I am your host, Travis 0:00:19.079 --> 0:00:22.840 Wingfield And on today's show, a tough, tough loss up 0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:26.200 in Baltimore, the Dolphins fall to the Ravens blowout fifty 0:00:26.280 --> 0:00:28.760 six to nineteen. We'll talk about the key moments, the 0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:31.120 five takeaways we'll hear from head coach Mike McDaniel and 0:00:31.200 --> 0:00:34.239 quarterback to a Tongue Bailoa from the Baptist Health Studios 0:00:34.280 --> 0:00:37.480 inside the Baptist Health Training Complex. This is the Drive 0:00:37.560 --> 0:00:43.519 Time Podcast Miami Dolphins. Before we get into any of 0:00:43.560 --> 0:00:45.480 the stats from the game, let's go ahead and start 0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:48.400 with Mike McDaniel, who when asked about the Bradley Chubb 0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:51.599 injury and gave a very insightful answer and response to 0:00:51.640 --> 0:00:53.680 the decision to have Bradley Chubb in the game at 0:00:53.680 --> 0:00:55.319 that time and the desire for guys to be able 0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:57.560 to get the reps that they wanted lay all the 0:00:57.560 --> 0:00:59.400 guys that were in the game, wanted to be in 0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:01.720 the game to hoefully finish out with a better taste 0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:04.240 in their mouth. As coach McDaniel described it. Didn't want 0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:06.280 to play the whole audio for you guys, but this 0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:09.399 is the back part of his answer talking about the 0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:12.520 Bradley Chubb injury, and it just kind of, I guess 0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:14.800 thirty thousand foot view right now of the football team 0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:17.360 and the focus where it already is the players. 0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:22.240 Uh didn't see the result of the game looking at 0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:27.600 looking the way it did, and you know they're they 0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:30.640 were hungry to get right and it didn't work out 0:01:30.640 --> 0:01:31.000 for us. 0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:35.160 But you know, at the same time, it's it's not 0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:40.920 you have to you have to you know it. Right now, 0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:41.360 a lot of. 0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:45.200 Guys are hurting, as they should be. They've they've invested 0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:51.560 a unbelievable amount into this season. But the biggest thing 0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:55.720 is that with the locker room like this under uh, 0:01:55.840 --> 0:02:00.240 with with those failed expectations, I know, I know they're 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:04.360 going to grow closer, not further apart. And that's important 0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:07.800 in this this part of the year because you know, 0:02:07.840 --> 0:02:11.680 we'll have a division crown to play for next week 0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:15.400 and that's what we'll have to take everything that we've 0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:20.320 learned good, bad, and indifferent and apply it next week, 0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:24.040 because it's a you know, if we would have said 0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:30.000 that after week four or whatever, if that we you know, 0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:33.760 we're gonna play this this Buffalo team again and it 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:35.960 will be the last game of the season and it'll 0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:39.959 be for the the division crown. I think everyone would 0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:43.320 have accepted that. So there's there's some perspective that that 0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:46.360 the you know I talked to the team about and 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:51.520 their their eyes were laser focused and they will be 0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:56.920 eager to uh wash away this past game. And the 0:02:56.960 --> 0:02:58.520 only way you can do that is prepare for the 0:02:58.560 --> 0:02:58.959 next one. 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:01.959 So we're gonna get into all of the what's ahead 0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:04.360 next week, what has to happen, and why the sky 0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:06.440 hasn't completely fallen. But I will give you guys a 0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:10.120 bit of a spoiler in that regard. I'm gonna raise 0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:12.680 some things that have concerned me that now have kind 0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:14.120 of come to a head here in week seventeen. 0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:15.320 We'll talk about that in the podcast. 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:17.720 Let's go ahead, though, as we do every single Sunday 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:20.080 night on the Recap show break down the Dolphins of 0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:24.040 Averis statistics perspective, and it was even early I tweeted 0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:26.280 out and probably going to wind up on freezing cold 0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:28.240 takes the days I thought these are the two best 0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:30.800 teams in the AFC by a pretty wide margin, and 0:03:30.840 --> 0:03:32.840 that was when the score was fourteen to ten, with 0:03:32.960 --> 0:03:36.160 Miami having a twenty yard at advantage, a five play advantage, 0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:39.360 and almost identical time on possession, because Miami in these 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:42.520 games against these teams have gone toe to toe for 0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:45.640 the most part, and then there's like two eight minute 0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:48.800 spans against Buffalo and against the Ravens where things didn't 0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:51.920 go their way and that reduce or produces i should say, 0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:55.280 completely lop sided scores that make it come away from 0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:57.680 these games with a very very sour taste in your mouth. 