0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:04.080
<v Speaker 1>To on the move, Dylan Deep Speedless Hell.

0:00:05.720 --> 0:00:10.400
<v Speaker 2>From the Baptist Health Studios inside the Baptist Health Training Complex.

0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:18.400
<v Speaker 1>This is Drivetime with Travis Wingfield. He's got my avns

0:00:18.440 --> 0:00:19.440
<v Speaker 1>in the playoffs.

0:00:27.840 --> 0:00:31.080
<v Speaker 2>What is up, Dolph Fans? And welcome to the Draft

0:00:31.080 --> 0:00:34.040
<v Speaker 2>Time Podcast. I am your host, Travis Wingfield. And on

0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:36.360
<v Speaker 2>today's show, we're gonna get into the weeds here a

0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:39.159
<v Speaker 2>little bit, and I'm gonna tell you some thoughts that

0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:42.760
<v Speaker 2>percolated throughout the course of a forty eight hour weekend

0:00:43.000 --> 0:00:46.160
<v Speaker 2>where I tried my best to distract myself all weekend long.

0:00:46.320 --> 0:00:47.159
<v Speaker 1>We'll discuss that.

0:00:47.240 --> 0:00:49.880
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna discuss trends of the run game across the

0:00:49.960 --> 0:00:53.120
<v Speaker 2>league and how that could suit Skyler Thompson's skill set.

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:55.680
<v Speaker 2>And we'll also just kind of discuss where we are today.

0:00:55.680 --> 0:00:57.880
<v Speaker 2>That's kind of the general topic of the podcast. From

0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:01.200
<v Speaker 2>the Baptist Health Studios inside the Baptis Health Training Complex.

0:01:01.240 --> 0:01:01.800
<v Speaker 1>This is.

0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:09.559
<v Speaker 2>The Draft Time Podcast. So I have some Dolphins fan

0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:12.600
<v Speaker 2>friends faithful from back home. In fact, one of my

0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:16.759
<v Speaker 2>best buddies moved back from Seattle down to Florida, and

0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:21.560
<v Speaker 2>we discuss life as a Dolphins fan. This game, this team,

0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Dolphins fans a little bit of everything as well as

0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:29.959
<v Speaker 2>our lives. And I told him on Wednesday or Thursday

0:01:29.959 --> 0:01:33.240
<v Speaker 2>before the Bills game, after doing all my study and

0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:37.120
<v Speaker 2>looking at their defense and all the pieces that were down,

0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:39.039
<v Speaker 2>and I think I put up my keys too, like

0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:41.720
<v Speaker 2>we were. This thing had been built this offseason to

0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:46.520
<v Speaker 2>beat the Buffalo Bills. And after considering all of those factors,

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:48.440
<v Speaker 2>I text him and I said, you know what, but

0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:52.360
<v Speaker 2>if the Dolphins don't like move the ball consistently, I'm

0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:56.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna heal turn on these guys because with the caveat that,

0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:58.800
<v Speaker 2>I do believe that there are reinforcements coming that could

0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:00.480
<v Speaker 2>be the next thing that kind of got some over

0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:05.200
<v Speaker 2>that hump. But they did exactly what I said I

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Speaker 2>didn't want them to do in order for me to

0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:09.440
<v Speaker 2>stay on board with like, oh, this is an all

0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:11.440
<v Speaker 2>time historic offense, which you know it had been the

0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:13.480
<v Speaker 2>last couple of years they were trading in that direction,

0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:17.280
<v Speaker 2>and I thought that all the added skill pieces and

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:19.079
<v Speaker 2>the third year in the system, all that stuff, I

0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:21.360
<v Speaker 2>thought it was going to be just another step in

0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:26.320
<v Speaker 2>the right direction for the Dolphins offense. Not only is

0:02:26.360 --> 0:02:31.919
<v Speaker 2>there a heel turn with that in mind. I think

0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:38.919
<v Speaker 2>the Dolphins broke me like I had to actively avoid

0:02:39.280 --> 0:02:42.799
<v Speaker 2>football matters and Twitter. I didn't delete the app, but

0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:48.000
<v Speaker 2>I might as well have over the weekend because I've

0:02:48.040 --> 0:02:50.240
<v Speaker 2>been thinking about this, that same friend that I text with,

0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:54.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, when Tua got his extension and last year happened,

0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:57.560
<v Speaker 2>you know all the results we didn't get, you still

0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:02.360
<v Speaker 2>were this considerable part of the NFL conversation. Every single week.

0:03:02.760 --> 0:03:05.640
<v Speaker 2>You were mentioned in power rankings, you were mentioned in

0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:08.240
<v Speaker 2>big matchups of the weekend. That's the luxury of being

0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:11.880
<v Speaker 2>or you know, I guess the primetime games never go

0:03:11.960 --> 0:03:15.280
<v Speaker 2>our way, but you get those because you're good in

0:03:15.520 --> 0:03:18.240
<v Speaker 2>every other game and you earn those through being a

0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:20.920
<v Speaker 2>good football team. And that's who the Dolphins had become

0:03:21.000 --> 0:03:23.600
<v Speaker 2>and established themselves over the last couple of years. And

0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:27.239
<v Speaker 2>I'm not riding the obituary today. I just think it's

0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:30.280
<v Speaker 2>worth putting our thoughts out there because I know, just

0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:35.720
<v Speaker 2>like every single person listening to this podcast today, you're

0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:40.560
<v Speaker 2>in a tough spot. You are really down about the

0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:44.520
<v Speaker 2>thing that has the potential to bring you the most

0:03:44.600 --> 0:03:47.080
<v Speaker 2>joy in your life outside of your children or your

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:52.640
<v Speaker 2>family or you know whatever other major pillars in your life.

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:55.000
<v Speaker 2>You may have if it is the Dolphins, that probably

0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:57.560
<v Speaker 2>means you're nineteen years old like I was once upon

0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:00.360
<v Speaker 2>time and had no responsibility outside of a part time

0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:03.080
<v Speaker 2>job and try to figure away through junior college and

0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:09.800
<v Speaker 2>just love football. But I cannot fathom right now going

0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:15.880
<v Speaker 2>back to the era of twenty fifteen or twenty eighteen,

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:20.200
<v Speaker 2>or two thousand and nine or two thousand and five

0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:24.760
<v Speaker 2>and this team that maybe they can get nine wins

0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:26.880
<v Speaker 2>and get into the playoffs and then be two touchdown

0:04:26.960 --> 0:04:30.680
<v Speaker 2>underdogs in Foxboro and get slacked by the Patriots. Maybe

0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:35.080
<v Speaker 2>they can do that. Nah, I just have no interest

0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:39.840
<v Speaker 2>in that thought, that conversation to have finally uncovered a

0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:43.480
<v Speaker 2>true franchise quarterback, someone that moves the needle, someone that

0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:46.240
<v Speaker 2>get you excited to go to the ballpark, someone that

0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:49.000
<v Speaker 2>you know that when you're down by twenty one points

0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:50.920
<v Speaker 2>in the fourth quarter at Baltimore, you can come back

0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:53.320
<v Speaker 2>and win that game. When you need a touchdown on

0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 2>back to back drives in Los Angeles in the opener,

0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:57.000
<v Speaker 2>you can come back and you can win that game.

0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:01.960
<v Speaker 2>To to lose that you know, I don't know what's

0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:04.960
<v Speaker 2>gonna happen quite frankly, you know, to put the news

0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:08.000
<v Speaker 2>out there that he doesn't intend to retire. That came

0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:13.400
<v Speaker 2>out Sunday morning, But like to live in that gray

0:05:13.480 --> 0:05:17.479
<v Speaker 2>area forever now with every single hit and I just

0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:19.400
<v Speaker 2>I just I thought I thought it was over because

0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:21.839
<v Speaker 2>of last season, the way he protected himself, the fact

0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:23.919
<v Speaker 2>that he endured an NFL season and we see we

0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:26.040
<v Speaker 2>see guys take these hits all the time, and guys

0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.719
<v Speaker 2>get hurt, guys get concussions, guys get knocked out of games.

0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:33.479
<v Speaker 2>It just felt like different that time, right, And so

0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:37.400
<v Speaker 2>I just keep thinking about where we were and where

0:05:37.440 --> 0:05:40.840
<v Speaker 2>we have, where we've come from, where we are and

0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 2>where we're going.

0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:43.480
<v Speaker 1>And for me, like.

