Bills after this blowout loss? Also, who is the real

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Here we go for Hello.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Here we go below huh what happened? Oh, they played,
they played an opponent that's not a cupcake. Well come,
in the beginning of another week of the Ben Balor Show.
We are in the air, amywhere in a cluster as
(01:39):
we avoid that dark energy coast duck cooast, border, the

(02:21):
book Guy, Felexis, and Derek the Bills Monster. I think
I hit all the Bills Mafia Show contributors in hiding
right now. Wow, what was that? My goodness? But we'll
start with it is what we're gonna do. Play the hits,
mom man, play the hits are so we'll play the
hits here to begin the week. As we look back
and we still have a couple of games to go.
(02:42):
Little Monday night doubleheader. But two two teams who consider
themselves contenders for the American Football Conference, our league, coming
from the charm City. They got together there and was
built as a hey heavyweight mac up, early season heavyweight
matchup in the first quarter of the NFL season, and
(03:07):
you had Josh Allen and the Bills. They were strutting around,
look at us, smelling themselves Buffalo playing, paying a visit
to Lamar, Lamar Jackson and the Ravens who got off
to the slow start, but one against the Cowboys, trying
to make it two in a row. You had Mike
Turrico and Chris Collinsworth. They had to call a NBC
(03:29):
living the Island life, the island life here and how
did that go? Early season litmus test. Okay, so we know,
we know what happened. Maybe you didn't see the game,
but I guess it depends on what side of the
aisle you're sitting on, because Dereck Henry king for the day.
(03:50):
Derek Henry had one hundred and ninety nine yards rumblin
and stumbling, not a lot of rumbling and not a
lot of stumbling. One hundred ninety nine yards. Lamar Jackson
had not one but two touchdowns and he got it done.
Two touchdowns through the air, two and one on the ground.
So that my master is that's three. The Ravens made
(04:13):
mince meat out of buffalo meat and Josh Allen thirty
five to ten, Good afternoon, good evening, and good night
on a Sunday night. Henry took the first handoff that
he got eighty seven yards to pay dirt, and that
gave Baltimore the early lead. They never trailed. They led
from pillar to post, and they win this game to
(04:36):
get to two and two. But the better story is
in the losing locker room. Better story in the losing
locker rooms. So let us discuss the question where is
the worry O meter? The worry O meter for the Bills.
As we all knew, this was a big spot for
them to see if they were legitimate or not, and
they went out there and just got punked. They got
(04:56):
absolutely passed by the Ravens. So where is the the
worry OH meter for the Bills after this blowout? Laws?
So I've got scooby dooby doo, FDA approved supplement and
chatwalk and we will combine all of these things together
and we are going to make a nice leisurely walk
(05:19):
down the avenue, which is what the Ravens had, not
the bills. The Ravens had a leisurely walk down the avenue.
So a the Malor worry O meter one to ten,
with ten being oh my god, we're screwed. That's at
the very top of the Malor Warrio meter. But for
the Buffalo bills, I will be realistic, I will be grounded.
(05:42):
I will not be a shock jock. I will not
be trying to get attention here. But the Malor warriometer
in this particular moment, we do the show today. We
don't do the show tomorrow. That's the different show. Or
the day after that's another show. But in this moment,
the Malor Warrio meter one to ten for Buffalo eight
point zero, eight point zho. I am at eight point
(06:06):
zero here. Now we had mentioned in previous episodes that
while Buffalo was enjoying early season success, that was a
byproduct of a sugary sweet schedule to start the year.
Wins over Alligator Arms, Murray, the frauds that are the
Arizona Cardinals. Every year, the Miami Dolphins in a game
(06:26):
where Tua tongue. Bai Loa got knocked out probably for
the rest of the year, if not for a good
chunk of the year. And then Jacksonville. Three teams that
are puke. None of them are going to make the
playoffs this year. They're all going to miss the playoffs.
So Baltimore was the placement test. This was the measuring
stick game. And imagine, if you will, a classic Scooby
(06:50):
doobey Doo meme, a Scooby Doobe doo meme. Here, Let's
see who this really is? Right that the question, Let's
see who this really is? This is this team from Buffalo,
and this was the Bills Scooby Dooby do reveal game.
All right, So the famous scene the Buffalo football team
(07:10):
there was dressed as a ghost and they were unmasked
on national TV pre tenders. Pre tenders. Right, they flunked
in every way possible, every way possible from the very
basic bedrock of football blocking and tackling. You had backups,
(07:32):
and Buffalo did not have a lot of depth to
start the year. It appears the backups suck and can't play,
which is problematic, right, I would think I'm not a
Bills fan, but if your backups can't tackle. It's not
like Derrick Henry was not going through would be Buffalo defenders.
There was no one there stopping no one there stopping
(07:55):
Derrick Henry. There were people that could have made plays
that did not make plays. Now, page two, who is
the real Josh Allen? So we know the Bills have
questions on defense and just in general, a las a
fair approach to this particular game. But that noise you
heard was the screech and scream coming from the campaign center,
(08:18):
the campaign center for the Josh Allen Marching and Chowder
Society ENVP campaign. Because that came off the tracks, that
MVP campaign, coming off the tracks in a large way.
That was an elbow right to the solar plexus, is
what it was. Baltimore defensively coming in this game not
ranked in the top twenty in every key category. It's
(08:40):
early under you. Okay, that's all we have to go by.
