- 1:11Speaker 1: care packages. Two hundred and fifty volunteers and the entire roster,
- 1:15Speaker 1: So really kind of a kink for us for sure.
- 1:18Speaker 1: Who exactly to the care care packages go to. They
- 1:21Speaker 1: go deployed all over the year. They got all over
- 1:23Speaker 1: all over the world, the Afghanistan, Bahrain, Japan, anybody that
- 1:27Speaker 1: requests the package. Sometimes there's CEOs or request packages and
- 1:31Speaker 1: they're all Christmas place. They've got a nice car, nice snacks,
- 1:33Speaker 1: just to something to warm up their feelings at the holidays. Yeah,
- 1:36Speaker 1: that's it's gotta always be, especially doing the holidays, but
- 1:39Speaker 1: specials with thanks came and coming around in Christmas, coming
- 1:41Speaker 1: around for our soldiers that's deployed overseas to get a
- 1:44Speaker 1: care package. What motivates you to put this sign of
- 1:47Speaker 1: a program together? You know, that's our tenth year of
- 1:49Speaker 1: the Stuffing Stockings for Soldiers program. And uh, you know,
- 1:53Speaker 1: kath used to send them civically. He used to send
- 1:56Speaker 1: them to boy Scout troops and relatives stuff like that
- 1:58Speaker 1: that we're out there, and she got a calling to
- 2:01Speaker 1: do it full time and we've been shipping them ever since.
- 2:04Speaker 1: And and sometimes it's the only thing somebody gets, and
- 2:07Speaker 1: sometimes it's they get multiple things, and she's heard letters
- 2:09Speaker 1: and stories of stuff that said, you know, I didn't
- 2:12Speaker 1: open it because Christmas was coming and I knew would
- 2:14Speaker 1: be the only thing I got. The letters and the
- 2:16Speaker 1: pictures and all this stuff we get back is absolutely incredible. Guys.
- 2:18Speaker 1: It was pretty pretty unique coming up here just a
- 2:21Speaker 1: minute ago. On every table up here, first of all,
- 2:24Speaker 1: you got the box that where all the boxers and
- 2:26Speaker 1: their care pactors are gonna get stuffed with all kinds
- 2:28Speaker 1: of goodies. But then on all the tables up there
- 2:31Speaker 1: there there are cards, and so everybody can choose to
- 2:35Speaker 1: fill out a card. I saw Tom Coughlin fill them
- 2:38Speaker 1: out of so tell people what the card is all about.
- 2:42Speaker 1: So the cards a personal note from who's ever packing
- 2:44Speaker 1: these boxes. So tonight's really kind of unique. We're gonna
- 2:47Speaker 1: be able to everybody's gonna work every station. So somebody's
- 2:49Speaker 1: gonna make a box, somebody's gonna do the bubble wrap,
- 2:51Speaker 1: someone's gonna put some bio freese in a bag, someone's
- 2:54Speaker 1: gonna make a candy bag. Someone's gonna write a card,
- 2:56Speaker 1: somebody's gonna pack a box, and everybody's gonna get to
- 2:58Speaker 1: touch every level this package and get and send some
- 3:01Speaker 1: love overseas for sure. Is this the biggest care package
- 3:05Speaker 1: of it? You guys have had? Well, by far, the
- 3:07Speaker 1: most we've ever done in a day is probably two
- 3:10Speaker 1: to try to organize this many volunteers and and do
- 3:12Speaker 1: it mobile. We usually do it at the dealership, you know,
- 3:14Speaker 1: and it's all static. We had to rent trucks and
- 3:17Speaker 1: get a lot of stuff. Man, it's it's it's it's
- 3:20Speaker 1: it's working out pretty good. You're gonna pay off, for sure.
- 3:22Speaker 1: You guys do a lot of stuff obviously for deployed
- 3:24Speaker 1: troops as we see here, but you you also do
- 3:26Speaker 1: a lot for first sponders in the North Florida and
- 3:28Speaker 1: South Georgia areas here and part of that was that
- 3:32Speaker 1: helps somebody. Three concert this past weekend done at Orange Park. Uh,
- 3:36Speaker 1: it was a load of fun. By the way, How
- 3:38Speaker 1: was that was the turnout for that show? And what

- 3:42Speaker 1: You know, we have fantastic We sold that Thrasher horn out.

- 4:04Speaker 1: this is fantastic stuff. Where the Upper West Club at
- 4:07Speaker 1: t I A bank Field, Jim Signarelli with us from St.
- 4:09Speaker 1: Michael Soldier's fantastic event tonight, A thousand care packages going out,
- 4:14Speaker 1: two volunteers, and the entire Jaguars roster. Now that doesn't
- 4:17Speaker 1: happen every day, Jim, It's ever happened for me. I got,
- 4:20Speaker 1: I got chased ten fifteen guys, and that's a really
- 4:22Speaker 1: good night for me. Right now, you get all fifty
- 4:24Speaker 1: three plus probably the practice squad guys as well, some coaches.
- 4:27Speaker 1: I'm sure it might have a hand in it too.
- 4:28Speaker 1: You'll probably see Doug maro own coming up. That's that's
- 4:31Speaker 1: nearly unprecedented, has to be. Yeah, it's it's it's an
- 4:33Speaker 1: incredible outpouring of a feeling for what we're trying to
- 4:36Speaker 1: do at the at the holidays. For these guys. I mean,
- 4:39Speaker 1: you know, if it isn't for them, they fight for
- 4:41Speaker 1: our freedom every day and without them, you know, we're
- 4:43Speaker 1: not here. So let's take care of my Christmas time.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Just the crazy I did see there were some men
- 4:49Speaker 1: and women servicemen and women that are here. Absolutely, they're
- 4:52Speaker 1: actually the other side of the wall here. They're playing
- 4:54Speaker 1: video games with players too, in the pros versus g
- 4:57Speaker 1: I Joe's venue, So it's going on both sides. It's
- 5:00Speaker 1: a little crazy. Well what are they playing video games?
- 5:05Speaker 1: Everybody plays and they are playing Call of Duty too,
- 5:09Speaker 1: I think, okay, would that be fair? It's probably not fair. Yeah,
- 5:13Speaker 1: it's probably not fair when you gotta you know, men
- 5:15Speaker 1: and women of the service, they're yeah, that's what happens. Jim,
- 5:22Speaker 1: great to see you, well done, and good luck tonight.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Let's get these packages out there. Than Jigarella, you're joining
- 5:28Speaker 1: us from St. Michael's Soldiers, Uh, Jaguars, Happy our rolls
- 5:32Speaker 1: along here, JP, Shadrick, Jeff Flagman, Leon Sarcy, great stuff man.
- 5:36Speaker 1: Jim's Jim and his wife Kathleen put on a fantastic
- 5:39Speaker 1: charity here and they do a great job with all
- 5:41Speaker 1: their events a round and uh, this is by far
- 5:43Speaker 1: the biggest one yet. The entire team is coming up.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Are let's talk a little football now, guys, shall we.
