Yeah, 9 00:00:59,480 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 3: tying up. 10 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 2: The to do list is long. Let's just say that. 11 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: Can you imagine because after you get the staff together, 12 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: then you're on to the next thing. Then you got 13 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: to do all the briefings with the personnel department, you 14 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: know on the free agent class. Right, then you get 15 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: your assignments with respect to the draft class. Hey, watch 16 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 1: film on this guy. Tell me what you think you know? 17 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 1: And then it's hey, oh, by the way, this offensive 18 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: scheme and defensive scheme and special team scheme that we're 19 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: working on, that's got to be ready earlier than usual. 20 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: Because new head coaches start the off season program a 21 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: week earlier. 22 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 3: You can get an extra week, I think too. We 23 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:43,279 Speaker 3: saw it as with Sean McDermott as they got into 24 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 3: deeper and deeper into his era, they could felt like 25 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 3: they had to do less and less in the OTAs 26 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 3: and the mini camps, and it got easier, it got 27 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 3: less and less frantic. And I'm pretty sure they're going 28 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 3: to go right back to every minute you got to 29 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 3: be here for every Yeah, all of that. It's they 30 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 3: got a lot to install. They do not defensively, I 31 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 3: guess yeah. 32 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 2: And special team I think too. 33 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,119 Speaker 3: The atmosphere of the league is there's more. There's absolutely 34 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 3: more turnover in your roster year to year on a 35 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 3: team by team basis always. 36 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: Why let me ask you this, because you went through 37 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: this change once when you went from the Oilers special 38 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: teams schemes to that of the Bills. How much of 39 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: a change was that going from one to the other. 40 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 3: Well, it was big. 41 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 2: I mean it was mid season, so that's a little different. 42 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 3: It wasn't as vast as some because think about this. 43 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 3: I went from going to the Oilers, who had a 44 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 3: special teams coordinator, Al Roberts, very great guy, he was 45 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 3: a good coach. Al Roberts as a special teams cordner 46 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 3: to the Bills, who, at the time, just before Marv 47 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 3: got it, they didn't have a special teams coordinator. It 48 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 3: was Elijah Pitch did the punt team, and Jim rie 49 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 3: Go did the field goal team, and another coach did 50 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:04,399 Speaker 3: another punt turn team. 51 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 2: It was piecemeal. 52 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 3: It was piecemeal. That's way it was before the onset 53 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 3: of the roster enlargement and all that. So I come 54 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 3: to buffaloed. The head coach is kind of takes it 55 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 3: over and this is how we're gonna do it. He 56 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 3: you know. So it was it was a little bit 57 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 3: like it was the Oilers. It wouldn't have been as 58 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 3: vast had not the coaching change. 59 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 4: Yeah. 60 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 1: The only reason I'm asking that is I'm wondering if 61 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: a change with the special teams coach represents as great 62 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: a learning curve as a new defensive or offensive scheme might. 63 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 2: Here's the thing I'm thinking in my minds. 64 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: I the playbook for special teams is probably smaller than 65 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: it is for offense and defense generally speaking. 66 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, it it is, but it's the basics. The bare 67 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 3: bone the bones of special teams is punt punt return, kickoff, kickoffers. 68 00:03:58,800 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 2: Right. 69 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 3: Few defense is a little bit in there too, but 70 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 3: it's punt punt return, kickoff, kickoff return, and most a 71 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 3: lot of guys, hardcore guys play on all four of them, right, 72 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 3: So you're doing both sides of the ball on the 73 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 3: same play. And it's more about individual technique. If you're 74 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 3: playing the wing, you got to learn how to play 75 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 3: that position, and if it's you know, if you're punt return, 76 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 3: you got to learn. If you're double team and guys 77 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 3: on the outside, it is about individual So it's position 78 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 3: specifics in my team specific In my opinion, it's both 79 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 3: on both sides of the ball. I mean it's but 80 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 3: in special teams, it's all about how you play that position. 81 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 3: And you know, it's it's not as easy as it 82 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 3: looks like to move in three feet and go from 83 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 3: play and tackle on punt team to guard on punt team. 84 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 3: So it's it's a lot about that special teams coordinators 85 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 3: ability to teach you exactly what he's looking for in 86 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 3: this technique play. And I want you to play the 87 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 3: wing back on the punt, and here's what I want 88 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 3: you to do. As opposed to this guy saying you're 89 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: gonna play wing back on the punt, go get it done. 90 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 3: That happens on both sides. 91 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: Because I'm just trying to envision for someone like say 92 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: Dorian Williams or Joe Andreeson, who are defensive players who 93 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: play on special teams, They're going to have a new 94 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: defensive system to learn and a new special teams coordinator 95 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: under which to learn. And I'm trying to formulate in 96 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: my head how big a curve that is. The two 97 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: phases of the game on which you play are both 98 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: going to be different this offseason. 99 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 3: It's big, especially the defensive thing is very big. Right. 100 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 3: The thing about special teams is you learn a new 101 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 3: scheme every week. You're not doing the exact same thing, 102 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 3: which is I mean, it's philosophically different every week. So 103 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 3: that kind of change you're used to, yes, every week 104 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 3: anything that kind of special teams changes par for the course. 105 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 3: It's nothing new, and it's you know that it's a 106 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 3: play that covers so much ground that you know, once 107 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 3: you start sprinting, you know you have rules, but. 108 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to play off the guys stuff. 109 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 3: Well, you have rules to follow it and depends Like 110 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 3: when I was a punt gunner, my rule was, you know, 111 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 3: don't get knocked off. You don't get knocked go get 112 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 3: make the tackle. I mean that's basically it I had 113 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 3: and I had no rules except what the league gave me. 114 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 3: And you know, my thing was to go down and 115 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 3: make the guy mess it up or tackle him. So 116 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 3: that that kind of freewheeling stuff is, if is part 117 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 3: and parcel of what special teams and why it's so 118 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 3: hard for some guys and so easy for others. And 119 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 3: you got to have the right guys and the right 120 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 3: mentality in there. But philosophically you can change night and 121 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 3: day from one week to the next, and special teams 122 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 3: punt return, kick return, that kind of thing and coverages. 123 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: You have certain things you want to remember for certain returners. 124 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 3: Tim Brown was a lot different than Mel Gray, you 125 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 3: know kind of thing, and Dion had his own rules, 126 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,559 Speaker 3: So that kind of stuff. 127 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 2: Look at that. I'm glad I asked that question. 128 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go. Look at that. 129 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 2: You learned something. 130 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 3: Every day. 131 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: We've got to get to some Bills not it's not 132 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: as numerous as they have been in previous days here, 133 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: but ESPN is reporting that the Bills have hired former 134 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals pass game coordinator and wide receivers coach Drew 135 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: Tarrell as their wide receivers coach. The twenty twenty sixth 136 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: season will be Terrell's ninth season coaching in the NFL, 137 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: so one of the latest additions to the staff which 138 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: will continue to get filled out, and I would anticipate 139 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: that at least a few coaches from the previous offensive 140 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: staff will be retained. We'll see who those people are 141 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: when the final announcement is made that here's the twenty 142 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: twenty six Bills coaching staff under Joe Brady. Defense is 143 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: a different story, obviously, because a lot is changing there 144 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: under Jim Leonard. But that's the only new news with 145 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,679 Speaker 1: regard to Buffalo's coaching staff. Let's go around the NFL 146 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: presented by Kalida Health, the official healthcare system of the 147 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills, and in his State of the League address 148 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: at the site of the Super Bowl on Monday, NFL 149 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: Commissioner Roger Goodell was asked about the prospect of an 150 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: eighteen game regular season, and Goodell said, quote, it's not 151 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: a given. We have not had any formal discussions, meaning 152 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: with the NFLPA, and among the questions that need to 153 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: be discussed are what are the roster sizes? Are there 154 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 1: two bye weeks and what are the union's priorities. If 155 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: we move to an eighteen game regular. 