WEBVTT - Drive Time: Dolphins Chiefs All 22 Review 0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:04.960 Drive Time with Travis Wingfield begins. Now, let me check 0:00:05.000 --> 0:00:08.600 your pulse if you're not. What is up? Dolphins? And 0:00:08.720 --> 0:00:11.560 welcome to the Drive Time Podcast, part of the Miami 0:00:11.560 --> 0:00:16.479 Dolphins podcast network, covering your team, your Miami Dolphins. How's 0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:19.439 it going everybody? I am your host, Travis Wingfield. And 0:00:19.520 --> 0:00:21.920 on today's show, we break down the All twenty two 0:00:22.040 --> 0:00:25.119 tape from the game in Germany. Let's get through it together. 0:00:25.320 --> 0:00:27.560 It was a tough one. As Coach McDaniel said, it 0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:31.480 was painful, it hurt, but it was I suppose somewhat therapeutic. 0:00:31.680 --> 0:00:33.839 We'll go through that, give you the reasons why it 0:00:33.840 --> 0:00:36.320 didn't work, why things did work, this defense taking a 0:00:36.320 --> 0:00:38.879 big step in the right direction. The key stats, the 0:00:38.920 --> 0:00:42.080 snap counts, and more from the Baptist Health Studios inside 0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:49.680 the Baptist Health Training Complex. This is the Drive Time Podcast. Aye. Yeah, 0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:52.120 it sucked, man, that sucked to watch. If you want 0:00:52.159 --> 0:00:55.240 to feel better, they'll go watch coach McDaniel's Monday press 0:00:55.280 --> 0:00:57.080 conference as well as Tron Arms and a few of 0:00:57.120 --> 0:00:59.920 the other guys. Like there's just a sense of like 0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:02.560 that ain't gonna happen again, and I know that's gonna 0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:04.840 fall deaf on a lot of ears because you don't 0:01:04.840 --> 0:01:06.760 want to hear that. And I understand that. I get that. 0:01:08.040 --> 0:01:10.160 I felt that way at twenty one nothing. I feel 0:01:10.160 --> 0:01:12.600 a lot better after the second half. And even though 0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:14.000 the game end of the way it did, at least 0:01:14.040 --> 0:01:16.600 Miami was competitive, and for some reason I got torch 0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:18.520 Or saying they outplayed the Chiefs. Go talk to a 0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:21.679 wall man. I mean, I suppose your own performance includes 0:01:21.680 --> 0:01:24.000 shooting yourself in the foot, which that can be taken 0:01:24.040 --> 0:01:27.000 into account. But like Miami was right there and they 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:29.319 beat themselves, and McDaniel said as much in his press 0:01:29.319 --> 0:01:32.880 conference on Monday, So yeah, go listen to coach. I 0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:35.760 think it's it's instructive. I think it's therapeutic to do so. 0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:39.960 But we're also gonna start the all twenty two review 0:01:40.000 --> 0:01:41.840 podcasts a little bit different today. We usually be big 0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:43.919 play breakdowns, but I want to go through the final 0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:47.360 sequence there at the end of the game first, because 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:49.880 first down, you get them in a five man box 0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:52.760 after runs of twenty six and twenty nine, and you 0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:54.640 can't know that until you call the play. But I 0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:56.480 wonder if for some kind of autonomy to kind of 0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:59.400 make a check there because you go empty against a 0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:02.920 five man and Raheem motions across the formation, but not 0:02:03.480 --> 0:02:07.280 side saddle alongside Tua. I can't fathom the idea of 0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:09.960 not having him just stop right there and checking to 0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:11.920 a run. And again, I don't know the mechanics of that, 0:02:12.000 --> 0:02:13.920 but like, hey, let's go ahead and hurt you down 0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:15.720 right here, Raheem. Let's get hat on a hat, maybe 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:17.919 get a clean five yard runway, and if you make 0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:20.720 a play, Raheem, it's another big chunk. And at that 0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:23.440 point you want to run some clock. Right, it's one 0:02:23.520 --> 0:02:25.920 seventeen to go at the plus thirty one yard line. 0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:28.000 You hit a fifteen yard run. Now all of a 0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:31.160 sudden you've got two timeouts under a minute to play. 0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:34.320 Probably let the clock run with fifteen yards to go. 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:37.720 And McDaniel addressed this in his press commerce on Monday, 0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:39.320 saying that like, you know, whatever the call is, if 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:41.440 it works, it's genius. If not, it doesn't, you know, 0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:44.760 it's it's the other way around. So I get the whole, 0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:46.839 you know, results based process there. But I just think 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.080 in that situation, there was a chance to maybe you know, 0:02:49.120 --> 0:02:51.800 get some more yards and put yourself with four down territory. 