• 1:00
  Speaker 1: again today, and as always, these are my Bill's thoughts
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: set out loud. It's about so ridiculous to start the saying,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: was sick show? I can let me where's what you
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: want to be? All right, let's get straight to it.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Really excited for tonight's episode, as I always am. It's funny.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: I was thinking about it earlier in the day that
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: you know, sometimes you ask for something and you really
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: want something, and then you get it and if it
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: doesn't exactly seem like it's turning out the way that
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: you wanted it or you dreamed of it. You can
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: get a little bit of anxiety, and I would I
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: would describe that as the first half of the Bills
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Titans game this past week. I've been dying for a
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: wide receiver one, been asking for it all off season.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Braindon Bean finally delivers and the Bills didn't look like
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: they were ready to play to start the first half,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: and I started to get a little bit nervous. Help
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: me get through some of that, as always joining me
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: right tonight, writing Shaka mis co host Adam dump Truck Repsick.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Check them out on Instagram and Twitter at Adam Rupsick.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Are you c z yk? How had the crew dt?
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: I was a little bit nervous. I think, what was it?
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: The Amari dropped that first pass of like third down,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: It could have just moved the chains. I'm like, okay,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: let's go, And then they were sleepwalking in all of
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: a sudden, the Bills are down early in the game
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and early in the half, and and then obviously second
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: half they woke up.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Rob Nickel City, what's up everybody? Tgif this little
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Friday vibe. We got going a little happy with the
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: Nickel City getting into the weekend, starting it off, you know,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: getting this is the time you should start ramping up
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: your your Bill's hype for the weekend. Yeah, you can't
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: be unhealthy and be crazy all week. You gotta you know,
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: start ramping it up now. So yeah, I mean, a
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: tough start, but a twenty four point win and can't
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: wait to get into it. Let's go five and two.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Let's go click clack me back. You know, it's funny
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: DT because when I thought about the game, and you know,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: everybody was excited about Amari coming to town, and you know,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: of the Bills obviously find a way to get that
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: wide receiver one brain and gets it done last week
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: with the trade with Cleveland. And then, like I said,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: I mean the first play that we see Ami drops
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: that ball on the third down, and then you know,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: I didn't get nervous, but I was just like, Okay, well,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: they're gonna take a little bit of time. Obviously Josh
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: doesn't have that much chemistry with them, hasn't thrown the
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: ball to him too much. And then the Bills has
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: proceeded to kind of sleepwalk a little bit in respects
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: to the offensive. We've seen some slow starts from them recently,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: especially this year as well. And Tennessee wasn't doing anything
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: spectacular obviously, dunking and Duncan getting the ball and tight
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: ends and stuff like that, and that first couple drives,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: but still bills down ten nothing before you can really
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: blink early in the second quarter, and I was looking
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: at it, like, why is it taking us so long
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: to get things together? And I remember yelling at the
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: TV and I'll do my tailgate report at or at
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: the end of the show. But it was just interesting
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: because the fact that, like, it seems like these slow
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: starts a partner them, a little bit of a thing,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: a little bit of something that I don't know. One
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: time it might be an accident, two times a trend,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, three times four times you're like,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: ook at, this might be this kind of team with you.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: It's a little weird, a little weird, Rob, I mean,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: the opposite of what a game should really start. When
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: you start the game, that's the script, right, Some plays
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: that shouldn't be able to be stopped. I mean, granted,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: last night watching the Minnesota game, they came out and
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: the first series for both teams was flawless, right right
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: down the field, touchdown drives what you've been working on,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: the freshest things you've been working on on practice, And
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: it seems like the Bills this year kind of have
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: done opposite of that. You talk winning the toss, taking
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: the ball, you know, maybe that was there kind of
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: the thing they were doing to change the vibe in that, like, hey,
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: we've had some slow starts. Let's get the ball and
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: take it down and score. And then they go three
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: and out three straight times. So frustrating to see in
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: a game where it was such a beautiful day and
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: a beautiful vibe and getting ready to go in and
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: very confident to go in and beat the breaks off
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: these Titans, and then you go in and it's like, damn,
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: we're going to be in for a long one. Obviously
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: that change as we went, but the slow start is concerning.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, you play, you look at the teams we
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: lost to. You know, you get down decent, you get
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: down fourteen to the to the Texans, you got down
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: big to the to the Ravens, and good teams on
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: our schedule coming up. If you get down even in
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Seattle this week. You have a slow start and they
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: get seventeen nothing on you. It's tough to come back
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: and win anyway in this league, especially down. So something
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: they got to work on, something they got to clean up.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: I don't like seeing it. I like coming out and
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: setting the tone early that Jacksonville vibe, and obviously I
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: want to win every game by forty right, but you
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: know what I mean, like the tempo, everything starts in
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: that first couple drives and it's kind of opposite of
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: what it should be where the script you should look
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: good and if you fall off later in the game,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: defense makes adjustments. It's a little harder for you. But
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: it's kind of been opposite for this Bill's team this year.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: And there's gonna be some teams coming up on their
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: schedule that they're not gonna be able to dig out
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: of these holes. So I'd like, you know, definitely something
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: we gotta see change and a little wake up. I
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: don't know, some smelling salts, whatever these boys gotta do to,
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: you know, to get clicking and get ready to go
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: to get that front end game script where somewhere where
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: we can get out in front and set the tone
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: of the game, not real from the back and get
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: make everybody nervous.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting you know that you said that because
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: you know, it seems like it's a theme where they
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: just do sleepwalking. And it's an interesting point with the
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: scripts because you're absolutely right, the scripts are supposed to
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: be when you're your cleanest, you know what I mean,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: And it just seems like the Bills haven't been able
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: to do that. And that was the one thing that
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: I worry about, you know, just going forward in the
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: future because of the fact that, again we talked about
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: how the AFC looks kittable, we talked about how we're
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: not really fearing too many teams. Obviously, you know, Baltimore
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: looks great. We lost to Houston, but there's still so
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: much season left that you can catch up. One of
