0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:19.480
<v Speaker 1>but I don't get to see him. I used to

0:00:19.480 --> 0:00:21.560
<v Speaker 1>see him wandering around the field before the games every

0:00:21.600 --> 0:00:24.200
<v Speaker 1>now and then, Yeah Joe. I saw him do a

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:26.759
<v Speaker 1>cup of Joe, but then after that, I haven't seen

0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:30.560
<v Speaker 1>him since. Yeah he is, Yeah, he's He's like, I

0:00:30.600 --> 0:00:32.479
<v Speaker 1>don't know what it is. I don't know what it is.

0:00:33.640 --> 0:00:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Show Joe wouldn't. He's always been a no show Joe.

0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:38.760
<v Speaker 1>But but usually when there's a paycheck somewhere, he's a

0:00:38.760 --> 0:00:44.280
<v Speaker 1>show Joe. You can guarantee one thing about Joe. You know,

0:00:44.320 --> 0:00:46.040
<v Speaker 1>I tell you that I tell a story all the time.

0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:48.120
<v Speaker 1>I said, you know, Joe, Joe is one of those

0:00:48.120 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 1>guys that is notorious for not returning phone calls, not

0:00:53.479 --> 0:00:55.560
<v Speaker 1>returning forward. You will want to text me, text me,

0:00:55.840 --> 0:00:58.160
<v Speaker 1>So he texted me, don't return to tech nothing. So

0:00:58.200 --> 0:00:59.560
<v Speaker 1>it's a couple of years ago and I'm trying to

0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:00.920
<v Speaker 1>get ahold him you know what, I'm good. Just so

0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:04.759
<v Speaker 1>I said that. I called him. I said, Joe, you know, Joey,

0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:06.640
<v Speaker 1>give me a call back. Doesn't call him. I call back.

0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Five minutes, I said, Joe, give me a call back.

0:01:08.920 --> 0:01:10.960
<v Speaker 1>I said, I got I got someone. I got someone

0:01:10.959 --> 0:01:14.720
<v Speaker 1>who wants to pay five thousand dollars. I'm back thirty

0:01:14.760 --> 0:01:17.119
<v Speaker 1>seconds later. But hey, what's up? I said, I ain't

0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:20.080
<v Speaker 1>got shipped for you. I just needed to talk to you.

0:01:21.680 --> 0:01:25.280
<v Speaker 1>That's perfect, that's it. That's what the hook. That's the hook. Yeah.

0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 1>So you know, but anyway, we'll see carry on because

0:01:29.880 --> 0:01:31.760
<v Speaker 1>because I know one thing, I know, I talked. I

0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:34.360
<v Speaker 1>did talk to him last week. He said, thank god

0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:37.720
<v Speaker 1>for tuning in radio, I Tunes, Miami Dolphins app, Dolphins

0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:39.640
<v Speaker 1>dot com, because I have plenty of ways to get

0:01:39.680 --> 0:01:42.039
<v Speaker 1>to listen to it. I said, Joe, we don't want

0:01:42.040 --> 0:01:43.840
<v Speaker 1>you to listen to it. I want you to bring

0:01:43.880 --> 0:01:46.520
<v Speaker 1>your fat ass in here, sit your butt down, and

0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:48.480
<v Speaker 1>be on it a little bit, you know, take a

0:01:48.520 --> 0:01:51.120
<v Speaker 1>little bit of the line. He's still taking money, he's

0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:53.840
<v Speaker 1>still taking in the piece. Yeah, there you go. So

0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:56.240
<v Speaker 1>all right, let's get down. But I've probably been trying

0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:59.240
<v Speaker 1>to avoid John trying to avoid trying to avoid the

0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:03.840
<v Speaker 1>tasking and one, Oh my god, what a you know,

0:02:04.000 --> 0:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>I trying to sing about the game last night, thinking

0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:10.480
<v Speaker 1>about the game today, trying to kind of put put

0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:13.400
<v Speaker 1>it into some kind of framework, and all I can

0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:17.560
<v Speaker 1>just say is it was just a disappointing day from

0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:19.919
<v Speaker 1>start to finish. I don't know about you, John, I

0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:24.600
<v Speaker 1>went into that game with pretty high expectant. I figured Detroit.

0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:26.320
<v Speaker 1>I knew they were a good football team because they've

0:02:26.320 --> 0:02:29.079
<v Speaker 1>beat in Green Bay, they beat in the New England Patriots.

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:32.400
<v Speaker 1>But you also saw him on opening week look horrendous

0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:35.160
<v Speaker 1>in that and so you know they're a good football team.

0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:38.120
<v Speaker 1>But I felt that the Dolphins were a better football team.

0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:40.360
<v Speaker 1>I thought the Dolphins could go out, uh and play

0:02:40.400 --> 0:02:43.440
<v Speaker 1>their game. And and it's funny because I was asked

0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:45.919
<v Speaker 1>earlier last week I was doing a radio show for something.

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:49.080
<v Speaker 1>They said, how would you how would you, uh, how

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:51.919
<v Speaker 1>would you categorize? What would you how would you categorize

0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:54.840
<v Speaker 1>what the Dolphins are as a team in your mind?

0:02:55.320 --> 0:02:56.919
<v Speaker 1>And I said, well, you know what they're. They're They're

0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:59.160
<v Speaker 1>a team that's gonna be built in their defense. Their

0:02:59.200 --> 0:03:00.920
<v Speaker 1>defense is gonna carry him as far as they can go.

0:03:01.240 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Offense is gonna have to contribute and put some points on.

0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:05.480
<v Speaker 1>But I think when you look at the strength of

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:08.440
<v Speaker 1>this team, it's on that defensive side of the football.

0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:10.760
<v Speaker 1>You look at the secondary. You know, when that secondaries

0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:12.079
<v Speaker 1>playing well, and they may be one of the best

0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:17.240
<v Speaker 1>secondaries exactly. Uh, the young linebacker has been made, Keiko's

0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:20.680
<v Speaker 1>been making play the defensive front. So I was expecting

0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:24.800
<v Speaker 1>those guys to really do some damage to to that

0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Detroit Lion football team. But oh my goodness, what we

0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:31.799
<v Speaker 1>two rushing yards to forty eight whatever was There was

0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 1>many I know that, and and it was just John.

0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:39.520
<v Speaker 1>There was never a point in that football game where

0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:42.200
<v Speaker 1>I felt like the Dolphins had it under control, not

0:03:42.320 --> 0:03:46.520
<v Speaker 1>not It never got to the I got close, got

0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:49.280
<v Speaker 1>close when they got you know, within eight towards there

0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:51.600
<v Speaker 1>late in the game, but but that wasn't even They

0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:54.560
<v Speaker 1>still weren't in control. Then they still needed things to happen,

0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:57.680
<v Speaker 1>They needed help, they needed something to happen, and and

0:03:57.720 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 1>it didn't happen. So that's so so when I look

0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 1>out of John, I just I just disappointing. It just

0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:05.960
<v Speaker 1>keeps coming coming to my head about that football game.

0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:08.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's funny bo because I'm sure that coach

0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:11.320
<v Speaker 1>Adam Gates and some of the coaching staff would disagree

0:04:11.360 --> 0:04:15.280
<v Speaker 1>with me. But during pregame, during warm ups, I had

0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:17.760
<v Speaker 1>a feeling, I'm like, you know what, this is another

0:04:17.800 --> 0:04:21.680
<v Speaker 1>team coming off of a by looks fresh. It's not

0:04:21.760 --> 0:04:24.800
<v Speaker 1>as human in the hard rock stadium. They look like

0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 1>to jump around. We look like we're trying to manufacture

0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:32.120
<v Speaker 1>some emotion were we look like we're trying to We're

0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:34.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna go out and go through the motions. The heat's

0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:36.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna take over. We're gonna make a player too, and

0:04:36.600 --> 0:04:38.520
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna find a way to win. That just my

0:04:38.720 --> 0:04:42.479
<v Speaker 1>feeling from the sideline, just watching us warm up. And

0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:45.080
<v Speaker 1>then the game started, and our defense hasn't given up

0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:48.000
<v Speaker 1>an opening drive touchdown all season. We give up the

0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:51.719
<v Speaker 1>opening drive touchdowns. So now we're you know, playing from behind,

0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:56.800
<v Speaker 1>and in that drive, the Dolphins having first, Okay, they're

0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:58.720
<v Speaker 1>backed up, and this is that just our chance to

0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:01.120
<v Speaker 1>get off the field, get back into the rhythm of

0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:04.200
<v Speaker 1>a game. You know, we punt, they punt, Okay, everything's okay.

0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:06.279
<v Speaker 1>Now we're gonna feel each other out. We'll get going

0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:08.480
<v Speaker 1>from here. But it never got to the point, as

0:05:08.480 --> 0:05:11.120
<v Speaker 1>you said, never got to the point where you felt

0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:13.359
<v Speaker 1>like we're over the hump and now we're gonna start

0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:16.239
<v Speaker 1>the role, because as soon as we started making plays,

0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:19.479
<v Speaker 1>it seemed like a guy would go down, or something

0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:21.599
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't break in our way, or we'd miss a tackle.

0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:24.880
<v Speaker 1>You know, the the explosive plays that Detroit was able

0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:27.479
<v Speaker 1>to create, not only on the ground, but you know,

0:05:27.560 --> 0:05:31.360
<v Speaker 1>through the air and throughout that game, we didn't affect

0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Stafford at all. He had time and those big plays

0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:37.760
<v Speaker 1>on the ground by Johnson, we're just backbreakers for this defense.

