Speaker 2: Yeah, this is And did you see have you seen

17
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 2: the forecast for Sunday, which, as we know now is

18
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 2: the equivalent of a night game, right because the days

19
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 2: are so short it gets dark at noon?

20
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 3: Uh yes, And it's supposed to be in the teens, yes.

21
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 1: But dry, right, dry, which is good.

22
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 3: Which is yeah, it's a plus. You can live with that.

23
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: But it'll be in the teens. Hopefully there'll be no

24
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: it'll be a little bit like to worry about.

25
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 3: It'll be a little bit like the New England Playoff

26
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 3: game from a few years ago.

27
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: It'll be cold.

28
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 3: It's not that cold, not that cool, but it'll be

29
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: cold but dry, and that's that you can play in that.

30
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, I believe the kickoff temperature for that Perfect Playoff

31
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 2: game in twenty one zero was five five and the

32
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 2: wind with the wind chill, I think it was like

33
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 2: minus six.

34
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 3: I don't like that, so yeah, I'd like I'll sign

35
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 3: up for another game like that with the bills.

36
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: The outcome of the game. Yes, I don't know about

37
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: the weather.

38
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, the four to twenty five things. Still, I'm

39
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 3: still getting it. But the weather today is not indicative of,

40
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,519
Speaker 3: you know, future results.

41
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: Past performance does not guarantee all future results we see. Yeah,

Speaker 1: We're assaulting your character, not the character.

68
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 3: That's exactly right you. There is no university. I would

69
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 3: not attend a university that would have me as a student,

70
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:40,120

00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 3: That would that?

73
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 2: Would you have anything that you're even curious about? I

74
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 2: mean you just learn about it at your leisure. You

75
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 2: wouldn't go to school for it.

76
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 3: Hey, man, that's what Google's for. Just pop on to

77
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 3: find out. Ask the question. The AI is everywhere? Why

78
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 3: do I need you know? Why do I need to

79
00:03:59,400 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 3: know anything?

80
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: Even need?

81
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 3: To this point, I'm talking like I just need to

82
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 3: spell why do right? And I can spell check that.

83
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm the We've already invented the mankind has

84
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 3: invented the last thing we're ever gonna invent, and that's AI.

85
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 3: So that's all we need. Ask it?

86
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 4: Yeah?

87
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:19,119
Speaker 3: Are we fixed?

88
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 5: That?

89
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 6: Is?

90
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 7: That?

91
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 1: Is that what you thought? Is that what you thought

92
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: AI stood for?

93
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 8: Ask it?

94
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 3: Ask it? That's what I stands for. How do we

95
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 3: fix the economy? Well, here's how you do it? And

96
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 3: then there you go to follow instructions.

97
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: You gotta feeling somebody I'll be using that.

98
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 2: Presto Bill's practice updates are presented by Lee Coom your

99
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 2: Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. This is pretty general

100
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 2: in nature because coach chose to be general. Basically, anyone

101
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 2: who missed last week's game, Rasul Douglas, Taylor Rapp, Tamar Hamlin,

102
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 2: along with players who were injured in last week's game.

103
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: Matt Mulano.

104
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 2: Cole Bishop went out with cramp, so he really was

105
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 2: an injured Spencer Brown left and came back. All of

106
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 2: those players are participating in practice in some capacity now.

107
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 2: It is a walkthrough session today as a matter of fact,

108
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 2: it's just wrapping up which has been kind of par

109
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 2: for the course for the last month or so. You

110
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 2: get to the back half of the schedule and the

111
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 2: bodies take a little longer to recover. In most teams

112
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 2: go through the walk through practice on Wednesday to give

113
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 2: bodies an extra day to heal, and then they'll get

114
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 2: two more discernible regular practice Thursday, Friday, and then your

115
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 2: mock game on Saturday. So it's certainly good news that

116
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 2: everybody's participating. We'll have to wait and see what the

117
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 2: actual Wednesday injury report portends and lets us know in

118
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 2: terms of the status of some of these players. Douglas

119
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 2: dealing with a knee injury that forced him from last

120
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 2: week's game or kept him out of last week's game.

121
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,239
Speaker 2: Tailor rap had a shoulder in something else, and DeMar

122
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 2: Hamlin had a shoulder and something else. So and Matt

123
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 2: Malonell left last week's game with a groin injury.

124
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: So we'll see you have to.

125
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 3: Leave the game, it's usually yeah, significant.

126
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 2: Tory Williams left the game, came back. Curtis Samuel is

127
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,359
Speaker 2: dealing with a shoulder injury through the course of that game.

128
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 2: So we'll see where everybody sits when the Wednesday injury

129
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: report is released later this afternoon. If it's released prior

130
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 2: to the time we're off.

131
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: The air, we'll be happy to update you on that.

132
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 2: The other news of the day, Josh Allen has been

133
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 2: named AFC Offensive Player of the Week again, second time

134
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 2: in three weeks, third time in the season, third time

135
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 2: this season. So Allen becomes the ninth quarterback ever to

136
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 2: win an Offensive Player of the Week award fifteen or

137
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 2: more times. His fifteen Player of the Week awards are

138
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 2: the most among any player since entering the NFL in

139
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:03,799
Speaker 2: twenty eighteen. So, having won this three times this season,

140
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:13,239
Speaker 2: he becomes the first quarterback since I believe Tom Brady

141
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 2: to win it at least three times or more in

142
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 2: three seasons or more. So, his three seasons with three

143
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 2: or more Offensive Player of the Week awards are fourth

144
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 2: most by a quarterback in NFL history. They trail only Brady,

145
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 2: who did it in five seasons, Drew Brees, who did

146
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 2: it in four seasons and Pro Football Hall of fameer

147
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 2: Peyton Manning who did it in four seasons three or

148
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 2: more player of the Week awards. Josh has done it

149
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 2: three or more times in three seasons, and I would

150
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 2: anticipate that will change for the better in due course

151
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 2: and he'll be right up there with those Cats sooner

152
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 2: rather than later, perhaps as soon as next season. And

153
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 2: the other cool thing is this marks the eighth time

154
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 2: this season that a Bill's player has been named Player

155
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 2: of the Week. That marks the most in team history

156
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 2: in a single season. And I think it speaks to

157
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 2: what you were just talking about, Steve. This might not

158
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 2: be the most gifted team in terms of pure talent,

159
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: you know, top to bottom, but I think in the

160
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 2: McDermot era, it might.

161
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: Be the best team we have seen. And I think

162
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: these eight Player of the Week awards are a reflection

163
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: of that.

164
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 2: Josh has three of them, but it's a collection of

165
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 2: other players that have won the other five.

166
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 3: I get it too. At the beginning of the season.

167
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 3: It's what we described. Although we were at that point

168
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 3: were that would be the most positive spin we could

169
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 3: put on it, right, I mean, we were thinking, man,

170
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 3: this could be if they come together and they I think,

171
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 3: you know, we thought it's gonna take some time. All

172
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,719
Speaker 3: the new faces didn't know. Well, they got off to

173
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 3: a pretty fast start. They were three and two at

174
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 3: one time, right yep. And then they got it together,

175
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 3: and yeah, we said at the end of it, it might

176
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 3: be the best team I mcdermot's ever fielded hear in Buffalo,

177
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:02,599
Speaker 3: and certainly.

178
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: Certainly better than the one they had last year.

179
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 3: You can make that case. Certainly in the last few years,

180
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 3: twenty twenty was a really good squad and they were

181
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 3: playing at a high level.

182
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: Even the twenty twenty one squad.

183
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 3: Wh that's really good, That's right. So the proof will

184
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 3: be in the pudding at the end of it all.

185
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 3: We don't know, but I'm pretty sure a lot of

186
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 3: Bills fans are pretty happy with the way they're playing

187
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 3: right now.

188
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, So congrats to Josh Allen on another record setting performance.

189
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 2: I mean, there are records broken every single week, and

190
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 2: he might break another one this week here because he

191
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 2: is he is two rushing touchdowns away from setting the

192
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 2: Bills all time rushing touchdown record.

193
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: Yeah. Derman Thomas here.

194
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 2: The Hall of Famer, holds the record with sixty five

195
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 2: Josh currently has sixty four.

196
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 3: And I got some junk here. I can read five

197
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 3: straight seasons with thirty five passing and rushing touchdowns. It's

198
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 3: the longest streak all time. It's the only quarterback in

199
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 3: NFL history with two plus passing tds and two plus

200
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 3: rushing tds in back to back games, the only quarterback

201
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 3: in NFL history to do that in back to back games.

202
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 3: And he did it in Week fourteen and fifteen. Fourteen

203
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 3: passing or rushing touchdown, fourteen passing, rushing or receiving touchdowns

204
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 3: in the last three games with zero sacks, zero fumbles,

205
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 3: and zero interceptions in that span. Same number of seasons,

206
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 3: with twenty five plus passing touchdowns and ten plus rushing touchdowns,

207
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 3: two as the rest of the players in NFL history combined.

208
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,599
Speaker 3: That's Cam Newton in twenty fifteen and Kyler Murray in

209
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 3: twenty twenty.

210
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 1: The only guys that have done that.

211
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 3: They've only done it. No, no, no, yes, he's the

212
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 3: same number of seasons as the rest of the players

213
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 3: in history combined, and that's just two guys, Cam and Kyler.

214
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 3: He did it twice. Sixty four career rushing touchdowns. It's

215
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 3: the second most back quarterback in NFL history to Cam

216
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 3: who's got seventy five.

217
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:47,959
Speaker 1: He'll catch him. He might catch him next year.

218
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, Josh is playing good.

219
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:50,599

Speaker 3: They're great.

250
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 2: Our MSG viewers just saw the fifty two yard pass

251
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 2: in the air that Josh threw last week to Keyon Coleman.

252
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 2: Had traveled fifty two yards in the air and then

253
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 2: Coleman ran another twelve yards to make it a sixty

254
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 2: four yard play. Next Gen Stats put out a post

255
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 2: on social media about that pass. Next Gen Stats has

256
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 2: been around since twenty sixteen. That was the fastest traveling

257
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 2: fifty yard pass in the history of the league since

258
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 2: it's been able to be tracked.

259
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: It covered fifty two yards in two point four to

260
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: seven seconds.

261
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 2: It is the fastest velocity on a fifty yard pass ever,

262
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 2: and he did it on.

263
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: A busted.

264
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 3: It's yeah, so it's uh, he isn't Avengers. It's fun

265
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 3: to watch, you know, he's like he's Captain America.

266
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 9: You know.

267
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 2: Let's quickly rip around the NFL here, because we do

268
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 2: have to get to coach McDermott's comments when he addressed

269
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 2: the media last hour.

270
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 1: Want to rewrack those for you. So around the NFL, presented.

271
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 2: By Kalida Healthy, official healthcare system of the Buffalo Bills.

272
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,119
Speaker 1: Quarterback news.

273
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,079
Speaker 2: Down in Atlanta, they have benched Kirk Cousins. Head coach

274
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 2: Raheem Morris put out a statement yesterday announcing that news.

275
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 2: So rookie quarterback Michael Pennix is going to make his

276
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 2: first NFL start as Atlanta tries to overtake the Tampa

277
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 2: Bay Buccaneers for the division title, as that is probably

278
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: the only path for either of those teams to reach

279
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 2: the postseason the division title in the NFC South, Falcons

280
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 2: are seven and seven. Bucks are eight and six, and

281
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 2: the Falcons, if you're going to start your rookie quarterback,

282
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 2: you do it against the New York Giants, and that's

283
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 2: who they're playing in Atlanta at home this Sunday. Incidentally,

284
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 2: Brian Dables said today that Drew Locke is going to

285
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 2: start at quarterback for the Giants this week in what

286
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 2: has become a lost season for Brian Daboles team. What

287
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 2: do you make of the timing of the decision to

288
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 2: go to Pennis year with your season quite literally on

289
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 2: the line for a postseason birth.

290
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 3: Three to play, You're a game you don't watch the Falcons.

291
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins is he's been a good quarterback his entire career,

292
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 3: surprisingly good for a fourth round draft pick. He was

293
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 3: drafted with RG three way back in the day, and

294
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 3: usurped RG three and became and there was franchise, made

295
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 3: a pile of money, a pile of money with the Commanders,

296
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 3: another pile of money with Commanders, and then when he

297
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 3: became a free agent, went to Minnesota, made a pile

298
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 3: of money with them, and has been good for Minnesota.

299
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 3: Was very good for Minnesota. Not he was good above good.

300
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: He was really good playoff quarterback.

301
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, so he did all of that. Now he goes

302
00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 3: to Atlanta and he in the last four or five

303
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 3: games he's had eight interceptions, zero touchdowns, and then this

304
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 3: last game he threw a touchdown and an interception and

305
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 3: they're benching him at seven and seven because they're trying

306
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 3: to make a push. They're one game behind the Bucks.

307
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, he threw for one hundred and seventeen yards against

308
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 2: the Raiders if without Max Crosby.

309
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 3: And here's the thing, And I was listening to some

310
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 3: analysts and what they said, and they were there. He

311
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 3: made some really poor choices and threw the ball of rung.

312
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 3: But some of the stuff he's doing is stuff a

313
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 3: veteran quarterback like Kirk Cousins shouldn't wouldn't be doing. Now.

314
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 3: I don't know if I don't think a quarterback of

315
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 3: kirk Cousins' experience falls off a cliff mentally physically, they

316
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 3: all do at some point. But he's making choices that

317
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 3: are not making any sense. So I'm I'm looking at you,

318
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 3: Rahee Morris, like what do you doing to this guy

319
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 3: that no other coach along the line of his career

320
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 3: had this guy doing. I mean, he's he's just missing guys.

321
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 10: Guys.

322
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: I'll tell you one thing that's sorely absent from the

323
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: Falcons offense. It's the play action pass game.

324
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 2: And for his entire career, Kirk Cousins has been a

325
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 2: very good play action passer and for some reason, that's right.

326
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 2: They don't want it as part of their office, that's right.

327
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 3: So if so, I'm looking at Rayhee Morrison that staff

328
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 3: will you're not you're not coaching to your strength Yett

329
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 3: to help your Yeah. And it's one thing to bring

330
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 3: him in and say, hey, you got to get us right.

331
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 3: You're a missing piece from last year. Well you got.

332
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 3: You still got to build it around him, yep. You

333
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 3: can't come in and plug him in, especially.

334
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 2: When you're on the hook for another twenty seven million

335
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 2: guaranteed next year.

336
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 3: You've got to coach it around him. And I'm not

337
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 3: saying Kirk Cousins is blameless, but here's the thing they're

338
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 3: putting Michael Pennix in. Are you gonna build it around

339
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 3: him now? Or are you gonna leave him out hanging

340
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 3: out to dry like you did Kirk Cousins. Are you

341
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 3: gonna give him some stuff that he can do well

342
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 3: or you're gonna let him do what you want him

343
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 3: to do?

344
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 8: Right?