156 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 3: Season, it's time for them to adopt the Tasker plan. 157 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 3: That's all I'm saying. Yes, you got to start the 158 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 3: regular season two weeks before Labor Day, take Labor Day 159 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 3: off league wide, give us a holiday, two regular preseason games, 160 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 3: two regular season games, then the Labor Day holiday, and 161 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 3: then it's a sixteen game schedule with a bye week 162 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 3: sprinkled in for everybody. That's the way to do it, 163 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 3: because that moves the back of the season up closer 164 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 3: to the first of the year. 165 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: I think the other element that will be a part 166 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 1: of that is by the time you get to an 167 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: eighteen game regular season, I believe that the league will 168 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: be playing sixteen games overseas maybe and I think eight 169 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: as if you want to make it easy. And they 170 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: probably won't do this because they want to make these 171 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 1: games showcases for the locales in which they play and 172 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 1: almost have them as standalone as possible, if you will. 173 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: But I think in an eye deal world, you take 174 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: eight international games, they're all in the same week this week, 175 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 1: all those teams are by the next week, and then 176 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: you get your other eight international games another week, and 177 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 1: you buy them after that week and there are your 178 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 1: two buys. 179 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, except that, except that, like this year, they'll have 180 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 3: to do a little different they do this year because 181 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 3: London's got three of these games, right, so they can't 182 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 3: play three games in one place, unless unless you play 183 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 3: a Thursday night. 184 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 2: Game Thursday night and then Sunday. 185 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: Right, yeah, yeah you can do that, but there you 186 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 1: have tough on a Yeah, exactly, that's a logistical nightmare. 187 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 3: But I still think the league should do that. They 188 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 3: should start the season a couple of weeks, or be 189 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 3: three weeks. 190 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 2: Well, your preseason is shorter anyway, What. 191 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 3: The heck's you have two preseason games, do those and 192 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 3: then the next week, presto change. Oh, you start the 193 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 3: regular season, and then two weeks in you get everybody 194 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 3: gets a buy week, take a breath, have the Labor Day, 195 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 3: hobday at national time, and then you know, let baseball 196 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 3: have a weekend and then or whatever, and then you know, boom, 197 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 3: you're back at it. Plus preseason injuries, you get a 198 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 3: chance to get an extra weekend there with. If you 199 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 3: miss the first two games, you're gonna have it like 200 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 3: a whole month before you get into the medior season. 201 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 3: Kind of thing the first two weeks is a it'll 202 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 3: be a great chance for teams to do their analytics, 203 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 3: get a couple of really good preseason or regular season 204 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 3: games under their belt, then have a look at themselves, 205 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 3: study it up, and then have a better You get 206 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,439 Speaker 3: better football earlier in the season after the bye. 207 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I get where you're coming from. 208 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 3: That's a come on, man, that's a great way to go. 209 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: I don't dislike it. The commissioner also addressed the recent 210 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: coaching cycle in which there was one hiring of a 211 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 1: minority candidate for a head coaching role out of ten. 212 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: Roger Goodell said the league would take a closer look 213 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: at the Rooney Rule and all that it encompasses to 214 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 1: continue to make progress on diversity. Goodell said, quote, I 215 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: think we have become a more diverse league across every platform, 216 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: including coaching, but we still have more work to do. 217 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 2: End quote. 218 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: Robert Salah is the only minority candidate who was hired 219 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: in a head coaching role. He is of Lebanese descent, 220 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 1: if I remember correctly. The Giants have an offensive coordinator. 221 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: John Harbaugh is hiring former Chiefs coordinator Matt Naggy to 222 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: be his offensive play caller. 223 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:36,599 Speaker 2: Harbaugh was the first coach hired of the ten open positions. 224 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 2: He's just landing his OC now. 225 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,719 Speaker 1: I know he was waiting on Todd Monkin, who was 226 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 1: waiting to see if he would get a head coaching job, 227 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: and he did last week in Cleveland, So maybe that's. 228 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 2: Part of the delay there. 229 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: But it seems as though the staff has come together 230 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 1: somewhat sluggishly for John Harbaugh with the New York Giants. 231 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't know if that it probably doesn't 232 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: mean anything, but it's interesting that it hasn't come together 233 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: quicker while meanwhile, other coaches who were hired after him 234 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: have seemingly assembled stabs more efficiently than him. So I'm 235 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 1: not one hundred percent sure what he's waiting for, or 236 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 1: maybe he's who he might be waiting on. But maybe 237 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: it's somebody on these two staffs in the Super Bowl. 238 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 2: We'll have to wait and see. 239 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: Jets completed in person interviews with veteran coaches Daryl Bevll 240 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: and Greg Roman for their offensive coordinator job. Roman was 241 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: most recently the OC for the Chargers. Bevll was most 242 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: recently the quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator with Miami 243 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,719 Speaker 1: under Mike McDaniel. Cleveland Browns are hiring Travis Switzer is 244 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: their offensive coordinator. Switzer will join Cleveland from Baltimore, where 245 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: he coached for nine seasons and last served as the 246 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:51,479 Speaker 1: Ravens run game coordinator. 247 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 2: That makes sense. 248 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: He's going to continue to work under Todd Monkin, the 249 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: new head coach of the Browns, and Patriots owner Robert Kraft. 250 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 1: Like his former head coach, Bill Belichick, was not selected 251 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: for entry into this year's Pro Football Hall of Fame class. 252 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: ESPN is reporting that the class of twenty twenty six 253 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: will be revealed in full Thursday at the NFL Honors 254 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 1: event in San Francisco. So no Belichick, no Craft in 255 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six Hall of Fame class. 256 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 3: Surprise No. 257 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: And the only reason I say that is after investigating 258 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: the perceived Belichick snub and knowing how the voting works. 259 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: I think there are a lot of Hall of Fame 260 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: selectors that looked at people like Roger Craig and ELC. 261 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:47,119 Speaker 1: Greenwood and Ken Anderson who have been overlooked for decades 262 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: and said, these guys have been waiting a long time. 263 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: They deserve to go in. We may never get them 264 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: on this thumbs up or thumbs down list. 265 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 2: Again, Let's get him in. 266 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: Now, Craft and Belichick are gonna get in, no matter 267 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: what they're they're shoeing's for the Hall of Fame. Let's 268 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: make sure we get these guys in. I think it 269 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: was more that a little bit of that, any kind 270 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: of snubbing that people are trying to make this out 271 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: to be honest to goodness, right. 272 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 3: Uh and mister Craft has I say, mister Robert Kraft 273 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 3: has been nominated I think for like fourteen years. I 274 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 3: mean he's been on the ballot for a while. Yeah, 275 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 3: and that include you know, that was after probably after 276 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 3: the first three Super Bowls, let alone the ten that 277 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 3: they've been to and the seven that they've won. He also, uh, 278 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 3: you forget he's also was the owner when Parcels got 279 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 3: the Patriots to the right, so he's done it with 280 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 3: Uh they lost to the Packers different different head coaches 281 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 3: as well. So it seems to me, Yeah, it seems 282 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 3: to me no question that those are two more than worthy, 283 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 3: resumes to you know, Belichick and Craft. I get the 284 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: pushback on it and all of that. Uh, And you're right, 285 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 3: Roger Craigs, the else, Greenwoods and the Kenny Anderson's of 286 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 3: the world. Hopefully those guys get in the great deserved it. 287 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: I would think the odds are up that they are 288 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 1: going to get in. Knowing Craft and Belichick are not 289 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: that take, you tend to think more of the votes 290 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: went that way, right exactly. 291 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 3: We'll see Thursday after tomorrow they'll find out, and you know, 292 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 3: hopefully those guys get the nod. Good for them. You 293 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 3: pull form. 294 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: Topic of discussion for you today, what kind of roster 295 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: changes are you looking for from the Bills this off season? 296 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: As we know they've got over twenty unrestricted free agents 297 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: after only having twelve last offseason. They also have three 298 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: restricted free agents, So you let us know what kind 299 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: of roster changes you're looking for from the Bills this offseason. 300 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: You got a new head coach, new defensive coordinator. We 301 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 1: know there's a new special teams coordinator, new OC. Offense 302 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: is staying the same, we anticipate for the most part. 303 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: So you let us know what kind of changes you're 304 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: looking for from the Bills as they try to get 305 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: further than they've gotten the last several years in the postseason. 306 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: Eight oh three zero five point fifty one eighty eight, 307 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 1: five fifty two, five fifty the numbers to get on board, 308 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 1: and we do have open lines for you. We're going 309 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 1: to lead off today with Alex in Charlotte. What's up Alex? 310 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 5: Hey, guys, how you doing today? 311 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 3: Doing good? 312 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 5: We're recovering from our massive snowstorm y'all talked about the 313 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:35,239 Speaker 5: other day. But to answer your question, and it kind 314 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 5: of leads to a question of my own. Outside of 315 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 5: a boundary X receiver, I think we need to lead 316 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 5: the offense alone and unfortunately again focus on the defensive 317 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 5: side of the ball. I would we took a shot 318 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 5: at Joey Bosa last year. It didn't really work out 319 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 5: the way we wanted with all the injuries. But what 320 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 5: my question for you guys is what is the fundamental 321 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 5: difference between a three four and a four to three? 