I'm in Nashville 37 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: this week for the Jet gaming at the Titans. They 38 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: played Monday night in Nashville. I gotta get back. I 39 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: can't stay the game. Wow, the big show. See, I 40 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: have long thought, and we've talked about this tumor, how 41 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: great would it be if the like teams like this, 42 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 1: like Buffalo and Florida and Boston and Tampa Bay, Carolina, 43 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: all these teams with football teams and hockey teams where 44 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 1: the seasons overlap. You got to get a hockey game 45 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: with the two teams, like buff the Sabers and the 46 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: Panthers on Saturday night and the Bills Dolphins on Sunday afternoon. 47 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: They did it a couple of years ago in Nashville. 48 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,239 Speaker 1: We're built. Buffalo went down to Nashville, but it wasn't 49 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: a Sabers game. It was some other hockey team. You 50 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: know what I think, And I don't think this is right, 51 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: But if you're looking for an answer why that doesn't happen, 52 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 1: most of those other cities don't care about their hockey 53 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: team the way Buffalo fans care about this exactly. But 54 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: but Buffalo fans bay absolutely. So think about what a 55 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: great weekend it would be because it was nice. It 56 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: was like this when the Bills played down in Nashville 57 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: two years ago Buffalo, I mean, we did the game 58 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: for CBS. Man, oh man, it was like on down 59 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: in that old town Nashville on Saturday. Oh my god. 60 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: It was like it was like a Bill's tailgate downtown Nashville. 61 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: So think about what would being if it would have 62 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: been a hockey game that night, you know, and then 63 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: same thing with the Sabers going out to Vegas playing 64 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: the Raiders in a couple of years. You know, you 65 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: think about the town, the whole town would get a 66 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: big be like a Super Bowl weekend. Right, it's a 67 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: lot of money. Again, most of people, you know, people 68 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: pay it. Right, you'd be down there. There's a lot 69 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: of rally for Theola to be flying, both teams down 70 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: and all that stuff. They can do it anyway.

I think I wouldn't 110 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: speak for Buffalo. That's great. That's what you're supposed to do. 111 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: Instead of losing five in a row. You're supposed to 112 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: have I think we've talked about this a lot. They're 113 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: supposed to have a winning streak of five, four or 114 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: five six games in a row that you're that you're 115 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: gonna win, that you should string together. And this is 116 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: only two, but three is there? Three is there? So? 117 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: I mean I thought by halftime last week we were 118 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: gonna be just like sitting back, having a couple more 119 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: beers or whatever by halftime. But Jacksonville came back and 120 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: did what they wanted to do, which was to run 121 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: to football. But second half, man, the Bills d stop 122 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 1: put a stop to that, and you think, what do 123 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: you think about that brawl that because that brawl was epic. 124 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 1: It was was not about the fight. I mean like 125 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: it wasn't like fifteen guys getting thrown out in the 126 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: bench of clearing, but what happened and what it meant 127 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: to that game and how it switched everything around, it 128 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: was really unbelievable. It was right, It was unbelievable. I mean, 129 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: I mean, you got farm out there. He he was 130 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: a guy, and all of a sudden they were the 131 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: one yard line and he's not there anymore. So what happened? 132 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: A couple of penalties here, get get a sack, and 133 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: their back first and goal on the half yard line. 134 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: Then it was first and goal on the it was 135 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 1: third and goal on the twenty four right wow. Yeah, 136 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 1: And then he lit of a kick field goal and 137 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: it just and he pulls it and he pulls it. 138 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: See that for me, the crowd went crazy having the 139 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: whole light switch switched around, and and I think that's 140 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: what McDermand was talking about earlier. I think it was 141 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: yesterday when you're talking about the energy that was in 142 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: the stadium. I don't think it was it wasn't so loud, 143 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: I don't think well then, yeah, it was a lot 144 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: of people.

I remember when Bruce 170 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,599 Speaker 1: got thrown out of a game, uh and against the 171 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: Tennessee or we see Houston Oilers. Bruce got thrown out early. 172 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: Their guy got thrown out. He was like a I 173 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: was like him. He was like yeah, he was like 174 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: their third tackle. They were they were happy he was 175 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: off the field. And then we lose. He's the best 176 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 1: pass rusher of altimime. Marv was like, we trade in 177 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: we we lose Miss America and they lose Mall Kettle. 178 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: You know, they lose and then we plug in doctor 179 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 1: Sack who only got three and eight years. Yeah, we lose. 180 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: It was like us losing, us losing Miss American and 181 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 1: they lose Rosanne Barr. That's the trade we made. There 182 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: was the same thing. This last wasn't the same thing. 183 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: But they they lost Leonard Fournete, who's the best player 184 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: in the game and he could, he didn't finish it. 185 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: That's a bad mistake by him. That takes us fright 186 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: into our Twitter poll on the show today, Thurmo, and 187 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: we want to get your take on this, and it 188 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 1: deals with this week's game. Right when you talk about 189 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: that brawl that that Carbal Gardner have with Brian Cox, 190 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: who who's the biggest rival the Bills have? Now, some 191 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: people would argue, and I heard this last week and 192 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: I thought there might be something too that some people 193 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 1: would say the Jacksonville Jaguars are Buffalo's biggest rival. When 194 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 1: you think about a playoff game against them last year. 195 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 1: They seem to play them a lot. You know, almost 196 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: every year. The marone factor of Marcel Darius is down. 197 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: There's some people would say the Jaguars are Buffalo's biggest rival. 198 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 1: Some people would say the Patriots are Buffalo's biggest rival, 199 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: and other Bills haven't have not held up there into 200 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: the bargain. They will call that a rivalry because you 201 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 1: have to win a little bit. You gotta win a 202 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: little bit. Still scratching out one, all right, Some people 203 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: would say the Dolphins are Buffalo's biggest rival. On Twitter, 204 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: we've taken some votes, about two hundred and fifty votes 205 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: so far. Who's currently the Bill's biggest rival? On Twitter? 206 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: Fifty three percent of the respondents believe it or not 207 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: say it's the Patriots, Twenty six percent say the Jaguar 208 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: is only fifteen percent say the Dolphins. Six percent have 209 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: somebody else in mind. That's what they're saying on Twitter? 210 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: Are respondents who's the bills biggest rival? Thurman? Who do 211 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: you think? Which team? I think if you're looking at 212 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 1: right there, I think it's the Jacksonville Jaguar. I think 213 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: with Jalen Ramsey, Sam would he say it? Last years? 214 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: Johnson All the playoff game last year, the scuffle of 215 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: this year. Hey, you know what, let's put these teams 216 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: on the schedule every single year. I'm here on out that. Yeah. 217 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 1: I think that's what you have to do if you're 218 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 1: looking at a rivalry, because you know, like Pittsburgh and Baltimore, 219 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: you know that's a heater rivalry. We don't have that. 220 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: We've lost that with the Dolphins. And I can't say 221 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: it's even a rivalry with the Patriots because they've beat 222 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: us what twenties seven out of thirty times? Man that's 223 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: a streaky rivalry because for a long time they couldn't 224 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: beat us. Through the ninety eighties, nineties and now through 225 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: the UH the New century. They you know, we've they've 226 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 1: been doing it. They saw people talking to me all 227 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,599 Speaker 1: the time about Oklahoma State in Oklahoma. It's not a 228 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: rival because Oklahoma State never beat Oklahoma. Right, it's not 229 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 1: a river until we come to fifty the Dolphins, I mean, 230 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: and I'm old enough to remember the seventies when the 231 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: begiment over twenty, it's an age thing that remains Buffalo's biggest. 232 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: It will take forever for the Bills to pay them 233 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: back for that over twenty. There is there an older 234 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: rivalry than Miami because they've been division robber. You know, 235 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,959 Speaker 1: they've been realignment like three times, all right. They where 236 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: where Seattle's been in and out of the AFC. They were, 237 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: and they had three divisions for long. The Dolphins have 238 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: always been in the business. Divisions came into this is 239 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: I think in sixty six or six seven. Ever since then, 240 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: they've been almost scheduled twice a year, and that Bils 241 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 1: have played the Jets and the Patriots longer and more often. Right, 242 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: I don't like the Jets personally, right, But I don't know. 243 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: But if you if you talk to Miami fans like 244 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: I have back then, yeah, their biggest robberies the Jets, right. Yeah, 245 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: So it's totally different throughout the entire division. Like Miami 246 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: don't hate us as much as we hate them. Jets 247 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: fans would probably say the Patriots are their biggest rivals. Probably. Yeah. 248 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: Here's the thing too, it's always for the fans the 249 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: bye week is their biggest toughest thing they have in 250 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: the Afcasy we get that week off. We can't bet 251 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: anybody that one week. Wow, you're bad. That's a bad one. 252 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: Put that in. Put into the best of John Murphys. 253 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: I think it has to be for the fans, whatever 254 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: team you're talking about, it's the most personal for them. 255 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: For whatever you know, it's the one that they there's 256 00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: something about it that tweaks them and know for for 257 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: a long time, for when we were playing it was 258 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: the Dolph. It was because because Dan Dan and because 259 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: of Don Shula, and because for through that stretch when 260 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: we were going to the playoffs every year we were 261 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,719 Speaker 1: chasing them or they were chasing us. For it was 262 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,079 Speaker 1: right there for the Division title. We played them in 263 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: a championship gunn to go to the super Bowl and 264 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: in their place. Yeah yeah, and so it was. And 265 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: we played them in the playoffs here too. Out Yeah, 266 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: we listen. There's yeah for them, you know, because there 267 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 1: was a couple bunch of times we played down there, 268 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: late third quarter, midway through the fourth everybody was gone 269 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: except Bills fans, and they were all down there right 270 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: around the field behind it was it was it was 271 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 1: a small college home game, right exactly. It turned into it. 272 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: It was turned into it was it was bad for them. 273 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 1: When I talk about this a lot, it's got to 274 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 1: be personal. Derren Thomas with us for the next few minutes. 275 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: But when you were here playing for the Bills, and 276 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: the Bills would play at Miami, it seemed to me 277 00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: you would make a point of going out there before 278 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: kickoff and sort of inciting the Miami fans, right, you 279 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: would go out there and yell back and forth with fans. Well, absolutely, 280 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 1: because you know what, when when when I got here, 281 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: it became personal to me because I came here, I 282 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: was dating Patty and all her family hated Miami. So 283 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: it was right away instant hate. These guys from the 284 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: get go, and yeah, we would go down and I 285 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: as much as I love playing here, I love playing 286 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: down there. Yeah. It was just something about that atmosphere. 287 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: You know. We were like, you know what, when we 288 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: go down, it's no sleeves or nothing, like we're loose. 289 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: We go to eat a good restaurant. We come back 290 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: and you get in the stadium and it's it's bills 291 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: fans everywhere. Now they're up top, but you can still 292 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: hear them, right, I say that too.

In fact, 312 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: I got to kick out of it. A couple of 313 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: weeks ago. Uh, during your number retirement weekend, Darryl Tallely 314 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: shows up with the with the Therman Thomas number thirty 315 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: four jersey. You obviously get a lot of teasing from 316 00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: that from your teammates. Right, Why did Daryl were that jersey? 317 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: Because it's Darrel. That's all I need, and that's all 318 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: I need to say. Yeah, that that's probably had Ricky 319 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: Williams name. Anyway, that's true. I wasn't even I wasn't 320 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: even there long enough. Didn't even that was a great idea. 321 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: I wish I'd have thought of it, though, but you 322 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: let him think of it. I didn't think of it. 323 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: That was great, But hey, that's a business man, that's 324 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: where it goes where it goes.

It was for our 375 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: entire for my entire career here, Miami was the team. Yeah, 376 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 1: it was. So I kind of told the team that 377 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 1: a game little thing, and I said, also, when it 378 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 1: really changed for me personally was the first game. I 379 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 1: think it was the first game back after the eighty 380 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: seven pre strike, and we got off to a slow 381 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: start that game. We were down big in the first 382 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 1: half and get the first half end it all down 383 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 1: in Miami and when you when y'all won, right, yeah, 384 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: And it was it was a game we got off 385 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: to start before him, and uh, the first half ended 386 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: on a kind of a funky play we looked bad 387 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: on it. They got a fumble or something. I remember 388 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: their guy had it at the end of the half, 389 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: and I was and we were walking off, and I 390 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: heard a couple of their guys laugh at us, you know, 391 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 1: like the way that they probably weren't laughing at us, 392 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: but they were laughing. Yeah, and I was. And for then, 393 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 1: for me, it was like it got really personal. Then 394 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, are you serious? I 395 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: was like, ready to fight. I was really It's kind 396 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: of stirred me up. So from that point on it 397 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: got personal for me. We came back in the second 398 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: half that game beat him. Yeah, and uh, from then 399 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: on it was all I think. One of the times 400 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: I got really upset was that, um, when you we 401 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: were playing here and a couple of guys came here, 402 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: like a couple of offensive line. They came here in 403 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: a limo of their offensive line, their offensive alive. They 404 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: took a limo instead of the bus. I'm like, you 405 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: just do that. I can see how that might tweak. 406 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: Oh it struck out. Oh got me going, I got 407 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 1: me going. I can remember too, what a while before 408 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: a game of something would hit him, hit him like that, man, 409 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 1: he would talk loud in the locker room for like 410 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: twenty minutes before the game about how that was such 411 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: an ad just like wouldn't shut up and furthermore, Yeah, yeah, 412 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: you know they used to do some crazy stuff back there, 413 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 1: you know, like they used to like even today they've 414 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: done it a couple They were run like New England 415 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: did against the Bills last year. They were run like 416 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: through where you're warming up and stuff that's right there. 417 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: See that right there? You know you just don't do that, 418 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: especially with me and car wheel around. That's bad. Would 419 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 1: you look for for stuff like that to get your 420 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: worked up like when you're looking to be not really 421 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 1: why it just it just happened to just happened right 422 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: in front of me most of the time. But you 423 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: had your antena, Oh I have all the time, all 424 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,880 Speaker 1: the time. Every week we played him, Yeah, every time 425 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,120 Speaker 1: we played him twice a year for something. Yeah. Pro 426 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 1: athletes are also notorious for for twist and stuff into motivation. 427 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: You know, whether it's intentional or not, it's it's just 428 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: something you do. And yeah, that would have been easy. Man. 429 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: See those guys get out of the limo. Yeahs from 430 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: the Fat Pig golphinsive line and get out of that 431 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 1: in them so I could see it. You got the Jaguars. 432 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: Is Buffalo's current biggest right I think so? I think 433 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,679 Speaker 1: so if you continue to play them, you're in and 434 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,120 Speaker 1: you're out. And I mean with their division and how 435 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: is structured. I mean they could meet in the playoffs 436 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: a couple of times. Really, Yeah, what about your current 437 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: top right? Yeah, that's good. I would say it has 438 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: to be somebody in the division that the Patriots um 439 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: for me or I kind of separate them from from everything. 440 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: I think it would have to be either the Jets 441 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 1: or the Dolphins. I think it's the Dolphins. I still 442 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:54,919 Speaker 1: think it's the Dolphins because I still think there's that 443 00:21:54,960 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: Buffalo cold snow belt versus the Miami beach. Uh. You know, 444 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: they're glitzy kind of lifestyle and our family more family, 445 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 1: down to earth out lifestyle up here.

Who do 556 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: you think? That's our Twitter poll? We just got started 557 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: with that as Thurman about up. We'd like to get 558 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: your calls on that, and maybe you can tweet in 559 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: a response. It's up on our Twitter poll right now. 560 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 1: Who is the current Buffalo Bill's top rival? Is it 561 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: that we just threw out a few names there? Is 562 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: it the Jacksonville Jaguars? On Twitter? Some people have responded 563 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: that yes, it's the Jaguars. Is that the Miami Dolphins 564 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: this week's opponents? Some people say yes the Dolphins? Fifteen percent? 565 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 1: Is that the New England Patriots? Fifty one percent of 566 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 1: you think the Patriots are Buffalo's biggest rival? Seven percent 567 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: of something else in mind. Let's hear your phone nine's 568 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: open eight oh three oh five fifty and toll free 569 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty. It's 570 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: interesting that the take on this because obviously there's a 571 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: kind of goes probably with the age group as much 572 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: as anything in this percent, you know what I mean, 573 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: because anybody who's been born after nineteen what eighty, it's 574 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: kind of probably the Patriots right now, right, Yeah, even 575 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: though the Bills, you know, can't beat him right twenty street. 576 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: I think that's the one they hate the most. Yeah, 577 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: I agree. Bills getting set the head to Miami and 578 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: on the practice field as we speak. Chris Brown, Bills 579 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: inside of Buffalo Bills dot Com is going to join 580 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: this right now from inside the at Pro Sports Training 581 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: Center on the practice field as the Buffalo Bills are 582 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: on the practice field today getting set to play the Dolphins. 583 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: Good afternoon, Chris. Good to have you with us. How 584 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: are you doing today? Doing okay? Back inside, you know 585 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: with the weather snowy outside, or at least snow on 586 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: the ground outside, So back here and Tarn Johnson still 587 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: in that red non contact jersey, as we discussed yesterday, 588 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 1: probably will be that way in the practice setting the 589 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: rest of the year. Charles Clay, though in full pads, 590 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: excellent limited yesterday, seems to be on the road to 591 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 1: returning to the lineup. Probably limited again today, but the 592 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: fact that he's in full pads and going through contact 593 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: and whatnot certainly a good side. Hey, I want to 594 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: ask you two weeks ago, two games ago, anyway, Sean 595 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: McDermott made a pretty big move on the offensive line 596 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: putting Wyatt Teller in there. I know the Bills are 597 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: interested in getting to look in some of their young 598 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: offensive linemen. Is there a chance that maybe they worked 599 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: us some new guys in through the offensive line this 600 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: week against Miami? Well, I mean John Miller's injury with 601 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 1: the oblique strain is an issue with the starting lineup. 602 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: He's not out here again today, at least as far 603 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: as I can see, not ready for practice anyway, So 604 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: I'll be two straight days he's missing practice, So that 605 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: doesn't spell well for him being in the game on Sunday. 606 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: And we saw Ryan Groy was the guy who stepped 607 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: in during the game when he left with the injury 608 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: last week against Jacksonville. But it looks like it might 609 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: be Jeremiah Searles this week manning that right guard spot 610 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: for them. We'll have to see how the rest of 611 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 1: the week plays out, but he's gotten some reps in there, 612 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: and you know, he came to the Bills most of 613 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: his experience as an offensive tackle. He is six foot six, 614 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: so he might look a little tall to play guard, 615 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: but guards are getting taller and taller these days. It 616 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: seems anybody without great superior feet to play left tackle. 617 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: Seems like more and more offensive coaches aren't shy about 618 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 1: moving them inside to guards. So I think he's got 619 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 1: a shot to line up there this week for the Bills, 620 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 1: and that would be a little bit, I mean, be 621 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: a little bit of a surprise or not. I know, 622 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: the injury is there, but Searles is, like you say, 623 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: he's a little tics kind of a is he a 624 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: tackle moving down? I mean, tell us a little bit 625 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: about him. Yeah. I mean he's spent most of his 626 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 1: time in the league as a as a reserve tackle. 