0:04
Speaker 1: Walt County and nine oh four. Let's own this stadium.
0:07
Speaker 1: Make it ours. Welcome to the Urban Meyers Show Show.
0:13
Speaker 1: Former Jaguar Jeff Loghman and J. P. Shadrick discussed the
0:16
Speaker 1: latest Jaguars news with the head coach. The Urban Meyers
0:21
Speaker 1: Show starts right now. Welcome into the Urban Meyers Show,
0:25
Speaker 1: presented by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor
0:28
Speaker 1: Vehicles JP Shadrick with Jeff Lockman, The Jaguars and the
0:31
Speaker 1: Houston Texans coming up this Sunday, one o'clock at NRG
0:35
Speaker 1: Stadium in Houston. It is finally, at long last, here,
0:40
Speaker 1: what an offseason it's been. Urban Meyer hired free agency
0:44
Speaker 1: money flying out the door. They're still have the most
0:47
Speaker 1: cat buddy in the league right now, by the way,
0:49
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, but they did spend a lot and the
0:51
Speaker 1: number one overall pick. They had another first round pick.
0:54
Speaker 1: Unfortunately he's not available. Off season program here we go
0:58
Speaker 1: to training camp free see Sason and finally, at long last,
1:02
Speaker 1: regular season football is here. Finally, finally, by the way,
1:07
Speaker 1: I saw Travis c Tienne on he had a he
1:10
Speaker 1: had the Liz Frank injury, and he was on a
1:14
Speaker 1: little scooter you know where you you put the one
1:16
Speaker 1: leg up like on the on the little bicycle seat
1:19
Speaker 1: and then you scooch with the good foot, right. I
1:21
Speaker 1: saw him going around and if it's good to see
1:23
Speaker 1: him look like he was, you know, in good spirits
1:25
Speaker 1: and all that kind of stood. Hopefully he's back and
1:26
Speaker 1: ready for two. That's he's done for the year. This year,
1:30
Speaker 1: this is it's like it's like getting a Christmas present
1:33
Speaker 1: and being told that you can't open it until next
1:35
Speaker 1: year at some point. Just get back healthy and be
1:37
Speaker 1: But but you know, we had we had two really
1:41
Speaker 1: big presents under the tree. Okay, one of them was
1:44
Speaker 1: Travis c. Tienne, right, But the real big one, what's
1:49
Speaker 1: the first overall pen? And that's the one. You couldn't
1:51
Speaker 1: open it until Christmas. They wouldn't let you open that
1:53
Speaker 1: one early, like usually maybe the week of Christmas. Hey
1:56
Speaker 1: can I open this President, No, you gotta wait. This
1:58
Speaker 1: is when you open that. President. And Trevor Lawrence will
2:00
Speaker 1: make his NFL debut this Sunday against the Houston Texans,
2:05
Speaker 1: and I'm curious the approach with him in this offense early.
2:10
Speaker 1: Do you manage it early? Do you run the ball
2:13
Speaker 1: a little bit more, give him some high percentage shorter
2:16
Speaker 1: throws to get him in the game flow a bit,
2:18
Speaker 1: or do you just let it rip right out of
2:19
Speaker 1: the gate. I think you'd go back and you look
2:22
Speaker 1: at Dallas and that you're saying, Okay, that's that's kind
2:25
Speaker 1: of the flavor the tempo that we want with our
2:29
Speaker 1: young quarterback. Start early, easy completion, to get the ball
2:33
Speaker 1: out of his hands, run the ball effectively. And then
2:37
Speaker 1: when we run the ball effectively, okay, now we can
2:40
Speaker 1: start taking a look a little bit farther down the field.
2:43
Speaker 1: But I think it's critical because you know, on an
2:46
Speaker 1: opening game, and and this goes for college, little league,
2:51
Speaker 1: for heaven's sakes, high school football, the first game always
2:55
Speaker 1: has that that intensity of motion. It's all kind of
3:00
Speaker 1: boiling to the bubbling to the top. And so sometimes
3:04
Speaker 1: it's you want to get some of this stuff. Do
3:07
Speaker 1: you want to calm down a little bit? You know,
3:10
Speaker 1: you don't want to come out Yeah? Yeah, I mean
3:12
Speaker 1: you know, your your heart rates it one sixty and
3:15
Speaker 1: you haven't even done anything yet, you know, so you
3:19
Speaker 1: need sometimes to have a couple of things to maybe
3:22
Speaker 1: let the blood pressure come down, to slow the heart
3:24
Speaker 1: rate a little bit, to kind of to let everything
3:26
Speaker 1: just kind of subside and then kind of get into
3:28
Speaker 1: that rhythm. But but I think it's it's gonna be
3:31
Speaker 1: imperative with a young quarterback to have success running the football.
3:35
Speaker 1: And I think the Texans are gonna say take the
3:37
Speaker 1: much the same approach, not because they have a young quarterback,
3:41
Speaker 1: but because they have a quarterback who has been a journeyman.
3:45
Speaker 1: But the Jaguars having a young quarterback and a lot
3:48
Speaker 1: of people say, well, you know, he's never been at
3:50
Speaker 1: the NFL level and it's how style environment. Yeah, okay,
3:53
Speaker 1: great play Clemson. He's been in some environment. He's ready
3:57
Speaker 1: for He's ready for this moment. So you want to
4:01
Speaker 1: do some things to help have early success, but you
4:05
Speaker 1: don't want to overdo it and handcuff him and not
4:08
Speaker 1: will not let him be him. Let's get to this
4:11
Speaker 1: running attack. And obviously the coaching staff and and personnel
4:16
Speaker 1: folks are confident in the offensive line. All five of
4:19
Speaker 1: the strutters are back at the beginning of this season,
4:21
Speaker 1: They've got a veteran backup center and Tyler Shatley. They've
4:25
Speaker 1: got two youngsters at guard and tackle that they're really
4:29
Speaker 1: trying to develop is behind the starting group. So I
4:32
Speaker 1: feel like that's probably gotta be the strongest offense or
4:35
Speaker 1: strongest position group I think on the entire team right now,
4:38
Speaker 1: because of all the veteran players they have at that
4:40
Speaker 1: group that they brought everybody back for a reason. Well,
4:44
Speaker 1: that's the reason is they think they can run the football.
4:46
Speaker 1: So that's what that was the purpose. But it is
4:50
Speaker 1: that going to be the case. The only one way
4:52
Speaker 1: to find out what you have to prove that and
4:55
Speaker 1: you have to earn that. And so when you say,
4:59
Speaker 1: you know, is it the strongest group, I mean physically
5:01
Speaker 1: like weight rooms struggles, I mean just in terms of depth,
5:05
Speaker 1: And I get what you're saying, and that you know
5:07
Speaker 1: your expectation was that, Okay, we have a young quarterback
5:11
Speaker 1: and even though he's the first overall pick of the draft,
5:13
Speaker 1: many bee him as a generational player, we still have
5:15
Speaker 1: to help belong and run football on. Yeah, that's fine,
5:19
Speaker 1: but you have to still do that and you have
5:22
Speaker 1: to get better as an offensive a line group. Can
5:25
Speaker 1: they do that? Well? You'd like to be able to
5:28
Speaker 1: kind of reflect back at the preseason and say, well,
5:31
Speaker 1: you could see where they got better, but you didn't
5:35
Speaker 1: have that moment in the preseason because a lot of
5:37
Speaker 1: guys were dimmed up or not playing. So can they
5:41
Speaker 1: do it? I think that's gonna be one of the
5:42
Speaker 1: biggest tests. I think the quarterback and his completion percentage
5:46
Speaker 1: and his ability to make people better will help them.
