Bills Postgame Live: Instant Reaction To Bills 36-10 Win Over The Ravens-এর সম্পূর্ণ প্রতিলিপি

defense was out there. 00:05:15 Speaker 5: Oh man, our defense balled out tonight. 00:05:16 Speaker 6: And, um, again, I, I said this in the interview after I hope their quarterbacks, especially, you know, not especially, but Lamar and, and Tyler doing okay. Um, you hate to see guys go down in this game. It's extremely violent game. We understand that, but you want to, you want to play the best. Um, You know, and I thought number 12 came in, and you never really expect to see yourself in that position or that situation. Made some really good throws, but our defense, they played lights out tonight. 00:05:43 Speaker 4: Josh, you talked about it gets messy down there at the goal line. 00:05:47 Speaker 3: On that touchdown, when you reach the ball over the goal line, it looks like you're held back. 00:05:52 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, it's fourth down. Just find a way to get it over the goal line. They did a good job. 00:05:56 Speaker 6: They got some really big guys up in the middle, and they had a really good plan for some of our quarterback sneak stuff. Now the one to Jimbo, I kind of ad-libbed and just got to trust it. That's me doing too much. Now he got the first down, but still don't feel like that puts us in a great position or a great situation. So just got to trust the guys in front, trust the call, and just play some football. 00:06:18 Speaker 1: Josh, coming out of the. 00:06:19 Speaker 10: Bye week, did you think you just had to get back in the rhythm? You felt better after the first half? 00:06:25 Speaker 11: Yeah. 00:06:27 Speaker 6: Yeah, again, I don't think we were. playing bad football, we weren't executing how we'd like to. The two turnovers in the first half, we can't have it. So, again, I think just getting into the locker room at halftime and just calming guys down and saying, let's move on and play the next half one play at a time and focus on the details. 00:06:45 Speaker 7: Josh, for coming in, being drafted as quarterback of the Buffalo Bills, have you ever envisioned that you will become the all-time elite passer? 00:06:56 Speaker 5: I mean, that's the goal, right? 00:06:58 Speaker 6: To go out there and be the best quarterback that you can be and, um, to go out there and play good football. And I, again, we've, we've done that for quite some time now. We had to continue to do that and find ways to, to be better and to get better, um, to break the records and what, like, it's, it's cool. But like, I understand, like, it's not just me, right. There's, there's a lot of guys that have put a lot of work into this that have helped me get to this spot right here. Um, And I don't take that for granted to be the quarterback for the Buffalo Bills. And I said this in the interview after, you know, God's placed me here for a reason. And I'm going to continue to trust his plan. 00:07:37 Speaker 12: You played against the Ravens. I think that might have been one of your very first games. You came out and you placed the starting point back

to the Bills. The rain and that rainstorm down in Baltimore. How far away? Does that seem like eons ago? 00:07:50 Speaker 6: Honestly, it feels like yesterday. It doesn't, you know, truly like I'm in year nine now. 00:07:56 Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure. 00:07:57 Speaker 6: You're nine, but I can remember that game and the feeling of the football, the tackiness of it. It was downpour going in there at halftime. I remember the first play that we ran, it was a play called Superman. So it doesn't feel like that long ago. But again, I guess time flies when you're having fun. I love this game. I love playing this game with my teammates. I'm just going to continue to have as much fun as I can. 00:08:18 Speaker 7: Should I talk about the people that placed you here? How about University of Wyoming, Crystal Pete and those guys? 00:08:24 Speaker 5: Yeah, I saw Crystal Pete on the scoreboard. How about that? 00:08:27 Speaker 6: I told Kyle Allen that I flew him in here. I needed some good luck from them. They're playing some good football right now in Laramie. Our guy CT, the offensive coordinator who was here with us last year, is doing some really good stuff. And I think they're playing really well in the conference right now. I think they're 5-3, had a bye week this week. So got to keep things rolling there too. 00:08:48 Speaker 5: Thank you guys for listening. 00:08:50 Speaker 1: Josh Allen saying the offense's standard in the first half was bad, but as an offense, he said we're good at figuring things out. Once we get into the flow of a game and understanding what a defense is trying to do to us, we can make successful adjustments. George, what was Baltimore's defense doing in the first half that was catching Buffalo's offense kind of. 00:09:10 Speaker 9: On their toes? 00:09:11 Speaker 3: They stymied the run early. 00:09:13 Speaker 2: We tried to come out and establish the run with Cook, their interior defensive lineman, Stuffed the run and forced us to have to go to the play-action game. And we did make the adjustment and started making more play-action passes on first and ten to be able to get some X plays. And, hey, like Josh said in the press conference, those guys get paid as well. But you have to stick to your identity. And one thing that I love that he said, he said, we understood that we didn't play to our standard, but we trust one another. We had to trust the play call, trust the game plan, and get back to our brand of football. 00:09:45 Speaker 3: And that's ultimately what they did in the second half. 00:09:47 Speaker 1: Yeah, Josh Allen sticking to what he does best. Just over 100 passing yards in the first half, second half. Adding on to that finishes with 289 passing yards. 00:09:59 Speaker 9: Two passing touchdowns for Josh Allen. 00:10:01 Speaker 1: And man, those two are special because Allen now has the most passing touchdowns in Bill's history, including the playoffs, passing Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly to He's now at 260, George. What a moment in Allen's career. And he does it in the middle of season number nine. 00:10:22 Speaker 3: Right. 00:10:23 Speaker 2: And you have to tip your hat to Josh, I mean. And I love that he didn't take all the credit for himself. He gave the credit to his teammates, to the playmakers around him, to his coaches. And that's the ultimate winner. That's the ultimate sign of a leader. But it all boils down to getting the job done on the field, passing the bills all the time. 00:10:43 Speaker 3: Great at NFL. 00:10:44 Speaker 6: Great. 