Dolphins Giants Week 13 Recap

Not today's show. That's five, count them, five wins in a row. Four your Miami Dolphins for the second strade season. A fifth. Thanks when when win win win in a row to get Miami to seventeen six in the post Halloween portion of the schedule in the Brian Flores era, they are cooking. They are red hot with their fifth trade victory all the way into the bye week here into the stretch run of the season. We're gonna talk about that, the five takeaways from my nine victory over

the New York Giants. We'll talk about who shine the brightest, and we'll play a segment from the fifth quarter post game show on w q A M with myself Seth and o J from the post game show from the Baptist Health Studios inside the Baptist Health Training Complex. This

is the Drive Time Podcast. I want to go ahead and start here with the tip of the cap to Coach Flores, who all week long made sure the message was about focusing on the New York Giants, about the people that they have on the sideline who, regardless of their record, can compete at the highest level. That's what

the National Football League is all about. And we talked about this on the post game show as Seth, O J and I broke down Brian Flores media after the game, and we all could not have agreed more how good that was leading into the game and now with a bye week for coach to be very complementary of his own guys after this victory. But talking about the benefit of the late by a whole bunch more. You should go check out right now on the Miami Dolphins YouTube channel.

But back to the point, and you are all I assume lifelong fans of the NFL or at least close to it, right And if you're not and you're new, welcome in. We're gonna pretty much help you understand the game better on this podcast or try to as we go into the nitty gritty here on Drivetime with Travis Wingfield, presented by Auto Nation, part of the Miami Dolphins podcast network.

But for the long time fans this you know this is the NFL games are usually pretty tightly contested, and I think it was important for Flow to maintain that message not just with his team, but with the way he portrayed it to the media throughout the course of the week when he met with us, because and O

J said that it can be worse. But I raised the point about how it's not just the negative outside noise that can be, for lack of a better term, poisonous, but the positive press clippings can be even worse than the bad ones. And it goes back, of course, that rat poison comment by Nick Saban. He famously muttered that a few years back, talking about how some of that praise for players can be like rat poison when it gets in and they start thinking highly of themselves and

maybe maybe become complacent with how they've played. That's not how you progress, that's not how you win in this league. That's why you have a turn the page Tuesday type of deal where you get onto the next and focus on the next, and we saw that play out in this game. This was a tightly contested game for sixty minutes all the way to the finish. And that's who

the Giants have been for really the entire season. Their defeats this year eight points, eleven points, three points, a four point blowout, followed by twenty seven point blow out mid season, but then a win and then a three point lost to the high powered Kansas City Chiefs. They've been competitive, so to think you're gonna roll into a game and just win doesn't work like that. We saw it play out. Nineteen first downs to sixteen first downs. The Giants were six of sixteen on third down, Miami

was six of fifteen. Two hundred and ninety seven total yards from Miami to to fifty for the Giants, but Miami found the plays when they had to as a fifth straight win, up to six and seven heading into the bye week, and the Jets come to town in Week four. Team after the bye week, enjoy it kicked the feed up for one week here and take a Sunday off. It's been a fun month plus let's keep it rolling. But first, the five takeaways and take away

number one. The defense does it again. It started by playing more sort of this bend but don't break approach a good I thought overall comprehensive plan to play that way with the Giants being down so many weapons on offense, and you heard coach Florence talking about the names they have on that offense between Barkley and Gala Day and Cadarius Tony and Sterling Shepherd and Evan Ingram and Kyle Rudolph Davante Booker. They have so many players on that offense.

