- 0:45Speaker 1: I'm thankful for spending every single week with you.
- 0:50Speaker 3: Key.
- 0:50Speaker 1: You knew I was going to say that, didn't you,
- 0:52Speaker 1: Because even though I was going to say that, you
- 0:54Speaker 1: actually you were asking for it. When I said that,
- 0:56Speaker 1: as well knew you wanted me to say.
- 0:58Speaker 2: I felt a bit down.
- 0:59Speaker 4: What do you say?
- 1:00Speaker 5: I needed that pick up? Thanks Jay, Am I am
- 1:03Speaker 5: thankful for the bye week. I'm really thankful for the
- 1:06Speaker 5: bye week.
- 1:07Speaker 4: All right.
- 1:07Speaker 5: Yeah, that's it. Having a week whatever guaranteed not to lose.
- 1:12Speaker 5: Pretty good.
- 1:13Speaker 1: We will be talking all things Turkey Day with Anton. Also,
- 1:18Speaker 1: do you remember last week Key, we mentioned the fan
- 1:21Speaker 1: who had a Christmas Jaguars themed like man cave set
- 1:26Speaker 1: up NFL and the Jags ukn on and reposted his
- 1:29Speaker 1: social media video if you if you haven't seen already,
- 1:31Speaker 1: Zach who has that Christmas themed Jags man cave. He's
- 1:36Speaker 1: going to be on with us. He's going to give
- 1:38Speaker 1: us another big question this week as well. How did
- 1:41Speaker 1: you spend your bye week Sunday? Key? Did you you
- 1:44Speaker 1: know no Jags to watch?
- 1:45Speaker 5: Do you still friend zoned until relatively late with the
- 1:50Speaker 5: big dog next to me? No daughter this week, which
- 1:54Speaker 5: is a little bit sad. I was about to say
- 1:55Speaker 5: that it's not your daughter being the big dog, and
- 1:59Speaker 5: it was.
- 1:59Speaker 2: It was nice. It was different because I was relaxed.
- 2:06Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. There is something strange, isn't there.
- 2:08Speaker 1: We're just putting on red zone and just yeah, matching it. Yeah,
- 2:13Speaker 1: that makes sense. It's like, oh, the most I have
- 2:15Speaker 1: to worry about right now is my fantasy.
- 2:16Speaker 5: To exactly, and I can actually enjoy Scott Hansen.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Picking throughout the evening. It was wonderful.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Well, let's talk Texans game in a second. But there
- 2:28Speaker 1: were some like bye week news. I feel like we
- 2:30Speaker 1: need to mention Ross Mattersick got engaged. Congratulations Ross. I
- 2:36Speaker 1: wonder this is just a theory that I've just come
- 2:38Speaker 1: up with, literally on the spot. But I wonder if
- 2:41Speaker 1: you looked at like statistics of when when like NFL
- 2:45Speaker 1: players got engaged, is it is it always during their
- 2:49Speaker 1: bye week? That's so interesting, you know what I mean,
- 2:51Speaker 1: because because I suppose it just makes sense to do
- 2:53Speaker 1: it while you've got a bit more time, and you
- 2:54Speaker 1: can you do it when you're because they're probably you know,
- 2:56Speaker 1: taking a few days away or whatever proposed anyway.
- 2:59Speaker 2: Get married during the off season.
- 3:02Speaker 1: Yeah, the off season, That's what I'm saying. And that's
- 3:05Speaker 1: why sometimes they're like, I don't want an early bye week.
- 3:08Speaker 1: I'd like to do it a bit like, you know,
- 3:09Speaker 1: just for the engage.
- 3:10Speaker 5: Anyway, they've got catering, they've just got cornish pastdays.
- 3:15Speaker 1: That's what It's a nice callback to an episode about
- 3:20Speaker 1: six weeks ago that people may or may not understand anyway,
- 3:25Speaker 1: Doug says the team was away from football, was spending
- 3:27Speaker 1: the week with their families, which was you know, the
- 3:29Speaker 1: plan that was going in of course, in hopes of
- 3:31Speaker 1: finding a new mindset, because as we know, the team
- 3:34Speaker 1: are currently two and nine Texans at Jags. Key, let's
- 3:40Speaker 1: get into it before we hear from Anton Harrison coming
- 3:45Speaker 1: off the bye week. I mean, the big thing that
- 3:46Speaker 1: we need to mention first off, and what I think
- 3:48Speaker 1: a lot of Jags fans are going to be thinking
- 3:50Speaker 1: right now, is Trevor Lawrence playing. I think it's fair
- 3:53Speaker 1: to say as we're recording and Wednesday, it's trending up.
- 3:57Speaker 1: It's key. So it looks like that the Mac Jones
- 4:02Speaker 1: soires QB one is is potentially over for this season.
