- 0:52Speaker 1: I lost to the Browns with the starters played pretty well,
- 0:55Speaker 1: and we'll look ahead the preseason Week two. The Pittsburgh
- 0:57Speaker 1: Steelers come to town this week. Social your questions, we
- 1:01Speaker 1: put out the cat signal and we'll give you the
- 1:04Speaker 1: best we came up with. Coming up in just a
- 1:06Speaker 1: little bit. Bucky Brooks with us now from Los Angeles, California,
- 1:11Speaker 1: and Bucky, good afternoon. Here we are in preseason week
- 1:14Speaker 1: number two. What's up? Nice sweatshirt? Oh you like that.
- 1:17Speaker 1: I'm feeling very duvalish today, so I'm excited about it.
- 1:22Speaker 1: We got another big preseason game coming up this weekend,
- 1:24Speaker 1: so I'm trying to get ready, JP, trying to get ready. Yeah,
- 1:27Speaker 1: good thing you didn't wear that down here today. It
- 1:30Speaker 1: was warm. A bunch of players in practice today didn't
- 1:34Speaker 1: make it to the end of practice. I counted about
- 1:36Speaker 1: ten somewhere in that ballpark you had to leave and
- 1:39Speaker 1: come back to practice with heat related issues. You gotta
- 1:42Speaker 1: remember they hadn't been on the field in the warm
- 1:45Speaker 1: environment since the middle of last week. They had the
- 1:48Speaker 1: preseason game at night, and then they had a night
- 1:50Speaker 1: practice Monday, off days on Saturday, Sunday, and Tuesday. All
- 1:55Speaker 1: of a sudden, they're back in the elements again today, Bucky, Well,
- 1:58Speaker 1: look the whole fully. Uh. We didn't lose anybody. Uh seriously,
- 2:03Speaker 1: it was just a little Hey, we gotta get off
- 2:05Speaker 1: to feel cool down and then we can get back
- 2:07Speaker 1: at it tomorrow. But yeah, the heat is an issue,
- 2:10Speaker 1: and it's one of those things that in Jacksonville. You
- 2:13Speaker 1: always like to think that this is a home field advantage,
- 2:15Speaker 1: particularly early in the season, and so without practicing in it,
- 2:19Speaker 1: having a week aware from dealing with the elements, Yeah,
- 2:23Speaker 1: you have some of these issues, but uh, the team
- 2:26Speaker 1: overall would be better for it in terms of practicing
- 2:29Speaker 1: for it, because man, it's gonna be a nightmare for opponents.
- 2:31Speaker 1: Mother nature always wins, it seems like Bucky and certainly
- 2:35Speaker 1: when it comes to heat, the defense brought some heat
- 2:38Speaker 1: of their own today, Bucky and they were working in
- 2:41Speaker 1: some third mediums and lungs, according to Trevor Lawrence, and
- 2:44Speaker 1: the offense just had some issues, some fits and starts today,
- 2:48Speaker 1: couldn't get it done, a couple interceptions, some miscommunications in
- 2:52Speaker 1: the backfield. And Trevor Lawrence today after practice, discussing that
- 2:56Speaker 1: defense and trying to get back on track as an offense,
- 3:01Speaker 1: we were just talking about just so many different looks
- 3:03Speaker 1: you see from our defense. It's, uh, it's really good
- 3:06Speaker 1: for us because you see every look and then in
- 3:08Speaker 1: the game if they throw something at you that you
- 3:11Speaker 1: didn't game plan for, you know, we've already seen on
- 3:13Speaker 1: the practice field. So from that standpoint, it's great. But Also,
- 3:16Speaker 1: it can be tough when you get in these periods.
- 3:19Speaker 1: We were working third and medium DeLong every play and
- 3:21Speaker 1: you're seeing every different type of pressure known to man,
- 3:24Speaker 1: and um, you didn't really have you can't game plan
- 3:26Speaker 1: for because they have everything in So that's just honestly,
- 3:29Speaker 1: kudos to them for dialing it up today. You know,
- 3:33Speaker 1: they got us on a few and um, just being
- 3:35Speaker 1: able to watch that tape and all of us talk
- 3:37Speaker 1: about it together, how we're gonna protect it, what are
- 3:39Speaker 1: our route adjustments and also protection wise, like what would
- 3:42Speaker 1: we rather be in versus certain looks. So I mean,
- 3:44Speaker 1: the more you can get to that, the better. That's
- 3:46Speaker 1: just gonna help us. But yeah, it wasn't our sharpest
- 3:47Speaker 1: day offensively, But um, that's what I was just saying.
- 3:50Speaker 1: You gotta really that's one thing I've learned is you
- 3:52Speaker 1: gotta be focused on the next day. Not worry about
- 3:54Speaker 1: what what just happened, what happened yesterday, Um, really focus
- 3:57Speaker 1: on the next one. Well, Bucky is an offense. They
- 4:00Speaker 1: can go back and watch this tape from today and
- 4:02Speaker 1: and work on a few of those nuances and and
- 4:05Speaker 1: how to adjust on the fly when things happen. You
- 4:07Speaker 1: aren't expecting. Yeah, haven't watched the defense a couple of
- 4:12Speaker 1: times live. They do present a ton of challenges for
- 4:16Speaker 1: an offense, very multiple and how they want to come
- 4:19Speaker 1: after you. Mike always has done a really good job
- 4:21Speaker 1: of putting together a handful of blitz packages. That makes
- 4:24Speaker 1: it challenging to deal with this defense. And so when
- 4:28Speaker 1: I think about what Trevor Lawrence is facing on a
- 4:30Speaker 1: daily basis, the different zone blitzes, the different man blitzes,
- 4:34Speaker 1: having to try and figure out how to do sight
- 4:35Speaker 1: adjustments versus manners on on the move, and the overload
- 4:39Speaker 1: pressures with the big bodies that the Jacks have upfront. Yeah,
- 4:42Speaker 1: it can be problematic. And I know when you're looking
- 4:45Speaker 1: at it every day, you're optimistic that your team is
- 4:48Speaker 1: gonna play at a high level. But I do believe
- 4:50Speaker 1: from what we've already seen in preseason, this defense can
- 4:53Speaker 1: be a handful of four opponents. Which dog is this now,
- 4:57Speaker 1: it's it's the first segment of the man It isn't like.
