0:48
Speaker 4: the Raiders at two and five. The Jaguars are four
0:50
Speaker 4: and three at the bye week, both teams coming off
0:53
Speaker 4: of bye and of course, the Raiders last week or
0:55
Speaker 4: before the bye week, got shut out thirty one nothing
0:58
Speaker 4: against the Chiefs and held the ball for seventeen minutes,
1:01
Speaker 4: had only thirty offensive plays in the game. They've made
1:05
Speaker 4: a few changes since then. They added Tyler Lockett the
1:08
Speaker 4: wide receiver. Brock Bauers is coming off injury the tight
1:11
Speaker 4: end as well. But this is a Jaguars team that
1:14
Speaker 4: has also dropped some games going into the bye week.
1:17
Speaker 4: They of course lost to Seattle and then of course
1:20
Speaker 4: the London game against the Rams. Really struggled in that one. Defensively,
1:24
Speaker 4: some big plays against them, the offense inconsistent, but trying
1:27
Speaker 4: to get back on track.
1:28
Speaker 3: With the bye week.
1:29
Speaker 4: And we've got the guys in studio now, Tony Biselli,
1:33
Speaker 4: James Gladstone joining us on jags h Q. Tonight, gentlemen,
1:39
Speaker 4: good afternoon to you, and how is your bye week?
1:42
Speaker 3: Tony?
1:43
Speaker 5: It was miserable.
1:45
Speaker 6: Oh, you have to sit with the loss for all
1:49
Speaker 6: those extra days.
1:51
Speaker 3: That's what duff just talked about.
1:52
Speaker 4: We had Mark Dufner in here and he's like, that
1:53
Speaker 4: is the longest week and you lose going into the
1:56
Speaker 4: by it's just brutal.
1:57
Speaker 5: Oh, brutal.
2:00
Speaker 6: Now, it was great to spend time extra time with
2:02
Speaker 6: the family and see you know, Angie and the kids,
2:04
Speaker 6: and and that was that was that was the best part.
2:08
Speaker 6: But man, sitting with a loss and Uh, having to
2:12
Speaker 6: wait to get back on the field and have our
2:14
Speaker 6: players coaches get back out there and try to, you know,
2:17
Speaker 6: go get that taste out of your mouth.
2:19
Speaker 5: It's a it's a long one to sit with.
2:21
Speaker 4: Yeah, James that we hear a lot about self scouting
2:24
Speaker 4: and the coaching staff going through operations and what they
2:27
Speaker 4: can do in different situations, both sides of the football,
2:30
Speaker 4: special teams as well. But from a GM's perspective, how
2:34
Speaker 4: involved are you in that and what's a bye week
2:37
Speaker 4: like for you?
2:38
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's a great question to ask, and
2:40
Speaker 2: it's it's not all that different. It's not diving as
2:43
Speaker 2: deep into the schematic self scout as much as it
2:46
Speaker 2: is personnel self scout and seeing what trends there might
2:50
Speaker 2: be that are showing themselves and how we might modify
2:53
Speaker 2: some of the modes operation and who internally we feel
2:56
Speaker 2: like it could use some shifting in terms of a
2:59
Speaker 2: place or volume and being able to work through those
3:03
Speaker 2: things in conjunction with our coaching staff as they do
3:05
Speaker 2: the same from a schematic lens. And you know, that
3:08
Speaker 2: was certainly a good moment of pause and reflection. It
3:13
Speaker 2: allows for that because you're not preparing for an upcoming
3:16
Speaker 2: opponent or enemy, and you can sort of look in
3:18
Speaker 2: word instead of looking outward as you get into that
3:22
Speaker 2: rhythm over the course of a season. And obviously at
3:25
Speaker 2: this point we're not even halfway through, so we still
3:28
Speaker 2: got a lot of ball left. And you know, Liam
3:30
Speaker 2: had a great perspective share for the team earlier this
3:36
Speaker 2: week said, look for any rookie, any first year player
3:38
Speaker 2: that's in this room, guess what, you still have an
3:41
Speaker 2: entire college football season in front of you. You know
3:43
Speaker 2: we're not we're seven games in, but guess you got
3:46
Speaker 2: an entire season.
3:47
Speaker 7: That you're used to still on the horizon, no doubt.
3:50
Speaker 4: Ten more covering up for the Jaggars hopefully a lot
3:52
Speaker 4: more in that playoff games on top of that as well.
3:55
Speaker 4: James Gladstone Tony Poselli with us, I'm you know, I'm
3:57
Speaker 4: flipping around X the other day the bio and all
4:00
Speaker 4: of a sudden, I see, oh, Brian Thomas Junior on
4:03
Speaker 4: the trade block, all these things, all these stories come
4:06
Speaker 4: out during the bye week.
4:07
Speaker 5: It was great.
4:08
Speaker 8: It was news to me too, right, I mean, when
4:10
Speaker 8: you see stuff like that, how real does some of
4:12
Speaker 8: that happen? I mean, it's by way the deadlines November four,
4:16
Speaker 8: that's coming up, that's right, So these.
4:18
Speaker 3: Stories pop out there. How real was it? And how
4:21
Speaker 3: surprised were you to see some things like that?
4:23
Speaker 2: It's always a little surprising because I think if there's
4:26
Speaker 2: any understanding of how we move, how we operate, we're
4:30
Speaker 2: not sharing with the world, right, that sort of thing.
4:33
Speaker 2: So anything that comes to life in those types of
4:36
Speaker 2: settings or those types of delivery, it's it's unlikely to
4:40
Speaker 2: be any source of accurate information. But nonetheless, I think
4:46
Speaker 2: it's fair to say that Brian Thomas Junior is a
4:48
Speaker 2: part of this this football team moving forward, and there's
4:51
Speaker 2: a clear vision for his involvement in it, and looking
4:54
Speaker 2: forward to seeing us take steps to continue to feature
4:58
Speaker 2: him and get the best out of his capabilities, and
5:01
Speaker 2: seeing our offense flourish in the way that we know
5:03
Speaker 2: it has the chance to do. And I know that
5:06
Speaker 2: Liam our coaching staff, they're using the first let's call
5:12
Speaker 2: it seven games of the season to sort of work
5:16
Speaker 2: off of and be able to elevate, as we mentioned,
5:19
Speaker 2: into this ten game stretch, knowing that Brian's going to
5:23
Speaker 2: be a big feature of that.
5:25
Speaker 6: You know, it's funny when James said that kind of
5:27
Speaker 6: how we have operated made me think back to pre
5:30
Speaker 6: draft listening to.
5:31
Speaker 5: All the things we're gonna do at this point too,
5:37
Speaker 5: Like we're drafting, we're trading for drafts, hunter and they're
5:42
Speaker 5: gonna do this, and they're gonna do that. They're gonna
5:43
Speaker 5: do it, and I'm like, well, that's interesting.
5:45
Speaker 6: So sometimes you I find it amusing, you know, whether
5:49
Speaker 6: it's hearing talk radio or reading something on X or whatever.
5:53
Speaker 5: I'm like, wow, that's interesting. I didn't know we were doing.
5:57
Speaker 3: That these conversations.
6:00
Speaker 5: I have missed that.
6:01
Speaker 3: That meeting.
6:02
Speaker 4: I love that James Gladstone, Tony was selly with us
6:06
Speaker 4: and the we'll get into the Raiders coming up in
6:08
Speaker 4: just a little bit, but a little more on the
6:11
Speaker 4: Jaguars perspective coming out of the bye week and some
6:15
Speaker 4: of the issues penalties, drop passes, last week, defense had
6:20
Speaker 4: it get away. It's a Hall of Fame quarterback and things,
6:22
Speaker 4: but where is the fourth efficulty. I'm gonna interrupt you
6:26
Speaker 4: if there's a lot of good here too.
