- 0:41Speaker 1: gonna be playing.
- 0:42Speaker 2: We know the atmosphere against the Eagles is gonna be electric.
- 0:46Speaker 2: And then we have a divisional game against the Texans,
- 0:48Speaker 2: which again is gonna be electric. It's like no exaggeration,
- 0:53Speaker 2: but you can fill the goosebumps for both games. It's
- 0:57Speaker 2: like I remember when we last had it in London.
- 1:00Speaker 2: Two games. It's just epic because it's you're like when
- 1:06Speaker 2: you have one game, it's great, it's awesome, but you
- 1:08Speaker 2: have so much build up that when it's finished, you're like, huh, okay,
- 1:12Speaker 2: next October. But it's like cool, first weekend done second weekend.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Reese, we went through the whole of the scheduled, didn't we,
- 1:21Speaker 1: And we were saying, you know who we would like
- 1:25Speaker 1: to see who he you know, predicted might be. And
- 1:29Speaker 1: these are like two of the best possible opponents I
- 1:32Speaker 1: think in terms of pure excitement. And you could easily say, oh,
- 1:37Speaker 1: Jay's biased. Jay's going to say that, Well, no, I'm
- 1:41Speaker 1: being completely sincere Eagles is going to be a massive
- 1:43Speaker 1: game and as you said before, a divisional game as well,
- 1:45Speaker 1: when the Houston Texans in fact, do you know what, Rees,
- 1:47Speaker 1: We're going to be breaking down our London opponents in
- 1:50Speaker 1: the company of mister Jason A. Bell on today's episode
- 1:55Speaker 1: of two Your Talk, we'll speak as well, because obviously
- 1:57Speaker 1: it's not just the games in London that have been announced,
- 2:00Speaker 1: it's the whole schedule release for twenty twenty six. But
- 2:02Speaker 1: maybe this is the most important bit, Reese, that we
- 2:06Speaker 1: should take out of it. Ticket details for those games
- 2:11Speaker 1: coming up today. On this episode of two Talk, Reese,
- 2:14Speaker 1: have you seen the other big news has come out
- 2:16Speaker 1: of Jacksonville?
- 2:18Speaker 2: Give me oh, we're going with the We're going with
- 2:21Speaker 2: the haircut.
- 2:22Speaker 1: We're going with the hair exactly, y the hair cut.
- 2:26Speaker 1: That definitely. I wasn't the only person that when I
- 2:28Speaker 1: saw it, I was like, is this.
- 2:31Speaker 2: Real? Is that was what was your initial reaction?
- 2:35Speaker 1: My initial reaction was, I think that Trevor is a
- 2:38Speaker 1: good looking man, but I don't think you should get
- 2:42Speaker 1: a haircut.
- 2:43Speaker 2: That's my reaction. That was my reaction.
- 2:46Speaker 1: But I was a bit shocked. I was like, surely
- 2:48Speaker 1: this isn't isn't real. I mean, it wasn't real, because the.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Heck I think I think Trevor. Trevor's a handsome dude. Trevor,
- 2:55Speaker 2: I'll tell you that to your face. You're a handsome brother.
- 2:57Speaker 2: But I think the cut was terrible. I think the
- 3:00Speaker 2: actual the actual cut so bad, like it needed it
- 3:05Speaker 2: needed like a skin fade and then like he can
- 3:08Speaker 2: kind of work the top a little bit like it
- 3:11Speaker 2: just looked. I think I saw one comment that said
- 3:13Speaker 2: he looks like Ellen DeGeneres, and I just thought I
- 3:18Speaker 2: can see that. And I think that's because of there
- 3:20Speaker 2: was no skin fade. Trevor, get the fade and it
- 3:24Speaker 2: would work. I'm actually for him to cut the hair,
- 3:27Speaker 2: but I think just get a skin fade, Trevor. Look
- 3:30Speaker 2: when you're in October I'm gonna take you to a barbers.
- 3:33Speaker 3: What's your like?
- 3:35Speaker 1: So you're gonna go to your barbers? What's your barbers
- 3:37Speaker 1: and what's what you're saying is gonna happen?
- 3:39Speaker 2: So okay, So Jay, I used to go to a barber's.
- 3:43Speaker 2: I don't go anymore, only because it takes me too
- 3:45Speaker 2: long to get there. So I actually cut my own
- 3:47Speaker 2: hair so I can cut Trevor's hair. I don't want
- 3:50Speaker 2: that pressure because I don't want to be responsible for
- 3:53Speaker 2: any If there's some superstitious going on then because yes,
- 3:58Speaker 2: don't want that. But I know a great barber. I
- 4:01Speaker 2: don't think the team will let me bring Trevor Lawrence
- 4:04Speaker 2: to where my old barbershop was in Plumstead. That's not
- 4:08Speaker 2: gonna happen for many reasons. Shout out to Plumstead. It
- 4:11Speaker 2: just they't got to happen. But Lively Lively Barbershop in Plumpstead, Trevor,
- 4:16Speaker 2: we could get a couple of vans, get some security,
- 4:19Speaker 2: and we're taking to Plumstead. Get the trim, and I
- 4:21Speaker 2: guarantee it will look good. So I'm for I'm for
- 4:24Speaker 2: the cut, but it just needs to be done.
- 4:28Speaker 1: This needs a skin fade.
- 4:30Speaker 2: To clarify it wasn't right. We know, okay, cool? You
- 4:34Speaker 2: know that my mum I guarantee when I see her
- 4:37Speaker 2: this weekend, she's got to tell you. Did you see
- 4:39Speaker 2: Trevor had a haircut? Mum?
- 4:41Speaker 1: It wasn't real that it looked quite nice release. It
- 4:45Speaker 1: was for the schedule release, uh and to a lot
- 4:48Speaker 1: of teams. Basically every team now does like an entertaining
- 4:51Speaker 1: like schedule release, and I thought that was pretty pretty
- 4:52Speaker 1: good for the Jaggs. To be honest, I'm going to
- 4:55Speaker 1: go through some of the highlights of the schedule that's
- 4:57Speaker 1: been announced. Reason you can let me know what you think.