- 5:49Speaker 1: We'll have some special player guests coming up and just
- 5:52Speaker 1: a little bit. But obviously the biggest news this week
- 5:54Speaker 1: is Nick Foles is back and it's his first game
- 5:57Speaker 1: back since Week one, and it sounds like they haven't
- 6:00Speaker 1: really missed a beat with him being in the building
- 6:03Speaker 1: not on the field. Uh, sounds like everybody's kind of
- 6:05Speaker 1: ready for him to roll. I think a lot of
- 6:07Speaker 1: players have talked very highly of Nick Foles and also
- 6:11Speaker 1: have talked very highly about how practice has been executed
- 6:14Speaker 1: so far. But the reality is the proof is into
- 6:18Speaker 1: putting when it comes to game day. And Uh, the
- 6:21Speaker 1: one thing I think that gives me hope for this
- 6:23Speaker 1: football team because the margin for air at this point
- 6:26Speaker 1: in the season for the Jaguars now that're sitting at
- 6:28Speaker 1: four and five and so small, and can a quarterback
- 6:32Speaker 1: who's cold, so to speak, come off of the bench
- 6:36Speaker 1: so to speak, really injured reserve and fire on all
- 6:39Speaker 1: sellers and lead a team to some victories here down
- 6:42Speaker 1: the stretch, which they are solely needed for this team
- 6:44Speaker 1: to get back and playoff contention. Most guys, I would say, hey,
- 6:47Speaker 1: look that's that's too tall of the task. Leon. But
- 6:50Speaker 1: we're talking about Nick Foles, who's kind of become accustomed
- 6:53Speaker 1: to that. Well, I tell you why, to be quite
- 6:55Speaker 1: honest with you. For me, this feels like Week one
- 6:58Speaker 1: all over again, because Week one the anticipation Nick Foles
- 7:02Speaker 1: eight and all of man. But I think there's some
- 7:05Speaker 1: question marks have been answered. We were concerned about the
- 7:07Speaker 1: receiving court, offensive line was learning from that gonna be healthy. Well,
- 7:11Speaker 1: he's gonna be able to come back. Now, all those
- 7:12Speaker 1: are components that are in place right though, opens a
- 7:15Speaker 1: lines playing decent. Lennards had a banner year running the
- 7:19Speaker 1: ball in out of the backfield. The receiving card has
- 7:21Speaker 1: been impressive. Now you're placing Nick Foles and you see
- 7:24Speaker 1: what happens. You know, and I used to I labeled
- 7:27Speaker 1: them saying Nick because always this time of the year,
- 7:30Speaker 1: late November signers guy say so saying this guy that
- 7:38Speaker 1: slay a little early in the mid November. So we're
- 7:40Speaker 1: gonna see what And he has the resume, especially in November.
- 7:43Speaker 1: He has the resume taken over a team lead him
- 7:46Speaker 1: into the playoffs for the last two years. So I
- 7:48Speaker 1: think the expectations of the fan base should be high
- 7:51Speaker 1: as well as it For me, I would like to
- 7:53Speaker 1: see what he can do with this team moving forward
- 7:57Speaker 1: with the next seven game. Let's hear what Nick Foles
- 7:59Speaker 1: had to say about a November December games are big,
- 8:02Speaker 1: certainly are for this quarterback. It's harder the party. Guys
- 8:07Speaker 1: have been playing for a long time. More more is
- 8:09Speaker 1: on the line. Uh. You know, offenses and teams and
- 8:13Speaker 1: cultures have been developed. Um, you never know each year
- 8:16Speaker 1: the team's developing culture. It doesn't matter if you have
- 8:20Speaker 1: your team returning that ten per cent will affect a
- 8:23Speaker 1: culture and you have to bring them along. So at
- 8:24Speaker 1: this point, you know the cultures are really been created. Um.
- 8:27Speaker 1: That's the biggest challenge of stepping back in there and
- 8:29Speaker 1: just playing football when it's been a while. Um. But
- 8:31Speaker 1: I look forward to the challenge because the guys that
- 8:33Speaker 1: get to step in the huddle with and you know,
- 8:35Speaker 1: be with on the sidelines. Yeah, December and November games,
- 8:40Speaker 1: as you heard, the quarterbacks stay there are just hard.
- 8:43Speaker 1: They're tougher and more at stake in December. And it
- 8:45Speaker 1: seems like in his past at least he's stepped up
- 8:49Speaker 1: to that challenge. Well, I looked at it like this.
- 8:52Speaker 1: It didn't matter really in my opinion, what Gardener miss
- 8:55Speaker 1: you did against the Houston Texas. I think it's you know,
- 8:59Speaker 1: whether he had won. And I think that at this
- 9:01Speaker 1: point of the season in November, where the stakes are
- 9:03Speaker 1: much higher, where everybody's jocking for positions and for the playoffs,
- 9:08Speaker 1: I just think that maybe the organization felt that Nick Foles,
- 9:11Speaker 1: if he was healthy after the bye, would give them
- 9:14Speaker 1: more of an opportunity to move as far as the
- 9:18Speaker 1: game's go. I know, everybody boy in the too mens
- 9:20Speaker 1: you made it was. It was at the at the
- 9:22Speaker 1: at the top of the of the of the mountaintop
- 9:25Speaker 1: when it when it was good. But I think that
- 9:28Speaker 1: once you get to this point and seeing a locker
- 9:30Speaker 1: man we both played, we had playoff runs in November,
- 9:33Speaker 1: we understand that the the intensity rises, the speed rises,
- 9:38Speaker 1: um the execution, the attention to detail, all that kind stuff.
- 9:42Speaker 1: I just felt that maybe they would have felt a
- 9:44Speaker 1: little bit more comfortable having Nick Foles in that spot
- 9:47Speaker 1: than maybe our gardener minship. Yeah, I don't know what
- 9:50Speaker 1: necessarily would have happened if minsheu had lit it up
- 9:53Speaker 1: against against Houston. I mean, maybe maybe you stay for
- 9:56Speaker 1: another week with Gardner Minshew and then and then you
- 9:59Speaker 1: go to Nick. But I think what we saw against Houston,
- 10:04Speaker 1: if if it did or if it didn't, impact their decision,
- 10:07Speaker 1: I don't know that we're We're not involved in that
- 10:08Speaker 1: decision making process, but I think it was very apparent
- 10:11Speaker 1: in that game. Some of the shortcomings that Gardner Minshew has,
- 10:14Speaker 1: and a lot of them are experienced related, you know.
- 10:17Speaker 1: There there was some plays that I was able to
- 10:19Speaker 1: highlight last week on film to where he missed some things.
- 10:22Speaker 1: He missed some open guys, he missed some reads. And
- 10:25Speaker 1: then some of the accuracy that cropped up in that
- 10:28Speaker 1: ball game which led to the interceptions were problematic. And
- 10:33Speaker 1: the one thing I think that the team is excited
- 10:35Speaker 1: about is that this offense was custom Taylor to Nick Foles.
- 10:39Speaker 1: It was built for Nick Foles. Everything that they installed
- 10:43Speaker 1: had Nick Foles in mind. They didn't do anything in
- 10:46Speaker 1: this offense when they built it that was designed for
- 10:49Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew. So I think they're excited to see that
- 10:54Speaker 1: in play with Nick Foles behind the ship so to speaks,
- 10:57Speaker 1: wheel of driving it and uh, and I'm excited to
- 11:01Speaker 1: watch it, you know, but I still have concerns. You know,
- 11:04Speaker 1: it was a non throwing shoulder clavical injury. Human nature
- 11:09Speaker 1: is will will he shy away from contact? Will he
- 11:13Speaker 1: stand in there like he did when he threw that
- 11:15Speaker 1: touchdown past the d j H hard against Kansas City
- 11:18Speaker 1: with a big guy bearing down on I mean, I
- 11:21Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, those are all the things that
- 11:23Speaker 1: I think that that have to be answered on the
- 11:25Speaker 1: field of play in Indianapolis. And I think, much like Leon,
- 11:29Speaker 1: I'm excited about I'm excited about seeing it. I'm excited
- 11:32Speaker 1: about seeing how he looks in this offense, how he
- 11:35Speaker 1: reacts to coming back from an injury, how his teammates
- 11:39Speaker 1: respond to him running the show, because you know, look,
- 11:42Speaker 1: the reality is they need him and they need him
- 11:45Speaker 1: to play at a high level if they're gonna be
- 11:47Speaker 1: able to reach their goals of the season, which is
- 11:49Speaker 1: playoffs and playoffs. Right now, the the windows very small.
- 11:54Speaker 1: It has gotten smaller with that loss to Houston in
- 11:57Speaker 1: London now because right now you have what it was
- 12:00Speaker 1: one in two division record, you have a three and
- 12:04Speaker 1: four conference record, and there's a lot of other teams
- 12:07Speaker 1: in the FC that are in a little bit better
- 12:09Speaker 1: position than the Jaguars right now, no doubt about topic.
- 12:13Speaker 1: He said that full speaking of the shoulder and the
- 12:16Speaker 1: classical and all they said when he walks through metal detectors.
- 12:19Speaker 1: Now he beats going to the airport. He gets to
- 12:21Speaker 1: meet some more people because he had some hardware put
- 12:23Speaker 1: in there to keep that classical together, which is pretty interesting. Hey,

- 17:07Speaker 1: obviously in the division. Jacks forward five. If they win
- 17:09Speaker 1: there all of a sudden second place. It's a Colts
- 17:12Speaker 1: team though that lost last week to the Miami Dolphins.
