00:46Jeremy White, Joe DiBiase, Nate Geary, and setting the scene at Highmark Stadium, Mr. Sal Capaccio is on the scene
00:54as well.
00:54We're going to get to Sal early. We're all here. Sal, good morning.
00:56Good morning. How are you? Welcome to another very sunny, really, I say, elite Jeremy, fall afternoon.
01:03It's morning, I should say, now into afternoon here in Orchard Park.
01:06Tough to find a better place on the planet than a 1 o'clock Bills game in early October, you
01:11know?
01:12Love it.
01:12It's a great, great place to be, a great scene, and today, Bills Patriots, and, you know, everybody's probably feeling
01:18pretty good about this one.
01:19We'll see, we'll see. We had that last week and got a little stressful, Sal.
01:22So, weather for today, we're expecting beautiful weather, not a lot of wind, a great day to be out there.
01:28Yeah, mid-60s. Right now it's low 60s on the way in.
01:31Should be mid-60s throughout the afternoon, only getting warmer throughout the day.
01:35I'm not sure if it'll get close to 70, but either way, I mean, this is what you like here
01:40in Orchard Park for a fall.
01:42Afternoon game.
01:44And I would say, you know, the sun, again, beating down here.
01:48You guys can see, last week, I kind of took the, I think I may have did the video over
01:52somewhere else because the sun was beating down.
01:54I just wanted to give you an idea of, like, I've got to wear the sunglasses here looking over the
01:57press box.
01:58You guys know because the press box faces the east, and the sun comes over top.
02:03Now, I am interested in how this happens, like, later in the year, but right now, like, that sun is
02:09beating down on the field right now.
02:10This field is in the shadows completely, but that will be changing as this afternoon, this morning, goes on.
02:16Very good.
02:18Should we do injuries right off the bat, Sal?
02:19Let's check the injury report because on the Patriots side of things, we have a number of players, and important
02:24players as well, ruled out.
02:25With Christian Barmore, Christian Gonzalez, both ruled out two of their better defensive players.
02:30And a number of injuries as well, including Drake May on the injury report.
02:33He's been a full participant throughout the week.
02:35Does not have a game status designation, just the actual right shoulder and full participant on the injury report.
02:41But the losses of Barmore and Gonzalez for New England, tough for a unit that might have to carry this
02:47team because the Patriots' offense has been so bad.
02:50New England's defense has been decent, but they're down big, big pieces.
02:54Yeah, for sure.
02:55And, of course, the two Christians are the biggest ones there, Gonzalez and Barmore.
03:00And you would think that Christian Gonzalez might be a guy that would, you know, match up with DJ Moore
03:05most likely all afternoon long.
03:07And now they don't have that possibility, so they'll have to shuffle the deck a little bit there on how
03:11they want to defend the Bills.
03:12And then Christian Barmore, and that's on the passing end.
03:14And Christian Barmore, of course, a really good run defender.
03:17You know, he's a guy that came back from blood clots a couple of years ago and, you know, did
03:21a nice job to make his way back.
03:22And if you listen to some people in New England media, also, they'll say he hasn't quite been, you know,
03:26as effective the first few games.
03:28And now he's dealing with the injury.
03:29So he's on the injury.
03:31Report, Brendan Schooler is also going to be out for this game against the Bills.
03:35And then you have also seven guys who are questionable, including Morgan Moses on the offensive line, who did return
03:41to practice this week.
03:42They are down to their third right guard after a couple injuries.
03:45Greg Van Roten was their backup.
03:47He got hurt last week.
03:48A familiar name on the list, Reggie Gilliam, has a knee injury.
03:52He's been managing that.
03:53He's questionable to play.
03:55My guess is he probably will, but you never know until they get out there.
03:57But they are dealing with it.
03:58And then, of course, the big name, the quarterback, Drake May.
04:00And, you know, he has no injury designation.
04:03But we know now he's been dealing with a shoulder injury.
04:05The team claims that the shoulder injury happened on Sunday in Jacksonville.
04:09I say claimed because I think there's been question about, you know, when actually he did, if he has been
04:14injured all year, the way he's been throwing the ball, people are watching.
04:17They've been saying he hasn't.
04:18And now he shows up in the injury report and they say something happened on Sunday.
04:23So that's just a storyline that's been revolving around the Patriots for the last couple of weeks.
