Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: So you think you if it the two could stop
- 0:01Speaker 1: such push. We're gonna give it.
- 0:03Speaker 2: Hell, I promise you, I promise you we will, cause
- 0:06Speaker 2: we had to think about like this here line right here,
- 0:11Speaker 2: like it's something about that line that pissed us off.
- 0:14Speaker 1: You ain't crossing it.
- 0:15Speaker 2: This is the blueprint presented by Microsoft copolot, an official
- 0:19Speaker 2: AI sponsor of the NFL. I'm going to break down
- 0:23Speaker 2: what makes a star duo like Saquon Barkley and Jailing
- 0:28Speaker 2: hurts elite players. I'm gonna give you the blueprint to
- 0:31Speaker 2: try to stop them, slow them down.
- 0:34Speaker 1: We'll see. Let's get started this super duo.
- 0:36Speaker 2: Were about to look at Jailing hurts, suit and tie,
- 0:40Speaker 2: you know what I mean, three piece and we got
- 0:42Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley with the S on his chest jumping over folks.
- 0:45Speaker 2: What makes these two a superman duo? It's two people
- 0:48Speaker 2: in one backfield, like get out of here. You got
- 0:51Speaker 2: a game plan for these two. You gotta have a
- 0:54Speaker 2: blueprint to stop these two people. You don't know who's
- 0:57Speaker 2: going to run the ball. Any one of them can
- 0:58Speaker 2: run it can say Quon, who knows. Maybe that comes later.
- 1:02Speaker 2: But now let's get into some images. With my copolot here,
- 1:06Speaker 2: I'm gonna be using copolt power technology like the pros
- 1:10Speaker 2: use every week. Let's go through this and see how
- 1:13Speaker 2: can we get to our stuff. So we're gonna hit
- 1:15Speaker 2: downs here. I'm gonna go first down. We're trying to
- 1:18Speaker 2: get some explosive plays. So I'm gonna hit game and
- 1:20Speaker 2: I'm gonna go over twenty. So first and ten, let's
- 1:24Speaker 2: see so pre snat read. It looks like the safeties
- 1:27Speaker 2: are already you can see on different levels. So the
- 1:31Speaker 2: possibility of this being a closed middle that tells the
- 1:35Speaker 2: quarterback a lot. He already knows certain areas of the
- 1:38Speaker 2: field is not covered. The thing is when you get
- 1:41Speaker 2: into a snap where this offensive defense he's trying to
- 1:45Speaker 2: minimize the plays that they can do. That's why you
- 1:48Speaker 2: study tape so you can know what to do, get
- 1:51Speaker 2: pre snat reads and make some plays. The formation is
- 1:54Speaker 2: condensed down. I love to see the line communicating they
- 1:59Speaker 2: have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven guys in
- 2:02Speaker 2: the box, eight guys near the box, so it could
- 2:06Speaker 2: possibly be a run. They are thinking about this elite
- 2:09Speaker 2: guy in the backfield, not just the quarterback. They think
- 2:12Speaker 2: about Saquan You see on the snap, those guys are
- 2:15Speaker 2: coming towards towards the line. Look at all this in
- 2:18Speaker 2: the box. We want to shut down your run package.
- 2:21Speaker 2: And you can see these guys coming off the ball.
- 2:24Speaker 2: It looks pretty good from a defensive perspective. As they
- 2:27Speaker 2: snap the ball, the line of scrimmage really haven't changed,
- 2:30Speaker 2: but you can see some leverage.
- 2:32Speaker 1: Stuff starting to happen. This guy's coming off.
- 2:35Speaker 2: He already has his guy though he looked like he
- 2:37Speaker 2: got a little shade outside. He has this guy. He
- 2:41Speaker 2: could come up and get him. Look like Philly got
- 2:43Speaker 2: some numbers. All right, Now let's get into the blueprint
- 2:47Speaker 2: on the film on how we're gonna stop this play.
- 2:50Speaker 2: I'm telling you, man Clark kitt like doing his thing,
- 2:54Speaker 2: and then he's going to hand the ball to Superman.
- 2:57Speaker 1: Yeah, suer Man's two people.
- 2:58Speaker 2: Jalen already read the defense. He see that safety is down.
