• 0:32
  Speaker 1: A short week, Well, this is the whirlwind, I'm sure
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: after the Sunday game and then right back to work coach,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: to get ready for Thursday night football. The schedule has
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: to be condensed this week. Yeah, I talked to a
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: lot of our players. I've never done Sunday Thursday. I've
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: done Saturday Thursday. And that's tough enough. And our guys
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: had a hot day, a tough game, and they played
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: hard in that game. And we've got to get their
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: legs back and got to get them healthy read it
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: for this one. Yeah. There, there's probably not a whole
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: lot you and do Urban from a game plan standpoint,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: is there because most coaches kind of take the philosophy, Hey, look,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: let's just be who we are and try to play
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: fast on a Thursday night. Well, you look at what
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: you've done and how does it fit in the defense
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: you're getting ready to play. That's offensively and then defensively
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the same. You know what, what calls you already have
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: if you're certainly not going to put a lot of
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: new stuff in a game like this, because that's not
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: fair to the players. So, uh, offensive football, a lot
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: of times you practice a lot of things that don't
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: get called just the situational piece of the game. Uh.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: You know, the Cardinals came out and played a much
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: different defense on third down than they show in the past.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: So there's some things we still have that we have
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: not used. The Trevor and the receivers, et cetera of practice.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: We'll dig deep into this Thursday night football game coming
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: up in just a little bit. Coach, let's touch back
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: on the last game. The the end of that third
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: quarter is where that game against the Cardinals really turned
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: a nine point lead, and then it goes quickly. Seven
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: scrimmage snaps later, it's a five point deficit. Unfortunately, that's
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: where this thing turned. What were some the reasons behind
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: that The final few minutes of that third quarter, Well,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: the third quarter was ours. You know. It was uh
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: just a dominant performance really by the offensive line and
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: running backs. I think it was an eight play drive.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Ran the ball every time, the backford jump cutting and
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: get their pads parallel to line of scrimmage and running hard.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Um and then the offensive line. You know, Cam Robinson's
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: playing a very high level right now, and as well
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: as their center and Linda and uh you know, they
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: had number fifty five and they had J. J. Watt.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: J J. Watt was uh forced the entire game, but
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: really fifty Chandler Jones who was had forced acts I
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: believe against Tennessee and just a dominant pass rusher. Uh,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Cam really did a nice job against him and protected
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: our quarterback. And there was a knockout punch. You know,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: it's something that I want to be aggressive. The knockout
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: punch was gonna be a flee flicker and I don't
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: want to relive it. For By the way, our Jaguar
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: fans were fantastic that week. I want to talk about
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: that s afterwards. But uh, um, you know, we had
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: a little pressure. DJ Shark was behind the defense, and
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: that's one it's uh, you know, you wanted to like
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: to have back well and and urban you talk about
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Cam Robinson, I think you know and acteen every game
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: that Cam has ever played, I thought it was his
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: best game as professional. Channel Jones is a marvelous football
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: player and I think certainly a freakish atlee athlete with
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: over a hundred career sacks. And his performance was outstanding.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: And when you talk about the fans, it really got
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: going there in the second quarter when your offense was
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: they had to put a drive together. Trevor was six
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: of six on the drive. You go down, you hit
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: a touchdown, and then all of a sudden you have
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: the big return right before the half. I mean, things
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: just exploded in the stadium and it was awesome. Well,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: the coach of the Cardinals I know from the college
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: ranks Kingsbury and and uh, you know, we don't know
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: what know each other well, but he made a comment
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: to me, uh you know, uh, he actually called him
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: after the game, and you know he says, we've been
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: there before, but our players, myself, our staff, the atmosphere
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: in the bank and the crowd and the electricity and
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: the players playing as hard as they were. He said, there,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: you know, uh, they almost took him by a storm,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: and it did. You know if we if we take
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: care of the football and and scoring that drive, you know,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: that would have been probably a different outcome. But regardless, Uh,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: this is a build. We're building a good team. We're building,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: uh hopefully we're building a culture that the nine oh
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: four is very proud of. I know one thing, and
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: there was as far as effort, they laid it on
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: the on the field for everybody and uh, my gosh,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: that d nine yard kickoff or a field goal return,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: you know, fourteen points within ten seconds, and then uh
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: come out with an a play drive, you know, a
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: play drive and slam it right at you know, one
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: of the better defenses out there. Um, there's some good
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: stuff coming. I thought it was interesting. You know, you
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: have an opportunity the opponent did to kick a sixty
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: eight yard field goal and you sent out Jamal Agnew
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: to line up deep in the end zone and he
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: has the return. Thought it was interesting the decision to
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: do that because you have a coverage unit, which basically
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: consists of six offensive line and two tight ends and
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: a long snapper and two specialists, which is not exactly
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: the optimum coverage unit. Do you guys work on a
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: return in that situation as far as Okay, we're gonna
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: go wall left or we're gonna go wall right, or
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: or do you have a plan in place, or is
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: it hey just try to get a block. No, no, no,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: it's a it's a wall return. It's something that if
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: you remember Alabama lost to Auburn and the kick six
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: or whatever, and I remember, after so much of the
