How's it 0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:52.040 going everybody? I am your host, Travis Winfield. And on 0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:53.960 today's show, we have a busy one, so we're not 0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:55.680 gonna take a whole lot of time getting into this 0:00:55.800 --> 0:00:59.160 aftermath tape stats will hear from head coach Mike McDaniel, 0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:00.520 all of that in a heck of a lot more 0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:04.000 from the Baptist Health Studios inside the Baptist Health Training Complex. 0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:10.800 This is the Drive Time Podcast. A lot of the 0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:13.320 breeze through that open because we have a lot of 0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:15.360 notes to get too. Because it was a fun tape 0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:17.480 to watch and we pick it up here with the 0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:20.720 offense and the Browns defense really played a lot of 0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:23.000 Cover six in this game, and that's where you get 0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:25.960 your two high safeties. You roll them to a third 0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:29.120 each and then a third player, a cornerback, will take 0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:31.800 the other third of your deep portion of the field. 0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:35.200 Then you have three players, typically two linebackers and a 0:01:35.319 --> 0:01:38.600 nickel defensive back in the hook zones the intermediate part 0:01:38.600 --> 0:01:41.840 of the field, with the other perimeter cornerback playing a 0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:45.960 curl flat responsibility. It's off coverage, it's designed to keep 0:01:46.000 --> 0:01:48.520 things in front. It's also a possibility to give you 0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:50.920 options to come down and buzz some of those middle 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:53.320 of the field passes we've had all season long. And 0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:55.360 this is a big reason why the box score was 0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:57.560 the way it was and what I think should really 0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:02.640 terrify opposing defensive coordinator because the Browns essentially eliminated the 0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:05.960 opportunity for anything deep for the home run ball for sure. 0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:08.880 So to it just went to work on the vulnerabilities 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:13.000 throwing behind those hook linebackers, finding the flat zones, getting 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:16.040 into favorable run looks, and just spreading the football around 0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:20.000 to the favorable matchups. With that, let's go ahead and 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:22.960 jump into this game from two because we're three weeks 0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:25.359 running now. Best tape I've ever seen him play three 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:27.440 times in a row, which is awesome to say that. 0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:30.280 The first throw that pops is the Surefield grab on 0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:34.120 the first drive for eighteen yards. Really good rhythm relationship 0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:36.960 that with him and Surefield on this deep pivot route. 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:39.840 It looks like an over route where're gonna cross the formation, 0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:41.760 but he sticks the foot in the ground and bends 0:02:41.760 --> 0:02:44.400 it back out the other direction away from that middle 0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:47.200 linebacker dropping into that hook zone, and to Us slides 0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:50.280 up into the pocket and fires it just as Surefield 0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:52.359 puts that foot in the ground, and of course the 0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:55.200 football with the ball placement is just out of reach 0:02:55.280 --> 0:02:58.160 of the underneath man and arrives in the tight window 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:02.000 before the over the top linebacker can get their great timing, 0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:05.280 better location. Get used to hearing that on this podcast. 0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:07.960 On the touchdown to alec Engld, the best part about 0:03:07.960 --> 0:03:10.520 the pump fake is that there wasn't even an option 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:13.120 on the pump to throw the football. He does that 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:16.280 solely to remove the defender from the equation. Because you've 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:19.239 got Tyreek Hill and Jalen Waddle are both blanketed on 0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:22.799 a wheel curl combination and both don't really expect a 0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:24.919 ball to come their way. And what a pump fake. 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:26.760 It was. Like we talked about, like one of the 0:03:26.760 --> 0:03:29.000 things to talking about the quarterbacks all time is hand size. 0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:31.840 To had one of the bigger hand sizes at the 0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:34.160 Combine that year, and the ability to kind of do 0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:37.240 a full pump fake like that maintained possession of the football. 0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:39.720 That's where hand size comes into play for a quarterback. 