Speaker 1: Hour on this Tuesday, it's own five logs. It's twenty
1:21
Speaker 1: in a row logs. That's the third longest losing skin
1:25
Speaker 1: in league history. Unfortunately, that enough that, uh, losing on
1:29
Speaker 1: all that front. But then I don't even get the open.
1:32
Speaker 1: So I mean, I'm oh, for one, on the show,
1:34
Speaker 1: you were the same way. You didn't get totally over
1:36
Speaker 1: my head. Joe. We're gonna give you an opportunity to
1:39
Speaker 1: try to explain this, but I don't know if he
1:40
Speaker 1: even wants it. Right now. It's Eugene Levy's son Dan.
1:46
Speaker 1: Who is who? You don't who Eugene Levy? S out?
1:51
Speaker 1: What year is this talking about? How do you guys
1:55
Speaker 1: not know who Eugene lev is? Uh, we'll tell me
1:59
Speaker 1: who he is and I'll say the dad in American Pie. Okay.
2:05
Speaker 1: And if you said the dad in American Pie'd be like, Okay,
2:07
Speaker 1: I know the guy. His son isn't a show name
2:13
Speaker 1: blank Creek got it, Okay, But he's in every commercial
2:17
Speaker 1: that's out there now, Okay, you don't watch much? Tell no,
2:21
Speaker 1: I don't know. Sorry, I'm in radio. This is a
2:25
Speaker 1: radio program, Radio Land. I needed a haircut. I appreciate that, Joe.
2:30
Speaker 1: So let's get to football, shall we. Um. Oh, we
2:34
Speaker 1: could continue talking about that if you want, the way
2:36
Speaker 1: things have gone the last couple of weeks around here,
2:38
Speaker 1: But I thought we were going to talk about the
2:40
Speaker 1: other Creek, the one year up sometimes. Yeah, well that's
2:42
Speaker 1: the show's name, is that? So hey? You know, didn't
2:47
Speaker 1: go well at all last week. Defensively, communication issues. Offensively
2:51
Speaker 1: had some moments, but you know, it was a mixed
2:54
Speaker 1: bag of the goal line situation. They had a throwing touchdown,
2:57
Speaker 1: a quarterback sneak, they were that fourth and three inches
3:00
Speaker 1: to go that everybody has talked about all that happened
3:03
Speaker 1: last week, and you know, it's just been a bad start. Yeah,
3:07
Speaker 1: bad start. Start. There's there's I mean, And I think
3:11
Speaker 1: that's the one thing that you know, as you start
3:13
Speaker 1: to progress through the season, you'd like to start to
3:15
Speaker 1: get certain questions answered. I mean, that's you know, part
3:18
Speaker 1: of improving as a football team. You know, you get better. Okay,
3:21
Speaker 1: we're working on this part of it. And there are
3:24
Speaker 1: some things that I think are improving and things that
3:27
Speaker 1: are getting answered. For example, the tight end situation with
3:30
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, I think it's much improved from where we
3:33
Speaker 1: were at all the way back in the all season.
3:36
Speaker 1: We're going, holy cow, they couldn't find somebody to to
3:40
Speaker 1: get better at that position. But I think the combination
3:43
Speaker 1: of the guys that they have now, I think it's good.
3:46
Speaker 1: But the turnovers continue on. Uh, there's questions about personnel adjustments,
3:52
Speaker 1: there's questions about play calling, there's questions about the communication
3:58
Speaker 1: level on the defense. The second half performance still kind
4:03
Speaker 1: of is lingering as a big question. That to the
4:06
Speaker 1: point where your turnover differential in the third quarters minus
4:09
Speaker 1: forty two, I mean, that's that's a staggering number. I mean,
4:12
Speaker 1: so a lot of these things you want to start
4:15
Speaker 1: to see minimized and disappear. And I think that's one
4:19
Speaker 1: of the things that makes you go, okay, you want
4:22
Speaker 1: to may really do a deep evaluation of this and say, okay,
4:26
Speaker 1: are are things going the way we want them to go?
4:29
Speaker 1: And I think that Urban Meyers got his handsful right now.
4:31
Speaker 1: A lot of questions. You mentioned the word question about
4:34
Speaker 1: seven times there. That's never good with that many questions. Well, no,
4:38
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's my point is that you know
4:40
Speaker 1: and look at your young team and you're rebuilding the organization,
4:44
Speaker 1: and you've really don't have a whole lot of draft
4:47
Speaker 1: equity helping you along. That's the reality, and that's difficult
4:52
Speaker 1: to overcome because look, scheme is great coaching matters. Players
4:58
Speaker 1: matter the most, and when you've got great players, so
5:01
Speaker 1: you can win a lot of football games. When you
5:03
Speaker 1: don't have great players, it's hard to win. Let's hear
5:05
Speaker 1: from a guy that we really think it could be
5:08
Speaker 1: a great player. He's already on his way. It's quarterback
5:11
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. After the game on Sunday. It's not gone
5:16
Speaker 1: well so far. Obviously he knows that, he's the first
5:18
Speaker 1: to admit it, but he does know it's a long
5:20
Speaker 1: season ahead. I can't get desperate, you know, you gotta
5:25
Speaker 1: you gotta just keep going to work, and um, we're
5:28
Speaker 1: gonna win some games. We're gonna turn it around. And
5:30
Speaker 1: you know, we all thought today it was the day
5:32
Speaker 1: we're gonna get that first to win, and it wasn't.
5:34
Speaker 1: You know, we didn't execute enough down the stretch. But um,
5:37
Speaker 1: we're gonna figure it out and we're gonna turn this
5:39
Speaker 1: thing around. It's gonna be it's gonna be a lot
5:41
Speaker 1: of fun when we do. But yeah. I mean the
5:43
Speaker 1: locker room, we want to win. All the guys. We've
5:46
Speaker 1: got so many hard workers, and everyone's so invested. You know,
5:50
Speaker 1: it's not it's not a team where you've got guys
5:52
Speaker 1: that aren't really committed or don't care. I mean everyone,
5:54
Speaker 1: everyone's all in. So just always feels like he's he's
5:59
Speaker 1: got an ant he he's got the answer, he's got
6:01
Speaker 1: the right answer, how you want to go to work with.
6:04
Speaker 1: He's very mature, and I think when you it's easy
6:09
Speaker 1: to be a winner. You know, it's easy to be
6:12
Speaker 1: a front runner, but it's always more difficult to handle
6:16
Speaker 1: in times of difficulty, in times of stress. And I
6:20
Speaker 1: think he's handled himself marvelously. And look, nobody you don't
6:23
Speaker 1: want to have a good loser. And you can tell
6:27
Speaker 1: that it bothers him and it matters to him, and
6:30
Speaker 1: he's working incredibly hard. But he's got almost a level
6:34
Speaker 1: of wisdom that's beyond his years, you know what I mean.
6:36
Speaker 1: When I was twenty two, man I had I would
6:39
Speaker 1: have had zero chance of having the composure that he has.
6:45
Speaker 1: And I think that this is part of the reason
6:47
Speaker 1: why many people viewed him as a generational prospect and
6:52
Speaker 1: one of the reasons why he's probably been so incredibly
6:55
Speaker 1: successful throughout his entire life, going all the way back
6:59
Speaker 1: to literally I guess so I feel really good about him.