0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:48.400
<v Speaker 2>This weekend, I wanted to I was on the beat

0:05:48.400 --> 0:05:50.720
<v Speaker 2>at the beach with my family on Saturday morning, had

0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:53.640
<v Speaker 2>a great day, went to Flannagan's, got lunch with the kiddos,

0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:57.400
<v Speaker 2>my wife, watched the Apple Cup. Was completely distracted for

0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 2>like eight hours and it was marvelous. But then you know,

0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:02.240
<v Speaker 2>everyone goes to bed and you're with your thoughts and

0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:05.279
<v Speaker 2>you're like, damn, I gotta go do content on this

0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:07.520
<v Speaker 2>team that I'm just like kind of broken up with.

0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:10.240
<v Speaker 1>Over the weekend, and.

0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:14.359
<v Speaker 2>I just keep thinking about where I started this job,

0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:18.040
<v Speaker 2>and you know, twenty nineteen was probably like the most

0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:22.159
<v Speaker 2>zeal I had for this profession. When I pledged to

0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:24.719
<v Speaker 2>every Dolphins fan Lockdown Dolphins, and I was going to

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:26.839
<v Speaker 2>take you through what's going to be a tough season

0:06:26.839 --> 0:06:31.359
<v Speaker 2>from a wins lost perspective, from matchups getting destroyed like

0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:33.440
<v Speaker 2>nine times out of ten, But I was always going

0:06:33.480 --> 0:06:35.880
<v Speaker 2>to find that tenth one where Devon Godshot got a

0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:38.640
<v Speaker 2>good run stop, or Eric Rowe showed us that he

0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 2>could be a potential safety of the future or whatever

0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:45.560
<v Speaker 2>whatever the hell it was. And watching all the college

0:06:45.560 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 2>prospects that year, and watching all the quarterbacks in college

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:51.680
<v Speaker 2>and deciphering Tua and Burrow and Herbert and Jordan Love

0:06:51.800 --> 0:06:54.320
<v Speaker 2>and all these quarterbacks that were so much fun to watch,

0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:56.120
<v Speaker 2>and all these prospects and all these draft picks we had,

0:06:56.160 --> 0:06:58.120
<v Speaker 2>and we were building, We're building, We're building. They have

0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:02.760
<v Speaker 2>this multiple war chest of draft picks that even if

0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:04.919
<v Speaker 2>they bat four hundred in the drafts, they're gonna be

0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 2>a great team because they're gonna get valuable resources at

0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.720
<v Speaker 2>low cost and they have all these free agent dollars

0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:11.040
<v Speaker 2>and they can do it. Throughout the course of two

0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:14.000
<v Speaker 2>oswickiy contract and we're gonna build and then the head

0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:17.360
<v Speaker 2>coach turned out to be a total loser. All right,

0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:20.080
<v Speaker 2>we'll reset, go back and try it again. We find

0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:24.240
<v Speaker 2>this guy, Mike McDaniel. Oh my goodness, record pacing offense

0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:27.080
<v Speaker 2>top ten offenses back to back year's number one offense.

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:31.320
<v Speaker 2>I've been waiting twenty five years for this, since I

0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:37.320
<v Speaker 2>had peaches and NFL team themed pencils doing fucking freaking

0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:41.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, learn how to write cursive.

0:07:43.800 --> 0:07:47.640
<v Speaker 1>Been waiting for that. And to think.

0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:53.120
<v Speaker 2>That my fifteen year projection of well, if the Dolphins

0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:55.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, to and McDaniel going to be here for

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.200
<v Speaker 2>fifteen years, they'll probably get a trophy. Over that time,

0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:00.680
<v Speaker 2>we'll get the culmination of Dolphins fandom is going to

0:08:00.760 --> 0:08:04.920
<v Speaker 2>be great. But when I turn fifty years old and

0:08:05.040 --> 0:08:06.960
<v Speaker 2>my kids are in high school or whatever, they'll be

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:11.440
<v Speaker 2>at that point close to it, and I've got all

0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:14.480
<v Speaker 2>these Dolphins accolades, and my career is what it is

0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:17.160
<v Speaker 2>at that point, probably not going to really care that much, right,

0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:19.160
<v Speaker 2>you probably check out at that point. It's like how

0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:21.720
<v Speaker 2>I imagine a Patriots fan might feel today, Like did

0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:24.440
<v Speaker 2>they really care? Anymore like they won six championships. Is

0:08:24.760 --> 0:08:27.000
<v Speaker 2>it ever going to get better than that? I don't know,

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:33.520
<v Speaker 2>existential crisis, ma'm because throughout that rebuild and throughout the

0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:37.240
<v Speaker 2>picks and the free agency signings and the pivot to

0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:40.839
<v Speaker 2>the new coach and the options and the ability to

0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:42.679
<v Speaker 2>get out of contracts and the good contracts and the

0:08:42.679 --> 0:08:44.960
<v Speaker 2>way they structure things and just continue to build this

0:08:45.040 --> 0:08:47.880
<v Speaker 2>thing forward to what I still feel is a really

0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:51.760
<v Speaker 2>good football team with a massive question hanging over its head.

0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:56.040
<v Speaker 2>And just look at we're six and a half point

0:08:56.040 --> 0:09:00.199
<v Speaker 2>dogs of the Seahawks. You know, like, I don't I

0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:02.400
<v Speaker 2>don't want to go back to watching like I remember

0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:04.559
<v Speaker 2>last year watching this like the Saints and Panthers in

0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:06.840
<v Speaker 2>Week two and the Saints just couldn't move the ball

0:09:06.960 --> 0:09:09.280
<v Speaker 2>and that was the whole entire year for them, And

0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:11.200
<v Speaker 2>I was just like, I can't go back to watching

0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:13.880
<v Speaker 2>this stuff, dude, I can't go back to watching Chad,

0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Henny John Beck, Cleo Lemon say, I mean, you know

0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:19.240
<v Speaker 2>the names.

0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:21.760
<v Speaker 1>I just didn't want to do it, ma'am.

0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:25.040
<v Speaker 2>And so I keep like tying my life to where

0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:27.400
<v Speaker 2>the Dolphins are right now and my job where in

0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:30.880
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty. They began this whole thing right really a

0:09:30.960 --> 0:09:33.240
<v Speaker 2>twenty nineteen in Arnest, but in twenty twenty and I

0:09:33.320 --> 0:09:35.000
<v Speaker 2>grew and I developed, and I got to know the

0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:37.160
<v Speaker 2>players and the picks and the coaches and all along

0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:39.160
<v Speaker 2>with it, and we like did it.

0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:39.640
<v Speaker 1>We made it.

0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:42.040
<v Speaker 2>We were a team that was even if the results

0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:44.280
<v Speaker 2>weren't what you wanted the last couple of years in

0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:46.760
<v Speaker 2>the postseason, which they none of us would say they were,

0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:51.520
<v Speaker 2>at least you were always part of the conversation. You

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:54.520
<v Speaker 2>were always one of those teams that was, oh, well

0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:56.280
<v Speaker 2>the Dolphins are you know that's a team in the

0:09:56.320 --> 0:09:58.040
<v Speaker 2>AFC that I could see that's a dark horse team.

0:09:58.120 --> 0:10:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Or you know, Lewis Riddick last year in Week fourteens,

0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:01.520
<v Speaker 2>and this is a team that's going to really surprise

0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:05.520
<v Speaker 2>look down Like being part of those conversations made everything

0:10:05.559 --> 0:10:07.640
<v Speaker 2>else more fun because all the content was so much

0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:08.400
<v Speaker 2>more fun to watch.

0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:10.000
<v Speaker 1>The games were obviously great.

0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:12.320
<v Speaker 2>You could root against other teams with much more rooting

0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:14.360
<v Speaker 2>interest at the top of the league, opposes like, oh,

0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:16.319
<v Speaker 2>I hope the seven and six Chargers loose and we

0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:18.439
<v Speaker 2>can move into a tiebreaker for the eighth steed in

0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:20.719
<v Speaker 2>the AFC, and I'm not saying the Dolphins are done

0:10:20.760 --> 0:10:22.679
<v Speaker 2>by any stretch of the imagination, but these are all

0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:25.600
<v Speaker 2>the thoughts that came across the mind over the weekend.

