- 0:17Speaker 1: And now, newly hired third string long snapper, Kainane Stephens.
- 0:25Speaker 2: I don't know if I can make the cut. Devon
- 0:26Speaker 2: Hamilton might have that thing locked down. Welcome into happy
- 0:29Speaker 2: hour brought to you by Jet Home Loans. I'm Kainani Stevens,
- 0:32Speaker 2: as mentioned, third string long snapper. Pete Prisco from CBS
- 0:35Speaker 2: Sports and Austin Lane are with me today. We're going
- 0:38Speaker 2: to go over what's coming up, though, because we sure
- 0:40Speaker 2: have a lot of talk about after that game. It's
- 0:43Speaker 2: presented by Deep Eddie Vodka, handcrafted with real fruit, proud
- 0:45Speaker 2: partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars. So there's a big, big
- 0:49Speaker 2: time kick by Little to end the game and obviously
- 0:51Speaker 2: get the win. And the cardiac cats are back because
- 0:53Speaker 2: I was stressed out. watching this game i don't watch
- 0:57Speaker 2: games well apparently um and that was just a lot
- 1:00Speaker 2: for that early in the morning for me but we
- 1:02Speaker 2: will keep it real about coaching decisions across the league
- 1:06Speaker 2: not just in this game but just choices were made
- 1:08Speaker 2: and then we'll also answer some of your fan questions
- 1:11Speaker 2: because we got a lot of really good ones today
- 1:12Speaker 2: i might spread them out throughout the show but Welcome
- 1:15Speaker 2: in to Pete and Austin. And you guys, I mean,
- 1:18Speaker 2: that was the start of a long day of football,
- 1:20Speaker 2: but it was quite a start to a day. Just
- 1:22Speaker 2: everybody's had a full day now to think about it.
- 1:25Speaker 2: What are our thoughts after all of that?
- 1:28Speaker 3: Pete, go ahead, man. You got it first.
- 1:30Speaker 4: Well, okay.
- 1:31Speaker 5: I'll start out by saying if you win a game
- 1:34Speaker 5: like that, You should go to the locker room and
- 1:36Speaker 5: thank your lucky stars.
- 1:38Speaker 2: I don't think anyone felt good. Yeah. I mean, it
- 1:40Speaker 2: was very fortunate for sure.
- 1:42Speaker 4: But it's also something you can build on.
- 1:45Speaker 5: And I've seen that in this league a long time
- 1:49Speaker 5: where a team wins a game they shouldn't win. And
- 1:53Speaker 5: it kind of realizes that, hey, maybe we're not as
- 1:56Speaker 5: good as we thought we were. And we got to
- 1:58Speaker 5: pay attention to details and penalties and mistakes and drops
- 2:03Speaker 5: and everything else and get refocused. So the good can
- 2:08Speaker 5: come out of that.
- 2:09Speaker 4: But boy, that was tough to watch on Sunday.
- 2:12Speaker 3: You know, I said going into that game and also
- 2:15Speaker 3: the Houston Texans game coming up where those two games
- 2:17Speaker 3: will tell you what kind of locker room you have.
- 2:18Speaker 3: Because at least on paper, there's supposed to be two
- 2:21Speaker 3: games that you're supposed to win. Now, I'll be honest.
- 2:23Speaker 3: I thought the Eagles game. would have been handled pretty decisively.
- 2:26Speaker 2: It was like the quintessential trap game, apparently. As soon
- 2:28Speaker 2: as it started, I was like, no.
- 2:30Speaker 3: Apparently, but they're missing Saquon. They're missing Devontae Smith. That offense,
- 2:34Speaker 3: you couldn't fathom them putting up any points at all.
- 2:38Speaker 3: You just didn't see how the Eagles were going to
- 2:39Speaker 3: get it done. Well, it became a sloppy game. Obviously,
- 2:43Speaker 3: we'll get into some of the coaching decisions, the clock management.
- 2:46Speaker 3: And sometimes you want to say, okay, well, the players
- 2:49Speaker 3: just didn't play good. And sometimes you want to say, well,
- 2:51Speaker 3: was the preparation there? From top to bottom on that offense,
- 2:54Speaker 3: and the offensive line especially, I don't think anybody really
- 2:58Speaker 3: had a great day, Pete. So when you can couple
- 3:00Speaker 3: that and then the penalties as well, once again, carrying
- 3:03Speaker 3: on from Cincinnati, to me that was more of was
- 3:06Speaker 3: this team really prepared? Were they executing like they should
- 3:08Speaker 3: have been against a team that they probably should have
- 3:11Speaker 3: handedly beat? And the answer is, well, no, they were not.
- 3:13Speaker 3: So when it comes down to that, you look at, okay, well,
- 3:16Speaker 3: they didn't exceed expectations, played down to the competition's level,
- 3:20Speaker 3: and You know, that's when the leaders are going to
- 3:22Speaker 3: have to come up and almost like bring the coaches
- 3:24Speaker 3: up a little bit and win one for the coaches.
- 3:26Speaker 3: And that's what it seemed like that game was yesterday.
- 3:29Speaker 3: So to echo Pete, like, yes, this is a game
- 3:30Speaker 3: you can build off, obviously, even though it should have
- 3:33Speaker 3: been a pretty decisive victory. It wasn't. But I think
- 3:36Speaker 3: this Jaguars team kind of took Liam Cohen and said, hey, man,
- 3:39Speaker 3: we got your back for this one. Let's get this dub.
- 3:42Speaker 2: I don't always do this, but I feel like there's
- 3:44Speaker 2: so much going on. We should almost start at the
- 3:45Speaker 2: beginning and go through because on the kickoff, we're already starting.
- 3:50Speaker 2: We come in last week. We talk about penalties. We
- 3:52Speaker 2: talk about, oh, it's, you know, it's partially officiating crews.
- 3:55Speaker 1: Yes.
- 3:55Speaker 2: But also like you cannot do that. You cannot have
- 3:57Speaker 2: 13 penalties a game and they have 13 penalties a
- 3:59Speaker 2: game and they had offsetting penalties and a fight that
- 4:02Speaker 2: we didn't even see. until the third quarter.
- 4:04Speaker 4: Let me ask you this.
- 4:05Speaker 5: Who was, because did they ever say who the hole,
- 4:08Speaker 5: was it on Combs?
- 4:09Speaker 2: It's on Combs, but the best part is when they
- 4:11Speaker 2: do the slow-mo, he just gets trucked over and I
- 4:14Speaker 2: don't understand how that's a hole they call. It was
- 4:16Speaker 2: a terrible call.
- 4:17Speaker 4: So it should have been 7-0 to begin with.
- 4:19Speaker 5: Correct. And then they would have had offsetting penalties. and
- 4:21Speaker 5: they were to decline the one on.
- 4:23Speaker 4: Them, so it should have been 7-0.
- 4:25Speaker 5: That was a terrible call, because I watched the tape today,
- 4:27Speaker 5: and when you watch the tape, you can really see it,
- 4:29Speaker 5: and you see the two guys over there having their
- 4:32Speaker 5: little fight on the thing, and then it cuts off
- 4:34Speaker 5: right away, but terrible, terrible penalty on Combs, because he
- 4:38Speaker 5: didn't hold. Like you said, he got trunked.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Yeah, and I don't know what this whole thing now is.
- 4:44Speaker 3: When a player runs to the side of you, and
- 4:46Speaker 3: your opponent's trying to grab it and make a tackle...
- 4:49Speaker 3: and that's an automatic hold. That's what it seems like
- 4:52Speaker 3: they're calling now, and it's a football play. It's not
- 4:55Speaker 3: a holding play. So, listen, like, you know, watching it back,
- 4:58Speaker 3: obviously it was a egregious call and everything, but, like,
- 5:01Speaker 3: it's funny because I saw that play happen. Josh Cameron
- 5:02Speaker 3: takes it to the house. I'm like, okay, here we go, right? Like,
- 5:05Speaker 3: this is what it's going to be. I was going
- 5:07Speaker 3: to Uber eat some brunch. Never mind. I'll go pick
- 5:09Speaker 3: it up myself because this game might be over by halftime. Like,
- 5:11Speaker 3: this is what we all thought.
- 5:12Speaker 4: Yeah, look at Combs.
- 5:13Speaker 5: Watch him.
- 5:14Speaker 4: He's a turtle.
- 5:14Speaker 2: He's that guy.
- 5:16Speaker 3: He's a turtle.
- 5:17Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 5:19Speaker 4: He was on his back, and he couldn't get up.
- 5:21Speaker 4: He was a turtle.
- 5:22Speaker 5: I mean, that's what that was.
- 5:23Speaker 3: So then this gets called back. Players get ejected. And
- 5:27Speaker 3: it was at that moment where I'm thinking, okay, this
- 5:30Speaker 3: might be one of those games.
- 5:31Speaker 2: Well, the refs are already making an appearance, and we
- 5:33Speaker 2: haven't even officially gotten into the game yet. So, yes,
- 5:35Speaker 2: you knew it was not great.
- 5:37Speaker 5: But that was a good trade, getting ejected, because he
- 5:39Speaker 5: got rid of the fourth or fifth pass rusher for
- 5:42Speaker 5: one of their starting linebackers.
- 5:44Speaker 4: So that's a good trade.
- 5:46Speaker 3: But also, I mean, are we going to– I don't know, man.
- 5:48Speaker 2: Is that what we're tossing people over?
- 5:49Speaker 3: Yeah, but like it's... Yeah, like why is that an injection?
- 5:53Speaker 3: You know, yeah. I don't know, man.
- 5:55Speaker 2: Here's a good look at the.
- 5:56Speaker 3: Here we go.
- 5:57Speaker 4: Here's the turtle.
- 5:58Speaker 2: On the left there. That was the hold as he got...
- 6:01Speaker 2: Held him as he fell to the ground, I guess.
- 6:03Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 6:04Speaker 5: I mean, that was not a hold.
- 6:06Speaker 2: Correct. Yeah.
- 6:07Speaker 5: It was a terrible call. So seven points off the board,
- 6:11Speaker 5: but you're right. You get the message and right off
- 6:13Speaker 5: the bat, you're saying, okay, well, here they go.
- 6:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 6:16Speaker 2: And then... So Jaguars, Eagles got the kick, won the
- 6:20Speaker 2: coin toss, so they deferred. So Jaguars have the ball
- 6:21Speaker 2: to start that first drive. Holding, sack fumble, I guess
- 6:27Speaker 2: you could call it, whatever Trevor's. It was a long,
- 6:30Speaker 2: long day for Trevor dealing with the defensive front from
- 6:33Speaker 2: the Eagles, but that kind of fumble situation, not great.
- 6:37Speaker 2: Delay of game, second and 40. Eventually, they have to punt.
- 6:41Speaker 2: And then Ross Madison goes to make the tackle, dives
- 6:43Speaker 2: out of bounds into the Eagles' sideline and hurts his shoulder.
- 6:45Speaker 2: And that was the last play of the game that
- 6:47Speaker 2: he was involved in. And so immediately we go into Eagles'
- 6:51Speaker 2: first drive. They go forward on fourth down. Deham gets
- 6:53Speaker 2: a great stop. Virtual measurement. They check the virtual measurement,
- 6:56Speaker 2: which I didn't know was a thing that they also
- 6:58Speaker 2: will do once they brought that in. So call stands
- 7:02Speaker 2: as it is. They turn over on downs. And then
- 7:04Speaker 2: going the other way, you get the Parker Washington touchdown.
- 7:07Speaker 2: At first, I was like, OK, this is chaos. And
- 7:09Speaker 2: then you get your first Parker touchdown. You're like, OK,
- 7:11Speaker 2: maybe we can get on the board here, turn this around.
- 7:13Speaker 2: Parker's played well in London historically. We know he can
- 7:16Speaker 2: be a big playmaker for this team. Get that going.
- 7:20Speaker 2: And then after that, you got Devon Hamilton in at Snapper,
- 7:23Speaker 2: which is just, we saw that last year in the
- 7:25Speaker 2: Titans game at Nashville, and I didn't think we were
- 7:28Speaker 2: going to see it again so soon.
- 7:29Speaker 3: Well, and that was the wild thing, too, because I
- 7:30Speaker 3: felt like I was getting gaslit yesterday watching the Eagles broadcast,
- 7:33Speaker 3: it seemed like.
- 7:34Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like it never happened before.
