- 3:09Speaker 2: you don't already follow me. Man, let's get into it
- 3:12Speaker 2: all right.
- 3:12Speaker 3: Well, let's let's get into it. I named the episode
- 3:15Speaker 3: the way that I did for a specific reason. And
- 3:18Speaker 3: DT knows about my my disdain for everybody eats. But
- 3:23Speaker 3: here here's why I named the episode the way that
- 3:24Speaker 3: I did because about well, really, right after, right after
- 3:29Speaker 3: Stefan Diggs was traded and this whole philosophy that Joe
- 3:32Speaker 3: Brady was kind of bringing into Fruition came to be,
- 3:36Speaker 3: I started to view everybody eats as a poison because
- 3:40Speaker 3: what would happen is that it had now morphed into
- 3:42Speaker 3: a situation where Josh Allen does he could do everything.
- 3:47Speaker 3: I mean, he's Superman. He can put on the cape.
- 3:49Speaker 3: What happened after you know, fourteen Leaves is that, well, listen,
- 3:53Speaker 3: Josh won the MVP. We put up thirty points a game.
- 3:56Speaker 3: Like Brandon Bean boasted on WGR, he could do it all. Listen,
- 4:01Speaker 3: Let's just let Josh do it all, and let's not
- 4:03Speaker 3: really worry about the weaponry that he has around him
- 4:05Speaker 3: because of the fact that Josh can handle it. I mean,
- 4:08Speaker 3: he's got broad shoulders, he can handle it. And what
- 4:11Speaker 3: I had been saying most recently on Twitter DT was
- 4:14Speaker 3: that this has started to morph into a poison because
- 4:18Speaker 3: it's tricking the fan base into thinking that Josh Allen
- 4:21Speaker 3: doesn't need help. Josh Allen doesn't need things on his side.
- 4:25Speaker 3: She'd if you could speak to it a little bit,
- 4:27Speaker 3: because for me, everybody eats was always a problem. But
- 4:30Speaker 3: I had to shut up last year. I had to
- 4:32Speaker 3: be quiet because of the fact that they roll. They
- 4:35Speaker 3: go all the way to the AFC Championship Game and
- 4:37Speaker 3: obviously lose to Kansas City again, but you know, you
- 4:39Speaker 3: get the MVP crowned, and I had to be quiet,
- 4:41Speaker 3: but I warned everyone that if things started to go haywire,
- 4:46Speaker 3: I was going to be back. And when they had
- 4:48Speaker 3: to show me again in another year, this was not good.
- 4:50Speaker 3: Bill's lost to the Atlanta Falcons twenty four to fourteen.
- 4:54Speaker 3: It was not good on offense. She I think it's
- 4:57Speaker 3: a poison, man, I think that this is a poison.
- 5:00Speaker 2: Well, well, what you have to thank for is to
- 5:04Speaker 2: Patrick mahomes experiment.
- 5:06Speaker 3: Right.
- 5:06Speaker 2: With Patrick Mahomes, it was a season where he didn't
- 5:09Speaker 2: have too many weapons and he still was able to
- 5:11Speaker 2: get Kansas City to the Super Bowl, right, And so
- 5:14Speaker 2: gms across the league said, hey, if I got a
- 5:16Speaker 2: superstar quarterback, then maybe I can go on and cheap
- 5:20Speaker 2: in terms of offense weapons, and maybe we can duplicate
- 5:24Speaker 2: the success of the Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes.
- 5:27Speaker 2: But what you're finding out is that the number one receiver,
- 5:30Speaker 2: especially when you don't have a Patrick Mahomes, right, and
- 5:33Speaker 2: not saying Josh Allen isn't a great quarterback. He's one
- 5:35Speaker 2: of the very best in the league. But what you're
- 5:37Speaker 2: finding out is very hard to replicate that kind of
- 5:40Speaker 2: success when you don't have a number one receiver as
- 5:43Speaker 2: you've seen when Stephan Dix came in here a few weeks ago. Man,
- 5:46Speaker 2: it would have been good to have a guy like that, right,
- 5:50Speaker 2: And if you don't get if you don't have a
- 5:52Speaker 2: guy like that, you need something similar, Right. You don't
- 5:56Speaker 2: have to have a Ferrari, but you need a Mercedes BMW,
- 6:00Speaker 2: something that has something under the hood that everybody has
- 6:04Speaker 2: to respect.
- 6:07Speaker 3: DT. You know that I've been preaching on this a
- 6:10Speaker 3: little bit, and I mean McDermott called it too cute
- 6:13Speaker 3: a couple of weeks ago, and then I mean last
- 6:16Speaker 3: week we were doing, you know, and the rounds to
- 6:19Speaker 3: Elijah Moore on fourth and I mean, I don't know,
- 6:23Speaker 3: this is a it's a weird thing and we're gonna
- 6:25Speaker 3: get to Brady, but everybody eats has almost made it
- 6:28Speaker 3: feel like Josh can do everything, and he can lift
- 6:30Speaker 3: and he's the tide that raises all boats. I never
- 6:33Speaker 3: bought it last year. I had to be quiet, DT.
- 6:36Speaker 3: I'm starting to make some noise again. Man, I don't like.
- 6:38Speaker 4: It rightfully, so, but I think, you know, I'll Devil's
- 6:42Speaker 4: advocate this and we'll roll it back a little bit.
- 6:45Speaker 4: Fifty three the fifty three Nan roster, the coaches, the
- 6:48Speaker 4: Brandon Beans, the Terry bagoolas, this whole team one organization.
- 6:53Speaker 4: Monday night, nobody did a single thing to help anybody
- 6:57Speaker 4: else out. The coaches didn't call a great offense, defense,
- 7:01Speaker 4: special teams, head coach, offensively, offensive line got beat up
- 7:05Speaker 4: in the trenches a little bit. Josh was getting touched,
- 7:07Speaker 4: as we'll get too later. Josh Allen didn't make great throws,
- 7:11Speaker 4: didn't have the resilience sometimes we usually see. We kind
- 7:13Speaker 4: of got that pissed off, Josh taking his helmet off,
- 7:16Speaker 4: talking shit to people on the sideline. They just kept
- 7:19Speaker 4: going to them looking completely distraught. Wide receivers, I guess
- 7:23Speaker 4: from getting opened.
- 7:24Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 7:24Speaker 4: I got to get on that all twenty two to see,
- 7:26Speaker 4: but that first red just was never there. So that's offensively,
- 7:29Speaker 4: nobody helping anybody. Defensively, same deal, trenches, getting Rayan on
- 7:33Speaker 4: b John Robinson all the way all day. Same with
- 7:37Speaker 4: the linebackers, same with the defensive backs. No tackles, no pressures,
- 7:41Speaker 4: nothing to help anybody else. So, yes, some of those
- 7:46Speaker 4: problems on Monday might have resulted from the everybody eats
- 7:50Speaker 4: and there's a philosophy issue, But You got to look
- 7:53Speaker 4: at that as a team loss. This was the flip
- 7:55Speaker 4: flop of that Baltimore Ravens game last year, you know,
- 8:00Speaker 4: Week four, that was the first game of the two
- 8:01Speaker 4: game skid. They came back in the second game, didn't
- 8:04Speaker 4: play great, didn't play great against the Texans, but lost
- 8:07Speaker 4: by a field goal last second, and got punched in
- 8:10Speaker 4: the mouth straight up by the Ravens. This was the
- 8:12Speaker 4: flip last week. Committed three turnovers, eleven penalties against the Patriots,
- 8:16Speaker 4: had the lead in the fourth quarter, lost one tough
- 8:18Speaker 4: divisional game Monday. You got punched in the mouth in
- 8:21Speaker 4: every aspect, You got your ass kicked every piece of
- 8:24Speaker 4: the ball. Nobody helped anybody. Yes, everybody eats might have
- 8:28Speaker 4: been one of the issues that didn't help Josh get
- 8:30Speaker 4: somebody open or whatnot. But you got to look at
- 8:33Speaker 4: that as an overall team loss. And it is early
- 8:36Speaker 4: in the season. I think it's a couple more weeks.
- 8:39Speaker 4: I mean, you obviously don't want to sacrifice lose two
- 8:41Speaker 4: more games. And then after two weeks, Rob we're sitting
- 8:44Speaker 4: here talking about after the Chiefs came man, where four
- 8:46Speaker 4: and four everybody eats is it's a problem it's a poison.
- 8:49Speaker 4: So I get that it's okay to address it now,
- 8:51Speaker 4: but it might be a little early leaning on that
- 8:54Speaker 4: Monday night was a complete team loss. It wasn't everybody eats,
- 8:57Speaker 4: It was literally everybody involved, from top to bottom of
- 8:59Speaker 4: that order organization. We got punch in the mouth and
- 9:02Speaker 4: beat fair and square on Monday and didn't have it
- 9:04Speaker 4: in us. So everybody eats might be an issue, but
- 9:07Speaker 4: I don't think I'm talking about that yet as the
- 9:09Speaker 4: end all be all, because Monday you got to be
- 9:12Speaker 4: bad and that's bigger concerning than everybody eats.
