00:00:01
It's been a while, um, was just streaming earlier this morning.
00:00:05
So if you join the stream earlier this morning, good to have you back.
00:00:08
Thanks for joining me.
00:00:09
And, uh, thanks for coming back here after a big when, um felt good today.
00:00:19
Um, it felt like a very productive game.
00:00:22
A very overall just bills in command.
00:00:27
They lead the entire game.
00:00:28
There was a point where it really wasn't a point where I was worried.
00:00:32
Yes, were playing the Dolphins, Not the best team.
00:00:35
But we're able to put up 37 points.
00:00:38
Um, that's the most we've had all year.
00:00:40
So that's that's a positive.
00:00:42
The offense really got going today.
00:00:44
The offense looked better than they have.
00:00:47
Ah, yet this year.
00:00:49
So that's something that you really gotta you gotta build off of for the coming weeks.
00:00:54
I mean, they're in a great spot right now, huh? They're seven and 31 of the best records that they've had in quite some time.
00:01:04
We've seen some some weak game Cem Cem week seasons from them.
00:01:08
So it's definitely going to see it's it's encouraging.
00:01:11
It's fun to watch.
00:01:13
Um so I'm gonna I'm just gonna break down everything that happened today.
00:01:18
Um, I mean, it was fun.
00:01:20
Uh, Josh out. Look great today.
00:01:22
Uh, the offensive play calling really turned around.
00:01:25
They did a great job today.
00:01:27
I think Brian table looks a lot better than he has in the past.
00:01:36
I've been I've been down on dave a lot this year.
00:01:38
I never thought that he looked great this year.
00:01:41
Um, I never thought that, and I kind of blamed him a lot for all the problems.
00:01:46
But he played a smart game today.
00:01:50
Um, he had Josh through of all 33 times and he had the bills were on 34 times.
00:01:55
So I mean, it's it's perfectly really the only complaint that I had today was special teams.
00:02:08
I guess they gave up a few few big, big grown backs from Hakeem Grant.
00:02:15
I mean, yeah, he had the kick return, so that definitely hurt.
00:02:18
I mean, if they didn't, if they would have stopped him on that kick return probably would have been 37 to 14.
00:02:24
People maybe would have said, Hey, look at that. The bills dominated.
00:02:28
Um, I the complete shutdown game that you would expect facing a Dolphins team like this.
00:02:37
So it's it was encouraging to watch today.
00:02:40
Um, it was definitely good what we needed from last week after the tough lost Thio Cleveland.
00:02:47
And then we got Denver next week.
00:02:49
So I mean, there's a lot to be excited about with this team.
00:02:52
We're sitting at 73 We go to Denver next week.
00:02:55
Um, Denver is, surprisingly, not as bad as people thought they were.
00:03:01
I guess, um, they kind of They kind of choked up big time today against Minnesota.
00:03:07
They're up, I believe 20 points at halftime, and they ended up losing 27 2 23.
00:03:13
So maybe they'll be down a little bit for next week with Brendan Allen being their head quarterback right now, their defense is strong, but I think that the bill should be able to get it done at home and move on to 83.
00:03:26
And that would be amazing because as of right now, the Bills are still sitting in that fifth wildcard spot at seven and three.
00:03:33
Um, Houston lost today, so that means that Indianapolis kind of took over the division for them.
00:03:40
So Houston and Indianapolis that kind of going back and forth, We gotta worry about Indianapolis.
00:03:45
I do think Houston will run away with that division, but Oakland is losing or the Oakland is winning right now.
00:03:52
Pittsburgh obviously lost on Thursday Night Football, and Tennessee had a bye.
00:03:56
So there's a few teams in the mix for that wild card.
00:03:59
I do think that the Bills will hold on to that.
00:04:01
That first wildcard spot.
00:04:02
Um, but overall, I mean, if you look at this game, there weren't too many things to complain about.
00:04:09
Josh Allen finished 21 for 2021 for 33 256 yards could not quite get to that 300 yard mark.
00:04:18
We've been waiting to see Josh.