322 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 5: You still rushing four people. You see guys like Michael 323 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 5: Parsons are listed as an outside linebacker, but he's an 324 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 5: edge rusher. He's not going to drop back and coverage. 325 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 5: I guess what needs to happen to be able to 326 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 5: make that switch? And how big is it? 327 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,719 Speaker 3: It's pretty big. I mean, here's what you basically what 328 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 3: it is you've got three defensive linemen with their hand 329 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 3: on the ground, and two guys stand up at the 330 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 3: end of line of scrimmage outside the tackle. So you've 331 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 3: got five guys standing right at the line of scrimmage 332 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 3: in the base look, and then two stand up linebackers 333 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 3: in the gaps between the nose guard and the two 334 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 3: defensive ends. They're called defensive ends. And then you've got 335 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 3: outside linebackers. So there's five guys across it. There's somebody 336 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 3: head up on the center. Then the defensive ends you 337 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 3: can play with their alignment a little bit, and then 338 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 3: two guys standing up outside those defensive ends outside both 339 00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 3: offensive tackles or maybe a tight end. But there's five 340 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 3: guys on the line of scrimmage. Now. The reason some 341 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 3: teams like that is because athletes are easier to find. 342 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 3: Guys on stand up on the outside, don't have to 343 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,119 Speaker 3: be theoretically as big as a defensive end in a 344 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 3: four to three. You can find more guys that are 345 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 3: capable of playing it and set in the edge that 346 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 3: if they're playing already outside a guy rather than a 347 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 3: defensive end who may have a tight end who ends 348 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 3: up outside of him and he's but he's still big 349 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,719 Speaker 3: enough as the end comes down or the tight end 350 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 3: comes down, he can stand up and set the edge anyway. 351 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 3: In the run game, So those guys have to be 352 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 3: a little bigger physically because it's easier to double team them. 353 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 3: Outside linebackers can tend to be a little smaller and 354 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 3: more athletic and fast. All on TJ. Watt And with 355 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 3: five guys on the front, a guy both ends of 356 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage, and the three guys with their 357 00:19:53,600 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 3: hand on the ground, you usually don't rush five, right, So. 358 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 1: But you'll have five in the run front. Right, you 359 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: always have five in the run. The thing is, you 360 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: got three guys with a hand on the ground. Okay, 361 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 1: the all three of those guys are gonna rush, but 362 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: any two of the other four could be. 363 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 3: The fourth guy rushing. So you don't know where that 364 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 3: fourth guy's rushing. So there's a moment where you got 365 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 3: it's harder to set your In my opinion, it's harder 366 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 3: to set your protection against a three to four front 367 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 3: than it is a four to three. 368 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 2: Because there's a multitude of different ways you can rush 369 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 2: those other two. 370 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 3: In a four to three, yes, they can rush any 371 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 3: one of the other three line back stand up linebacker. Sure, 372 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 3: but that's one of three, not one of four. And 373 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 3: if you're gonna say yeah, they can drop their defensive 374 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 3: ends into coverage, the offense will say, please do right, 375 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 3: give us a smaller linebacker to rush this rather than 376 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 3: Greg Russo drop Greg Russeau, let him try and cover 377 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 3: a Khalil Shakir. He can't do it right, So that's 378 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 3: a benefit for the offense. So it it's a fundamental 379 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 3: that's the difference. Now, given the talents and the guys 380 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 3: that each team has on a four to three three four, 381 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 3: they can run a three to four and make it 382 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 3: almost look identical in scope and capabilities as a four 383 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 3: to three whatever if they don't have that kind of talent, 384 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 3: or they can make it look vastly different. Uh. And 385 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 3: that freedom is what your talent gives you, what the 386 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 3: roster gives you. So when you switch back and forth, 387 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 3: basically when you're building a roster, a three to four, 388 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 3: in my opinion, a three four is easier to build 389 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 3: a roster around, except for maybe one thing. You need 390 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 3: a you need an alien one percent, one tenth of 391 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 3: one percent human being to play nose guard in a three. 392 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 2: To four, Bill said Dion Walker. 393 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,400 Speaker 3: Dion Walker might be that guy if he can get 394 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 3: his pad level down. You got to have a massive 395 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 3: human being in the center of your defense and another 396 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 3: to back them up. And yeah, you gotta have two 397 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 3: of them. You gotta have guys. And it's not an 398 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 3: Ed Oliver type. This is not a fast, explosive, twitchy guy. 399 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,199 Speaker 3: This is a guy that if three guys try and 400 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 3: push him, it's all they can do to move him. 401 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,959 Speaker 3: Three guys and forget about two two can't do it. 402 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 3: Ted Washington was maybe the all time best nose tackle 403 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 3: in all of football history. He was six four and 404 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 3: he weighed three point fifty plus. Very athletic, very very strong. 405 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 3: His grip strength was unrivaled. The guy was an absolutely 406 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 3: massive human being and he was really really explosive. And 407 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 3: in his sixteen I think year maybe nineteen year. He 408 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 3: played nineteen years as a nose tackle in the National 409 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 3: Football League. His defense that he played on nose tackle 410 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 3: was never outside the top five in run defense. 411 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 2: That guy, he'll he should be a Hall of Famer. 412 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 3: He should be, but he won't be because he has 413 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 3: he has like three sacks and teen your career. Yeah, right, 414 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 3: and that's you know, let's face it, as. 415 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 2: We've seen, that's a little ignorant. 416 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 3: Right, As we've seen with Hall of Fame voters, numbers 417 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 3: matter and Ted. That's the reason Ted doesn't get considered 418 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 3: he should be. 419 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: If both numbers matter, why don't you look at the 420 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,400 Speaker 1: run defense rankings of every defense he played. 421 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 3: On that's right, So he he was a study and 422 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 3: that's what that's the kind of guy everybody looks for. 423 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 3: When you're running a three to four defense. You got 424 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 3: to have somebody that holds the line of scrimmage way down, 425 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 3: deep inside right over the ball, and that means everything's 426 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 3: got to go right or left around the middle. If 427 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 3: you've got a guy like that, your defense is going 428 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 3: to be really really effective running a three to four. 429 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 3: But that's what you need. You got a guy, Find 430 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:43,640 Speaker 3: a guy like that. 431 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: We have to take a break here as we are 432 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: up against the clock, but we will get right back 433 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: to your phone calls. We're wide open for those the 434 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: entire show, and we'll lead off with Ron and Elmo 435 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: when we get back here. On One Bill's Live, presented 436 00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 1: by Colida Health's Buffalo Bill's Radio. What kind of roster 437 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: changes are you looking for from the Bills knowing there 438 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 1: are other changes afoot, chiefly with the coaching staff, defensive schemes, 439 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: special teams coordinator. So you let us know what you're 440 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 1: anticipating or expect from the Bills this offseason with respect 441 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: to the roster eight h three h five fifty the 442 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 1: number to get on board one eighty eight five point 443 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:35,439 Speaker 1: fifty two five point fifty to Ron in elma As promised, what's. 444 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 3: Up, Ron? 445 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, as we have a question on dead cap money 446 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 6: and how does that work. Who do we have on 447 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 6: the row that's no longer on the roster, but it's 448 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 6: causing us grief when it comes to being able to 449 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 6: sign free agents and so on and so forth. 450 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, the dead cap situation going into twenty twenty six 451 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: is going to be significantly better than it's been the 452 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: last couple of years. According to some of the online insights, 453 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: there's only about half a million dollars in dead cap 454 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 1: money currently on the books. That's good because the past 455 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 1: couple of years it's been over thirty thirty million. 456 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 2: So that affords the Bills more. 457 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 1: Room to restructure if they decide to release a player 458 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: that still has money left on the contract that they 459 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 1: want to move on from due to lack of production, 460 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: lack of availability, or lack of fit in new scheme, 461 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 1: so they have the more financial flexibility to do so, 462 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: and that's where the dead cap comes from. Perfect example, 463 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: when they traded Stefan Diggs, there was still a lot 464 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: of money left on his contract bonus wise, and when 465 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 1: you trade a player, the bonus incentives that you paid 466 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,639 Speaker 1: out in the contract, either upfront or as you went along, 467 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: immediately accelerate to your in the year that you trade him. 468 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: So if you had an amortized let's say you had 469 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs and you gave him a fifty million dollars 470 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 1: signing bonus and it's a five year deal, well that's 471 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: ten million spread over the life of his contract per season. 