Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: It is Thursday, July. This is Jaguar's happy hour. And
- 0:11Speaker 1: now a guy who treats adversity like a piece of
- 0:14Speaker 1: meat Jane Peace Shadrick. Uh is it medium? Rare? I
- 0:22Speaker 1: don't know. Welcome it Jaguar's happy hour. J P. Shadrick
- 0:26Speaker 1: from a home studio. Jeff Logaman from his home studio.
- 0:32Speaker 1: And with the power of technology, Jeff, you and I
- 0:35Speaker 1: can actually look each at each other over a video screen.
- 0:39Speaker 1: We're taking steps towards the season. What's up, lives? How
- 0:41Speaker 1: are you? It's kind of odd. I mean, here we are,
- 0:46Speaker 1: the end of July and me and you were having
- 0:48Speaker 1: this conversation a minute ago. Does it really feel like
- 0:50Speaker 1: football season? Doesn't feel like it's it's time to have
- 0:54Speaker 1: a mini camp? You know, I mean that's right now.
- 0:58Speaker 1: It is weird. I mean, obviously, it's been a year
- 1:01Speaker 1: like nothing else. And and typically you have so much
- 1:04Speaker 1: build up to the season to where you have, you know,
- 1:07Speaker 1: after the draft and free agency, then you have many
- 1:10Speaker 1: camps and voluntary workouts and then the players report, and
- 1:14Speaker 1: then when they report, there's cameras and fanfare and everything else. Well,
- 1:18Speaker 1: you kind of missed a big block of that. So
- 1:21Speaker 1: it almost feels like, you know, we're missing something, but
- 1:24Speaker 1: but here we are. And uh, it's a different year certainly,
- 1:28Speaker 1: and it's going to be a different year in a
- 1:29Speaker 1: lot of different ways. Well here from Doug Maron of course,
- 1:32Speaker 1: in this show recap his media availability. It was earlier
- 1:36Speaker 1: today the Doug Maroon Show coming up at five o'clock
- 1:38Speaker 1: today as well, so we'll hear straight from the head coach,
- 1:40Speaker 1: and he touched on this a little bit today. Two
- 1:42Speaker 1: logs is, you know, it doesn't feel like preseason. It
- 1:45Speaker 1: doesn't feel like any of that right now because there's
- 1:48Speaker 1: this ramp up time and then there's not a game
- 1:50Speaker 1: in two weeks, and so it's a totally different, almost
- 1:54Speaker 1: a collegiate type feel. And for Doug, he's been through
- 1:57Speaker 1: this on the college side before, where there's no freecy
- 2:00Speaker 1: eas and games, you got to figure out your roster
- 2:02Speaker 1: and you're too deep at that point. Obviously, it's a
- 2:05Speaker 1: different world here in the NFL. But he can refer
- 2:07Speaker 1: to some notes from the past, which is a good
- 2:09Speaker 1: thing for Doug. Yeah, but what notes are you referring
- 2:13Speaker 1: to when you're talking about managing a roster when you
- 2:16Speaker 1: have COVID nineteen affecting your entire roster and the way
- 2:19Speaker 1: you do business. I mean, look, there's nothing that you
- 2:22Speaker 1: can pull from your history that's gonna help you handle
- 2:24Speaker 1: this other than you have to sit there and try
- 2:27Speaker 1: to figure out every conceivable, every conceivable possibility that could
- 2:32Speaker 1: happen to your roster. And this year is very unique
- 2:36Speaker 1: in a lot of different ways. And that, first of all,
- 2:39Speaker 1: will the season happen without any kind of interruption? I
- 2:42Speaker 1: think that's gonna be very interesting to see if it
- 2:44Speaker 1: can happen. Number two is that now you have coaches
- 2:48Speaker 1: and general managers that are having to manage a completely
- 2:51Speaker 1: different thing than just the x is and the ohs
- 2:54Speaker 1: and the Jimmy's and the jos. I mean, now you're
- 2:56Speaker 1: talking about managing any roster in case, all sudden you
- 3:00Speaker 1: have an outbreak of COVID nineteen on your football team.
- 3:03Speaker 1: So now you have to make the decisions. How do
- 3:05Speaker 1: we handle our day to day business. How do we
- 3:07Speaker 1: conduct practice, How do we conduct meals, How do we
- 3:11Speaker 1: conduct meetings? How do we conduct practice? Do we isolate
- 3:15Speaker 1: a quarterback just in case we have a quarterback room
- 3:17Speaker 1: that comes down with COVID? I mean there's so many
- 3:20Speaker 1: different decisions, and there's no roadmap that you can refer
- 3:23Speaker 1: back to to figure out what's the best way to
- 3:24Speaker 1: go about it. But I will say this, the football
- 3:27Speaker 1: teams in the National Football League that are the best
- 3:30Speaker 1: managed are going to be the most successful in a
- 3:33Speaker 1: year like this. Here's what's coming up with the program today.
- 3:37Speaker 1: We'll recap that Doug Moron media availability, players reporting to
- 3:41Speaker 1: camp at least for testing. The veterans are not in
- 3:44Speaker 1: the building yet. The rookies are, though the ones who
- 3:46Speaker 1: have passed three COVID nineteen tests are allowed in the
- 3:51Speaker 1: next steps moving ahead over the next week's we'll discuss that.
- 3:54Speaker 1: Senior writer John O's your schedule to join us as well,
- 3:57Speaker 1: and about fifteen minutes will recap Doug Moron's press conference today.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Let's hear from the head coach logs. How about it?
- 4:03Speaker 1: You know, and you just touched on this, how different
- 4:07Speaker 1: the environment is? What is a normal day like? And
- 4:11Speaker 1: how does a normal day change? For head coach Doug Burrow.
- 4:15Speaker 1: There there are so many changes the rock that has
- 4:17Speaker 1: taken place as far as just your normal day, I
- 4:20Speaker 1: mean normal is out of the really really out of
- 4:23Speaker 1: the picture, you know, of the things that we're doing,
- 4:27Speaker 1: um as far as you know, coming in with the
- 4:28Speaker 1: testing procedures. UM. You know, arrows on the hallway, signs
- 4:32Speaker 1: on the hallway, UM, you know, split locker rooms, split
- 4:37Speaker 1: you know, weight rooms, different different areas, you know, just
- 4:40Speaker 1: to create that space. Now logs. I have not been
- 4:44Speaker 1: in the building, at least in the Jaguars part of
- 4:46Speaker 1: the building since March nineteen, so I haven't seen these
- 4:51Speaker 1: arrows and all these hallways. But it makes a lot
- 4:54Speaker 1: of sense. They have to do everything to the book,
- 4:56Speaker 1: and the book is big of what the league and
- 4:58Speaker 1: everybody's put together try to to make this social distancing possible.
- 5:03Speaker 1: In an NFL locker room, it's tough to do with
- 5:05Speaker 1: ninety guys around there. Well, well it is. Unfortunately, the
- 5:08Speaker 1: Jaguars have a facility that is the NFL Stadium, which
- 5:12Speaker 1: has multiple locker rooms, that has a lot of room
- 5:15Speaker 1: really to handle this type of situation. There's a lot
- 5:18Speaker 1: of football teams that don't have the upgraded facility, that
- 5:22Speaker 1: don't have the ability to say, hey, you know what,
- 5:24Speaker 1: let's go use the South locker room, and hey, guess what,
- 5:26Speaker 1: let's go use the locker room, the new locker room
- 5:29Speaker 1: that they built on the other side of the stadium.
