00:00
It's late October and Giants fans aren't looking ahead to the NFL draft like in recent years
00:05
because New York has finally found its QB1. It's only been a small sample size but Jackson Dart
00:11
has changed the conversation from the Giants need to draft a quarterback to the Giants need to draft
00:16
to build around their young quarterback. He ran for one and threw for three TDs in the loss to
00:21
the Broncos but you know what stood out to me the most? It's that kid's confidence. Here goes a
00:26
couple plays from the Denver game that showed that Jackson Dart has arrived in this week's Blue
00:32
Rush film breakdown. Jackson Dart definitely progressed as a playmaker and quarterback.
00:45
They did it in 12 packets. They went down out to Denver and they did some good things within the
00:52
offense this game in this loss. So let's watch this play. You see them 12 personnel. There's
00:58
Daniel Bellinger, Theo Johnson, Lil Jordan Humphrey, Wondell Robinson. We'll watch it. We did get into
01:06
this stack formation. Double tight ends.
01:11
Saw him. Buy time with his legs. Throw the football.
01:19
Down the field. Touchdown. Let's break this down. Let's look at this. Let's look at this a little
01:24
bit and let's kind of see what he saw. Watch the play develop.
01:33
Here. They're making this look like some sort of run play action but it's making it look like
01:37
it's some sort of stretch play that's in the Giants arsenal. That's in their playbook in terms of
01:44
running a stretch play to a double tight inside like this. You see what we call elephants on parade
01:49
when it comes to the linemen. Hats down making it look like this like the run steps and the
01:56
combinations it will look like if the Giants were running some sort of stretch play here with Tyrone
02:01
Tracy Jr. Daniel Bellinger's running up the seam. Dio Johnson now kind of replaces is like that
02:09
outside go route but they're running some sort of like seam concept here. Wondell Robinson has the
02:15
dig. Lil Jordan Humphrey slams and then goes into his flat release. He's like that check down
02:22
option. You see Jackson Dart great run action here
02:26
and the entire time he's scrambling his eyes are down the football field.
02:34
See the way he's able to step up in the pocket find like the holes the gaps
02:40
within the protection and the leakage to step up and buy himself time right when he's making his move
02:49
or he's stepping up in the pocket. Fungus seeing that and it looks like he's in some sort of duress and
02:55
now from 5, 10, about 20, 22 yards out he's having to start to honor the possibility
03:05
of Jackson Dart taking off and getting some sort of positive gain in this space right here. You see
03:12
Mufanga starting to sit down and kind of starting to drive and not carrying belly over the top.
03:20
There's also this in route run here as this kind of safety control just in case his eyes do get
03:27
nosy and that's exactly what happens. So now that Jackson Dart is able to step up in the pocket
03:32
keep his eyes down the field the entire time
03:36
he gets to now reset in a clean pocket and let it fly.
03:42
Daniel Bellinger right up the numbers. Safety in the middle of the field so he kept it up the hash.
03:51
Again let's watch it here from the tight.
03:54
That's why Jermaine Illuminor loves said he loves blocking for a guy or a quarterback that can move.
04:00
helps the O-line here. You see Broncos. One, two, three, four, five. Five up. Two backers.
04:11
And you've got the nickel wheel right there.
04:21
So they're only rushing four. They're only sending four to get after him. And again you saw the run.
04:26
You saw the run action. You saw how the offense line did a great job. The continuity. If I was to put on a stretch play
04:32
right now it would want to look like pretty much identical or married footwork
04:38
when it comes to trying to get these linebackers
04:41
and these DBs to step up.
04:45
I wouldn't even really say the pocket breaks down here.
04:49
One of the Broncos' D-linemen are able to cross face
04:52
and here Jackson Dart sees it and he just takes off here.
04:55
Resets and now he has himself a brand new pocket
04:58
to throw the football from.
05:01
Clean. Big play within the Giants offense.
05:04
Big play on the day.
05:06
And he was able to do that
05:07
in 12 personnel.
05:09
Again, 12 personnel.
05:11
Again, they go with this pistol look.
05:13
They were running this when they were giving him
05:15
a couple reps during the Cowboys game.