00:10:44 Speaker 2: And Jim Kelly, but there's so much more to go with Josh's career. Just in the middle of year nine, and the sky's the limit. Who knows where this guy's numbers will ultimately end up at. 00:10:56 Speaker 9: I'm getting chills. You know who else gave me chills in this game? George, I know you're going to love this. 00:11:00 Speaker 1: Buffalo's defense had a new demeanor about them coming out of the bye week. They acted as we are the aggressor. Five three and outs. They forced three takeaways. allowed just 2.9 yards per play. 00:11:15 Speaker 9: What was the biggest difference? 00:11:17 Speaker 2: Their swagger. They came out on the field with confidence. All 11 guys with their cleats in the ground, focused on the football, eye discipline where it needs to be. We played a lot more man coverage than we have up to this point, and they made those plays. It wasn't a lot of yards after the catch. When there was zone coverage... It was top-down. The Ravens may catch the ball, but the Bills defender was right there to get some tackles for no gain or TFLs. But then in man coverage, those windows were tight. We had seven pass breakups as a defense today, 12 hits on the quarterback. So you take Henry out of the game, force that Ravens offense to be one-dimensional, and then you pin your ears back and get after the quarterback. 00:11:58 Speaker 3: And that defensive front did exactly that tonight. 00:12:00 Speaker 9: Tight windows in man coverage. 00:12:02 Speaker 1: Weeks ago, we were talking about this young defense not being able to play as much man coverage because they didn't have the bodies to cover. Week eight, Buffalo's defense is successful in man coverage. What were they doing to hold down their man effectively? 00:12:17 Speaker 3: You can tell they took advantage of that bye week. 00:12:19 Speaker 2: Getting some time in the film room, getting some extra reps for these young guys. And that's what I love to see, these young guys stepping up to the plate. We had a sack by Deion Walker, by TJ Parker. IGB gets the first interception for the corners on this Bills defense. Landon Jackson getting his name in the paper, making another sack. So seeing these young guys start to come into their own, taking advantage of that bye week, understanding who we are, what got us to this point, what's been giving us issues, and going out there and doing the little things, understanding where you're supposed

to be lined up at, having that pre-snap communication done before the snap so that your eyes are in the right place when that ball is hiked. 00:12:58 Speaker 1: We've watched Buffalo's offense carry this team in the first half of several games, but it was Buffalo's defense who really carried the team in the first half, just allowing seven points. 00:13:09 Speaker 9: They allow only 10 points. 00:13:10 Speaker 3: On the day. 00:13:10 Speaker 1: So a fantastic job by Buffalo's defense coming out. 00:13:13 Speaker 3: Of the bye week. 00:13:14 Speaker 1: Bill's head coach, Joe Brady, is on the podium right now. 00:13:19 Speaker 3: You ready, coach? 00:13:20 Speaker 11: I'm ready for you. 00:13:21 Speaker 10: Coach, what are your thoughts back after the bye? 00:13:23 Speaker 4: It started off a little slow. 00:13:25 Speaker 10: Your defense seemed to bring a little bit more pressure today. Was that by design? 00:13:31 Speaker 13: Yeah, I thought the defense game plan was outstanding. I thought the way we started the game was outstanding, like taking the ball, going down the field, getting points. Obviously, the penalty in the red zone again, showing up again, but able to overcome and get points. Defense come back in the three and out. So I thought the start of the game was outstanding. I thought defense the whole game, that's a standard by how they played. It shouldn't matter who's on the other sideline, who's playing quarterback, any of that. And then I thought they finished, and I'm really proud of how they played. 00:14:03 Speaker 14: Joe, you really came out of the gates hot with the first drive on offense, but then the rest of the first half, it just seemed like You're. 00:14:09 Speaker 11: Just unraveled a little bit. 00:14:11 Speaker 13: I thought a lot of the... I told him at halftime, I was pissed at halftime. There's a standard by how I believe our offense should play. Some of the same mistakes that were showing up, that have shown up, were showing up. We were turning the ball over, penalties, getting nice plays and penalties were showing up. Getting the ball in the red zone, a penalty showing up. 00:14:34 Speaker 11: It was like Groundhog Day. 00:14:36 Speaker 13: There's a standard by how we got to go and so you know, offensive staff, you know, there was, it wasn't, it wasn't a calm, just, Hey, all is well, you know, we're going to keep it moving second half. Like, you know, that's why I always tell you guys, like, I don't care about the stats. I don't care about, you know, where we are in the league. 00:14:52 Speaker 11: Like, right. You can look at NC 36 points and it's like, all right, yep. Kept it moving. 00:14:56 Speaker 13: Now the second half, I thought was more of who we are being able to finish drives. You know, there was, we had some, we had some, some drives that, Hey, we got midfield and we had another penalty, but, you know, I felt like it was a combination of beating ourselves and, you know, and not necessarily the other way

around, you know, from them. So the guys handled it well, you know, and just got to continue to get better. But I thought the second half was more of what the standard should look like. 00:15:23 Speaker 3: Love it. Awesome. 00:15:24 Speaker 8: Now in passing, Jim Kelly. 00:15:26 Speaker 3: You waited, huh? How did you do that here in front of the home crowd? 00:15:29 Speaker 4: Your thoughts, because you've got a partner. 00:15:32 Speaker 7: Yeah. 00:15:34 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, look, Josh, we're all spoiled. right? 00:15:38 Speaker 13: Like it's, uh, um, there's going to come a time, right? Where we're just being able to look back at highlights of Josh Allen. And, um, right now we get to see it live and seeing what he does. Um, you know, uh, uh, he is, he literally is one-on-one. 00:15:52 Speaker 11: He's incredible. 00:15:53 Speaker 13: And, um, there's a lot of football still ahead of him and that's, that's, what's incredible. But, um, whatever, whatever he, he wears every hat the right way and handles it the right way. And, um, you know, I'm sure there's gonna be many more touchdowns still to come, but, um, to get to do that in the home stadium in front of these people, I'm sure that's obviously special. 