Smart Football’s Chris B. Brown calls in, a Las Vegas Raiders Team Visit with Vic Tafur and Tashan Reed, and the Miami Dolphins Defense in Ted Nguyen’s Film School

First up, Robert welcomes football internet celebrity, Chris Brown, to the show to discuss a variety of topics including Lamar Jackson and the Ravens offense, what intrigues him about the Kliff Kingsbury-Kyler Murray Air Raid experiment so far, the evolution of offensive motion over time across the league, how tempo on offense affects the game-within-the-game between plays, and much more.

Then, The Athletic’s Vic Tafur and Tashan Reed stop by in this week’s Team Visit to take a closer look at the Las Vegas Raiders, including fan feelings about the team two and a half years into the Jon Gruden Era, how Derek Carr has outperformed expectations so far this season, if the defense can improve enough to compliment the offense during a potential playoff berth, and more.

To close things out, in Ted Nguyen’s Film School, the guys break down the Miami Dolphins defense and discuss what the Fins are doing differently than the rest of the NFL, why other teams can’t replicate their high pressure defensive schemes, how pressure can dictate what an opponent does on offense, and more.
