• 1:53
  Speaker 3: goes on as the schedule is coming out, but the
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: full twenty twenty five NFL schedule was released on Wednesday,

  Speaker 5: Rob?
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: Going to be back after the week off?
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: And yeah, our first look at seventeen and oh or
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl run or the last season in the
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Ralph whatever you want to call it.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: They're all hashed out. We knew the opponents.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Now we get to dig in a little bit to
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: the particulars of how it all stacks up, and you
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: know how we're gonna spend realistically, our whole lives from
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: September through through February. So I'm pumped up. It's always fun.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: The NFL knows it too, and we talk about the
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: entertainment business and how big they are and they know it.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: They just they straggle everybody along and throw a little
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: taste here, a little taste there. Josh Adam was supposed
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: to be on The Today Show like fourteenth as ever
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: was and then and then they just release it so
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: that teams getting creative with their schedule, release videos. That's
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: kind of cool. We'll talk about that tonight as well.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: And it's a whole operation, just like the NFL does.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Nothing can just be something small. It's big and it
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: is big. I'm pumped up. I'm ready to get this
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: schedule our lives as the real schedule comes out.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny that you say that about, you know,
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: spending your lives, because for me and you know that,
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: and I know it for you as well, and so
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: many Mafia members. It's it's really it really is like that.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's not a it's not hyperbolic to say that.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: I mean, we schedule everything, events, parties, everything is kind
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: of revolving around holidays. We were all concerned about if
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: the bills are gonna be on holidays this year, and
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: you know, Thanksgiving or Christmas. There was rumors and stuff
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: like that when the schedule leaks were coming out and
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: all the rumors. It's funny because we really do kind
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: of just schedule everything around the Buffalo bills. And that's
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: what really makes it so unique, because you're absolutely right,
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: the NFL is kingpin. They know what they're the eight
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: hundred pound gorilla, and they just kind of just run
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: shit like they just they really do it. Because on
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: seasons where like this one where I'll be back in
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: the saddle as season ticket holder, you know, it's just
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: everything I'm looking at the dates I've got, you know,
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: three of my kings and both of my princesses are
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: born in the vault, like so I'm just like trying
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: to figure out what's going.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: On, like where, you know, where's everything kind of lining up?
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: When's the kids day game for the preceson and then
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: when's the opener? And then everything from there, you know,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: just kind of unravels, and it's really really important. I
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: know that it might seem silly to some people, but
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: you gotta plan. You gotta have a plan ahead, and
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: we'll talk about some of the plans that we have
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: this year, because I know that there's a special game
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: on the schedule.
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: For me down here in Charlotte that means a lot.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: So we'll get into it, DT, first glance, at first blush,
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: I want you your immediate reaction about what you thought
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: about the schedule, and we'll get through and we'll go
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: through all seventeen games, eighteen weeks to buy week falls
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: in week seven a little bit earlier this year.
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: But DT, at first blush, what did you think?
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: And I'll give you my thoughts because when I looked
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: at it, I had some some immediate reactions for sure
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: about what I thought about this schedule that's compared to
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: last year or any other year.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, first thought was an overwhelming surprise of no
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: holiday games.
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: And a second quick.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Thought is is stack wins early? Stack wins early? Those
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: are my quick knee jerk reactions to the schedule. It's
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: very surprise no holidays and stack wins early.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I like that, you know, And I'm not I'm
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: not you know, I'm not against you know, the holidays
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: or anything like that. I don't I don't not necessarily
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: not want to see the Bills on that. I've enjoyed
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: the Thanksgiving I think they've played in all three different
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: slots against the Lions. They played the afternoon game against
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: the Cowboys. That was kind of one of Josh Allen's
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: coming out parties for the rest of the nation. And
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: then I know we beat up on the Saints one
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: year when they were depleted. It's funny because when you
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: look at the schedule and the holidays and stuff like that,
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: I don't I know some of Bills Mafia thought that
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: it was a slight that you know, I guess Miami's
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: got seven primetime games and we have five.
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: I don't look at it like that.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: I see that everybody astutely pointed out, especially on WGR
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: this week, that that four twenty five is like it's
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: like a big game. Now, it's a it's like one
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: of those standalone Now. I know that they've got maybe
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: two other competing games and some West Coast games at
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: that time, but that four o'clock game CBS or Fox,
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: whoever's got that national Game of the week, that's a
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: that's almost damn near a primetime game. And we'll go
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: through the schedule in some of those slots that the
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: Bills are in, because they're on it a bunch, and
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: I just thought that the way that the schedule broke out,
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: I had no ill will feelings about the fact that
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: the Bills were not on the holidays. So happy we're
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: not going international. We'll get to talk about that as well,
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: but the fact that we've got a little bit of
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: consistency in respects to no holidays, don't have to worry
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: about that, don't have to worry about some crazy travel
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: across the pond.
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: I really do like the way that shapes up for
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: the Bills for sure.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that four to twenty five slot they say,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: time and time again is the most viewed game you
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: know of the week?
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: Is that four to twenty five?
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: I mean we're avid NFL fans, obviously diehard Bills fans,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: but avid NFL fans, And it's very rare, Rob I'm
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: making it all the way through that Sunday night game
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: and very rare. I even touch I even touch it
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: unless the Bills are playing, obviously, what you mean even
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: rare I even get to halftime of the Monday night games, right,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: You're exhausted from the weekend if you were, especially if
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: you went to the Bills game, you know, and everything
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: in between. It takes a lot out of you. So
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: to get out for these late night games, like it's
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: very rare. I'm actually watching the endings in the full
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: games of these Sunday night and Monday night unless it's
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: the Bills. So yeah, the four to twenty five slot
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: is the prime time slot, if you will.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: And we've talked about it for years.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: When we first started Nickel City Crew, it was more
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: of excitement to get out of one o'clock's And now
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: we missed the one o'clock because, as as our listeners know,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: we're professional tailgaters.
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: We do it right.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: We got everything in order and we know exactly how
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: one o'clock game should be. We're getting better now at
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: the other games because we're getting a lot of other practice.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: But I missed the regulars. I can do. The four
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: twenties are nice.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Let you get through the day and then you you
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: got you got ball to focus on right before dinner
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: and in your evening. But that's that's the truth I
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: and I would argue a lot of real hardcore NFL
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: fans rarely make it through all Monday night and all
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Sunday night games. It's usually I'm the sleep timer when
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: I'm going in to go to bed for you know,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: for the next week, or maybe I got some fantasy
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: implications late. Right, the four to twenty five slot is
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: the new prime time. I'm not complaining about not, you know,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: about wishing we had more primetime games. I think it
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: sets up nice, and you know, we start to understand
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: the taxing toll of an NFL season and when star
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: players are getting heard, and this and that and everything
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: like that goes into that of knowing that the easiest
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: is the best, the most consistent is the best. And
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: I think it sets up pretty well this year as
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: we dig into it.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it does set up pretty well. And obviously, again,
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: as you've been unless you've been under a rock, you
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: you've already seen it by now. But the twenty twenty
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: five schedule came out and Week one, I mean, what
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: a Marky matchup. There were some rumblings that it could
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: be Cincinnati. The Bill's hosted Cincinnati on Sunday Night football.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: I personally am just excited that it's Baltimore because you
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: knew that you know DT that they were my bugaboo
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: last year. They had me scared shitless pretty much after
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: that drubbing that we took last year in the regular season,
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: I already admitted, I'm on the record I was more
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: nervous about the Divisional round game than I was the
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: AFC Championship game against the Chiefs.
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: I thought that we were better than the Chiefs, and
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: I thought we should beat them.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: I was deathly nervous about that, about that Ravens game
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: of the Divisional round, even though it was at home
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: Bills Sunday Night Football to kick it off, DT, I mean,
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: you can't.
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: You can't write a better script than that.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: The last two MVPs going at it, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson.
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: You've got the Buffalo Bill's new revamped defense.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: I know that we're going to be missing the Bash
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: Brothers against that game and for the first six weeks.
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: But outside of that, man, you've got a lot of
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: assets that.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: Have been poured into mcdermot's defense were for me, a
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: fan like me who's always keeping my eye close on him.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: There's just was just starting to peel back more excuses,
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: all these different layers and all these different things that
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: can hide that he may be able to hide behind
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: for his supporters, You're really starting to remove a lot
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: of those You've poured assets into this defense. What better
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: way to get a litmus test than Week one under
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: the lights at the rout season farewell Tour. It kicks
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: off man against the Ravens. I can't even imagine a
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: better matchup.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Man heavyweight bout, and the stereotypical response is, oh, you
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: want a cupcake game?
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: This gets started?