627 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: You know, it's spent most of his time with Minnesota, 628 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: got some starts up there due to injury over the 629 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: last couple of years. But you know, he's a guy 630 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: that has bounced around a little bit and he was 631 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: available the Bills grabbed him, and you know he's lined 632 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: up at tackle here. He has also lined up at 633 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: guard so it might be just the difference of opinion 634 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: where this coaching staff sees him as a more viable 635 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 1: guard than tackle because his feet are an elite. Most 636 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 1: of the time he's spent at tackle has been on 637 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: the right side, So you know, it looks like he's 638 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: going to get a shot at right guard here, So 639 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 1: it would be interesting to see if in fact he 640 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 1: gets the nod. We'll talk to coach after practice today 641 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: to see where that's headed at the right guard's by 642 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: with John Miller not out here again today, and whether 643 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: Searles will be the guy that they tabbed to replace him. 644 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: Jeremiah Ceiles claimed by the are picked up by the Bills. 645 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 1: Signed by the Bills back in late September. And he's 646 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: not a rookie by any means. Chris in his fifth 647 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: year in the league, and as you mentioned, he's I 648 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,479 Speaker 1: think it's ten starts with the Minnesota Bikes two years ago. 649 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: This guy's played a little bit, so it's not as 650 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: if they're throwing a raw rookie in there, as they 651 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 1: were they did with Wyatt Teller two weeks ago. Huh right, 652 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: And his play in those ten starts with Minnesota was 653 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 1: a little uneven. Talking to some people up there that 654 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 1: cover the team, you know, they said he wasn't always 655 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: super out there, especially when left in one on one situation. 656 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: So you kind of wonder if the Bills think, well, 657 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,479 Speaker 1: let's see what he can do with the guard position. 658 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 1: Maybe he's a better player in that role than he 659 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: is out on the edge. So that could be the 660 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: thinking here in terms of them giving him giving him 661 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 1: an opportunity in that role. All right, moving on to 662 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: some other stuff. Is there any surprises out there? I 663 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 1: know you said Charles Clay is back on the field 664 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 1: given some work in his hamstring. I know Charles Clay 665 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: will probably be probably be pretty motivated. He could go 666 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: back and play his old team. He came from the Dolphins. Also, 667 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: Derek Anderson still in the concussion protocol. Any reason to 668 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: think that he's going to make any progress towards Sunday 669 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: hard to say. I mean, I don't have to tell you, Steve. 670 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: Every concussion that every person has is different. This one 671 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: seems to be really troubling him in terms of making 672 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: that next step in the concussion protocol. He's practiced on 673 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: a limited basis. He did that last week. He's doing 674 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: that this week, we'll see if he ever gets up 675 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: to being a full participant. That's the final hurdle he 676 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: has to clear to get full medical clearance and be 677 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 1: clear to play in a game. Should it come to 678 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: that and he has to step onto the field, that 679 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: will also present another interesting question. Where does the depth 680 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: chart fall behind Josh Allen. You know, Matt Barkley's performance 681 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: against the Jets was certainly an impressive start with what 682 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: he was able to do in that game. Did that 683 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: alter you know, what the pecking order is behind Josh 684 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: Allen even when Derek Anderson is medically cleared and healthy. 685 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 1: I don't know. That's another question for coach as to whether, 686 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 1: you know, maybe Barkley moves up to two and Anderson's 687 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 1: the three. We'll have to ask coach on that. As 688 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: far as Clay Goes, I talked to him after practice 689 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: yesterday and he said it's feeling good. As we know, 690 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: hamstring injuries are tricky. You know, we can feel good 691 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 1: when you're moving and building up to top speed. The 692 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 1: key with a hamstring and coming back from it, the 693 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:36,720 Speaker 1: proper way is can you burst and make that rapid 694 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: jump of acceleration and does the hamstring hold up. Then 695 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 1: that's the true test, and you really don't want to 696 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: test that too early because you are victim to potential 697 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 1: injury again to that same problem. So they've taken their 698 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,320 Speaker 1: time with it. He's been out a month counting the 699 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: bye week, so you know, I would think it's close 700 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,359 Speaker 1: to time for him to get back on the the field. 701 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 1: He said, Look, all signs are encouraging for me this week. 702 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 1: I just want to wait and see until we get 703 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: to the end of the week. I don't think he 704 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: wants to count his chickens just yet, but he is 705 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: getting reps with the ones out here this week, so 706 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: I think that's a good sign. Chris Brown, Bills inside 707 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,439 Speaker 1: of Buffalo Bills dot Com, joining us from the practice field. 708 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: The other side of the wall over there is the 709 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:20,760 Speaker 1: Bills are on the practice field getting set for the Dolphins. 710 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: And on the topic of quarterbacks, Chris Josh Allen. As 711 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,400 Speaker 1: we watch him and you're watching him out there, it's 712 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: clear to see he still has that black sleeve on 713 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: his right elbow and going down his forearm a little bit, 714 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: and he talked about that a little bit yesterday. I 715 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 1: think he sounded almost comfortable with that black sleeve on 716 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 1: his right arm. What do you think I think, based 717 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 1: on what he was telling us yesterday, it's purely for 718 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: peace of mind. I mean we asked him, like, do 719 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: you really need that on your arm, you know, to 720 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 1: make all the throws that you're making. He said, look, 721 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,840 Speaker 1: I could probably take it off and my arm's fine. 722 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,240 Speaker 1: And I'm sure the athletic trainers and the medical staff 723 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 1: have told him the same thing. You don't need to 724 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: wear the sleeve, but if it gives you peace of mind, 725 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 1: then leave it on. I mean, it certainly isn't impacting 726 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: is throwing as we saw last week, and I think, 727 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 1: you know, knowing how that injury occurred with basically his 728 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 1: elbow getting sandwiched between two helmets, maybe that little extra 729 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 1: sleeve provides an inch of cushioning should he take a 730 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 1: knock on it again, And maybe he believes that reduces 731 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,759 Speaker 1: the risk of re injuring the elbow. If that's gonna 732 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 1: make him feel more comfortable out on the field, put 733 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: the sleeve on. Yeah, there's no reason to get cray. 734 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 1: If it's just if he can throw it, leave it on. 735 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: He did have a he wore something a little bit 736 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 1: different on game day. I don't know whether it was 737 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 1: just different color or whether it was the same just 738 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: a different sleeve over the top of the brace, but 739 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 1: certainly it didn't inhibit his ability to throw the ball deep. 740 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,400 Speaker 1: He did it on a couple of occasions and was 741 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 1: pretty accurate doing it. Brownie talked a little bit. I mean, 742 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 1: what do you think about this game plan for the Bills? 743 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: How is it going to be different than it was 744 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 1: for the Jaguars. The Miami defense is not as formidable 745 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 1: on paper as as the Jaguars defense was a week ago. 746 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 1: Where does this take our offense? And what's the next 747 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,760 Speaker 1: step in the game plan? Yeah, it's gonna be interesting 748 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,760 Speaker 1: because I see I think if there are a couple 749 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 1: of things that the Dolphins do have that's similar to 750 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: the Jags, as they have Kiko Alonzo and ray Kwon McMillan, 751 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: who are two linebackers that can cover a lot of ground. 752 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 1: So I think Jacksonville, at least in that area of 753 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 1: the Dolphins defense, may serve as good prep for the 754 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: players on the offensive side of the ball for the Bills. 755 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,439 Speaker 1: But the bottom line is this, the Dolphins are having 756 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 1: all kinds of trouble up front stopping the run game. 757 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: I mean, opponents are averaging almost one hundred and forty 758 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: yards on the ground. If ever there was a week 759 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: to have Lashawn McCoy go off, it would be this week. 760 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 1: And why not have a run game actually support the 761 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 1: pass game instead of the other way around. It's been 762 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 1: a problem all season long. And I know you may 763 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,879 Speaker 1: be having a change at the right guard spot if 764 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: John Miller camp play, but I think you try to 765 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,720 Speaker 1: ride you run game early in this one. Control the clock, 766 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: control the pace and tempo of this game, and hopefully 767 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: you're opening one or two possessions. You can really establish 768 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: the run game, get down into scoring territory and put 769 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,720 Speaker 1: some points on the board. I really think that Miami, 770 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 1: they're psyche, is very fragile right now. They've lost four 771 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: of their last five. They're a very streaky team. If 772 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 1: you watch last week's game against the Colts, you know 773 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: they're down early in that game. They come back, score 774 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,399 Speaker 1: seventeen straight points to take the lead, and then give 775 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,840 Speaker 1: up the final thirteen points of the ball game and 776 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: lose by a field goal at the end. I don't 777 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 1: know about the mental toughness of this team. It's hard 778 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: to gauge them. Talking to some reporters down there in Miami. 779 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 1: It's a very mercurial team, just kind of up and 780 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 1: down all season long, sometimes within the scope of a game, 781 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: from quarter to quarters, sometimes even series to series. So 782 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: you really don't know what you're walking into down there 783 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 1: in Miami. I mean, maybe they could be up because 784 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 1: it's a division game, or maybe after losing four of 785 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 1: their last five and that window in terms of margin 786 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: forever for them to keep playoff hopes alive is shrinking 787 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 1: so much that they just say, oh the hell with it. Hey, 788 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: last question I have for you, Chris, and our next 789 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:16,760 Speaker 1: guest coming up after the top of the hour, Armando 790 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:21,240 Speaker 1: Salguero has written this. Jordan Phillips, former Dolphin and released 791 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,399 Speaker 1: by the Dolphins, signed immediately by the Bills, and he's 792 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 1: been a contributor, not you know, a great contributor, but 793 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,719 Speaker 1: a contributor in the Buffalo defense, plays with a lot 794 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: of passion. What do you think he's thinking about going 795 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: back to play the team that let him go, that 796 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:33,920 Speaker 1: gave up on him a couple of just a couple 797 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 1: of weeks ago. Yeah, my intern Kyle Sialagi talked to 798 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 1: him just the other day about that, And let's just 799 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 1: say he's fired up to go face his former team. 800 00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 1: I don't think he was happy with the way that 801 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 1: it ended. He's a guy that talks a lot on 802 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:52,399 Speaker 1: the field. He's an emotional player. So I think he's 803 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: gonna be loaded for bear on Sunday. So if coach 804 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 1: Frasier wants to give him an extra ten or fifteen 805 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 1: snaps on Sunday, I don't think he's gonna blink because 806 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:05,400 Speaker 1: he knows he's gonna be getting, you know, high RPM 807 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: play from Jordan Phillips on Sunday, because I think he 808 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 1: wants to prove something to that coaching staff. He felt 809 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: that he was not getting enough playing time down there. 810 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 1: He felt he deserved more and didn't get it, and 811 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 1: things ended kind of sour down there for him, and 812 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 1: I think he wants he feels he has a point 813 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:26,320 Speaker 1: to prove that hopefully will benefit the Bills on Sunday. 814 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 1: That'll be fun. Yeah, Hey, Chris, thanks for this. You 815 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 1: got guys, Chris Brown Bills inside of Buffalo bills dot 816 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 1: Com joining us from the practice field where the Bills 817 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,879 Speaker 1: are getting said, Remember we had Jordan Phillips on the show. 818 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 1: I believe after his first game he did not want 819 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,320 Speaker 1: to talk about his time in Miami. Member He's like, 820 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,880 Speaker 1: that's in the past. I mean, he's got a problem 821 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:45,680 Speaker 1: with this. Listen. Yeah, And I think you're right. I 822 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:50,320 Speaker 1: think he's gonna be really motivated to play well against 823 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. In fact, I would not be surprised at 824 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: all if he starts the game, Okay, you know, I mean, 825 00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: I think I think Sean mcdermam would have his finger 826 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: on the poll elson he say, listen, you're in fact, 827 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 1: I'll bet he's an honor a captain for the game, 828 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I mean, I think I 829 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 1: think I kind of put the guy out there and say, Okay, 830 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 1: you wanted to let's go, let's see it, and we're 831 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 1: gonna support you. You know, we're there with you. Let's go. 832 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,320 Speaker 1: I think you give that guy a chance to to 833 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 1: u to shine. And I think this coaching staff having 834 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 1: you know this the guy that you know they gave 835 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 1: Kyle Williams a touchdown here down here last year. You know, 836 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 1: they there, they got their finger on the pulse of 837 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 1: guys who are really invested in a game or have 838 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 1: something going on in it. And I think the fact 839 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: that Jordan Phillips is one of those guys this week, 840 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 1: you can bet they're gonna give him some extra reps 841 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 1: at least, if not, if not, give him a prominent role. Yeah, Hey, 842 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:39,800 Speaker 1: what do you think? What's the bills biggest rival? Is 843 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 1: it the Dolphins, the Patriots, is it the Jaguars? Somebody else? 844 00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 1: Give us a call.

Give us 855 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,879 Speaker 1: a call or participate on Twitter eight three fifty toll 856 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: free one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty, 857 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 1: or you can do it on Twitter, sent us in 858 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 1: a tweet or voting on a Twitter poll. Elane from 859 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: Arizona on the line with us to talk about this, Elane, 860 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 1: where in Arizona? Are you Masa Mesa right outside Da Phoenix? Right? Yeah, 861 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:55,359 Speaker 1: I love that part of the country. What do you think, Elaine? Yes, 862 00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:01,360 Speaker 1: it is Kelley versus Marino's biggest rival of the Dolphins 863 00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 1: on today because there's so many changes in the teams 864 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 1: today that you don't have the rival that you had 865 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 1: in the eighties in early nineties. Yeah. But here's the thing. 866 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: Here's a thing, Elane. What happens when you start playing 867 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 1: a team in like as a division rival and then 868 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 1: also in the playoffs? You know, I mean, isn't that 869 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 1: when you get meaningful games when you're when the division 870 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 1: lead is on the line and things are going that way, 871 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: And isn't that kind of what makes a rivalry you 872 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,760 Speaker 1: when you guys played, Yeah, well it was a rivalry 873 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 1: when we played, no question about it. And part of 874 00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:33,399 Speaker 1: it was because of what you said, Because the game 875 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,239 Speaker 1: seem to always have meaning. They always seem to mean something. 876 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 1: Many times they meant well, they meant a trip to 877 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 1: the super Bowl at one time, right right, We played 878 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 1: him in an AFC Championship, We played him in the 879 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,000 Speaker 1: in the division round of the playoffs one year here 880 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 1: in Buffalo, the AFC Championship game in Miami, we played 881 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 1: him for the you know, the lead in the division 882 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 1: on a number of occasions, and this also that was 883 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: after the nineteen seventies where they won twenty straight games 884 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 1: against the franchise, and that really, I think you can 885 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,839 Speaker 1: imagine when if the Bills ever get to the point 886 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 1: where they're gonna start beating the Patriots on a regular 887 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,879 Speaker 1: basis half the time or sixty percent of the time, 888 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: you can bet that there are a lot of fans 889 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:13,759 Speaker 1: here in Buffalo they're gonna relish every win after what 890 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 1: they've been through the last seventeen years. Those's biggest rival. 891 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 1: Who do you think it is? Tom? On the West 892 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: side of Buffalo? Go ahead, Tom, you're on the air 893 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:21,799 Speaker 1: with this. Hey, guys. I was born in fifty nine, 894 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 1: and like Elaine, she's probably retired in Arizona, beautiful. I 895 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 1: wish I could anyway. My first game was at the 896 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 1: rock Pile against Green Bay. I still hate green Bay 897 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:37,279 Speaker 1: to this day. During the day, it was Miami and 898 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:41,839 Speaker 1: that was a great rivalry back then. Yeah, like all, 899 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,880 Speaker 1: like all rivalries, I believe that one died. It is 900 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 1: now the Patriots, because the Patriots are the rival of 901 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:53,279 Speaker 1: every team in the NFL. Okay, I don't think there's 902 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 1: a question. I mean, and there's a little bit to 903 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,359 Speaker 1: be said about this, not certainly not to the extent 904 00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:59,239 Speaker 1: the Patriots, but back in the in the team that 905 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 1: you're referring to, back in the nineties of the Buffalo Bills, 906 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 1: we felt like every team treated us a little differently. 907 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 1: They viewed that team. You know, teams who win consistently 908 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:10,880 Speaker 1: and win big, and particularly if you go into a 909 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 1: place and beat them soundly in their building, they remember it, 910 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 1: and I think their fans remember it. So yeah, a 911 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,200 Speaker 1: team like the Patriots could have like maybe ten teams 912 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 1: around the NFL that think, man, that's the team that 913 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 1: we want to crush, you know, so they can feel 914 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 1: like everybody feels like the Patriots are their rivalries. There's 915 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 1: a little bit of that, and we had a little 916 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 1: bit of that back in the day. Certainly with the 917 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 1: rest of the teams in our division. It went that way. 918 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:39,720 Speaker 1: But uh, yeah, for fans when I said this earlier, 919 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: it's it's personal, you know, like you like, like Tom mccaller, 920 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 1: he remembers green He hates Green Bay because he was 921 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,360 Speaker 1: there with the first team he saw play the Bills 922 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:51,360 Speaker 1: in a rock pile, and he still has that. So 923 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 1: for fans, it's got to be personal, right, Do you 924 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 1: have a personal Jets? Really? Yeah? I did say that 925 00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 1: that is something with you is And I've noticed that 926 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 1: in our conversations. Every time the Jets come up, you're 927 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,440 Speaker 1: like them, You're like hate them. I don't like them. 928 00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 1: That's I don't I don't care. That's everybody's no. I 929 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:09,719 Speaker 1: don't think so. Yeah, but it's but I'm introduced here. 930 00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,600 Speaker 1: Lay down on my on the therapist couch here and 931 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 1: tell me why why you have scarred mental and emotional 932 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,920 Speaker 1: scar tissue concerning the New York Jets. You know, there's 933 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,320 Speaker 1: just I don't like going down there. The stadium is 934 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 1: not you know, it's an expensive stadium that's not that good. Um, 935 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 1: which that bothers me. But I don't care. They can 936 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 1: spend their money any anyway they want. But it's still 937 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 1: there is the Jets. I don't know if that goes 938 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 1: back to name it. Maybe there is just a little 939 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 1: bit of angst there about their stage, even though it's new. 940 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 1: The whole attitude down there. You know, they think they 941 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: invented pro football down there. And is there any sense 942 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 1: of envy on your part? Oh god, no, No, I 943 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:43,880 Speaker 1: don't want to be the Jets. Never, never wouldn't be 944 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: the Jets. No, sir, I don't know, You're not. I 945 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 1: don't think it doesn't sound convincing. Amateur amateur cycleanalysis going 946 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,920 Speaker 1: on here? Did it go back to Joe Namath a 947 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 1: little bit little bit? Yeah, And I didn't hate Nameth 948 00:46:58,120 --> 00:46:59,839 Speaker 1: in fact, I rooted for them in Super Bowl three, 949 00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 1: But um, you know, they got a lot of attention 950 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 1: back then, and the and the Buffalo Bills just two 951 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:07,320 Speaker 1: years prior to their big year or three years anyway, 952 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 1: should have been there where the AFL champs. I mean 953 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:11,319 Speaker 1: they twice. I mean the Bills had really a great 954 00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,680 Speaker 1: team that they've got a fraction of the attention the 955 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: Jets got in nineteen sixty eight. So I think that's 956 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 1: probably the root of it. Yeah, I get it, am 957 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:23,319 Speaker 1: I done. I'll come back from more analysis. I think 958 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 1: our appointment, I think I think one of the things 959 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 1: about it is and we've we've skirted around this too. 960 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 1: The Jets have been around the playing the Bills a 961 00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:33,040 Speaker 1: long time. There's a lot of history, deep history. Same 962 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 1: thing with the Patriots, same and same same thing with 963 00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Since their inception, they've been they were hit 964 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,120 Speaker 1: in the league what five years after the Bills got 965 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,759 Speaker 1: in sixty seven, yeah, seven seven or eight years seven, 966 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 1: eight years, seven years. So for the entire length of 967 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:49,120 Speaker 1: their history, they've been an opponent twice a year of 968 00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:50,920 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. So there's a lot of water under 969 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 1: the bridge between the Jets and the Bills and the Dolphins, 970 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:55,840 Speaker 1: and and as certain and the Patriots as well. So 971 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,360 Speaker 1: I I can see that it's gotta you know, you 972 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:00,040 Speaker 1: kind of revolve around those and you can say the 973 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,920 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars here of late have certainly had a couple 974 00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 1: of big games, but I think it when you go 975 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:08,759 Speaker 1: down deep into the history, it's got to be one 976 00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:11,880 Speaker 1: of those three division teams. The Dolphins first year was 977 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,440 Speaker 1: nineteen sixty six. The Bills played him in Week three 978 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,440 Speaker 1: in the nineteen sixty sixth season, beat him fifty eight 979 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 1: to twenty four. Exactly. I'll go for that. Let's do 980 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 1: that again. We gotta break here. Armando Salguero of the 981 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 1: Miami Herald gonna join us and we return.

