Inside The Tape With Greg Cosell: Eagles Bracing for 49ers 'Tilted Wing' Alignment · Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast

  Speaker 1: Hello, welcome to Inside the Tape with Greg Cosell on
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Inside the Birds. I'm Jeff Mosher with Adam Kaplan, and
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: of course we have Greg Coseell. It's the final Inside
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: the Tape of the regular season. Of course we'll have
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Inside the Tape in the postseason for as long as
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: the Eagles are alive. We've already gone through Tanner McKee
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: in the season finale against the Commanders, and we wanted
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: to just straight look ahead now and get into a
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: little bit of an early preview on the Niners versus
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: the Eagles. So Greg, we'll show a little footage of
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: what the Niners are offensively. We'll probably talk more about
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: their defensive issues in the pregame show.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: But what are your initial thoughts on this matchup?
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: Well, I think the Niners at their core still are
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: a run based team. I think everything works off their run.
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: I think they use motion as effectively as any team
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: in the league. They started doing something with motion this
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: year that I can't recall them doing in the past,
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: where they kind of line us check up as kind
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: of a tilted wing and motions into the backfield. And
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: they do that a lot, and they do probably ten
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: different things off of it. So I'm sure vic Fanjoe
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: will have you know, in his mind and answer for that,
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: because you know, look, there's multiple ways to deal with motion.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: You can respond to it, you can be static, you know,
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: you can do a lot of different things. But the
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Niners are a motion offense, and obviously McCaffrey is the
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: guy that they use in multiple ways, both as a
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: runner and I think he's the toughest runner in the
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: league in terms of getting hard yards. Their on line
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: has not been great this year blocking in the run game. Obviously.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: We just saw that against a great defense in Seattle,
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: a really good defense with a terrific front, but really
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: good at all three levels, and you know, they just
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: couldn't get them moved at all, and the game kind
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: of got out of control in terms of pacing tempo,
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: you know, because the Niners are a pace in tempo offense,
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: they need to be able to control the ball because
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: when they're at their best in the passing game, it's
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: the big plays come from run after catch, not from
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: vertical throws. They're not really a vertical passing team. Yeah, Pernie,
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: that's not going to be his strength. And by the way,
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: rookie Pierce Saw I understand aggravated an injury. Whether he's
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: sold or not, he's their best receiver to win one
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: on one. But if he can't go, they don't really
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: have that guy.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: It's amazing how well they've done offensively without him for
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: a lot of the year, without rock Perty for a
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: lot of the year, and without Brandon Ayuk at all.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: I mean all year long. They've been kind of They've listened.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: They've leaned heavily on McCaffrey, right, they've leaned on Kittle,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: but even he's been heard at times of the year.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Juwan Johnson, I don't know, Adam, how do they do it?
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: It's like smoking mirrors.
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: The matchup, the scheme in design is fantastic and I
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: love that. I think you should have maybe a couple
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: of weeks ago on the show, the visual of use
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: check of this very unique motion.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, and he's using it to block.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: It's just Jeff.
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: If you look at it, you would think he was
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: a receiver. Yeah, he just gets a running start and
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: get levels of guy. I'm like, this is I'm not seen.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: And they do so many thing and by the way,
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: they play the highest percentage of twenty one personnel of
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: any team in the league over thirty six percent of
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: their offensive snap, even more than Baltimore. Huh okay, oh yeah,
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: twice as much as Baltimore. Okay, So you know used
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: check is a critical factor in what they do. So
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: you know, the question becomes, look, the Eagles, what's the
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: balance here between playing Nickel with Degene you know, inside
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: basically versus playing five to two that's going to be
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I don't know the answer to that. You know the
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Eagles will have an answer for it in their mind,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: But what's the balance? You know? Yeah, they will they
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: play true nickel and then keep Degene as an inside player,
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: he's a very good undefender, or will they play bass
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: and have him on the outside opposite Mitchell.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: That's true for the most part.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I feel like Vic has counteracted twenty one personnel and
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: twelve personnel with base. But there have been sometimes this year,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: depending on the matchup, maybe against the Rams, where he
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: wasn't afraid to go nickel because he knows they're going
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: to try to pass. Out of those big formations, well.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: The forty nine ers and the Dolphins are the most
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: intriguing twenty one personnel offenses in the league because of
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: the multiple things they can do from it. You know,
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: don't forget the player who's in twenty one personnel for
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: the Ravens is not a factor as an offensive weapon,
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: whereas certainly used check is even if he's not an
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: ingold is too for Miami, even though they are not
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: numbers producers, they are weapons the way they're deployed. Picard
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: is not Recard is not a weapon.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Now wait a minute, Greg, he caught a pass in
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: the fourth corner of the other night.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: It was funny. The broadcasters went crazy over it.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: But you know what I mean, I don't know what
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: I'm saying.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, absolutely, they have a They struggle to stop
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: the run the Niners. Now, Adam, you detail this on
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: our postgame show. They're down to what lightbacker number five
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: and six.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: It's yeah, well that's the thing. I'm sorry, I forgot.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: They have at least four guys hurt and obviously not