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: You know nowadays the starters don't play in the preseason
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: like they used to. You want to get the rust out.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Last year, we're sitting there against what should have been
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: a cupcake game against the Cardinals getting down what we
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: got down? Seventeen nothing? Didn't we just start the game
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: and obviously excuse me, storing back and took care of
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: that one. But the heavyweight battle? Do you want a cupcake?
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Do you want to get right into it?
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: I look back at the main opening days in my
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: history that were like the most exciting, and a couple
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: that come to mind are thirty three against New England
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Patriots with Sammy Adams doing that takes six.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: The one year the Chiefs came in. We were heavy underdogs.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Against the Chiefs and back even before Alex Smith, I think,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: and like the the Priest Holmes era, and we came
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: in and took care of that mount opening day. The
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: defending world champion La Rams a few years so we
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: go to LA and put the beat down on that
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: mound opening night. So I like the you know, yeah,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: a cupcake game would be nice, but looking back in
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: my Bill's history, some of the best openers are against
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: some primetime opponents.
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: When we go in there and lay the beat down, and.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: What a better way to get the litanus tests and
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: the MVP's going at it, and we go in on
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Sunday night and we're gonna be there loud and proud
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: seventeen and the boys go in and take care of business.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be tough to tell us something with the
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: rest of the schedule coming up before the bye week.
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: So I'm excited that.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: The point I heard all week was, yeah, cupcake would
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: be nice, but you literally have all off season to prepare.
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: You're not going to be beat up.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: It's not like the Derrick Henrys of the world are
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: going to like run you down late in the season
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: and you know, beat you up there. We're gonna be
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: able to plan for it. They're gonna be able to
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: plan for us. But it's tough to plan against Josh Alla.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is tough. And you know, I'm excited because
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: just the matchup and that you're absolutely right you hit
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: it on the head, because yeah, Cupcake would be fun.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: But I want to I want to know where we stand,
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: and it would be great to know where you stand
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: right off off the bat. And and for me, I
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: have such a respect for the Ravens and you know that.
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: And I have respect for the Chiefs too, but they're
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: just fucking annoying. But I have respect for the Ravens
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: and how they do their work and how they go
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: about their business hardball as well. And for me, it's
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: a situation where again McDermott has been supplied a lot
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: of things. I love your point about the off season.
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: There is no there's no you know, all man, we're
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: coming out for a short week or something. There's no
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: there's no excuses. You've got all these assets that you've
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: put in on the defense, and now you do get
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: an opportunity to get into the lab. As they say,
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Bobby Babbage and McDermott can figure out what their scheme
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: is going to be, like how they're gonna incorporate these guys.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: That's what training camp is really for, is kind of
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: tinkering with those types of lineups, substitution packages, different things
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: like that, what are you good at, what are some
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: of your strengths, and what are your weaknesses and how
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: can we hide those deficiencies when it comes time for
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: real ball. So I'm excited. There's no excuses in respects
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: to the ramp up because of the fact that, like
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: you just said that, both teams got a chance to prepare,
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: So I like that, man, I do.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be It's gonna be electric, you know, obviously
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: for sure, gonna be good weather. The only Kwalmba is
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: like now that we are like good, they're not giving
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: us any early season games at you know, one o'clock
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: where we can get the sunshine and everything. It's all
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: gonna be night. But at least it's gonna be a
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: warm night hopefully, and we're not gonna have to be,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: you know, bundled up in early September. The cliche here
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Rob is it's a can't lose really right if you
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: go in and beat the brakes off them. You're oh shit,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: here we go, Josh Allen, MVP. We're gonna roll again
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: this season. If you go in and get beat it's
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: a quick Hey, it's the first game. Let's get the
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: rust out. You know, there's some winnable games after this.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: It's it's game one. We're gonna be a whole different team,
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: you know later in the year when we see him
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: in the playoffs. So the cliche is you can't lose,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: but I don't really like that mentality. I like the
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: heavyweight battle you going in. We are a marquee team,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: we are one of the contenders. Josh Allen the best
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: player in the league by a lot of people's means.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: Let's go Sunday night ball. Everyone gets their their dose
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: of the openers on the Thursday Friday. Then you have
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: your first real game day, you know, at one o'clock,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: getting through all the games, get your YouTube TV up
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: and quad screen it, and then everybody locks into the
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: to the title. And it's still early enough in the
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: year where people are gonna be gonna be on it.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: And yeah, I love it, even though it's a can't
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: lose situation. I like the the ladder of that of
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: being able to beat the brakes off them and then say, yeah,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: we're we are gonna be we are those dudes this year.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah we gonna be a problem this year. I like that. Yeah,
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: for sure.
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: I don't.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: I don't necessarily think about it. Can't lose, but I
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: do because it's a conference opponent, and and it really
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: speaks to the name of the I named the episode
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: because this schedule does have number one see vibes. To
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: me now as we go through it, why do I
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: have number one seed vibes? It's because number one. Obviously,
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: it's the only thing the Buffalo Bills have not accomplished.
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: We talked about that last season, We've talked about it
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: in other seasons as well. The only thing the Buffalo
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: Bills have not accomplished is getting that number one seed.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: It is really important, in my opinion. I think for attrition.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: I think for just the fact you win one game
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: and you're you're in the title game, You're in your
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: conference sidle game. I think that you really can't overstate that.
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: We have seen it play out with injuries against Pittsburg.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: We've seen it play out with other injuries as well.
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: Throughout our runs that you know you can get dinged
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: up and come into the next game even though you
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: get a win and you're not the same team. So
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: I'm really really excited. I don't think that it's a
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: game that you want to give away, but you're absolutely right.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: There's a ways to twist it and turn it where Okay,
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: we can still stay optimistic if we do come out
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: with a loss. Now we'll give our predictions at the
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: end of the episode. Week two DT on the road
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: at the Jets. That is one of those rare Sunday
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: one o'clock games at MetLife against I guess the revamped
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: New York Jets. They clean house, they bring it Aaron Glenn.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: He takes no shit. He tells Aaron Rodgers where he
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: could stick it. After taking a MAKINGHI get on the
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: plane to fire which is which is pretty epic, and
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: they've got Justin Fields and I guess they feel a
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: little bit better about themselves in respects to the structure
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: and the quote unquote culture of their locker room and
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: their organization. But I don't think they're on the Bills
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: level quite yet. But it should be a nice till
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: the first AFC East opponent we two.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean justin Fields is about as scary as
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know, I can't even make a comparison, but
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: that's a good be two matchup. Rolling in again, win
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: or lose, you're gonna see a rolling Bills team. They're
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: gonna be pissed off or they're gonna be ready to rock.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: And that typical one o'clock met life slate that's got
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: forty seven points written all over.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: I love it. I love it. Week three, the Bills
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: back at home, another primetime game that's gonna be right
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: after that Sunday one o'clock game. It's gonna be a
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: Thursday night again under the lights. Get used to it,
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: Bills of Mafia. I know you're starting to get used
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: to it, for sure, under the lights, Thursday night football,
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: the Dolphins in town. I like the fact that you know,
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: we're not going to Miami because it's always hot as hell.
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: Right around now, right around man, excuse me, in September.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: So you know, we saw what that was with that
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: Digsit game, with the ivs and stuff like that, players
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: dropping like flies. I like the fact that it's here.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, you get a chance to go down South
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: later in the year DT. I mean, Josh Allen is
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: the Dolphins daddy. I know that it gets old. I
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: know that we kind of.
• 17:29
  Speaker 5: Ride and rag people, especially on Twitter Bills Twitter.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: We are relentless against the Dolphins fans and all that
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: fins up shit. But I mean the facts of the facts,
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: the Dolphins struggle against Josh Allen.
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: There's no way to really sugarcoat it.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: Now. They give us good games. They have given us
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: some good games, you know, every now and then they
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: get blown out, for sure, but they do give us
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: some stiff games. But DT, I mean, it's it's week three.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: Like you said, all the energy is high. I can't
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: imagine what it would be like if you're two and
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: oh coming into that game. The Bills, I think they
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: know what's ahead of them. I think that they understand
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: the opportunity that they have with the schedule that we're
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: getting ready to go over. There are some one of
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: the game at the beginning. This is one that you
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: don't want to drop. This team is still learning finding themselves.