345
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 3: I mean that's not the way you coaching enough. If

346
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 3: you want the guy to play well, give let him

347
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:08,360
Speaker 3: do and coach him up and install what he does well,

348
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 3: play action pass is the perfect example of that.

349
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 1: Yep, and don't don't do enough of it.

350
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 3: So am I really optimistic that all of a sudden

351
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 3: they're gonna do that for Mike Pennix? If they do well,

352
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 3: they had an agenda to begin.

353
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: With, Yeah, that would be a tell tales.

354
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 3: But if and I can't believe they're not trying to

355
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 3: do that with Kirk Kusler, it's deliberate. Yeah, So I'm

356
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 3: I'm I'm not.

357
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: You sound very vexed about this.

358
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 3: I am. I feel for Mike Pennix.

359
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 1: Right because he might be set up to fail.

360
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:41,719
Speaker 3: He's just the next victim.

361
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

362
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes was a full participant in practice yesterday with

363
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,720
Speaker 2: the Chiefs, much the same as expected today, so he's

364
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 2: trending toward starting on Saturday, despite a mild high ankle

365
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,159
Speaker 2: sprain suffered in last week's win in Cleveland. The Chiefs

366
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 2: host the Texans on Saturday. Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence, tight

367
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 2: End Evan Ingram each had shoulder surgery earlier this week.

368
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 2: They're expected to be ready for OTAs in the spring.

369
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,400
Speaker 2: Arizona Cardinals signed veteran safety Buddha Baker to a three

370
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 2: year contract extension worth fifty four millions of that all

371
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 2: but ensures that he will finish his career in the desert.

372
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: So good for him. Kind of put the good foot

373
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: forward there.

374
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 2: Let's not forget a year or so ago he had

375
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 2: asked to be traded, that got tabled, and lo and

376
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 2: behold they've made amend. So good for the Cardinals and

377
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 2: Baker on that. The Cleveland Browns are starting Dorian Thompson

378
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 2: Robinson dtr at quarterback for Sunday's road game against the Bengals.

379
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 2: Coach Stefanski bench Jamis Winston late in last week's twenty

380
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,679
Speaker 2: one seven loss to the Kansas City Chiefs after his

381
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:46,880
Speaker 2: third interception of the game.

382
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: Stevie ready for this.

383
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 2: It was Winston's third three interception games since taking over

384
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 2: as a starter for the injured Deshaun Watson in week eight.

385
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 2: He was third three interception game. We always say turnovers

386
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 2: happen in bunches.

387
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they come in truckloads.

388
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 3: For Jamis, you're supposed to you give defenses credit for that.

389
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,880
Speaker 1: Not James.

390
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 2: He asked God to deliver him from pick sixes. He

391
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 2: should have just asked him to deliver him from interceptions.

392
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: Period.

393
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness.

394
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 1: And he has delivered him from interceptions because he won't

395
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: be throwing the ball at all.

396
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 3: He has done it.

397
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: Yes, so God has answered his call.

398
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 3: That's right. Unless we watch practices. He throws him in

399
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 3: practice too, but yes, that and I get it. Listen,

400
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 3: the Browns are going nowhere, and I think when you're

401
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 3: a head coat like Stefanski, this is a move. This

402
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 3: isn't about Jameis Winston and it's not about Dorian Thompson

403
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 3: Robinson either. It's about the other guys on the roster.

404
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 3: You've given him a chance to win.

405
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 2: Former NFL quarterback Mike Vick has accepted a head coaching

406
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 2: job at Norfolk State. He announced it on social media

407
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 2: last night, So congress to him as another former player

408
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 2: becomes a head coach in the college ranks, joining Dion Sanders.

409
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 2: I'm sure there are others, maybe at lower levels of college,

410
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 2: but those are two high profile guys, you know, coaching

411
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 2: some teams. So good luck to those guys. So that

412
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 2: is around the NFL, presented by Colid of Health. We

413
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 2: have to pivot now to head coach Sean McDermot, who

414
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,199
Speaker 2: addressed the media last hour. Let's get his thoughts on

415
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 2: this upcoming divisional matchup the first of the season with

416
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 2: the Patriots here in week sixteen.

417
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 4: Jean, how much different than the.

418
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 11: Jared Mayo papers from the Bill Belijack passions how they're seeing.

419
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:35,440
Speaker 12: The new version Blookers.

420
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,880
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean we respect, you know, this football team,

421
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 9: and I think coach is doing a great job Coach Mayo,

422
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 9: and I remember being in my first year. There's a

423
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 9: lot of things that are new and it's a journey,

424
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 9: right so like it is every year. We have a

425
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 9: ton of respect for this football team.

426
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 13: Thoughts on what you've seen from Dred Mayk so far

427
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 13: and always a rookie is limited, limited exposure.

428
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: But what do you what do you see there? Yeah,

429
00:20:59,200 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: very impressed.

430
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 9: Can see a difference in their team since he's taken over.

431
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 9: And you know, certainly Mobile knows where to go with

432
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 9: the football. You know, just a two dimensional type of quarterback.

433
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 14: You are coming off an emotional win. You deal with

434
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 14: this all the time. You're a big favorite by the odds.

435
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 14: How do you what is your message to the team

436
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 14: to try to avoid a let down, you know, to

437
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 14: try to make it fresh, the fresh message. How do

438
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 14: you how do you what is your.

439
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 9: Message for the team that, Yeah, well, I think you know,

440
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 9: you learn from the past, certainly, that's number one. And

441
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 9: two is I think a winner's mindset, really, a champions

442
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 9: mindset has a certain degree of discipline that goes along

443
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:47,479
Speaker 9: with it when they know what they're after and and

444
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,880
Speaker 9: so that's the type of discipline we have to have

445
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 9: moving forward every week. Every week it's a new challenge.

446
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 9: And and we certainly have a ton of respect for

447
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 9: this football team. They've played really good football, especially since

448
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 9: since the quarterback has taken over.

449
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 5: So you know, we have a ton of.

450
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: Respect for them.

451
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,880
Speaker 9: And most importantly, our mindset has to be right.

452
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 12: About the attacking mentality that the team came out with

453
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 12: on Sunday after the game. How important was that and

454
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 12: how much can that lead to building continue further in

455
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 12: building an identity of this team, to show that you

456
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 12: have of what you're capable of.

457
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, we play a certain way in Buffalo. That's that's

458
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 9: our identity and that that's important to us, and that's

459
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 9: what we work on a practice, that's what we work

460
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 9: on in the days leading up to the game. Uh,

461
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 9: to your point, John, and that's the only way to

462
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 9: play really, So we expect that from ourselves every week.

463
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 13: What did you see from Jabonsall and the group?

464
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 3: He had pample of snaps last week, but just from

465
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 3: start to finish from the show man, what have you

466
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 3: seen from him? Uh?

467
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 9: You know, he's super into the into the process in

468
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,919
Speaker 9: terms of his preparation. That's great to see for a

469
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 9: young player, right that And the staff has done a

470
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 9: good job with him as well, coaches as well as

471
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 9: the development staff and strength and conditioning trainers whatnot. So

472
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 9: it's just really all about bringing a young player along.

473
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,399
Speaker 9: He's he's been out there and as a core special

474
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 9: teams player and then played some defensive snaps for us

475
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 9: this season as well. And just like you know anyone else,

476
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 9: you're trying to see the flashes of ability and then

477
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 9: and then build on those.

478
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 13: You had, you know, beautiful conditions the last two weeks

479
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 13: in LA and indoors the other day. Now the rest

480
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 13: of the way you're going to be out in this

481
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 13: I'm supposed to be really close on you.

482
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:41,360
Speaker 1: How does that?

483
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 13: What do you think is the biggest impact when it's

484
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 13: miserably cold like it's going to be someday on your

485
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,479
Speaker 13: offense because you just scored ninety points basically agdoors. How

486
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 13: does it change with the weather you're probably going to

487
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 13: be facing now the rest of the way.

488
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 9: Yeah, well, if you could tell me exactly the whether

489
00:23:58,880 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 9: we're going to get that would help.

490
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 1: It's look like it's supposed to be fifteen degrees.

491
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 13: How does that affect offensive football?

492
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 7: Right?

493
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean it's it's a it's a real question.

494
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:12,360
Speaker 9: We play here, right, so we live here. Uh, this

495
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 9: is what we embrace playing in Buffalo and playing well

496
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 9: at home. So that's an important part of whether it

497
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 9: was Steve Tasker's teams and Jim Kelly and those and

498
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 9: those offenses Andre Reid Thurman or the twenty twenty four

499
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:36,360
Speaker 9: version of the Buffalo Bills offense. So it's just one

500
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 9: of those things that you got to accept and you

501
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 9: got to figure out early in your early in your

502
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 9: journey that season as a team, knowing that it's coming.

503
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 9: I mean, it's no different for special teams. Right, some

504
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 9: of the new rules and things affect the weather gets

505
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 9: affected or the weather affects some of those things. So

506
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 9: we've been trying, you know, to our best how to

507
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 9: plan for that, even back in training camp, even back

508
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,880
Speaker 9: in the spring, to make sure you know that we're

509
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 9: equipped properly to handle those things along those lines.

510
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 13: Having through running backs knowing the way you've got them

511
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 13: going right now, that's got to give you a little

512
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 13: bit of an advantage, right because you can really dial

513
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 13: up with just a wud anything with those three guys.

514
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 9: Well, it starts with the offensive line. That's where it starts.

515
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 9: So those running backs have been tremendous for us this year.

516
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 9: They all three of them have done a phenomenal job.

517
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 9: It starts at the line of scrimmage, and that's really

518
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,400
Speaker 9: where the game begins every week.

519
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 10: Change is for you and Bobby when you're facing a

520
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,880
Speaker 10: quarterback that you never played before, and is there as

521
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 10: like just from a strategy perspective, you don't have to

522
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 10: give them the details of that. Is there an excitement

523
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 10: when you dive into a player that you never faced before,

524
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 10: and maybe the challenge of figuring it out.

525
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,880
Speaker 9: Yeah, it takes a little bit longer, right as you'd expect.

526
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 9: I mean, even when you come across a new opponent. Overall,

527
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 9: it takes a little bit longer to figure things out,

528
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 9: to really get to know them.

529
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 5: And I think.

530
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 9: That's why sometimes you see I think in baseball. I'm

531
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 9: not a baseball coach, but you know, you see a

532
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 9: new pitcher kind of takes a little bit of time

533
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 9: to get used to. You see him again second time

534
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 9: through the lineup, third time through the lineup, and that's

535
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 9: it's probably similar in this regard where we'll know him

536
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,399
Speaker 9: a little bit better in the second game, in the

537
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 9: third game than we will in the first game. It's

538
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,719
Speaker 9: just kind of I guess how things go, all right.

539
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 2: So that's Bill's head coach, Y'll mcdermoty who addressed the

540
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:32,840

Speaker 1: Tim Horton's the official Coffee of the Buffalo Bills.

553
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 2: All Right, Cole, the feat got real wet last week,

554
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 2: man right in it and against the highest scoring offense

555
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 2: in the NFL.

556
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:25,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure.

557
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 2: You're glad that that was not happening in week one

558
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 2: or two. You'll probably feel a lot better about it

559
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 2: happening in week fifteen. But how did you kind of

560
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,399
Speaker 2: approach the week once it became rather evident that Taylor

561
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,199
Speaker 2: and Damarrow we're going to have a hard time getting

562
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:41,879
Speaker 2: healthy enough to play on Sunday.

563
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 11: Yeah, trying to just you know, state your routine. I mean,

564
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 11: anything could happen any given weeks, so I mean you

565
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 11: could be the next man up and someone in the

566
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 11: very first place basically starting the game. So pretty much

567
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 11: trying to prepare every week while you're starting. I mean

568
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 11: that's kind of been my routine, So sticking with that.

569
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 11: You know, being able to watch film with Micah now

570
00:27:58,040 --> 00:27:59,640
Speaker 11: that he's here has been awesome, so trying to learn

571
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 11: from him. But yeah, just trying to prepare the best.

572
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 2: And and you in most cases, when it doesn't look

573
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 2: like those guys can practice, you're gonna get the benefit

574
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 2: of the rest. But then there's no practice on Thursday.

575
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it was funny.

576
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,439
Speaker 11: I was fortunate to make it up here, so I

577
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 11: was I was one of the few guys I was

578
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:16,400
Speaker 11: up here because.

579
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 4: Well you've got anything, yep, Okay, made it up.

580
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 11: But uh yeah, it's definitely weird without the practice.

581
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,439
Speaker 3: What did you what was different because you got to

582
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 3: start in week five in Houston? How different did you feel?

583
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:28,199
Speaker 3: What was it like?

584
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, it felt a lot more comfortable.

585
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 11: I mean Houston being your first start, obviously your first

586
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 11: NFL started, there's a lot going in your head and everything,

587
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 11: and uh say, just like really locking on the preparation,

588
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 11: like mastering the game plan, being able to study what

589
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 11: the other team's gonna attack you with, and then just

590
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 11: at the end of the day's knowing your job.

591
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, give us an idea you just mentioned. And Micah

592
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 3: gets back in the room and and he's obviously, you know,

593
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 3: got a ton of experience for sure, and he's probably

594
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 3: he's there to like show you, right, I mean, that's

595
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 3: what was some of the things you noticed about watch him.

596
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 3: I mean he's got the right.

597
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, I mean I've asked him as much as

598
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 11: I can to watch film. You know, we're watching on

599
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 11: the off days and things like that a little bit

600
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 11: after meetings, So just trying to pick his brain about

601
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 11: I mean, you played in the same defense for however

602
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 11: many years he was here? Yeah, six seven years a

603
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 11: long that's a long time. I mean I've been here

604
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 11: for you know, six months or whatever it is, And

605
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 11: so trying to learn as much as I can from him.

606
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 4: For sure.

607
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 1: Has it slowed down like has like you know, Yeah.

608
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 4: I mean I'm definitely a lot more comfortable.

609
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 11: That was still my second start, so I'm excited, uh,

610
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 11: you know, depending on what happens the next couple coming weeks.

611
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 11: So just trying to get as many reps as I

612
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 11: can and make most of them.

613
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 12: Yeah.

614
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 2: Your folks, Uh, I'm sure they've taken in some of

615
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 2: the home games here so far this season. What has

616
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 2: been their opinion of what the atmosphere here is like,

617
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 2: maybe compared to going to games out at Utah or

618
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 2: you know, even high school games down in Georgia.

619
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 11: Yeah, they love they love Bill's Mafia. My dad was

620
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 11: pretty excited about it. Yeah, they're always going tailgating stuff,

621
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 11: you know, me and Joe and Recenter friends.

622
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 4: So, yeah, they hang out with his parents a little bit.

623
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 11: They you got a hometown in Yeah, exactly, so they

624
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 11: had a couple of good tailgates for him and everything.

625
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 4: But they love it. They love the games and everything

626
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 4: like that.