00:16:13 Speaker 15: What kind of thoughts did you have on D.J. 00:16:14 Speaker 3: Moore's return? 00:16:16 Speaker 13: Yeah, he must piss a lot of guys off, because every time he gets hit, he gets absolutely smoked. You can see what he does to our offense, and, you know, opportunity, there's one Josh wants back, you know, where, you know, he wanted me to get back to it at another shot down the field, but, you know, just getting the ball in his hands, good things happen, and without forcing it, you know, and We just got to trust, you know, within the system, but DJ's very impactful to who we are, his personality, him on the field. We get different defenses with him on the field, and that's got to be used to our advantage, but thought he handled it well, made some big plays for us, and, you know, obviously it was great to get him back. 00:16:56 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I said. 00:16:59 Speaker 13: Everybody just literally, he must piss everybody off because he gets hit hard every time, but no, he's good to go. 00:17:06 Speaker 4: With the offense kind of having their moments of struggling, the defense able to kind of make plays, what can that group take. 00:17:11 Speaker 3: Out of today? 00:17:13 Speaker 13: I mean, I think our defense should look at today and understand that that's what the expectation is, regardless of, and I'm not talking about the production, I'm not talking about the takeaways and sacks, I'm talking about the style that they played, the way that they flew around. Look, I'm just watching it out there, but I think the silent tape is going to speak loudly tomorrow in terms of The way that they played for one another, the way they ran around, the communication, everything we challenged them coming off the bye, I thought they responded to it and they just kept going, right? We've played really good football early in games. We've played really good football in the first half, but just being able to sustain it and finish it. And that first drive in the second half wasn't the standard and they were able to regroup and kind of go. So I hope our defense understands that. That's why there was no panic last week and while we've been going through things. And while we were getting better, I wanted to make sure that we didn't lose what makes us special. And I thought that the way that they flew around today was the thing that really stood out to me. 00:18:08 Speaker 14: Joe, what went into having the offensive starters stay out there up 19 with like seven or so. 00:18:14 Speaker 11: Minutes to go? 00:18:15 Speaker 13: Um, yeah, I mean, look, you can always be a little nitpicky in terms of how many possessions and what it can kind of look like. And sometimes it's, it's, um, um, you know, we have, we have a little chart and, um, of kind of what it looks like depending on, you know, if, if we went three straight runs and how many possessions could they potentially have? And so that was, that was the kind of thought process behind it. 00:18:36 Speaker 10: How big was having Ed Oliver back? Just having him on the field, it kind of changes the block. 00:18:43 Speaker 11: Yeah. I mean, like, I don't know. 00:18:44 Speaker 13: I don't know if, I don't know if what his production was today, but the hits he had on the quarterback and, you know, seeing him run off the field, like he was, he was involved in the game and felt it and the smile on his face and just getting him back out. Like, like I said, We built this defense around Ed, and whether he's making plays or not, he's making plays without making the play, and I'm sure that it's just huge to get him out there for our team, for him, for everything. 00:19:10 Speaker 11: So I'm so proud of him and glad he was able to play football again. 00:19:17 Speaker 14: I mean, he's been a force most of the season. 00:19:22 Speaker 3: Got a little quiet defensively and then came back in this one. 00:19:25 Speaker 13: Yeah, everyone just kind of– We're going to throw them on tape and know that, hey, we left stuff out there defensively too, right? And so, you know, and now it's, but hey, we're not a one-man show. And the everybody eats kind of philosophy that we kind of always talk about, it goes to defense too, right? If they're jamming Ed, or excuse me, if they're jamming Greg, it should open up opportunities one-on-ones for somebody else. Deion Walker making plays should open up opportunities for Chubb, Russo, those things. And, you know, how do we continue to scheme up things to get one-on-ones? And so there's a lot that goes into it, but you know, I saw our guys celebrating each other's success and not care about their own today. 00:20:00 Speaker 11: And that to me is always what's most important. 00:20:02 Speaker 14: Joe, given

how well the defense played today, is there any thought to keeping DeMar in the starting lineup? 00:20:09 Speaker 13: Yeah, look, we'll kind of turn on the tape on tomorrow and kind of just evaluate everything and kind of go from there. I think it's too early to kind of get a feel from that. 00:20:17 Speaker 15: How valuable was the bye week for you, the coaches and everything? 00:20:21 Speaker 3: Maybe make the tweaks you'd like to make, whether it was offense, defense, or special teams. 00:20:25 Speaker 13: Yeah, I think if you use it to the advantage and understand what you're kind of looking at, and then the biggest thing is the players understanding what you saw and not just, hey, we got, we have to improve on this, but what are the solutions with it? Like, what are we actually going to do? What is practice going to look differently? How are we going to, is our day, anything going to be different without the day and throughout the day? So I'm proud of how the handle, the coaches handled the week, you know, in all areas. And I thought we had an incredible week of practice. So I told the team last night, like I wasn't, I didn't have to wake up today worrying about if, you know, how this game was going to go. Cause I already, they already earned it in three days of practice. So yeah, It's no surprise, but the way that they handled the bye week speaks to kind of who we are. 00:21:07 Speaker 14: You guys are generally unstoppable. I'm sure we already explored them once. What were they doing to really take it away or make your life hard? 00:21:14 Speaker 13: This is just me. They didn't do anything differently. I have to be better in those situations. 00:21:22 Speaker 15: Defensively, they have three quarterbacks playing the game. Lamar goes out after the first snap. How do you see the defense adjust to having to deal with multiple quarterbacks. 