7:04
Speaker 1: And because you've heard so many different times and through
7:09
Speaker 1: the years about high draft pick quarterbacks and in the
7:13
Speaker 1: prospect of losing them, you know what I mean by that,
7:17
Speaker 1: wasting the opportunity with this. What I mean by that
7:20
Speaker 1: is that a lot of teams have there's different philosophies
7:24
Speaker 1: on a young player. Do you play him right away,
7:26
Speaker 1: do you let him sit and learn? And many people
7:29
Speaker 1: say that you can ruin a young quarterback if he
7:31
Speaker 1: ends up not having any success early on, and and
7:34
Speaker 1: all he does is get beat up physically and mentally
7:36
Speaker 1: in every other way. This young man is clearly prepared
7:40
Speaker 1: to handle this from from the get go, and I
7:43
Speaker 1: think that makes them incredibly special as a as a player,
7:48
Speaker 1: because it takes a certain psychology, psychiatric way to handle that.
7:55
Speaker 1: I mean it. I mean, you're the face of the
7:57
Speaker 1: franchise and you're trying to turn things around, and you're
7:59
Speaker 1: deal him with something that you've never had to deal with.
8:01
Speaker 1: But he's just handling incredibly well. And the best part
8:04
Speaker 1: that I love about him is that sometimes with young quarterbacks,
8:08
Speaker 1: you see how it affects him and that all of
8:10
Speaker 1: a sudden they take almost a step back sometimes because
8:15
Speaker 1: they have some failures and then they lack confidence and
8:18
Speaker 1: they're not sure, and then they start maybe trying it
8:21
Speaker 1: a different way, maybe they start pressing, and then you
8:26
Speaker 1: don't see any of that with him. He's still the
8:29
Speaker 1: same calm quarterback in the pocket. The way his body
8:34
Speaker 1: works and the game is still really strong. You know,
8:37
Speaker 1: the more experience he gets and the better they get
8:39
Speaker 1: around him, the better he's gonna be. And I have
8:43
Speaker 1: nothing but confidence that this is a future star in
8:47
Speaker 1: the making. Just go play and be patient with him,
8:50
Speaker 1: and continue week to week to see some improvement here
8:53
Speaker 1: there and step up the ladder it. Just make sure
8:56
Speaker 1: that you do the right things around him, and because
8:59
Speaker 1: if you don't, then it's hard for anybody to have success.
9:02
Speaker 1: You know, you've got to have the pieces in place.
9:06
Speaker 1: One of those pieces and some of those pieces around
9:09
Speaker 1: him have changed since the season has started. Of course,
9:12
Speaker 1: the offensive line has a couple of injuries. Now, there's
9:14
Speaker 1: a big injury wide receiver with DJ Chark down for
9:18
Speaker 1: a while, so some new faces coming in. One of
9:20
Speaker 1: those two faces is tight end Dan Arnold, who spoke
9:23
Speaker 1: with the media today. He had six catches in last
9:26
Speaker 1: week's game, his second game with the team. He's been
9:28
Speaker 1: around the block of time or two at least for
9:30
Speaker 1: a few years of the NFL, and it feels like
9:32
Speaker 1: he can help a young quarterback settle in. It's a
9:36
Speaker 1: good week of practice, and that's that's kind of what
9:38
Speaker 1: gives you the confidence more than anything to be able
9:40
Speaker 1: to do that. UM, and I think having a little
9:43
Speaker 1: bit longer time just to kind of um work with
9:46
Speaker 1: you know, the tight end coach, everybody with the offensive
9:49
Speaker 1: coordinators and UM and a lot of you know, the
9:52
Speaker 1: Trevor as well, just kind of iron out details of like, Okay,
9:55
Speaker 1: this is what you're thinking on this route or um,
9:58
Speaker 1: you know, this is where you're gonna expect. Just kinda
10:01
Speaker 1: there's a little nuances that are different with each offense,
10:03
Speaker 1: and uh, just trying to get him as comfortable as possible,
10:06
Speaker 1: because you know, this is his first year in this
10:09
Speaker 1: in this craziness of the NFL, and there's a lot
10:13
Speaker 1: that goes into it. And something I noticed and you know,
10:15
Speaker 1: trying to give him pointers and every everything that I
10:17
Speaker 1: can as well, Um, stuff I picked up from other
10:20
Speaker 1: quarterbacks that I've been with that have been successful, you know. Um,
10:24
Speaker 1: but just having that good week of practice, I think
10:27
Speaker 1: more than anything helps. A lot of that stuff is
10:30
Speaker 1: things you would think of doing in training camp, you know,
10:33
Speaker 1: offseason program. Figuring that out. He wasn't around here though,
10:36
Speaker 1: of course he was in Carolina, got traded in a
10:38
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, and and here you are. And
10:41
Speaker 1: you know, he's been around since he was with the
10:43
Speaker 1: Saints his first here in his career, so working with
10:46
Speaker 1: some big time names there of course Arizona part of
10:50
Speaker 1: nineteen and New Orleans and then Arizona that was his
10:54
Speaker 1: best campaign as a tight end, and then started with
10:55
Speaker 1: Carolina this year in three games here for the Panthers
10:58
Speaker 1: before we're coming over here. So he's as he said,
11:01
Speaker 1: you see a few different quarterbacks, different ways to go
11:04
Speaker 1: about it, a lot of success Drew Breezes in New
11:06
Speaker 1: Orleans at that point Camary's first year in I mean
11:09
Speaker 1: that's therese are some some guys who can do it
11:12
Speaker 1: at a high level. First of all, the school that
11:14
Speaker 1: he came from Wisconsin, Platteville, helped me out with that.
11:18
Speaker 1: It's in Wisconsin, like it's in the town of dub
11:21
Speaker 1: Is is big time college football. It's Division three. It's
11:25
Speaker 1: Division three. Okay, So he comes from a small school.
11:28
Speaker 1: He bounces around a little bit. He's learning the process.
11:31
Speaker 1: And from what I understand, he was a hurdler at
11:35
Speaker 1: some point that has passed. I mean, so he's got
11:38
Speaker 1: some athleticism to him obviously, and uh, from the first
11:43
Speaker 1: time he stepped on the field in Cincinnati, he made
11:46
Speaker 1: you take notice because he has a speed and a
11:51
Speaker 1: suddenness about him that is just different than most of
11:54
Speaker 1: the tight ends the Jaguars have had recently. And that's
11:57
Speaker 1: impressive to go from a couple of catches and the
12:00
Speaker 1: Cincinnati game in a matter of a couple of days
12:02
Speaker 1: to what is it, maybe uh, a week and a
12:06
Speaker 1: half later, all of a sudden, he ends up with
12:10
Speaker 1: what he had like five or six catches in this
12:12
Speaker 1: past game. Six catches in a game. Credit to him
12:17
Speaker 1: to learning the system so quickly. And then also Tyler Bowen,
12:20
Speaker 1: his tight ends coach, who I'm sure it worked tirelessly
12:23
Speaker 1: with him at teaching him and I like him. I
12:27
Speaker 1: mean I said this earlier today. I'm gonna say it again,
12:32
Speaker 1: if you traded him for c J. Henderson straight up
12:35
Speaker 1: right now, you've got the better part of that deal. Hm.
