The most comprehensive preview show you 0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:53.760 will find on your Miami Dolphins.

Lucas Oil Stadium for a one o'clock kickoff. 0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:07.160 Our next three games are at one o'clock. Five of 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:09.960 the next six are at one o'clock. What a beautiful 0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:12.360 day that is for us that work the games and 0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:15.800 several hours after the games, it's gonna be in a dome, 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:18.400 so no weather to talk about there. Let's go ahead 0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:20.440 and meet the Colts, who we have not seen since 0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:23.240 twenty twenty one. We have not seen that building since 0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:27.759 twenty nineteen. Quick show of hands, who remembers the Colts. 0:01:27.520 --> 0:01:30.440 Being in the AFC East. 0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:33.360 You know, I've been having this sort of existential crisis lately, 0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:35.560 as I'm sure many of us do, as we approach 0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:38.520 the age of forty. My brother just turned forty. Happy 0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:43.000 birtha the old man. Huh'm forty, and the kids just 0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:45.679 seem to get like a year older every month. It 0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:48.520 seems like my little girl was just a baby the 0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:50.920 other day and now she's, you know, kind of sassy 0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:52.640 and talking back here and there. So there's that to 0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:55.520 live with. But here's an example. I was thinking about 0:01:55.600 --> 0:02:00.920 how content creators nowadays, like, Okay, So I fell asleep 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:03.600 after the Bills kicked that field goal to go up 0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:06.720 twenty three to twenty the other night, Travis, wat's another 0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:08.880 sign that you are watched. You fall asleep watching football 0:02:08.919 --> 0:02:11.880 games now And so I came into work on Tuesday 0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:13.880 and wanted to see how the game ended because I 0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:15.560 knew the result, but I didn't know how we got there. 0:02:15.600 --> 0:02:17.480 So I pulled up game pass, had the all twenty 0:02:17.520 --> 0:02:20.680 two the condensed file and the original broadcast copy were 0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:23.120 all one click away, and it reminded me how I 0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:25.560 used to rewatch games a long time ago. I'll never 0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:28.440 forget this. After my senior year of high school, which 0:02:28.520 --> 0:02:31.480 was five oh six, I was going into junior college 0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:33.840 and still living at home that upcoming fall semester in 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:36.239 two thousand and six. And I'm not even sure why 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:38.800 it happened, but two thousand and five was when I 0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:41.280 went from what I would consider to be a casual 0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:44.760 Dolphins fan to completely obsessed. It was actually when I 0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:46.840 joined message boards and filled up a lot of my 0:02:46.919 --> 0:02:49.560 free time. While people were playing Halo or maybe even 0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:52.400 working part time jobs, I was on message boards talking 0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:55.160 about the Dolphins and football, and two of my favorite 0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:58.280 games from that season were the opener against the Broncos, 0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:00.720 the one that I asked Mike mc daniel about in 0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:02.679 my first meeting with him back when he got hired 0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:04.600 in twenty twenty two, because that was his first NFL 0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:07.079 game as a ballboy or rather an assistant i should say, 0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:09.920 for the Broncos, and the Week three win over the Panthers. 0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:11.480 Both of those teams would go on to play in 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:14.080 the Championship games that year, and Miami be both of 0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:16.120 them in the first three games of the season. So 0:03:16.200 --> 0:03:19.079 I found this website that sold old Dolphins games and 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:21.639 they were on VHS at the time. I don't think 0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:23.720 it was associated with the league in anyway, So I 0:03:23.760 --> 0:03:26.120 don't know how the guy was doing that legally because 0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:29.040 without the express britten concent of the National Football League. 0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:31.920 But man, when I tell you that I went to 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:34.480 the mailbox every single day for two weeks waiting for 0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:37.720 those VHS tapes to arrive, that's my old man way 0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:38.440 of saying. 