's opening game. Every other game I 613 00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 3: think is different. I think it's a lot. 614 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll talk about that next week. 615 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 3: Everything everything's different every you know in this but you 616 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:09,479 Speaker 3: gotta go out and you gotta get get started. Certainly 617 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 3: you can do you can have success in anything. 618 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 4: You know. 619 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 3: You can have success, do it any way you want, 620 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 3: and we've seen it happen like that game last night. 621 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 3: You have to come out with some confidence knowing that 622 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 3: you're gonna do this, but you gotta you gotta earn 623 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 3: that comfort level inside this new offense with these new players. 624 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 1: Can't be jumping out of your skin, right, because then 625 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 1: the focus goes somewhere else in Yeah. 626 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 3: Well, it's like, you know, it's like Josh is you 627 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 3: know we heard on social and some of the things 628 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 3: around Josh comes out of the gate. Well, you know, 629 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 3: you got to peel him off the ceiling. Sometimes he's 630 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 3: throwing nine thousand interceptions in week one. You know, don't 631 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 3: do that. Just relax, take a deep breath, and just 632 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 3: dink and dunk until you get your rhythm. 633 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 1: So that is game day mentality presented by best self. Uh, 634 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 1: we do want to go to the But there is 635 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: a little bit of NFL news to pass along. The 636 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: Steelers and tight end Pat Fryarmouth have agreed to terms 637 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,959 Speaker 1: on a four year, forty eight point four million dollar 638 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,919 Speaker 1: contract extension. Friar Mooth's still just twenty five years old, 639 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: now locked up in Pittsburgh for the long term. You 640 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: gotta believe he's hoping the quarterback situation gets better real fast. 641 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: He's gonna be there for a while. 642 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 3: I'll say this though, forty eight million I'd signed for 643 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 3: four years, of course you would, but that's not much 644 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 3: for a tight end. 645 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 1: That's twelve mine a year. It's pretty good. It is 646 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: good for the tight end position. So good for him. 647 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,359 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, he's been a constant for them 648 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. This is year three. I 649 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:41,799 Speaker 1: think for him, there's another guy that could be in 650 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: the conversation for tight ends the next generation. But let's 651 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: get to the phones at eight oh three, oh five 652 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: to fifty won eighty eight five fifty two, five fifty 653 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 1: so numbers to get on board on this OBL Friday 654 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: fan mailbag, and we lead off today with Jason and Buffalo. 655 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 1: What's up? 656 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 3: Jason, Hello, how are you guys? 657 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:00,959 Speaker 1: We're doing it all right? 658 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 5: Great? 659 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 4: Great? I got two things for Steve keptasker. One thing 660 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 4: just real quick, if I could just state the two 661 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,479 Speaker 4: things I want him to kind of go over. One 662 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:19,439 Speaker 4: is is there any chance that Josh can maybe use 663 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,840 Speaker 4: the no huddle the way Jim Kelly did. Then my 664 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 4: other thing is is something that I've been really really 665 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 4: upset about is the punting, especially in the Kansas City 666 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 4: playoff game. I think it lost us the game. Field 667 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 4: position was terrible in a playoff game. You gotta have 668 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:43,760 Speaker 4: punts that go fifty yards, not thirty. You can't play 669 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,320 Speaker 4: with an injured punter. 670 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 3: Okay, thanks Jason. Yeah, there are times when you can 671 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,360 Speaker 3: go up tempo. And I'll say this too, and perhaps 672 00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:59,800 Speaker 3: one of the things that's maybe next on the horizon 673 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 3: for the the NFL, the no huddle is effective and 674 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 3: can be effective when you get the defense on the 675 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 3: field you want. You can go tempo so that they 676 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 3: don't try and substitute so you can keep them on 677 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 3: the field. The atmosphere in the NFL has evolved to 678 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 3: a different spot now though, where they take their time 679 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 3: pre snap and quarterbacks are so good and so schooled 680 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 3: and so prepared and have so much of their offense 681 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 3: at their fingertips all the time that they use the 682 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,240 Speaker 3: time between plays as long as they can to find 683 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,359 Speaker 3: out exactly what the defense is doing and thereby take 684 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 3: advantage of it, hit it where it's weak. Every defense, no, 685 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 3: there's no perfect defense. Otherwise everybody play the same defense 686 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 3: all the time. There's no perfect defense, so they all 687 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 3: have vulnerabilities and you fit your strengths into their vulnerabilities 688 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 3: and you win games like that. So they take all 689 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 3: the time they can, and this day and age of 690 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 3: the NFL, they take all the time they can between 691 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,240 Speaker 3: plays so they can get the defense and tell them 692 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,720 Speaker 3: before the nap. That's why you see all the motions 693 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 3: and the shifts, and you have different personnel combinations. You 694 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,760 Speaker 3: find out what their coaching staff thinks to your people, 695 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 3: and then you can start to decipher, like, oh, I 696 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 3: see what they think about us. Here's where we're going 697 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 3: to get them. That kind of thing. That's why the opponent. 698 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,400 Speaker 3: That's why you don't see the no huddles so much. 699 00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 2: And I don't want. 700 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:24,880 Speaker 3: My boys. I don't want to talk my boys too 701 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,399 Speaker 3: much because I don't everybody. You know, they're Hall of Fame, 702 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 3: But you had four Hall of famers on the offense. 703 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:33,319 Speaker 3: You had Jim Thurman, Andre and James Lofton, and you 704 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 3: had one of the best centers in franchise history in 705 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:37,480 Speaker 3: Kent Hall, if not a Hall of Famer. You had 706 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 3: the biggest and one of the most athletic offensive lines 707 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 3: in the NFL. When they went to their first Super Bowl, 708 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 3: there were seven guys in the whole NFL all in 709 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 3: the league who were listed at three hundred pounds or more. 710 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 3: There were only seven guys in the whole league at 711 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 3: three hundred pounds. We had three of them on our 712 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:56,439 Speaker 3: front line. They all started they were a little ahead 713 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,959 Speaker 3: of their time physically, so that when you got dude 714 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,440 Speaker 3: like that, you can do whatever you want. If you 715 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:06,879 Speaker 3: go fast, you just overwhelm teams at that point. That's 716 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 3: not the atmosphere in the league today. So that's the 717 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 3: reason why you see him pick tempo when when it's 718 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 3: to their advantage or because they're forced to by the 719 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 3: clock or the score. You don't do it just because 720 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,839 Speaker 3: you're just better. Your guys are better than theirs, Well 721 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 3: let's go and score as many points as we can. 722 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,799 Speaker 1: They do it if they get the opponent in a 723 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 1: personnel grouping that's favorable to what they want to do. Say, hey, 724 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 1: go get on the ball again. We're going so they 725 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 1: can't suck. 726 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 3: That's right. And even when you do that, you got 727 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 3: to get up on the line, and you can still 728 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 3: go up tempo. If you get on the line, don't huddle, 729 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 3: but get on the line and then act like you're 730 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 3: gonna snap it, they won't substitute, and then you can 731 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 3: take your time set on the ball quick, right, if 732 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 3: you get on the ball quick. So that's the subtle differences. 733 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:53,280 Speaker 3: And as far as punty, I don't remember the punting 734 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 3: deal in the AFC Division game last year. If your 735 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 3: guy gets injured, he gets injured, to particular, if it's 736 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 3: during the game, you got to finish the game. That's 737 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:02,400 Speaker 3: a problem. 738 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 1: Pulled his hamstring, that's a problem. 739 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 3: And yes, when you get your punter hurt, it's going 740 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 3: to affect the outcome of the game. I have a 741 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 3: hard time getting past everything that happened in that game 742 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 3: and then coming back and saying the punting is what 743 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 3: caused it. But I yeah, you're right. 744 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: You want to argue it's a factor. I'll listen to. 745 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,720 Speaker 3: That's everything's important in those games. Everything's got to be clicking, 746 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 3: and the punting was one of the things that didn't 747 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 3: click for Buffalo. I mean certainly was a contributor. 748 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: His net punting average was thirty two. In the game, 749 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 1: he only punted twice. I mean, it's not like he 750 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 1: had six punts in the game and the longest return 751 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: against them was fifteen yards. I mean, one return for 752 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 1: fifteen yards. I don't think that killed them. I mean 753 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: maybe you're maybe he's arguing field position. Sure, I mean 754 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 1: the average drive start for Kansas City was their own 755 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 1: thirty five, for Buffalo is their own twenty four. It's 756 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 1: a difference of eleven yards. So maybe there's some hidden 757 00:39:57,920 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 1: yardage in there. 758 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 3: Was that game. That game was here too. It's a 759 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 3: field goal game, and it's and it's whether it's what 760 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 3: is what it is. It's it's hard to it's hard 761 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 3: to play those positions kicker and punter in Buffalo in January, 762 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 3: in December, January, February. It's really hard. 763 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, So that's I mean, that's the best we can 764 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 1: do on that one. I don't I don't think punting 765 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: was the main reason, respectfully. 766 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 5: Uh. 767 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 1: Other questions from the mail bag, This one from Joey. 768 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 1: How many tricks do you think our special teams coach 769 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 1: has up his sleeve? I think the new rules are 770 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 1: begging for reverses and maybe even throwbacks. Love the show. 771 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: I think there is going to be experimentation. The question 772 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: is who has enough guts to throw out the opening salvo? 773 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,720 Speaker 1: In terms of experimentation and something unusual to catch another 774 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: team off guard. Does everybody play it close to the 775 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 1: vest the first week and see if somebody else has 776 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: a good idea, or do they do they go aggressive 777 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 1: and say, let's let it all hang out and maybe 778 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 1: we get lucky and get a touchdown out of this thing. 779 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 3: Certainly, I thought the Chiefs played it conservative, right. They 780 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 3: kicked it, and they kicked it right out of the 781 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:13,399 Speaker 3: end zone. There was like one kickoff return last night 782 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:14,720 Speaker 3: in the first half or whatever. 783 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,279 Speaker 1: And that's saying something because their special teams coach is 784 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 1: very well respected Dave towb. 785 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 786 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 1: I mean, he's been doing it for a long time 787 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,080 Speaker 1: and he just said, I the margin for. 788 00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 3: Error, Yeah, I think so. I think let's let's take 789 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 3: let's here's what we'll do. 790 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 2: Now. 791 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 1: We also have a top three defense. 792 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 3: Let's not forget that, right, And that's that goes into 793 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:33,719 Speaker 3: the mix. 794 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 2: Right. 795 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 3: So he's probably saying, listen, we're gonna kick it out 796 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 3: of the end zone. We're gonna watch everybody else do 797 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 3: it in this hoping we can hope they don't kick 798 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 3: it out of the end zone. Try some stuff and 799 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,760 Speaker 3: then let's reevaluate after a week or two and getting 800 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 3: some some ideas of how it's going to look. I'll 801 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 3: say this from what I saw last night. The one 802 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 3: return I do remember seeing, I think it was a 803 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,319 Speaker 3: Chiefs return. Yeah, I think. I think Tucker put it 804 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 3: right on the goal line and it was a hair's breath, 805 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 3: And they look dangerous to me. 806 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:06,399 Speaker 2: Yeah. 807 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 3: And I when they start trapping those guys and start 808 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 3: crossing those front line blocking guys on the return team 809 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 3: and kicking guys out, I think the timing is gonna 810 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 3: work out really well a lot. And I think you, 811 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 3: I think you're gonna get a bunch of jail breaks 812 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 3: now that I've seen it. I think you're gonna get 813 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:28,799 Speaker 3: a bunch of jail breaks. So yeah, I think they're 814 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:30,719 Speaker 3: still gonna start tinkering with it. And if they want 815 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 3: that to happen, that's fine with me. 816 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 1: Especially for a team that struggles to score points or 817 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 1: stop teams from scoring. 818 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 3: That's right. 819 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: Let your special teams help you. 820 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 3: And historically speaking, the teams every year that are ranked 821 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 3: the best in kickoff return are the ones with the 822 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 3: worst defenses because the most because they get the most practice. 823 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 3: You can't practice it, so they get the most practice, 824 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 3: so they get really good at it and that's that's 825 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,200 Speaker 3: just the way it is.

