It 4 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 2: is another toasty, toasty day out there, as we experienced 5 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: out at Bill's practice this morning. The sun is shining, 6 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 2: the heat index is climbing, and you could feel that 7 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 2: bead of sweat run down the middle of your back. 8 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 2: As we were watching practice today. 9 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 1: My line today was it, you know, in comparison, I'm 10 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 1: pretty sure Hell feels air conditioned today. 11 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 2: Who's hot out there? 12 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: Is really hot and we weren't in pads and oh 13 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 1: so bad, so bad. But they are working hard. And 14 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: the way I'll say this, I've had this, We've had 15 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: this conversation on going through this training camp. They continue 16 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: to practice at a high level. They are running fast, 17 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: playing fast, working extremely hard with high energy and it's 18 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: and it's a testament to sports science and the way 19 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: they keep them hydrated and they keep them fresh and 20 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 1: they you know, so when they are out there, uh, 21 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: they are busting a gut to get better and you 22 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: can tell it's you've seen we've seen some progress. It's 23 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: a different group of guys out there than there was 24 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: a week, you know, five days into training camp. They 25 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: you can see the incremental changes and the differences the 26 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: Christmas of practice, the place, the plays are getting fired 27 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: off faster, everything you can tell. 28 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 2: One thing we should note is there were a couple 29 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,839 Speaker 2: of instances three in fact, where Sean McDermott stepped in 30 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 2: and stopped eleven on eleven work two. He clearly saw 31 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 2: a teaching moment to take advantage of, especially with some 32 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 2: young players, and made a point in doing that not once, 33 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 2: not twice, but three times today. What do you think 34 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 2: often prompts a coach to do that more than anything. 35 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: Well, it's not just about the guy who's correcting or 36 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: what he's seeing, it's about the whole thing. Two of 37 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: the three times I couldn't hear the first one it 38 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: get caught me off guard. And one of the things 39 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: that happened. They've always got this music going out there, 40 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: and if you've been to training camp, you know, because 41 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: they do that to mimic a stadium noise, you always 42 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: got you always got this den going on behind you 43 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: that you got to sift through and focus on. Yeah, 44 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: you gotta, you gotta focus on the concentration, Concentrate on 45 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: the communication that's being given to you, and that level 46 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 1: of contra concentration is a training method for doing it 47 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 1: in a game where you really hone in on what's 48 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: being said to you. And because of the din So 49 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: when McDermott stops praying, he blows the whistle, I don't 50 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: know who does it. 51 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 2: The music The. 52 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: Music like is like off and it's it's like startling 53 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: for those of us who've been you know, you're out 54 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: there and you kind of tune it, you know what 55 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: I mean, all of a sudden, it's dead silent. It's like, oh, 56 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: you know, it's everybody perks up. It's like, oh my gosh, 57 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: what happened? And Shawn's out there and he walks right 58 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: into the turn and starts talking to these guys. And 59 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: some of it had to do with the young players 60 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: and some of the defensive schemes, but it's also it 61 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: was also a mindset that he wanted them to have 62 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: situational why they did this, why and why they're coaching 63 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: the guys up in a certain way. Some of it 64 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: seems like nuance, but it's the level they're at. 65 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: And what they need to be thinking about precincts in 66 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 2: terms of their own personal responsibility to best serve the defense. 67 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: You always see to you and I we've been with 68 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: him in production meetings and mcnermot's always been good at this. 69 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: He'll go along and talk about the team and then 70 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: we'll bring up a guy or this guy or that 71 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: guy and he'll say, yeah, he goes you know, as 72 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: you can tell, I'm a big fan of that kid, right, Yeah, 73 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: I like that guy a lot. And so sometimes you 74 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: get a glimpse of that on the practice field where 75 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: he had take an extra minute, and everybody, you know, 76 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: is part of him coaching up a certain guy, this 77 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: guy or that guy or a group and he picks 78 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: he never you know, it's always a guy that once 79 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: he tells he's a big fan, you can kind of 80 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: tell why, you know what I mean. So it's it 81 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: was really interesting today to see him stop practicing three 82 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: different times. And I'll say this too. All three times 83 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: he was talking to the defensive side of the ball. 84 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: It kind of came across he had that coordinator thing 85 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: going right, Yeah. 86 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 2: Well, there isn't anything he doesn't do that is not intentional. Yeah, 87 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 2: he doesn't do anything haphazard there is intentionality to everything 88 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 2: that he does in his workday, and we witnessed it 89 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: a few times today on the practice field. Speaking of practice, 90 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 2: for the first time in a week, James Cook practiced 91 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 2: with his teammates. Head coach Sean McDermott said that discussions 92 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 2: between he and Cook have continued and that things have 93 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 2: changed and moved in the direction of him practicing, and 94 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 2: that in fact happened here today. We'll now see if 95 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 2: there is any new movement on a possible contract extension. 96 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 2: That would be the next thing we'd all be waiting 97 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 2: to see. We know the change in terms of his 98 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 2: practice participation has changed. Now let's see if that's a 99 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 2: signal that perhaps things have changed with respect to contract negotiations. 100 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 2: Hopefully that is the case again, Like Maddie and I 101 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 2: were talking about this yesterday, Steve, fair market value has 102 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 2: been set. Kiraen Williams contract extension has basically told everyone 103 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 2: in the National Football League what a player with that 104 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 2: level of production over the last two years is worth 105 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 2: in terms of average annual salary. Just be in the 106 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 2: neighborhood of that. And this thing's done and I think, 107 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 2: I don't know, I kind of feel like the Bills 108 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 2: are willing to pay fair market value, so clearly the 109 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: other side doesn't want to accept it yet. 110 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see. I don't know that this signals. I 111 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: don't know what him practicing today's signals. In reality. Yeah, 112 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: it's certainly a good look and he practiced well. He 113 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: looked good, and he's in shape. He's ready to go, 114 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,799 Speaker 1: I mean, right, So he looked good and the reps 115 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: he took and he seems happy to be out there. 116 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: His teammates were all about it, you know, they were, 117 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: you know, they he was just like he's one of 118 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: the family, just like always. So I don't think there's 119 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: going to be any animosity if he if he does 120 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: sign a deal and come back in or or if 121 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: if he leaves. I don't which I kind of doubt 122 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: is gonna happen this year. But ah, it's just I 123 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: think it's just another day. I have faith that a 124 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: deal will get done before the season, because I think 125 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: for a player who has played as well as James 126 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: Cook has, the Bills are, like you said, at least 127 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: in the neighborhood, and with the with the other deal 128 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: Kyron Williams deal being signed, You're right, I mean, there's 129 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: just there's just not that there. You can't be that 130 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: far apart. 131 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 2: Like's, yeah, it's limited at best. 132 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: And I and I get it too. I mean there's 133 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: some I mean if you go out and you know, 134 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: it'd probably be worth it if if fans are so client, 135 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: go out and find out who's representing James Cook and 136 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: see his track record is I don't know, but you know, 137 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: we know Brandon Brandon Bean's track record and mcdermim's track record. 138 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: We know James Cook. The only guy I don't really 139 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: know anything about is the agent. So maybe that maybe 140 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: there's something in that. I don't know, but yeah, I'm 141 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: encouraged by the whole thing. I think, you know, we're 142 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: still a long way from the opening day and and 143 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: he's and if he's practicing, even if he practices twice 144 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: a week, okay. 145 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know. Uh, Dion Dawkins left practice early with 146 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 2: athletic trainers and did not return. So we'll see if 147 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:43,079 Speaker 2: we get an update later today or maybe tomorrow, or 148 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 2: maybe in advance of the joint practice later this week 149 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 2: with the Bears. So hopefully that's not serious. Number of 150 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 2: players not practicing today is still working their way back 151 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 2: from injury, Max Harriston, who is now off crutches, Cedric 152 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 2: Van Praying, Granger Shakir who's out of the walking boot 153 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 2: he was wearing last week, Alec Anderson, Shaq Thompson, Curtis Samuel, 154 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 2: Tyler Bass, and Tyler Grabil who's still in concussion protocol. 155 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 2: Derek Forrest and Daiquon Hardy, both nicked up in last 156 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 2: week's game, just did some individual work today. Cole Bishop Taylor, 157 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: rap Kaid and Prather were limited in their return from injury. 158 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 2: Bill's also had a player transaction. They signed safety Trey 159 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 2: Herndon and to make room for him on the roster, 160 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 2: released tight end Matt Sokel. Herndon was most recently in 161 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 2: Colts training camp and was released late last week. Bills 162 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 2: are still a little shorthanded at safety, as you might 163 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 2: imagine after, you know, seeing all those injuries that I 164 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 2: just rattled off there. But Herndon's played in eighty four 165 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 2: games in his career, started thirty four of them, so 166 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 2: could do a lot worse than Trey Herndon, and at 167 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 2: twenty nine years of age. So Right spent most of 168 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 2: his career with Jacksonville up until last season, when he 169 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 2: spent some time with New Orleans and as we said, 170 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 2: he was in colts camp but was just released last 171 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 2: week Episode two Steve of Hard Knox tonight at nine pm. 172 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 2: I've I've said this before on the show. I'm anticipating 173 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 2: a lot of Joe Anne Dreesad in this episode. The 174 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 2: cameras were following him around a good deal in the 175 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 2: last week of training camp. You saw them. They were 176 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 2: all over the place following the hit. He had a 177 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 2: dedicated crew. Whether he was doing interviews on the sideline. 178 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: Crew, yeah, yeah, Hey, they're not dumb. He's a great 179 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: story man. 180 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, they know a great story. 181 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: And he has turned into, if not a really good 182 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 1: pro player, a solid pro player. It's interesting, you know 183 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 1: how far he's come. He continues to get better. So 184 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think I'm I think the guy's 185 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: already on the fifty three. I mean, there's no question 186 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: about it. We're he's not going anywhere. 187 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 2: We're just about one year removed from the preseason game 188 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 2: where he for all intents and purposes, put himself on 189 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,719 Speaker 2: the fifty three man roster. That was the second preseason 190 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: game last year in Pittsburgh. 191 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: Twell twelve tackles. 192 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:27,199 Speaker 2: He was all over the field and look, he's got instincts. 193 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it was It's one of those things. 194 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 1: And I'll say this to you can say whatever you want. 195 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: The guy got an opportunity. He made the most of it. 196 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 1: He got into a situation where the Steelers were what 197 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 1: they were. They were going to run it, they were 198 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: gonna do something. 199 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 2: You know. 200 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: They weren't a high powered offense, so they were you know, 201 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: and it was a preseason and man, for some reason, 202 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: and Dreesen saw it all. He knew it was coming. 