  menu any episode show notesh. They're here on YouTube or whichever podcasting Apple platform
• 1:36
  you are listening to this show on. In tonight's episode of Disguised Coverage,
• 1:40
  a little bit of a different feel for this one. Normally on Tuesday nights,
• 1:42
  at nine pm Eastern, but this one is on Wednesday, October twenty
• 1:47
  fifth, nine pm Eastern. Had a bit of some complications from a life
• 1:49
  standpoint, nothing negative, but just had to rejig the schedule a little bit.
• 1:53
  And then Greg and Aaron, who normally occupy this time slot, they
• 1:57
  went earlier and went last night with the game being on the third and all
• 2:00
  these kind of moving chess pieces. So lo and behold, I'm here in
• 2:04
  the Wednesday nine o'clock slot will not be what you get from me regularly going
• 2:07
  forwardably back to the Tuesday at nine pm next week, and then also within
• 2:12
  that in tonight's episode, normally we break down a multitude of matchups, have
• 2:16
  a guest going to a lot of details. I really wanted to drill down
• 2:21
  one specific matchup piece here in this episode of Disguise coverage, which is very
• 2:23
  matchup focused and schematic focus and x's and o's and all of that. For
• 2:28
  those of you who just joined myself and Eric Turner and to cover one film
• 2:30
  room that went live earlier tonight, you should definitely check out that episode.
• 2:34
  We broke down a lot of these structural and individual execution struggles that we've seen
• 2:38
  from the Buffalo Bills these last several weeks, both offensively and defensively. We
• 2:43
  went into a multitude of details with metrics and film and data and breakdowns and
• 2:47
  x's and o's and all that kind of stuff that you've grown accustomed to on
• 2:51
  the film. So if you haven't checked that out, go and do us
• 2:53
  a favor and yourselves a favor, I like to think in terms of checking
• 2:55
  that out. But if you joined us on that episode or been following us
• 3:00
  on Twitter or myself on Twitter or here on Disguise coverage, what I've been
• 3:04
  talking about these last several weeks, and what myself and Eric dove into a
• 3:07
  lot in the film was what we've seen from the Bills offense on third down
• 3:10
  against teams that have brought pressure against them. And also just realized I got
• 3:16
  tootles, folks, but it should say the intro, what a clown I
• 3:20
  am. So we've seen, really starting with the Jags, teams be able
• 3:23
  to game up the Bills and be able to affect them with pressure, especially
• 3:28
  on third downs, and it's been due to a multitude of things. One,
• 3:30
  the Bills haven't helped themselves out when it's come to third downs. They
• 3:34
  have been really since that Jaguars game, really getting themselves into a lot of
• 3:38
  third and longs, third and eight, third and seven, third nine,
• 3:40
  third and ten, getting into those down in distances that are disadvantageous for the
• 3:45
  offense and advantageous for the defense. Paired with that, you have add teams
• 3:50
  like the Jaguars and the Patriots who are adept at cooking up pressure packages.
• 3:57
  Want a little burry there, who are adept at cooking up pressure packages and
• 4:00
  games and schemes and being able to attack your protections, to be able to
• 4:04
  snuff out hot routes and be able to create free runners and create pressure using
• 4:10
  who you are and what you do against you. Then, on top of
• 4:13
  that, we've also seen some individual execution errors from Josh Allen and this offense.
• 4:17
  Whether it's offensive linemen getting beat handily or quickly from a pass protection standpoint,
• 4:25
  or Josh Allen setting the protection in correctly, or Josh Allen having hot
• 4:29
  reads available and not taking them or hitting them even though they're there, or
• 4:31
  even sometimes he's staring them right in the face aka Khalil shakure, but he
• 4:35
  won't take them. There's been a multitude of reasons and pieces that have affected
• 4:41
  this Bill's offense from a pressure standpoint, and especially again on third down,
• 4:45
  and myself and ericcdobe into a multitude of pieces in relation to that earlier tonight
• 4:50
  in the film room, but I wanted to focus on that for this episode
• 4:53
  of Disguise Coverage in relation to this week's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers,
• 4:57
  because the Buccaneers are a blitz happy team. I mentioned in the past several
• 5:00
  weeks, really starting with that Jags game when I had JP Acosta on from
• 5:05
  s B Nation. In looking at that Jags defense and that Jags defense,
• 5:11
  their defensive coordinator is Mike Caldwell. Mike Caldwell studied under the learning tree of
• 5:15
  Todd Bowles, who is the head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. So
• 5:19
  you're going to get a very attack minded defense in general with the Buccaneers,
• 5:24
  but especially on third down. So looking at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on this
• 5:29
  season for twenty twenty three, there blitz rate on the year the year as
• 5:32
  a whole forty percent blitz rate that is the third highest in the entire NFL.
• 5:38
  If you look at their blitz rate on just third downs forty one percent,
• 5:42
  which is second in the NFL. And again, that's just taking blitzes
• 5:46
  in terms of bringing five or more rushers. That's not taking into account simulated
• 5:50
  pressures. That's not taking into account creeper pressures. That's not taking into any
• 5:56
  of the gamesmanship. That only brings four rushers. Well, appreciate everybody's starting
• 6:00
  to come through. Appreciate you RJ RJ joined myself and Eric on the film
• 6:02
  room earlier. So that's a funny joke with long time no see and what's
• 6:06
  up. Appreciate you join in art. Appreciate you Charles and at a ton
• 6:13
  of brick, A ton of bricks. I've always read it fast and I'm
• 6:15
  like, how to pronounce that. I should have just read it out.
• 6:16
  What's up? Decks, Appreciate you joining and stopping buy So that blitz piece
• 6:21
  right. The Bucks are a blitz happy team. They're going to lean into
• 6:25
  that world, and not just from a quantity standpoint throwing rushers forward for the
• 6:29
  sake of it. They're going to get created with their pressure packages. Todd
• 6:32
  Bowles will bring slot defenders, he'll bring linebackers, he'll drop defensive ends.
• 6:38
  Their edges are versatile and athletic, so he has no problem rushing any member
• 6:42
  of his front four or dropping them. Even Videvea at times, who is
• 6:46
  a huge mountain of a man in terms of one tech nose tackle type mold.
• 6:49
  They'll drop him as a low whole player at times just to really mess
• 6:53
  with teams. But you're going to get confusion from the Buccaneers defense. You
• 6:59
  are going to get and attack minded philosophy when it comes to what they want
• 7:03
  to do on offense. They want to heat up the quarterback, they want
• 7:06
  to pressure the quarterback. They want to get upfield cause havoc create mayhem problems
• 7:12
  for the offense. That is where the Bucks want to live. That's where
• 7:14
  the Jags like to live in their third down packages. Again, the Pats
• 7:17
  did something similar. So we're continuing to see this theme in this trend.
• 7:20
  And the reason it's the most important matchup piece for me in this game is
• 7:26
  the Bills offense. They've been sputtering the last several weeks and they need to
• 7:30
  get things right in course correct just for themselves in a nutshell, but also
• 7:34
  with what's going on with the Bills defense from an injury standpoint, not to
• 7:41
  give them a pass or give them an excuse, but the offense needs to
• 7:44
  start doing some more of the heavy lifting. I think when this Bills team
• 7:46
  went healthy offensively and defensively, they're arguably the most complete team in football.
