It's at a point where We're really trying to strive to get better and better And I think it has and I think it will continue to do by the efforts not only by me But all you guys that pay attention to stuff like this and all you guys that you know enjoy it That's that's what it's about We got to find people that truly enjoy mad and talking about Madden and the ones that really want to Help this game grow and become an e-sport that we all know it can because we all wanted to be and that's the most important thing When striving out to do anything has all had the need and the desire to make it great and I think we can do that Like I said last week or it was two weeks ago because last Tuesday was actually Christmas So we definitely took a week off then two weeks since I talked to you guys in this setting and last week We talked about the man classic now Prior to the man classic happening we had another club series event another weird event thrown by a NFL Organization we really appreciate the effort that these NFL teams put towards man because ultimately that's going to open up the biggest door For this to grow and that was the Minnesota Vikings I believe the Minnesota Vikings has done three club series events all three years that club series has been a thing They have had a huge event the first two years It was in the Mall of America, which is if you have ever been to Minneapolis is an amazing mom, you know huge But because of security reasons they did do it. I believe they did it at the stadium. I'm not sure exactly where it was But it was good, you know, obviously strafing has Won it twice and then he law was the runner-up last year to win go So he was able to come out with the victory this I want to say almost three weeks ago now, but Mainly the first two games really weren't that interesting in the main game We really got to talk about is J Wolfman who a lot of people were talking about coming into this Coming into this event Obviously a new name on the scene We didn't really know too much about him what he brought to the table I and they said in the broadcast that he had played strafing in like the group rounds and actually blew him out So that plays a lot into Into playing the person for the second time and knowing what happened in the first game Not necessarily that you got blown out, but how that person plays What they want to do, you know, are they great on offense or the defense their personnel wise everything like that? Really plays a big part if you're playing somebody for the second time But that's definitely the the main game that I want to focus on and really watch Because it was really interesting to me this game. Obviously I watch live on the EA man twitch And it was really interesting man. I really liked the way J Wolfman played obviously I've played Ryan or strafing a lot You know when someone's around that long you're gonna run into him especially being on Xbox this much and Definitely a good player. Definitely his main runs and all the tournaments he's been in So he's definitely was the favorite going into this and The J like I said the man J Wolfman everybody talked about him I was really excited to see what he brought to the table and he didn't disappoint man It was a pleasure to watch him play watch him kind of freestyle I'm pretty sure what's crazy about normally when you're at one of these man events still They'll switch like the point of view to the offense all the time like you always see the offense front of you You know, whether that's I don't know what type of game capture they have video capture just capture both screens But this game We got the pleasure of just watching J Wolfman both on offense and defense They didn't switch we showed we showed all his defensive adjustments and all his offensive adjustments And one of the best things about this as opposed to the man classic We talked about last week as you are playing on different screens Like women you play at home or whenever you play at home So you can look at your play art as much as you want, you know It's something that I do and I'm assume we all do a lot when we play Madden at home And we know nobody can see our screen but us So I always like seeing not only his offensive adjustments and what routes he wanted to throw with certain times in a game But also the ability to see what he was doing on defense against Ryan against trips tight at it and whether it worked or not Now let's go get into this game. It is a once again. We got a shout out my man Compton For putting these games on YouTube making them very accessible for all of us But if you ever want to check out any games in the past and the EA venue any event you can go to Compton's page Search through all his past broadcast All the videos are uploading all of them man, but as you see here This is first played a game Ryan has the ball first strafing. I'm going to call him Ryan and Wolfman is on defense now This is a nickel normal a little bit different than some people run they keep the line spread And what happens is if you don't block anybody one of these dns is going to come free like I don't I don't know Haven't played about him against it much But I believe I played a couple guys running the same setup where one of these dns will shoot in free if you don't block anybody but This is trips tight end Which is probably the one of the best pass protecting things especially when you start motion into Y receivers like we talked about it before But the pass club series with J wall with motion in his Y receiver help block Helping to run everything trips tight end is probably one of the most effective offenses this year Probably trips tight end has been good since I mean they put it in man Anytime you put three wire series on one side of the field whether it be in a bunch or be spread out It's going to be pretty effective And also with the run as well, but nickel normal Straight out the gate is going to stop the run well Like that's pretty much because you had a forward down line and creates national gaps because I if J. Wolfman wants to blow up the inside zone. I feel like he can tackle Leonard for in the backfield But it's all up to him depending on play how Often he wants to blow up the run Another thing is he did man up his user on the running back a lot. I'm assuming to help blow up the run But one thing about Wolfman is that he stayed in cover three the whole game It was pretty much just he called the same defense every play Cover three and just made some wild adjustments. He really did make me wild adjustments As you see straight man has moss digs tirade kill Michael vick Leonard for net and pro it. I don't know Why he chose to use pro it You see a lot of people come out in the new england book and audible trips tight end so they can have a running back there Now That makes it a little more effective because you can hit a drag and hit a little flat You can fade them and have speed. I don't know. Pro it. Obviously it's not good He's not going to be 90 speed probably 80 something like that So ryan the so the really tank is tight end and we'll see if that comes to play But i'm just going to run this this game a little bit and talk to you guys about What I see and let me see play action Stops that and he hits the the crossing route that you can't give up Like the number one rule when you pitch up tight end is you can't give up that crossing route And the first play j. Wolfman gives it up. I don't know if it was a quick snap Like when you say he just stays in this cover three has the on sanders a free safety jamal adams and here he gets real crazy Nobody in the middle of the field Once again ryan runs that play action the same play but he's using it and here goes pro it He tries to hit him with the streak Pro it being slow and being bad allowed him I mean to cover both kind of bait that streak man if he had 90 speed or somebody or kiddle or somebody like that It would have been a lot harder for j. Wolfman to bait both of those But he called him on the corner j. Wolfman did a good job not giving up that streak touchdown right there Here we go again j. Wolfman get real crazy Those underneath and ron parker man. If you guys watch me play. I love ron parker. He's 20 cap Give him that little speed gem like you yield cards and he's actually 89 speed for 20 cap is really good So we go ryan hitting that little short dump down underneath and you'll see as the game goes on j. Wolfman really just starts getting crazy with his adjustments you see here like I mean He just has a flat zone everybody manned up throws it at it again jamal adams He manned up the right person boom forces him to kick a field So you'll see that the whole game man j. Wolfman really rarely ever had a safety in the middle field Really got way crazier and I went on defense, but it worked right there A lot of them get off the field holding ryan to three is a big deal especially like we talked about prior to this and in groups He actually blew ryan out so to be able to feel like man I blew him out already like a week ago or whatever it was whenever we played I blew him out now I just held him to three So you know that's gotta be thinking on ryan's head too Like man, he just helped me to three and and really just get up that one crossing route So you see as the game goes on hopefully he doesn't give up that crossing route no more. That's what you got to be thinking And that's pretty much my role when I play trips to them and you can't go up that crossing route no matter how You know enticing it is to lurk down and go get one of them little in routes or anything It's really important to not give up that crossing route That's why a lot of times that b receiver I will never man him up because he's not going to stop the crossing route anyway And you'll see j. Wolfman He does man up sometimes for other things But he mostly must have man up the two other guys that want to run drags or in routes back across the middle of the field And it goes on so on and so forth He does a good job of really mixing up his his wild defense He really definitely gets super wild and he's in his trips trio under center Which my buddy Vilma was running really early and it really becomes A nightmare because you can run really effectively out of it But it has dive and it has a toss and something that kills cover three is the toss And that's one thing after watching this game a couple times is that I mean I don't even think j. Wolfman ran the toss one time Here he goes with a little high low action to the right Makes a great read an easy read over there and those to josh gordon a card that I actually just asked him Why did he use josh gordon? He seemed that josh gordon was a little bit better than randy moss that he was using Me personally randy moss is always on my team, but if not randy moss somebody that could spin And you can see and I will tell you this about ryan is that playing him He's always been a cover three guy man. He's never been like a cover two type Let you know even in the last couple years when cover two has been really dominant Whether it be outside linebacker fire out of three four db fire and nickel bliss ryan's always been kind of a cover three guy Like he's never really been a big Cover two guy here we go with the toss and that and that being said if you're a big cover three guy And I'll tell you from like I said Vilma ran this offense a lot in the beginning of the year and I'll tell you They killed cover three Right there you see the toss kind of got bagged because of his outside linebacker was outside You see a quick little huddle here by j. Wolfman But I see how far his outside linebacker is. I think he's he's just not baseline and that's really what it is And I'll show you