Speaker 1: What is up Dolphins and welcome to the Drift Time Podcast.
Speaker 1: I am your host, Travis Wingfield. And on today's show,
Speaker 1: our penultimate game of the season takes us to the
Speaker 1: Mistake by the Lake Lake Erie, Cleveland, Brown's four.
Speaker 2: H five Clickoff.
Speaker 1: It's a chance to give back to five hundred and
Speaker 1: hopefully a chance to keep our playoff hopes alive. From
Speaker 1: the Baptist Health Studios inside the Baptist Health Training Complex.
Speaker 2: This is the Drive Time Podcast.
Speaker 1: Maybe and by the time the Dolphins do click off,
Speaker 1: it could be curtains on the season. And before we
Speaker 1: get into that real quick, just want to mention, so
Speaker 1: two and zero so far through the week. As this
Speaker 1: podcast comes out ahead of Thursday Night football, We're gonna
Speaker 1: take the Seahawks over the Bears tonight. Isn't it funny
Speaker 1: how clear of a line of demarcation there is in
Speaker 1: the AFC pretty much every single year, Kansas City, Baltimore
Speaker 1: and Buffalo. I knew going into that the Christmas Games,
Speaker 1: I knew the Steelers were pretenders.
Speaker 2: I was weary of the Texans.
Speaker 1: Maybe thought that they could after the bye week get
Speaker 1: things together, which they did defensively but offensively. Still not
Speaker 1: really clicking there in Houston. It's the same damn three teams. Man.
Speaker 1: We fight about this all offseason. We fight about the
Speaker 1: drop off of the Bills. We fight about the Baltimore
Speaker 1: Ravens losing so many coaches on their staff and their
Speaker 1: defense falls apart, and oh, the Chiefs don't have the
Speaker 1: same explosive offense, so they're fifteen to one. The Ravens
Speaker 1: are gonna win the North. The Bills have are already
Speaker 1: basically clinched into the two seed. It's those teams and
Speaker 1: everybody else, man, So we got to find a way
Speaker 1: to break that next year. But I mean that tells
Speaker 1: you how the AFC playoffs are gonna go. Hopefully Buffalo
Speaker 1: has to go through both teams, and I think they
Speaker 1: probably will if Baltimore gets the three seed, and then
Speaker 1: they they both win their wild card games, and then
Speaker 1: Baltimore goes into Buffalo.
Speaker 2: That's gonna be a fun game.
Speaker 1: And then you're gonna have to rely on the Chiefs
Speaker 1: once again to beat the Buffalo Bills.
Speaker 2: I don't really.
Speaker 1: Hate the Chiefs winning this many chancesampionships because it means
Speaker 1: that the other teams I don't like don't win championships,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, Okay, keep it was
Speaker 1: like with the Patriots a certain point, just keep letting
Speaker 1: Brady win them all because that way the teams I
Speaker 1: don't like otherwise are not getting their championships.
Speaker 2: I don't know, man, We'll see.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's gonna be a fun couple of weeks
Speaker 1: here in the NFL, but it's all kind of leading
Speaker 1: up to just basically Bills and Chiefs or Chiefs and
Speaker 1: Ravens or whatever it might be, right, and then we'll see,
Speaker 1: like Eagles and Lions. Can either of those teams compete
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl with the Chiefs or the Bills
Speaker 1: or the Ravens. I don't think so, but we shall see.
Speaker 1: The Lions could have if they were healthy, but they
Speaker 1: are not. Anyway, That's the whole point. We have a
Speaker 1: must win game here coming up on Sunday, and we
Speaker 1: have to get some help. I think we will get
Speaker 1: that help, and I put it on Blue Sky. I
Speaker 1: think that the Dolphins and Jets game is going to
Speaker 1: have a very likelihood of being flexed into Saturday based
Speaker 1: upon how I feel the results will go Sunday, and
Speaker 1: they usually break that out Sunday night after the games
Speaker 1: are after the Sunday Night Football game raps and with
Speaker 1: Commanders and Falcons on Sunday Night Football, I imagine, and that's
Speaker 1: going to be a pretty early declaration because the way
Speaker 1: I see it, I don't think the Lions and Vikings
Speaker 1: game is going to be for the division in the
Speaker 1: one seed because I think the Vikings are going to
Speaker 1: lose to the Packers this week.
Speaker 2: I think the Lions are going to be the Niners.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that in the picks, and the way
Speaker 1: the rest of the stuff goes, I basically think the
Speaker 1: only games are going to matter for playoff implications are
Speaker 1: going to be those wild card spots across the AFC.
Speaker 1: So it's going to be the Chargers, the Colts, the Dolphins,
Speaker 1: the Bengals and Broncos competing for two spots in my opinion. Again,
Speaker 1: we'll get to that on the picks tomorrow, but I
Speaker 1: think Miami has a real shot of being flexed to
Speaker 1: Saturday against the Jets in the finale. But first you
Speaker 1: have to win this one week seventeen at the Cleveland
Speaker 1: Browns Huntington Bay Bank Field. I had no idea what
Speaker 1: was called that back when I was in like high
Speaker 1: school and junior high and I would do this season
Speaker 1: predictions and write the Dolphins schedule on my peachy folders,
Speaker 1: whatever the hell I.
Speaker 2: Was doing back then.
Speaker 1: I always knew the name of every stadium because most
Speaker 1: of them had like team associated names. We were getting
Speaker 1: into the corporate world of stadium naming back then. But
Speaker 1: Huntington Bank Field since win, I had to look that up.
Speaker 1: Four h five kickoff on CBS. It's gonna be about
Speaker 1: fifty five degrees at kickoff, drops to the forties after sunset,
Speaker 1: So not that bad from a cold perspective, but there
Speaker 1: is a good chance for rain, about a fifty percent
Speaker 1: chance some ten to fifteen mile prior win projections. It
Speaker 1: feels like we've avoided rain for a couple of years.
Speaker 1: Now you might break that run this week. Let's get
Speaker 1: to know the Browns here real quick, and O man,
Speaker 1: you think the Dolphins have had it bad? This team
Speaker 1: in To say the last few years for the Browns
Speaker 1: has been tumultuous would be the understatement of the year.