• 7:51
  And the injuries that they've had happen have not only been a lot in terms
• 7:58
  of quantity, they've been a lot in terms of quality and also at positions
• 8:01
  where the Bills aren't necessarily flush, and again they're losing high quality players at
• 8:07
  premium positions. You lose a potential All Pro corner in Trey White, again
• 8:11
  corner being a premium position and Trey being a very good one. You lose
• 8:16
  an All Pro linebacker in Matt Mulano, who was an All Pro last year,
• 8:20
  and with what the Bills do defensively, he's one of the biggest pieces
• 8:24
  that stir the pot defensively, both in terms of a chaos creation standpoint,
• 8:26
  but also from an execution standpoint. You lose Daikwon Jones, who was playing
• 8:31
  at an all Pro level on the interior and was great not just for himself
• 8:35
  but for the rest of the defense. He was a positive domino for the
• 8:39
  defense as a whole, and also specifically at Oliver, but really the entire
• 8:43
  group. Then you had at Oliver who missed time last week, and there's
• 8:46
  just been all these things that have reflicted the defense, mainly from an injury
• 8:50
  standpoint, and they've all significantly contributed to the different defensive metrics and advanced metrics
• 8:56
  and analytic pieces we've seen these last several weeks of how the defense is a
• 9:00
  quote unquote, you know, falling off a little bit, and oh,
• 9:03
  what's up, Richard saying good evening, and I appreciate you stopping by,
• 9:05
  Richard, Thank you very much. I like this comment here. There's a
• 9:09
  difference between losing starters and losing all pro players, and that's a huge piece
• 9:13
  that you know, really I was trying to get towards there, like,
• 9:16
  if you lose starters, that hurts in general. But it's not only that
• 9:18
  the Bills are losing starters. They're losing very good football players, and they're
• 9:22
  losing very good football players and extremely important positions for this team and for this
• 9:28
  defense. So they're getting hurt like two times three times really with the injuries
• 9:33
  that they've had. So it's just a cascading effect and a domino effect from
• 9:37
  a negative standpoint. And with that, I don't want to write off the
• 9:41
  defense. I don't want to sit here and say, like, okay,
• 9:43
  so we should expect the defense to give up thirty every week. But their
• 9:46
  performance against the Patriots was very concerning. The Patriots offense was not even one
• 9:52
  dimensional. They were no dimensional. They were one of, if not the
• 9:56
  worst passing offenses in the NFL from an advanced metrics standpoint, from point production
• 10:00
  standpoint, and even just an overall what they do, what they've been doing
• 10:07
  from a success standpoint and EPA standpoint. So weeks one through six before they
• 10:11
  played the Bills, the Patriots offense as a whole, they were twenty eighth
• 10:16
  in success rate at forty percent, and they were last in the league in
• 10:18
  EPA per play. Versus the Bills, they were second in success rate at
• 10:24
  fifty three point four and third in EPA per play. So from twenty eighth
• 10:28
  in success rate to second a success rate of forty percent to fifty three point
• 10:33
  four, and then thirty second in EPA per play to third in EPA per
• 10:39
  play. The Bills allowed this Patriot offense to get comfortable with the ground game.
• 10:43
  They got moved up front a bit although I will say, and I
• 10:46
  said it on the film earlier, I think the play of the defensive front
• 10:50
  was better than I had thought. After the broadcast and watching the film.
• 10:54
  You know, some players stood out a bit more, especially poone of Ford.
• 10:56
  He had several good reps. Once again, especially considering you know what
• 11:01
  he is and who he is. But this defense, that performance against New
• 11:05
  England was very concerning, and it's reflected in the metrics for that game.
• 11:09
  It's really reflected in their metrics the past several weeks, and I just I
• 11:15
  don't want to completely write them off, but with their struggles against New England
• 11:18
  and the holes that they have and who they have playing and who has been
• 11:22
  thrust into seeing significant reps on this defense, this is not going to be
• 11:26
  the unit that existed the first several weeks in the season. This is not
• 11:31
  a unit that was a top five, arguably top three defense week in and
• 11:35
  week out. This is a unit that's going to give up some yards.
• 11:37
  This is a unit that's going to give up some points. They're going to
• 11:39
  make some mistakes. They're going to get beaten in various ways against the run,
• 11:43
  end against the pass. With all of that, I say all that
• 11:46
  to get to this next point, which is the offense is going to start
• 11:50
  to have to carry more of the load. This is not like, I
• 11:54
  don't know if it was ever a fifty to fifty split in terms of offensive
• 11:56
  defense, but if it was, it asked to shift to the offense.
• 12:01
  The offense needs to start carrying the weight and helping out the defense a little
• 12:03
  bit more. This now becomes less of a complete football team and it has
• 12:09
  to become more of an offense offensively driven football team. Instead of having somebody
• 12:13
  in the driver's seat and somebody riding shotgun and you can alternate drivers every hour
• 12:18
  or so, or after you get gas on the road trip, this now
• 12:20
  becomes you know, yeah, you can drive, but you're gonna stay riding
• 12:24
  shotgun. I'm taking this thing from the start point to the endpoint. And
• 12:28
  that person doing that at the wheel is the offense. That's what we need
• 12:33
  to see from this Bills team going forward. And so that's why this episode
• 12:35
  is focusing on this specific matchup piece because there's a multitude of things that are
• 12:41
  going to go into the Bucks defense versus the Bills offense, but this pressure
• 12:46
  package perspective and what the Buccaneers can do. Really again is the top piece
• 12:50
  for me. So again, the Buccaneers on the year forty percent blitz rate,
• 12:56
  third highest in the NFL. Forty one percent blitz rate on down which
• 13:00
  is the second highest in the NFL. And again, when I say blitz,
• 13:03
  I mean rushing five or more at the quarterback. So this is not
• 13:07
  take into account simulated pressures or creeper pressures or anything like that. And that's
• 13:11
  important right when it comes to the blitz piece. When you look at Josh
• 13:16
  Allen weeks one through four versus weeks five through seven, So these last three
• 13:20
  weeks, the Jags, the Giants, and the Pats where he's really started
• 13:24
  to struggle. Josh Allen versus five or more rushers. Actually, what I
• 13:26
  should do is let me just share my screen here, so that way it's
• 13:31
  even easier to break that piece down. Right, So if you look at
• 13:37
  my screen there, I have a queue up the tweet I put out yesterday.
• 13:41
  So Josh Allen versus five or more rushers Weeks one through four out of
• 13:45
  thirty four qualifying quarterbacks, ninth in total EPA, third in positive play percentage,
• 13:52
  second in QB rating. Weeks five through seven out of thirty two qualifying
• 13:56
  quarterbacks, twenty eighth in total EPA, twenty fourth in positive play percentage,
• 14:01
  and twenty second in rating. Again, all those pieces are against five or
• 14:05
  more rushers. We saw him struggle against the Jags. We saw the Jags
• 14:09
  execute at a high level with scheme and structure that we've seen other teams use
• 14:15
  since then to influence Josh Allen. Again, I mentioned the multitude of things
• 14:18
  and we broke them all down in detail in the film earlier tonight, myself
• 14:22
  and Eric Turner. When it comes to dictating protections, manipulating protections, snuffing
• 14:26
  out hot routes, some of it is structural, some of it is predictable
• 14:30
  from the Bills offense, and some of it is on Dorsey, Some of
• 14:33
  it is on the offensive line, some of it is on Josh Allen,
• 14:35
  especially from a hot route perspective. But you look at those numbers again,
• 14:39
  it has been a dramatic and drastic difference for Josh Allen weeks one through four
• 14:45
  versus weeks five through seven against the Blitz. So those five or more rushers,
• 14:50
  it has been rough these last several weeks. And again, this Buccaneers
• 14:54
  team like I mentioned forty percent blits right third in the league. Forty one
• 14:58
  percent blitzer rate on third down second most in the league. Now, what's
• 15:03
  interesting is when you look at their metrics from a pressure standpoint and advance metrics
• 15:07
  from bringing five or more rushers, they're thirty first in pressure percentage at thirty
• 15:13
  three point three percent when they bring five or more. So it's not the
• 15:16
  most effective. Now again, part of it is that pressure percentage is a
• 15:20
  little lower, partly in d partly due to the fact that they bring five
• 15:24
  or more so often, so volume will affect that a little bit. But
• 15:28
  thirty first in pressure percentage, seventeenth in sack percentage. Again, these are
• 15:31
  all blitz numbers. So when the Bucks rush five or more, so thirty
• 15:35
  first in pressure percentage at thirty three point three percent, seventeenth in sack percentage
• 15:39
  at seven point three percent, tied for fourth in sacks per game at one
• 15:43
  point two. And then somebody who I really wanted to highlight, I'm gonna
• 15:46
  show them in the tape that we're going to break down in a minute.