- 5:30Speaker 1: So the Jaguars are fortunate in a lot of different
- 5:33Speaker 1: ways because of the facility that they are within, and
- 5:36Speaker 1: also they have the ability to go outside and utilize
- 5:39Speaker 1: the stadium seating area that's got a capacity of sixty
- 5:42Speaker 1: five plus thousand seats, and so you've got a lot
- 5:45Speaker 1: of flexibility there to where you can actually have a
- 5:47Speaker 1: meeting and still be able to abide by all the
- 5:51Speaker 1: different social distancing aspects of the requirements of the league.
- 5:54Speaker 1: Now you said you haven't seen all these things in
- 5:56Speaker 1: the hallway, JP, Just imagine what it's like at the
- 5:58Speaker 1: grocery store. You got one way signs, right, I mean,
- 6:01Speaker 1: going down aisles and then when you get to the
- 6:02Speaker 1: cash register and says stand here, staying here, staying here.
- 6:05Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think it's any different for the
- 6:08Speaker 1: NFL teams right now to where they have a lot
- 6:10Speaker 1: of guidelines just like that in place for them. Interesting stuff,
- 6:15Speaker 1: and you know, but everybody has to follow it to
- 6:18Speaker 1: a t. And that's this is a discussion we'll have
- 6:20Speaker 1: a little later too. That's inside the building. You can
- 6:23Speaker 1: control inside the building. The real question will be when
- 6:27Speaker 1: guys leave the building. Go home. That's really when this
- 6:31Speaker 1: thing will will turn one way or the other. He'll
- 6:34Speaker 1: see he again from Doug Broone. No preseason games this year,
- 6:38Speaker 1: that's the big change. The players Association and the league
- 6:41Speaker 1: came together on that. So how does that change his
- 6:44Speaker 1: preparation leading into the regular season. When I knew there
- 6:49Speaker 1: was talk about you know, um possibly not playing preceding games,
- 6:53Speaker 1: I wind up breaking out you know, the stuff that
- 6:55Speaker 1: I did in college and looked at it kind of
- 6:57Speaker 1: reminded myself of you know how, you know, how I've
- 7:00Speaker 1: done it, you know, personally before, and then you know,
- 7:03Speaker 1: I think it's for me, it's it's it's very easy
- 7:05Speaker 1: to manage, you know, and getting those situations, getting you know,
- 7:08Speaker 1: that type of experience, getting that type of you know,
- 7:13Speaker 1: live action, let's say, for lack of a better word,
- 7:16Speaker 1: Um So I think I'm I feel very comfortable as
- 7:19Speaker 1: far as that part. Look, how difficult is this, at
- 7:24Speaker 1: least from the organizational perspective to evaluate talent on the team.
- 7:29Speaker 1: We'll hear from the players side in a moment, But
- 7:31Speaker 1: in terms of selecting guys on this roster, how difficult
- 7:35Speaker 1: is it to to see anything when you can't play games. Well,
- 7:39Speaker 1: I think it's interesting that Doug says that, hey, look,
- 7:41Speaker 1: he's very comfortable with what what he's gonna be able
- 7:44Speaker 1: to do. I had a hard time understanding how comfortable
- 7:47Speaker 1: he is. I think he's just saying that because he
- 7:50Speaker 1: doesn't want his team to realize that this is very different,
- 7:54Speaker 1: and he doesn't want them to think that this is
- 7:56Speaker 1: anything but the best way for any but any football team.
- 7:59Speaker 1: I think the reality is that, look, if you knew
- 8:01Speaker 1: you weren't going to have preseason games, fine, now we
- 8:05Speaker 1: can go ahead and we can ramp up the practices.
- 8:07Speaker 1: We can go to semi live contact and practice. But
- 8:11Speaker 1: here's the reality. You have this whole ramp up period
- 8:14Speaker 1: that's taken away from the total amount of time that
- 8:16Speaker 1: you have the players on the field four and the
- 8:18Speaker 1: amount of padded practices that you're gonna have. So here's
- 8:21Speaker 1: the thing. How are you going to find a replacement
- 8:24Speaker 1: for four games? You can't. You can't. So you're gonna
- 8:28Speaker 1: have to make a lot of personnel decisions about your
- 8:31Speaker 1: football team based on faith. I mean, that's the reality,
- 8:35Speaker 1: and based on very little sample size of what you
- 8:39Speaker 1: have from the players on your roster. That's the reality,
- 8:42Speaker 1: and that's certainly a big change from in years past.
- 8:45Speaker 1: And there's been a lot of talk about how the
- 8:48Speaker 1: undrafted guys in NFL history have had that opportunity and
- 8:52Speaker 1: in the preseason has afforded them that opportunity of getting
- 8:56Speaker 1: more exposure. I don't think there's any doubt that that's
- 8:59Speaker 1: a reality. There's gonna be a lot of players that
- 9:01Speaker 1: slipped through the cracks. But the one thing that you
- 9:04Speaker 1: do have this year is that you do have the
- 9:06Speaker 1: expanded roster with the practice squad, and I think that
- 9:08Speaker 1: will help a little bit. Now, it may it may
- 9:11Speaker 1: take some time to unearth some of those gems, but
- 9:14Speaker 1: I think you'll still be able to find them because
- 9:17Speaker 1: of the practice squad and a little bit of expanded
- 9:19Speaker 1: roster there. In also because if you've got a guy
- 9:22Speaker 1: that goes on the COVID nineteen list, okay, you can
- 9:24Speaker 1: replace them on the active roster and still have a
- 9:26Speaker 1: guy on the practice squad. For this organization, it might
- 9:30Speaker 1: be a little more challenging than most of very young
- 9:32Speaker 1: team twelve draft picks eighteen undrafted players currently on the roster,
- 9:37Speaker 1: and for Doug Morone, as you just touched on logs,
- 9:40Speaker 1: Doug today earlier knows the challenge for young players to
- 9:44Speaker 1: make not just this team, but any team this year.
- 9:47Speaker 1: This is probably, um, probably gonna be one of the
- 9:51Speaker 1: more challenging times for a young player, uh, to make
- 9:54Speaker 1: a football team. You know, one is because of opportunities.
- 9:58Speaker 1: The other is gonna be you know, a young football player,
- 10:02Speaker 1: um that may you know, you may have some better
- 10:04Speaker 1: players ahead of him, but not be able to play
- 10:08Speaker 1: preseason games, to get on film to you know, maybe
- 10:10Speaker 1: get picked up by another team. Yeah, it changes everything.
- 10:15Speaker 1: We've just touched on it. The addition of some spots
- 10:18Speaker 1: in the practice squad helps you a little bit in
- 10:21Speaker 1: this case. But man, this is not ideal. It's certainly
- 10:25Speaker 1: not ideal for anybody in the league. And if you're
- 10:27Speaker 1: an undrafted rookie that's on the bubble to begin with
- 10:30Speaker 1: before games start, then you may not even make it
- 10:34Speaker 1: to the cutdown in weeks. Look when you're when you're
- 10:37Speaker 1: an undrafted rookie, you're already on the bubble. I mean
- 10:40Speaker 1: you're not gonna you know, maybe be on the bubble.
- 10:42Speaker 1: You are on the bubble bubble when you walk in
- 10:44Speaker 1: the door. And the reality is this jiguars football team
- 10:47Speaker 1: is incredibly young, and they're going to be evaluating a
- 10:51Speaker 1: lot of incredibly young players, and I think it would
- 10:55Speaker 1: make a big difference if you're talking about a veteran
- 10:57Speaker 1: football team like the Kansas City They've got veterans across
- 11:01Speaker 1: the board, but you're talking about a totally different animal
- 11:04Speaker 1: with his Jaguars football team, and other teams that are
- 11:07Speaker 1: very similar to the Jaguars that are in a rebuilding
- 11:09Speaker 1: mode and they have committed to youth, You're gonna make
- 11:11Speaker 1: a lot of decisions based on very little sample side.
