WEBVTT - Drive Time: Dolphins Jets Week 18 Preview 0:00:08.440 --> 0:00:12.600 What is up, Dolphans And welcome to the Draft Time Podcast. 0:00:12.720 --> 0:00:16.880 I am your host, Travis Wingfield and on today's shore show, 0:00:16.960 --> 0:00:19.200 let's do it one more time for the regular season. 0:00:19.280 --> 0:00:21.760 Hopefully we have one more of these next week. Will 0:00:21.800 --> 0:00:23.759 preve you the biggest game of the season against the 0:00:23.760 --> 0:00:25.400 New York Jets, tell you the difference and what to 0:00:25.520 --> 0:00:27.960 expect depending on which quarterback plays, the big matchups, the 0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:31.000 keys to victory, and much much more, including plenty of 0:00:31.120 --> 0:00:34.199 Jets hate from the Baptist heillth Studios inside the Baptist 0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:35.239 Health Training Complex. 0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:38.239 This is the Draft Time Podcast. 0:00:38.720 --> 0:00:54.240 Guess the goddamn Jets. 0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:57.520 The Jets killed Carl and I think if Carl were 0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:00.760 still kicking this season definitely would have killed Carl for 0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:03.160 the New York Jets. What an absolute tire fire it's 0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:06.520 been for the Jets who all off season, all summer 0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:08.560 long for the last two years. We finally got our 0:01:08.600 --> 0:01:11.360 elite quarterback and just wait until he plays a full 0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:14.080 season and we're gonna be the best team in the world. 0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:16.680 And I'm Joey Jets and it's gonna be awesome. And 0:01:16.720 --> 0:01:19.520 they're four and twelve, and they're four and twelve and 0:01:19.600 --> 0:01:21.880 the Dolphins will go up there and try to make 0:01:21.920 --> 0:01:24.919 it four and thirteen from Metli Stadium, Week number eighteen 0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:27.880 to four to twenty five kickoff on Fox. It's supposed 0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:30.600 to be thirty four degrees at kickoff into the twenties 0:01:30.640 --> 0:01:33.920 at nightfall, thirteen mile prior wins, but gust up to 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:39.600 twenty five miles prior no precipitation. And just to you know, 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:43.640 I'm I'm kind of ready for off season mode, recording 0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:46.960 this podcast before all the playoff games kickoff today here 0:01:47.000 --> 0:01:50.280 on Wednesday. Happy New Year everybody out there in Dolphins Land. 0:01:50.640 --> 0:01:53.279 And like watching Penn State last night and seeing Tyler 0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:55.240 Warren do his thing, Like what a fun first round 0:01:55.280 --> 0:01:57.160 pick he would be. We're gonna get a look at 0:01:57.200 --> 0:01:59.760 you know, Tesz Johnson today in this game, and for 0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:02.160 the the Organ wide receiver. We're gonna get a look 0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:04.480 at Xavier watch the Notre Dame safety. We're gonna get 0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:07.120 a look at Malachi Starks, the Georgia's safety. We're gonna 0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:09.480 get a look at Josh Connery, the Oregon tackle. Like 0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:12.440 there is gonna be a lot of fun scouting to watch, 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:14.680 and part of me is like already into that world. 0:02:14.680 --> 0:02:16.280 And just saying like, let's go ahead and get to 0:02:16.280 --> 0:02:18.560 twenty twenty five, because I think this team with a 0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:21.440 soft reboot, hopefully with better health. Even though we say 0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:23.360 that every single year and it has to they have 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:25.560 to find a way to address that. I feel like 0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:29.200 twenty twenty five, especially off the heels of yesterday's podcast 0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:32.240 where I very optimistically painted a picture of how this 0:02:32.280 --> 0:02:34.800 team could be thirteen and three. I again, I know 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:37.440 that's not a realistic situation because you could point to 0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:38.799 the Jets game as a game they should have lost. 0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:41.200 If Vante Adams does not go out of bounds before 0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:43.600 that fourth quarter field goal at the end, the Dolphins 0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:46.640 lose that game. So I understand that perspective. But I 0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:48.880 just think that next year, with the schedule the way 0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:50.959 it plays out, like, I think Miami's gonna be in 0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:53.359 a good spot next year, even if they get into 0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:54.840 the playoffs with the win here today. 0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:55.880 But that's or on Sunday. 