203 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: He was all over it. He was making every tackle 204 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: and yeah, that's you can't. You have to acknowledge if 205 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 1: the game's going to mean something, that's what they mean. Yep, 206 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: there's your chance. We'll see what you do with it. 207 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,439 Speaker 1: Oh you killed it, all right, you're on. That's it 208 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: was that simple. Yeah, And I'll say this too. It 209 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: wasn't just about the Steelers game either. The entire regular season, 210 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: Joe Andreesen was there. He was available, and he played 211 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: well when called upon, and last season he got called upon. 212 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: There was a lot of instances where the game was 213 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: over and he got a play. Milana went down and 214 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: he got to play. Somebody else went down, he got 215 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: to play, and he never disappointed. He always seemed to 216 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 1: over deliver. So yeah, Joe and Dreesen's a perfect guy 217 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: for hard knocks to fall. 218 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 2: I think he will be featured in tonight's episode, just 219 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 2: based on all the cameras we saw following him over 220 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 2: the last week or so. Let's go around the NFL 221 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 2: presented by Kalida Healthy, official healthcare system of the Buffalo 222 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 2: Hills and Jet's head coach Aaron Glenn just told reporters 223 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 2: in the last hour that quarterback Tyrod Taylor had arthroscopic 224 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 2: knee surgery and they hope he'll be ready for a week, 225 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 2: but he is done for the preseason. The third and 226 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 2: fourth string quarterbacks on the Jets roster Adrian Martinez and 227 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 2: Brady Cook, so Tyrod firmly expected to be the backup. 228 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 2: This is probably just a scope right for his knee, 229 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 2: sure two to four weeks. 230 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: I'm did Adrian Martinez and Brady Cook play college football? 231 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 2: Or I know Brady Cook? 232 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: Did? 233 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 2: I have never heard of Adrian Martinez in my. 234 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: I've never heard of Brady Cook. Where'd he go? Do 235 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 1: you know? 236 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 2: I can't run on the top of your head. But 237 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 2: I remember that I have. 238 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 1: That may be the first time I've ever heard those names. Alright, 239 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,559 Speaker 1: Oh listen, I don't get her. I don't get out 240 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: too much, so maybe that's it. But bless their heart. 241 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:41,439 Speaker 1: Good for them. 242 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 2: I'm let's see Adrian Martinez Nebraska and Kansas State. 243 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: Oh, Adrian Martine. That Adrian Martinez. I do know that guy. 244 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: He's a pretty good player. 245 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, was last year in college was twenty twenty two, 246 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 2: so he's kind of bounced around a little bit. 247 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 1: Maybe it's a different guy. I don't know. Maybe I'm 248 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: fooling myself into Kansas. I'm a Kansas kid. I grew 249 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: up in Kansas. Kansas State's kind of the Wildcats are. Yeah, 250 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 1: I'm kind of soft tartar towards them. 251 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 2: It's Manhattan, closer to where you grew up than Lawrence. 252 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: It's a little closer, but there. Yeah, they're a long yeah, 253 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: not from where I got It's it's six hours instead 254 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: of six and a half. Yeah, fair enough. No that 255 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: I was talking to some guys. I played golf in 256 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: the Kelly Tournament yesterday and I was talking to Victor Green, 257 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: who is a former defensive back for the Jets, and 258 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: he and I are very well acquainted. I got a 259 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: lot of respect for him. I yeah, And I was 260 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: talking to him about Aaron Glenn, you know, and how 261 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: I had a lot of love and respect for Aaron 262 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: Glenn as a player. He was a good player. I 263 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: played against him a lot, and and I was to 264 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: asking us, it seems like he's changing things over there, 265 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: and he goes, oh, it's unbelievable. Everything is going to 266 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: be He's trying to change everything. And you and I 267 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: had the conversation where one hundred plus people were asked 268 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: to leave the building through early retirement. I mean, he's 269 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: just rinsed through the entire roster of the whole organization. 270 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: That is going to be a really interesting experiment because 271 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: you have always said, and you've been right, the Jets 272 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: were the best team ever at self destruction. 273 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 2: They're masters of self sabotage. 274 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: That's right. I'm Aaron. I think Aaron Glenn knows that 275 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: he's doing his best to, you know, do something about it. 276 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well he probably witnessed some of it as a player. Yeah, 277 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 2: Because they're going on fifty years without good player development, 278 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 2: a healthy environment in which players can thrive that has 279 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 2: been sorely absent there for the Jets for the better 280 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 2: part of fifty years. He's trying to change that and 281 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 2: it's going to take a little time, I think, but 282 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 2: a lot of people think he's up to it, so 283 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 2: good luck to him. Jordan Love undergoing surgery today to 284 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 2: repair a ligament injury to his left thumb, but the 285 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 2: Packers expect the quarterback to be ready for their season opener. 286 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 2: Love had his left thumb taped in practice yesterday, tried 287 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 2: to play through it wasn't working, so the team decided 288 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 2: the best course of action to get him healthy in 289 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 2: time for the opener would be to have a procedure 290 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 2: done on that left thumb. For those that don't know, 291 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 2: Love is a right handed thrower, so this is his 292 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 2: non throwing hand that has the thumb problem. It happened 293 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 2: late in the preseason game last week for Green Bay, 294 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 2: so should be okay. 295 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: How late was he in the game. 296 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 2: Well, towards the end of the time that he had played. 297 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 2: He was almost done playing and then he got that thumb. 298 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 2: Nick Steelers defensive captain Cameron Hayward has been a hold 299 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 2: in at Steelers camp as he's looking to renegotiate a 300 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 2: contract extension signed less than a year ago. On Monday, 301 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 2: he strongly suggested he would be willing to miss regular 302 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 2: season games in an effort to spur progress on contract talks. Quote, 303 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 2: there are definitely options out there that could reflect that, 304 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 2: he said. My goal is to be out here and 305 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 2: I don't know what's going to happen. I've had to 306 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 2: be honest with myself to be ready for every option. 307 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 2: And has it gone the way I wanted it to go. 308 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 1: No. 309 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 2: If it did, I would be out there playing and practicing. 310 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 2: But I'd like to put this in the rearview mirror 311 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 2: and worry about ball and worry about the Jets in 312 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,400 Speaker 2: Week one. So last, just to give people the timeline, 313 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 2: last September, Hayward signs a two year extension worth twenty 314 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 2: nine million dollars, and in less than a year, he 315 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 2: is now the twenty third ranked defensive tackle and average 316 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 2: annual salary at fourteen and a half million per season. 317 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 2: So people are like, well, dude, you just signed the 318 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 2: extension last year. 319 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: But wait a minute, go ahead, Brian tell me, he. 320 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 2: Says, quote, I understand I signed a contract last year, 321 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 2: but it'd be completely honest with you. When I signed that, 322 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 2: I told them when I have an All Pro year, 323 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 2: expecting me to come back. And you can look at 324 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 2: the contract and see what it was. But I think 325 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 2: everybody kind of giggled a little bit. But in my 326 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 2: head I used it as motivation to go out there 327 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 2: and prove and prove it end quote, and Heyward did. 328 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 2: He was first team All Pro last year at age thirty. 329 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 1: Five, so that is awesome. 330 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 2: Give him his money, So we'll see where that goes. 331 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: I mean the Steelers, the Steelers are not known as 332 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,479 Speaker 2: an organization that signs somebody to an extension and then 333 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 2: goes right back to the table a year later and 334 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 2: then signs a new one with them. I mean, there 335 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 2: are a couple of exceptions that I think they've done 336 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 2: that at quarterback, so that's you know, that's one thing, 337 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 2: but I don't know if they're going to do it here. 338 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 2: For a guy that turns thirty six this season, I mean, 339 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 2: he's still a high level player. He's a defensive captain. 340 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 2: You want to do right by the guy who's done 341 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 2: everything the right way for the Steelers. I mean he's 342 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 2: also a Walter Payton Man of the Year too. 343 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 1: They could make it right, I guess all you got 344 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: to just bump the number of the contract up this year, 345 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: just give him, give him a whatever, a ten million 346 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 1: dollar bonus. 347 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 2: I just write him a ten million dollar track. Is 348 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 2: that how you figure that out? 349 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: Why not? 350 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 2: The front off his work? Was that easy? Steve? 351 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: Give him the money and then the contract's up at 352 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: the end of the year and you get it all 353 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: back in the cap. You know. You know, I'll get 354 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: a money back, but you get the room for the 355 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: money in the cap. So and then you don't have 356 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 1: to sign Hayward to a fifty million dollar contract at 357 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: age thirty six. 358 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I mean that's a little bit of 359 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 2: a sticky situation. 360 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: It is, I get it. But yeah, and they just 361 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: signed TJ. Watt to a monster deal as well. 362 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 2: So he signed through twenty six. It's this year and 363 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 2: next year that he signed through with that extension. When 364 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 2: he signed it last September, I. 365 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: Thought he signed a two year extension. 366 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 2: On top of the year he had left, so he 367 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 2: had he had a year left. They signed him to 368 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 2: a two year extension that runs through twenty six, as 369 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 2: I understand it, so he gave him fair warning though hey, 370 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 2: we're gonna have to sit down again after I make 371 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 2: first team All Pro and they're like hey, yeah, yeah, congrats, congrats. 372 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 2: And then he goes out and he's first team All 373 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 2: Pro and they're like, oh. 374 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, or they were laughing at him because he's thirty 375 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: five years old. Only adnyth think game gonna do it? 376 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, wow, Yeah, jokes on the Steelers in a good way. 377 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 2: They don't know what. 378 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 1: They said to his statement about coming back next year 379 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: if he's All Pro. If they laughed at it as 380 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: one thing, if they said, you know, if they were 381 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: laughing at. 382 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 2: Kill he by his description they giggled a bit. Yeah, 383 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 2: so used it as motivation and there it is. We'll 384 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,719 Speaker 2: see if it results in any more money in his pocket. 385 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 2: Texans tight end Brevin Jordan unfortunately suffered a right knee 386 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 2: injury during Monday's practice. He is on season ending injured reserve. 387 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 2: He had to be carted off the field after initially 388 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 2: trying to walk it off. So a tough break for 389 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 2: the young tight end there in Houston. They do have 390 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 2: Dalton Schultz at the position as well, so it's not 391 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 2: like the cupboard is bear for Houston. But that is 392 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 2: a loss he is an athletic pass catching tight end. 393 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 2: So tough break there for the Texans. That is around 394 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 2: the NFL Presented by Kalida Health, the official healthcare system 395 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 2: of the Buffalo Bills, we have a jam packed show 396 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 2: for you today, and you know it's almost football season, Steve. 397 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:24,199 Speaker 2: When we have who Greg Cosell on with us, he 398 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 2: is going to be reviewing preseason game number one for 399 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 2: the Bills and some of the players that may have 400 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 2: caught his eye in the course of the performance.

How about it? 416 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 1: Awesome, let's go. So that's a nice little resume. 417 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I remember right after Josh got drafted, we 418 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 2: had Craig Bowll on our show, Yeah from Wyoming, and 419 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 2: still I distinctly remember him saying that Buffalo is gonna 420 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 2: love this guy. He's got the right demeanor for that city. 421 00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 2: He's a winner.

I think it was Eastern Michigan 433 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 2: and Wyoming. Those are things you match. If Josh went 434 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 2: to the MAC and play Eastern Michigan. Wow, because I 435 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 2: remember I was. I was calling UB games when Ben 436 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 2: Roethlisberger was at Miami Right University in Ohio, and it 437 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 2: was like a man amongst boys, things like we go there, 438 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 2: it's a fifty nine to three game, he had like 439 00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:58,640 Speaker 2: five touchdown. 440 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 1: You'll get the uh, really good pro football player in 441 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: the MAC. Well, back then, nil's kind of changed that. Yes, 442 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:08,440 Speaker 1: it's filtered by money. 443 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 2: Twenty years ago you would get that. 444 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: Twenty Yes, you would get a guy like Khalil mack 445 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 1: at you be Antonio Brown's Antonio Brown.

