Of course, you see Stephen on ESPN. You can read his work there as well.

Stephen, I was just asking that question of, so if the nickel is just the fifth corner, right?

0:18.3

Isn't that what the nickel is?

1:28.3

But I'll tell you what is uncommon.

1:33.7

What is uncommon is oftentimes for a team in preseason game number one to show a lot and give you indication as to what they may look like, schematically speaking, in the regular season.
