- 1:10Speaker 1: It's Part two. Part one featured a big rally for
- 1:13Speaker 1: the Jags the tie the game thirty thirty back in
- 1:16Speaker 1: week two, but the late field goal for the Titans
- 1:17Speaker 1: won that one and since then these franchises have gone
- 1:21Speaker 1: in opposite directions. The Jaguars lost not only that one,
- 1:25Speaker 1: but the next ten straight the Laws. The losing streak continues.
- 1:29Speaker 1: The Titans are eight and four there in first place
- 1:31Speaker 1: in the division, with hopes and dreams of a playoff
- 1:36Speaker 1: run here in December. It's two different organizations right now,
- 1:41Speaker 1: well certainly, and I think I think Mike Rabel and
- 1:45Speaker 1: John Robinson have done a really good job in Tennessee
- 1:48Speaker 1: with that football team because they have a great back
- 1:52Speaker 1: and they're really leaning on the great back for them
- 1:55Speaker 1: to be competitive. You know, their defense is not great,
- 1:58Speaker 1: and I think the Jaguars ought to be able to
- 2:00Speaker 1: gore some points on them. I mean, look at what
- 2:01Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns were able to do last week. So
- 2:03Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a good match up. A
- 2:05Speaker 1: lot of people around the nation and fans of football
- 2:09Speaker 1: are predicting that the Tennessee Titans are gonna walk all
- 2:12Speaker 1: over the Jaguars, and I just don't see it. I
- 2:15Speaker 1: think this is gonna be a very competitive game and
- 2:18Speaker 1: I think it will come down to the wire. So
- 2:21Speaker 1: I I like that we're doing. We've We've had a
- 2:23Speaker 1: few of those feelings lately, but just unable to finish them.
- 2:27Speaker 1: Let's start, though, with the Derrick Henry conversation, because that's
- 2:31Speaker 1: where it really begins for the Tennessee Titans. He's the
- 2:35Speaker 1: leading rusher in the NFL this year, the most carries,
- 2:38Speaker 1: the most yard edge, the second most rushing touchdowns, and
- 2:42Speaker 1: back in Week two the Jags did a pretty good
- 2:44Speaker 1: job of bottling him up, only three point four yards
- 2:47Speaker 1: per carry. That was in the early part of the season,
- 2:50Speaker 1: of course, when the Jaguars are really focused on stopping
- 2:52Speaker 1: the run after everything that had happened in the season
- 2:55Speaker 1: before against the run. For this defense, well, we all
- 2:59Speaker 1: know the history Derrick Henry has against the Jaguars organization
- 3:03Speaker 1: with stiff arms and long runs and Todd wash. Today,
- 3:07Speaker 1: Jaguars defensive coordinator said, that is in the practice plan
- 3:10Speaker 1: this week. He's got a hell of a stiff arm,
- 3:13Speaker 1: and we we work drill specifically obviously um this week
- 3:18Speaker 1: when we go against Derek every every time we play him,
- 3:21Speaker 1: so his stiff arm is something that we work on
- 3:24Speaker 1: each week when we play him. All right, eyes to thighs,
- 3:28Speaker 1: he said a little bit later in the press conference today,
- 3:31Speaker 1: that's really the plan you don't want to go high
- 3:33Speaker 1: on this guy because he's gonna swatch you away. Well,
- 3:38Speaker 1: I mean, I don't. I wouldn't say that. I think
- 3:40Speaker 1: he just you have to have a tackling plan and
- 3:42Speaker 1: depends on who you are jp if if you're a quarterback,
- 3:46Speaker 1: then obviously you don't want to take him up high
- 3:48Speaker 1: because he's a two fifty pound back and it's just
- 3:50Speaker 1: very rare to see a running back in the National
- 3:54Speaker 1: Football League of that side. And Todd's talking about how
- 3:58Speaker 1: they have drills that are cific to the stiff arm,
- 4:02Speaker 1: and and you gotta have him because he does. He's
- 4:04Speaker 1: got a great stiff arm and and the and the
- 4:06Speaker 1: drills for the stiff arm are are kind of two
- 4:08Speaker 1: different ways in which you work on it, and that
- 4:11Speaker 1: you literally lift the arm up as he's coming out
- 4:15Speaker 1: with it, or you chop your arm down on it
- 4:19Speaker 1: in a chopping motion to knock at all. And and
- 4:22Speaker 1: that's not easy to do because he's really good. He's
- 4:24Speaker 1: really long, and a lot of times when you're trying
- 4:26Speaker 1: to do that, you're not even reaching him yet. And
- 4:29Speaker 1: that's why his stiff arm is so good because of
- 4:31Speaker 1: his length. But he's a great back. And you know,
- 4:34Speaker 1: if I think the circumstances also dictate where you're gonna
- 4:38Speaker 1: tackle him if you're a defensive tackle or if I'm
- 4:41Speaker 1: a defensive end, I'm tackling Derrick Henry. If I'm coming
- 4:44Speaker 1: from the front, I'm probably gonna go low. But if
- 4:47Speaker 1: I'm coming from the side, I'm staying high because I'm
- 4:50Speaker 1: big enough to be able to bring him down. And
- 4:52Speaker 1: I'm also going for that ball. And he is great
- 4:56Speaker 1: with ball security, but he's not immune. He had his
- 4:59Speaker 1: first fumble lost this past week against the Cleveland Browns,
- 5:03Speaker 1: and hopefully the Jaguars can find a way to get
- 5:06Speaker 1: him to call for another one up. But the guy's
- 5:08Speaker 1: a fantastic back JP and and you better be ready.
- 5:12Speaker 1: I mean nine games against the Jaguars that he's played,
- 5:14Speaker 1: and the I would say the first five, four or
- 5:18Speaker 1: five of those games that he's played, he was kind
- 5:20Speaker 1: of in a in a split time role at running back.
- 5:23Speaker 1: So you're talking about nine games with like seven yards rushing.
- 5:27Speaker 1: That's a pretty good number for Derrick Henry, no doubt.
- 5:32Speaker 1: And as you know, you gotta get your shots in
- 5:34Speaker 1: on him early in the play. Obviously, if he gets
- 5:37Speaker 1: rolling and gets outside of contain and out against those
- 5:40Speaker 1: little guys and gets that head of steam going. That's
- 5:43Speaker 1: when he's the freight train outside and really hard to handle.
- 5:46Speaker 1: So you gotta keep him contained. So the edge to
- 5:48Speaker 1: your point, the defensive line, they've got to hold that
- 5:52Speaker 1: edge this week can keep him on the interior. Is
- 5:54Speaker 1: that pretty accurate assessment? Well, the Tygers do a great
- 5:58Speaker 1: job and that first of all, every back once they
- 6:00Speaker 1: get rolling, is really that much tougher. And now I
- 6:03Speaker 1: think it's it's it's probably more so the case for
- 6:06Speaker 1: Derrick Henry because you're talking about two hundred fifty pounds.
- 6:08Speaker 1: It gets rolling and all of a sudden, when you're
- 6:10Speaker 1: a ninety found defensive back and you're starting to think about,
- 6:14Speaker 1: oh my goodness, how am I going to tackle? There's
- 6:15Speaker 1: a guy that's coming at me. There's a little bit
- 6:17Speaker 1: of a factor there to where you you sit there
- 6:19Speaker 1: and go, um do I want to take the punishment?
- 6:22Speaker 1: So defensive backs don't do very well. And the Tennessee
- 6:24Speaker 1: Titans like to get him outside. He's the great back
- 6:27Speaker 1: at bouncing to the outside. They attack the outside. The
- 6:32Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans have excellent blocking tight ends that allow them
- 6:36Speaker 1: to do that to get outside. But you're right when
- 6:40Speaker 1: when he gets rolling like he did against the Jaguars
- 6:42Speaker 1: a few years ago, with this ninety nine year old
- 6:44Speaker 1: run that we're looking at, I mean, it was I mean,
- 6:46Speaker 1: I hate to say this because it was against the Jaguars,
- 6:48Speaker 1: but I mean it was one of the greatest runs
- 6:49Speaker 1: in NFL history and because of the individual effort of
- 6:55Speaker 1: of Derrick Henry JP and I don't want to say
- 6:58Speaker 1: it was a thing of beauty, but I mean it's
- 6:59Speaker 1: right up there with the Marshawn Lynch run. That was
- 7:01Speaker 1: just amazing. No doubt he's He's got a few of
- 7:06Speaker 1: them on his reserve, the big long touchdown runs. And
- 7:10Speaker 1: let's hope that the Jaguars can contain him a bit now.
