- 0:27Speaker 2: Come into the Hyundai Studios inside the Miller Electric Center.
- 0:30Speaker 2: Time for the post-game show in the aftermath of the Jaguars.
- 0:33Speaker 2: 34-10 winner over the Cleveland Browns. Give me an adjective, Duff.
- 0:39Speaker 2: Just one word. Touchdown. Win. Fred, describe it.
- 0:44Speaker 3: Slaughterfest. You asked for one word.
- 0:47Speaker 2: Just an adjective. Something you would say. How would you
- 0:50Speaker 2: describe the game to someone who didn't see it?
- 0:53Speaker 3: Domination.
- 0:54Speaker 2: Yeah, dominating. You couldn't come up with anything else.
- 0:57Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I was the only one who had
- 0:58Speaker 4: an adjective on my first try. So I thought that
- 1:01Speaker 4: was pretty good.
- 1:03Speaker 5: To sudden change, I didn't react to it.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Brian Sexton along with Mike Dempsey. Fred Taylor is here.
- 1:08Speaker 2: Mark Duffner is here. A thoroughly convincing win for the
- 1:13Speaker 2: Jaguars today. You would put it right up there with
- 1:15Speaker 2: their win over the.
- 1:18Speaker 2: The 1999 San Francisco 49ers, that was 41-3. The Jaguars
- 1:22Speaker 2: scored two defensive touchdowns in that game. But this was
- 1:25Speaker 2: right on par. I'll say it's the second most dominant
- 1:27Speaker 2: performance on opening day by the Jaguars. I guess you
- 1:30Speaker 2: could argue 2017, 10 sacks in Houston. But this was
- 1:33Speaker 2: a thorough beatdown of the Cleveland Browns, Mike Dempsey.
- 1:36Speaker 4: Yeah, no doubt about it. I mean, we can nitpick
- 1:39Speaker 4: which one was the best. But the Jags came out
- 1:42Speaker 4: and they made a statement that we're not the same
- 1:45Speaker 4: organization anymore, right? Because in this century, it's been the
- 1:49Speaker 4: Jags having a peak year and then falling off the
- 1:51Speaker 4: next year. Well, that's not Liam Cohen's fault. That's not
- 1:54Speaker 4: James Gladstone or Tony Buscelli. This is a new organization,
- 1:57Speaker 4: a new regime. And they backed up what they did
- 2:00Speaker 4: last year. And Trevor Lawrence particularly... picked up where he
- 2:03Speaker 4: left off.
- 2:04Speaker 2: His number is 18 of 23, which is 78% completion,
- 2:08Speaker 2: 244 yards, four touchdowns, and a passer rating Duff 150.6.
- 2:13Speaker 2: He was spectacular.
- 2:15Speaker 7: I mean, great throws, distributed the ball to nine different people,
- 2:19Speaker 7: extended plays, used his legs. I mean, the throw he
- 2:23Speaker 7: made to Cameron in the first quarter, I mean, the
- 2:25Speaker 7: first half was a bullet.
- 2:26Speaker 5: I mean, all day long, tremendous game by Trevor.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Fred, ninth consecutive regular season win. Fifth consecutive at home.
- 2:34Speaker 2: This football team just has something when they get here
- 2:38Speaker 2: in front of this crowd. They take it.
- 2:40Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what?
- 2:41Speaker 8: First, before we go there, Brian, I'm going to say
- 2:43Speaker 8: I think the 49ers game was more impressive.
- 2:46Speaker 3: You forget it was a torrential down.
- 2:48Speaker 2: No, no, I didn't forget that at all. Okay, well,
- 2:49Speaker 2: I said it was the second most. You don't forget anything.
- 2:52Speaker 9: No, I don't.
- 2:53Speaker 3: I know, right? You know what?
- 2:54Speaker 8: But no, I think this team, the entire offseason, the
- 2:57Speaker 8: theme was the expectations. And not only that, for the
- 3:00Speaker 8: head coach, they wanted to prove that last year wasn't
- 3:04Speaker 8: a fluke, and this is one of the ways you
- 3:06Speaker 8: answer those questions by just putting your foot on the
- 3:10Speaker 8: opponent's neck and not letting off. The exception of those
- 3:14Speaker 8: two big plays, the kickoff return and that big play
- 3:17Speaker 8: by Monteric at the very end of the game, you
- 3:19Speaker 8: take those away, and this is total domination, as we
- 3:24Speaker 8: said a moment ago. But kudos to the entire squad, man.
- 3:27Speaker 8: They did exactly... what we thought they should have done today.
- 3:32Speaker 2: It was 31 to nothing before the Browns did anything.
- 3:35Speaker 2: And it was that long 74-yard kickoff return that put
- 3:38Speaker 2: them in a spot where they could get on the board.
- 3:41Speaker 2: The only reason they didn't get a touchdown is because
- 3:42Speaker 2: the defense said no. I mean, they had a couple
- 3:44Speaker 2: of mistakes in there, including a five-yard penalty on fourth
- 3:49Speaker 2: down and two from the three-yard line. But the defense
- 3:51Speaker 2: then came up with a big stop and didn't let
- 3:53Speaker 2: them get it in. 31-point lead. You're like, okay, this team?
- 3:59Speaker 2: is one of the best teams in the AFC. I mean,
- 4:01Speaker 2: we've heard all offseason, Houston and Buffalo who are playing
- 4:04Speaker 2: a barn burner right now. It's 31-30. The Texans leading
- 4:07Speaker 2: the Bills with 3-13 left to play. Denver we'll see
- 4:10Speaker 2: tomorrow night. We saw the Patriots last week in Seattle.
- 4:14Speaker 2: The Chargers will be on here later today against the Cardinals.
- 4:17Speaker 2: When you look at the best teams in the AFC,
- 4:20Speaker 2: they all are going to come out, and the Jaguars
- 4:24Speaker 2: acquitted themselves well.
- 4:25Speaker 10: They did.
- 4:26Speaker 4: Let's keep it in perspective. The Browns are one of
- 4:27Speaker 4: the worst teams in the AFC. They just flat out are.
- 4:31Speaker 2: Particularly.
- 4:32Speaker 4: as long as Deshaun Watson is quarterbacking this team. But
- 4:34Speaker 4: that's what you're supposed to do with a team that
- 4:36Speaker 4: you are significantly better than.
- 4:38Speaker 2: And, I mean, how many times have we said, oh,
- 4:41Speaker 2: you know, it's okay, slow start. They'll get rolling.
- 4:43Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence will throw a touchdown in the middle of
- 4:45Speaker 4: the second quarter. And they came out and they set
- 4:48Speaker 4: the tone, Brian and guys, right from the jump. I
- 4:50Speaker 4: think they wanted to make a statement in this game.
- 4:53Speaker 2: We heard fast start all week, Fred. How about this?
- 4:55Speaker 2: How about Foye-Lewikun? Kills the Browns' momentum, Coach. Kills it
- 5:00Speaker 2: with that interception.
- 5:01Speaker 5: Outstanding. Field position given.
- 5:03Speaker 7: And like Mike just said, the offense answers touchdown, touchdown,
- 5:07Speaker 7: field goal, touchdown.
- 5:08Speaker 5: That's the first half. I mean, they did a heck
- 5:10Speaker 5: of a job.
- 5:10Speaker 2: Jaguars led the NFL last year, Fred, with 110 points
- 5:13Speaker 2: scored off of turnovers. They have 14 after one game.
- 5:18Speaker 2: What's the mindset on the offense after a takeaway like that?
- 5:22Speaker 2: Just go for it?
- 5:23Speaker 8: Yeah, I think, you know, as a good offensive coordinator,
- 5:28Speaker 8: you know, you get the ball a quick sudden change
- 5:30Speaker 8: of pace.
- 5:31Speaker 3: You want to take a shot here and there.
- 5:32Speaker 2: All right. Let's go downstairs. Bucky Brooks has Trayvon Walker.
- 5:37Speaker 2: You see who he pulled it out on, though.
- 5:39Speaker 9: Hey, here we're Trayvon. Trayvon, great effort today being able
- 5:42Speaker 9: to knock out the Cleveland Browns. What made you guys
- 5:44Speaker 9: playing so well?
- 5:45Speaker 10: Oh, man, it was just obviously the first game, you know,
- 5:48Speaker 10: we didn't play our preseason, so it was just something
- 5:50Speaker 10: that we was all ready to get to playing with
- 5:52Speaker 10: each other again, man. I feel like that was really
- 5:55Speaker 10: all it was. We've been working hard throughout the OTAs
- 5:58Speaker 10: and then to camp, and now we're finally in the season,
- 6:00Speaker 10: so we just, everything's starting to come to fruition.
- 6:02Speaker 9: So it's funny because you won a lot of games
- 6:03Speaker 9: in college. Today, being on the sideline, it was like
- 6:06Speaker 9: the expectation was to do what exactly took place. Have
- 6:09Speaker 9: you felt the team kind of transform into a team
- 6:11Speaker 9: that not only believes they can win but expects to win?
- 6:14Speaker 2: Definitely.
- 6:15Speaker 10: Like you said, the key word you just said was expect.
- 6:17Speaker 10: We definitely expect to win every game. That's our main goal.
- 6:20Speaker 10: So that's something we kind of set a high standard
- 6:23Speaker 10: for ourselves, even though everybody else, no matter what the
- 6:25Speaker 10: expectations that everybody else have for us, that's the expectation
- 6:28Speaker 10: that we set for ourselves. Last year, we don't like
- 6:31Speaker 10: to talk about last year a lot, but that was
- 6:32Speaker 10: a building block for us last year. We just want
- 6:34Speaker 10: to continuously grow from last year, obviously this game, and
- 6:37Speaker 10: now we just want to keep going 1% every game,
- 6:39Speaker 10: every week.
- 6:39Speaker 9: Watching the defense from the sideline, the physicality, I could
- 6:42Speaker 9: feel it. You know, and I know Coach Campanelli talks
- 6:45Speaker 9: about the human element to the game and knocking people
- 6:47Speaker 9: out and being violent and those things. Is it contagious
- 6:50Speaker 9: when you can feel the big hits begin to come?
