WEBVTT - Drive Time: Unpacking OBJ Fit and How the Offense Can Get Even Better 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:04.120 To on the move, going deep Speedlis Peace, do hell 0:00:04.480 --> 0:00:04.960 peas do. 0:00:05.760 --> 0:00:09.399 From the Baptist Health Studio. This inside the Baptist Help 0:00:09.440 --> 0:00:16.960 Training Complex. This is Drivetime with Travis Wingfield. He's got 0:00:17.680 --> 0:00:19.440 my ad hands in the playoffs? 0:00:27.720 --> 0:00:31.480 What is up Dolphins? And welcome to the Drift Time Podcast. 0:00:31.760 --> 0:00:34.360 I am your host, Travis Wingfield. And on today's show, 0:00:34.720 --> 0:00:37.720 we are going to make this episode as close to 0:00:37.800 --> 0:00:41.120 a Travis locked on Dolphins episode as we can. I 0:00:41.159 --> 0:00:44.320 took a deep dive into the tape, the context, the 0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:48.040 stats around everything regarding this Odell Beckham move, how I 0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:50.280 think it changes things for the Dolphins, how it could 0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:52.400 prevent a lot of the issues we saw on the 0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:54.840 offense down the stretch, and how it could create some 0:00:54.960 --> 0:00:58.280 issues for the opposition we'll see in twenty twenty four. 0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:00.480 Plus we'll also go ahead and talk about HI think 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:03.639 this offense can break records in twenty twenty four. All 0:01:03.680 --> 0:01:05.000 of that in a heck of a lot more From 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:08.039 the Baptist Health Studios inside the Baptist Health Training Complex. 0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:11.200 This is the Drive Time Podcast. 0:01:11.400 --> 0:01:14.600 Ye daff is first six hundred. 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:16.959 And six points in an NFL season. This was back 0:01:17.000 --> 0:01:20.559 during the sixteen game seasons thirty seven point nine per game. 0:01:20.600 --> 0:01:23.920 That was what the twenty thirteen Denver Broncos did as 0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:26.560 they broke the record for points per game and total 0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:30.360 points scored in an NFL season. And that is surely 0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:33.920 a high per game total thirty eight points per game, 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:37.480 but six hundred points with seventeen games on the schedule. 0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:41.000 I think it's doable. That's thirty five point three points 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:45.200 per game. And here is how the Dolphins can and 0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:48.560 will do that. First, the roster reset series is done. 0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:50.480 Rookie Minnie camp is coming up this week. We'll have 0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:53.720 the schedule release, I believe next week, I think, I think. 0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:57.280 And then we get into OTAs and man, from there, 0:01:57.400 --> 0:01:59.880 it's at least for me, a sprint to a news 0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:02.760 with a six week vacation sandwiched in there. And that 0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:05.640 sounds kind of gratuitous to say, because six week vacations 0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:08.600 pretty nice, But to me, those six weeks go by 0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:10.280 faster every single year. 0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:10.760 It's funny. 0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:13.680 I used to wish that time away more than anybody 0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:16.400 else on the planet. I never forget, I'll never forget 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:20.240 when I went to Disneyland with my brother and his son, 0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:23.000 and then my wife joined us later it was for 0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:25.799 a work trip for him. He works in insurance and 0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:29.399 gets all these great lavish vacations out of it. And 0:02:29.800 --> 0:02:32.359 Dolphin's camp streted on like day three of that trip, 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:33.680 and I was like, let's get these first two days 0:02:33.680 --> 0:02:36.119 out of the way. I want to go read practice reports, which, 0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:38.280 in hindsight, reading the tweets I was bringing from the people, 0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:40.480 I read from them back then, those tweets were not 0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:41.160 very useful. 0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:42.000 But I digress. 0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:46.560 But every time of year, every year, this time of year, 0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:49.959 I used to wish that time away more than anybody else. 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:52.720 And this is scientifically proven by the way, by myself 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:56.680 and my own feelings literally counting away summer months. Here's 0:02:56.680 --> 0:02:59.080 how football crazy I used to be. I will never forget. 