• 0:19
  Speaker 1: This is Jaguars Happy Hour. Jaguars Happy Hour is brought
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: to you by the Fields Auto Group. Hey now a
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: f C Special Teams Player of the Week runner up
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: J P. Shadrack. I don't think I'm gonna get it
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: this year. If Josh Lambo keeps doing what he's doing,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: it's been impressive. It has welcome in Jaguars Happy Hour
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: presented by the Fields Auto Group. JP Shadrick. That senior
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: writer John Osan Hi John Happy Jets Week. It is
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Jets weick and it's uh. I think it's it's it's
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: an amazingly similar storyline. The last week, must win against
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: the team that you should win. I mean, let's uh,
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: when you're winning five, I mean even taking away Monday Night,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: I think that was an outlier for the Jets. Everybody's
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: gonna lock onto that. But it's a home game against
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the team that's that's uh, you know, not the Saints.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: It's not the chart, you know, it's not a great
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: team coming into you ought to win it just like
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: you should have won last week. But as we saw
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: last week, if you let teams hang around, and the
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Jaguars let the Bengals hang around, h NFL teams are dangerous.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: This is not college football where you can just sort of,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: you know, slide and gradually get away. You've got to
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: earn your way away from teams. And that's a big
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: topic this week. Red zone scoring cost him last week's
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: gotta be better. Here's what's coming up on the program
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: today here on Jaguars Happy Hour, Jets Week Underway. Of course,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: as we said, we'll hear from head coach Doug Morone
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: and a couple of topics this week. Quarterback talk. There's
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: a quarterback back on the practice field this week you
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: might have heard of. So there are some linebackers that
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: you might not have heard of that are on the
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: practice field this week. Some new faces, at least the
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: uniform unvailing Jimmy Luck to to join us at about
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: four thirty five or so. Chris Conley due to join
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: us in studio after meetings. That's around four and he'll
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: have a special guest to be named. They'll surprise us
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: once again. He always does the big topics today really
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: the injury bug going around this team, especially on the
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: what do you what are you doing? John I was
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: looking for the special guest find No, Well we're gonna
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: have that at today. So, um, the big story today
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: injuries and of course late in the game. The linebackers
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: really had some issues last week the Cincinnati Bengals, and
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: they had to go sign some guys off the street.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: A name, you know, Donald Payne who was around here before.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: That will help name. You also know, um in the
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: former Super Bowl MVP, who's now on this football team.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: And he, you know, just coming off the street though.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: You just don't know what's gonna happen there. Giles Harris
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: coming off the practice squad. That's a lot of changes.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Then you throw in Marcel Darius who was not here today.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: It was in Philadelphia. Um with the core muscle issue. Um,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Marquis Sleeve is coming off of an ankle. You've got
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: the left tackle has got a toe issue. Did not
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: practice today. There's there's a long list of guys not
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: available for the Jags today. Yeah, it's it's a week. Uh.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Most teams at some point during the season go through
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: a week like this. The Jacks went through a lot
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: last year. Last years were recalled. But you're usually gonna
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: hit a stretch like this where you've got some stuff
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: that you hope it's not season ending. You hope you
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: can get through it. I'm not sure I've ever quite
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: seen a run on linebacker quite like this. I would
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: anticipate Giles Harris getting a lot of reps because he's
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: been around. This is a staff and a team that
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: likes to go with what is familiar. So I would
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: anticipate you seeing uh I a mile and and uh
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: and and I Harris on the field. But these guys
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: who got brought in this week, they're gonna have to play.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's gonna be an amazingly quick turnaround.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I you would anticipate seeing even more nickel than usual.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: If if Jacobs is down, you can alleviate that by
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: just playing in your nickel package. Jared Wilson is basically
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: uh A a linebacker at times. He played it last week,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: so so you can you get by with that. But
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: it's tough. I mean, it's it's you've got to get
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: through it. Every's gonna focus on the Jets all week
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: and how poorly they played against the Patriots, but considering
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars injury lists, considering what they're gonna have to
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: adapt to, Uh, I do just think it's gonna be
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a closer game than people think. I think. Uh, the
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Jaguars defense is going to be playing a motivated Jets
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: team that has not been as bad most of the
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: season with Donald as it was on my day Doug
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Marone discussing the linebacker position earlier today and his Wednesday
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: press conference. To add a couple of guys, we switched
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: out Perry and Joe Giles Harris from practice squad the roster,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: and then we brought Donald painback, who be able to
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: help us um you know the system special team wise,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: and and Malcolm Smith, another veteran player who's who's playing
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: in the system. So obviously when you bring that many
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: players in, I'd probably be listed as doubtful that any
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: of those other three, you know, we'll be ready to
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: play this week, even though they're obviously gonna try. Not
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: good on that list as well, of course for this
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Jaguars team. I spoke with Joe Giles Harris in the
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: locker room today. He was on the practice squad the
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: first seven weeks of the season brought up to the
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: active roster. He's fired up for sure. Oh, keeping up
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: on my play book and doing everything, doing the little
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: things while I've been here, you know, hoping i'd get
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: this chance, and I finally have it. So I'm ready
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: to go. And like I said, and whatever capacity need,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: whatever they made to play, I'll be ready to play.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: A lot of new faces out there today. Yes, that
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: where it is where it's different. I mean, that's what
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: the NFL is. You know, from the time I've been here,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of faces come and go, and
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: it's it's kind of, you know, a crazy, crazy thing,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: but uh, you get used to it, and you know,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: you know, just talking, you get guys in who are
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: committing to a goal. So you know, we still got
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: the core and you know, these new guys are gonna
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: help us do what we've been doing. Miles Jack's still there,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: but a lot of new faces around. And that's what
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: canda happens. And it's not just on the defensive side
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: where this can affect things. I spoke with Josh Robinson
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: in the locker room today. Special teams a cornerback. It
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: can play safety too, but on the special teams here,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: you've got a lot of guys who may not have
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: been around here. Now things change week to week on
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: special teams and assignments and all that, but it's still
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: and that's kind of somehow sometimes how it happens on
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: special teams that part of the roster turns a lot
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: during season. Well, it does, and it's why special teams
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: coordinators such a difficult job. It's on a lot of
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: teams you're not getting guys even at the beginning of
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: the season, uh, that you'll love, because some teams don't
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: pay attention to This team does pay attention to special
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: teams at the start of the season, so there's a
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: priority on it. But this is the time of year
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: where those guys have to adapt quickly. They have to
