Hey, 13 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: the Bills to me look like a super Bowl team. 14 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 1: I'm not saying they're going for sure. I know you 15 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: picked the Browns, but they have everything you need in 16 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: my opinion, to get there. This is a really tall 17 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: order this weekend. Where you guys do the show. I'm 18 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,839 Speaker 1: up in the press box.

Actually, I'm in my mobile Hunday Texans Radio 21 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: Home studio, and you might hear the vander Kid to 22 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: chime in.

So are you 24 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: in the broadcast booth? Where are you? No? I'm up 25 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: where I work every day in the press box. We 26 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: can't work anymore in the media room, so we do 27 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: interviews down there, and then we come up and work 28 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,119 Speaker 1: in the press box. And I'm the last one here 29 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: every day, and it's kind of nice. I work up 30 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: in the at a table where I can look at 31 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: across to the practice bubble, and I could see the 32 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: rain coming in, and I could see the Galleria Greenway Plaza. 33 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: It's great place. I might just start staying up here 34 00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: if it wasn't so damn cold. I'm crazy. Well, tell 35 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien you're up there. He'll get Wait. Wait, okay, 36 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: don't worry about that. Sorry that I'm not worried about 37 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien finding out if I'm up here. I'm just 38 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: kidding general, Okay, I'm telling you right now, the Texans 39 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: win on Sunday. You have to tell me in us 40 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: how that happens. Well, I'm already looking ahead to the 41 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: next game against New England when the rookie quarterbacks play, 42 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 1: and that'll be a little more fair. I'm not even 43 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: thinking about this one because I think Bills are gonna 44 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: win big. They're sixteen at a half point favorite. They've 45 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: blown out in Miami and Washington in the last two games. 46 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: Miami won ten games last year, Washington won his division, 47 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: and Josh Allen is playing great their running game. While 48 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: they do not have one back, they can count on 49 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: their average one hundred and twenty seven yards a game, 50 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: which makes them leave one of the league leaders. So 51 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: you know they're on a roll. They were thirteen and 52 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: three last year. It is amazing to me the direction 53 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: that the Bills and the Jicksons have gone since the 54 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 1: wildcard game right here at the RG Stadium after the 55 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 1: two nineteen season. And what do Jacksons want to see? 56 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: Of course, they'd like to win. They want to see 57 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: Davis Mills show some improvement. I did a column this week. 58 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: Mills is playing better than all the other rookie starters. 59 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: Taking ahead of him now. One reason he's played six quarters. 60 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: They played three games except justin Fills, but justin Fills 61 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 1: look horrendous against the Browns, and Mills look pretty good. 62 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: Because the Jacksons did a great job against Miles Garrett 63 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: and Jadeveon Clowney. It's like it's like the Bears didn't 64 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: even watch that tape. And so I, you know, I 65 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: didn't expect much from Mills. It would help if they 66 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: could run. But when you think about how bad the 67 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: running game has been with him, and he's got one 68 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: receiver and Brandon Cooks, you guys know that Cooks is 69 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: on a face for one hundred thirty He catches an 70 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: eighteen twenty five yards. You know that he is averaging 71 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: eight catches ane hundred and thirty two yards in his 72 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: last five games, and he has more yards through three 73 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: games than any receiver in Texans history. And there have 74 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: been two who were pretty good. And as Tim Kelly 75 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: told us today, it's fun coming up with a plan 76 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: for Cooks knowing that the defense is going to focus 77 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: on him. So Brandon Cooks has been great. He and 78 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: the receivers work after practice every day with Davis Mills, 79 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: and that's part of being a leader. And I can't 80 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: wait every game. I want to see a little more 81 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: Mills I don't know him. I've interviewed him now two 82 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: or three times. But the people who know him, they 83 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: respect him, they like him, and they want to see 84 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: him do well. He's a good guy, and they understand 85 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: the limitations of playing starting eleven games in college and 86 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: then coming to the NFL and having to play before 87 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 1: they wanted him to John, do you expect them to 88 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: try to throw the backs and tight ends more, try 89 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 1: to get some easy passes for Mills, especially since it 90 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: might be it might be a factor in helping out 91 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: the running game, which has been struggling. I thought last 92 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: week they throw say four yard passes on first down 93 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: some You know, Farrell Brown was a big weapon against Jacksonville. 94 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: Then he got hurt and one of his injuries was 95 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,799 Speaker 1: a shoulder. Now he hasn't done squat the last two games. 96 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: So I would do whatever it took to get him 97 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: the ball, assuming he's healthy enough to catch it, because 98 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: you guys know he can get yards after the catch. 99 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 1: You can throw him a short pass. You could throw 100 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 1: another screen like they did that worked so well at Cleveland. 