And this was statistically not a great Ravens defense, and
yet they were absolutely able to manhandle the Buffalo offense
in this game. And you take a couple of steps back,
and I recall some conversations we had after the Jacksonville
Monday Night game and the conversation there was about how
(09:03):
the Bills were different. Remember Josh Allen and made a
comment about and it was he said it was taken
out of context, but it wasn't. He was clearly flexing
that they didn't have Stefan Diggs anymore and so they
were better. They could spread the ball around and pumped
your chest out and all that. Okay, Well, clearly my
diagnosis here behind these microphones is they need an FDA
(09:25):
approved supplement for premature braggadocio. Is what they need here
the Buffalo Bills. Because the Bills, the Bills team that
showed up now defensive issues aside on offense. The offense
could have kept them in the game. And even with
the defense as bad as it was, some good offense
gives you a shot. They had no chance. Mitch Trubisky
(09:47):
was playing by the fourth quarter of the game. He
was playing in mop up time at the end of
the game. Because there was no wow factor. There was
no there there for the Buffalo Bills in this game.
They were methodically were dull. It was yawn inducing football.
And they had a bunch It'll be like a baseball
team with a bunch of punch and judy hitters, and
(10:07):
they needed that big moonshot and they had no one
that could hit the ball out of the ballpark in
this game, just twelve first downs, futile two hundred and
thirty six yards of offense on this night. Again, I
guess the Ravens team.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
I know.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
The pedigree of the Ravens is they're always a top
ten defense. Not this year, not so far, not in
the top twenty in most statistical categories. And Baltimore had
almost double the yardage, almost double the yardage. Unless the
Bills can can find something somewhere offensively, this is how
(10:41):
they're going to have to play with this slow, no
real chunk plays. They don't have any big time players
unless they can go out and trade for demonte Adams.
The Raiders won without them. They've played the Browns, which
is barely an NFL team, the Cleveland Browns at this
particular point, but they did win a game without them there,
so we'll see what happen with that. But that's the
top available receiver. The trade deadlines in early in November.
(11:04):
We're heading in in a couple of days here, we'll
be into the month of October. So the trade deadline
will be here before you know. But the Bails have
a bunch of rinky dink wide receivers. That's what they
have all right now. Last word does on the other side,
does this performance a resounding win by Baltimore? Does it
budge the needle for Lamois, Lamar Jackson and the Ravens?
(11:28):
And I would be Benny bright Side on this. I
didn't see it coming. We handicapped the game for the
TV show. I did not expect this to be a blowout.
I for some reason, I thought the Bills would actually
compete here, and I think the Ravens were that that
much better than Buffalo, and much to my dismay, that
was the case here. But this for Baltimore, this was
(11:49):
a trip down the catwalk and they're doing the peacock dance,
is what they were doing down the catwalk where they
fluffing their feathers out and humming, I'm too sexy, ooh
la la as they go down the catwalk. Because they
were really hitting on all all cylinders and all that,
doing a little pirouet there with their feathers out on
the catwalk for everyone to see. And the thing about domination,
(12:12):
even if you took the eighty seven yard run away
from Derrick. Henry said, well, that was an outlier. You
know that happens. But that's an outlier. So what did
the Bills do the rest of the time. So the
other twenty three times that Henry carried the ball, he
averaged four point nine yards per carry, even with he
(12:33):
went over one hundred yards even without the eighty seven
yard run. And now the asterisk the yeah but yeah,
but yeah, but yeah, but yeah, but the yabb but
is well, it's late September, it's late September. It's a
random week in the NFL. It's Week four of the
NFL schedules, So you don't get too excited about that.
(12:53):
What is the kryptonite of Lamar Jackson. The kryptonite of
Lamar Jackson is the fact that the play else in
January football. That's where Lamar is exposed as a total fraud.
Every year, it will continue until he proves that not
to be the case. And for one night, despite that,
for one night, the Ravens absolutely didn't push the needle
(13:17):
the other way. They pushed the needle the other way here.
But let's not forget that this same Baltimore team in
that stadium a couple of weeks ago got punked by
Gardner Minshew, my guy Gardner Minshew and the Raiders in
the fourth quarter. Comeback for the ages for the greatness
of the Las Vegas Raiders, and so now they have
(13:39):
a letdown spot, Big TV win, prime time for the Ravens.
Everyone will be kissing their ass for the next forty
eight hours saying watch out Baltimore. The team be beat.
Now they've found themselves and then they have to play
Joe Burrow and the Bengals in Cincinnati. That'll be next week,
in week number five. It is the Ben Mahler Show.
(14:02):
If you'd like to be part, you can join us
here speak easy rules are in effect, but there are
lines open. You can call up and scream and shout
and all that stuff. Also on X at Ben Mahler,
that is at Ben Maler if you'd like to be
part of the program. So Tom Brady continuing his broadcasting journey.
(14:24):
He did a non Cowboy game on this week as
the Cowboys played on Thursday, so trust me, he probably
wanted to do the Cowboy game, but not available, not
a Fox game. But we have our first Brady Beef
our first Brady Beef of the NFL season. What is
all about that? I don't even know if he eats meat?
Does Brady eat beef? I don't know. He might be
(14:46):
like weird vegan or something like that. I have no idea.
But we'll get to that and we will do it next.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maler
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (15:01):
The Ben Mallor Show is a collaborative effort. You're invited
to communicate with those of us on this side of
the microphones. You can follow your host on X He's
at Ben Mallor, and you can post at and follow me.
Eddie Garcia, your humble sidekick, the voice of Reason, your
news guy, You're announcer guy. I'm at Eddie on Fox
(15:22):
Nuts and Alive from the tyrac dot Com Fox Sports
Radio Studios. It's Ben Mallor.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
We'll get to the Brady Beef coming up a little
bit later. The King Rory starts us off on the
listener feedback portion of the show on X at Ben
Mallory says, nothing cheered up my night better? I don't know,
if that's proper English, then you're putting the bills in
their place, especially since my packers suffered a good loss
(15:50):
on Sunday against the frauds from Minnesota. Sure Love was
a little rusty, but he'll come to form and the
Packers will win next week. Yeahnteed, guaranteed, says the King Rory.
This would be the part of the broadcast that we
(16:12):
point out the Green Bay Packers played the Rams next
week in La. Well, good luck on that, good luck
on that. That's a good loss. Ben, what's a good
loss where you cover the spread, that's a good loss.