- 4:06Speaker 5: Of the word, there are other words that Yeah, it
- 4:12Speaker 5: looks it looks pretty good for Trevor. Being honest, the
- 4:17Speaker 5: way Mac played, it would be nice to have Trevor back,
- 4:21Speaker 5: or do you know what, if Trevor doesn't play, it
- 4:23Speaker 5: would be nice to see Mac do a better job
- 4:27Speaker 5: and feel good about himself because he's more talented than
- 4:30Speaker 5: we've seen on the field last couple of games, isn't.
- 4:32Speaker 1: He Yeah, well absolutely. I mean I think it's fair
- 4:36Speaker 1: to say that having Trevor Lawrence back will be a boost,
- 4:38Speaker 1: especially after the bye. So I think that's fair to say.
- 4:41Speaker 5: If he's still feeling injured though, because we did it
- 4:43Speaker 5: last night. I prefer a player to look after themselves.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Yeah that's fair enough. Yeah, Texans three losses in the
- 4:52Speaker 1: last four games, top of the division. The Jags are
- 4:56Speaker 1: mathematically still in it. I believe the Texans have to
- 4:59Speaker 1: these Jas need to win and Jags have to win. Yeah,
- 5:04Speaker 1: so's it's it's don't get me wrong, this is a
- 5:06Speaker 1: tough ask. But what did we speak about last week?
- 5:09Speaker 1: And we spoke about statements, We spoke about what it's
- 5:13Speaker 1: like for you know, what does it mean to a team?
- 5:16Speaker 1: What does it mean to a fan base? Potentially more
- 5:18Speaker 1: importantly as well, when you have potentially these big wins.
- 5:22Speaker 1: And yes, the Texans are in a not great run
- 5:25Speaker 1: of form right now, but they are the leaders in
- 5:27Speaker 1: the division and it still would mean quite a lot,
- 5:30Speaker 1: I think to a Jags fan base to get the
- 5:33Speaker 1: win at home against a.
- 5:35Speaker 5: Tex stattitude, that's exactly it. I think, first and foremost
- 5:38Speaker 5: beating the Texans is just good. As a Jags fan,
- 5:43Speaker 5: that would feel good. I don't think we should be
- 5:47Speaker 5: thinking about that being the start of a run or
- 5:50Speaker 5: anything like that. Let's just beat the Texans because it
- 5:54Speaker 5: feels good.
- 5:55Speaker 1: Man, I couldn't put it better myself, to be honest
- 5:57Speaker 1: with you.
- 5:58Speaker 4: C J.
- 5:58Speaker 1: Stroud as well. I think that he had such an
- 6:01Speaker 1: amazing last season, his rookie season in the NFL. It's
- 6:04Speaker 1: not been quite the same this season. But can traveon
- 6:08Speaker 1: can you know, Josh heines Allen, can the pass rush
- 6:10Speaker 1: get to going, can they bring him down? Can they
- 6:13Speaker 1: you know, make him feel uncomfortable? I think that that's
- 6:16Speaker 1: probably the big thing, along with obviously Trevor playing Trevor.
- 6:19Speaker 1: Trevor playing is the big, the big question when it
- 6:21Speaker 1: comes to this game. But can they make.
- 6:26Speaker 5: Ja They did it at the end of last season.
- 6:28Speaker 5: They absolutely can. There was this Jags team has beaten
- 6:33Speaker 5: that Texans team before. This Texans team aren't playing particularly
- 6:37Speaker 5: well at the moment. The Jags are coming back off
- 6:40Speaker 5: the bye feeling hopefully rested, feeling more positive. It's absolutely possible,
- 6:45Speaker 5: and what a way to start this next part of
- 6:48Speaker 5: the season. By By stepping up by showing everyone all
- 6:53Speaker 5: three phases working together and beating this Texans team.
- 6:56Speaker 2: That's what I'm looking for on Sunday.
- 6:59Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's it's interesting as well because I
- 7:02Speaker 1: was listening to to Happy Hour the other day and
- 7:04Speaker 1: Tony Biselli was talking about how it's really interesting because
- 7:08Speaker 1: I come at it from, you know, obviously not being
- 7:11Speaker 1: a player that I think, you know, having those there's
- 7:15Speaker 1: always a chance, there's always a chance having those late
- 7:18Speaker 1: wins could make a big difference in the off season
- 7:20Speaker 1: the morale. Tony Bisselli's like, nope, absolutely not. He does
- 7:25Speaker 1: not agree with that whatsoever. And I was like, fair enough,
- 7:28Speaker 1: I suppose you know, if anyone's going to know. And
- 7:31Speaker 1: his argument is, well, it's a completely different team, you know,
- 7:36Speaker 1: So he's saying that maybe my argument, I suppose is
- 7:39Speaker 1: completely wrong.
- 7:40Speaker 2: You know, we don't know, DOJ.
- 7:43Speaker 5: We haven't played in the NFL Tony has, but like,
- 7:46Speaker 5: and I get I totally get it, Like the team
- 7:48Speaker 5: will look different, but maybe it's not a team thing.
