going deep
Reaching profound depths
Going deep means exploring a topic thoroughly or having an intensive, substantive conversation rather than staying on the surface.
Someone who goes deep digs into details, asks probing questions, or commits fully to understanding something: We went deep on the budget numbers, Let's go deep on this.
In sports, going deep means throwing or hitting a long ball, or advancing far into a competition: The quarterback went deep to the end zone.