627
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, they got indoctrinated pretty quick, right, Yeah. Yeah, it's

628
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: a good way to do it. So tell me this.

629
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 3: You know, you try and I know it's a routine

630
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 3: and you're trying to every game is the same. But

631
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 3: you're going from the Detroit Lions, who's the one seed

632
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 3: in the NFC and they got this the highest scoring

633
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 3: offensive league to a division opponent who's gonna know your

634
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 3: defensive scheme really well, but who hasn't been as productive.

635
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 3: Give me the idea of, you know, the different considerations

636
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 3: you've got in that prep.

637
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 4: Yeah.

638
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 11: I mean, at the end of the day, they're still

639
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 11: an NFL team, they still have NFL players, so like

640
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 11: obviously their record might not be what the lines was,

641
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 11: but they said a stat today like they have howe

642
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 11: many seven games within one score, So I mean they're

643
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 11: right there to you know, have a completely different record.

644
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 11: So being able to prepare for them just like every

645
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 11: other week, it's definitely important.

646
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,160
Speaker 2: Did you I remember in the spring and then in

647
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 2: training camp, media was asking you like, how different is

648
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 2: this defensive system from once you ran in Utah And

649
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 2: if I remember, you said it was completely different, Like

650
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 2: you played a lot of man coverage right and here

651
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 2: it's a lot of zone as. You know, how how

652
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 2: did you decide Because everybody's got to have some kind

653
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 2: of plan, like how am I gonna absorb this and

654
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 2: nail this thing down? So what was your plan going

655
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,719
Speaker 2: into it knowing it was that different?

656
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 11: Yeah, So like OTAs is kind of an intro to everything.

657
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 11: I mean, you obviously have some zooms and stuff before them,

658
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 11: but you can't you can't really get a feel for

659
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 11: it over zoom. So then once you get in person

660
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 11: in OTA's, I mean you get all the basics and

661
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 11: everything and pretty much everything installed.

662
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 4: But not a ton of reps at it because it's

663
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 4: not a ton of time.

664
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 11: So then just that whole time we have off up

665
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 11: until training camp, studying, you know, doing flash cards things

666
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 11: like that, trying to just get everything memorized, and then

667
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 11: coming back for training camp feeling good with it.

668
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 3: It has been you know, obviously Josh was I don't

669
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 3: know if you you probably know Josh was the offense

670
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 3: FC Offensive Player of the Week again watching that guy

671
00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 3: and you you practice against him. I know you're the

672
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 3: look you know sometimes you do the look stuff for

673
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 3: the number one offense, that kind of stuff before he started,

674
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 3: you know, playing all the time, you've seen what the

675
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 3: guy does up close and personally, you get an idea

676
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,440
Speaker 3: of what. You give us an idea this offense. This

677
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 3: offense really seems to be clicking, and they're getting up

678
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 3: from a ton of guy. I mean, Josh is a catalyst.

679
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 3: No Cook, but yeah, you got you know Shakir, You've

680
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 3: got Ty Johnson, you got Kincaid, Cook knocks, all these

681
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,239
Speaker 3: guys used to a ton of guys. Give us an

682
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 3: idea of what some of your defensive guys are saying

683
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 3: about how good this offense has been playing. I mean

684
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 3: you're seeing it every day.

685
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean obviously being Josh is incredible. I mean

686
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 11: Darren Osa is like one thing I just noticed is

687
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 11: like I'd have a great break on the ball. I

688
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 11: mean it's it's getting in there.

689
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I.

690
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 4: Mean obviously phenomenal.

691
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 11: I don't want to speak for you know, all their

692
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 11: whatever they they're sayings are, but I remember something about

693
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 11: everybody that's that's coming to life. I mean all these

694
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 11: guys are doing everything. So I mean I was on

695
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 11: punt team. I've been on punt team most season, So

696
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 11: getting ready to go out on third down and then

697
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 11: you know, Josh typically make something happen.

698
00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 4: On third down, so you sit back and sit mount

699
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 4: right back down.

700
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 2: So tell me, because from a defensive mindset, if you

701
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 2: had to go against this offense and you're seeing nine

702
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 2: different guys catch balls and you watch Amari Cooper catch

703
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 2: six balls one week, and you're like, we got to

704
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 2: look out for this guy. Maybe we've got to roll

705
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 2: covers that way a little bit during the game. And

706
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 2: then you do that and there's eight other guys doing

707
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 2: stuff over here. How confounding is that to get a

708
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 2: beat on, you know, an offense and trying to just

709
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 2: neutralize that and slow them down.

710
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 11: It's got to be hard. I mean, fortunately we don't

711
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 11: play them so well. Right, I'm not completely sure exactly

712
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 11: how our approasure be problem, Yes, for sure. I mean

713
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 11: we got a dominant run game, we got a ton

714
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 11: of guys receivers, tight ends everybody that can do it.

715
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 11: So but you also have to worry about Josh Scramblin.

716
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 11: So it's you can't drop too many guys in the coverage,

717
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 11: so I mean there's a lot to unfold that offense.

718
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 2: What have you made of the defense's ability to take

719
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 2: the ball away? I think there's only one game this year,

720
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 2: the Rams game was the only game you guys did

721
00:33:56,280 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 2: not get one. And I was listening to TV miked

722
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 2: up when you guys played the Colts, and right after

723
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 2: Tarn goes in for the pick six, right at the

724
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 2: start of their first drive, he comes to the sidelines

725
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,359
Speaker 2: and coach a Die is like, all right, that's one, but.

726
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 1: Then we gotta get another one.

727
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:13,440
Speaker 2: We got at four by the end of the game,

728
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 2: and I'm sitting there going four, like four, but like

729
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,879
Speaker 2: it seems like that's the standard now, like the expectation

730
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 2: and all of that.

731
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 1: Take me inside.

732
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 2: How that all got cultivated to be like priority number

733
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:26,919
Speaker 2: one every week?

734
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 11: Yeah, that's a part of our defensive philosophies. You know,

735
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 11: taking the ball away and scoring is also a part

736
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 11: of it. I mean every week they sometimes you know,

737
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 11: set different numbers on the goal for takeaways every week.

738
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 11: And I mean even this, I think we had just

739
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,839
Speaker 11: won this past game, so obviously we won't get more.

740
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 11: CV got it that that was a great player that

741
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 11: was looking for get a couple more this week.

742
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you get this. Have you started to acclimate

743
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 3: towards what it means to have a division game rather

744
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 3: than like the Rams, the Lions are out of you

745
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 3: never this team, this franchise never really sees the teams

746
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 3: once every three years, for sure, but they see some

747
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 3: teams a ton, and these division games, like the Patriots,

748
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 3: the Dolphins, the Jets are those teams that are you know,

749
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 3: people around here really know, I know you're this your

750
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 3: first year. Is there a different vibe for.

751
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 4: That, Yes and no.

752
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 11: Like some games more than others, I would say, like Miami,

753
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 11: the defense has like a you know, a certain way

754
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 11: we play things and things like that. But like this

755
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:27,840
Speaker 11: is my first time seeing the Patriots stuff the Jets

756
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 11: next week, I'm assuming we might have a similar game plan.

757
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 11: Not a completely sure, but it'll definitely be easier like

758
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 11: in the coming years because you've seen it, you know,

759
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 11: you've seen it twice a year.

760
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,399
Speaker 4: But for me, it's still a lot of it's still

761
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:40,439
Speaker 4: now all.

762
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 2: Right, Time now for this week's tim Bits Time Out,

763
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 2: presented by of course Tim Horton's where we have the

764
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,280
Speaker 2: fans ask Bill's players.

765
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: A unique question.

766
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,320
Speaker 2: So this week's question comes from Brian and he asks,

767
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 2: what is the biggest challenge you have faced coming to

768
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 2: the NFL speed of the game, schemes, play style, et cetera.

769
00:35:58,760 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 1: Thanks very much.

770
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:05,320
Speaker 11: Yeah, I'd say probably just coming into a completely new system.

771
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 11: I mean, in college, you play three or four years

772
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 11: in the same system with the same guys, and then

773
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,360
Speaker 11: coming into a completely new thing, having to learn it

774
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 11: and then just get comfortable playing it again, especially depending

775
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 11: on like how many reps you're getting everything. Like for

776
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 11: me personal, I feel like the best way to get

777
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 11: comfortable is just more and more reps. So being able

778
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,840
Speaker 11: to get the game against Houston, you know, made some mistakes,

779
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 11: then being able to learn from it and then come

780
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,839
Speaker 11: in last week and you know, just keep trying to

781
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:32,399
Speaker 11: have a steady increase in play.

782
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,440
Speaker 1: I realized physical reps are the thing, Like that's how

783
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 1: you learn the fastest by playing and repping.

784
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 2: It with the guys around you. But do you feel like,

785
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 2: you know, especially being a young guy and trying to

786
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 2: earn your way onto the field, like the importance of

787
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 2: being a visual learner too, is like huge for sure.

788
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 11: I think when I got hurt in training camp. That

789
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,320
Speaker 11: was pretty much all I could do was mental reps.

790
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 11: So you're sitting out there trying to imagine yourself out

791
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,320
Speaker 11: there every single so just like going through your reads

792
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 11: and keys and everything.

793
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 3: Try and describe what I know, you got that Houston

794
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 3: game under your belt made, and like you say, you

795
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 3: make a couple of mistakes. You always use a young

796
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:13,759
Speaker 3: guy describe after you're out there going full speed and

797
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:15,879
Speaker 3: something happens, you missed a play and you think, oh

798
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 3: I should have done this, or how deep does that

799
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 3: lesson go? Like you'd never get beat like that again?

800
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 5: You know what I mean?

801
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 3: Sure, I mean it sticks with you because as a

802
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 3: young particular searing player, the last thing you want to

803
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:29,520
Speaker 3: do is let the guys down.

804
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 11: Yeah, for sure. I mean, like you said, the last

805
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 11: thing you want to do is let the guys down.

806
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 11: So when something happens in a game, I mean you

807
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 11: obviously try have a short memory, but you definitely remember it.

808
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 11: I mean everybody can say short memory, forget about it,

809
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 11: but you still you still remember.

810
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 3: Next day.

811
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:44,759
Speaker 1: You remember for sure, you watch exactly.

812
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 11: So just being able to learn from that game and

813
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 11: then you know, just like I said, keep trying to

814
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 11: stead of the increase.

815
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 2: Last one for you, col I know the focus is

816
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 2: on the game on Sunday, But after you get through that,

817
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 2: what are the family Christmas plans? Is the family gonna

818
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 2: be able to come up for it?

819
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 4: You're coming out for the game. The time push helped

820

851
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 15: I don't know about that. I think in those critical situations. Really,

852
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 15: what Joe's trying to do is just call our our

853
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 15: best place, whether it's a third down and third and

854
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 15: fourth and five, whatever's next up on our sheet is

855
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 15: what he's calling because that's what we feel comfortable and

856
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,960
Speaker 15: confident in after this past week.

857
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,240
Speaker 3: Try to you both individually and as a leader.

858
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,759
Speaker 15: For this game, well still have to play for you know,

859
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:21,919
Speaker 15: we know as a team that we basically have to

860
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 15: to win out to have any chance with the one seed.

861
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 15: Obviously we don't control our own destiny there, but you know,

862
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 15: our our approach is the same.

863
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,399
Speaker 5: Want to know. Each week, Sean talked a lot.

864
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 14: About just a champions mindset, all discipline.

865
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,400
Speaker 5: Is in that, Like when you hear that, what does

866
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,440
Speaker 5: that mean to you? And for this team to say

867
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 5: that one more time, I'm sorry.

868
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 4: Talk about like discipline being an important aspect of a

869
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 4: champions mindset, Like what does that mean to you?

870
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:48,800
Speaker 15: And just the words yeah, I think, just consistently staying

871
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,879
Speaker 15: with what's got us here, guys, making sure we're we're

872
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 15: still in the training room, still in the film room,

873
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:58,239
Speaker 15: not trying to do anything different throughout the week, for

874
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 15: good or for worse, to be honest, and.

875
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 5: You know, just making sure again we got to walk

876
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:05,240
Speaker 5: through today.

877
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 15: So that's helping guys stay healthy and stay fresh, and

878
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 15: that's that's what we gotta continue to do throughout these

879
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 15: last three weeks heading into the playoffs and make sure

880
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,560
Speaker 15: our our team on the field is as fresh as possible.

881
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 8: Sometimes surprise yourself with what you're I mean, you weren't

882
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:23,480
Speaker 8: expecting to catch your own pass for a touchdown, the

883
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 8: chess pass to goal. Do you sometimes surprise yourself as

884
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:28,720
Speaker 8: what you can pull off on the field.

885
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:30,239
Speaker 5: I don't think so.

886
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 15: Again, I'm just playing this game since the same game

887
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 15: that I've been playing since as a little kid. And

888
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 15: that's kind of what it comes down to, just having

889
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,640
Speaker 15: fun with it and making sure want Tom making good

890
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 15: decisions with the football and allowing our team to make plays.

891
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 5: But two, it's it's fun.

892
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 15: What I get to do is really really fun, and

893
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,440
Speaker 15: I want to have as much fun with it as possible.

894
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 15: And you know, I guess the winning aspect of it

895
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,360
Speaker 15: is the most fun part. And when you're when you're winning,

896
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 15: you're afforded to do some more fun things on the

897
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 15: football field.

898
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 4: The chest pass was that just instinctual?

899
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 12: I mean, yeah, that was a playground stuff.

900
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 15: It was instinctual, just kind of as I moved through

901
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 15: the pocket, the guy kind of got a hand on

902
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 15: the right side of my body and the ball I

903
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:15,200
Speaker 15: just didn't feel like I was gonna be able to

904
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 15: grab it with my right hand, and I saw Dalton

905
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 15: By himself. So I just gonna flung it out there.

906
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 15: Unfortunately got called back. It's not gonna count. Didn't count.

907
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:30,400
Speaker 5: But now we move on should understanding.

908
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 4: That's good. Basically, do you feel like you're playing in

909
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:37,720
Speaker 4: you ever played physical stamps?

910
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 15: I think so, you know, in terms of ball placement,

911
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,879
Speaker 15: especially these last few weeks. Making sure that I'm staying

912
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:50,880
Speaker 15: consistent with my my mechanics.

913
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, guys, that's I know, right.

914
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,399
Speaker 15: We get to have fun. I don't know seventy five,

915
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,960
Speaker 15: I guess, but they're having fun. We get to have

916
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:06,920
Speaker 15: fun here. This is uh, this is what it's all about.

917
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 15: But yeah, just making sure I'm staying up to date

918
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 15: with my mechanics, my footwork, you know, throughout the game

919
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 15: and throughout the years.

920
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:15,439
Speaker 5: You know your your.

921
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 15: Footwork can get off base, you can take three instead

922
00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:20,840
Speaker 15: of five. And just making sure that I'm staying on

923
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:22,640
Speaker 15: top of those little things. And I've got a good

924
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 15: help with Joe in the quarterback room making sure I'm

925
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 15: staying on top of it.