Speaker 1: And think about that statement. Think about that statement on
Speaker 1: its own. When you consider the three hundred and sixty
Speaker 1: five days ago. This was a team that was in
Speaker 1: the midst of a winning streak that would produce an
Speaker 1: eleven and six campaign and basically put all the other
Speaker 1: wild card contenders beneath them. And had the Browns not
Speaker 1: done that, Miami would have been on the road in
Speaker 1: Houston in the wildcard round last year. It's a winnable game,
Speaker 1: a lot more winnable than the freaking twenty five to
Speaker 1: blow zero degrees. The Chiefs game was you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, and they go back to the post's they
Speaker 1: get wiped by the Houston Texans.
Speaker 2: Now, quite frankly, you know, how's the saying go? You
Speaker 2: reput you so?
Speaker 1: And I say, they got exactly what they deserve by
Speaker 1: acquiring that quarterback and giving him the most guaranteed contract,
Speaker 1: the fully guaranteed contract anybody's ever gotten. But I guess
Speaker 1: in this country, with enough money, you can make sexual
Speaker 1: improprieties go away. In fact, they're not even career enders,
Speaker 1: true for politicians and true for quarterbacks. It's been fitting
Speaker 1: that when he went down last year, Flacco came in
Speaker 1: and did what he did.
Speaker 2: Then this year they.
Speaker 1: Actually get some fun football out of Jamis Winston. Browns
Speaker 1: fans can enjoy going to games again even if it
Speaker 1: wasn't winning football.
Speaker 2: So we'll see where they go next year.
Speaker 1: But to recap the recent run, I think it began
Speaker 1: back in the Baker Mayfield draft in twenty eighteen to
Speaker 1: lect him first overall. He takes over and takes the
Speaker 1: city by storm. He's in every damn commercial you turn
Speaker 1: the TV on. They go seven to eight and one
Speaker 1: with a pretty bad football team that year and become
Speaker 1: the it team for twenty nineteen. Go out and acquire
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham Junior, but fall short of expectations at six
Speaker 1: and ten, but then they hit the expectations eleven and five.
Speaker 1: They win a playoff game against the Pittsburgh Steelers for
Speaker 1: the first time in like twenty years, and it makes us,
Speaker 1: besides the Lions recently, the longest playoff wins rout team
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Damn near beat the Chiefs in the
Speaker 1: Divisional round that year, but then Baker plays a full
Speaker 1: season with a shoulder injury. They go eight to nine
Speaker 1: and move off of him, looking for greener pastures. They
Speaker 1: go seven to ten in the Jacoby Brissett slash Deshaun
Speaker 1: Watson era or first year, I should say then last
Speaker 1: year Deshaun gets the opening day start and produces one
Speaker 1: of the lowest QB epas we've ever seen in the NFL,
Speaker 1: gets himself hurt. Flacko arrives mid season and leads them
Speaker 1: to a four game winning streak and into the postseason.
Speaker 1: To Shawn returns this year and it's right on par
Speaker 1: with twenty twenty three. Maybe there is a god. He
Speaker 1: gets hurt. Jamis Winstig nites them for a bit, but
Speaker 1: shows you all the signs of a quarterback who once
Speaker 1: had a thirty thirty five thousand season my favorite stat
Speaker 1: of all time. Thirty touchdowns, thirty picks, five thousand passing yards,
Speaker 1: highs and lows. And now they're on their third quarterback
Speaker 1: Dorian Thompson Robinson and have floated the idea of Bailey
Speaker 1: Zappi would be next should dtr not be available. Man
Speaker 1: rough couple of weeks here for the Cleveland Browns. It's
Speaker 1: a super talented defense with likely the two time Defensive
Speaker 1: Player of the Year award winner and Miles Garrett. I
Speaker 1: think he wins it again this year. A true number
Speaker 1: one cornerback, good linebacker play if he's going to be available.
Speaker 1: Jeremiah Wusu Kormoa and an offensive line that has big
Speaker 1: name but injury issues, a star running back that came
Speaker 1: back from agrusive injury only to get injured again, and
Speaker 1: a wide receiver cord that's pretty damn good, but led
Speaker 1: by a player they acquired in season in Jerry Judy.
Speaker 1: Truly one of the more fascinating teams in recent memory.
Speaker 1: Let's go ahead and stick with the president and get
Speaker 1: to know the Cleveland Browns offense and if it isn't
Speaker 1: our third consecutive Shannahan Tree offense, which is also true
Speaker 1: for the fourth time in the last five games going
Speaker 1: back to the Packer game. Now that said it is
Speaker 1: an offshoot, but it wasn't what they were always doing.
Speaker 1: The Browns have actually pivoted back to it this year
Speaker 1: after going away from it to accommodate.
Speaker 2: I really want to say what I want to say
Speaker 2: about the quarterback, but we'll.
Speaker 1: Keep it there so comedy Watson, right, he gets his way,
Speaker 1: and then they pivoted right back to it when he
Speaker 1: got hurt. It's almost exclusively under Watson, a shotgun offense
Speaker 1: compared to under center play action outside zone game that
Speaker 1: was more spread it out, get your vertical shots in
Speaker 1: through Max protection and play to Deshaun's strengths, which is well,
Speaker 1: doesn't really have anyone anymore. But it used to be
Speaker 1: big play hunting and scrambling around and creating off script.
Speaker 1: But since he went down, they have pivoted back somewhat
Speaker 1: more to the under center play action outside zone game.
Speaker 1: But the overarching issue is they went from this awesome
Speaker 1: pre game or pre Deshaun Watson run game to even
Speaker 1: down the stretch last year with Joe Flacco having it
Speaker 1: back to Watson's offense, where the run game went away again,
Speaker 1: and now they're back to the original Stefanski attack. The
Speaker 1: run game has not returned with him and that offense
Speaker 1: coming back. It is now the twenty seventh ranked rushing attack,
Speaker 1: and we know this is an attack that uses They
Speaker 1: utilize a lot of multiple tight ends, multiple back sets,
Speaker 1: but that's where the pivot came into. Eleven personnel was
Speaker 1: ran seventy two percent this year and twelve personnel was
Speaker 1: seventeen percent. They do dabble in some four wide one
Speaker 1: running back, no tight end, which is weird because that's
Speaker 1: their best player on offense to me is David Nijoku.
Speaker 1: It's only three percent, but they do run that sometimes,
Speaker 1: but there's no thirteen personnel, there's no two backs that
Speaker 1: It's been a tough year, as it would for anyone
Speaker 1: playing that many quarterbacks. For the Browns, they're thirtieth in
Speaker 1: yards per play, thirty first in points last and EPA
Speaker 1: per play success rate and third down conversions over expected.