- 9:14Speaker 3: To me, she what what is? What is Joe Brady's issue?
- 9:21Speaker 3: What I heard on the radio driving home today. I
- 9:24Speaker 3: heard is today that well, maybe they're playing the Chief's
- 9:26Speaker 3: possum game where they're not trying to show things and
- 9:28Speaker 3: things like that, and okay, that sounds a little bit
- 9:32Speaker 3: like bullshit, but okay, no, no problem. What is Joe
- 9:36Speaker 3: Brady trying to accomplish? Because I got a real issue
- 9:38Speaker 3: with this offensive coordinator. The scheme for the power run
- 9:41Speaker 3: was working. I mean, James Cook was gashing him. Now,
- 9:44Speaker 3: he wasn't breaking out for huge games, but he was
- 9:46Speaker 3: gashing them he goes away from the run game, James
- 9:49Speaker 3: Cook is non existent when the second half comes around,
- 9:52Speaker 3: especially in the fourth quarter when you need to find
- 9:54Speaker 3: a way to get that touchdown to tie the game
- 9:56Speaker 3: or take the lead. She what what? What is? What's
- 10:00Speaker 3: this deal? Man? What's this deal?
- 10:03Speaker 2: Yeah? I think the reality of the situation is what
- 10:05Speaker 2: you're watching is inexperience. Right when you're looking at the
- 10:08Speaker 2: defensive side, coaching matters and coaching experience matters. Right. We
- 10:14Speaker 2: saw Joe Brady and the Bills offense average thirty points
- 10:17Speaker 2: per game last year, and they went into this event
- 10:20Speaker 2: averaging thirty points per game, and everybody became a believer
- 10:23Speaker 2: of Joe Brady. But when you take a look back
- 10:26Speaker 2: and you start to think about the actual reality of
- 10:28Speaker 2: the situation is that you have on both sides of
- 10:31Speaker 2: the ball inexperience. You have an inexperienced defensive coordinator, you
- 10:35Speaker 2: have an inexperienced offensive coordinator. And the Shawn the end
- 10:40Speaker 2: a round or the jet sweep on four for one
- 10:43Speaker 2: is a prime example of inexperience. We're talking. And so
- 10:47Speaker 2: this is what you get when you discount somebody's resume
- 10:50Speaker 2: and you promote them to a position within your organization
- 10:53Speaker 2: that they not necessarily qualified for. You're going to get
- 10:57Speaker 2: inexperience in experience results.
- 11:03Speaker 3: Okay, DT, James Cook is the most explosive player outside
- 11:09Speaker 3: of Josh Allen on the offense, and I don't understand
- 11:13Speaker 3: why you don't want to manufacture and make sure that
- 11:15Speaker 3: he's getting the ball. Now. I've been told all week
- 11:18Speaker 3: that because he can't block, that's why they've got Tdy
- 11:20Speaker 3: Johnson out there. I am starting to feel like, man,
- 11:24Speaker 3: prove it, prove it, show me a protection breakdown. The
- 11:28Speaker 3: Falcons were blitzing all of the time, so that should
- 11:31Speaker 3: have been something that we were anticipating because we talked
- 11:33Speaker 3: about it. They were the number one blitz team, happy
- 11:35Speaker 3: team coming into that game. It just seems like a
- 11:38Speaker 3: situation where I mean, I don't want to hear that
- 11:40Speaker 3: shit anymore, DT, I don't want to hear that James
- 11:44Speaker 3: Cook can't block on third down, so we just eliminate
- 11:47Speaker 3: him out the game plan. He could catch the ball
- 11:48Speaker 3: out the backfield. He may not be the most physically stout,
- 11:51Speaker 3: he's not, you know, stocky like that, but like, show me,
- 11:55Speaker 3: you know what I mean, show me some whiffs on
- 11:57Speaker 3: some blitz pickups, show me, have him out there. Let
- 11:59Speaker 3: me then if he's not out there doing his job.
- 12:02Speaker 3: I just don't like this thing where we're just giving
- 12:05Speaker 3: out this excuse of, like, you know what, he can't.
- 12:07Speaker 3: He can't, so we're not even gonna try. He can't
- 12:10Speaker 3: do it, so we're not even gonna see if we
- 12:11Speaker 3: can't do it, or if he's gotten better, or if
- 12:13Speaker 3: he's working to get better. I think that the second
- 12:16Speaker 3: most explosive player on your offense needs to have touches
- 12:19Speaker 3: when you're struggling to score points. They came out second half,
- 12:22Speaker 3: score right off the bat, and then everything goes down
- 12:24Speaker 3: existing I think it was like three straight three and
- 12:26Speaker 3: ounces of some crazy shit like that. I do not
- 12:29Speaker 3: like it. I want to see him on the field.
- 12:30Speaker 3: I don't like it.
- 12:32Speaker 4: Pretty weird, right, I mean, last year, the dude gets
- 12:34Speaker 4: a second contract for playing forty seven percent of the
- 12:37Speaker 4: snaps on the offense and score the most points in
- 12:39Speaker 4: team history. Right, gets a contract off of that comes
- 12:43Speaker 4: in in the first couple of games of the season.
- 12:45Speaker 4: He's playing seventy eighty percent of snaps in some games,
- 12:48Speaker 4: so it's like, oh, okay, he got the bag. We're
- 12:50Speaker 4: gonna play more. He's gonna be in there, and then yeah,
- 12:53Speaker 4: weird the last two games in the Patriots game and
- 12:56Speaker 4: in this game Patriots game was I mean we were
- 12:59Speaker 4: throwing a little more, but still like you gotta get
- 13:02Speaker 4: him in more. Played that first possession there and in
- 13:06Speaker 4: the second half gashing them for eight yards of carry,
- 13:08Speaker 4: and then we bear the team in the fourth quarter
- 13:09Speaker 4: because we had to pass. Well, they're blitzing all night.
- 13:11Speaker 4: Ty Johnson, I mean, he didn't play a great game either.
- 13:14Speaker 4: He didn't help Josh Allen that in that pocket either.
- 13:16Speaker 4: So obviously he's a better pass blocker than James Cook,
- 13:20Speaker 4: because it wouldn't be a thing if that wasn't the case.
- 13:23Speaker 4: But if Ty Johnson's doing stuff like that, and we
- 13:25Speaker 4: could have that weapon of James Cook, you know, Josh
- 13:27Speaker 4: get out of there, quicker roll out and find four
- 13:30Speaker 4: coming across on a wheel route or something like that
- 13:32Speaker 4: where he doesn't have to it's not screen like, it's
- 13:34Speaker 4: just more, you know, get him out in the open
- 13:36Speaker 4: space like he's taking the handoff. So little weird last
- 13:40Speaker 4: year got the contract without playing a lot of snaps,
- 13:43Speaker 4: then comes in plays a ton of snaps to start
- 13:44Speaker 4: the year and then it felt like the only thing
- 13:47Speaker 4: that was working we get away from so so weird
- 13:50Speaker 4: on that, But on the Bradys thing, I this is
- 13:54Speaker 4: not just like a couple of weeks. This is you
- 13:56Speaker 4: remember last year when it kind of started off and
- 13:59Speaker 4: it was like those those screenplays, those screenplays. He just
- 14:03Speaker 4: can't going back to that in like every game. It
- 14:06Speaker 4: was like one or two and it just became familiar
- 14:08Speaker 4: and relevant, like, oh stop, like we're getting too cute,
- 14:11Speaker 4: we're getting do right, he's doing the screenplay stuff. It
- 14:14Speaker 4: never works, YadA YadA. We get into the AFC Championship
- 14:18Speaker 4: game last year, we ran the whatever the hell that
- 14:22Speaker 4: was on fourth and one one hundred times and didn't
- 14:25Speaker 4: get it and was frantic and it was all over
- 14:27Speaker 4: the place. So like, was that the call? Was that
- 14:29Speaker 4: a German's call? Was that Brady's call? If that's Brady's called, Like, Oh,
- 14:31Speaker 4: well it didn't work, it's gonna work now, it's gonna
- 14:32Speaker 4: work now. The screen plass didn't work, Now it's gonna
- 14:34Speaker 4: work now.
- 14:35Speaker 3: Now.
- 14:35Speaker 4: This bullshit jet sweep is literally four weeks in a row.
- 14:40Speaker 3: Yeah. I was just gonna say, it's like three weeks
- 14:41Speaker 3: in a row because.
