- 1:39Speaker 1: Underscore Underscore And in this episode of Disguise Coverage, a
- 1:43Speaker 1: bit of a Walkie schedule for me this week, so
- 1:46Speaker 1: no traditional regularly scheduled Tuesday nine pm Eastern live episode
- 1:51Speaker 1: of the show, So doing this offline film breakdown episode
- 1:56Speaker 1: in its place in order to accommodate what I got
- 1:58Speaker 1: going on this week. And I also thought this would
- 2:01Speaker 1: be a nice thing to dive into given how the
- 2:03Speaker 1: game played out between the Bills and the Dolphins this
- 2:06Speaker 1: past weekend. Really nice performance for the Bills coming out
- 2:09Speaker 1: against the team that really had to give it there
- 2:11Speaker 1: all based on where Miami was. It was close and
- 2:14Speaker 1: down to the end, but the Bills were able to
- 2:16Speaker 1: get another win against the Miami Dolphins, continuing this nice
- 2:19Speaker 1: stretch against them these past several years. And we're going
- 2:21Speaker 1: to dive into the dolphensive side of the ball in
- 2:23Speaker 1: this one, in particular, looking at Josh Allen and tying
- 2:27Speaker 1: in some Joe Brady pieces as well, but we're looking
- 2:29Speaker 1: at how Josh Allen was able to move the ball
- 2:31Speaker 1: consistently against the Dolphins defense, taking what was given to him,
- 2:35Speaker 1: how he was able to do it, why he was
- 2:37Speaker 1: able to do it, And for me, it really started
- 2:39Speaker 1: with looking at the next gen passing chart from this
- 2:44Speaker 1: game and if you look at it, and I've got
- 2:45Speaker 1: some numbers to kind of put things in a perspective
- 2:47Speaker 1: as well. But if you look at the chart initially,
- 2:49Speaker 1: you can just see how much of his day was
- 2:52Speaker 1: at or around ten yards and below. The majority of
- 2:56Speaker 1: his day was kind of up to nine yards and below.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Passes behind the line of scrimmage, around five yards under it,
- 3:03Speaker 1: between five to nine. He lived in this area. He
- 3:06Speaker 1: consistently took what the Dolphins defense gave him. Joe Brady
- 3:09Speaker 1: dialed some things up to work into those areas of
- 3:12Speaker 1: the field, and it really was an offensive performance that
- 3:15Speaker 1: didn't feel like there was a lot of heavy lifting
- 3:17Speaker 1: for Josh Allen. There were some easy buttons baked in,
- 3:20Speaker 1: but a lot of it too was Alan playing on time,
- 3:23Speaker 1: in rhythm, making good decisions. Putting some of these numbers
- 3:27Speaker 1: or why I should say this chart into perspective with
- 3:29Speaker 1: some numbers as well. Seventy one point eight percent of
- 3:33Speaker 1: Josh Allen's passes versus the Dolphins came at nine yards
- 3:36Speaker 1: or less, with eighteen of them coming between zero to
- 3:39Speaker 1: nine yards and ten coming behind the line of scrimmage.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Allen was ten of ten behind the line of scrimmage
- 3:45Speaker 1: for one hundred and twenty one of his two hundred
- 3:47Speaker 1: and thirty five passing yards. He was twelve of eighteen
- 3:50Speaker 1: on passes from zero to nine yards for seventy seven yards.
- 3:53Speaker 1: The Bills also had one hundred and ninety two yards
- 3:56Speaker 1: after catch, which was the most in Week nine, with
- 3:58Speaker 1: the Dolphins coming in its second at one hundred and
- 4:00Speaker 1: sixty one. Ironically or maybe not so, so that's really
- 4:03Speaker 1: where my head was at for this game coming out
- 4:07Speaker 1: of it. Once it ended, you could tell on broadcast
- 4:09Speaker 1: where Allen was operating, how he was operating, But then
- 4:12Speaker 1: looking at that chart and diving into some of the
- 4:14Speaker 1: numbers Sunday night and early Monday morning kind of put
- 4:17Speaker 1: that into perspective even further. And then you watch the tape,
- 4:19Speaker 1: you see that put into perspective even further from there.
- 4:22Speaker 1: So I thought it'd be fun to dive into that
- 4:24Speaker 1: dissect several of the plays in order to put this
- 4:27Speaker 1: holistic game plan and area and mode of attack into
- 4:31Speaker 1: perspective for you folks. So with hell further ado, let's
- 4:34Speaker 1: dive into the tape. This first play we're going to
- 4:36Speaker 1: look at is a completion from Josh Allen to Khalil
- 4:38Speaker 1: Shakir on a third and five in the first quarter.
- 4:41Speaker 1: You see Shakir highlighted as the number three to the
- 4:44Speaker 1: top of your screen. Right here, you're going to see
- 4:47Speaker 1: Dalton Kinkaid pull Jalen Ramsey in coverage. Here is Kincaid
- 4:51Speaker 1: and Ramsey. You're gonna see Kinkaid pull Ramsey. You're going
- 4:54Speaker 1: to see Shakir settle into the void created and Josh
- 4:57Speaker 1: Allen is going to hit him as soon as Alan
- 4:59Speaker 1: see him. He puts the ball right on him. You're
- 5:01Speaker 1: gonna see a quick trigger, good decision making from Josh Allen,
- 5:04Speaker 1: and also maybe some wide receiver friendly play from Josh
- 5:07Speaker 1: Allen as well in throwing Shakir away from a potential
- 5:11Speaker 1: impact with the outside corner and also allowing Shakiir to
- 5:14Speaker 1: turn and get upfield. So this is a concept that
- 5:16Speaker 1: Bills been working a little bit the past couple of weeks.
- 5:18Speaker 1: Some kind of seam or vertical route from the number
- 5:21Speaker 1: two receiver, a hitch from the number one up top,
- 5:24Speaker 1: and then a stick or a little out with a
- 5:26Speaker 1: hitch from the number three receiver. Here, we're gonna get
- 5:28Speaker 1: this little route from Shakir a little out here. Alan
- 5:32Speaker 1: hits him puts it right on him. And this is
- 5:34Speaker 1: what I talked about a little bit. As we rewind here,
- 5:37Speaker 1: watch Kincaid as the number two in the slot him attack,
- 5:40Speaker 1: Ramsey goes with him. So all of a sudden, this
- 5:43Speaker 1: space becomes available. Get a little voided area there for
- 5:47Speaker 1: Shakir to work into. He sees it. As soon as
- 5:49Speaker 1: he breaks. He snaps, gets his head around to Josh
- 5:52Speaker 1: Allen and watch Alan. He's at the top of his drop.
- 5:55Speaker 1: Ball's coming out. Alan is already pulling that trigger. Shakiro
- 6:00Speaker 1: eyes around him, His eyes are on Shakir and then
- 6:02Speaker 1: watch the throw. Puts it out of the back shoulder.
- 6:06Speaker 1: Allow Shakir to get upfield a little bit after the catch,
- 6:08Speaker 1: but also potentially if he puts it out here a
- 6:10Speaker 1: little bit more, might lead him into this outside corner,
- 6:13Speaker 1: creates a collision point, maybe ends up pulling Shakir down
- 6:16Speaker 1: short of the first down, or causes it in completion
- 6:20Speaker 1: or fumble. Who knows, but you throw your guy away
- 6:23Speaker 1: from that potential contact. Also allow him to get upfield
- 6:26Speaker 1: just taking advantage of what is here. Right, you see
- 6:28Speaker 1: the void in the defense, you see the space that's created,
- 6:31Speaker 1: and you see Alan throwing on time, throwing in rhythm,
- 6:34Speaker 1: getting the ball out, making good decision. That is going
- 6:37Speaker 1: to be the theme in this episode. Alan throwing on time,
- 6:41Speaker 1: in rhythm, good decision, good eyes, all of these pieces
- 6:45Speaker 1: one more time. Here you can just see it in
- 6:46Speaker 1: real time. Bank balls out right on him. Simple. I
- 6:50Speaker 1: hate using the phrase simple pitch and catch, but that's
- 6:53Speaker 1: kind of what that was there, a little simple pitch
- 6:55Speaker 1: and catch. This next play going to look at is
- 6:57Speaker 1: a second and two checkdown completely Deray Davis. Also in
- 7:02Speaker 1: the first quarter, you're gonna get a three by one
- 7:04Speaker 1: formation with the jet motion. We talked about it in
- 7:07Speaker 1: last week's episode. This one, there's a little bit of
- 7:09Speaker 1: a different presentation in personnel. You've got two tight ends
- 7:12Speaker 1: on the field. Here's Kincaid, here's NOx, and then you
- 7:15Speaker 1: also have the sixth offensive linemen in mister Alec Anderson,
- 7:18Speaker 1: who we have grown accustomed to seeing this year for
- 7:21Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. You're gonna get Kincaid on the jet motion.
