Hey, I arrived almost here. Are you ready? Just grabbing my shoes. That's what you said 10 minutes ago. I just wrapped a video call, uploading this giant file on my tablet, looking at my watch group and Nana's with the group chat, and of course, still lining up tonight's playlist on my phone. All at once? Yep, story of my life. That's why I switched to D-Mobile. They have the fastest 5G network. Okay, multitasker. I see you. Honestly, I never imagined I could do all this at once.

The Buffalo Football Post Game Show here live on WGR is brought to you from 1812 tavern today. 5381 Abbott Road, streaming live on YouTube. Mike Schopen, the Bulldog here for another hour. Thanks for being with us. In fact, it'd be even cooler if you came in. Yeah, man. You could listen. You could watch, but you could also just sort of appear. That's available to you. Yeah, it's a good scene here. The patio is still some tables available on the patio and lots of room inside. So yeah, you don't want to slug it out in the traffic and are looking for somewhere to watch the four o'clock games and hang out with us. It's a good chance to do that. We've got a couple Baltimore Dallas from Rio, 107 Cowboys, Minnesota Tampa, also 107 Minnesota on top in that one. 803-050 will get your calls here in just a moment. Five turnovers. What do you do with it? I mean, there was talk in the Joe Brady press conference about certain ways to try to correct it. If I can see the ball, then they can see the ball.

Are you worried about cook twice in two weeks? That kind of thing. I don't know. For me, it's mostly a fluke. They did get not handled, but easily challenged up front in this game. For a lot of it, the turnovers were somewhat of a byproduct of it. But LA made it tough on them in the trenches in this game. And some of the turnovers came from that. Others are just like the King Cade play. What do you do about it? I don't know what you do about it. Yeah, I think, you know, you say the same thing about the cook play and even the cook fumble from week one. Or like, it's, you're getting caught from behind. And I think some awareness of the situation is in order there. Like to me, Cade, you know, there's a fine line. You want to get every yard you can. And he made a couple of people miss and extended that play by a good 10 or 12 yards. But by the time that ball gets popped out of there,

he is absolutely done getting people off of him. Like he's, he's correct. And yeah, that's just a moment where, if you, and maybe he's about to do it. But he's just a fraction late, getting the second arm over it. Go get to the ground, whatever you got to do. I mean, you, again, great effort. I'm sure he's thinking, I mean, I can, I can get away from another couple of guys here and score. But yeah, I mean, just some more awareness. Like nobody, what are you going to do with cook, right? I mean, you're not, you're not, he's the defending rushing leader in the lead at 154 yards today. You're not going to stop using him because he's fumbled twice in three games. I don't think. I think you're just going to hope that he's out of the fumbling 154. I mean, he did not feel like that kind of game at all. Let's go to the phones. Let's start with Chris here. Chris, welcome. Go ahead. Should tell TJ. I can't do it. So I need TJ to do it. There's, hi Chris.

Hi, I'm long time from North Buffalo. Two things. First of all, first half, little talk going. I got to say though, IGB had one heck of a game, man. One heck of a game. Love your thoughts. Thank you guys. Well, I mean, he got pressed in the duty. Benford, I don't know if Brady talked about it. I'm sure if he did, you didn't say anything. But you know, Benford loved this game. I don't know how serious they're not serious. That appears to be, but yeah, your outside corners were it been Oson and Max Harrison. And maybe you were playing the right opponent here. But I've liked IGB and Oson on paper, because I think he's longer and maybe a little more physical. And I'm interested. I thought there was a chance going into the summary that he could beat out Harrison for that job outright. But if Benford's going to miss any time, he's obviously pressed into service. And yeah, he had a couple of passes defense,

or at least one pass defense today, at a big break up of the pass. In the limited time, he was on the field, in the Houston game, in the opener. I didn't really see him that much against Detroit, to be honest with you. But yeah, I mean, good job when called on. Despite the uniform he came through. He wasn't. He wasn't someone who was just sort of shrinking from the moment because he had to wear that gray suit. So he got to give him credit for that. I think a lot of guys, that probably accounts for a lot of what's at A's mess really was about. You had to wear that in public. They made you. Not really what I signed up for. They didn't even fit. Why were the jerseys all like up here, and the pants were too much belly? As bad as they looked, it was even worse than that, because they didn't even fit. How do you get that wrong? Eric is next. Go ahead, Eric, welcome. Hey, how's it going? I'm happy to talk to you guys. Thanks for taking my call.