0:10:26.400 --> 0:10:28.960
<v Speaker 2>Just I don't I don't know when the quarterback comes back,

0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:32.320
<v Speaker 2>but when he if he's not, I don't know how

0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:34.280
<v Speaker 2>I can pick this team to win football games because

0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:39.800
<v Speaker 2>I just don't see it, And so all these thoughts

0:10:39.840 --> 0:10:41.880
<v Speaker 2>have gone through the head. I've thought about the prospects,

0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:45.960
<v Speaker 2>I thought about the veterans, the trade possibilities. Something to

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:49.160
<v Speaker 2>put a band aid over the gaping wound in Dolphins

0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:53.120
<v Speaker 2>fans hearts right now, I think was what from my perspective,

0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:55.640
<v Speaker 2>the weekend was all about trying to find and the

0:10:55.640 --> 0:10:57.520
<v Speaker 2>more I tried to find it, the more I found

0:10:57.559 --> 0:11:00.000
<v Speaker 2>that I just wanted to be in the Atlantic Ocean

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.680
<v Speaker 2>with my two year old who was having an absolute blast.

0:11:03.679 --> 0:11:05.880
<v Speaker 1>So I didn't script this.

0:11:06.040 --> 0:11:07.439
<v Speaker 2>I just wanted to get on the mic and talk

0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:11.320
<v Speaker 2>about it, and it just felt like a good chance

0:11:11.360 --> 0:11:13.600
<v Speaker 2>to kind of connect with you all about the morning

0:11:13.679 --> 0:11:15.600
<v Speaker 2>process that it kind of still feels like we're in

0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:18.200
<v Speaker 2>I saw someone tweeted at me that they weren't going

0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:20.439
<v Speaker 2>to be checking out any content this week, and I'm like, yeah, dude,

0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:21.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't blame you.

0:11:21.960 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 1>How I wouldn't do it either. You must excuse me.

0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I've grown quite aware, you know.

0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:35.400
<v Speaker 2>I my wife's grandparents, her great grandparents called no her grandparents,

0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:39.040
<v Speaker 2>so my kid's great grandparents, and they were like, how's Travis,

0:11:39.080 --> 0:11:40.840
<v Speaker 2>And they were like asking about me and the job,

0:11:40.880 --> 0:11:43.080
<v Speaker 2>and they watch all my YouTube stuff, and I'm just like, I.

0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:44.360
<v Speaker 1>Don't I don't want to do it.

0:11:44.400 --> 0:11:46.840
<v Speaker 2>Guys, Like, I appreciate the call, it's good to see y'all,

0:11:46.880 --> 0:11:49.080
<v Speaker 2>but I don't want to talk about the Dolphins right now.

0:11:52.720 --> 0:11:54.920
<v Speaker 2>And I think the most sobering part about that is

0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:58.240
<v Speaker 2>this was before the Rappaport thing came out Sunday, when

0:11:58.240 --> 0:12:02.160
<v Speaker 2>I was like, we're gonna see two again. I just

0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:08.680
<v Speaker 2>can't really fathom going back and doing it all over

0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:13.120
<v Speaker 2>again without any trophies or any division titles or any

0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:16.040
<v Speaker 2>playoff wins to show for this. I just can't imagine

0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:18.000
<v Speaker 2>getting gung ho about it. I'm sure I'll get there.

0:12:18.440 --> 0:12:20.520
<v Speaker 2>You know, every year we say I'm done buying any

0:12:20.520 --> 0:12:21.800
<v Speaker 2>of this team. I'm not going to predict them to

0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:24.400
<v Speaker 2>win these games until they and then the year comes around,

0:12:24.480 --> 0:12:28.319
<v Speaker 2>you're like freaking awquall painted face paint.

0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:28.959
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:32.440
<v Speaker 2>It's just like I just wanted to come on the

0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:35.320
<v Speaker 2>mic and drop some sorrow on you guys because I

0:12:35.360 --> 0:12:37.480
<v Speaker 2>need to get it out myself, and.

0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:40.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. We'll see, we'll see.

0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:44.120
<v Speaker 2>I also had this note written down about you get

0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:47.400
<v Speaker 2>did you guys realize? And this will get some backlash

0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:49.480
<v Speaker 2>from that, you know, One game at a time, folks.

0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:52.439
<v Speaker 2>The bills have ended like the last five seasons for

0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:55.080
<v Speaker 2>the Dolphins, and I'm not saying this season's over, but

0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:59.400
<v Speaker 2>it kind of feels like it if depending on when

0:12:59.520 --> 0:13:02.199
<v Speaker 2>TWA comes back, right, So so many caveats to this,

0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:05.920
<v Speaker 2>But in twenty twenty elimination game Week seventeen, an absolute

0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:09.320
<v Speaker 2>beat down in Buffalo embarrassing fashion right literally end of

0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:12.960
<v Speaker 2>the season. Twenty twenty one broke tw was Ribs in

0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Week two and gave Brian floor As the opportunity to

0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:19.200
<v Speaker 2>sit him for longer than he should have sat. And

0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:21.560
<v Speaker 2>that effectively made you one in seven and then two

0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:23.480
<v Speaker 2>it comes back in and you win eight games, seven

0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:26.360
<v Speaker 2>games in a row. Big surprise flow, right, And that

0:13:26.480 --> 0:13:28.520
<v Speaker 2>season was ended right there because of the Buffalo Bills

0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:30.920
<v Speaker 2>injury to two in week number two. This is the

0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:32.360
<v Speaker 2>one year you can argue it as the Titans in

0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:34.160
<v Speaker 2>Week seventeen that year.

0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:35.400
<v Speaker 1>I digress.

0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:37.040
<v Speaker 2>For the point of this argument, We're gonna call it

0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:39.840
<v Speaker 2>to Buffalo Bills in week two in twenty twenty two.

0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:43.680
<v Speaker 2>Literally beat you in the playoffs in twenty twenty three

0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:49.160
<v Speaker 2>because you lost to Buffalo twice. Really, but in Week

0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:51.160
<v Speaker 2>eight team you had to go play a game that

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:53.160
<v Speaker 2>you were never gonna win where it was negative twenty

0:13:53.200 --> 0:13:56.680
<v Speaker 2>five degrees in Kansas City. Right, So Buffalo, once again,

0:13:56.720 --> 0:13:59.160
<v Speaker 2>thank you. We'll see you a good next year. Twenty

0:13:59.200 --> 0:14:03.200
<v Speaker 2>twenty four. Number two, our quarterback that has gotten over

0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:06.559
<v Speaker 2>all the ailments and woes of his career and bad

0:14:06.600 --> 0:14:12.920
<v Speaker 2>coaching and injuries and all these things. Week two goes

0:14:13.120 --> 0:14:15.600
<v Speaker 2>right back to the issue that made twenty twenty two

0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.480
<v Speaker 2>a miserable roller coaster ride of a season with all

0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:21.440
<v Speaker 2>the ups and downs following the health of the quarterback.

0:14:21.560 --> 0:14:25.480
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, it's basically a Buffalo Bills problem. In fact,

0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:28.560
<v Speaker 2>if you go to I think Warren Sharp tweeted it

0:14:28.680 --> 0:14:30.720
<v Speaker 2>to my bookmarks, just give me a second, I'm gonna

0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:36.240
<v Speaker 2>find it. Of course, now it's gone, I can't find it. Essentially,

0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:39.720
<v Speaker 2>the Dolphins have like a five ninety winning percentage against

0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:41.600
<v Speaker 2>the rest of the NFL, but are one and eleven

0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:44.000
<v Speaker 2>against the Bills over the last twelve games over that

0:14:44.040 --> 0:14:47.520
<v Speaker 2>same spans, Like they're basically a top five team against

0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:50.440
<v Speaker 2>everybody else, but they cannot beat the Buffalo Bills. And

0:14:50.480 --> 0:14:52.200
<v Speaker 2>how sad is that that it comes off the heels

0:14:52.200 --> 0:14:55.000
<v Speaker 2>of Tom Brady literally handing over the keys in twenty

0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:57.760
<v Speaker 2>nineteen is last year and Josh Allen's breakout year comes

0:14:57.800 --> 0:15:03.840
<v Speaker 2>in twenty twenty, Like, does it ever get better? No? God, man,

0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:07.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Yeah, the Kugs won the Apple Cup.