0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:01.920 Two of my best buddies made a three hour road 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:05.000 trip to an amusement park silver Wood and Idaho for 0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:07.280 those that know the Pacific Northwest, and I opted to 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:09.680 skip the trip so I could stay home and watch 0:03:09.720 --> 0:03:12.919 the Hall of Fame game. That's a sickness man now, 0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:16.120 fifteen fifteen years or so later. I enjoy the golf, 0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:17.920 I enjoy the beach, I enjoy the time with my 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:20.600 family and revel in those times, I get the sense 0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:22.919 the audience of a certain age maybe feels the same way. 0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:24.600 But who the heck knows Do the young people still 0:03:24.600 --> 0:03:27.440 do that with their sports? I don't know, but I digress. 0:03:27.560 --> 0:03:31.240 All of this is a preamble into opining what's next 0:03:31.240 --> 0:03:34.440 here on the podcast. Well, luckily, I've been holstering a 0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:37.240 couple of things here that happened to coincide, at least 0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:40.040 two of them with the Odell Beckham signing and every 0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:43.640 day listeners, Hell you once a week listeners know how 0:03:43.720 --> 0:03:47.240 much I thought receiver or really just additional pass catchers 0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:50.480 was one way to get this offense to the next level, 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.080 and quite frankly, it's something they desperately needed down here 0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:56.120 in Miami. And just a reminder, as I've been rewatching 0:03:56.160 --> 0:03:58.800 broadcast copy on my days off, I guess I'm still 0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:01.600 pretty sick with football. I feel like people forget how 0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:02.960 productive this offense was. 0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:03.520 Last year. 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:06.760 Scoring twenty points was like a woefully bad day for 0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:09.600 the offense. I'm old enough to remember when twenty points 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:11.480 for the Dolphins was probably going to be a victory 0:04:11.680 --> 0:04:13.280 that Week four game in Buffalo. It's like, what is 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:15.960 run with the Dolphins offense? Meanwhile, seventy the week prior. 0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:17.560 In the next two games, just score thirty one and 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:21.880 forty two, like even with the late season air quote struggles, 0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:25.200 four hundred and ninety six points, eight hundred and twenty 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:27.720 two yards literally a drop or two or a third 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:30.040 and short conversion or a field goal or two away 0:04:30.279 --> 0:04:33.240 from seven thousand yards and five hundred points. I mean, 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:36.400 do we realize that twenty nine point two points per 0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:39.960 game is the sixty third best mark in NFL history? 0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:43.680 Did you guys know that thirty two teams play the 0:04:43.720 --> 0:04:46.760 whole year every year? Sixty third all time Dolphins offense 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:48.839 last year in points per game, and that was with 0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:52.960 the following limitations. Tyreek Hill playing just sixty three percent 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:56.880 of the offensive snaps, Jalen Waddle playing under fifty six 0:04:56.960 --> 0:05:00.280 percent of the offensive snaps. The snaps they were both 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:04.240 on the field together for forty four percent of your 0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:07.640 offensive snaps last year. That's where the obvious addition of 0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:11.200 Beckham and how his signing should make us better. Right 0:05:11.560 --> 0:05:13.800 with them on the field together, Reek and Waddle we 0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:17.400 averaged six point seven yards per play without one of them. 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:19.960 It was six yards per play. Pretty damn good. 0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:23.279 Still without both of them five point six yards play, 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:27.000 actually six point six led the NFL. Only US and 0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:29.440 the Niners had over six yards per play last year, 0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:32.080 and averaging five point six yards per play would have 0:05:32.400 --> 0:05:34.920 had you tied for six in the National Football League. 