- 5:01Speaker 1: I'm not going to go through every single game because
- 5:02Speaker 1: obviously we'll go through the UK games in a second.
- 5:06Speaker 1: First game, obviously that's going to be a big game.
- 5:08Speaker 1: Is someone that the first one that we're all looking
- 5:10Speaker 1: forward to? Cleveland Browns at home, first game of the season.
- 5:15Speaker 2: Ree's opinion, Well, I like this classic NFL making stories
- 5:20Speaker 2: wherever possible, especially on opening games. I wouldn't underestimate the Browns.
- 5:24Speaker 2: It's a little bit of a Colorado Buffalo love story
- 5:27Speaker 2: here with Shador Sanders, who's fighting through his QB one
- 5:31Speaker 2: spot of the Browns versus Travis Hunter. Those two have history.
- 5:35Speaker 2: It's kind of the brothers are going against each other.
- 5:39Speaker 2: I think there's a good story there. Miles Garrett is
- 5:41Speaker 2: a beast is going to be causing Trevors and problems.
- 5:44Speaker 2: I think we're going to be very confident going into it,
- 5:47Speaker 2: but it's going to be a challenging game. And I
- 5:51Speaker 2: think it's really interesting because it's a bit of a
- 5:54Speaker 2: the opening game. It's kind of like, okay, start as
- 5:56Speaker 2: you mean to go on, and I think for both
- 5:59Speaker 2: teams it's pretty that game is very important. It says
- 6:03Speaker 2: a lot. It says a lot. How about you? What
- 6:06Speaker 2: do you think?
- 6:07Speaker 1: I think it's a good one to start with. There's
- 6:09Speaker 1: two different ways of thinking about it, though, isn't there?
- 6:11Speaker 1: Because you could have like that, if you had like
- 6:13Speaker 1: the hardest game in your schedule on the first game
- 6:14Speaker 1: and you manage to get a win, the enthusiasm, the
- 6:17Speaker 1: excitement from the fan base will be massive. But when
- 6:20Speaker 1: it comes to a game like this, this is a
- 6:22Speaker 1: winnable game. I don't think I'm being cocky with that.
- 6:25Speaker 1: This is a winner, so hopefully it will, you know,
- 6:29Speaker 1: want to know? Sounds pretty good? To me and let's
- 6:31Speaker 1: move forward. What about Prime Time Week nine, Baltimore Ravens.
- 6:38Speaker 1: These are the games where you know, when you're like
- 6:41Speaker 1: on those island games, if you manage to get that victory,
- 6:44Speaker 1: then I think it says a lot and it speaks
- 6:47Speaker 1: to the whole of the country or the whole of
- 6:49Speaker 1: the world, really, doesn't it.
- 6:50Speaker 2: It's interesting you say that because like I'm kind of
- 6:53Speaker 2: going through the schedule as well, and yeah, when we
- 6:56Speaker 2: get to the Ravens game, it's like very time and
- 7:00Speaker 2: we come back from London. I always feel like London's
- 7:03Speaker 2: a bit of a not fork in the road, but
- 7:05Speaker 2: kind of when things change, when things like right come
- 7:08Speaker 2: back and then we go on our run. It seems
- 7:10Speaker 2: to be the case. So if anything's like previous years,
- 7:14Speaker 2: you would think, let's see how London goes. But you
- 7:17Speaker 2: come back from London, is it the game? After I
- 7:19Speaker 2: think we got one, get the cold, the home.
- 7:22Speaker 1: You've got the buy, then you've got Colts and you're right,
- 7:24Speaker 1: and then it's then us Ravens. Yeah, you're right.
- 7:27Speaker 2: Freaking It says a lot. We're stamping like we're here,
- 7:31Speaker 2: we're here and we're not playing around.
- 7:34Speaker 1: That could be a big stretch actually because it's Colts, Ravens,
- 7:37Speaker 1: Titans as well, so two divisional games and then that's
- 7:39Speaker 1: a tough game in the middle there. How about this stat,
- 7:45Speaker 1: This is the stat I'm gonna at nine of the
- 7:49Speaker 1: last fourteen games and not in Jacksonville, So only five
- 7:52Speaker 1: of the last fourteen games are going to actually be
- 7:55Speaker 1: like in Jacksonville. Does that make sense?
- 7:57Speaker 2: That's a weird that's a weird start. That's, I guess
- 7:59Speaker 2: what I'm saying, horrible, But I don't think it actually
- 8:02Speaker 2: is that horrible because I think the biggest one that
- 8:05Speaker 2: when I've looked at the schedule is last game of
- 8:07Speaker 2: the season and you're going to the Colts now again,
- 8:12Speaker 2: could be one of those It's basically hopefully it's not
- 8:14Speaker 2: and hopefully we got it salted before, but it could
- 8:16Speaker 2: be one of those whoever wins get some playoffs. Let's
- 8:19Speaker 2: take ourselves to September start of the regular season, and
- 8:23Speaker 2: every week we're going to be discussing these games and
- 8:25Speaker 2: looking forward to the upcoming game. But just to know
- 8:28Speaker 2: that we're going to be discussing the Jags against these teams, Cowboys, Stealers, Bears, Ravens, Eagles, Like,
- 8:44Speaker 2: we've got some big games and a lot of these.
- 8:48Speaker 2: I'm not saying they're upsets, because I feel a lot
- 8:50Speaker 2: of those we can put us odds with them. But
- 8:53Speaker 2: I just feel like we've got a lot of games
- 8:55Speaker 2: which are really that we can put our stamp on
- 8:58Speaker 2: who we are. Go to them for a win. I
- 9:01Speaker 2: think Eles win, go to Baltimore win, to go to
- 9:08Speaker 2: Chicago get a win. And then we've got coach Cohen
- 9:11Speaker 2: going in the locker room and doing his running in
- 9:13Speaker 2: and go. Like that's what I mean, Like we got
- 9:17Speaker 2: some that has to build at some point. I think
- 9:20Speaker 2: to your point, I actually think you're right on the
- 9:22Speaker 2: Ravens game. That might be the biggest game of the
- 9:26Speaker 2: regular season. You take on Lamar and co. And what
- 9:30Speaker 2: is it like a late yeah, one fifteen hour time,
- 9:33Speaker 2: it's going to be the game of the week.