101 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: But right now, the line didn't do a good job 102 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: of blocking and the backs didn't do a good job 103 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: of running and one more game like this and I'm 104 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 1: going to start a campaign for Scottie Phillips and be 105 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 1: the only one. John kind of a talking point seeming 106 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: the last couple of days with both David Culley and 107 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: with Tim Kelly today was the progress of Titus Howard 108 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 1: playing guard and listening to coach and to coach they 109 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: felt like, look, there's been progress, but there's more sort 110 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: of left on the table. What a in your thoughts 111 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: about Titus making that transition from right tackle over the 112 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: left guard next to Laramie. I thought he's a better 113 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 1: right tackle than he has a left guard. If they 114 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: thought he's a better left guard, that's where he'd been 115 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: playing in his career. You know, they tried him there early, 116 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: but I understand they traded for Marcus Cannon. They want 117 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: to get Marcus Cannon on the field. He's played pretty well. 118 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: The run blocking in the last game was terrible. They 119 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,799 Speaker 1: just got you know, smothered and the game was close 120 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: enough where they could still run it. You know, that's 121 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: the thing about Davis Mills. They he helped him get 122 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: within twenty four and twenty one in the fourth quarter Cleveland. 123 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: He helped him get within seventeen to nine in the 124 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: fourth quarter against the Panthers. Now, he didn't played great, 125 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: he didn't even played well, but he played better than 126 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: a lot of people expected, and he did put them 127 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: in a position where they could have won the game. 128 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: And I believe, and I'm guessing you guys do too, 129 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: if Tyrod Taylor had played against the Browns the way 130 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: he was playing, they would have won that game. And 131 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: I think if Tyrod Taylor had played against Carolina, they 132 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: could have won that game too. Now we're not gonna know, 133 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: of course, but the thing you want to see, the 134 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: line has got to play better. And I know they're new, 135 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: and I know Titus is playing a new position, but 136 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: he just right now, I think he's struggling. Coaches are 137 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: always going to say the right thing. Laramy Tunsil played 138 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: great against Cleveland, then I thought he took a back 139 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: step against the Panthers. A lot of that had to 140 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: do with who was going against and Carolina's defense is 141 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: pretty good. John, what do you think of Josh Allen. 142 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: It's a good story that he's really upped his game. 143 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: Last year was so much better than the year before. 144 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: This year. Obviously, they lost to the Steelers on opening Day. 145 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: That was a clunky game for them. They've won two 146 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: straight since. It's not like they've really been rhythmic offensively 147 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 1: as much as they want to, but man, they've scored 148 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: a lot of points anyway, and it seems to be working. 149 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: You know. One of the best things for the Bills, 150 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: Sean McDermott's had his coordinators the whole time. How many 151 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: teams that go thirteen and three are able to keep 152 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: both coordinators? And Leslie Frasier Cores came. He was the 153 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: finalist with David Culley. They're really good friends. They coached 154 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: together two different teams, and they were both here at 155 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,959 Speaker 1: one point. They all got multiple both of them got 156 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: multiple zooms and in interviews in Houston, and so I 157 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: think I thought Frasier would get the job because he 158 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: had NFL experience as a head coach, and I was 159 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 1: surprised when Cully got it. But Culley was Josh Allen's 160 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 1: quarterback coach when he's a rookie. And I wrote a 161 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: column yesterday, I went for all the people that think 162 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: Davis Mills, they already know Davis Mills will never cut 163 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: it as a starter, and I went back and looked 164 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 1: at Josh Allen, came off the bench in his first 165 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: game and then started the second game. Guess who had 166 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: better stats, Davis Mills. And so Allen's turned out to 167 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 1: be pretty good. He had ten touchdowns thirteen interceptions as 168 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: a rookie. I remember a lot of people were killing him. 169 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: He wasn't accurate and junior college or college, he'll never 170 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 1: be accurate. And they've done a great job. But he's 171 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: benefited from having the same coaches and the same system. 172 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: And think about all the young quarterbacks who come in 173 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 1: and they changed their head coaches, their coordinators, their quarterback coach, 174 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 1: the system, and it's tough for them to adjust to that. 175 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: But Josh Allen, he is a premier quarterback and at 176 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: six to five in two third seven, he's built like 177 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: a tight end and he runs better than some running backs. 178 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: So they had trouble with Sam Darnell, who is a 179 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: very underrated runner, and they may have Trout. They're gonna 180 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: have trouble with Josh Hallan too, and Justin Reid's gonna 181 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: be back, Camu Gruge Hill is going to be back. 182 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: They helped Terrence Mitchell be back. Those especially Read and 183 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: Gruge Hill. Think of the big plays they made those 184 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: first two games, and then you take them out of 185 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: this defense, There's no way it wasn't gonna hurt. So 186 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: trying to go to Buffalo and be respectable. Having those 187 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: guys back will help immensely, John, If you can't expend 188 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: on your thought there about Justin Reid in particular, I mean, 189 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: coma Gruger Hill has made some nice plays. Terrence Mitchell 190 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: obviously is the team's number one corner. I guess as 191 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: I think about it, and you don't have any of 192 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 1: those three guys to go against the Carolina Panthers, and 193 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: that was a huge loss. But Justin Reid in particular, 194 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: he's in the final year of his rookie contract. I mean, 195 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: there's a lot on the line for Justin and he's 196 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: really through the first couple of games, really living up 197 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 1: to it. We missed him at the end of the 198 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: Browns game and then missing through week three. Can I 199 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: expend on your thoughts if you don't mind about Justin 200 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: Reid and his impact on this team and on this 201 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: defense in particular. He's off to the best start of 202 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: his career. He's got to stay healthy, you know, he 203 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: tell us in training camp. You know they all tell us, 204 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 1: well most of them, I'm not thinking about the contract. 