We're gonna talk about the MetLife takeover, 0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:05.720 which if you have not made it up for a 0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:08.520 MetLife take over to the New York area, I highly 0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:12.120 highly recommended. What a fantastic weekend we had here celebrating 0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:15.080 with all these Dolphins fans and celebrating this football team. 0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:17.400 Will cover that the five takeaways, and we'll play a 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:19.600 segment for you guys from the postgame show with myself, 0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:22.360 O J. McDuffie and Seth Levitt. All of that more 0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:26.840 on the special on location from New Jersey, from New York, 0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:29.919 from MetLife Stadium, not from the Baptist Health Studios inside 0:01:29.920 --> 0:01:32.360 the Baptist Health Training Complex, but still on the road. 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:38.360 This is the Drive Time Podcasts. Go ahead and start 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:40.920 with the five takeaways here. First number one is two 0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:44.679 and the offense find their footing in the second half 0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:46.600 and back to two. A tongue by lowis stat line 0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:49.280 in that second half of this game. The bad interception 0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:51.080 in that first half that he acknowledged was a bad 0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:53.080 throw and a bad ball that he wishes he had back. 0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:55.680 He also acknowledged the offense having some plays they would 0:01:55.720 --> 0:01:57.920 like back in that game. But they came back strong 0:01:58.000 --> 0:02:00.680 in that second half, finishing out the second half eleven 0:02:00.720 --> 0:02:03.280 for twelve with a hundred and forty four passing yards 0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:06.200 and two touchdowns in that second half. We talk all 0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:08.960 the time about the gotta have at moments. Once again 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:11.520 in this game, Miami was sharp on offense when they 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:13.040 had to have it. There was a bit of a 0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:15.040 lull there in the second quarter, or I should say 0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:17.560 end of the first, mid second, or all the way 0:02:17.560 --> 0:02:19.440 through the second quarter, when the offense just couldn't get 0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:21.600 out of its own way. Some mistakes here and there 0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:24.120 to have mentioned the bad throw running game, couldn't get 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:26.640 much going protection, not great, just the offense kind of 0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:28.800 hit a bit of a pothole there before They did 0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:31.680 find their footing later on. But the the result of 0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:34.560 the drives in that second half is the main focus 0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:37.800 of this portion of the podcast, because you get a 0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:40.480 an explosive play right the longest touchdown pass in the 0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:42.679 career of two tungle by Low and goes sixty five 0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:46.560 yards to to almost Dan Waddle to mac Hollins for 0:02:46.639 --> 0:02:49.519 the big touchdown there. And that drive takes four plays 0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:52.600 ninety yards, two minutes and thirteen seconds off the clock. 0:02:52.800 --> 0:02:54.600 Then you have won three and out three plays for 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:58.799 nine yards, then four team plays seventy five yards, seven 0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:01.880 minutes and forty four seconds of game clock. Then you 0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:05.400 come back after the Jets go down and put points 0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:08.440 back on the board twelve plays forty five yards, six 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:10.960 minutes fifty three seconds and kicked the field goal to 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:13.519 put the Dolphins up by ten points and essentially out 0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:16.320 of reach late in that football game. And you want 0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:19.040 to talk about helping out your defense, that's a good 0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:21.000 way to do it right there. Get the time possession 0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:24.040 in your favor, especially late in a game. And in fact, 0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:27.040 the reporters post game asked Xavian Howard how he felt 0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:29.359 about the offense pretty much taking the air out of 0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:31.680 the football on those two drives, and he just said, 0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:34.040 I love that stuff, and he didn't say stuff. But 0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:37.160 as for two, uh, I guess you know, I don't 0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:41.040 understand what the expectation is of two. And maybe here 0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:44.120 I'm sort of arguing with myself or against a collection 0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:45.880 of tweets that I see, or whatever the case may be. 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:49.520 But what's the expectation here? I mean, twenty three year 0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:52.480 old quarterback hasn't even played a full sixteen games yet, 0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:56.600 and most of the time things are tight late in games. 