Speaker 1: So for Miami, you have to look at this matchup
Speaker 1: as a chance to suffocate them, possibly shut them out.
Speaker 1: That's how bad they've been offensively. Now, how do you
Speaker 1: attack it? To be perfectly frank with you, guys, I
Speaker 1: don't really have a passage here. Greg Olsen, the great
Speaker 1: play by play man who should be on Fox is
Speaker 1: number one booth.
Speaker 2: But I digress had a.
Speaker 1: Quote on the game he broadcasted earlier this season that
Speaker 1: I found on social saying, quote, they have tailored an
Speaker 1: offense to their head coach is unfamiliar with around a
Speaker 1: quarterback who can't do anything to make it go. There
Speaker 1: has to be a breaking point coming end quote. And
Speaker 1: that was after an October sixth game to the Eagles
Speaker 1: with the Browns could not move the football at all.
Speaker 1: And of course he has since been removed due to injury.
Speaker 1: And I think we saw the glimpses of hope and
Speaker 1: return to some of those vertical passing concepts that paired
Speaker 1: with the horizontal stretch, an outside zone game with Jerome
Speaker 1: Ford and when they had Nick Chubb going where Winston
Speaker 1: was able to get that going to a certain degree.
Speaker 1: So one in seven with Watson, Winston comes in and
Speaker 1: they beat Baltimore. They get blown out by the Chargers
Speaker 1: and Saints. They get that super fun TNF snow win
Speaker 1: against the Steelers that I thought was gonna be a
Speaker 1: big game for the Dolphins because look at Steelers now.
Speaker 1: I thought they could just lose all those games down
Speaker 1: the stretch. And they beat the Bengals barely or not barely.
Speaker 1: They beat him pretty soundly. But it was the one
Speaker 1: game the Steelers won to keep themselves ahead of us
Speaker 1: in the playoff race. They get that heartbreaking for Dolphins
Speaker 1: fans lost to the Broncos where Jamis had four touchdowns
Speaker 1: and three picks, two of those back six for touchdowns.
Speaker 1: Then things flat lined against the Steelers last week and
Speaker 1: they make the switch to dtr who has thrown no
Speaker 1: touchdowns and five career picks or five picks this season.
Speaker 1: I really don't know what else to tell you, guys,
Speaker 1: I have to give three things against this offense, Like
Speaker 1: that's how the show works. I don't really have any
Speaker 1: I think if you show up and hold them to
Speaker 1: single digits, like they benched Winston because of his iont rate. Right, well,
Speaker 1: he has a four point one percent interception rate and
Speaker 1: that's really bad. Like Kirk Cousins leads the NFL and picks,
Speaker 1: but his iont rate is three point five. Anthony Richardson
Speaker 1: has the highest ion t rate in the NFL at
Speaker 1: four point five. But Dorian Thompson Robinson who does not
Speaker 1: qualify because it pass attempts, how about a seven point
Speaker 1: one interception rate? Bucko, This is not an NFL quarterback
Speaker 1: Lea's not right now. And if they don't, if they
Speaker 1: don't go with him, it sounds like it'll be a
Speaker 1: Bailey Zappi, which is he an NFL quarterback? No, So,
Speaker 1: after a brutal year of bad scheduling luck, it looks
Speaker 1: like we, like, seriously, we get Kyler at maybe his
Speaker 1: peak of his career. The Rams got everyone back for
Speaker 1: that game against US. The Packers were well out of
Speaker 1: their funk by that point, the Texans coming off there
Speaker 1: by even though they still look like they kind of stink. Hell,
Speaker 1: even the Jets have played better football since their bye week,
Speaker 1: and we get them twice post by week. I'm just
Speaker 1: asking for one damn layup all year. Since this has
Speaker 1: been a year of no cup game games for the Dolphins,
Speaker 1: especially when all the cupcakes you did have where during
Speaker 1: the stretch of games or two was down. This seems
Speaker 1: like your first layup spot of the season. Big three
Speaker 1: versus the Browns offense Number one, Keep changing the picture.
Speaker 1: These are going to be a little bit shorter than
Speaker 1: what we normally do because I really don't think it
Speaker 1: has to be that complex this week. This is a
Speaker 1: group that has struggled, a group that has is playing
Speaker 1: an inexperienced quarterback that has really just based on what
Speaker 1: we do. I think I trust the guy calling defense
Speaker 1: to really make their young quarterbacks head swim. There was
Speaker 1: a great snapshot ahead of the Cater pick last week
Speaker 1: where the Dolphins show a Cover one and run it.
Speaker 1: Then later in the game on the Cater pick, they
Speaker 1: show the exact same look but rotate into zone coverage,
Speaker 1: which gets Cater with eyes to the quarterback on that
Speaker 1: glance route. One beat of hesitation allows our our pick
Speaker 1: stunt to arrive with Kalaias Campbell putting this shot across
Speaker 1: the bow of Brock Purdy and then Cater picks it
Speaker 1: off game over, so he was able to confuse Rock Purdy.
Speaker 1: And that's a stuff against Thompson Robinson that should be
Speaker 1: a walk in the park. Or if we see Jamis
Speaker 1: or even if we see Bailey Zappy, I don't care.
Speaker 1: It's the same across the board. The Browns turn the
Speaker 1: ball over a lot, and I think that we can
Speaker 1: do that in this game, especially if it rains.
Speaker 2: One of the keys for the offense is going to.
Speaker 1: Be to protect the football because I do believe that's
Speaker 1: the only way that Miami leaves Cleveland without a victory
Speaker 1: if they lose the turnover battle. And by that token,
Speaker 1: if you can force a turnover pron offense into turnovers,
Speaker 1: then I think you can get up early and put
Speaker 1: this one away pretty quickly. Dtr seven point four interception
Speaker 1: rate is just way too much. You got to catch
Speaker 1: those interception opportunities. I think there's a chance for Jalen
Speaker 1: Ramsey to get his hands on some footballs and go
Speaker 1: back the other way. That takes us to our second key,
Speaker 1: rate here. Number two, you gotta have answers for Ray
Speaker 1: Joe Day and Elijah Moore. With David Dajokus status in question,
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna play in the game on Sunday.
