Jags A.M. Podcast Ep. 197 | Jakobi Meyers’ Impact, Looking at the Long Term & AFC South Race · The Jacksonville Jaguars Official Podcast Network

0:16
Speaker 1: Welcome to Jagsam. I'm Kindannie Stephens, Brian Sexton, John Osier
0:19
Speaker 1: with me today as Jaguarts prepare for one of their
0:22
Speaker 1: biggest games so far the season. They're going to take
0:24
Speaker 1: on the Colts and the winner we'll get bragging rights
0:26
Speaker 1: and they will be the solo lead of the AFC
0:28
Speaker 1: South Division. So a lot up for grabs this week.
0:31
Speaker 1: Let's talk about some big things today, brought to you
0:33
Speaker 1: by g e h A Government Employees Health Association.
0:36
Speaker 2: Big thing number one is in return.
0:38
Speaker 1: We obviously don't know the extent of Parker Washington's injury.
0:41
Speaker 1: He did leave the game against the Titans last week, Brian,
0:44
Speaker 1: but we do know Austin Tramill was also released earlier
0:46
Speaker 1: this week. So if Parker Washington can't go, what is
0:48
Speaker 1: this return game going to look like?
0:50
Speaker 2: On punts?
0:50
Speaker 3: Well, I'm that's a great question and one that we'll
0:54
Speaker 3: have to talk with the coach about. I would think
0:56
Speaker 3: that maybe Leaquin Allen, who is a kickoff return guy
1:00
Speaker 3: who's used to looking up for the ball and not
1:02
Speaker 3: focusing on the rush. I would think that if Trammel
1:06
Speaker 3: is released, they have some measure of confidence in Parker
1:10
Speaker 3: Washington's ability to get back on the field because he
1:13
Speaker 3: is the backup. You generally don't let that go. I
1:16
Speaker 3: see this as a positive sign.
1:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see. I think it'll go up to Sunday
1:22
Speaker 2: with Parker is just my gut, and you know the
1:28
Speaker 2: person at this point, I would guess the person with
1:31
Speaker 2: the surest hands will be assigned to catch punts rather
1:36
Speaker 2: than focus on returning them. Not quite sure who that'll be,
1:41
Speaker 2: but it's a storyline. Father Us of the.
1:42
Speaker 1: Week, something to figure out on practice this week for sure.
1:44
Speaker 1: Let's go to our second big thig, which is long term.
1:46
Speaker 1: After the win over the Titans, I think that was
1:49
Speaker 1: Jacobe Myers's most consistent game we've seen just in the
1:52
Speaker 1: month that he's been here. But he's also such a
1:54
Speaker 1: big part of this offense already. John.
1:56
Speaker 2: I don't know what the new.
1:58
Speaker 1: Regime likes to do in terms of signing people in
2:00
Speaker 1: season or they're focused ahead, but he has to be
2:02
Speaker 1: someone you want to see around your long term.
2:04
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think the new regime likes to retain good
2:08
Speaker 2: football players as Sho and this was out of all
2:13
Speaker 2: the moves, right Travis Hunter. Whatever they did in the offseason,
2:17
Speaker 2: Djakobe Meyer's at mid season ranks up there with the
2:19
Speaker 2: best moves This regime has made, has made a dramatic difference.
2:23
Speaker 2: I would be surprised if something doesn't get done long
2:27
Speaker 2: term with Jacoby. By the time it becomes an issue
2:31
Speaker 2: of meeting, I think you'll get them before the end
2:32
Speaker 2: of season too.
2:35
Speaker 3: Just in talking to people around the building, they are
2:37
Speaker 3: so confident in him. They do not want him playing
2:40
Speaker 3: anywhere else next year, and that's a great sign for
2:43
Speaker 3: him that the Jaguars will work to get a deal done.
2:46
Speaker 3: I went back and looked at mid season trades in
2:48
Speaker 3: Jaguars history. This is right there with the best of them,
2:51
Speaker 3: and I think the best of them was Marcel Darius
2:54
Speaker 3: in twenty seventeen. Because the Jaguars that year had a
2:56
Speaker 3: problem against the run. He immediately shored up the defensive
2:59
Speaker 3: front and the Jaguars were able to power themselves via
3:03
Speaker 3: the defense in large part to the AFC Championship game.