You're welcome. Like, and Mr. Bulldog, what a game. Honestly, what a game. I'm kind of surprised that you guys are so cranky over there. I feel like it is a fantastic win. Five turnovers. We come back. We win the game. James Cook looks like he is the MVP of the league at this point. I know that he's fumbled. Like, I'm sorry. Like, it's a fumble. It happens. Josh had two interceptions. It happens. Why are we so mad? I can't believe the negativity that I'm hearing on this radio. I don't know what you're talking about. And you're talking to someone who thinks James Cook could win the MVP award, which is insane. So if you're, if we're cranky to you, that's what you sound like to me. Is like, that's obviously something, something that someone would say that doesn't pay attention to how those kinds of things work. Sorry. He's not going to win the MVP. He was good. I didn't like the uniforms. Did I say anything else that would really be fairly construed as cranky?

Well, other than pointing out that they were fortunate that they were playing an inept team like the chargers who can't get out of their own way because they were full of mistakes today. And that's it. I don't know. That's crabby. That's just the reality. I mean, I don't know. This game, what the bills tried to give this game away. And they didn't. And that's to their credit. And like, I'm happy to, I'm on the New England here. Like, you know, awesome two game lead on the Patriots. And the Jets and the Dolphins. Yes. Miami's three back. They're in trouble now. And the lost each end. But, you know, I, I, it seems to me. I, I, I am not upset at all that they won the game. And, you know, I'll get over how sloppy they were. But that was a sloppy mess of a game. That's it. I don't know. You do you, man. Yeah. Hey, all right. It's almost here. Are you ready? Just grabbing my shoes. That's what you said 10 minutes ago. I just wrapped the video call uploading this giant file on my tablet, looking at my watch group of Nana's with the group chat.

And of course, still lining up tonight's playlist on my phone. All at once? Yep. Story of my life. That's why I switched to T-Mobile. They have the fastest 5G network. OK, multi-tasker. I see you.

Let's go to Mike Nex. Mike go ahead. Doing good afternoon, Go Bells. Big win. Just wouldn't love to see a dominant performance. I just worry about the side turnovers. I know it's really in the year. Not trying to make a big deal out of it, but we just got to clean it up. I was a little nervous that the Gergis was going to be a classic build. New Gergis were they don't perform on the white out gergis last year, but we found a way we needed it. We wanted a game, and I just we got to clean up the turnovers, and the really fumble made me, you know, but we'll take it over. So I don't know what the early fumble made you. So much negativity. Very cranky. Yeah, I'm really upset.

Yeah. I need to change the tenor of this program. Baltimore in the lead. Another Derek Henry touchdown to today. He feels Alan's footsteps on the all-time rushing touchdown list. That's what's happening. Henry, I think is top five. Two more already. Geez. 14-10 is that score. 10-10 in Tampa, Bucks tie it. Still first half. Saints Raiders. We got six-six. Sounds good. And San Francisco 14 Arizona three, all in the second quarter. Next up is Maddie. Go ahead Maddie, hi. Yeah, hey guys, thanks for taking the call. You're welcome. I just want to say it's nice to see a game one where Josh sucks. Usually when he sucks, we suck and we lose. I don't know if you think ghosts out there are just really ugly, gray jerseys. But yeah, it was nice to win the game five turnovers. Obviously you're not going to do that. I want to give credit where credit is due to the defense.

