0:27
Speaker 2: at the start of the regular season week one for
0:30
Speaker 2: the Jaguars prepared to go to Indianapolis to face the Colts.
0:33
Speaker 2: We'll hear from Doug Peterson in the studio again. We've
0:36
Speaker 2: got plenty of sound coming up from this week from
0:39
Speaker 2: the Jaguars head coach. We'll hear from Travis Etn Junior
0:41
Speaker 2: as well. Conversation I had with the Jags running back
0:44
Speaker 2: earlier this week and it's year three in the league,
0:47
Speaker 2: year two on the field for him, and what adjustments
0:51
Speaker 2: has he made moving into this offense now for a
0:55
Speaker 2: second year. And I mean he went over eleven hundred yards.
0:57
Speaker 2: We'll see how much more he can and get coming
1:00
Speaker 2: up Jeff Logman, Good afternoon, JP. I'm doing good. I'm
1:04
Speaker 2: doing good. Are you tall? Did you I mean, I
1:07
Speaker 2: get the feeling that you're pulling a Pete Prisco on me.
1:11
Speaker 2: How so, Uh, you look taller in the chair. Do
1:14
Speaker 2: you have your chair higher for a reason? Well, no,
1:16
Speaker 2: I mean I've been sitting here for an hour on
1:18
Speaker 2: a local show here in Jacksonville on you, and you
1:20
Speaker 2: just now notice. I don't know, I noticed, but I
1:22
Speaker 2: didn't bring it up until now I noticed that you
1:26
Speaker 2: just brought it up. I'm just curious, did do you
1:29
Speaker 2: have the Pete Prisco? Do you think I'm lifting? Is
1:32
Speaker 2: that what you think? You think there's extra I'm wondering.
1:36
Speaker 2: I don't think so. It's just as tall as yours.
1:39
Speaker 2: You have your seat higher though, No, I mean I
1:43
Speaker 2: have to be able to get to the table. That's
1:44
Speaker 2: what that's all. This is. It's not like I'm you know,
1:47
Speaker 2: all the way to the top. It's not like the
1:49
Speaker 2: old David Letterman trick where you think I think you're
1:51
Speaker 2: pulling a David Letterman used to have his chair really
1:53
Speaker 2: high and the guest chair was like, I think you are.
1:58
Speaker 2: I don't think so, it is. My thought? Is it working?
2:02
Speaker 2: You're definitely higher than that? All right? That's it? Hey,
2:05
Speaker 2: second week of training camp let's get serious now it's
2:08
Speaker 2: football here. What do you think so far? Two days
2:11
Speaker 2: of pads logs, two days of pads so far they
2:15
Speaker 2: didn't work out in pads. Today they'll do it again.
2:19
Speaker 2: I can't reach my microphone Monday. That's fantastic, Sorry about
2:23
Speaker 2: that all right. So what's the biggest standout from the
2:27
Speaker 2: padded days so far for you? What has stood out? Yeah, well,
2:33
Speaker 2: the competition and the improved roster. You see, you see
2:39
Speaker 2: a lot of positions that have become more competitive because
2:42
Speaker 2: the depth is better. If you go back and you
2:45
Speaker 2: look at this football team a couple of years ago,
2:48
Speaker 2: from a quality of depth or talent level standpoint, it
2:53
Speaker 2: wasn't very good. It's better now. It's deeper now, it's
2:58
Speaker 2: more talented now, and I think that's the thing that
3:01
Speaker 2: stands out the most. Now. There are some position groups
3:04
Speaker 2: that you sit there and you go, Okay, it's not
3:08
Speaker 2: glaring that it's that much better now, but you hope
3:13
Speaker 2: that through some competition and development that they get better.
3:18
Speaker 2: But offensively, when you look at every position group that
3:21
Speaker 2: there is on offense, I would say that every group
3:24
Speaker 2: is better. Okay, running backs, the addition of tank Deaneris Johnson,
3:29
Speaker 2: the wide receiving group. Calvin Ridley's added to it. Offensive line, Okay,
3:35
Speaker 2: you added a first round draft pick. You added Josh
3:37
Speaker 2: Wellson free agency tight end, you added a draft pick
3:41
Speaker 2: out of Penn State, and Brenton Strange, who I think
3:43
Speaker 2: is really good. Prince is developing, Okay, just having a
3:47
Speaker 2: fantastic beginning of camp. So I mean that covers the
3:51
Speaker 2: quarterback room. Trevor Lawrence here two in the system. You're good. Okay, Defense, okay,
3:57
Speaker 2: look at the safety group better. The addition of Johnson
4:01
Speaker 2: to that group. I mean this is this might be
4:03
Speaker 2: one of the deepest position groups that there is. Cornerback.
4:06
Speaker 2: You add a lot of numbers, okay, this this year
4:09
Speaker 2: in the draft and then last year in the draft.
4:12
Speaker 2: That's a group that you hope that out of the numbers, okay,
4:16
Speaker 2: that you've added to it, that somebody develops a lot
4:20
Speaker 2: of later round draft pick exactly, because there's a couple
4:22
Speaker 2: of ways that you can address maybe what is a
4:26
Speaker 2: perceived weakness on your football team. One way is to
4:28
Speaker 2: put a lot of draft equity into it. And there's
4:30
Speaker 2: a lot of different ways to put draft equity into it.
4:32
Speaker 2: The higher the pick that's higher equity right in the draft.
4:35
Speaker 2: Another way is is to do it with multiple picks,
4:39
Speaker 2: maybe in later rounds. And that's what Hale, Trent Balkey
4:42
Speaker 2: and his staff and Doug have addressed that position group.
4:45
Speaker 2: They added a couple of late round picks last year
4:48
Speaker 2: mid and a late round pick this year with that group.
4:50
Speaker 2: And can they get better? That's going to be something
4:53
Speaker 2: that Bears watching. Defensive tackle, did they really add anything
4:56
Speaker 2: Lacey they added in the draft, not really a pass rusher.
5:01
Speaker 2: They didn't really add an accomplished guy in free agency
5:06
Speaker 2: anywhere for the most part on defense. So that's something
5:09
Speaker 2: that Bears watching. Can they get better from within? Can
5:12
Speaker 2: they develop and guys that they've already had in the
5:14
Speaker 2: lineup like Devin Lloyd and Trayvon Walker? Can they get
5:18
Speaker 2: better since some of these young guys at the corner
5:21
Speaker 2: position developed. So, I mean, that's the one thing that
5:23
Speaker 2: stands out this roster overall and is much better. And
5:28
Speaker 2: then in year two of the system. Things are faster
5:31
Speaker 2: now at this point in training camp than compared to
5:34
Speaker 2: last year. I miss the mark of a good roster
5:38
Speaker 2: right if you don't turn over any starting gigs, really
5:40
Speaker 2: on both sides of the ball, at least on paper.