a little dot that I watched j. Wolfman do a lot. He used his running back very well, but here Ryan had the perfect defense. He manned up the hitch Or the smoke screen and then he had a cloud flag to cover that corner route over there So he had nowhere to go over the middle field. He guarded and running back and that there was a Good defensive call. I'm not mad at the offensive call really Here he gets to a fourth and five This is something that j. Wolfman did better than anybody I've seen so far and that's utilized the running back wheel route I've talked about it a lot of people running out a bunch a lot of people I talked about t davis early in the year and ran it drag was the first person early in the year I've seen run it but this flat in the wheel combination over here And ricky wings comes up with a big catch Great animation right there to fall on the ground. So jamal Adams couldn't tackle him I think if jamal Adams puts a hand on him or strips him Ricky Williams might drop that but he really held on to that He used this wheel route and the flat route to the tight end so well because he could throw it quick like a screen Or he could throw it uh underneath right there Which i'm gonna call it wait for him to come up field like he did on that fourth and five There goes hits hits uh josh gore and there that was a close pass Um, he had him early and maybe once they stopped on the sideline Maybe a lot of times I like the high ball it just so they don't You know come back to the ball and you throw it right to the corner If you high ball it they'll go up and get it and there won't be an opportunity for that corner to pick it off But he's got a decent little drive going on right now great block shed there by I don't know who did 52. I hope it's 92. Maybe reggie white. I don't know who that was Really shredded his right tackle stopped that from being a big play as you see his players are tired now All yellow man, that's the downside of having a long drive Your players will get tired and like they're right there You saw him take a lot of time at the huddle And that's something that you know, you have to do especially when you're a long driving salary cap You have to take time in the huddle scroll through your plays and give your Your players an opportunity to catch your breath This is also a play that he ran a lot motion over this corner route make it a post Throwing the knee fair to steve smith nice little catching traffic in front of jamal adams Give him the opportunity to make some plays get it to a third and four right here Makes it a lot more manageable for him to go ahead and uh convert this Stay alive holding uh strafing the three points on his first drive was huge if he can get seven right here, that'd be big So he pretty much jay wolf man's offense is pretty much between the trio Pretty much just that one play with the corner route And bunch tight end man, obviously I play books a lot. He runs bunch tight end So I know most of route combinations and that was just a beautiful laser right there That corner routes going to get over the cloud and cover two I talked about ryan being in cover three guy that play he was in some type of cover two It will make the right read Throw it at the right time and fit that corner route and huge start to the game by jay wolf man man Holding them to three going down the field getting seven is huge It's definitely uh a big um big momentum for jay wolf man and definitely uh feeling good He gets the ball to half just pretty much got a uh slow down his cross from out from trips tight end And he'll be looking pretty good And you see ryan definitely has four net four net if you're not having ricky you gotta have four net Especially at this time of the year We remember I mean we all have a fun playing salary cap now, but this was before it was a doubt See that these adjustments look manning up pretty much everybody Like I said inside zone even though that guy got ran over You got to feel good about your run defense there because you did grab them before you even got to the line of scrimmage Ron parker definitely got trucked, but As long as you're getting bodies on and putting hands on them. I mean the run shouldn't hurt you that much Also, like if you If you are um ryan you got to see that too and here's michael victor's running away throwing the ball away That's people talk about it's not even his scrambling It's plays like that where he can snap and run away and throw the ball away But I said if you're ryan and you see him blowing up inside zone like that You're hesitant to call it even though four net got 12 yards on that you saw how easily he blew that up Once again manned up Throw it before you get the man got there and actually hitting randy moss There's the guy in the Prince jersey there. We're talking about on broadcast. There he is Prince yes Good job. I'm this was important to show us on the stream, but we're back here. We got a third and seven Third and seven kind of get off the field here a little hitch underneath Go play there by ryan mixing it up man. He didn't have a manned up that play Like I said, I wouldn't man up be either but because he blissed all the corners on that side He blissed the whole half of the field He had to guard the tight end on the fade and allowed he wasn't able to lurk that little hitch So one of the differences between jay wolf man and strafing the strafing is in a very conventional offense for matten 19 I mean this is something jay wolf man has seen a lot It's definitely something that uh He has played against before and we've seen my man riko and my man larry who always do a great job of commentating Always are a pleasure to listen to all the time But we missed that play. I don't know what happened, but it seemed like an overdose of tyre kill and uh We're looking at my guys again, man But like I said, I really appreciate everything they do for man, especially larry and uh riko. They do a lot for our game He was going always able to hit the corner out here That time I wish he would have got a better click on right there If he clicks on the melvin and they actually held on to that pass So I felt like if he clicked on the melvin, he could have jumped off and picked that off I don't know where his click on was or who maybe to click them under the deep blue That looked like it could have been a pick I mean throwing to a short receiver like that like you do to uh tyre kill The trajectory of the ball is lower so taller dbs can jump and pick it off Here we see pruit his 10 cap tight end didn't want to get off the line of scrimmage on that play I mean you got to invest in a tight end if you want him to get off the line Right there, pruit did not get off the line. He threw it underneath Ryan with a decent drive right now, man. He's got a second and three Like I said, we saw how jay wolfman can blow up inside zone We were surprised if Ryan can go ahead and try to pop it inside zone and he does right here That's man, zack sealer number 95, man If you guys are playing sider cap and you want a fat lineman that's got decent speed and strength Zack sealer is 14 cap You see him holding down the middle for jay wolfman right there We get to a third and two right here for strafing Uh wolfman has been blitzing a lot and this is a good call by him. He doesn't blitz at all And ryan just has a pretty Pretty nasty play to put out there. He just put a running back flat in a drag And uh wolfman didn't blitz that play just played cover three shader and nief and ryan had nowhere to build a ball So great defensive call questionable offensive call I mean, I guess it would have worked if he went back to blitz and a bunch of people but because he dropped back in coverage That call was uh Now nowhere from ryan to go with the ball. So he held him to another field man It's a frustrating part of man But something that looking back on this game and shout out to counter man get your money brother That's what I'm talking about put all these ads in these games as much as you can But going back to that kicking your field goals is important man During the first half of the game you want to accumulate as many points as possible Even though it's frustrating kicking two field goals and having him have seven This six keeps you alive man. If you don't get points there, man, it's a really devastating thing And that's one thing that allowed ryan to really uh come up with this victor is always kicking field goals staying alive Um, let's see ryan in three three five normal And ricky, I mean you got we got to put a juke out there or something with man We got okay. It's a juke try the truck. We got ricky wong's man make him work That's one thing we talked about noonan in the eagles club series where he would just run right into people With ricky wong's do you got to make I know you paid a lot of cat for your running back man use him for that cat pretty much what i'm saying Let's see what we get So we got two runs and we got a first down now. This is where you have to start taking your time at the huddle Ricky got the ball twice man. You don't want ricky to come out the game You don't want ricky to be tired take your time in the huddle especially getting ball of half This can be the last drive of the half After two runs getting the first down wolf man is going to cook up a pretty pretty peculiar play here Let me show you this play Once he motions in So he's going to have this out route he ran this play earlier in the half He has this out route And this corner out this is going to be as high low now in the first half ryan gave up This corner out first play of the game over here on the right side So from there if i'm right i'm not really giving you a hard flat look over here because you've shown me you have this corner route to hit boom So what ryan is going to do here He's going to blitz and the only other hot route this or hot when I say hot route I mean something he can throw fast that there's a blitz is this running back hitch So ryan does here actually blitz is the corner, which is something he's done in madden Forever he pretty much just calls it random play on defense or whatever But one that he always calls it not a lot of people call it anymore, especially against spread Is the corner blitz and he calls it this play and it works really well for him because This outside linebacker in the corner will definitely distract these two linemen allowing us the end to come free And Because all these routes are kind of like to start off right in this area He can lurk them all so wolf man has really nowhere to throw the ball And I'll show you guys what happens on the biggest play of the game one of them Let's see these two guys distract this guy. He walks right in Boom, he's lurking this area where all these routes develop mcnab gets hit and V divide a v divide you watch any of my videos I felt like this guy was the best he tackle in the beginning first month of the season comes up with a huge interception Boom Big pick for ryan because he's kicked two field goals. Now. He's automatically right back in field goal range dwindling down the first half of the game It's definitely a big play for him To be able to get momentum like that We'll see inside zone popping Leonard for net even though he ran somebody over he got ban animation you can tackle him That's what I mean about if you run defensive you can just get hands on him And he won't always get that smooth animation. Sometimes you'll hold him up. Sometimes he'll spin around like that and you can grab him and Really, uh slow down and run He's in ryan. There's a random dude. He went from trips tight end now. He's in bunch Wolf man's even more random on defense man enough rb here Uh Man enough x now