0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:58.359 But that's why I'm kind of in this mode because 0:02:58.440 --> 0:03:00.919 isn't it just so fitting for the way this year 0:03:00.960 --> 0:03:03.520 has gone with all of the trials and tribulations of 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:07.120 your injuries, of your quarterback availability, of the big games 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:10.080 of the cold weather when he was down back in September. 0:03:10.280 --> 0:03:12.120 All the games that you've been watching around the league, 0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:14.480 hoping for the teams that you're competing with to lose games, 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:16.639 and they find ways to win those games. With four 0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.120 interceptions in those games and missfield goals from the opposition 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:22.639 in those games, it just feels so fitting that your 0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:25.679 playoff hopes are going to likely come down to I 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:26.560 don't even know how to say. 0:03:26.639 --> 0:03:30.040 Is it Chris like Ola con or ola something? I 0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:30.480 don't know. 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:32.679 He's going to probably play snap for the Chiefs on 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:34.760 Sunday in place of Carson Wentz, who probably plays the 0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:37.280 first half of that game or so, and the Broncos 0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:38.960 are ten point favorites, and those are just games that 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:42.600 you don't typically lose in the NFL. However, the Colts 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:45.320 did lose to the Giants as double digit favorites in 0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:47.520 that game, so we'll see. I think it was like 0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:48.960 seven and a half, but either way, you get the 0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:50.920 whole point. Let's go ahead and break this game down. 0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:53.240 I'm just kind of experiencing a bit of an existential 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.560 crisis on what's going to happen on Sundays. I think 0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:57.560 mine's going to take care of business, as we'll predict 0:03:57.600 --> 0:03:59.200 here in a second, and I don't think they'll get 0:03:59.200 --> 0:03:59.920 the help they need. 0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:00.840 We shall see. 0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:03.880 So this has to be no check that this is 0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:07.080 definitely the most disappointing team in the NFL this year, 0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:10.680 right Super Bowl. Picked by so many at least at minimum, 0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:13.400 battling for the AFC East title with the Dolphins and 0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:13.880 the Bills. 0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:15.800 They have their quarterback start every game. 0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:18.159 Yet here they are at four and twelve, coming off 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.880 the lowest QBR game in a game this season, one 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.679 point two for Rogers. He exits the game at forty 0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:26.960 to nothing. They score fourteen points with Tyrod Taylor. DJ 0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:29.680 Reid said last week he's excited to get to free agency. 0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:31.839 You're not going to see sauce Gardner in this game. 0:04:31.880 --> 0:04:34.039 I imagine who had his hamstring flare up and pulled 0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:36.800 himself out of the game for the second consecutive game. 0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:39.840 In fact, somebody on a social media platform, I think 0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:42.479 it was Instagram, had commented on how or T Higgins 0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:46.120 like posted? Rather sauce Gardner posted a T Higgins graphic 0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:48.520 and said pay that man, and somebody responded to him 0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:49.960 and said tell him to come to the Jets, and 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:51.840 Sauce replied and said, I will not be doing that. 0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:54.359 So things are peachy for the New York Jets. Do 0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:56.920 they play DJ Reid after saying he basically wants out 0:04:57.080 --> 0:04:58.000 after this last game. 0:04:58.000 --> 0:04:58.359 I don't know. 0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:00.120 I don't know how you can after that comment, but 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:01.720 you guys know the story. They bought him out in 0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:04.040 twenty twenty, won a couple of games down the stretch 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:05.800 that year with Adam Gase. That pushes them off the 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:09.000 Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes and they wind up with not that 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.320 particular looking bust at the moment, but a bust in 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:13.040 Zach Wilson, who's one of the biggest bus in the 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:15.680 history of the league. But he produced a bunch of 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:17.920 seven and eight win teams playing one of the lowest 0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.880 EPA passing marks in the NFL every single year when 0:05:20.880 --> 0:05:23.760 he started. They get their elite quarterback back and it 0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:26.080 crashes and burns in ways they could not have imagined. 