- 7:25Speaker 1: It's usually mc collins. Last week it was Jalen Virgil,
- 7:27Speaker 1: It's been Curtis Samuel at a multitude of time. Sometimes
- 7:30Speaker 1: you're seeing it from more of a trip's bunch with
- 7:32Speaker 1: the wide receivers there close to the formation. Here, you
- 7:36Speaker 1: have a heavy personnel look, you've got everybody attached to
- 7:39Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. But at the end of the day,
- 7:40Speaker 1: it's still one two, three by one. So you get
- 7:44Speaker 1: that three by one look, granted a different presentation than
- 7:47Speaker 1: how they are accustomed to working that in. You're going
- 7:51Speaker 1: to get Dalton Kincaid coming in jet motion. Like we
- 7:54Speaker 1: talked about, this is usually a run indicator for the Bills.
- 7:57Speaker 1: They'll go that three by one, they'll work that jet
- 7:59Speaker 1: motion and then usually you will get a run to
- 8:02Speaker 1: this week side here. Usually it's going to be a
- 8:04Speaker 1: mid zone run to that week side. But that's not
- 8:07Speaker 1: what we get this time. We get some play action
- 8:09Speaker 1: on this play like we saw against the Seattle Seahawks.
- 8:12Speaker 1: So it's nice that Joe Brady is continuing that trend
- 8:15Speaker 1: of breaking some tendency and leaning into what works for them,
- 8:18Speaker 1: but adding some tweaks and layering and variations to keep
- 8:20Speaker 1: the defense guessing and on their toes. Single high pre
- 8:24Speaker 1: snap look from the Miami Dolphins, and this play is
- 8:26Speaker 1: going to end up being a checkdown to Ray Davis.
- 8:29Speaker 1: But you're gonna see here, mister Keyon Coleman in the slot.
- 8:33Speaker 1: Keep an eye on Him'm gonna go back to the
- 8:34Speaker 1: beginning of the play so you can get Ray Davis
- 8:36Speaker 1: play action. He's kind of release out here into the flat.
- 8:39Speaker 1: You're gonna get key On Coleman up the seam, and
- 8:41Speaker 1: then you're gonna get Kincaid. Come in in motion. Horrible
- 8:44Speaker 1: drawing by me. Come in in motion. Come in in
- 8:46Speaker 1: motion and kind of sitting on the curl there. Let's
- 8:50Speaker 1: watch this play progress. Keep an eye on Coleman, who
- 8:53Speaker 1: is right now the number one receiver to the bottom
- 8:55Speaker 1: of the screen. But as we get the motion, Coleman
- 8:58Speaker 1: will become the number two, will be the number one.
- 9:01Speaker 1: Watch Keon hit this seam and right here at about
- 9:04Speaker 1: the forty six, throws that hand up because if you're
- 9:07Speaker 1: even you're leaving. He sees that it is still a
- 9:10Speaker 1: single high look. He sees that he's got space over
- 9:12Speaker 1: the top and he has taken off. Gets his head
- 9:15Speaker 1: around and he's looking for this football. Josh Allen has
- 9:17Speaker 1: a chance to hit Keon on this play. He could
- 9:20Speaker 1: take it. He ends up checking it down to Ray
- 9:22Speaker 1: Davis for an easy conversion and a new set of downs.
- 9:25Speaker 1: This seam route from Keon could just be a clear
- 9:28Speaker 1: out route like the seam on dagger, but based on
- 9:31Speaker 1: the route distribution and concept and Keon's body language with
- 9:35Speaker 1: him throwing the hand up plus looking back for the ball,
- 9:37Speaker 1: even the sideline reaction which I'm going to show in
- 9:39Speaker 1: a minute, I don't think his seam route is just
- 9:42Speaker 1: a clear out route, but it could be just that
- 9:45Speaker 1: based on something specific here that I am not aware of.
- 9:48Speaker 1: But regardless, we let the play play out. Allen just
- 9:52Speaker 1: checks it down to Ray Davis. We get a nice
- 9:54Speaker 1: easy completion. Here's where I'm gonna pause to show some
- 9:57Speaker 1: of the sideline reaction you see down here, Rasul Douglas here,
- 10:01Speaker 1: you see here, and you see here everybody kind of
- 10:03Speaker 1: pointing to Keon Coleman for that shot play there, which
- 10:07Speaker 1: again would have been fine if Alan took it. It's
- 10:10Speaker 1: second and two. There's a ton of space here, and
- 10:12Speaker 1: based on what you see pre and post snap, single
- 10:16Speaker 1: high pre snap plus single high post snap, that seam
- 10:20Speaker 1: is viable. And then even more so because it looks
- 10:23Speaker 1: like the Dolphins have a coverage bust here where they
- 10:25Speaker 1: just let Keon loose and that post safety is shaded
- 10:29Speaker 1: towards the other side of the field, so there is
- 10:31Speaker 1: good space for Keon. I don't know if Allen didn't
- 10:34Speaker 1: see it, or again if it is just a clear
- 10:36Speaker 1: out route, or if he predetermined his read either way
- 10:39Speaker 1: Shop was potentially there or maybe not potentially there. But
- 10:43Speaker 1: Alan again staying on schedule, allowing this team to continue
- 10:47Speaker 1: to work. This is easy pitch and catch again. He
- 10:49Speaker 1: checks it down to ray Davis. There's Ray Davis. Easy
- 10:52Speaker 1: first down. I wanted to call out the scene because
- 10:56Speaker 1: I know some people are going to see it and think,
- 10:58Speaker 1: you know, this is this part of the read. Why
- 11:01Speaker 1: didn't he throw it? So I wanted to address that.
- 11:03Speaker 1: But this play still goes within the concept of again,
- 11:08Speaker 1: easy pitch and catch, stay on schedule. Look at all
- 11:11Speaker 1: the space. Look where all these defenders are in relation
- 11:15Speaker 1: to Kincaid, in relation to Coleman, and Ray Davis is
- 11:20Speaker 1: all here, all by his loansome. This is nice and
- 11:22Speaker 1: again and second and two. So you're gonna get this
- 11:24Speaker 1: first down and then you get a little bit of
- 11:26Speaker 1: yards after the catch from ray Davis. He gets north
- 11:28Speaker 1: and south. Easy first down, right, stay on schedule, continue
- 11:33Speaker 1: to operate. Take what the defense gives you. That's what
- 11:36Speaker 1: Allan did on this play. This next play we're going
- 11:38Speaker 1: to look at is a second and eight chip release
- 11:41Speaker 1: completion too, Khalil Shakir. In the first quarter, you see
- 11:45Speaker 1: some reduced formational with from the Bills on this play,
- 11:48Speaker 1: Alan is going to call Shakir in. Shakiir is going
- 11:51Speaker 1: to shift. And now we get even more reduced formational
- 11:54Speaker 1: with and now we're in a true condensed look or
- 11:56Speaker 1: a more true condensed look, I should say, where you
- 11:59Speaker 1: going to get play action from the Bills on this play,
- 12:01Speaker 1: which is nice, and you're going to get chips from
- 12:04Speaker 1: mister Dawson Knox and mister Khalil Shakir. I like these plays.
