00:00i think they can keep it close though though i do i know beetle doesn't think so but i do they're

00:03better than freaking saints that's not true i've been talking today about how they can keep it

00:07close if they're able if they're able to just limit the number of possessions that josh allen

00:12has i mean they've got two ways to beat you they can beat you with james cook they can beat you

00:16with josh allen the patriots to this point phil have shown no ability to truly stop those things

00:23in a in a game like of a high level offense that we haven't seen that yet hasn't this defense been

00:29a little softer than you would have preferred so far through four games well especially early in

00:32games they have been i mean those opening series have been just killer it's like zero resistance

00:39in some of these games and so to me you can't allow that to happen because then you know that

00:44crowd gets going it becomes a really difficult place to play it's already a difficult place to

00:48play but if you let them jump out to an early lead and josh allen's eight for eight on the first drive

00:53for 85 yards and a touchdown that's going to be a hard situation overcome so they have to figure that

00:58out early in early in games you're not going to stop them though you know what i mean that's kind

01:04of my point you are going to have to score points and even though i believe their best path to keeping

01:11this close is by running the football that doesn't mean i think it'll be a low scoring game i think

01:17running the football leads to explosive pass plays because then you're throwing play action stuff down

01:24the field and then the linebackers are being enticed to suck up closer to the line of scrimmage and

01:29you're finding these big open spaces in the middle of the field where stefan diggs or hunter henry

01:33can go feast so run the football run it a lot try to keep drake may's pass attempts low i'm with you on

01:40all of that but there should still be some explosive playmaking within that type of game plan that allows

01:47you to keep it close to buffalo
