1
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,479
Speaker 1: At a Steve Tasker who has been all over the

2
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:12,399
Speaker 1: fields kind of unique. He was kind of a dual

3
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: role player for you, Steve a blimp. We're not even

4
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 1: in the spreaded fear of normalcy here. It is a

5
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 1: Thursday edition of One Bill's Live. Chris Brown, along with

6
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: Maddie Glab who is stepping in as Steve Tasker, has

7
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: a date with a root canal today. Yis yikes, Maddie,

8
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 1: I might need you tomorrow because if he comes in

9
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: here tomorrow and he's still drooling out of the side

10
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: of his mouth from all the novacaine, um, he may

11
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: not be suitable for air. That's what I was saying. Saying.

12
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,599
Speaker 1: I was like, there's how can Steve be fine by

13
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: Friday with the root canal? That just doesn't make sense

14
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 1: in my brain. But yeah, so he's got a date

15
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: with the dentist today, and best of luck to him,

16
00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: because though we are not fun now that I've had

17
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 1: one myself, but I've heard that it gets a little crazy,

18
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: the drills going, smokes flying. You know, they got to

19
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: hollow out that tooth. Anything with your teeth. I'm just

20
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: not a fan of a huge fans welcome in to

21
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: a Thursday edition of One Bills Live. We can actually

22
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: hear the music pumping over on the practice field about

23
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,839
Speaker 1: fifty yards away through the walls of our studio here

24
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: in the Seneca Studios at One Bill's Drive, and there

25
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: was a heavy Michael Jackson lean from the Thriller album

26
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 1: at the start here, because we could make out the

27
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: beats and the grooves and which songs were playing. And

28
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: we do know the head coach, Sean McDermott, is a

29
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 1: Michael Jackson fan. I mean that's right in his wheelhouse,

30
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: you know, eighties kid kind of like me. I don't

31
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: think we're too far apart in age, and I mean

32
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: that was gigantic at that time, so I'm not surprised

33
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: trying to help the coach out here on a Thursday

34
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: get the juices flowing. It's gonna say it is more

35
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: for the coach or the players. But when you get

36
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: that old music bumping on the field and you look

37
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: at the players, the older guys get grooven, even the Yeah,

38
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: I think there's a healthy appreciation. Yes, Michael Jackson, the

39
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: artist m rip, but you know, hey, I gotta give

40
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: it to you know, DJ Milk DJ. Yes, I mean

41
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 1: they mix it up pretty well, and there's a healthy blend,

42
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: you know, between the new stuff and you know, old

43
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: school stuff. So I mean even when they're jamming all

44
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: the rap tunes out there, they got all the new

45
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 1: stuff for the players that they have on their you know,

46
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: phones and stuff. But then they'll throw in a little

47
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: Public Enemy or you know, drop in, you know, some

48
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: old stuff from KRS one and Boogie Down production. So

49
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 1: it's nice to see that variety. I appreciate it, and

50
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: I tell them every time I'm out in practice and

51
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 1: that happens. I told them last Friday when I was

52
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: out there, I said, hey, good job on the pe

53
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: way to play Public Enemy. And we haven't seen them

54
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: in a while. They haven't come out to practice quite

55
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 1: a bit because of COVID. That's like Protocols kind of

56
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: one of the first times that we've got to see me,

57
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: Djes and DJM Milk out there. And that is Yeah,

58
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: that is a good transition here, Mattie, because we do

59
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: have an update to run down across the NFL man

60
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 1: it's essentially a COVID scoreboard. At this point. We know

61
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: that unfortunately, the virus is spiking all across the country

62
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: and we know that that's going to drive up the

63
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: law of averages that unfortunately, sooner rather than later, a

64
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 1: player or two here or there in just about every

65
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: NFL city has a greater chance of coming down with

66
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,639
Speaker 1: the virus. And that's kind of come to pass through

67
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: the course of this week. So here is a rundown.

68
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: The Texans today have gone virtual with no practice. The

69
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: Colts virtual meetings, but they are practicing in person. The

70
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: Lions they're starting quarterback in quarantine. His status for Sunday

71
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 1: is in question, Matthew Stafford. The Broncos canceled their practice yesterday.

72
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: They're hoping to practice today. They're GM and CEO tested positive.

73
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 1: The Ravens have put seven players on the covid IR

74
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: list this week. The Cowboys put Andy Dalton on the

75
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: covid IR list. Now they're deciding between Garrett Gilbert and

76
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush. I think it's gonna be Garrett Gilbert's quarterback

77
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: in the Cowboys this weekend. The forty nine Ers for

78
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: tonight's game are missing their left tackle and two starting

79
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: wide receivers, and the Packers are missing two running backs

80
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: and a linebacker for tonight's game. And then we just

81
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: found out within the hour that the Chicago Bears now

82
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: have an additional player that's tested positive for COVID, offensive

83
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 1: lineman Cody Whitehair, along with Jason Spriggs who had tested positive.

84
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: So they've already been in the intensive protocol where they

85
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: raise the you know the protocols like anytime you're anything

86
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: less like a walkthrough in practice, everybody's got a mask up.

87
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: You know, regular practice you don't have to, but in

88
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 1: a walk through, everybody's gonna have a mask on, including players.

89
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: All meetings got to have social distance and masks around

90
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 1: the whole time. A lot of extra stuff that they're doing.

91
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: But this is I'm just worried about the trickle down

92
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: effect here from the rest of the country to the NFL,

93
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: which and we've said this many times on the show Manny,

94
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: They've done a great job to get to this point,

95
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: but we were all worried about this. When the weather turned,

96
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: they said the chances of the virus shooting up go higher.

97
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: We know we're coming off Halloween weekend where there were

98
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 1: some people around the country not doing the right thing.

99
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 1: So I am legitimately concerned about where it could go

100
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: from here. Yeah, it is a third of NFL teams

101
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: that are dealing with issues. Just this week, COVID issues

102
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 1: one third of the entire NFL. Yeah, and fortunately the

103
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 1: Bills are not one of those. Hopefully coming out of

104
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: that because Dawson Knox hopefully comes off COVID reserved list

105
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. I know you saw him out

106
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: at the practice field yesterday, not practicing obviously, but doing

107
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: stuff on the side. Right, Yeah, he was out on

108
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 1: this side. He was using the bike. So Sean mcdermoy

109
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: when he spoke to the media yesterday he said that

110
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 1: Dawson would not be practicing, but he is in the building.

111
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: He's still in the COVID nineteen protocols of working your

112
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: way back onto the practice field and probably being able

113
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: to do every single thing again with your team. So

114
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: good to see him out there. But like you mentioned,

115
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,599
Speaker 1: when I was doing my practice hit, he was dealing

116
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: with an injury and then he got COVID. So we

117
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: don't know where he's at with that injury, because if

118
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: he's been at home, I'm sure he's been doing some

119
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: sort of virtual rehab at home, but he hasn't been

120
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: able to provided he didn't have severe symptoms, which would

121
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 1: keep him for that. We know it's a respiratory disease,

122
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 1: so I mean, we hope he was fine to do

123
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: that stuff. You got to believe the strength and conditioning

124
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: staff was in touch with him remotely. So you do

125
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,359
Speaker 1: the A, B and C so you're good to go

126
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: when you get back right exactly. So we'll see where

127
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 1: he's at. We'll see how he progressives this week, if

128
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: at all, if we see him on the practice hopefully

129
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: we'll get Dawson back within the next couple games because

130
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 1: we've definitely been missing him. Yeah, the tight end has

131
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: been kind of a group effort this year when you

132
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: think about it, I mean, Tyler Croft has carried the

133
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: bulk of the load here due to the fact that

134
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: Dawson Knox has had two different injuries this season and

135
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: then went on the COVID reserve list and as we know,

136
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: Croft fortunately enough for him expecting his first child with

137
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: his wife, she goes into labor. He misses the last

138
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: two days of the practice week, and that is when

139
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: Dawson tested positive. The contact tracing begins. They point to

140
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:41,119
Speaker 1: Lee Smith and he gets marked as somebody in close

141
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: contact with Dawson Knox and so you know, suddenly they

142
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: were short there. I mean, fortunately Reggie Gilliam bounces around

143
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: to a bunch of different rooms so he didn't get

144
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 1: caught up in the contact tracing issues. But it was

145
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: I mean, it was all hands on deck there for

146
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks in terms of figuring that out.

147
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: And we've seen that with other teams too, Maddie, Like

148
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: we saw the Raiders offensive liners. Yeah, like, are they

149
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: going to have any linemen? Somebody that covers the forty

150
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: nine ers today did like a projected starting lineup for

151
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: tonight's game. It's like, I mean, more than games like

152
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: them are backups I think they have. They're starting right

153
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 1: tackle and I want to say maybe their center, and

154
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody else in their starting eleven on

155
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: offense are starters. That's absolutely crazy that that's where these

156
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: two teams are at and they're still playing a game.

157
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: But hey, the NFL said, we are going to do

158
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: everything we can to get these games played. Even if

159
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: that means that your starters are out of the game,

160
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: the game is still going to be played. That's why

161
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: you have an expanded practice squad for a reason this year.

162
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: And I know that the Dan Patrick Show was thrown

163
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: it around. Wow, I wonder if the game because they're

164
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 1: saying the game is still on tonight, there were no

165
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 1: new positives in either NFL city with either team Green

166
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,439
Speaker 1: Bay or San France, so I know on the Dan

167
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: Patrick's show they raised the question, well, I wonder if

168
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers couldn't play, if they would have kept the

169
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: game on. NFLPR man Brian McCarthy responded to that on

170
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: Twitter and he said, yes, we would still play the game.

171
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: They are not canceling games unless it is a catastrophic

172
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: outbreak where a team literally doesn't have enough players to

173
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 1: put on the field. I think that's the only thing

174
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: that stops it from being played because these NFL clubs

175
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: have already lost a good amount of revenue to begin

176
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: with with for the majority of the teams, no fans

177
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 1: in the stands, So you've lost all of that ticket

178
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: revenue to this point in the season to chew in

179
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 1: to bite into that television revenue because you'd have to

180
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: provide givebacks if you can't air a game that was

181
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 1: promised to a network. I don't think they want to

182
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: go down that road in any way, shape or form,

183
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: because then you know, then the league gets into an

184
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: area where they could lose their shirt, you know, like

185
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,439
Speaker 1: just I mean, you get into a deficit that is

186
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 1: going to be even harder to climb out of. They're

187
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: already going to have a revenue shortfall this year. And

188
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 1: believe me, I know a lot of other people and

189
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: a lot of small businesses are suffering to a far

190
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 1: greater degree than the National Football League. But that is

191
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 1: why they are full steam ahead. We are you know,

192
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: do not pass, go, do not collect two hundred dollars.

193
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: Let's just keep on going and keeping it on schedule too.

194
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: Keep on keeping on is kind of the modus operandi

195
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: of the NFL to this point. And believe me, we're

196
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: happy for it because we want to see the games,

197
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: but we don't want to jeopardize anybody's health in the process.

198
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: And you know, as we said, the league's done a

199
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: really nice job in terms of getting these games played,

200
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: keeping players safe, following all the protocols, enforcing the protocols,

201
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 1: finding teams that aren't adhering to them. So, you know,

202
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 1: soup to nuts, they've done a pretty good job in

203
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: keeping this twenty twenty season on schedule. Okay, we got

204
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: to talk Bill Seahawks. Enough about COVID, because this is

205
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 1: a gigantic game this weekend, as we all know, and

206
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 1: we're kind of splitting hairs here a little bit with

207
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: our Twitter poll today, but we're curious as to where

208
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: you're at with respect to this game and what you

209
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: want to see the most. So we know that playing

210
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: a complete game has been somewhat elusive for the Bills.

211
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: Either their offense has been on fire, or their defense

212
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: comes up big, or their special teams accounts for all

213
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,319
Speaker 1: the points in a game. We've seen it all three

214
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,319
Speaker 1: ways so far this season, and I know we've had

215
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 1: some callers the last couple of weeks saying, when are

216
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,679
Speaker 1: they just going to play a complete game where they

217
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: just lock it all down? Offense, defense, special teams is

218
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: great and we win going away. And I don't know

219
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: if that is I don't know how realistic that is

220
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: in this day and age in the NFL. The teams

221
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 1: are too good and a lot of them are pretty

222
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: well balanced in terms of competition level. So we'll ask

223
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: you and throw it out to you and see how

224
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: you feel about this, But what do you want to

225
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: see the most in Sunday's game against the Seahawks eight

226
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 1: oh three, five fifty one, eight eight fifty two, five fifty.

227
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: We do have choices on the Twitter poll, it's a

228
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,959
Speaker 1: Josh and the offense going toe to toe with Russell

229
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 1: and the Seahawks attack be the defense controls Wilson and company.

230
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: We didn't say stop them because nobody really has or

231
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: see just to win no matter what it looks like,

232
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: we'll take it or d something else that you might

233
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: have in mind. Where do you kind of come down

234
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: on this, Manny, I don't know. I want a I

235
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 1: really want to see this offense go toe to toe

236
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 1: with the Seahawks, and I think looking at the Seahawks defense,

237
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: you get a little slice of hope that maybe that

238
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 1: can actually happen because of the yards they've been allowing

239
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: every single day or every single game, and the points

240
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 1: they've been allowing every single game. So I think it's possible.

241
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: But I think this offense needs to turn on something

242
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: they haven't done since those early weeks in the season

243
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: when defenses were still honestly trying to figure out the Bills.

244
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: And I think that defensives have figured them out. They're

245
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: gonna play that soft zone. And I spoke with the

246
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 1: Seahawks reporter earlier this morning, which the interview is going

247
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: to air tomorrow. But one thing she pointed to is

248
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: like these stats that you see from the Seahawks defense

249
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: that make the defense look bad. They're thirty second in

250
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: the league right now, allowing four hundred sixty total yards

251
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: of offense a game. But the reason why they're allowing

252
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,439
Speaker 1: so many yards is because they play that soft zone

253
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 1: where they let teams run the ball, they let teams

254
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 1: throw the ball. Their their goal is to just keep

255
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 1: it all in front of them. They have been allowing

256
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,319
Speaker 1: I think twenty eight points a game, but it's been

257
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: okay because the Seahawks offense is averaging thirty four points

258
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: a game. So, like we've seen Josh Allen and his

259
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 1: offense have to do the previous weeks, you're gonna have

260
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: to string together those long drives. You're gonna have to

261
00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: make it into the red zone. And when you get

262
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: into the red zone, this game, more than a lot

263
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: of games, you have to score touchdowns. Field goals are

264
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: crap in this game, just to throw them out because

265
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 1: they don't matter if you want to beat I hope

266
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: you're not listening. Tyler Bess Tyler Bass, you are great,

267
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: but we're not gonna win by scoring six field goals

268
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: in this game at all. They're gonna have to run

269
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: the scoreboard up just as much as Russell Wilson and

270
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett do. I'm just messing with you. Yeah,

271
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that the concern here for me,

272
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: from an entertainment value perspective is everybody's like, oh, you know,

273
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: we've shown a capability of scoring big points in games,

274
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: and we know the Seahawks do that every week. This

275
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: should be an exciting shootout kind of game, and I

276
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: know people are hoping for that. But then I go

277
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: back to the to the soft zone and keeping everything

278
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 1: in front of you that both of these defenses have

279
00:14:55,760 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: resorted to pretty predominantly over the last three or four weeks.

280
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: I think the Seahawks can afford to play that defense

281
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: because they're always playing with the lead. They have not

282
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 1: entered a single fourth quarter this season without being ahead

283
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 1: on the scoreboard. They've never been behind. So you look

284
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: at the yardage, you say, oh, my god, they've given

285
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: up more yardage than anybody in the league, and you're like,

286
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: my god, their defense is a sieve, well, not necessarily.

287
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 1: I mean, as you mentioned, you know, they're playing soft

288
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 1: coverage on defense. They're doing ben but don't break, and

289
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: then when they get in the red zone they try

290
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 1: to lock it down and force field goals because if

291
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: they do that, as you pointed out, they're probably gonna

292
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: win because they're scoring over thirty four points a game.

293
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just hoping, and this is just me

294
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: being selfish, I'm just hoping that this soft defense that

295
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 1: the Seahawks play is not nearly as effective as it's

296
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: been in recent weeks. Now. I don't know how you

297
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: can call it truly effective because they are giving up

298
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 1: over twenty eight points a game, but it's effective enough

299
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: because their offense is been great. Um. I hope they

300
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: play that way because I think that Josh, especially in

301
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 1: that Jets game madd he learned how to be patient

302
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 1: and just take the underneath stuff and work their way

303
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 1: down the field. It requires the offense to be more efficient,

304
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 1: more mistake free, because number one, you're executing more plays.

305
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: Number Two, the gains are less in terms of yardage.

306
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: So if you get a holding penalty, that sets you back,

307
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: yes a lot, right, and that can you know, that

308
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: can compromise the drive all together because it puts you

309
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: behind the sticks, and now it's harder to stay on

310
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: the field, etc. Etc. But the Bills, I think, I

311
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: think what's big for them is they're leading the league

312
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 1: in third down conversions and that has to continue on Sunday,

313
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: not only to keep those drives alive when they're probably

314
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: gonna have to nickel and dime their way down the field,

315
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: but staying on the field on those eight, ten, maybe

316
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 1: twelve play scoring drives is going to keep that other

317
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: guy who's the leader for MVP right now on the sideline.

318
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: And they don't seem to care how long a drive takes.

319
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: And they have big playability. And I know DK Metcalf

320
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,640
Speaker 1: already leads the league in receptions of twenty five yards

321
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 1: or more. He's got ten already ten in seven games.

322
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: Touchdown man more than one a game. And so that

323
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 1: just convinces me that the Bills are going to play

324
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: nothing cheap, nothing deep, to keep it all in front

325
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 1: of us. You know, you want to take your eight

326
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: to ten yard catches all you want, but we're not

327
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 1: giving you yards after catch and we're not going to

328
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 1: let you run by us by playing type man coverage.

329
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure they'll try to mix it up

330
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: to some degree, but we just the our MSG viewers

331
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: just watched he takes a short en route and cuts

332
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 1: it all the way across the field and he's in

333
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 1: the end zone for a touchdown. Like people know that

334
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: he's big, I don't know if everybody knows. The guy

335
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: runs a four to three six, so you know that's

336
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: that's another issue. He took a four yard stop route,

337
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 1: it's like a hitch route, and went the distance for

338
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: a touchdown. So even if you keep him in front

339
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: of you, you gotta wrap up. You better tackle or

340
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: you're gonna he is a he is a two handsful

341
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: of problems. He's not a handful, he's too handsful because

342
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: he is tough to stop. He really is. It's gonna

343
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 1: be interesting to see what the Bills decide to do

344
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 1: against him defensively, whether they roll a safety over the

345
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 1: top to his side the whole time, because that's a

346
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: dangerous game too many as you know. I mean, all

347
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: you gotta do is look at the numbers. I mean,

348
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 1: he Unlockett. It's like they got seven touchdowns each. Yes,

349
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: it's not like all right, Well, shut down Metcalfe and

350
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 1: we're good. It's not that way, and that I think

351
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 1: that's why they have been such a prolific scoring team

352
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: this year. I think Matt Mlano and Micah Hide's health

353
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: in this game are so impact. With Tyler Lockett, with

354
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 1: Tea metcalf Chris Carson, Carlos Hide, their status health wise

355
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: for this game is a little questionable. So I think

356
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 1: you really have to focus on what this team does

357
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: in the passing game and hope that you have a

358
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: Tremaine Edmonds, a Matt Milano that can play their toughest

359
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 1: and not have to hold back at all, not necessarily

360
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,400
Speaker 1: have to be on the pitch count that we've seen

361
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: Matt Milano on all season when he's been been on

362
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: the field, and having Micah Hide back I think will

363
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,920
Speaker 1: be a huge gain for the Bills. You have Tredavious White.

364
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,679
Speaker 1: I really like our secondary when they're healthy. I believe

365
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: in our secondary against these talented receivers, but I think

366
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 1: you have to have them all there. Yeah, and what

367
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm trying to think now. I think Week

368
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: one they had Wallace White Hide employer. Week two they did,

369
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: but then Wallace got hurt in Week two or Week three. No,

370
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 1: he got hurt in week war against the Raiders. That's

371
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: when he rolled his ankle, but Norman was not available.

372
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,120
Speaker 1: So I want to say the first three games they

373
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 1: had their starting secondary, but since then it's been a

374
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:15,360
Speaker 1: hodgepodge and a mishmash, and they don't have their core

375
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 1: four guys back there for biggest defense now they usually

376
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,919
Speaker 1: play with five dbs anyway, and even that's been a

377
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 1: mixed bag because Tarn Johnson was in and then cam

378
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 1: Lewis replaced him, and then cam Lewis got hurt, Arn

379
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: Johnson came back in, So even that's been somewhat in

380
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 1: the state of flux. And I think the injuries have

381
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 1: really compromised the effectiveness of this defense. Eight oh three,

382
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: oh five fifty one eighty eight five fifty two, five

383
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,719
Speaker 1: fifty To get on board with us and tell us

384
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,719
Speaker 1: what you want to see the most in Sunday's game

385
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 1: against the Seahawks is that the offense going toe to

386
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: toe with Russell Wilson and the Seahawks attack. Is that

387
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: the defense slowing down Wilson and company. Is it? Hey man,

388
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 1: let's just get out of here with a W. This

389
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: is gonna be hard enough. I don't need to choose

390
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: how they do it. Let's just try and hope they

391
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 1: do it or is it something else? And the early

392
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: going is is in category C. I mean, over fifty

393
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,719
Speaker 1: four percent of you are like, hey, can we just

394
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 1: win and get the heck out of there with a W? Yeah,

395
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 1: I'm I'm not going to complain as long as you

396
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: get to win. I mean, the more and more I'm

397
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 1: watching this season unfold, the more and more I'm I'm

398
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 1: turning into Al Davis because I'm just sitting here going

399
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,160
Speaker 1: just win baby. That was his motto, Just win baby,

400
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 1: and I am kind of in the same boat there,

401
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,639
Speaker 1: just win because and I was. I was. It's funny

402
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: because I was talking to a caller earlier in the week,

403
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 1: Maddie when me and Steve were in here, and the

404
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 1: guy was like, yeah, you know, they got the win

405
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: over the Patriots finally, but you know they were inches

406
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 1: away from losing that game, and I feel we kind

407
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: of lucked our way into it. I don't feel good

408
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,239
Speaker 1: about I'm like, all right, hold on, I said, let

409
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 1: me explain something to you. I said, this win was

410
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 1: huge towards this team winning the division and getting a

411
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: whole playoff game. They moved to four and oz in

412
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: the division with two division games left to play, And

413
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 1: no matter what happens over these next five weeks here,

414
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 1: whether they go three and two, four and one, two

415
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 1: and three we're hoping not one and four, they're still

416
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 1: gonna be okay coming down the stretch because those two

417
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: division games are still there at the end. And I mean,

418
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,679
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, you gotta win games, especially the

419
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: AFC conference games. You know, like the LA Chargers game

420
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 1: is a little bit more important than these NFC West games.

421
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 1: The Steelers game is a little bit more important than

422
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 1: the NFC West games, as is the Broncos game. But

423
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: if you get to the end of the season and

424
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 1: they've won the division, how much are you really going

425
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: to worry about how they won the week Gate game

426
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: against the Patriots? Are you gonna worry about that? You're not,

427
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: so just win the dang game. That's I get. I

428
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: gravitate more and more to that side of the ledger

429
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 1: than I ever have before. I don't care about pretty,

430
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: I don't care about ugly. Win the game, because that's

431
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: what's going to get you better. Playoff positioning anyway, and

432
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 1: then when you get to the playoffs, Okay, this is

433
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 1: where the rubber meets the road. This is where you

434
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: got to play your best football. You just gotta get there,

435
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 1: no matter how you do it exactly. All right, stack

436
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 1: up the wins. We have to take a break, but

437
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: we want to get we want to hear from you.

438
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: We will get to the tweet sheet when we return

439
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:24,639
Speaker 1: on what you want to see the most from in

440
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 1: Sunday's game against the Seahawks, And in a very short

441
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: period of time, we are going to dispatch Maddie to

442
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: her regular assignment checking things out on the practice field,

443
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 1: So we will like part ways momentarily while she does

444
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 1: what she's usually here to do. At least it's good weather.

445
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got a great weather week out there.

446
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 1: I'm a little jealous, you know, being cooped up in here,

447
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: but we will send Maddie out. We'll get an update

448
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 1: from the practice field. As we all know, it's a

449
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 1: long injury list, so there'll be a lot of updates

450
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 1: coming there. Stay with us here on One Bill's Live

Speaker 1: brown Back with you here on one Bill's Live. We

453
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 1: have dispatched Maddie Glab out to the practice field. She'll

454
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,120
Speaker 1: be reporting back to us probably, I don't know, about

455
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: ten minutes time or so, to give us an update

456
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 1: on who is and who is not practicing. And I

457
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: mean the list is long, so she's gonna have to

458
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: be checking boxes and running down the list here because

459
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: there was a host of players that either did not

460
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 1: practice or were limited yesterday. John Brown. Here are the

461
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 1: did not practice yesterday John Brown, Jerry Hughes, Darryl Johnson

462
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: was a new addition to the injury report. Then you

463
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 1: had Taiwan Jones who got injured in last Sunday's game,

464
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: left with a hamstring injury, Matt Mulano, Mitch Morrison the

465
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 1: concussion protocol, Josh Norman still with the hamstring, and t

466
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,159
Speaker 1: J Yelden was another edition with a back problem. And

467
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 1: then limited players Vernon Butler, Cody Ford, Micah Hyde, Quentin Jefferson,

468
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: and Brian Winters. So suffice to say that Maddie's got

469
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: some work to do out there to get tabs on

470
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,679
Speaker 1: all of these players before we get her on, probably

471
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: in about ten fifteen minutes time. Eight o three oh

472
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 1: five fifty one eighty eight five fifty two five fifty

473
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,199
Speaker 1: to join us here on the show as we're asking

474
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 1: you what you want to see the most in Sunday's

475
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: game against the Seahawks. Is at a Josh and the

476
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: offense going toe to toe with Russell Wilson and the

477
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: Seahawks offense. Is it be the defense slowing down Wilson

478
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 1: and company? See just win baby, don't care what it

479
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: looks like, or d something else? Eight three oh five

480
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 1: fifty got an open line for you there if you

481
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: want to join us and chime in on that or

482
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 1: anything else you have regarding the game. We do want

483
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 1: to get to the tweet sheet, though, which as always

484
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 1: is brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official

485
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 1: equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills, and first on

486
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: the list today is Jack. He says, I don't care

487
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,199
Speaker 1: how by hook or by crook find a way to

488
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 1: score more points than Seattle when the clock strikes zero.