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: Aaron Glenn, the first time coach. I expect the Bills
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: to be ready for this game under the lights.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, last year we played them Thursday, night Week two.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: You know, right out of the gate, we went down
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: Miami and that was a little, you know, a little
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: nerve wracking the fact that hey, Miami's good like they've been,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: they've been building up, they're they're gonna be good. If
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: we go down there, it's it's kind of a toss
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: up game. Go down and beat the brakes off and
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen does the thing. This is gonna be a
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: tough one for Miami to come in and win. No
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: matter really what happens in the first two weeks. I think,
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: you know, still gonna be good. Weather still, the Mafia
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: is still gonna be hot, hot and wild in that
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: and that Thursday night football. This might be that first
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: rivalry jersey game. We might see a jersey you've never
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: seen before in the in the final year of the
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: ralph and you know, getting ready for that matchup. It's
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: gonna be a tough one for the Fins to come
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: up here and win. People, you know, for Yeah, we've
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: been busting on the Dolphins and talking shit, but they
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: was a time they beat us twenty times in a row.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: Rob was twenty in a row. The Bills took it
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: and so we we still got a lot left to
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: give to get up to twenty in rows, and you know,
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: so I don't. I don't feel bad at anybody for
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: that lives down in South Beach and is in his
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: bitching that we're we're coming after him, and Josh Allen
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: hangs it on him every week. That's gonna be a
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: tough one for the Dolphins to come up I like
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: kind of how that's set up and this point of
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: the year we should be fresh.
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: It gives me like last year Monday Night Jaguars.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Vibes that type of you know, that type of point
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: in the season where you should have all the kinks
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: and rust out and it should be full force. And yeah,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: that's gonna be a tough one for the Dolphins to
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: come up here and compete in.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I can't imagine, you know, because of the fact
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: that I mean just it's so early in the season,
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: your first uh you know, Thursday night game. I know
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: we had a primetime game obviously to start the year,
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: but uh, it's just it's a situation where I just don't.
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: I just don't until Tua can do it, uh and
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: does it. You know, I'm just not gonna see now again.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: I do give them credit because they have given us
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: some stiff games. But Josh Allen is the daddy. I mean,
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: we we we run that team right now and until
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: they could do it, you know, I just I just
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: don't have much faith in it. So we'll have to
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: I'll have they'll have to actually prove it before I
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: believe it. Now. Week four, one of the rare ones
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: DT a Sunday one o'clock game at the Ralph. Get
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: a chance to get your tailgate out early, get a
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: chance to smell that crisp, cool fall air. It's still
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: gonna be nice and early in the fall in September,
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: so you still got to get those summer vibes a
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: little bit. Bill's Saints one o'clock here at the Ralph.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: And one of the things that stuck out to me
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: was that, obviously the news that just came down recently,
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: Derek Carr, I've respected his game and respected his career,
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: retires abruptly last week basically based on that torn labor
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: man his shoulder. I guess you know, he's made two
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: hundred million dollars I heard in his career. So it's
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: a situation where you know, you can't blame the man
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: for cashing out, but he's gone. You'd either got Tyler
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: Shuck I guess for the Louisville twenty six year old
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: guy who's been all around college football or Spencer Rattler.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: It doesn't make me feel any different regardless of what
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: quarterback you put under center. Sean mcdermoty eats up young
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: quarterbacks and I expect nothing different.
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, one o'clock.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: This is the bring your mom to the game, Bring
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: your cousins, bring, bring your aunt and uncles who aren't
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: from here.
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: To the game.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: You know, should be a nice cheaper ticket one o'clock.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of the you know, the
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: diehards and main season ticket holders will hit the first
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: two night games of the year and then kind of
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: let this one o'clock one, you know, chill for a while.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: So this is a get the family involved game, nothing
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: too crazy. Maybe bring the kids. It'll you know, there's
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: not gonna be any crazy Saints fans there making it
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: an unhabitable atmosphere or anything like that or hostile. So yeah,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: nice lighthearted one o'clock game. I'm sure the spread will
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: be double digits at that point, and you know, bring
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: bring the mob bring the family ticket easy, enjoy, enjoy
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: a few hot dogs, and get in there for a
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: one o'clock.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, I love it. I love it, he said, Bring
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: the grandma's, bring the bombs, bring the kids. That's what's up.
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: I do like that because you're absolutely right. Saints fans
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: not really in Buffalo that much. My cousin is a
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: Saints fan. Wein and him go back and forth a
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: little bit, but yeah, it should be some smooth sailing
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: for sure. Now you don't want to obviously chalk up
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: all the wins or say that any opponent can't beat
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: another opponent, but young quarterback, whether it be a rookie
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: or Spencer Ratler, I'm just not too worried about it. Now.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: The next week, you're absolutely right, DT, because you got
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: to get right back on the saddle Bills. It's crazy
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: because we got what four out of five games at
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: home to start the season. It is Sunday Night football
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: against the Patriots and DT. It's funny because, you know,
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: two Sunday night games to start the year, and the
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: Patriots are kind of getting a little bit of love
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: because of the fact that they you know, they kicked
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: out you know, Mayo and they bring in Rabel, one
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: of their boys, one of their own, and he's you know,
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: set in the culture and all that other stuff, and
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: he's one of the Patriot Way guys. Obviously Brady's teammate
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: and loved by Craft. I will give them respect because
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: of the fact that I do think that drape May
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: could play. They call him a little you know, Josh
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: Allen Jr. What the case may be, and I do.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: I think the Brable is a good coach, you know,
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: just you know, flat, flat, up and down. I think
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: he's a good coach. I don't know if they're ready
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: for the next step. Obviously they've got Stefan Diggs. We
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: don't need to talk about him tonight, but that is
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: the Stepan Biggs revenge game in a certain way. Mac
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: Collins way back in the building, listen, I when they
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: it's kind of like the kind of like the Dolphins
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: when they when they arrive and they start knocking at
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: our door. Then I'll be, you know, considering answering the door.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: For now, I'm still kind of overlooking them. I do
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: respect Drake May, I do respect Brabel. I think they
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: might be a year away, but I guess Vegas and
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: a lot of people are thinking that they're ready to
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: they're ready to go. So I don't. I don't know.
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: I don't know if I buy it quite yet. I
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: think it maybe a year early.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're they're gonna be better.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, we had we had our we had our
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: shot of you know, once Brady left, we had our
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: five six year span of complete dominance. And then you know,
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: they're gonna be creeping back and we got to be
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: ready for that. That's just the cycle of the NFL.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: But the way this kind of tease up to me
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: is like the Dolphins a few years ago, they just
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: had a ton of cap room. They buy, they buy
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: their roster, and it just doesn't They're gonna have some
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: studs out of this, But then there's gonna be some
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: people they overpaid for, and there's gonna be cap casualties
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: in a few years.
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: And you know.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: It's not just because they spend a ton of money
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: doesn't just make them sit, you know, an All Star
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: team by any means, Drake may still have to develop.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: And I like this matchup on the Sunday night. I'd
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: be a lot more nervous about this matchup if it
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: was just your regular one o'clock game where you know,
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: this team that might gain this younger team might gain
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: some confidence in the early part of the year, they
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: come in and catch you on like a you catch
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: you in a lowell, catch you with some loll energy.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: But coming into prime time at the Ralph, it's gonna
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: be again similar to the Dolphins game in Week three,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: just tough for them to get up and go against
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: this crowd and go against Josh Allen in primetime, firing
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: on all cylinders. Even if they are kind of on
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: the come up, I don't think they're ready for the
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: lights yet. And this I would be a lot more
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: nervous about this game if it was in the you know,
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: just your normal one o'clock. I think this the Sunday
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: night factor kind of solidifies that, yes, they might be better,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: but they're not under the lights yet.
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: We're under the lights. They're not under the lights.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: And come in and you know, take care of a
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: team that just isn't there yet.
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know. And and to that point, d T
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: the last time they played at the Route, we weren't trying,
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: So let's not let's not you know, bloss over that
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: the last time they played at the route.
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: We were not trying to win that game.
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: So it's a situation where it wasn't that true that
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: that last game was was he right?
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: No?
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: It was it was okay.
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: Well, but either way, last night they've seen like.
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: Two weeks before that.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: In the Rauf it was like they played them twice
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: in three weeks or something, okay.
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: And they got down.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: They were down, like the Bills were down fourteen nothing
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: and had to like, okay, let's play now, and came
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: back and do that. So if you're if you're a hey,
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: let's let's play now. You know, down fourteen nothing, we
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: can come back and win with the ease.
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: You're not. You're not six months later a powerhouse that's
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: going to beat us on Sunday night. That's how I'm
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: looking at it.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: I like it. I like it. We'll see that a
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: lot of people are high on the Patriots and we'll
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: see what this looks like. I do like, like I said,
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: Drake May and I'll keep my eye on that because
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: I do respect for Abel now and again, like is the.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: Stefon Diggs revenge game or Mac Collins revenge game that's
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: worth the Sunday night Like that's what they're putting on
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: Sunday Night Or is it more Drake May's coming into
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: a into a better you know, NFL quarterback.
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: They got some studs on defense, now, you know.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Or is it like, oh, the Stephan Diggs revenge Stefan
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: Diggs two years are moved off in a cl like
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: that's not like he's putting up a thousand yards and
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: like it's like a big time matchup anymore as it
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: was last year in Houston. I thought that was a
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: lot more had to head. So you know, what, what
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: do you think, Rob, Is it just Drake me? I
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: think I think it's I think it's Stephan Digg's revenge
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: match up everyone.