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: put guys in spots that are really starters for them, uh,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: and they're playing with backups and guys who were just
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: off the streets. So it's tough. It affects things. And
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: then when you turn it over, even to the offensive side,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: always now have two positions that are really depleted. You
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: have tight end and you have linebacker that are way
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: down from what you thought it would be. And even
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: at the start of the season. Frankly, those were not
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: positions that on paper looked like great positions of strength
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: with the starters or with depth. They were huge question
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: marks going in and now there major question marks. You've
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: got a tight end position, now that is uh. You
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: know you're counting on a rookie Josh Oliver to come
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: back and play. You've got a linebacker position and where
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Miles Jack is frankly the one guy that any Jaguars
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: fan would have heard of, Malcolm Smith, but you know
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: at that point who had any relation to this team
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: as of Monday. So it is uh. It is a
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: tough situation that I usually believe you can get through
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: certain injury spots without it affecting you much. There to
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: the point of those two positions where it will affect
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: and they have to overcome with formances somewhere else on
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: your screen there that they have. Of the active tight ends,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: only set the valve has a catch and that's one
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: catch this year. The other two guys, I mean, they
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: haven't been on the rush yet. It's not like sets
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: been putting up numbers. I mean, so it's just not
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: really his role though there's always been a bleed blocker
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: and then an extra I mean, the tight end blocking.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: It's a lot to ask, but they need I would
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: put the percentage is low at Josh Oliver making a
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: huge contribution because it is just tough after being out
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: ten weeks to come back as a rookie. You know,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: most rookie third rounders are trying to figure out the
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: whole season. Now he's being asked to be like a
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: focal point on Twitter, Josh Hollward, just Hollard Oliver. That's
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: a tough ask, but they've got to get something out
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: of it because otherwise the middle of the field on
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: this offense, they're having trouble finding something to get going there.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: It's affecting the offense. Uh, you gotta think some of
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: the red zones stuff is not having a tight end
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: that you can rely on. Nobody's fault really, but they've
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: got to get some production out there, and it's it's
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: gonna be interesting to see where that happens. Now we've
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: we're talking about news that will affect this game this
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: week obviously, but some news that could affect the Jaguars
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: a couple of weeks away. The quarterback position. Nick Foles
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: back at practice today and head coach jug Maron was asked,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: what if Nick Foles is not ready for a week
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: O eleven, what would happen? I don't know. I mean,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: I really don't. I think that's why you have a
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: twenty one day window, you know what I'm saying. For
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: when the guy goes back and he starts practicing, I
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: don't think I'm as concerned like when John said, Hey,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: what are you expecting? What are you looking for? I
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: think this is just week one back. So we're gonna
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: take it back very slowly, and I'll probably be, you know,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: looking at it more so as we get closer, you know,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: to see to see where he is. And I think
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: there'll be a lot of communication on you know, how
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: you feel and what's going on. Little by little there
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: you'll see some scout teams from seven on well we
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: won't see it, but he'll have some scout team works
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: from seven on seven, and then as the weeks go on,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks, we'll do more and more reps. Yeah,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: and if you were slash reader may have heard me
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: laughing there at Doug's comments. It's I laughed when he
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: said it in the press conference. It's exactly right, Hey,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: what's gonna happen a couple of weeks? I don't know,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, and that's exactly where we are in the
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: whole story right now. What's gonna happen this this is
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: still nearly three weeks out two games. I don't know
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: if it's gonna be Minshew coming back. I mean, I'm
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: just gonna be Falest coming back starting to Minshew. I
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: think right now, if I had to lean one way,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: my guesses that's what they'll do. It feels like that
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: is more likely. But it's not like I'm talking a chance.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, I just think that's probably the way they go. Uh,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: you don't know about Minshew's healthy runs around a whole lot.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: You don't know about Fold's ability to stay healthy once
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: he's back. So UM with this quarterback situation, and this
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: is not just the case with Jaguars fans, it's every
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: quarter situation always happens. People always want to who's going
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: to start for the duration um, and that's what you
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: want ideally. But right now, the good news for the
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Jaguars is they have two guys who they like, who
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: they feel good about. And if you feel like you
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: can win with um, I think right now, the best
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: thing to approach is really there's gonna be a debate
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: on the outside, but realize that this is going to
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: be something that they maybe figure out as they go
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: and it becomes a decision after that by and uh
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: maybe not a wrong decision in there. So that uh,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: as I said a couple of times, isn't this just
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: like the Jaguars jp to be choosing between a couple
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: of good quarterbacks? It happens all the time. This problem
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: is plagued, this frantiseise. Just get past that, then they
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: can move forward. We did hear from quarterback Gardner Minshew
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: today around all of the situation with Nick fools back
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: on the field. He likes it. Yeah, I mean I
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: think we're they we're pretty good at quarterback. Nothing else,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: you know, like we got hopefully that's that's the case. Um,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: you know, we love working together and it's it's gonna
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: be a lot of fun. No, that's why, Like we're all,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: like everybody in that room's worried about beating the Jets
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: this week, and then next week is gonna beat the Texans,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: and then after that and they'll be beating whoever else
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: we play. After the by. So there's Gardner menshow today
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: and good spirits of course about the whole deal. That's nothing.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Nick hasn't been around here, but it's just different seen
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: in back the field, and that's real. I mean it's
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: it's every quarterback every time he's been a controversy throughout
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: the history of time. Um, what Gardner just said has
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: been what has been said publicly. Oh you're all on
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: the same page. The room were all about winning. But
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: with these two, I don't pretend to know Nick that well.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: He just got here in marching mointendo and Gardener that well.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: But I never heard anything to make me think that
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: those guys wouldn't be supportive of each other. It's probably
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: about as as good as situation as you could have
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: to have two quarterbacks in that situation. Folds has proven
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: over the length of his career, especially the last couple
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: of years, that he can handle being the backup if
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: he were to be Minshoe. You know, you've been around
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: and I can't imagine it being a you know, they
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: all want to play. Within the context of that being true,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: I think both these guys could handle it very well
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: and be a positive. We'll hear from Leonard for that.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: He scheduled to speak on Thursday, and it's all as
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: we say each week, it's it's always interesting to see
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: what he has to say. He's now leading the a