Earlier this week, 900 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 1: he said last week's stretch of practices were some of 901 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 1: the hardest ones he's had in a Bill's uniform. Yeah, 902 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:24,279 Speaker 1: which kind of made my ears perk up a little bit. 903 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 1: And I'm thinking to myself, well, maybe the coaches felt like, 904 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:29,319 Speaker 1: you know what, the ones didn't get a ton of 905 00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:32,440 Speaker 1: time in the preseason. Let's maybe tune up this week 906 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: of practice going into the long Labor Day weekend where 907 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,720 Speaker 1: they'll have a couple of days off. Were you guys 908 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,399 Speaker 1: doing some pretty intense hitting last week? 909 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was tough. 910 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:44,839 Speaker 6: I think it was a kind of the group consensus 911 00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:46,399 Speaker 6: that we were all kind of kind of be after 912 00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,319 Speaker 6: that week, and uh, you know, added on you know, 913 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 6: the run after practice, kind of like breaking the camel's back. 914 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:55,719 Speaker 6: Like those those were three true dog dog days and 915 00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 6: you know, we felt it, but I think it really 916 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:00,759 Speaker 6: what we needed. And now I I felt great coming 917 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 6: back this week and like I said before, I'm just 918 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 6: ready to go. 919 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 2: But yeah, those days were there were tough. 920 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:08,920 Speaker 3: Does that give you some confidence? I mean, because none 921 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:11,239 Speaker 3: of you guys got to play a lot during the preseason. 922 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 3: It's been like eight or nine months since you last 923 00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:18,120 Speaker 3: you know, got into a live game for any stretch 924 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:19,879 Speaker 3: for more than just you know, a handful of plays 925 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 3: where you knew you're gonna have to start it, rotate 926 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 3: in and finish it.

Dwayne Carter, what have been your 994 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 1: eye observations of him, because it looks like he's going 995 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:03,359 Speaker 1: to be part of your eight man rotation on game day? 996 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 1: What have been your observations of him and how he's 997 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:05,520 Speaker 1: come along. 998 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:06,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he's smart, dude. 999 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:08,680 Speaker 6: I think I think he picks up the defense well 1000 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:12,040 Speaker 6: a terminology what we want to do, and I think 1001 00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:14,400 Speaker 6: he could be a huge asset for us. And you know, 1002 00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 6: we all know how the first couple of games are. 1003 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:18,400 Speaker 6: He's going to have those moments, those lookie moments, and 1004 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,160 Speaker 6: I'm just gonna be there and can you continue to 1005 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 6: encourage him and making sure that he doesn't get discouraged 1006 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:25,919 Speaker 6: from having a couple of bass maps here and there. 1007 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,400 Speaker 6: You know, it's football. I mean, you can't play anything perfectly. 1008 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 6: But I think he could be a huge asset for us. 1009 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 6: And I'm excited to go out there and kind of, 1010 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 6: you know, a line up with him and see what 1011 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:34,520 Speaker 6: he can do. 1012 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:38,320 Speaker 3: So two years ago, who was Leslie Fraser last year's McDermott. 1013 00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:40,360 Speaker 3: Last year you were top five in sacks and sacks 1014 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:43,800 Speaker 3: percentage of the defensive line and and takeaways. And now 1015 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,319 Speaker 3: Bob Babbage is calling the defenses and has been for 1016 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:50,200 Speaker 3: the preseason. What are your thoughts on the difference? You've 1017 00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:52,440 Speaker 3: seen a lot of guys. What are your your thoughts 1018 00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:55,480 Speaker 3: on how that subtly changes things? What's your biggest as 1019 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:58,560 Speaker 3: a player? How are you going to know or recognize 1020 00:51:58,560 --> 00:51:59,839 Speaker 3: there's a different guy calling the place? 1021 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:03,960 Speaker 6: Really, I think it all comes from Bobby's energy. I 1022 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:08,000 Speaker 6: think that's the biggest takeaways and everything. You know, when 1023 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:11,360 Speaker 6: we started, like he's just he's on go and you 1024 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:14,120 Speaker 6: know he again he commands the room and you know, 1025 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:15,960 Speaker 6: I have a lot of respect, but I got easy 1026 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:18,440 Speaker 6: to talk to. We talk about schemes all the time. 1027 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:20,319 Speaker 6: I always try to pick his brain like why would 1028 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:22,600 Speaker 6: you call that? Why would you do that? And he's 1029 00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:25,560 Speaker 6: just someone who's always trying to educate and teach people. 1030 00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:29,560 Speaker 6: And you know, I think he's, you know, very smart 1031 00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 6: when it comes to football, and I think he can 1032 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:32,680 Speaker 6: put it put us in a great position, you know, 1033 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:35,279 Speaker 6: this year, and I'm excited to kind of play under that. 1034 00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:38,279 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the Cardinals a little bit here. I 1035 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 1: know it's a team that you know, was four and 1036 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 1: thirteen last year. Last year is last year. One thing 1037 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: that they've always done well though the last couple of 1038 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 1: years is run the football. You know, James Connor's a load. 1039 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:50,680 Speaker 1: I don't have to tell you that. My question to 1040 00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:52,160 Speaker 1: you is, you know, you can study all the film 1041 00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 1: you want. When you have a cross conference opponent that 1042 00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:57,399 Speaker 1: you don't see a lot, do you try to mind 1043 00:52:57,480 --> 00:52:59,920 Speaker 1: for other information? Like, for example, Tomorrow Hamlin was just 1044 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:01,359 Speaker 1: he made it pitt. I know it was a few 1045 00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:03,680 Speaker 1: years ago, but do you tap into him a little 1046 00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:05,840 Speaker 1: bit and say, hey, Tomorrow, what what's this kid's makeup? 1047 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:09,400 Speaker 1: What's he like? Trey Benson too, Keon played with him 1048 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 1: at Florida State, Like, do you do you pump him 1049 00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:13,799 Speaker 1: for inform it? I'm just kind of curious how deep 1050 00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 1: the level of intel goes when you're getting ready for 1051 00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:17,920 Speaker 1: an opponent that you don't see that often. 1052 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, I know, I know some guys do. From my 1053 00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:22,879 Speaker 6: personal self, I do not. I think it just comes 1054 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:24,680 Speaker 6: down to at the end of the day, having that 1055 00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 6: mindset that it's a different appoint that we don't play 1056 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:28,759 Speaker 6: them a lot, but they have to block me and 1057 00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 6: my skill set and what I bring to the table. 1058 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,239 Speaker 6: I go into the game where no matter what they do, 1059 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,000 Speaker 6: pull double team whatever, they have. 1060 00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:36,360 Speaker 2: To handle me. So that's my mindset. 1061 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:40,319 Speaker 6: So you know, I'll look and study, I'll know what 1062 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 6: they what they like to do with the top you know, 1063 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:46,479 Speaker 6: plays out of what formations, and then after that it's like, okay, 1064 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:50,360 Speaker 6: now stop off making a play and encouraging you know, 1065 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:52,839 Speaker 6: the d lin and tipping them up, tipping them on 1066 00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:54,840 Speaker 6: you know, what do I see and what's coming and 1067 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:55,759 Speaker 6: taking them from there. 1068 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:56,120 Speaker 2: Okay. 1069 00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,440 Speaker 3: Marcus West was the assistant defensive line coach last year. 1070 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 3: Now he's full assistant guy. He commands, he's got the 1071 00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:09,800 Speaker 3: he's got the remote right. So as an eleven year vet, 1072 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:13,279 Speaker 3: sometimes there's an interesting dynamic between a young or a 1073 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:16,200 Speaker 3: new position coach when he comes in the room. Sometimes 1074 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:18,120 Speaker 3: you'll lean on guys like you or say and you 1075 00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:21,600 Speaker 3: get treated with you know, with not an undo, but 1076 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 3: a higher level of respect and deference because he understands 1077 00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 3: you've probably been in this defense longer than he has. 1078 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,359 Speaker 3: You played at a level. How's that relationship? And have 1079 00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:32,080 Speaker 3: you seen Marcus West take over your room on the 1080 00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:33,720 Speaker 3: D line with you got a lot of new guys 1081 00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 3: in there. 1082 00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:36,319 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know for a God's returning. I think we 1083 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:40,440 Speaker 6: all really appreciated how Marcus attacked the coaching aspect of it. 1084 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,920 Speaker 6: He helped helped a lot of us really working on 1085 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,920 Speaker 6: smaller techniques. I know for me, you know, pre practice, 1086 00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:49,359 Speaker 6: even before the games, I'm out there an hour early. 1087 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,399 Speaker 6: I'm working with him on technique stuff that I want 1088 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:55,000 Speaker 6: to work on before practice, before the game. And you 1089 00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 6: know that doesn't go un notice and I feel like 1090 00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:00,279 Speaker 6: that really helped improve my game. Uh here, And he 1091 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:05,000 Speaker 6: just he really likes to teach, teach what he sees 1092 00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:06,520 Speaker 6: and try to get on the same page. And the 1093 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 6: same time, he also relies on me and Vaughn to 1094 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:11,319 Speaker 6: break down some type of you know what, how do 1095 00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:14,680 Speaker 6: I play a certain block versus what he's teaching, and 1096 00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:18,000 Speaker 6: so just that knowing what's coming versus that, Yeah, I 1097 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 6: played it and I experienced it is a little different, 1098 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:23,319 Speaker 6: and he allows us to be those type of leaders 1099 00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:24,879 Speaker 6: in the room which goes a long way, so. 1100 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 1: You can so you can bend it a little bit. 1101 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,520 Speaker 1: It's not like this it's my way or the highway. 1102 00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:30,960 Speaker 1: He'll bend a little bit. If there's something that works 1103 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,399 Speaker 1: for you and it's more effective on the field, why 1104 00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:34,759 Speaker 1: wouldn't you go with what works for the play? 1105 00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:37,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I'm all within the framework of the defense, 1106 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:38,440 Speaker 6: you know what I mean. I'm not trying to go 1107 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:40,920 Speaker 6: out yeah, like whatever it is, but like, but you 1108 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 6: know what works for you? 1109 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:43,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, like what will work for you?