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I don't.
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: I don't put too much credence of that because you know, now,
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: I do think that they move this game later in
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: the season. They could have easily had it week two
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: and they made the Jets game, you know, our first
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: divisional game.
• 27:03
  Speaker 5: They could easily made it week two. I think that
• 27:05
  Speaker 5: they want Steph to play.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: You know, he's coming back off that ACL, So I
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: think that they want that drama. The NFL love storylines
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: and that type of thing, and obviously they want to
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: get the crowd and reaction. How's the crowd going to
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: react to fourteen coming back into the house that type
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: of thing. So I do think that plays a factor.
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: I think it's more May and Rabel. I think that they,
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: you know, the NFL respects them. They respect Rabel what
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: he's did at Tennessee. I mean, he made Tennessee, which
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: was a mediocre, you know, organization pretty much outside of
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: their super Bowl run with Aaron McNair back in the
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: day when they beat us in the music community, real crow,
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: they've been just kind of average, run of the mill
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: type of team. He made them a pretty good team.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: I think they had the one seed. Got back to
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: the way that this episode's name, they had the one
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: seed that one year and then shit on themselves. So
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: to me, I think it's more just respect for Rabel,
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: the affinity for Drake May, seeing him as an up
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: and comer, and then yes, you can sprinkle in the
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: you know, the storylines of Stefan Diggs. But I don't
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: think that they would have played this game earlier in
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: the year because of the fear that Diggs wouldn't be there.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: They like, they like having that extra dynamic. It's just
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: another storyline that they can add on to it. So
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: it'll be interesting to see Week six DT back to primetime.
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: I think this is the first Monday night football doubleheader
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: the Bills will be a part of it. They head
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: down to Georgia to the Peach State to take on
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: the Falcons. And you know what's funny about that game.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: I was listening to WGR you always listened, and Howard
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: Simon was on there picking the Bills, and then he
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: picks Atlanta to win that game. You know, as before
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: we do our predictions at the end of the show,
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: there are going to be some games.
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: I don't I'm not looking at the schedule.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: I'm not Justice General who's saying, you know, seventeen tozer
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: and I know you were joking about that in the
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: beginning of the show. I expect some losses. You don't
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: know exactly where they're going to be, and there are
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: always going to be like what the hell like that
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Jacksonville lost or what happened that day? Listen going down
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: to Atlanta. I think that the Buffalo Bills heading into
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: the bye week know what they have ahead of them
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: because the schedule is starting to get harder, and we'll
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: go over that, I think that they stay focused and
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: listen in It's Atlanta team a lot to like in
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: respects to offense and their weapons and Panis and Drake
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: London and uh, what's the what's the b Jon Robinson.
• 29:03
  Speaker 5: And Pitts who still really hasn't popped.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: I know that he was supposed to be a unicorn
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: and he still hasn't done much in the league. But
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: it's a situation where they've got the offensive weapons, their
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: defensive shit DT. So I just even if it's got
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: to be a shoeout somehow and on our defense is
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: still catching up, I expect good things for the Bills
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: going down to Atlanta.
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this is one that like in the back.
• 29:24
  Speaker 5: Of your head, it's like, oh it could yeah, and
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: one I.
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: Like, it's the seven fifteen. At least it's not the
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: eight thirty.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: So even though it's a night game, y'all, you know,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: y'all can be okay at work on Tuesday because it's
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: a seven to fifteen target the the This would be
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: a good like, Oh, I've never been to Atlanta other
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: than through the airport. The stadium looks cool. This would
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: be a good trip. But this is also a game
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: that just gets pushed away because like there's a hundred
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: other games you'd rather go to. It'd be cool to
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: go to Atlanta and get down there, but there's a
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: lot of other games, as we'll get into you know tonight,
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: that we'd rather go, you know, on the a waste light.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: So it's kind of like a fake good game, you know,
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: like it's a big city, a big market, but you know,
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: one of those games you really just got to go
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: take care of business on seven to fifteen Monday night. Yes,
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: a good roster offensively, but nobody defensively, and then we're
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: going to find the.
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: Holes to that.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: So it could be one of those weird trap games,
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: as Howard said, a little NFC loss early, but hey,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: if it is not too big a deal, if it's
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: a win, you're in kind of this stack model going
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: into the bye So I will take it. It'd be
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: nice to go down We'll have to wait another eight
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: years to go down to Atlanta. Maybe we put it
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: on the docket for what are we in Nickel City
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: season fifteen at that point, But whatever it is, we'll
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: take it.
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: We'll take it.
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll take it. The Bills go into the bye
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: week after visiting the Falcons and again the bye week's
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: a little bit earlier this year Bill's Mafia. But you know,
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: it is what it is. When I comes to the
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: bye week, I always would prefer it later. I know
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: that the Bills do as well. We can see that
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: by their actions. I know that after the London trip
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: they know elected to they have the choice to take
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: them bye week.
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: They said no, Let's get it later in the year.
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: So obviously you want that just because of the math
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: you're playing all those games. You want is much opportunity
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: to get healthy before the games really start to matter
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: in respects of the playoffs. But it is as it is.
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: You can't really pick your bye week in that respect,
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: so it is what it is. You get some rest
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: now as we transition tonight to the second half of
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: the slate post bye week. Tonight's episode, it's presented by
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: twenty six Shirts here on Buffalo fan Base, the official

• 31:52
  Speaker 3: that you did now, DT, as we begin to transition,
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: I'm just rubbing my hands together because down here, Charlotte,
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: there is now.
• 32:02
  Speaker 5: It's not even, it's not hype, it's not hyperbole.
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: DT. I have a car that has bills all over it.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: I wear billshit every day, you know, like not even
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: almost pretty much every day I have something that has
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: bills on it. My house has bills all over it.
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: Night games, I have the Zuba lights that you saw.
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: I'll put the Zuba lights on the house to be
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: shining on from the projector DT, I will see. I
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: see buffalo bills every day on another car driving to
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: work or something like that. And then if I'm in
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: a if I'm in a place and it's twice three,
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: four times a week, somebody's hit me up with a
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: go bills. As I'm in the gas station or something
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: like that. I've got Bill's clothes on, and I mean
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: I get it all the time. When I tell you
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: the mafia is deep down here in Charlotte, I promise
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: you Bill's Mafia.
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: I am not being hyperbolic. The Bills Mafia.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: We are so deep down there that we have three
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: different Bills Backer bars. There's one by my house als
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: that I really enjoy. There's another one called Tavern on
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: the Tracks that I used to go to pre kids
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: when I first moved down to Charlotte in two thousand
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: and six. That it's a crazy atmosphere. I think the
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: guys are from the PW or something like that, and
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: they run this bar Tabern on the Tracks right in Uptown,
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: minutes away from all the big buildings, and I mean
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: it is raucous in there. I used to go. I
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: used to go wild and crazy in that place. And
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: then there's another one on the outskirts DT. You want
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: to talk about Miami takeover, I don't think it can
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: even compare. Now. Yes, obviously Miami. We did out all
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: the snowbirds down there. I know your family will talk
• 33:27

• 37:42
  Speaker 3: respect with the with the Kings since the you know,
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: the the demorw Hamlet game. So it'll it'll be a
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: lot of fun for sure. And they're they're really excited them.
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: Nate already asked me, like, are we going to the games?
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: Of course we're going to the game. They were coming.
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: I said, of course you're going to the game. They well,
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So we we can't wait.
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: We'll definitely hope you. We're gonna show you a great time.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: You always like you said, you always host met at
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: the Bachelor padd at three thirty Len. Then I got
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: you man, eleven two four five, I got you. We
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: got your better man. We're gonna show you all about it.
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: Definitely get down here on Friday. So we can we
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: can frolick around and then, like I said, Saturday could
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: be a chill day where we move around the city
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: a little bit and it's gonna be a lot of fun.
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: I cannot wait. It's gonna be a takeover unlike anything
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: I think Bill Mafia has really seen other than to
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: rival those Dolphins games.
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: Now, good time, what's that late late October? So it's
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: gonna be real.
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: Good October twenty six yeap October twenty.
• 38:30
  Speaker 4: Sixth otherwise probably seventy five.