489
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,119
Speaker 1: If it's by Allan's arm, awesome, If it's by his

490
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 1: legs or mosses, mosses cool. I don't know what that means.

491
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,479
Speaker 1: If the oh, if it or if it's if it's

492
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's leg or Moss's legs. Cool. If the d

493
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 1: forces turnovers for points, great, just do it by any

494
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,920
Speaker 1: means possible. This could be a statement win. And that's

495
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: really the second part of the conversation here. What does

496
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 1: what would a victory over the Seahawks mean for this

497
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 1: Bill's team? Would it mean that they have arrived they

498
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: can beat some of the top contenders for the Super Bowl?

499
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,120
Speaker 1: Quite frankly, a lot of people are pegging the Seahawks

500
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: as a super Bowl contender, not just a playoff contender.

501
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,159
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are of the opinion

502
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 1: that the Bills are a playoff contender for sure and

503
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 1: a likely division winner. I don't know if people are

504
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 1: going so far as super Bowl contender just yet. They

505
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 1: haven't won a playoff game since nineteen ninety five so

506
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: and for that matter, they haven't won the division since

507
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety five. So I understand why people are reserving

508
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: judgment and going that far on the Bills. But man,

509
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: you beat the Seattle Seahawks, even if it is here

510
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 1: at home, that's going to be a statement win. I

511
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 1: agree with Jack, and I also agree with Jack that

512
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 1: I don't care how the heck they do it, whether

513
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,919
Speaker 1: you need some help from special teams. Maybe Andre Roberts

514
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 1: get to return for a touchdown. Maybe the defense gets

515
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: a pick, although Russell Wilson doesn't turn it over all

516
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 1: that much. I'm good with that. Or maybe the offense

517
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: gets back to what they were the first four weeks

518
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: of the season. All good as far as I'm concerned.

519
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,440
Speaker 1: Whatever it takes, just get a win is where I'm

520
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 1: coming from. From Matt on the tweed sheet. I would

521
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 1: absolutely love for Alan to go toe to toe with

522
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,440
Speaker 1: Wilson and come out with a w. But I really

523
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 1: think the Bills d is going to step up and

524
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 1: make it easier on the offense. They owe them four

525
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:09,919
Speaker 1: wins already. It's interesting that you say that, because I

526
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 1: don't think the Bills as a team ever think that way,

527
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: Because there are countless number of times I've gotten in

528
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:21,200
Speaker 1: that locker room after games, especially over these past two

529
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 1: or three seasons, when the defense really held it down

530
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,439
Speaker 1: and was the reason they won football games, and you

531
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 1: would go and ask offensive players, you know, do you

532
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 1: kind of feel bad that the defense had to go

533
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 1: out there two more times because you guys couldn't string

534
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: together some first downs and pad the lead a little bit,

535
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: so the defense had some breathing room and it wasn't

536
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: a three point game or whatever. And invariably players will say,

537
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 1: that's not how we look at it. There's a team game,

538
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: and there's gonna be games where we need to lean

539
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: on the defense more than the offense, and there's gonna

540
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: be games where maybe we need a little extra help

541
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 1: from special teams with field position, and so they never

542
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 1: really look at it like, man, the defense is airing

543
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 1: us every single week, or the offense is racking up

544
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: points every single week. When's the defense going to do

545
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 1: something That's not how this team operates here. So it's

546
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: interesting that you know, as fans, you're naturally going to

547
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 1: look at it that way when one side of the

548
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: ball is clearly outperforming the other. The players don't do that,

549
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 1: which I always think is an interesting perspective that's far

550
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 1: different from how fans perceive games and how fans perceive

551
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 1: which part of the team is carrying the load. Eight

552
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 1: oh three oh five fifty one eight eight five fifty

553
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 1: two five fifty. If you want to weigh in on

554
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: this and what you'd like to see in Sunday's game

555
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: in terms of performance from the Bills, and you know

556
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 1: which part of the team really kind of carries the

557
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 1: day from addicted to golf, He goes with choice A,

558
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 1: which was Josh Allen and the offense going toe to

559
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: toe with Russell Wilson and the Seahawks offense. He says,

560
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: most definitely, you have to go toe to toe with Seattle.

561
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 1: It's the only way to beat them. We need the

562
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 1: air attack to be at its strongest and take big

563
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 1: opportunities when we can with a very weak Seattle defense.

564
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: Now here's a bit of a conundrum. Okay, while I

565
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 1: totally respect you know, fighting fire with fire, because all

566
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,240
Speaker 1: you have to do is look at the scoreboard and say, Okay,

567
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: this team's averaging almost thirty five points a game. They're

568
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 1: the only team in the league that has scored at

569
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 1: least four touchdowns in every single game they've played, and

570
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson has thrown at least three touchdown passes in

571
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: every single game he has played. So you say to yourself, well,

572
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 1: the only way to fight that is by being just

573
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 1: as prolific on offense. While I want to say you

574
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: have to be I think unquestionably on offense. You have

575
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: to be aggressive. You cannot be conservative against this team,

576
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 1: and that might mean going for you know, a fourth

577
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 1: and two that's in no man's land there, just on

578
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 1: the other side of the fifty, especially if you're already

579
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: down ten points or something like that. I think there

580
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: have to be aggressive decisions that are made to keep

581
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 1: up with you know what is well, they're fourth, what

582
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 1: are they the highest scoring team in the league. Yeah,

583
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: I mean that's what you gotta do if you're going

584
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: to keep pace with these guys. Now, who knows, maybe

585
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 1: your defense does come up big, and maybe Russell Wilson

586
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: isn't killing it and playing his normal football. Maybe he

587
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 1: has a day like he had in Arizona a couple

588
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 1: of weeks ago and throws three picks. Maybe the defense

589
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 1: does bring more to the table in a game that

590
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 1: maybe a lot of people going in didn't anticipate they

591
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: would if they can fantastic. But I think because if

592
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 1: the evidence presented by the Bills offense the first four weeks,

593
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are of the opinion

594
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: that the best way that the Bills are gonna find

595
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: their way to a win is by going toe to

596
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: toe with this Russell Wilson offense and trying to match

597
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: them score for score. I think they are going to

598
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:00,480
Speaker 1: have to pick it up though in the red zone.

599
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs actually addressed this with the media when he

600
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: spoke to the media yesterday. He was kind of asked

601
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: for his midseason assessment of the Bills offense, and he said, look,

602
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 1: I don't think we're in a bad place, but I

603
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 1: don't think we're in a good place either. We're somewhere

604
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: in between. We've shown what we're capable of, but we've

605
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: stubbed our toes sometimes too. And so where he came

606
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 1: down was, we're on the right path, but we've still

607
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 1: got some work to do, and the second half of

608
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 1: the season is when it all needs to come together.

609
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 1: November and December is when teams start to peak, and

610
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: the Bills may want to peak this week if they

611
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: want to not only hang with the Seahawks but stand

612
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 1: a chance of beating them. All Right, we have to

613
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 1: take a break, but when we return, we'll get to

614
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: get out to Maddie glab on the practice field as

615
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: she is patrolling the sidelines right now and marking down

616
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: names as to who's practicing and who's not on what

617
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: is a very long injury list for the Bills. We'll

618
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: get updates there when we return on One Bill's Live,

619
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 1: presented by Kalida. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. Welcome back to

620
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 1: One Bills Live. Chris Brown with you here in the

621
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: Seneca studios and out on the practice field set to

622
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 1: give us the four one one on the Bill's injury

623
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 1: list is one Maddie Glad. First, she's in studio poof

624
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: Now she's out on the practice field and enjoying the

625
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 1: nice fall weather we're getting this week. And Maddie, I

626
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: guess the good news there's good news to start off

627
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 1: with here concerning Dawson Knox. Correct. Yes, the good news

628
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: is that Dawson Knox is out here in a jersey

629
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 1: and a helmet and he's practicing something that we haven't

630
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 1: seen in a while because he had an injury. Then

631
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: he went onto the COVID list. So Dawson Knox is back.

632
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 1: We'll see if he was limited today in practice later

633
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 1: when the injury report comes out, but so far, so

634
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: good for him. Yeah, And I guess what we can

635
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:09,760
Speaker 1: definitively say here is that he's probably over his calf injury.

636
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,320
Speaker 1: If he's out here practicing to some degree, maybe not completely,

637
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,760
Speaker 1: but he's practicing, so that should rule out the injury problem.

638
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 1: I guess all we have to figure out now is

639
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:24,240
Speaker 1: if and when he's taken off the COVID reserve list, right, Yeah, definitely,

640
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 1: that's definitely good to hear about his calf injury. And

641
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 1: he was rehabbing that calf injury before he went onto

642
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,799
Speaker 1: the COVID nineteen lists. So interesting to see how much

643
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 1: rehab he actually got before he was cooped up at

644
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: home for what a week or two that he wasn't

645
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 1: able to be in the facility. But now he's back,

646
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:46,800
Speaker 1: isn't in a Red jersey at all. That's got to

647
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 1: be a good sign for his health. Yeah, and then

648
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 1: we know we've already seen some of the answers here

649
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 1: Maddie on the tweet sheet. People want this Bill's offense

650
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 1: to go toe to toe with the Seahawks high flying offense.

651
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,240
Speaker 1: That would be harder to do without John Brown obviously

652
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,360
Speaker 1: on Sunday, So where does John Brown sit at this

653
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: point in time today? Yeah, So I'm looking at John

654
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 1: Brown right now. He's hanging out with the wide receiver

655
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 1: group doesn't have a red jersey on. He is that practice,

656
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 1: has a helmet today, so that's all good with his

657
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 1: knee injury that he's been dealing with, so hopefully he'll

658
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 1: participate in practice today. Fully, we do know he was

659
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 1: out yesterday from practice. Didn't see him on the field

660
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: at all, so good to have him back here on

661
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 1: a Wednesday. Yesterday was full pads. Today they are not

662
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: in full pads, okay. And then we know that Micah

663
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 1: Hyde took a step closer to returning from concussion protocol

664
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 1: yesterday because he was doing football related activities, albeit in

665
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 1: a red non contact jersey, but we figured he was

666
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 1: in step four of the return to play concussion protocol.

667
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: Is he out there number one and the red jersey

668
00:35:55,600 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: still on number two? He is out there's number one

669
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: on out here at practice, and yes, the red jersey

670
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,840
Speaker 1: has came off Micah Hyde, so there are no non

671
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 1: contact jerseys on any of the guys who were injured

672
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,319
Speaker 1: from this past week are currently injured. So he's the

673
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 1: only one who did have a red non contact jersey

674
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: on yesterday that has come off today. All right, So

675
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:23,280
Speaker 1: we'll have to wait for an official word from the team,

676
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:26,360
Speaker 1: because I do know you can practice fully and still

677
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 1: be in the concussion protocol. So we'll have to get

678
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 1: word from the team as to whether or not he's

679
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 1: officially out of concussion protocol, but certainly a good sign

680
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: with the red non contact jersey off. Okay, this is now.

681
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:40,919
Speaker 1: We're going to head to a position group, Maddie, where

682
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,759
Speaker 1: they've got the greatest number of players on the injury list,

683
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 1: and that would be the defensive line. Why don't you

684
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,399
Speaker 1: give us a rundown there of what we're looking at

685
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 1: in terms of the players that at least popped up

686
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 1: on the injury list yesterday. Yeah, all right, let me

687
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,879
Speaker 1: catch my breath here, because there's quite a few. So

688
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: Quintin Jefferson was on it yesterday. He was limited with

689
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 1: the knee injury. He is at practice right now, not

690
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 1: in a red non contact jersey. Let's see who else

691
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 1: is there. Darryl Johnson did not practice yesterday. He was

692
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 1: kind of hanging around on the sidelines. He was labeled

693
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,919
Speaker 1: with a knee injury. He is out here today doing

694
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 1: something similar. He's got a T shirt with his number on,

695
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 1: but doesn't look like he's practicing. Vernon Butler was another

696
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 1: player who was on the injury repoort yesterday with a

697
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 1: groin injury. He was labeled as limited yesterday. He is

698
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:34,759
Speaker 1: out here today. And then the final one would be

699
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,359
Speaker 1: Mario Addison is out here and just j T shirt

700
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 1: with his number on it. Does it look like he's

701
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,399
Speaker 1: doing too much practicing. It could be a veteran rest

702
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,839
Speaker 1: day for Mario Addison. He had one of those last week.

703
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 1: I think that's something that we can expect for an

704
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 1: older veteran player as we are in week nine. And

705
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 1: then Jerry Hughes too because he popped up on the end.

706
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 1: Very huge one more. If Jerry Hughes was not at

707
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 1: practice yesterday he had at foot injury. Three. Didn't see

708
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,800
Speaker 1: him at all at practice yesterday. He's out here today.

709
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 1: Looks like he is not being limited at all and

710
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 1: what he's wearing. But we'll see if he pops up

711
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 1: as limited on the injury reports later this afternoon. All right,

712
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 1: So now we moved to the other side of the

713
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:19,800
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage here Maddie, Mitch Morrise, and Cody Ford.

714
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 1: So we know that Mitch Morris is in the concussion

715
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,400
Speaker 1: protocol came out of the game on Sunday, did not return.

716
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 1: He is on the side working out with our strength

717
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 1: with our strength staff and a couple other players. He's

718
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 1: working out with Josh Norman and Cam Lewis right now,

719
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 1: so good to see him actually out at practice being active.

720
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 1: The other offensive lineman, Cody Ford, he's out here practicing,

721
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: and Brian Winters, who is dealing with that kneat injury,

722
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,360
Speaker 1: was limited yesterday. He is back out here today. Cody

723
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 1: Ford also limited yesterday with that kneat injury, but both

724
00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 1: of them are practicing today. Okay, that's good. And now

725
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,760
Speaker 1: the names, one of which you mentioned already, Josh Norman,

726
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 1: so he's just doing stuff on the side. Where do

727
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:10,360
Speaker 1: we Where do we stand with Matt Milano? Matt Milano.

728
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,760
Speaker 1: I do not see him out here at all. So

729
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 1: Matt Milano is not practicing today, has not made his

730
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: way onto the field at least since I've been out here.

731
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:21,840
Speaker 1: Not sure if he was out here during stretch and

732
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 1: made his way back inside, but he is not out

733
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: here right now. Okay, all right, Mattie, take a deep breath.

734
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 1: I think we got through everybody there and we'll see

735
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: you back. I believe so as well. T J. Yelden

736
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 1: also not practicing today. Let me see if there's anybody else.

737
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 1: Taiwan Jones not practicing. He's got that hamstring injury. So

738
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,399
Speaker 1: I think that's the only two that we didn't go over.

739
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: And the Buffalo Bills just tweeted out that Dawson Knox

740
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 1: has been activated from the COVID nineteen list, So that's

741
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 1: what we were waiting for here. It is off the

742
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen lists, so it looks like if he can

743
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,799
Speaker 1: get through practice this week, he is good to go.

744
00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,239
Speaker 1: All right, excellent stuff, Maddie, take a deep breath, make

745
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:01,879
Speaker 1: your way back in here, and we'll see you after

746
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 1: the break. That is good stuff. That is a lengthy

747
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,839
Speaker 1: but necessary update from Maddy Klab on the practice field.

748
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,839
Speaker 1: So we're up to speed on everybody that appeared on

749
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,760
Speaker 1: the injury list and a new edition as well Mario Addison,

750
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:17,879
Speaker 1: But hopefully that's just a veteran rest day for him

751
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 1: come the second half of the season. That becomes more

752
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: and more prevalent with veteran players like him, a ten

753
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 1: year veteran. We will take a break and when we

754
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 1: come back, we'll close up our number one of the show.

755
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,919
Speaker 1: But It is One Bill's Live, presented by Kalida Health.

00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 1: this weekend. He's been out since Week three with a

769
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: groin injury. The Seahawks running back situation, however, is still

770
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: a bit dicey. Chris Carson, Carlos Hyde, and Travis Homer

771
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,280
Speaker 1: were all held out of Wednesday's practice for the Seahawks

772
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:47,360
Speaker 1: with injuries, despite positive COVID nineteen tests for both the

773
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine Ers and Green Bay Packers this week.

774
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 1: The NFL will move forward with Thursday Night football tonight

775
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 1: after there were no additional positive tests for Wednesday's round

776
00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 1: of testing that was revealed this morning. The forty nine Ers, however,

777
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 1: will be without wide receivers Kendrick Bourne, Brandon Ayuke, and

778
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel, along with left tackle Trent Williams. The Packers

779
00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 1: will be down a running back or two after their

780
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 1: contact tracing revealed them to be in close proximity to

781
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,799
Speaker 1: a player who tested positive. The Houston Texans and Indianapolis

782
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 1: Colts are also dealing with COVID nineteen issues. The Texans

783
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:25,440
Speaker 1: announced Thursday they are shutting down for the day after

784
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 1: a player tested positive for COVID nineteen. Texans players will

785
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 1: work remotely. As for the Colts, the team announced a

786
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 1: staff member tested positive, so the Colts will hold practice,

787
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,720
Speaker 1: but they will hold their meetings afterwards virtually. And Dolphins

788
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: leading rusher Miles Gaskin will miss at least three games

789
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 1: due to a knee injury. Coach Brian Flores told reporters

790
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 1: Thursday that Gaskin will be placed on ir due to

791
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,480
Speaker 1: a knee injury suffered last weekend. That is your sports

792
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 1: update here from One Bill's Drive. Chris Brown, Mandy glab

793
00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 1: with you as we are closing in on our number

794
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 1: two of the program. We've got the Twitter poll out

795
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,400
Speaker 1: there for your respond to. We're also taking your phone

796
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 1: calls at eight o three oh five fifty in terms

797
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: of what you want to see this weekend. If you

798
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,480
Speaker 1: have any other questions about the team, if you have

799
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 1: some concerns about some of the matchups, you can let

800
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: us know about those two and we'll try to calm

801
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:21,879
Speaker 1: your fears at eight fifty and nice. Is it nice

802
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 1: out there? It looks nice. I think we should take

803
00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:27,400
Speaker 1: the show on the run and to move the show

804
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: outside for the rest of the day. Just got to

805
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 1: have good wind screens on the microphones out here because

806
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 1: it's always breezy. True, but yeah, I would. I'd be

807
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:37,959
Speaker 1: all over that. I was telling you during the break,

808
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 1: I've I got to run home and break the leaves

809
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 1: before the sun goes down, because I'd much rather do

810
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,879
Speaker 1: it now when it's sixty five degrees and sunny than

811
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,879
Speaker 1: when it's thirty eight and wet, because breaking leaves when

812
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 1: it's wet is no fun at all. Um, So I'm

813
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 1: trying to get all the outdoor stuff done this week

814
00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 1: before the real nasty stuff starts showing up weather. Yeah.

815
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:04,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, definitely. So I was reading a couple of

816
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:08,320
Speaker 1: the tweets while you were rushing out to practice, Maddie,

817
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 1: and I found it interesting that it seems to be

818
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 1: a mix right now in the early going, where some

819
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:17,840
Speaker 1: people are saying, hey, let's just win the dang game,

820
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:20,120
Speaker 1: but then there's other people that say, no, I want

821
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 1: the shootout. I want the shootout. And I think it's

822
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:26,320
Speaker 1: the entertainment value obviously of the shootout that's so appealing,

823
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:29,759
Speaker 1: But I also think it's partly this, and I don't know.

824
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,479
Speaker 1: You can tell me if you feel differently. I think

825
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 1: people still are desperate for Josh to get more respect

826
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 1: around the league as a quarterback, and so I think

827
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:44,800
Speaker 1: there is a there is a feeling that if Josh

828
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 1: can hang with the guy who is far and away

829
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,359
Speaker 1: the favorite for the MVP of the league, if he

830
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 1: can hang with him and go toe to toe with

831
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: this guy, maybe more people will respect the improvements that

832
00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 1: Josh has made to his game. Where do you think

833
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,680
Speaker 1: of that? I completely agree. I think that's what he

834
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 1: received in the beginning of the season was a lot

835
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:08,560
Speaker 1: more respect than people had ever given him. The way

836
00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 1: that he came out, the way that he performed, the

837
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,800
Speaker 1: way that he strung together those three hundred yard games

838
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:17,400
Speaker 1: of four hundred yard game against the Miami Dolphins, and

839
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 1: then we saw the defenses change the way they played

840
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,839
Speaker 1: against him, and that hurt his stat line a little bit.

841
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:24,880
Speaker 1: A lot of things that fans like to look to

842
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: that I really like to look to when I'm talking

843
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: on radio or whatever, is to look at the stats.

844
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:33,400
Speaker 1: And I feel like we saw the national media back

845
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 1: off a little bit. There was the MVP conversation for

846
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 1: Josh Allen early in the season, an early MVP candidate,

847
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 1: many many people called him. And then you saw the

848
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: Bills dropped two games against some good teams, and that

849
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,480
Speaker 1: conversation died down. It got a little bit more quiet.

850
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:51,279
Speaker 1: And I also think once you get a taste of

851
00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 1: something like that, you want more, Like the Bills saw

852
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 1: what they've wanted to see Bills fans, and the Bills

853
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,480
Speaker 1: saw what they've wanted to see for so long, and

854
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:02,440
Speaker 1: you see that for like the first three games, you

855
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:04,040
Speaker 1: get a taste of and you're like, oh, this is

856
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 1: this is great. Give me more. I want more, and

857
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:10,319
Speaker 1: I want more, You want more. We all want more.

858
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 1: We've we've seen what this offense can do. I just

859
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:15,160
Speaker 1: want them to break out and do it again. I

860
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 1: don't want it to be just a beginning of the

861
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:20,319
Speaker 1: season thing. But you know, you can only do so

862
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,320
Speaker 1: much when defenses are playing you differently. We should mention

863
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,319
Speaker 1: that a little bit later on in the show. About

864
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,799
Speaker 1: an hour from now, we are going to check in

865
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,360
Speaker 1: with former Seahawks linebacker Loafa to Tupo, who's going to

866
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: break down some of the Seahawks And you know, we

867
00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:37,839
Speaker 1: talked to Warren Moon yesterday, who did a great job

868
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 1: of breaking down the offense. Maybe Loafa to Tupuo can

869
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 1: kind of break down some of the things that's going

870
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:46,920
Speaker 1: on with this Seahawks defense and why although Mannie alluded

871
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 1: to partly why they've given up as much yardage as

872
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 1: they have, they do tend to play soft and keep

873
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 1: everything in front of them, and they're often playing with

874
00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: the lead. But there are some other leaky parts about

875
00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 1: their defense that don't really end up. And so we're

876
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 1: hoping that Loafa, who played for that team for six

877
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,600
Speaker 1: seasons can provide us with some answers. He'll be coming

878
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,319
Speaker 1: up in about an hour from now, and then at

879
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 1: the bottom of the hour, in about twenty eight minutes time,

880
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 1: we're going to have our weekly contest where we ask

881
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 1: you the Bills fan to guess if we're reading a

882
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:24,360
Speaker 1: tweet that's coming from a Dolphan, a Pats fan, or

883
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,600
Speaker 1: a Jets fan. Now, Mattie, I do have to tell

884
00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,919
Speaker 1: you we struggled mightily last week. Our callers were having

885
00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: difficulty with which fan we were talking about. But there

886
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,440
Speaker 1: is a prize involved here, so make sure that you

887
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: get on board for that when we take a break

888
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the hour, because when we come back,

889
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:45,319
Speaker 1: we'll be doing Dolphan, Pats fan or Jets fan And

890
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:48,239
Speaker 1: there is a Cody Ford fanbox on the line for you.

891
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:50,880
Speaker 1: And the shirt is so cool. Yeah, it is pretty

892
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 1: deep on the front lines. It's kind of a military

893
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 1: themed thing because we are getting into Salute to Service

894
00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:59,800
Speaker 1: month here now that we're in November, So good timing

895

Speaker 1: by Cody Ford and our MSG viewers are getting a

896
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:04,880
Speaker 1: look at that shirt. So that shirt will be on

897
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:08,839
Speaker 1: the line along with some other goodies in that fan

898
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 1: box there from Cody Ford, So be ready for that

899
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:14,680
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the hour. But in the meantime,

900
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,399
Speaker 1: we're taking your phone calls at eight oh three oh

901
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:20,399
Speaker 1: five fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two five

902
00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 1: fifty have an open line for you there as we're

903
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 1: discussing what you want to see most in Sunday's game

904
00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 1: against the Seahawks. Whether it's a shootout between Josh and

905
00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, the defense at least slowing down Russell Wilson,

906
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,439
Speaker 1: or just get out of there with a w don't

907
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:36,959
Speaker 1: worry about anything else. Or maybe it is something else,

908
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: so let us know what you think we do. Want

909
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:41,439
Speaker 1: to go back to the tweet sheet, and I left

910
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:45,279
Speaker 1: off with let's see here, who did I finish with? Oh?

