Recorded right after the Buffalo Bills’ 30–10 win over the New York Jets, this episode of Billified: The Bill Moran Podcast comes to you from Greg Connors’ backyard! Bill welcomes Greg Connors of Connors & Ferris, Dan and Kevin’s son Tyler for an episode full of NFL talk, Bills insights, and some hilarious personal stories.

The crew kicks things off by recapping Sunday’s close NFL matchups before diving into Buffalo’s 2–0 start to the 2025 season. Greg shares his biggest concerns about the Bills’ defense, and Dan revisits Josh Allen’s controversial comments to fans who left the Ravens game early. Bill and Greg loved Allen’s leadership moment, while Dan strongly disagreed—sparking a great debate on fan loyalty.
From there, the conversation shifts to:
  • Greg’s firsthand experience at the Bills’ comeback win in Baltimore
  • Whether Russell Wilson can salvage his career
  • Greg’s bold prediction on which NFL coach could be fired by Friday
  • The possibility of Brian Daboll being on the hot seat with the Giants
  • Tyler’s perspective as a high-level hockey player—including his funniest “embarrassing dad” stories
  • What it takes to pass a driver’s test (and why most adults might fail today)

Along the way, Greg opens up about his biggest fears, Tyler shares his nerves about retaking his driver’s test, and Bill recalls his own terrifying (and funny) moments learning how to drive. Plus, the guys look ahead to Thursday night’s big matchup against the Miami Dolphins in Buffalo.
This episode blends great Buffalo Bills insights, NFL hot takes, and personal laughs you love from Billified!

Speaker 1 (00:06):
On location and driven by Victor Chrystlin dods Gie Brown.
It's Billified the Bill Moran Podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Well, hello and welcome from the backyard of Greg Conners
where we just watched the Bills. I mean I didn't
see that coming. I did not see that any of
that coming. I think, what was it in the end,
thirty to ten? They got like a garbage touchdown Tenorron
Taylor in the end, Yes, yeah, just a junker one.
But the other games have been so exciting, like, yeah,
the NFL is like very exciting right now as these

(00:48):
games are light. I mean, we just watched our games.
Russell Wilson launched one over.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
Kyri Is at forty yards Yeah, yeah, forty five yards
over kyr Elim to Malik Neighbors. Oh and Eram has
his hand neighbors face mask, never still catches the.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Ball like he fell right into his And that was
a beautiful threat, beautiful, beautiful, unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
Bengals won without Joe Burrow was.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
Great, I think.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
And then New England. Are you a fan of New
England because of your dad?

Speaker 5 (01:17):
Oh yeah, I am.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
All right, Tyler sitting in Hevin's here, but he said
you get out there and in there, Tyler's in there.
So but that game, like, I love seeing that. Greg
has a hot take.

Speaker 6 (01:30):
Yeah, the hot take is with the Dolphins loss the
way that they did down in Miami. It's a short
week coming into Buffalo. They're gonna be coming in the
Orchard Park Thursday night. I think the Bills are rolling.
I think they're feeling good as long as they can
get healthier and stay healthy on defense if they get beat,
like the Bills just beat the Jets. Daniels fired on

(01:53):
Friday morning, and I don't know if he gets maybe
on the flight back home, he might have to take
his own flight out of Buffalo.

Speaker 4 (01:58):
He's gonna get beat so bad.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
And I don't know if he gets hired as a
head coach again after some of the stupid stuff that
comes out of his mouth after losses, like you can't
be cute at the at the podium when you get
your butts kicked.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
Yeah, he may just be a coordinator.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
Yeah, I mean yeah, I could see him going back
to San Francisco and work with Kyle Shanahan and being
his right hand guy because the guy knows offense. Oh wow, wow, just.

Speaker 6 (02:27):
Forty yard field goal to tie it against the Giant
stable the Rochester U of R Grad Western New York.