5:42
Speaker 2: Right now, two weeks in the camp, most of those
5:45
Speaker 2: starting gigs are filled, right, You're just kind of working
5:48
Speaker 2: on depth, yes and no. Okay, you always sit there
5:53
Speaker 2: and go, okay, everything's available because I mean, the reality
5:57
Speaker 2: is JP is if somebody comes along and is better
5:59
Speaker 2: than starter, they're gonna be starting. I mean, that's just
6:03
Speaker 2: the way it is. Okay, it's survival of the best
6:06
Speaker 2: in the National Football League. But is it likely to
6:11
Speaker 2: happen with some guys and some guys at certain positions.
6:14
Speaker 2: Probably not. But there's always roles that can be carved out,
6:18
Speaker 2: like ets a starter, Okay, but if Bigsby continues to
6:23
Speaker 2: show some of the things that we're seeing in camp,
6:27
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a shared role. Okay. If Bigsby doesn't show,
6:31
Speaker 2: then Etn is gonna be more of the central figure
6:34
Speaker 2: and he's gonna get majority of the snaps at tight
6:37
Speaker 2: end Breton Strange his development, Okay. If all a sudden
6:40
Speaker 2: he starts doing really good, Okay, then Feral reps will
6:45
Speaker 2: get limited and Prince's reps may get limited because if
6:51
Speaker 2: they're gonna go to two tight end sets, you know,
6:53
Speaker 2: and Brenton strains is really good. Okay, then he's gonna
6:56
Speaker 2: carve out a role for himself. So I mean, it's
6:58
Speaker 2: just that's talent works. I mean, that's why you have
7:00
Speaker 2: the one thing about training camp JP that I think
7:02
Speaker 2: a lot of people go into and they have a
7:06
Speaker 2: lot of assumptions. And Belichick was the guy that really
7:11
Speaker 2: kind of hammered this home every year and a lot
7:13
Speaker 2: of people looked at it. As Belichick coach speak was
7:17
Speaker 2: that every year is different and you have to earn
7:19
Speaker 2: it every year. You can't build upon last year. Last
7:22
Speaker 2: year is over. And when he used to always say that,
7:25
Speaker 2: people would, ah, that's just Belichick being boring, and he
7:29
Speaker 2: doesn't want to give us a sound bite. It's the truth.
7:33
Speaker 2: It's the truth. And Doug Peterson said so much, it's
7:36
Speaker 2: the same thing to his team. And then, hey, we
7:40
Speaker 2: have to put the work in we did last year,
7:42
Speaker 2: have to do it this year. This facility that we have,
7:45
Speaker 2: this great, brand new facility, it's not gonna help. It's
7:48
Speaker 2: not gonna win us any games. We still have to
7:51
Speaker 2: put in the hard work. Up next, Doug Peterson will
7:55
Speaker 2: explain the communication with the left tackles in this team
7:58
Speaker 2: so far in the offseason, Cam Robinson and Walker Little,
8:01
Speaker 2: we are off and running. This is the Doug Peterson
8:04
Speaker 2: Show on the Jaguars Radio Network.
8:13
Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right now.
8:19
Speaker 3: We communicated with both guys quite honestly. Cam did a
8:23
Speaker 3: great job this offseason of communicating with us. You know,
8:25
Speaker 3: when we found out the news and everything, and he
8:28
Speaker 3: was upfront with everything, and then we were honest back
8:30
Speaker 3: with him and said, listen, this is the plan. And
8:34
Speaker 3: you know, we spoke with Walker the same way, and
8:38
Speaker 3: so you nip a lot of things by being open
8:41
Speaker 3: and honest and having those conversations even though they might
8:45
Speaker 3: be difficult for a player to listen to this reality
8:49
Speaker 3: and that's where we are. So I think that's the
8:51
Speaker 3: biggest thing is just having that open communication.
8:53
Speaker 2: That's Doug Peterson, of course, Jaguar's head coach, earlier this
8:56
Speaker 2: week on the communication with both left tackles, Cam Robinson
9:01
Speaker 2: and Walker Little. Welcome back. It is the Doug Peterson
9:04
Speaker 2: Show from the Hundai Studios at the Miller Electric Center
9:07
Speaker 2: in downtown Jacksonville, JP, Shadwick, Jeff Logman. We'll have head
9:10
Speaker 2: coach Doug Peterson with us again in studio week one
9:14
Speaker 2: before the Jaguars Colts matchup, And yeah, communications key in
9:19
Speaker 2: any business, any aspect of life, certainly when it comes
9:23
Speaker 2: to putting together a situation like this on the offensive line,
9:27
Speaker 2: Cam out for four weeks. Walker Little a guy who's
9:30
Speaker 2: been around here for now a couple of years and
9:33
Speaker 2: kind of waiting in the wings. He did a great job.
9:35
Speaker 2: At the end of last season when Cam was banged
9:37
Speaker 2: up with an mcl injury, he told me, so, all right,
9:42
Speaker 2: this is what it is, guys, Cam, you're out, Walker's
9:45
Speaker 2: got to play. We'll reevaluate when it's time. Well, and
9:48
Speaker 2: and I think they're they're doing a good job as
9:52
Speaker 2: far as getting Walker a little ready for the first
9:55
Speaker 2: four weeks. And once you get a lot of people
10:00
Speaker 2: are asking the question of being I'm sure they're asking
10:02
Speaker 2: questions of you, JP, And the question is natural what
10:07
Speaker 2: happens when Cam comes back? And the answer is not clear.
10:13
Speaker 2: The answer is simply this. You don't know until you
10:17
Speaker 2: see how well Walker Little's doing it left tackle and
10:21
Speaker 2: how well the team is doing. Because if you try
10:25
Speaker 2: to sit here and predict what's gonna happen, you'll be
10:27
Speaker 2: wrong because you don't know where everything's gonna be. A
10:32
Speaker 2: lot of life can happen between now and then, and
10:34
Speaker 2: where's cam at? Okay, how soon can he be ready?
10:39
Speaker 2: Because you got to remember something. When he has the
10:41
Speaker 2: suspension for four weeks, it's not like he's practicing during
10:45
Speaker 2: the week and then not just playing in the games.
10:49
Speaker 2: He's not even in the building for four weeks, which,
10:53
Speaker 2: by the way, I think is I'm trying to I'm
10:56
Speaker 2: gonna use a good word here. I don't think it's
10:58
Speaker 2: very smart by the league. I was going to use
11:01
Speaker 2: a word, a phrase A and ended with an e,
11:06
Speaker 2: not a bad one. I kind of look at it
11:08
Speaker 2: as it is because the best part of it is, Okay,
11:11
Speaker 2: nothing that you said it has nothing to do with that. Well,
11:14
Speaker 2: it's got the first part. No, it's not that has
11:16
Speaker 2: literally nothing. I interpret it as that, Well, you're wrong, Okay.
