00:00Lee Roy, what are the chances you give the Miami Dolphins of making the playoffs?
00:09Well, if I were to give you a I guess various answers would you say
00:16More or less than 20%
00:21Less
00:22Less than 20% chance. That's rough
00:25That too many too many variables
00:28Yeah, I mean look that's what happens when you know, it's no longer in your hands, here's the other thing
00:36Why are we just assuming that the Dolphins and going to win
00:40I'm not
00:41If they go to Cleveland and lose and Myles Garrett has you know, one of these miles
00:48It don't even matter because if Myles Garrett has one of those games the final score might be 6-3
00:54Yeah, for sure
00:55No hundred percent, but you know, obviously
00:59Offensive line. I know we had a good rotation last week at the guard position. You have a rotation is the crazy part
01:05Yeah, you don't want to be talking about rotation two weeks before they talk about a basketball team
01:11You ain't talking about putting Kalel wear in for for BAM
01:15Offensive lines don't operate like that
01:18Yeah, it's not good. It's not good. Of course
01:21But here yeah, I will say this the Miami Dolphins are better
01:29Than the Cleveland Browns
01:31They are yeah and
01:35The most important positions
01:39They have more stability and are better
01:43at running back and at quarterback and
01:47at wide receiver
01:49Right, yeah, I trust and
01:53And here's where it gets tricky I
01:58Believe that the Miami Dolphins defense will have an easier job
02:05Containing that offense than the Cleveland Browns will containing this offense
02:12Yeah, I uh, and it all has to do with the things I talked about before
02:19You know, I saw something that was interesting, you know, I know it's obviously late in
02:25The season and there's a chance to Miami Dolphins season may be over in two weeks
02:29So I don't think there's a chance he would have come here anyway
02:34But did you see the news my friend that Teddy Bridgewater is coming out of retirement?
02:40Bridgewater is coming out of retirement to sign with the Lions. Yeah
02:45We talked about it
02:48Could you imagine now that's it that's a Netflix movie if I ever saw one, right? Yeah
02:55high school coach coaches team to
02:58his alma mater
03:02State championship and then go win the Super Bowl in
03:05In
03:07In Detroit in Detroit after after you know people
03:13wrote him off said he'd never return never come back at all and
03:17He has an opportunity to have
03:19One of the greatest stories of all time and could have happened to a better human based off. You know, he's a good dude
03:25Really good, dude
03:28That's cool, it's unfortunate
03:31Because he was at the peak of his powers
03:34Before he had that serious knee injury. No, it was bad. It was definitely bad
03:41Leroy talking about Sunday's game
03:44Do you think the weather, you know, the Miami Dolphins all year have been trying to fight that cold weather stigma
03:50It's not gonna be freezing cold. Luckily for them
03:55It's not see 50. I would say all the way up until
04:00Maybe 40 45 is great football weather. You can run all day
04:07That's not the issue
04:09The issue is the rain and usually when you have 50 degrees rain, you're gonna have some wind
04:16it's just gonna be a
04:19miserable North
04:22Northern day usually this time of year that snow
04:26It's a little bit weird that it's rain
04:29I've played in games. How about this? I
04:33Played in games where it started off
04:3650s and raining and
04:38ended up
04:4030s and snowing
04:42So to feel
04:44Started getting slippery and getting hard
04:48So the game right?
04:51I'm going in a halftime and and you know it because they have Lake Lake effect snow
04:57all
04:58where the
05:00Basically the same thing as you know, the clouds blowing off the eastern coast with the moisture
05:07what that happens over, you know, Lake Erie and
05:12We'd be in that halftime and it'd be sunny and all of a sudden you hear the sound of the rain
05:18In that halftime, it'd be sunny and all of a sudden you hear the fans going crazy
05:23Snowing you come back out and there's a sheet of snow on the field
05:29So yeah, it's it's it's crazy weather
05:33I would say the concern would be more towards the wet and not the cold
05:40Well
05:41based off a lot of what you're telling me a
05:46Lot of the passing game should probably be
05:52Affected by the rain, but I
05:55Don't know how comfortable I am because you know, Miami does a lot of these at the line
06:01Kind of throws, you know swing running back a screen pass to John New Smith
06:06These are a lot of like behind the line kind of plays
06:08I feel like in you know, whether like this we're kind of susceptible to a fumble behind the line kind of vibe
06:16do you think that not necessarily because of the cold but more because of the
06:21Combination of the wet and the cold that Mike McDaniel will probably try to switch things up this week. Here's what I would say
06:29When you play most of your offense out of shotgun
06:33Yeah, you're putting yourself more in harm's way. You're adding a variable
06:39to it
06:40That could create some problems it's not like, you know, you periodically use a shotgun but most of the time you're on the center
06:48that's why you notice a
06:51lot of
06:53quarterbacks that play up north
06:56Play on the center
06:58Because you're trying to avoid
07:01You know those
07:03Incidents or whatever that you're talking about slippery ball ball rolls out
07:08Squeeze it too hard snap it high
07:11ball slingshot quarterback hand
07:14How many fumbles that we have this year like or snap interactions that we have this year that's happened a lot in football in general
07:22Right, like you've seen quarterbacks almost every week
07:27You know who?
07:29Wasn't ready, right?
07:32Uh
07:33When the only difference is like it happened, I want to say it happened last week
07:37I watched the game it happened, but it hit him right in the belly
07:40So he was able to catch it
07:43whereas when Tua
07:46Gets one of those it's a Rocket Man
07:50Right, yeah for sure. I mean he is
07:54didn't necessarily paint himself in the best light when he called himself shortstop, but I
08:00I don't know. There's there's just been
08:03questionable activity with the ball a lot of willy-nilly
08:07Activity I'd say and you know, I'm not necessarily worried as much as I am
08:12Here's what you don't want cold, but the wet and cold
08:16especially
08:18in a game like this
08:20Yeah, right
08:22when
08:24you are in a better situation than the Cleveland Browns and
08:28As far as key positions on the field and things of that nature
08:36What you don't want is
08:39You do not want to give
08:44free
08:46Possessions
08:49You see what I mean that means that you don't want to head give them
08:54Six possessions and then give them two more because you turn the ball over
08:58and and so if you can just not turn the ball over in
09:05most cases
09:07The team with the most talent will kind of pull it out in the end
09:12But if you don't win the turnover battle
09:15You're just asking for trouble you putting yourself in harm's way even more
09:21so yeah, I don't know how I
09:24Don't know how
09:26Mike McDaniel will deal with this. I know that
09:33Any time we had bad weather games up north quarterback would always be on the center
09:39and that's not something that
09:42the Dolphins really
09:44Rarely do they don't really do it. Yes. There's one way of securing the football and now I've seen like we even have problems with that
09:53I've even like yeah, you roll it every now and then
09:57Nothing's worse than when the quarterback get the old Kris Kringle
10:00he ain't ready for it, so his hands are just like limp and
10:04like
10:05Yeah, is it called the Kris Kringle? That's what I call it
10:11You know like your fingers do like Kringle potato chips
10:15Is it Chris like neck? Are you a critical french fries?
10:20Kringle