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:42.200 On a day full of terrific throws, I think his 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:45.920 best one maybe possibly could have been an incompletion. It's 0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:49.840 the first throw of the second quarter. He's got Wattle 0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:52.360 working off the glance route off of RPO, which is 0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:54.480 a staple of r P. Oh It's it's basically a slant, 0:03:54.520 --> 0:03:56.240 but it's like, now, get it to him with a 0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:58.680 skinny little slant route. And the thing about Tyreek and 0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:02.040 Jalen is they can end those. They're like eight yard routes. Typically, 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:04.680 this one went fifteen because of Jalen's speed and the 0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:07.120 Browns do get through on this play with a blitz 0:04:07.280 --> 0:04:08.440 and this is why I think it was such an 0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:11.320 impressive throw from t A. It's the fifth rusher. He 0:04:11.360 --> 0:04:13.680 gets in clean. You do get a great effort from 0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:15.480 raheem most to step over in front of to A 0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:17.799 and cut him off and buy two of the extra 0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:20.880 half second he needs. But to h with that pressure 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.120 right in his face, just falls back a little bit, 0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:25.760 get some more death, give yourself a bigger window to 0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:28.160 get the football off in time to throw the football 0:04:28.400 --> 0:04:31.679 from the awkward platform. It's a fifteen yard glance route, 0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:34.919 an absolute dot without setting his feet right on the 0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:39.159 up upfield shoulder into very tight coverage and Waddle gets 0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:41.160 his hands on it. But the defender, if you look 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:44.080 at it closely, he's got his hand on Jalen's right 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:46.720 bicep and he's not tugging at it for a d P. 0:04:46.880 --> 0:04:49.000 I so I'm asking you for here. But he tugs 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:51.080 at it right when the ball rise, and I think 0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:54.680 that separates Jalen's hands enough to force the incompletion. So 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:57.159 great tight window, throw, good route, just a good play 0:04:57.200 --> 0:04:59.240 from the defensive back. Then we come back on the 0:04:59.279 --> 0:05:01.760 next play and it's probably even better. And this is 0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:04.120 a good example of to getting through his read so 0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:08.839 quickly that Mike McDaniel mentioned post game, He's got Tyreeke 0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:11.920 and Gisicky and a stack to the boundary. What does 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:15.120 that mean? It means Gisicky to the point man Tyreek 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.280 is behind him for a clean release into the short 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:20.000 side of the field. Then you have Trent Sherfield and 0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:22.719 Jalen Waddle to the wide side of the field, the 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:25.640 field side of the formation, and they're in condensed splits. 0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:28.280 That means inside the numbers, so everything is packed in tight. 0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:31.480 It's that cover six look again, and they're pressing on 0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:34.520 Mike and Reek and you see two a work that side. 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:37.120 That's where his head goes first. He keys the safety 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:39.360 up over the top who's in that deep third right, 0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:42.920 But actually this time they rotate to too high. It's 0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:45.159 not a cover six look. It rotates back into a 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:49.000 cover to look, and to h from that look can 0:05:49.040 --> 0:05:52.320 ascertain at the middle of the field was open, which 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:54.840 creates what openings for skinnies and slants and things in 0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:57.320 the middle of the football field. He gets back to 0:05:57.400 --> 0:05:59.960 the field side of the formation immediately and the ball 0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:03.599 is out with Jalen Waddle at ten yards off the 0:06:03.640 --> 0:06:06.080 line of scrimmage. He's just gotten on top of the 0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:09.000 slot cornerback, but he has not yet crossed face so 0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:12.960 that the defender still has that inside position on Wattle, 0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:17.760 but to a is to his third read before the receiver, 0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:19.560 one of the fastest players in the NFL, has ten 0:06:19.640 --> 0:06:22.840 yards downfield. That is a an actual application of how 0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:25.919 quickly Too was reading the defense right now and the 0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:29.440 anticipation that he will and of course he does get 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:32.000 on the inside part of that defensive back, and the 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:35.920 ball settles Wattle right in before the safety who widened 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:38.200 out because of two's initial look to that side of 0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:40.919 the formation before he can get back over the top 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:43.440 and won't put Wattle in any risk of getting a 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:45.880 big hit and a potential chance to catch it and run. 0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:48.600 And boy, he was a centimeter away from stepping out 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:50.800 of that tackle and putting a sixty five yard touchdown 0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:53.039 up on the board. Thirty yard player will take it. 