- 7:12Speaker 1: Of course, when the Titans get rolling, they have the
- 7:15Speaker 1: run game going, but then they play off the run
- 7:17Speaker 1: game as well through the air. And Ryan Tannehill has
- 7:20Speaker 1: put together a really solid season at quarterback for the
- 7:23Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans. Last week three touchdowns when they tried to
- 7:28Speaker 1: rally back. A couple of those were late in the game,
- 7:30Speaker 1: but twenty six touchdowns for the season, five interceptions. He's
- 7:34Speaker 1: been over a hundred rating in eight games this year
- 7:37Speaker 1: log so they have the weapons outside. When John O.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Smith the tied end is healthy, he's among the best
- 7:42Speaker 1: in the league and they can do some damage when
- 7:45Speaker 1: they are balanced out on offense. Yeah, because they have
- 7:50Speaker 1: their playmakers that all the positions and first and foremost
- 7:53Speaker 1: give Bryan Tannehill credit. I mean, here was a guy
- 7:56Speaker 1: that was considered a throwaway quarterback by the Miami to
- 7:59Speaker 1: off ends and then he kind of gets reborn in Tennessee.
- 8:03Speaker 1: And it helps to be reborn when you've got a
- 8:05Speaker 1: running back like Derrick Henry, So that doesn't hurt. But
- 8:08Speaker 1: the fact of the matter is that Ryan Tannehill on
- 8:11Speaker 1: his own court, is still a very good pastor and
- 8:13Speaker 1: he's he's a sixth rated pass from the National Football
- 8:15Speaker 1: League this year. When you look at his numbers against
- 8:18Speaker 1: the Jaguars historically, he completes almost seventy of his passes. Uh.
- 8:22Speaker 1: He's an outstanding quarterback that does a great job at
- 8:25Speaker 1: distributing the ball and he has a little bit of
- 8:27Speaker 1: an X factor too that he has mobility and that's
- 8:30Speaker 1: something that a lot of quarterbacks don't have, but he has.
- 8:33Speaker 1: And everybody talks about him being a former wide receiver
- 8:36Speaker 1: and that's great and fine and dandy, and it does
- 8:38Speaker 1: show that he's got some mobility, but he also has
- 8:42Speaker 1: it's not like he is willy nilly when he decides
- 8:44Speaker 1: to run. I mean, he it's a it's a planned
- 8:46Speaker 1: thing where he sees coverage that gives him an opportunity
- 8:50Speaker 1: to find something down the field. So he's a smart quarterback,
- 8:53Speaker 1: you know. And he gives his team the ability to
- 8:56Speaker 1: come back. In some ball games, they scored a lot
- 8:58Speaker 1: of points and nearly came back. Can made the game
- 9:00Speaker 1: somewhat competitive against the Cleveland Browns. I watched the game
- 9:04Speaker 1: last night, and they got it close. It wasn't like
- 9:07Speaker 1: it was in the all of a sudden they were
- 9:08Speaker 1: gonna score and win. But but he closed the gap.
- 9:12Speaker 1: So he's capable and the weapons that he has are
- 9:15Speaker 1: are really good. You're talking about Corey Davis's coming off
- 9:19Speaker 1: a career best game this past week. Now, A J. Brown,
- 9:23Speaker 1: who we think as a marvelous player, and he's big,
- 9:25Speaker 1: and he's fast and can run the go route. He
- 9:28Speaker 1: had two fumbles his past game and he's had some
- 9:30Speaker 1: drops and that's been a big issue with him. And
- 9:33Speaker 1: he's a he's a great vertical threat, I mean a
- 9:36Speaker 1: great vertical threat. And they talked about a big dude.
- 9:39Speaker 1: I mean, I know that the guy in Seattle, his
- 9:41Speaker 1: teammate from college, is a lot bigger and more freakishly big.
- 9:45Speaker 1: But A J. Brown is big in his own right now. Uh,
- 9:49Speaker 1: he's a big cat. Now. The Titans lost Adam Humphreys,
- 9:51Speaker 1: who was kind of their third guy, kind of a
- 9:53Speaker 1: possession type of receiver. So that's gonna hurt a little bit.
- 9:57Speaker 1: But they've got some other guys that are gonna be
- 9:58Speaker 1: able to step up. But the two big big dogs
- 10:01Speaker 1: or a J. Brown, John HU Smith or a J.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Brown and Corey Davison. And when you had a John U.
- 10:07Speaker 1: Smith and there, if he's healthy, that's a dangerous combination
- 10:10Speaker 1: when you have all that behind, or when the passing
- 10:14Speaker 1: game with Derrick Henry and a running game. We're anxiously
- 10:18Speaker 1: awaiting the injury report today. John NU Smith was limited
- 10:21Speaker 1: yesterday with a knee issue, and Todd Wash said today
- 10:25Speaker 1: he was really looking at that just to see, but
- 10:28Speaker 1: has not come out officially yet. We'll keep you posted
- 10:31Speaker 1: if it pops up here in the next hour or so.
- 10:33Speaker 1: On Jaguar's Happy Hour about the Jags defense logs last week,
- 10:38Speaker 1: it felt like they played a really solid game. I know,
- 10:41Speaker 1: the big three in Minnesota got their numbers at the
- 10:44Speaker 1: end of the day. Dalvin Cook took thirty two carries
- 10:48Speaker 1: to get to his total last week. And you had
- 10:51Speaker 1: some some solid play on the defensive line from guys
- 10:54Speaker 1: that in reality are probably rotational type players. But Dwan
- 10:59Speaker 1: Smooth his best game in a long time, a couple
- 11:01Speaker 1: of sacks, and you know, considering the personnel that's on
- 11:06Speaker 1: the field on defense right now, I thought they played
- 11:08Speaker 1: a pretty good game last week. Now the challenge, of
- 11:10Speaker 1: course this week against Tennessee, sure it's it's a bigger
- 11:14Speaker 1: challenge in Minnesota's doesn't have a strong offensive line, so
- 11:17Speaker 1: you expected the Jaguars defensive line to play a little
- 11:19Speaker 1: bit better, and they did. But I think they found
- 11:23Speaker 1: some stability. And when I say stability, I'm talking stability
- 11:25Speaker 1: for the Jaguars, and that Daniel Equality and cost In
- 11:29Speaker 1: in the middle at the defensive tackle spots, and then
- 11:32Speaker 1: as the defensive vents Adam Got that's playing the strong
- 11:35Speaker 1: side and then Smoot playing kind of the open side
- 11:37Speaker 1: or what we call the eagle nd. And I think
- 11:40Speaker 1: it's a good combination. I think it gives you your
- 11:42Speaker 1: best chance to win. And are these rotational type guys
- 11:45Speaker 1: as far as on any other roster they backup. So
- 11:48Speaker 1: I mean, you could make the argument that most teams
- 11:50Speaker 1: would probably replace two of those guys. And I'm not
- 11:53Speaker 1: saying that any particular two that it is. I'm just
- 11:55Speaker 1: saying take your pick out of the two, because you'd
- 11:57Speaker 1: like to upgrade somewhere and have a dom and a player.