Speaker 1: Nick Chubbs down, it is Jerry Judy, it is Elijah Moore,
Speaker 1: and then a massive drop off in target share. Judy
Speaker 1: has one hundred and fourteen targets Najoku set ninety seven
Speaker 1: more ninety two, and then Amari Cooper, who's been with
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills for the last nine weeks, has the
Speaker 1: fourth most targets on the Cleveland Browns. But Judy's had
Speaker 1: a revival here in Cleveland, seventy two grabs for one
Speaker 1: thousand and seventy two yards, four touchdowns. He's back to
Speaker 1: the crisp route running. We saw the Alabama and it
Speaker 1: seems like maybe he's got his head on straight this time.
Speaker 1: And I think you have to make him your focal point,
Speaker 1: whether whether you go Ramsey shadow or give consistent attention.
Speaker 1: You know, some see one special, some cover one special.
Speaker 1: Part of what they ran against the Niners where you
Speaker 1: basically run cover one and instead of having your safety
Speaker 1: play a buzzing role, he goes and double somebody, which
Speaker 1: I think is a quite frankly, my preferred option a
Speaker 1: special on Judy with Storm and that safety, because I
Speaker 1: assume Kendall Fuller will not go.
Speaker 2: It sounds like he actually won't go in the game.
Speaker 1: Let Jaylen Ramsey play a lot of man on Elijah
Speaker 1: Moore and see if they can beat you with Cedric Tillman,
Speaker 1: Jordan Aikens, Michael Woods. You know, just a random note.
Speaker 1: I walked past Jayalen in the lunch room today. Every
Speaker 1: time I see that guy, I'm like, that's a corner.
Speaker 1: That dude looks like a linebacker. Back To the point,
Speaker 1: I think your scheme versatility on the back end against
Speaker 1: an inexperienced quarterback and a group of eligibles that could
Speaker 1: be down its top two guys and was somewhat thin
Speaker 1: to begin with after the Amari Cooper trade. I mean,
Speaker 1: Judy is a game breaker outside more plays a lot
Speaker 1: more on the slot inside. That's a matchup I think
Speaker 1: Cateror has can handle as well. It's but that big
Speaker 1: nickel we've shown as well. I think from a scheme
Speaker 1: and personnel standpoint, we stand to have some pretty good
Speaker 1: matchups here against this Browns offense, Judy can beat you deep,
Speaker 1: and that's the best way for Miami to lose this game,
Speaker 1: in my opinion, turning it over on offense and letting
Speaker 1: Judy get behind the defense. But luckily we've done a
Speaker 1: pretty good job of limiting those this year. And the
Speaker 1: quarterback has not seen throwing the ball down the field
Speaker 1: at all.
Speaker 2: I think we could have that well covered.
Speaker 1: He has thrown five balls twenty plus yards this year,
Speaker 1: no completions, two picks. Opposing teams have blitzed him on
Speaker 1: thirty two percent of his dropbacks, and that has produced
Speaker 1: two picks, no touchdowns, and a two yard per attempt average.
Speaker 1: When not blitzed, it's four point six no touchdowns, three picks.
Speaker 1: This is not an NFL offense. Guys, All right, let's
Speaker 1: go ahead and take our first break or right there,
Speaker 1: come back on the other side, do the third thing
Speaker 1: against the Cleveland offense. We'll do the defensive Browns, which
Speaker 1: is actually a good unit against the Dolphins offense.
Speaker 2: What's at stake? Range of outcomes?
Speaker 1: Pick the game keys, all of that more Draft Time podcast,
Speaker 1: your host Travis Wingfield, brought to you by AutoNation.
Speaker 2: The top two.
Speaker 1: Keys against the Browns offense is to constantly change the
Speaker 1: picture for a quarterback who struggles to see it. And
Speaker 1: number two always have answers for Jerry Judy and Elijah Moore.
Speaker 1: And number three is to match their strength at guard
Speaker 1: with our strength at defensive tackle. Strength on strength here,
Speaker 1: I'd be stunned if the Browns approach isn't to run,
Speaker 1: run some more, especially if it's raining and look thirty
Speaker 1: second in run success rate. That's something you probably invite.
Speaker 1: But Jerome Ford is like Jerry Judy in the sense
Speaker 1: that he has some gidea up to his game. My
Speaker 1: number one goal is to prevent the explosives from those
Speaker 1: two guys. Jerome Ford has six explosive runs this season.
Speaker 1: He has a sixty six yard touchdown run. We can't
Speaker 1: allow those. He averages five and a half yards per carry.
Speaker 1: Best kind of his game, it's the three runs that
Speaker 1: don't get much. Then he springs the fourth run, just
Speaker 1: not quite as frequently as Barry Sanders did. Right, and
Speaker 1: on your wins, you create long down distances. That's when
Speaker 1: you get into your bag of coverages. You institute your
Speaker 1: rush games for a quarterback that struggles to see it
Speaker 1: and a line that has a lot of changes that
Speaker 1: can cause some communication issues.
Speaker 2: Get your takeaways, get your field position.
Speaker 1: Like the only time I remember us having a short
Speaker 1: field is the Patriots game, right that they got the
Speaker 1: stripsack on Drake May and then we had the touchdown
Speaker 1: like two plays later. I feel like we haven't had
Speaker 1: short fields at all the whole year.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: If there's a strength of your team for the Browns,
Speaker 1: it's the offensive line. But again it's not been the
Speaker 1: same production because if you peel back the curtain, I
Speaker 1: mean Joel Potonio, Wyatt Teller were the best guard combo
Speaker 1: and football for years and they still probably are. Like
Speaker 1: in the conversation, Ethan Posik was a hot commodity and
Speaker 1: free agency and a good player in the middle in
Speaker 1: the pivot. Jack Conklin was one of the game's best
Speaker 1: right tackles in football for a while well, and then
Speaker 1: the left tackles in for Jeddrick Wills, it's Germaine of Fetti,
Speaker 1: the backup. The smallest guy on the line is three
Speaker 1: hundred and ten pounds and that's Conklin. They're big guys
Speaker 1: that want to push you around, and that's where I
Speaker 1: think Jordan Brooks's ability to impact the rush lanes as
Speaker 1: a blitzer, how they use chopping, various roles and overloads
Speaker 1: and sim pressures. By the way, Chop Robinson is a superstar, right,
Speaker 1: we all agree.
Speaker 2: On that he's going to be. He's that he's got
Speaker 2: that movement. Man. We've seen so many pass not a lot.
Speaker 1: We've seen a few pass which was coming to the
Speaker 1: league and just move differently right away. We got one
Speaker 1: of them now. Cannot wait to watch him get back
Speaker 1: with you in Phillips next season. I think you can
Speaker 1: really challenge their lateral movement skills and recognition with those
Speaker 1: games that you could run with Steeler and Campbell setting
Speaker 1: those picks, and then you have the speed from Chop
Speaker 1: and JB. That's been the beauty of the mighty pass rush.
