• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the latest Jaguars news with the head coach. That Doug
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Peterson Show starts right now.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: The Doug Peterson Show presented by Fresh from Florida from
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: the Hyundai Studios at the Miller Electric Center JP Shadwick
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: with former Jags defensive lineman Jeff Logoman and current Jaguars
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: head coach Doug Peterson. Hey, coach, what's up? Hey guys?
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: How you doing nothing? Just getting ready for the Colts?
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, here we are. It's week six. Let's review a
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: little bit of the London trip. Obviously, this team left
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Jacksonville one and two with a bad taste in his
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: mouth after that Texans game, and now you come back
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: three and two with a totally different feeling around it.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: So the resilience of the team to figure some things
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: out on the road and play two tough teams in
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: London and get two wins, that says a lot at
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: this group.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, if you remember, I said it might be a
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: good time for us to get out of out of
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: Jacksonville at the time, and those ten days were good
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: to us, you know, and and obviously the two wins
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: as we went over there to do is just to
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: come away with two wins and and against two good,
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: two good football teams. But you know, I thought it
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: really kind of brought the team a little bit closer,
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: kind of maybe focus the guys just a little bit,
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: you know, made it.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: I think a little more sense of urgency of what we're.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: Trying to do and just try to eliminate some of
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: the bs that was happening in in those in those games.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: And it wasn't perfect.
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: I mean, there were still some some mistakes you know, made,
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: but to be able to go over there, spend ten days,
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: get two good wins, especially the last one against Buffalo,
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: which is a really good top AFC team and and
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: everybody has them as a Super Bowl contender, you know,
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: just my hats off to our guys and the way
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: they the way they handled the trip.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: The thing that really stood out to me was you
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: go back to that Texans game and look at the
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: energy on the sideline and then compare the energy on
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: the sideline at the Falcons game then the Bills game.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: Vastly different. I mean not even close.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: And it's something that I addressed with the team and
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: they really embraced it, you know. And I challenge the
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: leadership committee and they embraced it, and they embraced it
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: with the team, and you know, so it's just something
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: that that I saw, you know, and this week, you know,
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: back in town, I made a point of saying, hey,
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: guys that here's the noticeable differences in our football team
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: right now. And of course winning helps that, but but
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: just having that energy, guys engage in the football game.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: They're focused on their jobs and doing, you know, what
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: they need to do. And and but yeah, that was
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: the biggest noticeable improvement that I saw in the last
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: two weeks.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: So, Doug, it's unprecedented. Obviously, the Jaguars are the first
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: team to play two games in London, so this is
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: kind of uncharted water coming off the trip, moving ahead
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: now and how do you handle the schedule and the
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: timing and the jet lag everything that comes with that.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: It's it's one thing if it's a three day trip,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: it's a ten day trip. So what are your plans
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: for this week? How has it gone?
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: It's gone really well.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: You know, I gave the players Monday and Tuesday, you know,
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: just to kind of relax and kind of get their
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: body clocks back to East Coast time. They got a
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: couple lifts in and and got their treatment.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: And all that kind of stuff. I didn't do anything
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: football with them.
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: I just wanted them to have those two days to
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: to kind of get their bodies and minds right. And
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: then you know, on Wednesday, it was just a matter
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: of I still wanted to get a good practice in there.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: I increased the walkthrough in.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: The morning and then and then back down on the
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: practice just a little bit to try it again, to
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: try to get their bodies back. And you know, Thursday
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: is a full speed.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: Ramp up day and really a normal day.
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: Friday is a normal day, and then and then we
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: get ready ready to go on Sunday.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: The thing that also stood out to me over in
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: London was, besides the energy, was the complimentary of football.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Your offense would do something maybe not so good, the
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: defense would bail them out. Okay, special teams played a
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: key role at times. How do you keep that ball
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: rolling and how do you keep that kind of at
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: the forefront of their minds that hey, look, this is
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: why we're winning.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: You know, I really felt like the defense kept us
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: in both of those football games. Offense kind of jumped
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: out early in the in the Buffalo and really in
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: the Atlanta game as well, but the defense kind of
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: when there was a lull, the defense kept it, kept it,
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: you know, kept us in the game and kept us going.