0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:53.920 You could have given yourself maybe three cracks at throwing 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:56.120 the football with only you know, needing five yards, which 0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:59.280 changes the equation. Then on second down, press coverage on 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:01.720 Wattle and they freaking hold him. They hold him, they 0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:03.760 interfer him, the mug him, knock him down. I don't 0:03:03.800 --> 0:03:06.440 know why it wasn't called. Look, it didn't cost you 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:08.079 the game, don't I never want to say that about 0:03:08.120 --> 0:03:10.600 officiating every single game across the NFL. When you watch 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:12.400 a non Dolphins game, I bet you don't talk about 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:15.080 the officiating unless it's like egregiously bad, like maybe that 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:17.720 Jets and Chiefs game was earlier in the season, But 0:03:18.840 --> 0:03:20.760 it is what it is. He was held, he was mugged, 0:03:20.760 --> 0:03:22.120 he was thrown down. You still should have find the 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:24.399 way to execute a third down. It's probably my least 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:26.800 favorite play from two of the year, and it's not 0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:30.520 because of this wildly inaccurate take that he has some 0:03:30.560 --> 0:03:33.799 inadequate arm like all the and I wrote down here 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:35.960 mouth breathers on Twitter, which is probably a little harsh, 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:38.840 but I mean, if you have that take, then I 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:41.120 don't know what to tell you, Bud. He's made that 0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:43.880 same throw for touchdowns like four times this season, so 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:47.280 stop with that. I can't be certain what happened. Here's 0:03:47.320 --> 0:03:49.360 what I think happened. We heard from him to and 0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:53.040 from him Cedric and McDaniel miscommunication, But I think that 0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:55.520 to a predetermined he was throwing that ball in the comeback, 0:03:55.760 --> 0:03:58.800 and in his mind as he was throwing the ball, 0:03:58.960 --> 0:04:01.960 he sees Cedric running go, and he processes that mid 0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:04.880 throw and changes his mind and the ball comes off wonky. 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:06.800 That's kind of the way I saw it. It's the 0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:10.240 only real possible explanation that would track to me on that, 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:13.320 because you know, I don't know. I don't know if 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:15.400 you can check that midplay and just throw the takeoff 0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:19.040 because the cornerback is squatting at the sticks and Cedric 0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:22.279 hits that little kind of hesitation step at him. There's 0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:24.440 no help squatting at the sticks. That's a one hundred 0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:26.719 percent of the time vertical throw for me. But what 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:29.159 do I know? Then the snap off frame. It's a 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:30.840 bad snap, but you still probably should have caught that. 0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:33.040 I think his eyes went up towards the pressure probably, 0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:35.360 which is good. But you know, a ball off your 0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:39.000 frame coming in hot tough to catch. Those same result 0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:40.720 as you know, if you pick it, don't fall on 0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:42.040 the ball, it's the same result if you pick it 0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:44.080 up and they you know, they fumble it around and 0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:46.679 take it back for six. Like just a total breakdown 0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:48.560 there and crunch time and it sucks. And that's the 0:04:48.600 --> 0:04:49.840 hard part of the tape to me, and I thought 0:04:49.880 --> 0:04:51.280 there was a lot more hard parts of the tape. 0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:53.239 Let's go ahead and talk about the positive big plays 0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:55.960 though the Cedric Wilson touchdown. You know, teams have really 0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:58.800 been letting a lot of these guys run these verticals 0:04:58.800 --> 0:05:01.520 one on one down the field, even Jalen Waddle sometimes, 0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:03.360 but we don't always try them. I think there's a 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:05.760 little bit too much of a vertical focus on Tyreek, 0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:08.000 and maybe opening up some of the other guys in 