1
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: At a Steve Tasker who has been all over the fields,

2
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role

3
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: player for you, state Steve a blimp. We're not even

4
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: in the strated here of normalcy here, all right, let's

5
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: get it rolling here on a Tuesday, Chris Brown Maddie

6
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: Glabin for Steve Tasker, as we begin to turn the

7
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 1: page on week three and open up chapter four, Week

8
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: four of the NFL season, which, man, this is not

9
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: looking like a very competitive game, at least the oddsmakers

10
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: don't think it will be. And when you have to

11
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 1: start a third string quarterback like the Houston Texans, do

12
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 1: you kind of understand why the point spread is what

13
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: the point spread is seventeen to seventeen and a half,

14
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: depending on which oddsmaker you're looking at. But Maddie, these

15
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 1: are the games that used to concern me a great deal.

16
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: They concern me a little less nowadays because I think

17
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: we feel confident that coach McDermott is such a sweater

18
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:19,759
Speaker 1: of the details that he's not gonna let these guys

19
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: for a second. Not that many of them would anyway,

20
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: but kind of play down to your level of competition,

21
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: which is something you want to avoid at all costs

22
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: in a league like this. Yeah, I think Sean McDermott

23
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: is just too good of a coach to let his

24
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 1: team look forward to the big Week five that we're

25
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: already talking about and probably we'll talk about in the

26
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: show today as we go on throughout the week, just

27
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: because it's the Kansas City Chiefs and that's a big

28
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: game for the Buffalo Bills. But first they have the

29
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: Houston Texans, and we all hear it from the coaching

30
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: staff and the players. It's a game to game, week

31
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: to week league, and anybody can show up any day

32
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: and perform pretty well. So even if the point differentialize

33
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: the spread is what it is, this team's not going

34
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: to let that get to their head. Yeah, Monday night

35
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: game last night, Mattie, I don't know how much of

36
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: that you caught, but it looked like the Cowboys went

37
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: back to the old Zeke days. I mean, they were

38
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: running the heck out of the ball, especially in the

39
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: first half. It's funny. I'm watching the game with my

40
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 1: son and he's got like Miles Sanders, and I think

41
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: he had one other Eagles player and he was still

42
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: finishing his homework and He's like, hey, as Miles Sanders

43
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: doing anything. I said, I hadn't even seen the Eagles

44
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: with the ball yet. I was watching the game for

45
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,959
Speaker 1: about twenty five minutes. I'm like, holy cow, the Eagles

46
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: haven't touched the football. I think it was There was

47
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: a spot in the first half where the Cowboys were

48
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: lining up to run their thirty fourth play of the

49
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 1: game and the Eagles had run nine plays on offense

50
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 1: thirty four plays to nine. Incredible. The Dallas Cowboys had

51
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: seventy one plays on offense, which is a pretty big number.

52
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: And also shout out to Treyvon Diggs Stefan Diggs's brother

53
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 1: for housing and interception taking a fifty nine yards. I

54
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: heard that he's going to try and start a little

55
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: wager maybe with his brother, for who can score the

56
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: most touchdowns this season in one of my leagues, and

57
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: so I was happy to see him get three touchdowns

58
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: rack up the score for my fantasy leagues because I

59
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: went three oh this weekend. Now does Treyvon? Does Trayvon

60
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: Diggs have three touchdowns? Now? Is that right? Does he

61
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: have on the season? I think it's three. I gotta check.

62
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: I will check that in the next break back that

63
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: I heard it somewhere. I think it was Sports Center,

64
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: and I thought I heard they said he had three

65
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: now in three games, which is that's pretty crazy, So

66
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,119
Speaker 1: I gotta double check that it's definitely at least two,

67
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: but it might be three in three games, which is,

68
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:16,359
Speaker 1: as we know, more than Stefan has right now. So

69
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: Stefan has won from the Miami game. But that's it,

70
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 1: I believe. So yeah, that would be an interesting competition,

71
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: to say the least, especially if Treyvon can hang with him,

72
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: knowing he touches the football far less than his older

73
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 1: brother does. But kind of a cool little thing going

74
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: on there. Did you watch Manning cast, Maddie? I did

75
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: watch Manning cast. That's the only thing I had on

76
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: last night was the Manning cast never switched over to

77
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: the actual game, and so I got to hear them

78
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: talk to who was on, Matt Stafford, Nick Saban, so

79
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: some pretty entertaining parts I was not watching. I had

80
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: gone to bed by the time that Eli flipp the

81
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 1: birds to the Yeah broadcast. Apparently Eli and Peyton are

82
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: still learning about the magic of live television. He just

83
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: threw up a couple of birds for I guess what

84
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 1: equated to his description of Eagles fans. And he's looking

85
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: at the cameraman, who I'm guessing is in his house.

86
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a director of sorts in

87
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: the house with him kind of helping him out. He's like, well,

88
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: you can blur that out right, And just like, this

89
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: is live television, Eli, you can't expect these guys to

90
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 1: just at a moment's notice cover up your two middle fingers.

91
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: What are you doing? So yeah, he has since apologized

92
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: from what I understand, But yeah, I mean even the network.

93
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: I mean, the network producers are good, but they're not

94
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: that good. I can't imagine what the control looked like

95
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 1: that was running that broadcast, Like what is he doing?

96
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: Oh my god? Like that's the last thing you'd expect

97
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 1: from the Manning brothers, you know what I mean. Yeah,

98
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: And of course it was Peyton Manny who was egging

99
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 1: Eli On to like flip his fingers to the camera

100
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: because he was like, oh, yeah, we're walking in the

101
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: game and people are flipping us off and blah blah blah,

102
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: and Peyton's like, do it, do it? Oh? Man? I

103
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: always blaming the older brother, right, And then there was

104
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 1: a funny part at the beginning of the broadcast. So

105
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: Peyton puts his hands on his head because he can't

106
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 1: believe the throw that Jalen hurts through early in the

107
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: game when it was a pick at the goal line,

108
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 1: and he puts his hands on his head, and unfortunately

109
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: for him, they ran it on replay and he had

110
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: a giant pits staying under his right arm, and of

111
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: course Eli went to town on him for that. He's

112
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 1: just like, what what are you sweating? What's going on

113
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: over there? What do you got the sauna jacked up

114
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,479
Speaker 1: in your man cave? What's happening? He goes, I got

115
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: a quarter zip on here, and I'm cool as a

116
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: que cover. All you got on is a plaid shure

117
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: And he's like, yeah, well, I mean he didn't have

118
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: anything to say. What do you say to that, Like,

119
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 1: you've been caught dead to rights on national television. The

120
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: giant pitch stain under your arm. God, that's embarrassing. So

121
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: he just kind of let it go by the board

122
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: without saying anything else. So that's probably the most entertaining

123
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 1: part of manning cast. Just those two guys busted on

124
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: each other for the better part of three hours. The

125
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: only thing I was disappointed in, Maddie was the fact

126
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: that we are not going to get Manning cast for

127
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: the Bills Monday night game. They don't come back until

128
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: I think week seven. Now they did the first three weeks,

129
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: and now they don't come back till week seven, which

130
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: is after the Bills game. I would have liked to

131
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: have it for a Monday night football game for the

132
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. It's a game that I would definitely watch

133
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: back if we had the Manning cast. I think also

134
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: at one point in the beginning of the game, Eli

135
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: was showcasing what he could do with his hips, showing

136
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: the torque that Jack Prescott does to warm up before games,

137
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: and Eli said, Peyton, my hips don't lie. Yeah, well

138
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: he thought it his hips were better than Shakira is.

139
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: I would respectfully disagree, yes and yeah, And then Peyton

140
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: started making fun of him. He said, you don't have

141
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 1: as much torque as Dak. He was flipping the hip

142
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: though it was pretty good. That was that was more

143
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: flexibility than I was anticipating for me. Eli on that

144
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: so that he did a good job. It is I

145
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: gotta say it is. It is wildly entertaining, and it's

146
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: like you're sitting watching a game with guys that know

147
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 1: everything that's going on and can suggest things in game situations,

148
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: like he's Peyton was all over Mike McCarthy for not

149
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 1: calling a time out at the end of the first

150
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: half when it looked like they were going to be

151
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: getting the ball back, you know, a chance to put

152
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: more points on the board, and he's like, why is

153
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: he not calling time out? What is going on? I mean,

154
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: he's turned into a full blown armchair quarterback and we're

155
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 1: all there to see it. It's it's glorious. I'll watch

156
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: it every every time they're on. Yeah, I forgot, but

157
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: Lebron James came on too, and yeah I saw that.

158
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: I remember they were teeing up Lebron. So they were like, okay, Lebron,

159
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: what place should happen next? And they were getting ready

160
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: to score. The Dallas Cowboys wore I don't know what

161
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: it was, second and goal, third and goals, something like that,

162
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: and Lebron was like, they should just redo what they

163
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: did a couple downs ago. I think that will work,

164
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: And sure enough, Dallas Cowboys running into the end zone.

165
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: And then they asked Lebron to like break down the play,

166
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: and he actually did a pretty good job. He was like,

167
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: there's only this many linebackers on the field, three defensive lineman,

168
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 1: so of course you know it was going to work

169
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: out for run play there right into the end zone.

170
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: I was like, impressive, not bad, not bad. Yeah. Yeah,

171
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: and they and of course the producers had his high

172
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 1: school football highlights at the rating they were running those

173
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 1: over and over. I mean, he looked like a man

174
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: amongst boys, which I guess you would expect because I

175
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: think he was like six six in high school, as

176
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 1: like a sophomore in a junior before shooting up to

177
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: sixty eight. But yeah, it's it's really good. I think

178
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: they do a nice job with that. I mean, just

179
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 1: got to get Eli up to speed on what they

180
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: can and cannot do on live television. That's probably the

181
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 1: only hitch there. As far as some other NFL news

182
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: and notes, the war, I don't know if I call

183
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: it a war of words, but the differing opinions as

184
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 1: to how everything went down in New England when Tom

185
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 1: Brady was shown the door. There are several different stories.

186
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 1: The truth is probably somewhere in between, but the Patriots,

187
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: and Belichick insists, you know, we did not force him out.

188
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: He wanted to leave. You know, Brady indicated they didn't

189
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 1: want to resign him. It's naturally the media is blowing

190
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: it up to high heaven in New England as we

191
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,199
Speaker 1: get set for the Brady homecoming game this Sunday, when

192
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: the Bucks go up to New England to play the Patriots.

193
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 1: And I I don't know if I would ever be

194
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: a bigger Bucks fan than I would be this week.

195
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: I'd be more than happy to see forty to ten

196
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: and watch Bill Belichick throw another telephone so Brady can

197
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: pour it on. As far as I'm concerned, just never

198
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: take your foot off the gas. Keep scoring touchdowns. And

199
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,959
Speaker 1: you gotta expect, Maddie that the Bucks are going to

200
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 1: be a little sore after last week's game out in LA,

201
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 1: which they lost by ten to the Rams. They're gonna

202
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 1: be looking to get back on the winning track here.

203
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: And I saw this stat. I want to say it

204
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,839
Speaker 1: was like two weeks ago, and I'm probably gonna get

205
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: it wrong, but I know I'm at least close on this.

206
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: I believe Tom Brady has lost more than two games,

207
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: has lost two games in a row six times in

208
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: his twenty year career, which is insane. That's like otherworldly.

209
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: So the odds of him going into New England and

210
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: losing that game, I think are slim to begin with.

211
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 1: You add on the fact that they lost last week

212
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: and you know they want to get back on track,

213
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: and then obviously they have a much more complete roster

214
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 1: than New England does. Right now, I don't know why,

215
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 1: you know what, I haven't looked at the spread, but

216
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 1: you got to think that the Bucks are gonna win that.

217
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,599
Speaker 1: I mean, Belichick's defense might keep him in it for

218
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 1: a little while, but I kind of see the Bucks

219
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 1: pulling away there, do you. Yeah, I don't think it's

220
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: really going to be much of the game, Like you said,

221
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 1: maybe at the beginning when the Patriots defense is doing

222
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 1: Patriots defense things, because Bill Belichick is going to be

223
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: able to at least scheme a decent game against this

224
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: Bucks offense that returns all of their starters from last year.

225
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: But I think just with what this game means to

226
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, it's going to mean a lot to his

227
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 1: entire team, and his teammates are going to want to

228
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 1: go out there and fight for him and lay it

229
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: on even more like the Buffalo Bills have done for

230
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: any situation or scenario when a player goes back to

231
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,679
Speaker 1: play their old team. So I think with that to

232
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: be added factor of just wanting to, you know, kick

233
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 1: butt against your former team. And I don't think Tom

234
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 1: is going to let any of the mental side of

235
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: things get in his way. I think he said this

236
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 1: is this is not a time to reflect as I'm

237
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: going to play the Patriots, not a time to reflect

238
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: on my career or what I did with the Patriots

239
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 1: or where I'm at now. So I don't see this

240
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: matchup really phasing him at all. I see the Buccaneers

241
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: doing everything they can to make the Patriots look silly. Yeah,

242
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: Patriots are six point underdogs at home on Sunday against

243
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: the Bucks over unders at forty nine and a half.

244
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: So I'd be happy with, you know, forty six to two,

245
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 1: stay right under the under there and just give the

246
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: Patriots a safety in the game. That would be totally

247
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: fine by me. I love to see a blowout victory

248
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: by Tampa Bay in that one. Josh Gordon looks like

249
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 1: he's going to sign with the Chiefs. I don't even

250
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: I understand the players Association as to support opportunity for

251
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: any of their players. But when you've been suspended six times,

252
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: like how many strikes do you get here? I mean,

253
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm a little conflicted with this, and

254
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 1: I wonder this is the first thing I tweeted after

255
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 1: I saw this yesterday. First question for me was do

256
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: you think he'll be up to speed enough to get

257
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 1: on the field against the Bills in two weeks? That

258
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: is the question. Yeah, that'll be interesting to see if

259
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 1: they want to deploy him in that game. I mean,

260
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 1: I would think if he is ready to do even

261
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: the smallest thing that's going to make it harder for

262
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: the Bills defense, that they would definitely want to put

263
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: him out there, even if it's just for a couple

264
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: of snaps in different types of down in distant situations

265
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: where they can really use his strength to get a

266
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: first down or touchdown or whatever it may be. But

267
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: I think with where the Chiefs are at now, with

268
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: two losses, they're gonna be wanting to do anything and

269
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 1: everything they can do to put themselves in a position

270
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: to win, or to get ahead in a game, or

271
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: to extend their lead. And so if Josh Gordon can

272
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: help them do that. I think they're going to throw

273
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 1: them out there pretty early. Yeah, And the only other

274
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: NFL news and note that we wanted to get to

275
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: was Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack, who missed all

276
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: of last season with an achilles injury. Is healthy now,

277
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: but he can't get on the field because of their

278
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 1: draft choice from a year ago, Jonathan Taylor, and their

279
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: pass catching third down back Naheim Hines. So those two

280
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: guys are getting the bulk of the playing time and

281
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 1: Marlon Mack has requested a trade. The Colts, according to reports,

282
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 1: have agreed that they will mutually pursue a trade of

283
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: the running back. So it looks like Marlon Mack will

284
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: soon beyond the move and traded by the Colts, to

285
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: whom remains to be seen. I don't know about you, Maddie,

286
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 1: but I haven't seen any potential options that have been

287
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: floated out there by some of the national reporters, so

288
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 1: this has to be probably in the very early stages. Yeah.