- 7:52Speaker 5: Maybe it's for certain individuals that individuals based Certainly, I
- 7:59Speaker 5: mean what Molly was saying last week, right what happened
- 8:03Speaker 5: at the end of last season made a lot of
- 8:06Speaker 5: Jags fans feel not as hopeful about the beginning of
- 8:08Speaker 5: this season, whereas at the end of twenty two that
- 8:11Speaker 5: went really well. Going into twenty three you felt good.
- 8:14Speaker 5: So it certainly applies to fans, But I mean, Tony's
- 8:17Speaker 5: gonna know much better than us whether that applies to
- 8:19Speaker 5: players or not.
- 8:20Speaker 1: Let's say from Anton Harrison in a second, I just
- 8:22Speaker 1: want to repeat what I said earlier though. The Jags again,
- 8:25Speaker 1: they're not mathematically eliminated from the playoff picture, so let's
- 8:30Speaker 1: enjoy this game any shot of making a playoff run.
- 8:33Speaker 1: This has to be a win. A load of divisional
- 8:36Speaker 1: games left in the last few games as well, so
- 8:39Speaker 1: let's enjoy this one. Let's hear from Anton Harrison, the
- 8:43Speaker 1: offensive lineman for the Jacksonville Jaguars. I think we should
- 8:47Speaker 1: talk food, key, should we talk.
- 8:49Speaker 2: Food with food with everyone?
- 8:51Speaker 1: Jay? Okay, let's welcome Anton Harrison to till talker. Anton,
- 8:57Speaker 1: how's it going. How do you enjoy your bye week?
- 8:59Speaker 4: Husband Green?
- 9:00Speaker 6: It was good to recover, slow down a little bit,
- 9:02Speaker 6: get your boddy right, but ready.
- 9:04Speaker 4: To do back to work?
- 9:05Speaker 1: Yeah, what did you get up to?
- 9:06Speaker 4: Oh?
- 9:06Speaker 6: No, I just chill with the fam, waiting my brother
- 9:08Speaker 6: a bit. His football season just ended, so chill him
- 9:11Speaker 6: a little bit. I've just seen a fan relax.
- 9:13Speaker 1: Do you do you take that opportunity to time away
- 9:16Speaker 1: from your teammates? So do you like, do you hit
- 9:17Speaker 1: any of them up during the bye week?
- 9:19Speaker 6: No, well, talk to a couple of them. You still
- 9:21Speaker 6: play the game with a couple of them, but seeing
- 9:23Speaker 6: them not really. You try to get away for a
- 9:27Speaker 6: little bit.
- 9:28Speaker 1: Yeah, spend some time away while you can. I understand
- 9:30Speaker 1: that big week getting back to practice. Of course, before
- 9:34Speaker 1: we talk about football, actually, I want to talk about Thanksgiving,
- 9:37Speaker 1: if that's okay, because obviously you know here in the
- 9:39Speaker 1: UK we don't have Thanksgiving, So first of all, can
- 9:42Speaker 1: you just tell me what you're doing, what your plans are.
- 9:45Speaker 6: I saw my fam, they came down Jacksonville, so they
- 9:48Speaker 6: cooking in my house. So me, I'm just sitting around
- 9:51Speaker 6: waiting for the food to be finished with my mother cooking.
- 9:55Speaker 6: He's some good food with the fan, watch some football.
- 9:57Speaker 2: What's on the table and on?
- 10:00Speaker 4: You got the ham, mac and cheese. I'm making the
- 10:03Speaker 4: mac myself.
- 10:04Speaker 2: Nice cheese, the ams.
- 10:08Speaker 4: You got some meatball, turkey, meatballs. Yeah, like barbecue, barbecue meat.
- 10:16Speaker 1: You see, the closest that we've got is obviously Christmas dinner.
- 10:19Speaker 1: But then when you bring out the mac and cheese
- 10:21Speaker 1: and the meatballs. That's why I feel so surprised, because
- 10:25Speaker 1: can you tell us why Thanksgiving dinner is so good?
- 10:27Speaker 4: And I just feel like everybody I love to eat,
- 10:29Speaker 4: everybody love seeing all their food. But really, you get
- 10:32Speaker 4: to beat your family.
- 10:33Speaker 6: Your family comes together. Everybody comes together and spend a
- 10:35Speaker 6: lot of time together. Good food, you have good conversations,
- 10:39Speaker 6: you see people you haven't seen in a long time,
- 10:42Speaker 6: and then you also have do good football. Everybody likes
- 10:44Speaker 6: to watch football on Thanksgiving, so it's just a great
- 10:47Speaker 6: time overall.
- 10:49Speaker 2: More importantly, what makes your mac and cheese so special?
- 10:52Speaker 4: Please?