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: the things that can mess up seating that cannot necessarily
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: the division looks like we're gonna run away with that.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: But one of the things that can mess up seating
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: is just dumb losses. And the way that you get
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: dumb losses is by spotting teams points and getting behind
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: the eight ball. So you're absolutely right, doesn't matter if
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: it's this week with Seattle. We'll talk about that late
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: in the show, But any of these other games, I
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: mean Indy coming up, and Miami's got two backs, they're
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: getting ready to get some juice and some energy back
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: in there. Off you just don't want to spot teams
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: that you should be taken care of any points and
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: give them any type of hope. What did I talk
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: about last week was the same thing I talked about
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: with the Jacksonville game, was get on that team early,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: find a way to get them disinterested, and then hopefully
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: by halftime you can run away with it. Now, the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Bills kind of flipped the script DT, because by halftime,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: you know, when they come out of halftime, it's a
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: different game. They find a way to get a touchdown
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: James cook up that right side eleven yards for the
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: touchdown to close the half, and then really, DT, it
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: was just the Bills show the rest of the way.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, thirty four straight points. They really didn't have
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: much resistance when it comes to the Tennessee defense, and
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: that's a good defense that they were playing on Sunday. Statistically, DT,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: they made it look easy. Man. It was just I
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: don't know, it was just like the Undertaker videos that
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: you always talk about. They just woke up Josh, woke
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: up Ghost for over three hundred yards of that game,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: and it was a situation where they scored every procesession.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Second half. They made it look they made it look
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: relatively easy. To be honest, the slow start.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: We're kind of obsessed with that stuff that we saw
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: no success in here in the season. The east and
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: West I call it, right, not north and south. These
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: screen these bubble screens out the predictable runs on first
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: and seconding down, you know, the stuff that it's like,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on, Joe Brady, if it's
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: an execution, I don't know what this deal is where
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: these gimmicks they're trying to run. Early in the season,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: that was the first half, that's what they were doing.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: You know, it was a lot of east and west,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: a lot of left and right. Then once they got
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: in the gun kind of opened it up, started putting
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: things downfield. They were able to carve them up and
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: move the ball. It will scoring on what was it
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: five straight? You say that five straight every possession, so
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: coming in it's like, I just don't get it. Rob,
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: you know, the with this this kind of gimmicky East
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: and West stuff is not working. We haven't seen it work,
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: you know, And then it comes, and then it comes
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: and they get away from it, and then they move
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: the ball easily and get downfield and score the points
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: they need, and before you know it, it's it's thirty
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: four to ten and you know, a complete blowout on
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: our hands. So I don't know. I I'm not concerned yet. Obviously,
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: if we see it in a a close game down
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: the stretch and we're trying these things, you know, Curtis
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Samuel again behind the line of scrimmage and these predictable
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: runs on first and second down with no really zone
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: or no pulling guard, nothing, just straight up predictable stuff
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: in East and West.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: That's and then we flip it and we move the
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: ball and carve them up. So I don't know what's
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: going on if we're trying to save our bag a
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: little bit, if we're you know, not pull out all
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: our tricks. But you got Detroit in this league, that's
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: that's six and one, and they're pulling out everything plays
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: the game, and you know, when there's someone to win
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: and we're five and two, I'm not you know, disheartening
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: that by any means, we got it done. The objective
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: was to be five and two, if it was one
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: point or by twenty four points. Sure, but this gimmicky
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: East and West stuff is, you know, is the demise
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: so far this season, and they just like seem like
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: they have to keep going back to it for some reason,
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: and I don't know, it's kind of frustrating.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Well when one of the things that you talked about
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: and there that's really been frustrating. And again, I don't
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: want to make it seem like a negative and DT altist,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: So he's DT's the ultimate optimus. You already know that
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: I'm ready to bitch about something, and it's always you
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: normally said that he's gonna be McDermott for me, or
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be the offense, because I'm obsessed with offense.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: I just one of the things that I came away
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: from that game wondering, and I was happy that we won,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: just like you were. Thirty four to ten. You can't
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: be mad about a lot. But I'm like, does Brady
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: like does he get it? Like does he understand you know,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: like offenses And this is really something that that has
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: gone back to the off season. We said we're gonna
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: be looking at him, gonna be watching him. Obviously everybody
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: eats kind of you know, threw that off a little
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: bit and kind of distracted us. But like this stuff
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: like where he loves to run the ball to the
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: point where I'm wondering, like, does he think that there's
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: some type of edict. I think I even text message
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: you during the game and message you like, you know,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: like gotta have that. Like it's like it's like Brady's
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: under some type of edict to run the ball on
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: first down. And I just I don't get it. I
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: know that, you know, they're they're they're okay, like they're
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: middle of the road run team. They're not like they're
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: not Baltimore or something like that where they've got to
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: give it to Derrick Henry, you've got to give it
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: up to James Cook. But like he is dedicated to
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: run the ball. And something that I thought about earlier
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: in the year was that, you know, they were talking
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: on WGR like, well, maybe he's doing this to set
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: up something for it down the road where he's showing
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: all these tendencies, showing all these tendencies, pushing these tendencies
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: down the DC's throats where they're planning for something that
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: he's going to switch it up come December. Switch it
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: up becomes Anuary, and I'm like, exactly when I make
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: that safe face, like well that it better be because
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, a tiger is it's tough to
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: change its stripes. And I'm just I don't know, man,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: this guy loves to run the ball. We are just
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: okay at it, and I just I don't know, man,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: I just we're Josh Is throwing it.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Is it a pride thing? Is it? Like we I'm
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: gonna just keep trying it so when it does work,
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: I can see I told you. I told you it
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: would work. We just had to be in the right
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: setting for it to work, like you know, And it's.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: It's that's so dangerous though. In the NFL are a run.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: The ball screens are a run, right, like you know,