- 11:14Speaker 1: I think the teams that are going to be more
- 11:16Speaker 1: set up I think for this year to have success
- 11:19Speaker 1: or one that have had stability within the organization and
- 11:23Speaker 1: have a veteran presence in their locker room, the guys
- 11:26Speaker 1: that have been there and done that. When you have
- 11:28Speaker 1: a roster that there's a lot of guys that haven't
- 11:30Speaker 1: been there and done that, a lot of decisions are
- 11:33Speaker 1: gonna have to be made based on faith, and a
- 11:35Speaker 1: lot of those decisions aren't going to be the right
- 11:37Speaker 1: ones just because you don't have enough evidence or visual
- 11:42Speaker 1: evidence to confirm or deny whatever you are expecting to
- 11:46Speaker 1: see how a certain player so that's just the reality
- 11:49Speaker 1: with young teams. You're gonna make you You're gonna make mistakes,
- 11:52Speaker 1: especially in a year like this year. The full conversation

- 17:13Speaker 1: to see you. Oh and glad you're along with us here,
- 17:16Speaker 1: you know. By the way, before we get into the
- 17:17Speaker 1: jaguar stuff, there's a little breaking news in college football.
- 17:21Speaker 1: The Ross Ellinger from Sports Illustrated is just sweeted and
- 17:25Speaker 1: said that Southeastern Conference presidents have adopted a plan to
- 17:28Speaker 1: play a ten game conference only scheduled this fall. The
- 17:32Speaker 1: kickoff date would be September. The SEC championship game would
- 17:36Speaker 1: be December nineteen. That just came down during the commercial
- 17:39Speaker 1: time out, So that's one sport off to the side,
- 17:43Speaker 1: you know. And John, we talked about this a little
- 17:45Speaker 1: bit this morning. The way different sports are handling this pandemic. Um,
- 17:50Speaker 1: NBA has the bubble, NHL has two different bubbles. Uh, NFL,
- 17:55Speaker 1: Major League Baseball do not college football as of right now.
- 17:59Speaker 1: It's they're trying to fig was gonna play or not
- 18:01Speaker 1: some of these leagues. Um, you know, the the that's
- 18:06Speaker 1: the challenge of this NFL thing, that the amount of
- 18:08Speaker 1: people involved in the amount of people coming and going
- 18:10Speaker 1: from buildings. John is tough. Yeah, I'd probably be more
- 18:14Speaker 1: curious Jeff as a former player, uh, how he would
- 18:19Speaker 1: feel about just the logistics of it, because he's been
- 18:22Speaker 1: more inside of it than I have since life. You know,
- 18:25Speaker 1: haven't been around the league for twenty five years. The
- 18:28Speaker 1: thought of trying to get like during training camp, you've
- 18:30Speaker 1: got a hundred and fifty semi people that you are
- 18:33Speaker 1: trying to move around, and it's probably you know, you're
- 18:39Speaker 1: the best correlation is trying to it is the military correlation.
- 18:43Speaker 1: You're trying to move people impacts and they're trying to
- 18:47Speaker 1: do with social distance. But there's just so many people
- 18:50Speaker 1: that you've got to get involved with it, you know.
- 18:53Speaker 1: I get when fans who are outside of it say, well,
- 18:55Speaker 1: they should just do the bubble, because that's the best
- 18:58Speaker 1: way to do it. Look at baseball, look at basketball.
- 19:01Speaker 1: But with those sports, you're talking about short periods of
- 19:04Speaker 1: time comparatively, maybe four or five weeks for most teams, Jeff,
- 19:09Speaker 1: to try to do it over a five month period
- 19:13Speaker 1: with the logistics of the NFL, I get that, maybe
- 19:16Speaker 1: you could try it, but it just seems like a
- 19:18Speaker 1: Garganelan lift. Well, it's a it's a Gargangelan task, and
- 19:23Speaker 1: on top of that, you can control them, you know,
- 19:26Speaker 1: while they're in your little bubble. But then once you
- 19:29Speaker 1: get done with that little bubble at five o'clock during
- 19:31Speaker 1: the regular season, everybody's going their different ways, you know,
- 19:34Speaker 1: So how do you factor that into the equation because
- 19:38Speaker 1: that becomes a whole another task to try to manage
- 19:41Speaker 1: that you can't manage. And uh so, I think it's
- 19:45Speaker 1: gonna be an incredibly challenging year. You look at what
- 19:48Speaker 1: happened with the Miami Marlins this week and then also
- 19:51Speaker 1: with the Philadelphia Phillies, and I know Joe, our producer,
- 19:54Speaker 1: is probably sitting there going yeah, yeah, exactly exactly. But
- 19:58Speaker 1: when they had the outbreak coming all of a sudden,
- 20:00Speaker 1: I mean, Marlins are shut down. Well, and in baseball,
- 20:02Speaker 1: if you get shut down for a little bit, you
- 20:04Speaker 1: can't make it up somewhere along the way and play
- 20:06Speaker 1: a double or a triple header somewhere. Look, in football,
- 20:09Speaker 1: you can't do that. I mean, you can't say, Okay,
- 20:12Speaker 1: well we gotta cancel this weekend's game. We'll make that
- 20:14Speaker 1: game up next Wednesday, and then we'll go ahead and
- 20:17Speaker 1: play the following Sunday. Doesn't work that way. So incredibly
- 20:20Speaker 1: challenge challenging a year for the NFL. Hey, John, Obviously,
- 20:26Speaker 1: Doug Marone spoke earlier today. That's you, John, Yes, um.
- 20:29Speaker 1: It was his first media availability of the preseason training
- 20:33Speaker 1: camp leading up ramp up period whatever we're officially calling
- 20:36Speaker 1: this time period right now, we'll call it the ramp
- 20:39Speaker 1: up period. First time we've heard from him. Uh and
- 20:42Speaker 1: and long as you and I were talking about it earlier, John,
- 20:44Speaker 1: I'm curious your thoughts on this too. Doesn't really feel
- 20:48Speaker 1: like football yet. Today might have been the first time,
- 20:51Speaker 1: but just seeing Doug on a on a computer screen
- 20:55Speaker 1: makes it kind of feel Oh, we're still in the
- 20:58Speaker 1: offseason program a little bits. It's an odd feeling. Yeah,
- 21:02Speaker 1: I sort of realized today, and I guess and I
- 21:04Speaker 1: thought about it more I realized before. To me, it
- 21:07Speaker 1: doesn't really feel like football until your shirts wet after practice,
- 21:13Speaker 1: until you're just standing out there and you're soaking through
- 21:16Speaker 1: and I'm walking up to Jeff and we're both kind
- 21:18Speaker 1: of looking at each other and go, hey, here we
- 21:20Speaker 1: go again. Yeah, that's really the first day that it's
- 21:22Speaker 1: gonna feel real when we're on the field and camp. Frankly,
- 21:26Speaker 1: because when you've been around it as long as I haven't,
- 21:29Speaker 1: as long as Jeff has a more intimate capacity, your
- 21:33Speaker 1: body clock tells you that right now it's time to
- 21:36Speaker 1: walk out on that field and have my goofy hat
- 21:39Speaker 1: on and be doing that. So I don't think you'll
- 21:41Speaker 1: really feel it until that happens. But Jeff, I've looked
- 21:44Speaker 1: at this all along, saying this is a combination of O,
- 21:48Speaker 1: T A S for two weeks and then all of
- 21:51Speaker 1: a sudden, bam, you're into training camp. So I do
- 21:53Speaker 1: think we'll feel it in what two and a half
- 21:55Speaker 1: three weeks on August seventeen. Well maybe, And I can
- 21:59Speaker 1: tell you another reason why it doesn't feel like training
- 22:02Speaker 1: camp or feel like the season approach. And I'm looking
- 22:04Speaker 1: to John Osha with a beer, I mean, what the
- 22:07Speaker 1: hell is going on? I mean, did did me and
- 22:12Speaker 1: you and Doug Ron all kind of coordinate our facial
- 22:15Speaker 1: growth or what in the all season? But if you're
- 22:17Speaker 1: the beard of your question you, I'll never match you.