472 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: It gets amortized over every year. If you're two years 473 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: into that deal and then you trade him, the ten 474 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 1: million per year cap hit on the last three years 475 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: accelerates into that year, and now it's a thirty million hit, 476 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 1: and they call it dead cap because he's not on 477 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: your roster giving you any value. So they've they've kind 478 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 1: of gotten free and clear of a lot of that 479 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: from the last couple of years and don't have a 480 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 1: lot going into twenty twenty six. That is good news. 481 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: Now that being said, they're still projected to be over 482 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: the cap. The league announced last week that the salary 483 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: cap for twenty twenty six is going to be anywhere 484 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: between three hundred and one and three hundred five million, 485 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: which is about twenty million more than the two eighty 486 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: two I believe it was last year four I think 487 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 1: twenty four I think. So it's going to go up 488 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 1: another twenty million. That helps the bills in terms of 489 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: the financial maneuvering they need to do to get under 490 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 1: the cap by the start of the new league year 491 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: in mid March. So, long story short, not as bad 492 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: as it has been with respect to dead cap, but 493 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: hopefully we explained it well enough. There, Let's go to 494 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 1: Mike in Syracuse next. 495 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 7: What's up, Mike, Hi, Chris, Steve, how you guys doing good? So, yeah, 496 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 7: I just wanted to talk about your question of the day. 497 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 7: Although I agree, I agree with Steve with with with 498 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 7: the nose tackle and nose guard wherever you said there, 499 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 7: I think that's that would be a great addition. What 500 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 7: I was kind of I've kind of been thinking just 501 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 7: about a linebacker. As much as I love Shack Thompson, 502 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 7: I felt like he proved himself as a good leader 503 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,159 Speaker 7: of the defense out there. If we were to retain 504 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 7: him and maybe get some young, more athletic linebackers in there, 505 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 7: I think that would be a huge addition. Maybe maybe 506 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 7: with him. I'm not sure if his contract is up 507 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 7: or not. Yeah, he's afraid to have Yeah, he's a 508 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 7: free agent. I don't know if they're going to retain 509 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 7: him or not. It doesn't seem likely, but we need 510 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 7: someone to kind of emerge as a leader leader on 511 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 7: the defense there. I think at linebacker, I know he 512 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 7: did last year, and then my other one. I hate 513 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 7: to get on the wide receiver train, although I liked 514 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 7: a lot of our receivers. I think you saw a 515 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 7: good amount this season with Cooks about how much of 516 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 7: a difference he made with the with the field stretching capability. 517 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 7: But I think what's important with that is if we 518 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 7: can get some guys that can routinely have that threat 519 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 7: at at stretching the field. I really think that Khalil Shakir, 520 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 7: who I believe is still under contract for at least 521 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 7: another couple of years, He reminds me quite a bit 522 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 7: of of Cole Beasley when we had him. I think 523 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 7: he would just be, without a doubt, the best plot 524 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 7: receiver for a quick six seven yards right in the 525 00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 7: middle when we need it, because I don't think I 526 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 7: think very few people can keep up with his quickness 527 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 7: and the guy never drops anything like he has. He's 528 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 7: got to have one of the highest touch rates in 529 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 7: the NFL. He's got great hands. I'd like to see 530 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 7: him utilize there a little bit more, even though I 531 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 7: do think he has multi talented, but just because of 532 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 7: his size and his quickness, I think he would do 533 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 7: great there, so we can expand wide receivers to use 534 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 7: him as that as maybe as like his main skill. 535 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 7: I think that would help our offense a ton. I 536 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 7: was just curious about your guys' opinions on that, and 537 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 7: I can hang up and listen to go Bills. 538 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think the only thing he left 539 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: out is probably edge rusher, you know where the Bills 540 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: have two free agents and Epanessa and Bosa. And here's 541 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: the good news, because I think Steve and I are 542 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: on the same page with this in terms of positional needs, 543 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: at least as it stands right now, knowing the free 544 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: agents that could potentially leave, I think edge, rusher, receiver, 545 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 1: and linebacker are probably your three most pressing positional needs 546 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: as it stands right now. Granted, old line could come 547 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: into the picture if McGovern and or Edwards are not back, 548 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 1: especially knowing that Alec Anderson is a restricted free agent 549 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: along with Ryan Vandermark. So with that in mind, I 550 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: think the good news is if there are three positions 551 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: where the draft is considered to be very strong this year, 552 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: it's edge, rusher, receiver, and linebacker. So the Bills could 553 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: do get a lot of that work done in the draft. 554 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: They won't do that solely. As we know, we often 555 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: see Brandon Bean phil as many perceived roster holes as 556 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 1: he can in the free agent market and then supplements 557 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: that with draft choices. In a similar fashion, I would 558 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: tend to think that you need a middle linebacker with 559 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: leadership potential, and look, if they're playing a three four, 560 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna have two inside guys. I think Bernard, based 561 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: on his size, is probably your weak inside linebacker. He 562 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 1: just signed an extension last year. I don't know if 563 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: you're throwing him overboard because he changed the scheme. If 564 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: you think he can capably fill the weak inside position, 565 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: you leave him there and then you try to find 566 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 1: you know, your strong inside position. Yeah, you go try 567 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 1: and find a young chef Thompson. Right, you get a 568 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: guy Jack Thompson, six foot two thirty, right, he's played 569 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: in that four to three system almost his entire career. 570 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: Can he make that transition? And then is he big 571 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 1: enough to stand in there at the mic? 572 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 3: Yeah? I think at two thirty probably is. Or but 573 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 3: that's you got to be at least that right, I mean, 574 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 3: you're at. 575 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 2: The bottom of the range I think for that position. 576 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 3: But you can certainly go find one in the draft. Yep, 577 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 3: middle line. It's not considered a money position, you know. 578 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 3: It's not like an edge rusher or a corner or 579 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 3: white big white out or obviously not a quarterback. But 580 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,479 Speaker 3: so you could get one maybe where the Bills are 581 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 3: picking in the first round, like a twenty five. You 582 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 3: find that guy. But he's got to be I don't 583 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 3: want all the trite and the hokey stuff that they 584 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 3: say about these He's got to be an alpha male. 585 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 3: He's got to walk in as a rookie and like 586 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,239 Speaker 3: not care that that there's veterans in the room. You know, 587 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 3: he's got to be one of those guys. He's got 588 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 3: to be a bad man. And so there and there 589 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 3: are guys out there like that. You can find him 590 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 3: in these drafts, and so they and where they will 591 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 3: sign one who's looking to get into his second contract, 592 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 3: and other team's like, we're kind of deep at the spot, 593 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 3: or we don't want to pay that kind of money 594 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 3: for that spot. Whatever. The Bills under McDermott let you know, uh, 595 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 3: Terrell Edmunds walk, Tremain Edmunds. They let Tremaine Edmunds walk 596 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 3: and went to Chicago and he's making fifteen million dollars 597 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,479 Speaker 3: a year. But even that, I don't think Tremaine. You 598 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 3: need a guy that kind of size. And Tremaine was 599 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 3: a huge guy. He was long and lean, So you 600 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 3: need you need a dude a physical presence inside. The 601 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 3: best ones like the Luke Keikleys of the world, Brian 602 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 3: Erlackers of the world. Those guys are six five plus 603 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 3: like like Tremaine was. 604 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: And so are the outside linebackers. They have to be 605 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: long and tall. 606 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,719 Speaker 3: But you need a guy. There's no question the Bill's 607 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 3: defense and Bill's fans will know. And when Shaq Thompson 608 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 3: got on the field, it was better. It was better. 609 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 3: You need a guy like that that can get out 610 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 3: there and do that, and you need him to be 611 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 3: twenty five and not thirty. 612 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I know you were worried about Khalil Shakiri. 613 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 1: He just signed the extension last year. He's signed through 614 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: twenty thirty. 615 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, Khalil's gonna be. Yeah, Khalil's going to be a 616 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 3: part of this offense going forward. I think they know 617 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 3: that he's his He's really good after the catch, which 618 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 3: is why they throw all those screens to him, those 619 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 3: real quick release screens to the outside, because he's good 620 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 3: with the ball in his hands. Once he gets it, 621 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 3: he gets a lot of extra yards that way. So 622 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:10,760 Speaker 3: just get it to him and let him go. Yeah, 623 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 3: you're not looking for a you're not looking for a 624 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 3: forty yard touchdown every time, but he gets you eight 625 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 3: and that's outstanding. So yeah, Khalis Shakir is going to 626 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 3: be on this roster. He is a slot receiver. That's 627 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 3: how they use him. They move him around. 