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: when you're well at least what we're doing with them,
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: you know, with one to two yards max and handle,
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: it's all we're getting out of them. You know, it
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: is what it is. But then you go back a
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: couple of weeks to the Monday night Jets game, and
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: you know, our line is blowing holes open, and we
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: got a rookie running back running through semi truck holes,
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: and that's kind of controlling the game. So like there's
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: spurts of this being dominating in a force, but then
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: it feels like we always have to go back to
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: it just to like prove that we can do it,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: and then when it's not there, it's like, okay, just kidding,
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: let's get down the field and make things happen. But
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not surprised we come out and do
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: the same thing Sunday. We've seen it every week, you know,
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: for the first seven weeks. We've seen it. So I
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: don't know, I'm I'm not again, I'm not trying to
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: be negative. And you know, it's a twenty four point
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: win at home or five and two well ahead in
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: the division. But I mean, come on, we let's it's
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: it's not working, Rob.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: No, it's it's not I mean, and I mean not
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: to the to the level of efficiency. Like I said that,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: they're so dedicated and it seems like Brady is very,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: very dedicated to this. So we're gonna see now as
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: we shift focus. You know, DT we talked about the
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: second half looked great, Amari Cooper. I love just watching
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: that replay because he literally had no you know, no
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: damn clue what he was doing on that play, looks
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: at at Josh, Josh checks and Ken's the play and
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, it was like, you know,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: he's literally looking at Keon Colevid like what what do
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: I do? And that key On just kind of points
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: for him and lets him know, like just kind of
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: run a little post to one of the case may be,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: and it was a skinny post, and like, I just
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: I just loved watching that play DT because of the
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: fact that the pre snap it was just apparent that
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: this is a guy you just traded for. He's got
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: no idea what's going on, And I just I just
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: love the fact that, you know, like I said, he
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: was you know, he he is. He's such a professional,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: he's such a route runner, and he's such a wily
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: vet so to speak, that he just he kind of
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: just picked it up on the fly. And I thought
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: that it was really interesting when I when I saw
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: the playback and saw that pre pre snap motion, just
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: the fact that, like I said, this guy, you know,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: he just got here this week, had no idea what
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: was going on. Keon Covid just kind of points and
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, first first reception for MAP
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: goes for a touchdown. I thought that it was really
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: sweet to watch that and and kind of let it
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: go there. It was beautiful.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: The first I talked about it last week, the first
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: coop you know, through the stadium U was was exactly
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: what you thought it'd be, and it was loud and
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: proud and dropped the dropped the third down and it
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: was like, oh no, the leading the NFL and drops
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: like is this is this a bad trade? And you
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: know came in. But the touchdown was great. Whatever whatever
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: it was with Kean Coleman telling him to play or
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: you know whatever that whatever, that was wast like, I
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: don't know what, I don't know what. It felt different
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: right Rob. It felt different with eighteen out there like
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: he had It's not just like him dominating he had
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: sixty six yards okay, cool, but the fact of like
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: where he was, like it just seemed like he knew
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: how to sit in spots, he knew how to feel
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: the contact of the corners and knew what to like
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: he's experienced and it's just like the maturity of you
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: know what we were kind of missing this year with
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: our receiving corps. You saw that he was in the
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: right spots. He just had a feel to be out
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: there and it and it's nice to see that with
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: a feel three days into this system, you know, couple
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: of days catching balls from Josh Allen and he's and
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: it just has the intangibles and then natural feeling to
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: be out there and be open. Uh So we said
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: it last week and I'm harping on it again, the
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: pressure valve is released on this offense. Now every you know,
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: systems and and looks and game plans have to go
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: to Amari Cooper now, and that's just going to open
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: up everybody else. And we literally saw that in real
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: time last week, as you know, as Keon Coleman had
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: open multiple times and took advantage. Kin Kaid finally got
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: a few nice catches downfield. There was one series where
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: they were like, all right, I'm sick of Cooper catching
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: the ball. I'm sick of ke On Colan catching the ball.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Khalil had six catches on one year in the fourth quarter,
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: you know, So that it's the method to the madness
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: is happening in real time right before our eyes. It's
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: not rocket science. It's you bring somebody in that's good,
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: that's going to take attention to the defense, and then
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: all your other players will have less attention on them
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: and have more chance to sign. So it seems like
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: he's a very come, come, do your job type of guy.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: But he knows how to play in this league and
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: has the intangibles and it showed great Sunday and everybody
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: else benefitted from it.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's why that was you know, one of
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: the things that made me so crazy about everybody eats
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: was just that just never made any sense to me.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: You bring in Coleman, excuse me, You bring in Cooper
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: and it immediately, like you said, that pressure valve release,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: it just lets it slots everybody where they're supposed to be.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: There shouldn't be an immense amount of pressure on Keon
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Coleman first year. There shouldn't be you know where you
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: know Khalishakir goes out for one game and the offense
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: just literally just dies. It shouldn't be like that, you know,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: or you're throwing deep balls to mac Hollins. All those
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: types of things are unnecessary. Bringing the number one, replace
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: digs and find a way to let this offense start
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: to hum again. And I think that that's what you
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: started to see on Sunday for sure. You're absolutely right.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: It was immediate dividends, immediate kickback on that because of
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: the fact that, like you said, he found a way
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: to get other people involved, and he wasn't even you know,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: on the field that they said, like Keon Coleman, most
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: of his damage, he wasn't even actually literally on the
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: field at the same time. So it's not necessarily about that.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: It's about the attention that he brings, the attention and
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: the actual coverages that they have to slow his way.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: I thought that it was a masterful game plan when
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: it comes to Brady, like I said, he's like you know,
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: doctor Jekylbista Hyde. Sometimes I love him, sometimes I don't.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: But when it comes to the passing game, I thought
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: that he had a good scheme. And definitely Khalusha Keir
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: got off. I was so happy to see Kinkate. You're