926
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 13: And you go out A fucking little bit ago, Joe

00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 13: Then?

931
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,719

935

Speaker 15: We didn't have to wait until one of the final

936
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 15: weeks to do it. But again, I just think throughout

937
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,160
Speaker 15: my time, I've been here having fun, making sure I'm

938
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 15: going to this building having a smile on my face

939
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:05,840
Speaker 15: with when everybody sees me, it's I'm making sure I

940
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 15: say hello and wap them up and let them know

941
00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 15: how much I love being here, because I think it

942
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 15: is infectious. I think it's something that can spread throughout

943
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:15,240
Speaker 15: the team.

944
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 5: But at the same time, when.

945
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 15: I'm not smiling is because something's not right, and guys

946
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 15: understand that too, so they can lock in.

947
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:27,480
Speaker 5: And again, it just takes quote unquote reps right.

948
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 15: Of being in this building and making sure we're going

949
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 15: through and doing the little things the right way and

950
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 15: when things are up to par, you know, I understand that,

951
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,840
Speaker 15: and guys on the team can tell that too based

952
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,359
Speaker 15: on my face, And it's just being around the guys

953
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 15: as much as possible.

954
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:43,400
Speaker 5: I think helps spleader today than you've absolutely.

955
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:51,359
Speaker 15: I think it's just one of the confidence in myself. Again,

956
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,000
Speaker 15: I'm in the spot in my career, in my life

957
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 15: where you know, it's it's the best I've ever felt.

958
00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:02,319
Speaker 15: And again, just making sure that I'm being me and

959
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 15: only me, and I think that's the only thing I

960
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:05,919
Speaker 15: ever want to be. And I think that's one of

961
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:07,919
Speaker 15: the main things of being a leader is making sure

962
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 15: that you know who you are. And I think that's

963
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,440
Speaker 15: a very obvious thing when guys can see that, and

964
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 15: they can tell when you're not trying to be you.

965
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:20,000
Speaker 15: And I think being around the guys and having a

966
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,520
Speaker 15: lot of the the veteran leadership that we have here,

967
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:24,480
Speaker 15: they know know who I am. These rookies when they

968
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,759
Speaker 15: come in here, they know who I am. And that's

969
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 15: just because I I am who I am, and I

970
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 15: just that's all I try to be. It's been nothing

971
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 15: but spectacular. He's been awesome. Uh, running the ball extremely

972
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:43,719
Speaker 15: hard out of the backfield. He's making plays, he's blocking.

973
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:47,359
Speaker 15: You know, you watch him go run and pick people

974
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,800
Speaker 15: up off the ground, pick up lineman. He's celebrating the

975
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 15: ins with the guys and uh, you guys know, when

976
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 15: James first got here, he was a tough cookie to crack,

977
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 15: you know, didn't want to talk a lot, didn't want

978
00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 15: to But he's he's having fun out there, he's enjoying

979
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 15: the guys that he's with, and he's just he's a

980
00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:04,800
Speaker 15: complete football player.

981
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 9: New England had been the top dog for almost two

982
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,440
Speaker 9: decades in this division and recently because of you and

983
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:12,279
Speaker 9: the guys.

984
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:13,880
Speaker 6: In this locker room, that's changed.

985
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,799
Speaker 9: Does that hold any significance to you, just to have

986
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 9: that success and now that knowing that the division for

987
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 9: the last five years has ran through Buffalo.

988
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 15: I mean it's you're giving yourself the opportunities to do

989
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:27,919
Speaker 15: in the super Bowl. And I think that's the only

990
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 15: thing that winning a division does. Guarantees you a home

991
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:32,879
Speaker 15: game and and gives you a shot at the dance.

992
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:36,480
Speaker 15: And we haven't gotten there yet. So that's the only

993
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 15: thing that's that we're focused on. We're not focused on

994
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 15: so much as the division wins and titles and this

995
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:43,959
Speaker 15: and that. We gotta gotta go win the big one.

996
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:46,400
Speaker 16: God, not thing about.

997
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:49,280
Speaker 5: Until week sixteen, three weeks.

998
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:51,279
Speaker 17: What is that like, what's just you.

999
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:52,080
Speaker 10: Know, preparing for that?

1000
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 15: Yeah, different, different head coach. Obviously different team that I

1001
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,920
Speaker 15: think we've seen the past few years. I think they're

1002
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,839
Speaker 15: really good football though. I think their quarterback is gonna

1003
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 15: be really good for a really long time. He's making

1004
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:10,320
Speaker 15: some some unbelievable plays, you know, extending and from the pocket,

1005
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,200
Speaker 15: and I got a lot of respect for him in

1006
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:15,359
Speaker 15: his game. But this defense, they play hard, and they've

1007
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:16,840
Speaker 15: been a lot of one score games this year that

1008
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:21,240
Speaker 15: could have easily gone their way. So, uh, first and foremost,

1009
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 15: we got to have a good week of practice and

1010
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:24,240
Speaker 15: put our best foot forward on the field on Sunday.

1011
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:27,120
Speaker 8: I mean, you can't get away from TV or a

1012
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:30,880
Speaker 8: lot of things without hearing somebody social media for that matter,

1013
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:35,080
Speaker 8: So somebody talking about you and m VP and the

1014
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:38,120
Speaker 8: character of bands every every time you score a big

1015
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 8: touchdown chance m VP, how do you deal with that?

1016
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:46,919
Speaker 15: Like I deal with anything. That stuff really doesn't matter

1017
00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:50,440
Speaker 15: to me. I'm just trying to focus on winning the

1018
00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 15: next game for the Buffalo Bills and being the best

1019
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:52,920
Speaker 15: teammate that I can be.

1020
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:57,759
Speaker 2: All Right, So that's Josh Allen once again deflecting m

1021
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 2: VP like questions focused on the task at hand. And

1022
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,240
Speaker 2: you know you heard coach mc dermott say today, Steve,

1023
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,879
Speaker 2: He said, because coming off a big emotional win off

1024
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 2: the over the best team in the NFC, you know,

1025
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,640
Speaker 2: let down is a real thing when you're playing a

1026
00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 2: team that's three and eleven. And he said, not if

1027
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:20,000
Speaker 2: you have the champions mindset and you focus on what

1028
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:22,080
Speaker 2: you have to do, not the opponent you're lining up

1029
00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:23,839
Speaker 2: across from. Yes, you prep for them in a certain

1030
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 2: way on film and things like that, but it's more

1031
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 2: about them and what they're doing than your opponent.

1032
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:33,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's about you and you've got to You're trying

1033
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 3: to be the best you can be, regardless of who

1034
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 3: you're playing. But some obstacles are a little harder to see,

1035
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,319
Speaker 3: and having a letdown because an opponent hasn't been able

1036
00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 3: to beat anybody is a real thing that sometimes goes

1037
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:52,839
Speaker 3: it kind of gets past you know. You're just trying

1038
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 3: to do your thing and think, okay, you know that's

1039
00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 3: a challenge to stay focused enough and and concentrate hard

1040
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:04,760
Speaker 3: enough and to put as much effort into something that doesn't,

1041
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 3: by all accounts look like it's going to take as

1042
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:09,320
Speaker 3: much effort, focus and commitment.

1043
00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:12,960
Speaker 2: We are up against the break here, so we got

1044
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:15,279
Speaker 2: to step aside. But when we come back our number two,

1045
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:18,680
Speaker 2: we'll begin with Patriots play by play man Bob Sochi,

1046
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:21,920
Speaker 2: who will join us to give us the update on

1047
00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,800
Speaker 2: what's going on with the Patriots. It's been a rough season,

1048
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:27,280
Speaker 2: but there are a couple of bright spots on that roster.

1049
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:28,759
Speaker 1: We'll talk with Bob about that next.

1050

1057
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:30,400
Speaker 2: of the New England Patriots and Auburn, New York native

1058
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:33,040
Speaker 2: Bob so She joining us here and Bob always thank

1059
00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 2: you for sharing some time with us during your prep

1060
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 2: week and right out of the shoot here, I want

1061
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,360
Speaker 2: to ask you because, as we know, and Coach McDermott

1062
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,759
Speaker 2: says it here all the time, when it comes to

1063
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 2: offensive and defensive football, it starts up front. And it

1064
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 2: seems like the problem that has persisted for most of

1065
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:55,800
Speaker 2: the season for New England's offense has been the inconsistency

1066
00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 2: of that offensive line.

1067
00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:02,360
Speaker 1: It's seemed to make points be it a premium to

1068
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:03,120
Speaker 1: say the least.

1069
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:07,880
Speaker 2: So where have the inconsistencies been upfront for them on offense?

1070
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:12,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, Chris, it's been inconsistency in terms of personnel and

1071
00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 6: for the most part, consistently poor performances on the offensive line.

1072
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:21,320
Speaker 6: Whatever combination the Patriots have utilized. And it really goes

1073
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:25,080
Speaker 6: back several years for the Pats. As you know from

1074
00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,399
Speaker 6: watching the Patriots twice a season, over the last four

1075
00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 6: or five five years, there's been a transformation on the

1076
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:35,040
Speaker 6: offensive line for New England. When you think about the

1077
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:39,160
Speaker 6: last chapter of the Patriots championship run, when you had

1078
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:42,600
Speaker 6: people like Joe Toney and Shaq Mason on the interior

1079
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:45,440
Speaker 6: of the offensive line and tackles that were more than

1080
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:48,760
Speaker 6: adequate protecting whether it was Tom Brady or even Matt Jones.

1081
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:51,640
Speaker 6: A very early in Hugh his career, it was for

1082
00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:53,920
Speaker 6: the most part a solid group coach by an outstanding

1083
00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,760
Speaker 6: coach for a long time, Dante Scarneki. But we started

1084
00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:00,959
Speaker 6: to see a transformation take place late in Brady's career.

1085
00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:03,799
Speaker 6: Bill Belichick's ten yere as the head coach and it's

1086
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 6: continued into this season. The Patriots in the off season

1087
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,719
Speaker 6: tried to address their tackle issue, really in need of

1088
00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:12,320
Speaker 6: two tackles, and they went out and they signed Chuks

1089
00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 6: of Corra four, who was primarily a right tackle in

1090
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:18,760
Speaker 6: Pittsburgh and not necessarily someone that was all that interest

1091
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:21,080
Speaker 6: that it seemed in playing left tackle, and he was

1092
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,399
Speaker 6: one of the guys that they really thought could man

1093
00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:26,239
Speaker 6: that position for them, and ten twelve snaps into the

1094
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:29,839
Speaker 6: regular season opener against Cincinnati, he was benched and very

1095
00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 6: shortly thereafter he was on his way out. And really

1096
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:37,200
Speaker 6: from day one of training camp right to this point

1097
00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:39,800
Speaker 6: of the season, they have tried to find a combination

1098
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 6: of guys and that's meant cycling through a lot of

1099
00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:45,560
Speaker 6: players that didn't begin the year training camp in the

1100
00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:48,920
Speaker 6: Patriots organization, like their starting right tackle to Montre Jacobs.

1101
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 6: He was on the Broncos practice squad last year. He

1102
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:54,120
Speaker 6: was released out of training camp. This year, Ben Brown,

1103
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:57,880
Speaker 6: the center for the Patriots, has taken over to David Andrews' injury.

1104
00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:00,560
Speaker 6: For example, he was on the Las Vegas his practice

1105
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 6: squad on a Wednesday. On Thursday, He's side of the

1106
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,880
Speaker 6: Patriots and on the following Sunday he was in the

1107
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:08,759
Speaker 6: starting line. I mean, he's done, you a fairly serviceable

1108
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:11,959
Speaker 6: job for them. But right from the start of the year,

1109
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,839
Speaker 6: the offensive line has been a major problem. It led

1110
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:17,960
Speaker 6: to constant pressure on Jacoby Brissett. I think it delayed

1111
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:23,840
Speaker 6: the time that the Patriots coaches were willing to turn

1112
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 6: to Drake May. I certainly had an impact on how

1113
00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:28,839
Speaker 6: they developed him in preseason games, you know, going back

1114
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:31,839
Speaker 6: to that point. So it's impacted them in a lot

1115
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,960
Speaker 6: of ways. You saw it on Sunday. It seems like

1116
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:38,000
Speaker 6: if they can't pass protect, then there's a penalty. At

1117
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,320
Speaker 6: the most inopportune time, they decided to come out against Arizona,

1118
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:43,799
Speaker 6: won the coin toss, took the ball, wanted to set

1119
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:45,520
Speaker 6: a different tone out of the buy. With the offense

1120
00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 6: on the field, they have a promising drive, but then

1121
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,440
Speaker 6: it's a holding call and then a missed field goal

1122
00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:54,040
Speaker 6: that derails them and they're playing from behind after Arizona's

1123
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 6: first possession.

1124
00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:57,960
Speaker 3: And despite all the problems up front of the shuffling

1125
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:02,160
Speaker 3: of the line, Drake May has impressed and Alex Van

1126
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:04,960
Speaker 3: Pelt seems to have guided him with a pretty steady

1127
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:08,120
Speaker 3: hand give us some insight as to that relationship. What

1128
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 3: the narrative is coming out of their room with the

1129
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:13,759
Speaker 3: way Van Pelt is, what Van Pelt has given May

1130
00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 3: to handle, and how he's done that.

1131
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:20,520
Speaker 6: Yes, Steve, I think Drake May know as a quarterback

1132
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 6: that we were told and you could see it too

1133
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:25,040
Speaker 6: watching him coming out of North Carolina, who among the

1134
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,839
Speaker 6: first round quarterbacks, seemed to be the furthest away from

1135
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:30,080
Speaker 6: being ready to start on day one. There were some

1136
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:33,319
Speaker 6: issues with footwork and also the challenge of having not

1137
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,640
Speaker 6: called plays in the North Carolina offense in a huddle,

1138
00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:39,759
Speaker 6: having not taken snaps for the most part, with a

1139
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:43,360
Speaker 6: few exceptions in the red zone in his case under center,

1140
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:46,600
Speaker 6: and Alex van Pelt has guided him with a very

1141
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:49,960
Speaker 6: patient and very steady hand. You guys know Alex of

1142
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,520
Speaker 6: course from his time in Buffalo, whether on the video

1143
00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:55,279
Speaker 6: or in the broadcast booth, are on the staff there,

1144
00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 6: and I have a lot of respect for Alex van

1145
00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:59,720
Speaker 6: Pelton and the way I think he has called games

1146
00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:03,400
Speaker 6: this year. The first part of Drake May's tenure, let's say,

1147
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:06,320
Speaker 6: as the starter in really trying to craft the offense

1148
00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:09,600
Speaker 6: to help him develop, and he's done that remarkably well.