he's got everybody manned up Running back streak everybody is manned up everybody's box great defense Those the ball away And what kills him really is that now the two-minute warning still going to work Still going to be a big play still going to stop the clock here. So ryan Clock wise didn't run the clock as well as possible But this is a huge play man if you're a wolf man, you really got to find You really got to start feeling like man, I'm gonna get off the field here This is I'm gonna get the ball back even though I just threw that pick. I'm gonna hold him do another field goal He goes with rush five And michael vic does what michael vic does First down two minute warning clock stops Tons of time left the time isn't affected right now really for either people if you're wolf man You're probably gonna get the ball back unless ryan plays this perfectly I would start thinking about using my timeouts on defense right away Because I want the ball back ryan would have to get another first down run a bunch of times and and really uh Use the clock perfectly for me to not to get a first down All right, I'm for me not to get the ball back So you see he's in new england So he has this little toss right here and for net just fighting and for ryan That's perfect because he gets him to a second and one or second and two So it looks like he's probably going to get that first down. He's able to take he should take all 30 seconds off the clock here And like I said, if I'm on defense, I'm starting to think about using my timeouts. I'm definitely gonna uh Find a way to um get the ball back in the second half and if I'm ryan, this is an automatic run no matter what And j wolf man thinks that too because he's in an outrageous defense That uh, definitely is is run stopping defense ryan takes all the time out the clock Big hit right there J wolf man uses his timeouts. That's exactly what I would do If I was on defense Third and suiters is a huge play far as I'm concerned if he's in a run set I want to sell out on the run probably if he's in any type of pass that No matter what I need to spy on the quarterback In this formation, I'm probably thinking level sale, but he quick snaps the inside zone for net trucks decent play I would use my timeout again on now. You have to once you use one timeout. You got to be committed to using the timeouts J wolf man needs the ball back uh before half definitely most importantly. He needs him hold him to um Hold him to three which he's done twice already This said manning up the safeties that always helps with the run So your for net almost fought number 20. I don't know if that's reed or barba or somebody just held him back Now if you're ryan second and goal on the one yard line, man, this is where I'm just full steam ahead. I have Leonard for net. He's already ran over six people on his drive I'm not doing anything But Leonard for net right up the gut because most importantly even if I can't fulfill the game the half is all the way over And you see j wolf man. He had no choice But I love that he went off size there. I showed us on podcast before man Just go off size. It doesn't matter that much that close to the end zone And he didn't have any timeouts anyway, but I see so many people waste their timeouts in a situation like that So he comes out and goal line defense man And if you're ryan man, he came he called timeout to come out on his defense You have to think Why he has to have some type of defense and you go for the toss and his box now. I want to talk about this man Because nothing grinds my gears as they say and I talk about this skimbo somebody. I tell this all the time I hate that call You have two downs to get this much yardage Two downs you have Leonard for that you pay him 60 cap whatever maybe put him on aggressive Go full steam ahead whether it's full back dive ISO power row whatever it may be the further you move the ball behind the line of scrimmage the more likely that is to happen Now you're kicking a field. Well now you're out of luck five yards. You have one play and and All you can run is hope Leonard for that gets in But if you go ahead and run forward boom run somebody over you might get in you might not We might get that much closer But it also gives you opportunity instead of a third and goal from the five We have third and goal from the inch line again and if you run forward again Boom, you don't get in but damn. Maybe we have fourth and goal from the inch line Maybe we have three shots again this much with Leonard for net I hate going for the toss on second down I will always hate a toss call on something that's not fourth down Or third down if you're guaranteed to kick the field. Well, man, I think that toss call really killed him He's could have scored a could have scored seven here and went up 13 to seven Just keep a full steam ahead, especially if you have Leonard for net all that cap all that money in the running back Got to use him to the best of his ability, man. I hate a toss call on second down every time I said I'm playing toss a thousand percent here. I don't think he has a little cute dot And great play right here by barber again, man And at well, he ran out of bounds really trucked there But but barber got off the block and was the one that really I wish I showed you this play again Man was really the one that made this play Barber got off this block. This is dion sanders And uh down here in the goal line the one thing I do I don't like dion now the cap is different So I'm dion's probably my slot corner. He's definitely not my safety down here in the goal line But barber makes this play And uh, what happens is wolf man actually clicks on strafe takes away to spin Because I mean I'm bad, you know, I'm a bad player. So what I do if I see you beat that block I'm gonna probably spin right away Soon as he beats his block. I'm looking I got to beat this guy and wolf man actually clicks on Pulls him back for a spin even though maybe with these two guys pursuing the spin when it worked So he can't spin them tries to truck him and steps out of bounds, man Not only does that not get in the end zone But it does lead time on a clock not that j wolf man has a lot of time to work He has no timeouts not that much time, but definitely he's time still on the clock But now we're at the one yard line here, man But ryan has already kicked two field goals because of that a third field goals want to give him the lead So good job at managing the clock. I hated the toss calling second down But he wanted him getting three anyway. He has the lead on three field goals, man I talk about seven and three's all the time. But I mean this sucks taking three But if you if you stay to it, you're gonna be in a tight game You know, this is j wolf man. It's the biggest game he's ever played Naturally, he's going to be nervous. So just stay in the game Try to make a couple plays and really just there you go. The on-sander's almost got busy right there So now you got a big kick return That changes the whole outlook of the drive. I mean you go from You go from no chance to get points now you're at the 42 instead of the 32 or the 25 Time to make a couple plays right here. And this is when my man j wolf man got really wild We're going to go out here and go with the double. Uh, I can't see it Go out here and go with the double post routes the double post So in other words when this breaks down, he has no one to throw the ball to until these two guys get 25 yards down the field So he wants these six guys to hold up for these wide receivers to get 25 yards down the field and one or the other Because it's pretty these guys are pretty much running people off and ryan's going to have a lurk here So you pretty much put these two routes out here and try to shoot try to wait for him to choose Which one he's on cover and you throw to the other one. There's no drag Obviously, it's tough to throw the ball in bounds in this situation because there's no time really And he has no time out. So you had to get out of bounds I would have loved to see he's been high lowing him to death all day I would love to see just a flat and a corner out with a streak Take the flat get eight yards got a bounce get eight yards get out of bounds Give yourself a chance to get around the 50 yard line and one more dot for a field goal Because this play right here. I mean you need all day for this play to work ryan sends five people he comes free just shucks something And so now that's just wasted four seconds off his clock Now he still has plenty of time see something like this would even be better if you hit this little out route or this corner route or something where you got to get out bounds Obviously in a drag isn't the worst thing now we go with two corner routes Let's see if he makes a read over here on the left Has a little baby out route. He took that out route. Oh didn't catch it right there great play over there by Darius Slade one of the best cars in cap especially early in the year made a play there Now you're down to 15 seconds Third down Kind of thinking man I gotta take some time off the clock here so he doesn't get the ball back. I'm definitely gonna punt if I don't get this And he might go again with the uh, the double post or does he go double corner routes? Double corner routes. I like it What's he gonna play? He has nothing to do short like if he gets any pressure on him There's nothing for him to throw short Oh, maybe he's gonna go with double post now. Yep. He went back to double post. I like it I mean He did pressure. He's got sometimes Ricky Williams just didn't block a soul there for him Guy I'm the nine seconds. He's gonna go ahead and punt this ball off And Ryan runs the ball. That's the end of the half man. They show this guy walking pretty cool This is the best stadium in the world. This is where the Eagles won their Super Bowl So it's three field goals to one touchdown man. Ryan's had three drives Wolfman's really had two he had the one touchdown drive and that little pick by vita veya That's pretty much been a whole game. I mean I really think j wolfman's playing good Ryan made a couple plays and he's playing real conservative. He's taking his threes. He's staying alive in the game When I say staying alive, he's actually winning now, but he's not Forcing anything, you know, he's not reach. He's not chasing points He's he's not happy taking threes, but he's taking them because they accumulate and we'll see how that plays out as the game goes on Second half of the game. Like I said, j wolfman gets the ball But he is down nine to seven Like I said, his offense was out of the trio or it was this bunch tight end Here we go. Once again with this running back wheel route Nice dot over here. Did he catch it? Yeah, I got his feet in there. Nice dot I don't know if there was a hard flat. He didn't have another flat route over there to pull that flat down It was pretty much just that corner out in a hitch Didn't love that because if that was a cloud flat, he had nowhere to throw the ball to But it was a hard flat he was able to fit that in Get a ball to Ricky. His center went crazy right there rolled on the ground Didn't block anybody only got one yard, but you see how fast he's calling his plays Chat he's not scrolling through. He's not taking his time at the line of scrimmage It might sound like an insignificant thing But in salary cap, you don't have backups So you have to make sure you give these guys health give them power I know we're playing yugioh, but you need to rest them in the huddle give them their powers back Give them their gem of 42 their gem of strength Give them some time once again. We see this running back wheel route with the tight end He