12:39
Speaker 1: I'm standing if you, if you if I'm just saying
12:43
Speaker 1: at this point, at this point, productivity, production for this team,
12:50
Speaker 1: What were you getting with c J? What are you
12:52
Speaker 1: getting out of this out of this young man? I
12:55
Speaker 1: mean he's on the fields making catches, on the field,
12:58
Speaker 1: making catches, and and uh. C J first of all
13:01
Speaker 1: had a hard time getting on the field, and at
13:03
Speaker 1: times he looked good and at times, more times than not,
13:08
Speaker 1: he looked disinterested and so uh. And the other thing
13:12
Speaker 1: that was kind of interesting to me is that to
13:14
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers, they get c J and then they turn
13:19
Speaker 1: around and trade for another great corner from the New
13:22
Speaker 1: England Patriot. So it makes you wonder, did because they
13:26
Speaker 1: had a corner that got banged up well I know
13:27
Speaker 1: that horn? Did? I mean because they traded for J. C.
13:31
Speaker 1: Horne That's part of the reason why they got So
13:34
Speaker 1: did they look at c J for a week or
13:36
Speaker 1: two and go, Wow, it's not really what we were expecting,
13:39
Speaker 1: and then they worked the trade for Stevon Gilmour. Well,
13:42
Speaker 1: this goes you know, it's it's for this conversation and
13:46
Speaker 1: this point of the season. Yes, I mean it's it
13:48
Speaker 1: would be nice if he can continue to contribute at
13:50
Speaker 1: this pace dan Arnold, Right. I like what he's doing.
13:52
Speaker 1: I like his athleticism, I like his speed, and I
13:55
Speaker 1: think one thing that we haven't seen yet at some
13:57
Speaker 1: point we're gonna see. We're gonna see him them in
14:00
Speaker 1: a vertical aspect threatened defense. And we haven't really seen
14:03
Speaker 1: that yet. And that's what this offense has lacked. They
14:06
Speaker 1: haven't you know, sharks not there. Um Jamal Agnews average
14:11
Speaker 1: catch number last week it was like eight yards. You
14:13
Speaker 1: had a bunch of catches, but I mean as long
14:15
Speaker 1: as like eight Well, that was the one thing that
14:17
Speaker 1: they the coaching staff talked about many times throughout the
14:21
Speaker 1: preseason was, you know, speed on the field. And right
14:24
Speaker 1: now this offense doesn't have a vertical aspect that is
14:28
Speaker 1: threatening defenses. And I think that certainly is having an impact. Yeah,
14:31
Speaker 1: listen to these numbers. You know, Dan Arnold six catches
14:34
Speaker 1: sixty four yards, a little over ten yards, just under
14:37
Speaker 1: eleven long of eighteen not bad, which is about typical number.
14:41
Speaker 1: That's the first down every time he agnews six catches
14:44
Speaker 1: forty one yards six point eight average long of eight
14:48
Speaker 1: Austin five or fifty four, okay long it's twenty two
14:52
Speaker 1: in there. Chinold had the one with the long run
14:55
Speaker 1: after it. Um And then that's kind of what it is.
14:57
Speaker 1: They don't have any true I mean, it's a catch
14:59
Speaker 1: and run. Well, you know, you know, you're not having
15:03
Speaker 1: a lot of yards per catch numbers that are up
15:06
Speaker 1: in a higher echelon of wide receivers in the league.
15:09
Speaker 1: And I think two reasons you can go about getting that.
15:12
Speaker 1: One you throw passes that are deeper, but then also
15:16
Speaker 1: you have an electric receiver that once they catch it,
15:20
Speaker 1: they get yeah, yards after catch. And right now, the
15:23
Speaker 1: guy that is getting what I mean, I don't know this,
15:27
Speaker 1: I don't know the exact numbers, but from the eye test,
15:30
Speaker 1: it's Laviska Schennault Jr. Is the one who's really getting
15:34
Speaker 1: the yards after catch, you know, physically running through guys, etcetera.
15:38
Speaker 1: But the rest of them, right now, it's a catching
15:40
Speaker 1: and that's about it. You know, they're not doing much
15:42
Speaker 1: with it. I'd like to see that improved. You're gonna
15:45
Speaker 1: win down the field a little more too. To get
15:46
Speaker 1: open to begin well. I think that was one of
15:48
Speaker 1: the things that I thought from watching some of the
15:51
Speaker 1: game film that they didn't do a great job with
15:55
Speaker 1: against Tennessee. Tennessee was not afraid to play man, and
15:58
Speaker 1: when they played man, they covered him up pretty well.
16:01
Speaker 1: And that's you know when you when you got a
16:03
Speaker 1: team that's playing you man like that. And I think
16:05
Speaker 1: that's one of the reasons why Lavisca didn't have a
16:07
Speaker 1: lot of targets, didn't have a big number, is because
16:11
Speaker 1: that's the one thing he he does exceptionally well in
16:14
Speaker 1: his own type situation and man, he doesn't have the
16:19
Speaker 1: great speed and I think he's still learning how to
16:23
Speaker 1: to gain the separation in the route running part that
16:26
Speaker 1: he doesn't get that great separation and when you get
16:29
Speaker 1: facing man, a quarterback wants to see separation to throw
16:31
Speaker 1: the ball. When we return, logs will get to the
16:34
Speaker 1: Jags defense last week, communication changes on the field and
16:40
Speaker 1: maybe some issues with some of those communication changes. We'll
16:44
Speaker 1: hear from calebon Chase on as well. He had his
16:47
Speaker 1: arguably his best career game last week against Tennessee and
16:50
Speaker 1: coming up at five o'clock the Urban Meyers Show on

Speaker 1: It was I should have went to that one, really good.
19:05
Speaker 1: I'm glad it went so check it out. Was his
19:07
Speaker 1: voice it sounds great like it sounds just just fine,
19:11
Speaker 1: not like he had a great singing voice. It's different,
19:14
Speaker 1: but it's it sounds like Alice Cooper and the band
19:18
Speaker 1: was fantastic. They are. He's gotta He's got some excellent
19:21
Speaker 1: musicians around him. So check out daily's play schedule coming up.
19:24
Speaker 1: Um really really good. It has been for the last
19:27
Speaker 1: couple of months. Man, just just packing them in there.
19:29
Speaker 1: They're continuing to do that. Back to Jaguars defense, we
19:31
Speaker 1: just heard from Caleban there today. It's coming off arguingly
19:35
Speaker 1: his best statistical game as the Jaguar. Six tackles, a sack,
19:39
Speaker 1: two tackles for loss, three quarterback hits. Nearly had the
19:42
Speaker 1: sack fumble, but it was ruled in complete or reviewed
19:47
Speaker 1: and called in complete. So Jason was making an impact
19:50
Speaker 1: in the game. There was one play and you let
19:52
Speaker 1: the tight end get by him and score the touchdown.
