- 0:29Speaker 1: Leave us a comment and a five star rating. Let's
- 0:32Speaker 1: begin with Monday's Jaguars Happy Our radio show. Pete Prisco,
- 0:36Speaker 1: Tony Boselli and I reviewed the loss to the Atlanta Falcons.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Then later on in the game they showed Brunel and
- 0:44Speaker 1: what was that? One? Was the Falcons as the nineties
- 0:46Speaker 1: six miss field goal? Morten Anderson rewind kind of deal. Okay,
- 0:51Speaker 1: all all right, yeah, then we're back in time. I
- 0:56Speaker 1: think they wish they could go back because that team
- 0:59Speaker 1: would be favorite by a touchdown over this. Oh gosh,
- 1:05Speaker 1: it's bad. It's bad. It's a bad team right now.
- 1:08Speaker 1: I mean, as we, I mean, you know, we the
- 1:10Speaker 1: three of us exchange text messages every week, you know,
- 1:13Speaker 1: in preparation for the show. And my comment was, I
- 1:16Speaker 1: when you just said it, Pete, you know, same story,
- 1:20Speaker 1: different show. I mean, it's just like I mean, at
- 1:24Speaker 1: some point, I mean you could you know what we
- 1:26Speaker 1: have said the last several weeks. It's pretty much the
- 1:28Speaker 1: same thing. Outside of a couple of highlights, you know,
- 1:32Speaker 1: the past. You know, over the last month of where
- 1:34Speaker 1: how the defense has played at a high level at
- 1:36Speaker 1: certain times and for certain games it played great offensively.
- 1:39Speaker 1: We can't score points, um, And Urban's right, there's no
- 1:44Speaker 1: big plays, there's no consistency. Um. A lot was made
- 1:49Speaker 1: up made about it in the week. I think Pete
- 1:51Speaker 1: Urban must have listened to our show because he said,
- 1:53Speaker 1: you know, after a thorough audit of the offense, there
- 1:57Speaker 1: were the offense isn't very creative. I know that probably
- 2:00Speaker 1: put a smile on your face. And the reality is
- 2:06Speaker 1: and then you know, Darryl Bebble came back and saying, well,
- 2:08Speaker 1: creative is when you're moving the ball and scoring points.
- 2:10Speaker 1: I mean, he's right too. It's amazing, you know, I mean, Pete,
- 2:14Speaker 1: think back to Sean McVeigh. He was like the genius, amazing,
- 2:17Speaker 1: creative offensive mind and the reason he was. It's because
- 2:20Speaker 1: he had Todd Gurley, and they can run the ball
- 2:22Speaker 1: as well as anybody a pla acould pass off of it.
- 2:24Speaker 1: You know, when you do certain things well, you can
- 2:26Speaker 1: get creative and can do things, and when you have
- 2:28Speaker 1: players that can make plays and you know, beyond the
- 2:31Speaker 1: xs and oes, you look like a genius as well. Um.
- 2:34Speaker 1: You know, fast forward a few years and the Rams
- 2:37Speaker 1: can't run the ball very as well. They struggle to
- 2:39Speaker 1: score points, you know at times, and they'll have an
- 2:41Speaker 1: effective drop back passing game. You know, all of a sudden,
- 2:44Speaker 1: they're not as creative as they once were. So I
- 2:46Speaker 1: get what Darryl Bebble saying, But the reality is, you
- 2:48Speaker 1: watched this offense and I think, Pete, you and I've
- 2:50Speaker 1: been saying from the beginning. I know I said earlier
- 2:53Speaker 1: when they were you know, holding Trevor back, not wanting
- 2:56Speaker 1: him to run, which they're no longer doing. It doesn't
- 3:00Speaker 1: feel like this offense was designed around Trevor Lawrence, Like,
- 3:05Speaker 1: let's just put this kid in a place where he's
- 3:08Speaker 1: comfortable what he did in college, build on those kind
- 3:11Speaker 1: of concepts, and work towards getting him comfortable in the NFL.