6:27
Speaker 3: That was my point.
6:28
Speaker 6: That's what I was going and I appreciate that because
6:30
Speaker 6: I think so much of the narrative of this bye
6:32
Speaker 6: week and again find it actually very amusing. Is listen,
6:38
Speaker 6: we lost two games. We played two really good football teams.
6:42
Speaker 6: We didn't play good enough to win. We got beat
6:44
Speaker 6: in two different games. You know, multiple opportunities against Seattle
6:48
Speaker 6: to go tie that game up.
6:50
Speaker 5: Have to make plays, and you.
6:51
Speaker 6: Talk about drops one score, You talked about drops and
6:54
Speaker 6: penalties and and just miscues. Players are there to be made.
6:57
Speaker 6: We just make them and that's the NFL. And then
7:00
Speaker 6: we faced a really good football team in the Rams
7:02
Speaker 6: and we did not play well. However, that does not
7:05
Speaker 6: change the fact that this is a good football team,
7:07
Speaker 6: and this team has done a lot of really good things.
7:09
Speaker 6: And I think the message to our players is like, hey,
7:12
Speaker 6: we've got to go make plays, go back to being
7:13
Speaker 6: who we are.
7:15
Speaker 3: It's a long season.
7:16
Speaker 6: We had a lot of football in front of us,
7:18
Speaker 6: and James mentioned Lee mentioned to the team ten games
7:23
Speaker 6: full season for a lot of these guys in their
7:25
Speaker 6: immediate past, and so I think the focus has been, Yeah,
7:28
Speaker 6: we got to clean things up. Every team needs to
7:31
Speaker 6: clean things up. We can be better at penalties, pre
7:34
Speaker 6: snapped especially. We can be better offensively, defensively, coaching, front office,
7:40
Speaker 6: the whole building can get better and the moment we
7:42
Speaker 6: stopped believing or the moment we believe we've arrived. I
7:46
Speaker 6: don't care if we were seven or zero or what
7:48
Speaker 6: our record is. Then that's when you get comfortable and
7:51
Speaker 6: you get in trouble. And so we're always gonna have
7:54
Speaker 6: things to correct, but also at the same time, let's
7:55
Speaker 6: not lose sight of that that we've accomplished a lot
7:58
Speaker 6: of good things. Can't rest on that, and we got
8:02
Speaker 6: a bunch of football in front of us, but we
8:03
Speaker 6: have to build on. So often you talk about in
8:07
Speaker 6: these settings, especially coming up a loss, going into a buy,
8:10
Speaker 6: is all the things you do wrong.
8:13
Speaker 5: It's so easy. Human nature is to focus on the.
8:16
Speaker 6: Negatives, right, and while the negatives need to be made
8:20
Speaker 6: aware and you have to address those, I think building something,
8:24
Speaker 6: and building is what we're trying to build here.
8:26
Speaker 5: Is you also have to focus.
8:27
Speaker 6: On what are you doing well? And let's make sure
8:30
Speaker 6: we keep on diving into what we do well. How
8:33
Speaker 6: have we won games, how have we operated, how's our
8:35
Speaker 6: defense or offense played, Where are the strengths, and let's
8:39
Speaker 6: start diving into that as well and build upon that,
8:41
Speaker 6: while at the same time recognizing there's things to clean
8:44
Speaker 6: up but you can't. Just so often, and I know
8:48
Speaker 6: it's human nature. We just want to focus on, Oh,
8:51
Speaker 6: the world is falling apart, it's the sky is falling.
8:54
Speaker 6: Oh my gosh, we can't do anything right, and that's
8:56
Speaker 6: just not the case.
8:57
Speaker 3: The Jags are four and three.
8:58
Speaker 4: There's only seven teams in the AFC a better record,
9:00
Speaker 4: so they're right there on the doorstep of a playoff situation.
9:04
Speaker 3: If it ended today, it doesn't end today. A lot
9:06
Speaker 3: of football things.
9:09
Speaker 4: You've got to be in that mix, though, if it's
9:10
Speaker 4: one and six, it's a different feel. You know, four
9:13
Speaker 4: and three that's a fantastic start to build and growth.
9:17
Speaker 3: Well we know this if you look at the.
9:20
Speaker 6: History of the league at this point, there's teams with
9:23
Speaker 6: winning records who are gonna end up with losing records,
9:26
Speaker 6: and there are teams with losing records right now they're
9:28
Speaker 6: gonna end up in the playoffs. And what does that
9:32
Speaker 6: tell you. Don't get comfortable, don't get too discouraged. It's
9:35
Speaker 6: a lot everything's right in front of you, as we've
9:37
Speaker 6: said multiple times now, but you have to have that
9:39
Speaker 6: mindset because and you can't worry about what's ahead of
9:43
Speaker 6: anything beyond and I know, JP. You know, all the
9:47
Speaker 6: years that you, Pete and I did the show on
9:49
Speaker 6: Monday nights, Pete would give me a hard time because
9:51
Speaker 6: I'd always say, let's not look ahead, it's one game
9:53
Speaker 6: at a time. He said, Oh, that's just Coach Speaker,
9:55
Speaker 6: that's just and but that's the actual reality. Nothing else
10:00
Speaker 6: matters than this Raiders game. I mean, we say it
10:06
Speaker 6: kind of ingest sometimes, but it's actually true. It's the
10:08
Speaker 6: most important game in the history of the franchise coming up.
10:11
Speaker 6: And why because it's the next one. Because what we've
10:14
Speaker 6: done today to get the four and three doesn't matter.
10:19
Speaker 6: What happens after we play the Raiders really doesn't matter
10:23
Speaker 6: at this point. So we just got to go beat
10:25
Speaker 6: a good Raiders team, a team that is coming off
10:27
Speaker 6: of buye as well as getting a lot of their
10:29
Speaker 6: players back healthy, beat us last year in that stadium,
10:35
Speaker 6: and so it's a great challenge ahead of us, and like,
10:36
Speaker 6: let's just focus on that.
10:37
Speaker 5: Let's get that done and we'll be fine.
10:39
Speaker 3: Let's come back.
10:40
Speaker 4: We'll dig into the Raiders a little bit and some
10:42
Speaker 4: of the personnel for that Las Vegas team and plenty
10:45
Speaker 4: more ahead as the Jaguars face the Raiders in Week nine.
10:49
Speaker 4: This Sunday, it's Jaggs HQ on the Jaguars Radio Network.
10:58
Speaker 1: Welcome Back Jaggs HQ, presented by Fresh from Florida, continues
11:03
Speaker 1: right now.
11:14
Speaker 3: Nine Allegiance Stadium, Las Vegas.
11:16
Speaker 4: Second year in a row that Jaguars have visited Sinton City,
11:20
Speaker 4: as Tony referenced a loss there last year when Rock
11:24
Speaker 4: Bowers put up eleven catches in ninety nine yards.
11:26
Speaker 3: On this team.
11:29
Speaker 4: But hold on, James, let's get your microphone on, James Test.
11:33
Speaker 3: There you go, You're on. Now, what's up?
11:35
Speaker 2: He wasn't the only rookie showing out in that matchup? Now, Yeah, true,
11:39
Speaker 2: Jaggs had a couple who showed up. Oh, there's no doubt, Mason.
11:43
Speaker 2: That is a outcoming party, you know. See, so they
11:47
Speaker 2: got a little comfort level in that stadium.