19:56
Speaker 1: Air Urban talked about we've got a graphic up and
19:58
Speaker 1: and for those that are list in an on the radio,
20:01
Speaker 1: his his stat total from the game against Tennessee nearly
20:05
Speaker 1: equals the stat total from the entire season. Excuse me,
20:12
Speaker 1: if you go back experiously, he if you go back
20:14
Speaker 1: and compare his numbers to what he did this year
20:19
Speaker 1: in this one game, I mean it's dramatically improved. I
20:23
Speaker 1: thought he was exceptional because he played with speed, he
20:27
Speaker 1: played with power, played a little bit of had a
20:29
Speaker 1: little bit of nasty to him. But it wasn't perfect.
20:32
Speaker 1: When he starts talking about communication in his interview, right there,
20:36
Speaker 1: he's one of the guilty parties of of not having
20:39
Speaker 1: enough communication on the defensive side of the ball. Michael
20:42
Speaker 1: Prewitz touchdown catch. You could see that there was some
20:47
Speaker 1: communication going back and forth between him and Andrew Winger
20:52
Speaker 1: and trying to essentially say I got this guy, you
20:56
Speaker 1: got that guy, or no, no, no, no, no no no,
20:58
Speaker 1: I got this guy. You got that guy. Ball snap
21:00
Speaker 1: apped and somewhere Calevan got lost in that communication with
21:07
Speaker 1: wingered and did not cover Michael Pruitt, which was one
21:10
Speaker 1: of the plays which you know, the Tennessee Titan receiver
21:14
Speaker 1: of the tight end in this situation was wide open
21:16
Speaker 1: and everybody's going, how can that happen? Well, it was
21:19
Speaker 1: a communication, So something that needs to be cleaned up.
21:23
Speaker 1: But three or four defenses are all about the outside linebackers.
21:28
Speaker 1: Well yeah, all right, I mean they're doing a lot
21:30
Speaker 1: of different things. Well, I mean it can be about
21:32
Speaker 1: the inside linebackers and the safeties. You go back to
21:35
Speaker 1: some of the great Pittsburgh Steeler defenses, and everybody can
21:37
Speaker 1: make an impact, but the people that affect the quarterback
21:42
Speaker 1: that you get off the field with are the guys
21:44
Speaker 1: on the outside. And look at who's in Pittsburgh with
21:49
Speaker 1: t J. Watt, and they had Bud Dupree on the
21:52
Speaker 1: opposite side there in Pittsburgh for a few years and
21:54
Speaker 1: they were impacting the game a lot. And so you
21:57
Speaker 1: hope that Klaman can develop, that John Allen can get
22:01
Speaker 1: back to where he was a couple of years ago, because,
22:04
Speaker 1: to be perfectly honest, neither one of these these two
22:07
Speaker 1: guys have been great so far this year. Josh has
22:11
Speaker 1: just been okay. Caleban really hasn't even been okay up
22:15
Speaker 1: until this point, but he had a good game and
22:18
Speaker 1: I like it because a lot of times, as the
22:20
Speaker 1: first round pick, which is what he was last year,
22:22
Speaker 1: can feel the pressure and when he gains a little
22:25
Speaker 1: bit of confidence and a taste of success, it can
22:27
Speaker 1: kind of steamroll a little bit and and get better
22:30
Speaker 1: for him overall. So if they can get that performance
22:34
Speaker 1: weekend and week out out of him, it would be tremendous.
22:38
Speaker 1: This is the Dolphins offense. There are questions at quarterback.
22:41
Speaker 1: Of course, we'll get to those coming up. But they
22:43
Speaker 1: have some guys. They've got Gosseki it tight end, they've
22:47
Speaker 1: got Gasking out of the backfield they can dump it
22:49
Speaker 1: down to. They've got Wattle with the speed, first round
22:52
Speaker 1: pick wide receivers. So they've got some pieces on offense,
22:56
Speaker 1: and they can be a challenge if you know, if
23:00
Speaker 1: there are still communication issues anybody. Yeah, exactly, if you
23:04
Speaker 1: have communication issues, you can have a big challenge facing anybody.
23:08
Speaker 1: But here's the reality. If you look at the Miami
23:11
Speaker 1: Dolphins offense and points scored, total yards per game, rushing
23:18
Speaker 1: yards per game, passing yards per game, they're all the
23:22
Speaker 1: bottom three in the National Football League. Yeah, that's the reality.
23:28
Speaker 1: And then if to it comes back great, I mean
23:31
Speaker 1: how good was too when he was out on the field.
23:34
Speaker 1: Not very good. He's got it down on to all
23:36
Speaker 1: of a sudden. Well, look, I mean the reality is
23:38
Speaker 1: is that the rumors have been swirling for a long
23:40
Speaker 1: period of time about Deshaun Watson ending up with Miami
23:44
Speaker 1: and that you know, there's will they work it out.
23:46
Speaker 1: The Miami Dolphins want him desperately, but they're not willing
23:49
Speaker 1: to pay the price. Yet I mean, look, I mean
23:52
Speaker 1: all those things exist because that means that they're not
23:54
Speaker 1: that excited about two. If they felt that good about
23:57
Speaker 1: TOA that conversation would even be out there at all
24:02
Speaker 1: about the Dolphins, right, The Jaguars have the bye week
24:05
Speaker 1: next week after the London game. The Dolphins bye week
24:08
Speaker 1: is week fourteen. They've got to roll through all the
24:12
Speaker 1: way through. December five is their last game before the bye.
24:16
Speaker 1: I mean that's till they come back and they play
24:20
Speaker 1: at home next week against the falcon Well. The one
24:22
Speaker 1: good thing I will say about about the London trip,
24:25
Speaker 1: because we've done it before, and um, the way that
24:30
Speaker 1: they are doing the schedule now to where you're flying
24:33
Speaker 1: out and most teams now are flying out like on
24:36
Speaker 1: a Thursday. You get there on a Friday morning, you practice,
24:40
Speaker 1: you get a good night's sleep on Friday night, you
24:43
Speaker 1: get another good night's sleep on Saturday night. Don't take
24:46
Speaker 1: a nap when you get there. They take them right
24:48
Speaker 1: to the practice field. That formula seems to work, and
24:52
Speaker 1: they've done sleep studies and everything else to show that
24:55
Speaker 1: that's what's best. Since you play so early, you actually
24:59
Speaker 1: get home that night. Yeah, and so you're back in
25:02
Speaker 1: your bed on Sunday night. Now it's two in the morning,
25:05
Speaker 1: but yeah, it's late. Okay, Now, what would you need?
25:08
Speaker 1: Maybe a little bit more rest j P. It's a
25:11
Speaker 1: It's a heck of a lot better than turn around
25:13
Speaker 1: from Sunday game on the road and play on a
25:16
Speaker 1: Thursday night game, which teams do all the time. So
25:19
Speaker 1: is it that much to ask for a team to
25:21
Speaker 1: come back and to play a game at home on
25:24
Speaker 1: a return from London. I don't think it's that much
25:26
Speaker 1: of an ass Well, I guess my kind of my
25:28
Speaker 1: point was bringing that up with Miami is that there's
25:30
Speaker 1: no natural off bye week to address the quarterback thing
25:35
Speaker 1: if they wanted to take a move and do that,
25:37
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, there's the game every
25:38
Speaker 1: week and they're just gonna have to go after it
25:40
Speaker 1: whenever they feel like it's time, if they if they
25:42
Speaker 1: feel like it's I wish the Jaguars had the bye
25:45
Speaker 1: week later. I mean, I I to be a long
25:48
Speaker 1: stretch at the end. I'll say that that's a marathon.