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:56.680 I found a miss. I found one miss on this tape. 0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:59.280 We're at the point we're measuring one or two faults 0:06:59.279 --> 0:07:02.000 from two game now. It's he's playing that clean of 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:05.080 football on the field. Gold drive, early second quarter, Tyreek 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:07.640 comes open on a dig and two. I didn't see him. 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:10.800 I just legit. Don't think that's happened this year just 0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:13.480 missed open Tyreek, didn't. He threw someone else got a completion, 0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:16.240 got positive yards, but Tyreek was opened for a bigger play. 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:20.000 But that's absolutely nitpicking because this quarterback has been so sharp. 0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:22.920 We heard, you know, Mike McDaniel, we heard Frank Smith, 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:26.119 Wes Welker, coach Darryl Bevil all talk about how well 0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:29.400 to is seeing the field. I think that deep comeback 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:32.200 to Tyreek is a great example of that. The Browns, 0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:34.600 like we mentioned, playing a lot of that Cover six, 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:37.200 which can easily convert into Cover three where you have 0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:40.440 you know, three deep coverage guys and then you have, uh, 0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:42.080 it's it's a two corners and the safety and you 0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:45.160 bring another safety down to buzz potential crossing routes to 0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:47.960 potentially play the hook zone. So it's it's kind of similar, 0:07:47.960 --> 0:07:50.320 but it changes based upon whose where, and you don't 0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:53.160 have that cornerback hanging out underneath. So in this cover 0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:55.240 three look, that means that Tyreek is now all of 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.240 a sudden with a pressure look one on one with 0:07:58.280 --> 0:08:00.679 no safety help to his side of the formation, which 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:03.760 of course means the cornerback better get into a full 0:08:03.800 --> 0:08:06.200 sprint towards the goal. Line because you have to. You 0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:09.360 have to with Tyreek hill speed to has the football 0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:13.920 out before Tyreek goes after the blind spot of the 0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:17.400 cornerback by slamming on the brakes and breaking the route outward. 0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:19.800 And the reason this is also effective is not just 0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:22.400 because the Tyreek speed big part of that, but because 0:08:22.440 --> 0:08:26.360 two has shown his application of understanding the leverage of 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:28.760 that off corner. If he's gonna squat, Tool will just 0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:30.360 throw it deep and Tyrek will take off and he'll 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:33.000 take the vertical shot. Or if he gets depth to 0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:35.760 a throws back underneath and Tyreek knows when to break 0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:38.199 that route off. The relationship and the chemistry and the 0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:41.200 synchronicity of those two guys is really the best in 0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:44.160 the league right now in my opinion. And with two 0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:47.360 brown jerseys into us face, not to mention to like 0:08:47.800 --> 0:08:50.480 unblocked guys right in his face, like there's no white 0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:52.920 jersey in front of two, it's brown jerseys, two of 0:08:52.960 --> 0:08:54.920 them right in front of him. The feet are not set, 0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:57.280 the ball is out before the break, and it's right 0:08:57.280 --> 0:08:59.520 where it needs to be, right when it needs to 0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:03.280 be there. That is such an elite throw. Have mercy 0:09:03.679 --> 0:09:05.679 the drive before the end of the half, he did 0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:07.679 that thing again where he pulls the cloud corn to 0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:10.240 the flat by looking that direction and then throws right 0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:12.600 behind him. You get tyreek on a square in at 0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:15.760 two yards to hitches up, kind of separates the hands quickly. 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:19.120 That forces that cloud corner to bite immediately resets and 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:21.319 pops the corner route over the top a dime to 0:09:21.440 --> 0:09:25.440 Mike Kasicki for fifteen yards. The location on the Wattle 0:09:25.800 --> 0:09:29.360 third down conversion on the out route and the touchdown 0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:32.000 pass to Trent Sureffill are just you can't place the 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:34.000 football any better than those two throws. We broke it 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:37.199 down on the Sunday Night Monday Victory edition of the 0:09:37.280 --> 0:09:40.520 Drivetime podcast, but just marvel at it on tape because 0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:44.559 those throws were absolutely perfect to Waddle putting it up high, 0:09:44.800 --> 0:09:47.760 because for a cornerback like there's a chance to undercut 0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:49.880 