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: coaching world is reactionary to what happens. Um to say
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: that we've worked on that before that not really, you know.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: And uh but I think everybody from that point forward,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: from the field goal block unit, working the return to
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: your what you just mentioned, you have a bunch of
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: players on there never tackled anyone. You know. When I
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: was in college, I put some defensive ends, started putting
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: them at this wing, and and we do that once
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: in a while here. Uh, certainly on the long field
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: goal because I mean, you know, I got a feeling, uh,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Norwell is not going to do very well in open
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: field tackling, and uh so you just have to you know,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: that was a situation he came up. We were prepared
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Nick Sorenson, our special teams coordinator, and obviously the efforts
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Malcolm Brown, uh not the guy, I mean, made a
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: great effort. Really, the whole unit made a great effort.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: It was it was really good. Do you learn something
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: from that from the other perspective that said, hey, look,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: if we're ever in the position at the end of
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: the half or or maybe at some critical point of
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: the game, we're gonna try a long field goal, that
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: maybe we change some of the people that are on
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: or in the field goal protection unit to maybe get
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: a little bit better coverage for along field goal if
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: it ends up shore. Yeah, that's that's a tricky thing
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: because obviously that's you know, those are the low trajectory.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: It kicks too, so you have to be firm. You know.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: That's a that's one of those tough situations that you
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: talk through, you walk through, and you practice it. But that's, uh,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: that's not an easy situation being you know, I've never
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: seen a guy line up for a sixty eight yard
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: and I'm We're looking out there and I looked at
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Nick because I know we had a good leg and
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: they said in sixty three yards. He was just smashing
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: him in pregame, so they thought they were worried. And
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: you know, obviously you saw a team win by a
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: sixty six yard field. Well I believe with that. Isn't
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: that crazy when you think sixty eight yards on the
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: other side of theft, that's incredible. I mean, sixty six
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: long enough and then all of a sudden sixty eight.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: They even gave it a shot, but it worked out
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: in the Jaguars favor. Let's come back in a moment
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: plenty ahead. Some transactions this week for the Jaguars and
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Jaguars game they broadcast are presented by Vistar Credit Union.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: This is the Gurban Meyers Show on the Jaguars Radio Network. Wow,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Welcome Back. The Urban Meyers Show continues along the Jaguars
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Radio Network Welcome back j P. Shadrick, Jeff Logman, and
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer ahead of Thursday Night football
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: the Jags and the Cincinnati Bengals coming up and two
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: official kickoff time at Paul Brown Stadium Thursday evening. Coach
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: a big trade this week c J Henders and headed
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: to the Panthers. The tight Endian Arnold coming to the Jaguars.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: A trade of draft picks in there as well. Why
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: now for the trade of Henderson and what do you
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: get in the new tight end? Well, Dan Arnold is
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: a guy that we I did in the free agency.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: You know, we're looking for that athletic tight end and
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: mismatch tight end. And you know, personally and I know
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: Bev Darryl Bebo feels the same as you know the
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: the you know, guy with length that can run. That's
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: what you're looking for. And we found this guy that
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: has a very unique background. He was a hurdler in college,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: which you know, those are those are really good athletes
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: in my experience with recruiting and coaching hurdlers just because
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: the hip explosion of power UM and it competed at
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: that event. And then you see his ball skills. You know,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: he's a guy who went to real small school in Wisconsin.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: And then UM really had a great year for the
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Phoenix Cardinals and then uh, which I talked to their
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: coach about him and and uh, we just wanted at
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: that matchup we're looking been looking for for quite a while.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: And then uh we had an offer to get c
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: j Uh the Carolina Uh hit us up about c
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: J because they had an injury a corner and we
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: were very pleased with Tyson Campbell his progression. You got
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Shack Griffin at the other one, and you get Trey
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Herndon back this week, so we felt like, you know,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: it's a chance to get a weapon for Trevor Lawrence.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: And certainly going into that game against Arizona Cardinals Urban
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: with the amount of wide receivers that they had that
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: we're gonna play in that ball game, and they had
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: four legitimate guys that could play, and you kind of
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: go into that game light with Trey Herndon out. C
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: J ended up being out as well. I thought that
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: you may elevate one of your two guys from the
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: practice squad. You guys chose not to in your defensive
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: secondary and your defense I thought as a whole plate
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: exceptionally well against a very challenging Cardinals offense. Yeah, Kyler Murray,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: we really did a nice job. You know. The whole
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: thing was to keep him in the pocket and keep
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: him contained and I want to say only average to
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: three yards per carry. Uh, you know, you don't give
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: any sacks on a guy like that, But are defense
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: hunging and coverage. They stayed in coverage. You know, we
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: had the one where you just basically punted the ball
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: down the field and once again a guy went out
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: may to play, but our defense hung in there. You know,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: it's nineteen to ten, like, you know, not got it,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: you know, nineteen to ten. But in the end of
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: the third and one guy that I thought played really
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: well in the ball game. If you take out the
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: necessary Roughlin's penalty, Damie Wilson. But he obviously had that penalty.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: But you go to the first defensive takeaway of the
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: season and Wingered makes an excellent play and kind of
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: the unsung hero on that was Damien Wilson, who does