- 7:35Speaker 3: Because it's like, did Devon Hamilton snap last year? No,
- 7:38Speaker 3: I had to recollect my memory thinking, did I get
- 7:40Speaker 3: punched too much in fighting? Where I could have swore
- 7:42Speaker 3: Devon Hamilton handled it pretty much last year and they
- 7:45Speaker 3: didn't really skip a bead. And yeah, I mean, like, listen,
- 7:48Speaker 3: Pete wants to give him all the credit in the world,
- 7:50Speaker 3: maybe the best defensive player on the Jaguars. I might
- 7:52Speaker 3: not disagree with him right now, but then look at
- 7:54Speaker 3: him stepping up too and being another long snapper when
- 7:56Speaker 3: he has to be. Now, was it perfect? No, but
- 7:58Speaker 3: given that situation, given the circumstances with the game on
- 8:01Speaker 3: the line, we'll talk about later with that Cam Little kick.
- 8:04Speaker 3: I mean, props to Devon Hamilton for stepping up because
- 8:06Speaker 3: as someone who was a college long snapper back in
- 8:08Speaker 3: my day, I lasted three spring practices and coach said, yeah,
- 8:12Speaker 3: this isn't for you. And that was it. Like, it's
- 8:14Speaker 3: not an easy job to do.
- 8:16Speaker 5: By the way, he was actually better on the punt
- 8:18Speaker 5: snaps than he was on the extra point and field
- 8:21Speaker 5: goal snaps.
- 8:21Speaker 2: I think what, at least from my point of view, Pete,
- 8:23Speaker 2: you tell me if you think this. It seems like
- 8:25Speaker 2: he keeps, he just does it the same every time,
- 8:27Speaker 2: which is kind of at Logan's chest if he's ready
- 8:29Speaker 2: to punt and kind of does it at the same
- 8:31Speaker 2: level rather than trying to get cute with it. And
- 8:33Speaker 2: that's why a lot of them were high. I don't
- 8:35Speaker 2: think that's an excuse, but I'm assuming he doesn't know
- 8:37Speaker 2: how to do it. So he kind of just does
- 8:38Speaker 2: it the same every time.
- 8:39Speaker 5: Plus his hands are taped, if I'm not mistaken.
- 8:41Speaker 2: Correct. I believe he took it off once he knew
- 8:43Speaker 2: he was going to have to continue to do or
- 8:45Speaker 2: lessened it some degree. But yeah, he's got his gloves
- 8:46Speaker 2: on and he's got the big tape on. So if
- 8:48Speaker 2: you're trying to have some dexterity and actually get that done. Plus,
- 8:51Speaker 2: as mentioned, you know, 300 plus pounds trying to go
- 8:54Speaker 2: upside down under your legs and long snap. There's a
- 8:56Speaker 2: reason it is a specialist position.
- 8:59Speaker 3: Yes, it is.
- 9:00Speaker 5: And by the way, you know, you mentioned the starting drive.
- 9:03Speaker 5: From the minute that drive started to the end of
- 9:05Speaker 5: the game, Jalen Carter played like the guy from Fast
- 9:08Speaker 5: Times at Ridgemont High when they destroyed his car. I mean,
- 9:12Speaker 5: that's what he played like. Remember Forrest Whitaker?
- 9:14Speaker 3: I got you, man. I got you. It's a reference.
- 9:18Speaker 5: It was like.
- 9:19Speaker 4: It was unreal.
- 9:21Speaker 5: And I told you, I watched him last week, and
- 9:23Speaker 5: he was playing with the club on his hand. And
- 9:25Speaker 5: the tape, he was trying, but he'd get passed down
- 9:28Speaker 5: and he'd get double and triple teamed and he couldn't be, well,
- 9:31Speaker 5: Jacksonville couldn't, if they tried to double him, they weren't
- 9:33Speaker 5: beating him. He was beating everybody.
- 9:35Speaker 2: He was just beating Ezra. At a certain point, I
- 9:37Speaker 2: was just like, please just stand in front of him
- 9:39Speaker 2: because he was just running by.
- 9:41Speaker 5: And then he beat Cole Van Lannen on the one
- 9:43Speaker 5: when he went around the outside and beat him on
- 9:44Speaker 5: that one. I mean, he was everywhere.
- 9:46Speaker 4: It was unreal how well he played.
- 9:48Speaker 5: And that's what he should be, by the way. He
- 9:50Speaker 5: doesn't always play to that. But remember, that was kind
- 9:53Speaker 5: of a national TV game, so to speak, because it's
- 9:56Speaker 5: a standalone.
- 9:57Speaker 4: That's what he does in those kind of games.
- 9:59Speaker 2: And that's like... to me that's the epitome of game
- 10:01Speaker 2: wrecker when you talk about a player that can can
- 10:03Speaker 2: control a game and yes i understand the eagles lost
- 10:05Speaker 2: but he wrecked that any any semblance of a game
- 10:08Speaker 2: he was just dominant.
- 10:10Speaker 5: By the way pregnant had the hold i think on
- 10:12Speaker 5: the first drive.
- 10:13Speaker 2: Yes he had a couple several.
- 10:15Speaker 5: It was he had three three penalties but i think
- 10:17Speaker 5: one of those was really questionable i thought The one
- 10:21Speaker 5: on Carter, when he pulled, when he, when they asked
- 10:23Speaker 5: him to pull and try, he didn't even do that. Yeah.
- 10:26Speaker 3: Yeah. No, I agree with you, Pete. Like, listen, this is,
- 10:30Speaker 3: this is becoming an epidemic with, with, with these flags, man. And,
- 10:33Speaker 3: and I don't understand it. Like, They used to err
- 10:37Speaker 3: on the side of letting the guys play, especially in
- 10:40Speaker 3: the trenches. And for whatever rhyme or reason, that has
- 10:43Speaker 3: gone to the wayside. And we're seeing every little thing.
- 10:46Speaker 3: If I'm a defensive tackle now, all I'm doing is
- 10:48Speaker 3: just sticking my hand out like this, going for a tackle,
- 10:51Speaker 3: and I'll probably get the call. That's what it's become now.
- 10:54Speaker 3: And I have no idea why it's become like that.
- 10:56Speaker 2: It's frustrating, too.
- 10:58Speaker 4: They had a lot of penalties, too, the Eagles, didn't
- 10:59Speaker 4: they not?
- 11:00Speaker 2: Yeah, they had seven. Was it 20 total? I think
- 11:02Speaker 2: they had seven as well.
- 11:03Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, so it's not like, I mean, Jacksonville's getting, yeah.
- 11:07Speaker 5: But Jacksonville had a lot of pre-snap garbage that they're
- 11:10Speaker 5: back to. That reminded me of early last year.
- 11:13Speaker 2: And yes, it does remind you of early season last year.
- 11:15Speaker 2: And I'm sure we'll get into it, Pete, because I'm
- 11:17Speaker 2: not sure. I mean, some of it was definitely the noise,
- 11:19Speaker 2: because as you could tell, it was very loud, specifically
- 11:22Speaker 2: later in the fourth quarter when they were down the
- 11:23Speaker 2: goal line, like even Trevor getting frustrated, right? Spiking the
- 11:26Speaker 2: ball when they can't get the playoff. But that was
- 11:29Speaker 2: it's just chopping. It's frustrating. It's not fun to watch either.
- 11:32Speaker 2: Like even when you're calling it both ways, I don't.
- 11:34Speaker 2: think they were overly.
- 11:35Speaker 5: No, when you're second and 15 and second and 17
- 11:38Speaker 5: and you're behind the sticks the whole time, it takes
- 11:41Speaker 5: you out of any... Anytime they tried to get in
- 11:43Speaker 5: any sort of rhythm, they couldn't. And no, they're not
- 11:46Speaker 5: much as blamed as anybody, though.
- 11:48Speaker 3: They were sloppy.
- 11:49Speaker 5: It was sloppy across the board. They were getting beat
- 11:51Speaker 5: up front. They were holding when they did get beat.
- 11:54Speaker 5: And then the pre-staff penalties infuriate me.
- 11:58Speaker 4: If I was a head coach, those are the ones
- 12:00Speaker 4: that would drive me up a wall.
- 12:01Speaker 3: Well, and especially down towards the goal line, too, where...
- 12:04Speaker 3: You know, and we wait a little bit to get
- 12:07Speaker 3: into that. No, you can get into it.
- 12:08Speaker 5: Let's get into it.
- 12:08Speaker 3: I mean, you know, in terms of the brand of
- 12:11Speaker 3: football that you're trying to display is physical. Okay?
- 12:14Speaker 5: So.
- 12:15Speaker 3: And then granted, yes, you're going against Jalen Carter, who
- 12:17Speaker 3: was the reincarnation, it seemed like, of Aaron Donald that game. Okay, fine.
- 12:20Speaker 3: But you did have a little success every once in
- 12:21Speaker 3: a while of running between the tackles, or if not, then,
- 12:25Speaker 3: you know, pitch it and let two and have that vision,
- 12:27Speaker 3: because now he's getting better with the vision, too. Like,
- 12:29Speaker 3: when he gets the ball in space, he does a
- 12:31Speaker 3: great job of taking his time, locating, and then exploding
- 12:34Speaker 3: in the hole. The whole goal line series, it just
- 12:39Speaker 3: can't happen.
- 12:40Speaker 2: All right. Let me tee us up for this.
- 12:42Speaker 5: We didn't get into that whole thing because there was
- 12:43Speaker 5: a couple of them actually that were garbage.
- 12:45Speaker 2: We'll jump ahead. Fourth quarter. So they have that huge
- 12:48Speaker 2: pass to Brent Strange, 27 yards. They get down to
- 12:50Speaker 2: the one-yard line. So... They immediately have a false start
- 12:54Speaker 2: penalty on Walker Little, who's coming, because Anton Harrison hurt
- 12:57Speaker 2: his knee, so he's in.
- 12:58Speaker 5: He flinched.
- 12:58Speaker 4: He flinched when a defensive lineman in front of him moved.
- 13:00Speaker 4: He flinched.
- 13:01Speaker 2: Correct. Then Basial Tootin goes to the right, has a
- 13:04Speaker 2: gain of two. Then penalty, delay of game. No play.
- 13:07Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence.
- 13:08Speaker 4: That stayed excusable. That should never happen.
- 13:10Speaker 2: On the second and four at that point. So then
- 13:15Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence incomplete to Brian Thomas. to the right side.
- 13:19Speaker 2: Then penalty delay of game. Again, it's third and nine
- 13:22Speaker 2: goes to third and 14.
- 13:23Speaker 3: Real quick to Pete on that play to Brian Thomas.
- 13:29Speaker 3: Is that how you catch that ball?
- 13:30Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 13:31Speaker 3: I mean, he has to have that, right?
- 13:33Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 13:34Speaker 4: I get it.
- 13:35Speaker 3: I understand. It's a hard play to make us like
- 13:37Speaker 3: I kind of tripped up a little bit, but you
- 13:39Speaker 3: still got to make that play.
- 13:40Speaker 5: And by the way, it was glossed over on the broadcast.
- 13:46Speaker 5: The throw that Trevor made on the first goal line
- 13:48Speaker 5: situation at the end of the half, he should have
- 13:51Speaker 5: caught that one. It looked like.
- 13:52Speaker 2: There were two. Yeah.
- 13:53Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 13:55Speaker 2: At halftime, they should have caught that. And then this
- 13:56Speaker 2: one looked like his heel came down in, but then
- 13:59Speaker 2: his toe was out of bounds. He wasn't able to
- 14:01Speaker 2: come down.
- 14:01Speaker 3: Right.
- 14:02Speaker 5: And here, I think this is the, this is the
- 14:04Speaker 5: second one.
- 14:04Speaker 3: Yes.
- 14:06Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 14:06Speaker 4: Oh, this is when him.
- 14:07Speaker 5: And Trevor get frustrated.
- 14:07Speaker 2: This is Trevor getting mad, which is about as mad
- 14:09Speaker 2: as we've ever seen Trevor. This is the second delay
- 14:11Speaker 2: of game, I think, or the.
- 14:13Speaker 3: First delay of game. Listen, I was there, too. I
- 14:15Speaker 3: almost threw my remote at the exact moment, too. So
- 14:17Speaker 3: I'm glad that me and.
- 14:17Speaker 5: Trevor launched in the same zone. And that's just sloppiness.
- 14:19Speaker 5: And by the way, you could see during the game
- 14:21Speaker 5: he was having trouble getting the play calls in on time,
- 14:25Speaker 5: and he was coming to the line and banging his
- 14:27Speaker 5: hands to snap it a couple different times, and they didn't.