0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:10.640 the vertical game could change the way defenses view you. 0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:12.760 But here I thought to throw a really good ball 0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:15.720 as Cedric runs this post corner route. He's running down 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:18.640 the stem with a cornerback who has outside leverage, so 0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:21.920 he fakes the move inside and that holds a single 0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:23.880 high safety in the middle of the field on the 0:05:23.920 --> 0:05:26.039 far hash and right when he breaks it back to 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.799 the corner to a season and uncorks it, and because 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:31.920 of that good route, it's well timed. Cedric is in 0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:34.279 position to make a play on the football while the 0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:36.800 corner is trying to recover and get back into shape 0:05:37.080 --> 0:05:38.560 and he doesn't have a chance to go up and 0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:40.760 get the ball. So what's really nice here is that 0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:44.160 Tyreek is also all alone for a touchdown or what's 0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:45.840 going to be at least a big play on a slant. 0:05:46.080 --> 0:05:48.120 In fact, he might have scored two. I think he 0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:50.760 probably would have, but Tua works him. You see him 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:52.720 work to the one side of the field and then 0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:55.039 come back and I'm almost certain that he sees that 0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:57.760 safety getting width away from Cedric, so he knows I 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:01.240 have a poster opportunity with a five to ten corner 0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:03.720 against my six street receiver. Here, I'm gonna go ahead 0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:05.839 and throw it up inside from the leverage. He makes 0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:07.520 a great play of the ball. Good throw there as well. 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:10.600 Pass pro is great because everyone fires off the football 0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:12.840 on that play pass and you see the Chiefs pass 0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:15.279 rush pop up out of their stances. That's a bad 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:17.440 place to be. And then just a special shout out 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:20.200 here from Durham Smyth for locking down the left edge 0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:22.280 on split flow. He had a tough assignment and he 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:24.360 got it done. And that's been durham S mice game 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:25.880 all year. I've been a big fan of his tape 0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:29.800 this year. For the Dolphins offense, Raheem's touchdown pretty basic. 0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:33.719 Toron Armstead exceptional double team with Smyth to widen the gap. 0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:36.920 Raheem reads that and has a great slash step inside 0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:39.719 first cut and just springboards off that left foot when 0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:41.479 he plants it in the ground and picks up steam 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:45.760 from there for some linear yardage accumulation. Alec Ingold picks 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:48.960 up two heads with a key lead block and then 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:50.960 it's all speed from there from Raheem, Moster for a 0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:53.360 touchdown and then the forest funnel from Chubb. Your recovery 0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:55.679 from Seiler not a lot to it. The coverage caps 0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:59.200 what is essentially four verts from the Chiefs. Mahomes finally 0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:01.960 gets a little hook that comes clear like ten yards 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.280 downfield on third and twenty, but by that time the 0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:07.000 rush had already won. So Seler gets a great pick 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:10.080 stunt with Bradley Chubb. Tooney wheels out and looks like 0:07:10.120 --> 0:07:12.440 he's gonna make the block of the year, but Chubb 0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:14.560 throws him to the ground and gets the sack, gets 0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:17.120 a handle the football, and then Phillips runs through two 0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:19.840 Chiefs defenders and joins in on the hit. And then 0:07:19.920 --> 0:07:22.360 great awareness by Zach to find the football. Those are 0:07:22.400 --> 0:07:25.920 your big plays? How about your top five tapes? Number 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:27.800 one for me in this game with Jalen Phillips, he 0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:30.960 just wins reps with such consistency. I know you don't 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:34.080 see it. You know, jump off the tape every play 0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:37.440 because sometimes when a defender wins it doesn't amount to anything. 