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: f C and rushing and just talking to some of
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the offensive linemen today in the locker room, they feel
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: like they have some little something going in the run
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: game now, especially up front. It took him a little
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: bit to get going as an offense. I think with that,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: and Leonard said that last week that he just, you know,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: he was a little bit there was something the first
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: few weeks didn't just didn't he he didn't say slapp
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: for good his wording on it last week in the
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: locker room in Cincinnati, but it just wasn't as good
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: as it was the last three or four weeks. And
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: now they've broken through here and you see the numbers
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: on your screen what Leonard has done. But some of
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: those guys up front said today, hey, we're finally starting
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: to get in the groove. Even with some of the
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: changes up front that they've had the rotating guards on
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: the right side and Cam in and out of the
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: lineup on the left side. It's just taken a little while,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: but it's finally starting to get moving on offense. Well,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: it would have struggled for a time. You had John
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Taylor's a rookie, came robin and didn't play last year,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: come off from a c L. None of them played
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: together during preseason. Even if they had played during preseason,
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: they don't play enough games anymore to get continuity in
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: the running game early. You also had a tight end situation.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Swain was new, Oliver was new. Uh Swain I believe
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: missed some time during the preseason if I remember, and
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: so it was it was. It was foolhardy, if you will,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: to think they were going to come out and be
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: as good Week one as they might be in Week
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: six or seven. Doug sort of hinted at this a
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks back after I think it was after
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: the week six after New Orleans, where he thought, you know,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: he was seeing stuff on tape that he liked. When
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: they were breakdowns, it was one guy, not the whole thing.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: People kind of poo pooed that and said, oh, well,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: you should be better. One breakdown is enough to kill
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: a whole running game. Oh that's true. But Doug doesn't
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: use the both smoke on stuff like that, and you
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: can tell in the results, you can tell how hard
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Leonards running. I said this a few times, JP. Somewhere
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: during minshew Mania. You remember you were caught up in
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: minshew Mania, remember the Yeah, I mean, but you were out,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: you were out in the bars min uh. And then
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: there was the Ramsey thing that we were all caught
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: up in. Somewhere during all that, for Net got really
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: really good and became the player that they drafted, and
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: they got back to being the team they wanted to be,
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: which this seems always wanted to be a running team
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: during all that other stuff. They they got the offense
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: to what they wanted it to be. Now let's see
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: if they can go forward with it. But all of
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: a sudden, he's the number four overall, picking the draft
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: that you drafted, leading the a f C and rushing
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: sort of the identity of the team. And before those
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: two storyline started developing, you know, in week two when
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: we went into that phase, you'd never thought that had
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: been the six weeks later. So while we weren't looking,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: he became the guy you weren't looking, JP. I don't
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: think anybody was. Everybody was distracted by everything else. Yeah,
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: A credit to him, because as we've gone over and
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: over on this show, you would have never thought on
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: August one that Leonard Fornet be leading the league in rushing,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: that he'd be basically a team leader. Yeah, the team
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: leader that I think they wanted him to be last
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: year when he was captain. Uh, every sort of lampooned
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: him being the captain last year's all the stuff he
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: went through, Well he was the captain. Now you wouldn't
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: blink an eye. You'd think good choice. So he's the
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: guy now that they hoped he'd be all along, And
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: credit to him because I didn't think he could do
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: plenty to discuss in this program. Will come back in
• 17:46

  Speaker 1: i A A bank Field to the Game this week,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: presented by Baptist Health, Changing Healthcare for Good. It's time
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: this part of the program. Each week we pick our
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: players to watch. You know, you get all the guys
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: we talked about to open the show for Nat and
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: Menshew and d J Charksley in the A f C
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: and receiving and those are the big flashy names. Right,
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: we're gonna dig. We'll not dig a little deeper. We're
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: giving some other players to watch. Actually, no, because one
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: of minds D D Chart That's fine, that's okay, or
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Chart right, you can pick one of the flashy guys
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: if you can. That's the point. You can pick whoever
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: you want. So, John, who are your Well, I've always
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: sc the lead. DJ charks one, um uh and I
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: picked him because although you say he's flashy guy, and
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: he is. Uh he has been limited the last couple
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: of weeks, uh by basically what happens in the NFL.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: He he had five good games, five really good games. Uh.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: Teams watched film and said, okay, we're gonna take this
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: element of the Jaguars away. We're gonna take Shark's ability
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: to win athletically went with the speed. We're gonna double
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: him over the top of the safety highward on both
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: sides of the field and take that away. Well, it's worked,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: and last week you saw the first inklings DJ Charks
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: taking away. What should happen, Chris Conny should start winning
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: and d D Westbrooks, you have more opportunities. That happened.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: So now I would expect teams to realize that they
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: have to take those things away too, And I would
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: expect DJ Chark over the course of time to start
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: learning more how to beat that coverage. Uh, there are
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: ways to beat any coverage. The great ones start beating it,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: So I would expect DJ to start bouncing back. And uh,
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: I think this is a week where he could do that.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: That just takes repetition and doing it in games and
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: and figuring it out. Somebody can tell it to you, obviously,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: you know, Keenan McCardell can tell him how to do it,
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: but you just gotta go try to do it. It
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: also realistically takes some patience. I mean it's it's as
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: a young number, you know, It's why early on in
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: the season, Wheneveryboy said always the one heis and one
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: he's and one. Well, it usually takes receivers three or
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: four years to get to a point where they're a
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: true one because you've got to get through phases like this.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: You've got to learn how to beat these things. Um.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: So I think what will happen is if they keep
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: doing this defense, the Jaguars say, that's fine, we'll hit
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: DJ a few times, keep iran, but we'll also take
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Westbrook and Connelly and we'll win there as well. So
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: the team will be fine doing that, as they showed
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: last week. So I expect DJ to start beating that
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: a little more a little more each week and to
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: start benefiting from teams looking at Connley and Westbrook defensively.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: I found this one fairly interesting because earlier in the
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: year this guy was taking a lot of heat and
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: then he's turned it around a little bit as the
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: last few weeks were gone. Yeah, it's it's Tavin Bryant
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: who had his best game the other day, and most
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: people who follow the Jacks would realized what he did.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Without Tavin's pressure, the unique and got way pick six
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: doesn't happen. He forced that, but he also did other things.