- 3:16Speaker 1: UM like if I asked you, like, what is the
- 3:20Speaker 1: staple of their run game? Like what are the gap
- 3:23Speaker 1: team or his own team? Like what do they do
- 3:26Speaker 1: really well? Like what is their go to you know,
- 3:28Speaker 1: what is their go to consoles? What is what I
- 3:33Speaker 1: mean right now, it's it's his own read is what
- 3:35Speaker 1: they do? I mean that's it. Um So, I mean
- 3:39Speaker 1: we can unpack all that. The bottom lines this team
- 3:41Speaker 1: struggle score points, and the offensive struggling. The quarterback is
- 3:45Speaker 1: inconsistent at time. Yesterday he looked amazing and made some
- 3:47Speaker 1: big time throws. Other times he looks inaccurate. Um. They
- 3:51Speaker 1: can't get in a rhythm. They don't get anything going.
- 3:53Speaker 1: I think the biggest surprise for me, Pe you know,
- 3:56Speaker 1: of this game, I hate to say it. I was
- 3:59Speaker 1: not surprised by the offense. I was not surprised by
- 4:02Speaker 1: us not scoring points. We haven't scored points all year.
- 4:04Speaker 1: Oh that was almost the Banand if they got one,
- 4:06Speaker 1: if they got one more touchdown, lady, that's that's a
- 4:08Speaker 1: great game. Yeah. But what's shocking to me is that
- 4:13Speaker 1: the defense got pushed around by a bad offensive line
- 4:16Speaker 1: who's not physical and gave up a hundred and fifty
- 4:19Speaker 1: plus yards of rushing to a team that averages seven
- 4:23Speaker 1: point eight I mean seventy eight point six yards per game,
- 4:27Speaker 1: which is thirty one in the league and their last
- 4:31Speaker 1: in the league in yards per carry. And they gassed
- 4:34Speaker 1: the Jaguars yesterday and that was that was shocking to me.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy. Our radio Monday airs on Tin tin x
- 4:42Speaker 1: l a M and Jaguars social media channels with a
- 4:45Speaker 1: re air on Tin ten x l AM and ninety
- 4:48Speaker 1: two point five FM and Jacksonville from eight to ten
- 4:51Speaker 1: pm onto Tuesday, and The Urban Meyer Show, head coach
- 4:55Speaker 1: Erman Meyer joined Jeff Lockerman and me to discuss the
- 4:57Speaker 1: Falcons game. Yes, but the big topic of the day
- 5:00Speaker 1: was the college coaching carousel. A couple of premium jobs
- 5:05Speaker 1: were open and his name was rumored to be in
- 5:07Speaker 1: the mix. Urban said, no thanks, He's in this Jaguars
- 5:11Speaker 1: build for the long haul. Let's start though, with all
- 5:15Speaker 1: the big news around college football, and the head coaching
- 5:18Speaker 1: carousel is spinning faster really than ever right now. Some
- 5:22Speaker 1: high profile schools have changed coaches in the last forty
- 5:26Speaker 1: eight hours, and the Urban Meyer name pops up right
- 5:30Speaker 1: or wrong, And in these times it feels like is
- 5:33Speaker 1: that flattering? Is it annoying? Is it distracting? What are
- 5:37Speaker 1: your reactions when you see your name on these lists.
- 5:40Speaker 1: I spent so long at college football that, um, you're
- 5:43Speaker 1: talking about some great places. So when I start getting
- 5:47Speaker 1: text messages or phone calls, you know, of course it's flattering.
- 5:50Speaker 1: You know the respect I have for um that profession.
- 5:53Speaker 1: But I have no interest. I I have a great
- 5:57Speaker 1: relationship with the owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars. I love
- 6:00Speaker 1: the nine oh four area and feel committed to these players.
- 6:03Speaker 1: And I mean this is this Losing stuff will kill you.