11:50
Speaker 3: I like that.
11:51
Speaker 4: I need to get some of that back this year
11:53
Speaker 4: as well, no doubt. Let's let's get into this Raiders team.
11:56
Speaker 4: And you know they were shut out before the bye
11:59
Speaker 4: week and had like thirty plays.
12:01
Speaker 3: On offense, held the fun game seventeen minutes or something.
12:05
Speaker 2: Those are odd ones that as a as a team,
12:07
Speaker 2: if you go through that, if you experienced something like that,
12:09
Speaker 2: it just it feels strange, you know. I know they
12:12
Speaker 2: weren't at full health, and I think that played a
12:14
Speaker 2: big part in that. You know, you look back to
12:16
Speaker 2: their Week one matchup in New England when they were
12:19
Speaker 2: at full strength.
12:20
Speaker 7: That's a tough outfit, you know.
12:22
Speaker 2: New England, we've come to understand, is a really good
12:25
Speaker 2: team at this point in time. And I think that
12:29
Speaker 2: it shows just how good of a team that the
12:31
Speaker 2: Las Vegas Raiders can be. And so it's not somebody
12:33
Speaker 2: that you can look past at. Somebody you got to
12:35
Speaker 2: look at and take on directly. And so we have
12:38
Speaker 2: our work cutout for us. I know, coaching staff, players,
12:42
Speaker 2: they've been doing their preparations over the last couple of
12:44
Speaker 2: weeks and look forward to this opportunity.
12:48
Speaker 3: Pete Carroll still at it, Yeah, seventy four.
12:52
Speaker 6: I got a ton of respect for Pete Carroll because
12:54
Speaker 6: we did that at my school at USC. Sure, he's
12:58
Speaker 6: a heck of a coach, successful at every level. He'll
13:03
Speaker 6: he'll have that team ready to go, especially coming out
13:05
Speaker 6: of a buy. You talked about brock Bauers getting back.
13:08
Speaker 6: They got Genti, the rookie who's really maybe a little
13:11
Speaker 6: slow start to his rookie campaign, but man, he's a
13:13
Speaker 6: good running back, physical, I can get after it. Gino
13:17
Speaker 6: Smith's proven he knows how to win football games.
13:19
Speaker 2: Uh.
13:20
Speaker 6: And so they get Jacoby Myers back at the receiver healthy.
13:23
Speaker 6: So on offense, they're gonna be a good player. And
13:25
Speaker 6: then on defense they might have one of the best
13:27
Speaker 6: players in all football and in Max Crosby rushing the passer.
13:30
Speaker 6: So there's challenges across the board. And they're at home,
13:34
Speaker 6: they're hungry for a win, and you know, they had
13:37
Speaker 6: a tough start to their season, but you know, they
13:40
Speaker 6: got good coaches, they're good players.
13:42
Speaker 5: They're gonna be prepared.
13:42
Speaker 6: So it's gonna take a great effort from our group.
13:46
Speaker 6: Great challenges across the board, but also great opportunities. You
13:49
Speaker 6: look at a guy like Anton Harris, Uh, he has
13:53
Speaker 6: a chance to go match up against one of the
13:55
Speaker 6: great in the league.
13:56
Speaker 5: This is how you put in we. I know, I
13:58
Speaker 5: believe in him.
13:59
Speaker 6: He confidence himself that he's truly one of the uh
14:03
Speaker 6: better right tackles in football and uh and so this
14:08
Speaker 6: is the chance for like an Anton Harrison to come
14:11
Speaker 6: prove it. And I you know, and there's you can
14:13
Speaker 6: go across the board where we have young players who
14:15
Speaker 6: are going to have opportunities to go out there, uh
14:18
Speaker 6: to make plays and and uh, I know I'm looking
14:21
Speaker 6: forward to see him go do it.
14:23
Speaker 3: Max Crosby, fourth round pick in twenty nineteen.
14:26
Speaker 7: Man, what a pick?
14:28
Speaker 3: Right about a pick?
14:30
Speaker 5: Why did you guys pass.
14:31
Speaker 7: On a Pi.
14:35
Speaker 5: Faradass?
14:35
Speaker 2: I don't know if we had any remember for fourth round.
14:41
Speaker 5: Gone?
14:42
Speaker 3: You remember him coming out though? Like was he on
14:44
Speaker 3: the radar? Yes?
14:45
Speaker 7: He was, he was.
14:47
Speaker 2: He was somebody that I will say, the way that
14:50
Speaker 2: we operate, we get well ahead into our let's call
14:54
Speaker 2: it group review in comparison to the majority of the league.
15:00
Speaker 2: He was someone that got folded into that review a
15:02
Speaker 2: little later in the process. What you would deem like
15:05
Speaker 2: an add on player coming from a smaller school, not
15:08
Speaker 2: as big of a stage. That's not atypical, but his
15:12
Speaker 2: body type was a little underdeveloped in comparison to what
15:16
Speaker 2: we see out of him now. And you could see
15:19
Speaker 2: that we're all potential and there was one scout at
15:21
Speaker 2: the time that flagged him as Hey, guys, I know
15:23
Speaker 2: we watched him a little bit later in the process,
15:26
Speaker 2: but I really think that there's something to this guy.
15:29
Speaker 2: And you know, when it's a single evaluator, sometimes it
15:31
Speaker 2: can be.
15:31
Speaker 7: Hard to get that flagged a wave and fly real high.
15:35
Speaker 2: But gosh, he's really overcome the odds, so to speak,
15:39
Speaker 2: and leveled up to a standing in the NFL that
15:42
Speaker 2: most fourth rounders don't.
15:44
Speaker 6: Its funny, I mean what I appreach about Max Crosby.
15:48
Speaker 6: He plays every snap in a league where, yes, most
15:52
Speaker 6: guys at the defensive line position or rotational players at
15:56
Speaker 6: some level, you know you're great ones played more, you know,
15:58
Speaker 6: call it seventy seventy five snaps. This is a guy
16:02
Speaker 6: that a lot of games will play one hundred percent
16:04
Speaker 6: of the defensive snaps. And and when you watch him
16:07
Speaker 6: on tape, there's no slowdown. It's not like he's taking
16:10
Speaker 6: plays off. Chris Jones, I'm not going to say anything
16:13
Speaker 6: I did said. I'm not saying names, but he's not
16:15
Speaker 6: taking plays off. He's it's full tilt, full speed.
16:19
Speaker 2: Oh and he has the luxury of shooting gaps and
16:22
Speaker 2: getting out of gaps to make plays. And you know
16:25
Speaker 2: that the defense understands that, hey, it might be out
16:27
Speaker 2: of structure, but there's a chance for a TfL a sack,
16:31
Speaker 2: a bat pass, an interception. I mean the way in
16:34
Speaker 2: which he impacts things. It's not specific to pass rushing, right.
16:39
Speaker 2: He creates a lot of chaos and it includes forcing
16:42
Speaker 2: turnovers that you know he's taking the ball away or
16:44
Speaker 2: he's getting other people at the ops to do so.
16:46
Speaker 2: So he is a special player and has certainly come
16:49
Speaker 2: from uh the ashes, so to speak, or from from
16:53
Speaker 2: the background into the spotlight.
16:56
Speaker 4: Five battered passes I think from him this year. So yeah,
16:59
Speaker 4: it impacts it in a lot of ways, even if
17:00
Speaker 4: he can't get home. James Gladstone, Tony Boselli with us
17:04
Speaker 4: a couple of the offensive players here. Ashton genty of course,
17:07
Speaker 4: second in Heisman voting last year to Travis Hunter and
17:10
Speaker 4: the second closest vote in Heisman history coming out of Boise.