- 14:45Speaker 4: In the Saints game. In the Saints game, Khalilshakir, it's
- 14:49Speaker 4: like fourth and two when he gets like a five
- 14:51Speaker 4: year loss, then fumble in the Dawson Knox and then
- 14:55Speaker 4: you put the ball on the ground in eighteen and
- 14:57Speaker 4: like in your notes, that didn't even get a jersey
- 14:58Speaker 4: last week, So it's like, what are you doing? So
- 15:02Speaker 4: it is it like they're he's getting not in like
- 15:07Speaker 4: he's not stubborn, but he's just trying to get ahead
- 15:10Speaker 4: of the curve. He's trying to get to red. It's
- 15:12Speaker 4: gone black ten times, so he's trying to get to red. Right, man,
- 15:16Speaker 4: what's he trying to do? And I think he's getting
- 15:18Speaker 4: maybe too cute in his own head trying to beat
- 15:20Speaker 4: the curve here, Like all right, they know they know
- 15:23Speaker 4: we're not running the Jets sweeper guy because we fumbled
- 15:25Speaker 4: three weeks in a row doing it, so they know
- 15:27Speaker 4: we're not gonna run it again. Oh here it is
- 15:29Speaker 4: all they fumbled again?
- 15:31Speaker 3: She talk.
- 15:33Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, yeah, I'm trying to He has some
- 15:36Speaker 2: great points.
- 15:37Speaker 3: Man.
- 15:37Speaker 2: The reality of the situation is when you when you
- 15:40Speaker 2: think about it, man, it's an experience. It's coaching not
- 15:43Speaker 2: only my inexperienced point, but the point is taking James
- 15:47Speaker 2: Cook off the field and putting another player in all
- 15:50Speaker 2: of these different Sometimes I look at the formation and
- 15:52Speaker 2: I'm saying, why is Elijah Moore out there? Why is
- 15:56Speaker 2: uh she care off the field? Coaches nowadays think they're
- 16:01Speaker 2: smarter than the game itself. Why don't you just keep
- 16:04Speaker 2: your best damn players on the field, for your best
- 16:07Speaker 2: da in players and run your best like Vince Lombardi
- 16:10Speaker 2: used to have one one run and we're gonna run
- 16:12Speaker 2: straight up the middle.
- 16:13Speaker 4: Why not just.
- 16:14Speaker 2: Keep doing what works versus all these different personnel formation,
- 16:18Speaker 2: all these different personnel packages, and do what works. And
- 16:21Speaker 2: I just think the inexperience is showing, and we can't,
- 16:25Speaker 2: you know, we can't give them more credit than they
- 16:27Speaker 2: actually deserve and what they actually earned. They haven't earned
- 16:31Speaker 2: our ability to respect their ability and their experience, right
- 16:35Speaker 2: especially on the different society. But we ain't got there yet.
- 16:37Speaker 2: But I just think it's an experience when you talk
- 16:40Speaker 2: about offensive play calling and Joe Brady, and it's showing.
- 16:43Speaker 2: But if I'm making one more quick point to this
- 16:46Speaker 2: is I think Sean McDermott, like his coaches subservient. Right
- 16:51Speaker 2: he ran, Yes, yes, he ran the coach Randy amount
- 16:57Speaker 2: of town, phraser out of town. Run and right. Everybody
- 17:01Speaker 2: who can stand up to you, who got some NFL experience,
- 17:03Speaker 2: who can talk back to you, run him out of town.
- 17:06Speaker 2: And therefore you get some younger guys who you mentored,
- 17:08Speaker 2: and then you kind of got what you want and
- 17:10Speaker 2: you're the man. And it's the reality that's the problem.
- 17:13Speaker 2: And that's the reality of the situation as I see it.
- 17:16Speaker 3: Wow, and Ty Dunn spoke to that DT. What you
- 17:19Speaker 3: called it? That hit piece? And you know, I love
- 17:21Speaker 3: my boy, tied down, Tied Dunn, shout out to Ty Dunn.
- 17:24Speaker 3: But listen, the reason that I loved the piece so
- 17:26Speaker 3: much was because he's gritty. Ty does the work. Ty
- 17:29Speaker 3: goes behind the scenes. He asked players, He asked players
- 17:32Speaker 3: on the team, he asked former employees. So when everybody
- 17:35Speaker 3: wanted to call it a hit piece, and I'm not
- 17:36Speaker 3: taking shots that you've DT, but what my point is
- 17:39Speaker 3: that you get the real truth, and you definitely do
- 17:41Speaker 3: get the real truth when he goes and he starts
- 17:43Speaker 3: to dig. And what did everybody say about that article
- 17:46Speaker 3: was that one of the things that rubbed a lot
- 17:48Speaker 3: of the players the wrong way. Was then when McDermott,
- 17:52Speaker 3: it seemed like he was a little bit perturbed and
- 17:54Speaker 3: he was a little bit taken aback by all the
- 17:57Speaker 3: praise that Chad Hall was getting. And then I think
- 17:59Speaker 3: they like, you know, something in the parking lot was
- 18:01Speaker 3: in there talking about how you know, he was like
- 18:03Speaker 3: he didn't like the fact that all these players are
- 18:05Speaker 3: given all this little credit to Chad Hall, the wide
- 18:07Speaker 3: receivers coach, and he nipped that shit right in the butt.
- 18:10Speaker 3: And you laugh at DT, But I have heard it
- 18:12Speaker 3: before on Twitter spaces. Shout out to our boy Widow
- 18:15Speaker 3: who also hosts a lot of stuff on those Twitter spaces.
- 18:18Speaker 3: I heard a guy come on there one time form
- 18:20Speaker 3: a military man, and he was talking exactly about what
- 18:23Speaker 3: she'd said and said McDermott likes underlings. He likes people
- 18:27Speaker 3: below him so that way he can dictate what he wants.
- 18:29Speaker 3: He doesn't want anybody to stand up to him. Man,
- 18:31Speaker 3: that that just resonated with me.
- 18:33Speaker 2: She saying one more to this point, DT, and I'll
- 18:36Speaker 2: I'm gonna get off the mic, get off the stage
- 18:38Speaker 2: really fast. One more thing to this point. But if
- 18:40Speaker 2: you notice, and I watched these press, these press conferences
- 18:43Speaker 2: very closely. He hasn't said a word negative about Bobby Babbage.
- 18:48Speaker 2: His mentor his clone hasn't said anything slightly or mostly
- 18:53Speaker 2: that's Arora thing wrong about Bobby Babbage. But they fired
- 18:56Speaker 2: Ken Dorsey for less last year or the year before.
- 19:01Speaker 3: Man's on the field.
- 19:02Speaker 2: That's now. Check this out. Check this out now. Joe
- 19:05Speaker 2: Brady is going a little bit rogue in his play
- 19:09Speaker 2: calling and all of something. Oh this is this is
- 19:12Speaker 2: too cute.
- 19:13Speaker 3: Uh.
- 19:13Speaker 2: I talked to him about James and next thing, you know,
- 19:16Speaker 2: he's out there anytime anybody do something that's just outside
- 19:22Speaker 2: of what Sean McDermott likes, gotta go. You got a problem.
- 19:26Speaker 2: And he and he's selling he's done so people to
- 19:29Speaker 2: drought fear and and he's selling the people that he's
- 19:32Speaker 2: this bridge to nowhere and everybody keep buying it.
- 19:34Speaker 3: Sorry, did speak to it. You were just laughing a
- 19:39Speaker 3: little bit about that Tied Dune. But you know, I
- 19:41Speaker 3: love my boy Tied Dune. I mean I've seen this.
- 19:44Speaker 3: I've seen this out of him before with how he
- 19:46Speaker 3: did Fraser dirty. It's fuck. He told yeah, come back
- 19:49Speaker 3: with you're not calling plays like what what? So all
- 19:51Speaker 3: you try to do is just fire him without firing,
- 19:53Speaker 3: so you don't have to say that you fired him, Like,
- 19:54Speaker 3: come on, man, that's that's weak, man, That shit is weak.
- 19:57Speaker 4: I agree, he's always always looked for escape goat when
- 20:00Speaker 4: push comes to shove. He's really never taken responsibility. And
- 20:04Speaker 4: the biggest situation of all time is thirty seconds. We
- 20:07Speaker 4: still even if even if it wasn't his fault, a
- 20:10Speaker 4: true you know, I think a true leader and coach
- 20:14Speaker 4: would say, that's one hundred percent of my fault. That's
- 20:16Speaker 4: got to be handled better. As the head coach of
- 20:18Speaker 4: a football team in that situation, we got to handle
- 20:20Speaker 4: that better. And it was never it was sketchy and
- 20:23Speaker 4: so saying he's we've known this, right, he's looked for scapegoats.
- 20:27Speaker 4: It's when he's he's not always throwing under the bus,
- 20:30Speaker 4: but when the when the fire is the hottest, he
- 20:32Speaker 4: tends to, you know, say some off color stuff, to
- 20:35Speaker 4: say some he knows how I feel about it about
- 20:38Speaker 4: Joe Brady this week, right, Yes, but yes, you know,
- 20:41Speaker 4: I like she's point in saying that the get kind
- 20:44Speaker 4: of the the older NFL experiences out of there, it's
- 20:47Speaker 4: the young up and comers. Okay, we got to follow
- 20:50Speaker 4: coach McDermott, but this whole situation isn't here without McDermot.