04:28Wouldn't you say, Sal, isn't that like kind of the perfect encapsulation of what's going on with the Patriots right
04:32now?
04:32Like, there seems to be a disconnect between the head coach, the play caller, the quarterback, so much that the
04:38coach said there's a non-issue with the shoulder.
04:40And then the quarterback kind of brings up that there's an issue with the shoulder.
04:43And then because of that, they have to put that on the injury report.
04:46It just seems like right now, Sal, through the first three weeks of the season, it has gone about as
04:51bad as it could go for a franchise who's had a rough offseason with storylines.
04:55It's just, you don't know if it's going to bleed over in between the lines, Sal, but so far it's
05:01bled in between the lines.
05:03Yeah, I mean, that's very possible considering the way they've started the season, right?
05:07And then last week, obviously, getting beat the way they did in Jacksonville.
05:10And it's very, very possible, Nate, that they're looking at it and maybe they get a call from the league
05:16or something.
05:16Well, what's going on?
05:18Is he hurt?
05:19Not that there's anything that would show up, but maybe that's why they put it on.
05:22I don't really know.
05:23The other thing could be they're just simply protecting their young quarterback.
05:25And saying, okay, and now you may say, like, excuse making or whatever if he's not playing well.
05:30He's got a shoulder injury.
05:31That could be it, too, just kind of protecting him from, well, he's dealing with a shoulder injury.
05:35So he comes to Buffalo and suddenly throws another two interceptions and loses a fumble.
05:38Well, you know, we've been saying he's got that shoulder injury.
05:41You know, that makes it a little easier to say something like that after coming off a runner-up MVP
05:46campaign last year for Drake May.
05:49Sal, what do you really feel like this New England team does well early on?
05:53Or is there even an answer to that?
05:55Would it be on the defensive side of the football?
05:58Yeah, they are, I think, 10th in the league in yards per play passing against.
06:04And that's with Gonzalez now, remember, right?
06:06I mean, I think they're like 20th overall in yards, you know, per game given up.
06:09But yards per play, they make you work a little bit.
06:12And that's going to be their defense.
06:13And I think we've seen that from, like, Rabel defenses over the years.
06:16They're not going to give up a lot of big plays.
06:17They're going to play a very, like, almost like a Sean McDermott style of philosophy, right?
06:21Keep everything in front of you, be coachable, be where you're supposed to be, do that.
06:25They're not getting after the passer this year very well.
06:27They have one of the worst sacks per pass attempt in the NFL.
06:31Third worst, I think, they're tied for.
06:33And, you know, when that happens, you know, you can have opportunity.
06:37But they've done a nice job of making sure those opportunities don't turn into big plays.
06:40Now, that being said, you know, they're, I think, trying to hold it together on defense as much as their
06:46offense has been struggling.
06:47Because you asked me what they do well.
06:49I think that the defensive numbers are probably actually worse than they are with the eye test.
06:54I think the defense is better than they perform.
06:56But it looks worse because the offense has put them in such terrible positions because the offense can't get out
07:01of their own way, can't get down the field, can't score points.
07:05Sal Capaccio here.
07:06A little roundtable here as part of Buffalo football game day as we get a scene setter from inside Highmark
07:10Stadium where Sal is.
07:11Of course, Sal, like the divisional race is a big part of this.
07:14And New England comes in 1-2, the Bills 3-0.
07:17A win for the Bills would really put some distance here.
07:20And I was just thinking, as we started the season, this group of five games to start, a lot of
07:26Bills fans might have thought 3-2 would be pretty good, 4-1 would be great.
07:31And now we're looking at it, you know, with a real good look at 5-0 if things go the
07:35right way.
07:35It's just things have broken well for them to some degree, Sal.
07:39And even when they haven't, like last week, they found their way through.
07:42I'm eager to see the response they have.
07:45If it's, you know, a divisional game, that's one thing.
07:47But how they respond to last week's game given that it seems like they felt, offensively at least, of course,
07:54offensively, that they were sloppy and they were careless.
07:56And, you know, Joe Brady had kind of been warning about smoke alarms going off.
08:01And we'll see if they can play maybe a tidier game today, business-like, if I may, in this divisional
08:06matchup.
08:07Yeah, it was kind of a coach's dream from that respect, Jeremy, which is you win the game, but there
08:12are so many things that you have to correct that you can get your team's attention.
