So super happy 10 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: for the defense because despite the four game losing streak, 11 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: I mean, those guys have been playing quite well, and 12 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: especially when the time of possession is an a lopsided 13 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: and they were rewarded yesterday. 14 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 2: Good morning, Pete, Yeah, good morning. Yeah, they've they've It's 15 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 2: not just the time of possession, it's all the turnovers 16 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 2: that this team had been creating and giving additional possessions 17 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 2: to the opposing offense and the play counts and you 18 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 2: look at the stats and the numbers from this game, 19 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 2: and it was the Commanders who didn't make it the 20 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 2: fifty snaps yesterday, so the shoe was kind of on 21 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 2: the other foot. And as that momentum swung and we 22 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 2: finally were multiple scorers ahead of an offense, they were desperate, 23 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 2: so to speak. They went forward and fourth down deep 24 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: in the red zone. The company know. They also won 25 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: forward again later each time it worked out for the defense. 26 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: So that's we were all wondering where the turnovers went, right, 27 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: where'd they go? Hockem. They're so hard to get. Well, 28 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 2: there's a lot to be said about you know what, 29 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 2: what the offense that you're playing against has in mind. 30 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 2: I mean, teams were because because our offense was in 31 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 2: by no means putting up points and moving the football, 32 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 2: they were fine was handing it off once or twice 33 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 2: and throwing a short pass on third down. If it 34 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 2: doesn't work, you punt, try to flip the field and 35 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 2: you know put you know, knowing your defense will probably 36 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 2: get three and out and play that game. So it 37 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: was it was refreshing to see that old, that whole 38 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 2: thing get turned around, and it reminded me of you know, 39 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 2: a lot of games last year. 40 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: Hey, Pete Bira Murphy Junior is one of my favorite 41 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,679 Speaker 1: guys in the Covenant, and he had six interceptions last year. 42 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: That was the most sense Jimmy Hitchcock on your ninety 43 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: eight vikings when he had seven and three got to 44 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: the house. 45 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 3: Well. 46 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: Well, Byron now has gone seventeen consecutive without a pick. 47 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: The longest run of his career without an interception was 48 00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: nineteen back when he started with Arizona. Yeah, why do 49 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: you think Murphy doesn't have an interception? And do you 50 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: think the fact that team started running so much on 51 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: the vikings, with the unbalanced looks and stuff like that, 52 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: how much does that play into it? 53 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 2: I think it plays into it a ton. Paul just 54 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 2: we're not I mean, don't forget this defense saw more 55 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 2: passes last year than any other defense in the league, right, 56 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 2: So there's just more opportunities. There's just more things that 57 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: can happen, and this year we're just not seeing it. 58 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 2: You're not seeing a ton of deep balls. I mean, 59 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 2: our defense is very, very good against deep passes, and 60 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 2: I think a lot of that has to do with 61 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 2: the fact that we were just not seeing a lot 62 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 2: of them. Teams don't have to do that, they're not 63 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 2: forced to do that. So I think Byron Murphy's kind 64 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 2: of in a catch twenty two in that regard, meaning, 65 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 2: you know, he hasn't been tested a ton, but then 66 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 2: he hasn't been rewarded a ton either in that respect. 67 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 2: There's just not a lot of action going on out 68 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 2: on the out sid. I mean, we've seen Isaiah Rodgers 69 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 2: for the last oh, I don't know, eight nine weeks 70 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 2: be in run support and have to tackle more than 71 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 2: we do see him making coverage plays down the field 72 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 2: like he did against Cincinnati. So that aspect of it, 73 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 2: I think is the biggest part. I don't think it 74 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: has anything to do with what Byron Murphy is or 75 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 2: is not doing. 76 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, you mentioned Isaiah Rodgers and just kind of a 77 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 4: consistent factor with the secondary is just some tackling issues 78 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 4: over the course of twenty twenty fives, I mean consistencies there. 