0:03:56.760 --> 0:03:58.960 He plays his best ball in those moments, and the 0:03:59.000 --> 0:04:01.760 other stuff the in between is all getting better every 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:03.840 single week. And that's what Brian Fluores said post game. 0:04:03.880 --> 0:04:05.600 He said he thinks that every time to gets on 0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:08.560 the field, he's getting better. And that's a great trajectory 0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:11.880 if your twenty three year old quarterback in his second season. Now, 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:13.960 one of the things that I noticed about this game 0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:16.200 in recent games here from Miami and what to it 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:20.080 brings to the offense is a certain package of plays 0:04:20.120 --> 0:04:22.159 and the sequence of plays you can run off of 0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:25.919 those plays that he does so well, they're difficult to defend. 0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:27.880 And we talked about this in the post game show 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:30.840 with myself and Seth and o J. And I just asked, 0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:34.240 O J, you know, I know that you can't. You 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:37.520 can't construct an entire offense around the r p O 0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:39.479 and the quick game. You just you just cannot live 0:04:39.560 --> 0:04:41.880 that way where you only have this one package. That's 0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:43.919 kind of like saying, I'm only gonna run, you know, 0:04:44.000 --> 0:04:46.360 outside zone in my running game nothing else. You can't 0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:48.360 do that. You have to be multiple. But the ability 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.120 to get to the r p O, the quick game 0:04:50.200 --> 0:04:52.279 and the recals that they can display off of that, 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:54.839 and the conflict that all those plays create that gets 0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:58.159 defenders thinking about multiple things and some of the coverage 0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:00.640 busts that can create, or just the confusion in the 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.039 gaps that can create in the defense. There's a lot 0:05:03.040 --> 0:05:04.960 of value to that, and it might not be a 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:09.760 of your offense. But if it's even of the offense, 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:12.000 that's a pretty damn good starting point. Again for a 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:14.360 twenty three year old second year quarterback that he can 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:17.320 really excel and really flourish in those roles and did 0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:19.920 have an offense that with certain pieces kind of coming 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:22.800 together here can kind of take advantage of those strengths. 0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:24.479 I think you have to be very happy with that. 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:26.359 And then you sprinkle in some of the vertical shots. 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:29.279 And again the RPO quick game stuff did help generate 0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:32.000 that busted coverage last week against the Ravens where Albert 0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:34.600 Wilson got free up the sideline. We saw some instances 0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:36.800 in this game where to a converted third downs with 0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:39.240 the r P O game. But that in addition to 0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:42.560 his ability to escape pressure, and again, this kid finds 0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:44.120 a way to get out of pressure and kind of 0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:46.440 step off the spot and and extend and create He's 0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:49.120 very good in that area. I just think you're watching 0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:52.479 a young quarterback improve and develop in front of our eyes, 0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.880 and I, for one, find that to be very very 0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:58.640 exciting as a Dolphins fan for the last twenty five years, 0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:00.919 where you just haven't had that very often at that 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:04.000 position where you felt confident going forward in certain areas 0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:06.159 and development of a young guy's game. I mean, you know, 0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:08.000 Ryan Tannehill was the last draft pick, took him a 0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:10.800 while to get going into his career, Chad Henny, pat White, 0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:12.520 some of the other guys that were here before that. 0:06:13.200 --> 0:06:15.080 Not to to bag on on those guys are dunk 0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:16.920 on those guys, and I think of the sort they 0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:19.560 were all very good players, obviously just didn't work out 0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:22.120 here in Miami. But to see a quarterback develop and 0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:24.239 progress and to show that stuff that you want to see, 0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:26.280 that's really important to me. And so I just think 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:29.599 that the Dolphins should the Dolphins fans out there should 0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:32.520 be more excited about what you're seeing from him, especially 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:35.080 in these big time moments when the game is really 0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:37.120 coming down to it on the line. There and two 