289
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: I'm squirreling on Twitter now to see if there's anything

290
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: updated about this, but I don't really see any reporters.

291
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: It's just more just fans saying Marlon Max should go

292
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: to my team. Yeah, So we'll see where that goes

293
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: in the coming days and probably weeks. Somebody has an

294
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: injury at running back, bang, suddenly somebody will be interested.

295
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: So we'll have to see where that goes going forward.

296
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: He was a productive back when he was one of

297
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 1: the primary guys there, so be interesting to see what

298
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: he can offer coming off that Achilles injury, although all

299
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: indications are he is one hundred percent healthy. Wanted to

300
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: get into our Twitter conversation today, and now with three

301
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 1: games played across the league, things are kind of settling

302
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: out a little bit. Who do we believe is the

303
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 1: biggest challenger to the Bills in the AFC conference race

304
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 1: through three weeks. We still have some undefeated teams in

305
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,959
Speaker 1: this conference. We have some perennial favorites who have stubbed

306
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: their toes a little bit. So where does the landscape

307
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: of the AFC point you in terms of who figures

308
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 1: to be the biggest challenger for the Bills in the

309
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 1: AFC Eight oh three five fifty one eight eight five

310
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 1: fifty two, five fifty the number get on board. You

311
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: got an open line for you there, or you can

312
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 1: hit us up on the tweet sheet at one Bills

313
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 1: Live Maddie at first Blush, Where where do your where

314
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,719
Speaker 1: do your instincts and your eyeballs take you? In this

315
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: AFC conference, Well, it's hard not to go with the

316
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 1: Chiefs just right off the bat. I know they have

317
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 1: struggled to start the season. I know they are one

318
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,959
Speaker 1: and two and at the bottom of the AFC West,

319
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 1: but they are still the Chiefs. They still have a

320
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: lot of talent. You would have to imagine that they

321
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: can get some things together, that Patrick Mahomes can stop

322
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 1: throwing those ill timed interceptions, and that their defense can

323
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: get back to being a factor in games at times.

324
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,400
Speaker 1: I know they're not going to have the best defense

325
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: in the NFL, but making better decisions than they have

326
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: the first two weeks. So I'm a believer that the

327
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: Chiefs are kind of kind of get back to how

328
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: the Chiefs play. But at this point, I mean, I

329
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: just look at the AFC West. The Raiders are three

330
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 1: and oh, the Broncos are three and oh, the Charters

331
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: are two and one. The Chargers look like a really

332
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 1: good team to start the season, and through three weeks,

333
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 1: it's like, are the Raiders or the Broncos for real.

334
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 1: I think the Broncos are maybe not as four real

335
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: as the Raiders are. I think the Raiders have some weapons.

336
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 1: Can Derek car do it all season? So I kind

337
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: of look immediately at the AFC West through the Titans

338
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,199
Speaker 1: in there too. The Titans are always going to be

339
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: the Titans. I know that's a game that a lot

340
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 1: of our players probably have circled on the schedule, even

341
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 1: though they don't want to admit that they circle games

342
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 1: on the schedule. This is a game that our team

343
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 1: is going to want to kick their butts because of

344
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: what happened last year and how that game got thrown

345
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: off time wise, and just it was a weird game

346
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 1: for many reasons. So that's kind of where my eyes

347
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 1: go immediately. I don't know if I can pick one

348
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: off the bat right now, but what about you, Brownie? Yeah,

349
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 1: I mean for me now, right now in the AFC,

350
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,199
Speaker 1: I still think it's too early to kind of definitively

351
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 1: stamp anybody, but I think Kansas City is still at

352
00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: the top. I'm just a proponent of you gotta beat

353
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,880
Speaker 1: the man before you can be the man kind of thing,

354
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 1: and the whole year, you know, personally, is that they

355
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 1: no longer have the hunger to get back to the

356
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: top of the mountain. We kind of saw them coast

357
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: through the regular season last year, doing just enough to

358
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: win games, because you know, the difference between them and

359
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,719
Speaker 1: most of the rest of the conference was pretty wide,

360
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,879
Speaker 1: and so they didn't have to have their foot on

361
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: the floor on the gas pedal for every single week

362
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 1: of the regular season and they could still win games.

363
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 1: They got away with it, and then they turned it

364
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 1: on in the playoffs, and as we have discussed on

365
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: this show many times, they probably played their best game

366
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,959
Speaker 1: in the season in the AFC title Game against the Bills.

367
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 1: But right now they're playing sloppy football on offense, as

368
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: you mentioned, with some of those ill advised turnovers. I

369
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 1: think they'll get that fixed. I think Mahomes is not

370
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: a quarterback that normally turns the ball over very much

371
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 1: at all, So I think it's just a matter of

372
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,159
Speaker 1: course correcting and he'll be fine. The bigger problem for

373
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: me is their defense. They've given up at least twenty

374
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: nine points in each game that they've played this season.

375
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 1: Now they have played a tough schedule, I mean, first

376
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: three games Cleveland Baltimore Chargers. I mean, that's a pretty

377
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: stiff schedule to come out of the gate with. Should

378
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:17,400
Speaker 1: their defense improve, I believe it will. Three of their

379
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: next five games Maddie are against NFC East teams Eagles,

380
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: Washington Giants. But I think they've got to regroup fast

381
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 1: to be one of the top AFC clubs. The other

382
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 1: considerations for me Cleveland, I think they're in the conversation

383
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: because I think the Browns and the Bills, you could argue,

384
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: have the most complete rosters in the conference, like top

385
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 1: to bottom on offense, top to bottom on defense. They're

386
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: super talented, and they have some depth. I'm still not

387
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 1: convinced that Cleveland has as much depth as the Bills do,

388
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 1: and their offense is going to need to bring it

389
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 1: the next three weeks. They've got three high scoring teams

390
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 1: that they have to play. The next three weeks. They've

391
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 1: got the Vikings, the Chargers, and the Cardinals. Arizona leads

392
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 1: the league in scoring right now, Minnesota's eighth, and the

393
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 1: Chargers just hung thirty points on the Chiefs. So these

394
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 1: next three games are going to tell us a lot

395
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 1: about how seriously we should take the Browns. I can't

396
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 1: get to the Raiders. I just can't get there. I

397
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,640
Speaker 1: am not convinced they can't run the football right now.

398
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 1: They're riding Derek Carr's arm, which I think once you

399
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:34,120
Speaker 1: get once you get up against a good pass defense,

400
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: they're going to be revealed for what they are, which

401
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 1: right now is a one dimensional offense. They can't turn

402
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 1: to their run game in any way, shape or form.

403
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 1: Right now, they're lasting the league in rushing, so I

404
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: think that's an issue that will eventually crop up, maybe

405
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: not this week, but maybe the week after. Chargers sneaky

406
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: good team. Maddie. I know they got there. They finally

407
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: got on the radar here after their win last week

408
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: at Kansas City. But they have a quarterback who can

409
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 1: do a lot of the same things as Josh Allen.

410
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: He's got gobs of talent around him, Keenan Allen's one

411
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: of the best route runners in the league. Mike Williams

412
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 1: who tooled the Chiefs last Sunday, and then they got

413
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: Austin Eckler. I mean, their run defense is a problem,

414
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: but if Derwin James is okay after getting a shoulder

415
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 1: ding last week, the team is one that can go

416
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,399
Speaker 1: toe to toe with a lot of the higher scoring

417
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,119
Speaker 1: teams in the conference. So I think the Chargers are

418
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: They're on the watch list, I guess, is what I

419
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: would say. And then there's Baltimore. I think they're doing

420
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 1: it with smoking mirrors right now, but they find a

421
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: way to pull out these games. Man. I don't get it,

422
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 1: like they don't have enough to be a prolific offense,

423
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,360
Speaker 1: but their defense forces turnovers and somehow they pull out

424
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: these squeaker games every single week. It's hard for me

425
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 1: to believe a team that needed a sixty six yard

426
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 1: field goal to beat the Lions, of all teams, is

427
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 1: a team we need to worry about. But I just

428
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: think they're one of the most mentally tough teams in

429
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 1: the entire league, and that somehow helps them squeak out

430
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: victories in some way she'd performed. I do not believe

431
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: in Tennessee. I know you were saying that Tennessee is

432
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,679
Speaker 1: still on your radar. I don't believe in them. I

433
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: think their defense has changed too much. They can't stop anybody,

434
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,719
Speaker 1: and until they prove otherwise, I'm not jumping on the

435
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: Tennessee train. Even though they've been a contender each of

436
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 1: the last three years, an Indie that was a team

437
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:27,120
Speaker 1: I thought was a shoeing for the playoffs, and they

438
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 1: have got problems. We thought their offensive line was great.

439
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,120
Speaker 1: It has been awful through the first three weeks. It's

440
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: messed up Carson Wentz's internal clock. Now he's seeing ghosts

441
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 1: and he's running for his life, and he's chucking the

442
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 1: ball out of bounds like way too prematurely. And their

443
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 1: defense is given up points. So I don't know if

444
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: they can get it fixed in time to contend here.

445
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 1: So those are some of my thoughts. Sorry I was

446
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 1: rambling there. It just kind of ran through half the AFC.

447
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: But I don't know. I can't get on board with

448
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 1: Indie or Tennessee for some reason. I just have very

449
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 1: little faith in the AFC South. Yeah, the FC South.

450
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,439
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got two teams that are winless in

451
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 1: the AFC South. Right now. You have a team with

452
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: one win who has a rookie quarterback who is going

453
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: to have his second career start against the Buffalo Bills,

454
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: the top five defense in the NFL. So yeah, I

455
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:24,639
Speaker 1: would agree, not too much hope in the AFC South,

456
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: although I do think the Titans are They've got it

457
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: on there on the offense. Yeah, their defense isn't doing

458
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: as well, but Kansas City Chiefs defense is doing worse.

459
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 1: I just pull up some of their stats. It's bad,

460
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 1: favoring towards the bottom of the league in so many stats.

461
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,880
Speaker 1: They're allowing thirty one points a game, four hundred thirty

462
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: yards a game. Um, it's bad. Yeah, Now a seventy

463
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 1: percent completion percentage is what they're allowing. Right, They've been

464
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: out of sync on defense in a word. I think

465
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 1: all of the we talk all the time, Mattie about

466
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 1: the offseason studying that the coordinators do in this league,

467
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: and I think a lot of ocs have done their

468
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 1: homework on the Chiefs defense, and I think they've picked

469
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: up certain tendencies as to win. Spegnola's going to go

470
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:17,439
Speaker 1: all out blitz because watching that game last week between

471
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 1: Kansas City and the Chargers, every time that Kansas City wins,

472
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 1: zero blitz, which means no help on the back end.

473
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: It's a man to man across the board and you're

474
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:31,919
Speaker 1: sending seven usually whenever they sent all out blitz at

475
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:37,399
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert. Every single time the Chargers had a checkdown option,

476
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 1: leaking out of the backfield, whether it was a running

477
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 1: back or you know, an h back tight end type,

478
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 1: they would just leak out into the flat and so

479
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 1: when the rush came, Herbert would just dump it down

480
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: and there was nobody out there on that guy because

481
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 1: everybody was coming, and they would get the first down

482
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 1: or stay on schedule down in distance wise, and the

483
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,399
Speaker 1: drive would continue. And I saw them do that a

484
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 1: half a dozen times in the game. So it almost

485
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: seemed like the Chargers knew every time Kansas City was

486
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,919
Speaker 1: going to dial up a major blitz call, and they

487
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: had an answer for it every single time. So it's

488
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: going to be interesting to see how Kansas City can

489
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:20,120
Speaker 1: diversify some of their defensive play calls, because it seems

490
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 1: as though, at least the Chargers anyway this past week,

491
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: knew what was coming and win. And that is not

492
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 1: a good place to be if you're a defense trying

493
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: to stop a quarterback the caliber of a Justin Herbert.

494
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 1: I would also say, isn't it funny that we didn't

495
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 1: even not that they should be mentioned, but that they've

496
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 1: fallen off that quickly. The Pittsburgh Steelers, of course, we

497
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: knew their offense was going to struggle just because of

498
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 1: the year that Ben Roethlisberger had last year. And I

499
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: mean that offense did not look good in that Week

500
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 1: one game. It was their defense that was completely carrying

501
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 1: their team, that was able to carry them to a win.

502
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: But it's funny how quickly a team can fall off

503
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: after just one week of play, right, And I think

504
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 1: we saw Steve has said this many times on the show.

505
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: We watched the Steelers get old in a hurry. Last year.

506
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 1: Their offensive line looked like an old and decrepit bunch

507
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 1: by week twelve, and it never changed after that. And

508
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:28,439
Speaker 1: I think the deterioration of play in the offensive line

509
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:34,400
Speaker 1: almost gave the Steelers organization false hope that, oh it's

510
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:37,639
Speaker 1: not Ben, it's the linemen that are the problem. They

511
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 1: all got old. They just can't cut it anymore. We'll

512
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 1: revamp the line, get another year or so out of

513
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: Ben and will be okay, and we can kind of

514
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: start looking for our new quarterback, you know, this offseason

515
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 1: or whatever. And that was an error in judgment, potentially

516
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: of epic proportions, as we may soon find because Ben

517
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 1: look sold in Week two and even older in week

518
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 1: I mean, he's falling down trying to roll out with

519
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: nobody around him, He's like stumbling. It's it's tough to watch,

520
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: quite frankly, and there is no one in the pipeline

521
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,479
Speaker 1: right now for them at the quarterback position, So poor planning.

522
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: As far as I'm concerned for Pittsburgh, and I envisioned

523
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: them being under five hundred, I don't see them ripping

524
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: off a string of victories anytime soon. So yeah, I

525
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 1: did not put them in the conversation, and neither did you.

526
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: And I'm not right all the time, but I think

527
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 1: we're right on this one. I don't see the Steelers

528
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 1: going anywhere. We have to take a break, but when

529
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 1: we come back. More of your thoughts, if you have

530
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: any on who you believe the biggest challenger to the

531
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: Bills is in the AFC after three games played, feel

532
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: free to chime in on the tweet sheet or give

533
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: us a quality three, five fifty. And coming up next,

534
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: we've got some comments for you from the coordinators. After

535
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: we went off the air yesterday, they addressed the media.