5:49
Speaker 1: I think, honestly, I think that's gonna be. You know,
5:51
Speaker 1: we talk a lot about the offensive line helping a
5:54
Speaker 1: young quarterback, and that is true. You want the offensive
5:57
Speaker 1: line to help him by running the ball effectively, but
6:00
Speaker 1: there are also needs to be helped provided to the
6:03
Speaker 1: offensive line from the quarterback. And I think that's a
6:06
Speaker 1: two way street. And I think it will happen because
6:09
Speaker 1: I think so highly of Trevor Lawrence and I think
6:13
Speaker 1: that he is going to be an absolute joy to watch.
6:16
Speaker 1: I can't wait. It's this is the most anticipated moment
6:20
Speaker 1: in Jaguars franchise history in my opinion, Name me another
6:24
Speaker 1: besides besides the first game in NFL history, okay, in
6:28
Speaker 1: Jaguar's history where Houston came to Jacksonville. In name me
6:36
Speaker 1: a more anticipated moment in this franchise's history. I can't
6:41
Speaker 1: at least in the ten seasons i've been here. I
6:43
Speaker 1: can't know. Maybe the a f C Championship game playoff game, right,
6:49
Speaker 1: But besides that game, okay, which we lost up in
6:53
Speaker 1: New England and which we lost. I wasn't a part
6:56
Speaker 1: of that team to the Tennessee Titans here in the
7:00
Speaker 1: a C champion game. Besides those two Patriots back a
7:04
Speaker 1: few years ago, besides those three losses. Where where else?
7:10
Speaker 1: What else compares? Nothing, Nothing compares. And so that's why
7:15
Speaker 1: this moment I believe that it's something that I mean,
7:19
Speaker 1: get your popcorn ready, okay, set your DVR, or do
7:23
Speaker 1: whatever it is that you gotta do, because this is
7:25
Speaker 1: a big moment franchise history. This is a big moment
7:28
Speaker 1: in the city of Jacksonville's history. I mean, you've got
7:30
Speaker 1: you've got what many view as a generational franchise quarterback
7:36
Speaker 1: that's making his first start ever. And is this the
7:39
Speaker 1: moment that we look back on and we say, this
7:42
Speaker 1: change the destiny of the franchise. You might want to
7:44
Speaker 1: save the DVR on your TV if you're watching it
7:48
Speaker 1: and you do that, I don't even know how to
7:49
Speaker 1: do that. Well, that's what it's designed to do. Is.
7:53
Speaker 1: I don't know how long? Can you download it? If
7:56
Speaker 1: the DVR crashes, do you lose it? Can we get
7:58
Speaker 1: some some our production folks in here to give us
8:01
Speaker 1: a heads up on that. Can you put it in in
8:04
Speaker 1: an SD card in the DVR and save it? I
8:06
Speaker 1: don't know. I just proposterity you need it because this
8:09
Speaker 1: is going to be a big moment. That's not our
8:13
Speaker 1: area of expertise. No, but we'll come back and get
8:17
Speaker 1: into an area that is for you. At least that's
8:20

Speaker 1: on the road to begin we two. They'll be home

Speaker 1: for the home opener against the Denver Broncos. Well this
11:09
Speaker 1: this Sunday, by the way, the Packers in the Saints
11:12
Speaker 1: will play at t I A A. Bank Field at
11:14
Speaker 1: a four kickoff time and we'll get to see some
11:17
Speaker 1: of that. Well, yeah, we'll be on post game radio, uh,
11:21
Speaker 1: doing our local call in show, the scoreboards Show on
11:24
Speaker 1: our flagship station tint XL. That should be over by
11:28
Speaker 1: about the second middle of the second quarter maybe, and
11:30
Speaker 1: we should you should be able to get a medium
11:33
Speaker 1: pass and then walk up stairs as Aaron Rodgers versus
11:37
Speaker 1: Jameis Winston. Right here, tickets are available by which is
11:40
Speaker 1: which is way cool? And And if and if and
11:43
Speaker 1: if I were a Jaguars fan, would I think would
11:46
Speaker 1: be a great way to spend a Sunday would be
11:48
Speaker 1: to come down here. If the gates would open up
11:51
Speaker 1: at one o'clock watch the game. I understand it. The
11:54
Speaker 1: Daily's place will be open one o'clock. I'd be awesome.
11:57
Speaker 1: That's cool. And then stick around and watch Aaron Rodgers.
12:00
Speaker 1: I mean, it's one of the great players in the NFL.
12:03
Speaker 1: And how many more years will he be playing for
12:05
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers you don't know. And then it's
12:07
Speaker 1: obviously the debut of Jameis Winston as the starter for
12:10
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints. I think that would be pretty cool.
12:12
Speaker 1: There are Saints graphics and words and fluor to lee
12:16
Speaker 1: all over the field right now. They painted the field
12:19
Speaker 1: today and Saints colors, so that all coming up this
12:22
Speaker 1: Sunday as well. Let's get to the Jaguars defense. We
12:25
Speaker 1: we know about the new on the Jaguars offense, and
12:28
Speaker 1: there's you know, looking at it, there could be eight
12:30
Speaker 1: starters back on offense this year, by the way, from
12:33
Speaker 1: that one in fifteen team a year ago. The big
12:35
Speaker 1: difference is the quarterback. But it's a different story on defense,
12:39
Speaker 1: a lot of new especially in the interior of the
12:41
Speaker 1: defensive line logs, the new linebacker as well, and Damian
12:45
Speaker 1: Wilson will hear from him coming up in the public
12:47
Speaker 1: Staelgate show him by the way, I really like Damien Wilson.
12:51
Speaker 1: And then you've got almost a full revamped secondary in
12:55
Speaker 1: the back end too, so a new coordinator, new scheme,
12:58
Speaker 1: all this is new. What in the world is this
13:00
Speaker 1: going to look like on Sunday. I think it's gonna
13:03
Speaker 1: look really good. I believe that because of the matchup
13:07
Speaker 1: of the Houston Texans offense. I think the Houston Texans
13:10
Speaker 1: offense with Tyrod Taylor and no Deshaun Watson, are going
13:12
Speaker 1: to come out and try to run the ball, and
13:15
Speaker 1: they're gonna stay committed to running the football, and that
13:17
Speaker 1: plays to what this defense is built to handle, which
13:20
Speaker 1: is a strong running attack. If you go back and
13:23
Speaker 1: you look at the preseason, the Jaguars defense had no
13:26
Speaker 1: problem whatsoever handling the running attack of the opponent. Now, look,
13:30
Speaker 1: they didn't have some starters playing in a lot of cases,
13:32
Speaker 1: and I get that, but being committed to the run
13:35
Speaker 1: as a mindset, and the Jaguars are clearly committed to it,
13:38
Speaker 1: and they made a huge commitment in the all season
13:40
Speaker 1: and free agency by bringing in better players and that
13:43
Speaker 1: will help. The addition of guys by the name of
13:46
Speaker 1: Malcolm Brown, the development of Devon Hamilton, uh Roy Robertson Harris,
13:53
Speaker 1: and then you add Damien Wilson in there at the linebacker,
13:56
Speaker 1: another bloody or nose linebacker to pair with Miles Jack.