Speaker 4 (02:36):
Guys just hate in life right now.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
I am.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
I keep watching these games and I'm waiting for some
day Jerry Jones is just going to keel over in
that week, right because this has got to get so
stressful for that guy.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
Well he's not just the owner, Billy, he's the general manager.
To see the Dallas Cowboys.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
But it's uh, I have not watched. I have not
watched the.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
I've only watched some of it.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
I've watched the first three up episodes. I love it. Yeah,
I think it's fantastic because I lived that. I lived
during that. I watched football all the Bill's Super Bowls.
Yeah yeah, And like meanwhile, here come like the Cowboys
who were awful all of a sudden four years they've
they won a Super Bowl. Five years, they win two,
seven years they win three and the third one they
went without Jimmy Johnson on autopilot basically because Barry Switzer

(03:20):
like not a pro coach. Yeah right, you know they
have him in the same since Jerry's ego.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
But it's Jerry, like Jerry, I don't know any other
team in the NFL. They just showed him on TV
where the first person they talked to is the owner.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Yes, they don't go to the coach.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
They don't go to dak you know, it's usually the
first person to comment is Jerry.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:39):
Because well when they introduced Jerry Jones when he bought
the team, they had just fired Tom Landry before he
even bought the team. They introduced him at the press conference.
Tex Shram was the GM and the Cowboys. He goes,
I want his job, yeah, and Tex Shram right there
knew his job. It was over. Yeah, you know, his
career in football was over at that moment, but it

(03:59):
was it was the Jimmy Johnson hire that set the
Cowboys up for the next fifty years. Right, They've been
living off that totally. They've been totally living off that
because the eighties they were like, remember the Big Dallas
Curse when the TV show Dallas existed. The Cowboys couldn't win,
the couldn't get to the Super Bowl. Then Dallas canceled,
Dallas gets canceled, and then they beat the Bill.

Speaker 6 (04:21):
I didn't know that the Dallas I never told that. Yeah, yeah,
I love about this podcast. I learned so much from
this podcast.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Well, Danny's a plethora of knowledge over there.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
I don't know how just so many things, all right.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
The Buffalo Bills, I mean, even the guys uh, Tony
Romo and Jim Nantz were talking about the team and
saying things like they could go undefeated, or they could
be they could be like bye week nine possibly what
eight and o going into the Kansas City game.

Speaker 6 (04:54):
Yeah, and that game's at home.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
And that game's at home, and that makes you a
little bit nervous when you hear these sorts of things.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
It depends on who are most Bills fans like, yeah, baby,
I know, I always feel like it, is it a
jinx thing?

Speaker 2 (05:10):
Look, we watched Josh Allen today leave the game for
the first time. I don't ever remember seeing that, and
know is he.

Speaker 6 (05:17):
Yeah, like concerned for us? And we were watching it
in the man cave. Was you know, is it a concussion?
Now he walked off and he was you couldn't tell.
You weren't sure if he was like hallucinating or had
something going on, or was his broken nose.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
You know.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
Fortunately, in terms of the reports, it looks like it's
a broken nose.

Speaker 6 (05:36):
But I mean he is He's the catalyst of this,
not just the offense but the defense. He gives the
defense energy. And without him on that field, that team
is a very different team.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Right.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
And when you saw that, like at first we didn't know,
and then you started to think, ooh, concussion right with
the nose. Clearly it didn't seem to affect him too
much when he got back.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
In the game.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
I mean, you think about the you get hitting the nose,
the first thing that happens is your vision goes likes
you well up, you can't see right, It's it's in the.

Speaker 4 (06:07):
Paint's cruciating evable.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
Well, you broke one that went through You broke your
nose that went through the skin.

Speaker 6 (06:12):
Yeah, I have a I have a scar here on
my notes the bridge of my nose. The bone popped
through it, and then the dockhead and that was I
can't even I've never experienced anything like that.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Crooked nose from uh getting hit in the face, but
that from boxing. Yeah, well, this wasn't really fun. I
might have been a street fight guy named Beers. I
beat him Beers, yes, and I beat him once.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
In a fight.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
And then UFC, this is this just one the uh,
this is like way back in like early nineties. And
then at the next party, he came up to me,
goes remember me, and then I turned my head and
he just unloaded, unloaded, unloaded. I was on the ground bleeding,
didn't know it's the whole thing. But I had busted

(07:01):
my nose before. But they can set it, yeah, you know,
you can set it back. This time I didn't.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
It didn't.

Speaker 6 (07:06):
Yeah, they pulled it down and set it in the skin.
Ultimately healed up.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
But yeah, it was nervous.

Speaker 6 (07:12):
I was nervous because I mean, it wasn't necessarily that
this game. It's like, what impact does Josh having terms
of getting hurt for the duration?