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: absolutely right. Those up the scene on the sidelines, far
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: up the field, fifteen yards down the field. We haven't
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: seen that all year from Kinkaid. I can't think that
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: it's just a coincidence. I can't think that it's just
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: because all of a sudden they wanted to try to
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: call those plays. It's got to have something to do
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: with Cooper being on the field a great route runner,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: like I said before, and I think that he helped
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: open up everything for everybody else. So I'm really excited
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: to see what he could do now. You know, it's
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: interesting because when you look at the stats and different
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: things like that, you know, Keon Coleman goes off. They
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: robbed him of that one touchdown DT, which was definitely
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: a touchdown. Just everything about his scouting report was on
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: display on that one catch in respects to back shoulder.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: They talked about how he's got great body control, great
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: footwork when he's trying to keep himself in bounds, which
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: he did on that play, and just I just like
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: see it. I just like seeing the slow progression for him.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I just never wanted him to have too much pressure
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: on him. He looked great, He looked fantastic DT on Sunday,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: and I like seeing the young involved man. He's funny
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: as hell. We all knew that he was definitely personal
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: from his first interview, but he's a he's a football player,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: he's a wide receiver.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: He's a physical specimen. Rob, he's a physical specimen the
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: way that basketball background right, the way he kind of
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: boxes out and gets his on the side. You thought
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: it was a touchdown though.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I thought he had. I thought he had
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: three feet so I thought.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: I think the feet were in. I think he was
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: bobbling it, that's what.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they did try to say that.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but because that was that was in our in
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: our end zone. Finally, I mean, the entire game is
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: kind of on the other side until the fourth quarter,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: and we got a little action at the end, so
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: so it was good. But that was in the in
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: the end zone. And and then replay up on the
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: jumbo tron. Yeah, everyone was like two feet in. That's
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: a tuddy. And I didn't know about the bobble until
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: I got home and he was like, oh, I think
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: he bobbled it. That's what it was. But hey whatever,
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: He'll he'll have plenty more of those in his career, right.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: But the physical special mint of just kind of boxing
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: out and getting loose, Rob he you know, he's got
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: a little Stefan Diggs in them. Right when he when
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: he has the when he like I'm talking about the
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: aggressiveness and the dog you know, when he gets going,
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: you can see he's like he's getting pumped up, Like
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: he gets going, he's getting pumped up, ready to go.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: And that gets me fired up because if we can
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: get something where you know, he's consistently growing, and I
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: mean we're in week seven of his rookie season. You know,
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: hopefully we see years and years and years of this
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: of this growth and and but it just takes a
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: few and his confidence is there and he's he's pumped
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: up and he's ready to go, and he's the I
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: like his little first down you know, it's first down Selly.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: It's similar to JJ, justin Jefferson. So the I think
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: he's got that dog in intensity in him, but it's
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: gonna take him producing to take it to make it
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: come out. And you know, it was good to see that,
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: you know, Sunday and like have that open field in
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: front of him, and you know he knows, like, uh,
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: I'm sure he got a lot of shit this week
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: on that one of not getting into the end zone
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: and getting caught from behind by the and I don't
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: know if you saw the Josh miked up this week,
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: do you see any.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: No, no, no no. I saw a couple with Jeffers Simmons,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: but that was about it.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Josh was miked up. And and on that throw, he
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: Josh just starts sprinting down the middle of the field
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: and then Keiha gets tackled and Josh helps him up.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: He's like, I almost caught you when I started from
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: where I throw it. They were laughing, so I I
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: it's a fun thing. You know, he's a fun personality.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: But I think he's got that like I'm sensing if
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: he starts to eat, he's going to turn into a
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: dog real quick. And you know, and and that's a
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: spot we needed to fill with with one four out
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: of here. And I hope zero keeps bringing that every
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: year and I hope seventeen realizes that too and keeps
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: feeding them, you know, to feed that intensity and feed
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: that team so that you know, the intensity kind of
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: runs through him as well.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, I mean, you know he is you know,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: don't let the jokes fool you. Don't let all that
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: type of stuff that you guys see on social media
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: for you. This guy, this guy's a ball. That's what
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: I meant by that. He he loves ball, He loves
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: play football, and I think that that absolutely right. DT.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: If the more balls he gets, the more touchdowns, the
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: more yards, he's just gonna build that confidence and all
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: that type of stuff. All it does is just increase
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: you know, your your options and your weapons. You've got
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: Shakiir now, now you've got him playing better again, gaining
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: his confidence. We already talked about Cooper, you know, and
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: then Kincaid. You know, you could sprinkle the Knox when
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: you want to, that type of thing. So it'll be
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: interesting to see now when it comes to that run
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: game that we talked about before we transitioned Ray Davis,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: you know, eight yards of clip DT. I mean, I
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: know that they love James Cook, and I know you
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: love him as well, and he's dynamic, you know, there's
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: no doubt about it. But Ray Davis is starting to
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: carve out. He is solidly becoming the bills number two
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: running back. And I don't think that there's really much
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: debate about that. Todd Johnson seems to have a role.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Josh likes him. He throws the ball to him when
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: he gets over all that kind of thing. Yeah, but
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: I like, I like Ray Davis and you know that
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: I like him. I like I just like his attitude.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: I like the way that he runs the ball, and
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: it just seems like he's gonna get He's just gonna
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: gonna force himself some more opportunities based Joe Brad's not
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: gonna have any way to keep him off the field
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: that he keeps playing.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: He's a better Zach Moss, way better Zach Moss. Similar
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: similar deal that one two punch. I mean, Jimmy Cook
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: is a is not a Devin Singletary, but you know,
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: more elusive and better. And Ray Davis is is similar
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: to Zach Moss and it's just a lot better. So
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: I agree, I agree, you know, I can't wait to
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: keep him getting confidence as well. And Ty Johnson is
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: you know, is respectable when he can get in there too,
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: and especially in the passing game. So all three running
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: backs score on the box score for your team on
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: a team that you're you know, are we running too much?