0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:39.960
<v Speaker 1>Look even the time when you there was a couple

0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:41.720
<v Speaker 1>of times when you kind of had him moving in

0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:44.800
<v Speaker 1>the pocket, but he was found, he found a route

0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:47.280
<v Speaker 1>to escape, picked up yardage you had one way, he

0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:49.760
<v Speaker 1>picked up the first down and stuff. So yeah, it

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:52.320
<v Speaker 1>just it just nothing went there. And and you know,

0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:54.360
<v Speaker 1>John I I've I've told the story before about how

0:05:54.400 --> 0:05:57.160
<v Speaker 1>getting ready, doing everything the same way, and you get

0:05:57.200 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 1>in the field and you just don't feel that's your day,

0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:02.520
<v Speaker 1>that one on my day. But you but but you go, well,

0:06:02.560 --> 0:06:04.920
<v Speaker 1>there's ten other guys in that huddle. They'll they'll lift

0:06:04.960 --> 0:06:06.880
<v Speaker 1>me up. And then you stick your head and huddle

0:06:06.880 --> 0:06:11.000
<v Speaker 1>and you look at and I you know, I can't

0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:12.720
<v Speaker 1>say for sure because I didn't stick my head, not

0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:14.800
<v Speaker 1>at all, but but I kind of felt like that

0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:17.640
<v Speaker 1>was one of those days for the defensive side of

0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:21.719
<v Speaker 1>the football there where it just you know, nobody, nobody

0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:23.320
<v Speaker 1>raised your hands say hey, I'm gonna take I'm gonna

0:06:23.320 --> 0:06:25.400
<v Speaker 1>take charge. Just take a look at the play. I

0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:27.920
<v Speaker 1>mean you could take a look. Bobby McCain coming back

0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:30.680
<v Speaker 1>from injury, was not himself. He was on the ground

0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:32.520
<v Speaker 1>a lot. You know, he's grabbing a lot. There's a

0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:36.599
<v Speaker 1>lot of things. Kiko Alonso was bouncing off of running backs.

0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:39.360
<v Speaker 1>He was bouncing off of wide receivers and tight ends.

0:06:39.480 --> 0:06:41.080
<v Speaker 1>How many times do we have to see a guy

0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.200
<v Speaker 1>going the flat where three guys cover him and the

0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:46.720
<v Speaker 1>tight end goes about ten yards behind and no one's there.

0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, just simple identification things that go on in

0:06:51.160 --> 0:06:53.240
<v Speaker 1>weeks seven or a week eight of a football season

0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:56.479
<v Speaker 1>that should never happen to a professional. I saw guys.

0:06:56.560 --> 0:07:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I saw guys in the run game taken inside charge

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:02.080
<v Speaker 1>is when they're when they're when they're running outside, when

0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.960
<v Speaker 1>they're running a perimeter, a perimeter play, and you got

0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:08.000
<v Speaker 1>a defensive end that that that takes an inside charge

0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:11.280
<v Speaker 1>and there's nobody outside to get up field and turn

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:13.680
<v Speaker 1>that thing inside and boom, there they go down for

0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:16.880
<v Speaker 1>another tan fifteen whatever yards. It seemed like every time

0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:19.360
<v Speaker 1>I turned around, there was just a big run coming

0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:21.640
<v Speaker 1>and started the first play of the game, carry on

0:07:21.760 --> 0:07:24.760
<v Speaker 1>Johnson goes twenty four yards. His next carry, he goes

0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.760
<v Speaker 1>seventy one. Two carries and he's at a hundred and

0:07:27.760 --> 0:07:31.400
<v Speaker 1>he's at yards after two carries in the game, and

0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:33.440
<v Speaker 1>that hasn't happened to a Detroit running back and went

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:37.480
<v Speaker 1>one years. I don't think Barry Sanders every did ninety

0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:40.120
<v Speaker 1>five yards, and he made a ninety yards in one place,

0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:42.880
<v Speaker 1>but I don't think every the first two plays. But

0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:45.440
<v Speaker 1>it just it just looked like we were out of

0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:48.360
<v Speaker 1>Every time he looked at they looked like the fresher team.

0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:50.800
<v Speaker 1>They look like the aggressor, they look like the bully

0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:54.240
<v Speaker 1>and the and the Miami Dolphins were relying on a

0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:56.920
<v Speaker 1>couple of plays to keep him close, keep him close,

0:07:57.000 --> 0:07:59.280
<v Speaker 1>but they never had that knockout punch where they could say,

0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:02.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, we're gonna take control of this football game.

0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:07.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, John, when it got to four fourteen fourteen,

0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:10.120
<v Speaker 1>I just kept going, you know, we're gonna pick something off.

0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:13.480
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna something's gonna something's gonna happen. We're gonna get

0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:16.160
<v Speaker 1>a turnover and it's gonna lead to a score, and

0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:18.520
<v Speaker 1>we're right back in this game. And it's just one

0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:20.960
<v Speaker 1>of those It just never, never, never happened. There was

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:24.240
<v Speaker 1>a one play where he coughed up the ball and

0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:29.360
<v Speaker 1>it yeah up in the air. One of those NFL

0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:31.480
<v Speaker 1>films were the bottle balls. He's kind of hanging in

0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:34.079
<v Speaker 1>the air. Nothing then but a bounce right back in

0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:37.280
<v Speaker 1>the ball carrier's hands. And you know, I missed opportunity there.

0:08:37.320 --> 0:08:39.920
<v Speaker 1>But uh and and and again. I talked about it

0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:42.320
<v Speaker 1>after the game on the postgame show. To me that

0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:44.760
<v Speaker 1>that was a game that was an opportunity missed in

0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:50.280
<v Speaker 1>that football You know, I'm not sure we missed more opportunities.

0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I think we missed more opportunities. And we did tackles

0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:55.240
<v Speaker 1>in that football game. You know, that was a lot.

0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:57.440
<v Speaker 1>But I just felt like this was you know, I

0:08:57.520 --> 0:09:00.640
<v Speaker 1>keep looking back. You go in. You need a Detroit

0:09:00.679 --> 0:09:04.000
<v Speaker 1>team that's a beatable football team and quite frankly, for

0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:06.080
<v Speaker 1>a team like Detroit, really all you do is gotta

0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.360
<v Speaker 1>get under their skin, you gotta you just gotta give

0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:10.200
<v Speaker 1>them a reason to that. They never had a reason

0:09:10.240 --> 0:09:13.600
<v Speaker 1>to doubt in that football game. And I was reading

0:09:13.640 --> 0:09:16.160
<v Speaker 1>some of the quotes from some of their players this morning,

0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:18.200
<v Speaker 1>and then that's what they said. They said, Hey, we

0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:20.360
<v Speaker 1>came out there, we were fresh, We felt good. You know,

0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:22.680
<v Speaker 1>we never felt like they challenged us. We never felt

0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:24.440
<v Speaker 1>like they were in the game. And we just we

0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:26.840
<v Speaker 1>just rolled on. And you can see now now, had

0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:29.040
<v Speaker 1>the Dolphins come out and stuffed it down their throat,

0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:30.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, and and and then now they know they

0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:33.520
<v Speaker 1>got they got a long day's work, that then it

0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:35.720
<v Speaker 1>could have been a different story. But it never really

0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:38.280
<v Speaker 1>threatened them. And you look at you look at Detroit.

0:09:38.320 --> 0:09:42.600
<v Speaker 1>Detroit scored on every single drive but one but the

0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:45.560
<v Speaker 1>second one they punted. And and and you talk about

0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:47.360
<v Speaker 1>the Dolphin, you know, the Dolphins to me or a

0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:48.840
<v Speaker 1>team that they better get out of there. They need

0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:51.040
<v Speaker 1>they need to play from the front. You know, we

0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:52.840
<v Speaker 1>we've played enough from behind. They need to be a

0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:56.360
<v Speaker 1>front running team. But they three and out punt punt

0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:59.240
<v Speaker 1>after a first down punt again. You finally get the

0:09:59.280 --> 0:10:02.040
<v Speaker 1>touchdown from he steals your ten seven You okay, that's

0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:04.320
<v Speaker 1>fine here we are. Let's just kind of keep it rolling.

0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:06.440
<v Speaker 1>You get a sack that gives you a punt, uh,

0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:09.920
<v Speaker 1>your punt again. Meanwhile, all they're doing scoring every single

0:10:10.040 --> 0:10:12.520
<v Speaker 1>time they went down the field except for the one

0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:15.680
<v Speaker 1>and and you just never got never got into the mode.

0:10:16.559 --> 0:10:19.240
<v Speaker 1>We never had enough to to pull even. And when

0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:21.960
<v Speaker 1>you pull even, kind of look looked at opponent in

0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:23.440
<v Speaker 1>the eye and say, you know, this is our game

0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:25.600
<v Speaker 1>at home. We're gonna find a way to win it.

0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:27.840
<v Speaker 1>You know. In the end, with six minutes left, you know,

0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:30.320
<v Speaker 1>Miami cuts the devist at the eight and they have

0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:32.040
<v Speaker 1>a chance to get off the field. And I think

0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 1>it was kind of a questionable call on his Xavian

0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:37.360
<v Speaker 1>Howard with the past interference. You know, he started with

0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:39.640
<v Speaker 1>that right or the left hand on on the left hip,

0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:41.720
<v Speaker 1>but pulled off right away and then made a play

0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:44.800
<v Speaker 1>on the football without being on the receiver's body, and

0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:47.600
<v Speaker 1>he gets a late flag from from that sideline. So

0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:50.319
<v Speaker 1>that that was a type of point of a game

0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:52.720
<v Speaker 1>where you got under six left, you feel like you

0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:55.160
<v Speaker 1>can get off the field. There and have a chance

0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:57.920
<v Speaker 1>to go down and and tie the football game. Uh

0:10:58.080 --> 0:11:00.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, so the Dolphins had a chance late. Yeah,

0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:04.199
<v Speaker 1>speaking of I'm I'm about I've had enough of these

0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:08.000
<v Speaker 1>passenger Ferris calls. I I just you know, it's it's

0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:11.480
<v Speaker 1>it's two penal of a call for those guys to

0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:15.600
<v Speaker 1>be making it on that little bit of contact because

0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:23.199
<v Speaker 1>I look, technically, yeah, you could call that, you could play.

0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:25.720
<v Speaker 1>You gotta let these guys play the game. And I

0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:27.640
<v Speaker 1>just don't think they're letting them play the game anymore.