0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:40.400 You're young, and you have no idea how good you 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:40.920 have it. 0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:44.800 I ran those VHS tapes so frequently that the tape 0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:47.720 literally wore out that Broncos game that I have it 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:49.560 like skips when I try to put it back in 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.960 the VCR at least last I checked in like twenty fourteen, 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:56.360 whenever that was all right, tangent aside. That was just 0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:59.160 four years after the Colts moved from the East to 0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:02.560 the AC southal when they realigned the league from six 0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:05.600 divisions up to eight, And man, I held the Colts 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.120 in the same regard as the Bills, Jets and Patriots 0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:11.520 for such a long time. It has since lessened for me, 0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:14.120 I think probably because of the most recent run of 0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:17.640 difficult years for them. You heard JJ Stankowitz on the 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:20.599 show yesterday What a Name, by the way, mentioned this 0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:23.279 veteran quarterback hamster Will they've been on for the last 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:26.880 half decade. Now, when you're changing quarterbacks every single year, 0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:28.920 you're probably not winning a lot of football games. 0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:29.360 Now. 0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:32.920 Last year they were a dropped swing pass away from 0:04:32.960 --> 0:04:35.520 having a first and goal on a drive that had 0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:38.200 it finished in the paint, they would have made the playoffs. 0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:41.640 Not the Houston Texans, the darling of last year, who 0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:44.200 have since gone on to improve their roster and make 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:46.520 themselves the team that everyone thought they could be. But 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:48.480 they were really close to losing out in the playoffs 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:50.760 all together last year because the Colts dropped the wide 0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:52.640 up and pass in the flat. And that was with 0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:56.479 Gardner Minshew go Koog's playing in fifteen of the seventeen 0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:59.200 games and starting thirteen of them. And I was a 0:04:59.240 --> 0:05:02.760 big Gardner Minshew coming out. He hasn't quite lived up 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:05.000 to those expectations, but he is an NFL quarterback that 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:08.920 probably is that fringe spot starter slash quality backup. The 0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:11.320 last time they did make the playoffs. Well, it was 0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:17.560 actually the first or wait yeah, the first year that 0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:20.400 they were able to go get a veteran quarterback after 0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:23.600 Andrew Luck's shocking retirement, which, by the way, if you're 0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:27.960 into scripted podcasts, it's called Luck. It was an athletic production. 0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:30.120 It's one of the best podcasts I've heard about the 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:32.479 career and life of Andrew Luck and how injuries and 0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:35.919 Colt's decision making over years led to the most shocking 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:40.119 retirement our league has seen since Ricky Williams, maybe even 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:43.839 Barry Sanders. But Phil Rivers was the quarterback that was 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.279 there in twenty twenty for their last good season, and 0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:49.080 he damn near guided them in the first year of 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:52.040 seven playoff teams with a seven seed to beat a 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:53.920 two seed when they lost to Buffalo by three in 0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:56.839 the wild card round after the pandemic season, after they 0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.680 went eleven to five. Since then, it's been Carson Wentz 0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:01.920 eight that was kind of a miracle with him there, 0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:04.360 and then Matt Ryan four and twelve and one an 0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:08.720 absolute disaster. Then Anthony Richardson with Gardner Minshew going nine 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:11.680 to eight last year, the first under Shane Steiken, who 0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:14.240 has really earned his stripes as one of the top 0:06:14.279 --> 0:06:17.240 offensive innovators in all of football. They're a team largely 0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:19.880 built through the draft. They have studs like Quentin Nelson, 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:23.720 Ryan Kelly, Braden Smith, Bernard Raymond, all draft picks up front. 0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:25.279 And by the way, I keep seeing this on Twitter, 0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:27.200 the Colts are not going to trade Quentin Nelson, So 0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:29.360 shut up, like they're not going to trade that guy. 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:31.920 They're in a playoff spot right now. Jonathan Taylor was 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:34.159 a second round draft pick there. He's their their bell 0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:37.120 cow back. Michael Pittman, Josh Downs, and of course Anthony 0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:41.320 Richardson on defense, Kenny Moore, Grover Stewart, Juju Brentz, Julian Blackman. 