911
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,279
Speaker 1: Here it is from Addicted to Golf. He chooses a

912
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 1: He wants the toe to toe battle most definitely. You

913
00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:52,600
Speaker 1: have to go toe to toe with Seattle. It's the

914
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:54,840
Speaker 1: only way to beat them. We need the air attack

915
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 1: to be at its strongest and take big opportunities when

916
00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:01,799
Speaker 1: we can with a very week Seattle defense. I will

917
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:05,319
Speaker 1: say this, Maddie, you know you think about some of

918
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:09,320
Speaker 1: the teams this season because, as we said, Russell Wilson

919
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 1: doesn't turn the ball over very much. That Arizona game,

920
00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:14,399
Speaker 1: he turned it over three times. Three of his six

921
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:18,320
Speaker 1: interceptions this year came in that one game and Arizona

922
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 1: ended up winning the game in overtime, and that's the

923
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:24,399
Speaker 1: only loss for Seattle. And really, turnovers are a way

924
00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 1: to kind of flip the script on them, because if

925
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:29,839
Speaker 1: you want to beat this team, it's almost like you've

926
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:31,920
Speaker 1: got to have more possessions than them at the end

927
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,840
Speaker 1: of the day, and you need like a defensive touchdown

928
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:37,600
Speaker 1: or something there or the defense to get you within

929
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 1: striking difference. I do think turnovers would be a huge

930
00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,960
Speaker 1: help in this game. And to get turnovers, I think

931
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,920
Speaker 1: we need a healthy defense. I think we've seen what

932
00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:51,400
Speaker 1: this defense can't do when they're not healthy, and we

933
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,120
Speaker 1: could we've seen what they can do when they are healthy.

934
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,360
Speaker 1: There's been some positives that we've seen from this defense

935
00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,279
Speaker 1: in the last couple of weeks, being able to slow

936
00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:03,760
Speaker 1: down the run, six sacks from the defense in a game,

937
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:07,040
Speaker 1: a couple turnovers in games. So I want to see

938
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:10,400
Speaker 1: the best performances from this defense that we've seen this season.

939
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:13,600
Speaker 1: Put it all together and just do it against the Seahawks.

940
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:17,520
Speaker 1: I think it's definitely time. And Leslie Fraser said you

941
00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:20,560
Speaker 1: want to play your best in November and December. Well,

942
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:23,319
Speaker 1: November has arrived, and I really want to see this

943
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 1: defense be able to put it all together and play

944
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:29,799
Speaker 1: a complete game from that side of the ball. The

945
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:33,879
Speaker 1: thing that concerns me is Seattle's done a better job

946
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:36,440
Speaker 1: of taking the football away than the Bills have. They

947
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 1: have fourteen takeaways in seven games. They have at least

948
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:44,200
Speaker 1: one interception in every single game this season, and I

949
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:47,480
Speaker 1: mean a total of nine interceptions, and I think they

950
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:50,320
Speaker 1: have five fumble recoveries in seven games. They are tied

951
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 1: for the league lead in takeaways with fourteen in their

952
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 1: first seven games, and their plus seven turnover margin they're

953
00:50:57,040 --> 00:51:00,880
Speaker 1: plus seven his third best in the NFL. So while

954
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 1: I want Josh Allen to go toe to toe here,

955
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 1: I'm a little wary of the takeaway ability of this

956
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:10,360
Speaker 1: Seahawks team. There's a part of me that wants to

957
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 1: believe that number is so big because, as we said earlier,

958
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:17,160
Speaker 1: a lot of teams have to throw the ball to

959
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:20,480
Speaker 1: keep up with the Seahawks, or to catch up to

960
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:23,840
Speaker 1: the Seahawks because they're behind on the scoreboard because Russell

961
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 1: Wilson in that offense is so dang efficient, So maybe

962
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:30,759
Speaker 1: opponents are throwing so much there are a lot more opportunities.

963
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 1: The thing that that confounds me a little bit, though, Maddie,

964
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:36,959
Speaker 1: is we've heard all season about how this Seahawks pass

965
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 1: rush isn't great. So it was struggling so much they

966
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 1: went out and made a trade last week. They got

967
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:45,080
Speaker 1: Carlos Dunlap from the Cincinnati Bengals, who's been a decent

968
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:48,839
Speaker 1: pass rusher his whole career. So you say, well, man,

969
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 1: they're not even you know, being effective with their pass rushing.

970
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:54,880
Speaker 1: Yet they're still getting takeaways because usually you see the

971
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 1: teams that can rush the pass or move them off

972
00:51:56,640 --> 00:52:00,319
Speaker 1: his spot, hurry throws, those are the defenses to get

973
00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:03,919
Speaker 1: the takeaways. This Seahawks defense doesn't have a pass rush

974
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 1: to really speak of, and they're still getting the takeaways.

975
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 1: Is crazy lucky on them. They ranked twenty fourth with

976
00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 1: twelve defensive sacks, so that kind of alludes to the

977
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:18,400
Speaker 1: pass rush. They rank fifteenth blitz percentage wise, doing it

978
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:21,160
Speaker 1: thirty points seven percent of the time, so kind of

979
00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:24,000
Speaker 1: middle of the road there, but yeah, Carlo's Dunlap will

980
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:27,520
Speaker 1: see what he can do. We are also expecting Jamal

981
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 1: Adams to be back from this game. They may blitz

982
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,360
Speaker 1: him a little bit more than next two. I was

983
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 1: just going to say, yeah, yeah, so you're expecting their

984
00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 1: pass rush to get a boost this week because Pete Carroll,

985
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:41,759
Speaker 1: the head coach of the Seahawks, did say yesterday that

986
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:45,120
Speaker 1: all signs are pointing to Dunlap being in the lineup.

987
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 1: He said, I'm not holding him back. He knows everything

988
00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:49,759
Speaker 1: back to front with his defense already, which kind of

989
00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 1: shocked me a little bit. Guy's been there a week. Yeah,

990
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,840
Speaker 1: but you know, he's a veteran player in football's football,

991
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:59,080
Speaker 1: and I know up front on the defensive line, there's

992
00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:01,279
Speaker 1: not a lot of a that you have to do.

993
00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:04,240
Speaker 1: And if he does, you know, one of his teammates,

994
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 1: whether it's the middle linebacker calling the defense, it's just

995
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:07,880
Speaker 1: gonna be like, all right, you gotta move out to

996
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:10,480
Speaker 1: the five technique, you know, kick out there before the snap.

997
00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:12,759
Speaker 1: I mean besides that, I mean, there's not a whole

998
00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:15,120
Speaker 1: lot that he has to know unless he's working a

999
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,839
Speaker 1: stunt or a twist with the defensive tackle. So they're

1000
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:19,960
Speaker 1: gonna roll him out there and we'll see how much

1001
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,160
Speaker 1: playing time he gets. Maybe it's not a lot, but

1002
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 1: maybe he's only in pass rush packages. But you had

1003
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:28,280
Speaker 1: Carlos Dunlap and Jamal Adams to that defense, there should

1004
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 1: be a noticeable uptick in their play collectively. They are

1005
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:35,759
Speaker 1: banged up at the corner position. Ironically enough, you've been

1006
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:39,560
Speaker 1: talking about all these injuries, many for the bill secondary,

1007
00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 1: and you look at the two starting corners for the Seahawks.

1008
00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 1: They're both banged up. I think one of them was

1009
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:48,360
Speaker 1: limited and the other guy didn't practice. You got Shaquille

1010
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:51,480
Speaker 1: Griffin and Quentin Dunbar, and both of those guys are

1011
00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:55,040
Speaker 1: dealing with injuries this week. And I don't know, maybe

1012
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:56,960
Speaker 1: they're not that concerned. Maybe they feel by the end

1013
00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:59,480
Speaker 1: of the week they'll be good enough to go. But

1014
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 1: if you got your two starting corners that are nicked up,

1015
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:05,400
Speaker 1: I mean that's an issue. And we know their running

1016
00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 1: backs are not healthy either. I mean they had their

1017
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: fourth string running back getting the most carried. DJ Dallas

1018
00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:13,919
Speaker 1: was like the only healthy running back they had last week,

1019
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,720
Speaker 1: and those top three guys are still on the injury

1020
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:19,759
Speaker 1: report this week. And they're expecting their third string guy

1021
00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:23,479
Speaker 1: to be healthy enough to be the number one guy

1022
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:26,080
Speaker 1: in this game. And I'm sure that fourth string player

1023
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,800
Speaker 1: will get some more carries, but I think they're banking

1024
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:34,880
Speaker 1: on if they If we can't rely on Hide or

1025
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:38,520
Speaker 1: Carson in this game, then let's rely on Homer and

1026
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:43,040
Speaker 1: hope he's healthy enough. But they barely used him last week,

1027
00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:46,080
Speaker 1: and he's more of a third down back than anything

1028
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:49,520
Speaker 1: in that offense. So you know, let's just say hypothetically,

1029
00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 1: Chris Carson can't go again this week. And I know

1030
00:54:54,560 --> 00:54:57,319
Speaker 1: they were also trying to get Rashad Penny off of

1031
00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:01,320
Speaker 1: IR now. He suffered a torn ac late last season,

1032
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,760
Speaker 1: and so only now is he about nine ten months

1033
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:08,399
Speaker 1: removed from the surgery, all the rehabilitation, you know, all

1034
00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:10,440
Speaker 1: of that stuff. We saw Harrison Phillips go through that

1035
00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:14,080
Speaker 1: in similar fashion. But Harrison Phillips had his knee injury

1036
00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:17,160
Speaker 1: in week three. Rashad Penny had his in like week fifteen,

1037
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:20,680
Speaker 1: So talking about like a two to three month difference there.

1038
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:24,520
Speaker 1: So only now is Rashad Penny finally rounding into form.

1039
00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:26,359
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're going to activate him off

1040
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:28,719
Speaker 1: injury reserve this week, but if you're still down to

1041
00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:31,760
Speaker 1: running backs, you might be apt to at least sprinkle

1042
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:34,200
Speaker 1: him in and activate him so at least have somebody

1043
00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:37,879
Speaker 1: else to turn to this week, because you know they've

1044
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:40,200
Speaker 1: got a situation there where you don't know who you're

1045
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:41,920
Speaker 1: going to have come the end of the week, because

1046
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,480
Speaker 1: right now Chris Carson is I don't think he did.

1047
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:47,279
Speaker 1: I don't think he practiced at all yesterday, and then

1048
00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:49,840
Speaker 1: Carlos Hide was limited and he's got a hamstring injury,

1049
00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:52,200
Speaker 1: which is a difficult injury to come back from with

1050
00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:54,880
Speaker 1: the burst and cut cutting ability that running backs need

1051
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:57,320
Speaker 1: to have to be effective. So it could be Travis

1052
00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 1: Homer and DJ Jallie again, you want have done that

1053
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:02,560
Speaker 1: sound like a rap group? It does, Travis Homer and

1054
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,400
Speaker 1: DJ Dallas. I mean that just sounds like, you know,

1055
00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:07,560
Speaker 1: DJ Jazzy Jeff in the Fresh Prance. I mean, I

1056
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:09,799
Speaker 1: know I'm dating myself here, but to me, that sounds

1057
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:12,440
Speaker 1: like a rap duel more than a running back contingent.

1058
00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 1: I mean, good lord, it definitely does. And this Bill's

1059
00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 1: defense can probably take a sire leave if hid and

1060
00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:23,480
Speaker 1: Carson aren't going to play or are going to be

1061
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:26,719
Speaker 1: very limited in this game, because that's one less thing

1062
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 1: that you have to truly focus on. I think your

1063
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:34,080
Speaker 1: focus is on Russell Wilson and DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.

1064
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 1: But if you add some other talented running backs there

1065
00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:39,120
Speaker 1: into the mix, it gets to be a tough game,

1066
00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:40,960
Speaker 1: and you have to pick and choose what you want

1067
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:42,879
Speaker 1: to slow down and what you want to stop. Much

1068
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:45,640
Speaker 1: like the Chiefs game where they just said, you know what,

1069
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:48,759
Speaker 1: go ahead and run all over us, because we're just

1070
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,879
Speaker 1: going to try and limit the passing attack. I'm kind

1071
00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:55,160
Speaker 1: of perplexed with respect to the running game for the

1072
00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:58,319
Speaker 1: Seahawks because we know they've been hurt, and we know

1073
00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:01,080
Speaker 1: this team is really good at throwing the football, and

1074
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,920
Speaker 1: yet there they are twelfth in the league and rushing.

1075
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:06,880
Speaker 1: Like if you looked at all that this offense is

1076
00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:09,680
Speaker 1: done for the Seahawks, I don't think anybody would have said, oh, yeah,

1077
00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:12,360
Speaker 1: they're you know, they're a top twelve rushing team with

1078
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:14,960
Speaker 1: as injured as they've been and with their propensity to

1079
00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:17,480
Speaker 1: throw the football. But you know, there they are. I

1080
00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:20,800
Speaker 1: mean they're averaging five yards to carry. Now, we shouldn't

1081
00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:23,840
Speaker 1: forget Russell Wilson is the second leading rusher on this team. Yes, yes,

1082
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:27,760
Speaker 1: and that I'm just gonna tell you right now, the

1083
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:30,560
Speaker 1: running player that I'm most concerned about in this game

1084
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:34,480
Speaker 1: is Russell Wilson. I still have scars. I was going

1085
00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 1: to say, do you want to relive two? I was

1086
00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:38,479
Speaker 1: talking to Steve about it the other day. I still

1087
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 1: have scars from the twenty twelve game up in Toronto,

1088
00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:44,080
Speaker 1: where as a rookie quarterback, he didn't throw with the

1089
00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 1: efficiency that he does now. He was still trying to

1090
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 1: figure it all out. And that was a team that

1091
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl because of their defense in

1092
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:52,360
Speaker 1: the Legion of Boom and all of that, and they

1093
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 1: had a good rushing attack and so that's how they

1094
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:57,240
Speaker 1: got there. A good run game and lights out defense.

1095
00:57:57,760 --> 00:57:59,760
Speaker 1: And you know, Russell Wilson was just kind of the

1096
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,000
Speaker 1: care taker, you know, just kind of making sure everything

1097
00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:06,240
Speaker 1: ran on schedule. But man, I mean he came in

1098
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 1: and he made place. He had nine carries for ninety

1099
00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:11,960
Speaker 1: two yards, and he had three rushing touchdowns. It was ridiculous.

1100
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,800
Speaker 1: They had nobody that could keep up with him. And

1101
00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:17,200
Speaker 1: I'm sitting there saying, are we gonna spy this guy?

1102
00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 1: Are we gonna put somebody on him, like to guard

1103
00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:22,080
Speaker 1: against him running out of the pocket and going for

1104
00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 1: another seventeen yards and another first down, and that game

1105
00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 1: and I think it was fifty to seventeen. It ended up.

1106
00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:30,160
Speaker 1: It was just it was a route. I mean, it

1107
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:32,760
Speaker 1: wasn't even fifty to seventeen as the final score. It

1108
00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 1: was ugly box score right now, it was ugly. Was

1109
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:37,480
Speaker 1: he at nine carries for ninety two yards? He had

1110
00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:40,440
Speaker 1: something like that? I mean it was insane. And I

1111
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:43,440
Speaker 1: think he had two or three rushing touchdowns. Maybe he

1112
00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,640
Speaker 1: had nine carries for ninety two yards. He had three

1113
00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:49,360
Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns. There it is Marshawn Lynch had ten ten

1114
00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:52,800
Speaker 1: carries for one hundred and thirteen yards, one rushing touchdowns.

1115
00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:57,240
Speaker 1: They forever etched on my brain. I forget a lot

1116
00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 1: of stuff. I don't think I'll ever forget that your

1117
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:02,960
Speaker 1: average over ten yards to carry on the ground between

1118
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:04,880
Speaker 1: two different So now you know why. Now you know

1119
00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:07,160
Speaker 1: why I'm worried about Russell Wilson escaping the pocket and

1120
00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:09,840
Speaker 1: running around. It's gonna be it's gonna be pretty intriguing

1121
00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 1: for me to see the plan that Leslie Fraser and

1122
00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,240
Speaker 1: the defensive staff come up with for a multitude of

1123
00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 1: reasons here, Maddie. First of all, you got to worry

1124
00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:21,040
Speaker 1: about the two outside guys. You can't focus too much

1125
00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:23,720
Speaker 1: attention on one guy or the other because the other

1126
00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:26,080
Speaker 1: guy will make you pay. And all you have to

1127
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:28,200
Speaker 1: do is look at their stats to prove that they

1128
00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:30,640
Speaker 1: each have seven touchdowns. So he say, okay, we've got

1129
00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:33,480
Speaker 1: to have a plan for that. Then the next thing

1130
00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:36,120
Speaker 1: you say is, all right, what's our pass rush approach

1131
00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:41,200
Speaker 1: to Russell Wilson. We cannot leave escape lane is open,

1132
00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:43,439
Speaker 1: so we've got to compress the pocket and just kind

1133
00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:47,440
Speaker 1: of squeeze him, not you know, come in there, you know,

1134
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:49,760
Speaker 1: like a bat out of hell, and you know, then

1135
00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:52,080
Speaker 1: he steps to the side, you go flying past him

1136
00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:54,040
Speaker 1: and you're grasping in nothing but air, and then he's

1137
00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:56,200
Speaker 1: out on the edge. And then that's a problem because

1138
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:58,320
Speaker 1: now we can throw at forty yards down field or

1139
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:02,360
Speaker 1: run for twenty like what do you want? So I'm

1140
01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:05,840
Speaker 1: I'm expecting them to be very disciplined in their rush

1141
01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:08,560
Speaker 1: lanes and not leave gaps there and just try to

1142
01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:12,200
Speaker 1: squeeze the pocket down, hopefully quickly enough before he's getting

1143
01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:14,840
Speaker 1: rid of the football to help the guys on the

1144
01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:16,800
Speaker 1: back end. But they're gonna have to dial up some blitz.

1145
01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:19,120
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to mix it up. And I know

1146
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:23,560
Speaker 1: you're playing with fire, but you gotta try something to

1147
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:27,000
Speaker 1: get him off of his rhythm, his schedule, his internal clock,

1148
01:00:27,520 --> 01:00:29,920
Speaker 1: to kind of screw up the efficiency of this passing game,

1149
01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:32,240
Speaker 1: because what is he He's like seventy one and a

1150
01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:37,880
Speaker 1: half percent completion pascilating. You gotta do something about that.

1151
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 1: So we're talking about how the offense has to be

1152
01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:42,600
Speaker 1: aggressive in this game. I think they're gonna have to

1153
01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:46,040
Speaker 1: pick their spots to be aggressive against Russell Wilson because

1154
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:48,800
Speaker 1: you can't sit back against him all day. He's gonna

1155
01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:50,440
Speaker 1: just cut you up. It's gonna be death by a

1156
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:54,160
Speaker 1: thousand cuts if you you know, play soft defense. I

1157
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:56,160
Speaker 1: think there's gonna they're gonna have to pick their spots

1158
01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:58,640
Speaker 1: on when they're gonna need to be aggressive otherwise I

1159
01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:01,560
Speaker 1: think it could be a long day. I don't think

1160
01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna be like twenty twelve, But man, I hope

1161
01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:06,840
Speaker 1: that there's a lot of things to watch out for

1162
01:01:06,960 --> 01:01:10,600
Speaker 1: because he is really, really, really good eight oh three

1163
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:12,640
Speaker 1: oh five fifty The number to get on board with

1164
01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 1: us one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty.

1165
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:19,160
Speaker 1: As we're asking what you're hoping to see on Sunday

1166
01:01:19,160 --> 01:01:22,440
Speaker 1: from this Bills team in terms of performance, I want

1167
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:24,520
Speaker 1: to get back to the tweet sheet here. You want

1168
01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:27,080
Speaker 1: to read this one from Tiffany Manny because she's always

1169
01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:29,439
Speaker 1: got good stuff to offer us. All right, Tiffany says

1170
01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:32,000
Speaker 1: to win Sunday, Josh and the offense has to go

1171
01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:34,600
Speaker 1: toe to toe with Wilson and company. They have to

1172
01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:36,800
Speaker 1: be able to put up twenty eight plus points to

1173
01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:40,080
Speaker 1: beat the Seahawks. It's an impossible task to contain such

1174
01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:43,520
Speaker 1: a high octane offense, so you have to match them

1175
01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:46,680
Speaker 1: on the scoreboard. And I think the Bills are going

1176
01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:49,000
Speaker 1: to have to score the most points they've scored all

1177
01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:52,120
Speaker 1: season if they want a shot at this one. Mattie,

1178
01:01:52,200 --> 01:01:54,720
Speaker 1: Steve and I were talking about this yesterday. I asked him,

1179
01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:57,880
Speaker 1: I said, Steve, we know that the Bills are going

1180
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:00,320
Speaker 1: to have to put up points this week because nobody

1181
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:02,800
Speaker 1: in the entire league that has played the Seahawks to

1182
01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:04,600
Speaker 1: this point this season has been able to hold them

1183
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,200
Speaker 1: down on the scoreboard. I mean, what is what's their

1184
01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:09,680
Speaker 1: lowest point total this year? Is it thirty? I don't

1185
01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:11,960
Speaker 1: even I think it's in the upper twenties. Yeah, I'm

1186
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:14,640
Speaker 1: gonna look right now, just real quick, just for argument's sake,

1187
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:17,440
Speaker 1: here or thirty eight, thirty five, thirty eight, thirty one,

1188
01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:20,960
Speaker 1: twenty seven against Minnesota they won by a point, and

1189
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,439
Speaker 1: then in a loss thirty four, and then thirty seven

1190
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:26,000
Speaker 1: last week against the beat up San fran team. So

1191
01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,720
Speaker 1: I was telling Steve because I said, Steve, what do

1192
01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:31,160
Speaker 1: you think the floor is? What's the minimum point total

1193
01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:33,000
Speaker 1: that the Bills have to get this week to have

1194
01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:35,160
Speaker 1: a chance to win the game. And he's like, I

1195
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:38,880
Speaker 1: don't know. I said, I think it's thirty. I think

1196
01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:41,360
Speaker 1: that's the floor. Like, you have to at least get

1197
01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:43,919
Speaker 1: to thirty, yep, to have a chance to win this week.

1198
01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:45,880
Speaker 1: Do you feel differently or you think that's probably where

1199
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:47,960
Speaker 1: they got up even a little? Are you going even

1200
01:02:47,960 --> 01:02:50,320
Speaker 1: a little higher? I think I would say, well, are

1201
01:02:50,320 --> 01:02:52,640
Speaker 1: you talking to just have a chance or two to

1202
01:02:52,760 --> 01:02:56,760
Speaker 1: ensure victor? Victor? Okay, I'm saying they have to score

1203
01:02:56,840 --> 01:03:00,360
Speaker 1: thirty five of thirty five? Okay, because yeah, you're you're

1204
01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:02,800
Speaker 1: just trying to stay just above their average just above

1205
01:03:02,880 --> 01:03:06,640
Speaker 1: their average. And I don't I think I believe in

1206
01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:09,400
Speaker 1: our defense. I do not think that they can hold

1207
01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:13,479
Speaker 1: this team to under like twenty points. No, No, I would,

1208
01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:17,840
Speaker 1: I'd be I'd be handing out medals if they do that. Yes, um,

1209
01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:21,920
Speaker 1: I was. I said, thirty is the floor to at

1210
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:24,400
Speaker 1: least give them a chance to win. If I want

1211
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,600
Speaker 1: to find that, I'm buying that. I want to feel

1212
01:03:26,640 --> 01:03:30,800
Speaker 1: good about them winning, like they've got a seventy five

1213
01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:33,320
Speaker 1: percent chance of winning. Yeah, I'm probably in your boat.

1214
01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:36,400
Speaker 1: With thirty five games, probably need a little bit more

1215
01:03:36,400 --> 01:03:39,280
Speaker 1: than thirty to ensure victory. I guess maybe when I

1216
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:42,560
Speaker 1: was setting the floor there, I was saying to myself, Okay,

1217
01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:46,320
Speaker 1: could they win with thirty. It's possible, but things have

1218
01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:48,840
Speaker 1: to happen on defense and special of the game if

1219
01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:51,520
Speaker 1: they If they win with thirty points, defense and special

1220
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:54,000
Speaker 1: teams would have to do something big. One or the

1221
01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:57,600
Speaker 1: other would have to do something big for thirty for

1222
01:03:57,720 --> 01:04:01,160
Speaker 1: thirty to work and feel good about. Because, as we

1223
01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:03,960
Speaker 1: just said, there's there's one game they scored under thirty

1224
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:08,600
Speaker 1: and it was twenty seven. So yeah, thirty's the floor

1225
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:12,320
Speaker 1: for a maybe win thirty five you feel pretty good

1226
01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:16,760
Speaker 1: about a win. Forty you're like, we're good, We're good,

1227
01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:20,880
Speaker 1: Like that's kind of Those are the varying degrees of

1228
01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:23,320
Speaker 1: what we're dealing with this week. It really is because

1229
01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:26,760
Speaker 1: nobody has been able to stop them, let alone slow

1230
01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:31,840
Speaker 1: them down. Like we said, even the Arizona Cardinals with

1231
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:37,400
Speaker 1: three takeaways, three interceptions of Russell Wilson still had to

1232
01:04:37,440 --> 01:04:40,080
Speaker 1: go to overtime to beat them, and they only won

1233
01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:42,560
Speaker 1: by three, you know, and and still gave up thirty

1234
01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 1: four points. I mean, that's that's the juggernaut of an

1235
01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:48,840
Speaker 1: offense that you're dealing with this week. Eight oh three

1236
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,680
Speaker 1: oh five fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two

1237
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:53,600
Speaker 1: five fifty to get on board with us, But we

1238
01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:56,400
Speaker 1: are making our way through the tweet sheet here, which

1239
01:04:56,480 --> 01:04:58,680
Speaker 1: is brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official

1240
01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:00,920
Speaker 1: equipment moving company of the buffal Bills. From Nick t

1241
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:07,080
Speaker 1: he says, asking our d to control Seattle is not

1242
01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:10,840
Speaker 1: going to work. Seattle will get their points. So I

1243
01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 1: think we should redo strategy like we did against the Chiefs.