0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:30.120
<v Speaker 1>And And to me, if if they're gonna if they're

0:11:30.120 --> 0:11:33.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna call pass interference the way they're calling pass interference,

0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:36.520
<v Speaker 1>it can't be a spot foul. You gotta it's gotta

0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:38.800
<v Speaker 1>be a ten It's gotta be ten or fifteen yards

0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:41.240
<v Speaker 1>or whatever. You can have some guy running down the

0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:44.000
<v Speaker 1>field and and their arm fight, their hand fighting going

0:11:44.040 --> 0:11:47.640
<v Speaker 1>down the field and the balls balls overflown, you can't

0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:49.920
<v Speaker 1>catch the ball, but they call a passe interference on

0:11:50.000 --> 0:11:52.400
<v Speaker 1>the defensive back and you get the ball forty five

0:11:52.480 --> 0:11:54.959
<v Speaker 1>yards down the field on the five yard line. That

0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:57.319
<v Speaker 1>to me is you know, if you're gonna call them

0:11:57.320 --> 0:12:00.160
<v Speaker 1>that way, then then cut down, the cut down, the uh,

0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:03.120
<v Speaker 1>the you know, the penal, it's the pen it is

0:12:03.320 --> 0:12:05.320
<v Speaker 1>when you get called from that one the one play

0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:08.920
<v Speaker 1>where Bobby gets past interference. You know, it's twenty to fourteen.

0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:12.160
<v Speaker 1>You know, the Dolphins are only trailing by six, and

0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:15.480
<v Speaker 1>I think that play just on the penalty alone went

0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:18.240
<v Speaker 1>from the thirty four yard line or the forty eight

0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:20.199
<v Speaker 1>yard line all the way down to the twenty three

0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:22.800
<v Speaker 1>yard line. You know, it's almost like a forty yard

0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:26.360
<v Speaker 1>penalty yard penalty. And Bobby's was a kind of an

0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:29.319
<v Speaker 1>armed drug arm laying down there just kind of you know,

0:12:29.600 --> 0:12:32.199
<v Speaker 1>hits him in the leg. You know, look, there was

0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:35.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, to me, that call and I saw a

0:12:35.440 --> 0:12:37.440
<v Speaker 1>call last night. They didn't get called. That's that's an

0:12:37.520 --> 0:12:40.760
<v Speaker 1>incidental contact to me. They both go down, right, and

0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:44.400
<v Speaker 1>they didn't get called last night. Yeah, it's right, So

0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:47.680
<v Speaker 1>it's you know, it's it's and look, yeah, I understand that,

0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:51.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, I understand that they're not calling them against teams.

0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:55.080
<v Speaker 1>They're they're not anti Dolphin, they're not anti Jets. They're

0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:56.880
<v Speaker 1>not they what they call them, what they call them,

0:12:57.080 --> 0:12:59.320
<v Speaker 1>the way they think they see them. But man, they've

0:12:59.320 --> 0:13:02.000
<v Speaker 1>got to do something about it, because it's just it's

0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:04.800
<v Speaker 1>it's ship. They're scoring forty five points a game, but

0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:09.080
<v Speaker 1>the average, I mean, look at and and really the

0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:12.600
<v Speaker 1>Dolphins haven't benefited for a couple of those calls down

0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:15.240
<v Speaker 1>the field when you when you throw it, the under

0:13:15.320 --> 0:13:17.720
<v Speaker 1>the under thrown ball is the one where teams are

0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:20.880
<v Speaker 1>getting that past interference because the defensive back is running

0:13:20.920 --> 0:13:23.520
<v Speaker 1>into the wide receiver or holding onto the wide receiver

0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:26.360
<v Speaker 1>because they're initiating contact. It seems like when the Dolphins

0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:28.360
<v Speaker 1>are trying to take that shot, the ball has been

0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:30.920
<v Speaker 1>either overthrown or when it is underthrown, like it was

0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Sunday against Detroit, you get a guy hurt. You know,

0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:36.080
<v Speaker 1>Kenny still doesn't come down with the ball, but he

0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:38.559
<v Speaker 1>hurts his growing and now he's you know, he's out

0:13:38.600 --> 0:13:41.920
<v Speaker 1>probably on Thursday night on the road against Houston. You know,

0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:46.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm just against I'm against a penalty in this game

0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:51.320
<v Speaker 1>where you know, you know, you know, you win or lose,

0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.600
<v Speaker 1>and it's a man, it's it's a big it's a

0:13:53.640 --> 0:13:55.880
<v Speaker 1>big difference, you know, it's a it's a major I mean,

0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:57.680
<v Speaker 1>looking it's just the way people feel the way people

0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:00.880
<v Speaker 1>go about their week from fans, to players and everyone,

0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:06.120
<v Speaker 1>it ruins their whole week exactly. But but when when

0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:09.360
<v Speaker 1>there's a play on the field where you can say, hey,

0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:12.760
<v Speaker 1>we're down by seven, you know we haven't been doing

0:14:13.960 --> 0:14:16.240
<v Speaker 1>let's just let's just throw the ball down the field

0:14:16.559 --> 0:14:18.520
<v Speaker 1>and we get we hope for hope for a catch

0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:21.200
<v Speaker 1>or a penalty. And when you gotta play, when you

0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:22.680
<v Speaker 1>can throw when you can when you gotta play in

0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:24.800
<v Speaker 1>a game like this where you can say, let me

0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:26.280
<v Speaker 1>just throw the ball down because there a good chance

0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:29.280
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna get a penalty. To me, that's that's that's

0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:31.080
<v Speaker 1>not that's fine if it's if you call it penalty,

0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:32.960
<v Speaker 1>but don't don't put it down the five yard line.

0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Bring it back, give them fifteen yards, you know, do

0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:38.120
<v Speaker 1>like a face mask. It's either a five or it's

0:14:38.160 --> 0:14:41.200
<v Speaker 1>either five or fifteen yards or whatever. You wanna get

0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:45.360
<v Speaker 1>something that eventually, and you hope that that Competition committee

0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:47.360
<v Speaker 1>kind of looks at down the road because that is

0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:50.640
<v Speaker 1>a very penal penalty in terms of yards with one

0:14:50.720 --> 0:14:54.440
<v Speaker 1>play that's not a successful play. And sometimes you know,

0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.600
<v Speaker 1>if you if you take away that spot foul, it

0:14:57.720 --> 0:15:00.000
<v Speaker 1>makes the offense earn it a little bit more, especially

0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:02.680
<v Speaker 1>with all the rules that are favoring the offensive side

0:15:02.720 --> 0:15:05.080
<v Speaker 1>of the football when it comes to the passing game

0:15:05.120 --> 0:15:08.120
<v Speaker 1>and in the contact rules and the holding rules and

0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:10.360
<v Speaker 1>the hands to the face and not being able to

0:15:10.400 --> 0:15:13.000
<v Speaker 1>target you know, hit hit guys coming across the middle,

0:15:13.080 --> 0:15:16.200
<v Speaker 1>like you know, to intimidate a wide receiver at warrant

0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:17.920
<v Speaker 1>offensive day, you only want to want you in there.

0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:19.680
<v Speaker 1>If you come in there, you're gonna get a headache

0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:23.760
<v Speaker 1>that day. Those days are pretty much over. So but

0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:26.440
<v Speaker 1>you got it. All goes back to the Dolphins made

0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:30.600
<v Speaker 1>some mistakes, They didn't play consistent enough football, and Detroit

0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:34.200
<v Speaker 1>handed it to him, came down. They came down to

0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:37.600
<v Speaker 1>South Florida on a week off and played more consistent

0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:40.480
<v Speaker 1>and executed better. Now there, look, there's no doubt walking

0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:42.560
<v Speaker 1>up that field who the better team was. That There

0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:45.320
<v Speaker 1>wasn't one question about who was a better team walking

0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:47.760
<v Speaker 1>off the field after that game. Now, going in canna

0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:49.920
<v Speaker 1>make a pretty good argument either way on that, but

0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:54.400
<v Speaker 1>but not not afterwards. And John I just was just shocked,

0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:59.040
<v Speaker 1>shocked at how they ran the ball. You know, it's

0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:02.400
<v Speaker 1>one thing if you run the ball fifty times and

0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:04.400
<v Speaker 1>you're getting two and three yards and you grind out

0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:09.600
<v Speaker 1>a hundred fifty yards. But but when carries, yeah, I mean,

0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:12.720
<v Speaker 1>come on now, you know, averaging eight point three yards

0:16:12.760 --> 0:16:16.040
<v Speaker 1>per carrying, that's what Johnson did. Nuts, just nuts, And

0:16:16.400 --> 0:16:18.880
<v Speaker 1>you know they had six drives that were over sixty

0:16:18.920 --> 0:16:21.840
<v Speaker 1>three yards. They were time on the clock, you know,

0:16:21.920 --> 0:16:25.080
<v Speaker 1>controlling the ball. Yeah, I'm looking with their explosive play.

0:16:25.200 --> 0:16:29.119
<v Speaker 1>Three first downs in their first touchdown, their their second touchdown,

0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:32.320
<v Speaker 1>they had five or six, They had five in their

0:16:32.440 --> 0:16:35.920
<v Speaker 1>their four Everyone was it was an accumulation, not like

0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:37.920
<v Speaker 1>they were not like they were throwing bombs. It was two.

0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:40.040
<v Speaker 1>They weren't to play drives, no, no, they they had

0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:42.440
<v Speaker 1>to work their way down the field and they added

0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:45.800
<v Speaker 1>those explosive plays and then they finished drives, and that

0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:48.160
<v Speaker 1>was the key. They just stayed one step ahead of

0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:51.200
<v Speaker 1>the Dolphins, and every time the Dolphins crept up and

0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:53.600
<v Speaker 1>thought they had a chance, they'd either score or play

0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:56.120
<v Speaker 1>keep away. You know, like you said, they only punted there.

0:16:56.200 --> 0:16:58.880
<v Speaker 1>I think it was their second possession in the afternoon.

0:16:59.400 --> 0:17:02.240
<v Speaker 1>The only time. The other thing is offensively, John and

0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:04.399
<v Speaker 1>I talked about getting out to getting jumping out and

0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:06.359
<v Speaker 1>putting some points on the board. Earlier. It really has

0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:08.719
<v Speaker 1>been an issue really since Adam Gays has been here.