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's gonna be Yeah, it's beauty. I mean it's
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: hot around here all the time, all the way up
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: until pretty much November down here, so it's gonna be
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: really nice. Now. Week nine, this is where things start
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: to get not even dicey. One of the things that
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: I know when we were talking pre show DT is
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: the way that they spread out the quote unquote Marquee games,
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: some of the toughest opponents on the Bills twenty twenty
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: five schedule are spread out perfectly. You couldn't even ask
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: for it any better. We started out with that juggernaut,
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: like we talked about against the Ravens. You've got the
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: Chiefs here. Week nine Bills Chiefs at the Ralph for
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: twenty five. Again, we talked about that four twenty five
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: prime time little afternoon slot DT. I don't want to
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: say that I don't care because of the fact that,
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean, I know I care, but
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: it's it's I've got those vibes of last year where
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: I didn't care if we won or lost last year
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: in the regular season because I knew what the real
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: game was, should we meet.
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: I knew that chances are we would meet.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: And then, like I already talked about how it was
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: more nervous about Baltimore the week before and how confident
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: I was for the AFC Championship game. I don't, I mean, whatever, man, whatever,
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: let come to the Ralph. I don't even like that's
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: not even a game necessarily that I don't even know
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: if I want to go to.
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: We might sell those tickets back, mate, Like, yeah, I.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: Think I think that we see we look at this
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: as a dollar signs game.
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: It's a dollars signs game.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: We get we get triple face value for these seats,
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: and we.
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: You know, we sell it off.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: And last year there was the same debate, Like I mean,
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: I hope we win, right, I hope we win. I'm
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: not gonna say I hope you lose or I don't care.
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna watch it because we are going to
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: watch it. And that game was wild last year, you know,
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: with Josh Allen on that fourth down run, that was
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: the highlight.
• 40:13
  Speaker 4: That the highlight of the year.
• 40:16
  Speaker 5: Later the year's got a tattoo the other day of it.
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, back, so.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: There is some you know, it's always good matchup when
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: fifteen comes to town. It seems like we got their
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: number in the regular season. Like you said, it is
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: what it is. Let's look at it as dollars signs.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: It's a four to twenty five start. It would probably,
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: you know, it'd be a good one to kind of
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: take off because we'll be we'll be doing it all
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: in Charlotte the week before, so this would be a
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: good one to kind of just kick the feed up
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: in and uh, you know, let's let's make some money
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: back on this one. There's gonna be a good litmus
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: test after that kind of soft part of the schedule
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: to see if you're still you know, you're still ready
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: to go.
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, I mean no, they're going to provide the
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: test we always we obviously know four straight wins against
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: the Chiefs in the regular season. Obviously things have not
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: worked out in the postseason, so we don't need to
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: go over that again. We've done at nauseum. But again
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: it's the Chiefs, it's the Bills, CBS, Nansen Romo. They'll
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: be there at the Ralph last time at the Ralph
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: that this matchup will be happening. Maybe we'll see if
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: we get that number one seed, maybe they have to
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: come back to us another time, so we'll see how
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: it works out. But I like that vibes of a
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: dollar side game. That makes me laugh because as a
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: season ticket holder living down here Charlotte again thirteen hundred
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: miles round trip, just coming off the Panther week, Like,
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: I don't have anything to prove to anyone. The Buffalo
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: Bill's already have my money. I don't know. I probably
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: would just want to set this one out and watch
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: at home and just relax with the babies. So I
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: don't know, we'll see. It's subject to change, but it's
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: looking like a dollar side game. I like that. I
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: like the way you describe that. The next week, Week ten,
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: the Bills go down for their annual trip down to
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: South Beach Week ten. It's a one o'clock game against
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: the Dolphins and DT It's funny because that's the snowbird game,
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: that's the original, you know, takeover game. You know, Charlotte
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: is gonna throw a monkey wrench in at this year.
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: But that's the game that a lot of people like
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: to go away for. Get down, get out of the cold.
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: It's already cold by November ninth and Buffalo pretty much
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: you're getting ready to brace for winter coming. So I
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: expect to see Bill's Mafia in full force as always
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: down to South Beach. But Bill's Dolphins we own them.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: We'll see how it goes. But other than that, I mean,
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: nothing special about that game in respects to any other
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: Marque matchups. Obviously, things that happened earlier in the season
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: will let us know if that's really an important game.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: But at first, blush, it's just another trip down to
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: our second home.
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: Easy easy flight, snowbirds around elbow room, fill it up.
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: It's going to be a comfortable.
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: This is another one like not this is a lot
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: more you know, level to it than the Atlanta game.
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: Like I was talking about how all would always be
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: cool to go down to Atlanta. I always like to
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: go down. I would like to get down to Miami.
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: I love Miami. I love that vibe, you know, the
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: silk shirt Rick Ross vibe down there. I want to
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: get down and you know, really see a game down there.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: But it's just one of those years where you know,
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: when Charlotte come up and a few other you know,
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: big big games at home, it's just probably not the
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: year to go down. But a lot of people are
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: already planning it. It's on people's bucket list. It happens
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: every year, so that's the good beauty of it.
• 43:09
  Speaker 4: You can just keep planning for it and keep planning
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: for it.
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: So I actually eat a good type of vibe to
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: be in whether whatever happens with that Chiefs game the
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: week before, you know what kind of a get back
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: on track game, or just continue to roll and Josh
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: Allen be their daddy. So we'll show out Elbow Room
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: will be popping second home Snowbird game.
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: I like it. I like it too, I do. Now
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: we stay with the Florida theme. Now we won't be
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: in Florida, but we'll be back at the Ralph Week
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: eleven one o'clock hosting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, sneaky team.
• 43:41
  Speaker 5: When we do our predictions, I'll put.
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: It out there now. This is one that I would
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: be worried about because of the fact that just how
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: it's sandwiched in between some other games that we're getting
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: ready to talk about. Week eleven, Bills will host the Buccaneers.
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: Baker Mayfield can play. I know that there's a lot
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: of consternation about him and his attitude and stuff like that.
• 43:59
  Speaker 3: In Cleveland, Gay up on him. I think Cleveland pulled
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: the plug too early. They are clearly still looking for
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: their guy. With the quarterback room of I've never even
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: seen a quarterback room with more guys forty five yeah,
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: forty five defensive tour drafted, and then they drafted Gabriel
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: before that, and all that other garbage that got Flacco
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: old ass in there, then Kenny Pickett for some odd reason.
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: It's just a weird quarterback room. I think they pulled
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: the plug on on Baker too early. I think I
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: think he can play, man. I think it's legit, not
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: top five, but he's he's more than he's more than serviceable.
• 44:30
  Speaker 4: I think he's more than serviceable touchdown. Mike never not
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: have a thousand yards, even had to.
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: Hurt as an old man basically, and still you know,
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: kind of easily got at them. They had to force
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: him a thirteen yard pass to get it, but still
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: had one thousand yards. Last year, you know, Chris Godwin
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: is no slouch. They just drafted a BUCA from uh
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: Ohio State. It was, you know, going to be one
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: of the highly towered receivers in the draft, Baker Mayfield.
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: A couple of years ago, the Bills host the Bucks
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: in a must win Thursday matchup when they were kind
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: of on a skid there a little bit, and it
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: was a must win and they're a held mary away
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: from losing that one, you know, at home on Thursday night.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: So never taking the Bucks. Lately, their rosters stout. They
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: got some good, good players in there. They got my
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: boy I wanted from Florida, that the big defensive lineman.
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I saw him.
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: I saw him and Vitaveya.
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, who knows if he's making the team, but
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: if they both are in the middle there, that's like
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: a thousand pounds of them in the eight gap.
• 45:29
  Speaker 4: You know. So no, no slav squad. I have a
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: lot of respect.
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: I was calling for Baker Mayfield to come to the
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills until he went one overall and we picked
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen. Obviously, I'm happy how it worked out, but
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: respect to the Bucks, respect to Tampa Bay, and that's
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: that's It's a tough matchup.
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is a tough matchup. We'll see how the
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: season goes. Like I said before, there's always a game
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: that you're wondering, Like, man, I didn't see that one
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: coming Bills, Mamfie. You should, you should pay attention, just
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: pay attention to them. I know that they play in
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: a shitty division in the AFC, the NFC South, but
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: I think Baker can plain. I think the legit I like,
• 46:00
  Speaker 3: I like Todd Bowles will look to mess up a game.
• 46:03
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: We've seen that many times over the years. It's even
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: last year, how they handle Kansas City or whatever the
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: case like, So listen, I understand that their coaching is
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: not the best, but I do think that Baker can play.
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: Next week Week twelve, as we begin to wrap up
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: tonight and get our predictions Week twelve, it should be
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: a little bit of a payback game that week I
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: should play the payback music because Josh Allen plays his
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: worst game as a Buffalo Bill in Houston.
• 46:29
  Speaker 5: We go back to the scene of the crime.
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: It is a Thursday night game, the second Thursday night
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: game for the Bills at home at Houston. Excuse me
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: on the road back to the scene of the crime
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: at Energy Stadium, Texans Bills Thursday Night Football DT right
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: after the Bucks.