Armando Solguero of the 1035 00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:13,879 Speaker 1: Miami Herald on the line with us. Armando, Welcome back 1036 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:15,600 Speaker 1: to the show. John Murphy and Steve task are up 1037 00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,200 Speaker 1: here in Buffalo. Thanks for joining US. Yes, I have 1038 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:22,400 Speaker 1: covered the Dolphins way back when the Dolphins and the 1039 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:25,000 Speaker 1: Bills would get together at the end of every year 1040 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:29,040 Speaker 1: and the Bills would come to South Florida. The Dolphins 1041 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,240 Speaker 1: would have high hopes and then the Bills would squash 1042 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:36,440 Speaker 1: those hopes. It was wonderful, Armando, It was fun then 1043 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 1: while it lasted. What talk a little bit about this team. 1044 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:44,000 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill's back in the SATLLUS quarterback What does that mean? 1045 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,880 Speaker 1: Did it mean anything? Was it noticeable? Did the team's 1046 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 1: demeanor performance? What changed when Tannehill got back on the field. Well, 1047 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:58,880 Speaker 1: I would say that a significant part of the offense 1048 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:03,279 Speaker 1: in that they ran a lot more routes that receivers 1049 00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:07,520 Speaker 1: could get deep on. That was apparent, although they didn't 1050 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 1: really connect on any of those. But you know, Ryan, 1051 00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:14,960 Speaker 1: regardless of his shoulder injury and it's still injured, it's 1052 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 1: not a hundred, he does have a better arm than 1053 00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:23,560 Speaker 1: Brock Osweiler, and so that that opened things up a 1054 00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:26,520 Speaker 1: little bit. Also, he ran the ball a couple of times, 1055 00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 1: so he's a lot more mobile than Osweyder. But other 1056 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:33,759 Speaker 1: than that, not a whole lot change. Least of all 1057 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:38,319 Speaker 1: and most importantly by the way the result they lost 1058 00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:44,800 Speaker 1: the game. And so you know, some people they they 1059 00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:48,200 Speaker 1: resigned themselves to not judging a quarterback based on wins 1060 00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:51,160 Speaker 1: and losses because it is a team game. But let's 1061 00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:55,279 Speaker 1: face it, the team game revolved around that one guy, 1062 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:59,360 Speaker 1: and if that one guy can't can't help you win games, 1063 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 1: that one guy is a question mark. Well, with m 1064 00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 1: Armando Salgaro, the Miami HEROLD talking about the Dolphins, Buffalo's opponent, 1065 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:10,920 Speaker 1: Armando Stephen, I had this discussion in our office earlier today. 1066 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:14,360 Speaker 1: And you've seen every game that Tannehill has played in 1067 00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,839 Speaker 1: the NFL. Where would you where would you put him? 1068 00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:20,600 Speaker 1: Is he average quarterback, better than average, slightly less than average? 1069 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 1: Where would you rank him among NFL quarterbacks? That's part one. 1070 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:26,680 Speaker 1: Part two is what does his future look like with 1071 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:32,280 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. So if you're if you've got thirty two teams, 1072 00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:35,319 Speaker 1: which obviously you do, and that means you've got thirty 1073 00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:40,360 Speaker 1: two starting quarterbacks, Ryan and somewhere in the sixteen seventeen 1074 00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:45,200 Speaker 1: on some days, maybe fifteen on other days. But he's 1075 00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:48,439 Speaker 1: a very middle of the pact type of guy. He's 1076 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 1: not an elite quarterback. You know, he is not the 1077 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 1: guy that's going to give you hope at the start 1078 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:59,239 Speaker 1: of the season that you're going to contend for a 1079 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:04,120 Speaker 1: Super Bowl title. And that's been the problem because he's 1080 00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:07,560 Speaker 1: thirty years old now, he's been with the team seven years, 1081 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,799 Speaker 1: and up until the start of this year, there were 1082 00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:16,200 Speaker 1: still questions about, well, can he improve to the next level? 1083 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:20,640 Speaker 1: Can he be the next guy? I think those questions 1084 00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 1: have been answered. And the fact that he's missed so 1085 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:27,440 Speaker 1: many games. He missed all of twenty seventeen, he missed 1086 00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:30,359 Speaker 1: five games this year, and he missed four games at 1087 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:34,440 Speaker 1: the end of twenty sixteen. That kind of is affecting 1088 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:39,200 Speaker 1: the opinion of Ryan Tannehill down here. And the effect is, 1089 00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:40,800 Speaker 1: I don't know that he's going to be the starting 1090 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:45,080 Speaker 1: quarterback next year. That they went into Indianapolis last week, 1091 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,920 Speaker 1: they lost by three points after you know, kind of 1092 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:50,800 Speaker 1: having to dig out of a hole early to the Colts. 1093 00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:53,840 Speaker 1: And you were a little bit critical in one of 1094 00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:57,000 Speaker 1: your articles about the play calling going down the stretch. 1095 00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:00,680 Speaker 1: What is the opinion of most Dolphin fans, Adam Gaze, 1096 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 1: how he handles the offense with or without Ryan Tannehill. Right, 1097 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 1: So here's the problem, Adam is a great person. He's 1098 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:15,719 Speaker 1: he is a leader. I'll give him that. He's a 1099 00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 1: guy that guys want to play for and and respect. 1100 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:24,920 Speaker 1: But they were tied with three minutes to play in 1101 00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:28,720 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. They were at their own six yard line, 1102 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:33,120 Speaker 1: and they faced a third and ten situation, and with 1103 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,680 Speaker 1: his starting quarterback in the game, the game on the line, 1104 00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:40,800 Speaker 1: and by the way, the Dolphins had defense had just 1105 00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:46,520 Speaker 1: collapsed to Andrew Luck who had you know, erased a 1106 00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 1: ten point deficit, and now the game was tied. In 1107 00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:56,480 Speaker 1: that situation, the Dolphins handed the ball off and decided, 1108 00:55:56,840 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 1: we're not we're not going to try to throw on 1109 00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 1: this the Indianapolis Colts. And this is the part where 1110 00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 1: I dare you guys to name me two players on 1111 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:12,239 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts defense, because frankly, most people can't, and 1112 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:16,920 Speaker 1: much less their defensive front. What people down here in 1113 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:23,239 Speaker 1: South Florida have decided is, dude, you basically curled up 1114 00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 1: into the fetal position and didn't attack. And that's not 1115 00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:32,640 Speaker 1: who you've been and that's not who you say you've been. 1116 00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 1: So that was a problem and that that's where the 1117 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:41,200 Speaker 1: criticism came from. Now I understand that the book and 1118 00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:44,240 Speaker 1: the odds and all that stuff. It was against the Dolphins. 1119 00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:49,000 Speaker 1: It was bad, really bad. Like the Colts have stopped 1120 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:54,800 Speaker 1: ninety plus percent of third and ten plus situations the 1121 00:56:54,920 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 1: last all all seasons, and so the odds were bad. 1122 00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:04,720 Speaker 1: But you know, just because it went poorly for other teams, 1123 00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 1: you're accepting that it will go poorly for your team. 1124 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:12,080 Speaker 1: And again, the Dolphins defense is wretched. I mean they're 1125 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:16,360 Speaker 1: really bad. And Andrew Luck had him on their heels 1126 00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:22,200 Speaker 1: and that was the unit that Adam Gays showed more 1127 00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:25,840 Speaker 1: confidence in. Huh I mindo, I have an opinion about 1128 00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 1: Adam Gates. I want to run by you. I think 1129 00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 1: he's probably a really good coordinator of offense and your 1130 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:34,919 Speaker 1: last example not with standing in a pretty good play caller. 1131 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's a head coach. What do 1132 00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 1: you see there? What do you see from Gates? Now? 1133 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:40,440 Speaker 1: So he works his way through his what third year 1134 00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:46,360 Speaker 1: with the Dolphins? Right? Right? Well, I would say that 1135 00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:51,560 Speaker 1: the jury is out and you know, so he's been 1136 00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:54,880 Speaker 1: here three years. His record as a head coach is 1137 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:59,320 Speaker 1: twenty six and twenty seven. By the way, you want, 1138 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:02,840 Speaker 1: you guys want a stat Yes, we love stats since 1139 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety four. In other words, a quarter of a century. 1140 00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:11,840 Speaker 1: The Miami Dolphins record has been one ninety six and 1141 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:19,600 Speaker 1: one ninety seven. Wow, since twenty four years? Well is 1142 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:22,320 Speaker 1: it twenty four? How many seasons is that? Is that 1143 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 1: almost twenty five seasons? Yeah? Yeah, So So the thing is, 1144 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 1: folks down here they don't like mediocrity. They hate mediocrity because, 1145 00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:39,320 Speaker 1: as Jimmy Johnson one said, the enemy of great is good. 1146 00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:45,920 Speaker 1: Good gets you the number sixteen draft pick in the 1147 00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:50,680 Speaker 1: first round. Good, maybe you get into the playoffs. Probably 1148 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 1: you don't. But either way, you're not doing anything. You're 1149 00:58:54,880 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 1: not competing for a championship. Good means that you're not 1150 00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:07,000 Speaker 1: winning any division titles. Good means that basically you're irrelevant. 1151 00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:12,760 Speaker 1: You got no shot. What's the point? And so down here, 1152 00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:15,600 Speaker 1: that's the debate that's going on right now. Look, the 1153 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:19,280 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts who just beat the Dolphins, they were really 1154 00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:25,640 Speaker 1: great for over a decade with Peyton Manning. In fact, 1155 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 1: for fifteen years with Peyton Manning, and then they had 1156 00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 1: one horrible, catastrophic, awful, terrible seasons and that put him in, 1157 00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:39,640 Speaker 1: you know, in a position to pick oh yeah, Andrew 1158 00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 1: Luck and now he's gonna be great for fifteen more years. 1159 00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 1: That is the way to do it. And I know 1160 00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,800 Speaker 1: that there's certain amount of luck in that, but let's 1161 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:54,520 Speaker 1: face it, if you don't have an elite quarterback, a 1162 00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:58,000 Speaker 1: great quarterback, you don't have a chance to win a 1163 00:59:58,080 --> 01:00:00,360 Speaker 1: super Bowl. And if you don't have a chance to 1164 01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:06,000 Speaker 1: win a super Bowl, what's the point there? Ego, Armando, 1165 01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 1: you said at all I want and I wanted to 1166 01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:10,400 Speaker 1: ask you as well. When as the Buffalo Bills come 1167 01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 1: down to face the Dolphins this weekend, what is the 1168 01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 1: opinion buy and large of Dolphin fans and maybe the 1169 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:19,640 Speaker 1: Dolphins team about the Buffalo Bills, where they are right 1170 01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:23,200 Speaker 1: now and where their roster is. What's their opinion about 1171 01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 1: how this game is gonna go? Right? So, the Dolphins 1172 01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:29,960 Speaker 1: expect to win, their fans expect them to win. If 1173 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:34,360 Speaker 1: they don't, it'll be armageddon, because frankly, the Dolphins are 1174 01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:37,000 Speaker 1: good at home. They're four and one at home right now, 1175 01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:39,600 Speaker 1: and they're terrible on the road. They're one in five. 1176 01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:42,360 Speaker 1: If you ask me the last week in December, what 1177 01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:46,040 Speaker 1: fans expect will happen when the Dolphins visit Buffalo. I 1178 01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 1: would say to you they expect to lose, but this 1179 01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:51,440 Speaker 1: week they expect to win. And where the Bills are 1180 01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 1: it goes back to the conversation we had before. Look, 1181 01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:57,280 Speaker 1: the Bills are not a good team. I'm sorry to 1182 01:00:57,320 --> 01:00:59,880 Speaker 1: say this, but they're just not just just they got 1183 01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:03,480 Speaker 1: that they got a lot of work to do. But 1184 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:06,880 Speaker 1: the Bills have something that the Dolphins don't in that 1185 01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:11,040 Speaker 1: they've got the hope that a quarterback that they picked 1186 01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 1: this year will develop into something great the next Jim 1187 01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:21,680 Speaker 1: Kelly maybe. And I know that's asking a lot, somebody 1188 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:25,800 Speaker 1: that will head and be the face of the franchise 1189 01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:29,480 Speaker 1: and be a guy that other teams will go, oh crap, 1190 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:33,919 Speaker 1: we got to play him this week. The Dolphins don't 1191 01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 1: have that. The Dolphins have a thirty year old guy 1192 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:39,720 Speaker 1: that they're still trying to make a decision on. The 1193 01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 1: Bills have hope. The Bills have a foundation that they're 1194 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:48,280 Speaker 1: gonna have salary cap room next year, and they're gonna 1195 01:01:48,320 --> 01:01:52,200 Speaker 1: have fairly high picks next year. None of those things 1196 01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:56,000 Speaker 1: applied to the Miami Dolphins. The Miami Herald is with us. 1197 01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:59,080 Speaker 1: He covers the Dolphins beat reported they're also a Pro 1198 01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:01,960 Speaker 1: Football Hall of Fame Arando do us a favorite. Steve 1199 01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:04,520 Speaker 1: and I had a disagreement the other day about was 1200 01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:07,600 Speaker 1: it yesterday about Frank Gore fourth all time rusher? I 1201 01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:09,760 Speaker 1: know that, but is he in fact a Hall of 1202 01:02:09,840 --> 01:02:12,080 Speaker 1: Famer Frank Gore the Dolphins running back? What do you think? 1203 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,800 Speaker 1: I believe he is? And the reason that I believe 1204 01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:20,120 Speaker 1: he is is again I know the argument, Well, he's 1205 01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:22,640 Speaker 1: played forever and so that's the reason he's number four 1206 01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:25,720 Speaker 1: all times. Well, longevity is a thing. Yeah, that's a 1207 01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:29,400 Speaker 1: great thing. That's not You don't ding guys for longevity. 1208 01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:33,760 Speaker 1: You you raise guys up for longevity. And the bottom 1209 01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:37,760 Speaker 1: line is over his career, I believe his yards per 1210 01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:41,040 Speaker 1: carry average is about four point four, which again is 1211 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:44,720 Speaker 1: better than most guys in the Hall of Fame. Now, 1212 01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:49,400 Speaker 1: so I don't understand who wasn't that was against Frank 1213 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:51,240 Speaker 1: or oh that was that would have been me? Yeah, 1214 01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 1: I know better, and I did back down, although I 1215 01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:57,200 Speaker 1: don't know today. I woke up and had second thoughts 1216 01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:59,080 Speaker 1: about back and you know what, Armando, I said the 1217 01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:01,840 Speaker 1: exact same thing. You'd yeah, he's he's got all those yards, 1218 01:03:01,920 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 1: but he's he's thirty fight played for fifteen years, I said, 1219 01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:07,120 Speaker 1: that's you know, you see other guys in the Hall 1220 01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:10,240 Speaker 1: of Fame and that was kind of their their way 1221 01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:13,080 Speaker 1: too great statistics over their careers because they did play 1222 01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:14,640 Speaker 1: a long time. That is a thing. And I'll tell 1223 01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:18,360 Speaker 1: you what, players really respect longevity as much as they 1224 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:22,160 Speaker 1: respect statistics. That's that's as big a thing for players, 1225 01:03:22,600 --> 01:03:24,520 Speaker 1: and I guess from what you're telling us, it's a 1226 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:28,000 Speaker 1: thing for the Hall of Fame voters as well. Absolutely. 1227 01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:31,840 Speaker 1: And again it's not like, you know, he's averaging three 1228 01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:35,240 Speaker 1: point four yards a carry throughout his career. He's a 1229 01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:38,560 Speaker 1: four and a half almost pop. Well, don't you you're 1230 01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:40,160 Speaker 1: gonna get into the Hall of Fame meeting, you know, 1231 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:42,600 Speaker 1: five six years down the road, Armando and his name 1232 01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:44,840 Speaker 1: will come up, And don't you think somebody's gonna stand 1233 01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:46,920 Speaker 1: up and say, hey, this guy was never the best 1234 01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:49,120 Speaker 1: running back in the league during his career and he 1235 01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:52,680 Speaker 1: never led the league in rushing during his career. That's true, um, 1236 01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:56,720 Speaker 1: And they will say that. In fact, it has been 1237 01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:59,880 Speaker 1: said of many players that have been coming up lately. 1238 01:04:02,040 --> 01:04:07,400 Speaker 1: You know why Terrell Darrell Owens didn't not Terrell Owens, 1239 01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:11,840 Speaker 1: the kid from Denver, What was the running back from Denver. 1240 01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:15,560 Speaker 1: Who oh, Terrell Davis. Terrell Davis, you know why he 1241 01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:17,640 Speaker 1: didn't make it his first year. The guy rushed for 1242 01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:20,920 Speaker 1: two thousand yards one year. He was amazing. He was 1243 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:24,919 Speaker 1: the best from in a three year span, maybe ever. 1244 01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:28,800 Speaker 1: But he only played like six years and he was 1245 01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:31,760 Speaker 1: only good like four and a half of those years. 1246 01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:37,160 Speaker 1: He was a shooting star, right, Frank Gore, He wasn't 1247 01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:40,840 Speaker 1: a shooting star. He was the Sun and he melted 1248 01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:45,520 Speaker 1: defenses away for a long time. All Right, I pumped 1249 01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:47,720 Speaker 1: the brakes on the Sun thing. But yeah, I get it. Yeah, 1250 01:04:47,760 --> 01:04:49,720 Speaker 1: I understand that completely. One last thing I want to 1251 01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:51,720 Speaker 1: ask you about Romando before we come back. We've got 1252 01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:53,840 Speaker 1: a guy on the Bills team up here named Jordan 1253 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 1: Phillips who may just be a hair more motivated than usual. 1254 01:04:58,000 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 1: Not that he hasn't played well for the Bills up 1255 01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:03,440 Speaker 1: this far are but there's no question he's got to 1256 01:05:03,480 --> 01:05:05,440 Speaker 1: feel like he's got something to prove by the to 1257 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:10,360 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. How how does that get viewed from the 1258 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:15,640 Speaker 1: Miami end of the equation? So the Dolphin. Yeah, motivation 1259 01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:17,800 Speaker 1: is the thing for Jordan. When he's got it, he's 1260 01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:23,160 Speaker 1: dangerous when he does it. Um. Look, the Miami Dolphins 1261 01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:26,440 Speaker 1: are taking the high road on Jordan Phillips. They're not 1262 01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:31,120 Speaker 1: going to say anything negative about Jordan Phillips, but their 1263 01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:34,480 Speaker 1: actions speak loudly about what they caught. They cut the 1264 01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:39,680 Speaker 1: guy after a game in which she and his position 1265 01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:45,040 Speaker 1: coach got into a heated sideline discussion. Let's put it 1266 01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:49,840 Speaker 1: that way. And you know they they used words that 1267 01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:53,120 Speaker 1: are not used in mixed company at each other. Right. 1268 01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:59,520 Speaker 1: They sided with the coach. They decided that his career 1269 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:04,160 Speaker 1: was not worthy of continuing here. And they had really 1270 01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:07,560 Speaker 1: put it on Jordans because Jordan's in a contract year 1271 01:06:08,200 --> 01:06:14,280 Speaker 1: and so he had that motivation to use and he 1272 01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:18,600 Speaker 1: really wasn't using it the first four and a half 1273 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:21,920 Speaker 1: games or so that he was here. I'm glad that 1274 01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:24,800 Speaker 1: he's done a whole lot better in Buffalo, But let's 1275 01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:28,680 Speaker 1: face it, what is Jordan Phillips. Jordan Phillips is a 1276 01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:34,800 Speaker 1: rotational defensive tackle, twenty five snaps the game, solid backup. 1277 01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:38,680 Speaker 1: He's not you know, the guys, let's not. We're not 1278 01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:42,080 Speaker 1: talking about Aaron Donald, right. I wonder I have one 1279 01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:43,800 Speaker 1: more question for you, and this one is about a 1280 01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:47,120 Speaker 1: former Buffalo bill I always appreciated Keiko Alonso love the 1281 01:06:47,120 --> 01:06:50,000 Speaker 1: way he played here. Two part question, how is Keiko playing? 1282 01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:53,440 Speaker 1: And is he in fact a dirty player? I get 1283 01:06:53,480 --> 01:06:56,800 Speaker 1: the sense. I try not to put too much, you know, 1284 01:06:57,920 --> 01:06:59,680 Speaker 1: wait under what you eat on Twitter? But there's a 1285 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:01,840 Speaker 1: person option. Maybe it's just a Buffalo thing that Keko 1286 01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:03,960 Speaker 1: is somehow some kind of a head hunter and a 1287 01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:06,120 Speaker 1: dirty player. Is he a dirty player? And now's he 1288 01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:12,439 Speaker 1: playing in general? Well? Okay, so he's playing, Well, he's 1289 01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:16,040 Speaker 1: making plays. We're all speaking in the context of the 1290 01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:19,600 Speaker 1: Dolphins have September twenty nine ranked run defense in the NFL. 1291 01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:23,040 Speaker 1: So understand that, right, He's not. He's not, you know, 1292 01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:29,240 Speaker 1: like a Buffalo favorite Brian Cox or somebody like that, Thomas. 