0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:10.960
<v Speaker 1>It's been an issue of them not being able to

0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:13.480
<v Speaker 1>get ahead early in games. And this is one of

0:17:13.520 --> 0:17:15.840
<v Speaker 1>those games. We're really bitch in the butt and and

0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:19.080
<v Speaker 1>and they kept clamping kept clamping down on it while

0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:21.879
<v Speaker 1>while they had you had your bit there. But uh,

0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:24.880
<v Speaker 1>but having said that, with this offense, you know, you

0:17:24.880 --> 0:17:27.399
<v Speaker 1>you look at you look at Brox numbers. You know,

0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:31.920
<v Speaker 1>big quarterback rating, you know, no no turnovers, two touchdowns,

0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:38.480
<v Speaker 1>what's thirty nine? Two touchdown? You say that before the game.

0:17:38.600 --> 0:17:40.040
<v Speaker 1>You walk in make it you me and you were

0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:41.640
<v Speaker 1>walking that stay and you know, hey, Brock, you're gonna

0:17:41.640 --> 0:17:44.520
<v Speaker 1>throw it for two forty. He's gonna have two touchdowns,

0:17:44.560 --> 0:17:50.080
<v Speaker 1>no turnovers, Dolphins winning this game, win this game, not

0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:53.280
<v Speaker 1>not a problem. And especially when you add into dany

0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Am a. Dole is gonna get six, he's gonna get

0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:57.600
<v Speaker 1>his first touchdown of the season. Gasick, he's gonna have

0:17:57.680 --> 0:18:00.760
<v Speaker 1>three catches. Um, you know, the discipline anything. The big

0:18:00.760 --> 0:18:04.040
<v Speaker 1>difference between last week against the Chicago Bears and this

0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:06.960
<v Speaker 1>week against the Detroit Lions, where it was the first

0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:10.679
<v Speaker 1>down running for the Miami Dolphins. I think they lost

0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:13.560
<v Speaker 1>both sides of the line of scrimmage bow and when

0:18:13.600 --> 0:18:17.959
<v Speaker 1>you do that, you can't you can't mask your inability

0:18:18.040 --> 0:18:20.919
<v Speaker 1>to make plays either on third down or make explosive

0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:23.439
<v Speaker 1>plays when Albert Wilson leaves the game due to injury.

0:18:23.680 --> 0:18:25.960
<v Speaker 1>So I just thought that when you saw Frank Gore

0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:28.840
<v Speaker 1>go four or five and six last week and then

0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:32.760
<v Speaker 1>you see him go one, no game, two yards, it

0:18:32.920 --> 0:18:36.520
<v Speaker 1>doesn't you felt it. I felt it watching that they

0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:38.880
<v Speaker 1>were gonna struggle staying on the field. We talked about

0:18:38.960 --> 0:18:40.720
<v Speaker 1>them having success when they you know they can get

0:18:40.920 --> 0:18:43.400
<v Speaker 1>if they can get four or five yards on first down,

0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:45.960
<v Speaker 1>and then then they're in good shape because then you've

0:18:45.960 --> 0:18:48.000
<v Speaker 1>got two downs to to kind of pick and choose.

0:18:48.000 --> 0:18:50.879
<v Speaker 1>But you're right, you know second and eleven, you know

0:18:50.960 --> 0:18:54.080
<v Speaker 1>second and nine, second and eight, you know that those

0:18:54.119 --> 0:18:57.280
<v Speaker 1>don't those they're not easy to overcome in those situations.

0:18:57.280 --> 0:18:59.400
<v Speaker 1>They had a couple of holding calls and knocked him back.

0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Even if I think their first drive they got a

0:19:01.960 --> 0:19:05.280
<v Speaker 1>penalty that are a sack that that cost him, uh

0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:08.280
<v Speaker 1>cost him a first down? Yeah, franc one of those

0:19:08.280 --> 0:19:11.480
<v Speaker 1>two right off the bat. Yeah. Um, but yeah, he's

0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:16.920
<v Speaker 1>just just how I feel about it. You know what,

0:19:17.280 --> 0:19:21.000
<v Speaker 1>you never could feel comfortable. I didn't feel comfortable Sunday

0:19:21.320 --> 0:19:23.359
<v Speaker 1>watching it. You just felt like you're gonna have to

0:19:23.400 --> 0:19:26.359
<v Speaker 1>depend on the Detroit Lions making a mistake because I

0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:28.679
<v Speaker 1>didn't think the way the game was playing out that

0:19:28.720 --> 0:19:31.960
<v Speaker 1>the Miami Dolphins we're gonna be able to stop Stafford

0:19:31.960 --> 0:19:34.040
<v Speaker 1>in the lines and the running game of Johnson, and

0:19:34.040 --> 0:19:35.840
<v Speaker 1>we weren't gonna be able to score in the thirties

0:19:36.040 --> 0:19:39.160
<v Speaker 1>to overtake them. And and to tell you, yeah, you know,

0:19:39.960 --> 0:19:43.000
<v Speaker 1>literally you had insult to injury. Are the injury man

0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:49.440
<v Speaker 1>about the injury guys on the injury Albert Wilson an awkward,

0:19:49.520 --> 0:19:52.159
<v Speaker 1>an awkward step, an awkward hit, you know, and he

0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:55.280
<v Speaker 1>has a hip injury and he's out. Kenny Stills runs

0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:58.880
<v Speaker 1>over the security girl, he hurts his shoulder, comes back

0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:02.560
<v Speaker 1>in and plays, and then he going, you know, late

0:20:02.600 --> 0:20:04.359
<v Speaker 1>in the game, and it doesn't look like he's gonna

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:07.320
<v Speaker 1>be able to go. Um. Yeah, there there's just a

0:20:07.359 --> 0:20:10.360
<v Speaker 1>lot of guys that are you have questions on what

0:20:10.480 --> 0:20:13.080
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna be able to give you. Charles was probably

0:20:13.119 --> 0:20:15.840
<v Speaker 1>still out. Ryan Tannehill is still gonna be out. T

0:20:16.000 --> 0:20:18.760
<v Speaker 1>J McDonald, you know, had an ankle and a knee injury,

0:20:19.040 --> 0:20:22.640
<v Speaker 1>so he's questionable, uh to be able to play. There's

0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:25.120
<v Speaker 1>a lot of guys on the report, uh in terms

0:20:25.200 --> 0:20:28.119
<v Speaker 1>of you know, Vincent Taylor, you talked about Bobby McCain

0:20:28.200 --> 0:20:30.240
<v Speaker 1>with the knee, even though he's gonna be expected to

0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:32.520
<v Speaker 1>play again. But they're they're banged up. They're not a

0:20:32.560 --> 0:20:35.080
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent, no one is. But when you have this

0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:38.399
<v Speaker 1>amount of injuries to keep players explosive players on the

0:20:38.440 --> 0:20:41.320
<v Speaker 1>offensive side, it really dampens you. And look, I felt

0:20:41.359 --> 0:20:43.840
<v Speaker 1>pretty good going into that game from the standpoint that

0:20:44.000 --> 0:20:47.199
<v Speaker 1>moving forward, you have a guy started coming back. Andre

0:20:47.280 --> 0:20:49.240
<v Speaker 1>branch is coming back. I think Jonathan Wood is probably

0:20:49.240 --> 0:20:51.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna be back next week. You know. So you got

0:20:51.680 --> 0:20:55.119
<v Speaker 1>Cam back, you got Cam back, you got the or A. J. Derby.

0:20:55.359 --> 0:20:57.199
<v Speaker 1>He'll probably be back next week. I thought he had

0:20:57.200 --> 0:20:59.920
<v Speaker 1>a chance to play this last weekar So going into

0:21:00.000 --> 0:21:01.359
<v Speaker 1>game on, hey, gee, you know we can get through

0:21:01.440 --> 0:21:03.359
<v Speaker 1>this game. You got some you got you know, you

0:21:03.440 --> 0:21:05.480
<v Speaker 1>got the Calvaries coming back in to help you out.

0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:08.280
<v Speaker 1>But now you you've kind of the bottom bottom open

0:21:08.400 --> 0:21:10.359
<v Speaker 1>up and you dropped four or five other guys that

0:21:10.480 --> 0:21:12.679
<v Speaker 1>probably not gonna nothing to help you this one, and

0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:14.480
<v Speaker 1>then you've got four or five they're gonna play that,

0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:17.399
<v Speaker 1>aren't you know that you're kind of out there crossing

0:21:17.440 --> 0:21:19.640
<v Speaker 1>your fingers, going, you know, hopefully he can get get

0:21:19.680 --> 0:21:22.320
<v Speaker 1>by this week, and then you get the weekend to

0:21:22.440 --> 0:21:24.440
<v Speaker 1>heal up and and probably four or five days to

0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:27.400
<v Speaker 1>get up. I just I was listening to some listen

0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:30.560
<v Speaker 1>to the radio show and they're talking about talking about

0:21:30.600 --> 0:21:32.760
<v Speaker 1>the game, and they go, oh, yeah, I forgot I'm

0:21:32.800 --> 0:21:35.359
<v Speaker 1>thinking about I'm thinking about Deshaun Watson. I'm thinking about

0:21:35.359 --> 0:21:37.360
<v Speaker 1>offense and those guys, and I go, shoot, I forgot

0:21:37.400 --> 0:21:40.200
<v Speaker 1>about j J. Watt and Gadavian Clowney. On the other side,

0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:42.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, you've got a bunch of guys in the

0:21:42.560 --> 0:21:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Texans that you know, they're feeling pretty good about themselves

0:21:45.800 --> 0:21:48.320
<v Speaker 1>four straight right now, and then in their in their

0:21:48.359 --> 0:21:51.680
<v Speaker 1>home for a for a Thursday night game, and uh

0:21:52.320 --> 0:21:55.080
<v Speaker 1>you know that that's look and with our history against

0:21:55.119 --> 0:21:58.719
<v Speaker 1>the Texans hasn't been very good as a franchise, but

0:21:58.880 --> 0:22:00.840
<v Speaker 1>you know that's I think that Texans came in here

0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:03.560
<v Speaker 1>their their their inaugural year and and beat our assid

0:22:03.720 --> 0:22:05.679
<v Speaker 1>the uh at the then. I don't know what it

0:22:05.760 --> 0:22:09.600
<v Speaker 1>was land Shark or some life or whatever your stadium

0:22:09.640 --> 0:22:12.959
<v Speaker 1>at at that point, but uh yeah, we haven't had

0:22:12.960 --> 0:22:15.119
<v Speaker 1>a very good uh haven't had very good history with

0:22:15.359 --> 0:22:17.520
<v Speaker 1>against his football team. Like playing the tit it's like

0:22:17.560 --> 0:22:21.360
<v Speaker 1>playing Baltimore for the Miami Dolphins. To two teams the

0:22:21.359 --> 0:22:25.879
<v Speaker 1>teams struggled with, and you've got to be able to

0:22:26.040 --> 0:22:28.560
<v Speaker 1>You've got a different type and a different style of

0:22:28.640 --> 0:22:32.360
<v Speaker 1>quarterback for this defense to prepare for with the Deshaun Watson,

0:22:32.680 --> 0:22:34.720
<v Speaker 1>because the guy can move off of his spot, he

0:22:34.720 --> 0:22:37.000
<v Speaker 1>can create on his own. He still can beat you

0:22:37.080 --> 0:22:40.280
<v Speaker 1>from the pocket. You got you know who's the DeVante?