- 9:34Speaker 1: It is apparently the twelfth hardest schedule in the NFL,
- 9:38Speaker 1: depending on who you read I suppose. So that's road, Yeah,
- 9:42Speaker 1: semi middle of the road. I'd say We're going to
- 9:44Speaker 1: be joined in a second by Jason bell Reese. But
- 9:46Speaker 1: first I figure out I figured that we should really
- 9:48Speaker 1: just talk about, well, how can we get tickets to
- 9:52Speaker 1: these games? Yes, in London, because I guess that that
- 9:54Speaker 1: is kind of like the priority do you know what
- 9:58Speaker 1: I mean? We should really be talking about that. And
- 10:00Speaker 1: because these tickets go on sale sooner than you think.
- 10:02Speaker 1: So tickets are now on sale to Priority Group one
- 10:07Speaker 1: fancy And if you have purchased a ticket to watch
- 10:10Speaker 1: the Jags at Wembley, you qualify for this group. So
- 10:14Speaker 1: if you sign into a Ticketmaster account as a previous buyer,
- 10:18Speaker 1: you'll be able to secure your favorite seat to watch

- 10:25Speaker 2: And don't worry though, if you are part of the
- 10:27Speaker 2: Union Jack's family. Your Priority window starts on Friday. And yes,
- 10:31Speaker 2: that is this Friday, which I know for a lot
- 10:33Speaker 2: of people is Payday. Just say amen. So each yep yep.

- 10:40Speaker 2: you'll get an email of a link to purchase on

- 10:44Speaker 2: sure you log into your ticket Master account select one
- 10:47Speaker 2: of the great seats available. And I love Wembley. Just
- 10:51Speaker 2: every seat. I'm not gonna lie. Every seat is, Every
- 10:54Speaker 2: seat is Wembley.
- 10:55Speaker 3: It works.
- 10:56Speaker 1: First time I went to Wembley, Ree's first time I went
- 10:58Speaker 1: to Wembley was to watch the football and it was
- 11:00Speaker 1: in one of those like way at the top and
- 11:04Speaker 1: it was fine. It was great. And I've been to
- 11:06Speaker 1: see the Jags at Wembley and I literally had the
- 11:10Speaker 1: top seat, one of the top seats. It's still a
- 11:13Speaker 1: great view. It's still a great view. So whatever seat
- 11:16Speaker 1: you get, like you're going to have a great time.
- 11:18Speaker 1: A great time, I think.
- 11:20Speaker 2: And Jay, I've also got other news coming out of Jacksonville.
- 11:24Speaker 2: This is pretty fresh. So we're delighted to let you
- 11:27Speaker 2: know that this summer we have Raw on tour. Yes,
- 11:32Speaker 2: our very own cheerleading superstars, well we have two of
- 11:35Speaker 2: them that coming overhead into the UK to help us
- 11:39Speaker 2: officially launch a project involving youngsters in the Midlands, alongside
- 11:44Speaker 2: dancers from the Birmingham Royal Ballet, plus a girl's only
- 11:48Speaker 2: flag event in Birmingham too. We're here for the girls
- 11:51Speaker 2: in Brum and I love this. I love that it's
- 11:53Speaker 2: not London. Oh yeah, londoner's get spoiled with a thing,
- 12:01Speaker 2: So I'm glad this is in Birmingham. And I also
- 12:04Speaker 2: love the fact that the raw are going to be
- 12:07Speaker 2: telling their family where are you going for the store
- 12:10Speaker 2: and you got to see you got to see Big Ben.
- 12:12Speaker 1: No, they're going to be saying, I'm going to Birmingham.
- 12:15Speaker 1: Oh you're going to Birmingham, Alabama. No, no, No, it's
- 12:20Speaker 1: very different. It's a different place, different place, different place.
- 12:23Speaker 2: What's the shopping center, the ball ring? Many a good
- 12:27Speaker 2: weekends in the boring.
- 12:28Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 12:28Speaker 2: I love Birmingham.
- 12:30Speaker 1: Buthering, I think that's what it's something, something that's brilliant.
- 12:34Speaker 2: So if you do know, if you've got a daughter,
- 12:37Speaker 2: or you know anyone who you feel like would want
- 12:40Speaker 2: to go to that event, then I love the flag events.
- 12:42Speaker 2: I think they're brilliant. I think it's like it's all
- 12:45Speaker 2: part of the build up. That's what I love. Part
- 12:47Speaker 2: of the build up. It's like this long journey towards
- 12:50Speaker 2: October and then you get to see some of the
- 12:52Speaker 2: people that have gone to some of these events in
- 12:54Speaker 2: October and you're like, oh.
- 12:56Speaker 1: I've been to you know, jag jagtag events to flag
- 12:58Speaker 1: events and it is amazing. How as somebody who is
- 13:04Speaker 1: not particularly athletically gifted, I'm not going to speak on
- 13:06Speaker 1: behalf of you, Reese, But how unbelievable like these some
- 13:12Speaker 1: of these people are, like how talented they are at
- 13:15Speaker 1: playing like flag football, and I'm just here. It's like
- 13:18Speaker 1: I can't. I can barely throw it like fifteen yards.
- 13:20Speaker 1: I tried to get Phoebe Scheckter once showed me how
- 13:25Speaker 1: to throw a football right, and it was let's just
- 13:28Speaker 1: say that she spent a long time trying to show
- 13:31Speaker 1: me how to throw a football correctly, and even then
- 13:34Speaker 1: it didn't quite work. So kudos to anybody who goes
- 13:37Speaker 1: to these flag events, because they are You're a very
- 13:40Speaker 1: talented bunch, and much much more talented than I am,
- 13:42Speaker 1: and probably Reese as well.
