• 2:33
  Speaker 1: You're out here.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: I can't call it, man, I'm really excited. It's something
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: about Patriots Weekend. It's funny because that's part of my
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: fandom DT is. You know, I remember when they had
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Jeff George and they were just you know, dog shit,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: they were garbage. And I'm growing up, you know, five, six, seven,
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: and eight for the Super Bowl run and New England
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: was never even a thought. We beat them and beat
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: their rest every every year. And the same thing with
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: the Colts back when they were still in the division.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, this dude from Michigan
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: gets mo Lewis puts that hit on Drew Bledsoe, and
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden, It's like, what is going on?
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: And I was a you know, I'm a Drop fan too,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: so obviously I came up through the Drop started my
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: season tickets in nine and I remember DT just driving
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: up for these games and like just a hoping and
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: a wishing and a praying and I'm frying turkeys in
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: the lot and you know, you and I became great friends.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: And during the tailgates and stuff like that in the
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: grass slots and like it was just crazy because I
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: didn't expect to win. I drive up six hundred and
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: fifty miles knowing I got to drive another six hundred
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: fifty back and I'm just hoping and wishing and praying,
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Can this be the day? Can this be the day?
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Could this be the Sunday that we actually take Tom
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Brady and Belichick down? It never seemed to happen. I
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: think they were like twenty three and four something crazy
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: ridiculous against us. And now the tables have turned DT
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: where we're the big dog on the block. We're the
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: actual the bully on the block and I love it.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: And now New England seems to have another quarterback and
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: we're getting ready to get into him a little bit.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: But how do you remember those games? Because for me
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: it was bittersweet. I would get amped and I would
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: get hyped up, and I would drive up from Charlotte
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: and I would be ready and the tailgate would be
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: lit and then get curb stomped as soon as you
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: walk in the route, and it just it wasn't fun
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: at all for that twenty year run in DT. I'm
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: so happy that the shoes on the other foot.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Now it's it's a good thing, right.
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: I mean, truthfully, my best memories about especially when it
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: comes to the Patriots in the drought, were not ever
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: going to a game. I mean the games I went to,
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: they got they got stomped out. You know, they got
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: they got crushed. So those weren't those weren't the best memories. Obviously,
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: the tailgate and everything was fun. But some of the
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: best memories were obviously some of the big the well,
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: the big wins, some of the only wins we had
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: during that time. The opener with the thirty three nothing
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: to Sam Adams bringing back another pick six and thirty
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: one nothing and getting the oxygen. And I remember being
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: in college at Oswego State and thought that, you know,
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: doing my journalism thing. And I had my own radio
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: show on Sundays called The Triangle Offense on the Swego
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: Radio WNYO eighty eight point nine tuned in up there
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: Central New York and Oswego, and I had my own
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: radio show, Triangle Offense. And it was the game when
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: Brady threw four picks, Drayton Florence picked six cover of
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: Sports Illustrated Fitzpatrick and that game was happening live during
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: my show slot.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: So one of the best memories I had.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: We called in Brent Johnson, one of my best friends,
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: well one of my best friend's brothers, who lives in
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: Buffalo still, and he was out, like at a bar
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: in Buffalo, and he called into the radio show and
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: basically it was just like giving me the scene, set
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: the scene for me, like you did, you know at
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: the tailgate a few weeks ago when I was setting
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: the scene and it was just like electric. It was
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: pandemonium and I was like, oh man, I can't I'm
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: so mad I'm not there and experienced this and it
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: was like our super Bowl. The Bills beating the Patriots
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: was truly a big deal. And I remember all those
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: wins extremely vividly because there was so few of them,
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: but I never actually went to a game and witnessed
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: them winning during the drift. I've seen them win obviously,
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: since I was at the perfect game, and you know,
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: in the playoffs and a few and a few before
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: and behind that, but the the true like atmosphere of
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: beating the Patriots was our super Bowl and that was
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: the time. And now we're coming in as eight point
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: favorites against these dudes at sitting at four and oh
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: so I I obviously will pick this over any of
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: those drought memories for sure, but it was it was incredible,
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: kind of just looking back knowing, like, man, I never
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: actually watched them win live. I remember going the the
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: Monday Night or was like the first night game I've
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: ever been to in the NFL.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: Okay, and and no, oh you talked about recently.
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, Derek Anderson Monday Nighter and the
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: first night game I've ever been to at the route.
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: It's all one o'clock, one o'clock, one o'clock in the night.
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: Game was such a big deal. And now we're bitching
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: and complaining because I'm, you know, not productive at work
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: because every goddamn games in that game.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: But the I.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: Remember going to the Monday Nighter and I was, I
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: just it was the first year I lived in Buffalo,
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: so I think it was like six years ago. Dere
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: Derek Anderson had to come in and I had my
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: season ticket card, but I had i ft up and
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: I brought the last year's card instead of this year's card.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: So the guy's scanning it and scanning it. He's like,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: it's not working.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: It's not working, man, And I'm like, well, it's working,
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: like it's my seat's like you know, and he's like no,
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: and then he turns around. He's like, oh, this is
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: last year's you know ticket card. I'm like, you gotta
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: be kidding me, man, And I'm like, I'm not missing
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: my first night game in this stadium. Like we got
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: to do something. He's like, well, you got to go
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: to will Call stand in line. I'm like And it
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: was probably the most elusive DT has ever been in
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: his life.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: There was a crowd in.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: There was a crowd of people walking walking by, and
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: you know, the mayhem of getting into the stadium, and
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: the guy kind of looked the other way, and I
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: just ducked behind him and got in, got into it,
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: you know, started weaving, weaving through the people.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Bouncing in and out.