- 6:06Speaker 1: I mean it will kill you. But uh, we're all
- 6:09Speaker 1: committed here to turn this thing. And I speak on
- 6:12Speaker 1: behalf of our players are coaching staff, and we are
- 6:14Speaker 1: going to grind and work and work. And you know
- 6:16Speaker 1: the vision of a full Bank t I a bank
- 6:19Speaker 1: stadium and you know, a high flying offense and all
- 6:22Speaker 1: that we have the quarterback. We have to just keep
- 6:25Speaker 1: building and getting better. There's still confidence you can turn
- 6:27Speaker 1: it this season with teams to go. What are we
- 6:30Speaker 1: talking about, man, I mean you see it all the time,
- 6:32Speaker 1: and you know, I know I see Jeff right there.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Not as head. Of course, you can we all beat
- 6:36Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills and play great defense. You know, we
- 6:39Speaker 1: we've had some awful injuries at the fast you know,
- 6:42Speaker 1: our speed at receiver and we and then now our
- 6:44Speaker 1: fast tight ends out and but uh, it's don't don't
- 6:48Speaker 1: tell us how deep the ocean is, because figure out
- 6:50Speaker 1: how to get across it. So we're a My attitude
- 6:53Speaker 1: is great, you know, I just I feel I feel
- 6:55Speaker 1: for our fans, I feel for our former players, I
- 6:57Speaker 1: feel most importantly for our players. Let's go win. Let's
- 7:00Speaker 1: go in and keep fighting and fighting and fighting, and uh, well,
- 7:03Speaker 1: that's what you're gonna get is a fight and urban
- 7:05Speaker 1: the game in the NFL, as you are learning and seeing,
- 7:07Speaker 1: it's it's it's so tight, and any kind of mistake
- 7:11Speaker 1: that you make or things that you might miss certainly
- 7:14Speaker 1: can cost a football team in a big way. This
- 7:17Speaker 1: past game, you had some mental areas that cost your
- 7:19Speaker 1: football team, and when you clean them up obviously will
- 7:22Speaker 1: help in a big fashion. How do you go about
- 7:24Speaker 1: making sure that you can clean them up to where
- 7:27Speaker 1: you can give yourself to the best chance to win
- 7:30Speaker 1: every week? That's the million dollar question. That's a question
- 7:33Speaker 1: that uh, you know, for all of us that's been
- 7:36Speaker 1: in this game forever. Uh. You try to figure out
- 7:39Speaker 1: if it was wearing a Lucky T shirt or screaming
- 7:42Speaker 1: at someone or pull them out of the game. You
- 7:43Speaker 1: do it. But when you think about, first of all,
- 7:46Speaker 1: I I say this weekly, and I'd be transparent with
- 7:50Speaker 1: you if I felt like our locker room wasn't wasn't
- 7:53Speaker 1: all about the right stuff they are. When I see
- 7:55Speaker 1: a mistake, it makes you very angry, but it also
- 7:58Speaker 1: breaks your heart because you know, my gosh, you're just
- 8:00Speaker 1: going as hard as you can. You look up and
- 8:02Speaker 1: I remember looking to say, what you're kid me? You know,
- 8:05Speaker 1: our defense is off the field twice within a five
- 8:07Speaker 1: minute window and you see two two penalties, you know,
- 8:11Speaker 1: and uh or a ron route or a drop pass
- 8:15Speaker 1: or something and and uh. But you know there's one answer, Jeff,
- 8:18Speaker 1: you know what as well as anyone, and it's you know,
- 8:22Speaker 1: elbow grease and go to work. And one of the
- 8:24Speaker 1: great things I think about you talk about a great
- 8:27Speaker 1: locker room is you get really exceptional locker rooms when
- 8:30Speaker 1: you get to the point where the locker room starts
- 8:33Speaker 1: demanding of each other that those corrections are made and
- 8:36Speaker 1: those mistakes are not made. Are you starting to see
- 8:40Speaker 1: signs of that, because obviously this is a locker room
- 8:43Speaker 1: that takes time to build. Not yet, you know, I
- 8:45Speaker 1: see bits and pieces of it because we have some
- 8:48Speaker 1: really good leaders. You know. It was great to have
- 8:50Speaker 1: Lender back, uh, but but not not to the degree
- 8:54Speaker 1: or like you said. You know, that's when I studied
- 8:56Speaker 1: the Patriots for a so long and I even brought
- 8:58Speaker 1: William Guinniston or to talk to our team. I remember
- 9:01Speaker 1: sitting up Mike, Mike rabol Bruski and um Uh Rodney
- 9:07Speaker 1: Harrison back into the day and I and I even
- 9:09Speaker 1: asked Coach Belichick about how do you handle this situation?