- 17:15Speaker 1: They didn't have the quarterback, they didn't have a handful
- 17:17Speaker 1: of receivers, and they somehow lost that game to Miami
- 17:21Speaker 1: to kind of bring them back close to the Jaguars here.
- 17:23Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissette is going to be back, but he does
- 17:26Speaker 1: have a knee issue, that's obvious. He's on the report still.
- 17:30Speaker 1: Um when he's right, when he's ready, Why is Jacoby
- 17:33Speaker 1: Brissette successful. Well, I mean, if you look at him
- 17:36Speaker 1: rating wise around the quarter with the quarterbacks in the
- 17:39Speaker 1: National Football League, he's in the top half. We're we're
- 17:42Speaker 1: talking about a young player here and he's the twelfth
- 17:44Speaker 1: grade and pass from the National Football League. And I think, uh,
- 17:49Speaker 1: not having him was certainly on display last week when
- 17:51Speaker 1: they had Brian Horror at quarterback who fumbled the ball,
- 17:54Speaker 1: had three interceptions and if he had done anything then
- 17:58Speaker 1: anything other than the horrific performance that he had, the
- 18:02Speaker 1: Cults would have beaten the Miami Dolphin. But I mean
- 18:04Speaker 1: he he was terrible. I mean, I mean I'm talking
- 18:07Speaker 1: world class terrible, to the point where the fans were
- 18:11Speaker 1: starting to beg for the third team quarterback boy, And
- 18:14Speaker 1: that's not a good situation in an Apple. So Jacoby
- 18:18Speaker 1: bros Said, I don't know if he's a franchise quarterback.
- 18:22Speaker 1: Well when not? Yet he's their starting quarterback. I mean,
- 18:26Speaker 1: when you start talking about is he a franchise quarterback? Uh,
- 18:30Speaker 1: they have hopes that he can be the franchise quarterback
- 18:32Speaker 1: because of the early retirement when they had your luck,
- 18:35Speaker 1: But he has yet to prove that he can be
- 18:36Speaker 1: that guy. But he's certainly showed that he has the
- 18:39Speaker 1: potential to maybe be a franchise type quarterback. Didn't give
- 18:43Speaker 1: him twenty million to the beginning of the season, and
- 18:45Speaker 1: I think they, yeah, they bumped since he was gonna
- 18:48Speaker 1: be the starter, but I don't know what it was
- 18:50Speaker 1: value wise per year. Yeah, well, listen to Iniappolis Colsa
- 18:53Speaker 1: in the same position where in a singular elimination games.
- 18:56Speaker 1: All right, moving forward, they can't afford to lose me again.
- 18:59Speaker 1: And like you said, wait, Horria played last week. You
- 19:01Speaker 1: had to do whatever you needed to do to get birth,
- 19:04Speaker 1: to get Jacoby out there for this game because the
- 19:07Speaker 1: jagualls in the in the coach in the situation where
- 19:09Speaker 1: Jaguars win, coach losing O, they're five and five. That's
- 19:12Speaker 1: hoid with us and the Titans. You know what I'm saying.
- 19:15Speaker 1: So we're moving forward. All these games are that more
- 19:17Speaker 1: important if you can have your quarterback in place. And
- 19:20Speaker 1: Jacoby said, I mean he was what four team touchdowns
- 19:22Speaker 1: through the supance about six percent completion and like he was,
- 19:25Speaker 1: like you said, a lot of to say, he was
- 19:27Speaker 1: probably on the top half as far as quarterback play goals.
- 19:30Speaker 1: So they're they're listen they're playing with their best. We're
- 19:33Speaker 1: bringing in our best. That's gonna be a nice little clash.
- 19:36Speaker 1: And whoever wins, we win. We're back in the thick
- 19:38Speaker 1: of it. They lose, they we bring them down the
- 19:41Speaker 1: notcha too. So it's gonna be very interesting. I think
- 19:43Speaker 1: it's a great challenge for this Jaguars football team in Indianapolis.
- 19:47Speaker 1: From watching the film of the Colts, I think their
- 19:50Speaker 1: defense a couple of years ago, I thought, talent wise,
- 19:54Speaker 1: it might have been one of the worst defenses in
- 19:56Speaker 1: the National Football League. And I think Chris Ballard, their
- 19:59Speaker 1: general manager, has done a pretty good job with drafting
- 20:02Speaker 1: guys and also supplementing in free agency. I mean, heck,
- 20:05Speaker 1: they added Justin Houston this past year. He's one of
- 20:09Speaker 1: the best pass rushers in the National Football League. He's
- 20:11Speaker 1: got I believe, seven sacks for them. He's had I
- 20:15Speaker 1: think a second five consecutive games. He was really dominant
- 20:19Speaker 1: last week against the Miami Dolphins. Uh. They're young, they're hungry,
- 20:23Speaker 1: they play hard on defense and an offensively, look, he's
- 20:27Speaker 1: done a great job of building that offensive line. He's
- 20:29Speaker 1: added a couple of guys through the draft last year
- 20:32Speaker 1: and Bradon Smith and obviously the big man Quenton Nelson
- 20:35Speaker 1: from Notre Dame last year, and he's an absolute beast,
- 20:39Speaker 1: arguably one of the best guards that I've ever seen
- 20:42Speaker 1: play the game ever. I mean, look, I mean, I'm
- 20:45Speaker 1: not trying to to be crazy here, Leon, and and
- 20:49Speaker 1: you know, offensive line play as good as anybody. But
- 20:52Speaker 1: I have never watched film and have gone I've got
- 20:56Speaker 1: to watch a guard. There was one guy in the
- 20:58Speaker 1: league that I watched a lot of when um, when
- 21:01Speaker 1: I turned the film on, and that was Larry Allen
- 21:04Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys and big strong, make people look
- 21:08Speaker 1: bad and uh and Larry Allen as good as he
- 21:11Speaker 1: was at guard, I mean, I mean's tremendous guard. He
- 21:13Speaker 1: put him at tackle he wasn't nearly as good, but
- 21:15Speaker 1: then watching him a guard, he was incredible. And watching
- 21:18Speaker 1: this this young guard played football in Indianapolis. There's a
- 21:22Speaker 1: lot of funny leon and I watched film, I watched
- 21:25Speaker 1: the play, and then I hit rewind and I go
- 21:28Speaker 1: back and I watched Clinton Nelson every play. That's how
- 21:30Speaker 1: good he is. I don't want to see him crazy
- 21:33Speaker 1: this saying this, But Quintin Nelson, maybe like the first
- 21:36Speaker 1: four or five six games of the season should have
- 21:39Speaker 1: been one of the top fives was m v P. Now,
- 21:41Speaker 1: I know that sounds crazy for offense, but he is
- 21:44Speaker 1: that dominating of a left guard. Like you said when
- 21:48Speaker 1: I only the only two guys I used to envy
- 21:50Speaker 1: when I used to watch film but I wish I
- 21:52Speaker 1: could blocked live was Jonathan Obden and Larry Allen. I
- 21:56Speaker 1: used to watch them and being, ah, how menacing they
- 21:59Speaker 1: were at the position. This kid Nelson as as as
- 22:04Speaker 1: hard as it from my heart saying or no, the
- 22:07Speaker 1: damn guy. It's awesome. This it's this dude from jump
- 22:13Speaker 1: It's awesome. And you just think about what they did
- 22:16Speaker 1: that that shows you that you can bring in a
- 22:18Speaker 1: character guy. Because the Coast office and line was terrible
- 22:22Speaker 1: on Andrew. Look go back two years ago. They were terrible.
- 22:25Speaker 1: But you're bringing a guy like this and his mentality
- 22:28Speaker 1: and his mindset and his toughness, it becomes contagious on
- 22:31Speaker 1: the office line because if you see him getting down
- 22:33Speaker 1: to business, you need to up your game up or
- 22:36Speaker 1: you'll get called out. So that there's no mistaken why
- 22:39Speaker 1: this office line is a lot better and it has
- 22:41Speaker 1: a lot to do in the fact that Nelson is there,
- 22:44Speaker 1: I left one and that's that's say the focused point
- 22:46Speaker 1: for the Jaguars in this game, and obviously one of
- 22:49Speaker 1: the great keys is that you've got to stop the
- 22:51Speaker 1: running attack, the rushing attack of the Indianapolis Colts at
- 22:54Speaker 1: Marlon Mack. If you don't do that, if you allow
- 22:56Speaker 1: Marlon Mac to become like Carlos Hide was to weeks
- 23:00Speaker 1: ago in London, you're not gonna win this ball game.
