Here we go. It's Thursday Lions Packers tonight. Greg co selling one hour customary on Thursday live in Los Angeles. It's the Herd. Wherever you may be and however you may be listening. Thanks for making us part of your day. Yes, one hour from now, Greg Cosell, we'll talk about tonight's game, Packers Lions. We'll get to that in a second. Jmac we we witnessed something last night in Los Angeles. It was actually in Miami for many people. The curtain is closing, the end is nine. Here we go, all right, the come on, So I want to start today. The Lakers got shelled last night, lost by forty one points. First it was Frank Vogel, Get him out of here, he's no good. Then it was Darvin Ham, he's a bomber now JJ Reddick through his first twenty two games. What do you know, it's the same team as Darvin Ham's first twenty two games last season. In fact, offensive guy JJ Reddick is averaging a pointless Why because there's two truths about this Laker franchise. The roster's not good and Lebron's getting older, and they have no chance to win a championship none. Here's how far the standard has been lowered. And this is always how businesses die, the standard. I was talking to Jimmy Johnson about this a couple of weeks ago. I asked him to like coaching college or pro better? He said, college is more fun. In pro football, you have to constantly be on your assistant coaches because they have players. Unlike college where players siphon through every three or four years. In the pros, you can have a linebacker for eight years, a tight end for nine years, a quarterback for twelve years. You have to stay on your assistance and coordinators don't be best friends, be bosses. And that's the truth. The standard is so low for the Lakers, they just keep letting it go lower that their point of pride now is that in thirteen of the last fourteen games against Denver, they've lost, but they've kept it close. That's a real thing in la hey Man, we lose to Denver and Jokich by this much. That's the standard. It's crazy and how this is why the Lakers and the Cowboys, they've lowered the standard. Twelve wins a B plus guy, that's the standard down Dallas. So the Lakers and the Cowboys too many family members have a role in the organization. The star of the team, Lebron and Deck is paid more than right now he delivers. Sorry, it's true. You have very average rosters that are top heavy, on top all brand, no braun. That's the Cowboys and the Lakers, and it all comes down to a lowering of standards. It's why Jimmy Johnson had to bark constantly. I mean, Austin Reeves stop, he should be a fifth starter. Well, Dalton connect after that one big night, he's averaged eleven a game over the last two weeks. That's what he is. He shoots some threes. It's a nice player, it's fun, but he's probably a four to a five on a really good basketball team. Derek White is better than both, and he's a five or a four for the Celtics. They are winning titles going forward last year and moving forward, So it's just the lowering of standards. The Lakers are full of average athletes. They can't defend the three, that's what they are. Just got a bunch of average athletes. Last night was a complete embarrassment. But this year for the Cowboys has been a complete embarrassment. Too many family members have important roles in the franchise. The standards have been lowered. Like any regressing business, you just settle. You know, I ain't on my belt. I have to I'll just cut out another loop in my belt, you know, just yeah, I mean, I know I'm now a forty two weights not a thirty eight. But you know, east pants still, you know, I can just unbutton the top button. They mostly fit. So last night it was it was bad and JJ Reddick, the offensive guy whose team is now averaging less through twenty two games than Darvin Ham, the defensive guys team did. Here's JJ after I'm embarrassed.

Here's JJ after I'm embarrassed.

We're all embarrassed.

We're all embarrassed.

That's not It's not a game that I thought we had the right fight. The right professionalism. You know, I'm not sure what was lost in translation. There has to be some ownership on the court, and I'll take all the ownership.

That's not It's not a game that I thought we had the right fight. The right professionalism. You know, I'm not sure what was lost in translation. There has to be some ownership on the court, and I'll take all the ownership.

In the world.

In the world.

This is my team and I lead it, and I'm embarrassed.

This is my team and I lead it, and I'm embarrassed.