628 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: Finding they haven't used him like Beasley per se. You know, no, 629 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 1: I haven't used him the way Beasley was used under 630 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 1: day ball. 631 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,399 Speaker 3: No, but they don't. Their passing game has moved away 632 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 3: from what it was with day ball a little bit. 633 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 3: So if they did go back to that or started 634 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 3: implementing it more as their wide receiver room changes, I 635 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,359 Speaker 3: think Khalis Shakir could do every bit of what Cole 636 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 3: Beasley did, maybe more. 637 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: Let's go to Tom and Lakawana next. What's up Tom? 638 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 4: Hey, guys, want to answer your question. But before I 639 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:02,359 Speaker 4: get into players and player positions, I think I hope 640 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 4: that mister Brady, as he in the seventh to eighteenth week, 641 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,360 Speaker 4: had Josh because he knew he was going to be 642 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 4: out to review his whole season and see where he 643 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 4: needed to improve. I think that mister Brady needs to 644 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 4: look at being able not to try crazy plays, but 645 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 4: move away from some plays. I think in the Denver 646 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,879 Speaker 4: game on first down it was running back into the line. 647 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 4: Running back into the line one or two of those 648 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,399 Speaker 4: times on first down he needs to do a play 649 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,359 Speaker 4: action pass. That's why you do running back into the line, 650 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 4: and the same thing the week before when Shakier had 651 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 4: twelve catches for eighty two yards. They don't have to 652 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 4: be bubble screens. They can be what Beasley did, run 653 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 4: four to five yard patterns. Let the tight ends run 654 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 4: four to five yard patterns. That bubble screen is a 655 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 4: tough player to complete. You got to complete it fast, 656 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 4: and you got to hope your guys are blocking. You 657 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 4: get relied more and somebody running three or four yards. 658 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 4: Those are the things he needs to change from. And 659 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 4: even in the Pittsburgh game, because they didn't defend it well, 660 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 4: he stuck to the two running plays. You got to 661 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,880 Speaker 4: mix it up some. I don't want to see knocks 662 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:20,280 Speaker 4: on a power reverse or something the way it fumbled, 663 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 4: and that's why we lost the first Patriot game. Just 664 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 4: something to diverse a little, but don't go crazy and 665 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,280 Speaker 4: try wild plays. But he just sticks to too many plays. 666 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,760 Speaker 4: As far as players we need, I'm still waiting. Since 667 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 4: Hyde retired and Poyer left the first or second or 668 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 4: third time, who knows. At this point they need another safety. 669 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 4: I'm not saying they have to draft one, but they 670 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,839 Speaker 4: need one that's bigger than Hancock. Maybe I don't know, 671 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 4: Terren Johnson injuries older, what he costs in salary, Maybe 672 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,240 Speaker 4: they move Hancock into there, but they do need another 673 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,800 Speaker 4: safety doing well with cal Bishop. If it's going to 674 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 4: be more blitzing defense, then you're relying on your secondary 675 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,959 Speaker 4: to hold up and Rat's not gonna make it. He's 676 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:14,280 Speaker 4: too slow and too often injured. They definitely need another safety, 677 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:21,240 Speaker 4: as you and as you discussed linebackers and edge pass rushers, 678 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 4: and then if anything, I don't know, depending how the 679 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 4: money works out. I don't know what Torrance is due 680 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 4: up for money, but he's gonna need big money and 681 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:34,399 Speaker 4: deserves it. I would shoot more for trying to take 682 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 4: McGovern because he can play garden center. If Van Praser 683 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,919 Speaker 4: is ready to play center and Edwards, I think there's 684 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:43,799 Speaker 4: going to be outpriced and they're going to lose him 685 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 4: and see what they could do with Knox's salary. 686 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Tom, Thanks, Yeah, that comprehensive view of 687 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 1: it's been listening. 688 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's going to be interesting to see because we've 689 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 3: heard a lot about you can't just run it on 690 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 3: first down all the time, and you kind of quit 691 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 3: throwing those stinking bubble screens, those quick screens. Everybody's tired. 692 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 3: They you know, they never work, they do it all 693 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 3: the time. That kind of stuff. The offense looked the 694 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 3: way it did this year because of the players that 695 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 3: were being productive and the best ways to use those 696 00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 3: players get you put more playmakers on this offense, the 697 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 3: offense will evolve into something more that those playmakers will 698 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 3: be able to take advantage of late in the season. 699 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 3: Teams rely on the guys that have been productive during 700 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:42,359 Speaker 3: the regular season. And I said it this week, I've 701 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 3: said this last couple of weeks during this coaching change 702 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 3: a lot. The offense looks and takes. It takes the 703 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 3: shape of its best players, Josh and this group of 704 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 3: playmakers from the tight end spot, the running back spot, 705 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,400 Speaker 3: and the slot received with Shakirit, wherever the playmakers are 706 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 3: on the Bills off wherever you think they are. That's 707 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 3: what your offense is gonna look like. When it's those 708 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 3: players that are productive. You put another star guy or 709 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,439 Speaker 3: really top notch guy on the outside, the offense will 710 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,880 Speaker 3: look different. It will look different. It will get bigger 711 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 3: plays from different guys. The big plays will look different 712 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,840 Speaker 3: than the big plays did in this offense. And it's 713 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 3: that's just the way it works. When your best players 714 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 3: are the guys that the Bills had on their offense, 715 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 3: the offense looks like it did it's gonna look like that. 716 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,800 Speaker 3: This coaching staff, particularly on the offensive side of the 717 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 3: ball and the defensive side to this. Last year, they 718 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 3: figured out how to be really productive offensively, for sure. 719 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,319 Speaker 3: They figured out how to be really productive with the 720 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 3: guys they had available in an ever changing wide receiver 721 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 3: room where every guy that got in there got was 722 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 3: out with an injury at some point, and they kept 723 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 3: revolving do or the only guys that's right, So the 724 00:39:57,040 --> 00:40:00,320 Speaker 3: only guy they could count on was Khalil Shakir. I 725 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:05,240 Speaker 3: don't think he missed a game, and that's it. Everybody 726 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 3: else was in and out of the lineup. Keon was 727 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 3: you know, was getting benched. So that's what your offense 728 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 3: is gonna look like. And when it looks like that, 729 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 3: and you got guys at a revolving door on the outside, 730 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 3: you're gonna start to go to plays a little bit 731 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 3: more than you normally would. Now, they made them work, 732 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 3: and they their offense remained highly productive, but the injury bug, 733 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:31,840 Speaker 3: particularly at the wide receivers, and then trying to rotate 734 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,920 Speaker 3: those guys through. Finally, when they get Brandon Cooks in 735 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:35,919 Speaker 3: there and he starts taking a few reps and gets 736 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,879 Speaker 3: more than one half a game without getting injured again, 737 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:44,359 Speaker 3: you start to see some stuff from him. So that's 738 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 3: just the way it is. The coaches go with who 739 00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:49,880 Speaker 3: they've got available and ready, and the offense looks like that, 740 00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 3: It looks like those players, and they call those plays 741 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 3: because they've got those players. So yeah, it's gonna be 742 00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:01,280 Speaker 3: different this year because it's gonna be different cast of characters. 743 00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 1: What kind of roster changes are you looking for from 744 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,239 Speaker 1: the Bills this offseason? You let us know next as 745 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:08,839 Speaker 1: we take more of your phone calls.

Let's get back to 754 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:37,800 Speaker 2: the phones and to Jason on a cell. What do 755 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 2: you got for us? 756 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 8: Jason, Hey, thanks for taking my call. 757 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:41,240 Speaker 9: Guys. 758 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 8: The reason why I'm calling is because I think we 759 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 8: need four maybe five areas to improve, and one is 760 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:52,440 Speaker 8: wide receiver. I am worried about the offensive line because 761 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:57,359 Speaker 8: of all the sacks they took last year. Uh, definitely 762 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 8: we need help at linebacker, pass rusher, and safety. And 763 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 8: one more thing, Steve my Man, you really should talk 764 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 8: to the producers about having them show your jersey. You 765 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 8: were a great player and you deserve to be shown. 766 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 3: Okay, I got news for Thermo's pretty good too. Did 767 00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 3: you know that? I did know that it was pretty good, 768 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 3: and so was so is Andre James lofton great you know, 769 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,920 Speaker 3: great player, Hall of Famer. So I'm I'm on super secret, 770 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:38,360 Speaker 3: double secret improbation before I get my jersey on. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 771 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 3: but thank you for that. That's nice. Yeah, yeah, we're 772 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 3: on the same everybody's kind of on the same page today. Obviously, 773 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 3: the wide receiver conversation has been a topic since they 774 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:52,760 Speaker 3: traded Steph Diggs, right, and then, Uh, the offensive line. 775 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 3: I don't know that you maybe a little. I'm not 776 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 3: just got sacked forty times this year. It's a lot, 777 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 3: but Josh, I think this year took more sacks voluntarily 778 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:10,279 Speaker 3: than we've seen him take in the years past. A 779 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 3: couple of them were bad sacks where he tried to 780 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:13,839 Speaker 3: extend the play and he got him out of a field. 