205 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: Can you imagine how your family, your friends are all 206 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 1: talking about the contract. We're all talking about the contract. 207 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 1: I'll tell you if I had a chance to make 208 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: millions and millions of dollars, I'd damn sure be thinking 209 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: about it twenty four to seven. But you've got to 210 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: be able to compartmentalize and for him to make the 211 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: big plays that he did early, it's tremendous. He can 212 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: play up, he can play back. The reason Whynnie Johnson 213 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: wasn't starting is he can't play up and back. Eric 214 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: Murray can play up and back. You know those coaches 215 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: love they love love at that. What's the word. I'm 216 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: looking for? A versatility and and so that's something that 217 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: he does well. He can play back, he can run 218 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: as he's a safety's coach. Greg Jackson told us he's 219 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: faster than his brothers. He coached his brother and justin hits. 220 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: You know, he's a physical guy that gets him in 221 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: trouble a lot, but he's crucial to this defense. And 222 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: they didn't. They flushed the pass rush, flush Darnel out 223 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 1: of the pocket a lot but then they missed tackles, 224 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: or they didn't play very disciplined when Darnald got out 225 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: of the pocket and he scored two touchdowns and had 226 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: a long run called back. They've got to be more 227 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: disciplined with Josh Allen. You know, Josh Allen and I 228 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: recognize this team mostly once you got here last year, 229 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: and really, if you were here two or three years ago, 230 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 1: you don't recognize anybody. I'm surprised Jeffy Clowney knew who 231 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: anybody was. But Justin Reid has been here now a starter, 232 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: and and plus I want him to resign him because 233 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: he's the best interview on the team. John, What about 234 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: these Buffalo Bills and their home? They want that new 235 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 1: stadium the Pagoulas or they're saying they're committed to staying 236 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: in Buffalo, and obviously you'd love to see the team 237 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: stay there in original AFL franchise. What do you make 238 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: of the situation up there in Western New York? Roger 239 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: Goodell will never let the Bills leave. He grew up 240 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 1: seventy miles from there. He is a diehard Bills fan. 241 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: He got his first job in the NFL as a 242 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: pr assistant with the Bills. You know you're talking about 243 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: being old. I'd cover an NFL five years when he 244 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: was a snot nosed pr assistant for the Bills, and 245 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: so he won't let it happen. Now. The problem is 246 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: what if he retires and this could go on another 247 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: five years. Nobody knows how long Boggil will be there, 248 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: but if he's not the commissioner, anything's possible. We find 249 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: out today gil Enston is going to sell her teams 250 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: and donate all the money to charity, and because that's 251 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: what the will stipulates, and that seems pretty simple, but 252 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: what they want to make sure of it says anybody 253 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: buys it has to keep it there. Well, you know 254 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: what they want to do. They want another renovation and 255 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: a lease on the super Dome. So as someone who 256 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: went through this for years, I'm just so glad I 257 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: don't have to do it again, and I feel sorry 258 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: for Buffalo. But the bottom line is, if you want 259 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: to keep your team, you gotta pay general. When I 260 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: think about teams moving and moving to different places, obviously 261 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: we had the big moves a few years ago when 262 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: the Rams move out to LA Then we had the 263 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: Raiders move in to Las Vegas. The Chargers move from 264 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: San Diego over to LA and that's I think been 265 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: the most most recent movement. I think a movement I 266 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: think of the city is Saint Louis And now we've 267 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: got this lawsuit that's taking place and it feels like 268 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: it's flying way under the the radar for seemingly something 269 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: really important that maybe we're just not all paying attention 270 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: to what's happening in St. Louis. And with this lawsuit 271 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: against the NFL, do you think anything comes of this 272 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: for the city of St. Louis in any way, shape 273 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: or former. What do you think comes out of this 274 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 1: lawsuit that's happening with St. Louis in the NFL? Based 275 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: on what's happened so far, Stan Cronky will have to 276 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: open his books and sold some other owners they would 277 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: rather get try and think what's the worst thing you 278 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: could do? One time I said something I knew Bob 279 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 1: McNair didn't want to do, and I said he'd rather 280 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: become a Democrat than do this. Well, in Stan Cronky's case, 281 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: I'm not exactly sure what it is, but do you 282 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: think he wants to to open his books? Think of 283 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: the money he's paying attorneys, and so far they're losing 284 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: their long way away. They can reach a settlement, But 285 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: what does Saint Louis want? Do they want fifty million? 