I don't have to do too many rewatches because I can see the whole feel from the beginning to the end of the game.
It's great, but I still have to rewatch because last night I was teaching my son about exponents.
So it was a combination of things.
It's...
They're playing deep zones.
They're forcing them to do that.
They're giving extra attention to Tyreek Hill.
They're only rushing four and Tua doesn't have a super strong arm.
So the Dolphins blitzed a lot, but they also did some of this deep zone stuff to try to take away the big play in their tiny little windows.
And Josh Allen can rip it into those windows.
And so when they are small windows to get deep downfield, if you have the arm strength and the accuracy and the anticipation, which is what Tua used to be, like the end cuts on anticipation, then you can hit it.
But I think that a lot of teams have decided that the way that they want to play Tua is challenge him to be able to attack downfield.
challenge his team to have a really long drive without making a mistake by forcing them to check down and try to take Tyreek Hill out of the game.
And if you're going to attack us downfield, you're going to have to squeeze it into a small zone with a quarterback who is not known for his arm strength.
No, I think it's somewhat of a change.
They ran the ball well last night, but they ran the ball better in the past, which then that would cause the guys to come up and be a little more aggressive.
And also, I think the like anticipatory throws and the Tyreek Hill rolling out of these cuts into the end cuts, like I think it was slightly different.
It was a little newer.
And I think combining all those things and Tua has taken more and more hits.
So I think that's also part of it where they're like, we're going to make him stand in this pocket.
