I 0:00:25.320 --> 0:00:27.960 am your host, Travis Wingfield, and I'm here to bring 0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:31.200 you your daily dose of Miami Dolphins football. And on 0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:34.680 today's show, a fourth straight loss drops Miami to one 0:00:34.680 --> 0:00:37.400 and four on the season, this time to the defending 0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:40.559 world champion Buccaneers. Will unpack it in its entirety with 0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:43.880 the takeaways, the individual performances, and we're gonna play some 0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:46.640 audio from the post game show with me, Seth Levitt 0:00:46.680 --> 0:00:49.479 and O J. McDuffie of the Fish Tank Podcast. I 0:00:49.520 --> 0:00:51.760 thought we had one of our best shows on Sunday 0:00:51.840 --> 0:00:54.800 after this game from the Baptist Health Studios inside the 0:00:54.800 --> 0:01:02.560 Baptist Health Training Complex. This is the Drivetime Podcast. We're 0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:04.839 gonna do the five takeaways here real quick, but first 0:01:04.840 --> 0:01:07.319 I want to focus on a couple of storylines I 0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:09.920 was looking at heading into this game. Number one, would 0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:11.720 there be a shake up along the offensive line? And 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:14.240 the answer to that was yes, And I'm very excited 0:01:14.240 --> 0:01:16.320 to get to the all twenty two and break down 0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:18.759 the performance of the offensive line in this game, because 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:20.919 initially I thought it was one of their better games 0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:23.440 as a unit as a whole, while at the tape 0:01:23.440 --> 0:01:26.160 speak for itself on that with Austin Jackson moving from 0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:29.080 left tackle to left guard, Liam Eikenberg going back to 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.800 left tackle where he played in the season opener, and 0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:34.399 then Jesse Davis over right tackle, with Greg Mant and 0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:37.520 Robert Hunt at their same positions as last week at 0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:40.640 center and right guard, respectively. Was also curious to get 0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:42.520 a look at the past rush with the dolphinsive team, 0:01:42.680 --> 0:01:44.560 especially when they went to a four man rush. Can 0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:47.400 you turn over Brady, can you hit Brady? Can you 0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:49.960 move Brady? I don't believe that went the way any 0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:51.760 of us hoped it would in this game. And then 0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:54.040 also would you find a big play on teams on 0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:56.840 special teams in that regard that also did not happen. 0:01:56.840 --> 0:01:58.280 So just a couple of things to point out there 0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:00.080 that I thought Miami had a chance to kind of 0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:02.840 makes some head weight in those departments and didn't go 0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:05.080 that way. And we lead this off with the takeaways 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:07.880 from this game. The Dolphins fall forty seven team to 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:11.240 the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And the first takeaway is what 0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:13.440 the heck is wrong with the defense. And let's actually 0:02:13.480 --> 0:02:15.960 play some audio here from Brian Flores and let him 0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:18.720 take us there first before I talk about it. No, 0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:21.640 I'm concerned. I mean, like we're out of sink, you know, 0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:26.079 in a lot of a lot of ways, um on defense, 0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:29.680 pass defense, pass rush. Um, you know, we're just we're just, 0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:33.160 you know, a little bit step behind. I would say, so, Uh, 0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:35.960 you know, we gotta make a lot of corrections, you 0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:39.920 know a lot of things we've gotta address, and you 0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:43.120 know we'll do that, and we've been doing that. Um, 0:02:43.280 --> 0:02:45.320 We've addressed some things, but we're not we're not seeing 0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:48.280 a production on on Sundays and really that's all that matters. 0:02:48.320 --> 0:02:50.720 So um, yeah, I would say we're we're a little 0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:53.080 bit out of sink, out of sink and a step 0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:56.079 behind there, says coach Flores. And the Dolphins are being 0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:59.680 outscored this season one fifty four to seventy nine opposing 0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:01.960 off senses. They're averaging around four hundred and forty two 0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:05.200 yards per game in our offense just five to forty 0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:08.480 five per game, almost double the output when you look 0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:10.240 at the last four games of the season when things 0:03:10.280 --> 0:03:12.000 kind of went off the rails four hundred forty two 0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:14.880 yards to Miami's two hundred forty five yards per game 0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:18.519 last and third down defense. The takeaway streak is no more, 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:21.200 no turnovers. In this game, Miami lost the turnover battle 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:24.720 two to zero to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And then 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.720 you hear Brian Flores talk about his concern there with 0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:29.600 the fact that the defense is out of sync and 0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:32.560 a step behind, and the practice work all the week 0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:35.560 long is not translating to Sundays just thinking about this 0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:38.560 out loud. Here is Xavian Howard and Byron Jones, who 0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:40.920 both were on the injury report this week and suited 0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:42.680 up and played, and good on them for getting themselves 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:44.960 out there and ready to play. But it wasn't good 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:46.640 for either of those guys in this game. And this 0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:49.839 Tampa Bay receiving corps is absolutely loaded. And that's another 0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:52.120 point we're gonna get to here later on the takeaways. 0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:54.880 But those guys didn't have their best game. The linebackers 0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:58.160 getting stuck on blocks, getting beaten coverage on running backs 0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:01.520 or tight ends or whoever the heck it was the 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:04.240 inability to get pressure on Brady, whatever the reason was, 0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:07.400 where we aren't seeing the Amiba defense or as much 0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:09.440 zero blitz or all the stuff that really helped this 0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:13.240 defense produce at a high level last year. Players, coaches, 0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:15.360 guys that you relied upon in the past, like an 0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:17.560 Eric Rowe, who had such a good two year run 0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:19.560 here with the Miami Dolphins, has now hit a speed 0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:21.480 bump here in a couple of games this year where 0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:23.200 he hasn't been the exact saying that he was a 0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:25.240 season ago. And that kind of brings me in to 0:04:25.320 --> 0:04:27.839 the point about the defensive backs in general. Not to 0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:31.359 pick on Eric Row, but that's where your biggest resource 0:04:31.400 --> 0:04:34.360 allocation is. And look at what the Bucks were able 0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:35.840 to do to you in the passing game, I mean, 0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:38.720 xaviing Howard gets a pay raise after an all Pro season. 