And to come into the game without Cadarius Tony, without Sterling Shepherd, we saw lots of two high safety looks. We saw Nick Needham out there at times in that kind of deep safety role. Why Eric Rowe and some of the three safety looks rolled around down by the box and did what he does so well. But they

didn't allow a single touchdown in this game. And in fact, they allowed just to field goal in the first half, and then this in the second half field goal three and out, three and out, punt three and out field goal off of a short drive after a fifty two yard Jason Sanders missed field goal put them at the minus forty two where you're really a couple of first downs away from a field goal, and then that field goal at the end of the game that was missed

to keep the Giants off the board their eleven point uh margin, and the Dolphins go into victory formation. That will play when your defense performs like that. And we know about the ball hawks in the secondary, they're well documented at this point. But did you know that Miami entered this game as the tenth ranked run defense in the National Football League in terms of yards per game? Just nine more yards today for the Giants, and a lot of that was late in this game. The Dolphins

just wins so many of those rundowns. In fact, they are the best first down run defense rather in terms of yards per play in the National Football League, at least they were entering the game. I cannot imagine that change because how about some of the first down plays we saw here from the Miami Dolphins defense on Sunday

in their victory over the visiting New York Giants. Let's do the first three quarters, since that last drive was a little bit of a different game at that point, as you have a two score lead late in the fourth quarter, the approach changes, if not just slightly so. The first down plays three yards, three yards, ten yards, two yards, interception minus one yard incomplete incomplete, incomplete, eleven yards no gain, twenty three yards incomplete incomplete. That's four

team plays. That's fifty one yards. I mean, yeah, the twenty three yard or kind of affected my point a little bit, but even still, that's three point six yards per play on first down. And before the twenty three yard or it was twenty eight yards on eleven plays, which is just two point five five yards per play.

And with the way this defense flies around on third and long, boy, you love to see them get set up and teet up on first down like they've been doing throughout the course of this five game winning streak. Over the five game winning streak that helps you get to this nine points, ten points, seventeen points, ten points, nine points. That is eleven points per game, fifty five points over a five game stretch. And again, didn't allow a single touchdown in this game. The individuals Xavien Howard

six career interception in his career game. That's the fastest in the National Football League since nine like it was last week. Andrew Van Gigel made five total tackles in the game, but it felt like fifteen. He was setting

that hard edge. In fact, he got my game ball on the post game show on five sixty with Seth and o J because it felt like he was making a play every series the past defense on third down instead of a fourth and short for the New York Giants, setting that hard edge, getting on the upfilled shoulder of that either tight end or tackle or the tight end h bat coming across the other side of the formation,

getting off those blocks and making big plays. And I think the reason it felt that way was because the five tackles seemed to be crucial, not just at the time of the game the down distance, but with the

elements around him. Like there was a play where Gink comes off a block and it looks like Barkley has a pretty strong c gap to bust through that thing, and we know what he can do with the football in his hands, but Gink, all he does is shed the block and get in there for a tackle around the shoestrings of Sae Kwon Barkley and save a potentially long gain for the gifted running back. Seeler and Wilkins all over the field all game long, all season long.

Ray Kwon Davis, same story. Adam Butler that sack, He almost felt that thing up in the press box. Jeroe Baker and Land and Roberts both playing good ball. Baker was some pressure, Roberts encourage. Damn Near had himself a pick in this game. Had some good run defense as well. I thought Eric Rowe looked to be the twenty one year old version of himself. He was fast in this game, flying all over the football field, plenty of key tackles, especially at the point, playing up around the line of

scrimmage in that role that he plays so often. Nick Needham chipping in from multiple roles. What a selfless team player he is. Byron Jones, kind of finding a rhythm after or a bit of a tough start there on. Kenny Golladay who had a couple of nice catches early on, but nothing late. And how about Jalen Phillips. Actually, let's go ahead and kick off takeaway number two with this? How about them rookies? My goodness? Actually, first, why don't

we go ahead? And hear from coach Flores, who was asked post game about the idea of the rookie Wall and how he felt his rookies from this past draft class responded to the you know, the idea that the college football season technically ended on Saturday, pre bowl season, right, so their regular seasons are finished except for Army maybe one of the best games on the history of the

planet in terms of football. How did he feel that Jalen, Jalen, Javon Liam and of course Hunter Long, the fifth draft pick playing currently for the Miami Dolphins, how they respond to this possible rookie wall idea. Here's coach, Yeah, I don't I don't really talk about it too much. I just we need those guys to, um, you know, play for us, and we'll play well. So I think thankfully they get this week to you know, rest up. Heal up. Mmm.