Yeah, but what are you gonna do? Average roster aging Lebron That's what it is. So I want to talk about Caleb Williams, and I think Caleb's having a really good season. But because the team is foreign, eight people are freaking out and we do this, we get paralyzed on records. It's all about the records. But if you can textualize anything, and I'll do that later with Lincoln Riley, but can textualize four wins? Take out the record for a second. If I said to you going into this season for the Chicago Bears, through twelve games with an incompetent franchise, a coach so bad that, for the first time ever, the Bears fired their head coach during the season, if I said, you know what, through twelve games, uh, kayleb Williams has as many passing touchdowns as Jalen Hurts. He's passing for more yards per game than Justin Herbert and Kyler Murray and as a higher completion percentage than Trevor Lawrence. You'd be kind of impressed, right in the toughest division in football if I said he has more passer rating games over one hundred than Patrick Mahomes at this point, and oh, by the way, just set a rookie all time record for the most passes thrown without an interception. It's two hundred and twelve in counting. How would you look at him? Then? Oh, by the way, he's on his second play caller. His coach just got fired. The offensive line has gone downhill from a year ago. He set a rookie record, more one hundred plus passer rating games than Mahomes, more yards a game than Herbert or Kyler Murray, as many passing touchdowns as Jalen Hurts with this mess of a franchise hovering around him. Oh, by the way, the last three losses Vikings, Lions, Packers all going to be playoff teams by a total of seven points. He didn't give up the hail Mary. And by the way, he's getting better his last nine games, twelve touchdowns, one pick. So again, I used to say this all the time when Anne and I, you know, the kids are young, they're like five and seven and eight.

Yeah, but what are you gonna do? Average roster aging Lebron That's what it is. So I want to talk about Caleb Williams, and I think Caleb's having a really good season.

Nine.

Kids are kids, right, and if we had, like, you know, a bad day the kids, something went wrong. I always said, would we have signed up for this? If you would have told me our biggest problem in twenty seventeen is one of our kids got caught doing blank? Would you have said, that's our biggest problem, You'll sign up now. Nobody thought this thing was going to be smooth. If you get out of the record, you know, the best division in football, they're losing close to Detroit, close to Green Bay, close to Minnesota. And here's another thing I like, I always say this when somebody leaves, don't just judge Jim Harbaugh's record, what he did at Michigan. What happened to the Niners when he left? They collapsed in the last couple days Lincoln Riley's Trojan six and six. There's a rumor that other schools are contacting him. USC the de Nos died this year without Caleb. It's not just where you go, it's what happened to the place you left. And through all of it, Caleb Williams, He's got a Dak Prescott quality of Justin Herbert quality. Even through dysfunction, He'll go to the microphone and he always says the right thing. This is after Shane Waldron. He has a new play caller, Thomas Brown. After Shane Waldron was fired. Ample opportunities to bury people, and once again he walks up to the podium and says the right thing.

They're not going to reinvent the will in a sense. You know we're mid season and you know that's not a decision for me. I have to I'm doing what coach says I have to do with whatever decision he makes. I'm gonna have to be fine with it. Well, I'll be able to adapt, Yes, I will. We will be able to adapt whatever coach makes decision he makes and then you know from there we have to go out there and executing one games.

We will be able to adapt whatever coach makes decision he makes and then you know from there we have to go out there and executing one games.

Yeah, Thomas Brown's now the interim head coach. He won't be the head coach. But again, whenever you go through a bad day, it could be with your kids, it could be at work. Just ask yourself, would you have signed if that's your worst day? Would you have signed up for it? I said before the season started, I said, I think they're going to win seven games and finish in fourth place. It's gonna be turbulent. I don't think eber Flush is the guy long term, and the division is the best in football. But I think if you're truthful and honest, at the end of the year, you'll look up and go, We've got our quarterback more one hundred plus passer rating games than Mahomes, more passing yards a game than Herbert Kider Murray, better completion percentage than Trevor Lawrence, as many passing touchdowns as Jalen Hurts. With those weapons in that offensive line, Yeah, I'd sign up for that. He's a block kick here and a Hail Mary there and bad coaching there from being eight and four not four and eight be paralyzed by the record. J Mac greg Cosel in fifteen minutes. A lot of positivity today, you know that's the new me. I was thinking about something we had Joel Klatt on the show yesterday, and as we've talked about, you know, a game, you know it's an upset when it's Thursday and we're still talking about a Saturday college football game. But I want to try to center this whole Ryan Day thing. Oh, because there's a lot of talk. Good luck with that well, if they lose in the first playoff game, there are a lot of people in Columbus that think it's time for a new coach, and so I just want to offer something to think about next Greg Cosell in fifty minutes.