0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:37.760 So like the whole Tyreek and Waddle are the only 0:05:37.839 --> 0:05:41.160 reason we are good idea, Well, it's pretty much nonsense, 0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:45.080 because for fifty six percent of your snaps you had 0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:48.640 other guys on the field and you still averaged five 0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:51.040 point six yards play, the seventh most of the National 0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:57.040 Football League. But if you want those early season gaudy numbers, 0:05:57.080 --> 0:05:59.080 pushing seven yards per play in an NFL record, you're 0:05:59.080 --> 0:06:01.320 gonna want those guys to get So the big takeaway 0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:03.839 is that, regardless, it's still pretty damn good. And that's 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:06.360 where I get to this point. And look, I am 0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:10.320 completely innudated with this stuff. So perhaps you're listening during 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:12.320 your set of curls at the gym, or while you 0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:15.000 crank out your mid quarter projections for Q two at 0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:17.200 your desk, and you're saying to yourself, Travis, I know 0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:19.159 they were good. You don't have to convince me of that, brother. 0:06:19.440 --> 0:06:23.120 And this isn't even another Twitter Dia Tribe. I listen 0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:25.880 to NFL podcasts all the time. I won't lift list 0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:29.120 the specific one I'm talking about here, but it's like, 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:31.880 we don't trust this offense is the sentiment I've heard 0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:34.280 multiple times. How do we know they can keep it 0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:37.800 rolling as the year goes along. I mean, it's not cold. 0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:41.479 We didn't play well against the Titans, and that game 0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:41.880 was here. 0:06:41.920 --> 0:06:42.520 It wasn't just. 0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:45.760 Because of cold weather. It's because of availability. That was 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:47.880 the night that Tyreek got hurt. He misses the next game. 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:51.320 You still scored thirty points, but still probably working through 0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:54.719 a sore sprained angle when he does get back a 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:56.960 couple of weeks later, and then Waddle goes down these 0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:58.960 in the game that Tyreek comes back for with an 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.560 even more severe angle that gets him back in time 0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:04.799 to play on a tight ankle in negative thirty degree 0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:07.320 temperatures in Kansas City. And that's all without saying, oh, 0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:09.960 by the way, we had backups from the opening day 0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:13.040 offensive line on eighty percent of the offensive line. 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:13.680 Like it's a. 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:17.120 Freakin lot man so to bring this all back on 0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:18.840 track and maybe land the plane here a little bit. 0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:21.640 Injuries are the biggest to turrent this offense can face 0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:23.760 and it will stay that way, as it does for 0:07:23.800 --> 0:07:27.320 any team. But next, I would argue the best way 0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:30.760 to combat this offense slowing down late in the year again, 0:07:30.800 --> 0:07:34.800 aside from just staying healthy, is a consistent separator not 0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:41.120 named Waddle or Tyreek. That's that's my contention. So Odell 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:44.440 on third down, pretty good, isn't he? Just last year 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:47.240 on third down alone, ten catches for one hundred and 0:07:47.280 --> 0:07:50.440 eighty yards and two touchdowns on eighteen targets, and all 0:07:50.480 --> 0:07:53.320 those catches went for first downs with an average distance 0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:56.280 to gain of six point seven yards on those targets, 0:07:56.360 --> 0:07:59.000 so converting an average of third and long at a 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:02.040 fifty six percent and oh, by the way, eighteen yards 0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:05.000 per reception more than his total on both first and 0:08:05.120 --> 0:08:07.760 second down, and a yards per target of ten point 0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:10.800 zero on top of that. I mean, that's converting and 0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:14.000 hitting explosive, and it's all over the tape. More on 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.240 that in just a moment, but just to go deeper 0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:19.000 on third and six or I'd rather check that third 0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:22.280 to four and six, So third medium he caught nine 0:08:22.360 --> 0:08:25.000 of twelve targets for one hundred and seventy two yards. 