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: a phenomenal job of carrying the vertical route that tries
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: to split the two safeties down in the middle that
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: makes Kyler Murray throw that ball up and over the top.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: I thought it was an exceptional play. Yeah, he played
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: his best game. He was a very physical, he was
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: a downhill linebacker, and uh played his best game. Was
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: head coach Urban Meyer with us on The Urban Meyer Show.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: We touched on this a little bit earlier, but let's
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: expand on it now. The challenge of the short week.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: You said you had an some experience with that. I
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: guess that would be out in the Mountain West back
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: at your time at Utah, going from Saturday to Thursday,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: now Sunday to Thursday. You know, you had a light
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: walk through on Monday evening. Um, rejuvenation has to be
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: the most important part of this and and and a
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: real test to the player you know, health program that
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: you've put in here. Yeah, I'd like to think we
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: have as good, if not the best, one of the
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: best sports performance models. And the NFL our players appreciate
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: they've been staying healthy, They're taking care of themselves. They
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: trust the people we call them the liaisons that work
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: directly with each position group. The unique thinking about the
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: NFL as you've got a twenty one year old and
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: you've got a thirty one year old, and it can't
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: be more different. And it's also the NFL. I mean,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: those are sledgehammers going against each other. So you've gotta
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: be really, really smart about and I'm leaning really heavily
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: on our veterans. I'm gonna have leadership meeting today with
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: our guys that talked about the rest of the week,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: and then uh, I just trust our players, and I
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: trust guys like Bevil Joe to uh, you know, make
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: sure we're doing the right thing by by way a player. Now,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: you talk about twenty one and maybe a thirty one
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: year old. In some cases some football teams have a
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: forty four year old, but that's nonetheless urban. Do your
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: coaches ever utilize any of the sports performance rejuvenation things
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: at all, because I mean coaching, Look, it can be
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: a major mental strain. Is there anything there for them? Oh? Sure,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: there's different things. I can't speak on. I don't really
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: monitor the coaches. I wantitor this the players, and but
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: I understand they do and they should. You know, like
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: you said, this is uh, you're you're getting in here
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: at before six and you're leaving a tenant ten thirty
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: at night, and it's you're it's it's plus two the
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: entire time. Coach, about the meeting adjustment the schedule, you
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: said you're gonna meet with some of the leaders on
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: the team. What do those meetings in tail and what
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: have you heard feedback so far for a week like this? Well,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: we're only one day in today's second day, and it's uh,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: you know, just jog through practice and then extended meeting time,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: and you have to install the game plan. Um, you know,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: with a young guy like Trevor, do we let him
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: get out there and throw I have some uh you know,
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: people that haven't played a lot. They actually threw the ball,
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: you know. I like to keep developing some of the
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: young players too. Uh So, guys that haven't played, They're
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: actually gonna do some practice work today, some individual but
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: it's could be just simply a jog through practice today
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: and then we're gonna try to keat him up a
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: little bit tomorrow, a little sweat. And that's going the
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: day before the game. And we're not playing tomorrow to
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: Cincinnati Urban. One of the issues that popped up in
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: the game, you end up having a couple of miss kicks,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: and you had some miskicks prior to that. You bring
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: a guy in on the practice squad this week, how
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: do you how do you handle that situation as a
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: whole with Josh Lambeau and then bringing in somebody on
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: the practice squad and what do you expect moving forward? Well,
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: it's a performance based business. You all know that. But
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: the respect I have for this guy, Josh, I mean,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: he was one of the elite kickers in the league.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: And I'm not convinced he won't come back and continue
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: to do that. I mean he all I can see
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: is what I see, and that's a grinder, an absolute
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: work ethic guy that, um I'm pulled from hard obviously
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: for us, but for him as well. And uh, but
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: it's you know you're gonna you know, just we haven't
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: made any decisions yet, but we will shortly. Coaches come
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: back in a moment. We'll look ahead to the Cincinnati Bengals.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: And it's a city where you have some experience as well.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: This is the Urban Meyer Show on Jaguars rainwaw WO.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Urban Meyer Show continues along the Jaguars
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Radio Network. Welcome back to Urban Meyers Show, rolling along J. P.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Shadrick with Jeff Lagman and head coach Urban Meyer ahead
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: of Thursday Night football the Jaguars and the Cincinnati Bengals.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: It's a city you know, well, Urban of course, he's
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: spent your college years in Cincinnati. I'm not that long ago, right,
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: I mean just a few years back. Um, thank you
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: to your best Cincinnati memory maybe back in those days.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Even well, it's fairly easy for me it was the
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: big Red Machine. You know. I grew up a Cincinnati
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: Reds fan, a baseball fan, ironically a Bengals fan too,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: was uh. The first five years of my life we
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: lived in Cincinnati, right outside Cincinnati, and a lot of
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: time we consider that home. I consider Cleveland and Cincinnati homes.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: So you know, I finally got to meet Pete Rose
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: and Perez and Conception and all those guys, and UH
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: just was a huge, big Reds fan and urban one
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: of the great memories that I had of Cincinnati. I
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: was fortunate enough to be able to be coached by
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Bruce Cosler, who was a former Bengal himself, and Chip
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Myers was a longtime coach for the Cincinnati Bengals. I
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: got my first started defensive vent from Anthony Munios and
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: Kenny Anderson was a coach on staffs that I have