79 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 4: I thought it was interesting and I read it being 80 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 4: reported on X. Did you notice that there was a 81 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 4: ton of jay Ward on the field. It looked like 82 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 4: in base coverage with Isaiah Rodgers coming in and Nickel. 83 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 4: Did you notice that throughout the game, maybe because of. 84 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 2: The tackling, I think, yeah, I think that would. I 85 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 2: didn't notice it. Yeah, up the top of my head, 86 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 2: I did not notice that. I know jay Ward, who 87 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 2: is a safety ended up in the cornerback kind of spot, 88 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 2: so to speak quite a bit. That is something our 89 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,679 Speaker 2: defense can do. We can invert safeties and do different 90 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 2: things like that. It's kind of a flexibility. The whole thing. 91 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 2: The tellis was in the deep half a lot more 92 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 2: than we've seen I think in a while. So they're 93 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 2: they're they're putting him a little bit deeper. But when 94 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 2: you it's a response to the amount of quick throws 95 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: and outside plays that you're getting, right, I mean, teams 96 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 2: see it on film. They saw the Seattle film and 97 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 2: they saw that Isaiah Rodgers, when you get a football, 98 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 2: you throw a quick pass outside or get sharbon a 99 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 2: or someone outside quickly. You know he's a cover guy. 100 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 2: He's not. He doesn't make his money tackling people at 101 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage. And so they want to exploit that. 102 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 2: And I think that Jay Ward was in a kind 103 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 2: of an adjustment to that. Put a better tackler out there, 104 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 2: uh and and try to keep teams from wanting to 105 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 2: throw those whip screens and all the quick throws on 106 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 2: the outside. So just a just an evolution of it. 107 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 2: And for Isaiah Rodgers, you want to see him tackle 108 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 2: butter Yeah, of course you do. But I mean everybody 109 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 2: has their own skill set. 110 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: Uh jay Ward, jay Ward hit zach ertz knee and 111 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 1: a trigger to acl and absolutely, I mean squarely popped 112 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: that knee and is getting predictably savage on all social 113 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: media channels. Uh, Jay, you know we we we know 114 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: Jay well enough to know he's not a dirty player 115 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: by trade. 116 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 3: Uh. 117 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: Clearly he made a mistake and it caused zach Ertz 118 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: the season, But like, how do you how do you 119 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: handle that with with what transpired yesterday? 120 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 2: Uh? What the hell else is he supposed to do? Yeah, 121 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 2: zach Ertz is what six foot four, six foot five, 122 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: and he's jumping in the air to get a pass. 123 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 2: I mean back in the day that was that was 124 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 2: a murder ball. That's on the quarterback for you know, 125 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: throwing that football where he did and letting it hang 126 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 2: in his wide receiver out to dry. I mean, jay Ward, 127 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 2: this is different than a tight end catching a football 128 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 2: on the ground, you know, and turning and making a turn, 129 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, and then having someone come 130 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: in and take out his ankles, which again I don't 131 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 2: know what else. I don't know what else dvs are 132 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 2: supposed to do these days, I really don't. I mean, 133 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 2: and in this case, Sachertz was with Airborne. This stuff 134 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 2: happens so quickly. I just wish. I just wish people 135 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 2: could get and I have an idea or get or 136 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 2: just have a feel and just experience what that, what 137 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 2: goes on in the course of a play like that, 138 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 2: and then step back and then say, well, you know 139 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 2: it was a dirty hit. You know him when you 140 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 2: see him, I mean, like shazy er. You see him 141 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 2: do some stupid things and some of those hits. But 142 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 2: my goodness, there, I don't think there's anything else that 143 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 2: jay Ward could have done. I mean, you want to 144 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 2: be aggressive, you want to use the ability to hit. 145 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 2: It's a it's a weapon of the defense. It's something 146 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 2: a defense can do. They tried to limit it as 147 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 2: much as they can, keep the head out of out 148 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 2: of the