that and drive and take it back for six the 0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:52.559 other way, but to do that and elevate it's not 0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:55.600 really possible. And so the placement on a far hash 0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:58.120 out route is so good. To put that ball up 0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:00.719 high so Wattle can elevate and go get it. Then 0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:03.320 the surefield throw. Look, the ball was out when Trent 0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:05.120 was at the eight yard line and the cornerback is 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:08.640 at the five, so three yards before he's even he's 0:10:08.679 --> 0:10:11.200 leaving and the ball probably would have scraped the top 0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:13.400 of the back part of the pylon if no one 0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:18.000 touched the football. It's insane keyhole accuracy from this quarterback. 0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:20.439 Maybe my favorite part of the game for two was 0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:23.000 how he adjusted coming out of the break because the 0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:25.400 first two throws he makes and the second half a 0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:28.199 little floater to Jeff Wilson for fourteen yards in a 0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:30.600 catch and run, and they checked down to alec Ingold 0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:32.400 where he spends out of a tackle for a first down. 0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:35.520 As well. What you'll see is the Browns are dropping 0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:37.760 into more of a quarters look, a four deep look, 0:10:38.200 --> 0:10:41.240 and with deeper hook coverage, those linebackers are pushing back 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:44.080 because again that's where Miami has lived all year long. 0:10:44.280 --> 0:10:46.520 You get seven in coverage and then the four other 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:48.880 four guys rush, and where does that leave you open 0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:51.720 in the flats? So to it just starts attacking the flats. 0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:54.959 He's got answers to the test right now to every question, 0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:58.200 and that's how you're getting what coach called it really 0:10:58.280 --> 0:11:01.040 high level quarterback play. They're gonna all right, we'll go 0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:03.400 after that vulnerability. You know. Mike mcdown talked about this 0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:07.400 last week after the UH Bears game about how his 0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:09.560 game planning starts with an abstract thought and then to 0:11:09.600 --> 0:11:12.920 go out and approach and attack defensive vulnerabilities a post 0:11:12.960 --> 0:11:15.560 and just you know, taking plays out of your own playbook. 0:11:15.720 --> 0:11:19.160 He wants to attack the particular vulnerabilities. Two was doing 0:11:19.160 --> 0:11:21.080 the same thing. Like, think about that for a second. 0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:23.120 It's a good place to be if you're a fan 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:25.640 of the Miami Dolphins. Just a few plays later, you 0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:28.200 get another intangible trait to show up. He's got a 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:31.199 clean pocket. He wants Mike Gasick on the crossing route, 0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:34.200 pumps the first window that allows Mike to then clear 0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:36.400 out of the second window and just drills that thing 0:11:36.440 --> 0:11:39.559 between the two eights on Mike Kasiki's jersey. Derham Smith 0:11:39.600 --> 0:11:41.840 had a great pick up on split flow action on 0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:43.839 that play too, By the way, I wanted to shout 0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:46.120 that out the third and tent on the next drive, 0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:48.760 the Browns get one of their pressures. There wasn't many 0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:51.520 with Miles Garrett getting up field, but to us steps 0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:53.440 around it and a great job by Tehran, who did 0:11:53.480 --> 0:11:55.600 give up this pressure on this play to ride that 0:11:55.640 --> 0:11:58.200 block all the way past the quarterback and stay engage 0:11:58.240 --> 0:12:01.480 because it helped to get that reset and shoulder roll 0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:04.839 right into perfect alignment and mechanics like to get off 0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:07.360 your spot, your mechanics get broken, you have to reset them. 0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:10.480 Did it perfectly, shoots it between four Browns defenders to 0:12:10.520 --> 0:12:13.000 an open Jalan waddle to convert on third and ten. 0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:15.360 Once again, move the chains, a little bit of everything 0:12:15.400 --> 0:12:18.080 on this tape. Man the touchdown pass to Tyreek Hill 0:12:18.200 --> 0:12:21.920 more exceptional work and just another thing he does. The 0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:24.679 Browns get a free runner in the B gap that 0:12:24.760 --> 0:12:27.720 usually spells disaster for most quarterbacks. Best case scenario. Most 0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:30.280 of the time, in that situation, just throw the football away. 0:12:30.360 --> 0:12:32.400 Watch other games around the league right now, and how 0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:35.040 many quarterbacks have to eat plays. Two is not eating 0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:37.680 plays almost every There's a couple here and there, but 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:40.880 it's just not happening. He continues his drop back and 0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:44.320 throws from that shortstop reset arm angle with his feet 0:12:44.360 --> 0:12:46.360 not set at all and puts it right out in 