Yeah, 0:02:13.480 --> 0:02:18.200 here were my options yesterday. My family, as parts of 0:02:18.200 --> 0:02:23.799 my family anyway, they for some reason last summer scheduled 0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:30.040 on sun on a Sunday afternoon in December, a trip 0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:33.960 to the Polar Express in grape Vine, which is a 0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:38.840 grape Vine, Texas is the Christmas Capital of the world, 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:40.400 is the way they describe it. 0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:44.280 And so everyone loads up on a little train and 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:50.400 you travel to the North Pole. And so that was 0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:53.919 scheduled for four thirty yesterday afternoon, and I'll. 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:56.560 Darn it, I can't go on the Polar Express because 0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:59.200 I got to watch the Cowboy game, and I got 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:03.120 about through the first quarter of the Cowboy game, and 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:06.320 I wanted to get a reservation on the Polar Express. 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:09.880 I could have spent my afternoon much better had I 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:10.280 gone to. 0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:12.200 The Polar Express and gone to the North Pole. 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:12.839 Very much. 0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:20.040 Yeah, that was, yes, pretty deflating. And my take from 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:23.080 that game, and I know everybody's making a big deal 0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:27.560 out of can't win on the road, they would have lost. 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:30.840 To use Jason Garrett's line, they would have lost that 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:34.320 game at home, away the parking lot or the moon. 0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:39.600 That didn't matter where they were. Being on the road 0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:43.160 doesn't mean that you got to let some guy name 0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:48.600 James Cook rush for one hundred and seventy nine yards 0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:53.960 one seventy nine and the Bills as a team for 0:03:54.120 --> 0:04:01.040 two hundred and sixty six yards to sixty six. The 0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:03.120 only thing I can think of more than that was 0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:06.480 the playoff loss at the Rams for two seventy three. 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:13.400 Well, that two thousand season, the Cowboys exceeded that, but 0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:15.560 that that doesn't count. That was a that wasn't a 0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:18.080 bad team, but also got. 0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:22.520 The defensive coordinator fired and Michael Parsons was drafted the 0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:23.280 following year. 0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:25.560 I mean to fix this thing. 0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:30.680 They they only had to throw the ball fifteen times 0:04:30.880 --> 0:04:34.400 to score thirty one points fifteen. They didn't even have 0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:35.080 one hundred. 0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:36.760 Ninety four yards passing. 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:39.839 Not even one hundred yards passing. All this talk before 0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:43.839 the game, Dak versus Josh and all this stuff. No, 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:47.400 it came down to some guy named James Cook, which 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:50.320 I found out, and I didn't realize he was Delvin Cook. 0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:52.200 He talked about it. 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:55.360 But but you went to Georgia. 0:04:55.640 --> 0:05:00.599 The names are his name is James Delvin Cook, and 0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:03.400 Delvin's name is Delvin James Cook. 0:05:03.920 --> 0:05:08.440 Wait, really, yes, that's interested. 0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:11.200 And however you want to slice it. They looked like 0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:15.040 they acted like they didn't know number four. They must 0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:17.120 have thought he was a wide receiver or something. I 0:05:17.120 --> 0:05:20.440 don't know. They were allergic so tackling him. 0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:23.680 They just gave him the ball, whether it was to 0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:26.159 run the ball or to catch the ball. He was 0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:27.800 acting like a receiver half the time. 0:05:27.880 --> 0:05:31.320 Well, he did catch two passes for forty two yards 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:35.560 along of twenty four, and I believe he had the 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:38.839 eight was an eighteen yard touchdown. Yes, that they didn't 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.720 bother to cover, just let him float out there all 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:42.600 by himself. 