• 15:48
  Elijah Knsey from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, first round pick out of the University
• 15:54
  of Pittsburgh very much in the ed Oliver Mold to put them on your radar
• 15:58
  if you don't know him already, may and I say, at Oliver Mole
• 16:02
  just from a size and frame standpoint, he is on the smaller side,
• 16:04
  but violence hand technique can rush the quarterback, is better against the run than
• 16:10
  he gets credit for only three games played for the Buccaneers this year. He
• 16:12
  was banged up a little early in the year, but he's seventh in pass
• 16:17
  rush productivity for all interior defensive linemen out of one hundred and twenty seven qualifying
• 16:22
  interior defensive lineman. Again, just a rookie, and that's him being added
• 16:26
  to that defensive line that even though Videveya isn't you know, a pure pass
• 16:30
  rusher the ability to push the pocket. But you've got Cancy, You've got
• 16:33
  Vidaveya, You've got Logan Hall, You've got Joe Tryon Sharanka. And then
• 16:37
  what they do with Devin White and Lavonte David and Shaquille Barrett, what they
• 16:41
  can do with mixing and matching their fronts. They use Yaya Diabi in a
• 16:45
  variety of ways. They'll use Mike Green and Greg Gaines like they've got a
• 16:49
  good rotation in grouping up front, they get creative, they get after the
• 16:53
  quarterback, they attack, they attack, they attack. That is what we're
• 16:56
  going to see from this Buccan year defense against the Bills offense. And with
• 17:02
  that being said, I do want to bring up this piece when it comes
• 17:08
  to the film, So let us dive right into this and I can share
• 17:12
  my screen so we can look at some of the really cool things that Tampa
• 17:15
  Bay Buccaneers do. So I picked the game against the Detroit Lions one because
• 17:19
  the lines are good football team, especially on the offensive side of the ball,
• 17:23
  even though they got absolutely thrashed by the Baltimore Ravens last week. But
• 17:26
  again, I think that says more about what the Ravens can be when they're
• 17:30
  healthy and clicking, versus it meaning like the Lions are frauds. The lines
• 17:33
  are a good football team, so it's nice to see the Bucks in this
• 17:38
  game breaking down some tape with them against a good team with a good offense,
• 17:42
  a good play caller, a good schemer, a good designer, an
• 17:47
  offense with good structure. Also an offense with good timing rhythm and a very
• 17:51
  good offensive line. Also, I really love the Buccaneers creamsicle jerseys. So
• 17:55
  this gives me an excuse to stare at them while we break down some tape.
• 17:57
  But the pieces are really wanted to highlight. And again majority of these
• 18:00
  are going to be third downs, and I have them notated at the top
• 18:03
  of the screen for each piece here. So this first one is a third
• 18:08
  and eight and not crazy. This is early on in the game, just
• 18:12
  to give you a sense of what you're going to get from this Buccaneers defense.
• 18:15
  So we'll go forward in slow motion. What do we get? One,
• 18:21
  two, three, four, five? And then yah ya Dabbi is
• 18:25
  six, So we're going to get a six man pressure here four from the
• 18:27
  Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Here they come. Golf force is the throw and it's
• 18:34
  incomplete, right, and now why does that happen? Let's go forward a
• 18:37
  little bit here, start to watch a little bit. So part of the
• 18:41
  reason it happens here we go live here. So watch their protection. So
• 18:48
  what's nice and what the Buccaneers will do. They'll cover this center and when
• 18:52
  they cover that center, jusually going to lead to some kind of man on
• 18:55
  man protection. You get to occupy that center and you can start to create
• 18:59
  one on one opportunity unities throughout the rest of the offensive line, whether it's
• 19:02
  against the running back or a tackle against the guard, you can kind of
• 19:03
  dictate matchups a little bit. So you've got Devin White hat up over the
• 19:07
  center. But watch what happens here with Klijah Cancey, rookie out of Pitt,
• 19:12
  who I loved at Pitt from a tape perspective. He was one of
• 19:15
  my favorite prospects coming out of the draft. Watch on the snap you get
• 19:18
  to kick down inside. Also Diaby comes, so they pass this off correctly,
• 19:26
  like you have to get a hat on a hat like this is fine.
• 19:27
  You got somebody on Devin White, you got somebody on Dabi. But
• 19:30
  what happens is you get David Montgomery having to come all the way across and
• 19:34
  he has to pick up a defensive lineman and Elijah Cansy. Now Kancy is
• 19:37
  undersized for a defensive lineman, especially from an interior perspective. He plays more
• 19:42
  of a three to four end in this defense and kicks inside on pass rushing
• 19:48
  downs. You know, him going to the Buccaneers and fitting in their three
• 19:49
  four system really worked out in terms of his body type and skill set and
• 19:53
  frame and what he has. But even though he is undersized for an interior
• 19:57
  defensive lineman, he's way oversize versus David Montgomery from a running back perspective.
• 20:03
  So Montgomery comes all the way across. Chancey just lowers the shoulder. Montgomery
• 20:07
  actually does a pretty decent job in halting him a little bit initially, but
• 20:11
  then Chancy works through ec He just has Montgomery off kilter, pushes him right
• 20:15
  into the lap of Golf. Golf has to throw this little earlier that he
• 20:18
  wanted to sales over incomplete again to show this example. They're creative, they're
• 20:25
  attack minded, they're fast, they are good, they like they have talent
• 20:29
  and scheme when it comes to their blitz package. Just up front, and
• 20:32
  this is an issue for this Bill's team right where we've seen James Cook have
• 20:37
  to operate in pass protection. Now, I don't think any running back is
• 20:40
  really picking up Elijah Cancey and succeeding on this play, but that's another aspect
• 20:44
  to continue to consider as well. We've seen Latavious Murray operate more on third
• 20:48
  downs for this Bill's offense. Part of that is due to him succeeding in
• 20:52
  the past game and out in space. But a lot of it is due
• 20:55
  to his knowledge and his awareness and his execution and size and frame when it
• 20:59
  comes to pass protection. So again from the sideline angle, it's highlight mister
• 21:03
  Elijah Cansey comes through. And again this is all dictated by the look that
• 21:10
  they show. They have to honor these pieces and it creates a one on
• 21:14
  one. There are six rushers versus five offensive linemen, which means and they
• 21:18
  keep the running back in. If they didn't keep the running back in,
• 21:21
  there would be a free runner who would be Jared Goff's responsibility. He would
• 21:26
  then work that hot. You know, if this was coming free he and
• 21:29
  you know, if Montgomery's leaking out into the backfield, there is no six
• 21:33
  blocker to pick up that sixth rusher. That free rusher wouldn't be David Montgomery's
• 21:37
  responsibility. It would be Jared Goff's responsibility. He would have to hit us
• 21:41
  hot off that free runner. But regardless, they create a matchup advantage and
• 21:45
  it leads to Golf getting pressured, getting heated up. Now, this is
• 21:48
  also covered well on the back end from a Buccaneers perspective. Right, Like,
• 21:52
  there's not a lot of space they're sticky. They go with man here,
• 21:56
  so there's not a ton of space in rooms operate for the lions.
• 22:00
  And even if golf hits on rossaying Brown over the middle, you know,
• 22:04
  I don't know where this is going. When it's probably tackled short, there's
• 22:07
  nowhere for him to really go. So there's not a ton of opportunities for
• 22:10
  success on the back end. Oh, I got to stop. Hold on
• 22:15
  here, Richard says. The creamsicle jerseys are so ugly they almost look like
• 22:18
  the Tennessee balls. I understand the Tennessee valls comparison. The creamsickles are beautiful.
• 22:23
  They're delicious looking, just like creamsickles and orange buddies are delicious. You
• 22:27
  get the orange around the vanilla. Man, fantastic, This is fantastic.
• 22:32
  These jerseys are are are fantastic. I, you know, respectfully disagree with
• 22:36
  you, Richard. I appreciate you being here. I'm disappointed that you don't
• 22:38
  like the creamsicles. But again, to each their own, I respect you.
• 22:41
  So again, good rush, get a defensive lineman on a running back,
• 22:45
  heat up the quarterback incomplete. Good job for the Buccaneers. So they'll
• 22:51
  test your protection. They'll test your quarterback. Does he know his hots?
• 22:55
  Is he iding the rush correctly? Does he get confused by the rush?
• 22:59
  Does he misidentify? Does your offensive line misidentify? Even if they identify everything,
• 23:03
  can they still hold up against tryon Sharenka and Shaq Barrett and Collijah Kansi
• 23:08
  and Logan Hall and the whole crew that they have up front. Let's move
• 23:11
  on to another play now, another third and eight. This is part of
• 23:17
  it too, again why I wanted to tie this game in. The Lions
• 23:18
  face several third and lungs in this game, just like the Bills and face
• 23:22
  several third and lungs these past several weeks. This plays to the defensive team's
• 23:26
  hand. This allows them to get more creative with their packages. It allows
• 23:30
  them to play their defenders back at the sticks and play top down and just
• 23:34
  cover things that happen in front of them. Not to mention too, being
• 23:38
  in the low red zone here, you know you have the boundaries in the
• 23:41
  sideline, but also in the back of the end zone is kind of an
• 23:44
  extra defender, so the offense is more boxed in. But another pressure and
• 23:49
  the Buccaneers here you see Devin White already lined up and coming close to the
• 23:53
  box. See the safety Ryan Neil coming down. What do you get?
