<v Speaker 2>back at the season that has been, look forward to

0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:04.920
<v Speaker 2>what we should expect the rest of the way, your

0:01:04.959 --> 0:01:06.920
<v Speaker 2>self scout, you get ready for the stretch run. We're

0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:09.959
<v Speaker 2>doing the offense today on the Draft Time Podcast, where

0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:12.360
<v Speaker 2>you each position, look at some numbers and some trends.

0:01:12.600 --> 0:01:15.600
<v Speaker 1>A whole lot more, plus my updated.

0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 2>Season predictions on this episode of the podcast from the

0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:21.360
<v Speaker 2>Baptist Health Studios inside the Baptist Health Training Complex.

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.520
<v Speaker 1>This is the Draft Time podcast May.

0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:29.440
<v Speaker 2>Before we get going today, I want to address something

0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:33.120
<v Speaker 2>very quickly that made the airwaves on Monday Night ahead

0:01:33.160 --> 0:01:37.720
<v Speaker 2>of the Chargers and Jets thriller on Monday Night Football,

0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:41.640
<v Speaker 2>when they had a four minute segment dissecting Miami's quarterback

0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:44.680
<v Speaker 2>in the way that only this quarterback can be dissected

0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:47.800
<v Speaker 2>because he didn't make two plays with the game on

0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:50.840
<v Speaker 2>the line against the NFL or AFC's best team. I

0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:55.040
<v Speaker 2>should say in a different country that he's scared, that

0:01:55.120 --> 0:01:57.040
<v Speaker 2>he's scared to make a play in the pocket because

0:01:57.080 --> 0:01:59.320
<v Speaker 2>he missed two throws really in the entire game. I mean,

0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:01.520
<v Speaker 2>he had a couple more besides that, but you get

0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:04.600
<v Speaker 2>the entire sense. And my good friend Kyle Krabs over

0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:07.560
<v Speaker 2>at Lockdown Dolphins had a great segment on this, and

0:02:07.680 --> 0:02:09.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad he did, but I'm just not going to

0:02:09.880 --> 0:02:12.720
<v Speaker 2>really like dive into the details behind it on the

0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:17.639
<v Speaker 2>show today because I just don't think it's worth giving

0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:21.520
<v Speaker 2>validation to that type of rhetoric and that type of

0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:27.280
<v Speaker 2>conversation because it's utterly ridiculous. So let's move on from

0:02:27.280 --> 0:02:29.639
<v Speaker 2>that and go ahead and hear from or not hear from.

0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:33.200
<v Speaker 2>Just update on Mike McDaniel's Tuesday press conference, he told

0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:35.200
<v Speaker 2>some good news on the injury front. We talked about

0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:37.680
<v Speaker 2>this before the game on Sunday, and I was talking

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:39.880
<v Speaker 2>about the potential of a scenario where you come out

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:43.040
<v Speaker 2>of that game seven and two, first place in the AFC,

0:02:43.440 --> 0:02:45.799
<v Speaker 2>and if you don't have any major critical injuries, you

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:49.640
<v Speaker 2>could potentially have pretty much your entire roster back sans

0:02:49.720 --> 0:02:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Isaiah Win and a couple of guys you know, practice

0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:55.920
<v Speaker 2>squad and depth type of pieces. After your bye week

0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:59.400
<v Speaker 2>and the injury stuff pretty much happened, except for we

0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:01.799
<v Speaker 2>didn't win the game. But Rob Jones is going to

0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:04.560
<v Speaker 2>be week to week. No surgery required for Rob Jones.

0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:07.360
<v Speaker 2>That's great news on that front. We should be getting

0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:09.919
<v Speaker 2>River Craycraft back after the bye week and running back

0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:11.520
<v Speaker 2>to von A Chan, who I think is going to

0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:12.680
<v Speaker 2>be a shot.

0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:12.880
<v Speaker 1>In the arm.

0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:15.520
<v Speaker 2>This defense, or rather this offense right now that has

0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:18.079
<v Speaker 2>kind of hit a little bit, a tiny little bit

0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:20.280
<v Speaker 2>of a loll the last couple of weeks, especially the

0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:22.799
<v Speaker 2>running game in particular, I think a perfect shot in

0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 2>the arm here post bye week to see Devon get

0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:27.440
<v Speaker 2>back out there. He looks really good, ready to go.

0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:30.919
<v Speaker 2>Him and River Craycraft could be big boost to this offense.

0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:34.200
<v Speaker 2>So that's pretty much it. Brandon Jones was back at

0:03:34.200 --> 0:03:37.600
<v Speaker 2>practicing a red medical non contact jersey, So this Dolphins

0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 2>team heads into the bye week pretty healthy. And with that,

0:03:40.480 --> 0:03:43.160
<v Speaker 2>speaking of the buye, I want to do a roster

0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:46.360
<v Speaker 2>review here on the podcast and just kind of give

0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:48.240
<v Speaker 2>you an update on where we are, where I think

0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:50.360
<v Speaker 2>we're going, and what you can look forward to here

0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:53.280
<v Speaker 2>in the second half of the season. We start first

0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:57.760
<v Speaker 2>before any individuals, looking at some team stats and where

0:03:57.760 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 2>they rank.

0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:00.440
<v Speaker 1>Are you guys ready for this? Yards?

0:04:00.480 --> 0:04:03.960
<v Speaker 2>Seven point one yards is not just first in the NFL,

0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:07.120
<v Speaker 2>it would be the most all time if they finished

0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:10.440
<v Speaker 2>at that mark. Total offense almost four thousand yards so

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:11.559
<v Speaker 2>far thirty.

0:04:11.320 --> 0:04:13.640
<v Speaker 1>Nine to eighteen. That is first in the NFL.

0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:16.279
<v Speaker 2>The twenty five one hundred and eighty seven passing yards

0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:19.480
<v Speaker 2>is first in the NFL. The thirteen thirty one rushing

0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:22.360
<v Speaker 2>yards is second. They average thirty one point seven points

0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:25.320
<v Speaker 2>per game and that's most in the NFL EPA per

0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:27.600
<v Speaker 2>play is point one four to seven. That's first in

0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:31.440
<v Speaker 2>the NFL. Their fifty point one percent success rate is third.

0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:35.120
<v Speaker 2>They're tops in red zone at seventy five percent. And

0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:37.360
<v Speaker 2>then this is the one like off the wall stat

0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:40.000
<v Speaker 2>here that's snowhere near the other ones. They're seventeenth and

0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:43.080
<v Speaker 2>third down offense at thirty nine point six percent.

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Not bad, not bad at all.

0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:47.159
<v Speaker 2>Let's go ahead and start here on the roster review

0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:49.440
<v Speaker 2>at the quarterback position, where we always do on these

0:04:49.960 --> 0:04:53.440
<v Speaker 2>roster reviews or film review editions of the podcast. Here,

0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:56.800
<v Speaker 2>I think you start with this, and I tweeted it

0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:59.120
<v Speaker 2>on Tuesday, much to the delight of Dolphins fans, maybe

0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:01.440
<v Speaker 2>the misery a little bit of both. But we've had

0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:05.800
<v Speaker 2>the same quarterbacks start every game this season and only

0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:08.560
<v Speaker 2>exited the game for mop up duty in the blowout

0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:10.719
<v Speaker 2>games we've had, and in fact, this is the first

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:15.200
<v Speaker 2>time the Dolphins have had the same starting quarterback for

0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:18.680
<v Speaker 2>each of the first nine games since twenty sixteen. So

0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:21.920
<v Speaker 2>that's a good thing, right, But where does he rank? Well,

0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:24.120
<v Speaker 2>you probably know this as well. Passing yards for two

0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:27.279
<v Speaker 2>two thousand and six ZHO nine, that's first nineteen touchdown

0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:30.360
<v Speaker 2>passes is all alone in first place. His six point

0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:33.400
<v Speaker 2>two percent touchdown rate is third. His two point three

0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:36.760
<v Speaker 2>percent I rate is eighteenth. But I will say this

0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:39.760
<v Speaker 2>in watching other games around the National Football League and

0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:43.799
<v Speaker 2>a total aside here real quick, like I go on

0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:47.040
<v Speaker 2>Twitter for you know, Jets discourse, because as I tell

0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:49.400
<v Speaker 2>my friends here on the building and co workers, the

0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:53.039
<v Speaker 2>only thing as sweet as Dolphins' success is Jets misery

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:55.520
<v Speaker 2>for me, And like there's a lot of Jets fans

0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:58.280
<v Speaker 2>that think that Zach Wilson is there's something there, and

0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:03.320
<v Speaker 2>that blows my mind. I would wagh way rather have

0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:06.839
<v Speaker 2>a little bit higher of a pick percentage and actually

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:10.200
<v Speaker 2>threaten vertically down the football field than to play you know,

0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:13.800
<v Speaker 2>scared you know, conservative football. No time and place for

0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:15.919
<v Speaker 2>that in twenty twenty three. So what I'm saying is,

0:06:15.960 --> 0:06:19.320
<v Speaker 2>I'll take Tua's two point three percent pick percentage, which

0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:23.279
<v Speaker 2>is still a third of his touchdown percentage, to push

0:06:23.279 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 2>the ball vertically and wind up averaging eight point five

0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.599
<v Speaker 2>yards per ten which is second in the National Football League,

0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:30.839
<v Speaker 2>and have the most touchdowns. To me, it's a very

0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.159
<v Speaker 2>fair trade off. One hundred and thirty first downs is

0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:36.360
<v Speaker 2>first the success rate fifty two point two percent is third.