- 23:03Speaker 1: You've got to be able to stop the run and
- 23:05Speaker 1: try to put as much pressure on a quarterback that
- 23:08Speaker 1: has an m c L injury, to put as much
- 23:11Speaker 1: pressure on him as you possibly can. Because the Jaguars
- 23:15Speaker 1: defense we've seen, Look, they had a three week stretch
- 23:18Speaker 1: to where they went against Cincinnati, the New Orleans Saints,
- 23:21Speaker 1: and then the Jets to where they gave themselves a
- 23:24Speaker 1: chance to win the game because they did a great
- 23:26Speaker 1: job was stopping the run. If you don't do the
- 23:29Speaker 1: same thing against this football team in Indiana, Apisode will
- 23:32Speaker 1: be a tough day. But as we saw in those
- 23:34Speaker 1: big games on the ground against this Jaguars defense, it
- 23:37Speaker 1: only takes a misassignment here, one guy out of position
- 23:40Speaker 1: going too far. Maybe trying to do too much and boom,
- 23:43Speaker 1: it's gone. It's a house and in a perfect look.
- 23:46Speaker 1: First of all, one guy can make a mistake, but
- 23:49Speaker 1: it should never be a house call like what we're
- 23:51Speaker 1: talking about. Because the play you're referring to what Carlos
- 23:54Speaker 1: Hide breaks out the long run against the Jaguars in London,
- 23:58Speaker 1: and it was a simple check. And then you have
- 24:00Speaker 1: a defensive tackle that's sinking down to the A gap.
- 24:03Speaker 1: Ronnie Harrison, who's the safety, has to adjust. He doesn't.
- 24:06Speaker 1: He misses his gap, and when he misses his gap,
- 24:09Speaker 1: calls Hide is out the gate and off to the races.
- 24:12Speaker 1: You know. So when when you have an adjustment, a
- 24:15Speaker 1: young player sometimes needs to hear that call, But you're
- 24:19Speaker 1: getting better when the young player doesn't need to hear
- 24:22Speaker 1: that call and he automatically anticipates that call and is
- 24:25Speaker 1: making the call in his own mind. He's not relying
- 24:27Speaker 1: on somebody else to say, hey, j Pete, we're sinking
- 24:30Speaker 1: the tackle. You are now in the B gap. You know,
- 24:33Speaker 1: as a young player, when they start to get it
- 24:35Speaker 1: in their own mind and they don't have to rely
- 24:37Speaker 1: on somebody else to give it to him, that's when
- 24:38Speaker 1: you're starting making progress and the Jaguars aren't there yet
- 24:41Speaker 1: with some of the young safety play. But I think
- 24:44Speaker 1: that Ronnie Harrison is a pretty quick learner. Hopefully he
- 24:46Speaker 1: can get it because if you have plays like that
- 24:48Speaker 1: with Marlon Mack again, it's gonna be a long day. Yeah,
- 24:51Speaker 1: And this team misses Marcell Darius is it alright because
- 24:55Speaker 1: he feels in those gaps, especially when the wearing game.
- 24:57Speaker 1: So they they they just gotta mix a match and
- 25:00Speaker 1: get someone in there is gonna help him out. And
- 25:02Speaker 1: Miles Jen's got played well at this point in the season.
- 25:04Speaker 1: The teams that could run the ball and stop the
- 25:06Speaker 1: run are the teams that took that play well in
- 25:09Speaker 1: Oldham d Slimby you're seeing January. I think it's gonna
- 25:12Speaker 1: be a great challenge for the Jaguars in this game
- 25:14Speaker 1: from from the other perspective and that they need to
- 25:18Speaker 1: get their running game going. Even though you have Nick
- 25:20Speaker 1: Foles back in the lineup. You can't sit there and say, hey,
- 25:22Speaker 1: we're gonna roll Nick Foles out, We're gonna throw for
- 25:24Speaker 1: three hundred yards and we're gonna score twenty five points
- 25:27Speaker 1: on the arm of our quarterback. You can't put that
- 25:29Speaker 1: much pressure on Nick Foles. You gotta have a good,
- 25:32Speaker 1: solid rushing attack. You have to give the ball to
- 25:34Speaker 1: Leonard four Nette more than eleven times, which is what
- 25:37Speaker 1: you gave it to him in Houston. And then to
- 25:39Speaker 1: have an effective running game. And it's a challenge because
- 25:41Speaker 1: Indianapolis was pretty good against the run. Hold some of
- 25:44Speaker 1: those thoughts. We're gonna come back and hear from Leonard
- 25:47Speaker 1: for that, and that discussed the running game a little
- 25:49Speaker 1: bit more for this Jaguars offense and see how they
- 25:51Speaker 1: can continue to run the football down the stretch. Here

- 30:59Speaker 1: video game event. On the other side, Logs is infatuated
- 31:03Speaker 1: with the video game. It's it's pretty I mean they
- 31:04Speaker 1: haven't you know, the big giant screens here in the club.
- 31:07Speaker 1: They're actually playing on that. And uh, there's a game
- 31:11Speaker 1: going on right now and it's the Jaguars against the
- 31:13Speaker 1: Chicago Bear. Josh Lambo just kicked the field goal to
- 31:16Speaker 1: go up seven over the Chicago Hammering on the road.
- 31:21Speaker 1: Huh Yeah, it's pretty cool. I mean it's uh, I
- 31:23Speaker 1: mean playing on these big giants. I mean they're probably screen.
- 31:28Speaker 1: That's huge. Yeah, it's pretty big. Pretty good stuff tonight,
- 31:30Speaker 1: and thank you for joining us here on Jaguars Happy Hour.
- 31:33Speaker 1: We heard from Leonard for that there and you almost
- 31:35Speaker 1: went there last segment, but I stopped you stop me
- 31:38Speaker 1: because I mean, obviously fo Nette has had a very
- 31:40Speaker 1: good season. The running game is there for the most part,
- 31:44Speaker 1: but with Fols coming back, if they can open it
- 31:46Speaker 1: up down the field some do you guys think that
- 31:49Speaker 1: can open up a little more for Leonard for that
- 31:52Speaker 1: Moving ahead, well, I mean sure, uh, I mean Nick Foles.
- 31:57Speaker 1: And I was reading Frank Reich's comments this week, and
- 32:00Speaker 1: he's obviously the head coach of the Indianapolis Colts. He
- 32:03Speaker 1: was the offensive coordinator with Nick when they won the
- 32:05Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and his comments about Nick, when he got
- 32:09Speaker 1: to the Nick's ability to throw the football deep, he
- 32:12Speaker 1: was right. I thought he was pretty accurate, but but
- 32:15Speaker 1: it was very revealing he said that he thinks that.