• 24:00
  Blitz now and ends up being a run the Detroit Lions. But again,
• 24:03
  blitz is a blitz and it's all just the attack minded piece from the Buccaneers
• 24:11
  now. Wanted to highlight that, but I also want to highlight Vita Vea,
• 24:15
  who is Let me go and see what his weight is listed. I'm
• 24:21
  pretty sure it's like three point fifty, but just in case it's not,
• 24:30
  where are we? Uh yeah? Vidave is listed at three hundred and forty
• 24:33
  seven pounds. Okay, watch I have him circled here. Just watch how
• 24:38
  fast he moves for a man that's three hundred and fifty pounds. That's just
• 24:47
  ridiculous. He is an absolute monster inside. He is an absolute force on
• 24:52
  the inside. This is something here and here he is right up over Devin
• 24:56
  White and similar to the play we showed before, what is he He's had
• 24:59
  up on this center which allows them to kind of manipulate protection a little easier,
• 25:03
  sets up more of a five to zero protection for the offensive line,
• 25:06
  kind of monkeys with them a little bit. When you cover that center,
• 25:10
  you can kind of dictate more man protections. I anticipate Videvea doing a lot
• 25:15
  of just one on one with Mitch Morse. And I love Mitch Morse.
• 25:19
  I think he's one of the most athletic centers in the league. He's tremendously
• 25:22
  smart, he's great in space. He does not do great against power guys
• 25:26
  and big dudes who want to kind of bully him and bear down on him.
• 25:30
  Vidavey is a matchup nightmare for Mitch Morse. He can just drive Morse
• 25:34
  right into the backfield. Morse is going to need help. Yeah, as
• 25:37
  Ralph says in the Commissary, he's gonna kill Morse. Yeah he is.
• 25:41
  Mitch Morris isn't built for you know, he's you know, if if Vidavea
• 25:45
  is King Kong, mich Morris has not Gonzilla. You know, he's kind
• 25:48
  of just like a regular human, which is fine. There's not a lot
• 25:49
  of King Kongs and Godzilla is out there. But Vitavea is one. Vdave
• 25:55
  is questionable. You know, he got to knock a little bit, but
• 25:56
  he is a matchup nightmare on the interior, potentially against Mitch More's but nonetheless
• 26:02
  again, mister Vidavea, it's watching me here. Just watch the quickness from
• 26:06
  him. Boom just reads it, crashes down, also knocks the ball out
• 26:11
  a little bit there, which is a nice little bonus piece from him.
• 26:14
  We watch it in slow motion, so again he's head up on the center.
• 26:18
  Once it gets snapped, he's shooting right. He's you see, they're
• 26:22
  almost they You can't really see it as much because of what the Lions do,
• 26:27
  but if we go from that end zone angle, it's almost like they're
• 26:32
  running a gap exchange between Vitavea and Devin White. So you're gonna watch Vita
• 26:37
  veaeo this way, Devin whiteo this way. But the way it works out
• 26:41
  with what the Lions do from a run standpoint, you kind of can't see,
• 26:44
  like the full gap exchange there what they do there, so they play
• 26:48
  off each other. Just the quickness Vidavea sees it is even just watch where
• 26:53
  his eyes are right on the ball, so as he's making contact with his
• 26:56
  man, his eyes are in the backfield. And then the quickness and the
• 27:00
  agility to stop start again knocks the ball out makes a play nice This actually
• 27:06
  was there a little bit. If you look how Ryan neil Uh who is
• 27:10
  right here. If you look at how he comes crashing down, he kind
• 27:14
  of gets pinned inside a little bit. So Vidave doesn't make this play,
• 27:17
  there's a chance this could go for something like that's actually a nice little alley
• 27:21
  and a nice little gap. I know you probably don't want to hear that,
• 27:23
  because nobody wants to see the Bills run on second and long or third
• 27:27
  and long anymore. I still like it if it's the right look and the
• 27:30
  right call at the right time. I think the Bills have been sound in
• 27:33
  their decisions to run on second and third downs. It just hasn't worked out.
• 27:37
  A lot of it is individual execution, guys just getting beat up front.
• 27:41
  But this actually isn't bad in terms of this being here. You get
• 27:45
  a crack, gonna get a kickout if Vidave doesn't blow this up. This
• 27:49
  alley is here. But again, when you blitz and you have good players
• 27:55
  and you attack, all you need is a split second. You just need
• 27:57
  somebody to miss their block. You just need so to lose an individual rapper,
• 28:03
  miss an assignment, whatever have you. You just put the onus on
• 28:06
  the offense to have to execute and make a play, and Vidavea does the
• 28:10
  rest of this is blocked up. Like, we'll show it from this angle
• 28:12
  too. This run is blocked up, but Vdaa makes it work, and
• 28:17
  he makes it work partly because the blitz occupies other players and allows me to
• 28:19
  get free. But he just makes a good play again, pretend Vidave is
• 28:22
  not there. That's fun. That's a good opportunity, a chance to get
• 28:27
  a first down or at the very least fourth and short and then know on
• 28:30
  the Lions they potentially or probably go for it third and six for the Detroit
• 28:36
  Lions. Now on this next one that we have here, so you see
• 28:38
  Jared god bringing Sam Laporte in motion. As soon as he does that,
• 28:45
  watch Devin White checks communicates really good linebacker. I mean, Devin White has
• 28:55
  you know, his his wards. But he's fast flowing, he's agile,
• 28:57
  he's angry, he plays like a heats seeking miss Levante. David is still
• 29:02
  a ridiculously good linebacker, even with the mileage he has on his tires.
• 29:06
  So they bring Laporta in. You see David already right up here, starting
• 29:11
  to creep a little bit coming forward. He's trying to time snaps. See
• 29:15
  what he's gonna do. But it's all a lie. He's not actually coming,
• 29:19
  he drops Devin White rushes. They bring the slot bling, they bring
• 29:26
  the slot corner. So David again, watch this, watch Leavonte David.
• 29:30
  He's creeping like he's gonna blitz. He's showing this on purpose to play games
• 29:34
  like all right, I'm coming, you see me coming, You see me
• 29:37
  coming, You see me coming. Psych drops out and when you end up
• 29:41
  getting is a five man pressure and again free runner. Now Golf does a
• 29:47
  good job on this one. Gets it out hot and Aman rossaying Brown makes
• 29:51
  a really good catch. He gets hit as soon as the ball touches his
• 29:53
  hands by Neil, but he makes the catch a mon Rossaint Brown is is
• 29:57
  that dude? He is elite. It's a good play. Let's look at
• 30:00
  it from this angle again. Watch what do we got? One, two,
• 30:06
  three, four down for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And then also we've
• 30:11
  got another guy showing like he's going to rush. And mister Levonte David,
• 30:15
  now we go forward. What happens. Center shifts to the left, thinking,
• 30:22
  okay, that's where the protection was designed. We potentially got three guys
• 30:25
  coming. Psych, that's not what we have you actually now on that side,
• 30:30
  also keep an eye out to Shack Barrett drops out, so they're dropping
• 30:37
  Levante David. They're dropping Shack Barrett. Now this left side of the line
• 30:42
  has three on one, which is extremely inefficient for the offense, which means
• 30:47
  on the other side, you've only got your right guard, your right tackle,
• 30:51
  and you're running back two block one, two three four. Sometimes football
• 30:59
  is math, football is numbers. Free runner. Now, Goff sees it,
• 31:03
  sees what's up and gets it out right away. That's a good job
• 31:06
  by Jared Goff, something that Josh Allen is going to be tested to do
• 31:08
  in this game. Knowing his hots and getting to them. There were several
• 31:12
  reps in that Patriots game where the hot was available multiple to multiple of them
• 31:18
  to Khalil Shakir and Alan didn't hit him. And that's on Alan. He
• 31:21
  has to be better in that regard. This is Goff knowing what's up,
• 31:26
  makes the play. But again, just from a Buccaneers perspective, right,
• 31:32
  this is a good job by them dictating the protection, manipulating the protection and
• 31:37
  creating a free runner. Again, even the slot corner here right he comes,
• 31:41
  he IDs and it's kind of keying in on the receivers right here,
• 31:47
  He's not completely showing blitz and then he gets his eyes on Goff and then
• 31:51
  takes off. That's good timing. He's not telegraphing it, he's hiding it.
• 31:55
  That's a good job. And then you get David dropping into the middle.
• 31:57
  You get Shaq Barrett again, that's highlight that piece. Shack Barrett is
• 32:00
  here on the edge, but he's still athletic. So you've got four down.
• 32:07
  You don't know who's coming. And that's a big thing with their defense,
• 32:08
  like they're gonna blitz, but you don't know necessarily who it is.