3:06
Speaker 3: This one. If the Jaguars make the playoffs, I think
3:09
Speaker 3: because of where they were offensively, I think this puts
3:11
Speaker 3: them in a great position, and it puts Myers up
3:14
Speaker 3: there with the very best of in season trades.
3:18
Speaker 2: And doesn't it feel like he's just calmed things down
3:21
Speaker 2: for Trevor, somebody he can trust. I mean, it's the
3:24
Speaker 2: difference he's made, even beyond just his own stats, has
3:29
Speaker 2: been really significant for the last three or four weeks
3:31
Speaker 2: of this team three and one, since they acquired Well
3:34
Speaker 2: and John.
3:35
Speaker 3: I also think that he's a guy in that room
3:36
Speaker 3: with those other receivers who are younger, in particular Brian
3:40
Speaker 3: Thomas Junior, because of the way that he goes about
3:42
Speaker 3: his business. Myers is a discipline, detailed guy. I think
3:47
Speaker 3: for Brian who's trying to get his career back on track,
3:50
Speaker 3: I think he's the perfect guy on so many fronts.
3:52
Speaker 1: Absolutely a great addition to this team, hopefully for a
3:55
Speaker 1: long time. Let's do our final big thing today, which
3:57
Speaker 1: is annual traditions.
3:58
Speaker 2: It's the holiday season.
4:00
Speaker 1: Talk about some manual traditions around here, and recently, for
4:03
Speaker 1: the past decade, it has been beating the Colts in Jacksonville.
4:06
Speaker 1: They haven't gotten a win here since twenty fourteen. Ryan
4:09
Speaker 1: can count on that keeping going this weekend or still
4:12
Speaker 1: take a little something.
4:13
Speaker 3: Let me count on is a very strong phrase. Kai.
4:17
Speaker 3: My favorite addition was the twenty twenty one game, where
4:20
Speaker 3: they had an interim coach and a rookie quarterback, and
4:23
Speaker 3: all the Colts had to do was come down here
4:25
Speaker 3: and find a way to just play solid football, and
4:28
Speaker 3: they make their way into the playoffs. And we were
4:30
Speaker 3: told after the game that before the game, Trevor Lawrence
4:34
Speaker 3: went around the locker room, the rookie quarterback, urging his
4:36
Speaker 3: teammates to put their best on the field, and they did,
4:39
Speaker 3: winning twenty six to ten. That was a great performance
4:43
Speaker 3: by a team that really had no reason to perform.
4:45
Speaker 3: Great John And I'm told that Frank Wright painted that
4:50
Speaker 3: score in the locker room in Indianapolis for everyone to remember.
4:54
Speaker 2: Yeah. Look, the last ten years, there's been a lot
4:58
Speaker 2: of good wins for the JA War was over the Colts.
5:02
Speaker 2: None of those games mattered, Some mattered, but nothing compared
5:07
Speaker 2: to this one. Uh seventeen. I forget when they played them,
5:10
Speaker 2: but it was not a memorable, necessarily game. The Jaguars
5:15
Speaker 2: have been bad during this streak. Yes, I would trade
5:19
Speaker 2: four or five or six of those wins for a
5:21
Speaker 2: win Sunday. I think most Jaguars fans would. This is
5:24
Speaker 2: a different ball wax than the last nine or ten
5:28
Speaker 2: games against the Colts in this stadium in a good way.
5:31
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a great game this Sunday. We'll talk
5:32
Speaker 2: a lot more about it today and tomorrow.
5:34
Speaker 1: Stay with us here on jag Zam. We're gonna do
5:36
Speaker 1: a little this or that after the break. Jag Zam
5:46
Speaker 1: brought to you today by Field Auto Group, Seafield's first,
5:49
Speaker 1: Jacksonville's premier luxury auto group. Head Overfield Auto dot Com.
5:54
Speaker 2: This, Oh, that's this, Oh, welcome back. Get to jag Van.
6:01
Speaker 1: I'm going to play a little this or that today
6:02
Speaker 1: as we look at this roster, we look ahead. We're
6:05
Speaker 1: a very exciting game this week, and of course my question.