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: I'm not a you know, easy to hide, that's for sure.
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: And I was bobbing and weaving and snuck into that.
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: I didn't really sneak in. I had the ticket. I
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: just brought the wrong rue right, so I knew my
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: seat would be available. It wasn't anything like that, but
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: I just had to evade security and get through that.
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: So I remember.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: Literally sneaking in behind the security guard and just being
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: bobbing and weaving through the crowd, running all the way
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: to my seat, looking over my shoulder and then still
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: paranoid that they were gonna come get me with my seat,
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: but they let me watch.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: They let me watch.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: I don't know what did we score, like nine points
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: a game or something. It was a brutal, brutal effort
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: and a tough one to see, but uh yeah some
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: uh the memories were the winds and there were a
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: few of them, and everything else was just kind of
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: blended together. And the Pats week, we'll we'll get up
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: for it and screw Tom Brady and walk out of
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: there with a loss.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, yeah, that's funny that you say it
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: like that, because that's exact my existence was. Driving up
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: and like I said, just hoping int a wish that
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: we would get that win and getting amped up one Sunday,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: going out there, getting out there nice and early at
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: the tailgate, and like but you always do in the
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: back of your mind, like man, this dude across the
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: way is just he's a bad MF. And like, I
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: don't know if we can get it done. And you
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: never had the team, you never had the horses that
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: Belichick had it. You know, whether it was on defense
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: or offense, you never had the same type of horses
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: that they did. So it's it's awesome this existence now
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: with the shoe on the other foot. Let's get into
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: it tonight, DT, a little bit about how the shoe
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: is on the other foot. The Bills quickly over the
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: New Orleans Saints thirty one nineteen last week at the Ralph,
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: a rare one o'clock game that DT is talking about
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: and referencing, you know, DT, for me quickly on it,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: because I do want to talk Pat tonight. I'm starting
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: to just understand and realize that, you know, the spreads
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: and stuff like that, that's for Vegas, and I understand
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: how that works. They want to get money on each side.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: They want, you know, the house always wins all that
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: type of stuff. That's why they build all those those
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: damn hotels and casinos out there. DT, it this just
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: doesn't seem like this type of team that's gonna be
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: pulling away from a lot of teams. I understand that
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: we can put up our thirty They've done. They did
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: it again thirty one points on Sunday. The defense with
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: the way that it is right now, until some of
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: those reinforcements come back with the Bash Brothers, We'll see
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: about Mad Max down the road. I don't really know
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: if we're going to be in a situation where our
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: defense can hold teams from keeping it relatively close. The
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: game wasn't really close. I never really thought we were
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: gonna lose or anything like that. But boy, when Brandon
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: Cooks caught that touchdown for a half second before we
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: saw the replay, my heart was fluttered a little bit, like, Man,
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: this is not this is not a good situation. I
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: don't want to be sweating it out against the Saints.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: And obviously the Bills pull it out. That completion didn't
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: count because it hit the ground. But DT, what did
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: I text you? I said, this is I don't know, man,
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: call me spoiled, but another game that it was just
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: a little bit too close for my liking. But I'm
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: starting to just kind of come to the grips with
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: the fact that until the defense either bows up get
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: some reinforcements back, this is kind of the life we're living, man.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: We're gonna have put a thirty and then hope the
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: defense can can make a couple stops down the road.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: Sure, hey, Capati already called you spoiled, as we talked
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: about last week, and kind of fought through that, and
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: you know, it's still okay. You know, it's still okay
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: to be critical and moving forward. A team that probably
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: might be the worst team in the NFL comes in
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: and kind of, you know, give give you their best
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: shot on Sunday, beautiful day in Orchard Park, beautiful day
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: at the stadium. I didn't get to the game, but
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: we'll get to the tailgate report obviously later. But it's
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: the NFL, and we have to also accept that this
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: is every team super Bowl when they come and play
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: one seven and the boys like, this is every teams
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: This is every team super Bowl as well.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Rob Like the Miami Dolphins came in.
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: The Miami Dolphins came in divisional opponent, you know, oh
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: and oh and two, don't go in three, and.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: They gave they were pumped up and gave us their
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: best shot.
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: The New Orleans Saints got their ass kicked in Seattle
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: the week before, and you know, young quarterback doesn't have
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: a win yet on his on his resume. There's some
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: talent on the roster, like we're coming in and giving
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: you our best shot, and we're gonna see that all year.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: And that's what the New England Patriots saw. That whole
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: realm of win twelve was their guy. Every team, we
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: just admitted to it in the intro of the show,
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: Rob it was our super Bowl trying to beat the Patriots.
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: And when we did, even though we were four and
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: twelve or whatever, it didn't matter because we beat the
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: Patriots that year. So it's every team super Bowl when
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: they line up. Were one to seven in the Boys,
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: and I'm not saying it's not a daunting task. Obviously
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: in that defensive room, it's probably not that comfortable to
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: sit down on Monday and say, all right, we got
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: one seven this week.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Fuck you know so.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: But we have to.
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: Also with we talk about growing as a fan base
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: and being able to be critical, but we also have
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: to be accepting of every team's gonna literally make this
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: their super Bowl when they play us. So credit to
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: the Saints for coming in and not laying an egg.
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: There was some back and forth, again very similar to
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: the Miami game, where there was opportunities for us to
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: blow the doors wide open. And and I'd like to
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: see that change and us to be able to really
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: put the beat on somebody here as soon to kind
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: of have that feeling. And you know, a couple couple misreads,
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: a couple of plays away and and on defense still
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: not getting off letting, letting Spencer Rattlers scramble and whatever.