- 10:54Speaker 6: Well, I kind of try different things. I kind of
- 10:57Speaker 6: switched up the cheese and stuff. But recently my mother
- 11:00Speaker 6: she's been lacking a little bit on the mag and cheese.
- 11:02Speaker 6: So I told her this year. I was a little
- 11:07Speaker 6: scared to say that. First I told her, I said
- 11:09Speaker 6: I got it this year. She just laughed and said,
- 11:11Speaker 6: We're going to see.
- 11:14Speaker 1: You've got loads of pressure on you now, man, You've
- 11:15Speaker 1: got loads of pressure I definitely how many people you're
- 11:18Speaker 1: coming as well? Because I was listening to I was
- 11:20Speaker 1: listening to Happy Hour the other day. Tony BISSELLI was
- 11:22Speaker 1: saying he has like thirty people coming around his.
- 11:26Speaker 6: About seven totally will got everybody didn't come down here.
- 11:29Speaker 6: It's about seven of us.
- 11:31Speaker 1: Did you sit down and do you watch that every
- 11:33Speaker 1: NFL game as well on Thanksgiving?
- 11:36Speaker 4: Oh? Yeah, we have them all on the TV.
- 11:37Speaker 6: You sit down or you just on and off whatever
- 11:39Speaker 6: you really want to do, but we sit down and
- 11:42Speaker 6: watch all of them.
- 11:43Speaker 5: So Anton, I hear that while you were in London
- 11:46Speaker 5: you sampled some classic British foods, including McDonald's.
- 11:53Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 11:54Speaker 6: So when I went out there, we had a little
- 11:56Speaker 6: free time, so I wanted to try some some bridges fools,
- 12:00Speaker 6: but nobody's really recommended anything, so I kind of look
- 12:04Speaker 6: on my own.
- 12:05Speaker 4: So one McDonald's was a quick thing. I knew you
- 12:08Speaker 4: had different meal items.
- 12:09Speaker 6: So I tried to try to stuff not in the US,
- 12:12Speaker 6: and I actually liked everything, but the milkshake.
- 12:14Speaker 4: The milkshake was like the only thing that I could
- 12:17Speaker 4: not drink.
- 12:18Speaker 5: I watched your video It's different over here, bro, Yeah,
- 12:21Speaker 5: I watched it.
- 12:21Speaker 1: I watched your video on YouTube at on of you
- 12:24Speaker 1: trying to milkshake, and I've never seen somebody likes so
- 12:27Speaker 1: disgusted by something in what they.
- 12:30Speaker 4: Try strawberry milkshake. It wasn't that.
- 12:35Speaker 1: What was your favorite thing then that you ate when
- 12:37Speaker 1: you were over here?
- 12:38Speaker 4: It was I went to it. It was a coffee shop.
- 12:42Speaker 4: I got a spicy turna milk.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Oh, you went to Joe in the juice. That's what
- 12:45Speaker 1: I get when I'm Joe in the Juice, A spicy
- 12:48Speaker 1: tune them out. Nice bit of jalapeno on there as well.
- 12:51Speaker 4: Was good because I usually get that here, but I
- 12:53Speaker 4: don't have theopo, so it was a good touch. I
- 12:55Speaker 4: liked it.
- 12:57Speaker 1: What food do you think that we're missing over here
- 12:59Speaker 1: in the UK? In the US that, like you know,
- 13:02Speaker 1: is a staple for me?
- 13:03Speaker 4: I like.
- 13:04Speaker 6: I like Jamaican foods, spicy food, nice like ox tails,
- 13:08Speaker 6: rosta pasta, jerk chicken.
- 13:11Speaker 4: I didn't really see much of that out there. It
- 13:13Speaker 4: was one.
- 13:13Speaker 6: Place, uh that I went to to have like a
- 13:16Speaker 6: jerk bowl. I forgot the name of it. It was
- 13:19Speaker 6: in some mall or something, but that was pretty good.
- 13:22Speaker 6: But I say, need more of that definitely.
- 13:24Speaker 5: And obviously more of your Mac and Chase Jay, did
- 13:29Speaker 5: we need to talk football? I feel like we should.
- 13:31Speaker 5: I feel like we should. Really, it'd be a bit
- 13:33Speaker 5: of a missed opportunity not to right. You know, obviously
- 13:35Speaker 5: you're coming off the bye week now into the next game.
- 13:39Speaker 5: I guess the Houston Texans as well. How are you feeling.
- 13:41Speaker 4: We're feeling good.
- 13:42Speaker 6: We know how much this game being divisional game or
- 13:45Speaker 6: those always big games, but just because it's the next game,
- 13:48Speaker 6: we know we want to win. We don't want to
- 13:51Speaker 6: keep losing, so we have to change it around. So
- 13:53Speaker 6: we all going to have a good mindset coming into
- 13:55Speaker 6: this game, ready to work in so I get this win.
- 13:58Speaker 1: I mean you mentioned that it's a divisional game as well.