- 22:23Speaker 1: This is just my little effort. I like it. I
- 22:26Speaker 1: like it, But I mean JP and I were talking earlier, John,
- 22:29Speaker 1: and you know, you always have that build up to
- 22:31Speaker 1: a season, you know, after the draft, and then you
- 22:34Speaker 1: have the mandatory mini camp and you have O. T
- 22:37Speaker 1: A S. And when the guys report. You know, there's
- 22:40Speaker 1: all these steps that get you to where you're gonna
- 22:44Speaker 1: be at and where we're at now, but we've we've
- 22:47Speaker 1: missed all those steps, and then we're gonna be missing
- 22:49Speaker 1: more steps, you know, those steps of having media coverage
- 22:53Speaker 1: of practice for two weeks and then all of a sudden,
- 22:56Speaker 1: maybe even have a scrimmage mixed in there, or inter
- 22:58Speaker 1: squad practice with another football team that's not happening. Preseason
- 23:02Speaker 1: games not happening. So when when you don't have all
- 23:07Speaker 1: the build up, my question is where will the interest
- 23:12Speaker 1: in the NFL be this year, because you're missing a
- 23:15Speaker 1: lot of that build up to a season that typically
- 23:18Speaker 1: you have. And and I don't want to compare this
- 23:21Speaker 1: to a rating system, but but I would just throw
- 23:24Speaker 1: this out there. You know, in television, they have ratings
- 23:26Speaker 1: for television shows, and and if you have a time slot,
- 23:29Speaker 1: you love to have a great what they call lead in,
- 23:31Speaker 1: which means you don't like to have something with strong
- 23:33Speaker 1: numbers going into your show or into your time slot.
- 23:36Speaker 1: Well that's kind of like the build up of an
- 23:38Speaker 1: NFL season, and all of that is going to be missing.
- 23:41Speaker 1: So will you lose some fans because of that? Or
- 23:45Speaker 1: will you gain more just because people are looking for
- 23:48Speaker 1: an outlet to just to just not think about everything
- 23:52Speaker 1: that's going on in the world today and just want
- 23:55Speaker 1: to watch sports and want to watch competition. And my
- 23:59Speaker 1: guess is it's I think you're gonna lose some because
- 24:03Speaker 1: of what you said, because there's so many people thinking
- 24:05Speaker 1: about other things right now, concerned about other things. But
- 24:08Speaker 1: I do think I think the NBA will see it.
- 24:10Speaker 1: I think Baseball is seeing it a little bit. I've
- 24:13Speaker 1: talked to people in the Ozone mailbag who said they're
- 24:16Speaker 1: watching baseball for the first time in a long time
- 24:19Speaker 1: out of something to watch well as popular as the
- 24:21Speaker 1: NFL as, I can't believe they won't have that bump.
- 24:24Speaker 1: Will it be an overall bump? I don't know, but
- 24:27Speaker 1: I would expect that first week of the regular season,
- 24:29Speaker 1: as hungry as people have been for this UH, to
- 24:33Speaker 1: be very well watched. Jeff, My question is, and you,
- 24:36Speaker 1: as a former player, I've often ask you things along
- 24:38Speaker 1: these lines, where do you think that we're going to
- 24:42Speaker 1: see the biggest evidence that there was no offseason, that
- 24:47Speaker 1: there was no training and then we're no preseason games.
- 24:50Speaker 1: Are we making that up or will we see something
- 24:52Speaker 1: tangible to be evidence of that. I think it's gonna
- 24:55Speaker 1: be hard to an untrained I to say, oh boy,
- 24:58Speaker 1: you can really tell that they didn't have all I
- 25:00Speaker 1: think there's gonna be a lot of inefficiencies with both
- 25:03Speaker 1: offenses and defenses. But here's a reality when everybody is
- 25:07Speaker 1: on the same playing field, so and everybody's had the
- 25:10Speaker 1: same all season to deal with They've had the same
- 25:12Speaker 1: I'm in a preseason, they've had the same limited number
- 25:15Speaker 1: of practices. It's gonna be very hard to see. Now,
- 25:18Speaker 1: if you had one team that had so many different
- 25:21Speaker 1: limitations and other teams that didn't have any limitations, you'd
- 25:24Speaker 1: see a huge disparity. I don't think we're gonna see
- 25:27Speaker 1: a lot of disparity, But if you watch the timing
- 25:30Speaker 1: of all offenses, in the efficiency of offenses, I think
- 25:34Speaker 1: that's gonna be probably the biggest indicator. And the biggest
- 25:38Speaker 1: tell is the first year coordinators thing. More than anything,
- 25:44Speaker 1: John run all the money. You got a first year
- 25:46Speaker 1: coordinator in the first year starting quarterback with a very
- 25:50Speaker 1: young offense and obviously we're talking about Gardner, Minshew and
- 25:53Speaker 1: and Gruden and the Jaguars offense. I mean, a huge
- 25:56Speaker 1: disadvantage in the National Football League this year with that
- 26:00Speaker 1: type of situation to deal with. Johnny, Oh, you're writing

- 27:18Speaker 1: much gray and I'm actually thinking about using just for
- 27:21Speaker 1: men come in a little bit of color. What do
- 27:24Speaker 1: you think? I don't think Remember remember the show Home Improvement?

- 31:47Speaker 1: that's the opening of a new segment we're gonna debut
- 31:50Speaker 1: on this program. Real dramatic intro to buy or sell logs.
- 31:56Speaker 1: This is how it's gonna work. Hold on, I got
- 31:58Speaker 1: a question, Yeah, where does that music come from? You
- 32:04Speaker 1: know where that music? I know, I know where it
- 32:06Speaker 1: comes from as far as the guy that found it.
- 32:09Speaker 1: But I need a little help here and understanding exactly
- 32:12Speaker 1: what it is because I I've never heard that before
- 32:15Speaker 1: and it's very odd the music. I have no idea.
- 32:18Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't I have never heard that
- 32:20Speaker 1: song before in my life. I mean, you know, I'm
- 32:22Speaker 1: a little younger than you and the person who makes
- 32:25Speaker 1: that decision, Joe, but I'm a lot younger in facts.
- 32:30Speaker 1: Joe's got to text me and let me know where
- 32:32Speaker 1: that song comes from. The origin of that song. I
- 32:35Speaker 1: gotta know because everything he does musically is for a
- 32:38Speaker 1: reason because the name of the song is buy or Sell.
- 32:41Speaker 1: I think basically that's it. I typed in buy or
- 32:44Speaker 1: sell it, and that's what came up. So you just
- 32:47Speaker 1: you just google it. Uh, okay, all right, at least
- 32:56Speaker 1: it was clean. If it wasn't. After we get off
- 32:59Speaker 1: the show. Here, after I get done, listen to the
- 33:01Speaker 1: the Ozone podcast, I'm gonna I'm gonna google that. I'm
- 33:05Speaker 1: gonna google buy Yourselves. There you have it, and that's
- 33:08Speaker 1: what will come up. Apparently, here's how the game works.