781 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 3: There's a couple of you can think of him just 782 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 3: like a couple of really bad sacks that he took, 783 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 3: but that was on him, not so much the offensive line. 784 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 3: But they're losing forty percent of their offensive line or 785 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 3: at least their free agents, so they've got to replace 786 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 3: those guys, and let's face it, they've got to replace 787 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 3: him at a high level. It's an offensive line that 788 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 3: was durable, available, highly proficient, and you know they were 789 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 3: on it. They were a great group. Despite the fact 790 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:49,719 Speaker 3: they gave up forty sacks this year, they were the 791 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 3: number one team in the league in rushing. I know 792 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 3: everybody knows that. So, yes, the bar is high for 793 00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:01,839 Speaker 3: this offensive line. You don't want to go backwards right there. 794 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would tend not to put the forty sacks 795 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,360 Speaker 1: on the old line because Josh Allen had the eleventh 796 00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:13,759 Speaker 1: slowest time to throw in the league last year three 797 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:16,760 Speaker 1: point oh two seconds. Now, part of that is because 798 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,480 Speaker 1: he'll often extend the play by you know, moving out 799 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 1: of the pocket and buying time. But I think that 800 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 1: is more a byproduct of who was not open and 801 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: creating separation downfield than it was a compromise in protection. 802 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 1: You don't go from giving up thirteen sacks one year 803 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 1: to forty with the same crew and put it and 804 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 1: blame the same group. I think there were different elements 805 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: within the scope of the offense at play last year. 806 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,919 Speaker 1: Chief among them was Josh having to hold the ball 807 00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 1: longer because people were not getting open with enough regularity, 808 00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:56,880 Speaker 1: and he ended up taking some sacks that in previous 809 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,840 Speaker 1: years he did not. So that's not im saying it's 810 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: absolutely uniformly only that, but that was a big part. 811 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 2: Of the reason. Let's go to Jeff in Buffalo X. 812 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 3: What's up? Jeff? 813 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 9: Hey, you guys, how are you doing good? 814 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 10: Real quick? If I could get back to this switch 815 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:18,880 Speaker 10: from four to three to the three four and personnel wise, 816 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:25,839 Speaker 10: because I mean, okay, my opinion only, but you're gonna 817 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 10: go to a four to three beside your nose TACKO. 818 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 9: Yeah. 819 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:32,320 Speaker 10: Your linebackers that you have right now that are under 820 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 10: contract aren't really like tall, lanky, bigger bodied linebackers. So 821 00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 10: my question if I could just relay off of that 822 00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,960 Speaker 10: some of these players that same thing with you know 823 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 10: so much Nickel we played, I'm sure you know there's 824 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 10: gonna be times that a lot of nickels played, but 825 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 10: we were basically under McDermott, basically a nickel or like 826 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:58,359 Speaker 10: a whatever you want to call it three five three 827 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:02,560 Speaker 10: or whatever or three three or five or whatever it's called. 828 00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 10: But my point is when you look at players like 829 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,880 Speaker 10: Terren Johnson who's under contract, and you have players like 830 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 10: Michael Hoyite who's under contract, where did these guys? And, 831 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 10: like I said, you get back to like I heard 832 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:17,920 Speaker 10: the point about the linebackers, and I don't want to 833 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,719 Speaker 10: keep reiterating it, but in my opinion, you got to 834 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,839 Speaker 10: pretty much start from scratch when it comes to four 835 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 10: three linebackers. And I do believe Dion Walker, who is 836 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 10: my man, I think he would hold up yeah at 837 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 10: lower body. Put a little little more butt on him 838 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 10: and get him down to the ground, and I think 839 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:38,720 Speaker 10: he would hold up in there. He's a big man 840 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:42,920 Speaker 10: and he's just a kid. Yet So just just like 841 00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 10: I said, you think of some of these players that 842 00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 10: he had signed last year in the free agents, like 843 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 10: a Hoyt and re signed Terreon Johnson, where do they 844 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 10: fit in coming up to a three four It looks like, 845 00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 10: you know, it looks like there's going to major, major overhaul. 846 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think there is going to be turnover though. 847 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 1: I think's perfect. Yeah, put him outside linebacker and let 848 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:06,480 Speaker 1: him go. Actually is the one that fits perfect at Oliver. 849 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 1: Oliver is another guy that fits perfectly as a as 850 00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 1: a defensive end in a three key long enough. Yeah, 851 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 1: the way his athleticism, he will have more space out there, 852 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 1: Plus he'll have the ability to get. 853 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 3: To be inside. I think that speaks to him moving 854 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 3: him out just a hair further. 855 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:25,560 Speaker 2: Because he's gonna play like behind reach. 856 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:27,959 Speaker 3: He'll be all right. I think ed Ed's a great 857 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:31,719 Speaker 3: fit too. But yes, some of these guys will have 858 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 3: some things to learn. I don't it's not necessarily, you know, stereotypically, 859 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:43,839 Speaker 3: there are some differences, but I don't think that. Yeah, 860 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,200 Speaker 3: none of these guys are disqualified from being able to 861 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,359 Speaker 3: do it. And don't forget the entire league defensively at 862 00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:53,279 Speaker 3: the linebacker spot has gotten faster and lighter over the 863 00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:57,320 Speaker 3: last ten years fifteen years because the league has gone spread, 864 00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:02,359 Speaker 3: more spread, more spread, more shifts motions and they're and 865 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:04,600 Speaker 3: it's more throwing and more throwing and more throwing, which 866 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,719 Speaker 3: means guys have to move in space and they got 867 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:09,319 Speaker 3: to be more athletic, which means smaller and lighter. So 868 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,719 Speaker 3: the whole league is moving to that, so it they're 869 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:14,919 Speaker 3: not sized out of a position. Even if it isn't 870 00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 3: a four to three or three four. What it comes 871 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 3: down to is being able to drop into coverage and 872 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,919 Speaker 3: run with guys. So it's the same, it's the same game. 873 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,399 Speaker 1: There is a requisite amount of length you need from 874 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:28,280 Speaker 1: an outside linebacker, though. You can't have a six footer 875 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 1: out there, that's right, you know, with thirty three inch 876 00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 1: arms like. 877 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,480 Speaker 2: You need some people with some length, some height. 878 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: Typically that's what's required of outside linebackers like Javon Solomon. 879 00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 1: That's going to be a tough fit for him. He's six' 880 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:45,319 Speaker 1: one two forty seven, Like, I don't know if he 881 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:47,399 Speaker 1: can be an outside linebacker in a three to four. 882 00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 2: Maybe he can. He's certainly not big enough to play 883 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 2: end in a three four. 884 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:53,400 Speaker 1: So now you look at outside linebacker and is he 885 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:57,040 Speaker 1: tall enough and long enough or do you transition him 886 00:48:57,040 --> 00:49:00,440 Speaker 1: inside and play like weak inside linebacker behind Burne aren't. 887 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,319 Speaker 1: I mean the only linebackers you have under contract right 888 00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:08,319 Speaker 1: now are and Dreesen, Terrell Brenard, and Dorian Williams and 889 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,520 Speaker 1: Michael Hoyd if you consider him a linebacker, which I 890 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 1: think in the new system you would, and probably Solomon 891 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:18,320 Speaker 1: and not all of those guys are ideal fits. Dorian 892 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:22,239 Speaker 1: Williams is six two two thirty right, like you might 893 00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 1: have to put on ten pounds, and you hope he 894 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:25,719 Speaker 1: grows an interest a. 895 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 3: Guy like such essential guys, a guy like t J. 896 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,680 Speaker 3: Watt and Pittsburgh if you're asking, if you want to know, 897 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:34,600 Speaker 3: he's six' four and weighs two. Fifty, yeah so it's 898 00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 3: a bigger. Dude and that's that's kind of the size 899 00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 3: that we've been talking. About your inside linebackers need to. 900 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 3: Be so those that's kind of the quintessential, size, right six' 901 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:48,320 Speaker 3: four plus two hundred and fifty or, or above and 902 00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 3: they got to be able. To run and that's. Those 903 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,439 Speaker 3: guys as as crazy as it, sounds like, we don't, 904 00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 3: you know most people know like two people that are 905 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 3: six four, right BROWN and i know a lot. OF 906 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 3: them i have good and they're all, six four but 907 00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 3: not too many of them that. Can run but even having, 908 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:08,279 Speaker 3: said that they're more they're easily more easily obtainable than 909 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,759 Speaker 3: six five three ten three. Point fifteen those guys are even, 910 00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 3: more rare which is Why the bills Spins some that's 911 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,799 Speaker 3: why they draft right offensive and defensive linemen because you 912 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:21,720 Speaker 3: can't find guys that are six five three hundred plus, 913 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 3: pounds yep but six four. Two fifty there's more of those, 914 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:28,520 Speaker 3: guys around and there's more guys in, free agency and 915 00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:31,280 Speaker 3: there's more guys on the free agent market and rookie 916 00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:36,880 Speaker 3: free agents and undersized or undersized. Defensive linemen there's a 917 00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 3: lot of those guys out there that you can come 918 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:40,560 Speaker 3: in coach, them up and you think, they can they 919 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:45,880 Speaker 3: can do it.

Virtual measurements they 967 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:51,759 Speaker 1: use virtual measurements now and it streamlines. The game and, 968 00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:55,759 Speaker 1: you're right there is a little bit of romanticizing going 969 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,160 Speaker 1: on about the old time chain gangs where you get the, 970 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:02,640 Speaker 1: you know the three uncles of some of the players. 971 00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:04,440 Speaker 3: That are on the chain gang and they dropped.