1244
01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:18,040
Speaker 1: Don't allow big plays, make them nickel and dime their

1245
01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:20,800
Speaker 1: way down the field. If our offense can produce like

1246
01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:23,560
Speaker 1: they did earlier this year, we'll have a shot. I

1247
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:28,800
Speaker 1: think that's a fair assessment. It's fair like, hey, look, guys,

1248
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:32,320
Speaker 1: we love you on defense, but these guys are killing people.

1249
01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:37,720
Speaker 1: They are putting points up like you know, they're out

1250
01:05:37,760 --> 01:05:41,480
Speaker 1: for a walk in the park. And that's even against Well,

1251
01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:45,520
Speaker 1: let's see how many great defenses have they really played

1252
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:47,280
Speaker 1: this season. Let's just think about this for a second,

1253
01:05:47,280 --> 01:05:49,440
Speaker 1: because you're saying, oh my gosh, they scored thirty points

1254
01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:53,480
Speaker 1: every week. It's not a big deal. So Atlanta horrible defense,

1255
01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:56,720
Speaker 1: New England not the same defense they were a year ago.

1256
01:05:57,640 --> 01:06:01,800
Speaker 1: Dallas worst defense in the league, so bad at Miami.

1257
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:04,680
Speaker 1: Miami's a better defense in the last couple of weeks.

1258
01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:06,720
Speaker 1: I don't know if they were then when they Yeah,

1259
01:06:06,800 --> 01:06:09,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if they worked. Yeah, And hey, let's

1260
01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 1: be clear, I don't want to take anything away from Miami,

1261
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:13,840
Speaker 1: but they got to shut out the Jets. So anytime

1262
01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:15,480
Speaker 1: you put a goose egg up in a given week,

1263
01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:19,000
Speaker 1: your average is going to drop a ton in terms

1264
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:20,960
Speaker 1: of points allowed. So that twenty four nothing win is

1265
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:23,120
Speaker 1: what's help in Miami right now more than anything else.

1266
01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:25,640
Speaker 1: But they are an improving defense. I will say that

1267
01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:30,120
Speaker 1: Minnesota gave up the fewest points to them, and they

1268
01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:34,840
Speaker 1: are the twenty Minnesota's defense is not that great this year.

1269
01:06:35,080 --> 01:06:39,840
Speaker 1: Arizona is twenty second. Okay, So here are the defenses

1270
01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:42,040
Speaker 1: they've played total, all right, So this is where they

1271
01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:47,280
Speaker 1: rank in total defense. Okay, their opponents twentieth fourteenth, that's

1272
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:52,160
Speaker 1: New England, twenty second, twenty eighth, twenty fourth, twenty ninth,

1273
01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:55,320
Speaker 1: and sixth last week. The San Francisco defense, which is

1274
01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:57,840
Speaker 1: a shell of its former self with all the injuries

1275
01:06:57,880 --> 01:07:01,480
Speaker 1: that they have, so realistically, they have not played any

1276
01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:06,320
Speaker 1: great defenses. The fourteenth ranked defense of the Patriots and

1277
01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:09,560
Speaker 1: the sixth ranked defense of the forty nine ers. Now

1278
01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:11,880
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers are tenth in points allowed, the

1279
01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:15,520
Speaker 1: Patriots are twelfth in points allowed, Arizona is a surprising

1280
01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:19,280
Speaker 1: ninth in points allowed, and Miami is first in points allowed.

1281
01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:21,959
Speaker 1: After that shutout of the Jets a couple of weeks ago,

1282
01:07:22,600 --> 01:07:26,640
Speaker 1: the Bills are sixteenth in total defense, yea fourteenth in

1283
01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:31,640
Speaker 1: points allowed. Can they hold them under thirty? I think

1284
01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:34,880
Speaker 1: that's the question this week. That's the task. Try to

1285
01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:37,959
Speaker 1: get takeaways and try to hold them under thirty because

1286
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:41,800
Speaker 1: as We mentioned the Cardinals and three takeaways and they

1287
01:07:41,840 --> 01:07:44,480
Speaker 1: still score thirty four. I think one thing that'll be

1288
01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:49,040
Speaker 1: really interesting this matchup from Bill's defense against Seahawks offense

1289
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:53,160
Speaker 1: is third down. We know the Bill's defense has struggled

1290
01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:57,640
Speaker 1: with third down defense. They rank thirtieth, allowing teams to

1291
01:07:57,640 --> 01:08:00,480
Speaker 1: convert fifty point six percent of the time. But the

1292
01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:05,160
Speaker 1: Seahawks offense is wearing twenty six, only converting third downs

1293
01:08:05,200 --> 01:08:07,560
Speaker 1: thirty nine point two percent of the time. Yeah, Steve

1294
01:08:07,640 --> 01:08:10,080
Speaker 1: and I were asking Warren Moon about that a little

1295
01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:12,320
Speaker 1: bit because it just seemed like a number that didn't fit.

1296
01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:15,040
Speaker 1: Only converting thirty nine percent of the time, and it's

1297
01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:17,080
Speaker 1: the highest scoring offense in the league. We're like, what's

1298
01:08:17,120 --> 01:08:21,280
Speaker 1: going on with that? And Warren Moon said, there's a

1299
01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:23,080
Speaker 1: lot of games, guys where they don't even get to

1300
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:25,839
Speaker 1: third down because they're getting first down on second wondering,

1301
01:08:26,040 --> 01:08:30,840
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, okay, well that doesn't help. So

1302
01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:36,920
Speaker 1: they just have such fantastic big playability with those two

1303
01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:40,400
Speaker 1: receivers outside, and then you know they've got respectable tight

1304
01:08:40,520 --> 01:08:43,519
Speaker 1: ends like Greg Olsen. I know he's a wily old veteran,

1305
01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:45,960
Speaker 1: but he can still make plays in the intermediate passing game.

1306
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:48,479
Speaker 1: He keeps you honest in the middle of the field.

1307
01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:51,639
Speaker 1: And then Will Disley, who I believe was their starter

1308
01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:55,200
Speaker 1: last year before Olson came in. He's not bad either.

1309
01:08:55,560 --> 01:08:58,320
Speaker 1: Like they're guys that can keep you on schedule down

1310
01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:00,519
Speaker 1: in distance wise, they can move the stick for you.

1311
01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:04,400
Speaker 1: And if you're gonna play cover two and roll over

1312
01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:06,920
Speaker 1: the top of those two outside guys, that's when those

1313
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:08,360
Speaker 1: guys in the middle of the field of kill you

1314
01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:10,960
Speaker 1: and the one on one matchups are going up the seam.

1315
01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:16,240
Speaker 1: So I think that's the conundrum that this Seahawks offense

1316
01:09:16,280 --> 01:09:19,280
Speaker 1: presents to every defense, not just the Bills defense. This week.

1317
01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:22,320
Speaker 1: It's gonna be tough, specifically the Bills defense. I mean,

1318
01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:24,280
Speaker 1: they could go to the tight end more in this

1319
01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:26,920
Speaker 1: game if our secondary is doing a great job of

1320
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:31,040
Speaker 1: holding down DK and Tyler. Because Matt Milano was not

1321
01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:34,320
Speaker 1: at practice today, he was not at practice yesterday. We

1322
01:09:34,400 --> 01:09:36,960
Speaker 1: don't know his status for the game, but it's not

1323
01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:39,519
Speaker 1: looking great right now. Who is the one player that

1324
01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:42,519
Speaker 1: can truly cover a tight end on this defense? It's

1325
01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:46,000
Speaker 1: Matt Milano. What defense has given up the most tight

1326
01:09:46,120 --> 01:09:49,080
Speaker 1: end yards in the league. The Buffalo Bills. You don't

1327
01:09:49,120 --> 01:09:51,760
Speaker 1: have Matt Milano, then there's an open hole in the

1328
01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:54,519
Speaker 1: defense right there that's really hard to repair for this game,

1329
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:56,640
Speaker 1: and that job, more often than not, when it's not

1330
01:09:56,720 --> 01:10:00,000
Speaker 1: Milano has usually fallen to Jordan Poyer. Sometimes they've mixed

1331
01:10:00,240 --> 01:10:02,200
Speaker 1: Dean Marlow to get on a tight end at times

1332
01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:05,880
Speaker 1: based on personnel grouping. So you know, and I like

1333
01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:08,320
Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer a lot, and I think he's probably your

1334
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:12,559
Speaker 1: next best option. He really is after Milano. But we're

1335
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:15,160
Speaker 1: talking about size guys here. Now. The good thing is

1336
01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:17,080
Speaker 1: Olson doesn't run as well as he used to, so

1337
01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:20,280
Speaker 1: maybe that helps with that matchup. But Disley is a

1338
01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:24,080
Speaker 1: big player too who just outreaches defenders for the football

1339
01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:28,400
Speaker 1: because of his size. So it's gonna be interesting. And

1340
01:10:28,479 --> 01:10:29,880
Speaker 1: you have to believe that the Bills are going to

1341
01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:31,559
Speaker 1: try to take away the big play element on the

1342
01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:36,040
Speaker 1: outside with those two players, And does that mean they

1343
01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:39,400
Speaker 1: give up stuff inside with the tight ends? You may

1344
01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:41,800
Speaker 1: that might be the poison you choose to pick this week,

1345
01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:46,320
Speaker 1: because it's it's less dangerous than the other thing, which

1346
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:48,840
Speaker 1: is those guys chuck, you know, Russell Wilson chucking a

1347
01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:51,280
Speaker 1: ball over your head and those guys going for sixty

1348
01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:53,840
Speaker 1: yard touchdowns, I think I'd take the guy that I

1349
01:10:53,840 --> 01:10:55,920
Speaker 1: can keep in front of me and hope to live

1350
01:10:55,960 --> 01:10:59,800
Speaker 1: for another play. But that's why they have been as

1351
01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:01,760
Speaker 1: it as they have been. And the other thing that's

1352
01:11:01,760 --> 01:11:06,040
Speaker 1: impressive about them, Maddie, is the way they convert in

1353
01:11:06,120 --> 01:11:12,760
Speaker 1: the red zone. Eighty eight labor is absolutely insane. It

1354
01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:15,599
Speaker 1: leads the league by a pretty wide margin. I think

1355
01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:17,759
Speaker 1: the next closest team is like five or ten percent

1356
01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:21,160
Speaker 1: behind them in terms of touchdown percentage they get inside

1357
01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:23,479
Speaker 1: the twenty, you can almost take it to the bank.

1358
01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:27,880
Speaker 1: Twenty two out of their twenty five red zone possessions

1359
01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:32,040
Speaker 1: have resulted in touchdowns. The other three have resulted in

1360
01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:35,320
Speaker 1: either a missfield goal or a turnover, so they've gone

1361
01:11:35,320 --> 01:11:37,280
Speaker 1: over on the other three not even a field goal.

1362
01:11:38,240 --> 01:11:40,120
Speaker 1: But on twenty two of their twenty five red zone

1363
01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:42,760
Speaker 1: possessions they have punched it into the end zone. It's

1364
01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:45,680
Speaker 1: just such a high rate of efficiency and helps to

1365
01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:49,439
Speaker 1: explain why this team almost never trails in a football game.

1366
01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:53,519
Speaker 1: They're always ahead. And that is such a benefit too

1367
01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:56,559
Speaker 1: from a play calling perspective on offense and from a

1368
01:11:56,560 --> 01:11:59,040
Speaker 1: play calling perspective on defense, because if your team always

1369
01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:01,519
Speaker 1: has the lead, now you can be a little more

1370
01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:05,519
Speaker 1: aggressive on defense and call up a couple of more blitzes.

1371
01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,600
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what they did in the San Francisco

1372
01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:12,240
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers game last week. They blitzed on almost

1373
01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:14,479
Speaker 1: forty five percent of their plays on defense. It was

1374
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:17,280
Speaker 1: their highest blitz percentage game of the season. You mentioned

1375
01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:20,639
Speaker 1: it earlier, they're only about thirty seven percent. They upped

1376
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:23,880
Speaker 1: it almost ten percent last week. And they knocked Garoppolo

1377
01:12:23,880 --> 01:12:25,880
Speaker 1: out of the game. They had him reaggravate his high

1378
01:12:25,880 --> 01:12:28,080
Speaker 1: ankle sprain. He might be lost for the rest of

1379
01:12:28,120 --> 01:12:29,920
Speaker 1: the season. Now they got Nick Mullins in there and

1380
01:12:29,960 --> 01:12:33,200
Speaker 1: he's got a play tonight. But they upped the blitz percentage. Now,

1381
01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:35,680
Speaker 1: I don't think they do that against Josh because he's

1382
01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:41,080
Speaker 1: too elusive. But with Jamal Adams in the lineup in

1383
01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:43,640
Speaker 1: Carlos Dunlap, you would expect their pass rush to be

1384
01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,559
Speaker 1: more effective this week. All right, we have to take

1385
01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:48,920
Speaker 1: a break, but when we come back, it is that

1386
01:12:49,120 --> 01:12:51,920
Speaker 1: favorite game that you've all come to know and love.

1387
01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:56,400
Speaker 1: Dolphan Jets fan, Pats fan. We'll see if you the caller,

1388
01:12:56,600 --> 01:13:01,760
Speaker 1: the listener can guess which one we are describing with

1389
01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:03,759
Speaker 1: the tweet that we give to you. There's a Cody

1390

01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:08,920
Speaker 1: get on board, and we'll have that for you when

01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:11,679

1395
01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:31,840
Speaker 1: a date with the dentist today. Best to luck to him.

1396
01:13:31,880 --> 01:13:34,439
Speaker 1: But it is that time in the show where I

1397
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:38,639
Speaker 1: turn into a game show host and Maddie's my obvious

1398
01:13:38,680 --> 01:13:42,040
Speaker 1: assistant here as we make our way through what we

1399
01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:45,720
Speaker 1: like to call dolphan Jets fan or Pats fan, it

1400
01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:49,439
Speaker 1: is your job as the caller to guess the tweet

1401
01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:51,960
Speaker 1: that we read off to you, and you need to

1402
01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:56,679
Speaker 1: decide whether that sounds like a Doll fan, a Jets fan,

1403
01:13:57,080 --> 01:14:01,160
Speaker 1: or a Pats fan. Naturally, we don't have any love

1404
01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:03,759
Speaker 1: for any of the other teams in the AFC East,

1405
01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:09,879

01:14:16,680 --> 01:14:18,519
Speaker 1: guests as to whether you think it's a Dolphin, a

1433
01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:42,280
Speaker 1: how are you doing today? We're doing good? So Maddie

1435
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:51,919
Speaker 1: is the clue for you. I would be in favor

1436
01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:57,639
Speaker 1: of adding ten ted gin to our toolbox. This person

1437
01:15:57,720 --> 01:16:03,679
Speaker 1: has the arm to take advantage of his speed. So, Al,

1438
01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:08,400
Speaker 1: who do we think that is? I believe that might

1439
01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:14,280
Speaker 1: be Miami, Miami. So why do you think it's Miami? There? Al?

1440
01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:19,680
Speaker 1: Because you used to play there to his arm? You know,

1441
01:16:19,720 --> 01:16:22,519
Speaker 1: I know the They just traded a six round for

1442
01:16:22,560 --> 01:16:25,799
Speaker 1: a six round pick to New England. New England. Miami

1443
01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:28,680
Speaker 1: ships off one of their receivers to New England. So

1444
01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:31,640
Speaker 1: that's why I'm going with that. All right? So he

1445
01:16:31,640 --> 01:16:35,360
Speaker 1: guesses Dolphan, Maddie, what do we say? You are correct? A?

1446
01:16:35,520 --> 01:16:40,400
Speaker 1: Mundo ding Ding ding ding Ding. First guy out of

1447
01:16:40,439 --> 01:16:45,519
Speaker 1: the box. Congratulations, Al, you are correct with your answer.

1448
01:16:45,720 --> 01:16:48,600
Speaker 1: And man, we went through eight callers last week, but

1449
01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:51,240
Speaker 1: see this is This is a guy that stays up

1450
01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:54,719
Speaker 1: to date on the current events of the AFC East.

1451
01:16:54,760 --> 01:16:57,639
Speaker 1: He knew who they shipped off to New England, Isaiah Ford.

1452
01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:01,120
Speaker 1: He knew they had a wide receiver opening, and he

1453
01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:03,439
Speaker 1: kind of deciphered that, you know, they were talking about

1454
01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:05,439
Speaker 1: the arm of the quarterback to take advantage of Ted

1455
01:17:05,520 --> 01:17:08,679
Speaker 1: gains speed. He thought it was to a Taga Voloa

1456
01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:10,840
Speaker 1: and it was in fact, And that is from a

1457
01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:14,200
Speaker 1: Doll fan that put that tweet out just this past week.

1458
01:17:14,280 --> 01:17:17,720
Speaker 1: So congratulations, Al, hang on the line because they have

1459
01:17:17,760 --> 01:17:20,040
Speaker 1: some information that they need to get from you, including

1460
01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:22,840
Speaker 1: your shirt size, as you are the winner of the

1461
01:17:22,920 --> 01:17:27,600
Speaker 1: Cody Ford fanbox. Al, well done. I mean, Maddie, I

1462
01:17:27,600 --> 01:17:30,080
Speaker 1: gotta tell you, Steve and I last week, it's good

1463
01:17:30,120 --> 01:17:32,599
Speaker 1: to see that everybody's getting better at playing this game,

1464
01:17:33,439 --> 01:17:38,680
Speaker 1: because last week we were running out of close. I

1465
01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:43,040
Speaker 1: was getting nervous, Like we usually pull probably six to

1466
01:17:43,120 --> 01:17:46,639
Speaker 1: eight tweets, you know, from all of the three different

1467
01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:49,519
Speaker 1: fan bases for the other three teams in the division.

1468
01:17:50,120 --> 01:17:52,040
Speaker 1: You know a little from the Jets, a little from

1469
01:17:52,040 --> 01:17:56,120
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, a little from the Patriots, and I mean

1470
01:17:56,320 --> 01:17:58,679
Speaker 1: we're getting on the seventh or eighth clue. I'm looking

1471
01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:01,880
Speaker 1: at Steve going we got two clues left here? What

1472
01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:06,000
Speaker 1: if nobody gets it? Um? And some are easier than others, admittedly,

1473
01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:10,080
Speaker 1: but man, I was like, what we might have to

1474
01:18:10,120 --> 01:18:12,519
Speaker 1: take a break and go digging for more clues to

1475
01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:15,080
Speaker 1: get a winner. But fortunately somebody finally got it. I

1476
01:18:15,080 --> 01:18:18,760
Speaker 1: think it was the eighth clue last week. Um, and

1477
01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:22,320
Speaker 1: so we finally got our winner. But congratulations to Alan Clarence.

1478
01:18:22,360 --> 01:18:25,200
Speaker 1: He's our winner of the Cody Ford Fan Box this week.

1479
01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:29,640
Speaker 1: I'm sorry we couldn't get more contestants week. That's like

1480
01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:31,360
Speaker 1: the price is right and the guy on the big

1481
01:18:31,360 --> 01:18:33,719
Speaker 1: wheel just spinds a dollar right out of the box

1482
01:18:33,960 --> 01:18:36,920
Speaker 1: like nobody's topping him, and he's just he's in the

1483
01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:39,439
Speaker 1: showcase showdown, like right out of the gate. Like that

1484
01:18:39,520 --> 01:18:41,519
Speaker 1: was I mean, it's great that we got a winner

1485
01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:43,360
Speaker 1: right away, but I mean we had four other people

1486
01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:45,439
Speaker 1: on hold of like son of a nutcracker, man I

1487
01:18:45,479 --> 01:18:48,320
Speaker 1: wanted to play. Sorry, um, but yeah, we only had

1488
01:18:48,360 --> 01:18:51,080
Speaker 1: one fan box a week. But tune in next week

1489
01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:53,880
Speaker 1: if you didn't get a chance to participate this time.

1490
01:18:54,720 --> 01:18:58,000
Speaker 1: In what do we call There's Jets fan Pats fan, Dolphan,

1491
01:18:58,040 --> 01:19:00,200
Speaker 1: I always forget which team to to mention for. We

1492
01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:02,840
Speaker 1: try to go alphabetical order, Doll fan, Jets fan, Pats fan,

1493
01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:05,679
Speaker 1: and I can never forget who's first, remember who's first,

1494
01:19:05,880 --> 01:19:07,559
Speaker 1: So I even have a trouble mentioning what the heck

1495
01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:10,160
Speaker 1: the name of the dang contest is. But we will

1496
01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:12,479
Speaker 1: play it next week as well, because I mean it's

1497
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:14,280
Speaker 1: a fun game. We're trying to figure out, you know,

1498
01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:17,479
Speaker 1: what the other teams in the division are thinking, where

1499
01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:20,880
Speaker 1: their heads are at. You can imagine where the Jets heads.

1500
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:23,960
Speaker 1: Jets heads are at right now. I mean they are

1501
01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:26,600
Speaker 1: swearing up and down. There's a lot of There were

1502
01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:28,360
Speaker 1: a lot of tweets out there from Jets fans where

1503
01:19:28,360 --> 01:19:33,120
Speaker 1: he could not use for obvious reasons. Some of the

1504
01:19:33,160 --> 01:19:35,120
Speaker 1: ones that were pretty funny were I mean they were

1505
01:19:35,160 --> 01:19:37,719
Speaker 1: bad mouth and the GM bad mouth and the coach,

1506
01:19:39,439 --> 01:19:44,080
Speaker 1: and then the Patriots fans. This was interesting because Jay Harris,

1507
01:19:44,080 --> 01:19:46,680
Speaker 1: our producer, was collecting a good number of these this

1508
01:19:46,800 --> 01:19:51,280
Speaker 1: week for us for the show, and he said, man,

1509
01:19:51,600 --> 01:19:56,000
Speaker 1: you wouldn't believe he goes. The Patriots fans were more

1510
01:19:56,040 --> 01:20:00,120
Speaker 1: concerned about the presidential election this week then they were

1511
01:20:00,160 --> 01:20:04,160
Speaker 1: about the team. It's like they've they've tossed the team overboard, like, well,

1512
01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:06,800
Speaker 1: forget it, the Patriots aren't going anywhere, let's focus on

1513
01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:10,439
Speaker 1: the election. But they're still hashtagging it with go Pats,

1514
01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:13,719
Speaker 1: like because go Pats is like one of the popular

1515
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:15,439
Speaker 1: hashtags for the Patriots, just like you know, we have

1516
01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:18,200
Speaker 1: go Bills and Bills Mafia for our hashtags on Twitter,

1517
01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:22,640
Speaker 1: so they have go Pats. Well, they're doing political opinions

1518
01:20:22,680 --> 01:20:26,360
Speaker 1: out there on Twitter and they're still hashtagging it go Pats,

1519
01:20:26,439 --> 01:20:28,920
Speaker 1: And it's like, what are they doing up there in

1520
01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:31,400
Speaker 1: Massachusetts in New England. I couldn't figure it out. It

1521
01:20:31,479 --> 01:20:35,240
Speaker 1: was the most bizarre thing, Like it's straight politics, Like

1522
01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 1: there is nothing about the Patriots in there whatsoever outside

1523
01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:41,840
Speaker 1: of a couple of people that want Bill Belichick to

1524
01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:44,439
Speaker 1: run for president. And that's a whole other story that

1525
01:20:44,479 --> 01:20:47,559
Speaker 1: they were getting off on during the week. But I

1526
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:51,800
Speaker 1: don't know why you're attaching your football team hashtag to

1527
01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:55,559
Speaker 1: a political tweet like it just it was weird. We

1528
01:20:55,600 --> 01:20:57,280
Speaker 1: couldn't figure it out. We didn't know what was going

1529
01:20:57,320 --> 01:20:59,960
Speaker 1: on there because we were looking for football related one

1530
01:21:00,120 --> 01:21:03,800
Speaker 1: for obvious he couldn't find Snaria one. I mean we

1531
01:21:03,800 --> 01:21:05,720
Speaker 1: were plowing through it. I think Jay only came up

1532
01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:08,519
Speaker 1: with two this week, so, I mean after all of

1533
01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:10,599
Speaker 1: that searching, So it was it was a little bit

1534
01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:13,439
Speaker 1: of a hurdle to clear this week to get enough

1535
01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:16,400
Speaker 1: clues here for the contest. But we're glad Alan Clarence

1536
01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:19,840
Speaker 1: was our winner this week. Congrats to him. And uh,

1537
01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:22,760
Speaker 1: you know, we'll have another fanbox next week in the

1538
01:21:22,760 --> 01:21:26,240
Speaker 1: next edition of Doll Fan, Pats Fan, Jets Fan. I'm

1539
01:21:26,280 --> 01:21:30,040
Speaker 1: still calling itself something different. Um, we have a little

1540
01:21:30,040 --> 01:21:32,200
Speaker 1: bit of time here, Maddie. Do you have any interest

1541
01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:35,280
Speaker 1: in doing a little bit of What's for Lunch? Yeah,

1542
01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:37,200
Speaker 1: let's into it. We haven't done What's for Lunch in

1543
01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:39,160
Speaker 1: a while. We did it earlier in the week with Steve,

1544
01:21:39,200 --> 01:21:40,840
Speaker 1: and Steve's like, man, we haven't done this in a

1545
01:21:40,880 --> 01:21:42,519
Speaker 1: long time. It was a lot of fun. So we're

1546
01:21:42,560 --> 01:21:45,840
Speaker 1: gonna do some What's for Lunch now, and uh, we're

1547
01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:50,040
Speaker 1: gonna begin, Maddie with this menu item has Jimmy Garoppolo

1548
01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:54,040
Speaker 1: taking his last snaps with the forty nine ers. Now,

1549
01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:56,040
Speaker 1: as we know, he had the high ankle sprain this week.

1550
01:21:56,040 --> 01:21:58,400
Speaker 1: Guess he could miss the rest of the regular season.