- 33:11Speaker 1: The first rule is there are no rules. We're just
- 33:13Speaker 1: kind of going through it the first time. But I'll
- 33:15Speaker 1: say a topic, logs are either gonna buy or sell
- 33:20Speaker 1: and explain your reasoning behind it. And I'll do the
- 33:23Speaker 1: same thing about that. Number one, The season will start
- 33:28Speaker 1: as scheduled Buy Yourself by Yeah, I don't think there's
- 33:34Speaker 1: any doubt, but it will start as scheduled because I
- 33:37Speaker 1: think leading up to the season there's gonna be a
- 33:40Speaker 1: lot of precaution made. The teams aren't traveling. Uh, it's
- 33:44Speaker 1: it's the most controlled environment the teams can have all
- 33:48Speaker 1: season long. And I think if there was ever a
- 33:50Speaker 1: week the game we're gonna be playing it would be
- 33:52Speaker 1: opening day? Where should I say kickoff weekend? So I'm
- 33:56Speaker 1: with you on the bye for that point. I think
- 33:59Speaker 1: they'll everything in their power to get to week one.
- 34:03Speaker 1: After that, who knows, you know, things can change in
- 34:06Speaker 1: a hurry. They've worked the schedule or weeks two and
- 34:09Speaker 1: weeks three can can be moved if they need to
- 34:12Speaker 1: and not affect the conference in the division races. So
- 34:15Speaker 1: um by on starting as scheduled. If you if I
- 34:19Speaker 1: were to ask, you know, the rest of the season unscheduled,
- 34:21Speaker 1: I would sell right now. Next one. This is a
- 34:25Speaker 1: pretty good one, and he can got way will be
- 34:27Speaker 1: on the field for the Jaguars week one by or sell,
- 34:32Speaker 1: I'm selling. I don't think it's gonna happen. I think
- 34:35Speaker 1: that they've had holy Cow seven months to try to
- 34:41Speaker 1: come to some type of agreement. It hasn't happened. I
- 34:44Speaker 1: don't think that that agreement is going to happen anytime soon.
- 34:47Speaker 1: I think at some point there's gonna be enough of
- 34:50Speaker 1: a trade offer to make it. You're worth your while
- 34:52Speaker 1: as a as the Jaguars organization to go ahead and
- 34:56Speaker 1: just move on. Yeah, I'm a sell as well. And
- 35:00Speaker 1: that's the trick. He might be on the field week
- 35:02Speaker 1: one if a deal gets done before the season, and
- 35:06Speaker 1: he would be on the field somewhere else in a
- 35:08Speaker 1: week one, but not for the Jaguars. But it would
- 35:10Speaker 1: take who knows what it would take. It would take
- 35:12Speaker 1: whatever more than they've already been offered, which apparently they've
- 35:16Speaker 1: had a couple of opportunities. Well, let me let me
- 35:18Speaker 1: add this to JP if if there are no other options,
- 35:22Speaker 1: are you unique and Gockway, it's either play for the
- 35:25Speaker 1: Jaguars or don't don't get a check. I'm buying that
- 35:29Speaker 1: he's gonna show up, Okay, I mean, because here's the deal.
- 35:33Speaker 1: But when are you gonna week one? Well, I don't know.
- 35:37Speaker 1: I don't know the answer to that, but I don't
- 35:39Speaker 1: worry about in Gockway. As far as being in shape
- 35:41Speaker 1: and ready to play football game. He proved it last
- 35:44Speaker 1: year that he came in he was ready to go
- 35:46Speaker 1: right away. But you're not gonna bypass millions of dollars, okay,
- 35:52Speaker 1: and another opportunity to get another significant jump at millions
- 35:57Speaker 1: of dollars or a chance to get the free agency
- 36:00Speaker 1: possibly again. So um, it's not like Aquay is gonna
- 36:05Speaker 1: opt out, you know, and take a hundred fifty grand,
- 36:08Speaker 1: or he's just gonna say, you know what, I'm not
- 36:10Speaker 1: gonna play for the Jaguars because I'm too burnt about it. Look,
- 36:16Speaker 1: money is going to override this situation. If the Jaguars
- 36:19Speaker 1: get enough, I think they're gonna trade him. And I
- 36:21Speaker 1: think at some point you you'll probably get enough to
- 36:23Speaker 1: where you just say, let's just move on as an organization,
- 36:26Speaker 1: because you just don't want that. And I'm not saying
- 36:28Speaker 1: that Angoquay is a dark cloud, but it's just it's
- 36:30Speaker 1: a cloud. Nonetheless, that's it's kind of hanging over your
- 36:34Speaker 1: head as an organization. And then where you're young and
- 36:37Speaker 1: you're rebuilding, you don't need that. I mean, you just
- 36:39Speaker 1: need to put the blinders on and move forward, especially
- 36:41Speaker 1: in a year like this. Our next topic, C J.
- 36:46Speaker 1: Henderson will be the Jaguars Rookie of the Year and
- 36:50Speaker 1: Logs I'll go first to this one. I'm buying this one,
- 36:53Speaker 1: and here's some of the reasoning why behind it. Cale
- 36:56Speaker 1: and Chason is obviously a rookie is ll but there's
- 37:01Speaker 1: a lot of grown men in the trenches. You have
- 37:03Speaker 1: to kind of learn how to play. It takes a
- 37:04Speaker 1: little longer. You can speak to this a little bit
- 37:06Speaker 1: more once uh, we get to that point. Rookie wide
- 37:10Speaker 1: receivers have a tough go of it. I think it
- 37:12Speaker 1: takes them a little time overall to get things going.
- 37:16Speaker 1: So Leaviscas should not might take a little longer to
- 37:18Speaker 1: really develop. Hopefully not. Maybe uh he steps in and
- 37:22Speaker 1: plays well right away. C J. Henderson is a top
- 37:25Speaker 1: ten cornerback and he's gonna start right away, and he'll
- 37:29Speaker 1: have some bumps in the road, but I think he'll
- 37:31Speaker 1: have the opportunity to make the most impact right out
- 37:34Speaker 1: of the gate. That's why I'm buying that he's the
- 37:36Speaker 1: Jaguars rookie of the years. Okay, well, here's the deal.
- 37:42Speaker 1: He's your first round pick on a top ten pick.
- 37:45Speaker 1: He should be. Yeah, I mean, I mean, if not,
- 37:49Speaker 1: then what are we doing? But but here's an interesting
- 37:52Speaker 1: here's an interesting way too to ask a different question.
- 37:57Speaker 1: Would you take c J or the field? Oh? Oh,
- 38:03Speaker 1: that's the tough one. But I think I'm still taking
- 38:06Speaker 1: c J. See for me, because there's another first round
- 38:08Speaker 1: pick in the mix I would take. I would take
- 38:11Speaker 1: the field now it's and that's not a criticism of
- 38:15Speaker 1: c J at all. Right, is it is it more
- 38:19Speaker 1: difficult to break in as a rookie as a defensive
- 38:23Speaker 1: laeman edge rusher or as a cornerback in your opinion, Well,
- 38:28Speaker 1: a quarnerback gets exposed more, they're more on an island.
- 38:31Speaker 1: It's I think it's easier to hide an edge rusher,
- 38:35Speaker 1: especially when you've got some other players that are pretty
- 38:37Speaker 1: good and also situationally you can play an edge rusher.
