We're gonna break down the tape, tell 0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:39.400 you where I thought it went right, where I thought 0:00:39.400 --> 0:00:42.360 it went wrong, will contextualize the data from PFF and 0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:45.159 next Gen Stats, will scan the social We'll look at 0:00:45.200 --> 0:00:47.400 snap counts. We're gonna do a whole lot on this 0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:50.960 edition of Drive Time from the Baptist Health Studios inside 0:00:50.960 --> 0:00:55.080 the Baptist Health Training Complex. This is you Guessed at 0:00:55.080 --> 0:01:01.400 the Drivetime Podcast The Jury Knows. To kick off the 0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:05.000 podcast here, Brian Flores declared on his Monday press conference 0:01:05.200 --> 0:01:08.080 that Jason mccordy and Malcolm Brown would go to the 0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:11.920 injured Reserve. It was reported earlier on Monday by Ian 0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:15.199 Rappaport that mccordy had a suffered had suffered a foot 0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:17.760 injury and was likely to miss some time. Here, Flora's 0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:20.360 confirms at least three weeks for both he and Malcolm Brown, 0:01:20.600 --> 0:01:23.479 and he also declared Jerome Baker Day today after Bake 0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:27.920 left the game playing just ten snaps on Sunday against Atlanta. 0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:31.479 It's Tuesday. That means we're talking about ALL twenty two 0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:34.120 and the tape here for the Miami Dolphins and becoming 0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:36.680 really my favorite day of the week to even after 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:38.319 a loss, to go back and look at the tape 0:01:38.319 --> 0:01:39.840 and just kind of get a better field for what's 0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:42.320 going on. Really enjoying watching this quarterback on the ALL 0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:44.880 twenty two because I think very highly of a couple 0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:47.080 of things that he does well with with a nuance 0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:49.360 and the subtlety of his game, and that's where he 0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:51.960 kicked off this podcast here taking a look at the 0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:55.520 day from Dolphins quarterback to a tongue Voloa. His thirteenth 0:01:55.520 --> 0:01:58.080 start in the National Football League on balance, probably about 0:01:58.080 --> 0:02:00.320 his twelfth total game when you consider the fact the 0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:03.160 Buffalo last or back in Week two. He played two 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:05.760 series in that game, so the first completion to Jalen 0:02:05.800 --> 0:02:08.240 Waddle and the Dolphins converted three times on third down 0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:11.080 on this opening drive and one of my favorite traits 0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:12.919 of two US I think has really shown up the 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:15.440 last two weeks and in general more this season, a 0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:17.400 little bit more time removed from the injury that he 0:02:17.440 --> 0:02:20.640 suffered back in twenty nineteen. And actually Brian Flores commented 0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:23.600 on this about to his development in his Monday press conference. 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:25.239 If you haven't seen it, go check out the YouTube 0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:27.920 channel and watched Brian Flores in his entirety. But he 0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:30.000 touched on the idea of having two for the last 0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:32.680 eighteen months here in the program and the development of 0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:34.919 the quarterback and how he's grown in so many areas, 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:37.520 and he mentioned the hip injury and all the just 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:40.000 kind of unique circumstances to it has been through since 0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:42.880 he's been here in Miami with that injury, last year's 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:46.720 injury obviously as well. And you know you watch him, 0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:48.960 I mean, he made moves last year in that Cardinals game, 0:02:49.000 --> 0:02:52.040 making Buddha Baker miss and open space. We saw plenty 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:54.720 of it this week and this season in general. And 0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:57.560 I am loving the fact that he's sliding very well, 0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:00.200 like going into second base on a stolen base looks 0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:04.520 very good in that regard. But the mobility within the 0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:07.359 pocket was always an area of strength that I really 0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:10.760 really became quite admirable to with two a tongue of 0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:13.519 blow back to his college day, just having free rushers 0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:15.359 come in. He had that move where the he would 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:17.160 separate the ball from his hands and kind of take 0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.400 a longer step like he's going backwards, and then quickly 0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:22.720 change directions off of that plant foot. And it still 0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:25.560 works for him in that regard and as a scrambler, 0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:28.000 making guys miss an open space. And we're gonna talk 0:03:28.040 --> 0:03:29.880 about it from the pocket here because on this very 0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:33.440 first third down completion, you see him have the ability 0:03:33.480 --> 0:03:37.520 to kind of put his feet wherever he wants, whenever 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:40.080 he wants, as fast as he wants. And when I'm 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:42.440 talking about this, you see him get towards the top 0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:45.040 of that drop, and that left foot it just swings 0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.720 back and because of that new position, it becomes the 0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:50.600 dry foot to move him out to the left. He's 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:54.160 now in a position to vacate that spot quicker than 0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:57.400 the incoming pass rusher can get to it to disrupt 0:03:57.720 --> 0:03:59.920 his past or even sacked the quarterback, and this will 0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:01.640 out him to get to a spot where he could 0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:04.280 throw on time and give the football to Jalen Waddle 0:04:04.280 --> 0:04:06.240 out in space. He does it, makes the catch and 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:08.400 it's a first down. We come right back a couple 0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:10.600 of plays later the second third down conversion of this 0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:13.800 this drive and the Falcons are going to cross dog 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:16.760 the nose and the mic linebacker. What that means is 0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:19.440 the nose, the nose tackle head up over the center 0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:22.320 will crash one gap and the linebacker will come around 0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:24.160 him and crash off the opposite gap. You're trying to 0:04:24.160 --> 0:04:26.960 confuse the protection call there up the middle of the line, 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:29.120 and so the nose gets up field and to his 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:32.000 only real option here is to the left on a 0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:34.040 field side throw. The longer story you can make right 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.000 the far hash and he hits the top of the 0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:38.480 drop and takes a little shuffle step to the left 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:41.520 to clear himself and get himself once again to that 0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:44.320 clean platform where he can throw not just on time 0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:46.920 to the perimeter, but the location of the football. We're 0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:48.840 gonna talk a lot about location today, because I thought 0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:52.360 this this was peaked to AH. As far as location goes, 0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:55.960 the location brings Jalen back away from the perimeter outside 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:58.640 or inside from the sideline and sets him up for 0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:01.680 a move on the over pursuing cornerback who was beat 0:05:01.680 --> 0:05:03.280 at the top of the route at the stem, who 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:06.479 got left behind. He then has to overpursue and because 0:05:06.480 --> 0:05:08.760 of the location, because Jalen comes back and catches it 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:11.760 and turns back inside, it leads to eleven yards after 0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:14.920 the catch for an eighteen yard gaining Dolphin's first down 0:05:15.279 --> 0:05:17.800 another third down conversion opening drive. It's an RP O 0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:21.760 pop to Mike Gasicky. And I've seen the quote multiple times. 