0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Two on the Move, Glin Deep Speedways, Peace do Hell.

0:00:05.760 --> 0:00:10.400
<v Speaker 2>From the Baptist Health Studios inside the Baptist Health Training Complex.

0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:14.720
<v Speaker 3>This is Drivetime with Travis Wingfield.

0:00:16.200 --> 0:00:19.440
<v Speaker 1>He's got my advand's in the playoffs.

0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:27.680
<v Speaker 4>What is up Dolphins? And welcome to the Draft Time Podcast.

0:00:27.960 --> 0:00:30.479
<v Speaker 4>I am your host, Travis Wingfield. And on today's show,

0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:33.960
<v Speaker 4>football against another team and gosh, it was fun as

0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:36.560
<v Speaker 4>hell out there. If Sergio dip we're here, he'd tell

0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:38.760
<v Speaker 4>you I was having the time of my life in

0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:42.400
<v Speaker 4>the stands, big plays, structurally sound defense, getting a challenge

0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:45.320
<v Speaker 4>from the Falcons front, a practice that started heavily in

0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:48.360
<v Speaker 4>favor of one side before evening out. On the day,

0:00:48.600 --> 0:00:50.360
<v Speaker 4>we heard from the number one player in the NFL

0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:53.239
<v Speaker 4>and Tyreek Hill. We also heard from Kalais Campbell. All

0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:56.120
<v Speaker 4>of that and more from the Baptist Health Studios inside

0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:58.120
<v Speaker 4>the Baptist Health Training Complex.

0:00:58.160 --> 0:00:58.760
<v Speaker 5>This is.

0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:06.720
<v Speaker 4>The Drivetime Podcast, taking a slight detour from our usual

0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:10.120
<v Speaker 4>drive Today, we're going to be practice note heavy. I

0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:13.520
<v Speaker 4>think I've struggled to describe this in the past, but

0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:16.920
<v Speaker 4>now I know exactly how to paint this picture. You're

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:20.000
<v Speaker 4>basically watching two football practices in the same amount of

0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:23.000
<v Speaker 4>time as one practice with both fields going in the

0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:26.080
<v Speaker 4>exact same time at the exact same pace. Double the

0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:30.720
<v Speaker 4>reps the one on ones alone are like there's barely

0:01:30.880 --> 0:01:33.400
<v Speaker 4>enough room on the fields for them to get all

0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:35.520
<v Speaker 4>their work in. They had to move the tight ends

0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:38.560
<v Speaker 4>and backs versus the safeties and linebackers at one point

0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:41.760
<v Speaker 4>because it was overlapping with the receivers in dB. So

0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:45.959
<v Speaker 4>it's more condensed space, which I guess makes for a

0:01:46.000 --> 0:01:48.760
<v Speaker 4>little bit more of an advantage for the defense since

0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:51.120
<v Speaker 4>they are covering so much space normally, So I guess

0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:53.800
<v Speaker 4>that's a positive. But what I'm trying to say is

0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:56.280
<v Speaker 4>there is an insane amount of football to try to

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.320
<v Speaker 4>watch at one time. That's why I said, I think

0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:02.480
<v Speaker 4>it's silly to a sign winners and losers on Twitter

0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:05.960
<v Speaker 4>today to each session because you can lock in on.

0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:09.160
<v Speaker 4>I mean, even when the Dolphins are out here by

0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:11.520
<v Speaker 4>themselves and I'm trying to do receivers and DBS and

0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:14.360
<v Speaker 4>O line, D line, you miss some reps because there's

0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:17.280
<v Speaker 4>overlap and there are now six of these sessions going

0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:20.000
<v Speaker 4>on at once on two fields, and if you're noting

0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:22.880
<v Speaker 4>it and trying to locate numbers on the far field

0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:26.720
<v Speaker 4>in a past rush situation where there is two walls

0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:29.840
<v Speaker 4>of humanity on either side of the drill, it can

0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:33.160
<v Speaker 4>be really difficult to get quality notes and observations and

0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:36.440
<v Speaker 4>evaluations on this stuff, but we try our best. And

0:02:36.480 --> 0:02:39.600
<v Speaker 4>with that said, I got one of those notes today

0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:43.600
<v Speaker 4>that reaffirmed what I'm doing here in terms of how

0:02:43.639 --> 0:02:45.840
<v Speaker 4>I see the game and how I provide notes on

0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:50.480
<v Speaker 4>these practices. Somebody asked me, are you getting practice film?

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:53.400
<v Speaker 4>And I'm like, no, I would like that, but no,

0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:56.239
<v Speaker 4>I don't watch the practice film. And he said, you're

0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:59.320
<v Speaker 4>so thorough. I wasn't sure if you were watching practice

0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:01.520
<v Speaker 4>film or just your recall was that good? And I

0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:04.400
<v Speaker 4>was like, well, you know, McDaniel did one time compare

0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:07.200
<v Speaker 4>my recall to Sean McVeigh. I say that in Jess,

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:09.519
<v Speaker 4>but he did one time. So I was kind of

0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:12.519
<v Speaker 4>feeling myself after that one, especially after the McVeigh comment.

0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:14.959
<v Speaker 4>But you know, I've got plenty of misses in these practices,

0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:16.800
<v Speaker 4>no doubt about that. I think I've probably tweeted some

0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:19.640
<v Speaker 4>things incorrectly here and there, but I do feel pretty

0:03:19.680 --> 0:03:22.679
<v Speaker 4>good about these notes we're bringing you every single day,

0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 4>and today, especially when there is a lot to take in,

0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:28.160
<v Speaker 4>and you would hope that that's where you shine that brightest.

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:30.800
<v Speaker 4>So I want to go down the positions here and

0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:34.280
<v Speaker 4>mention my observations. I'll plug in audio where I find

0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 4>it appropriate. I've got two players today, Tyreek and Kalays Campbell.

0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:39.840
<v Speaker 4>If that sounds good to y'all, we'll go ahead and

0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:41.240
<v Speaker 4>kick it off, and we're going to do it anyway

0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:43.120
<v Speaker 4>because it's my show and there's nobody here to tell

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:46.560
<v Speaker 4>me no. So the quarterbacks you surely seen by now,

0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 4>the long ball from Tua to Tyreek, play the hits.

0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:51.840
<v Speaker 4>Let's go ahead and break down the biggest splash play

0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:54.240
<v Speaker 4>of the day off the top. And the first thing

0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:56.520
<v Speaker 4>I want to point out is something I don't think

0:03:56.520 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 4>you'll get on any other podcast because Kyle's not here,

0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:02.600
<v Speaker 4>So that was the only choice for a podcast it

0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:05.080
<v Speaker 4>would possibly cover this. This is a fifty yard shot

0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.160
<v Speaker 4>and it was caught right around the goal line in stride,

0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:12.080
<v Speaker 4>just a picture perfect location from Tua to his star receiver,

0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:15.440
<v Speaker 4>Tyreek runs right through it, touchdown, celebration in the crowd,

0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:17.800
<v Speaker 4>the whole thing. It's what you expect now from this

0:04:17.839 --> 0:04:19.960
<v Speaker 4>team that all of a sudden is fun and explosive

0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:22.719
<v Speaker 4>and can do stuff like this after twenty years of

0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:26.520
<v Speaker 4>not having that. But the thing that really stood out

0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:29.520
<v Speaker 4>to me was the throw was to the field. And

0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:31.760
<v Speaker 4>we know this by now right draft time listeners. The

0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:34.560
<v Speaker 4>field is the wide side, the boundary is the short side.

0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:37.000
<v Speaker 4>And if you go back over the course of Tua's career,

0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:40.120
<v Speaker 4>and I don't harp on arm strength as much as

0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:42.159
<v Speaker 4>I think other folks do, because I don't view it

0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:44.240
<v Speaker 4>as more than like the sixth most important trait for

0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:48.320
<v Speaker 4>a quarterback, but there are moments when you can see

0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:51.479
<v Speaker 4>it show up right, and it's trying to throw vertical

0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:55.000
<v Speaker 4>shots down the field to the field to your number

0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:58.279
<v Speaker 4>one receiver. The receiver furthest out towards the perimeter, and

0:04:58.320 --> 0:05:00.479
<v Speaker 4>that's not really where Tua threw his d balls. If

0:05:00.520 --> 0:05:02.360
<v Speaker 4>you go back over all the home runs we've seen

0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:05.480
<v Speaker 4>in the last couple of years to tyreegue to waddle or otherwise,

0:05:05.839 --> 0:05:09.440
<v Speaker 4>there's usually a more condensed nature to the throw. What

0:05:09.480 --> 0:05:13.039
<v Speaker 4>does that mean. It's typically the X receiver to the boundary,

0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.599
<v Speaker 4>so the short side of the field without safety help

0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:17.919
<v Speaker 4>or with safety help, but it is a shorter throw

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.160
<v Speaker 4>because of the receiver is closer to the line scrimmage

0:05:20.240 --> 0:05:23.120
<v Speaker 4>or to the formation, I should say, and to the quarterback,

0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:26.520
<v Speaker 4>or it is to the field the wide side, and

0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:29.520
<v Speaker 4>it's the slot fade the number two or three receiver,

0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:32.800
<v Speaker 4>which is closer again to the formation. It condenses the

0:05:32.839 --> 0:05:36.760
<v Speaker 4>distance between the quarterback and the receiver. But this throw

0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:40.080
<v Speaker 4>to the field, to the one vertical down the field

0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:43.360
<v Speaker 4>for a fifty yard touchdown, I don't think I've seen

0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:45.600
<v Speaker 4>that before. I don't think I've seen him make that

0:05:45.640 --> 0:05:49.600
<v Speaker 4>throw successfully before, which to me showcases the improved arm

0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:54.080
<v Speaker 4>strength that I just don't think his previous motion or

0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:56.920
<v Speaker 4>mechanics or whatever you want to call it, I don't

0:05:56.920 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 4>think it provided this result that we got on what

0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:03.640
<v Speaker 4>day is it Tuesday? That setup or the setup for

0:06:03.640 --> 0:06:05.400
<v Speaker 4>that play was really cool too, because you guys remember

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:08.599
<v Speaker 4>last year. I do definitively because it bothered me so

0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:12.000
<v Speaker 4>much when Lamar Jackson had that long touchdown pass against US,

0:06:12.000 --> 0:06:14.600
<v Speaker 4>and I saw all these Ravens fans and even at

0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 4>National reporters coming out and being like, look at that

0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:20.039
<v Speaker 4>reverse pivot drop he did where he made the defense

0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:22.200
<v Speaker 4>think he was going lefty, and then he flipped it

0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:25.560
<v Speaker 4>back to his natural side, his right side and lets

0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:26.719
<v Speaker 4>it fly for the deep ball.