Yeah, Thomas Brown's now the interim head coach. He won't be the head coach. But again, whenever you go through a bad day, it could be with your kids, it could be at work.

Ryan Day said he has no plans to leave Ohio state the disaster. Now they may have plans to move off. Ryan Day not saying that's right, But if they lose first game of the playoff, it's going to get ugly. I don't think he's gonna get fired, but it's gonna get ugly. So let's just start with this premise that five percent of any industry is elite. After that it's very good, good, capable, below average, awful, but about five percent is great. So, now that Mac Brown is leaving North Carolina, there's only two coaches that have natties in college football, Kirby Smart and Dabbo Sweeney. Now we've also lost Chris Peterson, Harbaugh, Urban Meyer, Saban. Those to me are elite, elite coaches they're all gone. So Kirby, Smart and Dabble only coaches with Natty's. That's the first group. We know they are great coaches. Then there's the second group that I believe can win over the course of time a national championship. Klin de Bor, Josh Heipel, Brian Kelly, Lanekiff and Dan Lanning. Steve Sarkisian don't live in the moment. Brian Kelly's a great coach. He won ten straight ten plus games seven years in a row until this past year. Like, get over it. Every coach, all coaches have bad seasons. So if you take out Dabo and Kirby, you go to the second group people I think can win. Then there's the third group that maybe they can, but I'm not sure in experience. Maybe let's go to the third group, and this is the group I think Ryan Day is in now. Mario Christobal better recruiter than coach James Franklin, doesn't beat good teams. Ryan Day likewise, Marcus Freeman really young. Lincoln Riley feels like some pop his team's lack of toughness and a grit. So I had Ryan Day and Lincoln Riley in group two until this year, I've got new information. I'm not living in the moment, but Lincoln Riley since Caleb left, somethings. The recruiting's not as good. The staff needs work. So I had Ryan Dan the second category, and then I watched Michigan Ohio State and that's, as I said, as bad a loss as I've ever seen. Now, Joel Klatt came on the show yesterday and defended Ryan Day. Although Buckeye fans may not agree. Here was Joel's take. Ryan is a very good coach.

I think that there's a mental block with Michigan right now, and this feels like something that when he gets over the home it's it's gonna be big. I mean, harbad didn't win over Urban Meyer and they.

Stuck with him.

You look at the history of college football and what you'll see is that most often, even the greatest coaches in the history of our sport have taken a while to win their championship. It took Osbourne quite a while, it took Bowden quite a while. You know, it's very rare that you get these guys that win it right away, like Bob Stoopster, Larry Coker. It's generally the opposite guys take a while. Urban Meyer took a while, Saban it took a while. So here's where I would disagree.

Brian Kelly had an off season, but he's won everywhere. He's proven every place he goes, he wins. Ryan Day never had a previous job, and so all I know is the information I have, which is he loses big games, and he's lost four straight to Michigan, and he looks like he gets out coached. I mean, they scored ten points against Michigan, Arkansas State scored eighteen points against Michigan. Michigan State, Arkansas State, whatever state scored more than ten points against Michigan. So it's one of those things where is Ohio State satisfied? They're not in Group one now, Natty, I don't know if you can put Ryan Day in Group two lane sark guys, I think Kaylan de bor are good enough. Kaylen de Boor got Washington to a national championship last year with maybe the tenth best roster in college football eight ten, twelve, something like that, So I think that's where you are if he beats a Tennessee. So for Ryan Day, the playoff is inarguably huge because let's say he goes and beats a Josh Hipel, who I think is a great young coach. I think Josh Hipel is good enough to win a Natty. He's a Tennessee coach. If he can beat Josh Hipel and they both have great players, and then he can beat let's say an Alabama or whoever he plays after that, Kaylen de Boor, then I think I'm good just going back and putting Ryan Day in the second category and agreeing with Joel Klatt. It's just Michigan's in his head thing, and that's happened before for coaches. But if they get one and done and Josh Hipel and Kaylin de Boor and coaches I know can win a tie, I really feel strongly, then the buck guys have to live with a Category three coach.