- 12:00Speaker 1: But I think they're solid. They do their job, they
- 12:03Speaker 1: don't get out of their gap, and then that gives
- 12:05Speaker 1: you a chance. And I think it reflects also in
- 12:07Speaker 1: the linebacker play. If you look at the performance of
- 12:09Speaker 1: Joe Schobert, Miles Jack last week, which is pretty dog
- 12:12Speaker 1: gone good, and especially Joe Schobert, it was doing a
- 12:15Speaker 1: large part of the performance of the defensive line. They
- 12:18Speaker 1: had a really good outing. I thought, can they build
- 12:20Speaker 1: on that this week against Tennessee Titans. Offensive line we'll see,
- 12:24Speaker 1: But the Tennessee Titans, this is not the same offensive
- 12:27Speaker 1: line that we've been talking about for the last couple
- 12:29Speaker 1: of years, going, oh my goodness, they're so good. And
- 12:32Speaker 1: Taylor Lawan is the best left tackle will tell Lawan
- 12:35Speaker 1: is out with a significant knee entry and Quisinberry is
- 12:39Speaker 1: playing left tackle, a kind of a journeyman player that
- 12:42Speaker 1: overcame cancer. And they've got some other players in there
- 12:45Speaker 1: that are that are good, but they're not the kind
- 12:48Speaker 1: of offensive line that strikes fear in anybody's eyes. A
- 12:53Speaker 1: lot of changes up front there in Tennessee, for sure,
- 12:55Speaker 1: and we'll see if the Jaguars defense can take advantage
- 12:59Speaker 1: this week and get something done up front against this
- 13:02Speaker 1: Titans offense. We've got plenty more ahead on Jaguar's Happy Hour,
- 13:06Speaker 1: including Mike Glennan getting a third start, and what's up
- 13:11Speaker 1: with Gardner Minshew. We'll hear about that coming up for thirty.
- 13:14Speaker 1: Tony Vaselli joining us on the program. We'll go around
- 13:17Speaker 1: the National Football League a little later as well, the
- 13:20Speaker 1: Doug Moron Show. At five o'clock. We're off and running.

- 17:24Speaker 1: the consistency of that position is UH really important. It's
- 17:29Speaker 1: uh critical to have success. Uh you have to have
- 17:33Speaker 1: consistency of that position. Talking to one guy speaking the
- 17:36Speaker 1: same language, cater into their strengths, and we're changing weekend
- 17:39Speaker 1: and week out. Uh, it's hard to get a gauge
- 17:41Speaker 1: on what they like, what they're comfortable with. UM, so
- 17:45Speaker 1: that's the most difficult thing. So you know, I think
- 17:47Speaker 1: we're we're dealing with three great kids, UH, guys that
- 17:50Speaker 1: want to be great. They work extremely hard. But as
- 17:53Speaker 1: a play caller, get to know what they like and
- 17:54Speaker 1: them getting to know me a little bit. That's the
- 17:57Speaker 1: biggest challenge that we have. And and now us will
- 18:00Speaker 1: be the third week with Mike hopefully, Uh, I'm starting
- 18:03Speaker 1: getting his head a little bit and he understands uh
- 18:06Speaker 1: where we're going and what I what I think he likes.
- 18:08Speaker 1: So it'll hopefully be beneficial. Defensive coordinator yesterday, discussing the
- 18:17Speaker 1: quarterback position and welcome back to Jaguars Happy Hour j P.
- 18:21Speaker 1: Shadrick with Jeff Loghuman Tony Boselli coming up in about
- 18:25Speaker 1: twelve minutes at four or thirty the Doug Brones Show
- 18:28Speaker 1: at five o'clock. And yeah, he said it there, Consistency
- 18:32Speaker 1: is keith the quarterback position. He can't just keep changing
- 18:36Speaker 1: starting quarterbacks every week just because and expect results. You know,
- 18:42Speaker 1: having a consistent starter week to week helps with the communication,
- 18:47Speaker 1: the play calling and all of the above. As he
- 18:49Speaker 1: said there, that's a lot of quarterbacks in the last
- 18:51Speaker 1: three years for him, by the way logs. Yeah, a
- 18:55Speaker 1: little bit of a Quartermack quarterback nightmare for Jay Gruten,
- 18:59Speaker 1: no doubt. And I also enjoyed listening to his comments
- 19:02Speaker 1: today when he talked about Alex Smith and and how
- 19:06Speaker 1: he just thought he isn't such an amazing person and
- 19:09Speaker 1: what a great comeback that he's had this year for
- 19:11Speaker 1: the Washington football team, because what Alex Smith went through
- 19:15Speaker 1: was obviously when Jay Gruden was their head coach. So
- 19:19Speaker 1: I know that he's got a uh, certainly he's a
- 19:22Speaker 1: rooting interest with Alex Smith and the Washington football team. There,
- 19:25Speaker 1: I mean even though he lost his job from from
- 19:27Speaker 1: the team, But you can really tell that he's got
- 19:31Speaker 1: an affinity for for Alex and and how how and
- 19:34Speaker 1: I think he said at what at one point today
- 19:36Speaker 1: said you know, he goes, I couldn't have come back
- 19:37Speaker 1: from what Alex did, which says a lot and uh
- 19:41Speaker 1: but pretty cool. But yeah, I mean he he's had
- 19:43Speaker 1: a lot of quarterbacks and that's just the way it is.
- 19:45Speaker 1: And and could you change quarterbacks every week? JP? You
- 19:48Speaker 1: actually could? I mean, and I don't think it's gonna
- 19:50Speaker 1: give you much a chance to win any football game,
- 19:52Speaker 1: but you could change him every week just because you
- 19:54Speaker 1: can do it. But this week it's gonna be Mike
- 19:57Speaker 1: Lennon again. And uh, I find it interesting that that
- 20:02Speaker 1: Gardner Mishew comes out and talks about how he was
- 20:04Speaker 1: begging to come to be back in the lineup and
- 20:07Speaker 1: play and all that kind of stuff. Yet when you
- 20:10Speaker 1: hear the coaches talk, especially Jay Gruden, he pretty much
- 20:15Speaker 1: said that Gardner Minshew have from talking to whoever, he
- 20:20Speaker 1: has not thrown the ball as much as he needs
- 20:22Speaker 1: to to show that he is ready to be back.
- 20:24Speaker 1: So I'm not quite understanding how you can say that
- 20:29Speaker 1: you're begging to be playing again, but at the same token,
- 20:34Speaker 1: you're not taking the reps required to play. So I'm
- 20:38Speaker 1: a little confused with that. But anyway, I'm glad to
- 20:41Speaker 1: see that Mike Lennon is going to get another opportunity.
- 20:44Speaker 1: And for the same reason that when Jake Luton faced
- 20:47Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers, I wanted to see him play the
- 20:49Speaker 1: next week because I wanted to see how he would
- 20:51Speaker 1: bounce back. I want to see how Mike Lennon bounces
- 20:54Speaker 1: back against the Minnesota Vikings team that he didn't have
- 20:57Speaker 1: a great performance. He had two interceptions and he also
- 21:00Speaker 1: had the fumble. And when you commit three turnovers yourself
- 21:04Speaker 1: and then you put the Conley one in there, you
- 21:06Speaker 1: don't have much of a chance to win. Because the
- 21:08Speaker 1: reality is is that this football team has been in
- 21:12Speaker 1: many games, and it's been in the games to where
- 21:15Speaker 1: their turnover differential has been favorable, and when it's not
- 21:19Speaker 1: been favorable, they haven't been in games. And well, in fact,
- 21:22Speaker 1: they've bill in the past game against the Minnesota Vikings,
- 21:26Speaker 1: but the outcome certainly hasn't been favorable. You know. The
- 21:29Speaker 1: The amazing thing to JP the Jaguars every game this year,
- 21:34Speaker 1: they've only had one where they've been plus two and
- 21:36Speaker 1: turnover differential, and that was the very first one against Colet.
