- 0:11[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks so much for being here Saturday, October 18th.
- 0:15[SPEAKER_00]: We've got bold predictions for Jaguars and Rams.
- 0:18[SPEAKER_00]: We're just over 24 hours away, right, filming this about 7.15 a.m. on Saturday.
- 0:24[SPEAKER_00]: Jaguars, Rams kicks off 9.30 a.m. Eastern time Sunday morning.
- 0:29[SPEAKER_00]: I always really enjoy the London game from a viewing perspective like being the only game on getting to start the day with football at 9.30 a.m.
- 0:39[SPEAKER_00]: I think is a lot of fun.
- 0:41[SPEAKER_00]: I know from a player safety perspective and
- 0:45[SPEAKER_00]: you know, losing a home game and these different things, it's not a perfect scenario for the Jaguars or for local Jaguars fans, but I do personally enjoy getting up and watching 930 AM football no matter who's on, but especially when it's the Jaguars and then you can kind of set your table for the rest of the day.
- 1:05[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm excited for it.
- 1:07[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully y'all are to going to get into these
- 1:13[SPEAKER_00]: really appreciate y'all being here if you enjoy the content please like and subscribe you can also check out jenjag.com pick up a hat like the one I'm wearing right now and do not forget every order comes with one of these little guys we'll haul a graphic jack sticker for you so bold predictions we're going to start with the jack wars offense I'm calling for the offensive line to have a much better day and I'm aware that this is not an easy task but
- 1:43[SPEAKER_00]: Um, you know, what happened against the seahawks is that that type of performance from the offensive line.
- 1:50[SPEAKER_00]: It's the type of performance that really kind of makes you a question.
- 1:53[SPEAKER_00]: Was this a blip or was this a sign of things to come and I, I believe it was a blip.
- 2:01[SPEAKER_00]: I think that the Jaguar is just we're not ready physically for that game mentally, emotionally maybe.
- 2:07[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know why was it coming off a big win against the Chiefs on Monday and I football.
- 2:11[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
- 2:13[SPEAKER_00]: But based on what I have seen through six games,
- 2:19[SPEAKER_00]: That leads me to believe that the Jack Wars have an offensive line that can get the job done.
- 2:25[SPEAKER_00]: You also have Robert Hainesy coming back, which I know, Jonah Monheim actually played pretty well for a rookie in the situation he was thrust into last week.
- 2:34[SPEAKER_00]: But Robert Hainesy, offensive captain, leader of front, really good player too right now.
- 2:40[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he's been excellent in past pro and in the run game for the Jack Wars, and so
- 2:45[SPEAKER_00]: not only his presence, but just the fact that they had a wake-up call type of game last week, I think they're going to play much better football.
- 2:54[SPEAKER_00]: Are they going to be perfect against Jared vs. Byron Young, Kobe Turner, Braden Fisk, all he is, no, they're not going to be perfect, but
- 3:02[SPEAKER_00]: they're going to get the job done a lot more than they did.
- 3:04[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they were, that was one of the worst offensive line past pro performances and just in general that I've seen in a very long time and again, it's the type of thing that makes you question everything about that offensive line.
- 3:22[SPEAKER_00]: really evaluate this offensive line through the lens of the entire season so far.
- 3:27[SPEAKER_00]: I think they're going to bounce back.
- 3:28[SPEAKER_00]: They have played good defensive fronts before.
- 3:30[SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't like the seahawks was the first time they played a good defensive front.
- 3:34[SPEAKER_00]: It just happened to be a front that was big, physical, strong, athletic.
- 3:40[SPEAKER_00]: Jared Vers certainly fits that bill.
- 3:43[SPEAKER_00]: Everybody else up front for the Rams, they're not as physical, and they can still beat you, and they can still be physical, but they're not as physical, as a buyer and Murphy, a Leonard Williams players like that, right?
- 3:55[SPEAKER_00]: A democracy's Lawrence.
- 3:56[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, these are some of the most physical players at their positions in the league.
- 4:00[SPEAKER_00]: So, I think the offensive line bounce back, I do.
- 4:04[SPEAKER_00]: I think they give Trevor a lot more time.
- 4:07[SPEAKER_00]: It's a little bit cleaner, and not perfect.
- 4:09[SPEAKER_00]: There's gonna be some pressure at times.
- 4:10[SPEAKER_00]: Trevor's gonna have to navigate that a little bit, but I'm calling for Trevor Loans to have another 250 yard passing day with a rushing touchdown and a passing touchdown.
- 4:23[SPEAKER_00]: I think that he's going to be able to find Brian Thomas Jr. and Travis Hunter a little bit more down the field on the perimeter.
- 4:30[SPEAKER_00]: Also, I think Deami gets a 20 plus yard catch.
- 4:33[SPEAKER_00]: I think each of your three top three receivers.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_00]: Brian Thomas Jr. Travis Hunter, Deami Brown, have a 20 plus yard catch in this game.
- 4:41[SPEAKER_00]: I think that Travis Hunter and Brian Thomas Jr. combined for 160, they're trending in this direction.