0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 2>I mentioned the eight point five YPA is second. His

0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:42.040
<v Speaker 2>net yards per dropback is also second, seven point eighty five.

0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:44.880
<v Speaker 2>He gets sacked on three point four percent of his dropbacks,

0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:47.400
<v Speaker 2>that's third lowest in the NFL. His passer rating is

0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:50.440
<v Speaker 2>best one oh six point four, his QBR is sixth

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:53.600
<v Speaker 2>sixty five point three. EPA per play is fourth at

0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:56.640
<v Speaker 2>point one nine to five, and his EPA plus completion

0:06:56.760 --> 0:07:00.720
<v Speaker 2>percentage over expected composite is a stat at analytics. Folks

0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:02.800
<v Speaker 2>love to use. His point one five to seven that's

0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:06.080
<v Speaker 2>fourth in the NFL. So, anyway you splice it, this

0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:08.600
<v Speaker 2>guy is a top three or four quarterback in the NFL.

0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:11.160
<v Speaker 2>Throws twenty plus yards down the field, He's seventeen for

0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:14.400
<v Speaker 2>thirty five. He's damn near fifty percent for six hundred

0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:17.160
<v Speaker 2>and six yards, seven touchdowns, four picks. A lot of

0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:20.640
<v Speaker 2>those picks are basically like third down punts, or quite frankly,

0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:22.600
<v Speaker 2>two of them had passingerferences on the my thought, but

0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:26.160
<v Speaker 2>I digress. A ninety four point eight passer rating on

0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 2>just the twenty plus yard air throws. That's very, very

0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:31.400
<v Speaker 2>That's better than some quarterbacks total rating that includes their

0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:33.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, their screen games, and they're built in completions

0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:36.600
<v Speaker 2>throws of ten plus air yards, He's seventy.

0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:37.800
<v Speaker 1>For one to eighteen. That's absurd.

0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:41.320
<v Speaker 2>For fifteen hundred yards, ten touchdowns and five picks. That's

0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 2>a passer rating.

0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:43.200
<v Speaker 1>Of one oh two point two.

0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Take away all the throws under ten yards and he

0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:47.680
<v Speaker 2>still would be the third highest.

0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Rated quarterback in the NFL. This dude's ridiculous.

0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:52.560
<v Speaker 2>Against the blitz, He's seventy for one oh one with

0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:55.320
<v Speaker 2>seven hundred and thirty two yards, eight touchdowns and no picks.

0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:56.080
<v Speaker 1>We he blitzed Tua.

0:07:56.240 --> 0:07:58.640
<v Speaker 2>He has a passer rating of one sixteen point four

0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:01.520
<v Speaker 2>when you pressure him though, twenty one for fifty five

0:08:01.560 --> 0:08:04.280
<v Speaker 2>two hundred and ninety yards, two touchdowns, two picks, a

0:08:04.320 --> 0:08:06.840
<v Speaker 2>passer rating of fifty two point eight. But you already

0:08:06.920 --> 0:08:09.480
<v Speaker 2>knew about all those stats, right, and we knew that

0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:11.600
<v Speaker 2>he was doing that last year. But in terms of

0:08:11.640 --> 0:08:15.520
<v Speaker 2>Tua's tape, I think there's been marked improvement in critical

0:08:15.520 --> 0:08:18.520
<v Speaker 2>areas of any quarterbacks game. I think he's processing as

0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:22.240
<v Speaker 2>fast as any QB in the NFL. He's expanded the

0:08:22.280 --> 0:08:24.720
<v Speaker 2>offense into the third and fourth option when he has to.

0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:26.840
<v Speaker 2>He's getting it too, is hot when he has to.

0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:29.880
<v Speaker 2>That was always the area of Tua's game that was

0:08:29.920 --> 0:08:31.800
<v Speaker 2>going to set him apart as a pro right, his

0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:35.080
<v Speaker 2>ability to react before the defense, and I think that

0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:39.520
<v Speaker 2>his development into the very best player in the NFL

0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:42.600
<v Speaker 2>in that department has helped produce those stats. I just

0:08:42.679 --> 0:08:45.160
<v Speaker 2>ran off to you in an offense that accentuates what

0:08:45.240 --> 0:08:47.520
<v Speaker 2>he does well. And I'll argue this until I'm blue

0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:50.560
<v Speaker 2>in the face. It's not the only thing that matters, but.

0:08:50.480 --> 0:08:52.480
<v Speaker 1>It is the most important thing for a quarterback.

0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:56.280
<v Speaker 2>That and accuracy, which when those two are really hardwired together,

0:08:56.600 --> 0:08:59.200
<v Speaker 2>that's perfect. And I think that's where Tua is also

0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:01.719
<v Speaker 2>the best in the NFL, which is why there are

0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:04.440
<v Speaker 2>not five quarterbacks in the NFL. I'd rather take over

0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:07.320
<v Speaker 2>this guy. So he has taken that trape and improved it,

0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:10.240
<v Speaker 2>polished it. I won't say perfected it because he's twenty

0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:13.040
<v Speaker 2>five years old. But I'm excited about what we have

0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:15.680
<v Speaker 2>here for the long term, not just for this season,

0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:17.760
<v Speaker 2>where I think the bye week and some extra study

0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:20.199
<v Speaker 2>and some time off to rest and heal and mentally

0:09:20.320 --> 0:09:24.560
<v Speaker 2>kind of refocus will help him perform even better down

0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:26.720
<v Speaker 2>the second half of the schedule here, especially with how

0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:28.400
<v Speaker 2>the schedule shakes out here in the second half of

0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:31.520
<v Speaker 2>the season, but also beyond this season.

0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Right, These are the types of skills that.

0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 2>Only improve and enhance when your quarterback gets older, has

0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.200
<v Speaker 2>more reps and has just seen more football, especially when

0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:44.640
<v Speaker 2>that quarterback is as dedicated to the craft.

0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:45.840
<v Speaker 1>As to it has displayed.

0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:48.160
<v Speaker 2>It's not like the you know, Russell Wilson, what was

0:09:48.160 --> 0:09:50.199
<v Speaker 2>his entire game, right, it was movement and getting off

0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:54.199
<v Speaker 2>the spot. It's the entire nature of his game kind

0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:56.200
<v Speaker 2>of went backwards when he didn't have that in his

0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:58.520
<v Speaker 2>back pocket anymore. And you know, like Lamar Jackson, one

0:09:58.520 --> 0:10:00.559
<v Speaker 2>of the best quarterbacks in the world, he loses that

0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:03.319
<v Speaker 2>running ability. Things change there a little bit, but not

0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:05.120
<v Speaker 2>for Tua. I think he has the chance to be

0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:06.960
<v Speaker 2>one of his guys that plays into his late thirties

0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:09.720
<v Speaker 2>at a high, high level that's fifteen years down the road.

0:10:10.040 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 2>I think he's shown a better propensity this year for

0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:15.960
<v Speaker 2>creating off script. I don't think anybody would mistake to

0:10:16.360 --> 0:10:18.120
<v Speaker 2>for one of the more fleet of foot quarterbacks in

0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:19.599
<v Speaker 2>the NFL. And there are times where he gets a

0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:22.480
<v Speaker 2>little bit stuck in quicksand under pressure when he has

0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:23.360
<v Speaker 2>to like eat a sack.

0:10:23.440 --> 0:10:24.080
<v Speaker 1>But that's okay.

0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:26.640
<v Speaker 2>Like I mean, I grew up watching Tom Brady and

0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:30.079
<v Speaker 2>Peyton Manning swap MVP awards every other year, and they

0:10:30.160 --> 0:10:33.000
<v Speaker 2>protected themselves against sacks and got down when the pressure

0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:36.520
<v Speaker 2>was imminent every single time. That's how you play sixteen

0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:39.440
<v Speaker 2>games a year for X number of years. The numbers

0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:42.400
<v Speaker 2>against pressure have decreased this year. He was top five

0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:44.560
<v Speaker 2>and passer rating last season against pressure. Not the case

0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:46.360
<v Speaker 2>this year. I already told you by the stats there.