0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:01.680 Dolphins fans are right to feel very i mean betrayed 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:04.840 by your expectations, but just ultimately let down by the 0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:07.960 Dolphins inability to compete in a game like this with 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:14.360 such such magnitude, such really high level achievement on the 0:04:14.400 --> 0:04:16.159 line for what you could have been this season if 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:18.000 you had won this game, and of course next season 0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:20.840 and all the stuff that is more important to achieve 0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:24.040 is still there. But to put this showing out in 0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:27.040 that fashion on that stage with everyone talking about how 0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:28.960 fun this game was and Miami's chance to go in 0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:32.159 there and upset the Ravens very disappointing, and you are 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:35.000 one hundred percent justified and feeling like crap on your 0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:36.800 New Year's Eve and into New Year's DAGs you hear 0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:39.000 this podcast, actually just want to go ahead and put 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:40.679 that out there. Let's go ahead and get over these stats. 0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:43.120 Twenty four to twenty in the first downs, the Ravens 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:45.880 were only four to seven on third down because quite frankly, 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:49.080 they just never really had to deal with them. Miami 0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:51.599 was six for fifteen, which was competitive for a long time. 0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.599 Two for four on fourth was Miami Baltimore one for one. 0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:56.400 That one towards the end of the half where they 0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:59.599 get seven instead of potential long Justin Tuck field goal. 0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:02.560 At ten, they outgained Miami four ninety one to three 0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:06.760 seventy five. They get let's see one turnover to Miami's three. 0:05:06.960 --> 0:05:09.680 Dolphins got sacked three times. Lamar got sacked just one time. 0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:10.160 In the game. 0:05:10.360 --> 0:05:12.800 They had seven penalties, We had five, and they had 0:05:12.839 --> 0:05:15.359 the ball for thirty minutes twenty three seconds to Miami 0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:17.760 had the ball for just you know what, twenty three 0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:20.160 seconds short of thirty. On their own side, they had 0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:22.680 more passing three thirty one two twenty one and just 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:25.360 a bit more rushing one sixty to one fifty four. 0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:26.880 So I mentioned the way the game started off, and 0:05:26.920 --> 0:05:29.200 I thought Miami had a fantastic plan, and with the 0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:31.760 Ravens having their injuries of their own, thought that Miami 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:33.320 was gonna find a way to march up and down 0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:35.800 the field and have an MVP type of performance from 0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:38.599 Tua and Tyreek and just score forty points and go 0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:40.880 win this thing. Because they go eight plays seventy five 0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:44.200 yards eight Chan twenty five yard opening screen Tyreek with 0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:46.200 a tough catch on the back shoulder for twelve yards. 0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:48.880 Ingle gets a little play action rollout for eighteen from Tua. 0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:51.520 We're cooking eight Chan twelve yards, puts up a first 0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:53.520 and goal, and then we get a one yard run 0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:56.200 a second down in completion, and then Tuoa threads the 0:05:56.240 --> 0:05:59.320 needle on an absolute laser into Cedric Wilson, who ran 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:02.120 a fantastic sick route with a little shake to the outside, 0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:04.800 bend that thing back inside right behind the hook linebacker, 0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:06.479 right in front of the coverage safety. 0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:08.400 And I told Jus and saith this. 0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:11.280 I thought Tua was a fraction of a hair, not 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.719 even a full hair, a fraction of a hair late, 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:16.479 and that's why there was contested, a contested catch rather 0:06:16.480 --> 0:06:19.360 than just a touchdown catch than a collision. But either way, 0:06:19.920 --> 0:06:21.720 great play by Cedric to hang on to that thing. 