1149
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:11,879
Speaker 6: And I think what we've tried to what we've seen

1150
00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:14,600
Speaker 6: over the last few weeks is an attempt to try

1151
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:16,719
Speaker 6: to now take advantage of what Drake May has been

1152
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,279
Speaker 6: able to do in some of the things that we

1153
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:21,680
Speaker 6: haven't seen to this point. That was most evident in

1154
00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:24,239
Speaker 6: the game against the Rams we played very well, and

1155
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:25,960
Speaker 6: then two weeks ago, I thought when he had his

1156
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:29,320
Speaker 6: best game for the Patriots in a loss against Indianapolis.

1157
00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:31,480
Speaker 6: So I think Alex ban van Pelt's done a tremendous

1158
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 6: job and in correcting a lot of the flaws, in

1159
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:39,080
Speaker 6: working on the mechanics of the position, also getting incomfortable

1160
00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:43,880
Speaker 6: for the important things that a quarterback has to do

1161
00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:47,200
Speaker 6: from a leadership standpoint, to get you into the right play,

1162
00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:49,120
Speaker 6: to get you out of the wrong play, to take

1163
00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:52,080
Speaker 6: command of the huddle. He's made tremendous progress from the

1164
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:55,560
Speaker 6: started training gamp. And then there's the physical ability, not

1165
00:55:55,680 --> 00:56:00,800
Speaker 6: only the arm strength which came as advertised in uniform,

1166
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,600
Speaker 6: and the athleticism, but I think, you know, combining that

1167
00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:09,320
Speaker 6: athleticism and escapability with the vision to see the field,

1168
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:13,480
Speaker 6: the willingness to look to make plays first with his

1169
00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:15,960
Speaker 6: arm even while he's using his legs before he then

1170
00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:19,359
Speaker 6: tucks it and runs. I think learning from mistakes. There

1171
00:56:19,440 --> 00:56:21,239
Speaker 6: was a game against Miami, took a strip sack and

1172
00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:23,960
Speaker 6: he started going backward out of the pocket. The next

1173
00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:27,279
Speaker 6: week we saw him short end up things and take

1174
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:29,279
Speaker 6: a sack right at the line of scrimmage, just behind

1175
00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 6: the line of scrimmage to keep the team in field

1176
00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,400
Speaker 6: goal range and not turn the ball over. He's had

1177
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:35,680
Speaker 6: some interceptions the last two weeks, frankly, that really have

1178
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:38,560
Speaker 6: been less on him and more on either the receiver

1179
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:40,319
Speaker 6: or just some bad luck balls that have hit off

1180
00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,279
Speaker 6: receivers hands or bodies and on the karm been caught

1181
00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:46,680
Speaker 6: by the opposition. So he's been tremendous. He has been

1182
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,799
Speaker 6: obviously the most important part of this season for the Patriots,

1183
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:53,480
Speaker 6: and far and away he's delivered, I think in even

1184
00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:55,719
Speaker 6: exceeding expectations.

1185
00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:58,080
Speaker 1: And with you know, Ramandre Stevenson.

1186
00:56:58,120 --> 00:57:00,480
Speaker 2: I think a lot of people felt, well, be a

1187
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:05,439
Speaker 2: run game that's capable of supporting a young quarterback. And look,

1188
00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:08,480
Speaker 2: I mean, his numbers aren't fantastic team wise, though it's

1189
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,160
Speaker 2: pretty good from a run game perspective, and I realize

1190
00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:15,600
Speaker 2: that some of May's scrambling factors into that, But still,

1191
00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 2: in all, how would you assess the run game, again,

1192
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:22,400
Speaker 2: being fully aware of the inconsistencies up front? How much

1193
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 2: has that hampered Stevenson's production this year because he's a

1194
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:26,920
Speaker 2: guy that's been.

1195
00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 1: Ultra productive for this team in previous seasons.

1196
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, Chris, and I think it goes back to the

1197
00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,480
Speaker 6: first question you asked and the topic of the Patriots

1198
00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:36,760
Speaker 6: offensive line. When you look at Romado Stevens in and

1199
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:38,920
Speaker 6: al throw Antonio Gibson in there as well, because he's

1200
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,080
Speaker 6: run well of life for them, and he's a guy

1201
00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:43,600
Speaker 6: he's shown an ability to run with power and speed

1202
00:57:43,920 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 6: and may even in many ways be better suited for

1203
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,600
Speaker 6: the kind of offense they want to run. But so

1204
00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:50,480
Speaker 6: many of the yards are made after contact.

1205
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:51,000
Speaker 1: You know.

1206
00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:53,240
Speaker 6: The formula for the Patriots in their first win against

1207
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:56,160
Speaker 6: Cincinnati was the formula that I think Gerrod Mayle and

1208
00:57:56,240 --> 00:58:02,560
Speaker 6: his staff wanted to implement and ultimately execute week after week.

1209
00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:06,960
Speaker 6: Run the ball, control the ball, don't turn it over,

1210
00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:10,160
Speaker 6: play solid defense, be a lot better than they were

1211
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:12,440
Speaker 6: in special teams, and they came away with a win

1212
00:58:12,560 --> 00:58:15,080
Speaker 6: in that game, plus two in the turnover margin. They

1213
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:17,720
Speaker 6: got some points off to turnovers. They ran the ball

1214
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 6: very effectively against Cincinnati, and I think that was going

1215
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:23,040
Speaker 6: to be them o for the team in the best

1216
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:26,440
Speaker 6: case scenario, and it just hasn't lived up to the

1217
00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:30,760
Speaker 6: expectations in that respect. Stevenson is a guy that is,

1218
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:32,520
Speaker 6: I think, you know, one of the better backs in

1219
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:35,280
Speaker 6: this league, but unfortunately just has not been able to

1220
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:40,000
Speaker 6: show it often because again, the contact against him and

1221
00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:44,120
Speaker 6: Gibson so often comes either right behind the line of

1222
00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:46,520
Speaker 6: scrimmage or at the line of scrimmage, and so much

1223
00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:48,760
Speaker 6: of what they've gained they've done on their own. And

1224
00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:50,840
Speaker 6: the other part of that too is often you get

1225
00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:53,640
Speaker 6: into games and you're chasing. You go to Miami and

1226
00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:55,920
Speaker 6: before you know it, you're down by a couple of scores,

1227
00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:58,520
Speaker 6: and now you have to try to abandon what game

1228
00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:01,960
Speaker 6: plan you had laid out. And you know, the backs

1229
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:04,520
Speaker 6: have been under a lot of duress, the quarterback, the

1230
00:59:04,600 --> 00:59:07,800
Speaker 6: pressure rate, I mean, the numbers are pretty self the

1231
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:09,800
Speaker 6: play is self evident when you watch it, and it's

1232
00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:11,040
Speaker 6: all verified by the numbers.

1233
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:16,920
Speaker 2: And then defensively, you know, Gonzales clearly looks like a

1234
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:20,520
Speaker 2: player that the Patriots organization can certainly build around. He's

1235
00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:24,240
Speaker 2: drawing number one assignments every week. I mean I remember

1236
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:26,760
Speaker 2: in last year's draft, I or two years ago, I

1237
00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,120
Speaker 2: kind of felt like, I don't know if I've ever

1238
00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:34,000
Speaker 2: seen anyone make playing cornerback look easier than Christian Gonzalez.

1239
00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:37,600
Speaker 2: I mean, he's just so fluid. It's just it's readily apparent,

1240
00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:39,240
Speaker 2: even if you don't have a trained die for it.

1241
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:42,479
Speaker 2: So he's obviously your building block on the defensive side.

1242
00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 2: Drake is your building block on the offensive side. The

1243
00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:48,600
Speaker 2: thing that's confounded me this year, Bob, is I thought

1244
00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:51,160
Speaker 2: the front seven had some players worth their salt that

1245
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:54,120
Speaker 2: you could build around also, and it just seems like

1246
00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:58,280
Speaker 2: that front seven hasn't materialized. And I was expecting big

1247
00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:01,000
Speaker 2: things from them, especially under a defensive minded head coach

1248
01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:01,760
Speaker 2: in Gerrod Mayo.

1249
01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:03,400
Speaker 1: What has been missing there?

1250
01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:06,880
Speaker 6: It's confunded a lot of people. Chris, you have a

1251
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:09,400
Speaker 6: lot of company in that respect. And I will say

1252
01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:11,960
Speaker 6: this too. You know, they've been hit hard in a

1253
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:14,360
Speaker 6: couple of key areas during the course of this year.

1254
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,480
Speaker 6: They lost Christian Barmer right before they put pads on

1255
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:21,000
Speaker 6: during training camp. He was diagnosed with blood clots and

1256
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:23,440
Speaker 6: he's coming back now, it's been back in the lineup

1257
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:24,880
Speaker 6: for a month, and I think that's one of those

1258
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 6: building blocks when you look at the Patriots, a young player,

1259
01:00:28,000 --> 01:00:29,840
Speaker 6: they signed him to do a new deal in the

1260
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:34,840
Speaker 6: off season, an explosive athlete of which they don't really

1261
01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:37,800
Speaker 6: have a lot of on their roster. And so when

1262
01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:39,640
Speaker 6: you were looking at the Patriots in the off season

1263
01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 6: and they had a couple of big questions to deal

1264
01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:44,760
Speaker 6: with defensively, you know, what were they going to do

1265
01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:48,320
Speaker 6: with Matthew Judon going into training camp not happy about

1266
01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:50,560
Speaker 6: the contract that he was going to be asked to

1267
01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:52,960
Speaker 6: play on as a Patriot. Right from the start, that

1268
01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:55,560
Speaker 6: was a problem. And Judon has been a very productive

1269
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:58,480
Speaker 6: player for the better part of his career and was

1270
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:00,840
Speaker 6: for the Patriots for the most part for two plus

1271
01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 6: seasons until he was injured last year. But they ran

1272
01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:07,160
Speaker 6: into problems with him in terms of getting him on

1273
01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:10,600
Speaker 6: the practice field. He was a hold in certainly voiced

1274
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:13,120
Speaker 6: his displeasure with the media and carry that out, and

1275
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,280
Speaker 6: it really kind of set up the defense, I think,

1276
01:01:15,320 --> 01:01:18,680
Speaker 6: on the wrong tone, wrong foot, so to speak, going

1277
01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 6: into training camp. And then Barmore gets diagnosed with the

1278
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:24,160
Speaker 6: blood clots, and then very early in the season they

1279
01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 6: lose their leader in the middle of that defense, Juwan Bentley,

1280
01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:29,280
Speaker 6: and I still think as an organization, while they have

1281
01:01:29,400 --> 01:01:32,560
Speaker 6: Gonzales quarterback, you know, they were still searching for the

1282
01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:37,120
Speaker 6: rest of the secondary combination as Jonathan Jones got a

1283
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:40,040
Speaker 6: little bit older again coming off of some surgery in

1284
01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:42,840
Speaker 6: the offseason. The guy's been a very good slot cornerback

1285
01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:46,400
Speaker 6: for them until moving to the outside. Marcus Jones player

1286
01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:48,800
Speaker 6: his first couple of years limited by injuries, but I

1287
01:01:48,840 --> 01:01:51,040
Speaker 6: think they saw a lot of promise in him at

1288
01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:55,080
Speaker 6: the quarterback spot. But the free safety situation ever since

1289
01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:59,880
Speaker 6: Devin mccordy left for retirement, I think has been a

1290
01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:04,720
Speaker 6: avoid for them. Jabrill Pepper is Kyle Duger Moore, strong

1291
01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:07,480
Speaker 6: safety types in the box types. Pepper has of course

1292
01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:12,760
Speaker 6: had an issue of domestic issue that left him suspended

1293
01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:15,240
Speaker 6: for a good chunk of the season, so he wasn't

1294
01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:18,160
Speaker 6: out there, and they've experienced a lot of communication mishaps

1295
01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:21,200
Speaker 6: and frankly, the personnel at the second level the linebacker

1296
01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:25,560
Speaker 6: spot for them has been inadequate after losing Betley, But

1297
01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:28,800
Speaker 6: you're right, the defensive front should be a lot better.

1298
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:29,760
Speaker 1: It just hasn't been.

1299
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 6: I think once they traded Jude On to Atlanta, they

1300
01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:34,440
Speaker 6: felt that Keon White would have a breakout year and

1301
01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:37,720
Speaker 6: it just hasn't materialized. He had multi sack games the

1302
01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:39,960
Speaker 6: first two weeks of the year, but it's really been

1303
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:43,040
Speaker 6: for the most part, a non factor. Since you have

1304
01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:46,960
Speaker 6: a first time defensive coordinator DeMarcus Covington, who has struggled,

1305
01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:49,600
Speaker 6: it seems, and is under a lot of criticism here

1306
01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:52,520
Speaker 6: in terms of the ability to adapt and adjust to

1307
01:02:52,600 --> 01:02:55,840
Speaker 6: what opposing teams have done, and they just fallen victim

1308
01:02:55,920 --> 01:02:58,680
Speaker 6: to too many communication breakdowns that have led to big

1309
01:02:58,760 --> 01:02:59,800
Speaker 6: plays for the opposition.

1310
01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:02,919
Speaker 3: So obviously it's been a struggle on the win loss

1311
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:05,320
Speaker 3: column for the Patriots, but they've got like eight games

1312
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:08,240
Speaker 3: where they were single score games, But they had a

1313
01:03:08,280 --> 01:03:10,200
Speaker 3: six game losing streak in the first half of the season.

1314
01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:12,080
Speaker 3: Now in their midst of a four game losing streak.

1315
01:03:12,960 --> 01:03:15,920
Speaker 3: What is the narrative surrounding Drod Mayo and how long

1316
01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:16,720
Speaker 3: they're going to give him?

1317
01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:23,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, Steve, it's a narrative that has really evolved a

1318
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:27,240
Speaker 6: lot more in the last few days since a postgame

1319
01:03:27,280 --> 01:03:31,400
Speaker 6: press conference remark on Sunday in Arizona. You know, girod

1320
01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:36,200
Speaker 6: first year coach, very limited coaching experience, and I believe

1321
01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:39,320
Speaker 6: that Drod Mayo could be a very good coach as

1322
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:40,960
Speaker 6: a head coach in this league because he has a

1323
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,560
Speaker 6: lot of the qualities. Obviously, he's the football acumen of

1324
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:45,520
Speaker 6: somebody who called defense. Was in the middle of the

1325
01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 6: defense for the Patriots. He was a leader on a

1326
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:50,040
Speaker 6: team at a very young age, a captain by his

1327
01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:53,560
Speaker 6: second season. In the locker room that when he entered

1328
01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:56,640
Speaker 6: had guys like Teddy Bruski and Vrabel and you know,

1329
01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:01,720
Speaker 6: some established defensive stars and leaders for the Patriots, and

1330
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:06,000
Speaker 6: Grod Mayo immediately asserted himself as one of those leaders

1331
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,760
Speaker 6: in that locker room. A guy's very charismatic, as a

1332
01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:12,000
Speaker 6: great personality, connects with people on every level. And as

1333
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:15,080
Speaker 6: an assistant coach for the Patriots, along with Steve Belichick,

1334
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:18,360
Speaker 6: was really one of the co coordinators for them defensively.