I think all three of those excuse me, four of those guys and really five of those guys including Hunter, and we had some others trail as well. So I mean this is you know, these guys, they work hard, it's important to them. They um, they they they're all sponges. I mean we said this really the entire year. Um, it's a long season. You know, it's hard to you know, to to to gage that and to know, you know,

how their bodies are feeling. But it looks like they got energy, they got juice either there and you know they got the right uh, the right approach, which leads me to believe that you know, they're ready to go, and we're gonna need them to be ready to go. I'm seeing the same things that you know we saw earlier in the year. I just I mean, I continue

to say this. It's you know, there's a there's a process there, and then um, I think a lot of people look at the production and I think that that's you know, that's the kind of final analysis of a player. But I think he's he's you know, I haven't watched the film, but I know there's some other games that based on some things that I saw already that um, he did better in some instances and some other things and some other games. You know, we had some production today.

Um we need that. And he's doing a good job. He's doing a very good job. We had a lot of guys that were doing a good job that aren't getting you know, you know the stats and the flash stats, but I don't think we got a lot of guys playing well. And he certainly one. That last follow up question there was about Jalen Phillips, but of course coach passed the praise to his entire class and really his entire team, as they have earned that praise over this

five game winning streak. But back to the rookies here real quick, and we'll go ahead and start with Jalen Phillips. I mean, set the Miami Dolphins rookie sack record on Sunday for this eight and a half sacks on the season.

My goodness, he's playing really well. And you watch the way they use him in multiple capacities as a stunter, as a kind of twister on those stunts, to help set picks for manual og ball off the edge, to loop inside, to be a true pass rusher off the edge, to kind of work against the left tackle, to work against chips, to work against backs coming up and trying to support in past protection. I mean, the way you can really see this, the way people impact games is

by how the opposition treats them. I mean, you're getting double teams and chips on jan Phillips. That takes a lot of attention towards him and gives other guys opportunities and that's how this entire operation works, and coach Flow mentioned the process there. That's how they want to play it. They want to give multiple people opportunities to make plays because of the entire team capacity of how they built this defense, how they built this team, and Jalen Phillips

fits right into that mold. Of course, he's a fantastic pass rusher right now with the eight and a half sacks I think it's five or six games in a row now with with a sack for the young man. So he is coming on strong here at the right time. Over this win streak. He's been a big part of that now, so too has that rookie receiver Jalen Waddle. Eighties six catches in his rookie season at also is

a Miami Dolphins rookie franchise record. Jervis Landry had eighty four back and he broke the record on a catch where he was injured. He goes down, comes off the field and he's kind of walking over and then he starts to jog off the field and as the fans see that, they start chanting whoa, who oh, And that was my favorite moments of the entire game. He's hyping the crowd up, pumping the arm up, and then he runs back onto the field helmet in hand to an ovation.

And if you haven't seen it yet, go check out two h and Waddles Fox interview with chriss A Thompson that was on the pregame show on Sunday morning or Sunday afternoon. Check that off you have not seen so because the chemistry there between those two guys has really come on to play here. I mean there's he's just he's getting after it right now. He's making tough catches. As he's loosening up and gets back into the game,