I think people like to hate on the defense a lot and they should, but they played really well today. And yes, that's all I'd like to say. I'll hang up and listen for your response. Thanks. Yeah, they did. I mean, the defense to have turned the ball over and be a sloppy, I think Brady said it. Was it five turnovers on eight drives? Yeah, he did say that. Holy, and to have only at that time, I think 13 points on the board is credit. Or 10 defense. I think they played the right opponent for that. Clearly, because the chargers were not in a position to capitalize enough on the gifts that they were given. And I do, I say gifts. I mean, I think, you know, you're not gonna fumble out. You know, you've made a play, right? Those plays were all forced fumbles. The interceptions, I mean, Alvin Allen sees the guy on the first one and the second one, I mean, more is just two got, there's two defenders that's open.

That's just a, that's a, you know, I don't know. That's an arm punt ostensibly. And, you know, it's a wild play. Is more, I think you said while we're watching it happen and I'm watching the replays, more I think went into like defender mode there. Yeah. And if he had stayed thinking as I can make this catch, I think he's gonna make the catch. I thought that. I think the guy who makes the interception sort of overruns it by a step or two and ends up coming back. And more is maybe taking his lead from him. He thinks, I don't know if he thinks he can't get there, whatever it is, I think the ball is kind of coming right to him. And if he had just, again, here I am at a bar telling you what I think PJ Moore should have done. But I think it's there, but he goes into defense mode and then the ball is bounced around and ends up in the other guy's lap. So kind of a fluky play. I mean, in general, again, I think the turnover thing takes care of itself. It's not every week. I mean, they fumbled twice in Houston

and had two near-miss interceptions that Houston dropped. Like, that's the same game, it's the same team. You know, but sometimes the bills didn't think today to recover their fumbles. They should have thought of that. Again, the Jersey's probably a distraction, I don't know. But they got away with it. I think we're talking about LA like their Miami. I think, again, I want to say, it's really just the little things that the bills, and I think it's Alan most, but they just don't, they don't blow it like other teams do with clock decisions. And I mean, jumping, it's not Alan that would have done this. It's not Herbert that did this, but the two twice on the same series near the end zone, they had fall starts. That kind of thing turns touchdowns into field goals. Second and goal at the one. That's three quarterback sneaks. You're almost 99.9% to score. Instead, fall start, and this quarterback, as big as he is,

doesn't really pose that threat. I mean, there's just no bull, it seems, in Justin Herbert. I mean, it's just kind of like, like Lawrence was. Last year, talking about that playoff game, like, just, you know, kind of, do you have another place that you're willing to go physically? Because our guy goes there every week. Yeah, physically and mentally, like, you know where the first down marker is. You know where you have to get to on fourth down scrambling. That's the big play from the Jacksonville playoff game. Last year, I think you were. Yes, to Lawrence about. And yeah, I'm not sure Herbert. I'm not sure he has that, I don't think he has that chip. They had a play early. So there are seven nothing right away. The cook fumble, seven nothing. They get the ball again, probably another turnover, right? And they're deep. And on whatever play it was, I wish I had it written down. Some sort of goal to go play, they go wide to keep and Mitchell. And like, okay, well, that could work.

But it's not really Ryan Paganetti would hate it. To put it one way, he would hate it. Like just, one thing football teams like to be proud of is showing off their being able to beat you and man to man up front. And I think this chargers team looked like they might have been capable of doing that today, especially on defense against the bills interior line. But then you go do, you know, you sort of running plays like that. And there's another one that turned into a field goal. They also missed a field goal today. That was, you know, makeable distance, dick or the kicker. So I just, it really is just all hindsight because of the final score. It's like in those moments, you just don't see the bills. Yes, the turnover is that's more, that's a physical, those are physical mistakes. But you don't see them really give away plays and yards. Like a lot of teams do, they play do. And I think it's easy to say that when you're playing a team