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: He had four or five plays where he really showed up.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: The reason I picked him for this is, I don't know.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: It seems doubtful with Marcel Darius going to Philadelphia for
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: treatment today, it would seem doubtful that Marcel is a
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: place Sunday where he's a dred percent, etcetera, etcetera. Uh,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: they have needed all along with Marcel contract indicating that
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: there's a good chance he wouldn't be back next year.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: They need Taven to develop and become a force in
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: the inside. It's why he was drafted. Well now with
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: him hurt, what an ideal time if what we saw
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: last week is real, and sometimes it takes time for
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: that to be consistent. But Tavin Bryan is important because
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: if Marcel is not playing all of a sudden, you
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: get a lot thinner there and you need playmaking there.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: Taven did it last week, needs to do it again.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: All right, You have DJ Truck Taven Brian, two very
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: nice choices. Appreciate that I like those. Miles Jack for
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: me on defense. We could pick any of the new
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: names if you wanted to, or Giles Harris the rookie,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: but I'm going with Miles jack because hes gonna keep
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: all that together. There may the only other be one
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: other linebacker on the field at one point in the
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: whey they play with a nickel and all that stuff.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: But for Miles to get these moving parts and things
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: in the right order, if for some reason they're more
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: than that out there, then he's gonna get them in
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: the right place. So for me, Myles Jackie had an
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: interception last week on a fantastic play in Cincinnati. How
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: can he keep this group going? I think it's a
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: big focus. Cloning would be good. At this point, I
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: bounced off a couple of people. They say, good idea.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: He's the only guy that you've heard of. It's healthy
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: and uh so I agree with you. I think he's
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: an important guy for a couple of reasons. Um, he
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: hasn't played as poorly as observers believe. He had a
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: bad play against Carolina. It's like Oho breakouts. A lot
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: of his issue has been trying to make up for
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: youth around him. Uh that went away a little bit.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: If you notice when Nazi Good was playing, all of
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: a sudden, Miles started playing better. Well, now he's back
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: to where it's as difficult as part of the season
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: has been. On that front form it gets even more difficult.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: So I agree with you. I was going to pick
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: my I was a tough out. You picked Myles for
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: this because it's a It is very important that you
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: play well. It's very important that he keep the people
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: around him on the same page. And against a guy
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: like Levyan Bell whose m o is patients make you
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: jump out of your lanes, defensively, make you miss, he
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: really exploits what they have done poorly. At times. He
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: can hurt you if you jump out of your lane.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: So it is going to be up to Miles to
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: a stay discipline and keep the people around him disciplined.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: The Jets, there's not that much they can hurt you offensively.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: That can't can can pick you apart if you let him.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: And then other one. We we kind of foreshadowed it earlier.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: The tight end position. Only one catch among the active
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: tight ends right now Seth de Valve, and he's the
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: fullback most times. Um and talking to him in the
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: locker room today. It's kind of how a lot of these,
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: some of the tight ends in the League of gone
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: and a lot of teams don't have a true fullback anymore,
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: so you put an h back act there and that's
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: what Seth de Valve has been a lot of times
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: for this team. But you have to be able to
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: run the route tree as a tight end and block
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: outside and block in the backfield, and you know, there's
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: only a few guys that are really able to do
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: all of that in the league. Koyak has been around
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: here for a bit, but he was signed off the
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: street in Week six after the Oshaughnessy injury, and then
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: Josh Oliver made his debut last week but was not targeted.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: He was fantastic in the off season program, but he's
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: been hurt the entire training camp and into the season.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: So he's back and he getting moving after the Jeff
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Swain injured reserve move. We'll see. This is a big obviously,
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: We've talked about it already. It's a huge question mark
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: for this offense. It would help in the red zone,
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: it would help over the middle of the field and
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: help balance things out if they can get some production
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: in the passing game from these guys. Yeah, it's it's
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: reached a point where it's glaring, and it's reached a
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: point where I it feels like there's only one answer,
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: and that's Josh Oliver right now, let's take a trade
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: for somebody next week. Uh, it feels like that's the
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: only answer. And I don't know if we have any
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: idea what that answer is yet. And it's a tough spot.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know where the improvement comes from, and if
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: it doesn't come from Josh, and I think it's uh,
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: it's almost unfair to him to expect him to lift
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: something this heavy, no doubt. And so it seems like
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: depending on what happens this weekend, depending on how he
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: plays and what they can do, they may be in
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: the market next week, sort of out of desperation at
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: that spot. Uh, it hasn't been there m O. But
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: it's it's it's a really difficult spot that I'm not
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: sure they dig out of without some outside help. They
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: might might have to go make a move and do
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: something and we'll see what happens with that. There's there
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: are players to watch. I had Miles Jack and the
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: tight end position, so I guess that's technically four guys,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: and you had d J. Shark and Tavn Bryan good choices.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: I was talking about mine, but okay, yours were good
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: to John. Let's take a look at the ANFC South standings.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: Where did the team stand after a week? Number seven?