0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:29.880
<v Speaker 3>And I'm just mad online saying like Tuo has been

0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:30.920
<v Speaker 3>doing that all year.

0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:34.520
<v Speaker 4>He got that from Tua, and of course on this

0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:37.239
<v Speaker 4>play that's or rather I should say, you know, earlier

0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:39.760
<v Speaker 4>in the season, Tua did it multiple times. I forget

0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:42.200
<v Speaker 4>which plays exactly, but that was a Tua drop back,

0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:46.480
<v Speaker 4>a Mike McDaniel design dropped back for Tua, and we

0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:49.240
<v Speaker 4>saw Tua do it again on this play. So let's

0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:51.920
<v Speaker 4>go ahead and hear from Tyreek Hill, who gave us

0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:55.479
<v Speaker 4>further analysis on that touchdown and Tua's growth as a

0:06:55.520 --> 0:06:56.880
<v Speaker 4>deep ball thrower.

0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:58.159
<v Speaker 1>That was beautiful. Man.

0:06:58.520 --> 0:07:00.640
<v Speaker 6>We've been trying to hit that all camp against defense,

0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:03.760
<v Speaker 6>and unfortunately our defense has been doing a great job of,

0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:06.400
<v Speaker 6>you know, not giving us the correct look.

0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:07.920
<v Speaker 1>We came out here today, we.

0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:11.760
<v Speaker 6>Got the look that we wanted, and we obviously we

0:07:11.880 --> 0:07:14.120
<v Speaker 6>executed the play and to it through.

0:07:13.920 --> 0:07:18.560
<v Speaker 1>A that was a I don't know what y'all call that, man.

0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:20.560
<v Speaker 6>People can't no longer say that he can't throw the

0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:23.520
<v Speaker 6>ball deep, man, because that right there alone, man showed

0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:27.400
<v Speaker 6>like his improvement from when I first got here to now,

0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:28.560
<v Speaker 6>like's that's crazy.

0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:31.000
<v Speaker 1>That's light years man. So that's dope.

0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:33.480
<v Speaker 4>Man. I thought that part about the defense was really

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:37.520
<v Speaker 4>instructive because that was something I sort of speculated about

0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:41.440
<v Speaker 4>from the previous practices in the corners and safeties and

0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:44.840
<v Speaker 4>just the overall structure of the defense has really limited

0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 4>the Miami deep passing game from this offense, which again,

0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:50.240
<v Speaker 4>for like the fifth time in this training camp, I

0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:52.880
<v Speaker 4>said this on the podcast, was the deep the best

0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:55.840
<v Speaker 4>deep passing team in the NFL in twenty twenty three,

0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:58.440
<v Speaker 4>And we get some confirmation there from Tyreek Hill himself.

0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:01.680
<v Speaker 4>But they hit it in this one beautiful throw, beautiful play,

0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:05.800
<v Speaker 4>and gosh, that sure makes it fun. So Tua, you know,

0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:08.880
<v Speaker 4>even outside of this throw was surgical, and I should

0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.280
<v Speaker 4>say he was surgical outside of one throw he made.

0:08:11.640 --> 0:08:13.760
<v Speaker 4>But I'm glad they got it on tape because it

0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:17.080
<v Speaker 4>was actually really close to being kind of a sick

0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:19.360
<v Speaker 4>throw to be honest with you guys. The Falcons dialed

0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:22.320
<v Speaker 4>up this overload pressure on a third down, so we're

0:08:22.360 --> 0:08:24.880
<v Speaker 4>in it's like in the middle of the field too,

0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:27.360
<v Speaker 4>so there's not really you know, it's not Edi sack

0:08:27.400 --> 0:08:29.040
<v Speaker 4>and punt the ball away. It's like, well, try to

0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:30.720
<v Speaker 4>make a play because we're on the fringe of field

0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:32.920
<v Speaker 4>goal range and like fourth down, go for a territory,

0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:35.720
<v Speaker 4>but it's third long, so let this thing rip and

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:38.520
<v Speaker 4>the Falcons dial up this overload pressure and Tua saw

0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:40.679
<v Speaker 4>it and he alerted the offense. He was he was

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:43.520
<v Speaker 4>prepared for before the snap with a quick check, and

0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:46.240
<v Speaker 4>they had more rushers than we could block, which means

0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:48.760
<v Speaker 4>you are hot. It means you do not have more

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:51.320
<v Speaker 4>than two seconds to let that thing go, because if

0:08:51.400 --> 0:08:53.680
<v Speaker 4>they rush it accordingly, there's gonna be a guy that

0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:55.840
<v Speaker 4>goes unblocked, and you have to account for him as

0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:59.160
<v Speaker 4>the quarterback. And so sometimes quarterbacks to account for this

0:08:59.200 --> 0:09:03.160
<v Speaker 4>will drift away from their throw. And it's not I guarantee.

0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:05.000
<v Speaker 4>I haven't even read the comments, but I guarantee there's

0:09:05.000 --> 0:09:07.199
<v Speaker 4>comments about throwing off the back foot, and you hear

0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:11.120
<v Speaker 4>that and there's typically negative connotations that come with that.

0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:11.920
<v Speaker 3>It's not.

0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:14.679
<v Speaker 4>It's common practice for quarterbacks that do this when they

0:09:14.720 --> 0:09:17.240
<v Speaker 4>know they're hot. It buys them an extra fraction of

0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:20.520
<v Speaker 4>a second. And Tu in the past very successfully and

0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:24.040
<v Speaker 4>he throws this ball to River Craycraft where it's an inbreaker,

0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:26.280
<v Speaker 4>you know, a pretty common route on our offense, and

0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.720
<v Speaker 4>I thought it was going to be a big play

0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:31.560
<v Speaker 4>because it was open and there was a compromised defensive

0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.360
<v Speaker 4>backfield that was short on bodies because of all the

0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:38.040
<v Speaker 4>rushers they committed to the rush and River crak Craft

0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:40.480
<v Speaker 4>crossed his face on a cornerback and it would have

0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:42.720
<v Speaker 4>been one on one with the safety for a touchdown,

0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:45.160
<v Speaker 4>which that's not really his game, but that's what it was.

0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:48.320
<v Speaker 4>And the ball was on the outside shoulder and it

0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:50.680
<v Speaker 4>went right to the cornerback who kind of seemed like

0:09:50.679 --> 0:09:53.040
<v Speaker 4>he got flat footed and stuck in mud because of

0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:55.640
<v Speaker 4>this look and this route against the pressure, but the

0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:57.760
<v Speaker 4>ball found him. So it's almost like a you know,

0:09:57.880 --> 0:10:00.480
<v Speaker 4>Merry Christmas to me, like when a third basement catches

0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:02.800
<v Speaker 4>a hop where he closes his eyes and short hops,

0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:04.600
<v Speaker 4>you know, the sharp ground ball, and it's like, oh,

0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:05.240
<v Speaker 4>look what I found.

0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:06.720
<v Speaker 3>That's kind of what this reminded me of.

0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:10.360
<v Speaker 4>Here the same cornerback, Mike Hughes that got toasted on

0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:12.640
<v Speaker 4>the deep ball from two of the Tyreek.

0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:13.920
<v Speaker 3>So he gets some revenge there. Good for him.

0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:16.720
<v Speaker 4>So that was the peak and the valley, but everything

0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:20.160
<v Speaker 4>else in between was sharp, quick rhythm accurate finding his

0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:23.280
<v Speaker 4>outlets and checkdowns, a couple of touchdowns, and red zone

0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:25.720
<v Speaker 4>work like the way I've seen Tua get the ball

0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:27.560
<v Speaker 4>to backs and tight ends has been in like an

0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:29.800
<v Speaker 4>emphasis in camp, and I thought we saw more of

0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:32.560
<v Speaker 4>that today. But his next best throw was a freaking

0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:36.840
<v Speaker 4>laser to Kyrik McGowan, and it was between two Falcons defenders.

0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:39.680
<v Speaker 4>And I'm going to try to describe this for you guys,

0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:41.280
<v Speaker 4>but I didn't write it down very clearly.

0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:42.280
<v Speaker 3>So let's see how this goes.

0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:45.360
<v Speaker 4>But have you seen those quarterback drills where you know

0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:49.880
<v Speaker 4>they'll in passing camps or high school whatever, they'll essentially

0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:54.520
<v Speaker 4>get two large items what do you call them targets

0:10:54.880 --> 0:10:58.520
<v Speaker 4>that block out the quarterback's vision beyond them, like it

0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:01.280
<v Speaker 4>might as well be bed sheets strung up between like

0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:04.200
<v Speaker 4>a massive square of PVC pipe, And you leave a

0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:07.600
<v Speaker 4>small window in between these two squares, and the quarterback

0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:10.439
<v Speaker 4>is supposed to throw the football to meet the receiver

0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:13.800
<v Speaker 4>in that window between those two squares. That was the

0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:17.600
<v Speaker 4>throw that Tua made to McGowan, where he splits these

0:11:17.640 --> 0:11:20.040
<v Speaker 4>two defenders, he goes up and plucks it in traffic

0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:23.760
<v Speaker 4>for about twenty yards. That was impressive. Similar footwork and

0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:26.520
<v Speaker 4>drop back pattern with the reverse pivot step that I

0:11:26.520 --> 0:11:28.640
<v Speaker 4>talked about on the deep shot. He also had a

0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:31.720
<v Speaker 4>nice turkey hole shot to open up practice. Turkey hole.

0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:34.000
<v Speaker 4>I know that sounds kind of strange, but it's a

0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:36.800
<v Speaker 4>commonly used frame or commonly used phrase. I should say

0:11:37.559 --> 0:11:41.439
<v Speaker 4>for the vacancy between cover two, it's the underneath curl

0:11:41.480 --> 0:11:44.240
<v Speaker 4>flat corner and the half field safety. There's a room

0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:46.600
<v Speaker 4>between that spot there on the sideline, and that's what

0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:49.600
<v Speaker 4>Tua found to River cray Craft for about twenty yards.

0:11:49.800 --> 0:11:52.200
<v Speaker 4>Also hit cray Craft for a crossing route for about

0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:53.280
<v Speaker 4>twenty five yards.