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: having Fred Warner. I guess there's a chance he could
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: come back for the championship game, which is an outside shot.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: But yeah, they've got problems. It's it's it's a shame.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: Because now the tune's done for the year.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: Gront surgery even Luke, is it Gifford got hurt.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he only played one snap. Yeah, yeah, he got hurt. Yeah,
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: but what the winter status do we know yet? De
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Winters also got hurt. He's got an echo injury. So it's.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: Brown a rib injury. Gifford, Yeah, he's got a quad
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: a conterceps injury. That's not good, right, Well, they do.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: They do play a good number of snaps of big
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: knicks with Pinnic the third safety, and they may have
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: to go that route just because of numbers.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: They've gotten decent safety play right out of Mustafa and
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Jyra Brown.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they've played well. I like both those guys.
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but man, they've given up the corners, Greg, They've
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: given up They've had several like shaky games.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, you know they're run. Defense overall is
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: not as bad as you think it was bad the
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: other night. But if you look at it overall for
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: the season, it's not. It's not among the worst in
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: the league, by the way. Right.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: The thing about the Niners, and I think this is
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: still holding true, is that they're that type of team
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: that if you're up on them going into the fourth
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: quarter if you have a lead. They're just not built
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: for coming back.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: They can't. They don't want to drop.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Their offense is a PI tempo offense that's schematically based,
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: not individually based. So if they're behind and they have
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: to you know, win let's say one on one on
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: the outside where they have to win or you know,
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: they have to win that way, that's not who they are.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: They're a pace they have to see that. It's funny.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: I watched that game live obviously, as I'm sure a
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: lot of people did, and after the first couple of
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: series by the Seahawks where they just controlled the football,
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: I was thinking, this is just not a Niners game,
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: you know. They they're just the pace and tempo with
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: a game got away from them too early. You know.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: That's because they need to control that, right you know,
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: And that's that's who they are on offense.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, they're not a team that can be comfortable
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: being uncomfortable.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Sometimes we can do that that that's really not there
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Forte Adam. Don't you think that that would give the
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Egles just just a really big advantage defensively, Assuming good
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: health and Jalen Carter's feeling good, I mean, if they can,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: if they could be stout against the Niners run game
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: and keep them behind the sticks, they have a.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: It almost doubles their chances to win.
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: That they're not a shot play offense like now.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: They even the craziness of that game, or Jacoby Perce
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: won for four to fifty against them, they still were controlled. Man,
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: it's they're not to throw the ball over the yark
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: kind of offense. No, it's not what they do, right,
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: you know? So, Yeah, I agree, I see it the
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: way Greg does. They're very controlled. You got it. It's
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: a scheme, super duper scheme based offense.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: And when they're doing their thing, they look unstoppable.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Good. Oh but yeah.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: One thing that's really impressive about them, but again could
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: work against them when they play the Eagles is if
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: you look at the number of wins that they've had
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: by double digits, it's really amazing. I mean, when they
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: beat the Bears by five in Week seventeen, that was
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: their first win of less than double digits I think
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: since September. I mean, look at the scores forty eight
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: twenty seven of the Colts thirty seven to twenty four
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Titans twenty six eight Browns. They beat the Panthers by eleven.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: They beat the Cardinals, Adam, you mentioned it by nineteen.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: They're just they beat the Giants by ten. They don't
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: win games by small margins. And that part of it
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: makes me think that when you're playing in the playoffs
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: against a good team on the road, that that that
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: can work against you if like I mean about that
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: the Niners.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: And to your point, Jeff, even if the Niners play well,
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: they're not going to put up thirty five on the
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: Eagles at the link. That's not going to happen back right,
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: they could play really I mean, look to me, if
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: the Niners play well, they would have to win this
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: game like twenty four to twenty, you know that kind
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: of game. They're not. This is not going to be
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: a thirty eight to thirty five game.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: Right. By the way.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: A great stat that I heard was their loss against
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks there in the season finale, the Niners. They
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: only scored three points. It was the first time the
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Niners did not have an offensive touchdown since Kyle Shanahan's
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: first season.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Coaching the Niners. The only lawyer was his quarterback.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: By that they only ran forty two offensive plays. That's
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: what I mean about Payson tempo.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: It sounds like an Eagles game.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: Greg, Yeah, enough plays for them, you know the way
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: they play.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Of course, yeah, of course. Hey, it's Jeff Mosher. Quick
• 10:01

  Speaker 1: All right, let's just take a quick look at you know,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: what to expect from the Niners offensively. We'll get into
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: defense much more in the pregame show. But I put
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: together a few clips just because of how there you
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: guys mentioned.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: What they do offensively in the run game is so
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: he did.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: If you go back, there's the motion. Go back a
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: little further. This is you check in the tilted wing. Yes,
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: and there he is. Now he's going to go in motion?