- 5:00Speaker 1: So here's the thing, guys, Like, I had so many
- 5:02Speaker 1: things going on in the house today right had to
- 5:05Speaker 1: remodel the classes coming in and right now, I thought
- 5:09Speaker 1: that I would have the gardener show up before this.
- 5:13Speaker 1: So now the gardens outside and like the weed wrack
- 5:15Speaker 1: is going and Luna the pit bull is going app
- 5:18Speaker 1: absolutely crazy, just going absolutely bananas. Right, that's why you're
- 5:22Speaker 1: in the background. Oh we hear it. Yeah, absolutely getting
- 5:26Speaker 1: after it for sure. More on that coming up. That's
- 5:30Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks. I'm JP Shadick. It's huddle up the first
- 5:32Speaker 1: Wednesday show in the afternoon in this season. Let's continue
- 5:38Speaker 1: on offense. Bucky's A Jones continues to impress. You know,
- 5:42Speaker 1: the first play from scrimmage the other night was press.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Taylor said today they had not repped until the pregame
- 5:50Speaker 1: warm up, and they throw it in there and it
- 5:53Speaker 1: works out pretty well. And then of course on Monday
- 5:56Speaker 1: night he comes out and has a great practice in
- 5:58Speaker 1: the stadium and it's not really it shouldn't really be
- 6:02Speaker 1: a surprise. This is what they expected, I think when
- 6:04Speaker 1: they signed him. But he's all in the playbook, he's
- 6:07Speaker 1: all about it, and it's at least proving so far
- 6:10Speaker 1: Bucky to be a great combination with Lawrence and Z Jones.
- 6:14Speaker 1: Great combination. And the reason why it works is because
- 6:17Speaker 1: A Jones is a vent who's been around the block
- 6:18Speaker 1: a few times. And when you have a young quarterback,
- 6:21Speaker 1: you want to surround him with experience so that the
- 6:23Speaker 1: quarterback can trust and when he lets the ball go,
- 6:25Speaker 1: the intended receiver is going to get to that spot.
- 6:28Speaker 1: So then when we look at this wide receiver corps
- 6:30Speaker 1: compared to last year, you have more experience. You have
- 6:33Speaker 1: i would say, more expertise in terms of more route
- 6:35Speaker 1: runners that can create separation. So it's not a coincidence
- 6:39Speaker 1: that not only has Trevor Lawrence developed on his own,
- 6:41Speaker 1: but now he has a better supporting cast and we're
- 6:43Speaker 1: seeing a better, more efficient, more effective offense as a result.
- 6:48Speaker 1: And without Christian Kirk in there last week, Bucky, I
- 6:50Speaker 1: mean you can move the Jones around. He could try
- 6:53Speaker 1: those different spots to the offense, and they worked him
- 6:55Speaker 1: in the slot a good bit. They were outside of
- 6:57Speaker 1: the first play, but that gives them some options. And
- 7:00Speaker 1: that was the idea of his offense, is to move
- 7:02Speaker 1: receivers around. Yeah, oh we lost you. We lost you.
- 7:08Speaker 1: It was the idea of the offense to move it around,
- 7:10Speaker 1: to do more things, to try and be a little
- 7:12Speaker 1: more dynamic and complex, but to really keep it simple.
- 7:15Speaker 1: For the quarterback. So if we can think about this
- 7:17Speaker 1: in simple terms, same concepts, different guys getting to those spots.
- 7:22Speaker 1: So as Trevor Lawrence learns the concepts, he understands that
- 7:25Speaker 1: I'm gonna put a person in the flat down the
- 7:27Speaker 1: line and deep down the field, I just don't know
- 7:30Speaker 1: which guy is going to be there. And so what
- 7:32Speaker 1: it does is it makes it tricky for the defense
- 7:34Speaker 1: to hone in on a player. But for the quarterback,
- 7:37Speaker 1: he knows he's running the same concept. I just got
- 7:39Speaker 1: to throw to the ball to the open man. He's
- 7:40Speaker 1: gonna be a despot. We're supposed to be. And then
- 7:43Speaker 1: of course you you move the quarterback on a play
- 7:46Speaker 1: rolling out. We saw that a lot last week that
- 7:49Speaker 1: that seems to be Trevor's kind of comfort area when
- 7:51Speaker 1: he's on the move throwing. What why is that? Well,
- 7:56Speaker 1: when he's an A level athlete, he's a really good
- 7:58Speaker 1: player on the move. He has big time arm talent,
- 8:01Speaker 1: and this is what he did in college. And so
- 8:03Speaker 1: when you go back and look at how he played
- 8:04Speaker 1: at Clemson, these are some of the things that he
- 8:07Speaker 1: did very very effectively. It is really smart for Doug
- 8:09Speaker 1: Peterson to add this to the mix, because what it
- 8:12Speaker 1: does is it makes the quarterback comfortable. And the quarterback
- 8:15Speaker 1: is comfortable, he's going to be more effective, He's gonna
- 8:18Speaker 1: be more consistent in the offense is going to move
- 8:21Speaker 1: the chains. What we saw last week against the Browns
- 8:23Speaker 1: the first quarter was Trevor Lawrence and his comfort zone,
- 8:27Speaker 1: and that's why the offense was really rolling a couple
- 8:29Speaker 1: of minor mrs for him last week. But but overall
- 8:32Speaker 1: it felt good as an offense. I think Press said
- 8:34Speaker 1: that today just the operation of it was clean. The
- 8:37Speaker 1: play call from the sideline was in and to the
- 8:39Speaker 1: huddle fine, there were no pre snap penalties, and if
- 8:43Speaker 1: you don't have any of that, then you can just
- 8:44Speaker 1: go execute the play. JP it's about it's about really
- 8:51Speaker 1: being able to execute what you want to do. And
- 8:54Speaker 1: given the quarterback enough variety where the defense can't hone
- 8:58Speaker 1: in on where he's at. Is he in the out
- 9:00Speaker 1: of the pocket? Is he on the edges? Is he
- 9:01Speaker 1: executing his own replace r p O s? Are they
- 9:04Speaker 1: putting them on the move to do bootlegs? The Jaguars
- 9:07Speaker 1: have sprinting in all of those different concepts, and so
- 9:10Speaker 1: it just really makes it very very difficult to deal
- 9:12Speaker 1: with the quarterback, but it also allows the quarterback to
- 9:16Speaker 1: have the comfort of being able to do things that
- 9:18Speaker 1: he's very, very uh comfortable with because he did him
- 9:21Speaker 1: in college and he succeeded in playing a style like this.