- 6:52Speaker 10: 100%. It brings energy not only to the defense, but
- 6:55Speaker 10: that brings energy to the offensive side of the ball
- 6:57Speaker 10: and that brings energy to the special teams. So, obviously,
- 7:00Speaker 10: you want to get those hats and hands. You hear
- 7:02Speaker 10: little things like that, hats and hands. You want to
- 7:03Speaker 10: celebrate with your teammates. Obviously, that brings everybody else along
- 7:06Speaker 10: with you. You might be the one making the play,
- 7:08Speaker 10: but everybody else is excited for you.
- 7:09Speaker 9: Well, one of the things that has been a theme
- 7:11Speaker 9: recently For the team, it's turning the ball over, being
- 7:14Speaker 9: able to get takeaways. And it's collective effort. It's the
- 7:16Speaker 9: pass rush. It's stopping the run. It's getting plays. Talk
- 7:19Speaker 9: about how you guys have continued to pick up where
- 7:20Speaker 9: you left off last year.
- 7:21Speaker 10: Oh, man, that's just one of those things. We always
- 7:23Speaker 10: talk about takeaways. Everybody just has to do that 1-11.
- 7:26Speaker 10: I feel like if everybody's doing that 1-11, running to
- 7:28Speaker 10: the ball, I always say that if you're running to
- 7:30Speaker 10: the ball, go out and watch the ones that run
- 7:32Speaker 10: to the ball. And it definitely shows up on tape.
- 7:35Speaker 10: And we just got to continuously keep doing that. Everybody
- 7:37Speaker 10: keep doing that 111 thing. We'll keep getting takeaways, and
- 7:40Speaker 10: we'll keep doing what we're.
- 7:40Speaker 3: Supposed to do.
- 7:41Speaker 11: All right, man.
- 7:42Speaker 9: We got a big one next week. A lot of
- 7:43Speaker 9: people want to talk about going to Denver. How do
- 7:45Speaker 9: you guys build off of this to get ready for
- 7:46Speaker 9: a big week, too?
- 7:47Speaker 10: I mean, obviously, we'll go in tomorrow, and we'll go, obviously,
- 7:49Speaker 10: clean up the little small things that we need to
- 7:52Speaker 10: get corrected from this game. And then we just want
- 7:53Speaker 10: to continuously grow on our plan. We're not really, like,
- 7:57Speaker 10: that's the opponent that we're going to play, but we're
- 7:59Speaker 10: more so focused on ourselves, the areas that we can
- 8:01Speaker 10: improve going into this game next week.
- 8:03Speaker 2: Look, man, we're looking forward to it.
- 8:04Speaker 3: Yes, sir. Thank you.
- 8:06Speaker 2: All right, that's Trayvon Walker. Jaguars win 34-10. Five sacks,
- 8:11Speaker 2: two takeaways today. It's 4 o'clock on the East Coast.
- 8:15Speaker 2: Let's pause 10 seconds for station identification. You're listening to
- 8:18Speaker 2: Jaguars Postgame on the Jaguars Radio Network. The Jaguars Radio
- 8:32Speaker 2: Network is presented by UF Health, the official health care
- 8:35Speaker 2: partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Trayvon Walker, Josh Hines-Allen, each
- 8:40Speaker 2: had a sack and a half today. Three of the
- 8:42Speaker 2: team's five. Your thoughts on the overall pressure that they
- 8:45Speaker 2: got getting after the quarterback today?
- 8:47Speaker 8: I mean, you mentioned the four-year Louis interception. They had
- 8:51Speaker 8: pressure on that particular play, which forced Deshaun Watson to
- 8:55Speaker 8: get the ball out early. But I think as a unit...
- 8:58Speaker 8: They just picked up where they left off a year ago.
- 9:00Speaker 8: Those two guys, I believe, make each other better. I
- 9:03Speaker 8: think they have some sort of friendly inside competition, you know,
- 9:08Speaker 8: to get after the quarterback. And they're making the entire
- 9:10Speaker 8: group better as a whole. And without them displaying the
- 9:13Speaker 8: type of pressure week in and week out, the defense
- 9:16Speaker 8: isn't nearly as good as they are.
- 9:21Speaker 2: All right, Jaguars postgame show rolls along here, and we'll
- 9:24Speaker 2: return to the Hyundai Studios in the aftermath of a
- 9:27Speaker 2: 34-10 shellacking of the Cleveland Browns after this on Jaguars Radio.
- 9:38Speaker 2: Jaguars postgame show continues. Brought to you by GEHA, Government
- 9:42Speaker 2: Employees Health Association. Benefits for federal employees and retirees. Jaguars
- 9:47Speaker 2: 34-10 winners today. The game was presented by Publix, where
- 9:52Speaker 2: shopping is a pleasure. Mark Duffner, Fred Taylor, Mike Dempsey. Duff,
- 9:56Speaker 2: since you're here, let's talk linebackers. If there is a
- 9:58Speaker 2: defensive player of the game, we just talked about the
- 10:00Speaker 2: two pass rushers. Obviously, they had a huge impact. But
- 10:04Speaker 2: Ventrell Miller filling in for Devin Lloyd, right, taking over
- 10:07Speaker 2: that spot. Took over that spot. Nine tackles, a sack,
- 10:11Speaker 2: a forced fumble. And, Mike, the play that you haven't
- 10:13Speaker 2: stopped talking about since you watched it, the pressure that
- 10:16Speaker 2: he got that set up the interception by Oluokun.
- 10:18Speaker 4: Coach, he comes up the middle, right, and he gets
- 10:20Speaker 4: knocked off his feet. And you're thinking, okay, that's too bad.
- 10:24Speaker 4: But he never goes to his feet or off his feet.
- 10:27Speaker 4: He put his hands down. He kind of cartwheeled and
- 10:30Speaker 4: got right back into Sean Watson's face and forced that throw.
- 10:33Speaker 4: And they were in rhythm at that point a little
- 10:35Speaker 4: bit offensively. I mean, this is the best rhythm they
- 10:38Speaker 4: had until late in the game. So, yeah, I thought
- 10:40Speaker 4: that was a big play by Ventrell to help set
- 10:43Speaker 4: the tone today.
- 10:43Speaker 7: Oh, you felt him all day long. I mean, he
- 10:45Speaker 7: was productive, as you just talked about. Excellent day for him.
- 10:48Speaker 7: And he got involved in terms of the Got a
- 10:51Speaker 7: quarterback sack, so did Combs. So it wasn't just our
- 10:53Speaker 7: edge guys, our linebackers too. Anthony Campanile's using all those guys.
- 10:57Speaker 7: I think Anthony Johnson had a half a sack. So
- 11:01Speaker 7: a lot of guys acted by affecting the quarterback.
- 11:03Speaker 8: I can be a testament to what Trayvon Walker mentioned
- 11:08Speaker 8: a second ago about getting the guys excited, making big plays.
- 11:12Speaker 8: And when you look at Ventrell Miller, that forced fumble,
- 11:15Speaker 8: it eventually led to a touchdown. You can imagine the
- 11:18Speaker 8: energy and excitement that the guys had around that one
- 11:22Speaker 8: player that enthused everyone on the bench. It just makes
- 11:25Speaker 8: you want to go out there and just dominate the game.
- 11:27Speaker 8: And that's my theme for the day. Because collectively, as
- 11:30Speaker 8: a group, they all did it. But individually, these guys,
- 11:34Speaker 8: they made it a mission to want to go out
- 11:36Speaker 8: there and play their best, having not played many snaps
- 11:39Speaker 8: over the offseason.
- 11:40Speaker 5: Fred, they were on a mission. You're 100% correct.
- 11:42Speaker 7: And what you said, and Brian, you said earlier, what
- 11:44Speaker 7: did our offense do when they got takeaways, defense-caused takeaways?
- 11:48Speaker 2: Two touchdowns, two takeaways, two touchdowns. 34-10, the Jaguars, big
- 11:53Speaker 2: winners today over the Cleveland Browns. The numbers, if someone
- 11:57Speaker 2: looks at the numbers, right, besides the score, they say, well,
- 12:00Speaker 2: wasn't that different, right? They ended up with 272 yards.
- 12:05Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson had 205 yards and a 97 passer rating.
- 12:09Speaker 2: But when you look at it at halftime, they had
- 12:11Speaker 2: 88 yards, guys. They had done nothing. The Jaguars scored
- 12:14Speaker 2: on four or five drives to open the game, six
- 12:18Speaker 2: of seven before Trevor Lawrence left the game. It was
- 12:21Speaker 2: utter domination from the start by that defense. And we
- 12:25Speaker 2: talked about linebackers and the front now. The secondary was
- 12:28Speaker 2: supposed to be a strength of this team based on
- 12:30Speaker 2: what we had seen. Did you see it that way?
- 12:32Speaker 8: Yeah, I thought the secondary played well, but I think
- 12:34Speaker 8: they're just playing as a unit, as they're supposed to.
- 12:38Speaker 8: You get pressure up front, you play better coverage on
- 12:41Speaker 8: the back end when the pressure isn't so great up front.
- 12:44Speaker 8: The back end has to hold it down. You know,
- 12:46Speaker 8: with the exception of the one big play at the
- 12:48Speaker 8: very end of the game right there, the kid Boston
- 12:51Speaker 8: beat Monteric Brown, I think if you take that 42-yard, 42-yard,
- 12:56Speaker 8: 46-yard play out of the stats, then, again, going back
- 13:02Speaker 8: to the word domination, that's what it looks like. But
- 13:06Speaker 8: stats are stats. I think the scoreboard is more important.
- 13:09Speaker 2: All right, fans, on Tuesday, that's September the 15th, head
- 13:12Speaker 2: to the Publix at 12541 Yellow Bluff Road and meet
- 13:16Speaker 2: some players from the Jags, as well as Jackson DeVille
- 13:18Speaker 2: and members of the Roar Publix, where shopping is a pleasure.