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:23.920 It was Brian day ball back when he was with Alabama, 0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:26.440 about how some guys can hit the barn, some guys 0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:28.360 can hit the door on the barn, some guys can 0:05:28.400 --> 0:05:31.160 hit the door knob, some guys or rather twa can 0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:33.640 hit the keyhole on the door knob. And you talk 0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:36.120 about the keyhole accuracy. There it was and to a 0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:38.120 has to get the ball from the mesh point and 0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:40.880 up and out before you can blink. And Dion Jones 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:44.400 has Gassicky in a negative separation like there, he's all 0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:48.280 over him and the football. There's literally one position like 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:50.120 on the entire field of ball can be from Mike 0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:52.240 to have a good chance to stave off the coverage 0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:55.520 and make a tough, contested catch and that's where it was. 0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:56.880 And he had another one of those on the very 0:05:56.920 --> 0:06:00.360 next drive to Mike gasicky keyhole accuracy on those RPO hops. 0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:02.799 If you can put the ball in that spot, there's 0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:04.960 just not many ways to defend that, like to defend 0:06:04.960 --> 0:06:07.359 the run inside, to defend the outside zone read if 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:09.960 two wants to keep it himself and go around the outside, 0:06:10.160 --> 0:06:11.360 or if you want to throw that pop over the 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:13.719 middle and you want to cover from from the backside 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:16.360 with the cornerback playing underneath, maybe a safety closing on top. 0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:19.440 If that ball is that accurate, it makes that package 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:22.719 infinitely more difficult than it already is to defend. And 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:24.880 then I also want to talk about his athletic ability 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:27.359 on scrambles. I mean, we talked about it in the pocket, 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:29.640 but making a guy miss in space with a juke 0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:33.200 move and then the first down when he rushed for 0:06:33.279 --> 0:06:36.240 a key third down conversion after a broken tackle, and 0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:38.880 mind you doing this coming off a broken ribs injury, 0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:41.240 and not just that he gets stood up one yard 0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:43.840 short of the line to gain winds up trucking Eric 0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:45.680 Harris who has to exit the game with an injury, 0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:48.280 and then he dives forward for three or four additional yards. 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:53.720 Like the heart, the the talent, the skill set, the recognition. 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:57.640 I mean, what do you want? I'm left at a loss. 0:06:57.680 --> 0:06:58.960 What do you what more do you want than that? 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.240 That's that's such big time stuff there from your quarterback 0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:04.040 twenty years old doing that kind of stuff. Let's move 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:06.960 on to some more stuff here. So I love the 0:07:07.080 --> 0:07:09.800 late I action you see from two us so frequently 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:13.559 on tape where you can hold. You want to hold 0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:15.760 the particular route you're looking off as long as you 0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:18.520 possibly can, right until the very last second. There's this 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.080 little flip past to savan Akhmed out in the flat 0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:23.160 on a two man route combination to the boundary. The 0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:25.200 boundary is the short side of the field. You should 0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:27.800 know that if you're a Drivetime podcast fan. It's the 0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:30.280 balls in the right hash the boundaries to the right side. 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:32.400 So the falcons on this cover three look, which means 0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:34.560 you're safety is in the middle of the field typically, 0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:36.960 and the two cornerbacks also get depth and they cover 0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:39.600 the deep portion of the field. And thirds. I got 0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:41.800 the left third, you have the middle third, the right 0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:44.800 guy has the right third, and they're in this coverage 0:07:44.880 --> 0:07:48.080 playing really soft coverage underneath as well, so you basically 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:51.880 have six zone defenders taking up or taking care of 0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:53.880 two guys in the route combination. The rest is match 0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:56.800 protect and then Savon Akhmed comes up to chip and 0:07:56.800 --> 0:07:58.760 then get off the route into the flat. So the 0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:01.400 DBS are playing off on that side where Waddle and 0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:04.440 Preston execute what's called a scissors concept, and all that 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:07.640 means is once you get downfield, you cross, and so 0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:10.600 you scissors is downfield, whereas a switch release is at 0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:13.080 the line. Just some more football jargon for you guys, 0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:15.880 But they run this scissors concept down the field. It 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:17.960 takes the DBS all the way down the field and 0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:21.560 to keeps his eyes on that scissors concept down the 0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:25.560 field until Savant chips the outside edge and then releases 0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:27.680 into the flat. And then the minute he does that, 0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:30.400 to his he's over there sound effects on the podcast, 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:32.480 they're over there, and he rips that thing into the 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:35.480 flat and it creates so much room for Savan to 0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:37.800 pick his way, set up blocks. He catches the ball 0:08:37.840 --> 0:08:40.400 three yards behind the line of scrimmage and winds up 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:42.880 with the first down on second and seven. So I 0:08:43.000 --> 0:08:46.160 just I'm so impressed by the ability to create yardage 0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:49.960 with nuance and subtlety. And on this particular play, you 0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:53.640 watch the boundary cornerback check the flat and then he 0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:56.680 bills and gets depth the moment to checks it down. 0:08:56.679 --> 0:09:00.440 To me, this is why there's such a disconnect between 0:09:00.480 --> 0:09:02.560 some of the perception of two A's game out there 0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:05.319 and what he actually is, and why you have people 0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:08.320 crying poor for poor performance in the midst of a 0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:11.160 four touchdown game, or even better, a two week span 0:09:11.520 --> 0:09:14.160 with six passing yards and six touchdowns for two A 0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:16.880 tongue la three interceptions and we'll talk about those. You 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:19.160 have to get those cleaned up. But six touchdowns, six 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:21.840 hundred yards. When's the last time Dolphins quarterback did that? Guys, 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:23.760 I'll let you look it up and let me know. Also, 0:09:23.800 --> 0:09:26.240 by the way, one quarterback, one other quarterback through four 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:30.520 touchdowns this Sunday towards Tom Brady just saying okay, before 0:09:30.520 --> 0:09:33.000 the interception, there's a blown r P O play where 0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:35.160 to tucks it and runs right up the middle. And 0:09:35.160 --> 0:09:36.840 you might have asked yourself during the game, what the 0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:38.920 heck was he doing? Why did he do that? Just 0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:42.000 to run straightforward and slide like he's still in second 0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:45.559 base once again. And the reason for that is if 0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:47.640 the r p O, if you don't give it and 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:49.880 then you don't pop it right away on the past, 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:52.880 after that, you're gonna wind up with ineligible guy's downfield. 