11:20
Speaker 2: I like to be wrong. Sometimes you're okay to be wrong.
11:22
Speaker 2: That's right. I don't mind being wrong anyway. But my
11:25
Speaker 2: point is is that there's a great it's it's first
11:29
Speaker 2: of all, they're doing a great job of making sure
11:31
Speaker 2: that what's important is the first week because they've got
11:34
Speaker 2: walker little out there now and they're what the reality is.
11:37
Speaker 2: You can't be worried about feelings. You're you're running a
11:39
Speaker 2: business here, you're running a football team trying to get
11:41
Speaker 2: ready for week one. But they're still getting Cam reps
11:45
Speaker 2: in there with the ones, just to make sure that
11:47
Speaker 2: he keeps fresh. But then and then again, my point
11:49
Speaker 2: was that the first four weeks, Cam's not in the building,
11:51
Speaker 2: he's not practicing. Can he simulate and and do things
11:55
Speaker 2: on his own two to where he comes back in
11:59
Speaker 2: week five and he's ready to go. That's hard to do,
12:02
Speaker 2: I mean really hard to do. So you got to
12:05
Speaker 2: kind of see where Walker Little's at. Then you got
12:07
Speaker 2: to see where Cam is at. You want to see
12:09
Speaker 2: where the team is at, where the offense is at,
12:11
Speaker 2: and then you figure it out and you adjust and
12:14
Speaker 2: go from there. We'll see what happens and happens. The
12:18
Speaker 2: great thing about Doug is that open lines of communication
12:23
Speaker 2: with Doug and the players is always there.
12:26
Speaker 4: Uh.
12:27
Speaker 2: That was never Tom Coughlin's strong suit. You know, he's
12:31
Speaker 2: a Hall of Fame coach and I hope he gets
12:33
Speaker 2: in this year. But that was that was not a
12:37
Speaker 2: little different era, and it was a one way conversation
12:41
Speaker 2: that's my point. One way street. Yeah, he was, but
12:46
Speaker 2: it was sometimes JP, it wasn't even a one way conversation.
12:51
Speaker 2: Sometimes it was you just found out and that's just
12:54
Speaker 2: the way it was. But that's okay. But I appreciate
13:00
Speaker 2: how Doug does things and how he's I don't want to,
13:04
Speaker 2: I don't want to say he's a player's coach, but
13:07
Speaker 2: the players love him and that's the important thing, and
13:10
Speaker 2: they respect him. Quick thought on this though, we're talking
13:13
Speaker 2: about players possibly sliding into guard if Ben Bartch is
13:17
Speaker 2: not playing, you know, still ding whatever's going on at
13:20
Speaker 2: the left guard spot. Right, it's not Madden. You can't
13:24
Speaker 2: just plug a guy in to play left guard who's
13:26
Speaker 2: played tackle unless he's ready for it.
13:29
Speaker 3: Right.
13:30
Speaker 2: It's uh. I'm glad you brought that up because somebody
13:32
Speaker 2: else pose that question to me, and maybe it was you,
13:36
Speaker 2: I don't remember, but they said, well, when Cam comes back,
13:41
Speaker 2: isn't getting the best five on the field putting Walker
13:44
Speaker 2: a little at guard? And my answer to that was,
13:49
Speaker 2: putting Walker a little at guard doesn't mean that that's
13:51
Speaker 2: the best five starters. It means that might be your
13:56
Speaker 2: best five starting off. That might set me rephrase that
14:00
Speaker 2: that might be your best five offensive lineman. It doesn't
14:04
Speaker 2: mean it's your best starting five because Walker Little may
14:08
Speaker 2: not play left guard as well as Tyler Shatley Cook.
14:13
Speaker 2: So you have to have the best left guard, okay,
14:16
Speaker 2: you got to have the best left tackle, the best
14:19
Speaker 2: center okay, the best right guard, and the best right tackle.
14:23
Speaker 2: You know, for example, if you had two Cam Robinson's
14:29
Speaker 2: and two Walker Little's and an Anton Harrison, Okay, five guys, right?
14:34
Speaker 2: Do you play all five of those guys? Can somebody snap?
14:39
Speaker 2: Who's snapping them all? Can they play guard?
14:41
Speaker 4: No?
14:41
Speaker 2: I mean, so you get my point. Yeah. Jaggs fans

14:58
Speaker 2: When we come back, it's on the Doug Peterson Show
15:01
Speaker 2: on Jaguars Radio.
15:12
Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right now.
15:17
Speaker 3: Where I get excited is when we're in team drills
15:20
Speaker 3: and they're working their games, their combinations, their stunts, their pressures.
15:24
Speaker 3: That's where I get to see the pass rush. You know,
15:28
Speaker 3: it's good to see athleticism. It's good to see movement
15:30
Speaker 3: skills get off. It's good to see all of that
15:33
Speaker 3: you know in one on ones, but it's sometimes it's
15:35
Speaker 3: a little bit unfair one way or the other.
15:39
Speaker 2: Doug Peterson earlier this week, Welcome back to the Doug
15:41
Speaker 2: Peterson Show on the Jaguars Radio Network JP Shadwick with
15:44
Speaker 2: Jeff Logeman, Head coach. Doug Peterson will be in studio
15:47
Speaker 2: with us again week one of the regular season. We'll
15:50
Speaker 2: happen back. We're hearing from him from earlier in the
15:53
Speaker 2: week and some media availabilities, the full availability on Jaguars
15:57
Speaker 2: dot com. That brings us to the pass rush and
16:00
Speaker 2: that's been a focus of a lot of pundits analysts
16:04
Speaker 2: throughout this offseason. How can the Jaguars improve some of
16:08
Speaker 2: those numbers? Sack numbers mainly, and a lot of I
16:12
Speaker 2: guess pressures are not an official NFL stat quarterback hits
16:18
Speaker 2: are the Jaguars. Josh Allen at least was among sites
16:24
Speaker 2: that rank pressures. He was up there in pressures, just
16:27
Speaker 2: couldn't finish it off top tens ish. So different sites
16:31
Speaker 2: ranked pressures different ways, right, I mean, and there's two
16:34
Speaker 2: places that have that stat PFF. There's one of them,
16:38
Speaker 2: and I can't remember the other one, but PFF is
16:40
Speaker 2: the one that we subscribe to. That's right. So the
16:43
Speaker 2: trick is turning those pressures into either sacks, quarterback hits,
16:50
Speaker 2: taking that next step as a defensis all not just
16:53
Speaker 2: Josh Allen, Treyvon Walker. Obviously, you can name any name
16:56
Speaker 2: of that defensive line you want. So far, there's been
17:01
Speaker 2: two days of padded practices and Doug Peterson there and
17:03
Speaker 2: that clip just talked about it. Hey, the one on
17:05
Speaker 2: one stuff sometimes, you know, the first day in you're
17:09
Speaker 2: just trying to set a tempo and then maybe you're
17:11
Speaker 2: gonna build on that as it goes into teamwork. How
17:14
Speaker 2: real is that? You know, what have you seen from
17:17
Speaker 2: the pass rush so far? And if it's not great
17:21
Speaker 2: so far, is it too early to freak out? Okay, well,
17:24
Speaker 2: let me let me start with just disagreeing with Doug
17:27
Speaker 2: a little bit and that I think this is an
17:30
Speaker 2: advantage for the defensive line, where he was saying that
17:33
Speaker 2: it can be an advantage for the offensive line. I
17:36
Speaker 2: don't see that. Again. If you look at that drill,
17:40
Speaker 2: there's no chips, there's no help from another offensive lineman,
17:46
Speaker 2: you have an idea of what the cadence is gonna be.