0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:49.360
<v Speaker 2>But he's been under pressure far less frequently, and I

0:10:49.360 --> 0:10:51.280
<v Speaker 2>think he's done a better job of just throwing the

0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:53.280
<v Speaker 2>ball away. So you wind up with these games where

0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:55.920
<v Speaker 2>he's like, you know, two for five with twelve yards

0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:58.040
<v Speaker 2>versus pressure. And then he had like the pick six

0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:00.800
<v Speaker 2>against the Giants, which just you know, de your numbers

0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:02.319
<v Speaker 2>when you have a pick like that on a low

0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:05.920
<v Speaker 2>sample size. So small sample size, but in an area

0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:07.920
<v Speaker 2>he can improve upon. In the second half of the season,

0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:10.680
<v Speaker 2>I think he's protected the football better this year. There's

0:11:10.720 --> 0:11:13.679
<v Speaker 2>been almost no throws that were quote unquote dropped. I

0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:17.360
<v Speaker 2>INT's In fact, his INT number is one fewer than

0:11:17.400 --> 0:11:19.920
<v Speaker 2>his turnover worthy play number. I do think there could

0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:21.959
<v Speaker 2>be better ball security in terms of fumbles, but he's

0:11:21.960 --> 0:11:23.959
<v Speaker 2>also been tabbed with like six fumbles that aren't even

0:11:24.000 --> 0:11:26.480
<v Speaker 2>his responsibility this year where it's a bad snapper, you know,

0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:28.360
<v Speaker 2>raheem not putting the ball away in the belly.

0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Where can he take his game to the next level.

0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:34.440
<v Speaker 2>I think just continuing to sharpen up the operation, particularly

0:11:34.440 --> 0:11:35.400
<v Speaker 2>in road environments.

0:11:35.400 --> 0:11:36.560
<v Speaker 1>But that's really the whole team.

0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:39.440
<v Speaker 2>I think you can tie the miss throws almost every

0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:42.000
<v Speaker 2>time to the footwork, which is usually pristine and why

0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:44.760
<v Speaker 2>there are so few bad throws here, but every quarterback

0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:47.000
<v Speaker 2>has them. And with Tua, I think it's because he

0:11:47.080 --> 0:11:49.280
<v Speaker 2>doesn't hitch up. He hits the top of that drop

0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:51.640
<v Speaker 2>and kind of fades back into the throw and winds

0:11:51.720 --> 0:11:54.120
<v Speaker 2>up having not enough club right, Like, you have one

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:55.920
<v Speaker 2>hundred and fifty yards into the pin, you get the

0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:57.960
<v Speaker 2>nine to iron at least that's what I hit the

0:11:57.960 --> 0:12:00.720
<v Speaker 2>ball far, big dog, but you can fat and only

0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:03.000
<v Speaker 2>goes one hundred and twenty yards. But even still, like

0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:05.480
<v Speaker 2>the Chargers game, for instance, you know, thirty five yard touchdown,

0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:08.440
<v Speaker 2>the Tyreek Giants game sixty nine yard touchdown the Tyreek

0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:13.319
<v Speaker 2>Panthers game forty one yard touchdown to Tyreek. Eagles game

0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:15.959
<v Speaker 2>twenty seven yard touchdown to Tyreek. Patriots game forty two

0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:18.640
<v Speaker 2>yard touchdown to Tyreek. Every single one of those throws

0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:21.320
<v Speaker 2>is they perfectly placed deep ball to the perimeter On

0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:24.040
<v Speaker 2>each one, It's that the top of the drop, clean footwork,

0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:27.280
<v Speaker 2>hitch up, dime touchdown. As far as the critiques for me,

0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:30.040
<v Speaker 2>their minimal. He's played the best quarterback in the league

0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:33.040
<v Speaker 2>for long stretches this year. Even his air quote down

0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:36.240
<v Speaker 2>games categorically ranked with the middle of the pack quarterbacks

0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:38.640
<v Speaker 2>in the NFL from a production standpoint. But really the

0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:41.200
<v Speaker 2>film as well, I think he's really raised his floor.

0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:43.880
<v Speaker 2>His worst tape for me this year was the Giants game,

0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:46.719
<v Speaker 2>and I think that tape clears his worst tapes from

0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:48.640
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty two. In fact, I think it clears four

0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:50.720
<v Speaker 2>of his worst tapes last year Patriots. In the opener,

0:12:50.800 --> 0:12:53.679
<v Speaker 2>I hated that tape. The Niners tape bunch of misthrows.

0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:56.520
<v Speaker 2>Chargers game was an abject failure from the entire offense,

0:12:56.559 --> 0:12:58.400
<v Speaker 2>the Packers game, the three picks in the second half.

0:12:58.480 --> 0:12:59.839
<v Speaker 1>I think each of those games.

0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:01.600
<v Speaker 2>Was worse than his worst game this year, so he's

0:13:01.640 --> 0:13:03.559
<v Speaker 2>raised the ceiling and the floor. I say it all

0:13:03.600 --> 0:13:06.320
<v Speaker 2>the time, we should consider ourselves fortunate that this guy

0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:08.240
<v Speaker 2>is the guy we get to watch every single week

0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:11.440
<v Speaker 2>for the foreseeable future. How many times has he appeared

0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:14.240
<v Speaker 2>in Travis's top five tapes this year? Seven out of

0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:16.960
<v Speaker 2>the nine games, three times the first tape four in

0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:18.920
<v Speaker 2>second place. I tend to put the quarterback up high

0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:21.000
<v Speaker 2>when he plays well, so that's kind of a little

0:13:21.000 --> 0:13:23.439
<v Speaker 2>bit waited for the position. But he's had a great year.

0:13:23.640 --> 0:13:26.080
<v Speaker 2>Only the Giants and KC game did not produce a

0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:28.120
<v Speaker 2>top five tape from me. And then I want to

0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:30.679
<v Speaker 2>finish up every single one of these positional categories with

0:13:31.000 --> 0:13:33.360
<v Speaker 2>where Travis Scott at right, where Traviscott it wrong, and

0:13:33.360 --> 0:13:34.440
<v Speaker 2>here where I got it right.

0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:38.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean Michael Jordan, security guard Jiff where Travis got

0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:38.800
<v Speaker 1>it wrong?

0:13:38.800 --> 0:13:40.440
<v Speaker 2>And I hate starting this way because it almost puts

0:13:40.440 --> 0:13:42.199
<v Speaker 2>me in a position where I have to defend myself.

0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:45.040
<v Speaker 2>But damn it, damn it, I feel like I've been

0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:47.280
<v Speaker 2>pretty aligned to the truth. On two, going back to

0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:49.640
<v Speaker 2>his Alabama days, pointing out the superpowers that have become

0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:52.560
<v Speaker 2>evident the most acknowledging some of the shortcomings and where

0:13:52.600 --> 0:13:55.600
<v Speaker 2>he can get better. Better mechanics on short throws, better creativity,

0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:58.160
<v Speaker 2>better operation, and I promise the next segment I will

0:13:58.200 --> 0:14:00.439
<v Speaker 2>talk about things I got wrong, not just.

0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:01.400
<v Speaker 1>All about how right I am.

0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:03.760
<v Speaker 2>Here, Mike White's thrown two passes, a touchdown and a

0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:06.480
<v Speaker 2>pick feast or famine. That's hilarious to me. Skyler hasn't

0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:07.719
<v Speaker 2>played in a games. Let's go ahead and move on

0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:09.079
<v Speaker 2>to running backs. But let's go ahead and take a

0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:12.040
<v Speaker 2>break first. On the Draft Time Podcast, your host Travis Wingfield,

0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:18.080
<v Speaker 2>brought to you by Auto Nation, we are reviewing the

0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:20.440
<v Speaker 2>Dolphins offense in the first half of the season here

0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:23.560
<v Speaker 2>on this Wednesday edition of the Draft Time Podcast. Plenty

0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:25.720
<v Speaker 2>more by week content coming your way, including JT. O.

0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:28.280
<v Speaker 2>Sullivan and Channing Crowder here on the podcast. Cannot wait

0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:29.640
<v Speaker 2>to talk to those guys. Let's go ahead and talk

0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:31.640
<v Speaker 2>about some running backs here. I'm not sure how you

0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:34.200
<v Speaker 2>can be anything but thrilled with how this room has

0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:36.840
<v Speaker 2>performed this season. The only downside really has been the

0:14:36.880 --> 0:14:41.480
<v Speaker 2>injuries they've had to overcome. Raheem has played through some

0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Nixon bruises, Devon has missed some time, obviously, and that sucks.