- 12:07Speaker 1: I like the idea of the chip help and then
- 12:10Speaker 1: those guys releasing out into the flats or into the
- 12:13Speaker 1: hook kurtles, however you want to use them. I like
- 12:15Speaker 1: that kind of delayed release or that leak out a
- 12:18Speaker 1: little bit. I think it's a good way to take
- 12:20Speaker 1: advantage of defenses that are really concerned in getting into
- 12:23Speaker 1: the depth of their drops and hitting their landmarks. Also,
- 12:26Speaker 1: you know their eyes might not be in the right spot,
- 12:28Speaker 1: or if they look away for a minute, it's a
- 12:29Speaker 1: good opportunity to kind of take advantage of their pacing
- 12:32Speaker 1: and where they are based on alignment and depth, and
- 12:35Speaker 1: that's what we get here on this play. So on
- 12:37Speaker 1: the snap going in slow mo, here's mister Khalil Shakir.
- 12:40Speaker 1: He's going to give some chip help to mister Spencer Brown.
- 12:43Speaker 1: You see him engage. Let's watch the Dolphins defense here.
- 12:47Speaker 1: Everybody's reacting to the two man route combination we have
- 12:51Speaker 1: between Matt Collins and Curtis Samuel. Guys are hitting their
- 12:53Speaker 1: depth and here Shakir gives a little bit of the
- 12:56Speaker 1: chip help and now he's going to turn and release.
- 12:59Speaker 1: And this is where I want to draw the focus
- 13:01Speaker 1: again on Josh Allen for how he operates in this way,
- 13:03Speaker 1: and again Kuros and Joe Brady for the design and
- 13:06Speaker 1: the play call and the timing of it. It's second
- 13:08Speaker 1: and eight calling that chip help, that chip release, messing
- 13:12Speaker 1: with the defense a little bit. But watch as the
- 13:14Speaker 1: defenders drop, which they are now. Alan gets it to
- 13:17Speaker 1: Shakir early while the defenders are still dropping. And when
- 13:21Speaker 1: he gets it to Shakir that early, it maximizes the
- 13:24Speaker 1: space that Shakir has to operate. So here's Shakir. He's
- 13:28Speaker 1: starting to release into the flat. Here we go. Alan's
- 13:33Speaker 1: already pulling the trigger. He's padded the ball. He is
- 13:35Speaker 1: throwing it to Khalil Shakir. Ball's coming out. Boom, ball
- 13:39Speaker 1: is out. Also notice the ball location. It gets put
- 13:41Speaker 1: on that upfield shoulder, so Shakir can turn and go
- 13:44Speaker 1: and get up field. I'm gonna wait. Boom, there's the catch,
- 13:48Speaker 1: and look how much space we have here for Khalil
- 13:50Speaker 1: Shakir to operate again. It's second and eight. Even if
- 13:53Speaker 1: this ball comes out a little late and not as
- 13:55Speaker 1: early into Shakir's release, you still have an opportunity to
- 13:58Speaker 1: eat up a chunky yards, put your yourself into a
- 14:00Speaker 1: third and manageable. But because Alan gets this ball out
- 14:04Speaker 1: on time in early to Khalil Shakir in his release
- 14:08Speaker 1: and gets that ball on him in a good position,
- 14:11Speaker 1: it's a wide receiver friendly throw. It allows Shakir to
- 14:14Speaker 1: maximize the space and the room that he has and
- 14:17Speaker 1: the time that he has to make a play. Shakiir turns,
- 14:20Speaker 1: gets upfield immediately, little shimmy falls forward. We get a
- 14:25Speaker 1: first down and we'll watch it in real time. Watch
- 14:28Speaker 1: out it all flows out. Watch Alan's eyes reading things
- 14:32Speaker 1: out a little bit. He knows he has Shakir releasing bank. Sorry,
- 14:38Speaker 1: I pause that I violated my own rule of saying
- 14:40Speaker 1: watching it play in real time brings him in. There's
- 14:45Speaker 1: the chip hits his drop, Bank balls out on time
- 14:49Speaker 1: in rhythm, gives this guy an opportunity for some yards
- 14:53Speaker 1: after catch. That's nice. And again, you're taking what the
- 14:56Speaker 1: dolphins are giving to you. They are trying to put
- 14:59Speaker 1: a cap on everything. They're keeping everything in front of them,
- 15:02Speaker 1: So if they want to do that, that's fine. Take
- 15:04Speaker 1: five yards a pop, take eight yards of pop, ten
- 15:06Speaker 1: yards of pop. And if you get a guy who
- 15:08Speaker 1: can operate in space and who's good with the ball
- 15:10Speaker 1: in his hands after the catch, like you are here,
- 15:12Speaker 1: you get a first down on second and eight, which
- 15:14Speaker 1: is nice. Kudos to Alan there again on time in rhythm. Nice.
- 15:20Speaker 1: This next one, I just wanted to include it because
- 15:22Speaker 1: it falls into this theme of taking what the dolphins
- 15:26Speaker 1: are giving you. This is the incompletion to Keyon Coleman
- 15:28Speaker 1: that results in an interception by Jalen Ramsey. Falls in
- 15:33Speaker 1: line with what we've talked about the past couple of
- 15:34Speaker 1: weeks and the key On Coleman breakdowns. Actually, on this show,
- 15:37Speaker 1: we have a run with a pass tag. Last couple
- 15:40Speaker 1: of weeks it's been duo. This time it is a
- 15:42Speaker 1: zone week run. It looks like inside zone based off
- 15:45Speaker 1: of Cook's track towards the inside leg of the guard,
- 15:48Speaker 1: but it could be mid zone and he just broke
- 15:50Speaker 1: off his track once he saw the pass from Alan.
- 15:52Speaker 1: As we've talked about on the show, this is purely
- 15:54Speaker 1: Allen making this decision. The call is baked in. This
- 15:58Speaker 1: is an actual run call. You have the pass tag
- 16:00Speaker 1: option to Keon Coleman, and then Alan's looking at it,
- 16:03Speaker 1: seeing the numbers and trying to decide what is the
- 16:06Speaker 1: most advantageous way to attack the defense post snap. He
- 16:10Speaker 1: decides that based on the numbers, based on the box
- 16:13Speaker 1: count of what he's seeing, the best way to go
- 16:15Speaker 1: here is the past to Keon Coleman, and he's right.
- 16:18Speaker 1: And Coleman does a good job here against Jalen Ramsey.
- 16:20Speaker 1: He separates quick one foot stab and inside that is
- 16:25Speaker 1: plenty of separation. Really good on Keon Coleman. Again, this
- 16:28Speaker 1: falls in line with Alan taking what's given to him.
- 16:31Speaker 1: This is just a pure numbers game. We have a
- 16:34Speaker 1: run called, and we have a pass tag attached to it.
- 16:36Speaker 1: There's all these bodies and all these numbers in the box. Meanwhile,
- 16:40Speaker 1: I've got one on one out here and all this
- 16:43Speaker 1: space to attack. So I'm gonna throw the ball outside
- 16:47Speaker 1: and try and take advantage of those numbers and that space.
- 16:49Speaker 1: And Alan does puts it right on Keon. Keon unfortunately
- 16:54Speaker 1: doesn't come down with it. Ball pops into the air.
- 16:56Speaker 1: Ramsey makes a good play and we get that interception. Again,
- 16:59Speaker 1: Alan making this decisions off of the numbers, off of
- 17:02Speaker 1: what he's seeing. It's an unfortunate result, but the processes sound.
- 17:05Speaker 1: Allan sees what he has. Again, He's been doing it
- 17:07Speaker 1: the past several weeks. We got a touchdown a Keon
- 17:12Speaker 1: last week against the Seahawks out of it. We got
- 17:14Speaker 1: that huge play against Tennessee the week before. So sound process.