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: played on. So I mean a lot of great memories.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: And the Bengals had some pretty good football teams back
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: in your era. You know. That was my first job
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: offer in the NFL was I was at Notre Dame
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: and I got a phone call one night from Bruce
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: Coslet and uh, I said, we'd like to bring you
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: in and hire he as a receiver coach and was
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: significantly more money. Uh And I remember going home to Shelly.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I said, hey, what do you think about this? She says,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: you know, she looked at me and says, you're out
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: of your damn mind. We're not moving, We're right, We're
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: comfortable where we're at and all that. So she she's
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: winning many of those battles over years, and she won
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: that one. Good stuff. All right, let's look ahead to
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: this football game. The Cincinnati Bengals are two and one,
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: coming off a big win over the Steelers. They kind
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: of pulled away in that game in the third quarter.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: It's an offense and players that you know, Well, let's
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: start at quarterback. I mean, you recruited Joe Burrow to
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: go to Ohio State. What kind of mindset does he have?
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: He really kind of had to work his way and
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: be patient. Ohio State finally got his opportunity down in
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Baton Rouge. Well, there's three grades you give athletes as
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: uh in in the NFL draft and recruiting, and it's
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: something I learned over my career. Coach Belichick and I
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: have talked about that many many times. The ones of
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: physical attributes, and that's the speed, size, strength, et cetera.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: The next one's mindset and that's all about competitive spirit, toughness, intelligence, leadership, adaptability.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: And then you got your character and that's what kind
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: of person you are. And Joe Burrow is a perfect
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: five on everything. I mean, his character is impeccable, his
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: mindset is absolutely impeccable, and his skill set has developed.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: You know, he was not that way when he came
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: out of high school. He was good. He was a
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: good player, under recruited and came in and just a toughness.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: His family's incredible, as his father was a longtime coach,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: his mom's great, a very close family, and just an
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: absolute UH competitive maniac. He broke his hand his third
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: year and lost the starting spot to UH Dwayne Haskins
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: and Duyne want to be a first rounder as well,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: and Joe went on to be UH a legendary college
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: player at l s U. One of the things that
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: that I have found kind of over with history and
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: urban You've experienced a lot of different players, but my
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: experience has shown that players that don't have a lot
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: of early success in life were professionally or even collegiately
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: sometimes have a better tendency to have better work habits
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: and end up reaching I think even a greater level
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: of greatness in the in the future. Is that something
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: that you've encountered. Oh, there's no doubt. That's something that
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: I've watched closely in my entire career. I love the underdog.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: I love the guy that's a street fighter that uh
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: refused to lose. And that's an absolute definition of um.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, you know he's a I watched him play
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: now and he you know, he has that terrible injury
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: last year, and he's still they're running him. He's uh scrambling,
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: he's making plays, so uh uh he's he's exactly what
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: you said. And I don't know if if he's gonna
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: be if this is any better than last week, but
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: they're wide the wide receiver group that you're facing this week.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: I don't want to say it's better than last week,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: but this is a very talented group that the Mangles have. Yeah, Chase,
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Chase has really come on and just a leaked fast
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: got behind uh. I think he's got four touchdowns already.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: You got BOYD who's a very dangerous guy, just very
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: that's kind of a go to guy, and then he
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: got te Higgins you missed last week, and so we're
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: gonna find out he's got his shoulder. I'm gonna understand.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: But those three are really really talented, and Joe Mixon
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: is really talented back. And I was gonna say Mixing
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: a second in the league and Russia attempts and yardage
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: through three weeks, but the Jaguars defense has stood up
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: pretty well against the run. I think that will be
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: a pretty good match of what is it about Mixons
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: running ability that you're most concerned about. Yeah, he'sh not
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: a one man tackle. He's gonna you gotta get to
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: four sets of hands on him be getting down. He's fast,
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: he's elusive, He's got a great jump cut and gets
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: vertical quickly on the zone and stretches their number one
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: run and he runs up very well. What do you
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: see as being the strongest point or point that the
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals defense has. I think every week you always
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: have a different challenge. What's the greatest challenge that the
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Bengals present? Well, it's interesting. This is my first year obviously,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: and I just learned and listen to our coaches and
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: our GM. How they built that defense. You know, they
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: built it from the defensive line out and they've done
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: very well. You know. They inside guys are big three
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: or thirty pounds, and then uh uh Sam Hubbard and
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: the number ninety one, the other guy they got from
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry forget his name from New Orleans. Very good
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: pass rushers on the edge. They just you know, they're
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: building a team and that's uh what we're trying to
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: do as well. But they got a very good defensive front.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: That's where it starts. That's Trey Hendrickson is the one
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: you're referring to. All Right, Urban, We're gonna have some
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: time at least I'm gonna have some time in Cincinnati.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: You've got a good restaurant recommendation, Oh you kid, the boathouse,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: the boathouse or the best the precinct? Which one? Oh,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: that's the one's high ends knowing you, Jeff, I don't
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: know you that well. And then if you want the
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: best burger in Cincinnati, it's uh zips zips be ever
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: had so zips? The boat House or the precinct. This
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: is gonna be controversial. What's your opinion on Skyline Chili?