- 20:55Speaker 4: And we can all say that, like, this is a culture,
- 20:58Speaker 4: This is a whole thing that people buy into and
- 21:01Speaker 4: this is why we're winning. And maybe because the talent
- 21:04Speaker 4: isn't that good and we're starting to see that a
- 21:05Speaker 4: little more, but we it hasn't been that good the
- 21:07Speaker 4: past year, and we just make it happen because of
- 21:09Speaker 4: this culture and because of Josh Allen. Right, but these
- 21:13Speaker 4: dudes are doing that's what Sean McDermott like structured, you know,
- 21:18Speaker 4: run the ball, do this, and Joe Brady's doing Okay,
- 21:20Speaker 4: this is gonna work. We're gonna keep doing it. And
- 21:22Speaker 4: like that same type of mindset is definitely given in
- 21:25Speaker 4: from that coach. But that's time of unless it's a
- 21:28Speaker 4: very experienced coaching staff. But I mean, I get it.
- 21:32Speaker 4: And a lot of these coaches are in the are
- 21:34Speaker 4: in these roles. But there's a lot of coaches that
- 21:36Speaker 4: are very successful at OC. And Sean McVay a head
- 21:39Speaker 4: coach at you know, thirty six years old. Joe Brady's
- 21:41Speaker 4: thirty six and he's been a grad assistant. He might
- 21:43Speaker 4: he's the betting favorite to be the next head coach
- 21:45Speaker 4: at Penn State, a massive program. Like I get college
- 21:48Speaker 4: and NFL are different, but like the experience, like bro,
- 21:51Speaker 4: like I get it, but you don't if you might
- 21:54Speaker 4: just not be good. If you know, sometimes you're a
- 21:57Speaker 4: late bloomer. Sometimes you need the experience. But he it's
- 22:01Speaker 4: not like he's just yes, he's young, but it's not
- 22:03Speaker 4: like he just started coaching. He's the betting favorite to
- 22:06Speaker 4: be the best coach, you know, not the best coach program.
- 22:10Speaker 4: So I think it's a mix of a lot of
- 22:13Speaker 4: those things of you know, this.
- 22:16Speaker 3: Is mt a McDermott initiative, you can't.
- 22:22Speaker 4: But this is because of the inexperience. They're kind of
- 22:25Speaker 4: just falling in line to this McDermott m O. And
- 22:28Speaker 4: I don't think it's necessarily Sean McDermott. You know, you
- 22:32Speaker 4: step into my office looking at my crystal ball, like
- 22:34Speaker 4: go in full villain mode. But I think it's them
- 22:36Speaker 4: just okay, we're on experience. They these guys win thirteen
- 22:39Speaker 4: games a year. Coach McDermott, everyone respects. Let's just kind
- 22:43Speaker 4: of do what he does.
- 22:47Speaker 2: I do agree with most of what you said, uh,
- 22:50Speaker 2: dt I do agree with most of what you say. However,
- 22:53Speaker 2: when you said that we're not winning without Sharman, we're
- 22:57Speaker 2: not winning without Josh Allen. Right, let's not forget Sean
- 23:00Speaker 2: McDermott is the guy who decided that Nathan Peterman was
- 23:05Speaker 2: the best quarterback that the Bills had on the roster
- 23:08Speaker 2: when you had a rookie, Josh. Let's not forget his
- 23:11Speaker 2: blunders like this guy, and.
- 23:13Speaker 4: That's part of it.
- 23:14Speaker 2: We we we got fears of the Patriots and Drake
- 23:18Speaker 2: May going for the next fifteen years on it, and
- 23:22Speaker 2: we're like, wait, let's hold it together. Is it the culture?
- 23:24Speaker 2: Here's the problem with the culture, dtus. We ain't got
- 23:28Speaker 2: no dogs. We ain't got enough dogs. Dogs, they're gonna say,
- 23:34Speaker 2: if it ain't wearing blue moving, put everything moving. What
- 23:39Speaker 2: we got is a bunch of choir boys who go
- 23:42Speaker 2: down to Atlanta and pay their ties and offering and
- 23:46Speaker 2: and and and and uh, we need to usher to
- 23:50Speaker 2: close the door. They closing the doors.
- 23:52Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, nobody.
- 23:54Speaker 2: We ain't got no dogs. We ain't got nobody stealing
- 23:57Speaker 2: out of the out of the concession stand or whatever
- 24:00Speaker 2: his card.
- 24:02Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean listen, man, Okay, I want
- 24:07Speaker 3: to try No. I mean, DT is right about that,
- 24:10Speaker 3: because he has been on the same, that same MO
- 24:13Speaker 3: for a while about getting some dogs in there, and
- 24:15Speaker 3: we're trying to pull it out of Josh. And we
- 24:16Speaker 3: talked about a couple weeks ago where I just don't
- 24:18Speaker 3: think that's Josh's nature, and you saw some of the
- 24:21Speaker 3: bad body language from Josh on on Monday Night that
- 24:24Speaker 3: that kind of really speaks to that. Now before we transition,
- 24:27Speaker 3: real quick, real quick, all right, we'll do We'll do
- 24:29Speaker 3: it this way. Tonight's episode is presented by Taste the
- 24:32Speaker 3: Buffalo Pizza Real along with our friends over at the

- 25:16Speaker 3: be upset that you did. It'll make you feel like
- 25:18Speaker 3: you're back in Western New York, all right, before we
- 25:21Speaker 3: flip the d. This would be a disservice if I
- 25:24Speaker 3: don't keep it funky. I have to keep it funky.
- 25:27Speaker 3: I have to keep it funky. Something is going on
- 25:32Speaker 3: with seventeen now. I don't know, Okay, I know that
- 25:36Speaker 3: on Twitter a lot of people were talking in it,
- 25:38Speaker 3: and I think I would hope that a lot of
- 25:40Speaker 3: Bill's bafia is more tongue in cheek. They talked about
- 25:42Speaker 3: how he sat down with Marty Smith and they posted
- 25:45Speaker 3: that DT. I don't know if you saw it, but
- 25:46Speaker 3: it was right before the game, and he was talking
- 25:47Speaker 3: about his wife and he's he's a newly wed and
- 25:50Speaker 3: he was talking about how, you know, she convinced him
- 25:52Speaker 3: and kind of let him know that he's more than
- 25:54Speaker 3: just a football play and stuff like that. So I'm
- 25:56Speaker 3: not even trying to get into all that part. I
- 25:58Speaker 3: don't think that it's anything about that. Congratulations again to
- 26:01Speaker 3: the Allen So, I mean, he's allowed to get married,
- 26:03Speaker 3: he's allowed to be he is more than a football player.
- 26:04Speaker 3: You won't play football forever. I'm not talking about that.
- 26:07Speaker 3: Something is off with Josh Allen. I listened to Joe Marina,
- 26:12Speaker 3: who I trust he watches those All twenty two films.
- 26:14Speaker 3: He said Josh's eyes were in the wrong places many
- 26:17Speaker 3: times DT on Monday Night, many times that one blitz
- 26:20Speaker 3: where he gets picked up by three falcons and driven back.
- 26:23Speaker 3: They talked about how the fact that Collusia care and
- 26:25Speaker 3: they see it on the All twenty two he is
- 26:27Speaker 3: wide open as soon as they come on that jail break.
- 26:30Speaker 3: Something is off with seventeenth. I don't know what it is.
- 26:33Speaker 3: I have never remembered the last time anybody wanted to say,
- 26:36Speaker 3: let's go ahead on and blitz this dude, because they
- 26:38Speaker 3: would get toasted DT cheed, they would get annihilated if
- 26:42Speaker 3: they wanted to try to blitz seventeen like this. Nobody
- 26:46Speaker 3: is scared of us. I understand the outside weapons are
- 26:48Speaker 3: a major issue. Nobody is scared of us, and they
- 26:51Speaker 3: are blitzing our quarterback. I don't want him to getting
- 26:53Speaker 3: hit like that. He was getting hit all day long,
- 26:56Speaker 3: Monday night, all night long, DT.
- 26:58Speaker 4: Too many hands that. You're right, that's a good point
- 27:03Speaker 4: because if yeah, blitz Josh Allen, please please blitz him
- 27:08Speaker 4: right like that's what we've been saying like that.
- 27:10Speaker 3: We would love it. We'd love it. You're back to
- 27:12Speaker 3: the defense.
- 27:13Speaker 4: He have a field day, yeah, and Monday didn't look
- 27:18Speaker 4: great with that, But there was also it just seemed
- 27:23Speaker 4: like that first read just was never there all night either.
- 27:25Speaker 4: You know, I think I don't think he got the
- 27:27Speaker 4: ball out on the first read at all. And that
- 27:29Speaker 4: might be some of him, and that might be some
- 27:31Speaker 4: of people just not being there and scheme and getting
- 27:33Speaker 4: open and then and the inexperience. Joe Brady needs to
- 27:36Speaker 4: start throwing some layups in to get in a rhythm,
- 27:38Speaker 4: get it going right, right. But that so that was
- 27:41Speaker 4: my argument when you started talking about this, But then
- 27:44Speaker 4: you brought up the blitz saying and it was like, yeah, like,
- 27:46Speaker 4: we hold this dude to such a high standard because
- 27:49Speaker 4: he's he's showing us time and time again that he
- 27:51Speaker 4: can live up to it. Blitzing is like rule rule
- 27:54Speaker 4: one A. You don't blitz him, like you're an idiot
- 27:57Speaker 4: if you do. And they did. They did every play
- 28:00Speaker 4: and got to him and made it happen. So it's
- 28:03Speaker 4: I think, again going to my first point of the show,
- 28:05Speaker 4: I mix the whole entire team, nobody helping anybody out.