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:24.039 Great job by Tua to widen the hook and pump 0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:26.360 that thing in there. And we're cooking a third down 0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:29.920 conversion in low in mid red zone. That's like MVP stuff, right, 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:33.320 But then Baltimore gets it and already third and sixteen 0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:36.159 after an offensive pass interference after they dropped a deep 0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:38.600 shot down the field to a wide open Rashaan Bateman 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:41.400 against xaviing Howard who got beat badly on the play. 0:06:41.960 --> 0:06:44.000 You're thinking, third and sixteen, ball gonna come right back. 0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:45.599 I gonna go score again. This is gonna be the 0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:48.560 Dolphins day, except it wasn't at all, because they get 0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:50.679 up a first down on a screen pass. Open field 0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:52.520 tackling an issue. We'll hear that from head coach Mike 0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:54.880 McDaniel here in just a second. And then it's bang, 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:58.160 bang bang, wide open spaces, guys running clean Flowers goes 0:06:58.200 --> 0:07:00.000 twenty five yards in a corner ut around a show 0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:04.000 on Elliott Gus Edwards, then Bateman for fourteen. Lamar just 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:05.960 beats the Bliss with a quick shot like Lamar was 0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:08.160 on his absolute stuff in this game. Then they get 0:07:08.160 --> 0:07:09.920 the wheel route and they got caught in the offensive 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:12.240 PAS interference, only this time they hit it as Duke 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.400 Riley tries to work under the cut under the natural 0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:16.920 rub and it's an easy touchdown. Just the offense looked, 0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:19.960 or the defense rather looked so out of sorts. Receivers 0:07:20.040 --> 0:07:23.280 wide open, the ball right on time, no pressure on Lamar. 0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.840 Just an absolute regression from what we've seen from the 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:29.679 Dolphins defense on that drive, and it will continue throughout 0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:32.440 the day. But the Dolphins offense, like that Buffalo game, 0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:35.280 takes the football right back in marches down the field 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:38.840 six place sixty five yards. You get a eighteen yard capital, 0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:42.560 a anticipation strike as jtos Holden would say, from tyreek 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:44.800 or from two of the Tyreek rather. Then ah Chan 0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:48.080 cruises for a forty five yard run after really fantastic 0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:51.400 edges by Julian Hill and Durham Smyth and Cedric Wilson 0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:54.120 gets a crackback and Craig Craft is downfield leading a 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:54.560 big block. 0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:55.800 Okay, here we go. 0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:57.640 This is the offense that we know we have against 0:07:57.680 --> 0:08:00.560 a banged up Ravens defense. Let's go score forty points right. 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:02.800 Then we get a loss and a short gain on 0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:06.240 to eight chan and then Tyreek has another great ball 0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:08.520 from Tua, little anticipation, popped to the back of the 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:11.560 end zone and it's a room service catch. Tyreek's made 0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:14.120 this catch three thousand times this year in practice on 0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:16.920 air off the jugs machine can't squeeze, it goes out 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:17.800 the back of the end zone. 0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:18.680 Kick a field goal. 0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:20.560 Took a ten to seven lead, and then you get 0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:23.400 a stop four play seventeen yard drive, a stop where 0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:25.880 Zach Seeler has an awesome rep. There's a great coverage 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:29.080 sack where they just basically rush their lanes stay in 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:31.000 good position. I think it was Steeler who got the sack, 0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:34.400 who walked the guard back for the ultimate tackle of 0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:38.200 Lamar Jackson. But good rushing, integrity, good coverage downfield. Lamar 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:40.720 has to scramble on third and twenty five and you 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:43.000 get him off the field. But then Miami's offense gets 0:08:43.000 --> 0:08:45.480 it back and they punt it after what I thought 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:47.920 was the first instance of the Ravens getting Tua off 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:50.200 of his rhythm after he converts a third and five 0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:52.480 for twenty yards to Durham Smythe who, by the way, 0:08:52.679 --> 0:08:54.719 do we have a new seambuster? And durham Smyth like 0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:56.440 this guy's catching all kinds of passes in that part 0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:58.480 of the field and the way he blocks on the edge. 0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:00.840 Glad we got that guy locked up here, because he 0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:03.000 looks pretty impressive the last few weeks in this offense. 0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:05.400 But then they got pressure on two where I thought 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:08.320 his feet kind of got ugly where when they pressured 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:09.800 him when he was in the middle of his drop. 