0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:54.720
<v Speaker 3>He also had an eight yard.

0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:57.880
<v Speaker 4>Touchdown pass to River Craycraft, I mean go Koog's. He

0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:00.199
<v Speaker 4>also threw a five yard touchdown pass to Raheem down

0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:03.040
<v Speaker 4>on red zone work and his unit, you know, Dolphins

0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:06.360
<v Speaker 4>or Falcons or either side of the field had by

0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:08.520
<v Speaker 4>far the most red zone touchdowns. I think they had

0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:13.320
<v Speaker 4>a couple more touchdowns than anybody else. Cousins, Pennix, Thompson, White,

0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:14.280
<v Speaker 4>whoever it might have been.

0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:15.400
<v Speaker 3>They had the one.

0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:17.600
<v Speaker 4>Explosive or one of two explosives on the day. Penex

0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:19.760
<v Speaker 4>also hit a deep ball and to me there was

0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:21.719
<v Speaker 4>a clear line of who the best quarterback on the

0:12:21.760 --> 0:12:24.440
<v Speaker 4>field was the entire practice today. And I say that

0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:26.920
<v Speaker 4>after watching Kirk Cousins do what makes him the best

0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:29.280
<v Speaker 4>in the game. But it was tough sledding for him

0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:32.160
<v Speaker 4>and the Falcons early on. More on that in a moment.

0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:35.040
<v Speaker 4>Tua also drove the first team offense and a field

0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:37.520
<v Speaker 4>goal range during a two minute period at the end

0:12:37.600 --> 0:12:39.559
<v Speaker 4>of practice and they made a fifty yard kick from

0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:42.840
<v Speaker 4>Jason Sanders to quote unquote win the game. It was basically,

0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:44.640
<v Speaker 4>we have to get into field goal range, have to

0:12:44.679 --> 0:12:46.920
<v Speaker 4>get about forty yards to put ourselves in that spot

0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:50.000
<v Speaker 4>down by two one time out. They succeeded in doing so,

0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:51.840
<v Speaker 4>and on that drive to it made a nice little

0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:54.160
<v Speaker 4>improv play where he found Raheem Moster on a third

0:12:54.160 --> 0:12:56.520
<v Speaker 4>and long play and Raheem was able to kind of

0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:59.160
<v Speaker 4>find some space in the defense because Tua shifted around

0:12:59.160 --> 0:13:02.160
<v Speaker 4>the pocket, got off the spot and successfully evaded the

0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:05.600
<v Speaker 4>pressure to throw the ball to Raheem Moster, who converts

0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:07.400
<v Speaker 4>this third and ten, third and ten plus.

0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:08.640
<v Speaker 3>I'm not sure how many yards it was, but it

0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:10.199
<v Speaker 3>was more than ten yards. I thought.

0:13:10.400 --> 0:13:12.560
<v Speaker 4>He moved off the spot and created like we've seen

0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:14.880
<v Speaker 4>him do all camp long. I thought we saw the

0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:16.760
<v Speaker 4>work he put in from a mechanic and you know,

0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:19.920
<v Speaker 4>pop slash, easy gash, throwing on that deep shot down

0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:22.000
<v Speaker 4>the field. I thought we saw a pretty good command

0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:25.640
<v Speaker 4>because the run game was very effective too. And to

0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:27.760
<v Speaker 4>kind of go into that a little bit on the

0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:31.960
<v Speaker 4>offensive line, I heard this scuttle but about the offensive

0:13:32.000 --> 0:13:34.920
<v Speaker 4>line and after practice, and I don't know, man, I

0:13:35.240 --> 0:13:39.040
<v Speaker 4>just wish that we would learn from history a little bit,

0:13:39.080 --> 0:13:41.400
<v Speaker 4>you know, the Royal Wi as it were. Because the

0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:44.239
<v Speaker 4>Falcons had their entire team, I don't know if anybody

0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:46.600
<v Speaker 4>was down for them. And forgive me if I am

0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:49.920
<v Speaker 4>speaking out a class on that, but I didn't know anybody,

0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:53.120
<v Speaker 4>you know, that would be on the marquee, so to speak,

0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:55.720
<v Speaker 4>who wasn't practicing for the Falcons today. And we didn't

0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:58.000
<v Speaker 4>have our entire left side of the offensive line right

0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:00.560
<v Speaker 4>to Ron Armstead Isaiah when not practicing out there. We

0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:03.600
<v Speaker 4>also didn't have Jalen Waddle, not to mention on defense,

0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:06.280
<v Speaker 4>no Jordan Brooks, no Jaln Phillips, no Bradley Chubb, no

0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:09.720
<v Speaker 4>Jordan Poyer. We're down like eight or nine, big time guys,

0:14:10.200 --> 0:14:12.839
<v Speaker 4>and they weren't, and they still caught this work dog.

0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:15.400
<v Speaker 4>But back to the original point, like the one whose

0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:18.800
<v Speaker 4>name shall not be spoken, I'm just kidding, it's Omar, Like,

0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:20.520
<v Speaker 4>I get it, I know the stick, I know what

0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:20.960
<v Speaker 4>you're doing.

0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:22.800
<v Speaker 3>It's you know, it's a stephen a stick.

0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:26.840
<v Speaker 4>The Jalen Ramsey wearing a compression sleeve like selling panic Again,

0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:28.920
<v Speaker 4>I get it, I understand what you're doing. But he

0:14:28.920 --> 0:14:31.000
<v Speaker 4>says to me like this O line, ain't it? And

0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:33.320
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, they'll be fine, man, just chill, they'll be fine.

0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:35.040
<v Speaker 4>No game plan around it. And he looks at me

0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:36.960
<v Speaker 4>like I'm speaking Mandarin, and I'm like, bro, have you

0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:39.360
<v Speaker 4>not seen this before? Like what are we doing? Have

0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:40.320
<v Speaker 4>you not seen it?

0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:40.520
<v Speaker 3>Here?

0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:43.160
<v Speaker 4>For two years, we've heard the exact same complaints we saw.

0:14:43.920 --> 0:14:45.680
<v Speaker 4>What did everybody say going into the Charger game last

0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:47.280
<v Speaker 4>year when toront arms I was down for that game?

0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:50.360
<v Speaker 4>They can't block Bosa and Khalil Mack. Those guys got

0:14:50.400 --> 0:14:52.640
<v Speaker 4>shut out the entire game. We scored thirty six points. Like,

0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:55.840
<v Speaker 4>I don't understand how we still have these viewpoints when

0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:59.160
<v Speaker 4>they've been time and time again disproven. I don't get it.

0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:01.840
<v Speaker 4>You see it every in San Francisco. I know that

0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:04.200
<v Speaker 4>because I tracked every game we had their first round

0:15:04.200 --> 0:15:04.920
<v Speaker 4>pick for a couple of years.

0:15:04.920 --> 0:15:06.800
<v Speaker 3>When I'm like, offs have Lodge got some holes?

0:15:07.160 --> 0:15:09.640
<v Speaker 4>Didn't frigging matter, dude, there was just that's part of

0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:11.800
<v Speaker 4>the design of the offense. You see it every year

0:15:11.840 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 4>in Green Bay with Matt Lafleur. In that offense, they

0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:16.440
<v Speaker 4>get injured beyond belief and they still are productive. Like,

0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:20.160
<v Speaker 4>it drives me nuts. So if the line was so bad,

0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:23.280
<v Speaker 4>how come we had five explosive plays from the quarterback

0:15:23.480 --> 0:15:26.440
<v Speaker 4>and a constant surge in the running game. It reminds

0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:30.760
<v Speaker 4>me of the ESPN you know, GM whatever personnel department

0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:33.360
<v Speaker 4>survey where it's like, well, the Dolphins have Tyreek Hill,

0:15:33.400 --> 0:15:35.040
<v Speaker 4>but nobody else in their offense is top ten, And

0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:36.560
<v Speaker 4>how the hell were I number one in the NFL?

0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:41.040
<v Speaker 4>And everything doesn't math, dude, Like the sacks did pile

0:15:41.120 --> 0:15:42.160
<v Speaker 4>up late and they.

0:15:42.080 --> 0:15:42.520
<v Speaker 3>Kind of did.

0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:45.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but my god, man, the way I'm seeing the discourse,

0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:47.320
<v Speaker 4>you'd think this was a two thousand and nine offense.

0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:49.960
<v Speaker 4>They won the day comfortably, and this is the top

0:15:50.000 --> 0:15:52.240
<v Speaker 4>offense in the NFL. Like, I don't get what we're

0:15:52.280 --> 0:15:55.160
<v Speaker 4>doing and why we concern ourselves with the panic. I

0:15:55.200 --> 0:15:58.280
<v Speaker 4>get it from a, you know, selling papers perspective, but

0:15:58.360 --> 0:16:00.480
<v Speaker 4>otherwise I do not. I thought this was one of

0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:02.800
<v Speaker 4>Mike White's better practices of all training camp. He was

0:16:02.880 --> 0:16:05.560
<v Speaker 4>ripping some of those intermediate shots that makes this offense go.

0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:08.640
<v Speaker 4>But I thought Skylar Thompson really struggled in this practice,

0:16:08.640 --> 0:16:10.760
<v Speaker 4>missed some layups, and I thought reverted back to a

0:16:10.800 --> 0:16:12.360
<v Speaker 4>little bit of what we saw in the past of

0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:15.160
<v Speaker 4>getting stuck and just not moving the offense. I'm really

0:16:15.200 --> 0:16:17.600
<v Speaker 4>curious to see how tomorrow and the game both play

0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:20.000
<v Speaker 4>out for Skyler and Mike. Today kind of told me

0:16:20.360 --> 0:16:23.200
<v Speaker 4>battle back on after I thought Skyler had creism space

0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:23.720
<v Speaker 4>between he.

0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:24.800
<v Speaker 3>And Mike White.

