• 0:05
  Speaker 1: This is the Jaguars broadcast. We can review podcasts presented
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: by ever Bank. I'm JP Shadrick with the best of
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: the week from Jags Radio, Jaguars dot Com, and Jaguars YouTube.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: The Jaguars host the Texans in Week three, but first,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: a look back to last week's lost to the Chiefs
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: with Pete Prisco and Tony Boselli on Jaguars Happy Hour
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Radio Monday, and a focus on the offensive line.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: We got beat up.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: And it's one thing to have a bad game as
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: an offensive line. I've been there, been on offense lines,
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: have given up seven sacks, been on you know days
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: where it doesn't go your way. But when you get
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: beat up physically, that's different. And I think we've been
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: dominated physically the last two weeks. If you just turn
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: on the tape and there's no big, bigger apologist for
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: this group. I love these guys, and I think they're talented.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: I don't think they're a soft group. I don't think
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: they're I think they're a good group. I took issue
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: when they're ranked thirty first in the NFL by the
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: so called experts. I thought that was garbage. I thought
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: this was a top ten group, i'd get to see it.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: And I hate to say it, but the people who
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: ranked them thirty first, they're right now gloating and saying
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: I told you so, and I and me, I'm still
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: I'm fighting for these guys. I believe that they're good
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: and they will be a good unit. But me believe
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: in it and then doing it two different things. Because
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: back to back weeks it was that's the main issue.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: It's by far and away, it's by far and away
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: the main issue. And you know, it's funny before the season,
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: if you would have said Walker Little would be the
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: most consistent. After two weeks, most people have said, no way,
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: no way. He didn't give up a pressure yesterday. None.
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: Every other guy on that line. You know how many
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: of they gave up three each, three each?
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: It was bad.
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: They're bad.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: I think the rookie gave up more than three pet
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: I think every.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: Credited with three. But but again, they're they're not good. Okay,
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: the rookie is going to have struggles. We can criticize
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: a little bit for not given him help in some
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: of those situations.
• 2:02
  Speaker 6: We can also do that.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: But Ben Bartch has been terrible.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: The center.
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: We thought he was going to get stronger and more
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: physical hadn't happened. And the guy making all the money,
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: the high price right guard, he was awful on Sunday
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: with a capitol.
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: I think they could have given Harrison more help feed
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: I would agree with that, especially once it was clear
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: the Chiefs game plan was the lineup their best player
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: on him all day or the most of the day.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Wasn't all day most of the day. He took turns
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: with Sheriff as well, and they and they did late.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: But here's my problem. And I know because Phil rousher
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: was a heck of a coach. He's a really good
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: offense line coach. And I just can't believe that he
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: didn't help and was not talking about this. They slid
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: to Harrison a couple of times, and he's still under set.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: It's like, you know, you have slide to your side
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: over set the big man. Make him go inside if
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: he's gonna go on. You can't get beat on your
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: upfield shoulder when you have inside help. And it wasn't once,
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: it wasn't twice. It was constant and and the whack
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: and and I and I too.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: Let's let's call all that.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: He did not have the same tenacity that I saw
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: on camp in the preseason.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: It's almost like just got him a couple of times
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: and he put his head down and and and most
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: that was.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: I watched it tape this morning and I was I
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: was sitting there and I'm like, and you never know,
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: only he knows this, I'm like, but watching it felt
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: like it got in his head and he just couldn't
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: recover and he just started doing silly stuff. His footwork
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: was bad. He wasn't finishing, he wasn't competing, he wasn't fighting.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: And I saw that in him all camp, in all preseason,
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: and I think that's who he is. And and I
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: get it. Listen, it's a hard position and when it
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: goes sideways, Anya, and it's you feel like, oh my gosh,
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: I'm never gonna be able to block this guy. And
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: you've got to dig deep and just go back to
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: your technique and trust your technique.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Our Radio Monday, airs four to six pm
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: on tentinex LAM, Jaguars dot Com, and Jaguars YouTube. Jaguars
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: quarterback Trevor Lawrence had his Wednesday press conference as usual
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: and said the confidence is still high in the group
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: up front and the offense as a whole.
