The all twenty two to 0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:11.720 get to three and o with the victory over the 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:14.600 Buffalo Bills. Will peep the numbers from the game. We'll 0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:16.880 talk about snap counts and what they mean. All of 0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:19.039 that in a heck of a lot more plus hearing 0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:22.240 from head coach Mike McDaniel from the Baptist Health Studios 0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:26.880 inside the Baptist Health Training Complex. This is the Drive 0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:33.040 Time podcast. Let's go ahead and kick this thing off 0:01:33.080 --> 0:01:36.319 with the all twenty two review. As you can imagine, 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:40.200 the defensive tape was nearly three times as long as 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:42.440 the offense. I think it was twenty six minutes versus 0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:45.840 sixty minutes, UH defense versus offense. Let's go ahead and 0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:48.720 do the offensive side first. And I just thought the 0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:51.240 Bills had a plan and this would make sense, right 0:01:51.320 --> 0:01:53.200 given all the guys they were down. And this is 0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:56.600 also the benefit of having a pass rush that almost 0:01:56.640 --> 0:01:59.640 never blitzes, that can get pressure with the front four 0:02:00.200 --> 0:02:02.320 as you can play that zone coverage, sit back and 0:02:02.360 --> 0:02:04.760 prevent deep balls. And we look, we talked about the 0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:08.640 passer ratings allowed two quarterbacks since the start of and 0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:11.519 just one quarterback was over a hundred and their passer 0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:15.680 rating two had pass writing. So it's the best in 0:02:15.800 --> 0:02:18.800 two years against that Buffalo Bills defense. And that was 0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:21.440 with them doing a great job taking away Tyreek Hill 0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:24.400 and there afforded the opportunity to do that to bracket 0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:27.000 two sides of the field with Jalen and Tyreek, because 0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:30.800 they're so athletic at the linebacker position, who just both 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:34.600 exhales so much in coverage with their speed and athletic ability. 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:37.920 It's just crazy what Edmunds and Milano can do in 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:40.880 the middle of the field to occupy so much space. 0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:43.280 That's why this defense is so tough. It's why having 0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:45.120 those guys down in the second area was such a 0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:48.399 big opportunity for this Dolphins offense and team to get 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:51.520 some points and get the victory because catching it it's 0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:53.720 all about catching teams at the right time, right, and 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:55.359 you probably caught the Bills at a good time. They're 0:02:55.400 --> 0:02:57.160 despite the fact that the offense was cranking, and we 0:02:57.160 --> 0:02:59.359 saw how that played out. But that's for the second 0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:02.960 part of the podcast. Just so much fun design from 0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:05.760 the offense. The end around to Waddle. You see Smith 0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:09.079 split flow action, then he peels back the exact same 0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:11.880 way alec Engle did in the Baltimore game for the 0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:14.240 wheel route that he caught, where he peels back and 0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:16.800 it takes the edge of the Buffalo defense and they 0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:19.600 all suck into the formation and it gives that edge 0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:21.680 to Jalen Waddle and we know what he can do 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:24.160 once he has the ball in his hands off the edge. 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:27.400 And it's not just Derham Smith. On that play, you 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:29.160 have Rob Hunt pulled to the other side of the 0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:31.880 formation because you have to sell your look, right. You 0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:33.800 can't run something just to run it. You have to 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:35.720 sell it. You have to set it up and convince 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:37.760 the defense you're going to do it. And on that 0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:41.440 play you can see Tremaine Edmunds chase Rob Hunt and 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:44.840 flow directly at number sixty eight and fit the wrong gap, 0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:46.920 and then you have Derham Smith downfield with a great 0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:49.800 block on that particular play as well, Buffalo did have 0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:53.720 some success buttzing dbs against the run. That big negative play, 0:03:53.800 --> 0:03:55.720 the six yard loss that kind of was a drive 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:59.520 killer there on Uh I think it was. I think 0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:01.520 it was play number two of the second half. It 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:03.680 was just Teo Ron Johnson kind of pulling his best 0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.680 Brandon Jones where he timed up his blitz perfectly and 0:04:06.720 --> 0:04:09.200 gets in there for the impact play. Let's break down 0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:11.880 to his game. What say you right away? We get 0:04:11.920 --> 0:04:15.280 some high level stuff from tah in two areas. It's 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:18.120 a variation of smash which you have one route that 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.919 holds that cloud corner against Cover two and then you 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.880 sneak someone into that corner or as John Gruden once 0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:26.719 called at the turkey hole of that cover too coverage. 