0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:27.720 All of those were first downs seventy five percent of 0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:30.320 the time, converting on third medium, on third and long 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:33.160 he caught two of four for a fifty percent conversion rate. 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:36.480 I mean, I'm just saying that's a very very tangible 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:38.840 aspect you didn't have last year. I'm going to approve 0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:40.280 that to you here in just a minute. But first 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:43.240 career third down one hundred and nineteen conversions on two 0:08:43.360 --> 0:08:46.520 hundred and sixty nine targets a forty four percent conversion rate, 0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:48.880 and in an offense last year as more of a 0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:51.760 featured role opposed to being the guy right, he was 0:08:51.800 --> 0:08:54.000 Odell Beckham Junior there for a while for the Giants 0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:55.080 and the Browns alike. 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:56.120 The numbers jump. 0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:58.640 It's funny how that works a little bit different of 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:01.200 a role, less of the attention from the defense, and 0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:03.679 those numbers go up, just like he's gonna see here. 0:09:03.880 --> 0:09:05.360 It reminds me of when you get one of your 0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:07.880 sluggers who maybe maybe he's struggling, or maybe you just 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:09.280 have some other guys you want to shake the order 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:10.440 up with, and you put him in the sixth spot 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:11.960 in the batting order, and you gets to said he'd 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:13.760 had a fastballs and all of a sudden the ball's 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:16.240 jumping off of his bat. Again, I wanted to take 0:09:16.280 --> 0:09:19.400 a look at last year's other options outside of reek 0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:21.920 and waddle and try to put this three to the test. 0:09:21.920 --> 0:09:24.680 So Brax and Barrios caught eleven, or rather had eleven 0:09:24.720 --> 0:09:27.360 conversions on seventeen targets, which is pretty good. But let's 0:09:27.360 --> 0:09:29.360 think about this. I mean, I watched the tape and 0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:31.640 those are pretty open instances for the most part, and 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:34.760 we're talking about nine yards per catch. Odell converts at 0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:37.000 that same rate and doubles the yards you get as 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:40.760 a result. Hey, sometimes your hypothesis doesn't always go the 0:09:40.800 --> 0:09:43.040 track you want to. But I think there is context 0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:45.840 here to prove this point. It's about situation, and I 0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:48.880 can tell you right now this does more to tell 0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:52.880 you about the opportunity Odell has here with the space 0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:55.840 he'll get to operate than it does to disparage a 0:09:55.880 --> 0:09:58.160 Bras and Barrios or somebody else on the team. Because 0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:01.800 before this year career, Barrios on third down had a 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:04.360 forty four percent conversion rate too. But you see when 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:07.959 Odell is the man and he's posting that and you're 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:10.720 getting single coverage with a three way go and like 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:13.439 thirty yards of space and you have the exact same production. 0:10:13.880 --> 0:10:15.280 Do you see what I'm getting out here? How there's 0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:18.160 an opportunity for way more? What do I always say, 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:20.280 there's more meat on the bone? I know Seth Levet 0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:23.440 from the Fish Tank podcast appreciates that sentiment. Cedric Wilson 0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:26.280 had five conversions on eleven third down targets last year. 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:28.559 Again, pretty good, but opportunity. 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:30.600 Man. I'm telling you, we'll get the tape here in 0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:32.040 a moment. We'll get to the tape here in the moment. 0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:34.720 I should say twenty five career first downs on fifty 0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:36.080 five career targets on third down. 0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:38.000 Again, that's not bad forty five percent. 