05:18
Remember, Cascadaboo scored on the touchdown.
05:20
The touchdown run.
05:21
Now they have Theo Johnson lined up at the X.
05:26
And they have the two receivers
05:27
over to the strong side of the football.
05:30
It's third and five.
05:32
I'm sure this is the play he's going to want back.
05:34
Obviously because not wanting to turn the football over.
05:39
But they got after him.
05:40
They got after him here.
05:41
They tricked him.
05:42
It happens.
05:43
And obviously I have to put this on tape.
05:45
And we'll watch this for a little bit.
05:50
But this is part of his progression.
05:52
This is part of having a rookie quarterback in there.
05:54
I counted for three touchdowns.
05:55
Well, through three touchdowns.
05:57
Ran one on the day.
05:59
Did have this interception.
06:01
But the way he was able to bounce back from this.
06:04
And he almost could have taken off.
06:05
I wish he would have taken off here.
06:08
So now that we've watched it.
06:09
Denver has one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight up.
06:14
One's going to drop.
06:15
But it's looking like cover zero.
06:17
Could it be cover zero right now?
06:19
No.
06:19
Because there's a safety hiding in the middle of the field.
06:22
Maybe if he would have dropped down.
06:24
It started to creep to play.
06:26
Wandale Robinson.
06:27
Yeah, you'd look at it.
06:28
It's cover zero.
06:30
But right now.
06:33
Because this backer is kind of stepping.
06:35
It looks like cover zero.
06:36
One.
06:37
Man to man.
06:38
Man to man.
06:39
Man to man.
06:40
And right here.
06:41
And we'll watch it from the tight.
06:43
You'll have two backers in the A-gaps.
06:47
And they ran the same blitz.
06:49
Basically against the Jets.
06:50
Only that this rusher ended up playing and being a spy.
06:56
Let's watch it.
06:58
Let's watch it from the tight.
06:59
See what he saw.
07:01
Obviously you want to burn that.
07:04
At least take the sack to get them.
07:06
To force them to call the timeout.
07:10
Got to take the good with the bad.
07:13
See these.
07:14
I mean.
07:14
They did a decent job with the protection.
07:17
There's leakage here.
07:18
There's leakage here.
07:20
He's able to step up.
07:22
Ah.
07:23
He gets on his legs.
07:24
And that messes up the throw.
07:25
But we're showing that.
07:26
Because he almost was able to get out of that.
07:30
In the future.
07:31
You want him to learn from this play.
07:33
But watch how he responds after this play.
07:39
And this is to show you how this kid is starting to get wise beyond his years.
07:45
This is fourth and 18 and a half.
07:49
Fourth and a 19.
07:50
The Giants need it.
07:52
Absolutely need a play right here.
07:55
All the hope.
07:55
Light on him.
07:59
Making a play here.
08:01
At quarterback.
08:02
Kicking the ball to his wide receiver.
08:05
His top receiver of the day.
08:07
His top receiver on the season right now.
08:09
Wandale Robinson.
08:11
Real quick with the concept.
08:13
He's trying to split.
08:15
Either.
08:16
He's running the inside go route here.
08:18
Up the numbers.
08:19
Or it's like a deep.
08:21
Like a deep corner.
08:22
For him to throw it up and over.
08:25
And to see what this.
08:26
One.
08:26
Trying to out leverage the safety.
08:28
Two.
08:29
Try to make this corner.
08:31
Fall off.
08:31
So he can hit.
08:33
Wandale Robinson on the squirrel route here.
08:36
But since it's 19 yards.
08:37
Wandale is going to be a little short.
08:39
But he'd be expecting this ball.
08:42
He'd be.
08:42
If he caught the ball here.
08:43
He'd be expecting to come back to it.
08:46
Catch it.
08:46
Make a move.
08:47
And know he has to get up field.
08:49
To get the first down.
08:50
Jackson Dart has to scramble.
08:52
And I'm going to tell you a couple things.
08:53
What I like about the scramble.
08:55
Or the by time.
08:56
In a little bit.
08:58
But he scrambles.
09:00
And watch the dart.
09:01
He's able to deliver.
09:03
On the run.
09:05
Across the body.