17:49
Speaker 2: You don't have play action, you don't have to worry
17:51
Speaker 2: about the run, you don't have to worry about bootlegs.
17:54
Speaker 2: You know where the quarterback is going to be, so
17:55
Speaker 2: I need it's a big advantage, I think for a
17:58
Speaker 2: defensive lineman. But what we've seen is two padded practices. Okay,
18:04
Speaker 2: two padded practices means you've had two to one on
18:06
Speaker 2: one pass rush drills. The one thing that I remember
18:10
Speaker 2: very distinctly on the first, in the second and about
18:13
Speaker 2: the third or fourth days, and when you're in pads,
18:16
Speaker 2: you're still trying to get comfortable moving in all of
18:20
Speaker 2: this equipment, and you're tired, fatigued because you've had four
18:25
Speaker 2: or five days under your belt in this acclamation period,
18:28
Speaker 2: and even though it's an acclamation period, you're still fatigued.
18:31
Speaker 2: And then when you finally do put the pads on,
18:33
Speaker 2: now it's another adjustment, just trying to get your body
18:36
Speaker 2: to move and be quick and agile and sudden and
18:40
Speaker 2: figure out pass rush moves. So the first couple days
18:43
Speaker 2: are always a little slow to have success from a
18:48
Speaker 2: pass rusher standpoint, But I got to give credit where
18:52
Speaker 2: credit is due, Walker, little Cam Robinson, those guys at
18:57
Speaker 2: the tackle position, and then the other offensive lineman as well,
19:00
Speaker 2: they have been winning and they're doing a very good job.
19:04
Speaker 2: And so that's the hard thing about when you're in
19:07
Speaker 2: training camp is because you're saying one side wins, one
19:12
Speaker 2: side loses. Well, sometimes it's it's it's a win win,
19:16
Speaker 2: and sometimes it's, wow, this one did a little bit
19:18
Speaker 2: better today, this one didn't do quite as good, you know.
19:21
Speaker 2: So you always have a winner and a loser kind
19:22
Speaker 2: of sometimes in people's eyes, Well, isn't that like life? Yeah,
19:27
Speaker 2: well yeah, I mean to an extent, but sometimes in
19:30
Speaker 2: that particular drill, there's not a clear cut winner and
19:32
Speaker 2: a loser. Okay, stalemate, you know. And and here's the
19:35
Speaker 2: other thing. If you're beating an offensive lineman and that
19:39
Speaker 2: drill consistently, well maybe Trevor's gotten rid of the ball
19:44
Speaker 2: and you're not getting the sack anyway, you know. So
19:47
Speaker 2: that's the hard That's why you want to see more
19:49
Speaker 2: wins by the defense because there's other circumstances that prevent
19:54
Speaker 2: that player from having success as a pass rusher. So
19:58
Speaker 2: you want the defense to win more than the offense
20:01
Speaker 2: and that and it hasn't happened, so right now, advantage allfense,
20:05
Speaker 2: and you want to see more out of the defense,
20:08
Speaker 2: especially with that group that's over there doing pass rush.
20:12
Speaker 2: You know, what helps slow down a pass rush a
20:15
Speaker 2: strong running game. We'll hear from Travis Etn Junior coming
20:19
Speaker 2: up explaining some technique changes entering season number three. That's
20:23
Speaker 2: next on The Doug Peterson Show on the Jaguars Radio Network.
20:35
Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right now.
20:40
Speaker 3: Emphasize shoulder square, you know, anticipating where the hole could
20:46
Speaker 3: be and just trusting that. And he's done an outstanding job.
20:51
Speaker 3: He's bought into that, he sees it. We've been able
20:53
Speaker 3: to show it to him. He's working on that in
20:55
Speaker 3: training camp right now, and that's the next step for him. Listen,
20:58
Speaker 3: it was a rook year, you know, so there's a
21:01
Speaker 3: lot of things to you know, you just don't hand
21:04
Speaker 3: the guy a ball and let him go let him
21:06
Speaker 3: go run. I mean sometimes that happens, but but you know,
21:10
Speaker 3: there's there's that skill and ability to anticipate a whole
21:15
Speaker 3: you know, we always talk about you know, speed to
21:19
Speaker 3: or speed through the hole, not to the whole type thing.
21:21
Speaker 3: And he's really embraced that this this training camp and
21:26
Speaker 3: and that to me is the next step.
21:28
Speaker 2: For him, I said coach Doug Peterson on Travis Etn
21:32
Speaker 2: Junior and welcome back to the Doug Peterson Show on
21:34
Speaker 2: the Jaguars Radio Network. JP Shadwick, Jeff Logeman. I had
21:37
Speaker 2: a chance earlier this week to catch up with Travis
21:40
Speaker 2: Etn Junior. It's his third NFL season, his second on
21:44
Speaker 2: the field. Remember, his rookie year was wiped out in
21:46
Speaker 2: the preseason with a foot injury. He missed the entire year,
21:50
Speaker 2: came back last year with over eleven hundred yards, and
21:54
Speaker 2: Travis Etn is ready for much more this time around.
22:00
Speaker 4: Understanding what it felt like to be so close get
22:03
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl or just being the playoffs, just as
22:05
Speaker 4: a young team being there and just feeling that hunger.
22:07
Speaker 4: We just want to get there again, and we know
22:09
Speaker 4: that there's no substitution for hard work, and we know
22:11
Speaker 4: that to get there we have to days like this
22:13
Speaker 4: is going to help us prepare us forward, and so
22:15
Speaker 4: like that's why you see the intention, that's why you
22:17
Speaker 4: see everybody just going full speed and just doing things
22:20
Speaker 4: the right way, and I just want to help us.
22:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've heard a lot about the fast starts or
22:25
Speaker 2: lack thereof last season early in the season, right, you know,
22:29
Speaker 2: even later in the season, comeback wins and all that.