0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:39.240 seems to play his best ball in those moments, and 0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:41.720 the offense in general has kind of followed suit there 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:44.560 as well. Jalen Waddle moves into third all time on 0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:47.920 the rookie receptions list for your Miami Dolphins. He has 0:06:47.960 --> 0:06:49.919 a big game here, and an even bigger game if 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:52.440 he can just stay in bounds on that little half 0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.520 step out of bounds that he barely kicked up the 0:06:55.320 --> 0:06:57.000 was not you know, kick up chalk on field turf, 0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:59.640 but his foots on the white just barely, and there's 0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:02.839 only one defender there about ten yards away. We almost 0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:04.680 got to see the Ferrari come out of the garage 0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:06.200 on that play, and you could tell he thought it 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:08.680 was too because he came up really disappointed that he 0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:11.280 stepped on the sideline there. But he winds up eight 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:13.880 for sixty five. If he gets that seventy whatever, you're 0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:16.200 a touchdown. That's something else, but didn't happen, so we'll 0:07:16.200 --> 0:07:17.840 play it like that. But he did also add a 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:20.760 rushing touchdown, and this is a great Brett breck eisenstat 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:23.480 from our PR department does great research for us. He 0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:25.840 was the second rookie receiver with a rushing touchdown this 0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:29.080 season besides Elijah Moore for the Jets, who also is 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:30.600 a very good player in his own right out of 0:07:30.600 --> 0:07:34.000 American heritage. There with Pat Surtan in South Florida. The 0:07:34.040 --> 0:07:35.920 rest of the offense and other numbers here, Miles or 0:07:36.120 --> 0:07:39.040 rather mac hollins. Wow, easy for me to say two 0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:41.680 catches seventy two yards and a touchdown and the second 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:44.760 catch the the seven yard completion was a big third 0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:47.360 down conversion in this game. Mike Ga Sicky five for 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:50.640 fifty and Durham Smith four for seventy for thirty seven, 0:07:50.760 --> 0:07:52.600 and some other guys caught passes too, but that was 0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:57.280 the biggest producers in this game. Takeaway number two was 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:00.360 the game plan for the defense, the pressure looks, and 0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:03.880 the Jets ability to really kind of attack it as 0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:06.040 best as they could. I thought the ball got out 0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:08.840 wide a whole bunch, and that was really impressive for 0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.360 them to find that kind of when you're gonna play 0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:13.440 that zero coverage and you have the inside leverage, like 0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:16.160 that's kind of where the ball besides over the top. 0:08:16.240 --> 0:08:18.560 That's where that defense is maybe most vulnerable at times 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:20.240 in certain looks. And I thought the Jets did a 0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:22.680 good job of getting too those speedouts. And you know, 0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:25.080 we finally saw a slant pattern cause a problem on 0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:28.080 this defense, and that will happen sometimes, obviously in zero 0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:31.080 coverage looks if you get beat by just that small margin. 0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:33.800 And Byron's right there for that play, just not quite 0:08:33.880 --> 0:08:36.720 in position enough to make the play. He just missed 0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:38.840 that ball in his diving attempt and it goes out 0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:40.720 the back gate for sixty two yards and a touchdown, 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:42.200 And I was just talking about how he's playing so 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:44.360 well in that game and that play will obviously get 0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:46.840 charged to his statistics there, but that, I mean, that's 0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:48.320 the kind of the risk you run with the defense. 0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:50.280 But to have it only happened really spring a big 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:53.560 play one time in the last four weeks or so, 0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:56.160 I think that's very impressive with the Jets, just to 0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:58.360 to find a way to compete and put out three 0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:00.400 dred and eighty yards in this game. I thought that 0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:02.720 was impressive work there from Joe Flacco. But the pressure 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:05.840 and in general from Miami was relentless throughout the course 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:07.800 of the day. Obviously it led to a big play 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:10.360 from Brandon Jones there, but the third down defense was, 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:13.640 you know, seven for fourteen for the Jets. But Miami 0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:15.960 certainly made their fair share of big plays on those 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:19.120 third downs, including a big Jalen Phillips sack to get 0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:22.160 the defense off the field. Emmanuel Ogba continues to swap 0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:23.920 balls down at the line of scrimmage. He leads the 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:27.040 NFL and passes defense among defensive lineman. Got another one 0:09:27.080 --> 0:09:28.960 of those today. I thought, like Xavien Howard was in 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:30.800 great position a lot of the times almost had a 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:33.559 pick on one play late in that game, Jerome Baker 0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:36.559 providing pressure from that linebacker position, Andrew Van Gigel off 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:39.360 the edge. Once again, I thought Zack Seiler was a monster. 