- 13:44Speaker 2: Please send the video and speak for yourself. Have you
- 13:48Speaker 2: not seen me kicking in with Cam Newton?
- 13:53Speaker 1: Have you not seen me return with Parker Washington? Parker
- 13:57Speaker 1: Washington laughs, But I think it's just because he's having
- 14:00Speaker 1: such a fun time that I'm going to say that
- 14:02Speaker 1: rather than laughing at you, he's laughing with you.
- 14:04Speaker 2: And I love this. I'm seeing Parker on a lot
- 14:06Speaker 2: of the social graphics. This is like, I think this
- 14:11Speaker 2: is something that this is an interesting topic, so let's
- 14:14Speaker 2: explore it. How do teams figure out who they're going
- 14:18Speaker 2: to put on their graphics.
- 14:20Speaker 1: It's really interesting.
- 14:22Speaker 2: Yeah, so you go to it. You think every year
- 14:24Speaker 2: you kind of tend to go to a stadium and
- 14:27Speaker 2: you know you're going to see Trevor. Trevor's like he's
- 14:30Speaker 2: you go to the bank and there's Trevor. But then
- 14:33Speaker 2: you think, who were putting Josh heines Allen, Yeah, we're
- 14:39Speaker 2: going to Travis Hunter. Yeah. Who else do we got?
- 14:43Speaker 2: You know, Brian Thomas Junior. But it's interesting to seeing
- 14:47Speaker 2: Parker on a lot of these new kind of if
- 14:50Speaker 2: it's the leaflets or the brochures or the programs, that's fascinating.
- 14:54Speaker 2: And I've always wondered what what actually goes who decides that.
- 14:58Speaker 2: I don't know if it's marketing on the team or
- 15:01Speaker 2: you got I just think it's really like fun to
- 15:03Speaker 2: think about how many players that the Jags could put
- 15:05Speaker 2: on those posters.
- 15:06Speaker 1: At the moment, and how none of them feel like
- 15:08Speaker 1: they were just like out of place. If you had
- 15:10Speaker 1: three people We've spoken about this on the podcast, I
- 15:13Speaker 1: think before last year, like if you had three people
- 15:16Speaker 1: to be on that poster outside the stadium, like who'd it?
- 15:21Speaker 1: Because you know, Trevor Lawrence would be there.
- 15:24Speaker 2: We can asks as well.
- 15:26Speaker 1: Okay, my three would be Trevor Lawrence, Yes, yeah, it
- 15:31Speaker 1: would be josh Hanz Allen, Yes, and it would be Oh,
- 15:36Speaker 1: this is tough.
- 15:36Speaker 2: Do you know what, I know? Who you're going to
- 15:39Speaker 2: go with?
- 15:40Speaker 3: Who do you think I'm going to go with?
- 15:42Speaker 2: I think you're actually going to be a bit of
- 15:43Speaker 2: a surprize. You're going to get defensive. I think you're
- 15:45Speaker 2: going to go t Walker.
- 15:47Speaker 1: No, it did cross my mind. It did cross my mind.
- 15:50Speaker 1: But I think you need to have another offensive player there.
- 15:54Speaker 1: And I agreed that you are right when you say,
- 15:57Speaker 1: because you could have Brian Thomas Jr. And you could
- 15:59Speaker 1: have Travis Hunter. But I think that, especially in the
- 16:03Speaker 1: last twelve months, Parker Washington has had so much, it
- 16:07Speaker 1: was so integral to the joy specifically like the joy
- 16:11Speaker 1: and the exciting happiness of the fan base, that I
- 16:14Speaker 1: think that Parker Washington deserves his stand on Jagg's twenty
- 16:19Speaker 1: twenty sixth season Mount rushmore like, do you know what
- 16:21Speaker 1: I mean? That's that's what makes me feel like if
- 16:24Speaker 1: I were outside the stadium and I was seeing that,
- 16:26Speaker 1: I'd be like, yes, Parker, because he big play Parker.
- 16:31Speaker 1: You know that's how it feels. What would you say.
- 16:33Speaker 2: Would I'd do exactly the same as you, Trevor, Josh
- 16:37Speaker 2: Hans Allen. The third is the difficult spot, tormber Tea
- 16:44Speaker 2: between Travis Hunter and Parker Washington probably would go with
- 16:49Speaker 2: Travis Hunter.
- 16:51Speaker 1: I get it.
- 16:52Speaker 2: I get it.
- 16:53Speaker 1: There's a lot of there's a lot of excitement still
- 16:55Speaker 1: about him.
- 16:56Speaker 2: I've got that. Yeah, I'm kind of got offensive player,
- 16:59Speaker 2: defensive player, offensive and defensive player.
- 17:05Speaker 3: So it's even.
- 17:06Speaker 1: So what you're saying is is you is you're paying
- 17:09Speaker 1: for three player, three positions, but you're getting four, so
- 17:13Speaker 1: you might as well just put him on the poster.
- 17:15Speaker 2: And I was, I'm really excited about Travis Hunter this year.
- 17:19Speaker 2: I feel like I listened to an interview it was, ah,
- 17:22Speaker 2: listen to the There was an interview on the Jags
- 17:26Speaker 2: YouTube channel. I'll try and find it and send it
- 17:29Speaker 2: to you. It is Gladstone talking about this where I
- 17:32Speaker 2: think he was talking about how he's building the team
- 17:35Speaker 2: and it was after the draft and he kind of
- 17:36Speaker 2: got asked, Okay, is is Travis playing two way? And
- 17:40Speaker 2: he said he still wants to play to he still
- 17:42Speaker 2: wants some two way.