You're thinking, what a tough, competitive type of dude. I mean, we talked about the the attention that Jalen Phillips commands. They had a safety over the top on Waddle almost the entire game. It's crazy the amount intention he was commanding in that game. He still finds a way to create space and eat up yardage underneath. If teams want to go man and getting a foot race with him, try it. We saw it last week. That's what happened

against the Panthers in that game. Defenses they've got to be so scheduled incut routes, because when the protection is there and the ball is perfect, look out your one flip tackle away from the big play that kind of can change the game. He's doing it all right now. He's just twenty five yards shy of Chris Chambers as rookie receiving record at three yards to go, and there's four games to go. How about the other draft pick here,

highly drafted for the Miami Dolphins, Javon Holland. He had another great pass breakup, and this one was on a very clean and well struck, targeted hit where he puts his shoulder into the kind of back area of the receiver and that separates his hands causes the football to fall harmlessly incomplete on a third down. Get off the field. He has another pressure on a third down where he gets hands in the face and then doesn't put the hands on the head of quarterback Mike Glennan, puts the

hit on his mid set action, forcing errant throw. Get off the field. And then that great pass break up down there on the end zone with Xavier Howard where it looked like Javon might come down with his third pick of the season. He didn't, but he had to pass breakup. He is as involved as anybody on this team right now. Liam Eichenberg, I can't give you much of a take on the offensive line after watching the game.

I need the AL twenty two to do that. But he played well and Hunter Long gets his first catch of the career for for that rookie tad and at a Boston college with the rookie class man. They're doing it to records today on the same day in week number thirteen, game number thirteen for franchise rookie records, so impressive. Takeaway number three. It's two a time, fourth quarters to

a time. Giants were you know, in the course of this game, I thought playing similar to what the Dolphins defense did before the pressure kind of got cranked up, playing more off and a little bit safer and giving attention to Jalen Waddle, and he was doing a good job taken with the defense gave him. He was five

in that first half. No mistakes. That's two weeks in a row, had a fumble lost or a turnover, an interception whatever, from from to a tongue by loa, just playing patient, not making the mistake, taking with the defense plays, what where what the defense is giving you, especially when your defense on the other side is playing well, to know how to you know. The term game manager is looked upon negatively, but I think it's one of the most important aspects of playing the position, is managing the

game and understanding the situation of the game. And Brian Flores talks about that and to have mentioned it postgame about how they play a very specific situational type of football where they want to be aware of all situations

at all time. And I really thought you saw that throughout the course of this game, especially early on, where there was not really many opportunities for the Giants to create negative plays because the Dolphins had a plan and an approach where the ball came out quick, where they ran the ball in certain down distances, where they converted

some of those third downs. And it wasn't the prettiest half of football offensively from Miami, but eventually they got things going there on that second or that last drive of the half where they go fourteen plays to kind of start off the middle eight minutes of the game. We talked about that, right the last four minutes of the first half, the first four minutes of the second half, and on a four team play eighty nine yard drive that choose up almost four minutes of clock and leaves

the Giants with just twenty six seconds. On the other end, when the Dolphins, we're gonna get the football in the third quarter and New York goes down neils in the football after that touchdown drive, so you give yourself back to back possessions, and on that four team play drive to a goes eleven for twelve for seventy six yards and the touchdown throw to mac Hollins. Talk about finding a rhythm. He's over in that first half. He would

not finish that way. Just missed that record by only I think it was six percentage points in this game, as he was like seventy three point five percent, so six and a half percentage points from becoming the first quarterback ever to complete eight percent or more of his passes in three straight games. It did not quite happen. He does have a chance to become the first quarterback to do it four times, or rather tie to be the first quarterback to do it four times in the

NFL with or more completion. He did it in the Atlanta game earlier as well, But anyway, that kind of slow approach of the game that that good drive to to to end the first half. We saw it kind of fall off there in the third quarter. Just was not a very characteristic third quarter operation from the Dolphins offense. Some drop throws I thought two was off the market a couple of times. There was a pass on third down to Wattle where he had some space out wide.