NOSE tackle, i mean just 1142 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:43,560 Speaker 14: because he's three hundred and thirty pounds doesn't mean at 1143 01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:46,000 Speaker 14: six foot seven that would be a nightmare for that 1144 01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:49,240 Speaker 14: guy to have to take on leverage from three different 1145 01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:52,120 Speaker 14: angles on any given play from both guards in the 1146 01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:54,640 Speaker 14: center and have to stand up. In there that's not 1147 01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:57,439 Speaker 14: a poor gone conclusion that that's going. To happen there's 1148 01:02:57,440 --> 01:03:00,920 Speaker 14: a reason why those tackles are typically, not tall and 1149 01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:02,920 Speaker 14: it has to do. With leverage as FAR as i know, 1150 01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 14: you guys correct Me if. I'm wrong and as far 1151 01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 14: as the, Defensive ends i'm not so sure we got 1152 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,880 Speaker 14: anybody on this roster right now that lines up well 1153 01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:13,600 Speaker 14: in the. Three four we certainly don't have. Any linebackers 1154 01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:17,960 Speaker 14: we're definitely going to have to bring in four starting 1155 01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 14: linebackers as Far as. I'm concerned but and then as 1156 01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:28,240 Speaker 14: far as the, offense GOES when i look at the Offense, 1157 01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:30,600 Speaker 14: AND steve i was on board with you for the last. 1158 01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:32,880 Speaker 14: TWO years i thought we had more than enough talent 1159 01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:37,520 Speaker 14: in the receiving crew to, do well and the points 1160 01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:41,760 Speaker 14: show that. We Did but i'll never Forget when laski 1161 01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:45,000 Speaker 14: came on and he said our passing game. Is elementary 1162 01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:48,160 Speaker 14: we don't have, man beaters but we line up in, 1163 01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:52,520 Speaker 14: man situations one on one situations and say beat. That 1164 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:55,480 Speaker 14: guy and that was. Our offense and when it, didn't 1165 01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:59,560 Speaker 14: happen we balked. Down totally and we, very seldom, he 1166 01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:04,480 Speaker 14: said we very seldom scheme. Anybody OPEN and i don't 1167 01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 14: know where we're going with, our offense but we got 1168 01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:10,880 Speaker 14: the same guy running. The show so if we're going 1169 01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:12,960 Speaker 14: to do anything with, our receivers we got to get 1170 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:15,560 Speaker 14: a whole new receivering crew with guys at our man 1171 01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:20,000 Speaker 14: beat is because it doesn't look like it's gonna change anytime. 1172 01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:24,400 Speaker 14: Too Soon so i'm at a loss with the team. 1173 01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:28,160 Speaker 14: RIGHT now i. Really am I'm a. Bill's rob godn't die. 1174 01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:31,840 Speaker 14: With him but anybody who was calling for mcdermot's head 1175 01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:34,280 Speaker 14: over the last, several years who thought this was going 1176 01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:36,120 Speaker 14: to be a plug and play with a new coach 1177 01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:38,800 Speaker 14: and we're just going to pick up where we, left 1178 01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:42,640 Speaker 14: off reality is starting to. Set in everything. 1179 01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:45,640 Speaker 3: Is CHANGING well i don't Know, IF mark i don't 1180 01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:47,880 Speaker 3: know that the offense is going to get totally. Totally 1181 01:04:47,960 --> 01:04:50,360 Speaker 3: redone and It's like i've, been Saying and i'll say. 1182 01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:52,440 Speaker 3: It again the offense looked the way it did this, 1183 01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:55,280 Speaker 3: last year and let's remember it was very highly productive 1184 01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:59,440 Speaker 3: this last year was because They, have Josh, That Khalils, 1185 01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:04,920 Speaker 3: shakir kincaid Knocks and cook and this. Offensive line that's 1186 01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:07,960 Speaker 3: what the offense. Looked like it looked like that because 1187 01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:09,960 Speaker 3: those were the best players on, the offense and that's how. 1188 01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:12,240 Speaker 3: The offense those are the players the offense. Ran through 1189 01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:16,040 Speaker 3: if you change, those players which they'll have to at 1190 01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:18,439 Speaker 3: some point because of the roster's gonna, turn over they're 1191 01:05:18,440 --> 01:05:20,960 Speaker 3: gonna get a wide receiver room, filled up and maybe 1192 01:05:20,960 --> 01:05:23,840 Speaker 3: they get some guys that can, really play it's. Gonna 1193 01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:27,080 Speaker 3: change because. Of that the offense looks like your. Best 1194 01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:30,480 Speaker 3: players the offense runs through your. Best players josh has 1195 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:33,680 Speaker 3: the ball in his hands, every Play And james cook 1196 01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:36,360 Speaker 3: led the league in rushing last year behind that. Offensive 1197 01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:39,320 Speaker 3: line that's what the offense. Looked like when you change, 1198 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:42,240 Speaker 3: those pieces the offense will change. As well that's WHAT 1199 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:45,720 Speaker 3: an nfl coaching staff is paid. To do use your, 1200 01:05:45,760 --> 01:05:49,640 Speaker 3: Best players let, them cook let, them eat give the 1201 01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:52,360 Speaker 3: ball to, the playmakers get it to them, in space 1202 01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:54,720 Speaker 3: let them do what. They do and that's What the 1203 01:05:54,720 --> 01:05:57,360 Speaker 3: bills offense looked like. Last year it would have looked 1204 01:05:57,480 --> 01:05:59,720 Speaker 3: a lot Different Had brandon cooks been on the field the. 1205 01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:02,760 Speaker 3: Entire year it would have looked. Very Different If josh 1206 01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:05,600 Speaker 3: palmer could have, stayed healthier Or if sanders could have, 1207 01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:08,040 Speaker 3: stayed healthier if anybody could have stayed healthy, out there 1208 01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:11,240 Speaker 3: And If, KEON samuel, i Mean if samuel And if 1209 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:14,800 Speaker 3: keon would have come out and been a, better player 1210 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:17,640 Speaker 3: had a better, productive year not been benched as a, 1211 01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:20,800 Speaker 3: healthy scratch the offense would have looked very different under. 1212 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:25,080 Speaker 3: Those circumstances but it was, very productive scored a lot, 1213 01:06:25,080 --> 01:06:29,760 Speaker 3: of points And So i'm i'm kind of not with you. 1214 01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:31,840 Speaker 3: On this at, A loss i don't know what they're. Gonna, 1215 01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:35,480 Speaker 3: do plus we we've been accentuating the differences between the 1216 01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:39,480 Speaker 3: four to three. Three four they're still they're. PLAYING football, 1217 01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:42,400 Speaker 3: i mean it's not like the guys who played on 1218 01:06:42,440 --> 01:06:44,160 Speaker 3: the team last year on defense are gonna have to 1219 01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:46,920 Speaker 3: pick up a. TENNIS racket, i mean it's. Still football. 1220 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:50,480 Speaker 3: It's different it's gonna be different to have some, different 1221 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:53,440 Speaker 3: responsibilities but they're still gonna be guarding the same, running 1222 01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:56,959 Speaker 3: backs same, tight ends same, wide outs it's still gonna 1223 01:06:56,960 --> 01:06:59,160 Speaker 3: be the same kind. Of thing so it's not gonna 1224 01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:02,160 Speaker 3: be like you have to guys off overboard just because 1225 01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:05,320 Speaker 3: they're moving three feet outside the running back on their 1226 01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:09,040 Speaker 3: alignment in a. BASE defense, i mean so they're not 1227 01:07:09,040 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 3: gonna they're not bereft of hope on the, defensive side 1228 01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:14,560 Speaker 3: and the roster is not gonna have to be one 1229 01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 3: hundred percent, washed through but there are gonna be asked 1230 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:20,040 Speaker 3: to do some. Different things some of them may, be 1231 01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 3: better some of them might. Not be that's what they 1232 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:27,120 Speaker 3: got to. Work Through So i'm i'm not with you 1233 01:07:27,240 --> 01:07:30,560 Speaker 3: at all on that where it's, like nobody nobody's gonna 1234 01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:32,080 Speaker 3: be able to. LINE up i mean, They're not they're. 1235 01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:35,120 Speaker 3: They're all that's that's a little bit too far the. 1236 01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:38,320 Speaker 1: Other WAY and i will also say with Respect To Brian, 1237 01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:46,120 Speaker 1: thomas junior it's an interesting potential acquisition because the general 1238 01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:49,440 Speaker 1: Consensus in Jacksonville Is travis hunter is going to be 1239 01:07:49,480 --> 01:07:52,680 Speaker 1: coming back from his season, ending injury presumably gonna be 1240 01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:56,080 Speaker 1: at worse the number two receiver in. Their Offense parker 1241 01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:58,920 Speaker 1: washington seems to be their number one option in, their 1242 01:07:58,920 --> 01:08:01,840 Speaker 1: offense similar to Like an Aman Ras saint brown in 1243 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:04,360 Speaker 1: the role that, he plays and where does That Leave, 1244 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:06,960 Speaker 1: brian thomas your former first round. Draft choice it leaves 1245 01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:08,200 Speaker 1: him as the number three option. 1246 01:08:08,320 --> 01:08:12,280 Speaker 2: At, best so and it'll be that is. 1247 01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:14,600 Speaker 1: That somebody they want to hold on to or is 1248 01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:16,920 Speaker 1: that someone they feel they can. Part with if they 1249 01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:18,760 Speaker 1: want to part, with him that's cheap labor you can 1250 01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:21,320 Speaker 1: acquire with a skill set where he can line. 1251 01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:23,600 Speaker 3: UP outside i don't think it's a four con conclusion 1252 01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:25,720 Speaker 3: that he's out. Of there he's. Cheap labor he's a 1253 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:28,519 Speaker 3: number one. Draft pick he's been productive at times in. 1254 01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:32,200 Speaker 3: That offense he's very productive his, first, year right and like, 1255 01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:34,400 Speaker 3: you said he's going into the third year of a five. 1256 01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:39,280 Speaker 3: Year deal that is what affordable what would be a 1257 01:08:39,280 --> 01:08:43,000 Speaker 3: five year deal if you pick up. His option he's 1258 01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:46,840 Speaker 3: it's not not a fore gone conclusion that he's. Leaving there. He's, 1259 01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:50,960 Speaker 3: cheap yeah they may. Keep, him yeah why would? They, 1260 01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:55,160 Speaker 3: Not OKAY so i don't. You know so there you go. 1261 01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:57,560 Speaker 1: Twelve hundred and eighty, two yards ten touchdowns as a 1262 01:08:57,640 --> 01:09:00,840 Speaker 1: rookie and then it plummeted to seven hundred yards and 1263 01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:03,920 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. Last Year And trevor lawrence at his best 1264 01:09:03,920 --> 01:09:07,040 Speaker 1: season of. His, Career Yeah liam cohen for, whatever reason 1265 01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:11,599 Speaker 1: doesn't feel it necessary To utilize thomas as much and 1266 01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:14,720 Speaker 1: his confidence suffered as. A result so maybe he does 1267 01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:17,800 Speaker 1: need to change, the scenery and that's cheap labor for 1268 01:09:17,800 --> 01:09:21,240 Speaker 1: at least the next. Two years, SO yeah i would 1269 01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:23,400 Speaker 1: be all over that as an option if it. PRESENTED 1270 01:09:23,439 --> 01:09:27,800 Speaker 1: itself i just don't know If The jacksonville jaguars are 1271 01:09:27,840 --> 01:09:31,000 Speaker 1: trading that guy TO an afc team with whom they 1272 01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:35,720 Speaker 1: would be competing with directly for playoff supremacy IN, the Afc. 1273 01:09:35,720 --> 01:09:38,320 Speaker 2: Namely buffalo Is what.