Speaker 1: Their speed with the size and strength of ninety two
Speaker 1: to ninety three to complement each other. And don't forget
Speaker 1: Benito Jones, who to me has played his way into
Speaker 1: garnering a long term role within this defense to bring
Speaker 1: it back to the size and what I assume will
Speaker 1: be a concerted effort to run the ball off the edge.
Speaker 1: I've been so impressed by Quinton Bell's run defense could
Speaker 1: be a nice workload for him to fight through that size.
Speaker 1: They have the polers, the tight ends, the split flow
Speaker 1: action to just go out and win some rundowns and
Speaker 1: create some second down longs for Chop Probinson, Dependazier's back
Speaker 1: and go rush the quarterback for posterity. Their past block
Speaker 1: efficiency scores are bad.
Speaker 2: It's bad.
Speaker 1: Ninety four to one for a Feti is well below
Speaker 1: the threshold. Ninety seven six for Bentonio is like good,
Speaker 1: but it's like not great, and then same for Post
Speaker 1: ninety seven point six. You want your centers to be
Speaker 1: above ninety eight, but it's close enough. Teller ninety seven
Speaker 1: point five is right on that fringe again, and then
Speaker 1: Conklin ninety five point eight. I should note he's fifth
Speaker 1: and run block win rate, and further, he's off total
Speaker 1: knee reconstruction from week one injury last year, and each
Speaker 1: week he looks more and more.
Speaker 2: Like the old Jack Conklin.
Speaker 1: But that pass block efficiency score is not very good,
Speaker 1: so you can get him in pass protection. To me,
Speaker 1: it's Quintin bell on rundowns and Chop Probins, not pass
Speaker 1: downs against him. And again all those are under the
Speaker 1: threshold of what's been good pass protection. So the goal
Speaker 1: should be to shut these guy out, like for real,
Speaker 1: for real, dog, let's go ahead and pivot here.
Speaker 2: I don't have any more additional parts on this Browns offense.
Speaker 1: I wanted to get through that as quick as I
Speaker 1: possibly could and get to the Dolphins offense versus the
Speaker 1: Browns defense, which as a scheme. If you want to
Speaker 1: see a coach who knows what he wants to do
Speaker 1: and does it until the wheels fall off, that's Jim Schwartz.
Speaker 1: You guys are familiar with fire zones. Yeah, it's essentially
Speaker 1: a five man rush with a three to three second
Speaker 1: and third level matching kind of like in soccer that
Speaker 1: doesn't show a post player off the snap, or they
Speaker 1: can rotate their coverage to get different guys into the post.
Speaker 1: It can look like man, it can be man match,
Speaker 1: but it's likely a zone at its heart that brings
Speaker 1: a rusher and replaces that rusher with a dropper. So
Speaker 1: kind of like when you see Benito Jones peeling back
Speaker 1: into the hook zone, that's a fire zone. So they
Speaker 1: can dress it up with six or seven or even
Speaker 1: eight on the line of scrimmage. They can sim it.
Speaker 1: They can still bring more than you can block, so
Speaker 1: it's imperative for tu to be sharp at the line
Speaker 1: of scrimmage pre snap. By the numbers, there are ninth
Speaker 1: and blitz rate at twenty nine percent and that comes
Speaker 1: the twenty eight percent pressure rate, third in the NFL.
Speaker 2: So they cook up your quarterback pretty good.
Speaker 1: Now you'd think that comes with splash plays, right, But
Speaker 1: they have only thirty seven sack which is fine, But
Speaker 1: it's the middle of the packets fifteenth and just four
Speaker 1: picks and only the Giants have fewer, and they're one
Speaker 1: of five teams that has just six or fewer picks
Speaker 1: on the entire year. They do allow four and a
Speaker 1: half yards per carrying one hundred and twenty seven yards
Speaker 1: per game on the ground. But let's make no mistakes
Speaker 1: about it. This is a good defense that's well coached.
Speaker 1: You won't see it by the three and twelve record
Speaker 1: or by the game you watch against the Broncos a
Speaker 1: few weeks back, but they can cause some issues on
Speaker 1: this side of the football.
Speaker 2: How do you attack it? Now?
Speaker 1: I think we have the operation to expose some of
Speaker 1: the stuff they do that makes them vulnerable. We have
Speaker 1: the best quick game quarterback in the NFL, and those
Speaker 1: fire zone blitzes, you can vacate short areas of the
Speaker 1: field and create real matchup problems. And that's why I
Speaker 1: think John news Smith could be poised for a big
Speaker 1: day in this one and Jalen Waddle if he's on
Speaker 1: the field. But really that's every game, right because Smith
Speaker 1: and Waddle two of the most efficient players in the
Speaker 1: league in terms of their targets what they do with them,
Speaker 1: and that's where the Dolphins have been successful.
Speaker 2: Throwing to those two guys.
Speaker 1: Devon h Chan and pretty much everybody else has been
Speaker 1: a negative operation this year. It's a great week to
Speaker 1: have Tron and Kendall coming off a great performance and
Speaker 1: having two veterans against a defense that wants to confuse
Speaker 1: your protection in a way that creates one on one
Speaker 1: opportunities for Miles Garrett, who can be a grinch out
Speaker 1: there as much like Patrick Paul and think he's gonna
Speaker 1: be a really good left tackle in this league for
Speaker 1: a long time. There's like five guys in this league
Speaker 1: that can neutralize Miles Garrett, and Toront Armstead's one of
Speaker 1: those guys. So I'm glad he's playing the Big Three
Speaker 1: versus Brown's defense. Number One, you have to decipher the
Speaker 1: exotic looks, not the erotic looks like we heard on
Speaker 1: a podcast a couple weeks ago. Here, you don't correct
Speaker 1: your guest, but that was funny if you know what
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. If not, we're gonna let you guys
Speaker 1: figure it out. Number one, decipher the exotic looks. So
Speaker 1: we covered the process and structure of the defense to
Speaker 1: continue it. They play cover one thirty four percent of
Speaker 1: the time, which is the second highest rate in the league.