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: But like everyone's talking about spy all week and all
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: this bullshit, Like I'm not worried if we're not putting
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: a spy on Spencer Ratler, Like that wasn't in the
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: game and he had a few runs up the middle,
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: and like everyone now is bitching all week, calling in a.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Gr saying we need a spy, we need a spy.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: It's like, no, Like the dude didn't kill us.
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: You know, he had a few decent runs and they
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: kept the ball moving, and credit to them defensively.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: They they got into us as well.
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: But you could kind of tell at the end of
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: the game it wasn't that we just flipped the switch
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: and turned it on, but it was our talent was
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: way better and we found we found ways, we shot
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: shit up and we got we got easy points at
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: the end of the game to kind of pull away.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: But we have to be okay, with every team thinking
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: it's the super Bowl when they come to playoffs and
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: and be prepared to do it.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, No, that's a that's a great point. I
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: don't I don't really often give that credence as much
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: as I probably should, but you're absolutely right. I mean,
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: we literally started the show that way. We are going
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: to get their best shot. So I really do like
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: that point because for New Orleans, a team like you said,
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: humiliated the last week. You know, in Seattle, they knew
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: what was on the docket for that day, and obviously,
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: you know, they had an opportunity to pull off an
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: upset didn't happen. Bill's were the better team. You're absolutely right,
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: So I like that point for sure. Now as we transition,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: Tonight's episode is presented by I eighty six Podcast Network
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Listen DT. I mean, we just keep stepping up in
• 14:32

  Speaker 2: to Tom and Bobby listen DT. Okay, you said everybody
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: gets their best shot and they put it up against
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: the Bills. We are not going to have many opportunities
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: to get a really really good test until probably the
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Kansas City game, to be honest. Now, maybe Atlanta will
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: see how they they fare in a couple weeks on
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Monday Night Football, but honestly, after that it's a bye week.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: We've got Carolina, which we're expecting some good things from
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: in that game and that expects to be a party.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: Then you've got Kansas City DT. Between now and Kansas City,
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: there's just not many opportunities for us to be tested.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: New England likes this kid, Drake May. I guess I
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: know he had a little slow start Week one, I
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: think it was against Vegas. After that, they like this kid.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: I guess I heard that he had three back to
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: back to back great games, or at least decent to
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: great games. They're excited about him. I hear all the
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: guys calling in on gr and stuff like that, all
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: the different commentators talking about it, and the quote unquote
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: you know Patriots insiders DT talk to me about it.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: They like this kid, and he's young. I don't know
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: if you call him Josh Allen diet or if you
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: call him you know, I don't think he's with you know,
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Will Levis wish out Josh Allen. But he's got some talent.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: He can move his legs. I mean, they like this kid.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: They like him at twenty three years old.
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: He probably was born and raised on taste of pizza
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: out there in Huntersville, North Carolina. God, that's where he's from.
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: That's where he's from, right, shout out to the stunts.
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: They fed him too well. He's he's thick. He definitely
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: has tendencies of one to seven and you know has
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: you know, he did goal Power five Conference went to
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: North Carolina, so it's not the same story of going
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: like small school and just seeing the raw talent and
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: building him into a superstar. You know, he went to
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: a big school. He was kind of highly towed for
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: front draft pick all all that type of stuff. But yeah,
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: he's he's proven himself last year. I think it's different
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: coaching now, But I think they did a good job
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: of kind of letting him, letting him play, you know,
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: letting him play in the fact of like, yes, he
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: was he didn't look good in a few times and
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: he got himself in a lot of trouble and but
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: they just kind of let him roll and then I
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: think that helped him a lot into this year, where
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: he looks way more comfortable.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: They invested a lot into this team.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: I think Mike Rabel is obviously a lot better coach,
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: and you know, they put the players around him. They
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: put the players around him to really, you know, make
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: to make plays and and make him look a lot better.
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: And he's showing a lot of comfortability. And I think, yes,
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: he is gonna be a problem here coming up. We
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: just have to you know, know that he's never gonna
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: be one seven and we'll always have the edge when
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: it comes to that. But but credit credit to the
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: Patriots organization and uh man, I erased that last five seconds.
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: I can't be I can't be ever saying that out
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: loud again.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, screw screw those guys. But he's ready
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: to go. He's talented.
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: I think again from last year, he made a lot
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: of mistakes as a young guy.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's immune to those by any means.
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: And what a better way to kind of get him
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: into some mistakes than eight thirty ruckus white out crowd
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: at the Ralph And I think that's gonna be a
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: big factor in this.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: It's not.
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: It's not Carolina coming off a thirty zero victory thinking
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: they're the shit and then they go in and come
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: back to reality.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: It's it's nothing like that. It's there.
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: You're gonna have to come in and actually beat the bills.
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: The Bills are gonna beat themselves at home in this situation.
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: So a lot on his plate in front of them.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: But credit to the kid for getting out there and
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: slaying it twenty three years old. I know Josh Allen
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: was twenty three at one point and we were like
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: Oh that's our quarterback twenty three.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: He's making plays. But it's just like, man, as I get.