00:04:20
I'll get to that 300 yard market.
00:04:21
Has not coId happened yet? So, um, But I mean, you can't complain with the game that this guy had today.
00:04:27
21 for 33 to 56 3 touchdowns, one of those touchdowns rushing.
00:04:32
Um, Alan also has six consecutive games were escort at least two touchdowns.
00:04:38
Katie, thank you very much for the thumbs up.
00:04:40
I really appreciate it.
00:04:42
Hopefully, you enjoyed the game today as much as I did.
00:04:46
Um, but yeah, Alan has six.
00:04:49
Consecutive is nothing with the court.
00:04:59
Um, he loved your nap during the game.
00:05:01
I'm sure you did.
00:05:03
Um, it was a riveting game.
00:05:05
Should have kept you awake the whole time, but that's all right.
00:05:07
Um, but I mean, like, I was saying, Brian Table had a great offensive.
00:05:13
And she loves you. High V.
00:05:15
I hope you're watching the game today, but I don't think you're I think you're at the Children's museum, so I hope you had fun.
00:05:22
Um, thanks for watching, but, um, yeah, I mean, the offensive coordinator, Brian.
00:05:28
David look great today.
00:05:29
He really kind of he turned it around.
00:05:33
He had a bad that year so far this year.
00:05:35
I was not a fan of him at all, but he had he had the bills, were on the ball 34 times, had Josh down, throw it 33 times.
00:05:41
So perfect balance right there.
00:05:43
Um and I mean, you can't speak enough at what this defense did today.
00:05:47
The Bills defense held Miami two just 23 yards rushing.
00:05:51
Um, and that's between 123 That's between five different guys.
00:05:55
That there was only 23 combined yards.
00:05:58
They're leading.
00:05:59
Rusher had nine yards today.
00:06:01
So I think that all this all this talk of the Bills run defense being one of the worst in the league.
00:06:09
Yes, they had a few bad weeks.
00:06:10
Yes, they're not facing the best team in the Dolphins, but to hold the team holed up there, the best runner to under nine yards is pretty incredible.
00:06:19
They had tailing blobs with nine yards, Hakeem Grant had seven yards and Patrick Wired had seven years as well.
00:06:26
So not one running back had more than 10 yards rushing.
00:06:29
So that's pretty incredible.
00:06:30
Andi, flip it over.
00:06:32
Devon Singletary had 15 yards, Um, or 15 carries, and he had 75 yards rushing.
00:06:38
So a good game from him.
00:06:40
I would really like to see a lot more from Devon Singletary.
00:06:44
He has not proven a whole lot to me.
00:06:46
He's had a few good God games, few good runs, but nothing too spectacular from him.
00:06:52
Um, I I really need to see a whole lot more if he's gonna be our future back our feature back going down in the future.
00:06:59
Um, and then Alan Game.
00:07:01
It's for our second leading rusher, seven carries, 56 yards and that Frank or had 11 cares for 27 years.
00:07:07
So I mean, run game wasn't really huge thing in this game.
00:07:10
But I mean, I'll tell you who was was John Brown.
00:07:13
This guy continues to prove that he was worth every single dime that we paid him in this offseason.
00:07:19
John Brown was finished with 99 catches for 100 and 37 yards and two touchdowns.
00:07:24
So, um, I'm really glad that John Brown is on this team for Josh.
00:07:29
Ah, he really kind of Is that that savior for him? The guy that he always looks for? I mean, he had 14 target targets today.
00:07:36
Ah, few drops food, bad passes.
00:07:38
But all in all, I mean, nine catches, 137 yards, two touchdowns.
00:07:42
You can't complain.
00:07:43
And I'm very glad that I started him and fantasy this week.
00:07:46
Um, and then second leading receiver was Cobra Cole Beasley for four catches, 38 yards.
00:07:52
I really like to see a whole lot more from from Colby easy this year.
00:07:56
Uh, he has not proven to be the guy that used to be when he was in Dallas, But maybe maybe he's a second half type of player.