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: When I was twenty three years old, I would uh
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: wait in line forever to get it when you're eight. Now,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: I'll be careful times change. Urban good luck to you.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: We appreciate your time. We'll talk to you. Thank you.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: Head coach Urban Meyer with us back with more after this.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: It's the Urban Meyer Show on the Jaguars Radio Network.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Urban Meyer Show continues along the Jaguars
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Radio Network. Welcome back to the Urban Meyers Show. J P. Shadrick,
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: Jeff Logaman, Head coach Gerban Meyer out of here. He
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: joins us in the first half hour each Tuesday afternoon,
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: and this week it's a short week. Jaguars faced the
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday Night football, and we're previewing that
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: game and what urbans trying to get things going. Obviously
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: with the team, that's the most important thing right now.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: They've lost some games. They're trying to figure it out
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: as a generally a young football team. But hey, give
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: me some recommendations in Cincinnati at the the most important
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: thing is don't give Urban chili right now. No, that's
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: that's that we've I knew it would be controversial, That's
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: why I asked the question he hasn't had my wife's
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: Venison chili yet, right, So there you have it. It's
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: a big game Thursday Night, number one overall picks the
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: last two years going against each other and the Jags
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: just trying to find that find themselves I think still
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: earlier in the season. Well, and that's gonna it's you know,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: the the reality is is that Thursday night games are
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: incredibly difficult for the road team, and and I believe
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: that this football team, the Jaguars, are gonna have to
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: find a way to get some takeaways and be plus
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: two to be able to win this ballgame because the
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Bengals are playing pretty well and feeling pretty good about themselves. So, uh,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: is it possible? Absolutely? Is it likely? Well, we gotta
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: wait and see, because you know what, I've seen games
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: before to where you had absolutely zero expectation for one
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: particular team to do well and then all of a
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: sudden you see a flurry of takeaways and it changes
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: the outcome of the game. So I hope that it
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: becomes a tough night for Joe Burrow. I hope good
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: after him. How do you get more pass rush? That's
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: not easy? And I've said this all year long about
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: this Jaguars defense. And and I'm not going to change
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: this defense. If they want to be able to affect
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: the passer, get him off the spot, disrupt his rhythm,
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it, they have to be
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: outstanding against the run game outstanding, not good outstanding because
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: there would you consider them good? Right now? They're good,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: but they're not outstanding the middle of the pack. Yeah,
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: I mean right now against the runners. Let's see where
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: they are, said team Okay, And yes I do get
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: that they are and yards per carry a little better
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: than that in the rankings. But you've got to be
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: able to be outstanding. And when I say outstanding, because
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: you want to try to get to the down and
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: distance that is optimum for affecting the passer, which is
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: second and long and third and long because it opens
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: up the the call sheet for Joe Cullen and it
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: allows him to have creativity if he chooses to, and
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: obviously it makes it more difficult for quarterback. So that's
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: where you want to be if with if you're this defense,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: and when they have the opportunity at making plays, which
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: they've had opportunities in the first two games that they
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: did not take advantage of You've got to take advantage
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: of them. You know, shout Griffin two interceptions he had
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: his hands on, wasn't able to make the play on
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: either one of them. Okay, make one of those plays,
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: you know, somebody else. How about it cost fumble? How
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: many costs fumbles or how many fumbles have we seen
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: this year that they've caused? Have they cast one yet?