1293 01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:34,320 Speaker 1: But as far as head hunter, if you talk to Keiko, 1294 01:07:34,760 --> 01:07:41,320 Speaker 1: he is a very shy, introverted kind of guy. Doesn't 1295 01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:43,880 Speaker 1: say a lot, doesn't like to say a lot. His 1296 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:46,680 Speaker 1: dad has told me Keko doesn't talk to the family 1297 01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:49,720 Speaker 1: very much. He's had a lot of fun around the 1298 01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:52,040 Speaker 1: dinner table. Yeah, let me let me just end his 1299 01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:54,160 Speaker 1: dad AROUNDO. His dad told me when he played here, 1300 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:55,920 Speaker 1: he said, we have to listen to your radio show 1301 01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:57,800 Speaker 1: because Keko never calls home. We don't know what's going 1302 01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:01,840 Speaker 1: on up there exactly exactly. You know, the dad has 1303 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:05,840 Speaker 1: a great personality and and Kiko got zero percent of that. 1304 01:08:07,160 --> 01:08:10,040 Speaker 1: But having said that, is he a headhunter? Is he 1305 01:08:10,160 --> 01:08:13,720 Speaker 1: a I don't see that. Look, he's been in some 1306 01:08:13,920 --> 01:08:18,720 Speaker 1: plays like Jordan's. Uh not Jordan's, Um Joe Flacco last 1307 01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:21,880 Speaker 1: year that everybody saw on a prime time game. I think. 1308 01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:25,880 Speaker 1: So Joe Flacco is sliding at the last moment and 1309 01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:30,960 Speaker 1: Kiko was in mid air. Unfortunately for Kiko, he cannot 1310 01:08:32,040 --> 01:08:35,599 Speaker 1: defy the laws of gravity and physics. He just couldn't. 1311 01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:38,800 Speaker 1: Uh So he landed on you know, he went at 1312 01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:44,519 Speaker 1: the guy's head. I didn't see an elbow, did you know. Um, 1313 01:08:45,360 --> 01:08:48,840 Speaker 1: I didn't see him giving him the business afterwards, So 1314 01:08:49,840 --> 01:08:52,799 Speaker 1: I don't you know. And and bottom line is Kiko 1315 01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:58,240 Speaker 1: is is a speed type of player. He's not a 1316 01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:02,640 Speaker 1: bulk Earth type of player, right, And so I'm not 1317 01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:06,000 Speaker 1: sure that he's doing a whole lot of damage. I 1318 01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:09,800 Speaker 1: will say this, and this is pretty funny. Earlier this year, 1319 01:09:10,080 --> 01:09:15,840 Speaker 1: somebody jacked him up on a play, and yes, and 1320 01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:18,640 Speaker 1: he ended up going to the jet sideline. Yeah, he 1321 01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:22,439 Speaker 1: was so mixed up that she went to the jet 1322 01:09:22,560 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 1: sideline afterwards and they're like, get out here, dude, and 1323 01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:32,720 Speaker 1: he's like, oh, that was probably like the most paragraphs 1324 01:09:32,760 --> 01:09:36,680 Speaker 1: he has spoken this year. But he's a good natured kid. 1325 01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:39,120 Speaker 1: He really is. I think so too. Armando, great to 1326 01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:40,960 Speaker 1: talk to you. Thank you for spending a few minutes 1327 01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:42,479 Speaker 1: with us. Year today we appreach it. We'll see you 1328 01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:45,120 Speaker 1: Sunday down there, all right, man, thank you, Thank you. 1329 01:09:45,280 --> 01:09:47,960 Speaker 1: Armando saw Garo from the Miami Harold Beat, writer covers 1330 01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:52,240 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Longtime a Dolphins reporter since nineteen ninety, he 1331 01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 1: joined us on the Subway Fresh State Hotline, presented by 1332 01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:58,080 Speaker 1: Subway Restaurants, probably locally owned and operating. Armando was right 1333 01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:00,479 Speaker 1: about Kiko. It was that. I think it was Thursday 1334 01:10:00,560 --> 01:10:03,559 Speaker 1: night game against the Ravens quest year when he drilled flak. 1335 01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:05,400 Speaker 1: Oh it was. He got penalized for it, as he 1336 01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:07,479 Speaker 1: should have. But I don't think it is a history 1337 01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 1: of cheap hits or going after quarterbacks. Now. He's a 1338 01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:14,680 Speaker 1: fast guys. He's a little bit like the Bills fans now, 1339 01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:17,320 Speaker 1: and don't forget you know, the Bills. He started his 1340 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,200 Speaker 1: career here and remember the legend of Kiko Alonso. I 1341 01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:22,000 Speaker 1: mean it was a big thing that he was a 1342 01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:24,360 Speaker 1: rookie that came in and started playing well right away. 1343 01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 1: But he's a little bit to me, he's like Matt Milano. Yeah, 1344 01:10:29,160 --> 01:10:30,960 Speaker 1: currently right. I mean they kind of fall into that 1345 01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:33,800 Speaker 1: same category where they were kind of playmakers. They were 1346 01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:37,000 Speaker 1: always around the ball, they were fast guys. They weren't 1347 01:10:37,040 --> 01:10:41,760 Speaker 1: like big a big gritty run stuffers, but they were playmakers. 1348 01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:44,960 Speaker 1: And uh, I think that's exactly what Kiko Alonso is 1349 01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:46,920 Speaker 1: and has been throughout his career. He's on his third 1350 01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:49,320 Speaker 1: team now and it's the Mammi Dolphins. You seem twice 1351 01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:52,280 Speaker 1: a year. Yep, Hey, thank you, Tarmado. We'll take a break. 1352 01:10:52,320 --> 01:10:54,400 Speaker 1: We're coming back with more One Bills Live from One 1353 01:10:54,439 --> 01:11:13,880 Speaker 1: Bills Driving. This is Buffalo Bills Radio. Welcome back to 1354 01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:16,640 Speaker 1: the show, The Big Show, John Murphy's Steve Tasker here 1355 01:11:16,720 --> 01:11:19,120 Speaker 1: until three o'clock today. We're halfway through it and it 1356 01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:21,519 Speaker 1: feels like we just started. What a good show this 1357 01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:25,519 Speaker 1: is really? Don't you agree? Yeah, it's it's been fun 1358 01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:32,240 Speaker 1: so far. It's been really Amandouero so Gara, I was correct? Algara, Yeah, 1359 01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:35,080 Speaker 1: all right, thank you. Armando was great. Yeah, he's a 1360 01:11:35,120 --> 01:11:37,120 Speaker 1: good friend of the show, I guess coming on. Yep, 1361 01:11:37,800 --> 01:11:41,559 Speaker 1: he has. He's been covering the NFL since eighty two, 1362 01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:49,200 Speaker 1: it said, I thought, yeah, that's wow. He cried he 1363 01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:52,800 Speaker 1: crushed the Dolphins on a couple of occasions, but imreshable. Yeah, 1364 01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:55,320 Speaker 1: but he's you know, he's a beat writer, so they 1365 01:11:55,400 --> 01:11:58,439 Speaker 1: do that. He's they're crushable. Hey, we want to know 1366 01:11:58,479 --> 01:12:00,960 Speaker 1: from you who's the Bill's biggest rival. That's the topic 1367 01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:03,080 Speaker 1: of the day. It's our Twitter poll. Who do you 1368 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:06,439 Speaker 1: think is the one team that really gets Bills fans 1369 01:12:06,560 --> 01:12:09,519 Speaker 1: worked out? On Twitter? We've asked that question since noon. 1370 01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:11,880 Speaker 1: We got a lot of responses in and on Twitter. 1371 01:12:12,600 --> 01:12:15,200 Speaker 1: Fifty one percent of you say it's the Patriots, the 1372 01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:17,360 Speaker 1: Bills have always struggle against. Twenty five percent of you 1373 01:12:17,439 --> 01:12:21,240 Speaker 1: say it's the Jaguars, and just fifteen percent say the Dolphins. 1374 01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:23,719 Speaker 1: Let's know what you think eight h three five fifty 1375 01:12:23,720 --> 01:12:27,280 Speaker 1: to three one eight eight eight. Got some tweets. Yeah, 1376 01:12:27,320 --> 01:12:30,280 Speaker 1: we have not read any any responses from the tweet sheet, 1377 01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:32,720 Speaker 1: but here's a couple of them from Joe Nataro. As 1378 01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:34,920 Speaker 1: much as I'd like to say the Dolphins, which was 1379 01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:37,200 Speaker 1: definitely the answer when I was a kid. That rivalry 1380 01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:39,240 Speaker 1: is all but dead today. I don't know what the 1381 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:41,920 Speaker 1: Bills really have that their Bills really have a rivalry 1382 01:12:41,960 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 1: these days. Maybe the Jets. That's from Joe, Okay, from 1383 01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:49,240 Speaker 1: Diehard Dan. I think the number one rival is still 1384 01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:53,040 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. The decade of Miami's dominance, leading to Kelly 1385 01:12:53,120 --> 01:12:56,639 Speaker 1: into Kelly versus Marino, the Snow Game, and most recently 1386 01:12:56,720 --> 01:12:59,320 Speaker 1: the high scoring give and take of wins between teams 1387 01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:04,000 Speaker 1: the Patriots two. But honestly, a lawnmore doesn't have a 1388 01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:09,960 Speaker 1: rivalry with the grass. That's good. I never heard of 1389 01:13:10,040 --> 01:13:12,880 Speaker 1: that before. That's really good. The Lawhard doesn't have a 1390 01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:15,720 Speaker 1: rivalry with grass. That's pretty good. I gotta tip my 1391 01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:19,680 Speaker 1: hat to die Hard Day. One thing that happens now 1392 01:13:19,840 --> 01:13:21,720 Speaker 1: and it happened back then in the nineties two when 1393 01:13:21,800 --> 01:13:24,080 Speaker 1: when the Bills were and the Dolphins are going at it. 1394 01:13:24,439 --> 01:13:29,200 Speaker 1: Uh these games in South Florida. I'm telling you last 1395 01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:31,960 Speaker 1: January it was New Year's Eve, maybe a third of 1396 01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,519 Speaker 1: the stadium were Bills fans. And that'll happen again Sunday. 1397 01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:37,160 Speaker 1: Maybe not, Yeah, probably it will be percent will be 1398 01:13:37,240 --> 01:13:39,200 Speaker 1: Bills fans. There's a lot of people headed down there. Yeah, 1399 01:13:39,240 --> 01:13:41,719 Speaker 1: people headed down there, people to live down there, people 1400 01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:45,080 Speaker 1: all over Florida, Rance plants, people all over Florida from 1401 01:13:45,280 --> 01:13:48,759 Speaker 1: from western New York, and Bills fans, and they traveled 1402 01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:50,640 Speaker 1: to this game. And they make this a part of 1403 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:53,679 Speaker 1: their regular annual calendar. Bills that Dolphins, That'll that'll happen 1404 01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:55,200 Speaker 1: this Sunday. And it used to be as well that 1405 01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:58,280 Speaker 1: the team, because it was always that rivalry and it 1406 01:13:58,320 --> 01:14:00,960 Speaker 1: was always going to be an important game. Even the team, 1407 01:14:01,080 --> 01:14:03,519 Speaker 1: the business development people, the PR people, they would bring 1408 01:14:03,640 --> 01:14:07,639 Speaker 1: clients and partners, corporate sponsors down with them, take trips 1409 01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:09,679 Speaker 1: down there to the Miami and they, you know, they'd 1410 01:14:09,720 --> 01:14:12,000 Speaker 1: have a couple of parties, a couple of social events 1411 01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:15,280 Speaker 1: in conjunction over the weekend with the game, because you know, 1412 01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:17,960 Speaker 1: Miami is a destination at this time of year, and 1413 01:14:18,920 --> 01:14:21,880 Speaker 1: they'd take advantage of it. Yep, Joe and Jamestown, Bill's 1414 01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:25,760 Speaker 1: biggest rival right now, Who do you think it is? Joe? Joe? 1415 01:14:25,880 --> 01:14:29,040 Speaker 1: Do we lose you? I believe we lost him. Joe, 1416 01:14:29,120 --> 01:14:30,880 Speaker 1: call back. That might have been my fault, but thanks 1417 01:14:30,920 --> 01:14:34,400 Speaker 1: for calling. I got the wrong My phones keep cutting out. 1418 01:14:34,439 --> 01:14:36,519 Speaker 1: See what are you laughing about I'm trying to run. 1419 01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:38,760 Speaker 1: I'm laughing with you, Murph, not at trying to do. 1420 01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:42,960 Speaker 1: Here is Robin Rochester Bill's biggest rival. Rob Are you there? 1421 01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 1: I think you are? I am. I am here, guys, 1422 01:14:46,120 --> 01:14:48,280 Speaker 1: And I was going to call and talk to you 1423 01:14:48,400 --> 01:14:51,280 Speaker 1: guys about why I think the Dolphins are the biggest rival. 1424 01:14:51,360 --> 01:14:52,880 Speaker 1: I was going to give my point, but I had 1425 01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:58,080 Speaker 1: much rather just say that you guys both Steve Tasker. 1426 01:14:58,240 --> 01:14:59,920 Speaker 1: Steve Tasker did a lot for me with the Bill 1427 01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:01,600 Speaker 1: when I was growing up. He helped me find the 1428 01:15:01,640 --> 01:15:05,599 Speaker 1: magic of the Bills. And I also think that you John, 1429 01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:08,800 Speaker 1: You gave me a lot of passion for the Bills. 1430 01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:12,559 Speaker 1: So thank you for that and welcome. Thank you. Can 1431 01:15:12,640 --> 01:15:15,640 Speaker 1: you guys, can you guys say that joke about the 1432 01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:20,040 Speaker 1: lawnmower again? Because I had missed the I didn't get punchline, Well, 1433 01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:23,559 Speaker 1: the lawnmower doesn't have a rivalry with the grass. That hard. 1434 01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:25,960 Speaker 1: Dan was trying to make the point that he hates 1435 01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:29,200 Speaker 1: the Patriots, but to say the Patriots have a rivalry 1436 01:15:29,240 --> 01:15:31,400 Speaker 1: with the Bills or vice versa. He says, honestly, a 1437 01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:36,439 Speaker 1: lawnmower doesn't have a rivalry with grass, the lawnmore chops 1438 01:15:36,479 --> 01:15:40,680 Speaker 1: down grass. Yes, but the lawnmower positions the Patriots or 1439 01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:43,600 Speaker 1: the lawnmower, And that's in that joke, so you can 1440 01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:44,960 Speaker 1: figure the rest of it out. Rob. Did you ever 1441 01:15:45,040 --> 01:15:46,519 Speaker 1: hear when you have to explain a joke that all 1442 01:15:46,520 --> 01:15:48,120 Speaker 1: of a sudden it's not funny anymore. I think we've 1443 01:15:48,160 --> 01:15:51,200 Speaker 1: just proved that theory. What else did you want to 1444 01:15:51,240 --> 01:15:53,360 Speaker 1: talk about, Rob, Because we only had to squish the 1445 01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:55,120 Speaker 1: fish thing going on, even when we had to kill 1446 01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:57,639 Speaker 1: spikes and we were bad, like all those years where 1447 01:15:57,680 --> 01:16:00,320 Speaker 1: we were seven and nine and stuff like, we always 1448 01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:05,880 Speaker 1: had the Dolphins to sort of like say, Okay, we're 1449 01:16:05,880 --> 01:16:08,240 Speaker 1: not gonna make the playoffs. We're horrible, but like the 1450 01:16:08,280 --> 01:16:10,680 Speaker 1: at least we beat the Dolphins, and the Patriots were 1451 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:14,400 Speaker 1: good at that Dolphins. Everyone agreed we're still the biggest rival. 1452 01:16:14,920 --> 01:16:17,800 Speaker 1: Do you guys think that with us being like mediocre 1453 01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:20,120 Speaker 1: with them that it's sort of the same thing now, 1454 01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:23,760 Speaker 1: like we can rekindle that or you don't have to 1455 01:16:23,760 --> 01:16:25,519 Speaker 1: speak to that. Just what do you guys think of 1456 01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:29,000 Speaker 1: the Dolphins? Does our arrival even though we're not good? 1457 01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:31,479 Speaker 1: That's what I would like to hear you speaking, they're 1458 01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:33,320 Speaker 1: not good either. Yeah, they're not good either. And I 1459 01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:35,400 Speaker 1: think it's I think it's for it to be a 1460 01:16:35,479 --> 01:16:38,519 Speaker 1: really a real rivalry, there's got to be something on 1461 01:16:38,560 --> 01:16:40,280 Speaker 1: the line more than just one win or loss. There's 1462 01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:42,280 Speaker 1: got to be playoffs on the line. There's got to 1463 01:16:42,320 --> 01:16:44,519 Speaker 1: be division crown on the line. There's got to be 1464 01:16:44,600 --> 01:16:47,120 Speaker 1: important things on the line. For it to be a rivalry, 1465 01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:49,320 Speaker 1: the fans have to feel the importance of the game 1466 01:16:49,439 --> 01:16:52,200 Speaker 1: rather than just there's just one more game on the schedule. 1467 01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:54,519 Speaker 1: And at this point for both these teams, them at 1468 01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:56,840 Speaker 1: what to five and six, the Bills at four and seven, 1469 01:16:57,200 --> 01:16:59,240 Speaker 1: you know this is you kind of got to think, well, 1470 01:16:59,360 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 1: you know, in this big scheme of things, this is 1471 01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:05,280 Speaker 1: just another another notch in the long history, because this 1472 01:17:05,479 --> 01:17:07,000 Speaker 1: is not one of those games that's going to mean 1473 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:08,559 Speaker 1: something at the end of the season to either one 1474 01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:12,080 Speaker 1: of these teams in the playoff run or the division title. Certainly, 1475 01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:13,880 Speaker 1: the Bills want to want to extend it to a 1476 01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:16,400 Speaker 1: three game winning streak. The Dolphins want to do more 1477 01:17:16,439 --> 01:17:18,960 Speaker 1: than just lose four out of their last five. But 1478 01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:23,720 Speaker 1: until these games get meaningful for both teams, then I 1479 01:17:23,840 --> 01:17:25,880 Speaker 1: think you got you gotta think that's not really the 1480 01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:29,640 Speaker 1: kind of rivalry we're talking about. I don't know about that, 1481 01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:33,720 Speaker 1: I think, and you can there's plenty of examples of 1482 01:17:33,880 --> 01:17:36,320 Speaker 1: a long time I'm thinking college football here, mostly long 1483 01:17:36,360 --> 01:17:38,120 Speaker 1: time rivals have played each other every year, and the 1484 01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:40,720 Speaker 1: games don't have a great amount of importance other than 1485 01:17:40,840 --> 01:17:44,040 Speaker 1: the game. You know, Harvard and Yale, where are they 1486 01:17:44,080 --> 01:17:46,519 Speaker 1: going nowhere? When they play? It's a rivalry game, you know. 1487 01:17:47,280 --> 01:17:49,400 Speaker 1: So I do think you can have a decent, not 1488 01:17:49,600 --> 01:17:53,240 Speaker 1: great rivalry, but a decent rivalry against a long time opponent. 1489 01:17:53,280 --> 01:17:56,320 Speaker 1: And I think that's what the Bills and Dolphins qualified 1490 01:17:56,360 --> 01:17:58,040 Speaker 1: for here. I get it. It's more fun where there's 1491 01:17:58,040 --> 01:18:00,320 Speaker 1: a lot on the line. Hasn't been between these two 1492 01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:02,719 Speaker 1: for a while. But I mean, I'll to be honest 1493 01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:04,479 Speaker 1: with the Steve. That New Year's Eve game last year, 1494 01:18:04,479 --> 01:18:05,880 Speaker 1: and the Bills of course had to win to get 1495 01:18:05,880 --> 01:18:07,559 Speaker 1: a chance at the playoffs. They did, and we all 1496 01:18:07,840 --> 01:18:10,439 Speaker 1: worked out that was fun to do that against the Dolphins, 1497 01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:13,200 Speaker 1: and to have Kyle Williams score a touchdown against the Dolphins, 1498 01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:15,680 Speaker 1: and to win in Miami on New Year's Eve with 1499 01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:18,479 Speaker 1: the place almost half full with Bills fans, that was fun. 1500 01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:20,720 Speaker 1: The fact that it was the Dolphins, I think last 1501 01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:22,840 Speaker 1: last year, last New Year's Eve. The fact that it 1502 01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:25,800 Speaker 1: was against the Dolphins added to that. I'm sorry, go ahead, 1503 01:18:25,840 --> 01:18:29,799 Speaker 1: what'd you say? I forgot about that game? That game? Actually, 1504 01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:33,360 Speaker 1: that pumps me up a lot about this game, because 1505 01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:34,800 Speaker 1: do you remember the fights they were having and Kyle 1506 01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:37,880 Speaker 1: Williams finally scored a touchdown and that was awesome. Yeah, 1507 01:18:38,200 --> 01:18:40,000 Speaker 1: somebody got out of the game. There was a couple 1508 01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:42,439 Speaker 1: of scuffles. The receiver got thrown out of the game. 1509 01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:44,920 Speaker 1: I'll say this. We talked about this earlier in the show, 1510 01:18:46,160 --> 01:18:50,120 Speaker 1: and I had spoken to the Bills this morning about 1511 01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:52,559 Speaker 1: this rivalry and game, a kind of a history lesson, 1512 01:18:52,640 --> 01:18:54,960 Speaker 1: and I said, you know, there there is some animosity there. 1513 01:18:55,080 --> 01:19:00,200 Speaker 1: And Sean McDermott showed the plays in which there was 1514 01:19:00,240 --> 01:19:02,559 Speaker 1: a scuffle last year. He showed a couple of us. 1515 01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:05,360 Speaker 1: They've got it does mean something, This is something different, 1516 01:19:05,439 --> 01:19:10,080 Speaker 1: This is there is an extra level. Yeah. So right, 1517 01:19:10,520 --> 01:19:13,439 Speaker 1: so it was important. And I think another thing that 1518 01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:17,280 Speaker 1: gets lost in this Bills fans go down to see 1519 01:19:17,360 --> 01:19:20,479 Speaker 1: Miami play, to their Bills play against the Miami Dolphins. 1520 01:19:20,479 --> 01:19:22,160 Speaker 1: You say it's because of the weather, and because it's 1521 01:19:22,160 --> 01:19:24,599 Speaker 1: a great destination, that's fine. But they're going down there 1522 01:19:24,600 --> 01:19:27,519 Speaker 1: because their team is down there. You don't see that 1523 01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:31,080 Speaker 1: in Buffalo. Miami doesn't bring fans up here with them. 1524 01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:32,920 Speaker 1: And you can laugh at that and say, hey, yeah, 1525 01:19:32,920 --> 01:19:35,280 Speaker 1: well of course they don't because it's not adinate. Hey whatever, 1526 01:19:36,080 --> 01:19:42,960 Speaker 1: I didn't hear. I didn't hear any outrage in Miami fans, 1527 01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:47,640 Speaker 1: their their writers, anybody associated with a team that was 1528 01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:51,280 Speaker 1: all that upset with them getting beat by Buffalo last year. 1529 01:19:52,680 --> 01:19:56,200 Speaker 1: They were they were not and they were not emotionally 1530 01:19:56,240 --> 01:19:59,840 Speaker 1: invested in that game, and they were an absolute mess. 1531 01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:01,840 Speaker 1: And you know, I was thinking going back to Chris Brown, 1532 01:20:01,840 --> 01:20:04,040 Speaker 1: who joined us about an hour ago from the practice field, 1533 01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:07,200 Speaker 1: talking about the current Dolphins problems, and yes, they've lost 1534 01:20:07,200 --> 01:20:09,240 Speaker 1: two in a row, tough loss at Indie last week. 1535 01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:10,840 Speaker 1: Yes they've lost four or five, they were three and 1536 01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:13,920 Speaker 1: oz and now they've lost what seven of their last six, 1537 01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:15,960 Speaker 1: of their last seven I think it is maybe seven 1538 01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:19,240 Speaker 1: or last date. But Chris talked about how maybe the 1539 01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:21,240 Speaker 1: Dolphins are done. And I said this to you last 1540 01:20:21,280 --> 01:20:24,639 Speaker 1: week about Jacksonville. I've learned over the years, painfully sometimes 1541 01:20:24,960 --> 01:20:26,960 Speaker 1: never to count on a team just mailing it in. 1542 01:20:27,080 --> 01:20:28,840 Speaker 1: I just don't think you can. In the NFL. The 1543 01:20:28,920 --> 01:20:31,320 Speaker 1: only team that, in my mind will do that more 1544 01:20:31,439 --> 01:20:33,759 Speaker 1: often than not are believe it or not, my favorite 1545 01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:37,720 Speaker 1: New York Jets. I've seen the Jets cave and I have. 1546 01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:39,479 Speaker 1: I've seen them just kind of. They did it a 1547 01:20:39,520 --> 01:20:41,519 Speaker 1: couple weeks ago against Buffalo. I've seen them do it 1548 01:20:41,640 --> 01:20:44,080 Speaker 1: more than any of the team over my entire career. 1549 01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:46,320 Speaker 1: Seeing the Jets maybe the only team that you can 1550 01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:48,280 Speaker 1: count on for just saying add we're out, we're done. 1551 01:20:48,520 --> 01:20:50,559 Speaker 1: I wouldn't count on that against the Dolphins. I think 1552 01:20:50,600 --> 01:20:52,920 Speaker 1: they did last December. Did they do it again? I 1553 01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,120 Speaker 1: don't know. There's five games up to play. I don't 1554 01:20:55,120 --> 01:20:57,120 Speaker 1: think they do. Most teams don't do that. It was 1555 01:20:57,600 --> 01:20:59,800 Speaker 1: the end of a bad season, last year's last game 1556 01:20:59,840 --> 01:21:03,160 Speaker 1: of the Year's eve, you New Year's Eve, they were done. Um, 1557 01:21:03,320 --> 01:21:06,240 Speaker 1: this is a different scenario than that you think. You know, 1558 01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:09,080 Speaker 1: we've been we've you know, you get snark on Twitter 1559 01:21:09,800 --> 01:21:11,519 Speaker 1: and and there was a lot of it after the 1560 01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:13,679 Speaker 1: game last week where the Bills obviously climbed in They're 1561 01:21:13,840 --> 01:21:16,160 Speaker 1: like in the hunt on the television graphics because they're 1562 01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:18,760 Speaker 1: not mathematically eliminated. The Dolphins are far from their game 1563 01:21:18,800 --> 01:21:21,479 Speaker 1: ahead of the Bills. Do you think we're not that 1564 01:21:21,800 --> 01:21:25,840 Speaker 1: that is like not even on their radar. They are 1565 01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:31,960 Speaker 1: so off, that is so off their topic of conversation list. Um, 1566 01:21:33,360 --> 01:21:35,599 Speaker 1: that's where they're at there mentally. I don't think they're 1567 01:21:35,720 --> 01:21:37,599 Speaker 1: even to the point where they're thinking about big picture. 1568 01:21:37,640 --> 01:21:39,639 Speaker 1: I never count on that. I never I think you've 1569 01:21:39,680 --> 01:21:41,439 Speaker 1: got to think they're gonna come in and play hard. 1570 01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:43,680 Speaker 1: Most teams play hard. They're gonna play hard, So why 1571 01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:45,599 Speaker 1: the games are pretty good most of the time. Here 1572 01:21:45,680 --> 01:21:48,200 Speaker 1: is a Colin in California.