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:27.960 You know how this team was built. It's like doing 0:05:28.040 --> 0:05:28.480 the Bills. 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:30.520 You just don't need a refresher catching up on this 0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:33.120 team until next year. We'll do a deep dive on 0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:35.240 this squad like we did the Patriots when they change 0:05:35.240 --> 0:05:37.960 their head coach and GM and probably a quarterback as well, 0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:41.720 their offense. I don't think that it's kind of what 0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:43.479 we thought it was going to be. I think a 0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:46.320 major contributing factor to the Jets struggles has been the 0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:49.039 inability to run the football, paired with an offense that 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:51.440 takes a lot of time and reps to really perfect. 0:05:51.760 --> 0:05:53.279 I mean, let's call it what it is. It's the 0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:54.400 Aaron Rodgers offense. 0:05:54.440 --> 0:05:57.600 A series of high level site adjustments that is communicated 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:01.240 through hand signals and familiarity. Hence why I think the 0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:03.360 belief was that DeVante Adams would come in and make 0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:06.719 a major impact. And Adams beat us like a drum 0:06:06.720 --> 0:06:09.680 in that game back in Week fourteen, And now they 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:11.760 will have to go into that game without Kendall Fuller 0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:13.920 and hope to stop those receivers again. But I think 0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:15.960 that you've seen the lack of chemistry, even as recently 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:18.880 as last week. There was a third down play where 0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:21.320 Rogers threw the ball at the feet of Tyler Conklin 0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:24.320 and then did that quarterback thing where you put your 0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:26.400 palm out in your motion, like you know, cut this way, 0:06:26.640 --> 0:06:28.880 and it's like, even if he was in the wrong spot, 0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:33.440 like having those issues persist in Week seventeen is emblematic 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:36.200 of the bigger issue. They have a lot of options 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:38.880 and the aforementioned side adjustments. I just don't think that 0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:42.360 ever clicked, especially with the play caller change. But in honesty, 0:06:42.640 --> 0:06:45.800 it's always been Aaron Rodgers pulling the strings. So you 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:48.720 get a lot of routes back to the quarterback, you know, stationary, 0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:50.680 stagnant routes. I think a lot of the belief is 0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:53.400 that Aaron will see it and play on time, and 0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:55.480 then if it's not there, there's just not a lot 0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:58.000 of ability to create because well, they have to keep 0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:01.120 him healthy. He's off an Achilles injury, he's forty years old. 0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:03.760 But also just the design of the offense now that 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:07.080 was highly effective against US back in Week fourteen, right 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:09.160 his best game of the season. I tend to think 0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:10.880 the Dolphins defense will have a bit of a bone 0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:13.840 to pick with that, especially Coach Weaver wanting to revert 0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:15.880 the results of that day in terms of the Jets 0:07:15.960 --> 0:07:18.720 offensive success, and I really feel confident they'll find a 0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:21.920 way to do that By structure, it's seventy percent eleven personnel, 0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:25.360 twenty percent twelve personnel. They do some thirteen, some twenty one, 0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:28.480 but it's a pretty common NFL deployment. They've been substantially 0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:31.240 better versus zone than man coverage, and I think that 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.280 