- 13:21Speaker 2: Much more to come on Jaguars postgame. We are waiting
- 13:24Speaker 2: on the head coach, and that interview will be presented
- 13:26Speaker 2: by GEHA, Government Employees Health Association, benefits for federal employees
- 13:32Speaker 2: and retirees. Back after this on the Jaguars Radio Network.
- 13:40Speaker 2: Welcome back to Jaguars post game brought to you by
- 13:42Speaker 2: GEHA government employees, health association benefits for federal employees and retirees.
- 13:47Speaker 2: And let's head to the Everbank vault. Bucky Brooks has
- 13:50Speaker 2: Ventrell Miller, Everbank advantage. You Everbank talks a big game.
- 13:53Speaker 2: Other banks talk a big game. Everbank delivers big results.
- 13:57Speaker 2: Set up your game plan at everbank.com slash Jaguars. Bucky Brooks,
- 14:01Speaker 2: take it away.
- 14:03Speaker 9: Ventrell, great game by this team, by this defense. Talk
- 14:05Speaker 9: about the effort today.
- 14:07Speaker 12: Um, We say just a defensive philosophy, just coming out
- 14:11Speaker 12: trying to start the run, limit big plays and create takeaways,
- 14:13Speaker 12: and we did a good job with that, but we
- 14:16Speaker 12: continue to build each and every week, so I think
- 14:18Speaker 12: it was a good start.
- 14:18Speaker 3: Good debut.
- 14:19Speaker 9: Well, one thing I know about playing on great defense,
- 14:21Speaker 9: there's always someone that's the tone setter. Someone has to
- 14:23Speaker 9: deliver that first big hit. It seemed like early in
- 14:25Speaker 9: the game, you guys were knocking them off. Talk about
- 14:27Speaker 9: the physicality of this defense.
- 14:29Speaker 13: Most definitely.
- 14:29Speaker 12: That's the I mean, that's the mentality that we have
- 14:32Speaker 12: on defense. Out physically, everybody we play, whether that's up front, secondaries,
- 14:36Speaker 12: cornerbacks coming to tackle, linebackers hitting, attacking blocks. So that's
- 14:40Speaker 12: just the mentality of the whole defense.
- 14:42Speaker 9: It's not only the mentality of the defense to be
- 14:44Speaker 9: more physical, but you guys take the ball away at
- 14:46Speaker 9: a great rate, stop the run, force them to pass,
- 14:48Speaker 9: get after the thing. Just talk about what was working today.
- 14:51Speaker 12: I mean, it's a lot easier when you got some
- 14:53Speaker 12: dogs up front working, taking care of those guys up
- 14:56Speaker 12: front so the linebackers can flow around a little bit, but.
- 15:00Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 15:00Speaker 9: Like you said, just out competing to everybody.
- 15:02Speaker 3: That's the mindset.
- 15:03Speaker 12: Competing, trying to not stand blocked, getting off blocks, and
- 15:06Speaker 12: that's still the result.
- 15:08Speaker 9: Yeah, I know Cam says good things happen when you
- 15:10Speaker 9: guys run to the ball. You certainly would run into
- 15:11Speaker 9: the ball. But let's go on the other side because
- 15:13Speaker 9: it's one thing to play defense when it's a tough game.
- 15:16Speaker 9: But when you're watching the offense go up and down
- 15:17Speaker 9: the field, what kind of energy does they bring to
- 15:19Speaker 9: the defense to go out and know the offense can
- 15:20Speaker 9: put points up?
- 15:21Speaker 12: Yeah, definitely helps the defense. Brains that motivation to the defense.
- 15:26Speaker 12: Go back out there and get the offense the ball back.
- 15:28Speaker 9: So, you know, they've been doing good.
- 15:30Speaker 12: So just trying to keep feeding the offense the ball because,
- 15:32Speaker 12: you know, they do good things with it when they
- 15:34Speaker 12: have it.
- 15:35Speaker 9: Okay, so we got the Broncos coming up next week.
- 15:37Speaker 9: Got to go on the road. How do we build
- 15:38Speaker 9: on this for next week?
- 15:40Speaker 12: Uh, I think it just starts at practice, uh, coming out,
- 15:42Speaker 12: having the right mindset at practice, uh, seeing the looks
- 15:45Speaker 12: that we're going to get and continue to get better,
- 15:47Speaker 12: correct the things that we made mistakes on and continue
- 15:50Speaker 12: to grow.
- 15:50Speaker 9: Well, look, man, we're looking forward to next week. Good
- 15:52Speaker 9: luck next week.
- 15:52Speaker 14: Alrighty.
- 15:52Speaker 9: Thanks so much.
- 15:54Speaker 2: Nine tackles for Ventrell Miller today, the sack and the
- 15:57Speaker 2: forced fumble, as well as the incredible pressure early that, uh,
- 16:02Speaker 2: that set up the interception by a foyer. It's violent, right?
- 16:07Speaker 4: I mean, they want to set a physical tone, uh,
- 16:09Speaker 4: Ventrell was all of that in college. His only issue
- 16:13Speaker 4: is staying healthy.
- 16:14Speaker 2: All right, let's go back downstairs to the Everbank vault.
- 16:17Speaker 2: The head coach is with Bucky Brooks.
- 16:20Speaker 9: Coach, comments on a great win, solid win, week one.
- 16:23Speaker 2: Yeah, good team win.
- 16:24Speaker 11: I think when you see the amount of guys that
- 16:27Speaker 11: caught balls today, caught touchdowns today, were involved in the win,
- 16:32Speaker 11: specifically on the offensive side of the ball, and then
- 16:35Speaker 11: on defense, I thought.
- 16:36Speaker 2: We really played well.
- 16:38Speaker 11: You know, only really gave up the three points when
- 16:40Speaker 11: they had the short field on the kickoff return, and
- 16:43Speaker 11: then the garbage time touchdown that we obviously don't want
- 16:45Speaker 11: to have. It's something we would love to clean up,
- 16:47Speaker 11: but I thought our defense flew around. They were banging.
- 16:50Speaker 11: They were hitting hard. We were getting off blocks. We
- 16:53Speaker 11: were attacking the football. And then I think we were
- 16:56Speaker 11: solid in the kicking game. Some things, obviously, on kickoff
- 16:58Speaker 11: that we need to continue to improve on.
- 17:00Speaker 9: Offensively, there's a saying, look, the ball will find the
- 17:03Speaker 9: open man.
- 17:04Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 17:04Speaker 9: And solid systems. And today, it seemed like there's a
- 17:07Speaker 9: moment where Parker had his thing.
- 17:08Speaker 13: Yep.
- 17:09Speaker 9: Bronson Jr.
- 17:10Speaker 15: Yep.
- 17:10Speaker 9: All the guys doing.
- 17:11Speaker 13: Yep.
- 17:11Speaker 9: So just talk about the evolution of the offense and
- 17:13Speaker 9: the growth and development of wide receivers.
- 17:15Speaker 11: Yeah, I think when– you know, Trevor is spitting the ball.
- 17:20Speaker 11: It's coming out of his hand. You know, then he's
- 17:22Speaker 11: also scrambling and getting some opportunities. But what was cool
- 17:26Speaker 11: to see was, okay, Josh Cameron goes in very early
- 17:29Speaker 11: on on a play call that was designed for him
- 17:32Speaker 11: and Jacoby. And he has Jacoby on one side and
- 17:35Speaker 11: Josh on the other. The safety kind of leaned to Jacoby.
- 17:38Speaker 11: And he goes, Josh on Denzel Ward, one-on-one.
- 17:40Speaker 2: Here we go.
- 17:41Speaker 11: And Makes an unbelievable throw, and Josh makes a dang
- 17:44Speaker 11: good catch, strong-handed in traffic. And then we had another
- 17:49Speaker 11: drive where I think Strange hadn't really gotten as involved yet,
- 17:52Speaker 11: where I'm like, okay, I want to get Brenton involved here.
- 17:55Speaker 11: Then he ends up catching the touchdown on that drive.
- 17:58Speaker 11: That's pretty cool to have that confidence in them that
- 18:02Speaker 11: I have as a play caller, but also in those
- 18:04Speaker 11: guys to go out and trust each other and go execute.
- 18:07Speaker 11: That is pretty fun to watch.
- 18:09Speaker 9: One of the things you talked about, the importance of
- 18:10Speaker 9: the running game. Not only to control it, but how
- 18:13Speaker 9: it sets up other things in a passing game. It
- 18:14Speaker 9: seemed like they were working together.
- 18:17Speaker 2: Thoughts on the running game today?
- 18:18Speaker 11: I thought it was some good stuff. I don't know
- 18:21Speaker 11: what exactly we ended up per, but I think it
- 18:24Speaker 11: was more efficient than maybe we were at times, you know,
- 18:29Speaker 11: towards the end of last year. You know, I don't
- 18:31Speaker 11: know what the heck.
- 18:32Speaker 9: 32 for 126.
- 18:32Speaker 2: Okay.
- 18:33Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 18:35Speaker 11: I mean, some of those are probably some quarterback stuff
- 18:37Speaker 11: as well.
- 18:37Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 18:38Speaker 11: So, you know, I think that, you know, the goal
- 18:41Speaker 11: we're trying to do is, you know, not having so
- 18:45Speaker 11: much volume that it– kind of muddies up for efficiency
- 18:49Speaker 11: if you will and so I thought the run game
- 18:52Speaker 11: was pretty solid during during the course of the day
- 18:55Speaker 11: I think I probably could have ran a little bit
- 18:57Speaker 11: more in times but it was it was balanced I
- 19:01Speaker 11: thought that you know we handled verse the way that
- 19:04Speaker 11: we wanted to and we we kind of ran at
- 19:07Speaker 11: him at times that was something we wanted to do
- 19:09Speaker 11: and try to run at him and run at these
- 19:12Speaker 11: guys a little bit we mixed our schemes up with
- 19:15Speaker 11: inside and outside runs and I thought all three backs
- 19:17Speaker 11: ran hard. You know, I mean, Amir came in and
- 19:19Speaker 11: popped some runs later on. Tootin, I think, ran really hard.