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: I know those guys are gonna we had some great
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: meetings this morning like we always do on Wednesdays, and
• 4:32
  Speaker 6: some of our protection stuff, and these guys are gonna
• 4:35
  Speaker 6: be just fine, not worried about it. You know, it's
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: all of us. It's it's all of us playing together
• 4:38
  Speaker 6: and communicating. And you know, I don't think any any
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: player on offense played anywhere close to their best game
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: on Sunday, So it's not just those guys. We all
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: got to be better and we will be. And I
• 4:49
  Speaker 6: think we have the group that recognizes that there's nobody
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: that thinks that they played great on Sunday and thinks
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: that they're above any anyone else. So we understand where
• 4:58
  Speaker 6: we're at. And I got a lot of confident and
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: those guys, and we'll put together a great plan and
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: be prepared and it starts today and they're gonna fly around.
• 5:04
  Speaker 6: We'll have a great practice.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: In the locker room. Wide receiver Calvin Ridley said, this
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: group can practice better this week.
• 5:10
  Speaker 7: You hate to see it, but you know that was
• 5:12
  Speaker 7: just what it was.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Last week.
• 5:14
  Speaker 7: I don't know what was going on, but uh, this week,
• 5:17
  Speaker 7: We definitely went out there and it was it was
• 5:19
  Speaker 7: a very efficient practice and everyone you know, got got
• 5:22
  Speaker 7: the loss on our mind and better to you know,
• 5:24
  Speaker 7: get it back, get it, get a bed going.
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: Is there anything that you guys can do on third
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: downs to be a little bit more.
• 5:31
  Speaker 7: Efficient, Yeah, just make the plays, make the blocks, make
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: the catch, and just do what we do. Honestly, we
• 5:37
  Speaker 7: got we got what we need. We just need to
• 5:39
  Speaker 7: execute better.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Wide receiver Christian Kirk had his eighth career one hundred
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: yard game last week, and he knows this offense has
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: the playmakers to get the job done.
• 5:49
  Speaker 8: You know, I think we've been together long enough right now,
• 5:51
  Speaker 8: and we've been in so many different games that have
• 5:53
  Speaker 8: been close like that, you know, to where we make
• 5:56
  Speaker 8: the unbelievable play. Somebody makes the unbelievable play, and we
• 5:59
  Speaker 8: know the time the talent that we have, and so
• 6:02
  Speaker 8: I think at times, you know, guys start to go
• 6:04
  Speaker 8: searching for that play, and you know, you think that
• 6:06
  Speaker 8: it's just gonna happen out of nowhere, when really, you know,
• 6:08
  Speaker 8: you just need to take play by play, take what
• 6:11
  Speaker 8: the defense is given you, and just make the plays
• 6:13
  Speaker 8: when they come to you. So I think that's where
• 6:14
  Speaker 8: the pressing comes. I think it comes from a positive standpoint,
• 6:17
  Speaker 8: not so much of negative.
• 6:18
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 6:19
  Speaker 8: You know, we just know how good we are and
• 6:20
  Speaker 8: we think that you know, one player is gonna just
• 6:23
  Speaker 8: split the game from us, But against teams like that,
• 6:25
  Speaker 8: you know that's not gonna happen.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: On the defensive side, outside linebacker Josh Allen this week
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: discussing how big this week is for the team to
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: get back on track against the Texans.
• 6:35
  Speaker 9: A wins a win in my eye, like the way
• 6:37
  Speaker 9: I see it, A wins a win. You know, if
• 6:40
  Speaker 9: it was the offense that won us a game, I'm
• 6:43
  Speaker 9: I'm celebrating. If it's a defense that want is a game,
• 6:45
  Speaker 9: I'm celebrating. Special teams win them celebrated. So no matter
• 6:49
  Speaker 9: why it looks, get the job done. H. So you
• 6:53
  Speaker 9: know it's gonna be huge. This is a divisional game.