Co Thursdays, we love him. If you bet football, play fantasy football, want to get smarter at football? Forty five years NFL films, you know what, listen It's really interesting about Christian McCaffrey. So when he came to the Niners, he'd been banged up. This was a I compared it yesterday to getting an aging pitcher. Listen, can we get three big inning years out of him? We're not getting six. So I always thought if McCaffrey could get him a trophy three years, but he came to the Niners banged up. What is remarkable though, is that Kyle Shanahan has a losing record without him, and I think Shanahan's an excellent coach. What it tells me is McCaffrey is a sensational all time talent. Are you surprised a little that just taking him out there were different franchise It feels like, Greg.

I don't know if we have a large enough sample sized Colin to say that for sure. I think what the film shows regarding when mc scaffrey's not in is that they're limited in what they can do as far as the motions and the shifts and the formation variation.

This is a very schemed up offense.

This is a very schemed up offense.

When McCaffrey and Samuel are in the game together, they do a lot of things in terms of movement pre snap, in terms of formations, things that cause a lot of questions for defense is how they want to handle it and when he's not in. Even though Jordan Mason ran well for the first part of the season and gain yards maybe with second or third in the league in rushing, they can't do the same things in terms of the movement and the formation variation, simply because McCaffrey is so good as a receiver and that's the other element to his game, and it also allows Samuel to become a much better player. Samuel is not the same player because McCaffrey's not there, because Samuel is a pure receiver. Colin and I think you would agree, you would not talk about Samuel the way you talk about Justin.

Even though Jordan Mason ran well for the first part of the season and gain yards maybe with second or third in the league in rushing, they can't do the same things in terms of the movement and the formation variation, simply because McCaffrey is so good as a receiver and that's the other element to his game, and it also allows Samuel to become a much better player. Samuel is not the same player because McCaffrey's not there, because Samuel is a pure receiver. Colin and I think you would agree, you would not talk about Samuel the way you talk about Justin.

Jefferson or DeMar James. He's not that kind of player.

No, he's a schemed up player, and they can't do the scheming that allows them to be what they are.

I'm really interested on this next reply by you. So in the last three games, we both like Bonnicks out of college, and we both think Sean Payton's very smart. But in the last three games they're averaging thirty six a game. What is he giving him more to do? I'll tell you what that seventh round Utah receiver. They got that kid can play. Some of this is just their receiving course, maybe a little tastier than people thought. What is the Bonnicks Peyton relationship? What is the film saying over the last month.

Well, you know, it's funny you asked me that, because I think that the way he calls a game in certain situations, Sean Payton that is, tells you everything you need to know about what he feels about bone Nicks.

Think about what he.

Think about what he.

Did with two third quarter plays from deep in their own territory out of the end zone. Third and eleven and he throws the seamball to Mims for a touchdown, and then second and long. I think it might have been the next possession he throws. I think that's what we're looking at now. This boot pass to Sutton. That tells you all you need to know, the confidence that Peyton has in his ability not only to make the throws, but to make the right decisions, because if you make the wrong decision in your end zone, you've got a problem. And by the way, both of those throws came against the coverage we call Cover two invert where they're playing cover two, but they get to it a different way. But the thing that really stands out about Nicks is he's driving the ball. And I don't think we thought when he came out of Oregon that he'd necessarily be that kind of power thrower. You're certainly not going to say he's Matthew Stafford. But he's made drive throws with velocity. He made a far hash sideline throw this week. He's made these kinds of throws. A couple of weeks ago we showed a play a window throw between the numbers, between the hashes. He has really shown the ability to drive the football at the intermediate and intermediate and deeper levels. And I'm not sure we all thought that would be the case.