- 19:22Speaker 11: Chris gave us some good hard runs. So it's still
- 19:25Speaker 11: a work in progress, but it was definitely a good start.
- 19:28Speaker 9: Last thing, halftime, you were talking about the physicality, the violence,
- 19:32Speaker 9: like taking it up a notch. Defensively, good things happen
- 19:35Speaker 9: when they kind of start. Being physical is contagious. So
- 19:38Speaker 9: we talked about the identity of the team and how
- 19:40Speaker 9: physical is. Why is it so important for you to
- 19:41Speaker 9: make sure you convey that message to the team each
- 19:43Speaker 9: and every week?
- 19:44Speaker 11: Yeah, that's that's that's our style of play, you know,
- 19:46Speaker 11: and like that's our best chance at success, right?
- 19:49Speaker 13: Like.
- 19:50Speaker 11: I don't know how often we're going to walk into
- 19:52Speaker 11: a stadium and out finesse you or out like just
- 19:56Speaker 11: surgical you right you know in a lot of different
- 19:59Speaker 11: ways that we have to lean into who we are
- 20:03Speaker 11: every single time we hit the grass it started against
- 20:06Speaker 11: carolina and Tampa, both joints, the reason for the success
- 20:10Speaker 11: in those joints wasn't all execution.
- 20:12Speaker 2: It was violence.
- 20:13Speaker 11: It was physicality. It was effort. It was strain playing together.
- 20:17Speaker 11: These guys, when they bring the energy and they're celebrating together,
- 20:20Speaker 11: that's infectious. It's momentum and everybody feels it, you know?
- 20:24Speaker 11: And so that's gotta be our brand. That has to
- 20:27Speaker 11: be our identity. I think the guys know and understand
- 20:30Speaker 11: that it is their identity and, I wanted to tick
- 20:32Speaker 11: him off a little bit and showed him a little
- 20:34Speaker 11: Buffalo last night. I showed him the scoreboard of the
- 20:38Speaker 11: Buffalo game at the end of the game last night,
- 20:40Speaker 11: so I wanted to piss him off.
- 20:42Speaker 2: I think it worked.
- 20:43Speaker 9: It absolutely works.
- 20:45Speaker 3: Got a big week next week.
- 20:46Speaker 2: Looking forward to week two.
- 20:46Speaker 11: Yeah, this is obviously going on the road and playing
- 20:50Speaker 11: a high-quality opponent. that we have a lot of respect
- 20:53Speaker 11: for and understand what we're walking into. You know, it's
- 20:56Speaker 11: definitely everything is going to be taken up a notch.
- 20:59Speaker 11: I would imagine going out there and playing against those
- 21:01Speaker 11: guys in that environment. So, yeah, you know, with them,
- 21:05Speaker 11: they got a Monday night game, I believe. So we
- 21:08Speaker 11: have to wait a little bit to get their tape
- 21:10Speaker 11: and to see what they're going to be doing with
- 21:12Speaker 11: a new offensive coordinator calling plays. But, you know, Sean
- 21:16Speaker 11: Payton and the team is going to be well coached,
- 21:18Speaker 11: and that's just the way it is. So we know
- 21:19Speaker 11: what we're walking into.
- 21:21Speaker 9: Well, look, man, we're looking forward to it next week.
- 21:22Speaker 11: Thank you.
- 21:22Speaker 2: Appreciate it, Bucky. The head coach of the postgame presented
- 21:25Speaker 2: by GEHA, Government Employees Health Association, benefits for federal employees
- 21:30Speaker 2: and retirees spread. They were talking about the rushing numbers,
- 21:32Speaker 2: and that's been such a big storyline of what we've
- 21:35Speaker 2: talked about, getting the running game going. He said there
- 21:37Speaker 2: were a couple things that they wanted to talk about.
- 21:39Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 21:40Speaker 2: And look at the numbers here. Here are the numbers
- 21:41Speaker 2: for Tutin, Abdullah, and Rodriguez, the three guys who ran
- 21:45Speaker 2: up the middle today. 25 carries, 121 yards, 4.85 per carry.
- 21:53Speaker 2: That would seem to me that they were very successful
- 21:56Speaker 2: with the running game.
- 21:57Speaker 8: Yeah, you can get it done with those numbers. And again,
- 21:59Speaker 8: it goes back to just keeping the chains moving. Even
- 22:02Speaker 8: if the average per carry isn't as hefty as it is,
- 22:07Speaker 8: you just want to make sure you're creating a certain
- 22:09Speaker 8: balance with the play card throughout the course of the games,
- 22:12Speaker 8: as I.
- 22:13Speaker 3: Mentioned on pregame.
- 22:14Speaker 8: Third and one, you want to execute, keep the chain moving,
- 22:17Speaker 8: and eventually get points from it. And here and there,
- 22:20Speaker 8: a big play, a big run, that also helps too.
- 22:23Speaker 8: So I definitely give credit to the guys for what
- 22:27Speaker 8: they did today. I thought they were quick, downhill, decisive,
- 22:30Speaker 8: and finishing with four-pad lead. So give the play call options.
- 22:36Speaker 2: Outstanding Jaguars win 34-10 over the Cleveland Browns. When the
- 22:39Speaker 2: Jaguars bring home the W, you win a free Whataburger.
- 22:43Speaker 2: So go get your Whataburger. Final score 34-10 and much
- 22:47Speaker 2: more ahead on the Jaguars postgame show here on Jaguars Radio.
- 22:55Speaker 2: We're back on Jaguars postgame presented by GEHA. Brian, Mike, Fred,
- 22:59Speaker 2: and Mark Duffner from the Hyundai Studios. And PRI Productions
- 23:03Speaker 2: presented the game today. They are the official event production
- 23:07Speaker 2: company of the Jaguars. They have everything you need to
- 23:09Speaker 2: bring your next idea to life. Visit PRIProductions.com. Mike, Buffalo
- 23:15Speaker 2: Bills came up with a big win over the Houston Texans.
- 23:18Speaker 4: They're the winners today. The Texans go down. It came
- 23:20Speaker 4: right down to the wire, and C.J. Stroud lost the
- 23:23Speaker 4: ball in the pocket under pressure, and the Buffalo came
- 23:26Speaker 4: up with it on the third down. They seal that victory.
- 23:30Speaker 4: Indy loses to Baltimore, and the Titans lose to the Jets.
- 23:33Speaker 4: The Jags are 1-0. The rest of the division is 0-3.
- 23:36Speaker 2: But that one against Buffalo is important.
- 23:38Speaker 3: Well, yeah.
- 23:39Speaker 4: I mean, it's the equivalent of the Jags playing New
- 23:41Speaker 4: England in Week 3 because it's your one game if
- 23:44Speaker 4: you're Houston against the AFCE. So if the Jags can
- 23:48Speaker 4: win against New England without A.J. Brown in the third
- 23:51Speaker 4: week of the season, that's the equivalent of basically that's
- 23:53Speaker 4: the same opponent that you're going to be playing because
- 23:56Speaker 4: the Jags had the first-place schedule. They got the Patriots
- 23:59Speaker 4: and the Bills obviously finish in second place got the
- 24:02Speaker 4: Texans so that's a big win Josh Allen has historically
- 24:05Speaker 4: struggled against that Texans defense like a lot of people
- 24:07Speaker 4: have but last I saw the Jags were holding Buffalo
- 24:11Speaker 4: to 23 I thought and then the greatest defense Fred
- 24:14Speaker 4: ever invented gave up 36 today how could that possibly.
- 24:18Speaker 8: Be yeah that's a defense that that comes with a
- 24:21Speaker 8: lot of hype they got a lot of amazing players
- 24:24Speaker 8: they just got to play when it's crunch time and
- 24:27Speaker 8: obviously today they were exposed by one of the game's
- 24:29Speaker 8: best quarterback or in the history of the game in
- 24:33Speaker 8: Josh Allen.
- 24:33Speaker 3: They just made big play after big play.
- 24:35Speaker 8: The two 96-yard drives, so impressive by Buffalo, and thankfully
- 24:41Speaker 8: they got it done for us.
- 24:43Speaker 2: Amen to that. Duff, it's all coming up roses for
- 24:45Speaker 2: the Jags today.
- 24:45Speaker 7: Oh, yeah, and I'll tell you, I was highly impressed
- 24:47Speaker 7: with what we did on offense. We talked about a
- 24:49Speaker 7: lot of statistics, but here it was. They opened up
- 24:52Speaker 7: the screen game. They had wide receiver screens. They had
- 24:54Speaker 7: halfback screens. They showed Wildcat. C-Rod was the quarterback in
- 24:59Speaker 7: the Wildcat. They utilized cadence well. They got two offsides
- 25:03Speaker 7: from Cleveland, and.
- 25:04Speaker 5: They had tempo.
- 25:05Speaker 7: So they used all the tools that they had at
- 25:08Speaker 7: their options in terms of tempo, cadence, gadget plays, Wildcat,
- 25:12Speaker 7: screen game, excellent game plan.
- 25:14Speaker 5: By the offense.
- 25:15Speaker 8: Yeah, and then also you've got to also throw in
- 25:17Speaker 8: Coach Cohen. It's just a good team win across the board.
- 25:21Speaker 8: It's the energy, the identity, and the fact that they
- 25:24Speaker 8: were very well balanced. I think that speaks volumes, especially
- 25:28Speaker 8: game one.
- 25:29Speaker 5: Without a doubt.
- 25:29Speaker 7: And they said they wanted to take the stink out
- 25:32Speaker 7: of the run game. They established the run game today.
- 25:34Speaker 7: They affected the quarterback. They protected the quarterback. O-line did
- 25:37Speaker 7: a great job.
- 25:38Speaker 2: Affecting the quarterback was one of your big storylines.
- 25:40Speaker 16: For sure.