- 21:40Speaker 1: About that, Yeah, Philip rivers through a couple in that
- 21:42Speaker 1: game in week one. It seems like an eternity ago
- 21:45Speaker 1: because it was you mentioned is it just me? Are
- 21:50Speaker 1: you are you feeling this vibe from Gardner Minshill and
- 21:53Speaker 1: it's it's kind of weird, right, I mean to where
- 21:56Speaker 1: well he's saying he's you know, he's begging to play,
- 21:58Speaker 1: but then he's not taking the rep I mean, I
- 22:00Speaker 1: don't get that. Well, let's hear from Doug Moron on
- 22:04Speaker 1: it first, and the head coach this week was asked
- 22:07Speaker 1: about that and gardnerment Show's comments that he was begging
- 22:10Speaker 1: to get back in and all the above, and Doug
- 22:13Speaker 1: Marone here's what he had to say. Let's just put
- 22:16Speaker 1: it that way. I think you get a little bit
- 22:18Speaker 1: worried if it's the other way. You know what I'm saying,
- 22:20Speaker 1: where someone doesn't want to get out there, Uh, he's
- 22:23Speaker 1: not a competitor. He's comfortable in his role of maybe
- 22:29Speaker 1: not playing. So um, you know, you can have all
- 22:32Speaker 1: these emotions as a player and sometimes on the outside,
- 22:35Speaker 1: you'll look at it and say, oh man, he must
- 22:37Speaker 1: be really upset that he's not doing this or that
- 22:40Speaker 1: or you know, but you know, at the end of
- 22:42Speaker 1: the day, that's not how they are around their teammates
- 22:44Speaker 1: and how they practice and they're still working to get
- 22:46Speaker 1: better and do it. So um, and there's some guys
- 22:49Speaker 1: that you would know that you know what I'm saying.
- 22:50Speaker 1: I mean, you can get a sense to that. But
- 22:51Speaker 1: we don't have that issue at all. So you know,
- 22:54Speaker 1: we're all trying to communicate, we're all trying to work
- 22:56Speaker 1: through things. Um, you know, journeys tough time. So we're
- 22:59Speaker 1: just gonna keep working on these guys and keeople keep
- 23:02Speaker 1: getting better. So let's Doug Maron's take on it. Lugs.
- 23:06Speaker 1: And you know, there's only so many reps to go
- 23:09Speaker 1: around on the practice field during the regular season and
- 23:12Speaker 1: an actual practice action, right, I mean, you're on the
- 23:15Speaker 1: scout team and the starter is getting the reps. That's
- 23:18Speaker 1: kind of how that works. So you know, yeah, you
- 23:21Speaker 1: maybe you want to be out there, but this is
- 23:24Speaker 1: this is the NFL, this is real life. You don't
- 23:26Speaker 1: always get what you want because the other guy's starting.
- 23:29Speaker 1: And that's how he's working right now. No, I hear you,
- 23:33Speaker 1: But I mean, I just kinda I kind of got
- 23:35Speaker 1: the feeling from listening to Jay Gruden's comments that um
- 23:41Speaker 1: that it was Gardner, that Gardner didn't want to take
- 23:44Speaker 1: the reps or didn't want to make as many throws.
- 23:46Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, maybe I'm I'm misunderstanding that, but
- 23:51Speaker 1: I don't know. I just I just think that's kind
- 23:53Speaker 1: of odd that the player is gonna say, hey, I'm
- 23:56Speaker 1: begging to play, but but yet the way that he's
- 24:00Speaker 1: talking is that the reps that he was offered he
- 24:03Speaker 1: didn't want to pay. At least that's the impression I'm
- 24:06Speaker 1: getting JP. And maybe I'm reading it wrong. I don't know,
- 24:09Speaker 1: but it's kind of odd to me. I I just think,
- 24:14Speaker 1: and this is this is me thinking out loud, but
- 24:17Speaker 1: I think we're talking about a lot of nothing because
- 24:21Speaker 1: Mike Glennon is the starting quarterback and I think he's
- 24:23Speaker 1: going to be the starter until the wheels fall off
- 24:27Speaker 1: of this thing. And that's my thought about it. So
- 24:30Speaker 1: we're talking about the back end. Totally get what you're saying,
- 24:36Speaker 1: and the reality is that he's going to be the
- 24:39Speaker 1: starter as long as he plays okay, But in the
- 24:43Speaker 1: bigger picture of that, even but he didn't play, Okay,
- 24:46Speaker 1: it doesn't matter he plays, it doesn't matter. Yeah, that's
- 24:51Speaker 1: where they are. The future. The future at quarterback is
- 24:56Speaker 1: somewhere else. And you can say it's in the draft,
- 25:00Speaker 1: you can say that it's in free agency, wherever it
- 25:04Speaker 1: may be. But the future of the quarterback room for
- 25:07Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars is not anywhere even remotely close to
- 25:12Speaker 1: where it is right now. It's going to be vastly
- 25:14Speaker 1: different in the future. And this football team needs to
- 25:18Speaker 1: find a quarterback talent that it can win with and
- 25:21Speaker 1: and and be consistent with. And that's you know, you
- 25:24Speaker 1: look back at the history of the Jaguars organization and
- 25:29Speaker 1: to look at the number of swings that you've taken
- 25:32Speaker 1: at the quarterback position. There's not a lot. I mean,
- 25:36Speaker 1: you've taken some swings in sixth round, in fourth round
- 25:39Speaker 1: and and such. But this team, besides Mark Brunell, has
- 25:43Speaker 1: not had a franchise type guy. And you've drafted three
- 25:47Speaker 1: in the first round and you didn't hit on any
- 25:49Speaker 1: of the three, which is surprising because given twenty six years,
- 25:53Speaker 1: if you've tried it three times and you're not doing
- 25:55Speaker 1: you're not hitting it. You would think that there would
- 25:58Speaker 1: be a lot more than three because if you're gonna
- 26:01Speaker 1: have a chance to win, and we've kind of talked
- 26:03Speaker 1: about this, gosh so many different times. It kind of
- 26:06Speaker 1: gets to be repetitive and my numbing, but the reality
- 26:09Speaker 1: is you have to keep trying, and it's not to
- 26:13Speaker 1: where you can't win without a quarterback, but it gives
- 26:15Speaker 1: you the best chance to win year in the year
- 26:18Speaker 1: out consistently if you can find the guy. And this
- 26:21Speaker 1: franchise has passed up the opportunity recently under general manager
- 26:26Speaker 1: Dave Caldwell, when you could have acknowledged that Blake Bortles
- 26:30Speaker 1: was not the guy and could have taken a swing
- 26:32Speaker 1: at one of these other guys that we're seeing on
- 26:34Speaker 1: a regular basis now, either DeShawn Watson or Patrick Mahomes
- 26:38Speaker 1: or I mean whoever. I mean, you just it was
- 26:42Speaker 1: just shortsighted, I thought, in the recent history of this
- 26:44Speaker 1: franchise too, to not admit that we don't you don't
- 26:47Speaker 1: have the guy, and then to continue to try to
- 26:50Speaker 1: find a guy. Well, we're If you you think we're
- 26:54Speaker 1: talking a lot about it, now, just wait until February
- 26:58Speaker 1: at March at a will leading into the draft, because
- 27:01Speaker 1: that's all the conversation will be with the Jacksonville Jaguars now.
- 27:06Speaker 1: Matter who the quarterback is next year, it's a pretty
- 27:09Speaker 1: good feeling that the running back behind him will be
- 27:12Speaker 1: James Robinson. He's Fenn had a fantastic season. Of course,
- 27:16Speaker 1: it just continues to build and build and hopefully he
- 27:19Speaker 1: gets some of that Pro Bowl momentum. It'll be tough
- 27:22Speaker 1: and undrafted rookie on a one and eleven football team,
- 27:24Speaker 1: but his four point six yard per carry average is
- 27:29Speaker 1: considering that he doesn't have long breakaway runs, he doesn't
- 27:34Speaker 1: lose yardage much either, so he is as consistent as
- 27:38Speaker 1: can be. And he is he is the future of
- 27:42Speaker 1: the running back position here. Well, he's part of it.