1335
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:19,840
Speaker 6: They had a lot to do with their defensive game

1336
01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:23,640
Speaker 6: plans the last few years and going into this season,

1337
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:27,600
Speaker 6: you know, he was anointed the head coach a couple

1338
01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:30,120
Speaker 6: of years on the job as a as an assistant coach.

1339
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:33,280
Speaker 6: It seems, and he had an opportunity to learn behind Belichick.

1340
01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:36,880
Speaker 6: You know, even even if it appears like then in

1341
01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:40,000
Speaker 6: the last year there, they hadn't been as close as

1342
01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:42,520
Speaker 6: they were when Girod was playing for him and early

1343
01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:45,200
Speaker 6: in his coaching career. Nonetheless, there was that opportunity and

1344
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:47,960
Speaker 6: to watch who people here believe is the best of

1345
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:50,080
Speaker 6: all time do it on a day to day basis,

1346
01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:52,880
Speaker 6: having played for him as well. And you know, I

1347
01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,680
Speaker 6: think he tried during the training camp period to establish

1348
01:04:55,720 --> 01:04:58,880
Speaker 6: a physicality and and and tried to instill a lot

1349
01:04:58,920 --> 01:05:02,360
Speaker 6: of the same things, but the different approach, a different

1350
01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:04,400
Speaker 6: manner in terms of the way he dealt with the media,

1351
01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:06,240
Speaker 6: in terms of the way he dealt with his players,

1352
01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:08,720
Speaker 6: stock players a lot more active than they've ever been

1353
01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:12,800
Speaker 6: on social media, guys openly venting frustration during the course

1354
01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:14,800
Speaker 6: of the year. And I think what's just happened over

1355
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:17,240
Speaker 6: the course of time too, is he's had some missteps

1356
01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:21,520
Speaker 6: and press conferences. It's called into question one. Okay, the

1357
01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:24,280
Speaker 6: roster's not very good, but what progress are they making

1358
01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:27,360
Speaker 6: and how is the culture? And in the past week,

1359
01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:31,040
Speaker 6: he was asked about Drake May in a goal line

1360
01:05:31,120 --> 01:05:33,360
Speaker 6: sequence where they were stuffed done third and fourth down

1361
01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:37,400
Speaker 6: and potentially using his legs, using his running ability, and

1362
01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:41,680
Speaker 6: in answering the question, he said to the reporter, you

1363
01:05:41,840 --> 01:05:45,160
Speaker 6: said it, I didn't, And you know that's let a

1364
01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:46,720
Speaker 6: lot of people in these parts, and you know how

1365
01:05:46,760 --> 01:05:49,160
Speaker 6: the volume gets turned up very quickly here to say

1366
01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:52,000
Speaker 6: that he was throwing Alex van Pelt, his offensive coordinator,

1367
01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:54,640
Speaker 6: under the bust or. I tried to clarify the remarks

1368
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:57,480
Speaker 6: again on Monday, but here we are today. It's his

1369
01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:00,680
Speaker 6: first in person press conference of the week, and a

1370
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:02,920
Speaker 6: lot of the questions are asked of being asked of

1371
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,760
Speaker 6: him about his job security. I think the Crafts, you know,

1372
01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:08,200
Speaker 6: they took a chance on him. I think Robert Craft

1373
01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:11,240
Speaker 6: certainly has been open about what he saw in Girodmeo.

1374
01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:13,840
Speaker 6: He's a player that he took under his wing, someone

1375
01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:16,280
Speaker 6: who had a lot of vacuum in outside of football

1376
01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:19,160
Speaker 6: and applied it in the business world and had some

1377
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:22,240
Speaker 6: success in private business before he got back into football

1378
01:06:22,280 --> 01:06:23,760
Speaker 6: and coaching, and so you would think this guy has

1379
01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:26,640
Speaker 6: a lot of the qualities that it takes in this

1380
01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:29,360
Speaker 6: day and age to relate to young players, to relate

1381
01:06:29,400 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 6: to people, to be a CEO, if you will, of

1382
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:34,520
Speaker 6: a football staff. But the team has struggled, and again

1383
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:37,000
Speaker 6: there haven't been a lot of signs of improvement, and

1384
01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:40,320
Speaker 6: now there's just been, you know, maybe an accumulation of

1385
01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:43,440
Speaker 6: missteps and press conferences, but in particular this one that

1386
01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:47,240
Speaker 6: I think has really intensified the scrutiny and the criticism

1387
01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:47,600
Speaker 6: of him.

1388
01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:50,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, be interesting to see how this season plays out,

1389
01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:52,720
Speaker 2: and more importantly, how the offseason plays out for the Patriots,

1390
01:06:52,800 --> 01:06:54,720
Speaker 2: for sure. Bob, thanks for the time, as always, safe

1391
01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:56,480
Speaker 2: travels up here. We'll see you here this weekend.

1392
01:06:57,640 --> 01:07:00,720
Speaker 6: Dave Chris always enjoy coming to Buffalo. Maybe not the weather.

1393
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:02,000
Speaker 1: I thought I should be used to it.

1394
01:07:02,080 --> 01:07:03,360
Speaker 6: I know you guys deed to hear that.

1395
01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:05,200
Speaker 1: Bring a couple extra layers.

1396
01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:08,840
Speaker 3: You bet I'll be layered up looking forward to it,

1397
01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:09,840
Speaker 3: all right, Take care, Bob.

1398
01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:13,080
Speaker 1: That's Patriots play by play voice on the radio. Bob.

1399
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:16,280
Speaker 2: So he's also a I guess he's right on the

1400
01:07:16,320 --> 01:07:18,760
Speaker 2: border between central and western New York and Auburn there

1401
01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,400
Speaker 2: over New York native. Always good to see Bob up

1402
01:07:22,400 --> 01:07:25,360
Speaker 2: in these parts. Fortunately, the season not going very well

1403
01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:30,480
Speaker 2: for those Patriots, and man, I was looking at their

1404
01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,720
Speaker 2: starting lineups because the offensive line has been abysmal for

1405
01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:39,120
Speaker 2: them all season long. They've had eleven different starting lineups

1406
01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:42,840
Speaker 2: in fourteen games on that offensive line, and it's not

1407
01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:45,560
Speaker 2: because of injury. It's due largely to ineffectiveness and trying

1408
01:07:45,560 --> 01:07:46,440
Speaker 2: to find a better answer.

1409
01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:50,040
Speaker 3: Well when they yeah, like you said, when they brought

1410
01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:52,840
Speaker 3: a core four in to play left and he didn't

1411
01:07:52,840 --> 01:07:57,080
Speaker 3: want to play, that starts showing a downhill run, but

1412
01:07:57,480 --> 01:07:58,520
Speaker 3: that's not going to go anywhere.

1413
01:07:58,560 --> 01:07:59,000
Speaker 4: So it's.

1414
01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:04,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to draft well for the big guys,

1415
01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:08,880
Speaker 3: particularly on the offensive line. The Bills have done that consistently.

1416
01:08:10,600 --> 01:08:13,560
Speaker 3: When you're drafting those guys, you're drafting traits, you really are.

1417
01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:18,559
Speaker 3: You got to have big dudes, and they're rare. They're

1418
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:22,519
Speaker 3: more rare than people believe. And that's why I think,

1419
01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:24,680
Speaker 3: you know, Brandon Bean, that they learned their lesson in

1420
01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:29,080
Speaker 3: two thousand and I believe nineteen when Josh was they

1421
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:31,120
Speaker 3: did get to the playoffs, but their offensive line was

1422
01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:33,479
Speaker 3: a little bit you know, helter skelter, and he's running

1423
01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:35,200
Speaker 3: for his life a little bit, and Josh wasn't ready

1424
01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:36,720
Speaker 3: for it, and they said that's it, We're going to

1425
01:08:36,760 --> 01:08:39,080
Speaker 3: get an offensive line, and they've not forgotten about that

1426
01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:40,559
Speaker 3: lesson here in Buffalo.

1427
01:08:41,120 --> 01:08:44,120
Speaker 2: The Wednesday injury report is out for the Bills, and

1428
01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:46,479
Speaker 2: I don't think there are any tremendous surprises here, but

1429
01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:51,639
Speaker 2: there were some limited participants in the walk through practice today.

1430
01:08:51,720 --> 01:08:54,599
Speaker 2: Bills have to give an estimated participation level of all

1431
01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:59,320
Speaker 2: players if it was a full scale practice, so limited

1432
01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:02,240
Speaker 2: in practice today. The three players who missed last week's

1433
01:09:02,280 --> 01:09:06,679
Speaker 2: game Rasul Douglas, DeMar Hamlin, Taylor Rap and then three

1434
01:09:06,720 --> 01:09:10,400
Speaker 2: players who got nicked up in last week's game also limited,

1435
01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:13,879
Speaker 2: those being Matt Mlana with the groin injury, Curtis Samuel

1436
01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:17,600
Speaker 2: with the rib injury, and Dorian Williams who left the

1437
01:09:17,640 --> 01:09:20,840
Speaker 2: game and then returned with an elbow injury. So that's

1438
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:24,479
Speaker 2: kind of your Wednesday injury report as far as that goes.

1439
01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:27,000
Speaker 2: We also want to remind you today is Wednesday, and

1440
01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:29,720

1446

1470
01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:50,920
Speaker 18: I know about Khalil Mack. I know that we have

1471
01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:55,559
Speaker 18: some buffle Bill a Bolt on our roster. They're pretty good.

1472
01:10:56,560 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 18: But here I have not heard anything about this story.

1473
01:11:01,200 --> 01:11:06,720
Speaker 18: Who is a number one appointee to the All Star team?

1474
01:11:07,479 --> 01:11:10,800
Speaker 18: Who in the world is he worth a frigging a

1475
01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:14,679
Speaker 18: draft choice. I'd like to know something about him.

1476
01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:16,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, who's she talking about?

1477
01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:21,800
Speaker 2: She's talking about Sean Dolac, West Seneca native UB linebacker.

1478
01:11:22,720 --> 01:11:25,519
Speaker 2: He's graduating this year. He will be in the draft pool.

1479
01:11:26,040 --> 01:11:28,960
Speaker 2: He was named an All American and he.

1480
01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:31,559
Speaker 3: Was started American since the nineteen fifties for you. Yeah,

1481
01:11:31,680 --> 01:11:32,640
Speaker 3: and he was.

1482
01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:37,320
Speaker 2: Also first team All Mid American Conference, and so he

1483
01:11:37,439 --> 01:11:39,680
Speaker 2: might have even been defensive player of the Year in

1484
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:42,080
Speaker 2: the conference as well, if I if I remember right, Yes,

1485
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:47,599
Speaker 2: so really really, really productive season and he's a good player.

1486
01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:51,800
Speaker 2: I don't think I don't. I probably should watch a

1487
01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:53,800
Speaker 2: little more tape. I saw a couple of UB games

1488
01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:55,479
Speaker 2: this year and he shined. He had a fifty two

1489
01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:57,920
Speaker 2: yard interception return in one of them. He's a really

1490
01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:02,160
Speaker 2: good player. How his game will translate to the NFL

1491
01:12:02,320 --> 01:12:06,160
Speaker 2: level is is the big question here, And the reason

1492
01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:11,640
Speaker 2: I say that is because he is a bigger bodied linebacker.

1493
01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:15,639
Speaker 2: I think if we were in the late eighties early nineties,

1494
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:19,040
Speaker 2: he's perfect well for what the game was, then I

1495
01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:21,280
Speaker 2: think he could drop into coverage and play there some

1496
01:12:23,160 --> 01:12:27,120
Speaker 2: He strikes me as a middle linebacker type. And where

1497
01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:29,120
Speaker 2: is he gonna go in the draft? I can't I

1498
01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:32,160
Speaker 2: can't discernibly say right now because I haven't studied the Dragon.

1499
01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:34,000
Speaker 3: Well, he probably will get drafted.

1500
01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:35,880
Speaker 1: He will get drafted. He will. I just can't tell

1501
01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:36,320
Speaker 1: you where.

1502
01:12:36,439 --> 01:12:38,000
Speaker 3: Judy, But we don't know where, and we don't know

1503
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:40,080
Speaker 3: if it's going to be by Buffalo or not. If

1504
01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:43,679
Speaker 3: he's a big body dude who can run, somebody's gonna

1505
01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:46,160
Speaker 3: give him a shot for sure. Plus protect plus the

1506
01:12:46,240 --> 01:12:50,040
Speaker 3: fact that he has been productive this far in his career.

1507
01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:51,840
Speaker 3: So yeah, that that gets you in the door.

1508
01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:56,120
Speaker 2: No IQ player. Yeah he'll he'll bet he'll get drafted

1509
01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:59,439
Speaker 2: for sure. And look, some of these guys from these

1510
01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:03,920
Speaker 2: mid major schools. They impress in the pre draft process,

1511
01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:06,400
Speaker 2: whether it's the Senior Bowl or one of the other

1512
01:13:07,080 --> 01:13:10,600
Speaker 2: All Star showcase games, and then kill it at the combine,

1513
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:14,320
Speaker 2: kill it in interviews kill it in pre draft workouts,

1514
01:13:14,640 --> 01:13:16,400
Speaker 2: kill it on thirty visits to teams.

1515
01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:19,400
Speaker 1: They can move up the draft board and go from.

1516
01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:21,200
Speaker 2: A Day three pick to a Day two pick, or

1517
01:13:21,240 --> 01:13:23,120
Speaker 2: a Day two pick to maybe even a late Day

1518
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:26,600
Speaker 2: one pick. So that has to all unfold over the

1519
01:13:26,640 --> 01:13:28,840
Speaker 2: next several months for Sean Dolak and everybody else that's

1520
01:13:28,880 --> 01:13:31,880
Speaker 2: in the in the draft pool. But I'm confident he

1521
01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:34,519
Speaker 2: will be drafted where I do not yet know. So

1522
01:13:34,800 --> 01:13:37,320
Speaker 2: that's all I can really give you on that for now, Judy.

1523
01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:40,479
Speaker 2: But I think he's got a future ahead of him

1524
01:13:40,479 --> 01:13:43,559
Speaker 2: in the league for sure. Uh, let's go to Thomas

1525
01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:44,720
Speaker 2: in Buffalo next.

1526
01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:45,639
Speaker 1: What do you got for us? Thomas?

1527
01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:47,800
Speaker 4: What's up? Guys?

1528
01:13:48,640 --> 01:13:52,160
Speaker 16: Couple of things I'm hope in our defense against Better

1529
01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:55,320
Speaker 16: because I definitely do not want us given up forty

1530
01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:58,320
Speaker 16: four plus points and the plus and the playoffs. That's

1531
01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:00,640
Speaker 16: one thing you and may you guys can help me

1532
01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:04,759
Speaker 16: out with something I do not want to. I hope

1533
01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:08,160
Speaker 16: the Chiefs will lose Saturday and the Christmas But if

1534
01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:10,360
Speaker 16: I have to go on and hear about them having

1535
01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:13,800
Speaker 16: the perfect season for weeks, I don't know if I

1536
01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:16,679
Speaker 16: can take it. So and like you, and Ludisu Steve.