22:31
Speaker 2: But if this team starts faster early and games gets
22:35
Speaker 2: that lead going, then things can can turn out a
22:38
Speaker 2: whole lot better. How do you improve that? How do
22:40
Speaker 2: you improve fast starts? Does it start out here in
22:43
Speaker 2: some way?
22:44
Speaker 4: Yes, are most definitely, But I also think it just
22:45
Speaker 4: started with the familiarity of the playbook. Everybody everybody's second
22:49
Speaker 4: year in this scheme, so we know more. We know
22:52
Speaker 4: what to expect. We've done it millions of times. Now
22:55
Speaker 4: we're out there and we know what to do. We're
22:57
Speaker 4: not out there just playing in this game for the
22:59
Speaker 4: first time trying to get things on tape.
23:00
Speaker 2: We already have tape.
23:02
Speaker 4: We know everybody's gonna be to the table, and we
23:04
Speaker 4: also added Caraven really, so I feel like just us
23:07
Speaker 4: going out there and being ourselves gonna help us start fast.
23:11
Speaker 2: How different of a running back are you now than
23:13
Speaker 2: you were this time last year? Physically, mentally, the whole deal.
23:17
Speaker 2: I mean, officially, I feel great.
23:19
Speaker 4: I feel like I feel great last year physically, I
23:21
Speaker 4: would just say, well, I mean my biggest leap it
23:22
Speaker 4: just mentally and just understanding the little details of my position,
23:27
Speaker 4: just like me getting my shoulder square. Just how much
23:30
Speaker 4: that means and uh, just how much that means it
23:33
Speaker 4: to our offense and like just to a linebacker, like
23:35
Speaker 4: he can't dictate where I'm gonna go, or he can't
23:39
Speaker 4: get an early guests and where I'm gonna go, So
23:41
Speaker 4: kind of just playing cat and moss of the lineback
23:42
Speaker 4: and getting my shoulder square. So I feel like mentally
23:45
Speaker 4: I took a heel step and that's going to prepare
23:47
Speaker 4: me for this season.
23:48
Speaker 2: All right, Tank big as we comes in here, there's
23:50
Speaker 2: a lot of guys who's been around the league as
23:52
Speaker 2: well in this running back room. But take us through Tank.
23:55
Speaker 2: So far, how do you guys get along? How's the
23:57
Speaker 2: progression for the rookie?
23:59
Speaker 4: I mean, I love taking I love him. I mean
24:01
Speaker 4: I feel like he's just always ask some questions.
24:03
Speaker 2: And that's what.
24:04
Speaker 4: Uh, it's really good because a guy like that, he
24:06
Speaker 4: pushes you to be better. If he's always asking the questions,
24:10
Speaker 4: he always has my mind wandering, my mind searching for
24:12
Speaker 4: things so in art so I can be the best
24:14
Speaker 4: role model for him. And now I love that and
24:16
Speaker 4: he's hungry. He got that fire about him, and that's
24:19
Speaker 4: what I love. And that's what just running back needed
24:21
Speaker 4: in order to be to just get to that next level.
24:24
Speaker 4: Whenever I come out, ten goes in, it's no drop off,
24:27
Speaker 4: and I feel like that's going to just help us
24:29
Speaker 4: be the best team.
24:30
Speaker 2: Went for it. You talked about the receivers, but you
24:33
Speaker 2: guys in the passing game too. It's something that really
24:36
Speaker 2: wasn't utilized a lot last year, at least in your case.
24:39
Speaker 2: Could that be something you improve upon as this season
24:43
Speaker 2: goes along. In the receiving game, all those guys are
24:46
Speaker 2: gonna get attention running down field. That leaves you open. Yeah,
24:49
Speaker 2: most definitely.
24:50
Speaker 4: I feel like we're gonna continue to be in our
24:52
Speaker 4: spots and and I feel like this is gonna be
24:54
Speaker 4: a lot better because Travor's is his second year in
24:56
Speaker 4: Dust system, so he's gonna get to check down a
24:58
Speaker 4: lot quicker this year, and so I just want to
25:00
Speaker 4: running back just been in the spy and being ready
25:02
Speaker 4: to catch the ball whenever it comes out away. And
25:04
Speaker 4: I feel like that's all we can do is just
25:06
Speaker 4: be there and when a quarterback needs to just catch
25:08
Speaker 4: the ball and just like Gie, what we can.
25:09
Speaker 2: Are these the dog days of Camper. Are we still
25:12
Speaker 2: a little early for the dog days? Yeah? This is
25:13
Speaker 2: a long way until the first preseason game, right It's
25:16
Speaker 2: definitely not the dog days. These are the beautiful days
25:18
Speaker 2: right here.
25:19
Speaker 4: The dog days are soon to come, and uh we
25:22
Speaker 4: just have to just can't take these days for granted
25:24
Speaker 4: because of dog days. Like you said at dog Days
25:26
Speaker 4: and uh, those days you're going to have to fight
25:28
Speaker 4: and push through and just uh just went about it
25:30
Speaker 4: mentally because.
25:32
Speaker 2: Physically you're going to big exhausted.
25:34
Speaker 4: But it's all about can you can you can you
25:36
Speaker 4: speak to your body? Can you mind control your body?
25:38
Speaker 4: Can you keep going?
25:39
Speaker 2: It's Travis ETM Junior Jaguars running Back full conversation on
25:43
Speaker 2: the Official Jaguars Podcast Network over eleven hundred yards on
25:46
Speaker 2: the ground last year. Doug Peterson was talking about some
25:49
Speaker 2: of that technique stuff in his press conference earlier this week,
25:52
Speaker 2: which was very really revealing. It really was. Yeah, when
25:55
Speaker 2: when you talk about Travis last year at the very
25:59
Speaker 2: beginning of the year, Doug used a couple of descriptions
26:02
Speaker 2: there that I thought were spot on. I mean, I'm
26:06
Speaker 2: amazed at how well he describes it because he uses
26:10
Speaker 2: the term speed through the hole, not to the hole.
26:15
Speaker 2: And we saw at times last year when Travis was
26:18
Speaker 2: just kind of getting his feet wet, where he would
26:21
Speaker 2: be in a hurry to hit the hole, okay, and
26:24
Speaker 2: a lot of times he was in such a hurry
26:28
Speaker 2: he didn't have the patience to allow the hole to develop,
26:31
Speaker 2: or he didn't have his shoulder square to where he
26:33
Speaker 2: saw where the hole was. And so then to that point,
26:37
Speaker 2: like shoulders square to the line of squarecrimage to the
26:42
Speaker 2: line of scrimmates, because what that enables a running back
26:44
Speaker 2: to do is it allows them to have the vision
26:48
Speaker 2: to see where the options are. If you're facing the sideline,
26:52
Speaker 2: you can't see to the left or behind you well.