0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:55.320 The only option from that point after you you tuck 0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:57.600 it after the initial reads not there is you have 0:09:57.679 --> 0:09:59.240 to throw it away or you have to run it, 0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:01.280 because you're gonna get a flag for that, And so 0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:04.640 he just takes off, gets positive yards and then protects himself. 0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:06.840 I love that aspect of that. So second and seven 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:09.120 opposed to even even second and ten, or if you 0:10:09.200 --> 0:10:12.120 run and lose yards, even second and worse, there's a 0:10:12.280 --> 0:10:14.280 throw and we're gonna get to the negatives after this. 0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:16.560 So this is why you're skipping over the interceptions. But 0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:18.560 there's a throw in the third quarter on an out 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:21.040 route to the boundary to waddle where two one gets 0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:24.000 pressure in his face, and even though the pressure is 0:10:24.040 --> 0:10:26.240 in his face in the direction that he wants to throw, 0:10:26.520 --> 0:10:29.560 he just takes a slide step backwards, plants that dry 0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:31.640 foot in the ground, and throws back across the field 0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:34.520 the other direction with an absolute strike. I mean, it's 0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:36.520 not like a laser, but it's on time and on 0:10:36.600 --> 0:10:38.840 target and it works. Plenty of quarterbacks have had success 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:40.640 doing that for a long long time in this league, 0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:43.080 and two has been doing it now for thirteen games. 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:45.719 Like it's it's doable. You don't have to throw the 0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:47.520 thing as hard as you can to knock over the 0:10:47.520 --> 0:10:49.720 old clown off the carnival game with your you know, 0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:51.400 trying to win the soft animal like you can just 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:53.199 you can layer balls. You can put them there on time. 0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:55.480 That's that's just as effective as throwing the ball through 0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:57.440 someone's chest. And so I thought we saw plenty of that, 0:10:57.640 --> 0:10:59.800 and the ability to throw away from his movement was 0:10:59.840 --> 0:11:01.800 all so impressive. We'll come back to more of that 0:11:01.800 --> 0:11:04.559 here in just a second. After the second interception, it 0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:08.400 was dime after dime after dime boundary double wise. That 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:10.360 means two tight ends into the short side of the field. 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:12.480 Mike Ga Sicky and Dirham Smith. They're gonna run the 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:14.760 switch release. This is not the scissors, it's off the 0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:17.840 line switch immediately, and then they both run vertical, one 0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:20.240 up the sideline, one down the numbers. Mike was on 0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:22.840 the numbers, Dirham down the sideline and he throws it 0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:24.720 up over the top of the defensive back and right 0:11:24.760 --> 0:11:26.920 into the bucket for Dirham to make a catch and 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:30.679 tap the feet. What a throw Wet then over routes 0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:32.680 from either side of the formation. On the very next 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.000 place you have the two slots are running deep crossers 0:11:35.040 --> 0:11:38.120 basically behind the mic linebacker. They're gonna cross their patterns 0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:41.640 and to slides away from pressure and throws twenty seven 0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:43.920 yards in the air. Falling away from the throw because 0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:45.840 he has pressure to the left, he wants to throw 0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:48.520 left again, slides back to his right from the right 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:51.400 hash mark to the left numbers twenty seven yards of depth. 0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:55.840 That's roughly thirty forty yard throw dime. I mean, if 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:57.920 I was Trent Dilford, I'd be putting flames on this 0:11:58.000 --> 0:12:00.520 and graphics you'd be calling them Dilford dimes. Then the 0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:03.880 very next play, it's a zone look from the defense, 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:07.080 and whenever you are running the or passing against his zone, 0:12:07.360 --> 0:12:10.320 you don't concern yourself too much with where the receiver is. 0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:13.120 Just put the ball in between the two defenders and 0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:15.520 split them and let the receiver adjust. He does that 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:17.600 on the very next play to Mike get Sicky. Next 0:12:17.800 --> 0:12:19.880 it's an out to waddle. He reads the middle of 0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:22.200 the field. The footwork and this is again another one 0:12:22.240 --> 0:12:24.120 of these traits that I love. He has to speed 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:25.720 it up because the rush is getting there, so you 0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:28.120 see him really expedite the footwork. And if you don't 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:29.480 know what I'm talking about it, you can think I'm 0:12:29.480 --> 0:12:32.079 making it up, like whatever. If you just go look 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:34.320 at a normal drop back where there's no pressure versus 0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:39.240 this one. It's on the the second to last touchdown drive, 0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:41.880 the penultimate touchdown drive that starts with a deep throat 0:12:41.920 --> 0:12:43.600 of Durham Smithe on that drive, So go back and 0:12:43.600 --> 0:12:45.400 look at that. He speeds it up and gets the 0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:47.959 ball out quick to the boundary to waddle on time, 0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:51.480 on target, expedited drop in footwork, very very nice stuff. 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:53.240 Then how about us scramble on third and sick we 0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:55.880 talked about off the broken ribs, drops the shoulder, runs over, 0:12:56.000 --> 0:12:58.240 Eric Harris picks up the first down. Then the very 0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:01.320 next play on the touchdown past of Miles Gaskin. I 0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:03.440 originally thought he was a hair late on this, but 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:06.080 after watching the tape, you actually see him peek back 0:13:06.080 --> 0:13:08.559 to the middle of the field because Waddle runs the 0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:10.680 jet motion to take the eyes to the left, and 0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:13.000 then Gaskin runs the little release route or the little 0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:16.160 swing route to the right, and you see like it's 0:13:16.200 --> 0:13:18.440 open right away, but two doesn't throw it right away. 0:13:18.559 --> 0:13:20.440 And after watching it on tape, you see him kind 0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:22.240 of look back for the peel back defender like a 0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:23.640 tight end and the stick route right in the middle 0:13:23.640 --> 0:13:25.760 of the field, and you see the two defenders that 0:13:25.800 --> 0:13:28.640 are out widest they kind of take that cheese. They 0:13:28.679 --> 0:13:31.240 both take one false step and that was all Miles 0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:33.120 needed to get to the corner of the pylon for 0:13:33.160 --> 0:13:37.920 that touchdown. Then on the go ahead touchdown drive, they 0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:40.880 come right back after a tunnel screen. Didjitalan Waddle is 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:43.800 going backwards after ineligible man down? Phil, I think it 0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:46.320 was first and twenty It's a nice completion to the 0:13:46.320 --> 0:13:48.640 field on an out route, but we get a procedural penalty, 0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:51.080 so now it's first and twenty one. Yeah, I think 0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:53.080 it was first and sixteen. Then first and twenty one, right, 0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:54.920 So they pick it up with a screen and a 0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:57.080 run play, So two good plays. They're just in general 0:13:57.080 --> 0:13:59.440 for the offense to convert first and twenty one into 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:02.040 a first down. Then we get back into third and fifteen. 