08:16You know, it's not like you went out there and just completely blew a team off the field and like,
08:19yeah, yeah, everything's really good.
08:20No, you have to get their attention to correct those mistakes.
08:22And from Joe Brady to Jim Leonard, everything we've heard this week and even going back to when the defense
08:27was giving up, you know, 62 points in the first two games, they would say everything that has happened is
08:32correctable.
08:33So here we go.
08:34Here's another chance to correct some of those mistakes.
08:36Now, the first two weeks, it was correct some things on defense.
08:38And I think we saw that last week.
08:39They did a good job to correct some things on defense.
08:41They were getting stops.
08:42They had one touchdown in the opening drive on a short field.
08:45After that, the Chargers did not see the end zone the rest of the day.
08:48Defense did a good job.
08:48Now it's on the offense to correct their mistakes.
08:50And honestly, guys, the biggest mistake is ball security.
08:53That's the biggest thing they have to correct, whether that's, you know, putting the ball on the ground from James
08:56Cook or Josh Allen or Josh Allen making a decision and, you know, throwing in to tight coverage or triple
09:01coverage, whether he thought to be a free play or not.
09:03It's just those kinds of things.
09:05You do that today.
09:06It's going to be a different result.
09:07I think if you do that today against the Patriots, they'll play the game differently.
09:11I think the difference between the Patriots and Chargers in that regard is Chargers kind of confused on who they
09:15want to be, their identity.
09:16I think the Patriots at least know who they want to be.
09:18Know how they want to play.
09:19And if you give them that opportunity like you did last year when they came here on week five Sunday
09:23night, they'll take advantage of that.
09:24So you're right.
09:26The Bills kind of, you know, through three games, they're 3-0.
09:30And everybody's very happy about that.
09:31And if you looked at the schedule when it came out and you said, oh, my God, 3-0, are
09:33you kidding me?
09:34Like, anybody would take that in a heartbeat, of course, no matter who you're playing.
09:37But considering the way the schedule's lining up now, going from, yeah, you know, you should take 3-2 to,
09:42oh, my God, you better be at least 4-1, it feels like.
09:44Right?
09:45And this is one of the ones you have to get.
09:46Then you go to the Rams next Monday night, not to get too far ahead, guys.
09:49There's no Miles Garrett.
09:50Puka's coming back now.
09:51But Aaron Donald's out this week.
09:53Like, what's his status for next week?
09:55That's up in the air.
09:56They do not look like the team that a lot of people thought they were a couple months ago when
09:59they were considered a dream team or whatever you want to call it.
10:01And then you go to the Raiders, who look really, really good right now with a 3-0 record.
10:05But today's going to be a good test for them.
10:07They also have been outgained in two out of their three games.
10:11They're getting turnovers.
10:12They have good field position.
10:13If they can play that kind of game against Kansas City, you know, they'll be in it.
10:17But I want to see if the Raiders can rise to that test.
10:19But the next two weeks after this week, obviously also looking different than it did a couple of months ago.
10:25One thing, Sal, too, to note, because yesterday I saw Takori Couch and Kanai Walker.
10:31Both elevated off the practice squad.
10:33If it's nothing but a hedge for Christian Benford potentially not being able to go or being limited in this
10:38game,
10:38I think we're going to see a lot of the rookie IGB.
10:41And obviously Maxwell Harrison is likely going to be out there all day.
10:45Thoughts on, you know, what that could look like with the rookie potentially making his first start in his career?
10:50Yeah, a very inexperienced corner group for the Bills today if Christian Benford can't go.
10:54But a group that's getting some experience this year, even more so than last year when, you know, Max Harrison,
10:59on top of last year when Max Harrison had some time, but he was injured and he didn't play as
11:03much, right?
11:03But he missed some time last year.
11:05Now he's, you know, in his second year.
11:06I think he's playing better than he did in the preseason.
11:09And people thought, okay, where is this going?
11:11And I think he's been a lot more steady.
11:12He missed the interception last week.
11:13And IGB's been coming in and doing a nice job when he's been called upon.
11:17What I like about the way they've handled IGB, what he's done here is,
11:21Jim Leonard made a really good point last week.
11:23He said, you don't want guys, rookies, to go in when you, oh, you have to go in and play
11:29now.
11:29You want them to go in when things happen and you say, you've already played.