25:51
Speaker 1: I mean, it's you always like to have the bye
25:54
Speaker 1: week really to fall right in the middle of the season.
25:57
Speaker 1: So we've usually usually had the London game, but about
26:00
Speaker 1: weeks seven or eight and then the bye week right after,
26:02
Speaker 1: so it's naturally kind of been that way. It's just
26:04
Speaker 1: a little earlier this year. Let's come back in just
26:06
Speaker 1: a few minutes. We'll get into the Miami Dolphins defense,
26:10
Speaker 1: see what they have to offer. I though you've done
26:13
Speaker 1: your deep dive into the Dolphins tape, would say deep,
26:15
Speaker 1: but I've looked at him a little bit, Dovin. We'll
26:18
Speaker 1: see you're you're waiting into the Dolphins tape. I've studied
26:23
Speaker 1: them a little bit and that we'll study them more. Well,
26:27
Speaker 1: we will, and we'll discuss all that when we return.
26:29
Speaker 1: Check out the Official Jaguars Podcast Network on Apple, it Tunes, Spotify,
26:33

26:37
Speaker 1: Happy Hour on the Jaguars Hard Rock Sports Book Digital Network.
26:44
Speaker 1: Welcome back. It's Jaguars Happy Hour and Jaguars Game Day
26:48
Speaker 1: broadcasts are presented by Vistar Credit Union, j P. Shadrick,
26:52
Speaker 1: Jeff Logaman. Glad you're along with us. This afternoon at
26:55
Speaker 1: five o'clock, it's the Urban Meyer Show with the Jaguars
26:57
Speaker 1: head coach joining us as we get ready for week six.
27:01
Speaker 1: Totten to marts Hotspur Stadium, North London, and the Jaguars
27:05
Speaker 1: first visit to that fairly news stadium a couple of
27:09
Speaker 1: years old. Now. The jaguars previous London games, of course
27:12
Speaker 1: have been played at Wimbley. This is under the NFL's
27:15
Speaker 1: umbrella this year and helping fulfill that two game agreement
27:20
Speaker 1: there for the league at Spurs. So it's a Week
27:23
Speaker 1: two of the London Series this year, the thirtie all
27:26
Speaker 1: time London game in the international series for the National
27:29
Speaker 1: Football League. And they've actually announced earlier today that there
27:32
Speaker 1: are three cities in Germany vying for an opportunity to
27:36
Speaker 1: host NFL games in the future, and Frankfurt, Dusseldorf and
27:41
Speaker 1: Munich Um. So we'll see. Frankfurt would be I just
27:46
Speaker 1: remember the NFL Europe and I called a game in
27:51
Speaker 1: in Berlin and that was a great experience. But I
27:55
Speaker 1: do remember the one thing about NFL Europe. Frankfurt fans
27:58
Speaker 1: were absolutely fanatical about their team. I mean they traveled
28:03
Speaker 1: and everything. That was like the best traveling NFL Europe
28:08
Speaker 1: team that there was, I think, and uh, pretty cool.
28:11
Speaker 1: So Frankfurt would be a good place, but who knows.
28:13
Speaker 1: So I think it's a big weekend because I wouldn't
28:16
Speaker 1: put it in Berlin though, No, Berlin is not among
28:19
Speaker 1: the teams the cities that are vying for it. So
28:22
Speaker 1: it has to be a partnership between the league and
28:24
Speaker 1: the cities, and and they want that to really be
28:26
Speaker 1: a true partnership. So the process continues, and maybe as
28:30
Speaker 1: early as next season, but maybe three you could have
28:33
Speaker 1: a game in Germany or more. Who knows. But let's uh,
28:38
Speaker 1: let's get to the Dolphins defense. Christian Wilkins is their
28:42
Speaker 1: former first round pick out of Clemson. The teammate was
28:45
Speaker 1: Trevor Back on the championship team. By the way, Um,
28:50
Speaker 1: you know has a sack, four tackles for loss, four
28:54
Speaker 1: hits on the quarterback this year. I mean, what what
28:57
Speaker 1: what stands out about this Dolphins defense that just started
29:00
Speaker 1: with him because he's a first round pick and went
29:02
Speaker 1: to Clemson. What what else do they offer on defense?
29:05
Speaker 1: I mean, they're very average, to be perfectly honest with you, Um,
29:11
Speaker 1: the two categories that you always look at when you
29:13
Speaker 1: start when I start the evaluation process before I even
29:16
Speaker 1: start breaking down the film, because I want to see
29:18
Speaker 1: where they're at statistically, because it never that doesn't tell
29:21
Speaker 1: all the story, but at least she gives you go
29:23
Speaker 1: where to start, an idea of kind of where to
29:25
Speaker 1: look at and say, Okay, well they're deficient in this area,
29:28
Speaker 1: so let's take a look at this. Okay, but points
29:31
Speaker 1: allowed in total defense there and both categories, and that's
29:35
Speaker 1: not a good number obviously. So the way they've impacted
29:39
Speaker 1: the quarterback is not great. They don't have a ton
29:41
Speaker 1: of sacks. The one player that I will say that
29:45
Speaker 1: is awesome and I don't even have to look at
29:48
Speaker 1: the film because his past production has been amazing, which
29:53
Speaker 1: is their corner xaviing Howard and Trevor better be careful
29:57
Speaker 1: if he's thrown it around him because he is an
30:00
Speaker 1: absolute interception machine. But they've got a lot of high
30:04
Speaker 1: picks and guys that I mean. They've been trying to
30:06
Speaker 1: build this football team through the draft, and obviously Brian
30:10
Speaker 1: Flores is a disciple of Bill Belichick, and he leaves
30:14
Speaker 1: and drafting to develop, and they've got a general manager
30:16
Speaker 1: believes in the same thing. The problem is is that
30:19
Speaker 1: they they right now don't appear to be developed the
30:25
Speaker 1: drafting parts they're the developing. As the second last year
30:28
Speaker 1: they played well. I don't know what's happened to him,
30:31
Speaker 1: but the play the quarterback obviously has had had a
30:34
Speaker 1: big impact. But defensively, they're just they're not even average.
30:38
Speaker 1: And so this is a great opportunity for the Jaguars
30:42
Speaker 1: football team because they have questions on all offense and
30:44
Speaker 1: questions at the quarterback position, and then defensively they're not great.
