- 1:07Speaker 2: in Philadelphia on the team battling adversity and their resiliency.
- 1:13Speaker 3: You know, a resilient group. Hats off. I mean some
- 1:17Speaker 3: guys played played banged up. I mean Brandon shurf. My
- 1:22Speaker 3: hat's off to him. He played, He played hurt all game,
- 1:24Speaker 3: you know, and Tom goes back in the game, and
- 1:28Speaker 3: you know, it's just it's it's that time of the year, right.
- 1:32Speaker 3: I mean, guys are gonna be Guys are gonna be sore,
- 1:35Speaker 3: Guys are gonna be hurting. But my hat's off to
- 1:37Speaker 3: those guys for, you know, for hanging in there.
- 1:41Speaker 2: That's the head coach after the game. More from Doug
- 1:43Speaker 2: Peterson today in his Monday press conference coming up a
- 1:46Speaker 2: little bit later on the show CBS Sports senior writer
- 1:49Speaker 2: Pete Prisco and Hall of Fame left tackle Tony Basselli.
- 1:51Speaker 2: He's winning us now, Good afternoon, gentlemen, now too, and
- 1:55Speaker 2: seven and three weeks to Thanksgiving. Pete, here, we.
- 1:58Speaker 4: Are a lot. He's not starting the show.
- 2:01Speaker 5: Now, let's hold on, why are why are Why am
- 2:04Speaker 5: I not starting the show?
- 2:06Speaker 4: Because I said so that doesn't matter, Yeah it does. So,
- 2:10Speaker 4: first of all, we'll get to tune seven. We'll get
- 2:13Speaker 4: to Pete losing his mind about play calling. We'll get
- 2:18Speaker 4: to Nick Sirianni maybe being the management coach.
- 2:23Speaker 5: My entire must be something in the water in Philadelphia.
- 2:26Speaker 4: The only reason that we're chancelated because he was like
- 2:30Speaker 4: was afraid to kick chip shot, field goals and extra points.
- 2:35Speaker 4: Setting all that asud I want to I was thinking
- 2:38Speaker 4: about this last night and most of a lot of today,
- 2:41Speaker 4: and then Doug just said it. That was that was
- 2:45Speaker 4: a bad football game and we were lucky to be
- 2:48Speaker 4: there at the end, and it's unfortunately we couldn't take
- 2:50Speaker 4: advantage of it with that set And that's a I'm
- 2:54Speaker 4: just speak at the on the both lines of scrimmage.
- 2:56Speaker 4: That's two physical groups for the Eagles, offensive defensive lines
- 3:00Speaker 4: physical and we were beat up, especially on that offensive line.
- 3:06Speaker 4: And and I want to give it, I got much
- 3:11Speaker 4: respect for Brandon Sheriff because that dude is on one leg,
- 3:17Speaker 4: he has all kinds of injuries, and he was playing
- 3:20Speaker 4: against one of the most violent, physical young players in
- 3:24Speaker 4: the NFL, Jalen Carter, and he was matched up a
- 3:27Speaker 4: lot of times one on one with him. And I'll
- 3:31Speaker 4: say this, I think Brandon Sheriff played one hell of
- 3:33Speaker 4: a game. Like I was worried because knowing Brandon was
- 3:37Speaker 4: beat up, that Jalen could just ruin this like just
- 3:40Speaker 4: it would get get tough. And I don't know how
- 3:44Speaker 4: he did it because I know some of the stuff
- 3:46Speaker 4: he's dealing with and the fact that he went out
- 3:48Speaker 4: there and battled the way he did, and I thought
- 3:50Speaker 4: he played well. Pete.
- 3:52Speaker 5: I mean, he got beat a couple of different times,
- 3:54Speaker 5: but he fought though.
- 3:58Speaker 2: A couple of times.
- 3:58Speaker 4: But it was late, It wasn't It was never like
- 4:02Speaker 4: you were.
- 4:02Speaker 5: Like an shoot into the gap and throw me. No,
- 4:05Speaker 5: that was like he got off of him a couple
- 4:07Speaker 5: of times in place, but like, but he.
- 4:10Speaker 4: Fought like just battle. I mean, I I can't tell
- 4:14Speaker 4: which I enjoyed and like just as an offensive lineman
- 4:18Speaker 4: having played hurt, going through that playing good players and
- 4:21Speaker 4: to watch him battle like that. I got so much
- 4:23Speaker 4: respect for Brandon Sheriff, Like Pete and I we over
- 4:25Speaker 4: the years of question like you know this, you know
- 4:27Speaker 4: whatever two point maybe not to horizontal, not whatever. Let
- 4:33Speaker 4: me tell you what tip of the cat the Brandon Sheriff,
- 4:36Speaker 4: because that's a pros pro and that dude loves ball.
- 4:40Speaker 5: Which is why why is in the starting lineup, by
- 4:43Speaker 5: the way, and that's why he is like he is.
- 4:47Speaker 5: That was is a good above average guard. No, but
- 4:50Speaker 5: he's a tough, physical guy.
- 4:53Speaker 4: Yesterday he's not.
- 4:54Speaker 5: But he's not. That's not that he was. I said
- 4:58Speaker 5: that yesterday he was good. He had hasn't been. He
- 5:00Speaker 5: hasn't don't.
- 5:02Speaker 4: Watch other guards try to block that kid.
- 5:04Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, but he hasn't been above average guard.
- 5:06Speaker 4: And then the second thing I'll say is I am
- 5:09Speaker 4: disappointed for Cooper Hodges. And we'll get into a little bit.
- 5:14Speaker 4: Cooper Hodges needed to run on his pass walking like
- 5:20Speaker 4: the twist game still got him. He was off kilter
- 5:22Speaker 4: a little bit. But that dude moves people, yep. And
- 5:27Speaker 4: he that big old Jordan Davis. Why like he's like,
- 5:30Speaker 4: I don't care how big guard he moved him, Like
- 5:33Speaker 4: Cooper Hodges is physical. And the fact that and I
- 5:37Speaker 4: don't know if they've reported how bad that he is,
- 5:39Speaker 4: it did not look good. Yeah, I knew he's done
- 5:43Speaker 4: for the year, but I don't know the severity of it,
- 5:45Speaker 4: Like what what's the impact for next year? But that's
- 5:48Speaker 4: a loss because that's a good that's a good young
- 5:51Speaker 4: football player, not saying perfect, not saying great, but a
- 5:54Speaker 4: guy that you could build would have a chance to
- 5:56Speaker 4: be a good starter this league.
- 5:59Speaker 5: You know what, he is a rich Tilski like Pete.
- 6:03Speaker 4: I think it's a great comparison to hard nos physical. Yeah,
- 6:09Speaker 4: so I just wanted to say those two things we're
- 6:10Speaker 4: gonna beat like, we're gonna get in. We're gonna be
- 6:12Speaker 4: critical as we should be. That was like, that was
- 6:14Speaker 4: a that was a pathetic offensive performance for two and
- 6:17Speaker 4: a half quarters. Had thirty one yards one one uh
- 6:23Speaker 4: one first down in the first.
- 6:24Speaker 5: Half the second lowist since you played.
- 6:27Speaker 4: Yep game Packers game national television. We had eighteen yards
- 6:31Speaker 4: and no first downs yep. But we scored fourteen points
- 6:35Speaker 4: in the second half feet that game. So we'll get
- 6:40Speaker 4: into all that. But I just as a guy, and
- 6:43Speaker 4: Doug said it, I've been I actually been thinking about
- 6:46Speaker 4: it all day. I just I got a lot of
- 6:48Speaker 4: respect for guys who do what Brandon Sheriff. He wasn't
- 6:51Speaker 4: the only one who's playing here. By the way, Brian
- 6:53Speaker 4: Thomas Junior was beat up number.
- 6:56Speaker 5: Of guys on the field. I didn't see him.
- 6:59Speaker 2: We'll get I'll get into that. That's coming up.
- 7:03Speaker 4: Trevor. We don't know what's going on, but he came
- 7:05Speaker 4: out late at halftime. Everyone saw that, so who knows
- 7:09Speaker 4: what's going on there? He fought through, you know when
- 7:12Speaker 4: you're down twenty two to nothing on the road and
- 7:14Speaker 4: you're two and sixteen.
- 7:16Speaker 5: I thought they would pack it.
- 7:17Speaker 4: Up pretty easy to lay it down. And I've seen
- 7:20Speaker 4: guys done it. I've seen guys do it before in
- 7:22Speaker 4: the past. Just say I've had enough. Tap out and
- 7:26Speaker 4: they didn't do it. That says I saw.
- 7:29Speaker 5: I saw that last week. I saw the group of guys.
- 7:32Speaker 5: I saw it last week in Tennessee when they went
- 7:34Speaker 5: to Detroit. They tapped out at halftime. This team didn't
- 7:37Speaker 5: tap out. I was real, I'll be honest with you.
- 7:39Speaker 5: I was very surprised they didn't tap out.
- 7:42Speaker 4: Now, they got it. They got a big break with
- 7:43Speaker 4: this Sakwon Barkley fumble, But you know what, that's football.
- 7:50Speaker 5: But they had scored. They had scored to get the
- 7:52Speaker 5: you know with him and make it a decent chance
- 7:55Speaker 5: that they could come back. So you got to give
- 7:56Speaker 5: them credit for that. They had the pass interference penalty
- 8:00Speaker 5: that helped set them up late. But but the bottom
- 8:03Speaker 5: line is they didn't quit. And I thought all along,
- 8:07Speaker 5: I said it all week. I said they'd pack it
- 8:10Speaker 5: up and go home if they got blown out early,
- 8:11Speaker 5: and they didn't, I was wrong. I can sit here
- 8:13Speaker 5: and say I was wrong. Now, there are a lot
- 8:15Speaker 5: of other things that criticize them about. There are a
- 8:17Speaker 5: lot of things to criticize everybody about. But they didn't quit,
- 8:21Speaker 5: and I think that's that's important.
- 8:23Speaker 4: We have an hour and fifty two minutes to do that, Pete.
- 8:25Speaker 5: But I think lave me. I got a lot of
- 8:27Speaker 5: it right here in the old notebook over here. You
- 8:29Speaker 5: know how I jotted down from the tape. You guys
- 8:31Speaker 5: love when I pulled the notebook out right here.
- 8:33Speaker 2: See it right, oh, the little black book the Pete has.
- 8:36Speaker 4: Well, Yeah, I just think it's important to recognize when
- 8:42Speaker 4: guys dude stuff like it's it's a hard game and
- 8:45Speaker 4: that's a hard place to play, and that's a good
- 8:49Speaker 4: that's a good Eagles team, not great, good good.
- 8:55Speaker 2: All right, So now that aside.
- 8:59Speaker 4: I'm not gonna to the meeting.
- 9:01Speaker 2: Yeah, well, let's kind of lean on the defense a
- 9:03Speaker 2: little bit here. We're gonna get into the offense a
- 9:05Speaker 2: little bit later and the issues of the first half
- 9:08Speaker 2: and starting slow again and then you know, just the
- 9:11Speaker 2: turnovers and things that go with that. But defensively, they're
- 9:14Speaker 2: going up against Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley and Barkley
- 9:17Speaker 2: went into the game with thirty two percent of the
- 9:20Speaker 2: scrimmage yards for the Eagles this year, the most of
- 9:23Speaker 2: any player of any team in the NFL. And he
- 9:24Speaker 2: comes out with one hundred and ninety nine more scrimmage
- 9:27Speaker 2: yards in the game and two total touchdowns and highlight
- 9:31Speaker 2: plays and things to go with it. That's one thing
- 9:35Speaker 2: you knew he was probably gonna get his That's just
- 9:37Speaker 2: how he plays. But this defense, guys had lapses in
- 9:40Speaker 2: big moments. Again, third and seventeen, at the nineteen, he
- 9:43Speaker 2: runs it in for a touchdown. Third and long pass
- 9:46Speaker 2: to Devonte Smith for a touchdown. Another big play to
- 9:49Speaker 2: DeVante Smith for forty six yards. So this sounds like
- 9:54Speaker 2: a broken record. Big plays, big moments. This defense can't
- 9:57Speaker 2: hang with him.
- 10:01Speaker 5: The third and seventeen draw is inexcusable.
- 10:05Speaker 4: I would agree with that. The bigger thing I have
- 10:07Speaker 4: an issue with Pete's giving up two urn in thirty
- 10:10Speaker 4: seven yards of rushing like he just you're not gonna
- 10:14Speaker 4: win football games giving up yard like that, And well.
- 10:17Speaker 5: I mean, sixty of it was the quarterback, But you're right,
- 10:19Speaker 5: I don't care.
- 10:20Speaker 4: I'm with you.
- 10:22Speaker 5: I'm with you.
- 10:23Speaker 4: In like thirty seven.
- 10:24Speaker 5: He doesn't even get touched on that play.
- 10:25Speaker 4: No untouched.
- 10:28Speaker 5: And I thought it was Savage's fault that it popped
- 10:33Speaker 5: to the outside.
- 10:34Speaker 4: By the way, I don't know whose fault was.
- 10:36Speaker 5: I can see. I watched the tape over and over again.
- 10:38Speaker 5: He looks like he gets caught and he needs to
- 10:40Speaker 5: be on the outside to kind of rein him in.
- 10:42Speaker 5: But it and a Lua Khan got blocked. You can
- 10:45Speaker 5: play that play over again. He got blocked. But watch Savage,
- 10:48Speaker 5: he comes running inside there out there. Yeah, so I look,
- 10:53Speaker 5: you know me, I like to point fingers, and I'll
- 10:54Speaker 5: point a finger or two if I have to.
- 10:56Speaker 4: Well, here's here's an I got. I received this. I
- 11:00Speaker 4: guess on average, the average NFL team this year allows
- 11:03Speaker 4: opposing offenses to convert about eight percent of the time
- 11:06Speaker 4: on third and fifteen and more. The Jaguars have allowed
- 11:11Speaker 4: opposing offenses to get a first down or a touchdown
- 11:14Speaker 4: thirty nine percent of the time in those situations, which
- 11:20Speaker 4: is the worst mark in football.
- 11:23Speaker 5: Some of that is lack of pass rush, you know that.
- 11:28Speaker 4: I think it's a lot of things, Bete. I mean,
- 11:31Speaker 4: I mean, now, I'm hoping this is correct. It was
- 11:33Speaker 4: sent by someone I trust, so I believe that this
- 11:36Speaker 4: is a correct numbers. BottomLine is this team is not
- 11:39Speaker 4: getting off the field enough. And like I remember sitting
- 11:41Speaker 4: there watching the game and I was like, hey, defense
- 11:43Speaker 4: is playing pretty good. But then I think about it
- 11:47Speaker 4: looking back, if Siriani just kicks extra points, it's twenty
- 11:52Speaker 4: four to nothing.
- 11:54Speaker 5: What was he doing? What is he doing?
- 11:57Speaker 4: If he takes the two field goals, I think thirty
- 12:00Speaker 4: to nothing?
- 12:01Speaker 5: Well, it also, you're up six late in the game,
- 12:04Speaker 5: take a field goal to go up nine.
- 12:05Speaker 4: Well there's another I mean, like little thing that. My
- 12:07Speaker 4: point is the offense was so bad, and yes, the
- 12:13Speaker 4: defense didto some good things. I thought Josh Allen Hinds
- 12:17Speaker 4: Allen played good.
- 12:18Speaker 5: I agree.
- 12:19Speaker 4: I thought Tray Bond was physical in the run. Tough
- 12:22Speaker 4: matchup in the past. I mean, Lane Johnson's the best
- 12:24Speaker 4: tackle in football, probably second best. Okay, together, there were
- 12:33Speaker 4: pretty dang good I thought. I thought Tyson Campbell played
- 12:40Speaker 4: pretty well.
- 12:41Speaker 5: I thought Hamilton had a couple of plays and.
- 12:44Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I thought Hamilton had a couple of nice plays, and.
- 12:47Speaker 2: He was really good on those two point plays. On
- 12:49Speaker 2: the push plays.
- 12:49Speaker 5: He blew those somebody, he knifed in and made a
- 12:52Speaker 5: made a play of the run game behind a lot
- 12:54Speaker 5: of scrimmage. He made a call, he got off a
- 12:55Speaker 5: couple of blocks and came down the line and was
- 12:57Speaker 5: in on a couple of run plays. So he did
- 12:59Speaker 5: a couple of things. It was like, I'm saying, he's
- 13:01Speaker 5: dominating the game, right, Yeah.
- 13:02Speaker 4: Yeah, I get it, but like stopping the Tousch push twice.