0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:40.320 But again, the tape, and most of that was in 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:42.880 Dallas when he was behind Lamb and Gallop and all 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.680 the boys. Was Brandon Cooks there, I can't remember, but 0:10:45.720 --> 0:10:48.079 he was pretty far down the list of options in 0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:50.559 Dallas like he was here in Miami. Let's keep going 0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:54.319 back to twenty twenty two with Trent Sherfield, because I 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:56.120 love all these guys, by the way, some of my 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.240 favorite players to be around. But you get what I'm 0:10:58.280 --> 0:11:01.040 doing here, right, I hope laying the content on this 0:11:01.280 --> 0:11:04.679 thickly helps you understand what this offense can be with 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:07.160 this one addition, I mean, look at the Niners when 0:11:07.240 --> 0:11:09.560 Juwan Jennings began to figure it out. It's amazing what 0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:12.520 happens when you don't just have the two or three 0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:14.920 top guys, you have fourth and fifth options that can 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:17.880 really make differences for you. I think it's a modern 0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:20.000 game today for these top offenses. And that's before we 0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:21.920 get to the value of depth in case of an 0:11:21.920 --> 0:11:25.079 injury Sherfield. In twenty twenty two third downs, he had 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:28.000 seven first downs on nineteen targets and just five point 0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:30.559 six yards per target. So it did get a lot 0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:34.160 better in twenty twenty three. But twenty twenty four, that's next, right, 0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:36.120 what did you grow upon last year? You got better 0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:38.520 on these third down situations, But let's get it even 0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:41.040 better from where it was last year, because in twenty 0:11:41.040 --> 0:11:43.440 twenty two it was thirty six percent at five point 0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:46.199 six yards per target. That is not a good mark 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:50.360 to hit. Also, Odell doesn't drop the football one drop 0:11:50.440 --> 0:11:52.720 last year on sixty three targets, and that, by the way, 0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:55.839 tracks with Malik Washington and Taj Washington. The draft picks 0:11:55.960 --> 0:11:58.000 and John Us Smith for that matter. All those guys 0:11:58.000 --> 0:12:00.760 had drop rates under two percent last year college or 0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:03.199 the pros, and look, Reak and Waddle are going to 0:12:03.320 --> 0:12:05.200 drop some footballs. Go look at the list of league 0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:07.319 leaders and drops. It's the guys who also lead the 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:09.800 NFL in catches in yards every year. Aman Ross Saint 0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:12.800 Brown was number one and Tyreek's number two and drop 0:12:12.840 --> 0:12:14.800 passes last year, and you could argue they were the 0:12:14.800 --> 0:12:17.719 best receivers in the entire NFL last season. So you're 0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:20.600 willing to accept that when you're talking about literal all 0:12:20.640 --> 0:12:23.320 pros in some instances first ballot Hall of famers in 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:25.840 the future, and maybe a little less so with players 0:12:25.840 --> 0:12:28.960 that are not as explosive as Tyreek and Waddle. That 0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:32.320 right there is all you need to know. But you 0:12:32.400 --> 0:12:34.520 know that's not how we do things on Drive Time. 0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:36.199 We're gonna make it a deep dive here, So let's 0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:37.839 go ahead and take a break right there, come back 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:39.840 on the other side and get to the rest of 0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:42.600 this very exploratory podcast taking a look at how the 0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:47.040 Dolphins offense in twenty twenty three can break records. Maybe 0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:50.280 that's next Draft Time podcast. Your host Travis Winfield brought 0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:54.800 to you by Auto Nation queued you up there in 0:12:54.800 --> 0:12:56.400 the first segment. I want to go back now and 0:12:56.440 --> 0:12:59.120 get to some real in depth detail here, and this 0:12:59.160 --> 0:13:02.720 is the second segment of my Lockdown Dolphins podcast. Was 0:13:02.800 --> 0:13:05.640 always a like deep dive, and that's kind of what 0:13:05.679 --> 0:13:07.120 we're gonna do here. I would write an article for 0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:09.560 Lockdown Dolphins dot com and tell you the outcome of 0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:13.239 those search research projects. 