0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:44.000 All those guys were draft picks on that defense. They 0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:47.280 have not been huge free agency buyers, but arguably their 0:06:47.279 --> 0:06:49.760 best player, and I would say he is their best player, 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:53.120 was acquired via trade and DeForest Buckner, but he's been 0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:54.960 on the injury reserve since their first game and his 0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:58.120 eligible return this week. We'll find out more on him 0:06:58.200 --> 0:07:00.880 going as we go along throughout the course of this week. 0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:03.880 They're kind of difficult to peg. As far as the team. 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:06.520 I wouldn't say they're star laden, but they have a 0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:09.679 nice collection of talent, but also plenty of unproven parts 0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:12.040 that makes their future a little bit of a mystery, 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:14.080 as is the case with every team, but just in 0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:16.920 terms of known quantities, they don't have a lot of them. 0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:18.960 Let's go ahead and get to the Colts offense here 0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:21.560 in their scheme. I mentioned Steichen as one of the 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.440 top innovators in the game. I think the thing that 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:27.520 he does so well and creates easy throws for his 0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:31.400 quarterback while keeping things relatively simple where they get to 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:35.480 the same core concepts, but they do it from different alignments, groupings, 0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:39.120 and presentations. And quite frankly, that's how Travis Winfield operated 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:41.200 his online Madden teams. I ran with the same four 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:43.680 plays and would just call hot routes and adjustments and 0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:45.920 shift the formations at the lion of scrimmage. 0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:48.120 I was basically the modern day Peyton manning of Madden. 0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:50.760 One thing I will harp on with the switch back 0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:53.560 to Richard sim is the Colts red zone offense changes 0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:56.040 drastically with him in the game, as is the case 0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:58.320 with most teams that a quarterback is you know who 0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:00.440 is just as dangerous with his legs he is his 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:02.920 arms maybe even more dangerous, and in this case, with 0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:05.480 how he's developed so far, I would say that is 0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:08.160 the case. For instance, they are twelve of twenty one 0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:10.640 scoring touchdowns in the red zone. Not bad, not great. 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:14.480 They're five of eleven under Flacco, but seven for ten 0:08:14.520 --> 0:08:18.240 with Richardson. They just find a way to push the 0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:19.920 ball over the goal line when they get down there. 0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:21.800 With Richardson in the game, and you can see how 0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:25.360 Ar and JT pair together so well with what Stykean 0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:27.160 wants to do, especially in that part of the field, 0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:31.480 and that's played tight condensed formations across multiple formations. They 0:08:31.600 --> 0:08:33.760 bring in so many tight ends and receivers in nasty 0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:36.160 splits to add gaps in the running game. They create 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:38.120 space to the perimeter and the vertical game. 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:39.359 It's a weird. 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:41.880 Comparison to make because he was there during the run 0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:43.679 we mentioned off the top, but it kind of reminds 0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:45.560 me of Frank Reich, you know, coach the Colts the 0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:47.160 last time he was a coach in this league, where 0:08:47.200 --> 0:08:49.240 they would get to three and four vert concepts from 0:08:49.240 --> 0:08:52.480 twelve to thirteen personnel and get multiple tight ends running 0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:55.439 vertical routes from these you know, bunches and condensed formations, 0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:59.080 And again, I think Jonathan Taylor is a massive, massive 0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:01.680 part of that, so his availability for this game to 0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:04.760 me will be a very big deal. When I watch 0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:07.480 the Colts on tape, it reminds me of our offense 0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:10.400 in the sense that the structure and design does a 0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:13.120 really good job of showing multiple looks and keys for 0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:17.080 defenders to present that proverbial cheese and then hope to 0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:20.959 exploit the space created by the false steps and misreads 0:09:21.000 --> 0:09:23.960 of those players. They go this way seventy five percent 0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:27.199 eleven personnel. That's one back, one tight end, three receivers. 0:09:27.480 --> 0:09:29.720 The rest of it is basically twelve personnel. Twenty one 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:32.120 percent of the time they have one back, two tight ends, 0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:35.760 and two receivers. The remainder of that is thirteen personnel. 