14:00
Speaker 1: I mean, these guys can handle that. So I think
14:02
Speaker 1: it's gonna be tough sledding for the Houston Texans. And
14:06
Speaker 1: then you have also a safety that can play down
14:10
Speaker 1: in the box and Ray Shawn Jenkins, who did it
14:12
Speaker 1: very well by the way against the Cowboys. There's a
14:16
Speaker 1: little bit of intrigue as far as who's going to
14:18
Speaker 1: be the other starting safety, and my mind, I would
14:23
Speaker 1: stuff I have a choice between Wingered and Cisco. I'm
14:26
Speaker 1: I'm going with Andre Cisco. I'm committing to the I'm
14:29
Speaker 1: committing to the rookie because I think he gives something
14:35
Speaker 1: that you didn't get in the preseason. Takeaways. You didn't
14:39
Speaker 1: get one in the preseason. Compare that with the Texans,
14:44
Speaker 1: who their defensive coordinators Levy Smith and widely respected, doesn't
14:50
Speaker 1: do a whole lot of fancy things, but the one
14:53
Speaker 1: thing he has always emphasized is takeaways. They had like
14:57
Speaker 1: nine last year for the season that excellence dead. In
15:01
Speaker 1: the preseason alone, the Texans had tens. I mean that
15:05
Speaker 1: is I mean they had ten. The Jaguars didn't have one.
15:07
Speaker 1: So my point with Cisco is is that that's where
15:11
Speaker 1: you need to improve on that you didn't really do
15:13
Speaker 1: a great job of in the preseason with those impact
15:16
Speaker 1: plays where you affected the quarterback and may takeaways or
15:20
Speaker 1: created turnovers for your defense. That's something that was missing.
15:24
Speaker 1: That's something that has to get better. It starts with
15:28
Speaker 1: pass rush though. I mean, you're gonna get those balls
15:31
Speaker 1: in the back end, then you gotta kind of get
15:32
Speaker 1: home at some point, stop the run, force those passing situations,
15:36
Speaker 1: and get that pass rush going on the outside. Josh Allen,
15:40
Speaker 1: Caleb and Chason guys like that. That's uh, it's time
15:43
Speaker 1: to get that moving again. Well you hope, you hope.
15:45
Speaker 1: I mean that's that that's gonna be the challenge. I mean, really,
15:48
Speaker 1: that's that's the challenge for this defense this year. It's
15:52
Speaker 1: hard to go out in free agency and say, Okay,
15:54
Speaker 1: we're gonna sign this guy because he is a great
15:58
Speaker 1: pass rusher. I mean, how how many great pass rushers
16:01
Speaker 1: have you been able to acquire in freeance? I mean,
16:03
Speaker 1: Clay's Campbell doesn't just there's not ten of them walking
16:05
Speaker 1: around the street where you can just acquire them at
16:07
Speaker 1: any time, you know. So it's it's a very unique
16:10
Speaker 1: situation to be able to do that in free agency,
16:12
Speaker 1: and in free agency this year there were not a
16:14
Speaker 1: lot of those types. But the types that they got
16:17
Speaker 1: were good, solid, strong run defenders that are gonna make
16:20
Speaker 1: a defense get better and stop in the run to
16:22
Speaker 1: give yourself a chance in passing down. Those are the
16:26
Speaker 1: players that they were able to acquire. So Josh Allen, Calvan,
16:30
Speaker 1: Chase on jahad Ward has shown shown some flashes, but
16:33
Speaker 1: never has had a lot of big numbers. Roy Robertson
16:36
Speaker 1: Harris needs to continue to develop and and start to
16:39
Speaker 1: reach a higher level of play that he is pot
16:42
Speaker 1: is he's capable now, but that's where it needs to
16:45
Speaker 1: come from. The edges have got to be able to
16:48
Speaker 1: to force a lot of things for this defense if
16:50
Speaker 1: they're gonna generate a dominant pass rush. Let's come back
16:52
Speaker 1: in a moment. Plenty more ahead the first edition of
16:55
Speaker 1: the Urban Meyers Show on Jaguars Radio. This is iced
17:08
Speaker 1: Tea Stone Coast, Steve Austin and Attie ice I convinced
17:14
Speaker 1: the NFL teams to turn to cold water washing with
17:17
Speaker 1: Todd the NFL, your uniforms get dirty. Tide can handle
17:20
Speaker 1: it even in cold. Plus, if fans join in, they
17:23
Speaker 1: can save up to a hundred and fifty dollars on

Speaker 1: their energy bill. Looks like you just made the team.
17:28
Speaker 1: Rookie turned to cold with Tid and that's the bottom line.
17:32
Speaker 1: It's got to be tied energy saving based on averages
17:35
Speaker 1: pitching from hot to cold and non ag machines. So

19:28
Speaker 1: Glad you're along with us on the Urban Meyers Show
19:30
Speaker 1: j P. Shadrick with Jaguars analyst Jeff Logman. The Jaguars
19:34
Speaker 1: in the Houston Texans coming up this Sunday and Jaguars
19:37
Speaker 1: Game Day broadcasts are presented by Vistar Credit Union. DeShawn
19:43
Speaker 1: Watson is still a member of the Houston Texans, but
19:47
Speaker 1: he will not be participating in this weekend's football game
19:50
Speaker 1: against the Jaguars. In that situation has been topsy and turvy.
19:55
Speaker 1: To save the least, then it has been crazy. I
19:59
Speaker 1: mean really, I mean, the the the whole situation is crazy.
20:03
Speaker 1: I mean you have an all season to where he
20:06
Speaker 1: wasn't included in the conversations about who is going to
20:09
Speaker 1: be hired as the next general manager. Jack Easter by
20:12
Speaker 1: that whole thing came to light. I think it was
20:15
Speaker 1: an article by Sports Illustrated. Uh just I mean the
20:20
Speaker 1: craziness that was happening in Houston. Well, then all of
20:23
Speaker 1: a sudden they hire a new coach and then the
20:27
Speaker 1: civil and criminal allegations against DeShawn Watson happened. So sorry, Oh,
20:32
Speaker 1: the general manager that comes from the Patriots comes in
20:37
Speaker 1: and they're telling people were you know, they're not really
20:41
Speaker 1: giving them any update on what are they gonna do
20:43
Speaker 1: with Deshaun Watson, and they're trying to trade him. And
20:46
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson is there, he has a ten and a
20:48
Speaker 1: half million dollar salary and he's not practicing. He's not playing.