0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:39.760 But he's controlling the edge in the running game and 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:42.400 rushing with a real purpose, not just trying to win 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:46.320 a matchup, but with real purpose and conviction for how 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:49.160 to impact this gap or how to widen this guy's stance. 0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:52.080 He does it in so many ways. Up and under, rip, 0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.880 under that upfield shoulder, then corner flat lined to the 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:58.200 quarterback for a throwaway. The next drive, he bluffs upfield 0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:00.840 and then crossed over steps back in side to wreck 0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:03.680 the inside post of the right tackle. Then the right 0:08:03.680 --> 0:08:05.720 guard comes into help and he runs him over, just 0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:09.000 flattens him like the steamroller in the Malcolm in the 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:11.520 Middle episode when Hal runs the steamroller and runs over 0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:14.040 all the kids' toys. That creates a free run for 0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:17.200 Zach Sealer on the te stunt for a pressure throwaway, 0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:20.320 he's jumping inside to cut down b gap runs, set 0:08:20.320 --> 0:08:22.800 in the edge wide peeling off outside to make those plays. 0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:25.600 Also had a really good reroute for an incompletion on Kelsey. 0:08:25.880 --> 0:08:27.960 Great tape for Jalen Phillips. He gets the number one 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:30.440 tape by the week with four pressures and two stops 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:33.839 and another sack according to Pro Football Focus, which, by 0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:36.520 the way, starting to salur on those guys even more 0:08:36.559 --> 0:08:38.680 than I already was, because they gave the Dolphins defense 0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:41.040 the second lowest grade of the year for them, and 0:08:41.080 --> 0:08:44.200 their grade was one point higher than Buffalo's. So yeah, 0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:46.719 PFF grades, Man, I don't know. Jalen Ramsey gets the 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:48.280 number two tape here. I think he's going to be 0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:50.319 a mainstay here in this top five because of the 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:52.560 way he impacts the rest of the defense. I thought 0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:55.920 they got even more coverage looks post snap rotations than 0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:57.560 we saw in the Patriots game. And you know how 0:08:57.559 --> 0:09:00.480 the Patriots used to always speaking of those guys double 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:03.440 your top guy and then put like Reevis or Gilmour 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:06.520 all alone on your number two. He did some of 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:08.880 that this week, and the way the zone part of 0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:13.240 the coverage is working together in tandem, Like, I don't 0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:15.000 know how many times you're gonna get open guys against 0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:16.920 this defense. If that first drive was pretty much it 0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:19.200 as far as these last two games go, you know, 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:21.400 there's a few reps where I wrote in my notes 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:24.120 that he just erased the red off the screen where 0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:26.320 like he pressed and they got behind him on the 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:29.400 screen and you just see him covering air because of 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:31.760 the jersey right behind him. Like this guy's good man. 0:09:31.800 --> 0:09:34.240 Thirty eight coverage snaps, he allowed thirteen yards on two 0:09:34.320 --> 0:09:37.240 for three completions in attempts. My number three tape goes 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:40.559 to Bradley Chubb. Fantastic work every single week in the 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:42.679 Running Game. I thought he did a tremendous job when 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:45.720 peeling back into coverage as well. That force fumble pass 0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:49.199 rush was elite stuff. Just chucked Joe Tuney aside, one 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:50.839 of the best guards in the game. You know. I 0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:53.720 talked about him and Phillips seemingly every day denting the 0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:55.760 edge in the Running Game back in training camp, and 0:09:55.840 --> 0:09:57.640 my gosh, that's showing up in some kind of way 0:09:57.880 --> 0:10:00.319 PFF said. Two pressures, one stop and of course the 0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:03.040 forced fumble on a sack, six