0:04:26.960 --> 0:04:29.359 And to ah as we've come to learn from this quarterback, 0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:31.560 and you go back to my evaluation of his Alabama 0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.960 tape and how great he was at that. If you 0:04:34.000 --> 0:04:36.880 have a chance, type in at wingfield NFL to ah 0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:39.800 L s U and go back and watch the L 0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:42.040 s U tape that I broke down. We're starting to 0:04:42.040 --> 0:04:43.839 see a lot of that in the NFL tape where 0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:47.760 he uses not just his eyes to occupy that cloud corner, 0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:50.920 that underneath corner. He strides towards him, He puts his 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:53.680 motion towards that guy and you see him take one 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:57.880 false step up and that was all to A needed 0:04:58.240 --> 0:05:00.480 to fit it in between the corner and the safety 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.200 twenty yards downfield. Now we didn't make the catch. It 0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:06.240 happens Alec will get that next time. But to U's 0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:10.080 ability to influence the defense on display from the first snap, 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:13.880 the speed out to the field to Trent sherfield after 0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:18.640 the forced fumble and recovery by Javon Holland and Melvin Ingram, 0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:22.760 Surefield runs that flat route from trips bunch and the 0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:26.600 most outside corner is leveraged in the opposite direction and 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:29.520 you see two take his eyes over there to see that, 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:31.880 and he separates the hands, which tells you the ball 0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:34.520 is coming out before Trent even turns his head back 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:39.400 to the quarterback. The timing continues to be super, super impressive. 0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:41.960 I mentioned the r p O on the recap pod, 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:44.599 it was even better on tape. There's a safety bearing 0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:46.960 down over the top and to us throw doesn't just 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:50.120 settle waddle in away from that danger. It's on the 0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:52.800 backside shoulder, which allows him to wheel out and run 0:05:52.839 --> 0:05:55.440 after the catch, and he did just that. I thought 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:57.479 the design of the next play was really cool, the 0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:00.400 same idea where the Bills take away Tyree over the 0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:03.719 middle and here comes Mike get sicky again, selling it 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:06.360 off of split flow action which looks like a run play, 0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:09.160 and he just ducks the blocker right into the vacancy 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:12.480 left of the linebackers who were keying on Tyreek. This 0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:15.640 offense is designed to give you a look that you 0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:17.760 think it's gonna be and then playoff of that. It's 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:21.159 the ultimate Mike McDaniel move. And then who boy the 0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:25.760 touchdown past the River Craigcraft. There's a diamond of Bills 0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:29.760 defenders against a trips bunch of Miami. So four verses 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:33.279 three and Mike comes off inside first and holds Tremaine 0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:37.440 Edmonds and then River follows him inside while Raheem widens 0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:40.520 it out to the other direction trying to displace. And 0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:43.039 this is where to go super high level again, like 0:06:43.080 --> 0:06:45.880 you have to anticipate these types of throws into these 0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:48.680 tight windows so well, and it's been a strong suit 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:51.080 of his game, a superpower in his game. One of 0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:53.159 the things that I think he's best in the league at, 0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:55.359 which is how you become you have to be you know, 0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:57.080 you have to be best at something the league. This 0:06:57.200 --> 0:06:58.960 is where I think two was gonna really shine. You 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.680 see the outside they're their best player in the secondaries 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:04.840 to Ron Johnson as well. Takes one step wide and 0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:07.320 that was all to Ah needed to see when he 0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:09.840 hits his back foot and to see that shot open 0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:12.640 up to it is throwing before Craycraft is even out 0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:14.680 of the break. The safety is driving on it and 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:20.040 it's just absolutely perfect throw and it had to be 0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:21.840 and it was I think the best part was the 0:07:21.920 --> 0:07:25.040 number four to tomar Hamlin is playing three yards deep 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:27.920 in the end zone and he's reacting to the route combination. 