- 13:05Speaker 4: But if you look at the whole body of work,
- 13:08Speaker 4: I mean, you gave up twenty eight points and two
- 13:15Speaker 4: hundred and thirty seven yards of rushing offense, and it
- 13:19Speaker 4: could have been a lot worse if you weren't playing,
- 13:22Speaker 4: if you were playing any other coach besides next Sirianni
- 13:27Speaker 4: and so I don't think the defense was the issue.
- 13:31Speaker 4: The big issue in this game is that we continue
- 13:33Speaker 4: to start It's a third straight game that we have
- 13:35Speaker 4: started down ten to nothing.
- 13:40Speaker 2: Yes, yes, Like our offense is.
- 13:44Speaker 4: So inept at the beginning of the games. And I'm
- 13:49Speaker 4: the script, I'm gonna say something that I can't believe.
- 13:52Speaker 5: I'm gonna say, oh boy, this should be good.
- 13:54Speaker 2: Uh huh.
- 13:56Speaker 4: Pete Prisco might be right. Maybe they should just start
- 13:59Speaker 4: the game two minute and just go wow.
- 14:02Speaker 5: Because can we clip that and save that?
- 14:06Speaker 4: Because the only time this offense has got anything going
- 14:09Speaker 4: when they're desperate, and there's desperation.
- 14:13Speaker 2: All right, we've got to leave that hanging. We'll come
- 14:15Speaker 2: back and dig into this.
- 14:16Speaker 5: Ab I love that. I love that. That's the best
- 14:20Speaker 5: I've ever heard of this show coming out of his mouth.
- 14:23Speaker 2: We've got to dig into this when we come back,
- 14:25Speaker 2: because we want the full answer from Tony, that's for sure.

- 15:06Speaker 6: I'm really super proud to be a part of that
- 15:08Speaker 6: group and got a lot of fight and we just

- 16:48Speaker 2: I love that. Hey, let's let's get into this offense.
- 16:51Speaker 4: Now.
- 16:51Speaker 2: We just heard from the quarterback there with the slow
- 16:53Speaker 2: starts thirty one yards in the first half one first down,
- 16:58Speaker 2: which was the opening drive of the by the way,
- 17:01Speaker 2: and and to your point, they Tony, you brought this
- 17:03Speaker 2: up for the break. You think they should go tempo quicker,
- 17:06Speaker 2: quicker tempo earlier in the game. But Doug Peterson talked
- 17:09Speaker 2: about that today. It's like, well, that's great, but you
- 17:11Speaker 2: better get some yards on first down. Are you gonna
- 17:14Speaker 2: go tempo on second and thirteen? Like what there's a
- 17:16Speaker 2: balance there, Well, what's the.
- 17:17Speaker 5: Difference between tempo and second and thirteen and second and nine.
- 17:21Speaker 2: I don't know, you're hustling up there.
- 17:22Speaker 4: I don't know that was coming JP. I agree with
- 17:27Speaker 4: I actually agree with Doug and me saying what I
- 17:31Speaker 4: said was showing my desperation. I'm like, I don't like
- 17:36Speaker 4: they are they need to finger something out, and that's
- 17:40Speaker 4: why I said, maybe Pete's right, maybe like open it
- 17:43Speaker 4: up and go. I mean, at this point, what do
- 17:46Speaker 4: you have to lose? You you're two and seven.
- 17:50Speaker 5: Well, and then here's the other thing, Tony. So they
- 17:52Speaker 5: spent last week game planning and let's see, in a
- 17:55Speaker 5: key situation on the goal line, we're gonna throw and
- 17:58Speaker 5: is sow to our running back out of the backfield,
- 18:00Speaker 5: who happens to be our third team back, who doesn't
- 18:04Speaker 5: even run through the play. So they came that they
- 18:06Speaker 5: came up with, but they can't come up with something
- 18:08Speaker 5: to move the ball in the first half way. What
- 18:10Speaker 5: are we doing here?
- 18:12Speaker 4: Well, let's say that last play because I didn't love
- 18:16Speaker 4: the play call either, but it is what it is.
- 18:20Speaker 5: So I'm saying is that if that's their answer to
- 18:23Speaker 5: that play call they put it in last week, then
- 18:27Speaker 5: clearly they're thinking about trying things and doing things. Well,
- 18:30Speaker 5: try something in the first half. It isn't working in
- 18:34Speaker 5: the first half, so why not play faster and loose
- 18:37Speaker 5: An attack and put somebody on their heels early in
- 18:40Speaker 5: the game.
- 18:41Speaker 4: But Pete, I think they are trying some of the
- 18:43Speaker 4: first half it's not working. They couldn't run it an inch.
- 18:47Speaker 5: Well, okay, then then clearly you got to do something
- 18:49Speaker 5: to try and get it going. Tony. If if what
- 18:53Speaker 5: you're doing isn't working and you continue to do it,
- 18:56Speaker 5: that's insanity.
- 18:58Speaker 4: Pete, I'm not disagreeing with you. I'm saying I actually like,
- 19:03Speaker 4: I'm not trying to ride the fencer. I agree with you,
- 19:05Speaker 4: and I agree with Duck because if you go out
- 19:08Speaker 4: there and play fast, you're gonna be out there for
- 19:10Speaker 4: thirty seconds in the defense, who, by the way, isn't
- 19:14Speaker 4: exactly the eighty five Bears. It's gonna be on the
- 19:17Speaker 4: field even more than they already are.
- 19:20Speaker 5: So so getting thirty one yards in the first half
- 19:23Speaker 5: the way you did it is okay, No.
- 19:26Speaker 4: It's not. That's what I'm saying.
- 19:28Speaker 5: They've got to change it. You gotta change it to go.
- 19:32Speaker 5: He always goes back to the coach who's scared of
- 19:34Speaker 5: his own shadows sometimes, and I'm not just talking about Doug.
- 19:37Speaker 5: I'm talking about around the league. If you go in
- 19:40Speaker 5: with the attitude that if you play fast, you're gonna
- 19:42Speaker 5: be in second and thirteen. Then you're going with the
- 19:45Speaker 5: attitude that you can't complete a pass on the first
- 19:49Speaker 5: down play. That's the attitude you're going in with. Well
- 19:52Speaker 5: that's a failure right there. Then you failed. Your whole
- 19:55Speaker 5: attitude going into that means you failed. So that's what
- 19:58Speaker 5: I'm saying. When you hear play that. Do we have
- 20:01Speaker 5: that clip? It might make me throw up on my shoes, okay,
- 20:07Speaker 5: because it's an awful way to go into a situation.
- 20:10Speaker 5: You don't agree with me on that, Tony. If he's
- 20:12Speaker 5: going in saying, well we could be in second and thirteen,
- 20:15Speaker 5: then you're automatically assuming you fail on the first down play.
- 20:19Speaker 4: But I think what he's saying is they've started slow.
- 20:21Speaker 4: And this is why, Pete, I'm trying to agree with
- 20:24Speaker 4: you and you're being in real pain in my ass.
- 20:26Speaker 4: Just to be clear, you're not.
- 20:28Speaker 5: Agreeing with me. You know what you're doing right now,
- 20:30Speaker 5: You're doing a Tony Boselli classic fence straddling right. I
- 20:34Speaker 5: am not.
- 20:37Speaker 4: Let me be crystal clear. I think they should come
- 20:39Speaker 4: out fast this week. I think there's all kinds of
- 20:43Speaker 4: risks around it because this team has been inept on
- 20:46Speaker 4: offense in the Star Games. They've gone backwards. They can't
- 20:50Speaker 4: get an inch, they can't run it, they can't complete
- 20:52Speaker 4: the pass. They drossed the risk. That's my point. Why
- 20:56Speaker 4: I agree with you. I don't. You're two and seven,
- 21:00Speaker 4: but you might.
- 21:01Speaker 5: You said it was a risk. Where's the risk?
- 21:03Speaker 4: I'm agreeing with you.
- 21:05Speaker 5: I think no, he agrees with me, but then he
- 21:08Speaker 5: always has to put the But I understand what Doug
- 21:11Speaker 5: was saying.
- 21:11Speaker 4: I do because it makes it because here's the risk
- 21:14Speaker 4: of being a coach doing that next thing. You know,
- 21:18Speaker 4: instead of your offense being on the field for ten
- 21:20Speaker 4: minutes of the first half, they're on the field for
- 21:23Speaker 4: five minutes.
- 21:25Speaker 5: Well, it's okay to be on the field for five
- 21:26Speaker 5: minutes of the first half if you hit a play
- 21:28Speaker 5: for eighty yards and a touchdown, isn't it.
- 21:32Speaker 4: Well yeah, but not if your defense, who's already struggling Tony.
- 21:38Speaker 5: It's like the whole stuff that people are talking about
- 21:40Speaker 5: at the end of the game, Well, maybe they should
- 21:41Speaker 5: have run and use some more clock. If they score there,
- 21:43Speaker 5: go score your points. You go score your points and
- 21:46Speaker 5: put it back on them. It's the same pick.
- 21:49Speaker 4: I'm with you. I get that's how you normally act.
- 21:51Speaker 4: But I was sitting in the booth. I didn't say
- 21:53Speaker 4: it on the air, but I was thinking, I'm like,
- 21:55Speaker 4: maybe they should run it here, I mean time out
- 22:00Speaker 4: of some clock because if we score the minute thirty left,
- 22:04Speaker 4: I'm pretty confident that they are going to go score
- 22:07Speaker 4: because that's just the history of this team this year.
- 22:10Speaker 5: But you can't go in with that. You know that
- 22:12Speaker 5: you got to think the best players, you're gonna score touchdown. Now,
- 22:14Speaker 5: the play call we can question, but you got to
- 22:16Speaker 5: go score points there. It's the same attitude, you know.
- 22:19Speaker 5: It's like Tony and this one always gets me. When
- 22:21Speaker 5: the team's backed up at like their ten yard line,
- 22:25Speaker 5: the entire offense changes the way they call the game.
- 22:29Speaker 5: And if you're at the midfields at midfield, why why you.
- 22:34Speaker 4: Want to because a turnover there means more than a
- 22:37Speaker 4: turnover on the other.
- 22:39Speaker 5: But that means you're coaching with the whole mentality that
- 22:41Speaker 5: you're going to turn all over.
- 22:43Speaker 4: Yes, Pete, you know what it's called. Now, this is
- 22:47Speaker 4: where you're being dumb and hard headed. You know what
- 22:49Speaker 4: it's called. Situational football. Pete. That's what it's called.
- 22:53Speaker 5: Why is it situational football because it's always been played
- 22:56Speaker 5: that way.
- 22:57Speaker 4: No, because it's the right way to think. Because the
- 22:59Speaker 4: turnover is points there. If you turn it over and
- 23:02Speaker 4: you're across, it's.
- 23:04Speaker 5: Not turning it over. I'm going to get a touchdown. Okay.
- 23:07Speaker 5: If you're at the one yard line, I could understand it.
- 23:09Speaker 5: But you're at the ten or twelve yard line, you
- 23:10Speaker 5: don't call the game differently than you do if you're
- 23:13Speaker 5: at the midfield. That's stupid. I mean, they've always done it,
- 23:17Speaker 5: they've always done it.
- 23:18Speaker 4: I think you're being ridiculous.
- 23:20Speaker 2: No, I'm not the minimum yard line peak that you
- 23:23Speaker 2: start running the offense for a.
- 23:24Speaker 5: Reef coach scared. If you're coach scared, you're.
- 23:26Speaker 4: Not coaching scared, Pete. That's called coaching smart.
- 23:30Speaker 5: Okay, based on what based on the fact. What what
- 23:33Speaker 5: you're saying is you're basing it on the fact that
- 23:35Speaker 5: you're going to have a negative.
- 23:37Speaker 4: No, I'm not saying that. I'm just saying and I'm
- 23:40Speaker 4: not saying I wouldn't. I would throw it back up.
- 23:43Speaker 4: I think sometimes the best time to take a shot
- 23:44Speaker 4: is when you're on your two yard line because you
- 23:47Speaker 4: know you're gonna get a man outside take a shot.
- 23:49Speaker 5: So what's the rationale for not doing playing different playing
- 23:53Speaker 5: your normal offense in that scenario? What's the rationale for that?
- 23:55Speaker 5: You're afraid of what turning it over? So it's a
- 23:58Speaker 5: negative thinking.
- 23:59Speaker 2: Or and say this, Hey, you gotta know your personnel too.
- 24:02Speaker 2: If you have some weaknesses up front, you don't want
- 24:04Speaker 2: a holding caller in the end zone. Safety, all that
- 24:06Speaker 2: stuff could be in place. Test.
- 24:08Speaker 4: First of all, it's about I'm not It's like, listen,
- 24:11Speaker 4: if I'm backed up, I'm not gonna call straight drop
- 24:14Speaker 4: back passing. Probably I'm gonna run the ball. I'm gonna
- 24:16Speaker 4: play action pass it so I can slow the rush down,
- 24:18Speaker 4: give my chance. Give you know, I might max protect
- 24:21Speaker 4: more when I'm backed up to make sure I can
- 24:24Speaker 4: take a shot. Or I make sure I don't take
- 24:26Speaker 4: a sack. So okay, but there you go.
- 24:28Speaker 5: Right, if you're at the ten yard line and you
- 24:29Speaker 5: go and I let's say they do this, but other
- 24:31Speaker 5: teams do it all the time. You go, run, run,
- 24:33Speaker 5: go make a play on third down, say complete your
- 24:34Speaker 5: punting from your tent your end zone. Anyways, they're giving
- 24:37Speaker 5: them points anyway, So what's the difference.
- 24:39Speaker 4: I didn't say that.
- 24:41Speaker 5: I'm not saying, you know, I'm saying across the league,
- 24:43Speaker 5: and so coaching scared in the whole mentality of second
- 24:47Speaker 5: and thirteen in the hurry up? Is coaching scared? When
- 24:51Speaker 5: you talk that way, you're putting negative thoughts into the
- 24:54Speaker 5: entire idea of going not you. I'm talking about the
- 24:57Speaker 5: coaches who do that.
- 24:59Speaker 4: I just think you'll be a little bit. I guess
- 25:04Speaker 4: the best description is ridiculous, saying that you don't think
- 25:08Speaker 4: about where you are on the field when you're designing.
- 25:11Speaker 5: For me, John, we've gone to a different that's a
- 25:14Speaker 5: whole different argument, the argument about going fast and playing fast.
- 25:17Speaker 5: And I didn't hear Doug's quote, so I don't know
- 25:18Speaker 5: the context of it. But if he said, if you
- 25:20Speaker 5: go fast and you're in second to thirteen, then your
- 25:22Speaker 5: whole mentality about doing it is negative. Would you not
- 25:28Speaker 5: agree with that?
- 25:30Speaker 2: Uh?
- 25:30Speaker 4: I don't know. I guess I think about a little
- 25:33Speaker 4: bit differently, Pete, from the standpoint of, like you have
- 25:36Speaker 4: to like first of all, one of my struggles with
- 25:38Speaker 4: our team right now is I like, what's our identity
- 25:41Speaker 4: like what's our offensive identity?
- 25:44Speaker 5: Well, there isn't one, so I'm trying and create one.
- 25:46Speaker 4: So that's my point. So I get like, I think
- 25:49Speaker 4: a good philosophy and a good offensive identity could be.
- 25:52Speaker 4: I'm not saying this is the only one. Is that
- 25:55Speaker 4: we are going to be a run heavy, play action
- 25:58Speaker 4: past team. That's basically what the Eagles are, right, run heavy,
- 26:01Speaker 4: plays pass. Their last four games, they have thrown the ball.
- 26:07Speaker 4: They have one four straight. They've thrown it. I mean
- 26:09Speaker 4: they've run it much more than they throw it.
- 26:11Speaker 5: Well, the quarterback can run too, that's a different.
- 26:14Speaker 4: I'm not saying that. Okay, Detroit. Detroit is a run heavy,
- 26:18Speaker 4: play action pass team.
- 26:20Speaker 5: And they're offensive line great.
- 26:22Speaker 4: That's my point. So that you you play the game,
- 26:26Speaker 4: and you're okay playing the game where you can grind
- 26:28Speaker 4: it out, shorten the game, take your shots.
- 26:34Speaker 5: If you can run it consistently, we let me finished.
- 26:37Speaker 4: So that's one philosophy. You also can say, hey, we're
- 26:40Speaker 4: gonna be a fast break, full speed, throw it around
- 26:43Speaker 4: the yard. We know we're gonna put the off defense
- 26:45Speaker 4: on the field bit more, but we're gonna go score.
- 26:47Speaker 4: We're gonna score people. Okay, great, like the Dolphins last year.