Oh okay, but the Packers did not cover the spread,
so that's not a good loss. So no, the Vikings.
If you had the Vikings, you wont a good loss.
It's not whether you want to lose. Did you cover
(16:33):
the spread? That's a good loss. That's a loss you
can sleep okay at. And the Vikings. How great are
things looking for the Minnesota Vikings?
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Four?
Speaker 1 (16:43):
No, they go to they go across to London. I
believe next week they play the Jets who blow and
so and he's possible, Sam Darnold, Sam Darnald, the glass
Slipper could crack like Cinderella and he play like the
old Sam Donald. But assuming that doesn't happen, that's at
(17:04):
five and zero for the Minnesota Minnesota Vikings, and then
they have the bye week and they might lose that
somebody could get arrested on the bye week. That happens,
you start looking down the line saying, well, gams, you
should just win because you're playing crap bag teams, and
the Vikings have a bunch of those games still to
come down the line against crap teams like the Cardinals
(17:27):
and the play the Titans and the Jaguars and teams
like that. I mean this, all of a sudden, you're
looking at like, well, ten eleven, twelve wins, is that
out of the question. Then you keep reminding yourself at
some point, at some point, Sam Donald's going to have
a period of time where he realizes he's Sam Donald.
That becomes problematic. Yeah, Shane in de Moines says, I
(17:49):
am not optimismistic about Seattle's chances versus Detroit, but it
should be a showcase of two average quarterbacks on America's
biggest stage. Gohawks. Yeah, it's about right. It's about right here.
Geno Smith and Jared Goff. Not exactly musty TV. Not
(18:12):
exactly musty TV. I'm just saying. Tiger Man in Utah
points out that Jayden Daniels is the best quarterback in
the NFC East and it's not even particularly close. Please
get Daniel Jones out of there. He's not even worthy
to share that division with Jaden, says Tiger Man, who
(18:33):
right now is wearing his baton rouge purple and gold
under ruse. He's got those on right now and he's
excited about that. Let's see who else do we have.
Robbie the Falcon fan, says Mallard. Do not be a
prisoner of the moment. It's game four of a seventeen
(18:53):
GM regular season. The worry meter can't be more than
a five, and I'm probably going high with the Robbie.
You don't know how to do talk radio, Robbie, And
that's number one. Number two, we do the show again.
We have to do this show like it's the last
show we'll ever do and people don't understand that. But
(19:14):
nothing else is guaranteed. I know that tomorrow show is
not guaranteed. The show after that's not guaranteed. Today is
all we have. What you're doing, Robbie is assuming that
we're gonna have plenty of time. And the other problem
is this, And I've talked to Don Martin, one of
our bosses here at Fox. I've said, no, Don, why
don't I not form any strong opinions until the end
of the year. I don't want to be an overreactionary
(19:35):
talk show host. And you say, Ben, why would you?
Why would you want to be like that? Ben, I'll
fire your ass if you do that. Ben, You get
paid to give opinions as the season is going on.
But these dopes like that Robbie the merrit fan, No, No,
you should just wait. It's only it's only game four
out of seventeen. I'm Robbie the burner fed. I don't
(19:55):
want to be offended. Oh my god, how about you
go out there. I have a crap performance, your stupid
envy big quarterback Josh Allen, suck Pathenic pathenic, Josh Allen,
my fat ass, Josh Allen. Stop. Let's go the phones.
(20:16):
Ryan is in Burbank, as some like to call it, Hello, Ryan,
what's up? You're on Fox Sports Radio?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Ah?
Speaker 5 (20:23):
Big Ben, Yes, I'm gonna be overreactionary here. Do you
remember Ben in the summer when Horbaugh was trying to avoid,
you know, getting sanctioned, you know VI, you know, the
NCAA because of his Michigan transgressions. And he's like, you
know what, I'm gonna go to Los Angeles and I'm
(20:45):
gonna be amongst the slabs and this really cool city,
and I got this sweet stadium, and I got this
amazing MVP caliber quarterback that everyone says is great, Justin Herbert,
and I'm going to implement the worst offense ever for
Justin Herbert. And my question is, watching the Charger game today,
(21:08):
does that look like any other different Charger game you've
ever watched. I was like, like, did you watch it?
And you're like, yeah, the charge is still gonna lose.
You're finding a way to lose. Does Herbert look like terrible?
They look like they're running some horrid nineteen seventy style
NFL office.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Yeah, well that's that's because they are. Yeah, I mean Ryan,
you know that. I mean that's what Harball believes, whether
he'll be proven right or not, that that's how you
win in the playoffs. Now, if they play like they
did on Sunday, they won't be in the playoffs, so
it won't really matter. But the argument is that you
win that way in the in the plus. But yeah,
that was that was futile. I mean, they had no
(21:46):
they were trying it keps, trying to run the ball.
It can't run the ball nothing.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
I'm watching the.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Game, bo and I'm like, why are you paying this
quarterback fifty whatever how many million dollars a year and
he's throwing like five yard outs. I'm like, what is
this kept playing? Trent Silfer.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Yeah, well that's but that is also ninety five percent
of NFL offenses. If you watch these other teams play,
it's the same way. I mean, they very rarely throw
the ball down the field, even the guys that have
big yardage totals, it's usually the yards after the catch.
They don't. Most of the teams don't throw the ball
down the field. But yeah, it was. That was bad.
I mean the Chiefs turned the ball over the first
couple of times, and he had a ten to nothing lead,
(22:23):
and they had eight other possessions and did nothing with
those other eight possessions. They punted six times, missed the
field goal, and I think they turned it over on
downs and in Chances City lost like their their stud
receiver to Rashie Rice, who's gonna be out for the
entire year.