- 14:29Speaker 4: Get the delay of game.
- 14:31Speaker 3: Pete, let me ask you this, because it looked like
- 14:33Speaker 3: he kind of went to Hainsey a little bit after
- 14:34Speaker 3: that then and kind of said something to him. Is
- 14:37Speaker 3: this more on the center or is this on Liam Cohen?
- 14:40Speaker 5: I think it's on Liam, the quarterback, and the center.
- 14:45Speaker 5: But I think it's the play call coming in and
- 14:48Speaker 5: then Trevor getting it out and getting to the line
- 14:51Speaker 5: of scrimmage.
- 14:51Speaker 3: You've got to.
- 14:52Speaker 5: Be able to get– I don't understand.
- 14:55Speaker 4: It's not just him.
- 14:56Speaker 5: It's a league-wide thing.
- 14:57Speaker 4: You see it a lot.
- 14:58Speaker 5: Get the play in. get to the line of scrimmage
- 15:01Speaker 5: and be able to get out of the play. He
- 15:05Speaker 5: has kill plays. He has, he can check to a
- 15:08Speaker 5: different play, but if the play clock's going down, you're
- 15:11Speaker 5: not checking out of anything.
- 15:13Speaker 3: But here's what I asked you. Cause we watched Aaron
- 15:14Speaker 3: Rogers last week. Absolutely. Cuss out Mike McCarthy for not
- 15:18Speaker 3: getting the play in, you know, and I get it's
- 15:20Speaker 3: Aaron Rogers. So he's built up a little more. No,
- 15:22Speaker 3: but like we have seen Liam and Trevor kind of
- 15:24Speaker 3: go back and forth a little bit. And that's football sometimes.
- 15:27Speaker 3: I was just surprised that he went after Hainsey more
- 15:29Speaker 3: than like, look at the sidelines and say, let's get
- 15:30Speaker 3: the call in. So that's why I was wondering.
- 15:32Speaker 4: What happened there is I think he gave him the signal.
- 15:34Speaker 5: Give me the ball.
- 15:35Speaker 3: Give me the ball.
- 15:35Speaker 4: And Hainsey didn't snap it. Okay.
- 15:38Speaker 2: And Pete, do you also think there was some, I
- 15:40Speaker 2: know when they know they're going to a loud environment
- 15:42Speaker 2: like Denver, they practice a lot of silent count. They,
- 15:44Speaker 2: they prepare for that. This Eagles game was an Eagles
- 15:48Speaker 2: home game essentially by crowd noise. And it felt like
- 15:50Speaker 2: the sound was getting to them a little bit. Not
- 15:53Speaker 2: only were they slow to get it in, they weren't
- 15:54Speaker 2: communicating as well either.
- 15:57Speaker 5: Yeah, probably. You saw a couple times where Trevor was
- 15:59Speaker 5: telling somebody to get over, and they got called for
- 16:02Speaker 5: an illegal procedure because somebody didn't get set on one
- 16:04Speaker 5: of those plays either. So if you're in that environment,
- 16:06Speaker 5: and it's different than what you thought it was going
- 16:08Speaker 5: to be, get the damn play in quicker. I mean,
- 16:11Speaker 5: if he gets the play in quicker, he comes to
- 16:13Speaker 5: the line of scrimmage, and he can get into what
- 16:15Speaker 5: he needs to get into.
- 16:16Speaker 4: And he has the wristband again, right?
- 16:20Speaker 2: Yes.
- 16:21Speaker 3: Okay, so.
- 16:23Speaker 5: Call the play on the wristband, make it easy so
- 16:26Speaker 5: he can look at the wristband and go. It cuts
- 16:29Speaker 5: down on the verbiage. And when the verbiage is cut down,
- 16:32Speaker 5: Trevor should get the play. You know, they give him
- 16:34Speaker 5: a number or whatever. He looks at the play, reads
- 16:36Speaker 5: the play, goes and calls it, has a play, a
- 16:39Speaker 5: kill play, can come to the line of scrimmage, change
- 16:42Speaker 5: the play, which I think he did later in the game,
- 16:44Speaker 5: by the way. It looked like he got scolded for.
- 16:46Speaker 5: And then you have time on the play clock. What's
- 16:50Speaker 5: the reason... Okay, Liam looks at his play sheet and says, okay,
- 16:54Speaker 5: let's go to our third and goal plays at the
- 16:58Speaker 5: eight-yard line. And he says, okay, I'm inside the 10,
- 17:00Speaker 5: and we've got.
- 17:01Speaker 3: This right here.
- 17:02Speaker 5: And he goes to it. He says he gives it
- 17:03Speaker 5: to him. Then Trevor reads it off the wristband, and
- 17:06Speaker 5: away you go. It shouldn't be anything more than that.
- 17:08Speaker 5: Unless you're changing personnel, then that could slow it down sometimes.
- 17:13Speaker 2: Okay, Parker Washington, we're going to do the abbreviated version
- 17:15Speaker 2: and then get more into the details. But Parker Washington
- 17:17Speaker 2: comes up. You get a great kick. I mean, you
- 17:19Speaker 2: get a great touchdown to go ahead. Can't get the
- 17:22Speaker 2: extra point. Obviously, we know there's a backup snapper situation,
- 17:25Speaker 2: so that's part of the deal, but still frustrating. The
- 17:29Speaker 2: Eagles are able to get in field goal position and
- 17:33Speaker 2: get what we think is the game-winning field goal until
- 17:36Speaker 2: Nick Sirianni decides to tell his kicker to kick it inbounds,
- 17:40Speaker 2: gives Amir Abdul a chance. who makes a great return
- 17:43Speaker 2: across midfield, and then Cam Little comes in and wins
- 17:48Speaker 2: the day. I'm saying like eight different parts that we
- 17:50Speaker 2: could talk 20 minutes about, but it was chaos.
- 17:52Speaker 3: It was absolute chaos. I guess we probably have to
- 17:53Speaker 3: go to break it pretty soon, but we can't just
- 17:55Speaker 3: bypass that Parker Washington touchdown either. After the break, we
- 17:58Speaker 3: have to talk about that catch too because on fourth
- 18:02Speaker 3: down with a game on the line, your wide receiver
- 18:05Speaker 3: one made a wide receiver one type of play.
- 18:07Speaker 4: And the throw was pretty damn good too.
- 18:09Speaker 3: Of course, yeah.
- 18:10Speaker 5: But again, Sirianni botched. That's botching a game one-on-one is.
- 18:16Speaker 3: What he did.
- 18:16Speaker 4: But not just because of the kickoff.
- 18:18Speaker 5: You can go back, and we'll get more into this,
- 18:20Speaker 5: but you can go back to the whole sequence right
- 18:24Speaker 5: before the field goal. I mean, Jacksonville had one timeout. One.
- 18:29Speaker 3: Yes.
- 18:29Speaker 5: And they threw it twice, remember?
- 18:31Speaker 2: Instead of running it, yep. Mm-hmm. All right, there's a
- 18:34Speaker 2: lot to talk about today here on Jaguars Happy Hour.
- 18:36Speaker 2: When we come back, we will continue to do that.
- 18:39Speaker 2: This is the first hour of Jaguars Happy Hour brought
- 18:41Speaker 2: to you by Jet Home Loans. Welcome back into Jaguars
- 18:55Speaker 2: Happy Hour. We're going to talk a bit about our
- 18:57Speaker 2: player of the game, brought to you by Publix, where
- 19:00Speaker 2: shopping is a pleasure. And we might have to, we're
- 19:03Speaker 2: going to have to vote on this because I don't
- 19:04Speaker 2: even know. Is it Devon Hamilton, your nose tackle slash
- 19:08Speaker 2: long snapper? Is it Logan Cook jumping up and doing
- 19:10Speaker 2: acrobatics to hold the ball? Cam Little with your game winner,
- 19:13Speaker 2: Parker Washington, with two massive touchdowns. The reason you won
- 19:17Speaker 2: the game.
- 19:17Speaker 4: It's got to be Parker Washington.
- 19:18Speaker 2: Parker for you.
- 19:20Speaker 4: Yeah, it has to be.
- 19:22Speaker 3: I don't understand, Pete. That catch, and it was the
- 19:25Speaker 3: only game going on, granted it was in the morning, right?
- 19:28Speaker 3: But how I haven't seen that catch everywhere is beyond me.
- 19:31Speaker 3: I've seen Christian Watson more than I've seen Parker Washington.
- 19:33Speaker 3: I get that Christian Watson was impressive as well. But
- 19:35Speaker 3: I remember when Odell Beckham Jr. had his catch, and
- 19:40Speaker 3: then the next day kids were mimicking it and everything.
- 19:44Speaker 3: My son was just like, yeah, that was a good catch.
- 19:46Speaker 3: He caught it one hand on fourth down to help
- 19:49Speaker 3: win the game. And I get it gets overshadowed because
- 19:51Speaker 3: of the Cam Little kick, but this is unreal.
- 19:55Speaker 2: I think we're spoiled, it's Parker.
- 19:56Speaker 3: It really is.
- 19:57Speaker 4: It's a great catch. It's a great throw.
- 20:00Speaker 5: It's big time, you know, when you take a chance
- 20:07Speaker 5: like that, it's really puts things on the line.
- 20:10Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
- 20:11Speaker 5: It's guts because you don't get that. You got a
- 20:13Speaker 5: whole different outcome. Maybe you're giving them ball right there.
- 20:17Speaker 5: So it's a fantastic catch. And the kid is playing
- 20:20Speaker 5: out of his mind. You know, he's getting paid. And
- 20:23Speaker 5: every week it seems like the price goes up.
- 20:26Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 20:26Speaker 5: If it already wasn't high enough, it's pretty damn high
- 20:29Speaker 5: right now.
- 20:30Speaker 3: And this is the thing. I mean, you can look
- 20:32Speaker 3: at the stats and, and the yardage and everything and
- 20:35Speaker 3: the targets per game. But what you can't deny is
- 20:39Speaker 3: that when the game is on the line, Trevor's looking
- 20:41Speaker 3: one way and one way only. And we've seen this
- 20:43Speaker 3: a couple of times now. And I don't know if
- 20:46Speaker 3: that's what's going to get you over the top in
- 20:48Speaker 3: terms of a contract or whatever. But like that, that
- 20:50Speaker 3: to me is a deciding factor. And once again, I
- 20:53Speaker 3: think with going into this season, it was OK. Well,
- 20:56Speaker 3: do you want to give him this money and everything? OK,
- 20:57Speaker 3: we not paid Brian Thomas Jr.
- 20:59Speaker 2: Now.
- 21:00Speaker 3: And I hate to say it, but, like, I think
- 21:02Speaker 3: after what we've seen with Josh Cameron, we're not even
- 21:04Speaker 3: really concerned what happens to Brian Thomas Jr. going forward. Like,
- 21:07Speaker 3: now it's the Parker Washington show, and we're intrigued what
- 21:09Speaker 3: Josh Cameron's been able to do so far.
- 21:12Speaker 5: Correct.
- 21:13Speaker 4: Look, Brian Thomas Jr.
- 21:14Speaker 5: Has done nothing to warrant anything in the future. So,
- 21:18Speaker 5: you know, Cameron is starting to make plays, and we've
- 21:21Speaker 5: seen that consistently now. And so the only difference between,
- 21:25Speaker 5: you know, Cameron doesn't run that well.
- 21:29Speaker 2: They're different skills. And Thomas does. Yeah.
- 21:32Speaker 3: But, I mean, Pete, and we say it every single week, right?
- 21:34Speaker 3: It's the speed of Brian Thomas Jr. It's the deep
- 21:37Speaker 3: threat of Brian Thomas Jr. Teams are respecting it. And granted,
- 21:40Speaker 3: I'm sure the reason why the middle of the field
- 21:42Speaker 3: is open is still because of Brian Thomas Jr. and
- 21:45Speaker 3: teams respecting him. But I think at some point you
- 21:47Speaker 3: have to ask the question of, are you more of
- 21:50Speaker 3: a lethal offense with a guy like Josh Cameron who
- 21:53Speaker 3: can just run slants, get the ball in space, and
- 21:55Speaker 3: then all of a sudden he can lower his shoulder
- 21:56Speaker 3: and get you an extra 10 yards?
- 21:58Speaker 5: Well, I will say this. On the play that Trevor
- 22:02Speaker 5: got picked off on, if he doesn't get hit, that's
- 22:06Speaker 5: a touchdown.