0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:41.160 I'll get a better look at the tape and more 0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:43.120 in depth on this on the Tuesday edition of The 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:45.640 Drive Time. But again, I just really thought the Jets 0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:48.320 did quite well against Miami's attack, and good on them, 0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:51.160 and good on Joe Flacco and also Robert Slow for 0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:54.479 making the decision to go with Flacco because he acknowledged 0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:57.000 it right. He wants the experience against a defense like this, 0:09:57.080 --> 0:09:59.640 and maybe Zach Wilson and Mike White hasn't played enough 0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:02.320 games have that experience to be able to excel against 0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:05.720 a high pressure, high intensity type of defense. And Flacco 0:10:05.880 --> 0:10:07.480 hung in there and took some big shots and got 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:09.520 the ball to the right spot. So that team played 0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:10.760 I think as bow as well as I could have 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:12.800 been this game for the Jets and the Dolphins were good. 0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:14.800 We're just better and we're better enough to come out 0:10:14.800 --> 0:10:17.640 with a victory in this game. Takeaway number three Javon 0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:19.800 Holland and Brandon Jones once again, this is gonna be 0:10:19.800 --> 0:10:23.200 a quick takeaway, but just kind of talking about how 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:26.160 opposing offenses have to account for these two young players 0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:29.079 a second year in the first year safety and Seth 0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:31.120 made this point about that, you know, the point that 0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:34.120 I made earlier in the postgame show about how Flacco's 0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:37.840 experience and the ability to recognize where certain guys are 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:39.880 on the field. Like we talked about how when you 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:42.120 game plan for an opponent, you have the little jersey 0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:44.480 to throw over the top of your practice jersey the 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:47.920 simulate your number on the opposing team for the scout team. 0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:49.880 So like if I'm playing against the Ravens, for instance, 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:51.640 if I'm going to be Lamar Jackson, i have my 0:10:51.720 --> 0:10:54.120 number eight jersey on. But where are number eight and 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:57.040 twenty nine when you're practicing against this Dolphins defense and 0:10:57.080 --> 0:10:59.160 your scout team on the other side of the football. 0:10:59.200 --> 0:11:00.640 And that's, you know, kind of the case for the 0:11:00.640 --> 0:11:02.840 whole defense because they were getting after all game long 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:05.240 and have been for a month plus now, finding a 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:07.280 way to get after the quarterback and create pressure and 0:11:07.280 --> 0:11:10.000 generate big plays with the pressure you put on them. 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:12.959 But just with the blitzing and the constant accounting for 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.440 number eight and number twenty nine down around the line 0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:17.760 of scrimmage, out in coverage, the communication, the ability to 0:11:17.800 --> 0:11:20.560 spin out and do different things. It's been really impressive. 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:23.360 And for Brandon Jones to basically not basically he did 0:11:23.600 --> 0:11:26.079 with his pressure, his sack, his forced fumble, he took 0:11:26.120 --> 0:11:27.920 points off the board. The Jets are in the red zone. 0:11:27.960 --> 0:11:30.320 There a big strip sack that goes back the Dolphin's way. 0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:32.719 Christian Wilkins a great pin on the helmet to pin 0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:34.640 that thing for a forced or a fumble recovery, I 0:11:34.640 --> 0:11:36.640 should say. And the run after that put the ball 0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:39.120 away big man. He fumbls it back Javon Holland then 0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:41.400 picks it up for another fumble recovery of his own. 0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:43.520 But I thought one of the best plays in terms 0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:48.520 of just takeaway situation or circumstances, just the best peer 0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:50.920 athletic play in the entire game, for my money, was 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:53.599 the pass breakup on Javon Holland over the top of 0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:57.120 Corey Davis with Jerome Baker underneath and coverage in good shape. 