- 14:00Speaker 1: You know divisional games, they inherently they mean more, don't
- 14:04Speaker 1: they as well against the team that have had you know,
- 14:07Speaker 1: some pretty good luck against the Jaguars in recent years.
- 14:10Speaker 6: Yeah, definitely, division We want to be the best in
- 14:12Speaker 6: your division, so we know we still have a shot
- 14:16Speaker 6: at that. No matter the record, We're still gonna fight
- 14:18Speaker 6: the winner division and hole things for.
- 14:20Speaker 4: All our way.
- 14:20Speaker 6: But we hold these guys one so as we're gonna
- 14:23Speaker 6: try to get that win Sunday.
- 14:24Speaker 1: And a victory at the Bank for the first time
- 14:26Speaker 1: since early October as well. I mean I can tell
- 14:29Speaker 1: just by looking at it, just like nodding. There you
- 14:31Speaker 1: want this, sad, Definitely we need it. Yeah, what do
- 14:35Speaker 1: it mean? Right What do it mean to you right now?
- 14:36Speaker 1: Just to get that victory in the home stadium.
- 14:41Speaker 6: This is just mean just a lot, just showing that
- 14:44Speaker 6: we know the type of team we could be coming out.
- 14:47Speaker 4: It's just the little things that slows us down.
- 14:49Speaker 6: But just winning this game, it's gonna be just gonna
- 14:52Speaker 6: be a morobles for everybody in a building.
- 14:54Speaker 4: So it's just being for all of us.
- 14:57Speaker 2: Nice to have that fighting talk.
- 14:58Speaker 4: Bro. I like that.
- 14:59Speaker 1: And we need to an update on how this mac
- 15:01Speaker 1: and cheese goes down as well, So I don't know
- 15:03Speaker 1: how we can get that. I need to find out
- 15:05Speaker 1: whether it's absolute failure.
- 15:07Speaker 4: You on Twitter, So just.
- 15:11Speaker 1: Hey, one quick thing onto one quick thing, because I
- 15:14Speaker 1: saw and you posted this on your YouTube video and
- 15:16Speaker 1: you mentioned that no steak should ever be cooked below
- 15:21Speaker 1: medium rare, and I thought that was the worst food
- 15:24Speaker 1: take that I think I've ever ever seen. So you
- 15:27Speaker 1: just go, well done, Okay, you.
- 15:29Speaker 5: Feel safe saying it on zoom where you're physically safe, yeah.
- 15:34Speaker 4: Medi and will I don't go under medium will, so
- 15:39Speaker 4: anything else you might as well.
- 15:41Speaker 6: It might as well still be moving man.
- 15:46Speaker 1: Thank you so much, Thank you so much. Appreciate it.
- 15:50Speaker 1: I think we might have covered food.
- 15:54Speaker 2: I love having.
- 15:56Speaker 5: With the safety of zoom behind you say that to
- 15:59Speaker 5: him the grow mate. Let's see what happens.
- 16:01Speaker 1: I would I will never, I would never hello, I

- 17:19Speaker 1: but I don't want this to overlook the fact that
- 17:21Speaker 1: this is actually very cool what I'm saying. So let
- 17:24Speaker 1: me let me just actually put a serious voice on.
- 17:26Speaker 1: For the first time ever, the Jaguars UK and Ireland

- 18:18Speaker 1: few weeks. Okay, what is on the Sky Show with
- 18:21Speaker 1: Rhys Parkinson?
- 18:22Speaker 5: This Jay Bye Week is often my favorite episode because
- 18:28Speaker 5: we don't have a game to have highlights of, so
- 18:31Speaker 5: we don't have a game to do analysis of, so
- 18:35Speaker 5: it means there's more space in the show to pack
- 18:37Speaker 5: some extra stuff in. So this week's show is full
- 18:41Speaker 5: of really good stuff, all the highlights from the season.
- 18:45Speaker 5: So we've picked our top three players, our top three plays,
- 18:49Speaker 5: and our top three touchdowns to put in the show
- 18:52Speaker 5: from this season. Yeah, it's a really nice piece. I'm
- 18:55Speaker 5: really pleased with it. And then we've got Foyer luakon
- 18:59Speaker 5: chat to Reese as well. And then we've got Reese
- 19:03Speaker 5: hitting the gym like the brand new gym at the
- 19:06Speaker 5: Miller Electric Center, getting a workout, No right, no, certainly
- 19:14Speaker 5: not getting the workout centric Scott who's the strength and
- 19:17Speaker 5: conditioning coach.
- 19:18Speaker 2: That's a really good piece.
- 19:20Speaker 5: And then Tony Bisselli and JP previewing the Texans game
- 19:24Speaker 5: as well as per usual Wednesday night at nine pm,
- 19:28Speaker 5: and if you have already watched that, if this goes
- 19:30Speaker 5: out after that, then there will be repeats throughout the
- 19:32Speaker 5: week and then all the bits are got on the
- 19:34Speaker 5: Jaguars UK YouTube channel as usual.