536
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 1: We'll have some of their more notable comments next. Brian

537
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 1: Dable and Leslie Frazier here on One Bill's Live, presented

538
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 1: by kellat of health. It's Buffalo Bill's radio takes the shotgun,

539
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: stamp pocket collapsing around him. Can't get rid of it

540
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: now he does picked off intercepted by Poyer at the

541
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 1: forty thirty and he gets hit from behind and dropped

542
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: at about the seventeen yard by intended for Terry mcclaurin. Heineck.

543
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: He just put it up for grabs and there was

544
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer to make the interception. We had a great

545
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 1: pass rush. You guys, everybody's doing their job. You was

546
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: getting getting the after him and forcing to try to

547
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 1: check the ball down and make it thrid that you

548
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 1: want to make and all there to make a great

549
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: He's want to continue to get better. Anytime you go

550
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 1: out there on defense, you want to give your opportunity

551
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 1: to take it for golow Away. That is the Freedo

552
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: La Crunch Time play of the game, brought to you

553
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 1: by Friedo La. It's crunch time and an update on

554
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer, who left the game with an ankle injury

555
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: laid in the win over Washington. He's been labeled day

556
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: to day by head coach Sean McDermott, Chris Brown, Maddick

557
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 1: lab with you here on a Tuesday, and we wanted

558
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 1: to get some of the more notable comments from the

559
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: offensive and defensive coordinators for the Buffalo Bills passed along

560
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 1: to you. Much has been made already about the emotions

561
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: that Brian Dable, the offensive coordinator, had to deal with

562
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 1: this past week after the unfortunate passing of his grandmother

563
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 1: who was essentially the woman that raised him along with

564
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 1: his grandfather in West Seneca, and dealing with that while

565
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: preparing for a football game, and the players kind of

566
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: led on after the game that let everybody know what

567
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: he was dealing with through the course of the week

568
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: because he had kept it to himself. The team rallied

569
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 1: for him, said they performed and executed the way they

570
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: did in honor of his grandmother this past week. So

571
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 1: here is Brian Dable on his thoughts about the team

572
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 1: rallying and executing on his behalf. I appreciate them being

573
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 1: there for me. And again, you know, my grandmother would

574
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 1: have wanted to to go out there and play well,

575
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 1: and that's that's what she would want. She wouldn't want

576
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 1: to sit there and have people feel sorry for themselves.

577
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 1: And you know, think about how you know bad it

578
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: is when you lose someone which I'm sure most of

579
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 1: you have, that's that's really close to you and a

580
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: rock for you. She wants you to have a positive

581
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: attitude and probably say a couple of cuss words in

582
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 1: there to to get it going. And you know she

583
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: knew Josh pretty well and Josh's family. Um, so we

584
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: appreciate him and appreciate all the guys, Dion and and

585
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: really all of them. Those guys have been fantastic. Um,

586
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 1: you know, very glad. You know, I'm very uh you know,

587
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 1: blessed to be around those those type of guys. Um,

588
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: So it was good. Look, I'm not going to sugarcoat

589
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: it's it's it was special to me. You know, I

590
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: lost a woman that was most important in my life.

591
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 1: And you know, those guys are are just great people

592
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 1: that but they want to win no matter what, you know,

593
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: they want to win. Every every single week. We want

594
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 1: to win. And everything we do, whether it's a period

595
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 1: against the defense where there's a seven on seven on

596
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 1: whatever it may be, we want to win. I mean

597
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: that's that's you're in the competitive industry. Um. But again,

598
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 1: the relationships that you build with the people that you

599
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 1: work with every day. I mean that that's that's that's

600
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 1: real life. That's important, and that's important to me. You know,

601
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: I got a ton of respect for for those guys

602
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: in the locker room, not just them, the assistant coaches

603
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 1: that I work with, UM, you know, being for that,

604
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 1: being there for them, for their families, UM, their children,

605
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: And it goes both ways. I think that's, uh, that's

606
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 1: special if you can create that, but it's got to

607
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: be real and authentic, and you know that's that's certainly

608
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 1: how I felt, you know, when you think about it,

609
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: Maddie UM. First point here is this is not the

610
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: first time that the Bills have had to deal with

611
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 1: personal loss. We all remember, of course, when Josh's grandmother

612
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 1: passed just before the Seattle game in Week nine last year,

613
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 1: and then in recent weeks, I mean just last week,

614
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 1: Zach Moss went down to South Florida early. I believe

615
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 1: it was his aunt that passed, and then siran Neil,

616
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: I think it was his grandfather that passed, all in

617
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: the span of the last ten days here, you know,

618
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 1: and then Brian Dable's grandmothers. So the other thing though

619
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: for me that I think goes by the board all

620
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 1: too often is these guys in this performance business, you know,

621
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:45,319
Speaker 1: most people, when you lose a family member of this significance,

622
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 1: you're given time away from your work. You get a

623
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 1: few days off, you kind of take care of family matters,

624
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 1: you kind of bought, you know, you kind of pulled

625
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 1: together as a family, get through the situation, and then

626
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 1: you return to work, you know, a few days later,

627
00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 1: a week later, whatever it is. These guys can't take

628
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 1: time off like that during the regular season. So to

629
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 1: be able to compartmentalize what was probably a very traumatic,

630
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 1: tragic I don't know what the word is. I don't

631
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 1: want to pretend I know what Brian Dable's feelings were,

632
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: but clearly she meant an awful lot to him. To

633
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: be able to compartmentalize that, put that over here and

634
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 1: still prepare for a football game. Most people in their

635
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: line of work do not have to do that when

636
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: something like this happens. Yeah, I was gonna say, I mean,

637
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 1: that's what I was thinking about this week. Was near

638
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:34,400
Speaker 1: thinking back on this week once we found out that

639
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 1: Brian Dabell lost his grandmother, was just how much time

640
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,840
Speaker 1: he's still spent at the facility during the week, and

641
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: that's when the people that you're around really become your

642
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: family because you are at the facility so much throughout

643
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:50,240
Speaker 1: the football season that life happens at the football facility,

644
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 1: and sometimes you just got a break from the film,

645
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,759
Speaker 1: you just got a break from practice. And I'm sure

646
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 1: these guys do act like human beings at the complex,

647
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: just with how much time they have they happen to

648
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,720
Speaker 1: spend there and probably how much life and things happen

649
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: or how much they find out while they're at that

650
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 1: complex too. So I'm glad that they have a tight

651
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 1: knit group that, you know, you can act like a

652
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: real person around you don't have to, you know, completely

653
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 1: shut everything out and focus on just your job of

654
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 1: being the offensive coordinator. This week, I have to imagine

655
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 1: that Brian Dayball had some good conversations and maybe some

656
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: needed conversations with some of his offensive staff or or

657
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 1: some of his players. So to know that he's around

658
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,359
Speaker 1: a group that really cares about him and same as

659
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:40,919
Speaker 1: as the players, to know that they're around a group

660
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,479
Speaker 1: of guys that really care about, you know, their life

661
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,239
Speaker 1: off the football field. I'm glad that they have that,

662
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,720
Speaker 1: and I think that's what we see translate to the field.

663
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 1: On Sundays on a much lighter note, Brian Dable talked

664
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 1: about two players that we talked about yesterday on the

665
00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 1: show Maddie, namely Dawson Knox and Zach Moss. Obviously, both

666
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:05,800
Speaker 1: of those guys making important contributions in the victory on Sunday,

667
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: both of the main contributions the week prior in the

668
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:13,839
Speaker 1: win over Miami with Moss's two late touchdowns. Knox had

669
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:16,760
Speaker 1: a touchdown catch in that game. So here is Brian

670
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: Dable on the progress that those two young players have

671
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 1: made in the scope of Buffalo's offense. Look, Dawson has

672
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: just worked extremely hard since he's been here. I think

673
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 1: that you know, with him and Rob Boris, you know

674
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: those guys have they're always over there doing individual things,

675
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 1: and you know, it seems like he just is out

676
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: there practice on every single rep and it's paying off

677
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: for him. He's got a great mindset. I think he's

678
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 1: a he's got a lot of confidence. He's in a

679
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 1: good headspace. I know we certainly have confidence in him.

680
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: The quarterback does, and you know he's you know, he's

681
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,840
Speaker 1: made a lot of plays for us here throughout training

682
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,399
Speaker 1: camp and leading into the to the regular season here. Again,

683
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,319
Speaker 1: it's not about how many catches and all those things.

684
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 1: He's just doing the right things. And when you do

685
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 1: the right things on a consistent basis, you're in the

686
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 1: confidence of i'd say the coaching staff and of the quarterback.

687
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,320
Speaker 1: So you know, I've seen it doesn't surprise me what

688
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 1: he did on that that play. It was a heck

689
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 1: of a catch, But I've seen that throughout training camp here,

690
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 1: and I think those are the things that that gives

691
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,360
Speaker 1: you confidence, not just as a coach to a player,

692
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: but a player for a player. And Zach ran really hard,

693
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,439
Speaker 1: which you always we know that Za Zach runs hard.

694
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 1: He's you know, he's kind of a you don't think

695
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 1: about him in the passing game, but every time we

696
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 1: throw it to him, he usually makes a play on

697
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 1: it and that's important. And a lot of times it's

698
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 1: down there in the red zone when when something loose happens. So, um,

699
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:41,719
Speaker 1: you know, working hard to improve. I think that's a

700
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:44,920
Speaker 1: you know, between Zach and Motor, those guys have a

701
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 1: good thing going and um just trying to improve with it.

702
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,839
Speaker 1: So there it is. I mean, it's pretty straightforward. Yes,

703
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,440
Speaker 1: it's obvious to just about everybody watching the games what

704
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 1: those two guys have been able to contribute over these

705
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 1: last two weeks. But it's an encouraging sign because those

706
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: are two guys that I think most would have agreed

707
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 1: coming into the season are not proven weapons per se.

708
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 1: They have potential, but can you truly count on them

709
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: in a tight spot? And I think over these last

710
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:21,799
Speaker 1: couple of weeks the answer has been yes, And that's encouraging. Yeah,

711
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,799
Speaker 1: Zach Moss has four point one yards per attempt right now.

712
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 1: That's a pretty good number for him, and Dawson Knox

713
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,800
Speaker 1: is over one hundred or siving yards just through three games.

714
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 1: Not that these are eye popping statistics or anything like

715
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 1: that or lead the league in any way, but I

716
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: think it's good to see those numbers as benchmark numbers

717
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,439
Speaker 1: for them right now. You want to see Dawson Knox

718
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:47,279
Speaker 1: getting involved in the game early on, I mean early

719
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: on in the season. You want to see that be

720
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 1: consistent throughout the season. That means that Dawson Knox is

721
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,359
Speaker 1: performing well. The same thing with Zach Moss. You want

722
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 1: him to be the guy that they can go to

723
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 1: in those short yards situations where he can get those

724
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 1: tough yards because he is that big, tough back for

725
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. So I'm happy with what I've seen

726
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: from them through the first three games. I expect more

727
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 1: out of them. I'm really interested and excited about what

728
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 1: Dawson Knox's role could be this season, just because of

729
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 1: what we've seen in the first three weeks. He's made

730
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,879
Speaker 1: some great catches. These are catches that I don't think

731
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,360
Speaker 1: he would have made last season or this season before.

732
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 1: I know, last season he had COVID and was on

733
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: the COVID list and was also dealing with the injuries.

734
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,440
Speaker 1: But to see him bounce back in the way that

735
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 1: he has this season, I think that says some good

736
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,800
Speaker 1: things about what's going to happen down the road for

737
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: him this season. Yeah, the only thing that potentially hold

738
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,440
Speaker 1: him back is the multitude of weapons that Josh Allen

739
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 1: has at his disposal. I mean we're already seeing that

740
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: to a certain extent with Stefon Diggs. I mean, he

741
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 1: leads the league in receptions last year with one hundred

742
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: and twenty seven, and he's not catching as many balls.

743
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 1: He's not getting as many targets naturally, because he's the

744
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 1: number one primary focus of a poet defenses number one,

745
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,280
Speaker 1: But number two, you have some pretty inviting other options

746
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 1: in this offense now, as we saw with Emmanuel Sanders

747
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:11,399
Speaker 1: last week. So you wonder if that attention or role

748
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: within the scope of the passing game changes week to

749
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 1: week based on how defenses play them. Coach Frasier had

750
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:22,400
Speaker 1: a comment on the play of Matt Milano through the

751
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 1: first three games this season. We've seen very good play

752
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 1: from Matt Milano over the course of his career in

753
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,399
Speaker 1: a Bill's uniform, but I think most that have watched

754
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 1: these first three games would agree that he has taken

755
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:35,399
Speaker 1: it to another level through the first three weeks this season.

756
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,440
Speaker 1: So here's coach Fraser on that subject. Matt seems to

757
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 1: be playing with so much more confidence. You can see

758
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 1: it in his urgency, the way he's practicing, the way

759
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:48,480
Speaker 1: he's playing. He's much more bocal than he's ever been.

760
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 1: There's just a whole nother level to his plate, and

761
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,000
Speaker 1: these first three games now, he's been a good player

762
00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: for us all alone, which is one of the reasons

763
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 1: he was resigned to a good contract. But he's taking

764
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 1: his game to a low level from an intensitive standpoint,

765
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 1: and it's really becoming infectious, which the rest of our players.

766
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,840
Speaker 1: So I just love the energy that he's bringing and

767
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 1: the fire ridges that he's playing with, and hopefully it

768
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:20,880
Speaker 1: will continue. Yeah, there's no question he's been a catalyst

769
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 1: for the Bills defense through the first three weeks. As

770
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:27,279
Speaker 1: we mentioned on the show yesterday, fumble recoveries in back

771
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 1: to back games. So he's not just making the you know,

772
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: the dirty work type plays in the front seven. He's

773
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,879
Speaker 1: making splash plays as well, and I just think he's

774
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 1: reading plays a lot more effectively. It's just you're a

775
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 1: four year vet, you kind of know what to expect,

776
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,839
Speaker 1: you're familiar with this defense. You can go and play free,

777
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 1: and he's been doing that. We are up against the break.

778
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 1: When we come back, we might hear one more common

779
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 1: from Coach Frasier, but we have to step aside here.

780
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:57,320
Speaker 1: But when we come back, we'll finish off Coach Frasier's

781
00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 1: thoughts about the week that was, along with plenty more

782
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 1: an Hour number two, including Good Morning Football's Kyle Brandt,

783
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 1: who set to make his weekly appearance here on One

784
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:09,799
Speaker 1: Bill's Live, presented by Kalota Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio

785
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 1: nine for New York Lotteries. Inside the Numbers. Inside the

786
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:27,280
Speaker 1: Numbers is brought to you by the New York Lottery.

787
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: Get out there and play. The Bills have topped four

788
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 1: hundred yards in four of their last six games and

789
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 1: have extended their streak of three hundred plus yard games

790
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:39,320
Speaker 1: to thirteen, breaking a tie for the second longest streak

791
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:43,320
Speaker 1: in team history. So they had a twelve game streak

792
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,920
Speaker 1: in the twelve games of the eighty nine season, but

793
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,920
Speaker 1: thirteen games breaking a tie, so now the second longest

794
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:52,720
Speaker 1: in team history. We'll see if they can continue that streak.