0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:47.120
<v Speaker 2>Jeff missed the first five games, Stavon missed some time,

0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:50.080
<v Speaker 2>Chris Brooks currently on IR. But they've weathered the storm

0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:52.600
<v Speaker 2>and helped contribute a top two rushing attack and score

0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:55.760
<v Speaker 2>just as many touchdowns as the Ravens in the running game,

0:14:55.800 --> 0:14:57.560
<v Speaker 2>but they have Lamar Jackson scoring some of those. So

0:14:57.600 --> 0:15:00.720
<v Speaker 2>Dolphins running backs have the most total ted, especially when

0:15:00.760 --> 0:15:02.119
<v Speaker 2>you include receiving touchdowns.

0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:03.720
<v Speaker 1>And then don't forget.

0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:06.120
<v Speaker 2>The best fullback in football, baby alec Ingold, has been

0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:09.560
<v Speaker 2>so instrumental in all this Dolphins success this season. I

0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:12.680
<v Speaker 2>think the vision and feel for each guy in the

0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:15.280
<v Speaker 2>system is better in year two. Obviously, both the rookies

0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:17.120
<v Speaker 2>are new to the room. But with Raheem, and I

0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:19.360
<v Speaker 2>say it all the time, it clicked for him last

0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:21.480
<v Speaker 2>year down the stretch, coming off that twenty twenty one

0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:24.400
<v Speaker 2>knee injury, playing behind a new line, a new team,

0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:26.600
<v Speaker 2>he was a monster in the final five games. I

0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:29.240
<v Speaker 2>thought that carried over into success this year. I think

0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:31.760
<v Speaker 2>the whole group just has a smoother feel for the tracks,

0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:34.080
<v Speaker 2>the gaps, and their decision making. It's been one of

0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:37.520
<v Speaker 2>the top running back rooms in the NFL for ah moster, fast, aggressive,

0:15:37.560 --> 0:15:40.400
<v Speaker 2>gets north and south, strong as hell, tough to tackle.

0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:42.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure what else there is to say. He

0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:45.280
<v Speaker 2>doesn't get squared up. He finds broken tackles all over

0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:48.600
<v Speaker 2>the field. He has more rushing yards post thirtieth birthday

0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:51.480
<v Speaker 2>than he did pre thirtieth birthday. Like a fine whine

0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:54.920
<v Speaker 2>this guy twenty nine missed force tackles three point eighty

0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:57.800
<v Speaker 2>six average after contact. What can you say about rookie

0:15:57.800 --> 0:16:00.320
<v Speaker 2>Devon h chan Man. I think his speed, in addition

0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:03.600
<v Speaker 2>to providing explosive plays with stunning regularity, I think some

0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:05.280
<v Speaker 2>of the runs we've had the last few weeks would

0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:07.280
<v Speaker 2>have been longer had he been in the game. I

0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:09.440
<v Speaker 2>think it also opens up the passing game, though, I

0:16:09.440 --> 0:16:11.800
<v Speaker 2>think you've just begun to scratch the surface with him

0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:14.080
<v Speaker 2>in terms of ways to incorporate him in the offense.

0:16:14.560 --> 0:16:18.040
<v Speaker 2>The kids played what Denver three games. He's got this

0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:20.640
<v Speaker 2>impact already. I cannot wait to see what he does

0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:22.680
<v Speaker 2>for the offense. He's the shot in the arms. Running

0:16:22.680 --> 0:16:26.000
<v Speaker 2>game needs fifteen miss tackles forced seven point four to

0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:30.360
<v Speaker 2>two yards after initial contact. Savon Akhmed provided some valuable

0:16:30.360 --> 0:16:32.160
<v Speaker 2>depth early in the season, had some big plays in

0:16:32.200 --> 0:16:35.000
<v Speaker 2>the charger game. Essentially every time that you needed to

0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:37.600
<v Speaker 2>lean on him for some bang, he was able.

0:16:37.480 --> 0:16:37.960
<v Speaker 1>To provide that.

0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:39.800
<v Speaker 2>But I thought the last couple of weeks has slowed

0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:41.960
<v Speaker 2>down a little bit, a little more indecisive. I think

0:16:42.000 --> 0:16:44.880
<v Speaker 2>that his perfect role is that third down role with

0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:47.160
<v Speaker 2>the kate with a focus on special teams, the best

0:16:47.200 --> 0:16:50.080
<v Speaker 2>way forward. Four miss tackles forced three point one six

0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:52.600
<v Speaker 2>yards after contact. For Jeff Wilson has not had a

0:16:52.640 --> 0:16:54.560
<v Speaker 2>chance to get going. Looks a little bit slow out

0:16:54.560 --> 0:16:56.320
<v Speaker 2>of the blocks in terms of coming back from the injury,

0:16:56.560 --> 0:16:58.600
<v Speaker 2>but he's had some games down to get his conditioning

0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:01.680
<v Speaker 2>to where it was pre rehab work. We all saw

0:17:01.680 --> 0:17:04.119
<v Speaker 2>how explosive he was when he first got here last year.

0:17:04.320 --> 0:17:06.199
<v Speaker 2>Haven't seen that same burst this year. But now with

0:17:06.240 --> 0:17:08.240
<v Speaker 2>a week off in the bye week, hopefully he can

0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:10.439
<v Speaker 2>get back to himself for the stretch run here just

0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:13.840
<v Speaker 2>one mistackle force two point five seven yards after initial contact.

0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:16.680
<v Speaker 2>Chris Brooks just loved the way he fulfilled that kind

0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:19.200
<v Speaker 2>of h back role, but then the few carries showed

0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:21.960
<v Speaker 2>some absolute physicality. He's got a future in this league,

0:17:22.000 --> 0:17:22.800
<v Speaker 2>no doubt about that. To me.

0:17:23.119 --> 0:17:24.399
<v Speaker 1>Eight miss tackles.

0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:26.959
<v Speaker 2>Forced six point seven three yards after initial contact. Man,

0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:29.600
<v Speaker 2>he's a good player. Alec Ingold is so selfless, so

0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:32.639
<v Speaker 2>integral to the offense. Asked to fulfill a multitude of

0:17:32.720 --> 0:17:35.960
<v Speaker 2>jobs on any given week, just an awesome player catches, passes,

0:17:35.960 --> 0:17:39.000
<v Speaker 2>cleans out, defensive tackles on wam, solidifies the edge, attacks

0:17:39.119 --> 0:17:40.359
<v Speaker 2>linebackers one on one.

0:17:40.480 --> 0:17:41.400
<v Speaker 1>What more can you say?

0:17:42.160 --> 0:17:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Top tape appearances here for this group, moster has two.

0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:47.000
<v Speaker 2>I had him third in the Carolina game, fifth in

0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:49.960
<v Speaker 2>the Patriots game that was in New England. HN has

0:17:50.000 --> 0:17:51.440
<v Speaker 2>been all three games he's played.

0:17:51.440 --> 0:17:51.879
<v Speaker 1>The Giants.

0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:54.600
<v Speaker 2>He was third, Buffalo he was second, Denver he was first,

0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:57.480
<v Speaker 2>and Aleck got one against the Patriots back on week

0:17:57.560 --> 0:17:59.640
<v Speaker 2>number two. He was third in that game where Travis

0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:02.159
<v Speaker 2>Scott right whereheem was plenty good and his speed to

0:18:02.200 --> 0:18:04.920
<v Speaker 2>the edge was a fantastic compliment to the offense, as

0:18:04.920 --> 0:18:07.520
<v Speaker 2>well as his physicality late in twenty twenty two would

0:18:07.520 --> 0:18:09.960
<v Speaker 2>translate to this season and then h and a player

0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:13.160
<v Speaker 2>I was very excited about, and that Dalvin Cook was

0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:14.919
<v Speaker 2>washed and Miami would be foolish to give him any

0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:15.600
<v Speaker 2>additional money.

0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:16.640
<v Speaker 1>Where Travis got it wrong.

0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:18.680
<v Speaker 2>I probably oversold the depth of the room a little

0:18:18.680 --> 0:18:20.840
<v Speaker 2>bit in terms of Akmed's ability to be a like

0:18:21.640 --> 0:18:24.080
<v Speaker 2>a spell for your starting running back again, I think

0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:26.560
<v Speaker 2>third down back and special teams is the way forward there.

0:18:26.800 --> 0:18:29.040
<v Speaker 2>At wide receivers, I mean, one of the best rooms

0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:31.800
<v Speaker 2>in football. Once again, it's been tough for Jalen this

0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:34.159
<v Speaker 2>year with the injuries and replacing River Craykraft. It's been

0:18:34.160 --> 0:18:36.760
<v Speaker 2>a challenge, but it's nice to see Cedric step up.

0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:38.520
<v Speaker 2>I think if there's one thing you could hope to

0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:42.359
<v Speaker 2>see more, it's just general depth. Obviously, losing Azukamma and

0:18:42.440 --> 0:18:44.600
<v Speaker 2>cray Craft plays into that. I think Miami does have

0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:46.880
<v Speaker 2>a third receiver issue right now in terms of developing

0:18:46.920 --> 0:18:49.840
<v Speaker 2>who that might be for you long term. But I

0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:51.640
<v Speaker 2>think at times we've been a little bit too dependent

0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:53.920
<v Speaker 2>on Tyreek. Could you stand to spread the.

