00:00They're going up against an MVP caliber quarterback, right? Josh Allen is killing it right now

00:04He's in fact, he's being crowned the MVP with four weeks to go. He's this week's

00:08Lock for MVP, which I think it's hysterical that every week

00:12Somebody else is now. Oh, this guy's gonna win the MVP. Yeah. Got it. That was golf

00:18That was Lamar. That was Derrick Henry. That was Saquon Barkley and now it's Josh Allen

00:24There's still four weeks to be played don't crown anybody yet, but he's damn good

00:28He's had a hell of a season he's done an amazing job of taking care of the football I

00:34Don't think he has not lost a fumble this year and he has thrown five picks

00:39Which is uncharacteristic because you look back a season ago and he I think through 18 interceptions last year

00:46And and fumbled a few times as well. So he's definitely done a better job of taking care of the football

00:52And hey, what do you know you win games when you do that when it's not

00:56It's not rocket science, this is just how it works and he's awfully good

01:00He likes to take off and go and pick up the yards. He's a guy who can barrel for you because he's got size

01:07And he's got speed to these and he's got some elusiveness to ease

01:11He's quite a quarterback when he's when he's on point, but he's not always on point

01:16But this year he has and the weapons that he has and this is where I think the bills have kind of really started

01:24You know the the wide receiving core and getting their guy back in Keon Coleman helps a lot

01:29But they have an emerging star in Khalil Shakir

01:33Who has gone from in his third year 10 catches to 39 catches to 65 catches this year?

01:41And there's obviously football still to be played. He has 735 yards receiving

01:46533 of his 735 yards receiving is yards after catch

01:57Comparatively speaking to the rest of the wide receivers in the NFL because the running backs it's all yards after right

02:03comparatively speaking to the the wide receivers in the NFL

02:0973% of his receiving yards are after catch

02:13That is number one of the top receivers in the NFL by a wide margin like nobody's

02:18There's like one other guy above 50%

02:20He is the yards after catch King and his speed

02:23His speed is next level. I feel like this. This is their emerging Amin Ra like this is their guy

02:30Who it and for people haven't watched the Bills play?

02:34Shakir is is

02:37Incredibly fast and and his acceleration is elite and

02:41He's a really tough cover

02:43Yeah, he's awfully good. He's awfully good and he's been playing

02:47Well, James Cook the running back has done a real nice job for them that this year as well

02:51Not last week as much but no maybe not last week, but on the season

02:55he's averaging five yards of carry and he's over 700 yards rushing and

03:00They've got weapons there and if they're getting key on Coleman back the the rookie and he's got talent as well

03:06And he's just scratching the surface there

03:09And the Mari Cooper as well, right? So yeah, I'm Ari and Dalton Kincaid a tight end like yeah, it's a solid team

03:15They are a little solid team and and oh, by the way, the quarterback

03:18He's a weapon and the offensive lot now the quarterback makes the offensive line

03:23Numbers look good to nobody. He's only been sacked 13 times, but the offensive line has done a good job

03:27Yeah pressure, but that's I mean 13 times once a game. That's it. Yep. You get your one shot against so I

03:34You know, we've we've documented this week how the Lions defensively the last six six quarters have been actually kind of kind of brutal

03:42and it's easily explained away by the injuries and

03:46They've done a great job just to win the darn games, which is ultimately the goal

03:51But in 14 possessions since halftime of the Bears game in the 14 possessions Alliance have defended

03:58If you eliminate they kneel down at a half

04:01They've given up seven touchdowns in a field goal

04:04seven touchdowns in 14 possessions is an

04:08extraordinarily high rate an alarming rate

04:12But it's a it's a small sample size B. It's with a lot of defensive players off the field and

04:18Unfortunately, even if they get defensive players back there might be more there's gonna be multiple touchdowns scored by this Bills offense

04:25but

04:26It's it it will be damn reassuring because if the Lions shut down this offense I

04:36Don't know what other box they need to check this year

04:38If the Lions defense

04:40Helps up and the guys that are expected to be there in the long run out on the field and they shut down this this

04:46Bills offense

04:48With Josh Allen and his dual threat capabilities

04:52John John Jansen always talks in the morning show about instead of things are tough. John says no, it's an opportunity

04:58Yeah, it is an opportunity presents a challenge. It is it is such a challenge that if they do it. It is an opportunity to

05:06Be the slam-dunk favorite to win this whole damn thing, which is they kind of already are

05:11But I don't know what else they have to prove if they shut down this bill. No, I kind of agree with you there and it's

05:18Really the last thing they need to do is just get healthy and and it seems like they're getting a lot healthier for this game

05:24Good time with just a few games left in the season, but you want them? That's that's really the last hurdles

05:30Please God's please God stay healthy the rest of the way no more catastrophic injuries

05:34And hopefully they get another couple players coming back for when the playoff run starts