0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:03.720 And if you're a Dolphins fan, how many times we've 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:06.640 seen these comeback attempts wiped out by something like that 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:10.040 or just overall failure to get it done, but especially 0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:13.800 third and fifteen. Nope, not this one. Kasicki gets turned 0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:15.880 free and two of fires the ball right to meet 0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:18.840 him at his landmark. Another note on Gasicki on that 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:20.800 in just one second. But then we come right back 0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:23.320 with a touchdown past to mac Hollands. Good job to 0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:25.960 sell the flat to Miles gascon to pull the conflict 0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:29.080 defender who's possibly going to be in the passing lane 0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:31.720 for mac Hollins. He bites up on the look to 0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:34.480 the flat, boom opens the window layer right behind him 0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:36.800 for the go ahead score. What a tape. I thought 0:14:36.840 --> 0:14:38.680 it was one of the best quarterback tapes we've seen 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:41.480 for this football team in a long, long time. And 0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:43.480 there are four negative plays I want to break down 0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:45.240 real quick for you get to everybody else. I know 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:47.240 it's a long podcast here, but your quarterback throws the 0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:49.880 ball forty times. That's what you get um there. I'm 0:14:49.920 --> 0:14:51.840 not gonna call him airs, but just things I think 0:14:51.840 --> 0:14:54.680 that could have gone better. First off, second drive, first throw. 0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:56.880 It's a comeback to mc collins. Just thought he was 0:14:56.880 --> 0:14:59.080 a little bit late. Mac creates some separation on the 0:14:59.080 --> 0:15:00.800 curl route and the ball is a little bit late 0:15:00.800 --> 0:15:03.080 in the defensive bat got his hand around the backside 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:07.400 and broke that thing up. Number two, second quarter, second 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:09.720 and fourteen throws the ball to Preston Williams, does that 0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:12.800 little spin move or whatnot, and waddle clears the second 0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:16.320 window of the zone defense on a little seam pot 0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:19.080 pass opportunity. And two has the protection and it's too 0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:22.240 high safeties underneath umbrella, so he finds himself in that 0:15:22.320 --> 0:15:25.320 kind of fifteen yard range clear of any defender, and 0:15:25.400 --> 0:15:28.160 he gets into that space pretty quickly with some more 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:30.680 space behind him. I think there's an opportunity to hit 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:32.680 that opposed to the quick ball out on the perimeter 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:35.640 to a stationary target, get the ball to Wattle fifteen 0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:38.040 yards downfield on the move, opposed to a seven yard 0:15:38.080 --> 0:15:40.480 or so hitch route to a stationary target who's not 0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:43.000 working his way downfield, and I just prefer that. Again, 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:44.800 don't know the progression, but I would like to see 0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:46.760 or hopefully they can find a way to get the 0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:49.120 ball to that read on that particular look, and then 0:15:49.160 --> 0:15:51.320 number three, both these ex players are gonna be interceptions 0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:53.760 the first I and T. It looks to me like 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:56.120 Durham's not expecting the ball and there and kind of 0:15:56.160 --> 0:15:58.000 lies the first fault in my opinion, I don't think 0:15:58.040 --> 0:15:59.920 the ball is supposed to go there because the safety 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:02.280 catch the tight end. And it's again another one of 0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:05.560 these cover two looks, and smythe is the one receiver 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:08.880 to the boundary, the furthest out receiver to the boundary, 0:16:08.920 --> 0:16:11.080 and they're in Cover two. There's a soft corner getting 0:16:11.080 --> 0:16:12.800 depth on the outside, so it's a tough throw to 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:15.520 sneak that into the turkey hole anyway. But if you 0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:18.800 look at to his head, he's looking to the back 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:21.880 to the boundary. Who's Miles Gaskin, who runs the flat 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:23.560 route And as you guys know, on that cover to 0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:26.840 your flat is supposed to pull that cornerback, playing that 0:16:27.000 --> 0:16:30.640 kind of flat slatch, deep hook zone or deep curl zone. 0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:32.640 You want to pull him into the flat. And then 0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:36.040 Durham's kind of plant drive step off the top of 0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:37.920 that route. It just looks to me like he's not 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:40.520 expecting the ball. He kind of just drifts backwards into 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:42.360 the end zone. Not backwards, but he kind of drifts 0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:44.720 into the end zone without real urgency. And I even 0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:46.320 think that if he sticks his foot in the ground 0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:48.840 and flattens that thing, or even just continues to run 0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:51.160 the route, he might have a chance to make a catch. 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:53.400 But it doesn't go that way. So I think it's 0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:55.480 a bad decision to make that throw based upon the 0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:58.000 rules of route versus coverage from my own knowledge, and 0:16:58.040 --> 0:16:59.800 when I think I saw on that play, I could 0:16:59.840 --> 0:17:01.880 be wrong. I asked a lot of people about this play, 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:04.399 including including coach Flora's we're gonna hear from here in 0:17:04.440 --> 0:17:07.720 just one second, but I also think you've got to 0:17:07.760 --> 0:17:10.359 help your quarterback out on that particular play. Let's go 0:17:10.400 --> 0:17:12.879 to Brian Flowers, who I asked about this on Monday 0:17:12.960 --> 0:17:16.560 his press conference about that interception, and asking him about 0:17:16.560 --> 0:17:20.720 the kind of philosophy behind wanting your quarterback to be aggressive, 0:17:20.760 --> 0:17:24.679 as he had mentioned earlier in the media availability, but 0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:26.960 also trying to calibrate when to be more cautious and 0:17:26.960 --> 0:17:29.800 how to balance that with a young quarterback. Especially asked 0:17:29.800 --> 0:17:35.120 coach about that. Here's his response. I think that's a 0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:37.560 very valid point I think you want to be aggressive, 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:41.920 but you also you want to make smart decisions and 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:51.040 not put the team in position where, um, you could 0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:54.480 potentially turn the ball over or create a negative play. 0:17:54.560 --> 0:17:59.120 So um, that's a that's that's that's a fine balance. 