He threw it high, probably should have been more outside to run him to the sideline, and the marker he has to go up for the catch makes it, but he's just short of the sticks. Kasikian Waddle both had drops. Wilson had himself a drop in that in that quarter as well. So the offense just a little bit kind of stuck in the mud. But back to Tua and

that's where the title of the takeaway starts. In that fourth quarter, after all that adversity, he kind of faced and overcame and we're still in a tight contested ball games by the fact that the defense is playing so well. But once again in the fourth quarter, seven of nine eight nine passing yards and touchdown pass to help close out the Giants. To boost the fact that he is the highest rated fourth quarter passer in the national Football

League since n in the game's most critical quarter. It's so impressive what he's able to do in those clutch moments. It's kind of who he was back in college. He's been showing a little bit of that here in the NFL as well, and he did it again today in the dolphins fifth straight victory. And I thought his two best throws of the entire game came on that field goal drive that put the game just about out of reach. They're very late, a third and six backed up at

their own twenty nine yard line. If you punt the ball there, you give the Giants four minutes, all their time outs, and the entire playbook to work with to put together a game tying drive. Nope, Miami converts seventeen

or rather sixteen yards to DeVante Parker. Then three plays later, now you've made them spend some time out so here in better shape, but still with three one left and third and four around midfield, a seventeen yard passed an absolute dime where he layers that thing over the top of the underneath coverage and a great, great catch on a precision pass for for Ghasicki to block out the defender to make that big play. What a time, and at what a time that was for the Dolphins quarterback

and offense. I thought, again, he started off a little bit slow and was a little bit more off than usual. All but that goes back to this point to be a tadbit air quote off and complete thirty of forty one passes for two d forty four and two touchdowns and no turnovers. And they one of four point one passer rating. Yeah, that'll play. And now through seventeen career games, which coach was quick to point out, is a full season, three hundred and eighty one completions on five hundred and

sixty five pass attempts. That's sixty seven point four percent completion, three thousand, seven hundred fifty nine yards. That's six point seven yards per pass, twenty nine total touchdowns and twelve turnovers. That's twenty three touchdowns, eleven interceptions, one point five passer rating through the first seventeen games of his career. Not bad, keep it rolling to a keep it going. Take away Number four two got his vante back five catches on

five targets. That's great, sixty two yards that's also great, over twelve yards per catch, and two was asked post game about what it was like to have Davante Parker back into the fold for the offense. It was really good to have Bonte back. Davonte adds another vertical stretch for us offensively, and you know he makes he makes tough catches when when you need him too, So you really glad to have him back. Very short and brief there from the Miami quarterback. But the vertical stretch element

he talks about there, that's a big deal. Because we talked about the help that you want to roll coverage over to Waddle, Well, that's probably gonna give you a one on one opportunity to the boundary to Davanta Parker, who's one of the best contested catch players in the National Football League. And you know, on those particular throws and we saw on that third and six conversion there late in the game. Doesn't always have to be right in terms of pass pro in terms of the accuracy

of the football. He can kind of be a guy that makes the play like wipes out the relevancy of the rest of the play. He can be the one that makes the play for you on those particular looks.

That's very valuable to an offense. I think he compliments the RPO game exceptionally well because he's so good on those slants and in cut routes where he can kind of use his frame and long arms to shield away the defender, and he's so precise on those inbreaking routes, and just to flat out have a playmaker down the football field like a DeVante Parker like to have mentioned there in the vertical stretch game, that's very big. I mean the contestant catches. He's been among the best since

nineteen from Pro Football Focus. He might have been knocked down a spa or two after missing some games this year, but he's still right up there. He's a huge boost of this offense when he's in there. Good to see him get a cranking Now he and the team get

a week off to get ready for the New York Jets. Finally, Number takeaway number five, Number five takeaway number five Special teams Michael Pollardi a career high sixty five yard punt average forty eight point five yards per kick field flippers Man. That was a big deal in this game when the Dolphins offense was not quite cranking at full capacity to be able to turn the field around that was big