17:14
Speaker 4: What stands out so far and thinking back to the
17:17
Speaker 4: evaluation of him in the draft process, what do you
17:20
Speaker 4: see on tape?
17:20
Speaker 7: He looks a lot like you did at Boise.
17:23
Speaker 2: You know he's he's dealing with, you know, some some
17:26
Speaker 2: crowded backfields at times and still finding a way to
17:29
Speaker 2: force miss tackles. And I think you see the moments
17:33
Speaker 2: in which you know, like in Kansas City when the
17:36
Speaker 2: offense felt like it was stagnant and it wasn't operating
17:40
Speaker 2: in both the run and the pass efficiently, that their
17:43
Speaker 2: run game sputtered a little bit. And there are other
17:46
Speaker 2: instances where they were able to activate him and both
17:48
Speaker 2: of the phases and it looked really impactful, really effective.
17:53
Speaker 2: So he is a dangerous human being and both running
17:56
Speaker 2: pass and you know, it's pretty cool to see that
17:59
Speaker 2: somebody is a to translate a skill like his, which
18:03
Speaker 2: is being able to be some version of a bowling
18:05
Speaker 2: ball with the ball in hand so quickly, and especially when,
18:09
Speaker 2: like Max Right, he wasn't coming from one of the
18:11
Speaker 2: big name conferences, schools, et cetera, and that could have
18:15
Speaker 2: been something that people would have questioned.
18:17
Speaker 7: So that's good on him.
18:18
Speaker 2: Good for the Raiders to continue to find ways to
18:20
Speaker 2: work him into the fray and continue to up his workload.
18:23
Speaker 2: It certainly seems to be paying dividends in a lot
18:26
Speaker 2: of ways.
18:27
Speaker 3: What's a good comparison for his style?
18:29
Speaker 2: You know what, I do not enjoy trying to Oh
18:33
Speaker 2: you don't like that, to tie people to people, but
18:35
Speaker 2: I get it.
18:36
Speaker 7: It does.
18:37
Speaker 2: It paints pictures and things like that. I know that
18:41
Speaker 2: it's probably easy to point back to clear evaluation.
18:44
Speaker 3: We always forget that.
18:45
Speaker 2: Yes, I do think that it's easy to maybe point
18:47
Speaker 2: at somebody who's been here right in the past because
18:51
Speaker 2: obviously a little smaller and two, yeah, a little more
18:55
Speaker 2: densely in running style for challenged. So I think it's
19:00
Speaker 2: fair to put those two in a similar category.
19:04
Speaker 7: For sure.
19:05
Speaker 4: Brock Bowers is coming back off k the injury two
19:08
Speaker 4: years ago, one of the top tight ends coming out
19:11
Speaker 4: in that draft, certainly at Georgia, and they utilized them
19:14
Speaker 4: all kind of ways and athletes they would hand in
19:16
Speaker 4: the football some and then of course he was a
19:18
Speaker 4: problem in the secondary. How different are they looking when
19:23
Speaker 4: he's out there and as opposed to not on.
19:25
Speaker 7: The field, he changes the math.
19:27
Speaker 2: You know, I think there's not much quite like a
19:33
Speaker 2: tight end who can both run, block and pass catch.
19:37
Speaker 2: And then there's really not much quite like a tight
19:40
Speaker 2: end who can break tackles and create explosives along with
19:45
Speaker 2: the run blocking and pass catching. And that's what he does.
19:48
Speaker 2: It's it allows a quarterback to feel secure, it allows
19:51
Speaker 2: an offense to have options at multiple levels, right, And
19:57
Speaker 2: so I think somebody like him fits the bill or
20:00
Speaker 2: math changing impact, and I think we've seen that when
20:04
Speaker 2: he's out of the lineup, it certainly is a challenge
20:09
Speaker 2: to overcome. When he's in it, you feel like they
20:11
Speaker 2: have a very clear rhythm to their offensive flow.
20:15
Speaker 6: Yeah, and he's a guy that effective and running pass
20:19
Speaker 6: but will line up at a bunch of different positions,
20:24
Speaker 6: so he can be an in line tight end traditional
20:26
Speaker 6: he can be in that called that wing position move
20:28
Speaker 6: tight end, but he also can flects out as a
20:31
Speaker 6: slot receiver, and he can be effective in all three positions.
20:35
Speaker 6: So which adds just stress to you as a defense
20:38
Speaker 6: of identifying him how you you know as far as coverages,
20:43
Speaker 6: you know how you're going to match him, because it's
20:45
Speaker 6: not like he's just going to line up in one spot.
20:47
Speaker 6: It's like, okay, he's an in line tight end, Okay,
20:49
Speaker 6: we know where he is, maybe we can be he's
20:51
Speaker 6: going to move. They move him all over the place
20:53
Speaker 6: and he's effective at all positions based on the alignment
20:57
Speaker 6: and can you know, and then he's dangerous, as James said,
21:00
Speaker 6: after he gets the wrong hand.
21:02
Speaker 3: Let's come back in a moment.
21:03
Speaker 4: Some final thoughts, Final thoughts, Final final thoughts.
21:07
Speaker 5: Well not yours because you'll be here.
21:08
Speaker 3: I have another half hour of this coming up.
21:11
Speaker 5: A lot of final thoughts, plenty of those ahead.
21:14
Speaker 4: This is jags HQ on Jaguars Radio.
21:23
Speaker 1: Welcome back jaggs HHQ, presented by Fresh from Florida continues
21:27
Speaker 1: right now.
21:28
Speaker 3: It is jags HQ, it is the Jaguars Radio Network.
21:31
Speaker 4: JP Shadwick, Jeff Loghman is out tonight, Tony Wasselli James
21:35
Speaker 4: Gladstone for a final few minutes here ahead of the
21:37
Speaker 4: Jaguars Raiders matchup Week nine, the Jags at four and
21:40
Speaker 4: three right there in the mix. The Raiders two and
21:43
Speaker 4: five start, both teams coming off of bye week for
21:46
Speaker 4: the next five games away from here. However, the next
21:50
Speaker 4: game is the most important game in Jaguars history. That's right,
21:54
Speaker 4: the Las Vegas one game at a time, and this
21:57
Speaker 4: is this is going to be.
21:59
Speaker 3: An interesting match.
21:59
Speaker 4: Let's see how Liam Cohen, the staff, the players come
22:02
Speaker 4: off the bye week. It's the first time doing that
22:04
Speaker 4: after the couple losses before. And I'm sure you liked
22:08
Speaker 4: what you've seen in the building going into the buy
22:10
Speaker 4: and then coming out on the practice field, at least
22:12
Speaker 4: in the meeting rooms.
22:13
Speaker 5: This week.
22:13
Speaker 2: Oh, there's going to be some fresh approaches across all
22:16
Speaker 2: three phases. So that'll be exciting to see the effectiveness.
22:21
Speaker 2: I know, certainly as you evolve over the course of
22:24
Speaker 2: a season, it brings life with it, right, You get
22:27
Speaker 2: a little bit more intricate and a little bit more nuanced,
22:32
Speaker 2: able to build off some of the foundational elements that
22:35
Speaker 2: you feel like you were able to get some success with,
22:38
Speaker 2: and then also have some branches to some of the
22:42
Speaker 2: approaches that you may not have considered earlier in the
22:45
Speaker 2: down and So I think it'll be exciting for those
22:48
Speaker 2: who follow us to see that evolution unfold here in
22:52
Speaker 2: the upcoming weekend and those that lie beyond, but also
22:55
Speaker 2: looking forward to the way in which our coaches are
22:58
Speaker 2: able to deploy those at specific moments in our players
23:02
Speaker 2: able to execute him. I know that there's some some
23:04
Speaker 2: fun stuff here on the horizon and look forward to
23:06
Speaker 2: seeing that.