coverage snaps and just 0:10:03.160 --> 0:10:06.240 the Rashi Rice catch for five yards in coverage. But 0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:09.240 number four tape goes to Tarron Armstead. Great to see 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:11.920 him back. Just copy and paste performance. I think he 0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:14.280 maybe could have stayed on some blocks a little bit 0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:16.440 longer in the running game, but I think his ability 0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:19.080 to wipe out someone one on one in pass protection, 0:10:19.240 --> 0:10:21.720 like I think it was the second series of the game. 0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:24.439 You know, welcome back to the league, big fella. We're 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:26.240 gonna go ahead and slide protect away from you. Go 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:28.560 ahead and handle you know, a George Carr loft as 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:31.000 he did that very seamlessly. There. He has some really 0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:32.960 good seals and climbs in the running game, big block 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.440 on the raheem most right, touchdown run, welcome back, We 0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:38.280 need you, big fellow. One pressure allowed via Pro Football Focus. 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:41.040 And then my fifth tape goes to Xavier Howard. Just 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:44.160 excellent vision and feel all game long. He would play 0:10:44.200 --> 0:10:46.560 from depth and crash on the short screen game or 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:49.800 the short passing game. He's squat on routes and see 0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:52.600 our ability to give more help over the top of 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.760 him because of Ramsey's presence allows him to be better 0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:58.640 with his physicality, which is of course his best trait 0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:01.560 besides maybe the ballhawking. But even with that, I thought 0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:04.040 he got into phase and ran stride for stride down 0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:06.360 the field with the receivers and tight ends. The groin 0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:08.719 looks better. I'm excited they arrested him and let him 0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:10.960 get back to full health. Great tape here from ex 0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:12.400 I thought one of his best games in a long 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:14.959 time as a member of the Miami Dolphins. Thirty nine 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:17.600 coverage snaps, eight yards allowed on just two for four passing. 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:21.079 My close but no cigars were Waddle, Wilkins and Long. 0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:23.520 Let's go ahead and roll on here in the first segment. 0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:26.240 Some offensive notes here as we kind of pivot towards, 0:11:26.480 --> 0:11:28.800 you know, the two sides of the football. Just in general. 0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:30.640 The Chiefs playing, I thought they had a really good 0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:32.840 plan and executed it really well. They knew how to 0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:34.600 deal with some of the stuff that has really worked 0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:36.960 for us all year. You know, they would rotate off 0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:40.719 of the exit sprint motion and convert from in this 0:11:40.760 --> 0:11:44.880 is you know, middlefield open, middlefield closed essentially refers to 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:48.280 single high or too high, if it's split safeties, it's open, 0:11:48.320 --> 0:11:50.480 if it's single highest, close right. And then from there 0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:52.960 they would attack the short games. They would come from 0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:56.480 depth and kind of anticipate to offset the way our 0:11:56.600 --> 0:12:01.480 motion anticipates static movement or lack of movement. I suppose 0:12:01.800 --> 0:12:03.760 from the defense. That's how they got their TfL on 0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:06.440 our first screen and then essentially won the game on 0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:09.080 the Tyreek fumble the same exact way. It's tough to 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:12.560 get the screen game going when you play it defensively 0:12:12.960 --> 0:12:15.959 with that type of anticipation. The good thing from Miami, though, 0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:17.480 is now it's on tape and they have a chance 0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:19.800 to self scout and play off those looks because I'm 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:22.440 sure they'll get them again. I thought this was also 0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:25.400 the best an opponent has done at disrupting our receivers 0:12:25.400 --> 0:12:27.520 to the line of scrimmage a couple of times there, 0:12:27.559 --> 0:12:30.000 you know, anticipating the snap and getting into their jam 0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:32.400 before our guys can even make the release move. We 0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:34.520 saw the Chargers do some of that last year effectively 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:37.199 in the game in December, and that came after the buye. 0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:39.400 I'm excited to see what coach and the staff has 0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:41.920 for an answer to all the things the teams have 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:45.000 had success with against them. You know, in the losses 0:12:45.040 --> 0:12:47.800 we've had, they also beat our cracked toss look a lot. 0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:50.000 And that's why a lot of those tosses just didn't work. 