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:30.760 You actually see him take a step to get more 0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:33.720 with too potentially deal with the route to the to 0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:35.560 the corner. I think it was a back pylon route 0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:38.320 by Raheem Moster, and that one step was all the 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:41.119 space that Craig Kraft needed to make the catch. Really 0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:43.320 really good stuff from one strike up the band, Let's 0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:45.720 go Coogs, even though this weekend was brutal. On the 0:07:45.760 --> 0:07:48.080 next series, he gets away from a free runner to 0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:51.160 it does and throws on the move complete to Waddle 0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:54.320 and Armstead got beat this one time in the entire game. 0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:56.680 It was this one, but to a creates and Waddle 0:07:56.760 --> 0:07:59.320 comes back to help him move the chains. You're seeing 0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:00.880 a little bit of everything from to hear the big 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.560 arm or I should say the accuracy downfield, I'll be 0:08:03.600 --> 0:08:06.600 more blunt about that. Uh. The creativity off the spot 0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:09.720 and the anticipation, timing and accuracy, it's all. It's all 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:12.880 very very good. We talked about him settling Jalen Waddle down. 0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:15.000 He did the exact same thing to Tyreek on the 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:19.000 first play of the second half and absolute dart twenty 0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:22.320 yards with anticipation out of the break but not leading 0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:26.520 him into the safety. Beautiful, beautiful throw. The corner route 0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:29.000 to Waddle for thirty three was another example of smooth 0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:32.160 pocket awareness to slide away from some pressure and drive 0:08:32.200 --> 0:08:35.320 a throw sort of backing away from that pressure. And 0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:37.840 the Bills, man, they disguised their coverage so well in 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:40.439 this game, like these guys were coached up and communicated 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:42.280 it pretty well, I thought, as far as being so 0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:45.400 many backups in there, they play a quarters look or 0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:48.360 that corner is bumping like you don't usually do that, 0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:50.079 and he has to fall. I don't think you're allowed 0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:52.040 to do that, and he winds up falling off of 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:54.720 the coverage and getting depth and then waddle. You know, 0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:57.480 we'll talk about him here in one second on that route. 0:08:57.559 --> 0:08:59.360 Let's come back to that. Actually, let's do the third 0:08:59.360 --> 0:09:02.520 and twenty two first. It's an awesome concept to sit 0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:05.720 sure field down about five yards short of the sticks, 0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:07.960 right around field goal range, like just short of the 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:11.120 thirty yard line, to kind of occupy those backers because 0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:13.560 if they get depth, you can then just shoot that 0:09:13.640 --> 0:09:16.760 ball in there and take the three points. But they didn't. 0:09:17.000 --> 0:09:19.400 They closed on it, and then that gave the middle 0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:22.960 of the field open to Jalen Waddle. And on the 0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:25.199 other side of the formation, Tyreek is running a full 0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:28.439 speed clear out route that widens the field side safety. 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:30.920 He hammers it down right at the sticks, and that 0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:33.040 safety takes the cheese and takes a couple of steps 0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:36.400 that way and to his hands separate. When Jalen's at 0:09:36.400 --> 0:09:40.559 the thirty seven yard line, he's also literally on the 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:43.280 step to the flag to the seven route to the corner, 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:47.240 which widens the safety. So you've got both safeties just 0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:50.960 inside the numbers at the twenty seven yard line and 0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:53.920 Jalen's at the thirty seven he's still ten yards away, 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:56.760 and two is like, that's it. That's the spot. That 0:09:56.960 --> 0:10:00.959 is elite level anticipation to a drop sit right down 0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:04.200 the pipe at the eleven yard line. It's literally between 0:10:04.200 --> 0:10:05.880 the two hash marks where you would set up a 0:10:05.920 --> 0:10:09.439 field goal in your ideal position, right between the hashes. 