• 6:56
  Speaker 9: It's probably the most important game, as you say, because
• 6:59
  Speaker 9: it's the next one and to be two and on
• 7:01
  Speaker 9: in our conference, well in our division, it's huge. You know,
• 7:04
  Speaker 9: we're trying to win that South so we can get
• 7:07
  Speaker 9: first by and they're on our way and then the
• 7:09
  Speaker 9: next opponing it up. So it's uh, we're ready as
• 7:12
  Speaker 9: you know, the offense. Whatever we're not, we know the
• 7:16
  Speaker 9: office is going to handle what they need to handle.
• 7:18
  Speaker 9: And once once that time comes, we're gonna be rolling.
• 7:20
  Speaker 9: And uh, you know, that's all we're really excited about. Defensively,
• 7:24
  Speaker 9: we have to keep up, keep it up, and keep
• 7:26
  Speaker 9: putting ourselves in positions to get the ball back to
• 7:28
  Speaker 9: the offense.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Safety Andre Cisco had an interception last week and nearly
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: another one, and in the locker room this week described
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: both how long did that ball stay in the air?
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: It seemed like it was up there forever.
• 7:40
  Speaker 10: What was your perspective, Yeah, it's funny. Yeah, it stays
• 7:46
  Speaker 10: in the air so long, especially because you see the
• 7:48
  Speaker 10: reps over and over, you know, watching it on films.
• 7:51
  Speaker 10: So when it comes to life, like, oh, I have
• 7:53
  Speaker 10: to make it, have to make this, you know, it's
• 7:54
  Speaker 10: what you work on and then for to you know,
• 7:56
  Speaker 10: make a play and potentially change the game. It's always
• 7:59
  Speaker 10: good at.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: You you had another one that probably could have gone
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: to the house, right, that's would be the one.
• 8:03
  Speaker 10: He probably sticks with you for a while, right, Yeah,
• 8:05
  Speaker 10: I mean it's I think one of the biggest things
• 8:07
  Speaker 10: for me is come into games betting ready to make
• 8:09
  Speaker 10: the play right away. You know, such an early opportunity,
• 8:11
  Speaker 10: and sometimes you think you gotta get warmed out of
• 8:13
  Speaker 10: the teams, but you can get opportunity. You know, first, second,
• 8:15
  Speaker 10: third plays Tans games, So I.
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: Gotta be ready.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: The press conferences and locker room sound available at Jaguars
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: dot com. On Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks Wednesday, Bucky,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: John Osier and I talked through the quarterback for the Texans,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: the first round pick, rookie c J. Stroud. Let's start
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: with the number two overall pick, CJ. Stroud out of
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: the Ohio State University, A two time Heisman finalists. That
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: is all in the rear view. Buck. He's two games
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: into his career. What have you seen on tape from
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: the rookie?
• 8:44
  Speaker 11: A good player, man, good young player who is gaining
• 8:47
  Speaker 11: confidence each and every week coming off his best performance
• 8:50
  Speaker 11: obviously week two. Just a really solid player. When you
• 8:53
  Speaker 11: watch him in Ohio State, he could throw with touch,
• 8:55
  Speaker 11: timing and anticipation, probably of all the quarterbacks in that
• 8:59
  Speaker 11: class last year, the most natural thrower, meaning the game
• 9:03
  Speaker 11: is easy for him when it comes to dropping back,
• 9:05
  Speaker 11: making throws and doing that stuff. And as he continues
• 9:08
  Speaker 11: to settle in against confidence and develops that synergy and
• 9:11
  Speaker 11: connection with the receivers on the perimeter in Houston, he's
• 9:14
  Speaker 11: gonna be a problem. We better take advantage of the
• 9:18
  Speaker 11: Houston Texas now because this is a team that is
• 9:20
  Speaker 11: on the come. And part of the reason that there
• 9:22
  Speaker 11: is a lot of optimism around what the Texans will
• 9:25
  Speaker 11: be is their young quarterback has a lot of talent.
• 9:27
  Speaker 11: Like Prumps.
