How VR Helped Jayden Daniels TAKEOVER The NFL

[@ErikSeastead]

Ever since I heard of Jayden and the VR system, I knew for a fact, every serious football program in the country will have it.

[@JesusChrist2000BC]

I wish regular people could get access to this. Come on.

[@spazzfrmdao]

Shoutout GERMANY, they made a rookie go to NFC Championship

[@pschmidty7]

Unfortunately the company is privately owned. Can't buy stock in Cognilize.

[@chronikuad]

now it makes sense how he always seems to be one step ahead of everyone else

[@Tysheeno]

He’s like Ive already ran the simulation…. I’ve seen this before.

[@spazzfrmdao]

Exactly, he’s beat teams before he even played them probably 30 times

[@sergeantjones12]

And to him in person, it looks slow.

[@dmvbay2535]

I've been telling everyone this is what his superpowers actually are. the VR and more importantly, the extreme hard work he puts in daily from 4am to after everyone leaves at the end of the day that makes him successful. He has actually mastered the necessary steps needed to get to the next level.

[@RichardL-yz8fm]

VR is the cherry on top of Daniel’s 1. Innate intelligence 2. His elite athleticism 3. His mature, disciplined character. This is groundbreaking technology which will help all athletes, but the more intelligent and gifted the athlete the more difference this is gonna make.

[@Dj_Realest]

Nah it's the VR, he sucked before it

[@qret-dv5ym]

Agreed. The people hyping up VR aren't aware many athletes already use it and they're not amazing like Jayden.

[@tavius88]

He definitely used his VR training before he played the Lions 😂

[@techvof]

Commanders should keep this to themselves, competitive advantage

[@derrickctv1820]

Exactly why would u put information out like this. That’s why I loved Belicheck he kept everything tight to the vest. You never tell the enemy your secrets

[@escaped1534]

...he did it at LSU too, and his receivers were involved. It's no "secret!"

[@richbuddee6121]

The secret is out when he succeeds. He is in a position (and even stronger if they beat the Lions) to negotiate a nice percentage of the company to be their spokesman and single handedly truly put them on the map and 1000x the company. Hopefully he has savvy business minds in his camp to help him see where he is sitting and show him why he should stop giving out free, extremely valuable, press for them until he gets an appropriately lucrative deal, and then he can truly sell their brand like it actually deserves to be sold and all colleges that can afford it and definitely pro teams will have them by next year. It will be standard for any major college program, single handedly birthing a golden era in quarterbacks

[@theregulardegular5590]

@@escaped1534EXACTLY

[@terrycunningham8118]

The first coach or player who leaves LSU or the Commanders for another team will surely take knowledge of the technology with them. So you might get 1 season of exclusivity with this then it's over. Plus I'm sure that company wants to make money with their product and not just have one customer. They'll be knocking on team doors and pushing it hard.

[@ecinquebz]

VR is an aid. An important aid. But dude is already an elite QB. For QBs it's all about quick reads and quick decisions

[@JesusChrist2000BC]

VR Sports training is absolutely the future. You're going to have guys starting to do this at like 12 or 13 years old and they're going to be absolutely insane by the time they are just 18 or 19. You can get way more reps in with the VR than you can in real life with a coach and players that get tired. The only thing that concerns me is that this stuff is not available for regular people it's going to be financially locked so only rich people are going to benefit we have to prevent that from happening.

[@sidelinetalks]

Spot on

[@TheatricsOfTheAbsurd]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@sidelinetalksbruh excellent video. And this is why I believe Jalen takes off and makes a decision to run much quicker than the other QB’s in the NFL. He is very deliberate and decisive when he takes off and runs the ball. And his ball carrying instincts are excellent. Phenomenal Video🫡 gotta give you some props too

[@sidelinetalks]

Thank you so much bro🤝🏾

[@richbuddee6121]

Nice. Had no idea he had that at LSU. That company about to be a billion dollar company with every major college and pro team jumping all over it

[@greenanddan]

Cliff Kingsbury was sweating when he got another QB that has a contractual clause requiring video game play 😂

[@ibrodinho]

😂

[@bigbrotherinlife1654]

If I was the Commanders I would purchase exclusive rights to have a competitive edge. I wouldn't want any other team to have access to this technology in the NFL 😂😂😂😂

[@SVLOKEE]

Great video! This technology is very impressive, definitely looks like a game changer for preparations before a game.

