2 houston recievers
6 dolphin in coverage
houston receiver is WIDE OPEN for a 50 yard touchdown.
a few weeks ago McCain, like Quinn etc was a stud, a star in the making.
im sure its a mental mistake and will be corrected henceforth:sorry
its not like no one knows what anyone is doing.

Bingo.
What are you talking about? There are only 3 players in the pattern. One in the flat is covered. One up top is double covered and Hopkins is wide open. McCain is looking like a lost idiot.
Clip you post is late, take a SS of when mccain is next to that receiver.
yeah its at least debatable, but it wont be as much of an easy throw as the busted coverage... In other words, he's still in position to at least defend the play, while Mccain definitely isnt...
To be clear, the second part of my post wasnt about you at all... hope that was clear...
Houston was in max protect. They had 7 guys blocking, and only three in the pattern. If McCain's head isn't up his butt, this play fails. Here is Wake just after the ball is released:

are you familiar with the term "zone coverage"?
Oh no worries bro.
I agree, he isnt WIDE open like hopkins was, but I still think that zone fails there.

Sigh....you're not too familiar with zone vs man to man defense are you?? Watch vid again and he explains it perfectly.

you are aware Houston receivers were wide open on every play and their qb had the game of his life with 5 touchdown passes. its not like we were burned thru the air because we were killing the running game, they had 250 yards on the ground. I find it more than far fetched to think they wouldnt have scored on this play no matter what any of our 'defenders' did or didnt do.
What does that have to do with this play?
How is he beaten:
Go to about 30 seconds on the main film OP posted.
Mccain is top side of that WR's route. Safety is sitting deep midfield. If Mccain stays in his zone and transitions to hopkins, that whole top corner of the endzone is wide open. No way our FS can cover that. Who is that FS btw? Was that TJM? Minkah back there may have been able to make a play.
But when mccain follows that WR out of his zone, he takes away that top corner, which is where mccain ended up, looking lost. Totally agree there.
The only thing worse than someone that doesn't know what they are talking about....is someone who thinks they do.
I take a lot from these explanations bc I don't pretend do be a guru. A lot of other posters should do the same. When someone who obviously understands the x"s and o's better breaks it down clearly it should be heeded a bit more than it typically is.
What I see is a bunch of people working off of emotions trying to justify their frustrations on to things they WANT the problem to be. I'm sure there will be blame thrown on Tannehill in this thread too.