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.240 Byron Jones is one of the highest paid cornerbacks in 0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:43.320 the league, cutting over in free agency after a five 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:46.279 year run with the Dallas Cowboys where he's fantastic for 0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:49.760 the Dallas Cowboys. You have Eric Rowe on a contract extension, 0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:52.400 Brandon Jones, a third round draft pick, Javon Hall in 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:54.880 the second round draft pick No. Begny a first round 0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:57.600 draft pick, Justin Coleman a free agent, Jason mccordy a 0:04:57.640 --> 0:04:59.839 free agent. Like that's where a lot of the resources 0:04:59.839 --> 0:05:03.039 have been allocated to. And if that's the class of 0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:05.240 your roster and the way this thing is designed, and 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:08.599 this is what happens, I mean, where do you go 0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:10.120 from there with it? They're gonna have to do some 0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:12.760 real soul searching and find out what the identity of 0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:15.320 this football team is because last year it was pressure defense, 0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:17.479 take the football away and put your foot on the 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:20.080 throat of the opponent defensively, and that by in part 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:22.640 helps both the special teams and the offense. But what 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:24.640 is the thing you're doing well right now? Because you're 0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:27.880 you know, perceived air quotes, best unit on the football 0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:31.000 team giving up forty five points of this offense, which 0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:33.000 is a great one. It's just not the way to 0:05:33.040 --> 0:05:35.520 go when you look at the last three times this defense. 0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:37.800 And I know last year wasn't this year's defense, but 0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:41.040 Buffalo this year thirty five nothing, Buffalo last year fifties, 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:45.440 now Tampa Bay seventeen. It's just not a good look 0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:47.400 for that defensive secondary. And they're gonna have to find 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:50.720 a way to play better and be competitive against these 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:54.040 top level teams and organizations because under Brian Flores through 0:05:54.080 --> 0:05:57.080 two years that this just didn't happen to the Miami Dolphins. 0:05:57.080 --> 0:05:59.440 We were used to it before he got here, with 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:03.719 big time opponents on prime time games or otherwise putting 0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:05.919 up a lobsize score on the Miami Dolphins, and that 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:09.039 just wasn't the case. And I don't think any of 0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:12.080 us expected that this season, and right now it's happening. 0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:13.760 So you've got to figure it out and get the 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:16.840 solution quick because this just cannot continue. Take Away number two, 0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:20.120 I mean, just shoot this moon to the season, and 0:06:20.320 --> 0:06:22.000 this shoot this season into the sun as far as 0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:23.960 you possibly can, because the first five games have been 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.080 about as bad as you could have drawn it up. 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.000 If the Dolphins don't get that win into England, that 0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:30.800 of course would be worse. But the general takeaways a 0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:33.960 continuation here of the first takeaway. Your two games this 0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:37.400 season against what I would consider to be the class 0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:39.800 of the league. I think Tampa Bay is the best 0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:41.200 team in the NFC, and I think Buffalo is the 0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:43.280 best team in the a f C. And of course 0:06:43.320 --> 0:06:46.200 you didn't have your quarterback for all but two possessions 0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:50.960 of that to contest, you know, continuation of those two games, 0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:54.040 the aggregate of those two games, and you lost those 0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:58.960 games by a combined I mean, that's just that's a 0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:02.360 tough pill to swallow. Oh and you know, four forty 0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:04.640 two yards per game to two forty five yards per game. 0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:07.640 We saw some not great body language in that second half. 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:10.000 We saw Jalen Waddle drop a pass that led to 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:12.600 a pick. Joe Kobe Brissette had some more mrs after 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.120 what was a very strong start for him in this game. 0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:17.920 Talk about the secondary having their struggles. Nick Needham fell 0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:20.040 down on a route and didn't see the ball going 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:21.880 right behind him and kind of jogged after the play. 0:07:21.920 --> 0:07:24.920 That's after exhabing Howard got beat in the slot where 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.679 the Bucks were able to dictate their matchup by moving 0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:31.640 Antonio Brown who X was traveling on across the formation 0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:34.040 and create favorable matchups for themselves, and that just hasn't 0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:36.400 happening on the other side of the ball. Jerome Baker 0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:39.000 having you know, not his best game in coverage against 0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:41.480 Geo Bernard or out wide on some stretch runs in 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:44.920 the areas of the game where speed and reactiveness and 0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:48.080 and quickness, the hallmarks to his game. It's not there 0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:49.920 for him right now either. So I just look at 0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:52.520 so many things, like Brian Flora has mentioned, out of seeing, 0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:56.120 out of sorts, It's just so many things that are 0:07:56.120 --> 0:08:00.000 contributing to this this effort that's just not good enough 0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:02.120 right now. And it's why you you fall behind five 0:08:02.200 --> 0:08:04.560 hundred fifty eight yards to three hundred one yards in 0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:06.640 the offense. That's why your third downs or eight for 0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:08.880 eleven for Tampa Bay two for seven from Miami. It's 0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:12.160 why your time of possessions thirty seven oh seven to three. 0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:14.440 That's why your offense has three hundred ten yards, two 0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:17.080 hundred three yards two three hundred and thirty yards two 0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:19.680 dred and sixteen yards two hundred and fifty nine yards. 0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:22.720 How do they pull us together? That's the question, and 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:26.840 that takeaway takes us into our third takeaway. And Jacoby 0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:29.320 Brissett alluded to this in his postgame press conference that 0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:32.400 he believes that they are building offensively, and Brian Flores 0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:34.600 mentioned in his press conference as well. I won't play 0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:37.160 the audio for you, guys, but they both said they're showing, 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:40.080 you know, some progress in terms of building offensively, I 0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:42.439 thought we all we all can agree. We saw that. Shoot, 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:44.280 this was the second highest yard and output for the 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:46.760 Dolphins this season, and the majority of that came early 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:49.000 in the game when they were competitive, including an eight 0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:51.520 seven yard drive to pull within one score and you 0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:53.640 get a third and tent from the defense to possibly 0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:55.360 get a stop and get the ball back and get 0:08:55.400 --> 0:08:57.640 the ball back to your offense. That would have been 0:08:57.640 --> 0:09:00.559 fun to see how the offense responded and build momentum. 