0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:37.760 Four percent of the time they don't have a full back. 0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:40.840 They never run two back sets, literally zero snaps in that. 0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:44.520 And they also have run just a single play without 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:46.640 a tight end of four receiver sets. So you're only 0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:49.880 going to get eleven personnel and twelve personnel and the 0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:52.959 occasional thirteen personnel look from this offense. 0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.680 So it's all the same. How do you attack it? 0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:59.520 Well, I think it's tough because as I watched on 0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:02.319 a coach clinic to study to get ready for this game, 0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:05.720 the general thing I learned is that it's a simplified 0:10:05.760 --> 0:10:07.559 offense in the sense that they run a lot of 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:10.560 the same plays from different pre snap presentations. And what 0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:13.320 I saw further into that research was a Colt McCoy 0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:15.800 video on his Underdog film study show that he does. 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:18.199 He said that Steichen has a great feel for what 0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:21.600 coverages he believes he will get for those calls based 0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:24.439 upon the percentages, so he has a good in game, 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:27.240 game day feel for play calling. That's why I think 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:30.000 the best way to attack it, well, it's always this way. 0:10:30.480 --> 0:10:32.560 You just have to be multiple. And I think the 0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:34.360 best thing for the Dolphins, and the best thing they've 0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:36.440 done as a team this year is on defense with 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:39.080 their ability to be multiple and how they marry their 0:10:39.120 --> 0:10:41.720 coverages in their fronts and present it in different ways. 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:44.440 And I think this defense, you know, sands a couple 0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:47.040 of big runs here and there has been dynamite and 0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:49.200 I think if the Colts fail to hit the big run, 0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:52.520 I think will be in great shape from a defensive standpoint, 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.000 and that takes us into the first Big three or 0:10:55.040 --> 0:10:56.880 the first of the Big three against the Colts offense 0:10:56.920 --> 0:11:01.840 here and I just simply wrote down blitz and that's 0:11:01.880 --> 0:11:05.079 probably the most generic, basic take you'll get here on 0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:07.559 the Drift Time podcast of all time. But I think 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:11.080 when you consider the matchup of the Dolphins rushers versus 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:13.160 a very good Colts line, I don't like the way 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:15.360 that plays out for Miami and a quarterback that has 0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:17.360 struggled to play from the pocket so far in his 0:11:17.400 --> 0:11:19.440 whole career. I think the best thing you can do 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:22.280 is to mix up your looks enough to play contain 0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:25.080 rush for don't try to go get him, let him 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:27.680 come to you, and then send the extra rusher that 0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:31.120 speeds up his processor to then either a get home 0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:33.280 and make the sack. That would be great, because if 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:35.679 he escapes, that changes everything. But blitz him up the middle, 0:11:35.880 --> 0:11:38.000 rush contain outside, keep him in the pocket, make him 0:11:38.000 --> 0:11:40.720 play from there. You basically want to mirror and react 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:43.120 to him. Don't try to go get him or b 0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:45.640 it forces the ball out of his hand without a 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:48.280 clean base or an altered arm angle, and that's when 0:11:48.320 --> 0:11:49.960 the ball can get away from him. He has a 0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:52.640 very hirky, jerky motion that the ball just doesn't always 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:55.200 go in the same position. I think people bag on 0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:58.400 Richardson for the inaccurate throws that make all these reels 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:00.960 on social media. I think there's actually a lot of 0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:03.839 examples on tape of him getting through the progression and 0:12:03.880 --> 0:12:07.480 making anticipatory throws. But Travis, the numbers are the numbers. 0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:08.760 Why they so bad? 0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:12.200 I think he just is flat out missing sometimes, and 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:13.840 I think that's been the way to get him to 0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:16.360 do so. I do not think he's got the best 0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:19.800 finesse type of arm. Again, like it's the motion is 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:23.560 not consistent. It reminds me I had someone at a 0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:27.200 golf course last summer like fix my chipping, and it 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:29.960 wasn't bad. I just was inconsistent where he was like, 0:12:30.080 --> 0:12:32.360 you're too short on your back swing, even on those 0:12:32.400 --> 0:12:34.080 short chips. If you make it a little bit longer 0:12:34.280 --> 0:12:36.440 and make the backswing as much as the fall through, 0:12:36.640 --> 0:12:39.240 you won't have to like jerk it back down bunk. 0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.880 But if you just make it more smooth that way, 0:12:42.120 --> 0:12:44.800 you'll have the same ball strike and you'll finish better, 0:12:44.800 --> 0:12:46.840 and you'll get better contact and have a better stroke. 