- 3:03Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure this was a coach's schematic thing too,
- 3:07Speaker 2: because that safety comes down away from that motion goes
- 3:10Speaker 2: down to the tight end side. It's scheme, we're gonna
- 3:14Speaker 2: run away from the down. Safety and the offensive line
- 3:19Speaker 2: just doing a great job.
- 3:20Speaker 1: That's just sa Quon being Saquan.
- 3:23Speaker 2: So as we go to the backside of this again,
- 3:25Speaker 2: you know everybody's in the box. The problem with this
- 3:28Speaker 2: on defense is when you crowd the box and everybody's
- 3:31Speaker 2: in manning, you're blitzing. All it takes is one person
- 3:35Speaker 2: not to be in their gap. All it takes is
- 3:39Speaker 2: one person not to be in their zone, and you're
- 3:41Speaker 2: gonna get gashed.
- 3:43Speaker 1: When they got elite.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Players like Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley in the backfield,
- 3:48Speaker 2: that's two.
- 3:48Speaker 1: Guys you got to pay attention to.
- 3:50Speaker 2: I mean, look at the double team left guard coming
- 3:53Speaker 2: across helping out, giving some body help.
- 3:55Speaker 1: That's what you asked for. I like to call this
- 3:57Speaker 1: mingo blocking.
- 3:58Speaker 2: He's gonna help here first because this guy's reaching over.
- 4:03Speaker 2: Give him enough help that he can get and overtake
- 4:07Speaker 2: this guy. Then he's gonna slide and help this guy.
- 4:12Speaker 2: Then release man. This is elite played by sixty nine.
- 4:16Speaker 2: He hit three people.
- 4:18Speaker 1: It's gotta be in you.
- 4:19Speaker 2: You gotta have a heart desire to want to do
- 4:22Speaker 2: what this guy sixty nine does on this play, and
- 4:25Speaker 2: forty eight didn't have a chance. Like the blueprint for
- 4:28Speaker 2: forty eight is like fire your guns.
- 4:29Speaker 1: It's a run go downhill.
- 4:31Speaker 2: He caught that, he should come, he should be come
- 4:33Speaker 2: and meet that guy right here. If he does that,
- 4:36Speaker 2: that hole is closed. Say Kwana is going side to
- 4:39Speaker 2: side now and not north to south. But because he
- 4:41Speaker 2: going north to south, all it takes is one move
- 4:43Speaker 2: when you blisten.
- 4:44Speaker 1: If you're missing, he ain't catching it.
- 4:47Speaker 2: You guys gotta stay close to each other. You gotta
- 4:49Speaker 2: stay in your rushlings. You gotta do your job. Everybody
- 4:52Speaker 2: has a responsibility, just like my Cole Poll has a
- 4:55Speaker 2: responsibility to help me get the blueprint to give to you.
- 4:58Speaker 1: That's what we came here to do today. Everybody is like.
- 5:01Speaker 2: How do you stop the toush push?
- 5:04Speaker 1: And I'm here to give you.
- 5:05Speaker 2: The blueprint on how you may not be able to
- 5:10Speaker 2: stop the toush push.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Good luck. That's one of the most physical plays in football.
- 5:15Speaker 2: It's crazy because the quarterback sneak is like one of
- 5:18Speaker 2: the first plays you learn as a kid. Like football
- 5:22Speaker 2: people old school, they know run a quarterback sneak. Phil
- 5:28Speaker 2: has done a great thing. Man return this to something
- 5:30Speaker 2: that the league and football really having policed as much.
- 5:34Speaker 2: And that's the finishing part of guys. Pushing the pile.
- 5:37Speaker 2: It's got defenses kind of lining up all wacky and stuff, like,
- 5:41Speaker 2: look how forty five is angled in, Like you're just
- 5:44Speaker 2: gonna turn your body to the side.
- 5:46Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure he's.
- 5:47Speaker 2: Gonna get pushed out of there without even watching his play,
- 5:50Speaker 2: like you're gonna you have no force behind you, your
- 5:52Speaker 2: legs or nothing, because it's all about patience. It's you
- 5:56Speaker 2: standing there now. The defense is pointing that guys, they're
- 6:01Speaker 2: not paying attention.