1551
01:21:58,760 --> 01:22:00,680
Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember if there's an option here on

1552
01:22:00,720 --> 01:22:02,519
Speaker 1: his contracy. Yeah, that's what I'm trying to think about

1553
01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:05,759
Speaker 1: right now too. I will look that up while you contemplate. Okay,

1554
01:22:05,840 --> 01:22:10,759
Speaker 1: whether you think Jimmy Garoppolo has played his last snap

1555
01:22:10,880 --> 01:22:13,960
Speaker 1: for the San Francisco forty nine ers after suffering a

1556
01:22:14,040 --> 01:22:16,720
Speaker 1: high ankle sprain last week, I'm gonna say no. I

1557
01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:21,160
Speaker 1: think this team has been so successful as of late

1558
01:22:21,320 --> 01:22:26,519
Speaker 1: underneath him. I know they have been injury written all

1559
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:29,719
Speaker 1: season and have it the worst out of any team

1560
01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:32,799
Speaker 1: in the NFL with injuries this season, and it doesn't

1561
01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:35,120
Speaker 1: seem like it's getting any better for them, as they're

1562
01:22:35,160 --> 01:22:38,599
Speaker 1: having really good players added to the COVID list this week.

1563
01:22:39,320 --> 01:22:42,000
Speaker 1: But I still think Jimmy ge gets shot with the

1564
01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:44,639
Speaker 1: forty nine ers after this season. If he doesn't come

1565
01:22:44,640 --> 01:22:47,519
Speaker 1: back this year, I think he gets another shot next year.

1566
01:22:47,560 --> 01:22:50,240
Speaker 1: Hopefully he's healthy enough to come back later this year.

1567
01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:54,080
Speaker 1: But we'll have to see. Yeah, it's probably. I think

1568
01:22:54,080 --> 01:22:56,519
Speaker 1: you're right, and here's why, because the numbers are saying

1569
01:22:56,560 --> 01:22:59,759
Speaker 1: something here. If they cut him in the off season,

1570
01:23:00,439 --> 01:23:06,000
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty offseason, I believe it's a nineteen million

1571
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:08,840
Speaker 1: dollar cap hit if I have this right, I'm looking

1572
01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:13,320
Speaker 1: at over thecap dot com next year however, so they

1573
01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:16,120
Speaker 1: might go into the year with him next year and

1574
01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:19,600
Speaker 1: he's making twenty four million, which is actually relatively affordable

1575
01:23:19,960 --> 01:23:24,240
Speaker 1: for quarterbacks these days. But the cap hit next year

1576
01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:30,080
Speaker 1: is only two point eight. So next year could be

1577
01:23:30,120 --> 01:23:33,439
Speaker 1: the year that Jimmy's looking for another team. How crazy

1578
01:23:33,479 --> 01:23:35,320
Speaker 1: would it be if he goes back to New England?

1579
01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:40,080
Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be? Now that'd be crazy. They could be

1580
01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:42,719
Speaker 1: looking for a quarterback. They might be at that point

1581
01:23:42,760 --> 01:23:45,880
Speaker 1: in time. Okay, Uh yeah, I agree with you. I

1582
01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:47,720
Speaker 1: don't think that he's taken his last snaps there. I

1583
01:23:47,720 --> 01:23:50,639
Speaker 1: think they'll give it one more shot. Unless somebody falls

1584
01:23:50,680 --> 01:23:53,519
Speaker 1: out of a tree. That's significantly better that they can

1585
01:23:53,560 --> 01:23:55,679
Speaker 1: get for a song than maybe they change their mind

1586
01:23:56,479 --> 01:24:02,880
Speaker 1: bigger overreaction. NFL defenses have figured out Lamar Jackson or

1587
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:06,960
Speaker 1: twenty twenty Patrick Mahomes is better than twenty eighteen Patrick Mahomes.

1588
01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:11,599
Speaker 1: This one is tough. It is hard because we're talking

1589
01:24:11,640 --> 01:24:16,599
Speaker 1: about two guys that won the MVPs in the prior

1590
01:24:16,720 --> 01:24:20,360
Speaker 1: years that we're talking about. Because you know, Lamar Jackson

1591
01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:22,120
Speaker 1: won it last year and nobody could stop him, and

1592
01:24:22,200 --> 01:24:25,439
Speaker 1: now this year people are stopping him. And Patrick Mahomes

1593
01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:28,559
Speaker 1: won the MVP in twenty eighteen, and some people are

1594
01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:30,599
Speaker 1: saying the twenty twenty version of Patrick Mahomes is even

1595
01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:35,120
Speaker 1: better than that when he threw fifty touchdowns. M Okay,

1596
01:24:35,160 --> 01:24:37,719
Speaker 1: you answered this one first, I still need to think. Okay,

1597
01:24:37,760 --> 01:24:40,680
Speaker 1: so you contemplate this one. NFL defenses have figured out

1598
01:24:40,760 --> 01:24:45,439
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. I think that just like everything, you get

1599
01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:50,400
Speaker 1: this nouveau offensive system and it takes defensive coordinators in

1600
01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:52,719
Speaker 1: this league time to adjust to it figure out ways

1601
01:24:52,720 --> 01:24:56,000
Speaker 1: to defend it effectively. I think there's two things working

1602
01:24:56,000 --> 01:25:00,759
Speaker 1: against Lamar Jackson this season. Number One, they traded away

1603
01:25:00,800 --> 01:25:06,080
Speaker 1: tight end Hayden Hurst to Atlanta, and I don't think

1604
01:25:06,120 --> 01:25:11,240
Speaker 1: that offense functions the same way unless they have the

1605
01:25:11,320 --> 01:25:15,000
Speaker 1: three tight end package, and they took hayden Hurst out

1606
01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:17,760
Speaker 1: of it, and now they can't run it the same

1607
01:25:17,800 --> 01:25:21,439
Speaker 1: way they did in twenty nineteen, and I think that's

1608
01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:24,960
Speaker 1: why they're not as effective and as machine like as

1609
01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:29,479
Speaker 1: a running team because of that move. So that's number one,

1610
01:25:29,760 --> 01:25:33,679
Speaker 1: and then number two, I think teams have figured out

1611
01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:38,680
Speaker 1: that Lamar Jackson really struggles throwing the ball accurately outside

1612
01:25:38,680 --> 01:25:42,680
Speaker 1: the numbers. So what do they do. They cover up

1613
01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:47,360
Speaker 1: all the inside in breaking routes and forced Lamar Jackson

1614
01:25:47,400 --> 01:25:50,559
Speaker 1: to beat them with throws to the outside. And to

1615
01:25:50,600 --> 01:25:53,880
Speaker 1: this point he has not demonstrated enough of an ability

1616
01:25:54,439 --> 01:25:57,400
Speaker 1: to beat teams consistently by throwing outside. That was the

1617
01:25:57,400 --> 01:26:01,200
Speaker 1: Bills game plan last year against the Ravens. They they've said, hey,

1618
01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:02,920
Speaker 1: you want to throw outside the numbers, go for it.

1619
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:04,920
Speaker 1: Let me see you do it. We'll cover up all

1620
01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:06,760
Speaker 1: the stuff in between the numbers. And they did that

1621
01:26:07,040 --> 01:26:08,559
Speaker 1: and it was a close game. I mean they lost

1622
01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:11,880
Speaker 1: by a touchdown. It was twenty four seventeen, and Lamar

1623
01:26:11,920 --> 01:26:13,840
Speaker 1: had a couple of short rushing touchdowns in the game,

1624
01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:15,880
Speaker 1: and that's how they won. Because they've still leaned on

1625
01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:18,080
Speaker 1: that running game, which still had three tight ends. But

1626
01:26:18,160 --> 01:26:20,320
Speaker 1: I think those are some of the contributing factors as

1627
01:26:20,320 --> 01:26:25,760
Speaker 1: to why Baltimore rushing attack isn't as effective and they

1628
01:26:25,800 --> 01:26:28,680
Speaker 1: really have no passing game to speak of because they

1629
01:26:28,680 --> 01:26:31,280
Speaker 1: don't have those three tight ends flooding those interior zones.

1630
01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:34,120
Speaker 1: Mark Andrews is on my fantasy team and he hasn't

1631
01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:36,759
Speaker 1: been performing like I wanted him too. In the beginning

1632
01:26:36,800 --> 01:26:38,439
Speaker 1: of the season, it was great, but now it's like

1633
01:26:38,479 --> 01:26:40,280
Speaker 1: just a couple points a game. I'm like, what the hell?

1634
01:26:40,439 --> 01:26:44,280
Speaker 1: Why always their whole offense is struggling. This year's there's

1635
01:26:44,320 --> 01:26:46,639
Speaker 1: no question about it. Do you want to take a second, Yeah,

1636
01:26:46,680 --> 01:26:48,880
Speaker 1: I'm wanna say twenty twenty homes is better than the

1637
01:26:48,920 --> 01:26:51,880
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen version. Let's just let's just hold on a second.

1638
01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:53,720
Speaker 1: I know we're in week nine, but there's still a

1639
01:26:53,720 --> 01:26:56,599
Speaker 1: lot of season left to play. He is having a

1640
01:26:56,640 --> 01:27:00,679
Speaker 1: great season, but let's just hold off for for a second.

1641
01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:03,240
Speaker 1: You want to hit the pause button here, and yeah,

1642
01:27:03,360 --> 01:27:05,600
Speaker 1: make an assessment a little bit later. Yes, yeah, I

1643
01:27:05,600 --> 01:27:07,639
Speaker 1: mean I have to check. I don't even think he's

1644
01:27:07,680 --> 01:27:11,320
Speaker 1: on pace for fifty touchdown passes right now, because I

1645
01:27:11,320 --> 01:27:14,559
Speaker 1: don't think he has twenty five at the halfway point. No,

1646
01:27:14,680 --> 01:27:17,719
Speaker 1: he definitely doesn't, because I don't think anybody's near Russell Wilson.

1647
01:27:18,160 --> 01:27:21,320
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson has twenty six, and I don't think anybody's

1648
01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:23,720
Speaker 1: within four of him, so we can look it up.

1649
01:27:23,760 --> 01:27:25,760
Speaker 1: But I don't think he's on pace for fifty touchdowns,

1650
01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:28,360
Speaker 1: not that that's the end all beal right, But yeah,

1651
01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:31,559
Speaker 1: I think that breakout year is he may never hit

1652
01:27:31,560 --> 01:27:35,760
Speaker 1: fifty touchdowns again. It's it's hard to get to fifty touchdowns.

1653
01:27:36,160 --> 01:27:38,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I think he could probably count on one

1654
01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:40,559
Speaker 1: hand how many NFL quarterbacks have done that. I think

1655
01:27:40,600 --> 01:27:42,599
Speaker 1: Brady did it in the two thousand and seven season

1656
01:27:42,880 --> 01:27:46,479
Speaker 1: when they went undefeated in the regular season. Mahomes did it,

1657
01:27:47,160 --> 01:27:49,680
Speaker 1: and maybe a couple other guys. I can't think off

1658
01:27:49,680 --> 01:27:51,880
Speaker 1: the top of my head if Manning ever, Peyton Manning

1659
01:27:51,920 --> 01:27:53,479
Speaker 1: ever got there, or if Breezes ever got there. I

1660
01:27:53,520 --> 01:27:56,280
Speaker 1: know they've had five thousand yards seasons, but passing seasons

1661
01:27:57,840 --> 01:27:59,880
Speaker 1: twenty one, so he's a little off the pace second

1662
01:28:00,080 --> 01:28:03,200
Speaker 1: the league. Yeah, all right, that is what's for lunch,

1663
01:28:03,200 --> 01:28:04,960
Speaker 1: because we have to take a break here. But when

1664

Speaker 1: we come back, more of your comments on the tweet

1673
01:28:43,960 --> 01:28:47,280
Speaker 1: This week you have Autoglass Damage Trust. Safe Light Autoglass

1674
01:28:47,280 --> 01:28:52,520
Speaker 1: official auto glass repair and Replacement partner of the Buffalo Bills.

1675
01:28:52,520 --> 01:28:54,479
Speaker 1: Time for us to get back to the tweet sheet,

1676
01:28:54,760 --> 01:28:58,200
Speaker 1: as we wanted to get your thoughts on what you

1677
01:28:58,240 --> 01:29:00,960
Speaker 1: want to see the most in Sunday's game against the Seahawks,

1678
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:04,200
Speaker 1: whether it's a toe to toe offensive shootout, the defense

1679
01:29:04,400 --> 01:29:08,400
Speaker 1: slowing down Russell Wilson and company, or just win, baby,

1680
01:29:08,880 --> 01:29:12,559
Speaker 1: Just win. And we left off and we're up to

1681
01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:16,560
Speaker 1: Charlie on the tweet sheet, so tired of everyone complaining

1682
01:29:16,600 --> 01:29:21,200
Speaker 1: about not getting blowout victories. Just win, doesn't matter how

1683
01:29:21,240 --> 01:29:24,280
Speaker 1: a win is a win by one point or fifty points,

1684
01:29:24,400 --> 01:29:29,000
Speaker 1: all caps, exclamation point, Just win? Are you? Charlie did

1685
01:29:29,200 --> 01:29:31,400
Speaker 1: tweet in the break That's not me because then my

1686
01:29:31,479 --> 01:29:33,120
Speaker 1: name would be Charlie Brown and we'd have a whole

1687
01:29:33,200 --> 01:29:37,000
Speaker 1: other conversation to discuss with the peanuts and whatnot. But no,

1688
01:29:37,120 --> 01:29:40,360
Speaker 1: I'm I know where he's coming from, though, and I

1689
01:29:40,479 --> 01:29:43,400
Speaker 1: try to look big picture when I say this, because

1690
01:29:43,760 --> 01:29:45,120
Speaker 1: I know at the end of the season, if the

1691
01:29:45,160 --> 01:29:47,599
Speaker 1: Bills have won the division with a ten and six

1692
01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:51,320
Speaker 1: record or eleven at whatever it is, they win the division.

1693
01:29:51,960 --> 01:29:54,040
Speaker 1: And part of the reason why is because they beat

1694
01:29:54,080 --> 01:29:58,920
Speaker 1: the Seahawks in an ugly affair thirteen to ten. Nobody's

1695
01:29:58,920 --> 01:30:03,800
Speaker 1: gonna care that they only one thirteen to ten. Nobody not, well,

1696
01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:05,960
Speaker 1: not in January. They won't because they'll be like whoa

1697
01:30:06,360 --> 01:30:10,919
Speaker 1: playoff game? Playoff games doesn't matter. Yeah, So I understand

1698
01:30:10,920 --> 01:30:13,720
Speaker 1: where Charlie's coming from. I'm just looking for the w's here.

1699
01:30:13,760 --> 01:30:15,599
Speaker 1: I don't care how pretty or ugly they are. Just

1700
01:30:15,720 --> 01:30:19,439
Speaker 1: get them. Yep. Um you want to read Andrew So

1701
01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:21,920
Speaker 1: Andrews says the only way the Bills win is if

1702
01:30:22,160 --> 01:30:25,280
Speaker 1: the offense goes toe to toe with Russell Wilson. Wilson

1703
01:30:25,400 --> 01:30:29,960
Speaker 1: is going to cook. It's time to hashtag. Let Josh cook.

1704
01:30:30,080 --> 01:30:32,679
Speaker 1: Oh a new Twitter handle? Okay, so they've got they've

1705
01:30:32,720 --> 01:30:35,240
Speaker 1: got a thing in a seattle. They say a lot

1706
01:30:35,320 --> 01:30:39,040
Speaker 1: Russ cook, right, So let Josh cook. I would love

1707
01:30:39,040 --> 01:30:42,320
Speaker 1: to let Josh cook. This is the other major prevailing opinion.

1708
01:30:42,360 --> 01:30:45,760
Speaker 1: There doesn't seem to be anybody in the Bills fan

1709
01:30:45,840 --> 01:30:50,200
Speaker 1: base that trusts the defense enough to believe that they

1710
01:30:50,240 --> 01:30:53,840
Speaker 1: could come up with a performance to truly slow down

1711
01:30:54,760 --> 01:30:57,160
Speaker 1: this Seahawks offense. And I don't think it's only rooted

1712
01:30:57,160 --> 01:30:59,799
Speaker 1: in maybe their lack of trust in the Bills defense.

1713
01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:03,679
Speaker 1: The fact that over seven games, no other defense has

1714
01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:09,160
Speaker 1: stopped this Seahawks runaway train of an offense. So what

1715
01:31:09,520 --> 01:31:11,880
Speaker 1: are you left with if you don't think your defense

1716
01:31:11,920 --> 01:31:14,360
Speaker 1: can stop. All you're left with is I hope the

1717
01:31:14,400 --> 01:31:17,160
Speaker 1: offense can keep pace with those guys like you know,

1718
01:31:17,280 --> 01:31:20,320
Speaker 1: So the thought is, yeah, let's be aggressive, you know,

1719
01:31:20,400 --> 01:31:23,360
Speaker 1: let's go toe to toe and hope it's enough. And

1720
01:31:23,439 --> 01:31:26,120
Speaker 1: we talked about that earlier in the hour. Maddie like,

1721
01:31:27,360 --> 01:31:31,280
Speaker 1: thirty you feel kind of good, thirty five you feel

1722
01:31:31,840 --> 01:31:33,960
Speaker 1: we got a chance to win. Forty You're like, we

1723
01:31:34,040 --> 01:31:37,839
Speaker 1: put up forty, we're gonna win the game. But that's

1724
01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:42,320
Speaker 1: the range we're probably talking about this week, because this

1725
01:31:42,400 --> 01:31:48,240
Speaker 1: Seattle team is they are something from Adam. Just give

1726
01:31:48,280 --> 01:31:51,479
Speaker 1: me the win. It's the only stat that counts. Though,

1727
01:31:51,479 --> 01:31:53,680
Speaker 1: I'd love to see Josh and Stefan lighted up for

1728
01:31:53,760 --> 01:31:57,840
Speaker 1: my fantasy team selfish plug a win against Seattle would

1729
01:31:57,880 --> 01:32:00,519
Speaker 1: be a huge confidence boost, no matter what it looks like. Now,

1730
01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:05,080
Speaker 1: that's the other part of this conversation, Maddie. If they

1731
01:32:05,120 --> 01:32:10,799
Speaker 1: win on Sunday, what does it mean for this team?

1732
01:32:10,920 --> 01:32:13,479
Speaker 1: You got a confidence boost because you finally vanquish your demons.

1733
01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:16,439
Speaker 1: Last week against the Patriots wasn't pretty, but you got

1734
01:32:16,439 --> 01:32:21,360
Speaker 1: the win. You beat the Seahawks team this week. Where

1735
01:32:21,360 --> 01:32:24,200
Speaker 1: does the confidence level go with this football team. I'm

1736
01:32:24,200 --> 01:32:27,439
Speaker 1: looking at the schedule and who this team the Bills

1737
01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:30,480
Speaker 1: have beat this season. I think they got a confidence

1738
01:32:30,520 --> 01:32:32,840
Speaker 1: boost when they beat the Rams. I think with the

1739
01:32:32,920 --> 01:32:36,080
Speaker 1: Raiders too, and I think that confidence went down when

1740
01:32:36,080 --> 01:32:38,799
Speaker 1: you lose to the Titans and you lose to the Chiefs.

1741
01:32:39,240 --> 01:32:41,320
Speaker 1: I think when fans and all of us were looking

1742
01:32:41,320 --> 01:32:44,400
Speaker 1: at the schedule and seeing that four week stretch of

1743
01:32:44,439 --> 01:32:47,720
Speaker 1: the Rams, the Raiders, the Titans, the Chiefs, I think

1744
01:32:47,720 --> 01:32:49,519
Speaker 1: some people are like, Oh, yeah, if we can go

1745
01:32:49,560 --> 01:32:52,720
Speaker 1: two and two, or if we can just pick up

1746
01:32:52,720 --> 01:32:55,120
Speaker 1: a couple wins. I was thinking that this team could

1747
01:32:55,160 --> 01:32:58,960
Speaker 1: honestly go three and one in that stretch. I'm disappointed

1748
01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:01,800
Speaker 1: that they weren't able to beat the Titans or beat

1749
01:33:01,800 --> 01:33:04,000
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. We all knew the Chiefs would be really hard.

1750
01:33:04,080 --> 01:33:07,080
Speaker 1: I was kind of thinking the Titans win could happen. Yeah,

1751
01:33:07,120 --> 01:33:09,040
Speaker 1: but they did it last year down there, they did

1752
01:33:09,080 --> 01:33:13,280
Speaker 1: it last year. Yeah, this was their third year playing

1753
01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:15,880
Speaker 1: this team in a row. You think they've have a

1754
01:33:15,960 --> 01:33:19,680
Speaker 1: really good feel on what this Titans team can do.

1755
01:33:19,800 --> 01:33:22,439
Speaker 1: I know, Ryan Tannehill's pretty much come out of nowhere,

1756
01:33:22,920 --> 01:33:26,400
Speaker 1: and Derrick Henry has had a really great second half

1757
01:33:26,439 --> 01:33:29,639
Speaker 1: of the season last year continues too. But your confidence

1758
01:33:29,720 --> 01:33:33,559
Speaker 1: drops a little bit. You get a win against the Jets.

1759
01:33:34,000 --> 01:33:36,479
Speaker 1: I don't think the team picks up any confidence from that.

1760
01:33:36,640 --> 01:33:39,160
Speaker 1: You know, you just scoop by in that game. You're like,

1761
01:33:39,240 --> 01:33:42,040
Speaker 1: thank god, we didn't lose. We had to rely on

1762
01:33:42,080 --> 01:33:45,360
Speaker 1: our special teams. Good on Tyler Bass for being able

1763
01:33:45,439 --> 01:33:48,080
Speaker 1: to help us seal the deal. You get you get

1764
01:33:48,120 --> 01:33:50,920
Speaker 1: some confidence from Patriots, but man, I think you beat

1765
01:33:50,960 --> 01:33:54,120
Speaker 1: the Seahawks, that can take you into the entire second

1766
01:33:54,160 --> 01:33:56,720
Speaker 1: half of the season, which, Hey, we're coming up on

1767
01:33:56,760 --> 01:34:00,880
Speaker 1: another tough five game stretching. This is the toughest stretch

1768
01:34:00,920 --> 01:34:03,240
Speaker 1: of the whole season. I mean, the chief stretch was tough,

1769
01:34:03,320 --> 01:34:07,000
Speaker 1: but man, I mean San Francisco looks a little different

1770
01:34:07,040 --> 01:34:09,519
Speaker 1: now because of all their injuries and now this COVID

1771
01:34:09,560 --> 01:34:11,720
Speaker 1: thing that they're dealing with, and their quarterbacks probably out

1772
01:34:11,720 --> 01:34:13,720
Speaker 1: for the year. George Kittle's probably out for the year.

1773
01:34:13,800 --> 01:34:18,080
Speaker 1: Maybe not, but they're a mess. They're like a they're

1774
01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:21,040
Speaker 1: a mash unit right now. They're in terrible shape healthwise,

1775
01:34:21,200 --> 01:34:23,599
Speaker 1: So they're not nearly the team that were. And maybe

1776
01:34:23,600 --> 01:34:25,679
Speaker 1: it's different in a month because it's that game still

1777
01:34:25,680 --> 01:34:28,840
Speaker 1: a month away, but they look like a completely different team.

1778
01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:30,600
Speaker 1: But so did the Chargers all of a sudden, the

1779
01:34:30,640 --> 01:34:34,720
Speaker 1: Chargers scoring thirty points a week with Herbert, So that

1780
01:34:34,760 --> 01:34:36,200
Speaker 1: game looks a lot different than it did at the

1781
01:34:36,240 --> 01:34:38,200
Speaker 1: beginning of the season when some people were wondering, oh,

1782
01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:41,639
Speaker 1: maybe it's Tyrod Taylor or whatever. But yeah, I think

1783
01:34:41,680 --> 01:34:43,960
Speaker 1: you win this game. I think you get a huge

1784
01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:47,439
Speaker 1: confidence boost and maybe you carry that momentum on the

1785
01:34:47,520 --> 01:34:49,519
Speaker 1: road with you into that Arizona game where you're going

1786
01:34:49,560 --> 01:34:51,679
Speaker 1: to have to put up points too, with what Kyler

1787
01:34:51,720 --> 01:34:53,880
Speaker 1: Murray and that offense is doing. All right, we have

1788
01:34:53,920 --> 01:34:56,920
Speaker 1: to take a break, but when we return, we get

1789
01:34:56,960 --> 01:35:01,200
Speaker 1: an inside look at the Seattle Seahawks, and we're gonna

1790
01:35:01,240 --> 01:35:03,080
Speaker 1: focus a little bit more on the defensive side of

1791
01:35:03,080 --> 01:35:05,280
Speaker 1: the ball. We've been pounding their offense and now impressive

1792
01:35:05,320 --> 01:35:08,160
Speaker 1: it is. But we're gonna talk with former Seahawks linebacker

1793
01:35:08,439 --> 01:35:13,120
Speaker 1: Lofa Tatupu. It's just fun to say his name. He'll

1794
01:35:13,160 --> 01:35:15,760
Speaker 1: be on next after the break. When we return here

1795
01:35:15,800 --> 01:35:18,639
Speaker 1: on One Bill's Live, presented by Kalida Health, It's Buffalo

1796
01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:33,479
Speaker 1: Bill's Radio. Hello, Bill's Radio Network. Sports Date your sports

1797
01:35:33,560 --> 01:35:36,320
Speaker 1: update from One Bill's Drive. First, the good news on

1798
01:35:36,360 --> 01:35:39,880
Speaker 1: the injury front, as tight end Dawson Knox is practicing

1799
01:35:39,920 --> 01:35:43,840
Speaker 1: today and has been removed from the reserve COVID nineteen lists,

1800
01:35:43,840 --> 01:35:46,719
Speaker 1: so all signs pointing to him being available for Sunday's

1801
01:35:46,720 --> 01:35:51,320
Speaker 1: game against the Seahawks. Not practicing today, Matt Milano, Darryl Johnson,

1802
01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:54,920
Speaker 1: Mitch Morris, Josh Norman, and Mario Addison. John Brown is

1803
01:35:54,960 --> 01:35:57,280
Speaker 1: back practicing, but we'll have to find out to what

1804
01:35:57,400 --> 01:36:02,120
Speaker 1: degree when the Thursday injury report is released later this afternoon.