0:22:40.320 --> 0:22:43.199
<v Speaker 1>They got the the their the receiver. Who who's the receiver?

0:22:44.320 --> 0:22:48.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah Hopkins? John Hopkins, Well that guy may be as

0:22:48.760 --> 0:22:51.359
<v Speaker 1>good as anybody in the league. His kid, well, he

0:22:51.359 --> 0:22:53.719
<v Speaker 1>he can beat you man to man, he can sit

0:22:53.800 --> 0:22:57.080
<v Speaker 1>down in zones. He's good run after catch. Um. You know,

0:22:57.080 --> 0:22:59.240
<v Speaker 1>so Hopkins is one of those guys that can really

0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:02.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, you've got Lamar Miller, who's an explosive running

0:23:02.359 --> 0:23:06.639
<v Speaker 1>back game. I don't know, I don't know what he

0:23:06.720 --> 0:23:07.920
<v Speaker 1>ended up with, but I know at some point I

0:23:07.960 --> 0:23:10.480
<v Speaker 1>looked at scoreboard and so he had eight rs rushing

0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:13.680
<v Speaker 1>in that game. So yeah, there's a lot of things

0:23:13.680 --> 0:23:15.480
<v Speaker 1>that you have to be able to to do well

0:23:15.520 --> 0:23:18.200
<v Speaker 1>to win on the road, number one against any opponent.

0:23:18.480 --> 0:23:21.280
<v Speaker 1>But when you've got you've got corners that are good,

0:23:21.320 --> 0:23:24.000
<v Speaker 1>you've got edge rushers that are really good. You've got

0:23:24.240 --> 0:23:27.159
<v Speaker 1>a quarterback that can be explosive, either tucking it or

0:23:27.280 --> 0:23:29.400
<v Speaker 1>throwing it on the run or hanging in the pocket.

0:23:29.640 --> 0:23:32.360
<v Speaker 1>And you've got Miller that can you know, really put

0:23:32.400 --> 0:23:35.280
<v Speaker 1>that fifty sixty seventy yard run at any time with

0:23:35.320 --> 0:23:38.160
<v Speaker 1>his speed. There's a lot of issues the Miami Dolphins

0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:41.520
<v Speaker 1>have to worry about, but most importantly, they've got to

0:23:41.520 --> 0:23:44.520
<v Speaker 1>worry about how they play and and in correcting the

0:23:44.520 --> 0:23:47.679
<v Speaker 1>mistakes that beat him at hard Rock Stadium on Sunday.

0:23:47.720 --> 0:23:51.919
<v Speaker 1>They can't. They have to eliminate, you know, the easy runs,

0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:55.600
<v Speaker 1>this explosive plays, the mistakes that they they can control

0:23:55.800 --> 0:23:58.080
<v Speaker 1>defensive and it's not it's not hard to do, John,

0:23:58.160 --> 0:24:00.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know, it's it's it's about you know,

0:24:01.080 --> 0:24:04.280
<v Speaker 1>it's about defensive linemen and lineman you know, not getting

0:24:04.320 --> 0:24:07.160
<v Speaker 1>big separation forward and back, if you know what I mean.

0:24:07.440 --> 0:24:09.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, it seemed like times you had you know,

0:24:09.119 --> 0:24:11.240
<v Speaker 1>maybe your defensive end was way up the field and

0:24:11.240 --> 0:24:13.320
<v Speaker 1>you and one of your defensive tackles kind of pushed

0:24:13.359 --> 0:24:16.080
<v Speaker 1>back and it created create a big crease in or

0:24:16.119 --> 0:24:18.159
<v Speaker 1>such a big hole for these guys run through. And

0:24:18.160 --> 0:24:20.600
<v Speaker 1>it was all day long. It was on both sides,

0:24:20.760 --> 0:24:24.680
<v Speaker 1>was inside, it was outside. I think they had success

0:24:24.880 --> 0:24:28.280
<v Speaker 1>running and every It wasn't like you stopped him from

0:24:28.320 --> 0:24:30.720
<v Speaker 1>running under perimeter, and they did it all inside or

0:24:30.800 --> 0:24:33.160
<v Speaker 1>vice versa, and they wherever they wanted to go. They

0:24:33.160 --> 0:24:35.359
<v Speaker 1>were able to run. You seem like the running backs,

0:24:35.560 --> 0:24:41.240
<v Speaker 1>especially Johnson. It wasn't so much uh uh blunt, but

0:24:41.480 --> 0:24:44.120
<v Speaker 1>Johnson was able to hit his stride two or three

0:24:44.119 --> 0:24:47.840
<v Speaker 1>steps and never you know, Denver deviated. He got faster

0:24:48.160 --> 0:24:50.479
<v Speaker 1>attacking the line of scrimmage. It wasn't that he had

0:24:50.520 --> 0:24:53.440
<v Speaker 1>a stop and then start again. When he got the ball,

0:24:53.560 --> 0:24:56.480
<v Speaker 1>he was downhill and he was he was at top

0:24:56.520 --> 0:24:59.399
<v Speaker 1>speed in three steps and he went right by the

0:24:59.480 --> 0:25:04.200
<v Speaker 1>second Dolphins. This thing. The other thing was disappointing, uh

0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:07.720
<v Speaker 1>they're tight end was that Roberts comes in with one,

0:25:07.800 --> 0:25:12.159
<v Speaker 1>He comes in with a catch for a touchdown and

0:25:12.280 --> 0:25:15.440
<v Speaker 1>ends up with three catches for two touchdowns in the game,

0:25:15.880 --> 0:25:18.840
<v Speaker 1>and he was wide open, wide open, and look, I

0:25:18.840 --> 0:25:23.240
<v Speaker 1>watched someone the one John Uh. I hate to say it,

0:25:23.280 --> 0:25:25.639
<v Speaker 1>but he looked he looked so slow. I thought I

0:25:25.640 --> 0:25:27.720
<v Speaker 1>could have covered him, you know what I mean. But

0:25:28.080 --> 0:25:29.719
<v Speaker 1>maybe maybe it's just the way I looked at him.

0:25:29.760 --> 0:25:31.240
<v Speaker 1>He just he looked like he was just kind of

0:25:32.520 --> 0:25:34.639
<v Speaker 1>very fast because he didn't want to run to be covered.

0:25:34.680 --> 0:25:38.040
<v Speaker 1>He was exactly so he's like, let me just idle

0:25:38.080 --> 0:25:40.240
<v Speaker 1>this thing down. Just sit here because no one's around me.

0:25:40.680 --> 0:25:43.679
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully Matthew can see me. Yeah. So well, look we

0:25:43.720 --> 0:25:45.560
<v Speaker 1>are we are what we are now, four and three,

0:25:45.640 --> 0:25:48.160
<v Speaker 1>And as I said, missed opportunity would have been great

0:25:48.200 --> 0:25:50.679
<v Speaker 1>to be sitting here at five and two rounds now.

0:25:50.840 --> 0:25:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Now you're in a dog fight because the short week

0:25:53.280 --> 0:25:55.600
<v Speaker 1>and anything and look, anything had happened to short Dolphins

0:25:55.640 --> 0:25:57.439
<v Speaker 1>could go there and play a great game and you know,

0:25:57.480 --> 0:25:59.080
<v Speaker 1>get the job done and come back and say, hey,

0:25:59.119 --> 0:26:00.880
<v Speaker 1>look at it, all right, we're five and three. Let's

0:26:00.920 --> 0:26:03.159
<v Speaker 1>move on, or you can sit here next to you know,

0:26:03.160 --> 0:26:06.639
<v Speaker 1>you're five hundred at the halfway in no In South Florida,

0:26:06.720 --> 0:26:09.040
<v Speaker 1>fans Bloom and Doom sets in at that point, at

0:26:09.040 --> 0:26:10.920
<v Speaker 1>the halfway mark. I mean, you're sitting there the way

0:26:10.960 --> 0:26:13.399
<v Speaker 1>you start four and two, four and two, people were

0:26:13.400 --> 0:26:16.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna think of the sky's falling four to Yeah, that's

0:26:16.680 --> 0:26:18.760
<v Speaker 1>all we're gonna win. That's all we're gonna do. We're

0:26:18.760 --> 0:26:20.919
<v Speaker 1>all gonna win four games. What are we doing? No,

0:26:21.080 --> 0:26:23.520
<v Speaker 1>But you're right both if you if you come back

0:26:23.600 --> 0:26:26.840
<v Speaker 1>after playing the Texans and you're at five hundred, you're

0:26:26.840 --> 0:26:29.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna feel like the first half of the season was

0:26:29.520 --> 0:26:32.960
<v Speaker 1>a loss for the Dolphins because you start three and oh,

0:26:33.320 --> 0:26:35.560
<v Speaker 1>you feel like you know you've got a chance that

0:26:35.640 --> 0:26:38.800
<v Speaker 1>you know you start with, you start winning, and you

0:26:38.800 --> 0:26:41.119
<v Speaker 1>you never got that extra game. You know, you go

0:26:41.200 --> 0:26:43.120
<v Speaker 1>to New England, you feel like, hey, we're gonna show

0:26:43.160 --> 0:26:45.760
<v Speaker 1>the Patriots. Now we're gonna get this extra game. We're

0:26:45.800 --> 0:26:48.240
<v Speaker 1>gonna get ahead of them. You lose, you know, you

0:26:48.320 --> 0:26:50.159
<v Speaker 1>come back, you look at your wounds, you learn from

0:26:50.240 --> 0:26:53.000
<v Speaker 1>your mistakes. You're getting on another role again. You figure, well,

0:26:53.000 --> 0:26:55.240
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna win. We're gonna win this Detroit game, and

0:26:55.280 --> 0:26:57.360
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be one that we can put in the pocket.