- 6:03Speaker 1: You know, you're trying to go over the top. You
- 6:06Speaker 1: can't go over the top.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Quarterback number twelve usould do this too, like quarterback sneak was.
- 6:12Speaker 2: That was like the play to go to and all
- 6:15Speaker 2: these dudes just jump over and rush the ball over
- 6:17Speaker 2: like it's so hard to stop one yard push good
- 6:20Speaker 2: glucks man, Like I don't I don't, I don't know.
- 6:22Speaker 2: I don't see what we would do outside of having Halloady,
- 6:27Speaker 2: Kelly Gregg, you know those type of guys in there
- 6:30Speaker 2: that are hungrier and pissed off more than your offensive line.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Like that's how you stop it.
- 6:36Speaker 2: The blueprint is a pissed off ass defensive line and linebackers.
- 6:41Speaker 2: If you could load the box with like current players
- 6:43Speaker 2: today that you think like if I put these if
- 6:46Speaker 2: I put these people in here, like they could be
- 6:48Speaker 2: able to sep who would you put in that box?
- 6:50Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 6:50Speaker 2: I would have to if I go back, If you
- 6:51Speaker 2: asking me if I'm going back, like I gotta give
- 6:53Speaker 2: the blueprint. So no, I'm coming back with my guys.
- 6:56Speaker 2: I just want my defense. Just give me my defense.
- 6:58Speaker 2: Just give me the Baltimore Raven.
- 7:00Speaker 1: The defense that I had. Like that's enough. I think
- 7:02Speaker 1: we more physical push.
- 7:06Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna give it. We're gonna give it, hell,
- 7:08Speaker 2: I promise you. I promise you we will because we
- 7:10Speaker 2: had to think about like this here line right here,
- 7:15Speaker 2: like it's something about that line that pissed us off.
- 7:18Speaker 2: You ain't crossing them. Just don't let them run a
- 7:20Speaker 2: fake or nothing. That's why we have blueprint.
- 7:22Speaker 1: We have the faith.
- 7:25Speaker 2: So yeah, see how you're getting all aggressive pre snap
- 7:29Speaker 2: read Philly has done their homework. We touch push everybody,
- 7:33Speaker 2: but on this time we're not gonna do it. We're
- 7:35Speaker 2: gonna appear to touch, push.
- 7:37Speaker 1: And fake it. You gotta be prepared for everything.
- 7:40Speaker 2: But at the same time, you know, God's gotta do
- 7:44Speaker 2: their job be that are supposed to be play your responsibility.
- 7:47Speaker 2: Blueprint is to play your responsibility because if you're playing
- 7:51Speaker 2: your responsibility on this place, somebody would be outside. Haven't
- 7:56Speaker 2: contained maybe number eight because he wouldn't go in there.
- 7:59Speaker 2: He can't stop that play, Like, what are you doing?
- 8:03Speaker 2: Like I said, it's a responsibility thing. If you're responsible
- 8:05Speaker 2: for outside, be outside. He's responsible. But now he's inside,
- 8:11Speaker 2: so it's doing your job. I'm stopping it. We're stopping it.
- 8:15Speaker 2: As a team, football is the ultimate team sport. You
- 8:18Speaker 2: understand that the blueprint is to play together. If you're
- 8:21Speaker 2: not playing together offense or defensively.
- 8:23Speaker 1: You won't have success. You won't execute well. It's either
- 8:27Speaker 1: execution or execute what you want it to be. That's
- 8:31Speaker 1: the blueprint.
- 8:32Speaker 2: As we assessed this next play, everybody can't do this.
- 8:35Speaker 2: Only a super athlete could do this. So it's funny
- 8:39Speaker 2: like to see this jump over it bring back flashback
- 8:41Speaker 2: cause I actually played against Philly.
- 8:43Speaker 1: Cue the video if you want to. I got jumped over.
- 8:47Speaker 2: You know, this is like in a lot of part
- 8:49Speaker 2: of my career and made me start thinking about things different.
- 8:52Speaker 2: But what happened was is as a technique, as a technician,
- 8:56Speaker 2: as I am. When I went to tackle him, I
- 8:57Speaker 2: actually dropped my head that one time. And when I
- 9:01Speaker 2: dropped my head, he actually jumped.