Speaker 1 (07:20):
Right? You know?

Speaker 4 (07:21):
Is it short terms at long term? I mean, mister
Bisky came in.

Speaker 6 (07:23):
First pass, boom, great pass, first down, moved the chains.
Fortunately Josh was able to come back and there wasn't
any issues the uh yeah, and Josh.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Did come back.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
And of course we now know thirty to ten and
a lot of rushing yards. How many yards did he
throw for? Because I'm seeing Russell Wilson through for almost
over four hundred.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
No, I don't think Allen threw for that man, No,
he didn't it was a very like low key, low key.
He didn't, he didn't.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
Coleman looked pretty good. Yeah, a couple of look good,
look good. Well, what is your concerns through for one
hundred and forty eight yards? Oh see that seems low
for him? It is low.

Speaker 3 (07:57):
You know, passer rating is seventy three. Okay, I mean
that's not that's a pedestrian game for Josh Allen, that's okay.

Speaker 6 (08:03):
Yeah, Kevin was saying how it hurt him in his
parlay or whatever, Josh, but you know the Bill's got
to win. Yeah, no, no, no, stay away from that.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
Well, the what concerns do you have when you look
at the team as they go forward? Because I mean
Greg gets in there expectedly like a coach. She'll even
get upset when certain players are called. And you know,
why aren't we doing this? How come that? Where's the
guy off the end? I mean Bosa looked fairly good today?

Speaker 6 (08:32):
Yeah, well that that that the on the third down,
Bosa got up the field and and uh fields got
outside him and then he ran for like forty yards
zig zag him through the freaking defense and he's got
to get up the field. Right, You got the edge
guy Bosa's and he and Bosa's good and he had
a great play, came back from behind, knocked the ball loose,
which was huge, and that like that second or third possession.

Speaker 4 (08:54):
But you got to get up the field.

Speaker 6 (08:55):
You got to turn him back inside, so then your
interior line and your line backers are filling. You get
outside and then all then he's got the full field.
He's got from the sideline into where he is, and
then everything else, everything else opens up because he got
your secondary that's retreating, your linebackers that are flowing, which
creates lanes and cut back on anyway, So what's what

(09:16):
for me, the concern is the safeties. And you know
last week we couldn't stop the run. Lamar had his
way with us. But then you had Ed Oliber step
up and just make a play. That's really what gave
the Bills a chance last week. So was yes, at
the defense made the play. And in the past, Josh Is,

(09:37):
the offense has always shown up and made plays, but
the defense hasn't. So last week against the Ravens, that
was a great I think that's a great momentum thing,
and I think it's great for the Bills to have
the defense step up to make the play to bring
them back into that game, to give him a chance
to win. And this week the defense shows up. I
mean they gave up ten literally, they gave up three

(09:57):
isshes and so having the defense, having that defense show
up like that is huge. And you know the crazy
thing about this Dolphins coming in on Thursday, short week
they put a big points against the Steelers, which shocked me.
I thought they'd put up more points against the Patriots,
and so it's like, you know, can this defense, how
is the defense? The personality and the success of this

(10:20):
team as long as Josh and the offense stays relatively healthy,
is who shows up on the d So my concern is.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
The d okay, I mean, and that's fair, and I
think there was everybody's concern even last week watching the game.
But take me back to that, because you were at
the game, when are.

Speaker 1 (10:37):
You gonna do this?

Speaker 3 (10:38):
Hit the chimes?

Speaker 4 (10:39):
Are you gonna do this?

Speaker 2 (10:43):
You left early? Is that I wasn't gonna give you
ship for that. I was not gonna give you ship
for that at all. I totally get that. I mean,
going to a Bills game is it's it's job, right,
I mean in a way, it's enjoyable. It's a hell
of a lot of fun. But you to pack up,
get everybody. You get up there, you park, you get
settled in. Now you get into the stadium and it's like,

(11:06):
I got to get home. I got a job, you
own a business. I totally get that.

Speaker 4 (11:10):
Yeah, you know.

Speaker 6 (11:11):
And we've had Dan and I have a different take
on the whole Josh comment.