- 32:17Speaker 1: And I'll read the quote team because I wanted to
- 32:19Speaker 1: make sure that I got it right. When we talked
- 32:20Speaker 1: about him there, he said he's elite throwing the ball
- 32:23Speaker 1: downfield as a passer. Elite. Elite means that you're one
- 32:27Speaker 1: of the top three, four, maybe five guys in the
- 32:31Speaker 1: league at throwing the deep ball. And that's the level
- 32:33Speaker 1: of respect that Frank Wright has for Nick FOLESO as
- 32:37Speaker 1: a head coach of an opponent coming up, if he
- 32:40Speaker 1: is expecting that, then what is he doing. He's gonna
- 32:43Speaker 1: pull the safety back a little bit maybe and make
- 32:46Speaker 1: sure that Nick Foles doesn't have that elite thrown ability
- 32:49Speaker 1: on a deep ball, which may end up weakning that
- 32:52Speaker 1: run defense a little bit for Leonard Fournette. Yeah. Absolutely,
- 32:56Speaker 1: the best friend for Nick Foles going into this game
- 32:58Speaker 1: is going to be a good running game. We talked
- 33:00Speaker 1: about earlier. You can't have the blunt of all the
- 33:03Speaker 1: pressure or the burden on Nick. Folks were coming back
- 33:07Speaker 1: from you know, haven't played until in a half months,
- 33:09Speaker 1: so the offensive line LeVar from that. You know, their
- 33:12Speaker 1: ability to to you know, I think the intermediate game
- 33:16Speaker 1: to show the intermedia game for Nick Fobles. I think
- 33:19Speaker 1: to get into a nice little weather rhythm and lather
- 33:21Speaker 1: will probably be essential going to the game. It's good
- 33:23Speaker 1: that he does have the deep ball, but I'm pretty
- 33:25Speaker 1: sure that starting off in the game, he's gonna start
- 33:28Speaker 1: with the short intermediate stuff. But the running game is
- 33:30Speaker 1: gonna be what's gonna be a central is gonna open
- 33:32Speaker 1: up the lanes for him to try to take the
- 33:34Speaker 1: shots down the field. So running the football, especially at
- 33:38Speaker 1: this time in November and December, it's gonna be an
- 33:41Speaker 1: essential to in the office because you don't ever want
- 33:43Speaker 1: to be one to mention now, the other thing I
- 33:44Speaker 1: think I'm looking forward to when when Minshoe was the quarterback,
- 33:49Speaker 1: we really saw the emergence of d J. Chart Because
- 33:53Speaker 1: when Nick Foles was at the home before the injury,
- 33:57Speaker 1: Chris Conley seemed to be kind of his favorite guy,
- 34:00Speaker 1: and so with Nick coming back, hopefully he finds that
- 34:03Speaker 1: he has two favorite targets because both of those guys
- 34:06Speaker 1: have the ability to stretch the field, and so does
- 34:09Speaker 1: Keelan Cole. You know. So, uh, look, did Jaguars have
- 34:13Speaker 1: some great speed at receiver? I mean they really do.
- 34:15Speaker 1: They have four legitimate guys that can take the top
- 34:18Speaker 1: off of defense. And my fourth guy, c J Board
- 34:21Speaker 1: in that equation, who's who's not active all the time,
- 34:23Speaker 1: but when he is active, he can take the top
- 34:25Speaker 1: off of the defense. And with a quarterback that has
- 34:29Speaker 1: the deep ball ability like Nick Foles, it it's gonna
- 34:31Speaker 1: be interesting to see how aggressive they are as an offense,
- 34:37Speaker 1: you know, with him and that ability to throw the ball. Well.
- 34:39Speaker 1: Being about that, uh, speaking of going back to fort
- 34:42Speaker 1: that he was in the locker room today. We heard
- 34:44Speaker 1: from him obviously earlier and I asked him, you know, you,
- 34:47Speaker 1: this is the time of year. We're in the past
- 34:48Speaker 1: couple of years, you've been banged up a little bit
- 34:50Speaker 1: or you know not, things aren't going well. And I've
- 34:54Speaker 1: asked him, what's the difference this year's well, well, the
- 34:56Speaker 1: good lord and the training he did in the offseason
- 34:59Speaker 1: to kind of get him but back on track. He's
- 35:01Speaker 1: keeping his weight down this year and he mentioned those
- 35:03Speaker 1: things and it's above the shoulders too, And then I
- 35:07Speaker 1: asked him, you know, has the weight thing really been that?
- 35:10Speaker 1: How much of a challenge has that been over here?
- 35:12Speaker 1: Is He's like, well, I get up in the mornings,
- 35:14Speaker 1: you feel good. Sometimes you want to eat a cookie.
- 35:16Speaker 1: Well he doesn't. He doesn't do that anymore. He does
- 35:18Speaker 1: better decisions for the football team. And I think that's
- 35:20Speaker 1: a that's a maturing answer from Leonard Fournette. You know,
- 35:24Speaker 1: I think he's done a tremendous job in leon You
- 35:27Speaker 1: can point to all the training and all that that
- 35:29Speaker 1: you want, but when a man's mind is right, it
- 35:33Speaker 1: gives you the ability to perform at a higher level.
- 35:36Speaker 1: And uh, in Leonard Fournette clearly is performing at his
- 35:39Speaker 1: highest level that we've seen yet. Does he have another
- 35:42Speaker 1: level that he can reach? I hope so, because I
- 35:45Speaker 1: saw some things when he was at l s U
- 35:47Speaker 1: that made just go wow. And that's why I made
- 35:49Speaker 1: the comment a couple of years ago that I thought
- 35:51Speaker 1: he was a generation of running back. But uh, I
- 35:54Speaker 1: think that's been the biggest change in Leonard Fournett is
- 35:58Speaker 1: what's going on upstairs. It's maturity and that tool you
- 36:02Speaker 1: use between your two shoulders, your brain. He's doing that.
- 36:06Speaker 1: He's making wise decisions not only want the field, but
- 36:08Speaker 1: off the year. And he understands, uh that this time
- 36:13Speaker 1: in the NFL to short lived, and you gotta maximize
- 36:17Speaker 1: each and every season before because before you know it,
- 36:19Speaker 1: I mean lots no best before you know it. If
- 36:21Speaker 1: things goes past, it goes by you. And the last
- 36:24Speaker 1: thing you wanted as a player to have any regrets.
- 36:26Speaker 1: You know, you don't want any regrets. And if he
- 36:28Speaker 1: can control it, if he controlled his habits and stuff
- 36:31Speaker 1: he does on and off the field, he continued to
- 36:33Speaker 1: have these kind of years year and the kind of
- 36:35Speaker 1: years he's having year any year out Terry Robiski, I mean,
- 36:38Speaker 1: let's stay give him a little bit of credit to that,
- 36:41Speaker 1: and uh and give the head coach from credit because
- 36:44Speaker 1: Doug Marone was the one who instituted the change of
- 36:49Speaker 1: letting the running backs coach go and then bringing in
- 36:51Speaker 1: Terry Rubinski, a longtime coach in the National Football League
- 36:55Speaker 1: who has ties to Louisiana. Who Oh, by the way,
- 36:59Speaker 1: it was one of the great as players in l
- 37:00Speaker 1: s Use history. I'm absolute okay. And Leonard Fournette didn't
- 37:04Speaker 1: even know who he was at for Hurst and UH
- 37:06Speaker 1: and so I think the mutual admiration society has kind
- 37:10Speaker 1: of started between Terror Robisky and Leonard Fournette and UH
- 37:13Speaker 1: and it's been really good for both of them. And
- 37:15Speaker 1: you can when you talk to Terry, you can tell
- 37:17Speaker 1: that he's really enjoying coaching Leonard Fournette and and this offense.
- 37:22Speaker 1: Without Leonard Fournette, I think would would be certainly a
- 37:25Speaker 1: lot different our our guests. Next guest, come up. We
- 37:29Speaker 1: had Jim Signarelli earlier from St. Michael's Soldiers, but everybody
- 37:33Speaker 1: knows Abery Jones, Jaguars defensive tackle joining us here in
- 37:38Speaker 1: the Upper West Club. Aby, how are you, sir? What's up?
- 37:42Speaker 1: I wasn't prepared for this such a professional set up
- 37:45Speaker 1: right here, you know, Jeff Logoman and Leon Searcys that
- 37:51Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys have met or not.
- 37:54Speaker 1: Um so here we are. I mean, this is an
- 37:56Speaker 1: unbelievable of that thousand care packages going out, I know
- 37:59Speaker 1: you have of military ties from your background, right. Oh yeah, definitely.
- 38:03Speaker 1: My mom and my dad were both Army. Uh. This
- 38:06Speaker 1: kind of reminds me of when my dad went over
- 38:08Speaker 1: to our Iraq. We had a lot of the foundations
- 38:12Speaker 1: that come on base and to have like supplies for
- 38:15Speaker 1: families to get where it was here and then make
- 38:18Speaker 1: a little care back to just to send to your
- 38:19Speaker 1: dad's and things like that. So this brings back good memories.
- 38:22Speaker 1: So were you in Army bratt moving around from town
- 38:25Speaker 1: to town. I moved quite a bit. I've been to Turkey, Germany, Louisiana, Virginia.
- 38:31Speaker 1: I think I've been to like a France for like
- 38:33Speaker 1: a hot minute. But you know, now where you're young
- 38:36Speaker 1: and all this was happened. So did you enjoy the experience?
- 38:38Speaker 1: Always like you met some friends for a year and
- 38:41Speaker 1: then you had to leave and go to another country. Uh?
- 38:43Speaker 1: It was truthfully was hard because I mean, when uh German,
- 38:48Speaker 1: I got there, it's probably from first grade to fourth grade.