0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:15.079 That's what we're gonna do right here. 0:13:15.120 --> 0:13:18.280 So just off of watching the tape when ten and 0:13:18.440 --> 0:13:21.240 seventeen were not on the field together or the defense 0:13:21.280 --> 0:13:23.959 whatever it was both or one on or one on, 0:13:24.120 --> 0:13:28.319 both off when they were taking them away, look elsewhere. 0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:31.880 The result was bodied, bodied, bodied hell. I saw a 0:13:31.880 --> 0:13:34.320 little rub route that freed up Cedric Wilson on a 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:37.360 flat and it took it, and it took him across 0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:40.160 that man. I could have used a sun dial to 0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:42.120 measure how long it took him to get off that 0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:44.079 pick and turn the ball up field until run after 0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:47.800 the catch. Did you guys watch Odell last year? Limited opportunities? 0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:50.640 But I saw long touchdowns where he flat out runs 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:52.880 past dude on a literal fifty yard bomb on a 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:55.840 double move against the Rams, or a sixty five yard 0:13:55.840 --> 0:13:57.960 touchdown on a catch and run against the Bengals where 0:13:57.960 --> 0:13:59.679 he catches a little square in and takes off an 0:13:59.679 --> 0:14:02.800 outrun the entire defense. Do we have that last year 0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:06.840 in our number three? To quote Leonardo DiCaprio in Wolf 0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:10.480 of Wall Street, absolubsolutely not. And that's just talking about 0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:12.600 what you have when they're all on the field together. 0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:15.600 One of the biggest detriments the Dolphins had last year 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:17.880 was when one of those guys was out with injuries 0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:21.040 down the stretch. Because we had the Jets game, no Tyreek, 0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:24.160 the Cowboys game, Waddle gets injured early, Wattle not there 0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:26.880 for the Buffalo or Baltimore games, like the biggest games 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:28.520 of the year, you didn't have both these guys in 0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:30.360 the field, and that's when your offense creater the biggest 0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:33.600 against the best defenses go figure right. But with one 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:35.800 of those guys out now, we don't have the same 0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:39.880 issues where you can squat on Tyreek and completely take 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:41.720 him out of a route concept the way Buffalo did 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:45.040 in that season finale, because Odell Beckham is not gonna 0:14:45.080 --> 0:14:47.760 get plastered in one on one coverage every single rep. 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:48.480 You can win with that. 0:14:48.720 --> 0:14:51.920 It creates a much bigger bubble, a bigger ripple effect 0:14:51.960 --> 0:14:55.040 of we can withstand this injury, we can compete at 0:14:55.040 --> 0:14:57.480 a high level despite this injury. And yeah, when they're 0:14:57.480 --> 0:14:59.600 all together, that's the best of the entire world. If 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:01.280 you could that for the whole year, we're gonna break 0:15:01.320 --> 0:15:03.560 records in my opinion. But you can at least sustain 0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:06.200 and with stan injuries because of this, and it helps 0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:08.760 you just you don't have to change the entire complexion 0:15:08.800 --> 0:15:11.320 of your game plan because Odell can get to place 0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:13.800 as fast and quick and not take all those throws 0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:16.440 off the menu that you have with Wreek and Waddle. 0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:19.280 I talked about the play against the Cowboys. There's a 0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:22.920 play the Wattle pick the two a pick throwing to 0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:25.040 Waddle in the first quarter of the KC game in 0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:27.960 the playoffs. This is going to be a theme on 0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:30.360 this next project I'm doing right here, where there is 0:15:30.480 --> 0:15:33.600 literally four acres of land in the middle of the 0:15:33.600 --> 0:15:35.760 football field and we have to win a one on 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:38.400 one matchup against like cornerback four. We can't do it. 0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:40.560 We cannot do it. This is one of those examples 0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:44.880 where Cedric is just completely wiped out one on one 0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:47.520 coverage three way go cannot get off the line of 0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:49.960 