- 22:07Speaker 4: He'll throw it to the corner.
- 22:08Speaker 5: He runs under. He beat Quinion Mitchell on that play.
- 22:11Speaker 5: He was trailing him. So if Trevor doesn't get hit,
- 22:14Speaker 5: we're sitting here saying, oh, well, look at the big
- 22:16Speaker 5: play from Brian Thomas because it probably would have been
- 22:18Speaker 5: a touchdown. That's why people say, well, maybe they should
- 22:23Speaker 5: trade him at the trade deadline.
- 22:25Speaker 4: I'm not trading him.
- 22:27Speaker 5: Now, if I can get max crosby and for brian
- 22:31Speaker 5: thomas jr and a first round pick or something or
- 22:33Speaker 5: a second round pick i'd consider that considering the way
- 22:35Speaker 5: they rushed the passer.
- 22:36Speaker 3: Pete let me ask you this do you think he
- 22:38Speaker 3: would warrant more than marvin harrison jr.
- 22:41Speaker 4: I think he'd warrant about the same okay probably.
- 22:43Speaker 5: Yeah you're not going to get a one for him
- 22:46Speaker 5: so if you got a two for him maybe i
- 22:49Speaker 5: mean there's some receiver needy teams the chiefs the bills,
- 22:54Speaker 5: but then you're trading a guy to somebody in the
- 22:57Speaker 5: conference that could take you down later on. So you're
- 22:59Speaker 5: risking that part of it. So, and we'll get into
- 23:03Speaker 5: the pass rush because it's a problem. I don't care
- 23:05Speaker 5: what they say. They can talk it up all they want.
- 23:07Speaker 5: They can point to their sack numbers and everything else,
- 23:10Speaker 5: but that's a problem.
- 23:13Speaker 2: Pete, when we got into the nitty gritty at the
- 23:15Speaker 2: end there, when, you know, the Eagles are about to
- 23:19Speaker 2: get the field goal when you're talking about when they,
- 23:22Speaker 2: I think it was to Goddard, they get across, right?
- 23:24Speaker 2: So they're well in field goal range and then they
- 23:26Speaker 2: throw it back to back.
- 23:28Speaker 5: This is part of it. And Jacksonville had one time out, right?
- 23:31Speaker 5: They had one time out. Why would you throw that
- 23:35Speaker 5: first off?
- 23:37Speaker 3: Okay.
- 23:37Speaker 5: Lemon went out of bounds if I'm not mistaken.
- 23:39Speaker 4: On the one play.
- 23:41Speaker 1: Yes.
- 23:42Speaker 2: Pushed out of bounds.
- 23:44Speaker 5: That's part of the problem. So the time he stopped
- 23:47Speaker 5: the clock there, but why are you throwing it?
- 23:51Speaker 4: They got the first down at the 34.
- 23:54Speaker 5: Is that right?
- 23:57Speaker 2: It was 34. Yeah. It was a 48 airfield goal.
- 24:04Speaker 2: They ended up kicking.
- 24:05Speaker 5: But I mean, when Goddard caught the ball, it was
- 24:07Speaker 5: at the 34.
- 24:08Speaker 2: Yes. It was at the 34 Jacksonville's 34.
- 24:09Speaker 5: Okay. So you're at, if you run it twice or
- 24:12Speaker 5: run it once, You get down, you get three or
- 24:15Speaker 5: four more yards. That's a short field goal by NFL standards.
- 24:19Speaker 2: Right, and there was 25 seconds on the clock at
- 24:20Speaker 2: that point.
- 24:20Speaker 5: So why not take the clock all the way down?
- 24:23Speaker 4: There's going to be no more possessions.
- 24:25Speaker 5: You take the clock all the way down to two
- 24:30Speaker 5: and then kick the field goal.
- 24:31Speaker 3: Why would you do that? That's not even an analytical thing.
- 24:34Speaker 3: That's just a malpractice of your coaching. It's not thinking ahead.
- 24:39Speaker 3: There's no analytics involved.
- 24:40Speaker 5: Yeah, you make it so that kick wins the game
- 24:43Speaker 5: or loses the game.
- 24:44Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly.
- 24:45Speaker 5: That's basically what you do. Why even think about kicking off?
- 24:48Speaker 5: Why even risk kicking off? So he botched it with
- 24:52Speaker 5: the time management before the timeout that Jacksonville called to
- 24:57Speaker 5: leave eight seconds on the clock. And then he botched
- 25:01Speaker 5: it even worse. We're not kicking a thing into... Where
- 25:05Speaker 5: do you kick that to? Paris? I mean, what's the next.
- 25:07Speaker 4: Closest you kick it out of the air in the stadium?
- 25:09Speaker 5: I mean, when I saw that, I go, what a moron. Yeah.
- 25:14Speaker 5: And you know what?
- 25:15Speaker 2: Well.
- 25:16Speaker 3: It was almost.
- 25:17Speaker 5: He almost got away with it because if Abdullah keeps
- 25:19Speaker 5: running one more second, the game's over anyways.
- 25:22Speaker 2: True.
- 25:22Speaker 5: And he wasn't going to score.
- 25:24Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, listen, and, like, that's part of it. Like,
- 25:27Speaker 3: I'm much more concerned about not running the clock down,
- 25:30Speaker 3: kicking the field goal, and the game's over. You could
- 25:33Speaker 3: say you kick it out of bounds, but then the
- 25:35Speaker 3: Jaguars have how much time left to get essentially what?
- 25:38Speaker 2: Eight seconds.
- 25:39Speaker 3: Okay, eight seconds. Yeah.
- 25:41Speaker 5: If it was 15 seconds, you're right. But eight seconds,
- 25:44Speaker 5: you put the ball on the 35.
- 25:46Speaker 3: What happens?
- 25:47Speaker 5: If they complete a pass for 25 yards to the
- 25:51Speaker 5: middle of the field, you're not getting another playoff.
- 25:53Speaker 4: So you play the sidelines. You know that defense.
- 25:55Speaker 5: You play the sidelines.
- 25:56Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 25:57Speaker 2: And then you got to do a little trick play
- 25:59Speaker 2: Hail Mary something or other. Right.
- 26:00Speaker 5: That's all you're getting out of that. And this way
- 26:03Speaker 5: you kick off to him. He could always rip it
- 26:05Speaker 5: like he did.
- 26:08Speaker 2: I was still stressed, though, especially after they missed the
- 26:11Speaker 2: point after I was like.
- 26:13Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 26:14Speaker 4: Hey, that's a big boy field goal right there with it.
- 26:17Speaker 2: And I think that's where credit is due to because
- 26:19Speaker 2: we've talked about. Some of the kicks he's missed have
- 26:22Speaker 2: been more of a mental thing in more clutch positions
- 26:25Speaker 2: of a game or where a kick really mattered, you know,
- 26:27Speaker 2: the one in the playoff game as well. And that
- 26:29Speaker 2: was about as big as it gets to walk off
- 26:31Speaker 2: win in London for him. I know he's a soccer
- 26:35Speaker 2: guy like yourself, so that was huge for him and
- 26:37Speaker 2: all the soccer celebration after. But credit where credit is
- 26:41Speaker 2: due to have the mental fortitude in that kind of
- 26:43Speaker 2: moment with your backup long snapper to go out there.
- 26:46Speaker 4: Well, this is the miss earlier in the game.
- 26:49Speaker 5: And that was not on him. That's on the snap.
- 26:52Speaker 5: I mean, it was so high. and logan cook had
- 26:55Speaker 5: a hard time getting it down so that one wasn't
- 26:58Speaker 5: on him but the kick that he made i mean
- 27:02Speaker 5: when he makes that kick with the backup snapper you're
- 27:05Speaker 5: sitting there saying wow because i didn't think he was
- 27:08Speaker 5: going to make it i'll be honest with you i
- 27:09Speaker 5: did not think he was going to.
- 27:10Speaker 3: See and granted that they tried to ice him too
- 27:13Speaker 3: right they called the time out but like i wonder
- 27:15Speaker 3: in that situation and once again you can ask we'll
- 27:17Speaker 3: have to ask him ourselves Like, he didn't really have
- 27:19Speaker 3: time to prep for it. Because, like, I didn't see
- 27:22Speaker 3: Abdullah taking it like he did. You know, I figured
- 27:24Speaker 3: we were going to kick it to him. I mean,
- 27:25Speaker 3: we all thought he was going to go out of bounds,
- 27:26Speaker 3: first of all.
- 27:27Speaker 2: Right?
- 27:27Speaker 5: By the way, right here on camera, we have the return.
- 27:31Speaker 5: It was so well blocked.
- 27:33Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and I think credit to Heath Farwell. We
- 27:36Speaker 2: always give credit to him because he's one of the
- 27:39Speaker 2: best coaches in the game, special teams coordinator Heath Farwell.
- 27:42Speaker 2: They have this play written in where it's kind of
- 27:44Speaker 2: that running start for Abdullah Wright and the way that
- 27:46Speaker 2: they block it out for this to open up on
- 27:49Speaker 2: the side.
- 27:49Speaker 5: Look at the double.
- 27:50Speaker 4: See the double right there? Yeah, the double was good too.
- 27:51Speaker 2: Quentin Morris and then Josh Cameron coming over as well
- 27:54Speaker 2: and goes down with two slash one seconds left.
- 27:58Speaker 5: Yeah. By the way, if he goes to the 30...
- 28:02Speaker 5: he's not scoring and they don't get the key to
- 28:04Speaker 5: go off. And here's the field goal. Look, I mean,
- 28:06Speaker 5: that's incredible. And he, and it was good by what?
- 28:12Speaker 5: Five more yards.
- 28:13Speaker 2: He knew as soon as he kicked it.
- 28:14Speaker 3: And I was screaming too. Cause I don't know if
- 28:17Speaker 3: you saw it in the 22. So when they called
- 28:19Speaker 3: the timeout to ice him, did Hamilton snap at the
- 28:21Speaker 3: practice it or not?
- 28:22Speaker 2: He snapped it.
- 28:23Speaker 4: It was perfect.
- 28:24Speaker 3: Cohen talked after the game.
- 28:25Speaker 2: And that was his best snap of the day.
- 28:26Speaker 3: It wasn't high.
- 28:27Speaker 2: It was perfectly online.
- 28:29Speaker 3: I didn't see that. And I'm like, man, if you're
- 28:30Speaker 3: going to ice, you at least get a practice rep.
- 28:32Speaker 3: And then obviously the TV broadcast cut out, so we
- 28:35Speaker 3: couldn't tell. I'm like, man, I hope you got that
- 28:36Speaker 3: practice one in. Yeah, OK.
- 28:38Speaker 4: Look at Liam Cohen. That was funny.
- 28:39Speaker 2: I mean, come on. That was a great bailout. How
- 28:41Speaker 2: could you not be happy? After all of that, that
- 28:44Speaker 2: taxing game, you're watching your stress, mistakes, penalties, just mental errors.
- 28:50Speaker 2: And then, oh, he still won. Yeah.
- 28:53Speaker 5: Yeah, and by the way, he made his fair share
- 28:57Speaker 5: of them, too.
- 28:57Speaker 2: He did. We will keep it real about coaching, including
- 29:01Speaker 2: the Jaguars, about some interesting decisions around the NFL. We're
- 29:05Speaker 2: going to try and stay on track here today, as
- 29:08Speaker 2: we have a lot to talk about. And we've already
- 29:10Speaker 2: talked on some of it, but stay with us here
- 29:12Speaker 2: on Jaguars Happy Hour, presented by Jet Home Loans. Welcome
- 29:26Speaker 2: back into Jaguars Happy Hour. Time now to ask co-pilots
- 29:29Speaker 2: a question because this was quite the finish. So has
- 29:33Speaker 2: there ever been an NFL game with two go ahead
- 29:37Speaker 2: scores in the final 10 seconds? I stole this from ESPN,
- 29:40Speaker 2: of course, but yes, it's extraordinarily rare. But in fact,
- 29:44Speaker 2: the Jaguars Eagle game on Sunday appears to be the
- 29:47Speaker 2: very specific part of NFL history where it's the first
- 29:50Speaker 2: game in the Super Bowl era. So does that piece
- 29:53Speaker 2: 66 to feature two go ahead field goals in the
- 29:56Speaker 2: final 10 seconds of regulation?
- 29:59Speaker 4: It's incredible. It really is.