- 17:18Speaker 1: Just an unfortunate result. This next play for the Buffalo Bills,
- 17:22Speaker 1: this is a second and ten completion to Dalton Kincaid
- 17:26Speaker 1: for seven yards. We're going to get a non traditional
- 17:29Speaker 1: Tampa two look from the Miami Dolphins. Post snap, Alan
- 17:34Speaker 1: knows what he has. He's king the hook to curl backer.
- 17:37Speaker 1: He's waiting for Kinkaid to clear. But again, let's just
- 17:39Speaker 1: watch Alan in rhythm, quick and good decision making, get
- 17:43Speaker 1: yourself into third and manageable hit your receiver, just operating
- 17:47Speaker 1: in structure and taking what the defense is giving you.
- 17:51Speaker 1: So we have Kincaid highlighted there because that's who the
- 17:53Speaker 1: ball is going to. Dawson Knox goes across the formation.
- 17:57Speaker 1: This is what I'm talking about with the non traditional
- 17:58Speaker 1: Tampa two look. So you got safety here, mister Jordan Poyer.
- 18:02Speaker 1: He's going to drop down. This is gonna be a
- 18:05Speaker 1: Tampa two hole, Tampa two robber type look. So he's
- 18:08Speaker 1: gonna drop as the Tampa player or the high hole player.
- 18:11Speaker 1: Ramsey's gonna drop as a split field guy. Fuller is
- 18:14Speaker 1: gonna drop as a split field guy. So you have
- 18:16Speaker 1: your two corners as your split field players or your
- 18:19Speaker 1: split field quote unquote safeties. And then as we let
- 18:22Speaker 1: the play go here you can watch how the coverage
- 18:24Speaker 1: shakes out. So there we go. We've got your high
- 18:27Speaker 1: hole player, split field, split field, and then you've got
- 18:31Speaker 1: a edge player out here or an outside linebacker out
- 18:35Speaker 1: here as a cloud player. You got a safety as
- 18:36Speaker 1: a cloud player. So I like these kind of looks
- 18:39Speaker 1: and how how they can present some problems for offenses.
- 18:42Speaker 1: But Allen's ready for it. He's prepared. You're gonna get
- 18:46Speaker 1: knocks going again across that formation. You're going to get
- 18:49Speaker 1: a corner route from mister Quinton Morris, who's gonna come
- 18:52Speaker 1: over here. And then you're gonna get Kinkaid on a
- 18:54Speaker 1: little simple five yard in nothing crazy to it, nothing sexy,
- 18:58Speaker 1: nothing flashy. But watch Allen's eyes. He's just keying on
- 19:02Speaker 1: this backer right here, just waiting, just watching, sees Morris go.
- 19:07Speaker 1: Kinkaid puts his foot in the ground. Alan hits the
- 19:11Speaker 1: top of his drop and again waits for Kinkaid to clear,
- 19:14Speaker 1: to get into that window. Ball is on him. And
- 19:17Speaker 1: then Kinkaid does a really good job, gets the ball,
- 19:19Speaker 1: protects himself, splits the vice, tackle a little bit there,
- 19:23Speaker 1: gets forward again seven yards. This is second and ten.
- 19:26Speaker 1: The Bills gets seven yards. You get yourself into third
- 19:28Speaker 1: and manageable. It's a quick decision, it's a good decision.
- 19:32Speaker 1: It's Alan executing in rhythm, but it's also a sound decision.
- 19:35Speaker 1: Take what the defense is giving you. Even if kin
- 19:37Speaker 1: Kid gets tackled right away, it's third and five. You've
- 19:41Speaker 1: set yourself up in a better position to get a
- 19:45Speaker 1: new set of downs on the next third down. But
- 19:47Speaker 1: Kinkaid gets forward a little bit. It ends up becoming
- 19:50Speaker 1: third and three, so it's third and short. The playbook
- 19:52Speaker 1: opens up a little bit more, the possibilities open a
- 19:54Speaker 1: little bit more. It's nice Alan taking what's available there,
- 19:58Speaker 1: taking what's given to him. So if he wanted to,
- 20:00Speaker 1: you know, I just in case someone wants to play
- 20:03Speaker 1: Devil's advocate, you can watch James Cook coming out of
- 20:05Speaker 1: the backfield here, have that little option to him there
- 20:09Speaker 1: in all this space. Maybe Knox picks up a block
- 20:12Speaker 1: here and Cook takes advantage of the space down there.
- 20:14Speaker 1: Either way, there's options. Miami's given that space up underneath.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Alan's taking it seven yards on a second and tent
- 20:21Speaker 1: for the Buffalo Bills, which is nice. The very next
- 20:25Speaker 1: play here, so again we got those seven yards from
- 20:27Speaker 1: Kincaid on the previous play. Now we're looking at a
- 20:30Speaker 1: third and three for the Buffalo Bills. This one. Again,
- 20:33Speaker 1: Joe Brady ties into all of this along with Josh Allen.
- 20:36Speaker 1: But this is Brady setting Allen up for success here,
- 20:39Speaker 1: which I think is nice. You get the running back
- 20:41Speaker 1: shift back here. Let's watch Ty Johnson. You get the
- 20:44Speaker 1: running back shift helping indicate man coverage. Alan's gonna call
- 20:49Speaker 1: for him. There, see the linebacker going with him. Alan says, psych,
- 20:53Speaker 1: go back to where you came from. You see the
- 20:55Speaker 1: linebacker still go with him. So that little motion there
- 20:59Speaker 1: helps indicate coverage, as does the alignment here from the
- 21:04Speaker 1: Dolphins defense. Again, this guy came with Ty Johnson. This man,
- 21:09Speaker 1: Cam Smith here is aligned on Hollins. You can see
- 21:12Speaker 1: Hollins is already going in motion. Alan calls him over.
- 21:17Speaker 1: What happens the defender travels with mac Collins. So we
- 21:20Speaker 1: get another man indicator, nice from Brady, and then watch
- 21:25Speaker 1: the easy button that results post snaps. So again we
- 21:28Speaker 1: have these man coverage indicators. The Dolphins are gonna run
- 21:31Speaker 1: cover one robber post snap, which is man coverage, and
- 21:34Speaker 1: then you're going to get Jordan Poyer here dropping is
- 21:36Speaker 1: the robber. But watch the timing of the snap with
- 21:40Speaker 1: the motion from Mac Collins and how it creates leverage
- 21:43Speaker 1: and space for him and an easy decision for Josh Allen.
- 21:46Speaker 1: So here comes Mac Collins in motion again. His man
- 21:49Speaker 1: is trailing him. Little speed out from Mac Collins. Again,
- 21:54Speaker 1: this is third and three, so all you need is
- 21:56Speaker 1: three yards or three point two, whatever you want to
- 21:58Speaker 1: verbalize it as or as to get that first down.
- 22:02Speaker 1: Look at all that Look at all the space. I'm
- 22:05Speaker 1: gonna let it run in real time again. Because of
- 22:07Speaker 1: the timing of the motion in relation to the snap,
- 22:11Speaker 1: the leverage in space is maximized for Mac Hollins, his
- 22:14Speaker 1: man has to go over the top of the route
- 22:17Speaker 1: from Knox. Let's watch it in real time here, have
- 22:20Speaker 1: it set up. Call for Holland's in motion. I'm gonna
- 22:23Speaker 1: pause it before we go in real time again. Watch
- 22:25Speaker 1: Knox go up. Run a little bit of interference here.
- 22:27Speaker 1: He's just trying to occupy this guy and run some
- 22:29Speaker 1: interference and obstruction for this guy, which is exactly what happens.
- 22:32Speaker 1: He comes in motion with Hollins can't undercut it. He
- 22:36Speaker 1: has to go here and go over the top, which
- 22:39Speaker 1: creates even more space. And it's just third and three,
- 22:41Speaker 1: So all you need is three guards and a couple
- 22:43Speaker 1: millimeters past that to get the first down, and there's
- 22:45Speaker 1: just so much space. Good timing of the motion, good
- 22:49Speaker 1: timing of the snap, leverage space created again easy pitch
- 22:53Speaker 1: and catch. This is Alan not having to do anything crazy.