0:12:46.400 --> 0:12:49.079 front of Tyreek, who helps make this play because he 0:12:49.160 --> 0:12:51.640 stacked his man. He puts the defensive back on his back, 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:54.199 keeps him there and makes a tough catch. Have a 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:56.600 day at one, have an absolute day. I keep thinking 0:12:56.600 --> 0:12:58.320 we're on the last play here, but then we get 0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:00.640 another great throw, the big play of Trench Rfield late 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:03.559 that conflict hook defender we talked about every single week 0:13:03.600 --> 0:13:05.560 in the podcast, where he kind of has to keep 0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:08.120 is two are gonna throw the wheel? Is he gonna 0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:10.000 throw the flat? Is he gonna throw the glance to? 0:13:10.400 --> 0:13:13.960 On this play, strides to the flat, the linebacker flushes 0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:15.680 out and chases that, and then to it just pops 0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:18.120 it right over the middle for the big lane, big opener, 0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:20.559 big opening, I should say to Trent Surefield, who makes 0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:22.680 the catch, lowers his shoulder, stays on his feet, and 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:25.319 turns a thirteen yard gain into like twenty eight yards. 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:27.319 So just really high level stuff from all these guys. 0:13:27.480 --> 0:13:29.720 And then another one. The location on that third and 0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:33.040 one throw to Waddle to extend that late touchdown drive. 0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:35.960 The location was absolutely perfect. Jalen just basically puts his 0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:38.240 hands out and cradles it into his chest against that 0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:41.040 inside leverage of the cornerback. What a banner day for QB. 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:44.800 One man. He is, he is so so exceptionally good. 0:13:44.800 --> 0:13:48.120 He's a phenomenal, phenomenal football player the running backs. Where 0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:51.160 he most her his second run was that toss against 0:13:51.160 --> 0:13:52.840 the motion, and man, he looked like he was in 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:55.319 trouble behind the line, but he winds up gaining yards. 0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:59.640 His patient's vision and ability to create advantageous blocking angles 0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:02.680 would never go unnoticed. He helps get maximum yards on 0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:05.840 these runs. Such a smooth and natural runner, and his 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:08.720 speed will obviously help take advantage when you have great blocking. 0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:10.720 They talked about it all last year, how there were 0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:13.200 some lanes we didn't take advantage of. And on this 0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:16.520 particular twenty four yard touchdown run, it's well blocked, and 0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:19.040 what a job by him to press blocks and really 0:14:19.480 --> 0:14:22.600 create these perfect angles for his his run blockers. But 0:14:22.640 --> 0:14:24.880 man on that plane, look at Connor Williams and Rob Hunt. 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:27.240 If you go back and watch it, it's such an 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:31.120 outstanding combo block, just walling off the entire backside of 0:14:31.160 --> 0:14:33.920 the play while Rob Jones and Tehron Arms had hit 0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:36.880 a play side seal and down block. And it's a finished, 0:14:37.160 --> 0:14:40.360 a terrific finish by Trent Sherfield with his block downfield, 0:14:40.360 --> 0:14:43.000 But most speeds sets it up Miami hat on a hat, 0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:45.280 and that was the case all day long. I marvel 0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:48.280 at Jeff Wilson's ability to drop his pads and make 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:51.560 the decision to either run through the tackle or sidestep 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:53.560 it because it all looks the same. I'm not gonna 0:14:53.560 --> 0:14:56.760 make my Felix Hernandez fastball change up comparison again, but 0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:59.000 it reminds me of that it pairs so well with 0:14:59.080 --> 0:15:03.760 his offenses. False keys that create they create because you 0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:07.040 get this in decision from a processing standpoint at that 0:15:07.120 --> 0:15:09.560 second level, and if you hit your blocks in the 0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:11.400 first level, the scheme kind of takes care of that 0:15:11.480 --> 0:15:13.880 second level for you. And then on top of that, 0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:17.840 Jeff Wilson's quickness and power combination allows him to either 0:15:18.440 --> 0:15:23.640 maximize that indecision by cutting wide or just run right 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:27.400 through somebody who's on their heels because of the situation 0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:29.080 he's put them in. Watch how many of these gash 0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:31.240 runs in a game where Jeff Wilson gets to the 0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:33.840 whole in a one on one situation, linebacker kind of 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:37.000 comes to balance, but he's not playing forward because he's processing. 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:39.600 Was it a jet sweep? Was it a run following 0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:41.680 the fullback to to a pull and throw it behind 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:44.080 my ear hole. He's trying to process these forty five 0:15:44.120 --> 0:15:46.560 thoud things, and then you get twenty three coming at 0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:49.360 your downhill and you're still processing. It's too late at 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:51.640 that point. It's the same thing as if he's even 0:15:51.680 --> 0:15:53.640 he's leaving for a wide receiver, the exact same thing. 