So Lamar against the NFC is unbeatable, and then all of a sudden against Philadelphia he was very beatable. Is it schemes? Is it personnel? But Philadelphia did And not only does Lamar beat NFC teams, greg he often humiliates them. It's like they've they've never seen anything like it. Blew out the Lions last year. What did Philadelphia do?

Well?

You know, it's interesting because and I never questioned coaches because they know way more than I do, and they know their teams better than I do, obviously. I mean, I sit in my office and watched tape, but I'm not there all week during the process. So what really struck me was sixty four percent of Derrick Henry's runs prior to the Eagles game this year had come out of either twenty one or twenty two personnel, meaning that Patrick Riccard was on the field.

Okay, and the Eagles they had really evolved.

Okay, and the Eagles they had really evolved.

Into being a purely nickel defense about eighty percent of their their defensive snaps since Cooper Dejine started playing. But surprisingly to me, they did not play anywhere near as much out of twenty one and twenty two personnel the Ravens, that is, as they had prior to that game. So when they lined up in twelve personnel with likely and Andrews, the Eagles stayed in their nickel and therefore, to me, they kind of played into the Eagles hands.

I thought that they would make.

I thought that they would make.

The Eagles play in a way that they didn't really want to, and they didn't really do that in my opinion anyway. So I'm sure Todd Monkin would have a different answer, but I just don't think they played in a sense Ravens football, and they allowed the Eagles to dictate the game on the defensive side of the ball.

So I'm gonna throw You may be surprised by this, but I've told everybody to take a deep breath and get away from the record. With Caleb Williams, don't look at four and eight because they've lost the Vikings, Lions, and Packers. You flip those and all of a sudden, they're seven and five and those are like last play of the game and the Hail Mary. It's not his fault. He has more one hundred plus passer rating games than Mahomes, better completion percentage than Trevor Lawrence, averaging more yards passing the game than Justin Herbert and Kyler Murray, and the same number of touchdown passes as Jalen Hurts. And that's with his second play caller, a dysfunctional head coach, and an organization that can't develop quarterbacks. So my take is, folks, get away from the record. Something's working here, Is that what you see with Caleb.

Yeah, he's played a lot better.

Yeah, he's played a lot better.

You know, we talked earlier in the year that even basic concepts he was struggling with he just didn't deliver the football, and now he is, and I mean he's really gifted.

Colin.

Colin.

You know you're close to the USC. You've seen him for the two years he was the starter of there. And the ball comes out beautifully. He's clearly and this is not a next and O point, but you can just see body language.

He's more decisive.

He's more decisive.

The ball's coming out now it's a coach's job to So there are a couple of things that the film shows that he absolutely needs to work on to even get better. He has a tendency to climb or step up in the pocket when there's no pressure on him, so he creates some of his own pressure by doing that that he needs to work on. The other thing that he's getting better at, and this is good, is he used to leave the pocket by retreating backwards. You can't do that in the NFL. Maybe only Lamar Jackson can do that, but you can't do that. No one would teach you to retreat backwards. Yeah, but he's throwing beautiful balls now. And what I really like is the innate mindset that he has to drive the ball into tight windows in the middle of the field. I'm not sure you can teach that, and he has shown the innate ability to do that.

So this next question. It's funny because for years and years I would say, Greg, you are wrong. Russell Wilson is amazing, and you were the only guy that would go. You'd go I can't quite figure it out. It's almost it's like their planned ad libs. I can't get my arms around him right. But it's interesting if you take out the Nat Hacket year, go to his last teive in Seattle, go to this one in Pittsburgh, and the Peyton year. His passer ratings around one hundred. He doesn't turn the ball over a lot. I feel like, no, in Pittsburgh, they didn't need a savior, they just needed an adult. And have you changed your opinion? Do you look at him now and go, actually, this fits perfectly.