0:15:07.200 --> 0:15:08.720
<v Speaker 2>Let's go ahead and take a break. Comeback on the

0:15:08.760 --> 0:15:10.760
<v Speaker 2>other side. I'm gonna tell you about how this trend

0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:13.840
<v Speaker 2>of the running game in the National Football League could

0:15:13.880 --> 0:15:17.600
<v Speaker 2>be the Dolphins path to finding victories without QB one.

0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:20.600
<v Speaker 2>That's Next Draft Time podcast, your host Travis Wingfield, brought

0:15:20.600 --> 0:15:24.760
<v Speaker 2>to you by AutoNation. We are two weeks into a

0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:28.680
<v Speaker 2>brand new NFL season, and we've got a pretty significant

0:15:28.720 --> 0:15:32.960
<v Speaker 2>trend developing across the league and it might coincide with

0:15:33.040 --> 0:15:35.800
<v Speaker 2>how the Dolphins can carve out some paths to victory

0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:38.920
<v Speaker 2>over the coming weeks or for as long as QB

0:15:39.000 --> 0:15:41.720
<v Speaker 2>one is down, and I want to start with this.

0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:45.440
<v Speaker 2>You'll notice this through the life of the NFL. It

0:15:45.560 --> 0:15:49.320
<v Speaker 2>is a league of cycles and trends. Because Dan Marino

0:15:49.480 --> 0:15:52.160
<v Speaker 2>ushered in the era of the long ball, and though

0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:53.720
<v Speaker 2>it took a while for the NFL to catch up

0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:56.440
<v Speaker 2>to that and through various routes of the passing game,

0:15:56.720 --> 0:15:59.640
<v Speaker 2>we eventually did see the spawn of the aerial attack.

0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:02.760
<v Speaker 2>In the nineteen nineties with Jim Kelly and the Buffalo Bills.

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:06.960
<v Speaker 2>We saw Brett farre introduce a new style of quarterback play.

0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:11.560
<v Speaker 2>We saw Warren Moon carry on Dan's approach and legacy

0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:15.280
<v Speaker 2>into the nineties. But then came the bell Cow running

0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:19.760
<v Speaker 2>back em At Smith, Terrell, Davis Ladany, and Tomlinson, Priest Holmes,

0:16:20.280 --> 0:16:23.680
<v Speaker 2>Ricky Williams. For all you youngsters out there, there was

0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:27.360
<v Speaker 2>a time where your perception across the media was tied

0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:30.440
<v Speaker 2>to the quality of your running back and usually paired

0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:33.720
<v Speaker 2>with a stout defense. Look at those early two thousands

0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:37.360
<v Speaker 2>Dolphins teams and how they were built. And when Ricky

0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:40.280
<v Speaker 2>Williams hung it up in two thousand and four, look

0:16:40.280 --> 0:16:44.400
<v Speaker 2>at what happened to a team that had won eleven, nine, eleven,

0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:48.280
<v Speaker 2>and ten games the four years prior four wins, nine wins,

0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:53.560
<v Speaker 2>six wins, one win, and by that point Peyton Breeze, Roethlisberger, Brady.

0:16:53.800 --> 0:16:56.800
<v Speaker 2>The passing era had arrived, and then it peaked, and

0:16:56.840 --> 0:17:00.320
<v Speaker 2>that peak was lengthy. It's difficult to say exactly where

0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:04.240
<v Speaker 2>it culminated because Patrick Mahomes toppled the records set by

0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:07.800
<v Speaker 2>Manning in twenty thirteen in the twenty eighteen season, and

0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:11.520
<v Speaker 2>those Manning records toppled the Brady records of two thousand

0:17:11.520 --> 0:17:14.120
<v Speaker 2>and seven and that unprecedented season they had that year.

0:17:14.520 --> 0:17:17.600
<v Speaker 2>I think we're seeing the cycle accelerate early in twenty

0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:20.919
<v Speaker 2>twenty four, when early in twenty twenty three that was

0:17:20.960 --> 0:17:22.680
<v Speaker 2>the beginning of the pendulum swing.

0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:25.240
<v Speaker 1>Twenty twenty three was the lowest total for a.

0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:27.879
<v Speaker 2>League leader, our own to a tongue I loap with

0:17:27.960 --> 0:17:31.240
<v Speaker 2>over forty six hundred passing yards, since Drew Brees led

0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:34.520
<v Speaker 2>the league with just over forty four hundred passing yards.

0:17:34.840 --> 0:17:38.200
<v Speaker 2>We had double digit five thousand yard passing seasons over

0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:41.760
<v Speaker 2>that span. You might recall Dan Marino had the first

0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:45.480
<v Speaker 2>one in nineteen eighty four, and it didn't happen again

0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:49.240
<v Speaker 2>for another twenty four years. One instance of five thousand

0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:53.639
<v Speaker 2>passing yards through the NFL's first ninety three seasons, and

0:17:53.680 --> 0:17:56.679
<v Speaker 2>then thirteen of them in the next sixteen seasons. But

0:17:56.760 --> 0:18:00.680
<v Speaker 2>it's been it gets Barron a year since our last one.

0:18:00.840 --> 0:18:03.800
<v Speaker 2>Twenty twenty three was just one of two seasons since

0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:07.359
<v Speaker 2>twenty seventeen that didn't have a five thousand yard passer.

0:18:07.640 --> 0:18:10.600
<v Speaker 2>If you can believe it, Jameis Winston was once a

0:18:10.640 --> 0:18:14.000
<v Speaker 2>five thousand yard passer, and if trends are any indication,

0:18:14.359 --> 0:18:17.280
<v Speaker 2>we ain't getting one in twenty twenty four either. But

0:18:17.400 --> 0:18:22.119
<v Speaker 2>why might you think that is here's one place to start.

0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:24.720
<v Speaker 2>The number of two high shells has increased by over

0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:28.040
<v Speaker 2>twenty percent inside of a five year period. In twenty nineteen,

0:18:28.160 --> 0:18:31.479
<v Speaker 2>teams ran too high or more at thirty eight percent

0:18:31.560 --> 0:18:34.400
<v Speaker 2>of the time. Through two weeks of the new season,

0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:38.080
<v Speaker 2>teams are running too high at a sixty two percent clip,

0:18:38.320 --> 0:18:41.880
<v Speaker 2>and it has caused this ripple effect on numbers, effectively

0:18:41.960 --> 0:18:46.240
<v Speaker 2>changing the game. Depth of target averages are way down.

0:18:46.640 --> 0:18:49.960
<v Speaker 2>It's under seven for the first time in two decades.

0:18:50.040 --> 0:18:53.080
<v Speaker 2>In fact, the lowest it got prior to twenty twenty

0:18:53.080 --> 0:18:56.440
<v Speaker 2>four was seven and a half. It's six point eight rate.

0:18:56.480 --> 0:19:01.480
<v Speaker 2>Now it's trending towards being a full yard lower. And

0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:03.920
<v Speaker 2>the reason you've been told for a decade plus now

0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:07.800
<v Speaker 2>that running backs don't matter comes squarely from the analytics

0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:12.040
<v Speaker 2>community that focuses on a stat called EPA expected points added.

0:19:12.400 --> 0:19:14.959
<v Speaker 2>The math behind it is that a good run is

0:19:15.200 --> 0:19:17.479
<v Speaker 2>four yards, right. A back who averages four yards per

0:19:17.520 --> 0:19:19.960
<v Speaker 2>carry is a good back, but a quarterback that wants

0:19:20.000 --> 0:19:22.840
<v Speaker 2>to be a good quarterback needs to be around seven

0:19:22.920 --> 0:19:25.359
<v Speaker 2>and a half yards per attempt or so. So pretty

0:19:25.400 --> 0:19:28.080
<v Speaker 2>basic to look at that and say our good runs

0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:31.840
<v Speaker 2>are half as effective as our good passes while teams

0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:35.800
<v Speaker 2>taking shorter, quicker throws and the implementation of penalties or

0:19:35.880 --> 0:19:38.680
<v Speaker 2>misses on those throws on top of what teams are

0:19:38.680 --> 0:19:40.520
<v Speaker 2>willing to give up in the running game to prevent

0:19:40.560 --> 0:19:44.720
<v Speaker 2>those big plays, Well you're getting this inverse of EPA

0:19:44.880 --> 0:19:48.880
<v Speaker 2>per run play compared to EPA per pass play. It's

0:19:48.960 --> 0:19:53.040
<v Speaker 2>a fascinating dichotomy, but also kind of a simple one.