Speaker 5 (22:41):
Again, I'm watching this game, Ben and again it was
like as as somebody who just listened to all the
fervor all year. I'm just going, this is nothing different
about this team. Nothing.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Well, at least there there is consistency though, Ryan, for
the Chargers. They can change coaches, they can change players,
but and the consistency of teasing you with early leads
and then vanishing for big chunks of time. That's the Chargers.
So that's all right, thank you, Ryan. All right, Eddie,
would you like to defend the Chargers? You're part of
(23:14):
the Charger what are you like super fan club or
something like that? Is that what you call that group?
I don't know, but no defense, that was it's nothing
you want to hear. Let me. Yes, you're gonna say, oh,
they were injured and yeah, yeah, okay, that's that's not
not for this. Maybe some other shows can take that,
but not this, not here. You guys should be called
(23:34):
the batteries, get it, because your team is the Chargers,
So you guys are batteries as fans, but not rechargeable batteries, rechargeable. Yeah,
it's great. At least they covered the spread. So that's see.
That was a good loss. That's a good loss. They
were we did the TV show. At the time we
did the TV show, the line was eight. They lost
by seven. So that's a good loss, outstanding, all right,
(23:58):
Way to go.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
We are rolling on here through these late night early
morning hours. And hey, tell a friend, tell a friend
about the show. Try the podcast. Podcasts will be up
when we get done, and you can hear all the amazing,
amazing factoids and whatnot. We have a fun fact right now.
We have a fun fact. Fun fact. All right, Well,
(24:25):
it depends on what you think is the term fun.
But Anthony Richardson, High Faluton, first round pick out of
Florida barely played for the Gators. But Anthony Richardson has
now played out of a possible twenty one career NFL games.
He has played eight of a possible twenty one NFL
(24:46):
career games. He has finished four of those eight games
due to injury, so he hasn't finished rather so, he's
only finished out of twenty one games in his career.
There's only four games that he's played and finished. He
has overall played in just eight games. But half the
time he plays, he gets hurt. He got hurt in
(25:06):
the game against the Steelers, which wow, the Colts ended
up winning. They were victorious Indianapolis, so winning that game,
beating up Pittsburg Steelers, and they led that game by
a wide march on seventeen early seventeen point lead in
that game, and they end up winning that. But Anthony Richardson,
(25:28):
we'll see if he's able to play in the next
game for the Colts, but he is at out skis
in that particular game. Let's see here. Matt the Warrior
Raider fan says, don't forget we had hot WNBA playoff
action on Sunday two. Yeah, I'm good on that. But
maybe Eddie will mention that I don't know, or Angry
(25:51):
Bill will have his pants off he'll call up and
talk about that. I don't know. Masshole Mickey writes, and
he says, so great to hear you and your crew.
It was a rough weekend listening to WNBA and President's
Cup talk. I don't know who is doing that. I
have no idea. Let's see, Andy writes and says, excellent
monologue about Buffalo, No more strutting. I didn't get to
(26:13):
watch the game, though I was seeing Judas Priest and
others that louder than life in Louisville, Kentucky. And he
points out here the FSR tech Queen Lorraina, can we
get a little living after midnight as a bump for
the Malard militia. So he's questing Lorena atoon she is
(26:36):
in charge of all the music. I have nothing at
all to do with any of the music, but I'm
not in charge of imaging, so don't get at me.
Do you think the listener knows the difference between music
and imaging? They expect me to know sports, so they should.
No radio there you go, No no chance, zero chance,
(26:59):
zero zero zero. Let's go back to the phones. We'll

Cheeter Harball screwed up my my, my Sunday after afternoons.
I want to have a good I want to have
a good time.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
I want to hold on. Wait, didn't Harball do everything
you wanted? They played bad football. They were a boring team,
isn't don't you want to what are you doing? Shouldn't
you be complimenting Jim Harbaugh? The Chargers will never win
anything playing that brand of football. They're losers.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Well, no, this is this.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
Is about me personally.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
So you would rather have the Chargers played better football
so the game's more enjoyable. But it was ten to
nothing late in the second quarter.
Speaker 6 (29:40):
You were down that they already hired a cook as
their coach, So so I want him to lose in
the most humiliating way possible. So I want him to
be embarrassed on the national stage.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Well aren't you. Aren't you bearing the lead though? Wait
wait wait wait, hold in the in the lead, that
there's clearly problems between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey, that
she did not she didn't show up to the game.
Is in l A right, everyone wants to go to LA.
All the little celebrity fans live in LA, and she
didn't getting to it. She didn't show up, she wasn't there.
(30:15):
What's going on? Is it the end of the romance?
Speaker 6 (30:18):
I've heard rumor, I've heard rumors that they got a
contract that this this this confirms my point, Oh that
Taylor Swift needs Travis much more. This confirms what I think.
All yeah, contract to break up. Apparently that this week
(30:38):
she's gonna go find another another hot, hot boy friend
that he Travis was just a flavor of the month,
and she's gonna write songs that are that are gonna
take a crap on.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Them that better.
Speaker 6 (30:51):
Her Poe ratings are going down? Did you know that?
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Yeah, that's true. In fact, I was talking and you
don't know this, but I was talking to Lorraina and
she told me that no one ever bought us song
of Taylor Swift before she started hanging out with Aric Kelsey.
Speaker 6 (31:04):
That's right. And on the new NBC News poll released Friday,
since she her ratings are going down from forty to
thirty three percent. So she's gonna get ready to Travis
to have it her popular I.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Hear you, all right, you're very long winded. You're very
long winded. I must move on. But thank you as
keg drinking Steve a full day of boozing and still
sober enough to well. I don't know about sober enough,
but he able to call the show. We will call

completion percentage, he surpassed me for the highest completion percentage
minimum eighty attempts by a player in his first four

Here an Hour number one. We start out this hour
with a bang on this thirtieth day of September, the
(00:42):
last Monday of the month of September. The Bills and
the Ravens. Where is the worry Oh meter for the
Bills after this blowout loss? Also, who is the real
Josh Allen for the Bills? And does this performance budge
the needle for Lamar Jackson and the Ravens? Is they
(01:04):
win in dominating fashion? We'll talk about all that and
more right now. Settle in. It's our number one.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Here we go for Hello.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Here we go below huh what happened? Oh, they played,

in the beginning of another week of the Ben Balor Show.