- 22:56Speaker 1: He gets the ball and spits it out.
- 22:58Speaker 2: That's it.
- 22:59Speaker 1: That's a nice easy button for your quarterback. And again
- 23:01Speaker 1: we have another first down conversion for the Buffalo Bills
- 23:05Speaker 1: next play. This one's also going to MATC. Collins. It's
- 23:08Speaker 1: on a first and ten with one minute eighteen seconds
- 23:11Speaker 1: left in the second quarter. The Bills have two timeouts.
- 23:13Speaker 1: They are driving, They're trying to put some points on
- 23:15Speaker 1: the board at the end of the first half. You
- 23:17Speaker 1: want to keep the ball moving here, you want to
- 23:19Speaker 1: gain yard. You have limited time left in the quarter,
- 23:22Speaker 1: left in the half. What we're going to get is
- 23:24Speaker 1: just a curl flat concept. Alan reading the curl flat player,
- 23:28Speaker 1: that apex defender to that side, and it's just again
- 23:32Speaker 1: a nice easy, simple read for Josh Allen. Here comes
- 23:36Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel in motion across the formation, and what you're
- 23:41Speaker 1: gonna get here here goes to the snap. So you're
- 23:43Speaker 1: gonna get Knocks on a little flat route and then
- 23:46Speaker 1: you're gonna get Hollins here on a little curl. Alan
- 23:48Speaker 1: is reading this apex defender right here, this curl flat player.
- 23:52Speaker 1: If he goes with knocks to the flat. He's gonna
- 23:55Speaker 1: hit Hollins right here. If the defender decides to stay
- 23:58Speaker 1: in the curl, he's gonna hit Knocks on the flat.
- 24:01Speaker 1: That's more of an outroute. But you know, you hit
- 24:03Speaker 1: my drift here, So a nice curl flat concept. Watch
- 24:06Speaker 1: Alan gets this snap. He's key in that defender. Where's
- 24:11Speaker 1: he going here? He goes He's going to go with
- 24:13Speaker 1: the flat on Dawson Knox. And look at this freeze
- 24:18Speaker 1: frame right here, So this defender's going there. Hollins is
- 24:22Speaker 1: breaking down and clearing that flat defender. Alan is already
- 24:27Speaker 1: pulling the trigger. He is set. He's ready to throw
- 24:30Speaker 1: this ball. Another example of his eyes being in the
- 24:32Speaker 1: right place, him being in rhythm, making the decision, taking
- 24:36Speaker 1: what's there, operating in structure, operating on time. Fires it
- 24:42Speaker 1: puts it right on Hollins's and this is first and ten.
- 24:45Speaker 1: And because Alan hits this pass with good timing and
- 24:48Speaker 1: good pace and good ball placement, Hollins is able to
- 24:51Speaker 1: catch it, gets a field right away, and we get
- 24:53Speaker 1: a first down. Taking what the defense is giving you,
- 24:57Speaker 1: Brady calling it, giving him some an or at the
- 25:01Speaker 1: opportunity to provide some answers. For himself as well. It's
- 25:04Speaker 1: as simple just read the flat player up. He's going there.
- 25:07Speaker 1: Look at the timing of it again. As Brooks is
- 25:10Speaker 1: going with Knox here and Hollind's is clearing, Alan's already
- 25:13Speaker 1: loaded up. He's ready to fire this in there again.
- 25:16Speaker 1: Worst case scenario, Alan hits this here if the corner
- 25:21Speaker 1: doesn't keep backing up a little bit and he puts
- 25:23Speaker 1: his foot in the ground and comes forward right away.
- 25:25Speaker 1: It's what second and two, second in one or maybe
- 25:29Speaker 1: Hollins gets tackled right at the sticks in it's first down,
- 25:31Speaker 1: but it's a couple of yards back then where he
- 25:33Speaker 1: ends up after a little bit of running catch here.
- 25:36Speaker 1: But because Allen is playing on time and in rhythm,
- 25:40Speaker 1: with good eyes and good decision making, it's another first down.
- 25:45Speaker 1: The next player we're going to look at here is
- 25:46Speaker 1: a first and ten. It's the first play of the
- 25:49Speaker 1: third quarter for the Bills offense with them being down
- 25:52Speaker 1: ten to six. This is just after the Taron Johnson
- 25:54Speaker 1: peanut punch on Raheem Mostert that the Bill's recovered. This
- 25:58Speaker 1: one's going to Dalton Kincaid, who I have, sir there
- 26:00Speaker 1: towards the bottom of the screen. It's Kinkaid just on
- 26:02Speaker 1: another quick end. You're gonna see Dawson Knox, who is
- 26:06Speaker 1: in the slot right here. You're gonna see his vertical
- 26:08Speaker 1: stem influencing the backer. Alan reads it puts it on Kinkaid.
- 26:13Speaker 1: A good drive starter. You get six yards again, it's
- 26:16Speaker 1: first and ten. You've got two field goals up to
- 26:19Speaker 1: this point. You want to get a touchdown on the board.
- 26:21Speaker 1: You're down. You want to capitalize on the momentum that
- 26:23Speaker 1: Taron Johnson just gave you. This is a nice good
- 26:26Speaker 1: drive starter that puts you in to a second and
- 26:29Speaker 1: four after this completion. So let's watch. Here comes back
- 26:32Speaker 1: Hollins across the formation. You get the blitz from former
- 26:37Speaker 1: Bill Surroun Neil. This is the backer that I'm talking about,
- 26:40Speaker 1: just influence a little bit by Dawson Knox's running a
- 26:45Speaker 1: corner route, but that vertical stem just influences him a
- 26:48Speaker 1: little bit. I'm almost like a smash concept here, like
- 26:54Speaker 1: a whip smash, but more of a jerk route from
- 26:57Speaker 1: Hollins who breaks outside and then plants is full like
- 27:00Speaker 1: going to come back in. You got the corner round
- 27:01Speaker 1: here from Kinkaid. This backer's influenced just enough. And again,
- 27:04Speaker 1: what do we got space? Take what the defense is
- 27:07Speaker 1: giving you. Take advantage of what they present to you,
- 27:10Speaker 1: take advantage of what they show. Let's watch Dalton Kincaid
- 27:14Speaker 1: and in relation to Alan, So here goes Kincaid. Okay,
- 27:17Speaker 1: Kincaid is already pacing this route. He's letting it develop,
- 27:21Speaker 1: letting it Breathe look at Alan's eyes. He's focused right
- 27:24Speaker 1: into this area. He is watching to see what happens
- 27:28Speaker 1: as he goes through his progressions. Kinkaid is coming across.
- 27:31Speaker 1: Kinkaid isn't even fully out of his break. And what
- 27:33Speaker 1: do we have again? Josh Allen is loaded up, He's
- 27:35Speaker 1: ready to pull the trigger. So again I'm gonna keep
- 27:38Speaker 1: saying these words in rhythm on time, good decision making,
- 27:42Speaker 1: sound process. Kinka puts a shoulder down a little bit,
- 27:46Speaker 1: almost breaks in, gets a feel, but the momentum kind
- 27:48Speaker 1: of throws him back a little bit. So again, what
- 27:50Speaker 1: do we get six yards on a first and ten?
- 27:53Speaker 1: Good drive starter for the Buffalo Bills. Now we have
- 27:57Speaker 1: the very next play after that. So we just saw
- 28:00Speaker 1: a completion a Dalton Kincaid on first and ten gets
- 28:02Speaker 1: six yards. Now we have a second and four and
- 28:04Speaker 1: we're gonna go to the other Buffalo bills to end
- 28:07Speaker 1: mister Dawson Knox. We're gonna get a chip release from
- 28:10Speaker 1: Dawson Knox similar to what we saw earlier from him
- 28:13Speaker 1: and Shakira on the completion to Shakiir. But I want
- 28:15Speaker 1: you to watch the timing of this one. It's still
- 28:17Speaker 1: a good decision by Alan, but he doesn't get this
- 28:20Speaker 1: one out as early to Knox as he did to Shakir.