contact. So what else are you supposed to 149 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 2: do when you're safety or a dB going up against 150 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 2: the tight end. Who's who's forty inches up in the air, 151 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 2: right I I really, I really don't know. It's unfortunate, 152 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 2: it's awful. I feel for zach Ertz. I mean, he's 153 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 2: a great player, and I mean it's it's part of 154 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 2: it's part of the game, Paul. I mean when you do, yeah, 155 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 2: you need to hit him a little higher, Okay, right, 156 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna be able to recalculate and in 157 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 2: a fraction of a second decide I'm gonna hit him 158 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 2: in the waist or hit him. So it's just and 159 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 2: then you can end up hurting yourself, right. So, Uh, 160 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: I don't know, there's no there's no answer to this. 161 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 2: There really isn't. So it's unfortunate, and move on because 162 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: there's I don't think there's anything anybody can do about 163 00:08:58,800 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 2: what happened. 164 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 4: Speaking moving on and moving forward with with JJ McCarthy, 165 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 4: yesterday really his most productive and consistent game as a pro, 166 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:08,719 Speaker 4: no interceptions or turnovers. 167 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 3: We love all of that. 168 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 4: I'm just curious, you know, given the time that you 169 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 4: spent coaching in the league, you know the we're going 170 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 4: to focus on JJ learning and getting better and growing. 171 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 4: But is there an aspect to this process where Kevin 172 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 4: O'Connell is learning and growing in terms of how he 173 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 4: handles JJ McCarthy on a weekly basis. 174 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: I think for for coach O'Connell in the offense, Uh, 175 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 2: they're learning, uh, and changing and manipulating, not manipulating, but 176 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 2: just evolving the system to what to what he can do. Right. 177 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 2: This isn't This isn't the passing game we saw yesterday. 178 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 2: Isn't the passing game that we have with Kirk Cousins 179 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 2: or Sam Darnold. 180 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 3: It's not. 181 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 2: It just is not. So in that respect, they're learning 182 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 2: what McCarthy can do. Right. They may have given him 183 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 2: more too much early than they than they maybe they 184 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 2: should have in hindsight, but they're they paired it down 185 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 2: to give them what he can execute and a lot 186 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 2: of those throws. Paul and I talk about this all 187 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 2: the time. You got a guy who is accurate and 188 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 2: kind of coplowed it in between the hash marks in 189 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 2: the middle of the field and quick throws. He can 190 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 2: do that, And so you build on that, and you 191 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 2: get a couple of weeks in of this, and because 192 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 2: defenses are gonna evolve, right, they're gonna they're they're you know, 193 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 2: they're they're not They're gonna change their coverages for the 194 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 2: quick routes and the underneath stuff, and that will open 195 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 2: some opportunities deep. Well, then you gotta kind of expand 196 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 2: the route tree and say all right, we're gonna start 197 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 2: hitting them with this and this and this. So it's 198 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 2: kind of a reset, I think in some ways, and 199 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 2: we'd had the perfect team to do it because you know, 200 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 2: Paul and I we talked about it during the game. 201 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 2: Is that they play off coverage on the outside, which 202 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 2: you don't see a ton of anymore. But these corners, man, 203 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 2: I mean, say, are still and Jonathan Jones, We're lining 204 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 2: up nine ten yards off and backpedaling. I mean, you 205 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 2: don't see that a lot. And we were able to 206 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 2: take advantage of the outside. So in that regard, it 207 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: was a perfect perfect storm and Jay and then McCarthy 208 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 2: benefited from it. But we'll see this, We'll see this 209 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 2: thing I think slowly advanced to look a little bit 210 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 2: more like what we saw in the past. And we 211 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 2: we're going to have to take our time because he's young. 212 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,199 Speaker 2: He's young, he's a rookie. Are still like a rookie. 213 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 4: Time for one more So if and I dealt with 214 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 4: this a bit on fan line yesterday, and I watch 215 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 4: your take, so expanding on that with JJ and the 216 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 4: coach and evolving, if someone was to flippantly say, well, 217 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 4: why did this take until week fourteen for this to happen. 