11:34And you feel comfortable with that.
11:35You don't want to have to press them into duty just because.
11:37You want to put them out there because you're confident they can play because you've seen them play.
11:40And what have they done the first two weeks?
11:41That's why he's played in weeks one and week two a little bit.
11:45And now he's going to get his first start most likely.
11:47Look, I mean, I don't know if Christian Bentford's going to be active or not.
11:49It feels like he's not.
11:50When you elevate two defensive backs, I think that's an indication that, as you're right, Nate, it could be a
11:55hedge.
11:56Can I Walker certainly could be inactive and they could put him on the field.
11:59But you are facing a Patriots, with all due respect to last year and what they did and Drake May,
12:05you're facing a Patriots passing attack that's down A.J. Brown.
12:08Mack Hollins is their top weapon.
12:09They throw a lot to the tight ends and receivers.
12:11This isn't the kind of game where you're going against a Nico Collins or an Amar Ross St.
12:15Brown.
12:16And I think this is the kind of game where, I want to say, you can get away with not
12:19having a Christian Bentford.
12:20But I do think it's a lot more conducive to go against this offense than it would have been the
12:25first two weeks without him.
12:26And if you can get him through another week before you get to the Rams, then that's great.
12:30And oh, by the way, they didn't put him on IR, which is really good news, meaning that they believe
12:33he'll be back before four weeks.
12:36Thanks, Sal.
12:36We know you've got to run.
12:37So this has been the pregame Buffalo football game day huddle.
12:40Thanks, Sal.
12:40You got it, guys.
12:41Game day huddle with us, Sal, me, Jeremy, Joe, and Nate, brought to you by Northtown Hyundai game day huddle,
12:47Northtown Hyundai, Western New York's premier Hyundai dealership.
12:51But the name, Kanai Walker, if that sounds familiar to anyone out there, you may remember him from training camp
12:57star that didn't make the team,
13:00and people were a little nervous about that because he looked so good.
13:03He made it through waivers, made it back here, and here he is elevated to the game day roster, or
13:07at least we'll see if he, whatever, called up.
13:09So if he does have to play, we really liked him in the preseason.
13:14He was one of the very few names that was a surprise.
13:17Everybody else that played well in the preseason, had a good preseason.
13:20Skylar Bell maybe, but I feel like Kanai Walker was a little bit of the camp standout.
13:24Yeah, and you would hope that, obviously, these guys are not starting anyway.
13:28You're going to have two guys that have been playing already this season and have both looked relatively good in
13:35Harrison and Nick Benosin.
13:36If they stay healthy, they're just going to play the whole day, and that's, I think, okay.
13:42What they've showed so far, I mean, we'll see what IGB looks like in a full game,
13:46but is anybody really worried about their ability to cover anybody on the other side of the field if they
13:51just stay healthy the whole game?
13:53I mean, the difference between this week and next week is massive.
13:56You know, I mean, the Patriots offense versus a Sean McVay offense, and Pook and Devontae Adams next week versus,
14:02I mean,
14:03Romeo Dobbs and Mac Hollins and Pop Douglas.
14:06Pop Douglas.
14:07That's going to be, to me, that's the real matchup, I think, if I looked at this just as a
14:12chess match where I'd say,
14:13okay, maybe that's advantage Patriots is I think the Bills are 28th in EPA per play against slot receivers right
14:20now.
14:20They're giving up, I think, the third most yards to slot receivers in the NFL for three weeks.
14:25So if there's one area where maybe you're looking at matchups, it's D'Alford versus Pop Douglas.
14:31But, you know, I mean, I think you take your chances against a slot receiver, but the big play,
14:37which is what I thought last season this New England Patriots offense lived on, is not there for them right
14:44now.
14:44Their deep threat, Kyle Williams, you know, is not exactly a complete NFL receiver.
14:49He's a part-time guy.
14:50He might be good.
14:51They just hate him.
14:52He might be.
14:52They have this thing where they don't like players that are sometimes good.
14:56Like Keyshawn Butte, who was good for them.
14:59And especially down the field, they just got rid of Butte.
15:03They were expecting A.J. Brown to walk in and change the offense.
15:06And, you know, even before, I think it was Greg Cosell I was listening to this week, guys.
15:11Like, this is a little bit beyond just Drake May struggles.
15:14I think that there's no doubt Drake May is struggling.