6:08
Speaker 1: We talked a little bit about special teams off the
6:10
Speaker 1: top in terms of what the punk returns are going
6:12
Speaker 1: to look like if Parker Washington can't go. Not quite
6:14
Speaker 1: sure on that yet, so we're going to talk a
6:16
Speaker 1: little bit about the rest of the special teams. Are
6:18
Speaker 1: you concerned at all? I mean, Logan Coff took a
6:20
Speaker 1: pretty hard hit, Ross Madisik had to leave the game
6:22
Speaker 1: due to a back injury.
6:23
Speaker 2: He did come back in.
6:25
Speaker 1: But special teams, which is something we normally kind of
6:27
Speaker 1: right off as all set is now a little bit
6:29
Speaker 1: of a concern right now.
6:30
Speaker 3: Well, the Mattisik one is the one that would concern me.
6:32
Speaker 3: Nothing against Von Hamilton, who you know did Yeoman's work
6:35
Speaker 3: going into the game and covering it. But you saw
6:38
Speaker 3: how the Titans adjusted. They just set everybody after it,
6:41
Speaker 3: and the ball was off target both on the extra point,
6:46
Speaker 3: the immediate extra point after the touchdown and a couple
6:49
Speaker 3: of those snaps, which is why Logan got hit. So
6:51
Speaker 3: Mattisik would be the one that would concern me. I
6:54
Speaker 3: would expect that Logan, even with a shoulder, would be
6:57
Speaker 3: able to punt.
6:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would be concerned, except they have many moves,
7:02
Speaker 2: So if they were really concerned about those guys, you
7:08
Speaker 2: would bring in a long snapper, you would bring in
7:11
Speaker 2: a punter. So I'm not a Wigmathan playing. I wish
7:15
Speaker 2: they would stay out of fights.
7:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, now watching him, you know writhe in pain there,
7:21
Speaker 3: which we just saw you forget. I mean, you've talked
7:25
Speaker 3: about a six foot six man who is two hundred
7:28
Speaker 3: and twenty five two hundred and thirty pounds and a
7:30
Speaker 3: muscular dude. So I mean it's not like you're asking
7:32
Speaker 3: Heyden Epstein, right, or or one of the other Jaguars
7:36
Speaker 3: kickers or punters from years past, to go over there,
7:38
Speaker 3: Matthew Wright, to go over there and pop a hit
7:41
Speaker 3: on somebody. This is a big, strong dude.
7:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe just maybe take a little easy on the tackles.
7:46
Speaker 3: I'm sure he's been told that a couple of times.
7:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but it was entertaining. We'll give him that,
7:51
Speaker 1: but we'll keep it out. And I think you are right, John,
7:53
Speaker 1: the lack of moves maybe makes us feel a little
7:55
Speaker 1: more safe with that because we haven't seen a ton
7:58
Speaker 1: of stuff going on. Obviously later in the week we'll
7:59
Speaker 1: get a better idea of that. But some injuries as
8:02
Speaker 1: well on the offensive line, and then right before the
8:04
Speaker 1: game actually, Eric Armstead was scratched due to an injury
8:07
Speaker 1: last week to his hands. So when it comes to
8:09
Speaker 1: the trenches, is there any concerns there, John, on either
8:12
Speaker 1: side of the football with injuries on O line or
8:15
Speaker 1: D line.
8:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're getting thin. You're playing the number four or
8:20
Speaker 2: five running attack with the best running back in football.
8:23
Speaker 2: The Jaguars are the best run defense. Devon Hamilton is
8:27
Speaker 2: the biggest reason why they're the best run defense, but
8:30
Speaker 2: he's not the only reason. Yeah, you know, you know,
8:33
Speaker 2: I want to see forty four in uniform. Forty four
8:36
Speaker 2: wants to see forty four in uniform. Yes, you would
8:40
Speaker 2: definitely like to have Eric Armstead pushed in the pocket
8:43
Speaker 2: in the middle, and you would like to have Trayvon
8:45
Speaker 2: Walker on the field against the Colts. I mean, there's
8:48
Speaker 2: a chance, but it's not a definite that these guys play.
8:52
Speaker 3: So if you have both of them, you feel really good.