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: And the Indianapolis Colts are now in first place at
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: four and two, Houston four and three, the Jags and
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: the Titans in that order. Of course, the Jags get
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: the Texans next week in London. All of these teams
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: coming up this week though, as we look at the
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: week eight schedule, they're all at home this week, Broncos
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: at the Colts of course, Jets are here in Jacksonville,
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: the Bucks of the Titans, and the Raiders at the Texans,
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: all home games. In the a f C South Broncos game,
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: you know, they have the defense too, and some parts
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: on that defense as we saw at times, to to
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: do some things. The Buccaneers, if Jamis doesn't throw five interceptions,
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: they can hang in there. And the Raiders are the Raiders,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: they can hang in there too. Yeah. It feels to
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: me right now like you've reached a point with the
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: Texans and the Colts. You can't let him get further away.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: But if you're gonna reel them back in, you're gonna
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: have to do it with your own fishing rod. You
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: know you're gonna have to beat him. And uh So
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: with the Colts, I would say, don't lose. Don't lose
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: any more ground in the lost column. You've got them twice.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: There's no reason that you can't beat that team. You've
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: matched up even in years where you've struggled, You've matched
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: up well against this team. Last year when the Colts
• 30:22

• 33:31
  Speaker 1: John Osier and that music. Each week means it's time
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: for Jimmy Luck and equipment manager. What's happen? What's up man?
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: How are you just getting ready a home game, A
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: big home game, not a little one. Big it's huge
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: because I mean, guess it's the last game of the
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: Stadiul that obviously, but this is the last game in
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: the stadium for the Jaguars until December. Think about that
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: for a while. You gotta take advantage of these home games.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: It's be used for you. You'll be doing a lot
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: of travel. Yeah, decided about that. Hello, there's a bye
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: week in there. I'm pretty pumped about that. Yeah, so
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: that bye week's coming up. But one, one week at
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: a time. Exactly what's the hat this week? I see
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: there's a crucial catch this week. Okay, pretty cool? Yeah
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: like that. And they used to do just the breast
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: cancer awareness. Now it's all so everybody has their own
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: their own thing. That's pretty cool. And how much gear
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: is they're involved with it? Now it's just hats now,
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: thanks you used to be UM does have like the
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: QB towels, some gloves, some pleats, UM sweatshirts, although it
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: may it may be a little warm for sweatshirts this week,
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: but hopefully it won't rain. Because for a while, when
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: it was first breast cancer awareness, it was mainly breast cancer.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: It was. It was like a lot of paint, a lot.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: So I was thinking about this the other day, um,
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: on Sunday when the Niners played in Washington in the
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: horrible rain conditions. In Washington is noted for not having
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: the best surface around as the season goes on, especially
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: but in a swamp like that. As an equipment manager,
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: I feel bad for those guys. Yeah, when you're going
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: into that, anybody you know what's coming, and but you
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: have to get the team prepared as well. Different kind
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: of cleats, different spikes explain the process of getting ready
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: for a game like that and then the aftermath of
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: a game like that, well it's not fun. Um. Obviously,
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: footing was was quite an issue there. Um. We anytime
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: we play on a grass surface, we take the screw
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: ins um seven studs some people call them, but basically
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: you can take the cleats out and adjusted. You know. However,
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: the link there's a couple of different links. So many
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: would that be? Would that be a set for every
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: shoe you have with you? I mean, is it that many? Yeah?
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: So what we we pretty much have them set up
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: with because there's the low one which is a half
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: inch and then there's five eights. We pretty much pack
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: them in the trunk at five eights because if you're
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: wearing half inch, you're probably gonna wear your molded your
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: regular molded bottom shoes, so that's why we pull that out.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: But there's some guys that will wear um maybe like
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: a special pattern on there, like you know kind of
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: we call the diamond pattern where it's more in the forefront,
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: and say, I need to switch there's a guy screwing
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: in the cleats, right, Yeah, so we got like a
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: little pit crew with the gun of the uh the
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: drill gun there and we get it going. So that's
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: why how much time does it take to switch out?
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: Like is it? Um? It's it's pretty you know, I
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: haven't timed ourselves lately. Most guys don't like wearing them,
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: but obcvitually we got to London that will be a
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: big jim. So we'll have them and you know, we
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: try to encourage the guys to at least put the
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: shoes on and wear them, so that way, even if
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: they adjust the link, as long as they have them on,
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: that's a little bit easier switching them out than have
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: to take it off. Yeah, especially if they've taped up
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: on the outside of their shoes like it takes a
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: little bit. So yeah, and you don't that you don't
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: have that much time sometimes on the sidelines. That's right. Well,
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: that's why we encourage them during pregame warm ups to
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: go out there and test it, see what they got.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: There's always a couple of don't listen to you. Oh,
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: there's no doubt that it works. Sometimes you can take
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: him to water, that's right. He can't make him drink it.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: Let's see, all right. So it's a home game coming up.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: It's week number eight. It's the last home game in
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: Jacksonville for a while. So with that mind, what will
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars wear this week against the New York Jets?
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: What you got for us? Jimmy, who got the white pants?
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: We've been wearing those a lot a little bit. And
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: then we're gonna go with the teal jersey teal at
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: home again. We got the player of the Special Teams
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: Player of the week. There, he's been perfect this year
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: and um he is the f C Special Teams Player
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: of the Week's bringing donuts in for us? That's nice?
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: Does he really tell? It's right there? Well? There, you know,
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: that's what that's what it takes to get the jersey
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: on the show sometimes, right, teal Over White, I like it.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: Good home look for the Jacksonville Jaguars this week, Yes
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: they do. Yes, it should be a nice, nice weather weekend, hopefully.
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: I mean there's a little chance of rain, but maybe
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: we'll hopefully just be partly cloudy, won't be as hot,
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: cool it off a little bit around here. Finally, that'd
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: be nice. But I mean I'm sure we'll still get
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: an eighty five day here or there. Won't get that
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: in London next week. I'll tell you that it'll be
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: a little cool. Looking ahead a little bit, it looks
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: like it's uh, mid fifties as the high mid forties
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: as a low rain rain rain a little during the
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: week during the week. Yeah, see what happens on Sunday, Jimmy,
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: thank you alright, always good to see you app teal
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: Over White. For the Jaguars at home this week against
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: the New York Jets. There's a good look at D. D. Westbrook,
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: who hopefully will get in the end zone this week. Yeah,
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: the receiver's been playing well overall. Last week. They spread
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: the wealth a little bit, a little touchdown to all right,
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: he did, he did, And we're gonna hear from Chris
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: Connley coming up, who had a big handed last week's Yeah,
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: he had a big game, big like forty seven yard
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: or in the second half of the fourth quarter, big
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: play to get him down close. So he's coming up. Jimmy,

  Speaker 1: Coming up Chris Conley and a guest to be named.