00:08:03
Maybe you will see him come around a little more going down the stretch for the playoff push.
00:08:08
Um, Michelle, thank you very much for the 20 20 tickets and a thumbs up.
00:08:13
I really appreciate it.
00:08:15
I love you guys back in Buffalo there.
00:08:18
Um, but other than those two guys, I mean, John Brown and Cole Beasley, they They were really the only source of offense for must Dawson.
00:08:28
Knox had two catches today and that nice touchdown.
00:08:31
Um I mean, there's a nice touch down 23 yards.
00:08:34
I hit him over the middle.
00:08:35
Eso he finished two catches for 32 yards, so I mean, they got everybody really involved in the offense.
00:08:42
Tyler Kroft. We saw with the catch today.
00:08:44
He had a couple targets, But other than those guys, I mean, I'm not sold on Isaiah Mackenzie.
00:08:49
I'd really like to see them activate.
00:08:51
Do willing a lot more.
00:08:52
We saw as a Mackenzie get a lot of targets today.
00:08:55
He had six targets only had three catches.
00:08:57
But we see we saw a few times today that Josh L would try toe attempt those one on one balls where it was just drown Brown and the quarterback of the safety covering him.
00:09:08
And we would see Josh Ellen's kind of throw it up and hope that John Brown comes down to it.
00:09:13
And that's not really the type of wide receiver that John Brown is.
00:09:15
He is the type of wide receiver that will burn a burner cornerback and beat of deep downfield for 60 yards.
00:09:22
We're not going to see him go up for a one on one ball and just kind of Moslem and take it over his head. He's not.
00:09:29
He's not tall enough for that, Um, and he's not really strong enough for that.
00:09:32
But that's the type of player that Duke Williams is.
00:09:35
Duke willing to 63 That guy's a these are big beast of, ah, wide receiver.
00:09:40
Um, I mean, he loved the CFL last year in reception, so I would like to see him probably get a few more shots.
00:09:46
We saw him in the Tennessee game.
00:09:48
He had a touchdown.
00:09:49
Then we saw him for a few games after that.
00:09:52
I didn't see a whole lot of them after that.
00:09:53
But he's been inactive for a few games here, and Isaiah Mackenzie has been getting a lot of more a lot more starts, which I'm okay with seeing him in there.
00:10:02
Um, it's just He's kind of like he's like a John Brown, where he's that quick wide receiver that can, um, get a burst of speed and aero upfield and kind of break off some big yardage.
00:10:15
But we're not going to see a whole lot from from him.
00:10:18
Other in the passing game, it's usually maybe in the run game.
00:10:21
Jets sweet, kind of, Ah, those cut those types of plays, But I would love to see them kind of inactivate are inactive job.
00:10:30
So Robert Foster can't think Ah, and that, uh, put Robert Foster on the bench and start Duke Williams.
00:10:36
Duke Williams is a big wide receiver that Josh Alan can really trust.
00:10:40
I think that's what he needs.
00:10:42
Draft played a great game today.
00:10:43
He always plays kind of his best games.
00:10:45
When it comes to playing Miami, we see him two times a year, so he gets a good chance against the weaker defense, and he proved that he could do it.
00:10:53
He finished with 256 yards, like I said, but that some of the throws that he was making were pretty incredible.
00:11:00
Um, but on the flip side with the defense, the defense played good today, even though they gave up the three touchdowns they got to Ryan Fitzpatrick seven times.
00:11:11
So they sacked him seven times today, which is a season high for us.
00:11:15
That's what we need to do.
00:11:17
We need to try to do every game we might not be able to all the time, But I mean, you see Tremaine Avon's Matt Moore on all those two guys were all over the field.
00:11:25
They shared a sack. Today.
00:11:27
They have a sack Starla tool. They had a sack.
00:11:30
He had a good game as well.
00:11:31
He's kind of been the guy on the defense where a lot of fingers been pointing out for the weakness upfront to hear a good game today.
00:11:39
Ah, at Oliver had his first kind of NFL sec.
00:11:42
Um, first real one.