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Did you invent that term? Tilted wing?
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: Greg? I don't know what else to call it? I
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: I you know, I mean, I love it. Not the
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: time of year when I call. I know people on
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: their staff, but I'm not reaching out now, you know.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: So I'm sure they have a name, well not. I'm
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: sure of course they have a name for it, but
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: I'm not. I'm not going to reach out now.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: I just love it. You trade mark it for the
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: tilted wing.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: And I love the fact that I found a play
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: right off the bat that had what.
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: You Hey, there's this crazy motion they're using.
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: Use check. I saw a Greg show.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: I know you were going to get it great?
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Greg, I didn't go through six games right right?
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: So here we go.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: I watch them every week because I do radio in
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: San Francisco, So I've seen every Niners play for the
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: last fifteen years.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Right, all right, So.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: We see you check lined up in that tilt on
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: the right side, tilt the wing. He's going to go
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: in motion, and.
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: Then from here they do a lot of different things.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: Right, and then if you see the other tight end
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: comes across, which.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: Is kind of normal split flow, you know. Yeah, so
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: this ends up being zone lead. This is zone lead,
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: by the way, decently blocked.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: But this is where McCaffrey really specialized. He finds that
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: cut back an.
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: That wasn't the one play I was talking about, but
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: that's block they want, right, spacing was huge space they want,
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: but it ended.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Up just being zone lead with you know, split flow
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: by the tight end and then used check is is
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: the lead block in his own lead concept? Yep?
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: And this is the end zone angle ye. So again
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: you can kind of see him doing his thing, and
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: there's so you get the motion running start man, look
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: at that.
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, man, he just crazy.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: You didn't have to do anything right? What was that great?
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: Great? Well, it was a great block by the right guard.
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: If I was watching it properly, it.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Was the left guard.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: But you might be correct here on ninety he kind
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: of steals them off.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: He is the right guard. On fifty Yeah, is that mckivitt.

• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Who's blocking forty nine? Is that mckivitz. He comes up
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: into the second level yes, good block too. Yeah, provides
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: the cutback lane. Oh look at that. Look at that
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: move by McCaffrey right there. That's a tough angle for
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: the safety anyway.
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: But buyer too, isn't it?
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: It was?
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And this is the very next play again, this
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: against Chicago. Now you saw a little motion there.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: Go back, go back. He's in the tilted wing.
• 15:43

• 18:02
  Speaker 3: back whatever they call it these days. I guess that's
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: illegal theoretical. Yeah, I was gonna say legal. Yeah, Jennings
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: does a great job and you check kicks out and
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: this is just as you know.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: And their receivers block, man, they block, they do.
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: Mean. Jennings is as tough as they come. He's not
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: a true number one. But you loved him come out
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: of Tennessee. He's a good player. I loved him. I
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: love remember that, yea, and everybody you know when he
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: ran a four seventy four or something like that. Everybody
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: you know, that's why he is who he is. But
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: he's his nails.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, who's who's forty four that he's blocking, right,
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: that's the linebacker, right, who's.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: Right? Yeah he got hurt in this game.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So there you go, McCaffrey into the end zone
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: for a touchdown. I like this one too. This is
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: against Seattle, of this is this is Seattle throwing a
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: rare blitz and you're gonna hit McCaffrey.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Over the middle.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Because so this is what the Eagles have to worry about.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: You got you got the motion to the outside.