1537
01:14:16,920 --> 01:14:19,160
Speaker 16: The Steelers aren't the same team with all pickings in

1538
01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:21,880
Speaker 16: the lineup, so I'm hoping he'll be good to go

1539
01:14:22,080 --> 01:14:24,719
Speaker 16: win today. But what do you think, because I'm thinking,

1540
01:14:25,200 --> 01:14:27,400
Speaker 16: if I have to hear the Chiefs having the perfect

1541
01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:29,760
Speaker 16: season for weeks, I think I'm gonna grab me a

1542
01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:31,360
Speaker 16: couple of six pass and throw something back.

1543
01:14:32,240 --> 01:14:34,479
Speaker 3: What do you as? Yeah, well, the Chiefs, the Bills

1544
01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:37,160
Speaker 3: ruin their perfect season, but because they lost it, they

1545
01:14:37,240 --> 01:14:40,839
Speaker 3: lost to the Chiefs. But you're right, the Pittsburgh Kansas

1546
01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:43,920
Speaker 3: City game, a lot of Bills fans really all or

1547
01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:46,160
Speaker 3: you're hanging your hat on that game. They've got to

1548
01:14:46,240 --> 01:14:52,120
Speaker 3: lose two of the next three, and the Bill's got

1549
01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:55,000
Speaker 3: to win out to get the one seed. The Bill's

1550
01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:57,000
Speaker 3: got to win three and they've got to lose two

1551
01:14:57,720 --> 01:14:59,200
Speaker 3: because the Bills are two games back.

1552
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:01,120
Speaker 1: They got they got to have two games back with

1553
01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:01,599
Speaker 1: three to play.

1554
01:15:01,680 --> 01:15:02,960
Speaker 3: With three to play, they got to finish with the

1555
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:04,720
Speaker 3: same record for the Bills to win it because they've

1556
01:15:04,720 --> 01:15:10,040
Speaker 3: won the tiebreaker head to head. Yeah, They've got three

1557
01:15:10,120 --> 01:15:13,040
Speaker 3: really good teams to play coming up. First of all,

1558
01:15:13,920 --> 01:15:18,080
Speaker 3: the Baltimore Ravens and Baltimore has got a chip on

1559
01:15:18,120 --> 01:15:21,519
Speaker 3: their shoulder the size of the stadium itself against the Steelers,

1560
01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:22,600
Speaker 3: so you feel good about that.

1561
01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:25,320
Speaker 1: One, especially since they lost the first meeting to the Steelers.

1562
01:15:25,439 --> 01:15:30,599
Speaker 3: Right, the Steelers play Kansas City in two on Wednesday.

1563
01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:34,200
Speaker 3: That's a short week, So what you're hoping is that

1564
01:15:34,240 --> 01:15:37,679
Speaker 3: the Houston Texans can punch Kansas City in the mouth

1565
01:15:38,080 --> 01:15:40,840
Speaker 3: and at least soften them up for a short week

1566
01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:45,320
Speaker 3: against a Pittsburgh team that's gonna need the game, and

1567
01:15:45,479 --> 01:15:50,400
Speaker 3: then hopefully, you know, Denver can rise up or whatever.

1568
01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:53,120
Speaker 3: Either Houston or Denver can also beat Kansas City in

1569
01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:56,120
Speaker 3: one of those games around the Pittsburgh game. But there's

1570
01:15:56,120 --> 01:15:58,519
Speaker 3: no question Pittsburgh's got the best chance of knocking the

1571
01:15:58,600 --> 01:16:02,080
Speaker 3: Chiefs off because they play at Pittsburgh. Of course, Denver

1572
01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:05,880
Speaker 3: plays in Denver, but you know, Kansas City has had

1573
01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:10,960
Speaker 3: Denver's number for a decade. So we'll see. I think

1574
01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:18,320
Speaker 3: the best chances are Houston and Pittsburgh. We'll see. Now,

1575
01:16:19,439 --> 01:16:22,639
Speaker 3: like we said, Kansas City is gonna play two games

1576
01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:26,800
Speaker 3: between the Chiefs between the Bills two games because of

1577
01:16:27,080 --> 01:16:30,400
Speaker 3: the fall of the schedule, So we'll see how that

1578
01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:34,479
Speaker 3: goes and how what that means to whether the Bills

1579
01:16:34,520 --> 01:16:35,479
Speaker 3: can rest players.

1580
01:16:36,560 --> 01:16:38,400
Speaker 1: We have to take a break here. When we come

1581
01:16:38,439 --> 01:16:39,559
Speaker 1: back more of your phone calls.

1582
01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:41,439
Speaker 2: We'll lead off with Matt in Buffalo, who has a

1583
01:16:41,479 --> 01:16:44,519
Speaker 2: football relationship hotline question. We'll get to that when we

1584
01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:47,200
Speaker 2: return here on one Bills Live presented by Colid of Health.

1585
01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:48,599
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bills Radio.

1586
01:17:04,120 --> 01:17:04,200
Speaker 7: Right.

1587
01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:06,080
Speaker 2: We'll get right back to your calls in just a second,

1588
01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:08,880
Speaker 2: but first we have Game day Mentality presented by Best

1589
01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:13,280
Speaker 2: Self Best Self Behavioral Health, the official mental health partner

1590
01:17:13,720 --> 01:17:16,600
Speaker 2: of the Buffalo Bills. So, Steve, you go into this

1591
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:20,200
Speaker 2: game as a Bills team that has already got two

1592
01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:23,120
Speaker 2: pelts on the wall, having beaten the two best teams

1593
01:17:23,800 --> 01:17:27,879
Speaker 2: in either conference, beat the Chiefs, and beat the Lions

1594
01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:30,320
Speaker 2: in the span of the last four or five weeks.

1595
01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:34,280
Speaker 2: Now you are playing a three and eleven Patriots team.

1596
01:17:34,760 --> 01:17:37,519
Speaker 2: How do you keep your game day mentality on point

1597
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:41,600
Speaker 2: when you're facing a team that many consider one of

1598
01:17:41,680 --> 01:17:43,400
Speaker 2: the sub standard clubs.

1599
01:17:43,160 --> 01:17:43,559
Speaker 1: In the league.

1600
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:47,240
Speaker 3: We'll say, I think this is where coaching staff earns

1601
01:17:47,280 --> 01:17:49,040
Speaker 3: its metal. You got to have your guys ready, and

1602
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:53,400
Speaker 3: I think it comes down to them not allowing their

1603
01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:56,800
Speaker 3: team to take a day off too, And I get

1604
01:17:56,800 --> 01:18:01,439
Speaker 3: it too. Mentally. I'm talking about everybody got to take

1605
01:18:01,439 --> 01:18:03,040
Speaker 3: a day off and they got to have walkthroughs and

1606
01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:05,240
Speaker 3: do all that stuff like they got to. But mentally,

1607
01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:08,200
Speaker 3: you got to bear down as a coaching staff and

1608
01:18:08,280 --> 01:18:10,439
Speaker 3: you got to give your players something that will excite

1609
01:18:10,479 --> 01:18:14,000
Speaker 3: them about this game. New wrinkles in the offense, some

1610
01:18:14,160 --> 01:18:17,639
Speaker 3: experimentation with personnel, some opportunities for guys who haven't gotten

1611
01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:21,240
Speaker 3: them before, a new a challenge for your offensive line,

1612
01:18:21,320 --> 01:18:24,080
Speaker 3: some opportunities for guys. You know, Uh, this is one

1613
01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:26,519
Speaker 3: of those games where you've got to keep it juiced

1614
01:18:26,600 --> 01:18:28,479
Speaker 3: up for the guys to like engage, say all right,

1615
01:18:28,560 --> 01:18:29,880
Speaker 3: this is gonna be fun. This is gonna be fun.

1616
01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:32,880
Speaker 3: We're gonna you know, we're gonna get you know, a

1617
01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:35,280
Speaker 3: big a big guy touchdown this week. Or we're gonna

1618
01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:37,040
Speaker 3: we got a chance to run a fake punt this week,

1619
01:18:37,120 --> 01:18:38,960
Speaker 3: or we gotta do you know, something to spice it

1620
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:43,559
Speaker 3: up and get the guys engaged and all the that's

1621
01:18:43,600 --> 01:18:45,400
Speaker 3: the kind of thing that gets the guys juiced up

1622
01:18:45,439 --> 01:18:47,160
Speaker 3: a little bit. Say all right, let's go. I want

1623
01:18:47,200 --> 01:18:50,600
Speaker 3: to give ourselves a chance to run this stuff. And

1624
01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:55,080
Speaker 3: that's how you keep it energized for your team. But

1625
01:18:55,160 --> 01:18:57,320
Speaker 3: it comes down to your coaching staff and now they

1626
01:18:57,360 --> 01:18:59,000
Speaker 3: may have their hand on the pulls of this, and

1627
01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:03,000
Speaker 3: your leaders also like Josh, I mean, he's not letting up.

1628
01:19:03,080 --> 01:19:05,160
Speaker 3: They're not taking their foot off the gas. You're James Cook,

1629
01:19:05,240 --> 01:19:06,760
Speaker 3: you know, in the Dawson Knoxes of the world and

1630
01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:10,080
Speaker 3: Dion Dawkins of the world, those guys should also be saying, hey,

1631
01:19:10,160 --> 01:19:12,160
Speaker 3: let's go none, let's know none of that. Let's go

1632
01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:14,400
Speaker 3: let's get bear down a little bit here. It's on

1633
01:19:14,560 --> 01:19:15,120
Speaker 3: them as well.

1634
01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:18,599
Speaker 2: So that is the game day mentality presented by Best

1635
01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:22,200
Speaker 2: Self Behavioral Health. Back to the phones and with a

1636
01:19:22,240 --> 01:19:26,040
Speaker 2: football relationship hotline question is Matt in Buffalo?

1637
01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:27,240
Speaker 1: What do you got for? Is Matt? You're on One

1638
01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:27,720
Speaker 1: Bill's Live.

1639
01:19:28,720 --> 01:19:31,400
Speaker 7: Hey, buddy, how are you doing good? I have one

1640
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:35,920
Speaker 7: You guys always talk about the game, trying to, you know,

1641
01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:38,599
Speaker 7: figure out the game thing. I've got a big problem.

1642
01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:39,080
Speaker 5: Okay.

1643
01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:43,120
Speaker 7: I watched One Bill's Live from one to three every day. Okay.

1644
01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:48,560
Speaker 7: And my wife works midnights as a nurse, so she

1645
01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:52,160
Speaker 7: usually wakes up around one one thirty in the afternoon, right,

1646
01:19:52,840 --> 01:19:56,240
Speaker 7: and she knows that this is my routine and all that. Well,

1647
01:19:56,280 --> 01:20:00,280
Speaker 7: when you guys are off on Monday and Tuesday day,

1648
01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:03,840
Speaker 7: for instance, she goes, what are you watching? It's not

1649
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:07,760
Speaker 7: one Bill's Live. So she figured out you guys weren't on,

1650
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:12,080
Speaker 7: and then on Tuesday, I'm making doilies. Can't you guys

1651
01:20:12,160 --> 01:20:14,800
Speaker 7: put me like the chef on or something, you know,

1652
01:20:15,000 --> 01:20:18,200
Speaker 7: they talk about the bill's diet or a random usher

1653
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:22,759
Speaker 7: to talk about how the fans could enjoy their experience.

1654
01:20:22,800 --> 01:20:23,960
Speaker 7: How do I get out of this one?

1655
01:20:24,439 --> 01:20:27,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we're on Monday and Tuesday. So actually

1656
01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:28,880
Speaker 2: on Monday we have a three hour show. We're on

1657
01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:29,639
Speaker 2: noon to three.

1658
01:20:31,240 --> 01:20:34,760
Speaker 1: So maybe you're when was this month?

1659
01:20:34,880 --> 01:20:35,880
Speaker 7: This last Monday?

1660
01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:37,880
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, okay, So I think I know what the

1661
01:20:37,960 --> 01:20:41,920
Speaker 2: problem is here, Matt. We actually had a problem with

1662
01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:43,800
Speaker 2: MSG airing the show.

1663
01:20:44,280 --> 01:20:45,439
Speaker 1: Because you're not alone in this.

1664
01:20:45,960 --> 01:20:49,439
Speaker 2: This was more of a snaffoo with the cable and

1665
01:20:49,760 --> 01:20:53,439
Speaker 2: streaming service carriers carrying the show. We're working to get

1666
01:20:53,479 --> 01:20:54,280
Speaker 2: to the bottom of that.

1667
01:20:55,400 --> 01:20:58,320
Speaker 1: That was not our fault. We were on and you

1668
01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:01,680
Speaker 1: can always slip over. Yeah, I don't blame you.

1669
01:21:01,720 --> 01:21:04,760
Speaker 2: I don't like making doilies either, because wow, that is

1670
01:21:04,840 --> 01:21:09,040
Speaker 2: a that is a negative outcome for and you should

1671
01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:11,880
Speaker 2: be taking your issue up with your cable carrier.

1672
01:21:12,520 --> 01:21:15,240
Speaker 1: We are trying to get answers to that as well.

1673
01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:17,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, we started learning about it.

1674
01:21:17,640 --> 01:21:18,640
Speaker 1: What zip code are you in?

1675
01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:21,639
Speaker 7: One four, two, one zero?

1676
01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:24,639
Speaker 2: Okay, thanks, because we're taking down all the zip codes

1677
01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:27,640
Speaker 2: that are affected, and it's gone from Buffalo all the

1678
01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:29,840
Speaker 2: way out to Rochester where the show airs as well

1679
01:21:30,400 --> 01:21:32,600
Speaker 2: that are having problems on Monday and Tuesday. There are

1680
01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:34,959
Speaker 2: other people who like to tape the show with DVR

1681
01:21:35,640 --> 01:21:38,000
Speaker 2: and they're having problems doing that as well. So I'm

1682
01:21:38,040 --> 01:21:40,560
Speaker 2: glad you brought that up because we are trying to

1683
01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:44,200
Speaker 2: remedy that issue with the cable carriers and streaming series.

1684
01:21:44,280 --> 01:21:46,080
Speaker 3: We had no idea that we some people were not

1685
01:21:46,120 --> 01:21:49,080
Speaker 3: seeing us until it started coming throwing our social media feed.

1686
01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:52,360
Speaker 7: Steve, are you gonna be at Thurman's party?

1687

01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:16,760
Speaker 4: I gotta go.

1697
01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:21,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, Steve's schedule fills up fast. Yeah, he's very much

1698
01:22:21,320 --> 01:22:22,320
Speaker 1: like I've got a butterfly.

1699
01:22:22,439 --> 01:22:23,479
Speaker 3: I've got an event tonight.