0:19:53.080 --> 0:19:56.639
<v Speaker 2>Offenses began to spread things out, defenses didn't adjust, and

0:19:56.720 --> 0:19:59.800
<v Speaker 2>explosive plays were the result. Ten to fifteen years ago,

0:20:00.240 --> 0:20:04.159
<v Speaker 2>then defenses adjusted because they have the tangible proof that

0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:06.920
<v Speaker 2>they have to play lighter boxes to contend with all

0:20:06.960 --> 0:20:10.119
<v Speaker 2>the speed and skill on the perimeter. So they remove

0:20:10.160 --> 0:20:12.600
<v Speaker 2>hats from the box to match. And what does the

0:20:12.680 --> 0:20:16.560
<v Speaker 2>offense's focus then become? You guessed it to run into

0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:18.720
<v Speaker 2>those looks. It's a cycle that will never die in

0:20:18.760 --> 0:20:23.119
<v Speaker 2>this sport. Create overplay, react to overplay. But there's more.

0:20:23.640 --> 0:20:26.600
<v Speaker 2>It's not as simple as too high equals run. Don't

0:20:26.640 --> 0:20:30.159
<v Speaker 2>get this twisted? The spread revolution one and long gone

0:20:30.200 --> 0:20:33.359
<v Speaker 2>are the days of Mike Allstatt donning shoulder pads of

0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:36.560
<v Speaker 2>Jake Berman in Little Giants. That's the kid that shows

0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:38.760
<v Speaker 2>up to practice in Bubble Rap. By the way, I

0:20:38.800 --> 0:20:41.359
<v Speaker 2>could have sworn he had a name like Squints and Sandlot.

0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:43.399
<v Speaker 2>I just feel like you have to give that character

0:20:43.480 --> 0:20:46.080
<v Speaker 2>a more defining name than Jake Berman.

0:20:46.160 --> 0:20:46.880
<v Speaker 1>But I digress.

0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:49.680
<v Speaker 2>We aren't going back to that, but we are definitely

0:20:49.720 --> 0:20:53.560
<v Speaker 2>in the zag era of defenses to the offense's zig,

0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:56.800
<v Speaker 2>and they're starting to zag back. Still with me, When

0:20:56.840 --> 0:21:00.800
<v Speaker 2>teams can limit the explosives, force the offense into longer drives,

0:21:00.800 --> 0:21:05.119
<v Speaker 2>which creates more chances for errors, right penalties, drops missed

0:21:05.119 --> 0:21:07.879
<v Speaker 2>assignments leads to negative plays. It's a lot tougher to

0:21:07.920 --> 0:21:10.200
<v Speaker 2>be perfect on twelve plays than it is to get

0:21:10.200 --> 0:21:13.359
<v Speaker 2>behind a defensive back for one play. On Thursday, the

0:21:13.400 --> 0:21:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Buffalo Bills refuse to let Miami do to them what

0:21:17.000 --> 0:21:19.040
<v Speaker 2>the Dolphins did to the Jaguars. We saw the eighty

0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:21.760
<v Speaker 2>yard touchdown the Tyreek hill, the sixty three yard play

0:21:22.080 --> 0:21:24.760
<v Speaker 2>to Jalen Waddle. The Bills played too high at a

0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:27.520
<v Speaker 2>rate of seventy five percent and stayed in Cover two

0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:30.720
<v Speaker 2>two man or quarters. Cover two is a high low

0:21:30.760 --> 0:21:33.960
<v Speaker 2>concept and zone safeties take half the deep field. The

0:21:34.080 --> 0:21:37.080
<v Speaker 2>underneath cornerbacks play the curl flat. They can re route

0:21:37.119 --> 0:21:40.120
<v Speaker 2>through press from here or playoff. It doesn't matter. It's

0:21:40.119 --> 0:21:42.359
<v Speaker 2>a zone coverage all the way across the board. That's

0:21:42.359 --> 0:21:45.040
<v Speaker 2>different than two man, which keeps those same half field

0:21:45.119 --> 0:21:47.240
<v Speaker 2>safeties up high in the top of the defense. But

0:21:47.320 --> 0:21:50.520
<v Speaker 2>you play man coverage with those cornerbacks, and they typically

0:21:50.560 --> 0:21:53.840
<v Speaker 2>do so with press to funnel those routes to their help.

0:21:54.119 --> 0:21:56.000
<v Speaker 2>This is a big reason why Miami was able to

0:21:56.080 --> 0:21:57.600
<v Speaker 2>run the ball for over one hundred yards in the

0:21:57.600 --> 0:22:00.240
<v Speaker 2>first half against Buffalo, and had Miami stayed in the

0:22:00.280 --> 0:22:03.080
<v Speaker 2>game on the scoreboard and not had those errors in

0:22:03.119 --> 0:22:05.920
<v Speaker 2>the passing game, it probably would have continued all night long.

0:22:06.240 --> 0:22:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Hence why defenses are willing to do this. It opens

0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:13.879
<v Speaker 2>up more opportunities for mistakes for posterity. Quarters coverage is

0:22:13.920 --> 0:22:16.120
<v Speaker 2>a four high look where the defense puts four deep

0:22:16.160 --> 0:22:19.040
<v Speaker 2>zone defenders down the field, each covering a quarter of

0:22:19.080 --> 0:22:20.040
<v Speaker 2>the deep part of the field.

0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:20.880
<v Speaker 1>Four quarters.

0:22:21.119 --> 0:22:24.199
<v Speaker 2>You paired those coverages that limit the vertical attack. With

0:22:24.240 --> 0:22:27.320
<v Speaker 2>a league chalk full of elite pass rushers, if quarterbacks

0:22:27.359 --> 0:22:30.240
<v Speaker 2>can't get through their process through their progression quick enough,

0:22:30.840 --> 0:22:33.440
<v Speaker 2>then the negative plays come into play and few things

0:22:33.520 --> 0:22:36.600
<v Speaker 2>kill a drive like eating sacks. To protect against that.

0:22:36.800 --> 0:22:39.560
<v Speaker 2>To get more pass protectors, to get more run blockers,

0:22:39.840 --> 0:22:43.040
<v Speaker 2>teams have called upon more fullbacks and tight ends. The

0:22:43.080 --> 0:22:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Dolphins saw three tight ends play over twenty snaps each

0:22:46.320 --> 0:22:49.120
<v Speaker 2>in the game last Thursday. We know alec Ingold's role

0:22:49.119 --> 0:22:52.280
<v Speaker 2>in the offense. The World Champs kept an undrafted rookie

0:22:52.280 --> 0:22:54.920
<v Speaker 2>and Carson Steele to play full back in an offense

0:22:54.920 --> 0:22:57.720
<v Speaker 2>that has not rostered a fullback in the Patrick Mahomes era.

0:22:58.320 --> 0:23:02.120
<v Speaker 2>The defense's counter highbrid off ball linebackers who can play

0:23:02.160 --> 0:23:05.040
<v Speaker 2>the edge. Players that allow the defense to counter the

0:23:05.080 --> 0:23:08.520
<v Speaker 2>offense's use of versatile players like a George Kittle, who

0:23:08.600 --> 0:23:11.000
<v Speaker 2>can be one of the game's best blockers one week

0:23:11.080 --> 0:23:13.760
<v Speaker 2>and one of the game's best pass catchers the next.

0:23:14.119 --> 0:23:16.600
<v Speaker 2>So you get players like July Tavia in New England

0:23:16.600 --> 0:23:19.240
<v Speaker 2>who typically aligns in an off ball position but can

0:23:19.280 --> 0:23:22.119
<v Speaker 2>also condense down off the edge to change the front

0:23:22.160 --> 0:23:24.520
<v Speaker 2>and the count for the quarterback, for the quarterback to

0:23:24.560 --> 0:23:27.160
<v Speaker 2>assess all of that within a forty second shot clock.

0:23:27.480 --> 0:23:30.959
<v Speaker 2>Defenses all over the league have these guys Caden Ellison Atlanta,

0:23:31.040 --> 0:23:34.639
<v Speaker 2>Leoschanel in Kansas City, Pete Werner in New Orleans, and

0:23:34.680 --> 0:23:39.040
<v Speaker 2>Frankie Luvu Go Koog's in Washington. Just like Mike Allstatts

0:23:39.119 --> 0:23:42.720
<v Speaker 2>type are extinct, so too is the neck rolled shoulder

0:23:42.760 --> 0:23:45.920
<v Speaker 2>pad shelf higher than my helmet nasal strip I black

0:23:45.920 --> 0:23:48.679
<v Speaker 2>wearing Mike linebacker. And that's before we get to the

0:23:48.680 --> 0:23:51.119
<v Speaker 2>big nickels from the safety position like Brian branch or

0:23:51.200 --> 0:23:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Kyle Hamilton or Buffalo's do it all slot cornerback Taron Johnson.