for special teams. Jason Sanders had a miss, but when Miami had a chance to go out by two scores, he got it big time kicked there from Jason Sanders. Mac Hollins continues to be so impressive as a gunner and no monogamy to play his butt off on special teams. You love to see it. And then watch Christian Wilkins on punt return. If you wanna go back and watch the game, get a look at ninety four and the way he plays special teams. I think you're gonna like

to what you see on that tape again. Some notes here, finish up here. Good to see Hunter long to make his first career catch. Thought Savon Achmed swed some juice as the runner there and Isaiah Ford and macollins with touchdowns. You love to see that. Those guys work so hard and put in so much time. You'd love to see it pay off for them and to produce big time

here and a win for the Miami Dolphins. Will break down more on the offensive line in other areas of this game on the All Podcast tomorrow, so don't forget to check that out. Stay tuned for some postgame show work here with myself, Seth and o J. After the outro bye week coming up, we'll have some different content ideas for you guys.

It's that time's howesome game balls we don't bring all right? That

was a great job when we got hi from everybody. Offense, big drive defense, They're gonna stop again, maybe a direction We're gonna get better. We're gonna play without proper though, you're going to play without profets aren't got to get ready to go call it. Mostly it's time to percent today's game balls with Travis Sethon O. J oh, yeah, it's game ball time. Let's go ahead and throw it to our resident wide receiver O J McDuffie, who has another Where might Jews go with this one receiver as

his game ball? Maybe maybe possibly your soccer that I'm going why receiver, man, call you kid me, welcome home, Welcome back, Davante Parker, My game ball goes my man. DeVante Parker once went out to today five targets, five receptions, all for first downs, two of them on third down. Thank you, Big Seth for that that information. Man, and DeVante Parker is a different now. We talked about we

heard two of talk about it. What what he does for the offense giving those guys an opportunity out there, and defense have to respect that one on one tide for him. And he didn't come up any bigger than what he did in the fourth quarter for US man and making big plays for us. So, of course, a wide receiver every single week that they could I give every single week. I give the wide receivers the game ball. But this week is my man. I can go. I

go other places from my wide receiver. But DeVante Parker, welcome back in the game man. Great job with anybuddy. Well, if you're gonna go wide receiver every week, I guess I'll go defensive end, you know. And and I like the music so much last week, I'm gonna rewind that play it back, d J preach. Jalen Phillips is gonna get it. And look, Jalen played a good game. We heard coach Florida's talk about it. Two sacks today and he breaks a record that was originally set fifty two

years ago. Fifty two years ago, ninety sixty nine, Bill Stanford has eight sacks as a rookie. Eight and a half sacks for Janalen Phillips. I want to hear about a seventeen game season. Guys, you know why he did it in thirteen games. That was a fourteen game season back then. He did it in thirteen games. Thank you very much too, So I can count on the thirteen. So and here's another thing, you know you want to say, Okay,

well it's a fifty two year old record. Brett breck eys and just just tweet it if you're not following him. You gotta follow this man. But he went to the Allia Sports Bureau to look it up. Jalen Phillips is the first NFL rookie since Julius Peppers in two thousand two to record at least six sacks in a three game span. Think about that six sacks three game span. That's worth the second game. Ball in my he's fired up, all right, he's fired up a little bit. I'm gonna

go on the defense as well for my game. Ball on Andrew van Ginkel, And this might have been something of a kind of a collection of the last couple of weeks, because he bawled out once again. He's a balling out over this five game winning streaks, setting strong edges. You watch him get on that upfield shoulder of a tackle and cut that outside running game down. That's where sa Kwon Barkley wanted to go. The speed off the edge and the past brush game quarterback hits, disrupting the

timing of the passing game. He's getting off blocks and making key tackles. There was a Barkley run where he had daylight and beats, the block comes off, it makes the stop right there right in the gap on one of the toughest backs in the entire business to cut that thing down for no gain. His numbers, like Coach Flores said, not necessarily gonna blow you away. But the production as far as what he did was their five toll tackles a pass defense on third down. He ends

up with a pair of quarterback hits. But again, those stats do not quite tell the whole story. One guy who the numbers do tell a story on the new record holder for receptions by Dolphins rookie. You know the name. It's gonna be our fourth collective game. Ball here, wattle with it, baby, while waiting, while waiting, Yeah, solo d in the house. Lottle catches nine balls on eleven targets for ninety yards. He came back into the game after sustaining an injury. He leaves the field to wa Who chance.