Speaker 4 (11:15):
I have appreciated.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Yeah, me too.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
I didn't care for I love Josh all, don't you
get wrong. But it's like he said it twice. It
was very passive aggressive. You gotta believe in us. It
wasn't you, dude. It was your defense. And people gotta.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
Work, he's saying us. I don't think he's I think
he talks about the whole team.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
I know what he means. I know what he means.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
But the point was like, it's a Sunday night, people
have to work Monday, more set and you're getting their
head a They had a point nine, not a nine
point zero percent chance of winning. They had a point
nine less than one percent chance of coming back after
that run by Taylor where he was dead to rights
in the ends, I'm sorry Lamar Jackson. He was dead
to rights in the end Z and then the touchdown
by Henry. I would have walked out too.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
I want the quarterback to say that.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
I want the quarterback to be cocky and say things
because I don't think I certainly didn't take it as
a fan like, oh, how dare you? I took it
as a hey, gotta stick around.

Speaker 6 (12:06):
This is a show, and this is a show, and
to me that was the demonstration of why Josh Allen
is a great leader.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
Got a home improvement conundrum. Time to call in the superheroes.

net because every home needs a hero Mac of All Trades. Tyler,
what happens like since Greg brought you up? What happens

(12:58):
in a game where you're down like that and all
of a sudden something one play and you can just
feel the energy shift toward your team.

Speaker 5 (13:05):
Have you had that, Yeah, so, say Jesus.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
Tyler plays hockey at a pretty elite level.

Speaker 5 (13:11):
Yeah, so we go down by a goal. You know,
you enter right back, you feel that spark and you're
like hey, and even the crowd, the crowd gets you
into it too. Like at some of the high school games,
you know, you have two student sections that are just
going nuts, like they get into it. They start chanting,
they start and then all the parents are yelling to
and just one one little thing can spark a huge thing,

(13:34):
and one big hit, one big hit. Get yeah, everyone
banging their sticks on the board.

Speaker 4 (13:39):
Like you did last year. And was it in the
finals or what was it one of the hockey games
I was at with your dad.

Speaker 6 (13:44):
You had a nice you made a great play that
got the whole energy going everybody, your teammates got into it.

Speaker 4 (13:50):
And that's the thing.

Speaker 6 (13:51):
And as a fan, yes, that's what Josh is saying,
is that, look, we're gonna give you that chance be
there for that.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Is when is your dad embarrassed you at the game.
I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
I mean.

Speaker 5 (14:04):
Last game, well, he knows.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
The game so well. Last game.

Speaker 5 (14:09):
It wasn't like it wasn't like embarrassing.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
But walk home again, I got he wanted to walk home.
I like Nona Falls Canada.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
That's right.

Speaker 5 (14:19):
So the game Friday was at Lake Shore and I
kind of take the puck from out of the corner
to the middle of the ice and shoot it and
I get like knocked over after it, and I'm like
skating to the face off that, and all of a sudden,
I look up and I hear my dad going, you're
really gonna take You're really gonna take that.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
But that's what you're right, that kind of what does
that do to you? Does it fire you up?

Speaker 1 (14:37):
Well?

Speaker 5 (14:38):
But I think I'm pretty sure a couple of points
later I scored right after that. Yeah, that that happens
a lot too. I'll come down the left side and
I'll try to pick a corner and I kind of
sail it over and I hear shoot better from about
I want to say, four dads on our team.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
Is it true that, like when you're playing Canada, if
you have a bad game, your dad said you want
to be tariffed. I will you right now.

Speaker 5 (15:07):
Hockey there is nuts. I had a tournament over the
spring in Canada, and that's my first time going over
to Canada, like playing Canadian teams, and I was like,
holy shit, this is like a different level is it that.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
Same age same age group? And what why? Why do
you think it's it's just all they do all That's.

Speaker 5 (15:25):
All they do over there. It's just straight training and all.
Like some of these teams, like you pay so much
money and it guarantees you like four ice sessions a
week off ice workouts and other stuff, and these these
guys are just some of these guys are just nuts.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
What do you do?

Speaker 2 (15:44):
So when you're in a situation like that, is it
intimidating to you? Because now you're you went and played
on for a Canadian team, right, so you're with the
kids that are getting all that. But you seem to
your dad said you fit in.