- 38:51Speaker 1: We know people, you know, kids I've been growing up with,
- 38:53Speaker 1: and I had to leave there. And then after that
- 38:56Speaker 1: we moved to like three places year after years. I
- 38:59Speaker 1: really couldn't really set no friends in but I got lucky.
- 39:01Speaker 1: My parents retired as I was going to high school,
- 39:04Speaker 1: so you know, I was able to grow up my
- 39:06Speaker 1: high school friends. It's have some fun here, Leon. You're
- 39:09Speaker 1: a great right tackle obviously for the Jacksonville Jaguars an
- 39:12Speaker 1: early early days. You're one of the top twenty five
- 39:15Speaker 1: jags of all time. Right, let me come on. Avery
- 39:17Speaker 1: Jones has been with this franchise for now seven years
- 39:20Speaker 1: as long as Tenure Jaguar on a un right actively,
- 39:23Speaker 1: I mean, how would you block Avery Jones? Okay, first
- 39:26Speaker 1: of all, he's a one technic alright. That was a
- 39:28Speaker 1: right tax I know. But in theory. So he's saying theory,
- 39:32Speaker 1: let me see, it doesn't seem to have any weak
- 39:34Speaker 1: points I would have to if I lined up against
- 39:37Speaker 1: if it was like, what was cold that I didn't
- 39:39Speaker 1: have it anymore? Oklahoma drive? All right? How about to
- 39:43Speaker 1: do that? Say? I'm saying, if me and Avery Jones
- 39:47Speaker 1: line up each other in Oklahoma, dal, I would find
- 39:49Speaker 1: this weak points in my attack points before I got down,
- 39:53Speaker 1: and then it would have been over. I'm not saying over.
- 39:56Speaker 1: I didn't say he won the r one who I
- 39:58Speaker 1: just said it would be open. Somebody's going to fall
- 40:02Speaker 1: all right, this big joke. I'm just enjoying the conversation
- 40:06Speaker 1: to me at n I mean, I don't care. That's
- 40:10Speaker 1: the funny thing is that every defensive tackle nos tackle
- 40:13Speaker 1: that I've ever known, they've always wanted to be a
- 40:15Speaker 1: defensive end. There's no double teams out there, you know,
- 40:18Speaker 1: sold just feel a little better, you know, back, feel better. Yeah,
- 40:25Speaker 1: I begged the differ. There was a game and it
- 40:28Speaker 1: was and you guys were laughing at this because it
- 40:30Speaker 1: was I want to say, it was in nineteen ninety
- 40:33Speaker 1: ninety two and I'm playing the Raiders when when they
- 40:37Speaker 1: were in Oakland for a little while, and uh and
- 40:41Speaker 1: I was pretty good pastors had ten sacks and ninety
- 40:44Speaker 1: one and so ninety two playing the Raiders out there
- 40:46Speaker 1: at the l A Coliseum. They had a pretty good tackle.
- 40:49Speaker 1: I believe his name was Gerald Perry, and he was
- 40:51Speaker 1: he was a big strong man, and uh and I
- 40:54Speaker 1: was doing okay against him, and so I was. But
- 40:58Speaker 1: they were playing the tight end on my side a lot,
- 41:00Speaker 1: and they were running the counter load, which kind of
- 41:03Speaker 1: load is you know, the I'm a five technique and
- 41:05Speaker 1: the tight end blocks down tackle double teams me and
- 41:08Speaker 1: here comes the full back and then here comes the
- 41:10Speaker 1: offside guard pulling around. And so on the second half
- 41:13Speaker 1: for tap time, I talked to the coach and said, hey,
- 41:15Speaker 1: can I flip through the other side a little bit
- 41:18Speaker 1: because I'm getting a lot of double teams there. That
- 41:20Speaker 1: way we kind of spread the bruises a little bit.
- 41:24Speaker 1: So the first play in the second half, I go
- 41:26Speaker 1: to the other side of the formation and the quarterback
- 41:30Speaker 1: was Evans. He was playing at the time. He was
- 41:32Speaker 1: an older quarterback back up. He was in the game
- 41:34Speaker 1: and he looks around and he goes and he sees
- 41:36Speaker 1: me over. Then he goes check back fifty six. They
- 41:44Speaker 1: change the formation and here comes kind of load to
- 41:46Speaker 1: the other side. To me, I was like, okay, So
- 41:51Speaker 1: so to say that the defensive ends don't get double
- 41:54Speaker 1: teams because I had the tackle and block of me,
- 41:57Speaker 1: the tight end will come in and grab underneath the
- 41:59Speaker 1: leg and then lifted in here comes guarding the fullback
- 42:01Speaker 1: hit me in the head of there on our ways room. Wow. Oh,
- 42:04Speaker 1: I love every Obviously, it's a huge piece of the
- 42:10Speaker 1: schedule coming up from seven games to go. You guys
- 42:13Speaker 1: don't look the big picture thing. But the next two weeks.
- 42:16Speaker 1: I mean, these are games this team's gotta have, right.
- 42:18Speaker 1: How is the feeling in the locker room this week?
- 42:20Speaker 1: Coming off to buy quarterbacks, coming back to division road
- 42:23Speaker 1: games coming up? I mean, you know, spirits are high.
- 42:27Speaker 1: We're coming off the bye week. Uh, guys, come back
- 42:30Speaker 1: with that refresh bye week. It's to get back, get
- 42:33Speaker 1: back on out on a Sunday and things like that.
- 42:35Speaker 1: But we know how big this game is. You know,
- 42:37Speaker 1: we're gonna take a one game at a time, and
- 42:39Speaker 1: we know how we you know, we matched up against
- 42:41Speaker 1: the coach offensive and defensively, and uh, we know, really
- 42:45Speaker 1: we just gotta do our job. I feel like all
- 42:47Speaker 1: year when it came down to us and the games
- 42:49Speaker 1: we're close to, we really beat ourselves. So I feel
- 42:52Speaker 1: like we go out there, we you know, we don't
- 42:54Speaker 1: b s. We're gonna be all right. Well for for
- 42:56Speaker 1: you this week, arguably one of one of your great
- 42:59Speaker 1: chat allenge is that there is all year long because
- 43:02Speaker 1: a breath, you come back from that nice little break
- 43:04Speaker 1: and you turn the film on and you see a
- 43:06Speaker 1: guy by the name of Clinton Nelson. It might be
- 43:09Speaker 1: the best guard at football right now, and you're gonna
- 43:12Speaker 1: have to end up facing him and he gets a
- 43:14Speaker 1: lot of a lot of pub for being one of
- 43:16Speaker 1: the best guards in the league. He's a great challenge
- 43:19Speaker 1: for you this week. He's one of those guys that
- 43:20Speaker 1: likes to get movement. They like to run to football,
- 43:23Speaker 1: and he's he's one of the reasons why they can
- 43:25Speaker 1: run it. Oh yeah, Um, we just gotta accept the challenge.
- 43:29Speaker 1: I mean when you see a guy like that, uh,
- 43:31Speaker 1: defin when we see the talent, when we turn on
- 43:33Speaker 1: the film in our room, things like that, but only
- 43:36Speaker 1: gets you more excited. Go a guy that has a
- 43:38Speaker 1: set of high standard in the league. To go out
- 43:40Speaker 1: there and show what you can do. Make a couple
- 43:42Speaker 1: of plays for yourself. I mean to go on to
- 43:44Speaker 1: his last stretch this season be big as far as
- 43:48Speaker 1: these last seven games and the unlike last year, you're
- 43:51Speaker 1: fouring five. Now you're to think the things. Do you
- 43:54Speaker 1: look at these last seven games as a challenge or
- 43:57Speaker 1: do you look at them as an opportunity? Uh? I
- 44:01Speaker 1: say opportunity because I feel like, you know, we have
- 44:05Speaker 1: you know, with the mishaps of the first game, losing
- 44:07Speaker 1: Nick and stuff like that, we really showed a team
- 44:08Speaker 1: that could stay together and just didn't, you know, let
- 44:11Speaker 1: this thing just get blown up. So I feel like
- 44:14Speaker 1: the opportunity is, with the ABC being so tight where
- 44:16Speaker 1: we at, we have the opportunity really go on to run,
- 44:18Speaker 1: take it one game at a time and really set
- 44:21Speaker 1: ourselves up for a wild card or hopefully better if
- 44:23Speaker 1: you know, if we get looking enough or anything like that.