0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:03.240 But again, complimentary football is just not there with the 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:06.120 third takeaway as signs of life for the offense, but 0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:10.080 they and the entire team need a complementary effort because 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:12.480 it just has not happened one single time this year 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:15.680 hasn't happened one time. But back to the signs of 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:18.720 life offensive line shuffle. I thought Austin Jackson and I 0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:21.839 talked about this. I thought he had traits that could 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:24.560 excel at the left guard position. There were certain traits 0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:26.120 that you might worry about, and one of those is 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:28.320 the sand in the pants, especially against a pass rusher 0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:31.360 like a Vita Vea. But Vita Vea didn't wreck this game. 0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:33.280 I thought Austin Jackson played well in the area. In 0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:35.200 that area also saw him put some bodies on the 0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:38.360 ground and Leam Eichenberg I thought was better at left 0:09:38.360 --> 0:09:41.160 tackle and just the offensive line in general. I agree 0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:44.240 with Brian Flores's assessment. Initially I thought it was okay, 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:45.400 but I have to go back and look at the 0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:47.600 tape to get a better idea of it. But if 0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:50.480 that offensive line can continue to build off of that, 0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:52.640 and this is maybe you know, if they get better 0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:54.760 every week, If this is the worst we see them, 0:09:54.800 --> 0:09:56.720 that could be a good sign of life going forward. 0:09:56.960 --> 0:09:59.160 How about the I mean just real quick to finish 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:01.480 that point. The Bucks got after them in the second half, 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:04.120 And that's where the complimentary component comes into this, right, 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:06.760 because these units have to help each other out because 0:10:06.800 --> 0:10:09.560 one side is just carrying way too much of the 0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:12.160 load all season long. Because the Bucks can now pin 0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:14.480 their ears back and rush the passer and play against 0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:17.120 a one dimensional offense, which their run defense kind of 0:10:17.160 --> 0:10:21.400 does that for them. But if you can stay more 0:10:21.440 --> 0:10:24.360 you know, balanced, and not have to be so aggressive 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:26.960 when the scoreboards more in your favor, then the offense 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:28.760 can get to their full compliment that way and just 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.440 be more creative and more flexible, and the Dolphins just 0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:33.959 have killed themselves this year with not being able to 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:36.400 stay complimentary, whether it's the offense not helping the defense 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.160 vice versa, and how special teams makes into that all 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:41.360 those things are not coming together. But back to the 0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:43.600 things I liked. I liked early on some of the 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:45.280 play calls and really the course of the game for 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:47.840 the sequencing of the offense. They ran the Bucks out 0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:49.480 of some zones and took some of the short stuff 0:10:49.520 --> 0:10:53.120 to get themselves into manageable situations to create shot plays, 0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:56.920 to stay on schedule, to give yourself the opportunity to 0:10:57.000 --> 0:10:59.040 get those shot plays. I like the way they involved 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:02.239 the backs in the passing game. Myles Gaskin had a 0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:05.199 game high for Miami here ten targets and it was 0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:07.560 the most catches ever by a Dolphins running back because 0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:09.880 he caught a ton of them for seventy four yards 0:11:09.920 --> 0:11:11.880 and two touchdowns. So good on them for a team 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.280 that loves to blitz so aggressively and come after the 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:18.280 quarterback and really at times, you know, blitz the running 0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:19.719 back in a way that forces him to stay in 0:11:19.760 --> 0:11:22.520 pass protection for Miami to go after that. You know, 0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:25.200 there's always a vulnerability when you commit guys in the blitz. 0:11:25.400 --> 0:11:28.280 That was the vulnerability. And they found Miles Gaskins successfully 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:30.800 throughout the course of this game, especially on that second 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:33.680 touchdown pass against that Bucks blitz where they just sent 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:36.640 him to where the blitzer is vacated. Took advantage of 0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:39.040 that vacated space and he has choose taking the blitz 0:11:39.080 --> 0:11:40.880 pick up and gets out into the route and the 0:11:40.880 --> 0:11:43.360 ball almost missed him short, but he catches it gets 0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:45.680 into the end zone. I liked that with a sequence 0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:48.480 of the other Gaskin touchdown pass, the wheel route that 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:51.640 goes based upon what we talked about earlier with chasing 0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:53.319 the Bucks out of some of that zone coverage, and 0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:56.200 you see Richard Sherman's gonna play that zone turn get 0:11:56.240 --> 0:11:58.040 his butt to the sideline, and I the quarterback, and 0:11:58.040 --> 0:12:00.840 play it the entire way. You take enough underneath stuff 0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:03.120 and maybe you push him off with a takeoff route 0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:04.920 or a post route or a corner route, and then 0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:07.120 you run the running back wheel route in behind that, 0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:09.880 and if that linebacker jumps the flat route, then you 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:11.960 have a wide open pass down the field. And that's 0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:14.600 exactly what happened with Miles Gaskin. On that big touchdown 0:12:14.800 --> 0:12:16.440 in the vacated zones. So I thought that was a 0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:19.439 good design and some good sequencing there. And then finally 0:12:19.480 --> 0:12:21.320 just the fact that we saw guys catching the ball 0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:23.480 on the move on the miles gas can touchdown, run 0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:25.400 some of the crossing routes to these guys that made 0:12:25.400 --> 0:12:27.240 big plays after the catch. We saw a Wattle do 0:12:27.280 --> 0:12:29.480 it once again in this game. We saw a Wattle 0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:32.480 drop a pass interference call because what does he do. 0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:35.720 He creates conflict for the defense, and conflict can create panic, 0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:39.160 and panic can create grabbing and we saw plenty of that, 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:41.560 especially on a third and one play later in the 0:12:41.559 --> 0:12:44.800 game where you get the defense into an aggressive look 0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:46.920 that wants to come after your offense on that third 0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:48.360 and short because they want to sell out and stop 0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:49.920 the run, right, They want to sell out and stop 0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:52.120 the possible under route or the flat route or the 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:54.120 quick hook up or the stuff that they think you're 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:56.880 gonna run to just move the chains. That sometimes creates 0:12:56.920 --> 0:12:59.040 an opportunity for your best shot plays in the entire 0:12:59.080 --> 0:13:01.720 game because their vote r bole in that area, because 0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:04.160 they don't believe you're gonna accept the risk that goes 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:06.960 with going deep down the field. That could put you 0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:09.560 in a fourth down situation if you don't execute, but 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:12.560 that can oftentimes be the best opportunity to get some 0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:15.120 big plays. In Miami throws a third and one pass 0:13:15.200 --> 0:13:18.119 into the end zone from the seventeen yard line past interference. 