Speaker 5 (15:56):
Yeah. I want to say the first tournament, I was
kind of like ify because I didn't really know what
to expect. N we kind of had we had another tournament,
and I kind of just settled in more. I think
throughout the tournament. The first time, I settled in a
little bit, but I think at the second tournament I
settled in a lot more.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
Yeah, I mean, you know.

Speaker 6 (16:12):
And that's the thing about right in anything you do
in life is it you walk in you don't know
where you fit, do I actually belong? And when when
you figure out you belong, then you get your confidence,
then you get in and you work into it. And
in terms of you know, being held accountable is that
you know, there's a certain expectation that you have on
a team, and there's a certain expectation that you have

(16:34):
in an organization and when somebody falls below it a
lot of times, and I think the younger generation gets
offended by people that hold you accountbles like you need
to do better than that. And I think our generation
are us old guys now, I think we want to
be We're more deferential because we don't want to offend someone,
we don't want to hurt someone's feelings, we don't want

(16:55):
to get in trouble. And so holding somebody accountable through
the generation know gabs, it's actually difficult to navigate.

Speaker 3 (17:04):
Got picked off.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
He did horrible, throw horrible. Russell Wilson to me, was
a hall of Fame quarterback.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
Oh yeah, he was already like headed there.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Right leaving Seattle.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
He then goes to Denver and I feel like it
was just a ship show after that.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
Like the guy's whole career, Like, I don't think he's
getting in. I thought that, I asked you today.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
He's now on his third team, right, and with New
York that was a beautiful pass to get them.

Speaker 4 (17:37):
But it's like man until Dallas kicked out sixty.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
If Eli Manning gets in the Hall of Fame, you
have to put Russell in there. But Russell. But like
Russell's legacy, like after that interception in the Super Bowl
against the Patriots, right, his career has gone backwards.

Speaker 6 (17:52):
Yeah, well Danny, you say that, and and with all
due respect, it's because of the numbers. But Eli didn't
go on onto another team after New York and Falter
and found.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
No, he didn't three times, No I knows, but he
Eli's whole career was based on winning those two Super
Bowls the Patriots, but then he did nothing else.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
That's that. That's the thing.

Speaker 6 (18:17):
So as a Bills fan, that's again I'm an.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
Eli man and guy. I mean, I hope he gets in,
but I think Russ should too. But Russ's career has
just gone sideway that interception, and he doesn't do himself
any favor. The story about Russell is that he is
a poser, that the guy you see at the podium
and the guy you see on camera is not the
guy that he really is, Okay, and it rubs people

(18:42):
the wrong way that Kyle Brandt tells this great story
where he's at the NFL Honors a couple of years ago.
Russell Wilson's walking in with Sierra, his wife, and Kyle's
supposed to interview goes to interview him, and Russ puts
his hand up, like, don't.

Speaker 1 (18:54):
Talk to me.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
Really, guy was a Man of the Year candidate won
the Man of the.

Speaker 4 (19:00):
Year, So you are you want to know who the
Man of the year is? And then look everybody.

Speaker 6 (19:07):
Everybody knows this because you hear these stories. But I
can give you like personal accounts. So I have a
good friend that's down in New York for the game today.
He drove down with his son for his birthday, and
he stood out in front of the hotel down in
Jersey City, and the team gets on the plant, gets
on the gets on the bus, going into the stadium
and there's only four or five people.

Speaker 4 (19:28):
Standing out there.

Speaker 6 (19:29):
And uh, players come in and a couple of the
guys come over and say hi to this thirteen year
old kid and it's his birthday. And he's like, yeah,
we came all the way from Rochester from my this
is my birthday present is to come to this game
with my dad and my buddy.

Speaker 4 (19:44):
And they got out on the bus.

Speaker 6 (19:45):
Josh walked in, didn't know any better, walks on the
bus and a couple of guys on the on the
bus told Josh that this kid came all the way
from Rochester for his birthday. Josh got off the bus
and went took a picture with him, wishm happy birthday,
then got on the bus to go to game.

Speaker 4 (20:01):
That's Josh Allen. Who who else does that?

Speaker 6 (20:03):
I don't know And there weren't any cameras. Josh has
no idea who this kid is. He doesn't know that
we know him, and and but that's just the person
he is, Yeah, human being that he is.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
You look to me, Josh Allen is getting into what
I would call the Michael Jordan air in terms of celebrity, right,
And I remember why I watch it probably far too
many times, but the last dance, I probably watched it
three or four times, to be quite honest with you,
and I'm always.