Speaker 1: So if you want to take your deep shots, this
Speaker 1: could be a shot a chance for that, and I
Speaker 1: think we saw a lot of that last week. Personally,
Speaker 1: it used to be punishable by long touchdown if you
Speaker 1: dared played man coverage against the Dolphins, but this year
Speaker 1: has not been as effective. Tua's passer rating is down
Speaker 1: from fourth against man coverage to sixteenth this year, and
Speaker 1: the biggest difference is targeting. Tyreek Waddle actually beats man
Speaker 1: coverage at a better rate this year. He has a
Speaker 1: higher yards per target and a higher passer rating against
Speaker 1: man coverage, but Reek's yard per target against man coverage
Speaker 1: is down from ten point one last year to five
Speaker 1: point two.
Speaker 2: This year, you talk.
Speaker 1: About losing the step, losing some juice, losing some gusto.
Speaker 1: It's right there. The proopose in the putting half the
Speaker 1: production against man coverage, which is daring you to beat
Speaker 1: them yourself. We'll circle back to this in the second key,
Speaker 1: but I thought it was important to detail the Browns
Speaker 1: coverage structure to round that out. They run Cover three
Speaker 1: thirty percent of the time, so you're basically two thirds
Speaker 1: of the time to side from between Cover one and
Speaker 1: Cover three, which is the smoothest disguise you can possibly
Speaker 1: operate from right. It's kind of the same responsibilities. It's
Speaker 1: just a little bit of a variation. We do plenty
Speaker 1: of that show one bail into three, and we saw
Speaker 1: the Jets do a lot of that against TUA and
Speaker 1: just went to work pounding out the intermedia and short
Speaker 1: perimeter throws against that coverage.
Speaker 2: So when it is Cover three and they.
Speaker 1: Back up and get their depth, you can attack that
Speaker 1: area of the field. I tend to think the Browns
Speaker 1: will play up and challenge us at the line of
Speaker 1: scrimmage and attempt to confuse our protection assignments and play the
Speaker 1: quick game and be a little bit more vulnerable vertically
Speaker 1: because I feel like they might think that we can't
Speaker 1: do that because we haven't done it this year that much.
Speaker 1: So this feels like a spot where you again could
Speaker 1: find the deep ball, but we've been tailing that all
Speaker 1: year and we haven't had that deep ball opportunities too often,
Speaker 1: especially if you catch them in a bad coverage like
Speaker 1: the Broncos is a couple of weeks back. They ran
Speaker 1: that inverted two look, which is your safety's come down,
Speaker 1: and played the short the curl flat or the cloud
Speaker 1: whatever you call the cover two underneath area and the
Speaker 1: cornerbacks flip back and rotate into your deep halves, and
Speaker 1: they got burned up top on a third and eleven
Speaker 1: from inside the five yard line. That just ran Marvin
Speaker 1: Mims right down the scene from the slot and he
Speaker 1: ran right past their defense for a ninety seven yard
Speaker 1: touch on or whatever that was. I just don't think
Speaker 1: it's in Jim Schwartz's DNA to have the game come
Speaker 1: to him. He's aggressive, and I see no reason to
Speaker 1: expect that to change this week. And if we get Wattle,
Speaker 1: that makes it pretty big difference, because well, yeah, he's
Speaker 1: one of the most efficient receivers in the league again, Like,
Speaker 1: how about this? Did you know Waddle has been targeted
Speaker 1: eight times on third and long this year and he's
Speaker 1: converted six of them for first downs.
Speaker 2: It's our go to receiver rate there.
Speaker 1: It's a third and seven plus and he's usually doing
Speaker 1: that on routes they're trying to take away, like outside
Speaker 1: leverage against an outbreaker, and he still wins that. So
Speaker 1: Waddle is a key. He's going to be a key
Speaker 1: here for a long time. And it feels crazy to
Speaker 1: say this, but I feel like he's entering vastly underrated
Speaker 1: territory in terms of what he is as a player.
Speaker 1: I see people say, like this is at number one receiver,
Speaker 1: he's on top twenty, Like yeah, dude, all that stuff
Speaker 1: that he does is still in there. This's a guy that,
Speaker 1: when he was properly featured, had fourteen hundred yards, Like
Speaker 1: he's an elite player.
Speaker 2: Back to the main thing.
Speaker 1: Sixteen percent Cover two and they love to dress up
Speaker 1: how to get there. There's eight percent quarters, five percent
Speaker 1: cover six. So they'll do some extra stuff, but it's
Speaker 1: mostly cover one and cover three.
Speaker 2: What are we getting at here?
Speaker 1: Well, Jim Schwartz has coached football since I was two
Speaker 1: years old. I'm thirty seven years old. He has a
Speaker 1: deep menu and he unfer all of it. And this
Speaker 1: team plays this scheme very well. They've really struggled on offense,
Speaker 1: but this defense is not a joke. Garrett versus Armsteads,
Speaker 1: Tyson versus holy Field, best on best. If Tran wins
Speaker 1: that matchup, it tilts the entire game. And my expectation
Speaker 1: is that te Staid is that he wins against whoever
Speaker 1: he goes up again, so I think he will. He
Speaker 1: shut down Nick Bosa last week. He climbed and defeated
Speaker 1: Fred Warner time and time again in the running game.
Speaker 1: This is a Hall of Fame talent we're talking about
Speaker 1: here against another guy who's for sure already you know,
Speaker 1: basically got his measurements for the gold jacket coming up.
Speaker 1: That's Marquee football while we love it, but also keep
Speaker 1: an eye on Dalvin Tomlinson and Michael Hall inside. They're
Speaker 1: both wicked pass rushers with a good combo of first
Speaker 1: step quickness and power. Especially Tomlinson. Man, he's one of
Speaker 1: those freaks of nature that's three hundred and twenty five pounds,
Speaker 1: but he moves like a gymnast, like I bet he
Speaker 1: can do the splits. Hall is like that too, but
Speaker 1: at three hundred pounds. Because they're so adept at that.
Speaker 1: Schwartz loves to peel them into the hook zone on
Speaker 1: those fire zones undercut stuff, and then they have to
Speaker 1: incorporate Jeremiah Wusa Koramoa, who's the modern day linebacker athlete
Speaker 1: in terms of how he moves both vertically and down hill.
Speaker 2: But he hasn't played in a while.
Speaker 1: Stefanski said that he's week to week last week, so
Speaker 1: we could see him back for this game. But I
Speaker 1: kind of always wonder, like, why, what's the point with
Speaker 1: two games to go?
Speaker 2: That's a key.
Speaker 1: I think that he makes that front rush drop all
Speaker 1: tied together better than anybody else on that side. All
Speaker 1: of that athleticism, all of that strength, all of that
Speaker 1: pass rush in a system that they've been playing in
Speaker 1: for a while, it's a challenge, especially for your communication.