- 17:43Speaker 1: There's been a lot of talk about how like apparently
- 17:47Speaker 1: he's only going to be playing defense, and then obviously,
- 17:50Speaker 1: as you say, there's been conversations exactly like that's not
- 17:56Speaker 1: what's going to happen. I would like him to play
- 17:59Speaker 1: both becau that's what he's been brought in to do,
- 18:01Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? And then I'll leave
- 18:02Speaker 1: up to the coaches aside what that means. But at
- 18:05Speaker 1: the very least, I would like to see him play defense,
- 18:08Speaker 1: maybe like probably first string defense, and then be in
- 18:12Speaker 1: certain plays for the offense. That's at the very least, right, Yeah, yeah,
- 18:17Speaker 1: certain packages in the offense. And the other thing as
- 18:20Speaker 1: well is it's a real shame that he got injured
- 18:23Speaker 1: when he did, because I do felt like he was
- 18:25Speaker 1: getting that relationship and that rapport with Trevor there, you know,
- 18:29Speaker 1: and that's it's a it's a bit of a shame
- 18:31Speaker 1: that it happened. Then that what it does mean is
- 18:34Speaker 1: that you've got a full off season, a full preseason
- 18:38Speaker 1: as well to actually recreate that magic.
- 18:41Speaker 2: I feel like it opened up Parker more, Kobi Meyers
- 18:45Speaker 2: coming in as well. Obviously you don't want anyone injured, but.
- 18:50Speaker 1: That's another idea, another point of like he could be
- 18:54Speaker 1: he could be that third person.
- 18:56Speaker 2: Brian Thomas, I'm fascinated with fascinat on. I was half
- 19:01Speaker 2: expecting a trade, I'll be honest, and I saw some
- 19:05Speaker 2: rumors kind of going I was kind of half expecting,
- 19:08Speaker 2: and I would imagine I really like Brian Thomas. I
- 19:12Speaker 2: feel like last year was a I feel like I
- 19:14Speaker 2: kind of got in his own head. He's a professional athlete.
- 19:17Speaker 2: Obviously I'm not, but I for what I think, for
- 19:19Speaker 2: whatever it's worth, I think he got into his own
- 19:22Speaker 2: head a bit kind of felt that. But I think
- 19:25Speaker 2: this year is a guy It sounds mental saying it's
- 19:28Speaker 2: a career year, but kind of slightly is you know,
- 19:33Speaker 2: rookie year you kill come back. Everyone's expecting it doesn't,
- 19:37Speaker 2: let's be real, doesn't. And I think he would say
- 19:39Speaker 2: that doesn't didn't really work last year. This year it's like,
- 19:43Speaker 2: a I got to prove who I am. I got
- 19:45Speaker 2: to prove why I should be on that third because
- 19:47Speaker 2: there's a chance that we have this conversation this time
- 19:49Speaker 2: next year and we go that's crazy. Do you remember
- 19:51Speaker 2: we were fighting between Parker Washington and Travis Hunter to
- 19:54Speaker 2: be that third player. Well, it's pretty clear it was
- 19:57Speaker 2: always meant to be Brian Thomas Jr.
- 20:00Speaker 1: The most important thing for me is that he has
- 20:01Speaker 1: proven that he has got the talent and he is
- 20:05Speaker 1: he has He's proven that he can get that production.
- 20:09Speaker 1: So it's not as if you draft a player in
- 20:10Speaker 1: the first round and you're in your third year and
- 20:12Speaker 1: you're like, we have seen nothing like it's actually the
- 20:15Speaker 1: opposite of that. We have seen exactly what we want
- 20:18Speaker 1: from Brian Thomas Jr. And now all we just need
- 20:21Speaker 1: to do is we just need to see it again.
- 20:23Speaker 2: That's it. And clearly, look he's still I don't want
- 20:26Speaker 2: him to be traded. I love betj. I think he's
- 20:28Speaker 2: a beast, and I think what will happen is we
- 20:31Speaker 2: trade him. And that's the worry I think, you know,
- 20:34Speaker 2: I feel like we're in that you trade him and
- 20:36Speaker 2: he has a career, like he just turns into a
- 20:39Speaker 2: stud again. It's like you can't forgive yourself for trading
- 20:43Speaker 2: him when you didn't really need to.
- 20:45Speaker 1: J Bell is going to be joining Les in just
- 20:47Speaker 1: a second year. He may or may not have played
- 20:50Speaker 1: for the Houston Texans, which means that we are going
- 20:53Speaker 1: to be able to get his take on not only
- 20:56Speaker 1: the game itself, where his loyalties lie. I can picture.
- 21:00Speaker 2: Already m j D from last year. I'm broadcasting for
- 21:04Speaker 2: the Rams. I love, I love here he is.
- 21:09Speaker 1: We were just talking j Bell about how I'm assuming
- 21:13Speaker 1: that for the Texans Jags game, you're going to be
- 21:17Speaker 1: there on the sideline with a half and half scarf.
- 21:20Speaker 3: Oh no, I'm full. I'm fully texting in.
- 21:22Speaker 2: Sorry fellas, he's change, he doesn't care, He's just going.
- 21:29Speaker 4: No, I'm gonna keep it real. I'm gonna rule for Trevor,
- 21:32Speaker 4: for ball out. I want Trevor to do his thing.
- 21:34Speaker 4: But ye know it's gonna be tough. I'm invested too
- 21:38Speaker 4: much in Jacksonville right now. This is this is tragic.
- 21:40Speaker 1: So when you speak to your best friend, Trevor Lawrence
- 21:43Speaker 1: before the game, because we know that you love him
- 21:46Speaker 1: so much, you love each other, you love each other.
- 21:49Speaker 3: It's real.
- 21:51Speaker 1: Are you going to be saying best of luck? But
- 21:54Speaker 1: also you're going to be thinking but not really.
- 21:57Speaker 3: I'm musa say, listen, man, I need you to do
- 21:59Speaker 3: your thing.
- 22:00Speaker 4: I need you to straight ball out man, you know,
- 22:03Speaker 4: do it for you, do it for the fan do
- 22:05Speaker 4: it for us.
- 22:06Speaker 3: It's gonna be all that.
- 22:07Speaker 5: Man.
- 22:08Speaker 3: I want him to play well.
- 22:10Speaker 4: But in reality, I want both these quarterbacks to play
- 22:12Speaker 4: well because that means we've got a good game.