Speaker 3 (20:31):
Only four times took.

Speaker 5 (20:34):
Like.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
But the guy would make the time like I mean,
you had to protect your time.

Speaker 1 (20:40):
You've got to set boundaries, There's no no doubt. But
he he would.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
Go before games and he'd be laughing with it, and
I'm going, how quickly do you have to get your head.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
In the game? Right?

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Josh had the bus ride. I get all that, but
you're right, it's the same kind of thing. You go
out of the way to create the fan who won't
leave the stadium.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
That's what we're trying to do it. That's what Joshua
and he did, which.

Speaker 3 (21:02):
He has done as Tony Robins.

Speaker 6 (21:05):
Prescott just ran down to get him in the field
goal arrange to beat the Giants. Could Dabo get fired
before Mike McDaniel.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
Yes, yes, but don't I don't think you don't think
will they fired?

Speaker 5 (21:17):
No?

Speaker 3 (21:18):
No, they he I don't think Davie's gonna get fired.
I think the Titian, the Merrat family, they really like him,
but they're giving him like one last shot and they
let they let him pick their quarterback, you know, Jackson Dart,
So you're not gonna fire the guy. And then you know,
all of a sudden, the next administration is stuck with
this young quarterback sitting there and two other guys you signed.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
And how many times have we seen that happen?

Speaker 6 (21:38):
After the last throw by Russell Wilson to turn the
ball over to give Dallas a chance to win this game.
Jackson Dart might get his first start next week.

Speaker 1 (21:47):
Yeah too soon?

Speaker 3 (21:48):
No no, no, no, he's not. He's not gonna get
that start until at least November. Mike Francessen was talking
about it. There's too many big games coming up. They
got Philadelphia next week, then they got Ah, then they
got a short I think it's a short week coming out.
I mean, it's gonna be too hard to do that,
to throw Jackson Dart to the Wolves, but it's gonna be.
And not to mention, they're also paying Russell Wilson ten

(22:08):
million dollars. You're not gonna pay themillion dollars will start
two games?

Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yeah, true, So I.

Speaker 3 (22:12):
Don't think that's happening. I think that you know, Dart's
gonna probably play in the second half of the season.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
Okay, we'll see that.

Speaker 2 (22:19):
Will you talk about almost going to New York if
you want to stay away from that, I.

Speaker 4 (22:24):
Mean for today's game.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
I mean we've been trying to get.

Speaker 6 (22:29):
To New York for the last three years, but the
weather when the Bills has been going down has been horrible.
And we were gonna get out on a plane last
year and it was all weather and we went to
get down this private plane and it was like a
crop duster, and Bryce, the kid who's birthday is this weekend,
he and I.

Speaker 4 (22:48):
Looked at each other.

Speaker 6 (22:49):
We got on the plane and he and I were
like scared shitless, like there's not a chance in hell
I'm gonna jump on this plane to fly down there.
And when they were going down, I just we bowed
out and said, yeah, we're gonna watch it back here.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
I mean, was it just YouTube were uncomfortable with us?

Speaker 5 (23:07):
Uh?

Speaker 6 (23:08):
Yeah, I mean, well Jennifer were. They were okay, They
were okay, because you get.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
That gut feeling sometimes I go, you're better off, right,
But both.

Speaker 6 (23:17):
The Bill and Jennifer like like crazy roller coasters too. Yeah,
I'm not a big roller coaster guy. Death just seemed
too close to the window for me.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
Well, you know the Leonard Skinners story. Do you know
who was supposed to own that plane?

Speaker 1 (23:30):
No Aerosmith.

Speaker 3 (23:31):
Aerosmith's pilot toward the plane, it said, no, no.

Speaker 1 (23:35):
Really this plane.

Speaker 5 (23:36):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
Have you been to Leo's Baker and Deli and East
Rochester recently?

Speaker 3 (23:40):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (23:40):
You got to get there.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
They're open every day, so it's very convenient. It'll satisfy
your sweet tooth, your sandwich cravings.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
Get the Cubano tell.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Them Billified said to have the Cubano sandwich, fresh baked bread,
hand crafted pastries, deli favorites, and desserts like canols that'll
make you rethink your self control. It's all waiting for you.