- 9:03Speaker 1: And I watched. Hi'm like, oh snap, he'd jumped.
- 9:05Speaker 2: I'm not. I wasn't really too concerned because I know
- 9:09Speaker 2: how our attitude was on defense.
- 9:11Speaker 1: We've talked about this.
- 9:12Speaker 2: If you ever make somebody jump, because I'm coming low
- 9:15Speaker 2: and hard. If we ever make somebody jump, I got
- 9:17Speaker 2: fifty two coming, you know what I mean. So we
- 9:20Speaker 2: lost the Philly second game, but we won the Super Bowl,
- 9:23Speaker 2: so we already got pre snat reed. You got safety.
- 9:26Speaker 2: Now he's back. Now they're communicating, but they still seem
- 9:30Speaker 2: like something ain't right. Like these guys are standing straight up,
- 9:34Speaker 2: you know, being your knees, get ready to play. You know,
- 9:37Speaker 2: linebackers do that. But they extended the formation a little bit.
- 9:40Speaker 2: You could tell the man could have got bumped.
- 9:42Speaker 1: Out with him.
- 9:43Speaker 2: The middles closed and it's just a routine plate like
- 9:46Speaker 2: this is just third and seven Philly, just trying to
- 9:50Speaker 2: get a first down. Moving the ball On Jacksonville, they
- 9:53Speaker 2: run a dice play, as I like to call it,
- 9:56Speaker 2: where they just putting guy over the ball, curl out
- 9:59Speaker 2: guy here, guy hearing the flats, guy over the ball,
- 10:02Speaker 2: this guy come out, and this guy in the flats.
- 10:04Speaker 2: It just looked like it's a die at the end
- 10:07Speaker 2: of it, like a five. As you can see, they
- 10:10Speaker 2: went from a middle close to like a cover two,
- 10:13Speaker 2: so they did disguise this pretty well. Jalen could have
- 10:17Speaker 2: thought it was a three, but he read it. You
- 10:18Speaker 2: could tell he read it after and he went to
- 10:21Speaker 2: his checkdown. No need to force the ball this deep.
- 10:25Speaker 2: Let me get it to my running back with all
- 10:27Speaker 2: this space in between them.
- 10:29Speaker 1: So he gets it to a Sa.
- 10:30Speaker 2: Kuan a corner on a running back, probably not gonna
- 10:33Speaker 2: tackle him.
- 10:34Speaker 1: It's like when you see somebody.
- 10:35Speaker 2: Walking or or you somewhere with a friend and they
- 10:39Speaker 2: almost fall and they say a less of an athlete
- 10:42Speaker 2: with a failing, which is true, a less athlete's gonna
- 10:44Speaker 2: go tumbling down the stairs and everything, you know what
- 10:47Speaker 2: I mean, like unbunny. But a guy who's a super
- 10:50Speaker 2: athlete can do something like this and still keep it moving.
- 10:53Speaker 2: But also his confidence is off the charts, like the
- 10:57Speaker 2: guy trustes his ability to stop somebody like that.
- 11:01Speaker 1: Good luck.
- 11:02Speaker 2: Man looked like he was just having fun right there.
- 11:04Speaker 2: Man So for me, the blueprint is you gotta get physical,
- 11:08Speaker 2: get your game up, communicate better. I don't get too
- 11:10Speaker 2: down on yourself just because somebody jump over you. Man,
- 11:13Speaker 2: it's a football play. It's just one play. It happens,
- 11:16Speaker 2: you know, come back, keep balling. That would be my blueprint.
- 11:20Speaker 2: That was my blueprint for Philly. Having fun as your blueprint, man,
- 11:24Speaker 2: keep it up. That was say Kwan Barkley and Jalen Hurts,
- 11:27Speaker 2: two lead players from Philly, and the blueprint on those
- 11:30Speaker 2: guys is try to stop them, do your homework, rush
- 11:34Speaker 2: your gaps. But they lead players as well. They're doing
- 11:38Speaker 2: the blueprint on you guys. So good luck to you
- 11:40Speaker 2: guys out there. Next time we'll get with you.