0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:59.080 But it was a great ball right over the top 0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:01.440 and Holland comes in and separates the ball from the 0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:03.600 receiver's hands, and he also finished with a team high 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:07.600 seven total tackles. So Holland and Jones continue their hot 0:12:07.640 --> 0:12:10.280 streak now heading into the month of December after next 0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:13.360 week after the Panthers game, takeaway number four. Miles Gaskin 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:14.720 what a game he had in this one, and it 0:12:14.800 --> 0:12:17.720 wasn't pretty as far as the yards per carry average 0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:19.760 just three point nine, but there was a lot of 0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:22.000 big runs and the chunk games I thought were so 0:12:22.080 --> 0:12:24.079 essential to the success of the offense and the team 0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:27.120 in general in this game to generate some explosive plays, 0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:28.800 both from the passing game and the running game. And 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:30.880 we talked about this in the preview show right how 0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:33.840 the Jets were thirty second explosive pass plays allowed and 0:12:33.920 --> 0:12:37.400 thirty one and explosive run plays allowed. Both elements of 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:39.520 the Dolphins offense found success in that regard with the 0:12:39.559 --> 0:12:42.000 obviously sixty five yard touchdown pass and a couple of 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:45.320 the big runs from Miles Gaskin, and also the touchdown 0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:47.320 catch that he made. Just what a tough dude, because 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:49.160 that's a play where he knew he was gonna get popped, 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:50.960 but he found the goal line, found the end zone 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:54.199 for a huge touchdown with just under eleven minutes to 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:56.560 play in the game, tied at fourteen. All you kicked 0:12:56.559 --> 0:12:59.480 that field goal there, that's a momentum swinger back in 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:02.160 favor of the Jets. But because he found the goal line, 0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:04.320 found the end zone, Dolphins go up by seven and 0:13:04.360 --> 0:13:06.720 didn't really look back from that point forward in the game. 0:13:06.760 --> 0:13:09.480 So great work for Miles gas him. And here's a 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.320 segment that has kind of gone by the wayside this 0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:15.360 year on the Drivetime podcast that I apologize for. I 0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:18.400 blame largely the seven game losing streak because there wasn't 0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:20.360 many options to look at, but I haven't gone back 0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:22.840 to it, and that's my mistake. But the play before 0:13:22.920 --> 0:13:25.120 the play, and technically this is two plays before the 0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:29.640 play second and fourteen after a penalty for Miami offensively 0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:33.160 pushes them back. It was a one of three offensive 0:13:33.160 --> 0:13:35.959 pass interferences in the game that negates a thirty five 0:13:36.040 --> 0:13:39.760 yard reception from two to Albert Wilson and their second 0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:41.679 and fourteen backed up in the shadow of their own 0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:44.240 goal post, and Miles Gasking rips off a twenty yard 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:46.560 run with an awesome seal off the edge from Leon 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:49.920 Eichenberg to get the Dolphins not just in first down territory, 0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:52.000 but to open up the playbook where you're in a 0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:53.959 position where you don't have to kind of play it 0:13:54.000 --> 0:13:56.320 conservative because your second long or third and long up 0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:58.440 against your own goal post. Like if he gains no 0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:00.920 yards third and fourteen, you probably don't even put that 0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:02.400 ball into harm's way and you just run the ball 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:04.160 and get the heck out of their punted away and 0:14:04.240 --> 0:14:06.400 come back and live to fight another day. But because 0:14:06.440 --> 0:14:08.360 he hit a twenty yard run, he then comes back 0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:10.400 with a nine yard run on the next play and 0:14:10.520 --> 0:14:13.160 second and one, they hit the sixty five yard touchdown 0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:15.800 pass the play before the play, Miles Gaskon hits a 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.559 big one, And actually I just heard the postgame press conferences, 0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:21.160 Mac Hollins mentioned that too, So good on you, Mac, 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:23.080 for given love to your teammate for making a big 0:14:23.080 --> 0:14:25.560 play to help you go make a big play. Just 0:14:25.640 --> 0:14:29.560 in general kind of tough sledding overall. We mentioned that 0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:31.680 the three point nine yards per carry from Miles Gaskin, 0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:34.640 But I thought he ran hard, I thought he ran decisively, 0:14:34.960 --> 0:14:37.560 and the chunk runs I thought were exactly what this 0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:41.600 offense needed, and it wasn't just miles Duke Duke Johnson 0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:43.920 goes four for eight teen on the ground, Welcome to Miami. 