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: Older now hearing twenty three years old, like and this
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: kid's gonna come in at eight thirty and make plays.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: It's like I gotta see it.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: To believe it.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: I gotta see it to believe it.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it is going to be a crazy atmosphere.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: And we'll talk about that as we read to show
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: tonight with the tail Gate report and stuff like that.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: But I mean, you know, listen, first ever wide out.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Uh you know we're copying Penn State, got those rivalry jerseys,
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: the icy Ones coming out on Sunday night. I mean,
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: the crowd's going to be electric. You already know that
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: how that works. I mean, this's the last season at
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: the Ralph, so everybody's going to be full throttle Division
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: rival DT. Here's my only thing that I would listen,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to be surprised if they keep this
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: game close. I'm not even gonna be surprised if they
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: beat us because of the fact of the defense. And
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: we'll talk about that and touched on that in a second.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: My big thing is that I don't want him to
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: have anything easy. How about that if there's anything that
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: he gets on Sunday night because of his talent, his
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: arm strength, you know, his ability to move around the
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: pocket and escape. Listen, make him work for everything. You're
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: absolutely right about the age. He's the second year. I
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: think he's only played seventeen games. They only won one
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: last year when he started and finished the game, because
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: I know he came out of one of them against
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: us or whatever. Listen, put this kid in situations where
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: he's uncomfortable. The best way to do that is to
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: have penetration up front, you know, getting those guys in
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: his face. I don't know if at Oliver is going
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: to be back. I know that he was limited again today. Listen,
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: find a way to make him uncomfortable, find a way
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: to make his life a little bit tougher. Yes they did.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: You're right. You can give a shout out, and you
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: can give props to the fact that they did invest
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: around him. Their lines better. I mean, their line was
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: absolute dogshit last year. They draft Will Campbell, They've got
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: some other guys in there. Listen, find a way to
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: make him uncomfortable and let's see how he handles it.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: I don't want what I'm going to be upset with
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: most is if everything is coming easy. Spencer Rattler is okay.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: He is not a great quarterback. He's definitely bottom five.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: He got some easy stuff on Sunday. Not everything was easy,
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: but he did get some easy stuff. You absolutely pointed
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: out right. But DT, it's gonna piss me off if
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: I'm watching him run around, escape the pocket, different things
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: like that. No, you know, gap integrity and he's just
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: doing what he wants to do or flip side. They
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: just run it down our throats because of the fact,
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: like you know, they saw that the Saints did it,
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: they saw that you know, the Dolphins were able to
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: do it, they saw what the Baltimore was able to do,
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: and they just run the ball on this all damn game.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna like either one of those because running
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: the ball all that does is keep the game closer.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: All that does is give them ball control. Find a
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: way to stop the run on Sunday and find a
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: way to affect the quarterback. I know it sounds cheesy
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: and corny, but that really is the recipe for most
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: successful defenses DT is find a way to affect the quarterback,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: stop the run, make them one dimensional, and just don't
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: give up easy shit.
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: I don't think last week we took a threat of
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: Spencer Rattler. I don't think that was in the game
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: plan at all, And I thinking everything else was gauged
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: to let the quarterback do whatever he wants and we'll
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: guard everything else. And I think this week that tone
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: changes a little bit. I think we're taking May a
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: lot more seriously than Spencer Rattler. I think in the
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: game plan that will be a situation where we focus
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: on him and take ten out of the game. In
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: all aspects, this team has shown they kind of figured
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: out their run game a little last week. Rookie Henderson
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: had a lot more carries. You know, Stevenson's a good
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: a good back as well. They paid him a lot
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: of money to be to be their future back and
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: they still drafted Henderson and he kind of figured it
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: out last week. But they also prone that they are
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: very prone to mistakes. Against the Steelers, they what, they
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: have five turnovers?
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was wild to watch.
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, five turnovers and the Steelers just beat him by
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: one touchdown. So yes, they they're figuring it out. But
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: I think our game plan is a lot more serious
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: and catered right directly to ten and shutting him down
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: and making other players beat us. You know, okay, let him,
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: let him run the ball, but but Ten's not going
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: to get in a rhythm. Ten's not gonna beat us
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: with his feet. He's not gonna find his receiver. He's
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: not gonna find stuff on Diggs.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: You know, get that.
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: You know, rivalry back and check whatever we want to
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: talk about with that. But I think it's a lot
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: more serious game plan to go directly at ten, and
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: penetration is the key to do that as well. As
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: this team has shown their prone to turnovers, so kind
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: of really try to force that early, get the crowd
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: behind you, and carry get that momentum. The past two
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: games where we had opportunities to blow the game open,
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: this has to happen this time. So this because this
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: teems a lot better and can come back as opposed
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: to the teams who were playing that you know, that
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: showed they really couldn't.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, they could put up points for sure, and
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: obviously they showed it last week against Carolina and put
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: up a bunch of points. So we'll see how it
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: goes in that respect. But you know, I wanted to
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: flip it as we flip to the ball before we
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: get to the Tailgate report, you know, offensively, James cook Man,
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: I just I feel like I want to take like
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: fifty victory laughs, because I told the portion of Bill's
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: mafia who kept saying get him out of here. He's selfish,
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: And I kept telling everybody that just calm down, like,
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: let the agents work. This dude is worthy of a raise.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: And if you were at your job and you knew
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: that you w had outperformed your contract, you would be
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: well within your rights to ask for a raise. So
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: I'm not trying to rub anybody's nose in it, but boy, like,
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: could you imagine what this offense would look like without him?
