00:00One thing we're taught as receivers when we're running these shallow crosses.
00:03Here's the center, right?
00:05A lot of times, depending on what offense you're in and who's running that shallow cross,
00:10you're not allowed to look until you at least clear the center.
00:15Now, when you look, that means you are open.
00:18That means you are ready for the football.
00:20So when Adonai Mitchell gets here, he's looking.
00:24That means I'm ready for the football.
00:26But here's what that didn't allow him to do.
00:28Dude, there is a curl the flat player, a curl defender right here.
00:33You're not looking at him, but by you not looking, you're not able now to navigate if I'm sitting down
00:40or if I'm going to pass up this defender, if I'm going to take it.
00:44I can take this space right here, which, okay.
00:47Adonai Mitchell probably thinks that, all right, once I cross this defender's face,
00:52I've got a lot of real estate.
00:53I've got a lot of grass here.
00:55But no, Brady Cook is trying to protect him with the throw.
00:59He sees that, all right, there's not enough room out there for you to really catch and run or do anything with the football.
01:05And he's seeing this defender break on his upfield shoulder to try and make a play on the football and the wide receiver.
01:15Brady Cook is trying to protect him with this throw, expecting him to sit this down right here.
01:21Sit down, show a big chest, show your hands, be a big target.
01:25But no, because this is bad route discipline or just confusion between the two.
01:31He keeps running.
01:32It's the ball thrown behind him.