0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:19.520 A couple of plays later, you're in the end zone 0:13:19.520 --> 0:13:21.520 for a touchdown. So I like that look there, And 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:24.000 I also found it interesting to finish this point here 0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:27.040 in the third takeaway when Jacoby was asked postgame about 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:31.360 the UH comment mentioned on the CBS broadcast from Tony 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:35.000 Romo about how he said they streamlined the play calling 0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:38.600 this week with George Godzi relaying the play into Jacoby 0:13:38.679 --> 0:13:41.840 Brissette's helmet, which would of course bypassed Charlie Fry, who 0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:43.439 used to get the call and then take it into 0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:46.200 the quarterback. And Brissette confirmed that and said that it 0:13:46.320 --> 0:13:48.840 was because they were hoping or wanted to get some 0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:51.480 more priest snap motion, which took some more time and 0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:54.040 gave them less time to make that relaying communication. So 0:13:54.120 --> 0:13:56.640 the positives of that, to me, motion is great because 0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:58.960 it gives you pre snap indicators. It gives you a 0:13:59.000 --> 0:14:00.920 brochure of what the de fence might be doing, or 0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:02.880 how they might adjust to your movement. It gives you 0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:05.440 an opportunity to see how they react, whether a certain 0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:07.880 guys blitzing, whether a safety rolls to show you the 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:10.520 coverage or he caps a defensive back to show that 0:14:10.520 --> 0:14:12.520 defensive back is gonna come on the blitz. And it 0:14:12.559 --> 0:14:15.719 creates more chances for BUS because the more motion can 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:18.920 create more communication to pass off. Okay, you're going with 0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:20.880 him over there, I got this guy. We're gonna you're 0:14:20.920 --> 0:14:22.560 gonna take first man to the point you're taking the 0:14:22.560 --> 0:14:25.000 inside man like we're gonna go. We're gonna Banjoe this thing. 0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:27.600 Whatever the case may be, they have to communicate motion, 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:30.680 so creates more chances for BUS. Now the con I 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:32.960 like the fact that Charlie Fry can take things that 0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:35.240 he sees or perceives and gives it to the quarterback 0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:37.760 there at the last minute before the play call. That's 0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:41.080 certainly a pro And both items do have their pros 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:43.320 to them. I'll be curious see if Miami goes back 0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:45.440 to that way or continues it this way, or if 0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:47.760 it's a combination of the two based upon their opponent. 0:14:47.760 --> 0:14:50.360 But I thought that was very interesting and the more 0:14:50.480 --> 0:14:53.680 motion we saw, I thought the Dolphins best offensive production 0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:56.320 this season is at a direct correlation. Probably not, but 0:14:56.320 --> 0:14:58.600 there's probably something there as well. Our next takeaway and 0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:01.280 these are gonna be quick here. Number four the punting game, Like, 0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:03.640 what the hell was that eight and a half yards 0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:06.960 average punt? That's lower than some teams gross average. Right now, 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:09.720 I mean small potatoes in a game and a season 0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:11.960 that's been full of despair so far, but that's on 0:15:12.080 --> 0:15:13.720 my radar. Those punts were going straight up in the 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:16.600 air and not covering much distance, and special teams just 0:15:17.160 --> 0:15:19.000 was a calling card. And right now it hasn't been. 0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:21.040 Number five, And I know you don't want to hear this, 0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:23.280 but there is still time left in this season, and 0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:25.760 nothing has changed that was out there before this game. 0:15:26.000 --> 0:15:27.440 This was always gonna be a tough team to be 0:15:27.600 --> 0:15:29.680 on the road in their house. But now you're in 0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:31.600 the position that you're in, it's time to figure out 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:39.200 how to crawl the hell out of this thing. Because Jags, Falcons, Bills, Texans, Ravens, Jets, Panthers, Giants, Saints, Titans, Patriots, 0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:41.920 that's what's ahead of you before another long off season, 0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:45.240 which we all despise as football fans, right, I want 0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:47.640 football here all the time, even when the Dolphins aren't 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:49.280 playing well. I love this time of year way more 0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:51.480 than any other time of year because you basically have 0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:54.560 entertainment every single night. It's the best. And it starts 0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:56.840 next week for the Miami Dolphins in London against the 0:15:56.920 --> 0:16:00.440 Jacksonville Jaguars. Get that, damn win man, get that, am win. 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:04.080 And I only noted two individuals here in the individual 0:16:04.080 --> 0:16:05.760 portion of the podcast, and we'll get to more of 0:16:05.760 --> 0:16:08.320 that in the All twenty two podcast tomorrow for you guys. 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:10.960 But I just put down Miles Gaskin and Mike get Sicky, 0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:13.680 and also Jacoby Brissette. But Gaskin for the way he 0:16:13.720 --> 0:16:16.080 caught the ball and ran with it afterwards. I continue 0:16:16.120 --> 0:16:18.800 to believe that's his best trade almost that James White, 0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:21.200 Mold and Mike get Sicky just finding ways to create 0:16:21.240 --> 0:16:24.600 space off leverage and catching passes and generating mismatches. He 0:16:24.600 --> 0:16:27.320 caught a third down pass against Joe try on Shioika. 0:16:27.400 --> 0:16:29.960 The defensive event out of you, dub that's having a 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:33.560 fantastic year. Defense event slash outside linebacker if you find 0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:35.920 him in coverage on Mike Gasicky. That's a matchup you 0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:37.800 like nothing against Joe because I think he's gonna be 0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:40.400 a possible deep defensive rookie of the year, but that's 0:16:40.440 --> 0:16:42.520 just not a good matchup for him. And I like 0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:45.360 the way that Gaskin, or rather Mike Asicki was able 0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:47.600 to approach that. And then Jacoby had some good moments 0:16:47.640 --> 0:16:49.840 as well in this game. I would like to see 0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:52.200 him hit the past to waddle, even though it was 0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:54.400 a pick play called on Mike. I just you gotta 0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:56.600 hit those types of throws. And good on him for 0:16:56.680 --> 0:16:59.160 fighting through the hamstring. That was a real, real veteran, 0:16:59.240 --> 0:17:01.560 real you know, professional move there from Jacoby to fight 0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:04.200 through a hamstring injury and be out there for his teammates. 0:17:04.400 --> 0:17:07.000 All Right, I loved our first two postgame show segments today, 0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:08.240 so I'm gonna go ahead and play those for you 0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:12.440 guys on the other side.