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: Like the way that they are catering it to the
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: everybody eats approach, the way that they are catering it to.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: Let's take more off of Josh's plate. Let's not make
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: him do everything. You know, he throws his first pick
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: last week, which is like, you know, forty hours downfield,
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: doesn't hurt us at all. DT. The dude was just
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: named AFC Player of the Month today or yesterday. He
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: is so electric, he is so elusive. I would be
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: at what I heard. I don't know half a dozen
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: twenty times throughout the offseason. Ray Davis can do what
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: he does. Ty Johnson could do what he does. I
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: don't even see Ray Davis getting any Carris anymore. Tdd Johnson.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: You know, Todd Johnson has his role, and I respect
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: his role as a pass catching back and obviously a
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: third down back that can help block. They are letting
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: James Cook tote that rock. They're giving him opportunities, and
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: he is not failing. He is not disappointing. He's been
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: every penny worth that race. And I just kept telling everybody,
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: keep the vibes good. Let this man get paid. No,
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: he's not going to get fifteen million. No, Brandon Bean
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: is not going to pay him fifteen million. But let
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: him do whatever he's got to do. And then everybody,
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: as soon as he did, his little hole in a
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: ship him out of town. I never understood the logic.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: I always thought that he was an excellent player, and
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: I thought he was worthy. That's the number one thing.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: The guys in that locker room understood that he was
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: worthy of it. That's why nobody trashed him. That's why
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: Josh supported him hoping he'll hope they get something done
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: soon because we really need him. He's amazing, man, he is.
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: He is. He's a top five back to me now, he's.
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: Second best playmaker on this team and top five back
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: in the league. He has proved every second of it.
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: I mean, yeah in fantasy. It was in fantasy as well.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: I know it's a whole different world in fantasy and whatnot,
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: but it was heavy hate on.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Four this year.
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: Like, no way, he's getting sixteen touchdowns again, no way,
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: none of this. And he might have sixteen touchdowns by
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: week eight, right, he's about to score to a game.
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: He's a loose and he's running between the tackles this year.
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: Rob not that he hasn't before, but he was an
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: outside more of an outside back, more of a you know,
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: speed edge guy, and majority of his tackles right now
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: are coming between the tackles, and he's shifty in the middle.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: He's a little shady McCoy to him between the tackles,
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: like he hits that hit and then he boom, he's
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: he's up. So I think he's worth every penny. Obviously
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: I would. I'm not saying give him less carries, but
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: I'm also saying that let's with the Yeah, let's we
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: don't need to give him ninety five percent. And we
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: know Ray Davis can play, we know Tdy Johnson can play,
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: so let's start putting that in the fold a little bit.
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: But maybe this is all part of gaman ship and
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: strategy and the fact of like, damn, they are just
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: gonna run James Cook twenty times, so we got to
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: be prepared for that. And then the second you're prepared
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: for that, you see Ray Davis for ten carries and
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: you don't know what's going on. So maybe it's all
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: part is setting up the bigger picture. And I'm all
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: for all that, but I do agree, like credits where
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: credits due. He got sixteen touchdowns with forty seven percent
• 26:44
  Speaker 4: of the snaps. He's playing way more than that this year,
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: and you know, and so I agree, like you see
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: it with Derrick Henry every year, toteing the pill hard
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: all season and then by the end of the year
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: he's not the same guy. He doesn't have a playoff experience,
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: He's not good in the playoffs. He just cause he's
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: has forty carries a game and he's he's worn out.
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: So I would like to see, you know, a little
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: less office plate. You showed us you're worth a twelve mil.
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: We'd love it. But we also know we can make
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: plays with seventeen, and we can make plays with everybody eats,
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: and we can we can score other ways too, So
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: let's let's try to ease back a little on him
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: and so it's not an injury and it's not something
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: that you know, he gets worn out by the end
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: of the year, because we know other backs and play
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: and that's no discredit to him. I love every second
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: of it, and I hope score it. He does score
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: a touchdown in every in every single game, but I
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: would like to see kind of roll back create some
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: longevity with this. So we have this exact verse. This
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: is Dak Speed in the ASCY Championship, in the Super
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: Bowl in times when we need that yard.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: No, I'm with you on that for sure. I mean,
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: if they were if Joe Brady was trying to make
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: a point, or what if the case may be that
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: this guy could be a feature back, then I'm definitely
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: I'm all for going ahead on and just slowing everything
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: down a little bit and not really running him into
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: the ground as we kind of come into this, you know,
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: saw little softer portion of the schedule as we approached
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: the bye weekend, then after that with Carolina. Now as
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: we begin to transition again, Tonight's episode is also presented
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: by taste of Buffalo pizzeria that DT talked about earlier. Yes,
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: Drake May is from Huntersville. That's right here in Huntersville,
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: North Carolina, right here in Charlotte where I am. Listen,
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: if you are missing your food, if you are Western
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: New York and you are down here in Charlotte, check
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: out my girl Jen Pattaglia and her family taste a
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: Buffalo pizzaia in Huntersville. They've got all of the authentic
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: style pizza. They are from Buffalo to Pew Area. They've
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: got everything that you need. I'm trying to tell you,
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: the wings, the pizza, it all tastes like it's right
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: from back home in Western New York. You will not
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: go wrong, DT. You know, as we begin to wrap
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: up on this game, you know, I already kind of
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: said it. I'm not concerned that we are going to lose,
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: but I do see a path for them winning. I
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: couldn't see a path for the Saints winning. I could
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: barely glimp, you know, just barely see Miami winning. Definitely
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: couldn't see the Jets winning week one. So you know,
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, anything can happen in Week one for Baltimore,
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: and obviously Baltimore is a whole different beast for this game.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: It's Sunday night at the Ralph. I just gotta believe,
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, the white jersey's coming out. I gotta believe
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: that there's gotta be some energy that they can feed
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: off of this first wide out where we can't let
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: these boys come in and punk us. Yes, Rabel, you're right.