0:26:57.440 --> 0:26:59.840
<v Speaker 1>After not even talking about the Cincinnati game that you

0:27:00.119 --> 0:27:02.640
<v Speaker 1>like you've thrown away. But if you win at home

0:27:02.680 --> 0:27:05.800
<v Speaker 1>against Detroit, you stay undefeated at home, you feel like

0:27:05.840 --> 0:27:08.040
<v Speaker 1>you're dominating, and you know teams when they come down

0:27:08.080 --> 0:27:11.040
<v Speaker 1>to South Florida, but you lose that game, and now

0:27:11.080 --> 0:27:12.680
<v Speaker 1>you're trying to go, all right, where are we gonna

0:27:12.720 --> 0:27:15.000
<v Speaker 1>find some other ones? And and on a short week

0:27:15.000 --> 0:27:17.879
<v Speaker 1>with a with a roster that's that's beat up, this

0:27:17.960 --> 0:27:19.720
<v Speaker 1>is gonna be one of the tougher games. The Miami

0:27:19.800 --> 0:27:22.720
<v Speaker 1>Dolphins have to scratch and claw to win, no doubt,

0:27:22.800 --> 0:27:24.480
<v Speaker 1>and they're trying to find out they're going early. You know,

0:27:24.560 --> 0:27:28.160
<v Speaker 1>they early travel to UH to Houston just to kind

0:27:28.160 --> 0:27:31.080
<v Speaker 1>of get acclaman. I think coaches, I think every coach

0:27:31.119 --> 0:27:33.440
<v Speaker 1>trying to figure out what's the best way to what's

0:27:33.480 --> 0:27:35.439
<v Speaker 1>the best way to get your team ready, especially if

0:27:35.440 --> 0:27:37.040
<v Speaker 1>you gotta go on the road and play on a

0:27:37.080 --> 0:27:39.680
<v Speaker 1>Thursday night, because you know, you you miss a dan

0:27:39.800 --> 0:27:43.880
<v Speaker 1>travel UH and and everyone's beat up, and it's just man,

0:27:44.000 --> 0:27:47.240
<v Speaker 1>I those Thursday games. We used to play Thursday games

0:27:47.280 --> 0:27:49.920
<v Speaker 1>every now and then late in the year we play one,

0:27:50.000 --> 0:27:53.280
<v Speaker 1>but but they never seemed as as brutal as these are.

0:27:53.480 --> 0:27:57.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, every week Thursday games, um Man, you look

0:27:57.880 --> 0:27:59.840
<v Speaker 1>at these guys because they just played two three days ago. Man,

0:27:59.840 --> 0:28:02.960
<v Speaker 1>that's so I think that's a rough ask. I thought

0:28:03.040 --> 0:28:07.080
<v Speaker 1>I saw a stat today that talked about home teams

0:28:07.080 --> 0:28:10.000
<v Speaker 1>on Thursday night. It's it's you know more than half

0:28:10.480 --> 0:28:13.240
<v Speaker 1>that that they're they're coming out, they're coming out on top,

0:28:13.600 --> 0:28:15.800
<v Speaker 1>and you know they're arrested. They get that extra day,

0:28:15.840 --> 0:28:18.639
<v Speaker 1>don't have to travel. You know, if they're beat up,

0:28:18.640 --> 0:28:20.800
<v Speaker 1>they can go home and sleep in their own bed

0:28:20.840 --> 0:28:23.399
<v Speaker 1>and they can get their treatment earlier. You know, in

0:28:23.440 --> 0:28:26.280
<v Speaker 1>their own facility. They have a ritual. You know, they're

0:28:26.320 --> 0:28:28.320
<v Speaker 1>on their program. More to say, even though there you

0:28:28.400 --> 0:28:30.359
<v Speaker 1>lose a couple of days that it's much to be

0:28:30.400 --> 0:28:32.520
<v Speaker 1>said about being the home team on a Thursday night. Yeah,

0:28:32.520 --> 0:28:37.040
<v Speaker 1>but somehow, some way, uh, we gotta find Look, you

0:28:37.080 --> 0:28:39.800
<v Speaker 1>look like it's you. You may call it coach speak,

0:28:39.880 --> 0:28:42.000
<v Speaker 1>you may call it what you want. But no matter

0:28:42.040 --> 0:28:44.120
<v Speaker 1>what the circumstances are, no matter if you've got to

0:28:44.400 --> 0:28:46.440
<v Speaker 1>pull up the fifty three guy in the roster and

0:28:46.520 --> 0:28:48.720
<v Speaker 1>have him line up and play for you, you gotta

0:28:48.760 --> 0:28:52.400
<v Speaker 1>find some way, somehow to come out of Houston with

0:28:52.560 --> 0:28:54.920
<v Speaker 1>a win. And that that means all those guys in

0:28:54.960 --> 0:28:57.560
<v Speaker 1>that defensive front. They've got to play twice. They gotta

0:28:57.560 --> 0:28:59.880
<v Speaker 1>play twice as good as they did last week. Line

0:29:00.000 --> 0:29:02.920
<v Speaker 1>actors have to be better. Second, everybody on that football

0:29:02.920 --> 0:29:06.360
<v Speaker 1>team has to be better than they were on Sunday.

0:29:06.440 --> 0:29:08.600
<v Speaker 1>They've got to be better at what they do and

0:29:08.640 --> 0:29:11.560
<v Speaker 1>they've got to be more disciplined with what their assignments.

0:29:11.560 --> 0:29:13.640
<v Speaker 1>So well, this team wins as a team. They have

0:29:13.760 --> 0:29:16.320
<v Speaker 1>to play as a team on Thursday, because it's not

0:29:16.360 --> 0:29:18.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna be one guy that's gonna turn the tide for

0:29:18.760 --> 0:29:21.000
<v Speaker 1>the Miami Dolphins are turning that switch from off to on.

0:29:21.480 --> 0:29:24.080
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be that group on defense running to the football,

0:29:24.640 --> 0:29:28.000
<v Speaker 1>creating those opportunities with turnovers. It's gonna be on offense,

0:29:28.240 --> 0:29:32.040
<v Speaker 1>eliminating the sacks, being better on first down, being better

0:29:32.760 --> 0:29:35.960
<v Speaker 1>on finishing drives with touchdowns, and and doing all the

0:29:36.040 --> 0:29:39.720
<v Speaker 1>little things that seem like fell through the cracks against

0:29:40.000 --> 0:29:42.360
<v Speaker 1>the Detroit Lions. Yeah, and then look, it's tough on

0:29:42.360 --> 0:29:45.600
<v Speaker 1>the coaching staff, certainly tough on players that they'll get

0:29:45.640 --> 0:29:48.720
<v Speaker 1>no this week, they'll get no physical work at all.

0:29:49.000 --> 0:29:51.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, this will all be about just you know,

0:29:51.440 --> 0:29:56.160
<v Speaker 1>walking through things, sending meetings, talking about things, getting getting

0:29:56.160 --> 0:29:59.400
<v Speaker 1>your your mental game plan put together and and going

0:29:59.400 --> 0:30:01.080
<v Speaker 1>through all that, and then and then going out and

0:30:01.120 --> 0:30:03.000
<v Speaker 1>just laying it out on the line. The good thing

0:30:03.040 --> 0:30:05.400
<v Speaker 1>is when you've got ten days off when you come back,

0:30:05.400 --> 0:30:06.600
<v Speaker 1>so you might as well go and lay it all

0:30:06.600 --> 0:30:08.200
<v Speaker 1>on the line. Well, you know, the good thing about

0:30:08.240 --> 0:30:10.080
<v Speaker 1>a short week is you don't have time to worry

0:30:10.080 --> 0:30:12.760
<v Speaker 1>about how the Detroit Lions beat you anymore because you've

0:30:12.800 --> 0:30:14.600
<v Speaker 1>got a really good football team that's on a roll

0:30:14.680 --> 0:30:17.400
<v Speaker 1>square ahead of you. And maybe it's deleting a little

0:30:17.400 --> 0:30:19.640
<v Speaker 1>bit of the game plan on both sides of the

0:30:19.680 --> 0:30:22.800
<v Speaker 1>football and focusing on in on what we really do

0:30:22.920 --> 0:30:25.560
<v Speaker 1>well and try to and try to win that way

0:30:25.600 --> 0:30:28.560
<v Speaker 1>by repetition on a smaller scale of what you have

0:30:28.600 --> 0:30:31.040
<v Speaker 1>to do offensively in the game plan, maybe taking a

0:30:31.080 --> 0:30:34.000
<v Speaker 1>few things out defensively, tweaking it to a certain guys,

0:30:34.160 --> 0:30:36.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, with Hopkins, and how you want to defense

0:30:36.480 --> 0:30:38.640
<v Speaker 1>Watson in the pocket and being able to, you know,

0:30:38.680 --> 0:30:41.440
<v Speaker 1>not rush past the quarterback. All the little things that

0:30:41.520 --> 0:30:43.400
<v Speaker 1>you have to focus on when you're when you're changing

0:30:43.400 --> 0:30:45.800
<v Speaker 1>your your focus to a different team. This may be

0:30:45.880 --> 0:30:47.360
<v Speaker 1>that kind of game where you say, let's just look,

0:30:47.440 --> 0:30:49.680
<v Speaker 1>let's let's look at the five things we do best

0:30:49.680 --> 0:30:52.400
<v Speaker 1>in the running game, five things best things we do

0:30:52.440 --> 0:30:54.840
<v Speaker 1>in the passing game, and let's just run the hell

0:30:54.880 --> 0:30:58.240
<v Speaker 1>out of defense. Look, let's do what we're stout at.

