  Speaker 1: you need to know before you start your day. Let's
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: get right into it. The Bills fall to the Patriots 29-26.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: Buffalo drops a divisional heartbreaker at high mark after trading
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: blows back and forth in the fourth quarter, including a
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: go-ahead 34-yard touchdown pass from Josh Allen to Keion Coleman.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Drake May answered with an 8-play, 73-yard touchdown drive with
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: a 2-point conversion to put New England up 29-26 with
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: a minute and 50 left. On Buffalo's final drive, Allen
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: was intercepted by Craig Woodson at the New England 19-yard
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: line with a minute and 14 remaining to seal the loss.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Drake May was 22-37 for 269 yards and 3 touchdowns
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: with 1 interception and a 97.7 QB rating. Josh Allen
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: was 23-33 for 253 yards, 1 touchdown, 1 interception, and
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: an 89.6 rating. James Cook rushed for 75 yards on
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: 12 carries. That's good for 6.3 yards per attempt and
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: 1 touchdown. New England ran 73 plays to Buffalo's 54
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: and owned the time of possession, 33 minutes and 41
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: seconds to 26 minutes and 19 seconds. Keon Coleman was
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: one of the lone bright spots and had a monster
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: game with 6 catches for 116 yards and a touchdown.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Khalil Shakir caught 7 of 8 targets for 82 yards.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: With his second quarter rushing touchdown, Josh Allen recorded his
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: 88th career scrimmage touchdown, officially surpassing Thurman Thomas and Andre
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Reid as the most in Buffalo Bills franchise history. Let's
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: dive into Joe Brady's postgame press conference. When asked about
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: the game-selling interception by Craig Woodson with a minute 14 remaining,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Brady immediately put the blame on his own shoulders. He
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: admitted that New England brought a front twist that generated
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: a free runner at Josh Allen, and Josh Allen admitted
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: that he should have thrown the ball away. But Brady
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: stated plainly, I got to have a better play call
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: in that situation to put him in a position to succeed.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Another major takeaway from Brady's press conference was his response
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: regarding Dalton Kincaid. Kincaid finished with just two targets, the
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: quietest game of his career, and Brady didn't sugarcoat it.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: He said flat out, quote, There's no reason that Don
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Kincaid should ever have two targets. That falls on me.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Now Brady did point out that Josh made the right reads.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: New England was jumping Kincaid's route underneath, which opened up
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Keon Coleman downfield for 116 yards and a touchdown on
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: the day. But Brady knows that if 86 isn't the
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: focal point of the passing attack, the offense loses its
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: cheat code in the middle of the field. One of
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: the more interesting parts of the press conference came when
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: reporters asked why rookie cornerback Maxwell Harrison wasn't benched or
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: rotated out after New England targeted him repeatedly. Brady gave
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: a passionate defense of his culture in Jim Leonard's defensive room.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: He said, as soon as a player believes that we've
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: lost trust in him, we've lost him. Brady made it
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: clear that he refuses to operate in a reactionary world
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: where a young player gets yanked in the second he
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: loses a rep. He's backing Harrison and Igbenosen to build
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: competitive stamina throughout adversity rather than shaking their confidence mid-game.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: To wrap it up, Brady gave us a peek into
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: his head coaching mindset. When asked about how he'll process
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: his first regular season loss, he gave a fantastic quote.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: The last three times I've left the stadium, I've left
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: pissed off. Win or loss. His message to the locker
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: room was simple. Great teams shouldn't have to lose to learn.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: But now that they did, Nobody's allowed to point fingers
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: or look for excuses.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: Injury update. Several Bills were in and out of the
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: blue medical tent on Sunday. The first and most notable
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: was wide receiver DJ Moore, who appeared to re-aggravate his
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: shoulder injury from two weeks ago. He was first questionable
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: and later doubtful to return and ultimately did not come
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: back for the rest of the game. Adam Schefter reported
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: that it is not considered a long-term issue as of
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: right now. Slot corner D. Alford injured his ankle in
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: practice squad call-up to Corey Couch, was ruled doubtful to
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: return with a hamstring injury, leaving the Bills very thin
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: at corner since Christian Benford was already inactive. Ed Oliver
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: injured his knee and was ruled questionable to return. Landon
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Jackson injured his knee but was cleared to return and
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: did come back later in the game. The Bills failed
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: to score on a two-point conversion yesterday, bringing their season
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: total to 0-2. Last season, the team went just 2-for-9
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: on two-point attempts. Overall, the Bills are 3-for-12, or 25%,
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: since Joe Brady became the offensive coordinator. For context, from
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: 2020 to 2023, under Brian Dable and Ken Dorsey, the
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: team was 8-for-13, a much more palatable 61.5% success rate.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Other stats, the rookie got on the board yesterday, TJ Parker,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: recorded his first career sack and first career forced fumble,
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: which was recovered by Greg Gaines. Aaron mentioned Allen is
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: up to 88 scrimmage touchdowns, which includes 86 on the ground.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: That ties him with Priest Holmes for the 16th most
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: in NFL history. Around the NFL, the Indianapolis Colts moved
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: to 2-2 with a 30-13 victory over the Washington Commanders
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: in London. The Houston Texans fall to 0-4 to start
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: the year, losing a Battle of Texas shootout 34-30 against
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: the Cowboys. The Baltimore Ravens improve to 3-1 with a
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: 24-18 win over the Titans, who are now 0-4. Lamar Jackson, though,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: is going to be day-to-day after suffering an ankle injury.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Tyler Huntley played the rest of the game after Jackson exited.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: The Jaguars move to 3-1 with a 22-17 victory over
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Bengals. The Jets fall to 1-3 after they
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: lost 23-12 to the Bears. That was with Tyson Bajent
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: starting at quarterback. The Dolphins fall to 0-4 while the
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Vikings stay perfect 4-0 with an ugly 15-10 win. Vikings
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: kick five field goals in that game to eke out
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: with a victory. The Chargers also fall to 0-4. They
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: lost 30-23 to the Seahawks. The Broncos are now at 500, 2-2.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: after losing 24-14 to the 49ers, who also remain perfect
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: at 4-0. And in the battle of the two undefeated
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: AFC West teams, it's the Chiefs who squeeze by with
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: a 30-27 win over the Raiders, who are still an
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: impressive 3-1 to start the season. Missed the Cover 1