does a good job slowing down letting Kittle get a block trucking down sanders great play right there, man Really slowing down a lot. He's running that play a lot. I tell you that running back wheel with the flat It's kind of like a makeshift screen on the backside of most of his plays So you go now he's scrolling through his plays, but ricky's extra tired now He realized once ricky's tired. He starts scrolling through his plays Now sometimes you've got to remember. I know it's hard and I don't do it all the time Always scroll through your plays even if they're blue even if they're light blue Don't wait into the red or the yellow to scroll through your plays There he goes get a ball to ricky again Tackled right away about 28 milton who is the salary cap god this year He called to play right away again Once you get caught up in a moment of a game man, we all play the game You get caught up You don't think about little things like that and this is one of the biggest plays of the game that I talked to him about That I thought he should have a touchdown And I asked him why does he use this josh gordon card? that was it because This this this can't be to spin for our cap Of the door sets and the riddlies You got to have a door set or a ridley right here And I said you get this right here A good spin this is a touchdown a good spin This is touchdown a thousand percent of the time with door set or ridley This is touchdown all over we all play the game. This is a spin move waiting to happen Gordon does not have spin josh gordon was his choice And here we go His running back is tired. He's he's trying to bring him back to life. He brought him back to yellow Honestly on first down might be my down to sub out ricky because and I talked about this as soon as the game was over Man, and I talked about strafing with for net man. You play this much cap to a running back This is where you lean on your running back. He's going to go ahead and run with yellow ricky Runs with him here Spin move. Ah, he gets to the foot gets two yards. So after a spin Now ricky. He's ricky's got a sub out So ricky has to sub out. He's trying to bring him back. Look, but ricky ricky want to take the playoff with man. He's tired So he's got urvin Now if we place our cap urvin is 85 speed 10 cap everybody should have him somewhere on your team Because you need a 10 cap anyway, the lowest cap possible with the fastest speed Never want to give him the ball Never want to uh What should we call it never even want him on the field But because this play this drive is getting close on 10 plays for the drive Didn't pay attention to ricky's stamina until he was already tired Uh, and this is where you want to lean on ricky Uh, and it's almost to the point where like I said first down I might have gave ricky to breathe there Might have took him out subbed into urvin But he has urvin here on second down second and going to four Talked about it was strafing man full steam ahead is normally to call But wolfman because he doesn't have ricky and he's sad. He's listen tell you I want ricky right now. Like this is this is why you pay him the 60 cap or whatever you're paying, but I want ricky right now But because he doesn't have ricky he decides, you know, I'm gonna sneak a little bit I'm gonna run my my j wolf man Inside the four dot. We all have a dot. I have the w inside the four There's the skimbo inside the four there's everybody has a little inside the four My mind's where they probably all suck, but we all have a little inside the four dot Now j wolfman says, you know, I'm gonna run the j wolf man inside the four because ricky's tired Now I'll tell you this if I don't want to run the ball with urvin I damn sure don't trust him running the angle right over in the middle of the field, right? He's not going to catch this shit inside the five with 17 purple or uh vikings jerseys right here He's not going to catch the ball So I understand passing but I wouldn't have never put urvin on a route So it does he decide I'm gonna go ahead and pass and he doesn't want to run with urvin I don't blame him has kiddo on a corner route high ball. He's smart routes. That's pretty nice And he throws a little thing bang and he's going to take off right here Now I will tell you I I said it from beginning of the year I lost the s delo in the eagles club series last year probably about a year ago Maybe more maybe 14 months ago And he killed me with michael vic And you know what I said to myself If there's a michael vic out he will be my quarterback No matter what I don't care about thresholds. I don't care about left-handed quarterback. I don't care about anything I care that michael vic is a freak He's the best player in man history. He's the best player on the man field michael vic I I don't want to say this is touchdown, but it's damn start closer than Donovan McNair would have touched down Because he's got a user here. I don't know if he sends this guy or he sends one of these guys He's probably sending because if I'm on defense, I'm jamming the right stick in No, he doesn't really it's just his it's just his user comes down And strips him with jamal Adams and gets the fumble So compound to him not having I obviously not wanting to run because ricky was tired Not utilizing the stamina the stamina coming into play and taking ricky out the game Boom and then he wants to pass then he doesn't have vic He has mcnapp. Well, obviously mcnapp is probably my favorite player ever But he's never gonna be my quarterback in man as long as michael vic is available michael vic that might be a touchdown But instead it's a fumble Bunch of things very unfortunate play We see the quarterback run a lot not not all the time is it a fumble but he definitely fumbles right there Boom so nine to seven drives down the field great job executed. Well gets inside the 10 Stamina killed him and Got stripped with a quarterback happens to all this happens to me probably more than anybody in the world But now he's got play defense could have had to lead without that fumble even it was 10 to seven Now we got to stop inside zone. We had a ball in a two-yard line That's the only good thing he goes a little man coverage throws it underneath tire re-kill Straight from had a lot of these snap throws where there's an route to hitch whatever maybe he had a lot of that all year As you see straight from uh, what's my call it just went on aggressive. I believe it was aggressive tackle aggressive pass rush one or the other but uh There we go. Oh Ron Parker again. I'm telling you guys get a Ron Parker on your team shut it off the block Wrapped or looped around made a tackle on four net So if you're strafing man, you're thinking to yourself If I go get seven man, this game is over. Especially if I take a little bit of time off the clock Oh a little playmate Ryan's always been a playmaker guy that has always been his thing Just have a little playmaker and if you're wolf man, you're pissed because you've been manning people up all day As soon as you don't man somebody up, he goes and hits you with the playmaker and the next play you man them up smart Now we're using the corner. I like it and we're going to call it on a detackle We're going to give up the crossing route probably this play boom make a tackle you have to spin move Good tackle there by rod woodson So if you're riding you're back in field of range, which you've already kicked three field goals So you're back in field of range Can't risk it by doing anything dumb Definitely going to see a heavy dose of mr. Fornette. I mean deon sanders man. He he just is pretty much a walking truck stick But I said it earlier Just because you got truck doesn't mean that you know That's bad run defense man because he got truck slowed him down somebody else was able to shed and get to him Great defense here man up everybody the right way Know what to do and ryan throws the ball out and he hits him after the throw That's what you got to do you got to let the quarterback know it's going to be a long day Now that's why I said the way they call roughing the passer penalties now in nfl man If you want to get a rough in the pass and penalty make it count You know, he made it count right there. He put michael vick into the dirt Have you got 37 ryan run is in a weird form in his u trips that he hasn't run all day So if your wolf man, you're pretty much demand up everybody You have the tight end the tight ends on a streak. You're doing good. Everybody's boxed Great defense. Don't send your spot to early something at the right time ryan has to throw the ball away So good job man ryan came out in that new new formation the first time a whole game And wolf man really had the bag for it held him to another three So this is four field goals man ryan's had four drives kicked four field goals Wolfman has had three drives easy seven A tipped up pick inside the pocket and that fumble the goal line with the with the quarterback I mean if you kick threes and turn your opponent over man, you're definitely gonna be in good spot And now ryan is up a whole five points So wolf man needs to score a touchdown. This is the drive of his life. This is the drive of his mcs year This is definitely uh This is going to show you what what man players are made of pretty much to drive right here after all that bad stuff happened So you still have a chance to go win the game This is his favorite play probably out of this trio. Obviously it is He's got a high low on the right now. He magically goes Let me show you he magically goes From that high low he had on the right. He has this high low on the right And he moves look at his safeties So he wants to go Uh out route which this guy really is an option But a lot of times you'll see him motion him in make him more of an option But he he's got this high low over here on the right with the running back angle route Just for something to throw back over the middle if his user comes in lurks all the way over here But what he sees is he moves his safety so far and he's got tiger kill on his fade And halfway through this he says, you know what I'm gonna go for I'm gonna go for This guy Deion Sanders has to cover tiger kill on the fade Now we use a fade rather than a streak because the streak will run right along these these numbers and It's not really the down here to your guard It's just the the separation he gets from the middle of the field that makes the fade better It fades away from the middle of the field and that's going to make deion not have to just cover here But actually cover to the sideline And he decides I'm going to go for his first down. I'm not mad at It looks like honestly, they're they're they're even right now and then if they're you're even you're leaving That's pretty much how it's been a man, especially with a pass lead to the right because they are even right here But they're definitely not even to the sideline. So he definitely has You know five yards five six yards here And he in there even here. So a pass over here will definitely get it in And he goes for he lobs it And he goes out of bounds. I don't even think he ever had a man, but if you're I I I probably Would have held the ball a little bit longer I mean, you definitely got the pass protection. Maybe held the ball longer and one of the other problems is his two underneath routes here are definitely still uh Still guarded still lurked, you know, he can lurk both of these routes I probably would have still kept this guy on the corner route. Maybe he knows something I don't but I'm pretty sure you can still throw this deep route even if he was still on the corner route That way you have somewhere else to throw the ball over here Because now you're this