Well. I think he's playing really well.

Well. I think he's playing really well.

And I'm sure when you think back to since he became a Starughter, there have not been many plays outside of structure. He's playing from the pocket at a really high level, and they're giving him a lot of no huddle and he's making a lot of the right checks and the right play calls. They play a lot out of two tight ends and three tight ends, and that really helps a quarterback pre snab because you know what, the defense is going to give you more when they're in their base defense than they are when they're in their nickel or dime. And he's making really really good throws, he's seeing things clearly, he's understanding what he's looking at, and he's delivering the football. He's playing right now at a really really high level.

That's great. Yeah, And you know it's funny. I've always thought that Savior tag is a bunch of nonsense. Stafford didn't save the Rams, you know, they were already they went to a Super Bowl, and Brady actually didn't save Tampa. They were a five hundred team with thirty picks from Jambs. They had all sorts of talent. I think when you get into Savior air, ind of the Jets Russell to the Broncos, when you get into Savior territory, that's trouble. And Russell isn't that in Pittsburgh because it's a very well run organization. Now, speaking of older quarterbacks, there was a pick last week by Kirk Cousins, and I love Kirk, but I thought Oh my god, it looked like a major big Bacher baseball pitcher thrown at eighty three mile an hour fat ball so olfers, zero touchdown, six picks in his last three games. Is it possible? What does the film say? Greg? Is it time for Michael Pennis?

Yeah? You know, And I'm being totally honest, Colin. You know, I don't make this stuff up. Obviously, I don't have a great answer. I mean, he is.

Yeah? You know, And I'm being totally honest, Colin. You know, I don't make this stuff up. Obviously, I don't have a great answer. I mean, he is.

It's been so uncharacteristic of Kirk Cousins because say what you want. I know there are a lot of people that may not like him because he hasn't gotten to a championship game or a Super Bowl. But over the last five, six, seven years, he's been absolutely one of the best pure pocket passers in the NFL.

That's his game. And he is making uncharacteristic.

Reads and throws and I don't know why, but they're really not good some of these, And it's obviously been very noticeable the last three games. Some of the throws he made against the Chargers this past week. I mean, I was just scratching my head. He never does that. So I don't know what the answer is. Look, they're still in it. I'd be surprised if they go to Michael Pennix at this point. I think the belief would be that Kirk Cousins and they've got a tough game this week, by the way, but I think the belief would be that Kirk Cousins can snap out of this and come back to being Kirk Cousins and again not being in the building and not knowing.

I'm struggling to figure out why Kyle Pitts is not a meaningful part of the pass games.

I'm struggling to figure out why Kyle Pitts is not a meaningful part of the pass games.

Yeah, I see had two targets last week and no catches.

Yeah, I see had two targets last week and no catches.

I don't get that either at all. Okay, before we go to your play of the week, which I can't wait for Packers Lions tonight. You know, Jordan Love's doing what he did last year. He's rocky in September and October and then he catches fire and so Jordan Love like he was at the end of last year, He's on a heater again and he's going to Detroit. All of a sudden, Matt Lafleur and Jordan Love are clicking on these young receivers. What interests you? What matchup tonight are you interested in?

All of a sudden, Matt Lafleur and Jordan Love are clicking on these young receivers. What interests you? What matchup tonight are you interested in?

Well, I think you know, we always talk about the Lions offense. I think their defense really needs to be talked about. Aaron Glenn is patching together a defense that's lost really key players, and yet he stayed aggressive. They blitz a lot, they play man coverage. I think you could easily make the argument that they have the best safety duo in the NFL. And Brian Branch and Kirby Joseph. I mean, Joseph has seven picks. I'm not sure anybody's aware of that. And Branch. He gives them tremendous flexibility, Colin, because Branch can line up and play man to man against wide receivers because he was a slot corner for them last year as a rookie. So he gives them tremendous flexibility and versatility in their coverage schemes. They can stay with the personnel they want to stay with because he can do that. So it's really their defense against Love tonight that probably to me is a fascinating tactical matchup.