• 32:12
  Someone could drop them their defensive line. Two players could drop, three players
• 32:15
  could drop. They could bring both their linebackers in the slock corner like they
• 32:19
  get creative. It's all just about confusing protections, manipulating protections, attacking the
• 32:23
  quarterback, confusing the quarterback, and attacking the offense in general against the run
• 32:28
  and the pass, but especially on these third and long situations. So again,
• 32:31
  look at the offensive line. M well done. And again good catch
• 32:40
  by mom and ros Saint Brown making that play against Neil. That's a good
• 32:44
  stick. That is just good math. M Oh, Kendall stop him by
• 32:55
  what's up? Kendall Kendall says, first time, long time. Sorry,
• 32:59
  I'm here and you may have already said it. Are you concerned about Alan's
• 33:01
  ability to I D blitzes and getting the ball out hot? Tampa Bay has
• 33:05
  the third highest blitz rate. Yes, Kendall, I am concerned. They
• 33:07
  do have the third highest blitz rate. They also have the second highest blitz
• 33:10
  rate on third down. I talked about it a bit earlier in the show.
• 33:14
  Also broke it down a bunch with Eric on the film when we're earlier
• 33:15
  tonight. But yes, there's a lot going on with the bills struggles against
• 33:22
  the blitz recently. Some of it is on Dorsey for predictability and schematics.
• 33:27
  Some of it is on the offensive line from an individual execution standpoint, But
• 33:30
  there is that significant piece as well that is on Josh Allen for either setting
• 33:35
  the wrong protections, iding the wrong rushers, or just not hitting his hots.
• 33:40
  There are multiple reps in that pass game, and I'm sure you saw
• 33:43
  Kendall where guys come like Jowan Bentley in the low red zone he blitzes.
• 33:47
  It's six rushers against five, you know blockers up front. That sixth rusher
• 33:52
  is Alan's man he's hot, shakiirs his guy, Shakira sees it, sits
• 33:58
  down. Alan doesn't take it and take Cook on the wheel earlier against the
• 34:02
  Giants in that Giants game. Like, there's all these pieces where Allen's not
• 34:07
  taking the hot and he either doesn't see it or he does see it,
• 34:09
  but for some reason, he's still not taking it. So yes, I
• 34:12
  am concerned about Alan's ability to I d Blitz isn't getting the ball out hot.
• 34:15
  I think he's just making life complicated for himself. He just needs to
• 34:17
  simplify it. I'm thinking of the kiss method from the offense. Keep it,
• 34:22
  keep it simple, stupid, that's it. It's second and second and
• 34:24
  nine. Cool hit the hot, make it third and five, third and
• 34:28
  four. Oh, it's third and nine, cool hit the hot, make
• 34:30
  it fourth and three, fourth and four. Maybe you go for it potentially,
• 34:34
  just he needs to keep it simple. He's doing too much. But
• 34:38
  again, I love what the Buccaneers do on defense, and I love those
• 34:40
  creamsicle jerseys, Richard. I'm really disappointed that you don't love them. But
• 34:45
  this is good. Again. The initial I know doesn't play out this way,
• 34:47
  but this initial piece three on one that is horrible math for the offense
• 34:52
  and tremendous math for the defense. Now, no matter what they do again,
• 35:00
  he's occupied by Chancy. He can't pass this off Now, this is
• 35:05
  just extremely difficult. He'd have to pass him, pick him up, and
• 35:07
  then Montgomery's gonna have to pick up the slot. That's just too much happening
• 35:13
  too fast like that, that's not gonna happen. So also, Chancy does
• 35:16
  a really good job. See where that arm is. See how he's hooking.
• 35:22
  He's hooking the guard. He's dragging him inside with him. He's saying,
• 35:24
  you're not getting free because I know right. Let's go back a little
• 35:30
  bit from the other angle. Watch Chancy rip. He's just occupying him,
• 35:35
  so Devin White can cut right off his butt. They want to put this
• 35:37
  dic running back into conflict. So Devin White's going there, twenty nine is
• 35:40
  going there. They know they're creating a free runner. So Chancy just occupies
• 35:45
  two. You literally have four blockers versus two defenders here, which is great,
• 35:52
  good design, good execution, fast flowing, free flowing football and again
• 35:55
  countered by Jared Goff and I'm on ros Saint Brown Golf makes a read puts
• 36:02
  it on Brown. Brown makes a contested catch, good play, good football
• 36:07
  around good chest, match football between the lines and the Buccaneers. Now let's
• 36:10
  go to another one. Let us see third and two here for the Tampa
• 36:17
  Bay Buccaneers. Now what do we got? This one showing full pressure one,
• 36:22
  two, three, four, five on the line and then mister Devin
• 36:28
  White and then you look at everything else across the board from a coverage standpoint,
• 36:30
  looks like man coverage. Looks like man coverage. Looks like man coverage.
• 36:34
  Looks like man coverage. So let's see what happens again. Third and
• 36:37
  two A bit of a different scenario than we've shown recently. These are all
• 36:40
  third and longs before. Now we got a third and two Golf calling it
• 36:45
  out. I'm going in this little motion right now, snaps it. What
• 36:49
  do we get? This one kind of presents is what it was. So
• 36:52
  what do you end up getting across the board? You get man coverage across
• 36:54
  the board? Can you make a throw? Golf? Does adjustment by the
• 37:00
  porta better played by Lavonte David who still has it? Eric said it earlier
• 37:06
  in the film room tonight. No Dawson Knox this week. You know,
• 37:08
  if you want this to be Dalking Kate breakout game. It gonna be tough
• 37:13
  because Levonte David can still play. Laporta got him earlier in this game on
• 37:17
  a corner route or an out route, really shook him, leaned into him
• 37:21
  in the stem, snapped it off on the break and created separation. David
• 37:24
  got him on this one. So again, what do we got as I
• 37:28
  keep showing you head up on the center be able to dictate protection to kind
• 37:31
  of create a man protection scenario. The center can't slide if he's got to
• 37:36
  account for that man that's head up on him. So part of the advantage
• 37:39
  of you know, using five down fronts or barefronts, especially too, when
• 37:43
  you also have a guy over each guard, you're able to kind of again
• 37:45
  this screams right now, one on one, one on one, one on
• 37:49
  one, one on one, one on one, and then the running back
• 37:52
  is responsible for the linebacker. So again they game it up well, but
• 38:00
  it's gummed up. Good job by the Lions. They protect, they execute,
• 38:02
  They have a very good offensive line. This one is really just a
• 38:07
  highlight Levante David. Oh, that's such a good play. I'm gonna let
• 38:09
  her roll from the other angle because you get a better piece on that.
• 38:15
  Yeah, this offensive line is a very good offensive line for the Lions.
• 38:17
  Again, this is a good blitz, a good idea, not the most
• 38:20
  complicated, but the Lion's idea. They execute. Boom, good job,
• 38:24
  good ball from golf right on the porta. Watch Levonte David's hands punch right
• 38:30
  through the ball and rip that out. And then David gets up and he's
• 38:31
  pumped and he knows it. So does Winfield. They got a super fun
• 38:36
  defense. Now, next play third and thirteen. So talked about a multitude
• 38:44
  of pieces talked to you know, Kendall just brought it up in the chat
• 38:46
  right now, Like iding the blitz and getting the things hot. Some of
• 38:51
  the things that can also work against these defenses is hitting these quick plays and
• 38:55
  hitting your hots and hitting things underneath and relying on your playmakers to make a
• 39:00
  play with the ball in their hands, or even if they don't make a
• 39:04
  play, that's fine, just getting it into a more advantageous situation. So
• 39:07
  this is third and thirteen. See what the Bucks are showing right now,
• 39:13
  one, two, three, four, five. Maybe Levante David, you
• 39:20
  know, especially seeing that he's got a man right over him, so this
• 39:23
  could present his man. This could present his man man man. So if
• 39:28
  you're looking at that and then you have a single high safety in the back
• 39:30
  with Winfield, this very easily could be a one, two, three,
• 39:32
  four, five, six man pressure. You could have everybody come in here.
• 39:36
  So the lines have to idea it, they have to diagnose it.
• 39:40
  Goff snaps it, David ends up dropping, so it's just a five man
• 39:44
  pressure. Okay, nothing crazy five man pressure. The running back stayed into
• 39:47
  block thinking that there might be six coming. So right now it's five to
• 39:51
  five. It's one on one. Lines do actually a pretty good job.
• 39:54
  What does golf do? Now? Again, this is an amazing play on
• 39:58
  ibi. I'm on Rossin Brown and then the block from Reynolds over here,
• 40:01
  which we're gonna show. But just take what the defense gives you. No,
• 40:05
  I know, Jared Goff is a much different player than Josh Allen.
• 40:08
  He does not have the legs or the explosive capability in his arm either.