Stopping by so you get a Guy Like, 1489 01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:36,000 Speaker 3: jerry rice who was, fast enough had the, right frame 1490 01:20:36,080 --> 01:20:39,439 Speaker 3: and was always on. The field he could run routes and. Catch, 1491 01:20:39,479 --> 01:20:43,439 Speaker 3: everything yeah that guy's the greatest that has ever, suited 1492 01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:47,320 Speaker 3: up played for twenty years and caught everything and was everybody's, 1493 01:20:47,360 --> 01:20:50,800 Speaker 3: His numbers his numbers Dwarf other Hall of fame guys 1494 01:20:50,880 --> 01:20:54,639 Speaker 3: And deservingly Hall of. Fame guys he dwarfs, their numbers 1495 01:20:55,400 --> 01:20:59,920 Speaker 3: and he couldn't. Outrun anybody and that's the thing that 1496 01:21:00,200 --> 01:21:02,200 Speaker 3: most guys come in as fast as, they are they're 1497 01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 3: four To three, Great's awesome but there's a lot of 1498 01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:06,559 Speaker 3: guys out there. Running that in the particularly in the 1499 01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:10,120 Speaker 3: defensive BACKFIELD and. Nfl clubs you running out some outrun, 1500 01:21:10,240 --> 01:21:13,479 Speaker 3: some guys but not if they take off at the 1501 01:21:13,520 --> 01:21:16,400 Speaker 3: same time. You do you've got to get them to 1502 01:21:16,520 --> 01:21:19,639 Speaker 3: hesitate to give you. That step some guys don't have 1503 01:21:19,760 --> 01:21:21,559 Speaker 3: the ability to. Do that they don't know how to run, 1504 01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:27,280 Speaker 3: a route to MAKE a dB doubt, the route because 1505 01:21:27,320 --> 01:21:29,639 Speaker 3: WHEN the, dB doubts he stops his feet and thinks 1506 01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:32,000 Speaker 3: you're going someplace. You're not that's. 1507 01:21:32,080 --> 01:21:34,439 Speaker 1: Route running and again we're not saying speed is not, 1508 01:21:34,479 --> 01:21:35,559 Speaker 1: an asset, of course. 1509 01:21:35,680 --> 01:21:38,720 Speaker 2: Questionably is it's of course. Running in but. 1510 01:21:38,840 --> 01:21:42,240 Speaker 3: Route running being a great wide receiver IN the nfl 1511 01:21:43,080 --> 01:21:46,439 Speaker 3: is about isn't about out running guys. So much it 1512 01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:52,040 Speaker 3: is about. Fooling guys and because once you catch the 1513 01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:56,720 Speaker 3: once you, you know, OUTRUNNING guys i mean you're you get. 1514 01:21:56,720 --> 01:21:58,320 Speaker 3: A stud you catch the ball in, the open it's 1515 01:21:58,320 --> 01:22:00,960 Speaker 3: gonna take even a really fast it's gonna take him 1516 01:22:00,960 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 3: twenty yards to catch a really slow wide receiver. Relatively 1517 01:22:04,400 --> 01:22:08,519 Speaker 3: speaking so, you know it's it's about FOOLING the dB 1518 01:22:08,800 --> 01:22:12,479 Speaker 3: and that means. Route running so it's we've, Seen It 1519 01:22:12,720 --> 01:22:16,280 Speaker 3: steph diggs, fast enough, but man the guy. Could run 1520 01:22:16,360 --> 01:22:18,960 Speaker 3: the guy. Runs. Routes yep you know that's what's his that's. 1521 01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:21,679 Speaker 3: His Thing stevie johnson was that kind, of, guy right 1522 01:22:23,120 --> 01:22:26,200 Speaker 3: you Just and stevie was as unorthodox as you. Can 1523 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:29,280 Speaker 3: get but the guy, got open and he got open 1524 01:22:29,280 --> 01:22:32,120 Speaker 3: where he was supposed to be right in timing with, 1525 01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:35,439 Speaker 3: the play and his quarterback trusted him and would throw 1526 01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:38,120 Speaker 3: it to the Spot and stevie would run some other 1527 01:22:38,240 --> 01:22:39,639 Speaker 3: route and get to that spot right. 1528 01:22:39,680 --> 01:22:39,760 Speaker 2: On. 1529 01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:43,240 Speaker 3: Time yep and that's why really good Corners Like, darrell 1530 01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:45,960 Speaker 3: reeves they would bang their head against the wall and 1531 01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:48,479 Speaker 3: They're Playing Stevie johnson darrell As a Hall. Of famer 1532 01:22:49,040 --> 01:22:55,000 Speaker 3: he could Not cover Stevie because tevie's route tree wasn't a, Route, tree. 1533 01:22:55,680 --> 01:22:57,759 Speaker 2: No it was, a giant. Squiggily. 1534 01:22:57,840 --> 01:23:01,640 Speaker 3: Mess Yeah so stevie was very successful against the very 1535 01:23:01,680 --> 01:23:05,439 Speaker 3: best corners in the league because they didn't have any 1536 01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:06,640 Speaker 3: idea what kind of route he was. 1537 01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:09,080 Speaker 2: Gonna run let's Go to tom and the. 1538 01:23:09,120 --> 01:23:11,720 Speaker 3: Car next?

HE could i 1552 01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:00,639 Speaker 1: think we all know he's a. Talented player but he's six' 1553 01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:03,720 Speaker 1: one and he has thirty one and three. Quarter inch 1554 01:24:03,880 --> 01:24:06,880 Speaker 1: arms like when you're playing in a three, four up 1555 01:24:06,920 --> 01:24:09,880 Speaker 1: front there's gotta be some length to you because the. 1556 01:24:09,920 --> 01:24:15,639 Speaker 1: Gaps are bigger he, Doesn't HAVE length so. I don't 1557 01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:19,280 Speaker 1: know i'm not, a Football coach so i'm not gonna 1558 01:24:19,280 --> 01:24:21,800 Speaker 1: say yes or no thumbs up thumbs. DOWN on that 1559 01:24:22,280 --> 01:24:26,479 Speaker 1: i just know the requisite length in a player that 1560 01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:29,360 Speaker 1: is typically looked for as a three to, four Defensive 1561 01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:35,600 Speaker 1: end and ed physically does. Not measure up doesn't mean he, 1562 01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:38,120 Speaker 1: can't PLAY there but i know that. 1563 01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:38,800 Speaker 3: He's gonna have to. 1564 01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:41,639 Speaker 1: Figure it out how you waight. And, speed matters yeah 1565 01:24:41,720 --> 01:24:43,080 Speaker 1: as far as, scheme fits go. 1566 01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:45,439 Speaker 3: He's gonna have to. Figure it out but we'll. 1567 01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:47,240 Speaker 2: See our exceptions but not many. In this. 1568 01:24:47,360 --> 01:24:51,639 Speaker 3: League we'll see we just have to. Wait and, see 1569 01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:54,679 Speaker 3: but yeah there's there's gonna be some it's gonna boil 1570 01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:59,120 Speaker 3: down to How it's gonna what it's gonna boil down 1571 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:00,960 Speaker 3: to is their pass. R sh ability can they get 1572 01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:05,360 Speaker 3: to the quarterback run stuffing out of a? Fifty, two 1573 01:25:05,439 --> 01:25:08,800 Speaker 3: front yeah the run fits are going to be, a 1574 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:10,519 Speaker 3: little different but they're still gonna have just as many 1575 01:25:10,560 --> 01:25:13,479 Speaker 3: bodies up there. And all that. So we'll see but 1576 01:25:13,560 --> 01:25:15,120 Speaker 3: it's gonna be about his ability to get to the 1577 01:25:15,200 --> 01:25:17,960 Speaker 3: quarterback over the outside edge of a guard rather than 1578 01:25:18,000 --> 01:25:20,840 Speaker 3: head up or inside or the inside edge of the shade. 1579 01:25:20,840 --> 01:25:24,920 Speaker 3: Of the, tackle even so we'll see.