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: And we had some really good special teams plays in there,
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: and you know, we have to do better. I feel
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: like we can do better. In the punt return game.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: We got to get Agnew going a little bit better
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: and and those some areas right there. But you know,
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: it's what I told the team this week is like, listen,
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: we had great energy. We played that complimentary role. We
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: can't leave it in the UK. We got to bring
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: it back to Jacksonville and got to bring it back here.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: So that's the challenge, right is to you know, get
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: our bodies and our minds right back to back to
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: normal you know, East Coast time, but at the same
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: time still create that energy that we that we displayed.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Over and over in London.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: You mentioned the defense kind of bailed us out a
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: little bit in those two games. I don't know if
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: I've seen a stretch of two games in Jaguars history
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: where the tackling has been as good as it's been,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: especially against a premiere back in b Jhon Robinson. And
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: then you face a Buffalo Bills team that hadn't been
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: known for running the ball, but this year they're running
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: the ball as good as anybody, and you guys completely
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: shut them down, shut them down, and we're able to
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: put a lot of emphasis on just rushing the pastor
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's got to be critical.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: I think a lot of credit goes to the players. Again,
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: it just goes back to just that the awareness and
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: where we were, you know, as a football team, and
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: we needed to improve. You know, I challenge the coaches
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: obviously to hold you know, start with us right, Start
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: with the coaches, hold ourselves accountable.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: How are we teaching certain things?
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: And then and then hold the players accountable, right, And
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: then they embraced it. And it's just about sticking sticking
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: to what we do, sticking to our process, right. It's
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: it's just trusting that and making sure we're doing that
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: day in and day out. Let's not look past the
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: week we're in. Let's not look you know, to say
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: the San Francisco game, or you know, we got to Baltimore.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: Those games are gonna come, but just let's focus on
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: this week and one week at a time. And the
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: guys really did in embrace that, and I think that's
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: the difference to where we are today sitting here three and.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Two head coach Doug Peterson with us on the Doug
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Peterson Show. On the offensive side, Trevor Lawrence just continues
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: to display that toughness and standing in there and occasionally
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: taking hits but still making throws and smart decision making,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: not putting the ball really in harm's way. And I
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: think you see the offense respond to that too at times.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: The touchdown to Zay Jones back of the end zone,
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: he took one right in the chops, still stood in
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: there and made the throw. But that kind of sets
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: the tone for the offense too.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: It really does.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: He's playing as good as I've seen him play, you know,
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: but we still have those hiccups, right We had those
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: two red zone turnovers and those sack fumbles that we
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: just can't have. Those are points. Those are at least
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: six points right there or more. And those are the
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: things that we that have kind of hindered us a
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: little bit offensively from really getting over the hump and
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: kind of exploding just a little bit and scoring more
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: red zone touchdowns. But I say that to say, you know,
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: Trevor is playing extremely tough. He's using his legs more,
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: which is picking up some big third downs. We you know,
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: we had like eighteen third downs against Buffalo. A lot
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: of those were third and ten eleven that we were
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: able to convert.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: So protection is holding up and the receivers are getting
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: into the right spots, Trevor seeing the field, delivering the football,
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: and you know, even sometimes just checking the ball down
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: to Travis or to you know, to Evan underneath and
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: then they go get the first down. So those are
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: all the things, the complimentary pieces that keep your offense
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: on the field. They help your defense, and then conversely
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: the defense is playing, you know, playing lights out right now.
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: A huge takeaway, Darius Williams, huge takeaway in that game,
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: you know, on Sunday. And then like as you mentioned,
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: the tackling has really improved, you know, over the last
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: couple of.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Weeks, and Atn's run the ball really well. I mean,
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: that's that's got to be a big part of it,
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: because you know, you're still trying to find your rhythm
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: on offense. You can say that over the last couple
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: of weeks, and it's a lot easier to find rhythm
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: when you've got a running game like the way Travis
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: had over there in London.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was really good to see our run game
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: sort of explode and take off. And the credit to
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: the offensive line obviously, you know Etn with the way
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: he's been running. He had another tough, tough running back
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: and just you know somebody that just it's hard to
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: bring down. And it's just all I think a credit
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: to the offseason and training camp and how hard he
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: worked to get himself better and to improve as a
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: running back. And then of course the offensive line, you know,
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: doing their part. Two we're getting we're creating more surge
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: and more push on the defensive line.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: All right, let's move it forward now the Indianapolis Colts.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: Second time in six weeks you've seen this team. Obviously,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: the quarterback has changed coming into this matchup, but what
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: else is different? What else stands out about the Colts
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: And what kind of a challenge is it or an
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: opportunity is it to face the team twice in six weeks.
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: Well, there's a lot of familiarity obviously with with this
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: football team. You know, the second time around, there's not
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: a lot of secrets. Obviously, still have to be prepared
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: for the unknown. But you know, this team is playing
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: extremely well. They've got a little momentum too, and and
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: you know, Gardner's Gardner is the type of guy that
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: can really spark an offense and and really ignite this team.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: And and and you know.
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: Anthony Richardson was doing some good things, and you know,
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: it's just unfortunate, you know, the injury and all that.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: But it defensively again.