- 26:50Speaker 4: That's how they played, That's what they did, and there's
- 26:54Speaker 4: like nuances in between. The problem is with the Jaguars
- 26:57Speaker 4: is like, I'm not sure what we are, so I
- 27:00Speaker 4: don't think we can be a grinded out team, especially
- 27:02Speaker 4: against a physical team like the like the Eagles we
- 27:05Speaker 4: played in Detroit in two weeks. Like, I don't think
- 27:08Speaker 4: we're physical enough to grind it out with him.
- 27:10Speaker 5: Okay, we could grind it out against the Vikings, not big, probably.
- 27:13Speaker 4: Against the Vikings, you could, right, but I don't think
- 27:17Speaker 4: that's in our core who we are. It's okay, well,
- 27:21Speaker 4: now are we a spread it out, throw it around
- 27:24Speaker 4: the field and speed it up and take shots? And
- 27:29Speaker 4: I'm not sure we are. That's my problem.
- 27:33Speaker 5: Okay, let me use the Buffalo bill as an example. Okay,
- 27:38Speaker 5: what's their identity.
- 27:41Speaker 4: Josh Allen. They are quarterback centric. Everything's built around him
- 27:44Speaker 4: and they're gonna but they that's.
- 27:46Speaker 5: What That's what the Jacksonville identity should be.
- 27:50Speaker 4: Is Trevor ready for that?
- 27:52Speaker 5: There are moments when you watch him and you say, hell, yeah,
- 27:55Speaker 5: he's ready for that. There are moments when you put
- 27:57Speaker 5: him in obvious passing situations when you say, no, he's
- 27:59Speaker 5: not ready.
- 27:59Speaker 2: For are they paying him to be ready to be that?
- 28:02Speaker 4: Okay, time out, wrong, wrong answer. Just because you pay
- 28:07Speaker 4: a guy doesn't mean he's the guy.
- 28:11Speaker 5: I still go back to the best times he looks
- 28:14Speaker 5: on the football field is when he's playing unburdened and
- 28:20Speaker 5: let him go the Chargers game, the there's other games
- 28:24Speaker 5: where he's pete.
- 28:26Speaker 4: How much of that is is? Are like when you
- 28:29Speaker 4: know this, When defenses get big leads, they also play
- 28:33Speaker 4: a little dry. Hey let's just keep in front of
- 28:35Speaker 4: him a little bit.
- 28:37Speaker 5: Yeah, but at some point in that whole thing, they
- 28:39Speaker 5: get to the point where they say, hey, they're within
- 28:41Speaker 5: fourteen we got to go back to playing a normal
- 28:43Speaker 5: style of defense too. And still and he still came back.
- 28:45Speaker 4: So it's hard for defenses.
- 28:48Speaker 5: I just think if you continue to do what you're
- 28:50Speaker 5: doing and not building it around him and letting him go,
- 28:54Speaker 5: what's the worst thing that happened? You find out that
- 28:56Speaker 5: he's not the guy right now?
- 28:58Speaker 4: I would agree with you. Listen, And maybe it's part
- 29:01Speaker 4: of my own biases, Like I just fundamentally the way
- 29:04Speaker 4: you think, the way you play and build the team
- 29:07Speaker 4: is inside out. You're physical, you run the ball, you
- 29:10Speaker 4: play action pass, you take shots. Like that's how I like.
- 29:13Speaker 5: That's Look, I'm big with that, Tony.
- 29:17Speaker 4: Know what I'm saying is like you probably have much
- 29:20Speaker 4: more You might be more clear thinking on this because
- 29:25Speaker 4: like you don't really care, Like you like that upstyle
- 29:28Speaker 4: that spread it out, throw it around the yard type,
- 29:30Speaker 4: but not.
- 29:31Speaker 5: Too crazy because I like physical. I think you throw
- 29:33Speaker 5: the score, you run the win. That's what I really believe.
- 29:35Speaker 5: I've always believed that. And I'm gonna go to the
- 29:37Speaker 5: Chargers because when the Chargers, when when Harbaugh took over,
- 29:41Speaker 5: we sat here and we're gonna say build the offensive line.
- 29:44Speaker 5: He did. He got physical on the offensive line. You
- 29:46Speaker 5: know what they've done the last three games, They've had
- 29:49Speaker 5: Herbert average over three hundred yards throwing the football because
- 29:53Speaker 5: he's he's he's taken it and he's evolved it and
- 29:56Speaker 5: he's made it better. And that's why they built. You know,
- 29:59Speaker 5: you can't just go way from quarterback with a big
- 30:01Speaker 5: arm who can rip it around well. Jacksonville does at times.
- 30:06Speaker 5: That's all I'm saying. I think they do now they
- 30:08Speaker 5: don't have a neither do the Charges. By the way,
- 30:10Speaker 5: have a great group of wide receivers, so they're good
- 30:13Speaker 5: enough you can move it around. And Strange played eight
- 30:16Speaker 5: nine plays yesterday.
- 30:19Speaker 4: What happened there? Was there anything about why Strange played
- 30:22Speaker 4: too little? I'm gonna ask about that because I thought
- 30:23Speaker 4: Strange was so good.
- 30:25Speaker 5: You looked like a pass catcher last week.
- 30:26Speaker 2: Yeah, he did. We've got plenty ahead. I think, Tony,
- 30:29Speaker 2: the word you were looking for earlier when you were
- 30:31Speaker 2: trying to describe Pete was obtuse. You said ridiculous. Obtuse,
- 30:36Speaker 2: I think is what you were.
- 30:37Speaker 5: I'm stubborn because I think if you keep doing the
- 30:40Speaker 5: same things over and over again, it's just stupidity. Try
- 30:44Speaker 5: something different.
- 30:45Speaker 2: Let's come back. Well, we'll take a look at the
- 30:47Speaker 2: defense again. Because I don't cheer everybody up. Sign up

- 32:07Speaker 2: Pete Prisco, Tony Bisselli, ten ten XLAM Jaguars dot Com,
- 32:11Speaker 2: Jaguars YouTube. The Jaguars have made a roster move this
- 32:15Speaker 2: afternoon about thirty eight minutes ago, right at four o'clock
- 32:18Speaker 2: officially came down that the Jaguars have released safety to
- 32:21Speaker 2: Sean Gibson from the Exempt Commissioner's Permission list. He is
- 32:25Speaker 2: no longer on the team. He's a free agent not
- 32:27Speaker 2: subject to waivers as a veteran, and they have also
- 32:30Speaker 2: placed Cooper Hodges on the reserve injured list. So the
- 32:33Speaker 2: Gibson thing just didn't work out, and that leads us
- 32:36Speaker 2: into the secondary conversation because he won't be a part
- 32:39Speaker 2: of it. Apparently moving ahead.
- 32:40Speaker 5: I wonder if I wonder if he didn't asked to
- 32:42Speaker 5: let him, let me go? I mean, why would you
- 32:45Speaker 5: keep him that whole time? And then he's getting ready
- 32:46Speaker 5: to come off the exempt list, and then your safeties
- 32:48Speaker 5: are playing really bad football and you let him and
- 32:51Speaker 5: you release.
- 32:54Speaker 4: Because now you have to pay him.
- 32:57Speaker 5: Sorry, if you give it up on does that means
- 32:58Speaker 5: you're giving up on the caesar he didn't want to
- 33:00Speaker 5: be here, or you don't think he's better than what
- 33:02Speaker 5: you have. I mean, there's got to.
- 33:03Speaker 4: Be it could be any of those, pete But my
- 33:05Speaker 4: guess is they My guess is they don't think he's
- 33:07Speaker 4: better than what they have.
- 33:10Speaker 5: I mean, it's hard to be worse than some of
- 33:13Speaker 5: the guys that they've had. I'll be honest with you.
- 33:15Speaker 5: I mean that safety position has been a big problem
- 33:17Speaker 5: all year long.
- 33:18Speaker 2: It has it hasn't been good. And there were moments
- 33:22Speaker 2: yesterday where again that hit again, right.
- 33:24Speaker 5: Pete, what's that? Oh? Yeah, I mean on the touchdown,
- 33:28Speaker 5: on the touchdown, the big not the touchdown, the big
- 33:32Speaker 5: play to the Devonte Smith. What the hell was Andre
- 33:37Speaker 5: Cisco doing? He got spun around and now Darby's trailing.
- 33:41Speaker 5: But if you watch Cisco, he thinks he's going to
- 33:43Speaker 5: the corner. He put a move on him. He's standing
- 33:45Speaker 5: there like, not the touchdown, not the other play, the big.
- 33:51Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just like the Dolphins play where Tyreek scored
- 33:54Speaker 2: on right.
- 33:55Speaker 5: Yeah, it's yeah, And they've had problems with that all
- 33:58Speaker 5: year long and continues to be an issue. Look, the
- 34:01Speaker 5: safety something been played well, there's no sugarcoating it. Even
- 34:04Speaker 5: on when they brought in Johnson on the one he
- 34:09Speaker 5: was playing on the run. I think Hurtz got out
- 34:11Speaker 5: the site. He got blocked. Member, he's at the line
- 34:13Speaker 5: of scrimmage and he came up and he got blasted
- 34:15Speaker 5: by the running back and he missed him and he
- 34:16Speaker 5: got through there and went, I mean, the safeties all
- 34:18Speaker 5: year have been a problem. They're not good. Savage had
- 34:21Speaker 5: his issues again. I think he was responsible for the
- 34:23Speaker 5: long run on third down. I think he you know,
- 34:26Speaker 5: he made a play on the on one pass. He
- 34:28Speaker 5: also got beat on that that touchdown by Saquon Barkley.
- 34:32Speaker 5: So the safety play has been an issue all Cross
- 34:36Speaker 5: all year long, and it's going to continue to be
- 34:39Speaker 5: that way.
- 34:40Speaker 4: Now.
- 34:40Speaker 5: Wingard is coming back, right at some point.
- 34:42Speaker 2: Some point his window opened a couple weeks ago, hasn't
- 34:45Speaker 2: been ready yet.
- 34:46Speaker 5: Just think about this though for a second, particularly on
- 34:49Speaker 5: this show. And I thought he played well last year
- 34:51Speaker 5: when he was in there. But before that we used
- 34:53Speaker 5: to I used to criticize wingerd as well. I didn't
- 34:55Speaker 5: think he was that good. Here you are clamoring you
- 35:00Speaker 5: Wingered back in the lineup right about that?
- 35:04Speaker 4: What's really surprising to me about Cisco Pete. And I'm
- 35:08Speaker 4: not saying he's playing the worst of the safeties. I
- 35:10Speaker 4: agree our safety is underperformance year. He's in a contract year.
- 35:13Speaker 5: Yeah, well he's cost himself some money. And here's the
- 35:18Speaker 5: other thing, Tony, if you look at it on paper,
- 35:22Speaker 5: you have a guy you went out and paid in
- 35:25Speaker 5: free agency. You have a draft pick asset in Cisco.
- 35:30Speaker 5: What round was he taken in?
- 35:31Speaker 2: Again, third, wasn't it?
- 35:35Speaker 5: You you what? Antonio Johnson was later on pick, but.
- 35:39Speaker 4: He was a fourth for some reason.
- 35:41Speaker 5: So you look at this group, but there's there's there's
- 35:45Speaker 5: stuff and assets and money put into it. And you're
- 35:48Speaker 5: talking about being excited about having wingered back.
- 35:51Speaker 2: Yeah, Cisco was a third round pick in twenty twenty one,
- 35:54Speaker 2: Antonio Johnson a fifth round pick in twenty twenty three.
- 35:57Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, but that's what I'm saying though. There
- 36:00Speaker 5: just isn't bang for the bucket that position, which is
- 36:03Speaker 5: why you keep having the problems with it. And again
- 36:06Speaker 5: sometimes I think over the years, and it's not just
- 36:09Speaker 5: this team. Teams are guilty of just replacing guys for
- 36:12Speaker 5: the sacred replacing guys. You know, go go get Darnell Savage.
- 36:16Speaker 5: He'll bring that veteran leadership to that group. Really, I
- 36:20Speaker 5: mean seriously, and he hasn't been awful, don't get me wrong,
- 36:23Speaker 5: but as he brought anything that when you sit there
- 36:26Speaker 5: and you go wow, wow, wow, what a great decision.
- 36:29Speaker 5: Then you look at some of the other by the
- 36:30Speaker 5: way some of the other safeties who were signed around
- 36:33Speaker 5: the league, you know who are like on second contracts
- 36:36Speaker 5: going somewhere else. Elijah Molden, he's played well for the Chargers,
- 36:40Speaker 5: came from Tennessee. Julian Love played decent football for Seattle,
- 36:44Speaker 5: came from the Giants. Elliott has played well for the Steelers,
- 36:49Speaker 5: Brandon Jones has played well for the Broncos. These are
- 36:52Speaker 5: all guys that were given up on by other teams.
- 36:54Speaker 5: And so that's my and in fairness to safeties, a
- 36:58Speaker 5: pass rush hasn't been great at times, I get it,
- 37:00Speaker 5: but they haven't played well they have and tackle well
- 37:02Speaker 5: they have, and covered well, they haven't done a lot
- 37:04Speaker 5: of anything. Well.
- 37:05Speaker 4: Well, it made me think of something, Pete. So last
- 37:10Speaker 4: year when this team, you know, went one and six
- 37:15Speaker 4: down the stretch, a lot of injuries. But what you know,
- 37:20Speaker 4: remember the conversation we had going into the off season,
- 37:22Speaker 4: what did we say they need they need.
- 37:24Speaker 8: To improve the offensive line, prove d line here, get
- 37:31Speaker 8: josh heinz Allen signed, and then clean up all the
- 37:36Speaker 8: bus on the back half.
- 37:37Speaker 4: Because remember we had a lot of bus last year, okay,
- 37:41Speaker 4: And the question is what we do at the other
- 37:43Speaker 4: corner because we didn't think we didn't know what they
- 37:46Speaker 4: do with Darius. So if you think about the set
- 37:49Speaker 4: aside the draft, but the free agents we brought in
- 37:52Speaker 4: and the free agents made an impact this year. Like
- 37:55Speaker 4: Mitch Morris, Okay, we're better.
- 37:57Speaker 5: He's better. He's better at center, You're better at center?
- 38:01Speaker 5: Are you great at center?
- 38:02Speaker 4: No?
- 38:02Speaker 5: Are you better at center? Absolutely?
- 38:04Speaker 4: Absolutely, he's like, Okay, good signing. Now I want to
- 38:09Speaker 4: talk about the offensive line a little bit. That I
- 38:12Speaker 4: thought about this with the Cooper Hodges injury and the
- 38:14Speaker 4: trade of Cam last week that happened after our show, So.
- 38:19Speaker 5: We keep going with the free agents.
- 38:20Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go.
- 38:23Speaker 4: Free agent signed? Were Savage.
- 38:28Speaker 5: Not any better? Ronald Darby clearly not better than what
- 38:32Speaker 5: they had they had. Darius Williams, Darius Williams is better
- 38:34Speaker 5: than Derby.
- 38:37Speaker 4: Eric Armstead which this week this week and the I
- 38:41Speaker 4: believe JP at the defensive corriers.
- 38:44Speaker 5: He admitted it.
- 38:45Speaker 4: They confirmed what we had thought. He was promised to
- 38:50Speaker 4: play defensive any when he signed.
- 38:52Speaker 5: Just mystifying to me, you take a three technique and
- 38:56Speaker 5: he wants to play defensive end, and you go, okay,
- 38:58Speaker 5: we'll sign you. We'll let you play defensive end.
- 39:01Speaker 4: I don't understand that for the life of me. And
- 39:04Speaker 4: when he's the only time I've seen him be productive
- 39:07Speaker 4: is when he's inside and he had a couple of
- 39:08Speaker 4: nice rutches. Uh this week, Okay, are you better?
- 39:15Speaker 2: No, you would say, no, you're not better at that's fun.
- 39:17Speaker 5: You'd have better. You'd have been better off going to
- 39:19Speaker 5: give Klais Campbell a one year deal.
- 39:22Speaker 4: Because he's get in there and do the dirty work
- 39:25Speaker 4: gave Davis, gave Davis. Are we better with No?
- 39:30Speaker 5: He runs like he's in concrete. No, you're not better
- 39:33Speaker 5: than better than that.
- 39:36Speaker 4: Duberney. We better?
- 39:38Speaker 5: No, you had a punt returner on your roster, So
- 39:42Speaker 5: I guess was that one. By the way I'm gonna go,
- 39:44Speaker 5: I'm gonna dig deeper into that one. That was an
- 39:46Speaker 5: overthinking of it. That's exactly. We're gonna be smarter than
- 39:48Speaker 5: everybody else, and we're gonna have We're gonna be ahead
- 39:50Speaker 5: of the game on these kickoff returns. We're gonna have two,
- 39:53Speaker 5: and instead everybody just kicks the damn ball out in
- 39:55Speaker 5: the back of the end zone. So you wasted your money.