like the bills and you're an underdog and you know, like, you know, you've got to be really at your very best to win the game. And that's some added pressure that you don't really need. I don't think they're terrible. I don't think they're going over nine. But for a team with the coaching staff that they have that get so much credit, I don't know. I think they just sort of, they got some things wrong bottom line today. In my book, good enough for us. Who do you want next year, Bulldog? Who are you feeling? Tony? Let's go to Tony next. Hi, Tony. Welcome. Hey, guys. How's it going? Thanks for taking my call. Appreciate it. Thank you. Yeah. And I'm just pretty much saying exactly what you just said, man. I mean, it's L.A. Chargers. Okay. Like they're not, they're not, they're the NFL teams and the in all of the NFL, you know, these teams are any given weeks can beat the other team. So for a day like today, we're the, you know, Josh Allen and the bills and different uniform, whatever you want to call it, it was not their day, but they still won.

So I'm excited about that. I hope more isn't super hurt. There's no James Cook problem. Okay. At all. And there's no Josh Allen problem. They had a tough day and they still won. I'm excited about that. L.A. chargers came in, you know, they're all in two. They're like, they're probably mad. They came in. They came to play. They went up early and the bills handled business at the end of the game. So yeah, there's a lot of key takeaways to bring, you know, honestly, the bills probably needed a smack in the mouth from the first two weeks of being really good. And, you know, everybody, you know, feeling really good about the team and everything, but we came back down to reality. We squeezed out the wind and I'm happy about it. So that's what I got to say. Okay. Good deal. No reason not to be. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I do think that there is a lot to be said for not being anywhere near. Forgot about your best game, even a good game. And you still end up winning by eight.

You know, there is a lot to be said. Maybe to someone who thinks that I or we sound crabby about it is that the bar is very high. And, you know, they got away with one, but it's to their credit that they did. Like they're good enough team and have enough players that can make plays in moments that when even though it's not really been your day, so to speak, you're still able to come through and make some plays at the end that matter and swing the game. I mean, you know, you're losing five nothing on the turnover battle, losing in the game and then John C. Gardner, C. J. Gardner Johnson makes a play and you've got the ball at midfield and pretty much you never really look back. But, you know, we're talking about LA that throw that decision that's painful. Yeah. You know, you're right there with the lead. You don't have to necessarily get a touchdown there, but that's that. Yeah. Right over the middle like that. Tough. 24, 16, bills, a couple of updates.

Minnesota takes the lead in Tampa on a Jordan Addison touchdown catch from Kyler Murray. And the Raiders go ahead of the Saints on a Michael Mayor touchdown catch. Bowers is playing. So of course, you wouldn't have started Michael Mayor and he gets the games. Well, it's the Raiders first touchdown. The Saints have a touchdown. John Johnson, but didn't convert the extra point. 13 to 6 Las Vegas in the lead there. Sal Capaccio will join us next. His thoughts on today's bills win right around the corner at the stadium. We're at 1812 tavern on Abbott Road and we'll have more after this. It's the Buffalo football post game show Mike Schopen, the bulldog. This is WGR. Hey, all right. It's almost here. Are you ready?

Well, as CJ Gardner, Johnson's first interception as a bill and it came at a huge time, a momentum shift, if you will, in the game. Oh no. And bills took over trailing at the time and then marched to the go-ahead score and a lead they would never relinquish. The North Town Volkswagen momentum shift brought to you by North Town Volkswagen, North Town VW West New York's number one VW dealer.