- 27:47Speaker 1: You know when I say he's part of it, Look,
- 27:49Speaker 1: James Robinson is amazing. I mean, thirty two yards away
- 27:52Speaker 1: from from hitting a thousand yards and he's on pace
- 27:56Speaker 1: to do or to have the best season by an
- 28:00Speaker 1: undrafted rookies, surpassing Philip Lindsay and and others. I mean,
- 28:05Speaker 1: that's an amazing job. And with two d and fifty
- 28:07Speaker 1: five yards, he's gonna tie Fred Taylor for the Jaguars
- 28:10Speaker 1: rookie Russian record. I mean, those are all incredible things,
- 28:13Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna surpass Fred Taylor's record and
- 28:17Speaker 1: in the future. JP though this year he has carried
- 28:20Speaker 1: the load by himself and you really haven't had any
- 28:24Speaker 1: debt And that's kind of been an issue recently with
- 28:27Speaker 1: the Jaguars running back position period. I mean, when Leonard
- 28:30Speaker 1: Fournette was the guy, he didn't have any depth behind
- 28:32Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette. It was almost as if the position kind
- 28:35Speaker 1: of got ignored or neglected. And James Robinson is the
- 28:38Speaker 1: guy this year, But what do you have behind somebody
- 28:40Speaker 1: that can share the load. I do know this, when
- 28:44Speaker 1: James Robinson leaves the field or he leaves the Jaguars
- 28:47Speaker 1: offensive huddle, there is a significant significant drop in the
- 28:52Speaker 1: performance of other running backs when James is not in there.
- 28:55Speaker 1: And that's not what you want. I mean, look, you
- 28:57Speaker 1: can't have what the Cleveland Browns have not yet. Team
- 29:00Speaker 1: can have that, and I'm not saying that you have
- 29:02Speaker 1: to have that, but you need to have somebody that
- 29:05Speaker 1: you feel good about coming in and not somebody that
- 29:08Speaker 1: every time that somebody is in you're sitting there going
- 29:10Speaker 1: put James Robinson back in because he's so much better.
- 29:14Speaker 1: And you've got to have a guy that you can
- 29:16Speaker 1: you feel good about spelling your main guy or spelling
- 29:20Speaker 1: James Robinson in this case. So in the in the future,
- 29:26Speaker 1: you gotta find you gotta find debt, and you've got
- 29:28Speaker 1: to have more than one guy. And if you don't
- 29:31Speaker 1: have more than one guy at the running back position
- 29:33Speaker 1: when you're when you don't have that guy, and then
- 29:35Speaker 1: you're gonna get exposed. And right now that Jaguars have
- 29:38Speaker 1: one guy from what we've seen, and I think that
- 29:41Speaker 1: if they had some other people that were that were
- 29:44Speaker 1: really good, then I think that they would certainly be
- 29:46Speaker 1: getting more reps and what we have seen from them
- 29:49Speaker 1: would be better. All right, let's come back. Tony Boselli

- 34:54Speaker 1: pride of the Jaguars left tackle Tony Basselli joins us
- 34:59Speaker 1: on the program. Good afternoon, Tony. What's up? What's up? Fellas?
- 35:05Speaker 1: Did I just hear Doug called ben Bart's John? Did
- 35:09Speaker 1: you say John? That was? That was John? Shipley asked
- 35:13Speaker 1: the question, right, that was like, wow, yeah, but you
- 35:19Speaker 1: could actually call you can actually call ben Bart's Johnny
- 35:23Speaker 1: if you wanted to, because that's the nickname of the
- 35:26Speaker 1: mascot at the small school that he played at Boat.
- 35:30Speaker 1: That's right. I know that I knew that. That's where
- 35:32Speaker 1: I thought maybe he was his nickname or something like that.
- 35:34Speaker 1: That's why I was confused. Yeah, it was interesting. I
- 35:37Speaker 1: mean his thoughts on ben Barts. I mean, uh, and
- 35:42Speaker 1: I know Logs and not you. You don't have talked
- 35:45Speaker 1: about it. I mean he has real I don't. I
- 35:48Speaker 1: guess issues struggles in the past game right now. I
- 35:52Speaker 1: mean as far as pass walking, um, definitely more comfortable
- 35:55Speaker 1: run balking. He's a physical guy. Um, he tried, he
- 35:59Speaker 1: gets after. I like his tenacity, I like his you know, desire,
- 36:03Speaker 1: But boy, he's a liability one on one right now.
- 36:07Speaker 1: You know, when he's in the game, I'm watching him,
- 36:08Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I'm hoping they're slide and left because, um,
- 36:13Speaker 1: a decent pass rusher gives him problems right now. Yeah, Tony,
- 36:19Speaker 1: I think you're dead on. And uh, I think you
- 36:22Speaker 1: could probably say that he got better this pass game
- 36:24Speaker 1: because it was the Minnesota Vikings and they don't have
- 36:27Speaker 1: any great pass rushers number one, but also number two
- 36:31Speaker 1: for the most part of the game. Once he had
- 36:33Speaker 1: to play a lot. Let's when Leonard went out and
- 36:35Speaker 1: Shatley moved the center. Then all of a sudden, ben
- 36:38Speaker 1: Barts didn't have a lot of one on ones to
- 36:42Speaker 1: where he had to block a guy in a in
- 36:44Speaker 1: a pass rush situation and he was on an island
- 36:47Speaker 1: with no help. He was only blocking partial guys and
- 36:50Speaker 1: so when he struggled is when he's had to block
- 36:53Speaker 1: a guy one on one. And and for me, the
- 36:58Speaker 1: praise should all be about Tyler Shatley this week. And Tony,
- 37:02Speaker 1: I know you watched the film. Here's a guy that,
- 37:05Speaker 1: first of all, was having one of his best games
- 37:06Speaker 1: at the Garden again against the Viking. But then when
- 37:09Speaker 1: Lennard goes out and he switches over the center, he
- 37:12Speaker 1: still performs at an incredibly high level. Tyler Shatley is
- 37:16Speaker 1: a good football player. Somebody's gonna recognize it. Somebody's gonna
- 37:20Speaker 1: sign him to be their starting center next year, because
- 37:23Speaker 1: if I'm correct, he is on a one year deal.
- 37:25Speaker 1: I thought he did outstanding and the Jaguars are very
- 37:28Speaker 1: fortunate to have him because Brandon Lender has shown in
- 37:32Speaker 1: the past that he has had some issues staying completely healthy. Jeff,
- 37:38Speaker 1: is it just me or is this like by far
- 37:41Speaker 1: Shatley's best year, Like by far? Because I like he's
- 37:46Speaker 1: like he always felt good with him at center, like
- 37:49Speaker 1: not great, but good, But when he had to play
- 37:52Speaker 1: guard in the past, you were like his length sometimes
- 37:54Speaker 1: got him in trouble with you know, especially in the
- 37:57Speaker 1: in the past game, Like he's playing the high level
- 38:00Speaker 1: football right now. Like I've been wildly impressed, Like to
- 38:04Speaker 1: the point someone was asking me about Shatley and with
- 38:07Speaker 1: Lynda getting hurt and everything else, and I've said I'll
- 38:09Speaker 1: be honestly, watching the film, it's not like there's much
- 38:13Speaker 1: of a drop off when Shatley plays um he I've
- 38:16Speaker 1: been really impressed with him, Jeff, and I agree with you.
- 38:19Speaker 1: Somebody's gonna somebody's gonna ask him to come be a
- 38:21Speaker 1: starting center because he's had a good year. And good
- 38:24Speaker 1: for him because he's one of the best guys on
- 38:26Speaker 1: the team too. If you've ever been around him, I
- 38:27Speaker 1: know you have, Jeff, but anyone who's ever been around
- 38:30Speaker 1: Tyler Shatley is just a good dude. Yeah, So there
- 38:36Speaker 1: you have it. Hey. By the way, the injury report
- 38:38Speaker 1: has just come out. We promised that when it came
- 38:40Speaker 1: out we would pass along some of the info. John
- 38:43Speaker 1: new Smith, the tight end for the Titans, with a
- 38:46Speaker 1: knee issue, limited yesterday, but full practice today, So that
- 38:51Speaker 1: is trending in the right direction for him. And of
- 38:54Speaker 1: course Jenni Smith had two touchdowns against the Jaguars back
- 38:57Speaker 1: in Week two. A couple of notes also, A J.
- 39:01Speaker 1: Brown is not practiced this week for the Titans with
- 39:04Speaker 1: an ankle issue, and that's Wednesday and Thursday for the Jaguars.