Okay, so I thought one of the really interesting games, and Arizona's been in a lot of these because I really like their offense at personnel. McBride Harrison's got seven touchdowns. Say what Jawani's inconsistent. Kyle the running back Connor Minnesota Arizona was fascinating because I thought Minnesota looked a little cooked and then all of a sudden, here cam Sam Darnold with a drive down the field. He again this year we get a lot less reckless and a lot more precision passing, especially in big spots. What did you make of Donald's play against Arizona.

Yeah, I mean at halftime, if you looked on social media, you would have thought it was time for them to, you know, to without Joe Cat, you know, after the first half, and then of course the second half he came out and made some really good throats. I mean, this is, you know, in many ways, like the Lions, like the Rams. It's such a well schemed passing game. The spacing and the routes is really good. It really presents clean, defined reads for him, so the throws are evident, and it's just really a matter of time in any game as long as he has time in the pocket. But he's also shown as you know, he's a good athlete. But it's not running out of the pocket that I'm talking about, it's moving within the pocket. And I think he's doing that this year better than he ever has. And actually that's a part of the big play, because the big play I want to show came from the winning touchdown drive last week against the Cardinals, who, by the way, are a difficult defense to play against, not a lot of talent, but Jonathan Gannon does an unbelievable job with sche Maddox in his defense.

So let's go to this play.

So let's go to this play.

It was a play to Jordan Addison for twenty six yards and as I said, it was on the final drive and it was really set everything up. And I think we want to start with the fact number one, which you don't see a lot in that Sam Darnold is under center and they play under center an awful lot and run regular play action and it's a three by one set. So now we're going to get to the route concept, which is a very staple concept for them.

So now we're going to get to the route concept, which is a very staple concept for them.

It's what we call dagger.

It's what we call dagger.

So you're going to get an inside vertical by Nailer and Addison he's going to run the dig route underneath that.

That's what dagger is.

That's what dagger is.

It's an inside vertical and a dig route underneath that vertical.

It's an inside vertical and a dig route underneath that vertical.

Now, what the Cards.

Now, what the Cards.

Are going to end up playing here, even though it doesn't look like it now. And that's another part of this play is they're going to end up playing cover three. So what's cover three. It's three deep with four underneath defenders. That's what cover three is. And this is kind of base cover three. So as we focus on the two receivers as we start the play, you're going to see exactly how this plays out. You're going to see nail Or. He's going to run the inside vertical route. What that does is it attacks the safety who's got the deep middle third. Okay, so that lifts the safety and then you're gonna have Addison and he's going to run as we said that inbreaking route underneath Nailer. Now, what Darnold has to do here is he's got to beat that underneath hook defender with his throw. And this has to be a big time anticipation and timing throw, and there's the void that he needs to hit. It's actually going to be inside that underneath hook defen not outside of him. And he throws the ball really early and sticks it right on him.

This is not an easy throw.

This is not an easy throw.

Now we're gonna see this from a different angle because I think it's really really important to see this second angle.

Now we're gonna see this from a different angle because I think it's really really important to see this second angle.

So if we can take a look at that, it would be really good. YEP. So right now we're going to see this. There's Darnald.

So if we can take a look at that, it would be really good. YEP. So right now we're going to see this. There's Darnald.

Now he's gonna get pressure here, and this is what I was talking about, Colin.

Now he's gonna get pressure here, and this is what I was talking about, Colin.

He's gonna get pressure.

He's gonna get pressure.

So he has to move, and he has to move while he keeps his eyes downfield. He can't lose sight of the coverage. So what he does is he climbs the pocket. He moves very comfortably, resets his throwing platform. He's now ready to deliver. There is that underneath the fender that he has to beat.

Looko when he.

Looko when he.

Delivers this ball. He delivers this ball when Addison is literally on the numbers and he's gonna throw it between the hashes. This is big time NFL quarterback and these are the kinds of throws that you have to be able to make in the NFL, particularly against defenses that play a lot his own.