So yeah, you miss it a little bit. 489 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 1: Uh. 490 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 2: Did you ever think a performance on the field in 491 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 2: the NFL would be headlined by you kicking more than 492 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 2: running or catching a football? Did you ever think that 493 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 2: would come to pass? 494 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 3: No? No, I've had dreams about it though, but. 495 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 2: No, Okay, now I gotta ask you, so where it 496 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 2: Do you have any kind of background in soccer or 497 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 2: anything like that that kind of put you in position 498 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 2: to do what you did on Saturday when you kick 499 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 2: the extra point? 500 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 3: Yeah? I played soccer pretty much all my whole life, 501 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 3: you know, elementary school. I went to Brett Hart and 502 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 3: we had this thing where you have to write poetry 503 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 3: and you got to play soccer. So it's like so 504 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 3: it was like hand in hand. So I got to 505 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 3: play soccer from many years. I played it in middle school. 506 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 3: I got a chance to play a little bit in 507 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 3: high school. I was a goalie, so you know, we're 508 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 3: used to kicking the balls, kicking the bass so far. 509 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 3: So that was kind of my background on it. That's 510 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 3: why when we got the soccer shoe, it was easy 511 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 3: to put on. I knew how to kick the ball. 512 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 3: Wasn't no no toe kick guy. 513 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, he shrunk out of the goalies. 514 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 2: He used the laces. 515 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say, you grew into it. But then 516 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: I was athletic. Those guys, all those guys are like 517 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: six six. 518 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 3: Man, What did they say? What's it saying hard over height? 519 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 1: Okay? Or is it not the size of the dog 520 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: in the fight? The fight and the dog? 521 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 3: Yeah? 522 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. What's going to be different about the offense this year? 523 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: What are you noticing that maybe's happened a little more, 524 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: a little less, a little different. 525 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 3: I'll be honest. I mean, besides some of the new 526 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 3: accusations we obviously got, I think it's still the same mantra. 527 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 3: Everybody eats, right, you know, everybody's gonna come in and 528 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 3: do their part. And I think Joe as an offensive coordinator, 529 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 3: his job is just to put everybody's skills, you know, 530 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 3: on display. And I think that would we continue to 531 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 3: do that with having seventeen back there, you know, leading 532 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,360 Speaker 3: the charge and you know you got four. You got 533 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 3: a lot of guys who just are used to who've 534 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 3: been in the offense for so long. Now, we got 535 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 3: to get the guys who's knew to get acclimated to 536 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 3: so when this time for them to eat, we could 537 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 3: be able to celebrate them and continue to get this 538 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 3: boat moving. 539 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 2: How nice was it to get kind of James back 540 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 2: into the fold? I mean that trio that you guys 541 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 2: ran with last year, as we know, was super successful. 542 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 2: You're gonna run it back again this year. How nice 543 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 2: is it to get him back in the fold and 544 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 2: just into you know, the run of practice. 545 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:28,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's good to see James out there. 546 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,479 Speaker 3: It's always good to see James out there. That's how 547 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 3: you know we got some exciting things happening, you know, 548 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 3: when he's using his playmaking ability. Then obviously again having 549 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 3: Tie Todd being our third down back, and protection and 550 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 3: running route. So to have all three of us back 551 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 3: there has been pretty good to have James back. But 552 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 3: you know, truth be told, I think there are so 553 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 3: many good things with having three guys when you have 554 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 3: a running back by committee, guys are healthy, guys are fresh, 555 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 3: and we all bring a different asset of skill to 556 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 3: the game. And when you don't know who can do what, 557 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 3: that's scary for a defensive coordinator. 558 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 1: So I know this might be a little getting out 559 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: a little ahead of the game here, but this next week, 560 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 1: in the next couple of days, you're gonna be head 561 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 1: of Chicago. A couple of days of practice with those 562 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: guys travel. How did how what's the message you've been 563 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: getting about getting prepared for that? I know they're kind 564 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: of you're just trying to take it one play at 565 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: a time, forget about it even tomorrow until today's over, right, 566 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: But how's that on the horizon? What are they told 567 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: told you about starting to get ready for the Chicago trip? 568 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 3: The most they told us is worry about August twelfth. Yeah, 569 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 3: that's kind of the most. That's what we talked about today. 570 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 3: Just worry about today, you know, be realre if it 571 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 3: is and you know, when we get there is when 572 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 3: we get there. But it's a chance to compete. It's 573 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 3: a chance to compete. It's a chance to just go 574 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 3: out there and dominate and practice. And when you get 575 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 3: the practice against people who you get to play against 576 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 3: that upcoming Sunday, you get to see your opponent hand 577 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 3: to hand and see what they're good ass see what 578 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 3: their their tendencies. I think that's pretty good for young guys. 579 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 3: It was pretty good for me last year when we 580 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 3: went to Pittsburgh and it felt a sense of confidence 581 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:52,719 Speaker 3: be able to go out there and play against them 582 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 3: when we practice and then let the game transition, let 583 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 3: the practice transition to the game. So we're focusing on 584 00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 3: right now, but you know, when that time comes up, 585 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 3: be ready. 586 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 2: What was the general consensus from the coaching staff after 587 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 2: you had a chance to review the game film offensively 588 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 2: from last Saturday, because maybe not exactly a fast start, 589 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 2: but after you guys got rolling, you kind of strung 590 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 2: some scoring drives together. What was the general feedback from 591 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 2: the coaches interviewing the game tape? 592 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean not everything's gonna be easy, you know. 593 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 3: I think for us, you look at our offense last year, 594 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 3: I think we were on the top offensive, top scoring 595 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 3: offenses in the NFL. Right, And that's not gonna come easy. 596 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 3: That's no one's just gonna give that to us this year. 597 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 3: That doesn't necessarily mean we're gonna be the best offense 598 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 3: once again. So kind of you know, one thing that 599 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 3: they were kind of always preaching is just we gotta 600 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 3: start fast, but we've gotta stay true to. 601 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: Who we are. 602 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 3: And you know, again, what we do is gonna dictate 603 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 3: how how how the game goes. So if we start slow, 604 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 3: it could be a slow game for us. If we 605 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 3: start fast, it could be a well fishing game for us. 606 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 3: So just really honing in on our details and letting 607 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 3: it be known, nothing's gonna be easy. 608 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: Okay, let's talk about Ray Davis for a hot minute. 609 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 1: You know, what was your thoughts when you know, what 610 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: was your exit interview at the postseason? What they tell 611 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: you about maybe do this, do that, get ready for this, 612 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: do this to your body or change your body or 613 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: get whatever whatever, and then how it goes and how 614 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: it went, how it went in the off season, and 615 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: how it's gone early in camp. 616 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, there were some things we wanted to 617 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 3: work on. We wanted to continue to get better just 618 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 3: being consistent in the game, from pass part of running 619 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 3: to catching. I didn't feel comfortable out the weight that 620 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 3: I was, so we you know, we came down to 621 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 3: an agreement where we wanted to be and once I 622 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 3: was able to set that plan of what they felt 623 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 3: was best and I felt was comfortable and off passes 624 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 3: of the game, I stayed here all off season. I 625 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 3: worked at our strength staff. I had a plan with them. 626 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 3: They had to play with me, and it was about 627 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 3: executing that plan. And I think coming in from training 628 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 3: camp this season and you know, still obviously still in 629 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 3: training camp and hopefully throughout the season, it'll be able 630 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 3: to show that I stayed consistent. I put in the work, 631 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 3: and I just wanted to have the opportunity to go 632 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 3: out there and show show the world that again I 633 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 3: am who I am and I can really contribute to this, 634 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 3: to this team. 635 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: Give us, you know, give us some details you wanted 636 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: to They want you heavier, You want to be heavier. 637 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: They wanted you lighter. You wanted to be lighter, which. 638 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, which was we wanted to be lighter. You know, 639 00:31:58,160 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 3: I think last year, while I was the bruiser kind 640 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 3: of bad for us on a short, short yardage, and 641 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 3: I felt that, you know, I could do a lot 642 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 3: more than just be a bruiser, So we knocked it 643 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 3: down to about two to oh eight. I think throughout 644 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 3: the season about two fifteen two sixteen, I'm two owa, 645 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 3: a phil Way, lighter, fhil Way, faster and be able 646 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 3: to move how I want to move out two o eight. 647 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 3: That's kind of like my cause days. So that was 648 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 3: something we agreed on and I love it and I 649 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 3: love being there. 650 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, what about you know, you've you've obviously had a 651 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 2: chance to get some extra reps on the field while 652 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 2: James was watching this past week and just being in 653 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 2: a state of readiness for the regular season, because that 654 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 2: first game is a doozy, as you know, against Baltimore, 655 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 2: who is going to come in here still sore about 656 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 2: how last season ended for them, with you guys bouncing 657 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 2: them out of the playoffs. When you're getting extra time, 658 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 2: extra reps to ready yourself for the regular season, I'm 659 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 2: just curious how you take that. Because you take every 660 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 2: rep you can get naturally to feel ready for the 661 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 2: regular season. You've been afforded more just by virtue of 662 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 2: the fact that Jane's been out of the practice setting 663 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 2: the last week. Do you feel any more ready? I mean, 664 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 2: year two, you obviously feel more ready than you did 665 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 2: as a rookie, But do you feel any more ready 666 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 2: you know for week one? I know it's still a 667 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 2: ways off, but that's what you're targeting. 668 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, I feel confident. Yea, I think that's a 669 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 3: better word. 670 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 671 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 3: Ready, obviously, but I feel confident. I feel super confident 672 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 3: in my playmaking ability. I feel super confident in the playbook, 673 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 3: and I just feel super confident that they put me 674 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 3: out there and the fit I can execute my job. 675 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 3: And you know, I think year one that was that 676 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 3: was something I wasn't ready for. It was still up 677 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 3: and down. I was still kind of no you learn 678 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 3: as you go. Yeah, you know, I was nervous. Did 679 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,479 Speaker 3: I wanted to be a perfectionist and understand not every 680 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 3: play is going to be perfect. So I feel way 681 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 3: more confident this year and being able to talk to 682 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,239 Speaker 3: Joe and talk to Josh and and Tie and all 683 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 3: those guys and give my feedback of what I think 684 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 3: I'm good at. It's good to know that they're willing 685 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 3: to listen and try to go and make that happen. 686 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,479 Speaker 1: Give us a list to you in the locker room. 687 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 1: I know, guys talk about, you know, all your hopes 688 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: and dreams about the as a team, as a group, 689 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: what are we going to do this year? Give us 690 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: a quick synopsis. I know you win the division. Do 691 00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: you know how does that list look these days? And 692 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: is it different than last year? How how is the 693 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: team handling what they want to accomplish. 694 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know, we live by playoff caliber. 695 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,359 Speaker 3: That's one of our sayings, right and you know, we 696 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 3: all would love to say we want to win the 697 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 3: super Bowl. We want to go to super Bowl, but 698 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 3: you gotta again, you gotta win the division first. You 699 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 3: gotta win the regular season, then win the division. Didn't 700 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 3: get to the playoffs. So I think we're taking a 701 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 3: step by step. You know, we're going to focus on 702 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 3: the season. However the season plays out, and you know, 703 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 3: for blessed to be able to make it to the playoffs, 704 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 3: and we focus on that and so forth on. You know, 705 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 3: we're really close last year, as everyone knows, and I 706 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 3: think that that's gone, that's over with. Now we're focused 707 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 3: on this twenty twenty five season. And whatever the outcome is, 708 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:41,239 Speaker 3: I think we'll just be blessed and happy, you know 709 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 3: that we put our best foot forward and put out 710 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 3: the best offense and defense and team that we can 711 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 3: for a twenty twenty five NFL season. 712 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 2: Last one for me, Ray, you mentioned the new acquisitions, 713 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 2: and it looks like Joshua Palmer and Elijah Moore a 714 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,240 Speaker 2: kind of you know, working their way in and finding 715 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 2: their niche within the scope of the offense, which I 716 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,879 Speaker 2: have to imagine isn't terribly easy when you have one 717 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 2: that was as successful as yours was last year. It's like, well, 718 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 2: where do I fit in here? How do you feel 719 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 2: like those guys are acclimating to this new offense in 720 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 2: this new environment for them. 721 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 3: Very well, you know, just coming looking at from outside 722 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 3: in and looking at Joshua Palmer getting too the routine 723 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 3: working with josh I think we all saw it on 724 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 3: hard knocks last last week where they were trying to 725 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 3: build that connection on the fade ball. So seeing that 726 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 3: they're putting that work after practice, so those two could 727 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 3: really connect. Same thing with being you know, being in 728 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 3: a slot, being outside kind of mixing around, seeing his 729 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 3: skill set and what he brings to the table. I 730 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,440 Speaker 3: think they're going to be great accusations where there aready accusations. 731 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 3: I think they're gonna be great people for offense and 732 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 3: what they can do. And Josh is a Josh. Joshua 733 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 3: Palmer is you know, a great guy. He's quiet, but 734 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,359 Speaker 3: he works hard. And I think a lot of our 735 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 3: receivers are seeing that veteranness in him of coming in 736 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 3: and grabbing his hard hat doing what he has to do. 737 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 3: So both of those guys are huge, huge pickups for us, 738 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:02,760 Speaker 3: and they're gonna get tu to be huge throughout the season. 739 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:04,839 Speaker 1: Ray, thanks for coming on, man, appreciate it's good see 740 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: you again. 741 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I appreciate you.

All right, back here on One Bill's Live. 748 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 2: Good conversation there with Ray Davis and Steve. Since you 749 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 2: weren't here yesterday, I thought I would pick your brain 750 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 2: a little bit just about guys that you felt caught 751 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:47,320 Speaker 2: your eye in the preseason opener, you know, last Saturday. 752 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:49,279 Speaker 2: Anybody kinda I. 753 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 1: Hate Flash, No, I hate to say it like this. 754 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: I was more interested in, like I thought, the two 755 00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: tight ends haws and I can't what's the other one? No, 756 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 1: the big toll guy, oh h Davidson. Davidson. I know 757 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 1: they struggled like they had too many drop passes in 758 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: that game. And I'll say this too, I understand how 759 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 1: it goes. I remember the mindset you got to get 760 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,960 Speaker 1: out of as a young player just to relax and play. 761 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: Those guys were they seemed too tense to cut loose 762 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 1: and play. We've seen him play and practice much better 763 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 1: than they played in that game. There are other guys 764 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 1: who you know, you know, I was more I was 765 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: looking at that game with a real critical eye, so 766 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 1: I was having a I did not see guys Flash 767 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 1: like I would have liked. I gotta be honest. I 768 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: know it's the first preseason game, so maybe maybe I'm 769 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 1: I'm cynic. 770 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:50,880 Speaker 2: That's usually me. 771 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:52,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm usually this right. 772 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 2: You're you're the optimistic guy. 773 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 1: You're the You're the hard cynical media type. 774 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 2: Easily Yeah, cause I was. I was impressed with a 775 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 2: lot of guys in the defensive front were in that game. Yeah, 776 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 2: I really liked what Bosa did early, just in terms 777 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 2: of setting the run front and impacting the pass rush. 778 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 2: I thought Michael Hoyt was all over the place causing problems, 779 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 2: being disruptive. Milano looked like he was shot out of 780 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 2: a cannon earlyer in that game. 781 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: Milano was a guy. Now you mentioned I thought Milano 782 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: played extremely well. He seemed like Matt Mulano. 783 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, Andresen had a good performance reading the run game. 784 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 2: I mean he triggers and he is going. TJ. Sanders 785 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 2: had a handful of good plays. We saw Dion Walker 786 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 2: flash there on the batted pass near the end zone. 787 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 2: Solomon had some good rushes. So the guys in the 788 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 2: defensive front I was very encouraged by. And then in 789 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:54,319 Speaker 2: the back seven, the undrafted rookie Kante Jenkins was out 790 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 2: there with the second unit. He's lining up right next 791 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,919 Speaker 2: to Andres. Kid's making a move. 792 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: Shack's been injured, Shack Town Shak Thompson. So you know 793 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,200 Speaker 1: he's Dorian Williams for that man they've so he's got 794 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,360 Speaker 1: some reps and maybe that has a little to do 795 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: with it, but he didn't look out of place, Nope, you. 796 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 2: Know, nope. And then Hancock on the back end, I mean, 797 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 2: he comes running twenty yards across the field and Deck's 798 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 2: a running back out of bounds over the giant sideline, 799 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 2: like he didn't just get there. He walloped that guy. 800 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 2: And I was like, well, yeah, more of that. 801 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: Please, if you know, yeah, if you know what I mean, 802 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 1: it's he didn't just get there, he showed up. 803 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 2: Oh so I mean not the guy three yards over 804 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 2: the sideline. 805 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yes, sir, I have another time you and 806 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: I are talking you and I believe that it's time 807 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,360 Speaker 1: to start watching that dude.