0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:06.520 I think every quarterback kind of goes through that. That 0:18:06.520 --> 0:18:10.280 that that thought process. I think a lot of it 0:18:10.359 --> 0:18:14.959 is is based on what defense you're seeing, the players 0:18:15.000 --> 0:18:19.439 you have on the field, and I think a lot 0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:23.480 of it is based on how you practice it. I 0:18:23.480 --> 0:18:27.000 think if you you can see those those areas that 0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:30.840 the field where you can create some chunk plays and 0:18:30.880 --> 0:18:32.920 you hit him in practice, and you have an opportunity 0:18:32.920 --> 0:18:35.639 to him in the game if you get the same look. So, 0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:40.560 but something we practice, something we we uh try to 0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:44.480 put an emphasis on and and then players gotta go 0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:47.359 out there next cute if I could just follow up 0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:49.240 on that real quick to a talked about being a 0:18:49.240 --> 0:18:52.440 miscommunication on that particular throw. Is that something where there's 0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:54.479 a site adjustment post snap where they can kind of 0:18:54.520 --> 0:18:57.199 both read something and make an adjustment based upon the 0:18:57.240 --> 0:19:04.600 original call. Um, which player are you talking about? We 0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:07.920 might be thinking of two different The first interception with 0:19:08.000 --> 0:19:14.080 dirt when Durham Smith is in the area, Okay. Um, Yeah, 0:19:14.119 --> 0:19:17.800 I mean there's there's you know, there's missing miscommunication on 0:19:17.840 --> 0:19:24.000 that one. Um, you know, unfortunately, and yeah, I mean 0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:28.000 it's I think it's one that you know too wishes 0:19:28.040 --> 0:19:32.159 he had back, Durham wishes he had back, And I 0:19:32.200 --> 0:19:34.000 think it's something we gotta learn from. Yeah, there's you know, 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:35.520 when you when you when you look at it that way, 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:37.520 you know, there's some other places we could have went 0:19:37.560 --> 0:19:41.720 with it. Um. But you know what I like about 0:19:41.800 --> 0:19:47.040 like about most about that was tools response, Durham's response, 0:19:47.920 --> 0:19:51.320 and being able to turn it around and create some 0:19:51.359 --> 0:19:56.480 positive plays after that mishappen, so that you have coach 0:19:56.520 --> 0:19:59.800 on the first interception the second interception, This one was 0:20:00.640 --> 0:20:03.159 a lot worse to me personally. I think you just 0:20:03.200 --> 0:20:05.440 cannot put the ball into harm's way in that position 0:20:05.760 --> 0:20:08.000 because the best case scenario there is that Jalen catches 0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:09.919 the ball and gets blown up, and you are a 0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:12.000 tad bit unlucky that the minute to have flips the 0:20:12.040 --> 0:20:14.800 thing out there. Jalen then moves in the opposite direction 0:20:14.800 --> 0:20:16.680 and makes it a room service pick for the linebacker. 0:20:16.720 --> 0:20:19.159 But you just you can't do that, not in that spot, 0:20:19.440 --> 0:20:22.080 not on first down especially, I think you're just pressing 0:20:22.080 --> 0:20:24.000 a little bit too much there off the quick change, 0:20:24.040 --> 0:20:26.399 because Miami had just gotten the takeaway and could have 0:20:26.480 --> 0:20:29.000 gone down taken the lead right there. And you know, 0:20:29.080 --> 0:20:32.360 part of the press is that Grady Jarrett and he's 0:20:32.359 --> 0:20:34.679 white right into his face off the snap and he 0:20:34.720 --> 0:20:36.960 has to get rid of that ball quickly. So that 0:20:37.240 --> 0:20:38.960 is the tongue by a lower review here on the 0:20:38.960 --> 0:20:42.280 All twenty two Tuesday podcast on the Drivetime podcast part 0:20:42.320 --> 0:20:45.639 of the Miami Dolphins podcast network presented by Auto Nation, 0:20:45.920 --> 0:20:48.760 talking about the rest of the players on offense, Jalen Waddle, 0:20:48.960 --> 0:20:51.199 I'm just really a big fan of the way he 0:20:51.240 --> 0:20:54.120 can again some of these nuanced aspects of his game 0:20:54.160 --> 0:20:57.040 for such a young player, attacking leverage but also stacking 0:20:57.280 --> 0:20:59.840 and chasing blind spots. There's a second and ten can 0:21:00.040 --> 0:21:02.679 version in the third quarter where he stacks the underneath corner, 0:21:02.920 --> 0:21:06.080 presses inside to kind of get on that blind spot 0:21:06.080 --> 0:21:08.000 and lose him because he's got eyes in the quarterback 0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:09.760 and he whips that thing right back out to the 0:21:09.800 --> 0:21:12.800 outside to space and there's all kinds of separation and 0:21:12.880 --> 0:21:14.840 an easy pitch and catch for a first down. He 0:21:14.920 --> 0:21:16.960 just does that every single game, and we saw a 0:21:17.000 --> 0:21:19.200 deeper depth of target in this game. Hopefully we continue 0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:22.160 to see that grow and increase from here. Malcolm Brown 0:21:22.280 --> 0:21:24.399 very first play of the game, it's a wide uh 0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:27.480 wind's back a split zone run backside, and it first 0:21:27.480 --> 0:21:29.639 thought I thought Robert Hunt fell off of his block. 0:21:29.840 --> 0:21:32.040 But if Malcolm just presses that thing play side, then 0:21:32.119 --> 0:21:34.600 Rob's in perfect position. And that's kind of you know, 0:21:34.600 --> 0:21:36.600 I don't know the design of these plays obviously, or 0:21:36.600 --> 0:21:38.480 where he's supposed to hit that, but I think it's 0:21:38.480 --> 0:21:41.680 a reminder that on first glance, especially without having all 0:21:41.680 --> 0:21:43.639 the knowledge of the call or the coaching points of 0:21:43.680 --> 0:21:46.160 the rules, you can't really assign blame on a particular 0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:49.560 play or you know, especially not seeing the in the 0:21:49.600 --> 0:21:51.480 first time. But I think it's a good example of 0:21:51.480 --> 0:21:54.080 how two guys on a different page would be. One 0:21:54.080 --> 0:21:55.720 guy doesn't hit the right the job of the right way, 0:21:55.800 --> 0:21:59.239 just taking turns, just having these small mistakes that cost you. 0:21:59.520 --> 0:22:01.480 That's what I get cleaned up and fixed to become 0:22:01.480 --> 0:22:03.520 more consistent, become a better football team as we go 0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:07.199 along here. Now, Austin Jackson, However, I'm not sure the 0:22:07.240 --> 0:22:10.120 technique that's that's causing this. But so many times he's 0:22:10.200 --> 0:22:12.520 I called the you know, I knew it was you, Fredo. 0:22:12.800 --> 0:22:15.240 He throws the hands wide and puts himself in position 0:22:15.280 --> 0:22:17.439 to get his hands on the outside of the shoulder pads, 0:22:17.560 --> 0:22:19.280 and that's where they're gonna call holding the most. So 0:22:19.400 --> 0:22:20.919 I kind of watched him doing that a little bit 0:22:20.920 --> 0:22:23.399 too often, and hopefully he can get that that fixed 0:22:23.400 --> 0:22:27.200 and corrected. But as far as like pulling him as 0:22:27.200 --> 0:22:30.480 a pulling guard, he's very smooth and actually hits a 0:22:30.480 --> 0:22:33.120 lot of good blocks in that area, super smooth and 0:22:33.119 --> 0:22:36.040 and flew out of the first step. But then after that, 0:22:36.119 --> 0:22:39.199 on this particular play, he takes this gather step and 0:22:39.280 --> 0:22:41.840 kills all the momentum he had and the unblocked man 0:22:41.880 --> 0:22:44.080 beats him for a tackle for loss. That was quite 0:22:44.200 --> 0:22:47.119 prevalent in this game. Uh some TFLs coming from that 0:22:47.359 --> 0:22:50.200 defensive tackle position up over the left guard. I counted 0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:52.800 at least five times where his reps where his hand 0:22:52.880 --> 0:22:54.720 star outside in the rep. I hope that gets fixed 0:22:54.720 --> 0:22:56.880 here soon. I also thought he had the best repent 0:22:56.960 --> 0:22:59.560 entire career in this game. On the first touchdown of 0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:02.320 the second and half where he chips and doubles Grady 0:23:02.400 --> 0:23:05.200 Jarrett with Liam Eichenberg. Then he comes off that block 0:23:05.240 --> 0:23:07.359 and digs out Dion Jones on the other side of 0:23:07.359 --> 0:23:09.520 the gap to create a gap. Then he showed some 0:23:09.600 --> 0:23:12.240 juice and energy. Was good to see Austin Jackson enjoying 0:23:12.320 --> 0:23:14.880 himself after that after a couple of big blocks there. 