• 9:28
  Speaker 12: Yeah, they evidently think they found their guy, and earlier
• 9:31
  Speaker 12: results would suggest the thing that the Jaguars ought to
• 9:35
  Speaker 12: take advantage of this week. You are a good defensive
• 9:39
  Speaker 12: front of the Jaguars that has been getting consistent pressure,
• 9:44
  Speaker 12: has been playing Stout, and you're playing a really beat
• 9:47
  Speaker 12: up offensive line, and Stroud hasn't thrown an interception, but
• 9:51
  Speaker 12: you can certainly pressure a struggling offensive line into making
• 9:56
  Speaker 12: sure his completions are shorter, maybe get one a fumble
• 10:00
  Speaker 12: set he's been hit a lot. At some point, the
• 10:04
  Speaker 12: percentages are when you're getting hit that much, you're gonna
• 10:07
  Speaker 12: make a mistake and throw the other team the ball.
• 10:09
  Speaker 12: So to me, this is where the Jaguars defense, playing
• 10:13
  Speaker 12: well so far, should have a chance to turn in
• 10:16
  Speaker 12: one of those performances where you feel like, man, they
• 10:19
  Speaker 12: hit that guy today.

  Speaker 1: the matchup this week against the Houston Texans and head
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: coach Doug Peterson's Wednesday press conference, he discussed the situational
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: offense improving.
• 11:51
  Speaker 14: Well, that's how you assess it week to week.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: We have to improve.
• 11:54
  Speaker 14: You know, we got to look at it from a
• 11:55
  Speaker 14: coaching standpoint, right, we gotta look at the scheme. Are
• 11:58
  Speaker 14: we are we doing the right things the defense, you know,
• 12:01
  Speaker 14: giving us what we anticipated on tape? You know, are
• 12:04
  Speaker 14: there some changes there? Because sometimes that happens and then
• 12:08
  Speaker 14: and then we have to adjust in games sometimes. But
• 12:10
  Speaker 14: I know it's early, but but we're running out of
• 12:12
  Speaker 14: the early excuse a little bit, and you know, we've
• 12:15
  Speaker 14: got to get it addressed pretty quick. They can't go
• 12:18
  Speaker 14: this week. How do you replace him on the offense? Yeah,
• 12:21
  Speaker 14: that's you know, he's a big one. He's a big
• 12:23
  Speaker 14: part of what we're doing. Obviously, Tim Jones has had
• 12:25
  Speaker 14: you know, some playing experience for us and and can
• 12:27
  Speaker 14: can you know, feel feel that role quite nicely. And
• 12:32
  Speaker 14: and you know they's Zay's a physical receiver who does
• 12:36
  Speaker 14: some of the blocking for us as well. Tim's done
• 12:38
  Speaker 14: that before and and and whatnot. So Tim will get
• 12:41
  Speaker 14: get some work if they you know, if they can't
• 12:43
  Speaker 14: can't go.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: A little more advance than I got it to play
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: the team games.
• 12:49
  Speaker 14: He does, he really does and again you know, keeping
• 12:53
  Speaker 14: things relatively simple where he can just play fast and
• 12:56
  Speaker 14: free and he doesn't have to think about a lot
• 12:58
  Speaker 14: of things, and and and using his skill set, you know,
• 13:02
  Speaker 14: and and getting.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Him out of the pocket.
• 13:03
  Speaker 14: I mean he's he's completing about sixty four percent of
• 13:06
  Speaker 14: his throws right now, which is pretty good for a
• 13:08
  Speaker 14: young player. And and you know two touchdowns and no interceptions.
• 13:11
  Speaker 14: So you know, those are all things that will keep
• 13:15
  Speaker 14: keep gaining you know, h experience for him as he
• 13:19
  Speaker 14: as he plays each week.
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: Kill Anderson, if you start, you are a guy, you
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: kind of have to know where.
• 13:24
  Speaker 9: He's lined up.
• 13:27
  Speaker 14: Yeah, he's uh, he's another one. You know, obviously they
• 13:30
  Speaker 14: drafted him, you know, for a reason to come in
• 13:32
  Speaker 14: and add add some pass rush and you know with
• 13:37
  Speaker 14: with obviously Demico's you know experience with the San Francisco defense.
• 13:42
  Speaker 14: And then you got Matt Burke there who was with
• 13:44
  Speaker 14: me and Philly and Jim Schwartz kind of that wide nine.