He 812 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,839 Speaker 2: was playing a lot of free safety last week due 813 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 2: to the fact that they didn't have rap they didn't 814 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 2: have Bishop. Those guys are both out injured, so they're 815 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 2: shorthanded at the position, so they needed him more there 816 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 2: as well as cam Lewis for that matter. 817 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: We yeah, so wow, well she looks. 818 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 2: Very comfortable playing in center field. 819 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 1: Back there, I'm the injuries are i don't know what 820 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:28,280 Speaker 1: you call it, the pebble in the in the calm pond. 821 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,360 Speaker 1: The ripple effects of these injuries are causing it to 822 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: get a little bit wavy and a little confused on 823 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,720 Speaker 1: the surface of this pond. Because now you've got guys 824 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:45,840 Speaker 1: taking a lot more reps like Counte Hancock. These guys, 825 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 1: it's and they're not falling down. 826 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:51,880 Speaker 2: No, They're making the most of the opportunity. 827 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:54,799 Speaker 1: It's not like they're like, we can't wait till these 828 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,279 Speaker 1: starters get back. None of that's going on. They're like, 829 00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,359 Speaker 1: all right, let's try this now. 830 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:00,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's. 831 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 1: It's interesting. It's really interesting. We thought we had a 832 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,760 Speaker 1: good idea of how this training camp was gonna evolve 833 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:12,760 Speaker 1: and come through. It has started to evolve into something 834 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: other than we thought it would. 835 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,359 Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh, players who I thought flashed, you know, maybe 836 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,399 Speaker 2: they didn't have enough time on the field to do more, 837 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,239 Speaker 2: or you know, they just flashed and maybe they make 838 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 2: progress or take another step. In the second preseason game, 839 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 2: Dion Walker, who I mentioned, you know, had that great 840 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 2: pass rush that's the pass out of the air, Chase Lunkt, 841 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 2: who was playing some left tackle and some guard. They 842 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,360 Speaker 2: actually ran a play where they had him execute the 843 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 2: blocking assignment. We see Dion Dawkins do all the time, 844 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 2: pulled all the way from the left side, came up 845 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,280 Speaker 2: through the right side, sealed the block seven eight yards 846 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:47,439 Speaker 2: on the run play. That's a win. 847 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,399 Speaker 1: We saw that on our broadcast too, where both he 848 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:54,359 Speaker 1: and the and whoever they had two guys coming out 849 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 1: and pulling around on the right side of the offense 850 00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: and it was very well executed. 851 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,400 Speaker 2: Saw a lot of Regie gilliam and I thought he 852 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 2: was effective in the time that he played. And I 853 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 2: was talking to Steved practice today. Late last year, we 854 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 2: saw a lot of eye formation and offset eye from 855 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 2: this offense. I wouldn't be surprised if we see a 856 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 2: lot more of it again this season, because I think 857 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,440 Speaker 2: they they liked some of that. They utilized some of 858 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 2: that in like some blowout victories, and then all of 859 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 2: a sudden we saw more of it late in the season. 860 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 2: I was like, hmm, I think they like it. Well. 861 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: They put all they got, all these tools in the toolbox. 862 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,280 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean they're gonna do it all the time 863 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: every week. But if you get and just between us, 864 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 1: you get into a game against a soft defense like Miami, Yeah, 865 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 1: let's go ice offset eye and let's just beat him up. 866 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 1: They don't. They don't want any part of it. Or 867 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 1: they have shown let's see if it's their lack of enthusiasm. Right. 868 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 1: They may be different this year, but they they were 869 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 1: sawt last year. Yeah, so you know, you just you 870 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 1: know what, I got a we got a remedy for that. 871 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,360 Speaker 1: We're gonna put Reggie gilliam on the field right with 872 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:00,040 Speaker 1: Jackson Hawes and knocks and men. We're gonna go. We 873 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 1: will see you. 874 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 2: We'll see other guys that I thought flashed. Kaleki Latu 875 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 2: made a couple of plays on offense late in the game. 876 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,440 Speaker 2: Also played a lot on special teams and looks like 877 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 2: he's a big guy, but he can run like he 878 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 2: can go down and cover. So that impressed me. 879 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 1: What did you think about the new kickoff they're putting 880 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,880 Speaker 1: it in now it's the preseason, and they did this 881 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 1: last year too. They put it in play last year. 882 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 1: Think the league said, hey, let's have some kickoff returns. 883 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: Then when the regular season got here, they kicked it 884 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 1: through the end zone. I don't know if they're going 885 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: to do that. 886 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 2: I was surprised to see touchbacks even last weekend. 887 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think because here's the thing, here's what teams 888 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 1: we'll think about. You weigh the risk. Certainly, if you 889 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: tackle the guy nine times out of ten, maybe nineteen 890 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 1: times out of twenty, maybe ninety nine times out of 891 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 1: one hundred, you're going to tackle him inside the thirty five, 892 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 1: So you're gaining whatever percentage that is on a drive start. 893 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 1: And sometimes you get him inside the thirty, sometimes you 894 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:00,560 Speaker 1: get him inside the twenty five, or sometimes even more 895 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,800 Speaker 1: right if the guy mishandles or whatever. So give way 896 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:08,720 Speaker 1: your ability to get gain ground on field position, whatever 897 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,919 Speaker 1: that is, with the risk of giving up the big one. 898 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:18,959 Speaker 1: I think teams are gonna if head coach are gonna 899 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 1: make the deal. I said, listen, we're gonna we're gonna 900 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: kick it and put it in play. We trust you 901 00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 1: guys to tackle him short, let's go. So I think 902 00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 1: you're gonna see a lot of that with teams playing 903 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:27,840 Speaker 1: percentages like that. 904 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 2: Last couple of guys I saw that flashed to Corey Couch, 905 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,879 Speaker 2: who played a lot more at nickel corner, especially after 906 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 2: Tarren left the game, even though he was cleared by 907 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 2: the independent neurologist to return to the game, you just 908 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:42,760 Speaker 2: knew he wasn't gonna come back. So to Corey Couch 909 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 2: plays a lot more at the nickel than people thought. 910 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 2: And I thought he did okay, and then Dwayne Carter 911 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 2: flashed up front. Well he doesn't, you know, always get 912 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:53,440 Speaker 2: a ton of reps. But man, you notice him. I 913 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 2: just think he reads plays very well. He's very He's 914 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:01,719 Speaker 2: a very good anticipatory player, and I think it puts 915 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:04,360 Speaker 2: him in position to make plays at or behind the 916 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 2: line of scrimmage. I think he's very good at that. 917 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 1: I think something we haven't seen too much, and maybe 918 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:10,680 Speaker 1: you've seen it more than I have. TJ. Sanders and 919 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: Dwayne Carter. I'm kind of liking them. 920 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 2: Are you talking about Dean Walker too or no? 921 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 1: Just those just no. 922 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:21,480 Speaker 2: I like wins quickly. 923 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, they both bring something out. Carter was a little 924 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 1: bit derailed last year in his first year injury, but TJ. 925 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:32,439 Speaker 1: Sanders and Dwayne Carter are gonna. I think they're gonna 926 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 1: be a part of this team for the foreseeable future. 927 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:39,840 Speaker 1: Dion Walker, I think he's in a deep pool with 928 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:43,719 Speaker 1: some really talented players, and he's gonna get some opportunities. 929 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:47,520 Speaker 1: But I think those two Sanders and Carter, I think 930 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 1: are going to be heavy rotat in the rotation this 931 00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 1: year right out of the gate, with especially with Ogan, 932 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 1: Joebi and Hoyts thing. 933 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:56,759 Speaker 2: That's part of the reason where why you kind of 934 00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 2: have to get those guys ready to roll in light 935 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 2: of how things are gonna look come week one, two, three, four, five, 936 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 2: and six. No One, Hoyd and Ogan Jobie aren't part 937 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,720 Speaker 2: of the equation being on the reserve suspended list. Gotta 938 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 2: take a break here when we come back. Our number 939 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,800 Speaker 2: two begins with our good friend Greg co Sale, senior 940 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 2: producer from NFL Films. We're gonna run through some of 941 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,839 Speaker 2: those players from preseason game number one and see what 942 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 2: the film told him about their performance.