- 9:12Speaker 1: Looks at me because I don't have that situation. It
- 9:14Speaker 1: never gets to me, you know, I was like, what
- 9:16Speaker 1: are you talking about? And then I watched practice and
- 9:18Speaker 1: I saw after practice who random meetings, the way it
- 9:21Speaker 1: was done, and and that's where the culture we're trying
- 9:23Speaker 1: to build here and go German Meyer with US Jaguar's
- 9:27Speaker 1: offense last week, there were some positives later in the
- 9:30Speaker 1: game trying to climb back in the thing and just
- 9:33Speaker 1: fell a little bit short in that one. There was
- 9:35Speaker 1: all that talk last week about creativity and there was
- 9:38Speaker 1: some run pass option things that came back in the
- 9:41Speaker 1: game last week. The question for me here is what
- 9:45Speaker 1: is your ideal offense urban and and how do you
- 9:49Speaker 1: build that? Well, as I told, my entire career has been,
- 9:52Speaker 1: what's your offense? Tell me who my quarterback is? You
- 9:55Speaker 1: know what about your defense? Will tell me who our
- 9:57Speaker 1: defensive ends are. You know, I was enamored with the
- 10:00Speaker 1: three four defense, but we were very fortunately kept recruiting
- 10:03Speaker 1: these five star athletes that are four three defensive and
- 10:06Speaker 1: so guess what defense we've played for three You know,
- 10:09Speaker 1: when Dwayne Haskins was a quarterback, we dropped back fifty
- 10:11Speaker 1: times a game and he threw fifty touchdowns in a
- 10:14Speaker 1: very few interceptions. When you know J T. Barrett or
- 10:17Speaker 1: Tebow was your quarterback, You're not gonna do that. You're
- 10:20Speaker 1: gonna run spread option football. So with Trevor Lawrence, you'd
- 10:23Speaker 1: like to see a combination of what a little bit
- 10:25Speaker 1: what you saw. I thought our offense at times looked unstoppable,
- 10:28Speaker 1: you know, if you let him play his game in
- 10:30Speaker 1: the gun. But you also and once again, James Robinsons
- 10:33Speaker 1: is not himself yet, you know, and I love him.
- 10:35Speaker 1: We all love him, he goes, So he's such a
- 10:36Speaker 1: tough guy, but you can see just doesn't have that
- 10:39Speaker 1: second gear, you know, the first gear that that he needs.
- 10:42Speaker 1: But that to answer your question, a combination of both.
- 10:45Speaker 1: And I see teams across the NFL do it. I
- 10:48Speaker 1: know we can do it, and um, we just have
- 10:50Speaker 1: to keep building. The Urban Meyers Show is Tuesday's at
- 10:53Speaker 1: five o'clock on the Jaguars Radio Network. Let's hear from
- 10:56Speaker 1: the quarterback, Trevor Lawrence. Now he spoke with the me
- 11:00Speaker 1: You in his regular Wednesday afternoon press conference, and there
- 11:03Speaker 1: was plenty of discussion this week about the quicker tempo
- 11:06Speaker 1: and the Jags offense last week. Yeah, it helps a
- 11:09Speaker 1: lot when you can play with tempo um. It obviously
- 11:11Speaker 1: slows down the pass for us. You know, guys get
- 11:13Speaker 1: tired eventually, and it just helps us keep the defense
- 11:16Speaker 1: on their heels. It's harder to dial things up when
- 11:18Speaker 1: you're you're playing against the tempo team. You know, you
- 11:20Speaker 1: don't get set, you don't always get your call in,
- 11:22Speaker 1: so a lot of times, you know, you go back
- 11:24Speaker 1: to your basic call or whatever that is. So that helps.