- 22:14Speaker 3: It's gonna be tough. Man. I'm conflicted. Man, I don't
- 22:16Speaker 3: even want to talk about this. I would rather not
- 22:19Speaker 3: talk about this.
- 22:20Speaker 4: Then we can, we can we move on to another stuff.
- 22:23Speaker 2: But I was I was saying to Jay, I'm not
- 22:27Speaker 2: sure if you saw Trevor's hack cup.
- 22:31Speaker 4: Yeah, he was tripping. I'm glad that didn't happen. I
- 22:34Speaker 4: was like, you gonna cut it like that?
- 22:35Speaker 3: Bro, Man, we gotta what.
- 22:39Speaker 1: We spent about half an hour saying he needs his
- 22:42Speaker 1: skin fade. I don't know what he's doing.
- 22:44Speaker 2: So I'm saying, Jay, but we need we need to
- 22:46Speaker 2: take him to a barbershop.
- 22:48Speaker 5: We need.
- 22:49Speaker 2: I'm thinking when he comes over, we take him to
- 22:52Speaker 2: a barbershop. I know a Barbara in Plumpstead. I'm thinking
- 22:55Speaker 2: the team might not might not like him going to Plumpstead,
- 22:58Speaker 2: but so we can get some security, I think we
- 23:00Speaker 2: can take him to a to a bablah blah blah
- 23:03Speaker 2: barber shop. Okay, have a little skim fade. Yeah, and
- 23:07Speaker 2: we can get it done properly.
- 23:09Speaker 4: Listen, if we do that and he goes out and balls,
- 23:12Speaker 4: everybody will love us. Everybody we we But if he doesn't,
- 23:16Speaker 4: we can't go outside.
- 23:19Speaker 3: If he doesn't, there a lot of pressure on us. Okay,
- 23:23Speaker 3: if he doesn't.
- 23:24Speaker 1: Jason, you're the subject to the thirty thirty ESPN documentary
- 23:30Speaker 1: that you.
- 23:31Speaker 4: Cool the heck, this is what it all happened, and
- 23:34Speaker 4: these are the villains.
- 23:35Speaker 3: And then this is all.
- 23:37Speaker 1: Sound isn't it is that?
- 23:39Speaker 2: It sound game, the flu game.
- 23:41Speaker 3: Don't ever cut, don't cut. Don't cut your hair, bro,
- 23:43Speaker 3: don't cut your hair. Don't don't start doing stuff.
- 23:48Speaker 4: Don't do anything new, like let's let's stick, you know,
- 23:51Speaker 4: work on your technique. We we're cool with that. But
- 23:54Speaker 4: all the other stuff, man, stick to your usual.
- 23:56Speaker 1: Man, you say you don't want to talk about it,
- 23:58Speaker 1: but give me your initial reaction. Then, and you found
- 24:00Speaker 1: out that the Texans were going to be the opponent
- 24:03Speaker 1: for the Jacks at Wembley.
- 24:05Speaker 3: Obviously, I mean super excited.
- 24:07Speaker 4: First of all, I always talk about those two teams
- 24:10Speaker 4: going at it and how physical it is, how much
- 24:13Speaker 4: they hate each other.
- 24:15Speaker 3: Now we get to see that and I'm gonna enjoy that.
- 24:17Speaker 3: The fans are going to enjoy that.
- 24:19Speaker 4: But when you look at it from a schematics standpoint,
- 24:22Speaker 4: like talking about these quarterbacks, you see what's happening over
- 24:27Speaker 4: there in Houston and their quarterback because you don't hear
- 24:31Speaker 4: about them, there's nothing. He's in the lab right now
- 24:34Speaker 4: because of the season he had last year. So both
- 24:37Speaker 4: these quarterbacks should be playing well. And I'm excited to
- 24:40Speaker 4: see that. In this defense. Man, if TREVORL. Lawrence stands
- 24:43Speaker 4: up to this defense and balls out, there's nothing stopping
- 24:46Speaker 4: them all year.
- 24:47Speaker 2: Wow in what sense, as in, if you can take
- 24:51Speaker 2: on that defense, then there's not many teams that will
- 24:54Speaker 2: apply that sort of pressure. It's one of those Okay.
- 24:58Speaker 4: It's one of those things where you get there not
- 25:01Speaker 4: only you're gonna have to deal with the pressure, knowing
- 25:04Speaker 4: to get the ball out. They play tight covers on
- 25:06Speaker 4: the back end, they're physical, they're fast, all of that.
- 25:10Speaker 4: You can handle that. Then each one of your opponents
- 25:13Speaker 4: you go up to next you're like, I've seen it
- 25:16Speaker 4: all and they have.
- 25:18Speaker 3: But once again, it's what you are.
- 25:19Speaker 4: This year, and we know this is one of the
- 25:21Speaker 4: top three defenses in the NFL with the Houston Texans.
- 25:26Speaker 2: Jay bo I was thinking, like I already know the
- 25:30Speaker 2: Eagles coming over, and we can talk about that game
- 25:33Speaker 2: as well. The Eagles coming over, They're everywhere. You just
- 25:36Speaker 2: gotta see greed everywhere. Texans funds, they travel well, you
- 25:41Speaker 2: think it's gonna be how do you see the split?
- 25:44Speaker 3: I'm interested to see.
- 25:46Speaker 4: Them travel because yeah, I think they will travel well
- 25:49Speaker 4: because Texas Texan fans are gonna want to get out
- 25:52Speaker 4: of Texas.
- 25:52Speaker 3: This is cool, this is an experience.
- 25:54Speaker 4: We have to remember that when we look at these crowds,
- 25:57Speaker 4: like they checked us off on the calendar, and they're like,
- 26:00Speaker 4: I get to go see my I get to go visit.
- 26:01Speaker 3: London and see my team. Monumental very important.
- 26:05Speaker 1: For that game the Eagles. The details for the tickets
- 26:09Speaker 1: for that one on the NFL website right now. And
- 26:11Speaker 1: I think that that's going to be a really fun one.