You know it's it's 952 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 4: getting to be that time of year. You know, we've 953 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,719 Speaker 4: we've started these preseason games, which you know, I know 954 00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 4: that everybody has to make a final evaluation on every 955 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,439 Speaker 4: play and determine a guy's career based on every single play. 956 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:56,360 Speaker 4: That's where we are in the preseason. 957 00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:59,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and we got to first look all around the league. 958 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,400 Speaker 1: The Bills taking on the Giants here in Buffalo on 959 00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:07,239 Speaker 1: a smoking hot day, which which always catches us off 960 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 1: guard a little bit from where we leave off the 961 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 1: season usually, but nevertheless, nevertheless a getting I know you've 962 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,239 Speaker 1: seen some of this, give us, you know, off the 963 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:20,960 Speaker 1: top of your head, give us your impressions of maybe 964 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,880 Speaker 1: some of the younger players that the Bills brought in. 965 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I watched. I mean the guys I 966 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 4: watched were Sanders and walk through the d tackles. I 967 00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:36,160 Speaker 4: watched Hancock, the rookie safety, who, by the way, I 968 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:37,960 Speaker 4: really like that kid. I liked his tape a lot 969 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,719 Speaker 4: at Ohio State you know, I thought he was a 970 00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 4: really versatile player, which is the way he was kind 971 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 4: of used in that game. You know, I don't know 972 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 4: what the status of the other safeties are with injuries, 973 00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:51,759 Speaker 4: but I thought he was a really interesting player, you know. 974 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,719 Speaker 4: So you know, those are the guys I really took 975 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 4: a look at in detail. I'll tell you who I like, 976 00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 4: and you guys can tell me I'm not there if 977 00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:01,279 Speaker 4: he's had a good training camp. But how has the 978 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,600 Speaker 4: rookie corner strong been in training camp? Because I really 979 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:07,359 Speaker 4: liked his tape in college and I think he's he's 980 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 4: got really good corner traits. 981 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's done well. I would say his second week 982 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:16,359 Speaker 2: of training camp was probably his best stretch. Had an 983 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:20,000 Speaker 2: interception and a pass breakup over the course of the week. 984 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:24,080 Speaker 2: And he's rotated up for more reps with Harston being 985 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 2: out with the springdalecl so he's got higher quality reps 986 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:34,040 Speaker 2: against conceivably better competitions. So and you know, as you know, 987 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 2: the Bills love length at cornerback, and he has that, 988 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 2: you know, at six' one ninety five, and he's got 989 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 2: long arms. 990 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:45,959 Speaker 4: Yeah no, and he's you know, he played a ton 991 00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:49,279 Speaker 4: of press in college. At Virginia Tech, and he's a 992 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:52,319 Speaker 4: very very good press man corner. I think he can 993 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 4: play press ball as well. You know, I guess the 994 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 4: issue for a lot of guys like that Brownie, and 995 00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 4: we talked about this with coher Elam, who's obviously no 996 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 4: longer with the Bills, is the issue for guys that 997 00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:04,920 Speaker 4: play so much press in press in college is to 998 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,640 Speaker 4: really understand the subtleties and nuances in details of playing zone, 999 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,960 Speaker 4: because zone is a much different animal than playing press. 1000 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,320 Speaker 1: What did you think of Hancocks Davia against the Giants? 1001 00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:18,879 Speaker 4: But I liked it. I mean, I like the way 1002 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:22,839 Speaker 4: he plays, you know, you know, I think he's an 1003 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,680 Speaker 4: aggressive player. You know, the play that actually stood out 1004 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:27,239 Speaker 4: to me. They used him three or four times as 1005 00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:30,839 Speaker 4: a blitzer, obviously, but I really thought that the play 1006 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:32,960 Speaker 4: that stood out to me was a play he didn't make. 1007 00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 4: But I think it was the second play of the 1008 00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 4: third quarter where he showed some physicality running the alley 1009 00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:40,560 Speaker 4: from the back end in the run game and really 1010 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:43,359 Speaker 4: took on a block with some force. Now, as I said, 1011 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:46,360 Speaker 4: he didn't make the play, but you know, I just 1012 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:48,799 Speaker 4: think that he's there's an aggressiveness to him. There's a 1013 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 4: tenacity to him, there's a competitive toughness to him, and 1014 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:54,279 Speaker 4: I think that there's a versatility to him. He can 1015 00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 4: play on the back end, he can play in the box. 1016 00:50:56,840 --> 00:51:00,280 Speaker 4: He's physical. I think he can even play post say 1017 00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:04,080 Speaker 4: at times. So you know, again, you know he's a 1018 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:06,319 Speaker 4: he's a later round pick, so you never know how 1019 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:10,279 Speaker 4: all that plays out. I know is Cole Bishops is 1020 00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:12,200 Speaker 4: he still injured or did he just not play it. 1021 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:14,840 Speaker 2: He's working his way back. He's got a quad injury 1022 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,839 Speaker 2: and he's missed over a week of action. So yeah, 1023 00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:20,160 Speaker 2: it's part of the reason Hancock got pressed into action. 1024 00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 2: Cam Lewis started the game with Damar Hamlin and then 1025 00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:24,239 Speaker 2: Hancock came. 1026 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:28,400 Speaker 4: By the way, Cam cam Lewis looked great in that. Yeah, 1027 00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:31,200 Speaker 4: for whatever it's worth, the preseason game, but he was 1028 00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:33,719 Speaker 4: he I love the way he also played downhill in 1029 00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 4: the run game. He made a number of tackles with 1030 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:39,359 Speaker 4: physicality and toughness. But you know, then again, last year 1031 00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,320 Speaker 4: when he played, I thought he was a really nice 1032 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,440 Speaker 4: sort of piece because obviously he wasn't a true starter. 1033 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:47,359 Speaker 4: But when he plays, he shows up. 1034 00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, And what's interesting is Cam as well as Hancock 1035 00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:54,600 Speaker 2: are being cross trained. Well. Lewis has already done it 1036 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:58,000 Speaker 2: playing nickel and safety, but they have Hancock playing nickel 1037 00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:02,360 Speaker 2: and safety too, And they said there's a timetable on Hancock, 1038 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:05,080 Speaker 2: so there might be a time where they just hone 1039 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:07,799 Speaker 2: in on one position for him, but for now he's 1040 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:08,879 Speaker 2: still handling too. 1041 00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:10,880 Speaker 1: What do you think about Hancock as a nickel? 1042 00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:15,120 Speaker 4: He played some in college. It wouldn't be new to him, 1043 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:18,360 Speaker 4: you know, he did that before. It's not brand new obviously, 1044 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,640 Speaker 4: playing in the NFL as a whole new experience. My 1045 00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:24,200 Speaker 4: guess is over time that he'd be able to do it, 1046 00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 4: you know, as Brownie suggested, there's you know, they're working 1047 00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 4: with him. There's a timetable, you know, I don't know 1048 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,719 Speaker 4: when they'd feel comfortable with him in that role. It's 1049 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 4: obviously a team that plays a high percentage of nickel, 1050 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 4: you know, with Taran Johnson being a really good nickel, 1051 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:42,399 Speaker 4: not only from a coverage perspective but from a run 1052 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:46,959 Speaker 4: defense perspective, which is really important for this defense because 1053 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:50,680 Speaker 4: there are times, depending on your front, where the nickel 1054 00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,920 Speaker 4: has a b gap responsibility in the run game. So 1055 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:57,760 Speaker 4: you know that's an inside gap as you know Steve, 1056 00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:00,880 Speaker 4: so you know Johnson can handle that. He's done that 1057 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 4: for the last number of years. You have to be 1058 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 4: able to do that to play Nickel in this defense. 1059 00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:10,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, you mentioned you watched Sanders and Walker. Sanders is 1060 00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:14,200 Speaker 2: a guy that we've seen in camp already. You want 1061 00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:18,840 Speaker 2: to talk about winning early in the down. Sometimes sometimes 1062 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:22,840 Speaker 2: he beats guards before they're out of their stance. What 1063 00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,400 Speaker 2: did you see from him in this game in particular? 1064 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:28,360 Speaker 4: Ah, he did that in this game as well. I 1065 00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:30,720 Speaker 4: mean he was the one that got to Dart obviously 1066 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:34,000 Speaker 4: on the touchdown to Humphrey. But you saw that right there. 1067 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 4: That's what he was in college. I mean, I loved 1068 00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:39,360 Speaker 4: him coming out and I thought he was more of 1069 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:42,480 Speaker 4: a pass rusher at this point in his development than 1070 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:45,880 Speaker 4: a run player. But I think that he has the 1071 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:50,919 Speaker 4: ability to do that. So the quickness and he plays low. 1072 00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:53,759 Speaker 4: You know, it was really interesting Brownie watching because because 1073 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:57,720 Speaker 4: obviously Sanders and Walker played almost all their snaps together, 1074 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:02,600 Speaker 4: if memory serves me correctly, and I have to tell 1075 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:05,960 Speaker 4: you that Sanders plays really low. He's so quick off 1076 00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 4: the ball, He's got quick hands and feet. He plays 1077 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:13,279 Speaker 4: off contact really really well, whereas Walker and you know 1078 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 4: this is this was the concern. It's the reason he 1079 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,520 Speaker 4: was a fourth round pick and not a higher pick 1080 00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:23,400 Speaker 4: is he has a main big tendency to play too high, 1081 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 4: and that's just hard to fix. I mean, I'm not 1082 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:26,840 Speaker 4: a coach, and I'm not going to sit here and 1083 00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:28,720 Speaker 4: say he can never play in the league. I would 1084 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:30,839 Speaker 4: never say that about any rookie. I don't. I don't 1085 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 4: do that because I just don't talk like that. You 1086 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:36,640 Speaker 4: never know how things go from here on. But that 1087 00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,560 Speaker 4: tendency to play too high, you lose all your power 1088 00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:41,880 Speaker 4: and you lose all your quick your initial quickness. So 1089 00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 4: that's something I assume that they're working on because he's 1090 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:47,840 Speaker 4: for a man that big, he's a really good athlete. 1091 00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:51,640 Speaker 1: And also there was a guy who got his his 1092 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:54,520 Speaker 1: career off to a hard start last year, Dwayne Carter. 1093 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:56,640 Speaker 1: He was, you know, you have the wrist injury last year. 1094 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 1: Took him a while to get back. He is also 1095 00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:02,360 Speaker 1: back in there. We've seen during training camp Dwayne Carter 1096 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:05,840 Speaker 1: and TJ. Sanders and of course a little bit of Walker. 1097 00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:09,319 Speaker 1: These guys are flashing once in a while. What are 1098 00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 1: your thoughts on Carter if any, Yeah. 1099 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:18,360 Speaker 4: Carter to me watching him come out of Duke, he 1100 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:22,279 Speaker 4: struck me as a solid, rotational type player, Steve, not 1101 00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:24,319 Speaker 4: a full time starter that you put out there for 1102 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:27,520 Speaker 4: sixty snaps, which obviously, on the Bills the way they're constructed, 1103 00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 4: he wouldn't be doing that anyway. But he struck me 1104 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:33,320 Speaker 4: no matter where, he would play as a rotational player 1105 00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:37,320 Speaker 4: and be a solid guy, probably not a true pass rusher, 1106 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:39,879 Speaker 4: but just one of those guys that I think every 1107 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:43,120 Speaker 4: defensive line needs to have, you know, just one of 1108 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 4: those solid, professional type players. That's the way he struck me, 1109 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:47,719 Speaker 4: all right. 