- 28:08Speaker 4: Joe Bray didn't help out with the play calling there,
- 28:10Speaker 4: Josh Allen didn't help out by being a dog and
- 28:13Speaker 4: a superman in the offensive line, you know, didn't necessarily
- 28:16Speaker 4: do the best in picking all of them up. But
- 28:18Speaker 4: that is a great point that this is a no
- 28:21Speaker 4: brainer and it's happening very easily with one of like
- 28:24Speaker 4: and then as a good defense, but like, come on,
- 28:26Speaker 4: they're not a super Bowl contender, you know, They're not
- 28:28Speaker 4: a defense that's you're like worried about, and they're coming
- 28:30Speaker 4: at you guns blazing with no fear, so nothing's off.
- 28:35Speaker 4: I just think maybe a little slump, maybe a lot
- 28:37Speaker 4: of that, Like, shit is the biggest it's ever been
- 28:40Speaker 4: around him, and you know, coming off coming off the
- 28:43Speaker 4: MVP and coming off all right, we need to win
- 28:46Speaker 4: that super Bowl. So you got to have longevity and
- 28:48Speaker 4: you gotta and and it's just bigger, like Okay, now,
- 28:51Speaker 4: this is like real, real, like I need to I
- 28:53Speaker 4: need to preserve myself. I need to be okay for
- 28:55Speaker 4: this city. And maybe you know that's something. But if
- 29:00Speaker 4: he has also shown us anything in his career, it's
- 29:02Speaker 4: that he's extremely coachable and he learns and gets better
- 29:05Speaker 4: and better and better. So if that is the hurdle
- 29:07Speaker 4: he is facing right now, and he he falters a
- 29:09Speaker 4: little bit at this point in the season. Take this
- 29:12Speaker 4: bye week. That dude said it with the with the
- 29:14Speaker 4: cameras around him, he says, it takes the US three
- 29:16Speaker 4: months to correct. It takes this dude, It takes this
- 29:19Speaker 4: to two reps. And I think it's the same in
- 29:21Speaker 4: his head too. I think that's why he's I think
- 29:23Speaker 4: he's he's on certified high IQ level, like he's just
- 29:27Speaker 4: one of those like goofy geniuses. And so if this
- 29:30Speaker 4: is all getting to his head and it's getting him
- 29:32Speaker 4: off a little and he's second guessing where he used
- 29:34Speaker 4: to just put it in there, Hopefully he can learn
- 29:37Speaker 4: quick from it and move on. And we've seen him
- 29:39Speaker 4: do that, you know, time in and time out. But
- 29:41Speaker 4: great point about the blitz, because that's that's it's not
- 29:43Speaker 4: even something that's like in the oh oh yeah. Also,
- 29:46Speaker 4: don't blitz them.
- 29:47Speaker 3: It's like number one, it's the first.
- 29:49Speaker 4: So that's a good point.
- 29:51Speaker 3: Shee. What what's going on with with with seventeen? Do
- 29:53Speaker 3: you do you notice anything different? His body language was
- 29:56Speaker 3: was was completely shitty. By the way. Once Now obviously
- 29:59Speaker 3: we don't see him. We're not at the stadium in
- 30:01Speaker 3: the Mercedes Benz but we're not. We don't watch him
- 30:03Speaker 3: from the sideline. But his body language was not good.
- 30:06Speaker 3: You could tell he was frustrated. You could tell that
- 30:08Speaker 3: he I mean the one time when he threw the pick,
- 30:10Speaker 3: he literally just and like looked at this. I was like,
- 30:13Speaker 3: I don't see. I don't see that out of him
- 30:15Speaker 3: very often, you know what I mean? Like, I don't
- 30:17Speaker 3: Is there is it something off?
- 30:18Speaker 1: Is?
- 30:18Speaker 3: I mean, what's going on? Man? Is it break?
- 30:20Speaker 2: I just I just think for me, I kind of agree.
- 30:23Speaker 2: I agree with DT. It's early. Right, We're only six
- 30:26Speaker 2: games in, right, it's still early. I think though, what
- 30:29Speaker 2: you're watching, especially in the Atlanta game and then the
- 30:33Speaker 2: Patriots game. Is he was pressing a little bit right
- 30:36Speaker 2: those interceptions, trying to get the ball to secure. I
- 30:39Speaker 2: don't really want to say, you know, there's something specific off.
- 30:42Speaker 2: I just want to say, hey, these are two games.
- 30:44Speaker 2: He's Josh Allen, he's the MVP. He's going to be
- 30:47Speaker 2: back on this game.
- 30:48Speaker 3: Now.
- 30:49Speaker 2: I think he's pressing. I think he you know, Josh,
- 30:51Speaker 2: he does watch him. When you know the flip pass
- 30:53Speaker 2: that he did out to Ty Johnson, he didn't have
- 30:56Speaker 2: to do that, right, So he watches and he wants
- 30:59Speaker 2: to highlights things. It was one year he was doing
- 31:01Speaker 2: on his Instagram, like the high heights of himself. So really, Josh,
- 31:07Speaker 2: joshould just need to focus.
- 31:08Speaker 1: Man.
- 31:08Speaker 2: I want Tom. I want Josh Allen to be so
- 31:11Speaker 2: much of Tom Brady it kills me on the inside.
- 31:13Speaker 2: I think it's his focus. He gotta have that singular focus.
- 31:17Speaker 2: I think he's pressing a little bit right now, but
- 31:19Speaker 2: as early so I really can't say anything's off at
- 31:22Speaker 2: the moment.
- 31:23Speaker 3: Okay, all right, as we begin the transition, we'll go
- 31:26Speaker 3: to the other side of the football. Well, things did
- 31:29Speaker 3: not get much better on there. Now, it was a
- 31:31Speaker 3: tailor two halves. We'll give credit words due. We bashed McDermott,
- 31:34Speaker 3: so we got to at least give a little bit
- 31:35Speaker 3: of credit if things cleared up in the second half.
- 31:37Speaker 3: That first half over three hundred and fifty yards of
- 31:41Speaker 3: offense to the Atlanta Falcons. Now a lot of people say, well,
- 31:44Speaker 3: we should have known this matchup was bad with Bjon,
- 31:46Speaker 3: we should have known this matchup it's gonna be bad.
- 31:48Speaker 3: I saw the secondary just giving space to Drake London.
- 31:51Speaker 3: I didn't even know Drake London played in the slot
- 31:53Speaker 3: until I watched that game. I mean, I guess I
- 31:55Speaker 3: could have known, But like I was, like, this dude
- 31:57Speaker 3: play in the slot. I thought he was like a
- 31:59Speaker 3: Mike Evanson the out. He was getting everything he wanted DT.
- 32:02Speaker 3: Everything was easy. I counted, I didn't count. Excuse me,
- 32:06Speaker 3: I take that back. Joe Marino and those guys talked
- 32:08Speaker 3: about nineteen missed tackles by the defense, seven by the
- 32:12Speaker 3: safeties alone on Monday night. That is not going to
- 32:16Speaker 3: get it done. DT. What did you see in that
- 32:20Speaker 3: first half? Because for me, I know you called me
- 32:22Speaker 3: at halftime, it was it was tough to watch. I
- 32:25Speaker 3: couldn't even believe what I was seeing because Atlanta I
- 32:28Speaker 3: had never seen them look like that with Michael Penni's
- 32:30Speaker 3: a young quarterback. They looked unstoppable. And it wasn't for
- 32:34Speaker 3: a foot We've been down twenty eight to seven, and
- 32:36Speaker 3: that that shit would have been over at halftime.
- 32:38Speaker 4: Yeah, facts and the tailor two halves, but I think
- 32:41Speaker 4: the Falcons completely took their foot off the gas in
- 32:43Speaker 4: the second absolutely, and if they wanted a gash to say,
- 32:46Speaker 4: they might have, you know, in the second half.
- 32:48Speaker 3: So that's true, that's true.
- 32:50Speaker 4: Unacceptable. I mean, you go back again with penalties again
- 32:53Speaker 4: with even though the one tray white PI was BS,
- 32:56Speaker 4: but still two.
- 32:57Speaker 3: Off sides on the first play with a fumble.
- 32:59Speaker 4: With a fumble, third two, third down pass interference, Like
- 33:05Speaker 4: you said, nineteen miss tackles seven by the safeties. I
- 33:07Speaker 4: told you when I called you at the first half.