Speaker 5 (24:00):
You.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
So, what's the best thing about Leo's Everything? Check him
out a desk, best drive in East Rochester because every
day is a good day for Leo's. Because the best
thing about Leo's is everything.

Speaker 3 (24:12):
Well, it sounded like the Bills responded to McDermott this week.
Mcderm he had him practicing and pads this week and
on Wednesday, like heavy pads. In other words, like we're
gonna go at it, and he he sounded feisty during
the press conferences. Not only they don't pay much attention
to what said in press conferences. Mcderm's press conferences are
long and he says nothing. But apparently his tone this
week was very, very like, we gotta get things done,

(24:35):
we gotta work better, we gotta be smarter. We should
have probably he didn't say we should have lost the game,
but he alluded to the fact that the defense was
not up to snuff last week. Okay, so that one.
So they showed up. But I want, I want. There's
two things. One, justin fields, okay, is a media creation
at quarterback. He was awful today. He had nothing, He's
had nothing, He's never had anything in the NFL, and

(24:57):
yet he gets propped up. I don't know why, but
he's never been an NFL caliber starter. No, he's just
he's just not.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
Yeah, because he's not, he's not. And I think I
think a lot of people thought it was a bad system.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Yeah, Aaron Klem's gonna get his quarterback next year. It's not.
This is gonna be the year where okay, this is
gonna be the the tryout year for everybody. Then he's
gonna get his guy in place. And his offensive coordinator.

Speaker 6 (25:20):
The way the season are now, he's gonna have a
top five pick, maybe top three.

Speaker 3 (25:24):
Absolutely. The other thing too, the Bills had a couple
of big plays that they just they just got momentum.
I mean they had. You gotta remember that first drive
after the Jets went three and down the first drive,
the Bills had a third and nineteen and a rough
in the passer penalty. I mean, like that they were
dead the right roughing the passer penalty got the Bills
in position, and then Cooks scored the touchdown, and then
Bosa gets the fumble, you know, and then it gets

(25:46):
you a Podesta recovered it. The Bill's gonna field goal
off that. And also the Jets just kind of like, yeah,
we're done, Yeah, we're done.

Speaker 1 (25:55):
Not too uh.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
I love listen to series because he can go to
the Jets call.

Speaker 3 (26:02):
Is a Yankee fan. I always listened to the opponent.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
Yeah, a lot of times.

Speaker 3 (26:05):
I know what the Yanks people are gonna say. I
always listened to the opponents. The opponents call is always
more interesting because you learn about the other team.

Speaker 2 (26:12):
You know, guys, all right, right, Kevin is into a
little bit of gambling and stuff.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
What do you think for Thursday night? Who you betting?
What's your parlay? Not betting? Is it? What's the spread?

Speaker 4 (26:26):
And just said he's not betting. I don't think that's bullshit.

Speaker 3 (26:29):
I gotta I gotta change after.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
Bullshit after today. Yeah, I'm saying bullshit too. Well, they
may not, but I'm not.

Speaker 5 (26:39):
Let me.

Speaker 3 (26:39):
Let me pull it up for you.

Speaker 5 (26:40):
We'll be on the road, so I don't know if
he's gonna have much time to bet.

Speaker 4 (26:44):
Where are you going?

Speaker 5 (26:45):
I go to turn it up in Detroit this weekend?

Speaker 4 (26:47):
Nice?

Speaker 1 (26:48):
Yeah, Detroit.

Speaker 5 (26:50):
Our first game Fridays at eleven in the morning, so
we're gonna be Thursday.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
So that what? What league is this?

Speaker 5 (26:57):
So I'm in like four different leagues.

Speaker 4 (26:59):
I really don't like.

Speaker 5 (27:00):
I don't know which league is which kind of God Damn,
your dad loves you.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
I was just gonna say, I mean, that's that's that's love.

Speaker 5 (27:07):
It's all the same team, just different leagues.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
Oh, I got you. I got Oh it's nine and
a half right now.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
Well, Craig was right. I thought it would be six.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
And a half.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
I said between nine and a half and eleven and
a half.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Wow, it might go as high as eleven and that
when you go that high.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
So yeah, yeah, Dolphins Bills Bills nine and a half.
And then uh, the New England game Patriots stillers, want
to take a guess, Patriots Steelteelers at New England.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
Steelers at New England gets hit a.