1805
01:36:02,400 --> 01:36:05,320
Speaker 1: Seahawks safety Jamal Adams supposed to be full go in

1806
01:36:05,439 --> 01:36:09,000
Speaker 1: practice today after he was limited on Wednesday. He is

1807
01:36:09,040 --> 01:36:12,040
Speaker 1: expected to return to the Seattle lineup on Sunday against

1808
01:36:12,040 --> 01:36:14,479
Speaker 1: the Bills. A groin injury has kept him out since

1809
01:36:14,520 --> 01:36:18,280
Speaker 1: Week three. The Seahawks running back situation, however, is still

1810
01:36:18,320 --> 01:36:21,719
Speaker 1: a bit dicey. Chris Carson is not expected to practice

1811
01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:25,479
Speaker 1: until Friday with a foot injury, Carlos Hide, his backup,

1812
01:36:25,560 --> 01:36:28,400
Speaker 1: is dealing with a hamstring problem, and Travis Homer, the

1813
01:36:28,400 --> 01:36:30,880
Speaker 1: third string running back. All of them were held out

1814
01:36:30,920 --> 01:36:36,120
Speaker 1: of practice on Wednesday. Despite positive COVID nineteen tests for

1815
01:36:36,160 --> 01:36:38,880
Speaker 1: both the forty nine Ers and the Packers this week,

1816
01:36:38,920 --> 01:36:42,320
Speaker 1: the NFL is moving forward with their Thursday night football

1817
01:36:42,360 --> 01:36:45,880
Speaker 1: game tonight after there were no additional positive tests from

1818
01:36:45,920 --> 01:36:49,000
Speaker 1: Wednesday's round of testing. The forty nine Ers will be

1819
01:36:49,040 --> 01:36:53,040
Speaker 1: without receivers Kendrick Bourne, Brandon Ayuke, and Deebo Samuel, along

1820
01:36:53,040 --> 01:36:57,679
Speaker 1: with left tackle Trent Williams. Dolphins leading rusher Miles Gaskin

1821
01:36:57,720 --> 01:36:59,839
Speaker 1: will miss at least three games due to a knee injury.

1822
01:37:00,120 --> 01:37:03,519
Speaker 1: Dolphin's head coach Brian Flores has said that Gaskin has

1823
01:37:03,560 --> 01:37:05,759
Speaker 1: been put on injured reserve due to that knee injury

1824
01:37:05,760 --> 01:37:10,240
Speaker 1: that he suffered last Sunday. And one note from college football,

1825
01:37:10,320 --> 01:37:12,559
Speaker 1: One game down, five more to go for the University

1826
01:37:12,560 --> 01:37:15,960
Speaker 1: of Buffalo. As you be top Northern Illinois forty nine

1827
01:37:16,200 --> 01:37:19,720
Speaker 1: thirty on Wednesday night to open their season at one

1828
01:37:19,760 --> 01:37:22,439
Speaker 1: to zero in the Mid American Conference. That is your

1829
01:37:22,479 --> 01:37:25,799
Speaker 1: sports update from One Bill's Drive. Chris Brown, Maddy Glab

1830
01:37:25,840 --> 01:37:28,759
Speaker 1: with you as we begin our number three of the program,

1831
01:37:28,840 --> 01:37:30,960
Speaker 1: and as we've been doing for most of the week,

1832
01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:34,280
Speaker 1: we've been talking Seahawks for this matchup coming on Sunday.

1833
01:37:34,479 --> 01:37:39,040
Speaker 1: And here to help us do that is former Seahawks linebacker,

1834
01:37:39,439 --> 01:37:42,200
Speaker 1: three time Pro bowler, and I believe he owns a

1835
01:37:42,240 --> 01:37:46,160
Speaker 1: Super Bowl ring from that championship team of the Seattle Seahawks,

1836
01:37:46,720 --> 01:37:50,240
Speaker 1: Loafa to Tupu joining us on the line right now.

1837
01:37:50,479 --> 01:37:55,679
Speaker 1: How are we doing LOFA? Oh good, I just missed

1838
01:37:55,680 --> 01:38:01,160
Speaker 1: out on that. Oh dang it. Well you did win?

1839
01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:03,920
Speaker 1: Did you at least win a national title? At USC?

1840
01:38:06,320 --> 01:38:09,840
Speaker 1: I was blessed to two. Yeah. See, okay, so you're

1841
01:38:09,920 --> 01:38:13,800
Speaker 1: you're covered. You're good. Yeah, You're definitely covered. H. I

1842
01:38:13,840 --> 01:38:17,920
Speaker 1: wanted to begin LOFA with um this Seahawks defense. The

1843
01:38:18,240 --> 01:38:21,559
Speaker 1: offense has been getting all the headlines, and understandably so.

1844
01:38:21,640 --> 01:38:25,760
Speaker 1: They're the leading scoring team in the league. UM, But defensively,

1845
01:38:26,280 --> 01:38:28,160
Speaker 1: there are some numbers there that Maddie and I have

1846
01:38:28,160 --> 01:38:30,880
Speaker 1: been discussing on the show today and some of them

1847
01:38:30,880 --> 01:38:33,559
Speaker 1: hold water, some of them don't. And you know, we're

1848
01:38:33,560 --> 01:38:36,320
Speaker 1: looking for your defensive perspective. We know you're no defensive

1849
01:38:36,320 --> 01:38:39,519
Speaker 1: coordinator Ken Norton very well because he was you know,

1850
01:38:39,560 --> 01:38:43,600
Speaker 1: you're coach in college. So when you look at the

1851
01:38:43,680 --> 01:38:46,799
Speaker 1: Seattle defense and you say, wow, last in the league

1852
01:38:46,800 --> 01:38:50,280
Speaker 1: and yards allowed, how much of that do you chalk

1853
01:38:50,400 --> 01:38:53,320
Speaker 1: up to the fact that the Seahawks are always ahead

1854
01:38:53,360 --> 01:38:56,759
Speaker 1: on the scoreboard and so they're not that worried about

1855
01:38:56,840 --> 01:39:01,040
Speaker 1: giving up yardage defensively because the usually are out in

1856
01:39:01,120 --> 01:39:03,800
Speaker 1: front and can afford to give up yards maybe in

1857
01:39:03,840 --> 01:39:08,320
Speaker 1: exchange for time to shorten the game. Yeah, that's that's

1858
01:39:08,320 --> 01:39:10,439
Speaker 1: what I believe a lot of it is. You know,

1859
01:39:10,479 --> 01:39:13,360
Speaker 1: you see, you know, last in the league in yards

1860
01:39:13,439 --> 01:39:15,559
Speaker 1: that's fine. So we're six and one, and I think

1861
01:39:15,600 --> 01:39:18,920
Speaker 1: that's like, like you said, perspective. It kind of tends

1862
01:39:18,960 --> 01:39:21,280
Speaker 1: to go back and forth with all the good the numbers,

1863
01:39:21,320 --> 01:39:23,680
Speaker 1: but the only numbers we care about as wins and

1864
01:39:23,800 --> 01:39:26,599
Speaker 1: as long as we're ahead on the points. And another

1865
01:39:26,640 --> 01:39:28,920
Speaker 1: big thing is we are winning the turnover margin. And

1866
01:39:28,960 --> 01:39:32,760
Speaker 1: that's that's both offense and defense combined. But you know,

1867
01:39:32,840 --> 01:39:34,720
Speaker 1: you're you can give up some yards, I know you

1868
01:39:34,720 --> 01:39:37,000
Speaker 1: don't like to and as long as you're getting after

1869
01:39:37,240 --> 01:39:42,280
Speaker 1: you know the turnovers. How different does this defense look

1870
01:39:43,000 --> 01:39:47,320
Speaker 1: than in years past? In twenty thirteen, that's the last time,

1871
01:39:47,360 --> 01:39:51,080
Speaker 1: in the second time in franchise history, that the Seahawks

1872
01:39:51,080 --> 01:39:53,960
Speaker 1: started the season six and one, and in twenty thirteen

1873
01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:57,000
Speaker 1: they did it with their defense. Now in twenty twenty,

1874
01:39:57,040 --> 01:39:59,680
Speaker 1: we're seeing they're doing it with their offense. So how

1875
01:39:59,680 --> 01:40:02,280
Speaker 1: have you seen this kind this defense kind of shift

1876
01:40:02,400 --> 01:40:07,400
Speaker 1: in different ways over the last few years in Seattle? Yeah,

1877
01:40:07,439 --> 01:40:10,599
Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing is is upfront, right, and

1878
01:40:11,479 --> 01:40:15,040
Speaker 1: you know, not having the big time pass rushers we've had,

1879
01:40:15,080 --> 01:40:19,680
Speaker 1: you know, Cliff Avram, Michael Bennett, Chris Clemens, so the

1880
01:40:19,680 --> 01:40:22,320
Speaker 1: guys in the middle to really push the pocket in

1881
01:40:22,400 --> 01:40:27,080
Speaker 1: Knee Vane and Clinton McDonald. So that rush goes hand

1882
01:40:27,120 --> 01:40:29,479
Speaker 1: in hand with the yards that you're seeing in terms

1883
01:40:29,479 --> 01:40:32,639
Speaker 1: of how they're able to accumulate all those yards. If

1884
01:40:32,800 --> 01:40:34,760
Speaker 1: if we get after the quarterback, they don't have time

1885
01:40:34,800 --> 01:40:39,040
Speaker 1: to find the open guy. And really they're getting creative

1886
01:40:39,280 --> 01:40:42,040
Speaker 1: in terms of how they're applying the pressure. With all

1887
01:40:42,040 --> 01:40:43,920
Speaker 1: the injuries we've had up front, and I know it's

1888
01:40:43,920 --> 01:40:46,600
Speaker 1: no excuses injuries happening to everybody, but they're starting to

1889
01:40:46,640 --> 01:40:50,080
Speaker 1: send Bobby Waggermore, who's one of the greatest pass rushing

1890
01:40:50,160 --> 01:40:53,040
Speaker 1: middle linebackers I've seen in a long time. And we're

1891
01:40:53,080 --> 01:40:56,240
Speaker 1: about to get Jamal Adams back healthy. He practiced full

1892
01:40:56,240 --> 01:41:00,360
Speaker 1: go today. So it's exciting because both of those guys

1893
01:41:00,360 --> 01:41:02,759
Speaker 1: when you send them, they're able to effect and change

1894
01:41:02,760 --> 01:41:04,960
Speaker 1: the outcome of a play just by winning their one

1895
01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:09,719
Speaker 1: on one matchups. So how much has that creative pressure

1896
01:41:09,760 --> 01:41:13,280
Speaker 1: if you will help them in leading? I mean, this

1897
01:41:13,320 --> 01:41:17,160
Speaker 1: team leads the league and takeaways. And you think to yourself, okay, well,

1898
01:41:17,200 --> 01:41:19,280
Speaker 1: a lot of these other opponents have to throw the

1899
01:41:19,280 --> 01:41:21,880
Speaker 1: ball to either catch up on the scoreboard or to

1900
01:41:21,960 --> 01:41:25,200
Speaker 1: keep pace on the scoreboard. But knowing their pass rush

1901
01:41:25,240 --> 01:41:28,639
Speaker 1: has been an exercise in fits and starts here through

1902
01:41:28,680 --> 01:41:30,479
Speaker 1: the course of the season. You're like, how are they

1903
01:41:30,520 --> 01:41:33,639
Speaker 1: still taking the ball away so much? If their pass

1904
01:41:33,720 --> 01:41:36,200
Speaker 1: rush is lacking so much, they're going out and getting

1905
01:41:36,200 --> 01:41:38,439
Speaker 1: a Carlos dunlap, how are they still taking the ball

1906
01:41:38,479 --> 01:41:42,880
Speaker 1: away so well? Well, that's something we've always preached, and

1907
01:41:42,880 --> 01:41:45,040
Speaker 1: this goes back to my day's playing for Pete back

1908
01:41:45,160 --> 01:41:48,160
Speaker 1: at USC the you know, we gave up a ton

1909
01:41:48,200 --> 01:41:50,599
Speaker 1: of yards, you know, if you go back and look

1910
01:41:50,640 --> 01:41:53,759
Speaker 1: at those defense and three oh four at oh five.

1911
01:41:54,840 --> 01:41:58,519
Speaker 1: The historically better defenses were the ones that followed in six,

1912
01:41:58,600 --> 01:42:02,679
Speaker 1: seven or eight. But we were plus eighteen, plus nineteen

1913
01:42:02,720 --> 01:42:05,040
Speaker 1: and plus twenty one in those three years and turnovers.

1914
01:42:05,360 --> 01:42:08,960
Speaker 1: So it's always been a focal point of his program

1915
01:42:09,200 --> 01:42:12,439
Speaker 1: of the organization is you know, yet after that ball

1916
01:42:12,439 --> 01:42:14,720
Speaker 1: and when you got a guy like Russell Wilson on

1917
01:42:14,720 --> 01:42:17,320
Speaker 1: the other side making the most of those opportunities, you

1918
01:42:17,360 --> 01:42:19,200
Speaker 1: want to create more and more just to get him

1919
01:42:19,240 --> 01:42:23,160
Speaker 1: out there and let Russ cook. Definitely, we're trying to

1920
01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:27,720
Speaker 1: let Josh Cook in this game too. Speaking of the

1921
01:42:27,760 --> 01:42:31,280
Speaker 1: defensive line and the addition of Carlos Dunlap and even

1922
01:42:31,400 --> 01:42:35,040
Speaker 1: Jamal Adams playing some more snaps in this game, finally

1923
01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:40,000
Speaker 1: getting back into things. The defense has twelve sacks this season,

1924
01:42:40,000 --> 01:42:44,520
Speaker 1: they ranked twenty fourth, and the Seahawks defense ranks fifteenth

1925
01:42:44,560 --> 01:42:47,320
Speaker 1: with blitz percentage doing at thirty point seven percent of

1926
01:42:47,360 --> 01:42:49,559
Speaker 1: the time. You add these two players back to the

1927
01:42:49,560 --> 01:42:53,920
Speaker 1: defense and you think that number increases. Where do you

1928
01:42:54,000 --> 01:42:58,520
Speaker 1: think this defense should go forward with in blitzing, especially

1929
01:42:58,600 --> 01:43:02,639
Speaker 1: against a quarterback like Josh Allen, a guy who can

1930
01:43:02,760 --> 01:43:06,080
Speaker 1: throw the ball down field, but he can also uh

1931
01:43:06,240 --> 01:43:08,880
Speaker 1: make you move out of the pocket, breaks some things

1932
01:43:08,880 --> 01:43:13,360
Speaker 1: off with his legs. Yeah, he can definitely extend the play.

1933
01:43:13,520 --> 01:43:16,679
Speaker 1: And that's why you know, in sending two phenomenal athletes

1934
01:43:16,720 --> 01:43:20,040
Speaker 1: like Jamal and Bobby, you can't get those are two

1935
01:43:20,160 --> 01:43:23,240
Speaker 1: four three and four four guys, you know, forty wise,

1936
01:43:23,400 --> 01:43:26,080
Speaker 1: so they can keep up with with Josh, who's a

1937
01:43:26,120 --> 01:43:30,960
Speaker 1: bigger guy six five to forty. And then Dunlop. We're

1938
01:43:30,960 --> 01:43:33,320
Speaker 1: talking about a guy that I don't know what the

1939
01:43:33,320 --> 01:43:37,400
Speaker 1: conversation the Bengals got, but he's produced eight eighty plus

1940
01:43:37,439 --> 01:43:40,040
Speaker 1: sacks in his ten year career and I think he's

1941
01:43:40,080 --> 01:43:42,880
Speaker 1: got plenty left, you know, in the tank. And then

1942
01:43:42,880 --> 01:43:46,200
Speaker 1: we're also don't forget about snacks, right, We're gonna add

1943
01:43:46,280 --> 01:43:49,160
Speaker 1: him to the Knicks two eventually. And you know, those

1944
01:43:49,200 --> 01:43:51,400
Speaker 1: are some Pro Bowl players, and when you get that,

1945
01:43:51,920 --> 01:43:54,160
Speaker 1: it's gonna take maybe a week or two, maybe three

1946
01:43:54,240 --> 01:43:56,600
Speaker 1: to get the chemistry. But those guys know how to

1947
01:43:56,600 --> 01:43:58,840
Speaker 1: play football, their veterans and it's exciting to you know,

1948
01:43:58,880 --> 01:44:00,960
Speaker 1: add them to the Knicks and we haven't. We saw

1949
01:44:01,000 --> 01:44:04,040
Speaker 1: two games with Jamal early on and he had two tacks.

1950
01:44:04,439 --> 01:44:08,679
Speaker 1: So the combination of sending him and Bobby to create

1951
01:44:08,720 --> 01:44:11,960
Speaker 1: the pressure because if the ball's coming out fast, it

1952
01:44:12,080 --> 01:44:14,400
Speaker 1: doesn't it doesn't matter. We'll be fine covering on the

1953
01:44:14,439 --> 01:44:16,960
Speaker 1: back end. And you know, we do have to worry

1954
01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:20,280
Speaker 1: about Diggs, who you know, phenomenal receiver in his own right. Though,

1955
01:44:20,640 --> 01:44:23,519
Speaker 1: talking to lofas a two proof former Seahawks linebacker, former

1956
01:44:23,560 --> 01:44:28,639
Speaker 1: Seahawks assistant linebackers coach, three time Pro bowler, and Lofa,

1957
01:44:28,680 --> 01:44:31,280
Speaker 1: I'm curious if you can like do a little bit

1958
01:44:31,280 --> 01:44:33,639
Speaker 1: of a scouting report for us in terms of how

1959
01:44:34,200 --> 01:44:39,160
Speaker 1: Seattle's previous opponents have tried to defend Russell Wilson and

1960
01:44:39,280 --> 01:44:42,360
Speaker 1: this offense, because it really seems like a pick your

1961
01:44:42,360 --> 01:44:44,800
Speaker 1: poison type thing. Now. I know their running backs have

1962
01:44:44,920 --> 01:44:47,720
Speaker 1: been banged up, and so maybe that has afforded some

1963
01:44:47,760 --> 01:44:50,679
Speaker 1: of these defenses the opportunity to maybe focus a little

1964
01:44:50,680 --> 01:44:53,040
Speaker 1: bit more on keeping everything in front of them and

1965
01:44:53,040 --> 01:44:56,000
Speaker 1: playing soft coverage in terms of defending the past. But

1966
01:44:56,240 --> 01:44:58,120
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like anyone has come up with a

1967
01:44:58,160 --> 01:45:01,800
Speaker 1: solution here that any body else can follow or copy,

1968
01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:04,479
Speaker 1: knowing the copycat league that it is what has been

1969
01:45:04,520 --> 01:45:09,560
Speaker 1: the general approach of Seattle's opponents in terms of coverage

1970
01:45:09,600 --> 01:45:14,040
Speaker 1: and defense. There there really isn't there. I haven't. You

1971
01:45:14,840 --> 01:45:17,719
Speaker 1: can maybe slow him down a bit, that's not the answer.

1972
01:45:17,720 --> 01:45:20,880
Speaker 1: I'm looking for a lover, give us, give us the playbook.

1973
01:45:20,880 --> 01:45:24,639
Speaker 1: We need it. I'm I'm telling you, I don't think

1974
01:45:24,640 --> 01:45:28,120
Speaker 1: there is one right now, and averaging well over thirty

1975
01:45:28,280 --> 01:45:32,120
Speaker 1: they just I guess the one bad game you saw

1976
01:45:32,960 --> 01:45:35,720
Speaker 1: was Arizona, and it wasn't I mean, he accounted for

1977
01:45:35,760 --> 01:45:38,280
Speaker 1: four hundred and seventy two yards of offense and three touchdowns,

1978
01:45:38,280 --> 01:45:39,800
Speaker 1: So I don't even know that you'd call that a

1979
01:45:39,840 --> 01:45:44,479
Speaker 1: bad bad game. Yeah, yeah, there's he has no stores

1980
01:45:44,520 --> 01:45:46,960
Speaker 1: of weapons, and I mean I've seen some teams all

1981
01:45:46,960 --> 01:45:50,280
Speaker 1: out blitz him and he continually, which means they have

1982
01:45:50,400 --> 01:45:54,120
Speaker 1: an extra defender. Then you do blocker and he just

1983
01:45:54,200 --> 01:45:57,000
Speaker 1: continues to back pedal and then make his decision and

1984
01:45:57,720 --> 01:46:01,559
Speaker 1: release that ball. I think there's several times I've seen

1985
01:46:01,560 --> 01:46:03,719
Speaker 1: teams do that and it didn't work out, and so

1986
01:46:04,120 --> 01:46:06,280
Speaker 1: then they go back into conservative. They try to sit

1987
01:46:06,320 --> 01:46:10,080
Speaker 1: in coverage in because just like your guy Josh, they

1988
01:46:10,120 --> 01:46:12,600
Speaker 1: can extend plays. You know, they're so dangerous, you know,

1989
01:46:12,640 --> 01:46:15,439
Speaker 1: on the move and can throw from seemingly anywhere. So

1990
01:46:15,880 --> 01:46:18,720
Speaker 1: there is no playbook or even I haven't seen a

1991
01:46:18,760 --> 01:46:21,760
Speaker 1: scheme stop this guy. Maybe slow him down a bit,

1992
01:46:21,800 --> 01:46:24,560
Speaker 1: But it's it's a tall task with especially with the

1993
01:46:24,600 --> 01:46:28,240
Speaker 1: weapons he has, those those receivers Metcalf and lock It. Um.

1994
01:46:28,640 --> 01:46:31,320
Speaker 1: It seems to be going back and forth, which who's

1995
01:46:31,320 --> 01:46:34,000
Speaker 1: gonna get the most opportunities Metcalf with one hundred and

1996
01:46:34,040 --> 01:46:36,680
Speaker 1: sixty this past week, lock It with three hundred or

1997
01:46:36,720 --> 01:46:40,439
Speaker 1: two hundred yards on fifteen and three touchdowns the previous week.

1998
01:46:40,520 --> 01:46:44,360
Speaker 1: So um, and then even you take away the running

1999
01:46:44,400 --> 01:46:47,080
Speaker 1: game we didn't have we had. We were down to

2000
01:46:47,120 --> 01:46:49,559
Speaker 1: a rookie running back in DJ Dallas, who I think

2001
01:46:49,640 --> 01:46:53,639
Speaker 1: is gonna be a phenomenal player, and and we still

2002
01:46:53,680 --> 01:46:55,920
Speaker 1: we still found a way to get done. So it's

2003
01:46:55,960 --> 01:46:58,519
Speaker 1: it's impressive of what rust has been doing and it's

2004
01:46:58,520 --> 01:47:01,360
Speaker 1: gonna be hard pressed to see anybody beating him if

2005
01:47:01,360 --> 01:47:03,960
Speaker 1: he continues at this pace. For that MDP, Yeah, it's

2006
01:47:03,960 --> 01:47:06,760
Speaker 1: to pick your poison type offense with what they can

2007
01:47:06,800 --> 01:47:09,080
Speaker 1: go to and what they can use. Speaking of Russell,

2008
01:47:09,120 --> 01:47:13,200
Speaker 1: Wilson in his impressive season so far putting up MVP numbers.

2009
01:47:13,800 --> 01:47:17,280
Speaker 1: Being someone who's been able to watch Russell Wilson since

2010
01:47:17,320 --> 01:47:22,120
Speaker 1: he started playing in Seattle, what's unique about him this season?

2011
01:47:22,200 --> 01:47:25,280
Speaker 1: What's different about him this season that he's putting up

2012
01:47:25,320 --> 01:47:28,559
Speaker 1: these numbers and seeing this much success through nine weeks.