- 25:40Speaker 2: Josh Hines-Allen and Trayvon Walker combined for three sacks. Josh
- 25:43Speaker 2: Hines-Allen is at the podium right now. Let's listen in.
- 25:46Speaker 17: I was like, oh, okay. And so then we got
- 25:50Speaker 17: that interception. For me, it was like, that was the
- 25:53Speaker 17: statement right there. This is when the game is going
- 25:56Speaker 17: to turn that fast. And we kind of continued to
- 26:00Speaker 17: do that. Offense came down and scored. And then it
- 26:02Speaker 17: was just like, let's hold them. I wanted to hold
- 26:05Speaker 17: them to zero all game. Kept them under 100 rushing yards.
- 26:10Speaker 17: I know they had that one explosive the last play
- 26:13Speaker 17: of the game. But, you know, we stopped the run,
- 26:15Speaker 17: eliminated explosive, create turnovers. That's our recipe for success. And
- 26:20Speaker 17: we accomplished 89% of it. So I'm happy with that.
- 26:26Speaker 16: Josh, the biggest free agent loss for your side of
- 26:29Speaker 16: the ball and maybe for the team.
- 26:30Speaker 5: As a whole was Devin Lloyd.
- 26:31Speaker 16: People are asking, even up to kickoff today, what are
- 26:33Speaker 16: you guys going to do to replace him? Your man
- 26:36Speaker 16: Ventrell stuffed the whole stat sheet today. Talk about his
- 26:40Speaker 16: performance from your perspective and how proud you are of
- 26:42Speaker 16: him making the plays that he did today.
- 26:43Speaker 3: Yeah, man, we trust Ventrell.
- 26:47Speaker 17: Day one, I think it was definitely a grind for him,
- 26:51Speaker 17: knowing the expectations that were set on him.
- 26:54Speaker 5: But for him just to play his game, get.
- 26:56Speaker 17: Comfortable in the system, communicate, run fast, be physical, which
- 26:59Speaker 17: he already is. And once he started to understand the
- 27:03Speaker 17: scheme of everything and lining up and just knowing where
- 27:07Speaker 17: the ball was going to be, we knew what type
- 27:09Speaker 17: of play we were going to get from him. And
- 27:11Speaker 17: just to see him make physical tackles after tackle after tackle,
- 27:16Speaker 17: being coverage, making plays on the ball, that's what he does.
- 27:20Speaker 17: And again, man, I'm still going to say, man, he's
- 27:22Speaker 17: going to lead the league in punch-outs, I think. Well,
- 27:26Speaker 17: I know he's going to lead the league in punch-outs.
- 27:27Speaker 17: Let me be more affirmative on that. But the effort
- 27:32Speaker 17: that he played with today, we can expect that every
- 27:34Speaker 17: week from him, and he expects it every week from himself,
- 27:37Speaker 17: which is great to be.
- 27:39Speaker 3: A part of. Josh, it's one thing to see it
- 27:42Speaker 3: on the practice field.
- 27:43Speaker 9: It's one thing to see it in a meeting. But
- 27:44Speaker 9: to see what you guys were able to do on
- 27:46Speaker 9: the field, just how good did that feel today?
- 27:50Speaker 17: Again, it was a great opportunity, great challenge for us.
- 27:55Speaker 17: We had everything against us, less crowded space, and it
- 28:00Speaker 17: was super hot, obviously. We had all the external noises
- 28:04Speaker 17: that we can also be challenged from.
- 28:07Speaker 2: As a defense, as an offense, who we're.
- 28:09Speaker 17: Going to be. We never were the same team after
- 28:12Speaker 17: a great year. Always battling that expectations and then going
- 28:17Speaker 17: out there and just playing our brand of football. Playing
- 28:19Speaker 17: a brand of football that each individual player knows they
- 28:22Speaker 17: can play at.
- 28:25Speaker 3: That's us.
- 28:26Speaker 17: We just want to continue to play at a high level.
- 28:28Speaker 17: Continue to be where we're supposed to be. Offense, defense,
- 28:31Speaker 17: and special teams. Again, I think there's still areas to improve,
- 28:34Speaker 17: but I think it was a great first step for what.
- 28:37Speaker 5: We're trying to get to.
- 28:40Speaker 2: All right, that's Josh Hines-Allen, a sack and a half
- 28:42Speaker 2: today to go along with Trayvon Walker's sack and a half.
- 28:44Speaker 2: Jags had five sacks and two takeaways, and the defense,
- 28:47Speaker 2: as he just said, they wanted to dominate, and boy,
- 28:51Speaker 2: did they. Final score from Jacksonville, 34-10. The Jaguars beat
- 28:54Speaker 2: the Cleveland Browns. We're back with much more up ahead.

- 30:11Speaker 14: When it comes to great taste, Coke Zero Sugar's always
- 30:13Speaker 14: on the scoreboard.
- 30:15Speaker 2: Coke Zero Sugar. Real Coke taste, zero sugar.
- 30:18Speaker 10: Two more!
- 30:20Speaker 2: Football and Duval. What a perfect pairing. And battle cry.
- 30:25Speaker 19: When it comes to a tasty tailgate, the Daily's Duval
- 30:28Speaker 19: Sub delivers. It's your perfect pregame meal on Jaguars game day.
- 30:31Speaker 19: My favorite, the Duval Sub. Ham, turkey, cheddar, and habanero cheese.
- 30:37Speaker 19: Fixin's fresh and delicious. Touchdown, taste buds. It's the best
- 30:42Speaker 19: sub for any season. Especially Jaguar season.
- 30:46Speaker 3: The Duval.
- 30:47Speaker 18: Only at Daily's.
- 30:49Speaker 2: Accidents don't wait for you to be ready.
- 30:51Speaker 6: And when they hit, we've seen insurance companies slow the game.
- 30:55Speaker 9: Let me transfer you.
- 30:56Speaker 6: Paperwork, hold music, excuses. It's the same play over and over.
- 31:00Speaker 15: There are 872 callers ahead of you.
- 31:02Speaker 10: Please remain.
- 31:04Speaker 6: But at Farrah and Farrah, we shift the momentum by
- 31:06Speaker 6: turning up the pressure with the tech, the team, and
- 31:09Speaker 6: the proof to keep your case moving.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Let me be clear.
- 31:13Speaker 6: Farrah doesn't flinch.
- 31:14Speaker 2: Farrah and Farrah, the exclusive injury law firm of your
- 31:17Speaker 2: Jacksonville Jaguars.
- 31:18Speaker 10: Jacksonville.
- 31:22Speaker 2: We're back on Jaguars postgame, presented by GEHA, Brian, Mike, Fred,
- 31:26Speaker 2: and Mark. And let's go from the Hyundai Studios back
- 31:29Speaker 2: across to Everbank Stadium, where Trevor Lawrence has just stepped
- 31:33Speaker 2: to the podium.
- 31:34Speaker 15: Get the right guy the ball. So those guys did
- 31:35Speaker 15: a really good job at protecting. It was just a
- 31:38Speaker 15: clean day. I thought we operated pretty smoothly besides a
- 31:40Speaker 15: couple plays. So definitely a lot to build on and
- 31:44Speaker 15: a good start for us as an offense.
- 31:45Speaker 20: Hey, Trevor, you've seen all of Parker's touchdowns. Where does
- 31:48Speaker 20: that first one rank today in terms of difficulty?
- 31:50Speaker 15: It's pretty good. I just saw a video of it.
- 31:52Speaker 15: I didn't see it. I got hit right when I
- 31:54Speaker 15: threw it, so I never saw him catch it. It's
- 31:57Speaker 15: a pretty sweet catch.
- 31:59Speaker 3: That's up there.
- 32:00Speaker 20: A lot of chatter externally about his future. How well
- 32:03Speaker 20: has he separated the business and the football since.
- 32:06Speaker 3: Training camp started?
- 32:09Speaker 15: You would not even know that's going on, just the
- 32:11Speaker 15: way he carries himself. He's been the same guy. Just
- 32:14Speaker 15: comes to work every day, does everything the right way.
- 32:16Speaker 15: You wouldn't even know that's going on in the background,
- 32:20Speaker 15: so really just impressed with how he's handled that but
- 32:24Speaker 15: not surprised and just he's a you know he's a
- 32:27Speaker 15: worker and he's a stud had a great day today.
- 32:30Speaker 13: Liam talked earlier about making sure you started fast and
- 32:33Speaker 13: that sort of goes back to some of the preparations
- 32:35Speaker 13: you guys made during the week and how comfortable you
- 32:37Speaker 13: felt with everything on Friday can you just kind of
- 32:39Speaker 13: take us through that and how that kind of helped today?
- 32:42Speaker 15: Yeah I thought we had a great week of practice
- 32:45Speaker 15: you know we really kind of pushed ourselves physically just
- 32:48Speaker 15: to be ready for you know it's hot today the
- 32:50Speaker 15: heat and I'm sure Cleveland coming down, that is a factor, obviously,
- 32:53Speaker 15: in the game, and we're able to practice in that
- 32:55Speaker 15: every day. So we really pushed during the week, but
- 32:58Speaker 15: also just had clean practices. Not everything's perfect, but really clean, detailed,
- 33:02Speaker 15: felt like there was a really good understanding of the
- 33:04Speaker 15: plan from everyone on offense, especially by the end of
- 33:08Speaker 15: the week. And then just our process, too, now having
- 33:12Speaker 15: one year under my belt game planning with Liam and
- 33:15Speaker 15: Grant and that process and how we talked towards the
- 33:18Speaker 15: end of the week and really dialing the plan, I
- 33:19Speaker 15: felt like it was buttoned up pretty good by the
- 33:21Speaker 15: time we walked in to the building Saturday and then
- 33:24Speaker 15: got to touch up some stuff. So, yeah, I felt really,
- 33:27Speaker 15: really good about it.
- 33:28Speaker 13: Was it a priority for you to make sure you
- 33:30Speaker 13: personally started fast?