On another note, there a Steve Pasker. 1594 01:22:52,040 --> 01:22:53,880 Speaker 1: I want to say to you that you were one 1595 01:22:53,920 --> 01:22:57,560 Speaker 1: of our greatest special teams players where you followed you 1596 01:22:57,640 --> 01:22:59,960 Speaker 1: a lot. We think you're quite a quite a player there. 1597 01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:04,559 Speaker 1: Thank you. I appreciate it. The person and I want 1598 01:23:04,600 --> 01:23:09,680 Speaker 1: to say is the super Bowl that was one with 1599 01:23:09,840 --> 01:23:13,680 Speaker 1: the soft football with Tom Berdie. This this really hit 1600 01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:16,800 Speaker 1: a lot of us hard. Yeah. That wasn't a super Bowl, right, 1601 01:23:16,840 --> 01:23:20,679 Speaker 1: it was a playoff game against Indianapolis. Yeah right, Well, 1602 01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:22,519 Speaker 1: I'm sorry about that. You have a playoff, but we 1603 01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:27,320 Speaker 1: figured that should have been played over again. Okay, We're fine, 1604 01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:29,920 Speaker 1: then brought. I mean, it's just a personal thing that 1605 01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:32,840 Speaker 1: makes you think, hey, these guys cheated, and you know, 1606 01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:34,800 Speaker 1: and they got away with it more or less. And 1607 01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:36,640 Speaker 1: now he's put on a pedestal, you know, in one 1608 01:23:36,680 --> 01:23:39,679 Speaker 1: of the biggest quarterbacks, which is fine, but I think 1609 01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:43,200 Speaker 1: we have one that's going to be a Jim Kylie rival. 1610 01:23:43,280 --> 01:23:45,560 Speaker 1: I think Josh Allen is going to be one of 1611 01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:48,880 Speaker 1: the greatest quarterbacks that the Bills have had. I really 1612 01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:51,680 Speaker 1: do believe that. Okay, I hope you're right. Thanks very 1613 01:23:51,760 --> 01:23:54,840 Speaker 1: much for Colin. Jim. Josh Allen schedule to join us 1614 01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:57,040 Speaker 1: when practice ends. Practice probably gonna end of a fifteen 1615 01:23:57,040 --> 01:23:58,560 Speaker 1: to twenty minutes or so. I just want to go 1616 01:23:58,560 --> 01:24:01,880 Speaker 1: back a minute. He started out talking about you as 1617 01:24:01,920 --> 01:24:04,560 Speaker 1: a great special teamer. But I think we have a 1618 01:24:04,640 --> 01:24:07,920 Speaker 1: voting irregularity here. We do. He never actually said I'd 1619 01:24:07,960 --> 01:24:09,679 Speaker 1: want to vote for Steve for the Hall of Fame, 1620 01:24:09,720 --> 01:24:14,080 Speaker 1: and for some reason, the voting counters we've employed vote 1621 01:24:14,120 --> 01:24:17,400 Speaker 1: counters in the other room accidentally. I believe it's the reality. 1622 01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:20,320 Speaker 1: The reality of how far fetched it is is starting 1623 01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:22,760 Speaker 1: to say, you're starting to just count votes that don't count. 1624 01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:24,479 Speaker 1: That was not a vote, So we'd like to take 1625 01:24:24,520 --> 01:24:26,560 Speaker 1: that vote off the board, if that's possible board. I 1626 01:24:26,640 --> 01:24:28,519 Speaker 1: don't think that counts as a Steve Tasker Hall of Fame. 1627 01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:31,000 Speaker 1: Reality of the hill that you've chosen to climb is 1628 01:24:31,000 --> 01:24:32,920 Speaker 1: starting to sink in. Now, what are you talking about. 1629 01:24:33,479 --> 01:24:35,960 Speaker 1: You're starting to get their counting votes in the back 1630 01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:39,240 Speaker 1: that don't even don't even votes. They're desperate, see nobody, 1631 01:24:39,400 --> 01:24:41,519 Speaker 1: see no, no, no. I just want to have I 1632 01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:44,080 Speaker 1: don't want there to be any question when you're officially 1633 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:46,599 Speaker 1: voted into the Pro Football of Fame by Bills fans. 1634 01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:49,320 Speaker 1: I don't want any questions. I don't want any challenges. 1635 01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:51,920 Speaker 1: I don't any recounts or anything like that. I think 1636 01:24:51,920 --> 01:24:53,160 Speaker 1: they want to have an active votes. So we're going 1637 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:55,080 Speaker 1: to take that gyms they did. They say they're they're 1638 01:24:55,120 --> 01:24:57,200 Speaker 1: selling us. They officially took it away. I guess we 1639 01:24:57,240 --> 01:24:58,680 Speaker 1: don't have the graphics and the show we're not going 1640 01:24:58,720 --> 01:24:59,960 Speaker 1: to do. They're not gonna put it up there because 1641 01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:02,360 Speaker 1: I think they're having struck. They can't count backwards. Tell 1642 01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:04,360 Speaker 1: us they did more of this coming up, come on 1643 01:25:04,439 --> 01:25:06,559 Speaker 1: back one Bill's Live from One Bills Drive.

Who's the Bill's 1652 01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:42,920 Speaker 1: biggest rival currently? Give us a call eight oh three 1653 01:25:43,160 --> 01:25:46,080 Speaker 1: five fifty toll free one eight eight eight fifty two 1654 01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:50,080 Speaker 1: five fifty Steve, this is interesting. Came across this Tampa 1655 01:25:50,160 --> 01:25:53,360 Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers are gonna give away free tickets to their 1656 01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:56,599 Speaker 1: game this week against Carolina. Season ticket holders from Tampa 1657 01:25:56,640 --> 01:25:59,040 Speaker 1: Bay got notices they are eligible to receive two free 1658 01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:02,120 Speaker 1: tickets Sunday. They have until today to opt in a 1659 01:26:02,240 --> 01:26:04,800 Speaker 1: limited number of seats, so not all season ticket holders 1660 01:26:04,880 --> 01:26:07,040 Speaker 1: got the offer. Being done on a first come, first 1661 01:26:07,080 --> 01:26:09,800 Speaker 1: served basis the reason they're not selling seats, say at 1662 01:26:09,840 --> 01:26:14,040 Speaker 1: fifty thousand, four hundred last week against San Francisco. The 1663 01:26:14,080 --> 01:26:17,360 Speaker 1: Bucks won that game. The actual attendance accorded by recorded 1664 01:26:17,400 --> 01:26:19,960 Speaker 1: by the Tampa Sports Authority was closer to forty thousand, 1665 01:26:20,040 --> 01:26:23,519 Speaker 1: six hundred Raymond James Stadium and Tampa seats sixty six thousand. 1666 01:26:24,880 --> 01:26:27,439 Speaker 1: The Bucks deny that it's poor turnout. They say it's 1667 01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:29,639 Speaker 1: a gift for the holidays of those season ticket holders. 1668 01:26:29,920 --> 01:26:33,360 Speaker 1: The Bucks averaging fifty five thousand fans per home game 1669 01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:36,720 Speaker 1: this year. That in a way, I don't want to 1670 01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:39,360 Speaker 1: overstate this, alarm bells go off of my head when 1671 01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:42,720 Speaker 1: teams have to give away free tickets because of poor attendance, 1672 01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:45,400 Speaker 1: give them away to season ticket holders, their best customers. Obviously, 1673 01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:48,160 Speaker 1: I have to say I'm alarmed by that. I think 1674 01:26:48,439 --> 01:26:50,240 Speaker 1: that's not right. I don't know if that's a good precedent. 1675 01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:54,120 Speaker 1: Your thoughts plea when they're what I got to give 1676 01:26:54,160 --> 01:26:56,000 Speaker 1: them to their season ticket holders. Can you imagine giving 1677 01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:58,360 Speaker 1: them to just anybody and having a season ticket holders go, 1678 01:26:58,400 --> 01:27:02,519 Speaker 1: why'd have to pay for mine? Right? But to give 1679 01:27:02,560 --> 01:27:07,639 Speaker 1: The only reason it's smacks of something different is because 1680 01:27:07,720 --> 01:27:11,000 Speaker 1: it happened now in the middle of a season where 1681 01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:15,880 Speaker 1: they're struggling. If they would have said back in July, say, listen, 1682 01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:17,800 Speaker 1: when the holidays ruld around, we're gonna give some tickets 1683 01:27:17,840 --> 01:27:20,120 Speaker 1: back to our season ticket holders for their support and 1684 01:27:20,120 --> 01:27:21,960 Speaker 1: all that. Well, they didn't do it, then they did 1685 01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:26,040 Speaker 1: it now. Because they're averaging fifty five thousand people a game, 1686 01:27:26,439 --> 01:27:30,280 Speaker 1: that's only seven thousand. Last year they averaged fifty nine 1687 01:27:30,439 --> 01:27:35,120 Speaker 1: sixty thousand. Okay, well, yes, that's a pretty pretty significant drop. Yeah, 1688 01:27:35,120 --> 01:27:36,880 Speaker 1: and they're not good. We know that the bucks sound good. 1689 01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:39,680 Speaker 1: Here's what I think alarms me a little bit. And 1690 01:27:39,720 --> 01:27:42,479 Speaker 1: I'm not going crazy about this. There's always been talking 1691 01:27:42,479 --> 01:27:45,919 Speaker 1: in the NFL that it's the stadiums might become TV studios, 1692 01:27:46,160 --> 01:27:47,960 Speaker 1: that the game is set up for TV, whether it's 1693 01:27:48,280 --> 01:27:50,880 Speaker 1: you know, primetime TV or just Sunday. I mean the 1694 01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:54,519 Speaker 1: game the financial base of the game is network television revenue. 1695 01:27:54,840 --> 01:27:57,320 Speaker 1: And this to me kind of smacks of um. You 1696 01:27:57,400 --> 01:27:59,639 Speaker 1: know how if you've got a game show in Hollywood, 1697 01:27:59,680 --> 01:28:02,200 Speaker 1: you give a free studio audience, the audience you'd like 1698 01:28:02,240 --> 01:28:05,120 Speaker 1: free tickets to come in and watch Jeopardy send sending 1699 01:28:05,160 --> 01:28:07,080 Speaker 1: a cardio. This is a little bit of a step 1700 01:28:07,160 --> 01:28:09,400 Speaker 1: in that direction, just a little tiny step, but it's 1701 01:28:09,400 --> 01:28:10,760 Speaker 1: a little alarming to me. It's just to make the 1702 01:28:10,800 --> 01:28:13,640 Speaker 1: game look better on television. Yeah, yeah, you're part of 1703 01:28:13,640 --> 01:28:15,519 Speaker 1: the show. You're part of the TV show. I don't know, though, 1704 01:28:15,520 --> 01:28:19,280 Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of bad stadium looks, Miami Dolphins 1705 01:28:19,320 --> 01:28:21,200 Speaker 1: being one of them, some games down there where that 1706 01:28:21,240 --> 01:28:26,000 Speaker 1: place was an empty yeah, you know, comparatively speaking, And 1707 01:28:26,160 --> 01:28:28,880 Speaker 1: it's uh, and it happens once a while around this, 1708 01:28:29,160 --> 01:28:30,840 Speaker 1: you know, and for here in Buffalo, I mean, who 1709 01:28:30,880 --> 01:28:32,479 Speaker 1: knows it better than the Bills fan base. I mean, 1710 01:28:32,720 --> 01:28:34,439 Speaker 1: they used to have an eighty thousand, two hundred and 1711 01:28:34,479 --> 01:28:37,720 Speaker 1: fifty seats stadium here and over the years it's dropped down. 1712 01:28:37,760 --> 01:28:39,920 Speaker 1: Now it's about seventy seventy three. Is still one of 1713 01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:43,040 Speaker 1: the bigger stadiums in the league. And you know, you 1714 01:28:43,120 --> 01:28:44,960 Speaker 1: get down in the midst of a bad season around 1715 01:28:45,040 --> 01:28:47,800 Speaker 1: Christmas time. Yeah, there are some empty seats sometimes, but 1716 01:28:48,200 --> 01:28:50,880 Speaker 1: the fan support has always been consistently really good here 1717 01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:53,360 Speaker 1: in Buffalo and even and so I but I do 1718 01:28:53,520 --> 01:28:55,840 Speaker 1: get it. There are times are the year Christmas being 1719 01:28:55,880 --> 01:28:58,439 Speaker 1: one of them where people, you know what, I'm spending 1720 01:28:58,479 --> 01:29:00,640 Speaker 1: my money someplace else this time. They were also the 1721 01:29:00,680 --> 01:29:03,479 Speaker 1: Bucks said to be concerned with the opposing teams fans 1722 01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:07,160 Speaker 1: um coming into their stadium. The Steelers Monday Night Football 1723 01:29:07,160 --> 01:29:09,000 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. I didn't know. Listen, in 1724 01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:12,559 Speaker 1: recent years, the Bucks began to revoke season ticket holders 1725 01:29:12,640 --> 01:29:16,880 Speaker 1: memberships if they continue to sell their tickets. Came on, 1726 01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:22,920 Speaker 1: and that's crazy, that's crazy talk to me. Plus, you're 1727 01:29:23,080 --> 01:29:26,240 Speaker 1: telling me that the ownership group doesn't want those tickets 1728 01:29:26,360 --> 01:29:29,960 Speaker 1: whether non no know who they're for. I know and listen. 1729 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:32,280 Speaker 1: The Steelers franchise, and I'll tip my hat to them. 1730 01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:35,559 Speaker 1: They travel better than any franchise in the National Football 1731 01:29:35,600 --> 01:29:37,400 Speaker 1: You always have. However, since the seventies when they were 1732 01:29:37,400 --> 01:29:39,680 Speaker 1: winning all those Super Bowls, their fans go on the 1733 01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:42,519 Speaker 1: road and show up in stadiums big time Bill's fans 1734 01:29:42,600 --> 01:29:44,559 Speaker 1: have seen it here in Buffalo and the occasion when 1735 01:29:44,600 --> 01:29:46,559 Speaker 1: you play them, I've seen him when I've covered them 1736 01:29:46,640 --> 01:29:51,519 Speaker 1: on the road. The Steelers fan base travels consistently. And 1737 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:56,720 Speaker 1: I come on, like Tampa Bay's gonna get insulted by 1738 01:29:56,760 --> 01:29:58,639 Speaker 1: the fact that they've got another fan base and wants 1739 01:29:58,680 --> 01:30:00,479 Speaker 1: to see their team on the road. Come on, that's 1740 01:30:00,520 --> 01:30:04,880 Speaker 1: crazy talk. That's that's it. That's marketing, that's pr that's 1741 01:30:04,920 --> 01:30:09,200 Speaker 1: not truth. What you don't think they revoke I'm telling you, 1742 01:30:09,360 --> 01:30:12,720 Speaker 1: I'm reading this item from ESPN. In recent years, the 1743 01:30:12,760 --> 01:30:16,080 Speaker 1: Bucks began to revoke season ticket holders memberships if fans 1744 01:30:16,160 --> 01:30:19,479 Speaker 1: continue to sell their tickets to opposing teams. Fan here's 1745 01:30:19,479 --> 01:30:21,760 Speaker 1: the thing. Now, you know there's ticket brokers out there, 1746 01:30:21,800 --> 01:30:24,800 Speaker 1: guys who buy blocks of twenty. Maybe they revoke those. 1747 01:30:26,360 --> 01:30:28,080 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I mean, you're talking about 1748 01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:30,000 Speaker 1: a guy who buys two tickets, he's gone, he's gonna 1749 01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:32,040 Speaker 1: They're not gonna revoke his. But those those places that 1750 01:30:32,200 --> 01:30:35,479 Speaker 1: buy like a block of fifty seasons in news, I 1751 01:30:35,520 --> 01:30:39,600 Speaker 1: think it's contrived a little bit. Yeah, why would it 1752 01:30:39,640 --> 01:30:42,960 Speaker 1: be contrived because they're trying to make the Tampa Bay 1753 01:30:42,960 --> 01:30:45,360 Speaker 1: Buccaneers seem like they're really competitive at the top of 1754 01:30:45,439 --> 01:30:48,000 Speaker 1: their organization, like they want it more than anybody. They 1755 01:30:48,040 --> 01:30:50,559 Speaker 1: want to support their guys more than other teams would. 1756 01:30:50,640 --> 01:30:52,559 Speaker 1: In fact, they don't even sell tickets to people who 1757 01:30:52,600 --> 01:30:55,559 Speaker 1: don't cheer for their team. Come on, give me a break, Okay, 1758 01:30:55,800 --> 01:30:57,760 Speaker 1: I'm just telling you what I'm reading here. I know, 1759 01:30:57,880 --> 01:30:59,519 Speaker 1: and I'm telling you how they're spinning it to make 1760 01:30:59,560 --> 01:31:01,840 Speaker 1: you think spending it the people who wrote the article 1761 01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:07,320 Speaker 1: the Table of Bay Buccaneers espy. Come on, Jenna Lane, ESPN, 1762 01:31:07,600 --> 01:31:10,880 Speaker 1: she's spinning it is that what you're saying? Yeah, why, 1763 01:31:12,120 --> 01:31:14,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe maybe her boyfriend works for the Buccaneers. 1764 01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:17,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm telling your Let me just put 1765 01:31:17,720 --> 01:31:20,519 Speaker 1: my little tin foil hat on. I'm put where is it? 1766 01:31:20,600 --> 01:31:23,640 Speaker 1: Give me my tinfoil hat, because it's a conspiration. You 1767 01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:26,720 Speaker 1: can't tell me that the Buccaneers front office is so 1768 01:31:27,520 --> 01:31:30,880 Speaker 1: averse to having one a bunch of fans from other teams, 1769 01:31:31,040 --> 01:31:33,479 Speaker 1: like one other team, the Pittsburgh Steelers or any other team, 1770 01:31:33,600 --> 01:31:36,120 Speaker 1: they're still averse to having other fans in their stadium 1771 01:31:36,240 --> 01:31:38,800 Speaker 1: that they're gonna revoke season tickets because they don't want 1772 01:31:38,840 --> 01:31:42,280 Speaker 1: the money. Seriously, I'm telling you what I read on 1773 01:31:42,400 --> 01:31:44,760 Speaker 1: an ESPN story, which I have no reason to doubt. 1774 01:31:44,800 --> 01:31:48,120 Speaker 1: It's voracity. I assume it's true. I'm giving you the 1775 01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:52,320 Speaker 1: reason of doubt. It's veracity because Jenna Lane's boyfriend works 1776 01:31:52,360 --> 01:31:55,400 Speaker 1: for a Buck. Now I was being I was exaggerating 1777 01:31:55,439 --> 01:31:57,760 Speaker 1: to make a point. There's no way the come on, 1778 01:31:58,920 --> 01:32:02,080 Speaker 1: come on, the Bucks are no more competitive at the 1779 01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:04,439 Speaker 1: top end of their franchise than any other thing. They're 1780 01:32:04,479 --> 01:32:10,000 Speaker 1: not revoking seat. They're not revoking Bob. And you know 1781 01:32:10,920 --> 01:32:14,160 Speaker 1: Bill and Barb and their little their season tickets they've 1782 01:32:14,200 --> 01:32:15,920 Speaker 1: had for thirty years and they can't go to the 1783 01:32:15,920 --> 01:32:18,880 Speaker 1: Steelers game, so they sold them. Might be true, might 1784 01:32:18,960 --> 01:32:21,479 Speaker 1: be false. It's reporting there. Maybe maybe there's an epidemic 1785 01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:24,240 Speaker 1: down there. They've got like all these thousands upon thousands 1786 01:32:24,280 --> 01:32:26,559 Speaker 1: of people who only buy season tickets so they can 1787 01:32:26,600 --> 01:32:29,640 Speaker 1: sell them. I'm sure there's an enormous a market for 1788 01:32:30,240 --> 01:32:32,880 Speaker 1: home games in Tampa Bay. Tom I was telling you 1789 01:32:32,960 --> 01:32:35,240 Speaker 1: what I read.