• 40:13
  He doesn't have that dual purpose and that dual threat. So he's going to
• 40:15
  live and die with the efficiency piece and the smart play. But this is
• 40:20
  good. What do you do even if I'm on rossaining Brown makes this catch
• 40:22
  and gets tackled right away. Cool, you set yourself up for a better
• 40:24
  field goal position, or give yourself the opportunity to go for it. Say
• 40:28
  he just cuts up field right now, maybe he gets tackled there around the
• 40:34
  eighteen, right it's fourth and four or maybe fourth and three. That you
• 40:38
  definitely have an easier and more makeable field goal, but you also have the
• 40:40
  opportunity to go for it on fourth down. But what happens here because Goff
• 40:45
  is sudden and decisive and gets the ball out right away to his playmaker,
• 40:52
  i'm on Ross saying Brown makes a play, and then again watch Reynolds come
• 40:55
  out of the backfield. This is this play just becomes tremendous. I'm on
• 41:00
  Ross, Saint Brown makes a play. Here comes Reynolds. Boom on,
• 41:02
  Carlton Davis sets I'm on Ross, Saint Brown for you down the sideline.
• 41:07
  This is a beautiful play. I saw this live when it happened. This
• 41:10
  was awesome. I absolutely love this play. But again, it's getting the
• 41:15
  ball out and Golf doesn't even have to like hit it necessarily right away.
• 41:19
  He still has some protection that holds up a bit. I know, Uh,
• 41:22
  trying here gets into Decker, kind of pushes him back into the pocket
• 41:29
  a little bit, and then you are going to get this loop from Devin
• 41:30
  White, who you know, if Golf hangs out into it a little bit
• 41:32
  more, you know, maybe that pressure gets there from trying Shrinka. Maybe
• 41:37
  Devin White loops free and is good, but Golf gets it out. We
• 41:42
  live to fight another day. Cool, Let's get it to fourth and three
• 41:45
  or fourth and four. Let's have a more makeable field goal situation. Either
• 41:49
  way, it's a good decision, it's a smart decision, it's an efficient
• 41:52
  decision. And then I'm on Ross Saint Brown rewards him. Now, I'm
• 41:58
  on Rossaint Brown is awesome. He's one of the best receivers in the league.
• 42:00
  So this isn't something oh yeah, let's just replicate this and do this.
• 42:04
  But if that's Deontay Hardy and he's got the ball in his hands,
• 42:07
  or I don't know, if it's a running back coming on in the backfield
• 42:09
  and that's James Cook, you have the potential to potentially, you have the
• 42:13
  potential to potentially have some things happen like that. If you are the Buccaneers
• 42:16
  or if you're the bills against the Buccaneers. Again, I wanted to show
• 42:19
  this one because it is another blitz. They present it looking like it could
• 42:22
  be a six man it ends up being a five. But this ties into
• 42:25
  what we need to see more from Josh Allen, which is idea in these
• 42:30
  blitzes and then getting it out. Now again, this is third and thirteen
• 42:34
  like, so it probably if he gets tackled there, it ends up being
• 42:37
  fourth and short. Like, I don't think golf is making this I don't
• 42:39
  think golf is making this throw in this decision decision thinking well, I'm on
• 42:45
  Rossaint Brown's gonna house it. He's just being smart and ef fishing with the
• 42:51
  football, and I'm on ross Saint Brown rewards him. Pooh, an awesome
• 42:57
  blockdown field. But again, take your high, take advantage of what the
• 43:00
  defense is giving you, be smart, allow the explosives to come right now.
• 43:07
  Again, we know Josh Allen. Maybe he scrambles in this area and
• 43:10
  somebody uncovers and he uncorks a throw downfield and makes an alien throw. Right.
• 43:16
  There's also that side of it too, There's more than one ways to
• 43:19
  skin a cap. I hate that phrasing because I like cats and I would
• 43:21
  never want to skin a cap. But that's beside. The point ends on
• 43:23
  angle one more time. Here comes the blitz. They got it ball out.
• 43:28
  Just look at the timing, look at the rhythm for golf like even
• 43:31
  that we go back to that angle again, the timing, the rhythm of
• 43:37
  it. Stay on schedule from a yardist perspective, but from a timing perspective,
• 43:40
  hits his drop ball out. Good rhythm, good timing. Now Josh
• 43:45
  isn't necessarily that player. He hasn't really ever been. And also Golf has
• 43:51
  to live like this because he doesn't have the athleticism or the arm or the
• 43:53
  legs that Alan does. So again, if Alan can do those little things,
• 44:00
  impair that with the alien unicorn nature that he has, it starts to
• 44:05
  get really fun. Now this is a first intense situation, so our first
• 44:07
  non third down of this breakdown. But I picked it because it's a known
• 44:12
  passing situation. It's first and ten. They are in the two minute drill,
• 44:15
  so it's most likely going to be a pass. So it gives the
• 44:17
  Buccaneers the opportunity to continue to lean into their blitz game and continue to get
• 44:22
  into that bag. Now, what do we see here four down tune an
• 44:27
  off ball position slock corner. Now, when I have it frozen, you
• 44:31
  can see a slock corner potentially indicating with his you know, with where his
• 44:36
  foot is, body language, where his head and his eyes are. You
• 44:39
  could see, Hey, maybe he's gonna blitz. So will he let's see
• 44:45
  he is here? He comes now again, keep an eye on what do
• 44:50
  we got. Here's Shack Barrett. It's way too big of a circle,
• 44:52
  Anthony. Here's Shack Barrett. Cool I showed him earlier. This is what
• 44:57
  you can do with your athletic edges and a three four defense. Here we
• 45:01
  go. So watch what we get. Shaq Barrett's gonna drop off. You're
• 45:05
  gonna get a rush here. You're gonna get a rush here. So it's
• 45:07
  one, two, three, four, five five rushers a blitz out of
• 45:14
  a look that presented as just a four down front with two off ball linebackers
• 45:17
  in the box. Here come the rushers, one of them being Lebonte David.
• 45:23
  He comes screaming through. Your running back's got to pick him up.
• 45:28
  This is after David Montgomery left, So this is Reynolds. David just goes
• 45:32
  right through him. Heats up golf. Now, Golf has Laporta underneath.
• 45:38
  Here's Sam Laporta. Golf has him. He has the opportunity to make this
• 45:43
  throw. He just misses, but he misses because of the blitz. Also,
• 45:50
  Laporta sits. We got to mention that piece. Watch Laporta as he
• 45:53
  comes across. I don't know if this is on him or Golf. I'm
• 45:59
  guessing because he sees the leverage of Devin White that he thinks he should sit,
• 46:04
  But Goff thinks he's gonna keep going. I'm gonna trust Jared Goff before
• 46:07
  I'm gonna trust Sam Laporta, even though I love Sam Laporta. So I'm
• 46:10
  gonna think that laporter should have kept going here. But you can see,
• 46:14
  Yeah, the porter starts to gear down, balling complete. I appreciate you
• 46:20
  save a way run and running back. Yeah you drova. You joined myself
• 46:22
  and Eric on the film room at seven. Yeah, I'm double duty in
• 46:25
  with head to move his guy's coverage from last night tonight. And I know
• 46:28
  it's gonna affect viewership and so on and so forth, but had to be
• 46:31
  done. Let's go back again, ends on angle in view again. What
• 46:36
  do we got? Four down? To off ball. These views are always
• 46:38
  nice because it shows from a box perspective, like you can't even see the
• 46:42
  corner, who's way out here, who's about to come off and blitz.
• 46:45
  But again, David, he's not even keying up this time, he's staring
• 46:49
  down into the backfield, but he's not showing anything. Barrett looks like he's
• 46:52
  rushing again. It's all mind games, Jack Barrett drops out. Here comes
• 46:57
  Levante David screaming down the heats up the QB. What's also nice, too,
• 47:06
  is because you have these two right, look what it does to the
• 47:10
  protection from an offensive line standpoint. Okay, he slides, so we got
• 47:19
  two on two. Okay, great, now this isn't a bad job by
• 47:23
  the right guard. He sees what Vida Veya does and he starts to work
• 47:28
  here. But then watch him see Levante David and try to come back.
• 47:32
  But Levante David so fast that by the time he does, he can only
• 47:36
  really really get on his back shoulder, and David's able to get pressure and
• 47:39
  then even on the other side too. Right, try and Shrinka again,
• 47:45
  who has athleticism and burst and all that kind of stuff. Watch him just
• 47:50
  go through Decker with that long arm drives him back a little bit, and
• 47:53
  then he got David coming down the pike. Write down that a gap.