8:54
Speaker 3: Because the Jaguars run defense, though it's ranked number one,
9:00
Speaker 3: you were not scared of what the Titans were going
9:02
Speaker 3: to do running. You bring in the NFL's leading rusher
9:06
Speaker 3: and Jonathan Taylor, a guy who you might recall had
9:08
Speaker 3: a huge day thirty four carries in one hundred and
9:10
Speaker 3: seventy seven yards in the season finale last year. You
9:14
Speaker 3: need those guys. You have a great chance with them.
9:18
Speaker 3: That's the concern right now is that Armstead and Treyvon
9:21
Speaker 3: are going to be limited. But if you've got them
9:23
Speaker 3: on the field at all, even if it's only for
9:26
Speaker 3: fifteen to twenty snaps, at least you give yourselves a
9:29
Speaker 3: chance to shore up. I'm not so worried about the
9:30
Speaker 3: offensive side of the ball, but the defensive side of
9:33
Speaker 3: the ball, man Jonathan Taylor is the best.
9:36
Speaker 1: I will take a moment on the offensive side of
9:37
Speaker 1: the ball to say cole Van Lannon's about just the
9:40
Speaker 1: MVP as he plays every single position on the offensive line.
9:42
Speaker 2: What he's been able to do.
9:44
Speaker 3: His agent wouldn't you Jack, let's talk.
9:46
Speaker 1: I mean he's earned it because to see him play
9:48
Speaker 1: guard tackle, same game, switching sides, he's been invaluable so far.
9:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny Cole. I don't know Matt well, but
9:56
Speaker 2: strikes he is a humble guy. Trevor and Liam both
10:01
Speaker 2: talked after the game about how resilient and how versatile
10:04
Speaker 2: the offensive line is. So went back and looked at everything.
10:07
Speaker 2: It's Cole Van Landon's versatile. Yeah, it's not a knock
10:10
Speaker 2: on anybody else. It is a versatile line. But I
10:12
Speaker 2: kind of laugh. They've had lineup changes, but every week
10:16
Speaker 2: it's cole Van Lannon going in. So they've been a deep,
10:20
Speaker 2: resilient offensive line, largely because of number seventy. He's a
10:24
Speaker 2: big part. You might talk about five starters, Bad Bunch
10:28
Speaker 2: considers this guy's starter as he should be.
10:31
Speaker 1: Stay with us here on jag Zam after the break
10:32
Speaker 1: we'll talk a little bit about what's going on around
10:34
Speaker 1: the NFL. Jag Zam brought to you by Dreamfinders' Homes
10:48
Speaker 1: for twelve years. Dreamfinders Holmes and be proud to call
10:50
Speaker 1: themselves the official home builder of the Jacksonville Jaguars, with
10:52
Speaker 1: a Dreamfinders' Homes dot Com for all of the available inventory.
10:57
Speaker 2: Welcome back in to jags Am.
10:58
Speaker 1: Talk a little bit about what's going on around the
11:00
Speaker 1: league and the AC South in particular, because things are
11:03
Speaker 1: heating up. Don't look now eight and four Jags, eight
11:06
Speaker 1: and four Colts and seven and five Texans. Titans will
11:10
Speaker 1: leave out of it. But Texans beat the Colts obviously,
11:12
Speaker 1: that was a big game last week. They're improving seven
11:14
Speaker 1: and five and equipping their way back in. Well.
11:17
Speaker 3: John touched on it the other day when we were
11:19
Speaker 3: talking about the division, and he's right, that is any
11:21
Speaker 3: elite defense when we talk about some of the best
11:24
Speaker 3: defenses we've seen in thirty years of covering the league.
11:29
Speaker 3: I mean, these guys, they're the reason why the Jaguars
11:33
Speaker 3: lost there last month. I mean, they kept them in
11:36
Speaker 3: that bowl game, and they're able to keep them in
11:38
Speaker 3: almost every ballgame now. You've got CJ. Stroud back, even
11:41
Speaker 3: though he hasn't had a terrific season, that defense gives
11:45
Speaker 3: you a chance. They are unbelievably good.
11:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not sure that team's very much different with
11:50
Speaker 2: Mills or Stroud frankly.
11:51
Speaker 1: But.
11:53
Speaker 2: I think Mills is really he's evolved, maybe one of
11:57
Speaker 2: the better backers in the league. But if you had
12:00
Speaker 2: to tell me what team scares you the most, I
12:04
Speaker 2: get the Colts are really good and they're in it.