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: If you talk about a unit that's keeping this team
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: in football games, it's this defense.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: And this is a really good, solid defense.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: And they do have some injuries on the on the perimeter,
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: in the corner spots and places like that. I think
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: they're gonna get you know, fifty three back this week
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: and and uh fifty one pay I think that you know,
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: both those guys practice. But the defense is playing really
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: good and and offense is doing what they what they do,
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: and you know, obviously the running back is back. So
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: you know, here's here's the kind of a two headed
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: monster back there with these two runners, that is going
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: to be a big challenge for our defense.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: A lot is made about those two backs, but you
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: mentioned the spark about Minshew, and I totally agree with
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: you because he's got more experience and I think the
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: receivers will even probably have a bounce their step knowing
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: the guy can get them the ball. But really, when
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: you turn on the film, the offensive line of the
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Colts really seems to be the driving force of that
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: football team, at least on the offensive side of the ball.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: They're playing really well.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're playing better, you know, and the knock was
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: probably preseason was probably gonna be the offensive line how
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: they were going to hold up. But these guys are
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: playing sound and and you know, again, like you said,
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: Gardner is the type of guy that's going to get
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: the ball out of his hand. He's going to know
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: exactly where to go with the football. You know, those
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: receivers are going to have to pay attention because the
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: ball could come their way at any at any particular time.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: And he's athletic enough to extend plays and see the field.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: I mean, he's just he's that type of type of
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: kind of that gritty quarterback that that can really spark
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: your offense. So it's a challenge. It's an AFC South opponent.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: You know, they're two and one in the division. We're
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: one and one in the division, and and you know
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: it's gonna be a good matchup on Sunday.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: First place on the line in the AFC South and
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: we will see. Yeah, well it is.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: This early in the season, I mean week six and
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: it's it's already for the AFC South.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: It's great.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: I love it a lot of football and of course
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: we'll see you on Sunday. Coach appreciate it. Head coach
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Doug Peterson with us the Coach Shaguars Game presented by Hyundai.

• 11:23
  Speaker 2: You've always won it. It's your journey own every mile
• 11:26

• 11:30
  Speaker 2: This is the Doug Peterson Show on the Jaguars Radio Network.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: The Doug Peterson Show, presented by Fresh from Florida, continues
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: from the Hyundai Studios at the Miller Electric Center in
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: downtown Jacksonville. JP Shadwick, Jeff Logman and our thanks to
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: head coach Doug Peterson joining us at the opening segment
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: each and every week. Last week went up to Hanbury
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: Manor and got with the coach and brought it back
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: for the show at the pub down in London. Couldn't
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: bring the coach with me. I'm sure he would have
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: liked to have come to the pub. Yes, and he might
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: have yes, especially since the beer was really cold. They
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: had business to attend to up north though, and the
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: food was good. Food was great.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: Ye.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: So we had this show there last week we were
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: back here at the middle of Electric Center. So with
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: no food, no no, and when we were able to
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: do those shows with Guinness on the table, Yeah, that
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: needs to be a staple. I think, how good is that?
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Pretty darn good that I did to pull a line
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: from frank Frankie that I wondered where that came from.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: It's a happy coach. I mean, this team played well
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: in London, I mean, and they were not playing well
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: going He called it bs that was going on in games.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: He just said that in the Texans game. That is
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: a strong statement from the head coach to just call
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: it like he sees it. And I think he told
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: the team that and they went out there and responded
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: two times in London. Yeah, they did a good job.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: And I think sometimes you you will always say, hey,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: this is what the team needed to get to get
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: away to bond and all that kind of stuff, just
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: because I mean, you know, it's it's part of the narrative.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: What do you go say, you know, this is the
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: last thing we need to do is go over seas.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: So I think as a coach, you're always gonna kind
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: of reflect back on things in a positive fashion and
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: also looking forward thinking about things in a positive fashion,
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: because that's that's the hang your delt, that's what you
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: have to do. Yeah. So look at it was an
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: awesome couple of weeks for the Jaguars just from the
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: standpoint of look, you got two wins and in London,
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: which was tremendous. And and look, I know the Jaguars
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: have this initiative over there in London and it's awesome
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: to win over there because it continues to build the
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: brand over there, which is also good for the city
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: and uh, and to be able to come home with
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: a winning record is tremendous. I mean, that's you know,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: because the last time you when you left here, what's
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: such a good feeling after that Houston Texans game. Awful,
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: just awful. And now you hope that this team can
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: perform well in front of its home fan base and
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: and take control of the division. See I get a
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: little I roll from him that it makes sense it's
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: week six, but it is. It doesn't matter, JPM with you.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: This is uh. You get two against the Colts. That's