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:53.280 You know, they were ready with their big they got big, 0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:55.880 strong edges on this team. A receiver like Brax and 0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:57.839 Barry was trying to block a George Carl Loftus. He 0:12:58.000 --> 0:13:00.880 was more head on a swivel. And that's probably how 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:02.640 teams're gonna have to play it going forward. So this 0:13:02.679 --> 0:13:04.440 is something that Dolfins is gonna have to adjust to here. 0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:07.560 But they just didn't give our backs any runway going wide. 0:13:07.640 --> 0:13:09.360 They would have to stop their feet, and when you 0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:11.560 do that, the pursuit catches up in this league, and 0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:13.920 you're gonna get nothing if your feet go dead. That 0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:16.800 happened a lot. And look, I'm through the first half. 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:18.959 On my notes here of I note this like kind 0:13:18.960 --> 0:13:21.120 of chronologically as I go through it. I'm through the 0:13:21.160 --> 0:13:25.640 first half, and the first half execution is on the receivers. Man, 0:13:26.040 --> 0:13:28.560 we were disjointed. We didn't get open or even finished 0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:31.079 the concepts half the time, and then on half of 0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:33.560 the times we did, we dropped it. We had an 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:35.800 illegal shift that and the lack of ability to get 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:37.960 the edges in the running game. You're not gonna score 0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:39.520 doing that, and you get blanked for the first time 0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:42.199 in forty games as a result. Then that gets cleaned 0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:44.680 up and we start scoring. But then man, the savon 0:13:44.800 --> 0:13:47.000 achmed toss. You know, I'm not sure if Tua can 0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:50.000 check that or what, but we ran into a numbers 0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:52.480 disadvantage four to five to that side of the formation. 0:13:52.760 --> 0:13:54.679 They shoot it, they blow it up, and a six 0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:56.800 yard loss on first down is tough to overcome. You know. 0:13:56.800 --> 0:13:58.680 It's one thing to have a five yard penalty where 0:13:58.679 --> 0:14:00.160 you can get it back on the first down, but 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:03.079 to lose that yardage stuff to overcome. Let's go ahead 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:04.760 and take our first break right there and come back 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:06.880 on the other side. We'll talk about Tua and the 0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:09.319 rest of the offense. Next Drive Time Podcast, your host 0:14:09.520 --> 0:14:15.200 Travis Wingfield, brought to you by Auto Nation. Back here 0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:17.719 on a Tuesday, All twenty two review edition of the 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:21.000 Drive Time Podcast. We pick it up here talking Toua's game, 0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:24.200 and I didn't put him in the top five, but 0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:25.800 if it wasn't for the last two plays he would 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:28.360 have been there because Tua played good again man till 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:30.680 late until late, and there were some misses and some 0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:32.560 throws that I thought he could have had back. But 0:14:32.560 --> 0:14:34.800 that's every quarterback and every damn game. Let's go ahead 0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:36.760 and go through this thing here. He had two big 0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:39.200 time throws in those first two drives, the opening play 0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:43.000 between a trio of Chiefs defenders to Waddle. Then again 0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:46.320 the next drive between four Chiefs defenders to Tyreek and 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:49.040 the Dolphins were in this max protect two man route combo. 