- 30:02Speaker 5: If you weren't sitting there watching it the way it finished,
- 30:05Speaker 5: you wouldn't believe it all the way.
- 30:08Speaker 2: I had several people texting me like, oh, too bad
- 30:10Speaker 2: about the game. And I'm like, you didn't watch it. Well,
- 30:13Speaker 2: because obviously like the one o'clocks were coming on. So
- 30:15Speaker 2: I don't think everybody stayed with it till the end.
- 30:17Speaker 2: If that wasn't the game they're watching. I was like,
- 30:18Speaker 2: you didn't watch it till the end.
- 30:20Speaker 5: By the way, that went into the one o'clocks because
- 30:23Speaker 5: I had to do a post game. We have to
- 30:25Speaker 5: do post game of the early games before. as the
- 30:28Speaker 5: other games are starting. So I, by the time I
- 30:30Speaker 5: got off set, it was one 30. So I knew
- 30:32Speaker 5: it was late.
- 30:33Speaker 2: It's probably all the penalties slowing us down right off
- 30:36Speaker 2: the rip and everything else.
- 30:38Speaker 4: It was, it was a, it was tough to watch.
- 30:41Speaker 4: I'll be honest with you.
- 30:42Speaker 2: It wasn't fun. I didn't feel good after that. Like,
- 30:44Speaker 2: even though they won, I was like, that's cool. But
- 30:46Speaker 2: I still felt like physically drained from watching it.
- 30:51Speaker 5: Because you get, when you're watching, and I do it,
- 30:54Speaker 5: I watch every game on Sunday.
- 30:55Speaker 3: We have every game on.
- 30:56Speaker 4: And I sit there and I watch it.
- 30:57Speaker 5: I go, oh, my God, how sloppy they are and
- 31:00Speaker 5: how stupid they are and how dumb the coach is
- 31:02Speaker 5: and how smart this guy is.
- 31:04Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 31:05Speaker 5: Holding penalty and this, and it's just sloppy football. And
- 31:07Speaker 5: the officiating isn't helping it at all.
- 31:09Speaker 3: But, Pete, and once again, like, far be it for
- 31:12Speaker 3: me to try to find a silver lining through all
- 31:14Speaker 3: the cloudiness of what that London game was. But in
- 31:17Speaker 3: the past, the Jaguars lose that game. and we're spending
- 31:20Speaker 3: the entire duration of the show questioning every single decision
- 31:23Speaker 3: that was made, questioning personnel, all that stuff. We're not
- 31:25Speaker 3: doing it. Like, they found a way to win. And, yeah, granted,
- 31:29Speaker 3: going forward, it has to get cleaned up. Like, I
- 31:31Speaker 3: think we can start asking the question now, is this
- 31:33Speaker 3: who they are in terms of penalties? Because I thought
- 31:37Speaker 3: Cincinnati was the anomaly, right? And once again, like, yeah,
- 31:40Speaker 3: some of these are questionable and everything, but the pre-snap penalties,
- 31:44Speaker 3: some of the holding penalties– like that, that can't define
- 31:48Speaker 3: your game. Like they, they don't have the genetic makeup
- 31:51Speaker 3: right now to overcome that weekend and week out. Yeah.
- 31:54Speaker 5: And I don't know if anybody does, to be honest
- 31:56Speaker 5: with you. I mean, it's, that's tough. I mean, anytime
- 31:59Speaker 5: you're in third and long all the time or, you know,
- 32:02Speaker 5: behind the chains, it's tough to come out from underneath that.
- 32:04Speaker 5: I don't care how good you are. It's really tough
- 32:07Speaker 5: when your offensive line isn't playing well. So, and I
- 32:10Speaker 5: think a lot of those grabs.
- 32:11Speaker 3: And holds and going for whatever reason, the rep thinks
- 32:14Speaker 3: that that's a holding thing. like those, those can't happen.
- 32:17Speaker 3: And what we're starting to see, and it's not just
- 32:19Speaker 3: a Jacksonville Jaguars, you know, Eagles problem, Kyle, like this is,
- 32:23Speaker 3: this is like, I feel like a pandemic going around
- 32:24Speaker 3: the league. And once I opened the show with this,
- 32:27Speaker 3: I don't know how we got to this point.
- 32:29Speaker 2: We talked about it some last week, because while the
- 32:32Speaker 2: Jaguars were a part of that really heavily penalized game,
- 32:35Speaker 2: it's across the league. And we had the two, the
- 32:37Speaker 2: two refs that got suspended because of, you know, kind
- 32:40Speaker 2: of involving themselves in play and freaking out on the players. And,
- 32:43Speaker 2: I'm hoping that at some point they'll reel it back
- 32:46Speaker 2: in a little bit, but it's just, it's a hard
- 32:47Speaker 2: product to watch and I'm sure it's frustrating playing in
- 32:49Speaker 2: it as well.
- 32:50Speaker 3: No, it's definitely frustrating playing in it. And one would
- 32:52Speaker 3: hope that it can get cleaned up a little bit
- 32:54Speaker 3: with this Houston game because Houston's going to bring a
- 32:56Speaker 3: defensive line to that. That's going to generate some pressure.
- 32:59Speaker 3: And I guess, you know, circling back now to this
- 33:02Speaker 3: Jaguars offensive line, more than likely there hasn't been an
- 33:05Speaker 3: announcement yet, but we do know Anton Harrison is injured.
- 33:08Speaker 3: He's got a knee injury and, I mean, Kai, what
- 33:11Speaker 3: does that look like now?
- 33:12Speaker 2: Right.
- 33:12Speaker 3: Because I just watched Cole Van Lannen probably have his
- 33:16Speaker 3: worst game. I watched Walker Little. And once again, I
- 33:19Speaker 3: get it wasn't a big sample size, but I think
- 33:21Speaker 3: he's surrounded a pressure, you know, against the Eagles. Like,
- 33:26Speaker 3: is the plan now? Do you have Walker Little on
- 33:28Speaker 3: the left? Cole Van Lannen on the right? Do you
- 33:30Speaker 3: move Cole Van Lannen to the left? Because he was
- 33:33Speaker 3: pretty dominant last year. Like what? What's the plan now?
- 33:37Speaker 2: I would assume they want to move as little as possible, right?
- 33:39Speaker 2: When there's an injury on O-line, they always say, don't
- 33:42Speaker 2: upset everybody and put everybody in a new place. Let's
- 33:44Speaker 2: just work on the one issue. We don't know yet
- 33:47Speaker 2: if it'll be a long-term injury. Anton Harrison had a
- 33:49Speaker 2: knee injury in the game against the Eagles. They had
- 33:52Speaker 2: an MRI done. We don't have the results back yet.
- 33:53Speaker 2: I imagine we'll hear something later in the week about that.
- 33:56Speaker 2: So if it's a long-term injury... walker little someone they
- 33:59Speaker 2: plugged and played everywhere as well as colvin landon i
- 34:01Speaker 2: guess but maybe just put a minute left and kind
- 34:03Speaker 2: of go with that but also it's this has now
- 34:06Speaker 2: become a couple weeks in a row where your o-line
- 34:10Speaker 2: maybe looked okay and then now it looks like this
- 34:13Speaker 2: might be an issue going forward and yes trevor is
- 34:15Speaker 2: much more confident and comfortable in the offense but If
- 34:18Speaker 2: you can't protect your quarterback, you're not going to win
- 34:20Speaker 2: football games consistently.
- 34:21Speaker 3: Well, and let me ask you this. And Pete, I
- 34:22Speaker 3: feel like has been at the forefront. Hopefully we'll get
- 34:24Speaker 3: him back. Cause I'd love to hear his thoughts about it.
- 34:26Speaker 3: He's been at the forefront of campaigning for a more
- 34:28Speaker 3: defensive line help. Right. And I think we can all
- 34:31Speaker 3: agree like, yeah, you know, there is some pressure rate,
- 34:34Speaker 3: but as far as getting the quarterback down, it's not
- 34:37Speaker 3: quite there. Should we be talking once again, knocking on,
- 34:39Speaker 3: hopefully it's not a serious injury, but the way that
- 34:41Speaker 3: Anton Harrison went off the field, it leads to believe
- 34:44Speaker 3: he might be out for a couple of weeks. Do
- 34:46Speaker 3: we need to have a conversation of do you need
- 34:47Speaker 3: to focus more on the offensive line in terms of
- 34:50Speaker 3: maybe finding another suitable person, or are you happy with
- 34:53Speaker 3: what they have right now there?
- 34:55Speaker 2: I'm happy to have the conversation, but I think if
- 34:57Speaker 2: a change is going to be made, it's going to
- 34:58Speaker 2: be an internal change because Pete's leading the charge on it.
- 35:04Speaker 2: Jonah Monheim at center, he's also played some guards, so
- 35:07Speaker 2: there's that. Wyatt Milam, who they use at times in
- 35:10Speaker 2: special teams and in jumbo packages. could come in possibly
- 35:13Speaker 2: at a right guard position. So there are people on
- 35:16Speaker 2: your roster that are younger and might have a little
- 35:18Speaker 2: more push. If you're trying to be a more physical team,
- 35:20Speaker 2: that's what they want to be. But they don't have
- 35:22Speaker 2: a ton of that in the center right now. Obviously,
- 35:25Speaker 2: Manuel Pregnan's a rookie. He's going to have games.
- 35:27Speaker 3: And you have to keep him in.
- 35:28Speaker 2: And look what he's going up against. I'm not going to.
- 35:30Speaker 2: You're going up and you're dealing with that all day. Like,
- 35:33Speaker 2: more power to you.
- 35:34Speaker 3: Well, and let's not lie, because you're going to have
- 35:36Speaker 3: some challenges with, I think, a pretty good Steelers defensive
- 35:39Speaker 3: front later on in the year. You're going to see
- 35:41Speaker 3: Jeffrey Simmons twice, who is one of the best three techniques.
- 35:44Speaker 3: And they have a good defensive line in their own right.
- 35:46Speaker 3: So I don't know if you wait until the bye
- 35:49Speaker 3: to make some changes. I mean, you don't want to
- 35:50Speaker 3: disrupt it right now, especially with Anton Harrison not knowing
- 35:53Speaker 3: how long he's going to be out for. Hopefully not
- 35:54Speaker 3: too long, knock on wood. But I think those are
- 35:57Speaker 3: some conversations that eventually have to be had because it's
- 36:01Speaker 3: the NFL. You're going to go against good defensive players
- 36:04Speaker 3: on that line week in and week out, and you're
- 36:06Speaker 3: getting ready to go against the Tennessee Titans twice who
- 36:09Speaker 3: they have one of the best in Jeffrey Simmons. And
- 36:10Speaker 3: we saw what one guy can do against you and
- 36:13Speaker 3: really change the game around.
- 36:14Speaker 2: Fully game-wrecked. Everything.
- 36:16Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 36:16Speaker 2: All right. We're going to work on getting Pete back.
- 36:19Speaker 2: We will take a quick break and then we will
- 36:22Speaker 2: try to get Pete and answer some of your fan questions.
- 36:25Speaker 2: There were a lot of really good ones. Austin and
- 36:27Speaker 2: I will answer what we can and then we'll get
- 36:28Speaker 2: Pete's wisdom for you later on in the show. This
- 36:31Speaker 2: is Jaguars Happy Hour brought to you by Jet Home Loans.
- 36:46Speaker 2: carrying top 10 wide receiver i mean.
- 36:48Speaker 3: Listen kai we're talking about you know like the interior
- 36:50Speaker 3: do you replace anybody going forward you know after the
- 36:53Speaker 3: bye week i mean do you put devon hamilton at
- 36:54Speaker 3: center and i mean is he about to change the
- 36:57Speaker 3: game with his snapping prowess i mean the guy plays
- 37:00Speaker 3: the reckless abandonment put him at center and see what
- 37:02Speaker 3: happens on a fourth.
- 37:02Speaker 2: And one Gosh. And well, also looking at what he
- 37:05Speaker 2: allowed for rushing yards. I mean, this is the second
- 37:07Speaker 2: straight week that their opponents have had less than 30
- 37:09Speaker 2: rushing yards, I think. So that's insane.
- 37:11Speaker 3: And that's something I want to get into here in
- 37:12Speaker 3: a little bit. Remind me of those numbers again, please.