That drive by the way, by the bills from there got them their first lead of the game and that is our drive of the game which is brought to you by, excuse me, it's driven by your upstate Honda dealers for the best deals this season visit. Your upstate Honda dealer today. You have to be on that drive. I guess I got to switch things. I was about to ask. I had some just trying to do the best I can. I'm not allowed to churpe about momentum, right? We have lovely sponsors. Yeah, 13 plays 58 yards in five minutes and 50 seconds and that was, well, of course, a Josh Allen touchdown run. I was watching the Yankees the other day quickly. This is not fair to sell sales Yankee fan. I happen to be watching they had a double header with Baltimore and the first game they lost like a lot to a little and they were up like the Baltimore's up three nothing and

then they announced here's the turning point of the game and it's a Baltimore grand slam to make it seven nothing. How is that a turning point? Yeah, I don't know. Is that a turning point at all? They were up three nothing. Yeah. Well, the play of the game is fine, but it's not a turning point. The blowout point. It's the blowout. Something else. Yeah, it can be something. It's not a turning point. So see how I moved away from ours. Yeah, you know, definitely well done. Sal Capaccio with us now. Sal does want to talk about one random late season meaning was lost to Baltimore. You know, right? Why would you do that? Playoff sir. Playoff sir. Not players are Tuesday. Playoff sir Tuesday. Sal with us now five turnovers, but you know, a win and a cover as it happens against the chargers. What what are your thoughts, Sal? Yeah, first of all, turning point in that game was the first pitch to make it right. What it was. Right. So listen, I mean, you're right, Mike. We were down in the tunnel area towards the end of the game, me and a bunch of media members waiting for the game to end.

And after the bill scored, you know, to go up 11, I said, there are lots of cover actually. Like they're going to be the points bread. Heck with it, I can't believe they're going to win this game. How do they even do this? I really don't know how they won this game today other than just sticking to, you know, sticking with it as long as they could and just playing and playing and playing and getting a few stops on defense. That's really what it came down to. They got a few stops on defense. And it's a defense that had given up 62 points over the first two games of the year. They gave 16 today and they just made big stops. They had a red zone stop from a touchdown to a field goal early in the game. Then they have a miss field goal by the Chargers. That was pretty big. The interception by CJ Gardner Johnson. The defense just kept failing and offense out and offensive could not get out of its own way. And offense that just kept turning the ball over and making mistakes, committing penalties. Not a good day for the offense. I told you guys going to the week. I said the only way I see the bills losing this game is if they really do it to themselves.

The Chargers are not a better team. Well, they almost did that. They tried really hard. So much not a better team. They'll still beat them. Yeah. Yeah, some play at the end. I remember that conversation. There need to be some play at the end. And there was not that play at the end. At least they got the five turnovers over with quickly. Bulldog, right? Because then you got the one from Gardner Johnson and kind of were home free. How about cook going over 150 today, Sal? Did you feel like that kind of game to you? Did you like me look at the stats when it was over? When did that happen? Yeah, Mike, I'm going to tell you I heard you. Sorry, I heard you say that. I was listening in a little while ago and you guys were talking about his day. And I did not realize that those were his numbers. Because I was on the field post game doing everything. And when you guys said one 54, I'm like, wait, is that right? And then Mike, you said exactly what I was thinking like, like, how did that happen? No way, right? I agree with you. I don't know where that came from, but he seems cooked. He is just a really good. And sometimes you have a few runs here there that start to add up. And then the bill started feeding him. And I also think the very first play of the game, he fumbles.

And we were talking up in the press box of, okay, is Joe Brady going to go back to him? Because, you know, McDermott probably would sit him for a series. And I've been he did it all the time. I think he did it a lot. If he fumbled and now that's a couple of fumbles already for James Cook here this season, and he went right back to him. So I asked James in the locker room, what did it say about Joe Brady going right back to you after that first play? And he said, well, I'm running back one. So he said, he said, arm RB1. He said, you know, I know that and that's he's out of confidence and Joe is confidence in me and we're just going to keep playing football basically. But it was kind of interesting like he's like, yeah, don't. It didn't surprise me because he knows that I'm the best guy to run the ball. Yeah, I mean, I said earlier, Sal, like, you know, do I have a problem? Well, I mean, I want the guy to hang out on the ball. But what am I going to do about it? He's the defending, rushing champion in the lead. Like he's got to, I'm going to keep feeding him. I'm going to hope that he just, you know, it corrects itself. And guys stop punching the ball out on him. Because all three of their fumbles were, yes, careless to an extent, but also perfect