2013
01:47:30,120 --> 01:47:33,559
Speaker 1: I mean another year in he had Devil Darryl bebel

2014
01:47:33,640 --> 01:47:35,960
Speaker 1: for a phenomenal offensive core air for many years, and

2015
01:47:36,000 --> 01:47:38,920
Speaker 1: now he moved to Shaddy Scheenheimer and I think just

2016
01:47:38,960 --> 01:47:42,600
Speaker 1: a little more comfortability in the offense. And then the

2017
01:47:42,640 --> 01:47:45,880
Speaker 1: emergence of DK Metcalf. I don't know how you stopped

2018
01:47:45,920 --> 01:47:48,840
Speaker 1: that guy. I think the Patriots, who had the defensive

2019
01:47:48,840 --> 01:47:52,559
Speaker 1: player of the year manned up on him. You know,

2020
01:47:52,960 --> 01:47:55,240
Speaker 1: he had a rough day and that you know, I

2021
01:47:55,240 --> 01:47:57,800
Speaker 1: have a lot of respect for Stefan Gilmore. I think

2022
01:47:57,800 --> 01:48:00,080
Speaker 1: he still is the best corner of the game. And

2023
01:48:00,120 --> 01:48:02,040
Speaker 1: you're telling me that that guy, you know, had a

2024
01:48:02,040 --> 01:48:04,040
Speaker 1: hard time with them. I don't know if anybody else

2025
01:48:04,520 --> 01:48:08,000
Speaker 1: is gonna, you know, fare very well. So um you

2026
01:48:08,040 --> 01:48:10,360
Speaker 1: know again and lock it and then hopefully we get

2027
01:48:10,400 --> 01:48:12,599
Speaker 1: these running backs healthy again, because I like what Hyde

2028
01:48:12,720 --> 01:48:15,160
Speaker 1: was doing and Chris Carson. You know, just like a

2029
01:48:15,200 --> 01:48:18,160
Speaker 1: guy you guys are familiar with beast mode. He got

2030
01:48:18,240 --> 01:48:20,960
Speaker 1: he has that same running style. And um, when when

2031
01:48:20,960 --> 01:48:24,640
Speaker 1: a running back just you know, is running through defenses,

2032
01:48:24,680 --> 01:48:27,280
Speaker 1: it only it lifts the whole team and the energy

2033
01:48:27,320 --> 01:48:30,759
Speaker 1: and the mentality that if my running back is hitting

2034
01:48:30,800 --> 01:48:33,599
Speaker 1: people this hard, I have to hit you know, their

2035
01:48:33,680 --> 01:48:36,400
Speaker 1: running back harder because you don't want to be you

2036
01:48:36,400 --> 01:48:37,840
Speaker 1: don't want to have the best hits go to a

2037
01:48:37,920 --> 01:48:41,680
Speaker 1: running back. Right. Yeah, we're talking a lotta to Tupu,

2038
01:48:41,840 --> 01:48:45,759
Speaker 1: former Seahawks linebacker, former Seahawks coach, And speaking of coaching,

2039
01:48:46,680 --> 01:48:49,559
Speaker 1: one guy that you coach for a season within Seattle

2040
01:48:49,680 --> 01:48:53,280
Speaker 1: is a special team's coach here in Buffalo and he farwell. Um,

2041
01:48:54,080 --> 01:48:57,280
Speaker 1: he's he's really kind of grown this unit here now

2042
01:48:57,320 --> 01:49:00,920
Speaker 1: in year two and he's got a fantastic return man

2043
01:49:00,960 --> 01:49:04,880
Speaker 1: in Andre Roberts. So, um, what do you remember about

2044
01:49:05,040 --> 01:49:07,040
Speaker 1: Heath as a young up and coming coach. I mean,

2045
01:49:07,080 --> 01:49:09,559
Speaker 1: both of you guys were kind of making your way

2046
01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:12,360
Speaker 1: up the totem pole, so to speak, in the coaching

2047
01:49:12,439 --> 01:49:14,720
Speaker 1: ranks when you were there together, at least for that

2048
01:49:14,720 --> 01:49:17,839
Speaker 1: one year in twenty sixteen, What what did you remember

2049
01:49:17,880 --> 01:49:21,479
Speaker 1: about Heath Um just as he was trying to cut

2050
01:49:21,479 --> 01:49:26,880
Speaker 1: his teeth in this coaching game. Um. Awesome guy. I've

2051
01:49:26,880 --> 01:49:28,960
Speaker 1: known Heath. I think we're both two thousand and five

2052
01:49:29,040 --> 01:49:32,200
Speaker 1: draft class. Uh and um he is a member of

2053
01:49:32,240 --> 01:49:36,720
Speaker 1: the Seahawks super Bowl team. Um. And just he's an incredible,

2054
01:49:36,800 --> 01:49:39,599
Speaker 1: incredible guy. But he's one of the hardest workers, and

2055
01:49:39,640 --> 01:49:42,519
Speaker 1: so it's no surprise that he has this unit where

2056
01:49:42,520 --> 01:49:45,920
Speaker 1: they're at and uh and he's just Uh, that's that's

2057
01:49:45,920 --> 01:49:48,639
Speaker 1: what I remember from you know, because we're pretty similar

2058
01:49:48,640 --> 01:49:51,479
Speaker 1: in statue. We're smaller linebackers, you know, five to eleven,

2059
01:49:51,680 --> 01:49:54,400
Speaker 1: you know, two thirty, two forty and uh. And but

2060
01:49:54,520 --> 01:49:56,400
Speaker 1: he was always one of the toughest guys out there.

2061
01:49:56,720 --> 01:49:59,120
Speaker 1: And that's what I think he's bringing to to his

2062
01:49:59,120 --> 01:50:02,000
Speaker 1: his special teams or over there. When you look at

2063
01:50:02,040 --> 01:50:03,920
Speaker 1: this game, what do you think it's going to come

2064
01:50:04,080 --> 01:50:09,280
Speaker 1: down to on Sunday? We're gonna have to stop that

2065
01:50:09,600 --> 01:50:12,080
Speaker 1: rushing attack that they put up close to two hundred

2066
01:50:12,160 --> 01:50:14,960
Speaker 1: yards and you know, it's really a three headed monster. Alan,

2067
01:50:15,040 --> 01:50:18,439
Speaker 1: Singletary and moss Um, all of them. You know, they're

2068
01:50:18,520 --> 01:50:21,519
Speaker 1: they're tough, physical runners, and they finish runs and that's

2069
01:50:21,520 --> 01:50:23,639
Speaker 1: the sign of a great running back. And then also

2070
01:50:23,960 --> 01:50:26,040
Speaker 1: when you get your quarterback doing that, that just adds

2071
01:50:26,080 --> 01:50:28,880
Speaker 1: to it, as we know with Russell. So if we

2072
01:50:28,920 --> 01:50:31,479
Speaker 1: can stop or slow down that run, because we do

2073
01:50:31,560 --> 01:50:35,200
Speaker 1: have I think the seventh or eighth rush defense, so

2074
01:50:35,280 --> 01:50:38,439
Speaker 1: it's going to be strength against strength there um, And

2075
01:50:38,800 --> 01:50:43,160
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know how Buffalo stops Metcalf and

2076
01:50:43,400 --> 01:50:46,760
Speaker 1: lock it, and if you double him, I think they

2077
01:50:47,040 --> 01:50:49,799
Speaker 1: finally get to unleash either David Moore in the slot

2078
01:50:49,920 --> 01:50:53,080
Speaker 1: or or see some of the tight ends Olsen and

2079
01:50:53,240 --> 01:50:57,600
Speaker 1: uh and Disily and and Hollister get after it. All right,

2080
01:50:57,680 --> 01:51:01,000
Speaker 1: So loaf enough about the game, because it's of great

2081
01:51:01,040 --> 01:51:02,840
Speaker 1: concern anyway, because I don't know how they are going

2082
01:51:02,880 --> 01:51:04,519
Speaker 1: to stop all that stuff. I think it's gonna have

2083
01:51:04,560 --> 01:51:07,519
Speaker 1: to be a shootout, and I'm hoping it comes down

2084
01:51:07,560 --> 01:51:09,960
Speaker 1: to who has the ball last, because in those kinds

2085
01:51:10,000 --> 01:51:11,840
Speaker 1: of games, at least early in the season, the Bills

2086
01:51:11,840 --> 01:51:15,720
Speaker 1: fared pretty well in such a scenario with Josh with

2087
01:51:15,760 --> 01:51:17,720
Speaker 1: a couple of fourth quarter comebacks. And it may take

2088
01:51:17,760 --> 01:51:20,519
Speaker 1: that since Seattle's never really trailed on the scoreboard all season.

2089
01:51:20,880 --> 01:51:24,720
Speaker 1: But you're keeping yourself busy right, you're dabbling in the

01:52:36,080 --> 01:52:39,360
Speaker 1: that's Loafa to two po former Seahawks linebacker, former assistant

2111
01:52:39,479 --> 01:52:41,920
Speaker 1: linebackers coach for the Seahawks, coach for a couple of

2112
01:52:41,920 --> 01:52:44,479
Speaker 1: seasons under Pete Carroll, who was also his college coach

2113
01:52:45,000 --> 01:52:49,040
Speaker 1: at USC, Man, could you imagine a better situation going

2114
01:52:49,120 --> 01:52:52,559
Speaker 1: from college to the pros? Like your college coach then

2115
01:52:52,640 --> 01:52:54,920
Speaker 1: goes to the NFL and then he drafts you in

2116
01:52:55,000 --> 01:52:57,479
Speaker 1: like the second round. I mean, could you feel better

2117
01:52:57,520 --> 01:53:01,800
Speaker 1: about a way to start your professional career? Ay? So

2118
01:53:02,120 --> 01:53:04,880
Speaker 1: you are so lucky too that you were able to

2119
01:53:05,000 --> 01:53:09,000
Speaker 1: win two championships at USC and then you go to

2120
01:53:09,160 --> 01:53:12,320
Speaker 1: a Seahawks team. He didn't win the Super Bowl with him,

2121
01:53:12,360 --> 01:53:15,599
Speaker 1: but he was an NFC champion in two thousand and five,

2122
01:53:15,720 --> 01:53:18,960
Speaker 1: three time Pro bowler, like you, going from good situation

2123
01:53:19,000 --> 01:53:23,240
Speaker 1: a good situation. I'm cheered for the Chicago Cubs and

2124
01:53:23,240 --> 01:53:26,960
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills, and I mean I haven't had that yet.

2125
01:53:27,120 --> 01:53:29,479
Speaker 1: I got one World Series from the Chicago Cubs. Hey,

2126
01:53:29,560 --> 01:53:32,080
Speaker 1: that happened. That happened four years ago this week. Man,

2127
01:53:32,160 --> 01:53:34,320
Speaker 1: it did the World Series title. I'm sure you mark

2128
01:53:34,360 --> 01:53:37,479
Speaker 1: the anniversary every single year, definitely. What is the date?

2129
01:53:37,680 --> 01:53:41,639
Speaker 1: I'm sure I'm oh, gosh, I think it was on Tuesday, Yeah, yeah,

2130
01:53:41,680 --> 01:53:46,360
Speaker 1: November third. Um, yeah, I thought you'd have that like that. No,

2131
01:53:46,600 --> 01:53:50,200
Speaker 1: not like that party like it's twenty sixteen. It was

2132
01:53:50,240 --> 01:53:52,719
Speaker 1: a wonderful day, it was well. Yeah, and you guys

2133
01:53:52,760 --> 01:53:56,040
Speaker 1: are you guys deserve that long suffering fans up there

2134
01:53:56,080 --> 01:54:00,000
Speaker 1: for sure, and fans that are probably as loyal as

2135
01:54:00,120 --> 01:54:03,880
Speaker 1: Bills fans through all the lean years. But yes, I

2136
01:54:03,960 --> 01:54:07,479
Speaker 1: know exactly where you're coming from. So yeah, it'd be

2137
01:54:07,600 --> 01:54:09,800
Speaker 1: nice if we could spread the wealth a little bit

2138
01:54:09,840 --> 01:54:12,240
Speaker 1: in the NFL, a little bit more, um and and

2139
01:54:12,280 --> 01:54:14,400
Speaker 1: a division title for the Bills would be step one

2140
01:54:14,479 --> 01:54:17,160
Speaker 1: in getting there, and and the Bills are in good

2141
01:54:17,200 --> 01:54:20,320
Speaker 1: position to do that, but the gauntlet begins this week

2142
01:54:20,360 --> 01:54:22,760
Speaker 1: with the Seahawks, and I gotta tell you, Lofa did

2143
01:54:22,760 --> 01:54:27,320
Speaker 1: not make me feel any better about the situation here

2144
01:54:27,960 --> 01:54:32,400
Speaker 1: A defensively just stopping good. Um, he's like the only

2145
01:54:32,440 --> 01:54:34,480
Speaker 1: bad game that Russell had he had four hundred and

2146
01:54:34,480 --> 01:54:36,520
Speaker 1: sixty eight total yards of offense. So I don't know

2147
01:54:36,560 --> 01:54:39,040
Speaker 1: if that's a bad game. I was like, yeah, probably not.

2148
01:54:39,440 --> 01:54:42,600
Speaker 1: But three interceptions is what put Arizona in position to

2149
01:54:42,640 --> 01:54:44,880
Speaker 1: win that game, and that may be the way the

2150
01:54:44,880 --> 01:54:47,000
Speaker 1: Bills defense has to go this week. They may need

2151
01:54:47,040 --> 01:54:50,400
Speaker 1: to get three takeaways, and Russell Wilson doesn't really do

2152
01:54:50,440 --> 01:54:53,560
Speaker 1: that all that often because he's got six interceptions on

2153
01:54:53,600 --> 01:54:56,520
Speaker 1: the season and three happened in that game, which is

2154
01:54:57,320 --> 01:55:01,160
Speaker 1: probably being portrayed as his stinker game this year when

2155
01:55:01,160 --> 01:55:03,320
Speaker 1: he's when he still had four years and sixty eight

2156
01:55:03,360 --> 01:55:08,040
Speaker 1: yards of offense. And I think people that haven't seen

2157
01:55:08,160 --> 01:55:10,560
Speaker 1: enough of the Seahawks games might be under the false

2158
01:55:11,800 --> 01:55:17,120
Speaker 1: impression that he's just a thrower. Now that is not true.

2159
01:55:17,640 --> 01:55:21,240
Speaker 1: The guy still runs the ball when he needs to,

2160
01:55:21,480 --> 01:55:25,720
Speaker 1: and he's still a pretty effective runner. Um, So that

2161
01:55:25,760 --> 01:55:28,720
Speaker 1: cannot be forgotten, and I'm sure it isn't by you know,

2162
01:55:28,720 --> 01:55:31,720
Speaker 1: the Bill's defensive coaches, and you know they watch enough

2163
01:55:31,760 --> 01:55:35,600
Speaker 1: film and know what they need to be ready for Um.

2164
01:55:35,720 --> 01:55:38,240
Speaker 1: But just knowing that when he escapes he can go

2165
01:55:38,280 --> 01:55:40,720
Speaker 1: for ten or fifteen move the sticks, and now it's

2166
01:55:40,720 --> 01:55:42,640
Speaker 1: a fresh set of downs for that passing game, It's like,

2167
01:55:42,720 --> 01:55:46,960
Speaker 1: oh man, they've got that too. What is going on here?

2168
01:55:47,000 --> 01:55:49,400
Speaker 1: What do they not have too many options? That they

2169
01:55:49,400 --> 01:55:53,160
Speaker 1: don't have healthy running back? That's what we can fall back. Now,

2170
01:55:53,200 --> 01:55:55,320
Speaker 1: they don't have healthy running backs. That's what they don't. Yeah,

2171
01:55:56,240 --> 01:55:58,000
Speaker 1: I guess we'll have to live with that. I don't know.

2172
01:55:58,320 --> 01:56:01,760
Speaker 1: You can't have everything, but give us something to chew

2173
01:56:01,840 --> 01:56:03,600
Speaker 1: on here. All right, that was a good chat with

2174
01:56:03,680 --> 01:56:06,240
Speaker 1: Lofa Tatupu. We have to take a break, but when

2175
01:56:06,240 --> 01:56:08,760
Speaker 1: we return, we'll wrap things up on the tweet sheet

2176
01:56:08,960 --> 01:56:11,360
Speaker 1: and then we'll get into a little true false both

2177
01:56:11,360 --> 01:56:13,320
Speaker 1: of those things coming up, and we'll take your phone calls.

2178
01:56:13,320 --> 01:56:15,800
Speaker 1: Eight three, five fifty. All of that coming your way.

2179
01:56:15,840 --> 01:56:18,880
Speaker 1: Next here on One Bills Live presented by Kalida Health,

2180
01:56:19,160 --> 01:56:35,680
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bills Radio. Back on One Bill's Live, final

2181
01:56:35,760 --> 01:56:38,240
Speaker 1: half hour of the program, Chris Brown, Maddy Glab with you,

2182
01:56:38,800 --> 01:56:40,919
Speaker 1: and we wanted to get you some of the comments

2183
01:56:41,160 --> 01:56:44,760
Speaker 1: from the players this week. Obviously, Wednesday is the big

2184
01:56:44,760 --> 01:56:48,640
Speaker 1: media availability day for the players who answered questions at

2185
01:56:48,640 --> 01:56:52,120
Speaker 1: that point in time. And josh Alan had some good comments.

2186
01:56:52,680 --> 01:56:55,280
Speaker 1: And the first one really had nothing to do with

2187
01:56:55,360 --> 01:57:00,080
Speaker 1: the actual game. It dealt more with how he he

2188
01:57:00,200 --> 01:57:03,160
Speaker 1: chooses to lead, and I thought he had a really

2189
01:57:03,200 --> 01:57:05,240
Speaker 1: good answer yesterday. We wanted to share that with you.

2190
01:57:05,320 --> 01:57:08,520
Speaker 1: So here's josh on how he carries himself as a

2191
01:57:08,640 --> 01:57:12,920
Speaker 1: leader for the rest of the squad. I just try

2192
01:57:12,920 --> 01:57:14,920
Speaker 1: to be the best teammate on the best quarterback that

2193
01:57:14,960 --> 01:57:17,040
Speaker 1: I can be for this team. And um, some days

2194
01:57:17,040 --> 01:57:20,360
Speaker 1: it requires me to you know, have more juice. Um,

2195
01:57:20,480 --> 01:57:22,880
Speaker 1: it requires me to have more energy if guys aren't

2196
01:57:22,880 --> 01:57:25,560
Speaker 1: feeling you know, that day, if it's a gloomy day

2197
01:57:25,600 --> 01:57:27,920
Speaker 1: here in Buffalo, which sometimes it is, and I believe

2198
01:57:27,920 --> 01:57:30,800
Speaker 1: it or not, sometimes that that can affect mood. So, UM,

2199
01:57:30,880 --> 01:57:33,480
Speaker 1: I gotta be as positive as possible and keep preaching

2200
01:57:33,480 --> 01:57:37,040
Speaker 1: the guys and we're having fun and enjoying the game

2201
01:57:37,040 --> 01:57:39,600
Speaker 1: that we're playing and making sure that you know, we're

2202
01:57:39,840 --> 01:57:41,880
Speaker 1: keeping it on a lighter note too, and uh, you know,

2203
01:57:42,000 --> 01:57:44,680
Speaker 1: trying to brings me smile to the facilities as I

2204
01:57:44,720 --> 01:57:47,040
Speaker 1: can and making sure that everyone on his team knows

2205
01:57:47,040 --> 01:57:48,920
Speaker 1: that I love them and I got there back and

2206
01:57:48,920 --> 01:57:52,280
Speaker 1: I do anything for them. So so Mattie, Josh has

2207
01:57:52,320 --> 01:57:55,240
Speaker 1: got this broken down to players that might have light

2208
01:57:55,360 --> 01:57:59,040
Speaker 1: deprivation due to the very gray weather that we'll get

2209
01:57:59,080 --> 01:58:02,000
Speaker 1: here from November to basically April. I mean there are

2210
01:58:02,040 --> 01:58:04,000
Speaker 1: a lot of gray days here where you don't see

2211
01:58:04,000 --> 01:58:08,760
Speaker 1: the sun, and Josh is apparently tuned into light deprivation

2212
01:58:08,840 --> 01:58:12,080
Speaker 1: affecting player mood and is leading in that way. I mean,

2213
01:58:12,120 --> 01:58:14,960
Speaker 1: he is cutting it really fine here. He can do

2214
01:58:15,000 --> 01:58:19,080
Speaker 1: it all. It's incredible goodness. No, I think his leadership

2215
01:58:19,240 --> 01:58:23,440
Speaker 1: is amazing as a quarterback. I think just hearing from

2216
01:58:23,720 --> 01:58:26,360
Speaker 1: other how other players talk about him and how other

2217
01:58:26,400 --> 01:58:28,680
Speaker 1: players are like, I would run through brick wall for

2218
01:58:28,720 --> 01:58:31,440
Speaker 1: this guy because of how hard he plays on the

2219
01:58:31,440 --> 01:58:34,040
Speaker 1: field for me and because of how much he respects me.

2220
01:58:34,120 --> 01:58:37,040
Speaker 1: Like he is to a tee what you want in

2221
01:58:37,040 --> 01:58:39,960
Speaker 1: a quarterback with the way that he carries himself and

2222
01:58:40,080 --> 01:58:42,680
Speaker 1: leads a team. Yeah, I mean, anytime you see your

2223
01:58:42,720 --> 01:58:45,440
Speaker 1: quarterback putting his body on the line, I mean if

2224
01:58:45,440 --> 01:58:47,440
Speaker 1: that doesn't put a charge in you, you probably don't

2225
01:58:47,480 --> 01:58:50,760
Speaker 1: have a pulse. And he does that. I mean, he

2226
01:58:50,800 --> 01:58:52,840
Speaker 1: has shown that he's willing to put everything on the

2227
01:58:52,880 --> 01:58:55,320
Speaker 1: line for the sake of winning football games and that

2228
01:58:55,440 --> 01:58:58,960
Speaker 1: can't do anything but motivate teammates on either side of

2229
01:58:58,960 --> 01:59:02,680
Speaker 1: the ball. But Josh did address this game coming up

2230
01:59:02,720 --> 01:59:04,680
Speaker 1: against the Seahawks as well, so we wanted to get

2231
01:59:04,720 --> 01:59:07,920
Speaker 1: you his thoughts on that and the matchup that they

2232
01:59:07,920 --> 01:59:10,280
Speaker 1: will be facing in Russell Wilson and this high powered

2233
01:59:10,320 --> 01:59:14,560
Speaker 1: Seattle team. They've been good, you know for the last

2234
01:59:15,200 --> 01:59:19,000
Speaker 1: seven eight years and what coach you know, Carol's done

2235
01:59:19,000 --> 01:59:21,600
Speaker 1: there has been remarkable. And um, the long you know,

2236
01:59:21,640 --> 01:59:24,240
Speaker 1: kind of run of success that they've had is awesome

2237
01:59:24,280 --> 01:59:28,000
Speaker 1: for them. And um, you know, obviously the fans would

2238
01:59:28,000 --> 01:59:29,840
Speaker 1: love to see us go out there and win a game,

2239
01:59:29,880 --> 01:59:31,800
Speaker 1: but you know, we're just trying to go out there

2240
01:59:31,840 --> 01:59:34,280
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, like I said, execute our game plan.

2241
01:59:34,440 --> 01:59:37,520
Speaker 1: But um, yeah, I mean taking care of the football,

2242
01:59:37,640 --> 01:59:40,520
Speaker 1: moving chains on third down, UM, and scoring touchdowns and

2243
01:59:40,720 --> 01:59:42,800
Speaker 1: when we can is is going to be huge for us.

2244
01:59:42,800 --> 01:59:46,240
Speaker 1: And again we're not trying to put put anything past

2245
01:59:46,280 --> 01:59:48,360
Speaker 1: this defense. You know, they're forcing a lot of turnovers

2246
01:59:48,360 --> 01:59:50,960
Speaker 1: and um, like I said, a very opportunistic they got

2247
01:59:50,960 --> 01:59:53,360
Speaker 1: some some real dudes over there, So we got to

2248
01:59:53,360 --> 01:59:55,120
Speaker 1: be ready for anything that they can throw at us.

2249
01:59:55,120 --> 01:59:57,440
Speaker 1: And um, you know, have a good week of practice

2250
01:59:57,480 --> 01:59:59,880
Speaker 1: and try to prepare as well as we can. They've

2251
02:00:00,040 --> 02:00:03,360
Speaker 1: got some dudes over there. That is that is when

2252
02:00:03,480 --> 02:00:07,240
Speaker 1: Josh goes right back to the farm, when he uses

2253
02:00:07,280 --> 02:00:10,000
Speaker 1: that kind of that kind of language. I got some

2254
02:00:10,080 --> 02:00:12,680
Speaker 1: real dudes over there, Like that's what guys on the

2255
02:00:12,720 --> 02:00:15,440
Speaker 1: farm saying, like, you know, we got the high school

2256
02:00:15,520 --> 02:00:19,280
Speaker 1: game on Friday, and we got some real dudes over there.

2257
02:00:19,720 --> 02:00:22,600
Speaker 1: They do, and they're going to be adding two dudes

2258
02:00:22,640 --> 02:00:25,840
Speaker 1: to their defense probably this week in Carlos Dunlap and

2259
02:00:25,920 --> 02:00:30,040
Speaker 1: in Jamal Adams, two guys that both could figure in

2260
02:00:30,120 --> 02:00:33,520
Speaker 1: helping with their pass rush, which I don't know if

2261
02:00:33,560 --> 02:00:35,560
Speaker 1: we would say has been lacking, but it hasn't been

2262
02:00:35,640 --> 02:00:38,480
Speaker 1: up to their standard for sure, and so you wonder

2263
02:00:38,520 --> 02:00:40,480
Speaker 1: what kind of shot in the arm that could give

2264
02:00:41,080 --> 02:00:43,920
Speaker 1: their pass rush. But I also wanted to, you know,

2265
02:00:43,960 --> 02:00:46,920
Speaker 1: he mentioned converting on third down. That's something the Bills

2266
02:00:46,920 --> 02:00:49,080
Speaker 1: have done better than anybody in the league this year

2267
02:00:49,360 --> 02:00:52,760
Speaker 1: with a fifty one point six percent conversion rate. My

2268
02:00:52,920 --> 02:00:54,960
Speaker 1: concern though, Maddie and I know we talked about this

2269
02:00:55,000 --> 02:00:57,400
Speaker 1: because we were getting ready for the Bills Field Pass

2270
02:00:57,480 --> 02:01:00,560
Speaker 1: Show that we run on all of our streaming platforms

2271
02:01:00,800 --> 02:01:04,920
Speaker 1: at about twelve ten, twelve fifteen on game day. Red

2272
02:01:05,040 --> 02:01:07,800
Speaker 1: zone is where I want to see the Bills have

2273
02:01:07,920 --> 02:01:11,160
Speaker 1: an uptick in their performance, and it was better last week.

2274
02:01:11,440 --> 02:01:14,920
Speaker 1: They were three or four score touchdowns on three of

2275
02:01:14,960 --> 02:01:17,760
Speaker 1: their four red zone trips, all on the ground two

2276
02:01:17,960 --> 02:01:21,760
Speaker 1: which I think was another encouraging sign because up until

2277
02:01:21,880 --> 02:01:25,440
Speaker 1: last week, really the only person that showed any propensity

2278
02:01:25,480 --> 02:01:27,800
Speaker 1: to score on the ground was either Josh running it

2279
02:01:27,880 --> 02:01:30,640
Speaker 1: in or one of those end around plays. You know.