12:07
Speaker 2: I was gonna say the Texans been. As soon as
12:09
Speaker 2: I say that it is a division right now, somebody
12:12
Speaker 2: asks me and the other and who I think will win.
12:14
Speaker 2: Flip a coin. It is fun. The way the league
12:17
Speaker 2: set it up. There's still three more games involving these teams.
12:21
Speaker 2: They set it up right, It is going to be
12:25
Speaker 2: We're gonna be watching games and checking scores to the
12:28
Speaker 2: rest of the season.
12:29
Speaker 3: You know, It's really fun for those of us who
12:31
Speaker 3: have covered the South for a while, is all the
12:33
Speaker 3: people are surprised at the South and they don't spend
12:36
Speaker 3: that much time looking at the talent that's in the division.
12:39
Speaker 3: And at some point, when you keep adding it up,
12:42
Speaker 3: you're going to get to this point, They've done a
12:45
Speaker 3: tremendous job in Indianapolis and in Houston and obviously here
12:48
Speaker 3: in Jacksonville of compiling talent and then just week to
12:51
Speaker 3: week grinding it out. I will say this, and if
12:53
Speaker 3: I don't whether you looked at the schedule for the Colts,
12:55
Speaker 3: it is brutal. And so they have got They've got
12:59
Speaker 3: the twice, They've got the Texans, the Niners, and the Seahawks.
13:03
Speaker 3: That's their final five games, all playoff caliber teams, all
13:07
Speaker 3: teams with at least seven wins. It is a brutal
13:10
Speaker 3: finish to their season.
13:11
Speaker 2: And I don't know if I saw a graphics summer.
13:14
Speaker 2: I'm not even sure where I saw it. People. I
13:17
Speaker 2: don't tend to lean into everybody overlooks the Jags things
13:20
Speaker 2: much as most people. But I saw a graphic this
13:22
Speaker 2: week talking about the race for the number one seed
13:26
Speaker 2: Denver Patriots and the Colts. Hi, Well, you know this
13:32
Speaker 2: team's good and we know it. There is a tone
13:37
Speaker 2: when you read national stuff. And again I don't lean
13:39
Speaker 2: into this, no, but that it's Texans Colts. Look, this
13:44
Speaker 2: is a three way deal. And I would say the
13:48
Speaker 2: Jaguars chances are as good or better than the other
13:51
Speaker 2: two teams.
13:51
Speaker 3: Because the schedule's favorable for the Jaguars, who have still
13:55
Speaker 3: a game against the Jets and the Titans.
13:57
Speaker 2: And look, you know you're not to go two socks
14:00
Speaker 2: on today. So he's my winning socks Ryan with your
14:04
Speaker 2: winning coffee. Mark. Yeah. Look, this team has beaten five
14:08
Speaker 2: teams with records of five hundred better. Right, you're eight
14:13
Speaker 2: and four. You've earned your way to eight and four,
14:15
Speaker 2: certainly as much as the other two teams in the division.
14:17
Speaker 2: Now they got to go prove it. But if they
14:19
Speaker 2: win Sunday, it's six wins out of your nine against
14:24
Speaker 2: plus five hundred teams.
14:25
Speaker 3: Listen, people tend to tag things to this team. So
14:27
Speaker 3: they look at the nineteen point fourth quarter meltdown in Houston,
14:30
Speaker 3: they go, ah, they're not that good. They forget that.
14:33
Speaker 3: A week later, the Colts blew an eleven point lead
14:36
Speaker 3: in which they handed the ball to the NFL's leading
14:39
Speaker 3: rusher one time in the fourth quarter. Hello, did anybody
14:42
Speaker 3: pin them and say what you know? What is that? Nope?
14:45
Speaker 3: Nobody did.
14:46
Speaker 2: And then the.
14:47
Speaker 3: Jags had that game where there were four turnovers. So
14:49
Speaker 3: it gives everyone to Jay Well, the quarterback. Okay, well,
14:52
Speaker 3: did they see what the quarterback did to actually win
14:54
Speaker 3: the game? And then this week the Jaguars have never
14:58
Speaker 3: gotten the kind of accolades or credit and maybe they
15:02
Speaker 3: never will because it's a small market and every but
15:06
Speaker 3: I get your point because I've seen it myself.