- 26:14Speaker 1: I mean, like my reaction, your initial reaction to that one,
- 26:16Speaker 1: Jay Bell as well. I imagining that it's just like
- 26:18Speaker 1: these are going to be two tough games, but mostly
- 26:22Speaker 1: two fun games. I mean that's what I kind of
- 26:24Speaker 1: look at when these games come over, Like you can
- 26:27Speaker 1: look at the Is it going to be hard? Is
- 26:29Speaker 1: it going to be easy? Blah blah blah. Is it
- 26:31Speaker 1: going to be fun to watch? I think it's fun
- 26:33Speaker 1: to be fun to watch.
- 26:34Speaker 3: It's good.
- 26:34Speaker 4: And I like that you said that because they're going
- 26:36Speaker 4: to be fun to watch, because they've got great players,
- 26:38Speaker 4: exciting players, the guys we highlight on.
- 26:41Speaker 3: The video games.
- 26:42Speaker 4: I mean, who doesn't want to see exactly what this
- 26:45Speaker 4: team can do. I mean they were just they just
- 26:46Speaker 4: want a Super Bowl a little while ago, and now
- 26:50Speaker 4: you see Hurts and Sakwon Barkley. What can they do
- 26:53Speaker 4: with this new offense? Persons under a lot of pressure
- 26:56Speaker 4: this offseason. The news is out he didn't like so
- 27:00Speaker 4: and things, he didn't like to play.
- 27:01Speaker 3: A certain way. How does that look?
- 27:03Speaker 4: And the one thing about all these games is we
- 27:05Speaker 4: love storylines. We love the characters, so we understand who's
- 27:08Speaker 4: got the pressure on them, and we get to see
- 27:10Speaker 4: that team and all their glory.
- 27:12Speaker 3: I hate Eagles fans by the way they are. They're
- 27:15Speaker 3: terrible people. They are oh my god, and cows, Oh
- 27:21Speaker 3: my gosh. He's Eagles fans. Man.
- 27:23Speaker 4: Come on, come on down, man. The blue Birds are out.
- 27:26Speaker 4: But yeah, it's gonna be exciting to see. But like
- 27:28Speaker 4: I said, so many storylines, Uh, dominant players, It's going
- 27:32Speaker 4: to be great, great games coming to town.
- 27:35Speaker 2: Can I add a storyline which I mean so far
- 27:40Speaker 2: that we've been doing a podcast, my predictions on trades
- 27:43Speaker 2: except you have.
- 27:43Speaker 3: Been terrible but hate j Brown yep.
- 27:51Speaker 2: To the Jags. Oh storyline, aj Brown to the Jugs.
- 27:58Speaker 2: We were talking earlier about kind of who we see
- 28:01Speaker 2: is that third person on the Jacks in terms of
- 28:04Speaker 2: when you go past the stadium, you see Trevor front
- 28:06Speaker 2: and center, you see Josh heinz Allen, and then you
- 28:09Speaker 2: kind of have a mix of Travis, you have a
- 28:11Speaker 2: mix of Puck of Washington. You see Brian Thomas Jr.
- 28:16Speaker 2: And we were like that Sutch but still kind of like,
- 28:19Speaker 2: you know, even if you have Jakobe, you kind of
- 28:22Speaker 2: like that person who's like, I'm that guy you just
- 28:25Speaker 2: sold it.
- 28:25Speaker 6: Tell me right now, you just saw me why we
- 28:28Speaker 6: can't get him? You just sold to tell me why
- 28:30Speaker 6: we can get him. You have an ex receiver, you
- 28:33Speaker 6: got a slot guy. You got a guy that can
- 28:36Speaker 6: do all the work against zone. I mean, where's he
- 28:38Speaker 6: gonna fit? And you're gonna pay all that money, like
- 28:41Speaker 6: I don't know. Okay, yes, would you like to trade
- 28:43Speaker 6: him out for Brian Thomas Jr. I can take that.
- 28:45Speaker 4: Argument all day long because he's a boundary X guy
- 28:49Speaker 4: go down the field vertically.
- 28:50Speaker 3: Yes, but it just doesn't fit.
- 28:52Speaker 4: Man. Do you want any of that in the room
- 28:54Speaker 4: with Trevor right now? I mean, just you know, I
- 28:59Speaker 4: like what we have over there. Parker Washington coming on
- 29:03Speaker 4: has put Travis Hunter at coinast, so let's just start there.
- 29:08Speaker 4: Put that, put Travis at corner. It's like, you focus
- 29:11Speaker 4: on that young blood. We're gonna let this guy take
- 29:14Speaker 4: over and make it happen. It's because of the way
- 29:16Speaker 4: he played this year, and you don't have a number
- 29:18Speaker 4: three receiver and you got Travis on the other side.
- 29:20Speaker 4: You got to play him at receiver because he's your
- 29:22Speaker 4: best number three. But with Parker playing the way he is,
- 29:25Speaker 4: but he can be a true number one.
- 29:26Speaker 3: He's taken over games. How many reps do you got?
- 29:30Speaker 4: So you say, all right, now, you take those skills
- 29:32Speaker 4: and put them on defense.
- 29:33Speaker 3: Where we need you.
- 29:34Speaker 4: And and yeah, what helps is if you go in
- 29:37Speaker 4: the game and you can't suit up as many receivers
- 29:40Speaker 4: because there's some injuries where you can move him around.
- 29:43Speaker 4: That is Travis and his flexibility allows you a depth
- 29:46Speaker 4: chart to have flexibility.
- 29:47Speaker 3: Now that's really important. People don't talk about that.
- 29:51Speaker 4: But you only got so many guys you can sit up,
- 29:53Speaker 4: say you got to sit you got to bring up
- 29:55Speaker 4: an extra lineman. Well, Travis does so much for you
- 29:58Speaker 4: it allows you to do that. So that case, he
- 30:00Speaker 4: is definitely worth it as being a dual threat because
- 30:03Speaker 4: of what he can do for you on game day.