00:21:32 Speaker 16: Throughout the game? 00:21:33 Speaker 11: Yeah. 00:21:34 Speaker 13: You know, it's, it's, yes, you have to, you have to be able to handle it and different quarterbacks had different skill sets and local Lamar Jackson is obviously one of the best, you know, the quarterbacks to play our game. 00:21:44 Speaker 3: Right. 00:21:44 Speaker 13: So there are always going to be differences, but I want our guys to understand, right. It's, it's not, it's not about who they are, their name, it's a nameless faceless team. And we have to, we have to handle, you know, our business and being with our communication and it's all, it's all about us. So, you know, once the quarterback moves went out, it was like, all right, it shouldn't take, it shouldn't, our standards shouldn't change because of who's playing quarterback for them. And so, I'm proud of how our guys kind of approached that. 00:22:07 Speaker 15: Some of those blitzes were able to get home. 00:22:11 Speaker 13: Sometimes blitzing isn't about getting home. Sometimes it's about creating the matchups. There's so many different nuances to it,

but I thought Jim called an incredible game. He had a great pulse on how the game needed to be played and I thought the guys understood it as well. I thought the communication across the board from coaches to players, players to players out on the field was elite and It's no secret why the results kind of played out that way as well. 00:22:37 Speaker 8: Josh mentioned that you guys as a group of coaches and players have been very good at adjusting the game on offense. 00:22:43 Speaker 5: Do you think you need to take a little bit. 00:22:47 Speaker 8: Longer? 00:22:48 Speaker 13: Look, I don't think I think our standard wasn't good. I thought our execution, our details, penalties and fumbles and I thought we started off fast in that first drive, but then I felt like we kind of lost lost kind of our way in terms of some of the little things that I said, it's, I said at halftime, right. I felt like it was groundhog day in terms of like, it's the same things kind of showing up. So either we're going to continue to get better and we're going to, we're going to keep putting this, we're going to keep putting this stuff on tape. 00:23:16 Speaker 3: Right. 00:23:16 Speaker 13: And, um, you know, and, and they, and they responded, um, there's a standard that I believe we should play as a football team. And I don't care about the points. I don't care about the production. I don't care about anything besides of, you know, what it, what it looks like and us doing our job. And they responded, the second half was more of the standard and, When you have Josh Allen, you're never going to get what you game plan for. I've learned that for a lot of years. And, you know, can we adjust? 00:23:38 Speaker 11: Can we? 00:23:39 Speaker 13: And, you know, we have a saying, and we're right around the difference, that no one's going to adjust better. And let's take our composure, and we hope that we're on the field long enough to be able to get a feel of how they're playing and what it's going to look like. And we have a lot of different personnel groupings, and now DJ's back. And, you know, there's so many different nuances of how it kind of goes. But there's time on the clock. Let's just keep playing, and we'll figure it out. And the guys have a lot of trust in us, and I have a lot of trust in them. 00:24:01 Speaker 4: You may have been asked this, I'm sorry if you were, but how needed was that performance by your defense? How much did your defense need. 00:24:09 Speaker 3: A game like that? 00:24:09 Speaker 13: I don't think our defense cares other than we won the football game. They know that, like I've said it to them multiple times, they've been playing really good football, but it's, hey, on third down and we get in situational football and extending drives and penalties, you know, and today they were able to, you know, They had that third and seven, I think, or third and eight to start the second half. But outside of that, I thought they were outstanding on third down. They were getting off the field. They were really good and get back on track situation. So a lot of the things that we talked about that, hey, there shouldn't be too much of a discrepancy between, hey, on schedule and off schedule. 00:24:45 Speaker 11: And it all kind of showed up today. 00:24:46 Speaker 13: And, you know, no one pointed fingers, you know, when the quote unquote results weren't what they needed to be. They just worked and the communication needed to improve. 00:24:55 Speaker 11: And it did. 00:24:56 Speaker 17: Likewise, I'm sorry if you were asked about these guys. I know you may want to. 00:24:59 Speaker 8: Watch the game back, but Tylan Grable and, uh, to Corey couch, both stepping. 00:25:04 Speaker 18: Into the lineup and seeming like they didn't really miss a beat. 00:25:06 Speaker 14: What did you think of their efforts? 00:25:07 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:25:08 Speaker 13: I mean, Graves, um, you know, uh, Graves, I can speak a little, probably more on Graves cause I understood how the game was kind of going from that perspective. And, um, you know, that Rams game was huge for him. Um, and you know, the confidence that he had going into the game and, and, and look, it's real, like he didn't know he was going to be starting this game until, you know, so it's, kind of shows, and that's life of a backup tackle. And to be able to go in there and me not have to feel like I have to call it very differently and the confidence and trust I have on him. And there's a reason why, you know, he's our third tackle and that can play both positions. And I thought he was outstanding. And that's hard in the league to win football games and to play with, you know, backup offensive linemen. And, you know, Graves, there was no hesitation, no blink. 00:25:53 Speaker 3: And T. 00:25:54 Speaker 13: Couch, right, he's been injured. Now he's coming back. Hey, what's the Alfred situation going to be? 00:25:58 Speaker 11: Boom, you're up. 00:25:59 Speaker 13: And, you know, being able to make plays on the football, critical tackles, the involvement he has on special teams. And so it's going to be like that moving forward. You know, look, I remember last year in the playoff game, there was a lot of guys that had not played football prior to that playoff game. You know, and so when I spoke to the team on Monday, there's a lot of guys that haven't played a down for us, but we're going to need them at some point. And when their time comes, are they going to be ready? 00:26:24 Speaker 18: Yeah. 00:26:26 Speaker 13: Look, Graves and Teacouch have played, but those are guys that weren't starters at the end of the year, and then opportunities come up and they make the most of it. And so it kind of speaks to who they are, the preparation that they have, but it's kind of our locker room, and I'm proud of the men for that. 00:26:40 Speaker 7: Any update on Palmer? 00:26:42 Speaker 13: I don't. 00:26:43 Speaker 11: I don't have any updates. 00:26:43 Speaker 14:

Joe, how close to the game did you wind up making that decision on Spencer this week? 00:26:49 Speaker 13: Yeah, I told Spence I was going to give him all the way up until game time. Part of the perks is we have this indoor facility, right? So you don't have to, if you're ever going to do workouts and do any things, you don't ever have to go out on the field and do stuff. So if you guys are always waiting out there to kind of see how the pregame warmups might look like or anything like that. But no, I knew Spence coming in today, we were able to make the decision last night because he wasn't feeling good. he wasn't feeling like he could be the best version of himself and, you know, but he was close and Graves got a lot of the work in practice. And so, you know, similar to the situation of kind of DJ where it felt like it was something that, you know, Spence, Spence would go if he could, you know, I had to kind of protect Spence from Spence and I thought Graves had a great week of practice. And so, and Spence handled everything the right way and was kind of played, played the game through Graves today. 00:27:41 Speaker 16: The run that he's. 00:27:43 Speaker 8: On, what does it, what does it mean to you to see that, after missing all the last season for him to having the success. 00:27:50 Speaker 5: That he's having? 00:27:51 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:27:52 Speaker 13: I mean, um, there's no surprise. Um, I know I had a field, a lot of questions about him. It's kind of like, you know, uh, like Keon sometimes, but it's like when you're with these guys on a daily basis and you see the work that they put in trying to get better, um, you know, half the kicks, I don't even watch cause I have that confidence in him. And, um, you know, I, uh, you know, we were celebrating a little too long. It was bad on my part. I should have either gave a time, I should have called a timeout for that one extra point, but he didn't blink and that's kind of who he is. And, you know, his, his resolve and last year was tough and he's made the most of it this year and he's just got to keep going. You know, we've got a lot of confidence in him, you know, AKA the Rams game and I'm just throwing them out there and he doesn't blink and, you know, I'm appreciative of who he is and he's going to continue to make big kicks for us. 00:28:39 Speaker 14: One more, What happened at the end of the first half when the clock was running and wound up taking a timeout. 00:28:45 Speaker 11: After a lot of seconds? 00:28:46 Speaker 13: Yeah, so, right, I'm probably going to be messed up a little bit. It was whether it was second down or third down. The thought process was, like, we call a timeout right now. We're already in a bad situation. We're already in a bad situation. But, you know, I can call two passes right now and try to get into field goal range. But I also don't want to make sure. It's going to be tough. I might be completely wrong right now. A lot is playing through my head. It was going to be tough at that situation to score a touchdown. We wanted to be able to get points, but we didn't want to give them opportunity to be able to get the ball back, too. That was the thought process, feeling like, hey, if we take it down to 20 seconds, we run a play. We felt like we knew the look we were going to get to be able to get to the play with Josh to get. 00:29:26 Speaker 11: Out of bounds. 00:29:27 Speaker 13: That was, I think, when I was getting ready for the third down play to be able to get into field goal range. Now, once we make the kick, you do the math with it. They don't have a chance. We kick one ball. They won't have a chance to get the response with it. So I thought from a game management standpoint, I thought we handled that well. Again, we'll go evaluate it. I might feel differently tomorrow. But where we were so far back, not in field goal range, it felt like, hey, it's going to be hard to get a first down right here. Let's find a way to get field goal range without giving them. You go back to the Dallas Baltimore game, They've shown to be able to get a chunk and kick a big field goal, so let's not give them that opportunity. First and foremost, let us get in the field goal range, but let's not them get a rebuttal. 00:30:09 Speaker 11: I think that's what you're talking about. 00:30:10 Speaker 3: Awesome. 00:30:11 Speaker 11: Thank you. 00:30:12 Speaker 1: Today's game sponsor is Seneca Resorts and Casinos, the official casino partner of the Bills. I love what Joe Brady said about the defense, saying that they are not a one-man show. The defense played together today, and during the early part of the season, we talked about how the defense played Their issues were trust, trusting each other. And you saw the Russian coverage work together today. Seven pass breakups, 12 quarterback hits. That's the definition of playing together, George. 00:30:38 Speaker 3: Yes, that front complemented the secondary. 00:30:40 Speaker 2: And you can tell they took advantage of the bye week, got some rest, got some guys healthier, but also got some more time on task and working together to ensure that the communication was on point and that guys understood exactly what their role was, play in and play out. They played fast. They played physical. They played fun. They were celebrating one another. There was a lot of plays to be made up front in the linebacker position and in the secondary. 00:31:05 Speaker 3: And that's what you want to see. 00:31:07 Speaker 2: All three levels making plays and impacting the game and ultimately helping to seal the victory for the Bills. 00:31:14 Speaker 9: We've heard former. 00:31:14 Speaker 1: Bills defensive players like Micah Hyde say momentum is one hell of a drug. And I cannot wait to see what this momentum does for Buffalo's young defense. 00:31:23 Speaker 9: Speaking of young defense. 00:31:25 Speaker 1: Cornerback Davison Igbenosen had his first career interception today. The outside corners