- 38:41Speaker 1: And so I think it would probably be easier to
- 38:45Speaker 1: adapt the National Football League right out of the gate
- 38:47Speaker 1: as an edge rusher. I'm not saying the numbers would
- 38:50Speaker 1: be there, um, but it's a it's a pretty good
- 38:54Speaker 1: it's a pretty good grum amount of growth required to
- 38:56Speaker 1: play corner National Football League. And a here's thing, if
- 39:00Speaker 1: they play the way they played in the past, where
- 39:03Speaker 1: they're leaving their corners on an island. So if Henderson
- 39:07Speaker 1: is all sudden out there and playing like Jalen Ramsey, who, yeah,
- 39:13Speaker 1: that's a big ask JP, it is, but he was
- 39:17Speaker 1: a big draft pick to ten. Corners are expected to
- 39:20Speaker 1: do certain things and that's one of them. Right, is
- 39:23Speaker 1: to stand there's no doubt and from everything that his
- 39:28Speaker 1: coaches in college said, from the numbers that he put
- 39:31Speaker 1: up the combine, I mean, this guy is incredibly talented.
- 39:35Speaker 1: And uh, the biggest thing I think that you always
- 39:37Speaker 1: worry about it. And I'm not talking about C. G.
- 39:39Speaker 1: Henderson in particular. I'm talking about any any first round
- 39:42Speaker 1: pick or any rookie that we talk about is what's
- 39:45Speaker 1: the mental makeup. And when you're talking about cornerback, the
- 39:48Speaker 1: mental makeup has to be incredibly strong because you have
- 39:51Speaker 1: to have a short memory, you have to be extremely confident,
- 39:55Speaker 1: and I don't want to say borderline arrogant, but you've
- 39:57Speaker 1: got to be close, you know, and you've got to
- 39:59Speaker 1: be a kind of little bit of edgy edginess to you,
- 40:02Speaker 1: you know. So it takes a unique type of person
- 40:04Speaker 1: to be able to handle playing cornerback in the National
- 40:07Speaker 1: Football League. So I've got you down as a cell
- 40:11Speaker 1: on C. J. Henders, I'm gonna take the field. I'm
- 40:15Speaker 1: fair enough. No judgment here, there's no winner, there's no loser.
- 40:18Speaker 1: We're you know, we're just we're throwing it around here.
- 40:21Speaker 1: The next one, Leonard four Nets will be the offensive
- 40:24Speaker 1: m v P of the Jaguars by our sell us. Again,
- 40:29Speaker 1: that's kind of one of those questions, are you taking him?
- 40:31Speaker 1: Are you taking the field? Well, that's not the question.
- 40:33Speaker 1: That's not what I asked. Well, it's it's it's the
- 40:36Speaker 1: same thing. And here's the thing. If I'm buying, that
- 40:39Speaker 1: means I think for NET is going to be the
- 40:40Speaker 1: m v P. If I'm selling anybody else, I mean,
- 40:44Speaker 1: so it's the same question you're taking for NET. Are
- 40:46Speaker 1: you taking the field for me? Um, I'm gonna, I'm
- 40:52Speaker 1: gonna take the field JP. I'm selling. I'm gonna. I'm
- 40:55Speaker 1: gonna sell there because I think that I think we're
- 40:57Speaker 1: gonna see some exciting things to the wide receiver group
- 41:01Speaker 1: and uh and I think we hopefully we'll see some
- 41:04Speaker 1: exciting things out of the quarterback this year. Well, I'm
- 41:08Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna buy this because I think with the
- 41:12Speaker 1: different looking offense, though we have no idea what the
- 41:15Speaker 1: hell is gonna look like yet, we haven't seen anybody
- 41:17Speaker 1: on the field running around. You think they're gonna open
- 41:19Speaker 1: it up some You mentioned the receivers a quarterback. That
- 41:23Speaker 1: also opened some space for Leonard four Nette in theory,
- 41:26Speaker 1: maybe another guy gets out of the box, and hey,
- 41:29Speaker 1: guess what, it's a contract year for seven as well.
- 41:33Speaker 1: Not that he isn't motivated all the time anyway, but
- 41:37Speaker 1: if there's a year to be out there and be
- 41:39Speaker 1: motivated to play and play at the top level, this
- 41:43Speaker 1: is the year for that. So give me Leonard for
- 41:44Speaker 1: net in a different offense in a contract year. I'm
- 41:47Speaker 1: with you because look when I say I'm selling there,
- 41:51Speaker 1: and that means I'm taking the field. But if I
- 41:52Speaker 1: had to pick one person with the offense, because you know,
- 41:56Speaker 1: when you're talking about Leonard Fournett of the field, that's
- 41:58Speaker 1: one person or the rest of everybody else, I would
- 42:01Speaker 1: take Leonard Fournit if I had to pick one person.
- 42:04Speaker 1: I mean, he's been there, he's proven it, he's been
- 42:07Speaker 1: a workhorse in this offense. I don't see any reason
- 42:11Speaker 1: why he would not be expected to be a workhorse
- 42:13Speaker 1: once again. And when you got a guy who's extremely motivated,
- 42:16Speaker 1: he's playing in the contract contract year, um, feed him,
- 42:20Speaker 1: I mean and feed him and use him as much
- 42:23Speaker 1: as you can. And if he's with you next year, great,
- 42:27Speaker 1: If he's not, then that's just the way it is
- 42:29Speaker 1: in the National Football League. And hopefully you'll find somebody
- 42:32Speaker 1: replace him that at some point in the future. All right,
- 42:35Speaker 1: last one here, and I'll let you start on this one.
- 42:38Speaker 1: To Gardner meants you you will be a Pro Bowl
- 42:41Speaker 1: player at the end of the season. So boy, I mean,
- 42:47Speaker 1: are you kidding me? I mean, you're expecting a first
- 42:49Speaker 1: year starting quarterback to be a Pro Bowl player. I'm
- 42:54Speaker 1: looking and I'm not saying that he can't be. And
- 42:56Speaker 1: I'm not saying that he can't be or that I'm
- 42:58Speaker 1: down on him or anything of that nature, because I
- 43:00Speaker 1: think he had the best season of any rookie quarterback
- 43:04Speaker 1: last year, and the numbers speak for that. The excitement
- 43:09Speaker 1: that we saw with the mins humania I think speaks
- 43:11Speaker 1: to that. But to expect him to take that next step,
- 43:15Speaker 1: which that's a big step to go from hey, he
- 43:18Speaker 1: had a pretty good rookie year to being a Pro
- 43:20Speaker 1: Bowl type player, I mean, that's a huge step for
- 43:23Speaker 1: anybody to take. And if he does, Wow, then the
- 43:28Speaker 1: Jaguars are certainly set as an organization because you feel like, Okay,
- 43:32Speaker 1: maybe we've got a franchise quarterback. Is because of the
- 43:34Speaker 1: quarterback that you have makes the Pro Bowl in year two,
- 43:38Speaker 1: You're talking about a franchise quarterback. So but do I
- 43:41Speaker 1: expect that? Note um, and and and here's why new offense,
- 43:47Speaker 1: young offense, uh, new terminology, a COVID nineteen offseason. A
- 43:54Speaker 1: lot of speculation and and and unknowns when you're talking
- 43:58Speaker 1: about a season. For me, that's a lot to ask
- 44:01Speaker 1: of a young quarterback with the expectation of be a
- 44:04Speaker 1: Pro Bowl type of player. I'm selling this as well
- 44:07Speaker 1: for the reasons that you provided, but consider some other
- 44:12Speaker 1: a f C quarterbacks that are in this conference as well.