286 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: One hundred million? Do they want some kind of guarantee 287 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: for another team? But if they've got him by the footballs, 288 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: they're going to be able to control a lot. I 289 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: still think because the NFL doesn't lose very often and 290 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: they've got the most expensive attorneys money can buy, that 291 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: there's no way anybody's going to be able to look 292 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: at the books of Stan Cronkie or any other NFL owner. 293 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: I think Jerry Jones is one of them. They're trying 294 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 1: to see his books too, you know. I gold Jared's 295 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: gonna let that happen. Probably not. Let's go to the 296 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:45,479 Speaker 1: Chicago Bears situation, as they want a new place too, 297 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: and they have gotten their hands on some land that 298 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: could be a possibility in where Arlington Heights is it, 299 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: and obviously Soldier Field iconic location. I'll call it an 300 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: iconic location. It was an iconic stadium, but they kind 301 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: of ruined it anyway. What are your thoughts on their situation? General, 302 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: well Mark and John they did ruin it. I'll never forget. 303 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,719 Speaker 1: I was covering a playoff game there with the Bears, 304 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: was either the Packers and the Rams. And as soon 305 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: as the game was over, they came into press box 306 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: and made an announcement. We had to be out in 307 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: an hour because the press box was coming down because 308 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 1: they were starting that renovation immediately. Remember they redid the 309 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,239 Speaker 1: stadium on the inside. It is the smallest stadium in 310 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: the NFL. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles. 311 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 1: And when these owners see these other owners getting what 312 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: they're getting, they want sun. Bud Adams was not trying 313 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: to move the Oilers until he headed the finance committee 314 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: and he saw some of the sweetheart deals other owners 315 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: were getting on their leases. And he had a terrible 316 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: lease with the company that ran the astros, that the 317 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: company that ran the dome. And so that's what's going 318 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: on up there in Chicago. Now they're talking about in 319 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:06,360 Speaker 1: Arlington Heights. It's like thirty five forty miles away. It's 320 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: like it's like the forty nine Ers they play in 321 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: Santa Clara. That's like putting the Texans in Galveston. What anybody, 322 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: how many people would want to drive down there every Sunday. 323 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: What about a primetime game? And that's what they're thinking 324 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: about doing. And let's face it, owners are not sentimental 325 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: when you're talking about billions of dollars in these franchises 326 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: now are worth multiple billions of dollars, and they say 327 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: it's only amount of time before one of them will 328 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: be worth at least ten billion dollars with a TV 329 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 1: deal and all the gambling and streaming rights from companies 330 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 1: like Amazon. So you know, I know people wouldn't like it, 331 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: you know, but they should have thought about that when 332 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 1: they did that last renovation instead of doing it so 333 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: haphazardly and playing only one season at the University of Illinois. John, 334 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: there's a game happening this weekend on Sunday night. I 335 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 1: don't know if you knew about this, but a guy 336 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: named Tom Brady is playing for a different team than 337 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 1: the New England Patriots. Is former team and they're gonna 338 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 1: meet up on Sunday night up in New England. I'll 339 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: be honest I thought, I honestly thought there would be 340 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: more Patriots Buccaneers talk this week. And I don't know 341 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: if both sides have just handled it well. And that's 342 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,719 Speaker 1: why we haven't heard it. There's I don't know. I 343 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: thought there'd be more Bucks Patriots talk that there's been 344 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: Patriots talk, but not Bucks Patriots talk. What do you 345 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: think about this game? And is it, as some people 346 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: have called it, the most important regular season game of 347 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 1: all time? Important? No? An important game these playoff implications. 348 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: What you have is a great team and a bad team. 349 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 1: The Patriots are bad. I got a rookie quarterback who's 350 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: beating the Jets. If the Patriots were better, to me, 351 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 1: it would be a better game. It's a great situation. 352 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: But most of the talk is coming from Seth Wickersham's 353 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 1: book about the Patriots. And so this game it should 354 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: be a blowout because number one, the Bucks lost. How 355 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: many times Brady lose back to back games, so you 356 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: know he wants to win because it's New England, and 357 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: he wants to win because they just got beat by 358 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: the Rams. So it's I've read today all the money 359 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: being bad is going on the Patriots side because of 360 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: those circumstances, and I would love to be there. I 361 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: saw where you can get a bad ticket for three 362 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 1: hundred fifty dollars. Who wouldn't like to win? His history 363 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: for three to fifty. I was asked on my San 364 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: Antonio station while ago, why I didn't go over there 365 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 1: from Buffalo. I said, well, I can't a fourteen yere 366 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: and