  Speaker 1: Once meetings are done, they'll join us here in studio
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: and we will get some thoughts on last week's matchup
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: and look ahead to this week's game against the Jets.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: I'm interested to see what this as we talked about earlier,
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: what this offense can do, and they put up four
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: sixty yards last week. It's not like they didn't move
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: the ball. They didn't have great starting field position early
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: in that game in Cincinnati, they like their own sixteen
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: in the first half was the average starting field position,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: and they just when they stalled out, they had to
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: punt away and you know, they're out gaining by two
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: yards of Bengals and ended up trailing at the half.
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: Then they found a little bit more in the in
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: the second half, and um, of course, the turnovers help
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: when you get some extra possessions. So can they get
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: it established early? Can they do something early? It's been
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: a talking point for a few weeks around here if
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: they can just get in the end zone early. They
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: were a yard away from it on the opening drive last,
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: And I think that's what you know when you analyze
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: football like this, sometimes you sort of get into um,
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: you're looking at things, you're saying, well, it felt like
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: they were struggling in the first half. It felt like
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: boy and I got out of tweets, Oh they're they're
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: playing lousy, what's wrong with this team? Well, it was
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: really a difference than one you hard was the perception
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: of that game, meaning you drive the length of the
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: field in in a beautiful, efficient drive with the first drive.
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: If you score there, if Leonard gains one instead of
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: loses one, you're up seven nothing. All of a sudden,
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: when you get the field goal later on your ten
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: nothing and you feel like you're in control rather than
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: holding your breath in one play away. So I'm not diminishing.
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: In fact, they didn't score in the red zone. They
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: must do that better, because in this league, if you
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: don't get up, if you don't get points out of
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: your opportunities, you leave yourself open to getting beat. But
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: this was not a case of the Jaguars being dysfunctional.
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: For sixty minutes offensively against a lesser team. It was
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: a matter of then struggling on a few plays in
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: the red zone. They had what four hundred in seventy
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: yard for I mean somewhere in the fours and they
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: had I can think of at least three or four
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: long drives and didn't field goal. Well, the bad news
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: is you didn't score touchdowns, But the good news is
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: you were moving efficiently. They were running. They had hundred
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: and thirty yards uh rushing. So I don't think it
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: was as atrocious and offensive effort as some of my
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: email or some of our closet analysts tend to think.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: Is not a bad day at the office. Yeah, so
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: let's not go overboard and think, oh my goodness, there's
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: a lot of deficiencies right now. Offensively, they couldn't do anything.
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: It's a bad they struggled in the red zone, and
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: that was the difference between you feeling great this week
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: and you're being concerned. You gotta get that fixed, but
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: the tools are there to fix it. I'm really impressed
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: with the wide receivers on this team. JP and I
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: know we talked about that. When Chris gets in here,
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: they've gone Yeah, they've gone from being a team that
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: you wondered what was going on a wide receiver in
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: the offseason to now, Um, the bad news is they've
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: taken Chart away for a couple of weeks. Well, the
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: good news is the other day you had two guys
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: step up in his place, and all four of the
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: wide receivers in that game made plays. You remember Cole
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: caught the touchdown, Westbrook obviously had a hundred yard day.
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: Conny sets up the game winning or the game I
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: go ahead touchdown, catches the two point conversion, and even
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: DJ when he shut down, has a play that goes
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: and sets up a field goal, the one where he
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: got tight ropes down the sidelines. Um, I don't know
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: that you can remember that many games since we've been
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: here together, JP, where you had four receivers make big
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: plays and feel like they were all capable of doing
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: that on a given something. You know there they're okay
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: at receiver, and as they get better, I think you're
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: gonna see them. Remember you're only seven games into the scheme.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: You're still playing with young quarterbacks. If they had a
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: tight end, boy wouldn't they be uh efficient in that area?
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: But the receivers I think have a chance to keep
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: taking steps and they feel more reliable than I thought
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: they would during the off season. I'm just trying to
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: think through that that comment you just made there about
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: since we've been here. I've been here since you were
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: here or year before that, And the closest I can
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: come was Cecil Shortz and Justin Blackman. But I can't
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: remember anybody else of that caliber. You know that that
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: that balanced before right now that you feel pretty good about.
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: And I know Chris had a couple of games in
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: a row where he hadn't done much. But you know, again,
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: a lot of what's been going on early there's still
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: a small sample size to seven year. You know, now
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: you're getting to the point where there's a sample size,
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: and early on you gotta remember they're playing with a quarterback.
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: When Gardner first went in, they had no idea what
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: he could do. What he did well, They didn't know
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: what the They were just hoping to put a game
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: plan together that he gets the first downds that for
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: you know, that's realistically when you've got a rookie quarterback,
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: you know anything about. So it's only now that they're
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: getting to a situation where Okay, here's what these guys
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: do well, here's what Chris does well, here's what they
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: do well together. They don't have any uh institutional memory
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: on that yet, so they're just developing that so interesting group,
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: the wide receiver, and I'm curiously what they can do
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: over the next month. The other duo obviously Alan Hearns
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: and Allen Robinson, but there wasn't really a third hurt. Now.
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah at our regular co host teaching every Wednesday on
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Our presented by the Fields Auto Group, is
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: Jaguars wide receiver Chris Conley. Hello, Chris, how are you.
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: I'm doing well, doing really well. Uh you know, I
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: had a wonderful guest for the show today and he
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: just decided to walk out of the building and, uh,
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: you know, not come on the show today. So I
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: apologize if I throw a lot of shade in his
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: direction today. But you know, he he had a great
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: game this weekend, really clutch catch, you know, the only
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: one of you know, the receiving touchdown of the game,
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: and it was just it was a big play, a
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: lot of momentum. You know, I won't name his name,
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: but you know he likes to make acrobatic one handed catches,
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: and you know he's a fan favorite, and you know
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: he might wear the number eighty four, and you know,
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: you know his name might rhyan with right. Okay, but
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: you know he walked out just about like thirty seconds ago.