0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:54.280
<v Speaker 1>Ball out more?

0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:56.040
<v Speaker 2>And that includes a lot more waddle for me than

0:18:56.040 --> 0:18:59.200
<v Speaker 2>anything else. Speaking of the individual's, Tyreek has just been Tyreek.

0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:00.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean over a thousand yards the first half of

0:19:01.040 --> 0:19:04.080
<v Speaker 2>the season on pace to crush pffs yards per route

0:19:04.160 --> 0:19:07.680
<v Speaker 2>ran Metric, all time, super efficient, very little wasted movement

0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:10.000
<v Speaker 2>in his game. I think his release has been better,

0:19:10.160 --> 0:19:12.560
<v Speaker 2>the timing of his routes has been better. He always

0:19:12.560 --> 0:19:15.560
<v Speaker 2>angles back towards the quarterback on end breakers and outbreakers.

0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:18.280
<v Speaker 2>His understanding of time and feel and route concept has

0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:20.200
<v Speaker 2>always been good, but I feel like it's been great

0:19:20.480 --> 0:19:23.520
<v Speaker 2>this year. Doesn't short change routes even as the clearout guy.

0:19:23.560 --> 0:19:25.760
<v Speaker 2>He puts in full effort, electric with the ball in

0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:28.240
<v Speaker 2>his hands. Seems to have helped our quarterback in terms

0:19:28.280 --> 0:19:31.640
<v Speaker 2>of pre snap communication. Eyes follow him all over the field,

0:19:31.640 --> 0:19:33.480
<v Speaker 2>which has helped our red zone offense even if he

0:19:33.480 --> 0:19:37.600
<v Speaker 2>doesn't get the football, giving him his you know, helping

0:19:37.640 --> 0:19:40.200
<v Speaker 2>Tua to understand coverage and kind of giving some feedback

0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:42.320
<v Speaker 2>after the snap I think is critical if there's a

0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:45.359
<v Speaker 2>couple of knocks, too many drop balls. But also the

0:19:45.440 --> 0:19:47.119
<v Speaker 2>Case and Philly games I thought were his worst of

0:19:47.160 --> 0:19:49.320
<v Speaker 2>the year. Those are the big games, big stages. Guys

0:19:49.320 --> 0:19:51.200
<v Speaker 2>step up in those games. Sixty nine catches, one thousand

0:19:51.240 --> 0:19:53.880
<v Speaker 2>and seventy five yards, eight touchdowns, eleven point four yards

0:19:53.880 --> 0:19:56.120
<v Speaker 2>per target, three point nine to five yards per route ran.

0:19:56.640 --> 0:19:56.880
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

0:19:57.320 --> 0:19:59.720
<v Speaker 2>I commend Waddell for gutting his way through some performances

0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:01.800
<v Speaker 2>this year where he gets dinged up. The numbers have

0:20:01.880 --> 0:20:04.720
<v Speaker 2>not been the same, but his effort. His competitiveness definitely

0:20:04.800 --> 0:20:07.399
<v Speaker 2>is like Tyreek. The drops have been an issue at times,

0:20:07.560 --> 0:20:09.000
<v Speaker 2>but this is one of the best weapons in the

0:20:09.040 --> 0:20:12.119
<v Speaker 2>National Football League. I expect a monster second half from Waddell,

0:20:12.320 --> 0:20:14.400
<v Speaker 2>though I've said that all year long. Forty catches, five

0:20:14.520 --> 0:20:17.120
<v Speaker 2>hundred and twenty two yards, three touchdowns, eight point five

0:20:17.200 --> 0:20:19.040
<v Speaker 2>yards per target, two point three to three yards per

0:20:19.160 --> 0:20:21.639
<v Speaker 2>route Ran Barrios, you know, I thought there would be

0:20:21.640 --> 0:20:23.639
<v Speaker 2>a little bit more separation inside in terms of the

0:20:23.640 --> 0:20:26.080
<v Speaker 2>one on one slot receiver role, and he's made some

0:20:26.480 --> 0:20:28.440
<v Speaker 2>critical third down catches. I just thought it would be

0:20:28.480 --> 0:20:30.600
<v Speaker 2>a little bit more expansive than it has been so far.

0:20:30.920 --> 0:20:33.680
<v Speaker 2>Twenty grabs, one ninety four in a touchdown.

0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:34.440
<v Speaker 1>For Cedric Wilson.

0:20:34.480 --> 0:20:36.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm really curious to see how his role evolves here

0:20:36.520 --> 0:20:38.560
<v Speaker 2>as the offense, you know, matures from the second half

0:20:38.560 --> 0:20:39.080
<v Speaker 2>of the season.

0:20:39.280 --> 0:20:40.680
<v Speaker 1>He's been getting more and more involved.

0:20:40.880 --> 0:20:43.000
<v Speaker 2>His size down the red zone has a lot of value,

0:20:43.080 --> 0:20:45.720
<v Speaker 2>tough contested catches for touchdowns the last two weeks, and

0:20:45.760 --> 0:20:49.880
<v Speaker 2>he knows the offense from every position, which is obviously supervalue. Valuable,

0:20:49.920 --> 0:20:52.480
<v Speaker 2>I should say, in terms of the depth on this team.

0:20:52.760 --> 0:20:55.560
<v Speaker 2>He has nine for one forty eight and two River Craykraft.

0:20:55.560 --> 0:20:57.399
<v Speaker 2>I can't wait to get him back his blocking and

0:20:57.440 --> 0:20:59.520
<v Speaker 2>he always is going to be where he's supposed to be.

0:21:00.000 --> 0:21:03.200
<v Speaker 2>Sixty or six catches, eighty seven yards, one touchdown, top

0:21:03.240 --> 0:21:07.479
<v Speaker 2>tape appearances for this group. Tyreek has four Patriots, Carolina, Giants,

0:21:07.480 --> 0:21:11.080
<v Speaker 2>and Chargers. Waddle has two Patriots and Bills. Where Travis

0:21:11.080 --> 0:21:13.520
<v Speaker 2>got it right, Tyreek is the best receiver in the NFL.

0:21:13.680 --> 0:21:14.520
<v Speaker 1>That's kind of it here.

0:21:14.520 --> 0:21:16.280
<v Speaker 2>I've been off on a lot of these where Travis

0:21:16.280 --> 0:21:19.160
<v Speaker 2>got it wrong. Injuries didn't help, but I thought Azukama

0:21:19.240 --> 0:21:20.960
<v Speaker 2>was going to be a the third receiver make a

0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:23.679
<v Speaker 2>critical massive step this year. Barrios has not been the

0:21:23.720 --> 0:21:26.879
<v Speaker 2>matchup winner I predicted either. And I've called for massive

0:21:26.920 --> 0:21:29.160
<v Speaker 2>Waddle days pretty much every week and it's only happened

0:21:29.200 --> 0:21:31.280
<v Speaker 2>one time. So a lot wrong there for you, boy

0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:34.439
<v Speaker 2>tight ends. Not a lot to speak about here, but

0:21:34.440 --> 0:21:36.960
<v Speaker 2>I think both Durham and Julian have been unsung heroes

0:21:36.960 --> 0:21:39.760
<v Speaker 2>of the offense. Tons of dirty work that goes unnoticed.

0:21:39.920 --> 0:21:42.360
<v Speaker 2>They have been tremendous helping the edge in pass pro,

0:21:42.680 --> 0:21:45.040
<v Speaker 2>hitting correct angles on their blocks coming across and split

0:21:45.119 --> 0:21:47.600
<v Speaker 2>flow and just awesome extensions of what's been a good

0:21:47.600 --> 0:21:50.720
<v Speaker 2>offensive line. Durham has seventeen grabs for a buck sixty eight,

0:21:50.920 --> 0:21:53.440
<v Speaker 2>Julian has one for four. Nobody here in the top

0:21:53.480 --> 0:21:56.000
<v Speaker 2>tapes appearances, but it's tough to get in with that role.

0:21:56.359 --> 0:21:58.119
<v Speaker 1>Just appreciate what those guys have done.

0:21:58.200 --> 0:22:00.920
<v Speaker 2>Where Travis got it right here, Honestly, there's not any

0:22:01.000 --> 0:22:03.119
<v Speaker 2>I suppose I didn't cry that the sky was falling

0:22:03.320 --> 0:22:05.920
<v Speaker 2>when the position looked bad in camp where Travis got

0:22:05.920 --> 0:22:08.359
<v Speaker 2>it wrong. I was a big Elijah Higgins fan. I

0:22:08.400 --> 0:22:10.000
<v Speaker 2>said he'd be the best tight end on the roster

0:22:10.040 --> 0:22:10.720
<v Speaker 2>by the end of the year.