• 13:48
  Speaker 14: You know, there's a there's a there's a similarity there,
• 13:52
  Speaker 14: and that's why they got a guy like Will you know,
• 13:54
  Speaker 14: he can get him in a nine technique and he
• 13:55
  Speaker 14: can he can rush, and you know it's green Yard.
• 14:00
  Speaker 14: The other side is doing the same thing. I mean,
• 14:01
  Speaker 14: these two guys can get after the passer. You put
• 14:03
  Speaker 14: the film on and you can't go to sleep on them.
• 14:06
  Speaker 14: And then you get two veteran guys inside that can
• 14:08
  Speaker 14: push the pocket. So this is a good group up front.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Kind of up quickly.
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: It seems like every week there's a guy on the edge,
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: you know, you really bring his game.
• 14:17
  Speaker 14: Yeah, it's kind of interesting because the two games Monday
• 14:20
  Speaker 14: night are the four teams that we're gonna end up
• 14:22
  Speaker 14: playing this season, right, and and all of them have
• 14:24
  Speaker 14: ed rushers, and and now this is this is no
• 14:27
  Speaker 14: different right And Yeah, you grow up as a young player,
• 14:29
  Speaker 14: you grow up fast in this league, and it's unfortunate
• 14:33
  Speaker 14: there's no time for really development growth. You just got
• 14:35
  Speaker 14: to go do it, and and it's our job to
• 14:38
  Speaker 14: help him, you know, and he'll be better. He'll be
• 14:41
  Speaker 14: a lot better this week. He'll be a lot more confident,
• 14:43
  Speaker 14: you know, in his ability and should be a good matchup.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: The full press conference available at Jaguars dot Com and
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Jaguars YouTube. Let's go to a few previews of conversations
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: to come on the official Jaguars podcast network, starting with
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: a Texans perspective from Texans Insider and Houston Texans dot
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: Com lead writer dfe Sidu. Let's start with the head coach,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Tamiko Ryans obviously played there in Houston, a longtime linebacker
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: in the NFL and really cut his teeth in San
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: Francisco as an assistant coach. It's tough sledding early in
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: this season. It's going to be a long build here
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: for Demiko. But what is the tolerance the patients around
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Houston for him and as he puts this organization together.
• 15:24
  Speaker 13: I mean, we'll see.
• 15:25
  Speaker 15: I think that there is more tolerance around Demiko Ryans
• 15:28
  Speaker 15: just because he's not just some guy that you brought
• 15:31
  Speaker 15: in from the coaching process. People have seen what he's
• 15:34
  Speaker 15: able to do as a player, that he was so
• 15:36
  Speaker 15: well regarded and so well respected, I mean Defensive Rookie
• 15:40
  Speaker 15: of the Year, and then when All Pro in his
• 15:42
  Speaker 15: second season, guys like Brian Cushing talked about what Demico
• 15:47
  Speaker 15: Ryans meant to his career as a rookie. When JJ
• 15:51
  Speaker 15: Watt was drafted here in twenty eleven, he said that
• 15:53
  Speaker 15: he found a house across the street from Demico Ryans
• 15:56
  Speaker 15: because he said, if Debiko bought a house in this neighborhood,
• 15:59
  Speaker 15: well there must be something, right, So I'm going to
• 16:01
  Speaker 15: move across the street and live across him. So you know,
• 16:03
  Speaker 15: that's sort of the effect he's had on the players,
• 16:04
  Speaker 15: and so you just know the fans and the city
• 16:07
  Speaker 15: has seen that through the years, and even throughout the
• 16:10
  Speaker 15: coaching process, every single team that was looking for a
• 16:12
  Speaker 15: head coach had put into to interview Demico Ryans and
• 16:17
  Speaker 15: he wanted to come to the Texans. So this was
• 16:20
  Speaker 15: a team sort of left for dead the last few years.
• 16:23
  Speaker 15: I mean, you've had three head coaches in three different years.
• 16:28
  Speaker 15: The you know, all your stars were gone. You've pretty
• 16:30
  Speaker 15: much gone through this rebuild for the last few years.