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: a big step. The Colts are two and one in
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: the division. Okay, the Jaguars are one and one in
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: the division. Every year, when when you establish goals as
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: a team in the National Football League, goal number one,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: win the division. That's always number one. That's the goal
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: because if you win the division, you're going to the dance,
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: Okay and uh, and that's positive. So I think it's
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: exciting that this football team got those two wins. And
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: and I don't think that it can be overstated the
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: importance of this game. And look, I know it's early,
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: and I know there's a lot of games to go,
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: but uh and I and I don't think that the
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Colts are going to be like a long term contender.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: I don't. But if they're not, Okay, and you are
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: who you thought you were, then you win this game,
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: you win these games. Kind of like the same thing
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: we said before the Texans game. It's sounds familiar, right,
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: but this is a this is a better team, which
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: I'm it's crazy to say that because the Texans performed
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: very well. Texans almost pulled out a win last week. Right, Yeah,
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: like the quarterbacks playing well, I don't think you sort
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: of pick yet he didn't. He hadn't thrown a pick yet.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: Who do they play this past game? Atlanta? Uh? Yeah,
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: had him beat at the end, right, and uh uh
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: Young ho Ku? Is that Young waykup? Young Wayku? Their
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: kicker ended up kicking a game winner. Well, I mean
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: Stroud led, Yeah, they led the drive got down there.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: And it's a very unique way of pronouncing that name.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: I remember when I was writing it phonetically down prior
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: to the Atlanta Falcons game. I had to have like
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: a cheat sheet for it on my thing because I
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: was like, gosh, you wouldn't think that that would be
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: the way that you pronounce it. But okay. Jacks fans

  Speaker 2: they've been doing lately, and the challenge this week against

  Speaker 2: Gardner Minshew Minshew Mania and the Colts running game as well.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: It is the Doug Peterson Show on Jaguars Radio. Welcome
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: back to The Doug Peterson Show, presented by Fresh from
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Florida J P. Shadrick with Jeff Lageman at Coach Doug
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Peterson in the opening segment each and every week. Thanks
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: for joining us on the Jaguars Radio Network and on
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: Jaguars dot Com and on Jaguars YouTube. We're everywhere. It's
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: Week six, the Colts and the Jaguars coming up, and
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: that should be a fine match up here at the Bank.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: The Jaguars defense playing well obviously, really slowed down the
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: Falcons in the Wimbley game and then against the second
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: best scoring offense in the NFL, how about that shut
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: down the Bills to twenty points and a lot of
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: those late came in averaging forty one a game in
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: their previous three games, and the Jaguars defense hold them
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: to twenty and in reality should have been a little
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: bit less than that. The Bills were able to put
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: that one drive together and was it like four plays bam, touchdown.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: You're like, what of the end? You know, with the
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: they're down to scores and get down the field and
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: it was four place, four place, seventy five yards and
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Josh Allen was the one who he ran in, right. Yeah,
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: they kind of pushed him in there, and they pushed
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: him in and that was that. That gave him his
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: third rushing touchdown in as many games. But yeah, but
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: credit to this defense. It was real quick because after
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: you look at that score on side kick, that's right, okay,
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: And you know we're talking in the broadcasts and and
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: so I'm looking at the the onside kick return team
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: for the Jaguars, and typically what you do in that
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: situation is you have a designated recovery guy. Okay that
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: what they call him, is that the official title. I
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: don't know a recovery guy. I don't really know what
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: his job title it is, but it's somebody that has
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: very good hands and you trust on and they are
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: not scared. Yeah right, okay, because you got some dudes
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: coming at you. And the guy on that side of
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: the field is Evan Ingram, highly trustworthy individual. Okay. If
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills had lined up a guy literally just
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: inside in bounds of the white line sideline and ran
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: straight down in bounds of the sideline, they would have
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: recovered the ball because it bounced perfectly. The second bounce,
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: perfect bounce, and it was shocking that the Bills didn't
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: have anybody toe tap in the line. You know that
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: could have been there, I mean, fortunately for the Jaguars,
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: but that's something that I think that the Jaguars will
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: be taking a very strong look at, and that whoa,
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: we have a hole right there that we need to
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: make sure that we fix that. And I'm not saying
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: that the Bills could have done anything with it in
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: the minimum amount of time that was there. But for
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: place seventy five yards they score a touchdown or whatever
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: it was, I mean, okay, no time left. Yeah, they
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: still did it. Got to make sure you get all
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: of those little things buttoned up. Jack's defense though overall,
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, coming into this season, they took a lot
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: of heat. Mike Coldwell took a lot of heat. A
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: little bit of heat. I mean they because they couldn't
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: get you know, the whole stick was, hey, you're not
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: getting to the quarterback and the pass runner. People were
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: wondering could they get to the quarterback because and could
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: they cover because I mean and the Jaguars. Look, the
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: Jaguars coaching staff was not shy about talking about that
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: they needed to get better. They needed to find out