- 33:10Speaker 4: Every slow motion replay, so every first down play basically
- 33:13Speaker 4: the Falcons had it's just twenty four either on the
- 33:16Speaker 4: ground missing a tackle or like not anywhere near like
- 33:19Speaker 4: in position where he should be like on his heels
- 33:21Speaker 4: chasing four. Yes, but in that it was specifically Coot
- 33:26Speaker 4: Bishop in every one of those highlights that I was like, man,
- 33:28Speaker 4: what like, we're not laying licks, We're not getting anything.
- 33:31Speaker 4: We weren't getting the pressure we needed. Granted, I mean
- 33:34Speaker 4: Dakwan Jones goes out warm ups like come on and
- 33:37Speaker 4: you know, or four dudes deep and the defensive tackle
- 33:41Speaker 4: side we got backups in. But whatever, we gotta be
- 33:44Speaker 4: more disciplined. We got to have that effort you talked
- 33:46Speaker 4: about when Nate we talked about when date it is
- 33:48Speaker 4: at his game, Like, yes, we might be down and
- 33:50Speaker 4: out and we might not have the personnel that it's
- 33:52Speaker 4: going to look like in the playoffs, but we got
- 33:54Speaker 4: to have effort. We got out here and get and
- 33:56Speaker 4: flow to the ball and lay licks on a team
- 33:58Speaker 4: that a quarterback that we could make quick quick And
- 34:02Speaker 4: my biggest thing with the defense is the two playmakers
- 34:06Speaker 4: on this Atlanta Falcons team, Like two guys Drake London
- 34:09Speaker 4: and be John Robinson. It's not easy to just say
- 34:12Speaker 4: shut him down, but throw other resources in there and
- 34:16Speaker 4: literally invite you to beat with somebody else. That's what
- 34:19Speaker 4: I think the game plan from a very inexperienced Madden
- 34:23Speaker 4: defensive coordiner and myself would be take away their playmakers
- 34:27Speaker 4: and let somebody else beat you on an inferior team, right,
- 34:31Speaker 4: and instead these dudes have two hundred fifty yards a piece,
- 34:35Speaker 4: you know. And so what was the game plan then?
- 34:39Speaker 4: If it wasn't to take them out? What was the
- 34:41Speaker 4: game plan defensively? It wasn't. It wasn't to miss nineteen tackles,
- 34:45Speaker 4: you know, it wasn't to commit all those penalties. So
- 34:47Speaker 4: what was the game plan if it wasn't to take
- 34:49Speaker 4: out five and seven? Because if that was the game plan,
- 34:52Speaker 4: then we got even more problems because that's that's a
- 34:55Speaker 4: complete failure. But what that's my issue here? What was
- 34:59Speaker 4: the game plan offensively? Because none of it made sense?
- 35:04Speaker 3: Man? What did you see? Man? Because this is weird? Man. Yeah.
- 35:07Speaker 2: Well, one thing I like about watching Lewis Reddick, uh
- 35:11Speaker 2: and uh Dan Aloski is that they're they're very intelligent
- 35:16Speaker 2: football forming football players, and I the baby in the
- 35:19Speaker 2: back and everything.
- 35:21Speaker 3: I love them both. I love them both.
- 35:23Speaker 2: Yeah and so and so Lewis Ridick and Dan Aloski
- 35:26Speaker 2: was telling you, Hey, the Bill's got to come out
- 35:28Speaker 2: of his own defense. They was telling you that in
- 35:31Speaker 2: the first half, in the first quarter, they got it
- 35:33Speaker 2: and I've been telling people we're playing too much damn nickel.
- 35:36Speaker 2: Anytime you see Johnson on the field, the Bills are
- 35:40Speaker 2: in a nickel's right. It's Sean McDermott believes that he
- 35:44Speaker 2: could run a nickel against anybody. And I said this
- 35:47Speaker 2: on my Twitter. Is that arrogance? I see arrogance when
- 35:52Speaker 2: you try to believe you can do something absent at
- 35:55Speaker 2: the talent, that having the ability to do it, meaning
- 35:58Speaker 2: that you don't have the talent, and they would send
- 36:00Speaker 2: it all through. Hey, uh, you know this isn't Michael High.
- 36:04Speaker 2: These these players are just running back into their specific
- 36:06Speaker 2: zone area and they're not making plays. The reality of
- 36:09Speaker 2: this situation is the Bills have a terrible defense. I
- 36:12Speaker 2: was looking at the stats earlier. We're in the bottom
- 36:14Speaker 2: third in the league and most stats that really matter.
- 36:18Speaker 2: You got your cold Bishop is terrible. Let's let's just
- 36:21Speaker 2: be honest. Taylor rat is terrible, Let's be honest. And
- 36:25Speaker 2: then you got your Davy is White, he's playing terrible,
- 36:28Speaker 2: Let's be honest. And Christian Benford isn't playing good and
- 36:31Speaker 2: hasn't been playing good. The only bright spot on this
- 36:34Speaker 2: defense right now too. Maybe there's two, maybe there's three
- 36:38Speaker 2: Joe Oliver, so Ed Oliver and Dion Walker thing, and
- 36:44Speaker 2: the rest is like what do you do? And then
- 36:46Speaker 2: you got Bobby Babbage and then and then you say,
- 36:50Speaker 2: Rob you came out, you said the second half was better.
- 36:53Speaker 2: You're right, it was. But oftentimes when we're watching these
- 36:56Speaker 2: Bills games, the second half is better when you're gonna
- 36:59Speaker 2: realize that you got do in the first half, would
- 37:01Speaker 2: you want to do in the second half so you
- 37:03Speaker 2: don't have to get better and make adjustments. This is
- 37:06Speaker 2: a game plan, and this is coaching, this is experience.
- 37:09Speaker 2: Is a failure of it. I think, Robert, you froeh.
- 37:21Speaker 3: I mean it's just so weak. Yeah, no, I'm good.
- 37:30Speaker 3: I'm good. I'm here. I don't know what's going on, man,
- 37:31Speaker 3: But I mean it's it's so weird because DT said,
- 37:35Speaker 3: what was the game plan? What was the game plan?
- 37:38Speaker 3: And I don't I don't really understand because when they
- 37:41Speaker 3: parted started playing, man, they got better, like like things
- 37:44Speaker 3: got better the whole started. I just don't get what
- 37:50Speaker 3: they were trying to accounlis. I think that I think
- 37:51Speaker 3: that that's my main problem is that maybe it is
- 37:53Speaker 3: McDermott arrogance because he does not come out of nickel.
- 37:56Speaker 3: He loves to play zone. It's that it's that Ben
- 37:58Speaker 3: don't break. And I understand that they don't have mad Max,
- 38:00Speaker 3: and I understand that trade is older. But if something
- 38:03Speaker 3: is not working, you have got to do something different.
- 38:06Speaker 3: And they were just getting tuned up all half long.
- 38:09Speaker 3: Drake London looked like the second coming of I don't
- 38:12Speaker 3: know who I mean, Randy. It was. It was ridiculous
- 38:15Speaker 3: seeing how open he was on all of these zone
- 38:18Speaker 3: routes where he was just fighting space robe.
- 38:22Speaker 2: What does bend don't break mean define that for me?
- 38:25Speaker 3: I guess. I guess. His philosophy is we'll let you
- 38:28Speaker 3: get your yards between between the twenties. When you get
- 38:30Speaker 3: down to the red zone, you are not scoring on us.
- 38:32Speaker 3: And that's been one of the philosophies that he's had
- 38:35Speaker 3: since the beginning, even when Leslie Fraser was here. It
- 38:38Speaker 3: was more of a bend don't break. We're not gonna
- 38:39Speaker 3: make mistakes, We're not gonna get beat over the top.
- 38:42Speaker 3: You're not going to take the top of our off
- 38:44Speaker 3: of our defense, and when you get down in the
- 38:46Speaker 3: red zone, we're gonna bow up. And none of that
- 38:48Speaker 3: shit is working right now.
- 38:50Speaker 2: What bowl I haven't seen no boul. All I see
- 38:53Speaker 2: is v Jon Robinson is his name, and he's gone
- 38:57Speaker 2: for Indy.
- 38:59Speaker 3: It was. It was ridiculous and and and I don't
- 39:02Speaker 3: I don't know, DT. I mean, listen, the problem I think,
- 39:07Speaker 3: the main problem that I have DT about it is
- 39:09Speaker 3: that what do I get beat down with immediately on
- 39:12Speaker 3: Twitter is that we are injured. And I am like, man,
- 39:15Speaker 3: you are not. We are not the only football team
- 39:18Speaker 3: in the National Football League that is dealing with injuries.
- 39:20Speaker 3: And when it is your side of the ball, I
- 39:22Speaker 3: expect something different. He put it in. He put it
- 39:25Speaker 3: in his uh his postgame press conference. I was right
- 39:28Speaker 3: on his ass as soon as he said it. He
- 39:30Speaker 3: snuck it in there. He talked about, oh yah, we're
- 39:32Speaker 3: fighting through stuff, and we're fighting through this and fighting
- 39:34Speaker 3: through injury. And I was like, no, don't. I don't
- 39:36Speaker 3: want to know, don't want to hear it, don't want
- 39:37Speaker 3: to hear it when it's your side of the ball, DT.