We are in the air, amywhere in a cluster as

I hit all the Bills Mafia Show contributors in hiding
right now. Wow, what was that? My goodness? But we'll
start with it is what we're gonna do. Play the hits,
mom man, play the hits are so we'll play the
hits here to begin the week. As we look back
and we still have a couple of games to go.
(02:42):
Little Monday night doubleheader. But two two teams who consider
themselves contenders for the American Football Conference, our league, coming
from the charm City. They got together there and was
built as a hey heavyweight mac up, early season heavyweight
matchup in the first quarter of the NFL season, and
(03:07):
you had Josh Allen and the Bills. They were strutting around,
look at us, smelling themselves Buffalo playing, paying a visit
to Lamar, Lamar Jackson and the Ravens who got off
to the slow start, but one against the Cowboys, trying
to make it two in a row. You had Mike
Turrico and Chris Collinsworth. They had to call a NBC
(03:29):
living the Island life, the island life here and how
did that go? Early season litmus test. Okay, so we know,
we know what happened. Maybe you didn't see the game,
but I guess it depends on what side of the
aisle you're sitting on, because Dereck Henry king for the day.
(03:50):
Derek Henry had one hundred and ninety nine yards rumblin
and stumbling, not a lot of rumbling and not a
lot of stumbling. One hundred ninety nine yards. Lamar Jackson
had not one but two touchdowns and he got it done.
Two touchdowns through the air, two and one on the ground.
So that my master is that's three. The Ravens made
(04:13):
mince meat out of buffalo meat and Josh Allen thirty
five to ten, Good afternoon, good evening, and good night
on a Sunday night. Henry took the first handoff that
he got eighty seven yards to pay dirt, and that
gave Baltimore the early lead. They never trailed. They led
from pillar to post, and they win this game to
(04:36):
get to two and two. But the better story is
in the losing locker room. Better story in the losing
locker rooms. So let us discuss the question where is
the worry O meter? The worry O meter for the Bills.
As we all knew, this was a big spot for
them to see if they were legitimate or not, and
they went out there and just got punked. They got
(04:56):
absolutely passed by the Ravens. So where is the the
worry OH meter for the Bills after this blowout? Laws?
So I've got scooby dooby doo, FDA approved supplement and
chatwalk and we will combine all of these things together
and we are going to make a nice leisurely walk
(05:19):
down the avenue, which is what the Ravens had, not
the bills. The Ravens had a leisurely walk down the avenue.
So a the Malor worry O meter one to ten,
with ten being oh my god, we're screwed. That's at
the very top of the Malor Warrio meter. But for
the Buffalo bills, I will be realistic, I will be grounded.
(05:42):
I will not be a shock jock. I will not
be trying to get attention here. But the Malor warriometer
in this particular moment, we do the show today. We
don't do the show tomorrow. That's the different show. Or
the day after that's another show. But in this moment,
the Malor Warrio meter one to ten for Buffalo eight
point zero, eight point zho. I am at eight point
(06:06):
zero here. Now we had mentioned in previous episodes that
while Buffalo was enjoying early season success, that was a
byproduct of a sugary sweet schedule to start the year.
Wins over Alligator Arms, Murray, the frauds that are the
Arizona Cardinals. Every year, the Miami Dolphins in a game
(06:26):
where Tua tongue. Bai Loa got knocked out probably for
the rest of the year, if not for a good
chunk of the year. And then Jacksonville. Three teams that
are puke. None of them are going to make the
playoffs this year. They're all going to miss the playoffs.
So Baltimore was the placement test. This was the measuring
stick game. And imagine, if you will, a classic Scooby
(06:50):
doobey Doo meme, a Scooby Doobe doo meme. Here, Let's
see who this really is? Right that the question, Let's
see who this really is? This is this team from Buffalo,
and this was the Bills Scooby Dooby do reveal game.
All right, So the famous scene the Buffalo football team
(07:10):
there was dressed as a ghost and they were unmasked
on national TV pre tenders. Pre tenders. Right, they flunked
in every way possible, every way possible from the very
basic bedrock of football blocking and tackling. You had backups,
(07:32):
and Buffalo did not have a lot of depth to
start the year. It appears the backups suck and can't play,
which is problematic, right, I would think I'm not a
Bills fan, but if your backups can't tackle. It's not
like Derrick Henry was not going through would be Buffalo defenders.
There was no one there stopping no one there stopping
(07:55):
Derrick Henry. There were people that could have made plays
that did not make plays. Now, page two, who is
the real Josh Allen? So we know the Bills have
questions on defense and just in general, a las a
fair approach to this particular game. But that noise you
heard was the screech and scream coming from the campaign center,
(08:18):
the campaign center for the Josh Allen Marching and Chowder
Society ENVP campaign. Because that came off the tracks, that
MVP campaign, coming off the tracks in a large way.
That was an elbow right to the solar plexus, is
what it was. Baltimore defensively coming in this game not
ranked in the top twenty in every key category. It's
(08:40):
early under you. Okay, that's all we have to go by.