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:57.560 Alec Ingold is a phenomenal football player. The athletic ability 0:15:57.760 --> 0:15:59.840 from a fullback is absurd. You'll hear him on the 0:16:00.200 --> 0:16:02.840 tank about, you know, moving from high school to college, 0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:05.760 from quarterback to running back to linebacker, back to fullback. 0:16:06.000 --> 0:16:08.200 So it makes sense. But man, that run after the 0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:10.280 catch looked like a running back to me, both on 0:16:10.360 --> 0:16:12.440 his touchdown catch but also the one later the game 0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:15.160 when to have found him to start the third quarter. 0:16:15.880 --> 0:16:17.640 I want to put the entire offensive line in one 0:16:17.640 --> 0:16:20.240 category this league. This week, and I started counting how 0:16:20.280 --> 0:16:22.960 many bodies were on the ground in terms of dolphins 0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:25.960 pancakes in the running game and then also just basically 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:28.120 throwing dudes to the ground in the past Pro game. 0:16:28.440 --> 0:16:30.840 I stopped counting in double digits in the first half 0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:32.720 because it was I just could I couldn't keep up. 0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:34.480 There was too many go back and watch this tape. 0:16:34.520 --> 0:16:36.880 Rob Hunt throwing guys to the ground, brand Rob Jones 0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:39.520 steamrolling guys to the ground. To Ron Armstead doing the 0:16:39.560 --> 0:16:42.840 same thing, Brandon Shell, Connor Williams down blocking defensive backs 0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:44.560 and put them on their backside. And we'll talk to 0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:47.520 some individuals. But man, whether it was playing head up, 0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:52.160 gap scheme, zone pulling, ceiling catching, climb, chipping, just across 0:16:52.200 --> 0:16:55.000 the board, man, the work, the work of the two 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:57.080 guards in this game was off the chart. Key block 0:16:57.160 --> 0:16:59.600 after key block. I'm writing these notes as we go. 0:16:59.720 --> 0:17:01.680 When I tell you that I could note almost every 0:17:01.680 --> 0:17:03.920 single play, I'm not gonna do it for time's sake. 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:06.240 But rep by rep, you're getting the same things I 0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:08.520 mentioned from the same guys over and over again. Fire 0:17:08.560 --> 0:17:11.159 off the ball, win the low man battle, get your 0:17:11.160 --> 0:17:14.560 good hand placement, drive through your lower half to transfer 0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:16.960 that power from your base up to your upper half, 0:17:17.240 --> 0:17:20.320 and displaced guys climbed to the second level while those 0:17:20.400 --> 0:17:23.080 dudes off. Turned to the proper leverage and just stay 0:17:23.160 --> 0:17:25.640 glued to your block. I used to have so many 0:17:25.640 --> 0:17:28.520 issues with how often Dolphins lineman fell off blocks. It's 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:30.119 not been the case this year. Man, It's It's a 0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:32.679 completely different ball game. This is a resume game for 0:17:32.800 --> 0:17:35.760 everybody on staff involved in the offensive line play and 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:39.080 certainly for the players. It was positively superb. Been watching 0:17:39.119 --> 0:17:43.159 Dolphins tapes since I don't know if I would call 0:17:43.200 --> 0:17:44.960 a better game, like some of those j g I 0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:47.360 games and twenty six team are pretty good, but man, 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:50.840 this across the board was so exceptional Toehron Armstead gets 0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:53.760 started early that first third down the Tyreek. It's one 0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:56.600 on one on an island against Myles Garrett and Tahron 0:17:56.720 --> 0:17:58.480 is the first guy off the ball and he just 0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:01.760 completely swallows up Garrett. Like Garrett rushed to the center 0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:04.119 chess play and he just like took him out of 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:07.040 the play. His landmark is perfect, his punch, his lean, 0:18:07.160 --> 0:18:10.080 his weight transfer. Then the anchor drop its teach tape 0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:12.360 time and time again. Then you get a seventeen yard 0:18:12.440 --> 0:18:15.840 run from Jeff Wilson and Rob Jones gets great placement. 0:18:15.880 --> 0:18:19.400 But then Tahron adds this chip on his route up 0:18:19.400 --> 0:18:21.800 to the second level and it's just like it's like 0:18:21.840 --> 0:18:23.800 almost when you click a lego into place, like it 0:18:23.920 --> 0:18:26.320 locked into place. Rob got the hands and just kind 0:18:26.320 --> 0:18:28.400 of threw him to the side. I cannot speak enough 0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:31.720 about how much to Ron just helps everybody in terms 0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:34.000 of pass pro but also the run game. He's helping 0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:36.520 in the run in the past getting pancakes. This dude 0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:39.200 is as advertised. And one last bit of appreciation here 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:41.080 that drive at the end of the first half. Garrett 0:18:41.160 --> 0:18:44.520 throws everything at Tahron on that drive in countless one 0:18:44.560 --> 0:18:47.439 on one situations. He goes speed, he goes speed to power, 0:18:47.640 --> 0:18:50.919 he spends back inside. Nothing worked, and they moved him 0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:52.480 to the other side of the formation. This guy's a 0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:56.520