26:54
Speaker 2: And it not only gives you the ability to see
26:58
Speaker 2: the options what Travis alluded to, it keeps the linebackers
27:03
Speaker 2: and people that had the vision on him, they're not
27:06
Speaker 2: sure where he's going. If Travis turns his shoulders to
27:10
Speaker 2: the way he's running, the linebackers are going, Okay, I
27:13
Speaker 2: know where he's going. But Travis can actually run in
27:16
Speaker 2: that direction with his shoulder still square to the line
27:19
Speaker 2: of scrimmage, and it shows that he's still a threat
27:22
Speaker 2: to plant his foot and come back and go in
27:24
Speaker 2: a different direction. So that the shoulder square accomplishes two things.
27:29
Speaker 2: It allows Travis or any running back to have the
27:32
Speaker 2: vision to find the hole, but then it also keeps
27:36
Speaker 2: the defenders a little unsure of where he's committing to definitely,
27:41
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Yeah, and then the speed
27:44
Speaker 2: through the hole, Okay, allow yourself a little patience, and
27:47
Speaker 2: then once you see the hole, that's when you want
27:50
Speaker 2: to have. The speed is going through the hole, but
27:53
Speaker 2: not necessarily to the hole because the holes are constantly changing.
27:58
Speaker 2: Travis at times was a little impatient at the beginning
28:02
Speaker 2: of last year because he was in such a hurry
28:05
Speaker 2: to go. A lot of times he was out of
28:07
Speaker 2: control or he would not see the opening of where
28:11
Speaker 2: the hole truly opened up at or try to bounce
28:14
Speaker 2: it out a little too early and didn't have the patience.
28:16
Speaker 2: A home run again, impatience and that's speed through the hole,
28:21
Speaker 2: not to the hole. And it was a great description
28:24
Speaker 2: there by Doug and what I love Also, a coach's
28:29
Speaker 2: job is to get through to the players to teach
28:33
Speaker 2: the players. Did we not just hear the same speak
28:37
Speaker 2: from Doug that Travis is using. Okay, that means that
28:42
Speaker 2: the messaging is getting home and that the coaches their
28:47
Speaker 2: messages are heard. And that's what's impressive is that week
28:51
Speaker 2: in and week out with Doug, his messaging gets home.
28:56
Speaker 2: We're back in a moment linebacker play including Devan Lloyd.
29:01
Speaker 2: Jeff will get your take on what Devin has done
29:04
Speaker 2: so far in year number two, his first camp. Though
29:07
Speaker 2: he didn't have camp last year as a rookie, he
29:10
Speaker 2: certainly does in year two. It's the Doug Peterson Show
29:12
Speaker 2: on Jaguars Radio.
29:22
Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right now.
29:27
Speaker 3: It's a team. It's us, right, It's it's you know,
29:31
Speaker 3: when we get it down to the fifty three and
29:33
Speaker 3: you know it's those are the guys you you go
29:36
Speaker 3: to Sundays with and uh, you know it's it's it's
29:42
Speaker 3: just again for for a coach to hear that that
29:46
Speaker 3: that right there, can can can take your team a
29:48
Speaker 3: long way, right you can. It doesn't matter, it matter
29:53
Speaker 3: how much adversity comes your way. You know, if I
29:55
Speaker 3: got a lot of guys speak in that type of language.
29:58
Speaker 3: That's a positive that can carry us through a lot
30:00
Speaker 3: of different situations.
30:02
Speaker 2: The team mentality. Doug Peterson really discussing the left tackle situation,
30:07
Speaker 2: Cam Robinson, Walker Little helping each other, not worried about
30:11
Speaker 2: the animosity if there is apparently not any, and that's
30:14
Speaker 2: a team mentality. Welcome back as the Doug Peterson Show,
30:17
Speaker 2: JP Shadwick with Jeff Logoman. Head coach Doug Peterson will
30:21
Speaker 2: be with us in studio again week one before the
30:24
Speaker 2: Indianapolis Colts match up up at Lucas Oil Stadium. Was
30:27
Speaker 2: great having him last week though. It was great, Yeah, awesome.
30:30
Speaker 2: Hey sat in with us for ten minutes or so,
30:32
Speaker 2: and it was great. Year two for Devin Lloyd, first
30:38
Speaker 2: round pick. JAG's traded up to get him in last
30:42
Speaker 2: year's draft, and we all know what happened to him
30:45
Speaker 2: last season. He was hurting training camp early, didn't really
30:49
Speaker 2: have training camp at all. He was what the rookie
30:52
Speaker 2: of the month in September in the league. He had
30:54
Speaker 2: some big plays early, yeah, big time, and then he
30:58
Speaker 2: kind of faded as it went. The only line, you know,
31:01
Speaker 2: the only experience that he had in training camp preseason
31:05
Speaker 2: was the very last preseason game against Atlanta that he
31:08
Speaker 2: got a lot of reps. But besides that, it was
31:12
Speaker 2: kind of nothing. And he had a really good month
31:17
Speaker 2: of September, but you could still he still had moments
31:21
Speaker 2: in that month of December or September that his head
31:24
Speaker 2: was spinning and and Foyer was having to get him
31:27
Speaker 2: lined up. And then you hit this rookie wall, and
31:33
Speaker 2: Devin said that, you know, he started to have some
31:35
Speaker 2: doubts and lost confidence, and that's when you lose that,
31:41
Speaker 2: that's that's hard. It's hard to come back from that.
31:43
Speaker 2: And he's worked incredibly hard and a guy that I'm
31:47
Speaker 2: a huge fan of because his level of maturity is impressive.
31:52
Speaker 2: He is a leader. He is incredibly well spoken and
31:56
Speaker 2: smart when it comes to talking about the game of football.
32:00
Speaker 2: But he's still got to be able to take the
32:03
Speaker 2: next step. He can't rely on Foyer to get them
32:07
Speaker 2: lined up. He's got to be able to help line
32:10
Speaker 2: up other people. He has to anticipate as a linebacker
32:15
Speaker 2: or as a football player. If you're thinking about what
32:17
Speaker 2: your assignment is and where you need to line up,
32:19
Speaker 2: then you're not focusing in on what's important, which is
32:22
Speaker 2: the play that's in front of you and your opponent.
32:24
Speaker 2: You're not even trying to figure out what they're trying
32:27
Speaker 2: to do because you're trying to get lined up and
32:29
Speaker 2: if you're talking to somebody else, you can't see and
32:32
Speaker 2: react what's in front of you. So this is something
32:35
Speaker 2: that he has to be able to take major strides
32:39
Speaker 2: in this year, major strides. There's no questioning his athleticism.
32:44
Speaker 2: The guy moves so athletic as athletically it's impressive. But
32:50
Speaker 2: the one thing he does not have is great speed.