0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:26.640
<v Speaker 4>Let's go ahead and take a break right there and

0:16:26.680 --> 0:16:28.480
<v Speaker 4>come back on the other side and get to the

0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:31.440
<v Speaker 4>rest of the position groups on the entire roster. We'll

0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:34.080
<v Speaker 4>do them all. That's next Draft Time podcast. Your host

0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:38.680
<v Speaker 4>Travis Wingfield, brought to you by Auto Nation, mention the

0:16:38.760 --> 0:16:41.320
<v Speaker 4>running game in the opening segment and the best running

0:16:41.360 --> 0:16:43.920
<v Speaker 4>back duo in the NFL, that's what I'm calling them,

0:16:44.320 --> 0:16:47.359
<v Speaker 4>had themselves a day. Raheem and eh Chan had explosives,

0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:50.680
<v Speaker 4>they cut passes, they scored touchdowns. I mentioned the scorers

0:16:50.720 --> 0:16:52.840
<v Speaker 4>through the air in the two a portion where he

0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:55.080
<v Speaker 4>made some really nifty moves at the point of attack

0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:57.520
<v Speaker 4>and had some big lanes to run through early in practice.

0:16:57.600 --> 0:17:00.640
<v Speaker 4>Every rep the Dolphins ran offensively early was successful one

0:17:00.680 --> 0:17:03.240
<v Speaker 4>like they have. Success rate was probably like ninety percent

0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:05.520
<v Speaker 4>through the first couple of two periods that he was

0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:08.560
<v Speaker 4>out there. Raheem was super shifty at the point of

0:17:08.560 --> 0:17:10.800
<v Speaker 4>attack and just kept putting himself in position to find

0:17:10.800 --> 0:17:12.920
<v Speaker 4>the gap, which again, we're there all day. I thought

0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:15.639
<v Speaker 4>we saw a mid season heame today, especially on that

0:17:15.720 --> 0:17:17.640
<v Speaker 4>catch to convert the third and long play I talked

0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:19.640
<v Speaker 4>about in the two minute. He and Devon had some

0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:21.960
<v Speaker 4>really impressive lanes to run through early in practice, and

0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:24.680
<v Speaker 4>I gotta say, I get why, but the refs are

0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:28.119
<v Speaker 4>very tight with the whistle on tagoffs, because there was

0:17:28.160 --> 0:17:30.280
<v Speaker 4>a few of those where I'm like, I've seen this

0:17:30.320 --> 0:17:32.639
<v Speaker 4>guy run in games, and that is not a tackle

0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:34.920
<v Speaker 4>that will get him to the ground. And Hn also

0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:37.600
<v Speaker 4>had some runs in the kickoff return game that might

0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:40.480
<v Speaker 4>have gotten the distance. Malik Washington also looked pretty good

0:17:40.480 --> 0:17:42.920
<v Speaker 4>back their returning kicks. I don't think I put in

0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:45.200
<v Speaker 4>the notes, but Malik Washington had a crackback block on

0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:48.080
<v Speaker 4>Arnold Ebiqite. That was me and John jenmm are like,

0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:50.520
<v Speaker 4>oh shit, rook, that's a good block right there. So

0:17:50.880 --> 0:17:54.040
<v Speaker 4>Malik is as tough as nails man. They both Chan

0:17:54.240 --> 0:17:57.719
<v Speaker 4>and Raheem had runs around the corner where alec Ingold,

0:17:57.920 --> 0:17:59.480
<v Speaker 4>let's just say he was excited.

0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:03.000
<v Speaker 3>You might see a bowl in a rodeo or is

0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:06.000
<v Speaker 3>that what it is? Rodeo's bullfighting.

0:18:06.040 --> 0:18:08.960
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, but basically the red jersey was, you know,

0:18:09.200 --> 0:18:12.639
<v Speaker 4>the bullfighter for alec Ingold. He was dishing out punishment,

0:18:12.760 --> 0:18:15.639
<v Speaker 4>giving guys extra time in the ice baths tonight with

0:18:15.680 --> 0:18:17.720
<v Speaker 4>the way he was popping pads. In fact, a few

0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:19.960
<v Speaker 4>of our explosive plays off the edge were basically just

0:18:20.040 --> 0:18:23.879
<v Speaker 4>Alec and Julian Hill. You know what, this is a

0:18:23.880 --> 0:18:27.000
<v Speaker 4>good meme opportunity for you very talented photoshoppers out there.

0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:30.919
<v Speaker 4>Basically Alec and Julian started their own moving company today,

0:18:31.119 --> 0:18:33.960
<v Speaker 4>only instead of moving furniture, they're moving NFL.

0:18:33.640 --> 0:18:34.800
<v Speaker 3>Defenders off the ball.

0:18:35.000 --> 0:18:37.080
<v Speaker 4>Fun to watch those two guys dip into their contact

0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:40.480
<v Speaker 4>and run through people. Julian also caught some balls on team.

0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:43.560
<v Speaker 4>His strong camp continues. I also saw Alec during one

0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:45.879
<v Speaker 4>on ones get a stop on a linebacker, a step

0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:48.399
<v Speaker 4>on a linebacker, sorry, and stretch out his arms and

0:18:48.440 --> 0:18:50.919
<v Speaker 4>pluck a full speed catch with his hands on an

0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:53.920
<v Speaker 4>absolute fastball. He never ceases to amaze me because in

0:18:54.800 --> 0:18:57.879
<v Speaker 4>fullbacks just did not do that, and they really don't still.

0:18:58.000 --> 0:18:59.880
<v Speaker 4>It's pretty much just him and use check in Sam

0:18:59.880 --> 0:19:02.560
<v Speaker 4>for Cisco. Let's go ahead and get some more audio

0:19:02.600 --> 0:19:04.800
<v Speaker 4>here from Tyreek Hill, who touched on how he felt

0:19:04.840 --> 0:19:07.720
<v Speaker 4>the offense took a step forward on Tuesday.

0:19:08.480 --> 0:19:11.000
<v Speaker 6>Offensively, I feel like we took a step forward today.

0:19:11.280 --> 0:19:13.640
<v Speaker 6>You know, whether it's catching the ball, whether it's throwing

0:19:13.680 --> 0:19:16.200
<v Speaker 6>the ball, whether it's blocking. We all took a step

0:19:16.240 --> 0:19:19.920
<v Speaker 6>forward today. And you know, we held our self accountable

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:24.679
<v Speaker 6>in moments when you know, whenever whenever we failed the

0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:26.359
<v Speaker 6>offense like going dry.

0:19:26.720 --> 0:19:28.880
<v Speaker 1>You know. So that's one thing like we really want

0:19:28.880 --> 0:19:29.840
<v Speaker 1>to hone in on this year.

0:19:29.880 --> 0:19:32.920
<v Speaker 6>Man, Like, even if we have stale moments, we got

0:19:32.960 --> 0:19:35.280
<v Speaker 6>to find a way to you know, dig ourself out

0:19:35.520 --> 0:19:35.879
<v Speaker 6>out of that.

0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:38.159
<v Speaker 1>And today we've done a great zout of it.

0:19:38.359 --> 0:19:39.960
<v Speaker 4>Sorry, it was tough to get a beat on the

0:19:39.960 --> 0:19:43.639
<v Speaker 4>wide receivers today because no Waddle, no Obj, no Brax

0:19:43.680 --> 0:19:46.560
<v Speaker 4>and Barrios, And that could be three of your five,

0:19:47.119 --> 0:19:48.840
<v Speaker 4>three of your five or six guys you keep on

0:19:48.880 --> 0:19:51.520
<v Speaker 4>the roster. But Tyreek and River did what they do.

0:19:51.600 --> 0:19:54.120
<v Speaker 4>Could be the other two guys along with like Malik Washington.

0:19:54.440 --> 0:19:56.720
<v Speaker 4>But Reek had a bunch of plays, including the one

0:19:56.760 --> 0:19:59.359
<v Speaker 4>we covered. But damn it, River Craycraft just continues to

0:19:59.359 --> 0:19:59.840
<v Speaker 4>make plays.

0:19:59.840 --> 0:20:00.439
<v Speaker 3>Go so kooks.

0:20:00.640 --> 0:20:02.720
<v Speaker 4>It's also gotten to the point that the crew I

0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:06.080
<v Speaker 4>usually sit with can Jemmy, Goldie Cuno, those guys all

0:20:06.119 --> 0:20:08.240
<v Speaker 4>look at me with the biggest grins when River Creaycraft

0:20:08.280 --> 0:20:09.520
<v Speaker 4>makes a play, and I just have to give them.

0:20:09.800 --> 0:20:16.760
<v Speaker 2>That's another Washington State cougars. First all, everyone uses everyone

0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:19.520
<v Speaker 2>that has a cat, a big cat mascot uses that

0:20:19.600 --> 0:20:22.639
<v Speaker 2>grow after first downs, and that happened a whole bunch today.

0:20:22.760 --> 0:20:24.440
<v Speaker 2>I mentioned the chunk plays we heard two of the

0:20:24.520 --> 0:20:27.119
<v Speaker 2>other day talk about adapting to new pass catchers and

0:20:27.119 --> 0:20:29.639
<v Speaker 2>if he changes his location based upon the guy and

0:20:29.680 --> 0:20:32.120
<v Speaker 2>what's best for him, and he said, like Na, Son,

0:20:32.359 --> 0:20:33.760
<v Speaker 2>that's not what he said, but that's what I say.

0:20:33.880 --> 0:20:35.600
<v Speaker 2>He's throwing it to where it needs to be and

0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:39.000
<v Speaker 2>that includes timing and leverage the route. It's it's tenfold, right.

0:20:39.240 --> 0:20:41.280
<v Speaker 2>But a guy that is going to earn his trust

0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:43.800
<v Speaker 2>on those, a guy that has earned his trust on those.

0:20:44.080 --> 0:20:47.400
<v Speaker 2>The first touchdown maker of twenty twenty two, twenty twenty three,

0:20:47.480 --> 0:20:49.040
<v Speaker 2>rather River craycraft Man.

0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:51.160
<v Speaker 3>He caught a ball in one on ones. And here's

0:20:51.200 --> 0:20:51.600
<v Speaker 3>something else.

0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:53.439
<v Speaker 4>I hope people were paying attention to the flags on

0:20:53.480 --> 0:20:56.960
<v Speaker 4>the field because the refs let them things rain. On

0:20:57.040 --> 0:21:00.480
<v Speaker 4>the Atlanta Falcons, they were grabbing and holding all throughout

0:21:00.480 --> 0:21:02.080
<v Speaker 4>one on ones and in a team period, there was

0:21:02.119 --> 0:21:05.080
<v Speaker 4>a rep where I think if you asked River, you

0:21:05.080 --> 0:21:07.080
<v Speaker 4>know it wasn't his best release, but he kind of

0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:08.840
<v Speaker 4>got pinned to the perimeter on a move that just

0:21:08.880 --> 0:21:11.680
<v Speaker 4>didn't really get him separation. But he went up over

0:21:11.680 --> 0:21:14.359
<v Speaker 4>the defensive back who just mugged him and made the catch.