20:53
Speaker 1: One of the most interesting questions will be on Sunday
20:57
Speaker 1: from the Houston Texans perspective. Where's Deshaun Watson gonna watch
21:02
Speaker 1: the game from? About that? And they're gonna let him
21:07
Speaker 1: on the sideline? Is he be an active officially? Yeah,
21:11
Speaker 1: they've already said that he's gonna be inactive, and they're
21:13
Speaker 1: you know, they're trying to trade him. They're trying to
21:16
Speaker 1: to gain what is reported of being three first round
21:19
Speaker 1: picks and maybe a couple of seconds or maybe a
21:22
Speaker 1: second in there with it. And of course nobody's gonna
21:25
Speaker 1: trade for a quarterback who has some criminal civil litigation
21:31
Speaker 1: that's pending, and so it's just it's like it's everything
21:35
Speaker 1: is just put on hold, and they're just gonna pay
21:37
Speaker 1: him ten and a half million dollars for one of
21:39
Speaker 1: the best quarterbacks in the league to not play this year,
21:42
Speaker 1: which is it's just awkward. And then to add to
21:47
Speaker 1: the Texans awkwardness, I mean, so the Jackie Easterby thing,
21:50
Speaker 1: that Deshaun Watson, you go back last year, they trade
21:53
Speaker 1: away arguably the league's best receiver, and then just this
21:59
Speaker 1: week they put their kicker on i R and they
22:05
Speaker 1: signed a guy to the practice squad, Joey Sly, who
22:09
Speaker 1: probably will have to kick for you this week. And
22:11
Speaker 1: then you trade your best cornerback and Bradley Roby, who
22:16
Speaker 1: you just signed last year, you trade him to the
22:19
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints and you pay you pay seven million
22:25
Speaker 1: of his eight and change eight million and change salary
22:29
Speaker 1: to ship him off to the New Orleans Saints and
22:31
Speaker 1: get a third round pick. So you essentially paid seven
22:34
Speaker 1: million in cash to get a third round pick. I mean,
22:38
Speaker 1: the craziness if you're a Houston Texans fan right now, man,
22:43
Speaker 1: you're going through some stuff. I mean, and and right
22:47
Speaker 1: be a nice way to put it. Right, I will
22:49
Speaker 1: say this. I mean, we've been at least around here
22:53
Speaker 1: on that end of things, not quite to that the
22:57
Speaker 1: losses of the extreme lows, let's say that. Not quite
23:01
Speaker 1: as weird as some of that stuff, obviously, But um,
23:06
Speaker 1: and the Texans have been at the top of the
23:08
Speaker 1: division for a long time, and they've been on top
23:09
Speaker 1: of this Jaguars team for about fifteen years. Well they've
23:12
Speaker 1: been They've certainly better disorganization. I mean, the record speaks
23:16
Speaker 1: for itself, right, the Texans have had great success against
23:19
Speaker 1: the Jaguars. But and so in some ways it's almost
23:23
Speaker 1: a little he gained a little bit of pleasure from
23:25
Speaker 1: watching the dysfunction in Houston. But here's the thing. It
23:31
Speaker 1: doesn't feel good unless you beat him, right, I Mean,
23:35
Speaker 1: you talk about all the level of dysfunction that they
23:37
Speaker 1: have in Houston, but if they beat you, that's the
23:42
Speaker 1: same old story. Then at that point, all this was
23:47
Speaker 1: going on over here, So it's gonna be And and look,
23:52
Speaker 1: I think David Culley was the right coach for the
23:56
Speaker 1: situation in Houston to be able to handle some of this,
23:59
Speaker 1: because I mean, that's not an easy thing to handle,
24:02
Speaker 1: and Caul he's got a lot of respect around the league,
24:05
Speaker 1: and then Tyrod Taylor being a true professional, might have
24:10
Speaker 1: been the best option. So even though there's a lot
24:14
Speaker 1: of questions about the Texans and many people's claimed them
24:18
Speaker 1: to be a dumpster fire, they have made some good
24:22
Speaker 1: moves and namely, in my opinion, that the naming of
24:25
Speaker 1: the coach and then also bringing in Tyrod Taylor, who
24:29
Speaker 1: is a true professional, and that his reputation is impeccable
24:34
Speaker 1: from around the league. The way he handled the situations
24:38
Speaker 1: that he was putting in different places. I mean, you
24:40
Speaker 1: go back and you think about how he handled the
24:42
Speaker 1: situation in Buffalo, how he handled the situation with the Chargers,
24:47
Speaker 1: how he handled the situation with Cleveland. I mean, he's
24:51
Speaker 1: one of the I have so much respect for Tyrod
24:53
Speaker 1: Taylor for the true professional that he is shown to
24:56
Speaker 1: be in the National Football League, but that doesn't make
24:58
Speaker 1: him a great quarterback. Battle through stuck around the league
25:03
Speaker 1: and as now finding an opportunity down in Houston, let's
25:06

27:25
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer Show continues along the Jaguars Radio Network. Really comfortable,
27:33
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm excited about his progress, and you know,
27:35
Speaker 1: it's it's been a daily thing and it still is
27:37
Speaker 1: a daily, daily deal for him. Um, he puts a
27:40
Speaker 1: lot of effort and time into it. He really works
27:42
Speaker 1: his tail off. You know, there's there's so much that
27:44
Speaker 1: the quarterback has to do, and we take off of
27:47
Speaker 1: him as much as we can, you know, we gotta.
27:48
Speaker 1: We're very fortunate that we have a veteran center, you know,
27:51
Speaker 1: in Brandon Linder, who can take some of that stuff
27:54
Speaker 1: off of him, but you know, ultimately always falls back
27:56
Speaker 1: on the quarterback. So where he's at right now, I'm
27:58
Speaker 1: really excited about. That's Darryll Bevil, the offensive coordinator, speaking
28:02
Speaker 1: today and speaking about Trevor Lawrence, who as the preseason
28:07
Speaker 1: went along, got a little better and then the final
28:10
Speaker 1: time out against Dallas week three of the preseason, eleven
28:12
Speaker 1: or twelve passing couple of touchdowns and welcome back. This
28:15
Speaker 1: is the Urban Meyer Show j P. Shadrick with Jeff
28:17
Speaker 1: Lockerman and Darryl Bevil speaking today. He was the interim
28:21
Speaker 1: head coach in Detroit last year. He's been an offensive
28:23
Speaker 1: coordinator in the league for a long long time, so
28:26
Speaker 1: he understands how to get ready for a season, and
28:29
Speaker 1: he's worked with a lot of big name quarterbacks in
28:31
Speaker 1: the past. I'm I'm interested to see what this thing
28:36
Speaker 1: looks and feels like with him his influence certainly Brian
28:39
Speaker 1: Schottenheimer working alongside Urban Meyers in the lab with him too,
28:42
Speaker 1: don't don't mistake that. And then Trevor Lawrence, I'm sure
28:46
Speaker 1: has to say in this whole thing also, but that
28:48
Speaker 1: that gives That's part of what urban Meyer I wanted
28:52
Speaker 1: to do when he was putting the staff together. Have
28:54
Speaker 1: a mix of some college coaches that he knew from
28:57
Speaker 1: the past or had relationships with somebody that strong he
29:00
Speaker 1: knew them for some of the position groups, But when
29:02
Speaker 1: it comes to coordinators, I think he really wanted to
29:06
Speaker 1: go after NFL type guys. And Darryl Bevil is a
29:09
Speaker 1: guy who's been around for a long time. Well, he's
29:11
Speaker 1: got a lot of respect and he's worked with some
29:14
Speaker 1: of the best quarterbacks in the league. And I think
29:16
Speaker 1: that's one of the main reasons why that he was hired,
29:21
Speaker 1: because when you have a young quarterback, you want to
29:23
Speaker 1: make sure that you give that young quarterback all the
29:26
Speaker 1: tools that you can. And Bevil and Schottenheimer are both
29:30
Speaker 1: considered high end quarterback mentors, and that's what it's all about.