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: I don't think so. I'm not talking about recovered from
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: it because we know that they have not. They have
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: not had a forced recovered fumble yet on the season
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: that we know. But do you recall I mean you
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: see sometimes where guys like at the end of the
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: pile and the plays almost over and the guys are
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: ripping at the ball, right, they have literally not had
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: a forced fumble on defense. I special teams. That's got
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: to change. And you know, special teams is doing a
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: pretty good job with the exception of the field goal kicker,
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: which I think that's gonna be an interesting watch because
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: you know, listening to Urban Talked just a minute ago
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: and then we just I think just saw press release
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: in the commercial break. The report just came out today. Well,
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: what's the story? Um, so the injury report came out.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Josh Lambo has been added to the report. Not injury
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: related personal is what's listed under injury Air quotes today,
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: did not practice. I said to see U J P.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: What was it before we came on the air? Yes,
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: I said, if if, I'm if, I'm trying to figure
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: out what to do with a kicker in this situation
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: with Josh Lambeau having missed all three of his field
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: goal tries, and he's like five or seven on his
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: P E t s and obviously the last two P
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: eight s are crushing, and you've signed a kicker to
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: the practice squad, I'd give him a week off. I would.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: I would tell Josh, look, we're gonna give you the
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: week off. Okay, we signed a guy. We're gonna go
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: with him this week because it's a short week. I mean, look,
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: you can get a kicker ready in a short week.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: That's not hard. Okay, they've got him on the practice squad.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Now you've got one of the best holders that there
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: is in the National Football League and your punter Logan Cook.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: And I would literally tell Josh, look, we're we're gonna
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: go with the other guy this week and then next week,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: We're gonna see you. Give you some time to mentally,
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: to take a break, whatever you need, but come back
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: next week. We'll see you on Monday, and let's go
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: come back to be ready to compete. Because that's the
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: great thing I think about this covid era roster situation.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: It gives you the ability to carry a kicker on
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: the practice squad and you can use two opportunities to
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: elevate him off of the practice squad and to see
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: where he's at and by the way, he's been perfect
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: in his very light career. And then see if Josh
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Lambeau can get us straight. If he can't get us straight,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's a bottom line business, as Urban said,
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: That's why it is plenty ahead. We'll come back with
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars offense trying to maintaining some consistency. They ran
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: the ball a bit better last week. Can they do
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: it again against this Bengals defense. We'll find out when
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: we come back. And this is the Urban Meyer Show.

  Speaker 1: people catch the fish. I mean, give me a golf
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: cart and give me my fishing tackle. Man, let's gus
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: gotta be some big bass in there. There is golf course.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: Is I used to uh, honest to goodness here at
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: the University of Virginia. Just a quick story and it's
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: the time has passed enough to where I can't get
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: in trouble with the law anymore. But when I was
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: at uv A, we had this beautiful university golf course
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: and it was called Birdwood Golfing country Club, and it
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: was a university golf courps. University owned it right. The
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: golf team played there, had tournaments, they had memberships too,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: and all the whole and they wouldn't open it up
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: for fishing, like in the in the town I grew
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: up and they would open it up for fishing. And
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: on the golf course, the local golf course. So me
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: and some other football players and I won't name their names,
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: but we used to sneak onto the golf course that
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: night do a little summertime night fishing. It was awesome,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: big bass damage in the big bass. That yeah, I
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: got a little exercise and you know, running from the
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: security at night. Speaking of getting some damage done, the
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: good summertime conditioning and the uh, the Jaguars offense would
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: like to continue doing some damage on the ground. They
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: had a little momentum last week in that department, it
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: felt like with James Robinson getting the ball a good
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: bit at eighty eight yards, got in the end zone
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: at one point, and Carlo's hide even when he touched
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: the ball had a very nice yards per average carry average,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: which she's had throughout the year so far. I mean
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: they then Trevor Lawrence running the ball six times to
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: mix it up in the read option type game. I
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: know you're not a fan of that all the time,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: but you know, it is a wrinkle that I feel like,
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe it gives Trevor a little more comfortability
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: back there is something he's always done in college. I
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: don't think, yeah, I think it is what you know
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: what I meant either way, so it gives him a
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: little more comfort back there. Let's say maybe, I mean,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: if he's doing things he's done for three years when
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: you work with words, here's what I'll say. Jay Robb
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: is the best player of offense right now. I mean
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: the best all around player, and I'm not I don't
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: expect him at the at the end of the year
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: to be the best player. I would hope that there
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: will be some other explosive elements to this offense that
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: start to reveal itself with experience, and that's gonna take time.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: You know, hopefully the relationship between DJ Chart and Trevor
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Lawrence continues to grow. But right now, you've got to
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: make sure that you've got balanced in it. You've got
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: j Rob involved in the bulk of this game plan
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: because he is consistent. He doesn't put you in bad situations.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: He doesn't take runs for no gain or minus yarded situations.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: He's good out of the backfield, and uh, that's what
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: you love about him. And he just goes to work
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: and he's gonna help Trevor Lawrence out as much as
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: they allow him to. And so keep letting him help
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: this offense because this past week was better. And here's
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: the other thing. The running game got better, offensive line
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: got better. I think Trevor Lawrence got better in a