218 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 3: What where would your head be at or where would 219 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 3: you go to? 220 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 4: In response to that, where we've been wanting to see 221 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 4: positivity with JJ. 222 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 3: Saw a bit of it yesterday. 223 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 4: But in terms of like simplifying the offense and some 224 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 4: of the conversations taking place out the week, someone might 225 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,559 Speaker 4: flippantly say, well, it's week fourteen, why haven't we Why 226 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 4: did we do this two months ago? 227 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 2: Well, what's the long what's the longest stretch of games 228 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 2: that JJ McCarthy has played? Two? 229 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 3: Three? 230 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 2: Maybe three? Yeah? 231 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: He played, he played two, missed five, played four, missed one. 232 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, so he hasn't really strung. Uh, he hasn't strung 233 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 2: a whole lot of games together. Yeah, he really hasn't. 234 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 2: Week in and week out. It's an inconsistency and that's 235 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 2: probably my biggest concern for him development wise over the 236 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 2: long run, is just staying healthy, staying on the field, 237 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 2: because you need to be out there week in and 238 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 2: week out. It's like the cornerback position. You may have 239 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 2: a couple of good weeks in a row and then 240 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 2: the guy misses two or three games, Well you kind 241 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 2: of go back to square one. Because there's an evolution 242 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 2: of success. Defenses make the change, then you have to change, 243 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 2: and then you have more success, and then you're like, Okay, 244 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 2: I got that, I got that arrow in my quiver. 245 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 2: I've learned this, and then there's the next one and 246 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 2: the next one, and that That process can continues throughout 247 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 2: your entire career. But then you get at some point 248 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 2: you start building up a catalog of oh, hey, remember 249 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 2: when we did this, and oh hey I remember when 250 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 2: I did that or we you know, we responded this 251 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 2: way or that way. Yeah, and that's when you have 252 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,959 Speaker 2: that's when you start taking things to the next level. 253 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 2: So I just I think his in and out has 254 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 2: really slowed his progress. Hopefully he finishes the rest of 255 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 2: the season and stack some pretty good games together. I 256 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 2: don't expect him to be, you know, flawless the rest 257 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 2: of the year, but put some put some games together 258 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 2: that you have at least an idea going into next 259 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:53,079 Speaker 2: year what you're gonna do. And either way, because of 260 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 2: him being in and out, you have to have a 261 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 2: veteran backup for next year, no question about it in 262 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 2: my mind, because you just don't know. He's still young, 263 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 2: but you just don't know if he's going to be 264 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 2: out there for all seventeen games, so you definitely need 265 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 2: to bring in somebody to back him up. That's ready 266 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 2: to go. 267 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: Thanks my brother, and say hi tomorrow when we're at 268 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: tco PC for x's and o's with Kevin O'Connell.

A little bit they were on 307 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 4: the field for I believe thirty five minutes yesterday. We 308 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 4: dig all of that, but the anatomy of a drive, 309 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 4: and I want to start here in terms of Ben 310 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 4: Leeber on the broadcast yesterday talking about first down success. 311 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 4: The Vikings were having first down success throughout that game yesterday, 312 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 4: and a big part of the seven first downs PA 313 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 4: that the Vikings had during that nineteen play drive. Of 314 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 4: the seven first downs, five of them were runs. And 315 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 4: so just kind of thinking about how this team traditionally operates. 316 00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 3: Pete Bursich hit it on the head. 317 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 4: This is not the offense that we saw with Cousins, 318 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 4: not the offense we saw with Darnold trying to grow 319 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 4: the kid on the fly, but in terms of simplifying 320 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 4: things and creating a platform for the kid to work from, 321 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 4: ten of the nineteen plays were running back runs. 322 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 3: I mean that kind of mix. 323 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 4: Yesterday you got eight from Mason, including the touchdown two 324 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 4: from Aaron Jones. You also then had the JJ third 325 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 4: down scramble, which I think third downs is where we 326 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 4: should really dissect this drive. 