goes back to the side adjustment comments we talked about, 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:35.440 where it's easier to spot throw than it is to 0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:38.880 throw guys open when you're playing against own coverage, especially 0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:41.200 with or rather, I should say, that kind of flies 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:43.360 in the face of the skills toucher receivers have and 0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:46.200 all those back shoulder balls. But it's just a mess. 0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:48.200 To be perfectly frank with you, guys, how do you 0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:49.840 attack it? The first key is going to be a 0:07:49.840 --> 0:07:52.320 stop their early down running game, and frankly, that's what 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:54.600 most teams have done against them. And they'll mix it 0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:57.400 up with gap and zone and different variations of zone, 0:07:57.400 --> 0:07:59.440 but man, they just struggle with to the point of attack, 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:02.280 particularly off the edge. They got a couple of backup 0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:04.640 tackles playing right now. I think you can accomplish this 0:08:04.680 --> 0:08:06.640 by playing a lot of bass but also getting your 0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:09.320 dogs Sealer and Campbell on the edge. They've done that 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:12.160 so many times this year, playing five techniques and defensive 0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:12.880 end positions. 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:14.800 I think this is a game where they could replicate that. 0:08:14.880 --> 0:08:17.560 I also would call on a mix of man coverage 0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:19.960 with Ramsey and Storm, who I thought had his best 0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:22.000 game of the year against the Browns, and of course 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:25.360 the classic Weaver blitz and sim pressure looks and fire zones. 0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:28.280 They've struggled to communicate upfront from what I've seen, especially 0:08:28.320 --> 0:08:31.760 with Olufashanu down. I do think that their interior offensive 0:08:31.760 --> 0:08:34.400 line is very good. But if you can create trouble 0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:37.000 in the communication and use your speed off the edge, 0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:38.679 I think you can get some double clutches and then 0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:39.840 once you collapse the pocket. 0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:41.920 Rogers is not going to run around and create. 0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:44.640 If you win enough on the early downs, you'll get 0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:47.520 your third down opportunities in plenty of sacks in those positions. 0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:50.160 The Big Three versus the Jets offense again Number one, 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:53.040 shut down, early down running game. So the Jets running 0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:56.559 offense that's not super dissimilar to ours in terms of 0:08:56.600 --> 0:08:58.719 how they want to start and then unfold things from there. 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:01.880 Lots of the outside zone stresses. You're conditioning your ability 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:04.360 to set edges off the corners and then unfurl the 0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:07.080 passing game from there with misdirection, play action boot legs 0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:09.760 all that stuff, but they have struggled with that for 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:13.000 a handful of reasons. First, they'll have Breeze Hall back 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:14.680 in this game after he didn't play in Week fourteen. 0:09:14.720 --> 0:09:20.920 But there's not many players that I think are substantially 0:09:20.920 --> 0:09:23.040 worse than their perception, and maybe this is not the 0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:26.160 case for Jets fans than Breeze Hall. Like he's slow, 0:09:26.559 --> 0:09:29.720 he doesn't really create that much, and they just can't 0:09:29.760 --> 0:09:31.120 run the ball off the edge. I think it's because 0:09:31.120 --> 0:09:33.200 they don't have enough speed at running back and their 0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:36.120 why position is an absolute tire fire there. I mentioned 0:09:36.160 --> 0:09:39.080 this on the podcast back in week fourteen. Joe Blewett, 0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:41.320 who I used to do podcasts with before I even 0:09:41.360 --> 0:09:45.559 got any popularity on social media, does film breakdowns, and 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:47.800 he had a breakdown about I forget the tight end's name, 0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:50.439 but there was multiple tight ends that consistently just lose 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:52.199 their leverage in the blocking game and they can't run 0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:54.560 the ball off the edge. What's cut down the entire 0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:57.319 origin of this Rogers led offense. And then you have 0:09:57.360 --> 0:10:00.640 an offensive line that I think has play better than 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:02.480 they have in the past, but with injuries off the 0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:05.600 corner and those aforementioned issues that they haven't had a 0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:08.319 chance to really settle and gel in together, aside from 0:10:08.360 --> 0:10:10.560 the interior three who've played most of the year together. 