15:09
Speaker 2: Well, look at I'm praising the Texans. They think they're
15:11
Speaker 2: really good, but they're terrific beaten Titans by three Jaguars.
15:15
Speaker 2: You know, I'm not compared to scores guy either, but
15:18
Speaker 2: the logic that this team isn't in it. Look, I'm tired.
15:22
Speaker 2: Go let's just kick.
15:23
Speaker 3: It off and I'm just get to mar Jen. Wars
15:25
Speaker 3: are the only team to score more than twenty points
15:27
Speaker 3: against the Texans in the last six weeks.
15:30
Speaker 2: Making it happen.
15:30
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love it.
15:31
Speaker 1: Let's talk a little bit more about in the division.
15:33
Speaker 1: We are playing the Colts this week. Sauce Gardner, who
15:36
Speaker 1: the Colts went out there they're clearly going for this year,
15:38
Speaker 1: went all out, created a couple of first round picks
15:40
Speaker 1: for them, left the game with a calf straight and
15:43
Speaker 1: they're calling it week to week at this point, So
15:44
Speaker 1: it doesn't look like it's an Achilles' injury that's going
15:46
Speaker 1: to keep them out for the rest of the season.
15:48
Speaker 1: But that's a tough loss for them when they kind
15:50
Speaker 1: of went and all in on.
15:51
Speaker 3: That, I'd be starting to see him on the field
15:53
Speaker 3: on Sunday, not with as many games against contenders left
15:57
Speaker 3: on the schedule. It's one of those things where you
15:59
Speaker 3: want to have him. They're getting back Tarvarius Ward. I
16:03
Speaker 3: think he was back on the field last week and
16:06
Speaker 3: they thought, Okay, now we've got these two corners that
16:08
Speaker 3: we were planning on for the stretch run. It's kind
16:10
Speaker 3: of the way it goes. And if he does not
16:12
Speaker 3: come back this year, or isn't a factor, or they
16:14
Speaker 3: don't make the playoffs because of their schedule, how good
16:18
Speaker 3: do they feel about giving up two number one picks
16:20
Speaker 3: in the next two years for a corner.
16:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, injuries are going to be a topic Sunday. You're
16:28
Speaker 2: at the point where whoever was out there going to
16:30
Speaker 2: play Bagree. You're at the point now where you'd almost
16:33
Speaker 2: wear a Sea Sauce gardner out there because you wonder
16:35
Speaker 2: how effective he could be. The Jaguars. I think the
16:40
Speaker 2: edge there for them would be one thing we haven't
16:44
Speaker 2: talked about a whole lot on these shows. Is how
16:47
Speaker 2: much they have played through Guys, are you not being
16:50
Speaker 2: out there? You know you're on a four game or
16:53
Speaker 2: three wins in four games without Eric Murray? Who's your
16:56
Speaker 2: communication guy? Jordan Luis is getting back Trayvon hasn't been
17:00
Speaker 2: Trayvon since Week two, and yet you're still building and
17:05
Speaker 2: looking like you're an improving team. That is probably the
17:11
Speaker 2: Jaguar storyline this year that we will look back on
17:17
Speaker 2: once the season's over with and think, wow, that was
17:20
Speaker 2: an impressive job of keeping the ship afloat.
17:22
Speaker 3: The other thing that we haven't really talked about, the
17:24
Speaker 3: Jacks are four and one here in Jacksonville, right. They
17:27
Speaker 3: have built a bit of a home field advantage on Sunday.
17:30
Speaker 3: If they get to five, they will tie the ten, seventeen,
17:36
Speaker 3: and twenty two teams four third in most wins at home.
17:40
Speaker 3: The most wins at home in franchise history is seven
17:43
Speaker 3: set four times, ninety six, ninety seven, ninety eight, and
17:45
Speaker 3: ninety nine. Those are all great playoff teams, right, and
17:49
Speaker 3: you have a chance to do that. So for people
17:52
Speaker 3: who are thinking about coming out because I know their
17:53
Speaker 3: tickets still available, the Jaguars have played well in front
17:56
Speaker 3: of the home crowd. They could use the home crowd
17:58
Speaker 3: this week, and I think if you get this one,
18:01
Speaker 3: you'll probably get the seven and one.