- 39:59Speaker 4: I get and we spent and none of these guys
- 40:01Speaker 4: were cheap guys, some more expensive than others. But we
- 40:05Speaker 4: But I think that's what the frost. The frustrating thing
- 40:09Speaker 4: at being two and seven high hopes, you know, injuries
- 40:16Speaker 4: last year, narrative that it was just injuries and didn't
- 40:19Speaker 4: have our guys, you know, bad finish, we add some
- 40:24Speaker 4: key free agents and here we go and we just
- 40:31Speaker 4: haven't seen the impact with the guys that we've the
- 40:37Speaker 4: free agents that we we signed.
- 40:39Speaker 2: That's a lot of times how it works in free
- 40:40Speaker 2: agency right there. We've had some special free agents around
- 40:43Speaker 2: here over the years. Ye'd be and we can.
- 40:47Speaker 4: I know we're up against it. But it leads to
- 40:49Speaker 4: me to the next thought I had today thinking about
- 40:51Speaker 4: this team and some of the injuries we are now
- 40:54Speaker 4: going into next year with what I deem is the
- 40:57Speaker 4: most important position group on the entire team of any
- 41:00Speaker 4: team in the NFL after quarterback, offensive line going in
- 41:05Speaker 4: next year and I'm breaking my rule but we're not
- 41:08Speaker 4: gonna talk to draft free agents or anything. But just
- 41:09Speaker 4: looking at like ause the injury or two and seven,
- 41:13Speaker 4: you have no left tackle under contract for next year,
- 41:18Speaker 4: I guess you gotta get you get to see what
- 41:21Speaker 4: Walker little is.
- 41:23Speaker 2: For the next But he's a free agent, is your point.
- 41:26Speaker 4: But he's a free agent. And guess what someone's usually
- 41:31Speaker 4: have to overpay for free agents when they get to
- 41:34Speaker 4: that thing. Okay, so we have no left tackle. Uh,
- 41:39Speaker 4: are one young good offensive lineman that we were trying
- 41:42Speaker 4: to develop? Just who knows how bad his kney is.
- 41:46Speaker 4: You have a center and right guard. Are they going
- 41:51Speaker 4: into their eleventh years next year or twelve years old?
- 41:53Speaker 5: Guys?
- 41:55Speaker 4: So they're gonna go there eleventh years? Last last year?
- 41:58Speaker 4: This is like as and I said, how much.
- 42:01Speaker 5: Would shock you to see either one of them or
- 42:03Speaker 5: both of them just say I'm done? Because there was
- 42:05Speaker 5: always a talk that in Buffalo that the Bills thought
- 42:08Speaker 5: that Morse was coming to the end, if by his
- 42:10Speaker 5: own choosing at some point.
- 42:12Speaker 4: Well, and this is back to back years. The sheriffs
- 42:16Speaker 4: beat up.
- 42:17Speaker 5: Right, how much can he take it? How much can
- 42:19Speaker 5: he take top his nails?
- 42:21Speaker 4: But how much does he have left in the tank?
- 42:23Speaker 2: Right?
- 42:24Speaker 5: And then you got a right tackle who hasn't lived
- 42:27Speaker 5: up to his draft expectations.
- 42:29Speaker 4: I would say this, you got a right tackle that,
- 42:32Speaker 4: in my opinion, has not taken the jump that I
- 42:35Speaker 4: thought he would from year one to year two, correct,
- 42:38Speaker 4: I still think he's a he's.
- 42:39Speaker 5: A Should he be the left tackle?
- 42:41Speaker 4: He's an above average pass walker?
- 42:43Speaker 5: Would he be the left tackle? Tony?
- 42:45Speaker 4: I don't know. He's got to improve his run blocking.
- 42:48Speaker 5: Right, But I'm saying moving forward, not now next year.
- 42:51Speaker 5: Can you go in in the season and say, hey,
- 42:53Speaker 5: you know what, maybe he can be our left tackle? Yeah?
- 42:55Speaker 4: I think something. You gotta go find the right tackles.
- 42:57Speaker 2: Well, he played in college was left tackle.
- 42:59Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he's definitely a left tackle peak, But
- 43:01Speaker 4: then you gotta go find you gotta go find a
- 43:07Speaker 4: a uh right tackle. Right.
- 43:10Speaker 5: It goes back. You don't want to talk about the draft.
- 43:12Speaker 5: It goes back to the draft. It's big, big, big, big, bigger.
- 43:14Speaker 2: That's what the draft we're up against.
- 43:16Speaker 4: It what is We've spent a lot of money and
- 43:19Speaker 4: stuck and like one of our key positions is really
- 43:22Speaker 4: going into next year between injuries and age and free agency.
- 43:27Speaker 4: It's like the boy, we got a lot of work
- 43:29Speaker 4: to do, all right.
- 43:30Speaker 2: We'll dig into that work a little more when we
- 43:31Speaker 2: come back. The Jags face the Vikings this Sunday for
- 43:34Speaker 2: the Jack Salute to Service games. See the shell white
- 43:37Speaker 2: alternate helmets and action for the first time as we

- 43:54Speaker 2: Tony Vasselli Jaguars Happy Hour presented by Jet Home Loans
- 43:58Speaker 2: on ten ten x l a M Jaguars dot Com
- 44:00Speaker 2: Jaguars YouTube. A few minutes away from the second hour
- 44:03Speaker 2: of the program. We'll get to for that ex fan questions.
- 44:06Speaker 2: We'll keep it real because we have it already, and
- 44:09Speaker 2: we'll go around the league. Yes, Tony, guys, a few minutes.
- 44:12Speaker 4: We can't finish this first hour, just in case people
- 44:15Speaker 4: got to leave without talking about what everyone has been
- 44:20Speaker 4: talking about, not everyone, but a lot of people on Twitter.
- 44:22Speaker 4: I know Pete been you know, hitting us up on
- 44:25Speaker 4: it as well as I've heard it from other people.
- 44:28Speaker 4: Is the play that ended the game yesterday, the play golf,
- 44:33Speaker 4: and we haven't talked about that situation. Just to set
- 44:36Speaker 4: it up for everybody and remind everybody, we're down five
- 44:41Speaker 4: and we get the ball after stopping after basically we
- 44:45Speaker 4: get the ball. Was from midfield because of the missed
- 44:48Speaker 4: long field goal pass interference. Bottom line is we're moving
- 44:54Speaker 4: down the field and first and fifteen with a minute
- 44:59Speaker 4: thirty seven last. I mean first, first and ten on
- 45:02Speaker 4: the fifteen with mid to thirty seven left, and we
- 45:05Speaker 4: call a wheel route. Now, Pete, I was watching, there
- 45:09Speaker 4: wasn't much open on the other side, but I think that.
- 45:10Speaker 5: Was not There wasn't really anything open.
- 45:12Speaker 4: I think that's where Trevor was going the whole time though.
- 45:15Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the first read. Doug even said that. Yeah,
- 45:18Speaker 5: And he might have had Washington inside if he waited
- 45:22Speaker 5: a second, but it would have been a tight throw.
- 45:24Speaker 4: He was gonna get sacked. Walker Little had a soft edge.
- 45:29Speaker 4: So and and people have asked me, is why is
- 45:34Speaker 4: During Johnson our third wide receiver, I mean third running
- 45:37Speaker 4: back in the game at the end, and we're gonna
- 45:42Speaker 4: call an isolation route to him against the linebacker. A
- 45:46Speaker 4: couple of things there. One, he might be the third
- 45:49Speaker 4: run back, but he's the number one third down back
- 45:51Speaker 4: when it comes to protection, he's the best back of protecting, picking.
- 45:55Speaker 5: Up which is which is which is why he's in
- 45:57Speaker 5: on those plays.
- 45:57Speaker 4: That's why he's in on those situations too. He's the
- 46:01Speaker 4: second best receiving back we have. He's better catching the
- 46:04Speaker 4: ball than Tank Bingsby. At this point, it was great
- 46:06Speaker 4: in my opinion. So and three, it's actually a matchup.
- 46:12Speaker 4: A lot of coaches are trying to get Pete is
- 46:14Speaker 4: you're running back one on one down the field against
- 46:17Speaker 4: the linebacker. Now, what happened? Well, one, Kobe Dean was
- 46:25Speaker 4: playing over the top the whole time.
- 46:27Speaker 5: He never threatened him with anything like an angle route
- 46:29Speaker 5: or anything like that. He never felt through. You know,
- 46:31Speaker 5: sometimes you get out of the backfield like that and
- 46:33Speaker 5: you can threaten them more than that. You never threatened, right, So, Tony.
- 46:37Speaker 2: You mean over he was playing off the line a
- 46:39Speaker 2: good bit like.
- 46:39Speaker 5: Yeah, back he ran the route for him and by
- 46:44Speaker 5: the way, Erners should have kept running.
- 46:47Speaker 4: So okay, hold on Pete. But so I just want
- 46:49Speaker 4: to make sure everyone understands that that is not like
- 46:52Speaker 4: I've heard people say, that's a terrible call, stupid, blah
- 46:55Speaker 4: blah blah blah blah blah. Okay, First of all, Pete,
- 46:58Speaker 4: Craig Baberrong. Lot of coordinators are trying to get one
- 47:02Speaker 4: on one with the back against the linebacker.
- 47:04Speaker 5: Yeah, let's let's get more into this on the other side,
- 47:06Speaker 5: because I see JP put his finger up and telling
- 47:08Speaker 5: you to hurry the hell up.
- 47:10Speaker 2: We gotta wrap it up. Second hour coming up. We
- 47:12Speaker 2: got plenty of time for this. When we come back.
- 47:14Speaker 2: It's Jaguars Happy Hour.
- 47:20Speaker 3: He played mental gymnastics all day and as a coach,
- 47:24Speaker 3: you can't on a Monday you can talk to your
- 47:29Speaker 3: football team about situational football and situational awareness and say,
- 47:36Speaker 3: you know, okay, we can't we can't do that. You
- 47:38Speaker 3: can't do that as a football team right in those situations.
- 47:43Speaker 5: And as coaches, you go, we could have.
- 47:45Speaker 3: Done this, we could have done that, We should have
- 47:47Speaker 3: done this, we should have done that. And that's the
- 47:51Speaker 3: part that you know, beats you up all the time
- 47:55Speaker 3: as you the longer you're in this business, longer you
- 48:00Speaker 3: coach it, the longer you play it. I think every
- 48:04Speaker 3: coach goes through it.
- 48:05Speaker 2: Every player is going to go through it. Head coach
- 48:08Speaker 2: Doug Peterson today, welcome back. It's our number two of
- 48:11Speaker 2: Jaguars Happy Hour, presented by Mister Chubby's Wings. Before the game,
- 48:16Speaker 2: after the game, and during the game. Doug Peterson discussing
- 48:20Speaker 2: second guessing that happens on Monday and the building. We're
- 48:23Speaker 2: on ten to nextlam Jaguars dot Com, Jaguars YouTube, j
- 48:27Speaker 2: P Shadwick, Tony Bisselli, Pete Priscoe. The Jaguars got in
- 48:30Speaker 2: a twenty two to nothing hole and then rallied to
- 48:33Speaker 2: get close. They had the ball in their hands down
- 48:35Speaker 2: five inside two minutes, but the third giveaway of the
- 48:38Speaker 2: day ended it. We'll have more on that play as
- 48:40Speaker 2: Tony was wrapping up the first hour coming up in
- 48:43Speaker 2: just a moment. The offense struggled through the first half,
- 48:46Speaker 2: though slow start again, thirty one yards, one first down
- 48:49Speaker 2: in the entire first half, Trevor Lawrence's worst rating game
- 48:52Speaker 2: since his rookie year under Urban Meyer. Jack's defense fought again,
- 48:56Speaker 2: but they had key lapses that killed them. Seven plays
- 48:59Speaker 2: of twenty or more yards with the Eagles, plus a
- 49:02Speaker 2: couple of third and long touchdowns for Philly. The Jags
- 49:04Speaker 2: now two and seven. They're fifth loss by five or
- 49:06Speaker 2: less points this season, and now plenty of questions moving
- 49:10Speaker 2: ahead about what this team's going to be the rest
- 49:13Speaker 2: of the year. Up next, the Vikings come to town.
- 49:17Speaker 2: Then it's up to Motown to face the Detroit Lions.
- 49:19Speaker 2: So that's what's going on in the next two weeks
- 49:22Speaker 2: for the Jags before the bye week. All right, guys,
- 49:25Speaker 2: let's let's wrap up this thought about the interception play
- 49:28Speaker 2: at the end that we had to cut off the
- 49:30Speaker 2: first hour because it's it's the huge topic of the day. Certainly,
- 49:34Speaker 2: it really is.
- 49:35Speaker 4: So the reset reset. So Pete, tell me, where are
- 49:39Speaker 4: you disagree? Good match up? I mean getting your running
- 49:44Speaker 4: back matchup with the linebacker favorbles of offense typically rerec
- 49:48Speaker 4: like every coordinator is trying to do that some at
- 49:50Speaker 4: some point. I mean, it's not it's not a bad concept.
- 49:52Speaker 4: Let me put that way.
- 49:53Speaker 5: Well, on first down, Okay, yes, I get it. I
- 49:57Speaker 5: guess what you're saying. I like. I like. I like
- 49:59Speaker 5: backs out of backfield in one on one situation through
- 50:02Speaker 5: the lineback.
- 50:03Speaker 4: Okay, I do too. Second, the Ernest Johnson's in there
- 50:06Speaker 4: because in a two minute situation, he's your best pass
- 50:10Speaker 4: blocking and blitz pick up and aware running back. And
- 50:14Speaker 4: he's and he's and he's better than Tank at catching
- 50:18Speaker 4: the ball in the backfield.
- 50:19Speaker 5: And it better not better than at catches the ball
- 50:21Speaker 5: in the back.
- 50:21Speaker 4: I hope he's better than at blocking and all that
- 50:25Speaker 4: kind of stuff. Buttz pick up, okay, which is protection
- 50:28Speaker 4: first in two minutes, So that's good. And you know
- 50:34Speaker 4: I've also heard and you know, some people say, well,
- 50:36Speaker 4: maybe they should have run it more clock and and
- 50:40Speaker 4: that's an argument. But at the same time, I think
- 50:42Speaker 4: Pete would say, like, you gotta go score and then
- 50:44Speaker 4: go get stops, like you don't try to mickey mouse
- 50:46Speaker 4: around and try to score with no time left, like
- 50:48Speaker 4: you score, let your defense go play.
- 50:50Speaker 5: But let maybe real quick. By the way, if Etn's
- 50:53Speaker 5: running that route or if Digsby's running the route, they're
- 50:56Speaker 5: not open either the way he played it.
- 50:58Speaker 4: So yes, and so the other thing is so also
- 51:02Speaker 4: this is by design Trevor's first read. Now my issue
- 51:07Speaker 4: is him throwing the ball because Dean is over the
- 51:09Speaker 4: top the entire time, and so he's now asking to
- 51:12Speaker 4: throw a fifty to fifty ball to a guy who
- 51:14Speaker 4: is not a fifty to fifty receiver.
- 51:18Speaker 5: And was there not a receiver on that side of
- 51:21Speaker 5: the field, by the way, there wasn't what no, no, no,
- 51:23Speaker 5: I'm saying to start the play, I.
- 51:25Speaker 4: Don't remember, I don't think about it.
- 51:26Speaker 5: But usually when you run that play, a lot of time.
- 51:29Speaker 5: You try and get him. I can't remember either. You
- 51:30Speaker 5: try and get him in traffic where he's got to
- 51:33Speaker 5: get through something to cover him.
- 51:37Speaker 2: If we take a look, yeah.
- 51:40Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, but but but the linebacker already had jumped
- 51:43Speaker 5: out because you had motioned him out, which also brings
- 51:47Speaker 5: him the question.
- 51:48Speaker 4: But back he went over the top of the slant.
- 51:51Speaker 5: Watch watching, watch watch when he motions, he widens yep.
- 51:58Speaker 5: So if you don't motion him, you run that play.
- 52:01Speaker 5: He has to go through trash a little bit rather
- 52:04Speaker 5: than being able to go over the top of it,
- 52:06Speaker 5: which is the design of the play. To me, was
- 52:09Speaker 5: a problem to begin with because I think once they
- 52:11Speaker 5: started Tony, once they start motioning him out, he knows, okay,
- 52:16Speaker 5: if he had it Okay, here's the other part of that.
- 52:18Speaker 5: Did he have a two way go on that route
- 52:20Speaker 5: that if he did jump over the top, that he
- 52:22Speaker 5: comes underneath it. It didn't look that way, right.