• 48:00
  It's good defense, good scheme, good confusion, Heat up the quarterback,
• 48:04
  force it in completion. This is what you're going to get. Josh Allen
• 48:08
  is going to be taxed mentally in terms of iding these pressures and knowing his
• 48:13
  hots and hitting them. The receivers are going to be tested and knowing when
• 48:16
  they are hot and being able to sit down and settle and recognize. The
• 48:21
  offensive line is going to be tested from an individual talent perspective, because the
• 48:24
  Bucks got some dudes that play in the box and that will rush. And
• 48:29
  that's not even including Antoine Winfield Junior, who will also blitz and his fun
• 48:31
  in his own right in that regard. So they're going to test you from
• 48:34
  an individual talent standpoint. They're going to test you from a schematic standpoint.
• 48:37
  And that's all on the offensive line, the receivers, the quarterback, and
• 48:42
  they're also going to test your running back to pick up blitzes. I am
• 48:45
  not confident in James Cook picking up Leavonte David or Devin White on the blitz.
• 48:50
  I would like to be I am not now this next play, second
• 48:54
  and ten, same two minute drill. This is literally the exact next play.
• 48:58
  Got an incompletion on first down a second and ten, But what do
• 49:00
  we got again? And no one passing down? So the Buccaneers are going
• 49:04
  to try and lean into that blitz. Another piece here, Oh, tired
• 49:09
  four down two off ball linebackers slot corner over here. So not presenting like
• 49:15
  a blitz, looks like regular four man rush. What do we get on
• 49:19
  the snap try and Shranka takes a step forward, drops out. Levante David
• 49:27
  is gonna take off. That's one Winfield Junior is going to take off.
• 49:30
  So now you've got this look. He's gonna blitz. He's gonna blitz,
• 49:37
  he's gonna drop. So you've got a five man rush bringing two non traditional
• 49:44
  rushers dropping a traditional rusher and all of that presenting out of a four down,
• 49:50
  two high look. Initially they spin on the back and you see Neil
• 49:57
  start to drop. Neil was over. Neil is right here, but he
• 50:00
  was initially here. Now he starts to drop because he's going to go to
• 50:04
  that single high look. He's going to go to a post safety role.
• 50:07
  Well timed from David. Watch Levonte David just barrel down boomsack again. Reynolds
• 50:15
  is green, So test him, make him stay in, make him protect,
• 50:19
  make him pick up these linebackers who are very good at blitzing. Watch
• 50:22
  Levonte David just b line it right for Jared Goff boom so quick, so
• 50:30
  fast, the pacing, you would not think this dude is into his mid
• 50:34
  thirties playing ball, like especially with all the mileog he has on those tires.
• 50:37
  Like just great timing. Also, I hope you guys picked up that
• 50:43
  little piece there. Let's go back. Watch vide Vea occupy his man so
• 50:51
  Levante David can cut off and go right through that a gap. Also,
• 50:57
  watch Elijah Cansey occupy the set. This is you know, everybody doing their
• 51:02
  one eleven. Sean McDermott would love this rep right here. This is designed
• 51:07
  to get Levante David free. Now, Colijah Cansy. Maybe the center makes
• 51:10
  a mistake, maybe the left guard makes a mistake and Vitave gets through,
• 51:14
  Cancy gets through whatever. They are just trying to occupy their men to create
• 51:19
  a free runner, and that free runner is Levante David like they do.
• 51:22
  Oh, I keep clicking that thing they do their job. Let's go back
• 51:29
  a little bit again. Watch Cancy, watch Vita Vea, and this gives
• 51:34
  Levante David that opportunity to cut inside. Might I highlight them both, Cancy
• 51:44
  Vita Vea. Watch them both occupy their men. Vitave also even crosses into
• 51:52
  the left tackle in a decker as well. They create that like they are
• 51:58
  just occupying defenders. They are just instructing guys to create a lane and a
• 52:01
  runway for Lavonte. David put him into a situation where he's either free or
• 52:06
  the running back has to come and pick him up, which is what happens.
• 52:09
  Running back is late, David gets a sack. James Cook is going
• 52:14
  to be tested in pass protection regularly in this game. Latavius Murray too,
• 52:19
  but I have more faith in Murray as a blocker than I do. James
• 52:21
  Cook boom, really nice piece. Like it again. I like what this
• 52:30
  Buccaneers team does from a pressure standpoint. Now, let's go to this last
• 52:34
  play, third and four for the Buccaneers. This ties into again beating this
• 52:38
  blitz. It's not like every time they blitz they win. They get pressure.
• 52:42
  It's not an automatic thing. You can beat them Reynolds coming out of
• 52:46
  the backfield. So now you've got to spread look three by two. I
• 52:52
  would like to see this continue more for the Bills. I would like to
• 52:53
  see this also mix it in with some tempo and go hurry up and no
• 52:57
  huddle on some pieces. Okay, now let's go back. I'll shut up
• 53:01
  and stop talking. Let's watch mister Devin White here. So the Buccaneers check.
• 53:08
  Once Reynolds comes out of the backfield, the Bucks check. You see
• 53:12
  trying Sharinka coming from the other side. You see David with the hands signal
• 53:15
  of the communication. They're checking. They're adjusting to seeing Antoine Winfield come all
• 53:22
  the way over match Reynolds. Now here's Devin White. Let's go forward in
• 53:31
  slow motion, actually going regular. You see Goff checking the protection given the
• 53:36
  call. He's communicating again, watch what Jared Goff is doing. He sees
• 53:39
  this look, he sees what's going on. He's gonna step up to the
• 53:43
  line. He's calling out the protection, he's calling out the route, the
• 53:46
  change. I think he's alerting on this one. Now what do we got
• 53:52
  one, two, three, four, five, six, six down?
• 53:58
  And let's look at we got from a coverage active this screams man coverage,
• 54:01
  man on a man, man and a man, man and a man,
• 54:06
  man and a man, man and a man. So this presents like it
• 54:09
  is going to be a six man pressure with man coverage with it right,
• 54:13
  little cover zero right here with what we got shown here nobody back here zero
• 54:19
  on the back end. But Golf saw this and checks, what do we
• 54:23
  get? Boom, little tunnel screen and what the Buccaneers do. The Buccaneers
• 54:31
  actually brought pressure. If the Bill's had a screen game, I would love
• 54:36
  them to do this. I think they have a better chance at smoke screens
• 54:42
  and tunnel screens and bubble screens than they do like screens out of the backfield
• 54:45
  of running backs. So boom, one, two, three, four,
• 54:52
  five, six. So they showed six. They showed a six man pressure.
• 54:55
  They brought a six man pressure. They showed man coverage on the back
• 54:58
  end. It was man coverage cover zero, cover zero. That's what you
• 55:00
  got. So what they showed is what they did. But again they show
• 55:05
  what they're gonna do. They show A, they end up doing B.
• 55:07
  They show B. They do W. They love to throw everything at you.
• 55:09
  But this is a good call here from the Lions good adjustment, Golf
• 55:14
  hits the screen, good blocking. Good job from School getting out in space,
• 55:20
  and Reynolds gets upfield. Good for him, especially after having that awesome
• 55:24
  block earlier out in space to spring on on Ross Saint Brown and then struggling
• 55:29
  in pass pro a little bit. Yeah, RJ, it would be cool
• 55:31
  to not have the worst screen game in the history of football. Man.
• 55:35
  Look at Penny School out in space knocks down too, Dudes, I just
• 55:39
  want to highlight that maybe some little block in the back action here potentially,
• 55:45
  But this is Seoul right here, and you know, honestly like he's one
• 55:47
  of the best right tackles in football. But Spencer Brown could do some of
• 55:51
  this with his movement and his ability. So here's Penny School. I don't
• 55:53
  know, I stop the circle. Here's Penny School right there. Just watch
• 55:57
  him out in space. Watch fifth that right tackle bom athletic good again.
• 56:07
  You want to take advantage of this fast flowing, speedy attack, minded defense,
• 56:13
  make them have to play slower. How do you make them play slower?
• 56:15
  Play action and screens also motion, also getting the ball out quick and
• 56:22
  quick game, making them have to think, do we really want to bring
• 56:24
  this? Can I rustrate on the quarterback, or do I have to honor
• 56:28
  the run first? If I'm a defender, you know, am I really
• 56:31
  coming forward to play the run on the way to the quarterback? All these
• 56:37
  pieces make them have to think, make them have to honor multiple responsibilities,
• 56:43
  process, diagnose, and again some of this is just making them play slow
• 56:46
  too. You do this enough times on a team all of a sudden,
• 56:49
  when they blitz or when those rushers are coming on the D line, they
• 56:52
  come and they're like, h was this too easy? Should I stop?