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: I couldn't I can't put my finger on it. I
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: don't know. You know, at this point I've probably forgotten
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: who it is too. That's okay, maybe another time, maybe
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: maybe the good news here, JP, this is a week
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: where if Chris had come in and said, I'm bringing
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: Chris Connley is my guest, you've been happy with Yeah,
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: because a big game the other day for you. Well,
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: I guess thank you. I appreciate that. I thank you,
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: thank you for justifying this. You know, I'm kind of bumped.
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: I'm a little bummed. We were never bummed to have
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: you here, so we don't need for a little bit. Yeah,
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: I know, this was It was a good getting back
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: on track week for us. I think it was a
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: good getting on back on track week for the whole team.
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: You know, really, uh we we had some good plays
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: made across the board defense with the turnovers, spectacular day offense,
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: starting the game off fast with some rhythm, moving the ball,
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: not necessarily scoring, but moving the ball um down the
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: field and really setting the tempo for the day and
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: overcoming some questionable fuel position starts to really get going
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: eventually and UM and finish finished on the day. UM.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: So it was it was a you know, not necessarily pretty,
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: but it was necessary for us. You know, we were
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: just talking about this, John and about the depth of
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: the receiver room here and comparing it to some past
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: receiver rooms we've had around here at least. And the
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: only kind of do I could think of a while
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: back was and since we've been here eight years or so,
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: UM was blackman with cecil shorts. They both had big years,
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: but it wasn't really a third or fourth guy. And
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: then Alan Robinson and Alan Hearns, but Marquis was hurt
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: back then a lot. Now it's if EJ has covered up,
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: you're here, obviously, d D s here, Keelan Cole can
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: step in and catch a touchdown and contribute. It's a
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: it's a a group that in the training camp we
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: wouldn't really see it yet on the field now you're
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: starting to see across the board guys in this receiver
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: room can make plays. Yeah, you know, I think that
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: guys in this room really had a lot of faith
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: in the talent in the room. We had a lot
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: of faith in the speed in the room. We have
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: a lot of faith in the coach ability of the room.
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: You know, as the season goes on, offenses have to
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: change because defenses pick up keys, they start to double people,
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: they do things differently, and you have to be able
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: to adjust on the fly. And we've really been uh
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: high on the fact that even though it's a young group,
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: these guys can adjust, They can adjust quickly, and they
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: can adjust during a game and still be effective given
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: whatever situation the defense presents us. I thought the other day, Chris,
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: that you're forty seven yard reception obviously a big play
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: because of the length. But when play happened, I thought
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: to myself, this is why you bring a veteran receiver
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: to a team to make a play in that situation
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: when the team absolutely needed it. Um, does that kind
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: of thing go through your mind at all before a
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: play like that or in a moment like that, Like
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: I'm the veteran it this ball comes to me me, I
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: gotta step up? Or are you always just think about
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: making a point. Does that Does that resonate with you?
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: I think a little bit of that resonates with me.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: One of the things that was being set on the
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: sideline for like five to ten minutes before that play
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: actually took place was Keenan mccardo was walking by our
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: bench and saying, Hey, it's gonna come down to us.
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: You know, the game was close and it was pretty tight,
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: and saying, hey, someone's gonna have to make a play.
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: There's gonna be a play that's gonna really get the
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: ball rolling for us, and it's gonna change the momentum
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: of this game. Um. And so that was in the
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: back of my head saying, you know, if there's an opportunity,
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: we gotta make a play. We gotta make a play.
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: Whoever it is in our room has to make a play.
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: It starts and ends with us in the receiver room.
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: And then the other thing that's in my head is,
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: you know, there's not that many opportunities out there. You know,
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: it's um. Some offenses they throw the ball all game,
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: and you know, guys can get seven catches, eight catches,
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: you know, tin targets a game. But that's just not
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: the case here still let the ball pass up and
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: exactly because you know, you you know you might get
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: a couple. I had three, and Um on each of those,
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking, catch this ball, secure it and run and
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: get as many yards as you can because you know,
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: they just you know, sometimes they come in bunches and
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: sometimes there sparse And it seemed on that play as
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: soon as you caught the ball, I know you're always
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: thinking about it, I want to turn this into more,
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: but on that play there was it was a determination
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: to turn it into as much more as you could. Yeah,
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: you know, I just saw the defense in the way
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: that they were shifted. I knew I was singled up
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: everybody else on the other side of the field, and
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: I saw there was a gap. Um was able to
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: squeeze through it. Great ball by Garner. Awesome play call.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: Uh you know we've been that's the perfect look for
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: that play call. You know, there's a really a run
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: pass option, UM, and he pulled it through it. Glad
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: that he did, and we were able to get the
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: ball down into the red zone inside the tent. So
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: you know, it was huge play for us. But in
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: that situation, you know, the only thing on my mind
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: is make it count. And now that we're seven or
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: eight games into gardener Um with some perspective on what
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: he's done, how big of a challenge and a transition
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: Where those first few weeks, when you're trying to get
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: used to a kid who's coming in you've been working
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: with Nick basically, I assume you didn't have much rep
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: or many rest with Gardner during the training camp. How
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: big of a transition with was that for the receivers
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: for maybe those first two or three weeks, just getting
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: used to that and knowing what he was going to do, well,
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: you know it was it was an adjustment for some
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: of us. You know, I hadn't gotten any reps with
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: Gardner until he was in that game. I had thrown
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: with him in warming up, and really that was about it.
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: But up until that point I really thought of it
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: from this angle. I thought that most of the adjusting
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: was gonna take place on his end, and so the
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: way I approached it was saying, Hey, if there's anything
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: that I can do to make this kid feel comfortable,
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: and you know, you saw some of that in the
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: first game with Kansas City. Just give him an outlet
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: when he doesn't know where to go with the baul
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: just be able to dump it off to somebody and
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: make something positive happen. We're able to make some of
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: those plays happen, and then you know, you see the
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: developing relationship with d J Chark and with d DU
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: Westbrook and he begins to get comfortable with people around him.