[@reginalddyson9716]

They scienced the SHIT out of the game. So cool!

[@tswagg504]

😂

[@aaadesktop]

Same like the kid who competed in actual Nissan Lemans races because he played Gran Turismo a lot. He's been winning a lot ever since. A movie was made about him too.

[@AndrewSarmast]

I knew he was using this at LSU . This is why he looks so comfortable with his position in the NFL . Can’t wait for the company to go public !!

[@Hendo626]

This Vid IS fire!!! Love that the organization is putting whats best for JD ahead of there own perspectives of how they feel things need to be.

[@2dabornot]

DMV representin’

[@sidelinetalks]

Yessir🤝🏾

[@theeory1]

Solid video I knew Jayden employed VR but this behind the look scene is awesome.

[@racerxfiles1111]

This is astonishing actually. This is going to be a movie guaranteed if we go to SB- but regardless this is a literal game changer.

[@tonyriedel4421]

Cool video. I know some of the vets on the offense were really impressed with Daniels command of the huddle and play calling, had no idea that VR is probably the reason

[@melissah8415]

The fact that QBs can still "practice" even though they can't physically practice is a real game changer. It's unlikely that every NFL QB would benefit as much from the VR as Daniels does, but it would still be a pretty big number. I would bet that Dan Snyder wouldn't have bought the VR system. The play calls started getting longer and more complicated once the put the coach in the QB's helmet.

[@dmvbay2535]

He benefit and success are tied to his extreme hard work and dedication. Not every player using this VR will succeed with it.

[@bnug242]

great video, it goes to show how important it is to experiment with new technology early. No idea how this channel only has 546 subs (547 now*). I think the biggest reasons why VR is so helpful are: 1. More repetitions -- one of the biggest problems in football is how taxing it is on the body. This tech allows him to healthily get more reps at his own pace, his pace being faster than the team's. 2. Higher quality reps -- in VR, the defense's skill level is no longer limited by the players on the field. Theoretically with the help of machine learning, jayden daniels could practice in VR against any team, ever. This could be the 2007 NE Patriots, the 2023 Chiefs, or next week's opponent. They'd just have to create a dataset consisting of the offense and defense's plays, with each play containing an array of each player's movement on the field. Then train a generative machine learning model from that dataset and map it to VR game engine, and you QB training sim heaven. An ML model (aka AI) would then be your new scout defense, and more accurate then ever. No more needing to teach a relatively mediocre scout defense how to play similarly to next week's opponent. 3. Finetuned control over reps-- as you said in the video, the QB and coaches have way more control over each simulated rep. They can speed it up, slow it down, or replay it exactly. That's impossible without VR. side note: The QB position is perfect for VR for a few reasons. For one, the QB is generally stationary; it would be harder to use VR in other sports like basketball or soccer because the player's position (self/one training with the VR headset) is not as constant. For example, in basketball, the defenseman's position is more dependent on/reactive to the ball handler's fine movements, making it harder to simulate with AI. You'd need way more data, and it'd need to be MUCH more precise, almost impossibly so. I have a feeling football is about to get interesting... If this technology continues to progress as I described (not sure how much of this is currently being implemented), young QBs could end up being substantially better than veteran QBs. Defenses will have to adapt quickly, causing the sport to develop further and raising the bar (skill-wise), rapidly. Really excited to see him play next week. If they've already developed what I've suggested here, he should be practicing against the Eagles @ Lincoln field, at this very moment. I'll be rooting for him!

[@sidelinetalks]

Preciate the love bro🤝🏾. You’re spot on about EVERYTHING

[@IceCubE4425]

" Yeah bro come through, I'll be done playing the Legion of Boom on VR, Tomorrow will be the 2000s Ravens" lol

[@JNM202]

Thanks for this vid! I hope it is widely viewed.