lurk is going to go in both these guys, but anyway, he tries to burn dion Didn't work. I like it. Sometimes you got to just throw it up there. Let him know that you know, I'm here I mean business, you know, this isn't just You know, I'm not here for for for fun and games, you know, you gotta let him know you'll throw it up there So maybe next time he won't have dion in here You know, but then again, there he is right there dion right there eight yards off the ball This another play I hate Another play I hate but it throws the ball. I'll tell you why I hate this play Hitch you're not you're not throwing this as cute as it is And I was I don't remember what mad it was but the low ball hitch like the snap low ball the smoke screen Was like 10 yards of pop and I hated that But now they're pointing you can't even throw them even if there's a deep blue As long as it gets you five or six yards because the way they catch it is just obnoxious and you can't get a lot of yards We know the fade isn't open. So now you motion over this corner out Which probably could have been open both times but you motion him over he's going to go right across the middle of the field Now you're just going to try to play with As far as I'm concerned when I'm playing offense, I don't want to throw anywhere near your user I don't want to have to make a read and Like I don't want to have to react to your user at all I want to make your user go somewhere else and throw to the other side of the field You know why because the computer is predictable I can predict what the I know what the computer is going to do. I know what a cloud fast want to do I know what a deep blue is going to do. I knew what a heart flask want to do. I already know that I don't know what the user is going to do and this play that he draws up a second and 10 The drive of his life is pretty much. I'm going to see what his user guards over this guy or my running bag Because these two guys aren't an option. They're not So he has this play. He's going to just throw this post route or he's going to throw this running bag angle route In other words, he's going to throw right at Ryan's user and try to decide where he's going to go Luckily for Wolfman. He goes ahead and gets shetted right here or screamed that actually and goes the ball away But I just didn't like that play. I didn't mind the first one going for the whole thing The second one. I didn't like that play You know, so now he's in a bunch tight end. This is I don't want to say this is better passing formation But it's a it's a better passing formation, honestly So now he's got to cook up another dot Here on third down Or yep third and 10 You see Ryan come on doll or something I mean Ryan's just all over the place on defense. It's hard to play against this is his main dot and probably his main play That he likes to run right. Uh, I missed it But he's able to hit ricky huge tackle right there. I don't know who 22 is Mel maybe he's melvin too But he just made a huge. Yeah, it is melvin. He made a huge tackle right there I'll tell you I had to talk about that running back. Well, right there. You see Minneapolis It's where the Eagles won the Super Bowl in that building, but Melvin made a huge tackle for ricky. Williams If you're a wolf man, once again, you're mad at ricky. I want to know this too Let me see before this play. I want to see something that's probably going to piss me off, but Third and 10 No, ricky's not tired. There's other why was he was tired has been running down the field Now third like I said third and 10 you want ricky to fight right there, but melvin brought him down Took it to the fourth quarter. Melvin brought him down. He's got a fourth and short fourth and very manageable To me, it's pretty much Fourth and three is any flat route any zig route any drag on cloud flats. We'll get this first down So this is very manageable And you guys see what I said, he's really been using ricky well with their wheel route And here he goes with the play kind of a play that books would run out of bunch tight end Where he has a flat route the hill to take all these zones to the left kittle on a slant post to see smith Now he motions out this fade. Normally this fade is just to run off the zone So you can see smith on his post route and you'll see what he does there. He puts them on the out route Because he's not basing lines. So these guys are real close to the to the bunch They're real close to the inside So he's thinking I can hit this little quick out route over here Which isn't bad. It's a lot. I'll tell you this. It's a lot of pressure on Making this read and hoping these guys don't shoot out here because once you do this This is what you're kind of locked in on your eyes wise, especially if he blitzes And this is an open you have to go take your eyes all the way back from the right side all the way back to the left Which is a lot of stress on you. So you hope this guy is open when you do this He backed them up and he's able to hit this out route bomb underneath there 53. I don't know who that is. I don't want to say as Nigel Bradham 10 cap, but it might be Doesn't get out there in a flat zone So good that way to cook one up man. I was definitely a freestyle that worked out for him And he's going to stay in bunch today and I think for this drive Most of it Man, I feel like he had a lot But he's actually over here to hit the corner I'll stay on the sideline for him. Josh Gordon. I'll talk about Josh Gordon again. I don't know what his speed is But man, oh man, oh man, that was a huge play for him to stay in bounds, but I wanted I wanted I need a touchdown on this one Now me person on this play if I throw it here, I'm definitely holding y to come back to the ball He held x and got a great animation Dion called him and we got a stiff armor or fight through that tackle man I promise you Philip Dorsett would have fought through that tackle But he learned his lesson once man with Ricky Williams being tired Now this is probably the most peculiar For a man that I enjoyed watching freestyle these next three plays are like like what I don't understand what what's going on and I'll show you these plays that he did He gets real cute down here And I think this guy right here if we we watched Madden this year is halfway through the man year mad 19 man And these running backs on aggressive are dogs Whether before net and ricky Williams Have been absolute animals so far man And Eddie George is probably one we're going to see a lot in the club series coming up here But I at this point the time and the score and first down This guy right here got to be more involved and I'll show you the plays that he goes for here One he's back to his money play Corner route fade hitch high low right here Backside angle route Kittle is never an option on this thing. He's better off blocking him every time But he's going to get real freaky. He's going to just Just like he's going all over the place Now we're going to drag slant everybody just a bumble Fuck here in the middle just everybody. He's going to be able to guard everybody I hate when people have a bunch of routes going right to the middle of the field because it's really hard to read It's hard to make a read He can guard anybody. I don't know if that's exactly what he he ends up on Oh, he motions the motor so we have a drag corner. This is pretty standard man With the fade to Tyree kill Motion over this call. He kept the he kept the slant on this side Went for the fade here man, and that's I mean, I don't know what dion was doing there, but if I'm j wolf, man, I want this touchdown I want that my Tyree kill got to come up with that after all that all these slants in middle of the field It might it might have been a cover three bomb Just put everybody on the slant and the deep blues like just suck down or something pause But it worked Tyree kill did not get his feet in there, man But this is the play This is some real skimbo-esque stuff right here. I'll be honest with you So he thinks oh, I mean he's just he's just out of his mind or he doesn't know like he's just freestyling right now two hitches Streak so he knows this guy's cover two at least it was last play So this josh going could really be an option here He really I thought he put another streak out here That was really to play he really went A streak a fade a hitch and hitch Now I will tell you right now fellas in chat. These two guys aren't getting the football They're not This flat zone will probably cover both of them What ryan does here is cover two. I promise if he put smith on a fade Gordon would be more open than he is But he's going to put his safety here in a third to go cover the middle of the field Dion's covering this whole this is this is a wild play right here. This is This is something special So pretty much your only option on this really is kiddle or gordon because if this is if this is a third Which it is kiddle can go to the left here and gordon if it's covered to can catch it right down the middle And what happens here after he snaps the ball Like I said, he's a third kiddle could be an option, but he kind of covers them Gordon's really not an option. These two guys are absolutely his two hitches aren't getting busy for him And he goes at those are high to gordon Now he told me he liked gordon over randy moss me myself You know, I have a randy moss emote randy moss might come down with that one boys. I don't know But that play killed him third and 10 man Gotta cook a super dot up here If not a super dot get half so we go back to that manageable situation This is trips man his money play he's going to the same thing again Fade kiddle because he sees this guy in in a in a third. So you got a fade kiddle You have to now. I'ma tell you I watched this play four times already. I hate this play with a passion too He goes slant here in route here Once again, these two guys really are not these two streaks Could be options, but he's pretty much looking for the in route Or the slant both running right into a cloud a yellow and a user There's no high low action There's nothing else really involved michael vick. I mean michael wishes vick donovan nap does get busy Gets out her pocket makes it manageable Now the freestyle guy j wolf man got a freestyle again He got a fine one one slant one flat row one corner route something to get open right now fourth and three Back in bunch tight up I love it because the thing about much that it can attack the middle of the field very well very quick I don't think this is what he goes with but It's what he starts with This is what he goes with I think yeah So I have a philosophy if I get somebody to a fourth down man, you're getting every you're getting the kitchen sink If you're gonna dot me you want to make a read like that instantly Now this is three through five normal Most people is going to be some type of cover to cloud flat. You got your deep blue over here So pretty much when you come to the line here, you have all these guys on defense right here If he blitzes at you these guys aren't options to throw the ball to You know without without a flat route over on this side This corner routes never want to be an option for him to throw He's going to have to look in the middle of the field now if he blitzes He's only going to have a split second We saw the wheel route earlier be an option when he had the flat route out here Not only to you know, move the flat route out of the flat zones all the way to the sideline But also be a blocker if he has to snap and load as quick to ricky williams But right now he just has a drag to kiddle a slant to tirey kill That's what he's put all his money in right here Uh, because like I said, these guys