1110 00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:52,359 Speaker 2: So offensive side of the ball, Tyrell Shavers is now 1111 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:55,160 Speaker 2: in his fourth season with the Bills. Three of them 1112 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 2: have been on the practice squad, although he got called 1113 00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:00,440 Speaker 2: up for a few games last year. Scored his first 1114 00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:06,040 Speaker 2: time touchdown, and it's interesting that he offers some different 1115 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:10,279 Speaker 2: kinds of skills to the receiving corps that they're not. 1116 00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:15,640 Speaker 2: They don't have in great numbers. I guess I'm getting 1117 00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:19,000 Speaker 2: at the size element here, because it's keyon Coleman, you know, 1118 00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:21,439 Speaker 2: and a bunch of guys you know that are six 1119 00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:24,959 Speaker 2: foot and under and Shavers is a legit six', four 1120 00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:27,160 Speaker 2: and we see him turn in a big play at 1121 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 2: the end of the. Half BUT i think he's sharpened 1122 00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:33,080 Speaker 2: up his route running and his release is off the. 1123 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 2: Line this. Year he looks even more consistent with that 1124 00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:38,319 Speaker 2: part of his game this. 1125 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:42,000 Speaker 4: Year, yeah, well it's funny you mentioned. That you, know 1126 00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 4: obviously he has, size and he has stride, length which 1127 00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:47,719 Speaker 4: certainly becomes a factor when he has free, access which 1128 00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 4: he had on that fifty eight yard reception that you. 1129 00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:52,600 Speaker 4: Mentioned and he actually ran a good route that was 1130 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 4: a deep, post But i'm sure you recall he used 1131 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:58,799 Speaker 4: his vertical or release to stem outside and he got 1132 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:01,719 Speaker 4: the corner turned and then he redirected inside with some. 1133 00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,680 Speaker 4: Juice there was also another play which was an. Incompletion 1134 00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:06,879 Speaker 4: is that it was actually a quick. HITCH i think 1135 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:08,759 Speaker 4: it was on the left side of the field WHERE 1136 00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:10,800 Speaker 4: i thought he did a really good job of getting 1137 00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:13,200 Speaker 4: off the line versus, press AND i thought he showed 1138 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:16,040 Speaker 4: some natural quickness for a man that. Size so it'll 1139 00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 4: be interesting to see how that plays. OUT i would Assume, 1140 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,240 Speaker 4: BROWNIE i don't know. THIS i don't study it because 1141 00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 4: he he plays on special, teams. 1142 00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 2: Right, yes he. 1143 00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 4: Does, Yeah, yeah SO i assume you know if he's 1144 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:30,400 Speaker 4: a good special teams, player and he can continue to 1145 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 4: show as a. RECEIVER i, mean if the season were to, 1146 00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:37,400 Speaker 4: start you, know truly start, tomorrow what the receivers would. 1147 00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:40,800 Speaker 4: Be it would Be, coleman it would Be, shakir it 1148 00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:45,040 Speaker 4: would Be, palmer, yep who would? Be who would? Be 1149 00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:46,200 Speaker 4: would it Be Curtis? 1150 00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 1: Samuel samuel he's, Healthier Elijah. 1151 00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:54,560 Speaker 4: Moore, interesting So. SHAVERS i, mean he would have a 1152 00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:56,840 Speaker 4: little bit of an uphill, Battle but it depends on 1153 00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:58,640 Speaker 4: how much of a core special teams player he. 1154 00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 1: Is and that's also. Too you got to other wide 1155 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:04,040 Speaker 1: receivers of, course special team as a return. Guys Leviscus, chanault. 1156 00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:05,560 Speaker 2: What are your? 1157 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:09,280 Speaker 4: Thoughts and HE'S i GUESS i was wrong on. HIM 1158 00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 4: i did him two years coming out Of, colorado AND 1159 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:16,240 Speaker 4: i really liked his. Tape now, AGAIN i guess teams 1160 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 4: didn't see him as a quote unquote true pure receiver 1161 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:22,040 Speaker 4: because they've never really lined him up that. WAY i 1162 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,360 Speaker 4: shouldn't say, never that's too strong a, word but it 1163 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:27,880 Speaker 4: seems like everybody you know trying to deal with him 1164 00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:30,120 Speaker 4: as a kind of almost a gimmick kind of, guy 1165 00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:33,959 Speaker 4: like move him. Around BUT i really liked him coming. 1166 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:36,320 Speaker 4: Out you, know Maybe i'll turn out to be wrong 1167 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:39,600 Speaker 4: up to this, POINT i certainly, am you, know but 1168 00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:43,520 Speaker 4: he's he's, big he's, physical he's got some some juice to. 1169 00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:46,280 Speaker 4: HIM i mean, this we're not talking about a guy 1170 00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:46,840 Speaker 4: that doesn't have. 1171 00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:52,080 Speaker 2: Traits, yeah AND i just was interested because he's been 1172 00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:55,400 Speaker 2: relatively quiet in training. Camp, now he missed the first 1173 00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:58,640 Speaker 2: few days because he was ON i can't even remember 1174 00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:01,720 Speaker 2: non football injury OR pu one of. Those so he 1175 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:05,400 Speaker 2: missed the first few days and didn't really flash at 1176 00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:07,680 Speaker 2: all in the first two weeks of. Camp then we 1177 00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:10,760 Speaker 2: get to this first preseason. Game he's used on kick, 1178 00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:16,800 Speaker 2: return punt, return punt coverage as a gunner two point conversion, 1179 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:19,360 Speaker 2: attempt and then he's utilized on the offense as a. 1180 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 2: RECEIVER i was just it was very interesting to see 1181 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 2: him used in the number of ways that they choose 1182 00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:29,480 Speaker 2: to deploy him in preseason game number, one despite missing 1183 00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:31,520 Speaker 2: three or four days at the start of. 1184 00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:35,360 Speaker 4: Camp, yeah and that's sort of been his whole career 1185 00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:38,160 Speaker 4: up to this. Point is he's never really been used 1186 00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:42,280 Speaker 4: as a, receiver you, know almost exclusively as a. Receiver 1187 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:45,240 Speaker 4: he's been used in so many other, ways AND i 1188 00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 4: guess that's the way the league saw him because he 1189 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:51,440 Speaker 4: just hasn't been used that. Way, so you, know BUT 1190 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:55,440 Speaker 4: i really liked his tape coming. Out, obviously even if 1191 00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:57,400 Speaker 4: he does make the, team it's not as if he's 1192 00:59:57,400 --> 01:00:00,240 Speaker 4: going to be a top three receiver within this, group 1193 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:02,680 Speaker 4: so you, know we'll see what would. Happen but if 1194 01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 4: they see him as a return guy and if he's 1195 01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:08,320 Speaker 4: really good as a gunner in, coverage then he has 1196 01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:10,160 Speaker 4: a chance to make, it you, know as a as 1197 01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:11,160 Speaker 4: a core special teams. 1198 01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 1: Player it could be that he's so such a versatile. 1199 01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:16,200 Speaker 1: Athlete i'm a return, guy a coverage, guy a wide, 1200 01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:22,400 Speaker 1: receiver slot, guy what have. You the problem is where 1201 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 1: do you where you going to give him most of his? 1202 01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 1: Snaps and if you start giving him snaps in one, 1203 01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:30,720 Speaker 1: spot the other four spots suffer because of. It brownie 1204 01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:33,800 Speaker 1: AND i even had the conversations he might be AND i, 1205 01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 1: think putting finger quotes, up he might be a. Gamer. 1206 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:40,760 Speaker 1: Uh he has not flashed in, practice, right but you. 1207 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:41,840 Speaker 2: Noticed him in the end and the. 1208 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:44,640 Speaker 1: Games the, guys you, know guys, everywhere SO i don't 1209 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:46,280 Speaker 1: he might be one of those guys that you never 1210 01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:49,200 Speaker 1: really get an sense of what he can do until 1211 01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:50,640 Speaker 1: they call on him in a. GAME i don't know 1212 01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:53,680 Speaker 1: what the what that, is but his versatility seems to 1213 01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:54,200 Speaker 1: be his greatest. 1214 01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 4: Asset, yeah and it's it's almost you, know a player 1215 01:00:57,880 --> 01:00:59,720 Speaker 4: like that in his in HIS nfl career has been 1216 01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:02,840 Speaker 4: Quote Aryl, patterson and you know who's always seems you 1217 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:04,800 Speaker 4: know he's gonna play ten twelve years in the, league 1218 01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 4: and he's had good. Moments but you, know Maybe chanol 1219 01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:09,760 Speaker 4: is going to turn out to be one of those. 1220 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:12,080 Speaker 4: Guys the problem with those guys is you have to 1221 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:14,400 Speaker 4: really have a sense of exactly how you're going to 1222 01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 4: deploy them because otherwise they don't make the team because 1223 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:19,920 Speaker 4: they're not really one position where you, say, hey this 1224 01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,000 Speaker 4: guy is this guy and this is where he's gonna. 1225 01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:24,720 Speaker 4: Play so you, know you have to figure out do 1226 01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:27,000 Speaker 4: you have a spot for that, Guy which is why 1227 01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:29,800 Speaker 4: the special teams, ELEMENT i, mean don't forget. Guys now 1228 01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 4: all of a sudden kickoff terms returns have become a 1229 01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 4: big deal again in the. League so that that is 1230 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:36,880 Speaker 4: you don't want to lose games because of. That. 1231 01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:41,000 Speaker 1: Yeah the story too is if you're if you're doing 1232 01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:44,480 Speaker 1: five different. Things you're the last guy at the position, 1233 01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,240 Speaker 1: Group you're the last wide receiver on the. Roster you're 1234 01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:50,160 Speaker 1: the last you're the kick, returner you're the punt. Returner 1235 01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:53,000 Speaker 1: you never see any down in distant snaps unless you're 1236 01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:55,080 Speaker 1: covering a punt or on the punt return. Team so 1237 01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:59,600 Speaker 1: it's your role is limited just because of the roster 1238 01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:03,200 Speaker 1: spot you've. TAKE i, mean is this? 1239 01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 4: Brownie does this come? Down AND i mean, again we 1240 01:02:05,720 --> 01:02:08,280 Speaker 4: still have more training camp in two preseason games to, 1241 01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:11,320 Speaker 4: go so we don't want to. Prejudge but do you 1242 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:14,920 Speaker 4: see it as potentially coming down to Between channaul And? Shavers? 1243 01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:17,479 Speaker 2: Uh if they only keep six. 1244 01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 1: Receivers, yes they've Got Brandon codrington as a return guy 1245 01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:25,000 Speaker 1: that he was very good last. Year But chinault is 1246 01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:31,160 Speaker 1: big and he'll break. Tackles, Ye codrington. Won't and a 1247 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:35,200 Speaker 1: bigger guy a lot of times equals durability as. Well 1248 01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:39,560 Speaker 1: and if you're getting more kickoff, Returns codrington is more at, 1249 01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:44,080 Speaker 1: risk maybe not as. Available but this is all. Conjecture 1250 01:02:44,080 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 1: you don't. KNOW i, mean the guy May coddrington may 1251 01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:49,840 Speaker 1: line up twenty weeks and never miss a. 1252 01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 2: Rep, yeah it's it's one of the more interesting questions 1253 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,560 Speaker 2: when they get down to roster numbers and have to 1254 01:02:57,560 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 2: make it fit and are you going to rob From 1255 01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:02,080 Speaker 2: peter To paul at one position to carry an extra 1256 01:03:02,120 --> 01:03:05,320 Speaker 2: guy in another. Position there there's gonna be some very hard. 1257 01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:07,480 Speaker 2: DECISIONS i think there's gonna be a lot of roster 1258 01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:11,120 Speaker 2: gymnastics by this coaching staff because there's a lot of 1259 01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:14,040 Speaker 2: people that can play in this league that are not 1260 01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:14,720 Speaker 2: going to be on this. 1261 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 4: ROSTER i think question for, you Who's Who's Keanta? Jenkins 1262 01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:20,920 Speaker 4: he showed up on this. 1263 01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,480 Speaker 1: Game, yeah we were talking about him today watching. 1264 01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:28,360 Speaker 2: Practice, yeah nice, player undrafted rookie out Of Virginia. Tech 1265 01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:31,760 Speaker 2: and he's impressed and he's leapfrog a couple of people 1266 01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:36,160 Speaker 2: on the depth, chart including last year's six round Pick Eddy. 1267 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:39,720 Speaker 2: Yulefotio But Shaq thompson has been out with a hamstring. 1268 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:42,320 Speaker 2: Injury bernard was just getting back from a hamstring. Injury 1269 01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:44,520 Speaker 2: they didn't want to play him in the, game and 1270 01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 2: he took advantage of. That he's been. Noticeable there was 1271 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:50,040 Speaker 2: a practice last week where he had an interception and 1272 01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:53,480 Speaker 2: a pass break up in the same. Practice so he 1273 01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:54,800 Speaker 2: has flashed. 