- 9:24Speaker 1: All right, Bucky will come back in just a moment,
- 9:26Speaker 1: and flipping around to defense. They had pretty good night
- 9:29Speaker 1: at the office as well. In the preseason week number one,
- 9:33Speaker 1: we'll hear from my Caldwell, the defensive coordinator, coming up
- 9:36Speaker 1: a little special teams talk as well, and of course
- 9:39Speaker 1: coming up in just a little bit your social media
- 9:41Speaker 1: questions from earlier today. Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks is
- 9:44Speaker 1: brought to you by Fields Auto Group, Jacksonville. Step up
- 9:47Speaker 1: to Luxury Fields Auto dot Com. It's Huddle Up with
- 9:51Speaker 1: Rocky Brooks on the Jaguars Digital Network. I love it.
- 10:02Speaker 1: I mean when you have a guy like he like
- 10:04Speaker 1: him back there. Uh you know, as far as I'm concerned,
- 10:07Speaker 1: is I trust to make good decisions depending on that
- 10:10Speaker 1: hang time, But yeah, I'm gonna give him the green light.
- 10:13Speaker 1: He's a he's a guy that I trust making great decisions.
- 10:17Speaker 1: He's shown to be an elite return in this league
- 10:19Speaker 1: for a long time. Yeah, we're lucky to have him
- 10:21Speaker 1: and he definitely had the green light to bring him out.
- 10:25Speaker 1: Let's see Farwell the special teams coordinator and welcome back
- 10:28Speaker 1: to huddle up with Bucky Brooks on a Wednesday afternoon.
- 10:31Speaker 1: J P. Shadrick with NFL Network and Jaguars Radio and
- 10:35Speaker 1: Jaguars Television and Fox Sports Radio analysts, Bucky Brooks, did
- 10:41Speaker 1: I leave anything out? Now, you didn't leave anything out.
- 10:44Speaker 1: But because Luna, my dog, is going so crazy, I
- 10:47Speaker 1: feel like she also needs to be on the marquee.
- 10:49Speaker 1: I'm a trying for I'm a try and keeper in
- 10:52Speaker 1: check while the people are running around the house. But
- 10:54Speaker 1: we go try and apologize to all the listeners for
- 10:57Speaker 1: the noise and the chaos that you're in the back of.
- 10:59Speaker 1: Luna is welcome on this program anytime. It will be
- 11:02Speaker 1: the Bucky Brooks Show with Lunar the pit Bull. And
- 11:05Speaker 1: then way down here it's JP and Job. That's fine,
- 11:10Speaker 1: that's fine, we get we get it far. While they're
- 11:14Speaker 1: talking about Jamal Agnew, of course, who's working his way
- 11:16Speaker 1: back from the hip injury. He's been out there a
- 11:19Speaker 1: little bit more. Was in some offensive work today as
- 11:22Speaker 1: wide receiver. That's a good sign. I don't know how
- 11:24Speaker 1: much you need to press him before the season. You
- 11:26Speaker 1: you kind of know what he is. But hey, when
- 11:30Speaker 1: the coordinator says, hey, you've got the green light. I
- 11:33Speaker 1: don't know how many green light guys there are in
- 11:35Speaker 1: the NFL and the return game these days. They're not
- 11:39Speaker 1: many because it's really hard to um return kicks now,
- 11:43Speaker 1: the way the kick offer rules are set up, the
- 11:45Speaker 1: way people are putting an end zone. But Jamal Agnew
- 11:47Speaker 1: is special, and so anytime you have someone who can
- 11:50Speaker 1: take it the distance from anywhere on the field, you
- 11:52Speaker 1: want to give them the autonomy to make decisions based
- 11:55Speaker 1: on their bill needed to to move down the field.
- 11:58Speaker 1: And so when you think about how a returner can
- 12:00Speaker 1: flip the field, can shorten the did the offense has
- 12:04Speaker 1: to go to score touchdown, you want to give those
- 12:06Speaker 1: guys an opportunity to do what they do well. Talking
- 12:09Speaker 1: about a Pro Bowl player, I guy has been All
- 12:10Speaker 1: Pro as a returner. You want to give him a
- 12:13Speaker 1: chance to make big plays. And so I think as
- 12:16Speaker 1: he comes back in acting and as Heathbook gets even
- 12:19Speaker 1: more comfortable with him, you'll see some special things from
- 12:21Speaker 1: the Jaguars kick units designed to hip Jamal Agnew do
- 12:25Speaker 1: what he does well on perimeter. Let's stay on special
- 12:27Speaker 1: teams and the kickers have been under the microscope in
- 12:30Speaker 1: this training camp. Elliott Fry waved injured yesterday, Bucky, So
- 12:35Speaker 1: Ryan Santoso is the only kicker on the roster right now.
- 12:38Speaker 1: He was seven of eight today. I sat there and
- 12:41Speaker 1: counted them in the special teams field goal period at
- 12:43Speaker 1: the start of practice, and then later in a team
- 12:46Speaker 1: period made a couple from about forty five somewhere in
- 12:49Speaker 1: that ballpark. So a good day for him in the
- 12:51Speaker 1: field goal department. And he's got a big leg to
- 12:54Speaker 1: go with it to a lot of this, Bucky. Though, Yes,
- 12:56Speaker 1: the field goals are the most important. You've got to
- 12:58Speaker 1: score the points when they're they air. But it's the
- 13:01Speaker 1: other nuances of place kicking and kicking off. It's directional
- 13:07Speaker 1: kickoffs and yeah, kicking it out of the end zone
- 13:10Speaker 1: when you have to. Uh, that hasn't happened around here
- 13:13Speaker 1: in a while. He's got the leg to do that,
- 13:14Speaker 1: it feels like, but you gotta go find if he's
- 13:18Speaker 1: not for some reason. You've got two more weeks to
- 13:20Speaker 1: figure that out. And then you're scouring some other team's rosters. Yeah,
- 13:24Speaker 1: so this is a position that you're always looking for
- 13:27Speaker 1: the best kicker that you can find, and so you
- 13:29Speaker 1: want to give him every opportunity to solidify the job.