- 37:14Speaker 3: But to answer the question, I mean, you know, it's
- 37:16Speaker 3: going to be Parker Washington simply because of the position
- 37:20Speaker 3: and what that position is making. Not to say I
- 37:23Speaker 3: feel like you get Devon Hamilton done first because to
- 37:24Speaker 3: me it's an easier contract. With Parker Washington, it's going
- 37:27Speaker 3: to come bonuses, escalators, in terms of performance player bonuses.
- 37:34Speaker 3: With Devon Hamilton, we're going to say, hey, man, go
- 37:36Speaker 3: stop the run. You do that, here's your paycheck. There's
- 37:39Speaker 3: not a lot of bonuses to get if you're Devon Hamilton.
- 37:42Speaker 3: So a much easier contract, much easier language. So I
- 37:45Speaker 3: would say it's definitely going to be Parker Washington making
- 37:48Speaker 3: more money, but I hope Devon Hamilton gets done sooner.
- 37:52Speaker 2: How high is the number going to go for Parker?
- 37:54Speaker 2: Because he's betting on himself. We don't know what the
- 37:57Speaker 2: actual number discussions were, but we see some of the comps,
- 38:01Speaker 2: if you will. Sure. Is it 30?
- 38:02Speaker 3: Is it more? So it's wild how I thought the
- 38:06Speaker 3: comp was going to be the Michael Wilson contract, which
- 38:08Speaker 3: was 25. That was fun for a while. It lasted.
- 38:13Speaker 3: And I'm not even exaggerating. I think we're to Chris
- 38:16Speaker 3: Olave numbers. Like, I think we're to 30, 31. I mean, like,
- 38:20Speaker 3: you see what Chris Olave does for New Orleans, right?
- 38:23Speaker 3: He's their true one receiver. I thought this was going
- 38:26Speaker 3: to look much more like, okay, well, Parker's going to
- 38:27Speaker 3: have a great day, and then maybe the next weekend
- 38:29Speaker 3: it'll be Jacoby Myers the next weekend. No, like, Parker
- 38:32Speaker 3: is the go-to guy. So he essentially is a Chris Olave,
- 38:36Speaker 3: I feel like, for the Jaguars. So I think you're
- 38:38Speaker 3: in the Chris Olave range now.
- 38:40Speaker 2: And it's not my money, so I'm here to say
- 38:43Speaker 2: spend it for sure. I don't know how it affects
- 38:45Speaker 2: the cap going forward. You can always find a way.
- 38:47Speaker 2: And this team just doesn't function without Parker Washington anymore.
- 38:50Speaker 2: I know we talk about spreading the ball around, but
- 38:52Speaker 2: really it doesn't.
- 38:53Speaker 3: Well, and Kai, I put this on Twitter. If we
- 38:55Speaker 3: have to, as a community, get together and donate plasma
- 38:58Speaker 3: as an entire community, entire city, I don't know, a
- 39:00Speaker 3: million people donating plasma, I'm sure we can probably help
- 39:04Speaker 3: the contract out a little bit.
- 39:06Speaker 2: Send the collection plate out. Pete, do we have you back? Yeah,
- 39:08Speaker 2: I'm here.
- 39:09Speaker 5: I'm here.
- 39:10Speaker 2: We're answering some fan questions. We're working through some stuff.
- 39:12Speaker 3: Working through some stuff. Pete didn't have his phone on silent.
- 39:15Speaker 3: Got a call, and here we are.
- 39:16Speaker 2: We're not blaming Pete this time.
- 39:17Speaker 3: Okay, sorry.
- 39:18Speaker 2: We're not blaming Pete this time. Next one is about
- 39:20Speaker 2: the penalties. How do we clean them up? These are
- 39:22Speaker 2: the specific, the pre-snap ones. Also, never seen so many
- 39:25Speaker 2: holds on runs between the tackles before, Pete.
- 39:29Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 39:29Speaker 5: And again, the pre-snaps stuff, get the play call in quicker.
- 39:33Speaker 5: I think that matters now as far as flinching and.
- 39:37Speaker 4: And those, you know, illegal procedures and not being set.
- 39:39Speaker 5: That's on details. So, you know, focus on the details
- 39:42Speaker 5: this week. I click, I think you clean all that
- 39:44Speaker 5: stuff up. The holds, uh, that's just being out of
- 39:47Speaker 5: position and, and, You know, for example, Pregnant's hold, debatable,
- 39:54Speaker 5: the first one, I thought. I thought that one was debatable.
- 39:56Speaker 5: The one when he pulled out, that.
- 39:58Speaker 4: Was a hold.
- 39:59Speaker 5: And he didn't need to do it. He just panicked
- 40:02Speaker 5: in the moment. And I think some of his stuff,
- 40:04Speaker 5: because that wasn't one of his better games, I think
- 40:07Speaker 5: some of his stuff was panicking. I think some of
- 40:09Speaker 5: the other stuff was they were getting dominated up front.
- 40:12Speaker 4: I mean, they were getting pushed around. And they got
- 40:15Speaker 4: to be better, you know?
- 40:17Speaker 5: And I keep saying... You know what I keep saying?
- 40:20Speaker 5: Changes might be a coming sooner than later.
- 40:22Speaker 4: Maybe they should be coming.
- 40:25Speaker 2: Pete, what do you, we talked a little bit when
- 40:27Speaker 2: we launched for a sec, but what do you think
- 40:28Speaker 2: they should do with if Anton's out for an extended
- 40:31Speaker 2: amount of time? I know you've been advocating for some
- 40:33Speaker 2: O-line changes. Those are more interior. Do you keep Walker
- 40:36Speaker 2: at left? Would you move some other people around? Cause
- 40:38Speaker 2: Cole seems to be having some trouble on the right.
- 40:42Speaker 5: I don't think Cole's all the way back to be
- 40:44Speaker 5: honest with you.
- 40:44Speaker 4: I don't think he's, you know, again, you come off.
- 40:47Speaker 5: A major injury like that and you come back and
- 40:52Speaker 5: you say you're back, but he doesn't look like the
- 40:55Speaker 5: same player he was a year ago. So, and I'll
- 40:58Speaker 5: give you an example, Tucker craft who plays tight end
- 41:01Speaker 5: in green Bay. It took him until yesterday for him
- 41:05Speaker 5: to actually start looking like himself again.
- 41:07Speaker 4: And so I don't think Colvin land is back where
- 41:10Speaker 4: he was.
- 41:11Speaker 5: Would I move Colvin land in the left tackle play
- 41:13Speaker 5: Walker little at right tackle. Maybe I would consider that,
- 41:18Speaker 5: but I don't know. Cole Van Lannan's all the way
- 41:22Speaker 5: back yet. So, and by the way, in Washington tape,
- 41:25Speaker 5: Walker was actually pretty good in pass protection when he
- 41:27Speaker 5: went in on Sunday. Now the run game, not as good,
- 41:30Speaker 5: but he was pretty good in pass protection. So I
- 41:32Speaker 5: don't know how I would play that. If, if, if
- 41:34Speaker 5: Van Lannan was all the way back, I'd probably play
- 41:36Speaker 5: him at left tackle, but I don't know if.
- 41:38Speaker 4: He's all the way back.
- 41:39Speaker 3: And pete we kind of talked about a little bit
- 41:41Speaker 3: too i mean obviously you know and you've been kind
- 41:44Speaker 3: of campaigning this and i think a lot of people
- 41:45Speaker 3: agree with you where do you look at you know
- 41:48Speaker 3: adding to the pass rush a little bit is there
- 41:50Speaker 3: anything out there in terms of the offensive line now
- 41:52Speaker 3: that scares you because we don't know the extent of
- 41:54Speaker 3: the anton harrison injury granted the way that he went
- 41:57Speaker 3: off one would assume that it's at least going to
- 41:59Speaker 3: be a couple weeks like do you think there's any
- 42:01Speaker 3: way that they maybe look at you know a possible
- 42:04Speaker 3: trade or even i guess the waiver wire in terms
- 42:07Speaker 3: of a possible tackle or interior to help the offensive
- 42:09Speaker 3: line a little bit. Yeah.
- 42:11Speaker 5: I don't, it's so hard to find those guys because
- 42:15Speaker 5: you look at the, look at the Eagles line and
- 42:16Speaker 5: look what's playing you in the same situation with the
- 42:20Speaker 5: chargers to play in all kids and backups because of injuries.
- 42:25Speaker 5: So I don't, in fact, I think the Jaguars and
- 42:28Speaker 5: I can't believe I'm going to say this.
- 42:30Speaker 4: I think they're a little fortunate that they actually.
- 42:32Speaker 5: Have Walker little right now.
- 42:35Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
- 42:36Speaker 5: I mean, because the backup linemen in this league are awful.
- 42:41Speaker 5: The starting lines, for the most part, are awful. And
- 42:44Speaker 5: so if you have a guy like that that can
- 42:46Speaker 5: go in and play, I think it was smart that
- 42:48Speaker 5: they kept him. Because who would be the backup tackle now?
- 42:51Speaker 5: If he weren't in there, who would be the third tackle?
- 42:55Speaker 2: Milam, maybe?
- 42:58Speaker 4: And he's not played a lot of tackle.
- 43:01Speaker 3: Yeah, Milam, or do you move the guy from Baltimore?
- 43:04Speaker 3: What's the– Oh, McCary? No, Fulela.
- 43:07Speaker 2: Oh, Fulela.
- 43:08Speaker 3: Yeah, Fulela. He's a guard. Well, he's a guard, but
- 43:09Speaker 3: didn't he– yeah.
- 43:11Speaker 2: Has Cleveland played tackle? Would you kick him out?
- 43:14Speaker 4: He played tackle in the preseason.
- 43:15Speaker 5: Remember, he played right tackle.
- 43:16Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe kick him out.
- 43:17Speaker 6: I mean, he's having a hard enough– that guy's having
- 43:19Speaker 6: a hard enough time to guard.
- 43:20Speaker 2: Making me a tackle.
- 43:21Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 43:21Speaker 5: I would seriously– and I'm going to say it again,
- 43:24Speaker 5: and I looked at the grades for PFF, and I
- 43:26Speaker 5: couldn't believe it. You know, he was the top-rated lineman yesterday.
- 43:29Speaker 3: Who's that?
- 43:30Speaker 2: Who?
- 43:30Speaker 5: Who? Cleveland.
- 43:32Speaker 2: That's how bad of a day everyone had?
- 43:34Speaker 5: No, they graded him like he had a good game.
- 43:37Speaker 2: I'm not going to knock PFF because it's magic formulas
- 43:40Speaker 2: and no one actually knows what it is, but that's
- 43:42Speaker 2: what makes me question it. I have eyeballs. How is
- 43:45Speaker 2: that possible?
- 43:46Speaker 3: I thought he might have been the worst, honestly, yesterday.
- 43:48Speaker 3: I thought he was the worst.
- 43:48Speaker 2: What are their qualifiers for best?
- 43:53Speaker 5: After I watched the tape, before I looked at the
- 43:56Speaker 5: PFF grades, I would have graded it that The right
- 44:01Speaker 5: tackle and the left tackle were probably about the same.
- 44:05Speaker 5: They were one and two, not great. The left guard
- 44:08Speaker 5: had problems with the penalties and a couple other issues.
- 44:13Speaker 5: The center was okay at times, but you know what
- 44:16Speaker 5: I feel about the center. I think the center gets overpowered.
- 44:20Speaker 2: Again, I think they need to make changes. Is bye
- 44:25Speaker 2: week the time to do something like that?
- 44:27Speaker 5: You're not going to make a change when you're winning.
- 44:28Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 44:30Speaker 4: You know how coaches are.
- 44:32Speaker 5: But Monheim, what if you, would Monheim and Milam change
- 44:37Speaker 5: the offense if you put him in?
- 44:40Speaker 3: Well, here's the thing, Pete. I know, I know Monheim
- 44:43Speaker 3: would because we know he's going to bring the table. Milam.
- 44:47Speaker 2: It might change your play call.
- 44:48Speaker 3: It could change your play call. I mean, I keep
- 44:51Speaker 3: hearing like how good he is, but like, I haven't
- 44:52Speaker 3: seen enough footage to know, like, can he hold his own?
- 44:55Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know.
- 44:56Speaker 5: But he, he looks stronger and plays stronger, I think,
- 44:59Speaker 5: than Cleveland does.
- 45:00Speaker 4: I mean, Cleveland's more of a finesse offensive lineman.
- 45:03Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 45:04Speaker 5: Right?
- 45:04Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 45:05Speaker 5: And let's be real.
- 45:06Speaker 4: Cleveland's probably not going to be here after the year.
- 45:10Speaker 2: Yeah, because he's in a contract year as well.