They have 1137 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 6: a couple of new pieces in there, but I think 1138 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,440 Speaker 6: they for the most part, they work very well. And 1139 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 6: Kyler Murray he gets it going and he that dual 1140 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 6: threat to be able to throw the ball out of 1141 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:03,480 Speaker 6: any type of position and be able to kind of 1142 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:06,640 Speaker 6: gash you in a run game too. It's tough to 1143 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:08,400 Speaker 6: stop and we got to make sure we you know, 1144 00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 6: comes Sunday that we are on our piece and Keith 1145 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 6: and make sure we're doing our job and especially up 1146 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:14,759 Speaker 6: front being being our gaps and being sound and when 1147 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 6: it comes the third down and passed, rush to making 1148 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,840 Speaker 6: sure that we have a you know, great lane lane 1149 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,120 Speaker 6: integrity and you know, contain them. 1150 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:24,040 Speaker 1: All Right, It's time now for this week's tim Bits 1151 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:26,920 Speaker 1: time Out, presented by of course Tim Horton's where we 1152 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 1: solicit the fans to ask Bills players a unique question, 1153 00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 1: and this week's question comes from Connor, who asks, what 1154 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:38,240 Speaker 1: is your favorite moment in a Bill's uniform? 1155 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:43,440 Speaker 2: Oh? Favorite moment? You know, I would say, off the 1156 00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:44,760 Speaker 2: top of my head, it would be. 1157 00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:48,480 Speaker 6: You know when when when Damar got hurt and we 1158 00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:52,960 Speaker 6: came back and we played New England, we turned that 1159 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:56,680 Speaker 6: that kickoff. Yeah, I think that was a I mean yeah, 1160 00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 6: I I goosebumps all through my body and that was 1161 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 6: it was just a high that if hard. 1162 00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 3: Explained, it seems supernatural. 1163 00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:04,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, to be able to do that and it 1164 00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 6: was just it was crazy. Yeah, I think I'm probably 1165 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 6: my best moments for sure. 1166 00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 1: I think a lot of fans might agree with you, 1167 00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 1: especially ones that were in the stadium that day. I mean, 1168 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,480 Speaker 1: we're looking at the sideline coaches crying. I was like, 1169 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 1: holy cow, what is going on? It was bananas. That's 1170 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:20,160 Speaker 1: a good pick. That's a good answer to that question. Listen, 1171 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,080 Speaker 1: da Quon, thanks for the time, Good luck on Sunday, 1172 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:27,000 Speaker 1: stay healthy, you get a dub and we'll see you 1173 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:29,320 Speaker 1: down the line here. Appreciate the time as always. That's 1174 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:31,880 Speaker 1: a day Kwon Jones joining us here in studio. We 1175 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 1: have to pivot now to senior producer from NFL Films, 1176 00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:39,040 Speaker 1: Greg Cosell, who's going to be joining us here on 1177 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:42,120 Speaker 1: the line for an update on the x's and o's 1178 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:47,840 Speaker 1: for Bill's Cardinals. His weekly segment is presented by Scott Lonyard, 1179 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 1: an official commercial site work partner of the Buffalo Bills. Greg, 1180 00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:55,320 Speaker 1: thanks for hanging in there and for joining us. We 1181 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:56,080 Speaker 1: appreciate it. 1182 00:58:56,520 --> 00:58:56,640 Speaker 4: Uh. 1183 00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:01,800 Speaker 1: I guess we should begin here. We look at the 1184 00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:05,920 Speaker 1: Cardinals team and obviously they add a major weapon on 1185 00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:10,560 Speaker 1: offense and Marvin Harrison Junior. They have Trey McBride. Those 1186 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 1: are the chief weapons in the passing game. Connor, we 1187 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:17,480 Speaker 1: know is an accomplished back. Do you anticipate their offensive 1188 00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:22,080 Speaker 1: approach changing dramatically or do they just drop Harrison in 1189 00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 1: and kind of still be what they are identity wise? 1190 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:29,840 Speaker 5: I would say they'll be what they are because you 1191 00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 5: have to play to your quarterback, you know, And I 1192 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:36,520 Speaker 5: think you know, I knew i'd be talking about the 1193 00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:38,960 Speaker 5: Arizona Cardinals with you guys. So a couple of weeks ago, 1194 00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:41,880 Speaker 5: I watched every one of Kyler murray snaps from last year, 1195 00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:45,080 Speaker 5: every one of his dropbacks, because he played I think 1196 00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:48,200 Speaker 5: only seven or eight games coming off that acl and 1197 00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:51,320 Speaker 5: Murray is one of those guys that you obviously have 1198 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:55,160 Speaker 5: to be very concerned about making those special secondary action 1199 00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:58,520 Speaker 5: outside of structure plays. There's no question he can make 1200 00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:01,280 Speaker 5: in any given game three, four or five of those 1201 01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,800 Speaker 5: that can break your back. But if you talk about 1202 01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 5: sort of playing the position with nuance, with detail, with subtlety, 1203 01:00:07,640 --> 01:00:12,280 Speaker 5: he's not that guy. And you know, he's very overly 1204 01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:15,880 Speaker 5: reactive to opposing jersey color. Now, he has a strong 1205 01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:19,040 Speaker 5: tendency to perceive pressure, but that's a double edged sword 1206 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 5: because sometimes he'll perceive pressure then get out of the 1207 01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 5: pocket and make one of those plays. But if you're 1208 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:29,240 Speaker 5: thinking of him in terms of playing with instructure, they 1209 01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,800 Speaker 5: have to do a really really good job of getting 1210 01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:35,080 Speaker 5: the primary receiver open. And that's of course where Marvin 1211 01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:39,560 Speaker 5: Harrison comes into play, because the longer he's in the pocket, 1212 01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 5: the more likely he is to just break down. So 1213 01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 5: you know, he's really at his best when he can 1214 01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 5: hit the back foot deliver the ball because pressure is 1215 01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:52,200 Speaker 5: not a factor in that scenario. The coaching staff has 1216 01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:56,040 Speaker 5: to really design concepts for him so it's clean. But 1217 01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:58,520 Speaker 5: so it's a real dichotomy because he can make those 1218 01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:02,440 Speaker 5: plays outside of structure, but he's really not a great quarterback. 1219 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:05,520 Speaker 3: What are the classic ways people defend a quarterback like that? 1220 01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:08,760 Speaker 3: Do they spy him? Do they rush three? Do they 1221 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:10,920 Speaker 3: rush in their you know, they stay in their lanes 1222 01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:12,920 Speaker 3: like they try to do with Josh Allen a little bit. 1223 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:15,040 Speaker 3: They don't, you know, you don't do X stunts and 1224 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:17,440 Speaker 3: that kind of thing. What's the what's the philosophy. 1225 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:22,920 Speaker 5: Normally, you try to squeeze the depth of the pocket 1226 01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:26,440 Speaker 5: because the interior of the old line is responsible for 1227 01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:29,320 Speaker 5: the depth of the pocket, So that's what you're trying 1228 01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 5: to squeeze. You're trying to squeeze the depth of the 1229 01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:34,400 Speaker 5: pocket so that he doesn't see well, I mean, at 1230 01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:36,680 Speaker 5: the end of the day, he's five to ten now. 1231 01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:40,000 Speaker 5: Because he's always been short, he has mastered the ability 1232 01:01:40,040 --> 01:01:43,000 Speaker 5: to make good throws kind of falling away. He can 1233 01:01:43,120 --> 01:01:46,960 Speaker 5: do that because he's had to throughout his career. But 1234 01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:49,080 Speaker 5: that's what you're trying to do. You're trying to squeeze 1235 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 5: him so that he really can't see and he can't 1236 01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:54,240 Speaker 5: step up. But you always have to have a plan 1237 01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 5: to make sure that he doesn't beat you by breaking 1238 01:01:57,200 --> 01:02:00,800 Speaker 5: contain and running with the football. You know, obviously he 1239 01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:04,200 Speaker 5: makes great runs. He's not necessarily a guy that makes 1240 01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:06,920 Speaker 5: a ton of passes on the move. He's much more 1241 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 5: of a runner than a thrower on the move, and 1242 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:12,960 Speaker 5: very often his deeper balls lose energy on the back end, 1243 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 5: particularly if he's a little tight in the pocket. But 1244 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:19,840 Speaker 5: you know, he's the classic discussion these days of what 1245 01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:22,720 Speaker 5: is the balance between the guys who can make plays 1246 01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:27,760 Speaker 5: and how good or maybe not so good are they 1247 01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:30,560 Speaker 5: from the pocket. What's the balance there? Because he's not 1248 01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:33,400 Speaker 5: great from the pocket, but he can burn you. 1249 01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:37,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. Right, looking at their defense, they're kind of up 1250 01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 1: a creek in terms of their pass rush. B j 1251 01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:41,360 Speaker 1: O Jalaris out for the season after tearing an acl 1252 01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:45,800 Speaker 1: last month and now Darius Robinson. They're twenty seventh overall 1253 01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:49,480 Speaker 1: picking round one is out for the first four weeks. 