- 52:26Speaker 4: So so here's my problem with the play. I don't
- 52:30Speaker 4: love because when you call that play, you know it's
- 52:33Speaker 4: the Ernest Johnson unless he's been repping it in practice,
- 52:36Speaker 4: and he's been doing a great job in practice. I
- 52:37Speaker 4: don't love it. Like I like, in the biggest moments,
- 52:41Speaker 4: I want to try to go to Evan Ingram or
- 52:42Speaker 4: Brian Thomas Junior or like my topper guys. But okay,
- 52:46Speaker 4: set that aside. The two other issues I have is,
- 52:50Speaker 4: I know it's his first read, but looking at it
- 52:54Speaker 4: with the linebacker over the top, you ever throw that
- 52:59Speaker 4: into the back back shoulder where only Duran's can catch
- 53:02Speaker 4: it or throw the row of the crowd right too.
- 53:07Speaker 4: The second issue I have is, if you're Durnis Johnson,
- 53:11Speaker 4: you got to run stopped, you got to run through it.
- 53:16Speaker 4: And the only thing that can happen is na Kobe
- 53:19Speaker 4: Dean catching the ball. I don't care if you have
- 53:21Speaker 4: to beat them, you know, you know what out of them,
- 53:24Speaker 4: tackle them whatever. The game's over otherwise. And so I
- 53:27Speaker 4: didn't understand, and I understand it was his first read,
- 53:30Speaker 4: but I'd love to ask, you know, maybe I'll call
- 53:34Speaker 4: Brunel then and ask him as a quarterback, like, but
- 53:36Speaker 4: if you see the guy over the top, you're still
- 53:38Speaker 4: throwing it. I would like, I know, if it's a
- 53:41Speaker 4: receiver and the guy's over the top, you're throwing the
- 53:43Speaker 4: back shoulder.
- 53:43Speaker 5: But then Brunell throw one of those in the rain.
- 53:46Speaker 5: That's what he threw. The guy was over the top
- 53:47Speaker 5: on him, but he threw it in the rain.
- 53:49Speaker 4: It was a naked though.
- 53:51Speaker 5: He was still over the top.
- 53:53Speaker 4: On might he might have he might have he might
- 53:57Speaker 4: have flashbacks and get upset.
- 53:59Speaker 5: He's gonna get out. But no, Okay, the design of
- 54:04Speaker 5: the play. I had fault with the design of play
- 54:07Speaker 5: because once they motioned him out, the linebacker was widened
- 54:13Speaker 5: and therefore could get the depth on it and wasn't
- 54:15Speaker 5: threatened by anything inside because there was no one he
- 54:19Speaker 5: the receiver couldn't cause any trash once they widened him out.
- 54:23Speaker 5: That's all I'm saying. If they if they kept him
- 54:25Speaker 5: in the backfield and ran that same play, you might
- 54:28Speaker 5: have had a better chance of getting him open because
- 54:30Speaker 5: of the trash that might have caused in front of him.
- 54:33Speaker 5: A and B would have had a harder time getting
- 54:35Speaker 5: over the top on it.
- 54:36Speaker 4: You agreat, Maybe I'm not, as I don't know if
- 54:41Speaker 4: I was angry about the design of the player as
- 54:43Speaker 4: you are.
- 54:45Speaker 5: It's just nippicking the designer. That's just my personal preference
- 54:48Speaker 5: on it.
- 54:49Speaker 2: All right, let's that read. Wasn't there were there any
- 54:51Speaker 2: other reads after that that he could have thrown to
- 54:53Speaker 2: on the other side.
- 54:53Speaker 5: But Tony's right that he was gonna get hit walker
- 54:58Speaker 5: little you know, just whift basically on his guy. Otherwise,
- 55:03Speaker 5: otherwise if he had a little bit of time and
- 55:06Speaker 5: he doesn't like it, which is hard to do, by
- 55:08Speaker 5: the way, because the whole idea is you got that
- 55:10Speaker 5: guy one on one, you're throwing it there. It's hard
- 55:12Speaker 5: to come back to the middle. But if you look
- 55:14Speaker 5: at that play on I think he has Washington on
- 55:18Speaker 5: it slant if he if he wants to go there now,
- 55:21Speaker 5: then he is. You can't get it over the top
- 55:24Speaker 5: of his head there.
- 55:25Speaker 4: I'm looking at it right now.
- 55:26Speaker 5: No, okay, then he has nothing.
- 55:30Speaker 4: He could have checked it down to Ingram for like
- 55:32Speaker 4: a three or four yard game, but he.
- 55:36Speaker 5: Would have gotten hit before any of that happened. But
- 55:39Speaker 5: but the bottom line is there were a couple of
- 55:41Speaker 5: things to nitpick about the play. Would I have run
- 55:43Speaker 5: it with with Deanonners Johnson? No, But when you've got
- 55:46Speaker 5: a guy who's in there is your third down passing back,
- 55:48Speaker 5: then clearly that signals to them that you're running it too.
- 55:52Speaker 5: I mean they're throwing it too. Tony doesn't it.
- 55:57Speaker 4: No, they can run it, like I've been fine with
- 55:59Speaker 4: a run play.
- 56:00Speaker 5: No, but I'm saying usually if he's in there for
- 56:02Speaker 5: pass protection, you're signaling to the defense that it's probably
- 56:05Speaker 5: a pass because you would.
- 56:06Speaker 4: Have but he runs, they'll run it out of that.
- 56:09Speaker 5: Yeah, but I don't know. I just would I've run
- 56:12Speaker 5: that play? Hell? No, Do I think that there's a
- 56:16Speaker 5: better way to run the play if you're gonna run it?
- 56:18Speaker 4: Yes, I guess here's my problem, Pete. I've heard everything
- 56:23Speaker 4: from friends who text me to looking at X like
- 56:28Speaker 4: think that in talking to people I respect, Like that's
- 56:31Speaker 4: a fireball offense. How do you throw that call that
- 56:34Speaker 4: play in that situation? I'm like, I don't know, because
- 56:39Speaker 4: like it's it's not the wrong matchup as far as
- 56:43Speaker 4: like back against the linebacker.
- 56:45Speaker 5: He's pretty good in coverage the Kobe Dean.
- 56:47Speaker 4: No, I'm not saying. I'm not saying he's not. And
- 56:51Speaker 4: I can see Pete's point if you look at the
- 56:52Speaker 4: play again, if they do it out of the backfield,
- 56:55Speaker 4: could maybe you rub and create some traffic for Nakobe Dean? Possibly,
- 56:59Speaker 4: but he I just gonna go over the top more.
- 57:03Speaker 5: You might hit, You might hit him.
- 57:05Speaker 4: Yeah, so I could. That's the fair point.
- 57:09Speaker 5: But so what you're saying is I need to be
- 57:11Speaker 5: their offensive coordinator.
- 57:12Speaker 4: No, I'm not saying that. Nothing on their side that
- 57:16Speaker 4: he should have gone to. It's one on one, and
- 57:19Speaker 4: I guess my point is two things. And maybe this
- 57:22Speaker 4: is maybe you don't do this with a hang back.
- 57:24Speaker 4: I'm not a coordinator. Throw it to the back shoulder,
- 57:27Speaker 4: Throw to the place where only he can make a
- 57:29Speaker 4: great play. If not, it's second down to ten.
- 57:32Speaker 5: And then you could criticize Johnson for all you want,
- 57:34Speaker 5: but he's not used to running that route, that kind
- 57:37Speaker 5: of route like that. They probably practiced it, and the
- 57:41Speaker 5: linebacker probably got caught up in the trash. And because
- 57:43Speaker 5: they probably didn't practice it that way, I didn't like
- 57:46Speaker 5: motioning him out. That bothered me because it's set. It's
- 57:48Speaker 5: it set the message that that's you're gonna be in
- 57:50Speaker 5: a one on one situation unless and Less and I
- 57:53Speaker 5: don't know this. You don't know this, is there is
- 57:55Speaker 5: there an option to that route where he can break
- 57:58Speaker 5: it off and cut inside of that guy.
- 57:59Speaker 4: I don't.
- 58:00Speaker 5: It doesn't look like it.
- 58:01Speaker 4: It doesn't because Parker's running in there. I mean I'll
- 58:05Speaker 4: tell you that. Let me tell you my true thought.
- 58:07Speaker 4: At the moment, I was less worried about the play
- 58:12Speaker 4: call as far as the design. I was more in
- 58:15Speaker 4: the mindset of I would have run the ball there.
- 58:18Speaker 4: I would have forced Philly to burn a time out
- 58:20Speaker 4: there because they were in a weak box. A man
- 58:25Speaker 4: for a man I mean that. I mean you could
- 58:29Speaker 4: run zone. You could, you could zone read it up
- 58:32Speaker 4: the back side, and you have basically a man for
- 58:35Speaker 4: man five for five, and I would try to go
- 58:39Speaker 4: get four or five with the earnest. So second and
- 58:41Speaker 4: five force Sirianni to use the timeout, and now I'm
- 58:46Speaker 4: second and five for the ten.
- 58:48Speaker 5: No, Sirianni, you would let the clock tick off.
- 58:50Speaker 4: Well, then that's fine. Then I know.
- 58:53Speaker 5: I agree. I would have had no problem with a
- 58:55Speaker 5: run in that scenario. So if you think you're scoring
- 58:58Speaker 5: on that play, you have to run that play.
- 59:00Speaker 4: Yeah, But he didn't have to go on that play.
- 59:01Speaker 4: It was first, and it was first at ten for
- 59:03Speaker 4: the fix.
- 59:04Speaker 5: I get it, Tony, but it goes back to my
- 59:05Speaker 5: theory on the whole thing, that you can't worry about
- 59:07Speaker 5: the clock when you got to get the touchdown.
- 59:10Speaker 4: I actually think you can pete when it's first and
- 59:12Speaker 4: ten with a minute forty two and like it's a
- 59:16Speaker 4: do or die because if you don't get in, you
- 59:19Speaker 4: lose the game because you have no timeouts left. So
- 59:21Speaker 4: you can play this to the end. I'm not saying
- 59:24Speaker 4: like take knees or run it right up the middle,
- 59:27Speaker 4: but like right running out.
- 59:28Speaker 5: I would have had the problem with the run play,
- 59:30Speaker 5: but I would not have had a problem with a
- 59:32Speaker 5: run play there. I can't.
- 59:33Speaker 4: My biggest criticism of pressing Doug is not the wheel rout,
- 59:39Speaker 4: not whether you should motion or not, none of that,
- 59:43Speaker 4: Like getting one one with the backer. Okay, I think
- 59:46Speaker 4: the route could have been run better. I think the
- 59:48Speaker 4: ball could have been, like, you know, maybe back shoulder
- 59:51Speaker 4: because he's over the top. Maybe if you don't do that,
- 59:53Speaker 4: have the guy run through. It's probably a contested ball.
- 59:56Speaker 4: Maybe it doesn't intercept it. My biggest issue was why
- 1:00:00Speaker 4: not run the ball there? Why not force them to
- 1:00:04Speaker 4: like get on their heels a little bit, force them
- 1:00:06Speaker 4: to call it time.
- 1:00:07Speaker 5: Now, there's no reason that Trevor should should have thrown
- 1:00:10Speaker 5: that ball where he threw it though, zero nothing. There's
- 1:00:13Speaker 5: nothing that says that guy's even close to being open.
- 1:00:15Speaker 5: It's going to be a throw, so he should not.
- 1:00:17Speaker 5: He should have thrown it into the crowd or you know,
- 1:00:19Speaker 5: short armed it into the dirt or something. There's no
- 1:00:22Speaker 5: way he throws that up.
- 1:00:23Speaker 4: Don't understand when he sees that what makes him say,
- 1:00:26Speaker 4: I'm gonna throw this. That's what I understand.
- 1:00:28Speaker 5: Okay. And and that's not the worst play call that
- 1:00:31Speaker 5: they had of the day.
- 1:00:31Speaker 4: But where was.
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: That the fourth down play? Oh, the fourth and one?
- 1:00:37Speaker 4: That was a.
- 1:00:38Speaker 5: Check by Trevor Well, he checked to a bad play
- 1:00:42Speaker 5: because he checked to I know what they're trying to do.
- 1:00:44Speaker 5: You're supposed to get a rub on. He's supposed to
- 1:00:47Speaker 5: pick him and let him get outside, get the I
- 1:00:49Speaker 5: didn't like the call at all.
- 1:00:50Speaker 4: First of all, let me tell you what I think.
- 1:00:52Speaker 4: It was a check because if you watched the play, Pete,
- 1:00:55Speaker 4: the whole offensive line is running sneak.
- 1:01:00Speaker 5: I mean whatever, he if he checked that, he shouldn't
- 1:01:03Speaker 5: have in part part you know what the play before
- 1:01:07Speaker 5: he was a sneak too, and he didn't get anything.
- 1:01:09Speaker 5: So maybe they had something to do with it. Right,
- 1:01:11Speaker 5: wasn't a third and one and he didn't get to
- 1:01:13Speaker 5: he didn't get anything on the sneak.
- 1:01:15Speaker 4: It went from third and one to third and half.
- 1:01:17Speaker 2: Half of football.
- 1:01:19Speaker 5: Yeah, I would have I would have. I would have
- 1:01:21Speaker 5: run the sneak again.
- 1:01:23Speaker 4: I would have run the sneak again. I would not
- 1:01:25Speaker 4: I would not have thrown the ball no matter what
- 1:01:27Speaker 4: I would have, I wouldn't even have that check in.
- 1:01:32Speaker 5: No, and and it almost That's why I don't know
- 1:01:34Speaker 5: if it Maybe they make it look like a sneak
- 1:01:36Speaker 5: because because Evan is so ready to catch it and
- 1:01:40Speaker 5: do something with it. And usually I don't know, I
- 1:01:42Speaker 5: just I think. And who was the receiver that was running?
- 1:01:46Speaker 5: Was it? Was it? Parker Washington is supposed to kind
- 1:01:49Speaker 5: of pick Cooper Degene, I think, and that's what he's
- 1:01:51Speaker 5: supposed to do. And he didn't. And he made a
- 1:01:53Speaker 5: good play on it. I mean, he made a really
- 1:01:55Speaker 5: good play on it. But I didn't like to call
- 1:01:57Speaker 5: at all. I would have stuck.
- 1:01:58Speaker 4: Achilles heel for two years now, third and one and
- 1:02:01Speaker 4: fourth and one, yeah.
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah sure. Should they have just punted it?
- 1:02:05Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, probably.
- 1:02:08Speaker 2: I mean that's a tradational conservative way, but pun like
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: I always say, punting is okay.
- 1:02:14Speaker 4: Guys.
- 1:02:14Speaker 5: People in this sleegue need to learn that it's okay
- 1:02:16Speaker 5: to punt the football.
- 1:02:17Speaker 4: Sometimes stood why they didn't pete because of the situation
- 1:02:21Speaker 4: they're in and they needed to get something going. That
- 1:02:23Speaker 4: defense been out there. It was going sideways for him.
- 1:02:27Speaker 5: But it's okay if you're on the flip side of
- 1:02:29Speaker 5: the forty. They were on their own where they have the.
- 1:02:30Speaker 2: Thirty nine yard nine, their own thirty nine.
- 1:02:33Speaker 5: Come on, tone, you don't defend that call. It's a
- 1:02:36Speaker 5: terrible call because you just put him in point plank.
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: Rade and they're lucky that Siriani. He decided to go
- 1:02:41Speaker 2: for it better.
- 1:02:42Speaker 5: It's better to be Uh, get that defense on the
- 1:02:46Speaker 5: twenty and the other twenty that on the point blank
- 1:02:48Speaker 5: range on the thirty nine.
- 1:02:49Speaker 4: Okay, we didn't give him any points because Siriani went
- 1:02:52Speaker 4: for it himself.
- 1:02:52Speaker 5: He did, he's a moron.
- 1:02:54Speaker 4: Two. He went on fourth and two instead of kicking
- 1:02:56Speaker 4: a field going on three scores.
- 1:02:58Speaker 2: It was fourth and three officially. Of all things, what
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: are they doing?
- 1:03:02Speaker 5: What are these guys doing? I mean, my.
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: Gosh, Siriani's gonna coach himself out of a job if
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: he keeps doing that kind of stuff. He's gonna cost
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: him some games.
- 1:03:09Speaker 5: But you know what he's done. He's done the old. Look,
- 1:03:12Speaker 5: I'm gonna change my appearance so people talk about it
- 1:03:14Speaker 5: and don't talk about how bad a coach ebra Flus
- 1:03:18Speaker 5: did it. He's doing it. It's amazing these.