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: who's going to play Nickel, they needed to find out
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: the depth in the secondary, They needed to find out
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: some of these players that were going to be able
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: to help them out as pass rushers. And so they
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: were hoping to develop some of these guys from within.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: So so I don't think it was any anything that
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: was under or unfair or anything of that nature, because
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: a lot of that's just speculation. Anyway, you're trying to
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: figure out, Okay, can they do it? And I still
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: believe that there are some questions, but there's always questions
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: with every team. But I think this Jaguars defense has
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: done a fantastic job. Look, Trey Herndon has been really
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: good so far this year, really good so far this year.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: The thing that I'm also excited about here with this
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: defense is that they're getting ready to get some reinforcements back,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: and they've already gotten some. Okay, Antonio Johnson, this young
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: rookie safety slash corner, slash nickel, slash athlete slash special teamer, gunner.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: This guy is going to be a boost for this
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: football team. You're getting Smoot back this week. You're getting
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: Devin Lloyd back. Okay, Devon Hamilton has a window. Twenty
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: one day window is now opening back up. I mean,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: these are all positives for this football team in ways
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: that they can get better from within. And instead of
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: having guys that you're losing because of injury, this team
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: is getting guys back from injury. That's a positive. Plenty
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: More ahead, we'll get into this Jaguars offensive line and
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: where it stands going against this Colts front seven. A
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: good group up front for the Indianapolis defense. That's next
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: on The Doug Peterson Show on the Jaguars Radio Network.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: Welcome back The Doug Peterson Show, presented by Fresh from Florida,
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: JP Shaddwick, Jeff Logman. Thanks to Doug Peterson, of course,
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: the Jaguars head coach, joining us each and every show
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: at the start of the show, five o'clock along the network.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: Lad you're with us. The Jaguars and the Colts coming up.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: So okay, going into the game last week, the questions
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: were about this Jaguars offensive line. Cam Robinson made his
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: season debut last week at left tackle. Had an elbow issue,
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: but back into the game. He's on the injury report
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: this week, but he's been practicing full. That's a good thing.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: Walker Little moved to left guard last week. He left
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: the game with a knee issue and did not return.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: He has not practiced so far this week. Doug Peterson
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: said earlier today or earlier this week at Wednesday and
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: is a press conference that if Little can't go, then
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: Tyler Shatley would probably go back in at left guard.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: That would be the question there overall up front, where
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: do you stand on the offensive line with all those
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: moving parts? Well, I thought, first of all, we'll start
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: with Walker Little moving to guard. I think he did
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: a good job while he was in there. It wasn't
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: a long time though, No, it wasn't. It wasn't a
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: long time, but he did a good job, very similar
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: to the way that he played in the preseason with
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: the reps that he got at guard there and look
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: for a guy that's never played that position. Even more
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: impressive ever, he had never ever right exactly except in
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: training camp. You know, I don't know if I think
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: you could probably have a conversation or a debate about
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: what's the best to move for this team. I mean,
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: was would it have been best to leave Walker little
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: left tackle and play Cam at left guard or was
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: it the best move to have Cam at left tackle
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: and move Walker to left guard. I think that that's
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: a that's a you could have a debate on that
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: because you're not moving the right tackle. Anton Harrison's playing
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: right right now. Yeah. But here's the other thing. He's
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: got to play through some stuff. He's got to get
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: better too. But I'm going to give him some credit
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: because he ended up. And if you go back to
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: the first sack that Trevor sustained, which was from Espinessa. Okay,
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: when Espinessa beat Cam around the corner quickly and then
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: Espanessa grabs Trevor, the ball comes out right when he
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: makes contact. Well, we're all of our eyes are on
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: the ball. Yeah, okay, we're not paying attention to Trevor
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: or anything else. We're watching the ball. Well, Espanessa continues
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: to throw Trevor down to the ground, throws him into
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: the back of the legs of Anton Harrison. Anton Harrison
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: has hurt, and so I give him credit for greeting
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: it out for the remainder of the game, because he
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: he was noticeably hurt. And so I think he did
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: a good job continue to play in the game. I mean,
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: so give him some credit for some toughness. But he's
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: got to get a little bit better. He had a
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: couple of breakdowns. He had the illegal lineman down the
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: field penalty, first penalty of the year for it. By
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: the way, he had the hold on the outside that's
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: the second penalty of the year for He's had some
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: false starts and uh, and you know, he's had some
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: tough plays. I mean, he needs to get better and
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: he will. I think he's a he's a really good athlete,
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: but he's got to get better. And you know, at
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: some point, you know, let's say you have everybody back,
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: and you know, I mean, do you consider maybe maybe
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: taking cam Or Walker little and replacing that Anton Harrison
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: at right tackle? Right now, he's part of your best
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: five Anton Harrison is so I don't think you do
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: anything like that. You can have the debate as to
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: whether cam Or Walker should be the left tackle and