I am Travis Wingfield. I am 0:18:19.680 --> 0:18:22.640 joined by Seth Levitt and o J. McDuffie, and it's 0:18:22.680 --> 0:18:26.480 four straight losses now for your Miami Dolphins and juice 0:18:26.600 --> 0:18:28.960 that season opening wins. Shure, it feels like a decade ago, 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.360 doesn't it worth a decade ago, wasn't it. I mean 0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:35.920 it seemed like, uh mean, you had a good feeling, man, 0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:37.720 coming off of that one with a win, no matter 0:18:37.760 --> 0:18:42.440 how ugly it was, you know. But at the same time, though, man, 0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:45.199 you it was it was a long time ago. And 0:18:45.200 --> 0:18:48.040 then when you know, when you start compiling losses, you know, 0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:51.400 it seems like it's even further away. Man. So I'll 0:18:51.440 --> 0:18:54.400 just you know, another tough one today, man, another tough 0:18:54.480 --> 0:18:57.200 one as we experienced last week in the last four weeks, 0:18:57.520 --> 0:18:59.440 you know, as Dolphins and as you know, as were 0:18:59.640 --> 0:19:02.800 coming studio to try to do a show. Um, but 0:19:02.920 --> 0:19:06.520 you know that that that one win was it this year? 0:19:07.640 --> 0:19:09.480 It wasn't this year. I'm not even sure it was 0:19:09.520 --> 0:19:11.760 about a month ago. As we move into mid October 0:19:11.800 --> 0:19:14.000 here in the Dolphins will head to London next week 0:19:14.280 --> 0:19:16.720 at one and four to face the Jacksonville Jaguars. And 0:19:16.720 --> 0:19:18.640 I know last week Stathew joked a little bit about 0:19:18.640 --> 0:19:21.080 maybe turning the pay We talked about London already. We 0:19:21.119 --> 0:19:22.800 have to wait for where you come on, je What 0:19:22.840 --> 0:19:27.160 do you think when I'm on London already? Man? Wait, wait, 0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:33.080 hold on. You were not happy about me doing that. 0:19:33.160 --> 0:19:35.159 I had Joe Rose and j T told me they 0:19:35.160 --> 0:19:37.600 were going to call into the show last week because 0:19:37.600 --> 0:19:39.960 I was ready to move on, and now you're you're 0:19:39.960 --> 0:19:42.359 ready to turn You know, if I talk about this game, seth, 0:19:42.480 --> 0:19:44.480 I think I was this close as you can, you know, 0:19:44.520 --> 0:19:46.720 to get fired last week and I started talking about 0:19:46.720 --> 0:19:49.119 this game like I started talking about will not be 0:19:49.200 --> 0:19:51.440 walking in the studio this time? Man? Yeah he's still 0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:55.679 on Tampa. Yeah goodness, But yeah, man, you know we 0:19:55.760 --> 0:19:57.920 have to talk about this obviously. Man. But I don't 0:19:57.920 --> 0:20:00.359 know where to even start. Travis, I'm glad you're driving 0:20:00.359 --> 0:20:03.879 this show because you know the I know where I 0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:06.840 will start, the bad start, the bad game that mean 0:20:06.960 --> 0:20:09.080 great starting. And the rest of this game was just 0:20:09.160 --> 0:20:11.600 so frustrating, man, you know, And as a fan, I 0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:15.160 sat here and look, I have zero notes, had really 0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:17.679 nothing really right now, you know what I mean. I 0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:20.040 just I was trying to watch and absorb and listen. 0:20:20.520 --> 0:20:22.960 But I'm gonna tell you, man, it each week is 0:20:22.960 --> 0:20:25.640 getting more and more frustrating. It does take a toll 0:20:25.640 --> 0:20:27.720 on you at some point, just as as radio host 0:20:27.760 --> 0:20:29.199 and as fans of this team and people that care 0:20:29.200 --> 0:20:31.160 about this team. And I'll come back to you, Juice 0:20:31.200 --> 0:20:32.720 here a little bit talk about how that might be 0:20:32.760 --> 0:20:34.920 for the players in terms of you know, they talked 0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:36.320 about on the on the post game show there a 0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:39.080 little bit right afterwards there with with JT and the boys, 0:20:39.119 --> 0:20:41.480 just about the conference of the team after four straight 0:20:41.520 --> 0:20:43.520 losses and where you go from here. But I'll get 0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:45.040 to that second, because Seth, you had a point. I 0:20:45.080 --> 0:20:46.879 want to go to you here real quick, my man, Well, 0:20:47.080 --> 0:20:49.280 what I'm most disappointed by? And that was the word 0:20:49.280 --> 0:20:51.840 they used, right, Joe, Jimmy and JT. They talked. They 0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:54.800 talked about being disappointed because I think the expectations were 0:20:55.080 --> 0:20:56.879 a lot higher for this team. We knew it was 0:20:56.880 --> 0:20:59.680 a tough schedule to start. I don't think one in 0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:02.639 four or is what anybody expected. Certainly what isn't what 0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:06.439 anybody wanted. But the defense fellas the defense is what 0:21:06.680 --> 0:21:09.800 that that's our money maker was supposed to be. We 0:21:09.960 --> 0:21:12.000 just talked about this. If you look at the last 0:21:12.119 --> 0:21:16.160 four games, let's talk about the losing street. Four straight losses. 0:21:16.440 --> 0:21:19.200 They're giving up thirty four point five points a game. 0:21:19.480 --> 0:21:22.359 It's crazy. You can't if your offense is fired, you're 0:21:22.400 --> 0:21:24.720 gonna struggle. Given up thirty four and a half points 0:21:24.720 --> 0:21:26.880 a game, How in the world are you gonna survive 0:21:27.119 --> 0:21:30.200 with this offense, with the with an offensive line that 0:21:30.160 --> 0:21:32.000 had been struggling, which I did think stepped up their 0:21:32.000 --> 0:21:34.240 game today. And we'll talk about that with the number 0:21:34.280 --> 0:21:37.359 two quarterback. Regardless of what Jacoby wants to say. Who again, 0:21:37.520 --> 0:21:40.200 valiant effort by Jacoby fought through injury. I thought he 0:21:40.280 --> 0:21:42.520 kept fighting to the bitter end there. But how in 0:21:42.560 --> 0:21:44.240 the world can you give up thirty four and a 0:21:44.280 --> 0:21:46.119 half points per game. I don't care who's on the 0:21:46.160 --> 0:21:49.400 other side, right And I'll tell you what you look at, 0:21:49.440 --> 0:21:51.800 saith is you know the amazziness. You know, we're up 0:21:51.800 --> 0:21:53.840 ten to seven in the first then we give up 0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:57.480 seventeen unanswered in the second quarter. We have been a 0:21:58.240 --> 0:21:59.760 what do you do to fix that? That's a that's 0:21:59.760 --> 0:22:02.280 a question, man, because you know, usually it's a halftime 0:22:02.320 --> 0:22:04.439 adjustment that you make. But look at these great teams. 0:22:04.600 --> 0:22:07.800 When you got a great team with Tom Brady Bruce 0:22:07.880 --> 0:22:11.040 Arians Byron Leftwich. You know, they see what we're doing 0:22:11.040 --> 0:22:13.480 in that first quarter, you know, and make you know 0:22:13.520 --> 0:22:15.760 their adjustments, but we don't seem to be doing the 0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:19.040 same thing. And it's it's pretty it's pretty sad considering 0:22:19.040 --> 0:22:20.960 the offense played pretty well in that first quarter and 0:22:20.960 --> 0:22:23.280 then the defense we're out there, you know, and just 0:22:23.400 --> 0:22:26.320 continue to lay an egg um dropping, giving up forty 0:22:26.320 --> 0:22:28.520 five points in this in this league over almost five 0:22:28.920 --> 0:22:32.119 sixty yards total offense. Son heard of that supposed to 0:22:32.160 --> 0:22:34.520 happen so heard of in this league? Do you I mean, 0:22:34.840 --> 0:22:37.280 I'm not gonna spending spend a positive here, but do 0:22:37.359 --> 0:22:39.720 you give them any credit for starting games that fast? 0:22:39.800 --> 0:22:42.440 What happens? What changes in the first part the first 0:22:42.480 --> 0:22:44.600 quarter of the game, when Miami comes out like a 0:22:44.640 --> 0:22:46.600 house on fire and goes up four teens up on 0:22:46.600 --> 0:22:48.119 the Raiders comes out here and gets on top of 0:22:48.160 --> 0:22:51.320 the defending world champion Buccaneers, and you know earlier in 0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:52.920 the season as well, and now you come around the 0:22:52.960 --> 0:22:56.120 second quarter and things just start to avalanche. Is it 0:22:56.160 --> 0:22:58.479 is a good coaching early on with bad adjustments? Is 0:22:58.520 --> 0:23:00.640 what's what plays into that juice? Well, you know, most 0:23:00.640 --> 0:23:02.639 teams don't know what you're gonna come with at the beginning, 0:23:02.640 --> 0:23:05.160 which is normal, and so you might get some Each 0:23:05.200 --> 0:23:07.240 team probably scored in the first drive or at least, 0:23:07.440 --> 0:23:09.640 you know, within the first couple of drives, because then 0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:12.119 you know, great teams make adjustments. All right, here's what 0:23:12.160 --> 0:23:14.360 they're doing. Now, Now we just make the adjustment. They're 0:23:14.359 --> 0:23:16.480 trying to get the ball to water, trying to run miles, 0:23:16.480 --> 0:23:19.000 whatever we're trying to do. And so both teams should 0:23:19.040 --> 0:23:21.919 have that. But we look at a team, I mean, honestly, 0:23:21.960 --> 0:23:24.280 let's look at Tampa and break them down. And when 0:23:24.280 --> 0:23:27.160 you look at a team that has that many weapons, 0:23:27.640 --> 0:23:31.159 that many playmakers, how do you game plan that? Who 0:23:31.160 --> 0:23:33.320 do you take away? I heard in the pregame show, 0:23:33.359 --> 0:23:37.560 heard uh Dono and Um Channing talking about it. You know, 0:23:37.560 --> 0:23:39.800 we've got two great cover corners. But by the way, 0:23:39.840 --> 0:23:42.359 one of them did not did not have the best 0:23:42.359 --> 0:23:44.679 game today, Neither one of them. Then, really, I mean, 0:23:44.680 --> 0:23:46.439 all the all the receivers had a had a hell 0:23:46.480 --> 0:23:48.840 of a day, seemed like. But when you got you know, 0:23:48.880 --> 0:23:51.040 when you got Antonio Brown and Mike Evans and Chris 0:23:51.040 --> 0:23:53.560 God went out there, pick your poison on who you're 0:23:53.560 --> 0:23:56.119 gonna try to take away you know, I think we're 0:23:57.240 --> 0:23:59.159 I think, well, I think we're in manage first, and 0:23:59.160 --> 0:24:01.359 then I think towards the we even tried zone that. 0:24:01.520 --> 0:24:03.200 You know, you can't play Tim Brady with those guys 0:24:03.200 --> 0:24:05.320 in zone no, you know, no grounk today. And they 0:24:05.320 --> 0:24:06.880 didn't they didn't care that. I don't think they even 0:24:06.920 --> 0:24:08.600 targeted the tight end. The whole game with the hour 0:24:08.720 --> 0:24:11.120 had a couple maybe, you know. So it just tells 0:24:11.119 --> 0:24:14.679 you for Net was a grown man, you know, dragging 0:24:14.720 --> 0:24:17.000 us down. So there's a lot of things that you 0:24:17.000 --> 0:24:19.360 know when you look at that Tampa offense. I mean 0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:21.680 they're back in stride like they were, you know when 0:24:21.680 --> 0:24:23.600 they went on that run towards the end of