punch on the ball. Like sometimes a guy makes a play, you know? So, you know, on one hand, you have rapid up, especially concave. Really concave in that situation has got to realize like he's done all he can do there. And maybe, you know, it's a lot to ask in the moment. I know, but like just get to the ground, man. And he got three guys hanging on you. You're just asking for trouble there. And Alan, I don't know if Alan just thinks the play is over on the one where, you know, they went to commercial and came back and it was, you know, chargeers ball. But it's all but over just hang on to it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Ball security was an issue today. That's for darn sure. Finally is where an issue today. Decision making was an issue today. I told you guys and the other shows this week, if you look at the bills come out of this game and they have a bad day and offense, I'm not going to be worried about them because they have Josh Allen. They're still going to be fine going forward. If they bad day on defense, I'm going to be concerned because they should not against

this group. Well, guess what? They had a bad day and offense. I know they scored 24 points overall, but they had a bad day. I'm not worried. I'm not concerned. They had a bad day because they did this themselves. These were self-inflicted wounds. No doubt about it. They just have to be smarter and better and do the things today. Do the things they've normally done they didn't do today. And then a good day on defense. I know the stats are going to be tilted because they kept giving the charger the ball to those offense did and you were asking a lot of your defense time after time, but they kept coming up big time after time towards the end of the game. I guess you know the charger and kind of a panic mode. Those things happen. You're giving up a drive. You don't want to see that. I'd rather not have seen that from the bill's defense. Give up that touchdown or I guess field goal towards the end when they were driving. It was only a field goal, but a little too quickly they got down the field. Other than that, I just think the defense did everything you could ask them to do to help them win this game today. With Sal Capaccio, Mike Schopen, the bulldog at 1812, Tavarnon, Abbott Road and streaming

live on YouTube as well. Sal, what's the injury report? I guess Benford maybe is the big one and there's maybe something on DJ Moore or no? I didn't see any on DJ Moore. Did you guys I didn't know anything? Just that he left. He left. He was getting looked at once or twice on the sideline. I don't think he missed much time, but he left. Look like the shoulder was bothering. He was flexing it a little bit and then he was like massaging the back of his neck after a play later in the second half, but I don't think he missed any time. No, we didn't get any updates on him. So I wouldn't I wouldn't say they necessarily had him, but sure. Something of a monitor obviously because of his situation. When he had that play towards the end where he went out of bounds and didn't score, I was a little concerned because he rolled up on that shoulder a little bit, but he got up. He made the first down sign. I'm like, OK, well, he should be OK. Benford is the big one. He has a toe injury. We saw him in the locker room. He had a walking boot on his right foot in the locker room. I'll say that he was, you know, with his guys, his sister group, they were he was smiling and talking with them. So hopefully, there's nothing too serious, but he didn't return to the game.

It is a toe injury. I was rolling the game. Dorian Williams was evaluated of her head injury, but he went back into the game. So that's good news. And then in the locker room, Ty Johnson said he had a hamstring accessory tendon removed on August 11th. I had some three times to make sure I got that right because I said, I'm going to tweet this out. I want to make sure I've never heard this before. A hamstring accessory tendon. He said, that's right. I have no idea what that means, but that's what he said. All right. This is the Barnes Firm Injury Report, which is brought to you by the Barnes Firm. Yes. If you've been injured in a car crash, call the Barnes Firm 1-800-8 million. We'll go ahead and make DJ Moore this week's inspirational player of the game playing through the injury. Like there was some question about whether he would play or not. He did. As Mike and I have mentioned here to Sal, we observed him looking like maybe he was having a little difficulty a couple of different times, but he kept getting back on the field of the inspirational player.