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:13.520 But it's just so important upfront to have that continuity, 0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:16.200 and I think I might say it's as important, maybe 0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:18.960 more important than the collection of individual talent. They've had 0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:21.200 to rotate guys through. You know, starting lineup on Sunday 0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:24.120 and Buffalo was Max Mitchell, John Simpson, Joe Tipman, Elijah 0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:27.000 Vera Tucker and Morgan Moses. The final part of the 0:10:27.040 --> 0:10:29.360 run game struggle is the consequence of having again a 0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:32.200 forty one year old quarterback off major surgery. That's he's 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:33.559 just not going to move around a lot back there, 0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:36.240 and the ability to bootleg off those outside zones and 0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:39.640 your need to contain backside it's just not as as 0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:41.720 strong as it used to be against this quarterback. So 0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:43.800 when I look at the Fins, I think about getting 0:10:43.800 --> 0:10:45.720 Seeler and Campbell on the edge to beat up their 0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:50.400 why and left tackle right tackle combination put pressure on Rogers' backside, 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:52.559 and then the speed of Chop off their right tackle 0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:56.520 Morgan Moses, who is a good player, but chop is 0:10:56.760 --> 0:11:00.400 his strength is Morgan Mogus's weakness is the speed and 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:00.920 the ability to. 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:02.040 Get out to the corner. So I think that he's 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:02.880 gonna have a big game. 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:04.679 I think that impacts the way they help on him, 0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:07.040 which creates big chances for Zach Seedler as well. And 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:09.080 even off the other edge, they could slide protection away 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:11.960 from that and you get Max Mitchell on even an 0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:16.160 Emmanuel Ogba or you know whoever they want to put 0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:17.800 out there, Quentin Bell, like, I think you can beat 0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:20.280 that guy. So big Chop, big Sealer game key number 0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:22.800 two Garrett Wilson and DeVante Adams, that's just the key. 0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:24.320 I mean, I know their offense has been up and 0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:26.679 down and struggled, but you can pull up individual reps 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:29.320 and see, oh yeah, there's the thinking there. Those are 0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:32.920 really good receivers at in flight adjustments. Garrett Wilson's a 0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:35.520 very good release package and knows how to cross face 0:11:35.559 --> 0:11:37.360 and put guys in the blind spot in the blender, 0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:40.000 so to speak. And Rogers has no problems throwing those 0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:42.520 guys open. They both went off in that game back 0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:44.880 in Week fourteen, but their best play has been the go, 0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:47.480 the comeback and the back shoulder conversion. Option, which is 0:11:47.480 --> 0:11:49.760 all the same route that you can change on the fly, 0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:53.160 but you can, you know, you play them without safety 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:54.680 help and they'll take advantage of that. We saw it 0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:56.720 back in the in the Week fourteen game. They will 0:11:56.720 --> 0:11:59.640 go after that matchup usually the boundary and they'll show 0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:02.200 the article and then once the cornerback gets out of phase, 0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:04.360 Rogers is gonna rip that thing right to the back shoulder. 0:12:04.480 --> 0:12:06.800 So it's imperative for Ramsey to play physically up the 0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:09.360 stem and try to disrupt that for Storm to get 0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:11.400 in position to be able to make plays. I imagine 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:13.200 you'll get some help for Storm Duck. And then the 0:12:13.200 --> 0:12:15.000 interior with cater co who who kind of I thought 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:17.800 had his worst game communication wise against the Jets. 