last year. 0:24:24.040 --> 0:24:26.240 I would just like to see us And you said 0:24:26.280 --> 0:24:28.240 it best and you're talking about with j T. Now 0:24:28.280 --> 0:24:30.920 we're talking about step. You said it in the middle 0:24:30.960 --> 0:24:33.480 of I think the third quarter. Maybe the body language 0:24:33.480 --> 0:24:36.520 is just awful. They were defeated way early, you know, 0:24:36.640 --> 0:24:39.920 and that that's that's tough when you got your leaders 0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:41.600 being that way. But on both sides of the ball, 0:24:42.600 --> 0:24:44.040 there's there's not a hull lot to take away from 0:24:44.040 --> 0:24:46.320 this that you look at positively going forward until next week, 0:24:46.320 --> 0:24:48.320 and I guess the idea that too could be back 0:24:48.320 --> 0:24:50.320 in return for that game. But there's a whole other 0:24:50.400 --> 0:24:52.159 myriad of issues that has to get ironed out by 0:24:52.160 --> 0:24:54.480 that point because O J. You talked about the fact 0:24:54.560 --> 0:24:57.359 that pick your poison with these receivers, But isn't that 0:24:57.400 --> 0:25:00.440 almost an indictment of the entire program because all your 0:25:00.480 --> 0:25:03.000 money and your draft picks, at least the majority of 0:25:03.080 --> 0:25:05.879 them have gone into that defensive secondary. So if you 0:25:05.880 --> 0:25:07.560 want to build a defense and a team for the 0:25:07.600 --> 0:25:09.600 modern era of the National Football League, that has to 0:25:09.640 --> 0:25:12.280 slow down these thirty point per game juggernauts like a 0:25:12.359 --> 0:25:14.640 Kansas City or a Buffalo or a Tampa Bay. You're 0:25:14.640 --> 0:25:16.320 gonna have to compete with those kind of guys if 0:25:16.320 --> 0:25:17.840 you want to get to where you ultimately want to go. 0:25:18.200 --> 0:25:20.840 And what more can you do besides extending your all 0:25:20.840 --> 0:25:24.000 pro cornerback, giving a big free agent contract to Byron 0:25:24.040 --> 0:25:26.200 Jones who was all pro level his first five years 0:25:26.240 --> 0:25:29.040 in Dallas, spending two draft picks on safeties and Javon 0:25:29.160 --> 0:25:31.080 halland and Brandon Jones. I mean, the list goes on 0:25:31.119 --> 0:25:32.760 and on and on. First round draft pick on no 0:25:32.960 --> 0:25:36.480 egonogamy and you drop this out there against Buffalo and 0:25:36.680 --> 0:25:38.679 Tampa Bay this year, which I think to me is 0:25:38.720 --> 0:25:40.720 the class of the Dolphins schedule this year and really 0:25:40.920 --> 0:25:44.440 the class with both those squads. You're talking about an 0:25:44.440 --> 0:25:48.280 eighty to seventeen point eight to seventeen deficit for Miami. 0:25:48.320 --> 0:25:51.359 I mean, you're nowhere close to these top level teams, 0:25:51.359 --> 0:25:53.040 and I just it makes me question, where do you 0:25:53.080 --> 0:25:56.800 go from here? Because where's the upside? Where's the tournament? Right? 0:25:56.800 --> 0:25:59.040 You know, and that's all you messu you you really start, 0:25:59.280 --> 0:26:02.320 you mess yourself first of all, first against Buffalo with 0:26:02.320 --> 0:26:04.520 within your within your division, you know, that's what you 0:26:04.600 --> 0:26:06.760 usually draft against. You know, you go get the dvs. 0:26:06.800 --> 0:26:08.639 You need to have a nice running attack, I mean 0:26:08.680 --> 0:26:11.160 past attack, you know, guys up front to stop to run, 0:26:11.240 --> 0:26:13.359 guys that can actually spy, a guy like Josh Allen, 0:26:13.720 --> 0:26:15.199 you know, and then you figure out, you know, how 0:26:15.280 --> 0:26:17.560 to beat the Tampa Bays later. But the way we 0:26:17.600 --> 0:26:20.240 match up, which we don't very well, it seems like 0:26:20.240 --> 0:26:23.359 what people is, it's it's it's frustrating. So going from here, 0:26:24.119 --> 0:26:25.440 I think a lot of guys, you know, I think 0:26:25.480 --> 0:26:27.879 a lot of guys. It's weird when the team's not 0:26:27.960 --> 0:26:29.960 playing well. Some guys look at in the mirrors. I 0:26:30.000 --> 0:26:32.520 played well today and other guys will not. I think, 0:26:32.640 --> 0:26:34.919 once again, like we talked about last week, everybody's look 0:26:34.960 --> 0:26:36.280 in the mirror and said we didn't. None of us 0:26:36.320 --> 0:26:39.000 play well again. Even Miles Gaskin, who's gonna be out 0:26:39.000 --> 0:26:40.520 there working hard again, had a heck of a game, 0:26:40.920 --> 0:26:42.800 you know, and he might he could probably sit there 0:26:42.800 --> 0:26:44.600 and toot his own horn a little bit. But as 0:26:44.600 --> 0:26:46.879 a team, as a whole, you know, there's there was 0:26:46.960 --> 0:26:49.919 nothing impressive again today, you know, I mean it was. 0:26:51.119 --> 0:26:53.520 I mean, it's it's almost like groundholl Day from last week. 0:26:53.680 --> 0:26:56.000 Definitely for the Buffalo game, it certainly was. And it's 0:26:56.040 --> 0:26:57.520 I mean not for lack of try and we just 0:26:57.520 --> 0:27:00.480 see an offensive line shake up. I thought early on Juice, 0:27:00.520 --> 0:27:03.399 there was something to the fact that we talked about 0:27:03.400 --> 0:27:04.960 this last couple of weeks, right, we wanted to see 0:27:05.000 --> 0:27:07.280 more vertical outs out of the offense in terms of 0:27:07.320 --> 0:27:10.600 getting guys running upfield around crossing routes supposed to always 0:27:10.600 --> 0:27:12.399 coming back to the quarterback, and that was how the 0:27:12.400 --> 0:27:14.800 offense was successful there early on the Wheel route to 0:27:14.840 --> 0:27:17.000 Miles Gascon. I thought was a brilliant call to get 0:27:17.000 --> 0:27:19.280 a big touchdown there and one of two touchdown passes 0:27:19.280 --> 0:27:22.320 to Miles Gascon. But just other than that seth, I mean, 0:27:22.400 --> 0:27:25.640 we talked about the offensive line shake up. I guess 0:27:25.280 --> 0:27:27.720 it got a little bit better and the offense had 0:27:27.720 --> 0:27:29.159 more success, and I want to say it got a 0:27:29.200 --> 0:27:31.280 lot better. I really am gonna say that. And I 0:27:31.359 --> 0:27:33.720 know that maybe it's not reflected in seventeen points or 0:27:33.760 --> 0:27:36.359 what have you, but for the last two weeks, I 0:27:36.400 --> 0:27:38.199 did not think they lined up and looked like an 0:27:38.280 --> 0:27:41.320 NFL football team on that offensive front. Okay, I mean, 0:27:41.520 --> 0:27:44.560 you know how Jacobe said made made it through the 0:27:44.600 --> 0:27:47.520 three weeks that he did unscathed, and really, you know, 0:27:47.600 --> 0:27:49.919 just to pulled hamstring. You can think about what happened today. 0:27:50.440 --> 0:27:52.040 Those guys got up there and they held their own 0:27:52.080 --> 0:27:54.840 against all I heard. I listened to Drive Time, I 0:27:54.920 --> 0:27:56.960 listened to every other mediu member down here. All you 0:27:57.080 --> 0:27:59.520 heard about was how the Bucks had one of the 0:27:59.560 --> 0:28:03.159 best front seven's in the entire National Football League and 0:28:03.160 --> 0:28:05.760 that they were beat up in the secondary. The offensive 0:28:05.800 --> 0:28:08.440 line held up. Okay, they there there was some pressure 0:28:08.600 --> 0:28:11.080 they gave up a few sacks. Really interesting that you 0:28:11.160 --> 0:28:14.680 flip flop Bikenberg and Jackson and they look like different players. Yes, 0:28:14.720 --> 0:28:16.560 there were some missus. It's gonna be real easy for 0:28:16.600 --> 0:28:18.639 the guys on Twitter to go ahead and throw up 0:28:18.680 --> 0:28:21.159 the one you know somebody with. That's gonna happen when 0:28:21.200 --> 0:28:23.639 you're playing guys who are really good football players. But 0:28:23.720 --> 0:28:27.040 I think overall, they did enough to give this offensive 0:28:27.160 --> 0:28:29.720 opportunity to be effective, and we saw that early on. 0:28:30.080 --> 0:28:32.480 I don't know what happened later in the game. Maybe 0:28:32.480 --> 0:28:34.679 the hamstrings started catching up to him. Drew some of 0:28:34.680 --> 0:28:36.879 those throws were getting more and more off target, and 0:28:36.920 --> 0:28:39.160 the biggest thing that we all talked about, we thought 0:28:39.280 --> 0:28:42.120 we were gonna see more of it today, although DeVante 0:28:42.200 --> 0:28:46.160 Parker being down very disappointing does not help at all. 0:28:47.080 --> 0:28:48.960 I don't even want to get into that yet. But 0:28:49.040 --> 0:28:51.600 with the guys that were there, I just didn't see 0:28:51.600 --> 0:28:53.280 them go down the field enough, and when they did, 0:28:53.320 --> 0:28:54.959 they didn't seem to hit him. Yes, there were more 0:28:54.960 --> 0:28:58.360 explosive plays, Yes we had some ten fifty yarders, but 0:28:58.760 --> 0:29:03.000 when you see a team throwing yard passes over and 0:29:03.080 --> 0:29:05.680 over and over again, I'm not saying we have Tom 0:29:05.680 --> 0:29:07.640 Brady back there, but you've got to take more shots 0:29:07.640 --> 0:29:10.160 down the field, don't you. You talk about the well, 0:29:10.240 --> 0:29:11.920 let's come back and talk about that here in just 0:29:11.960 --> 0:29:14.720 a second. Because you talk about the offensive line, you know, 0:29:14.760 --> 0:29:17.480 having kind of a a worst second part of the game. 0:29:17.520 --> 0:29:19.200 You wonder how much of that comes into you know, 0:29:19.240 --> 0:29:20.920 the defense pinning their ears back when they get that 0:29:20.960 --> 0:29:23.200 big lead, because you can't be one dimensional. It gets 0:29:23.200 --> 0:29:25.280 a defense like that, and Brian Flores talks about playing 0:29:25.280 --> 0:29:28.000 complinary football all the time. Defense has to help the 0:29:28.040 --> 0:29:30.240 offense out. Offense hasn't been helping the defense out today. 0:29:30.240 --> 0:29:32.440 They flipped that script. So just cannot find a way 0:29:32.680 --> 0:29:34.720 to get all three phases going at the same time. 0:29:34.760 --> 0:29:38.080 Forty five seven teams, you're five and now back with 0:29:38.120 --> 0:29:40.600 you guys again. We move on to segment number two, 0:29:41.240 --> 0:29:43.560 and so we kind of come off the end of 0:29:43.560 --> 0:29:46.200 that first segment. They're talking about this the conclusion of 0:29:46.240 --> 0:29:48.080 this game and the defense, and I think it's worth 0:29:48.560 --> 0:29:50.480 kind of going back in on that side of the 0:29:50.480 --> 0:29:52.680 football because there was so much that popped up in 0:29:52.720 --> 0:29:54.560 this game and that has really kind of become a trend. 