Speaker 3 (27:35):
Point, a point and a half depending on where you're looking. Really,
so it's a push Patriots are getting. Yeah. So so
basically the Steelers your favorite, but it's in Foxboro.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah, so you get three points automatically. Yeah, the uh
so you get out of school for this?

Speaker 4 (27:48):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (27:48):
So actually I don't even have school Friday anyways, so
I'm not really missing anything Friday.

Speaker 4 (27:52):
But what Catholic collegeay is on Friday?

Speaker 3 (27:55):

Speaker 3 (30:02):
I was in church two weeks ago and our pastor
is talking about how he's that line. He's in line
for lunch somewhere and he sees a couple of hockey
dads and hockey players and on their phones are going
over the game. Hey what happened in that goal?

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (30:16):
He's like they're like ribbing their kids and they're like

Speaker 2 (30:25):
It's September, that's all right. So you feeling confident second
time going in?

Speaker 5 (30:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (30:36):
Yeah, what do you know? What? What they took failed
you on the last time? So how do you know?
Did you?

Speaker 5 (30:44):
Well? I was more worried about going over the speed
limit because if if you're going thirty six and the
thirty five is an automatic fail, So I was going
like thirty three. They marked me off on that, like
my k turns were Mike parallel park with fine was
a little too far from the curb.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
But okay, all right, but they didn't they didn't take it.
They take points off for that.

Speaker 5 (31:07):
I'm not sure if I'm pretty sure they did. Yeah, okay,
here we go.

Speaker 1 (31:11):
He's got it right.

Speaker 5 (31:11):
Here, here we go.

Speaker 6 (31:14):
Man, I failed mine first time, and Will when Will
took his, he failed his first time.

Speaker 4 (31:19):
I think Luke failed his too.

Speaker 5 (31:21):
But how many times Sam fell?

Speaker 1 (31:25):
Uh? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (31:27):
Parking back up and you turn successive space for parking
too far from curb, five points off, driving in traffic,
improper lane of traffic.

Speaker 5 (31:35):
So ne were just throwing under the bus here lane?

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Were you No, I did not.

Speaker 4 (31:40):
He was coming lane.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Passing over the double lines.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
Too slow, impedes traffic flow. That's fifteen points for going
like a little bit under the speed in it. But
they fail you automatically if you go over.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
Oh yeah, yeah, it's just too much in your head.
You know what I mean, that's too much in your head.

Speaker 5 (32:01):
But my mom told me so. I took a lesson
a few days before my test.

Speaker 1 (32:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (32:07):
The lady that I took my lesson with told my
mom that one hundred and forty six people took their
road test the same day I did, and only six
people passed.

Speaker 1 (32:13):
I believe that.

Speaker 6 (32:14):
I mean, so that was that the That means the instructor,
the whoever was approving was the son of a bit.

Speaker 1 (32:19):
They don't tell you at the at the moment, you
have to wait.

Speaker 6 (32:22):
So the bottom line is this what so what you
need to do? And I'm surprised your dad hasn't done
this for you yet. But are you a Triple A member? Okay,
so you take the Triple A driving course and then
the Triple A driving Course instructor.

Speaker 4 (32:40):
Will take you through the test.

Speaker 6 (32:41):
Oh, and then the Triple A after you do that
with them, and they'll tell you what you need to do,
and if they think that you're ready to take the test,
they will drive you to the test, not your parents.

Speaker 4 (32:53):
And then they always get into.

Speaker 1 (32:54):
A little less pressure and they get into the car.

Speaker 6 (32:57):
Well, no, the instructor, that the judge, the New York
State driving instructor, as I understand it, Well, then know
who these people are because they're part of the Triple
A system and they give the thumbs up, they give
the thumbs down.

Speaker 4 (33:09):
And as long as you're within the range of it,
you pass. If you're not, then you don't pass.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
All right, Well, we all love Buffalo in the Thursday
night game.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
That'll be an exciting one.

Speaker 4 (33:21):
Can't wait.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:22):
Oh, by the way, our buddy Juice, he had his
son over the weekend. Four Fields, that's his name.

Speaker 1 (33:27):