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: He is a better coach than, obviously than Mayo was. Yes,
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: the roster is better than it was last year. The
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: Bill's got to take care of business. Don't get punked
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: on rivalry night when you were releasing your jerseys. Listen,
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: take care of business. Somehow. This young kid is going
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: to be here to stay. He probably already is the
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: second best quarterback in the division. Because two it looks
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: like he's on the decline. Don't don't give them, don't
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: give him any easy shit. Don't let them come into
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: the Ralph and get a win. I will be I
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: will be mad. As much as I could, I could
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: see it possibly happening. I will be I'll be mad
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: as a rattlesnake man. Don't let them punk us man
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: on rivalry night.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: Well, I'll ask you, Rob who will be more mad?
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: You or somebody that spent one hundred and seventy dollars
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: on one of these rivalry jerseys wearing them. They're only
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: wearing them for one game, and they if they lose
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: in that game. You you have that jersey for one
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: hundred and eighty bucks, and that's the one game they
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: lost in the season. So yeah, I think a lot
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: of people would be bad, obviously. It's uh, it's it's
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: the goal, the number one goal of getting that one seed,
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: and that's what we have to do. That's the one
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: thing we haven't done. And there's nothing that sets up
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: better for us in the previous years of Josh Allen's
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: tenure than this year to get that one seed. So
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: I think that's the goal. That's right, it is it's
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: the divisional matchup. It's even if you drop one on
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: the road to them later in the year, get this one.
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: Get this one. Like the Sunday night ball white out.
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: It's gonna be awesome in there.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: I'm jealous.
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: I'm not going and we'll get into that, and it's
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: it's it's gonna be loud, and and the jerseys are sick.
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: I saw I played in Madden. I played this game
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: in Madden last night at the at the match and
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: did the jerseys and they they do look clean, they
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: do look nice. So it's gonna be a great, you know,
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: visual feature. But at the end of the day, it's
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: primetime ball and Josh Allen's at the helm, you know.
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: And so yes, this team is a little spicy, and
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: I think we're building this team up, maybe a little
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: more than usual. The Patriots, I'm saying, I think we're
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: building the Patriots up a little more than usual because
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: we're kind of longing for somebody to be a worthy opponent, right,
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: we need somebody to be a worthy opponent. And we
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: got The Dolphins were rolled off quick, the Saints had
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: no chance, the Jets were blah, the Ravens were and
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: we came back and beat them and it was it
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: was wild. So this is our first like worthy opponent,
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: if you will. And I think we're as the Mafia,
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: we're kind of juicing that up. Probably a little more
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: than reality really says it is. And I think we're
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: going to see that on Sunday night. This is the
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: maybe the most least expected blowout, and this might be
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: the one they put up forty five and we're out
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: of there quickly. So I'm hoping for that, for the
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: for the for the sake of all these kids with
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: one hundred and eighty dollars, you know, shiny shiny bill
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: on their shoulder, Get them to win so they could
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: keep wearing that jersey to school.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: And it's not a waste.
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: And I think we're cramping this up, own it up
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: a little higher than they really deserve to be. They're worthy,
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: they're fine, Drake May's good, but I think it's a
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: little cranked up more than usual. Seventeen's a prime time
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: killer and we're gonna go in there in this white
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: out and hopefully make it happen.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: All right like that? I like that. I definitely didn't
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: expect that last statement about maybe just just blowing their
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: doors off. I mean, but hey, I'm always down for it.
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, like I said, I can't get enough of
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: after that twenty year run. I always love and see
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: seeing the Patriots go down now, final thing. We're getting
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: ready to get to the Nickel City Nickel City crew.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: Excuse me, tailgate report, DT. You already know I have
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: the stamina. I don't have any problem, and I rather
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: enjoy now boxing and spiring on Twitter. I have heard
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: some weird stuff. I'm not going to call anybody out
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: or anything like that. There's this one dude that I
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: went back and forth with for the last about day
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: or so who's just got horrible takes. Number fourteen is
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: back in the building. Okay, Now listen me personally, and
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: I'm a little bit different. If I was at the
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: Ralph on Sunday, I'd clap and I'd cheer for him
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: the reason. But you know, when they on the come
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: out or whatever they do now there's not hockey, They're
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: probably not doing a tribute video or anything like that,
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: although that would be classy, but I doubt that they
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: do something like that. Listen, I understand that he plays
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: with the other team. I understand that he is no
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: longer a Buffalo Bill. However, he was my favorite Buffalo
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: Bill when he was here. There is an argument DT
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: over a four year stretch, there's an argument that he's
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: the greatest wide receiver in Bill's history. That's over Andre Over, Molds,
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: over Lofton Over. I mean, hey, listen the stats. And
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying that he doesn't have the career longevity,
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: but you know, a four year stretch. You can't find
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: me better stats, Stevie Johns. You can't find me better stats.
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: What I would love to see and what I don't
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: expect to see based on what I'm reading on Twitter,
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: they are ready to boo this dude. They are ready.
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: It's like Jack Echel all over again. Don't get it.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: I don't understand that energy. Maybe and maybe it's me.
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: I never really understood the whole Jack Eiicel thing because
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, we were we were losers, and we kept losing.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: So why would you not expect the young kid to
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: eventually get frustrated to want to leave and go somewhere
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: and compete. Diggs is obviously not a situation like Jack Eichel,
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: but it the mafia seems ready dt to let this dude.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: Hear it. I expect it on every catch that he
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: catches and stuff like that. Can you explain to me
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: why that is? Why did people hate him so much
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: or dislike him I don't even like using the word hate,
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: but they there seems to be a vitriol for this dude.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: And he was amazing and all of the ones talking
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: shit about him, you all were cheering for him on
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Sundays when he's hooking up with seventeen. I don't, I
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: just I just I don't get it, man, I don't
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: get it. We have seventeen.
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we won the game, and it's it's somebody that
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: you know, was painted as the villain and it and
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: it was something that I think we he as a
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: fan base, wanted to feel better about. Why aren't we
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: not you know, why are we not getting over the hump?