795
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 1: I am assuming they will this week against a Houston

796
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,720
Speaker 1: team that has found it hard to stop anybody. Manny

797
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:04,760
Speaker 1: just very quickly on the surface, twenty third in total defense,

798
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 1: eighteenth and points allowed, and yeah, not bad. They're fourteenth

799
00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,320
Speaker 1: and third down defense. That's not too shabby for a

800
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 1: team that has trouble stringing together plays on offense. So

801
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 1: we'll see where it goes, but I expect a lopsided result.

802
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 1: We had one more comment we wanted, Manny, and I

803
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 1: wanted to pass along to you from Leslie Frazier, and

804
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:31,240
Speaker 1: that was on the secondaries impact through three games this season.

805
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 1: As we know, the three veteran members of the secondary

806
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 1: all got in on the action last week as each

807
00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 1: of them were responsible for a takeaway. Trudevious forced to

808
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:46,879
Speaker 1: fumble and then Poyer and Hide at interceptions and heck,

809
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,799
Speaker 1: Levi Wallace the fourth member had a pick last week.

810
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 1: So here is Coach Frasier on the secondaries impact through

811
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 1: three games this season. We got two tone setters and

812
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,840
Speaker 1: join pour year along with my a hide and the

813
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 1: things that to Davis can do as well. And you

814
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:08,040
Speaker 1: mentioned Arn who's become a big time playmaker for us,

815
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 1: and Levi has really held his own and a lot

816
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 1: of ways for us and making plays. But I think

817
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 1: Kim at the end of the day, our d line,

818
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: that's the tone set up for our defense. Our secondary,

819
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,239
Speaker 1: they do a terrific job and we feel like we

820
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:26,760
Speaker 1: have one of the better secondaries in the National Football

821
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: League and they play with a ton of energy. They

822
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:33,120
Speaker 1: make big plays for us. We have two of our

823
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,799
Speaker 1: best leaders on the team in our secondary and both

824
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 1: Mica and Jordan, so in a lot of ways, they

825
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:41,920
Speaker 1: do it in a different way. Just their attitude and

826
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 1: approach to practice, and I think we have a physical

827
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:48,799
Speaker 1: secondary as well. Were not just guys who can who

828
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 1: can cover and match receivers, but there's a certain physicality

829
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 1: to our secondary as well. Levi gets a lot of

830
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,719
Speaker 1: criticism sometimes, but can you talk about the last couple

831
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,440
Speaker 1: of weeks. She made some big plays in Miami and

832
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:07,319
Speaker 1: he played outstanding yesterday. Can you just talk about his progress? Yeah,

833
00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 1: I think Levi has really come along for us, and

834
00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 1: you know, he battled throughout the entire off season. You know,

835
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 1: he had Dame with ballot for that starting spot, and

836
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 1: he won the job through some of his work in

837
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,239
Speaker 1: training camp as well as the preseason game. He was

838
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:26,040
Speaker 1: able to play and he's I don't know. I know

839
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:29,360
Speaker 1: people sometimes I want to be critical, like you mentioned,

840
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:32,439
Speaker 1: but he's done a good job for us. It's hard

841
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,719
Speaker 1: not to be targeted when you opposite one of the

842
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:36,879
Speaker 1: best corners in the league, and to David's White, you're

843
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 1: gonna get balls thrown at you. And I think over

844
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:42,640
Speaker 1: these last couple of weeks he's stood the test and

845
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 1: I think he'll continue to do that throughout the season.

846
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 1: But that's not going to stop people from throwing at him.

847
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,840
Speaker 1: But he'll continue to rise to the case. You know,

848
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 1: the biggest thing I take away from the game, Maddie

849
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:58,360
Speaker 1: is I think the defense has shown an ability to

850
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:02,839
Speaker 1: contribute to victory in different ways. You know, Week two

851
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 1: it was all about the pass rush, and last week

852
00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:08,760
Speaker 1: it was all about the guys in the back seven

853
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 1: making plays. When you have a defense that can kind

854
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,359
Speaker 1: of morph and change what they do in the course

855
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 1: of a game to change the course of the game

856
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:21,799
Speaker 1: in your favor, that's a pretty special thing. I mean,

857
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,399
Speaker 1: it's not like it's just got they got a bunch

858
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,840
Speaker 1: of pass rushers and that's what they win with. Like Washington,

859
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:29,400
Speaker 1: for example, when their pass rush wasn't working for them

860
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:32,359
Speaker 1: this past week against the Bills, they gave up forty

861
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 1: three points. The Bills defense, on the other hand, has

862
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: different ways to beat you. Yeah. I think the Bills

863
00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 1: defense is well rounded and the fact that they have

864
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,279
Speaker 1: talent up front, they have talent in the middle, and

865
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,480
Speaker 1: they have talent on the back end. Yeah, there are

866
00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:53,840
Speaker 1: some stars mixed in amongst those position groups, But overall,

867
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: I think they compliment each other and that you don't

868
00:47:57,080 --> 00:48:00,320
Speaker 1: have to rely on one facet of your defense or

869
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 1: one part of your defense every single week, weekend and

870
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,880
Speaker 1: week out, Like maybe the Washington football team has to

871
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 1: do with their front four. They have guys who can

872
00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:12,759
Speaker 1: get the job done, from your defensive line to your

873
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 1: linebackers to your secondary. They're tied for fourth right now.

874
00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:21,280
Speaker 1: It's six takeaways and they have allowed only six plays

875
00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 1: of more than twenty yards, which is the second least

876
00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 1: in the league. So again it goes back to the

877
00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:31,319
Speaker 1: maturity of the group on the back end. I really

878
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 1: liked what Leslie Frazier said about Matt Milano. I know

879
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:37,919
Speaker 1: we're talking about the secondary right now, but for linebackers.

880
00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 1: He said that Matt has really been a vocal asset

881
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 1: on the defense this year, and he's replicating the calls

882
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 1: that Tremaine Edmonds has because sometimes you need two people

883
00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 1: to signal what type of defense you're going to go

884
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:59,520
Speaker 1: into on each play. So I think each also, different

885
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 1: players are peaking at the right time over the course

886
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:06,640
Speaker 1: of their time with the Buffalo Bills. Whether it's Tremaine,

887
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 1: whether it's Matt, whether it's Levi, whether it's Greg. I

888
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:13,560
Speaker 1: think we're all seeing this come together here this season

889
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,759
Speaker 1: with where each guys at in their career, whether it

890
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 1: be a ten year career or a one year career

891
00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,800
Speaker 1: so far. Yeah, I think Mulano feels comfortable in his

892
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:24,920
Speaker 1: own skin now, maybe more than ever. He got the

893
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:29,360
Speaker 1: big contract, He's recognized financially as a leader of that defense,

894
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 1: and I think he feels like, Okay, you know, I'm

895
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,239
Speaker 1: a young vet on this team. Now I can kind

896
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:38,800
Speaker 1: of take more of a leadership role, assist Tremaine wherever possible,

897
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:41,239
Speaker 1: and he's doing that. We have to take a break here,

898
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 1: but when we come back, it is time for the

899
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:48,359
Speaker 1: weekly appearance of Good Morning Football's Kyle Brandt. What does

900
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:52,360
Speaker 1: he think of the AFC power structure after three games played.

901
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,040
Speaker 1: We'll get his thoughts on that, plus a plenty more,

902
00:49:55,480 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 1: including a review of the touchdown celebration, the pro picture

903
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 1: between one Josh Allen and Dawson Knox. All of that

904
00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:05,440
Speaker 1: coming your way next here on One Bills Live, presented

905
00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 1: by Collot of Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio at a

906
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:26,319
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker who has been all over the fields. Kind

907
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:28,160
Speaker 1: of unique. He was kind of a dual role player

908
00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:34,880
Speaker 1: for Steve. A blimp. We're not even in the credit

909
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:40,400
Speaker 1: fear of normalcy. Giving my game ball to Josh Allen,

910
00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:42,239
Speaker 1: who's had to sit around at home and listen to

911
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:46,640
Speaker 1: us hype a kicker, a Jaguars kick returner who lost

912
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 1: the game, by the way, and job sounds like I

913
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:52,200
Speaker 1: had three fifty eight and five, you dummies against this

914
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:55,600
Speaker 1: incredible Washington defense that's got this amazing pass rush and

915
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:57,960
Speaker 1: all these restaurant picks. Josh Allen looked like the kid

916
00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:00,280
Speaker 1: who should be moved up from junior varsity to barity.

917
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 1: In this game, Oh, we gotta move him up. He

918
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:03,839
Speaker 1: doesn't belong on the field with them. It's his best

919
00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:05,839
Speaker 1: game of the season. Even waiting for the Josh Allen

920
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:08,360
Speaker 1: game this season, this was a Josh Allen game. The

921
00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,360
Speaker 1: Bills are fully hit their stride. They are a juggernaut,

922
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,040
Speaker 1: and that guy is one of the best five players

923
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:18,000
Speaker 1: in the league. Wow, all right, big statement there from

924
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,279
Speaker 1: Kyle Brand, who joins us as he does every week

925
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:23,400
Speaker 1: here on Tuesdays during the regular season. First welcome Kyle

926
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:28,680
Speaker 1: second top five player in the league. That's right. Do

927
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 1: you have a handy list of the four you've got

928
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:32,879
Speaker 1: in front of him? I can probably think of two

929
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:41,440
Speaker 1: or three. Oh yeah, sure, Bigs, Dawson, Knox, Lano. I mean,

930
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:44,480
Speaker 1: how many do you guys want? My only regret. You know,

931
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:46,320
Speaker 1: sometimes I get caught up in the moment Brownie and

932
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:48,719
Speaker 1: Maddie and my only I do regret saying he's a

933
00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 1: top five player. I should have say he's a top

934
00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 1: three player. What are we talking about here? I can't

935
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,799
Speaker 1: only go this long listening about other quarterbacks and Dak

936
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: Prescott this they're all great. We have a quarterback on

937
00:51:59,880 --> 00:52:02,520
Speaker 1: a rocket right now. I love this point of the

938
00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,560
Speaker 1: year because we finished three weeks and some of these

939
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:08,920
Speaker 1: teams are liars and deceivers, and they're not anything like

940
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:11,839
Speaker 1: we thought they would be. The Steelers come to mind,

941
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,200
Speaker 1: who somehow beat this team week one. I don't know

942
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:18,880
Speaker 1: how that happened. Josh Allen. Everything now is settling in

943
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:22,680
Speaker 1: like it's supposed to be. To the moon. Yes, top five.

944
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:27,359
Speaker 1: So now the Bills are averaging over thirty points a game,

945
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 1: returning to their twenty twenty form. Josh Allen completes over

946
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:35,359
Speaker 1: seventy four percent of his passes against the Washington football team.

947
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:39,279
Speaker 1: I mean that offense looked electric. What did you think

948
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:44,000
Speaker 1: of Josh's performance in Week three? Well, I knew that

949
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: game was coming, Mattie, we all did. It wasn't That's

950
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:49,239
Speaker 1: the one. When the schedule comes out in April or

951
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:51,600
Speaker 1: whenever it is or May, and you look at this schedule,

952
00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 1: you're like, Washington, that'll be tough. You know they got

953
00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:56,600
Speaker 1: that defensive line and it's all first round draft picks.

954
00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:58,840
Speaker 1: That is never the game that you would have picked

955
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 1: as d Josh Allen twenty one explosion game this week

956
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 1: against Houston, sure, but not home against Washington. And that's

957
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,600
Speaker 1: what's so great about it. This was never a game.

958
00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:11,080
Speaker 1: Antonio Gibson made it kind of exciting with that long

959
00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 1: catch and run, but this was a walloping from start

960
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 1: to finish against a team that's well coached and as

961
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,200
Speaker 1: a good defense, this is the team is supposed to

962
00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:20,440
Speaker 1: give the Bills a little bit of trouble, no trouble,

963
00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,319
Speaker 1: none whatsoever. And so I guess it's cool to see

964
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,759
Speaker 1: the Josh Allen game. Never would have thought it would

965
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,360
Speaker 1: be against Washington. That's why this team's already full of surprises.

966
00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:32,520
Speaker 1: So you mentioned Dawson Knox here, Kyle, and you made

967
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:34,920
Speaker 1: an acrobatic play to catch a touchdown from Josh in

968
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:37,840
Speaker 1: the game. I don't know if you saw the celebration afterwards,

969
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:42,319
Speaker 1: but I need your review of this celebration. I don't

970
00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:43,960
Speaker 1: know if they pulled this out of a scene from

971
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:47,600
Speaker 1: There's something about Mary, but he scores the touchdown and

972
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 1: they go with the prom pose. Did you see this?

973
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:56,440
Speaker 1: I saw it. You can practically smell the boutineer coming

974
00:53:56,520 --> 00:54:01,120
Speaker 1: off the photo, so I would typically I think Josh

975
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:03,520
Speaker 1: was hand on the hip, which means that he would

976
00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 1: have brought the corsage, and then Dawson would have been

977
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:10,760
Speaker 1: responsible for the boutineer. If there, it's an absolutely beautiful moment.

978
00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:13,200
Speaker 1: They look like you know what. A lot of times

979
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 1: you go to prom. I don't know about you, guys.

980
00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:17,000
Speaker 1: I went to my senior problem with a friend, so

981
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,560
Speaker 1: great girl named Beth I'd been friends with for four years.

982
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: We didn't have the coin of romantic thing, and that's fine.

983
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,240
Speaker 1: We're just there to have time and sneak a few beers.

984
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 1: We took that exact pose. I think the most fun

985
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:29,680
Speaker 1: you have at prom is with a friend. Now, maybe

986
00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:31,480
Speaker 1: that's because I didn't have a girlfriend at the time,

987
00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:34,200
Speaker 1: so my problem was peag rated. But I relate here

988
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 1: to Josh and Dawson and they're they're a great looking

989
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:41,440
Speaker 1: couple of friends. A lotless pressure there when it's with

990
00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:44,440
Speaker 1: a friend. Yeah, Maddie, I was gonna say, I went

991
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 1: to prom with a friend. I went to prom with

992
00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:49,759
Speaker 1: a friend. My junior and senior year wasn't about having

993
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:52,520
Speaker 1: any boyfriends. I was. I was too busy in the books,

994
00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:56,480
Speaker 1: is what the book worms say. I guess we look

995
00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:59,000
Speaker 1: back at this Week one loss against the Steelers and

996
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,839
Speaker 1: I feel like Bill fans and media members are kind

997
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:04,560
Speaker 1: of just scratching their heads as like, is this going

998
00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:07,640
Speaker 1: to be the loss that haunts this team throughout the season.