- 11:26Speaker 1: They're a really good defense. So we got our hands
- 11:28Speaker 1: full with that, but we're excited for the challenge. You know.
- 11:30Speaker 1: Obviously we've got a good plan that we we're putting
- 11:32Speaker 1: together a great day to day. Um. But yeah, tempo
- 11:35Speaker 1: was was good for us last week. So we'll keep
- 11:37Speaker 1: you know, expanding on that and um do what we
- 11:39Speaker 1: need to do to put us in the best situation.
- 11:41Speaker 1: When we return, we'll hear from Jaguar's offensive coordinator Darryl Bevil,
- 11:46Speaker 1: plus a look ahead to the Los Angeles Rams all
- 11:49Speaker 1: that after this, Jags fans fill your wallet with one

- 12:38Speaker 1: coordinator Darryl bevil A. Quicker tempo was one talking point
- 12:42Speaker 1: this week. The other the read option game for the
- 12:45Speaker 1: Jaguars quarterback. How does the read option help a play caller? Well,
- 12:49Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of things, you know, to
- 12:50Speaker 1: like about it. It's just just the options that you
- 12:53Speaker 1: have on it. And uh, you know there's you know,
- 12:56Speaker 1: I go back to my Seattle days and we kind
- 12:58Speaker 1: of talked about free yards, you know, where you can
- 13:01Speaker 1: get the quarterback on the edge and you know there's
- 13:03Speaker 1: there's clearer space and um, you know there's you're not
- 13:06Speaker 1: having to make a guy missing the whole, you're not
- 13:08Speaker 1: having the safety to you know, receiver have to come
- 13:10Speaker 1: dig out of safety and make some tough blocks. You
- 13:13Speaker 1: can get it out there in space and some better
- 13:15Speaker 1: things can happen when you're out there. The press conferences
- 13:17Speaker 1: from the entire week available on Jaguars dot com. We
- 13:20Speaker 1: moved now to defense and rookie cornerback Tyson Campbell had
- 13:24Speaker 1: a strong game last week, three tackles, three passes defense,
- 13:28Speaker 1: including his first career interception. He joined me on the
- 13:32Speaker 1: Crown Royal water break this week. Take us through the interception.
- 13:35Speaker 1: You came off your man, you went back and undercut
- 13:37Speaker 1: the route. Go through it. Well, we're just playing COVID
- 13:40Speaker 1: to uh doing my doing my job. Make a shot
- 13:43Speaker 1: reroute Uh to receive what I was in front of
- 13:46Speaker 1: me and makes I did with in depth Uh for
- 13:50Speaker 1: any you know, outbreaking or deep outbreaking routes. Talking about
- 13:54Speaker 1: Tom for the half safety to get over top man.
- 13:57Speaker 1: You know how sawball and our got ball. Yeah, and
- 13:59Speaker 1: this gotta be a great feeling, right, I mean that's
- 14:01Speaker 1: something you look forward to your drafted What am I
- 14:03Speaker 1: gonna get my first interception? Nearly had two of them
- 14:06Speaker 1: in the game. No, you finally got that first one.
- 14:08Speaker 1: What did you do with the ball? Did you take
- 14:09Speaker 1: it to the house with you? Yeah? I took it home. Uh.
- 14:12Speaker 1: You know the equipment guys, you know you know wrote
- 14:15Speaker 1: the date, um wrote interception in my jersey number on it.