were waiting to get one, and IGB grabs his own today against the Ravens. 00:31:35 Speaker 9: He was in the locker room after the game. Let's hear what he had to say. 00:31:39 Speaker 3: Tell me about that play. 00:31:41 Speaker 19: First and foremost, I want to give the glory to the Lord Jesus, my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The ball just fell into my hands, to be honest. 00:31:50 Speaker 16: Right after a play where you had a one-on-one in the outside, and then you bounced right back after that to make the play. Take us through that mindset play after play. 00:31:57 Speaker 19: Yeah, that's what I do. I bounce back. 00:31:58 Speaker 3: I respond. 00:31:59 Speaker 19: I play corner. Some things are not going to go your way, but it's always about the next play and how you respond. 00:32:05 Speaker 16: Davidson, did anything change from the game plan standpoint when they had to go through not only their second quarterback, but again, get to their third quarterback? 00:32:11 Speaker 19: Yeah, definitely. I mean, we were expecting to play Lamar Jackson. Lamar Jackson is one of the best quarterbacks to play football and we know he's very um mobile can escape the pocket so that i was a big part of our game plan and then when they got to the second quarterback kind of similar because he got the similar skill set then when they got to the third quarterback completely changed the gameplay because we know he's not as mobile completely different game when he's in the game. 00:32:35 Speaker 5: What uh what was different for the. 00:32:36 Speaker 6: Bills defense today obviously they go down a couple quarterbacks but you guys came out flying around right from the start. 00:32:42 Speaker 19: Yeah i think it's just um It's getting to the point of the season where we kind of know. 00:32:47 Speaker 3: What we got. 00:32:48 Speaker 19: We're not trying to establish our identity. 00:32:52 Speaker 17: I feel like now we've. 00:32:53 Speaker 3: Created our identity. 00:32:56 Speaker 1: Rookie cornerback Davison Igbenosun saying, we know what we have on defense this point in the season. Week eight, the identity of us is here, and it was great to see them come out of the bye week with a new identity, an identity of we're going to be the aggressor in this matchup. And Igbenosun grabs his first career interception. How has he improved game over game? 00:33:19 Speaker 2: He said it right there. As a corner in the NFL, you have to be one play minded. No matter what the outcome of the prior play or the previous drive, you have to focus on the next play. He understands that dynamic of being a cornerback in the NFL, and he's shown that growth and that maturity to compete, play in and play out. 00:33:39 Speaker 3: No matter what, play the next play. 00:33:41 Speaker 2: You've got to prove yourself each and every time you step on this field, and he's continued to do that. As I said before the bye. The IGB that we had that took the field in September will not be the same guy who takes the field in December and into January. 00:33:56 Speaker 3: So I'm excited. 00:33:57 Speaker 2: This guy has so much upside, so much natural physical ability, and the sky's the limit for him. 00:34:02 Speaker 1: Igbenosun talked about seeing three different quarterbacks for the Ravens today. A weird game for Ravens quarterbacks because Lamar Jackson goes out the first play of their drive with a right thumb injury, doesn't come back in the matchup, After the game, we hear Jackson has to get surgery on that right thumb and will go on to injured reserve. Such a bummer for such a talented quarterback. They then go to Tyler Huntley, who ultimately gets ruled out with a toe injury. So you're on to your undrafted rookie quarterback. 00:34:36 Speaker 9: And Joe, I got to, I want to say Finiano. 00:34:40 Speaker 1: I was going to, got to make sure I'm right on this. Undrafted rookie quarterback, Joe Finiano. And as a defense, having to play three different quarterbacks, it's hard to get into a rhythm and understand what you're seeing. 00:34:55 Speaker 2: But as a defender, you have to adjust and adapt to anything, to everything that happens to you on the field. You come in with a game plan of playing against Lamar Jackson. He goes down first player of the game. Tyler Huntley comes in. He has a similar skill set as IGP said. They're going to call similar play calls for Huntley as they do for Jackson. But when you get to that third string quarterback who really hasn't gotten much of an opportunity to play at all. So you can't game plan for something that's never, you know, he's never seen the field. But because his skill set and his athleticism is not the same as Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley's, Now you can play a little bit more open. 00:35:33 Speaker 3: You can be more aggressive. He hasn't seen the looks on tape. 00:35:36 Speaker 2: He didn't get many practice reps throughout the week, I'm sure. So he's thrust into the lineup and forced to play the whole entirety of the game almost. But as a defender, it changes how you play the game because you want to cage rush Lamar. You want to try to speed up the clock of Tyler Huntley. 00:35:55 Speaker 3: But with Fignano. 00:35:57 Speaker 2: He hasn't seen much, so you can disguise and confuse him. 00:36:00 Speaker 3: And it forces him. 00:36:01 Speaker 2: A young quarterback is going to hold on to the football a lot of times, and that gave the defensive front plenty of time to get to him, get hits on him, 12 hits. And, hey, that's always going to disrupt the time in the passing game of the opposing offense. 00:36:16 Speaker 1: Buffalo's defensive line, defense as a whole, ends up with four total sacks. 00:36:20 Speaker 9: They allow just 144 total yards. 00:36:24 Speaker 1: And the Ravens offense goes three of 13 on third down. Finiano played a good portion of the game and started out hot out of the game with two big completions. Then Buffalo's defense started to settle in and understand how to play a