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know, YadA, YadA, YadA, all three running backs
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: score will win by twenty four. I guess you gotta
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: take yeah.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: No, I will take it. On the defensive side of
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: the ball before we transition over to to Seattle. You know,
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: Groot comes up with six quarterback pressures, touching the quarterback
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: all day. It was something where, you know, I haven't
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: seen a guy play like that, and he gets rewarded
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: with at least a half sack. But you know, everybody's
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: wondering about, you know, the sacks and stuff like that,
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: since he started the year on fire with that three
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: sack performance. I heard him address it this week and
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: he said, you know he I liked his response. He
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: talked about, how, you know, listen, you're not gonna get
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: a sack every time, and that doesn't mean that I'm
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: not doing my job. I'm supposed to be, you know,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: creating pressures. I'm supposed to be winning my one on
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: one matchups, and sacks are just a byproduct of that
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: if everything goes right. He's like, but quarterbacks can win
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: games without throwing four touchdown passes and still play well.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: And I like that response for him because he knows
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: that he's playing well long as he's not losing confidence,
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: as long as he's not wrapped up in just the stats.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: I know that he doesn't have all the sacks yet
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: this year. But I love the fact that he was
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: rewarded with at least a half sack along with him
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: in Smoot grout is he he's a force. He's he's
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: playing for a contract. You don't expect anything else less
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: from a guy who wants to go ahead and get paid,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: and he's playing like it. DT he is. He's a
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: force out there. I saw him. I noticed him on
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: my screen. And even though I had a whole bunch
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: of chaos going on, like I'll talk about it by
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Bigical City Crew report, the Tailgate report, I noticed him
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: on the screen when the bills were on d I
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: really did.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: The times when we talk about when we're negative on
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: this defense is you know, is a little bit, oh,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: we got a lot of injuries in the back of
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: this defense. Whatever. But when we really dig in and
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: talk about and we're negative on this defense, it's when
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: we're not getting pressure right. And how we've struggled to
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: get pressure for years in this organization. And you know,
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: the last time we really got pressure was you know,
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: the the cold front back in the in the in
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: the drought. So so it's this year, I think it's
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: been consistent. It hasn't been dominant, but it's been consistent,
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: and you know, and obviously we're sou and Epaneza, we're
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: a are big in that. When Ron Miller comes back,
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: I hope he's big in that. The middle of this
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: interior line. You know, Dawan Jones is playing a lot
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: better in these past couple of games. You see a
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: little Dwaine Carter smooth at Oliver is going to be back.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: So I think it starts with the pressure up front,
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: and when we're negative on this defense, it really is
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: about the pressure. And this year we haven't really been
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: able to touch on that, you know, So I hope
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: that keeps up. I hope we're so you know, we're so.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: I think they drafted him to be dominant because he's
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: a physical specimen and a physical force. Let's pay the man,
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: get him going and be the next, uh, you know,
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: the next franchise defensive end in this organization. So I
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: I echo everything you say. It's good to see it.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: I think, you know, we don't talk about it as much,
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: but the most critical we are in this defense is
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: when we aren't getting pressure. And it seemed to be
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: getting pressure. But what a stereotypical you know, Bill's defensive game, right,
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: it starts up and you want to say, you want
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: to say you're getting cooked, right, you want to feel
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: it feels like you're getting chopped up down the field.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: It feels like it, but you really aren't, you know,
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: you're really like they would think, couple there, maybe a
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: field goal. It just feels worse than it always is.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: And then those adjustments kind of tighten up in that
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: second half. With Sean McDermott playing an inferior team, they
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: tighten that ship up and they and they dominate. And
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: that's just the m of Sean McDermott and these biose
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: defense ben don't break, kind of see what's coming to
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: you and then crank it down and dominate in the
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: second half.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it would be interesting to see, you know, Like
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: I said, I I I, it just seems like I
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: can't you know, I can't take you anything away from
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Dermott and Babbage in respects of the defense. They find
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: a way. They just find a way to get it done.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: They close the vice gripts. Even in the game where
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: we played the Shitty as Baltimore, we were starting the
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: games some pudding. We had stopped them a couple times
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: before that trick play, so you know, obviously you probably
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: wouldn't won the game. We already talked about that a
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: couple weeks ago. We don't need to rehash, but it
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: just seems like it's just a very very rare occasion
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: where we just seem like we're outclassed in respects to
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: the offense against McDermott d it just seems like, well,
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: except when the playoffs start. But that's a conversation for
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: another story for another day now. As we transition tonight,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: over four hundred and fifty people watching DT, thank you
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: Bills Mafia, thank you Nicol City crew. We really appreciate
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: you guys on a tgif we are officially going to
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: be switching to Fridays, I coach Mike King's the basketball
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: team on Thursday nights. You all know that I've got
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: the new princess in town, so it's just gonna work out.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: DT says that it works out better for him as well,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: So we're gonna switch to Friday nights. I got DT
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: started the show talk about he likes this Friday vibe.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: I like it as well. I like just I like
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: processing throughout the week, you know, listening because it does
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: give me a chance DT to kind of calm down,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: kind of relax a little bit, because I'm usually normally
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: I'm running pretty hot after the games. So it does
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: give me a chance to kind of gain a little
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: perspective before I start spouting off, because normally after games,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: i'm pretty I'm either mad or I'm happy about something.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: But then I still can bitch about something.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: And if you're still if you're still hot about something
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: on Friday, then you know what's word to be hot about. Right.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: Yes, it's good for us. Yes, I like it a lot.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: Tonight's show is presented by twenty six Shirts here on
• 27:34

• 28:10
  Speaker 1: dot com. Your money will not be wasted now DT
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: as we transition. The reason that I named the episode
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: of the way that I did because you know, I
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: look at, you know, the schedule, and you know, I
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: kind of set a tongue in cheek after the Baltimore game,
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: you know, because I was pissed one of the cases
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: me and I was mad, and I was you know,