And this was statistically not a great Ravens defense, and
yet they were absolutely able to manhandle the Buffalo offense
in this game. And you take a couple of steps back,
and I recall some conversations we had after the Jacksonville
Monday Night game and the conversation there was about how
(09:03):
the Bills were different. Remember Josh Allen and made a
comment about and it was he said it was taken
out of context, but it wasn't. He was clearly flexing
that they didn't have Stefan Diggs anymore and so they
were better. They could spread the ball around and pumped
your chest out and all that. Okay, Well, clearly my
diagnosis here behind these microphones is they need an FDA
(09:25):
approved supplement for premature braggadocio. Is what they need here
the Buffalo Bills. Because the Bills, the Bills team that
showed up now defensive issues aside on offense. The offense
could have kept them in the game. And even with
the defense as bad as it was, some good offense
gives you a shot. They had no chance. Mitch Trubisky
(09:47):
was playing by the fourth quarter of the game. He
was playing in mop up time at the end of
the game. Because there was no wow factor. There was
no there there for the Buffalo Bills in this game.
They were methodically were dull. It was yawn inducing football.
And they had a bunch It'll be like a baseball
team with a bunch of punch and judy hitters, and
(10:07):
they needed that big moonshot and they had no one
that could hit the ball out of the ballpark in
this game, just twelve first downs, futile two hundred and
thirty six yards of offense on this night. Again, I
guess the Ravens team.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
I know.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
The pedigree of the Ravens is they're always a top
ten defense. Not this year, not so far, not in
the top twenty in most statistical categories. And Baltimore had
almost double the yardage, almost double the yardage. Unless the
Bills can can find something somewhere offensively, this is how
(10:41):
they're going to have to play with this slow, no
real chunk plays. They don't have any big time players
unless they can go out and trade for demonte Adams.
The Raiders won without them. They've played the Browns, which
is barely an NFL team, the Cleveland Browns at this
particular point, but they did win a game without them there,
so we'll see what happen with that. But that's the
top available receiver. The trade deadlines in early in November.
(11:04):
We're heading in in a couple of days here, we'll
be into the month of October. So the trade deadline
will be here before you know. But the Bails have
a bunch of rinky dink wide receivers. That's what they
have all right now. Last word does on the other side,
does this performance a resounding win by Baltimore? Does it
budge the needle for Lamois, Lamar Jackson and the Ravens?
(11:28):
And I would be Benny bright Side on this. I
didn't see it coming. We handicapped the game for the
TV show. I did not expect this to be a blowout.
I for some reason, I thought the Bills would actually
compete here, and I think the Ravens were that that
much better than Buffalo, and much to my dismay, that
was the case here. But this for Baltimore, this was
(11:49):
a trip down the catwalk and they're doing the peacock dance,
is what they were doing down the catwalk where they
fluffing their feathers out and humming, I'm too sexy, ooh
la la as they go down the catwalk. Because they
were really hitting on all all cylinders and all that,
doing a little pirouet there with their feathers out on
the catwalk for everyone to see. And the thing about domination,
(12:12):
even if you took the eighty seven yard run away
from Derrick. Henry said, well, that was an outlier. You
know that happens. But that's an outlier. So what did
the Bills do the rest of the time. So the
other twenty three times that Henry carried the ball, he
averaged four point nine yards per carry, even with he
(12:33):
went over one hundred yards even without the eighty seven
yard run. And now the asterisk the yeah but yeah,
but yeah, but yeah, but yeah, but the yabb but
is well, it's late September, it's late September. It's a
random week in the NFL. It's Week four of the
NFL schedules, So you don't get too excited about that.
(12:53):
What is the kryptonite of Lamar Jackson. The kryptonite of
Lamar Jackson is the fact that the play else in
January football. That's where Lamar is exposed as a total fraud.
Every year, it will continue until he proves that not
to be the case. And for one night, despite that,
for one night, the Ravens absolutely didn't push the needle
(13:17):
the other way. They pushed the needle the other way here.
But let's not forget that this same Baltimore team in
that stadium a couple of weeks ago got punked by
Gardner Minshew, my guy Gardner Minshew and the Raiders in
the fourth quarter. Comeback for the ages for the greatness
of the Las Vegas Raiders, and so now they have
(13:39):
a letdown spot, Big TV win, prime time for the Ravens.
Everyone will be kissing their ass for the next forty
eight hours saying watch out Baltimore. The team be beat.
Now they've found themselves and then they have to play
Joe Burrow and the Bengals in Cincinnati. That'll be next week,
in week number five. It is the Ben Mahler Show.
(14:02):
If you'd like to be part, you can join us
here speak easy rules are in effect, but there are
lines open. You can call up and scream and shout
and all that stuff. Also on X at Ben Mahler,
that is at Ben Maler if you'd like to be
part of the program. So Tom Brady continuing his broadcasting journey.
(14:24):
He did a non Cowboy game on this week as
the Cowboys played on Thursday, so trust me, he probably
wanted to do the Cowboy game, but not available, not
a Fox game. But we have our first Brady Beef
our first Brady Beef of the NFL season. What is
all about that? I don't even know if he eats meat?
Does Brady eat beef? I don't know. He might be
(14:46):
like weird vegan or something like that. I have no idea.
But we'll get to that and we will do it next.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maler
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (15:01):
The Ben Mallor Show is a collaborative effort. You're invited
to communicate with those of us on this side of
the microphones. You can follow your host on X He's
at Ben Mallor, and you can post at and follow me.
Eddie Garcia, your humble sidekick, the voice of Reason, your
news guy, You're announcer guy. I'm at Eddie on Fox
(15:22):
Nuts and Alive from the tyrac dot Com Fox Sports
Radio Studios. It's Ben Mallor.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
We'll get to the Brady Beef coming up a little
bit later. The King Rory starts us off on the
listener feedback portion of the show on X at Ben
Mallory says, nothing cheered up my night better? I don't know,
if that's proper English, then you're putting the bills in
their place, especially since my packers suffered a good loss
(15:50):
on Sunday against the frauds from Minnesota. Sure Love was
a little rusty, but he'll come to form and the
Packers will win next week. Yeahnteed, guaranteed, says the King Rory.
This would be the part of the broadcast that we
(16:12):
point out the Green Bay Packers played the Rams next
week in La. Well, good luck on that, good luck
on that. That's a good loss. Ben, what's a good
loss where you cover the spread, that's a good loss.