327 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: McCarthy eludes a sack in the end zone, and now 328 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: he runs up the middle and he dives up the 329 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: ten yard line and McCarthy may have gone diving for 330 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: the first down. He got a six yard game Chain's move. 331 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:41,639 Speaker 2: J J. 332 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: McCarthy with ten nacity. 333 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 3: I love this whole thing. 334 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: Domination us who knew domination The Minnesota Vikings with a 335 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 1: nineteen play, ninety eight yard touchdown drive after shutting down 336 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: a team with three plays from the two. I mean, 337 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: bottle that whole scenario so we can call on it. 338 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 1: And needed Mason was the bookender from the two to 339 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: the end zone. Yeah, and that play you just played 340 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 1: when I watched it back, one thing that. 341 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 3: It's just the nuance and it's the human name. 342 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: It's just the side the side bits that need to 343 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: be followed closely when you're coming at it from four 344 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: and eight. Well, when McCarthy dove, justin Jefferson, I don't 345 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 1: know what he was yelling, but he was probably about 346 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: fifteen feet away. 347 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 3: Pointing at him and just yelling like you. 348 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 1: They said it with you, you're that guy. But Jefferson 349 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: was just, if only for a moment, very proud of 350 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: his quarterback. 351 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 4: So this is a team ultimately that you know, some 352 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 4: team you know passed to run or you know how 353 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 4: you set up your game plans on a week to 354 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 4: week basis in the Kevin O'Connell offense, just quickly. 355 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: As context goes off what you just said, and played 356 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: five third downs on was it five to five third down? 357 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 1: Five third downs? Yeah, with an average yards to gain 358 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: of seven yards? 359 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 2: Yep. 360 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 1: Okay, so third and seven on average, and that includes 361 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 1: the Mason TD run and that was third and one. 362 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 1: They started six for six on third down anyway. 363 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:13,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, they did. 364 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 4: Indeed, Now sadly they had trouble the rest of the 365 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 4: game finishing up on third downs. I think there were 366 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 4: six of eleven when it was all said and done, 367 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 4: converted a couple of nice fourth downs. 368 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 3: Yesterday we dig. 369 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: That somebody pissed off Jonathan Jones and Deron Payne and 370 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: they decided to play really hard in the second half. 371 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 4: So when you mentioned those third downs, I think as 372 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 4: cool as it was yesterday, complimentary football, We got takeaways, 373 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 4: vikings offense on shorter fields. You love all of that, 374 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 4: and you run for a bucks sixty two in total. 375 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 4: I think it's a buck forty three. We'll call it 376 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 4: from the running backs themselves, as JJ had some yards 377 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 4: on the ground too, But it does come down to 378 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 4: the third downs, and it came down to a third 379 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 4: and six. You heard on the scramble, It came down 380 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 4: to a third nine and the quarterback, not the running backs, 381 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 4: had to make the play. 382 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: Karthy facing a poor man rush throws left, caught first. 383 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 3: Down, that heartless Chial and Naylor. 384 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: He's quite identifiable in the early stages gain of twelve 385 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: and a first down. 386 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 4: So the evolution of this offense, and we saw we saw, 387 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,160 Speaker 4: I mean basically, we saw everything we needed to see 388 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 4: yesterday during this freaking nineteen play. Juggernaut of a drive 389 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 4: goes ninety eight, takes twelve minutes in a second off 390 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 4: the clock. 391 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 3: We love all that. 392 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: I think there was a Jefferson screen left that didn't 393 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,919 Speaker 1: do anything that was hideous, So even Jeff I mean, 394 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: but you're right, we saw everything. 