- 39:09Speaker 1: A bunch of guys limited. Brandon Linder has not practiced
- 39:12Speaker 1: this week with an ankle he missed came out of
- 39:15Speaker 1: last week's game. So those are the latest on the
- 39:17Speaker 1: injury report. Let's touch on receivers here for the Jags.
- 39:20Speaker 1: We promised that earlier as well. You know, Colin Johnson's
- 39:24Speaker 1: surging in a positive way the last couple of weeks.
- 39:27Speaker 1: Is his play has really improved. DJ Chark had seven
- 39:31Speaker 1: targets last week, only a couple of catches two guys
- 39:35Speaker 1: that not going on the opposite directions. I don't want
- 39:38Speaker 1: to say it that bluntly, but how do you get
- 39:40Speaker 1: chart back on track and how do you keep riding
- 39:42Speaker 1: the way for Colin Johnson? A great question, JP, And
- 39:50Speaker 1: and you know everybody keeps saying that DJ is the
- 39:52Speaker 1: number one receiver and we gotta get him the ball,
- 39:56Speaker 1: and we got to get them more targets. Well, I mean,
- 39:58Speaker 1: you're you're you're getting them a lot of targets. I
- 40:00Speaker 1: think the opportunity is going to play the quarterback has
- 40:02Speaker 1: got to be better. And so until that kind of
- 40:04Speaker 1: gets a lot better than that's gonna be what it is.
- 40:07Speaker 1: But I think sometimes that that conversation needs to just
- 40:11Speaker 1: be hey, look, we just need to find the open guys,
- 40:13Speaker 1: and and DJ is a great, big part of our
- 40:16Speaker 1: offense and we feel like he's one of our best guys.
- 40:19Speaker 1: But but you know, when you continually say that we
- 40:21Speaker 1: gotta get on the ball, we gotta get on the ball,
- 40:23Speaker 1: I think that sometimes can put undue pressure sometimes on
- 40:26Speaker 1: a quarterback or an offense to where sometimes it's you
- 40:30Speaker 1: got to find the open guy. If if if that's
- 40:32Speaker 1: Colin Johnson, it's Colin Johnson, If it's Keeling Cole, it's
- 40:34Speaker 1: Keeling Cole. If it's you know, whoever, it's whoever. And
- 40:37Speaker 1: so uh, I like DJ Tchark obviously, and I think
- 40:41Speaker 1: he's a really good football player. And I also really
- 40:43Speaker 1: like Colin Johnson. I think he's gonna be a marvelous
- 40:46Speaker 1: player in the future just with his size, and he
- 40:48Speaker 1: gets great separation, and I think that's one of his
- 40:50Speaker 1: talents that he's does get great separation. But JP, I
- 40:53Speaker 1: don't I don't think. I don't see that there's a
- 40:55Speaker 1: fix for fixing seven targets and two catches is for
- 41:00Speaker 1: d J Chark like what he had this past week. Well,
- 41:04Speaker 1: I'll go a little bit further on that log because,
- 41:07Speaker 1: like I'm with you, I think DJ Chark's a fabulous player.
- 41:10Speaker 1: I mean a guy, by the way, who you probably
- 41:13Speaker 1: want to try to sign before he gets to a
- 41:14Speaker 1: trade of year next year. I mean that's a he's
- 41:17Speaker 1: a building walk. But when I think about forcing the
- 41:21Speaker 1: ball to anyone, which I think is problematic in any offense,
- 41:24Speaker 1: I don't care, especially when you're talking about playing your
- 41:26Speaker 1: third quarterback of the year. Um, that becomes real issues
- 41:30Speaker 1: that developed. And if you're gonna like four like you think,
- 41:35Speaker 1: I think about that, it's like one a'ce like there's
- 41:37Speaker 1: and there's a handful of those guys in the entire
- 41:39Speaker 1: league that like this guy can go win all the time.
- 41:43Speaker 1: He's a like just he's one of the best players
- 41:45Speaker 1: in the NFL. Think back, Um, like Antonio Brown when
- 41:49Speaker 1: he's with the Steelers and they used to force the
- 41:50Speaker 1: ball to him because he was dynamic and he got going.
- 41:53Speaker 1: He was just a nightmare. Um. I used dj R.
- 41:58Speaker 1: He's definitely the number one receiver on this team. But
- 42:01Speaker 1: it's not like he's like the star, And I think
- 42:05Speaker 1: what you have to do and I think where DJs
- 42:06Speaker 1: at his best when it's in the normal flow of
- 42:08Speaker 1: the offense, because he can win one on one, and
- 42:11Speaker 1: he can create serious matchups, and he is good deep
- 42:14Speaker 1: and he's across them. I mean, he's a really good receiver.
- 42:17Speaker 1: But I think you do the offensive disservice when you're saying, well,
- 42:20Speaker 1: we gotta get him involved and we gotta get him
- 42:22Speaker 1: the ball. Um. And again, especially when you're talking about
- 42:26Speaker 1: down the line quarterbacks, the third quarterback, because just you
- 42:28Speaker 1: start putting under pressure and you start trying to force things,
- 42:31Speaker 1: and I think you get out of a rhythm. I
- 42:33Speaker 1: ain't the best offenses And where you really see good flow,
- 42:36Speaker 1: uh and offenses in a rhythm is when guys are
- 42:39Speaker 1: just within the confines of the play winning and the
- 42:42Speaker 1: quarterbacks making the right read. And I promise you they're
- 42:46Speaker 1: calling plays where DJ Chark is the first read and
- 42:49Speaker 1: so just getting to the confines of the offense run
- 42:52Speaker 1: to play, go win and then you know, take advantage
- 42:55Speaker 1: of the opportunities, which I know DJ will. So I'm
- 42:58Speaker 1: with Logs. I think I don't think there's like some
- 43:00Speaker 1: magic like levery you pole and then all of a
- 43:02Speaker 1: sudden DJ is gonna catch seven balls a game. Um.
- 43:05Speaker 1: I think it's just you know, better performance, better execution
- 43:09Speaker 1: by everybody. And I think it starts with the quarterback
- 43:11Speaker 1: a lot of times. Alright, guys, let's come back. One
- 43:16Speaker 1: final segment ahead will take a look one final look
- 43:20Speaker 1: at the Titans Jaguars matchup coming up in week fourteen.

- 46:57Speaker 1: Happy Hour, j P. Shadrick, Jeff Logging, Tony Boselli, The
- 47:01Speaker 1: Doug Moron Show coming up in a little less than
- 47:04Speaker 1: fifteen minutes the top of the hour on the Jaguars
- 47:07Speaker 1: Radio Network. We'll hear from head coach Jugg Moron from
- 47:09Speaker 1: his office at t I A. A. Bank Field. We
- 47:13Speaker 1: touched on this earlier Tony, before you joined us, But
- 47:17Speaker 1: the Titans offensive line is not quite the offensive line
- 47:21Speaker 1: that we have grown accustomed to over the years in Nashville.