0:14:49.120 --> 0:14:52.960 So Tua he has to anticipate and hit these throws 0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:55.840 with the level of courage that he does. Otherwise this 0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:58.640 offense doesn't work. You guys understand that. But both those 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:00.800 throws are right on the money. But there were more 0:15:00.800 --> 0:15:03.280 misses than usual sprinkled throughout this tape, and that's why 0:15:03.280 --> 0:15:05.080 he doesn't make the top five. And some of them 0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:07.160 are for sure on two. Some of them you know 0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:10.000 have to have you know, an ear to the play 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:12.560 design to know this to really understand. But like there's 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:15.760 a little rail slide combination. Slide is the motion man 0:15:15.800 --> 0:15:17.440 that carries the flat. The rail is the guy that 0:15:17.440 --> 0:15:20.160 goes up the sideline or the seam sometimes just basically 0:15:20.280 --> 0:15:22.240 vertical off a line, and we throw to that guy 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:24.960 a lot, right Tyreek goes in motion to a pumps 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:26.880 to him on that slide, you know, a little route 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:29.600 to the flat. Then Cedric is timing up a rail 0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:33.000 between the linebacker and safety and they're just on different pages. 0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:34.680 And he talked about this in his press college because 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:36.760 I asked him, like, is that something where you know, 0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:39.000 Waddle being down, you playing his role, maybe you're not 0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:40.560 quite on the same page. And he said, like, no, 0:15:40.680 --> 0:15:42.480 we wrap this stuff, you know, time and time again 0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:44.200 to get on the same page. But I think that 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:47.400 Cedric wanted to either settle into a spot and that 0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:49.600 part of the coverage, and I think Tua wanted him 0:15:49.640 --> 0:15:51.560 to cross face because he throws it right at the safety, 0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:53.120 which we've seen him do that millions of times. Throw 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:55.120 it at the defender. The receiver will cut that off 0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:57.760 for you make a play, but he gets a hand 0:15:57.760 --> 0:15:59.200 on it and it winds up going for a myths 0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:01.720 takes a big shots result. And again, Wadle played just 0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:03.760 fifty four percent of the snaps. I think that impacted 0:16:03.800 --> 0:16:06.280 the game a lot because even on those fifty four percent, 0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:08.400 he wasn't moving like he usually does, and all of 0:16:08.440 --> 0:16:10.640 a sudden, you know, if there's an area in this 0:16:10.720 --> 0:16:12.680 team that you look at, like receiver depth is not 0:16:12.760 --> 0:16:14.840 you know, Tygreek and Waddle, you don't have anybody else 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:16.800 liked those guys. So I think getting Craitcraft back will 0:16:16.840 --> 0:16:18.480 be a big boost to the team because he's not 0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:20.920 those guys, but just in terms of intelligence and being 0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:22.400 really supposed to be, he's a He's a big time 0:16:22.440 --> 0:16:24.560 player for this offense, I think. But then to us 0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:27.560 very next throw is this gorgeous back shoulder ball to 0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:30.240 Wattle on a similar route. He's the two to the boundary, 0:16:30.360 --> 0:16:32.280 which is the you know, slot receiver to the short 0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:34.440 side of the field, and the linebacker carries him right 0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:37.800 to safety help and so his inside leverage is cut off, 0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:39.840 his over the top leverage is cut off. There's only 0:16:39.920 --> 0:16:43.040 a small box on the back shoulder, and Tuus throws 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:44.880 this line drive to him and Watle makes a great 0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:47.200 catch off the frame and a great adjustment for that 0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:49.400 grab on third and nine, but we get hit for 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:52.640 an illegal shift even though everybody was set. It might 0:16:52.680 --> 0:16:55.040 not have been a full second, but Tyreek was like 0:16:55.160 --> 0:16:58.880 kind of nonchalant, not getting set. So you know, Tyreek 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:00.880 had some plays this game he probably wants back. Two 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.200 was next throw was a dot and another example of 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:06.080 what makes him great. Man two men route combo repressing 0:17:06.119 --> 0:17:08.960 the safety. You know that means basically running full speed 0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:12.040 to hold them with Wattle running a deep over behind that. 0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:14.960 And two was reading that safety that Tyreek is trying to, 0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:18.399 you know, conflict with his speed off the line, and 0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:20.760