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: Why are we not getting that Super Bowl? And that
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: was an easy scapeguard, you know, if you will, And
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: it boiled up enough to where he legit got shipped
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: out of town. But I agree with you, Rob, there
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: is no you cannot deny the success he had while
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: he was here. We talked about it numerous times of
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: the the miseducation of Stefan Diggs where he just wanted
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: to win. And maybe who knows if we were wrong
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: or right in that, and but the the intensity is
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: what we were talking about.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: The intensity is what this team.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: Lacked and what we needed, and he brought that if
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: he did it the right way.
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: We don't know.
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: Obviously, that's all internally, but the actual production, like you said,
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: the stats are undeniable. I mean, he had the four
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: year stretch. He had over a thousand yards every single
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: year he played for the Buffalo Bills. He was he
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: great in the playoffs, not necessarily, but the games he
• 35:59
  Speaker 4: was getting locked up in double triple team gave. Davis
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: had five touchdowns in the Earth four touchdowns in the
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: thirteen second game, like he his being good led him
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: to be locked up in the playoffs, leading other people
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: to have success. And you have to accept that the
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: drop and get the city. Everyone wants to get back
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: to that one, YadA, YadA, YadA. But I think there's
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: a lot of other factors. You can't deny the success
• 36:21
  Speaker 4: he had while he was here. You can't deny that
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: seventeen is who he is today because he had a
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: guy he could throw the ball to and he knew
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: it was gonna come down with a catch. So I
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: have no qualms with with with Diggs. What's he wearing
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: one now? Is he won on the Patriots eight?
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: All right?
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: All right, So eight.
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: The last time eight was in the building, he came
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: in and you know, lost the game, but we you know,
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: gave us a run in week one in Lamar Jackson.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: So I don't have no qualms with eight.
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: Eight.
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: He's gonna get booed. You know that's gonna happen.
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: And I hope, I hope it relates to kind of like, Okay,
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: it's the intensity of the game and we bow him
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: and it doesn't even matter because we're up so big late.
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: It doesn't even if he does get a few catches
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter, who cares. But I don't think
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: you can honestly say like it's a it's okay to
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: boom in.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: The in the he you do what you want to do,
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: You do.
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: Your thing, and and if it leads to the intensity
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: and leads to a like a rockus volatile atmosphere, I'm
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: all for that. I don't want teams to come in
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: here and be comfortable, you know. I I don't want
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: teams to come in here and have a good time.
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: So if it's booing Stephan digs and it gets them
• 37:28
  Speaker 4: all worked up and everyone's like, oh damn Diggs, and everyone's.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: Screw it, let's bow the guy. But you can't.
• 37:34
  Speaker 4: You can't deny the success he had when he was
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: with us, and and I appreciate all that success, you know,
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: I as I gear up for a great wedding weekend
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: coming up and with Kaien Page, and they're diehard Vikings
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: fans and a great story of like in their early
• 37:48
  Speaker 4: part of the relationship, we came down to Charlotte and
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: Stephan Diggs. He's traded traded from the Vikings to the Bills,
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: and how big that was and what a crazy environment
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: and then he comes in and instantly starts having success.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: And I agree, Rob.
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: I mean, up and down North Buffalo, every street, every
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: house had one of those like politician signs all.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: Twenty.
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: So I'm all for the intensity of the game and
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: if it's if it's making that team uncomfortable coming in
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: here and booing the guy great, but you can't deny
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: the fact that he was successful here and he was
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: a big part of seventeen success.
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: And I will never I will never say that wasn't
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: a thing.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: And it's that last part that's what I don't care
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: about what they do as a fan. I'm kind of
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: you know, that's tongue in cheek. I'm joking. I know
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: they're not doing a tribute video. I know they're gonna
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: boo the Patriots when they come out. It's that last
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: part they try to rewrite on Twitter, the history and
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: they try to, like, you know, almost make it as
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: if you know, he didn't mean anything to Josh's success,
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: And I just I just never understood, like it was
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: a symbiotic relationship. I never drew because now you're now
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: what you're what you're actively trying to do is rewrite
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: history to fit your narrative. Like that's not even like,
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: why is that even necessary? Like Diggs was great? Alan
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: was great? Was Alan as great as he was before
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: Diggs got here?
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: No?
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: And did he become a better player after Diggs got here? Yes?
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: And what same thing was Diggs is great of a
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: wide receiver. I think it was a great great wide receiver,
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: didn't have the opportunities, and then he comes here, gets
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: away from theling, gets away from Zimmer who's running the
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: ball all the time, and all of a sudden he
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: rocket chips off. I think that it was just perfectly symbiotic.
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: I think that they both helped each other. You guys.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: Remember the Sports Illustrated cover you guys, like DT said,
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: remember the stuff with the Aled Diggs posters. So just
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: relax a little bit on Twitter. Stopped coming at me.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: I have the stamminda to fight y'all until Sunday. I
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: don't want. I'm sick of fighting. I just like I
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: gave up on this one dude that had horrible takes
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: and he's crying targets. I'm like, Diggs never cried for targets.
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: And why wouldn't you throw it to him? Why when
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: you throw the.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: Force feeding him, he's always open, like he's a route technician,
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: Like why would Joash not throw somebody open? Yeah.
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: I will also argue with the point of that, like
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: people saying you can't compare stuff on Diggs right now
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: to what he was five years ago in Buffalo. Dude
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: is is five years older after an ACL, Like he
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: is not the dominant receiver he once was. So yes,
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: he goes out there and might not look great and
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: you could be like see see see, Like that's.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: The worst point. That's the worst point.