- 13:32Speaker 1: But you also have your scouts looking at every roster
- 13:34Speaker 1: trying to figure out who can shake free, who can
- 13:36Speaker 1: shake free either via cut or maybe by trade acquisition.
- 13:40Speaker 1: And so what the Jaguars front office is doing now
- 13:43Speaker 1: is they're comparing what they have to what's out there
- 13:46Speaker 1: and what could be available. So it's really important that
- 13:48Speaker 1: he continues to kick. Will he continues to show them
- 13:50Speaker 1: that he can be more than just a pH t
- 13:53Speaker 1: field goal booter, that he can directional kick, that he
- 13:56Speaker 1: can put the ball in the coffin corner on kickoffs
- 13:59Speaker 1: or drive it out the end zone. Because if you
- 14:01Speaker 1: can do those things in the kicking game, it gives
- 14:03Speaker 1: your defense and advantage because now you force the opponent
- 14:06Speaker 1: to drive the length of the field. And so it's
- 14:09Speaker 1: one of those things that Doug Peterson, Heath Farewell and
- 14:12Speaker 1: the front office. They'll continue to talk about it because
- 14:15Speaker 1: it's underrated in terms of his value, but it comes
- 14:17Speaker 1: up in big games. If you don't have an A
- 14:19Speaker 1: level kicker, it is really really difficult to win consistently
- 14:22Speaker 1: in this league. Bucky's listened at six ft five fifty
- 14:26Speaker 1: eight pounds. I stood next to him today on the
- 14:28Speaker 1: practice field and he's all of that. Look he's huge.
- 14:34Speaker 1: Watching him up close and personal at the Hall of
- 14:36Speaker 1: Fame game from field level, I mean he is a
- 14:38Speaker 1: moster when it comes the size wise, and then he
- 14:41Speaker 1: has a big lead to boot. The main thing that
- 14:43Speaker 1: you want to see is UH is not about the
- 14:45Speaker 1: distance and those things accuracy, consistency. UH. In my estimation,
- 14:50Speaker 1: when you think about a kicker, you want to be
- 14:51Speaker 1: able to be nails forty yard line and in that
- 14:54Speaker 1: has to be automatic. But now the bonus comes in
- 14:57Speaker 1: from forty to fifty plus yards. If you have someone
- 15:00Speaker 1: who can be a weapon where you get to the
- 15:03Speaker 1: thirty five yard line, you have a reasonable shot of
- 15:05Speaker 1: getting points. That changes the way that you call plays
- 15:08Speaker 1: as an offensive coordinator, and so it's really important to
- 15:11Speaker 1: find someone who can I would say, expand the scoring
- 15:14Speaker 1: zone for the team because then it really gives you
- 15:16Speaker 1: a chance to be a very prolific offense because you
- 15:19Speaker 1: don't have to get as close to be able to
- 15:21Speaker 1: put points on the board. This is how the love
- 15:23Speaker 1: presented by the Fields Auto Group JP Shadrick with Bucky Brooks.
- 15:27Speaker 1: Let's move now to the defensive side of the football. Bucky.
- 15:30Speaker 1: We heard from coordinator Mike cult Well today and I
- 15:33Speaker 1: asked him about Trayvon Walker's progression the number one overall
- 15:36Speaker 1: pick over the last few weeks. Weeks just says, moves development.
- 15:42Speaker 1: Everything you see it, uh, mainly in the run game
- 15:45Speaker 1: right now, you see the physical part of it him
- 15:48Speaker 1: getting off blocks, setting blocks and setting the edge for us.
- 15:51Speaker 1: And then in the past game you see the talent.
- 15:54Speaker 1: You see the tool box start to expand. So he's progressing. Bucky,
- 15:59Speaker 1: how long shouldn't take for that toolbox to expand and
- 16:02Speaker 1: see that on the field. Well, see, that's that's difficult
- 16:07Speaker 1: because like there's an art to being a great pass rusher.
- 16:10Speaker 1: It's not just height, weight, speed, explosiveness. It's about how
- 16:14Speaker 1: do you set up your moves? How do you seekuence
- 16:15Speaker 1: you moves? Do you have hand to hand combat skills?
- 16:19Speaker 1: Are you able to develop a what we call a
- 16:21Speaker 1: fastball didn't have a curve or changeup to go with it?
- 16:24Speaker 1: Can you put up complimentary rush moves to go with
- 16:27Speaker 1: your main one. I will say this, Um, We've talked
- 16:30Speaker 1: about it on the air, and privately, he reminds me
- 16:34Speaker 1: a lot of Jadeveon Clowney, where a lot of the
- 16:35Speaker 1: explosive production is going to come from the run game
- 16:39Speaker 1: tackles for loss, being able to just be disruptive in
- 16:43Speaker 1: terms of just changing the way people want to run.
- 16:45Speaker 1: Maybe they don't want to run to his side, so
- 16:46Speaker 1: they run away from him, but yet he's still able
- 16:49Speaker 1: to track it down from the backside. I believe that's
- 16:51Speaker 1: how he's gonna make his immediate impact. Whether he ever
- 16:54Speaker 1: develops into a double digit pass rusher, I think he
- 16:57Speaker 1: still can show the value as the number one overall
- 16:59Speaker 1: pick by being in a menace against the running game,
- 17:01Speaker 1: because if he's a bully on the edges and you're
- 17:03Speaker 1: not able to run it, then puts the offense in
- 17:06Speaker 1: long yard of situations. And the Jaguars have enough pieces
- 17:09Speaker 1: and Josh Allen and arden Key and the trade vond
- 17:12Speaker 1: Walker been there to play games with those guys to
- 17:15Speaker 1: be able to create a consistent pass for us that
- 17:17Speaker 1: really allows them to win games. Bucky, the Jaguars starting defense,
- 17:21Speaker 1: I think played three series they had a total of
- 17:24Speaker 1: seven yards allowed. And to take away what else do
- 17:28Speaker 1: you take away from their performance in preseason week one?