30:49
Speaker 1: And obviously Tom Brady just absolutely boat raced him five
30:52
Speaker 1: touchdown passed and he was and I've watched some of
30:56
Speaker 1: the film and it was ridiculous. I mean, I just,
31:01
Speaker 1: I mean, God is forty four years old and he's
31:04
Speaker 1: standing back in the pocket and he's throwing just babies,
31:07
Speaker 1: I mean babies. He's got man coverage. And of course,
31:12
Speaker 1: probably a mistake to play Tampa and man because they
31:16
Speaker 1: have a lot of talent, and they have more talent
31:20
Speaker 1: because their quarterback is so dag I'm good, and they
31:23
Speaker 1: get they get that much separation, separation between wide receiver
31:28
Speaker 1: and defensive backup cop like no problem. So Evans and
31:35
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown and those guys running around to help you,
31:37
Speaker 1: but I'm with you. That's that's how they got carved
31:40
Speaker 1: up a little bit last week. If you're the Jaguars
31:42
Speaker 1: offense this week, how many touches are you giving James Robinson?
31:46
Speaker 1: If you're Darryl Bevil, I think a lot of it
31:48
Speaker 1: depends on the success of the offense overall. And I
31:53
Speaker 1: think that's seriously. I mean, in a perfect world, you'd
31:56
Speaker 1: love to have James Robinson with touches, touches, twenty rushes
32:01
Speaker 1: on the ground, let's say four or five reception somewhere
32:04
Speaker 1: in that range, and that's he hasn't been there yet.
32:07
Speaker 1: But you also have to have success as an offense
32:10
Speaker 1: to be able to put place together to get him
32:12
Speaker 1: to those types of numbers. And right now, the offense
32:17
Speaker 1: is not doing a great job on third down production,
32:21
Speaker 1: so that's also limiting the number of plays that you
32:24
Speaker 1: get as an offense. There twenty nine in the league
32:27
Speaker 1: at third down production, and you've got a young quarterback
32:31
Speaker 1: whose completion rate is not great and he's working on that.
32:34
Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, in a perfect world, but can
32:39
Speaker 1: you get there? It's been a it's been a short
32:42
Speaker 1: to get him even close to there. Hasn't really been
32:45
Speaker 1: close to there yet the season. And now we just
32:47
Speaker 1: showed a graphic on Jaguars dot Com after Monday Night's game.
32:50
Speaker 1: He's now moved down to tiede twelveth in the league
32:53
Speaker 1: in rushing attempts sixties seven of those this year, but
32:56
Speaker 1: fourth in the league, and rushing yardage seven yards on
32:59
Speaker 1: the ground. Last week was his career game against Tennessee
33:03
Speaker 1: in terms of yardage. He had a fifty eight yard
33:05
Speaker 1: running there. That was his career long run. Couldn't finish it, unfortunately.
33:09
Speaker 1: That was That's been the storyline with Robinson early in
33:11
Speaker 1: his career. But you know, they didn't give them the
33:14
Speaker 1: ball up in the second half though, and that's really
33:16
Speaker 1: been a talking point this week. Well, I mean, look,
33:19
Speaker 1: the one of the reasons why that they drafted Travis C.
33:23
Speaker 1: T N was because of the play that we're seeing
33:25
Speaker 1: in our television right now that James Robinson got caught
33:29
Speaker 1: from behind. If that's Travis E. T N. He's not caught.
33:32
Speaker 1: And so you you try to get as much speed
33:34
Speaker 1: on the field as you can, but you can't ignore
33:37
Speaker 1: the production of James Robinson, even though even though he
33:40
Speaker 1: does not have elade speed. I mean, I'll take five
33:43
Speaker 1: point eight yards of carry every day of the week. Absolutely, absolutely,
33:47
Speaker 1: He's a He's an outstanding back. We're actually gonna look
33:50
Speaker 1: at the play that we're looking at now, the fifty
33:51
Speaker 1: eight yard run on Jack's Wired, I believe, or Jaguars
33:56
Speaker 1: All Access on one of those two shows where be
34:00
Speaker 1: because we're looking at that run and then we're also
34:02
Speaker 1: looking at Trevor Lawrences for your touchdown run and how
34:05
Speaker 1: angles and numbers always factor into successful play calls. Sources
34:09
Speaker 1: say it's Jaguars All Access, you'll be looking at that.
34:12
Speaker 1: At the James Robinson run. Yes, there's so many you
34:15
Speaker 1: you you dig into so much film and tape that
34:18
Speaker 1: it's hard to keep it all together. It's a it's
34:20
Speaker 1: a it's a really really neat blocking scheme on that
34:23
Speaker 1: James Robinson ror. Not to get too technical, but just
34:25
Speaker 1: a little teaser. If you watch it on Jack's Wire,
34:28
Speaker 1: you'll learn about combo blocks. And combo blocks means that
34:31
Speaker 1: you're using a combination of two people of your people
34:35
Speaker 1: to block two of theirs. So it's a pretty cool concept. Alright,
34:39
Speaker 1: two guys blocking one and then open it on two
34:41
Speaker 1: guys blocking too, and it's just sometimes it depends on
34:44
Speaker 1: how they move as to who blocks who. You'll learn
34:49
Speaker 1: about that I'll have to watch. Maybe I'll learn something.
34:52
Speaker 1: I think you might. I think I will maybe who knows,
34:56
Speaker 1: But you're sometimes part of it. You might not learn.
34:58
Speaker 1: Oh I'll learn. I like I'm here to learn. Coachable,
35:02
Speaker 1: always man, always getting better. That's how it works. But
35:05
Speaker 1: I love I love James Robinson. I do. I think
35:08
Speaker 1: I think the the disappointing thing for me in that
35:12
Speaker 1: ball game. And I totally understand that you know you're
35:15
Speaker 1: trying to rotate guys, keep them fresh, keep them strong,
35:20
Speaker 1: defensive line obviously, that goes without saying, and also running
35:22
Speaker 1: back that you know what you would like to the more,
35:25
Speaker 1: especially the more players you get as an offense. But
35:28
Speaker 1: in the second half where James was being rested in,
35:31
Speaker 1: Carlos Hyde was on the field, and then you had
35:33
Speaker 1: that big long play to Lavisco fifty eight yards, and
35:37
Speaker 1: then you had a situation where you got first and
35:39
Speaker 1: goal to five. I was sitting there going, Okay, put
35:42
Speaker 1: James in. What's wrong with him? Is something wrong? I mean,
35:46
Speaker 1: that's this game is about players and having your best
35:50
Speaker 1: players in the best position to win. And I believe
35:54
Speaker 1: that James Robinson should have been on the field on
35:56
Speaker 1: first and goal from the five. He's areably your best player,
36:01
Speaker 1: and he was out of gas at that point. No, no, no, no,
36:04
Speaker 1: he he had been out for like four plays and
36:06
Speaker 1: then also the Titans offense was on the field, so
36:10
Speaker 1: it wasn't like that he was gassed. He just he
36:14
Speaker 1: had not run for fifty eight just then. So because
36:19
Speaker 1: he's your best running back and when you get in
36:22
Speaker 1: a scoring position, get your best players out there and execute,
36:27
Speaker 1: and he didn't. He wasn't given that opportunity and that
36:31
Speaker 1: that was disappointing to me. When we come back, we
36:35
Speaker 1: will touch on the Dolphins quarterback situation. Jacobe Rissette to
36:40
Speaker 1: a tongue of Iloa or others. Get to the path
36:44
Speaker 1: to sell injury reports and take a look at the
36:47
Speaker 1: a f C South as well. If you're looking for
36:50
Speaker 1: the m v P of the truck game, then look

Speaker 1: no further than four and f one fifty. Loaded with
36:54

Speaker 1: I am veterans. Choose v A for the benefits you've earned.