1254 01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:53,920 Speaker 1: Getn't put on the injury list, so it looks like 1255 01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:56,600 Speaker 1: it's up to Zavan Collins to generate pass rush for 1256 01:02:56,640 --> 01:03:01,440 Speaker 1: them off the edge. How much of a concern is 1257 01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:03,040 Speaker 1: that for their pass rush hopes? 1258 01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:04,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1259 01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:09,160 Speaker 5: They are an interesting defense, though, Brownie, because Jonathan Gannon 1260 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:12,760 Speaker 5: is pretty creative in what he does, and last year 1261 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,880 Speaker 5: they started to do some things that were a little different. 1262 01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:18,160 Speaker 5: I mean, if you start, if you watch their tape 1263 01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:20,400 Speaker 5: toward the end of the season, they play a lot 1264 01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:23,480 Speaker 5: of what we call five to one fronts five across 1265 01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:27,200 Speaker 5: one stacked backer, which can be a big problem in 1266 01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:29,960 Speaker 5: the run game at times. But what they do behind 1267 01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:33,720 Speaker 5: that is they would almost play sort of three across. 1268 01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:36,440 Speaker 5: In other words, they would take their slot corner and 1269 01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:39,960 Speaker 5: he'd be back at kind of quarters depth safety level 1270 01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:42,920 Speaker 5: with the other two safeties, So they'd kind of play 1271 01:03:43,040 --> 01:03:45,960 Speaker 5: three across on the back end, and you wouldn't know 1272 01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,600 Speaker 5: who the add in defender would be in the run game. 1273 01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:50,760 Speaker 5: You know, it could be the middle guy, it could 1274 01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:54,440 Speaker 5: be one of the guys on the edge, not on 1275 01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:56,760 Speaker 5: the edge, but on the outside of that three across 1276 01:03:57,320 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 5: and it can pose some problems for who you have 1277 01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,400 Speaker 5: to block is an offensive lineman, because you just don't 1278 01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:05,360 Speaker 5: know who that add in defender is going to be. 1279 01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:09,080 Speaker 5: But they're not. They don't have that one pass rusher 1280 01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:12,760 Speaker 5: that you're truly concerned about, uh so, and they don't 1281 01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:15,360 Speaker 5: have great players on the defensive side of the ball 1282 01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:20,320 Speaker 5: as individual players. So you know, theoretically it's a beatable defense. 1283 01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:26,400 Speaker 5: I think, look right now, I guess you know who's 1284 01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:29,080 Speaker 5: gonna be the corners? Is it? Is it on the outside? 1285 01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:31,400 Speaker 5: Is it Murphy Bunting and Thomas? Is that? Who are 1286 01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:32,680 Speaker 5: going to be the outside corners? 1287 01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:35,080 Speaker 3: Garrett Williams, Garret Williams. 1288 01:04:35,160 --> 01:04:37,680 Speaker 5: Garrett Williams was there, Nickel, he was their slot a 1289 01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:40,240 Speaker 5: year ago. He's there and I think he's yeah, he's 1290 01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:45,840 Speaker 5: better suited to that. Yeah. If the rookie from Rutgers, 1291 01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:48,840 Speaker 5: Max Melton, you know, might get an opportunity to play 1292 01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:50,960 Speaker 5: on the outside. He was a second round pick. You 1293 01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:53,000 Speaker 5: normally draft a corner in the second round. You'd like 1294 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:56,120 Speaker 5: to see him play some but you know, they they 1295 01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 5: just don't have enough talent on the defensive side where 1296 01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 5: they have playmaker the guys who can make impact plays 1297 01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:02,720 Speaker 5: and change games. 1298 01:05:02,800 --> 01:05:06,000 Speaker 3: So what happens greg when you get say, for instance, 1299 01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 3: let's say all their hopes and dreams come true in 1300 01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:11,600 Speaker 3: Marvin Harrison junior. Right, he's everything. He's like Jamar Chase, 1301 01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:14,240 Speaker 3: He's like Justin Jefferson, He's all that. How does he 1302 01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:18,760 Speaker 3: even if he's that guy? What does that do to 1303 01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:20,880 Speaker 3: their offense? When you just drop him in and let's 1304 01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:24,120 Speaker 3: say he is everything they hope he could be? Is 1305 01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:26,280 Speaker 3: Murray the guy that can get him the ball? Is 1306 01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:28,960 Speaker 3: this offensive line? Well you know what's what does his 1307 01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:30,480 Speaker 3: target share do to this offense? 1308 01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:32,920 Speaker 5: Well? You know, Steve, I mean you played in the 1309 01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:35,280 Speaker 5: league with great receivers and you know he can win 1310 01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:37,400 Speaker 5: one on one And I mean it's still a match 1311 01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:40,040 Speaker 5: up league in many ways. I mean, it's it's a 1312 01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:44,439 Speaker 5: numbers the past game is about numbers, matchups, spacing. I mean, 1313 01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:47,320 Speaker 5: he can win one on one matchups. That's what you're hoping. 1314 01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:50,480 Speaker 5: And by the way, they do have pretty good skilled players. 1315 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:53,080 Speaker 5: Michael Wilson is a young receiver in his second year. 1316 01:05:53,320 --> 01:05:56,600 Speaker 5: He's a big, physical receiver. He's a pretty good player. Now, 1317 01:05:56,760 --> 01:06:00,280 Speaker 5: don't sleep on him. McBride is a really good tight 1318 01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:03,080 Speaker 5: end who can line up anywhere in the formation. He's 1319 01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:06,080 Speaker 5: not just an attached player. And they've got two pretty 1320 01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:08,440 Speaker 5: good backs. We know about Connor, he's been in the league. 1321 01:06:08,480 --> 01:06:11,479 Speaker 5: He's a good player. I really like Trey Benson coming 1322 01:06:11,480 --> 01:06:13,320 Speaker 5: out of Florida State. So I don't know what their 1323 01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:16,360 Speaker 5: plan is in terms of the division of labor, but 1324 01:06:16,560 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 5: they've got good, good skilled players. Now they're moving Paris 1325 01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:25,040 Speaker 5: Johnson from right tackle to left tackle. In watching their 1326 01:06:25,080 --> 01:06:27,080 Speaker 5: tape in those whatever number of games it was that 1327 01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:29,200 Speaker 5: I watched Murray, I thought there were times he struggled 1328 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:31,040 Speaker 5: a bit at a right tackle. We'll see how he 1329 01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:34,959 Speaker 5: handles left tackle. But Marvin Harrison can win one on one, 1330 01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 5: and that changes everything for a quarterback because if Murray 1331 01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:40,920 Speaker 5: feels comfortable throwing it to him one on one and 1332 01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:44,280 Speaker 5: he's going to make those catches, that changes your offense. 1333 01:06:44,760 --> 01:06:45,360 Speaker 2: Right. 1334 01:06:45,480 --> 01:06:48,680 Speaker 1: Speaking of offense, you know, the one hundred million dollar 1335 01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:52,120 Speaker 1: question is exactly what Buffalo's offense is going to look 1336 01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 1: like under Joe Brady. Some people wonder was he just 1337 01:06:56,800 --> 01:07:00,920 Speaker 1: triaging the offense last year to just play winning football 1338 01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:03,280 Speaker 1: and what will be his true stamp on the offense 1339 01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:07,240 Speaker 1: this year as permanent OC with all of the turnover 1340 01:07:08,280 --> 01:07:10,840 Speaker 1: at the receiver position, greg with four new guys of 1341 01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:14,600 Speaker 1: the five yeah at the receiver position, is it logical 1342 01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:16,840 Speaker 1: to think he will lean on the running game early 1343 01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:19,200 Speaker 1: while the passing game finds its footing. 