See 1854 01:35:43,439 --> 01:35:45,519 Speaker 1: they didn't take that other vote down. I think there's 1855 01:35:45,520 --> 01:35:48,280 Speaker 1: a descript I think that the conversation you guys are 1856 01:35:48,320 --> 01:35:50,719 Speaker 1: having is you got to go by the age bracket. 1857 01:35:50,840 --> 01:35:53,720 Speaker 1: You had to take by age group of people. And 1858 01:35:53,960 --> 01:36:00,000 Speaker 1: we grew up, grew up what No, we grew up 1859 01:36:00,320 --> 01:36:03,479 Speaker 1: watching the Dolphins beat the Bill. Yeah, for ten years. 1860 01:36:03,840 --> 01:36:07,120 Speaker 1: You guys mentioned it earlier, and that's why there's a 1861 01:36:07,280 --> 01:36:10,479 Speaker 1: big patreod toward him, and we call them our arrivals. Yeah, 1862 01:36:10,640 --> 01:36:12,639 Speaker 1: I'm here in Florida. Yeah, I mentioned it a little 1863 01:36:12,640 --> 01:36:14,680 Speaker 1: bit of a while ago, Dave. Where it kind of 1864 01:36:14,760 --> 01:36:16,640 Speaker 1: is you can see the percentages on the question on 1865 01:36:16,720 --> 01:36:20,519 Speaker 1: Twitter where it's kind of you know Twitter, you kind 1866 01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:22,800 Speaker 1: of perceive social media's being for the younger crowd. The 1867 01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:25,519 Speaker 1: younger crowd thinks it's the Patriots. They they hate the 1868 01:36:25,640 --> 01:36:28,759 Speaker 1: Patriots because you know, they've watched their teams struggle against 1869 01:36:28,800 --> 01:36:30,960 Speaker 1: them for so long, mostly some of these people for 1870 01:36:31,040 --> 01:36:33,760 Speaker 1: the entire lives. So you kind of get the sense 1871 01:36:33,880 --> 01:36:36,840 Speaker 1: that all the young crowd, the young Bills fans who 1872 01:36:36,880 --> 01:36:39,200 Speaker 1: are just coming up through all this, who grew up 1873 01:36:39,280 --> 01:36:41,080 Speaker 1: during the drought all of that stuff, they kind of 1874 01:36:41,120 --> 01:36:43,360 Speaker 1: hate the Patriots. And then you get into the older 1875 01:36:43,400 --> 01:36:46,760 Speaker 1: crowd and they go back and they look at they 1876 01:36:46,840 --> 01:36:49,360 Speaker 1: look at the Miami Dolphins, and then there's always the 1877 01:36:49,600 --> 01:36:51,479 Speaker 1: you know, the Johnny come lately, the people who are 1878 01:36:51,479 --> 01:36:54,000 Speaker 1: of the moment and saying, listen, it's the Jaguars last year, 1879 01:36:54,120 --> 01:36:57,880 Speaker 1: this year, the Doug Marone thing. That Flinard Fournette is now, 1880 01:36:58,360 --> 01:37:01,720 Speaker 1: you know, the villain here. So there's a little bit 1881 01:37:01,760 --> 01:37:03,640 Speaker 1: of that as well. So you can see that I 1882 01:37:03,760 --> 01:37:06,120 Speaker 1: kind of agree with you, Dave the caller, that there 1883 01:37:06,280 --> 01:37:12,479 Speaker 1: is an age component too. You know, you're where when 1884 01:37:12,600 --> 01:37:14,519 Speaker 1: you grew up as a Bills fan as to which 1885 01:37:14,560 --> 01:37:17,080 Speaker 1: team you hate the most. I agree, and you know, 1886 01:37:17,360 --> 01:37:20,000 Speaker 1: I agree with that. I think most people of a 1887 01:37:20,080 --> 01:37:22,759 Speaker 1: certain age And would you make the line at anyone 1888 01:37:22,840 --> 01:37:26,160 Speaker 1: born before eighty I could grab that out of I 1889 01:37:26,320 --> 01:37:31,679 Speaker 1: was that was totally arbitrary, that number. But it's you know, yeah, 1890 01:37:31,760 --> 01:37:35,240 Speaker 1: that that puts some you know, sub forty, and that's 1891 01:37:35,320 --> 01:37:36,600 Speaker 1: kind of where they're at. You know a lot of 1892 01:37:36,640 --> 01:37:39,000 Speaker 1: them think that it's it's not the same team. It's 1893 01:37:39,120 --> 01:37:41,679 Speaker 1: the people who born before that might be eighty five, 1894 01:37:41,760 --> 01:37:44,000 Speaker 1: though I think of it. Who's the Bill's biggest rival? 1895 01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:46,479 Speaker 1: That's our Twitter poll. Let's check the results on Twitter 1896 01:37:46,560 --> 01:37:49,040 Speaker 1: as people chime in on Twitter, who do you think? 1897 01:37:49,080 --> 01:37:51,120 Speaker 1: Who do you like as the Bills biggest rival. They're 1898 01:37:51,120 --> 01:37:52,960 Speaker 1: getting set to play one of the candidates anyway, the 1899 01:37:53,040 --> 01:37:55,599 Speaker 1: Dolphins this week. But fifty three percent of you say 1900 01:37:55,720 --> 01:37:59,120 Speaker 1: the Patriots are currently the Bill's biggest rival. Twenty four 1901 01:37:59,160 --> 01:38:02,719 Speaker 1: percent of you say the Jaguars, sixteen percent say the Dolphins, 1902 01:38:02,800 --> 01:38:05,240 Speaker 1: seven percent say somebody else. And you kind of we 1903 01:38:05,400 --> 01:38:07,160 Speaker 1: we joked about it when Thurmon was here. Who do 1904 01:38:07,200 --> 01:38:10,360 Speaker 1: you think Patriots fans would consider New England's biggest rival? 1905 01:38:10,760 --> 01:38:14,559 Speaker 1: I would say probably Jets, I would know. I'd say 1906 01:38:14,560 --> 01:38:17,240 Speaker 1: they probably think it's like uh uh goes all the 1907 01:38:17,320 --> 01:38:21,479 Speaker 1: way back to Peyton Manning. Probably the the uh Colt Colts, 1908 01:38:23,520 --> 01:38:26,960 Speaker 1: And it might be for them, might be the Pittsburgh Steelers. Um, 1909 01:38:27,640 --> 01:38:29,479 Speaker 1: you know, they've met the Steelers a couple of times 1910 01:38:29,520 --> 01:38:33,080 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Maybe the Baltimore Ravens. They've met them 1911 01:38:33,120 --> 01:38:35,200 Speaker 1: in a couple of in a playoff games, you know, 1912 01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:37,840 Speaker 1: So I think yeah, for the Patriots, I think those 1913 01:38:37,880 --> 01:38:40,200 Speaker 1: it's those meaningful games. So they keep they keep kind 1914 01:38:40,240 --> 01:38:42,439 Speaker 1: of rotating through which team gets good and meets them 1915 01:38:42,479 --> 01:38:45,560 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Right, So you know, it's interesting to 1916 01:38:45,600 --> 01:38:49,160 Speaker 1: think about. We'll put that back out there to we 1917 01:38:49,240 --> 01:38:51,000 Speaker 1: get it. We'll get a beat writer from Boston. When 1918 01:38:51,040 --> 01:38:54,120 Speaker 1: we play at We'll find out on the tweet sheet. 1919 01:38:54,160 --> 01:38:56,559 Speaker 1: When we asked the question who's currently the Bill's biggest rival, 1920 01:38:56,760 --> 01:39:00,599 Speaker 1: Jason Crandell responds with some interesting thoughts. Who's the Bill's 1921 01:39:00,760 --> 01:39:04,960 Speaker 1: biggest rival currently? Jason Crandell says Patriots, mostly because I 1922 01:39:05,080 --> 01:39:08,080 Speaker 1: hate them more than any other team. History repeats itself. 1923 01:39:08,120 --> 01:39:10,240 Speaker 1: The same thing happened between the Dolphins and the Bills 1924 01:39:10,520 --> 01:39:13,280 Speaker 1: in the nineteen seventies and eighties is about to happen 1925 01:39:13,360 --> 01:39:15,320 Speaker 1: between the Patriots and the Bills. We are about to 1926 01:39:15,360 --> 01:39:19,600 Speaker 1: go on a long winning streak against them. Okay, you 1927 01:39:19,720 --> 01:39:22,200 Speaker 1: know it can start any time, it would like, you know, 1928 01:39:23,200 --> 01:39:25,479 Speaker 1: what are you waiting for? I'm just trying to remember. 1929 01:39:25,600 --> 01:39:28,760 Speaker 1: And again, I was younger. I wasn't a kid, really, 1930 01:39:28,760 --> 01:39:30,320 Speaker 1: I guess I was a kid in the seventies when 1931 01:39:30,360 --> 01:39:33,760 Speaker 1: the Yeah, it was, when that twenty game Dolphins win 1932 01:39:33,840 --> 01:39:36,040 Speaker 1: streak over the Bills was going on. Did I consider 1933 01:39:36,080 --> 01:39:39,360 Speaker 1: them the biggest right formative years? Yea, as my wonder years. 1934 01:39:40,560 --> 01:39:42,120 Speaker 1: I guess I did think of them as the biggest 1935 01:39:42,160 --> 01:39:44,960 Speaker 1: right it was. It was because back then, in the seventies, 1936 01:39:45,000 --> 01:39:48,320 Speaker 1: the Dolphins were still a relatively new franchise three four 1937 01:39:48,400 --> 01:39:50,880 Speaker 1: years old, and I remember thinking early on, like, what 1938 01:39:50,960 --> 01:39:53,479 Speaker 1: the heck is this new team in Miami is going 1939 01:39:53,520 --> 01:39:56,080 Speaker 1: to beat us every year twice a year. And as 1940 01:39:56,120 --> 01:39:58,040 Speaker 1: the decade went on, it was like, yeah, it's the Dolphins. 1941 01:39:58,200 --> 01:40:00,519 Speaker 1: The Bills don't beat the Dolphins. I mean, it was 1942 01:40:00,520 --> 01:40:02,479 Speaker 1: a long stretch. It was ten years. I went to 1943 01:40:02,560 --> 01:40:04,360 Speaker 1: the game. Now the Bills beating him in nineteen eighty. 1944 01:40:04,680 --> 01:40:07,280 Speaker 1: I went to the game in nineteen seventy nine season opener. 1945 01:40:07,280 --> 01:40:09,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna look it up, you know what? Yeah, with 1946 01:40:09,400 --> 01:40:12,000 Speaker 1: a wide right with Tom Dempsey. Tom Dempsey. Yeah, how 1947 01:40:12,040 --> 01:40:14,040 Speaker 1: do you know that? Listen? I had guys that were 1948 01:40:14,080 --> 01:40:16,000 Speaker 1: on that team that I played with that five years 1949 01:40:16,120 --> 01:40:18,880 Speaker 1: later in eighty six, six years later, eighty six, and 1950 01:40:19,120 --> 01:40:22,599 Speaker 1: they were still talking about it. Opener Bills and Dolphins, 1951 01:40:22,640 --> 01:40:24,840 Speaker 1: September two in nineteen seventy nine. I want to hear 1952 01:40:24,880 --> 01:40:26,800 Speaker 1: my quick story about that. Let's hear. I'm at the game. 1953 01:40:28,400 --> 01:40:30,599 Speaker 1: I think I was. I was. I was in school, 1954 01:40:30,680 --> 01:40:33,200 Speaker 1: still college, law school, and I'm at the game with 1955 01:40:33,320 --> 01:40:35,640 Speaker 1: my buddy, who is a basketball coach, John bee Line, right, 1956 01:40:35,680 --> 01:40:37,439 Speaker 1: and I had season tickets. I bought season tickets, and 1957 01:40:37,479 --> 01:40:41,160 Speaker 1: we were sitting almost even Bill's bench side, even with 1958 01:40:41,280 --> 01:40:43,200 Speaker 1: the goal posts. So if you look straight ahead, you see, 1959 01:40:43,560 --> 01:40:46,880 Speaker 1: you know, upright upright, all right. So imagine Tom Dempsey 1960 01:40:46,920 --> 01:40:48,800 Speaker 1: goes out there to win the game and the streak 1961 01:40:48,920 --> 01:40:51,000 Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy nine, now it was a nine years streak, 1962 01:40:51,040 --> 01:40:54,160 Speaker 1: opening day, beautiful day. The kick goes up. You couldn't 1963 01:40:54,200 --> 01:40:56,680 Speaker 1: tell if it was good. Myself and my buddy Bee 1964 01:40:56,680 --> 01:40:59,360 Speaker 1: Line are like, yeah, the streak is over. And then 1965 01:40:59,400 --> 01:41:01,720 Speaker 1: you look at the you know, you couldn't tell if 1966 01:41:01,720 --> 01:41:06,439 Speaker 1: it was wrong. Yeah, that was it was. It was. 1967 01:41:06,840 --> 01:41:08,840 Speaker 1: It was amazing. It was like, oh they beat him, 1968 01:41:08,840 --> 01:41:11,000 Speaker 1: Oh no, they didn't. Last play listen And for what 1969 01:41:11,080 --> 01:41:12,720 Speaker 1: I heard from the players on the team said, they 1970 01:41:12,760 --> 01:41:14,800 Speaker 1: did everything right. I mean, they managed the clock, they 1971 01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:16,360 Speaker 1: got down their last play of the game. They even 1972 01:41:16,479 --> 01:41:18,200 Speaker 1: got it on the hash mark they wanted to in 1973 01:41:18,200 --> 01:41:20,439 Speaker 1: the middle of the field. They knelt down here and 1974 01:41:20,479 --> 01:41:21,760 Speaker 1: it was a chip shot. I mean, I guess it 1975 01:41:21,800 --> 01:41:23,680 Speaker 1: was a short one, right thirties maybe right, It was 1976 01:41:23,760 --> 01:41:25,160 Speaker 1: like not that, so it is, and he kicks it 1977 01:41:25,280 --> 01:41:27,880 Speaker 1: and that's the shot he had it, Tom Dempsey when 1978 01:41:27,880 --> 01:41:29,680 Speaker 1: he kicks it and he grabs his helmet with both 1979 01:41:29,760 --> 01:41:33,760 Speaker 1: hands and Ben's back over and well one hand. Anyway, Yeah, 1980 01:41:33,920 --> 01:41:37,880 Speaker 1: it was. That was but still when you asked me, 1981 01:41:38,520 --> 01:41:40,600 Speaker 1: I still feel that one again. Think about it. And 1982 01:41:40,720 --> 01:41:44,640 Speaker 1: during the eighty or seventies, the Dolphins were the Patriots. 1983 01:41:45,040 --> 01:41:47,400 Speaker 1: They were the team that went undefeated and won the 1984 01:41:47,439 --> 01:41:49,240 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. They went to two straight Super Bowls and 1985 01:41:49,280 --> 01:41:50,760 Speaker 1: one him got to the third one and then got 1986 01:41:50,800 --> 01:41:54,879 Speaker 1: beat So they were they were a dynasty. So everybody 1987 01:41:54,960 --> 01:41:57,760 Speaker 1: had the target on the on the Dolphins, and and 1988 01:41:57,960 --> 01:41:59,839 Speaker 1: like a lot of people said, it was a rivalry 1989 01:42:00,080 --> 01:42:02,200 Speaker 1: worn out of the hatred for a team that was 1990 01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:04,640 Speaker 1: so successfully against your own team, which is why I 1991 01:42:04,720 --> 01:42:07,479 Speaker 1: think the percentages on our Twitter poll put the Patriots 1992 01:42:07,520 --> 01:42:09,760 Speaker 1: at the top of the list. Everybody hates those guys. 1993 01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:12,639 Speaker 1: Here's a call from John and Wheatfield on this question, 1994 01:42:12,680 --> 01:42:14,680 Speaker 1: who's the bills biggest rival? John? What do you think? 1995 01:42:14,720 --> 01:42:16,640 Speaker 1: What do you have? Well, well, I went to my 1996 01:42:16,720 --> 01:42:19,280 Speaker 1: first game in nineteen sixty five. My father took me 1997 01:42:19,400 --> 01:42:21,560 Speaker 1: in and the Bills are playing the Chargers, and the 1998 01:42:21,640 --> 01:42:23,280 Speaker 1: Bills were seven and all at the time, and they 1999 01:42:23,320 --> 01:42:25,479 Speaker 1: lost to the Charges at home, thirty four to three. 2000 01:42:25,960 --> 01:42:28,080 Speaker 1: And what I used to since following the Bills. During 2001 01:42:28,120 --> 01:42:30,120 Speaker 1: that time, before the Miami came in the league, I 2002 01:42:30,240 --> 01:42:32,320 Speaker 1: used to think the Bill's biggest rival was the Jets, 2003 01:42:32,400 --> 01:42:36,040 Speaker 1: and I didn't consider the Bills Bills a Miami rivalry 2004 01:42:36,200 --> 01:42:38,880 Speaker 1: until the Kelly Marino air when they started going back 2005 01:42:38,880 --> 01:42:41,479 Speaker 1: and forth, because I think when one team dominates the 2006 01:42:41,600 --> 01:42:44,320 Speaker 1: others at really a rivalry, it's more of a domination. 2007 01:42:44,760 --> 01:42:47,439 Speaker 1: So I don't even consider the Bills and the Patriots 2008 01:42:47,479 --> 01:42:49,360 Speaker 1: are robalty because the Bills aren't even in the game. 2009 01:42:49,800 --> 01:42:51,880 Speaker 1: So if they were going back and forth like Marino, 2010 01:42:52,960 --> 01:42:55,720 Speaker 1: Marino and Kelly were then in the eighties and the 2011 01:42:55,760 --> 01:42:58,400 Speaker 1: early nineties, I would consider that arrival be right now, 2012 01:42:58,800 --> 01:43:01,519 Speaker 1: I still consider maybe the Bills and the Bills in 2013 01:43:01,600 --> 01:43:03,679 Speaker 1: the Jets. They keep it close, But when one team 2014 01:43:03,720 --> 01:43:07,080 Speaker 1: dominates the other, I just consider this domination, not even arrivals. Well, 2015 01:43:07,120 --> 01:43:10,479 Speaker 1: there's no question that Jim Kelly versus Dan Marino, Don 2016 01:43:10,520 --> 01:43:14,040 Speaker 1: Shula versus Marv Levy it was a rivalry, and for 2017 01:43:14,400 --> 01:43:16,760 Speaker 1: good reason. Both those teams were really good. Both of 2018 01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:19,120 Speaker 1: them had aspirations to go to and win a Super Bowl, 2019 01:43:19,520 --> 01:43:21,479 Speaker 1: and they were in the same division and they played 2020 01:43:21,520 --> 01:43:24,519 Speaker 1: twice a year and the games were close, and there 2021 01:43:24,760 --> 01:43:27,920 Speaker 1: was some talking that went on back and forth. You 2022 01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:30,519 Speaker 1: remember a lot of people remember the Brian Cox incidents 2023 01:43:30,520 --> 01:43:34,519 Speaker 1: in those games. There was a lot of extracurriculus. And 2024 01:43:34,560 --> 01:43:36,840 Speaker 1: I know that when the Buffalo Bills finally got good 2025 01:43:36,960 --> 01:43:39,439 Speaker 1: under Marv Levy in the late eighties and nineteen eighty eight, 2026 01:43:39,520 --> 01:43:42,640 Speaker 1: when the Bills went well, eighty seven they split with 2027 01:43:42,720 --> 01:43:45,360 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, and eighty eight they probably I think we 2028 01:43:45,439 --> 01:43:48,599 Speaker 1: swept them. In eighty nine, Don Shula had made public 2029 01:43:48,640 --> 01:43:53,200 Speaker 1: pronouncements about getting back at the Buffalo Bills and saying, listen, 2030 01:43:53,240 --> 01:43:55,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna beat and we're gonna you're gon, We're gonna 2031 01:43:55,040 --> 01:43:57,520 Speaker 1: beat him on special teams. We're gonna do all this yigniac. 2032 01:43:58,000 --> 01:44:00,640 Speaker 1: And that was the eighty nine opening game seasons when 2033 01:44:00,720 --> 01:44:02,800 Speaker 1: Jim Kelly tucked the ball and the last play the 2034 01:44:02,840 --> 01:44:05,680 Speaker 1: game and bowled into the end zone for a t 2035 01:44:05,840 --> 01:44:07,439 Speaker 1: D And that's when it was on. You know, it 2036 01:44:07,560 --> 01:44:10,559 Speaker 1: was on for everybody. So I believe Shula's last game 2037 01:44:11,000 --> 01:44:13,000 Speaker 1: was a playoff game in Yeah, and I got a 2038 01:44:13,040 --> 01:44:15,840 Speaker 1: TD in that game, did you really? Yeah? Excellent? So 2039 01:44:16,320 --> 01:44:18,360 Speaker 1: I can't I can't see how a team can call 2040 01:44:18,439 --> 01:44:21,240 Speaker 1: another team of rivalry when they're beating the pants off you. Ever, 2041 01:44:21,439 --> 01:44:23,479 Speaker 1: you know, as much as the pages I have done 2042 01:44:23,520 --> 01:44:25,400 Speaker 1: for the build, I mean like I would consider like 2043 01:44:25,720 --> 01:44:28,760 Speaker 1: like maybe the Cowboys and the Redskins rivalry, or the 2044 01:44:28,840 --> 01:44:32,519 Speaker 1: Giants at Philadelphia rivalry, but not when one team totally 2045 01:44:32,640 --> 01:44:34,840 Speaker 1: dominates another team. I got you. You make a good point. 2046 01:44:35,000 --> 01:44:37,599 Speaker 1: Thanks very much for calling, John Murphy, Steve Tasker.