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: couple of situations. I'll give you. Yeah, give an example.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: Do you remember when Brandon Lenner was was charged with
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: a false start because he kind of doubled the snap. Okay,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: so now sudden you back up the offense to like
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: a second and fifteen. And the previous week we saw
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence have a penalty and then it led to
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: an interception because he was trying to do too much
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: on the very next place. Get it all back in
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: one place, and what does he do on the on
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: the very next place? Okay, he got better. He actually
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: he had an option that was going down the field,
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: but it would have been really not a great window
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: or a great decision. So he throws it underneath to
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: a guy that's open, and I want to say he
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: gained ten eleven yards, ended up being like a third
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: and four, maybe a third and five, And it gave
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: you a manageable third down. And I remember watching the
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: film and I went and I had a flashback through
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: the previous week when he made that bad decision to
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: try to force it, and I said, he got better. Okay,
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: so we got better in that situation. Now he still
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: got it. Had a moment that like in this past game,
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: he's rolling to his left and he still kind of
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: throws it back to the middle of the field there
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: and it wasn't it didn't get intercepted or wasn't close
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: to interception. But was one of those things that he,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: you know, learned that lesson in one week. Okay, don't
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: take it, you know, in a week three, because he
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: had that happen in week one, or he threw it
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: back and it didn't work, And here he was in
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: week three kind of doing a little bit of that again.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: In fact, I don't know if you saw the Monday
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: night broadcast last night with the Mannings. I did. I
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: watched most of that, which I actually watched it last night.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: I said, you know, let me try it again, and
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: I actually like it better. Now I liked it better
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: last night. They got like the next four weeks off
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: for some reason. That's fine that they got better. But
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: Peyton actually and Eli talked about a quarterback running to
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: their left and throwing back to the middle of the field,
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: and that's what Trevor did week one. It resulted interception,
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: and he still tried to do it in this pass game.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: So there are things that he will learn from and
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: that he'll get after one occasion. But then there are
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: other things that you think you can maybe still do it,
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: and then you've got to get that lesson one more
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: time to maybe have it reinforced. And that was probably
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: one of those moments for Trevor and and he'll have that.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: You know, sometimes it'll take a couple of negative things
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: to happen to learn. In some cases, it might just
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: take one instance of something negative happening for him to
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: learn to never do it again. Let's come back plenty
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: more ahead in the final fifteen minutes or so of
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: The Urban Meyer Show and The Jaguars Radio Network, Wow,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: Welcome Back. The Urban Meyer Show continues along the Jaguars
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: Radio Network. Welcome back to Urban Meyers Show, rolling along
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: JP Shadrick with Jeff lock Iman. Glad you've joined us today,
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: Head coach Urban Meyer. In the first half hour every Tuesday,
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: five o'clock here on the network and this week it's
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: Thursday Night Football. Alright, logs so jamal agnews cleats are
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: now in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. And Canton
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: Ohio from his one nine yard kick six field goal
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: missed return for a touchdown in Sunday's game and he's
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: the first player in league history to have back to
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: back one hundred yard plus kick returns in u in
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: back to back games. So a hundred yard plus and
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: back to back pretty strong? Can you count on three? About?
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: Make at three? How about four? Can do you hear five? Well?
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, you take them all all that you
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: could get. You know, when when they decided the Cardinals
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: and Cliff Kingsbury decided to try sixty yard or okay, fine,
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: I mean that's two seconds left, end of the half
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: and you got a kicker who has the NFL record
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: for longest field goal? Why not? Okay? And uh but
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: you gotta remember and I actually have doing this on
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: the in the football lab. Oh you're going to the lab.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: We're gonna lab with that play, going to lab. Okay.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: I like this because and I called it a ton
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: of fun, it's actually a ton and a half of fun.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: You don't get what I'm talking about. Please tell us more. Okay,
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: when you line up a field goal protection unit, you
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: have six offensive or defensive linemen, okay, because they're the guards,
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: the tackling, and the tight ends, and they're all three
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: plus pounds. The long snapper he's about two fifty. The
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: wings are tight ends for the Cardinals, they're two fifty is.
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: And then you've got two specialists. You know. It's look,
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, they're they're not exactly man eaters. I don't
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: care what they weigh, but if you add the weight
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: up of all of those folks on that field goal
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: protection unit, it actually almost equals three thousand pounds, which
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: is a ton and a half. So that's why I
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: say it's a ton and a half of fun, because
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: because you've got a bunch of fat guys covering that,
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: guys who don't and look. V Cli was like, hey, hey,
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: I'm like, look man, it's not everybody made like you.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: And you can like blow up artrall Hawkins, you know,
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: on an inception. That doesn't happen. Though, Okay, most of
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: those guys are not very athletic and they don't run
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: very well, which is exactly what happened on that kick.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: And there were three legitimate guys that had an opportunity
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: at making the play. When we look in the football lab,
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: you'll see that the two tight ends gave me the
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: best shot. The long snapper was down the field and
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: on it. I mean he was on it. But he's
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: one guy in the middle of a fifty three yard
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: wide field. And so all jamal ag knew how to
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: do was raced to the left and then he avoids
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: him and now all of a a sudden, his speed eliminates
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: the six fat guys. Okay, and then once he gets
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: up the field, there's one guy that's right in front
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: of him. That's ma Max Williams. The tight end. Well,
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars, doesn't they do a good job the defense does?