0:12:47.040 --> 0:12:49.120 On your chipping games. Same thing when it comes to 0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:51.520 layering of football, Like if you're quick at the top 0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:53.120 of your release and then it's up, you know you 0:12:53.200 --> 0:12:54.880 have to speed up through the top of the process. 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:58.120 The ball's gonna wane on you and go in different directions. 0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:02.320 So teams have blitzed Richardson just twelve times on his 0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:05.920 eighty seven dropbacks. It's fourteen percent. But he's completed one 0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:09.320 pass for two yards and thrown two picks on the 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:12.079 ten throws. In those twelve drop backs, he got sacked 0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:15.199 twice or scrambled twice, I should say. And PFF has 0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:20.720 him with a third turnover with a sorry, a fourth 0:13:20.920 --> 0:13:23.079 turnover worthy play in that grouping, which gives him a 0:13:23.120 --> 0:13:26.360 twenty five percent turnover worthy play rate. And while he 0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:30.040 has four picks when not blitzed, that's four turnover worthy 0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:32.720 plays out of seventy five dropbacks, just five percent. So 0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:37.240 his turnover worthy play rate increases times five when you 0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:40.920 blitz him. Go force the issue, especially when your offense 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:43.880 is playing like Miami's offense. He does have two scrambles 0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:45.640 in at three point three to three time to throw 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:47.959 in those dropbacks takes them forever to see things and 0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:49.880 play it out. And one of those scrambles went for 0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:51.960 a first down, the other was for no gain. And 0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:54.520 he has not yet been sacked when he's when he's 0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:57.000 been blitzed. So that's why I do think you blitz him. 0:13:57.000 --> 0:14:01.160 It creates it creates errors. And now all that said, 0:14:01.360 --> 0:14:04.160 you don't usually blitz to sack him again zero sacks, 0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:06.400 but the four sacks he has taken are when he's 0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:08.920 not being blitzed, and that's when you get good coverage 0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:11.640 and the feet stop, and that's when you can get 0:14:11.679 --> 0:14:14.679 all kinds of wonky throws. But I will caution beating 0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:17.200 this Colts offensive line with just four is going to 0:14:17.240 --> 0:14:20.480 be a tall task for posterity. Flacco had been blitzed 0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:22.720 thirty percent of his drop backs and he's completely just 0:14:22.760 --> 0:14:25.520 fifty three percent of those with a four point three YPA. 0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:27.880 But two touchdowns and no picks. Not great, but that's 0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:30.160 way better than Richardson. And I put this in here 0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:32.640 because you're likely going to see a backup rookie center 0:14:32.840 --> 0:14:35.880 in Tanner Borderlini and with a quarterback that has limited 0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:39.120 reps as a pro and collegiate, So focusing that protection 0:14:39.200 --> 0:14:42.360 scheme or trying to get after it can really generate 0:14:42.400 --> 0:14:44.720 some splash plays for your defense, which I think is 0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:47.240 exactly what you need to win this game without to 0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:50.000 a tongue by Low once again. So starting right guard, 0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:52.120 will Freeze is on the injury reserve. Ryan Kelly the 0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:53.960 center might play. I tend to think that he won't. 0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:57.320 Braden Smith and Bernard Raymond are maybe the best tackle 0:14:57.360 --> 0:14:59.320 tannem and football right now off the edge, and then 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:01.480 Quenton Nelson could be the best left guard in football. 0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:04.160 So with those tackles and absent JP and Chubb and 0:15:04.200 --> 0:15:06.920 Cam Good and Shaq Bartt and YadA, YadA, YadA, YadA, Galli, 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:09.280 that's why I think you have to play rush contame. 0:15:09.440 --> 0:15:10.760 You're not gonna get a lot of one on one 0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:12.760 wins with you know, Ogbah and Chop and whoever else 0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:15.840 is out there. Don't and Tyas Bowser, don't let fifteen 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:19.240 get outside of you and go after Tanner, Bordolini and 0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:22.480 Dalton Tucker the backup guard and for Freeze and really 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:26.120 force the issue on Richardson from the pocket. Let's go 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:27.960 ahead and take our first break right there, come back 0:15:27.960 --> 0:15:30.120 and do big keys two and three for the Colts offense. 