- 1:03:21Speaker 4: Guys do well. Here's the thing about going for it
- 1:03:24Speaker 4: on fourth and inches or halfy yard whatever it was,
- 1:03:28Speaker 4: on your own thirty nine. Even if you get it,
- 1:03:32Speaker 4: it's not like you all put yourself in a field
- 1:03:34Speaker 4: goal range, or like you still get to get three
- 1:03:37Speaker 4: or four first downs to go get.
- 1:03:38Speaker 5: A field goal, right, that's what I mean. It's not
- 1:03:42Speaker 5: in point blank range. If you're a point blank range
- 1:03:44Speaker 5: on the thirty nine and you go for it, okay,
- 1:03:46Speaker 5: that's different. You're gonna get one first down and you
- 1:03:48Speaker 5: definitely got it, or maybe don't even need a first
- 1:03:50Speaker 5: down and you kick a field goal. What do you got.
- 1:03:52Speaker 5: There's no endgame there. That makes no sense. I bet
- 1:03:55Speaker 5: you after those play calls that the Eagle fans would
- 1:03:58Speaker 5: over put Roses on Doug style. O.
- 1:04:04Speaker 2: Man, let's come back in a moment. If that's not
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: keeping it real, I don't know what is. But we
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: got to do that when we come back election days
- 1:04:16Speaker 2: tomorrow and we all need to show up big for

- 1:04:35Speaker 2: Chubby's Wings.
- 1:04:44Speaker 3: We were with the time left. We had talked about
- 1:04:46Speaker 3: it on the sideline to kind of slow the pace
- 1:04:49Speaker 3: there at the end, you know, and it's just something
- 1:04:52Speaker 3: you got to try to do right. You can try
- 1:04:53Speaker 3: to if you can, you know, you stay in bounds,
- 1:04:56Speaker 3: you stay in bounds, or if it's in complete, you
- 1:04:58Speaker 3: play another down, whatever it is. But it's to the
- 1:05:00Speaker 3: bottom line is two. We still needed to score.
- 1:05:02Speaker 4: And.
- 1:05:04Speaker 3: You know felt good too with where our defense had played.
- 1:05:08Speaker 3: It would give us a shot.
- 1:05:10Speaker 2: Head goes Doug Peterson after the game yesterday on the
- 1:05:13Speaker 2: final interception strategy behind it and welcome back. It's Jaguars
- 1:05:18Speaker 2: Happy Hour, JP Shatterick Tony Wasselli Pete Prisco after a
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: Jaguars loss in Philadelphia to the Eagles twenty eight to
- 1:05:24Speaker 2: twenty three. The final time now for Keeping It Real,
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: presented by Nobody, and we'll go back to the offense
- 1:05:33Speaker 2: here overall, we've talked about slow starts, We've talked about
- 1:05:38Speaker 2: key moments where there are interceptions. How do you fix
- 1:05:43Speaker 2: it this year? Is it fixable this season or is
- 1:05:47Speaker 2: this something that is a bigger picture problem for the
- 1:05:50Speaker 2: long term.
- 1:05:54Speaker 4: Is it fixable this year? I think a certain degree
- 1:05:59Speaker 4: of it's fixable. So if you play cleaner, catch the
- 1:06:03Speaker 4: balls that are thrown to you, you know, no pre
- 1:06:07Speaker 4: stat penalties, just do the basics, rights, I think there'll
- 1:06:12Speaker 4: be some improvement.
- 1:06:15Speaker 5: Target Brian Thomas more than four times a game.
- 1:06:17Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I would agree with that, Pete. But you're
- 1:06:22Speaker 4: beat up, you're probably at you're you're out with the
- 1:06:27Speaker 4: guy who would have been your number one target coming
- 1:06:29Speaker 4: into the season, Uh, Christian Kirk. So he's out. You
- 1:06:35Speaker 4: got a rookie who's is beat up, but heck of
- 1:06:38Speaker 4: a player, Your big free agent missed the game or
- 1:06:44Speaker 4: when you know this week? So when does he get back?
- 1:06:48Speaker 4: You have a beat up, really beat up offensive line,
- 1:06:50Speaker 4: and and so I'm not sure how much you can
- 1:06:55Speaker 4: fix it. I think you can fix it around the
- 1:06:57Speaker 4: edges and just by playing cleaner and not beating yourself,
- 1:07:02Speaker 4: trying to start a little faster, but I think there's
- 1:07:06Speaker 4: probably limits because of injuries and and maybe you know
- 1:07:11Speaker 4: and sometimes you go also. And I'm not saying this
- 1:07:14Speaker 4: is the time to do it. And I'm not saying
- 1:07:15Speaker 4: this is the case either, by the way, but maybe
- 1:07:18Speaker 4: sometimes you overestimate your talent level two.
- 1:07:21Speaker 5: You know that that is the case, you won't say it.
- 1:07:25Speaker 5: I will that is the case, And I'm guilty of
- 1:07:28Speaker 5: it as anybody. So I can't. I can't sit here
- 1:07:30Speaker 5: and criticize anybody else for saying it, because I'm as
- 1:07:32Speaker 5: guilty as anybody. I thought the talent was better and
- 1:07:35Speaker 5: it's not.
- 1:07:35Speaker 4: Where do you think they're lacking talent?
- 1:07:38Speaker 5: Well, you can start with the offensive line. That's a problem.
- 1:07:43Speaker 5: It's been a problem. It's been a problem for a
- 1:07:45Speaker 5: long time. But look, it's not a problem that's only
- 1:07:48Speaker 5: in their grouping, because it's around the league. It's a problem,
- 1:07:51Speaker 5: but it's a big problem with Jacksonville. I think it's
- 1:07:54Speaker 5: a problem on the defensive interior. I think those guys
- 1:07:59Speaker 5: are they try, they're good players, they're not I mean,
- 1:08:02Speaker 5: they're backups. That's what those guys are. You would like
- 1:08:04Speaker 5: to have Hamilton and that group led better as backups.
- 1:08:08Speaker 5: You don't want them starting. You need a monster in there.
- 1:08:11Speaker 5: You need somebody that's gonna tear people up in both
- 1:08:14Speaker 5: the past game and the run game. They don't have that.
- 1:08:16Speaker 5: That's a weakness the linebackers in coverage, and they weren't
- 1:08:19Speaker 5: awful yesterday, but for the most part this season, the
- 1:08:22Speaker 5: coverage has been terrible for the linebacker group and then
- 1:08:25Speaker 5: the safety. So I've always been a big believer and
- 1:08:28Speaker 5: you build from the edges the way the game is played.
- 1:08:32Speaker 5: But they're so bad up the middle right now that
- 1:08:35Speaker 5: that's a problem. And so when that's a problem, it
- 1:08:38Speaker 5: kind of filters out to the edges. And the fact
- 1:08:40Speaker 5: that you have two really good edge play those are
- 1:08:43Speaker 5: good edge players. They're not you know, look, they're not
- 1:08:45Speaker 5: put their hands on the ground and go blow by
- 1:08:47Speaker 5: in win every consistently like a von Miller and is Heyday.
- 1:08:50Speaker 5: But they're both good, physical, tough edge players. They don't
- 1:08:54Speaker 5: get any help from the inside. And that's why, you know,
- 1:08:57Speaker 5: like heinz Allen sack numbers are down, he's having a
- 1:09:01Speaker 5: you go back and watch the tape, he's having a
- 1:09:02Speaker 5: good year, and so I think that contributes to it all.
- 1:09:07Speaker 5: So I think when we do talk about the talent.
- 1:09:10Speaker 5: I thought Hamilton would go back to what he was
- 1:09:12Speaker 5: before his injury. He hadn't done that. I thought Armstead
- 1:09:15Speaker 5: would play on the inside and be what he was
- 1:09:17Speaker 5: with the forty nine ers at times in his career.
- 1:09:19Speaker 5: He hasn't done that. I thought Lloyd would take the
- 1:09:22Speaker 5: next step this year. He hasn't done that. Then you
- 1:09:26Speaker 5: go to the middle of the field. The safeties. We
- 1:09:28Speaker 5: talked about them. They've been a total F. I mean
- 1:09:31Speaker 5: that's an F from where we thought Cisco would be
- 1:09:34Speaker 5: in a contract year to what they paid Savage to
- 1:09:37Speaker 5: come in and play, to Antonio Johnson who flashed at
- 1:09:41Speaker 5: times as a rookie and regressed. That's an F. So
- 1:09:44Speaker 5: you add it all up, and you and you know,
- 1:09:46Speaker 5: compound the problem by having Darby playing a man coverage
- 1:09:49Speaker 5: which he can't, which he doesn't do very well. And
- 1:09:52Speaker 5: you didn't have Campbell for all those games. That's why
- 1:09:55Speaker 5: your defense has been bad. It's easy to see, it's
- 1:09:58Speaker 5: not hard. And then the offensive line is the problem.
- 1:10:00Speaker 5: On the offensive side of the ball.
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a long list, but okay.
- 1:10:08Speaker 4: You and I talked about this, So I just go
- 1:10:12Speaker 4: back to last year thinking about the team that how
- 1:10:14Speaker 4: we finished at nine and eight and so disappointing, and
- 1:10:17Speaker 4: we talked about where we thought they needed to get better,
- 1:10:20Speaker 4: and you know, before we signed off for the year,
- 1:10:25Speaker 4: and I think we talked about this in camp, and
- 1:10:26Speaker 4: I remember looking back over what we did in free
- 1:10:29Speaker 4: agency and the draft, and my big question as we
- 1:10:35Speaker 4: were sitting around, I think it was me, maybe Longes Hair, JP,
- 1:10:38Speaker 4: whoever is is this team any better than it was
- 1:10:43Speaker 4: last year? And my answer at the time is I
- 1:10:46Speaker 4: didn't think so. I didn't see anything that they did
- 1:10:50Speaker 4: that made them better. Like I didn't see anything they
- 1:10:54Speaker 4: added on defense compared to the losses they had on defense.
- 1:10:58Speaker 4: With the additions, I didn't see them better, especially when
- 1:11:03Speaker 4: I had heard, you know, we had all had heard
- 1:11:05Speaker 4: at the time, which was confirmed by Ryan Nielson this week,
- 1:11:08Speaker 4: that Armsteair was going to be a defensive end.
- 1:11:11Speaker 5: But training camp, you didn't think he was going to
- 1:11:13Speaker 5: be a defensive end. You thought he was going to
- 1:11:14Speaker 5: be a defense He wasn't around him training was practicing. Yeah, right,
- 1:11:18Speaker 5: but you thought he was going to be a defensive tackle.
- 1:11:20Speaker 4: We I thought someone told us that they that that
- 1:11:23Speaker 4: was part of them signing him. I thought that.
- 1:11:25Speaker 5: I think that came later, but okay, but I mean
- 1:11:28Speaker 5: we were sitting there thinking they'd be better at the middle,
- 1:11:30Speaker 5: because you thought he'd beat Eric Armstead from the forty
- 1:11:32Speaker 5: nine ers.
- 1:11:33Speaker 4: I was worried about it, though he's a ten year
- 1:11:34Speaker 4: vet and he's hurt coming up in trees. I was
- 1:11:37Speaker 4: always worried about it because just I mean, age is
- 1:11:40Speaker 4: undefeated unless you're Tom Brady. And so I didn't know
- 1:11:44Speaker 4: where we had like improved across the board based on
- 1:11:49Speaker 4: the losses and then the free agent Okay, then you
- 1:11:52Speaker 4: move to the offensive side, and I didn't know what
- 1:11:55Speaker 4: we had done better. Now granted I did worse. I
- 1:12:00Speaker 4: didn't think Brian Thomas Jr. Was gonna be what he
- 1:12:04Speaker 4: is when we.
- 1:12:05Speaker 5: Drive and see I did, I did not? I did,
- 1:12:09Speaker 5: I did not.
- 1:12:10Speaker 4: He's a good player. I thought the only thing we
- 1:12:12Speaker 4: had done to improve ourselves was adding Mitch Morris, which
- 1:12:15Speaker 4: I was also worried about, not because of Mitch Morris
- 1:12:17Speaker 4: is the player, just because his ten year bet and
- 1:12:20Speaker 4: how much you know, how much gas does he have
- 1:12:23Speaker 4: in the tank. And so I came in the season thinking,
- 1:12:27Speaker 4: you know, I'm hoping, you know, We talked about the
- 1:12:30Speaker 4: first show, Treffor's gotta have a big year, got you
- 1:12:32Speaker 4: gotta jump? Because I didn't think Gave Davis was better
- 1:12:35Speaker 4: than h than what's his number zero last year Jones?
- 1:12:40Speaker 5: He doesn't run better than he wasn't better.
- 1:12:42Speaker 4: In Jay Jones. And I didn't think Brian Thomas Junior
- 1:12:44Speaker 4: is a rookie, would be better than Ben Ridley. Well, yes, yes,
- 1:12:49Speaker 4: I was wrong about that, but I didn't. I didn't
- 1:12:54Speaker 4: think Gabe would be better than Jay Jones. And I
- 1:12:56Speaker 4: thought Jay Jones probably better blocker. But we did and
- 1:13:01Speaker 4: so I didn't see as being two and seven. But
- 1:13:05Speaker 4: we talked about it, Pete, how much better would we be?
- 1:13:07Speaker 4: Because I thought we had a tough pretty good. I
- 1:13:10Speaker 4: didn't know the NFC North was gonna be the Gauntlet,
- 1:13:15Speaker 4: but I thought we'd be you know, you know, somewhere
- 1:13:19Speaker 4: between eight nine and eleven and you know six, I
- 1:13:23Speaker 4: mean we'd be. We talked about it that we would
- 1:13:26Speaker 4: be fighting for the playoffs. We have a chance to
- 1:13:29Speaker 4: go to the playoffs and win the division in December.
- 1:13:32Speaker 5: And we were wrong about that. Wrong, I was wrong. Hey,
- 1:13:35Speaker 5: but here's the other thing, Tony.
- 1:13:38Speaker 4: But Pete, my whole point is if you go back,
- 1:13:39Speaker 4: this team also finished one and six last year and
- 1:13:42Speaker 4: what we just went through. I'm the fool because I
- 1:13:45Speaker 4: didn't think we got much better.
- 1:13:49Speaker 5: Wells who is a player? Who is a player that
- 1:13:53Speaker 5: they brought it?
- 1:13:54Speaker 4: I'll give you two guys. Tank Bigsby's better.
- 1:13:57Speaker 5: Okay, So he's technically your backup running bat. So okay,
- 1:14:00Speaker 5: that's good. You have a nice backup running back to
- 1:14:02Speaker 5: go with Threaten strange and nine snaps.
- 1:14:08Speaker 4: You asked me who got better?
- 1:14:09Speaker 5: But he's such a threat that they had nine snaps
- 1:14:11Speaker 5: on Sunday. There's there's something wrong there.
- 1:14:15Speaker 4: Walker better, Ventra Miller is much better.
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: Yes he is, well, he didn't.
- 1:14:20Speaker 4: He was hurt last year too, That's why he's better.
- 1:14:22Speaker 5: Okay, But again, also I didn't see this happening.
- 1:14:28Speaker 4: I A'm Brandish airs playing better this year than needed
- 1:14:30Speaker 4: last year. But you don't usually see that of a
- 1:14:35Speaker 4: ten year guys.
- 1:14:36Speaker 5: My point, But and then we can flip it to
- 1:14:38Speaker 5: this thing. You see, you caught a touchdown pass last
- 1:14:40Speaker 5: night for the Vikings.
- 1:14:41Speaker 2: Right, Josh Oliver Oliver?
- 1:14:44Speaker 5: Okay, So Josh Oliver was known when he came to
- 1:14:47Speaker 5: Jacksonville's what a blocker, right, wasn't even pretty dark good
- 1:14:49Speaker 5: blocker at times in the early in his career. That's
- 1:14:51Speaker 5: what they thought he would be.
- 1:14:52Speaker 2: That's what they thought.
- 1:14:53Speaker 4: I tried to I tried to block these things out.
- 1:14:57Speaker 5: Saying we could go through this whole thing. The same
- 1:14:59Speaker 5: with Quincy will Williams. It's you got rid of those guys.
- 1:15:02Speaker 5: They were on your roster. They're contributors for teams other
- 1:15:07Speaker 5: teams where they now you had to go draft to
- 1:15:09Speaker 5: replace them. Why just for the sake of replacing them?
- 1:15:14Speaker 5: What's the reason?
- 1:15:15Speaker 4: Oh, so this goes back to the keeping the real
- 1:15:18Speaker 4: what do you need to get better? Well, we are
- 1:15:21Speaker 4: now if you look, we were eight and three last
- 1:15:25Speaker 4: year yep, which seems like a like a thousand years ago.
- 1:15:30Speaker 5: Was that an accident? That's the question you got to ask.