29:35
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't draft somebody first overall and then
29:39
Speaker 1: not provide the best people around that talent to give
29:44
Speaker 1: him the best chance to succeed. And so that that
29:47
Speaker 1: I think was was one of the smartest moves that
29:49
Speaker 1: he made on his staff. Let's come back in a moment.
29:52
Speaker 1: We'll hear from head coach Urban Meyer on the Urban

Speaker 1: along the Jaguars Radio Network, The Urban Meyer Show, presented
32:29
Speaker 1: by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles
32:32
Speaker 1: JP Shadrick, Jeff Logman alongside and we welcome head coach
32:38
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer on the program. Welcome to your show, Coach.
32:41
Speaker 1: How's it going. It good to be with you guys.
32:43
Speaker 1: It's going very well, Iran. This week the Houston Texans
32:47
Speaker 1: in much like they facing you, you're facing them with
32:50
Speaker 1: a staff that's got a lot of newness to it.
32:53
Speaker 1: How much does that kind of play into your game
32:56
Speaker 1: plan this week with some maybe things that will be
32:59
Speaker 1: unknown in the opening week. I think, regardless of the
33:02
Speaker 1: coaching staff, the first the first few weeks. I know
33:06
Speaker 1: this that way in college and uh, the research I've
33:09
Speaker 1: done is that way in the NFL because everybody spends
33:11
Speaker 1: their off season. If it's an established staff, they're always
33:14
Speaker 1: trying to find new things in new ways to do things.
33:16
Speaker 1: And then obviously it's new coaching staff. You know, there's
33:20
Speaker 1: all there's a complete NEWNIST offense, defensive kicking, so you
33:23
Speaker 1: have to be somewhat prepared for the unknown. But there's
33:27
Speaker 1: also great tendencies, you know, when you look, for example,
33:30
Speaker 1: at the Houston Texans, Lovey Smith is pretty standard what
33:32
Speaker 1: he does. And by the way, he's really good at
33:35
Speaker 1: what he does. That's very uh not at you know,
33:37
Speaker 1: there's certain defenses you face are all over the planet.
33:40
Speaker 1: He's not. You know. They believe in great effort, great technique,
33:43
Speaker 1: creating a turnovers and stopping what you do well. And
33:47
Speaker 1: that's been his history. I coached against him when he's
33:49
Speaker 1: at Illinois, and then our other coaches have coached against
33:52
Speaker 1: him and done his research, so that that's the kind
33:53
Speaker 1: of stuff you look for, Reven. We know about your
33:56
Speaker 1: attention to detail. You talked about it earlier this week
33:59
Speaker 1: in the plan ends in the tip sheets, not in
34:01
Speaker 1: the eyes, crossing the teas and everything. How much of
34:04
Speaker 1: an adjustment is that for your assistant coaches that maybe
34:08
Speaker 1: have not worked with you before, to get used to
34:10
Speaker 1: your method of preparation. And at what point do you
34:13
Speaker 1: put it down and say, you know what, we're ready,
34:15
Speaker 1: We're ready for one oh five pm on Sunday. I
34:19
Speaker 1: think it was an adjustment. I think you'd have to
34:21
Speaker 1: ask our coaches. But it's uh, you know, I believe
34:23
Speaker 1: in doing things a certain way, and you know I don't.
34:27
Speaker 1: I don't want to say it's maybe a lot different
34:29
Speaker 1: than the NFL, but from what I witnessed it, it
34:31
Speaker 1: has been I've learned a lot from our former players.
34:34
Speaker 1: I want to make it user friendly. You know, when
34:37
Speaker 1: I hear, well, he's a pro. Yeah, you know, Brandan
34:39
Speaker 1: Lennar is a pro. So is Andrew Norwell. But d J. Shark, Laviska,
34:43
Speaker 1: James Robinson, and then all our rookies. Those guys are
34:46
Speaker 1: young players. You know, they're young players. So I don't
34:49
Speaker 1: want to hear a whole lot about well, they're you know,
34:50
Speaker 1: they're pros. Yes, they're pros, and they get paid for
34:53
Speaker 1: what they do. But it's our job to have them
34:55
Speaker 1: ready and make it I use the term user friendly.
34:58
Speaker 1: One of the things that I'm most looking forward to
35:01
Speaker 1: your young quarterback. You know, you watch him out throughout
35:03
Speaker 1: the preseason. You see how he handles himself. You hear
35:07
Speaker 1: some of the glowing comments coming from you urban from
35:09
Speaker 1: your coaching staff that he's ready for this. That's got
35:13
Speaker 1: to be an exciting moment to be able to coach
35:15
Speaker 1: a young quarterback like Trevor Lawrence in his first game ever. Yeah,
35:18
Speaker 1: so excited, and I was. I'm very excited to see
35:21
Speaker 1: him we all were against Dallas. You know, the first
35:24
Speaker 1: game we just didn't play much, We didn't do much,
35:27
Speaker 1: and I think he only got two series and then
35:28
Speaker 1: and really disappointed against the Saints, you know, not with Trevor.
35:32
Speaker 1: Just overall, we didn't move the ball, we're throwing out,
35:34
Speaker 1: We tried to establish the run and didn't. And then,
35:37
Speaker 1: you know, it's amazing. One thing I'm still getting used
35:40
Speaker 1: to just how fast these games go. You know, you
35:42
Speaker 1: only get sixties some plays the clock. You know, it
35:45
Speaker 1: seems like it never stops. So we really worked hard
35:48
Speaker 1: to get him success against the Dallas Cowboys, and he
35:52
Speaker 1: did and he you know, he felt good about himself.
35:54
Speaker 1: That position is so unique. You guys know that that.
35:57
Speaker 1: You know, you got to get some confidence, you gotta
35:59
Speaker 1: get some rhythm in a quarterback. Oh so important for
36:02
Speaker 1: him to gain the confidence that I'm sure that he
36:04
Speaker 1: did in Dallas. One of the things I think that's
36:07
Speaker 1: curious is that a lot of people thought maybe with
36:09
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence you would see kind of some of that
36:11
Speaker 1: Clemson all offense to read option, taking advantage of some
36:14
Speaker 1: of his mobility and incorporating that into his offense, especially
36:19
Speaker 1: the first year in the National Football League to help
36:21
Speaker 1: that adjustment period, and many people question, would you do
36:24
Speaker 1: that because it exposes him to more injury? What's your
36:26
Speaker 1: thoughts on that. The good thing about the spread option
36:31
Speaker 1: that we've done so long and so is Clempson. There's
36:33
Speaker 1: ways to do it. So he's not running, and it's
36:35
Speaker 1: called r p O s and reliefs, and he's had
36:37
Speaker 1: some success against Dallas. Some of the quick throws you see,
36:41
Speaker 1: like the lavisca that is nothing more than read option
36:44
Speaker 1: football only instead of running is throwing. So yeah, we're
36:47
Speaker 1: a very leary. You know, I've had a history of
36:49
Speaker 1: if we have a runner, which by the way, Trevor
36:52
Speaker 1: would be a phenomenal runner, but he's also, you know,
36:55
Speaker 1: the first pick in the overall draft, so shot, i'd
36:57
Speaker 1: probably get a phone call from shots they what the hell,
36:59
Speaker 1: what the heck you do one? Uh So I don't
37:01
Speaker 1: see many direct runs, but yeah, we're gonna utilize what
37:04
Speaker 1: he does well, and I try to keep my harm's way. Hey,
37:07
Speaker 1: co German wire with us on the Urban Meyers Show.