23:07
Speaker 7: You know, it takes shape.
23:08
Speaker 4: It felt like a good time for the buye, but
23:09
Speaker 4: now it's about the stretch run here Ton, Yeah, I.
23:13
Speaker 5: Think it was a good time for the buye.
23:15
Speaker 6: I mean, it's gonna come when it comes. I guess
23:21
Speaker 6: it wouldn't help us if I said it was a
23:22
Speaker 6: bad time for buy because no, but I think what's
23:27
Speaker 6: ahead of us is most important. And the guys came
23:31
Speaker 6: back great this week. I thought the energy on the
23:34
Speaker 6: practice field, the excitement, and then guys were juiced to
23:36
Speaker 6: get going. And uh, you know the way I always
23:40
Speaker 6: look out of it. If if James and I and
23:42
Speaker 6: others don't like sitting with the loss for that long,
23:46
Speaker 6: I remember what it felt like as a player sitting
23:48
Speaker 6: with a loss, especially if you didn't have a good performance,
23:51
Speaker 6: because you sit with that and there's nothing better than
23:54
Speaker 6: getting back out on the field and going to some
23:58
Speaker 6: sort of redemption.
23:59
Speaker 9: You know.
24:00
Speaker 6: I'm like, hey, let's go back and show people who
24:02
Speaker 6: we are. And I think we have a confident group
24:04
Speaker 6: and I think these guys are ready to go play now.
24:07
Speaker 6: I'm sure the Raiders are saying the same thing because
24:09
Speaker 6: they got confidence as well. So that's the fun thing.
24:13
Speaker 6: I think typically what happens in these scenarios, the team
24:16
Speaker 6: who plays the best during those that three hour window
24:18
Speaker 6: will win the football game. You know, talk about being
24:20
Speaker 6: on the road four of the five next week, that's
24:24
Speaker 6: you may that's as much as.
24:26
Speaker 5: You want to make of it. You can make that
24:27
Speaker 5: a big deal, or you can just go play football.
24:29
Speaker 6: And I think this week especially, I think our guys
24:32
Speaker 6: are ready to go go out there and put a
24:34
Speaker 6: good performance on and play tough and play our brand
24:37
Speaker 6: in football and see what happens.
24:39
Speaker 4: Gentlemen, Thanks for the time as always, enjoy the trip
24:41
Speaker 4: to Vegas. Bring back at w will you.
24:43
Speaker 5: That's the plan, game on.
24:45
Speaker 3: Fit it in the luggage on the way home. That'd
24:46
Speaker 3: be great.
24:47
Speaker 4: Tony Wasselli, James Gladstone with us. Plenty more ahead coming
24:51
Speaker 4: up in about ten minutes. Chris Meyers, a Fox Sports
24:54
Speaker 4: joins us. This is JAG's HQ on the Jaguars Radio Network.
25:04
Speaker 1: Welcome Back Jaggs HQ, presented by Fresh from Florida continues
25:09
Speaker 1: right now.
25:10
Speaker 4: And we are on the Jaguars Radio Network, presented by
25:12
Speaker 4: the University of Florida, number one university and the US
25:15
Speaker 4: News and World Reports number.
25:17
Speaker 3: One state for education.
25:18
Speaker 9: J P.
25:19
Speaker 4: Shadrick with you, Jeff Logoman out our thanks to Tony Biselli,
25:23
Speaker 4: EVP and James Gladstone and General Manager. Joinning us in
25:26
Speaker 4: studio each and every Thursday afternoon, and occasionally the head coach,
25:32
Speaker 4: Liam Colin will roll through here every few weeks or so,
25:34
Speaker 4: but coming off the bye week now the Jaguars at
25:37
Speaker 4: four and three.
25:38
Speaker 3: They're headed out.
25:38
Speaker 4: To Las Vegas this week to face the two and
25:41
Speaker 4: five Raiders, both teams coming off their respective bye week.
25:44
Speaker 4: The Raiders were shut out thirty one nothing before the
25:47
Speaker 4: bye and had only thirty plays in the game offensively
25:51
Speaker 4: and really struggled under hundred yards in the game. The
25:53
Speaker 4: Jaguars now coming off back to back losses, tough loss,
25:56
Speaker 4: close loss to Seattle, really good team here and then
25:59
Speaker 4: then and of course the Rams another really good team,
26:03
Speaker 4: had to get away from the Jaguars in that one
26:05
Speaker 4: at Wembley. But now some time to reflect and regroup
26:08
Speaker 4: and work on some few items there we heard James
26:11
Speaker 4: Gladstone talking about all three phases. Might see some different
26:14
Speaker 4: things coming out of the bye. They've done a lot
26:16
Speaker 4: of work going into the bye week and in terms
26:18
Speaker 4: of the coaching staff self scouting, and we'll see what
26:21
Speaker 4: they come up with. This could be a little bit
26:23
Speaker 4: different looking in some areas for the Jags, certainly on
26:26
Speaker 4: the offensive side, wanted to get back to that run game.
26:29
Speaker 4: They were running the ball effectively early in the season.
26:33
Speaker 4: Passing games still just quite hasn't found that groove, yet
26:36
Speaker 4: even early in the year there was some issues. There
26:39
Speaker 4: have been issues throughout the season. The Jaguars lead the
26:42
Speaker 4: league and drop passes. They're near the top of the
26:44
Speaker 4: league in penalties now, so all that needs to get
26:48
Speaker 4: cleaned up. Move it ahead on defensive side a little more.
26:51
Speaker 4: They've been really good against the run last two weeks.
26:53
Speaker 4: They've been really good on third down, and just got
26:56
Speaker 4: to kind of get home to that quarterback a little
26:58
Speaker 4: bit more. They haven't been able to do that. They
27:00
Speaker 4: were affecting the quarterback early in the season, causing some
27:03
Speaker 4: of those downfield errant throws and interceptions that came off
27:07
Speaker 4: of those, but it's been a little bit those have
27:10
Speaker 4: dried up. The Jaguars have trailed early in games, they
27:12
Speaker 4: haven't been able to get back on top of it.
27:15
Speaker 4: And when you lead, of course, then the defense can
27:18
Speaker 4: go do their work later in the games, especially, So
27:22
Speaker 4: we'll see what they have in store this week, going
27:24
Speaker 4: to to Vegas to face a Raiders team that beat
27:26
Speaker 4: them last year. Though there were some good performances certainly
27:29
Speaker 4: on both sides for some young players in that game
27:34
Speaker 4: a season ago, the Raiders got the better end of
27:36
Speaker 4: it and this time. Now, the Jaguars trying to get
27:40
Speaker 4: back on track after this buy with four of the
27:42
Speaker 4: next five on the road doesn't get easier. I mean
27:45
Speaker 4: the four road teams, though the Jags will play, all
27:48
Speaker 4: have losing records at the moment. That's not the way
27:52
Speaker 4: they're looking at this building though, one at a time.
27:55
Speaker 4: The Raiders are next, and it's a four or five
27:58
Speaker 4: kickoff time in Las Vegas Sunday.
28:01
Speaker 3: We'll return in a moment with the man. We'll have
28:03
Speaker 3: the call of the game.
28:03
Speaker 4: On Fox Sports Chris Myers. We'll break down those Las
28:08
Speaker 4: Vegas Raiders a little bit deeper when we come back.