999
00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:12,360
Speaker 1: What do you think? You know? Our mutual friend, former

1000
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:15,200
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill Ross Tucker, I think put it perfectly. He said,

1001
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 1: I suggest that the NFL launches an investigation and how

1002
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:20,840
Speaker 1: the Steelers beat the Bills Week one. I do I

1003
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:24,400
Speaker 1: support that something that's going on. I smell skullduggery because

1004
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:28,400
Speaker 1: the Steelers look bad and Roethlisberger, God bless him. I

1005
00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:31,120
Speaker 1: love the guy in respect his career looks like an

1006
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:33,320
Speaker 1: ordinary old man and he's got a sore pack. And

1007
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:35,560
Speaker 1: they just had nothing to get Cincinnati last week. It's

1008
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,000
Speaker 1: really bad, and yet they had the Bills number, and

1009
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,080
Speaker 1: the Bills looked topful in that game. But here's what

1010
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:42,080
Speaker 1: I always say and we've come up. We talked about

1011
00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:44,799
Speaker 1: a couple weeks ago week one as a liar. It's pathological.

1012
00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:48,840
Speaker 1: The needles are always jumping. The Packers got destroyed on

1013
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 1: week one, they didn't belong on the same field as

1014
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,480
Speaker 1: the Saints, and now Rogers looks like an MVP candidate.

1015
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,640
Speaker 1: I always throw a Week one away. Week two, as

1016
00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:58,919
Speaker 1: we've talked about, is the boy scout tells the truth.

1017
00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:02,000
Speaker 1: And now we're at the really interesting period where week

1018
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:04,200
Speaker 1: three is like you're thinking about, like should we put

1019
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 1: a ring on it, like this is who the teams are.

1020
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 1: If you're not good by week three, I don't have

1021
00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:11,520
Speaker 1: time for you. And on the flip side, if you

1022
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:14,040
Speaker 1: are good by week three, I believe in you. Now,

1023
00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:17,040
Speaker 1: teams that come up like that, I believe in the Raiders.

1024
00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:19,360
Speaker 1: I have to. I have to after three and OZ

1025
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 1: and a couple of quality wins. I believe in the Broncos.

1026
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 1: They don't have quality wins. They haven't played anybody, and

1027
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:27,239
Speaker 1: people want to point that out, but I would only say,

1028
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:29,359
Speaker 1: as we look at the SFC landscape that the Bills

1029
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,080
Speaker 1: might run into in the playoffs, they have the Broncos

1030
00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:34,640
Speaker 1: have not played good teams, but they've beaten the crap

1031
00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:37,200
Speaker 1: out of the bad teams. That is what you're supposed

1032
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:39,440
Speaker 1: to do. I think these teams are good now at

1033
00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:41,160
Speaker 1: three and out two and oh, I couldn't care less.

1034
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:43,080
Speaker 1: Three and out. It's a big deal. Yeah, and you

1035
00:56:43,120 --> 00:56:44,960
Speaker 1: didn't even mention the Chargers, who I think are for

1036
00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:48,360
Speaker 1: real rights as well. The AFC is really shaping up

1037
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:51,600
Speaker 1: to be such a much tougher landscape to navigate than

1038
00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:54,760
Speaker 1: the NFC. I don't even think it's close. But looking

1039
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:57,680
Speaker 1: to the Bills Week four game this week, I don't

1040
00:56:57,680 --> 00:56:59,840
Speaker 1: think I've ever seen a point spread at seventeen or

1041
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:02,240
Speaker 1: seventeen and a half points, but that is the reality

1042
00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 1: this week for Bills. Texans. Davis Mills comes in as

1043
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:11,480
Speaker 1: essentially what is a third string quarterback Deshaun Watson stuff whatever,

1044
00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:15,800
Speaker 1: But no Tyrode who's still on I are my concern, Kyle?

1045
00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:18,919
Speaker 1: Is this not that I'm concerned that Sean McDermott doesn't

1046
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:20,800
Speaker 1: have his team on the straight and narrow, but when

1047
00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 1: you play, when you play teams like the Houston Texans

1048
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,200
Speaker 1: and you are the Bills, and you've got a team

1049
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:32,200
Speaker 1: like Kansas City. The following week, Sunday night game. I

1050
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:36,520
Speaker 1: just worry about the team developing bad habits and then

1051
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:39,160
Speaker 1: getting smacked in the mouth the next week. What do

1052
00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:41,880
Speaker 1: you think of that? Yeah, I mean it's it's it's

1053
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:45,560
Speaker 1: easy to overlook. We're calling it the Bills versus Mills,

1054
00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:49,640
Speaker 1: the Mills Mafia against the Bills mafia. Is that a thing?

1055
00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:52,680
Speaker 1: I think you said it all, Brownie. This is when

1056
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 1: you could have the greatest players in the world and

1057
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,240
Speaker 1: the greatest roster. The head coacher is his checks. Weeks

1058
00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:00,120
Speaker 1: like this, This is a McDermott week. I think this

1059
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 1: week has very little to do with Alan Diggs or

1060
00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:05,840
Speaker 1: anybody on defense. I think this is a coach McDermott

1061
00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 1: week because there is a massive talent difference between these

1062
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:11,560
Speaker 1: two teams. The Bills should blow them out, and yet

1063
00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:13,760
Speaker 1: you do worry that you look down on the schedule

1064
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:16,520
Speaker 1: and set little arrowhead up there and you're out. It's

1065
00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:18,720
Speaker 1: a classic. It'll call track game whatever you want. I

1066
00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,120
Speaker 1: have so much faith in Sean McDermott, and even if

1067
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:22,840
Speaker 1: they were to mail it in, I still think they're

1068
00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:25,280
Speaker 1: that's so much better. I just wish I wish they

1069
00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:27,760
Speaker 1: could skip this game. I wish the Bills could play

1070
00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:31,320
Speaker 1: the Chiefs tomorrow on Wednesday Night Football, like I wish

1071
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:34,360
Speaker 1: they could play him yesterday. Teams are lining up to

1072
00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:36,840
Speaker 1: play the Chiefs right now, like there is a fight

1073
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,000
Speaker 1: in the parking lot to park the team bust of

1074
00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:41,040
Speaker 1: Arrowhead Stadium and get a piece of these guys because

1075
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:44,440
Speaker 1: they're bleeding. Well, we're just gonna talk about it look

1076
00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:47,240
Speaker 1: ahead to week five, because why the heck not. What

1077
00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:50,080
Speaker 1: is your scouting report on the Chiefs right now? What

1078
00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:54,240
Speaker 1: the heck is up with that team? Okay, great question, Mattie.

1079
00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 1: They've lost three out of four games going back to

1080
00:58:56,080 --> 00:59:01,280
Speaker 1: last season. I think that Patrick Mahomes close his comps

1081
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:04,400
Speaker 1: in the NBA world. I think Patrick Mahomes is Steph Curry.

1082
00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:07,160
Speaker 1: And there are times, if you watch enough Warriors over

1083
00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:09,840
Speaker 1: the years, that Steph Curry starts drinking his own kool

1084
00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:11,760
Speaker 1: aid and starts pulling up from the logo and a

1085
00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:14,360
Speaker 1: half court and doing all this all this stuff that

1086
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 1: we love him. But you're like, after a while, Steph,

1087
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:17,720
Speaker 1: all right enough, why don't you check it down to

1088
00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:20,480
Speaker 1: Draymond on the low block. I think Patrick Mahomes is

1089
00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:23,560
Speaker 1: finally drunk on his own gifts and the no look

1090
00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:26,720
Speaker 1: stuff is not working anymore, and the redirect Kelsey in

1091
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:28,400
Speaker 1: the middle of a huge played down the stretch in

1092
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:31,920
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter lead to an interception not working. Listen,

1093
00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 1: I know it's blasphemous in any NFL circles to say

1094
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,600
Speaker 1: that Patrick Mahomes is making the mistakes. Patrick Mahomes is

1095
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:40,320
Speaker 1: throwing some dumb interceptions, not just intercepts, as dumb ones.

1096
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 1: He did it the week before against Baltimore. I throw

1097
00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:45,520
Speaker 1: he had no business making, gets picked off, ends up

1098
00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:48,040
Speaker 1: costing them the game. I think Mahomes is feeling it

1099
00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:51,440
Speaker 1: right now. Remember this guy's spent a whole offseason hearing

1100
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,040
Speaker 1: how heroic he was in the Super Bowl and oh

1101
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:56,040
Speaker 1: my god, he was running for his lives. Is there

1102
00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:58,520
Speaker 1: any throw he can't make? I think that is what's

1103
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:00,320
Speaker 1: going on in the field right now, because all that

1104
01:00:00,480 --> 01:00:02,600
Speaker 1: magic where he does they around the back, no look,

1105
01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,960
Speaker 1: through the legs, pass, it's biting him. I think they're beatable.

1106
01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:08,920
Speaker 1: I think they're run game is inconsistent as hell. I

1107
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:11,760
Speaker 1: think they've overdrafted that Edwards Hilaire, who's a fumbler and

1108
01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 1: a fumbler will always be a fumbler. And they've never

1109
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,720
Speaker 1: been more beatable. Bit since Mahomes show up, I wish

1110
01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:19,919
Speaker 1: Buffalo could play him now. Just get the team together

1111
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:22,160
Speaker 1: and can find up parking lot and play, because they've

1112
01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:24,800
Speaker 1: never been more beatable. Let's take that a step further,

1113
01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:28,120
Speaker 1: because I was watching some of that Chargers Chiefs game back. Yeah,

1114
01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 1: and this isn't the first week that we've seen some

1115
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:35,040
Speaker 1: undisciplined play on the defensive side of the ball for

1116
01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:37,200
Speaker 1: the Chiefs as well. I mean, I'm watching a two

1117
01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:40,960
Speaker 1: point conversion and Herbert has Mike Williams out on the

1118
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,120
Speaker 1: left side. They got nobody on him in a two

1119
01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:46,720
Speaker 1: point conversion situation. Tyrann Matthew is scrambling out there to

1120
01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:49,680
Speaker 1: go cover him, doesn't get to him in time, and he's,

1121
01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:52,280
Speaker 1: you know, hopping mad there in the end zone, yelling

1122
01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:55,360
Speaker 1: at his teammates. And that's not the only play I'm referencing, Kyle.

1123
01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:58,200
Speaker 1: There's some stuff where they just look all crossed up there.

1124
01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:01,160
Speaker 1: I don't know how much that Spagno always changed things there.

1125
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:04,440
Speaker 1: I know they had Chris Jones playing defensive end the

1126
01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 1: first week or two that didn't look like it was working.

1127
01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:11,000
Speaker 1: Move him back inside, get right, do something. But I mean,

1128
01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 1: they're giving up thirty burghers to people the last couple

1129
01:01:13,320 --> 01:01:17,920
Speaker 1: of weeks, Well, Brownie, we were led to believe that

1130
01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:22,360
Speaker 1: Spagnolo fixed everything. This is a very twenty nineteen conversation

1131
01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:25,080
Speaker 1: to have. Oh we got Kelsey and Tyrek and Mahomes

1132
01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:27,480
Speaker 1: is the future of the sport. But oh my gosh,

1133
01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:30,360
Speaker 1: this defense is soft. This defense is bad. That was

1134
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:33,760
Speaker 1: the old chief storyline in the era of Mahomes. They

1135
01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:36,000
Speaker 1: fixed it. They got pass rushers. Now they got the

1136
01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:38,840
Speaker 1: honey Badger. Spags fixed it and they won a Super

1137
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,280
Speaker 1: Bowl and they did. But now like it's all coming

1138
01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:44,880
Speaker 1: back since he got there, they never had this. This

1139
01:01:45,120 --> 01:01:47,720
Speaker 1: is the deal. He came in and that is the storyline.

1140
01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:49,600
Speaker 1: That is etchton Stone in Kansas City and led to

1141
01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:53,080
Speaker 1: a parade. No, totally beatable, totally soft. And I would

1142
01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:55,400
Speaker 1: say this about it was one thing to lose to

1143
01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:57,320
Speaker 1: the Ravens, all right. They lost to the Ravens by

1144
01:01:57,400 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 1: one point on the road. I don't even hold it

1145
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:01,560
Speaker 1: against them. There's the fourth time they played Lamar. He

1146
01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:06,360
Speaker 1: finally got them next week at home. Herbert never has

1147
01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:09,360
Speaker 1: played Mahomes, and Arrowhead never has played against bull fans,

1148
01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:11,720
Speaker 1: and Arrowhead and they lose that game. And they lose

1149
01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 1: that game and they had it. They blew that game.

1150
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,400
Speaker 1: And I don't even think their running game was that bad.

1151
01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:18,720
Speaker 1: I don't even think their defense got destroyed in that game.

1152
01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 1: They just gave it up and that's not something they've

1153
01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:25,000
Speaker 1: done in three years. So again, Bills fans, it's all

1154
01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:27,479
Speaker 1: setting up there. You got a Texans team that doesn't

1155
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:29,439
Speaker 1: even know what it is and got their quarterback hurt,

1156
01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:31,880
Speaker 1: and now you got the Chiefs fans, it's almost I

1157
01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:34,440
Speaker 1: hate to say this, you gotta beat the Chiefs like

1158
01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:37,120
Speaker 1: you have to this time. If you lose now, then

1159
01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:38,960
Speaker 1: it becomes a question of, oh my god, what are't

1160
01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,920
Speaker 1: we ever going to beat these guys who I'm already

1161
01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:45,680
Speaker 1: feeling the pressure of this week game. But if the

1162
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:49,000
Speaker 1: Chiefs aren't the biggest, baddest, toughest team in the AFC,

1163
01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:52,280
Speaker 1: then then who's going to be the toughest contenders going

1164
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:56,200
Speaker 1: up against the Bills in the conference? I guess it's

1165
01:02:56,920 --> 01:03:00,160
Speaker 1: the question is is it still Kansas City? Because we

1166
01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:01,800
Speaker 1: got caught up and we're doing it now, the three

1167
01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:04,120
Speaker 1: of us, but on Good Morning Football we're bashing them

1168
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:07,560
Speaker 1: and saying defense this Mahomes doing this, and we're wondering, like,

1169
01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:09,600
Speaker 1: all right, so are the Chiefs still sitting at home?

1170
01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:11,960
Speaker 1: I mean, like these idiots, have they not watched anything?

1171
01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:14,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if they are, And frankly, like, I

1172
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:16,520
Speaker 1: don't know what's going on with this team. They also

1173
01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:18,440
Speaker 1: have the off the field deal where they had got

1174
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:20,920
Speaker 1: a scare from Andy Reid, which is kind of unsettling

1175
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,560
Speaker 1: for the locker room. So we're so used to just

1176
01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:26,360
Speaker 1: saying the Chiefs and everybody else. If it's not the Chiefs,

1177
01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:29,520
Speaker 1: are we saying the Raiders are the best team in

1178
01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:32,240
Speaker 1: the AFC? I mean they're good, They're definitely good. I

1179
01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:35,680
Speaker 1: can't get there is in Baltimore, No, I mean they

1180
01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:38,240
Speaker 1: needed Detroit to just Detroit times a million to even

1181
01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:41,560
Speaker 1: be at the Lions. So it's probably the Bills. I

1182
01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 1: mean that Bills went over Washington was profound, and I

1183
01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:47,720
Speaker 1: know they lost to Pittsburgh and whatnot, But if I

1184
01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 1: had to pick one right now, I would probably say

1185
01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:55,080
Speaker 1: it's Buffalo. I hate to bring this up sitting between

1186
01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:59,440
Speaker 1: two Chicago natives, but I know you were rather I

1187
01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:02,400
Speaker 1: know you were rather outspoken about one. Justin fields first

1188
01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:06,000
Speaker 1: career start, which I mean, it was a dumpster fire

1189
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:09,440
Speaker 1: of epic proportions. And you know, we've seen people on

1190
01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:12,320
Speaker 1: various networks go off on Matt Naggie and the Bears

1191
01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:14,680
Speaker 1: and everything, and now they set him up to fail.