- 1:15:32Speaker 4: Well, we can remember how we won them, like we
- 1:15:34Speaker 4: were playing pretty good, really good, complimentary football, and we
- 1:15:38Speaker 4: were getting tons of turnovers. Remember that.
- 1:15:41Speaker 5: And and I want to go back who were the
- 1:15:43Speaker 5: teams they beat in that run too? I think if
- 1:15:45Speaker 5: we go looking back at some of the teams they
- 1:15:47Speaker 5: beat in that run, we go, oh, they beat the Bills, yeah,
- 1:15:51Speaker 5: and buff But that was one of those ones where
- 1:15:52Speaker 5: they went to the London. Remember they got they weren't
- 1:15:55Speaker 5: They had that idea how to handle that. That was
- 1:15:58Speaker 5: part of that and they got it. They lost about
- 1:15:59Speaker 5: six game, right, Okay.
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: Last year they beat the Colts, they beat the Falcons,
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: they beat the Bills, both in London. They beat the
- 1:16:06Speaker 2: Colts again, they beat the Saints, they beat the Steelers.
- 1:16:10Speaker 5: I mean, okay, okay, but here's my point.
- 1:16:14Speaker 4: Beat we were eight and three. Regardless, we were eight
- 1:16:18Speaker 4: and three. Since then, we have gone three and thirteen.
- 1:16:28Speaker 4: So when you asked me, what are you gonna do
- 1:16:30Speaker 4: to get better, it's not just two and seven. Yes,
- 1:16:34Speaker 4: we've added a couple of draft picks. Yes we've added
- 1:16:36Speaker 4: a couple free agents. But our offense it's eight of
- 1:16:44Speaker 4: the same eleven guys yet last year.
- 1:16:47Speaker 5: It's true, but nobody's gotten better, including the quarterback. And
- 1:16:53Speaker 5: I think the quarter I'll be honest with you, I
- 1:16:54Speaker 5: think the quarterback's being held back by this team. I
- 1:16:57Speaker 5: really do. I think they're ruining him. I'll say it.
- 1:17:00Speaker 5: If you get an offense, if you get an offensive
- 1:17:02Speaker 5: guy in here, like Ben Johnson or something like that,
- 1:17:05Speaker 5: I guarantee he's a significantly better player.
- 1:17:08Speaker 4: Pete, I fundamentally disagree with you on that comment. Why why,
- 1:17:15Speaker 4: Because this is what in my opinion, If you think
- 1:17:20Speaker 4: firing a coach is gonna fix everything you.
- 1:17:23Speaker 5: Are, That's not what I'm saying. That's not what I'm saying.
- 1:17:26Speaker 5: What I'm saying you.
- 1:17:27Speaker 4: Said, Okay, Pete, you can't replace a guy without firing
- 1:17:31Speaker 4: a guy. So you're saying I disagree with you a
- 1:17:35Speaker 4: thousand percent. If you think somehow Ben Johnson coming into
- 1:17:38Speaker 4: here is gonna be a magic pill and flip the
- 1:17:40Speaker 4: switch and all of a sudden you're gonna be good.
- 1:17:42Speaker 4: I disagree with that.
- 1:17:43Speaker 5: Okay, So then you don't think the quarterback is You
- 1:17:45Speaker 5: can have it one or two ways. Either they've taken
- 1:17:48Speaker 5: the quarterback and not made him grow, or he's not
- 1:17:50Speaker 5: very good one it's one or two. It's one or
- 1:17:53Speaker 5: the other. It can't it has to be why he's
- 1:17:56Speaker 5: not as good as it was a year ago. I
- 1:17:58Speaker 5: don't think.
- 1:17:59Speaker 4: Do you.
- 1:18:00Speaker 5: Think when he was healthy, when he was healthy last year,
- 1:18:03Speaker 5: he's as good now as he was then the same,
- 1:18:07Speaker 5: So he hasn't gotten better and.
- 1:18:10Speaker 4: The same.
- 1:18:12Speaker 5: So he hasn't gotten better. So is this who he
- 1:18:16Speaker 5: is or have they made him this It's got to
- 1:18:21Speaker 5: be one of the other.
- 1:18:24Speaker 2: Maybe we don't know yet. Maybe there's enough samples.
- 1:18:26Speaker 4: Playing a different style.
- 1:18:28Speaker 5: Now, like I'll go back to yesterday, the throat to Washington.
- 1:18:33Speaker 5: You saw Washington. He's gotta go, he's got to get
- 1:18:35Speaker 5: depth on that. That's good, that's what you gotta But
- 1:18:38Speaker 5: he also kind of bended off. He's got to be complete.
- 1:18:40Speaker 5: That's gonna be the forty yard completion. You saw it
- 1:18:44Speaker 5: happened to a couple other times where guys didn't run
- 1:18:47Speaker 5: the right they stopped. They kind of there's no there's
- 1:18:50Speaker 5: no connection, and it's it's tough guys going in and out.
- 1:18:52Speaker 5: I get it, but I I just I just think that.
- 1:18:58Speaker 4: Pete, I'm not listen. We can have a debate about
- 1:19:00Speaker 4: the quarterback last there.
- 1:19:01Speaker 5: The kid has talent. I'm sorry, he has more talent
- 1:19:03Speaker 5: than when he gets But.
- 1:19:04Speaker 4: You are nuts. You are absolutely qrazy if you think
- 1:19:09Speaker 4: fire one coach is gonna fix everything.
- 1:19:12Speaker 5: It's not what I'm saying. I'm saying I think they're
- 1:19:15Speaker 5: holding him back.
- 1:19:16Speaker 4: You just said if you bring Ben Johnson and his offense,
- 1:19:19Speaker 4: they're gonna win.
- 1:19:21Speaker 5: You're not say they're gonna win. They're gonna make him better.
- 1:19:23Speaker 5: You're crazy, they're gonna make him well, then he can't
- 1:19:26Speaker 5: get better. Then it doesn't matter.
- 1:19:28Speaker 4: You have to look at the whole thing. Pete. This
- 1:19:30Speaker 4: is the problem with organizations. Do they said, oh, let's
- 1:19:33Speaker 4: just oh, it's this magic pill, let's take that one.
- 1:19:35Speaker 5: It's not what I'm saying.
- 1:19:36Speaker 4: That's what you just said.
- 1:19:38Speaker 5: I'm saying a guy like Ben Johnson or somebody with
- 1:19:40Speaker 5: an offensive mind like that who comes in and doesn't
- 1:19:43Speaker 5: doesn't run this offense. This offense is stagnant. It's it's predictable.
- 1:19:47Speaker 4: Last year, Pete, remember last year everyone said, we's gotta
- 1:19:51Speaker 4: fire the defense. Score again me deven scored, Everything will
- 1:19:53Speaker 4: be better.
- 1:19:56Speaker 5: Well, I mean remember that. Yeah, Well they fired one
- 1:19:58Speaker 5: bad one and got another bad one.
- 1:20:02Speaker 4: I must I'm not here to judge whether one's bad
- 1:20:06Speaker 4: or good. That's not my point in this argument. My
- 1:20:09Speaker 4: point is the mistake. I mean, too many made people
- 1:20:12Speaker 4: makes like, oh, just get rid of that guy, and
- 1:20:15Speaker 4: it's it's you gotta look at it.
- 1:20:17Speaker 5: I need to say one thing about getting rid of anybody.
- 1:20:19Speaker 5: All I'm saying, if they had a guy that was
- 1:20:21Speaker 5: he can't bring somebody out. He hadn't made him better.
- 1:20:25Speaker 5: He's not better. So it's one of two things. Either
- 1:20:28Speaker 5: they haven't made him better or he's not any good.
- 1:20:31Speaker 5: It can't be both.
- 1:20:34Speaker 2: That is keeping it real presented by Nobody, and we're
- 1:20:39Speaker 2: back with fanatics, fan questions. We'll get a few end
- 1:20:44Speaker 2: when we come back. It's Jaguars Happy Hour presented by
- 1:20:47Speaker 2: mister Chubby's Wings.
- 1:20:53Speaker 4: Welcome back.
- 1:20:53Speaker 2: It's Jaguars Happy Hour. Second Hour presented by Mister Chubby's Wings.
- 1:20:58Speaker 2: They had chicken wraps, traditional fried chicken wings and pretzel
- 1:21:03Speaker 2: bites tonight for our production staff.
- 1:21:06Speaker 4: Outstanding JP outstanding. I gotta jump in real quick. Yeah,
- 1:21:11Speaker 4: we ended it real quickly, so I know we're getting
- 1:21:15Speaker 4: to the fans and you got to read your read
- 1:21:18Speaker 4: My point, P was the mistake is because I'm not
- 1:21:22Speaker 4: advocating for firing anyone in that building. And that's not
- 1:21:25Speaker 4: my job. It's it's that's one man's job over there.
- 1:21:28Speaker 4: It's not mine. My point is, you got to look
- 1:21:31Speaker 4: at the whole thing, like, how about the fact that
- 1:21:37Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence's receivers have have had dropped the ball more
- 1:21:41Speaker 4: than any other receiving group, that any other quarterbacks dealt
- 1:21:44Speaker 4: with since he's been here.
- 1:21:46Speaker 2: Absolutely number one in the league.
- 1:21:48Speaker 4: Number one in the league. Okay, okay, So if you
- 1:21:54Speaker 4: cut those in half and they were in the middle
- 1:21:56Speaker 4: of the league, would his numbers be different.
- 1:21:59Speaker 5: I think he's a good player. I just think there's
- 1:22:02Speaker 5: you're blaming everything on the plate. I think there's more
- 1:22:05Speaker 5: to them.
- 1:22:05Speaker 4: I think there's the point. I think there's more to it.
- 1:22:10Speaker 4: I think you gotta look at everything.
- 1:22:12Speaker 5: Okay, but the guys are dropping past is what is that?
- 1:22:15Speaker 5: Is that coaching focused?
- 1:22:17Speaker 4: Wrong guys?
- 1:22:18Speaker 5: I don't know, jumping off sides and when you get
- 1:22:22Speaker 5: down in the red zone.
- 1:22:24Speaker 4: I'm not there every day.
- 1:22:25Speaker 5: I believe the coach is responsible for that. I'm not
- 1:22:28Speaker 5: saying fired everybody. I'm just saying I think they're holding
- 1:22:31Speaker 5: Trevor back. That's me.
- 1:22:33Speaker 4: I disagree with you from the standpoint until you are
- 1:22:36Speaker 4: understanding and look at everything. I don't know what it is.
- 1:22:38Speaker 4: I don't know if it's coaching. I'm not in the building.
- 1:22:40Speaker 4: I hear it. I mean I hear things, I'm not
- 1:22:42Speaker 4: in the building.
- 1:22:42Speaker 5: I don't know. I can ask you a legitimate question
- 1:22:46Speaker 5: of how many guys have gotten better and you can
- 1:22:47Speaker 5: come over a handful that that that begs that the
- 1:22:50Speaker 5: coaching is a problem.
- 1:22:51Speaker 4: I just gave you guys who got better.
- 1:22:53Speaker 5: Give me three and the whole team.
- 1:22:55Speaker 4: Josh Allen, he's gotten better, better, He's better than he
- 1:22:59Speaker 4: was a year ago pre dank physical, it's more physical.
- 1:23:02Speaker 4: They ask him the game weight. So is that the
- 1:23:04Speaker 4: defensive coordinator for asking the game weight? I don't know.
- 1:23:07Speaker 5: Maybe, So there you go. It goes back to the coaching. Look,
- 1:23:10Speaker 5: I'm not saying sitting here a wholesale change are gonna
- 1:23:12Speaker 5: fix it because they have a roster problem as well.
- 1:23:14Speaker 5: But I think when it relates to.
- 1:23:17Speaker 4: That's my point. You got to look at the whole thing,
- 1:23:19Speaker 4: and I'm not.
- 1:23:19Speaker 5: Looking at the whole thing. And as it relates to
- 1:23:21Speaker 5: the quarterback, I think he's being held back.
- 1:23:24Speaker 4: But why is he held back? Is it the poe?
- 1:23:26Speaker 4: Is it the roster? The coaching?
- 1:23:29Speaker 5: Let us go free for a little while, and then
- 1:23:31Speaker 5: if it told him back then I was wrong. Okay,
- 1:23:33Speaker 5: I'll tell you that right now.
- 1:23:34Speaker 4: Is it the culture? Is it him is?
- 1:23:36Speaker 5: By the way, this is not the week.
- 1:23:37Speaker 4: I don't know. My point is I get really frustrated
- 1:23:42Speaker 4: when everyone's like, oh, it's just Ben Ben Johnson, It'll
- 1:23:47Speaker 4: fix everything.
- 1:23:48Speaker 5: But well, first off, we don't know if Ben Johnson
- 1:23:50Speaker 5: can handle a room. We don't know that at point.
- 1:23:53Speaker 4: Bete, you're the one who said it.
- 1:23:57Speaker 5: Well, I think Ben Johnson's a bright star in the
- 1:24:00Speaker 5: coaching profession.
- 1:24:01Speaker 4: I listen. I think Ben Johnson is one of the
- 1:24:04Speaker 4: better offensive coordinators in football right now, and I think
- 1:24:07Speaker 4: he has the numbers that prove it. I think he's
- 1:24:09Speaker 4: in the right place with a great head coach. They've
- 1:24:12Speaker 4: built it the right way. They have a strong offensive line,
- 1:24:15Speaker 4: they have an identity, they know who they are, they
- 1:24:16Speaker 4: have two good backs. They don't ask their quarterback to
- 1:24:19Speaker 4: do a lot. It's play action pass. It's like, it's
- 1:24:22Speaker 4: all good. But it's built in a manner to fit
- 1:24:27Speaker 4: the way that they want to play. And they call
- 1:24:30Speaker 4: plays based on their personnel and what they got and
- 1:24:33Speaker 4: they it's designed that way. They picked players that way.
- 1:24:37Speaker 4: Like I'll give you per example, Pete, you and I
- 1:24:40Speaker 4: both would have said it when they picked Jamar.
- 1:24:42Speaker 2: Gibbs in the first round, Jamir.
- 1:24:44Speaker 4: Jamier's thank you, Melvin Kidd when they picked Jamir Gibbs.
- 1:24:49Speaker 4: I guarantee you both of us we weren't together and
- 1:24:52Speaker 4: both rolled our eyes. Going back in the first round,
- 1:24:54Speaker 4: you don't do that. Well, you know what, they got
- 1:24:59Speaker 4: a strong offensive line, They got two really good backs,
- 1:25:04Speaker 4: They have an okay receiving corps. They have a nice
- 1:25:06Speaker 4: tight end. They have a quarterback that got thrown out
- 1:25:09Speaker 4: of a city. But you know what, they play to
- 1:25:13Speaker 4: their identity. They run it. They're physical, they plack and
- 1:25:16Speaker 4: pass high high percentage, and they take shots at times
- 1:25:20Speaker 4: like but they pick guys.
- 1:25:24Speaker 5: They are But when Jamison Williams is on the field,
- 1:25:27Speaker 5: they have a guy who can stretch the field. They
- 1:25:29Speaker 5: have a tight end who can catch the ball, and
- 1:25:30Speaker 5: they have a guy who can work the intermediate routes
- 1:25:33Speaker 5: on the running game. I get it.
- 1:25:35Speaker 4: What they go do? They invest the offensive line, They
- 1:25:37Speaker 4: invested in backs.
- 1:25:38Speaker 5: Well, they drafted they also guess what, now, what's Jared
- 1:25:42Speaker 5: Goff talking?
- 1:25:43Speaker 4: They're talking about Jared Goff MVP candidate.
- 1:25:46Speaker 5: Well, they invested in the offensive line. They drafted Pinay
- 1:25:49Speaker 5: Seoul high in the first round. They already had Decker.
- 1:25:53Speaker 5: They already had Decker. They already had uh right now.
- 1:25:58Speaker 4: So they they got they win got Zeitler free agency.
- 1:26:02Speaker 5: Jacksonville could have got Zeitler for the same damn sandwich
- 1:26:04Speaker 5: that take out for him.
- 1:26:05Speaker 4: Pete, You're missing my point. You can't just look at
- 1:26:09Speaker 4: one thing. They made an decision. This is who we are,
- 1:26:13Speaker 4: this is how we're gonna play, and we're gonna build
- 1:26:16Speaker 4: it that way, right, So.
- 1:26:18Speaker 5: What's the decision at Jacksonville? How do you play it?
- 1:26:20Speaker 5: And what you just said before, there's no identity. There's
- 1:26:23Speaker 5: no identity.
- 1:26:24Speaker 4: First of all, you have to establish what you want
- 1:26:27Speaker 4: to be well.