395 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 4: Well that wasn't didn't that feel if you remember back, 396 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 4: it's like, well, hold on, we're like twelve or thirteen 397 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 4: plays into this. We haven't gone eighteen's way. 398 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 5: Let's do something to make eighteen feel like he's. 399 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: Part of the bit right, And and darisaw got to 400 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: his guy Laide Hawkinson looked like he was on the 401 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: wrong side of his guys down goes eighteen clipping penalties. 402 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 4: But the evolution of this offense, and I think it's 403 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:06,679 Speaker 4: going to continue to require patients for Justin Jefferson because 404 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 4: yesterday the growth element here was the processing was a 405 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 4: little faster and he was taking the easy stuff. The 406 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 4: Washington commanders Pete hit on it. I was listening to 407 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,120 Speaker 4: part of the TV broadcast as well, and they both 408 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 4: areas mentioned radio or TV that you saw their corners 409 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 4: playing off coverage and they play a lot of zone, 410 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 4: and they don't blitz a lot these days because half 411 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 4: of Dan Campbell's defensive roster is injured, so they're not 412 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 4: sending an extra guy all the time. They just want 413 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 4: to make him muddy and zone and rally to the 414 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 4: tackle point. And JJ was taking what was available to 415 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 4: him again, third down prowess. That was a third and 416 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 4: nine to Nailor this is third and eight to Jordan Addison. 417 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: The Vikings have run it ten times and thrown at 418 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 1: seven and run. The second course is crazy, JJ McCarthy. 419 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: Third and eight from the Commander's forty nine PRIs Jefferson 420 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 1: in motion to the right, back to the four men rush, 421 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 1: JJ quickfiring left top first out at the twenty seven 422 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 1: yard line, Shordan Addison a quick fire that got him 423 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: matched up with safety Kwan Martin. That'll be a connection 424 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: of twenty two and another Minnesota Vikings first down absolutely 425 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: in nextes and nose with Ko tomorrow. 426 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,919 Speaker 3: I'm going to bring that play up. It went for 427 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 3: twenty one yards. 428 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: It was right hash Mark over to the left sideline, 429 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: right in front of O'Connell. McCarthy had a good pocket 430 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 1: that fanned out. He stepped up. Now Jefferson or Oliver 431 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: or maybe both, there could have been some hits there too, 432 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 1: but he eyeballed Addison and split it. It probably was 433 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: a little low, but he split safety Kwan Martin and 434 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,479 Speaker 1: the cornerback Saint was still I think, but he split 435 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: those two. I'm going to say to Kevin O'Connell, for 436 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: my days, man, and you watch them all and I don't. 437 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 1: I think that's one of the best throws he's had 438 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: in his young career. Because of the complementary nature. Right 439 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: moving company protects fans the guys out. 440 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 3: He steps up. 441 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: There are no block shots, no passes, defense to the 442 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 1: line and fires a bullet where elite arm strength is 443 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 1: required to go from that hashmark to that sideline and 444 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: it goes for twenty one. 445 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,959 Speaker 4: Well, and I wonder a dissection of a drive, how 446 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 4: about dissection of a play? 447 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 3: Is there a growth moment there? 448 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 4: Because if you remember just a couple of weeks ago 449 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 4: against the Bears, I think it was against the Bears, 450 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 4: someone in the text line will definitely tell me if 451 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 4: I'm wrong. Against the Bears, similar play right hash going 452 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 4: far left to the boundary, so they're going right to 453 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,199 Speaker 4: left on your TV screen near side. Early in the 454 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 4: Bears game, JJ misses a similar route run by Addison 455 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 4: and he throws it. I mean it bound. It had 456 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,880 Speaker 4: to bounce twice before it got to Addison. On that play, 457 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 4: it was an idios throw. But this time yesterday now 458 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 4: similar again. I mean, that's probably what forty forty five 459 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 4: yards real distance that he has to chuck that thing, yep, 460 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 4: and he hit it on a freaking frozen rope. So 461 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 4: maybe even dissection of a play. He saw that route 462 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 4: open a couple of weeks ago and just whiffed. 