0:21:14.400 --> 0:21:16.760
<v Speaker 4>Now they ruled him down with a foot out of bounds,

0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:18.960
<v Speaker 4>but I didn't care because I still learned what I

0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:20.880
<v Speaker 4>needed to learn from the rep that if I put

0:21:20.920 --> 0:21:23.360
<v Speaker 4>eighty five, if I put the football on eighty five vicinity,

0:21:23.440 --> 0:21:24.399
<v Speaker 4>he gonna make the catch.

0:21:24.600 --> 0:21:25.639
<v Speaker 3>He is so dependable.

0:21:26.280 --> 0:21:28.760
<v Speaker 4>Willie Snead continues to get open. I saw there was

0:21:28.760 --> 0:21:30.520
<v Speaker 4>a comment about some drops. But there were some bad

0:21:30.520 --> 0:21:32.960
<v Speaker 4>throws to him too from Skyler. That's kind of where

0:21:32.960 --> 0:21:34.760
<v Speaker 4>I put the blame on those. But he gets open

0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:36.400
<v Speaker 4>to me, he's been about as good as he could

0:21:36.440 --> 0:21:38.040
<v Speaker 4>be with the time he's been here, like a week

0:21:38.040 --> 0:21:40.160
<v Speaker 4>and a half, whatever it's been. He did get a step,

0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:42.120
<v Speaker 4>he did get a step in space on one play,

0:21:42.119 --> 0:21:44.399
<v Speaker 4>but Skyler skipped it to him like he was skipping

0:21:44.480 --> 0:21:47.240
<v Speaker 4>rocks across across Lake Okuchobee.

0:21:47.359 --> 0:21:48.280
<v Speaker 3>That's a Florida lake.

0:21:48.400 --> 0:21:50.760
<v Speaker 4>Right. Do people go in lakes in Florida or do

0:21:50.800 --> 0:21:52.800
<v Speaker 4>you just avoid them because gators all over the place. Like,

0:21:52.840 --> 0:21:54.480
<v Speaker 4>I haven't been to a lake in Florida ever. I've

0:21:54.480 --> 0:21:57.600
<v Speaker 4>been to the ocean. Kicked him manatee once. That was terrifying.

0:21:57.960 --> 0:22:00.399
<v Speaker 4>But he skips this thing across the water. And he

0:22:00.520 --> 0:22:02.679
<v Speaker 4>was very frustrated with himself after the throw because it

0:22:02.720 --> 0:22:04.080
<v Speaker 4>was a pretty big miss on what could have been

0:22:04.119 --> 0:22:05.760
<v Speaker 4>a big play. You know who else is making some

0:22:05.800 --> 0:22:08.400
<v Speaker 4>plays as Anthony Schwartz. I thought he was impressive once

0:22:08.440 --> 0:22:11.639
<v Speaker 4>again today. All right, onto the offensive line here. My

0:22:11.720 --> 0:22:14.080
<v Speaker 4>first note is on Patrick Paul, who continues to really

0:22:14.080 --> 0:22:16.560
<v Speaker 4>catch my eye man like he had a rep the

0:22:16.680 --> 0:22:19.800
<v Speaker 4>rep of the day where Lorenzo Carter, a very good player,

0:22:19.840 --> 0:22:22.240
<v Speaker 4>tried to cross face on him and his first step

0:22:22.320 --> 0:22:25.280
<v Speaker 4>was like a get width step out to the left,

0:22:25.480 --> 0:22:27.359
<v Speaker 4>but then he threw the punch and it put Carter

0:22:27.480 --> 0:22:29.880
<v Speaker 4>on the ground and he finishes the pancake on top

0:22:29.920 --> 0:22:32.480
<v Speaker 4>of him with a punishing block that had me like ooh.

0:22:33.880 --> 0:22:36.200
<v Speaker 4>I was cheering up in the stands, like you can't

0:22:36.200 --> 0:22:38.320
<v Speaker 4>see that on a football field. Not get geeked if

0:22:38.320 --> 0:22:39.399
<v Speaker 4>you're a football nut.

0:22:39.880 --> 0:22:42.800
<v Speaker 3>He was a wall in the one.

0:22:42.680 --> 0:22:44.720
<v Speaker 4>On one portions of practice. In fact, I thought the

0:22:44.880 --> 0:22:46.880
<v Speaker 4>entire team did some work in those one on ones.

0:22:46.960 --> 0:22:49.960
<v Speaker 4>Rob Jones, a stonewall, Kendall Lamb looked awesome. And here's

0:22:49.960 --> 0:22:51.680
<v Speaker 4>a cool thing about Kendall Lamb. He was out on

0:22:51.720 --> 0:22:54.000
<v Speaker 4>the kickoff team right in the middle of the field

0:22:54.280 --> 0:22:56.200
<v Speaker 4>and he was talking about how when I came into

0:22:56.200 --> 0:22:58.240
<v Speaker 4>the league, it was I was on the wedge and

0:22:58.280 --> 0:22:59.560
<v Speaker 4>now here I am, at the end of my career

0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:01.879
<v Speaker 4>doing it again in like full circle. And I was like,

0:23:02.080 --> 0:23:03.639
<v Speaker 4>you know, I saw you do that and you basically

0:23:03.640 --> 0:23:05.879
<v Speaker 4>were picking up stunts out there, and he was like, exactly,

0:23:05.960 --> 0:23:08.760
<v Speaker 4>So he thinks that getting guys like him out there

0:23:08.760 --> 0:23:10.879
<v Speaker 4>can spring some big plays, but also that it kind

0:23:10.920 --> 0:23:13.520
<v Speaker 4>of helps him see the field from those stunt perspectives,

0:23:13.520 --> 0:23:16.119
<v Speaker 4>which I think can help at the tackle position. But

0:23:16.160 --> 0:23:18.439
<v Speaker 4>the Falcons did get their pressures. Let's not get that twisted.

0:23:18.440 --> 0:23:20.520
<v Speaker 4>I'm not here to tell you a fib on the podcast.

0:23:20.720 --> 0:23:23.280
<v Speaker 4>They got their pressures, and my notes tell me it

0:23:23.320 --> 0:23:25.240
<v Speaker 4>was a lot of their best interior guys. It was

0:23:25.320 --> 0:23:29.800
<v Speaker 4>Eddie Goldman, Grady Jarrett, Kntavia Street, David Anyamada condensed inside.

0:23:30.359 --> 0:23:33.639
<v Speaker 4>I think that collectively that's kind of how you have

0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:35.879
<v Speaker 4>to view it to get better. But the rough days

0:23:35.880 --> 0:23:39.320
<v Speaker 4>to me were Leah Miikenberg I thought got the best

0:23:39.320 --> 0:23:41.159
<v Speaker 4>of him a lot. I don't think Aaron Brewer had

0:23:41.200 --> 0:23:42.640
<v Speaker 4>his best ding we've seen him have in the past.

0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:44.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm really curious see how he bounces back tomorrow. I

0:23:44.960 --> 0:23:47.320
<v Speaker 4>thought Rob Jones was up and down. I didn't like

0:23:47.359 --> 0:23:50.600
<v Speaker 4>to work from Keyon Smith, Ryan Hayes, Jack Driscoll, who's

0:23:50.720 --> 0:23:53.040
<v Speaker 4>I think had a pretty rough camp, and Chase and

0:23:53.080 --> 0:23:55.119
<v Speaker 4>Hines pulled over a couple of times. So those are

0:23:55.119 --> 0:23:57.919
<v Speaker 4>the guys that were really struggling. I thought Austin Jackson

0:23:57.960 --> 0:24:00.280
<v Speaker 4>was really good especially in the running game and the

0:24:00.280 --> 0:24:02.040
<v Speaker 4>tight ends. We're at the point of attack on some

0:24:02.080 --> 0:24:05.000
<v Speaker 4>pretty good runs off that side. Durham as well, he

0:24:05.080 --> 0:24:06.760
<v Speaker 4>deserves to shout off for his blocking and also had

0:24:06.800 --> 0:24:09.840
<v Speaker 4>a few receptions. Let's go ahead and take our second

0:24:09.840 --> 0:24:11.920
<v Speaker 4>break rate there and come back on the other side

0:24:12.160 --> 0:24:13.639
<v Speaker 4>and do the defense. We'll kick it off with a

0:24:13.680 --> 0:24:16.760
<v Speaker 4>SoundBite from Kalais Campbell. That's next Draft Time podcast, your

0:24:16.760 --> 0:24:19.400
<v Speaker 4>host Travis Wingfield, brought to you by Autoation.

0:24:21.200 --> 0:24:22.520
<v Speaker 3>Let's go ahead and kick off.

0:24:22.320 --> 0:24:25.640
<v Speaker 4>Segment two with a SoundBite here from Kalais Campbell on

0:24:26.040 --> 0:24:28.600
<v Speaker 4>did you think you guys won the practice or do

0:24:28.680 --> 0:24:30.679
<v Speaker 4>you think you lost it? Would you be honest with

0:24:30.720 --> 0:24:32.520
<v Speaker 4>that assessment? Here's Kalais Campbell.

0:24:32.600 --> 0:24:34.640
<v Speaker 5>I think honesty is real. You know, if you want

0:24:34.640 --> 0:24:36.600
<v Speaker 5>to get better, you gotta be honest with yourself, you know.

0:24:36.720 --> 0:24:38.680
<v Speaker 5>I think there's always good plays and bad plays and

0:24:38.720 --> 0:24:41.600
<v Speaker 5>plays you can learn from. Nobody just dominates completely all

0:24:41.640 --> 0:24:44.440
<v Speaker 5>the way. It's a lot more good than bad. But yeah,

0:24:44.480 --> 0:24:47.040
<v Speaker 5>I've always been honest, you know, and keeping the real like, hey,

0:24:47.160 --> 0:24:49.520
<v Speaker 5>you know, fin that look good? You know, I'm gonna

0:24:49.520 --> 0:24:51.399
<v Speaker 5>say it to the media, but definitely answer to my teammates,

0:24:51.640 --> 0:24:54.439
<v Speaker 5>you know, but today I feel like we did a

0:24:54.520 --> 0:24:55.320
<v Speaker 5>really good job.