That was my favorite party the entire game. Personally, eighties six receptions here in his rookies. He's in juiced through thirteen games. Up next seth Chris Chambers has the yards record. He's right in the crosshairs. I think it's eight eighty three for Chambers. Yeah, anything through whatever it was, he needed a dwive and they got ninety today. So Chris I know again he said, hey in the sixteen game season. Unbelievable rookie season by Chris Chambers. He's coming after you.

He's coming after you. Shot the solo. If you guys haven't seen the tweets or the videos of Seth and o J performing live with solo D at the MetLife takeover, you are missing out. Looks like a nineties rap album cover with those guys out there doing their thing. Jalen has eight hundred forty nine yards in this season. I'll ahead you guys, how much fun is winning. It's a lot of fun. The man. You know, we we played, We sat here in our studio seven weeks in the

row and the misery. You know, we were from hot garbage that we're wilding with it man, you know what I mean. Let's talk about where we have come, man, and we've got a long way to go. But man, we having fun. They're having fun. Man. This is what we expected from this team. Man, and so man Waddle with it him. Man, that's a great Travis Rate car right there. Man. We can all appreciate what Jalen Waddle is doing right now. As a rookie, but as a player,

he didn't look like a rookie. Like now, it looks like that go to guy. When we need a big play, a big catch, who do we go to? We go to Jayleen wattle Man. It's so much fun. And then when you got the complimentary football that coach Florida has just talked about on defense teams is playing well, then you bring back Davante Parker. This is what we expect from the state from the beginning. Now we're starting to get it one game at a time. Except for mane

game of the time. I think me and Travis roll the role right here, we're talking about man, you're ready ready, we are not well, we gotta buy weeks. We can even put that off for a little bit here. But I just want to make a couple of mentions here. This isn't a game ball, but just some more players than I thought. Se there comes the twelve game ball. How about we haven't mentioned the fact that Xavian Howard had another pick today. That's his fourth of the season

to force funnels two phone recoveries. The guy is he's unbelievable the way he does this twenty six career picks through sixty eight career games. He's the fastest to get to that. My near sception since we talked about the rookie Javon Holland three series with three third down plays in this game, you have to find out where he is every single snap, and then upfront, juice, how about some of these guys. Seeler I thought was good again. Wilkins had a big run stop later in that game.

And Adam Butler that big sachie out of Mike Lennon. I think I heard that from the press box. Yeah, it was. It was nice, man, And you know what, I was watching that sack and he got there. I think we had a little t or et game going. I think a lot of attention was paid to James David Phillips on that play. And Butler got in there man, and was clean. It was. It was so nice. We have to be we need to clean up on a

couple of sacks. I saw a couple of sacks we had, but our defenses, man, they're they're flying around and while I've got a quick chance, man, I mean I have to have to give a shout out. I have to because I know Tom Garfinkel did it already. Bik shot out to our grounds crew man, you see the field. I heard about it from Travis bro. The field was unbelievable man, and a good friend of mine, Ricky Man, he's on that grounds crew man. The field looks sick.

The stripes of the colors, that everything about the bro it was unbelievable. The way. That's the best field out think I've seen. Man. When you have a nice field out there, you gotta go out there and perform, man. So top to bottom Dolphins organization, it was a It was a home run today, you know the way everything was. Jeth you said it too. The fans showed up early. They were in the stands early, big burning carry did the let's go Dolphins today. They went out there and

they played well. The field looked outstanding. You get a win, everybody goes home happy man. So great stuff right there, Bro,