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:13.240 Sometimes he's very good about interrupting that drop and going 0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:15.600 and making a play elsewhere, but sometimes I feel like 0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:17.040 the feet get a little bit clunky, and they did 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:18.920 right here, and he takes a sack and then he 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:20.160 throws a ball to Cedric Wilson. 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:21.120 They're not on the same page. 0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:24.079 Ball a little bit inside Cedric's inside outside of that ball, 0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:26.800 and it almost gets picked, but eventually just a Dolphins punt. 0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:30.000 But still it's ten to seven. You feel good about it, right, 0:09:30.000 --> 0:09:32.000 But then the Ravens march eighty nine yards on ten 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:34.640 plays and it was almost exclusively through the running game. 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:36.960 Zack Stealler got banged up on this drive and was 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:39.280 kind of dragging his arm alongside him, but he comes 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:40.960 back into the game and continue to make plays the 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:43.000 rest of the day, just an absolute warrior instead of 0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:45.600 a football player that he is. But they went after 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:47.880 a Seler went down three runs twenty four yards a 0:09:47.920 --> 0:09:50.320 fourteen yard completion in there as well. You get a 0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:52.679 great player from Zieler and Seeler and Elliott against the 0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:55.160 screen looks like it's wide open, but then Odell Beckham 0:09:55.160 --> 0:09:57.680 makes that fantastic catch in the sideline and I thought 0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:00.000 his hand shifts it off the football, but he ultimately 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:01.920 they controlled it, so I get why it's upheld like 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.080 that first and goal of the three run in for 0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:06.640 a touchdown right after that fourteen to ten, but in 0:10:06.679 --> 0:10:09.560 Miami's offense gets the ball back once again and marches 0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:12.679 down the field forty nine yards on eleven plays. They 0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:14.920 ultimately wind up having to kick a field goal because 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:17.559 they bogged down. But you continue to get more production, 0:10:17.640 --> 0:10:21.600 including another third down conversion from Tua to Durham Smyth 0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:24.080 with a great throw on a little high low concept 0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.640 that kind of caught the defense flat footed and they 0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:27.839 pick up another third lung. 0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:29.200 That's why I'm gonna get to this. 0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:31.840 But I had Tua in my takeaways originally as a 0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:35.400 potential like Tua quote unquote trying to be funny legacy 0:10:35.400 --> 0:10:37.680 game because he was playing so well in these such 0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:40.480 high leverage positions and put in Miami in positions to 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:41.920 go win a football game. But then they kicked the 0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:43.559 ball back off to the Ravens in a fourteen to 0:10:43.640 --> 0:10:46.320 thirteen game, and it's a one play, seventy five yard 0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:49.400 touchdown because we get caught on the exact same exit 0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:51.199 motion whatever you want to call that cheap motion, I 0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:53.199 don't know what it is, where Tyreek starts in and 0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:56.560 runs out into his pattern. They run that play and 0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:59.640 we bust it. Like Eli Apple and Deshaun Elliott not 0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:02.120 in the same page. There, it's a walk in room 0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:05.920 service touchdown for seventy five yards to their fantastic rookies 0:11:05.920 --> 0:11:08.559 A Flowers. That's twenty one thirteen. All right, You're still 0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:11.040 not in bad shape, right because there's two fifty eight 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:13.320 to play in the first half and you have a 0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:16.480 red hot offense that's playing really well. This whole season 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:18.640 and this game, and you march it right down the 0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:21.360 field once again four yards or fifteen yards rather to 0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:24.440 von eh Chan seventeen to durham smythe again right down 0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:26.960 the seam. But then as the clock hits the two 0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:28.760 minute mark, I thought they were gonna blow it dead 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:30.760 because it did hit the two minute warning, But they 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:32.679 also get that same little grace that you get on 0:11:32.720 --> 0:11:34.960 a delay of game call, right which I think is 0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:37.560 probably what happened there. But Tua tries to force a 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:41.800 shot in here in between two in between two Ravens defenders, 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:44.920 and it winds up being a fantastic one handed pick 0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:47.080 by Patrick Queen. And that was kind of the story 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:49.000 of the day at this point going forward, was the 0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:53.120 Ravens linebackers' ability to get depth and interrupt the passing 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:55.000 game and then a running game that was either kind 0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:57.280 of explosive player short gain and nothing at all. And 0:11:57.280 --> 0:11:58.840 that's kind of where they took over in this play 0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:01.720 right here, Tua just doesn't just kind of stares onto 0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:04.400 this one play and throws a bad ball into a 0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:07.439 bad spot where he didn't use any type of manipulation, 0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:09.719 and it results in a big, big pick and the 0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:13.560 Ravens wind up going four plays thirty eight drive thirty eight. 