09:07
On the run.
09:08
A play needed to be made here y'all.
09:11
This is a franchise quarterback.
09:13
Making a franchise throw.
09:18
Big play needed to be made.
09:20
And he did it with his mobility.
09:21
He did it with his pocket presence.
09:27
Athleticism.
09:31
And he got tore up while he did it.
09:36
And he got hit with the roughing the pastor.
09:38
Broncos rushing four.
09:42
Running stunts.
09:45
Giants offensive line.
09:46
Doing a great job.
09:47
Holding up.
09:48
But here's what I like about Jackson Dart.
09:52
How he's able to manipulate the pass rush.
09:55
Look at him taking a deeper drop.
09:57
Putting his foot into the ground.
09:59
On that final drop step.
10:02
And reset.
10:03
And taking off.
10:04
In the gap.
10:05
Here.
10:06
In the C gap here.
10:07
To have extra time.
10:10
To throw the football.
10:11
Down the field.
10:14
By exaggerating.
10:16
Or backing up.
10:17
A little bit more.
10:18
On his drop step.
10:19
He's forcing these edge rushers.
10:21
Or these pass rushers.
10:23
To go up.
10:25
Two.
10:25
Three extra yards.
10:26
Than what they normally would.
10:28
On his regular drop step.
10:29
From the shotgun.
10:31
And that's buying his receivers time.
10:33
To get down the field.
10:35
He knows that he would be protected.
10:37
Because he's getting the tight end.
10:39
Theo Johnson.
10:40
And Tyrone Tracy Jr.
10:43
He has both those guys.
10:45
Chipping.
10:46
And getting out.
10:47
In the flat control.
10:49
And he knows.
10:49
You don't want to take the flat here.
10:51
Obviously.
10:52
You're not going to want to take the flat.
10:54
Because it's 4th and 19.
10:57
You know that you got to get ready.
10:58
For the pitch back.
10:59
If you had to throw it to the flat.
11:01
But don't.
11:02
That's just there.
11:03
For extra protection.
11:04
To buy you a little bit.
11:05
Extra time.
11:06
To widen these pass rushers out.
11:10
A little bit more.
11:12
To give you.
11:13
A little bit of extra pocket.
11:15
And for you to be able to step up.
11:17
Buy some time.
11:18
And look at his eyes.
11:19
Or down the field.
11:21
The entire time.
11:23
Dime delivered.
11:25
He has arrived.
11:28
Dime delivered.
11:29
And he took the hit.
11:30
Just watch the.
11:32
The rough in the pasture real quick.
11:38
Took a shot.
11:40
Delivered it.
11:42
First down.
11:43
Huge play.
11:44
Last but not least.
11:49
Game on the line.
11:52
Heavy.
11:53
Heavy personnel.
11:54
Empty formation.
11:56
Calls his own number.
11:58
Quarterback power.
12:00
Follows his block.
12:02
He's able to get low.
12:03
Get skinny.
12:04
And get vertical here.
12:07
Take flight.
12:08
Fought his way up in there.
12:11
37 seconds left in that game.
12:13
Looking back.
12:13
You wish he would.
12:14
I wish he was down.
12:16
Right here.
12:16
So they forced.
12:17
Denver to call a timeout.
12:19
And then they could have scored.
12:21
Or maybe even ran it down a little bit more.
12:23
Then score once or twice.
12:24
But.
12:24
Hey.
12:25
This was Jackson Dart.
12:26
Taking control of a football game.
12:28
And what everybody thought was the potential game winner.
12:33
But he really showed up.
12:35
He really showed out.
12:36
And he got all the respect from Jonathan Cooper.
12:39
In that Denver Broncos defense.
12:42
Got respect from the Giants fan base.
12:44
For the way that he was able to calm himself in the moment.
12:48
And make plays.
12:50
Big plays.
12:51
In the biggest moment of this football game.
12:53
And bounce back.
12:54
The Giants now have a quarterback to where you don't have to look for a quarterback in the next draft.
13:00
You look for pieces to build around the quarterback you now have for the future.
13:06
And that is Jackson Dart.
13:07
And that is Jackson Dart.
13:08
Okay.