The game is brought to you by Diadabraid Tools, inspired by customers around the world American Nade right here in Western New York. You know, he seems to be one tough Bozo. Yeah. DJ Moore, I mean that in the nicest possible way. How about Sal that both he and Coleman ended up playing today and contributing? Yeah, that's right. And, you know, I mean, I would have bet anything a couple of days ago that Skyler Bell, excuse me, was going to play. And whether that's four, one or the other or they just want insurance. And I said like it just felt like they were trending towards. They're going to put them on the field. They don't want anything to happen. I know even after they elevated or signed Greg Dorch, I felt, okay, like I could see it. I know it's weird to have seven wide receivers, but one of those guys will probably sit. You'll get Skyler Bell. That didn't happen. Both these guys playing was kind of surprising to me when it was all said and done, but these guys they want to be out there. They want to help their team. So yeah, that happened. And then Greg Dorch helped the team today. We had a nice return. You know, and he's a guy that I think they're going to, I wouldn't be surprised of here

or there. He's sprinkled into the offense every once in a while, but for right now, you know, they need the attributes that he brings as a return man. All right, Sal. So New England, next we have always got week to talk about it, but a brutal day for the Patriots on the field in Jacksonville losing was a 35 to 6 in the end that came to the Jaguars. I mean, they're already scrambling a little bit, I bet. Yeah, for sure. And I mean, they're going to be another desperate team coming here next week. They really are. And that's a dangerous team. We just saw that from the chargers today, although we know the bills kind of did that to themselves. They like we said. And it fires New England. I mean, if you remember last year, the bills were in this similar situation with New England. It was week five, though. And the bills had gone 4 and 0. New England was two and two. They come to Buffalo. They win. They get to three and two. The bills go to four and one. And then the bills go to Atlanta and lose and suddenly New England takes over the division. You don't want something like that to happen. I'll say the opposite you want, which is you can bury the Patriots kind of sort of

here. Now, I know it's early, but you can bury the Patriots next week by beating them here at home. Thanks for jumping on sale. We'll talk tomorrow. You got it, guys. Thanks. Anything else you got it to read over there? You want these out of town games that we just talked about to qualifying as our dash around the world. Got it. Yes. Well, I love that. I love that. Bring my dashes markets serving West New York for over 100 years. Shopped the family of the following foods at dashes market. Mike Evans Carded off San Francisco. It sounds like early reports on Devon H&N are not good for his knee injury that he left today's game with against Kansas City Chiefs I and covered barely like the bills here. But that was a competitive game. It seemed Chiefs Dolphins. The Texans lost again so they followed the O-3. Yes. That's right. And the Bengals lost.

The Bengals lost. They were 2-0 along with the bills along with the Chiefs. So the Chiefs moved the 3-0, bills the 3-0, but Bengals lose. Raiders are playing now. Not that I'm really believing. But I guess if they keep winning at some point, you gotta take it seriously. Those are the three remaining undefeated AFC teams. Buffalo Kansas City lost Vegas. Vegas is 13-all with New Orleans in that game. All right, we'll talk some more after a break. Again we're at 18-12 tavern on Abbott Road. Mike Schopen, the Bulldog. This is the Buffalo football post game show on the Voice of the Fan WGR. We've seen more Alan for one, but Guy is like the shirts up here and the pants are down. Like how was it such a poor fit? The dumpy look. Does it have anything to do with the color? Why would the color have anything to do with the fact that the uniforms didn't fit? My friend Ben texted me. It made them look small. They seemed tighter than the other jerseys.

Everybody looked fat. Nobody wears all gray. Like that, nobody, who would ever think of it? You would never. No. No, it was not. No. You would never. Not a good, not a good, not a good, not a good fit. I would never. Not a good fit. No. More ways than one. Yep. We have New England next week. And you know, that'll be interesting to talk about. Hopefully you'll join us two to six Monday through Friday to get into week four, starting tomorrow. Josh Allen today. I mean, it was up and down, but he got home. Here's the quarterback.