0:24:55.720 --> 0:24:55.919
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:24:55.960 --> 0:24:57.679
<v Speaker 5>Of course they make some players because you know, they

0:24:57.760 --> 0:25:00.480
<v Speaker 5>got playmakers on the squad, but overall, like you know,

0:25:00.800 --> 0:25:02.680
<v Speaker 5>resons made hard on them. They made it really hard

0:25:02.720 --> 0:25:04.760
<v Speaker 5>on them. Now we always say, like if they beat

0:25:04.760 --> 0:25:06.440
<v Speaker 5>this more to them sitting. If they make players want

0:25:06.480 --> 0:25:08.920
<v Speaker 5>they make plays doing at their best, you know, we

0:25:09.000 --> 0:25:10.840
<v Speaker 5>can't just give them. They players, they gotta earn every

0:25:10.880 --> 0:25:12.840
<v Speaker 5>yard they get. But of course the infilt they're gonna

0:25:12.880 --> 0:25:13.479
<v Speaker 5>arre some yards.

0:25:13.600 --> 0:25:15.600
<v Speaker 4>And just like the offense started off hot, it was

0:25:15.680 --> 0:25:20.080
<v Speaker 4>a run stuff and incompletion party early on, in practice,

0:25:20.119 --> 0:25:23.520
<v Speaker 4>playing inspired, playing chippy, Jalen Ramsey was at the focal

0:25:23.600 --> 0:25:25.600
<v Speaker 4>point of all of that. Again, I saw him play

0:25:25.600 --> 0:25:28.200
<v Speaker 4>press man, transition to a speed turn to get vertical,

0:25:28.520 --> 0:25:30.639
<v Speaker 4>hit the brakes on a comeback, flip the hips and

0:25:30.720 --> 0:25:33.200
<v Speaker 4>get back down the stem and break up a pass.

0:25:33.320 --> 0:25:35.480
<v Speaker 4>I mean that is true to form of the old

0:25:35.560 --> 0:25:39.240
<v Speaker 4>Dion Sanders poster that my Cowboys fan friends, you know,

0:25:39.240 --> 0:25:40.800
<v Speaker 4>growing up in the nineties had a lot of Cowboys

0:25:40.840 --> 0:25:43.080
<v Speaker 4>fan friends. They had this poster on their wall that

0:25:43.160 --> 0:25:45.719
<v Speaker 4>said seventy five percent of the planet is covered by

0:25:45.720 --> 0:25:47.479
<v Speaker 4>water at the other twenty five percent is covered by

0:25:47.560 --> 0:25:50.359
<v Speaker 4>prime time and when you can play the deep ball

0:25:50.400 --> 0:25:52.680
<v Speaker 4>without the safety help and you can get back to

0:25:52.720 --> 0:25:55.560
<v Speaker 4>the curl flat, do you understand the numbers advantage that

0:25:55.600 --> 0:25:58.240
<v Speaker 4>gives you elsewhere on the field. It's like when the

0:25:58.280 --> 0:26:01.400
<v Speaker 4>wildcat was popping off the added hat in the run

0:26:01.440 --> 0:26:05.119
<v Speaker 4>game equation that had defensive coordinators relearning how to drop

0:26:05.160 --> 0:26:07.680
<v Speaker 4>their run fits. Ramsey gives you that and you can

0:26:07.720 --> 0:26:10.120
<v Speaker 4>dictate terms of moving him around, which Anthony Weavers doing

0:26:10.160 --> 0:26:12.400
<v Speaker 4>a post of last year when he was pigeonholed into

0:26:12.400 --> 0:26:15.560
<v Speaker 4>one position. But he also gives you more flexibility than

0:26:15.560 --> 0:26:17.760
<v Speaker 4>any other defensive back in the entire game. That's what's

0:26:17.800 --> 0:26:21.080
<v Speaker 4>so crazy about him to me. Even if he loses

0:26:21.119 --> 0:26:23.280
<v Speaker 4>a step in two or three years down the line,

0:26:23.520 --> 0:26:25.960
<v Speaker 4>I don't I think that he would have a very

0:26:26.000 --> 0:26:29.159
<v Speaker 4>smooth transition into flipping to like a Kyle Hamilton roll

0:26:29.200 --> 0:26:31.840
<v Speaker 4>in Baltimore. But that's years away if that's what he

0:26:31.880 --> 0:26:34.480
<v Speaker 4>wants to do later on, But for now, he's doing

0:26:34.560 --> 0:26:36.679
<v Speaker 4>that stuff on top of freak of the nature stuff.

0:26:36.800 --> 0:26:38.920
<v Speaker 4>I even saw him move into the box and rush

0:26:39.040 --> 0:26:41.840
<v Speaker 4>inside and swat a pass down like a freaking edge

0:26:41.920 --> 0:26:45.040
<v Speaker 4>rusher right in Kirk Cousins face. He's an unreal talent.

0:26:45.240 --> 0:26:47.200
<v Speaker 4>He also tagged off on some plays in the running

0:26:47.240 --> 0:26:49.240
<v Speaker 4>game and the short passing game. He was out there

0:26:49.280 --> 0:26:51.840
<v Speaker 4>mixing it up. I think his presence alone, not just

0:26:51.920 --> 0:26:55.359
<v Speaker 4>the talent, but the unmatched tenacity, I think will be

0:26:55.440 --> 0:26:57.560
<v Speaker 4>big a big deal for us from week one on

0:26:57.680 --> 0:26:59.760
<v Speaker 4>because we didn't have that early. I thought we really

0:27:00.280 --> 0:27:02.560
<v Speaker 4>earlier in the season last year. My other standout was

0:27:02.600 --> 0:27:04.639
<v Speaker 4>a rookie rusher. Let's go ahead and stay in order here.

0:27:04.640 --> 0:27:08.120
<v Speaker 4>With the defensive backs, Kendall Fuller was outstanding. I saw

0:27:08.200 --> 0:27:10.320
<v Speaker 4>him draw Kyle Pitts on a one on one deep

0:27:10.320 --> 0:27:13.200
<v Speaker 4>shot and he out physicaled the big tight end. Pits

0:27:13.200 --> 0:27:15.119
<v Speaker 4>couldn't open up down the stem because he just he

0:27:15.160 --> 0:27:18.280
<v Speaker 4>didn't have the space to get his top end speed.

0:27:18.480 --> 0:27:21.679
<v Speaker 4>He couldn't elevate because Kendall wasn't phase at the jumping

0:27:21.800 --> 0:27:25.080
<v Speaker 4>or the point of attack I guess, and the ball

0:27:25.160 --> 0:27:27.520
<v Speaker 4>was nowhere close. As a result, he did the exact

0:27:27.560 --> 0:27:29.040
<v Speaker 4>same thing in one on ones. He even broke up

0:27:29.040 --> 0:27:30.720
<v Speaker 4>a pass that should have been picked off by Jevon

0:27:30.840 --> 0:27:34.680
<v Speaker 4>Holland down in red zone work where he again pins

0:27:34.720 --> 0:27:37.080
<v Speaker 4>the receiver to the perimeter and gets his head back

0:27:37.119 --> 0:27:39.600
<v Speaker 4>to the play to play the football and didn't see

0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:42.639
<v Speaker 4>Javon angling over for the room service pick and he

0:27:42.680 --> 0:27:45.040
<v Speaker 4>punched it away and costs Javon a pick. But good on,

0:27:45.080 --> 0:27:47.800
<v Speaker 4>good there. Speaking of Javon, you know, he was an enforcer.

0:27:47.880 --> 0:27:49.560
<v Speaker 4>He was a middle of the field presence. He gave

0:27:49.640 --> 0:27:52.920
<v Speaker 4>some receivers like footsteps today where he forced some incompletions

0:27:52.960 --> 0:27:55.600
<v Speaker 4>because of that presence. He also sparked that big brawl

0:27:55.640 --> 0:27:57.680
<v Speaker 4>we saw in practice, so you know, take care of

0:27:57.720 --> 0:28:00.000
<v Speaker 4>the other guys too out there. I thought Patrick mcmare

0:28:00.119 --> 0:28:02.240
<v Speaker 4>rris was really good today. He was excellent in the

0:28:02.240 --> 0:28:04.080
<v Speaker 4>one on ones and made a bunch of tackles coming

0:28:04.160 --> 0:28:06.720
<v Speaker 4>downhill in the many chuckdowns we saw. And to that point,

0:28:06.760 --> 0:28:08.639
<v Speaker 4>it was a slog for the Falcons early on in

0:28:08.640 --> 0:28:09.240
<v Speaker 4>this practice.

0:28:09.240 --> 0:28:09.440
<v Speaker 3>Man.

0:28:09.560 --> 0:28:12.400
<v Speaker 4>Then they started getting some footing mid practice and moved

0:28:12.440 --> 0:28:14.840
<v Speaker 4>the ball well in one period, and then Cousins did

0:28:14.840 --> 0:28:16.440
<v Speaker 4>a good job driving them in the two minute period

0:28:16.440 --> 0:28:18.320
<v Speaker 4>at the end of the practice. But I thought the

0:28:18.359 --> 0:28:20.639
<v Speaker 4>count went pretty heavily in the defense as favor man

0:28:20.720 --> 0:28:22.720
<v Speaker 4>like Michael Penix got hot there for a minute and

0:28:22.800 --> 0:28:25.080
<v Speaker 4>had some nice had a nice deep shot over saran Neil.

0:28:25.359 --> 0:28:27.560
<v Speaker 4>I thought Isaiah Johnson and saran Neil had the toughest

0:28:27.640 --> 0:28:30.080
<v Speaker 4>days outside. But if that's all from the cornerback spot,

0:28:30.119 --> 0:28:31.600
<v Speaker 4>you can live with that any day of the week.

0:28:31.760 --> 0:28:35.240
<v Speaker 4>We keep talking about Jason Matrie because he keeps making plays.

0:28:35.520 --> 0:28:38.040
<v Speaker 4>He had more PBUs today and that indicates or that

0:28:38.080 --> 0:28:41.400
<v Speaker 4>includes one on one and team. He's the like from

0:28:41.400 --> 0:28:45.000
<v Speaker 4>nowhere guy right to the Julius Warmsley, if you guys

0:28:45.000 --> 0:28:48.400
<v Speaker 4>remember that from twenty sixteen, I didn't know anything about him.