0:23:15.280 --> 0:23:19.080 But this team just again, there's often so often one 0:23:19.119 --> 0:23:21.360 block away. There's a second play of the game. It's 0:23:21.359 --> 0:23:23.760 a screen pass where Robert Hunt. He gets out there 0:23:23.760 --> 0:23:25.760 and we've got some space. But when he has to 0:23:25.840 --> 0:23:28.919 engage initially it's just it's he misses him and it's 0:23:29.000 --> 0:23:31.480 hit or missing this position, and you just want to 0:23:31.520 --> 0:23:34.040 see more hits. I do think in general for rob 0:23:34.080 --> 0:23:36.480 he's better when he's moving towards this target opposed to 0:23:36.480 --> 0:23:39.479 being stationary. And you know, his run blocking was so 0:23:39.520 --> 0:23:41.240 good throughout the course of this game. He took a 0:23:41.240 --> 0:23:43.720 man all the way across the formation, just took him 0:23:43.720 --> 0:23:45.320 out of the play. Then he climbed up to the 0:23:45.359 --> 0:23:47.879 second level and has good patience and control on that 0:23:47.960 --> 0:23:50.840 approach where he's not making contact right away but rather 0:23:50.840 --> 0:23:52.960 getting to a guy on a pole or a reach 0:23:53.040 --> 0:23:55.480 or getting in space, climbed to the second level, hands 0:23:55.520 --> 0:23:58.280 under his feet, just you know, some good technique and 0:23:58.280 --> 0:24:00.880 some good fundamentals. Just a few more are rap notes here. 0:24:00.880 --> 0:24:02.479 I think he had a really good game and execute 0:24:02.560 --> 0:24:05.040 different kinds of blocks throughout the course of the game, 0:24:05.160 --> 0:24:07.679 especially in the running game where the pulling action I 0:24:07.680 --> 0:24:10.760 thought was really fantastic. Liam Eichenberg on the very first 0:24:10.760 --> 0:24:12.919 play of the game, the initial stunt that he sees, 0:24:13.160 --> 0:24:15.360 he loses the inside post and then I look back 0:24:15.359 --> 0:24:16.800 at my notes and about the third quarter of the 0:24:16.800 --> 0:24:19.280 game and just thought, I haven't written down anything about Liam. Yeah, 0:24:19.320 --> 0:24:21.320 that's a great thing for an offensive lineman. So I'm 0:24:21.320 --> 0:24:22.720 back and looked at some of the players and he's 0:24:22.760 --> 0:24:25.359 handling isolations, he's picking up stunts. Thought he had a 0:24:25.440 --> 0:24:27.840 very good game. Austin Ryder I thought had a good game. 0:24:27.840 --> 0:24:30.040 I think maybe he's good to recovery. On the on 0:24:30.080 --> 0:24:32.760 the initial one on one rep from Grady Jerry, he 0:24:32.800 --> 0:24:34.720 anchors and kind of locks him out there. He has 0:24:34.720 --> 0:24:36.399 a play where he gets a second level climb and 0:24:36.400 --> 0:24:38.480 he goes and gets them, doesn't let them come into him. 0:24:38.480 --> 0:24:40.879 He goes and gets them. I like that mentality. I 0:24:40.880 --> 0:24:42.919 think he stayed on blocks better than anybody else in 0:24:42.960 --> 0:24:45.640 this game. From Miami, I'm intrigued by a possible tough 0:24:45.640 --> 0:24:47.920 decision they might have to make when you know Dieter 0:24:48.040 --> 0:24:50.280 Manson and Austin Ryder are all back. I think all 0:24:50.320 --> 0:24:52.320 three have played well this year. From Miami. Thought it 0:24:52.359 --> 0:24:54.520 was Jesse Davis his very best game. A lot of 0:24:54.520 --> 0:24:56.439 one on one blocks for him and he executed him. 0:24:56.440 --> 0:24:58.320 That's all you gotta say about a good dub good game, Jesse. 0:24:58.800 --> 0:25:01.919 I thought Myles Gascon was very a decisive pressing the 0:25:01.960 --> 0:25:03.680 gap often to the course of those games, how he 0:25:03.760 --> 0:25:06.560 ran very well, just kept coming back to decisive watching 0:25:06.600 --> 0:25:08.679 him run, hitting the gap and getting that thing to 0:25:08.680 --> 0:25:11.000 the second level to get himself a nice rushing day. 0:25:11.160 --> 0:25:14.160 I think Savon Ahmed it's just a different speed than 0:25:14.200 --> 0:25:17.160 every other back on the roster. He's got this urgency. 0:25:17.160 --> 0:25:19.800 And we talked about the hip hop style running analogy 0:25:19.840 --> 0:25:22.040 from running backs coach at You dubbed their Keith on 0:25:22.080 --> 0:25:24.600 Offa on the podcast last year, saying that he's hip 0:25:24.640 --> 0:25:26.199 hop in your face. Now you've gotta deal with it 0:25:26.320 --> 0:25:28.960 right now. He's an angle eraser. There's a run in 0:25:29.000 --> 0:25:31.320 the second quarter of the linebacker has him out flanked 0:25:31.520 --> 0:25:34.159 and savon just he erases the angle, beats him to it, 0:25:34.200 --> 0:25:35.960 gets into the into the gap, and turns up field 0:25:35.960 --> 0:25:37.280 for a nice game. So I like his game a 0:25:37.280 --> 0:25:39.280 whole lot. And then Mike get sicky. We talked about 0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:42.840 Wattles nuance to us. Nuance similar for him in terms 0:25:42.840 --> 0:25:44.800 of the subtlety of his game. He just knows how 0:25:44.840 --> 0:25:47.840 to create. We can talk about attacking leverage, but he 0:25:47.880 --> 0:25:51.480 can create and attack the leverage contested catches. He knows 0:25:51.520 --> 0:25:54.080 how to put himself in position to go up clean 0:25:54.119 --> 0:25:56.800 where you're not interfered by the contact, where your hands 0:25:56.800 --> 0:25:59.160 don't get kind of like jostled. He gets himself into 0:25:59.160 --> 0:26:01.320 a clean position up high to high point that thing 0:26:01.520 --> 0:26:04.840 to where contact doesn't matter. It's better functional strength. And 0:26:04.840 --> 0:26:07.120 he's really put it all together now, and you're number four. 0:26:07.240 --> 0:26:08.600 I want to give him a shout out on that 0:26:08.640 --> 0:26:10.520 third and fifteen conversion. So I was gonna come back 0:26:10.560 --> 0:26:13.000 to it. Here we are coming back to it. He 0:26:13.080 --> 0:26:15.880 catches that thing and just gets forward to get past 0:26:15.920 --> 0:26:17.679 the sticks. He was right at the sticks catching it, 0:26:17.880 --> 0:26:19.800 but he didn't leave any doubt. He just jumped forward 0:26:19.800 --> 0:26:22.800 two or three extra yards. Great awareness there by Mike Gasicky, 0:26:23.119 --> 0:26:24.960 and then Durham had I thought his best game of 0:26:24.960 --> 0:26:27.240 the season the run after the catch on that second 0:26:27.240 --> 0:26:30.200 down stick route. Very nice work there. He can denses 0:26:30.480 --> 0:26:32.840 on a block inside on an outside Miles Gas can 0:26:32.960 --> 0:26:35.280 run and dense the edge and gives Miles a quick 0:26:35.320 --> 0:26:38.040 access to the outside edge. So both passing game and 0:26:38.119 --> 0:26:40.000 running game for Durham, thought this was his best game 0:26:40.520 --> 0:26:43.000 of the season. So there you go. Offensively onto the 0:26:43.000 --> 0:26:46.520 defense here real quick. Lots of unique groupings in this game, 0:26:46.560 --> 0:26:49.000 even before some injuries kind of forced their hand to 0:26:49.080 --> 0:26:51.200 do so. On the very first third down of the game, 0:26:51.240 --> 0:26:54.400 they were in a four safety quarter package, seven defensive 0:26:54.400 --> 0:26:56.760 backs with two safeties ten yards off the ball and 0:26:56.800 --> 0:26:59.880 a third safety fifteen yards off the ball. The next 0:27:00.000 --> 0:27:03.960 Avian Howard, Eric rowe Byron Jones, and Nick Needham played 0:27:04.000 --> 0:27:06.399 tight man coverage and they ran them right into that 0:27:06.440 --> 0:27:08.760 safety help. It was beautifully executed as far as a 0:27:09.400 --> 0:27:12.560 eight man coverage goes, and Ryan tried to extend but 0:27:12.600 --> 0:27:14.680 he couldn't get anything going. Agba had one of the 0:27:14.760 --> 0:27:17.640 six pressures in the game on this play. We saw 0:27:17.760 --> 0:27:20.840 more zero defense, some post snap rotation to disguise it, 0:27:20.920 --> 0:27:22.560 to show it and get out of it, and some 0:27:22.640 --> 0:27:25.159 pressure looks as well. I think the variety is getting 0:27:25.160 --> 0:27:28.080 more and more incorporated to this defense. Each week. We 0:27:28.119 --> 0:27:31.480 saw plenty, plenty of double teams on Kyle Pitts, a 0:27:31.840 --> 0:27:35.480 press and trail with over the top like he commands attention. 0:27:35.520 --> 0:27:37.200 He's a beast, and we saw why. In this game. 0:27:37.480 --> 0:27:38.920 It looks to me like there's a lot of chunk 0:27:39.040 --> 0:27:43.320 plays on the ground where you get an initial fill 0:27:43.400 --> 0:27:45.920 from a linebacker or someone that you know playing the point, 0:27:45.960 --> 0:27:48.080 like a safety who comes in and fills and digs 0:27:48.119 --> 0:27:50.080 out the lead block, but then there's no one coming 0:27:50.119 --> 0:27:52.200 over the top to scrape that or fill that gap. 0:27:52.440 --> 0:27:55.320 That's been kind of my assessment on the big running plays, 0:27:55.760 --> 0:27:58.080 good good stacking up front, a nice feel, but no 0:27:58.080 --> 0:27:59.920 one to kind of make that final scrape and fill 0:27:59.920 --> 0:28:02.200 that final gap for you on those big plays. As 0:28:02.200 --> 0:28:03.800 far as those guys up front, I continue to be 0:28:03.880 --> 0:28:05.959 impressed by all of them, really, but Ray Kwon Davis. 0:28:06.119 --> 0:28:08.520 There's a play reruns of the four technique, which means 0:28:08.520 --> 0:28:10.960 your head up over the offensive tackle and so the 0:28:11.000 --> 0:28:12.840 guard has to get wide on a reach block. A 0:28:12.880 --> 0:28:14.440 reach block is when you want to cross the face 0:28:14.440 --> 0:28:16.399 and you have to you're outflanked, but you still have 0:28:16.440 --> 0:28:18.240 to get to that block, and he just knocks the 0:28:18.280 --> 0:28:20.320 guy right back into the running back. In the second 0:28:20.400 --> 0:28:23.200 quarter had an absolute grown man rep on a running 0:28:23.200 --> 0:28:25.920 play that went nowhere. He's playing the nose. He shoots 0:28:25.920 --> 0:28:27.920 his hands to the chess plate and just takes control 0:28:28.160 --> 0:28:31.199 of sixty one Matt Hennessey, and the guard tries to 0:28:31.240 --> 0:28:33.160 move him off of that spot with a double team. 0:28:33.320 --> 0:28:35.440 It doesn't budge him at all, and then Ray Kwan 0:28:35.560 --> 0:28:37.920 just tosses Hennessey to the ground and makes the play. 0:28:37.960 --> 0:28:40.280 I wrote down wows because that's how I felt about it. 0:28:40.480 --> 0:28:42.920 The very next snap, he snatches Pennessey in the exact 0:28:43.000 --> 0:28:45.640 same way on a pass rush, then rips the inside 0:28:45.720 --> 0:28:47.520 arm through and gets to Matt Ryan for a pressure 0:28:47.640 --> 0:28:49.840 who has to rush the throw and then it's batted 0:28:49.880 --> 0:28:52.920 down by Emmanuel Ogba. Speaking of Aga, we talked about 0:28:52.960 --> 0:28:55.200 the cross chop all the time here. On the Falcon's 0:28:55.240 --> 0:28:58.280 first drive after their touchdown to start the third quarter, 0:28:58.480 --> 0:29:01.840 on third down, he runs a straight bul rush right 0:29:01.880 --> 0:29:03.760 into the right tackle and he runs him right into 0:29:03.760 --> 0:29:07.040 Matt Ryan to cause incompletion. Good work there from Agba 0:29:07.120 --> 0:29:09.320 and then Christian Wilkins. My goodness, this guy is playing 0:29:09.320 --> 0:29:11.600 out of his mind. He goes right over the center 0:29:11.640 --> 0:29:13.440 on the nose with his swim move and winds up 0:29:13.480 --> 0:29:15.360 in Matt Ryan's lap on I think the second play 0:29:15.360 --> 0:29:17.760 of the game. Then the retrace that we talked about 0:29:17.760 --> 0:29:20.680 where he chases the screen wide, reverses field. He comes 0:29:20.720 --> 0:29:23.080 back over to the receiver reversing field and pits him 0:29:23.240 --> 0:29:25.520 to finish him off there. I just love watching this 0:29:25.560 --> 0:29:28.040 guy play the hustle. He shows an effort every single week. 0:29:28.280 --> 0:29:30.720 Then later you see some of the previously you know, 0:29:30.920 --> 0:29:33.520 unquantifiable stuff I was talking about the first two years 0:29:33.520 --> 0:29:35.880 of his career start to turn into more production. Here 0:29:35.880 --> 0:29:39.080 working down the lion scrimmage on an outside rome run play, 0:29:39.120 --> 0:29:41.360 plants the foot, pushes his man aside to make sure 0:29:41.400 --> 0:29:44.000 he keeps going, but Christian stops to shed the block there, 0:29:44.240 --> 0:29:46.520 gets into the gap and makes the tackle. He is 0:29:46.560 --> 0:29:50.640 positively destroying reach block attempts with consistency, and that's really 0:29:50.680 --> 0:29:53.840 nice to see. Adam Butler's mistackle on the potential TfL 0:29:53.960 --> 0:29:56.120 I cannot shake that. One had to mention it again 0:29:56.640 --> 0:29:59.240 that one hurt. I thought a land in Roberts had 0:29:59.320 --> 0:30:01.040 tough day. In term is a finding and staying in 0:30:01.120 --> 0:30:03.400 his gap. Just a beat later a hair laid at 0:30:03.400 --> 0:30:05.440 step away from where he needed to be or when 0:30:05.520 --> 0:30:07.520 the play would happen where he You know, ideally you 0:30:07.520 --> 0:30:10.120 want to be just off by a little bit. A 0:30:10.160 --> 0:30:12.680 few times. Andrew Van Gigla think has been playing well 0:30:12.720 --> 0:30:14.000 off the edge in the running game, but he was 0:30:14.040 --> 0:30:16.120 a step late as well in coverage a few times, 0:30:16.160 --> 0:30:18.760 reacting on some of the split zone or wide zone 0:30:18.760 --> 0:30:20.680 with the boot action off of that where you fake 0:30:20.760 --> 0:30:22.760 the run one way, you bring the under round across 0:30:22.800 --> 0:30:25.480 the formation and the quarterback peels off that way also 0:30:25.520 --> 0:30:27.880 and kind of has the layers concept to throw too. 0:30:28.360 --> 0:30:31.080 He made a he just kind of gets lost on 0:30:31.120 --> 0:30:34.480 that flat area. Sometimes he made a fantastic pay playoff 0:30:34.480 --> 0:30:36.800 the edge against double wise that's two tight ends of 0:30:36.840 --> 0:30:39.400 the formation where he beats the block and gets Cordell 0:30:39.440 --> 0:30:41.680 Patterson tripped up on an outside run. And then the 0:30:41.680 --> 0:30:43.840 next play he damn never got in the passing line 0:30:43.840 --> 0:30:45.960 for a pick six, but overran the thing once again. 0:30:46.280 --> 0:30:48.600 Not really find the landmark there in coverage. In the 0:30:48.640 --> 0:30:51.400 defensive backfield. I love how Javon Holland can work to 0:30:51.440 --> 0:30:54.080 depth but then click and clothes immediately and fire out 0:30:54.080 --> 0:30:55.920 of that back pedal. I mean, we've already seen a 0:30:55.960 --> 0:30:57.920 bunch of big hits from this guy, some bubble production 0:30:58.200 --> 0:31:00.440 and that sack on Sunday, but I think there's a 0:31:00.480 --> 0:31:03.600 lot more coming and by that I mean interceptions hopefully 0:31:03.640 --> 0:31:05.560 here in the near future. On the sack, I just 0:31:05.600 --> 0:31:07.479 like the way he snuck up to the line and 0:31:07.520 --> 0:31:10.520 timed his run really perfectly. It's a good job by 0:31:10.560 --> 0:31:13.160 Van Gigl to flatten the edge to winning inside and 0:31:13.200 --> 0:31:15.320 taking on the back to help create a lane to 0:31:15.400 --> 0:31:18.520 run through for Javon. On the long touchdown pass the 0:31:18.600 --> 0:31:21.120 Javan was involved in, I'll chalk it up to growing pains, 0:31:21.120 --> 0:31:23.400 but he tried to jump a potential dig or crosser 0:31:23.480 --> 0:31:26.160 route from Russell Gauge and he just ran right past him. 0:31:26.200 --> 0:31:30.400 But on balance, love Javon Holland's game every single week. Um. 0:31:30.440 --> 0:31:33.160 There's a great rep in general from the Dolphins defensive backfield. 0:31:33.160 --> 0:31:35.600 It was the Emmanuel Ogba force fumble, which again talk 0:31:35.640 --> 0:31:38.120 about effort man. What a play. The Falcons are in 0:31:38.160 --> 0:31:40.000 trips and the Dolphins match it. With their with three 0:31:40.000 --> 0:31:42.360 of their cover guys and Eric Roe, Byron Jones, and 0:31:42.440 --> 0:31:44.680 Nick need Um, and they play staggered off the line. 0:31:44.800 --> 0:31:46.719 Nick need Ums up on the point right across from 0:31:46.760 --> 0:31:49.480 the point man uh Brian Jones is a second and 0:31:49.520 --> 0:31:53.320 aligned outside, Eric Rose third and aligned inside, and they 0:31:53.320 --> 0:31:56.120 all pick a man and plaster immediately off the top 0:31:56.200 --> 0:31:58.920 of the stem and that forces Matt Ryan to tuck 0:31:58.960 --> 0:32:01.160 it and then the second effort there from Ogba in 0:32:01.200 --> 0:32:03.280 the pass rush pays off. I was so impressed by 0:32:03.320 --> 0:32:05.640 that and think it could be indicative of them beginning 0:32:05.640 --> 0:32:07.000 to kind of get the grasp of what they want 0:32:07.000 --> 0:32:09.560 to do and defensively, and then just watching x and 0:32:09.560 --> 0:32:12.480 Byron Jones, you want to see the targets, but also 0:32:12.800 --> 0:32:14.800 plays where they aren't targeted so you can see how 0:32:14.840 --> 0:32:17.400 they're taking things away. And there's one on xaviing Howard 0:32:17.400 --> 0:32:19.200 where he has the post the corner of the curl 0:32:19.320 --> 0:32:21.640 like everything a three way go, and he just closes 0:32:21.680 --> 0:32:23.800 that thing down and takes away all three options. It 0:32:23.840 --> 0:32:26.080 winds up being a curl route and he's there with 0:32:26.200 --> 0:32:28.680 basketball type of defending the low post position like you're 0:32:28.680 --> 0:32:30.360 not gonna get this access on this pass down to 0:32:30.400 --> 0:32:31.960 the post. You're gonna have to go over the top 0:32:32.040 --> 0:32:33.160 or swing it and try to get this thing in 0:32:33.160 --> 0:32:35.800 their eats. It's impressive. And the same deal with Byron Jones. 0:32:35.960 --> 0:32:38.320 There's a field side rep against the one the furthest 0:32:38.320 --> 0:32:41.200 out receiver with no safety help. He stays mirrored on 0:32:41.240 --> 0:32:43.800 an outside release and then beats Gage who tries to 0:32:43.840 --> 0:32:45.800 come back and cross face and get to the ball 0:32:45.880 --> 0:32:47.880 before he can or before the ball can even be 0:32:47.920 --> 0:32:50.520 thrown because it's taken away. There's just so much put 0:32:50.560 --> 0:32:52.239 on those guys as plates and they can beat their 0:32:52.240 --> 0:32:55.600 asses off every week. Jason mccordy had fantastic technique I 0:32:55.600 --> 0:32:57.719 thought in the past break up against Kyle Pitts and 0:32:57.720 --> 0:32:59.360 those are my notes. I mnna start doing this. My 0:32:59.400 --> 0:33:02.000 favorite tapes and the game to a Kisicky Waddle, Rob Hunt, 0:33:02.160 --> 0:33:05.440 Christian Wilkins, Ray Kwon Davis, Emmanuel Ogba, Xavien Howard, and 0:33:05.520 --> 0:33:07.840 Javon Holland. How about some Pro Football Focus metrics here? 0:33:07.960 --> 0:33:10.520 Long podcast on this Tuesday took a lot of notes here. 0:33:11.200 --> 0:33:14.200 Interesting metric from Ben Baldwin the Computer Cowboy on Twitter. 0:33:14.600 --> 0:33:16.400 It takes a look at sack rate compared to a 0:33:16.440 --> 0:33:19.320 team pass blocking grade on Pro Football Focus, and there's 0:33:19.360 --> 0:33:21.360 a cluster at the top of this chart which featured 0:33:21.560 --> 0:33:24.520 features Tongue by Loa Kirk, cousins, Josh Allen, and Matt 0:33:24.560 --> 0:33:27.840 Ryan as the best currently this year at mitigating pressure, 0:33:28.280 --> 0:33:31.120 and that coincides with last season as well, because you 0:33:31.200 --> 0:33:33.920 might recall that he was second and pressure evaded rate 0:33:34.120 --> 0:33:36.920 at twenty four point four percent, behind only Josh Allen 0:33:37.440 --> 0:33:41.120 six point one percent. Lamar Jackson, Kyler Murray and Derek 0:33:41.200 --> 0:33:44.720 Carr were three through five at one percent, nineteen point 0:33:44.720 --> 0:33:48.040 four percent, nineteen point one percent. So continues to mitigate 0:33:48.080 --> 0:33:50.520 pressure some more advanced to a stats he was one 0:33:50.600 --> 0:33:52.720 for one throwing the ball twenty plus yards for twenty 0:33:52.720 --> 0:33:55.120 seven yards. We talked about Atlanta playing lots to cover 0:33:55.200 --> 0:33:57.880 two and cover three deep cloud coverage UH in this 0:33:57.920 --> 0:34:00.600 game an average depth of target just six point three yards. 0:34:00.600 --> 0:34:02.880 It was eight point nine coming and I think in 0:34:02.920 --> 0:34:05.400 the ten to nineteen yard range. Eleven for fourteen one 0:34:05.800 --> 0:34:08.680 and thirty two passing yards, two touchdowns and an interception. 0:34:08.960 --> 0:34:11.759 Against the Blitz, he was six for eight forty five yards. 