1344 01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:22,320 Speaker 5: Very possible. And I made it a point to watch 1345 01:07:22,360 --> 01:07:24,439 Speaker 5: a ton of James Cook. Actually did that this week 1346 01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:26,880 Speaker 5: because I wanted to, you know, be prepared to talk 1347 01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:30,240 Speaker 5: to you guys today and really revisit James Cook from 1348 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:32,080 Speaker 5: a year ago. And I got to tell you what 1349 01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:34,960 Speaker 5: really stood out to me, guys, how multiple their run 1350 01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:38,960 Speaker 5: game was. You know, you think, obviously everybody thinks about 1351 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:41,720 Speaker 5: the Bills as Josh Allen, Josh Allen, Josh Allen. But 1352 01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:45,000 Speaker 5: I thought their run game was really multiple. I thought 1353 01:07:45,040 --> 01:07:47,840 Speaker 5: they did a lot of things. I really like the 1354 01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:50,200 Speaker 5: way James Cook runs the ball. Now, granted he's not 1355 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:53,120 Speaker 5: a two hundred and fifteen pounds back. He runs hard, 1356 01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:56,040 Speaker 5: but he's not purely powerful because he's not that big. 1357 01:07:56,280 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 5: And obviously we'll see what Davis, you know, how he's 1358 01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:02,400 Speaker 5: the Voyd within the context of their run game. But 1359 01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:04,920 Speaker 5: I thought it was a really impressive run game in 1360 01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:07,520 Speaker 5: terms of the multiplicity of concepts. 1361 01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, and we talk a lot about why James Cook was, 1362 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:16,960 Speaker 3: you know, so intriguing when he came out. He can 1363 01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:18,760 Speaker 3: catch the ball, he can run with the ball. He's 1364 01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:22,720 Speaker 3: not a big dude, but he is versatile. And when 1365 01:08:22,840 --> 01:08:25,800 Speaker 3: Joe Brady took over, the team started to run the 1366 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:31,280 Speaker 3: ball a lot more in yes, in runner pass situations, 1367 01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:34,920 Speaker 3: in those neutral situations, and Cook seemed to thrive in that. 1368 01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:38,040 Speaker 3: And although and so did Ty Johnson, and of course 1369 01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:41,240 Speaker 3: Ray Davis may do that this year. If is there 1370 01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:43,720 Speaker 3: a scenario you can think of where the Bills do 1371 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:47,519 Speaker 3: become this team that runs at fifty to fifty or thereabouts, And. 1372 01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:50,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think anybody really runs at fifty to fifty. See, 1373 01:08:50,560 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 5: but I know what you're saying, Yeah, that will it 1374 01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:55,599 Speaker 5: become you know, more balanced, to use the cliched word, 1375 01:08:56,160 --> 01:08:59,799 Speaker 5: it could. I mean, look, I've always been a believer, 1376 01:08:59,880 --> 01:09:01,479 Speaker 5: and I know the league is not like this, but 1377 01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:04,479 Speaker 5: I've always been a believer in putting your quarterback under center, 1378 01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:07,320 Speaker 5: running the ball. I think play action under center is 1379 01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:10,599 Speaker 5: more effective play action than play action in the gun. 1380 01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:15,160 Speaker 5: So you know, we'll see. But you know, Hook, besides 1381 01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:18,439 Speaker 5: the multiplicity of the run game conceptually, I thought Cook 1382 01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:21,920 Speaker 5: really looked good, and you're so right. I mean, he 1383 01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:25,160 Speaker 5: had far more carries once Brady took over. Clearly he's 1384 01:09:25,200 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 5: not gonna have twenty five like he had against the 1385 01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:30,120 Speaker 5: Cowboys on a weekly basis. That's not gonna happen. But 1386 01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:32,840 Speaker 5: I think the run game will be an important part. 1387 01:09:32,880 --> 01:09:34,920 Speaker 5: And then I think you get the play action pass 1388 01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:38,840 Speaker 5: game with Josh under center, you know it just to me, 1389 01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:41,519 Speaker 5: that's a better way to run play action. I think 1390 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:44,400 Speaker 5: it has a greater effect on the defense, not only 1391 01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:48,080 Speaker 5: the second level defenders, which everybody automatically thinks of, but 1392 01:09:48,200 --> 01:09:51,120 Speaker 5: if you're going to have some run action, particularly with 1393 01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:55,120 Speaker 5: an outside zone element, then don't forget the D line. 1394 01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:58,560 Speaker 5: Their first move is lateral, not vertical, towards the quarterback. 1395 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:01,040 Speaker 5: So you know, we'll see how it goes. We just 1396 01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:04,200 Speaker 5: don't know. But but I was really impressed with Cook 1397 01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:05,839 Speaker 5: in the run game as a whole when I watched, 1398 01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:08,479 Speaker 5: because what I did is I watched all the runs 1399 01:10:08,479 --> 01:10:09,639 Speaker 5: from when Brady took over. 1400 01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 1: Yeah right, and they were fifty two percent run over 1401 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:17,519 Speaker 1: those last seven games. So yeah, pretty pretty pretty impressive. 1402 01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:19,200 Speaker 5: Does that include Josh as well. 1403 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:23,200 Speaker 1: I'd have to go back and look to know for sure. 1404 01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:26,599 Speaker 5: Because I mean i'd be surprised if they are fifty 1405 01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:28,719 Speaker 5: to fifty. You know, maybe they'd be, you know, fifty 1406 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:31,000 Speaker 5: eight to forty two, which in today's NFL would be 1407 01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:32,160 Speaker 5: viewed as really good balants. 1408 01:10:32,479 --> 01:10:34,960 Speaker 1: I do know this. They averaged almost thirty seven carries 1409 01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:36,880 Speaker 1: a game, which led the league over that span. 1410 01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:39,760 Speaker 5: So yeah, that's and I'm sure Josh would be part 1411 01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:41,960 Speaker 5: of that. And again we'll see how much they want 1412 01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 5: to do with that. Obviously in situation, in winning situations, 1413 01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:48,320 Speaker 5: you're going to do that. But you know, he is 1414 01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:50,479 Speaker 5: not that he's old, but he is getting older. You 1415 01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:53,400 Speaker 5: got to be a little careful, you know. It's just look, 1416 01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 5: no matter how big and strong and tough, and we 1417 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:57,760 Speaker 5: know all that about Josh. That's not my point, but 1418 01:10:57,800 --> 01:10:59,360 Speaker 5: the body can only handle so much. 1419 01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:02,240 Speaker 1: The last for me concerns another guy who we could 1420 01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:04,040 Speaker 1: see lining up in the backfield a good deal, and 1421 01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:07,360 Speaker 1: that's Curtis Samuel. So he obviously has already spent time 1422 01:11:07,400 --> 01:11:09,639 Speaker 1: with Joe Brady, having played under him for a season 1423 01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:13,080 Speaker 1: plus in Carolina, and one of the main reasons Joe 1424 01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:16,080 Speaker 1: Brady said he wanted him here is because he is 1425 01:11:16,120 --> 01:11:20,640 Speaker 1: smart enough to handle a multitude of assignments. So it 1426 01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:22,679 Speaker 1: looks like he's going to be a Swiss Army knife 1427 01:11:22,720 --> 01:11:26,040 Speaker 1: here in this offense. Where do you think fans should 1428 01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:28,320 Speaker 1: be looking for him to line up? Or is the 1429 01:11:28,320 --> 01:11:29,400 Speaker 1: easy answer everywhere? 1430 01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:32,360 Speaker 5: I'd be curious if Joe Burrow spent a lot of 1431 01:11:32,400 --> 01:11:34,800 Speaker 5: the off season looking at the forty nine ers, because 1432 01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:38,600 Speaker 5: you know, Samuel Curtis Samuel theoretically in terms of deployment, 1433 01:11:38,800 --> 01:11:41,439 Speaker 5: could end up being very much like Deebo Samuel. And 1434 01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:43,960 Speaker 5: don't forget he did that at Ohio State. I mean, 1435 01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:46,840 Speaker 5: this is not brand new to him, so he's he's 1436 01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:50,559 Speaker 5: done that throughout his career. I would expect them, you know, 1437 01:11:50,640 --> 01:11:52,920 Speaker 5: to do that because that can post prob and by 1438 01:11:52,960 --> 01:11:55,519 Speaker 5: the way, because of James Cook, who can detach from 1439 01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:58,879 Speaker 5: the formation. And I'm not making an Apple Apples comparison, 1440 01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:01,360 Speaker 5: So I don't want people listen to think that I'm 1441 01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:04,320 Speaker 5: saying that these players are the same as McCaffrey and 1442 01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:07,839 Speaker 5: Deebo Samuel. That's not my point. They're not the same players. 1443 01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:11,280 Speaker 5: But we're talking about deployment of personnel, and you can 1444 01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:12,839 Speaker 5: do that with those two players. 1445 01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:16,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, and as we as we get in to this 1446 01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:20,000 Speaker 3: game and how this team is gonna be different. The 1447 01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:23,200 Speaker 3: interesting thing is this offensive line for the Buffalo Bills 1448 01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:26,600 Speaker 3: has always has been I mean, we've almost pushed it 1449 01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:28,479 Speaker 3: to the side saying that's something we don't have to 1450 01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:30,640 Speaker 3: worry about. And certainly with the with the amount of 1451 01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:34,200 Speaker 3: veterans they have up front and a guy behind them, 1452 01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:37,599 Speaker 3: you would think that is there is there a reason 1453 01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:39,920 Speaker 3: to think the Bills will lean on that and just 1454 01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:42,799 Speaker 3: say listen, we're gonna We're gonna do that because it's 1455 01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:45,559 Speaker 3: until we get until we find out about Keon Coleman 1456 01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:51,160 Speaker 3: and Curtis Samuel and Mac Hollins and you know and mvs, 1457 01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:53,720 Speaker 3: we're gonna, you know, we're gonna hand it off a 1458 01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:56,080 Speaker 3: little bit here to find out and find our legs. 1459 01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:56,400 Speaker 3: Is there? 