0:05:42.680 --> 0:05:44.760 Not that it matters at this point since the game 0:05:44.839 --> 0:05:49.720 is over. But what were his stats going back the 0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:51.600 past few games? I know we talked to them. 0:05:52.680 --> 0:05:56.599 He's been changed play callers ever since Joe Brady became 0:05:56.680 --> 0:06:00.799 the play caller. He started using cooks more and he's 0:06:00.920 --> 0:06:02.000 singular cook cook. 0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:02.400 Yeah. 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:04.960 Sorry, Well it looked like there was a bunch of 0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:08.800 cooks out there and there wasn't too many cooks in 0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:11.320 the kitchen for this one. 0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:13.800 Some guy Dave James cook. 0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:18.160 Ah, it only was good enough to get a scholarship 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:20.320 to Georgia. 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:23.880 That was probably a poor performance for what he did 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.120 at Georgia seventy nine. 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.760 Oh one of those days. 0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:35.520 Well, but you know what, their game plan reminded me 0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:40.200 of what took place in Arizona when they gave up 0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:42.200 two hundred and twenty two yards rushing. 0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:45.840 It's what we couldn't believe the Giants didn't do when 0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:47.039 they played the cowboy. 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:48.680 Right, just give the ball to Barkley. 0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:51.919 And they attacked the edges. They attacked the edges. The 0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:55.719 Cowboys acted like they'd never seen a running back go 0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:59.120 to the edge. They didn't hold down the edge. And 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:01.760 when they won big and you guys have heard me 0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:04.960 say this before, two tight ends or tight end in 0:07:05.040 --> 0:07:07.560 a full back. The Cowboys are out there with a 0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:11.760 bunch of safeties and they get out physical at the 0:07:11.800 --> 0:07:15.080 point of attack at some point. Sometimes you got to 0:07:15.120 --> 0:07:18.720 play three linebackers, and you know, and against these good 0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:21.080 teams that want to run the ball, and they obviously 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:23.920 came in with the idea that they could run the 0:07:23.960 --> 0:07:27.240 ball on the edge of the Cowboys. And that's not 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:31.440 a novel idea. People have done that before. And you know, 0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:35.000 somebody was like, well, how did Mozie Smith play? You know, 0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:38.640 I'm glad Mike McCarthy said, Hey, this was a group effort. 0:07:38.760 --> 0:07:43.200 It wasn't just missing you know, Jonathan Hankins. Jonathan Hankins 0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:47.520 ain't set in the edge. Yeah, I just thought they 0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:50.960 they they had their number, they had what they wanted 0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:52.440 to do, and they did it. 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:56.480 Their defense just looked unstoppable. 0:07:56.080 --> 0:08:01.120 And then defensively they attacked the Cowboys up front. Dak 0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:03.600 did not have the time of day in the pocket. 0:08:04.560 --> 0:08:08.800 He was rushed and too many times he just had 0:08:08.800 --> 0:08:11.600 to throw it to throw it. That might be the 0:08:11.640 --> 0:08:14.400 most passes broken up I've seen him have in quite 0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:17.000 some time. But guys weren't open the way they were 0:08:17.000 --> 0:08:24.440 playing their defense. So yeah, that was not not what 0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:27.280 you expected to see out of a team that had 0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:29.040 won five consecutive games. 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:33.320 You asked, I think before we came on the air, here, 0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:36.520 when the last time the Cowboys had one hundred and 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:38.960 were held to one hundred and ninety five yards the 0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:41.760 San Francisco game this year, it was one hundred. 0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:42.520 And ninety seven yards. 0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:46.800 Say there, So I'm going back in time to find 0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:49.520 the last time the Cowboys. Well, actually you don't have to. 0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:52.480 This game doesn't count. Washington the end of the year 0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:55.720 last year was under eighty or so, so that one 0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:58.600 doesn't count because it was a meaningless game. 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:02.400 Probably have to go to that last time they played 0:09:03.679 --> 0:09:06.200 what was there was a what was the was at 0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:08.320 the end of the year the six to nothing game 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:09.240 or something like that. 0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:12.200 Again, those usually don't count. 0:09:12.280 --> 0:09:16.760 Yeah, well, okay, here's one in twenty. 0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:18.480 Twenty. 