1700
01:22:23,520 --> 01:22:24,160
Speaker 1: I've got to go to.

1701
01:22:24,560 --> 01:22:26,080
Speaker 3: I get to go to, not gotta go to.

1702
01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:29,439
Speaker 2: But Matt, you're you know, you're trying to keep yourself

1703
01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:32,720
Speaker 2: tied to your football schedule this time of year, and

1704
01:22:32,840 --> 01:22:35,759
Speaker 2: then something like this snap foo pops up and before

1705
01:22:35,800 --> 01:22:38,200
Speaker 2: you know it, your wife's got your making Doiley's probably

1706
01:22:38,240 --> 01:22:43,240
Speaker 2: in advance of your hosting of Christmas. Yeah, if if

1707
01:22:43,360 --> 01:22:45,360
Speaker 2: Plan A is out the window, you've got to go

1708
01:22:45,479 --> 01:22:48,280
Speaker 2: right to plan B, which is, if we're not showing

1709
01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:50,040
Speaker 2: up on your television screen, you have to go right

1710
01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:52,719
Speaker 2: to your radio. And since you live in the Buffalo area,

1711
01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:55,560
Speaker 2: you just put on a M five fifty right and

1712
01:22:55,680 --> 01:22:57,400
Speaker 2: there we are on the radio for you, and you

1713
01:22:57,560 --> 01:22:59,719
Speaker 2: just say, oh, they're just not on TV TV today.

1714
01:22:59,800 --> 01:23:03,680
Speaker 2: Now there is there is the counter argument to that

1715
01:23:04,360 --> 01:23:07,519
Speaker 2: where the wife might say, well you can listen while

1716
01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:10,800
Speaker 2: you work, so you're still up a tree. So that's

1717
01:23:10,840 --> 01:23:13,600
Speaker 2: where you have to come up with anything else that

1718
01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:16,679
Speaker 2: you would rather do than make doilies, and get real busy,

1719
01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:17,800
Speaker 2: real fast doing that.

1720
01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:20,679
Speaker 3: And also, I don't are we on all next week

1721
01:23:20,760 --> 01:23:23,240
Speaker 3: or we off on Christmas Day? That's the only day

1722
01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:25,920
Speaker 3: right off on Christmas. We're on Christmas, We're on Monday,

1723
01:23:26,439 --> 01:23:31,240
Speaker 3: We're on Tuesday, and then Thursday, Friday, we're off Wednesday.

1724
01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:36,200
Speaker 2: So yeah, look, if you can't find us on a

1725
01:23:36,280 --> 01:23:39,479
Speaker 2: given day on TV, and again we're working to remedy

1726
01:23:39,560 --> 01:23:41,679
Speaker 2: that problem for the people that do watch us on MSG,

1727
01:23:42,280 --> 01:23:45,280
Speaker 2: flip on the radio AM five fifty and then get

1728
01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:48,639
Speaker 2: to busy, get busy to doing something that you'd prefer

1729
01:23:48,720 --> 01:23:51,040
Speaker 2: to do rather than making doilies before your wife comes

1730
01:23:51,120 --> 01:23:53,080
Speaker 2: downstairs or in the room and says, hey, if you're

1731
01:23:53,080 --> 01:23:56,479
Speaker 2: not doing anything, let's do this. So, whether you're balancing

1732
01:23:56,560 --> 01:23:59,559
Speaker 2: the checkbook or anything else that you think is better

1733
01:23:59,640 --> 01:24:01,960
Speaker 2: than make Doiley's get await.

1734
01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:02,280
Speaker 10: To doing it.

1735
01:24:02,439 --> 01:24:04,160
Speaker 3: And let me tell you something. Let me just give

1736
01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:05,559
Speaker 3: you a piece of advice from a guy who has

1737
01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:10,200
Speaker 3: had to look busy in the past. Make it high intensity,

1738
01:24:10,280 --> 01:24:11,959
Speaker 3: make it like you are. It's important.

1739
01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:15,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right.

1740
01:24:16,439 --> 01:24:18,840
Speaker 2: I mean, think of George Costanza and Seinfeld when he

1741
01:24:18,960 --> 01:24:22,320
Speaker 2: was working for the Yankees, and he had everybody convinced

1742
01:24:22,560 --> 01:24:25,559
Speaker 2: he was working in a high stress job because anytime

1743
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:28,680
Speaker 2: anybody walked past his office, he was screaming at a

1744
01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:31,720
Speaker 2: fictitious person on the phone. He was slamming down a

1745
01:24:31,760 --> 01:24:35,280
Speaker 2: clipboard like he was stressed beyond belief, and nobody bothered him.

1746
01:24:35,880 --> 01:24:37,920
Speaker 2: That's a that's an approach you can take too, although

1747
01:24:38,080 --> 01:24:41,280
Speaker 2: something tells me your wife's probably smarter than that. But

1748
01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:45,320
Speaker 2: let's move along and we go to Carol in Tanawanda.

1749
01:24:45,360 --> 01:24:45,880
Speaker 1: What do you got for us?

1750
01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:49,400
Speaker 17: Carol, Hi, gentlemen, I have three topics to talk to

1751
01:24:49,479 --> 01:24:52,240
Speaker 17: you about today. One is the MVP, Rays Collins and

1752
01:24:52,360 --> 01:24:55,080
Speaker 17: the chiefs. I watch you every day, but the last

1753
01:24:55,120 --> 01:24:58,400
Speaker 17: time I had conversation with you was last year regarding

1754
01:24:58,439 --> 01:25:02,080
Speaker 17: the MVP race and looking for criteria. We couldn't find it.

1755
01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:05,679
Speaker 17: But this is a new year, and you know with Buffalo,

1756
01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:08,639
Speaker 17: you have to prove yourself ten times over before anyone

1757
01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:12,479
Speaker 17: recognizes the accomplishments. But I want to give you both

1758
01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:15,400
Speaker 17: kudos because Stee for you speaking up to the other

1759
01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:18,200
Speaker 17: news announcers when they were here for a big game

1760
01:25:18,280 --> 01:25:22,160
Speaker 17: and talking about Alan's staff last year, compared to Jackson's

1761
01:25:22,479 --> 01:25:24,960
Speaker 17: and you, Brownie, for being so heated over the last

1762
01:25:25,040 --> 01:25:28,000
Speaker 17: couple of days about you know, the success of the team.

1763
01:25:28,479 --> 01:25:32,240
Speaker 17: You know, keep beating that drum, keep touting the accomplishments.

1764
01:25:32,720 --> 01:25:34,880
Speaker 17: The only thing I'm concerned about is I hope they

1765
01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:38,200
Speaker 17: don't screw Alan over by giving the MVP to a

1766
01:25:38,360 --> 01:25:42,639
Speaker 17: non quarterback person like Barkley or someone else. We set

1767
01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:45,200
Speaker 17: the precedence that it's been a quarterback and it should

1768
01:25:45,240 --> 01:25:48,679
Speaker 17: be a quarterback. We could certainly have conversation that maybe

1769
01:25:48,720 --> 01:25:51,760
Speaker 17: there needs to be an MVP for a different type

1770
01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:54,960
Speaker 17: of player. That might be something to consider. But I

1771
01:25:55,120 --> 01:25:57,559
Speaker 17: was really proud of both of you, and let's keep

1772
01:25:57,920 --> 01:26:00,840
Speaker 17: touting that success of Alan. The other thing I want

1773
01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:04,080
Speaker 17: to say is Holland Hollands. I liked him since the

1774
01:26:04,160 --> 01:26:06,759
Speaker 17: first time he played, when he was making the catches

1775
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:09,880
Speaker 17: and the black said he's throwing. He just seems like

1776
01:26:09,920 --> 01:26:12,680
Speaker 17: a happy, go lucky guy out on the field. I

1777
01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:15,480
Speaker 17: love to play football, and you can see as contagious

1778
01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:18,960
Speaker 17: on the team. They're playing happier, they're playing lighter this year,

1779
01:26:19,520 --> 01:26:22,439
Speaker 17: and I just hope that their success continues. And the

1780
01:26:22,600 --> 01:26:25,040
Speaker 17: last thing is I hope someone could figure out their

1781
01:26:25,240 --> 01:26:28,519
Speaker 17: chiefs magical elipta at the end of the games where

1782
01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:31,320
Speaker 17: Mahomes runs for thirty then they throw to Kelsey and

1783
01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:34,640
Speaker 17: maybe as great as time and Bucker kicks kicks the

1784
01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:37,800
Speaker 17: winning field goal. That's all I have to say. I'll

1785
01:26:37,800 --> 01:26:39,719
Speaker 17: wait to hear what you have to say in Happy

1786
01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:40,880
Speaker 17: holidays to both of you.

1787
01:26:41,080 --> 01:26:44,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks you, thanks, Carol, good stuff. Yeah, you're right. Yeah,

1788
01:26:44,640 --> 01:26:47,200
Speaker 3: Brownie and I are humping for Josh as much as anybody,

1789
01:26:47,280 --> 01:26:51,960
Speaker 3: and we've kind of accumulated some pros and cons to

1790
01:26:52,320 --> 01:26:55,280
Speaker 3: pros for Josh's MVP case and cons to the other guys.

1791
01:26:55,640 --> 01:26:59,519
Speaker 3: But the thing is, I kind of just cheer for

1792
01:26:59,600 --> 01:27:02,360
Speaker 3: our guys. I kind of hate undercutting other guys because listen,

1793
01:27:02,560 --> 01:27:05,400
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson is having a fantastic here, and so's Saquon Barkley,

1794
01:27:05,880 --> 01:27:08,600
Speaker 3: Soo's Derrick Henry. There's some other guys out there. But

1795
01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:11,160
Speaker 3: you're right, there are some other There's Offensive Player of

1796
01:27:11,160 --> 01:27:13,000
Speaker 3: the Year, which I think Saquon Barkley is a great

1797
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:15,599
Speaker 3: candidate for. There's Defensive Player of the Year, which Jared

1798
01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:18,840
Speaker 3: Vers might get. There's some other stuff out there. You're right,

1799
01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:21,519
Speaker 3: Hollins has kind of made it fun and you get

1800
01:27:21,560 --> 01:27:24,160
Speaker 3: the idea and some of us project ourselves onto it

1801
01:27:24,479 --> 01:27:27,559
Speaker 3: as well, Like Mac Hollins is the reason the team

1802
01:27:27,680 --> 01:27:29,800
Speaker 3: is so happy and so joyful. And I think a

1803
01:27:29,880 --> 01:27:31,639
Speaker 3: lot of it has to do with Holland's and Josh

1804
01:27:31,880 --> 01:27:34,280
Speaker 3: and the way they're playing and the wins that they're getting.

1805
01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:38,000
Speaker 3: But yeah, Mac Hollins, I think, and I've said this

1806
01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:41,799
Speaker 3: a lot this week, I think he has found himself

1807
01:27:42,240 --> 01:27:45,320
Speaker 3: a home that he has not experienced throughout his eight

1808
01:27:45,400 --> 01:27:47,439
Speaker 3: or nine year career in the NFL. He is I

1809
01:27:47,560 --> 01:27:51,400
Speaker 3: think he acts like he's happier here than he's been

1810
01:27:51,520 --> 01:27:54,560
Speaker 3: other places. I think that has shown in his productivity.

1811
01:27:56,200 --> 01:27:57,920
Speaker 3: You have to ask him for that, but it certainly

1812
01:27:57,960 --> 01:27:58,760
Speaker 3: looks that way to me.

1813
01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:01,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have to take a break here, but when

1814
01:28:01,520 --> 01:28:03,240
Speaker 2: we come back, we'll close things up. On a Wednesday

1815
01:28:03,360 --> 01:28:04,200
Speaker 2: edition of One Bill's Live.

1816
01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:24,920
Speaker 1: Stay with Us all right, final segment here on a

1817
01:28:24,960 --> 01:28:27,080
Speaker 1: Wednesday Chris Brown, Steve task me with you here on

1818
01:28:27,160 --> 01:28:29,240
Speaker 1: One Bill's Live. Sorry, we don't have a chance to

1819
01:28:29,280 --> 01:28:30,479
Speaker 1: squeeze in another phone call.

1820
01:28:30,560 --> 01:28:32,360
Speaker 2: We've only got about a minute left here in the show,

1821
01:28:33,200 --> 01:28:36,320
Speaker 2: and we'll have to see how these players make their

1822
01:28:36,360 --> 01:28:38,879
Speaker 2: way through the rest of the practice week, especially tomorrow

1823
01:28:39,320 --> 01:28:42,599
Speaker 2: when they have their only full scale practice of the week.

1824
01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:45,840
Speaker 2: Presumably maybe Friday too, but it will be shorter for

1825
01:28:45,960 --> 01:28:49,080
Speaker 2: some of these injured guys that were limited in practice today,

1826
01:28:49,160 --> 01:28:51,120
Speaker 2: the secondary players that have been nicked up, and then

1827
01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:53,200
Speaker 2: Milano and Samuel who got nicked up in the game

1828
01:28:53,200 --> 01:28:54,640
Speaker 2: along with Dorian Williams.

1829
01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:57,040
Speaker 3: And see how you know how close for Suell Douglas

1830
01:28:57,120 --> 01:28:58,160
Speaker 3: and all those guys can get.

1831
01:28:58,760 --> 01:29:01,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought Kyrie played a pretty solid game last

1832
01:29:01,880 --> 01:29:03,880
Speaker 2: week at the pass breakup on a pass over the

1833
01:29:03,920 --> 01:29:08,240
Speaker 2: middle deep in Buffalo territory, looked pretty good in the

1834
01:29:08,320 --> 01:29:13,400
Speaker 2: run game, actually kept Jamison Williams from jumping on the

1835
01:29:13,479 --> 01:29:16,679
Speaker 2: forest fumble by Christian Benford. We watch after the balls

1836
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:19,280
Speaker 2: punched loose, Elam and Jamison Williams are the two closest

1837
01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:21,680
Speaker 2: guys to the football and he boxes him out and

1838
01:29:21,880 --> 01:29:23,720
Speaker 2: Mulano's able to get there and scoop up the ball.

1839
01:29:23,920 --> 01:29:25,600
Speaker 3: I did a nice job on that, and that's you know,

1840
01:29:25,720 --> 01:29:29,720
Speaker 3: that was absolutely critical play. Yeah, fun. I'm sure he

1841
01:29:29,760 --> 01:29:31,719
Speaker 3: feels good about getting some reps in as well.

1842
01:29:31,680 --> 01:29:33,880
Speaker 1: And so based on the availability other guys, he might

1843
01:29:33,920 --> 01:29:36,320
Speaker 1: play again this week. That's all for us today.

1844
01:29:36,960 --> 01:29:40,280
Speaker 2: ESPN's Field Yates and the Hall of Famer Thurman Thomas

1845
01:29:40,439 --> 01:29:42,360
Speaker 2: on the show tomorrow, so we'll see you for a