28:11
Speaker 4: It's Jags HQ on Jaguars Radio.
28:20
Speaker 1: Welcome Back. Jaggs HQ, presented by Fresh from Florida continues
28:25
Speaker 1: right now.
28:26
Speaker 3: Welcome back. We're on the Jaguars Radio Network.
28:28
Speaker 4: JP Shadick with you with Jaggs HQ, no Jeff Logoman
28:32
Speaker 4: tonight ore thanks to Tony Biselli and James Gladstone joining
28:35
Speaker 4: us most every week here on the program. Jaguars coming
28:38
Speaker 4: off the bye week, headed to Las Vegas to face
28:40
Speaker 4: the Raiders, and Chris Myers has the call of the
28:43
Speaker 4: game Sunday on Fox Sports. It's his third Jags game
28:46
Speaker 4: of the season. It's his third Raiders game of the
28:49
Speaker 4: season as well. Longtime sportscaster, of course with ESPN from
28:53
Speaker 4: the late eighties to the late nineties and then has
28:55
Speaker 4: been with Fox Sports from nineteen ninety eight to the
28:58
Speaker 4: current times bring multiple sports for the network, including the
29:03
Speaker 4: Jags and the Raiders in the National Football League Week
29:05
Speaker 4: nine this Sunday, and we dig deeper into the Raiders
29:10
Speaker 4: and especially how to slow down tight end Brock Bowers.
29:13
Speaker 10: I don't think you let them get deep and you
29:15
Speaker 10: have to tackle them right away when he catches the football.
29:18
Speaker 9: And also Michael Mayer is back.
29:19
Speaker 10: They really are a two tight end team because their
29:22
Speaker 10: receivers don't wow you. And they've drafted some that haven't
29:26
Speaker 10: quite developed yet in Dante Thornton, who is a speedy
29:30
Speaker 10: guy from Tennessee who just you know, hasn't gotten all
29:33
Speaker 10: the mechanics. Now, Jack Besh a second rounder, kind of
29:36
Speaker 10: a sure hand. Again, those guys haven't haven't figured. Jakobe
29:39
Speaker 10: Myers has been hurt. But I bring them up because
29:41
Speaker 10: I think that's why they've struggled. And Gino Smith thought
29:44
Speaker 10: he would have brock Bowers and you take him away
29:46
Speaker 10: in and Mayor went out with a concussion.
29:48
Speaker 9: I think they're both going to be back.
29:50
Speaker 10: Yes, Browers is going to get his catches, just don't
29:52
Speaker 10: let him destroy you once he does. I'm a believer
29:54
Speaker 10: in genty. I know they're going through a lot on
29:56
Speaker 10: their offensive line. Colton Miller, their best aligneman, left tackle
29:59
Speaker 10: guys heart out for the year. That certainly affected things overall.
30:03
Speaker 10: They did add Tyler Lockett this week, former Seahawk with
30:07
Speaker 10: you know Pete Carroll and and Gino Smith kind of
30:09
Speaker 10: a comfort level that could do a lot, not just
30:11
Speaker 10: in the game, but maybe for the receiver room. I
30:14
Speaker 10: think that that's what they're hoping for anyway, how much
30:17
Speaker 10: he'll play and fitting into the system. And he came
30:19
Speaker 10: over from Tennessee that brief time where he only had
30:21
Speaker 10: ten catches, so that could be a factor. But yeah,
30:24
Speaker 10: they haven't been explosive offensively, and that's the thing, other
30:29
Speaker 10: than when Genti breaks tackles and shakes loose and that's
30:33
Speaker 10: you know, Pete Carroll wants to get him more and
30:35
Speaker 10: more involved and that's up to Chip Kelly to find
30:37
Speaker 10: out ways to do that. But their big story concerned
30:40
Speaker 10: is Gino Smith, the veteran they brought in to stabilize
30:43
Speaker 10: things at the quarterback position, and he's thrown them. He's
30:46
Speaker 10: tied for the most interceptions in the league with Tongo Iiloa,
30:49
Speaker 10: and he's just got to make better decisions whether people
30:51
Speaker 10: are open or he's under pressure. But I think he
30:54
Speaker 10: will in this game a little bit because of the
30:56
Speaker 10: Bowers being out there present and a little bit healthier
30:58
Speaker 10: since he was bothered by that knee injury.
31:00
Speaker 4: Another thought on the Raiders on defense, Max Crosby is
31:03
Speaker 4: the number one priority. What else do the Raiders pose defensively?
31:07
Speaker 4: What do they put out there?
31:08
Speaker 10: Well, they have guys that and they're they're the chip
31:11
Speaker 10: on the shoulder guys that Pete Carroll has gathered like
31:13
Speaker 10: a Devin White, you know, as a former buccaneer and
31:16
Speaker 10: then he was in Houston briefly and he's having a
31:18
Speaker 10: good year for them at the linebacker spot.
31:20
Speaker 9: I'm all Adams, Jeremy.
31:22
Speaker 10: Chin, So it's kind of it's kind of a ragtag
31:25
Speaker 10: group by the Eric Stokes is probably their best cover guy.
31:28
Speaker 10: I think they can I think they can be had
31:30
Speaker 10: in the secondary if if they you know, if Trevor
31:33
Speaker 10: Arts has time and delivers the ball and the Jag
31:35
Speaker 10: receivers hang on to the hang on to the football.
31:38
Speaker 10: But yes, Adam Butler will be coming back up front.
31:41
Speaker 10: That will really help Crosby who's been double teamed a lot.
31:44
Speaker 10: Butler hurt his back and he's on that inside tackle
31:46
Speaker 10: spot usually near Crosby, although they move Crosby around and
31:49
Speaker 10: he's a fascinating player to watch in that Miles Garrett
31:53
Speaker 10: kind of kind of mold. So yes, you got to
31:55
Speaker 10: be aware of where he is uh and and then
31:57
Speaker 10: I think you can attack in a lot of different
32:00
Speaker 10: areas of that defense. They are transitioning from a Pete Carroll.
32:05
Speaker 10: Patrick Graham was the decordinator before he was there with
32:08
Speaker 10: the Raiders, and Pete's kind of taking a little bit
32:10
Speaker 10: of his and trying to bring his But I don't
32:12
Speaker 10: know if he has all the players. They are getting
32:14
Speaker 10: Lonnie Johnson back. They say this strong safety had a
32:16
Speaker 10: great training camp, got hurt, had a leg injury. That
32:20
Speaker 10: can help a little bit in the secondary. But yes, Crosby,
32:24
Speaker 10: you start and you finish with him. I think on
32:26
Speaker 10: that Raider defense.
32:27
Speaker 4: It's Chris Myers NFL on Fox, longtime sportscast of course,
32:32
Speaker 4: and the full conversation coming this weekend on the Jaguars
32:35
Speaker 4: Podcast Network and you'll hear it on Countdown to kickoff
32:38
Speaker 4: this Sunday ahead of the Jaguars Raiders matchup when we
32:42
Speaker 4: return plenty more and if the injury report comes down,
32:46
Speaker 4: we'll get that to you. It's a West Coast game
32:48
Speaker 4: this week, so a little later, we'll try to pass
32:50
Speaker 4: that along if it comes down soon.
32:52
Speaker 3: That's Jaggs HQ on the Jaguars Radio Network.
33:00
Speaker 1: Welcome back, Jaggs HQ, presented by Fresh from Florida continues
33:05
Speaker 1: right now.
33:07
Speaker 9: Really good player, very good.