- 47:26Speaker 1: They have not all kinds of injuries a lot. You know,
- 47:28Speaker 1: they lost conquined free agency, so that that's not injury,
- 47:31Speaker 1: but they lost him. They drafted the guy, Isaiah Wilson
- 47:35Speaker 1: in the first UH round to be the starter. He
- 47:39Speaker 1: hasn't been if he isn't done anything. He had I
- 47:41Speaker 1: think a d U I. He's had multiple COVID issues,
- 47:44Speaker 1: which is obviously not his fault. You know, ended up
- 47:46Speaker 1: on the list, had some suspension last week that is
- 47:49Speaker 1: you know, we're breaking some rule and now he's put
- 47:51Speaker 1: on the non football injury UH illness list. So do
- 47:55Speaker 1: you lose that? So you now you're playing a backup
- 47:57Speaker 1: in Kelly at you're right tackle position. They gotta second
- 48:00Speaker 1: year player who's okay last year right guard. Um, the
- 48:03Speaker 1: center is decent, Um Staff I think is a good player,
- 48:06Speaker 1: and then you lose your your you know, all pro
- 48:09Speaker 1: or at least Pro Bowl caliber left tackle. So they've
- 48:11Speaker 1: got all kinds of injuries and because of it, they're
- 48:14Speaker 1: not the same group. Yet they still average over points
- 48:17Speaker 1: a game offensively. So, um, the offense is line is
- 48:21Speaker 1: not living up to what it was last year and
- 48:23Speaker 1: in the past where they were pretty physically dominating, still
- 48:26Speaker 1: doing enough to score a bunch of points every week. Yeah,
- 48:30Speaker 1: the uh Isaiah Roilson is now on the reserve non
- 48:35Speaker 1: football illness list, so yeah, he hasn't done some good
- 48:38Speaker 1: things on that list. Yeah, not the list you want
- 48:44Speaker 1: to be on there. And so the Jags defense has
- 48:48Speaker 1: a task ahead of them this week against this here's
- 48:52Speaker 1: the sorry interrupted, but here's an amazing logs j P
- 48:57Speaker 1: all the injuries, all that you talked about. I just said,
- 48:59Speaker 1: they're scoring I think the third in the NFL in
- 49:01Speaker 1: scoring offense, and they have one of the top rushers
- 49:05Speaker 1: in the NFL and Derrick Henry with a like mash
- 49:09Speaker 1: unit in front of them. I got tys Ombrella playing
- 49:12Speaker 1: left tackle, who was a former second round pick for
- 49:15Speaker 1: the Broncos, who got cut and bounced around and ended
- 49:17Speaker 1: up there and was really, what, if you think about it,
- 49:20Speaker 1: he's really their fourth tackle going into camp because Dennis
- 49:23Speaker 1: Kelly is is the swing guy if Isaiah Wilson the
- 49:26Speaker 1: first round or does what they expected to be the starter,
- 49:29Speaker 1: and so I give him credit. You know, give Arthur
- 49:31Speaker 1: Smith and in that offensive staff a bunch of credit
- 49:34Speaker 1: because they're still functioning pretty well in both the pass
- 49:37Speaker 1: in the run with a group that you know they
- 49:41Speaker 1: were they did not imagine this would be the five
- 49:44Speaker 1: guys they'd be playing with. Well Sambrello, Tony ended up
- 49:48Speaker 1: on injured reserve. And tackle last week was Quasinberry, who
- 49:54Speaker 1: was former Texan also spent time with Tennessee so and
- 49:59Speaker 1: and he's he's a it's a survivor. That was his
- 50:01Speaker 1: first start. I believe that I forgot all about that
- 50:04Speaker 1: Logs thanks that was there was this second second start,
- 50:08Speaker 1: non Hodgkins win Foma. That's right, great story, but I'm
- 50:12Speaker 1: not sure what that's what they planned at the beginning
- 50:14Speaker 1: of year. No, and and trying to block Myles Garrett
- 50:19Speaker 1: is not an easy task, he struggled to say the least. Well, listen,
- 50:24Speaker 1: you put you put, you put an all pro out there,
- 50:27Speaker 1: you know, or probo cub or trust me, it had
- 50:29Speaker 1: been a great matchup. Um, you know if they have
- 50:33Speaker 1: their front line. But it's still not I don't care
- 50:35Speaker 1: who you are this league, walk of Miles Garrett. Um,
- 50:38Speaker 1: it's not easy. And uh you know he uh one
- 50:41Speaker 1: of the better players in the NFL. Alright, guys, So
- 50:47Speaker 1: four games to go, it's an eleven game losing skid
- 50:49Speaker 1: now and a few of the last stretch here have
- 50:54Speaker 1: been relatively close. The Jacksons haven't been able to finish
- 50:57Speaker 1: and get that elusive W. So you know what's left
- 51:02Speaker 1: this year? You can wreck some other team's playoff chances, Tony.
- 51:06Speaker 1: If you can go get a W or two down
- 51:08Speaker 1: the stretch here and rally the troops, that's what's left.
- 51:11Speaker 1: You just want to Yeah, that's all to left, and
- 51:13Speaker 1: we just want to win. I mean, as a player,
- 51:15Speaker 1: you're working hard, you're working on week is coach's death,
- 51:17Speaker 1: you're spending you're burning the midnight you know, you know,
- 51:20Speaker 1: the midnight hours of trying to get ready and prepare
- 51:23Speaker 1: your guys, and so everyone's working harder. When you lose,
- 51:25Speaker 1: there's no payoff, And so yeah, I'm not sure you
- 51:28Speaker 1: think about, hey, let's ruin someone's playoff chances. It's a
- 51:32Speaker 1: nice storyline. You just want to win. Like losing stinks,
- 51:37Speaker 1: It is awful, like in all the hard work, you
- 51:39Speaker 1: don't get that payoff. In my concern, and we said
- 51:41Speaker 1: it last week and it didn't happen. I'm worried about
- 51:44Speaker 1: the damned burst where you see like just the injuries
- 51:48Speaker 1: and the young players and the wear and tear of
- 51:51Speaker 1: this team and not having a ton of talent or
- 51:55Speaker 1: difference makers as well. When does that catch up? Because
- 51:58Speaker 1: it hasn't yet. And the reason it hasn't is because
- 52:00Speaker 1: these guys play so hard. You gotta give Doug and
- 52:02Speaker 1: the staff credit, you the players credit, because they do
- 52:06Speaker 1: play hard every week. And when you play hard in
- 52:08Speaker 1: the NFL, you're gonna stay in games. But boy, Jeff,
- 52:11Speaker 1: you and I talked about it in the pregame, when's
- 52:13Speaker 1: the damn break and you have one of those weeks
- 52:15Speaker 1: where it just everything adds up and it just goes
- 52:18Speaker 1: the wrong way. Yeah, and right now it hasn't broke,
- 52:21Speaker 1: so that's amazing. I mean, I think the players deserve
- 52:25Speaker 1: a lot of credit. Like you said, the coaches deserve
- 52:27Speaker 1: credit because they're coming out and they're fighting their butts
- 52:30Speaker 1: off and it's easy to not and so look, if
- 52:37Speaker 1: this team comes out and fights like crazy against Tennessee,
- 52:40Speaker 1: kudos to them, and I hope that they get a win,
- 52:43Speaker 1: because you know, what the reality is is that even
- 52:45Speaker 1: though it short lived as far as the enjoyment of
- 52:47Speaker 1: winning in the National Football League, at least you get
- 52:50Speaker 1: some enjoyment in the year that's just been absolutely painful.
- 52:54Speaker 1: When I say painful from the standpoint of there's been
- 52:57Speaker 1: so many challenges this year with OVID and the way
- 53:01Speaker 1: things have been going as far as the way you
- 53:02Speaker 1: got to conduct your business. You almost feel like that
- 53:07Speaker 1: this team should deserves to have some positive feeling because
- 53:11Speaker 1: they've worked hard and they fought hard. It seems like
- 53:14Speaker 1: almost every game, I mean, the only game that hasn't
- 53:16Speaker 1: been competitive for the most part has been the Pittsburgh
- 53:18Speaker 1: Steelers game. But you go back and you look at
- 53:21Speaker 1: the past number of five, six, seven, games. This team
- 53:24Speaker 1: has been in it, and they've had opportunities to darn
- 53:27Speaker 1: there win every game. Yeah, and I think this guy
- 53:32Speaker 1: and I don't know if it's gonna be this week, Um,
- 53:35Speaker 1: but I really believe this team is gonna win again
- 53:37Speaker 1: this year if they keep on playing as hard as
- 53:39Speaker 1: they do. It's just how, in my opinion, the NFL works.
- 53:42Speaker 1: If you play hard and you compete every week, you're
- 53:45Speaker 1: going the ball is gonna bounce your way sooner or later.