463 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 3: On it, and this time he daggered it. That's a 464 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 3: nice moment for. 465 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 1: Jjfank minimizing the Josh Freeman moments. Each and every game. 466 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,199 Speaker 1: I mean there was only one bad overthrow. Yeah that 467 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: was that was on this drive. It was right side 468 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 1: a commander's bench. Yeah, I can't It might have been 469 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: Addison or Jefferson. Was it was Addison? 470 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, So I mean minimizing the Josh Freeman moments. I mean, 471 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 3: it's a stap and it was. 472 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 4: It was an easy pitch and catch opportunity for him too. 473 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 3: I'm glad you put that Addison twenty one in there. 474 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 4: But it was it was the only one. And again, 475 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 4: think about how different this drutlall. Obviously this drive goes differently. 476 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 4: If he doesn't hit those third downs that you've heard, 477 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,400 Speaker 4: this game potentially is different. I mean that just kind 478 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 4: of the ripple effect of how this works. And then 479 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 4: finally it's a third and twelve. We tried to force 480 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,199 Speaker 4: Jefferson into the mix and that went south in a 481 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 4: freaking hurry, the loss of two on the quick out. 482 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 3: So it's third and twelve. I need to move the 483 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 3: chains again. 484 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 4: After a couple of bad runs, Let's get it to 485 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 4: eighteen and see what he can. 486 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: Sixteenth play of a possession that's gone sixty eight yards 487 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: Minnesota three of three on third down third and twelve 488 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 1: from the Commander's thirty. McCarthy throws over the middle clock 489 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 1: Jefferson to the twenty five, turns it up to the 490 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: twenty and now with his back to the goal line, 491 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: fall backwards for fourteen and a Minnesota Vikings first down. 492 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson well Ton Paul that one. 493 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 4: How about those third down conversions man third and six, 494 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 4: third and nine, third and eight, third and twelve, and 495 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,919 Speaker 4: then on a third and one Jordan Mason finishes it 496 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 4: off third. 497 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 1: And one from Minnesota from the eighth, the Vikings are 498 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: four or four on third down. McCarthy under center, hands 499 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: it to Mason, sprint to. 500 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 3: The left to the five to the zone touch. 501 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: Jorden Mason with his six rushing touchdown this year, and 502 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: Minnesota has taken up thirteen Zerioly. 503 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 4: You're begging him to run it on third and short, Pa, 504 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 4: and he did it yesterday. He was running on first 505 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 4: down seeing success. The kid QB is converting third and 506 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 4: medium and longers four of them during that drive, on 507 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,959 Speaker 4: one with his legs and three with his arms. And 508 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 4: then on third and one you're getting to the doorstep 509 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 4: and Jordan Mason finishes it off so you got the 510 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,919 Speaker 4: first down running, you got the second down success, you 511 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,199 Speaker 4: have the third down stuck and need to convert, and 512 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 4: you convert them. And in the end you had a 513 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 4: drive ninety eight yards. It was forty eight on the ground, 514 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,919 Speaker 4: fifty three in the pass. The kid was five or 515 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 4: six throwing it. Say, you know, only in completion was 516 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 4: that overthrow to Addison. It's just everything that you wanted 517 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 4: to see. Again, the evolution of JJ is is it's 518 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 4: going to require patients, which Efferson where he's finding Naylor? 519 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 3: Hey, why doesn't he get the tight ends involved? 520 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,199 Speaker 4: Can you get the tight ends anymore involved than you 521 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 4: got him yesterday with the three tight end touchdowns? Yeah, 522 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 4: So the easy stuff, a little quicker processing, and then, 523 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 4: just as he said it himself during those drive bys, 524 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 4: a cooler and calmer appearance. 525 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 3: It showed, I think for the most part. 526 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 4: Had there was a bad maybe their first possession of 527 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 4: the third quarter was kind of a quick and ugly one, 528 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,679 Speaker 4: but other than that, JJ looked the part yesterday. Did 529 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 4: he do it against a bad defense, Absolutely, but he 530 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 4: did what he was supposed to do against that bad defense, 531 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 4: and the most impressive drive of the season taking place, 532 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 4: and nine was the maestro in the mix on those 533 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 4: third downs. 