- 17:33Speaker 1: They got after, they got after it. They got after
- 17:35Speaker 1: it in a major way. The way they were able
- 17:38Speaker 1: to make Deshaun Watson uncomfortable. You could see them. You
- 17:42Speaker 1: can envision them doing that to the other teams. It
- 17:44Speaker 1: is not only just to speed that this team has,
- 17:47Speaker 1: but it's the size and I think when you watch
- 17:49Speaker 1: them up close and personal, you can just see how
- 17:52Speaker 1: big this defense is. And it's kind of like boxing.
- 17:57Speaker 1: There's a reason why you don't put heavyweights in with
- 17:59Speaker 1: middle weights, but us over time, the cumulative effect of
- 18:02Speaker 1: the big blows whears you down. We saw early in
- 18:06Speaker 1: the Cleveland game the size, to speed, the athleticism, it
- 18:09Speaker 1: just overwhelmed them. And then when you have a master
- 18:12Speaker 1: scientists on the sideline kind of throwing all things at you.
- 18:16Speaker 1: When it comes to blitzes and simulated pressures, it is
- 18:19Speaker 1: a lot for a top offense to handle. And we
- 18:22Speaker 1: saw the Brown struggle with all the things that Jaguars
- 18:24Speaker 1: did defensively, like kind of like what Press Taylor was
- 18:28Speaker 1: talking about today. You know, this is the time, you
- 18:30Speaker 1: were gonna see some blitzer and things that you aren't
- 18:33Speaker 1: prepped for either as an offense, and there might have
- 18:35Speaker 1: been a little bit of that, Hey, they they're throwing.
- 18:37Speaker 1: They're throwing blitzers and and things to the Browns that
- 18:40Speaker 1: you just haven't seen yet. Some of that might clean
- 18:44Speaker 1: up a little bit as the season gets going and
- 18:46Speaker 1: scouting reports and things come through. But I think you
- 18:50Speaker 1: have to have that base though before you before you
- 18:53Speaker 1: can even build upon it. At least they have a
- 18:55Speaker 1: little fire in them and and have the size to
- 18:57Speaker 1: go play there what he absolutely had to fire them
- 19:00Speaker 1: because they have these monstrous athletes on the edges and everywhere.
- 19:05Speaker 1: When you look at just the size of the team,
- 19:07Speaker 1: it appears that everybody is a former basketball looking player.
- 19:11Speaker 1: Uh six four, six five. You got guys into the
- 19:15Speaker 1: three tin range and all of them can move. But
- 19:18Speaker 1: more importantly, I would say that the best defenses have
- 19:22Speaker 1: a little edginess to him, right um. Scouts will talk
- 19:25Speaker 1: about this when they're looking at players. Does the player
- 19:28Speaker 1: have a little dog in them, a little relentlessness, a
- 19:31Speaker 1: little uh violence and ferocial ferocity that that allows them
- 19:36Speaker 1: to get after it. I look at this team and
- 19:39Speaker 1: they are a team that comes after it, and so
- 19:41Speaker 1: on defense, they kind of like it a little money,
- 19:44Speaker 1: and so you're gonna see a different style of defense,
- 19:47Speaker 1: and I think a more effective defense because these guys
- 19:49Speaker 1: are kind of bullies on the block. See what Lunar
- 19:52Speaker 1: thinks about that. I think, you know, I think I
- 19:55Speaker 1: wore down. I think I wore down. She's laying in
- 19:57Speaker 1: my feet right now. I think I wore down. She's
- 19:59Speaker 1: all barked up. You know, there's only so many, so many,
- 20:02Speaker 1: so many things you can do to disrupt the podcast.
- 20:05Speaker 1: It's okay now, always welcome here. But hey, got got
- 20:08Speaker 1: it out early and has to regroup. Now let's come
- 20:11Speaker 1: back in a moment. We've got social media questions Bucky. Okay,
- 20:16Speaker 1: I know Bucky's excited about that. We'll hear from you that.
- 20:19Speaker 1: You know, I love that, of course you do. You're
- 20:21Speaker 1: a social media maven of sorts. The Steelers Jaguars game
- 20:26Speaker 1: this Saturday has brought to you by pet Paradise, with
- 20:28Speaker 1: over fifty locations to serve pet fanatics like you nationwide.
- 20:32Speaker 1: Book today at pet paradise dot com. Pet Paradise the
- 20:36Speaker 1: official pet care provider of the Jacksonville Jaguars. It's Huddle
- 20:41Speaker 1: Up with Bucky Brooks on the Jaguars Digital Network. Right. Well,
- 20:56Speaker 1: I think it's a it's a great advantage if we
- 20:58Speaker 1: can um it's uh, you're always kind of at the
- 21:01Speaker 1: mercy of what's available they're right, so like right now, uh,
- 21:05Speaker 1: you know, as we look at it, there's eighty five
- 21:06Speaker 1: players on every single roster. There's not a ton of uh,
- 21:10Speaker 1: you know, players that you really want to add to
- 21:12Speaker 1: your group on the street right now. But as these
- 21:15Speaker 1: cuts come in the next couple of weeks, they'll be
- 21:17Speaker 1: more and more players available. And that's really you know,
- 21:20Speaker 1: the job of our pro department. That's kind of what
- 21:21Speaker 1: we're doing right now, is is stacking those players. How
- 21:24Speaker 1: do they compare to our roster? And when when guys
- 21:27Speaker 1: come available that that can improve us, We're not gonna
- 21:30Speaker 1: be afraid to pull the trigger on that. Ethan Waw,
- 21:34Speaker 1: the assistant general manager for the Jaguars, speaking before practice,
- 21:37Speaker 1: they welcome back. It's Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks, JP
- 21:40Speaker 1: Shadrick with you, and it's Wednesday afternoon. The Jaguars have
- 21:44Speaker 1: another practice tomorrow and then off Friday before the Saturday match.