- 53:47Speaker 1: And um, hopefully it's this week. But I really do
- 53:50Speaker 1: think and I'll just echo what Jeff said, kudos the
- 53:52Speaker 1: guys to do the coaches, and I just hope they
- 53:55Speaker 1: continue to find hopefully the guys to continue they don't
- 53:58Speaker 1: keep on having these injuries. Um, but guys keep on
- 54:01Speaker 1: showing up the way they are because they will win
- 54:03Speaker 1: a game if they keep doing this weekend a week out. Yeah,
- 54:06Speaker 1: this is uh. I think the Jaguars have had the
- 54:09Speaker 1: most players to play a snap in a game in
- 54:14Speaker 1: the NFL this year. I think seventy seven different players
- 54:17Speaker 1: have played this year. I mean, it's the most in
- 54:19Speaker 1: the league. And that tells you what this team has
- 54:22Speaker 1: gone through. The turnover, the attrition and everything. So I
- 54:25Speaker 1: mean you're literally signing guys on Tuesday and making sure
- 54:28Speaker 1: they passed COVID, showing up on Friday or Saturday and
- 54:31Speaker 1: playing on Sunday. That's how it's been a few times
- 54:34Speaker 1: this year. And to keep everything together for what it's
- 54:38Speaker 1: been has been pretty remarkable so far, and there have
- 54:40Speaker 1: been some good storylines. Some of these young guys are
- 54:44Speaker 1: improving as this year goes along, right, I mean, especially
- 54:47Speaker 1: we talked about it earlier, Jeff but Tony on the
- 54:49Speaker 1: defensive lines. Some of those guys are starting to play
- 54:51Speaker 1: a little bit better as the year goes on. We've
- 54:53Speaker 1: seen the improvement of a guy like Colin Johnson step
- 54:56Speaker 1: in and and get an opportunity later in the year
- 54:59Speaker 1: and he stepped up, played well. James Robinson just continues
- 55:02Speaker 1: to grow. So there are some positives. I know, it's
- 55:06Speaker 1: one and eleven. It's eleven straight losses. That's what the
- 55:09Speaker 1: wins and losses are, the the ultimate thing you look at.
- 55:12Speaker 1: But there are some things, you know, very few things
- 55:16Speaker 1: you can hang your hat on and say that are
- 55:18Speaker 1: getting better around here. I'm cautious when I say that,
- 55:22Speaker 1: but no, JP, you're right, I mean listen all the
- 55:26Speaker 1: I mean the fans care about and what everyone everyone
- 55:29Speaker 1: cares about the end of the day, it's wins and
- 55:30Speaker 1: losses and point we're on the wrong side of that
- 55:33Speaker 1: ledger right now. But if you look at let's take
- 55:36Speaker 1: it a step below and look at the younger some
- 55:38Speaker 1: of the young players, what they've been put into and
- 55:40Speaker 1: what the how they've developed. James Robinson, we don't need
- 55:42Speaker 1: to talk about him. I mean, he's one of the
- 55:44Speaker 1: better running backs in the n f C, in the
- 55:45Speaker 1: in the NFL. Um but I'll just call one guy out.
- 55:48Speaker 1: You already talked about Colin Johnson. Done Coston, an undrafted
- 55:52Speaker 1: rookie free agent from Miami of Ohio, and he has
- 55:57Speaker 1: come in and is one and earned a starting job,
- 56:00Speaker 1: beating out of the past first Strouder and Tavin Bryant.
- 56:04Speaker 1: And not just because there's no one else, and maybe
- 56:08Speaker 1: if there there isn't anybody else, but if you watch them,
- 56:11Speaker 1: they've gotten better as a defense and a run defense
- 56:14Speaker 1: with him playing that three technique, and that's impressive. And
- 56:17Speaker 1: guess what, I believe he's a guy. But he's gonna
- 56:19Speaker 1: come back into camp next year. I'm not saying he's
- 56:21Speaker 1: the starter, but boy, he's a rotation guy that you
- 56:24Speaker 1: feel good about putting in the game. And he's shown
- 56:26Speaker 1: that he has the ability to compete at this level.
- 56:29Speaker 1: That's a win. I mean, that's a good stuff right there.
- 56:31Speaker 1: And guys like Doun Constant are are developing, and uh,
- 56:35Speaker 1: that's a little bit of good news. You gotta hang
- 56:37Speaker 1: your hat on something, don't you. Good news, But at
- 56:40Speaker 1: the same token, it's kind of bad news. And that
- 56:43Speaker 1: you now have a first round pick who's a bubble guy,
- 56:48Speaker 1: and that's been hurting this football team for many years,
- 56:51Speaker 1: is that you're you're missing and we have a first
- 56:55Speaker 1: round pick who right now doesn't even deserve a second
- 56:59Speaker 1: look at another contract. That's a problem. I agree with you.
- 57:03Speaker 1: I was trying to be positive as we end this
- 57:06Speaker 1: before you go to the coach. I agree. Yeah, we're
- 57:14Speaker 1: trying to finish on the up slope here. That's okay.
- 57:17Speaker 1: We're wrapping up. Sorry guys, Titans h Happy holidays to
- 57:23Speaker 1: you as well. So the Jags and the Titans come
- 57:27Speaker 1: up Week four team second time around. I mean, obviously, guys,
- 57:30Speaker 1: these organizations are these teams have gone in totally different
- 57:32Speaker 1: directions since Week two. Um, you know, it was the
- 57:35Speaker 1: first loss for the Jaguars. They haven't won since then.
- 57:38Speaker 1: The Titans are in first place, toning it quickly. Are
- 57:41Speaker 1: the Titans sustainable? Can they go win this thing? I
- 57:46Speaker 1: don't oh the division? Yeah, I think they can. Um,
- 57:50Speaker 1: I don't think. I mean, their defense is so bad.
- 57:52Speaker 1: They can't get off the field, they can't rush the
- 57:54Speaker 1: passer um, They're really not good anywhere on the defense
- 57:58Speaker 1: if you really look at it, and I just don't
- 58:00Speaker 1: think it's sustainable in the playoffs. They have a good offense,
- 58:03Speaker 1: they have good skilled players. Obviously there kenry Um good
- 58:05Speaker 1: run game, but I just think they're not good enough
- 58:08Speaker 1: defensive way to make a deep run in the playoffs.
- 58:11Speaker 1: Logs thinks it's gonna be a tight game. What do
- 58:12Speaker 1: you think? Bo I did too, because they showed this
- 58:16Speaker 1: team shows up, Jaxville shows up. They play hard, they
- 58:18Speaker 1: play physical. Um, I think you know they're gonna give
- 58:21Speaker 1: Tennessee all they want. I like it tight ball games.
- 58:26Speaker 1: If the Jags can finish it this week against the
- 58:29Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans and bo we will talk to you on
- 58:32Speaker 1: Sunday in Week four. Team looking forward to guys, Tell
- 58:35Speaker 1: Tell Doug I said, hello, I think you just did.
- 58:39Speaker 1: He listens to the last segment usually every week from
- 58:42Speaker 1: his office at t I A bank Field. Tony Vasselli
- 58:44Speaker 1: out of here prior to the Jaguars left tackle joining
- 58:47Speaker 1: us each week. Alright, logs final thoughts here. Uh, it's
- 58:51Speaker 1: a long losing skin, a division rival coming in in
- 58:54Speaker 1: first place that you know very well, and it's a
- 58:57Speaker 1: matchup that you think he's gonna be pretty tight. Yeah,
- 59:01Speaker 1: I do. I think it's I think it's gonna be
- 59:03Speaker 1: tyke ballgame. I think the Jaguars have done a pretty
- 59:06Speaker 1: good job against some of the running backs that they faced. Cleveland,
- 59:09Speaker 1: they kind of held them down for a while. And
- 59:11Speaker 1: then obviously with Dalvin Cook, I thought they did a
- 59:14Speaker 1: pretty good job against him. He had to have a
- 59:15Speaker 1: lot of touches to get where he was at. This
- 59:17Speaker 1: week's a big challenge with Derrick Henry and Cleveland Browns
- 59:20Speaker 1: did a good job stopping him, so the Jaguars can
- 59:23Speaker 1: hopefully do a good job stopping him as well. All Right,
- 59:27Speaker 1: Stick Around network coverage starts next with the Doug Moron Show.
- 59:31Speaker 1: The Jaguars head coach joins us from his office at
- 59:34Speaker 1: t I a A bank Field. Thanks to Tony BASELDI