aren't options because I just don't If this was a zig or this was a flat to take this flat zone out of the way And I don't know these guys just aren't options to me. It's all going to come down to kiddle or hill They're going like this and when you have two routes that go like this You're going to have two seconds of the play where you have to wait to see what his user guards pretty much This play is going to come down to am I going to go to drag the kiddle or to slant the hill All this other stuff is is is pretty much pointless Although he has thrown the wheel route to ricky williams But once he doesn't have that flat route to the kiddle, I feel like ricky williams isn't really an option for him So it's all coming down to I have to make a read I have to read where your user is going and I talked about that earlier in the game. I hate Making that the option on the play Because I don't want to flirt with the user. I don't want to get lurked. I don't want to get embarrassed I don't want to do a user pick And I have to sit here and wait a second to see which one he guards This is all this is like deliverance all over again his offense two slants Pick and choose go Know what happens on this play He's going to snap it ryan sends one two three four five six people flat flat I don't know if these are deep blues They are deep blues deep blues. He has the whole middle of the field So like I said one two three people are not options when come down to drag or slant you have to wait for this guy And you hold on and both of these guys are bumping into each other and ryan is covering both of these receivers by himself Causing the sack Boom balls hit up ryan has the ball Okay, so that's two trips inside inside the red zone that could have been field goals That turned out to be turnovers Also the tipped up pick in the air that vita vea caught So what man played good offense, man? He definitely moved the ball very well Especially against a good defensive player light ryan. He moved the ball very well and it was uh Unfortunate that he was not able to come up with point on points only on one of his four drives that he scored points He played better offense than just seven points, man It really was kind of unfortunate that he didn't score any points Wish he would have drew up a better play there on fourth and two Here we go with a There we go a big play right there to stop first down man That's where you win in these situations get him to a second and 14 He has to get the ball but he has all three timeouts. He'll definitely get the ball back if he plays this right If ryan if he can come up with a couple big stops Down here now. This is these next two plays are crucial plays Where people will say wolf man. I mean you're not going to necessarily Say anybody got really lucky and to the naked eye You won't say anybody got lucky, but these next two plays are unbelievably lucky and you won't really see it right there boom boom That hit stick from jamal adams on stefan digs We've seen wolf man manning up these routes all day But with this safety or this safety, whatever it may be Right now if you're wolf man, you're in a situation where you need to get the ball back and you need the clock to stop And for stefan digs to hold on to this pass right here Like look at this defense boom Not only does he gain Two three yards, which isn't a big deal The clock keeps running. So that's that counts for five yards and 30 seconds Like that's crazy. Yep. Exactly five yards and 30 seconds. That's what that catch that stefan digs Now people won't say all straight from god lucky, but that's an incredibly lucky play right there Now the next play Wolfman gets super crazy. I don't know he's doing even more wild stuff He throws the hitch and once again Tyree kill on melvin. Look at this Through a strip animation Strip animation with this other guy diving in his feet holds on to the ball Four seconds and 30. I don't know what is four yards and 30 seconds Now people kill j. Wolfman for calling that timeout, but I didn't mind the timeout at all right now You're pretty much your timeouts. It's 30 seconds. Whether it's before the two-minute warning after the two-minute me myself. I never call timeout before the two-minute warning rarely ever But I just want to the microcosm of those two catches One calls the timeout. They won't cost 30 seconds They combine the cost him nine yards if he drops those two passes. It's fourth and 13 or fourth and 14 Completely different situation than fourth and five Huge huge huge catches that are so underrated in terms of being lucky People talk about aggressive catches fumbles all that type of things being lucky But those two plays were huge in the luck category man. I don't mind the timeout. It's fourth down Let's see what Ryan has to do. This is the play of the game. It really is. We've seen how Wolfman's got huge hugely aggressive on defense man and people up all over the place Gotta spy michael vic. He's in this formation again Now, I honestly I didn't even pay attention to this earlier in the game when he ran this formation But what he did was he manned up this guy cross man cross man deep blue Nobody was on the tight end on in in the first half and he ran it tight in on a fade Which pretty much was easy because his deep blue covered it and everybody else was covered Well, I don't know if Ryan remembered this and I don't even know if it's that big a deal But he kind of goes to the similar defense. I want to show it again Cross man cross man. He's got a garb moss That's a pretty wild defense and this is why I love being able to see people's play art to see what they do But earlier in the game, like I said, he had proven on a streak And probably was covered easily because there were so many deep blues But what he does on this play for all the chaloups puts prove it on a drag Boom what and Compton needs his money Make sure you guys watch my man Compton videos. Jesus What the hell what did I and we're seeing Joel out of nowhere? What button did I hit? But anyway, he throws the drag underneath To my man pro it gets the first down clock continues the roll Crazy adjustment go into a random formation twice in the game When you play against your opponent in the formation or running you get comfortable to the routes they like To the route combinations they want to use especially when they need four or five yards For Ryan to pop in that random u-trips and go ahead and uh, uh, cook up a quick little dot Was definitely a big move a big huge play in the game And here we go. We get to a point in the game where uh Ryan just wants to use some time right there. He got called audible and use his timeout. That's fine You know this run right here is going to take me to the two-minute warning and never first down this game will be over And this is where uh, we talk about you got to know how to stop every run This is going to have wham. It's going to have toss. He goes with the wham Who number 57? I forget what this guy's name. He was a double named guy But he was he really played well for a wolf man Number 57 seems like a linebacker too when he got him a detack or somehow I don't know how who that guy is, but he definitely made some big plays with wolf man Once again get some to a second and 10 Trips tight end again First and foremost, I know it has all the routes and everything but you have to be playing inside zone Really, that's the most important thing you have to be playing I would get on he's blitzing everybody And that time joey bolster did not get the edge Give some hope right here that he gets the first down But that's pretty much clicked as we see jag in the background Shout out to jag. He's in the background. I'm saying That first down was huge So but he able to use his timeout He will get the ball back if he comes off the field here probably with a minute left once again We got to stop him inside zone There it is. Boom. Jesus 20 got chuck I believe that's justin reed So we get to a second and six Really gotta get off the ball here. This is another reason why trips tight end is so, you know So dangerous this year because not only does it have the great pass plays Also has the inside zone that bunch doesn't have and that other great formations don't have and you know So it definitely puts a lot of stress on your defense Right here, you got to sell out and now he actually comes out of their center Gets outside juke's a little bit breaks through lender for net wins the game for strafe and that to end the game That's pretty much it Run the clock out man. That was a huge game For my man, uh, strafe and then go ahead and get that victory it definitely was a hard-fought game and I said if wolf man takes some things back man, he really, uh Cost himself a lot of points inside the red zone And uh, what's we call it? And I just I was I was DMing the day I said do you regret anything he said Two big ones instead of doing that pass play with with Irving and running back just run the ball with Irving and just Put it on conservative or something get ricky back in the game And he said he would have kicked instead of going for that fourth and two I didn't mind going for that fourth and two that close Especially could have been the last drive of the game I mean like I said just we're wishing couple plays couple plays He got a little crazy with the freestyling man I feel like a man players to the day we die We're always going to have that one I feel like he never had one setup that he went to like this is my this is my go to Get you know, five yards or under play. This is my dot. This is my main play Now we talked so much about skimbo last week That you know, he really just had three setups he went to every time these are my three setups boom boom boom It's like robotic whereas j wolf man was the complete opposite man He just let he he flew by the seat of his pants and he just out here doing fades slants everything all over the field and I felt like if Like if You got to have that one play you're always comfortable going with man And that's really something if I tell joy with me man If you need five to ten yards if you need ten yards if you need three yards You have to have that one money play so to say like He kind of had the two money formations But I don't think he ever had that one money play that lockdown Money play that can really get him uh Get him really going with that man. And that's definitely something I wish you would uh Go ahead and uh incorporate to his game for the most part But I said he'll continue to get better at that And uh, it's definitely something he's going to work on going forward And I told him man, he's going to be really good at draft champions because anybody that can freestyle that good and play that well While freestyle that much is going to be good in draft champions man Go ahead get you a book with some type of trips or some type of you know Undercenter something in freestyle a couple corner routes and slants and he'll do really well with uh Draft champions man, but definitely you can't leave points on the board And that's the one thing ryan did not do he didn't leave any points on the board Man, if he was in field goal range, he took us three proudly Played defense came up with some huge turnovers a turnover on downs Fumble with the quarterback and the vita vita pick man. That was definitely a Three biggest plays in the game where those plays that fourth and two fumble with mcnab and that that vita via pick Definitely were the only times that jay wolf man really got stopped man. He played a great game He's definitely going to be back and the thing I like most about him He really has the desire to get better and that's if you put your desire and you put your energy