Oh okay, but the Packers did not cover the spread,
so that's not a good loss. So no, the Vikings.
If you had the Vikings, you wont a good loss.
It's not whether you want to lose. Did you cover
(16:33):
the spread? That's a good loss. That's a loss you
can sleep okay at. And the Vikings. How great are
things looking for the Minnesota Vikings?
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Four?
Speaker 1 (16:43):
No, they go to they go across to London. I
believe next week they play the Jets who blow and
so and he's possible, Sam Darnold, Sam Darnald, the glass
Slipper could crack like Cinderella and he play like the
old Sam Donald. But assuming that doesn't happen, that's at
(17:04):
five and zero for the Minnesota Minnesota Vikings, and then
they have the bye week and they might lose that
somebody could get arrested on the bye week. That happens,
you start looking down the line saying, well, gams, you
should just win because you're playing crap bag teams, and
the Vikings have a bunch of those games still to
come down the line against crap teams like the Cardinals
(17:27):
and the play the Titans and the Jaguars and teams
like that. I mean this, all of a sudden, you're
looking at like, well, ten eleven, twelve wins, is that
out of the question. Then you keep reminding yourself at
some point, at some point, Sam Donald's going to have
a period of time where he realizes he's Sam Donald.
That becomes problematic. Yeah, Shane in de Moines says, I
(17:49):
am not optimismistic about Seattle's chances versus Detroit, but it
should be a showcase of two average quarterbacks on America's
biggest stage. Gohawks. Yeah, it's about right. It's about right here.
Geno Smith and Jared Goff. Not exactly musty TV. Not
(18:12):
exactly musty TV. I'm just saying. Tiger Man in Utah
points out that Jayden Daniels is the best quarterback in
the NFC East and it's not even particularly close. Please
get Daniel Jones out of there. He's not even worthy
to share that division with Jaden, says Tiger Man, who
(18:33):
right now is wearing his baton rouge purple and gold
under ruse. He's got those on right now and he's
excited about that. Let's see who else do we have.
Robbie the Falcon fan, says Mallard. Do not be a
prisoner of the moment. It's game four of a seventeen
(18:53):
GM regular season. The worry meter can't be more than
a five, and I'm probably going high with the Robbie.
You don't know how to do talk radio, Robbie, And
that's number one. Number two, we do the show again.
We have to do this show like it's the last
show we'll ever do and people don't understand that. But
(19:14):
nothing else is guaranteed. I know that tomorrow show is
not guaranteed. The show after that's not guaranteed. Today is
all we have. What you're doing, Robbie is assuming that
we're gonna have plenty of time. And the other problem
is this, And I've talked to Don Martin, one of
our bosses here at Fox. I've said, no, Don, why
don't I not form any strong opinions until the end
of the year. I don't want to be an overreactionary
(19:35):
talk show host. And you say, Ben, why would you?
Why would you want to be like that? Ben, I'll
fire your ass if you do that. Ben, You get
paid to give opinions as the season is going on.
But these dopes like that Robbie the merrit fan, No, No,
you should just wait. It's only it's only game four
out of seventeen. I'm Robbie the burner fed. I don't
(19:55):
want to be offended. Oh my god, how about you
go out there. I have a crap performance, your stupid
envy big quarterback Josh Allen, suck Pathenic pathenic, Josh Allen,
my fat ass, Josh Allen. Stop. Let's go the phones.
(20:16):
Ryan is in Burbank, as some like to call it, Hello, Ryan,
what's up? You're on Fox Sports Radio?
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Ah?
Speaker 5 (20:23):
Big Ben, Yes, I'm gonna be overreactionary here. Do you
remember Ben in the summer when Horbaugh was trying to avoid,
you know, getting sanctioned, you know VI, you know, the
NCAA because of his Michigan transgressions. And he's like, you
know what, I'm gonna go to Los Angeles and I'm
(20:45):
gonna be amongst the slabs and this really cool city,
and I got this sweet stadium, and I got this
amazing MVP caliber quarterback that everyone says is great, Justin Herbert,
and I'm going to implement the worst offense ever for
Justin Herbert. And my question is, watching the Charger game today,
(21:08):
does that look like any other different Charger game you've
ever watched. I was like, like, did you watch it?
And you're like, yeah, the charge is still gonna lose.
You're finding a way to lose. Does Herbert look like terrible?
They look like they're running some horrid nineteen seventy style
NFL office.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Yeah, well that's that's because they are. Yeah, I mean Ryan,
you know that. I mean that's what Harball believes, whether
he'll be proven right or not, that that's how you
win in the playoffs. Now, if they play like they
did on Sunday, they won't be in the playoffs, so
it won't really matter. But the argument is that you
win that way in the in the plus. But yeah,
that was that was futile. I mean, they had no
(21:46):
they were trying it keps, trying to run the ball.
It can't run the ball nothing.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
I'm watching the.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Game, bo and I'm like, why are you paying this
quarterback fifty whatever how many million dollars a year and
he's throwing like five yard outs. I'm like, what is
this kept playing? Trent Silfer.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Yeah, well that's but that is also ninety five percent
of NFL offenses. If you watch these other teams play,
it's the same way. I mean, they very rarely throw
the ball down the field, even the guys that have
big yardage totals, it's usually the yards after the catch.
They don't. Most of the teams don't throw the ball
down the field. But yeah, it was. That was bad.
I mean the Chiefs turned the ball over the first
couple of times, and he had a ten to nothing lead,
(22:23):
and they had eight other possessions and did nothing with
those other eight possessions. They punted six times, missed the
field goal, and I think they turned it over on
downs and in Chances City lost like their their stud
receiver to Rashie Rice, who's gonna be out for the
entire year.