0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:32.480 We'll also do the Colts defense after that as well. 0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:35.760 All that next Draft Time podcast, your host Travis Wingfield, 0:15:35.800 --> 0:15:42.200 brought to you by Automation Dolphin's defensive Keys to beat 0:15:42.280 --> 0:15:45.320 the Colts on Sunday in Indianapolis is going to be 0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:48.480 heavily focused on Anthony Richardson and point number one is 0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:50.240 to blitz him. Point number two is to keep him 0:15:50.240 --> 0:15:52.240 in the pocket. To kind of carry this over here 0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:54.600 and continue the theme here, I do think you can 0:15:54.600 --> 0:15:57.680 find your pressure inside because of those backups I mentioned, 0:15:57.680 --> 0:16:01.400 but also because of the skills of ninety two, ninety three, eleven, 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:04.360 and twenty That of course is Seiler, Campbell, Long and 0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:06.520 Brooks in the middle, and that's where I see your 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:09.680 impact type of players or plays to shut down this offense. 0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:12.240 We know we love to flood those a gaps off 0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:14.960 the success of both Seiler and Campbell inside, and I 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:16.920 sort of love the idea of sending a backer with 0:16:17.000 --> 0:16:20.440 regularity like I would consistently whether it's Chopp looping inside 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:24.320 or Jordan Brooks or David Long, I just continuously put 0:16:24.360 --> 0:16:26.840 pressure on the interior and force him to just move 0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:28.960 side to side and wiggle because I want him to 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:32.320 feel like he has to escape, but also stay within 0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:34.080 the pocket, if that makes sense, Like force him off 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:36.320 the spot within the pocket. And you can do that 0:16:36.320 --> 0:16:39.160 by winning your interior matchups and forcing the issue by 0:16:39.160 --> 0:16:41.760 bringing more rushers inside. And I continue to harp on this, 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:44.800 do just play rush contain off the perimeter the entire game, 0:16:45.000 --> 0:16:47.040 and don't let him have escape lanes. I think if 0:16:47.080 --> 0:16:49.120 you just let him throw from the pocket, you can 0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:52.480 capitalize on the opportunities that have been provided by him. 0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:56.040 He's played eleven career games, has eleven turnover worthy throws 0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:58.280 and six fumbles, so he puts the ball in harm's 0:16:58.320 --> 0:17:00.640 way one and a half times per game in his career. 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:02.160 You got to capitalize on those. 0:17:02.200 --> 0:17:04.280 And that doesn't count the fact that he's missed like 0:17:04.400 --> 0:17:06.600 the majority of three full games. So I would say 0:17:06.600 --> 0:17:10.119 it's more like eight career games with you know, seventeen 0:17:10.800 --> 0:17:13.720 turnover type of like, it's almost it's more like two 0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:16.359 per game. Really, you gotta capitalize on those. And if 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:18.720 you look at his passing splits, it's it's pretty jarring. 0:17:18.760 --> 0:17:22.240 He's five of fourteen on passes twenty or more yards 0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:25.359 down the field. He's nine for twenty in the intermediate game, 0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:28.160 and of those fourteen completions, nine of those came when 0:17:28.160 --> 0:17:31.920 he was outside the pocket, and per nfl jesus Gsis, 0:17:32.119 --> 0:17:35.800 that's five completions beyond ten yards from inside the pocket 0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:39.199 and five of fourteen of those nine misses, six of 0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:42.080 those passes were deemed off target. So he is scattershot 0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:46.000 when you get him kind of you know, in the pocket, 0:17:46.040 --> 0:17:47.840 but also like on the move. That makes sense again, 0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:50.280 I think you get the point here, hemmiman. Make him 0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:53.600 play from with instructure and hope that his inconsistencies continue 0:17:53.800 --> 0:17:56.400 and you capitalize with the takeaways, and you can accomplish 0:17:56.480 --> 0:17:58.880 that in one other way, which is our third big key, 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:02.480 force him to get his information after the snap. I 0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:05.359 don't want to make the entire section about Richard sim 0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:07.000 but I kind of feel like this game hinges on 0:18:07.040 --> 0:18:10.240 how he performs, and the Dolphins have some control over that. 0:18:10.359 --> 0:18:13.320 Right now, Quarterbacks can get hot and they can play 0:18:13.359 --> 0:18:15.119 the level where you have to tip your cap and 0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:16.800 say you beat us today, sir, thank you very much. 0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:20.520 May have another or maybe it's an ordinary Richardson day 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:22.719 where he doesn't play that well and you force him 0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:24.760 into two more mistakes than he usually does, and you 0:18:24.800 --> 0:18:27.199 capitalize on those and you get a big takeaway and 0:18:27.280 --> 0:18:29.640 a big shutdown of this Colts offense, and you get 0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:31.840 a big win. This is actually more of a compliment 0:18:31.840 --> 0:18:33.639 than it sounds like. But I think he's like on 0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:36.840 his way to being a good processor. He's clearly not 0:18:36.920 --> 0:18:39.000 there yet. And again, I feel like a lot of 0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:42.760 his anticipatory throws come when he's broken contained outside the pocket. 0:18:42.880 --> 0:18:45.119