• 46:43
  Speaker 4: Talk about owing them one.
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: We had this last year.
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: I you know, I said again Week three going against
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars. How Josh Allen Odham won and damn does
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: he owe the Texans even more? You know, coming from
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: his rookie season. He gets hurt in blow was out
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: his shoulder and the only time he's ever missed games
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: is because the Texans take him out his rookie year.
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: Then they go back in the playoffs up sixteen nothing
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: sugar high. Josh, he's flinting it over his head or
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: whatever the hell he was doing, you know, And then
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: then we go down to the literally last year, his
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: worst performance nine for thirty one.
• 47:19
  Speaker 4: Bro got knocked out cold and never because.
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: But you know, just just talk about owing them one
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: and all the hype and you know, c. J.
• 47:30
  Speaker 4: Stroud's been a lot more quiet this year.
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: I had a lot of qualms with him last offseason
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: of having a good rookie year and then kind of
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: acting like he had the NFL figured out and they
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: were okay, but definitely, yeah, they were riddled with injury.
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: So I can't be too you know, critical of him
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: and say they were bad. They're a good roster. Dimiko
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: Ryans is a you know, great young, great young coach
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: getting them rolling. But talk about a payback game. You
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: said it best, Rob who owes more one than seventeen
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: ows Texans something.
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a bad That was a bad game.
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: And we you know, we obviously dissected that and the
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: last sequence and got on McDermott about his approach and
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: you know, they're just tossing up bombs when they really
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: just tried to need to get a first down and
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: get some a little bit of space. We don't need
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: to rehash all that, but that's they they owe. They
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: definitely owe Houston one for sure, So I'll be really
• 48:17
  Speaker 3: excited to see that. Now. The Bills in this little
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: stretch it started with Week ten at Miami for the
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: Snowbirds game. We've got three out of four on the road,
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: they go back on the road. Now there's not a
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: three game back to back to back trip on the road,
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: but there is that two back to back right there.
• 48:33
  Speaker 5: Three out of four they go back on the road
• 48:35
  Speaker 5: another four to.
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: Twenty five Nance Romo probably CBS game right down the street.
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: You can get to Pittsburg in three I can get
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: there in three hours flat as fast as I drive
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: anytime I'm driving back up to Charlotte. When I get
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: to Pittsburgh, I'm like, all right, I'm almost home. I
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: just need to get to Erie and I'm almost home.
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: Bill Steelers four twenty five in Pittsburgh, Aaron Rodgers stealers. Hopefully, no,
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: hopefully it's Mason Rudolph.
• 49:03
  Speaker 4: Right well, yeah, or or Duck Hodges.
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: Oh my goodness. What do you think about that? The Steelers,
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: They they they they're defensive minded and Mike Tomlin is
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: always gonna have that team competitive. Man.
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: They're they're always gonna be in the near a winning record, though,
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: rop you know, they're always near a winning record. I
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: was surprised they got rid of George Pickens. They didn't
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: see how that kind of at least tried out with
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: you know with Pickens and DK Metcalf but still no quarterback.
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: You know, they build up the trenches. Tough AFC matchup.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: Steelers Nation is loud, they're they're ready to go with
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: the terrible towels. It was a fun I went down
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: there for two was it three years ago? When they
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: clinched the playoffs on Sunday night? They flexed it to
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: Sunday night and they clinched the playoffs against the Steelers.
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: Good atmosphere kind of you know, you're not the mafia
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: is down there, but the Steelers out number you. They're
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: they're they're ready to rock down there. Uh so a
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: good city. I love Pittsburgh, man, It's one of my
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: favorite cities to go to. It's set up awesome, the
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: the statem I'm right on the river there. Maybe sneak
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: down there. It's not something you got to take off
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: a ton of days to work for. Probably not too expensive.
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: It'd be a decent game to sneak down there for.
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: So we'll see good AFC matchup late in the year.
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: I think, depending on you know, how some it's not
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: a must win, but it might be one that you
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: gotta get if you drop a few of those you
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: know questionable or you know, a Chiefs game or something
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: like that beforehand.
• 50:23
  Speaker 4: This might be one.
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: Yet you really gotta get which I like that focus
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: late in the year for twenty five. Let's see what
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: the what the Steelers nation can do. I see lights, terrible.
• 50:33
  Speaker 5: Towels, Yeah, the terrible towels.
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll be interesting. I mean they you know, like
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: I said, they play great defense. I don't know who
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: is leading their offense. I am not scared of Aaron
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: Rodgers and I'm definitely not scared of Mason Rudolph. So
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: I have no idea what they're doing at quarterback. I
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: don't know why they didn't draft one. It is what
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: it is. They can do whatever they want to do.
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: If Mike Tomlin wants to sneak into the playoffs at
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: eight and seven or what at nine and cent, like whatever,
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: ten and cent and now, it is fine, you more
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: power to you do whatever the hell you want to do.
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: You need a quarterback to compete in this league, and
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: they just don't have one.
• 51:05
  Speaker 5: Week fourteen.
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: This is it. This is this is the game I
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: have circles. This is the number one game for me.
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: DT Bills hosting the Bengals four to twenty five. We
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: heard rumors again about a day before the schedule released
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: that I think this could be Bills against Bengals Sunday
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: Night Football to kick it off, and I was really
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: excited about that one. I'm more excited that it's the
• 51:25
  Speaker 3: Ravens DT Week fourteen. This is one of those litmus
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: tests because we'll talk about it here in a minute.
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: With week that Week seventeen matchup against the Eagles DT,
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: this might be like one of your last Like, okay,
• 51:38
  Speaker 3: these are the type of teams you're getting ready to
• 51:39
  Speaker 3: play in the playoffs. These are the type of offenses
• 51:42
  Speaker 3: that you got to be able to stop. Right. That's McDermott.
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: He got all the assets that he wants for his defense.
• 51:47
  Speaker 3: You know, I stay on his ass. This is one
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: of those last potent offenses. Depending on what's on the
• 51:52
  Speaker 3: line in that Eagles game, this might this might be
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: the last test that you get before the playoffs of
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: a real, true potent offense to get you primed up
• 51:59
  Speaker 3: for the play Yeah.
• 52:01
  Speaker 5: I mean this is number one game US.
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: Rumors a week one.
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: I was loving that because the Bengals always start slow,
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: they're always owing four. You know, two and six to
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: start the year and then they start rolling and last
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: year the same deal. They start rolling a little too
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: late and Joe Burrow has what do you have, forty
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: some touchdowns or fifty touchdowns and they got two receivers.
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: They're paying thirty million bucks plus two. Uh, you know,
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: it's it's legit that that's that's probably the Chiefs game
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: is obviously a big one, but that's one where we're like, yeah, whatever,
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: you know, we gotta get them in the playoffs.
• 52:33
  Speaker 4: I'm not crying if we lose.
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: This Bengals game is going to be a real like
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: if we go and get our ass kicked, that's a
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: you know, a real reality check at that point in
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: the sea. So that's kind of what they've had the number,
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: you know, the obviously the Marw Hamlet game is one thing.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: Coming back at the playoffs, oh shit storm. But then
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: you know, last two years ago Monday Night Football, we
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: had a chance to go down there. Joe Burrow gets hurt,
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: hurts his hand, and we had a chance to go
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: down there and we just looked like shit. So this
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: Bengals team really has had our number, has had Josh
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: Allen's number. This late in the season, they're gonna be humming,
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: you know they like they always do. This is gonna
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: be this. I agree, this is probably the biggest head
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: to head of the regular season.
• 53:15
  Speaker 4: For this team.
• 53:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's the it's the number one game
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: for me. I will not miss that one. We'll be selling.
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: There will be a money game who that week. I
• 53:24
  Speaker 3: will be taking by black ass up up the seventy
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: seven to get the ninety and making sure that I'm
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: in my seat for that game because it'll be before
• 53:31
  Speaker 3: Christmas's December seventh, Week fourteen. That it doesn't it just
• 53:34
  Speaker 3: doesn't get much bigger than that. And again, I think
• 53:36
  Speaker 3: it's one of the last true big time offenses that
• 53:39
  Speaker 3: you are going to face now when it comes really
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: down the rest of the schedule of Week fifteen at
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: the Patriots at one o'clock, Week sixteen at the Brown
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: So you got two again, another two back to back
• 53:49
  Speaker 3: away games. Obviously you got to make up for all
• 53:51
  Speaker 3: those home games that we had to start the season
• 53:53
  Speaker 3: and then two home games to end the season. Now,
• 53:56
  Speaker 3: it's interesting because a lot of people were bitching on
• 53:58
  Speaker 3: WGR and stuff like that.
• 54:00
  Speaker 5: I know that's going around lately. With Brandon Bean.