• 16:33
  Speaker 15: And of all the teams Demico Ryans could have gone
• 16:36
  Speaker 15: and coached for, it was this Texans team that he
• 16:39
  Speaker 15: wanted to come home to. He he calls Houston home,
• 16:42
  Speaker 15: his wife is from Houston, and I think that Houstonians
• 16:45
  Speaker 15: have really embraced Demico Ryans as one of them. And
• 16:49
  Speaker 15: you don't really get to say that too much in
• 16:50
  Speaker 15: the NFL, that you got a head coach that you're
• 16:52
  Speaker 15: excited about because he's from here and we saw him
• 16:54
  Speaker 15: play and we're really invested in him. I think that's
• 16:57
  Speaker 15: what it is. This This city is really invested into
• 17:00
  Speaker 15: Miko Ryans. So I think that there is a lot
• 17:02
  Speaker 15: of patience and forgiveness for Demico Ryans because he's coming
• 17:06
  Speaker 15: into such a tough situation. You know, he's got a
• 17:08
  Speaker 15: rooky quarterback, he's got a brand new coaching staff, and
• 17:11
  Speaker 15: people can see the flashes of what is good about
• 17:14
  Speaker 15: this team. Obviously, c J. Stroud just played his heart
• 17:18
  Speaker 15: out in Sunday's game against the Colts. He was actually
• 17:20
  Speaker 15: questionable heading into this game against the Colts. He had
• 17:23
  Speaker 15: a shoulder injury, wasn't sure if he was going to
• 17:25
  Speaker 15: play all week. Unbeknownst to the rest of us that
• 17:28
  Speaker 15: saw him out at practice and then Friday magically shows up,
• 17:31
  Speaker 15: which is the thing. You don't want to see your
• 17:33
  Speaker 15: starting quarterback on the injury report list. Oh and your
• 17:36
  Speaker 15: left tackles out, and oh three of your four offense,
• 17:39
  Speaker 15: four of your offensive linemen are out, three of which
• 17:42
  Speaker 15: you weren't even here in training camp. So it's it's
• 17:45
  Speaker 15: really been tough from the jump for Demico Ryans. And
• 17:47
  Speaker 15: even then his offense played really hard. Now, the defense
• 17:50
  Speaker 15: played really tough in week one. It was a little
• 17:52
  Speaker 15: bit of Jucklin Hyde from week one to week two.
• 17:54
  Speaker 15: You didn't really see them perform to that same level
• 17:56
  Speaker 15: in week two, and there's a little bit of frustration there,
• 17:58
  Speaker 15: of course. But I think we've seen flashes from both
• 18:02
  Speaker 15: sides of the ball of what is coming together, what
• 18:05
  Speaker 15: Demiko is trying to build. So I think right now
• 18:07
  Speaker 15: there is a lot of patience for Demiico Ryans. I mean,
• 18:09
  Speaker 15: the city is not expecting a championship, super Bowl championship
• 18:15
  Speaker 15: this year. They just want to see some growth. They
• 18:17
  Speaker 15: want to see some improvement week to week. And I
• 18:19
  Speaker 15: think Dimko is the kind of guy that can get either.
• 18:21
  Speaker 15: I think the players respect the heck out of him.
• 18:24
  Speaker 15: Because he's done it. He's done it at a high
• 18:27
  Speaker 15: level and it wasn't even that long ago that he
• 18:29
  Speaker 15: was doing it, So, you know, I think there it's
• 18:32
  Speaker 15: a perfect situation. I think for Texans, fans have a
• 18:35
  Speaker 15: coach that gets them and they get him as well.
• 18:38
  Speaker 15: So I think that Dimico Ryans right now, it's retainly
• 18:42
  Speaker 15: people are way to see with baited breath, and there's
• 18:45
  Speaker 15: still a lot of positivity surrounding him.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Also, this week, Chris Myers has the play by play
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: for the NFL on Fox, and it's nice to speak
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: with you. It's you know, this whole TV change is
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: a little different. We don't see a lot of the
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Fox cruise, especially on an AFC game. There are no
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: rules anymore, Chris, what's up.