0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:11.920 What a dime, What a time to drop that dime. 0:10:12.160 --> 0:10:14.720 How about these receivers man Tyreek and Jalen. The hitch 0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:17.040 that Tyreek caught and took a pretty good hit on 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:19.079 this is just the type of impact that he has 0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:23.440 in in one tangible snapshot where he presses a ten 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:27.920 yard cushion and still forces a retreat step by the corner. 0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:31.120 It's that speed, just tangibly showing up there and creating 0:10:31.120 --> 0:10:33.360 space for two to work with the effort on the 0:10:33.360 --> 0:10:35.160 clear out route. We talked about it, what a great 0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:37.680 effort that was from him, and it's just a great teammate, 0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:40.360 especially on a day where Buffalo was going to apply 0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:42.720 two men to him really throughout the course of the 0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:45.280 game and then back to Waddle. The pacing of his 0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:48.440 routes is sync up so well to too. His timing 0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:50.839 right now, it's so obvious they've played a lot of 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:53.959 football together. He knows when to throttle down, when to 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:56.640 hit the jets, how to set up his brakes, attack 0:10:56.800 --> 0:11:00.800 leverage relentlessly. His route running is so oh dang good. 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:03.000 The thirty three yard drive starter going back to that 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:05.800 corner route right before his forty five yarder which, by 0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:09.480 the way, doing the math in my head, seventy eight 0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:14.320 yards on one drive to a game winning drive. Talk 0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:17.640 about arriving the corner bails at the snap, talk about 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:20.679 that press coverage he gets out and so Jalen just 0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:25.120 goes to work really chasing that blind spot. What I 0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:27.240 mean by that is a cornerback can't defend his back. 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:29.960 Jalen sees him bail and he goes inside to that 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:32.720 blind spot because he has or outside leverage. And then 0:11:32.720 --> 0:11:34.960 the minute he flips the hips, that's when you flip 0:11:35.040 --> 0:11:37.280 them back yourself and go to the corner, and that 0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:39.520 turns him goes to the post, I should say, and 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:42.040 that turns him around. And what that was a bad 0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:44.800 Chris Burman, He's right back to the outside. It's spin 0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:46.760 cycle man. That's what he did. And then the route 0:11:46.760 --> 0:11:49.199 on the copper route, we talked about that the post 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:51.600 or the corner to the post Chef's kiss man. The 0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:54.120 way he stayed vertical after his jab step to the 0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:56.760 corner and then didn't like go straight to the post. 0:11:56.840 --> 0:12:00.600 He kind of stayed inside to stay in that cornerbacks 0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:02.600 like to keep him in phase so that he could 0:12:02.640 --> 0:12:04.960 run further away from him. Does that make sense, like, 0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:08.240 rather than take the advantage of the distance you already created, 0:12:08.559 --> 0:12:10.760 stay tight so that that corner thinks he can stay 0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:12.920 tight with you, but then you can separate more from 0:12:12.920 --> 0:12:16.240 that point. It's elite level processing like that. That makes 0:12:16.280 --> 0:12:18.720 this guy an elite player on top of his elite 0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:23.160 level start stoppability. What a game for Jalen Waddle. What 0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:25.520 a game, and what a year so far for Toron Armstead. 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:28.320 The way he shortens the runway for Von Miller to 0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:31.560 eliminate those speed rushes, those ghost rushes. The way he 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:35.680 bends that corner. He just continuously redirected Von Miller's rush 0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:38.160 path right around two, and we saw that ghost move 0:12:38.200 --> 0:12:40.320 against the Rams and Joe Noteboom where he would just 0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:43.120 dummy a punch and then whoop dip right under him 0:12:43.280 --> 0:12:45.440 to Ron would go shorten that track and then just 0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:48.760 get the quick kind of pivot step or the drop 0:12:48.800 --> 0:12:51.160 step to open up and run him around the arc. 0:12:51.440 --> 0:12:54.280 It was elite stuff from Toron Armstead. The first run 0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:57.000 of the game, Chase Edmonds, he washes down the four 0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:59.959 eye technique, which is on the inside shoulder of Toron, 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:01.880 so that means it's a reach block right, which is 0:13:01.920 --> 0:13:03.840 one of the toughest blocks you can make, and takes 0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:07.600 him across the entire formation before pancaking him. Then he's 0:13:07.600 --> 0:13:11.640 stone walled. Viller, Our