jd, if you get a chance, can you show the big hit by Colbert at the end of the half? I'd like to see his reaction and angle. Apparently Gamepass doesn't work out of country. No worries if it's not on the list. I can check it out once I get home. Man that was a big hit.

I still want to know how it was ruled a catch.

Sure, I was planning in hitting the thread hard tomorrow. On that okay, Witherspoon was a smh play. It's like 20 seconds left in the half and he bites on a lazy double move.
I wanted to touch on the 2 INT's as I'm sure a lot of people are wondering what went wrong.

Here's the first:



We're going to run a number of concepts here. We have a dagger+mesh+2 trail concepts. The dagger is a clearing vertical down the seam with a DIG behind it. The wheel route from the TE behind the DIG creates a trail concept. The outlet from the RB also creates a trail and mesh with the wheel and DIG routes. A lot going on here. We line Bourne up in the slot with Goodwin outside and LA has both corners over on that side, revealing man-coverage. The 2 safeties are showing either a 2 deep or "robber" defense.



We run play action first and the backside safety bites hard, other than that it's cover 2-man.



When Jimmy turns around he checks the safety and sees the 2 deep look and inside leverage on the post route. This means the DIG would be your second read. Goodwin has good initial position.



You see the backside safety has realized the error of his ways and is trying to recover. There might be a window to throw to Bourne over the top but that's a risky throw. YOu can see how the dagger is meant to clear out the intermediate middle for the DIG though. Jimmy is in his throwing motion right now before Goodwin breaks. Normally, that's something you really want to see from your QB, anticipation. He saw Goodwin had inside leverage with no safety available to drive on the throw. This should be a win.



The corner does an excellent job of staying in the receivers hip pocket and anticipating the route. He undercuts the route really nicely.



IMO that's one where you chalk it up to a nice play by the defender. Goodwin could've ran his route flatter and coming back to the QB. That's the biggest error to me, if you look Goodwin rounds of his route from the 45-40 and Jimmy throws it as if he's going to be at the 42 or so. That would've help prevent the defender from undercutting the route. I don't fault Jimmy here.
in case we needed any more proof Colbert is our FS of the future. Check out this break on the ball and closing speed. He's on the far hash and it's unbelievable this was ruled a catch. There's no precedent in recent years for this being ruled a catch.

AW stumbles turning his hips. A no no with 9 seconds left in the half......

Wow that was a straight path to the point of contact. How the heck this guy fall to round 7?

He had injuries in college while playing at Texas and after some coaching changes there decided to transfer to Miami. There he was moved to CB as they were full at FS and only appeared in 7 games. So, teams didn't know much about him and with his injury history there was no way to know if he was for real. He started to get some buzz as a potential sleeper near the draft. https://www.foxsports.com/nfl/story/2017-nfl-draft-underrated-prospect-adrian-colbert-miami-fl-010817

AC!! Not many Safeties in the league that can cover that ground.

No idea but thank you Adam Peters.
I would love to keep him on if lynch would be willing to transition to President to promote peters to gm.

That play by Colbert is no joke. I honestly think that is a special play he made similar to Willis chasing down a WR.

No sh**, this was the reason I wanted Hooker so much, far hash to sideline ability is extremely rare, like Earl Thomas rare. Hooker would get there but wouldn't separate the ball, I think Hooker would come down with more INT's in our scheme, but a 7th rounder over a high 1st rounder

Colbert is the real deal

Yeah, Colbert could very well be an Earl type. However, that hit gave me flashbacks of Kam laying the wood on Vernon a few years back

I could be wrong, but it looks like the WR made the catch and made a "football move"; ie 2 steps, before Colbert took his soul.