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: I agree like that, because if he's not who he
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: was five years ago, he's towards ACL.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: He's been around like it's not who he is. So
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: you know, credit to.
• 40:21
  Speaker 4: Him, I'm not I'm not gonna I'm not gonna, you know,
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: glaze him on Sunday like, oh, we need to respect
• 40:26
  Speaker 4: this man.
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: But fuck all that.
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: But but you know, you can't deny the success he
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: had and it was beneficial to this team until it wasn't.
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: And obviously when it wasn't, he got shipped out. So like,
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: it's not like it wasn't and we kept him and
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: it was toxic and toxic if it got to the
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: most toxic point we shipped him out, then okay, that
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: then we should be happy about that. That like it
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: didn't reach a point where it was too toxic. It
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: kind of reached into that realm and then things happened.
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: We moved on.
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: That's the business of the NFL.
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: But you can't deny the success he had, and you know,
• 40:58
  Speaker 4: you don't have to support him Sunday, but you also
• 41:00
  Speaker 4: can't say you also can't say you know, he wasn't
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: he wasn't good for this team in seventeen's growth.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I agree with you. You know, I'm going
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: a little bit overboard on purpose, you know, to be
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: being theatrical in that respect. But I mean, I absolutely,
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: you know, I just think that there should be a
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: modicum of not rewriting history and stuff like that. And
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: that's all I wanted to say on that I have
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: the stamina twitter to fight y'all all the way to
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: Sunday after Sunday. It doesn't it doesn't really matter to
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: me anymore. He's not on the Buffalo bills anymore. I
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: roll with the bills. The bills are my squad. So
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: it's all good man, all right. Now, as we begin

• 48:04
  Speaker 2: That has really awesome been DT down here in Charlotte.
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: Last week we had another game the regular season is
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: now wrapping up for Nate in that respect. Now horrible
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: for little Quincy man. His game was canceled for rainy.
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: We actually play on natural grass at that particular field
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: for Quincy, so he was really bummed out. But we'll
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: be right back at him this week. Really can't wait
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: to get on the on the field. Excuse me with
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: his little team. Like I said, remember I had to
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: switch teams and now he's on a different team, an
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: age appropriate team. So I was really excited for him
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: and to see him get out there. But it was
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: rained out unfortunately, So that's all good. Bobby played a
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: soccer game that morning on Saturday morning. They still played
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: in the ring because they're on turf. He won his game,
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: and then Nate went out. We had a home game.
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: He did his best. You know what I mean there?
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: The team is I mean, I don't want to trash
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: to eleven years. The team's not that good. But listen,
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: what did I tell you last week? We had a
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: little teaching moment where I told him is what I
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: care about. I care about you, not your offensive line
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: knocked all the other guys around. What are you doing?
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: Much better? Effort? Played really hard, so I offered them
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: do the scoreboard. Every week they send out a little
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: voluntary list, volunteer list. So I said, okay, I'll do
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: the scoreboard. I'm sitting there. I got Ivy and we're
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: up there and Quincy's there with me, and I look
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: to my right and I see a microphone and I'm like,
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: it's like, I grab. I don't know if it works.
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: I don't you know what I mean. I've never been
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: there before in that respect, so I've never been in
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: that booth. So I grabbed the mic. I tap it
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: on the thing and I can hear it. So then
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: I'm like Quincy, I said, Quincy, head outside real quick,
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: outside of this, uh, outside of this, and tell me
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: if you can hear me. So I, you know, and
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: I keep tapping the mic. He's like I can hear you.
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: I was like, okay, So I start. I start, you know,
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: nothing crazy. I'm just first and ten giants. You know,
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: it's second and ten giants. Whatever. So the director of
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: the entire pee Wee league comes up, comes up to
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: the booth or whatever. He's like, you sound. He's like,
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: you sound. I'm really great. I really like it. So
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: I was like I couldn't tell you. He was like, fuck,
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: it would be or something like that. And I was like,
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: I'm like, are you being facetious and he was like no.
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: He was like I'd pay you to come here and
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: do this. He was like, you are really good. Then
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: another mom comes up like you sticking her head and
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: like you are really good at this. You should do
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: this for a living. I'm like, well, I actually do
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: have a little podcast, but i'd love to, you know.
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: That's that's my dream was being a broadcaster. Long story short.
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: I did the little thing for them, so I'm gonna
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: do it again this Sunday something. I mean, I'm like, listen, man,
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: I'll just do all the games for for Nate for
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: the rest of the season that are home games. So
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: it was cool because it brought back memories. I mean
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: I used to do the Star Points football games back
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: when I was a kid. It just brought back memories
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: and stuff. And it was totally innocent. I just grabbed
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: the mic because I saw it there and I was
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: like does this thing work? And is this on? I'm like, Quincy,
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: go check and it was on. So We're just first
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: down Giants and you know, penalty on the plate, you know,
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: shit like that, and like they the crowd loved it.
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: It added a little stuff to the game. So I
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: was like, I keep doing it then you know what
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: I mean if they like it. So that was really
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: funny this week, Michaels. I mean, listen then, I I'm
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: totally totally organic. It wasn't like I was seeking out
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: attention or something like that. I was sitting there doing
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: the clock and then I just you know, it just
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: it's just in me, man. I love broadcasting. So that
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: was the funny story. We watched the game. It's listened Sunday, man,
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: it was it was slow motion. I told you at
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: one o'clock, what did I tell you? I was worried
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: about Ivy and I'm like, wow, I'm gonna do this
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: this this talk about a trooper. I mean she was,
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: she was ready to go. She took an early morning nap,
• 51:23