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: I'm on Twitter and I'm arguing with my boys in
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: the Twitter space and I'm like, Bill should go eight
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: and two? What's I mean, no problem? They should go
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: eight and too, you know, And I'm hot, and I'm like, long,
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: does they trade for wide receiver? I don't see. They
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: probably be like, oh, shut up, crip and this and
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: that and this, you know, and I'm like, what I'm
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: being serious, y'all think I'm being you know, condescending what
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: we trade for a receiver being? And then go ahead
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: and go eight and two? And it's funny because Bean
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: did his part, trades for a wide receiver, finds a
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: way to get it done. And then I look at
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: the schedule and I'm like, okay, Tennessee. You know the
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Jets were, you know, coming out, and you know, I'm like, okay,
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: well we just lost to the Texas. We got the Jets, Titans,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: you know, Seattle, and then we got the Dolphins and
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: then you know, the Coats, all before we have to
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: even worry about Kansas City and DT, We're almost halfway home.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: Like it's a situation where Seattle's gonna be a tough
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: road trip. I really am circling this game because going
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: out west, we had just played three games on the road.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: You come back home for that quick reprieve at the
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: Ralph last week, and then you're back on the plane
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: and you're flying out west to Seattle. They said it's
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: gonna rain. It's gonna be typical Seattle weather. This is
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: kind of like a big game, you know. I know
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: it's a NFC opponent, but this is kind of another
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: I just what did I tell you a couple of
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: weeks ago? DT. I love games where I get a
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: chance to find out who my team is. I love
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: those type of opportunities where I can see the metal
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: of the team as we're approaching the halfway point of
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: the year. DT. This is this is like the perfect
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: matchup as a litmus test to see this offense can
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: pass the ball, they can throw it. What do we
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: pride ourselves on stopping the pass? What do we pride
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: ourselves on on getting to the quarterback? What we can
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: what are we weak at stopping the run? What are
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: they good at? They're good at, you know, running the
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: ball with Kenneth Walker. Man, this looks like a matchup
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: where you got to really have your shoes, you know.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: They gotta have fast and tight you know, because this
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: this could be a team that could beat you for
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: sure if you're off your game or your lacks of
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: days ago, your lethargic. What are the case would be
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: They've got a great home field advantage with Luomenfield. You
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: you better come and bring it, like literally from kickoff.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: This is not a team that you want to just
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: mess around with on Sunday.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: Why Why haven't we played them in Seattle in so long?
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: In twenty years? Sela Capaccia said that there was a
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: schedule quirk where they started to pair the NFC West
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: teams where they would actually like pair them together when
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: they would come east, or pair them together when we
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: would go out west. So so Seattle got caught in
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: that with I think it was Arizona and that's why
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: we skipped eight years ago or whatever it was.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, because it's usually every every eight years eight
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: years yeah, right, And so the last game there was
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: the Monday night game and uh, the debacle for halftime
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: with the field Sherman's times, Yeah, Sherman, Okay, Seattle gonna
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: be Patrick Cameron heard on five point fifty today whether
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: or not bad misty, but you know that it's it's
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: always kind of rainy and gloomy up in the Pacific
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: north northwest, right for sure. A loud stadium kind of
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: the Bills of the West, if you will, when it
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: comes to crowd noise, and and that stadium being built
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: for crowd noise, and the new Bill Stadium is kind
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: of modeling something after that to you know, make the
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: best home field advantage in the league. So a lot
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: of factors coming in against you said it, the top
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: passer in the league and Gino Smith, and I mean,
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't have never thought that was gonna be on
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: my Bengo card in my life.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: NFL.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: But they're talented, you know, they're talented kind of in
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: all directions. They made a few trades. They got just
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: Biers Johnson, who who you know, made a few plays
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: against the Bills last week, and they're gonna be going
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: up this week and he's gonna give them some nice
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: insight on on what this offense does and some quirks
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: to it. So it is, it's a tough road trip
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: in in. You know, I'm not gonna say as I
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: believe it, but you know, this is a typical trap game,
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: right A team that's decent. They're not mediocre. I'd say
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: they're decent, you know, I don't. I don't think they're contenders,
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: but they are decent. They they they hit hard, and
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: they can they can air the ball out.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: Going across going across the country, and I'm not too
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: deep into going across the country, like because these dudes
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: are on a private charter jet. Yes, there's the time difference,
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: but you know it's not like it's it's going across
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: seas and you're you're you're losing sleep. It's it's a
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: couple hours and this is basically just like a night
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: game for us, right, so a seven pm start on
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: the East Coast, it would be technically, you know, so
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: it is what it is. But you know, the fact
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: of winning the games you need to win. There's some
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: there's some games we talk about later in the schedule
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: with the forty nine Ers, the Chiefs, the Lions, you know,
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: some some big time games coming up that this is
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: kind of like, yeah, they're good and they're a little
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: above mediocre and you can't take them lightly. But it's
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: kind of like the Titans last week. The records a
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: little different, but you got to go in there and
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: expect to win. And obviously the Bills being on the
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: road as a as a favorite, you know, shows that
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: that's the expectation. But you know, it's it's gonna be
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: a tough one. It's gonna be a tough one that
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: you know, all those aspects of of going in and
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: the the guys were even talking about that when they
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: kind of got punched in the mouth against the Ravens
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: and against against Houston of you know, kind of a
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: hostile environment and and that and they struggled to kind
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: of get it going because the communication was off early
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: in the game. And Connor mcgovernn was talking about it
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: this week on gr about it, how the it was
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: hostile and they weren't ready. So hopefully that was lessons
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: learned and they go win and you know, don't have
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: a slow start like they're prone to do against the
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: hostile environment because I I don't I don't think a
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: lot of Bill's Mafia is going out to this game
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: this year, you know, as they're as their away game
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: when there were so many away games.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: Close by right to go to.