1192
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:19,880
Speaker 1: But you can't have Look, I love Jason Peters, he

1193
01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:21,840
Speaker 1: started his career here, He's going to be a first

1194
01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:24,560
Speaker 1: ballot Hall of Famer. But you can't put thirty nine

1195
01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:27,960
Speaker 1: year old Jason Peters who spent the summer eating chips

1196
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 1: on the couch one on one with Miles Garrett, like,

1197
01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:36,440
Speaker 1: what are you doing? Is there any way that you

1198
01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:39,120
Speaker 1: can explain your way out of what that game plan

1199
01:04:39,400 --> 01:04:44,080
Speaker 1: was for Justin Fields? I can't, and I've tried to

1200
01:04:44,280 --> 01:04:46,960
Speaker 1: for forty eight hours. This is why this storyline is

1201
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:50,280
Speaker 1: everywhere and why it resonates so much, because what you

1202
01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:55,880
Speaker 1: have is every armchair coach, every kid who played high

1203
01:04:55,920 --> 01:04:59,120
Speaker 1: school football a little bit or coaches flag football, is

1204
01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:02,760
Speaker 1: shipping in with two cents about WHOA, you gotta keep

1205
01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,360
Speaker 1: the tight ending, you gotta chip this, and you know what,

1206
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 1: like those people are right. They're right for the first

1207
01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:12,120
Speaker 1: times ever that we still haven't gotten an answer from

1208
01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:16,120
Speaker 1: Matt Naggie about coach what was the plan here? Like,

1209
01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:20,439
Speaker 1: what were you thinking? Explained to us, let us into

1210
01:05:20,480 --> 01:05:22,520
Speaker 1: the game plan of what didn't work that you did.

1211
01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:24,960
Speaker 1: He just hasn't explained it. All he did was come

1212
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:28,280
Speaker 1: out and announced that Nick Foles has entered the chat

1213
01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:31,000
Speaker 1: and now he's part of this mess when you just

1214
01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:33,840
Speaker 1: need to calm it down. I still don't know what

1215
01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:36,320
Speaker 1: they were doing against Miles Garrett. You think, all right,

1216
01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:40,520
Speaker 1: so they give up nine sacks after six, like that's

1217
01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:43,160
Speaker 1: when you like break glass in case of emergency, like

1218
01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 1: we have a crisis here. They weren't even getting warmed

1219
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:49,280
Speaker 1: up at six. So Matt Nagie is a great person.

1220
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:51,600
Speaker 1: I love him as a man. I've met him, I've

1221
01:05:51,680 --> 01:05:54,840
Speaker 1: hung out with him. He comes from a great pedigree background.

1222
01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:57,080
Speaker 1: I don't know what in the hell that was. But

1223
01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:58,840
Speaker 1: the Bears are around for one hundred and two years

1224
01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:02,320
Speaker 1: and they've never seen a worse performance than that. Don't

1225
01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:05,600
Speaker 1: even get me started. My blood's already boiling. My dad's

1226
01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:07,680
Speaker 1: gonna be calling me in a second once he hears

1227
01:06:07,720 --> 01:06:11,160
Speaker 1: this interview, going just adding on to why he's so

1228
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:16,400
Speaker 1: annoyed with the Chicago Bears, but with Justin Field's performance,

1229
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:19,240
Speaker 1: with what we seem from other rookies. Is there a

1230
01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:22,280
Speaker 1: best rookie quarterback at this point or are they all

1231
01:06:22,400 --> 01:06:25,959
Speaker 1: kind of on the same playing field through three weeks. Yeah,

1232
01:06:26,320 --> 01:06:29,680
Speaker 1: I guess. I guess Trey Lance by default because he

1233
01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:31,760
Speaker 1: just comes out and makes these cool little cameos. But

1234
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:33,600
Speaker 1: I'll tell you the one I'm most pissed off about.

1235
01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:36,000
Speaker 1: I hate that the mac Jones thing is not working.

1236
01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:40,160
Speaker 1: I hate it because a it's great Shakespearean theater. If

1237
01:06:40,200 --> 01:06:43,200
Speaker 1: the Brady replacement is suddenly amazing right off the bat,

1238
01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:46,160
Speaker 1: and be they've taken all the steam out of what

1239
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,360
Speaker 1: I've been calling Super Bowl fifty five and a half,

1240
01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:52,160
Speaker 1: which is this weekend at Foxborough. They can't get their

1241
01:06:52,160 --> 01:06:55,000
Speaker 1: act together. Mac Jones stores three picks and even the Brady.

1242
01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:57,600
Speaker 1: The Bucks didn't help by getting blown up by the Rams.

1243
01:06:57,640 --> 01:06:59,560
Speaker 1: So like, this was supposed to be the biggest regular

1244
01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:01,320
Speaker 1: season game of all time, This was supposed to have

1245
01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:03,480
Speaker 1: the hypes. And imagine if they came in and mac

1246
01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:05,240
Speaker 1: Jones is slinging it and he looks like the rookie

1247
01:07:05,280 --> 01:07:06,880
Speaker 1: the year and the Bucks starting to feed it. Now,

1248
01:07:06,920 --> 01:07:09,160
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't know, they'll roll over on the

1249
01:07:09,520 --> 01:07:12,560
Speaker 1: paths probably Tampa Whille and then there'll be a contentious

1250
01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:14,240
Speaker 1: handshake we have to look forward to at the end

1251
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:16,920
Speaker 1: of the game. So there is no great quarterback out

1252
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:19,760
Speaker 1: of the rookies right now. Lawrence goes tomorrow night against Cincinnati,

1253
01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:22,160
Speaker 1: But the one I am most upset with is mac

1254
01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:24,600
Speaker 1: Jones because I needed that regular season game. I needed

1255
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:27,320
Speaker 1: that thing. I just love. The Patriots fans this weekend

1256
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:30,240
Speaker 1: are going to be like that obsessive, compulsive ex boyfriend

1257
01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:33,520
Speaker 1: that just can't let go and wants them, wants him bad.

1258
01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:35,400
Speaker 1: You know, I want my girlfriend back. I want my

1259
01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:37,560
Speaker 1: girlfriend back, and that girlfriend is Tom Brady and he

1260
01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:40,040
Speaker 1: ain't coming back. He's there to say hi. And you

1261
01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:42,760
Speaker 1: just happened to cross paths with him on the street somewhere,

1262
01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:45,080
Speaker 1: and you think you can rekindle something and it's just

1263
01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:49,880
Speaker 1: not happening. I'm I'm soaking up. Do you think? All right?

1264
01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:51,560
Speaker 1: So we were talking about this this morning about I

1265
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:53,800
Speaker 1: don't think anybody thinks that the Patriots fans are gonna

1266
01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:57,080
Speaker 1: boo Brady. That's fine, But what if Brady does one

1267
01:07:57,120 --> 01:07:59,680
Speaker 1: of these rushing touchdowns that he does and does a

1268
01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:03,000
Speaker 1: huge emphatic spike and does one of those screams. Does

1269
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:06,640
Speaker 1: foxborrow boo him then, just out of their natural guttural reaction,

1270
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:09,760
Speaker 1: I think they do. Now. I think a better celebration

1271
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:11,800
Speaker 1: is if he does get into the end zone, he

1272
01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:15,360
Speaker 1: hands the ball to Gronk. Gronk spikes it emphatically and

1273
01:08:15,440 --> 01:08:17,720
Speaker 1: then they both kind of do the Queen's wave up

1274
01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:21,120
Speaker 1: to the crowd. Just do a full three sixty little

1275
01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:23,800
Speaker 1: queen wave action or do the prompt picture. I'm just

1276
01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:26,120
Speaker 1: as happy with that too. I mean, copy Josh and

1277
01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:28,800
Speaker 1: Dawson and make it go, make it go, I'd be

1278
01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:31,439
Speaker 1: I'd chaked that all up. I've Kyle, I've said it

1279
01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:34,559
Speaker 1: for over a year. The best win that the Bills

1280
01:08:34,600 --> 01:08:37,280
Speaker 1: had last year by far the most enjoyable. It's not

1281
01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:40,920
Speaker 1: even close. It's Week sixteen, Monday night at New England,

1282
01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:44,600
Speaker 1: Belichick slamming the phone into the Microsoft surface box. You

1283
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:48,760
Speaker 1: it's that is twenty years of angst in Buffalo released

1284
01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:53,640
Speaker 1: in one game. It was nothing comes close. The postgame

1285
01:08:53,760 --> 01:08:58,040
Speaker 1: Belichick McDermott, you know, embrace was not terseed, not cold.

1286
01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:00,160
Speaker 1: And I hope Belichick, I don't know. I talk to

1287
01:09:00,280 --> 01:09:01,680
Speaker 1: him in his ear and everything, and like I was

1288
01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:03,800
Speaker 1: like Oh my god, the whole world just changed. Never

1289
01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:05,519
Speaker 1: mind the AFC East, I feel like the whole NFL

1290
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:08,880
Speaker 1: just changed. That was a crazy game and that phone spike.

1291
01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:10,479
Speaker 1: I mean, that's as good as it gets. Yeah, that

1292
01:09:10,600 --> 01:09:14,320
Speaker 1: was a coming of age coaching moment for Sean McConnell. Well,

1293
01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:17,360
Speaker 1: all right, if we've seen Bill Belichick do that against

1294
01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:19,800
Speaker 1: the Bills in a loss, what do we think a

1295
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:22,720
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick cam would look like, or what do you

1296
01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:25,720
Speaker 1: think it would pick up when he's playing against his

1297
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:28,720
Speaker 1: former quarterback in Tom Brady. What do we hope it's

1298
01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 1: going to pick up? I guess, Well, how about just

1299
01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:35,200
Speaker 1: like some actual authentic human emotion. You know, Belichick has

1300
01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:37,800
Speaker 1: had that at times, Like there's times that comes out

1301
01:09:37,880 --> 01:09:40,240
Speaker 1: and he breaks character with the media when some good

1302
01:09:40,280 --> 01:09:42,599
Speaker 1: things have happened and when some terrible things have happened

1303
01:09:42,840 --> 01:09:45,840
Speaker 1: with the Patriots, and like, you know, it's it's an

1304
01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:48,519
Speaker 1: extreme example, but I remember when thel Aaron Hernandez thing broke,

1305
01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:51,559
Speaker 1: he came out and had this very very emotional, eloquent

1306
01:09:51,600 --> 01:09:53,920
Speaker 1: press conference went on for a long time. He has

1307
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:56,360
Speaker 1: that in him, for good and bad, And yet I

1308
01:09:56,439 --> 01:09:58,559
Speaker 1: worry he's just gonna do the poker face thing because

1309
01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:00,840
Speaker 1: we pull up a quote this morning Straegerdan on our

1310
01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:02,880
Speaker 1: show where a Belichick was asked, you know, what's it

1311
01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:05,360
Speaker 1: gonna be like? You know about Tom And I'm paraphrase

1312
01:10:05,400 --> 01:10:06,880
Speaker 1: in here, but he said, you know, we lost a

1313
01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:08,519
Speaker 1: lot of guys over the years, and then you see him,

1314
01:10:08,520 --> 01:10:10,200
Speaker 1: you know, like Chris Hogan is a guy that we

1315
01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:11,760
Speaker 1: lost and then we play against and what I hold on,

1316
01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:15,160
Speaker 1: hold on hold, Miss Hogan is a very nice player

1317
01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:16,880
Speaker 1: and a very nice story and a very nice guy.

1318
01:10:17,640 --> 01:10:20,800
Speaker 1: Do not mention Chris Hogan playing him again when it

1319
01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:23,439
Speaker 1: comes to Brady. That's not even in the same strat.

1320
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:25,680
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear about Grunk or Edelman or

1321
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:28,080
Speaker 1: and I don't even even any sports, So like, I

1322
01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:31,639
Speaker 1: find it disrespectful to the Brady equity to even mention

1323
01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:35,320
Speaker 1: Chris Hogan's name in any context. So that's how Bill's

1324
01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:37,920
Speaker 1: gonna play it. A might been asking, I mean, at

1325
01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:44,679
Speaker 1: least go ty law or Lawyer Malloy or Vince getting

1326
01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:47,960
Speaker 1: the vicinity my God, and I love and I love

1327
01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:50,519
Speaker 1: and I love Chris Hogan too. He's a former Bill

1328
01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:55,000
Speaker 1: Um you I laughed this morning watching you guys on

1329
01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:59,200
Speaker 1: Good Morning Football, because Maddie and I did a far

1330
01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:04,439
Speaker 1: briefer breakdown of the poor Lions fans sitting behind the uprights.

1331
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:09,759
Speaker 1: You had a metal pointer, you had five different waves

1332
01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:12,439
Speaker 1: of emotions in the crowd. I mean, this was an

1333
01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:16,439
Speaker 1: elaborate breakdown of the fans behind the uprights on Justin

1334
01:11:16,479 --> 01:11:19,280
Speaker 1: Tucker's game winning sixty six yard field goal, which for

1335
01:11:19,320 --> 01:11:21,120
Speaker 1: the record, should have been a seventy one yard or

1336
01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:24,120
Speaker 1: Kyle with a delay of game that wasn't called. But

1337
01:11:24,479 --> 01:11:29,639
Speaker 1: will bypass that what prompted you to get this deep

1338
01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:32,519
Speaker 1: in the weeds with the emotions behind the uprights? Here,

1339
01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:36,000
Speaker 1: I'll tell you, Brownie. When I was in college, my

1340
01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:39,040
Speaker 1: last year of college, I had a huge poster above

1341
01:11:39,120 --> 01:11:42,479
Speaker 1: my bed, and it was when Michael Jordan made the

1342
01:11:42,479 --> 01:11:45,200
Speaker 1: shot off for Brian Russell to beat the Jazz. There

1343
01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:47,519
Speaker 1: was this photograph that a lot of people had in Chicago,

1344
01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:50,280
Speaker 1: and Mattie, you'll remember this that it was of all

1345
01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:53,120
Speaker 1: these jazz fans and the balls splashing through the net,

1346
01:11:53,160 --> 01:11:55,400
Speaker 1: and all these jazz fans were just pulling their hair

1347
01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:58,160
Speaker 1: out and crying and despairing. And I used to sit

1348
01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:01,040
Speaker 1: there and look at that just for hours and just

1349
01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:04,120
Speaker 1: picking out my favorite person and who's feeling it the most,

1350
01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:07,520
Speaker 1: who doesn't care. It was the entire human emotional experience.