0:29:54.600 --> 0:29:56.440 At this point. We can talk about the class of 0:29:56.480 --> 0:29:59.040 the National Football League and Tampa Bay Buccaneers all we want, 0:29:59.080 --> 0:30:00.800 but over the last four we weeks, it's just not 0:30:00.880 --> 0:30:03.040 been good enough in that area, or really any area 0:30:03.120 --> 0:30:06.600 for that matter. But over the last over this this season, 0:30:06.600 --> 0:30:09.000 Dolphins are pushing up to thirty five points allowed per game, 0:30:09.000 --> 0:30:11.000 and if you include the sixteenth game of the season 0:30:11.080 --> 0:30:13.200 last year. You know, Seth kind of mentioned it in 0:30:13.200 --> 0:30:15.720 the last segment, how they were at that number thirty 0:30:15.800 --> 0:30:18.040 five points this year, but going into the last game 0:30:18.040 --> 0:30:20.120 of the season last year, they were at eighteen point 0:30:20.200 --> 0:30:23.280 three points per game allowed, so almost double the points allowed. 0:30:23.280 --> 0:30:25.560 When you include the Buffalo game last season and the 0:30:25.600 --> 0:30:28.400 first five games of this season, the defense has just 0:30:28.520 --> 0:30:30.920 come apart at the seams. And I kind of want 0:30:30.920 --> 0:30:33.400 to ask you, o J what happened there, because I mean, 0:30:33.720 --> 0:30:36.280 I've got so many notes here just talking about You've 0:30:36.320 --> 0:30:39.080 got veterans that and I know one game is is 0:30:39.120 --> 0:30:41.920 maybe too much to go over your knee jerk reaction 0:30:41.960 --> 0:30:44.560 on this stuff. But a really rough game for Jerome Baker, 0:30:44.560 --> 0:30:47.000 a really difficult game for Xavian Howard. Eric Rose had 0:30:47.000 --> 0:30:48.760 a couple of rough games in a row. These are 0:30:48.760 --> 0:30:50.840 guys that were big time playmakers a year ago that 0:30:50.880 --> 0:30:52.600 you counted on and you knew what you were going 0:30:52.640 --> 0:30:55.160 to get out of them. When those guys start to regress, 0:30:55.320 --> 0:30:58.040 like how do you overcome that? Yeah, that's a tough deal. 0:30:58.280 --> 0:31:00.400 And you know when it's what's crazy is how when 0:31:00.480 --> 0:31:03.560 the young guys see your veterans, you know, not having 0:31:03.640 --> 0:31:05.760 much success, it kind of trickles down a little bit. Man. 0:31:05.800 --> 0:31:08.320 They're like, oh, damn, you know, we're in for one 0:31:08.400 --> 0:31:10.080 to day. You know what I mean. It's not what 0:31:10.120 --> 0:31:12.240 they're saying, but that's you know, I saw kind of 0:31:12.320 --> 0:31:14.840 you know, translate what they're what they're thinking about. You know, 0:31:14.920 --> 0:31:18.120 those guys are the ones, especially to that you expect 0:31:18.600 --> 0:31:20.120 not only to go out there and play well, but 0:31:20.160 --> 0:31:22.520 to prepare the best. You know. The veteran guys are 0:31:22.560 --> 0:31:24.560 the ones that look at more film a lot of times. 0:31:24.600 --> 0:31:27.600 They're the ones that you know, anticipate things happening before 0:31:27.600 --> 0:31:29.520 they happen, and then you expected to go out there 0:31:29.560 --> 0:31:31.840 and make plays when they're not making plays. When I 0:31:31.840 --> 0:31:34.760 see him hesitant time, I saw Big hesitated a few times, 0:31:34.800 --> 0:31:37.640 which is unlike him. You know, I'm listening a little 0:31:37.680 --> 0:31:40.600 bit on the radio. Well, Channing, and he talked about 0:31:40.600 --> 0:31:43.120 how prepared guy like Zack Thomas was all the time. 0:31:43.160 --> 0:31:45.800 I never really saw Zack hesitate because he knew exactly 0:31:45.800 --> 0:31:47.440 what was gonna happen all the time, so he wondered 0:31:47.560 --> 0:31:50.280 a lot of times with preparation. You know, whether guys 0:31:50.320 --> 0:31:53.000 are getting surprised by certain plays or certain things, certain 0:31:53.000 --> 0:31:56.480 things happening. But for our veteran guys, that's shocking. That's 0:31:56.520 --> 0:31:58.560 really shocking for me to see our veteran guys go 0:31:58.600 --> 0:32:00.880 out there and get beat our you know, our our 0:32:00.960 --> 0:32:04.520 top paid corners getting beat regularly today, you know, big 0:32:04.840 --> 0:32:06.680 in one on one of the linebackers. I mean with 0:32:06.720 --> 0:32:09.479 the running backs getting beat, you know, I mean that 0:32:09.560 --> 0:32:10.960 was that was that was tough to watch. So I 0:32:11.000 --> 0:32:13.280 don't know how you how you get back to the 0:32:13.320 --> 0:32:16.320 basics hopefully, you know. I was joking about, you know, 0:32:16.640 --> 0:32:18.240 we talked about earlier in the week, whether these guys 0:32:18.240 --> 0:32:20.480 are flying to Tampa or busting up there. I made 0:32:20.480 --> 0:32:22.080 a joke coming in and said they should walk back 0:32:22.280 --> 0:32:24.240 and you know, and maybe watch film the whole way back, 0:32:24.640 --> 0:32:26.320 you know, and let's see if that will help him 0:32:26.320 --> 0:32:29.200 a little bit. But I'm gonna tell you man, it 0:32:29.240 --> 0:32:31.960 has to start with our veteran group or somebody. Have 0:32:32.040 --> 0:32:34.400 we heard of any not nothing. I don't want you 0:32:34.400 --> 0:32:36.240 to bring anything out of building, Travis. Has there been 0:32:36.240 --> 0:32:38.560 any player only meetings and the players actually gotten up 0:32:38.560 --> 0:32:40.760 there and said anything or talk to these guys or 0:32:40.920 --> 0:32:44.080 because honestly, if it's if it's not in within coaching, 0:32:44.120 --> 0:32:46.360 it's gotta be within the players. But sometimes it seems 0:32:46.360 --> 0:32:48.240 like a lot of both, because don't you feel like 0:32:48.280 --> 0:32:50.720 there's enough talent on this team, at least from an 0:32:50.760 --> 0:32:53.600 outside perspective that you should be able to get at 0:32:53.640 --> 0:32:56.040 least as semblance of the production you had a season ago. 0:32:56.080 --> 0:32:57.520 And we thought we had that in the first game 0:32:57.560 --> 0:33:00.440 over the Patriots with the seventeen sixteen. To be aware, 0:33:00.480 --> 0:33:02.360 in New England, sure they ate up from yardage there, 0:33:02.360 --> 0:33:04.160 but Miami is going to clamp down and and get 0:33:04.200 --> 0:33:06.200 off the field in the red zone in those key areas. 0:33:06.240 --> 0:33:08.080 But you just feel like that's kind of the strength 0:33:08.080 --> 0:33:09.640 of the football team. And that's kind of where Brian 0:33:09.680 --> 0:33:12.000 Floor started building this thing. And I just kind of 0:33:12.080 --> 0:33:14.320 keep coming back to the question, Seth, like where do 0:33:14.360 --> 0:33:15.800 you go from here? Because I think you gave me 0:33:15.800 --> 0:33:17.800 the number was it was it four hundred forty two 0:33:17.880 --> 0:33:20.600 yards allowed per game was over the four game losing streak. 0:33:20.840 --> 0:33:23.560 That's since day one, okay that that's since the beginning 0:33:23.600 --> 0:33:25.520 of the season. The thirty four and a half points 0:33:25.560 --> 0:33:28.680 was within the losing streak. But you can't give up 0:33:28.680 --> 0:33:31.160 four hundred yards a game and expect to win, and 0:33:31.320 --> 0:33:34.800 especially not again you're you know what are you scoring? 0:33:35.160 --> 0:33:39.360 This is not a team that has this this firepower 0:33:39.520 --> 0:33:42.080 on offense, and this is this is a team that's 0:33:42.120 --> 0:33:46.920 built from the defense first. And it's problematic. You know again, 0:33:47.000 --> 0:33:49.160 thirty four and a half points per game, four hundred plus, 0:33:49.240 --> 0:33:50.640 I didn't even look at what it what it was. 0:33:50.680 --> 0:33:53.080 We can do the mathew really quickly. But the amount 0:33:53.080 --> 0:33:55.800 of yards that they're giving up, juice. And here's the thing. 0:33:56.320 --> 0:33:58.560 Early on I even heard it on Drivetime with you 0:33:58.600 --> 0:34:00.719 and John con Jemmy Travis, where you said, is this 0:34:00.760 --> 0:34:03.360 a situation where the offense is not getting you know, 0:34:03.400 --> 0:34:06.240 not converting third downs, having too many three and ounces, 0:34:06.240 --> 0:34:08.600 the defense on the field too much. The defense was 0:34:08.640 --> 0:34:11.240 on the field too much today because the defense couldn't 0:34:11.239 --> 0:34:14.359 stop anybody eight for eleven on third downs. Juice a 0:34:14.360 --> 0:34:18.480 lot of points and you know that this cannot be 0:34:18.560 --> 0:34:21.080 blamed on you gotta score more than seventeen points against 0:34:21.120 --> 0:34:23.920 Tom Brady. I get that, but this cannot be blamed 0:34:23.920 --> 0:34:26.640 The defensive performance cannot be blamed on the offense. Today 0:34:26.800 --> 0:34:29.120 those guys did not step up. I am a huge 0:34:29.239 --> 0:34:32.080 Xavien Howard fan, and he has been, you know, elite 0:34:32.800 --> 0:34:35.840 at the beginning of this season. But today that was 0:34:35.920 --> 0:34:38.480 not what we're used to seeing from Xavian Howard. Granted, 0:34:38.520 --> 0:34:40.479 the guy he was playing against is pretty good, Juice, 0:34:40.520 --> 0:34:41.920 you said it was kind of interesting that he was 0:34:41.920 --> 0:34:45.399 on a b the entire game, but you just need more. 0:34:45.480 --> 0:34:49.600 I know that Byron Jones was was banged up this week, right, 0:34:49.640 --> 0:34:50.960 and there was a question as to whether or not 0:34:51.000 --> 0:34:54.560 he would even go. But man, you you just can't. 0:34:54.680 --> 0:34:56.600 You can't get up there and let forty five get 0:34:56.640 --> 0:34:58.279 hung on you. Juice. I want to. I want to 0:34:58.360 --> 0:34:59.839 kind of fall up on that point. The heath next 0:35:00.000 --> 0:35:02.759 about Xaviing Howard on Antonio Brown because last year I 0:35:03.080 --> 0:35:04.880 actually had a chance to ask Byron Jones at the 0:35:04.880 --> 0:35:08.200 press conference. You know, in terms of matching up with 0:35:08.239 --> 0:35:10.279 certain guys, how do you feel your your trades match 0:35:10.360 --> 0:35:11.920 up with this guy or you know, so on and 0:35:11.960 --> 0:35:13.440 so forth, and he kind of like put me in 0:35:13.440 --> 0:35:15.160 my place in a way where he said, like, I 0:35:15.200 --> 0:35:17.120 play the right side, exploys the left side. And I 0:35:17.120 --> 0:35:19.359 didn't know about that until obviously he told me that. 0:35:19.600 --> 