younger quarterback who hasn't seen much at all. Kudos to the Ravens for having three quarterbacks up. They had to go to that emergency quarterback in that game. That's something you don't see often in the NFL. 00:36:54 Speaker 3: No, you don't, but you have to be prepared for that. 00:36:57 Speaker 2: And a lot of that, I think they probably, with the rotation and the turnover they've had in the offensive line, they probably wanted to ensure that they did have a third-string quarterback there. 00:37:06 Speaker 3: But I also want to tip the hat to the defense. 00:37:08 Speaker 2: Zay Flowers came in leading the league in yards after catch. 00:37:13 Speaker 3: But you don't have to worry about Yak if he doesn't catch a ball at all. No catches today. 00:37:17 Speaker 2: Hey, that's a hats off to this Bills secondary to be able to take a big play weapon away from this Ravens offense. And that just goes to show the confidence that that back four of the Bills secondary really came into the game feeling. 00:37:30 Speaker 1: Zay Flowers is averaging more than 100 receiving yards per game going into this matchup. He has five targets today, zero catches. That means no yards for Flowers, Buffalo's defense. Did a fantastic job of shutting him down. DJ Moore, after missing two games, was back in the lineup. Had a huge catch for Buffalo going over 40 yards. Man, it was exciting to see him back in the lineup. Let's see what he had to say after the game. 00:38:00 Speaker 17: Yeah, I'm good. 00:38:01 Speaker 3: I'm doing good. 00:38:02 Speaker 5: Just got to go check out some. 00:38:04 Speaker 3: Stuff and then be gone. Hyper extension. 00:38:11 Speaker 12: Extension? 00:38:12 Speaker 19: Yeah. 00:38:13 Speaker 3: We'd be good, though. What did it mean for you to get back out there and contribute? It meant everything. I got the jitters out. 00:38:22 Speaker 20: When I first stepped on the field, and then I got the jitters out even more when I fumbled, and I was like, all right, now it's time to really lock back in and get going. So I was nervous at first, and then went out there and just was like, all right, this is the game that I love, and it was good. 00:38:37 Speaker 11: You? 00:38:38 Speaker 17: You play a lot of games in this league. 00:38:40 Speaker 11: You're nervous because of coming back from the injury or just because you haven't been out there? 00:38:44 Speaker 20: It's more of, yeah, because of the injury and not being out there. So, like, he was like, dang. I'm like, dang, am I in game shape? And today I found out I was. 00:38:53 Speaker 4: PJ, what does it say about this offense that, look, there was some problems today, especially in the first half. 00:38:57 Speaker 11: You still scored 36. 00:38:58 Speaker 3: What does it say about this offense? 00:39:01 Speaker 20: We really got to hone in. Like I said, I can't have that fumble. No fun, but we probably go down in the score. We probably had more than 36 points. You know what I'm saying? 00:39:11

Speaker 16: You had Marlon. 00:39:12 Speaker 13: Humphrey on that 49-yard catch. 00:39:14 Speaker 16: I mean, when you're up in the air like that, twisting your body, take us through what you were seeing and being able to come down with it. 00:39:22 Speaker 20: At first, I thought the ball was just going to stay. Like, I kind of overran the ball and had to make that crazy catch. The ball kind of turned over on me, and I was like, dang, I got to make this catch a difficult catch. And then my body just took over. I don't really be thinking in that moment, and I just do what I do. 00:39:41 Speaker 3: How much could. 00:39:42 Speaker 1: You tell the extra weeks off helped you today? 00:39:48 Speaker 18: Shoot. 00:39:48 Speaker 3: I was running, running fast. 00:39:50 Speaker 11: I wasn't really tired. 00:39:53 Speaker 20: Really, it was nothing with the SC joint or anything this week, so I was pretty happy about that. 00:40:03 Speaker 16: DJ, sorry, I just came over a minute ago. I heard you limped off a field after a catch. 00:40:07 Speaker 13: How did you feel when you. 00:40:08 Speaker 20: Came out of the game? 00:40:11 Speaker 3: Like 90%. 00:40:11 Speaker 1: I feel good. 00:40:13 Speaker 11: Football, you're always going to. 00:40:13 Speaker 20: Have some nicks and bruises and injuries, Probably got those. I don't feel them right now, but I probably would feel them in like 15 minutes. 00:40:20 Speaker 1: DJ Moore did what he does best in this matchup. We saw Allen target Moore deep for a 49-yard catch. 00:40:29 Speaker 9: And man, when. 00:40:29 Speaker 1: Moore is up for those 50-50 balls, he is such a physical receiver. Came down with it, sets up a Bills touchdown for the Bills to go up 13. So good to have a healthy DJ Moore. 00:40:40 Speaker 9: Back in the lineup. 00:40:41 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a game changer for us. He stretches the field, opens up. 00:40:45 Speaker 2: The windows and creates opportunities for the other pass catchers in the passing game. And just hearing that, I just really appreciate his honesty and transparency saying that he felt a little nervous, a little anxious when the game first began. And that comes from being out of rhythm, not being in the lineup, going through the logistics of getting ready for a game throughout the week and also on your game day routines. But just him just saying, having an honest moment hey these guys play a gladiator sport yeah but they're humans at the end of the day and I just really appreciate his transparency right there just saying hey I had to lock back in I had to understand that hey I'm ready to go I'm in shape hey let's let's get back to DJ Moore style football and hey he's just such an impact player and Joe Brady said in his press conference When DJ Moore is on the field opposing defenses, play the offense, play the Bills offense different. So he's a difference maker and he creates opportunities for everyone. 00:41:43 Speaker 1: Joe Brady also said, DJ Moore must have pissed off the

entire NFL in terms of defenses because when Moore is on the field, defenses tackle him hard. 00:41:53 Speaker 9: You're watching that game and some of the hits are going, ooh, ah, is he okay? 00:41:57 Speaker 1: Thankfully, Moore makes it through this game okay and he'll be fine to go for next game. 00:42:01 Speaker 3: But man! 00:42:02 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a physical player and defenders understand that he runs aggressively. He's running to the contact and they know and understand that so they have to bring their hat as well. But You know, he's just been in some tough spots, catching the ball in traffic. And, you know, he got banged up there at the end of the game. But as he said, he's feeling pretty good. And that's always a good thing for this Bills team. 00:42:24 Speaker 1: Chris Brown and Eric Wood called a fantastic game. Let's go into the broadcast booth and check in with them. 00:42:30 Speaker 13: All right, Eric. 00:42:30 Speaker 18: So coming off the bye week, we were wondering what we were going to see on defense in terms of changes. The first one happened up here in the booth. Jim Leonard, the defensive coordinator, moved upstairs. It probably helped to some degree, although it's kind of hard to ascertain because the Ravens were down to their third quarterback before the first half was over. 00:42:49 Speaker 17: Right, you get the Lamar injury on the first play of the game. Tyler Huntley comes out quickly, so a little hard to evaluate. But the fact that they were able to hold Derrick Henry in check today, stop the Ravens' run game for the most part, hold Zay Flowers to zero catches on the game, provide consistent pressure on the quarterback is a great sign. I felt like the defense brought more pressure in this game from the second and third level. The defense saw that early on with the very first play of the game that hurt Lamar Jackson. Terrell Bernard's coming on a blitz. You had the sack early in the game with the fumble by Cole Bishop coming on the blitz. The blitzes seem to be timed better this week as well. 00:43:28 Speaker 18: And then Igben Osen comes up with the tip drill interception. 