[@sidelinetalks]

Thank you!🫶🏽

[@btf203]

Saw a tweet about this - definitely gonna be huge next couple years. Drake Maye using it too

[@taih588]

He need to invest in that company asap because he have vets saying that he's doing things a rookie shouldn't be doing so during the off season a lot of people will be studying him and that VR training will come up and these teams are going to want to purchase sets for their qb. His rookie contract is very small but he put that team on his back and deserve more money, but since there's a cap on rookie contracts he can get some more money through investing in this company that will become big, hell I'm about to see if i can invest in it because this reminds me of the ring light and how Nas got all of that money because of it.

[@MikeisHim18]

Jayden Daniels is him🔥😤

[@GameTightWitGT]

Awesome content bruh 👍🏾

[@RXFME]

Great video!!

[@sidelinetalks]

Thank you!

[@DeepfriedBaby]

I swear, this is the only good use of VR. Experience for situations that are high stimulus, high data, and reactions speed matter.

[@michaelwillever3522]

Interesting video. Subbed!

[@melissah8415]

What's sad is that high schools with wealthy parents or boosters will buy this system for their school, making high school football more unfair than it already is.

[@aldofalla7562]

It could definitely be unfair at first, but I think this technology will trickle down and become pretty affordable as competitors enter the market.

[@UnderGroundSkoopTV]

More prepared and well executed *

[@JoshWilliams123]

Great video! Subbed!

[@glennotf]

From a learning perspective, it’s not about reps. It’s about variation, surprise, and interspersed contexts. Hit him once with a blitz, then with tight man-to-man and he learns, almost by accident, about the common tasks he has to build on to master both. Repetition matters, but that matters about as much as cognitive (not “visual”) learning if done on their own. Guaranteed they don't have repeating a okay over and over and over. They work the play, then a different play with similar, but not the same, requirements. Interspersion. Practice it differently after a few reps.

[@nortiusmaximus1789]

This "informs" me that "Interspersion" may follow one or more common play cores among many (not to over-simplify) and follow down the play 'branches' based upon Defensive looks and actions. Incredibly complex if the 'reads' are also evolving within the play call (Pre-Snap, Snap, pocket drop, maturing play's run lanes, throwing lanes, etc.). I can visualize! Now imagine if random variables are thrown in - not just a progression of reads choices but random uh-ohs such as one branch gets closed by a trip, slip, or runner/receiver error, line blocking failure, D line physicality bringing horizontal pressure And/Or vertical pressure. One hears Commentators say things like, "They run so many plays off this formation." "It's the Jumbo package." "Motion will tell us". @glennotf You've made such an eye opening comment! WOW!! I'll finish my thought despite having developed a migraine! This year (I'm 73). I've been absorbing football theory via YT, Chase Daniels, The Quarterback School, Matty Dubbs, PFT, the O-Line, and programs of that ilk. There are many great Channels out there that explain and teach, and I can hardly wait for the "HOME" version of 'QB Wanna B' and spinoffs. And, as an aside, I had the opportunity to experience early VR in 1995 at what was the DoD Information Resources Management College (IRMC). I thought it was "kinda neat" back then but had neither the time, resources, or direction to chase the total infrastructure growth necessary as mapped to Military War Fighting (which was evolving as well) to give us such a wide-spread Immersion opportunity.

[@MaxChilla]

great video!

[@sidelinetalks]

NOOOOO😂😂😂😂

[@bobhope707]

After his stellar season, this is going to be more hype than ChatGPT. Also: If I was a QB in high school I would no-life this shit 24/7 literally till the day I graduate from college there's no limit to practice time now. You dont get tired, can repeat the same look literally ad infinitum, can walk it through w/ a coach watching on an iPad. This is a game changer.