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: They're they're a huge motion team. Somebody got.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Look at the space? Now, how did that?
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: What did they do to create that kind of space
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: against a five man pressure?
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Is it the motion to the outside.
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: By the five man pressure? So you're expanding you're expanding
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: the coverage, juice, that's forty four, that's that's use. Yeah,
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: coverge horizontally. Somebody has to go outside with him. You know,
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: you can't just say let's forget about them, don't forget
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: about Jake Tongues.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: Jake Tongues fix and coverage.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: So you know, yeah, yeah, I mean this is not
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: like a huge game, but I mean it's just.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: They got answers against the Blitz that I feel like
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: they always do all right, two plays in the red
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: zone against the Cults that I've always thought Party has
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: like decent athleticism, Greg and just kind of more.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: He has more than decent athleticism.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a he's a pretty good athlete.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: And here's him roll to the right to extend to
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: play and then make a pretty tough throw in traffic.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: There's the motion again, he rolls through his right and
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: there's Kittle.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: Oh he's going to throw it back. Yeah, that's yeah,
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: that's a throw you'd probably go no, no, no, yes,
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: great play exactly exactly.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: You gotta trust your arm on that throw.
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah. But yeah, until until this week, they were only
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: in the red zone one time, and that was the
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: one where thom Has spinned the interception. They've been phenomenal
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: in the red zone in the game since Perdy has
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: been back Party in the six games prior to the
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: Seattle game. In the six now he's back seven. But
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: in the sixth prior he thrown thirteen touchdowns in the
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: red zone.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they are a good red zone and a good
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: third down team.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: Again, put this game aside, they probably still are. But
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: I think in this in the games, they were fifty
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: seven percent on a third down in the game since
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: Party came back.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Wow, that's good situational football there. Red zone third down
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: wins a lot of games.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: And then here's a touchdown Jwan Jennings also in another
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: red zone and play like you were referring to Greg.
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good ball that was.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: That wasn't an easy throw. This was not like wide
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: open guy.
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a really good ball. No, Party's a good player.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: You know, he's obviously he doesn't have a gun, right,
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: but he's just got a really good feel for timing, anticipation.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: You know, he's just which you know, we've talked about
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: this in college, you don't see that because it's not
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: necessary with the difference in the games that you didn't
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: really know that about him until he got to the NFL,
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: which is one reason, which is one reason why he
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: was drafted where he was, because he was viewed as
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: a smaller than ideal sized quarterback without a big arm.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: Good athlete, but not a special athlete, and you didn't know.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: You know, it's hard to know about the anticipation of
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: timing because the college game doesn't really demand it.
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: There was one scout who told me you couldn't tell
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: him that he couldn't make certain throws, but he would
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: try a ball and die.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: It just wouldn't get there.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's just not that guy.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and he found the West Coast old school West
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: Coast offensive terms of he's.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: A classic Shanahan quarterbacks, Yeah, that's what I mean. It's
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: perfect for Plus he's smart as hell Shanahan. I probably
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: shouldn't speak out a school here, but Shanahan's play calls
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: and what he asked the quarterback to do are really difficult. Okay.
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: And I was told by someone who knows that it
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: used to drive him nuts with Garoppolo because Garoppolo would
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: forget some of this stuff, you know, like in the huddle,
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: and it would just you know, it would be a problem. Yeah.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Party is just like brilliant.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: There was something else that was really interesting about Party that, uh,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember for the show. I can't now,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: but either way, Yeah, just watching and tape, I was
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: surprised by his athleticism.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: I forgot a cross athlete, not an explosive athlete, you know,
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: I learned man one of the things to learn and
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: this will help you guys, will we start you and
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: draft and you guys watch guys. There's a difference between
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: athletic and explosive. There's guys who are athletic who are
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: not explosive. And you know Proty is athletic but not explosive,
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: right you see that would like that's a mistake that's
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: made a lot of times with linebackers because everybody wants
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: guys who are like you know, look how twitchy they are.
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: But there are guys who are like Zach Thomas Hall
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: of Famer, athletic, not explosive. Right, you know, there's certain
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: guys and you got it. It's hard sometimes to know
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: the difference.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Great stuff, Greg, all right, we will get into more
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: of this Niners Eagles matchup, of course, in the Inside