00:43:32 Speaker 3: That leads to a field goal. 00:43:33 Speaker 18: Bills with six points off turnovers. And even though the offense for a while could not get out of their own way, there were still some explosives in there and leading the way, DJ Moore and Dalton Kincaid. 00:43:45 Speaker 3: Yeah, welcome back. 00:43:46 Speaker 17: DJ Moore had the big 49-yard high point on the post route down the field. Dalton Kincaid able to make some plays down the field. Yes, there was times where it was sloppy, whether it was the drops, the penalties, the turnovers. But all in all, the Bills get out of here and put up another 36 points. 00:44:04 Speaker 18: Moore with four catches for 82 yards and a touchdown. Kincaid, four catches, 86 yards and a touchdown. And Josh Allen passes Hall of Famer Jim Kelly to become the all-time passing touchdown leader in

Bills history. It wasn't pretty, but the Bills are 6-1, and they'll face another 6-1 team next week on Monday Night Football in Minnesota. But for now, we'll throw it back to you guys in the studio. 00:44:26 Speaker 1: Chris and Eric with a big nugget there saying Jim Leonard was upstairs calling plays today against the Ravens instead of on the field. We know heading into this season, Jim Leonard said that he loved being on the field because he got to see his players and interact with them. 00:44:43 Speaker 9: What could the difference have been going upstairs? 00:44:46 Speaker 2: Well, one, it takes away, you know, that pressure that a player may feel. These are young guys that may not be accustomed to having their defensive coordinator on or the guy making all the decisions on who's playing and who's not, right there on the sideline with them. He has to communicate with them now through the telephone on the sideline, and maybe that allows some guys to loosen up. But I just tip my hat to Jim Leonard and his coaching staff to say, okay, what can we do that's a little different? Maybe going up to the booth may change the dynamic on the sideline and help some guys loosen up and play faster. 00:45:18 Speaker 3: And, hey, it works, so I look for that to continue. 00:45:21 Speaker 1: Tyler Bass was automatic in this matchup. We're calling him Bass-o-matic now because he was three of three, hit two for more than 50 yards, also has made 21 straight field goals. That is a new franchise record. George, when drives stalled, Bass was there to punch it in. 00:45:39 Speaker 2: You want to have a kicker like Tyler on your team. He's confident, he's consistent, and he's a difference maker. When you can't score touchdowns, you can get points out of those drives, it makes a difference. It allows you to extend the drive. It allows you to feel like you still have a positive takeaway from that drive, even though it didn't end in the end zone. And Tyler just has brought a different dynamic to this team that was missing a year ago. And to have him back in the lineup has that consistent and dependability factor that he brings to the game that no matter how the drive ends, if we're on the opponent's side of the 50, that we have a chance to get three at least. 00:46:16 Speaker 1: The Bills are now 6-1. They have won 12 straight games coming off of their bye week. That is the longest active streak in the NFL. George, what is your senator's statement coming off this victory? 00:46:28 Speaker 2: As the Bills went into the bye week, there was a lot of questions. 00:46:31 Speaker 3: Who were we as a team, offensive and defensive? 00:46:34 Speaker 2: The Bills took advantage of that bye week, got some guys healthy, refined the game plan, did a deep dive understanding what are we doing that's great, what do we do that's the best. And how do we lean into those things as we go into the second half. 00:46:49 Speaker 3: Of the season? 00:46:50 Speaker 2: This after the bye week, the Bills face an 11 week stretch where the goal is to win the division, win home field advantage and be able to force everyone else to come into the new Highmark Stadium to try to win the game. The beautiful thing about the bye week is everybody has to experience it. And with us being able to play. About six games before we go in, we're able to get a lot of tape out there to see what guys are doing well, how they're performing in those different situations on third down, in red zone, on both sides of the ball. Ultimately, this game is about production. The team seemed to have scaled some things back, simplified the game plan, and as a result, that defense came out and played fast. After the offense found their way, they came out and scored a lot of points in droves. 00:47:34 Speaker 3: And when you look at this offense. 00:47:36 Speaker 2: You scored 36 points, but you had a first half where there was a long lull between scoring drives. 00:47:42 Speaker 9: You had eight drives. 00:47:43 Speaker 2: Imagine if we can clean up those penalties or eliminate those turnovers, what type of offensive production can be. You can outscore guys on the offensive side of the ball, and if we can get more consistent stops on the defensive side of the ball, we saw more three and outs. 00:47:58 Speaker 3: We saw some turnovers. We saw hits on the quarterback. 00:48:01 Speaker 2: If we can continue to build on a game like tonight, who knows where this Bills team can end up at. 00:48:05 Speaker 1: All right, we're going out with a shout-out to Greg Rousseau because he has a sack in this game, three quarterback hits. He is the first Bill to have seven sacks in his first seven games of the season since Lorenzo Alexander did it in 2016. Greg Rousseau continues to impact the game. So great job, Rousseau. We can't wait to see more out of you. That's going to do it for us from Bill's postgame live. He's George Wilson. 00:48:28 Speaker 3: I'm Maddie Glab. 00:48:29 Speaker 9: We'll see you all next week. 00:48:44 Speaker 14: And now.