0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:46.320 He also said postgame his three favorite Dolphins growing up, 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:49.120 Jason Taylor, Zach Thomas, and Ricky Williams, You and me 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:53.200 both brother. Patrick Laird had a huge reception where he 0:14:53.240 --> 0:14:56.320 breaks two tackles short of the sticks to extend that 0:14:56.400 --> 0:14:58.560 opening drive. That's a that's kind of a four point play. 0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:01.160 We talked about Brandon Jones taking points off the board 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:04.040 a possible touchdown our field goal. Patrick Laird added four 0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:06.720 points to the scoreboard there with that great effort after 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:08.960 the catch and then to run out the clock. I 0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:11.120 think it was nine carries for twenty five yards, so 0:15:11.160 --> 0:15:14.400 again not great by the average standards, but that's how 0:15:14.400 --> 0:15:16.200 you milk a clock out with seven minutes to go 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:18.240 in the game and get your offense in position to 0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:20.040 win the game and get the defense an easier time. 0:15:20.320 --> 0:15:22.640 On the other end, they also sprinkled and a clutch 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:25.280 clutch seven yard completion and a six yard completion there 0:15:25.400 --> 0:15:27.880 to help move the sticks. That's exactly how you run 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:31.160 your four minute offense. Take Away number five getting better 0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:34.640 under Brian Flores after Halloween fifteen and six are the 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:37.520 Miami Dolphins. That's a great record and definitely buys in 0:15:37.720 --> 0:15:39.880 or coincides with the message that we want to get 0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:43.240 better throughout the course of the season. Nine and three 0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:46.200 in the month of November under Brian Flores and seven 0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:48.480 and one in the past two years. So that's the 0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:51.080 fifth takeaway here, getting better as the year goes along. 0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:52.840 The Dolphin's gonna have to continue to put together some 0:15:52.880 --> 0:15:55.120 wins here and it starts next week against the Carolina 0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:58.000 Panthers at home. Three straight home games and a bye 0:15:58.000 --> 0:16:00.680 week sandwich in between. There can't wait for that. Personally, 0:16:00.720 --> 0:16:02.080 I'm sure the guys would love to be back in 0:16:02.120 --> 0:16:04.480 South Florida for a solid month here as the holiday 0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:07.840 comes and goes here earlier or late November into early December. 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:10.000 But those are your five takeaways. Getting better throughout the 0:16:10.000 --> 0:16:12.000 course of the season. Miles Gascon in the running game 0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:15.320 got the job done again with Brandon Jones and Javon Holland, 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:18.520 the Jets responding well to Miami's pressure looks in the 0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:20.840 zero coverage and then to a tongue of vloa and 0:16:20.840 --> 0:16:23.520 the offense find their footing in the second half, and 0:16:23.560 --> 0:16:26.000 I would be remiss if I didn't mention the completion 0:16:26.080 --> 0:16:29.640 from two up to Waddle on third and eight with 0:16:29.880 --> 0:16:31.640 pretty much you know, there's a minute left in the 0:16:31.680 --> 0:16:34.480 third quarter, the Dolphins are tied up, and they're on 0:16:34.520 --> 0:16:36.160 their own side of the field at the forty three 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:39.320 yard line, tied up late third quarter. You don't get 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:41.120 that first down, you don't get to eat up more 0:16:41.120 --> 0:16:43.000 time on the clock, you don't get to obviously go 0:16:43.080 --> 0:16:44.680 score points. You give the ball right back to the 0:16:44.760 --> 0:16:47.960 Jets again, one of these possible momentum swingers. They get 0:16:47.960 --> 0:16:49.760 off the field on third and eight, they probably feel 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:52.120 good about themselves, give the ball back to the offense. 0:16:52.240 --> 0:16:54.600 Maybe they can produce some more points on that drive, 0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:56.400 and then all of a sudden you're down in the 0:16:56.440 --> 0:16:59.080 fourth quarter. But for two on that third and eighth throw, 0:16:59.320 --> 0:17:01.520 pressure was actually not in his face so much. It 0:17:01.560 --> 0:17:03.600 looked like it at the end, but in general, the 0:17:03.640 --> 0:17:06.800 past protection was very good. Waddle had a fantastic route 0:17:06.840 --> 0:17:09.000 to kind of turn the defender around, but he eventually 0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:12.879 closed the space because that that window the two I 0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:15.880 had to throw too was was very tight, very thin, 0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:18.359 and he put that thing right on the money and 0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:20.400 seth and o J loved this. In the post game show, 0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:22.359 I talked about the Brian day ball comment from when 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:25.040 he was the o C back at Alabama with tah 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:26.760 and he said, you know, some guys can hit the 0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:29.160 barn with the football. Some guys can hit the door 0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:31.359 on the barn. Some guys can even hit the door 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:33.960 knob on the door of the barn. But some guys 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:36.320 can hit the keyhole of the door knob of the 0:17:36.359 --> 0:17:38.760 door of the barn. And that guy is too. A 0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:41.120