1274 01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:58,320 Speaker 4: No and in the, game AND i thought he flashed 1275 01:03:58,320 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 4: in a good. Way in other, words he is at 1276 01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:03,200 Speaker 4: he's got. Burst BUT i thought he played with discipline 1277 01:04:03,200 --> 01:04:05,160 Speaker 4: in the run, game and that's what really stood out to. 1278 01:04:05,200 --> 01:04:07,360 Speaker 4: Me you, know there was one play in, particular it 1279 01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:09,360 Speaker 4: might have been early in the third quarter WHERE i 1280 01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:12,280 Speaker 4: thought he really played with excellent, discipline ended up making the. 1281 01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:16,920 Speaker 4: Tackle he was very, controlled he's, long he's. Lean look we, 1282 01:04:16,960 --> 01:04:19,640 Speaker 4: know and everybody's. Healthy Bernard malana will be the. Linebackers 1283 01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:22,400 Speaker 4: then it's a matter of who are the backup linebackers right. 1284 01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:25,200 Speaker 2: Now Jorian williams is just getting back from injury, too 1285 01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 2: so he's taken advantage of the extra reps that he's. 1286 01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:30,880 Speaker 2: Gotten let's go to the other linebacker, though because last 1287 01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:34,240 Speaker 2: year at this, Time Joe andreesen put on a performance 1288 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:37,840 Speaker 2: in a preseason game Against pittsburgh and essentially made the 1289 01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:42,200 Speaker 2: roster with that twelve tackle. Effort he's now running as 1290 01:04:42,240 --> 01:04:45,600 Speaker 2: the backup mike To Terrell, bernard and it looks like 1291 01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:47,360 Speaker 2: that's going to be his job when we get to 1292 01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:50,080 Speaker 2: the regular. Season outside of his duties on special, teams 1293 01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:54,080 Speaker 2: what can you say just about his instincts when defending the? 1294 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 2: Run because he seems to trigger and he is downhill. 1295 01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:00,640 Speaker 4: Fast, yeah that's his. GAME i, mean he's not a 1296 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,600 Speaker 4: pastor coveraged. Player you, know he's not, big but he 1297 01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:07,920 Speaker 4: plays with, physicality he plays with. Toughness he attacks. Downhill 1298 01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:11,960 Speaker 4: he for a smaller. Guy he takes on, blocks he 1299 01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:16,360 Speaker 4: stacks and. Sheds you, know he sees things, quickly triggers 1300 01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:18,360 Speaker 4: the right. Word he had that well timed run through 1301 01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:20,640 Speaker 4: shooting the gap late in the second. Quarter you, know 1302 01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:24,320 Speaker 4: that's the kind of player he. Is, now it's a small, 1303 01:05:24,360 --> 01:05:26,400 Speaker 4: sample AND i can't sit here and Say i've studied, 1304 01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:28,240 Speaker 4: him you, know in detail in the, past BECAUSE i have, 1305 01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:30,280 Speaker 4: Not So i'm not going to pretend THAT i. Have 1306 01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:33,800 Speaker 4: but it just struck me watching him that he's not 1307 01:05:34,440 --> 01:05:37,240 Speaker 4: doesn't have great awareness as a coverage. Player BUT i 1308 01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,120 Speaker 4: don't think that's the way they would see him. Anyway 1309 01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:41,560 Speaker 4: he you, know even if he, did let's Say bernard 1310 01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:44,120 Speaker 4: had to miss some some regular season games and they 1311 01:05:44,120 --> 01:05:46,960 Speaker 4: felt Like indresen was the, guy my guess is he 1312 01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:49,520 Speaker 4: wouldn't play on third. DOWN i don't think they see 1313 01:05:49,560 --> 01:05:51,320 Speaker 4: him that, way and that's not the strength of who he. 1314 01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:53,800 Speaker 1: Is i'm going to ask you to make a big 1315 01:05:53,800 --> 01:06:00,000 Speaker 1: assumption here and then answer this, question assuming That Joe 1316 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:03,720 Speaker 1: bosa stays completely healthy throughout the, season regular season and, 1317 01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 1: postseason how big a difference would he make to This bill's. 1318 01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:13,720 Speaker 4: Defense, well, PERSONALLY i would not play him as a regular. 1319 01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:16,280 Speaker 4: PLAYER i wouldn't play him fifty sixty STAPs a. GAME 1320 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:20,720 Speaker 4: i would play him, predominantly not one hundred, percent but 1321 01:06:20,760 --> 01:06:25,600 Speaker 4: predominantly in pure past type situations because he does have 1322 01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:29,760 Speaker 4: unfortunately a strong history of. Injury and the last thing you, 1323 01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:33,120 Speaker 4: want because he's so gifted and so talented as a pass, 1324 01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:36,080 Speaker 4: rusher that you want him to be able to play 1325 01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:38,840 Speaker 4: in those. Situations you, know all three of us know 1326 01:06:38,920 --> 01:06:41,920 Speaker 4: that last year the down four as a pass rushing 1327 01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:44,880 Speaker 4: unit did not do what this coaching staff wanted to 1328 01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:48,160 Speaker 4: get done on a weekly. Basis so you bring him 1329 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:51,880 Speaker 4: in to rush the. Quarterback so to, me you, KNOW 1330 01:06:52,080 --> 01:06:54,960 Speaker 4: i think he's he's a twenty to twenty five snap 1331 01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:57,440 Speaker 4: a week. Player maybe fans listening will, say oh my, 1332 01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:01,680 Speaker 4: god that's, crazy but you know you want. Availability you 1333 01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:04,440 Speaker 4: want him on the field for seventeen. Games you, know 1334 01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:06,720 Speaker 4: we're not trying to prove a point. Here you know 1335 01:07:06,920 --> 01:07:09,800 Speaker 4: they have a lot of defensive. Ends they drafted one 1336 01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:12,200 Speaker 4: In Landon. Jackson you, know they've got a bunch of 1337 01:07:12,240 --> 01:07:16,200 Speaker 4: guys to play defensive. END i would not Overuse Joey. 1338 01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:20,920 Speaker 2: Bosa run defense was a little bit of an issue 1339 01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:23,600 Speaker 2: last year for this football, team and it was one 1340 01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:26,479 Speaker 2: of the contributors to their struggles on third down last. Year, 1341 01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:31,440 Speaker 2: defensively what did you see from how the run defense 1342 01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:34,000 Speaker 2: Look taking into account, that you, know we've probably got 1343 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:35,200 Speaker 2: no game planning going on. 1344 01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:39,360 Speaker 4: Here oh, YEAH i, mean, look more than likely it's 1345 01:07:39,360 --> 01:07:41,680 Speaker 4: going to be the same guys playing. Roundie so it's 1346 01:07:41,720 --> 01:07:44,000 Speaker 4: just a matter of you, know and unless you're going 1347 01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:46,960 Speaker 4: to start playing with your scheme a little. Bit you, 1348 01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:50,280 Speaker 4: know in the, past this team has been predominantly an 1349 01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:54,600 Speaker 4: overfront defensive, line which means it's shifted to the strong 1350 01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:58,200 Speaker 4: side of the offensive. Formation you, know unless they're going 1351 01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:02,240 Speaker 4: to start making conceptual changes tactical. Changes it comes down 1352 01:08:02,280 --> 01:08:05,720 Speaker 4: to the. People you. Know, OBVIOUSLY i Assume oliver And 1353 01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:07,240 Speaker 4: jones would still be the starting d. 1354 01:08:07,360 --> 01:08:11,400 Speaker 2: Tackles, correct it's looking that way at this point in. 1355 01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:15,480 Speaker 4: Time, YEAH i Mean oliver for, SURE i mean he's you, 1356 01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:18,880 Speaker 4: know so you, know you've got to those guys have 1357 01:08:18,960 --> 01:08:21,439 Speaker 4: to win on the, inside you. KNOW i, think you, 1358 01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:24,200 Speaker 4: know keep one thing in. MIND i Think bernard And 1359 01:08:24,280 --> 01:08:28,240 Speaker 4: i'll And milano are really good football, players but they're 1360 01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:32,519 Speaker 4: not big by by linebacker. Standards now you have to, 1361 01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:35,599 Speaker 4: decide you, know if it's if you're playing a running 1362 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:37,559 Speaker 4: team and it's first and, ten you, know and you 1363 01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:40,320 Speaker 4: line up and you want to stop the. Run AND 1364 01:08:40,400 --> 01:08:43,000 Speaker 4: i think the staff probably has to think this through and, 1365 01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,720 Speaker 4: maybe you, know maybe they've decided. Already are those your 1366 01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 4: linebackers in those? Situations? Now i'm not suggesting they shouldn't 1367 01:08:48,880 --> 01:08:50,519 Speaker 4: play at. ALL i don't want people to think, that 1368 01:08:50,600 --> 01:08:52,960 Speaker 4: BUT i, mean you, know you're dealing With, bernard what 1369 01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:56,120 Speaker 4: is he maybe two twenty? Five And milano you know 1370 01:08:56,200 --> 01:08:58,280 Speaker 4: he was a safety really in, college AND i Love. 1371 01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:03,719 Speaker 2: Milano, yeah historically The bills have just put a third 1372 01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:08,000 Speaker 2: linebacker on the field and played base. Right WHAT i 1373 01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:11,120 Speaker 2: want to ask you because we keep hearing rumblings about 1374 01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:15,639 Speaker 2: this in light of the advance of the run game 1375 01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:19,479 Speaker 2: last year league, wide where more teams were, drifting you, 1376 01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:23,200 Speaker 2: know away from sixty percent pass and we're more fifty 1377 01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:26,400 Speaker 2: five forty, five and The bills were fifty one percent, 1378 01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:29,439 Speaker 2: run forty nine percent pass last, year and there were 1379 01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:32,600 Speaker 2: other teams in the general vicinity of. That do you 1380 01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:35,280 Speaker 2: think we're going to keep drifting in that direction and 1381 01:09:35,280 --> 01:09:38,280 Speaker 2: we're gonna see more twelve personnel and maybe less eleven 1382 01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:40,120 Speaker 2: personnel and more running of the. 1383 01:09:40,160 --> 01:09:44,200 Speaker 4: Football, yeah it's a great. Question and THEN i don't 1384 01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:46,760 Speaker 4: know if there's a specific you, know, Look i'm not 1385 01:09:46,760 --> 01:09:48,439 Speaker 4: going to sit here and, say you, KNOW i have the, 1386 01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:52,000 Speaker 4: answer you, know to that. Question but clearly there was 1387 01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:55,400 Speaker 4: more running in the league a year, ago you, know 1388 01:09:56,520 --> 01:09:59,280 Speaker 4: more and more twelve. PERSONNEL i, mean that's one thing 1389 01:09:59,360 --> 01:10:01,960 Speaker 4: we've seen more and more of the last couple of. 1390 01:10:02,040 --> 01:10:04,479 Speaker 4: Years you, know a lot of teams have played a 1391 01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:08,439 Speaker 4: ton more twelve personnel percentage. Wise so if you get more. Running, 1392 01:10:08,439 --> 01:10:10,879 Speaker 4: LOOK i, mean obviously they beat them in the, playoffs 1393 01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:12,840 Speaker 4: but they open With. Baltimore you, know you know you 1394 01:10:12,880 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 4: still Have Derrick. HENRY i, Mean lamar presents a whole different. 1395 01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:18,120 Speaker 4: Factor you know that that separates them from just a 1396 01:10:18,200 --> 01:10:21,160 Speaker 4: normal running. Team but you know you're gonna you're going 1397 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:23,800 Speaker 4: to play teams that run the, ball and you're gonna 1398 01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:26,040 Speaker 4: have to line up and you know you can talk 1399 01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:28,640 Speaker 4: about playing gaps and doing all the right things with, 1400 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:31,439 Speaker 4: discipline and obviously that's what you want to, do but 1401 01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:34,800 Speaker 4: they're you, know linebackers have to stack and. Shd linebackers 1402 01:10:34,840 --> 01:10:37,520 Speaker 4: have to play with. Physicality they've got to play, downhill 1403 01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:39,840 Speaker 4: they've got to use their arms and, hands and they've 1404 01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:42,640 Speaker 4: got to playoff blocks you can't just run through or 1405 01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,760 Speaker 4: you can't, avoid you. Know and defensive linemen have to 1406 01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:48,879 Speaker 4: control gaps or win in their. GAPS i, mean that's 1407 01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:51,760 Speaker 4: at some point it comes down to. That so the 1408 01:10:51,760 --> 01:10:54,519 Speaker 4: bottom line, is you, know that's what you have to 1409 01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:56,680 Speaker 4: be able to do to stop the running. Game you, 1410 01:10:56,720 --> 01:10:59,439 Speaker 4: know are there times that schematically you can do some, things, 1411 01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 4: yes but it's also mono against mono at times as. 1412 01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:06,760 Speaker 1: Well last one for, Me, Greg James cook's been a 1413 01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:09,360 Speaker 1: story here In buffalo because of his, contract AND i 1414 01:11:09,400 --> 01:11:11,000 Speaker 1: know you Don't we're not getting into any of that 1415 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:14,040 Speaker 1: stuff with.

Steve, 1422 01:11:33,120 --> 01:11:34,800 Speaker 4: YEAH i, MEAN i think you can run the. BALL 1423 01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:38,479 Speaker 4: i really Like Ray, davis AND i think if he 1424 01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:41,360 Speaker 4: were a quote unquote feature back in the context of The, 1425 01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:43,800 Speaker 4: BILLS i mean The bills, offenses AND i know the 1426 01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:46,240 Speaker 4: numbers were such as you, Said, brownie BUT i don't 1427 01:11:46,280 --> 01:11:48,400 Speaker 4: think that The bills offense is built on giving it 1428 01:11:48,439 --> 01:11:50,720 Speaker 4: to one guy three hundred and twenty, times even though 1429 01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:54,160 Speaker 4: they run the ball a. LOT i really Like, davis 1430 01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:56,880 Speaker 4: but they lose the explosive. ELEMENT i, mean how many 1431 01:11:56,920 --> 01:12:00,320 Speaker 4: times was it Against. Miami i'm trying to. Remember wasn't 1432 01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:01,800 Speaker 4: there that play where they got the ball and then 1433 01:12:01,800 --> 01:12:04,280 Speaker 4: he ran forty nine yards for a touchdown on the first? Play? 1434 01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:07,680 Speaker 1: Yeah or? Turnover the same thing happened Down, Yeah and 1435 01:12:07,720 --> 01:12:09,880 Speaker 1: the same thing happened in The San francisco snow. Game 1436 01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:12,160 Speaker 1: they got the ball back after a score and he 1437 01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:14,920 Speaker 1: snapped off a sixty five yard or one play. 1438 01:12:14,760 --> 01:12:16,679 Speaker 2: Four touchdowns over forty yards last. 1439 01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:20,439 Speaker 4: Year, yeah that's what you. LOSE i, mean you, know 1440 01:12:20,720 --> 01:12:22,880 Speaker 4: AND i think that that's a critical. PIECE i, mean 1441 01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:25,080 Speaker 4: when you have a back that can do, THAT i 1442 01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:28,679 Speaker 4: think that changes the calculus for you, know not only 1443 01:12:28,680 --> 01:12:32,080 Speaker 4: for your, offense but for defenses as. Well you know, That, 1444 01:12:32,160 --> 01:12:33,880 Speaker 4: STEVE i mean you played with. ONE i mean when 1445 01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:36,360 Speaker 4: that guy can go fifty sixty yards for a, touchdown 1446 01:12:36,600 --> 01:12:37,280 Speaker 4: it changes the. 1447 01:12:37,320 --> 01:12:37,599 Speaker 1: Game. 1448 01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:42,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, greg thanks as, always good to have you back with. 1449 01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:46,759 Speaker 2: Us we look forward to our future conversations this.