15:17It, to me, looks more confidence and maybe there's something with the arm.
15:21But I don't know, guys.
15:23I'm wondering about the guru, McDaniels, because it has not looked good.
15:27They're predictable, whether it's personnel groupings or just general play calls.
15:32They are one of the most predictable offenses in football right now.
15:36Yeah, I mentioned this earlier in the week.
15:37I heard a good breakdown from Ben Solak on the whole Drake May versus Cover 6 narrative
15:42that's been out there since last year's playoffs.
15:44You know who put that on tape?
15:45It was McDermott.
15:46It was McDermott.
15:47But what he kind of detailed is if you're watching these plays, sure, May is making mental mistakes on them.
15:53But McDaniels is the one that is getting schooled in these situations.
15:57He's got play designs that just are not working against those coverages, and he's not adjusting.
16:02He's running plays from 10, 12 years ago that Brady used to run, trying to run them today with Drake
16:07May
16:08without anybody that separates and gets open.
16:10And you mentioned, like, they don't play Kyle Williams.
16:13They don't play Henderson a lot.
16:15They didn't even do that last year when he was playing better than he is this year.
16:17Like, they're doing the thing where they just play guys they trust, right?
16:23Like, Matt Collins and Ramondre Stevenson can block, so they're going to be the two guys that are on the
16:27field the most.
16:28Well, so Nate Tice of Yahoo Sports had a big, long dive into this Patriots offense,
16:33and some of the numbers on it are amazing.
16:35I don't mean the production numbers, but these are numbers we could understand.
16:39I say it myself.
16:40I don't have to watch X's and O's to understand this, that they have made zero tacklers miss this season.
16:46Which is insane.
16:47The wide receivers have made zero, I mean, not every wide receiver on the Patriots,
16:52not one broken tackle, not one missed tackle forced.
16:56It gets worse than that.
16:57It gets worse, right?
16:58Their leading tackle breakers, Hunter Henry, with one.
17:00He has one missed tackle forced.
17:02Nobody has a missed tackle.
17:03The other one's this, that they haven't had a single skill player reach 20 miles per hour this season,
17:09not just with the ball in their hands.
17:12Just at all.
17:13Running.
17:13They are slow.
17:15The Patriots' skill players have the second lowest rate of plays where they reach 15 miles per hour running.
17:22So you send out these receivers into routes, and Drake May is throwing to slow turtles.
17:29It is a slow team.
17:33And that's that.
17:34What do you got, a guy who maybe has a shoulder injury, maybe he's having a little regression,
17:38maybe his offensive coordinator is outdated a little bit and not what he used to be,
17:43and by the way, all the pieces they're using are slow.
17:45Can I also say, A.J. Brown's not fixing that problem.
17:49No, he's not.
17:50He's not fixing their lack of speed.
17:52He's just good.
17:53Yes.
17:53But without him, it's like, oh, all right, I got a very, very slow team.
17:57Right.
17:57I mean, this state of A.J. Brown, you wouldn't expect that.
18:01When A.J. Brown was at his best, and how long has it been since that?
18:04It's been two years.
18:05I mean, he was a vertical threat that early in his career, he would break away from tacklers,
18:10and you just could not catch him, and he would run through you.
18:13But off an injury and the knee thing from the offseason that everybody talked about,
18:18like, he's got to be better than what they have on the field right now.
18:22I really think the mistake they made, because I can understand moving on from Diggs.
18:25Diggs had a cap hit, and you wanted to make the Brown move, you wanted to make the Dobbs move.
18:29Like, okay, you can't probably have all three of those coexist.
18:32Maybe you could have figured it out.
18:33But they're definitely missing him.
18:35They just didn't need to trade Kayshaun Booty.
18:38Yeah, no.
18:39They just didn't need to do it.
18:40Just hold on to him, see what happens.
18:42If they waited one week into the season and said, let's just see how the start of the year goes,
18:46and, you know, if we need to trade you by then, we'll trade you.
18:48They would have never done it, because they would have saw Brown get hurt,
18:51and they would have probably plugged him right back in to the starting lineup.
18:56And he's not, like, an all-world receiver, but he'd be much more dangerous
18:59than any of the guys we're talking about right now.
19:00He's exactly what May needs, which is somebody he has chemistry with,
19:03because he has none of it with anybody right now.
19:05Right.