37:10
Speaker 1: All five offensive lineman available this week, and you know
37:14
Speaker 1: it's been a talking point all offseason. Everybody's back, so
37:17
Speaker 1: there's got to be confidence in them, especially in the
37:20
Speaker 1: run game, and then moving forward on this offensive line,
37:23
Speaker 1: a real strength of this offense. Yeah, top six Actually,
37:26
Speaker 1: Bartsch has come on, really, come on. You know when
37:28
Speaker 1: Andrew Nora went down, that was a little bit of
37:31
Speaker 1: a blessing in disguise because you know Andrew, who played
37:33
Speaker 1: for me at has Stadies, a veteran player, has been
37:36
Speaker 1: a legal a long time and to have a good
37:38
Speaker 1: solid back up there, Uh, he really developed over the
37:41
Speaker 1: last three weeks. So we feel very good about the
37:43
Speaker 1: top six. UM. I actually talked to the offense line.
37:46
Speaker 1: You know, we decided made a decision Trent and I
37:49
Speaker 1: to go with him, and you know, there was some pushback.
37:52
Speaker 1: I remember people asking and at times the offensive line
37:55
Speaker 1: did not play great last year, but a lot of
37:58
Speaker 1: positions they didn't play great. So I don't believe it
38:01
Speaker 1: was bad players. I don't believe bad coaching. They just
38:03
Speaker 1: didn't play her well. So we've got to get that fixed. Um.
38:06
Speaker 1: And as far as what we're asking of them, they've
38:09
Speaker 1: been really good since we've been here. Urban will come
38:13
Speaker 1: back in a moment and flip it around to the
38:14

41:40
Speaker 1: J P. Shadrick with Jeff Lagoman and head coach Urban Meyer.
41:43
Speaker 1: The Jaguars in the Houston, Texans coming up at one
41:46
Speaker 1: oh five officially Eastern Time and NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas.
41:50
Speaker 1: It's week one kickoff weekend and coach, it's time to
41:54
Speaker 1: unleash this Jaguars revamped defense. Joe Cullen is in his
41:58
Speaker 1: first opportunity as a defensive nad are eating on him
42:00
Speaker 1: for a long time though, and he talked today about
42:04
Speaker 1: the different packages and different personnel groupings that are available
42:07
Speaker 1: in options for this Jaguars defense. I'm curious, as an
42:11
Speaker 1: offensive minded coach yourself, how challenging is that for the
42:14
Speaker 1: opposition to prepare for so many packages and groupings that
42:18
Speaker 1: a defense can throw out. Well, that was one of
42:20
Speaker 1: the reasons I hired Joe. Joe, I respect him as
42:23
Speaker 1: a coach and and I really thought I wanted him
42:25
Speaker 1: on our staff. I knew I wanted him on our staff.
42:28
Speaker 1: I've always studied the Baltimore Ravens defense. I've had great respect.
42:31
Speaker 1: You look at the lineage of who's coached in that
42:33
Speaker 1: defense over the years, tremendous coaches and their style. Is
42:37
Speaker 1: very hard to prepare for it, Like you just said,
42:39
Speaker 1: many different blitz packages, personnel groupings and you'll see everything. Uh.
42:44
Speaker 1: And then I interviewed Joe, and typical you don't want
42:47
Speaker 1: to stereotape people, but typical d line coaches are really
42:51
Speaker 1: they live in a box. They live in that defensive front,
42:53
Speaker 1: but they don't really understand the whole defense. And he
42:55
Speaker 1: kind of blew myself and Chris ashes an interview as well,
42:58
Speaker 1: and blew Suway is ours his knowledge of that defense,
43:02
Speaker 1: and that's the defense I wanted. So we went with them.
43:04
Speaker 1: And Uh, to answer your question, it's very difficult urban
43:08
Speaker 1: this week you're facing a Texans offense that when you
43:11
Speaker 1: just look at the roster, anytime the team's got five
43:13
Speaker 1: running backs on the active roster, you probably can expect
43:16
Speaker 1: one thing. They're gonna come out and try to run
43:18
Speaker 1: the football against your defense. That's one of our strengths.
43:21
Speaker 1: Of the one thing you look at the what consistently
43:24
Speaker 1: happened in the preseason as we stopped the run for
43:27
Speaker 1: three straight games. You know, we we do it of
43:30
Speaker 1: ride of ways and number one as we load the box.
43:32
Speaker 1: So we're gonna put a lot of pressure on the corners.
43:34
Speaker 1: And that's one of the reasons we went out and
43:35
Speaker 1: got Tyson in the draft, Tyson Campbell and Shack Griffin
43:39
Speaker 1: in free agency, and then we got Ray j Ray
43:41
Speaker 1: Sean Jenkins. We had to rebuild that back end of
43:44
Speaker 1: our defense, and because we knew that the style of
43:47
Speaker 1: defense we're gonna play, there's gonna be a lot of
43:49
Speaker 1: pressure on those guys. They've got a veteran quarterback and
43:52
Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor, he hasn't had a whole lot of starts recently.
43:56
Speaker 1: What do you see from him and what do you
43:57
Speaker 1: expect from him? Do you go back and obviously break
43:59
Speaker 1: down a film when he was a starter Buffalo, maybe
44:01
Speaker 1: even a little bit of film from the preseason when
44:04
Speaker 1: he was with the Chargers, because there's plenty of film
44:07
Speaker 1: to watch on him. You just might have to go
44:08
Speaker 1: back quite a few years. Yeah, it's ironic. I watched
44:11
Speaker 1: a lot of the Buffalo because I interviewed a coach
44:13
Speaker 1: from that staff. Back when Tyrod had was exceptional, I
44:17
Speaker 1: mean had great success. It was true spread offense. And
44:21
Speaker 1: that's what scares me because I know what I thought
44:23
Speaker 1: a quarterback can do. You know, they have not run
44:25
Speaker 1: him as much of late. He's a little older now
44:28
Speaker 1: than he was with the Buffalo, but he is a
44:30
Speaker 1: guy that I've always had tremendous respect for. And any
44:33
Speaker 1: any time a guy can hurt you with his legs,
44:35
Speaker 1: that's just historically in college and pro that's a tough
44:39
Speaker 1: guy to defend. He can do both run in thro now.
44:42
Speaker 1: Watching the last preseason game that he played in, there
44:44
Speaker 1: were a couple of players in where he extended the play,
44:46
Speaker 1: got outside the pocket, end up running. But he's been
44:49
Speaker 1: a guy that's been hurting people in the past by
44:51
Speaker 1: extending plays. And he had one play in particular, and
44:53
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if you would remember an urban where
44:55
Speaker 1: he he gets pressure from a little et game on
44:58
Speaker 1: his right side and he gets or he gets pressure
45:00
Speaker 1: from the right tackle getting pushed in his lap, he
45:02
Speaker 1: actually jumps back, lands on his right legs, somehow ends
45:06
Speaker 1: up going all the way to his left. And I
45:08
Speaker 1: just went to myself, there's not many people that are
45:10
Speaker 1: athletically on this planet that can do that. He actually
45:14
Speaker 1: looked like he got hurt. You know. I saw the
45:16
Speaker 1: play too, and I slowed it down. I thought, you know,
45:18
Speaker 1: most people would probably JP would probably blow his a
45:21
Speaker 1: c l out there. He rallied back and made a play.
