Pardon My Take
Ryan Fitzpatrick Talking Conference Championships, Stavros Halkios And The Ravens Loss, Ohio State Wins The Natty, Bears Get Ben Johnson And Tensions Are Mounting

Well, his rules are different than every other tight end in the game. He gets to do whatever he wants, and that's just something that over time he and Patrick – I mean, they're so on the same page. So, for example, if he's got a 12-yard out route, well, if it doesn't look like it's going to be open, he can turn in or he can run his out route and then stop or he could just keep running vertical.

And for me, that would be really difficult because I was so much about the timing and getting it out when it's supposed to. But with him and Patrick, they're the same mind. It's unbelievable. He's got such a great feel for the game. And even as you've seen, maybe his athleticism come back a few notches the last few years, he's still just as effective because of how smart he is.

And you'll see zone coverage. He's going to get the ball quite a bit because he's going to be able to find those holes. Patrick's going to be able to look around the field and then find him over the middle. So it's amazing to see what he's doing. And of course, you know, the playoffs come, he wakes up and is the same old Travis Kelsey again.

Yeah, so there were two guys. And the first one, if you guys remember, Stevie Johnson in Buffalo. Yep. So we did a lot of three-by-one formations. And a lot of that, you know, the one was just Stevie on the backside. If it was man-to-man, you know, I was going to throw to him. If it was zone coverage, I was going to go to the three-receiver side.

So I came up with what we called a you-do-you route. And I would just give him the Y, and that meant Stevie – You do you, buddy. Whatever you want to do, a slant, a go, a hitch, just get open. And he was phenomenal. His releases, you talk to guys, you talk to Revis, you talk to Sherm. When they say, who gave you the most trouble?

They would say Stevie Johnson was one of the guys at the top of the list. He was so difficult to cover. And then Brandon Marshall was the other guy. Just so smart. And some of that with him was like, hey, you can run an in cut here, but if the safety comes down, go ahead and make it an in and a go up the middle of the field. But you have to really trust the guys to be able to do that.

Yeah, well, I could tell you the Buffalo fans are hoping that Keon Coleman has a big game for that reason, to kill that narrative. But, I mean, Xavier Worthy, perfect situation for him to be in because Andy Reid, he's a mastermind. He's an offensive genius.