- 45:12Speaker 3: And Patrick McCurry, we're not even– Well, I.
- 45:14Speaker 2: Haven't seen him back yet.
- 45:16Speaker 4: He's still on the IR technically.
- 45:17Speaker 5: He took retirement and took the money.
- 45:20Speaker 2: Yeah. All right. We got a lot more. We got
- 45:22Speaker 2: fan questions. We got a lot to catch up on.
- 45:24Speaker 2: We're back here getting ready for the second hour of
- 45:27Speaker 2: Jaguars Happy Hour on the Jaguars Digital Network. Welcome back
- 45:36Speaker 2: into the second hour of Jaguars Happy Hour. Kainani Stevens,
- 45:38Speaker 2: Austin Lane, Pete Prisco with you as we get ready
- 45:41Speaker 2: for the second hour of Jaguars Happy Hour presented by Mr.
- 45:43Speaker 2: Chubby's Wings before the game, after the game, and during
- 45:46Speaker 2: the game. Starting out with the opening drive for hour
- 45:48Speaker 2: two presented by Target Zero. Let's get everyone home safely.
- 45:52Speaker 2: Jaguars eek out that 1917 win with a very dramatic finish. Pete,
- 46:00Speaker 2: you got cut off a little bit earlier, so we'll
- 46:01Speaker 2: pick up with that when you're talking about additions on
- 46:04Speaker 2: the defense. who and what and what would that look
- 46:07Speaker 2: like and how can they get that? I mean, in
- 46:10Speaker 2: terms of the pass rush, I think we're past the
- 46:13Speaker 2: point of just saying be better. It might need an addition.
- 46:15Speaker 4: Oh, it needs an addition.
- 46:18Speaker 3: It needs an addition.
- 46:19Speaker 5: I mean, this is how many weeks do we come
- 46:21Speaker 5: here on Monday and we say they need to get somebody,
- 46:22Speaker 5: they need to rush the pass or better.
- 46:24Speaker 4: They need to do. And the ball came out a
- 46:25Speaker 4: little quick sometimes, but.
- 46:27Speaker 5: Yeah, Is anybody– and Hines Allen made some good plays,
- 46:31Speaker 5: but is anybody really sitting there– you're sitting there going, wow,
- 46:34Speaker 5: look at that pass rush.
- 46:36Speaker 4: I just don't see it. So you got to make
- 46:39Speaker 4: a move.
- 46:40Speaker 3: No, I hear you, Pete. I'm not saying, wow, look
- 46:42Speaker 3: at that pass rush, but like– I did a little
- 46:45Speaker 3: deep dive and like, I find it really interesting because
- 46:48Speaker 3: you go back to 2017, Saxonville 17, right? Like that,
- 46:51Speaker 3: that was the defense that I feel like really propelled
- 46:54Speaker 3: the Jacksonville Jaguars. You couple that with the running game
- 46:56Speaker 3: of Leonard Fournette, the first five games of Saxonville, they
- 47:00Speaker 3: gave up 16.8 points.
- 47:01Speaker 2: Okay.
- 47:02Speaker 3: And now obviously what we saw that the makings of it,
- 47:05Speaker 3: because that Houston game, if you remember Pete, like they
- 47:07Speaker 3: got CJ Stroud down, like I think seven times, Clarence
- 47:09Speaker 3: Campbell had like four or five sacks himself. You go
- 47:12Speaker 3: to this season and, And they're better in terms of
- 47:15Speaker 3: points per game. They're giving up 14 points a game
- 47:17Speaker 3: right now. And you look at that number and say, OK, well,
- 47:21Speaker 3: maybe it's an outlier, right? But then I'm like, OK, well,
- 47:23Speaker 3: you played the Bengals. You played the Patriots. And we thought, OK,
- 47:26Speaker 3: the Patriots were. Look what the Patriots just did against
- 47:28Speaker 3: the Raiders and the points they put up. So I
- 47:31Speaker 3: understand you need to get after the quarterback. But here's
- 47:33Speaker 3: what I think we're not talking enough about. And Pete,
- 47:36Speaker 3: you know this firsthand because you've talked to GMs, you've
- 47:38Speaker 3: talked to NFL head coaches. The game is going towards
- 47:43Speaker 3: a more of a run first option, right? Teams are
- 47:45Speaker 3: putting an emphasis on running the football. The Jacksonville Jaguars
- 47:49Speaker 3: are specializing in stopping the run, right? So we've seen
- 47:53Speaker 3: the Patriots be shells in themselves because they can't run
- 47:56Speaker 3: the football. We've seen the Browns be shells in themselves
- 47:58Speaker 3: because they can't run the football. We've seen the Browns,
- 48:01Speaker 3: or the Browns, the Bengals have an okay offensive output
- 48:05Speaker 3: but not win a game because they can't run the football.
- 48:07Speaker 3: So I understand. There's got to be an emphasis on
- 48:09Speaker 3: getting the quarterback down, especially going back to that Bills
- 48:12Speaker 3: game last year where Josh Allen, you know, was scot-free,
- 48:16Speaker 3: won the Bills the football game. But we can't forget
- 48:19Speaker 3: in terms of they have the ultimate advantage, it seems like,
- 48:23Speaker 3: because the NFL is transitioning towards the Jaguar specialty of
- 48:26Speaker 3: stopping the run.
- 48:28Speaker 5: No, I'll give you that. They're great at stopping the run.
- 48:30Speaker 5: And those guys are all good run defenders. But usually
- 48:33Speaker 5: that translates to pressure. And I'm going to go back
- 48:37Speaker 5: to what you said. Let's go back to the games
- 48:40Speaker 5: where they needed to get guys on the ground in
- 48:42Speaker 5: key moments. The Bills game. They didn't get them on
- 48:44Speaker 5: the ground. The late in the Bengals game. they didn't
- 48:48Speaker 5: get them on the ground. Yesterday, they didn't get them
- 48:52Speaker 5: on the ground. The Broncos game, they didn't get them
- 48:56Speaker 5: on the ground. You gotta be in the moment, so
- 48:59Speaker 5: it doesn't have to come in flurry, like you're not
- 49:00Speaker 5: gonna be in the Minnesota Vikings where you're getting all
- 49:02Speaker 5: those sacks and pressures and everything else because they throw
- 49:05Speaker 5: so many exotic looks at you. But in the moment,
- 49:09Speaker 5: do you have the belief, and this is the question
- 49:12Speaker 5: you need to ask, that the group that's constructed as
- 49:16Speaker 5: it is right now can get the opposing quarterback on
- 49:19Speaker 5: the ground in the.
- 49:20Speaker 3: Key moment but pete here's what i believe i believe
- 49:22Speaker 3: you have josh heinz down who had 17 and a
- 49:24Speaker 3: half sacks in a season so i think like eventually
- 49:27Speaker 3: he's got to get home i think trayvon walker he
- 49:29Speaker 3: can get home but yeah you're right like The stats
- 49:33Speaker 3: speak for themselves. They're not getting the quarterback on the ground.
- 49:35Speaker 5: But wouldn't it be, okay, as much as we, and
- 49:38Speaker 5: I think Trayvon Walker can rush better from the inside.
- 49:41Speaker 2: True.
- 49:42Speaker 5: Okay, so if Trayvon Walker rushes better from the inside,
- 49:45Speaker 5: wouldn't it be in your best interest if you're really
- 49:48Speaker 5: going to go for the Super Bowl this year, which
- 49:49Speaker 5: I think they.
- 49:50Speaker 4: Legitimately can do. And you're close. You're a good team.
- 49:54Speaker 5: Why not do everything possible to get a twitchy edge rusher? Sure.
- 50:02Speaker 3: And listen, it's only going to help things. But then
- 50:04Speaker 3: I also look at their secondary and I go, why
- 50:07Speaker 3: do we have Jerrion Jones in zone coverage when he's
- 50:10Speaker 3: clearly not a zone defender?
- 50:12Speaker 5: And why did you have Monteric Brown in man-to-man coverage?
- 50:14Speaker 3: And I was just going to ask that. Then why
- 50:15Speaker 3: do we have Monteric Brown in man coverage when he's
- 50:17Speaker 3: clearly not a man-to-man defender? So, like, this is what
- 50:19Speaker 3: complimentary football is. Is the pass rush hurting? Absolutely. Is
- 50:23Speaker 3: the secondary not really doing their part in helping him out?
- 50:25Speaker 3: Sometimes they aren't. Because I can sit here and pick,
- 50:28Speaker 3: I don't know if Jalen Jones should be in zone coverage.
- 50:30Speaker 3: I don't know if Monteric should be in man coverage.
- 50:32Speaker 5: So.
- 50:33Speaker 3: To me, it goes hand in hand, and I don't
- 50:35Speaker 3: know if it's more of a scheme thing where they're
- 50:36Speaker 3: trying to do new things and maybe those things aren't necessarily.
- 50:39Speaker 3: But once again, it's 14 points a game they're allowing.
- 50:42Speaker 3: So who am I to say that's not worth a beat?
- 50:44Speaker 4: And again, but how many good offenses have they played?
- 50:48Speaker 2: Cincinnati's good offense.
- 50:49Speaker 3: I mean, I think the Patriots have found something recently.
- 50:53Speaker 5: Yeah, they have recently, but the Broncos aren't a good offense.
- 50:56Speaker 5: The Browns aren't a good offense. The Eagles certainly weren't.
- 51:01Speaker 3: A good offense.
- 51:01Speaker 2: Yeah, Eagles weren't.
- 51:04Speaker 5: So, you know, I don't know how many good offenses
- 51:06Speaker 5: they play, but here's the other thing. If you can
- 51:10Speaker 5: call the Raiders in two weeks after they lose the
- 51:13Speaker 5: next two weeks because they play Buffalo and the Rams, they're.
- 51:16Speaker 4: Going to lose the next two weeks.
- 51:18Speaker 5: When you call the Raiders on Max Crosby and make
- 51:21Speaker 5: the call, the Raiders traded him. Let's not forget that.
- 51:25Speaker 2: What was the trade parameters for that? What was given back?
- 51:28Speaker 5: Two ones, but you're not going to get two ones
- 51:30Speaker 5: for him during the season.
- 51:32Speaker 4: But But they traded him.
- 51:34Speaker 5: So they're more than willing to get rid of him.
- 51:36Speaker 2: But would you get rid of another one?
- 51:37Speaker 5: Particularly if the next two weeks blow up and you're
- 51:39Speaker 5: going to start maybe hearing the talk about playing Mendoza
- 51:41Speaker 5: and getting on with it. Then it's a total rebuild.
- 51:44Speaker 5: So why wouldn't you call? With the Jacksonville Jaguars on
- 51:47Speaker 5: third down late in the game, you have Trayvon Walker inside.
- 51:51Speaker 5: You have Max Crosby on the other side. You have
- 51:54Speaker 5: Josh Heinz-Allen and Armstead rushing to pass her. Doesn't that
- 51:58Speaker 5: put a little fear in the opposing quarterback?
- 52:00Speaker 3: No, it does, Pete. But you can't just quite look
- 52:02Speaker 3: at this from a fan. Put yourself in James Gladstone's
- 52:05Speaker 3: shoes quick. If you go after Max Crosby, because the
- 52:08Speaker 3: window is open, and this is very Rams-esque, if you will.
- 52:11Speaker 3: If you go after Max Crosby, how much money is
- 52:14Speaker 3: he going to be making then?
- 52:16Speaker 2: It has to be with a new deal, right?
- 52:18Speaker 5: Well, not necessarily. I got to look at his.
- 52:21Speaker 3: No, no, no. But you're going to be paying him
- 52:24Speaker 3: top dollar. So now you're gonna be paying Trayvon Walker,
- 52:26Speaker 3: Josh Hines, Alan, and you're going to be paying Max Crosby.
- 52:29Speaker 3: And on top of that, you're going to lose probably
- 52:31Speaker 3: your three technique, maybe an Eric Armstead because he'll be
- 52:34Speaker 3: another year older and you're going to lose your dress.
- 52:36Speaker 5: I mean, that's a, that's an easy get out the door.
- 52:38Speaker 5: That's If I could give Eric Armstead right now his
- 52:43Speaker 5: contract and him out the door for Max Crosby tomorrow afternoon.
- 52:46Speaker 3: Get him out the door then. But then my question is,
- 52:48Speaker 3: on that first round pick that you give up to
- 52:49Speaker 3: get Max Crosby, what's the plan for three technique next
- 52:51Speaker 3: year then? Albert Regis?