- 33:32Speaker 15: I think it's always, yeah, it's always the goal is to,
- 33:35Speaker 15: you know, you want to start the game fast and
- 33:39Speaker 15: play well in that first possession so you can settle
- 33:41Speaker 15: in as soon as possible and not give the ball
- 33:43Speaker 15: back to the other team. So, I think that's always
- 33:45Speaker 15: something you want to do, but I think it comes
- 33:48Speaker 15: down to preparation. Also, every game's different. You don't know
- 33:53Speaker 15: exactly what the defense is going to do for a series.
- 33:56Speaker 15: So there's a lot of moving parts, but I think
- 33:58Speaker 15: for us to be able to start fast today like
- 33:59Speaker 15: we did, that is the goal moving forward, obviously, and
- 34:02Speaker 15: I'm going to continue to build on that.
- 34:04Speaker 2: That's quarterback Trevor Lawrence from the podium over at Everbank Stadium.
- 34:08Speaker 2: Brian Sexton, Mark Duffner, Fred Taylor, and Mike Dempsey here
- 34:12Speaker 2: in the Hyundai Studios inside Everbank Stadium. I'm sorry, inside
- 34:16Speaker 2: the Miller Electric Center. We're going to do an Everbank
- 34:18Speaker 2: stats check, Mike, which means that I'm going to give
- 34:21Speaker 2: you the numbers. I'm confused by Everbank, but listen. I
- 34:23Speaker 2: don't think you're that confused. They're fast, and they're good.
- 34:26Speaker 2: 360 yards of total offense for the Jaguars today. 126
- 34:29Speaker 2: on the ground, and as you heard me say to
- 34:30Speaker 2: Fred just a couple of minutes ago, from the keybacks, Tootin, Abdul,
- 34:34Speaker 2: and Rodriguez, 4.85 per carry on 25 carries for 121 yards.
- 34:41Speaker 2: Here's a number that really stands out. Turnovers. The Jaguars
- 34:44Speaker 2: had none. The Browns had two. How about penalties? The
- 34:47Speaker 2: Jaguars had four for 25 yards. The Cleveland Browns, 11
- 34:51Speaker 2: for 75 yards. Mike, Jaguars dominate five of 10 on
- 34:56Speaker 2: third down. Listen, 50% on third down. That is what
- 34:59Speaker 2: Peyton Manning and the Colts used to put up. So
- 35:02Speaker 2: you're talking about being in the elite area of third
- 35:05Speaker 2: down conversions when you're over 50%.
- 35:06Speaker 4: Yeah, we were deep into this game before they allowed
- 35:08Speaker 4: a third down conversion to be successfully completed.
- 35:11Speaker 2: The Browns were one of eight. That's right.
- 35:13Speaker 4: So individually, Trevor Lawrence, what more is there to say?
- 35:16Speaker 4: 18 to 23. It felt like he threw it a
- 35:18Speaker 4: lot more than that. Felt like he threw it more
- 35:20Speaker 4: than that in the first quarter, but he threw for
- 35:23Speaker 4: 245 yards, four touchdowns on the day, averaged 10.7 yards
- 35:26Speaker 4: per attempt, a passer rating over 150 and only was
- 35:31Speaker 4: given up that one sack today. Deshaun Watson threw for 205.
- 35:35Speaker 4: And again, as you talked about earlier, Brian, the number,
- 35:37Speaker 4: 97.7 passer rating.
- 35:39Speaker 2: Okay. What does it mean?
- 35:42Speaker 10: I mean, right.
- 35:42Speaker 2: His completion percentage was 16 out of 22. He's very
- 35:45Speaker 2: close to Trevor Lawrence in that category. But it wasn't
- 35:48Speaker 2: even close when you watched that game.
- 35:49Speaker 14: Right.
- 35:50Speaker 2: There was such a gulf between the two. The five-year-old rule, right?
- 35:52Speaker 2: You put the five-year-old ringside. Put the five-year-old ringside, and
- 35:54Speaker 2: he'll tell you who won the fight every time. And
- 35:56Speaker 2: he's right 97% of the time. Without a doubt. Anything
- 35:59Speaker 2: else stand out?
- 35:59Speaker 4: Yeah, a couple of things. Basil Tootin had 15 carries today.
- 36:03Speaker 4: for 66 yards on the ground. Parker Washington was spectacular early,
- 36:07Speaker 4: and then kind of, you know, didn't need him the
- 36:09Speaker 4: rest of the way. Five grabs early for 83, but
- 36:11Speaker 4: touchdown receptions for Parker, Jacoby Myers, Brenton Strange, and Josh Cameron,
- 36:16Speaker 4: his first ever in the NFL. And sacks, Josh Heinz-Allen
- 36:20Speaker 4: and Trayvon, each had a sack and a half, one
- 36:23Speaker 4: for Branson Combs, one for Ventrell Miller.
- 36:25Speaker 2: By the way, the touchdown passes today, the way he
- 36:27Speaker 2: floated the ball out, Fred, for Parker Washington... The throw
- 36:31Speaker 2: he made to Josh Cameron, Duff, and then the one
- 36:34Speaker 2: that was my favorite, and I think yours too, Mike,
- 36:36Speaker 2: was when he rolled out to his left, right-handed quarterback,
- 36:40Speaker 2: put the ball on a dime to Jacoby Myers in
- 36:42Speaker 2: the back of the end zone to make it 21-0.
- 36:43Speaker 8: Yeah, speaking to Liam this offseason on our podcast, he
- 36:48Speaker 8: mentioned that Trevor can make all of the throws. He's
- 36:50Speaker 8: even more deadly outside of the pocket on the run,
- 36:53Speaker 8: being able to, as you mentioned, scramble to his left,
- 36:56Speaker 8: square his body, and make those tough throws. But I
- 37:00Speaker 8: think what's most important with what Trevor said there was
- 37:04Speaker 8: the game planning, how it's buttoned up, how they're able
- 37:07Speaker 8: to communicate. Like, they have a system, how they study
- 37:10Speaker 8: and they prep and they get ready for the game,
- 37:14Speaker 8: which allows him to play much faster, be able to
- 37:16Speaker 8: make those decisions that lead to, you know, those touchdowns.
- 37:20Speaker 8: And I think that was key today, just his decision-making,
- 37:23Speaker 8: putting it in tight windows, finding the open guy, sideline
- 37:26Speaker 8: throws in the middle, deep ball.
- 37:27Speaker 3: He made all of the throws. Minus the left-handed attempt.
- 37:31Speaker 2: Yeah, that was the one. That's the one point you go, hey.
- 37:33Speaker 3: Other than that, he had an amazing game.
- 37:35Speaker 2: So you're saying he's an A-plus.
- 37:37Speaker 3: Well, it was 78% pass.
- 37:39Speaker 8: And it depends on what the kid's court side is
- 37:41Speaker 8: going to say, too.
- 37:42Speaker 2: What would the court side say? The kid loved it.
- 37:44Speaker 2: The kid gave two thumbs up. I don't know what
- 37:46Speaker 2: number he put on it.
- 37:47Speaker 15: 99.8.
- 37:47Speaker 8: We can give the college degree with an 80% raise
- 37:50Speaker 8: if you round it up. So I thought he had
- 37:52Speaker 8: a great day. with four touchdowns, 38 a year ago.
- 37:57Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 37:58Speaker 3: I think he'll break that.
- 37:59Speaker 2: Jaguars win 34 to 10. Hey, Jags fans, it's time
- 38:03Speaker 2: to bring the energy. If the Jaguars score in the
- 38:04Speaker 2: third quarter, and they did, right? Yes, they did. First
- 38:07Speaker 2: drive in the third quarter. You'll score free Culver's medium
- 38:11Speaker 2: Wisconsin cheese curds with a purchase. The offer is only
- 38:16Speaker 2: available for Culver's delicious rewards members. Let me correct myself.
- 38:21Speaker 2: Did not score in the fourth quarter.
- 38:23Speaker 15: Okay.
- 38:23Speaker 2: But they did score in the third. They did score
- 38:25Speaker 2: 10 in the third. So you still get the free
- 38:27Speaker 2: medium Culver's Wisconsin cheese curds with a purchase. And Duff
- 38:32Speaker 2: once coached in Green Bay. He knows how delicious those
- 38:34Speaker 2: can be. He's on his way back out to the beach.
- 38:37Speaker 2: He's going to stop at the Culver's over there.
- 38:39Speaker 5: Count on it.
- 38:40Speaker 2: And grab his. We'll take a break and be back
- 38:44Speaker 2: with more, including the Jaguars Radio Network Player of the
- 38:46Speaker 2: Game voting. You're listening to Jaguars Postgame on Jaguars Radio.
- 38:54Speaker 2: Jaguars postgame show rolls along. Jaguars, 34-10 winners over the
- 38:58Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns at Everbank Stadium today. And our postgame show
- 39:02Speaker 2: brought to you by GEHA, Government Employees Health Association. Time
- 39:05Speaker 2: now for the Jaguars Radio Network Player of the Game voting. Mike,
- 39:09Speaker 2: I'll let you run it. All right.
- 39:11Speaker 4: Usually what we have done in the past, we've had
- 39:13Speaker 4: three voters, right? And it'd be like J.P. Shatter could
- 39:16Speaker 4: have a vote.
- 39:17Speaker 3: I'd have a vote.
- 39:17Speaker 2: Fred gets a vote and a half. I think it
- 39:19Speaker 2: still works.
- 39:19Speaker 4: If we just give Fred the vote and a half,
- 39:21Speaker 4: that way if there's a 2-2 split, then we're going
- 39:24Speaker 4: to have a clear winner every time.
- 39:26Speaker 2: I'm going to guess there's not a 2-2 split today,
- 39:28Speaker 2: Fred goes last to see if.
- 39:30Speaker 3: He breaks it. I can go first. I can go second.
- 39:33Speaker 3: You can go anytime.
- 39:34Speaker 2: But I think with the vote in half, the mystery
- 39:35Speaker 2: is really you going last.
- 39:36Speaker 3: It doesn't always work that way.