534 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: Well, the next defense they get into the week was 535 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: thirtieth in yards allowed. The one they just scorched thirty 536 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: first with the yards allowed. So now you run more 537 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 1: than you pass, you kill it in the time of possession. 538 00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 1: You get three tight end touchdowns. Eberflus shaking in his 539 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: tennis shoes. 540 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 3: I always love that one. 541 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 1: O'Connell set it up beautifully to throw eighty percent of 542 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 1: the time. Ohconnell got it all set up for double 543 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,120 Speaker 1: moves up and down on Sunday night. 544 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 4: But Bob, well, we were we were joking about it 545 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 4: on fanline yesterday, like do you think you know obviously 546 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 4: in jest, like he's he's addicted to those deep plays 547 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 4: like that. The head coach is sitting there like, okay, well, 548 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,399 Speaker 4: I mean, but JJ was open deep plays. JJ was 549 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 4: open for that explosive right there. 550 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 3: We haven't had any this year, and. 551 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 4: He's just he's just sitting there. He's like, Okay, yeah, 552 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 4: it's fine, it's good. And we that's why we got 553 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 4: Jordan Mason. Certainly, that's that's cute, that's fun. I'm glad 554 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 4: he got that rushing touch. But Jefferson. Jefferson's over on 555 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 4: the deep post. Yes, why are we not hitting the 556 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 4: deep post? 557 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 3: It's cool? Yeah, speedy Naylor contract year. 558 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 4: It might end up costing us money if we see 559 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 4: any more success from Naylor. 560 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 3: Uh, there's Jefferson. There's Jefferson right there. For it's an easy, quick, 561 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 3: and easy thirty five yards. He's just spent in the 562 00:28:58,640 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 3: whole week. 563 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 4: JJ's gonna throw at fifty six times on Sunday night. 564 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 4: I'll throw at fifty three. Jefferson will throw at three. 565 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 4: Stop Jefferson not in the backfield one time yesterday eber 566 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 4: Flues shaking in tennis shoes, wondering what's next. On the 567 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 4: Mason rushing touchdown again, Jordan Mason was the bookender on 568 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 4: that nineteen ninety eight twelve oh one. It's the second 569 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 4: it's only the second ninety eight yard touchdown drive in 570 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 4: the NFL this year. 571 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 3: But it was us. 572 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: It was the Minnesota Vikings running more than they're passing, 573 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:39,479 Speaker 1: connecting on every third down and going nineteen plays and 574 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: taking up twelve minutes in a second, where into the 575 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,239 Speaker 1: game the Vikings were twenty seven minutes and change with 576 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 1: the time of possession twenty ninth in the NFL, so 577 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: that undoubtedly will get better. 578 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 3: And finally on. 579 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: The Mason touchdown, run a wonderful, wonderful play design and 580 00:29:56,200 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 1: that everything went right hard, including Mason, but then he 581 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 1: kind of he kind of swung it back to the left, 582 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,959 Speaker 1: just had one corner to get through and that was easy. 583 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: But on on the critical moment as Mason encountered the corner, TJ. 584 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 3: Hockinson just mashing. 585 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: On on Commander's defensive lineman and and linebackers to make 586 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: sure it was a one on one between the running 587 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: back and the corner. That plays into the human nature 588 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: gets to win too, because I mean, that's a violent 589 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: play where there are a lot of people in a 590 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: claustrophobic situation. That's when you potentially, if you ain't, if 591 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: you ain't doing it right, could go down and then 592 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: you're rehabbing in the off season. So the the the 593 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: want to and the approach to each and every game 594 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: has been ten to ten from an energy standpoint and 595 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 1: from an intensity standpoint. So uh, it'll need to continue 596 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys. 597 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 3: And finally, your kicker, your kicker will REKERD. 598 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: Sixty one of sixty one on extra points dang Man 599 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: sixty one of sixty one.