- 28:24Speaker 1: This gives Knox less room to operate. It allows Miami
- 28:27Speaker 1: to trigger and close on Dawson Knox a bit. But
- 28:31Speaker 1: it's still a first down game because Alan is again
- 28:34Speaker 1: taking what's being given to him. He takes the free profit.
- 28:37Speaker 1: He hits his man in space on second and short
- 28:39Speaker 1: and gets an easy first down. So let's watch the
- 28:41Speaker 1: play develop. Okay, we get some play action. Knox is
- 28:45Speaker 1: gonna help a little bit, just a quick little punch
- 28:48Speaker 1: there to Kalaius Campbell. He's going to release. Now. Remember
- 28:51Speaker 1: when we talked about what Alan did with Shakiir, if
- 28:54Speaker 1: this was Shakir on that play we showed earlier. Right
- 28:56Speaker 1: as Shaki was releasing and coming out, Alan's eyes were
- 28:59Speaker 1: already on him, and the ball was about to be
- 29:01Speaker 1: on him. But Alan's letting this one play out a
- 29:04Speaker 1: bit more. He's reading it also again, different concept in
- 29:07Speaker 1: terms of and down in distance and situation and what's
- 29:09Speaker 1: going on. So he's reading the concept a little bit,
- 29:13Speaker 1: seeing what's going on with Hollins and Kincaid here. His
- 29:16Speaker 1: eyes bring him to this side. He looks, it's not there.
- 29:21Speaker 1: The defenders are starting to trigger now based off of
- 29:24Speaker 1: what Alan is doing. So the ball just comes out
- 29:26Speaker 1: a little later to Knox versus when Alan spit it
- 29:30Speaker 1: out to Shakiir earlier in this episode. So now not
- 29:34Speaker 1: as much room to operate for Knox as there was
- 29:37Speaker 1: for Shakira earlier. But because it's only second and four,
- 29:41Speaker 1: again a sound process, take what the defense is giving you.
- 29:44Speaker 1: Alan drops back, He reads it out, He sees what's happening.
- 29:48Speaker 1: His eyes take him through his reads, and his progressions
- 29:52Speaker 1: is like, you know what, I don't need to push
- 29:54Speaker 1: that there. I don't need to try and fire this
- 29:57Speaker 1: to this hole here and try and hit it to
- 30:00Speaker 1: Kincaid on this sale route. I don't need to do that.
- 30:03Speaker 1: It's second and four. Let me check this thing down
- 30:06Speaker 1: and again Knox gets the first down. But worst case scenario,
- 30:08Speaker 1: if he doesn't, it's still what third and two, third
- 30:11Speaker 1: and one. It's second and four right now. So if
- 30:13Speaker 1: he even he gets tackled right away, third and one,
- 30:16Speaker 1: third and two, even if he drops it, it's third
- 30:18Speaker 1: and four. Okay, But it's still less risk than trying
- 30:20Speaker 1: to throw that ball to a spot with kinkaid. But
- 30:23Speaker 1: your odds of success, the probability of it being a
- 30:25Speaker 1: completion or higher with the checkdown here. So again another
- 30:28Speaker 1: example of sound process for Josh Allen, Knox puts his
- 30:32Speaker 1: head down, we get a first down. I played it
- 30:34Speaker 1: in real time one more time, just so you can
- 30:36Speaker 1: get a sense of the timing of all of it.
- 30:38Speaker 1: Top your drop, get through, check it down, Take the profit,
- 30:43Speaker 1: Take what the defense is giving you. Take what the
- 30:45Speaker 1: defense is giving you. That's the theme of this episode.
- 30:48Speaker 1: That was the theme of this game between Josh Allen
- 30:51Speaker 1: and mister Joe Brady. This next one is a second
- 30:54Speaker 1: and four tunnel screen two Khalil Shakir. This one again
- 30:57Speaker 1: Joe Brady dialing up some easy buttons for Alan. Hey,
- 31:01Speaker 1: just catch it, spit it out. Let your playmakers do
- 31:03Speaker 1: some of the work. Get the ball into Shakir's hands,
- 31:06Speaker 1: let him create after the catch and chew some yards up.
- 31:09Speaker 1: Alan doesn't have to think too much. It's nothing too
- 31:12Speaker 1: tremendously physically or mentally taxing on Josh Allen. He gets
- 31:16Speaker 1: the ball, he spits it out to Shakir. What's funny
- 31:18Speaker 1: is you'll notice Poyer kind of calls this out a
- 31:21Speaker 1: little bit. Maybe Jordan Brooks does as well. As we
- 31:23Speaker 1: get closer to the snap, watch as we go here,
- 31:27Speaker 1: see Poyer communicating a little bit. You see that arm
- 31:30Speaker 1: out there. Now, watch Brooks. He maybe Poyer saying something there,
- 31:34Speaker 1: and Brooks is also calling it out. So the Dolphins
- 31:38Speaker 1: have a decent beat on it. See the trigger. Poyer's
- 31:42Speaker 1: gonna go, Brooks is gonna go. But again, it's just
- 31:44Speaker 1: your playmakers making some plays. Starting with Dion Dawkins. Good
- 31:48Speaker 1: left tackle, athletic good in space. Watch him get out
- 31:52Speaker 1: here and just erase Jordan Poyer. Also not a bad
- 31:57Speaker 1: job from Kincaid as well. Kinkaid getting the block on
- 32:00Speaker 1: the corner. He does his job. Here goes Dion Dawkins
- 32:04Speaker 1: seventy three. He's lining up Poyer. Boom, full body envelops
- 32:12Speaker 1: Poyer takes him out. And now you've got a block here,
- 32:15Speaker 1: which is nice. You've got a block here that was nice.
- 32:17Speaker 1: You've got that seal, You've got this alley here for
- 32:20Speaker 1: Secure to operate. Here comes Jordan Brooks untouched. And this
- 32:25Speaker 1: is Shakir just making a play. We talk about it
- 32:27Speaker 1: on the show. Once he gets the ball in his hands,
- 32:28Speaker 1: he's like a running back. He runs through the arm
- 32:31Speaker 1: tackle of an actual linebacker, continues forward, gets through another
- 32:36Speaker 1: arm tackle, carries a corner on his back for a
- 32:39Speaker 1: little bit, and gets down into the low red zone.
- 32:43Speaker 1: So this one, Alan has obviously taken what is given
- 32:47Speaker 1: to him, but it's the call from Brady on this one,
- 32:49Speaker 1: this is Brady also taking what's being given. Right, Let's
- 32:52Speaker 1: call this play based on the look we're anticipating that
- 32:55Speaker 1: we're gonna get from the Dolphins, but also knowing the
- 32:58Speaker 1: playmakers that we have. Let's get the ball into Khalils
- 33:00Speaker 1: Shakir's hands. Let's let him do the work for Alan
- 33:05Speaker 1: and generate some yards after catch. Kalil Secure continues to
- 33:07Speaker 1: find success on these Again, he's like a running back
- 33:09Speaker 1: once the ball is in his hands. The vision, the footwork,
- 33:13Speaker 1: the contact, balance, the physicality, the athleticism, the drive. It's
- 33:17Speaker 1: nice to see gets upfield again. Major shout out to
- 33:21Speaker 1: Dion Dawkins and Kincaid for setting the table with their
- 33:23Speaker 1: good blocks. Even David Everwards. You see him seventy six
- 33:26Speaker 1: getting out there in front of hand number ninety doing
- 33:28Speaker 1: what he can. Shakira makes a guy miss, executes on
- 33:33Speaker 1: that easy button, right, easy button, taking what the defense
- 33:36Speaker 1: is giving you. This next one second in three for
- 33:39Speaker 1: of the Buffalo Bills, this is the mesh Rail Ray
- 33:42Speaker 1: Davis touchdown. The Dolphins are going to have a cover
- 33:46Speaker 1: one blitz and they're gonna blow coverage. We're gonna show
- 33:49Speaker 1: it here as we go forward. But at the end
- 33:51Speaker 1: of the day, this play still falls into the theme
- 33:53Speaker 1: of Alan taking what's there. It happens to be his
- 33:57Speaker 1: primary read in his progression, so his eyes are already
- 33:59Speaker 1: gonna take him to that spot as we go through this.