32:54
Speaker 2: So he's not like a four to five four low
32:57
Speaker 2: four five guy four linebacker or anything like that. So
33:01
Speaker 2: if you're not a Blazer like in Jaguars history, the
33:05
Speaker 2: fastest linebacker in reaction time was Paul Puslesni. The fastest
33:10
Speaker 2: linebacker as far as speed Telvin Smith. Sure, okay, so
33:15
Speaker 2: if you're pus Lesnie, your mind makes you play faster
33:20
Speaker 2: because you were quick to diagnose if you're Telvin. And
33:23
Speaker 2: it was fun watching those two guys play together because
33:26
Speaker 2: Paul would be one step forward towards where the play
33:30
Speaker 2: was going, Telvin still hadn't moved, and as soon as
33:33
Speaker 2: Paul's first step would hit the ground, then Telvin would move.
33:36
Speaker 2: But because Telvin was so fast, he still got there
33:38
Speaker 2: at the same time as Paul, you know what I mean.
33:41
Speaker 2: So if you're not fast and Devin's not a blazer, okay,
33:47
Speaker 2: then you need to have the mental aspect to where
33:50
Speaker 2: you can be faster making the diagnosis of the play
33:54
Speaker 2: so that you can start going where you want to go.
33:58
Speaker 2: But when he gets going is amazing and the ball
34:01
Speaker 2: just seems to find him. Yeah, he's around it. It
34:03
Speaker 2: will be interesting to see this year too, because last
34:07
Speaker 2: year was year one for Mike Caldwells, a defensive coordinator
34:10
Speaker 2: and the entirety of the defense. It was their first year.
34:13
Speaker 2: They're learning what their players do well, learning what their
34:16
Speaker 2: players don't do well. How much different schematically will the
34:20
Speaker 2: defense look this year? How much will they allow Devin
34:24
Speaker 2: Lloyd to do some of what he did at Utah,
34:27
Speaker 2: which is lining up on the end of the line
34:30
Speaker 2: of scrimmage maybe a bear kind of defense. Look, will
34:33
Speaker 2: he do some of that? That's that's gonna be fun
34:36
Speaker 2: to watch. But he's got to take a big step
34:38
Speaker 2: up for this defense to take a step off. I
34:41
Speaker 2: want to see him get after it go. I'm the
34:43
Speaker 2: biggest fan, Joe. Is he not the best guy? I
34:46
Speaker 2: mean he's started to talk to the super guy. I
34:48
Speaker 2: had a conversation with him. It's on the official Jaggs
34:50
Speaker 2: podcast network too, And yeah, he's his mind is clear,
34:54
Speaker 2: he's stronger, He's figured out what it takes to get
34:58
Speaker 2: through the rigors of a season to understands. Is it now?
35:00
Speaker 2: At least let me give people a story about Devin Lloyd. Okay,
35:04
Speaker 2: all off season he was here working out. Okay, was
35:07
Speaker 2: here for everything OTA's the workouts, committed, right, So then
35:14
Speaker 2: you go to the mandatory mini camp. He didn't have
35:18
Speaker 2: to go because he's been at every OTA. He's been
35:23
Speaker 2: at every workout. He was excused. Yeah, the vets were
35:27
Speaker 2: kind of yeah, you guys, some vets were expected to go.
35:31
Speaker 2: Devin was not expected to go. What did he do?
35:34
Speaker 2: He went to mini camp. He wanted the reps, folks.
35:38
Speaker 2: He went to mini camp because he wanted the reps
35:41
Speaker 2: when he didn't have to go. I mean that should
35:44
Speaker 2: tell you the kind of a player that he is.
35:46
Speaker 2: I mean he's been he was busting his hump all
35:48
Speaker 2: off season there for every OTA, all the workouts, and
35:52
Speaker 2: then Mini camp rowls around They're like, you don't need
35:54
Speaker 2: to be there, and he goes, I'm gonna be there.
35:57
Speaker 2: I'm not going to pass up the opportunity to get better.
35:59
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be there. Awesome. Love it when we returned.
36:04
Speaker 2: Tight Ends. The Doug Peterson Show continues on the Jaguars
36:08
Speaker 2: Radio Network.
36:16
Speaker 3: You just don't see the true why what we call
36:19
Speaker 3: a why tight end, that that big inline blocker much anymore.
36:22
Speaker 3: These guys are more athletic, they're skilled. Can they block? Yes,
36:26
Speaker 3: you know you're having to redesign some some you know,
36:29
Speaker 3: run plays where you're not asking them to block, you know,
36:32
Speaker 3: d ns and holding up and and so that position,
36:35
Speaker 3: you know, is a versatile position.
36:39
Speaker 2: Head coach Doug Peterson earlier this week discussing the tight
36:42
Speaker 2: end position and the where it's kind of trending around
36:47
Speaker 2: the NFL. Welcome Back is The Doug Peterson Show. JP
36:50
Speaker 2: Shadwick with Jeff Logman. Coach Peterson'll be back with us
36:53
Speaker 2: week one for the regular season edition of The Doug
36:57
Speaker 2: Peterson Show. There's some tight ends on this team. Logs.
37:01
Speaker 2: I'll say that Evan Ingram of course has the a
37:03
Speaker 2: new deal. Brenton Strange, the draft pick of course, has
37:07
Speaker 2: been getting plenty of reps, and you got Luke Farrell
37:11
Speaker 2: has been talked up all off season by this staff.
37:13
Speaker 2: Garrett Prince is putting together a good camp so far.
37:16
Speaker 2: Samus Reyis is the guy you want first off the
37:19
Speaker 2: bus to set the tone for what's gonna happen. He
37:23
Speaker 2: just he's a freak. He's six seven. And then Josh Peterson,
37:27
Speaker 2: son of Doug, spoke with the media today for the
37:30
Speaker 2: first time and he was in the USFL that's as
37:33
Speaker 2: a deep tight end room. Well, look, the reality is,
37:36
Speaker 2: I mean, how are they how many do you think
37:38
Speaker 2: they can keep interesting at four? I mean special teams
37:42
Speaker 2: will come into play in the back end of it,
37:44
Speaker 2: but I mean considering the use of tight ends in
37:47
Speaker 2: this offense, I mean, right now, my expectation is four. Okay,
37:52
Speaker 2: I think they would like and those four I think
37:54
Speaker 2: are pretty apparent. Evan Ingram, Luke Farrell, your draft pick,
37:59
Speaker 2: Brenton Strange, and then Prince, who has started out like gangbusters,
38:05
Speaker 2: you know, but he's got to be able to maintain
38:06
Speaker 2: that consistency and he's more in the lines of like
38:10
Speaker 2: an Evan Ingram, you know, where he's a pass catching
38:13
Speaker 2: tight end. What Doug talks about about how you kind
38:17
Speaker 2: of redesign some things because the league doesn't really have
38:20
Speaker 2: a big in line tight end anymore. Well, the guy
38:23
Speaker 2: that's probably the closest to that, which Chris manherts, was
38:27
Speaker 2: that guy last year. The guy that's probably as close
38:30
Speaker 2: to that now is Luke Ferrell. But Brenton Strange is
38:36
Speaker 2: a very capable blocker. I think you can put him
38:41
Speaker 2: on the end of the line of scrimmage. But I
38:42
Speaker 2: think his strength is is a little bit removed in
38:44
Speaker 2: blocking in space than I've said before. I think he's
38:47
Speaker 2: the best space blocking tight end I've ever watched college
38:50
Speaker 2: film on and I think he's tremendous in that capacity.