fifty, but it would be a great thing to 367 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 1: be at if you were a Patriots fan. But it's 368 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: going to be ugly, all right, John. Around the division, 369 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: you have the cults visiting Miami. Now. Brissette played for 370 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Not so hot coming off the bench two 371 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: weeks ago, but last week against the Raiders could have 372 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: should have won. The game went deep into overtime. And 373 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 1: here are the Coats with Carson Wentz and his ankles 374 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: taking on the Dolphins in South Florida. What do you 375 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 1: make of this? One? Last time the Colts win OH 376 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: three was two eleven. They drafted Andrew Luck with the 377 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 1: first overall pick, and I think Miami's gonna win this 378 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: game Indianapolis. When Nelson's out, he had to be carved 379 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: off with an ankle injury. They got vaccination controversy going on. 380 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 1: They've got wins with two injured ankles, and he's not 381 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: playing very well, and they're not running the ball like 382 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: they were expected to. With Jonathan Taylor. I think t 383 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 1: Y Hilton's still out. He hadn't played this year. The 384 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 1: coach just have some problems, and frank Reich has not 385 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: been in this situation. Now. If they win that game, 386 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: then maybe they'll be able to turn it around. Remember 387 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: three or four year it might have been frank Reich's 388 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: first year. They had a terrible early part of the 389 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: season and then they rallied and behind Andrew Luck and 390 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: I think they won a wildcard game. Can't remember where 391 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,199 Speaker 1: it was when they were an underdog, or maybe it 392 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: was a season couple of seasons before that. But they've 393 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: been down before and bounced back. But the AFC's too good, 394 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: I mean, asc is tough, and I can't wait to 395 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: see how it all plays out the playoff picture because 396 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: they're just so many good teams. John Four years ago, 397 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: on a Thursday night, a rookie quarterback from Clemson knocked 398 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: off the Cincinnati Bengals for his first win as a starter. Well, tonight, 399 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback from Clemson on a Thursday night takes 400 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: on the Bengals. Can Trevor Lawrence get his first win 401 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,360 Speaker 1: as a starting quarterback for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Well, it's 402 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: the Bengals, and anybody's capable of beating the Bengals, but 403 00:22:54,560 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: they looked really good beating the Steelers in Pittsburgh the mess. 404 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 1: The most interesting thing about this game to me is 405 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: you have the first overall pick of the last two drafts, 406 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 1: and Joe Burrow was playing really well last year until 407 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: he blew out his knee. And now they're two and one, 408 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 1: and Trevor Lawrence is on a pace for forty interceptions, 409 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 1: which would shatter Peyton Manning's record of twenty eight set 410 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety eight. Trevor Lawrence is nine turnovers. He's 411 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,360 Speaker 1: leading the league in turnovers as well. But does anybody 412 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 1: thinking he can't play. No, of course people believe he's 413 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: gonna play. And if he bounces back and has a 414 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: good game it doesn't turn it over, then the legend 415 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: will be born. But right now I'm going with Joe Burrow. 416 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 1: And who is Joe burrows very first college coach? Irban Myers. Yes, 417 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: it all comes full circle. It all comes back to 418 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: Urban Meyer, and I hope he loses. Good. Yes, I 419 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: did say that a lot that I hope he loses. Sorry, 420 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: all right, now, it's fine, general, what do you have 421 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 1: going out of the Houston Chronicle for us, I've got 422 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: to Colin tomorrow about brand and Cooks has sustained excellence 423 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: and Brooks Cabina is going to have a big story 424 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: about coaches going forward on fourth Down on Sunday, the 425 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 1: mentality of coaches today compared to the way coaches used 426 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: to be, and how most of them let it all 427 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: hang out.

I know, and I 540 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 1: know in the Harris family, Uh, you know, fears can 541 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: sometimes overtake um, you know, the thought that things can 542 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: be done. So yeah, I mean embrace it, um because yeah, 543 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: why not. I mean that's the way I look at it. 544 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: But yeah, I could.

These are all young guys. The inches are everywhere, 552 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: which you can we fight for? That inch would work? 553 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: I keep you know what? All right, So here's the deal. Uh, 554 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 1: Vader kid had to give every year in elementary then 555 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: middle school had to give a speech, right, and it's 556 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: a competition and the Pecinos speech. I got a text 557 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: of it and I edited it so you could do 558 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: it clean enough, right, And he did it one year 559 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: and he got to the finals and it was really good. 560 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: And it's great because like in my life, you know, 561 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: he's plays he's an old man and the speech older guy. Anyway. Yeah, yeah, 562 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: I've chased away anyone who's ever loved me. You know. 563 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 1: It's just so great. Uh, that speech and very inspirational, 564 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: by the way, I want to go by, Johny. You're 565 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 1: ready to play. Oh, it's so good. It's any given 566 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 1: Sunday holds up fine enough, Okay, very watchable movie, no 567 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: matter what generation you are. Look, I told Jay mcdevin, 568 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: who is our digital guru, digital broadcast guru, I said, listen, 569 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: watched broadcast news from the eighties. Was I think it 570 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: one best picture? He watched it. He was like, Nah, 571 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: I can't recommend movies to these, to these young folks anymore. Okay, 572 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 1: here we go. You ready to play who's better? Let's 573 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: go who's better? Johnny? We all know Tom Brady is 574 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: the best. I don't think there's any argument. Who's number two. 575 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 1: Who's the second greatest quarterback ever? Brady's retired the trophy. 