0:35:21.399 And that was you know, we talked about intent ontent 0:35:21.480 --> 0:35:23.840 all the time with Sam Madison and Pat Curtain and 0:35:23.840 --> 0:35:25.319 all those guys that were you know, did a good 0:35:25.400 --> 0:35:28.640 job back for those defense you know, decades ago. But um, 0:35:28.840 --> 0:35:36.879 Xavian Howard gets gets kicked inside. Go again, Xavian Howard 0:35:36.920 --> 0:35:38.840 gets kicked inside on the slot because he's traveling with 0:35:38.880 --> 0:35:41.400 Antonio Brown, And I just I've never thought that was 0:35:41.440 --> 0:35:44.280 where X's strength fled. So when you're looking at matchups 0:35:44.440 --> 0:35:47.160 from receiver standpoint, you you've got a guy that you 0:35:47.200 --> 0:35:48.839 know is going to travel with you, do you start 0:35:48.880 --> 0:35:50.680 to say, Hey, here's where I can get him and 0:35:50.680 --> 0:35:52.080 and go after him that way even when it's an 0:35:52.120 --> 0:35:54.080 all proloct Xavian Howard, does a guy like that have 0:35:54.200 --> 0:35:56.719 weaknesses where you can attack it that way? Oh yeah, 0:35:56.719 --> 0:35:58.480 just because you can play on the outside doesn't mean 0:35:58.520 --> 0:36:00.719 you can play in the slot lot as a whole 0:36:00.760 --> 0:36:03.680 different animal man. And you know, especially guys. You know, 0:36:03.800 --> 0:36:06.040 you got a guy with that quick quick twitch like 0:36:06.160 --> 0:36:09.239 Antonio Brown. You need guys that have the same type 0:36:09.239 --> 0:36:11.920 of quick twitch. And you look, you notice about about 0:36:12.160 --> 0:36:13.839 x X can run with you. He can, he can, 0:36:14.160 --> 0:36:15.839 he can you know, he can put his hands on 0:36:15.880 --> 0:36:18.480 you when it comes to in short space where you 0:36:18.600 --> 0:36:20.920 got we have to work with some of these guys 0:36:20.960 --> 0:36:23.879 that are slot receivers. Man, It's it's like right now, 0:36:24.160 --> 0:36:26.600 and Antonio Brown doesn't get much faster and quicker and 0:36:26.680 --> 0:36:28.839 slot than that, you know, And so when you got 0:36:28.840 --> 0:36:31.000 the other guys on the outside with guy Win and Evans, 0:36:31.120 --> 0:36:33.840 and you got him in the slot and Brady loves him, 0:36:34.040 --> 0:36:36.279 you know, that's that's a problem. So what I would 0:36:36.320 --> 0:36:38.799 have done, I'm gonna go there. What what they should 0:36:38.840 --> 0:36:41.839 have done? In my opinion, No, it was maybe use 0:36:41.920 --> 0:36:45.799 two guys, you know, on inside with with Antonio Brown 0:36:45.880 --> 0:36:47.520 and keep your your main guys that are used to 0:36:47.560 --> 0:36:49.480 playing on the edge outside. And there was a rap 0:36:49.520 --> 0:36:51.040 where they did that and the end zone, I think 0:36:51.080 --> 0:36:53.279 on the first field goal drive they allowed to I 0:36:53.320 --> 0:36:55.640 think when the Bucks made it ten ten, I believe 0:36:55.640 --> 0:36:58.320 at one point and they had halland kind of closed 0:36:58.320 --> 0:37:00.160 down on God win in the end zone on uh 0:37:00.320 --> 0:37:02.560 they capt him and from the slot, and I wonder 0:37:02.600 --> 0:37:03.880 if the Bucks that kind of goes on what we 0:37:03.880 --> 0:37:05.799 talked about the adjustments, right, Maybe the Bucks see that 0:37:05.800 --> 0:37:07.800 and they say, well, let's let's not mess with that anymore. 0:37:07.840 --> 0:37:09.960 Let's let's get their single man coverage. Because we know 0:37:10.000 --> 0:37:13.000 the X is traveling with Antonio Brown, Let's go ahead 0:37:13.000 --> 0:37:15.360 and move him inside and take that double team outside. 0:37:15.480 --> 0:37:18.359 Is that something that happens, Yeah, I mean absolutely, and 0:37:18.640 --> 0:37:21.839 you know, and unfortunately, you know, it didn't look like 0:37:21.920 --> 0:37:24.480 anything was gonna work coverage wise. I think they were 0:37:24.520 --> 0:37:26.400 just running routes. It's like seven on seven. And you 0:37:26.400 --> 0:37:28.160 know what else traveling we don't talk a lot about 0:37:28.360 --> 0:37:32.000 is lack of pressure. You can't guard anybody as long 0:37:32.040 --> 0:37:36.440 as we have to and you don't get anything exactly right. Definitely, 0:37:36.440 --> 0:37:38.200 can't let him sit there and pat the rock man 0:37:38.239 --> 0:37:40.239 and let these guys just run whatever routes they want 0:37:40.239 --> 0:37:42.239 to run, you know, and expect our guys to be 0:37:42.280 --> 0:37:44.080 able to hang in there. And that that's a big 0:37:44.120 --> 0:37:46.359 problem and it's going to continue to be a big problem. 0:37:46.400 --> 0:37:47.759 I think we've got a couple of sacks today, But 0:37:47.760 --> 0:37:50.160 at the same time and a few hits. But you know, 0:37:50.200 --> 0:37:52.400 when it was important, when we really needed we couldn't 0:37:52.440 --> 0:37:54.239 get there, couldn't get off the field. You talk about 0:37:54.239 --> 0:37:56.560 the third down stats, and that's usually when you gotta 0:37:56.600 --> 0:37:58.880 have guys that you know, pinting their ears back and 0:37:59.200 --> 0:38:02.279 get to quarterback is getting their face making uncomfortable. Tom 0:38:02.280 --> 0:38:03.680 Braid was way too cold. I don't even know if 0:38:03.680 --> 0:38:06.959 his jersey, I mean, his uniform, his hands a little 0:38:06.960 --> 0:38:12.520 banged up he was at the end. But you know, yeah, 0:38:13.120 --> 0:38:16.120 I think it's right. Look at the drive chart. Here 0:38:16.120 --> 0:38:21.239 Phillas touchdown. This is Tampa Bay's drive chart. Touchdown, field goal, touchdown, touchdown, 0:38:21.280 --> 0:38:24.640 missfield goal, punt. There was one punt. Everybody want to 0:38:24.640 --> 0:38:28.240 know how Waddle was gonna return punts. There was one touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, 0:38:28.360 --> 0:38:32.640 end of game. You can't win that way. It wasn't 0:38:32.719 --> 0:38:35.279 even competitive. If you look at that and you don't 0:38:35.360 --> 0:38:37.799 let me take a step back. It was competitive for 0:38:37.840 --> 0:38:40.080 a minute there. You know, at the end of the 0:38:40.120 --> 0:38:44.360 second half, we were the Dolphins were down two scores 0:38:44.600 --> 0:38:46.719 and they're driving and there what I think they got 0:38:46.719 --> 0:38:49.600 to the thirty yard line with about a minute or 0:38:49.640 --> 0:38:52.360 forty five seconds left that when you got hot in here. Yeah, 0:38:52.680 --> 0:38:54.520 you know what, we started to feel like maybe that 0:38:54.520 --> 0:38:56.960 that that the team was moving, that that they were 0:38:56.960 --> 0:38:59.440 ready to play, that they did what you expected. That 0:38:59.520 --> 0:39:01.680 you right up. You step up when you're playing the 0:39:01.719 --> 0:39:04.440 defending Super Bowl champions and when you're I don't think 0:39:04.480 --> 0:39:06.799 your seasons on the line. I hate all that all 0:39:06.800 --> 0:39:09.719 the season's over. Well it's not mathematically over, but man, 0:39:09.840 --> 0:39:11.800 dropping on one and four is tough pill to swallow, 0:39:11.800 --> 0:39:14.520 and so you need to bring it from start to finish. 0:39:14.719 --> 0:39:16.520 And they were driving, had an opportunity to make it 0:39:16.560 --> 0:39:18.920 a one score game going into the half. The strip 0:39:19.000 --> 0:39:22.400 sack doesn't do you any favors, but but they still 0:39:22.440 --> 0:39:24.319 close it, I think, to a one score game at 0:39:24.320 --> 0:39:29.359 one point. But the defense never, never, never answered. There's 0:39:29.400 --> 0:39:31.279 been moments like that all season long. It feels like 0:39:31.320 --> 0:39:33.160 where you start to feel like they're crawling back into 0:39:33.160 --> 0:39:35.839 the game. Obviously, Las Vegas those couple of drives late, 0:39:35.880 --> 0:39:37.759 we still the three of us are still upset about 0:39:37.760 --> 0:39:40.040 the no call on Will Fuller in the end zone. 0:39:40.080 --> 0:39:42.960 You know that feels like even more it does, but 0:39:43.040 --> 0:39:45.320 two and three would feel a lot different than it 0:39:45.320 --> 0:39:47.399 would feel. Love there with QB one and possibly ready 0:39:47.400 --> 0:39:49.200 to come back off the injury reserve list as well. 0:39:49.200 --> 0:39:51.160 And you get ray Kuan Davis back today and maybe 0:39:51.200 --> 0:39:53.960 DeVante Parker's back next week. Who knows about that. You know, 0:39:54.000 --> 0:39:56.000 maybe you have some some optimism and going into that 0:39:56.040 --> 0:39:58.960 game overseason to London, maybe they'll find their rhythm over there. 0:39:58.960 --> 0:40:01.280 We'll see if that happens. But just two quick points 0:40:01.560 --> 0:40:02.960 that you touched on their Seth, I want to talk 0:40:02.960 --> 0:40:05.200 about you talked about punt returns. Can we talk about 0:40:05.239 --> 0:40:07.600 punts for a second. Was it thirty eight and a 0:40:07.640 --> 0:40:10.040 half yard average on four punts? I don't think I've 0:40:10.040 --> 0:40:12.120 ever seen that before. That's like a gross number, isn't 0:40:12.120 --> 0:40:16.480 it isn't that you're differential off the return usually thirty 0:40:16.480 --> 0:40:18.080 eight something yards. I mean, you gotta do better than 0:40:18.080 --> 0:40:20.120 that there. And then also, Seth, you talked about pass 0:40:20.120 --> 0:40:21.480 brush and we can come back and talk about this 0:40:21.480 --> 0:40:23.160 because we're almost out of time here on this segment. 0:40:23.200 --> 0:40:25.720 But just the court, the types of quarterbacks of Dolphins 0:40:25.760 --> 0:40:28.719 were not just beating last year, but making look like 0:40:28.760 --> 0:40:31.880 they didn't belong on the field. Were these quarterbacks that 0:40:31.960 --> 0:40:34.600 don't run particularly well? And I know Tom Brady's mobile 0:40:34.640 --> 0:40:37.040 within the pocket. But I mean even the defense back 0:40:37.040 --> 0:40:40.000 in twenty nineteen, it's not, you know, comparable to this season, 0:40:40.040 --> 0:40:42.560 but that defense had far less high draft picks and 0:40:42.600 --> 0:40:45.960 free agents and overall technical quote unquote talent, and they 0:40:45.960 --> 0:40:48.719 stomped out that Tom Brady led Patriots offense. I just, 0:40:49.280 --> 0:40:51.279 I've got so many questions about where to go from here, 0:40:51.280 --> 0:40:52.680 but we're gonna come back and get to more of those. 0:40:52.680 --> 0:40:55.239 Hopefully coach Flores has some answers for him here on 0:40:55.280 --> 0:40:55.960 the other side.