- 21:48Speaker 1: Up against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and you know Bucky, he
- 21:51Speaker 1: was talking about waiver claims there. That's a position you
- 21:54Speaker 1: don't want to be in all the time. Is number
- 21:57Speaker 1: one in the waiver claims. That means you weren't so
- 22:00Speaker 1: good the year before. But you've got to kind of
- 22:02Speaker 1: use it to your advantage, but with a little bit
- 22:05Speaker 1: of a grain of salt too, right, because there's a
- 22:07Speaker 1: reason that the players on the waiver wire, it's the
- 22:11Speaker 1: previous team didn't want him for whatever reason. So you've
- 22:14Speaker 1: got to kind of balance that. But if there's better
- 22:16Speaker 1: players out there, you gotta go take an opportunity to
- 22:20Speaker 1: go get some better players on the roster. Yeah, you
- 22:23Speaker 1: never turned out an opportunity to improve your roster. So
- 22:26Speaker 1: what Ethan is talking about is just understanding where we
- 22:29Speaker 1: are right now. Right now is not the time to
- 22:31Speaker 1: be crazy aggressive when it comes to the waiver claims
- 22:33Speaker 1: because the guys that are leaking out are the guys
- 22:36Speaker 1: that weren't on the five. You want to wait to
- 22:39Speaker 1: the final cutdown to kind of see who's out there
- 22:42Speaker 1: and available. You also want to wait after the first
- 22:44Speaker 1: week of the season to be in to inquire about
- 22:47Speaker 1: veterans because then you don't you're not on the hook
- 22:50Speaker 1: for fully guaranteeing their salary for the year. And so
- 22:54Speaker 1: it's a work in progress where what you're doing is
- 22:57Speaker 1: you're looking and evaluating to see which guys could shape loose,
- 23:00Speaker 1: and then you're trying to put together a plan in
- 23:02Speaker 1: a strategy for upgrading the lower third of your roster.
- 23:06Speaker 1: The last five to seven spots on the fifty three
- 23:10Speaker 1: should be interchangeable. You're always trying to improve that bottom
- 23:13Speaker 1: third at bottom portion of the roster because the better
- 23:16Speaker 1: you can, the better depth that you have, the more
- 23:20Speaker 1: likely that your team is going to be able to
- 23:21Speaker 1: withstand some adversity that may come due to injuries and
- 23:24Speaker 1: things down the road. But Bucky, that's all scouting. I mean,
- 23:27Speaker 1: that's what the pro personnel guys are looking at, tape
- 23:30Speaker 1: everything over the years, building a database on these players
- 23:34Speaker 1: so when they do come free, whom you can make
- 23:36Speaker 1: the move right away. Yeah. Absolutely, you're you're trying to
- 23:41Speaker 1: not only do it for the here and now, but
- 23:43Speaker 1: you're thinking about free agency. So, for instance, I am
- 23:46Speaker 1: sure Christian Kurt was on the radar for the Jaguars
- 23:49Speaker 1: well before free agent Free agency opened up guys that
- 23:53Speaker 1: spotted them, guys that watched him, they had little reports
- 23:56Speaker 1: on them, and they felt good about what he could
- 23:58Speaker 1: do in a Jaguars uniform. Him in a pro department,
- 24:01Speaker 1: you have uh scouts assigned to every division in the
- 24:06Speaker 1: league and their job is to know the entire roster
- 24:10Speaker 1: of everybody within the division. So when you do see
- 24:13Speaker 1: a waiver claim from say what, for instance, one of
- 24:15Speaker 1: the teams in the a f C East, someone should
- 24:18Speaker 1: know the player should be able to really make a
- 24:20Speaker 1: quick call on whether we need to claim him or
- 24:22Speaker 1: not and make a move based on that information. So um,
- 24:26Speaker 1: it all works together. The better your front office is,
- 24:29Speaker 1: the more likely you can be able to build a
- 24:31Speaker 1: top not to roster. And he talked about this today
- 24:34Speaker 1: to Ethan Wall did um, they're still in the process
- 24:37Speaker 1: that we're getting those processes in place and scouting and
- 24:43Speaker 1: who reports to who and when and coaching having them
- 24:45Speaker 1: involved as a certain point that that takes a little
- 24:48Speaker 1: time to implement those things. It does take a little
- 24:51Speaker 1: time to implement it, and you do want to rely
- 24:53Speaker 1: on coaches because some of these coaches know some of
- 24:55Speaker 1: the players from their previous stops. UH So those guys
- 24:58Speaker 1: already know the system is a familiarity and trust between
- 25:02Speaker 1: the coach and the player, and so you're really quick
- 25:04Speaker 1: to bring those guys in because you are automatically know
- 25:07Speaker 1: what you're getting. And sometimes it can help accelerate the
- 25:10Speaker 1: development of the team when it comes to learning the
- 25:13Speaker 1: offensive or defensive scheme. Yeah, but it's a work in
- 25:16Speaker 1: progress to Coaches in front office are always working together.
- 25:19Speaker 1: They always have these conversations about how can they make
- 25:22Speaker 1: the team better. Coaches are always willing to give in,
- 25:25Speaker 1: so I wish we had a little more of this,
- 25:27Speaker 1: a little more of that, and the front office is
- 25:29Speaker 1: sometimes leaning over what kind of player is that player?
- 25:32Speaker 1: But it's a cooperation. Trent Barky and Doug Peterson at
- 25:36Speaker 1: the top of it, and then everybody else follows suit.
- 25:39Speaker 1: It's hoddle up with Bucky Brooks J P. Shadrick with
- 25:41Speaker 1: you in time for social media questions. Bucky your favorite
- 25:45Speaker 1: part of every week? I love it? I do too.