into this game And anything you're doing life, man, you were really going to succeed And I wish him the best for draft champions and I also wish my man straight from the best in the club series you know, let's see if he can make a run secure that spot in ultimate league and Really put his mark on the club series this week And uh, that brings brings us to the nfl because we talked about the vikings so much, man The vikings, I know it's a lot of vikings fans. I know strafing is a vikings fan and I It really doesn't pain me at all to laugh at the vikings Because you guys know i'm a eagles fan, man And and what happened to him this weekend really was was funny. I mean they pay her cousins a lot of money I don't know what the stat is. I've seen it all over twitter Her cousins is four and 38 versus pull the first teams with winning records or something astronomical like that, man We needed as the eagles fans We needed the eagles to win and we needed the vikings to lose and the vikings lost, you know, they laid down And um, the eagles got a playoffs And let me tell you guys what the playoff I'll make my picks for the playoffs, man uh talk about What I think is going to happen obviously I'm an eagles fan, so you have to take everything I say about the eagles Kind of with a grain of salt, but we can definitely talk about all the teams that are in the playoffs I definitely think the saints really have the edge going as they have home field advantage You also have to go with the chiefs who have home field advantage On in the afc, man But I said the vikings laid down the eagles are actually really hot right now nick foals We got the reins back Definitely got the team playing really well getting ready to go into the playoffs And we can we can take a look here at the playoff bracket What we have up right now is the playoff bracket and what's it going to look like to win this super bowl 53 Obviously the eagles are super bowl, which we'll call it Super bowl champions the defending super bowl champions. They are Down here in the sixth seed we go into into soldier fields sunday at four o'clock And obviously I like the eagles I think the bears have a great defense I think the bear strength of their defense is their defense of line The eagles offensive line is formidable one of the best offensive lines in the game I will tell you this man of jason peters jason peters. I feel like he plays one half of every game He's been in and out. He's been hurt banged up quad injuries If big v has to play in this game, it might get dark for the eagles But if jason peters goes ahead and is the warrior that he always is Plays four quarters. I think the combination of jason peters lane johnson Jason kelly kelsey pro bowler brandon brooks. The eagles have probably one of the best offensive lines in the league Like I said, definitely Great combination of tackles man between lane johnson and jason peters So, I mean if they get manhandled, then I mean god bless the bears are different, you know, that's just that's just how it is Now I've heard that good colo mac is different colo mac The eagles held erin donald I don't think erin donald had a stat against the eagles JJ white they didn't he didn't do anything against lane johnson and them Clowney did go off But that's when big v came in again because jason peters left and that's where I'll tell you if jason peters has to Leave that left tackle spot and we had to bring in big v who played all last year in the super bowl That's definitely going to be a problem So that's definitely one of the biggest keys for me is if jason peters can play the whole game We'd love to establish some type of run against the bears I feel like the eagles don't run the ball very well It's something they did very well last year the biggest difference between the two teams between the eagles this year and last year Is them running the ball and and we'll see what goes on on the other side of the ball Ken mr. Biskey exposed the um the eagles secondary I mean I can't say enough about this kid of ontimatic since he's been back from his injury where he was out a couple weeks And put him at the left corner back spot Which is probably the more important left corner back spot of the two and he's been very good man And he's definitely been good ross old douglas at the other corner spot the eagles are down their top three corners They're down their free safety So they're definitely still hurting the secondary But we'll see I saw anthony miller for the bears got banged up last week Obviously they've alan robinson. I don't know he didn't play last week taylor gabriel left last week I mean, we'll see how healthy those guys are but they have a decent little y receiver core That can get eagles proud especially with how banged up the eagle secondary is But at the end of the day it's mr. Biskey So hopefully he has I mean for the eagles fans I mean he has a little hiccup and it's his first playoff game biggest game of his life We'll see how he performs man. He's really the cuter that team if you say anything is a weakness of the bears It's got to be the quarterback and not that he's a weakness. He's just young he's inexperienced He's very green And uh, hopefully for the eagles fans that's definitely gonna be their weakness for the day But defensively, it's pretty much can the eagle stop the run Which I think they're the eagle strength is stopping the run Michael Bennett Fletcher Cox brand and Graham them dogs are ready to fight with Nigel Bradham Jordan Hicks They do a very good job against the run. I mean Since the eagles have gotten Fletcher Cox, I feel like they haven't got they've had great run defense And uh, I really don't see the bears running the ball. I don't see the eagles running the ball So I think the ball's the hand is going to be in the quarterback's hands and the offensive line's hands, you know And I said the strength of the bears the d-line. That's the strength of the eagles too. So it's definitely going to be a hard Fall game. I think it's going to be somewhere we're in the in like 20 20 something like that not high scoring I'm going to give the edge to the eagles because they have the better quarterback more experienced team That's all and I'm an eagles fan. So you can take that for what it is. But then let's go to the other NFC match up Cowboys yawks I would tell you as a lifelong cowboy hater My hate is kind of dissing the little bit. I really I like to laugh at them, but I don't hate the cowboys anymore just because they haven't had that much success They haven't been that good And I don't really hate them that much anymore really but I still want them to lose but they definitely put a seahawks who I mean we talked about a seahawk dynasty being over man, but they're still a decent team They're really I guess they're young on defense now With the griffin brothers and they got frank clark up there on the d-line still have bobby wagon who's still I mean one of the best linebackers in the game So they still have anytime you have a linebacker that that's a middle linebacker that that that is that good Much like in carolina with keekley When you have a middle linebacker, that's good. That's the heart of your defense man Your defense is all gonna be formidable when your best player is a middle linebacker and he's that good And that's pretty much what seattle is with bobby wagoner They're definitely a different team in seattle and home and I don't want to say they're bad on the road But they're not they don't have that 12th man. So we'll see if they're able to go into dallas who I mean dallas I think what holds dallas back all the time is their quarterback obviously and their coaching is just mediocre Just the definition of mediocre That's when come down to man. They can stop zeke put the ball in uh Dak prescott's hand kim dak prescott makes a couple big plays down the field in the passing game To a marie cooper, maybe underneath the colby's lee or that michael gallup kid. That's really calm come on strong And the the flip side of this is is dak prescott is the worst player on the cowboys He's the biggest weakness where you look on the other side of ball russia wilson is the best player on seattle He is the biggest strength. That is the biggest difference in this game Both teams have solid defense. The cowboys are very good defense Both teams want to run the ball chris karson with seattle And uh, but one has a pro bow quarterback a super bow winning quarterback. The other one has dak prescott So we'll see if that can overcome the home field Dallas has not had a great home field event is they don't have a home field I mean, it's really nothing crazy like the 12th man or arrowhead or the dome in the new Orleans It's just dallas, you know, it's definitely a huge stadium where a lot of outsiders come in to see the team play It's more of a tourist attraction than a football stadium And it's it's probably hurt dallas more than helped them in the last however many years they've been playing there I don't know what the record is at homes, but it's probably one of the least home field advantage type cities in the country So it's pretty much the strength russia wilson the weakness dak prescott I gotta go with russell russell. I'm going there make a couple more plays Not even super nice throws just plays where he runs around finding somebody Gotta go with russell. Wilson winning that that will set up us for eagle saints seahawks rams nfc west Eagles going into the dome of the face new orleans Those are my picks for the first round eagles in the seahawks We'll talk about the next round later AFC these are some great matchups First one obviously the colts going to the texans afc South matchup. I believe the texans won both of these games. Maybe maybe now i'm not sure But the home field advantage Frank right got the colts playing really good. I believe there were one in five Early in the year much like the texans were oh and three both of these teams started really sluggish And it really picked up a lot of speed really started playing well led by both for their quarterbacks Andrew luck did they see him back from being hurt all the time? Really with that neck or back or shoulder everything was really torn up with andrew luck and it was It was at one point where it was like couldn't even do the football game But he's really playing well The shone watson deandre hopkins people argue that he is probably Maybe might have passed antonio brown certainly this year for best wide receiver in the league So that's definitely uh Definitely a big strength of the texans is deandre hopkins and the shone watson one of the biggest things is will fuller is out And uh, they just acquired the mares thomas, but he tore his achilles against the eagles two weeks ago So that's definitely they lost pretty much all the other weapons around deandre hopkins So he's pretty much by himself the tight end isn't really crazy And the running backs really aren't that dominant. I mean so it's pretty much on the hands of the shone watson and deandre hopkins Let's see what they can do They are playing at home and then we got to talk about clowny and jj white and that defense is just ferocious If and then you also want to go over here to see the colts defense man a couple of the young linebackers They got dairies lennard is a horse Definitely got some some good players a french ball sheared. I believe With the colts on the front seven. So it's definitely a good matchup any division matchup is already pretty tough, but I This is a tough one for me I mean it's pretty much what I look at in the playoffs man. I look at defenses and I look at quarterbacks You know and the shone was and I watched him play the eagles. He was very impressive