Miller Viller, Detective Von Miller on 0:13:11.679 --> 0:13:14.720 the sherefield completion after the fumble that we got down 0:13:14.760 --> 0:13:17.280 to the six yard line. Their pressure is right into 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:19.520 his face in the direction of the past, and he 0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:22.560 speeds up his drop to find the landmark to get 0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:24.920 that anchor right in front of his quarterback. And you 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:27.160 see Miller, who has a speed rush speed to power 0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:31.599 completely thwarted. We're talking, I don't know. This tape is 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:34.280 really good man. The completion of Tyreek where he takes 0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:36.440 a big hit afterwards once again goes out there and 0:13:36.440 --> 0:13:39.240 cuts down that runway on Vaughan and realizes that he 0:13:39.280 --> 0:13:42.559 actually lost the angle, but he has recovery ability to 0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:46.040 quickly shuffle back and get depth off of the pass 0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:49.080 rush landmark there. It's been teaching tape through three weeks 0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:52.520 here for Toron Armstead. He's a hell of a football player, 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:56.120 just like we expected. So is Connor Williams. He just 0:13:56.200 --> 0:13:57.920 moves guys in the running game man gets him out 0:13:57.960 --> 0:13:59.960 of their gap. Go look at the first Edmonds touched 0:14:00.000 --> 0:14:02.560 and that is some kind of play by Williams. I 0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:04.520 haven't seen a play like a like that from a 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:06.840 Dolphin center since Mike Pouncey was here. And then our 0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:09.839 big runs consistently. You just see fifty eight ceiling off 0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:11.880 where he's the first man off the snap and just 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:15.160 wall somebody off. But even more than that, like all 0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:17.320 you gotta do is wall that off. But sometimes he 0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:19.520 gets a movement, which is just a bonus on those plays. 0:14:19.840 --> 0:14:22.280 Rob Hunt had two great anchor reps back to back 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:25.720 against Tim Settle and his big behind Raheem's longest run 0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:29.040 came behind Rob clearing out a man with significant punch. 0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:31.440 He was excellent again. And then the push that he 0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:34.200 and Connor got on the double team on the second 0:14:34.320 --> 0:14:37.240 Edmond's touchdown. Man, I might have been able to score 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:39.120 on that play, not really, but I mean you get 0:14:39.160 --> 0:14:42.840 what I'm saying. And then what else that was my 0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:45.760 offensive line work. Greg Little had some great work on 0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:48.200 the second Edmond's touch on the seal that five technique, 0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:50.640 a huge block in a big moment, but also on 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:53.560 the uh second shot on the first drive, he got 0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:56.160 beat inside by a spin move on von Miller. It's 0:14:56.200 --> 0:14:58.040 just too bad because we had guys open on that 0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:00.600 play sherfield and over route for him on an option 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:02.560 out route. We had a miss block on too. Ron 0:15:02.640 --> 0:15:04.840 Johnson late in the game. The third on a third 0:15:04.840 --> 0:15:06.720 down that could have sprung him as well. One of 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:08.880 those instances we heard about where the defense where there 0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:11.400 was lanes but one miss block kind of did us in. 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:13.800 And then the running backs Chase. I love his change 0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:16.480 of direction that toss play to run inside where he 0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:19.160 gets on that track and gets to high speed quickly. 0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:21.800 I love that look, and I continue to be impressed 0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:24.520 by Raheem most starts feet. Matt Mulano chopped him down 0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:26.760 twice on one on one situations in the hole that 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:28.800 I thought Raheem had a chance to spring a big one. 0:15:29.000 --> 0:15:30.920 I trust that next time he'll do that. But man, 0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:33.080 what a play by Matt Mulano on those couple of 0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:35.520 snaps there against Rheem Moster. All rightlet's go ahead and 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:38.040 take our first break here on the podcast. We'll come 0:15:38.040 --> 0:15:39.920 back on the other side and do the defensive side 0:15:39.920 --> 0:15:42.320 of the football. That's next kind of the Drift Time Podcast, 0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:45.000 your host Travis Wingfield, brought to you by Auto Nation, 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:52.120 back here on a turn the page Tuesday edition of 0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:54.960 the Drift Time Podcast, putting this game to bed, and 0:15:55.000 --> 0:15:58.680 we continue right here with a defensive All twenty two review. 