- 44:16Speaker 1: I mean, you're talking about Pat Mahomes that they're not
- 44:18Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl again, he's gonna be in the
- 44:21Speaker 1: Pro Bowl. Um, you're talking about big time names. Philip
- 44:24Speaker 1: Rivers is an indie right now. For goodness sakes, Lamar
- 44:27Speaker 1: Jackson the m v P. I mean that's just three
- 44:30Speaker 1: off the top. Ben Roethlisberger still playing football. You might
- 44:33Speaker 1: have heard of him. So it's a lot of big
- 44:35Speaker 1: time names who've been around the blocker time with two
- 44:37Speaker 1: in the a f C. Not to say that he
- 44:39Speaker 1: couldn't slide in somehow, but you have to really outplay
- 44:43Speaker 1: a whole lot of guys in the a f C
- 44:45Speaker 1: to get voted into the Pro Bowl if you're not
- 44:48Speaker 1: sliding in as a reserve later down the line. Well,
- 44:50Speaker 1: and and here's the deal. To to have individual recognition,
- 44:55Speaker 1: you have to have great team success. That's step number one.
- 45:00Speaker 1: If you don't have great team success, the chances of
- 45:02Speaker 1: getting recognized for Pro Bowl are are tough unless you
- 45:06Speaker 1: have incredible numbers. I mean incredible numbers. And a quarterback
- 45:10Speaker 1: is always judged by wins and losses. And this team
- 45:14Speaker 1: is a long way away from last year saying Okay,
- 45:19Speaker 1: this is gonna be a successful football team. They're gonna
- 45:22Speaker 1: have ten plus wins as an organization. That's that's a
- 45:25Speaker 1: lot to ask. We're back in a moment. We'll go
- 45:29Speaker 1: around the National Football League. How did you like by ourselves?
- 45:32Speaker 1: Are you? Are you buying or selling by ourselves? No,
- 45:35Speaker 1: I'm buying it. I'm buying it. And you know, we'll
- 45:37Speaker 1: mix it up, and I'll also kind of criticize the
- 45:40Speaker 1: question every now again. That's fair. You can mix it up,
- 45:44Speaker 1: that's fair, you can sell the question. If you'd like
- 45:46Speaker 1: to back in a moment around the league. It's Jaguars

- 49:36Speaker 1: Welcome back Jaguar's Happy Hour. By the way, Congratulations to
- 49:39Speaker 1: Fulham Football Club, owned by the Con family. Of course,
- 49:44Speaker 1: they lost the match today to Cardiff City, but they
- 49:47Speaker 1: won the aggregate goal number of the two matches against Cardiff,
- 49:52Speaker 1: so Fulham is headed to Wimbley for the final match
- 49:55Speaker 1: against Brentford. The winner of that match gets promoted to
- 49:58Speaker 1: the Premier League next easy. So Fulham just a moment
- 50:01Speaker 1: ago they went full time. They lost again today as
- 50:04Speaker 1: we said, two to one, but they won the aggregate
- 50:06Speaker 1: goal over the last two matches to move on. So
- 50:09Speaker 1: congrats to uh certainly Mr con Tony Con who's involved
- 50:13Speaker 1: very much over there and the entire full full of
- 50:15Speaker 1: football club family. One more game at Wimbley to see
- 50:18Speaker 1: if they can get back up in the Premier League.
- 50:20Speaker 1: Pretty cool stuff, lugs, very cool stuff, and you always
- 50:23Speaker 1: want to kind of go into that situation winning, but nonetheless,
- 50:28Speaker 1: when you get there, it's still a reason for celebration. Yeah,
- 50:31Speaker 1: Hey they're in, They're playing at Wembley. It's all that matters. Now,
- 50:34Speaker 1: go win the thing and get back in the premier league.
- 50:36Speaker 1: Let's go around the National Football League and logs. The
- 50:40Speaker 1: opt outs around the league continue to roll in, including
- 50:44Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs running back Damian Williams. Now in steps
- 50:48Speaker 1: rookie Clyde Edwards Hilaire out of l s U. He's
- 50:51Speaker 1: a first round traffick running back. He was expecting to
- 50:53Speaker 1: contribute anyway, but with the Super Bowl hero Williams out,
- 50:57Speaker 1: now it's a it's a big spotlight now for Edwards
- 50:59Speaker 1: away well, I think it's a big spotlight and one
- 51:03Speaker 1: that the Chiefs were excited about getting them because they
- 51:07Speaker 1: were raving about him after they were able to get
- 51:09Speaker 1: him in the draft, and they said, he's a multidimensional tool.
- 51:12Speaker 1: He's gonna be not only a running back, but a
- 51:14Speaker 1: great receiving option out of the backfield. And when you
- 51:17Speaker 1: put a guy that has that flexibility like him in
- 51:21Speaker 1: that offense, man, that's a hard offense to deal with
- 51:25Speaker 1: as it is, but then you put another kind of
- 51:27Speaker 1: a jack of all trades in it. Hold on a
- 51:30Speaker 1: lot of opt outs around the league, though, lugs with that.
- 51:33Speaker 1: You know, obviously, if you have a pre existing condition
- 51:36Speaker 1: and are a little more susceptible to COVID nineteen, there's
- 51:40Speaker 1: a higher payout. It's a hundred and fifty thousand dollars otherwise,
- 51:44Speaker 1: but it does come out of your salary next year
- 51:47Speaker 1: if you decide to opt out this year. Yeah, that's
- 51:49Speaker 1: a tough decision, I think for a lot of guys
- 51:52Speaker 1: because it's not necessarily just about them. It's about their family.
- 51:57Speaker 1: You know. Some guys may have a mother or a
- 52:01Speaker 1: father that lives with them that may be at risk.
- 52:04Speaker 1: They may have a newborn children. Uh So there's a
- 52:08Speaker 1: lot of different reasons why people could opt out and
- 52:11Speaker 1: totally understand it. Totally understand it because if you are
- 52:15Speaker 1: at risk, it's real. I mean it's absolutely real. And
- 52:18Speaker 1: you know, we all got to see firsthand with with
- 52:21Speaker 1: Poselli's issue when he had COVID in early stages of
- 52:26Speaker 1: all this was going down. Heck, he's an intensive care
- 52:29Speaker 1: you know. So, Uh did the thought cross my mind
- 52:33Speaker 1: that Tony might not make it at that point? Heck yeah,
- 52:36Speaker 1: you know so. I mean, if you're somebody that has
- 52:38Speaker 1: those type of concerns, or somebody in your family has
- 52:40Speaker 1: those type of concerned you know, totally get opting out,
- 52:44Speaker 1: and I think it was great that that the league
- 52:46Speaker 1: and the union were able to come to an agreement
- 52:49Speaker 1: in that fashion so that the players don't feel like
- 52:52Speaker 1: they have to do something. This gives them a way
- 52:56Speaker 1: to take a step back and then to make an
- 52:59Speaker 1: important decision that is sometimes the most important decision. The
- 53:04Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans have still not heard from Vic Beasley. He
- 53:07Speaker 1: did not show up for COVID nineteen testing again Wednesday.
- 53:11Speaker 1: I had no communication with the team as to why
- 53:13Speaker 1: he was added to the reserve, did not report list.
- 53:16Speaker 1: And now it's a one year proven deal with Tennessee
- 53:18Speaker 1: this offseason, but so far a no show in Tennessee. Yeah,
- 53:23Speaker 1: I don't. I don't understand that. You know, Vic Beasley
- 53:26Speaker 1: is a is a good football player. Uh, you obviously
- 53:30Speaker 1: didn't get the contract. I mean, I don't know. I mean,
- 53:33Speaker 1: here's the thing. When you don't have any kind of
- 53:35Speaker 1: response from a player and there's no information coming from
- 53:39Speaker 1: him or his camp, I mean, everything else is just speculation.