- 39:40Speaker 3: I can't every year, every year, DT, we're gonna just
- 39:45Speaker 3: give him an excuse of the of injuries every year,
- 39:48Speaker 3: when when San Francisco's coming out with all these guys hurt,
- 39:51Speaker 3: still winning games, beating the Rams when you know what
- 39:54Speaker 3: I mean, like, uh, the Bucks. The Bucks have nobody
- 39:57Speaker 3: for baking the throat throw to still bomb bombs over.
- 40:00Speaker 3: I cannot give him. I can't give him the injury thing.
- 40:05Speaker 3: Not every year, DT, not every single year.
- 40:08Speaker 4: That's fair. But have this now, This is probably the
- 40:13Speaker 4: worst you felt about a a Sean McDermott defense. Would
- 40:15Speaker 4: you both agree to that right now today? This is
- 40:19Speaker 4: probably the worse you feel of a Sean McDermott defense
- 40:21Speaker 4: in this whole tenure. Okay, So if it is like
- 40:26Speaker 4: she'd said earlier, if it is trying to just do
- 40:29Speaker 4: something that you don't have the talent to do, when
- 40:32Speaker 4: you just keep trying to do it, then that's bad
- 40:34Speaker 4: coaching and you deserve to be you know, ridiculed and
- 40:37Speaker 4: maybe fired because of it. But this is an opportunity
- 40:41Speaker 4: to be, you know, to show that you are a
- 40:44Speaker 4: good coach, especially on the defensive side of the ball.
- 40:46Speaker 4: You are outmatched on talent defensively, that that is shown.
- 40:49Speaker 4: I mean, too many young guys. Hopefully these guys come
- 40:52Speaker 4: back after you know, after the the suspension.
- 40:56Speaker 3: Yeah, bast brothers come back.
- 40:58Speaker 4: And they you know, make a difference and we can
- 41:01Speaker 4: hold a little longer and be a little better with
- 41:04Speaker 4: what we have. Maxwell Harrison comes back, or Trey White
- 41:07Speaker 4: gets better, Benford's finally hits his groove, whatever the case is,
- 41:10Speaker 4: get in a groove and be good to what we have.
- 41:13Speaker 4: But if that talent can consistently keeps getting beat, if
- 41:16Speaker 4: we go in the you know, Carolina Panthers put up
- 41:19Speaker 4: some yards and points on us and we're like, man,
- 41:22Speaker 4: this defense is bit actually big time in trouble, then
- 41:25Speaker 4: it's up to the coach and Sean McDermott, Bobby Babite
- 41:27Speaker 4: and see how good you are. You're gonna have to
- 41:29Speaker 4: start changing philosophy into mind control. You know, you're gonna
- 41:33Speaker 4: have to show You're gonna have to be masking stuff.
- 41:35Speaker 4: You're gonna have to show different coverages and then be
- 41:37Speaker 4: in a different one. You're gonna have to trick other
- 41:40Speaker 4: teams because you're not gonna be able to beat them physically,
- 41:42Speaker 4: you know, on the field. So that's gonna be I
- 41:45Speaker 4: think an opportunity where we feel the worst right now
- 41:48Speaker 4: about we ever have about a Sean McDermott defense. So
- 41:51Speaker 4: it either comes together like it has the last seven
- 41:53Speaker 4: years with kind of what we have and it falls
- 41:55Speaker 4: in place, bendo, break whatever, and that's what we get.
- 41:59Speaker 4: Or they continue to look like this every week and
- 42:02Speaker 4: it's like this dude's gotta go. Or he comes out
- 42:06Speaker 4: and says, all right, we're gonna change up the philosophy.
- 42:08Speaker 4: We're gonna give you different looks, we're gonna blitz more,
- 42:10Speaker 4: we're gonna pull this guy back. We're gonna yeah, and
- 42:14Speaker 4: completely change up mind control because you can't be their
- 42:17Speaker 4: talented and then they succeed with it. That's a hell
- 42:19Speaker 4: of a job coaching. And that's why he is a
- 42:21Speaker 4: defensive mastermind. So three options there. But what we see
- 42:26Speaker 4: the past couple of weeks obviously is unacceptable.
- 42:30Speaker 2: A lot of comments, D see a lot of comments.
- 42:33Speaker 2: I would just say, I can't call him a guru.
- 42:36Speaker 2: I can't call him a mastermind. Right, It's like Elon
- 42:40Speaker 2: Musk is the artificial intelligence autonomous vehicle mastermind because he
- 42:47Speaker 2: has Tesla and they're out there and is autonomously running
- 42:50Speaker 2: by itself. But if you've got a defense and you
- 42:53Speaker 2: call it a mastermind and you're the bottom third of
- 42:55Speaker 2: the league, you're a mastermind of nothing.
- 42:58Speaker 3: He's ah, we're so we're we then so then let
- 43:04Speaker 3: me let's okay, let's be fear for the people that
- 43:06Speaker 3: bashed me on the head sheet on Twitter with injuries.
- 43:09Speaker 3: So how much is it on injuries? Then? Is it?
- 43:11Speaker 3: Is it because we're hurt? So so when everybody gets back,
- 43:14Speaker 3: So Bash brothers come back against Carolina, We've got mad
- 43:18Speaker 3: Max on the clock. Maybe he can make it back
- 43:20Speaker 3: for Kansas City. Maybe not, maybe the week after. Who
- 43:23Speaker 3: else are we waiting on? Okay, maybe Dakwon Jones is
- 43:26Speaker 3: not really seriously injured. He's got you know, he's got
- 43:27Speaker 3: a calf. Maybe he misses the Carolina game. We got
- 43:29Speaker 3: the buy week built in right now when everybody's healthy,
- 43:32Speaker 3: is everything? Okay?
- 43:34Speaker 2: How how many years are we gonna keep playing the
- 43:36Speaker 2: same record and expecting something different and didn't give them
- 43:39Speaker 2: the person to pass because because of the same old
- 43:42Speaker 2: reasons we gave him a pass last year. At what
- 43:45Speaker 2: point do we say, okay, cool, yeah you didn't have
- 43:48Speaker 2: your full complimented guys, but it's time for us to
- 43:51Speaker 2: make a change, buddy, Okay, And maybe it's you're responsible
- 43:56Speaker 2: for this strength and conditioning toach coaching staff is well
- 44:00Speaker 2: and these guys are getting soft injuries ultimately and not
- 44:04Speaker 2: saying you can control things of soft tissue injuries, things
- 44:07Speaker 2: of that nature. But ultimately, maybe there's something there. If
- 44:11Speaker 2: you're at the year your guys cannot stay healthy. Maybe
- 44:14Speaker 2: it's the way they practice, Maybe it's the way they
- 44:16Speaker 2: are in the weight room, maybe it's nutrition. I'm no
- 44:19Speaker 2: longer affording him, absolving him of the responsibility of not
- 44:24Speaker 2: being able to get it done irrespective of injuries.
- 44:27Speaker 4: I get it.
- 44:28Speaker 2: Injuries matters, talent matters on the field, but he's run
- 44:31Speaker 2: out of curies.
- 44:33Speaker 3: We hear it all, We hear it all. I mean,
- 44:36Speaker 3: as we begin to wrap up tonight, sheet, I enjoy
- 44:39Speaker 3: you so much just because you will you'll keep it funky.

- 45:04Speaker 2: I do a post game right after the game. You
- 45:06Speaker 2: can find me there. I'm trying to be more consistent.
- 45:09Speaker 2: I love being on with Rob Crippen and DT. I
- 45:11Speaker 2: appreciate your time you guys. Keep it funky. Yes, your
- 45:14Speaker 2: thoughts out loud, baby, and tell them the truth, the truth.
- 45:18Speaker 3: I'll see y'all later. Thanks for your time, man, I
- 45:21Speaker 3: appreciate you. She Man, it was good to have you
- 45:23Speaker 3: on as well. Man. Listen, uh DT. Now wait, she
- 45:26Speaker 3: before you go, before you go, before you go do it?
- 45:30Speaker 3: So is this just the blip every year? I heard
- 45:32Speaker 3: I heard on w g R. Well, the Bills have
- 45:34Speaker 3: lost two straight games dating back all the way to
- 45:36Speaker 3: nineteen ninety one, which predates mcnervan, And this is just
- 45:39Speaker 3: what happens. Okay, I will give space for that. It's
- 45:42Speaker 3: everything is the schedule just so damn easy that everything
- 45:45Speaker 3: is fine, Like it's just it's just all gonna be fine.
- 45:49Speaker 2: It depends on what on what the outcome is that
- 45:52Speaker 2: satisfy you. If the outcoming is losing to Kansas City
- 45:55Speaker 2: or anyone else, and everything will be just fine. I
- 45:59Speaker 2: want to get talking that you're looking for is winning
- 46:01Speaker 2: the super Bowl? Then everything isn't just fine. Defense wins championship.