1351
01:12:07,920 --> 01:12:10,280
Speaker 1: So there's this shot of the same thing as the

1352
01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:14,559
Speaker 1: balls bouncing through the crossbars or the uprights. You can

1353
01:12:14,640 --> 01:12:17,400
Speaker 1: see all these Lions fans who are like, oh my god,

1354
01:12:17,439 --> 01:12:21,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna beat Lamar Jackson. We're oh my god. And

1355
01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:23,559
Speaker 1: you it's like pick your favorite. It's like a Where's

1356
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:26,040
Speaker 1: waal though, except you're looking for the most miserable or

1357
01:12:26,120 --> 01:12:29,240
Speaker 1: most shocked person. It's an unbelievable exercise. I had fun

1358
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:31,200
Speaker 1: doing it on TV this morning. I suggest everybody can

1359
01:12:31,240 --> 01:12:33,400
Speaker 1: look at the picture and do it yourself. It's fun. Yeah,

1360
01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:35,160
Speaker 1: I don't know their bills fans would be doing a

1361
01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:36,880
Speaker 1: whole lot of that because they've had some games like

1362
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:39,200
Speaker 1: that over the year they have. It was hard not

1363
01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:43,639
Speaker 1: to feel for Lions fans, especially knowing the penalty probably

1364
01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:45,800
Speaker 1: should have been called and wasn't, so it was just

1365
01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:47,960
Speaker 1: a whole mess. But you know what they say, Brownie,

1366
01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:49,759
Speaker 1: you know what I'm say in response to that penalty.

1367
01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:52,400
Speaker 1: They would have tried it from seventy one and he

1368
01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:54,880
Speaker 1: would have made it. And I know that he gave

1369
01:12:54,920 --> 01:12:56,920
Speaker 1: it and he just landed right at sixty seven on

1370
01:12:57,000 --> 01:13:00,840
Speaker 1: the board s Sport Field. They could have tried it

1371
01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:04,439
Speaker 1: from ninety seven Browns and we kicked it, and a

1372
01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:06,880
Speaker 1: pigeon would have flown out of the rafters and grabbed

1373
01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:11,000
Speaker 1: the ball cross bars whenever they needed. He would have

1374
01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:13,120
Speaker 1: made all right. I think we wrap up. I think

1375
01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:16,759
Speaker 1: we wrapped there on carrier, pigeon out of the rafters. Kyle,

1376
01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:19,120
Speaker 1: thanks as always for the time. We will catch you

1377
01:13:19,200 --> 01:13:21,639
Speaker 1: up with you next week where we hopefully are talking

1378
01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:25,000
Speaker 1: about a thirty point Builds victory. I'll give it to

1379
01:13:25,040 --> 01:13:28,240
Speaker 1: you forty one to eleven, that is precisely at thirty

1380
01:13:28,240 --> 01:13:32,360
Speaker 1: elevens Yes, forty one to eleven, and then we'll get

Speaker 1: leading the Billies to a forty five twenty two win

1397
01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:33,000
Speaker 1: over defending Section six Class A champ South Park. Billy's

1398
01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:34,479
Speaker 1: even their record of two and two with the win.

1399
01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:37,760
Speaker 1: Kurzanski has been coaching will South since two thousand and seven,

1400
01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:40,000
Speaker 1: led the Billies to four league titles and advanced to

1401
01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:43,840
Speaker 1: the Class A title game on two occasions. Section five

1402
01:14:44,040 --> 01:14:48,000
Speaker 1: It's Avon coach Andy Englert named the Rochester Regions Coach

1403
01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:50,040
Speaker 1: of the Week after leading the program to a twenty

1404
01:14:50,160 --> 01:14:53,920
Speaker 1: six to six victory over Kalmum Byron Bergen last week.

1405
01:14:54,200 --> 01:14:56,080
Speaker 1: With the win, their squad improved to four and o

1406
01:14:56,200 --> 01:14:58,960
Speaker 1: on the season. Englert has coached at Avon for twenty

1407
01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:01,920
Speaker 1: four seasons, posted a record of one, nineteen and ninety.

1408
01:15:01,960 --> 01:15:04,120
Speaker 1: In that span, he's let to have on to five

1409
01:15:04,680 --> 01:15:10,640
Speaker 1: Section five Class D titles. So that's that one thing

1410
01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:12,560
Speaker 1: we've got to do, though, Maddie is we've got to

1411
01:15:12,640 --> 01:15:16,200
Speaker 1: get to the tweet sheet to find out who are

1412
01:15:16,240 --> 01:15:18,439
Speaker 1: listeners and viewers believe is the biggest challenger to the

1413
01:15:18,479 --> 01:15:20,800
Speaker 1: Bills in the AFC through the first three weeks. And

1414
01:15:21,240 --> 01:15:23,280
Speaker 1: JT leaves us off on the tweet sheet, which is

1415
01:15:23,320 --> 01:15:25,879
Speaker 1: brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official equipment

1416
01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:30,639
Speaker 1: moving provider of the Buffalo Bills, and JT says, no one,

1417
01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:34,880
Speaker 1: we are the biggest challenger to ourselves. This seems like

1418
01:15:34,960 --> 01:15:38,200
Speaker 1: a very deep psychological thing that JT is doing here.

1419
01:15:38,600 --> 01:15:40,720
Speaker 1: We are on top of the power rankings, and like

1420
01:15:40,880 --> 01:15:44,360
Speaker 1: Tasker says, we just have to play better on that day.

1421
01:15:44,479 --> 01:15:47,320
Speaker 1: We are scheduled one game at a time. If we

1422
01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:50,040
Speaker 1: stay focused and stay the course and believe in the process,

1423
01:15:50,479 --> 01:15:54,400
Speaker 1: I know we can complete the process. JT going all

1424
01:15:54,560 --> 01:15:59,160
Speaker 1: zen on us there. JAT also sounds like a coach.

1425
01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:02,719
Speaker 1: I mean, how many times have we heard this team

1426
01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:06,080
Speaker 1: say on games where we have lost or not played

1427
01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:09,840
Speaker 1: as well, we beat ourselves. We shot ourselves in the foot,

1428
01:16:09,960 --> 01:16:13,000
Speaker 1: So yeah, a lot of times, maybe the Bills can

1429
01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:16,280
Speaker 1: get in their own way against some tough opponents or

1430
01:16:16,560 --> 01:16:20,559
Speaker 1: against a team in the Steelers, where we suffered our

1431
01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:25,439
Speaker 1: first loss of the season. But I'm buying it. Yeah,

1432
01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:29,240
Speaker 1: I mean, he's parroting a lot of what coach McDermott

1433
01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:31,280
Speaker 1: has said for the better part of the last five years, right,

1434
01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:33,640
Speaker 1: So I can't fall to him for that. Tiffany on

1435
01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:37,240
Speaker 1: the tweet sheet says Cleveland they have a solid defense

1436
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:40,160
Speaker 1: with probably the best defensive end in the NFL in

1437
01:16:40,320 --> 01:16:44,639
Speaker 1: Miles Garrett. Now, Cleveland has played well just about every

1438
01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:48,000
Speaker 1: game this season. Tough loss in Week one at Kansas City.

1439
01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:52,360
Speaker 1: I think they had a team that basically rolled over

1440
01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:54,960
Speaker 1: and died last week in the Bears. So I don't

1441
01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:57,759
Speaker 1: know that that's an accurate measuring stick for where Cleveland

1442
01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:00,679
Speaker 1: is right now. But as I said earlier in the show,

1443
01:17:01,200 --> 01:17:04,240
Speaker 1: I think you could argue that Buffalo and Cleveland are

1444
01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:09,000
Speaker 1: probably the two teams with the most complete rosters, and

1445
01:17:09,240 --> 01:17:12,160
Speaker 1: they have some elite talent to boot, as mentioned Myles Garrett.

1446
01:17:12,560 --> 01:17:14,400
Speaker 1: So I think that's why they are firmly in the

1447
01:17:14,479 --> 01:17:19,240
Speaker 1: AFC conversation. Yeah, I mean, I agree with that. Cleveland

1448
01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:21,320
Speaker 1: was a good team last year. They almost got by

1449
01:17:21,400 --> 01:17:24,320
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. I remember watching the end of

1450
01:17:24,360 --> 01:17:27,479
Speaker 1: that game being like, just beat them. I don't want

1451
01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:29,960
Speaker 1: to play the Chiefs in the AFC Championship game. So

1452
01:17:31,120 --> 01:17:34,400
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns were right there. We knew they were going

1453
01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:37,200
Speaker 1: to have another good team this season just because of

1454
01:17:37,360 --> 01:17:39,720
Speaker 1: how balanced they are both sides of the football. Their

1455
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:43,960
Speaker 1: defense is really good. Their defense is going to continue

1456
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:45,880
Speaker 1: to stay good throughout the season. So this is a

1457
01:17:45,960 --> 01:17:49,040
Speaker 1: team that I would watch out for. And Baker Mayfield,

1458
01:17:49,120 --> 01:17:51,800
Speaker 1: he's a good quarterback too. They've got some good running

1459
01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:54,400
Speaker 1: backs who can help them out as well. Yeah, I mean,

1460
01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:56,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if Baker's the kind of quarterback that

1461
01:17:56,720 --> 01:17:58,160
Speaker 1: can get you all the way to the Promised Land

1462
01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:02,639
Speaker 1: by himself. So Cleveland has wisely loaded up on defense

1463
01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:05,240
Speaker 1: to support him with a good defense and with a

1464
01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:08,040
Speaker 1: great one two punch running game with Kareem Hunt and

1465
01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:12,160
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb, along with probably one of the top five

1466
01:18:12,240 --> 01:18:16,439
Speaker 1: offensive lines in football. Just a really really complete roster.

1467
01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:19,320
Speaker 1: Jack says, I don't know how you still can't say

1468
01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:23,040
Speaker 1: Kansas City, which Mannie and I did both say, all

1469
01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:25,360
Speaker 1: that talent on offense, a tight end no one can cover.

1470
01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:27,920
Speaker 1: Great coach and oh yeah that QB. I know they've

1471
01:18:27,920 --> 01:18:29,680
Speaker 1: stumbled out of the gates, but they are still better

1472
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:32,759
Speaker 1: in anyone game than most other teams. Until the Bills

1473
01:18:32,800 --> 01:18:35,760
Speaker 1: beat them, they remain the threat. Ace and Jack. Jack

1474
01:18:35,800 --> 01:18:38,200
Speaker 1: and me are on the same page. Good on you, Jack.

1475
01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:40,320
Speaker 1: You want to be the man, you gotta beat the man.

1476
01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:42,960
Speaker 1: And that's what Casey is. They're the big bully in

1477
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:46,160
Speaker 1: the room, and until you take the bully down, they're

1478
01:18:46,160 --> 01:18:47,720
Speaker 1: going to be the top dog. And I don't see

1479
01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:51,400
Speaker 1: any way around that. So that's why that's why this

1480
01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:56,840
Speaker 1: Week five game Maddie looms so large. And there is

1481
01:18:56,920 --> 01:18:59,679
Speaker 1: a week in between that Week five game, which means

1482
01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:02,560
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs have a week to figure some

1483
01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:05,479
Speaker 1: of that stuff out on defense and for Patrick Mahomes

1484
01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:08,160
Speaker 1: to figure out some of that stuff on his own

1485
01:19:08,280 --> 01:19:10,880
Speaker 1: in terms of the interceptions that he has thrown so

1486
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:13,880
Speaker 1: far this season. Josh Allen didn't have a great two

1487
01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:17,000
Speaker 1: starts to the twenty twenty one season, but in Week

1488
01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:19,479
Speaker 1: three Josh figured it out. It can be done in

1489
01:19:19,560 --> 01:19:22,479
Speaker 1: a week. The Kansas City Chiefs are good enough team

1490
01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:25,080
Speaker 1: to where I think they can figure some things out

1491
01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:27,720
Speaker 1: in a week. Although I don't think they're going to

1492
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:31,640
Speaker 1: completely repair this defense. I think this defense could have

1493
01:19:31,800 --> 01:19:34,680
Speaker 1: some holes going forward in the season and not be

1494
01:19:34,880 --> 01:19:37,519
Speaker 1: as stout as they were last year. Not that they've

1495
01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:41,320
Speaker 1: really ever been leading with their defense. It's always been

1496
01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:44,120
Speaker 1: their offense, and it was Spagnola who came in to

1497
01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:48,839
Speaker 1: save the day for their defense and put together defense

1498
01:19:48,960 --> 01:19:52,320
Speaker 1: that could at least help them get to the championship

1499
01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:56,400
Speaker 1: in the last two years. Right, And the Chiefs figure

1500
01:19:56,439 --> 01:19:59,719
Speaker 1: to get healthy this week because they'll be playing the Eagles.