00:11:44
He had his first SEC against Washington.
00:11:47
It was kind of a trick play where it wasn't the quarterback and he got to the backfield.
00:11:51
But this was his first true sack, where he got some backfield got right to Ryan Fitzpatrick.
00:11:57
I think it might have been a blown block, but that's that's something else. That doesn't matter.
00:12:02
It's still counts.
00:12:04
So Jordan Phillips continues to produce this guy.
00:12:06
His seven sacks.
00:12:07
He leads the NFL, uh, for defensive tackles with sacks of the year. So yes, seven.
00:12:12
Um, Jack Lawson got in there.
00:12:14
Jerry Hughes got in there.
00:12:15
Lorenzo Alexander.
00:12:16
Those guys played a great game.
00:12:18
Cory Lujan has kind of a dumb play.
00:12:20
He had that that pass interference on Ryan's.
00:12:25
It's sorry roughing the passer on Ryan Fitzpatrick, but he you had a good game.
00:12:31
I mean, I think he's definitely helping in the run game.
00:12:33
Like I said, we held him to 23 points.
00:12:35
So are 23 rushing yards, so you can't complain.
00:12:39
Fitzpatrick did finish that 323 yards throwing, But you're gonna expect that Ryan, since Patrick's a good quarterback, he's a capable quarterback.
00:12:48
But if you're constantly getting to the quarterback and having seven sacks and shutting down the wrong game.
00:12:53
You're gonna win the game.
00:12:54
And that's exactly what happened today.
00:12:56
And that's what we need to see every week from this team.
00:12:59
Ah, we see them going up against Denver next week, So not an easy match up.
00:13:06
Ah, they've been kind of surprisingly good this year.
00:13:09
Their defense, we kind of knew was they were going to be good, but they're they're tops in the league for defense when it comes to pass defense.
00:13:16
So, um, we really need Josh Allen, too.
00:13:21
Josh has been very smart these past four weeks.
00:13:23
He hasn't had an interception.
00:13:25
He had a few fumbles, but he needs to be very smart.
00:13:28
Uh, we need our wide receivers to get more open.
00:13:31
We need them tow, find more space when it comes to Manda man, because it seems like they have a lot of trouble creating space.
00:13:37
Um, so that will be a real test test against a good defense next week against Denver.
00:13:43
But the Bills defense should be able to ah, handle the broncosoffense.
00:13:48
Brendan Allen has been kind of He's been strangely good.
00:13:52
We kind of came out of nowhere.
00:13:54
Nobody really expected him to do a whole lot, but, um, Brendan Allen has been very good these past two weeks.
00:14:00
He played against Cleveland, He beat Cleveland.
00:14:03
They went up against Minnesota today and they almost got the wind.
00:14:06
But not quite so, uh, Phil's definitely have to be smart against the Broncos, but that could be an easy win.
00:14:11
Um, if it's played right and then we got Thanksgiving and we go up against the Cowboys.
00:14:17
So that's not a That's not a loss.
00:14:20
I don't I don't think that I'm writing it off as a loss yet, for sure.
00:14:24
Um, a lot of teams have been given the Cowboys from troubles this year, so I think the Bills could definitely do that to, um, get the raisins.
00:14:32
I'm a positive bill's friends, so I'm gonna say we got a chance.
00:14:35
But it's gonna be definitely tough.
00:14:36
Um, so we're looking good going down stretch here.
00:14:40
There's there's a lot of surprises in today's then, uh, this week.
00:14:45
So far, I mean, Arizona's only they got a three point lead with 40 seconds left against the San Francisco 40 Niners, so they've been getting them in trouble this year.
00:14:55
But I'm just worried about the bills.
00:14:56
Right now, there's 773 should be eight and three next week on def.
00:15:02
The Patriots could lose the today against the Eagles, which it is, I believe 17 to 10.
00:15:09
Um, New England is up.
00:15:11
What if they if they lose bills, we're only one game back in the division.
00:15:14
So you never know with the NFL, So keep it locked in.
00:15:18