- 34:01Speaker 1: But another example of just taking what you are being given.
- 34:05Speaker 1: So let's watch the play first, let's talk about what
- 34:07Speaker 1: Miami's doing. So we see one, two, three, four, five,
- 34:11Speaker 1: and then you've got man coverage on the back end,
- 34:14Speaker 1: single high safety Cover one blitz that we talked about
- 34:17Speaker 1: as soon as Ray Davis releases here, you've got to
- 34:20Speaker 1: have some sort of adjustment if you are the Dolphins.
- 34:23Speaker 1: So based off of what we have here, actually I'll
- 34:25Speaker 1: go to the initial pre snap. So you've got man coverage,
- 34:28Speaker 1: man coverage, man coverage, man coverage. This safety is the
- 34:32Speaker 1: one who's going to drop, is to cover one player,
- 34:34Speaker 1: and then you've got this linebacker as the low hole
- 34:37Speaker 1: type of player, the lurker underneath there. As soon as
- 34:40Speaker 1: you see Ray Davis release here, there has to be
- 34:43Speaker 1: some sort of adjustment instead. Alan's going to snap the ball.
- 34:46Speaker 1: And again on these on these mesh rail concepts, these looks,
- 34:50Speaker 1: and this look in particular as well, the primary read
- 34:54Speaker 1: is the rail. So Alan gets this ball and his
- 34:57Speaker 1: eyes immediately go to what's happened. From a coverage perspective,
- 35:01Speaker 1: he knows he's going to Davis. That's the first read,
- 35:04Speaker 1: and it's wide open. There is nobody here. See, everybody
- 35:09Speaker 1: is in man coverage with their guys. Who really cares
- 35:11Speaker 1: what's going on up here because we're going to Davis
- 35:13Speaker 1: down here. But Ramsey is going with Hollins, You've got
- 35:17Speaker 1: Walker going with Knox, and then you've got Brooks who's
- 35:22Speaker 1: in no man's land here. But even with the way
- 35:24Speaker 1: the route distribution develops, he's still kind of you can
- 35:28Speaker 1: see he's hesitating. His eyes are kind of caught with
- 35:30Speaker 1: the candy up here. He's not even fully I went
- 35:35Speaker 1: back too far. Watchbrooks here, he's not even fully triggering
- 35:40Speaker 1: on the throw. Once he sees it, he still hesitates
- 35:43Speaker 1: a little bit. And then you get bad tackling, bad
- 35:46Speaker 1: angle from the safety and Davis houses it. If you
- 35:51Speaker 1: get that push call from Miami, or if Brooks just
- 35:54Speaker 1: gets over the top and sees this sooner and just
- 35:56Speaker 1: stays with the man, you have an opportunity to limit
- 35:59Speaker 1: that game if you're the doll. But from a bill's perspective, again,
- 36:02Speaker 1: you are taking what the Dolphins are giving. This is
- 36:04Speaker 1: your primary read in this concept. So Davis is the
- 36:08Speaker 1: first read in the progression. Alan's already going to look
- 36:10Speaker 1: there first. It's open immediately, he hits it immediately. There's
- 36:14Speaker 1: no wasted time, there's no inefficiency. He gets this ball,
- 36:18Speaker 1: sets and puts it right on Davis. And also look
- 36:22Speaker 1: at the ball placement two allows him to just not
- 36:27Speaker 1: really have to break his gate too much. Davis is
- 36:30Speaker 1: able to catch it and go and it's second in three,
- 36:33Speaker 1: So you're not throwing this thinking, man, this is going
- 36:35Speaker 1: to be a huge explosive play. Sixty three yard house call.
- 36:39Speaker 1: You're just thinking, okay, I'll complete this first down. At worst,
- 36:43Speaker 1: you're thinking it's a first down in a good gain.
- 36:45Speaker 1: But Miami blows coverage. Davis makes a play and we
- 36:52Speaker 1: get a nice touchdown for Ray Davis. I like how
- 36:54Speaker 1: he continues through, goes right to the crowd, get a
- 36:57Speaker 1: little buffalo bounce reminiscent of the Lambeau leap. One more
- 37:01Speaker 1: time again, first read in the progression, your primary boom,
- 37:06Speaker 1: it's open. You're hitting it. Even if Ramsey sees it
- 37:10Speaker 1: and falls off. This guy sees it and falls off,
- 37:12Speaker 1: this guy gets over the top. It's still going to
- 37:14Speaker 1: be a nice game. It's still going to be a
- 37:16Speaker 1: new set of downs. So it ends up being explosive
- 37:18Speaker 1: play in a great play by Ray Davis after the catch,
- 37:20Speaker 1: But it still falls into the theme of this episode
- 37:23Speaker 1: of taking what the defense is giving you. Now, granted
- 37:25Speaker 1: the defense screwed up here, but what they gave you
- 37:28Speaker 1: was this free opportunity to get a first down. And
- 37:31Speaker 1: it happened on your first read. The primary guy in
- 37:34Speaker 1: the progression. Allan sees it immediately, hits it immediately on time, quickly,
- 37:39Speaker 1: good decision making in rhythm. Continuing that theme that we
- 37:44Speaker 1: have seen in this episode. Let Davis house this one
- 37:47Speaker 1: and then we'll go on to the next play for
- 37:50Speaker 1: the Bills.
- 37:50Speaker 2: Woo.
- 37:52Speaker 1: Next play first and ten for the Buffalo Bills. This
- 37:55Speaker 1: is with twelve minutes, fourteen seconds left in the fourth quarter.
- 37:58Speaker 1: It's tied twenty to twenty. Again, nothing crazy. This is
- 38:01Speaker 1: just a quick hitter to James Cook out in the flat. Again,
- 38:05Speaker 1: as I continue to say, Alan sees it quick, he
- 38:08Speaker 1: hits it quick. This ball is going to get on
- 38:10Speaker 1: James Cook as soon as he turns and clears the line.
- 38:13Speaker 1: This allows him to get the ball with time and space.
- 38:17Speaker 1: You also get the added benefit here the Dolphins running
- 38:20Speaker 1: a cover three creeper, So this edge defender here, he
- 38:23Speaker 1: is going to make it seem like he's rushing. He's
- 38:25Speaker 1: gonna step up, but then he's going to drop back
- 38:27Speaker 1: and be responsible for the flat. That helps him to
- 38:30Speaker 1: be out leveraged by James Cook, which creates even more space.
- 38:34Speaker 1: Those watches the play develops here, we're gonna see a
- 38:36Speaker 1: little shift it's motion here from Shakir. Here comes the
- 38:42Speaker 1: fourth rusher. He's going to rush along with these three.
- 38:44Speaker 1: He's going to drop. I guess it's technically assimulated because
- 38:48Speaker 1: he starts to show it, but they're trying to hide it.
- 38:50Speaker 1: So I'm calling it a creeper boom. Let's hold it
- 38:54Speaker 1: right there. So this ball is going to James Cook
- 38:56Speaker 1: out here in the flat. This defender, rookie Muhama Kamara,
- 39:00Speaker 1: has stepped into Dawkins to occupy him a little bit.
- 39:03Speaker 1: He stepped in, and then he's going to drop out.