- 25:49Speaker 1: We put out the Cats signal today. Here's the best
- 25:51Speaker 1: we came up with at Gavin b A five seven,
- 25:54Speaker 1: seven zero, eight to eight zero. With the release of
- 25:59Speaker 1: Malcolm Brown, do you expect Balky to sign someone or
- 26:02Speaker 1: someone to step up currently on the roster. K Malcolm
- 26:04Speaker 1: Brown released this afternoon officially after practice. Buckett, what do
- 26:09Speaker 1: you think, I think they feel good about the group
- 26:13Speaker 1: that they have. Um, if there's someone at the bottom
- 26:15Speaker 1: of roster that can add some depth, yeah, maybe, But
- 26:18Speaker 1: when you look at Photocosi and some of the other
- 26:21Speaker 1: guys that play inside, where Robertson Harris playing on the inside,
- 26:25Speaker 1: they have more than enough to be able to get
- 26:27Speaker 1: it done. Now it's about trying to see NSS. How
- 26:31Speaker 1: are we gonna use r and Key? Can you play
- 26:34Speaker 1: inside on early downs? It was he's strictly just a
- 26:36Speaker 1: third down inside pass rusher. All of those combinations of
- 26:41Speaker 1: players along the front seven they factor into whether the
- 26:44Speaker 1: Jaguars make a move to add another defensive alignment or
- 26:48Speaker 1: if they just kind of stand pat and say, hey,
- 26:50Speaker 1: let's see what it looks like in the second preseason game,
- 26:54Speaker 1: Let's see if we can get away with what we have,
- 26:57Speaker 1: and then just wait for the right opportunity to present itself.
- 27:00Speaker 1: And they've still got some time. They don't have to
- 27:02Speaker 1: do it tomorrow. They're not kicking off in Washington tomorrow.
- 27:04Speaker 1: Bucky last I checked got a couple of weeks, A
- 27:08Speaker 1: couple of weeks, a couple of three weeks. All right,
- 27:10Speaker 1: next question, Dary eleven. When you see what the Bengals
- 27:14Speaker 1: accomplished last year, one in your mind needs to happen
- 27:16Speaker 1: in order for this team to eventually you'd be competing.
- 27:19Speaker 1: In addition, what pieces need to be at it? Where
- 27:22Speaker 1: do you start here, Bucky? What this stuff? Because the
- 27:26Speaker 1: Bengals everything feeled right for them last year. They got
- 27:30Speaker 1: hot at the right time. Some of the teams faltered
- 27:32Speaker 1: so they didn't have to necessarily navigate the road around them,
- 27:36Speaker 1: and then once they started believing that they could win,
- 27:39Speaker 1: they started to win at a high level. So for
- 27:41Speaker 1: the Jaguars, I think the first part of the season
- 27:43Speaker 1: is everything. If they can hang in the race. You're
- 27:46Speaker 1: talking about being close to five in the middle of
- 27:49Speaker 1: the season when they take the boy, oh, I think
- 27:51Speaker 1: you feel good about getting hot down the stretch. The
- 27:53Speaker 1: main thing that they have to do is continue to
- 27:56Speaker 1: build each and every day to be a more consistent team.
- 28:00Speaker 1: Because if they can be consistent at whatever style to play,
- 28:03Speaker 1: whatever it is that you're doing, it gives the coach
- 28:06Speaker 1: is something that they can hang their head on when
- 28:08Speaker 1: the game is kind of Hairer getting out of whack.
- 28:10Speaker 1: So it's really important to identify the identity of the team,
- 28:14Speaker 1: who the best playmakers are, and how the best utilize
- 28:17Speaker 1: those playmakers early in the year, including the preseason. Alright,
- 28:21Speaker 1: our next question from producer Sherry is Sue coming? What
- 28:26Speaker 1: are the chances? Well, this was after, of course, the
- 28:29Speaker 1: releasive Malcolm Brown and Dominican. Sue is a free agent, Bucky,
- 28:35Speaker 1: he is a free agent. I would love to have
- 28:37Speaker 1: him come play for the Jaguars. I just don't see
- 28:39Speaker 1: a scenario in which he that would make sense for him.
- 28:42Speaker 1: He is what they call ring chasing, and I just
- 28:45Speaker 1: don't know right now if the Jaguars in the spot
- 28:47Speaker 1: to offer him something where he can say, oh, yeah,
- 28:50Speaker 1: I'll definitely take a dis kind of rate to come
- 28:52Speaker 1: and chase a ring with you guys. Not quite yet.
- 28:55Speaker 1: Maybe they get that way uh sometimes this season, But
- 28:58Speaker 1: right now, I think I hold off on bringing veteran
- 29:00Speaker 1: and I kind of sit and wait and see who's
- 29:02Speaker 1: the best of the best to come out, and then
- 29:04Speaker 1: I'm going to get after that. He's thirty five, right,
- 29:07Speaker 1: and Dominican, Yeah, come on, that's five year olds. I'm
- 29:13Speaker 1: just saying, I mean he's been around a while, That's
- 29:15Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Yeah, a long time. Yeah, that's that.
- 29:21Speaker 1: It's amazing. He's thirty five. He's been at this very long.
- 29:24Speaker 1: That old. That whole thing with Aaron Rodgers seems like
- 29:26Speaker 1: a long time ago. It seems like a long time ago.
- 29:31Speaker 1: It's the news cycle seven three, six o five, Like
- 29:34Speaker 1: it's hard to keep over. What's the hottest story that
- 29:37Speaker 1: was a while ago though? No matter what? Alright, final
- 29:39Speaker 1: question the underscore Jackspan six on five. What is the
- 29:42Speaker 1: latest on Leabiscus and all Jr? Is it crucially get
- 29:46Speaker 1: some preseason action or doesn't matter yet with this coaching staff.
- 29:51Speaker 1: You know, he had a little more work today, Bucky
- 29:53Speaker 1: with the team. That's a good sign that maybe he'll
- 29:55Speaker 1: get a little time this week. Oh, he has to
- 29:58Speaker 1: get on the field. They have to see him because
- 30:00Speaker 1: they got to figure out what they can do with
- 30:02Speaker 1: him right now. He's a body, beautiful kid that looks
- 30:06Speaker 1: the part, looks like he can do everything, dominate all
- 30:09Speaker 1: facets of the thing. But you know, look, man, it's
- 30:14Speaker 1: it's tough. You want to get him on the you
- 30:15Speaker 1: want to get him on the field so you can
- 30:16Speaker 1: be able to plan to see how you're gonna rotate
- 30:19Speaker 1: him in Easy the fourth, Easy the fifth. Canny play
- 30:22Speaker 1: on special teams as a returner. Early in the off season,
- 30:24Speaker 1: he volunteered to maybe catch kicks and and do some things.