- 44:26Speaker 1: What is what has Nick Foles been like for you
- 44:29Speaker 1: to to kind of experience in the locker room a
- 44:32Speaker 1: quarterback that comes in from a different team and so
- 44:35Speaker 1: many people talk about some of his some of his confident,
- 44:39Speaker 1: humble waves and how he's made and then a big
- 44:42Speaker 1: impact in the locker room. Your thoughts on him as
- 44:45Speaker 1: a later in a quarterback of your team. Um, you know, uh,
- 44:49Speaker 1: you always hear good things about Nikki before he got here,
- 44:51Speaker 1: But when he got here, I was kind of funny
- 44:54Speaker 1: to me because he seemed like a movie quarterback, you know,
- 44:59Speaker 1: says the right things. When a speech is heated, the
- 45:02Speaker 1: team needs to be talked to, He's there to say
- 45:04Speaker 1: at the right time. It's never an overwinded speech. It's
- 45:08Speaker 1: straight to the point. He's talking to the guys. He's
- 45:11Speaker 1: expressing how good we can be, how much he has,
- 45:13Speaker 1: you know, a love for his team. So I mean
- 45:16Speaker 1: you go, you know, you go to battle with a
- 45:18Speaker 1: guy like that any day. So I mean we all
- 45:20Speaker 1: feed off that energy. We fed off the energy of
- 45:23Speaker 1: how he was there to support Gardener, you know, no
- 45:25Speaker 1: matter knowing what the situation could have came out of that.
- 45:28Speaker 1: Things like that. So that's the guy you always want
- 45:30Speaker 1: to fight with. Every good stuff. Thank you for coming
- 45:33Speaker 1: to join us here. Enjoy the event tonight. Man appreciate
- 45:36Speaker 1: Avery Jones always wanted to go to guys in the

- 49:52Speaker 1: you doing? What's going on? Uh? I'm feeling good man.
- 49:56Speaker 1: Todays you know, we got done with practice, not gone
- 49:58Speaker 1: be with my family, you know in quality time on
- 50:01Speaker 1: the couch. Uh so important, you know, it's important. It's
- 50:04Speaker 1: it's good that you need to get that, you know.
- 50:06Speaker 1: But you know, I'm I feel like we're doing good
- 50:09Speaker 1: so fast. How was how was your bye week? It
- 50:12Speaker 1: was great? You know, I got to spend a lot
- 50:14Speaker 1: of time with my family. Um, you know, time that
- 50:16Speaker 1: I normally don't get, especially on the weekdays. So you know,
- 50:19Speaker 1: just waking up to them to see what their routine
- 50:22Speaker 1: is is uh, you know, it's kind of something I'm
- 50:24Speaker 1: not used to. You know, I want to sleep in,
- 50:26Speaker 1: but they're kind of up. So it's like I had
- 50:29Speaker 1: to bounce that out. Yeah you have you have to
- 50:31Speaker 1: buy buy their roles, right, really though, really I couldn't
- 50:34Speaker 1: just sleep in like I imagine I was gonna be.
- 50:37Speaker 1: But you know, it's the persons of being the father
- 50:40Speaker 1: they and being a young parent you start to learn
- 50:44Speaker 1: to adjust. Is that when the young and laid down
- 50:46Speaker 1: and taking nap, you do too. But then it's like
- 50:50Speaker 1: you know, when you sleep that's my time, I can
- 50:52Speaker 1: go do something by myself, like you know what I mean.
- 50:54Speaker 1: I can watch TV finally, you know what I mean,
- 50:57Speaker 1: I can probably put the game. But then also I
- 50:59Speaker 1: can study, so you know, but you know it's my
- 51:03Speaker 1: wife helps me out a lot, you know, she let
- 51:05Speaker 1: me have my time, and uh, you know, I appreciate.
- 51:08Speaker 1: How do you feel mentally? Officially because they always talk
- 51:11Speaker 1: about rookies that come in it usually play twelve games
- 51:14Speaker 1: in college, you got to play six teams here. How
- 51:16Speaker 1: you how you doing mentally physically to go for this
- 51:19Speaker 1: run the next seton game? I feel like mentally, I
- 51:22Speaker 1: feel like I'm I feel like I'm the best I've
- 51:24Speaker 1: felt since I started, like right now to this day.
- 51:27Speaker 1: Like when we first got back Monday, I felt so
- 51:30Speaker 1: good because it was stuff I was dealing with, you know,
- 51:32Speaker 1: the stresses and all that that I had to invent
- 51:35Speaker 1: the people, had to talk to people because I was
- 51:36Speaker 1: holding that in. But then when I let all that
- 51:39Speaker 1: out and people was giving me their input, people telling
- 51:41Speaker 1: me how to deal with it. Uh, you know, I
- 51:44Speaker 1: was taking that in. Now I feel like I feel better.
- 51:47Speaker 1: I feel like I can play faster. I feel like,
- 51:49Speaker 1: you know, my minds, you know, and and and dominating
- 51:53Speaker 1: another opponent and like, you know, like I said, so
- 51:56Speaker 1: that's why I felt like I feel strong. Question, do
- 51:59Speaker 1: you know the rookie record well sexon one season here
- 52:03Speaker 1: or no? No, no, oh, yeah, that's I mean, that's
- 52:11Speaker 1: has one of the goals, you know what I mean.
- 52:12Speaker 1: But that's not nothing. I'm like, I need to get
- 52:15Speaker 1: that or if I don't know, I'm not gonna be
- 52:17Speaker 1: a good player. I'm you know, I'm taking a game
- 52:19Speaker 1: by game, you know what I'm saying. And you know,
- 52:21Speaker 1: if it happens, it happens. It's a huge accomplishment. That's
- 52:24Speaker 1: something I want to do. But you know that's not
- 52:26Speaker 1: my end goal. Man. Yeah. So it's one of one
- 52:30Speaker 1: of the things I think that you talked about at
- 52:33Speaker 1: the very beginning of the season, that you have so
- 52:35Speaker 1: many different people and resources to lean on for a
- 52:38Speaker 1: rookie season, whether it be coaches, whether it be veterans,
- 52:42Speaker 1: whether it be the strength coach, making sure you're staying
- 52:45Speaker 1: up with taking care of your body, nutritionists and uh
- 52:49Speaker 1: and and I remember listening to how you talked about
- 52:52Speaker 1: that early year. You said, look, I'm doing everything they
- 52:54Speaker 1: tell me to do. And that's got to help you
- 52:57Speaker 1: at this point of the season with your body and
- 52:59Speaker 1: how feel I mean, to this day, I still do
- 53:03Speaker 1: U because every input is a good input. I feel
- 53:05Speaker 1: like theyre trying to help me. I don't know about
- 53:08Speaker 1: I don't know nothing about that. They know more than
- 53:10Speaker 1: I do. So I'm gonna listen to the experts and uh,
- 53:13Speaker 1: you know, just I feel like, you know, I had
- 53:15Speaker 1: my bumps and bruises just like every other football player.
- 53:18Speaker 1: But you know, it is what it is. I still
- 53:20Speaker 1: go every Saturday practice every day, uh like like there's
- 53:24Speaker 1: nothing wrong with me. But when I get home, I
- 53:26Speaker 1: feel all that. But you know, that's just a football
- 53:29Speaker 1: player and that's life. So it is what it is.
- 53:33Speaker 1: Josh Allen with his son Jaguar's Happy Hour or at
- 53:36Speaker 1: the Upper West Club at t i A A bank field,
- 53:39Speaker 1: big stretch of games coming up here, obviously Division game
- 53:42Speaker 1: on the road this week in Indianapolis. How it has
- 53:45Speaker 1: the feeling been in the locker room this week of
- 53:48Speaker 1: of I don't know if it's a must win field,
- 53:50Speaker 1: but it's pretty darne close to that, Josh. I mean,
- 53:53Speaker 1: you know, I feel like I feel like, once you
- 53:54Speaker 1: get into that must win. I feel like, then that's
- 53:56Speaker 1: when you start reaching. And I feel like, you know,
- 53:59Speaker 1: once you get the reach, and then you start acting
- 54:01Speaker 1: out of your character, and then you start acting different,
- 54:03Speaker 1: then you start playing different. So I feel like what
- 54:05Speaker 1: coach Marone, you know, I'm glad he said, was, man,
- 54:09Speaker 1: just take a day by day, you know what I mean.