- 46:06Speaker 2: That cliche has been true for years, and then we
- 46:08Speaker 2: remain the same. Josh Allen, the Superman and the Bill's
- 46:12Speaker 2: schedule is such that they're gonna win the AFC East,
- 46:15Speaker 2: hopefully without a challenge to New England. They're gonna make
- 46:17Speaker 2: the playoffs, But are the Super Bowl contenders?
- 46:20Speaker 4: Is this defense?
- 46:21Speaker 2: Do you see twenty four and nine making the proper
- 46:24Speaker 2: stops in the playoffs? The answer is no, So we
- 46:28Speaker 2: just gotta keep it real.
- 46:29Speaker 3: God damn all right, See, I love you, man D.
- 46:37Speaker 3: Before we get to the report, I'll ask I'll pose
- 46:40Speaker 3: the same question to my co host, mister DT, mister
- 46:43Speaker 3: demp Truck. Is it is this all just it's all
- 46:46Speaker 3: gonna be good? It's all gonna be good.
- 46:48Speaker 4: I think we're right to criticize, but I have to
- 46:51Speaker 4: be glass half full here at four and two, you know,
- 46:53Speaker 4: almost tied for the n CS. The schedule that's very
- 46:56Speaker 4: winnable going forward. The MVP at quarterback, a team that defensively,
- 47:01Speaker 4: we've kind of bitched about a lot of the same
- 47:03Speaker 4: things for years, but they always kind of figure it
- 47:04Speaker 4: out enough to get us in that double digit win total.
- 47:07Speaker 4: So I glass half full. I gotta say it's a blip.
- 47:10Speaker 4: Let's get out after the bye week and lay the
- 47:12Speaker 4: beat down with you and I and witness next Sunday
- 47:14Speaker 4: and get right back on track. So that's where I
- 47:16Speaker 4: am glass half full. We got the MVP. Come hang
- 47:19Speaker 4: on us, all right.
- 47:20Speaker 3: I got you. I'm with you, man. I reserve the
- 47:25Speaker 3: right to change my mind. I think that if two
- 47:28Speaker 3: weeks ago I thought that they could win the Super Bowl,
- 47:31Speaker 3: I still do think that. However, I do think that
- 47:33Speaker 3: there are some there are some flaws with Joe Brady.
- 47:37Speaker 3: I feel like there or as you alluded to earlier,
- 47:39Speaker 3: maybe it's all McDermott. There are some flaws with the
- 47:42Speaker 3: offensive philosophy. That's why I named the episode the way
- 47:44Speaker 3: that I did. There are some flaws with the defensive philosophy.
- 47:48Speaker 3: It's all McDermott to get that right, because that's his baby,
- 47:50Speaker 3: that's the side of the ball. So I reserve my
- 47:52Speaker 3: right to change my mind. But if I thought at
- 47:55Speaker 3: four and oh they could win it, I still think
- 47:57Speaker 3: we can win it. I'm not even greedy. I just
- 48:00Speaker 3: want just can I just wake up on Sunday barning
- 48:02Speaker 3: at Super Bowl Sunday of my team is in it.
- 48:05Speaker 3: That's all I want right now, and I'll let the
- 48:06Speaker 3: chips fall from there. Excuse me now as we begin

- 49:48Speaker 4: It is a paradise of of gas station and rest
- 49:52Speaker 4: stop and everything put together. It's one of the best
- 49:55Speaker 4: experiences I've ever seen with a situation like that right
- 49:58Speaker 4: up my alley. I loved every second of it, you know,
- 50:02Speaker 4: it was. It was a great time in there. Would
- 50:04Speaker 4: recommend it to the whole Nickel City crew. Get to
- 50:06Speaker 4: a Bucket's near you. That was stopped because we had
- 50:11Speaker 4: to get some tailgate stuff to go up. And we
- 50:13Speaker 4: hit Penn State this weekend their homecoming. It was right
- 50:16Speaker 4: on our way up me Kai and Page, the newly weds,
- 50:18Speaker 4: and I like it was all week rolled up to
- 50:20Speaker 4: Penn State their homecoming against Northwestern. It was bumping similar game.
- 50:25Speaker 4: You know, I've been to a few Penn State games
- 50:27Speaker 4: shout out to Day today, but the you know, this
- 50:31Speaker 4: was the first time I actually went and like tailgated,
- 50:33Speaker 4: you know, and like walked through the tailgate. We gave
- 50:35Speaker 4: me big at Beaver Stadium, one hundred and ten thousand,
- 50:38Speaker 4: and it was homecoming. I think there was one hundred
- 50:40Speaker 4: and eight in the stadium for homecoming. Even though they've
- 50:42Speaker 4: been sucking. It was all you know, all the other
- 50:44Speaker 4: we were tailgating next to alumni from all over and
- 50:47Speaker 4: and it gave me real Bill's Mafia vibes. Rob it was.
- 50:50Speaker 4: It was out in the field, you know, wasn't this crazy,
- 50:53Speaker 4: wasn't as crazy, but people as you started getting closer
- 50:56Speaker 4: to the stadium, you know, you started seeing the setups
- 50:58Speaker 4: and and there was some you know, they're professionals out there,
- 51:01Speaker 4: just like just like the mafias. At some points too.
- 51:03Speaker 4: There's some diehards that have been going to you know,
- 51:05Speaker 4: Penn State games for forty fifty years, and it showed
- 51:08Speaker 4: they had some nice setups. So got into that stadium homecoming,
- 51:12Speaker 4: beautiful day, that's just awesome, you know, big ten ball,
- 51:15Speaker 4: the bands, going, the crowd into it. But Penn State
- 51:19Speaker 4: stinks and they fired They fired Franklin right right, shit,
- 51:26Speaker 4: I want to get fired for that, and fired Franklin
- 51:30Speaker 4: in front of us, drew Whaler's leg snap in front
- 51:32Speaker 4: of us. You know, quite a wild game and shot out.
- 51:35Speaker 4: Northwestern came in there with one hundred and eight thousand
- 51:38Speaker 4: and and took care of business on their homecoming. So
- 51:41Speaker 4: that was a nice cap to a full their wedding
- 51:43Speaker 4: the week before the traveling to Virginia the next week
- 51:46Speaker 4: boom ended with Penn State. Uh and then got back

- 54:18Speaker 3: over there with multiple households, but that was By Monday night,
- 54:22Speaker 3: I was arguing with my ex wife for the first half,
- 54:26Speaker 3: kid crying right before halftime, and then I had to
- 54:29Speaker 3: go Grabnate because I'm like, well, he's a Bills fan
- 54:31Speaker 3: like his father, like he wants to see the game.
- 54:33Speaker 3: I was. It killed me and crushed me that he
- 54:35Speaker 3: was crying. I was like, I'm on my way, no problem.

- 54:55Speaker 3: He got dropped off, and they all came over because
- 54:58Speaker 3: it wasn't working at her house for the stream and
- 55:00Speaker 3: for the ticket and they finished up here and I
- 55:02Speaker 3: was washing dishes at the end of the night. By
- 55:05Speaker 3: the time the fourth quarter, it was brown and I
- 55:06Speaker 3: was just like, this is deja vu. I'm like, and
- 55:08Speaker 3: that's what I posted out there this week, shout out
- 55:10Speaker 3: to Olivia Nagel, like this just felt like dejah vou.
- 55:13Speaker 3: It was a weird, it was a weird, eerie feeling
- 55:16Speaker 3: DT because We remember those back to back games last
- 55:18Speaker 3: week last year. We remember, you know, being going out
- 55:22Speaker 3: and getting Cooper and they if the wide receivers can't separate,
- 55:26Speaker 3: why are you throwing sideline deep balls to Kean Coleman
- 55:29Speaker 3: that are not If somebody else calls those fifty fifty
- 55:31Speaker 3: balls one more fucking time, those are not fifty fifty
- 55:34Speaker 3: balls though, they're like twenty eighty balls or fifteen you
- 55:37Speaker 3: know what I mean, eighty five Like, it's not those
- 55:39Speaker 3: are not fifty to fifty balls even close. I gotta
- 55:42Speaker 3: see something different, DT, I gotta see something different, man.

- 55:48Speaker 4: can't be fun the past few weeks past three four.
- 55:51Speaker 4: You know, film can't be fun. A lot of miss assignments,
- 55:53Speaker 4: a lot of discipline stuff that a bye week usually
- 55:55Speaker 4: can fix, get some guys back healthy. If something is
- 55:58Speaker 4: off with seventeen, did it right in this bye week?
- 56:01Speaker 3: Us?
- 56:01Speaker 4: You know it was off. He's watching that film and
- 56:03Speaker 4: the game cast of him, you know literally, you know,
- 56:06Speaker 4: looking like a wounded deer on the on the sideline.
- 56:09Speaker 4: Every single possession had the ball, the MVP had the
- 56:13Speaker 4: ball in his hands. Down one possession eight times on
- 56:16Speaker 4: Monday Night, Rob you know, so that's what it comes
- 56:18Speaker 4: down to. We gotta put the ball in get eight times, down, down,
- 56:22Speaker 4: one down, down in points.