38:09
Speaker 1: Visit choose dot v A dot gov. Let's get now
38:12
Speaker 1: to the Baptist Health Injury Report, changing healthcare for good
38:17
Speaker 1: and today. Unfortunately, Brandon Linder placed on injured reserve. You
38:21
Speaker 1: don't have to designate if it's for the year or not.
38:23
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer Monday said it could be four to five
38:26
Speaker 1: weeks with a high ankle issue. He said they're looking
38:29
Speaker 1: to get him back. When he talked to the media day,
38:32
Speaker 1: he said, you know, we think we can get him back.
38:34
Speaker 1: So that's a good thing. Right, Well that happened or
38:37
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the only time will tell, but
38:39
Speaker 1: you know, their hope is that they can get him back.
38:41
Speaker 1: He also said Monday that Tyson Campbell rookie corners day
38:45
Speaker 1: to day, You'll see how the week goes with him.
38:46
Speaker 1: With the toe. He missed last week's game. He tested
38:49
Speaker 1: that he tested the the toe out because it's a toe.
38:52
Speaker 1: He tested the toe out before the game. And I
38:54
Speaker 1: watched the warm up that he was having with the
38:57
Speaker 1: medical people and his position coach or I it was
39:00
Speaker 1: actually the safety's coach, because the quarnerbacks coach was out
39:04
Speaker 1: with COVID for that game, and you could you could
39:07
Speaker 1: clearly see that he wasn't he was not ready and
39:11
Speaker 1: will he be ready this week? Uh, we'll see. Miles
39:16
Speaker 1: Jack came out with what was called a hip issue,
39:18
Speaker 1: but urban said on Monday it was an oblique same thing.
39:22
Speaker 1: See how the week goes with him and and move on. Yeah. Here,
39:25
Speaker 1: here's one thing I think that you kind of consider too,
39:29
Speaker 1: is that you have a bye week next week, so
39:33
Speaker 1: some of these injured guys, you can say, Okay, there's
39:37
Speaker 1: two ways to look at One is is to say, well,
39:39
Speaker 1: if we if he plays well, then he's got you know,
39:43
Speaker 1: a whole week off and and can rest, etcetera. The
39:46
Speaker 1: other philosophy is, hey, look, if if he rests this
39:49
Speaker 1: game and then he gets the bye week, then maybe
39:53
Speaker 1: we can put some of this injury business behind him
39:57
Speaker 1: and that he'll be fine for the rest of the season.
39:59
Speaker 1: So there's kind of two ways to look at that.
40:02
Speaker 1: And if it's a something that you can avoid it
40:05
Speaker 1: being nagging, then you go ahead and try to not
40:08
Speaker 1: have the player play in this game because you're gonna
40:11
Speaker 1: get the additional time off because of the bye week.
40:15
Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the AFC South standings, as
40:17
Speaker 1: gruesome as they are right now. Tennessee three and two,
40:22
Speaker 1: Houston one and four, indeed one and four after their
40:26
Speaker 1: loss last night they i lost a three score lead
40:29
Speaker 1: in the second half, and then the Jaguars at old
40:31
Speaker 1: and five at the bottom. Let's take a look now
40:33
Speaker 1: at the results from the weekend. Of course, we know
40:36
Speaker 1: what the Titans did here thirty seven nineteen Patriots over
40:41
Speaker 1: the Texans, but Davis Mills had a pretty good game,
40:44
Speaker 1: actually three touchdowns for the rookie quarterback twenty nine. And
40:47
Speaker 1: then Lamar Jackson was fantastic for the Ravens last night
40:51
Speaker 1: in a rally four forty two yards passing four touchdowns.
40:57
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz was good too on the other side, now
41:00
Speaker 1: over four hundred yards of savit. He was in Lamar Jackson.
41:03
Speaker 1: When I went to sleep, the Colts had a comfortable lead.
41:08
Speaker 1: I wake up and Clay's Campbell Lamar Jackson or being
41:14
Speaker 1: talked about him like COLI has had a block field goal?
41:17
Speaker 1: That what that field goal made it a to score
41:19
Speaker 1: game and pretty much ice the game. He blocks the
41:21
Speaker 1: field goal, they go down and score the game tying
41:23
Speaker 1: touchdown after the on the drive after it was unbelievable.
41:27
Speaker 1: And and here here's here's the crazy thing. You couldn't
41:30
Speaker 1: be happier for him. The love the guy, total pro
41:34
Speaker 1: He's he played here for three seasons and I was
41:36
Speaker 1: thinking about this after he blocked the field goal last night.
41:39
Speaker 1: He is He's fourth in franchise history in sacks. I mean,
41:42
Speaker 1: he was the Walter Payton Man of the Year, First
41:45
Speaker 1: Team All Pro, what did the Pro Bowl like? He's
41:47
Speaker 1: one of the all time great Jaguars and just three
41:50
Speaker 1: seasons here. He's one of those guys that I just
41:52
Speaker 1: I just wish there was a way that you could
41:54
Speaker 1: have found to keep him, find a way to keep him.
41:58
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just that the guys like that, I mean,
42:00
Speaker 1: are great examples for everybody that comes in the door
42:03
Speaker 1: and for young players to come in and learn from.
42:06
Speaker 1: I mean, John Josh Allen had and he'll look back
42:09
Speaker 1: at this and I know he greatly appreciates the time
42:11
Speaker 1: that he was able to spend with Clays Campbell, and
42:13
Speaker 1: you just wish that you had more other other young
42:16
Speaker 1: players to be able to have that benefit as well.
42:19
Speaker 1: But I mean, it's it's a game, and it's a business,
42:22
Speaker 1: and you know money as a factor. Totally understand all
42:25
Speaker 1: those things, but there's also there's certain things that you
42:28
Speaker 1: just you can't put a number on, and you gotta
42:32
Speaker 1: have you gotta have guys that can can show you
42:36
Speaker 1: the way, because that's so important in this league because
42:39
Speaker 1: it's it's a tough league. If you would have played
42:43
Speaker 1: in that defensive scheme the Jaguars had in those three
42:47
Speaker 1: years his whole career and put up the numbers an
42:51
Speaker 1: average number you know, ten double digits. He's looking at
42:54
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. He's a big statistically down, but
42:57
Speaker 1: he's come on late. He also developed, I mean, he
43:00
Speaker 1: just continued to develop as he was a player, and
43:03
Speaker 1: he was stuck a little bit stuck in a scheme
43:07
Speaker 1: that played a true three four that didn't take advantage
43:11
Speaker 1: of some of his skill set as a defensive end
43:14
Speaker 1: in Arizona. And wow, I mean when here, I'll just
43:19
Speaker 1: I'll just never forget the first time that he gets
43:22
Speaker 1: in a live game and you go, oh my goodness,
43:27
Speaker 1: he was so powerful that even the strongest guards in
43:33
Speaker 1: the league couldn't stop him. It was like a a
43:37
Speaker 1: barge or a big ship coming into port and it
43:41
Speaker 1: and it's out of control and it just it just
43:44
Speaker 1: plows through everything. And that's how he was. It wasn't
43:47
Speaker 1: like he's just some big fat guy running through He
43:50
Speaker 1: has that. He's six eight, he's got leverage, and he's
43:52
Speaker 1: just stout. And I've never, I've never there's only a
43:57
Speaker 1: couple of guys that I've ever felt small around. You know,
44:03
Speaker 1: six six, you know, six five and a half and
44:07
Speaker 1: a half. Stop it, that's not six six, six five
44:09
Speaker 1: and a half it's not six six though, don't. I don't.