- 39:06Speaker 1: Because he stepped in, he's already out leveraged. Even if
- 39:09Speaker 1: he didn't. If on the snap he immediately booked it
- 39:12Speaker 1: to the flat right, you still have a one on
- 39:14Speaker 1: one situation with James Cook versus an edge player out
- 39:17Speaker 1: in space. So worst case scenario, well, first of all,
- 39:22Speaker 1: this play gets a first down, but worst case scenario,
- 39:24Speaker 1: even if it didn't, Allen's process here and the timing
- 39:27Speaker 1: and the rhythm of it gives you a high probability
- 39:30Speaker 1: of success and a high likelihood of second and short
- 39:33Speaker 1: being your worst case scenario. But we get the added
- 39:36Speaker 1: benefit of trying to occupy Dawkins before we get out
- 39:39Speaker 1: into coverage. Allen sees it immediately. We're already loading up,
- 39:43Speaker 1: We're already pulling the trigger. Ball is out right as
- 39:47Speaker 1: Cook turns his head. Cook turns, the ball is already
- 39:50Speaker 1: out of Josh Allen's head. Hand I should say, and
- 39:53Speaker 1: puts it onto James Cook's head slash face mask and
- 39:57Speaker 1: look at the space the space again. This ball is
- 40:00Speaker 1: into the hands of James Cook. This corner is seeing
- 40:03Speaker 1: it and just putting his feet into the ground and
- 40:05Speaker 1: coming forward. This guy is trying to recover again as
- 40:08Speaker 1: he gets to the flat. There is lots of space
- 40:10Speaker 1: here for James Cook to operate. Worst case scenario which
- 40:13Speaker 1: you're getting into a second short Cook makes a nice
- 40:15Speaker 1: catch and athletic play turns upfield and then he has
- 40:18Speaker 1: the juice to get the first Down's watch it in
- 40:22Speaker 1: real time again, immediately on time, in rhythm, good eyes,
- 40:29Speaker 1: good decision making, taking what the defense is giving you. Football,
- 40:34Speaker 1: I've said it on Twitter, I've said it on the show.
- 40:36Speaker 1: Football at the end of the day is about numbers
- 40:39Speaker 1: and angles and space. You're winning the angle here, you're
- 40:43Speaker 1: winning the space here. You've got the numbers two. It's
- 40:46Speaker 1: basically one on one underneath there there's not a lot
- 40:49Speaker 1: of bodies to this side. Once the defense gets into
- 40:52Speaker 1: their coverage and gets into their rotations, numbers, angles in space,
- 40:56Speaker 1: take what the defense is giving you. This is free profit.
- 41:00Speaker 1: That's why Alan had all those throws on that passing
- 41:02Speaker 1: chart between zero and nine yards and at the line
- 41:06Speaker 1: of scrimmage or below the line of scrimmage. This last
- 41:09Speaker 1: one they're going to look at is a first and
- 41:11Speaker 1: ten tunnel screen to Khalil Shakir. Another example of just
- 41:15Speaker 1: being easy on Josh Allen by Joe Brady. I like
- 41:18Speaker 1: that this play gets run to the wide side of
- 41:20Speaker 1: the field, so you have the added space element for
- 41:23Speaker 1: Shakir to work with. Another example of just putting the
- 41:25Speaker 1: ball into your playmaker's hands, and then once you get
- 41:29Speaker 1: it into Shakir's hands, Khalis Shakir does Khalil Shakir things.
- 41:33Speaker 1: Alan calls him across. Okay, we're just gonna get the
- 41:35Speaker 1: tunnel screen. Dolphins drop to that side, which in theory
- 41:41Speaker 1: should help them a little bit. Again, nice and easy
- 41:43Speaker 1: on Alan. All he has to worry about on this
- 41:44Speaker 1: play is catching the ball and spitting it out to Shakir.
- 41:47Speaker 1: You want to put it into a good spot for
- 41:48Speaker 1: Shakir to catch and run. But the heavy lifting on
- 41:52Speaker 1: this play is going to be done by the offensive
- 41:54Speaker 1: line and Khalil Shakir. So this is a nice easy
- 41:56Speaker 1: button for Josh Allen. Let's throw it to Shakir. The
- 41:59Speaker 1: blocking works out decently from in angles and leverage perspective,
- 42:03Speaker 1: but Shakira does more work on this one. So he
- 42:05Speaker 1: has to first of all kind of reach back a
- 42:08Speaker 1: little more and catch the ball going slow mover here,
- 42:11Speaker 1: he has to reach back a little off frame, brings
- 42:13Speaker 1: it in, then gets forward and watch him just leave
- 42:16Speaker 1: a trail of bodies in his wake. There's one two
- 42:21Speaker 1: bodies that go down, puts his foot in the ground,
- 42:24Speaker 1: gets north and south. There goes another couple bodies that
- 42:27Speaker 1: hit the ground, making something out of nothing. Yeah, an
- 42:33Speaker 1: easy button. Take what they're giving you, complete it underneath.
- 42:38Speaker 1: You think you have the advantage out there in space
- 42:41Speaker 1: with your guys versus their guys. You have athletic linemen.
- 42:44Speaker 1: You've got willing blockers out there. You've got MATC. Collins,
- 42:47Speaker 1: You've got Dawson Knox, guys who are able to block
- 42:50Speaker 1: guys out in space. Offensive line is moving decent and
- 42:54Speaker 1: getting downfield. And then Shakir continues to show again when
- 42:57Speaker 1: he gets the ball in his hands, he's like a
- 42:59Speaker 1: running back to get upfield make a play. I forgot
- 43:02Speaker 1: the initial tackle too that he breaks some Ramsey. So
- 43:05Speaker 1: we're just kind of doing you know, the body count
- 43:07Speaker 1: on this one. A guy's going down one, two, three,
- 43:12Speaker 1: four or five and then takes two guys to kind
- 43:14Speaker 1: of bring them down there. But easy on Josh Allen.
- 43:17Speaker 1: So again that's the theme of this episode, just taking
- 43:21Speaker 1: what the defense is giving you, taking what the Dolphins
- 43:24Speaker 1: are giving you, whether it's by design in terms of
- 43:26Speaker 1: play call or play layering or sequencing with Joe Brady,
- 43:30Speaker 1: or whether it's explicitly being done by Josh Allen with
- 43:33Speaker 1: his decision making. You noticed a lot in this one
- 43:35Speaker 1: just on time in rhythm, making throws, good decisions, sound process,
- 43:41Speaker 1: eyes leading you, eyes, being in rhythm with your throwing motion,
- 43:44Speaker 1: with your feet, Alan just taking what was available to
- 43:47Speaker 1: him the underneath around the line of scrimmage up to
- 43:50Speaker 1: nine yards. You saw the passing chart, you heard the numbers,
- 43:52Speaker 1: and then we saw it here. Alan just continuously peppering
- 43:55Speaker 1: that area with the voids in coverage, taking advantage of
- 43:58Speaker 1: some busted coverages, man beater concepts, Brady dialing up some
- 44:02Speaker 1: motion and some shifts to give him some answers pre snap,
- 44:05Speaker 1: Alan executing a post snap, just a well coordinated attack
- 44:09Speaker 1: from Brady and a well executed attack from Josh Allen,
- 44:13Speaker 1: taking what the Dolphins were giving him in this game,
- 44:15Speaker 1: and allowing the Bills to profit consistently and regularly, oftentimes
- 44:20Speaker 1: with just easy profit. These Again, we went through thirteen
- 44:22Speaker 1: plays here, but there's more in this game of play
- 44:25Speaker 1: action and Alan checking it down to Cook over the
- 44:27Speaker 1: middle for a quick six yards or seven yards. Even
- 44:30Speaker 1: if they attacked it right away at six or seven,
- 44:32Speaker 1: if they break attack or fall forward, you get another
- 44:34Speaker 1: couple extra yards, maybe even a bit more. It was
- 44:37Speaker 1: a nice way to again take what the Dolphins were
- 44:39Speaker 1: giving you, take advantage of the areas that they were
- 44:43Speaker 1: leaving voided, exploiting those areas, exploiting some mismatches as well,
- 44:48Speaker 1: and taking advantage again of what the Miami Dolphins gave
- 44:51Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills in this game and route to another
- 44:54Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills victory against the Miami Dolphins. That'll do it