- 54:11Speaker 1: Let let that happen. If you practice good, man, you're
- 54:13Speaker 1: gonna play good. So practice, you know, practice now, practice
- 54:16Speaker 1: like you're gonna play in the game, and you know,
- 54:18Speaker 1: and you know, and then I put that into my
- 54:20Speaker 1: own words and and I feel like that's how guys
- 54:22Speaker 1: are seeing it. And that's why I feel like I
- 54:24Speaker 1: felt like, that's when we're gonna grow. It's when we
- 54:27Speaker 1: don't feel like it's a must win, we gotta do it,
- 54:29Speaker 1: we gotta do it. And that's when you start making
- 54:30Speaker 1: errors like you done. That's when you start, you know,
- 54:33Speaker 1: overdoing things. And then and then you overdo it, you're
- 54:35Speaker 1: messing up the whole team, you know what I mean. So, uh,
- 54:39Speaker 1: you know, it's a must win, it is, but um,
- 54:42Speaker 1: then again, it's like it's another game, and it's a
- 54:44Speaker 1: game you know that we try to win every week.
- 54:46Speaker 1: So and it pus is a division game, so you know,
- 54:49Speaker 1: we just gotta bring that a game and uh, you know,
- 54:51Speaker 1: execute and we'll be all right. A division game against
- 54:55Speaker 1: against an opponent that wants to run the football. They've
- 54:57Speaker 1: been pretty good at it. It's a great challenge for
- 54:59Speaker 1: you guys. Their offensive lines a pretty good unit. I mean, yeah,
- 55:03Speaker 1: you know we were pretty good. You know, we're pretty
- 55:05Speaker 1: good unit to uh so you know we uh so
- 55:09Speaker 1: we got to let people know that, uh you know,
- 55:11Speaker 1: we're going to get us a good offense. We're going
- 55:12Speaker 1: to get a good offensive line, and we feel like
- 55:15Speaker 1: we're one of the best defensive line. So we put
- 55:19Speaker 1: we put the pressure on us, you know what I mean, uh,
- 55:21Speaker 1: to to stop the run. You know what I mean,
- 55:24Speaker 1: like the safeties, the you know, the linebackers of course
- 55:27Speaker 1: are in it, but like we put it, we put
- 55:30Speaker 1: that to us to stop this run. And you know,
- 55:33Speaker 1: it's all up to us. I felt like this game,
- 55:34Speaker 1: the front seven as a wholes all up to us
- 55:36Speaker 1: to stop this game. And uh, you know, we we've
- 55:39Speaker 1: been practicing that. We've been you know, looking really good
- 55:42Speaker 1: and you know we'll know on Sundays the practice is
- 55:46Speaker 1: going well. This week to your point earlier. Every day
- 55:48Speaker 1: you kind of focus on that day at hand. How
- 55:50Speaker 1: has the week been, just in general? I mean it's
- 55:53Speaker 1: so far, so good. Uh. I feel like it's not
- 55:55Speaker 1: even about like making a lot, but it is. It's
- 55:57Speaker 1: just about being consistent every day. And like, you know,
- 56:00Speaker 1: if you had a great practice yesterday, I feel like
- 56:03Speaker 1: you should come out and have a great practice today.
- 56:05Speaker 1: Just being consistent and you know, and I feel like
- 56:09Speaker 1: guys have been doing. I feel like I have been doing.
- 56:10Speaker 1: I feel like Kolla's Yahn, you know, Miles, guys like
- 56:13Speaker 1: that have been consistent with their practices and with their plays,
- 56:16Speaker 1: and you know, that's that's what makes you a good team.
- 56:19Speaker 1: And you know, and you know that's just what we
- 56:21Speaker 1: gotta do it. How about the event here tonight. St.
- 56:24Speaker 1: Michael's Soldiers, care packages for troops, two volunteers, the entire
- 56:28Speaker 1: Jaguars team, and on the other side, pros versus g
- 56:31Speaker 1: I Joe's video games. This is pretty cool, John, I
- 56:34Speaker 1: should have to hold the scheme up here, helping out
- 56:36Speaker 1: with the troops. Don't forget about the fair. You know
- 56:38Speaker 1: you can see the fair, you know what I mean. So,
- 56:42Speaker 1: but you know it's a great opportunity for us to
- 56:44Speaker 1: interact with the fans and interact with the soldiers and
- 56:48Speaker 1: you know, know that we're here for them. And uh,
- 56:50Speaker 1: you know, jacksonvill was real big on the soldiers and
- 56:53Speaker 1: helping them and salute to the soldiers, you know, and
- 57:00Speaker 1: and that made need more more active, being more proactive
- 57:04Speaker 1: to it and want to help out as much as
- 57:06Speaker 1: I can. And uh, just being here spending time with
- 57:09Speaker 1: them is also great. And sending them care pactes, writing
- 57:11Speaker 1: them letters, it's something that they can always hold up.
- 57:14Speaker 1: What not the candy, but the letter they can always
- 57:16Speaker 1: hold on to that, you know what I mean. And
- 57:18Speaker 1: it's it's just awesome to be a part of. And
- 57:20Speaker 1: you guys have special practice jerseys, right, I mean, I know, man,
- 57:23Speaker 1: I don't like it. Man, it's kind of big. No, No,
- 57:28Speaker 1: I'm sorry. The camouflage jerseys. That's the camouf I wish
- 57:33Speaker 1: we could have them all all year. I really like it,
- 57:36Speaker 1: you know, but win know next week we're backing them,
- 57:40Speaker 1: so you can't get too comfortable with them. But the
- 57:42Speaker 1: pictures that we got, you know, they're really good and
- 57:44Speaker 1: they'll be auctioned off for charity for the Jaguars Foundation
- 57:48Speaker 1: coming up. Yeah, how about that so you might can uh,
- 57:50Speaker 1: you know, by your own I'm just saying, I don't know.
- 57:56Speaker 1: That's up to you. I'm sure you can arrange to
- 57:58Speaker 1: get Josh good stuff. Good luck to you this week.
- 58:02Speaker 1: Let's get a W in Indianapolis. How about that. Josh Allens,
- 58:05Speaker 1: Jaguars defensive enjoining us here on Jaguars Happy our last
- 58:09Speaker 1: couple of minutes here with Leon Searcy and Jeff Lagman.
- 58:12Speaker 1: And as we said with all those guys, thank you Josh,
- 58:15Speaker 1: Josh Allen joining us, Avery Jones, Jim Signorelli earlier. Huge
- 58:20Speaker 1: swing game for this Jaguars team. If they win this
- 58:22Speaker 1: thing here here, we are second place, no matter what's
- 58:24Speaker 1: happening with Houston at the top. They've got a tough game,
- 58:27Speaker 1: by the way against the the Baltimore Ravens this week,
- 58:30Speaker 1: and this thing can swing the right way. Well, last
- 58:33Speaker 1: week was an opportunity to gain control of your own
- 58:35Speaker 1: destiny and you lost that. Now is to maintain your hope,
- 58:41Speaker 1: uh in your playoff lives and to keep it a
- 58:44Speaker 1: lot and so it's an important game, it's uh. And
- 58:47Speaker 1: obviously Josh doesn't want to put the emphasence about being
- 58:50Speaker 1: in a Busch win game and man, it's about as
- 58:52Speaker 1: big as it can get huge. Yeah, well, you know
- 58:55Speaker 1: what's good. Unlike last year, this team was on the
- 58:57Speaker 1: five Day and Losi Street last year. Now you got
- 59:00Speaker 1: a game of relevance. This this is over. This game,
- 59:02Speaker 1: this Sunday's relevant. If the Jaguars want to stand hot
- 59:05Speaker 1: to the possibility and moving forward in the playoffs, they
- 59:09Speaker 1: gotta have this win on Sunday. I guess the division
- 59:11Speaker 1: of Leon. We'll talk to you on Saturday. Leon Searcy,
- 59:15Speaker 1: big right tackle, joining us, of course, said Jeff Blagman.
- 59:18Speaker 1: Stick around for those on our network. Here we'll have