0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:14.880 Yards to score a touchdown. 0:12:14.920 --> 0:12:17.600 On the other side because of a fourth and seven 0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:20.400 conversion where we get a big third down pass breakup 0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:23.240 from Eli Apple and another pressure by Chub and David 0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:25.520 Long that winds up forcing a long third and seven. 0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:27.720 They missed that third and seven, and on the fourth 0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:30.360 and seven, Jevon Holland slips and falls to the turf 0:12:30.400 --> 0:12:33.000 on Isaiah Likely who and then turn makes his own 0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:35.880 one handed catch and beats our man coverage and goes 0:12:35.960 --> 0:12:37.880 right down the field for a thirty six yard touchdown. 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:39.600 So you had two plays for two yards and that 0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:41.600 drive to start, or rather three plays for two yards, 0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:43.640 and then you get thirty six on the back end 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:46.600 for a touchdown from Lamar Jackson to Isaiah Likely. So 0:12:46.720 --> 0:12:51.200 just these big moments, not making the play us dropping 0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:52.720 a touchdown in the back of the end zone, then 0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:55.520 making two one handed catches to flip the game from 0:12:55.520 --> 0:12:58.840 possibly twenty one to sixteen, maybe even twenty one to twenty, 0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:01.920 or even twenty one to thirteen. Flipping it from that 0:13:02.040 --> 0:13:05.559 to twenty eight to thirteen. It's almost almost good night. 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:07.319 Nurse it puts you in a position where you can 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:09.480 make it so on the other side of the two 0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:12.240 minute warnings. So just tough looks, I mean two of 0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:14.600 a mistake. Javon Holland gets beat on that play. Tyreek 0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:17.440 kill a mistake, some offensive line protection issues where they 0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:20.920 get through the sack. Just little a busted coverage leads 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:24.000 to a big touchdown. Little mistakes against teams like this 0:13:24.080 --> 0:13:25.760 is how this will wind up going. And that's to 0:13:25.800 --> 0:13:27.600 the Dolphins have been this year. That's who they've proven 0:13:27.600 --> 0:13:29.839 to be this year. Seventeen weeks into the season, Miami 0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:32.760 gets the ball back six plays, thirteen yards. They called 0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:36.120 the offensive pass interference on Cedric Wilson, which doesn't matter now, 0:13:36.240 --> 0:13:37.640 never would have made a difference in the game, But 0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:39.560 that was a call that I can't fathom. He kind 0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:41.120 of like just ran by the guy and got called 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:44.720 OPI for it. You wind up not scoring. The Ravens 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:46.200 get it back, take it to end of the half 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:48.839 and it's twenty eight to thirteen and you're thinking, Okay, 0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:50.599 get a stop, get a ball back, go score, and 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:51.040 you're right. 0:13:50.960 --> 0:13:51.520 Back in the game. 0:13:52.160 --> 0:13:54.839 Didn't go that way at all, because the Ravens take 0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:57.600 a big kickoff return. So now we've introduced a third 0:13:57.640 --> 0:13:59.920 phase that gets beat in this game. The special team 0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:02.920 into this equation and all they needs three plays and 0:14:03.000 --> 0:14:05.000 sixteen yards to go score a touchdown because of a 0:14:05.080 --> 0:14:07.920 huge kick return, two chunk gains, and then once again 0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:11.240 they bust not the busted coverage, but the front side 0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:13.720 blocker on play action leaks to the backside of the 0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:15.719 formation and no one goes with him. It happened three 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:18.440 times in this game for scores, so it happens again here. 0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:20.560 It was one of six touchdown passes in the game 0:14:20.560 --> 0:14:23.720 for the Ravens, five for Lamar Jackson, one for Tyler Huntley. 0:14:23.880 --> 0:14:26.000 Let's go ahead and close up this first segment the 0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:28.560 same way we started it with. Coach McDaniel explained the 0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:31.080 six passing touchdowns of the Ravens and how the defense 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:31.840 can get that fixed. 