0:22:10.760 --> 0:22:13.119
<v Speaker 1>Whoops. I also said Tanner Connor is gonna have a

0:22:13.119 --> 0:22:14.560
<v Speaker 1>big role this year. Whoops.

0:22:15.200 --> 0:22:18.159
<v Speaker 2>Also was out on durham smythe whoops over three across

0:22:18.160 --> 0:22:20.080
<v Speaker 2>the board there, offensive line?

0:22:20.080 --> 0:22:21.120
<v Speaker 1>What can you say here? Man?

0:22:21.320 --> 0:22:24.439
<v Speaker 2>The connectivity in terms of knowing their roles, getting games

0:22:24.440 --> 0:22:26.600
<v Speaker 2>and blitz is picked up, getting pushed in the running game,

0:22:26.760 --> 0:22:29.720
<v Speaker 2>and to have done it through so much attrition a

0:22:29.800 --> 0:22:33.720
<v Speaker 2>credit to everybody right. Personnel department, coaches, players just total

0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:36.399
<v Speaker 2>buy in to reteach the way they do things and

0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:39.639
<v Speaker 2>to be more and more emphatic about the way hands

0:22:39.680 --> 0:22:41.760
<v Speaker 2>and feet and punch and all that stuff marries together.

0:22:42.080 --> 0:22:44.919
<v Speaker 2>It's allowed this offense to flourish the way it has individually.

0:22:45.200 --> 0:22:47.760
<v Speaker 2>To Ron Armstead changes the way you call a game man.

0:22:48.000 --> 0:22:50.680
<v Speaker 2>He is superb and pass pro. He almost never gets beat,

0:22:51.280 --> 0:22:53.400
<v Speaker 2>moves guys out in the running game. That his athletic

0:22:53.400 --> 0:22:55.639
<v Speaker 2>ability off the edge. It's a different level than what

0:22:55.800 --> 0:22:57.720
<v Speaker 2>Kendall Lamb gives you. As much as I love Kendall,

0:22:57.920 --> 0:23:01.040
<v Speaker 2>t stads like Austin Jackson athletic obviously, the only thing

0:23:01.080 --> 0:23:03.240
<v Speaker 2>here with him is availability. He's missed six of the

0:23:03.320 --> 0:23:05.120
<v Speaker 2>nine games we need him the rest of the way.

0:23:05.160 --> 0:23:06.720
<v Speaker 2>His pass block efficiency is ninety.

0:23:06.600 --> 0:23:09.399
<v Speaker 1>Nine point four. He's elite. Isaiah Win was elite too.

0:23:09.400 --> 0:23:10.600
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully he gets back this year.

0:23:10.760 --> 0:23:12.399
<v Speaker 2>Been one of the best left guards in football with

0:23:12.520 --> 0:23:15.800
<v Speaker 2>fantastic pass pro lots of one on one Wins super

0:23:15.840 --> 0:23:19.359
<v Speaker 2>connected to Connor or Tehran or Liam or Kendall on

0:23:19.440 --> 0:23:21.399
<v Speaker 2>his right and left post. He's been kind of a

0:23:21.440 --> 0:23:24.359
<v Speaker 2>stabilizing force. And that pass block efficiency of ninety nine

0:23:24.440 --> 0:23:27.479
<v Speaker 2>point one, it's top of the line man. Connor Williams

0:23:27.520 --> 0:23:29.760
<v Speaker 2>has the exact same pbe ninety nine point one. The

0:23:29.760 --> 0:23:32.480
<v Speaker 2>way he creates lanes in space, the way he hits

0:23:32.480 --> 0:23:35.440
<v Speaker 2>those pivotal reach blocks like Tehran. He allows this offense

0:23:35.480 --> 0:23:38.320
<v Speaker 2>to do things you just cannot do without him. Elite

0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:42.080
<v Speaker 2>athletic ability, fantastic and solo pass pro tremendous at helping

0:23:42.080 --> 0:23:45.320
<v Speaker 2>the guards in pass pro. Penalties and aborted snaps are

0:23:45.600 --> 0:23:47.720
<v Speaker 2>the only downside, but has been a big downside this

0:23:47.800 --> 0:23:49.879
<v Speaker 2>year so far. Robert Hunt, copy and Paste and the

0:23:49.920 --> 0:23:52.600
<v Speaker 2>other three guys just enjoy watching him steamroll guys for

0:23:52.640 --> 0:23:55.119
<v Speaker 2>pancakes every single week. I think he's a pro bowler.

0:23:55.400 --> 0:23:58.280
<v Speaker 2>He's been beat like three times in pass Pro, and

0:23:58.280 --> 0:24:01.160
<v Speaker 2>they're bad beats that result in sacks, but otherwise he's

0:24:01.200 --> 0:24:04.359
<v Speaker 2>a perfect player. Ninety nine percent pass block efficiency. What

0:24:04.440 --> 0:24:07.160
<v Speaker 2>a year for Austin Jackson. I mean, the elite athletic

0:24:07.200 --> 0:24:09.399
<v Speaker 2>ability fits the profile of this line to a t.

0:24:09.800 --> 0:24:12.160
<v Speaker 2>He's a critical part of our outside run game. He's

0:24:12.200 --> 0:24:14.680
<v Speaker 2>also handled to his blindside as well as anybody could.

0:24:14.720 --> 0:24:17.920
<v Speaker 2>I think, awesome, awesome season for Austin Jackson. How many

0:24:17.920 --> 0:24:20.840
<v Speaker 2>guys can say they've gotten top performances out of six

0:24:20.920 --> 0:24:21.760
<v Speaker 2>offensive lineman.

0:24:22.000 --> 0:24:23.399
<v Speaker 1>I think Kendall Land gives you that.

0:24:23.440 --> 0:24:26.199
<v Speaker 2>The patience that he displays in pass pro mean in

0:24:26.240 --> 0:24:28.560
<v Speaker 2>the running game, just a total pro. We are so

0:24:28.680 --> 0:24:30.960
<v Speaker 2>fortunate to have this guy ninety six point eight pass

0:24:30.960 --> 0:24:33.080
<v Speaker 2>block efficiency, but I feel like that doesn't do.

0:24:33.119 --> 0:24:34.879
<v Speaker 1>His game justice. Lester Cotton.

0:24:34.960 --> 0:24:37.680
<v Speaker 2>I think he's done an admirable job in the role

0:24:37.720 --> 0:24:39.639
<v Speaker 2>he's been asked to do. Gotten some good surge in

0:24:39.680 --> 0:24:41.560
<v Speaker 2>the running game, but a couple of times in terms of,

0:24:42.040 --> 0:24:44.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, connecting on stunts and games inside, I think

0:24:44.640 --> 0:24:46.439
<v Speaker 2>the backups have strugged where the starters have been really

0:24:46.480 --> 0:24:49.040
<v Speaker 2>good in that regard ninety five point seven PvE. For

0:24:49.119 --> 0:24:52.360
<v Speaker 2>Liam I can Burn ninety seven point four. It's good

0:24:52.400 --> 0:24:53.679
<v Speaker 2>that he's in the role he's in because I think

0:24:53.720 --> 0:24:56.119
<v Speaker 2>your backup center should be just your backup center and

0:24:56.200 --> 0:24:57.920
<v Speaker 2>not have to get plugged in a guard.

0:24:57.960 --> 0:24:59.080
<v Speaker 1>Just focus on that position.

0:24:59.520 --> 0:25:02.639
<v Speaker 2>Might even the stretch we'll see, but it's been a

0:25:02.720 --> 0:25:04.719
<v Speaker 2>rough tape, but I think that there's a role developing

0:25:04.720 --> 0:25:07.200
<v Speaker 2>there for Liam as the backup center. Rob Jones ninety

0:25:07.240 --> 0:25:10.160
<v Speaker 2>eight point four pbe Gosh. I hate the injury because

0:25:10.160 --> 0:25:11.760
<v Speaker 2>he such a good dude and works so hard, but

0:25:11.800 --> 0:25:13.320
<v Speaker 2>he's played well when he's been out there. And then

0:25:13.400 --> 0:25:15.600
<v Speaker 2>Keon Smith played five snaps, but I thought he was

0:25:15.640 --> 0:25:17.160
<v Speaker 2>a guy that had no chance to make the roster,

0:25:17.240 --> 0:25:20.000
<v Speaker 2>and he did so. He's been showing great improvement and

0:25:20.040 --> 0:25:22.840
<v Speaker 2>growth over the course of camp. In the preseason top

0:25:22.880 --> 0:25:25.080
<v Speaker 2>tape appearances. Here we have five guys that have appeared.