- 4:48[SPEAKER_00]: You heard Liam Cohen talking about the Jack Wars really want to start featuring Travis Hunter more as a number one option on offense.
- 4:56[SPEAKER_00]: I think they're going to do that.
- 4:57[SPEAKER_00]: I have no reason to believe that he's lying about that.
- 5:02[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think he has any incentive to do so.
- 5:05[SPEAKER_00]: I think Travis Hunter and Brian Thomas Jr. have a big day.
- 5:09[SPEAKER_00]: The Jaguar is continuing to figure out how to use Bryan Thomas Jr. and Travis Hunter to the best of their ability.
- 5:15[SPEAKER_00]: BTJ struggling over the middle of the field.
- 5:18[SPEAKER_00]: I think the Jaguar's get him going on the perimeter a little bit more in this game.
- 5:23[SPEAKER_00]: And try to scheme ways for him to not have to go over the middle of the field right now.
- 5:30[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's what they do.
- 5:31[SPEAKER_00]: I think Liam Cohen.
- 5:33[SPEAKER_00]: has a good game plan going back to the offensive line for dealing with Jared vs.
- 5:37[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not exactly sure how he can do it, but saw a sterling example of how to deal with a Jared vs. like player in Josh Hines Allen from the Seahawks last week, right?
- 5:47[SPEAKER_00]: The Seahawks, what did they do?
- 5:48[SPEAKER_00]: They ran a lot of screens, they ran a lot of quick game when they wanted to go deep, they had pretty much, you know,
- 5:55[SPEAKER_00]: of max-protect type of situation.
- 5:58[SPEAKER_00]: They ran the ball away from Josh Hines Allen.
- 6:02[SPEAKER_00]: They did all these things to kind of just take him out of the game a little, but he still made some nice plays, but I think you do that early and that kind of slows Jaredverse down a little bit.
- 6:11[SPEAKER_00]: And again, it's not like that you don't have other guys to deal with, but Jaredverse is their top guy up front.
- 6:18[SPEAKER_00]: I think that he's the tone-setter.
- 6:20[SPEAKER_00]: Everybody else feeds off him and they got good players all over that front,
- 6:24[SPEAKER_00]: think avoiding Jaredverse probably not a bad idea.
- 6:28[SPEAKER_00]: Travis ETN in the run game they don't have a great day, but about four yards per carry for the backs and Lawrence combined I think that Lawrence has a little bit more room to work with running the ball today than he did last week scrambling a little bit.
- 6:42[SPEAKER_00]: I have Trevor Lawrence with the rushing touchdown and Travis ETN with the rushing touchdown.
- 6:46[SPEAKER_00]: So I have the jackwars find in the end zone at least a couple times.
- 6:54[SPEAKER_00]: I have them finding the end zone three times in this one on offense again.
- 6:58[SPEAKER_00]: Trevor Lawrence passing touchdown, is it to Travis Hunter?
- 7:01[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully, that'd be a lot of fun, right?
- 7:03[SPEAKER_00]: But I think he's going to find the end zone throwing the ball, running the ball, and I think E.T.N.
- 7:07[SPEAKER_00]: is also going to have a rushing touchdown.
- 7:09[SPEAKER_00]: I'm also calling for a Cam Little bounce back game.
- 7:12[SPEAKER_00]: I think that
- 7:14[SPEAKER_00]: He has too much talent to not bounce back out of this.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_00]: I think he's going to here in London.
- 7:20[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's going to be a good change of scenery for him.
- 7:23[SPEAKER_00]: Now you're like, probably saying, this sounds like all Stone Shannon Rambo's.
- 7:27[SPEAKER_00]: I also have a Darious Williams Interception.
- 7:29[SPEAKER_00]: And I think Darious Williams is playing really good football right now that the Rams, they're going to play a lot of his own defense against the Jack Wars.
- 7:37[SPEAKER_00]: Darious Williams getting an interception against his hometown and former team, the Jacksonville Jack Wars.
- 7:45[SPEAKER_00]: Run defense, Jaguar is switchin' size of the ball.
- 7:48[SPEAKER_00]: I think the Jaguar's run defense has a big day.
- 7:50[SPEAKER_00]: They only allow about three yards per carry.
- 7:52[SPEAKER_00]: And this one, two, the ram's running backs and Matthew Stafford's not running all over the yard, obviously.
- 7:57[SPEAKER_00]: Pookin' a coup of being out, big deal.
- 7:59[SPEAKER_00]: Rob Havin' Stein being out, big deal.
- 8:02[SPEAKER_00]: I think the Jaguar's are focused on stopping the run.
- 8:07[SPEAKER_00]: And they do that, and that allows them to kind of force the ram's into some
- 8:12[SPEAKER_00]: adverse situations, but Matthew Stafford pretty good at getting out of adverse situations.
- 8:18[SPEAKER_00]: I think he has a decent day in this one overall and is able to get that offense going a little bit.
- 8:27[SPEAKER_00]: I have Devontae Adam scoring a touchdown.
- 8:29[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, how could I not?