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: who should be the left guard. I think that's a
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: fair debate. But right now, with Walker little looking like
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: he's not gonna play, not having practiced both yesterday and today,
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: now you're gonna have shatliners and the bart struggled, okay,
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: Shatley struggled a little bit. Okay, the inside of the
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: performance of your offensive line. Look, if you want it
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: to be better, okay, and if you can get it better, great.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: I think Fortner can play better. I think Sheriff played
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: pretty solid this past game. He had the one time
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: where he got beat to the inside and gave up
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: a a hit on Trevor and which was a penalty
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: which allowed them to go for two. You know. So,
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: I mean I think the interior guys and the offensive
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: line across the board can play better. I think there's
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: room for improvement there. Well, guess what, no rest for
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: the weary. Because the defensive line for the Colts and
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: the front seven, the linebacker group on top of that,
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: they're really good, really really good. They're really good. And
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: this is a big challenge this game, and you know
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: it starts with those two guys up front and Grover
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: Stewart ninety DeForrest Buckner ninety nine. I mean, these are
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: two really really good football players. And then when you've
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: got that kind of power in the middle, it makes
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: it easier for the guys on the outside and also
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: the guys that are behind those big guys. Because Zire Franklin,
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: who wears number forty four for the Colts, had a
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: monster game against the Jaguars the first time around, I
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: mean he was more like wow, and not just against
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: the Jags. Now even since then, he now leads the
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: league in tackles overall. Hit is a hammer, I mean
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: a hammer. He's impressive to watch. A lot has been
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: made out of Shack Leonard, the multiple Pro Bowl linebacker
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: for the Colts, who when he first got into the
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: league he was just fantastic. Well, injuries have slowed him
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: down dramatically. He's had a couple of back surgeries, he's
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: had an ankle issue, and he's just he's just not
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: the same player that he was before. In fact, you know,
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: watching the film at times when he he's been rotating
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: with e J. Speed, I thought that e J. Speed
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: was better player than Shaq Lenard. But Shaq Leonard's got
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: what's the what's the term, He's got medals on the wall,
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: so to speak. Pelts, Pelts on the wall, whatever you
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: want to say. He's been there, done that. He's been there,
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: done that, and he's got a lot of respect, and
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: he's a he's a natural leader, and he's a captain
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: of that football team. So he's gonna get a little
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: bit of Leeway's fast playtime. And when he's right, he's
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: really really good the ball out there. Well, he hasn't
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: done that in a while, that's true. Okay, in his career.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: He's got seventeen forced fumbles, which is what you're talking about,
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: and it's been a long time since he's had one.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: The secondary of the Colts is where you need to
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: make some hey this week, Okay, you need to get
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: some things done. Last time that the Jaguars faced the Colts,
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: they have Dallas Flowers at one corner back, pretty good player.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: He's on injury reserve, I think. Now now you got
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: Darryl Baker junior, Jalen Jones on one corner and then
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: Juju Brents the rookie, which I don't even think he
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: was starting the last time the Jaguars played. But they've
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: got a good nickel back and Kenny Moore, who's one
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: of the better players in the league. But this is
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: where the Jaguars need to win is on the outside.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: Calvin Ridley, Christian Kirk, whoever else lines up about there.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: I know Zay's probably going to be out of the
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: practice this week. Yet you know, whether it's Agnew or
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: Tim Jones or you know whoever, Well, for those guys
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: to win more consistently, the offensive line must win more consistently.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: You gotta block him to give him that time to
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: throw it down the field. You gotta block those two
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: dudes in the middle. Yeah, start there and then move
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: on from from that point plenty more ahead. We'll get
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: into the quarterback play in the last two weeks with
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence really playing big and keeping this team going
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: on the offensive side of the football. A lot of
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: reasons why we'll come back and discuss this to Doug
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: Peterson Show on Jaguars Radio.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right now.
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: Colt Shaguars coming up this Sunday. It's one o'clock kickoff
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: time at EverBank Stadium and Welcome back to Doug Peterson
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: Show presented by Fresh from Florida J P. Shaddick with
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: Jeff logoman Doug Peterson in the opening segment every week
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: at five o'clock. A quarterback play a big reason for
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: the success across the pond, if you will. And Trevor
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: Lawrence really playing well in that Falcons game, using his
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: legs a number of times to move the sticks and
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: then making some throws down the field. And then of
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: course against the Bills they had the running game going late,
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: but Trevor Lawrence standing in there certainly on the opening touchdown,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: taking one right in the face and throwing a touchdown
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: past his A Jones. I mean that that is big
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: time stuff. There was another later in the game as well,
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: but just the willingness and the ability to stand in
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: there and take a hit or two and for the
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: most part protect the ball. Yes, he lost two sack fumbles,
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: but to overcome those as an offense, he's a big
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: reason why the go back. I'm gonna go back to
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: the Zay Jones touchdown where Trevor gets hit okay in
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: the face by right at Oliver at Oliver number ninety one.