1501
01:20:00,400 --> 01:20:03,080
Speaker 1: Granted it is in Philadelphia, but the Eagles are coming

1502
01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:06,240
Speaker 1: off a short week and I just don't know that

1503
01:20:06,320 --> 01:20:09,160
Speaker 1: they have the horses to compete with. The chief says

1504
01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:11,400
Speaker 1: Andy Reid makes a homecoming of sorts, and good news

1505
01:20:11,439 --> 01:20:13,160
Speaker 1: for Andy Reid, he was back at work today, so

1506
01:20:13,280 --> 01:20:16,720
Speaker 1: it looks like that little hospital stay has been put

1507
01:20:17,120 --> 01:20:21,439
Speaker 1: behind him, which is certainly good news. Herb on the

1508
01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:25,120
Speaker 1: tweet sheet says in the AFC East, absolutely no one

1509
01:20:25,479 --> 01:20:28,639
Speaker 1: in the AFC Conference, I would have to say the Chiefs,

1510
01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:30,880
Speaker 1: even though they have lost two of three, we all

1511
01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:33,360
Speaker 1: know they will be there in the end. Cleveland also

1512
01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:37,719
Speaker 1: bothers me. Their defense is totally legit, Like the Cleveland

1513
01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:41,080
Speaker 1: is an annoyance to him, that's awesome. I don't think

1514
01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:43,519
Speaker 1: Mayfield can keep up with Josh in a shootout, though,

1515
01:20:43,720 --> 01:20:45,880
Speaker 1: See now that's I agree there too. Like I was

1516
01:20:45,960 --> 01:20:48,559
Speaker 1: just saying, I don't know if Mayfield is a guy

1517
01:20:49,080 --> 01:20:53,559
Speaker 1: that can completely carry his team's offense. But Cleveland has

1518
01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:56,559
Speaker 1: wisely built it around him. He's got enough receiving targets,

1519
01:20:56,560 --> 01:20:58,200
Speaker 1: he's got a really good offensive line, he's got a

1520
01:20:58,280 --> 01:20:59,800
Speaker 1: running game. We're you gonna just turn a hand the

1521
01:20:59,840 --> 01:21:03,400
Speaker 1: ball all off if he needs to. Yeah, I could

1522
01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:07,040
Speaker 1: see Cleveland being an issue for many teams, But when

1523
01:21:07,080 --> 01:21:10,280
Speaker 1: you pair Cleveland up with the Buffalo Bills, I agree

1524
01:21:10,360 --> 01:21:13,479
Speaker 1: with that comment. And I don't know if Baker can

1525
01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:16,240
Speaker 1: win in a shootout with Josh Allen. If this offense

1526
01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:19,360
Speaker 1: keeps performing in the way that it has last week,

1527
01:21:19,479 --> 01:21:22,360
Speaker 1: if they keep that average of thirty points up, just

1528
01:21:22,520 --> 01:21:25,400
Speaker 1: over thirty points a game up, it's hard for teams

1529
01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:28,120
Speaker 1: to keep up with the team who's scoring that much

1530
01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:30,840
Speaker 1: and getting into the end zone as much as they are,

1531
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:34,160
Speaker 1: and of course holding onto the ball as long as

1532
01:21:34,240 --> 01:21:37,240
Speaker 1: they are. If they're scoring that many points. So if

1533
01:21:37,280 --> 01:21:39,479
Speaker 1: the Bills continue to play like they have, teams are

1534
01:21:39,479 --> 01:21:42,200
Speaker 1: going to have to score a lot against Buffalo, and

1535
01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:44,519
Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard to score a lot against Buffalo

1536
01:21:44,680 --> 01:21:47,200
Speaker 1: if the defense continues to play the way that it

1537
01:21:47,280 --> 01:21:50,439
Speaker 1: has to start the season as well. Finally, Thomas on

1538
01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:53,000
Speaker 1: the tweet sheet says, it's still early to determine whom

1539
01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:56,439
Speaker 1: shall be in contention for the AFC. This guy sounds

1540
01:21:56,439 --> 01:21:59,600
Speaker 1: like an English teacher, but the cream always rises to

1541
01:21:59,640 --> 01:22:04,360
Speaker 1: the top. Casey, Titans, Ravens, and Browns will all be

1542
01:22:04,479 --> 01:22:06,680
Speaker 1: there in the end. In my opinion, the Titans and

1543
01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:09,880
Speaker 1: the Browns will be serious challengers. Casey may show up

1544
01:22:09,920 --> 01:22:13,439
Speaker 1: on Sunday Night Football and then the Titans. Yeah, this

1545
01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:16,679
Speaker 1: Week five and Week six game coming up here. Once

1546
01:22:16,720 --> 01:22:19,040
Speaker 1: we get past Houston, it's going to cause I have

1547
01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:20,720
Speaker 1: a feeling it's just going to cause a lot of

1548
01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:25,000
Speaker 1: consternation for Bill's fans because they remember what happened last

1549
01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:27,599
Speaker 1: year when they had to play these two teams back

1550
01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:29,840
Speaker 1: to back. And the difference this year is opposed to

1551
01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:32,280
Speaker 1: last year. Maddie. Both of them are on the road,

1552
01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:36,960
Speaker 1: both of them are in prime time. But the nice

1553
01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:39,679
Speaker 1: thing is going to be Hopefully none of these games

1554
01:22:39,720 --> 01:22:42,679
Speaker 1: are delayed by a day or two or three because

1555
01:22:42,720 --> 01:22:46,680
Speaker 1: of COVID. Hopefully they stay on schedule a Sunday night

1556
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:50,160
Speaker 1: and a Monday night. I also like that maybe two

1557
01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:55,920
Speaker 1: years ago, back to back night games, high stakes, big crowd,

1558
01:22:56,320 --> 01:22:58,720
Speaker 1: a lot of attention, national at tension being put on

1559
01:22:58,800 --> 01:23:01,719
Speaker 1: these next two games and five and week six. Looking

1560
01:23:01,840 --> 01:23:04,720
Speaker 1: past the Texans, I think this is a team that

1561
01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:08,360
Speaker 1: is mature enough that can have two big back to

1562
01:23:08,439 --> 01:23:12,639
Speaker 1: back games. Years past, I don't know. I think when

1563
01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:16,760
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, twenty twenty, there was a little bit

1564
01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:19,840
Speaker 1: of a learning going on in terms of having those

1565
01:23:20,000 --> 01:23:22,840
Speaker 1: night games and what your schedule looks like the following week,

1566
01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:24,920
Speaker 1: what your schedule looks like leading up to that week,

1567
01:23:24,960 --> 01:23:26,880
Speaker 1: because this is a team who is used to a

1568
01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:28,960
Speaker 1: lot of one pm kicks and now that's not the

1569
01:23:29,080 --> 01:23:32,240
Speaker 1: case for them. So I don't see these two night

1570
01:23:32,320 --> 01:23:36,000
Speaker 1: games being an issue in terms of scheduling and mindset

1571
01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:39,679
Speaker 1: wise and getting through the week with those things. But yeah,

1572
01:23:39,920 --> 01:23:42,120
Speaker 1: two big games coming up for the Buffalo Bills. It's

1573
01:23:42,120 --> 01:23:45,200
Speaker 1: going to be talked about a lot all right. Time

1574
01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:49,280
Speaker 1: for a little NFL true false Maddie, are you ready NFL? True? False?

1575
01:23:49,680 --> 01:23:51,960
Speaker 1: Do it brought to you a boy Yancey's fancy New

1576
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:55,240
Speaker 1: York's artists and cheese and we begin here. None of

1577
01:23:55,360 --> 01:23:58,920
Speaker 1: the first round quarterbacks were ready to start. You were

1578
01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:01,080
Speaker 1: just asking Kyle about this in the last segment. What

1579
01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:03,759
Speaker 1: the heck's going on with the first round rookie qbs?

1580
01:24:04,040 --> 01:24:09,320
Speaker 1: It has not been pretty. This is tough because I

1581
01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:13,000
Speaker 1: think they're I think they're good quarterbacks. I think some

1582
01:24:13,200 --> 01:24:16,000
Speaker 1: of them have maybe not been dealt the best cards

1583
01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:18,280
Speaker 1: to play with in the first three weeks of the season,

1584
01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:22,040
Speaker 1: and because of that, I think it's been a bad

1585
01:24:22,200 --> 01:24:26,360
Speaker 1: environment or not the best setting or environment for them

1586
01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:30,920
Speaker 1: to play in. Does that make them not ready to start?

1587
01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:37,760
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think it's not all on them.

1588
01:24:37,880 --> 01:24:40,519
Speaker 1: And I kind of talked about this with Justin Field's

1589
01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:44,320
Speaker 1: performance and how it's not all in Justin Fields that

1590
01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:48,080
Speaker 1: it was his fault that they had forty seven total

1591
01:24:48,200 --> 01:24:51,120
Speaker 1: yards of offense and look terrible. I think other people

1592
01:24:51,200 --> 01:24:54,600
Speaker 1: share that blame. So I'm going to say from the

1593
01:24:54,680 --> 01:25:00,439
Speaker 1: thought process of it wasn't just the quarterbacks. The rookie

1594
01:25:00,520 --> 01:25:04,240
Speaker 1: quarterbacks that made themselves not capable to start because of

1595
01:25:04,320 --> 01:25:08,040
Speaker 1: their skill set. I think it was also coupled with

1596
01:25:08,880 --> 01:25:13,360
Speaker 1: what they were dealt in terms of opponent, health of

1597
01:25:13,479 --> 01:25:16,960
Speaker 1: their team playmakers that they did or did not have.

1598
01:25:18,360 --> 01:25:21,160
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say false on this one. It's kind

1599
01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:24,320
Speaker 1: of a mood question for me, because our rookie quarterbacks

1600
01:25:24,400 --> 01:25:27,639
Speaker 1: ever really ready to start, Like, there are so few

1601
01:25:27,840 --> 01:25:32,880
Speaker 1: quarterbacks who start as rookies that look really good right

1602
01:25:33,000 --> 01:25:37,519
Speaker 1: from the jump. I mean, the last one I can

1603
01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:41,519
Speaker 1: think of is Dan Marino, who started from the jump

1604
01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:45,839
Speaker 1: and looked great beyond him. Like I mean, Patrick Mahomes

1605
01:25:45,840 --> 01:25:48,000
Speaker 1: doesn't county and start till a second year. He plays.

1606
01:25:48,040 --> 01:25:49,720
Speaker 1: Started one game as rookie year at the end of

1607
01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:55,040
Speaker 1: the season in a throwaway game that the Chiefs didn't need. Roethlisberger,

1608
01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:58,640
Speaker 1: who had a number one defense and a great running game, survived,

1609
01:25:59,360 --> 01:26:02,560
Speaker 1: but he wasn't the reason they were winning. Threw the

1610
01:26:02,640 --> 01:26:06,360
Speaker 1: ball fifteen times a game. Jerome bettis bashing into people,

1611
01:26:06,560 --> 01:26:08,680
Speaker 1: you know, thirty five times again, and I don't do much.

1612
01:26:09,680 --> 01:26:15,320
Speaker 1: I don't know the rookie quarterbacks are ever ready. So

1613
01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:18,120
Speaker 1: I'm I guess I'm looking at that question far different

1614
01:26:18,160 --> 01:26:21,639
Speaker 1: than you are, in a much different way. So I'm

1615
01:26:21,680 --> 01:26:24,599
Speaker 1: gonna say true because rookie quarterbacks never really are ready,

1616
01:26:25,600 --> 01:26:28,200
Speaker 1: especially the first three weeks of the season. They're still

1617
01:26:28,320 --> 01:26:32,080
Speaker 1: learning on the fly, their heads spinning around like the Exorcist.

1618
01:26:32,160 --> 01:26:34,320
Speaker 1: I mean, they don't know what's coming at him. So

1619
01:26:34,880 --> 01:26:37,240
Speaker 1: that's why I say that. All right. We that was

1620
01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:40,439
Speaker 1: an abbreviated version of NFL True Balls because our analysis

1621
01:26:40,560 --> 01:26:43,280
Speaker 1: quickly ran us out of time. There brought to you

1622
01:26:43,360 --> 01:26:46,120
Speaker 1: by Auntie's Fancy New York's artists in Cheese. Matty and

1623
01:26:46,200 --> 01:26:47,920
Speaker 1: I take a break here, but we wrap things up

1624
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:50,360
Speaker 1: next here on One Bill's Live, presented by Kalid to Health.

1625
01:26:50,400 --> 01:27:06,040
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. I'm now for reads, Milestones raids.

1626
01:27:06,120 --> 01:27:09,200
Speaker 1: Jen's the official jeweler of the Buffalo Bills. Bill's quarterback

1627
01:27:09,280 --> 01:27:12,479
Speaker 1: Josh Allen has surpassed Hall of Famer Jim Kelly for

1628
01:27:12,600 --> 01:27:14,880
Speaker 1: the most games with three hundred plus passing yards and

1629
01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:20,000
Speaker 1: four plus passing touchdowns in Bill's history. This is the

1630
01:27:20,120 --> 01:27:23,679
Speaker 1: ninth time in team history with zero first half points

1631
01:27:23,720 --> 01:27:27,599
Speaker 1: allowed in back to back games. That's from last week. Guys,

1632
01:27:27,600 --> 01:27:29,680
Speaker 1: what he got up there on the screen. We got

1633
01:27:29,880 --> 01:27:32,400
Speaker 1: passing yards totals. You're going you're talking about the Miami game.

1634
01:27:33,439 --> 01:27:36,719
Speaker 1: So yeah, cool thing for Josh Allen as he surpassed

1635
01:27:36,720 --> 01:27:38,320
Speaker 1: a bunch of people. There's only like a couple of

1636
01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:41,000
Speaker 1: Hall of famers that have done it as many times

1637
01:27:41,040 --> 01:27:44,439
Speaker 1: in his career too, Maddie, So what do we think

1638
01:27:44,479 --> 01:27:49,439
Speaker 1: we get from Josh this week? Because I'm expecting this

1639
01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:53,120
Speaker 1: game to kind of get out of hand quickly, and

1640
01:27:53,320 --> 01:27:56,200
Speaker 1: so that leads me to think that Josh won't be

1641
01:27:56,280 --> 01:27:58,760
Speaker 1: throwing it all over the place because the score will say,

1642
01:27:59,439 --> 01:28:01,599
Speaker 1: let's just were in the game as quickly as possible

1643
01:28:01,720 --> 01:28:03,680
Speaker 1: and run the thing. Are you kind of seeing it

1644
01:28:03,800 --> 01:28:08,120
Speaker 1: that way or I am? I also see a game

1645
01:28:08,200 --> 01:28:11,800
Speaker 1: where Josh Allen doesn't play all four quarters. I think

1646
01:28:11,880 --> 01:28:16,320
Speaker 1: we might see another Mitchell Trubisky appearance to close out

1647
01:28:16,400 --> 01:28:18,960
Speaker 1: the game if the Bills are in a situation like

1648
01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:22,719
Speaker 1: they were last week. But I see another three hundred

1649
01:28:22,720 --> 01:28:26,840
Speaker 1: passing yard game for him. I think it only makes sense. Yes,

1650
01:28:27,920 --> 01:28:30,080
Speaker 1: I think it only makes sense for him to have

1651
01:28:30,479 --> 01:28:34,559
Speaker 1: a similar game like he did against the Washington football team.

1652
01:28:35,200 --> 01:28:38,800
Speaker 1: I think this Houston Texans defense is not the best.

1653
01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:43,720
Speaker 1: They are middle of the league in some statistical categories.

1654
01:28:43,840 --> 01:28:45,680
Speaker 1: They're near the bottom of the league and some they're

1655
01:28:45,720 --> 01:28:49,280
Speaker 1: allowing twenty eight points per game, they're allowing two hundred

1656
01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:51,680
Speaker 1: and sixty nine passing yards per game, so I think

1657
01:28:51,760 --> 01:28:56,679
Speaker 1: he does go over that. But yeah, could they try

1658
01:28:56,760 --> 01:29:00,360
Speaker 1: and maybe start running the ball at times just to

1659
01:29:02,200 --> 01:29:05,320
Speaker 1: run time off the clock. Yeah, I could see that too,

1660
01:29:05,439 --> 01:29:07,760
Speaker 1: But I do think he has a similar game. Maybe

1661
01:29:07,880 --> 01:29:10,479
Speaker 1: not a five touchdown game, but I think it's similar. Yeah,

1662
01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:13,439
Speaker 1: all right, Maddie, thanks for your help here on Monday

1663
01:29:13,439 --> 01:29:15,360
Speaker 1: and Tuesday. We'll see you again on Friday. We got

1664
01:29:15,560 --> 01:29:18,639
Speaker 1: Ruben Brown in tomorrow helping me out as Steve still

1665
01:29:18,680 --> 01:29:20,360
Speaker 1: out of the office. We'll see you that