Advance And i'm just 1456 01:13:07,880 --> 01:13:12,639 Speaker 2: wondering where the tipping point is where defenses go back 1457 01:13:12,680 --> 01:13:15,879 Speaker 2: to just playing base with three. Linebackers where is the tipping? 1458 01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:18,360 Speaker 2: Point it won't be every, week but where is the 1459 01:13:18,400 --> 01:13:21,000 Speaker 2: tipping point where all of a, sudden That nickel corners 1460 01:13:21,120 --> 01:13:25,840 Speaker 2: off the field now on first down or SECOND. 1461 01:13:25,560 --> 01:13:27,320 Speaker 1: I think it's a really interesting question BECAUSE i think 1462 01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:29,639 Speaker 1: there will be always be some. TEAMS i think it's 1463 01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:31,360 Speaker 1: GONNA i don't think the pingein is going to swing 1464 01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:32,880 Speaker 1: all the way back to where it was in the nineteen. 1465 01:13:33,400 --> 01:13:37,240 Speaker 1: Nineties no where you're handing it off To thurman on 1466 01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:38,920 Speaker 1: first second, down if you get a first if you 1467 01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:41,120 Speaker 1: get a first down on second, down you're handing it 1468 01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:44,880 Speaker 1: to them. Again. RIGHT i don't think those days are coming, 1469 01:13:44,920 --> 01:13:47,200 Speaker 1: back BUT i do think they will for some, teams 1470 01:13:47,680 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 1: because they'll be good enough in those areas to kind 1471 01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:54,360 Speaker 1: of hammer it a little. Bit other teams will be you, 1472 01:13:54,400 --> 01:13:56,920 Speaker 1: know three, wides let's, go you're gonna have to play 1473 01:13:57,000 --> 01:14:00,800 Speaker 1: nickel against. Them the problem is going to be this 1474 01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:03,400 Speaker 1: and this is why that, team that ninety team With 1475 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:06,920 Speaker 1: kelly And, thurmovies they'd go three, wide one back and 1476 01:14:06,960 --> 01:14:10,519 Speaker 1: a tight. End they're still running the. Ball you got 1477 01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:13,720 Speaker 1: to you gotta bear. Up that's a problem for. Defenses 1478 01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:17,160 Speaker 1: so and NOW i think the Pens i'm swinging back more. 1479 01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:19,479 Speaker 1: Traditional you're getting bigger guys on the field. Too tight. 1480 01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:22,840 Speaker 1: End like you, said twelve personnel. Fullback we were talking 1481 01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:27,360 Speaker 1: About Alec. Anderson Alec anderson And Gillian Reggie. Gillen they 1482 01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:29,640 Speaker 1: played a lot of eye and offset eye late in 1483 01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:32,920 Speaker 1: the season last. Year so offenses are putting bigger guys 1484 01:14:32,960 --> 01:14:35,559 Speaker 1: on the field because the, defense even if they put 1485 01:14:35,560 --> 01:14:39,040 Speaker 1: two three linebackers out, there two of them are safety, sized, 1486 01:14:39,760 --> 01:14:42,960 Speaker 1: Right SO i think we're getting into a little bit 1487 01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:45,439 Speaker 1: of a gray. Area and it really is a huge 1488 01:14:45,479 --> 01:14:49,360 Speaker 1: week by week roster analysis as to what you're going 1489 01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:51,000 Speaker 1: to do against that, defense. 1490 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:53,400 Speaker 2: And by and in turn a play calling analysis, too 1491 01:14:53,520 --> 01:14:56,040 Speaker 2: because it's not just what personnel are you putting on the, 1492 01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:58,800 Speaker 2: field how are you calling? It how are you deploying 1493 01:14:58,840 --> 01:15:01,600 Speaker 2: that personnel to has to defend whatever that offense is. 1494 01:15:01,640 --> 01:15:03,960 Speaker 1: Thrown its gonna be if you can throw the ball 1495 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:07,280 Speaker 1: every down out of big people and be, successful that's 1496 01:15:07,280 --> 01:15:07,639 Speaker 1: a real. 1497 01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:11,519 Speaker 2: Problem gotta take a break.

Game 1647 01:22:13,240 --> 01:22:15,120 Speaker 2: SO i think with where he is, AT i think 1648 01:22:15,160 --> 01:22:17,960 Speaker 2: where he feels he is at in this offense and 1649 01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:20,400 Speaker 2: the passing game in particular timing and things of that. 1650 01:22:20,520 --> 01:22:24,120 Speaker 2: Nature it's clear that he feels very comfortable with that. 1651 01:22:24,600 --> 01:22:27,320 Speaker 2: Now coach McDermott was asked today and he, said we 1652 01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:29,559 Speaker 2: haven't figured that out yet as to Whether josh will 1653 01:22:29,600 --> 01:22:32,559 Speaker 2: play in this week's preseason Game sunday night at eight 1654 01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:33,360 Speaker 2: o'clock against The. 1655 01:22:33,360 --> 01:22:38,160 Speaker 1: Bears that's really the for me from the outs from 1656 01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:40,800 Speaker 1: our spot looking at and my experience tells me the 1657 01:22:40,840 --> 01:22:43,080 Speaker 1: only Thing josh really would want to play for us 1658 01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:46,320 Speaker 1: to get reps with new. Guys he doesn't need the offensive, 1659 01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:48,360 Speaker 1: reps he doesn't need the concept, where he doesn't need 1660 01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:51,599 Speaker 1: the practice reading. Defenses he wants to go live rep 1661 01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:54,720 Speaker 1: against somebody. Else with the new. Guys we can, see all, 1662 01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:57,599 Speaker 1: right if this is really where we're, at get that's. 1663 01:22:57,439 --> 01:22:59,240 Speaker 2: It and he may get some of that in the 1664 01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:03,800 Speaker 2: joint Press, friday where he's in a more protected situation 1665 01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:07,360 Speaker 2: because the quarterbacks will be wearing red. Jerseys nobody touched the, 1666 01:23:07,439 --> 01:23:10,120 Speaker 2: quarterbacks et, cetera et, cetera et. Cetera so it's a 1667 01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:14,320 Speaker 2: more controlled environment than a preseason. Game so exactly, RIGHT 1668 01:23:14,320 --> 01:23:19,240 Speaker 2: i wouldn't SO i THINK i kind of wonder will 1669 01:23:19,280 --> 01:23:22,559 Speaker 2: coach McDermott not make that determination until they get through 1670 01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:25,519 Speaker 2: that joint practice and maybe huddle Up friday night make 1671 01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:28,160 Speaker 2: a decision as to whether or Not josh is gonna 1672 01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:31,240 Speaker 2: play On Sunday nights, game because if they feel they 1673 01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:35,880 Speaker 2: got really good Work friday in the joint, practice and you, 1674 01:23:35,880 --> 01:23:38,920 Speaker 2: Know josh is not in, danger you, know of getting 1675 01:23:39,040 --> 01:23:42,280 Speaker 2: rolled into by a, defense you know people are obviously 1676 01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:44,880 Speaker 2: A Chicago bears defensive lineman isn't going to be as 1677 01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:47,680 Speaker 2: careful pass Rushing Josh allen as he would be With 1678 01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:51,120 Speaker 2: Caleb williams in a team. Practice it's still a, better 1679 01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:54,479 Speaker 2: more controlled environment than a preseason game where all bets are. 1680 01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:57,200 Speaker 2: Off so if they feel they get the work done 1681 01:23:57,240 --> 01:24:00,320 Speaker 2: they need To, friday he's not playing On. 1682 01:24:00,400 --> 01:24:04,720 Speaker 1: Sunday and that's exactly. Right And i'll bet you that's 1683 01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:07,679 Speaker 1: the planet get let's get draw some reps in, practice 1684 01:24:07,720 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 1: let's see what he looks, like and then you know 1685 01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:11,400 Speaker 1: what he looks. Good he didn't play in this, Game 1686 01:24:11,479 --> 01:24:12,519 Speaker 1: yeah he's, not and we'll give. 1687 01:24:12,439 --> 01:24:16,639 Speaker 2: It which would then probably mean in the third, game 1688 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:19,640 Speaker 2: maybe a series he'll get because now you're close to 1689 01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:20,880 Speaker 2: the regular, season. 1690 01:24:20,600 --> 01:24:22,640 Speaker 1: He'll get ten snaps in The tampa. Game we'll call. 1691 01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:26,120 Speaker 2: IT i, mean how we've watched it over the years With, 1692 01:24:26,240 --> 01:24:30,599 Speaker 2: josh at least the last couple, anyway is he gets 1693 01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:34,559 Speaker 2: like six to eight snaps in the first game plays 1694 01:24:34,640 --> 01:24:37,679 Speaker 2: his since it's gone to a three game, preseason second 1695 01:24:37,680 --> 01:24:39,720 Speaker 2: game is when he plays the, most sometimes up to a, 1696 01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:43,479 Speaker 2: half and then he'll play a series in the third, 1697 01:24:43,479 --> 01:24:47,120 Speaker 2: game if at, all and then that's. It AND i 1698 01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:50,559 Speaker 2: feel like WE'RE i feel like we've moved away from 1699 01:24:50,640 --> 01:24:54,600 Speaker 2: that regiment because last year he played eight snaps in 1700 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:57,960 Speaker 2: the first preseason, game didn't see the field last, week 1701 01:24:58,640 --> 01:25:01,400 Speaker 2: and now it's undetermined as to whether he's going to 1702 01:25:01,439 --> 01:25:04,599 Speaker 2: see the field this. Week SO i think the regimen 1703 01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:08,000 Speaker 2: and the the mo for the reps that he's gonna 1704 01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:12,840 Speaker 2: get in the preseason have. Changed to what degree we'll 1705 01:25:12,880 --> 01:25:13,360 Speaker 2: have to wait and. 1706 01:25:13,360 --> 01:25:16,360 Speaker 1: See, YEAH i think that makes a lot of. Sense 1707 01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:18,200 Speaker 1: they probably looked at this and, said all, right, three 1708 01:25:18,280 --> 01:25:20,960 Speaker 1: we got two on the. Road you know it might 1709 01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:23,040 Speaker 1: and they might. Have they might have done, this, said, 1710 01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:24,760 Speaker 1: listen we should reach out to The bears if we 1711 01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:26,720 Speaker 1: can get a couple of days of joint, practices but 1712 01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:29,920 Speaker 1: let's not Play josh in that second. Game that may 1713 01:25:30,080 --> 01:25:34,360 Speaker 1: that may have been the plan from the. Outset you 1714 01:25:34,520 --> 01:25:38,519 Speaker 1: do want him to get some reps against somebody else without, 1715 01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:42,400 Speaker 1: them without you knowing their guys and they're all that. Stuff, 1716 01:25:43,080 --> 01:25:45,840 Speaker 1: Uh and you can do that in. Practice i'm sure 1717 01:25:45,880 --> 01:25:48,080 Speaker 1: they'll structure it in such a way as to make 1718 01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:50,639 Speaker 1: it as realistic as possible without Putting josh At risky 1719 01:25:50,680 --> 01:25:53,519 Speaker 1: will Say, okay we're, good and then the last preseason 1720 01:25:53,560 --> 01:25:55,320 Speaker 1: game can be whatever you want it to, be whether 1721 01:25:55,320 --> 01:25:58,840 Speaker 1: he plays it down or. NOT i think that's a 1722 01:25:58,880 --> 01:26:02,320 Speaker 1: great plan, because as you're, right you can get good 1723 01:26:02,360 --> 01:26:05,919 Speaker 1: reps in practice against another team without putting your quarterback 1724 01:26:05,920 --> 01:26:08,160 Speaker 1: at risk and get him a little something out of 1725 01:26:08,160 --> 01:26:11,439 Speaker 1: it as. Well that makes a lot of sense to. 1726 01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:11,559 Speaker 7: Me. 1727 01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:15,800 Speaker 2: Now at the same, time last, year The bills had 1728 01:26:15,800 --> 01:26:20,679 Speaker 2: a joint practice against The, steelers And josh did play 1729 01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:22,800 Speaker 2: in the preseason game a couple of days. 1730 01:26:22,880 --> 01:26:25,000 Speaker 1: Later they got lumped up in that preseason guess they. 1731 01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:31,799 Speaker 2: Did so it looks and feels different this year for whatever. 1732 01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:34,280 Speaker 2: REASON i, mean he's at a stage now where he 1733 01:26:34,360 --> 01:26:36,960 Speaker 2: has full command of this. Offense it hasn't changed to 1734 01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:37,840 Speaker 2: any great. 1735 01:26:37,960 --> 01:26:41,080 Speaker 1: Degree, yeah it's his, offense, Right. 1736 01:26:41,520 --> 01:26:44,880 Speaker 2: SO i think that's where most of this decision making. 1737 01:26:44,920 --> 01:26:47,639 Speaker 2: Lies got to take a break here back with one 1738 01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:50,240 Speaker 2: more segment to wrap things up and take a look 1739 01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:53,400 Speaker 2: towards tomorrow where we have another exciting show coming your. 1740 01:26:53,439 --> 01:26:55,000 Speaker 2: Way we'll do that next.

Team but here's the other, thing 1773 01:28:36,200 --> 01:28:36,640 Speaker 1: get back at. 1774 01:28:36,640 --> 01:28:41,040 Speaker 2: It here's the other Thing i'm wondering. About because The, 1775 01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:44,280 Speaker 2: bears who have also played a preseason, game have also 1776 01:28:44,400 --> 01:28:46,840 Speaker 2: already had one joint. Practice they had it with The 1777 01:28:46,880 --> 01:28:50,719 Speaker 2: dolphins last, week so they're going to be like already 1778 01:28:50,760 --> 01:28:53,880 Speaker 2: in that, mode or at least very familiar with what 1779 01:28:53,960 --> 01:28:56,280 Speaker 2: that mode, is just having done it last. 1780 01:28:56,280 --> 01:28:59,400 Speaker 1: Week this is going to be new territory for The. 1781 01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:02,040 Speaker 1: BILLS i don't care about The. Bears it's about, us 1782 01:29:02,120 --> 01:29:04,160 Speaker 1: you know WHAT i? Mean, well, right those guys Can, 1783 01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:06,000 Speaker 1: yeah this is routine for. Us we're gonna be. Good 1784 01:29:06,040 --> 01:29:10,200 Speaker 1: and then who. Cares this is about Our it's about our, team, 1785 01:29:10,400 --> 01:29:14,519 Speaker 1: Right so we'll go in and they'll get through it. 1786 01:29:14,600 --> 01:29:18,719 Speaker 1: Fine if it's normal to The, bears that's. Fine they 1787 01:29:18,840 --> 01:29:20,840 Speaker 1: they may look. Better i'm not worried about what The 1788 01:29:20,840 --> 01:29:22,760 Speaker 1: bears look. Like i'm worried about how we.