576 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: Forget about it, He's gone. He's the best. Who's number two? 577 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 1: It pains me to say tough one, isn't it pains? Oh? No, 578 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 1: it pains me to say this. But if I don't 579 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: say brock Os Wilder, then I'm gonna be cheating myself. 580 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 1: The first name that came to mind was Joe Montana, 581 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 1: and I don't hate saying that Joe would probably be 582 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,959 Speaker 1: the one I would pick. And I always look at 583 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: it like this, and you know, I feel how I 584 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: feel about this. If I gotta win one game, I'm 585 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: gonna go win one game. Which guy do I want? 586 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,320 Speaker 1: All things considered, knowing that the game can go a 587 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: million different ways, which guy do I want? Do I 588 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: want to come out of the gates hot if I 589 00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: need to come back in the end, if I need 590 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: to be h you know, was staying kind of a 591 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: run by the other team. Montana to me was the 592 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: is the kind of guy that could withstand all of that. 593 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 1: And I think Montana ends up for me being being next. 594 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: I know he's only one one championship, and I you know, 595 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: the whole quarterback wins thing whatever, But I would argue 596 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 1: that there may be no more talented quarterback throwing the 597 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: football ever than Aaron Rodgers. I think Aaron Rodgers might 598 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,359 Speaker 1: be the most talented throwing quarterback over the Shutter's career. 599 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: Now we might that might change with Patrick Mahomes. I 600 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: was watching that game the other day against the Chargers, No, 601 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 1: not to Chargers, who the Chiefs playing Week two the Ravens. 602 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: That's Sunday night came and they're like three or four 603 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:10,839 Speaker 1: throws where I'm like, wait a second, did he just wait? 604 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: It's his left foot over there and his right foot 605 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 1: over there and his arms down there, and he threw 606 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: that ball. Wait what he does things that are just unbelievable. 607 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. The number of throws he's made in his 608 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: career where you just go, I don't know who else 609 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: makes that throw again? One championship? Do you hold that 610 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: against him? But I would go Joe Montan, Aaron Rodgers, 611 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: And then I would say probably Elway because lay I 612 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 1: think if Elway had come up in this era or 613 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: you know, earlier where he could have they could have 614 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 1: used his running skills, his dual threat ability that much more. 615 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 1: He would have been unstoppable. I mean, these formations formations. 616 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 1: He would be devastated. You'd have to respect the run. Yeah, 617 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: like you do a lot of these guys. Now, I 618 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,240 Speaker 1: can't agree more. And you know, for folks, for again, 619 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: for young folks, going back to look at Montana's numbers, 620 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 1: that won't tell you the whole story. The entire league 621 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 1: was different than completion percentages were lower. Rules were different 622 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 1: as far as what the defensive backs could do with 623 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 1: the past catchers, anybody covering anybody. They didn't throw it 624 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 1: as much just because it was the ethic of run 625 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: the football. Now it evolved over time. Look at the 626 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: completion percentages from the seventies. I mean, look at Rogers, 627 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 1: Stallback and all the great quarterbacks in the seventies, Bradshaw, Stallback, 628 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 1: all those guys, they're below sixty percent. You know today 629 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:38,399 Speaker 1: you cannot play if you're below sixty percent. Anyway, let's 630 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: get to the next one. I agree it. By the way, 631 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 1: I would put Montana second and always right there too. 632 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:46,879 Speaker 1: And Rogers is unbelievable, all right, who's better? Better coaching job? 633 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: So far as far as transitioning an organization, the culture, 634 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: the performance, the results. Sean McDermott or Mike Vrabel better 635 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 1: coaching job so far mc McDermott because and I that 636 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 1: when when Rabel got to the Titans, the Titans I 637 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:16,919 Speaker 1: felt like were talented enough. The Bills I don't think 638 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,320 Speaker 1: were in that first year with Sean mcdermot's twenty seventeen 639 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 1: Uh you know, Tyrod's still the quarterback, but they didn't 640 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,319 Speaker 1: have all the pieces. But they brought in a couple 641 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 1: of free agent signees. Micah Hyde, you know, Jordan Poyer 642 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: was a guy just that had come over and you 643 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 1: didn't really know much about it. He played corner Oregon State. 644 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 1: I loved him, and then they said he moved to safety. 645 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,839 Speaker 1: Th Oh, okay, this is good. So he takes that team. 646 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 1: In twenty seventeen, they get to the playoffs for the 647 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 1: first time ever, and I knew exactly what they were doing. 648 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 1: They wanted to establish a culture winning, but they weren't 649 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:50,320 Speaker 1: gonna go to the next level, especially when Tyrod was 650 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 1: then I think out after twenty seventeen, I knew they 651 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 1: would fall off. But in that twenty eighteenth year, they 652 00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 1: drafted Tremaine Edmonds, they drafted Josh Allen, and they just 653 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 1: continue to build peace upon piece upon piece to that team. 654 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: And it's always been drafting well and then making one move, 655 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,280 Speaker 1: either a free agent signee like they did with Micah 656 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 1: High in twenty seventeen, or going out and getting Stefon 657 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 1: Diggs in the trade in twenty twenty. They've had just 658 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 1: one move each year where you go, Wow, Okay, they 659 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: really they've really built this thing the right way. I 660 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,840 Speaker 1: just feel like Tennessee's built on a house of sand. Basically, 661 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: I feel like they rely on Derrick Henry. I feel 662 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: like what they've done with Ryan Tannehill, I give them 663 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 1: the utmost credit for that. But the defense Rabel's specialty. 