44:12
Speaker 1: You don't round up either, you are you aren't six.
44:14
Speaker 1: At one time I measured six six. You get a
44:18
Speaker 1: little older guy. That's there's truth to that. But there's
44:22
Speaker 1: only a couple of guys that I have ever felt
44:25
Speaker 1: small around. I mean I'm talking like felt small. Two specifically, Okay,
44:34
Speaker 1: the CELLI was not really John Ogden was one. When
44:39
Speaker 1: you stand next to John Ogden, you feel like you
44:43
Speaker 1: are a midget compared to him, I mean, just like small,
44:48
Speaker 1: skinny everything about him. And then the other one was Calais,
44:52
Speaker 1: because I mean, here's a guy. I mean, it's just
44:54
Speaker 1: physically bigger than you and just and it's not like
45:00
Speaker 1: they're pumped up. You know. What might I mean by
45:02
Speaker 1: pumped up is that there's a lot of guys that
45:05
Speaker 1: give an example, um, the offensive lineman that that plays
45:09
Speaker 1: for the Buccaneers. Now, josh played here for a number
45:13
Speaker 1: of years seventy two. Joshua Well, okay, wells he's a
45:18
Speaker 1: guy kindles like me, you know, kind of skinny kid.
45:20
Speaker 1: And then he lifted weights and he would eat a
45:22
Speaker 1: lot of sandwiches and drink protein shakes and lift more
45:25
Speaker 1: weights and do all that stuff to get big. Clays
45:29
Speaker 1: are just big. John Odden, I mean his poor mom
45:35
Speaker 1: and dad had to feed him. Oh my god. We're
45:37
Speaker 1: just just naturally big people six eight three and is
45:45
Speaker 1: the classiest, one of the classiest guys I've ever met.
45:50
Speaker 1: And and there's there's there's guys in the category. And
45:54
Speaker 1: I think of Calais Campbell, Darryl Smith, Marcedes Lewis. I
46:00
Speaker 1: mean great Jaguars that had a class about them. I
46:05
Speaker 1: mean I'm talking total pros, great examples to the young players.
46:09
Speaker 1: And there's other guys that I've played with that were
46:11
Speaker 1: that were great players and and they had to learn that.
46:15
Speaker 1: But I mean these guys when they came in the door,
46:18
Speaker 1: that's how they were wired. And it's uh, it was
46:21
Speaker 1: impressive to be around those three guys, and I appreciated them,
46:25
Speaker 1: uh for everything that they contributed to the organization. And
46:27
Speaker 1: I think all three of their times were cut short
46:30
Speaker 1: here a little too early. Alright, Final thoughts about this
46:35
Speaker 1: game coming up Sunday, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The Jaguars have
46:38
Speaker 1: dropped their last two trips to London. They lost to
46:41
Speaker 1: the Eagles in twenty eighteen, they lost to the Texans
46:44
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, they were blown out by the Texans.
46:47
Speaker 1: They turned the Bowl over the last four possessions of
46:50
Speaker 1: that game, in fact against the Texans defense that day,
46:53
Speaker 1: And of course the London game was not played last year.
46:56
Speaker 1: The Jags all time three and four at Winbley. They're
46:58
Speaker 1: playing at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium against the Miami Dolphins team
47:02
Speaker 1: and really both teams are up against it. They need
47:04
Speaker 1: to win in the worst way. That Jaguars a drop
47:06
Speaker 1: twenty straight. That's the third longest losing skin and league history.
47:09
Speaker 1: The Dolphins have dropped four straight after winning their opener.
47:12
Speaker 1: They've got quarterback questions. Uh, if you're the Jaguars, which
47:18
Speaker 1: Dolphins quarterback would you rather face Sunday Brissette or to
47:23
Speaker 1: a Uh, that's it's an interesting question. Brissette, I mean,
47:28
Speaker 1: and neither one of them have played exceptionally well. The
47:32
Speaker 1: mobility of two would be a concern for me. And
47:36
Speaker 1: Brissette's more of a classic stay in the pocket. He's
47:40
Speaker 1: got good arm and and um, I don't think he's
47:44
Speaker 1: I don't think he's a great franchise type quarterback, but
47:46
Speaker 1: I think he has some some skills that that he's
47:49
Speaker 1: a really good backup at times. But I just the
47:52
Speaker 1: unknown with two and the mobility factor. If he has that,
47:58
Speaker 1: that adds another element for the Jaguars defense to contend with.
48:02
Speaker 1: And we've seen the Jaguars have a hard time stopping
48:06
Speaker 1: quarterbacks that can extend place and having issues with that.
48:11
Speaker 1: That would concern me with two of not that he's
48:14
Speaker 1: gonna be able to do it. I know, I know
48:16
Speaker 1: you love him JP, an Alabama guy, doesn't matter anymore
48:19
Speaker 1: of it. But like you know, if he's in there,
48:21
Speaker 1: but I gotta go hit him because he's got I
48:23
Speaker 1: can tell you this. If he's in there, you are
48:26
Speaker 1: taking every shot that you possibly can take at him,
48:31
Speaker 1: and then some and and and then I hate to
48:34
Speaker 1: say this, but I would even be taking borderline shows.
48:37
Speaker 1: Oh boy, here we go. Don't say that we're legal
48:40
Speaker 1: over here. We're legal over here. I will, you might,
48:42
Speaker 1: but we're legal over here these Jaguars. I mean, look,
48:45
Speaker 1: I said, so you know, if you if you can
48:48
Speaker 1: make think about it a little bit, what's wrong with that.
48:50
Speaker 1: Let's see how how healed these ribs really are. I look,
48:55
Speaker 1: and you better get around his ribs. I mean, first
48:58
Speaker 1: of all, you gotta get around it, so I've you
49:00
Speaker 1: gotta beat somebody. True, we've had some issues on that front.
49:04
Speaker 1: But if you're Calaban Chaison or Josh Allen and when
49:08
Speaker 1: you have an opportunity and you're closing in from behind them,
49:13
Speaker 1: arms are coming in, shoulder, going right in the rib section,
49:18
Speaker 1: that'll do it for Jaguars Happy Hour. Coming up on
49:20
Speaker 1: the Jaguars Radio Network. It's the Urban Meyers Show. We'll
49:24
Speaker 1: hear from the Jaguars head coach, recap last week's game,
49:27
Speaker 1: look ahead to the London matchup for the Jaguars against
49:30
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins that's coming up in just a few moments.
49:35
Speaker 1: In fact, this has been Jaguars Happy Hour on the
49:38
Speaker 1: Jaguars Hard Rock Sports Book Digital Network