Um, so yeah, 2116 01:47:53,760 --> 01:47:56,200 Speaker 1: it's it's it's a special one. I'll definitely remember this 2117 01:47:56,280 --> 01:47:59,919 Speaker 1: one for sure, Josh. It was an incredible run. Decided 2118 01:48:00,040 --> 01:48:02,599 Speaker 1: you're gonna get in no matter what. Take me through 2119 01:48:02,600 --> 01:48:04,400 Speaker 1: it if you don't mind, because there was a run, 2120 01:48:04,640 --> 01:48:10,479 Speaker 1: and then there was and then let you especially want 2121 01:48:10,479 --> 01:48:13,160 Speaker 1: to hear about the flex. Yeah, so you know I 2122 01:48:13,240 --> 01:48:15,840 Speaker 1: went over to coach Dabele and coach McDermott, and we 2123 01:48:15,880 --> 01:48:17,400 Speaker 1: were talking about which play we wanted to call, and 2124 01:48:17,439 --> 01:48:20,240 Speaker 1: we wanted to call a QB run um you know 2125 01:48:20,360 --> 01:48:22,920 Speaker 1: in Dabie McDermott, you know, they thought that the QB 2126 01:48:23,080 --> 01:48:25,280 Speaker 1: draw was the best one we had. Uh. You know, 2127 01:48:25,400 --> 01:48:28,080 Speaker 1: I looked out. We had a fake little dummy signal 2128 01:48:28,160 --> 01:48:30,599 Speaker 1: to try to get that mic move into his right um. 2129 01:48:30,920 --> 01:48:32,800 Speaker 1: You know, that d N kind of fell off and 2130 01:48:32,920 --> 01:48:34,560 Speaker 1: I was able to use my left arm there and 2131 01:48:35,200 --> 01:48:36,880 Speaker 1: you know I met forty four at the goal line 2132 01:48:36,880 --> 01:48:38,519 Speaker 1: and I was able to just kind of fall fall 2133 01:48:38,600 --> 01:48:41,360 Speaker 1: into it. I'll get to the flex and then the flex. 2134 01:48:41,400 --> 01:48:43,400 Speaker 1: Obviously I felt a little strong after that, you know, 2135 01:48:43,600 --> 01:48:46,960 Speaker 1: the stiff arm and everything. So, uh, you know, I 2136 01:48:47,080 --> 01:48:49,200 Speaker 1: played with a lot of personality, and you know, I 2137 01:48:49,240 --> 01:48:51,200 Speaker 1: got to get my teammates involved and that was pretty 2138 01:48:51,200 --> 01:48:53,720 Speaker 1: awesome and the crowd was going crazy. Yeah you could. 2139 01:48:53,920 --> 01:48:55,720 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you this while you were running that 2140 01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:57,639 Speaker 1: and I listened to this a couple of different times 2141 01:48:57,720 --> 01:49:01,519 Speaker 1: when you stiff armed in Gockway. The crowd roared huge, 2142 01:49:01,760 --> 01:49:05,040 Speaker 1: and then when you sidestep Telvin Smith it roared again, 2143 01:49:05,160 --> 01:49:07,040 Speaker 1: and then of course when you bowled your way in it, 2144 01:49:07,200 --> 01:49:09,200 Speaker 1: there was like three roars in that, and of course 2145 01:49:09,240 --> 01:49:11,920 Speaker 1: the third one was the roof came off the entire joint. 2146 01:49:11,960 --> 01:49:15,599 Speaker 1: Could you feel that, Oh, absolutely absolutely, And that happened 2147 01:49:15,680 --> 01:49:17,960 Speaker 1: right after really the block or the missfield goal, and 2148 01:49:18,040 --> 01:49:20,200 Speaker 1: after we kind of turned that momentum around three plays 2149 01:49:20,280 --> 01:49:23,080 Speaker 1: later we were down. Obviously the quarter ran out, but 2150 01:49:23,600 --> 01:49:25,840 Speaker 1: that's when we got together and you know, just the 2151 01:49:26,040 --> 01:49:28,680 Speaker 1: energy that the crowd brought that game was unbelievable and 2152 01:49:28,760 --> 01:49:30,720 Speaker 1: it was just exhilarated on this play a little more. 2153 01:49:30,800 --> 01:49:32,679 Speaker 1: And Jess, I think Kyle Brand wanted to know about 2154 01:49:32,680 --> 01:49:35,080 Speaker 1: the celebration right with Shady tell us about that, what's 2155 01:49:35,080 --> 01:49:37,200 Speaker 1: the origin of that? That's something we've been working on. 2156 01:49:37,920 --> 01:49:39,960 Speaker 1: After the Jets game, you know, he had a couple 2157 01:49:39,960 --> 01:49:42,760 Speaker 1: of touchdowns and I was really bad on the first one. 2158 01:49:42,880 --> 01:49:45,760 Speaker 1: I was way too early on the celebration. It looked 2159 01:49:45,800 --> 01:49:48,120 Speaker 1: real bad, and so we worked on it and we 2160 01:49:48,200 --> 01:49:50,639 Speaker 1: got a little time in between it now and we'll 2161 01:49:50,720 --> 01:49:53,920 Speaker 1: probably add something every week or so. Kyle tell me 2162 01:49:54,080 --> 01:49:55,560 Speaker 1: is he the first quarterback to win it? Did you 2163 01:49:55,560 --> 01:49:58,439 Speaker 1: have other quarterbacks when the Angry Runs, you know, early 2164 01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:01,200 Speaker 1: early in the season, Matt ryding on it, but he 2165 01:50:01,360 --> 01:50:03,720 Speaker 1: did not get the trophy because we weren't handing out 2166 01:50:03,800 --> 01:50:06,400 Speaker 1: trophies yet. So Josh is the first trophy. And let 2167 01:50:06,439 --> 01:50:09,000 Speaker 1: me say this, he's got I'm a huge Graniteors. I 2168 01:50:09,200 --> 01:50:10,920 Speaker 1: love the way you play. I think you're gonna get 2169 01:50:10,960 --> 01:50:12,720 Speaker 1: a lot of trophies in your career. I want you 2170 01:50:12,720 --> 01:50:14,400 Speaker 1: to take this. I want you to put it on 2171 01:50:14,479 --> 01:50:16,080 Speaker 1: the show. Next to that, I had a Hope Potato 2172 01:50:16,160 --> 01:50:20,040 Speaker 1: Bowl MVP and someday my friend a Lombardi Trophy. I 2173 01:50:20,080 --> 01:50:21,800 Speaker 1: believe in you, man, I'm really happy for you. Well, 2174 01:50:21,840 --> 01:50:23,760 Speaker 1: thank you so much. I really do appreciate that. Kyle, 2175 01:50:23,800 --> 01:50:26,280 Speaker 1: thanks for checking in. Good any time, guys. Kyle Brand, 2176 01:50:26,360 --> 01:50:28,760 Speaker 1: host of Good Morning Football on NFL Network, who just 2177 01:50:29,320 --> 01:50:32,080 Speaker 1: awarded Josh Shannon with the Angry Runs Trophy for this 2178 01:50:32,200 --> 01:50:35,240 Speaker 1: past week. You could win it again. You're gonna have 2179 01:50:35,280 --> 01:50:37,439 Speaker 1: to run eleven times every game to win it? And 2180 01:50:37,479 --> 01:50:39,040 Speaker 1: are you up for running it that much on a 2181 01:50:39,080 --> 01:50:41,320 Speaker 1: week to week bas whatever helps us get a w 2182 01:50:41,880 --> 01:50:45,519 Speaker 1: obviously about being smart and protecting myself, but you know, 2183 01:50:45,560 --> 01:50:47,680 Speaker 1: whenever my numbers called, to do anything to help the 2184 01:50:47,720 --> 01:50:49,280 Speaker 1: team is what I'm gonna do. You gotta know, though, 2185 01:50:49,280 --> 01:50:50,920 Speaker 1: and I found this out late in my career and 2186 01:50:50,960 --> 01:50:52,880 Speaker 1: you're finding out in your first year. I really carry 2187 01:50:52,920 --> 01:50:55,639 Speaker 1: the ball very much early in my career. When you're 2188 01:50:55,680 --> 01:50:57,840 Speaker 1: holding the ball in live action football, it kind of 2189 01:50:57,920 --> 01:51:01,519 Speaker 1: tends to attract violence. Yeah, it does. You notice that, right, 2190 01:51:02,080 --> 01:51:05,280 Speaker 1: So listen, I know you wear every pad you're supposed to. 2191 01:51:05,520 --> 01:51:09,639 Speaker 1: You ain't got enough pads to last fifteen years running 2192 01:51:09,720 --> 01:51:13,120 Speaker 1: for you know, sixteen times a game. Correct, you know 2193 01:51:14,800 --> 01:51:19,280 Speaker 1: you can, I mean you can't. Get listen, treat me 2194 01:51:19,320 --> 01:51:20,920 Speaker 1: like your grandpa's son. I want you to take care 2195 01:51:20,920 --> 01:51:22,400 Speaker 1: of yourself and just you know, make sure that you 2196 01:51:22,520 --> 01:51:25,000 Speaker 1: can line up every week, sir, because like in college, 2197 01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:27,560 Speaker 1: it's good to be academically eligible, it's good to be 2198 01:51:27,840 --> 01:51:31,120 Speaker 1: physically available. So it's good. But you did run. You 2199 01:51:31,200 --> 01:51:33,720 Speaker 1: ran it really well. The forty seven yard run that 2200 01:51:33,800 --> 01:51:36,479 Speaker 1: you made, which really put your numbers up, like made 2201 01:51:36,520 --> 01:51:38,040 Speaker 1: it look like you ran every time you had the 2202 01:51:38,080 --> 01:51:39,960 Speaker 1: ball in your hand. That was that was something that 2203 01:51:40,120 --> 01:51:42,639 Speaker 1: wasn't called No, it was not. It was a pass 2204 01:51:42,720 --> 01:51:44,920 Speaker 1: play and I got off to my first reading. My 2205 01:51:44,960 --> 01:51:47,840 Speaker 1: second reading, UM felt the pocket collapse a little bit 2206 01:51:47,840 --> 01:51:50,200 Speaker 1: and they brought too off the edge. Logan Thomas did 2207 01:51:50,200 --> 01:51:51,960 Speaker 1: a good job of just kind of pushing them both 2208 01:51:52,040 --> 01:51:54,479 Speaker 1: out there and laying open up our offensive blinding and 2209 01:51:54,560 --> 01:51:56,760 Speaker 1: a great job. We got some blocks down field. UM 2210 01:51:57,439 --> 01:51:59,200 Speaker 1: probably should have went out of bounds right here instead 2211 01:51:59,200 --> 01:52:01,280 Speaker 1: of taking another hit, but we got there eventually after 2212 01:52:01,320 --> 01:52:04,280 Speaker 1: you got taken. The thing that got me what Telvin Smith? 2213 01:52:04,360 --> 01:52:08,040 Speaker 1: And they got Telvin Smith and Miles Jack the Jacksonville 2214 01:52:08,120 --> 01:52:10,640 Speaker 1: Jaguars defense. Those two guys are as fast to linebackers 2215 01:52:10,680 --> 01:52:12,679 Speaker 1: they are on the league. And on that run, Telvin 2216 01:52:12,720 --> 01:52:15,479 Speaker 1: Smith took a bad angle. I mean you outran the 2217 01:52:15,560 --> 01:52:19,559 Speaker 1: angle on him, and I think that really says something 2218 01:52:19,600 --> 01:52:22,640 Speaker 1: about you know, you're catching guys by surprise, I think 2219 01:52:22,720 --> 01:52:24,840 Speaker 1: with your speed and your athleticism. Yeah, I hope, so 2220 01:52:24,920 --> 01:52:27,120 Speaker 1: hopefully you don't catch on. Yeah, You're not going to 2221 01:52:27,160 --> 01:52:29,560 Speaker 1: surprise him forever, but for the time being, hey use it. 2222 01:52:29,920 --> 01:52:32,400 Speaker 1: Absolutely big win though, right, I mean it was it 2223 01:52:32,479 --> 01:52:34,760 Speaker 1: was huge for our team. Um, this is when we wanted. 2224 01:52:34,800 --> 01:52:37,000 Speaker 1: Obviously we met them in the in the playoffs last year. 2225 01:52:38,000 --> 01:52:40,000 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it's a rivalry, but you know, there's 2226 01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:42,280 Speaker 1: a lot of motion in that game, and like I said, 2227 01:52:42,320 --> 01:52:44,519 Speaker 1: the crowd brought it. We came up, we stepped up 2228 01:52:44,520 --> 01:52:46,240 Speaker 1: to the play as a as a team, and we 2229 01:52:46,280 --> 01:52:49,960 Speaker 1: played good, complimentary football. One more question about running. I wondered, um, 2230 01:52:50,720 --> 01:52:53,240 Speaker 1: do you anticipate based on your performance last Sunday that 2231 01:52:53,360 --> 01:52:55,360 Speaker 1: future opponents might be looking for that, like maybe they 2232 01:52:55,439 --> 01:52:57,720 Speaker 1: even assigned a spy to you. You've actually seen some 2233 01:52:57,800 --> 01:52:59,360 Speaker 1: of that already this year, right, Yeah. I mean if 2234 01:52:59,360 --> 01:53:01,439 Speaker 1: they do that, if they decide not to you know, 2235 01:53:01,560 --> 01:53:03,880 Speaker 1: really go split safety and they keep someone on me, 2236 01:53:04,000 --> 01:53:06,360 Speaker 1: that that's just gonna open up something in the passing game. 2237 01:53:06,439 --> 01:53:10,040 Speaker 1: So um, you know there there, you really can't guard everything. 2238 01:53:10,160 --> 01:53:13,600 Speaker 1: It's a deference. You're gonna have weak points. And um, Jacksonville, 2239 01:53:13,800 --> 01:53:16,040 Speaker 1: you know they decided to to you know, match three 2240 01:53:16,080 --> 01:53:17,400 Speaker 1: with the mic and left the middle of the field 2241 01:53:17,439 --> 01:53:19,599 Speaker 1: open a little bit, and you know, I just found out, 2242 01:53:19,760 --> 01:53:21,560 Speaker 1: you know, there's time to take advantage of it, and 2243 01:53:21,600 --> 01:53:24,160 Speaker 1: we did a good job of doing that. So everybody 2244 01:53:24,240 --> 01:53:26,160 Speaker 1: the big question runs like, you know, they want to 2245 01:53:26,240 --> 01:53:28,519 Speaker 1: see how you know much you develop, how much better 2246 01:53:28,560 --> 01:53:30,680 Speaker 1: you're playing, How do you feel when you're back there. 2247 01:53:30,840 --> 01:53:33,280 Speaker 1: What's the big difference when you're back there in your 2248 01:53:33,320 --> 01:53:36,320 Speaker 1: own mind? What's bet getting better and better for you? 2249 01:53:36,720 --> 01:53:39,000 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously still allow to improve on. Um, there's 2250 01:53:39,000 --> 01:53:40,600 Speaker 1: a few throws that you know got away from you 2251 01:53:40,680 --> 01:53:42,640 Speaker 1: that game, but I feel like I'm seeing it a 2252 01:53:42,720 --> 01:53:44,800 Speaker 1: lot better and helping the help with you know, Da 2253 01:53:44,960 --> 01:53:46,600 Speaker 1: and Matt and the things that they did on the 2254 01:53:46,640 --> 01:53:49,160 Speaker 1: field and getting through their reads quickly, finding their answers 2255 01:53:49,680 --> 01:53:51,160 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, getting the ball out and just 2256 01:53:51,360 --> 01:53:53,639 Speaker 1: on time. Um, you know I've been doing a better 2257 01:53:53,720 --> 01:53:56,519 Speaker 1: job of that. You know, Um, we had zero sacks 2258 01:53:56,600 --> 01:53:59,080 Speaker 1: this last game, and that that starts deal line. But 2259 01:53:59,439 --> 01:54:00,920 Speaker 1: you know Da and Matt and helped me through that, 2260 01:54:01,040 --> 01:54:03,360 Speaker 1: you know, just as far as timing and routes, getting 2261 01:54:03,360 --> 01:54:05,839 Speaker 1: the ball out quickly, and like I said, finding answers 2262 01:54:05,880 --> 01:54:08,479 Speaker 1: when answers are needed. So yeah, I owed them a 2263 01:54:08,520 --> 01:54:10,479 Speaker 1: lot of credit too. And I found myself, Josh, during 2264 01:54:10,520 --> 01:54:14,200 Speaker 1: your four game stint on the sideline watching you during 2265 01:54:14,240 --> 01:54:15,880 Speaker 1: games sometimes and it seemed like you had a pretty 2266 01:54:15,920 --> 01:54:18,160 Speaker 1: regular routine. Play would come in, you would look at 2267 01:54:18,200 --> 01:54:20,880 Speaker 1: your wristband, you would watch the play charted, And I 2268 01:54:20,920 --> 01:54:22,600 Speaker 1: asked Brian dabb about it a week ago and he 2269 01:54:22,680 --> 01:54:24,639 Speaker 1: said it was all pretty structured. He said, in fact, 2270 01:54:24,640 --> 01:54:27,040 Speaker 1: he would talk to you during games about what was happening, 2271 01:54:27,120 --> 01:54:29,400 Speaker 1: the plays going in and yeah, charting everything, how many 2272 01:54:29,560 --> 01:54:32,480 Speaker 1: touches people were getting. If it was a big play, 2273 01:54:32,560 --> 01:54:35,960 Speaker 1: we can get back to it. I'm watching the corners 2274 01:54:35,960 --> 01:54:37,600 Speaker 1: to see if we can maybe get a double move 2275 01:54:37,680 --> 01:54:40,600 Speaker 1: on someone. So yeah, that's just part of football and 2276 01:54:40,760 --> 01:54:43,640 Speaker 1: part of the progression. I think sometimes. You know, that 2277 01:54:43,680 --> 01:54:46,000 Speaker 1: was necessary for me to sit with Da and get 2278 01:54:46,040 --> 01:54:47,920 Speaker 1: to see how Matt would do it, and like I said, 2279 01:54:48,000 --> 01:54:49,560 Speaker 1: chart all the plays and kind of run through the 2280 01:54:49,600 --> 01:54:51,840 Speaker 1: plane in my mind before it actually happened. Somebody said, 2281 01:54:51,920 --> 01:54:54,560 Speaker 1: during practice you would almost mimic the footwork, right, you're 2282 01:54:54,600 --> 01:54:56,280 Speaker 1: staying behind the play and mimic the four work. What 2283 01:54:56,320 --> 01:54:58,120 Speaker 1: did you get out of that? I mean, just staying 2284 01:54:58,160 --> 01:55:00,480 Speaker 1: in a mental reps and then you get to do 2285 01:55:00,560 --> 01:55:02,280 Speaker 1: the mental reps and match along with your feet and 2286 01:55:02,880 --> 01:55:05,520 Speaker 1: in turn, you know, when I got back on the field, 2287 01:55:05,640 --> 01:55:08,320 Speaker 1: obviously it wasn't sore from doing all the drops, but 2288 01:55:08,440 --> 01:55:10,240 Speaker 1: you know, my feet we're still in tune. So that 2289 01:55:10,360 --> 01:55:13,640 Speaker 1: was big. So you're playing they played that Jacksonville Jaguars 2290 01:55:13,760 --> 01:55:15,560 Speaker 1: last week got the They had the number four defense 2291 01:55:15,600 --> 01:55:18,040 Speaker 1: overall the NFL. They were salty bunch out, they were 2292 01:55:18,120 --> 01:55:20,200 Speaker 1: good defense. Now this one you're playing this week, the 2293 01:55:20,280 --> 01:55:23,840 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins, a division game, a team that you've this 2294 01:55:23,960 --> 01:55:25,880 Speaker 1: team plays a lot, you haven't played a many. This 2295 01:55:25,960 --> 01:55:29,320 Speaker 1: is your first time. But it's also the twenty ninth 2296 01:55:29,400 --> 01:55:32,280 Speaker 1: ranked defense in the league. So do you feel an 2297 01:55:32,320 --> 01:55:33,800 Speaker 1: extra And I don't want to say, hey, this is 2298 01:55:33,840 --> 01:55:35,120 Speaker 1: gonna be a great week, is we're gonna do it, 2299 01:55:35,120 --> 01:55:37,440 Speaker 1: But it's almost an extra sense of pressure that in 2300 01:55:37,560 --> 01:55:39,920 Speaker 1: that this is a place where you got to take 2301 01:55:39,960 --> 01:55:43,560 Speaker 1: advantage of a defense that's struggling. I mean, yeah, it 2302 01:55:43,600 --> 01:55:46,360 Speaker 1: comes down to that. Obviously, it's whoever pence more points 2303 01:55:46,360 --> 01:55:48,240 Speaker 1: on the board than the other. We're looking to win 2304 01:55:48,280 --> 01:55:51,720 Speaker 1: a football game. Um, you know, whether it's with seven 2305 01:55:51,760 --> 01:55:54,200 Speaker 1: points or thirty points, whatever it takes. Um, you know, 2306 01:55:54,280 --> 01:55:55,920 Speaker 1: this is still a good defense. I don't care what 2307 01:55:56,000 --> 01:55:58,600 Speaker 1: anybody says. They're coached by a really good coach, and 2308 01:55:59,440 --> 01:56:00,680 Speaker 1: you know they've been in this thing for a while. 2309 01:56:00,760 --> 01:56:02,360 Speaker 1: They're five and six now, they're still in the hunt. 2310 01:56:02,400 --> 01:56:03,920 Speaker 1: They want to win this one too. They're four and 2311 01:56:03,960 --> 01:56:06,880 Speaker 1: one at home. So I mean, we we got a 2312 01:56:06,880 --> 01:56:08,320 Speaker 1: lot of work to do on them. Still watching a 2313 01:56:08,400 --> 01:56:10,680 Speaker 1: lot of film. Um. You know, Coach Dabel's gonna have 2314 01:56:10,680 --> 01:56:12,720 Speaker 1: a game plan ready for us, and you know, trusting 2315 01:56:12,760 --> 01:56:14,400 Speaker 1: in what he calls, and we got to go out 2316 01:56:14,400 --> 01:56:16,720 Speaker 1: the next few with Bill's quarterback Josh Allen. Um, I 2317 01:56:16,840 --> 01:56:19,720 Speaker 1: wonder as you as you look at this game and 2318 01:56:19,800 --> 01:56:23,120 Speaker 1: look at what's left this season. I thought this last Sunday, 2319 01:56:23,440 --> 01:56:25,520 Speaker 1: you came back to kind of a different lineup than 2320 01:56:25,640 --> 01:56:28,160 Speaker 1: you left, especially in some of the skill positions, especially 2321 01:56:28,600 --> 01:56:30,800 Speaker 1: in terms of the speed and younger players. It's a 2322 01:56:30,840 --> 01:56:32,640 Speaker 1: different lineup than the one you left back in Houston. 2323 01:56:32,720 --> 01:56:34,920 Speaker 1: Kind Of all right, it is, um. You know, I 2324 01:56:35,000 --> 01:56:38,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't say we've switched much of what we're doing, um, 2325 01:56:38,880 --> 01:56:40,920 Speaker 1: but we're trying to use our tools appropriately. You know. 2326 01:56:41,000 --> 01:56:43,840 Speaker 1: Coach Babel's done a good job of adjusting and we're 2327 01:56:43,840 --> 01:56:45,960 Speaker 1: just trying to find, you know, matchups and you know, 2328 01:56:46,040 --> 01:56:47,840 Speaker 1: just trying to run the ball and execute and go 2329 01:56:47,920 --> 01:56:50,120 Speaker 1: out there and just move the ball and put points 2330 01:56:50,120 --> 01:56:51,360 Speaker 1: on the board. In the last couple of weeks, you've 2331 01:56:51,400 --> 01:56:53,360 Speaker 1: seen that. Yeah. One of the things about having different 2332 01:56:53,360 --> 01:56:55,520 Speaker 1: guys on the fields there they have different skill sets, 2333 01:56:55,600 --> 01:56:58,680 Speaker 1: which opens up different parts of the same playbook that 2334 01:56:58,720 --> 01:57:00,760 Speaker 1: you've been using. It makes you look for different things 2335 01:57:00,800 --> 01:57:04,080 Speaker 1: in the passing game. Has that been like noticeable for 2336 01:57:04,160 --> 01:57:06,600 Speaker 1: you when you're dropping backer in practice, when you're dropping back, 2337 01:57:06,880 --> 01:57:09,840 Speaker 1: you see the guys doing different things, and it gives 2338 01:57:09,840 --> 01:57:12,040 Speaker 1: you the ideas maybe to put different things in the 2339 01:57:12,240 --> 01:57:15,160 Speaker 1: game plan. Yeah, you know, And like I said, coach 2340 01:57:15,200 --> 01:57:17,280 Speaker 1: Dable does a great job of game planning. And it's 2341 01:57:17,320 --> 01:57:19,480 Speaker 1: literally just trying to find out what what our guys are, 2342 01:57:20,000 --> 01:57:22,360 Speaker 1: you know, first good art and what they can do. Um, 2343 01:57:22,400 --> 01:57:24,280 Speaker 1: so we're trying to put them in positions where they 2344 01:57:24,360 --> 01:57:28,320 Speaker 1: can be successful. Um in turn help this offense be successful. So, um, 2345 01:57:28,920 --> 01:57:30,400 Speaker 1: you know, we got a good thing going right now. 2346 01:57:30,440 --> 01:57:33,120 Speaker 1: We got to keep on working hard, continue to execute 2347 01:57:33,120 --> 01:57:35,480 Speaker 1: when we step on the field, Um, you know, protect 2348 01:57:35,480 --> 01:57:37,760 Speaker 1: the football, play good, complimentary football. You know, our defense 2349 01:57:37,920 --> 01:57:40,120 Speaker 1: is we've been playing outstanding, you know, and they've kept 2350 01:57:40,200 --> 01:57:42,160 Speaker 1: us in some games this year, and um, you know, 2351 01:57:42,200 --> 01:57:44,240 Speaker 1: they're getting the job done. At the same time, they're 2352 01:57:44,240 --> 01:57:47,560 Speaker 1: going against a good you know, Miami offense, and you 2353 01:57:47,600 --> 01:57:49,800 Speaker 1: know it's gonna be a good game. I definitely think that, 2354 01:57:49,920 --> 01:57:52,320 Speaker 1: and um, we just gotta go out there and play together. Josh, 2355 01:57:52,360 --> 01:57:54,440 Speaker 1: you're talking about matchups. You understand you had a ping 2356 01:57:54,520 --> 01:57:57,080 Speaker 1: pong matchup with Hitty yard Row that maybe didn't go 2357 01:57:57,160 --> 01:57:59,240 Speaker 1: the way you wanted it to. You're you're giving me 2358 01:57:59,280 --> 01:58:03,320 Speaker 1: the stink. I hear like I thought. Next question, did 2359 01:58:03,480 --> 01:58:08,480 Speaker 1: Yarborough beat you? Look at here we so some of this. 2360 01:58:08,560 --> 01:58:11,360 Speaker 1: We got a little footage of it. So this is listen. 2361 01:58:11,600 --> 01:58:13,720 Speaker 1: And first of all, I'm gonna answer that question. It's 2362 01:58:13,720 --> 01:58:15,280 Speaker 1: not me. I'm not the best ping pound player in 2363 01:58:15,280 --> 01:58:17,320 Speaker 1: the locker room. Neither is Eddie, so don't give him 2364 01:58:17,360 --> 01:58:20,440 Speaker 1: as much credit as he deserves. Um or neither once 2365 01:58:20,520 --> 01:58:23,520 Speaker 1: whatever it is. Um, there's some good players in there though. 2366 01:58:23,560 --> 01:58:26,640 Speaker 1: Pat DeMarco one, you know, Kyle is probably the best 2367 01:58:26,720 --> 01:58:29,480 Speaker 1: that we got in there, and there's some good players. 2368 01:58:29,600 --> 01:58:31,680 Speaker 1: I'm not to that level. Here's the thing that here's 2369 01:58:31,720 --> 01:58:33,800 Speaker 1: the thing a lot of people don't know about. First 2370 01:58:33,840 --> 01:58:36,560 Speaker 1: of all, there's a ping pong table every so often 2371 01:58:36,640 --> 01:58:39,680 Speaker 1: in the in the locker room. But no matter what 2372 01:58:39,800 --> 01:58:41,560 Speaker 1: it is, when you're an NFL locker room he probably 2373 01:58:41,600 --> 01:58:45,000 Speaker 1: you know this too. Even though you're rookie. Everything is 2374 01:58:45,000 --> 01:58:48,160 Speaker 1: a competition. No, absolutely, Like I mean, things that you 2375 01:58:48,240 --> 01:58:51,160 Speaker 1: never thought like bawling up your tape, throwing or all 2376 01:58:51,200 --> 01:58:53,680 Speaker 1: that stuff becomes a competition. And when they put anything 2377 01:58:53,760 --> 01:58:55,640 Speaker 1: that is of a competitive like a ping pong table 2378 01:58:55,720 --> 01:58:58,960 Speaker 1: or a dark board or what have you, a cornhole, yeah, 2379 01:58:59,040 --> 01:59:01,720 Speaker 1: you set up. I mean, is it's a death match? 2380 01:59:02,040 --> 01:59:05,640 Speaker 1: It is, you know, And that's the nature that we're 2381 01:59:05,640 --> 01:59:08,600 Speaker 1: trying to build here is a super competitive um type 2382 01:59:08,640 --> 01:59:10,600 Speaker 1: of culture. And I think that just kind of adds it. 2383 01:59:10,640 --> 01:59:12,760 Speaker 1: And you know, Coach McDermott loves it, loves it because 2384 01:59:12,800 --> 01:59:15,240 Speaker 1: it does add that competitive edge. You know, Guys, after 2385 01:59:15,320 --> 01:59:16,800 Speaker 1: they get done compete on the field, they come in 2386 01:59:16,880 --> 01:59:18,320 Speaker 1: locker room, they're like, all right, let's strap it on 2387 01:59:18,360 --> 01:59:21,600 Speaker 1: again and start playing ping pong. And I guess he did. 2388 01:59:21,640 --> 01:59:23,840 Speaker 1: There's some battles in that. You compete all the time 2389 01:59:24,040 --> 01:59:27,360 Speaker 1: every day. Hey, we've been talking to fans and caller 2390 01:59:27,440 --> 01:59:30,360 Speaker 1: city about Bill's rivals. Who's the biggest Bill's rival?