664 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: What has that done. Their defense has stunk. I mean honestly, 665 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,839 Speaker 1: their defense stunk. And I give them credit for getting 666 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: an NFC Championship chip game. They beat the Ravens in 667 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 1: a tremendous divisional playoff round game. They did a great 668 00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:00,320 Speaker 1: job that night defensively overall, that has not been the 669 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: case last year. That group was dreadful and it's why 670 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: the Ravens then won in a revenge playoff game in Tennessee. 671 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:11,319 Speaker 1: I think McDermott has continued to take that team up. 672 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 1: It's like the consistent volume change when you're listening to 673 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 1: the radio. You just kind of keep taking a dialogue 674 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 1: going up. Vrabel has been like you're going back and forth. 675 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 1: It's like up downtown, up up downtown. McDermott has continued 676 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: to go up, up, up, up up, and so there's 677 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 1: more volatility, I think with what Vrabel's done in Tennessee 678 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 1: versus what McDermott's done, uh in Buffalo. So I give 679 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 1: thumbs up to Sean McDermott. All right, and plus you 680 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: you pointed this sound. I mean, Tennessee was coming off 681 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: a playoff appearance when Rabel took the job. Right, they 682 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: beat Kansas City at Arrowhead with Alex Smith and then 683 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,839 Speaker 1: lost in the divisional round under Mike mclarkey. They made 684 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 1: the change. And he's been there for three years and 685 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,280 Speaker 1: plus this year, so this is his fourth season. Okay, 686 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:04,320 Speaker 1: who's better better? I hate to use the word shaky, 687 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: but let's do it better shaky three and oh team 688 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 1: the Raiders or the Panthers. I say shaky because there's 689 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 1: some question marks about these teams being three and oh, 690 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:17,360 Speaker 1: and it could be fair, we'll see, but you know, 691 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 1: three no one's no one's throwing a parade for three 692 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: and oz. Sean McVay said, no one remembers who was 693 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: three at ozho after the season. You want to go 694 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,319 Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl, you want to win the Super Bowl, right, 695 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: So three and oh Raiders Panthers. Who's better? Better? I mean, 696 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,319 Speaker 1: but it's best to start that way, that's for sure. 697 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:43,720 Speaker 1: I shakey man. You know the Panthers, I've beaten Zach Wilson, rookie, 698 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:48,280 Speaker 1: Jamis Winston played worse than a rookie, and then Davis 699 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 1: Mills a rookie. Granted three wins, I get it, but 700 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:57,240 Speaker 1: they end up losing Christian McCaffrey in the game. Last Thursday. 701 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:02,439 Speaker 1: The Raiders beat the Ravens at home. They then beat 702 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 1: the Steelers on the road, which I don't know now 703 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 1: that you look at it. I mean, the Bengals wanted 704 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: to beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh. I don't know how 705 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: how big a win that really is. I just think 706 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 1: from a circumstantial standpoint, Las Vegas playing Las Vegas on 707 00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: a Monday night and then playing an East Coast game 708 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 1: on the following Sunday and winning both is really impative, 709 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:27,720 Speaker 1: really impressive. Um. And then they win last week, holding 710 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:31,840 Speaker 1: off the Dolphins, and they had every every opportunity to 711 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 1: just go into a shell like okay, you know it's 712 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,399 Speaker 1: we don't have it today, and yet Derek Carr kept 713 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: kept pulling them back, and I think that's gonna end 714 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:43,359 Speaker 1: up being the difference. But but the shakier one I'm 715 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:48,319 Speaker 1: gonna say is the Raiders because they they very well 716 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: could be one in two, very well could be the 717 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 1: Panthers were three, and I mean, like, there's there's no 718 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 1: doubt in any of those three reasons. Rights on a 719 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 1: neutral field. But sweet these who that's a great question. 720 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 1: Is McCaffrey healthy. No, that's a big question healthy right now. 721 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 1: If McCaffrey were healthy, i'd say Panthers on neutral field. 722 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 1: Of McCaffrey's not healthy, I'd give it to the Raiders. 723 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 1: Derek Carr's playing amazing. I wish people would. I wish 724 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 1: people would just get off Derek Carr's back, because this 725 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 1: dude is one of the top ten quarterbacks in the 726 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 1: league and he's playing like a top five quarterback right now. 727 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 1: Just got off his back. This dude's making some big 728 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: time ballplays and those receivers are all getting in sync 729 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 1: with one another, and it's really kind of I enjoyed 730 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 1: watching them play against a Dolphins the other day. I 731 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:35,760 Speaker 1: can't believe I'm saying that, but I did. I actually 732 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 1: enjoyed watching the play against Dolphins. It was a fun 733 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 1: game to watch. It was. And didn't Bruten say Jacobs 734 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 1: is really questionable? I think he used that word really Anyway, 735 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,320 Speaker 1: First I saw a report that he's back at practice. 736 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,279 Speaker 1: That I thought. Then I saw that Bruten said he 737 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 1: was really questionable. Who knows? All right? Coming up? I've 738 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,400 Speaker 1: got one more Who's better?