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's so it's a wide open with double games
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: on Monday night and Thursday on Amazon and it's it
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: has it's effected the inventory the way we used to
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: see it. But the you know, the playoffs will still
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: have mostly AFC on CBS, NFC on Fox, and then
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: the Super Bowl, but even that could could shift and
• 19:21
  Speaker 5: change with with certain streaming devices. But hey, it's a
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: lot of money. Good for the NFL opens up more
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: viewing opportunities in different ways, I think for fans to
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: see games. But I, you know, originally from Florida, so
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: I always enjoy, you know, getting getting back to Florida to.
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: Do a game.
• 19:35
  Speaker 5: But I actually did you know, did the game last
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: year with the Jags. It was it was a rough
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: one for them when they went to Detroit. We were
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: expecting big things and then after that obviously didn't play
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: well in that game, but after that they took off
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: and then and then really changed their their view nationally
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: when they had that that playoff win and that comeback
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: against the Chargers.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: You know, that really was the wake up call down
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: the stretch for this team last season. Uh, it might
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: be too early for that kind of wake up called.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Last week Mike Qualify against the Chiefs. So you don't
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: score a touchdown for an offense that's so widely regarded
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: coming in, they've got to get it together pretty quick.
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that well was shocking a little at it is.
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: It's only a couple of games, so the teams are
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: sorting things out. But I would say this offense will
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: come around, especially having been around Doug Peterson and I
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: was the field sideline reporter when he was the coach
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: with the Eagles and had that you know, amazing run
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: to the to the to the Super Bowl in titles.
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: So it was a part of that and around him,
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: and so I'm not surprised he's doing well with Jacksonville
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: at his quick inprint here. But I would say the
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: good news is the defense, which which I think everybody
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: has questions or at least did coming into the year.
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: Even with all that talent right that they're supposed to have,
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: they've been very impressive and I think that's the positive
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: in the Chiefs game. I'm just surprised because I don't
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: think the Chiefs have an outstanding defense that the Jags
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: couldn't put up more points. I mean, I followed the
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: notes that heard the comments and not a week of
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: practice and that type of thing and certain things that
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: didn't work out. But I would expect the offense to
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: come around. I mean, I you know, if the defense
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: could keep playing like they're playing and improving, because that's
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: still on there on their minds, that I think the
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: Jags are gonna be okay.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: And finally, part of my weekly conversation with Pride of
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars, running back Fred Taylor. It's too early for
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: a must win, Fred, it's week three. It would be
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: nice to have this one, though.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: I disagree JP. Every every week is a must win,
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: like you want to win those games. Like, yeah, we
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: said it's early, but that doesn't mean, you know, you
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: kind of lay off the gas. It doesn't mean you
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: don't have that sense of urgency. It doesn't mean it's okay,
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: you know you still every week is a must win,
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: like you put in so much work in the off season,
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: or the coaches are stressed, the front office is stressed,
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: you're building a roster. You got to make these hard decisions,
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: make cuts all to just go out there and say
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: we win today. It's okay. No, it doesn't work that way.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: It's a must win now. There are must must wins
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: later in the season. But I like to think of
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: these games as must wins because you got division involved,
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: you got uh tie breakers involved, you got points per
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: a game tiebreakers, you got the playoff. Like, it's so
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: much stuff that when you look back, you're like, man,
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: if we had just done this this week, so, but now,
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: if you have that must win, that extreme sense of
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: urgency mentality, each and every week, starting with practice, then
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: you give yourself an opportunity to be successful. So for me,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: it's a must win each week. And it's not gonna
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: always work that way, but at least if you have
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: that mindset, you shouldn't have any letdowns. You know, mentally,
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: you shouldn't have mental letdowns. Knowing you you went out
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: there with an extreme approach and you gave it your all.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: Great answer, Fred, Well, we see you in London next week.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: Of course, of course, will be pub hopping. You know,
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: we do our thing. You and I Saturday that I
• 23:06

  Speaker 2: We will be at the Pavilion cheering on, rooting on

• 23:21
  Speaker 2: forward to some other stuff. I got a Thursday night
• 23:24