0:30:58.360 --> 0:31:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Let's let's do that. Let's go man to man. Let's

0:31:00.280 --> 0:31:03.440
<v Speaker 1>not beat ourselves, make ourselves, let's not let's not outthink ourselves.

0:31:03.680 --> 0:31:05.400
<v Speaker 1>Let's just play. Let's go out there and throw the

0:31:05.400 --> 0:31:08.720
<v Speaker 1>best we got at him and let the chip fall.

0:31:08.760 --> 0:31:11.440
<v Speaker 1>Don't try to out scheme um out, you know, trick

0:31:11.480 --> 0:31:13.760
<v Speaker 1>play him this, and now I just go out do

0:31:13.840 --> 0:31:16.000
<v Speaker 1>what you do best and then let the chips fall.

0:31:16.120 --> 0:31:18.360
<v Speaker 1>And hopefully the guys that are that have to step

0:31:18.440 --> 0:31:21.280
<v Speaker 1>up and play for the injuries, they just do their job,

0:31:21.600 --> 0:31:23.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, because we've seen him at practice. They're out

0:31:23.880 --> 0:31:25.840
<v Speaker 1>there on scout team. They're doing all the things that

0:31:26.040 --> 0:31:28.680
<v Speaker 1>they're they're working hard, and now they get that chance,

0:31:28.720 --> 0:31:30.800
<v Speaker 1>they get that call up to say it's my turn.

0:31:30.840 --> 0:31:32.640
<v Speaker 1>I gotta be good for one week, and this is

0:31:32.720 --> 0:31:35.760
<v Speaker 1>this is the week. I gotta play at a level that, uh,

0:31:35.920 --> 0:31:38.880
<v Speaker 1>my expectation level is why the Dolphins kept me around

0:31:38.920 --> 0:31:43.640
<v Speaker 1>for this opportunity. Vincent, Hey, I think we're gonna Getcent

0:31:44.000 --> 0:31:46.640
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. Well, let's give him a couple of minutes.

0:31:46.680 --> 0:31:47.800
<v Speaker 1>He's got a couple of things to do. Let's so

0:31:47.800 --> 0:31:49.360
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna just kind of hang out here for little

0:31:49.400 --> 0:31:57.280
<v Speaker 1>bit and wait for Vincent to come back here. All right,

0:31:57.280 --> 0:32:00.600
<v Speaker 1>As we said, here's Vincent Taylor join us. Vince. Uh. Uh,

0:32:00.800 --> 0:32:02.680
<v Speaker 1>tough day yesterday, And I know it's one of those

0:32:02.680 --> 0:32:05.240
<v Speaker 1>games that, uh, it seems like whatever could go wrong

0:32:05.280 --> 0:32:06.720
<v Speaker 1>and kind of went wrong with you, certainly on the

0:32:06.720 --> 0:32:08.720
<v Speaker 1>defensive side. You guys had a chance to watch and

0:32:08.800 --> 0:32:12.080
<v Speaker 1>watch tapes and that, um, the things that you saw

0:32:12.080 --> 0:32:14.960
<v Speaker 1>out there all correctable things. Yeah, for sure. You know,

0:32:15.160 --> 0:32:17.480
<v Speaker 1>we got a quick turn around going into Thursday. We

0:32:17.480 --> 0:32:19.760
<v Speaker 1>gotta put the Detroit film behind us. You know, we

0:32:19.840 --> 0:32:22.440
<v Speaker 1>got a big one coming up another road, a road

0:32:22.520 --> 0:32:24.920
<v Speaker 1>game for us in a hostile environment. So it's gonna

0:32:24.960 --> 0:32:26.880
<v Speaker 1>be on Thursday night, so a lot of people would

0:32:26.920 --> 0:32:28.560
<v Speaker 1>be tuning in. So I gotta go up there and

0:32:28.640 --> 0:32:31.520
<v Speaker 1>execute and let last week be last week. Short turnaround,

0:32:31.560 --> 0:32:33.920
<v Speaker 1>and then you gotta do how do you go about

0:32:34.200 --> 0:32:36.520
<v Speaker 1>getting yourself I know you're kind of young guy in sleep,

0:32:36.520 --> 0:32:38.720
<v Speaker 1>but how do you go about getting yourself ready? Uh?

0:32:38.920 --> 0:32:40.640
<v Speaker 1>In such a short turnover so that you can be

0:32:40.680 --> 0:32:43.520
<v Speaker 1>at your best come Thursday night. Like Yawait told me

0:32:43.520 --> 0:32:45.880
<v Speaker 1>after the game. You know today it's really Monday, but

0:32:45.960 --> 0:32:48.160
<v Speaker 1>for us, since it's a quick turn around as a Wednesday,

0:32:48.160 --> 0:32:49.880
<v Speaker 1>so we gotta look at it as a Wednesday, you know,

0:32:50.160 --> 0:32:52.520
<v Speaker 1>approach it like that. Uh, you know, get out of

0:32:52.520 --> 0:32:55.880
<v Speaker 1>my side, is getting the cold, you know, start hydrating

0:32:55.880 --> 0:32:58.000
<v Speaker 1>and get a lot of sleep. Is that? Is that

0:32:58.040 --> 0:33:00.200
<v Speaker 1>the biggest thing for you right now is to your

0:33:00.240 --> 0:33:02.880
<v Speaker 1>body because you look at the injury report, they're seventeen

0:33:02.920 --> 0:33:06.560
<v Speaker 1>guys on the injury report. Everybody's nicked and everybody's bruised

0:33:06.560 --> 0:33:09.440
<v Speaker 1>at a certain point. But rest and taking care of

0:33:09.520 --> 0:33:12.320
<v Speaker 1>what you can control with your time off the field,

0:33:12.360 --> 0:33:14.560
<v Speaker 1>is that? Is that a priority for you guys right now?

0:33:14.840 --> 0:33:16.920
<v Speaker 1>For sure? Like you mentioned, it's something that you get control,

0:33:17.000 --> 0:33:18.800
<v Speaker 1>so you gotta make sure you stay on it. Like

0:33:18.840 --> 0:33:22.200
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned, a lot of sleep and a lot of hydration,

0:33:22.280 --> 0:33:24.000
<v Speaker 1>so you know, you gotta drink up, drink a lot

0:33:24.000 --> 0:33:25.840
<v Speaker 1>of fluids because Thursday I'll be here before you know.

0:33:26.040 --> 0:33:29.480
<v Speaker 1>Have you had you know, wins and losses aside, if

0:33:29.480 --> 0:33:31.760
<v Speaker 1>you had a lot of fun with the group that

0:33:31.800 --> 0:33:34.520
<v Speaker 1>you're with because it seems like through training camp and

0:33:34.560 --> 0:33:36.720
<v Speaker 1>through you know OT going back to O T. A

0:33:36.880 --> 0:33:39.680
<v Speaker 1>S and going to the preseason, do you guys have

0:33:40.200 --> 0:33:43.080
<v Speaker 1>a good camaraderie. You guys kind of genuinely like each

0:33:43.080 --> 0:33:45.440
<v Speaker 1>other and get along and and when things are going

0:33:45.480 --> 0:33:47.280
<v Speaker 1>well on the field, it seems like you guys are

0:33:47.280 --> 0:33:50.080
<v Speaker 1>there to pick each other up. Man, Am I getting

0:33:50.080 --> 0:33:52.200
<v Speaker 1>the right vibe from that room? Oh? Yes, for sure,

0:33:52.240 --> 0:33:53.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, not just from my room, but as a

0:33:53.680 --> 0:33:55.840
<v Speaker 1>defense as a whole. You know, when things going down,

0:33:55.880 --> 0:33:58.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, we go to the sideline dnon go talk

0:33:58.360 --> 0:34:00.240
<v Speaker 1>to the DBS. We talked to the linebacker. So we

0:34:00.280 --> 0:34:02.200
<v Speaker 1>all just try to stay close. But in the D

0:34:02.280 --> 0:34:04.120
<v Speaker 1>line room, like you mentioned, you know, we were pretty

0:34:04.120 --> 0:34:06.320
<v Speaker 1>close as a unit. And I think that's the way

0:34:06.320 --> 0:34:08.200
<v Speaker 1>it should be. I keep your people, keep telling me.

0:34:08.200 --> 0:34:10.919
<v Speaker 1>You're an instigator in there. You you create, you create

0:34:10.960 --> 0:34:14.799
<v Speaker 1>issues in there. Man. You talking up a little bit

0:34:14.800 --> 0:34:16.879
<v Speaker 1>with your fellows, just kind not nothing bad, just kind

0:34:16.880 --> 0:34:18.920
<v Speaker 1>of keep things like, keep things fun in there. You

0:34:18.920 --> 0:34:20.600
<v Speaker 1>gotta have fun. You know, we see we'd be around

0:34:20.640 --> 0:34:22.319
<v Speaker 1>each other every day, so you know, you gotta make

0:34:22.320 --> 0:34:23.839
<v Speaker 1>it fun. It was one of the things I told

0:34:23.880 --> 0:34:26.279
<v Speaker 1>coach Chris. You know, uh, every time I'm here, I

0:34:26.360 --> 0:34:28.040
<v Speaker 1>try to have fun with it, you know, and uh,

0:34:28.400 --> 0:34:30.560
<v Speaker 1>you don't make it fun, it's gonna be a long day.

0:34:30.640 --> 0:34:32.560
<v Speaker 1>You know. It's funny the fun you know, you can

0:34:32.640 --> 0:34:34.799
<v Speaker 1>you can break down all the groups on the football team.