- 39:38Speaker 4: Sometimes we have him outvoted by the time he gets
- 39:41Speaker 4: the vote.
- 39:42Speaker 8: They've jammed me up a few times. This week, it's easy.
- 39:46Speaker 8: I'm going to go with the quarterback, man. The guy
- 39:48Speaker 8: we're going to depend on most Most of the time, well,
- 39:51Speaker 8: all the time this year. Trevor Lawrence, you guys, you
- 39:54Speaker 8: heard the numbers. What was the final? 18-23, 245, four touchdowns.
- 40:00Speaker 8: He set a new QBR, for anybody that pays attention
- 40:03Speaker 8: to that, of 150.6, I believe.
- 40:06Speaker 3: But all in all, he protected the football.
- 40:08Speaker 8: He got in and out of the huddle, made some
- 40:10Speaker 8: decisive throws, got everybody involved.
- 40:13Speaker 3: Just showed a real management out there. So I'm going
- 40:17Speaker 3: to go with Trevor.
- 40:19Speaker 7: I'm second in that for sure, Fred. I mean, the confidence,
- 40:22Speaker 7: the control, the throws he made, extending plays like he did.
- 40:25Speaker 7: I mean, you just felt the guy all day long.
- 40:27Speaker 7: I don't know how you can play much better. Again,
- 40:30Speaker 7: you mentioned penalties earlier. We only had four.
- 40:32Speaker 5: A year ago that was an issue. They had 11.
- 40:35Speaker 7: So the command of the offense, the control of the offense,
- 40:37Speaker 7: the rhythm of the offense, well done, excellent game, player
- 40:40Speaker 7: of the week.
- 40:41Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, come on. I'm not crazy. I'm going
- 40:43Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence here as well.
- 40:45Speaker 4: There were other guys who had exemplary games today, but
- 40:48Speaker 4: we've been asking for Trevor Lawrence to start a season
- 40:51Speaker 4: like this, right? To start games like this and to
- 40:54Speaker 4: have him come out and pick up right where this
- 40:57Speaker 4: offense left off at the end of the last regular season, Duff.
- 41:00Speaker 4: I thought was spectacular. Gave you everything you wanted. He
- 41:03Speaker 4: could have named his number today. He could have thrown
- 41:05Speaker 4: for 450 yards today if the Jags kept their foot
- 41:07Speaker 4: on the pedal.
- 41:08Speaker 2: It's unanimous. I'll go with it as well. With a
- 41:11Speaker 2: nod of the cap towards Ventrell Miller for his nine
- 41:14Speaker 2: tackle force fumble performance sack. He was brilliant in his
- 41:20Speaker 2: first start as the Jaguars weak side linebacker. So we'll go.
- 41:26Speaker 2: Does he get anything? Does Trevor Lawrence get anything? He
- 41:27Speaker 2: gets our recognition and a hearty handshake if we see.
- 41:30Speaker 3: Him in the hallway. You know, they used to get
- 41:31Speaker 3: watches back in the day.
- 41:32Speaker 2: They did?
- 41:33Speaker 3: Yeah. I never knew. Somebody just showed up to my
- 41:37Speaker 3: locker with a watch. And I'd be like, okay. And
- 41:40Speaker 3: then I would just put it away. And then they
- 41:42Speaker 3: gave me another watch. I'm like, okay.
- 41:44Speaker 2: Pretty soon you had five or six of them there.
- 41:46Speaker 3: So why y'all keep giving me these watches? I'm like,
- 41:48Speaker 3: you've got to play the game. I'm like, oh, that's cool.
- 41:51Speaker 11: All right.
- 41:51Speaker 8: I probably got, I don't know. I still got some
- 41:54Speaker 8: of those watches. I should have gave them all the
- 41:56Speaker 8: way a long time ago.
- 41:56Speaker 2: You should bring one in, and we'll do, like, player
- 41:58Speaker 2: of the month. No, and they can have the watch
- 42:01Speaker 2: for a week, and then they've got to give it
- 42:03Speaker 2: up the next week.
- 42:03Speaker 3: I don't even know if they work.
- 42:05Speaker 7: Fred, when I was defending you with the Bengals, you
- 42:07Speaker 7: should have given me the watch because, again, we couldn't
- 42:09Speaker 7: stop you, and that's why you won the doggone thing.
- 42:11Speaker 3: I wish I would have known you back then. I
- 42:14Speaker 3: would have gave it to you.
- 42:15Speaker 2: How about a quick look at the injury report presented
- 42:17Speaker 2: by UF Health, the official health care partner of the
- 42:19Speaker 2: Jacksonville Jaguars. Really, the one that we saw was Brian
- 42:23Speaker 2: Thomas Jr., who left the game, but he came back
- 42:25Speaker 2: into the game. There could be some bumps and bruises
- 42:28Speaker 2: and scrapes along the way, but a lot of starters
- 42:29Speaker 2: were out in the third quarter, leading to backups being
- 42:32Speaker 2: in in the fourth quarter. No one really.
- 42:35Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 42:35Speaker 2: Stands out as being injured. They get out of this
- 42:37Speaker 2: game healthy. Which is great, right?
- 42:38Speaker 4: I mean, Colvin Landon played, and this is probably the
- 42:41Speaker 4: best-case scenario. You get to start Colvin Landon, let him
- 42:43Speaker 4: play a half, then get him out of there, not
- 42:45Speaker 4: overtax him because he hasn't had that kind of training camp, Fred. And, yeah,
- 42:50Speaker 4: I mean, look, knock on wood, even LaQuint Allen was active,
- 42:52Speaker 4: which really surprised me because he had Amir Abdullah up
- 42:56Speaker 4: and playing in the game.
- 42:57Speaker 2: So Jags are... Moving in the right direction, it looks like,
- 43:00Speaker 2: on that front.
- 43:00Speaker 3: Yeah, you take that as a blessing. It's a win-win.
- 43:03Speaker 3: I mean, you protect your starters.
- 43:04Speaker 8: You give them an opportunity to get out, and they
- 43:07Speaker 8: get to get their legs up onto them a little
- 43:09Speaker 8: bit longer. Actually, an entire quarter almost. But more importantly,
- 43:13Speaker 8: you got an opportunity to see guys who usually don't
- 43:16Speaker 8: play as often. They got a chance to really get
- 43:19Speaker 8: some reps. So it's a plus-plus win-win for the team.
- 43:23Speaker 11: All right, 34-10.
- 43:25Speaker 2: Jaguars beat the Cleveland Browns today. That is your UF
- 43:28Speaker 2: Health Injury Report brought to you by UF Health, the

- 44:17Speaker 4: come back to get this team no question about it
- 44:19Speaker 4: but i want to focus in on one simple decision
- 44:22Speaker 4: that liam cohen made on special teams today or opting
- 44:25Speaker 4: to send his special teams out there. It was fourth down,
- 44:28Speaker 4: and the guys on the broadcast are like, oh, Liam's
- 44:29Speaker 4: going to go for this. He's going to go for this.
- 44:31Speaker 4: Liam Cohen, I think, realized, look, if we don't mess
- 44:34Speaker 4: this game up.
- 44:35Speaker 15: Right.
- 44:36Speaker 2: The Browns have no chance to beat us today.
- 44:38Speaker 4: We go up 17. The game is basically over right there. Plus,
- 44:42Speaker 4: the fact that this looked like a game where you're
- 44:44Speaker 4: going to be going up and down, up and down,
- 44:46Speaker 4: up and down.
- 44:46Speaker 2: Okay, great.
- 44:47Speaker 4: How many practice extra points does Cam Little need? So
- 44:50Speaker 4: let's put him out there and get him his first
- 44:54Speaker 4: sweat of the season, so to speak. I thought it
- 44:56Speaker 4: was a small decision, but at the time Liam Cohen
- 44:58Speaker 4: made it, I thought it was one that was the
- 45:01Speaker 4: smart play to kind of assure yourself that working margin
- 45:04Speaker 4: of 17 points.
- 45:05Speaker 2: Duff, you've worked for a lot of guys. Your thoughts
- 45:07Speaker 2: on that decision?
- 45:08Speaker 5: I'm right with that.
- 45:09Speaker 7: The series before he elected to kick the field goal, he, again,
- 45:14Speaker 7: exposes Wildcat, C-Rod's the quarterback.
- 45:16Speaker 5: They run that.
- 45:17Speaker 7: They had a jet sweep to Travis Hunter. They ran
- 45:19Speaker 7: a wide receiver screen to him. I mean, he had
- 45:23Speaker 7: a plan right now that he wanted to get things
- 45:24Speaker 7: exposed in terms of their offense, showing the opponent's defense
- 45:28Speaker 7: as time goes on, and he wanted to get the kicking.
- 45:30Speaker 5: Game off there. off the snide, if you will, in
- 45:32Speaker 5: terms of kicking the field goal.
- 45:33Speaker 7: So I like the way, the methodical way he was
- 45:36Speaker 7: thinking and how his input in plays and also teams.
- 45:40Speaker 3: Simply for me, it's just great decision.
- 45:42Speaker 8: Old school style type football, not so aggressive, but also
- 45:47Speaker 8: just establishing like just a positive, a positive rhythm, you know,
- 45:51Speaker 8: with the team, just taking it as it comes and
- 45:55Speaker 8: not forcing anything. So I think to start the season off,
- 45:58Speaker 8: we saw some maturation, not necessarily maturation as a head coach,
- 46:03Speaker 8: because you call it, you make a decision, you live
- 46:05Speaker 8: with it. And that's what I do love most about Liam,
- 46:08Speaker 8: the decisions he made a year ago. He lived with it,
- 46:11Speaker 8: regardless of the outcome. You have to be willing to
- 46:14Speaker 8: take that. But a great decision, Mike. Good job pointing
- 46:17Speaker 8: that out. Small things. Hopefully it'll add up and lead
- 46:20Speaker 8: to some bigger things as the season progresses.
- 46:23Speaker 5: And dovetailing that, Coach kept talking about physicality.