- 19:36Speaker 1: And that's on Sky Sports. Okay, so every week we
- 19:41Speaker 1: have a question from a big question, in fact, a
- 19:44Speaker 1: big question from a Jaguars fan in the UK and Ireland.
- 19:50Speaker 1: Let's go over to that now we'll say hello to Zach. Okay,
- 19:54Speaker 1: time for the big question. A Jaguars fan from the
- 19:58Speaker 1: UK and Ireland given us the question it is on
- 20:00Speaker 1: their minds at the moment, will attempt to answer it, Zach?
- 20:03Speaker 1: What is your big question?
- 20:06Speaker 3: If you could still another player from any team to
- 20:09Speaker 3: play on the Jags, who would that be?
- 20:10Speaker 4: Oh?
- 20:11Speaker 1: These are one of those really fun questions, you know,
- 20:14Speaker 1: like it's like a proper it's like fantasy. I suppose
- 20:17Speaker 1: in a way, isn't it? And definitely a question, Yeah,
- 20:21Speaker 1: this is too prompt question in a way, isn't it, Zach?
- 20:25Speaker 1: Because essentially you're saying not just saying which player would
- 20:29Speaker 1: you love on the Jags? You're saying, well, which which
- 20:32Speaker 1: position group almost do you think we could have, like,
- 20:35Speaker 1: could the Jags help with having a you know, one
- 20:37Speaker 1: of the best players in the NFL on tough one
- 20:39Speaker 1: kee If you got an.
- 20:40Speaker 5: Answer, I'd like to replace Anton Harrison. No, Zach, really
- 20:46Speaker 5: good question.
- 20:46Speaker 2: I love it.
- 20:47Speaker 5: I think injuries in the receiving core, so maybe strengthen
- 20:52Speaker 5: that area with a receiver and probably the best in
- 20:56Speaker 5: the league right now. And also think he's pretty cool guy.
- 20:59Speaker 5: So I think I'll go with Justin Jefferson.
- 21:01Speaker 1: I'll go wrong with Justin Jefferson. I suppose Justin Jefferson
- 21:04Speaker 1: on one side, Brian Thomas Jr. On the other. I mean,
- 21:08Speaker 1: that's that sounds pretty good to me. That sounds pretty good.
- 21:12Speaker 3: Do you have an answer, Zach, I replaced Trevor Lawrence.
- 21:15Speaker 1: Wow, that is a big, big answer for a big question, Zach.
- 21:19Speaker 1: You've got to explain yourself.
- 21:21Speaker 3: Well, since I injury on that Monday night football game,
- 21:23Speaker 3: it'st the Bills. He has not really been everything that's Ben
- 21:28Speaker 3: says about him, been a bit lacking. So I approach
- 21:30Speaker 3: that Lamar Jackson.
- 21:33Speaker 1: Okay, I don't know what I was expecting, but I
- 21:36Speaker 1: wasn't expecting that to be honest with you, but you know,
- 21:39Speaker 1: fair enough, I kind of feel like you should have
- 21:41Speaker 1: gone last, because whatever I say is going to be
- 21:43Speaker 1: not as not as shocking. I was thinking of two.
- 21:47Speaker 1: I was thinking, maybe you go with the maybe quite
- 21:49Speaker 1: boring answer and maybe putting someone like Antoine Woodenfield Jr.
- 21:53Speaker 1: Or maybe even I quite like Carl Hamilton as well,
- 21:56Speaker 1: both safeties of course, or just because I think he
- 22:01Speaker 1: has been maybe the most fun player in the NFL
- 22:04Speaker 1: this year and is a contender for MVP. I don't
- 22:08Speaker 1: think he'll win it, but he is a contender. Philadelphia
- 22:11Speaker 1: Eagles running back Saquon Barkley would be would be a
- 22:14Speaker 1: lot of fun, would be a lot of fun to have.
- 22:17Speaker 2: Are you saying triple threat in the running game?
- 22:19Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah I am. I'm saying triple threat. But also,
- 22:22Speaker 1: let's be honest, Saquon Barkley is unbelievable at the moment,
- 22:26Speaker 1: so I imagine he'd be taking a lot of a lot
- 22:29Speaker 1: of the snaps. But I don't think any of our
- 22:31Speaker 1: answers were as Yeah. I mean, you're going you're going
- 22:34Speaker 1: bold on Lamar Jackson. But it's a good answer. It's
- 22:36Speaker 1: a good answer none the less, now look, Zach.
- 22:38Speaker 2: He'd look good intoil, he would look good.
- 22:40Speaker 1: Into We have to talk about where you are right now.
- 22:43Speaker 1: So if you're not watching this, so obviously you might
- 22:44Speaker 1: be listening to this on your podcast. If you are
- 22:46Speaker 1: are listening to it, you can go watch this on YouTube,
- 22:49Speaker 1: this whole podcast on YouTube, where you can also see
- 22:52Speaker 1: where Zach is as well. This phenomenal background you've got, Zach.