33:10
Speaker 11: He's just he's one of those guys you know, there's
33:12
Speaker 11: a there's a handful of them in this I mean
33:14
Speaker 11: a lot of great players in this league. But as
33:16
Speaker 11: far as just those defensive edge, you know, defensive end,
33:19
Speaker 11: pass rusher guys that are he's just constant, NonStop.
33:23
Speaker 9: I think that's what.
33:25
Speaker 11: You know is admirable about his play is that it
33:27
Speaker 11: is just such a high motor.
33:28
Speaker 9: Obviously, he's athletic.
33:30
Speaker 11: And he's skilled and strong and good instincts, but he
33:32
Speaker 11: plays really hard. So and that's something where he makes
33:35
Speaker 11: a lot of plays because of that.
33:38
Speaker 4: That is the quarterback Trevor Lawrence of the Jacksonville Jaguars
33:42
Speaker 4: discussing Max Crosby defensive end for the Las Vegas Raiders.
33:46
Speaker 3: Welcome back.
33:46
Speaker 4: It is Jags HQ, presented by Fresh from Florida and
33:50
Speaker 4: you can cheer on the Jags as they travel to
33:52
Speaker 4: Vegas to take on the Raiders this Sunday. The official
33:54
Speaker 4: away game watch party is at mister Chubby's West Side.
33:58
Speaker 3: Location in Jacksonville. Hope you can join them.
34:02
Speaker 4: There should be a fantastic match up the Jaguars and
34:06
Speaker 4: the Raiders coming up this Sunday, a four h five
34:08
Speaker 4: kickoff time, and the Jags trying to get back on
34:11
Speaker 4: track after two straight losses. They started the season, of
34:15
Speaker 4: course four and one, but they've been outscored fifty five
34:18
Speaker 4: to nineteen over the last two games. Got a season
34:22
Speaker 4: low seven points last two weeks ago. Now in London
34:25
Speaker 4: in Week seven, bunch of penalties of course, twenty three
34:29
Speaker 4: penalties in that stretch for one hundred ninety five yards.
34:32
Speaker 4: They had eighteen flags against them in the game in London,
34:35
Speaker 4: with only thirteen of those accepted, but some miskicks in
34:39
Speaker 4: the kicking game as well. The defense giving up big plays.
34:42
Speaker 4: But on the other side of things, they are four
34:45
Speaker 4: and three and they're just one spot out of the
34:47
Speaker 4: playoff spot right now, and they would be eighth in
34:49
Speaker 4: the AFC currently, a lot of football left to go,
34:52
Speaker 4: ten games to go, and we'll see what Liam Cohen
34:55
Speaker 4: staff have in mind coming out of this bye week
34:58
Speaker 4: and if they've what they've adjusted on all sides of
35:02
Speaker 4: the football. We heard James Gladstone earlier on this program say, hey,
35:05
Speaker 4: there might be some different things you'll see if you
35:08
Speaker 4: follow this team week to week on all three sides offense, defense,
35:12
Speaker 4: and special teams, and look forward to seeing what that
35:15
Speaker 4: is moving ahead and see if it can provide some
35:18
Speaker 4: winning results. We heard from the quarterback there, of course.
35:21
Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence is the guest tonight on Jaguars All Access
35:24
Speaker 4: Television at Strings Sports Brewery in Springfield. That's the seven
35:28
Speaker 4: o'clock almost said kickoff time at a seven o'clock start
35:32
Speaker 4: for the program tonight should be a packed house in Springfield.
35:35
Speaker 3: Get there early.
35:36
Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence apparently will sign for kids only tonight, but
35:40
Speaker 4: get there, check it out, meet the quarterback and see
35:43
Speaker 4: what he has to say coming out of the bye week,
35:45
Speaker 4: with the ten games to go in the irregular season,
35:48
Speaker 4: and I got to get some better consistency, certainly in
35:51
Speaker 4: the passing game. He's been sacked a bunch lately, fourteen
35:55
Speaker 4: sacks over the last two games of Lawrence. The run
35:58
Speaker 4: game has kind of gotten away a little bit. Etn
36:02
Speaker 4: still leads, of course the team with just over five
36:04
Speaker 4: hundred rushing yards, but has three straight games now with
36:08
Speaker 4: less than fifty rushing yards and no touchdowns on the
36:10
Speaker 4: ground in that time. The run game helps everything get
36:13
Speaker 4: back on track. So offensively, that's certainly got to be
36:17
Speaker 4: a key this week against this Raiders front. Run the football,
36:20
Speaker 4: balance it out, win it's thrown, catch the football, and
36:24
Speaker 4: that's been another issue as well. But Trevor Lawrence just
36:28
Speaker 4: overall in this offense, trying to find some more consistency,
36:31
Speaker 4: some more positivity overall. And to me and to a
36:36
Speaker 4: lot of folks, it kind of starts in that running
36:38
Speaker 4: game and that offensive line, and they know it. I
36:40
Speaker 4: just talking to some guys in the locker room this week,
36:42
Speaker 4: Hainsey and Anton Harris, and yeah, they have their hands
36:45
Speaker 4: full of Max Crosby is out there at full go.
36:48
Speaker 4: But you know, They've got to continue to get back
36:52
Speaker 4: to what they the blueprint of this team was early
36:55
Speaker 4: in the season, and that's to run the ball and
36:57
Speaker 4: be physical upfront on both lines of scrimmage, especially on
37:00
Speaker 4: defense as well, and on that side.
37:02
Speaker 3: Of the football is trying to get home a little
37:04
Speaker 3: bit more.
37:04
Speaker 4: Only eight sacks this year, it's the lowest in the
37:08
Speaker 4: National Football League, and Eric Armstead leads away with three
37:11
Speaker 4: and a half. Josh heines Allen with only a half
37:14
Speaker 4: sack so far, but he's been able to hit the
37:16
Speaker 4: quarterback eleven times. Early in the season, they were affecting
37:20
Speaker 4: the quarterback enough to make plays. He had that tip
37:23
Speaker 4: ball heinz Allen did against the Houston Texans that caused
37:26
Speaker 4: the interception at the end of the game, but not
37:29
Speaker 4: quite able to get over the top.
37:30
Speaker 3: He's still two sacks away from the.
37:32
Speaker 4: Franchise career record in sacks and still trying to get
37:36
Speaker 4: things going down the stretch here and then the back end.
37:39
Speaker 4: We'll see what kind of changes the Jaguars have in
37:42
Speaker 4: the secondary, if there are any. We'll see what happens
37:45
Speaker 4: on the injury report when it comes out. Not out
37:47
Speaker 4: yet because of the game on the West Coast, But
37:50
Speaker 4: as of yesterday, at least Eric Murray, the safety, did
37:53
Speaker 4: not practice with the next issue. If he does not
37:56
Speaker 4: trend the right way, what happens there? Maybe Antonio Johnson
37:59
Speaker 4: get some play at safety. Do they make some changes
38:02
Speaker 4: to what they're doing in the cornerback spots. It's all
38:05
Speaker 4: something under the radar, under the microscope this week. And
38:09
Speaker 4: also Devin Lloyd, keep an eye on him. He was
38:10
Speaker 4: limited on Wednesday's practice again, no report yet today. You'd
38:15
Speaker 4: love to see him trend the right way and try
38:16
Speaker 4: to get back on the field. Obviously, the way he
38:19
Speaker 4: was playing early in the season that has been missed
38:22
Speaker 4: for this Jaguars defense over the last couple of weeks.