45:25
Speaker 1: And so that's what that's what scares you. And that's
45:27
Speaker 1: where your discipline of your defensive line. You hear this
45:29
Speaker 1: quite often standy rush lines. You know, there's certain quarterbacks
45:33
Speaker 1: that are statues and you can lose contain and this
45:36
Speaker 1: guy you cannot do that. You gotta stay your rush lines. Urban,
45:40
Speaker 1: tell us about Josh Allen so far and your interactions
45:43
Speaker 1: with him and his preseason and now it is a
45:47
Speaker 1: big year for Josh now going to two year number
45:50
Speaker 1: three for him as an NFL football player. Well, we're fortunate,
45:53
Speaker 1: you know. And that's what I told a shot that
45:56
Speaker 1: one of the most appealing places. The core players are
45:58
Speaker 1: good players and they're even better of people. And Josh
46:01
Speaker 1: Allen checks the box. He's a great father, a great husband.
46:04
Speaker 1: He wants to be in Jacksonville, he wants to be coached.
46:06
Speaker 1: He was two forty five pounds now he's to sixty
46:09
Speaker 1: one to sixty two. He's strong, he's healthy. Obviously had
46:13
Speaker 1: that two week COVID where he had to sit out
46:15
Speaker 1: for two weeks, which you know once he might be
46:16
Speaker 1: blessing where he's fresh. You know, he's ready to go
46:19
Speaker 1: rock and roll. But the correlation between work ethic, talent
46:23
Speaker 1: and being a great person pretty high, high probability. This
46:27
Speaker 1: guy is gonna be a great player. Urban, I thought,
46:30
Speaker 1: you know, you talk about Josh and you talk about
46:32
Speaker 1: great family, etcetera. And got a chance to see the
46:36
Speaker 1: video which was released on Jaguar social media where you
46:39
Speaker 1: named the captains, and I thought it was such a
46:40
Speaker 1: unique way to let the players on your roster know
46:44
Speaker 1: who the captains were by involving their families. I thought
46:47
Speaker 1: it was awesome. Where what does that come from in
46:50
Speaker 1: your history and and where did you come up with
46:52
Speaker 1: that idea of involving the family, because I think it
46:54
Speaker 1: made it an incredibly special moment for the family and
46:57
Speaker 1: the players. We like to involve our families, and I
47:00
Speaker 1: hire people around our organization and and Amy Palsi, who
47:04
Speaker 1: you guys know very well, in charge of our communications
47:07
Speaker 1: and pr she's that she came to me and she
47:09
Speaker 1: knows how I am about this. A lot of people
47:11
Speaker 1: get into coaching for a lot of reasons, and I
47:13
Speaker 1: do it because relationship with players. And I hear well
47:16
Speaker 1: the NFL it's a business, and it certainly is a business.
47:19
Speaker 1: I get that. But the minute that player becomes you know,
47:22
Speaker 1: number forty one to me instead of Josh Allen, I'm
47:25
Speaker 1: out of coaching. I don't want to do that anymore.
47:26
Speaker 1: I like to get to know their families. I like
47:28
Speaker 1: to know Caitlin and he just had a baby a
47:30
Speaker 1: couple of months ago, and and uh, that's what we're
47:33
Speaker 1: all about here in Jacksville. But that was Amy Palasick's
47:35
Speaker 1: ID idea and the players loved it. Let's come back
47:39
Speaker 1: in a moment. One final segment with head coach Urban

Speaker 1: you got me in a good mood today because we
51:57
Speaker 1: had an excellent practice. Cloud cover came over. I got
52:00
Speaker 1: on talking to Brandon Linder, and remember that from the
52:02
Speaker 1: Gamesville days. How is your practice? Well, when it's eighty
52:05
Speaker 1: one and cloudy, it's much better than when it's heat
52:08
Speaker 1: index one twelve, So it was it was a really
52:10
Speaker 1: good day. Attitudes were good. Execution is actually pretty good too.
52:14
Speaker 1: But one of the things that I think is always continuous,
52:16
Speaker 1: whether it's high school, college, the pros, opening day, or
52:21
Speaker 1: the opening kickoff weekend, always kind of as a player,
52:24
Speaker 1: a little hyped up sometimes and and as a coach,
52:27
Speaker 1: I'm sure you've experienced that as well. How do you
52:30
Speaker 1: try to help your team manage that to where it
52:34
Speaker 1: doesn't affect their player early in a ball game. Well,
52:36
Speaker 1: I'm not an expert at other sports, but football is
52:39
Speaker 1: the one sport where energy is actually really good. You know,
52:42
Speaker 1: golf and you know some other sports that we know
52:45
Speaker 1: it's it's you can't attack baseball and golf like that.
52:48
Speaker 1: But football is kind of an energy driven sports. So
52:51
Speaker 1: I've never really let it go, you know, just be smart. Um.
52:55
Speaker 1: You know, our whole philosophy and cultures built on four
52:59
Speaker 1: to six A two B plus two. So with that
53:02
Speaker 1: comes some mistakes once a while, you know what, But
53:04
Speaker 1: I really believe and so does our organization. Effort overcomes mistakes.
53:09
Speaker 1: We're gonna be an effort based team and that uh,
53:11
Speaker 1: that involves energy. So you know, I hope we're coming
53:15
Speaker 1: come out of our shoes, be quite honest with you.
53:18
Speaker 1: One thing that that doesn't require energy, requires a little
53:21
Speaker 1: bit more brain power, a little different for you at
53:24
Speaker 1: the pro level. You gotta figure out who's gonna wear
53:26
Speaker 1: one of the jerseys on game day? How has that
53:28
Speaker 1: been for you this week? And trying to look ahead
53:32
Speaker 1: and too, I guess you would say game plan, who's
53:35
Speaker 1: gonna be active? And I'm sure special teams has got
53:38
Speaker 1: to be a huge part of that. Well, that's something
53:40
Speaker 1: I've spent an inordent amount of time on from last
53:43
Speaker 1: you know, a year, a year in uh six eight
53:45
Speaker 1: months now eight months now, and that was just stunning.
53:48
Speaker 1: The roster management and Trent has been off off awful, helpful,
53:52
Speaker 1: and so is Nick Sorenson, our special teams comer in
53:54
Speaker 1: Joe and Bevel are two coordinators, so that's gonna be
53:58
Speaker 1: We got it down about two or three guys now.