0:34:11.800 --> 0:34:15.160 Against pressure, he was eight for ten eighty six yards 0:34:15.200 --> 0:34:18.400 and the interception twelve pressures and just one sack in 0:34:18.400 --> 0:34:20.160 this game. I thought the line was very very good 0:34:20.280 --> 0:34:22.040 in this one their best game of the season, and 0:34:22.080 --> 0:34:24.120 the one sack was just late eyes to react to 0:34:24.120 --> 0:34:26.279 a nice pressure package there from DPS, like he's gonna 0:34:26.320 --> 0:34:27.960 cook you up. He's gonna have different looks for you. 0:34:28.120 --> 0:34:30.279 He'll get you once or twice. Just once in this game. 0:34:30.480 --> 0:34:32.480 It killed a drive, But all things considered, I think 0:34:32.480 --> 0:34:34.359 it's a good day from your offensive line to really 0:34:34.400 --> 0:34:38.759 only have one drive negatively impacted by the pass rush. Well, 0:34:38.800 --> 0:34:40.279 I guess it was two because of the pick as well. 0:34:40.280 --> 0:34:44.320 But Leah Mikenberg two pressures, no hits, Austin Jackson four pressures, 0:34:44.320 --> 0:34:47.759 one hit, Austin Rider two pressures, no hits, Rob Hunt 0:34:47.840 --> 0:34:51.040 three pressures, it was a sack. Jesse Davis one pressure, 0:34:51.160 --> 0:34:54.680 it was a hit. Average yards after contact is rushers 0:34:54.719 --> 0:34:57.480 to a three point to five yards Malcolm Brown three 0:34:57.520 --> 0:35:00.600 yards average miles Gascon two point to some on Achmed 0:35:00.680 --> 0:35:03.640 one point seven yards per route run and yards per 0:35:03.640 --> 0:35:06.560 target savon Akmed average two point three six yards per 0:35:06.600 --> 0:35:09.680 route run, Waddle two point two four, Gasicki two point 0:35:09.680 --> 0:35:12.480 two four, and Smythe two point oh six as far 0:35:12.520 --> 0:35:15.600 as yards per target savon average thirteen yards per pass target, 0:35:15.840 --> 0:35:19.000 Waddle ten point for Gasicki ten point six, and Smith 0:35:19.120 --> 0:35:20.799 nine point two five. So those were your four most 0:35:20.800 --> 0:35:24.319 productive guys in the passing game. Defensively pressures, Agba had 0:35:24.400 --> 0:35:27.719 six continues to do it, Man, Wilkins and e Ra 0:35:27.960 --> 0:35:30.759 both had three, Van Ginkel and Butler both had two, 0:35:30.760 --> 0:35:33.160 and five players had one. One of those five players 0:35:33.160 --> 0:35:36.560 was Javon Holland. Sack run stops Seeler, Wilkins, and Van 0:35:36.640 --> 0:35:39.920 Ginkle all had three. Holland, Roberts and Eric Rowe had 0:35:39.920 --> 0:35:43.280 two apiece, and Riley and Ogba both had one. Xaviing 0:35:43.320 --> 0:35:45.600 Howard was targeted eight times and allowed one catch for 0:35:45.640 --> 0:35:48.839 twenty eight yards to one point or a two point 0:35:48.840 --> 0:35:51.440 one pass aready against on him Byron Jones forty three 0:35:51.480 --> 0:35:53.839 yards on six targets. Javon Holland got hit for three 0:35:53.840 --> 0:35:56.880 for three seventy one yards and the long Russell Gage touchdown. 0:35:56.960 --> 0:35:59.719 A couple of season long stats here. Ogba's fourteenth among 0:35:59.840 --> 0:36:03.319 edge defenders with twenty seven pressures. Wilkins the second and 0:36:03.400 --> 0:36:05.799 run stops that means tackles within two yards of the line. 0:36:05.920 --> 0:36:09.400 Among interior defensive line with twenty four and Zack Steelers 0:36:10.120 --> 0:36:13.200 with fifteen. Some next Gen stats two was eleven point 0:36:13.280 --> 0:36:16.560 nine percent. Completion over expected rate was the third best 0:36:16.600 --> 0:36:18.440 in the league this weekend, and it gives his season 0:36:18.480 --> 0:36:21.200 total a surge up to plus two percent, which is 0:36:21.200 --> 0:36:24.560 eleventh in the National Football League. Mayfield his tenth at 0:36:24.600 --> 0:36:27.919 two point five. Lamar Jackson is twelfth at one point eight. 0:36:28.160 --> 0:36:30.359 His time to throw two point five seconds is third 0:36:30.440 --> 0:36:32.600 quick as in the NFL Big Ben and Bradier one 0:36:32.600 --> 0:36:35.560 and two. His seventeen point eight percent aggressive rate on 0:36:35.640 --> 0:36:38.920 next Gen is seventh highest in the National Football League. 0:36:39.160 --> 0:36:42.680 And then rush yards over expected per rush Miles Gascon 0:36:42.760 --> 0:36:45.040 negative point one two yards. It's a little bit below 0:36:45.080 --> 0:36:47.520 the middle of the pack. Miles Sanders mark Ingram are 0:36:47.520 --> 0:36:50.080 some of the guys around him. Nobody else qualifies on 0:36:50.120 --> 0:36:53.440 the Dolphins right now separation numbers, Jalen Waddle averages four 0:36:53.520 --> 0:36:56.480 yards per route that's tenth in the NFL, Mike Kasicki 0:36:56.560 --> 0:36:59.560 two point eight, and nobody else qualifies. Kausiki gets a 0:36:59.600 --> 0:37:02.959 seven point one yard average cushion and Waddle six point nine. 0:37:03.200 --> 0:37:06.839 That's twelve and thirteenth, respectively. Kassicks a dot is nine 0:37:06.880 --> 0:37:10.920 point one, Waddle is five point to ninth fewest among qualifiers. 0:37:10.960 --> 0:37:14.560 Surrounding names, They're Cole Beasley, Jamison Crowder, John new Smith, 0:37:15.520 --> 0:37:18.080 snap counts, the quarterback in the offensive line all played 0:37:18.120 --> 0:37:21.560 seventy three snaps. Wire to wire receiver Waddle sixty one, 0:37:21.680 --> 0:37:25.880 Holland's thirty nine, Preston Williams played thirty, Isaiah Ford played nineteen, 0:37:25.880 --> 0:37:29.680 Albert Wilson played three. Mike Gasicki played sixty snaps two 0:37:30.120 --> 0:37:31.759 A nice bump there. Get him out there as much 0:37:31.800 --> 0:37:35.560 as you possibly can. Shaheen fifty one snaps. Durham Smith nine, 0:37:35.760 --> 0:37:39.480 Miles Gaskin played forty six snaps, Savon akmed twenty two, 0:37:39.480 --> 0:37:42.879 and Malcolm Brown five. On defense, Wilkins played forty three 0:37:42.920 --> 0:37:45.680 snaps at sixty percent of the total. Ray Kuan Davis 0:37:45.680 --> 0:37:49.400 played thirty three, Adam Butler thirty one, Zack Healer twenty six. 0:37:49.680 --> 0:37:51.719 Off the edge, Van Ginkle leads the way this week 0:37:51.760 --> 0:37:55.240 with forty eight snaps. Ogbad played forty two, then Scarlet eighteen. 0:37:55.480 --> 0:37:58.520 Jalen Phillips just fifteen snaps in this game at linebacker. 0:37:58.600 --> 0:38:02.560 Sam maguav And fifty three snaps of the total. Landon 0:38:02.640 --> 0:38:06.160 Roberts played forty four, Baker ten, Riley six at cornerback, 0:38:06.200 --> 0:38:08.600 Byron and X both put every snap, all sixty three 0:38:08.600 --> 0:38:11.920 of them. Needham played twenty four. Holland at safety played 0:38:11.920 --> 0:38:14.959 every snap all sixty three, Row forty four, Brandon Jones 0:38:15.040 --> 0:38:18.440 thirty nine, Jason mccordy tent nine. Let's finish up with 0:38:18.480 --> 0:38:22.000 scanned the social here talking about offensive line improvement. Talked 0:38:22.000 --> 0:38:23.960 about a little bit last week. I thought some of 0:38:24.000 --> 0:38:27.160 those pressures that didn't result in the sacks obviously were 0:38:27.160 --> 0:38:29.120 there were some work of two a tongue by lower 0:38:29.120 --> 0:38:31.120 to get out of the pressure. Quarterbacks and offensive line 0:38:31.120 --> 0:38:33.799 at all kind of goes in terms together in terms 0:38:33.840 --> 0:38:36.920 of who's at fault for pressures and sacks. But just 0:38:36.960 --> 0:38:39.799 twelve pressures allowed this Sunday a nice positive step in 0:38:39.800 --> 0:38:42.640 the right direction and what is slowly becoming a trend 0:38:42.640 --> 0:38:45.560 in that right direction. They passed off pretty well, not 0:38:45.680 --> 0:38:48.440 the guards pulled very well, got they slid protection and 0:38:48.480 --> 0:38:50.400 communicated well. I thought Liam had his best game as 0:38:50.400 --> 0:38:51.840 a pro. I thought was the best game of the 0:38:51.880 --> 0:38:54.200 year for both Hunt and Davis, and I thought Ryder 0:38:54.239 --> 0:38:57.360 filled in very admirably at center, and so on that thought, 0:38:57.400 --> 0:39:01.240 it has me thinking about develop admit and things coaches 0:39:01.320 --> 0:39:03.960 at about Tah and his development on Monday, and how 0:39:03.960 --> 0:39:06.800 one player's development has nothing to do with someone else's development, 0:39:06.800 --> 0:39:09.520 how it's not linear, how it's not overnight. But if 0:39:09.520 --> 0:39:11.560 they can continue this trend for the next ten games, 0:39:11.560 --> 0:39:13.319 that would be a huge boon to give you some 0:39:13.360 --> 0:39:17.080 possible answers. On the offensive line, I think Christian Wilkins, 0:39:17.120 --> 0:39:19.560 who has always been a good player from day one, 0:39:19.840 --> 0:39:22.239 but the way he's putting it all together in year three, 0:39:22.719 --> 0:39:24.319 I think he's a good example of that of the 0:39:24.360 --> 0:39:26.719 development that kind of comes along with the player's progression. 0:39:26.719 --> 0:39:29.960 And we saw Mike GETSICKI have very little productions rookie season, 0:39:30.040 --> 0:39:32.759 then something clicked and he's gotten better every year since then. 0:39:33.120 --> 0:39:36.720 Nick need Um, I mean, we've done this before, guys Exaviing, Howard, Miles, Gaskin, 0:39:36.760 --> 0:39:39.360 DeVante Parker, examples all over the place. And when you 0:39:39.360 --> 0:39:42.200 look at a guy like Mike, guy like X and 0:39:42.200 --> 0:39:44.400 you see how it really clicks for them in year two, 0:39:44.440 --> 0:39:46.359 in the second half of the season, like twenty five 0:39:46.400 --> 0:39:48.800 games into their career, it makes me think about Robert 0:39:48.840 --> 0:39:51.640 Hunt makes you think about Austin Jackson in a little 0:39:51.640 --> 0:39:54.640 bit being the first half of year two, about Liam 0:39:54.680 --> 0:39:57.200 Eichenberg being the first half of his rookie season, about 0:39:57.320 --> 0:40:00.160 Deets Michael Dieter when he gets back here being on 0:40:00.200 --> 0:40:02.520 a similar timeline in terms of playing time in this 0:40:02.680 --> 0:40:06.560 third season. Look, I thought Halloween was gonna be a 0:40:06.640 --> 0:40:08.600 game for first place in the division when the schedule 0:40:08.640 --> 0:40:11.279 came out, and obviously in training camp as well. And 0:40:11.320 --> 0:40:13.040 this season it's not gone the way many of us 0:40:13.040 --> 0:40:15.480 had wanted it to or expected it too. But that's 0:40:15.480 --> 0:40:17.720 what has me excited to watch every game down the stretch. 0:40:17.800 --> 0:40:20.839 Young players attempting to show their development in the way 0:40:21.120 --> 0:40:23.880 many of the mainstayer players on this roster did early 0:40:24.200 --> 0:40:26.040 in their careers as well.