0:28:48.440 --> 0:28:51.040
<v Speaker 4>He was signed later than all the other udfas, and

0:28:51.120 --> 0:28:53.280
<v Speaker 4>he just keeps on making You put him in the

0:28:53.280 --> 0:28:55.840
<v Speaker 4>notes because he keeps making plays. Cater Coo, who made

0:28:55.840 --> 0:28:57.520
<v Speaker 4>employees today, had some good reps from what I saw,

0:28:57.520 --> 0:28:58.920
<v Speaker 4>including a pass breakup.

0:28:58.720 --> 0:28:59.920
<v Speaker 3>And Ethan bonner Man.

0:29:00.120 --> 0:29:02.280
<v Speaker 4>You know what, if it hasn't been Tyreek or Waddle,

0:29:02.400 --> 0:29:04.840
<v Speaker 4>he's pretty much won every rep outside of those two guys,

0:29:04.880 --> 0:29:06.800
<v Speaker 4>and no one really stops those guys. And I think

0:29:06.800 --> 0:29:09.000
<v Speaker 4>today we didn't see those two guys. He had his

0:29:09.040 --> 0:29:11.640
<v Speaker 4>best day of camp. He's competitive man, he's he wants

0:29:11.680 --> 0:29:13.560
<v Speaker 4>to mix it up. He doesn't really say a whole lot,

0:29:13.600 --> 0:29:15.760
<v Speaker 4>just kind of keeps to himself. He's always involved in

0:29:15.800 --> 0:29:17.920
<v Speaker 4>run plays to his side, and he's usually in phase

0:29:17.960 --> 0:29:20.600
<v Speaker 4>in pretty good shape and coverage. We're a little bit

0:29:20.640 --> 0:29:23.960
<v Speaker 4>thin at linebacker right now with Brooks and Walker not practicing,

0:29:24.000 --> 0:29:26.920
<v Speaker 4>but love seeing the depth there because Duke Riley gets

0:29:26.920 --> 0:29:29.520
<v Speaker 4>the orange jersey for his work on Monday's practice and

0:29:29.560 --> 0:29:31.320
<v Speaker 4>I saw him make a couple of plays, including one

0:29:31.360 --> 0:29:33.720
<v Speaker 4>big free run tackle for loss. Let's go ahead and

0:29:33.760 --> 0:29:36.000
<v Speaker 4>hear from kalay As Campbell once again on how this

0:29:36.240 --> 0:29:39.719
<v Speaker 4>linebacking corps helps this or check that rather, how this

0:29:39.800 --> 0:29:43.600
<v Speaker 4>defense emphasizes the run defense that we saw really excel

0:29:43.960 --> 0:29:45.120
<v Speaker 4>on Tuesday.

0:29:45.200 --> 0:29:45.920
<v Speaker 3>Keep getting with data.

0:29:45.960 --> 0:29:47.960
<v Speaker 5>Is you know it's built on stop on the run

0:29:48.360 --> 0:29:51.600
<v Speaker 5>and then you know, you know, creating pressure through different

0:29:51.600 --> 0:29:54.160
<v Speaker 5>blisters of different things. And then you know, I think,

0:29:54.200 --> 0:29:56.560
<v Speaker 5>you know, we've been a D line, you know, hard

0:29:56.640 --> 0:29:58.800
<v Speaker 5>playing D line from office square un Let's us rush

0:29:58.800 --> 0:30:00.400
<v Speaker 5>for a little bit so we can get a a

0:30:00.440 --> 0:30:03.400
<v Speaker 5>little more opportunity hit the quarterback. But you know, this

0:30:03.520 --> 0:30:05.640
<v Speaker 5>defense is I think a special we got you know,

0:30:05.760 --> 0:30:08.600
<v Speaker 5>Zach Zeller leading the way. You know up front, he

0:30:08.680 --> 0:30:11.000
<v Speaker 5>just sets the toe and we all kind of follow.

0:30:10.840 --> 0:30:12.680
<v Speaker 4>Suit and we go out there and we ball, but

0:30:12.760 --> 0:30:15.200
<v Speaker 4>man off the edge, you know the rook had himself

0:30:15.320 --> 0:30:18.640
<v Speaker 4>yet another day, Chop Robinson. I saw him win with

0:30:18.760 --> 0:30:21.480
<v Speaker 4>speed around the edge, flatten and then get greeted by

0:30:21.520 --> 0:30:23.640
<v Speaker 4>the running backs tipping up in passbro and when he

0:30:23.680 --> 0:30:26.280
<v Speaker 4>converted his speed to power, he ran him over and

0:30:26.360 --> 0:30:28.800
<v Speaker 4>pressured Cousins and forced a dead play. I mean, if

0:30:28.840 --> 0:30:30.760
<v Speaker 4>he does that in a game when we have JP

0:30:31.160 --> 0:30:33.520
<v Speaker 4>or Beach Hub or both of them out there, that

0:30:33.560 --> 0:30:35.520
<v Speaker 4>means you're blocking one of those guys or both of

0:30:35.520 --> 0:30:38.400
<v Speaker 4>those guys one on one and maybe pulling in eligibles

0:30:38.440 --> 0:30:40.400
<v Speaker 4>to be part of your protection scheme. Because that's the

0:30:40.440 --> 0:30:42.240
<v Speaker 4>definition of how you can impact a game.

0:30:42.480 --> 0:30:44.880
<v Speaker 3>And Chop does it every damn day out here.

0:30:45.080 --> 0:30:47.040
<v Speaker 4>And if you account for him off the edge, well,

0:30:47.240 --> 0:30:49.280
<v Speaker 4>I saw him kick inside and just bowl over the

0:30:49.280 --> 0:30:51.640
<v Speaker 4>center and then pop the back behind the lad scrimmage

0:30:51.680 --> 0:30:52.360
<v Speaker 4>for a big loss.

0:30:52.640 --> 0:30:53.640
<v Speaker 3>He looks really good.

0:30:53.840 --> 0:30:56.840
<v Speaker 4>I'll say the Falcons offensive line, like ours, did show

0:30:56.880 --> 0:30:58.920
<v Speaker 4>really good on one on ones, but Chop got the

0:30:58.960 --> 0:31:01.360
<v Speaker 4>best of them. Man Quintin Bell was the best in

0:31:01.400 --> 0:31:02.880
<v Speaker 4>those one on ones, but I thought the Falcons did

0:31:02.920 --> 0:31:04.840
<v Speaker 4>a good job on him during team I did see

0:31:04.840 --> 0:31:06.880
<v Speaker 4>Emmanuel Ogba get back there and make a couple of plays,

0:31:06.920 --> 0:31:09.720
<v Speaker 4>including one would be sack, and then also up front,

0:31:09.720 --> 0:31:11.840
<v Speaker 4>Tier Tart played with his hair on fire today. He

0:31:11.880 --> 0:31:13.840
<v Speaker 4>was in the backfield all damn day and cost plenty

0:31:13.840 --> 0:31:16.920
<v Speaker 4>of issues. His quickness next to the power of Sealer

0:31:17.320 --> 0:31:20.480
<v Speaker 4>and Campbell, It's gonna be tough for teams to sort

0:31:20.480 --> 0:31:23.320
<v Speaker 4>through that Sealer consistently reset the line of scrimmage. But

0:31:23.360 --> 0:31:25.520
<v Speaker 4>you probably could have guessed that. I thought DeShawn Hand

0:31:25.520 --> 0:31:28.520
<v Speaker 4>and Jonathan Harris had really impactful days. Both were able

0:31:28.560 --> 0:31:31.120
<v Speaker 4>to make splash plays and impact the point of attack frequently.

0:31:31.520 --> 0:31:34.320
<v Speaker 4>I think the biggest thing we saw today though, was

0:31:34.400 --> 0:31:37.840
<v Speaker 4>the idea was this defense is sort of solidify coagulate.

0:31:38.600 --> 0:31:41.200
<v Speaker 4>Is that a term we can use. Coagulate is when

0:31:41.200 --> 0:31:43.040
<v Speaker 4>a liquid turns to solid. So that's not really it,

0:31:43.040 --> 0:31:45.040
<v Speaker 4>because it would be foolish to say this is the

0:31:45.080 --> 0:31:45.760
<v Speaker 4>finished product.

0:31:45.840 --> 0:31:46.160
<v Speaker 3>It's not.

0:31:46.280 --> 0:31:48.960
<v Speaker 4>But I really thought we rushed well as a team

0:31:49.280 --> 0:31:51.560
<v Speaker 4>and just found ways to free up different guys in

0:31:51.600 --> 0:31:53.720
<v Speaker 4>that mix with solid covers in the back end. Let's

0:31:53.760 --> 0:31:56.040
<v Speaker 4>go back to Klay as Campbell one more time on

0:31:56.080 --> 0:31:58.800
<v Speaker 4>what gives him confidence this defense can come together quickly

0:31:58.960 --> 0:31:59.520
<v Speaker 4>in a new scheme.

0:31:59.840 --> 0:32:02.840
<v Speaker 5>We got really good linebackers, you know, really good you know,

0:32:02.880 --> 0:32:05.960
<v Speaker 5>and shutters, sided ogbable shoots, you know. He's just a

0:32:06.040 --> 0:32:09.160
<v Speaker 5>force in a run game in past game, you know.

0:32:09.400 --> 0:32:11.400
<v Speaker 5>And I think up front, you know, we got just

0:32:11.560 --> 0:32:14.480
<v Speaker 5>a bunch of big, strong guys who who take pride

0:32:14.480 --> 0:32:15.840
<v Speaker 5>to stop and run. I think we make a pledge

0:32:15.840 --> 0:32:17.160
<v Speaker 5>all the time, like they will not run the ball.

0:32:17.520 --> 0:32:19.760
<v Speaker 5>That is a pledge you have to make. And uh,

0:32:19.920 --> 0:32:21.680
<v Speaker 5>but it's also a combination. I think the scheme the

0:32:21.680 --> 0:32:23.720
<v Speaker 5>way we you know, I mean, you know, we put

0:32:23.800 --> 0:32:25.520
<v Speaker 5>us olfs a position to do better gets the run,

0:32:25.920 --> 0:32:28.680
<v Speaker 5>you know, early downs, and I think that that's a

0:32:28.840 --> 0:32:31.040
<v Speaker 5>you know, combination of a little bit of everything. But

0:32:31.280 --> 0:32:33.920
<v Speaker 5>I think we're building something here, you know. Obviously, you know,

0:32:34.360 --> 0:32:36.640
<v Speaker 5>I think this defense has had a lot of really

0:32:36.720 --> 0:32:39.320
<v Speaker 5>good success to stopping a run because of the way

0:32:39.360 --> 0:32:41.120
<v Speaker 5>we play things and you know, make it hold on teams.