18:03
Speaker 2: Final thing. If you're watching this maybe on minds what
18:05
Speaker 2: Brian's talking about. And again I'm wearing my winning socks
18:12
Speaker 2: since Cincinnati. If you had three losses, they were the Texans,
18:16
Speaker 2: the Rams, and the Seahawks, who right now may be
18:19
Speaker 2: among the best six or seven teams in football. This
18:23
Speaker 2: team is good and they got a chance to show
18:26
Speaker 2: it on Sunday, and.
18:27
Speaker 3: Then I don't want to just step over. You're sorry
18:29
Speaker 3: you mentioned earlier. They have a lot of quality wins.
18:32
Speaker 3: It's not like they've just been beating up on the
18:33
Speaker 3: bottom of the schedule. They're gonna do that next couple
18:36
Speaker 3: of weeks with the Jets and the Titans again. But
18:38
Speaker 3: they've got quality wins.
18:39
Speaker 1: They're earning it for sure.
18:41
Speaker 2: Stay with us on jag Zam.

19:01
Speaker 1: presented by Hyundai Test Drive a new Hunday today only
19:04
Speaker 1: at your local Hundai dealer, and we're shilling tickets. You
19:08
Speaker 1: guys definitely want to be there. I don't know how
19:09
Speaker 1: much more we can talk this up, because this is
19:11
Speaker 1: a game that at the bank I think maybe since
19:15
Speaker 1: two thousand.
19:18
Speaker 3: It was a Saturday night game, so it was primetime
19:21
Speaker 3: and Mike Vrabel came in with Joshua Dobbs right who
19:25
Speaker 3: had just pulled off the Cleveland to practice squad or
19:27
Speaker 3: Detroit practice squad a few weeks before, and dart if
19:31
Speaker 3: it didn't go to the end right, Rayshawn Jenkins made
19:33
Speaker 3: that play where he stripped the ball and josh picked
19:36
Speaker 3: it up and returned it for a touchdown. It was
19:37
Speaker 3: an incredible theater and no one expected it to be.
19:41
Speaker 3: Everyone just thought, well, you know, I mean, they're limping
19:43
Speaker 3: to the finish and it was a hell up finish
19:46
Speaker 3: and it was a lot of fun. So I if
19:47
Speaker 3: this is even fractionally as much fun as that one was,
19:50
Speaker 3: watch out.
19:51
Speaker 2: Yeah. And this is a different season than that that team,
19:54
Speaker 2: you know, well, it's a team that should be a
19:57
Speaker 2: member finally, but it came back, much like the ninety
20:00
Speaker 2: six team, where you really didn't believe it until late.
20:06
Speaker 2: This team four and one, start, four and three, and
20:10
Speaker 2: now two three game winning streaks in a row. I
20:13
Speaker 2: think this team is figuring out that it's good, yeah,
20:17
Speaker 2: because it hasn't been good before. I think the fans
20:19
Speaker 2: need to realize what they're doing now. This is what
20:23
Speaker 2: I think it's going to be for a while. Get
20:26
Speaker 2: used to good games the second half of the season
20:28
Speaker 2: that matter. I keep saying it for years. I've been
20:33
Speaker 2: getting emails, when are we going to be good? When
20:36
Speaker 2: is this? When is this? When is this? This is it? Yeah?
20:39
Speaker 2: This is the fun stuff. This is what you will
20:42
Speaker 2: remember when you're an old man like me about when
20:46
Speaker 2: you were thirty five and watching the Jaguars. These are
20:49
Speaker 2: the times to remember. Well.
20:50
Speaker 3: People, you know, they're like, oh, you always bring up
20:52
Speaker 3: the nineties, Yeah, because those were great football teams. What
20:56
Speaker 3: they're building here is the foundation to do exactly what
20:59
Speaker 3: Tom Kaughlin did back then and build something that lasts.
21:03
Speaker 1: All right, guys, we'll be back here tomorrow for ja
21:05
Speaker 1: exam full show all about that Cults game. As we
21:08
Speaker 1: get ready for the matchup at every Bank Stadium on Sunday,