[@giuseppea2610]

So jd5 is like a cyborg??? 🤷... 🤔😳 🔥🔥🔥🔥🏈🔥🔥🔥🔥 BORG 5 🔥🏈🔥💪💪💪💪

[@nexusyang4832]

"Practice like you play so when you play, it's just like practice." - Coach Prime With this tech, it allows him to get in as many reps as he wants anywhere, anytime. If he's willing to put in the work to train then it's just a matter of time. It's pretty clear from the results because things don't seem to phase him.

[@e2rqey]

He really been playing on All-Madden in VR

[@reubenmangin1388]

The dude is playing chess while the other QBs are playing checkers. That is an intelligent and talented individual.

[@pejoly2]

Awesome video. Thanks

[@the_shadow_healer]

VR combined with playing five years of college ball. Most college QBs need to play four years in college to be ready for the pros.

[@oclevi5163]

Every quarterback can’t do this. It takes a lot of hard work

[@sidelinetalks]

Never thought about it like this but yes 100%

[@derickocrusher]

This might not work for everybody. But I am glad it works for JD

[@davivman6009]

Great video! I bet this will eventually become as ubiquitous as watching game film.

[@DennisMurphey]

Outstanding Video, used VR in DOD training and it works! Great adaptions smart Coaching. Ground breaking! Now apply to training operators for 3D Printing concrete foundations and homes in Ukraine, Gaza and Los Angele. Rebuild faster and safer with tech and VR training. Write the book on VR adaption, share the lessons. Wonderful, Dennis in Virginia

[@sidelinetalks]

This is so cool thanks for sharing

[@JochenHeistermann]

I work as a scientiest in AI. Use VR for gaming. It is obvious that with AI you can learn skills like scanning the right option for a QB.

[@DMVPRIDE10]

if the commanders make the Super Bowl, JD will have two weeks of VR mental reps trying to beat the Chiefs defense. He will be so ready

[@lordsaunders5688]

Pilots got to have a certain amount of vr hrs before they fly . Or something like that

[@michaelh6439]

Remarkable talent. Lets go commanders

yeah nah, this is absolutely NOT a coincidence

[@stevequach1869]

It takes a certain person to benefit from this. It’s not for everyone. I’m glad JD5 gots it 😂

[@mannie_b]

The nfl dose not talk adout this enough. Ehen JD5 was drafted and i herd about the VR, I knew then . He was gonna be great.

Closest thing to cheating

[@franklinjackson8203]

Dude, you are giving out too much information to the competition. However, I have to say that there are not many people who could use the technology to the level that Jayden uses it. Also, you mentioned Bryce Young, and I would not be surprised to find out that Young started to use it this year.

[@sidelinetalks]

Promise you NFL execs aren’t watching my vids😂

[@davidhogenmiller248]

Great vid. Really good work. This could explain why Mariota looks like a 10 year starter now. He must be using this instead of getting starter reps. Daniels playing without a wrist band is stunning. I think people assume it's because the offense is simple but this must have a lot to do with it. Andrew Luck used something like this at Stanford but the compute power didn't exist back then so it required a lot of cameras during practice so I don't think it ever got widely adopted.

[@wgold20107]

Do you think no other NFL team knows about this?

[@sidelinetalks]

Cognilize actually offered their service to a few pro teams pre agreement with LSU, they all said no bc it wasn’t fully done. Marucci has said they’re going to help a couple other pro teams (I think Texans and CJ were 1 of them) but won’t help all. They’re gonna be selective

[@kb4444]

How about Harris purchase the company to keep it exclusive lol

[@bennieoliver357]

You have to be dedicated to use this product it's not going to work for anybody.

[@anonymoususer1824]

Did this guy just say football is the most cognitively stimulating sport? 😂😂 You need to broaden your horizon, my guy. Formula 1 requires 10 times the cognitive ability of an NFL QB. The amount of settings you have to adjust on each lap, managing tires, strategy, racing at over 200mph sometimes in the rain and you dont get a timeout, close to 2 hours straight. You dont get constant commercial breaks to regroup or a halftime LOL. This ignorant statement really gave me a chuckle lol