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: He was all the place, penalties all day long and
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: tackles for loss. It was open because they ended up
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: doubling Kirk which was Kirk was lined up to the
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: inside of Jay, and that left Zay alone on the outside.
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: I thought that Trevor could have actually even been faster
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: with the delivery of the ball, to say, and because
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: they had a trem I mean you talk about an
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: A plus move on a defensive back. I mean that
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: that play was as good of a move as a
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: wide receiver could make on a defensive back that you'll
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: ever watch. I mean, I'm talking school. I mean, when
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: they write a book about route running, really they put
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: that play in there. And then the video of Zay,
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, it was just tremendous, and so Trevor could
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: have gotten that ball quicker to say, and then it
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: wouldn't have been this Oh my gosh, did he get
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: his feet in kind of a situation because they had
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: a tremendous amount of separation right out of the gate,
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: he ran right by him. But nonetheless, I mean, look,
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: I mean you can't make all the reads like that,
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: you know, and Trevor did a good job that he
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: got there and it was a touchdown. But the part
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: that Trevor I think has really started to advance in
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: the last couple of weeks is some of the mobility
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: decisions where he's saying, Okay, I'm going to use my
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: legs here because there's an opening. And that's what some
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: of the really good quarterbacks do. I mean, when you
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: watch like Patrick Mahomes play, who is the best quarterback
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: in the league. He knows when he can do it,
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: and he knows when he can and he kind of
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: walks that fine line of when he should expose himself
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: and when he shouldn't. And Trevor's doing a little bit
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: of that. I want to make sure though, that he
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: gets on the side of not putting himself at risk
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: a little bit more. But nonetheless I like it because
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: it's showing again I use that term earlier, grit. I
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: think he's got some grit to him. Oh, it's showing
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: for sure, each and every week. Not to be confused
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: with grits. It's one letter different the food. Yes, yeah,
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: it's an extra letter. I like rich though, I do too.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: I'm sure Trevor does, being from where he's from, all sure, yeah,
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: it's probably part of that. So that's one thing. But
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: then the response of the team when things like that happen,
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: when he's taking those hits, and I mean just talking
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: a couple of guys in the locker room this week.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: Christian Kirk had a big smile on his face, like, yeah,
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: I mean that sometimes it doesn't go perfectly. But when
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: it doesn't go perfectly, we need a guy that can
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: handle it. If you wanted to have the you know,
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: because when you have young quarterbacks, you're trying to teach
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: them what it takes to be a great quarterback, right okay,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: And if you wanted to put together a video highlight
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: of what it takes to play quarterback at a high
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: level in the National Football League, I'd pull that play
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: on the third and four to Calvin Ridley and that
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: would be one of them right there. Yeah, just to
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: identify it, to see it, and to execute the threat.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: Identify it, see it. AIM's the play, Okay, know what's
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: going to be coming standing there, unflinching throw on the money. Perfect.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: It doesn't get any better in the key moment. I
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: mean you had to have it third down on your
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: own end, third and fully up by a few points.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: I mean third and four. I mean that's a great
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: job by Trevor and an excellent job by Calvin Ridley.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: And it also seems that Calvin Ridley's found a little
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: bit of a rhythm in this offense after having a
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: tough go of it against the Texans. You know, like
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: you know, they got it in his hand early against
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: the Bills by handing it to him. They did the
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: end a round. Why sweep thing twice to him? Well,
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: you had two to him, one to Christian Kirk and
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: then Agnew had one. So that's doing two things. Obviously
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: making the defense run to the boundary. But hey, let's
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: get it in the wide receiver's hand early. Get a
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: little comfort zone going. Alright, he's held the ball once
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: and let's start throwing it. Yeah. I like Calvin, but
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: he doesn't have the elusiveness of an Agnew. Right, he
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: took a couple of pretty good shots at the end
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: of his reverse play. Good game, don't get me wrong,
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: excuse me, positive plays, But at the end at the
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: end of those he took a pretty good shot. We'll
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: return And speaking of returning, Gardner Minshew returns to Jacksonville
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: this week. He's the Colt starting quarterback. Anthony Richardson's out
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: with an ac joint injury. Logs are gonna get your
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: thoughts on Minshew mania. Geez, when do we come back?
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: Is the Doug Peterson Show on the Jaguars Radio Network.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues.