2280
02:01:30,680 --> 02:01:34,120
Speaker 1: Isaiah McKenzie had that jet sweep out to the right

2281
02:01:34,120 --> 02:01:38,920
Speaker 1: side for three from three yards out in the previous

2282
02:01:39,080 --> 02:01:43,280
Speaker 1: home game. The Bills had one running back touchdown right

2283
02:01:43,480 --> 02:01:47,040
Speaker 1: before coming into that game. Yeah, so that brings their

2284
02:01:47,080 --> 02:01:52,200
Speaker 1: total two three running back touchdowns all season. So showing

2285
02:01:52,240 --> 02:01:54,080
Speaker 1: that on film I think is going to help them

2286
02:01:54,160 --> 02:01:56,280
Speaker 1: at least be a little bit more unpredictable in the

2287
02:01:56,320 --> 02:01:59,240
Speaker 1: red zone. And they had been doing really well through

2288
02:01:59,280 --> 02:02:00,880
Speaker 1: the first four of five weeks in the red zone.

2289
02:02:00,880 --> 02:02:03,520
Speaker 1: They were like twelve or thirteen, and then they kind

2290
02:02:03,520 --> 02:02:06,200
Speaker 1: of had that drop off when the scoring wasn't what

2291
02:02:06,280 --> 02:02:09,200
Speaker 1: it had been. They scored sixteen points, seventeen points, eighteen

2292
02:02:09,240 --> 02:02:12,200
Speaker 1: points in three straight games, lost two of those games,

2293
02:02:12,440 --> 02:02:15,320
Speaker 1: and that's kind of where their red zone touchdown efficiency

2294
02:02:15,720 --> 02:02:19,000
Speaker 1: kind of fell off a cliff. Now, they're still thirteenth

2295
02:02:19,000 --> 02:02:23,080
Speaker 1: in the league in red zone touchdown efficiency, but they're

2296
02:02:23,640 --> 02:02:26,320
Speaker 1: way behind what Seattle does at a league leading eighty

2297
02:02:26,320 --> 02:02:29,720
Speaker 1: eight percent conversion. So when they get down there. They've

2298
02:02:29,760 --> 02:02:32,000
Speaker 1: got a cash in this week. I mean, I don't

2299
02:02:32,000 --> 02:02:35,520
Speaker 1: think there's any question they've got a Really they may

2300
02:02:35,560 --> 02:02:37,800
Speaker 1: have to score touchdowns on all well, like you said

2301
02:02:37,800 --> 02:02:39,520
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the show, field goals are crapped

2302
02:02:39,520 --> 02:02:42,440
Speaker 1: this week. Yeah, and they probably are in terms of

2303
02:02:42,440 --> 02:02:44,560
Speaker 1: trying to get a win against a team that scores

2304
02:02:45,120 --> 02:02:49,120
Speaker 1: at the rate that this team does. Stefen Diggs. Okay,

2305
02:02:49,600 --> 02:02:52,440
Speaker 1: everybody's talking about DK Metcalf and Tyler Locke, and we

2306
02:02:52,520 --> 02:02:56,400
Speaker 1: understand why they've been enormously productive in that high powered offense.

2307
02:02:56,440 --> 02:02:59,000
Speaker 1: But oh, by the way, Stefen Diggs is having a

2308
02:02:59,000 --> 02:03:02,280
Speaker 1: pretty damn good year UM. Leading the AFC in receptions,

2309
02:03:02,280 --> 02:03:05,480
Speaker 1: he's right there at the top and receiving yards UM.

2310
02:03:05,680 --> 02:03:09,520
Speaker 1: But of all things that were asked of Stefan yesterday,

2311
02:03:09,720 --> 02:03:12,840
Speaker 1: someone wanted to get his take on what he thought

2312
02:03:12,920 --> 02:03:16,680
Speaker 1: about DK Metcalf's chasdown of Buddha Baker in that Arizona

2313
02:03:16,720 --> 02:03:19,480
Speaker 1: game when he prevented a pick six from happening to

2314
02:03:19,600 --> 02:03:23,480
Speaker 1: his quarterback. So here was Stefan's take on DK's chase

2315
02:03:23,560 --> 02:03:27,120
Speaker 1: down of Buddha Baker. I don't miss any football, so

2316
02:03:27,160 --> 02:03:29,680
Speaker 1: I was watching the game and when I first, uh,

2317
02:03:30,320 --> 02:03:32,360
Speaker 1: I kind of it. It was so like a like

2318
02:03:32,400 --> 02:03:34,280
Speaker 1: a wild view. And when he took off, when I

2319
02:03:34,320 --> 02:03:36,280
Speaker 1: was like, he about to catch him? Yeah, yeah, he

2320
02:03:36,720 --> 02:03:39,560
Speaker 1: commenced it early that he was running with conviction that

2321
02:03:39,600 --> 02:03:41,080
Speaker 1: he was He knew he was gonna catch him. But

2322
02:03:41,480 --> 02:03:43,800
Speaker 1: Buddha Baker isn't slow either, so it kind of gave

2323
02:03:43,840 --> 02:03:46,640
Speaker 1: you to test that part of like running for your

2324
02:03:46,720 --> 02:03:48,880
Speaker 1: quarterback and when things don't have to go as planning,

2325
02:03:49,320 --> 02:03:51,120
Speaker 1: trying to get trying to get the guy down and

2326
02:03:51,200 --> 02:03:53,280
Speaker 1: make a play for him. So that I feel like

2327
02:03:53,320 --> 02:03:55,240
Speaker 1: that that play was one of the big plays in

2328
02:03:55,280 --> 02:03:57,040
Speaker 1: the game because they didn't score in the drive and

2329
02:03:57,040 --> 02:03:59,320
Speaker 1: they got three points. They didn't score and kind of

2330
02:03:59,320 --> 02:04:02,680
Speaker 1: shipped the moment certainly in the beginning. I don't think

2331
02:04:02,680 --> 02:04:03,920
Speaker 1: they want it. They didn't win. At the end, I

2332
02:04:03,920 --> 02:04:07,840
Speaker 1: don't think so, But then it dancally. I thought it

2333
02:04:07,880 --> 02:04:11,880
Speaker 1: was an interesting perspective that he brought to that play.

2334
02:04:11,920 --> 02:04:15,240
Speaker 1: He kind of saw it from a receiver's perspective, and

2335
02:04:15,720 --> 02:04:19,720
Speaker 1: how much respect you have for your quarterback, Like my

2336
02:04:19,840 --> 02:04:22,360
Speaker 1: quarterback just got picked when we looked like we were

2337
02:04:22,400 --> 02:04:25,160
Speaker 1: going in for a score. I don't want my quarterback

2338
02:04:25,160 --> 02:04:27,760
Speaker 1: to have a pick six on his resume. I'm gonna

2339
02:04:27,800 --> 02:04:30,120
Speaker 1: go get this guy. Like I thought that was that

2340
02:04:30,240 --> 02:04:32,400
Speaker 1: was a perspective that I that had not even entered

2341
02:04:32,440 --> 02:04:35,600
Speaker 1: my mind. No, I didn't think about that at all

2342
02:04:35,600 --> 02:04:37,600
Speaker 1: when I was watching this play. It was more just like,

2343
02:04:37,640 --> 02:04:41,480
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, d cam Atcalf looks like a mountain

2344
02:04:41,520 --> 02:04:44,640
Speaker 1: man turned into a transformer on that play. Essentially like

2345
02:04:44,680 --> 02:04:47,600
Speaker 1: he was Optimist prime and he was you know what

2346
02:04:47,640 --> 02:04:50,920
Speaker 1: I mean, Like that's how big he looked. Yeah, going

2347
02:04:51,400 --> 02:04:56,160
Speaker 1: up next to Buddha Baker, absolutely insane, just how large

2348
02:04:56,480 --> 02:04:59,120
Speaker 1: d came Metcalf looks, which just how much ground he

2349
02:04:59,160 --> 02:05:01,520
Speaker 1: was able to cover in that short of time. Of

2350
02:05:01,520 --> 02:05:04,040
Speaker 1: course we know he's super fast, but being able to

2351
02:05:04,040 --> 02:05:06,960
Speaker 1: see it like down an entire football field fast. You

2352
02:05:06,960 --> 02:05:08,960
Speaker 1: don't get to see that on every play when he

2353
02:05:09,000 --> 02:05:12,400
Speaker 1: makes a catch, But watching him chase down Buddha Baker,

2354
02:05:12,440 --> 02:05:15,480
Speaker 1: it's almost like Buddha Baker's taking three steps for every

2355
02:05:15,520 --> 02:05:18,680
Speaker 1: one of DK. Basically like if I was going to

2356
02:05:18,760 --> 02:05:21,520
Speaker 1: run and if Tremaine Edmonds was going to try and

2357
02:05:21,560 --> 02:05:23,760
Speaker 1: catch up with me. Not saying that I'm even close

2358
02:05:23,800 --> 02:05:26,560
Speaker 1: to being as fast as Buddha Baker, but I'm way shorter,

2359
02:05:26,800 --> 02:05:30,000
Speaker 1: and so the stride you and me would have to

2360
02:05:30,000 --> 02:05:33,000
Speaker 1: take about six steps for every one of his. We

2361
02:05:33,040 --> 02:05:35,080
Speaker 1: would have no chance. I don't care if we're a

2362
02:05:35,080 --> 02:05:37,440
Speaker 1: bunch of jack rabbits, We're not out. Just because of

2363
02:05:37,480 --> 02:05:40,640
Speaker 1: the ground he can cover with one stride, I would guess,

2364
02:05:41,640 --> 02:05:44,480
Speaker 1: and I'm just guessing here, but I would guess his

2365
02:05:44,600 --> 02:05:48,320
Speaker 1: stride length because he's six four two thirty eight and

2366
02:05:48,400 --> 02:05:51,080
Speaker 1: he's almost all legs. Like if you look at him,

2367
02:05:52,040 --> 02:05:53,840
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, he's got an upper body, but he

2368
02:05:53,880 --> 02:05:57,840
Speaker 1: doesn't have a super long torso. He's a lot of lips. Yeah,

2369
02:05:57,840 --> 02:06:00,560
Speaker 1: his hips sits so high when you're standing next to him.

2370
02:06:00,600 --> 02:06:03,360
Speaker 1: I mean he's almost all I mean, he's got a torso,

2371
02:06:03,440 --> 02:06:06,040
Speaker 1: but his legs are long. I mean I would bet

2372
02:06:06,040 --> 02:06:08,200
Speaker 1: the end seam on his pants or like forty inches

2373
02:06:10,480 --> 02:06:15,120
Speaker 1: at full stretch. I would guess his stride length has

2374
02:06:15,160 --> 02:06:21,200
Speaker 1: got to be about eight to nine feet. Like let's

2375
02:06:21,240 --> 02:06:23,160
Speaker 1: think about that for a second. Like when he's at

2376
02:06:23,200 --> 02:06:28,120
Speaker 1: full tilt, he's probably covering eight nine feet a stride.

2377
02:06:28,360 --> 02:06:34,160
Speaker 1: Like that's just that's like three yards a stride. Who's

2378
02:06:34,200 --> 02:06:39,880
Speaker 1: catching that guy? So I'm fascinated to see Trey and

2379
02:06:40,000 --> 02:06:41,920
Speaker 1: him matching up. I mean, it may not be the

2380
02:06:41,920 --> 02:06:43,600
Speaker 1: whole game because you got worried about the guy on

2381
02:06:43,640 --> 02:06:45,480
Speaker 1: the other side too. I don't I don't know if

2382
02:06:45,480 --> 02:06:48,160
Speaker 1: he's gonna follow because their top two receivers are so good,

2383
02:06:48,160 --> 02:06:51,400
Speaker 1: you probably can't do it. But I'm gonna be I

2384
02:06:51,520 --> 02:06:54,200
Speaker 1: might not be watching anything else when the Seattle offense

2385
02:06:54,320 --> 02:06:55,800
Speaker 1: is on the field. I might just be watching that

2386
02:06:56,040 --> 02:06:58,200
Speaker 1: the whole game because it's that good. I think it

2387
02:06:58,200 --> 02:07:01,879
Speaker 1: could be that good. Yeah, it'll be a great matchup.

2388
02:07:01,920 --> 02:07:04,000
Speaker 1: I think it'll be more by committee. You see how

2389
02:07:04,040 --> 02:07:06,320
Speaker 1: our secondary can do against him, because, like you said,

2390
02:07:06,680 --> 02:07:10,400
Speaker 1: Sanchez DK Metcalf, it's also Tyler Lockett. And the thing

2391
02:07:10,440 --> 02:07:12,320
Speaker 1: that makes it hard with those two is they're so

2392
02:07:12,440 --> 02:07:16,240
Speaker 1: different too as receivers. It's not like you have the

2393
02:07:16,280 --> 02:07:19,120
Speaker 1: perfect makeup of one and it's also the same for

2394
02:07:19,240 --> 02:07:21,120
Speaker 1: the other. You know, you have to scheme up two

2395
02:07:21,160 --> 02:07:23,320
Speaker 1: different game plans with how you're going to stop each one.

2396
02:07:23,400 --> 02:07:25,760
Speaker 1: And we were just watching some highlights our MSG viewers

2397
02:07:25,760 --> 02:07:29,280
Speaker 1: were as well of you know Metcalf so far this season,

2398
02:07:29,440 --> 02:07:31,360
Speaker 1: and I just watched him come off the line against

2399
02:07:31,360 --> 02:07:34,600
Speaker 1: the San Francisco defensive back and the defensive back tried

2400
02:07:34,600 --> 02:07:36,760
Speaker 1: to jam him, you know, a yard or two from

2401
02:07:36,760 --> 02:07:39,440
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage there, and he just put his

2402
02:07:39,560 --> 02:07:41,440
Speaker 1: hand in the middle of his chest and threw him

2403
02:07:41,480 --> 02:07:45,480
Speaker 1: on the ground. So you know, usually in turn, oh

2404
02:07:45,520 --> 02:07:49,000
Speaker 1: my gosh, usually in terms of the different things you

2405
02:07:49,040 --> 02:07:51,720
Speaker 1: can do against a big receiver, he's a big target,

2406
02:07:51,880 --> 02:07:55,160
Speaker 1: you know. So sometimes if you have a good physical

2407
02:07:55,240 --> 02:07:58,800
Speaker 1: corner on your roster, you say, okay, get into his chest,

2408
02:07:59,400 --> 02:08:01,680
Speaker 1: slow him down so we can't get a clean release,

2409
02:08:02,040 --> 02:08:05,200
Speaker 1: and that can screw up the timing of the passing game. Well,

2410
02:08:05,240 --> 02:08:07,720
Speaker 1: that's San Francisco defensive back just tried to do that

2411
02:08:08,120 --> 02:08:10,840
Speaker 1: and with one arm he just shoved him on to

2412
02:08:10,960 --> 02:08:13,360
Speaker 1: the ground and went about his merry way on his

2413
02:08:13,440 --> 02:08:17,600
Speaker 1: pass route for that play. Like, good lord man, he's big.

2414
02:08:20,760 --> 02:08:23,560
Speaker 1: Multiple times, he's going to take more than one person

2415
02:08:23,600 --> 02:08:26,440
Speaker 1: to bring him down. He's a freak for sure, Okay.

2416
02:08:26,440 --> 02:08:30,560
Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs also was asked about where he thought the

2417
02:08:30,640 --> 02:08:34,240
Speaker 1: offense was here at the season's midway point, and I

2418
02:08:34,280 --> 02:08:37,840
Speaker 1: thought he had a pretty honest assessment of where he

2419
02:08:37,880 --> 02:08:41,520
Speaker 1: thinks the offense is. Here's what Stefan said, Like, we're

2420
02:08:41,560 --> 02:08:43,640
Speaker 1: not in a not in the bastpot. We're not in

2421
02:08:43,680 --> 02:08:45,080
Speaker 1: the good spot lot. We can do a lot of

2422
02:08:45,120 --> 02:08:47,720
Speaker 1: things well, we can be, we canna be a lot better,

2423
02:08:48,080 --> 02:08:50,560
Speaker 1: as we all know, especially myself. I'm as far as

2424
02:08:50,560 --> 02:08:53,240
Speaker 1: by executing attention to detail. We continue to you know,

2425
02:08:53,400 --> 02:08:56,400
Speaker 1: craft it kind of be uh be every day. Every

2426
02:08:56,440 --> 02:08:58,800
Speaker 1: day's out for it. But I'm not gonna save me

2427
02:08:58,840 --> 02:09:00,040
Speaker 1: in the guest. We're not seeing me the bad. But

2428
02:09:00,120 --> 02:09:03,360
Speaker 1: we got a long ways ago and far that special

2429
02:09:03,400 --> 02:09:05,880
Speaker 1: oppetentcial you never know, because we still kind of perform

2430
02:09:05,960 --> 02:09:08,560
Speaker 1: better in the rezone and cut down on a lot

2431
02:09:08,600 --> 02:09:12,240
Speaker 1: of penalties. So just trying to work through, to work

2432
02:09:12,280 --> 02:09:13,880
Speaker 1: through the ground, you know, kind of like the good

2433
02:09:13,880 --> 02:09:15,280
Speaker 1: in the vast gonna be good in the mad just

2434
02:09:15,320 --> 02:09:17,880
Speaker 1: kind of worked through it. So I thought he was

2435
02:09:17,880 --> 02:09:21,920
Speaker 1: pretty honest there, like, and he is a perfectionist. I

2436
02:09:21,960 --> 02:09:23,920
Speaker 1: don't think there's any question about that. And that's why

2437
02:09:23,920 --> 02:09:25,400
Speaker 1: he's as good a player as he is in this

2438
02:09:25,480 --> 02:09:28,240
Speaker 1: league because at no point in his career has he

2439
02:09:28,320 --> 02:09:31,760
Speaker 1: ever arrested on his physical ability. He has always been

2440
02:09:31,800 --> 02:09:35,480
Speaker 1: dedicated to his craft. He's just as big about the

2441
02:09:35,520 --> 02:09:37,520
Speaker 1: mental aspects of the game as he is about the

2442
02:09:37,560 --> 02:09:40,440
Speaker 1: physical and you know, the results are on his career

2443
02:09:40,480 --> 02:09:43,280
Speaker 1: stat sheet, and he's having a career season this year.

2444
02:09:45,360 --> 02:09:48,120
Speaker 1: So I was encouraged because I think he's not alone

2445
02:09:48,120 --> 02:09:50,040
Speaker 1: in that assessment. I think there's other players on this

2446
02:09:50,120 --> 02:09:53,640
Speaker 1: offense that know that there's still work to be done here.

2447
02:09:53,680 --> 02:09:56,840
Speaker 1: They haven't got all figured out at all. I like

2448
02:09:56,920 --> 02:10:00,760
Speaker 1: how he pointed to red zone efficiency and penalties because,

2449
02:10:01,000 --> 02:10:04,080
Speaker 1: like we've talked about already today, I think that's gonna

2450
02:10:04,080 --> 02:10:07,760
Speaker 1: be key in this game on Sunday. We've already talked

2451
02:10:07,800 --> 02:10:10,760
Speaker 1: about red zone efficiency. We've talked about penalties a little bit.

2452
02:10:10,840 --> 02:10:14,120
Speaker 1: I don't think you can give up any yards against

2453
02:10:14,120 --> 02:10:18,200
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. You can't have those stupid presteps pre snap

2454
02:10:18,200 --> 02:10:23,680
Speaker 1: penalties that we've had time to time, because these drives

2455
02:10:23,760 --> 02:10:27,280
Speaker 1: they're gonna be long. You want every inch that you

2456
02:10:27,320 --> 02:10:29,960
Speaker 1: can get. Yeah, don't get behind the sticks with pre

2457
02:10:30,080 --> 02:10:33,400
Speaker 1: snap penalties on offense, and don't give them free yards

2458
02:10:34,040 --> 02:10:39,560
Speaker 1: or god forbid free conversions with pre snap penalties on defense, Like,

2459
02:10:39,680 --> 02:10:44,760
Speaker 1: don't be jumping off sides. You know, I pass interference

2460
02:10:44,800 --> 02:10:49,280
Speaker 1: may happen because you gotta be physical, especially with bedcalf,

2461
02:10:49,920 --> 02:10:52,960
Speaker 1: so there may be some unfortunate calls that happen there.

2462
02:10:53,000 --> 02:10:56,000
Speaker 1: But if it's because of effort, I'm not gonna, right,

2463
02:10:56,200 --> 02:10:58,400
Speaker 1: you know, start climbing up the walls because of that.

2464
02:10:58,480 --> 02:11:01,720
Speaker 1: It's the pre snap stuff, the unforced stuff, that's where

2465
02:11:01,760 --> 02:11:04,000
Speaker 1: they got to really be disciplined because you can't you

2466
02:11:04,040 --> 02:11:06,680
Speaker 1: can't afford to hand this team yards in any way,

2467
02:11:06,720 --> 02:11:09,480
Speaker 1: shape or form, because it's like it's like I said

2468
02:11:09,480 --> 02:11:14,800
Speaker 1: about the Patriots all those years. Tom Brady is probably

2469
02:11:14,840 --> 02:11:19,400
Speaker 1: the best ever at making opponents pay for their mistakes

2470
02:11:20,080 --> 02:11:23,640
Speaker 1: than maybe any other quarterback I've ever seen. Russell Wilson's

2471
02:11:23,680 --> 02:11:28,360
Speaker 1: not far off. You make a mistake or misstep, or

2472
02:11:28,400 --> 02:11:32,960
Speaker 1: you're not efficient in defending them, or you make some

2473
02:11:33,080 --> 02:11:36,480
Speaker 1: cardinal error and coverage, he will make you pay ninety

2474
02:11:36,520 --> 02:11:38,880
Speaker 1: nine times out of a hundred. He is the next

2475
02:11:38,920 --> 02:11:41,120
Speaker 1: best thing to Tom Brady in terms of being a

2476
02:11:41,280 --> 02:11:44,080
Speaker 1: make you pay for your mistakes quarterback. And that's why

2477
02:11:44,080 --> 02:11:47,000
Speaker 1: the Seahawks are as successful as they are on offense. Okay,

2478
02:11:47,000 --> 02:11:49,600
Speaker 1: we have to take a break. One more segment to go,

2479
02:11:50,160 --> 02:11:53,440
Speaker 1: and it's the educational segment. People, It's where we find

2480
02:11:53,480 --> 02:11:56,560
Speaker 1: out what we have learned from today's show. Stay tuned

2481
02:11:56,560 --> 02:11:58,360
Speaker 1: for that We're back with it in a minute. Here

2482
02:11:58,400 --> 02:12:01,200
Speaker 1: on One Bill's Live, presented by to Health, it's Buffalo

2483
02:12:01,240 --> 02:12:17,840
Speaker 1: Bills Radio time for what have we learned from today's show?

2484
02:12:18,000 --> 02:12:20,960
Speaker 1: Brought to you by Skyworks, the official construction equipment rental

2485
02:12:21,000 --> 02:12:23,600
Speaker 1: company of the Buffalo Bills, and based on the tweet

2486
02:12:23,600 --> 02:12:25,400
Speaker 1: sheet today, most of you just want to win the

2487
02:12:25,480 --> 02:12:28,760
Speaker 1: dang game on Sunday against the Seahawks. There's something else

2488
02:12:28,800 --> 02:12:32,800
Speaker 1: we learned. During the break, Mattie pointed me toward DK

2489
02:12:33,000 --> 02:12:37,880
Speaker 1: Metcalf's Twitter handle and was saying how he was telling

2490
02:12:37,920 --> 02:12:41,440
Speaker 1: somebody my name's not DJ Metcalf, which was funny. But

2491
02:12:41,520 --> 02:12:45,080
Speaker 1: then I was looking and DK Metcalf has been retweeting.

2492
02:12:45,920 --> 02:12:47,960
Speaker 1: This has got to be for motivation for this week.

2493
02:12:48,600 --> 02:12:51,600
Speaker 1: All of the naysayers on social media from all the

2494
02:12:51,600 --> 02:12:54,760
Speaker 1: way back during the twenty nineteen draft that said all

2495
02:12:54,800 --> 02:12:56,400
Speaker 1: this guy can do is we run fast in a

2496
02:12:56,480 --> 02:13:00,960
Speaker 1: straight line. He has even retweeted some Bills fans who

2497
02:13:01,160 --> 02:13:05,840
Speaker 1: said not so nice things about him leading up to

2498
02:13:05,880 --> 02:13:09,800
Speaker 1: the twenty nineteen draft. One Bills fan said, running really

2499
02:13:09,800 --> 02:13:11,800
Speaker 1: fast in a straight line isn't indicative of how a

2500
02:13:11,800 --> 02:13:13,880
Speaker 1: player will do in the NFL. If the Bills draft

2501
02:13:13,920 --> 02:13:16,440
Speaker 1: this kid based on his forty time, they deserve to

2502
02:13:16,480 --> 02:13:19,280
Speaker 1: continue to be terrible. A star receiver doesn't turn this

2503
02:13:19,360 --> 02:13:24,440
Speaker 1: franchise around depth and fundamentals due so, DK metcalf is

2504
02:13:24,480 --> 02:13:27,920
Speaker 1: fishing around social media looking for motivation from fans with

2505
02:13:28,000 --> 02:13:30,080
Speaker 1: hot takes that told him he wasn't going to be

2506
02:13:30,160 --> 02:13:34,440
Speaker 1: anything in the NFL, including some Bills fans. Yikes. I

2507
02:13:34,480 --> 02:13:36,680
Speaker 1: don't want him to have any more motivation than he

2508
02:13:36,760 --> 02:13:41,160
Speaker 1: probably already has to beat the Bills, so right, I

2509
02:13:41,160 --> 02:13:44,160
Speaker 1: don't like that. Maddie. Thanks for helping us out today.

2510
02:13:44,200 --> 02:13:46,920
Speaker 1: We appreciate it. Maddie glab helping us out here. On

02:13:52,320 --> 02:13:55,560
Speaker 1: out of the side of his mouth. We'll have Lorenzo Alexander,