Speaker 1: Brewer has to be one of the best, or has
Speaker 1: been one of the best helpers in the entire league
Speaker 1: in pass pro. And if I had to guess, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna guess that they're gonna try to put Brewer against
Speaker 1: a nose tackle head up at a zero technique like
Speaker 1: a Tomlinson and try to have him deal with power
Speaker 1: to try to create isolations on the perimeter for Toront
Speaker 1: Armstead and Miles Garrett or Shelby Harris off the other side.
Speaker 1: But he's also missed some games as well, or recently,
Speaker 1: I should say. I think it was a great sign
Speaker 1: to see Isaiah Win step in and play as well
Speaker 1: as he did, and quite frankly the entire offensive line.
Speaker 1: That was a physical game from the Boys, and if
Speaker 1: they do that, they're going to be tough to beat.
Speaker 1: But it'll be imperative for two to decide for quickly
Speaker 1: what he sees for the guys up front, to get
Speaker 1: surge in the running game and communicate their protection assignments
Speaker 1: against the many looks of Jim Schwartz. They haven't played
Speaker 1: the Niners, they haven't played the Rams, Packers or Texans,
Speaker 1: but they did put the Bengals twice, which is somewhat
Speaker 1: a comparable scheme here, somewhat not necessarily, and I think
Speaker 1: the Burrow plays similar to to US. I want to
Speaker 1: see what they did against Joe Burrow to see what
Speaker 1: they might do against Tua. They blitzed him twenty one
Speaker 1: percent of the time in the first meeting and then
Speaker 1: seventeen percent in the second meeting, So maybe it's fewer
Speaker 1: blitzers and what we're used to. We shall see. This
Speaker 1: is the most fun matchup of the game. Let's go
Speaker 1: ahead and take a break right there, come back and
Speaker 1: do segment three, Keys two and three versus the Browns defense.
Speaker 1: Big picture, what's at stake, range of outcomes, keys to victory,
Speaker 1: all of that. Next Draft Time podcast, your host Travis Wingfield,
Speaker 1: brought to you by AutoNation. I hope all of your
Speaker 1: Christmas is We're Mary. All of the holidays however you celebrate,
Speaker 1: We're fantastic. Plenty of family time, football, presence, food, all
Speaker 1: the fun stuff that we love this time of year,
Speaker 1: like December, the entire month of December when you have
Speaker 1: young ones.
Speaker 2: At least for me, Man, it has really ratcheted up.
Speaker 1: How much better this time of year is than any
Speaker 1: other time of year, especially in South Florida when the
Speaker 1: weather's perfect. But man, just seeing my kids like go
Speaker 1: crazy over Christmas lights and the gifts. My son got trucks,
Speaker 1: trucks and more trucks. And for those of you that
Speaker 1: are not from the Pacific Northwest. There was you know,
Speaker 1: like how baseball teams have their local commercials. The Seattle
Speaker 1: Mariners had legendary slugger. Jay Buhner is the spokesperson for
Speaker 1: Northwest Motorsports where they have trucks, trucks and more trucks.
Speaker 1: And he'd always say stop buying Northwest Motor Sports and
Speaker 1: tell him the Bone Sentchuck because his nickname was the Bone.
Speaker 2: So my son is the Bone.
Speaker 1: He is truck trucks, more trucks, because all he got
Speaker 1: for Christmas was a garbage truck, was a RC truck
Speaker 1: where monster trucks, where race trucks.
Speaker 2: All he got was.
Speaker 1: Rocks, rocks and more trucks on River Road in Pewalla,
Speaker 1: and tell them the Bone sent Chuck and all of
Speaker 1: that sound engineering is like flames and cool trans So
Speaker 1: what you could expect from the Bone, right. One of
Speaker 1: my lifelong dreams is to go to Northwest mater Sports
Speaker 1: and say I'm here for a truck and the Bone
Speaker 1: sent me one of these days, one of these days.
Speaker 1: Key number two against the Cleveland Browns defense is to
Speaker 1: be privy of the stars Miles Garrett and Denzel Ward,
Speaker 1: picking it back up from the first paragraph and key
Speaker 1: number one. Ward is one of the few cornerbacks in
Speaker 1: the league who can draw consistent shadow roles within the
Speaker 1: game plan. He is very, very good, smart player with
Speaker 1: elite change of direction skills, ball skills, knows how to
Speaker 1: play with physicality and win to back off. He can press,
Speaker 1: he can mirror. He's the reason they play as much
Speaker 1: man coverage as they do now. Martin Emerson and Cam
Speaker 1: Mitchell Nope, Danny DeVito Meme, Nope. I don't like that
Speaker 1: they've had tougher years at the other two cornerback spots.
Speaker 1: Ward allows a fifty percent catch rate and just an
Speaker 1: eighty two passer rating against when he's in coverage. He
Speaker 1: is a true lockdown number one cornerback, and with all
Speaker 1: that man coverage and the way they mix up the front,
Speaker 1: I think some of your best matchups are tight ends
Speaker 1: and backs on safeties and linebackers. Especially if Coromoa cannot go,
Speaker 1: his replacement has been Jordan Hicks. He runs the green
Speaker 1: dot now and then elevating in his position is Mohammu Diabate.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I got that right, but I
Speaker 1: hope I did. I apologize filling in at the other spot.
Speaker 1: They love to bring in Grant Delpit into the rush equation,
Speaker 1: and when they do that, it can indicate man coverage roles,
Speaker 1: or you can get a matchup where he wheels out
Speaker 1: and has to cover Devon eight Chan, which I like
Speaker 1: that matchup against their safety as well. If there is
Speaker 1: no Wattle, I think it's a big opportunity to target
Speaker 1: those two guys John Neu Smith and Devon eight Chan.
Speaker 1: But to the larger point, Ward and Garrett are game changers,
Speaker 1: and I think sometimes you have to ask your guys
Speaker 1: to go up against their best and beat their best,
Speaker 1: and we have that. Toront Armstead hasn't been that way
Speaker 1: for Tyreek Kill this year, but that's what you pay
Speaker 1: him that money for, is to beat the top cornerbacks
Speaker 1: in the league. Delpit can be had man. He's a
Speaker 1: penalty machine. He's over aggressive. After what we saw in
Speaker 1: the Houston game. If they do go Ward on Hill,
Speaker 1: I'm not taking those contested opportunities ever against an elite
Speaker 1: cornerback because it resulted in three picks last time we
Speaker 1: tried that against man coverage. Now Waddle on any of
Speaker 1: the cornerbacks, I love that a matchup, so I'd even
Speaker 1: look to have Malik Washington in an expanded role that way.