54:00
Speaker 1: Really just too that we have to make a final
54:02
Speaker 1: call on here tomorrow and that's who. You know, it
54:04
Speaker 1: depends how practice goes. But you know, when you start
54:07
Speaker 1: saying fifty three, that's small enough. And then all by
54:09
Speaker 1: the way, you got top five guys on the shoulder
54:11
Speaker 1: and say they can't play. UM. So much goes into that,
54:14
Speaker 1: you know, health of team, the style of offense defense
54:17
Speaker 1: you're playing. And then most importantly in my mind and
54:20
Speaker 1: our organization is special teams value. And then you add
54:24
Speaker 1: on top of that your six team members of the
54:26
Speaker 1: practice squad, which you can dip into that probably even
54:30
Speaker 1: I don't want to say complicates it more, but it
54:32
Speaker 1: certainly adds to the equation. It does, But it just
54:35
Speaker 1: it's got to be very intentional about how you go
54:37
Speaker 1: about your business. Is there premium placed on special teams
54:39
Speaker 1: here in Jacksonville? That's a capitol. Yes, you know underline
54:42
Speaker 1: it bolted and we're gonna be good on special teams.
54:45
Speaker 1: And how do you do that? You have to have
54:47
Speaker 1: players with value. Addressing urban You've discussed this a little
54:50
Speaker 1: bit in the preseason, and we're gonna see it live
54:54
Speaker 1: for the first time. The game management of the NFL
54:57
Speaker 1: experience here two minute drills, UM, the challenge, flags that
55:02
Speaker 1: hash marks are different. Have you covered all those bases?
55:06
Speaker 1: Are you confident in the operation of the coaching staff
55:09
Speaker 1: and everything in those regards for the game. We have
55:12
Speaker 1: a very good system set up here. One I inherited.
55:15
Speaker 1: You know, Zach, who works in our staff, was in
55:19
Speaker 1: charge of the challenge flag and he's really elevated himself
55:22
Speaker 1: to be very responsible. I've met with him many, many times.
55:25
Speaker 1: We actually have practiced it several times. That's one of
55:28
Speaker 1: the reasons I put Darryl Bevil upstairs because it's a
55:32
Speaker 1: you know, it's a it's a quiet environment. You know,
55:34
Speaker 1: I've done this long enough to know that on the
55:36
Speaker 1: field it's loud, it's chaotic, there's people everywhere, especially you know.
55:40
Speaker 1: You just you have to have someone in a controlled
55:42
Speaker 1: environment that has a hand on things and help you.
55:46
Speaker 1: And that's gonna be Darryl Bevil and that's gonna be Zack.
55:48
Speaker 1: They're both upstairs in a quiet environment, and obviously I
55:51
Speaker 1: gotta make the decisions. But the analytics piece, they're firing
55:55
Speaker 1: it across the headsets as we're going, you know, and
55:57
Speaker 1: we've practiced it, you know, in three games. We haven't
56:00
Speaker 1: to do much in the three games, but we've actually
56:01
Speaker 1: been rehearsing over the headsets. Urban great stuff. We appreciate
56:07
Speaker 1: the time, and we'll catch you again after the game
56:10
Speaker 1: after hopefully we'll win in Houston in Week one and
56:13
Speaker 1: good luck to you. Yeah, great to be with you guys.
56:15
Speaker 1: Head coach Urban Meyer joining us on The Urban Meyers
56:18
Speaker 1: Show the first edition of the one campaign and uh,
56:23
Speaker 1: I was excited going into it now and now we're
56:26
Speaker 1: really really ready to go to Houston in Week one.
56:28
Speaker 1: Lost's it's it's fun listening to him to talk about
56:31
Speaker 1: how so much goes into it because you know, I mean,
56:34
Speaker 1: when you when you think about it, there's a there's
56:36
Speaker 1: a famous clip that I always kind of go back
56:38
Speaker 1: to at this time of year, and it's I'm a
56:40
Speaker 1: huge NFL films junkie, love the history of the game,
56:43
Speaker 1: and it's Bill Parcel's telling his offensive line at the
56:45
Speaker 1: bench that that's was why you guys lifted all them weights.
56:48
Speaker 1: This is why you guys did all that do use
56:51
Speaker 1: some lexible tives, okay, and said, this is what it's
56:53
Speaker 1: all about, I mean, and that's what this There's been
56:56
Speaker 1: a lot of work that a lot of people have
56:58
Speaker 1: contributed to this organization in and around the league to
57:02
Speaker 1: make things happen. Because here on tonight for the Bucks
57:06
Speaker 1: and the Cowboys, and then also on Sunday, this is
57:08
Speaker 1: when it counts. I mean, this is when they can't
57:09
Speaker 1: start keeping score. It's for real. And you know, let's
57:12
Speaker 1: be quite honest with you, there's a lot of folks
57:14
Speaker 1: that are like, what is he doing going to the NFL.
57:18
Speaker 1: I mean it's a little bit of a risk, a
57:20
Speaker 1: big risk. Looks. A lot of guys don't performpetition as
57:23
Speaker 1: competitions what it is, and and that's what it's about.
57:26
Speaker 1: And then when when you love a game and you
57:28
Speaker 1: want to play in a game, and you want to
57:30
Speaker 1: compete in a game, it doesn't matter where it is. JP.
57:33
Speaker 1: If if me and you are playing checkers, you know,
57:35
Speaker 1: let's let's go. It's time. It's time to be competitive. Man,
57:38
Speaker 1: let's go. According to Urban, I better not jump up
57:41
Speaker 1: and down during that checkers game, I might tear an
57:42
Speaker 1: a c l oh you would in a minute on
57:44
Speaker 1: that play. You would have had no chance of having
57:46
Speaker 1: your knee intact. I can tell you that Tyrod Taylor
57:49
Speaker 1: is a different athlete now. And it's it's gonna be
57:51
Speaker 1: interesting to watch how the reception is in Houston too,
57:55
Speaker 1: because they've undergone quite a bit in the off season,
57:58
Speaker 1: and how all the fans end up embracing their team.
58:01
Speaker 1: How will they embrace the situation with Tyrod Taylor. Uh,
58:05
Speaker 1: that that's gonna be I think a point of curiosity
58:08
Speaker 1: for me. That's a great question you posed earlier. Where
58:10
Speaker 1: is DeShawn watching the game? Is he in the booth upstairs?
58:13
Speaker 1: Is he? I guarantee this. I guarantee this. They're not
58:17
Speaker 1: going to show him on the JumboTron or the big
58:20
Speaker 1: video screen inside Reliance Stadium or NRG Stadium, whatever it is. Now. Yeah,
58:25
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that is They're trying to make that
58:27
Speaker 1: story kind of just stay stay by the wayside. Well,
58:31
Speaker 1: I was going to be there until it's not there anymore.
58:33
Speaker 1: That's how that's going to be. But no matter if
58:35
Speaker 1: they show him or not, that is the story of
58:37
Speaker 1: the Texans, at least early in the season, and hopefully
58:39
Speaker 1: the Jaguars can go in there and take advantage and
58:42
Speaker 1: get a win as they start off this campaign a
58:45
Speaker 1: lot of new of course, you heard from ourn Meyer
58:47
Speaker 1: just there, Trevor Lawrence making his NFL debut, this brand
58:51
Speaker 1: new Jaguars defense. JP this seriously, that mean, it's one
58:56
Speaker 1: of the biggest moments in franchise history when you take
58:58
Speaker 1: out the playoff games that I was a part of
59:01
Speaker 1: a couple of them. Okay, when you have a franchise
59:04
Speaker 1: quarterback that has the potential that this is one of
59:06
Speaker 1: the biggest moments of franchise history, I mean, this is
59:08
Speaker 1: a moment that I'm certainly anxiously looking forward to, and