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:19.040 They had really all year. 0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:21.280 I have to imagine the Jets are looking at our 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:23.640 lineup and trying to find ways to get their vets 0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:24.360 on the rookie. Right. 0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:25.280 That's how this league goes. 0:12:25.520 --> 0:12:28.040 You're gonna see Jalen Ramsey, You're gonna see cater coo 0:12:28.080 --> 0:12:29.960 who You're gonna see Storm Duck. Where's the ball going? 0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:32.200 It's going to Storm Duck most of the time. To 0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:34.559 you know, put together a good tape for us here 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:36.120 for storm Duck to give you some helpe going into 0:12:36.120 --> 0:12:38.480 the off season about his long term future, but also, hey, 0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:40.000 help let's get to nine and eight and possibly a 0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:43.080 playoff Berth. So, I think it's important to play with 0:12:43.120 --> 0:12:46.000 the mindset of disruption at the line of scrimmage and 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:49.079 remain physical without getting grabby down the stem. You cannot 0:12:49.120 --> 0:12:51.520 give these guys free access. They have struggle with timing 0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:54.040 all year long. Don't let them find it by playing 0:12:54.080 --> 0:12:56.920 passive and letting them dictate the terms offensively. If you 0:12:57.000 --> 0:12:58.880 do that with what I discussed in these earlier points, 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:00.440 I think you free up my ability to create some 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:03.120 splash plays, to get some takeaways, give that offense some 0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:05.600 short fields, and take control of this game. Now what 0:13:05.679 --> 0:13:08.120 you definitely need because the cornerbacks have done their job 0:13:08.160 --> 0:13:09.839 for the most part this year, but you need better 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:12.520 safety play. It's been bad all year, like the whole 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:14.839 season has been bad, and they're gonna have to find 0:13:14.880 --> 0:13:17.080 a way to better communicate on the back end against 0:13:17.120 --> 0:13:19.440 the Jets, because that's where the communication or the breakdowns 0:13:19.440 --> 0:13:22.120 happened through communication in that game, and that was you know, 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:25.000 Javon was I think nursing an injury at that point, 0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:27.360 and Jordan Poyer was going through something and they weren't 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:29.720 practicing together, and they had different cornerbacks, and Kendall Fuller 0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:32.080 was up and then was down them back up, and yeah, 0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:34.360 I just think that you have to have much much 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:36.760 better safety play than what Miami has gotten to stop 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.280 an offense that has receivers like these two guys. Let's 0:13:39.280 --> 0:13:40.800 go ahead and take our first break rate there, come 0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:42.720 back and do the third key against the Jets offense. 0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:44.719 We'll do all the keys against the Dolphins or the 0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:47.360 Jets defense. Rather, we'll pick the game all that stuff. 0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:50.360 Draft Time Podcast, your host Travis Wingfield, brought to you 0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:56.720 by Auto Nation. Two keys against the Jets offense. In 0:13:56.800 --> 0:13:59.520 the books, the third key is a key against any 0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:03.160 quarterback you'll ever face, especially a forty one year old 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:04.400 old man. 0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:05.840 Come after the quarterback. 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:08.079 So this can be tricky because on one hand, Rogers 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:10.600 has been blitzed thirty percent of his dropbacks, but he's 0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:13.120 throwing nine picks or rather nine touchdowns I should say, 0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:15.400 and two picks against it. But it does come with 0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:18.760 a one point six yard drop in pertempt or average 0:14:18.800 --> 0:14:21.360 per attempt seven point one to five and a half, 0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:24.320 and when not blitzed, he's throwing eight picks, which means 0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:26.680 more guys than coverage. Right, But here's why I think 0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:28.440 that's the case. And when I watch the tape, it 0:14:28.480 --> 0:14:31.360 backs this up for me. When you hit Rogers and 0:14:31.440 --> 0:14:34.200 make him feel you early, the ball starts coming out 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:37.000 faster and faster, and I just don't think he wants 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:40.800 to get punishment in an NFL game anymore, especially for 0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:42.960 a four and twelve team. Granted the ability to get 0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:45.520 the ball out hot as a strength of his versus 0:14:45.520 --> 0:14:47.800 the blitz. He has a two point twenty nine second 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:50.440 time to throw not blitzed, it's two point seven to eight. 