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: I don't think Seattle is the top of the list
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: for people.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: But it's a true road environment.
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be a true road It's gonna be tough
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: against a team that is has been good. You know
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: for the last ten twelve years, the Seattle Seahawks have
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: been decent. So I'm ready for it. But four o'clock
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: we got to kind of get into that zone as
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: we go in into this week. But uh, you gotta
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: expect to win.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: I think that you're you're I think you're a little
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: bit down on Seattle more than I more. But I
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: think that that's our tendencies as as a dynamic you
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: and I to begin with, I think I'm always waiting
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: for to get smacked in the face, while you're always
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: you know, expected to, Oh, let's go, let's go get this,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I think that that's
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: that matches us. You know, I'm I'm not nervous per se.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: I think that, like I said, a true road game
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: will be a good test. I definitely think that's true.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: And you're absolutely right about your your talk about the
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: Bills mafia, and I don't think we're getting out there
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: in droves or anything like that. It's not Nashville or
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: anything or Cleveland like you know, to be far away
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: and that's a trip. But the bigger thing is that
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: their weapons. I you know, I respect their weapons. I
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: think that Geno, You're absolutely right, you resurrects his career
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: a backup after you know, the Jets kick him to
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: the curb, and then you know what a story, you
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like he should have been Comeback
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: Player of the Year already at least one of these years.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: I know Damor won it or was supposed to win,
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: and Flacke stole it from him, But you know, g
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: you know what a story like, what a story that is.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: You know, first round pick, you know comes you know
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: from West Virginia, chucking the ball all over the field
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: and then flames out with the Jets, and then all
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, you think his career is over, you
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: think he's going to be just a career backup, and
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden he just resurrects himself where last
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: you know, a couple of last couple of years, he's
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: been you know, he's been slinging that rock. So I
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: respect Dk Metcalf. I know that him and Smith have
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: been going through their ups and downs and getting their chemistry.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: I've been watching some of their little spats and things
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: like that. But you know, Jackson Smith and Jigua his
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: second year, he looks promising. They still have Baldwin, Like
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: I just what I what I don't want to do?
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Strong running Kenny Walker Like Kenneth Walker will run you over,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: He'll catch the ball. He's got great back, great hands
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: for it for a running back. So it's a situation
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: where I just that's all I want. And we'll talk
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: about the injury is here in a minute. But I
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: just want everybody to have their their t's crossed and
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: their eyes dotted because this is a game that you
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: should win. I agree with you on that. I could
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: definitely see it going either way, just because of the circumstances.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: Now some of those circumstances DT, as we transition. It's
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: just it's the theme. It seems like if this season injuries,
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: and I know it's the NFL, but it seems like
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: the injury bug just bites us a little bit harder. Today,
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: Sean McDermott on WGR announces that Terrel Bernard will be out.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: He announces that who's the other guy besides Dwayne. Dwayne
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: Carter is on IR or with a wrist surgery that
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: he needs. And then there's one more guy, DT, who
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: was it? Oh Man, one more guy, there's one more
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: There's three of them that are out this week. Help
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: us out, Nicol City crew. Oh man, it was three.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: I know those three guys this week that are out. Gosh,
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: it'll come to me. But anyways, I know that Terre
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: Bernard's definitely out, Dwayne Carter is to IR with a
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: wrist injury, and I gotta find that other one is
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: It's gonna bother me, but DT, it just seems like
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: this is the theme this year in respects to the Bills.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: The injuries are biting us, the biting us hard, and
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like there's any there's any reprieve. I mean,
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: last week it was this fluke, you know, ro Bernard
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: gets stepped on, and it's just it's horrible. Well, one
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: of the case may be, so I don't know what
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: you think about it, but I just know that I'm
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: sick of all these injuries. I'm sick of them affecting
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: the team this way. But but they're Tommy Germotard ruled
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: them out, so they're standard.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: Is the standard.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: That's what the other guy was Curtis saving. Not like
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: we really do much with him anyway.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: But that might be better. But the you know glass
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: half fall with Treu Bernard, Uh, it wasn't the same
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: injury he had, right, So it's not like he reaggravated
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: and made something worse. It's an ankle and ankle that
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: everybody in the NFL has sprained their ankle multiple times, right,
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: So it's something they they're gonna work through. But hey,
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: Khalil Shakira, it took him a week, you know, to
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: get back from that. We did see forty three, go
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: out last week, go to the locker room. That was
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: kind of right in front of us when he did.