Just 835 00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 1: look at a map and you'll see why. It's pretty 836 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 1: obvious that it's the western part of the state. You know, 837 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 1: you're thinking everything's upstate, not why Yeah, it's up a 838 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:03,319 Speaker 1: bit from New York, but it's way west. And if 839 00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:06,840 Speaker 1: you think about Lake Placid, where the Miracle on ice happened, 840 00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 1: and everything that's way north of New York and way 841 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:15,359 Speaker 1: east of Buffalo northeast. That is my geography lesson for today, Johnny. Yeah, 842 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 1: and I don't know if that much time and upstate 843 00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:21,919 Speaker 1: New York, no, I haven't. I went to Cooperstown once. 844 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:23,960 Speaker 1: That was fun. I don't know if that's considered upstate 845 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 1: in New York. I don't know, but that was really fun. 846 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:28,359 Speaker 1: Going to the Baseball of Fame my senior year when 847 00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 1: I was in college. That was a blast, just going 848 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 1: there and walking through the Baseball Fame and it's it's 849 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:37,960 Speaker 1: funny because I've been to Baseball Fame, Basketball Fame, and 850 00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:39,279 Speaker 1: never been to the Football Hall of Fame, and it 851 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:41,640 Speaker 1: just kills me that I've not been to can So 852 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,160 Speaker 1: I want to get there one day, and maybe when 853 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,320 Speaker 1: eighty goes in Hall of Fame, then maybe that'll be 854 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:47,880 Speaker 1: the time that I go for the first time. But 855 00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 1: I've never I've never been there, but I hope and 856 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:55,520 Speaker 1: pray that well. I was gonna say, if the weather 857 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 1: in Lake Placid is like the weather in Buffalo, they 858 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,319 Speaker 1: could get wet, just like we might on Sunday, which 859 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 1: is not gonna be fun. Oh what's the chance of rain? 860 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:07,359 Speaker 1: I thought it was looking pretty good earlier in the week, 861 00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:12,960 Speaker 1: so it's seventy during the game. Now it's been moving. 862 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 1: It's been moving and changing a little bit. But I 863 00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:18,480 Speaker 1: got the rain, You're ready to go. I'm gonna get 864 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:20,440 Speaker 1: my little zip block baggy to put my mic in. 865 00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be ready to go. I'll be fine. I'll 866 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 1: handle it. You gotta deal with it. I'm cool with that. 867 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:28,040 Speaker 1: But just got to be prepared and hopefully today when 868 00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:29,840 Speaker 1: there was a little bit of rain, I know the 869 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:31,200 Speaker 1: Texas re inside for a little bit of bet I 870 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 1: think they went outside and hopefully they threw some wet 871 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:36,440 Speaker 1: balls around because throwing a wet football is not easy, 872 00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 1: and I know that was one thing that Peyton Manning 873 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:41,800 Speaker 1: used to do a lot of, was throwing wet footballs around. 874 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:45,719 Speaker 1: You used to play in that kind of weather. Hey, 875 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 1: injury report limited participation today Terrence Mitchell. So he's back 876 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:53,360 Speaker 1: from concussion illness. Now this is just part of the 877 00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:55,600 Speaker 1: ramp up, So we'll see how it goes for tomorrow 878 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 1: and we'll get the final report heading into the weekend. 879 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 1: Justin Reid though with the knee limited as he was yesterday, 880 00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:08,120 Speaker 1: but I guess tracking in the right direction, you would say, hopefully, 881 00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:12,400 Speaker 1: and full participation. Justin britt with a thigh commu Gruge 882 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:15,480 Speaker 1: Hill with the knee that's great, but not practicing M 883 00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,879 Speaker 1: and Dola still Ross Blacklock illness, Scottie Phillips illness, that's 884 00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:23,440 Speaker 1: too bad, Garrett Wallow illness. That's new. So we'll see 885 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 1: how it goes here, Johnny. But to get gruge Hill 886 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,400 Speaker 1: and readback would be huge, and Mitchell as well. So 887 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:30,440 Speaker 1: give me one of the keys. Give me a tease 888 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:34,480 Speaker 1: to the keys for tomorrow. Well, you want a defense 889 00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 1: one offensive one? I think I want an offensive one. 890 00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 1: I gotta move the ball against his top four defense. 891 00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:46,359 Speaker 1: They're top four and just about every major category defensively, yeah, 892 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 1: so I think offensively one of the One of the 893 00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:54,359 Speaker 1: keys is you've got to you've got to disrupt their 894 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:56,880 Speaker 1: continuity in some way, shape or form. So you've got 895 00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 1: to show them something that they haven't seen because it's 896 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:02,920 Speaker 1: has been together. They seemingly have seen it all. But 897 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:04,759 Speaker 1: you got to be able to change things up, and 898 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,200 Speaker 1: you've got to aligne in something that they haven't seen, 899 00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,799 Speaker 1: and maybe you get them to miscommunicate because they're all 900 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:12,120 Speaker 1: looking to other like, wait a second, we have seen 901 00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:14,040 Speaker 1: this on film what we do and then boom, you 902 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 1: hit him with something, and all of a sudden you 903 00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 1: got two safeties over on the side when they should 904 00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:20,200 Speaker 1: have a corner over there, and you can take advantage 905 00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:22,400 Speaker 1: of that. Their continuity is a big, big deal in 906 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 1: this game to me, and so I think you've got 907 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:28,879 Speaker 1: to show them an unscouted look or two that they're 908 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:31,439 Speaker 1: completely not ready for and see if you can't steal 909 00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,240 Speaker 1: a big first down because of it, or get somebody 910 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 1: loose deep down the field because of it. Their continuity 911 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 1: and these guys have all been together for so long. 912 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,840 Speaker 1: I mentioned it the other day. They have seventeen starters 913 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 1: from that playoff game. Now that was just two years ago. 914 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 1: They have seventeen starters left in that playoff game. We 915 00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:50,359 Speaker 1: have five. That's a live starters. All right. We gotta 916 00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 1: wrap it up there. That's the show, all right, Thanks Johnny. 917 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,200 Speaker 1: That's the show for tonight.