Speaker 5 (22:41):
Again, I'm watching this game, Ben and again it was
like as as somebody who just listened to all the
fervor all year. I'm just going, this is nothing different
about this team. Nothing.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Well, at least there there is consistency though, Ryan, for
the Chargers. They can change coaches, they can change players,
but and the consistency of teasing you with early leads
and then vanishing for big chunks of time. That's the Chargers.
So that's all right, thank you, Ryan. All right, Eddie,
would you like to defend the Chargers? You're part of
(23:14):
the Charger what are you like super fan club or
something like that? Is that what you call that group?
I don't know, but no defense, that was it's nothing
you want to hear. Let me. Yes, you're gonna say, oh,
they were injured and yeah, yeah, okay, that's that's not
not for this. Maybe some other shows can take that,
but not this, not here. You guys should be called
(23:34):
the batteries, get it, because your team is the Chargers,
So you guys are batteries as fans, but not rechargeable batteries, rechargeable. Yeah,
it's great. At least they covered the spread. So that's see.
That was a good loss. That's a good loss. They
were we did the TV show. At the time we
did the TV show, the line was eight. They lost
by seven. So that's a good loss, outstanding, all right,
(23:58):
Way to go.

(24:25):
it depends on what you think is the term fun.
But Anthony Richardson, High Faluton, first round pick out of
Florida barely played for the Gators. But Anthony Richardson has
now played out of a possible twenty one career NFL games.
He has played eight of a possible twenty one NFL
(24:46):
career games. He has finished four of those eight games
due to injury, so he hasn't finished rather so, he's
only finished out of twenty one games in his career.
There's only four games that he's played and finished. He
has overall played in just eight games. But half the
time he plays, he gets hurt. He got hurt in
(25:06):
the game against the Steelers, which wow, the Colts ended
up winning. They were victorious Indianapolis, so winning that game,
beating up Pittsburg Steelers, and they led that game by
a wide march on seventeen early seventeen point lead in
that game, and they end up winning that. But Anthony Richardson,
(25:28):
we'll see if he's able to play in the next
game for the Colts, but he is at out skis
in that particular game. Let's see here. Matt the Warrior
Raider fan says, don't forget we had hot WNBA playoff
action on Sunday two. Yeah, I'm good on that. But
maybe Eddie will mention that I don't know, or Angry
(25:51):
Bill will have his pants off he'll call up and
talk about that. I don't know. Masshole Mickey writes, and
he says, so great to hear you and your crew.
It was a rough weekend listening to WNBA and President's
Cup talk. I don't know who is doing that. I
have no idea. Let's see, Andy writes and says, excellent
monologue about Buffalo, No more strutting. I didn't get to
(26:13):
watch the game, though I was seeing Judas Priest and
others that louder than life in Louisville, Kentucky. And he
points out here the FSR tech Queen Lorraina, can we
get a little living after midnight as a bump for
the Malard militia. So he's questing Lorena atoon she is
(26:36):
in charge of all the music. I have nothing at
all to do with any of the music, but I'm
not in charge of imaging, so don't get at me.
Do you think the listener knows the difference between music
and imaging? They expect me to know sports, so they should.
No radio there you go, No no chance, zero chance,
(26:59):
zero zero zero. Let's go back to the phones. We'll

This is all about. This is all about going to
twenty twenty and zero with everybody else's washed up players
because they want to play with the Michael Jortons for
the Michael Jorton of Kansas City. I got to tell
you our ratings are going to go down. Man. These
these other teams need to just capitulate and know that
(28:29):
the end is coming and and then go play shootout
ball with it. I'm getting I'm getting really bored of
these other teams just trying to shit on the ball
and and and I want to when I when I
relax on a Sunday afternoon. I like to I like
to watch offense. I like to watch the ball going
(28:51):
back and forth. I don't need to watch these These
losers like hardball. These crooked losers shit on the ball
and enjoy my This is all about my enjoyment of
what I want to see.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
I'd like to see this.
Speaker 6 (29:05):
Cheeter Harball screwed up my my, my Sunday after afternoons.
I want to have a good I want to have
a good time.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
I want to hold on. Wait, didn't Harball do everything
you wanted? They played bad football. They were a boring team,
isn't don't you want to what are you doing? Shouldn't
you be complimenting Jim Harbaugh? The Chargers will never win
anything playing that brand of football. They're losers.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Well, no, this is this.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
Is about me personally.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
So you would rather have the Chargers played better football
so the game's more enjoyable. But it was ten to
nothing late in the second quarter.
Speaker 6 (29:40):
You were down that they already hired a cook as
their coach, So so I want him to lose in
the most humiliating way possible. So I want him to
be embarrassed on the national stage.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Well aren't you. Aren't you bearing the lead though? Wait
wait wait wait, hold in the in the lead, that
there's clearly problems between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey, that
she did not she didn't show up to the game.
Is in l A right, everyone wants to go to LA.
All the little celebrity fans live in LA, and she
didn't getting to it. She didn't show up, she wasn't there.
(30:15):
What's going on? Is it the end of the romance?
Speaker 6 (30:18):
I've heard rumor, I've heard rumors that they got a
contract that this this this confirms my point, Oh that
Taylor Swift needs Travis much more. This confirms what I think.
All yeah, contract to break up. Apparently that this week
(30:38):
she's gonna go find another another hot, hot boy friend
that he Travis was just a flavor of the month,
and she's gonna write songs that are that are gonna
take a crap on.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Them that better.
Speaker 6 (30:51):
Her Poe ratings are going down? Did you know that?
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Yeah, that's true. In fact, I was talking and you
don't know this, but I was talking to Lorraina and
she told me that no one ever bought us song
of Taylor Swift before she started hanging out with Aric Kelsey.
Speaker 6 (31:04):
That's right. And on the new NBC News poll released Friday,
since she her ratings are going down from forty to
thirty three percent. So she's gonna get ready to Travis
to have it her popular I.