- 30:28Speaker 1: You gotta get him on the field to see where
- 30:29Speaker 1: he's at because if it's time to move on, you
- 30:31Speaker 1: want to be able to see that and do that
- 30:33Speaker 1: by seeing it in preseason games, not by just speculating
- 30:36Speaker 1: on what a player is on the practice field when
- 30:39Speaker 1: he's healthy. What are some limitations of his game, Bucky,
- 30:43Speaker 1: Like what would what would you say? Not quite red
- 30:45Speaker 1: flag that's too aggressive, But what are some things that
- 30:49Speaker 1: are lacking? If not a premier or polished route runner. Uh,
- 30:55Speaker 1: he is what I call a castball and run specialists
- 30:59Speaker 1: basically want to put him on the mood. You want
- 31:01Speaker 1: to give it to him and let him go roll
- 31:02Speaker 1: with it. I don't think he's gonna give you anything,
- 31:05Speaker 1: um anything and in the outside to run game. And
- 31:09Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna be a guy that
- 31:12Speaker 1: can really factor in as a primary where receiver that
- 31:15Speaker 1: can get it done. And so I really had trying
- 31:17Speaker 1: to carve out a role. In my mind, I think
- 31:19Speaker 1: the best role would be if you could utilize him
- 31:21Speaker 1: like Deebo Samuel. But we've been talking about that for
- 31:24Speaker 1: the last two years and we haven't seen the materialize.
- 31:26Speaker 1: I wonder is this coaching staff invested in him enough
- 31:30Speaker 1: to go through that exercise of how can we get
- 31:33Speaker 1: him the ball? What's the best way to get him
- 31:35Speaker 1: the ball? Here's how he's going to help us improve.
- 31:38Speaker 1: I just don't know yet because we haven't seen him
- 31:39Speaker 1: on the field. The only way to find that out
- 31:41Speaker 1: is to, hey, guess what, have the football in your
- 31:43Speaker 1: hands on the field right. So we'll see if he
- 31:48Speaker 1: gets some action this week. Bucky one more segment. We'll
- 31:51Speaker 1: come back and get our final thoughts ahead of this
- 31:53Speaker 1: preseason Week two games. The Pittsburgh Steelers come to town

- 32:42Speaker 1: It's the way of the world. You're You're far more
- 32:45Speaker 1: active than I am. I doubt that highly. You're more
- 32:49Speaker 1: You you paint the pictures, really, yeah, you you paint
- 32:55Speaker 1: a picture like sometimes, like you give me the sunrise
- 32:59Speaker 1: from training camp, saw that. You know what the feels
- 33:02Speaker 1: look like all the times. You give me the action
- 33:05Speaker 1: and who's who's doing what, all the stuff. So I
- 33:08Speaker 1: can't tweet. I just did and read. But then when
- 33:11Speaker 1: you tweet it goes to like two million people. That's
- 33:14Speaker 1: kind of a big deal. Well, I mean I can't
- 33:18Speaker 1: have to follow it. I just try following and give
- 33:23Speaker 1: them what they want. That's but you do. You always
- 33:26Speaker 1: deliver when you tweet. You don't always deliver. You always
- 33:30Speaker 1: if I'm in a good mood, I'm not feeling punchy,
- 33:33Speaker 1: I'm good punch Really you're a little punchy. Sometimes it
- 33:37Speaker 1: don't need to be on the Twitter when you're doing that.
- 33:39Speaker 1: That's a good idea. Sometimes I try and put it
- 33:41Speaker 1: in the drawer, try and put the phone in the dray,
- 33:43Speaker 1: leave it alone for a little bit, good idea, let
- 33:46Speaker 1: it go. It's you never gonna the old rule. Never
- 33:49Speaker 1: go to sleep angry, never never tweet angry either. Yeah.

- 33:54Speaker 1: to be don't. Don't want to be emotional, not at all. Hey, uh,
- 33:58Speaker 1: speaking of emotions. That Steals are coming to town. That'll
- 34:01Speaker 1: raise some emotions. Y. It's the preseason though. It's the

- 34:15Speaker 1: You'll be on television again Bucky with the Brian Saxon
- 34:19Speaker 1: for the game this Saturday at the Bank. How long
- 34:23Speaker 1: will these guys go? And what do you want to
- 34:25Speaker 1: see from the Jags offense and defense? You know, and
- 34:29Speaker 1: yesteryear this will be the game where the first team
- 34:32Speaker 1: would come and play the first two quarters and come
- 34:35Speaker 1: out of halftime because you want to have that experience
- 34:38Speaker 1: I think would be a mix. I think we may
- 34:39Speaker 1: see Trevoring him go deep into the second quarter to
- 34:43Speaker 1: get a four rhythm, uh, to make sure that you
- 34:45Speaker 1: get enough contact and tackling in UM. When we talked
- 34:48Speaker 1: to coach Peterson early in the preseason, he talked about,
- 34:51Speaker 1: we got plenty of days to get guys right. Uh.
- 34:54Speaker 1: When you think about the last preseason game, the length
- 34:56Speaker 1: of time from that last preseason game to the regular
- 34:59Speaker 1: season an opener is a long time. And so I
- 35:02Speaker 1: think they may play. I think they may have a
- 35:04Speaker 1: good little rhythm now if it's going well. Uh. It
- 35:07Speaker 1: may be in a private griev you extent, but I
- 35:09Speaker 1: think we'll see them at least into the middle of
- 35:12Speaker 1: the second quarter and maybe even past half time. All right,
- 35:16Speaker 1: sounds good to me. Everybody's looking forward to that. Tickets available.
- 35:20Speaker 1: They're going pretty quick though, from what I understand, So
- 35:22Speaker 1: I should be a nice night hopefully at the Bank
- 35:24Speaker 1: on Saturday, and Bucky will look forward to seeing you.
- 35:27Speaker 1: And then it's off to Atlanta next week. Man, let's
- 35:30Speaker 1: get after this Pittsburgh. Still, the game is a big
- 35:32Speaker 1: one because they will attest the toughness for sure. So