1460 01:12:57,720 --> 01:13:00,400 Speaker 5: What do you think? I mean? I think that depends 1461 01:13:00,439 --> 01:13:03,240 Speaker 5: on how games flow, you know, clearly. I mean, are 1462 01:13:03,240 --> 01:13:04,800 Speaker 5: they going to come out and be you know, quote 1463 01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:08,240 Speaker 5: unquote a running team, you know, like the Tennessee Titans were, 1464 01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:09,840 Speaker 5: you know, when they had Derrick Henry. I would think 1465 01:13:09,880 --> 01:13:12,280 Speaker 5: I won't be quite like that. Steve. But yeah, I 1466 01:13:12,280 --> 01:13:14,439 Speaker 5: mean there's one change in their old line, but it's 1467 01:13:14,479 --> 01:13:16,439 Speaker 5: with a player who was there last year who got 1468 01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:19,720 Speaker 5: meaningful snaps as their six O lineman, David Edwards. He'll 1469 01:13:19,720 --> 01:13:22,479 Speaker 5: play left guard. They'll move the governor center, so it's 1470 01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:25,519 Speaker 5: essentially the same group. So they're not really working in 1471 01:13:25,600 --> 01:13:29,080 Speaker 5: anybody new that's not familiar with their schemes and their systems. 1472 01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:31,400 Speaker 5: And Aaron Kromer is one of the better O line 1473 01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:34,600 Speaker 5: coaches in the league clearly. So could they line up 1474 01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:37,400 Speaker 5: and then try to be a physical team. Sure, And 1475 01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:39,639 Speaker 5: by the way, I don't think anybody would say there's 1476 01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:42,799 Speaker 5: anything wrong with trying to be a physical team and attack, 1477 01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:46,080 Speaker 5: you know, the opponent that way. That's never a bad 1478 01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:47,120 Speaker 5: thing in football. 1479 01:13:47,120 --> 01:13:49,800 Speaker 3: We've we've been kind of chuckling to ourselves that, you know, 1480 01:13:50,760 --> 01:13:53,160 Speaker 3: sometimes you got to peel Josh off the ceiling, right, 1481 01:13:53,240 --> 01:13:55,760 Speaker 3: because yes, like in that opening game last year in 1482 01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:57,719 Speaker 3: the New York he's throwing the thing all over the yard, 1483 01:13:57,800 --> 01:14:01,360 Speaker 3: ends up with three interceptions and they lose in overtime, 1484 01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:04,280 Speaker 3: that kind of thing. And sometimes he's got you know, 1485 01:14:04,320 --> 01:14:08,040 Speaker 3: these energy issues like sugar high Josh, Right, could the 1486 01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:10,679 Speaker 3: coaching staff say Listen, We're not gonna let that happen. 1487 01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:12,680 Speaker 3: We're gonna let Josh have a game like they did 1488 01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:16,160 Speaker 3: in Dallas last year. This is a team in Arizona's 1489 01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:18,680 Speaker 3: defense where we think we can control the line of scrimmage. 1490 01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:23,000 Speaker 3: We're not gonna let Josh throw the ball to the 1491 01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:25,200 Speaker 3: other team this week. We're just gonna take the win 1492 01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:25,680 Speaker 3: and get out. 1493 01:14:25,880 --> 01:14:28,160 Speaker 5: And you know, again, you could easily make the argument 1494 01:14:28,200 --> 01:14:30,840 Speaker 5: that they should start a game and give Josh very 1495 01:14:30,880 --> 01:14:35,519 Speaker 5: basic no read, one read tight throws, tunnel screens, conventional screens, 1496 01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:39,000 Speaker 5: boot action, you know, keep it simple. Let them get comfortable. 1497 01:14:39,120 --> 01:14:41,360 Speaker 5: Don't ask him. Look, it's gonna get to be third 1498 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:44,040 Speaker 5: and nine at some point, no question. But don't start 1499 01:14:44,080 --> 01:14:46,360 Speaker 5: the game by asking him to drive the ball down 1500 01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:49,720 Speaker 5: the field. Because, look, Josh has a little bit of 1501 01:14:49,720 --> 01:14:51,960 Speaker 5: that Brett Farvan him and there's nothing going on. Brett 1502 01:14:51,960 --> 01:14:53,960 Speaker 5: fav was the first ballot Hall of Famer, but he's 1503 01:14:53,960 --> 01:14:56,200 Speaker 5: got a little bit of that mindset to his game. 1504 01:14:56,200 --> 01:14:57,400 Speaker 5: When you agree Steve. 1505 01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:00,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's gonna shoot first and ask questions later. Yeah, 1506 01:15:00,360 --> 01:15:04,240 Speaker 3: he's right, So what's what he's gonna do? Yeah, And 1507 01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:07,360 Speaker 3: I would say, if you're coaching staff who has an 1508 01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:11,360 Speaker 3: idea that he may do that. Maybe this offensive line 1509 01:15:11,400 --> 01:15:13,160 Speaker 3: is the place you go to to say, listen, we're 1510 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:15,320 Speaker 3: gonna let them carry the load for a minute until 1511 01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:15,960 Speaker 3: the second half. 1512 01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:19,320 Speaker 5: Give him yeah, and give him easy throws, give him completion, 1513 01:15:19,479 --> 01:15:22,000 Speaker 5: get him comfortable, let him get let him settle into 1514 01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:24,320 Speaker 5: the game. Give him snag flat to the boundary. It's 1515 01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:26,960 Speaker 5: a one read throw, you know. Give him basic stuff 1516 01:15:27,200 --> 01:15:29,080 Speaker 5: where you know he doesn't have to drop back and 1517 01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:30,560 Speaker 5: read it out and think, oh, man, I'm going to 1518 01:15:30,640 --> 01:15:32,840 Speaker 5: drive that ball twenty two yards down the field, which 1519 01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:35,160 Speaker 5: of course he's more than capable of, but that might 1520 01:15:35,560 --> 01:15:37,280 Speaker 5: might not be the way you want to start games. 1521 01:15:37,479 --> 01:15:40,439 Speaker 1: Right, right, last thing, very quickly before we let you go. 1522 01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:45,120 Speaker 1: NFL Networks Mike Arafolo is reporting, and now the team 1523 01:15:45,160 --> 01:15:47,519 Speaker 1: has made it official that Spencer Brown has signed a 1524 01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:50,760 Speaker 1: four year contract extension. Oh just your thoughts on the 1525 01:15:50,840 --> 01:15:51,400 Speaker 1: right tackle. 1526 01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:54,719 Speaker 5: Well, I'm going to tell you because I haven't studied 1527 01:15:54,800 --> 01:15:57,080 Speaker 5: him individually in great details, So I'm going to tell 1528 01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:58,960 Speaker 5: you that I had a chance this summer to speak 1529 01:15:58,960 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 5: to Aaron Kromer, Andaron Chromer really really likes him, and 1530 01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:04,720 Speaker 5: I'm sure that played into the resigning of him. So 1531 01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:06,880 Speaker 5: I'll leave it at that, because, like I said, you know, 1532 01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:08,560 Speaker 5: I'm not going to sit here and say, yeah, I 1533 01:16:08,880 --> 01:16:11,720 Speaker 5: know everything Spencer Brown does. I try not to talk 1534 01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:14,559 Speaker 5: about the things Brownie I don't know a lot about understood. 1535 01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:16,719 Speaker 5: I mean, I can tell you that Aaron Chromer really 1536 01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:19,040 Speaker 5: likes him as a player, so I'm sure that factored 1537 01:16:19,040 --> 01:16:19,439 Speaker 5: into it. 1538 01:16:19,560 --> 01:16:22,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, he got this been reported, he got the third 1539 01:16:22,560 --> 01:16:24,080 Speaker 3: highest performance. 1540 01:16:24,600 --> 01:16:26,040 Speaker 1: That was what he got last year. 1541 01:16:26,080 --> 01:16:27,680 Speaker 3: So that's what he got last year. Yeah, that's what 1542 01:16:27,760 --> 01:16:29,679 Speaker 3: he got. That's what I'm saying he got last year. 1543 01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:33,440 Speaker 3: Spencer Brown got the hot third highest performance based paycheck 1544 01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:37,679 Speaker 3: bump just bonus check in the NFL for just shy 1545 01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:40,400 Speaker 3: of a million dollars, And now the Bills recognize him 1546 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:43,639 Speaker 3: for that as well. Yeah, he's a guy that started 1547 01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:46,400 Speaker 3: all seventeen games like most of the Bill's offensive lineman 1548 01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:49,400 Speaker 3: did last year, and the Bills tie him up. 1549 01:16:50,760 --> 01:16:53,360 Speaker 5: Yeah. I mean, look, you know, very often when you 1550 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:55,800 Speaker 5: have a quarterback like Josh Allen, you always think that 1551 01:16:56,080 --> 01:16:58,240 Speaker 5: we don't think about the offensive line. We think, oh, well, 1552 01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:00,479 Speaker 5: Josh is just gonna make plays. But you know, the 1553 01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:03,320 Speaker 5: offensive line if you're a team that has a really 1554 01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:05,760 Speaker 5: good O line and a really good D line, then 1555 01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:08,200 Speaker 5: you're you're going to be a competitive team, you know, 1556 01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:12,760 Speaker 5: And that's you can't skimp on your O line and 1557 01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:14,760 Speaker 5: your D line no matter what the rest of your 1558 01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:15,559 Speaker 5: team looks like. 1559 01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:19,280 Speaker 1: All right, Greg, enjoy week one.

Spencer Brown, starting right tackle for 1570 01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:44,920 Speaker 1: the Bills, has a four year contract extension. And this 1571 01:17:45,040 --> 01:17:47,880 Speaker 1: is kind of how Brandon Bean works. Very often he 1572 01:17:47,960 --> 01:17:51,040 Speaker 1: will sign young players that they want part of their 1573 01:17:51,080 --> 01:17:55,400 Speaker 1: future two extensions sometime in late August early September, right 1574 01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:57,920 Speaker 1: before the season starts, and Spencer Brown is the latest 1575 01:17:58,280 --> 01:18:00,160 Speaker 1: example of that.