0:09:19.080 --> 0:09:24.200 Okay, middle of the season against Washington, that twenty five 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:26.640 to three loss. The Cowboys had one hundred and forty 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:28.240 two yards total offense. 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:31.440 So there you go. That's the answer that question. 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:33.600 Yeah, twenty twenty done, County. 0:09:33.320 --> 0:09:37.360 Either And okay, since I'm on that twenty twenty, you. 0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:39.760 Know what you need to look up and this will 0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:42.200 take way too much time. And twenty last time a 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:48.360 good offensive team. The Cowboys had only at got one 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:50.320 hundred and ninety four yards. 0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:54.480 And just switching over to the run defense since I'm 0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:57.880 on that twenty twenty season right now. From the Cleveland 0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:01.640 game that was the what am that was about three 0:10:01.679 --> 0:10:04.640 hundred It was forty nine thirty eight Cleveland won. It 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:08.400 was a three hundred and seven yards rushing that Cleveland 0:10:08.440 --> 0:10:12.160 had in that game. Wow, Arizona with Kyler Murray coming 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:14.840 in here thirty eight to ten loss, they had two 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:17.000 hundred and sixty one yards rushing. 0:10:17.080 --> 0:10:19.479 So Buffalo beat them yesterday. 0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:21.360 But those teams weren't ten and three. 0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:23.280 Arizona had a good team that year. 0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:27.120 No, I mean the Cowboys weren't. Oh okay, those were 0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:30.200 poor f and then Baltimore that year, remember that game. 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:33.199 Oh yeah, covid well two hundred and ninety four yards 0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:34.160 rushing in that game. 0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:37.000 So just to put in perspective, remember how bad that 0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:39.640 was that year? Well, that's how bad yesterday was. 0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:40.120 Yeah. 0:10:40.200 --> 0:10:43.880 No, absolutely, and you know, and I want to hear 0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:46.280 anything about the weather. The Bills had to play in 0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:47.120 the same mess. 0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:50.480 That's why they were in the ball so much. 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:53.920 And so a roof a roof maybe, but they're not 0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:56.680 going to do it on their new stadium, and they're 0:10:56.679 --> 0:11:00.160 not used to playing in the rain or prack to 0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:02.400 sing in the rain. When we pulled up, they've got 0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:05.200 a brand new and I don't know when they built it, 0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:08.960 but it looks new practice facility with an indoor practice 0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:14.160 field in Buffalo. Yes, so you know they're not stupid. 0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:17.040 They don't go outside and practice in that stuff. 0:11:17.800 --> 0:11:20.640 Well, you said off the top, when we were looking 0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:24.559 at Buffalo or Miami, which one has a better team, 0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:27.840 and they are two different type teams. Now that Buffalo 0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:30.280 has figured out what they need to do to win 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:33.360 football games and maybe to go to where people have 0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:37.120 predicted that they might be able to go, and that 0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:40.720 is a more balanced offense, and that's what they've done 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:42.280 with the change of their play caller. 0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:44.000 But you go back and look at. 0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:47.480 Their season this year. They are eight and six right now, 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:50.840 and remember in their season opener they lost to the 0:11:50.960 --> 0:11:54.320 Jets on a punt return in overtime by Xavier Gibson, 0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:58.599 which so that is a game that's like an Arizona 0:11:58.679 --> 0:12:03.240 game for them, okay, And they somehow lost at New 0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:06.400 England twenty nine to twenty five. Okay, so there are 0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:10.120 two games on their schedule. I mean, if it goes 0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:13.560 according to chalk, okay, they should have won those games. 