• 54:03
  Speaker 3: But everybody was complaining that the Eagles game, it's too
• 54:07
  Speaker 3: late and it's not going to mean anything, and I can't.
• 54:10
  Speaker 3: I've tried to poke holes in it when I was
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: thinking about it in my head, But realistically.
• 54:15
  Speaker 5: I don't know. I don't Maybe.
• 54:17
  Speaker 3: The divisions are not both locked up, but there is
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: a chance that we have ours locked up, okay, And
• 54:24
  Speaker 3: then maybe maybe the Eagles are still battling the Commanders,
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: or maybe Dallas is surprising and it's maybe like a
• 54:28
  Speaker 3: tight three way logjam. If that's the case, there is
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: a there's a small chance that one of the other
• 54:34
  Speaker 3: teams doesn't have shit to play for, which kind of
• 54:36
  Speaker 3: takes a little bit Leusser off that game week seventeen.
• 54:39
  Speaker 3: Bill's hosting the Eagles for twenty five.
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: I think that's the main reason that we're not seeing
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: it on Christmas Day, rob Okay, I think that's the
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: main reason. I think, you know, if there wasn't those implications,
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: this is a Christmas Day game through and through too
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: cold weather, blue collar cities. You know, let's let's go
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: on Christmas and on that Friday and battle it out
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: and probably snow. But you're right, it might mean you know, nothing,
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: or might not you know, be as highly touted as
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: a week four, Week five matchup against this Eagles team,
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: so defending world champs.
• 55:14
  Speaker 4: We'll see how it goes.
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: If it is, you know, this could be a one
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: seed the episode, right, So there is opportunity for the
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: NFL still to get a hell of a game out
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: of this. But I think that the higher probability is
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: it won't mean much, and that's why it's not on Christmas.
• 55:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that it's probably unlikely that both teams
• 55:37
  Speaker 3: don't need it and they're just trotting out backups. I
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: don't think it necessarily would be that obviously name of
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: the episode one number one seed vibes. I don't know
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: necessarily what the division looks like. How many losses of
• 55:48
  Speaker 3: Kansas City have? How many losses does Baltimore have? Did
• 55:51
  Speaker 3: we beat Kansas City? Excuse me? Do we beat Cincinnati
• 55:54
  Speaker 3: a couple weeks ago? All those kind of factors will
• 55:56
  Speaker 3: come into play, especially if you're going for the one seed.
• 55:58
  Speaker 5: How all out you want to go, you know, for it.
• 56:01
  Speaker 3: If it's looking like you're two games up on Kansas
• 56:04
  Speaker 3: City and you've got a little bit of wiggle room
• 56:06
  Speaker 3: to play with where we can drop this one, they
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: can get to a game behind us, We'll still go
• 56:11
  Speaker 3: and dust the Jets in the you know, the season.
• 56:13
  Speaker 5: Finale at the rout. We're not worried about it.
• 56:15
  Speaker 3: So I kind of think about all those different factors,
• 56:17
  Speaker 3: and a lot of people were complaining about it. I
• 56:19
  Speaker 3: just I couldn't poke too many holes in it because
• 56:21
  Speaker 3: I do see some scenarios and maybe a.
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: Year too early because they're that new rule proposition, and
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: then this might not even pass because owners are kind
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: of adamant the other way. But the rule proposition of
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: reseeding the playoffs, you know, division, it's just the top
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: seven seeds by record.
• 56:37
  Speaker 4: It doesn't matter if you won your division or not.
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: Just the top seven seeds by record divisions get in
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: to the playoff. But it doesn't automatically get you the
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: four in the home game. And so that you know,
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: this might be this game might be a year too
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: early in the regard of okay, ship, we still got
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: to play. This is a meaningful game, you know, late
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: in the year that we still got to play for
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: the first seeding purpose to get that home game in
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: the playoffs, as opposed to locker and up the schedule
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: and you know you're gonna have that home game.
• 57:01
  Speaker 4: So with the division, yeah, we'll see. I hope it
• 57:03
  Speaker 4: means something.
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: I'd like to have a good game against the defending
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: champs and you know, talk about that payback situation of
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: they came in a couple of years ago and beat
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: the Brakes off us that in that kind of cold
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: rain game with Carson Wentz and then with in Philly
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: with the Kelly Greens and we're kneeing to get to
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: overtime and all that.
• 57:20
  Speaker 4: Yes, so I'd like to see it mean something.
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: I'd like to see us kind of you know, hoping
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: for that one seed and this is another good litmus
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: test to get us ready to go for the playoffs.
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: But it very well couldn't and it might be a
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: year too early. If those new rules ever get into effect.
• 57:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't ever think that they will, because the
• 57:38
  Speaker 3: divisions just mean too much and the owners are too greedy.
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: They like those home games, so there's no point of
• 57:42
  Speaker 3: having divisions if you go to that model.
• 57:44
  Speaker 5: So I don't think that you have to worry about
• 57:45
  Speaker 5: that too much.
• 57:46
  Speaker 3: I do want it to mean something, because I do
• 57:48
  Speaker 3: like to see how good we are. Always am looking
• 57:50
  Speaker 3: for opportunities to see how good we are. So I
• 57:52
  Speaker 3: would love the fact that you played the Bengals, you
• 57:54
  Speaker 3: get the Patriots, and then you get a chance to
• 57:56
  Speaker 3: play the world champs right after, and their high potent offense,
• 57:58
  Speaker 3: they love to run the bass say on, their receivers
• 58:01
  Speaker 3: are nasty. Obviously the defending champions. So I would love
• 58:04
  Speaker 3: for it to mean something because again another test, it's
• 58:07
  Speaker 3: not a conference game. Maybe it's a Super Bowl preview.
• 58:09
  Speaker 3: All that other good stuff, all those storylines will be
• 58:11
  Speaker 3: there for Super Bowl sixty. So I would love for
• 58:13
  Speaker 3: it to mean something because obviously it could give us
• 58:16
  Speaker 3: a good idea of how we're feeling about ourselves as
• 58:19
  Speaker 3: we head into the postseason, which we all expect the
• 58:21
  Speaker 3: Bills to go.
• 58:21
  Speaker 5: Now as we begin to wrap up, we will close.
• 58:24
  Speaker 3: Out the ralph right, I mean right, and you can't
• 58:27
  Speaker 3: even see it anymore behind me, but I've got the
• 58:30
  Speaker 3: poster right up above my head. Boy, I love that place,
• 58:33
  Speaker 3: DT And it's funny because I mean, they're closing with
• 58:36
  Speaker 3: the Jets. That was the first opponent they'd ever played
• 58:38
  Speaker 3: in their history, and then it was also their first
• 58:40
  Speaker 3: opponent that they played at the Ralph when they built it,
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: the house that OJ built, And I mean, I love
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: that place. DT. It is going to be a sentimental
• 58:48
  Speaker 3: day for so many members of the mafia. Obviously, we're
• 58:51
  Speaker 3: hoping that we win the division. So best case scenario,
• 58:54
  Speaker 3: we already have the division locked up, so we know
• 58:57
  Speaker 3: that we're getting play that playoff game.
• 58:59
  Speaker 5: We know we're getting another home game. We know it's
• 59:00
  Speaker 5: not the last game.
• 59:02
  Speaker 3: So you get a chance to really kick back your
• 59:03
  Speaker 3: feet and enjoy that last time Sunday. You know, who
• 59:08
  Speaker 3: knows what day it's going to be actually because it's
• 59:09
  Speaker 3: still TVD, but you know what I mean, You get
• 59:11
  Speaker 3: in that routine to probably be one o'clock game. The
• 59:12
  Speaker 3: Jets may be shitty. You get a chance to just
• 59:14
  Speaker 3: go back out to the route. If you're not playing
• 59:16
  Speaker 3: and going to the playoffs, you get a chance to
• 59:18
  Speaker 3: do it one more time.
• 59:20
  Speaker 5: And boy, I love that place. That's my home away
• 59:23
  Speaker 5: from home. I love that place.
• 59:24
  Speaker 3: I love it. I love that.
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: I mean we might if we if we got a
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: home playoff game, we show up, our seats might not
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: be there, rob people, people might be ripping them out
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: of the concrete, taking them home.
• 59:34
  Speaker 4: We take teams, so it'll be interesting. I hope that.
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: I hope the Jets walk out with a boombox in
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: front of seventeen again and uh, you know, we lay
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: it down on.
• 59:42
  Speaker 4: It's going to be historic.
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: There's gonna be a lot of tears and uh yeah,
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: it's a beautiful ending to a place and hopefully obviously
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: not the last game there. You know, we'll have a
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: few playoff games as well. But what a history.
• 59:54
  Speaker 4: The concrete goal.