Speaker 1: Key number three is just protect the football. That could
Speaker 1: be the entire segment right there. Just protect the football.
Speaker 1: I say it's going to be a shorter version here,
Speaker 1: and I think when it comes down to this, if
Speaker 1: the Dolphins can play a smart, clean game where they
Speaker 1: limit mistakes, penalties and protect the football, I think they
Speaker 1: can go to Cleveland in a must win spot and
Speaker 1: wipe the floor with them. The turnover numbers on the
Speaker 1: Browns this year are wild. They have a league high
Speaker 1: twenty picks they've thrown. They've gotten the second fewest picks,
Speaker 1: taking away four of their own. They're thirty first and
Speaker 1: turnovers and twenty eighth enforcing them.
Speaker 2: It's not supposed to be cold, but it could be wet.
Speaker 1: Ball security has been much better of late in terms
Speaker 1: of ball carriers. The last true fumble we lost outside
Speaker 1: of a sack fumble or a failed exchange between the
Speaker 1: backup quarterback and the backup running back against the Patriots
Speaker 1: was actually where he mostarts fumble in Buffalo, which if
Speaker 1: that doesn't happen, maybe we're in the playoffs right now.
Speaker 2: I digress.
Speaker 1: So that type of ball security, good process for TUA
Speaker 1: being where we're supposed to be as eligibles.
Speaker 2: These are all.
Speaker 1: Among the keys within the keys this week, they don't
Speaker 1: take it away very often.
Speaker 2: Don't let them start this week. What's at stake?
Speaker 1: You guys know how this goes, We will know by
Speaker 1: kickoff whether this game has any meeting to it. In fact,
Speaker 1: you'll wake up Sunday knowing whether that's the case or not.
Speaker 1: A Chargers loss or a Broncos loss Saturday means we
Speaker 1: have life regardless of what happens on Sunday.
Speaker 2: And then we have the idea.
Speaker 1: Will the Chiefs play their starters against the Broncos in
Speaker 1: Week eighteen? I think it sounds like they might not,
Speaker 1: although it will be twenty five days between their last
Speaker 1: game and the divisional game if they do that, so
Speaker 1: maybe they'll start play a quarter.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: We saw the Dolphins, you know, I don't think it's
Speaker 1: an automatic win, if you know, if that's what you
Speaker 1: see with Denver and Case again, I think that they
Speaker 1: could play some guys because of that twenty five day
Speaker 1: rest off. It's a lot of time for your number
Speaker 1: ones to not play and Hey, we had the same
Speaker 1: situation against the Buffalo Bills back in twenty twenty, and
Speaker 1: they played Josh Allen for one half of football and
Speaker 1: beat US fifty six to twenty. I think the Broncos
Speaker 1: team and this year is about the same as the
Speaker 1: Dolphins in twenty twenty. Ideally the Colts lose this week,
Speaker 1: but I'm not sure the Giants would take a win
Speaker 1: even if you gave it to them, because they're in
Speaker 1: line for the number one pick now. Dable seems to
Speaker 1: have had a full blown meltdown last week, so maybe
Speaker 1: they have like one more in them, and hopefully it's
Speaker 1: this week. And if Richardson decides to throw thirty percent,
Speaker 1: like it's always possible. But I like the idea of
Speaker 1: beat the Jets. Broncos lose to the Chiefs and that's
Speaker 1: all we need if that happens, I actually like our
Speaker 1: chances in Week eighteen, But then you add mac Jones
Speaker 1: having to beat the Colts. I like that a lot less.
Speaker 1: Or if the Chargers lose to the Patriots, which spoiler
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick that, I actually think that will happen.
Speaker 1: I then losing to the Raiders in Week eighteen don't
Speaker 1: like that either. So go Giants, go Bengals, and then
Speaker 1: go Chiefs. In Week eighteen, you get those three results.
Speaker 1: You beat Cleveland the Jets, you get a trip to
Speaker 1: Orchard Park first week of the playoffs. Since overmatches that
Speaker 1: sounds hey, like Allen has two hand injuries.
Speaker 2: We took them to the brink back in November.
Speaker 1: We almost beat them two years ago in that same
Speaker 1: spot with a quarterback that can't play this level. It's
Speaker 1: but also it would be another big game, a road
Speaker 1: environment and experience to bank, which to me has value.
Speaker 1: The range of outcomes for Dolphins and Browns, the DTR
Speaker 1: experiment should already be over with. And then what Bailey's appy,
Speaker 1: So the range of outcomes for the Browns without Nick
Speaker 1: Chubb is no more than ten points. Guys, they scored
Speaker 1: six points against the Bengals. The Bengals, a team that
Speaker 1: has arguably the best quarterback in the league right now
Speaker 1: scoring thirty points a game, and is still seven to
Speaker 1: eight because they can't stop anybody on defense almost impossible
Speaker 1: to do, and the Browns couldn't score on that Weavers
Speaker 1: in his bag right now. I think DTR and possibly
Speaker 1: without a young quarterback's best friend David Njoku. Yeah, this
Speaker 1: is going to be an ugly showing for the Cleveland offense.
Speaker 1: So I'll say we win a twenty three to three game.
Speaker 1: I could see it being like thirty ten, but I
Speaker 1: think it'll rain. I think it could be a little
Speaker 1: bit sloppy. Twenty three to three. Dolphins win keys to victory,
Speaker 1: win that turnover battle.
Speaker 2: That should be easy.
Speaker 1: That they don't do very well in that job, and
Speaker 1: that proposition number two is to prevent explosive plays. Don't
Speaker 1: let them beat you with just some tomfoolry and number three,
Speaker 1: find offensive answers.
Speaker 2: Pre snap for Tua.
Speaker 1: Just be as sharp as you can pre snap to
Speaker 1: and get those Jim Schwartz fire zone blitz is settled
Speaker 1: before you snap the football.
Speaker 2: There you go.
Speaker 1: Tomorrow, we're gonna have Daniel Ojafusi from the Cleveland Browns
Speaker 1: beat Kyle Kraz taking a look at the next round
Speaker 1: of college football playoffs. We'll pick the games in much
Speaker 1: much more. Let's get out of here. Subscribe to the