0:12:13.640 --> 0:12:17.840 I mean just based on what they have on their team. Okay, 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:22.400 that puts them at ten and six six. Yeah, what 0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:24.280 they're eight, and it puts them at ten and four, 0:12:24.600 --> 0:12:28.280 ten and four. There are other games. They lost to 0:12:28.400 --> 0:12:33.400 Jacksonville twenty five to twenty. They lost at Cincinnati twenty 0:12:33.440 --> 0:12:37.680 four to eighteen when Cincinnati had Joe Burrow. They lost 0:12:37.720 --> 0:12:41.440 to Denver twenty four to twenty two. The Broncos were 0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:44.800 on their hot streak, and they lost to Philadelphia thirty 0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:47.199 seven thirty four in overtime over time, and these are 0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:49.840 all so these are all which is the one score, 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:54.320 one one score games that could have gone either way. Well, 0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:58.680 now they have figured things out. They also lost two 0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:02.880 key defensive players, their best defensive player, linebacker Matt Mlano 0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:07.479 in early October, and they lost Tredavius White, their cornerback. 0:13:08.440 --> 0:13:12.080 And they have figured out now how to win games 0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:15.640 by running the football as well. And now they're in 0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:20.760 a position where as they talked about during the broadcast yesterday, 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:23.199 this is a team in the AFC you don't want 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:26.360 to face. Now you look at Buffalo going forward. They 0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:29.720 got the Chargers this week, okay, so they're nine and six. 0:13:30.440 --> 0:13:31.800 They got New England. 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:33.840 Next week, so they're ten and six, and then they 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:36.600 go to Miami to close out the season. Miami's got 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:39.800 Dallas and Baltimore the next two weeks and then they 0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:40.480 get Buffalo. 0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:42.160 So you're telling me they have a chance. 0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:45.000 So I'm telling you that the NFL should go ahead 0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:49.200 and flex Buffalo Miami to the Sunday night game to 0:13:49.280 --> 0:13:52.720 end the season. Idea that's going to be for the 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:56.760 AFC East, and Buffalo is in a great position now 0:13:57.200 --> 0:14:00.480 to get to where people projected that they might be 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:02.520 able to get by the end of the season, which 0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:05.080 is the Super Bowl. That's the team that the Cowboys 0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:08.080 faced yesterday. It's also, as we talked about last week, 0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:13.400 an offensive line that has lost no games, no starters 0:14:13.880 --> 0:14:17.080 to injury throughout this season. They looked like it too, exactly, 0:14:17.160 --> 0:14:20.640 and it makes a big difference when you've got a 0:14:20.840 --> 0:14:23.000 healthy team at this time. 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:23.240 Of the year. 0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:26.600 I was going to say they looked outstanding yesterday, and 0:14:26.640 --> 0:14:31.040 they gave Josh Allen, although he didn't have a crazy 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:33.840 amount of passing yards yesterday. They gave him the ability 0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:38.680 to escape and nobody was getting to him. They protected 0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:40.040 Josh Allen s Buffalo. 0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:41.880 Was able to dictate whatever they wanted to do on. 0:14:41.880 --> 0:14:44.520 Offense, on defense, on special team. 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:48.600 And there's a lot of that to get to. 0:14:48.760 --> 0:14:53.840 Also, Yeah, because not only did they play well, they 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:58.680 had a bunch of key plays repeatedly go their way 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:02.160 in that game that you in the probably half game. 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:07.960 And we have figured out with this Cowboys team and 0:15:08.000 --> 0:15:11.160 the way it is built, that you better get ahead 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:14.200 and you better not fall behind by a couple of touchdowns, 0:15:14.400 --> 0:15:17.120 which is what happened in yesterday's game. And there are 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:21.560 different reasons, not just the run defense, why that game 0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:24.960 slipped away from them in the first half yesterday in Buffalo. 0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:27.280 And we'll get to all that and much more when 0:15:27.320 --> 0:15:28.480 mix Shots continues. 0:15:28.520 --> 0:15:31.200 In a moment, I'm. 0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:33.400 Dak Prescott, quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, and they. 0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:35.680 Snapped the press down. Who looks right, it's not there. 0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:38.360 He escapes left, He'll run for a perch down. 0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:41.040 Just like football, when it comes to crypto, it's important 0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:43.720 to have a team you can trust. With blockchain dot Com, 0:15:43.760 --> 0:15:46.200 I know him in good hands since twenty eleven.