0:25:25.119 --> 0:25:28.760
<v Speaker 2>Toront Armstead was fourth tape in Kansas City, his only appearance.

0:25:29.040 --> 0:25:32.120
<v Speaker 2>Hunt had won in Philadelphia, he was fourth there. Isaiah

0:25:32.160 --> 0:25:34.520
<v Speaker 2>Win has two appearances. He was fourth in both the

0:25:34.520 --> 0:25:37.760
<v Speaker 2>Carolina and Denver games. Kendall Lamb appeared in the open

0:25:37.800 --> 0:25:39.959
<v Speaker 2>against the Chargers of the fourth top tape. And how

0:25:40.000 --> 0:25:42.880
<v Speaker 2>about this, Austin Jackson has four appearances in my top

0:25:42.960 --> 0:25:45.080
<v Speaker 2>five tapes. I had him his number one against the Giants,

0:25:45.400 --> 0:25:47.800
<v Speaker 2>three against the Bills, three against the Broncos, and three

0:25:47.800 --> 0:25:50.040
<v Speaker 2>against the Chargers. T Stead was in there for the

0:25:50.040 --> 0:25:51.720
<v Speaker 2>Denver game, but I took him out because he came

0:25:51.720 --> 0:25:55.480
<v Speaker 2>out early and went with Connor or rather Austin to

0:25:55.520 --> 0:25:58.240
<v Speaker 2>win instead. And then Connor has been like just outside

0:25:58.280 --> 0:26:00.440
<v Speaker 2>the top five and pretty much every game he's played

0:26:00.440 --> 0:26:02.960
<v Speaker 2>this year. Where Travis got it right that you guys

0:26:03.040 --> 0:26:06.080
<v Speaker 2>freaked out way too prematurely about where this offensive line

0:26:06.119 --> 0:26:08.280
<v Speaker 2>was going into the season and how the quarterback can

0:26:08.280 --> 0:26:10.479
<v Speaker 2>mitigate some of the issues you thought you had. That

0:26:10.600 --> 0:26:13.080
<v Speaker 2>Rob Hunt is an elite right guard, that Isaiah Winn

0:26:13.119 --> 0:26:15.000
<v Speaker 2>was a great fit at left guard, that Connor's a

0:26:15.040 --> 0:26:17.080
<v Speaker 2>top center, and that Lamb can flat out play.

0:26:17.240 --> 0:26:18.800
<v Speaker 1>Where I got it wrong was the guy that's been

0:26:18.800 --> 0:26:19.400
<v Speaker 1>probably the best.

0:26:19.400 --> 0:26:21.639
<v Speaker 2>I thought, Austin Jackson, like you, probably didn't have it

0:26:21.640 --> 0:26:24.199
<v Speaker 2>in his game, but he has clearly figured it out

0:26:24.240 --> 0:26:25.320
<v Speaker 2>at this stage of his career.

0:26:25.400 --> 0:26:26.520
<v Speaker 1>So there you go.

0:26:26.800 --> 0:26:29.360
<v Speaker 2>That's your first half of the season offensive review. We'll

0:26:29.359 --> 0:26:32.520
<v Speaker 2>do a defense on I believe next Monday's podcast. Let's

0:26:32.560 --> 0:26:34.280
<v Speaker 2>go ahead and take our last break right here, come

0:26:34.280 --> 0:26:37.160
<v Speaker 2>back on the other side and update my twenty twenty

0:26:37.200 --> 0:26:40.719
<v Speaker 2>three season predictions. We'll review where I stand, my original predictions,

0:26:40.720 --> 0:26:43.160
<v Speaker 2>and where I'm going from here. That's next Draft Time podcast.

0:26:43.240 --> 0:26:48.159
<v Speaker 2>Your host Travis Wingfield brought to you my autnation. So

0:26:48.320 --> 0:26:50.639
<v Speaker 2>I've been tinkering with this for a while now because

0:26:50.680 --> 0:26:52.520
<v Speaker 2>well forty eight hours because.

0:26:52.240 --> 0:26:53.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know about you guys, but Sunday.

0:26:53.680 --> 0:26:56.120
<v Speaker 2>Night I couldn't sleep and was because my freaking brain

0:26:56.240 --> 0:26:59.760
<v Speaker 2>kept on rattling through different scenarios and final records and

0:26:59.760 --> 0:27:02.480
<v Speaker 2>what's see we might finish with I know that's premature,

0:27:02.520 --> 0:27:04.439
<v Speaker 2>but you know, I was trying to find ways to

0:27:04.480 --> 0:27:06.480
<v Speaker 2>cope because mentally and emotionally I was not in a

0:27:06.480 --> 0:27:09.840
<v Speaker 2>good place after that defeat against the Chiefs. But I

0:27:09.880 --> 0:27:12.040
<v Speaker 2>came to this conclusion, and I think Miami's gonna win

0:27:12.040 --> 0:27:13.520
<v Speaker 2>the next five games. I've told you guys that for

0:27:13.560 --> 0:27:16.240
<v Speaker 2>a long time now, especially after that Jets performance. Right,

0:27:16.359 --> 0:27:17.679
<v Speaker 2>we know that they don't have a quarterbacks, so it's

0:27:17.680 --> 0:27:19.200
<v Speaker 2>gonna be tough to win games. Even when your defense

0:27:19.280 --> 0:27:22.159
<v Speaker 2>is elite like theirs is just score thirteen points, you

0:27:22.160 --> 0:27:23.560
<v Speaker 2>should beat that team, and as long as you don't

0:27:23.560 --> 0:27:25.560
<v Speaker 2>turn it over, you know, deep in your own territory.

0:27:25.640 --> 0:27:28.280
<v Speaker 2>The Jets have only scored one touchdown since Week five

0:27:28.640 --> 0:27:30.600
<v Speaker 2>that started on their own side of the field, and

0:27:30.600 --> 0:27:33.280
<v Speaker 2>that was in Week five, a seventy two yard Breaste

0:27:33.280 --> 0:27:35.440
<v Speaker 2>Hall rushing touchdown. They don't score points, but they don't

0:27:35.440 --> 0:27:37.840
<v Speaker 2>have the ball on unless they're in your territory when

0:27:37.840 --> 0:27:39.800
<v Speaker 2>they get the football. So at eleven and three, if

0:27:39.840 --> 0:27:41.840
<v Speaker 2>you win the next five games, you would clinch the

0:27:41.880 --> 0:27:46.520
<v Speaker 2>AFC East before the Dallas game, unless Buffalo goes three

0:27:46.520 --> 0:27:49.720
<v Speaker 2>and two or better against this stretch of teams, Denver

0:27:49.800 --> 0:27:52.800
<v Speaker 2>and the Jets. That's probably two wins at Philly at

0:27:52.920 --> 0:27:57.560
<v Speaker 2>KC home for Dallas, and then if they don't do

0:27:57.600 --> 0:27:59.760
<v Speaker 2>it there, they would have to beat the Chargers on

0:27:59.840 --> 0:28:03.119
<v Speaker 2>set before the Christmas Eve game to keep alive in

0:28:03.160 --> 0:28:06.280
<v Speaker 2>the AFC East Race. I think Miami clinches the division

0:28:06.320 --> 0:28:09.000
<v Speaker 2>before that Dallas game. That's my prediction. Let's go ahead

0:28:09.000 --> 0:28:10.800
<v Speaker 2>and view my first half of the season predictions, which

0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:14.200
<v Speaker 2>were this going back to September eighth. Honestly, a lot

0:28:14.240 --> 0:28:16.520
<v Speaker 2>of these are pretty much where I'm at right now.

0:28:17.280 --> 0:28:20.520
<v Speaker 2>I had, Gosh, these are this is a pretty up.

0:28:20.680 --> 0:28:22.080
<v Speaker 2>I had Buffalo at twelve and five. I think that's

0:28:22.080 --> 0:28:24.520
<v Speaker 2>gonna be way off. I had Houston at four and thirteen.

0:28:24.560 --> 0:28:27.560
<v Speaker 2>That's gonna be way off. Jacksonville nine and eight, it's

0:28:27.560 --> 0:28:29.359
<v Speaker 2>gonna be a little bit short. I think I had

0:28:29.440 --> 0:28:34.119
<v Speaker 2>the God, these are all close, man. Washington seven and ten,

0:28:34.160 --> 0:28:35.800
<v Speaker 2>maybe a little bit off. Green Bay ten and seven,

0:28:35.840 --> 0:28:38.240
<v Speaker 2>that one's way off. Detroit nine and eight I think

0:28:38.240 --> 0:28:41.160
<v Speaker 2>will be short by a little bit. I don't Tampa

0:28:41.160 --> 0:28:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Bay three and fourteen is gonna be off. I rams

0:28:44.880 --> 0:28:46.680
<v Speaker 2>four and thirteen. I was pretty spot on here, man.