- 14:19Speaker 1: So it's pretty special. You know, I got to do
- 14:21Speaker 1: it in front of the home crowd and in front
- 14:23Speaker 1: of my family. But you know, Whiskey Camert with with
- 14:25Speaker 1: the wind though. You know, early in the season there
- 14:27Speaker 1: were a couple of balls that you know, we're kind
- 14:30Speaker 1: of passed you over your head. You had been with
- 14:32Speaker 1: the man and then it felt like as the season
- 14:34Speaker 1: is going on, that's improved for you, your your ball
- 14:38Speaker 1: skills when the balls in the air and in urban
- 14:40Speaker 1: My earlier this week said that something you've been working
- 14:43Speaker 1: on on the practice field. What have you done to
- 14:45Speaker 1: improve with the ball in the air as the season
- 14:48Speaker 1: is going on. I'm staying with the course. Um, just
- 14:51Speaker 1: doing extra stuff at the practice. Um, you know, watching
- 14:54Speaker 1: film and trying to make fine little things I can
- 14:57Speaker 1: get better at. You know. So I think no that
- 15:00Speaker 1: over time, staying consistent with that, uh, just just lead
- 15:03Speaker 1: to better results and having faith to myself, Um, having
- 15:07Speaker 1: faith in God and just trusting The full conversation coming
- 15:11Speaker 1: up Sunday in the Public's Tailgate Show, or check social
- 15:14Speaker 1: media this weekend for the Crown Royal water Break. Let's
- 15:17Speaker 1: wrap this week with Huddle Up with Bucky Brooks. Wednesday afternoon,
- 15:22Speaker 1: As Bucky, John Osher and I looked ahead to the
- 15:24Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams since they put the All Star team together,
- 15:28Speaker 1: Bucky they are over three. Yeah, it hasn't gone according
- 15:31Speaker 1: to script out here in l a UM. They are
- 15:35Speaker 1: not uh necessarily playing great and a lot of their
- 15:37Speaker 1: problems no necessarily to them from all the new faces.
- 15:41Speaker 1: It kind of stands from their style of play right now.
- 15:43Speaker 1: What they have is um kind of the limit. The
- 15:46Speaker 1: way that the quarterback plays UM is great for him,
- 15:50Speaker 1: but it doesn't work for everybody else. This has been
- 15:52Speaker 1: a team that has traditionally been able to run the
- 15:54Speaker 1: football through off play action, have a lot of big
- 15:57Speaker 1: plays off deception in this direction. Matthew Staff for as
- 16:00Speaker 1: a quarterback that is more comfortable in a dropback scenario
- 16:04Speaker 1: where they're kind of spreading it out empty formations and
- 16:06Speaker 1: he's working uh isolation routes in those things. The problem
- 16:11Speaker 1: is their offensive line doesn't protect well in in in
- 16:14Speaker 1: that kind of system, and so what you have is
- 16:17Speaker 1: a very disjointed offense that doesn't look like the offense
- 16:21Speaker 1: that we've seen from the Rams uh for the last
- 16:23Speaker 1: few years, and they're struggling because of it. And the
- 16:26Speaker 1: final part is this is not a very physical team. UH.
- 16:29Speaker 1: The teams that have had the most success against the
- 16:31Speaker 1: Rams of late have been the ones that have sucked
- 16:33Speaker 1: them right in the mouth and they haven't responded well. Now,
- 16:35Speaker 1: I would like to say that Jacksonville can do that,
- 16:38Speaker 1: but we just haven't seen that when it comes to
- 16:40Speaker 1: a physical running game and a very physical defense. But
- 16:43Speaker 1: the calling car for Rams, you gotta hit the faces
- 16:46Speaker 1: they get up. Yeah, and that's why you know San
- 16:48Speaker 1: Francisco has so much success. They can they can line
- 16:51Speaker 1: up and do that. John against the team like l A.
- 16:53Speaker 1: I'm curious, Bucky, is there any element to this? Um?
- 16:57Speaker 1: You know, you've got a lot of stars, but they
- 17:00Speaker 1: don't strike you as an overly deep team. And I
- 17:03Speaker 1: only see them, you know, and maybe that's what you're
- 17:05Speaker 1: talking about with the physicality. But you've got all these
- 17:08Speaker 1: stars and you wonder after a while if they're drafting
- 17:11Speaker 1: the depth to be a young team that plays the
- 17:14Speaker 1: way they want to play. You know what I'm getting at.