38:24
Speaker 4: From the Jaguars linebacker. The injury report just literally just
38:30
Speaker 4: came down and here it is for the Jacksonville Jaguars
38:33
Speaker 4: today on Thursday. Diammy Brown wide receiver, full participation with
38:37
Speaker 4: a shoulder issue. Dennis Gardak limited again with a chest issue,
38:41
Speaker 4: Jordan Lewis limited cornerback with a neck issue, Devin Lloyd
38:45
Speaker 4: calf in's injury limited, Quinton Morris tight end limited. Eric
38:50
Speaker 4: Murray did not practice again the safety, So that's not
38:53
Speaker 4: trending the right way. Tim Patrick with a growing injury limited,
38:56
Speaker 4: Brian Thomas Junior limited again today, and then in addition
38:59
Speaker 4: to the or the injury report today, Travis Hunter with
39:03
Speaker 4: a knee issue limited in practice on Thursday, was not
39:07
Speaker 4: listed at all on Wednesday. He went full on Wednesday,
39:11
Speaker 4: limited today, so in that media window he was out
39:16
Speaker 4: there going around. We'll see what happens moving ahead with that.
39:20
Speaker 4: Something to watch with Travis Hunter all of a sudden
39:22
Speaker 4: popping up on the injury report today for the Jacksonville
39:24
Speaker 4: Jaguars wide receiver and cornerback with a knee injury, the
39:29
Speaker 4: rookie out of Colorado. That's the latest on the Jaguars side.
39:34
Speaker 4: On the Raiders side, Brock Bauers full both days, should
39:37
Speaker 4: be going this week. The defensive tackle Adam Butler limited today.
39:41
Speaker 4: That's an upgrade from yesterday. Max Crosby limited today with
39:44
Speaker 4: a back issue. That's an upgrade from not practicing Wednesday.
39:47
Speaker 4: We'll see how that trends is the week goes along
39:49
Speaker 4: as well. Jacoby Myers full, Aidan O'Connell the backup quarterbacks
39:53
Speaker 4: fine and pull Am mout the limited participation today with
39:57
Speaker 4: an ankle and knee issue. The safety he would full
40:00
Speaker 4: on Wednesday, so that's a downgrade today. Of course, the
40:02
Speaker 4: biggest news is Travis Hunter added to the injury report
40:05
Speaker 4: now for the Jacksonville Jaguars after Thursday's practice where he
40:09
Speaker 4: practiced limited with what is reported to be a knee issue.
40:14
Speaker 4: Back in a moment our final thoughts ahead of this
40:16
Speaker 4: Jaguars Raiders matchup in week nine, and this is JAG's
40:20
Speaker 4: HQ on Jaguars Radio.
40:28
Speaker 3: Welcome Back.
40:29
Speaker 1: Jags HQ presented by Fresh from Florida, continues right now.
40:33
Speaker 3: Final moments J P.
40:34
Speaker 4: Shadrick with you know, Jeff Logoman, tonight er thanks to
40:37
Speaker 4: Tony Vasselli, James Gladstone's winning us in the first half
40:40
Speaker 4: hour each and every Thursday. The Jaguars and the Raiders
40:43
Speaker 4: coming up this Sunday. It's a four oh five eastern
40:45
Speaker 4: kickoff time. Allegiance Stadium in Las Vegas is the site.
40:50
Speaker 4: Three o'clock eastern countdown to kickoff here on the Jaguars
40:53
Speaker 4: Radio Network if you've just joined us, The injury report
40:56
Speaker 4: has been released and Travis has shown up on it
41:01
Speaker 4: for the first time today limited today in practice with
41:04
Speaker 4: what is listed is a knee issue certainly something to
41:08
Speaker 4: watch moving forward and going into tomorrow the final day
41:12
Speaker 4: of a true full practice on field work ahead of
41:15
Speaker 4: the Jags Raiders matchup. And yeah, obviously he plays both
41:20
Speaker 4: sides of the football as well, so there's just any
41:22
Speaker 4: issue there, and it just felt like he was trending
41:24
Speaker 4: the right way, certainly on offense with the second half
41:27
Speaker 4: performance in a blowout game in London, but still putting
41:31
Speaker 4: up those numbers and finding the end zone for the
41:34
Speaker 4: first time. Didn't play as much defense last time out
41:37
Speaker 4: in London, but it felt like that might have been
41:40
Speaker 4: trending that way as well, and especially in some key
41:43
Speaker 4: pieces on defense, key moments where they got to get
41:46
Speaker 4: off the field.
41:48
Speaker 3: Hunter. Let's hope this is.
41:50
Speaker 4: Nothing too major, but it's major enough to be on
41:53
Speaker 4: the injury report, So something certainly to watch with the
41:57
Speaker 4: number two overall pick rookie receiver and cornerback today going
42:01
Speaker 4: on that report with a knee issue was not listed
42:04
Speaker 4: at all, was not on the injury report at all.
42:06
Speaker 4: Wednesday is first time going on there today. It just
42:08
Speaker 4: came down about seven minutes ago or so, and we'll
42:13
Speaker 4: see what that has with the Jaguars coming into Friday
42:17
Speaker 4: with Liam Cohen scheduled to meet with the media up
42:19
Speaker 4: in the morning about ten thirty or so. We'll see
42:23
Speaker 4: if he has any updates on that tomorrow, and then
42:26
Speaker 4: of course the locker room will be open after practice
42:28
Speaker 4: tomorrow for media as well, and you'll hear all the latest,
42:32
Speaker 4: i'm sure, on many of these same stations in the
42:35
Speaker 4: coming day or so, leading into a status report at
42:39
Speaker 4: the end of the week. So they've got to get
42:41
Speaker 4: the status report tomorrow afternoon.
42:45
Speaker 3: Of that's whether they're.
42:46
Speaker 4: Playing, doubtful, questionable, all that that ends up on Friday,
42:50
Speaker 4: so we'll have a better idea even if Liam Cohen
42:53
Speaker 4: is doesn't have any update tomorrow morning, we'll get an
42:59
Speaker 4: idea at the end of the day what the status
43:01
Speaker 4: is for the wide receiver and cornerback moving forward. But
43:04
Speaker 4: he is on the injury report today. There are some
43:06
Speaker 4: others on there as well that have changed some designations today.
43:11
Speaker 4: Diammy Brown one of those. So what does this do
43:14
Speaker 4: for the wide receiver room. There's three other receivers already
43:16
Speaker 4: on the injury report Doammy Brown, Tim Patrick, Brian Thomas Jr.
43:20
Speaker 4: Thomas and Patrick limited both days already with a groin
43:23
Speaker 4: and shoulder injury, Patrick with a groin injury, Thomas with
43:26
Speaker 4: a shoulder injury, Doamy Brown with a shoulder issue. Upgraded
43:29
Speaker 4: to full today. That's a good sign, but now with
43:32
Speaker 4: Hunter added to it, digging deep all of a sudden
43:35
Speaker 4: in the wide receiver room of guys that are trying
43:38
Speaker 4: to battle through Tim Patrick's been inactive the last game
43:41
Speaker 4: or so, and of course we saw Brian Thomas Jr.
43:44
Speaker 4: Come off the field in London holding that shoulder and
43:47
Speaker 4: just trying to practice through. And hopefully this all improves
43:51
Speaker 4: as the week comes to a conclusion here tomorrow and
43:55
Speaker 4: then Saturday, the early flight out to Vegas, this time
43:58
Speaker 4: for the Jaguars to face the Raiders.
44:00
Speaker 3: And that'll do it for our program tonight.
44:02
Speaker 4: Our thanks to Tony Bascelli and James Gladstone joining us
44:05
Speaker 4: in the first half hour.
44:06