Welcome back to the show. 2409 02:00:30,280 --> 02:00:32,880 Speaker 1: One Bill's Live from One Bill's Drive. John Murphy, Steve Tasker. 2410 02:00:32,960 --> 02:00:35,760 Speaker 1: It's good talking to Josh Allen. He always impressed with 2411 02:00:35,840 --> 02:00:39,440 Speaker 1: his approach, Steve, his demeanor and his um. Look. Yes, 2412 02:00:39,600 --> 02:00:41,000 Speaker 1: part of the game is saying the right thing, but 2413 02:00:41,120 --> 02:00:43,080 Speaker 1: I think it goes beyond that. I think he believes 2414 02:00:43,480 --> 02:00:44,920 Speaker 1: the right thing. He didn't just say it, you know 2415 02:00:44,920 --> 02:00:46,960 Speaker 1: what I mean, Yeah, I think in any sense, Yeah, 2416 02:00:47,040 --> 02:00:50,839 Speaker 1: I you know, I know. It's it's kind of cliche 2417 02:00:51,320 --> 02:00:54,480 Speaker 1: and buffalo here to compare every great quarterback to Jim 2418 02:00:54,600 --> 02:00:56,960 Speaker 1: Kelly and say that's the guy we're looking for in Yadia. 2419 02:00:57,160 --> 02:00:58,760 Speaker 1: The one thing that I done that he does that 2420 02:00:58,880 --> 02:01:01,920 Speaker 1: reminds me of guy of Jim is that when he 2421 02:01:02,040 --> 02:01:05,720 Speaker 1: was out there, When he's out there, he'd like other 2422 02:01:05,840 --> 02:01:08,200 Speaker 1: quarterbacks kind of you can tell they're thinking about stuff, 2423 02:01:08,200 --> 02:01:10,320 Speaker 1: they're thinking about big picture stuff, they're all, you know, 2424 02:01:10,400 --> 02:01:14,400 Speaker 1: they're kind of above it all in certain ways that 2425 02:01:14,680 --> 02:01:16,960 Speaker 1: Jim never was like that. And Josh seems to be listening. 2426 02:01:16,960 --> 02:01:18,360 Speaker 1: I don't care what's going on. I want to win 2427 02:01:18,440 --> 02:01:20,800 Speaker 1: this play. Yeah, you know, I'm gonna try and win 2428 02:01:20,880 --> 02:01:23,040 Speaker 1: this play. I'm gonna do whatever it takes, and whether 2429 02:01:23,040 --> 02:01:24,560 Speaker 1: I have to tuck it and run or make some 2430 02:01:24,800 --> 02:01:27,440 Speaker 1: impossible throw whatever, I'm going to compete right here, right now, 2431 02:01:27,560 --> 02:01:30,120 Speaker 1: Let's win this one. And that was a little like that, 2432 02:01:30,360 --> 02:01:33,800 Speaker 1: Like Jim, you see all these some other quarterbacks who 2433 02:01:33,840 --> 02:01:36,000 Speaker 1: are you know, just they just want to play quarterback. 2434 02:01:36,240 --> 02:01:39,080 Speaker 1: That their mindset is different. Yeah, And I don't know 2435 02:01:39,120 --> 02:01:41,640 Speaker 1: if I if I'm articulating exactly what I mean, but 2436 02:01:41,720 --> 02:01:43,800 Speaker 1: there is I think a little bit of that that 2437 02:01:44,080 --> 02:01:46,600 Speaker 1: I just want to win. Yeah, you know in him, 2438 02:01:46,640 --> 02:01:48,960 Speaker 1: And that's that's what personabout Jim when you say that. 2439 02:01:49,000 --> 02:01:51,040 Speaker 1: And I've been trying to articulate this for months now 2440 02:01:51,120 --> 02:01:53,720 Speaker 1: about Josh Allen about the most impressive thing to me 2441 02:01:53,880 --> 02:01:56,560 Speaker 1: so far, and he's pretty impressive overall, but the most 2442 02:01:56,600 --> 02:02:00,280 Speaker 1: impressive thing about him so far is its competitiveness. I've 2443 02:02:00,280 --> 02:02:02,120 Speaker 1: said that to you probably a dozen times this week, 2444 02:02:02,480 --> 02:02:05,560 Speaker 1: this competitive fire, and I think you just articulated exactly 2445 02:02:05,680 --> 02:02:08,160 Speaker 1: how it's a play by plaything for him. It's every 2446 02:02:08,200 --> 02:02:10,320 Speaker 1: play he wants to win, he wants you said, See 2447 02:02:10,400 --> 02:02:12,040 Speaker 1: the look he gave me when I mentioned about the 2448 02:02:12,040 --> 02:02:16,240 Speaker 1: ping pong He's ready, Oh we're gonna talk about me. 2449 02:02:18,280 --> 02:02:20,880 Speaker 1: He was ta bro for beating him in pak ball, 2450 02:02:21,360 --> 02:02:24,600 Speaker 1: And uh yeah, I like that. I do too. I 2451 02:02:24,720 --> 02:02:26,800 Speaker 1: may think I think it's a it's an enormous plus form. 2452 02:02:26,840 --> 02:02:28,920 Speaker 1: And I don't know, maybe you know, maybe I'm reading 2453 02:02:28,960 --> 02:02:31,000 Speaker 1: too much into it, but I do see it in 2454 02:02:31,080 --> 02:02:33,280 Speaker 1: his play, and I think it's an I think it's 2455 02:02:33,280 --> 02:02:35,560 Speaker 1: a great quality for him to exhibit for, you know, 2456 02:02:35,800 --> 02:02:39,800 Speaker 1: for a football team. I've said this to people that 2457 02:02:39,840 --> 02:02:41,280 Speaker 1: I've spoken to. I don't know if I've ever said 2458 02:02:41,320 --> 02:02:43,640 Speaker 1: it on the show before, but football is about moment 2459 02:02:43,680 --> 02:02:45,840 Speaker 1: to moment, winning each and every moment. You know you win, 2460 02:02:46,240 --> 02:02:48,920 Speaker 1: you win this little you win this release. You know 2461 02:02:49,000 --> 02:02:50,480 Speaker 1: you win this release. And I'm gonna try and run 2462 02:02:50,560 --> 02:02:53,320 Speaker 1: my route after I win that release and and use 2463 02:02:53,440 --> 02:02:55,320 Speaker 1: that to my advantage. I'm gonna win this and then 2464 02:02:55,360 --> 02:02:56,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna win at the end. I'm gonna win the 2465 02:02:57,040 --> 02:02:59,040 Speaker 1: during the catch, I'm gonna battle for the catch, and 2466 02:02:59,080 --> 02:03:01,120 Speaker 1: then I'm gonna try and get lose. I'm gonna win 2467 02:03:01,200 --> 02:03:02,840 Speaker 1: that moment. At the end of it, I'm standing in 2468 02:03:02,880 --> 02:03:04,320 Speaker 1: the end zone with a ball in my hand. I 2469 02:03:04,360 --> 02:03:06,720 Speaker 1: got a touchdown because I won each and every moment. 2470 02:03:06,960 --> 02:03:08,760 Speaker 1: And that's what football is. You say, it's a week 2471 02:03:08,800 --> 02:03:11,160 Speaker 1: to week league, and in a big picture, that's how 2472 02:03:11,200 --> 02:03:13,200 Speaker 1: the sharpest. You got fifty three guys who are trying 2473 02:03:13,200 --> 02:03:15,080 Speaker 1: to do it week to week, and they're trying to 2474 02:03:15,120 --> 02:03:16,800 Speaker 1: do it practice to practice, and they're trying to do 2475 02:03:16,880 --> 02:03:19,520 Speaker 1: it rep to rep, you know, moment to moment, and 2476 02:03:19,640 --> 02:03:21,640 Speaker 1: that's you know. That's what I see. And when you 2477 02:03:21,720 --> 02:03:23,920 Speaker 1: want to win, you got to do it a little 2478 02:03:23,960 --> 02:03:26,000 Speaker 1: bit at a time. And that's I see a lot 2479 02:03:26,040 --> 02:03:28,440 Speaker 1: of that in Josh Bill's Dolphins Sunday. Are they the 2480 02:03:28,480 --> 02:03:31,840 Speaker 1: Bill's biggest rivals?

He's got a reason 2560 02:07:30,600 --> 02:07:32,720 Speaker 1: for it, and it's probably a pretty good winning If 2561 02:07:32,720 --> 02:07:34,600 Speaker 1: you want to change things in a town that has 2562 02:07:34,880 --> 02:07:40,240 Speaker 1: been you know, has never been very successful in a 2563 02:07:40,680 --> 02:07:42,920 Speaker 1: large scale way, and you want to change that culture, 2564 02:07:43,560 --> 02:07:44,960 Speaker 1: you know, you do what you think is right, and 2565 02:07:45,080 --> 02:07:47,520 Speaker 1: that's what Matt Patricia's doing. Yeah. Absolutely, that's true. He's 2566 02:07:47,600 --> 02:07:49,400 Speaker 1: right to do it, all right.

Bill's 2580 02:08:33,280 --> 02:08:35,839 Speaker 1: look to be taken an eye at the Jeremiah Searles, 2581 02:08:36,120 --> 02:08:38,480 Speaker 1: five year veterans signed to the roster in late September 2582 02:08:38,760 --> 02:08:41,720 Speaker 1: at that right card position many John Miller after Ryan 2583 02:08:41,760 --> 02:08:44,320 Speaker 1: Groy finished up the game this past Sunday. That'll be 2584 02:08:44,360 --> 02:08:46,520 Speaker 1: something to keep an eye on tomorrow. Yeah, all right, great, 2585 02:08:46,560 --> 02:08:48,520 Speaker 1: We're back with more One Bill's Live from One Bill's 2586 02:08:48,600 --> 02:09:05,760 Speaker 1: Drive and this is Buffalo Bill's Radio. What have we learned? 2587 02:09:05,800 --> 02:09:09,240 Speaker 1: Presented by Advanced Alarmed providing Western York's homes and businesses 2588 02:09:09,680 --> 02:09:12,320 Speaker 1: with the finance and security in home theater. He preferred 2589 02:09:12,360 --> 02:09:15,000 Speaker 1: Alarment home theater provider of the Buffalo Bills. Thurman Thomas 2590 02:09:15,080 --> 02:09:16,600 Speaker 1: Hall of famer. Have you heard of him? He was 2591 02:09:16,680 --> 02:09:18,480 Speaker 1: on the show with us today. We asked him the 2592 02:09:18,560 --> 02:09:20,960 Speaker 1: question today he was currently the Bill's biggest rival. Here's 2593 02:09:20,960 --> 02:09:24,320 Speaker 1: what Thurman had to say. I think if you're looking 2594 02:09:24,360 --> 02:09:27,120 Speaker 1: at right there, I think it's in Jacksonville Jaguar. I 2595 02:09:27,240 --> 02:09:29,600 Speaker 1: think with Jalen Ramsey saying what he said last year, 2596 02:09:29,920 --> 02:09:33,040 Speaker 1: Johshon Allen, the playoff game last year, the scuffle of 2597 02:09:33,120 --> 02:09:36,160 Speaker 1: this year. Hey, you know what, Let's put these teams 2598 02:09:36,520 --> 02:09:40,040 Speaker 1: on the schedule every single year. Yeah, here on out yea. Yeah. 2599 02:09:40,080 --> 02:09:41,800 Speaker 1: I think that's what you have to do if you're 2600 02:09:41,880 --> 02:09:46,360 Speaker 1: looking at a rivalry, because you know, like Pittsburgh and Baltimore, 2601 02:09:46,480 --> 02:09:48,720 Speaker 1: you know that's a heat, a rivalry. We don't have that. 2602 02:09:48,800 --> 02:09:51,560 Speaker 1: We've lost that with the Dolphins. And I can't say 2603 02:09:51,600 --> 02:09:54,320 Speaker 1: it's even a rivalry with the Patriot because they beat 2604 02:09:54,400 --> 02:09:58,880 Speaker 1: us what twenties seven out of thirty times. I ain't 2605 02:09:58,880 --> 02:10:00,560 Speaker 1: think about what Thurman said that. The problem with that 2606 02:10:00,680 --> 02:10:02,320 Speaker 1: is the Jaguars is gonna be playing home games in 2607 02:10:02,400 --> 02:10:06,760 Speaker 1: London in the near future. Hard to hard to have 2608 02:10:06,840 --> 02:10:08,920 Speaker 1: a rivalry with a team that puts tarps over their seats, 2609 02:10:08,960 --> 02:10:12,800 Speaker 1: exactly that idea. Also on the show today, Armando Sugaro 2610 02:10:13,000 --> 02:10:15,680 Speaker 1: from The Miami Harold, longtime beat reporter, down there covers 2611 02:10:15,720 --> 02:10:18,400 Speaker 1: the NFL and the Dolphins. He was asked the question, 2612 02:10:18,440 --> 02:10:20,920 Speaker 1: what do the Bills have with their four wins that 2613 02:10:20,960 --> 02:10:23,880 Speaker 1: the Dolphins lack with their five wins. Here's here's his answer. 2614 02:10:25,880 --> 02:10:29,120 Speaker 1: The Bills have something that the Dolphins don't in that 2615 02:10:30,280 --> 02:10:33,280 Speaker 1: they've got the hope that a quarterback that they picked 2616 02:10:33,360 --> 02:10:39,080 Speaker 1: this year will develop into something great the next Jim 2617 02:10:39,200 --> 02:10:41,840 Speaker 1: Kelly maybe, and I know that's that's been a lot, uh, 2618 02:10:42,560 --> 02:10:46,400 Speaker 1: somebody that will head and be the face of the 2619 02:10:46,560 --> 02:10:49,880 Speaker 1: franchise and be a guy that other teams will go, 2620 02:10:50,080 --> 02:10:54,480 Speaker 1: oh crap, we got to play him this week. The 2621 02:10:54,600 --> 02:10:57,520 Speaker 1: Dolphins don't have that. The Dolphins have a thirty year 2622 02:10:57,560 --> 02:11:00,280 Speaker 1: old guy that they're still trying to make a decision on. Yeah, 2623 02:11:01,040 --> 02:11:04,560 Speaker 1: the Bills have hope. We do have hope. Hope is 2624 02:11:04,600 --> 02:11:07,480 Speaker 1: a good thing. Maybe the best thing. Name that movie 2625 02:11:07,640 --> 02:11:12,400 Speaker 1: success is better? Never mind, what is that movie? Shank Oh? 2626 02:11:12,560 --> 02:11:15,240 Speaker 1: Is it? Yeah? There you go. Hey. Steve, as we 2627 02:11:15,320 --> 02:11:18,720 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, spoke to the Bills in their morning meeting 2628 02:11:18,760 --> 02:11:21,160 Speaker 1: today about the nature of the Bills Dolphins rivalry, the 2629 02:11:21,240 --> 02:11:24,120 Speaker 1: history of the Bills Dolphins rivalry, and you let your group, 2630 02:11:24,240 --> 02:11:26,640 Speaker 1: your core group, the five president five presidents know that. 2631 02:11:26,720 --> 02:11:29,120 Speaker 1: And you got some interesting responses, right. You asked, Hey, 2632 02:11:29,160 --> 02:11:32,080 Speaker 1: what would you tell these guys about the Bills Dolphins rivalry? Right, yeah, 2633 02:11:32,480 --> 02:11:34,800 Speaker 1: Thurman Chia and I did this early before I went 2634 02:11:34,840 --> 02:11:36,680 Speaker 1: over to the stadium and spoke to the team. I 2635 02:11:36,720 --> 02:11:38,160 Speaker 1: did it early, put it out there early to them, 2636 02:11:38,200 --> 02:11:39,720 Speaker 1: and Thurman got back to me and said, hey, how 2637 02:11:39,760 --> 02:11:42,040 Speaker 1: they beat the Bills twenty in a row. But the 2638 02:11:42,160 --> 02:11:45,040 Speaker 1: hatred was through the fans and it made us that 2639 02:11:45,200 --> 02:11:49,960 Speaker 1: players want to beat the heck out of them. It 2640 02:11:50,040 --> 02:11:51,800 Speaker 1: doesn't sound like you said. He didn't say heck, I 2641 02:11:51,920 --> 02:11:54,600 Speaker 1: didn't do that quick. He said he wanted us, wanted 2642 02:11:54,880 --> 02:11:56,960 Speaker 1: us to beat the heck out of him. Bruce Smith, 2643 02:11:57,280 --> 02:11:59,600 Speaker 1: Bruce Chiming, And he said, hey, was Paradise versus the 2644 02:11:59,640 --> 02:12:03,480 Speaker 1: snow Belt. It was Kelly and Marv versus Marino and Shula. 2645 02:12:03,960 --> 02:12:06,960 Speaker 1: They didn't want to play in Buffalo. We loved playing 2646 02:12:07,000 --> 02:12:09,720 Speaker 1: in Miami. It was the competition of the best teams 2647 02:12:09,720 --> 02:12:12,120 Speaker 1: in the AFC. That was Bruce Smith. That's a good one. Yeah, 2648 02:12:12,320 --> 02:12:14,440 Speaker 1: he's right, and it was it was that's a rivalry 2649 02:12:14,520 --> 02:12:16,360 Speaker 1: right there. And you relay that to the current Bills 2650 02:12:16,720 --> 02:12:20,520 Speaker 1: and then Darryl Tallet also said, Darryl, this is typical DT. 2651 02:12:21,320 --> 02:12:23,280 Speaker 1: They start fast, but they don't know how to finish. 2652 02:12:23,360 --> 02:12:26,160 Speaker 1: If you take the fight to them, you will win perfect. 2653 02:12:26,400 --> 02:12:28,880 Speaker 1: That's Daryl Tallet. It's great and that's you know, that's 2654 02:12:28,920 --> 02:12:31,240 Speaker 1: what those guys you know, they still carry you carry 2655 02:12:31,280 --> 02:12:33,640 Speaker 1: it with you. You know the rivalry, and you know 2656 02:12:33,720 --> 02:12:35,920 Speaker 1: it doesn't wasn't like he didn't respect those guys. In fact, 2657 02:12:35,960 --> 02:12:37,720 Speaker 1: a lot of us. You know, Marino's a friend of 2658 02:12:37,760 --> 02:12:39,480 Speaker 1: mine and Jim, Jim and Dan are real close. We 2659 02:12:39,560 --> 02:12:43,360 Speaker 1: know that, Bruce too, so but you know, when you 2660 02:12:43,440 --> 02:12:46,960 Speaker 1: think back to it, it was really it was really 2661 02:12:47,040 --> 02:12:48,680 Speaker 1: important to you to win those games, and it was 2662 02:12:48,720 --> 02:12:50,240 Speaker 1: fun being a part of him. I was gonna say, 2663 02:12:50,240 --> 02:12:51,720 Speaker 1: we didn't have time to ask Josh. I was gonna 2664 02:12:51,720 --> 02:12:53,400 Speaker 1: say to him, and he's never been through this, but 2665 02:12:53,440 --> 02:12:57,080 Speaker 1: I was thinking, it feels like there's a lot at 2666 02:12:57,120 --> 02:12:59,080 Speaker 1: stake for the Bills down the stretch here five games 2667 02:12:59,160 --> 02:13:02,040 Speaker 1: left right, You could argue that, and you could argue 2668 02:13:02,120 --> 02:13:04,320 Speaker 1: convincingly that they are out of playoff contention. And yet 2669 02:13:04,680 --> 02:13:06,360 Speaker 1: when you sit with Josh for some of the other players, 2670 02:13:06,400 --> 02:13:08,000 Speaker 1: we've talked to her in the coaching stuff. You feel 2671 02:13:08,040 --> 02:13:10,800 Speaker 1: like there's a lot writing on these final five games. 2672 02:13:10,840 --> 02:13:13,720 Speaker 1: I feel that, Yeah, even for I think sitting here 2673 02:13:13,760 --> 02:13:16,320 Speaker 1: looking at it like that, I think we need to 2674 02:13:16,520 --> 02:13:20,320 Speaker 1: look good. We need to look better and better. We 2675 02:13:20,440 --> 02:13:25,680 Speaker 1: need to play good to validate this trip that we're 2676 02:13:25,720 --> 02:13:28,520 Speaker 1: all on together. That's you know, I want to look 2677 02:13:28,560 --> 02:13:31,360 Speaker 1: good doing it, and that's I think it's important.