0:23:55.200 --> 0:23:58.600
<v Speaker 2>It's a game of constant cat and mouse. Offenses have

0:23:58.680 --> 0:24:01.960
<v Speaker 2>to start to incorporate motion or have begun. I should say,

0:24:01.960 --> 0:24:06.119
<v Speaker 2>in corporate motion to give them information pre snap. Defenses

0:24:06.280 --> 0:24:09.120
<v Speaker 2>are starting to play half field structures that allow them

0:24:09.160 --> 0:24:12.120
<v Speaker 2>to not react to the motion, and quarterbacks will then

0:24:12.240 --> 0:24:15.240
<v Speaker 2>have to win post snap, which is usually around two

0:24:15.280 --> 0:24:17.119
<v Speaker 2>and a half seconds. By the way, and I'm not

0:24:17.160 --> 0:24:21.080
<v Speaker 2>sure which is tougher picking up a ninety nine mile

0:24:21.200 --> 0:24:24.919
<v Speaker 2>per hour fastball or figuring out a defense in two

0:24:24.960 --> 0:24:26.160
<v Speaker 2>and a half seconds with my.

0:24:26.200 --> 0:24:28.280
<v Speaker 1>Well being being on the line.

0:24:28.440 --> 0:24:29.760
<v Speaker 2>And if you don't get an answer by the time

0:24:29.760 --> 0:24:31.560
<v Speaker 2>that it takes you to buckle your chin strap, then

0:24:31.560 --> 0:24:35.080
<v Speaker 2>here comes Miles Garrett, Dexter Lawrence, or Micah Parsons ready

0:24:35.119 --> 0:24:37.920
<v Speaker 2>to put you on a stretcher. So the results of

0:24:37.960 --> 0:24:41.159
<v Speaker 2>all this reduced pass rates through two weeks, teams are

0:24:41.200 --> 0:24:44.320
<v Speaker 2>averaging thirty pass attempts per game. There was sixty six

0:24:44.359 --> 0:24:46.840
<v Speaker 2>touchdown passes in the NFL through two weeks in twenty

0:24:46.920 --> 0:24:50.520
<v Speaker 2>twenty four, last year eighty six, twenty twenty two a

0:24:50.560 --> 0:24:54.359
<v Speaker 2>bucko five, twenty twenty one one ten, the same as

0:24:54.359 --> 0:24:57.120
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty and twenty nineteen. It was still triple digits

0:24:57.200 --> 0:25:00.240
<v Speaker 2>at a bucko five. Again, rushes per game are up

0:25:00.359 --> 0:25:02.280
<v Speaker 2>twenty seven and a half rushes per game we are

0:25:02.359 --> 0:25:04.560
<v Speaker 2>knocking on the door of a fifty to fifty split.

0:25:04.880 --> 0:25:08.240
<v Speaker 2>Points per game are down twenty one point four per game.

0:25:08.480 --> 0:25:11.479
<v Speaker 2>That's lower than last year's lowest in a decade of

0:25:11.520 --> 0:25:13.359
<v Speaker 2>twenty one point eight, and if you go back at

0:25:13.400 --> 0:25:16.520
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty, teams were scoring just a hair under twenty

0:25:16.560 --> 0:25:20.159
<v Speaker 2>five points per game. As for the rush and pass disparity,

0:25:20.480 --> 0:25:22.600
<v Speaker 2>last year it was thirty four to twenty seven in

0:25:22.640 --> 0:25:25.600
<v Speaker 2>favor of the pass. In two weeks, that seven play

0:25:25.640 --> 0:25:28.000
<v Speaker 2>gap has shrunk to less than three. It's more than

0:25:28.040 --> 0:25:30.159
<v Speaker 2>cut in half. And if you go back just a

0:25:30.160 --> 0:25:33.200
<v Speaker 2>few years in twenty twenty, it was thirty six pass

0:25:33.200 --> 0:25:35.600
<v Speaker 2>attempts per game and twenty six rush attempts per game.

0:25:35.840 --> 0:25:38.800
<v Speaker 2>So in less than half of a decade, we've gone

0:25:38.840 --> 0:25:41.960
<v Speaker 2>from a sixty to forty split to fifty two forty eight.

0:25:43.160 --> 0:25:46.439
<v Speaker 2>That's not just a pendulum swing. That's Dan Marino taking

0:25:46.480 --> 0:25:49.719
<v Speaker 2>the pendulum, rearing it back behind his ear and humming

0:25:49.720 --> 0:25:51.800
<v Speaker 2>it in the other direction like one of those nerve

0:25:51.960 --> 0:25:54.480
<v Speaker 2>vortex footballs that you had as a kid back in

0:25:54.520 --> 0:25:57.399
<v Speaker 2>the nineteen nineties. If you're my age, it's fitting, isn't it.

0:25:57.840 --> 0:26:02.080
<v Speaker 2>When they were inventing a fantasy football to give you

0:26:02.160 --> 0:26:04.720
<v Speaker 2>and your friends more long bombs in your backyard game.

0:26:04.960 --> 0:26:07.199
<v Speaker 2>The NFL was a three yards and a cloud of

0:26:07.200 --> 0:26:10.920
<v Speaker 2>a dust league. Now, after a decade of the aerial revolution,

0:26:11.520 --> 0:26:14.800
<v Speaker 2>just like high wasted baggy jeans, we're right back where

0:26:14.840 --> 0:26:18.320
<v Speaker 2>we were in the era of TGIF programming. Boy meets world,

0:26:18.520 --> 0:26:22.480
<v Speaker 2>pleated khakis and undercut hairstyles. Just like the game of football,

0:26:22.800 --> 0:26:25.760
<v Speaker 2>we are a people of cycles. Let's go ahead and

0:26:25.760 --> 0:26:27.879
<v Speaker 2>take our last break right there. Come back on the

0:26:27.920 --> 0:26:30.359
<v Speaker 2>other side. Tell you about Tyler Huntley and how we

0:26:30.400 --> 0:26:33.200
<v Speaker 2>can craft an offense with all this information in mind

0:26:33.680 --> 0:26:36.040
<v Speaker 2>to try to win games with both Tyler Huntley and

0:26:36.080 --> 0:26:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Scalar Thompson. That's next Draft Time podcast, your host Travis Wingfield,

0:26:39.680 --> 0:26:43.840
<v Speaker 2>brought to you by Auto Nation. Not exactly fresh off

0:26:43.880 --> 0:26:47.560
<v Speaker 2>the wire, but since we're doing this podcast on Tuesday morning,

0:26:47.720 --> 0:26:49.760
<v Speaker 2>I think is when it comes out. The news that

0:26:49.800 --> 0:26:53.199
<v Speaker 2>came across the wire on Monday was the Dolphins acquisition

0:26:53.320 --> 0:26:56.560
<v Speaker 2>of quarterback Tyler Huntley off the Baltimore Ravens practice squad.

0:26:56.600 --> 0:27:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Let's go ahead and open this segment with coach McDaniel

0:27:00.480 --> 0:27:01.359
<v Speaker 2>on Tyler Huntley.