Gabe's Collision, 1581 01:18:31,360 --> 01:18:34,960 Speaker 1: the official auto collision repair center of the Buffalo Bills 1582 01:18:35,439 --> 01:18:38,080 Speaker 1: get back in the game. And we didn't talk to 1583 01:18:38,320 --> 01:18:40,600 Speaker 1: Greg co Sell about this guy, but he was the 1584 01:18:40,720 --> 01:18:43,600 Speaker 1: number one weapon on this offense last year for the Cardinals. 1585 01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:47,519 Speaker 1: Tight End Tray McBride is going to be a matchup 1586 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:50,719 Speaker 1: concern for sure. Work in the middle of the field 1587 01:18:51,120 --> 01:18:53,719 Speaker 1: eighty one catches last year for eight hundred and twenty 1588 01:18:53,760 --> 01:18:57,960 Speaker 1: five yards. He was like a lone wolf in that 1589 01:18:58,040 --> 01:18:59,880 Speaker 1: offense last year. Now he's got some help on the 1590 01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:03,360 Speaker 1: outside with Marvin Harrison Junior, but he's a guy that 1591 01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:05,400 Speaker 1: the Bills are gonna absolutely have to account for and 1592 01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:06,400 Speaker 1: he can get down the field. 1593 01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:10,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a really good player and in a in 1594 01:19:10,760 --> 01:19:12,760 Speaker 3: a team that needed some bright spots, he was one 1595 01:19:12,800 --> 01:19:15,639 Speaker 3: of them. And it's it will be interesting to see 1596 01:19:15,680 --> 01:19:19,360 Speaker 3: how his And I'm not a fantasy football guy at all, 1597 01:19:21,160 --> 01:19:23,639 Speaker 3: but you do need more than one guy catching balls, 1598 01:19:24,040 --> 01:19:26,360 Speaker 3: and Marvin Harrison Junior is gonna get a lion's share 1599 01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:28,759 Speaker 3: of those things because he can separate, but so can McBride. 1600 01:19:28,800 --> 01:19:31,000 Speaker 3: I mean, it's a good spot for Kyler Murray to 1601 01:19:31,040 --> 01:19:33,640 Speaker 3: be in. And we'll see. And I don't know that 1602 01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:35,800 Speaker 3: Connor is going to be that big a force in 1603 01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:38,679 Speaker 3: the passing game with him. He can run the ball, 1604 01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:41,680 Speaker 3: it doesn't really I don't know what his reputation is 1605 01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:43,840 Speaker 3: as a pass catcher. But they need, you know, they 1606 01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:45,519 Speaker 3: just need more weapons. And you know, we heard from 1607 01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:51,160 Speaker 3: Greg Gosel they've got enough skilled guys out there. It does, 1608 01:19:51,560 --> 01:19:53,479 Speaker 3: It does boil down to the guy taking snaps. 1609 01:19:53,760 --> 01:19:57,599 Speaker 1: I am curious to see how they choose to deploy 1610 01:19:57,680 --> 01:20:00,519 Speaker 1: coverage against him, you know, as a tail a rap 1611 01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:04,640 Speaker 1: you know, is it someone else? Is it a linebacker? 1612 01:20:04,720 --> 01:20:06,800 Speaker 1: Is it another corner that they bring on the field, 1613 01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:08,960 Speaker 1: Like does Kyer Elam come on the field and cover him? 1614 01:20:09,479 --> 01:20:12,160 Speaker 1: You know, because he's six to one, he's certainly. 1615 01:20:11,840 --> 01:20:13,840 Speaker 3: Tall enough they can outrun him. 1616 01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:17,000 Speaker 1: I'm very curious to see what they choose to do. 1617 01:20:17,120 --> 01:20:18,960 Speaker 1: I don't think covers assignon. They may just mix it 1618 01:20:19,040 --> 01:20:19,559 Speaker 1: up the whole game. 1619 01:20:19,680 --> 01:20:21,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they'll mix it up. They're not gonna 1620 01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:26,680 Speaker 3: come out of their identity because of McBride. I mean, 1621 01:20:26,720 --> 01:20:30,320 Speaker 3: there's just no way. So whatever they do, it's gonna 1622 01:20:30,320 --> 01:20:32,439 Speaker 3: be within the framework of what we see them usually do. 1623 01:20:32,880 --> 01:20:35,599 Speaker 3: They're not gonna I don't think if they game plan 1624 01:20:35,720 --> 01:20:38,719 Speaker 3: to that extreme where they would come out of their 1625 01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:42,680 Speaker 3: their character like throw kyri Elam out there. But we 1626 01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:44,479 Speaker 3: don't know what they think about this defense so much 1627 01:20:44,520 --> 01:20:46,240 Speaker 3: this year too, so it is a possibility. 1628 01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:49,280 Speaker 1: So that's collision course brought to you by Gabe's Collision. 1629 01:20:49,280 --> 01:20:51,640 Speaker 1: Gabe's Collision, the official auto collision repair center of the 1630 01:20:51,640 --> 01:20:57,000 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills Get back in the game. Excuse me, gotta 1631 01:20:57,080 --> 01:21:00,880 Speaker 1: go back to the OBL Friday fan mail bag, where 1632 01:21:00,920 --> 01:21:05,360 Speaker 1: we're taking your questions pretty much all afternoon about Bill's 1633 01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:10,519 Speaker 1: NFL the whole ball of wax. Mike asks, will our 1634 01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:14,080 Speaker 1: pass rush be dominant this year? Or can we improve 1635 01:21:14,240 --> 01:21:17,479 Speaker 1: on red zone efficiency? On offense? They were top five 1636 01:21:17,479 --> 01:21:19,280 Speaker 1: in red zone efficiency? How much better do you want 1637 01:21:19,320 --> 01:21:19,600 Speaker 1: them to be? 1638 01:21:20,560 --> 01:21:23,960 Speaker 3: Well, you like me the best, but yeah, I'm yeah. 1639 01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:28,600 Speaker 1: Will our pass rush be dominant? They were fourth in 1640 01:21:28,640 --> 01:21:31,240 Speaker 1: the league in sacks last year. Good and that was 1641 01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:33,040 Speaker 1: without von Miller doing a lick of anything. 1642 01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:35,559 Speaker 3: Was pretty good against Pittsburgh when they were all out 1643 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:40,240 Speaker 3: there for a minute. They've got a chance to be 1644 01:21:40,280 --> 01:21:43,080 Speaker 3: really good. I think I'm a little perplexed by the question. 1645 01:21:43,200 --> 01:21:44,920 Speaker 3: I think, to be honest with I think they can. 1646 01:21:45,439 --> 01:21:48,559 Speaker 3: I think they can be really good. They were good, 1647 01:21:48,560 --> 01:21:52,439 Speaker 3: and I just yes, I think they got a chance 1648 01:21:52,479 --> 01:21:54,439 Speaker 3: to be We'll see, and it's a long season and 1649 01:21:54,439 --> 01:21:58,200 Speaker 3: there's a lot that goes into it, but maybe I 1650 01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:00,200 Speaker 3: think their pass rush is going to be really good 1651 01:22:00,280 --> 01:22:02,639 Speaker 3: this year, really good. I think if Rousseau can stay 1652 01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:06,920 Speaker 3: one hundred percent healthy. Rousseau's one of those guys who 1653 01:22:07,720 --> 01:22:10,479 Speaker 3: he's been nicked up in his career. When he's nicked up, 1654 01:22:10,520 --> 01:22:14,519 Speaker 3: he doesn't play well, but he's always available. He always 1655 01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:17,880 Speaker 3: guts it up, gets on the field and plays and 1656 01:22:17,920 --> 01:22:25,040 Speaker 3: he's really good. But when he's really healthy, he's really good. 1657 01:22:25,479 --> 01:22:27,439 Speaker 3: I hope he stays really healthy this year because I 1658 01:22:27,479 --> 01:22:29,720 Speaker 3: think he could really put together as good a year 1659 01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:32,040 Speaker 3: as a defensive end is put together in Buffalo in 1660 01:22:32,080 --> 01:22:32,479 Speaker 3: a long time. 1661 01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:34,479 Speaker 1: Bills were sixth in the league in red zone touchdown 1662 01:22:34,479 --> 01:22:37,519 Speaker 1: efficiency on offense sixty three percent, and as I said, 1663 01:22:37,520 --> 01:22:40,960 Speaker 1: fourth in the league in sacks with fifty four last year, 1664 01:22:41,479 --> 01:22:44,519 Speaker 1: which is the second most sacks that tied the club 1665 01:22:44,520 --> 01:22:46,400 Speaker 1: record for the second most sackson team history. 1666 01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:49,519 Speaker 3: The Bills are The Bills are a load down in 1667 01:22:49,520 --> 01:22:53,840 Speaker 3: the red zone. They're a problem. One of the big 1668 01:22:53,880 --> 01:22:56,280 Speaker 3: things is the fact they got Dawson Knox, who's a 1669 01:22:56,320 --> 01:23:00,400 Speaker 3: big target. They got Kincaid who's very nifty in side, 1670 01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:03,559 Speaker 3: They had digs last year. They got Cook who can run. 1671 01:23:03,720 --> 01:23:05,880 Speaker 3: And then to top all that in they got the 1672 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:08,840 Speaker 3: atomic bomb taking the snap and he takes a snap 1673 01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:11,200 Speaker 3: out of shotgun. You pull a couple of offensive linemen 1674 01:23:11,200 --> 01:23:13,519 Speaker 3: out to the edge and he's getting to the pylon. 1675 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:16,760 Speaker 3: You're not stopping him. Yea, So it's gonna be a 1676 01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:19,240 Speaker 3: it's gonna be a train wreck at the pylon. Maybe, 1677 01:23:19,240 --> 01:23:21,320 Speaker 3: But he's got a bigger engine than anybody's gonna be 1678 01:23:21,320 --> 01:23:24,960 Speaker 3: out there. You're gonna have a two hundred pound corner 1679 01:23:25,360 --> 01:23:27,839 Speaker 3: or safety trying to take on him, and an offensive 1680 01:23:27,840 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 3: lineman and a tight end coming at him. It's a 1681 01:23:30,240 --> 01:23:32,840 Speaker 3: problem because they get out They get you out numbered 1682 01:23:32,840 --> 01:23:35,360 Speaker 3: out there with Josh with the ball tucked under his arm, 1683 01:23:35,880 --> 01:23:38,599 Speaker 3: and not only does he come in plowing in, he 1684 01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:41,080 Speaker 3: can also jump over the top of you. Yeah, I mean, 1685 01:23:41,320 --> 01:23:44,599 Speaker 3: it's a problem. So you got all this weapons out 1686 01:23:44,600 --> 01:23:48,280 Speaker 3: there and then you got that dude, you know, a 1687 01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:52,880 Speaker 3: buffalo coming around the hedge. They're really good in the 1688 01:23:52,880 --> 01:23:55,160 Speaker 3: red zone, so I don't know where that I don't 1689 01:23:55,160 --> 01:23:55,759 Speaker 3: get that question. 