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:02.240 I thought the plan was so good. They just never 0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:04.880 busted a coverage to allow the Bills to get vertical 0:16:04.920 --> 0:16:08.760 on them. They asked so much of these speedy linebackers, 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:12.320 this deep linebacker room in terms of playing coverage, keeping 0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:15.640 your eyes on Alan, the occasional pass rush. Real big 0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:18.440 tip of the cap to coach Campanelli and Tyrone mackenzie 0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:21.000 for the job those guys did, and just the plan 0:16:21.120 --> 0:16:24.640 in general from you know, Josh Boyer and the entire 0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:28.280 staff to have those guys mixed between getting depth coming 0:16:28.320 --> 0:16:31.040 up to the line. Alan made so many plays, but 0:16:31.160 --> 0:16:33.960 they just kept coming on the strip. Sacked by Javon 0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:36.840 Halloween broke that down on the podcast on Monday. But 0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:40.400 you have Holland and Baker communicating signals so well they 0:16:40.440 --> 0:16:43.080 wind up bringing eight which speaks very highly of the 0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:46.400 coverage that exaviing Howard, Nick Needham and Kater co who 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:49.080 had on that back end because a mistake there with 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:52.000 eight man rush and zero coverage that could be eighty 0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:56.040 eight yards of the house. Instead, you've got really good coverage. 0:16:56.280 --> 0:16:58.880 Every route is capped, everyone's on top of the route 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:01.880 and driving on their breaks out of the stem. The 0:17:01.880 --> 0:17:04.159 beautiful part of all the pre snap checking is that 0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:07.600 Alan knows that Brandon Jones is coming off that strong 0:17:07.680 --> 0:17:10.439 side and he actually diverts his drop to kind of 0:17:10.440 --> 0:17:13.560 fade away from it. But the problem is Javon comes 0:17:13.600 --> 0:17:16.640 to and runs right around both Dion Dawkins and Devin 0:17:16.760 --> 0:17:19.840 Singletary and puts a hand on the football, which as 0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:22.760 a pass rusher, sacks are great, but getting the ball 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.240 out that's a different ball game. Just a great play 0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:28.720 all around. Christian Wilkins is off to an all Pro start. 0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:33.280 He is an incredible, incredible player. Starts off very early 0:17:33.280 --> 0:17:36.679 with a quick crossover step to get right on Josh 0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:39.679 Allen instantly, which he evaded like he does, but just 0:17:39.760 --> 0:17:42.240 the the fake rush to the right and then cross 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:43.679 order back to the left to kind of get the 0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:48.600 offensive lineman off balance and gain the momentum advantage is game. 0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:51.200 And the way he surfs down the line on those 0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:54.000 stretch runs to the outside is so damn good. He 0:17:54.080 --> 0:17:57.560 consistently disengages and makes the play on those plays, and 0:17:57.600 --> 0:18:00.560 then as arsenal of pass rush moves, it continues to 0:18:00.600 --> 0:18:03.399 get better every single year. He put a pressure on 0:18:03.480 --> 0:18:06.200 Alan in the second quarter in the red zone, where 0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:09.520 he used his outside hand and kind of threw that 0:18:09.560 --> 0:18:13.119 thing across the guard's body on the onto the inside shoulder. 0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:15.880 Then he rolls the outside part of his body under 0:18:15.880 --> 0:18:19.680 that block with a crossover step. It's like rare, rare 0:18:19.800 --> 0:18:23.240 balance with strength and heavy hands. He gets better every year, 0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:26.439 every game. And he took on double team after double 0:18:26.480 --> 0:18:30.520 team after double team and was still productive in this game, 0:18:31.320 --> 0:18:33.960 having one hell of a season. Melvin Ingram is a 0:18:33.960 --> 0:18:37.200 block destroyer. Whether it's physically running through a blocker or 0:18:37.280 --> 0:18:40.240 taking quick angles to get around them, he consistently does it. 0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:43.120 His first stack was a pretty crazy move, a little 0:18:43.200 --> 0:18:45.679 dummy step to the inside, a jab step back to 0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:48.679 the outside, back in crossing face when he gets the 0:18:48.720 --> 0:18:51.639 tackle to overset up field and that gives him a 0:18:51.720 --> 0:18:55.400 bee line to Josh Allen. But I would not overlook 0:18:55.480 --> 0:18:58.160 the importance of finishing that sack. He's a tough guy 0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:00.919 to get to the ground, and Melvin Ingram did it. Then. 0:19:00.960 --> 0:19:02.960 I talked about the effort on the final drive on 0:19:03.040 --> 0:19:05.600 every single platform so far, but I have to do 0:19:05.640 --> 0:19:10.000 it again because this entire defense was so good. Emmanuel 0:19:10.000 --> 0:19:13.159 Ogball was so good. He kept winning again and again. 0:19:13.200 --> 0:19:16.080 You can see the conditioning seventy plus snaps in this game, 0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:18.560 and he gives you that effort down in and down out. 0:19:18.760 --> 0:19:21.080 There were so many snaps where they just didn't have 0:19:21.160 --> 0:19:23.399 an answer for what he was doing. And he was 0:19:23.440 --> 0:19:26.480 winning inside, which is just kind of how you do 0:19:26.560 --> 0:19:28.480 it against Alan, like if you were run around the 0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:30.959 arc on the outside. That allows him to step up 0:19:30.960 --> 0:19:33.440 and scramble and make big plays and drop that shoulder 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:36.520 and just do what he does. So those direct shots 0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:41.800