- 46:26Speaker 7: We won the line of scrimmage, a critical component going
- 46:29Speaker 7: into the game, but you ran the ball like we
- 46:31Speaker 7: did over 126 yards.
- 46:32Speaker 5: The defense, I'm telling you, Hamilton, Dickerson.
- 46:35Speaker 7: Dickerson had a great quarterback hit in the second half
- 46:38Speaker 7: in terms of his penetration at the line, but those guys,
- 46:42Speaker 7: that's why Vantrell, that's why Foye had the kind of
- 46:44Speaker 7: games they were. Devon Hamilton and Dickerson and Armstead, Again,
- 46:48Speaker 7: dominant inside in terms of line of scrimmage.
- 46:50Speaker 2: Before we get out of here, we really have not
- 46:52Speaker 2: given the offensive line probably as much credit as they deserve.
- 46:57Speaker 2: It was a reshuffled offensive line. Anton Harrison goes to
- 47:00Speaker 2: left tackle. You put the rookie Emmanuel Pregnon in, and
- 47:03Speaker 2: he's the starting left guard. Hainsey's the only guy who
- 47:06Speaker 2: was in the same spot he was last year. On
- 47:08Speaker 2: the right side, Ezra Cleveland steps over there for... The
- 47:11Speaker 2: Panthers practice, I think. And he had a great practice
- 47:14Speaker 2: in August. And you could see maybe he fit better
- 47:16Speaker 2: on the right side, Fred. And then Cole Van Landen,
- 47:18Speaker 2: we talked a little bit about Cole getting into the lineup,
- 47:20Speaker 2: played enough for you to realize he's all right.
- 47:24Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean.
- 47:25Speaker 2: The protection was sensational.
- 47:26Speaker 8: It was. Prior to the game, I had to go back.
- 47:29Speaker 8: Last year, I knew they had multiple games in which
- 47:31Speaker 8: they didn't allow sacks. It ended up being five sacks.
- 47:34Speaker 8: tied for the NFL League in that department. But when
- 47:38Speaker 8: you look at this line, I like to think of
- 47:41Speaker 8: them as the Jacksonville Five, right?
- 47:44Speaker 2: The Jackson Five is what you're going with? Jacksonville Five, yeah.
- 47:47Speaker 9: I like that.
- 47:47Speaker 8: I don't think they did more shuffling than the Jackson Five.
- 47:51Speaker 2: Hats off to you, my friend.
- 47:52Speaker 3: Whatever.
- 47:53Speaker 8: Just to think about Anton Harrison versus Jared Vers, 24,
- 47:59Speaker 8: defensive rookie of the player of the year, right? Just
- 48:02Speaker 8: an amazing job, wore him out. They gave Trevor so
- 48:06Speaker 8: much time today that helped the offense pass game just
- 48:10Speaker 8: be explosive. So they can continue to play that way
- 48:13Speaker 8: as they did a year ago. We'll continue to see
- 48:15Speaker 8: Trevor excel.
- 48:16Speaker 5: I mean, that's the strength.
- 48:18Speaker 7: Just what you said, the strength of Cleveland's team on
- 48:21Speaker 7: the defense was defensive line, the front seven.
- 48:23Speaker 5: And they controlled it pass-wise and run-wise. Well done, just
- 48:27Speaker 5: the way you said.
- 48:27Speaker 2: Jared Verst had one tackle. in the middle of the
- 48:30Speaker 2: third quarter. Yeah, we're talking to each other. Have we
- 48:32Speaker 2: heard his name yet? No, we hadn't at that point.
- 48:33Speaker 2: He finished with four, but he did nothing when the
- 48:38Speaker 2: game was in doubt.
- 48:39Speaker 8: You know who had a big day today, played with
- 48:41Speaker 8: a chip on his shoulder? Mason Graham. He had more
- 48:44Speaker 8: sacks today than he did all of last year.
- 48:47Speaker 2: I think he tied. I think he had one last year.
- 48:49Speaker 3: Last year he had half a sack.
- 48:50Speaker 2: Oh, did he have a half? I thought he had
- 48:52Speaker 2: a full last year.
- 48:53Speaker 3: Yeah, just messing around. No, I mean.
- 48:55Speaker 2: Oh, I'm sure he wants to.
- 48:57Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 48:57Speaker 2: Here's the thing.
- 48:58Speaker 4: Everyone in Cleveland, Fred thinks that they've snookered the Jags
- 49:02Speaker 4: on these trades with the last couple of years. And
- 49:04Speaker 4: you can, I'll give him the Tyson Campbell versus Newsome deal,
- 49:09Speaker 4: but how can you judge what's going to come out
- 49:11Speaker 4: of the Travis Hunter deal? And, you know, collectively all
- 49:14Speaker 4: those guys that Travis Hunter, Basil Tootin, rayon lane that
- 49:18Speaker 4: they got in that deal uh they've now won 14
- 49:21Speaker 4: regular season.
- 49:22Speaker 2: Games out of 18 since that trade went down.
- 49:24Speaker 8: You make the decision you live with it and you
- 49:26Speaker 8: move forward regardless of what happens no looking backwards and
- 49:29Speaker 8: you won't be able to figure out if that was
- 49:32Speaker 8: a good or bad trade for years down the road
- 49:36Speaker 8: at least almost in there 10 years so i mean
- 49:39Speaker 8: We got Travis, great player, and he's going to be
- 49:41Speaker 8: an All-Pro sooner than later.
- 49:43Speaker 2: All right, let's take our final break. When we come back,
- 49:44Speaker 2: final thoughts. Look forward to next week in the Jags
- 49:47Speaker 2: game in Denver. We'll return after this on the Jaguars
- 49:50Speaker 2: Radio Network. All right, back to wrap things up on
- 49:56Speaker 2: the postgame show. For all of you on the Jaguars
- 49:59Speaker 2: radio network, for those of you local listening to 1010XL
- 50:02Speaker 2: and 92.5 FM in Jacksonville, hold on. We've got a
- 50:05Speaker 2: big scoreboard show for you. A couple of nuggets today.
- 50:07Speaker 2: The Jaguars have scored at least 30 points in five
- 50:11Speaker 2: straight home games. The longest streak in franchise history. This
- 50:16Speaker 2: is the 18th straight game that Jacksonville's defense has not
- 50:18Speaker 2: allowed a 100-yard rusher. It's the second longest active streak
- 50:22Speaker 2: in the NFL to the Seahawks, who have 27, and
- 50:26Speaker 2: tied for the team's longest streak of all time, going
- 50:28Speaker 2: back to 1997 and 98. Fred, we talked about the
- 50:32Speaker 2: 99 win, 41-3 over the San Francisco 49ers. 34 points,
- 50:36Speaker 2: second most ever scored in a season opener. And here's one.
- 50:40Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence's 150.6 passer rating, the second highest mark of
- 50:44Speaker 2: any Jaguars quarterback, had in a game all time. David
- 50:48Speaker 2: Garrard had a 157.8 rating against Dallas when he threw
- 50:52Speaker 2: three touchdowns to Mercedes Lewis back in 2010. That's going
- 50:55Speaker 2: to get Steve Matthews. Remember that starting against the Giants?
- 50:58Speaker 2: I do. Week two of 1997. Absolutely, I do. All right,
- 51:04Speaker 2: final thoughts, what you're looking forward to next week. Mark Duffner.
- 51:07Speaker 7: I'm looking for them to carry this momentum and consistency
- 51:10Speaker 7: into this game. They came out of training camp hot,
- 51:13Speaker 7: played so well in the joint against Tampa Bay and
- 51:15Speaker 7: then the preseason game against Tampa Bay. They brought the physicality.
- 51:18Speaker 7: They brought the execution into this game. So I look
- 51:21Speaker 7: for them to consistently show that offensively, defensively, and special
- 51:24Speaker 7: teams as we go into Denver.
- 51:26Speaker 2: Across the table, Fred.
- 51:27Speaker 8: Well, I think this will be the week we get
- 51:29Speaker 8: an opportunity to see them really just hand the ball off.
- 51:32Speaker 8: You don't want to go to Denver with that type
- 51:34Speaker 8: of pass rush scheme that they have led by Nick Benito.
- 51:38Speaker 8: You want to protect Trevor that way, as Liam said
- 51:41Speaker 8: in his message.
- 51:44Speaker 3: They need to find a way to be balanced.
- 51:46Speaker 8: And as we were just talking about Basial 2 in
- 51:48Speaker 8: the run game, I really think they get an opportunity.
- 51:51Speaker 3: To showcase what Basial is all about.
- 51:53Speaker 8: I think they do. certainly will have a better output.
- 51:57Speaker 8: They had a great output in the run game this week.
- 51:59Speaker 8: Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that. But I
- 52:01Speaker 8: think they take it to the next step and really
- 52:04Speaker 8: pound the way at Denver's front.
- 52:06Speaker 4: I'm looking for a better test. I don't know how
- 52:09Speaker 4: good this team is because I don't think Cleveland's very good,
- 52:11Speaker 4: and Jacksonville did what you're supposed to with a team
- 52:14Speaker 4: that's below you in terms of talent and execution and
- 52:18Speaker 4: all that stuff. Clearly Denver's better. Jacksonville went in there,
- 52:21Speaker 4: won by 14 last year. I don't fear the Denver Broncos.
- 52:24Speaker 4: I think Liam Cohen's got plenty of things to get
- 52:26Speaker 4: on his team about this week, particularly with that special.
- 52:28Speaker 2: Teams coverage stuff. But, Fred, I agree with you, man.
- 52:31Speaker 2: Run the ball, and we'll.
- 52:32Speaker 4: Have a much better test for the offensive line.
- 52:34Speaker 2: All right, that'll do it for Fred Taylor, for Mark Duffner,
- 52:37Speaker 2: for Mike Dempsey, and our entire broadcast crew. This is
- 52:40Speaker 2: Brian Sessions saying goodnight. The final score from Jacksonville, 34-10,
- 52:43Speaker 2: the Jaguars win on the Jaguars Radio Network.