- 22:57Speaker 1: But it's in somewhere that's quite space. Sure, can you
- 23:00Speaker 1: tell us about it?
- 23:01Speaker 3: It's really started because I saw a TikTok of some
- 23:04Speaker 3: fan caves and for I needs somewhere to watch the
- 23:06Speaker 3: NFL because everyone shouts at home and I watch it
- 23:09Speaker 3: make too much noise. So I'll create wearing a little
- 23:13Speaker 3: covered outside and have a bit of fun. So me
- 23:15Speaker 3: and my dad builds it. It's in the garden, so
- 23:18Speaker 3: I feel it some memorabilia and being Christmas.
- 23:22Speaker 5: How long did it all take that, because it looks
- 23:25Speaker 5: like you've you've planned it for since maybe your fifth birthday.
- 23:29Speaker 3: Well, it started the end of the last season, got
- 23:33Speaker 3: it built over the summer, started doing it up, started
- 23:36Speaker 3: season already for the Christmas time.
- 23:39Speaker 1: And can you talk us through some of your favorite
- 23:40Speaker 1: bits of merchandise you've got there as well? Because I
- 23:42Speaker 1: can see you've got a Wembley twenty twenty four jersey?
- 23:46Speaker 1: Is it behind you? Presumably you only got that like
- 23:48Speaker 1: last month? I imagine.
- 23:49Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 23:50Speaker 3: So I had an idea that with all the events
- 23:52Speaker 3: and signings, I want to try and get as many
- 23:54Speaker 3: people to sign it. So I've got Fred Taylor, Tony
- 23:58Speaker 3: Josh Allen to all Simon shirt and then War at
- 24:02Speaker 3: the Wembley game this year.
- 24:04Speaker 1: I mean, you're not doing too badly are you when
- 24:05Speaker 1: you get people like that, you know, bona fide Jags
- 24:09Speaker 1: Legends to sign your jersey? What other stuff have you
- 24:12Speaker 1: got in your what are we calling it? Jags Christmas Den?
- 24:16Speaker 1: What do you call it?
- 24:17Speaker 2: The jag Cave?
- 24:18Speaker 1: The Jag Cave? I like it.
- 24:21Speaker 3: I've got some Christmas ball balls, some Jags ones.
- 24:23Speaker 1: Oh nice? I mean you can see the Christmas tree
- 24:26Speaker 1: behind you as well, So you are going you are
- 24:28Speaker 1: going full out? Does this mean that you're expecting some
- 24:31Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguar related Christmas presents for yourself? Then this Christmas?
- 24:35Speaker 3: Definitely hoppling new jerseys hopefully any helmet.
- 24:38Speaker 2: How long have you been collecting all this stuff.
- 24:40Speaker 3: That last year. To be honest, over this season and
- 24:44Speaker 3: how did you become a Jags fan? So about five
- 24:46Speaker 3: years ago and my mate wanted me to totch the
- 24:48Speaker 3: Super Bowl with them, so I watched it. I saw
- 24:51Speaker 3: the games in London, so I went to the top
- 24:54Speaker 3: one with Miami Jags. The Jags and that was it.
- 24:57Speaker 1: Really that was Trevor's first.
- 25:01Speaker 2: The first first win as a Jaguar.
- 25:03Speaker 1: Yeah. Well that's quite a game to go to, isn't it.
- 25:05Speaker 3: That one definitely rememberable.
- 25:06Speaker 5: Tell us some of your best memories from that game?
- 25:08Speaker 5: Do because it was it was such a good day.
- 25:10Speaker 3: I think the best memories really got to be the end,
- 25:13Speaker 3: the last kick to steal the win, as well being
- 25:16Speaker 3: my first at the time going to American football game
- 25:18Speaker 3: and I just started watching it so amazing.
- 25:21Speaker 1: Did you so you went to the Wembley Game? Did you?
- 25:24Speaker 1: This year?
- 25:24Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 25:25Speaker 3: So I try and go to the Wembley games every
- 25:26Speaker 3: single year.
- 25:27Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, like, to be honest, I don't know
- 25:29Speaker 1: if I'd be bothered about leaving the Jackie Cave. Once
- 25:32Speaker 1: you've got that set up, you're sort of done, do
- 25:33Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I'm always really jealous when
- 25:35Speaker 1: I see people that have got something like that as well,
- 25:37Speaker 1: because I actively, I actively want one. Maybe not with
- 25:41Speaker 1: a Christmas tree all year round, but you know it's
- 25:44Speaker 1: it's still good. Nonetheless, Zach, mate, thank you so much.
- 25:47Speaker 1: Before you go, it's the Texans game this weekend. We
- 25:51Speaker 1: do predict predictions every single week as to myself and Key,
- 25:56Speaker 1: and we get a guest to do it as well.