38:54
Speaker 2: And I think he's going to provide another level of
38:57
Speaker 2: success for runs when they get down the field because
39:00
Speaker 2: he's that good down the field blocking, which a lot
39:04
Speaker 2: of tight ends struggle in that because it's hard to
39:06
Speaker 2: track down a guy in space when he has that
39:08
Speaker 2: much maneuverability in the open ground. So I think that's
39:12
Speaker 2: gonna help. But here's the other thing. If you really
39:16
Speaker 2: need an in line tight end, that bad play another
39:19
Speaker 2: offensive lineman. Right. Did they do some of that last year? Sure? Yeah,
39:24
Speaker 2: and you can do that. And so if there's one
39:29
Speaker 2: guy that you're sitting there going, oh, well, you know's see,
39:32
Speaker 2: there's two guys that are susceptible if you're only going
39:35
Speaker 2: to keep three, Luke Ferrell and Prince. So what happened?
39:41
Speaker 2: I don't know it'll be I think they keep four
39:44
Speaker 2: and I think it's a good group. I think it's
39:47
Speaker 2: a really good group. Evan Ingram looks in fantastic show
39:50
Speaker 2: and to his credit, he is out early. He's one
39:52
Speaker 2: of the first, if not the first player out every
39:54
Speaker 2: day getting his work in before it goes back to JP.
39:58
Speaker 2: The thing that I've talked to about last year and
40:01
Speaker 2: that it was a great job and personnel of bringing
40:06
Speaker 2: in guys that had a work ethic for a young quarterback,
40:10
Speaker 2: Evan Ingram, Zay Jones, Rob, I mean Christian Kirk. I
40:14
Speaker 2: mean these guys worked every single day and for a
40:18
Speaker 2: young quarterback that was oh so important. Well, that work ethic.
40:22
Speaker 2: Just because Evan Ingram got a new contract, it didn't
40:25
Speaker 2: go away. That's how he is, That's how he's wired,
40:29
Speaker 2: and that's what you love about Evan Ingram. He was
40:32
Speaker 2: never one of those guys that you go you know,
40:34
Speaker 2: if we pay him, is he going to have the
40:37
Speaker 2: same come to work, you know, grinded attitude. He may not. No, No,
40:42
Speaker 2: that was never a concern with him, and he's proven it.
40:45
Speaker 2: He's been out there grinding and working incredibly hard. And
40:50
Speaker 2: Brenton Strange is a hard worker too. There's a guy
40:52
Speaker 2: that comes to practice every day. He's impressed me so far.
40:56
Speaker 2: Music lives here. The Dailies play season is in full

Speaker 2: shows and tickets available at Dailyesplace dot com. This is
41:37
Speaker 2: the Doug Peterson Show on Jaguars Radio.
41:46
Speaker 1: Welcome back. The Doug Peterson Show continues right now.
41:55
Speaker 3: I think so, you know, there's just not enough reps,
41:58
Speaker 3: you know, to go around there's not enough throw there's
42:00
Speaker 3: the way practices are structured in the amount of time
42:03
Speaker 3: you can spend on the field. You just you know,
42:06
Speaker 3: you have to maximize what you can and so yeah,
42:10
Speaker 3: I think it is part of that. You know that
42:12
Speaker 3: you're seeing three instead of four, but you know, just
42:17
Speaker 3: not enough reps to go around.
42:19
Speaker 2: Doug Peterson talking quarterbacks in the old days. You know,
42:23
Speaker 2: like six seven years ago, you have four quarterbacks in
42:26
Speaker 2: training camp, but no more. The timing has changed. Welcome
42:31
Speaker 2: back to Doug Peterson Show, Final Moments of the program,
42:34
Speaker 2: JP Shadwick, Jeff Logoman and let me let me add
42:37
Speaker 2: to this that there's not enough reps to go around
42:40
Speaker 2: for four quarterbacks. But the reality is is that there's
42:44
Speaker 2: not enough quality to justify keeping four. Typically. Okay, if
42:49
Speaker 2: if all of a sudden you've got four supremely talented quarterbacks,
42:55
Speaker 2: you're gonna find a way to find reps for four quarterbacks, Okay,
42:58
Speaker 2: but it's just hard to find the talent that justifies
43:03
Speaker 2: a fourth. Upcoming schedule, players are off Friday and then
43:08
Speaker 2: three consecutive days of pads Saturday, it's in the stadium,
43:13
Speaker 2: Sunday and Monday at the Miller Electric Center, and Doug
43:17
Speaker 2: Peterson said this week that was really by design when
43:19
Speaker 2: these scheduled training camp, Hey, this is the time to
43:22
Speaker 2: really kind of find out a lot of things about
43:24
Speaker 2: this football team. Saturday, Sunday, Monday. Yeah, and it's uh,
43:28
Speaker 2: it's look, it's it's the modern day grind. I guess
43:32
Speaker 2: you could say, right, uh, but uh, look, uh, these guys,
43:37
Speaker 2: I mean, this is where they bond. This is where
43:40
Speaker 2: you you sweat, you bleed, you you you have a
43:44
Speaker 2: little bit of mental toughness like ETN talked about. And
43:48
Speaker 2: this is where also that you put in the hard
43:50
Speaker 2: work so that when you get into the season, you're
43:54
Speaker 2: you've got a lot of reps under your belt on
43:56
Speaker 2: these things that might not get used frequently once you
43:59
Speaker 2: get into the regular season. You're paying the bills, so
44:02
Speaker 2: to speak, right now for the rewards later. We've got
44:05
Speaker 2: football tonight. Quickly, Who do you got Hall of Fame game?
44:08
Speaker 2: Jets Browns in Canton, Ohio again? Hall of Fame game
44:15
Speaker 2: like last year when we were there, and pick a winner,
44:18
Speaker 2: and no, I wouldn't pick a winner. I'm just there's
44:20
Speaker 2: some young guys though that I want to watch. And
44:22
Speaker 2: of course Aaron Rodgers. It's the big store in New York.