0:14:31.960 --> 0:14:36.600 Pride ourselves on. You know, if you're gonna score, you're 0:14:36.600 --> 0:14:40.920 gonna have to earn it. And what I mean by 0:14:40.960 --> 0:14:46.400 that is, you know, we haven't had many run in 0:14:46.560 --> 0:14:50.640 touchdowns or that many run in touchdowns as we had 0:14:50.680 --> 0:14:55.200 this game, which is the function of tackling a it's 0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:59.640 a you know, it's to their credit. I think they 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:04.920 had a good game plan and got their players that 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:09.520 are pretty good in space. In space, however, you know, 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:14.360 I'm confident saying before watching the film that you know, 0:15:14.400 --> 0:15:18.640 we're gonna be very very We're not gonna be happy 0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:21.440 with the way that we we tackled in an open space. 0:15:21.520 --> 0:15:23.360 So we're got to get down to the bottom of that, 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:27.760 which you know, I'm very confident that we will. And 0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:31.440 you know, we have a lot of talent, talented, prideful, 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:38.920 invested players that that know that's not the that's not 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:46.560 what they've created with the Dolphins this season, and will 0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:50.960 be very, very highly motivated to get that stuff corrected 0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:53.520 in a short amount of time. And that's what it 0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:57.400 takes to get get something like that corrected, is high 0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:00.520 motivation because you don't have that much time to do it. 0:16:00.720 --> 0:16:03.120 Let's go ahead and take our halftime break right there 0:16:03.200 --> 0:16:05.520 after the opening drive of the second half. It's thirty 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:07.600 five to thirteen Ravens. We'll come back and wrap up 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:09.800 the game as well as the five big picture takeaways 0:16:09.800 --> 0:16:10.360 and hear more. 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:11.240 From two A Tongue Bai Lowa. 0:16:11.320 --> 0:16:14.280 That's all next Drift Time podcast, your host Travis Wingfield 0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:19.080 brought to you by Auto Nation left off the first 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:21.280 half of the Drift Time podcast, or the first segment, 0:16:21.320 --> 0:16:25.000 I should say, with a thirty five to thirteen Ravens advantage, 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:27.000 Miami gets the football back and goes four plays and 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:29.480 punts after an opening run from Devon h Chan where 0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:32.600 Miami's found these chunk gains man they get big gains 0:16:32.880 --> 0:16:35.000 on first down to open the drive and puts himself 0:16:35.120 --> 0:16:37.200 just a couple of first downs away from field goal range. 0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:39.360 It's been cool to see, but then you go backwards, 0:16:39.520 --> 0:16:41.400 a short run, a sack and a false start makes 0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:43.600 it third and sixteen, check it down, punt the ball away, 0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:47.200 and then you're thinking one more score here. It's probably Curtains, 0:16:47.440 --> 0:16:49.360 but you don't get that. You get a hustle play 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:50.840 from the guy that we talked about who took an 0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:52.920 injury in the first quarter. In Zach Sealer, they go 0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:55.200 five plays thirty yards, you force a third and ten 0:16:55.520 --> 0:16:57.560 and they get a wide open another one of these 0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:01.040 coverages like man coverage mesh where they just rub us 0:17:01.040 --> 0:17:02.280 in the middle of the field and get a guy 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:05.119 running free up the sideline for a big game. But 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.720 right after that play, Zach Seeler on first down stays 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:10.760 with a play that gets out ahead of him. He 0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:13.000 chases it down from the back and knocks the football 0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:15.480 out of the ball carrier's hands, and Javon Holland comes 0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:18.440 up and recovers, and you're thinking, hey, we came back 0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:21.000 on this team down three touchdowns last year, Let's do 0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:23.399 that again. Very first play, Tua gets picked off. He 0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:26.240 tried a window that was sort of there, but Patrick 0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:29.560 Queen got really good depth on that second on that drop, 0:17:29.600 --> 0:17:31.480 and you can in that situation because the run game 0:17:31.520 --> 0:17:33.880 down by that much, probably not gonna happen too much. 0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:37.560 And I took this out of the takeaways in the 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:40.000 fourth quarter because of the shape of the game, but 0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:41.879 I did have a two A takeaway. They'll just go 0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:44.359 ahead and talk about here briefly, and I jokingly call 0:17:44.440 --> 0:17:46.520 it the two A legacy game takeaway, like trying to 0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:49.320 be funny about it because Early, because I have downplayed 0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:50.920 the idea of a twenty five year old having a 0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:53.199 legacy game, right, it's kind of silly in practice, But 0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:56.159 Early I thought he was defining himself in a pretty 0:17:56.160 --> 0:17:58.639 cool way where when things would get wonky, he was 0:17:58.720 --> 0:18:01.280 kind of having solved those third down plays he was 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:03.639 thinking quickly, getting the ball out, putting it on target, 0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:06.320 some big touchdowns on third down, finding Durham for chunks, 0:18:06.320 --> 0:18:08.920