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: But then he came running back out with training didn't
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: go back into the game, but came running back out
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: with trainers, and then missed the first two days this
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: week of practice but for personal reasons. So it was like, Okay,
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: I think he's all right. And then the day obviously,
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: you know, came with a out. But when Trel Bernard
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: was out, there's a hole, net, there's a hole there.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: When he came back, he made two play making plays
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: against Houston. He's making fumble recoveries, picks, tackles, he makes
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: game changing plays every game he's in. So that's that's
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: a huge loss, a crucial loss. Dwayne Carter stinks because
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: he was kind of on the rise. You know, we
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: were starting to see a little more out of him.
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: He had that big four down stop last week. But yeah,
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: as as you move, as you go at Oliver's back though,
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: then right at Oliver's back, So hopefully that fills that
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: Dwayne Carter hole and then Trel Bernard. I mean again,
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: it's we're gonna we're gonna feel that we're gonna feel
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: that in the middle. He's a playmaker. So it sucks.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: Next man up standard is the standard, but it's you know,
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: this team is not as deep as we kind of
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: thought it was, you know, in the in the offseason
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: and going into this where we were like, oh, we're
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: kind of deep everywhere, and there's a bunch of guys
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: that that could be good, and then we kind of realized, like,
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: the starters are the starters for a reason here, and
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: we need these dudes. So this is a team that's
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: a super Bowl contender when healthy. A lot of teams
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: can say that, right, but a super Bowl contender went healthy,
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: and unfortunately Treo Bernard is a big part of that.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: So uh, we hope it's it's not enough to bring
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: the l in this week, but an ankle I think
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: he's back for Dolphins and.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: Too sure, Yeah, next next man up, Well we'll test that.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: We'll test that theory once again in respects to him.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: And like I said, Dwayne Carter has been playing well rookie,
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: but but really stepped up in Ed Oliver's absence and
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: really was just he's just been consistent. I told you
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: in the draft time. You remember we went on the
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: k Gun Report. I liked him. I liked the way
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: that he uh, the way that he spoke. I like
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: the fact that he was from a football family that
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: you know, he was just he was all business and
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: the way that he talked the game, the way he
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: spoke the game. And then we've had a chance to
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: see that kind of big fruit on the field. He's well,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: he's well beyond his years and definitely a mature, mature
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: a football player. So we're gonna hope that we get
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: a speed of recovery for those guys for sure. Now

  Speaker 1: week I had all of the kids, I'm talking all
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: five here at the house watching the Bills game, and
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Baby Ivy she is just a trooper. I mean didn't
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: wake up. I mean she only woke up when I
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: was feeding her. She was completely completely cool. I mean,
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: one of the most chill babies you'll ever be around. DT.
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: I promise you you, even if you've never had kids before,
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: like you have it, you won't even be scared off
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: by Princess Ivy. She is such a good baby. And
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: yet she was just baptized. I told DT that was
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: her official Bills Mafia baptist. Or she was around her
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: or brothers or sister, and she got a chance to
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: watch us watch the Bills and Daddy and Nate yell
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: at the TV, and like I said, she took it
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: like a chance. She did not startle, she didn't wake
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: up when she was sleeping. She was just she's a
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: member mafia. She's like, I'm gonna take a nap, y'all
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: watch the game. And it was really it was a
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: really good time. So I really enjoyed it. The boys
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: enjoyed it as well as Flow, their little sister in Ivy,
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: so it was it was really really fun. On my end,
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: it was just more of a situation where I remember
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: when Bobby was a baby and I was holding him
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: for a game once and like I was gonna let
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: the TV the same way, and he jumped, you know,
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: from a nap. So I was worried and nervous. But
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: she she took it like a champ. She did not
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: she didn't even flinch. So she's got some she's got
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: steel ice water in her veins. DT. I love it,

  Speaker 1: thank you for being a listener. Thank you for everybody
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: who contributed to this week's giveaway. And again, we're doing
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: it every week. DC said, We're doing it every week.
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: So you don't have to go anywhere. Go ahead and
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: apply again this week and we'll see.
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: First first giveaway, first giveaway Winter Nicole, right, Nicole, Yes, yeah, yep,
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: the mail and Josh, we'll get yours out right away.
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. Yeah. Well, well Olivia will go ahead and DM you,
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: Josh and make sure that we get your address and
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: get you over. It's all local, so you should be
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: good to go on that when DT as always you are,
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: you're you're always just your glass half full, you know.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: And I'm always looking at the glass, and I'm always
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: looking at the glass like it is it quite half
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: like I don't know it might be. So you know, listen,
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: I think that the Bills can go on the road,
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: they can get this one. Absolutely. I think that there
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: this is an opponent that they they should beat. Theoretically.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: I just think that everybody's really got a button up
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: and make sure that we don't have lapses. I don't
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: like the slow starts to the offense. I think it's
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: going to be important on the road try to find
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: a way to get that crowd out of the game
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: a little bit by scoring early touchdown or getting on
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: the board, whether the case may be getting them on
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: a three and out. That type of thing I think
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: can aid in us being successful on Sunday. It's not
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: a team that you can look past. I don't think
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: that they will try to look past them. But I
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: don't think that you should spot this guy's ten fourteen
• 49:51