0:14:50.680 --> 0:14:52.440 And if you look around the league and here are 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:54.760 the top original starters in terms of top time to throw, 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.640 it's tu It's Mayfield, it's Jayden Daniels, It's Joe Burrow, 0:14:57.720 --> 0:15:00.400 four of the best processors in the entire league. Aaron 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:02.600 Rodgers is in that category for the most part as well. 0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:08.160 But what made Rogers was that elite processing skill, right, 0:15:08.480 --> 0:15:10.760 but also being one of the great play extenders in 0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:12.520 the history of the league and one of the guys 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:14.120 that can burn you out of the pocket more than 0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:15.200 anybody else ever has. 0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:16.400 That's not him anymore. 0:15:16.560 --> 0:15:18.600 So when I watch that tape, I see him play 0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:21.120 pretty comfortable and confident. But man, the moment you start 0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:23.440 putting him on the ground, the ball starts coming out 0:15:23.480 --> 0:15:26.480 even faster. And in this game, probably his last with 0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:28.880 the Jets, where I think his only motivation to play 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:31.160 in this game is to get five hundred touchdowns. I 0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:33.560 think if he had thrown a touchdown against the Bills, 0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:35.000 I don't think you would have seen him this week. 0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:37.200 In fact, maybe they pull him out after he gets 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:40.000 one touchdown pass if he does, but hey, let's not 0:15:40.200 --> 0:15:43.320 let him do that, because that would be hilarious. And 0:15:43.840 --> 0:15:46.680 I think that he's gonna, you know, he wants to 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.320 play in twenty twenty five, he says, probably not for 0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:51.200 the Jets. I don't think whatdy Johnson wants him back, 0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:53.560 So I don't think that he'll be all that excited, 0:15:53.640 --> 0:15:55.680 especially because that touchdown pass out of the way early. 0:15:56.000 --> 0:15:58.320 To stand in there and take punishment for sixty minutes, 0:15:58.360 --> 0:16:01.640 I think this means another week of and Dotson walking 0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:04.680 up frequently, plenty of sim pressures and fire zones where 0:16:04.680 --> 0:16:07.440 they just constantly bring an extra player, but mixing it 0:16:07.480 --> 0:16:09.960 up enough to hopefully bait Rodgers into the wrong decision. 0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:12.680 He's thrown picks on those little fire zone peel back 0:16:12.760 --> 0:16:16.400 hook drops from like Benito Jones, from Zach Seeler. He'll 0:16:16.400 --> 0:16:18.160 throw those into those guys if you do it enough. 0:16:18.320 --> 0:16:21.440 But here is where I take another step. Without Fashanu, 0:16:21.480 --> 0:16:23.920 they're down to ot three and four. I think Morgan 0:16:23.960 --> 0:16:26.440 Moses is a good player, but as we mentioned, speed 0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:29.920 is his kryptonite. That's chops calling card. And then with 0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:32.440 Max Mitchell, you know he struggled last year as a 0:16:32.480 --> 0:16:34.720 rookie and he has a ninety six point one pass 0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:37.240 block efficiency score this year, which is below the threshold 0:16:37.280 --> 0:16:38.560 we talk about all the time on the show. Here, 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:41.160 I think if you look at your rush matchup, you're 0:16:41.200 --> 0:16:44.000 probably not going to confuse them or just consistently beat 0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:47.280 them inside because of that continuity with Simpson, Tipman and 0:16:47.320 --> 0:16:49.960 Avt inside and it's very good, a very good combination, 0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:52.880 but without the fleet of foot ability you need to 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:55.280 beat perimeter pressure. I think you can get after the 0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:57.640 quarterback with your natural edges, but also blitzer from the 0:16:57.680 --> 0:17:01.960 linebackers from Holland and and Ramsey, and then also just 0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:05.520 the way that lends itself to playing good run defense 0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:05.960