0:27:01.520 --> 0:27:06.439
<v Speaker 3>If you're not gonna adhere to timelines based upon you know,

0:27:06.880 --> 0:27:09.040
<v Speaker 3>what the science tells us and how we want to

0:27:09.040 --> 0:27:15.560
<v Speaker 3>approach individual uh situations and and and player injuries with

0:27:15.680 --> 0:27:20.840
<v Speaker 3>that unknown, you know that that was something that's you know,

0:27:20.960 --> 0:27:26.800
<v Speaker 3>he ever since he he's it's been a parent from

0:27:26.840 --> 0:27:31.119
<v Speaker 3>afar and then having a couple or having some coaches

0:27:31.160 --> 0:27:33.040
<v Speaker 3>that have been around him. You know, I shoot, he

0:27:33.080 --> 0:27:37.760
<v Speaker 3>was replacing the league MVP, and you could tell from

0:27:37.880 --> 0:27:41.879
<v Speaker 3>far away that that he was a guy that the

0:27:41.960 --> 0:27:46.000
<v Speaker 3>team absolutely believed could lead them to victory. I think

0:27:46.000 --> 0:27:52.160
<v Speaker 3>that's a very huge tangible thing for a non QB

0:27:52.280 --> 0:27:57.920
<v Speaker 3>one necessarily, and so for us without knowing exact timelines,

0:27:58.400 --> 0:28:03.120
<v Speaker 3>you know, we got to learn firsthand a nice nice

0:28:03.160 --> 0:28:07.639
<v Speaker 3>reminder of uh, how how it only takes one play

0:28:08.160 --> 0:28:14.000
<v Speaker 3>and uh, you're you're what you think, your your depth

0:28:14.119 --> 0:28:17.320
<v Speaker 3>is changes abruptly. So this was you know, that's a

0:28:17.440 --> 0:28:22.159
<v Speaker 3>that's a move for you know, moving forward to to

0:28:22.200 --> 0:28:26.840
<v Speaker 3>secure some depth you know, in case of the unforeseen,

0:28:26.880 --> 0:28:31.400
<v Speaker 3>which is timelines for for us as as it relates

0:28:31.480 --> 0:28:31.720
<v Speaker 3>to a.

0:28:31.960 --> 0:28:34.480
<v Speaker 2>To me, the interesting thing about Huntley is I think you,

0:28:34.680 --> 0:28:37.240
<v Speaker 2>for the first time have a square peg in a

0:28:37.320 --> 0:28:40.240
<v Speaker 2>round hole in this offense. He is not like these

0:28:40.240 --> 0:28:42.760
<v Speaker 2>other quarterbacks that we've had here. I do think he

0:28:42.880 --> 0:28:46.160
<v Speaker 2>instantly becomes the best quarterback on the roster while two

0:28:46.280 --> 0:28:49.040
<v Speaker 2>was down, which is a problem in and of itself, right,

0:28:49.040 --> 0:28:51.160
<v Speaker 2>But I think you essentially have to scrap your offense

0:28:51.200 --> 0:28:54.480
<v Speaker 2>as you know it, which I don't know exactly what

0:28:54.520 --> 0:28:55.240
<v Speaker 2>that looks.

0:28:55.000 --> 0:28:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Like, but I'll take a shot at it.

0:28:56.360 --> 0:28:58.720
<v Speaker 2>It's going with Huntley here. First, he is a just

0:28:58.920 --> 0:29:01.320
<v Speaker 2>different quarterback than what you seen here under Mike McDaniel.

0:29:01.320 --> 0:29:04.880
<v Speaker 2>Even back to Utah, his game was creating, incorporating an

0:29:04.920 --> 0:29:07.560
<v Speaker 2>extra threat in the running game, quarterback scramble and hit

0:29:07.600 --> 0:29:10.680
<v Speaker 2>the deep ball at an efficient level. Although his mechanics

0:29:10.680 --> 0:29:12.280
<v Speaker 2>on the deep shots are kind of wonky, so you're

0:29:12.280 --> 0:29:14.400
<v Speaker 2>gonna get your misses, but he does have some hits

0:29:14.440 --> 0:29:16.840
<v Speaker 2>as well. I actually find it to be an interesting

0:29:16.840 --> 0:29:18.800
<v Speaker 2>pairing with the whole bit I just did on the

0:29:18.840 --> 0:29:21.960
<v Speaker 2>podcast here talking about the shifting landscape of football schema.

0:29:22.280 --> 0:29:24.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't think Huntley's game is one where he's going

0:29:24.760 --> 0:29:28.800
<v Speaker 2>to one hitch timing, dial up deep shots, or rip

0:29:28.880 --> 0:29:32.080
<v Speaker 2>these anticipation shots that look like they're heading for a

0:29:32.120 --> 0:29:35.640
<v Speaker 2>triangle of defenders only to be perfectly cut off and

0:29:35.720 --> 0:29:38.920
<v Speaker 2>intersected by a Dolphins wide receiver for eighteen yards. But

0:29:39.000 --> 0:29:41.360
<v Speaker 2>I think you can parse out his game from both

0:29:41.440 --> 0:29:43.720
<v Speaker 2>the stats and the tape, and the tape tells me

0:29:43.760 --> 0:29:46.160
<v Speaker 2>that he is a creator and a big play hunter.

0:29:46.920 --> 0:29:49.080
<v Speaker 2>I hate comparing anybody to this guy because he's the

0:29:49.120 --> 0:29:51.320
<v Speaker 2>worst human being in the league. But it reminds me

0:29:51.360 --> 0:29:53.360
<v Speaker 2>of Deshaun Watson when he was with the Houston Texans,

0:29:53.520 --> 0:29:55.560
<v Speaker 2>where he would just drop back and look around and

0:29:55.600 --> 0:29:58.840
<v Speaker 2>move and shuffle and create space and hit the big

0:29:58.840 --> 0:30:00.680
<v Speaker 2>play with his arm and then have a big run

0:30:00.680 --> 0:30:04.640
<v Speaker 2>that changes the game as well. That's basically Huntley is

0:30:04.680 --> 0:30:08.120
<v Speaker 2>a prime to Shaun Watson, a poor man's prime to

0:30:08.160 --> 0:30:11.560
<v Speaker 2>Shaun Watson, minus all the other stuff. He has a

0:30:11.600 --> 0:30:14.200
<v Speaker 2>twenty percent pressure to sack rate in his career and

0:30:14.280 --> 0:30:16.760
<v Speaker 2>a two point nine to three average time to throw

0:30:16.840 --> 0:30:19.880
<v Speaker 2>rate to A Conversely, just a fifteen percent sack rate,

0:30:19.960 --> 0:30:24.040
<v Speaker 2>which also is more impressive because he takes so many

0:30:24.080 --> 0:30:26.760
<v Speaker 2>fewer pressures because of how fast he plays the position.

0:30:27.040 --> 0:30:29.280
<v Speaker 2>But he also to A has a two point four

0:30:29.360 --> 0:30:31.560
<v Speaker 2>to five career time to throw and actually just the

0:30:31.640 --> 0:30:33.840
<v Speaker 2>last two years is two point three to two, so

0:30:33.920 --> 0:30:36.400
<v Speaker 2>literally more than a half second more or less that

0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:38.080
<v Speaker 2>he gets rid of the ball than Tyler Huntley. So

0:30:38.280 --> 0:30:41.200
<v Speaker 2>it's a complete land shape landscape shift for Huntley. But

0:30:41.240 --> 0:30:45.120
<v Speaker 2>here's my thing. We lose all that stuff with Skyler two.

0:30:45.280 --> 0:30:47.800
<v Speaker 2>So why not take the guy that actually adds an

0:30:47.840 --> 0:30:51.440
<v Speaker 2>element to your offense. One thing that he has that

0:30:51.440 --> 0:30:53.960
<v Speaker 2>no other quarterback has in this roster is the running ability.

0:30:54.120 --> 0:30:56.400
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not even talking about scrambling. Yes, that is

0:30:56.440 --> 0:30:59.320
<v Speaker 2>a big part of his game. Obviously in his career

0:30:59.360 --> 0:31:02.160
<v Speaker 2>he has fifty two scrambles on four hundred and sixty

0:31:02.200 --> 0:31:05.640
<v Speaker 2>eight dropbacks and thirty two sacks taken. His rushing splits

0:31:05.680 --> 0:31:07.480
<v Speaker 2>go like this, though, three hundred and fifty six of

0:31:07.520 --> 0:31:10.840
<v Speaker 2>his rushing yards career are on scrambles and two thirty

0:31:10.880 --> 0:31:13.560
<v Speaker 2>five are on designed runs. The quarterback he backed up

0:31:13.560 --> 0:31:16.200
<v Speaker 2>in Baltimore the greatest running quarterback of all time. I

0:31:16.240 --> 0:31:18.160
<v Speaker 2>will hear the argument from Mike Vick, but I think

0:31:18.160 --> 0:31:21.600
<v Speaker 2>it's Lamar Jackson is split at twenty three hundred yards

0:31:21.640 --> 0:31:25.640
<v Speaker 2>on scrambles and thirty seven hundred yards on designed runs. Obviously,

0:31:25.800 --> 0:31:29.160
<v Speaker 2>nobody is Lamar except Mike Vick. But I think that's