1690 01:23:56,040 --> 01:24:00,160 Speaker 1: I was perplexed by both questions. They're top five sacks, 1691 01:24:01,040 --> 01:24:03,920 Speaker 1: top six red zone efficiency, like they're already there. 1692 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:06,439 Speaker 3: I would like to see him get more sacks with 1693 01:24:06,600 --> 01:24:09,760 Speaker 3: defensive lineman rather than sendon Milano with sending you know, 1694 01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:14,120 Speaker 3: TB blitzing is sending extra guys. I'd rather get them 1695 01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:18,160 Speaker 3: quick pressure with only four guys rushing and the ball 1696 01:24:18,200 --> 01:24:20,439 Speaker 3: either comes out on time or the quarterbacks on the ground. 1697 01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:22,840 Speaker 3: That's what you really want, and I'd like to see 1698 01:24:22,880 --> 01:24:27,320 Speaker 3: more of that rather than having Terrell Bernard getting a sack, 1699 01:24:27,880 --> 01:24:30,559 Speaker 3: Taron Johnson getting a sack, all of that stuff. 1700 01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:35,479 Speaker 1: Yeah. Next question comes from Connor, who asks other than 1701 01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:37,840 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, who will have the biggest stat line for 1702 01:24:37,880 --> 01:24:40,839 Speaker 1: the Bills this Sunday. I know I have a pick already. 1703 01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:42,800 Speaker 3: That's good. I haven't thought about it. 1704 01:24:43,479 --> 01:24:46,519 Speaker 1: I like Khalil Shakir for this one because I like 1705 01:24:46,560 --> 01:24:49,200 Speaker 1: the matchup with him on Garrett Williams there nickel corner. 1706 01:24:49,920 --> 01:24:53,759 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say Khalil Shakir will have the biggest 1707 01:24:53,760 --> 01:24:55,719 Speaker 1: stat line for the Bills on Sunday. 1708 01:24:56,439 --> 01:24:58,920 Speaker 3: Let me close my eyes and conjure. 1709 01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:05,519 Speaker 1: Look into your crystal ball. I'll gregg. He had a 1710 01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:07,840 Speaker 1: nice stat line in Pittsburgh the last time he played. 1711 01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:13,639 Speaker 3: I think opening day against this offense. Now, Kyler Murray 1712 01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:15,920 Speaker 3: may throw a wrench in that. He may have a 1713 01:25:15,920 --> 01:25:20,920 Speaker 3: hard time capability. And if it's that's my pick on 1714 01:25:20,960 --> 01:25:27,240 Speaker 3: the defense. On the offense, I'll pick Curtis Samuel. I 1715 01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:29,280 Speaker 3: think he'll have more yards. I think he'll lead the 1716 01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:30,640 Speaker 3: team in yards from scrimmage. 1717 01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:36,200 Speaker 1: Okay, well, isn't that interesting, is it? I think so? 1718 01:25:36,280 --> 01:25:37,320 Speaker 3: I'm an interesting guy? 1719 01:25:38,439 --> 01:25:39,240 Speaker 2: And what do you? Laughed? 1720 01:25:39,320 --> 01:25:42,360 Speaker 3: Jay's laughing in my ear? What's did I say something funny? 1721 01:25:42,840 --> 01:25:48,640 Speaker 1: You said you're an interesting guy? Remember those beer commercials 1722 01:25:48,640 --> 01:25:51,719 Speaker 1: got me? He's the most interesting guy in the world. 1723 01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:55,479 Speaker 3: I don't always I don't always predict I don't always 1724 01:25:55,479 --> 01:25:59,559 Speaker 3: predict the future, but when I do, I'm usually I'm 1725 01:25:59,640 --> 01:26:00,680 Speaker 3: usually interesting. 1726 01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:05,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, something to that effect. We're gonna take a break here, 1727 01:26:05,960 --> 01:26:09,040 Speaker 1: vision to victory coming your way. Next we'll tell you 1728 01:26:09,040 --> 01:26:10,920 Speaker 1: what that is when we return here on one Bill's 1729 01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:17,320 Speaker 1: Live presented by Colid of Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio 1730 01:26:29,680 --> 01:26:33,280 Speaker 1: time now for Vision to Victory presented by at Wall 1731 01:26:33,320 --> 01:26:36,920 Speaker 1: Eye Care, the official ie care provider of the Buffalo Bills, 1732 01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:39,920 Speaker 1: for this matchup between the Bills and the Cardinals home 1733 01:26:39,960 --> 01:26:43,680 Speaker 1: opener for Buffalo here in Week one. Steve, what is 1734 01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:47,679 Speaker 1: the path and the vision to victory for Buffalo on Sunday? 1735 01:26:50,680 --> 01:26:53,920 Speaker 3: I think this is a this this is a game 1736 01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:57,599 Speaker 3: the Bills should be heavily favored in. I think they 1737 01:26:57,640 --> 01:27:00,519 Speaker 3: need to They don't need to put the full they 1738 01:27:00,560 --> 01:27:03,559 Speaker 3: don't need to go full sales, full speed ahead to do. 1739 01:27:03,680 --> 01:27:07,240 Speaker 3: I think they need to come out, start and just 1740 01:27:08,080 --> 01:27:12,880 Speaker 3: stay inside the numbers. Okay, their offensive line is going 1741 01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:15,720 Speaker 3: to be really good. Run the football and force the 1742 01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:18,080 Speaker 3: Arizona Cardinals to make adjustments to their running game, and 1743 01:27:18,080 --> 01:27:20,920 Speaker 3: then let Josh cook a little bit. I think once 1744 01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:22,840 Speaker 3: you get a handle on what their defense is going 1745 01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:25,160 Speaker 3: to try and do against you, this is an offense, 1746 01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:26,680 Speaker 3: it's going to be really hard. I've said it and 1747 01:27:26,680 --> 01:27:28,200 Speaker 3: said it and said it's going to be really hard 1748 01:27:28,200 --> 01:27:31,639 Speaker 3: to get Josh and these weapons off the field behind 1749 01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:35,400 Speaker 3: that offensive line concentrate on getting first down, first down, 1750 01:27:35,439 --> 01:27:39,400 Speaker 3: first down, first down, and this game is going to 1751 01:27:39,439 --> 01:27:40,400 Speaker 3: go exactly that way. 1752 01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:44,479 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think Joe Brady's going to lean on the 1753 01:27:44,520 --> 01:27:47,519 Speaker 1: run game early in the season while the timing in 1754 01:27:47,560 --> 01:27:50,519 Speaker 1: the passing game finds its footing. And I think that 1755 01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:52,479 Speaker 1: might be the case for the first few weeks of 1756 01:27:52,520 --> 01:27:55,800 Speaker 1: the season with all the newness that's in the passing game. 1757 01:27:57,760 --> 01:28:01,320 Speaker 1: And I know that Brandon Bean and Sean McDermott believe 1758 01:28:02,520 --> 01:28:07,360 Speaker 1: with the stable of backs that they have Cook Johnson 1759 01:28:08,040 --> 01:28:14,200 Speaker 1: Davis that they can run against whatever a defense does 1760 01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:17,280 Speaker 1: to them because of the varying skill sets of those 1761 01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:21,519 Speaker 1: three players, combined with the continuity of their offensive line, 1762 01:28:22,160 --> 01:28:23,960 Speaker 1: And I think they're just going to come out on 1763 01:28:24,120 --> 01:28:29,880 Speaker 1: Sunday and just bully ball the Cardinals and say stop 1764 01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:32,960 Speaker 1: it if you can. And I don't think they're going 1765 01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:35,320 Speaker 1: to be able to with enough effectiveness to get the 1766 01:28:35,320 --> 01:28:36,679 Speaker 1: Bills stop running. 1767 01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:41,360 Speaker 3: They're an NFL, the Cardinals are not nobody there, but 1768 01:28:41,400 --> 01:28:45,160 Speaker 3: the Bills will can I believe, run the ball effectively 1769 01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:48,720 Speaker 3: enough for the Arizona Cardinals to make huge adjustments to 1770 01:28:48,800 --> 01:28:51,120 Speaker 3: stop Yeah, that's my point. Then when they stop, then 1771 01:28:51,160 --> 01:28:53,759 Speaker 3: they make those adjustments. Then you take advantage of those 1772 01:28:53,960 --> 01:28:56,439 Speaker 3: and force them to over commit to the run and 1773 01:28:56,439 --> 01:28:58,360 Speaker 3: then take an advantage. I'm not saying go over the top, 1774 01:28:58,880 --> 01:29:01,600 Speaker 3: but just make it really hard on them, you know, 1775 01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:02,759 Speaker 3: to do both. 1776 01:29:02,840 --> 01:29:05,280 Speaker 1: The Cardinals knew what their problem was. They could not 1777 01:29:05,360 --> 01:29:07,840 Speaker 1: stop anybody. Last year. They spent the most free agent 1778 01:29:07,880 --> 01:29:11,320 Speaker 1: money on two defensive linemen, Justin Jones and Ballal Nichols 1779 01:29:11,320 --> 01:29:13,920 Speaker 1: for their three four front. They're both gonna start on 1780 01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:17,240 Speaker 1: either side of their nose tackle Lopez, and they're hoping 1781 01:29:17,280 --> 01:29:21,280 Speaker 1: it's better but with no pass rush against one of 1782 01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:24,280 Speaker 1: the best scrambling quarterbacks in football. Best of luck with that. 1783 01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:27,040 Speaker 1: I mean, they were last in the league in third 1784 01:29:27,040 --> 01:29:29,240 Speaker 1: down defense, Bills were first in the league the last 1785 01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:31,720 Speaker 1: two years, and third down conversions on offense. That's a 1786 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:34,240 Speaker 1: recipe for disaster in terms of getting off the field. 1787 01:29:34,280 --> 01:29:36,240 Speaker 1: And I realize it's a new season for the Cardinals, 1788 01:29:36,439 --> 01:29:39,080 Speaker 1: but they're just not there yet. They're in the second 1789 01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:42,160 Speaker 1: year of their Bill under Gannon. I just don't see 1790 01:29:42,160 --> 01:29:44,720 Speaker 1: them hanging with this team. I really don't. So we'll 1791 01:29:44,760 --> 01:29:47,720 Speaker 1: see I think Garrets, I mean maybe early they hang 1792 01:29:47,800 --> 01:29:48,080 Speaker 1: with them. 1793 01:29:48,080 --> 01:29:51,479 Speaker 3: But Marvin HARRISL. Junior alone makes them a better team 1794 01:29:51,520 --> 01:29:55,599 Speaker 3: than they were. A Sureio Wilson that says something. 1795 01:29:56,600 --> 01:29:59,000 Speaker 1: Enjoy the game on Sunday, Steve and I'll be back 1796 01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:08,680 Speaker 1: on Monday three our show. We'll see at noon on Monday, 1797 01:30:05,120 --> 01:30:05,160 Speaker 1: m