19:06And that's the guy.
19:07May was the best deep ball thrower in the league last year,
19:09and Booty was the number one guy to get the targets.
19:12Why don't we break that up, guys?
19:13Like, okay, good idea.
19:15And to me, I don't know what this is about the NFL,
19:17and it's almost only, and it's exclusively about wide receivers,
19:22which is, oh, we've got too many.
19:23We need to move them.
19:24Yeah.
19:25And I don't understand that concept, because you don't say that with pass rushers.
19:28You don't say that with defensive tackles.
19:30You never say it with corners.
19:31You never say it with corners.
19:32Yeah.
19:32You never say it with offensive linemen.
19:34The Bills have, like, 15.
19:36But teams that are deep at wide receiver, you just hear the, well,
19:40there's only one ball to go around.
19:42I just don't understand, especially in the NFL, with how many players miss time.
19:47It's like Houston, right?
19:48Houston had what I think they thought was probably their best duo of wide receiver
19:53in the league, or at least since, you know, C.J. Stroud took over.
19:56And Higgins goes down with a knee injury.
19:58Nico Collins goes down.
19:59And now they're down to a guy they just traded for, a third or fourth round pick
20:04in Jalen Noel, and a bunch of guys.
20:06And I just think now the Patriots wide receiver room is a result of their own doing.
20:13You know, and one guy gets injured, and everything gets messed up.
20:18That is a roster issue.
20:19That is, to me, not necessarily a, it's a personnel and roster issue.
20:22Right.
20:22I understand what they were trying to do.
20:24They were trying to get better.
20:25They were trying to improve the position, but the booting deal was the one that was
20:28just unnecessary.
20:29You could have held on to him as depth.
20:31You're right.
20:31Like, how many times have you heard the phrase, you can never have enough corners?
20:34Have you ever heard the phrase, you can never have enough receivers?
20:38Right.
20:38Because they're the opposite positions on either side of the ball.
20:42I mean, Brown getting hurt is Brown getting hurt.
20:45Like, what are you going to do about that one?
20:46But Dobbs is out there.
20:48He's on the field.
20:49They paid him to come in there.
20:50He's, everyone thought, a good player.
20:52And they are just not finding ways to get the most out of him.
20:55So, one more thing on that.
20:57Matt Harmon, Yahoo Sports and Reception Perception.
21:00He's the guy that does, his thing is, he charts receivers, what routes do they run well, how
21:04often do they run those routes, and on and on and on for all the players in the league.
21:07And he, his evaluation of this Patriots offense, everyone's trying to figure out, like, how
21:10could it be this bad?
21:11Because it's one of the worst offenses in the league.
21:13And his is, Dobbs runs a couple routes well.
21:16The Patriots are asking to run the other ones.
21:18All the things he does poorly, that Josh McDaniels is like, why don't you run these
21:22ones instead?
21:23So, I mean, we were guilty of this last week, thinking the game was over before it began.
21:29I'm guilty of it again.
21:30I don't care.
21:31What do I got to apologize for?
21:32I think they'll win quite handily today.
21:35I don't think they'll turn the ball over five times.
21:37And if they do, they could probably still win.
21:40Yeah.
21:41Anyway.
21:42You know, though, isn't it, it's funny, though, looking at this offense from the Patriots,
21:46is the pass catchers kind of remind me of the last two years with the Bills.
21:51Is that because Matt Collins is on the team, and it's other guys?
21:53And it's other guys.
21:54And, like, they're using Matt Collins probably more than Matt Collins should be used.
21:58But, and then I say that, and then I think, they don't have anybody as good as Khalil Shaqir.
22:04I was just going to say that.
22:05And that would be infuriating sometimes how often the Bills would design the offense to
22:10go through him and yak plays.
22:12But we just went through the numbers on yak plays.
22:13They don't even have that.
22:14They don't have a gimmick.
22:16Who do they throw the screen to that's dangerous?
22:18Pop Douglas is their guy.
22:20Yeah, that's it.
22:20That's it.
22:20And they don't have a Kincaid either.
22:21I mean, even though Kincaid's in and out of the lineup, Hunter Henry's a nice player.
22:24They have a rookie tight end.
22:26Eli Raritan liked him a lot.
22:27But he's on the injury report today.
22:28We'll see if he's able to go.
22:30Anyway, lots to get to.