- 8:31[SPEAKER_00]: It would be really, really bold prediction to predict the Monday out of not scoring a touchdown because I think he scored a touchdown every single time he's played the Jaguar as the last two times he's played the Jags.
- 8:40[SPEAKER_00]: He has scored at least two touchdowns.
- 8:43[SPEAKER_00]: I think he had 198 yards and two touchdowns last year.
- 8:45[SPEAKER_00]: I think a couple years ago he had 150 asch yards and two touchdowns.
- 8:50[SPEAKER_00]: He's a Jaguar killer and Matthew Stavard haven't had a great connection so far, but I think Pook and a Kuma missing some time.
- 8:58[SPEAKER_00]: might give them that opportunity to try to establish that connection a little more.
- 9:02[SPEAKER_00]: He does Devante Adams already has three touchdowns this year, even though he hasn't been targeted a ton.
- 9:08[SPEAKER_00]: And he hasn't been like perfect.
- 9:11[SPEAKER_00]: But I think Devante has a pretty good day against the Jaguar scores of touchdown.
- 9:15[SPEAKER_00]: I'm also calling for a Terrence Ferguson touchdown.
- 9:17[SPEAKER_00]: This is really more about the tight end position in general.
- 9:21[SPEAKER_00]: I think that the Jaguars just throughout their
- 9:27[SPEAKER_00]: I already have a Devonte Adam's touchdown.
- 9:29[SPEAKER_00]: I think Jordan Whittington, it's possible he can find the end zone, but I think it's more likely that the Rams find a tight end for a touchdown in this game.
- 9:39[SPEAKER_00]: And I do think that the kicking game is a big deal for the Rams and for the Jag wars because both kickers in this game have had some struggles, right?
- 9:51[SPEAKER_00]: You look at Josh Cardi.
- 9:53[SPEAKER_00]: He's 14 of 16 on extra points this year.
- 9:56[SPEAKER_00]: He's 10 of 14 on field goals.
- 9:59[SPEAKER_00]: I think my bold prediction is Josh Cardi.
- 10:06[SPEAKER_00]: Similar to what happened last week with the Jaguars against the Seahawks, Cardi misses some kicks and it puts the Rams in a position where they're leaving some points on the board.
- 10:16[SPEAKER_00]: And puts them in a bad position.
- 10:18[SPEAKER_00]: I think Camelittle bounces back.
- 10:19[SPEAKER_00]: That's just my gut feeling on this one here this week.
- 10:23[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm calling for a Terrence Ferguson touchdown at a Monti Adams touchdown.
- 10:27[SPEAKER_00]: I think the Jag war is win.
- 10:29[SPEAKER_00]: I think getting to London early was smart.
- 10:32[SPEAKER_00]: The Rams getting there late.
- 10:33[SPEAKER_00]: I think is going to be a mistake.
- 10:36[SPEAKER_00]: The Rams basically just got there late last night or early this morning.
- 10:42[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's going to be a mistake, you know, only being there for 24 hours.
- 10:46[SPEAKER_00]: And I know that there's, as Liam Cohen has pointed out, there's science on both sides, sports science on both sides.
- 10:52[SPEAKER_00]: But with the teams both having a by week, I think that, you know, after this game, I think that getting there early is going to end up being the smart move and getting acclimated and all that good stuff.
- 11:04[SPEAKER_00]: So I have the Jack Wars winning this game.
- 11:06[SPEAKER_00]: I have them winning it 24 to 17.
- 11:12[SPEAKER_00]: The Rams do get a field goal, but they also miss a couple of field goals, or at least one field goal, and so it ends up being a 24, 17 ball game again.
- 11:21[SPEAKER_00]: Three Jack Wars Offends of Touchdowns, and Touchdown for Devante, Touchdown for Terrence Ferguson, or one of the Rams tied ends.
- 11:29[SPEAKER_00]: I just think I did Terrence Ferguson because he is a
- 11:33[SPEAKER_00]: player that they haven't targeted a ton, but has that athletic ability, that physical ability, to really test the Jaguars in a big way and be a problem.
- 11:47[SPEAKER_00]: As a player who you're not getting a lot of scouted looks on him as compared to some of the other titans they have.
- 11:54[SPEAKER_00]: So I think that's why I'm going with him, but it could be any of those titans could be Jordan-winning tin as well, but I do have the Ramscore and a couple touchdowns, but
- 12:03[SPEAKER_00]: hampered by Joshua Cardi and his inability to connect on field goals consistently.
- 12:10[SPEAKER_00]: I think Cam Little Bounce is back, maybe that's wishful thinking, but that's how I'm viewing this one so far.
- 12:15[SPEAKER_00]: I also have the Jaguar's defense forcing a couple turnovers in this one.
- 12:20[SPEAKER_00]: I think that they get back to their turnover ways a little bit.
- 12:23[SPEAKER_00]: I think not having Pook and Akua is a bad deal for the Rams.
- 12:26[SPEAKER_00]: I think that traveling late is not the best move for the Rams as well.
- 12:33[SPEAKER_00]: We'll find out tomorrow morning, really appreciate y'all being here.