0:34:34.800 --> 0:34:39.320
<v Speaker 1>You got the quarterbacks, the wide receivers, the grossest guys

0:34:39.440 --> 0:34:41.480
<v Speaker 1>or the offensive linement and the defensive line. When it

0:34:41.480 --> 0:34:45.520
<v Speaker 1>comes to in meeting room, in meeting room entertainment, if

0:34:45.560 --> 0:34:48.440
<v Speaker 1>you will, for sure you know that all the flatulence

0:34:48.480 --> 0:34:52.000
<v Speaker 1>going on, all that kind of stuff, for sure you

0:34:52.080 --> 0:34:54.680
<v Speaker 1>got You got your dbs, they kind of I guess

0:34:54.680 --> 0:34:57.200
<v Speaker 1>you would stay pretty boys into all the fashion, you know,

0:34:57.440 --> 0:34:59.680
<v Speaker 1>all dressed up well and looking good, dressed up. And

0:34:59.680 --> 0:35:01.879
<v Speaker 1>then you got d lineman who do all the dirty work.

0:35:02.160 --> 0:35:06.000
<v Speaker 1>So that's how you got it. Who's the big instigator?

0:35:06.400 --> 0:35:09.280
<v Speaker 1>Some somebody told me, got y'all likes to like to

0:35:09.320 --> 0:35:11.520
<v Speaker 1>get the poking with the stick a little bit. Got

0:35:11.560 --> 0:35:13.080
<v Speaker 1>your man a cool dude. You know, he's like a

0:35:13.080 --> 0:35:14.919
<v Speaker 1>brother to me. You know, me and him pretty close.

0:35:14.960 --> 0:35:17.879
<v Speaker 1>But he him, Yeah, you gotta you gotta watch out

0:35:17.920 --> 0:35:19.400
<v Speaker 1>for him. You know, he tried to be slick. He

0:35:19.440 --> 0:35:21.799
<v Speaker 1>tried to get him there where nobody could hear. But

0:35:21.840 --> 0:35:23.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, me and him got that connection. And I

0:35:23.880 --> 0:35:26.600
<v Speaker 1>know it like people don't know what we'll be talking about,

0:35:26.800 --> 0:35:28.799
<v Speaker 1>but you know we got that connection. See that good

0:35:28.800 --> 0:35:31.279
<v Speaker 1>of a cook. He's always bragging about he's a big,

0:35:31.320 --> 0:35:34.480
<v Speaker 1>big time cook. Yeah, I mean he gotta uh you know,

0:35:34.560 --> 0:35:37.120
<v Speaker 1>he had barbecues at his house for the d Lineman.

0:35:37.360 --> 0:35:40.239
<v Speaker 1>He got really like hamburger helper and stuff like that.

0:35:40.320 --> 0:35:43.200
<v Speaker 1>Now you do hamburgers? Did he do? Me? So? Heven

0:35:43.280 --> 0:35:45.520
<v Speaker 1>just down? Do you know what he's doing on a

0:35:45.560 --> 0:35:47.440
<v Speaker 1>grill like that? I just want to make sure because

0:35:47.640 --> 0:35:49.879
<v Speaker 1>there's been a lot of rumors floating around that he's

0:35:49.880 --> 0:35:52.760
<v Speaker 1>been taking some sending somebody to public and getting stuff

0:35:53.040 --> 0:35:55.719
<v Speaker 1>and saying that he cooked it. Yeah. Yeah, I've seen

0:35:55.760 --> 0:35:58.480
<v Speaker 1>it from from you know, close up. He cooked it himself.

0:36:00.120 --> 0:36:03.120
<v Speaker 1>Vouch for him if it's how do you feel about?

0:36:03.360 --> 0:36:05.279
<v Speaker 1>And look? I know I know that the first thing

0:36:05.320 --> 0:36:07.799
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna say that everyone says is that I still

0:36:07.800 --> 0:36:09.799
<v Speaker 1>got to get better. But but but you really made

0:36:09.800 --> 0:36:11.400
<v Speaker 1>a big jump from last year to this year. You

0:36:11.440 --> 0:36:13.319
<v Speaker 1>played well last year. This year you just kind of

0:36:13.320 --> 0:36:16.319
<v Speaker 1>playing out of control out there. You feel like you're

0:36:16.719 --> 0:36:18.640
<v Speaker 1>you're moving in the right direction as far as your

0:36:18.680 --> 0:36:20.960
<v Speaker 1>individual play is concerned. Oh yes, you know, but like

0:36:21.000 --> 0:36:22.719
<v Speaker 1>you mentioned, I got a lot more stuff I can

0:36:22.760 --> 0:36:24.400
<v Speaker 1>improve on, you know, to take my game to the

0:36:24.440 --> 0:36:27.160
<v Speaker 1>next level. But this year I think the different from

0:36:27.200 --> 0:36:29.080
<v Speaker 1>this year than last year. You know, I'm playing more

0:36:29.120 --> 0:36:31.399
<v Speaker 1>free now, you know what I'm saying, things better than

0:36:31.760 --> 0:36:34.839
<v Speaker 1>different formation. Watching film and uh, I kind of got

0:36:34.920 --> 0:36:38.840
<v Speaker 1>an idea what's coming. When you woke up day after

0:36:38.880 --> 0:36:44.080
<v Speaker 1>Detroit did how piste off were you in terms of God?

0:36:44.120 --> 0:36:46.640
<v Speaker 1>That was a good opportunity for this football team to

0:36:46.760 --> 0:36:49.080
<v Speaker 1>win at home? And how do you how do you

0:36:49.120 --> 0:36:52.120
<v Speaker 1>put that aside now? To focus because as a pro

0:36:52.239 --> 0:36:54.520
<v Speaker 1>that's gotta be the toughest thing to do, you know,

0:36:54.560 --> 0:36:57.440
<v Speaker 1>to put a loss aside and strictly focus on the

0:36:57.440 --> 0:36:59.279
<v Speaker 1>team at hand. How do you do that? How do

0:36:59.320 --> 0:37:01.520
<v Speaker 1>you handle that? You got to you know that it's

0:37:01.560 --> 0:37:03.440
<v Speaker 1>a lead where you're gonna win something, you're gonna lose something.

0:37:03.440 --> 0:37:05.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's the NFL. You know, it's hard to

0:37:05.400 --> 0:37:08.239
<v Speaker 1>win the game at this level where there's a division game,

0:37:08.280 --> 0:37:10.840
<v Speaker 1>a home game or away game. But like you mentioned,

0:37:10.840 --> 0:37:12.880
<v Speaker 1>we got a fast turnaround. We gotta put it behind

0:37:12.960 --> 0:37:15.840
<v Speaker 1>us and our main focus right now. You gotta you

0:37:15.960 --> 0:37:18.719
<v Speaker 1>you got a good football team on on Thursday. They

0:37:18.760 --> 0:37:21.359
<v Speaker 1>won four straight games the Houston Texas, and I don't

0:37:21.360 --> 0:37:24.480
<v Speaker 1>know if you're the Dolphins have always struggled against this

0:37:24.600 --> 0:37:27.200
<v Speaker 1>football team, So it'd be nice to kind of change

0:37:27.239 --> 0:37:29.920
<v Speaker 1>that that that tone right now. But uh, but you

0:37:29.920 --> 0:37:32.080
<v Speaker 1>guys gotta be prepared for a very good football team.

0:37:32.080 --> 0:37:33.719
<v Speaker 1>That's they're gonna try to run the football and young

0:37:33.840 --> 0:37:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Lamar Miller had over a hundred yards rushing in in

0:37:36.440 --> 0:37:38.560
<v Speaker 1>their game. Got a good quarterback that can move around.

0:37:38.560 --> 0:37:40.719
<v Speaker 1>So you guys definitely gonna have your hands fall out

0:37:40.719 --> 0:37:43.120
<v Speaker 1>there on on Thursday evening for sure. You know, I'm

0:37:43.120 --> 0:37:44.799
<v Speaker 1>pretty sure they're gonna look at the last game and

0:37:44.800 --> 0:37:46.640
<v Speaker 1>try to take some of the stuff that Detroit did.

0:37:46.920 --> 0:37:48.960
<v Speaker 1>Like you mentioned that on the Full Game Winning Street.

0:37:49.280 --> 0:37:52.320
<v Speaker 1>They're going back home on a Thursday night hospital environment,

0:37:52.320 --> 0:37:55.040
<v Speaker 1>so they're gonna bring a game. We gotta expect to

0:37:55.120 --> 0:37:57.680
<v Speaker 1>do the same. And you get a different style quarterback

0:37:57.719 --> 0:37:59.960
<v Speaker 1>you're going up against as well. You know, Matthew Stafford,

0:38:00.360 --> 0:38:02.279
<v Speaker 1>he's a little bit of a mobile guy, but Lex

0:38:02.400 --> 0:38:05.120
<v Speaker 1>is hanging the pocket when you look at Deshaun Watson.

0:38:05.440 --> 0:38:07.359
<v Speaker 1>What do you guys see I know you you've got

0:38:07.360 --> 0:38:09.279
<v Speaker 1>to peek at him on tape a little bit. What

0:38:09.280 --> 0:38:12.000
<v Speaker 1>what type of player? You know him from college obviously,

0:38:12.080 --> 0:38:14.200
<v Speaker 1>but what type of player do you see now for

0:38:14.239 --> 0:38:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the Houston Texans calling signals? Well, it ain't no sequel.

0:38:16.880 --> 0:38:18.719
<v Speaker 1>You know, everybody in the lead, you know what, Uh,

0:38:18.800 --> 0:38:21.680
<v Speaker 1>DeShawn is a capable of doing. He's a mobile quarterback,

0:38:21.760 --> 0:38:23.879
<v Speaker 1>you know. Uh. Once we get with Burke and get

0:38:23.920 --> 0:38:25.959
<v Speaker 1>with the defense, we're gonna have a game plan ready

0:38:26.000 --> 0:38:27.520
<v Speaker 1>for him, and it's up to us to go out

0:38:27.520 --> 0:38:29.920
<v Speaker 1>there and execute it. This this is a game about.

0:38:29.960 --> 0:38:31.320
<v Speaker 1>This is a mental game for you guys. You're not

0:38:31.360 --> 0:38:34.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna practice much all week, so it's about getting yourself

<v Speaker 1>mentally prepared to play the football game. Uh and and

0:38:37.080 --> 0:38:38.920
<v Speaker 1>and and and I guess thinking about it, going in

0:38:38.960 --> 0:38:40.880

0:38:41.280 --> 0:38:43.359