• 59:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's crazy. And you know, and to see all
• 59:59
  Speaker 3: the pictures of the new stadium going up and that
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 3: I call that one, you know, high Mark because I
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 3: never called the stadium Highmark. I called the rauph. Somebody
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 3: was on Twitter like, oh, it's always rich Stadium to me,
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 3: I'm like, it's either rich Stadium or the Ralph. You know,
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 3: Rich stadiums a little bit before your time, but that's
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: what it was called for me growing up. And then yeah,
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 3: the Ralph just became synonymous. I mean, I mean that's
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 3: what I call it. It's called the Ralph. It's not
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: high Mark or New Era Field or it's the Ralph.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: And it's a place that you know, it means a
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 3: lot to a lot of people on DT in the mafia,
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 3: a lot of memories, And I always get choked up
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 3: when you tell your memories of your first game there.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 3: I remember my first game there with my dad. I
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 3: remember just so many memories. I mean us, you and I.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 3: We didn't meet at the game, but we you know,
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 3: it was a situation where you know, we saw each
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: other right at the tailgate right afterwards, so it was
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: it was just really really crazy, so many different memories.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 3: It's going to be something where a lot of people
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: have a story to tell about the Ralph and where
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: they were when it closed.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred percent. It's going to be a great
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: week of w g R and reminiscing. And I can't
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: wait for our you know, I don't know what well.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: I'm sure we'll come up with a good title, but
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: you know, the Remembering the Ralph or something like that,
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: farewell and hopefully it's a historic season to boot and
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: we open up the new stadium next year with a
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: you know, hanging that banner and and look across the
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: street and say that was fun over there.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: You know, became a lot from a child to you know,
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: through adult through in your case, through through children, through.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: You know, a lot of I know close friends that
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: have been married there, have proposed on the field there,
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: have you know, so many things.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 3: My boy Jeff was the same way he got He
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 3: didn't get married there, but we took pictures there, like
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 3: for the wedding brok after after they traded numptials, we
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 3: went to the Raufe and like I was, I was
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 3: just like I was in heaven, like just run I
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 3: ran to our.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 4: Key Jim Kelly football camp.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: It's just yeah, it's it's a beautiful la. It's a
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: good chapter, and I just hope this is a true
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: story book ending to the to uh you know, to
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: a real kind of a shitty place to be honest,
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: Like I guesst all other stadiums in the NFL, this
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: is probably by far the most plain, jade basic, you know,
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: but it but that's what means so much, and that's
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: why we love it so much, because it's not about
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: the stadium. It's about you know, it's about what's happened
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: in there and around experiences in there. So yeah, it's
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be an interesting year. I'm hoping the Bills
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: really go all out for it. And you know, it's
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: more than just a patch on their jersey, and they
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: really they really commemorate it the best way possible.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 4: I'm looking forward to it.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I am too. For sure. It's a situation where
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 3: there'll be a lot of emotions. Not sure if we'll
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 3: make it up for that game, depending on playoffs and
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 3: stuff like that, but either way I will. I'm just
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 3: gonna I'm just gonna cherish every every ride up to
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: Buffalo this year. I'm gonna be cherishing it. News to
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 3: the crew, Uh, I don't know about DT. DT could
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 3: do whatever he wants to do. I am not going
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 3: to the new stadium.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 2: I will.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 3: This will lead my last year of season tickets. I
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 3: have had season tickets in two thousand and nine. If
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 3: you ever, if you're a new listener, you can listen
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 3: to my opening of the very first episode, the intro.
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: I told my story of how I became a Bills
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 3: fan and how I became a season ticket holder. It
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 3: was just basically because I couldn't stand not being without
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 3: my Bills. After I moved down here, it was three years,
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 3: that's all it took. I moved down to Charlotte in
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: six by nine, I was scratching like a like a
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 3: crack addict, and I had.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 5: To get season tickets. It was the fiftieth anniversary year.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 3: And I have been a season ticket holder every single
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 3: year except for the years that my children were born.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 3: I mean every year. And driving up from Charlotte to Buffalo,
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 3: people always like You're like, you drive, you drive all
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 3: the way. I'm like, yeah, it's not that bad. I

  Speaker 3: it this year. I'm gonna I'm gonna take my time
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 3: in respects to enjoying all of it, enjoying the mountains,
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 3: the Blue Ridge mountains that you saw the other day
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 3: when you were driving down your parents. I'm gonna, I'm
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 3: gonna enjoy all of it. I'm gonna enjoy the tailgates
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 3: a little bit more because I won't be going to
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 3: the Ralph to the New Ralph. I will be, you know,
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 3: do the season opener or something like that, and then
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 3: after that, I'll just watch. I'll be a regular out
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 3: of town fan because not doing the PSLs DT it's
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 3: not for me. It's becoming really corporate. I hope that
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 3: they don't price out our fan base with these PSLs.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 3: I heard mixing. I've heard mixed reviews on the on
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 3: the price and stuff like that. They got financing options
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 3: and stuff like that. For me, it's just I'll be
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 3: forty in the summer. It's not it's not anything I
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 3: need to continue to pursue. So this is it for me, DT,
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 3: and I can't wait to enjoy it with you this year, man,
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 3: I really can't.

  Speaker 3: We appreciate you, all right, rapid Fire. I will count
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 3: the losses Ravens go DT.

  Speaker 3: Wait oh, Jets? When when Saints? When Patriots? When Falcons
• 1:05:08

• 1:05:13
  Speaker 3: Chiefs lost, Dolphins loss, Bucks, when Texans, when Steelers, when
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 3: Bengals lost, Patriots when Browns when Eagles lost Jets when
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 3: all right, listen, thirteen and four is the hell of
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 3: a record. I no, I mean, I have I've got
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 3: I have it. I have thirteen and four. I've got
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 3: a loss to the Ravens, I've got a loss to
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 3: the Chiefs, i have a loss to the Bucks, and
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 3: I have a loss to the Bengals' count team not
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 3: needing that game.
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: Not conservative four losses. It's hard to find more than four,
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: it really is, no matter what if it's the I mean,
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: I picked some marquee teams there other than the Dolphins,
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: but like, even if it's not the marquee game, like
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: this might becational game, you know, like even looking hard
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: into the schedule's tough for me to find more than four,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: even if it's not the marquee games.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 4: Like if it's just some odd ones thirteen and four.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: Although they've been on this path every other year the
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: past h since Josh Allen's been in the League of
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: you know, the first breakout year, they go thirteen and three,
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: and then they go then they go ten and six,
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: and then then they go thirteen and four, and then
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: they go they were six and six at one point
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: and then had to win out to go eleven and
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: eleven and seven. You know, so they are kind of
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: on this back and forth, back and forth.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 4: But I don't know.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: We got the MVP, baby, we got the schedule stacked up.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: It's tough for me to find more than four, no
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: matter which way you look at it. No matter even
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: if you give lost and kind of all the good
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: teams through and drop a division game, it's still four.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 1: So thirteen and four at worst, hoping for better. Yeah,
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, the Vegas is eleven and a half on
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: the win total, so they're they're they're at twelve.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 3: So I mean, listen, they said the Bills travel the
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 3: second least amount of miles behind the Cincinnati Bengals in
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 3: the entire league. We just went over the schedule home
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 3: and away. You don't have a three game stretch of
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 3: away games. You just got a couple back to backland. Yeah, Firelence,
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 3: you go to Houston and and you know you're in
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 3: the Eastern time zone except for Houston. I just I
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 3: feel no international game. I think that this schedule lays
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 3: out so perfectly. They spread out your marquee matchups. You
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 3: got Week one, you got Week nine, you've got Week
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 3: fourteen and then seventeen, like your four biggest games are
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 3: spread out. They're not sitting on top of each other,
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 3: even like last year where you had to play some
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 3: back to back guys. I I just I think as
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 3: much shit as I talk about everybody in the direction
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 3: of the offense, I have to admit that it quote
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 3: unquote worked last year, so I have to get off
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 3: of that a little bit. I will still be watching
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 3: the offense, but if the offensive line is intact, and
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 3: we'll talk about all of that Nicol City Crew, Bills
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 3: Mafia as we get into the offseason, we'll do our
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 3: annual Offense Day Defense episode. We'll do all of that.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 3: If the offensive line is still going to block the
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 3: way that they are, if James Cook is not going
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 3: to give a stink and really takes it more personal
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 3: and just says, you know what, I'm gonna run my
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 3: ass off to get the money, whether it be from
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 3: the Bills or another team. I don't see how you
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 3: beat us too many times in less and less the
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 3: defense lessons down, and I will be watching mister McDermott
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 3: like I do every year since thirteen seconds, like a
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 3: motherfucking hawk. I'm watching them, and I'm still not over
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 3: thirteen seconds, so I'll just keep watching them.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 5: Listen, DT, I appreciate you tonight.