And defensively I gave the edge to the texans and they're playing at home I got to go with the houston texans to go ahead and get this win against the colts the colts snuck in on the last day where they really dominated a The tennessee titans who unfortunately had to start what's the name? Uh The I don't even want to say his name because I don't even remember the quarterback to tennessee titans had to start and he actually beat uh They they actually blow out the titans because of that But I do like the texans to win this match up. So don't move on the next one is a game We saw three two or three weeks ago The ravens defensive team With lemar jackson who's really I think they said they're five and one since lemar jackson joined the fold Uh, really we gotta read option pop and lemar jackson I mean, he's not michael vike vicks speed, but he's like one notch below man. He's really electric when he gets the ball Throwing some pretty good passes too, man. So he's definitely Injected some life into the ravens offense definitely got the run game playing a lot better. They already went into Los angeles, I think we all call him san diego, but he went to los angeles about three weeks ago and came up with that win Eric weddle obviously twerell sucks to do his thing cj moseley those boys over there Marlon Humphrey jimmy smith tony jefferson really Probably between them and the bears is probably one of the better defenses in the league so far this year So and then the charge is philip rivers, man. He's always been A fighter pretty much how I'd describe philip rivers. I mean, I hopefully kenny allen will be a hundred percent Antonio gates is still getting it done And uh, this will probably one of the better games of the uh weekend. This will be saturday in the afternoon Chargers versus the ravens I think I'll with the defense team. Let's go with the ravens. Go ahead boom move them on I don't exactly know what seed these guys are, but I'll tell you what The patreons don't want to see either of these teams The patreons are the two seed. I know this is the five seed So this is the So the patreons would probably see the texans Yeah, this is a patreons will beat the texans But they won't beat either the patreons would lose the either of these teams They always struggle versus the ravens if we know that in the history of the raven The ravens always give the patreons a hard time and philip rivers goes in there and fights Either of these teams go to new england they win But it looks like unless the colts win the texans will go to new england and I think Uh, the texans Will lose to new england and then I said the ravens at kansas city wanted a better regular seasons games of the year or the charges at kansas city Would be another crazy game in the second round But like I said, I like the ravens like the texans in the a of c that's my predictions for the playoffs man It's gonna be a great time and that brings me to my uh, let's talk about week 17 And how it relates to mad and this isn't necessarily a In-game thing like mad with the clock management or anything like that is more so Week 17 came down to a lot of things a lot like I talked about the eagles needed to win And the vikings needed to lose for the eagles to get into the playoffs And so on and so forth and the ravens needed to win and the stillers needed to win And the stillers wanted to bounce to the win And I'll tell you kind of how some of this works more so Game by game type of thing like like the eagles if this were mad, right? And I was in a league And I needed to win a game. Boom. Okay. Let me look at this bring up this schedule here So you'll see all these games that went on But if this were it, you know say we're in my head league now listen We it's not that we cheat. It's just like listen, um If I say uh joke, you don't need to win this week. Let me get to win Or if you know Skimbo need to make the playoffs and I'm I'm out of the playoffs I have no desire to win in fact to this point in the nfl it is more It is smarter for a team like the giants or a team like the redskins or a team like The browns to go ahead and lose because it helps my draft stock, you know I'm not gaining anything by winning this game That's how I kind of isn't mad like if I'm in a league I'm out the playoffs But I had to play week 17. This guy'll come to me and say w, you know, let me throw you 100 or I'll give you 200 dollars You lay down give me the easy win Boom, that's pretty much what we would do in madden Even if it was ultimately, you know behind the closed scenes behind there You know if someone's out of the playoffs man, you don't want them to keep you don't want them to be the reason You don't make the playoffs So what I've all thought about this whole week is like does that happen? In the professional sports world man could because the eagles needed to beat the redskins and the redskins had absolutely nothing to play for Not that the redskins are any good They probably couldn't win the game anyway But there's jeffrey lord the owner of the eagles who said to make x amount of more millions of dollars if the eagles make the playoffs regardless of a home tickets regardless of uh What's him called regardless of Not having a home game. He's gonna sell so much more. He's gonna be on tv so much more The whole organization as a whole is going to just grow so much more from making the playoffs Does he go to daniel snider and say i'll give you the standard third? If you just tell your team to lay down Does that type of mentality that goes on in madden all the time? Whether it be group play whether it be league whether it be, you know, ultimate league Whatever it may be man if I don't need to win this game Others said man player will come to me offer me something for me not to even try And I always wondered to myself does that happen at a professional sports level man and and At what point does it Does it stop so if if jeffrey lord calls daniel snider, you know daniel snider man. These you guys adore the game I'll give you x i'll give you, you know 200 million whatever may be of those guys that have money. I have no idea I'll give you 200 million or i'll give you this many jobs or this many stocks or this many opportunities Whatever may be at that level It's not 200 like it would be at our level, but My point is okay, so he says that daniel snider. Who does daniel snider tell does he tell the head coach does he tell Why receivers coach does he tell the team captains does he he'll tell the whole team? At that point does he offer the whole team like you know, I'll give you guys another 75 thousand dollars I'll just go ahead and throw the game. I always wondered if that somehow plays Plays in real sports like it wouldn't man because that's what we were doing man Offer somebody money just to not try at all. Don't even give me the chance to lose in this game because I need to make the playoffs And you know it's definitely Definitely an opportunity where like when we talked about the vikings a lot today The vikings should have called up the bears and said listen let us get into playoffs man. I'll give you X amount of money Or whatever to lay down because the vikings went out there and lost So that's just something I think about all the time man, but we talked about club series And uh, it's definitely coming up time for every I think I don't remember five or six teams Already done. So all other 25 plus teams. It's time for you guys to get your team in Um, I talked to journey today. He told me they had to get their team in by the sixth or the seventh So I know you guys are making final touches on your team seeing what snow players you want to add what uh Personnel you want to have before las vegas comes in and you guys got another week I'm going to put another youtube video up pretty soon about what my team looks like now You guys have also been seeing me play a lot of salary cap. It's definitely fun since they raised the cap It's way different than what we looked at earlier And it's kind of weird how You know, we just watched strafe and win and he won on 850 cap Now all of a sudden the rest of the tournament is going to be on 1,400 cap or whatever 1175 It's a little bit. It's definitely a different game man When you have 60 cap db's out there instead of 30 cap db's It definitely is going to be a different game a different challenge for everybody And that is another challenge that we've been dealing with for the last couple years is how much the game changes Not only the game, but now the cap has drastically changed You know, and if you're ryan on of this hurts you or Would you rather if you're j wolf, man, would you rather have played on 14 or 1175 cap? Is it that big of a difference? I know a lot of you guys are getting your your Teams ready. Las Vegas is where the final like 25 or 27 teams need to play their final fours Good luck to anybody involved if you're involved and you're a new booty and you don't have I mean Obviously, there's a lot of you know regular names that are in that top four of each team But if you are somebody just just gotten into seeing excited about your time, please reach out to me I will help all you guys as much as possible Um, and like I said, we'll put a video about what my team looks like and I know you guys are all getting prepared I believe people are going to start flying out there at the end of january So it's definitely a fun time. That's going to be the the final 25 the final four of all those teams I probably next week I'll do a whole little list of everybody that's on the team and give you who I think So I want to win those uh those teams and what's it going to look like for the final 32 that big tournament Which is going to be held not in las vegas in california Originally everybody was going to go to california, but now they switched it I want to say in the last month or had they switched it to las vegas So another crazy last minute switch from ea to went from everything was going to be in this redwood california place And then asking like after the man classic They then switched it to the final four for all these teams will be in las vegas But then the final 32 will be in california So it was a little bit weird that they switched that up Or they didn't communicate that when i didn't know it was always going to be in las vegas and nobody really knows But the final 30 they're the final four for remaining teams will be in las vegas So like I said, if you guys need help if you need anything reach out to me I will help you guys as much as possible I said congratulations to strafe and all winning the minnesota vikings club series He has the bears the bears The packers and the bears pack and the lions So he's going to have to play bugs because boasts is going to win detroit And he's going to make a run So hopefully ryan gets a win and then has to play boasts. He doesn't have to play boasts right away Because boasts is going to make at least final four in the club series But uh And we'll see who's in viking or who's in the bears canes Canes and my man proof. I think my man larry proof made it But we'll see but canes is probably favorite to win that and then the packers would be I don't know if drag is still packers But between pack maybe drag canes and bugs and strafing that would definitely be a tough four for that division And we'll see what strafing can do with that man. And also Congratulations for wolf man for making that run Uh, keep trying to get better, you know, and you're going to do I I already see the way you pled you want to do very well in uh What you can call it very well in draft champions. So stay at it. I mean I said I really appreciate you guys checking out the show And um, please hit the like button.