- 1:26:28Speaker 5: And that goes to the coaching part of it, doesn't it.
- 1:26:31Speaker 4: I think it goes to the whole front office, coaching, GM,
- 1:26:35Speaker 4: all of them together.
- 1:26:35Speaker 9: You gotta be on the same page. And I'm not
- 1:26:37Speaker 9: by the way, I don't want anyone tweeting me or
- 1:26:41Speaker 9: say anything reading into it. I'm saying they're not. I'm
- 1:26:43Speaker 9: just saying the results aren't very good. That's all I'm saying.
- 1:26:47Speaker 4: And my response in my ti rade here is to
- 1:26:49Speaker 4: Pete who said they.
- 1:26:51Speaker 5: Just made it better bring Ben Johnson in, But they
- 1:26:54Speaker 5: haven't made a better Bring somebody in to make it better,
- 1:26:56Speaker 5: make it better. They haven't made it better. They have
- 1:26:58Speaker 5: the number one overall pick in the draft and They've
- 1:27:00Speaker 5: rendered him into something that he isn't, which is average,
- 1:27:03Speaker 5: and that's the problem.
- 1:27:05Speaker 2: His receivers lead the league and drops since he joined
- 1:27:07Speaker 2: the NFL.
- 1:27:08Speaker 5: Pete, the whole thing, Well, you should have got rid
- 1:27:10Speaker 5: of Keenan. I mean I got an answer for all
- 1:27:15Speaker 5: of them.
- 1:27:15Speaker 2: He's coming in next week.
- 1:27:16Speaker 4: By the way, Pete, I know you agree with me
- 1:27:20Speaker 4: what I'm saying, because like you've got it, you can't
- 1:27:23Speaker 4: just like I get so tired of it because guess what,
- 1:27:27Speaker 4: this is what everyone does. Let's go get the hot coordinator.
- 1:27:30Speaker 4: And Ben Johnson is dang good coordinator, but he's also
- 1:27:34Speaker 4: in a great situation with it.
- 1:27:39Speaker 5: I'm gonna go to another thing. Daniel steps into Washington
- 1:27:44Speaker 5: with Cliff Kingsbury, and their offensive line is a hodgepodge
- 1:27:48Speaker 5: of veterans. They signed because a lot of them are questionable,
- 1:27:51Speaker 5: good questionable one going in mclaurin's a good player. The
- 1:27:54Speaker 5: runnback's a good player, not any better than what Jacksonville has.
- 1:27:57Speaker 5: And yet they go in there because Kingsbury makes it
- 1:27:59Speaker 5: easy on the quarterback. The system. He quarterback's really good,
- 1:28:04Speaker 5: don't get me wrong, but he made.
- 1:28:05Speaker 4: It pretty good. Pe you know what else, he does.
- 1:28:08Speaker 4: He's in the building like a four point thirty every
- 1:28:10Speaker 4: morning doing studying and oculus and all this.
- 1:28:13Speaker 5: I mean, no, I love the kid, Don't get me wrong.
- 1:28:17Speaker 5: I thought he was the best quarterback in the draft class.
- 1:28:18Speaker 5: But but again, a coaching system, the whole thing can
- 1:28:22Speaker 5: make the quarterback better.
- 1:28:24Speaker 4: It's everything around it. It's the whole organization. It's who
- 1:28:29Speaker 4: you are, what your identity is.
- 1:28:31Speaker 5: It's typing better now than he was a year ago.
- 1:28:33Speaker 4: Yes or no, I can't say. I don't think so.
- 1:28:38Speaker 5: Then then there's a problem. I mean, he's either he's
- 1:28:42Speaker 5: not good, which I don't believe, or they're holding him back.
- 1:28:45Speaker 5: And I'm a big believer in that.
- 1:28:47Speaker 2: I guess let's come back. We've got to take this
- 1:28:48Speaker 2: time out. We'll come back with a fanatics fan question
- 1:28:51Speaker 2: or two. Maybe if we have time. We gotta get
- 1:28:54Speaker 2: around the league. We're gonna speed around the league. No
- 1:28:56Speaker 2: scenic route. Today, it's been a show. It's Jaguars Happy

- 1:29:29Speaker 2: put the cat signal out. Plenty of submissions today, we
- 1:29:32Speaker 2: only have time for two. This is that will do
- 1:29:35Speaker 2: forty four? Why do you think Strange played so few
- 1:29:37Speaker 2: snaps this week? Would have expected him to get targets
- 1:29:40Speaker 2: with us so thin at wide receiver, not everybody at once.
- 1:29:47Speaker 2: Oh hope you don't have Tony go ahead.
- 1:29:49Speaker 5: Tony, Tony go ahead?
- 1:29:50Speaker 4: I thought he go ahead, there you go. Yeah, I'm mute.
- 1:29:53Speaker 5: I was shocked, which would be that would be bad
- 1:29:56Speaker 5: if you were on that the whole show sometime, geez.
- 1:30:04Speaker 4: I was shocked by that because I thought they I
- 1:30:08Speaker 4: thought the best. If I was saying, okay, who's the
- 1:30:10Speaker 4: best group on the field for them, it would be
- 1:30:14Speaker 4: Brian Thomas Junior. But now he was beat up all week,
- 1:30:16Speaker 4: so who knows how much practice he could get any
- 1:30:18Speaker 4: And he's a rookie, so you got to be careful
- 1:30:20Speaker 4: if he's not practicing H Parker, Washington, Strange, and Evan
- 1:30:25Speaker 4: Ingram with either E Tan or I'm a big, big
- 1:30:30Speaker 4: Sbey fan, but he was beat up too, so but
- 1:30:31Speaker 4: either one of those, any of the backs, Like I
- 1:30:33Speaker 4: thought that was your best personnel grouping, that would put
- 1:30:36Speaker 4: them in a little bit of a bind of how
- 1:30:39Speaker 4: they matched up with Ingram because now they have to
- 1:30:42Speaker 4: decide do they go base personnel to stop the run
- 1:30:45Speaker 4: because you can run it out of twelve, or do
- 1:30:47Speaker 4: they go to nickel to match up with Ingram. I
- 1:30:51Speaker 4: thought we'd see a lot of that, and we did not.
- 1:30:55Speaker 5: Well, I mean Trammel played how many steps? He played
- 1:30:58Speaker 5: like thirty five? And I think Strange play nine.
- 1:31:00Speaker 4: I don't.
- 1:31:02Speaker 5: And this is nothing he has trouble because he actually
- 1:31:03Speaker 5: did some He ran some good routes. You know that
- 1:31:06Speaker 5: he did. He ran some good rounds. Can I why
- 1:31:08Speaker 5: we're on Trammel? Why in the hell was he returning punts?
- 1:31:12Speaker 5: Can I get that? Can I get that? Because Washington
- 1:31:15Speaker 5: was playing receivers?
- 1:31:18Speaker 4: So what so what Trammel ended up playing just as
- 1:31:21Speaker 4: bad as much receivers?
- 1:31:22Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 1:31:23Speaker 4: Right?
- 1:31:23Speaker 5: I mean you talk about a mistake. That's a mistake.
- 1:31:27Speaker 4: I disagreed with that decision.
- 1:31:29Speaker 2: Now, now it's not his first time returning punts, by
- 1:31:31Speaker 2: the way. I mean, he played in LA.
- 1:31:33Speaker 4: He's a great but he catches the ball very well.
- 1:31:38Speaker 4: So they were they were.
- 1:31:39Speaker 5: Very very well. And he dropped it very well too.
- 1:31:42Speaker 4: He didn't dry he got He caught it and started running.
- 1:31:45Speaker 2: Got hit.
- 1:31:45Speaker 4: First of all, he should have fair caught that ball.
- 1:31:48Speaker 5: Dropping it is when you fumble it. He fumbled it.
- 1:31:52Speaker 4: If you don't catch it clean. He caught it clean
- 1:31:55Speaker 4: and started running.
- 1:31:56Speaker 5: Okay, but why would you not have washed its back there?
- 1:32:01Speaker 5: I would have, particularly after he had one for a
- 1:32:04Speaker 5: touchdown a couple of weeks ago.
- 1:32:05Speaker 4: I would have Pete, you're missing my point.
- 1:32:08Speaker 5: Okay, Well what's the point? What's their point? What would
- 1:32:11Speaker 5: be that point?
- 1:32:12Speaker 4: They didn't want to because Parker was starting, They didn't
- 1:32:14Speaker 4: want to have him returned punts too. But if I'm
- 1:32:19Speaker 4: not mistaken, on the first play, wasn't Trammell out there
- 1:32:21Speaker 4: on the field on the first play of the game.
- 1:32:24Speaker 5: I think he was.
- 1:32:26Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:32:26Speaker 5: So so you're so one of your put the other
- 1:32:29Speaker 5: starting receiver off that you got him off the street
- 1:32:31Speaker 5: and put him over there, off the practice squad put
- 1:32:33Speaker 5: him over there. It makes no there's no reasoning behind that,
- 1:32:37Speaker 5: no testifying it. I'm sorry, there's no justifying it.
- 1:32:40Speaker 4: I'm not trying to.
- 1:32:41Speaker 5: I'm not talking about you.
- 1:32:42Speaker 2: Unless they saw something in the practice field we didn't see.
- 1:32:45Speaker 2: I don't know. Uh, let's get one more question and
- 1:32:47Speaker 2: then we got to go around the league at Jacob
- 1:32:49Speaker 2: Brighthart too, or slow starts being caused by poor execution
- 1:32:52Speaker 2: by the players, or a poor script by the play callerer,
- 1:32:57Speaker 2: or I'm gonna I'm.
- 1:32:58Speaker 4: Always gonna I give the players the credit and I'm
- 1:33:03Speaker 4: gonna take give them the blank. I think it's the
- 1:33:05Speaker 4: Jimmy's and Joe's not tax as well.
- 1:33:07Speaker 5: How about if I give him a ten places for
- 1:33:09Speaker 5: this week and see if it works.
- 1:33:11Speaker 4: I would love that. I would love it. The problem
- 1:33:17Speaker 4: is I don't. I would have a hard time rooting
- 1:33:20Speaker 4: against my Jaguars. But I want you to fail, so
- 1:33:22Speaker 4: I can.
- 1:33:23Speaker 2: I know you want to take some criticism next week.
- 1:33:26Speaker 2: That would be a way to do it.
- 1:33:28Speaker 5: I know one of those plays I put Brian, I
- 1:33:31Speaker 5: put Brian Thomas on a post corner route and get
- 1:33:33Speaker 5: him for about forty.
- 1:33:35Speaker 4: Okay, I'm listen. Bet you like to claim that you
- 1:33:40Speaker 4: could be an offensive coordinator.
- 1:33:42Speaker 5: I couldn't. I could not be. I'll be honest with you.
- 1:33:44Speaker 5: I could not be. I would never pretend to say
- 1:33:46Speaker 5: that I could be. But I know, just like I
- 1:33:48Speaker 5: could never direct a movie, but I know what looks
- 1:33:50Speaker 5: good on the big screen, and I know ways to
- 1:33:51Speaker 5: make it better.
- 1:33:53Speaker 4: I could get your run game for you. That's about it.
- 1:33:56Speaker 4: I could I get your protection a run game when
- 1:33:58Speaker 4: it comes to routes and coverages.
- 1:34:01Speaker 5: But just like little things, I couldn't. I wouldn't the
- 1:34:03Speaker 5: design of that play that they ran for daners Johnson.
- 1:34:06Speaker 5: I would have had it run a different way, just
- 1:34:08Speaker 5: just for the exact reasons I explained. That's all I'm saying.
- 1:34:12Speaker 2: All Right, fanatics, fan questions are in. We're done. We
- 1:34:15Speaker 2: got to touch around the league. We got like three
- 1:34:16Speaker 2: minutes left to go around the NFL.
- 1:34:18Speaker 5: Go fast, because you got to do your Monday night chorus.
- 1:34:20Speaker 2: Yeah, so you got two minutes basically. So what stands out,
- 1:34:23Speaker 2: Pete about around the league yesterday? What's the number one
- 1:34:25Speaker 2: thing that of all these games stood out to you
- 1:34:28Speaker 2: the most?
- 1:34:29Speaker 5: Well, I think the Cowboys are toast. I mean, that's
- 1:34:31Speaker 5: it's sad. But because you look at the Cowboys, you
- 1:34:34Speaker 5: think that they were going to make a little push
- 1:34:35Speaker 5: to win that division. They're done. They're finished. The Ravens
- 1:34:39Speaker 5: exposed the Broncos a little bit on Sunday, and the
- 1:34:43Speaker 5: Ravens are dynamic on offense. By the way, Todd Monkin
- 1:34:46Speaker 5: doing a hell of a job calling plays in Baltimore.
- 1:34:50Speaker 5: He's really adapted to what they do. And I think
- 1:34:53Speaker 5: Lamar Jackson's adapted to what he does. It's really working.
- 1:34:57Speaker 5: So that's a couple of things. Joe Flack starting, did
- 1:35:00Speaker 5: it work out? No, he did nothing. He did nothing.
- 1:35:04Speaker 5: Anthony Richards has not been good. But you make that move,
- 1:35:07Speaker 5: you got to get more than three points out of it.
- 1:35:09Speaker 4: Uh.
- 1:35:10Speaker 5: So that's just a couple of the things going on
- 1:35:11Speaker 5: around the league.
- 1:35:13Speaker 2: Tony, I would watch them.
- 1:35:16Speaker 4: The Jags, so I.
- 1:35:19Speaker 5: Mean, I can go round more I can give.
- 1:35:20Speaker 4: I watched, I didn't, I watched. I stayed in Philly
- 1:35:23Speaker 4: last night. I didn't go back with the team because
- 1:35:25Speaker 4: I had a meeting in uh I'd go to Chicago
- 1:35:27Speaker 4: this morning. I did watch the entire Sunday night game
- 1:35:32Speaker 4: as tired as I was. I did not see that
- 1:35:35Speaker 4: being a defensive battle. I mean the goal, the Colt's defense.
- 1:35:39Speaker 4: Give them credit. They scored seven and they played good things,
- 1:35:42Speaker 4: played tough.
- 1:35:43Speaker 5: But here, here's the other thing about that, Joe Flacco
- 1:35:46Speaker 5: had problems with a lot of those coverages, those dropping
- 1:35:48Speaker 5: out and everything. If he having problems with those, and
- 1:35:51Speaker 5: Jacksonville doesn't dictate tempo in that game, which is what
- 1:35:54Speaker 5: I think they should do, and they getting third and long,
- 1:35:56Speaker 5: that's gonna be a problem next week.
- 1:35:58Speaker 4: Well, it's not just third and long, second and long again.
- 1:36:01Speaker 4: They're gonna they do a lot of exotic stuff.
- 1:36:04Speaker 5: Yep.
- 1:36:05Speaker 2: Monday Night Football, Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- 1:36:08Speaker 2: at four and four head two arrowhead to face Patrick
- 1:36:11Speaker 2: Mahomes and the final undefeated team in the NFL, the
- 1:36:14Speaker 2: Kansas City Chiefs at seven to zero. Inclement weather in
- 1:36:17Speaker 2: the forecast in Kansas City. Who you got tonight?
- 1:36:21Speaker 4: Not gonna be close? No, no Godwin, no Evans, no
- 1:36:27Speaker 4: Mike Evans. Tough lads, really good tamp I mean a
- 1:36:31Speaker 4: really good Chiefs defense. I see this as a ten
- 1:36:35Speaker 4: plus point victory for the Chiefs.
- 1:36:37Speaker 5: I agree, and I think getting Hopkins. Why he might
- 1:36:39Speaker 5: not help every team, He's gonna help that team because
- 1:36:41Speaker 5: he knows how to sit down in zones and create
- 1:36:43Speaker 5: help Kelsey get open. So run defense tops in the league.
- 1:36:47Speaker 5: They're gonna shut down the Bucks run game. It's gonna
- 1:36:49Speaker 5: be ugly.
- 1:36:50Speaker 4: I feel bad because I think the Bucks were a
- 1:36:52Speaker 4: pretty interesting team when they got it.
- 1:36:54Speaker 5: Yeah, so they got hurt. They can't you know, they
- 1:36:57Speaker 5: can't keep up. Baker Mayfield as seven interceptions in the
- 1:36:59Speaker 5: last three games. He's throwing touchdown passes by turn it over.
- 1:37:02Speaker 2: You have it. You heard it here first. That's Monday
- 1:37:04Speaker 2: Night Football. We'll do it again next week after the
- 1:37:07Speaker 2: Vikings come to town. Gentlemen, have a great week.
- 1:37:11Speaker 4: You want to lock it?
- 1:37:12Speaker 5: No, there's not a chance in hell. I'm locking that Game's.