0:28:46.680 --> 0:28:49.000
<v Speaker 2>My playoffs were this Detroit or in the NFC, my

0:28:49.080 --> 0:28:52.440
<v Speaker 2>number one seed was Philly, two seed was Seattle, my

0:28:52.520 --> 0:28:54.720
<v Speaker 2>three seed was green Bay, My four sea was Atlanta.

0:28:54.760 --> 0:28:57.720
<v Speaker 2>My wild cards were Dallas, San Francisco and Detroit.

0:28:58.240 --> 0:29:01.040
<v Speaker 1>That's pretty close. Man. In the A I had one

0:29:01.080 --> 0:29:01.520
<v Speaker 1>through seven.

0:29:01.600 --> 0:29:05.560
<v Speaker 2>Seed was Case, Miami, Baltimore, Jacksonville, ISS your division winners,

0:29:05.720 --> 0:29:09.520
<v Speaker 2>and then Buffalo, Cincinnati and Los Angeles. That feels pretty good,

0:29:09.520 --> 0:29:11.680
<v Speaker 2>and I had the Dolphins over the Eagles in the

0:29:11.720 --> 0:29:15.880
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl. Now my predictions now, I've changed them, not much, though,

0:29:16.040 --> 0:29:17.800
<v Speaker 2>here's what I'm going with. In the NFC, I think

0:29:17.840 --> 0:29:19.760
<v Speaker 2>Philly is the best team in football sixteen and one,

0:29:19.920 --> 0:29:21.920
<v Speaker 2>Dallas ten and seven. I just think there's a tough

0:29:21.960 --> 0:29:23.560
<v Speaker 2>games there for Dallas, even though I like him a lot.

0:29:23.840 --> 0:29:26.040
<v Speaker 2>Washington's seven and ten, so I stayed there. The Giants

0:29:26.040 --> 0:29:27.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't have winning a game the rest of the

0:29:27.200 --> 0:29:28.720
<v Speaker 2>way two and fifteen, but I only had him with

0:29:28.760 --> 0:29:30.560
<v Speaker 2>five wins in my other predictions, so not bad.

0:29:30.600 --> 0:29:30.880
<v Speaker 1>There.

0:29:31.120 --> 0:29:34.240
<v Speaker 2>In the North, I have Detroit eleven and six, Minnesota

0:29:34.280 --> 0:29:36.000
<v Speaker 2>and green Bay both eight and nine. I was too

0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:39.000
<v Speaker 2>high on Jordan Love Chicago three and fourteen. That's about

0:29:39.000 --> 0:29:40.960
<v Speaker 2>where I was. In the South, I have the Saints

0:29:40.960 --> 0:29:42.400
<v Speaker 2>at ten and seven and the Falcons nine in a

0:29:42.520 --> 0:29:45.160
<v Speaker 2>only because they played the whole division like over again

0:29:45.360 --> 0:29:48.320
<v Speaker 2>and that division's awful. Tampa six and eleven, Carolina three

0:29:48.320 --> 0:29:51.200
<v Speaker 2>and fourteen. In the West, I have Frisco. I flipped

0:29:51.200 --> 0:29:52.600
<v Speaker 2>it there. I had Seattle winning the division at the

0:29:52.600 --> 0:29:54.400
<v Speaker 2>start of the year. Gave me San Francisco at twelve

0:29:54.400 --> 0:29:57.280
<v Speaker 2>and five, Seattle eleven and six, Rams seven and ten,

0:29:57.320 --> 0:29:58.960
<v Speaker 2>and Cardinals at three and fourteen now that they have

0:29:59.040 --> 0:30:01.880
<v Speaker 2>Kyler back in the AFC, Miami twelve and five. I

0:30:01.920 --> 0:30:03.880
<v Speaker 2>had them at thirteen and four, so one game less

0:30:04.400 --> 0:30:07.760
<v Speaker 2>Buffalo actually, and you know what, I have Miami resting.

0:30:07.560 --> 0:30:09.200
<v Speaker 1>Stars in Week eighteen losing the game to Buffalo.

0:30:09.240 --> 0:30:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Otherwise I would go thirteen and four, Buffalo ten and seven,

0:30:12.240 --> 0:30:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Jets seven and ten, which is two games off where

0:30:15.000 --> 0:30:17.040
<v Speaker 2>I had them in the preseason, and the Patriots five

0:30:17.080 --> 0:30:19.440
<v Speaker 2>and twelve. I had them at six and eleven, Baltimore

0:30:19.440 --> 0:30:22.920
<v Speaker 2>fourteen and three, Bengals twelve and five, Cleveland and Pittsburgh

0:30:22.920 --> 0:30:25.800
<v Speaker 2>both eight and nine. In the South, Jacksonville wins eleven

0:30:25.840 --> 0:30:28.880
<v Speaker 2>and six, Houston nine and eight, Indian Tennessee both seven

0:30:28.920 --> 0:30:31.440
<v Speaker 2>and ten, and then the West case fourteen and three

0:30:31.560 --> 0:30:34.800
<v Speaker 2>Chargers excuse me, ten and seven, Denver seven and ten,

0:30:34.840 --> 0:30:36.480
<v Speaker 2>in Las Vegas five and twelve. So that gives you

0:30:36.560 --> 0:30:39.600
<v Speaker 2>an AFC playoff picture of this number seven seed Buffalo

0:30:39.640 --> 0:30:42.640
<v Speaker 2>at number two seed Baltimore, number six Chargers come to

0:30:42.680 --> 0:30:45.680
<v Speaker 2>Miami for the three seeded Dolphins and the Cincinnati Bengals

0:30:45.720 --> 0:30:48.360
<v Speaker 2>are the first wild card. They visit Jacksonville on wild

0:30:48.400 --> 0:30:52.120
<v Speaker 2>Card weekend. I have Baltimore winning, I have the Dolphins winning.

0:30:52.160 --> 0:30:55.200
<v Speaker 2>I have Cincinnati winning. But if Buffalo were to beat Baltimore,

0:30:55.200 --> 0:30:58.280
<v Speaker 2>in that scenario, you would then host the AFC Divisional Round,

0:30:58.480 --> 0:31:01.040
<v Speaker 2>and then after that, I have my beating Baltimore. I

0:31:01.120 --> 0:31:04.920
<v Speaker 2>have KC beating Cincinnati, but in that scenario, if Cincinnati

0:31:04.960 --> 0:31:07.520
<v Speaker 2>beats KC, you would host the AFC Championship game. In

0:31:07.560 --> 0:31:10.960
<v Speaker 2>the NFC, there is not a seven seed that is

0:31:11.040 --> 0:31:13.320
<v Speaker 2>deserving of it's it's gonna be six teams and then

0:31:13.320 --> 0:31:14.480
<v Speaker 2>somebody else in the playoffs.

0:31:14.640 --> 0:31:15.040
<v Speaker 1>This year.

0:31:15.080 --> 0:31:16.320
<v Speaker 2>It's like, go look at the NFC and tell me

0:31:16.320 --> 0:31:19.680
<v Speaker 2>who you picked that seven seed. Like it's like Commanders Vikings,

0:31:20.600 --> 0:31:22.240
<v Speaker 2>like there's not a good option for it. But I

0:31:22.280 --> 0:31:26.479
<v Speaker 2>went Falcons against the Niners, Dallas number six at number three,

0:31:26.520 --> 0:31:29.400
<v Speaker 2>Detroit number five, Seattle at the Saints in the NFC

0:31:29.520 --> 0:31:31.880
<v Speaker 2>South Division winners. So in the division round, I have

0:31:31.960 --> 0:31:35.440
<v Speaker 2>Seattle in San Francisco, Dallas at Philly, and then I

0:31:35.480 --> 0:31:37.680
<v Speaker 2>have a repeat of last year's MC championship game at

0:31:37.680 --> 0:31:40.440
<v Speaker 2>San Francisco. Who loses to Philly? And then I flipped

0:31:40.440 --> 0:31:42.920
<v Speaker 2>my Super Bowl pick. It was Miami over Philly. I'm

0:31:42.920 --> 0:31:45.600
<v Speaker 2>going Miami or Philly rather over over Miami. I think

0:31:45.600 --> 0:31:48.240
<v Speaker 2>Philly is unstoppable. Man, They're just two good. So that's

0:31:48.280 --> 0:31:50.560
<v Speaker 2>my updated predictions. I feel really good about this. And

0:31:50.600 --> 0:31:52.800
<v Speaker 2>it's another feather in the cap of if you're process

0:31:53.160 --> 0:31:57.000
<v Speaker 2>changes dramatically after one or two games, your process sucks.

0:31:57.040 --> 0:31:59.600
<v Speaker 2>That's good to I guess another feather in the cap

0:31:59.600 --> 0:32:00.720
<v Speaker 2>of the old tring field over here.

0:32:00.720 --> 0:32:02.680