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: They double teamed him. The other tight income coming from
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: the opposite direction, made a value effort, value effort coming
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: in diving at the legs of jamal Agnew. But jamal
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: Agnew stays alive. And then the kicker and the holder, Yeah,
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: good luck, come on, good luck, give me a little effort.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, have you know the Wizard of
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: Oz find a heart? Right, you need a heart the
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: lion needed a heart and a kicker, and the holder
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: on exactly a courageous effort. But at the very end
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: there running down the field real fast, like yeah, we're
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: gonna get him. And it was one of those so
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: wait a minute, you just had your opportunity and having
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: a little courage okay, and making him play coming up
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: and it was terrible, terrible anyway, Ton and a half
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: of fun and just hearing Jamal Agnew talk about a
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: little bit. If you're a return to that situation, you
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: start out going straight. Everybody's coming at you. Then you
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: go outside because they can't get to the boundary quick.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: That's as soon as he went straight, because he went straight,
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: and then there's there right in front of him is
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: the long snapper. And then once he breaks it, the
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: long snappers left in the dust, and then all the
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: fat guys are left behind, you know. And unfortunately you
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: had an offensive line and I think it was Justin
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: Pew that ended up hurting himself on that play for
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals. And I hope he's okay, because I mean,
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: as an offensive line, you don't get paid to cover
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: on a field goal return, and he got hurt on it.
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: So there's been a few in NFL history, I think
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: a four or five others, And this was tie for
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: the longest kick return of any kind in the history
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: one kick six win one O nine and Cordarrel Patterson
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: had a kickoff return go one O nine. Also, the
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: question that I would have, how does this go down
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: statistically for the individual? Jamal agnew Yeah, I don't see
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: it in kick returns. I don't It's not in a
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: punt So do you get like like all puckers yards
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: or return yards? Do you get that to write I'm
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: gonna be an all purposed to you know, like Cordrell Patterson. Okay,
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: let's say he had Jamal, does he get this hunterred
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: nine yards added to his career numbers? Say, well, we
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: need to do is go to Pro Football Reference dot Com.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: We'll do that and we'll do that during a break
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: and then we'll can we can or you can do
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: that now and then we can find out how they
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: would classify this. Let's come back. We got a few
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: minutes left. We'll try to figure this out before Okay,
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: because it's important and the Jags have had it a
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks in a row. Jamal Agnew taken one
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: to the house. P r I Productions, the Southeast full

• 42:15
  Speaker 1: Jaguars Radio wo Welcome back. The Urban Meyer Show continues
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: along the Jaguars Radio Network. Final moments of the Urban
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: Meyers Show in this Tuesday afternoon j P. Shadrick with
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: Jeff Logavan, head coach Urban Urban Meyers joining us in
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: the first half hour each and every Tuesday. And the
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: Jaguars get the Cincinnati Bengals. The We've done a little
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: our crack research staff here trying to figure out the
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: Jamal Agnew could und from about the kickoff or the
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: missfield goal return for a touchdown the kick six don't
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: see it in the official return artage listings right now.
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: I don't see it anyway because it's not a kickoff
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: and it's not a punt. We need to upgrade our
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: research stand need to extend our expand our crack research staff.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: So it's got to be. And we offered a little
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: more money, maybe we get a better performance. It's still
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: hundred nine yards in the scoring books. So at some
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: point you think it has to be like an all
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: purpose yardage somewhere. You would think the only thing that
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: I found on on the one category that actually put
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: the touchdown and other touchdown right, it counts as a
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: return touchdown, but it's not like yardage on a kickoff return.
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but I mean, is it quote unquote
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: return yardage? Is I'm conspidered? I mean, I don't know.
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: That's a it's a great question, and maybe that's a
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: great question for the folks at h at the NFL
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: Stats NFL Stats. Maybe we can send an email out
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: and I'd be probably well, put Dave to Candas on it.
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: He's he's he's leaves up our crack research staff on
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: a weekly basis, so maybe he likes stats. Maybe maybe
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: double Dave Dave to Canada because Jamal Agnew has a
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: hundred and thirty eight kick return yards this year, right,
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: that's one oh two plus all the other kickoff returns combined,
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: So that's not counting the one oh nine. So who knows.
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: We're we're digging deep. We got another week to figure out.
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: Maybe you'll have another one and you know, we'll have
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: this question again next week. How many how many field
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: will returns for touchdowns has there been in league history?
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: The article I saw the other day it went back
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: to a certain year and there were five in that.
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: This would be number six, but there were five hundred nine,
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: or there were two. This is the second one nine,
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: So there you go. Thursday Night Jaguars Bengals, Paul Brown Stadium, Cincinnati,