0:31:29.240 --> 0:31:32.320
<v Speaker 2>more in line with how you'd expect Huntley to look

0:31:32.320 --> 0:31:35.200
<v Speaker 2>in Miami. He can create when things break down. But

0:31:35.240 --> 0:31:37.000
<v Speaker 2>I think the best thing that he adds to your

0:31:37.040 --> 0:31:39.920
<v Speaker 2>offense is the ability to run the football with the

0:31:40.000 --> 0:31:43.080
<v Speaker 2>quarterback and then what that does to the defense's fits

0:31:43.080 --> 0:31:46.440
<v Speaker 2>against the actual run game, one more complex run game,

0:31:47.280 --> 0:31:49.320
<v Speaker 2>one of the more complex run games, I should say,

0:31:49.520 --> 0:31:53.640
<v Speaker 2>in the entire business, because suddenly the quarterback becomes part

0:31:53.640 --> 0:31:56.600
<v Speaker 2>of the misdirection, part of the keys, and the manipulation

0:31:56.760 --> 0:31:59.400
<v Speaker 2>of the defense's eyes and all the short motion, all

0:31:59.440 --> 0:32:02.000
<v Speaker 2>these things that he can in corporate. So I'm intrigued

0:32:02.040 --> 0:32:04.240
<v Speaker 2>by that. I'm intrigued by how it pairs with his

0:32:04.280 --> 0:32:07.280
<v Speaker 2>deep passing abilities that are okay, because when he goes

0:32:07.280 --> 0:32:09.080
<v Speaker 2>off script, the best thing that we can do is

0:32:09.080 --> 0:32:12.040
<v Speaker 2>attack the vulnerabilities down the field. And he has that

0:32:12.360 --> 0:32:15.600
<v Speaker 2>pliability slash elasticity in his arm that I don't think

0:32:15.760 --> 0:32:17.520
<v Speaker 2>Skyler has. I know too, it doesn't have it in

0:32:17.560 --> 0:32:20.000
<v Speaker 2>this way to fire that thing deep down the field

0:32:20.040 --> 0:32:21.080
<v Speaker 2>from awkward positions.

0:32:21.120 --> 0:32:23.160
<v Speaker 1>Now, the NFL numbers are bad.

0:32:23.400 --> 0:32:25.239
<v Speaker 2>It's a small sample size, but he does not have

0:32:25.320 --> 0:32:27.600
<v Speaker 2>good deep passing numbers at this level.

0:32:27.840 --> 0:32:28.760
<v Speaker 1>But if you go back to his.

0:32:28.720 --> 0:32:31.360
<v Speaker 2>College tape, I know Travis, it was five years ago, whatever,

0:32:31.400 --> 0:32:31.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't care.

0:32:32.520 --> 0:32:33.840
<v Speaker 1>It still is informative.

0:32:34.160 --> 0:32:36.680
<v Speaker 2>He finished out his last year at Utah inpleting forty

0:32:36.680 --> 0:32:38.720
<v Speaker 2>six percent of his deep shots for nine touchdowns and

0:32:38.760 --> 0:32:40.720
<v Speaker 2>two picks. And I think if you watch him on

0:32:40.760 --> 0:32:44.600
<v Speaker 2>tape as a pro, you see that ability to create

0:32:44.640 --> 0:32:46.240
<v Speaker 2>those chances. You had to remember the offense that he

0:32:46.320 --> 0:32:48.200
<v Speaker 2>was in. It didn't care to that very much. It

0:32:48.240 --> 0:32:51.600
<v Speaker 2>was all run game all the time. Most of all,

0:32:51.720 --> 0:32:53.560
<v Speaker 2>I think it pairs with the entire segment we just

0:32:53.600 --> 0:32:56.360
<v Speaker 2>did there. If you play an offense that has Tyler Huntley,

0:32:56.400 --> 0:32:58.880
<v Speaker 2>Devon eight, chan alec Ingold and Julian Hill in the game,

0:32:59.080 --> 0:33:00.760
<v Speaker 2>you better bring that safe down in the box. And

0:33:00.800 --> 0:33:02.920
<v Speaker 2>if they do that, it means that someone has to

0:33:02.960 --> 0:33:05.800
<v Speaker 2>cover ten or seventeen solo. And that's where I think

0:33:05.840 --> 0:33:08.600
<v Speaker 2>you can live in this world between run heavy occasional

0:33:08.640 --> 0:33:10.600
<v Speaker 2>deep shop. It's kind of like Russell Wilson for the

0:33:10.640 --> 0:33:13.000
<v Speaker 2>Seattle Seahawks for all those years, but obviously again a

0:33:13.040 --> 0:33:16.000
<v Speaker 2>poor man's version of it. That's how I'd envision the

0:33:16.040 --> 0:33:18.680
<v Speaker 2>offense for hunting. But we also have to envision an

0:33:18.680 --> 0:33:21.840
<v Speaker 2>offense for a skyler who will get his shot at

0:33:21.840 --> 0:33:24.560
<v Speaker 2>it after waiting since the playoff game in twenty twenty two.

0:33:24.640 --> 0:33:28.080
<v Speaker 2>Now record this on a Monday, I'm pretty sure he'll

0:33:28.080 --> 0:33:31.440
<v Speaker 2>be Skyler in the game on Sunday. But for him,

0:33:31.520 --> 0:33:33.680
<v Speaker 2>I think it looks a lot different. More so the

0:33:33.680 --> 0:33:35.920
<v Speaker 2>offense that you're run with Tua, primarily because of his

0:33:35.960 --> 0:33:38.200
<v Speaker 2>familiarity with it, not because of the skill set. But

0:33:38.240 --> 0:33:40.040
<v Speaker 2>I think you do have to adapt to his skills.

0:33:40.080 --> 0:33:42.120
<v Speaker 2>And I go back to that Vikings game in twenty

0:33:42.160 --> 0:33:44.000
<v Speaker 2>twenty two, and there was all kinds of play action

0:33:44.040 --> 0:33:47.000
<v Speaker 2>boot get him on the move, more half field reads,

0:33:47.120 --> 0:33:50.680
<v Speaker 2>less static pockets. This offense already plays with a limited

0:33:50.720 --> 0:33:52.600
<v Speaker 2>drop back game, and that's what the whole league is

0:33:52.600 --> 0:33:54.240
<v Speaker 2>doing now. If you haven't noticed by the way talked

0:33:54.280 --> 0:33:57.000
<v Speaker 2>about it all summer long, look at the Saints. They

0:33:57.040 --> 0:33:58.880
<v Speaker 2>just threw up forty seven points in the Cowboys, and

0:33:58.920 --> 0:34:01.480
<v Speaker 2>they called three true in the game and never once

0:34:01.840 --> 0:34:04.000
<v Speaker 2>put an offensive lineman on Micah Parsons. It was a

0:34:04.000 --> 0:34:07.360
<v Speaker 2>combination of unblocked with movement or backs and tight ends

0:34:07.400 --> 0:34:10.239
<v Speaker 2>chipping multiple pieces at the time. Parsons actually after the

0:34:10.280 --> 0:34:12.120
<v Speaker 2>game called it a maze to get through their plan.

0:34:12.200 --> 0:34:14.520
<v Speaker 2>He was really impressed by it, but with Skyler Thompson,

0:34:14.760 --> 0:34:16.840
<v Speaker 2>I think a strong running game is paramount and the

0:34:16.840 --> 0:34:19.479
<v Speaker 2>play action boot game off of that, not to mention

0:34:19.680 --> 0:34:21.560
<v Speaker 2>all the different ways we have of getting the balls

0:34:21.800 --> 0:34:23.720
<v Speaker 2>to the two playmakers on the outside and the screen

0:34:23.760 --> 0:34:26.319
<v Speaker 2>game jet sweep all that fun stuff. So yeah, I

0:34:26.360 --> 0:34:29.520
<v Speaker 2>think you have the option to lean into this trend

0:34:29.600 --> 0:34:31.640
<v Speaker 2>of the running game coming back to life at least

0:34:31.640 --> 0:34:32.960
<v Speaker 2>while QB one gets healthy.

0:34:33.480 --> 0:34:35.400
<v Speaker 1>And that's what I would do. So there you go.

0:34:35.480 --> 0:34:36.919
<v Speaker 2>Let's go ahead and get the hell out of here.

0:34:37.760 --> 0:34:41.000
<v Speaker 2>We have a podcast for you guys tomorrow. John Boyle