- 26:00Speaker 1: We would like your score prediction for the Jags Texans
- 26:04Speaker 1: game on Sunday.
- 26:05Speaker 3: It's going to not really great. I'm gonna say Jags seven,
- 26:09Speaker 3: Texans twenty one. I don't really think we've got a chance.
- 26:14Speaker 3: It's not been our season.
- 26:16Speaker 1: It's honest. Honesty is a great policy.
- 26:18Speaker 2: You are in a safe place.
- 26:22Speaker 1: Yeah, the jag CA Thank you so much, sir, Zach
- 26:25Speaker 1: appreciate it and I mean, have a good Jags bus.
- 26:28Speaker 3: Thank you for having me.
- 26:30Speaker 1: Mate. Oh and by the way, if you want to
- 26:32Speaker 1: be featured as our fan of the week with the
- 26:35Speaker 1: Bigger question, get in touch via the media drop down
- 26:38Speaker 1: on Jaguars dot co dot uk and we will add
- 26:42Speaker 1: you to the listening and hopefully we can get you
- 26:44Speaker 1: on before the end of the season. All right, Key,
- 26:47Speaker 1: we've already heard Zach's prediction an honest man, an honest man,
- 26:53Speaker 1: if we ever did.
- 26:53Speaker 5: Have one, but not a positive one, not a positive one.
- 26:58Speaker 1: Let's go through the standings. Currently, Key, you are bottom
- 27:02Speaker 1: of the standings with two predictions correct throughout the whole season.
- 27:07Speaker 2: I prefer to think of myself as the foundation of
- 27:10Speaker 2: the standings.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Thanks the foundation or the foundation. I think it's very
- 27:15Speaker 1: good the I know the guest slash the fan has
- 27:25Speaker 1: three correct. I have five correct, and I don't feel
- 27:31Speaker 1: good about it because are you feel ashamed?
- 27:35Speaker 4: There?
- 27:36Speaker 1: Go exactly because those are the ones that I A
- 27:38Speaker 1: few of those are the ones that I predicted that
- 27:40Speaker 1: the Jags would not win. However, however, that is not
- 27:46Speaker 1: happening this time around. I am predicting the Jacksonville Jaggius
- 27:51Speaker 1: win at home. Trevor Lawrence returning a a out of
- 27:57Speaker 1: form Houston Texans team. We've got C. J. Stroud not
- 28:01Speaker 1: playing the way that we're used to him playing from
- 28:03Speaker 1: last season. This is an opportunity for the Jacksonville Jaguars
- 28:07Speaker 1: to get up and say, hey, you forgot about us.
- 28:09Speaker 1: You shouldn't count as out. Jaguars to win four seventeen
- 28:16Speaker 1: touchdown win.
- 28:17Speaker 2: I like it a touchdown win.
- 28:21Speaker 1: I'm saying this is a touchdown win, and I think
- 28:23Speaker 1: I think more than anything else. And what's important is
- 28:26Speaker 1: that we see the offense drastically different to the last
- 28:30Speaker 1: few weeks with Trevor Lawrence on the center. Key, what's
- 28:34Speaker 1: your prediction.
- 28:35Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, so I'm going to stick with mine, even
- 28:38Speaker 5: though it's pretty similar to yours. I'm going twenty one
- 28:44Speaker 5: seventeen to the Jags and I'm going pick six on
- 28:48Speaker 5: defense wins the matchup.
- 28:50Speaker 1: Okay, well, yeah, yeah. You always have to just do
- 28:52Speaker 1: that one extra, that little bit of like.
- 28:54Speaker 2: You know, I like a little bit of mustard.
- 28:56Speaker 1: You like what you're going to lose that I've bean? Like,
- 28:58Speaker 1: does it if the score is the set, your score
- 29:00Speaker 1: is correct, but the pick six doesn't happen, do you
- 29:03Speaker 1: still get a point? Yeah?
- 29:05Speaker 2: The pick six is a bonus point.
- 29:07Speaker 1: You're making stuff up and it is absurd.
- 29:12Speaker 5: It is obs You made up that there's a massive
- 29:15Speaker 5: price for this thing.
- 29:16Speaker 2: I need to get more points so that I can
- 29:18Speaker 2: win this big prize that you've made up.
- 29:20Speaker 1: Last week, produced assignment said the biggest prize that in
- 29:24Speaker 1: the history of the world is going to be going
- 29:26Speaker 1: to be given to the winner.
- 29:27Speaker 2: Here it's Sacks Jack.
- 29:32Speaker 1: No heating. In fact, I don't know if he's got heating.
- 29:35Speaker 1: I imagine it does. If he's there on a Sunday evening,
- 29:37Speaker 1: it'll be quite nice anyway. That's by the bye. Very
- 29:39Speaker 1: good Texans at home on Sunday. Let's go, jags Key,