Well, 0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:52.440 the Cowboys got some good news about a half hour 0:17:52.480 --> 0:17:55.479 before the game that they had made the playoffs. But 0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:58.280 then after that there was a coin toss. 0:17:58.320 --> 0:18:02.040 Mickey and the Cowboys won the coin. 0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:05.080 Toss, so more good news. Won the coin toss. 0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:10.280 And the team that leads the league in scoring, has 0:18:10.320 --> 0:18:14.880 a quarterback that leads the league with twenty eight touchdown passes. 0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:20.439 Going into the game, he's second in quarterback efficiency, and 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:27.560 the Cowboys defer. Now, why not take the ball? Since 0:18:27.760 --> 0:18:32.000 number one, you're five to zero when you score on 0:18:32.040 --> 0:18:35.560 your first possession, regardless if it's the first possession of 0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:40.520 the game or your first possession, and the fact that 0:18:41.880 --> 0:18:46.600 you play well when you have the lead, So why 0:18:46.920 --> 0:18:50.800 give the opponent a chance to score first? And now 0:18:50.880 --> 0:18:53.879 you've got to play catch up? Because when the Cowboys 0:18:53.920 --> 0:18:56.520 have the lead and teams have to play catch up, 0:18:57.000 --> 0:19:00.359 they can't sit there and just run, run, run run. 0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:03.439 At some point you got to throw the football. And 0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:06.639 that leads into what the Cowboys do best. But no, 0:19:07.280 --> 0:19:16.240 they deferred, and what happens immediately within six minutes, in 0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:22.320 fifty four seconds, they're behind seven to nothing immediately, and 0:19:22.359 --> 0:19:25.800 then it gets worse fourteen than nothing, than twenty one 0:19:25.880 --> 0:19:29.760 to three. Why don't you take the ball and try 0:19:29.800 --> 0:19:33.439 to score and put them in ketchup mode? I don't 0:19:33.480 --> 0:19:37.520 get it. The analytics say, well, you want the last 0:19:37.560 --> 0:19:40.760 possession in the first half, which you're not guaranteed, and 0:19:40.840 --> 0:19:43.960 the first possession in the second half. Well, what happened. 0:19:44.320 --> 0:19:47.479 The Cowboys could have had the last possession in the 0:19:47.520 --> 0:19:51.560 first half and they didn't get very far and had 0:19:51.600 --> 0:19:54.520 to punt. And they got the first possession in the 0:19:54.600 --> 0:19:57.359 second half and they got to the thirty nine yard 0:19:57.440 --> 0:20:02.679 line and had to punt. So deferring did nothing to 0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:04.679 help you other than get you behind. 0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:07.040 And one of the reasons that they couldn't do anything. 0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:08.840 At the end of the first half or the beginning 0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:11.200 of the second half, they were already behind twenty one 0:20:11.200 --> 0:20:13.440 to three, and the opponent knew they were going to 0:20:13.480 --> 0:20:14.120 throw the football. 0:20:14.160 --> 0:20:17.679 Now, just why don't you take the ball? I don't 0:20:17.760 --> 0:20:20.640 get it. I just don't get it. And I gave 0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:25.480 you the stat last year there were two hundred and 0:20:25.560 --> 0:20:30.800 fifty deferred on winning the coin toss and only twenty 0:20:30.880 --> 0:20:32.800 two times have teams taken the ball. 0:20:33.320 --> 0:20:35.480 Doesn't make any sentence put to me, to me. 0:20:35.840 --> 0:20:39.879 You're scoring, you can score, and they've been scoring the 0:20:39.960 --> 0:20:45.520 last three games. The first possession they scored points and 0:20:45.920 --> 0:20:49.000 they deferred. Okay, we're going to play to our defense. 0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:51.480 Well that didn't work out so well. 0:20:51.520 --> 0:20:54.720 Well do you think that they learned that lesson from 0:20:54.760 --> 0:20:57.760 this game. Do you think let's say we go into 0:20:57.800 --> 0:20:58.720 this next week. 0:20:58.520 --> 0:21:00.359 And they win the toss and we win the hoss. 0:21:02.000 --> 0:21:04.320 Maybe I don't know, if they thought maybe the weather 0:21:04.480 --> 0:21:06.919 was bad and it's like, okay, we'll play defense first. 0:21:07.440 --> 0:21:10.040 Maybe they'll you know, cough it up, and yeah, they 0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:10.680 won't be able. 0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:13.359 But I just for just to test out to see 0:21:13.359 --> 0:21:16.440 what Buffalo's offense was coming out with. But they came 0:21:16.480 --> 0:21:17.000 in hot. 0:21:17.160 --> 0:21:20.920 This whole game is about the football, and you give 0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:24.199 it away. It's not a turnover, right, but to me, 0:21:24.280 --> 0:21:27.080 it's a giveaway because you just gave it to them. 0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:30.239 Well, and as it turned out, Buffalo drove down the 0:21:30.240 --> 0:21:32.639 field and they used a lot of run plays to 0:21:32.760 --> 0:21:34.919 drive down the field and they face a third and 0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:37.240 four at the sixty yard line. They threw went in 0:21:37.280 --> 0:21:40.840 completion in the end zone and Marcus Lawrence gets called 0:21:40.880 --> 0:21:41.720 for ruffing the basser. 0:21:42.080 --> 0:21:45.480 And boy, he didn't get his money's worth. I mean, 0:21:45.560 --> 0:21:50.840 come on, he's put it. He put a forearm to 0:21:50.920 --> 0:21:53.879 the guy's chest and he six ' five, two hundred 0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:55.800 and thirty five pounds, and well. 0:21:55.680 --> 0:21:57.359 He immediately pointed to his head. 0:21:57.480 --> 0:21:59.440 Yeah, he acted like he got hit in the head, 0:21:59.480 --> 0:22:02.199 which he did or he got face masks, which he didn't, 0:22:02.600 --> 0:22:03.800 and the guy fell for it. 0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:06.600 So that gave him a first down. 0:22:06.720 --> 0:22:10.560 And not only that, they stopped and I'm not saying 0:22:10.600 --> 0:22:12.800