- 53:43Speaker 1: I hope everything is okay with him and uh, and
- 53:46Speaker 1: at some point, I'm sure we'll find out what's going on. Yeah, well,
- 53:49Speaker 1: uh we'll find out. Yeah, I didn't didn't show up
- 53:51Speaker 1: again yesterday. Nick Bosa has shown up, though, and he
- 53:55Speaker 1: is getting paid by the Chargers a five year extensive,
- 53:59Speaker 1: highest paid defensive player in the NFL. UH. The extension
- 54:03Speaker 1: is worth a hundred thirty five million dollars, including a
- 54:06Speaker 1: hundred and two million dollars guaranteed that exceeds the Miles
- 54:10Speaker 1: Garrett extension that he got from Cleveland a couple of
- 54:12Speaker 1: weeks back. So a lot of money going out to
- 54:15Speaker 1: the Boasta family. Well, he's worth He's worth every penny
- 54:19Speaker 1: you're you're talking about a guy that from him and
- 54:22Speaker 1: his brother both when when they stepped into the to
- 54:25Speaker 1: the game, they were dominant immediately. Now, I don't put
- 54:29Speaker 1: him on the level of like a Reggie White or
- 54:32Speaker 1: Bruce Smith, but I mean he is one of the
- 54:35Speaker 1: premier pass rushers in the National Football League. He's got
- 54:39Speaker 1: a great motor, He's got a lot of different ways
- 54:41Speaker 1: that he can rush the quarterback effectively. He's good against
- 54:44Speaker 1: the run. Uh, He's he's the type of player he's
- 54:47Speaker 1: a foundational building block of any organization. Of course, I
- 54:51Speaker 1: called him the wrong brother name. It's a Joey Bosa
- 54:54Speaker 1: got paid by the Chargers. Nick' that's both of him
- 55:00Speaker 1: are so dagon good. I mean, here's a great argument,
- 55:04Speaker 1: who would you rather have? Would you rather have Nick
- 55:07Speaker 1: or would you rather have Joey? I mean, I think
- 55:09Speaker 1: that's a great question, and I think a lot of
- 55:12Speaker 1: general managers would have a hard time determining which one
- 55:15Speaker 1: that they would have first out of those two guys. Well,
- 55:18Speaker 1: who would you take first? Well, I don't know. I mean,
- 55:22Speaker 1: I'd like to see a little bit more sample size
- 55:23Speaker 1: that I mean, so far, everything that I've seen out
- 55:26Speaker 1: of Nick, I'd have a tendency to lean towards Nick
- 55:29Speaker 1: right now after watching his rookie season, he was tremendous. Well,
- 55:33Speaker 1: I would take him because he's cheaper right now than
- 55:36Speaker 1: than Joey is after yesterday. Right, that's a that's a
- 55:41Speaker 1: great statement because economics always does factor into roster building.
- 55:46Speaker 1: Is that all right? Because you know, you never know
- 55:49Speaker 1: you're in, you're cheap, you're so well, I mean, the
- 55:53Speaker 1: salary cap by trip next year, I gotta think ahead now.
- 55:56Speaker 1: I think for this year, we're gonna think three years
- 55:58Speaker 1: ahead live you know, hopefully there's a little bit of
- 56:02Speaker 1: when you're talking about the salary cap, you know, the
- 56:05Speaker 1: the agreement that the NFL p A and the NFL
- 56:08Speaker 1: has and you you're talking about smoothing it out and
- 56:11Speaker 1: lessening the pain over a number of years instead of
- 56:14Speaker 1: having that that one year hit, which would have been
- 56:17Speaker 1: catastrophic for some football teams if you didn't have some
- 56:20Speaker 1: type of agreement in place that allowed the numbers to
- 56:24Speaker 1: smooth over time and you know whereas if they stayed
- 56:28Speaker 1: under the current rules of play, there would have been
- 56:29Speaker 1: a massive salary cap hit in and teams would have
- 56:33Speaker 1: been cutting guys all over. Final piece of news around
- 56:37Speaker 1: the league, the league's top one d players list came
- 56:41Speaker 1: out through NFL Media. Here's the top five and it's
- 56:44Speaker 1: been relatively controversial today. Number five was Sints wide receiver
- 56:49Speaker 1: Michael Thomas, number four Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, number three
- 56:55Speaker 1: Aaron Donald of the Rams, Number two Russell Wilson of
- 56:58Speaker 1: the Seahawks, and number one Lamar Jackson of the Ravens.
- 57:02Speaker 1: And I guess you're not you're not an agreeance. I'm
- 57:05Speaker 1: taking Patrick Mahomes as number one all day long, every day,
- 57:10Speaker 1: even on Sunday. Not well, the situation where this is
- 57:14Speaker 1: de voted on by players usually November December time frame,
- 57:19Speaker 1: and and the question is how many players vote? How scientific?
- 57:24Speaker 1: Is this is up your debate? I think, uh, Lamar
- 57:28Speaker 1: Jackson is the m v P. Though I mean I'm
- 57:30Speaker 1: not I'm not now having Mahomes fourth. I'm with you.
- 57:33Speaker 1: He shouldn't be fourth on that list. Should at least Look,
- 57:37Speaker 1: I think Lamar Jackson's a great football player, and he's
- 57:40Speaker 1: I can't imagine trying to prepare for a quarterback of
- 57:42Speaker 1: that nature of your defensive coordinat but longevity. Which quarterback
- 57:47Speaker 1: are you taking? Are you taking the quarterback that's gonna
- 57:49Speaker 1: function from the pocket. Are you gonna take the quarterback
- 57:52Speaker 1: that makes things happen with his legs? I'm taking the
- 57:55Speaker 1: guy that functions in the pocket. Well you you called
- 57:59Speaker 1: that the pre draft process too, by the way, remember yeah, Well,
- 58:03Speaker 1: I mean I thought of all the college players that
- 58:06Speaker 1: I watched quarterbacks, you know, not like I haven't been
- 58:09Speaker 1: watching it forever, but it was the most impressive college
- 58:14Speaker 1: quarterback that I've ever watched the film on and he
- 58:16Speaker 1: just blew me away and some of the things that
- 58:18Speaker 1: he was able to do or just nothing short of impressive,
- 58:21Speaker 1: fun player to watch. And he's still is shown that
- 58:24Speaker 1: in the National Football League. And sometimes when you watch
- 58:26Speaker 1: film and those are things that you see, you just
- 58:27Speaker 1: don't know everything else about the player. All you're seeing
- 58:30Speaker 1: is film. So you're sitting there going, well, something's got
- 58:32Speaker 1: to be wrong with him if nobody's taken him like
- 58:35Speaker 1: a number one or number two or number three. I
- 58:38Speaker 1: was thinking that maybe he didn't have the mental capacity.
- 58:41Speaker 1: Maybe he's a bad guy. I couldn't figure out why
- 58:44Speaker 1: he went where he did. Well, now he's got he
- 58:47Speaker 1: can earn up to a half billion dollars with a b.
- 58:53Speaker 1: Now he just bought a piece of the Royal It's true.
- 58:58Speaker 1: I mean, it's amazing. He's so good. He just bought
- 59:03Speaker 1: at a piece of the Kansas City Royals. That's amazing stuff.
- 59:06Speaker 1: There's a look around the National Football League. Our thanks