- 30:05Speaker 1: When it comes to these games in October, JBO, tell
- 30:09Speaker 1: me the things that excite you the most, the things
- 30:12Speaker 1: that will be maybe like Trevor aside, because I don't
- 30:15Speaker 1: want you to get into like a love letter about Trevor.
- 30:17Speaker 1: I know it doesn't take much, but you know, apart
- 30:21Speaker 1: from Trevor, what gets you excited and makes you think.
- 30:25Speaker 1: We get to see this in a few months time.
- 30:28Speaker 4: Quarterbacks and good teams simple, we get to see it all.
- 30:32Speaker 4: We get to see three quarterbacks who have unique skill
- 30:34Speaker 4: sets we always want to see that. We get to
- 30:36Speaker 4: see dominant defenses right three defenses that can step up
- 30:40Speaker 4: to the challenge.
- 30:42Speaker 3: This is what we talk about.
- 30:43Speaker 4: There's teams right now are built in certain kind of ways.
- 30:46Speaker 4: I believe a lot of times in the AFC it's
- 30:49Speaker 4: quarterback driven.
- 30:50Speaker 3: The NFC has been more of complete teams.
- 30:53Speaker 4: But when you look at all these teams, even though
- 30:55Speaker 4: two are in AFC.
- 30:56Speaker 3: They are complete teams.
- 30:58Speaker 4: They are complete teams, and these this is what's gonna
- 31:02Speaker 4: get you into the later rounds. This is what's gonna
- 31:05Speaker 4: give you success in the playoffs. How do they look
- 31:07Speaker 4: this early in the season, matched up against each other,
- 31:11Speaker 4: in this situation where your quarterback has to shine, especially
- 31:14Speaker 4: against defenses that can make you pay if you make mistakes.
- 31:18Speaker 3: It's gonna be great football because of that. Very competitive
- 31:21Speaker 3: a divisional game as well.
- 31:23Speaker 1: I mean like, this is a game that I don't
- 31:25Speaker 1: want to make you know, overege or anything, but these
- 31:29Speaker 1: are the games that make massive difference months down the
- 31:32Speaker 1: line as well.
- 31:33Speaker 3: Jay, have you ever been in a bar fight?
- 31:34Speaker 4: Don't answer that, because I have, and it is nasty,
- 31:37Speaker 4: it is aggressive, and you don't know what's happening.
- 31:40Speaker 3: You gotta protect every part of your body.
- 31:43Speaker 4: And that's exactly what you have to do in these
- 31:46Speaker 4: rivalry games because they are out to get you. I'm
- 31:49Speaker 4: telling you, they're gonna get on that field and nobody's
- 31:52Speaker 4: gonna care about anything else except beating and pounding their opponent.
- 31:56Speaker 4: That's how Jacksonville and the Texans go at it every
- 32:00Speaker 4: every single time, and I love it.
- 32:02Speaker 2: Sometimes sometimes too far. Hey man, you gotta do adnamt
- 32:06Speaker 2: got disagree with that. Do you remember that hit from
- 32:09Speaker 2: Do you remember that hit from his ease?
- 32:12Speaker 3: Yeah? You don't want that. You don't want that.
- 32:16Speaker 2: This is where I feel like the rivalry is is
- 32:19Speaker 2: real because that like that hit you you want to
- 32:23Speaker 2: get your TV screen. And just even though he would
- 32:26Speaker 2: beat the heck out of me, I know he would,
- 32:29Speaker 2: I want to You just want to jump in there
- 32:31Speaker 2: and do something. I mean, like, I know that's going
- 32:33Speaker 2: to be in that as soon as you see that schedule.
- 32:35Speaker 2: Ah yeah, you in London.
- 32:38Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a if you have a fast defense, you
- 32:40Speaker 4: got a fast middle linebacker. Let's just start there. He's
- 32:43Speaker 4: closing up all that space, all those windows. And if
- 32:46Speaker 4: you want to take off and run, I'm gonna make
- 32:48Speaker 4: you get down real quick or think about it. Our
- 32:50Speaker 4: second guest, guess yourself. And that's the game we're playing. Yes,
- 32:53Speaker 4: it's a late hit. Shouldn't happen. You gotta protect your
- 32:55Speaker 4: brother on the field, no doubt. When we're on defense,
- 32:59Speaker 4: we're trying to tell that quarter back, don't you go
- 33:01Speaker 4: for that extra yard? Do not do it, get down,
- 33:05Speaker 4: play to the rules and protect yourself.
- 33:07Speaker 3: J Bell.
- 33:07Speaker 1: Yes, we were speaking earlier about that third person that
- 33:13Speaker 1: we see as like the mount Rushmore of the twenty
- 33:16Speaker 1: twenty six Jag season. Oh, Trevor would be one. I
- 33:20Speaker 1: think that's fair to say. Who else would the other two?
- 33:23Speaker 3: I mean, I roll with Josh Haines Allen.
- 33:26Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, cool, but we're all in agreement. But who's
- 33:30Speaker 1: the third one? Who's your third?
- 33:36Speaker 3: Okay?
- 33:38Speaker 1: Me and j Bell like this. Not only would we
- 33:41Speaker 1: have each other in our bar fights, would be would
- 33:43Speaker 1: be like brothers in a bar fight, but we've got
- 33:45Speaker 1: the same Mount Rushmore try up trifecta.
- 33:49Speaker 4: I wonder if you picked him the way the reason
- 33:51Speaker 4: I did because I had to think about it.
- 33:53Speaker 3: But what he gives me on.
- 33:54Speaker 4: Special teams, Yeah, this guy he can impact a game
- 33:58Speaker 4: on two different levels. We can get him the ball
- 34:01Speaker 4: in space and my quarterback trust him. So he's gonna
- 34:05Speaker 4: give volume problem, He's gonna get volume targets.
- 34:08Speaker 1: I picked him because he makes me smile, so I
- 34:10Speaker 1: think that you thought about it a little bit more.
- 34:12Speaker 3: J Yeah, I'm appreciate. It's the same thing. It's the
- 34:15Speaker 3: same smile, it's steel the same way. Okay, all right.