0:32:41.280 --> 0:32:42.920
<v Speaker 5>But at the same time, it's players that you have

0:32:42.960 --> 0:32:44.479
<v Speaker 5>to go out there and make the plays. I think

0:32:44.520 --> 0:32:45.440
<v Speaker 5>we have a combination of both.

0:32:45.440 --> 0:32:47.320
<v Speaker 3>All right, that's pretty much it. A couple more things.

0:32:47.360 --> 0:32:49.160
<v Speaker 4>So let's let's go ahead and give out some jerseys

0:32:49.280 --> 0:32:51.240
<v Speaker 4>and play some more audio from Tyreek, and I will

0:32:51.280 --> 0:32:54.040
<v Speaker 4>also grade each position group. If I had to give

0:32:54.080 --> 0:32:56.720
<v Speaker 4>out the orange jersey, I would say Tua earned it today,

0:32:57.120 --> 0:32:59.120
<v Speaker 4>or maybe River creak Craft those are my top choices.

0:32:59.360 --> 0:33:02.400
<v Speaker 4>Then I'll go Amz Chop and alec Ingold, And how

0:33:02.400 --> 0:33:03.440
<v Speaker 4>about let's do this as well.

0:33:03.520 --> 0:33:04.160
<v Speaker 3>Let's go ahead and.

0:33:04.200 --> 0:33:06.480
<v Speaker 4>Grade each unit because we're not gonna get an orange jersey.

0:33:06.640 --> 0:33:09.280
<v Speaker 4>I don't think tomorrow. Quarterbacks, I gave him an A.

0:33:09.560 --> 0:33:12.080
<v Speaker 4>I just thought Tool was really good. The one pick

0:33:12.200 --> 0:33:14.040
<v Speaker 4>was the one mistake. I thought Mike White had a

0:33:14.080 --> 0:33:15.920
<v Speaker 4>really good practice, but Skyler struggled.

0:33:16.360 --> 0:33:19.080
<v Speaker 3>So maybe A A minus. Yeah, we'll go A. It

0:33:19.200 --> 0:33:19.760
<v Speaker 3>was pretty good.

0:33:20.200 --> 0:33:23.000
<v Speaker 4>Running backs B plus most An and h Chan hit explosives,

0:33:23.040 --> 0:33:25.280
<v Speaker 4>didn't get much from the rest Ingold was awesome. That

0:33:25.360 --> 0:33:27.960
<v Speaker 4>goes from A B to A B plus. Receivers C plus.

0:33:28.160 --> 0:33:30.680
<v Speaker 4>There were down so many guys outside of Reek, River

0:33:30.800 --> 0:33:33.240
<v Speaker 4>and Schwartz. There wasn't a whole lot there today. I

0:33:33.280 --> 0:33:35.360
<v Speaker 4>gave the tight ends a B because Jeweling was great.

0:33:35.400 --> 0:33:35.800
<v Speaker 3>Once again.

0:33:35.800 --> 0:33:38.360
<v Speaker 4>I thought Durham was solid and didn't get much elsewhere

0:33:38.520 --> 0:33:41.560
<v Speaker 4>across the offensive line C minus some really good, some

0:33:41.760 --> 0:33:43.920
<v Speaker 4>really bad a little below the media in there. For me,

0:33:44.640 --> 0:33:47.760
<v Speaker 4>the worst grade I gave out here. Interior defensive line

0:33:47.760 --> 0:33:50.479
<v Speaker 4>got an A minus good healthy rotation, constant impact at

0:33:50.480 --> 0:33:52.880
<v Speaker 4>the point of attack off the edge B plus. Chop

0:33:53.040 --> 0:33:55.040
<v Speaker 4>kind of raised that grade himself, but there was minor

0:33:55.080 --> 0:33:58.840
<v Speaker 4>contributions elsewhere. Mohammed Kamara was also down, so really deep

0:33:58.880 --> 0:34:02.800
<v Speaker 4>into the depth Charte B minus. David Long and Duke

0:34:02.880 --> 0:34:05.880
<v Speaker 4>were solid, but again they're thin there at cornerback A plus.

0:34:06.040 --> 0:34:08.640
<v Speaker 4>Elite stuff from those top two guys Bonner maytre Co,

0:34:08.800 --> 0:34:11.000
<v Speaker 4>who all made good plays as well against a good

0:34:11.040 --> 0:34:13.000
<v Speaker 4>skill group no less, and a B plus for the

0:34:13.040 --> 0:34:15.200
<v Speaker 4>safeties because a nice day from Javon Holland, Patrick mc

0:34:15.239 --> 0:34:17.200
<v Speaker 4>morris and Marcus may have made some plays as well.

0:34:17.520 --> 0:34:20.600
<v Speaker 4>If I were to score the battle, let's say there's

0:34:20.680 --> 0:34:23.759
<v Speaker 4>ten points available, I would say the offense won six

0:34:23.880 --> 0:34:25.520
<v Speaker 4>and a half to four and a half and the

0:34:25.600 --> 0:34:28.239
<v Speaker 4>defense won seven and a half to two and a half.

0:34:28.840 --> 0:34:31.160
<v Speaker 4>Let's go ahead and play two audio soundbites here to

0:34:31.200 --> 0:34:33.720
<v Speaker 4>close the podcast from Tyreek Hill. He first talks about

0:34:34.520 --> 0:34:36.959
<v Speaker 4>the locker room and accountability, and then he talks about

0:34:37.000 --> 0:34:38.760
<v Speaker 4>what he wants to accomplish here. This year with Miami

0:34:38.800 --> 0:34:41.439
<v Speaker 4>Dolphins back to back. Here's Tyreek Hill, Like, we got.

0:34:41.360 --> 0:34:44.520
<v Speaker 6>Two competitive of a team and two you know, great

0:34:44.880 --> 0:34:46.880
<v Speaker 6>of guys on this team to not win games. And

0:34:46.960 --> 0:34:48.320
<v Speaker 6>we all know that, man, because at the end of

0:34:48.320 --> 0:34:49.759
<v Speaker 6>the day, we all know the money gonna come, the

0:34:49.840 --> 0:34:52.239
<v Speaker 6>money gonna come whenever. Like what we focused on right

0:34:52.280 --> 0:34:54.920
<v Speaker 6>now is winning games because we got a great group

0:34:55.000 --> 0:34:57.799
<v Speaker 6>of guys, tremendous leaders on both sides of the ball.

0:34:57.880 --> 0:34:59.640
<v Speaker 1>And you see it each and every day, man like,

0:35:00.000 --> 0:35:00.960
<v Speaker 1>and it's fun to be a part of.

0:35:01.160 --> 0:35:04.680
<v Speaker 6>Like the energy out at practice is great, man, Like

0:35:04.719 --> 0:35:06.360
<v Speaker 6>you hear guys chirping back and forth.

0:35:06.560 --> 0:35:07.000
<v Speaker 1>It's fun.

0:35:07.160 --> 0:35:09.799
<v Speaker 6>That what makes football fun, Like when like brothers are

0:35:09.840 --> 0:35:12.399
<v Speaker 6>able to like chirp in between the lines and then

0:35:12.440 --> 0:35:14.120
<v Speaker 6>go into the locker room and then have a genuine

0:35:14.160 --> 0:35:16.600
<v Speaker 6>conversation like me and so I love it, man, I'm

0:35:16.640 --> 0:35:19.360
<v Speaker 6>absolutely loving it. But as a team go and what

0:35:19.440 --> 0:35:21.520
<v Speaker 6>I want, like for this whole team, man, is just

0:35:21.600 --> 0:35:23.600
<v Speaker 6>the winner. It just win a playoff game. That's step

0:35:23.640 --> 0:35:24.279
<v Speaker 6>one for all of us.

0:35:24.360 --> 0:35:24.520
<v Speaker 4>Man.

0:35:24.840 --> 0:35:26.839
<v Speaker 6>I think that's something that you know, we all can

0:35:26.920 --> 0:35:29.759
<v Speaker 6>build on, you know, moving forward, you know, going deeper

0:35:29.800 --> 0:35:32.880
<v Speaker 6>into the playoffs and that's something that we can live

0:35:32.960 --> 0:35:35.040
<v Speaker 6>with forever because it hasn't been done in what twenty three,

0:35:35.120 --> 0:35:37.320
<v Speaker 6>twenty four years, and for us to be able to,

0:35:37.480 --> 0:35:39.719
<v Speaker 6>you know, do something special like that with this team,

0:35:40.160 --> 0:35:42.799
<v Speaker 6>we can look back on it fifty years from now

0:35:42.960 --> 0:35:45.200
<v Speaker 6>when we all come back and say, Man, we had

0:35:45.239 --> 0:35:47.480
<v Speaker 6>a great team. Man back in twenty twenty four. Man,

0:35:47.960 --> 0:35:50.520
<v Speaker 6>I remember those practice. So that's what I want for

0:35:50.600 --> 0:35:52.359
<v Speaker 6>this team. Like, that's what I want for myself, man,

0:35:52.400 --> 0:35:54.719
<v Speaker 6>to have moments like that with with my brothers. Man,

0:35:54.760 --> 0:35:56.880
<v Speaker 6>because a lot of these guys I came in the

0:35:56.960 --> 0:35:58.600
<v Speaker 6>league with, you know what I'm saying. So we got

0:35:58.600 --> 0:36:02.400
<v Speaker 6>a lot of veterans on this team. The years, the

0:36:02.440 --> 0:36:04.319
<v Speaker 6>prior years I've been here is a real young team.

0:36:04.360 --> 0:36:06.719
<v Speaker 6>But the years now, we got guys that I came

0:36:06.760 --> 0:36:08.920
<v Speaker 6>into the league with, Guys that I played with, you know,

0:36:09.040 --> 0:36:10.160
<v Speaker 6>played with or against.

0:36:10.200 --> 0:36:11.920
<v Speaker 1>And it's a beautiful thing.

0:36:12.000 --> 0:36:12.120
<v Speaker 4>Man.

0:36:12.200 --> 0:36:13.680
<v Speaker 1>So I got a real good relationship with a lot

0:36:13.719 --> 0:36:13.960
<v Speaker 1>of guys.

0:36:14.000 --> 0:36:15.680
<v Speaker 3>So I would want that, and that will do it

0:36:15.760 --> 0:36:16.040