scrimmage with the press and he's wiped all the way 0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:50.520 out of the play. 0:15:50.760 --> 0:15:51.520 You can't have that. 0:15:51.600 --> 0:15:53.160 You can't win with that when teams are going to 0:15:53.200 --> 0:15:55.920 play the way teams playoff last year, it just completely 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:58.120 took away any cohesion the offense had. I don't think 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:00.600 it's possible now with Odell Beckham, the fold over, with 0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:02.560 John Husmith in the field four for that matter, or 0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:04.720 if Devon a chance splits out and plays receiver, because 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:06.160 he can do that. When you have Jalen Wright and 0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:08.600 Raheem Moster, you've got options. But this is more about 0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:11.200 Odell Beckham, So I digress. But here's what I want 0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:13.280 to do. I want to take a look at this 0:16:13.320 --> 0:16:16.000 is the project third down sacks and turnovers, or the 0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:18.640 failures in the two games that we were atrocious on 0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:21.760 third down and that ultimately, in my opinion, cost us 0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:24.520 the division, the Tennessee game and the Buffalo finale. So 0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:26.440 let's go ahead and start here with the sacks and 0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:28.720 break each of these plays down and try to figure 0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:31.200 out what went wrong and where it went wrong. The 0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:33.600 first one is the week two game at the Patriots. 0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:36.200 It's a third nine play where they bracket waddle from 0:16:36.200 --> 0:16:38.440 that three high safety look they ran the entire night 0:16:38.480 --> 0:16:41.680 against US, and Kyle Duggar runs down and just walls 0:16:41.720 --> 0:16:45.280 off Tyreek on a crosser and it puts Barrios, Smythe 0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:48.000 and Moster all in these one on one positions. They 0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:51.280 rolled the third safety entirely away from Bragxon Burris a 0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:53.680 side of the field, so he had nobody outside of him, 0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:57.080 and from from the numbers all the way out to 0:16:57.120 --> 0:16:59.280 the sideline, nobody over there. The whole top of the 0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:02.600 field vertically, which with Beckham that's open, with Barros that's 0:17:02.600 --> 0:17:05.600 not accessible, and then anything underneath that he wants, which 0:17:05.600 --> 0:17:07.679 you usually get by threatening deep with the speed, So 0:17:08.080 --> 0:17:11.080 it's like thirty yards of space and we are completely 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:12.080 erased on the play. 0:17:12.119 --> 0:17:12.879 You can't have that. 0:17:13.160 --> 0:17:15.160 The next third down sack is a game in Kansas 0:17:15.200 --> 0:17:17.040 City or in Germany, i should say, And it's a 0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:19.240 third and ten after a Claypool false start. But this 0:17:19.320 --> 0:17:21.639 is just Spagged being Spags gets a free round with 0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:24.199 the cat blitz. Good Night at the Jets in the 0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:27.479 third quarter, third and four, Austin Jackson gets destroyed by 0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:30.520 Bryce Huff. That sometimes happens, right. That was Austin's worst 0:17:30.520 --> 0:17:32.160 game of the year in my opinion. So it's three 0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:34.639 plays in one because of the receiver separation. We're going 0:17:34.680 --> 0:17:36.760 to do this whole thing here. The next one is 0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:39.000 a game home versus the Jets. A third and three. 0:17:39.119 --> 0:17:41.680 We tried to stress a corner route against a cover 0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:44.480 two blitz with Braxton and he just cannot get there 0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:45.000 fast enough. 0:17:45.040 --> 0:17:47.199 It's open, but we're not there. This is what I'm 0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:47.680 talking about. 0:17:47.720 --> 0:17:50.240 There's parts of the field we couldn't stress because we 0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:53.120 couldn't have that third option get to this space quick enough. 0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:56.119 So two for four I'm chalking up to not having 0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:58.800 Odell Beckham on the roster and Dallas against Dallas in 0:17:58.840 --> 0:18:00.960 the fourth quarter again it's a third and eight play 0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:03.720 are hot, which is Barrios just takes way too long 0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:05.400 to get there. By the time two is the top 0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:07.920 of his drop, he's still trying to get off the reroute. 0:18:07.920 --> 0:18:10.439