• 56:57
  Like, oh, we gotta watch out for the screen. I can't just
• 56:59
  pin my ears back. Get in their head a little bit, make them
• 57:00
  think on all these pieces. To our Ja's point, it would be cool
• 57:07
  to not have the worst screen game in the history of football. Part of
• 57:10
  it is due to how defenders play Josh Allen. Defense is played Josh Allen,
• 57:14
  so you're never really getting guys that come screaming for it because they respect
• 57:16
  his run threat. So that's some of the pieces there. When it comes
• 57:23
  to the Buccaneers blitz game, again, I just want to focus on a
• 57:27
  specific matchup for this game. When it comes to that real quick, I
• 57:30
  did want to mention another piece. But on the other side of the ball,
• 57:32
  Bill's defense Bucks offense. The Buccaneers offense on the year, they're thirty
• 57:37
  first in EPA per rush. They have the third highest hit at the line
• 57:40
  of scrimmage percentage when it comes to runs at forty nine point three percent,
• 57:46
  and they have the fourth highest stuff percentage at twenty five point seven percent.
• 57:52
  Stuffed runs are runs they go for zero or less yards, so this is
• 57:55
  a run game that has not been good. They get hit at the line,
• 57:59
  they get stop fords zero or less yards, and they're thirty first in
• 58:01
  EPA per rush. Now, if you look at their overall offense, they're
• 58:06
  eleventh overall in passing EPA. Again, just from a passing perspective, then
• 58:10
  an overall offensive perspective, they're nineteenth in EPA per play, and they're twenty
• 58:15
  ninth in success rate. Now, they do present some matchup issues. I
• 58:21
  don't love Dane Jackson or Christian Benford or whoever against Mike Evans. Eric and
• 58:27
  I broke down a lot of slot fade pieces that have worked for the against
• 58:30
  the Bills in the past couple of weeks. Mike Evans loves to run slot
• 58:32
  fades. I'm worried about covering Mike Evans. I'm worried about covering Chris Godwin,
• 58:37
  even from a tight end perspective, versus what the linebackers have been doing
• 58:42
  for the Bills recently with Dorian Williams, you know, kind of losing dudes
• 58:45
  and his eyes and processing misleading him, and then Tyrol Dotson not having the
• 58:50
  athleticism I worried about. What I worry about what cad Otten can do.
• 58:53
  He's an underrated tight end blocker also functions in the past game like a bit
• 58:58
  of that dual threat type tight end. He's been cooking a little bit and
• 59:02
  he's been reliable for Baker Mayfield. He's somebody who I like from a size
• 59:06
  and frame and skill set perspective. So the combination of Godwin and Evans and
• 59:10
  Kate Totten do potentially worry me a little bit on that side of the ball.
• 59:15
  But like I said, the biggest matchup piece in this game is going
• 59:20
  to come down to the Buccaneers defense against the Bills offense, and in particular
• 59:24
  their pressure packages, especially on third down, against what the Bills are doing
• 59:30
  offensively. The Bills have always kind of been the team that they'll go as
• 59:35
  far as Josh Allen takes them. But when healthy, they had a defense
• 59:39
  that could go toe to toe and win you some games and keep you in
• 59:44
  some games that you didn't deserve to be in. Now, with the injuries
• 59:49
  on the defense and what they have filling in, this team now becomes an
• 59:53
  offensive first team if it wasn't already, and if it was already, it's
• 59:58
  more significantly an offense first team team now even more so has to hitch its
• 1:00:02
  wagon to Josh Allen and to this offense because they can stand the tide a
• 1:00:07
  bit. They can mitigate some things with the players they have still on the
• 1:00:10
  defensive side of the ball and scheme and structure and everything that Sean mcdermoy can
• 1:00:15
  do, but they just don't have the firepower on defense to be that complete
• 1:00:20
  football team that they were earlier in the year and that they were pegged to
• 1:00:22
  be coming into this year. They now become a fully offense first team again
• 1:00:29
  if they were not already, and if they were, you're swinging that pendulum
• 1:00:31
  even further. So with that being said, you know, every week the
• 1:00:36
  most important matchup is going to be the Bills offense against their opposing defense,
• 1:00:40
  and then some specifics within that. Granted there will be you know, important
• 1:00:44
  pieces on the other side of the ball, like when they play the Bengals,
• 1:00:45
  you know, what can the Bills defense do against Burrow and Chase and
• 1:00:47
  Higgins and crew. But in this one, it just lines up perfectly.
• 1:00:52
  Talked about it on Twitter, talked about it on the film room, like
• 1:00:54
  we've seen Kendall mention it here in the chat, like we've seen this Bills
• 1:01:00
  passing game from whether it's Allen, whether it's Dorsey, whether it's the O
• 1:01:04
  line, whether it's schematics, whether it's individual execution, whether it's basic,
• 1:01:07
  whether it's complex. We have seen them fail in a multitude of ways the
• 1:01:10
  past several weeks when it comes to facing five or more rushers. The numbers
• 1:01:15
  I gave earlier, you know, speak to that significantly. The plays on
• 1:01:20
  Twitter I've broken down, the plays myself and Erica broken down in the film.
• 1:01:22
  All of those things speak to and show the struggles that the Bills offense
• 1:01:28
  has had these last several weeks against five or more rushers. And they come
• 1:01:31
  into a game against a team that loves the blitz and that is effective with
• 1:01:37
  their creativity and their pressure packages, and if you get if the Bills get
• 1:01:42
  behind the sticks, if the Bills are living in third and seven plus again,
• 1:01:46
  man, it's going to be it's a hard way to live. In
• 1:01:49
  general, it's going to be a very hard way to live against this Buccaneers
• 1:01:52
  defense. They got a squad. They're good schematically, they are good from
• 1:01:55
  a design standpoint, and they're good from an execution standpoint. This is a
• 1:02:00
  group that has talent, but that's also played together for a lot these past
• 1:02:04
  several years. They know what to do, they know the system, they
• 1:02:07
  know the scheme, they know each other, they work well together. It's
• 1:02:09
  a really good group on that side of the ball. And adding to the
• 1:02:13
  fact that Thursday games are always wonky and you don't have all the necessary time
• 1:02:17
  to heal from the past week's game and or prep like, Thursday night games
• 1:02:22
  are the worst. I don't even really like watching them in general because the
• 1:02:24
  football really isn't great, let alone having the Bills playing one. So I'm
• 1:02:29
  not a fan of this at all. But the silver lining potentially is we're
• 1:02:32
  going to see if the Bills are able to adjust to the pressure packages that
• 1:02:37
  teams are sending them are sending their way now because they're going to playing on
• 1:02:42
  a short week, which may skew the results one way or the other,
• 1:02:45
  potentially based on the preparation standpoint and health standpoint, all that kind of stuff.
• 1:02:50
  But we're gonna find out early if they're able to combat these pressure looks
• 1:02:53
  that defenses are sending their way because this Bucks team man is every bit in
• 1:03:00
  the mold of that Jaguars defense, but better, but more effective in coverage
• 1:03:06
  and better blitzing. And with the guy who taught that Jags defensive coordinator how
• 1:03:09
  to operate that Jags d things really started with that Jaguars team and kind they
• 1:03:13
  have moved forward, it has the potential to get really complicated and messy against
• 1:03:16
  this Bucks defense, given the talent they have and the scheme and style and
• 1:03:21
  philosophy they operate with on that side of the ball. So I'm very nervous.
• 1:03:24
  Something I'm never nervous about is the quality I get at One Pie Pizza.

  think you drop alike on this video. It goes a long way towards helping
• 1:04:32
  myself and the entire team to track and trend in front of more eyes and
• 1:04:35
  ears. So please drop alike on this video if you have not all ready
• 1:04:40
  exactly you know what. I like what William says. They still got a
• 1:04:43
  playoffs in we good too. Absolutely, absolutely, Sometimes you got to tip
• 1:04:46
  your cap to the other team. Maybe the Bucks will have to do that.
• 1:04:48
  These the Bills aren't toothless, they aren't weaponless. They have the ability
• 1:04:53
  to fight back. They should win this game. The Bill should beat the
• 1:04:55
  Buccaneers, but the Bucks are aren't a pushover, and the Bucks can present
• 1:04:58
  some problems, especially if the Bills continue to force themselves into these third and
• 1:05:02
  long situations and allow defenses to eat. And from a schematic standpoint, it's
• 1:05:06
  very interesting from a chess match perspective. But you're right, they do a
• 1:05:11
  good job. Oh that's awesome comment from David. They're saying, thanks so
• 1:05:14

• 1:07:35
  something we look towards, you know, look forward to, or look towards
• 1:07:40
  going forward. Falling apart already it's the back to back shows. Maybe that's
• 1:07:44
  something I look towards going forward when it comes to a certain matchup, pieces