- 17:16Speaker 1: I do know what you're getting at. Uh, depth is
- 17:18Speaker 1: a concern. Uh. Their frontline stars are outstanding though, like
- 17:21Speaker 1: the talent that they have assembled is terrific. The issue
- 17:25Speaker 1: that you have is not only like trying to put
- 17:28Speaker 1: all this together, from a chemistry standpoint to coach in
- 17:30Speaker 1: the locker room. But remember, you have a new defensive
- 17:33Speaker 1: coordinating Ryany Morris, who wasn't UM. He's not necessarily running
- 17:37Speaker 1: the same defense at Brandon Stately's running. You have Sean
- 17:39Speaker 1: McVeigh trying to figure out how to call plays for
- 17:41Speaker 1: a different quarterback than the one that he had for
- 17:43Speaker 1: the previous three or four years in Jerry Goff. All
- 17:46Speaker 1: of those things kind of working together UM has been
- 17:48Speaker 1: a challenge, and it's been a challenge as the tape
- 17:51Speaker 1: has circulated around the league. The first four or five
- 17:54Speaker 1: weeks of the season, it was great because no one
- 17:56Speaker 1: has seen the Rams operate like this, But now the
- 17:59Speaker 1: tapes are lads. People see how defensive coordinators are having
- 18:02Speaker 1: success against them. They put those same game plans to
- 18:05Speaker 1: see if Sean McVeigh has an answer, and they have it.
- 18:08Speaker 1: And so it's one of those things that will be
- 18:10Speaker 1: interesting to see on Sunday. What kind of game plan
- 18:13Speaker 1: do the Jaguars put together on offense and on defense
- 18:17Speaker 1: to take advantage of some of the vulnerabilities that this
- 18:19Speaker 1: team is shown on both sides of the ball. So
- 18:22Speaker 1: UH coach Bucky Brooks defensive coordinator Bucky Brooks shot Griffins
- 18:27Speaker 1: on the injury reports still at least through the day
- 18:30Speaker 1: to not practiced today. How are you covering Cooper Cup? Who?
- 18:35Speaker 1: That's a tough one. It's a tough one because, uh,
- 18:38Speaker 1: Cooper Cup is Matthew Stafford's go to receiver. And then
- 18:41Speaker 1: the thing about it is he can have a ton
- 18:44Speaker 1: of catches but not have a major impact on the game.
- 18:48Speaker 1: The other guys Van Jefferson, Odell Beckham Jr. They tend
- 18:52Speaker 1: to have a greater impact in terms of delivering big plays.
- 18:55Speaker 1: So what you have to figure out one when you're
- 18:57Speaker 1: the Jaguars. Okay, what are you living to live with?
- 19:00Speaker 1: Are you willing to live with Cooper Cup having ten
- 19:01Speaker 1: catches for maybe a hundred and ten yards but no touchdowns?
- 19:05Speaker 1: Or are you willing to really double team him take
- 19:08Speaker 1: him away? But you may give up a big play
- 19:10Speaker 1: to Odell Beckham Jr. Or Van Jefferson or Tyler Higbee.
- 19:13Speaker 1: That is the big thing. From philosophical standpoint, Well, Matthew
- 19:17Speaker 1: Stafford has struggled with He has been good with the
- 19:19Speaker 1: blitz of late, but he also hasn't been good When
- 19:21Speaker 1: you sit back and make him throw into coverage because
- 19:24Speaker 1: he's big play hunting. He wants to let the ball
- 19:27Speaker 1: go and fly down the field, and when you take
- 19:30Speaker 1: that away, he is struggled being disciplined enough to take
- 19:32Speaker 1: the checkdown. I think you have to have a little
- 19:34Speaker 1: of a ride in the game plan and kind of
- 19:36Speaker 1: see which Matthew Stafford shows up on game day. Huddle
- 19:38Speaker 1: Up with Bucky Brooks airs Wednesday at four thirty on