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: Right now, Yes it does, and it is presented by
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: Fresh from Florida, J P. Shadick with Jeff Logman, The
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: Colts the Jaguars coming up this Sunday, one o'clock kickoff
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: time at the bank head Coach Doug Peterson joining us
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: in the opening segment Each and every Thursday, five o'clock
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: start time on the Jaguars Radio Network. Well, it's Minshew
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: Mania time. Gardner Mitschew is coming back. He is a
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: quarterback of the Indianapolis Colts. Anthony Richardson is out for
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: at least four weeks with an ac joint injury and
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: it's throwing shoulder. Ir so, here comes Gardner Minshew the second.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: Of course, Jaguars fans know him well from the nineteen
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: and twenty seasons, and then he was in training camp
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: in twenty twenty one. Remember they had reps together, he
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: and the training camp battle, remember that, Yeah, I remember it.
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: And then the That's Raid that was a clown show.
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: And they traded him to the Eagles, right correct, Because
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Dave Caldwell was working with the Philadelphia Eagles at that time.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: Dave Caldwell was the one who originally drafted gardner Man.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: So I don't know if if Caldwell is still there
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: or not, but or if he went to Indianapolis, I
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: don't know. Maybe you could find that out, but that
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: was I think one of the main reasons why I
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: Minshew was traded to Philadelphia is because Caldwell had history
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: with him and drafted him, and obviously with Howie Roseman there,
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: he told how he look, I got a guy who
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: can be a good backup, which he is. Dave's still
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: with the Eagles, He's in town still a lot. Oh yeah,
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: he works out of here, I believe out of Jacksonville here.
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: But uh, I think it's I think he can provide
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: a little bit of a boost to a colts team
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: from the point of when you watch the film, at
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: times you can see that the body language of the
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: receivers and how they react to Anthony Richardson's play is
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: not sometimes favorable, and where they get frustrated because Anthony
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: Richardson doesn't see him. He doesn't throw the ball to
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: them when they're open, and sometimes his eyes will drop.
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson and then he'll take off and run, you know,
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: a veteran quarterback. Okay, let me just say this real quick.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: Some of Anthony Richardson's performance could be comparable to the
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: Minshew mania back in the old days here. Okay, okay,
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: but Garder Mitschew has grown a little bit. Okay, he
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: doesn't run as much as he used to just to
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: run and create the mania. Okay, so he's grown a
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: little bit in that aspect. But I think it's going
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: to be a little bit of a boost for that
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: offense because they feel like that offense will feel like
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: that they can run more of their offense. The receivers
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: will feel like they have a chance of actually catching
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: the ball because it's going to get thrown their way.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: It's kind of a off but it's to this topic
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: a little bit that doesn't really have anything to do
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: specifically with these quarterbacks. But if you're a young quarterback
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: and you see receivers making that kind of display, yeah,
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: but a lot of times if they're not seeing it
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: to throw it to him, they're not seeing that display either. However,
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: you might see it on tape later or whatever. What
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: point do you go to your receivers and say, hey, guys,
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: like cut it out. I'm doing the best I can here.
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: You know, I'm trying to lead this team and I'm
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: just I stink right now or whatever it is, right,
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: I don't At what point do you do that as
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: a quarterback to your guy or is it personalities involved?
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: Everything comes into play there. Well, I mean you got
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: to earn a little bit of respect to be able
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: to say that and to not have it thrown right
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: back in your face. You know. So if you're not
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: playing well, then who are you to say, don't have
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: a leg to stand in? Really? No, no, And that's
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: why you know, leadership in the National Football League is
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: based on production. You have to have performance to have leadership.
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: If you're look, you can have the greatest player that
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: ever was, But if he's not the greatest player that
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: ever was anymore, he can't be a great leader because
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: he's his performance is not there. And so the great
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: leaders typically come from the great players. And that's the
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: perfect combination. When you have somebody who has a natural
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: leadership within them, but then also the ability to be great.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: Those are the great leaders. Tom Brady, for example, Okay,
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: he could walk the walk and then when he said something,
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: it got hurt because it's it's look, Tom freaking Brady's okay,
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: the man, the stud the guy that's still performing at
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: a high level. And so when you have that together,
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: I mean it's there can be something special and that's,
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: you know what you hope that. I think Trevor Lawrence
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: has still even grown into that role. But I think
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: you're seeing more of it from him. You know that
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: some of that fire and some of that that on
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: the field leadership. I think you're starting to see more
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: of that from Trevor. And his style is different. He's
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: not going to like get in guys faces for some nine.
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, it may be that's not his style yet,
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: but I mean sometimes guy's got to grow into that,
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: you know. And and again, you have to have success
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: and you have to have some of those pelts on
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: the wall or those trophies on the shelf sometime, uh,
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: to legitimize your voice or legitimize you being heard. Bootleggers