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: But really that was our our approach to it, was like, Hey,
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: this young guy is going to be thrown into some
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: situations that he might not have been prepared for. But
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: in that in those situations, make up the slack form
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: be there. If the timing is off on something, make
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: it up. If he's not really sure about something, make
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: it happen, make it work anyway. And I think the
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: guys in the receiver room did a really good job
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: of that. And now, um, you know we have all
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: the confidence in the world. And kid Chris Kinnley with
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: a Jaguars wide receiver each Wednesday, I'm Jaguars happy. A yes, John,
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: we should ask him some questions as Keelan Cole, Oh yeah,
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: that's a so he and I hope you're watching Solan
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: you uh the ball that was thrown for a touchdown
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: your way, it looked like he came back to it.
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: Give us an idea of what you saw when the
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: ball was in the end. Well, you know, I was
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: running a corner route, simple high low read off the
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: corners and the inside safety. You know, Cincinnati actually switched
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: switched the playoff, you know, instead of playing man. If
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: it was man to man, we probably would have thrown
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: the ball underneath, but they switched it off. So it
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: was me on a corner with outside leverage. I was
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: able to get around him. And you know me, I
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: really like to cash stuff with one hand, but that
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: was a really tough situation and I had to catch
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: it with two. So you know, next time, I'm hoping
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: that Garner gives me a better ball so I can
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: reach back and catch it like that. But I gotta
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: do what you gotta do. Healing. Should you be playing
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: over Conny? You know what I think I should be.
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: I think I know all the answers to everything, but
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not gonna say that out loud. Um
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: in all seriousness with him, Uh, he seems to have
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: been a guy this year playing as the fourth receiver.
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: You don't get his many reps the other guy, but
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: in a couple of situations. He has come up big
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: when it was needed and made a couple really big
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: place for you guys. Yeah, you know that's the That's
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: a tough position to be in, uh, fourth receiver. I
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: I have been in every position in a receiver room.
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: You know, I've I've played number one, I've been the two,
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: I've been the three, I've been the four, I've been
• 56:26
  Speaker 1: the fifth receiver. And you know, the fourth receiver is
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: a really tough spot because if you're the fifth receiver,
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: you have a larger role on special teams, So you
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: know what your day is gonna look like on Sunday
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: at the fourth receiver. H your job on special teams
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: is a little bit more murky. Your job on offense
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: is even murkier. And you have to be ready to
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: be able to You have to be able to be
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: plugged in in any situation in an offense and really
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: make whatever play. You might not have repped it one
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: time the whole year, but you get put in in
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: a clutch situation and you've got to make the play,
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: and you do that cold. You come off the bench cold,
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: you know, playing what five snaps before that and then
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: having a touchdown and a key moment of a game
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: thrown to you got to make the play and Keeland
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: has done a great job of that this year, and
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: I was gonna see this too. It's always struck me
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: for a receiver, especially that you know you caught a
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: two point conversion the other day. Now you're in the
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: end zone. It's got to be the same sort of
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: feeling as a touchdown. Not at all, not at all,
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: not at all, and but it sort of should. It should,
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: but it doesn't. Two point conversions don't count for anything.
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: You point, they don't count for anything. Count for two points,
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: they don't count for anything. My stat line after the
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: game set three catches for eighty three yards. The two
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: point conversion was a fourth catch. It didn't even count.
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: You don't get it. Don't hurt your average anyway, but
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: it's almost does still be six. Two point conversions don't
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: count for anything. When you go to the bargaining table
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: against the team, you say, hey, I scored uh two
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: point conversion. That doesn't count. They're not gonna pay you
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: for that. So all right, home game Sunday, and it's
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: the last game in this stadium until December. One. Think
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: about that for a while because of the London home
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: game coming up next week, and then buy and then
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: a couple of road games. So, as we said last week,
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: that was the game you're looking at Cincinnati. You had
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: to have that game to get things turned the right way.
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: This one against the Jets is kind of the same field.
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: Right you get back to five, everything's back to where
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: you guys felt it could be. Once again, reiterate the
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: same thing that I said last week. This week is
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: the most important week. This game is the most important game.
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: I sound like a broken record when I say it,
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: but when you live and operate with that mentality in
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: this league, good things happen. And I'm hoping that everyone
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: in the locker room agrees with me on that. If
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: we can really just focus in on this game, make
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: sure that we can get just a little bit better
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: at some of the things from last week. Um, you know,
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: the defense, if they could get a little bit better
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: than four turnovers, that would be great. If the offense,
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: if we can score when we have opportunities in the
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: red zone, especially early. You know this, this oftense scored
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: points last week, but if we can get some of
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: those points on the first half, on the early end
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: of the game, that can change momentum and help it swing.
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: If we can save some field position, uh and make
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: some more big plays on special teams. You know that
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: that would be big for us this week. So if
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: we can lock in and focus, it'll do us wonders
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: before we have to become worad Warriors've been playing obviously
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: five or six years in this league. The difference in
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: just tone and of the confidence, but situational football that
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: you play the rest of the half, tide zero zero
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: after the first drive doesn't happen or up seven nothing,
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: it's a mammoth change and how you approach the rest
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: of the game right huge. Situational football is so important,
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: and it's one of those things that you really you
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: try to get as much work of it as you
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: can without you know, taking time away from something else
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: that's necessary, but trying to teach guys who haven't necessarily
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: played or been in a lot of those situations for
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: that long, how a game can change with those points.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: And you don't want to get into percentages and say, oh,
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: you know your percentage drops to this, uh if you
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: don't score here. But you know those numbers are real,
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: but you don't want to you don't ever want to
• 1:00:18

  Speaker 1: your defense to pin their ears ears back and go
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: after a quarterback and a secondary to play like that,
• 1:00:33

  Speaker 1: you get to the end of the half and end
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: of the game, in two minute situations, you minimize the