- 52:54Speaker 5: You drafted him. You drafted him.
- 52:56Speaker 3: So you're going to have Albert Regis be your starting
- 52:58Speaker 3: three technique?
- 52:59Speaker 5: Well, he might be. If you drafted him where you
- 53:00Speaker 5: drafted him, you clearly believe in him.
- 53:02Speaker 3: He might be. Wesley Williams might be a good edge rusher.
- 53:04Speaker 3: I don't know right now.
- 53:06Speaker 5: But that's why you draft. But if you're going for it,
- 53:08Speaker 5: you go for it. I don't think... And this is...
- 53:12Speaker 5: I picked them to win the Super Bowl. Sure. But
- 53:15Speaker 5: I don't think the way they rush the passer, they
- 53:18Speaker 5: can win it. I don't think they can get Josh
- 53:20Speaker 5: Allen on the ground in key moments. I don't think
- 53:23Speaker 5: they can get Joe Burrow even on the ground in
- 53:25Speaker 5: key moments if they play him. Lamar Jackson, we'll find
- 53:27Speaker 5: out if they get him on the ground in key
- 53:29Speaker 5: moments in a couple weeks. You know, then you go out...
- 53:32Speaker 5: You know, you play Mahomes. You're going to get him
- 53:34Speaker 5: on the ground in key moments. So you're going to
- 53:37Speaker 5: have to get to get to the Super Bowl. You're
- 53:38Speaker 5: going to have to get one of those guys on
- 53:39Speaker 5: the ground in key moments.
- 53:42Speaker 4: I don't know if they could do that.
- 53:45Speaker 3: I think right now, because there's other ways to manufacture pressure, Pete,
- 53:48Speaker 3: you know that. And obviously the defensive line sending for
- 53:51Speaker 3: it's not getting home.
- 53:52Speaker 5: Right?
- 53:52Speaker 3: The issue is, is that when you blitz and you
- 53:55Speaker 3: send more than four, when you blitz, whether it's a cornerback,
- 53:58Speaker 3: whether it's a linebacker or something, I feel like they
- 54:01Speaker 3: don't have the scheme set in place right now to
- 54:02Speaker 3: make up for that. Like, you... In defenses, you need
- 54:06Speaker 3: cornerbacks that can do both.
- 54:08Speaker 5: No offense to the name, but having Lane on the field, too,
- 54:12Speaker 5: is like, I mean, they have a problem with him
- 54:15Speaker 5: on the field. He's not the guy they want back there.
- 54:18Speaker 5: And then you had Merriweather playing 20-something snaps yesterday, too.
- 54:23Speaker 3: Did I miss him with Husky, by the way?
- 54:25Speaker 2: I just think he only played three special team snaps.
- 54:27Speaker 4: He was active.
- 54:28Speaker 2: They just didn't put him out there.
- 54:29Speaker 4: They played Merriweather.
- 54:30Speaker 2: What did Merriweather play, 21? 22, something like that. Yeah,
- 54:31Speaker 2: hold on.
- 54:36Speaker 4: Well, because they play three safeties all the time.
- 54:38Speaker 2: Sure. Yeah, so Rand Lane played 62 snaps, which was 100%
- 54:42Speaker 2: of the snaps. Merriweather played 21 snaps, 34%. And Husky
- 54:48Speaker 2: only played three snaps on special teams, didn't play on
- 54:50Speaker 2: defense at all.
- 54:51Speaker 5: Lane should not be playing that many snaps, but you
- 54:53Speaker 5: have to because of injury.
- 54:54Speaker 2: Are they just really concerned about the rookie? At least
- 54:57Speaker 2: Husky can hit. Yeah. Cause also lane was out of
- 55:01Speaker 2: position on that one touchdown where he got.
- 55:04Speaker 5: He came running up and took a terrible angle. The
- 55:07Speaker 5: one where he went by Monteric Brown, he took a
- 55:09Speaker 5: terrible angle. So, Again, I see what you're.
- 55:13Speaker 3: Saying, Austin.
- 55:13Speaker 5: If you're going to blitz, go play man with Jarrion
- 55:15Speaker 5: Jones and Travis Hunter and lock them up.
- 55:18Speaker 4: Correct. And say, go ahead, you beat me.
- 55:19Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 55:20Speaker 5: And Jarrion Jones got torched in man-to-man coverage, and he
- 55:23Speaker 5: got away with it. Remember, they did play zero blitz.
- 55:25Speaker 2: He just didn't go with them. Yeah. I don't know
- 55:28Speaker 2: what that was.
- 55:28Speaker 5: If he hits that, that's a different game. Wicks is
- 55:30Speaker 5: wide open.
- 55:31Speaker 2: That was wild.
- 55:32Speaker 3: I was like, wait, did he just stop? That was
- 55:34Speaker 3: a mental breakdown. See, it looked like he thought he
- 55:35Speaker 3: was in zones.
- 55:37Speaker 5: No, no, he jumped... No, he did a stutter and go.
- 55:39Speaker 5: He read the stutter and kind of jumped the stutter
- 55:41Speaker 5: and went down the sideline.
- 55:42Speaker 4: That was terrible.
- 55:43Speaker 3: That was bad, yeah.
- 55:44Speaker 5: You know, that's what you get with Jarrion, though. You're
- 55:46Speaker 5: going to get the aggressive play and you're going to
- 55:48Speaker 5: get the good with it and you're going to get
- 55:49Speaker 5: the bad with it. That's who he is.
- 55:51Speaker 2: So.
- 55:52Speaker 5: But I'm with you. If you're going to blitz, play
- 55:55Speaker 5: more man. If you're not going to blitz, then, you know,
- 55:58Speaker 5: but and we are nitpicking because they are giving up
- 56:00Speaker 5: 14 points a game.
- 56:02Speaker 4: We're nitpicking.
- 56:03Speaker 3: Sure.
- 56:03Speaker 5: But I don't think in the moment of a key game,
- 56:06Speaker 5: they're going to be able to get the opposing quarterback
- 56:08Speaker 5: on the ground.
- 56:09Speaker 2: And I think sometimes it's fair to be nitpicky because
- 56:11Speaker 2: this team relies so much on takeaways when they don't
- 56:14Speaker 2: get them. You need to have something else to fall
- 56:17Speaker 2: back on. And so because they can be finicky, yes,
- 56:19Speaker 2: you can focus on that, but you can't guarantee takeaways.
- 56:22Speaker 2: And therefore, that's when some of the other stuff, the
- 56:24Speaker 2: issues shine through.
- 56:25Speaker 5: By the way, they were working against a rookie right tackle,
- 56:29Speaker 5: a guard that was my size in Lampkin. By the way,
- 56:34Speaker 5: he's my patron saint because he wore the same number
- 56:37Speaker 5: I wore.
- 56:37Speaker 3: In high school, 61.
- 56:37Speaker 5: I love the little guy, but come on, let's be real.
- 56:41Speaker 5: And he did a nice job.
- 56:43Speaker 4: A center who made his first start, and then.
- 56:46Speaker 5: When the right guard, Steen, went out, they brought in
- 56:49Speaker 5: old Johnson, Fred Johnson, to play right guard. So it
- 56:52Speaker 5: wasn't like they were working against the old Dallas Cowboys
- 56:55Speaker 5: offensive line of yesteryear. They were working against a bunch
- 56:59Speaker 5: of bumpkins, and they still couldn't get home.
- 57:01Speaker 2: I feel like every time when we see there's going
- 57:03Speaker 2: to be a backup lineman in, it ends up being
- 57:05Speaker 2: a worse game for the fast rush. It's like you
- 57:08Speaker 2: go in expecting more, and then it's less than.
- 57:12Speaker 3: We can wrap this up and talk about something else here,
- 57:14Speaker 3: but you go to the Broncos game, they lose. They
- 57:18Speaker 3: didn't play well. You go to the Eagles game where
- 57:20Speaker 3: they got lucky by the skin of their teeth where
- 57:22Speaker 3: they won that one. But in those two instances... Once again, yes,
- 57:26Speaker 3: the defense was porous. Waddell had a field day, obviously,
- 57:29Speaker 3: we saw. We saw a bunch of receivers, we maybe
- 57:30Speaker 3: never heard of before, for Philly, get touchdowns and everything.
- 57:34Speaker 3: But I go back to the 14 points a game. Like,
- 57:37Speaker 3: this is an offensive identity team. Like, this is led
- 57:40Speaker 3: by Liam Cohen. This team was designed to put up points. So, like,
- 57:44Speaker 3: how much of it– I mean, we can sit here
- 57:46Speaker 3: and say, get after the quarterback, get the quarterback down, right? Okay, fine.
- 57:49Speaker 3: But I feel like the defense is doing their part. Like,
- 57:52Speaker 3: do we need the offense to also step up their
- 57:54Speaker 3: game a little bit and score more points? Because if
- 57:56Speaker 3: you have a defense who's given up 14 points a game–
- 57:59Speaker 3: If I'm an offense, I'm licking my chops.
- 58:01Speaker 5: That's a good point.
- 58:02Speaker 2: We talked all offseason about this high-flying offense and what
- 58:04Speaker 2: it was going to look like. And they win in 19-17,
- 58:06Speaker 2: win in all these games.
- 58:08Speaker 5: And they're guilty of being their own worst enemy. I mean,
- 58:11Speaker 5: that's what they are. They're their own worst enemy. The mistakes,
- 58:14Speaker 5: the penalties, the sloppiness, the whole thing. So I can't
- 58:17Speaker 5: argue with you. If you're giving up 14 points a game,
- 58:20Speaker 5: you should be winning those games 26-14, 28-14.
- 58:22Speaker 3: But again.
- 58:28Speaker 4: If you can call on Crosby, why wouldn't you call
- 58:31Speaker 4: on him?
- 58:31Speaker 2: Pete, if you were a GM, this is one of
- 58:33Speaker 2: the fan questions. If you were the GM, is that
- 58:35Speaker 2: the call you'd make?
- 58:36Speaker 5: Absolutely.
- 58:37Speaker 4: That is absolutely the call I'd make.
- 58:39Speaker 5: Does Khalil Mack put you over the top?
- 58:46Speaker 4: And what are you giving up for Khalil Mack?
- 58:47Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, for sure. But they might be a little
- 58:49Speaker 3: more desperate, Pete, because they've got to be in sell
- 58:51Speaker 3: mode at this point. You get the sense the Raiders
- 58:54Speaker 3: might be a little more like, well, you never know.
- 58:56Speaker 4: I'd give up a five for Khalil Mack.
- 58:58Speaker 3: Sure, yeah.
- 58:59Speaker 4: Yeah, I would do that.
- 59:00Speaker 3: Even like a rental.
- 59:01Speaker 5: I would call on Khalil Mack. I would call on Crosby.
- 59:04Speaker 5: I would call on Payne in Washington for an interior rusher.
- 59:08Speaker 5: I would consider.– that's about it, I think.
- 59:13Speaker 4: Those are the guys I would call on.
- 59:14Speaker 5: You know, Zach Seeler in Miami hadn't played as well,
- 59:18Speaker 5: so I wouldn't do that because he was good a
- 59:20Speaker 5: couple years ago and his play has leveled off. But, yeah,
- 59:24Speaker 5: all the teams that stink– I would call their players.
- 59:28Speaker 5: I would call them. If the Raiders go into tank
- 59:30Speaker 5: the next two weeks, Crosby, the Chargers for Mack, Payne
- 59:34Speaker 5: for their commanders. Who else stinks? Let's see, the Titans
- 59:37Speaker 5: aren't gonna trade you anybody, so you can forget about that.
- 59:40Speaker 5: Miami doesn't have anybody.
- 59:43Speaker 3: Pete, do you think the Eagles might be in sell mode?
- 59:46Speaker 3: The Jaguars have worked with them a little bit before.
- 59:48Speaker 5: There's some talk that the Eagles could be because of
- 59:51Speaker 5: their cap situation. But where's your edge rusher there?
- 59:56Speaker 3: You're not getting one. Yeah. Nolan Smith? Nolan Smith is
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: what I was thinking. Not really, no. I don't want
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: him covering Travis Hunter anymore, I'll tell you that much.
- 1:00:06Speaker 3: That was a rough one.
- 1:00:06Speaker 5: That was great design, though.
- 1:00:08Speaker 4: They motioned out the tight.
- 1:00:09Speaker 5: End and had to walk out the guy and had
- 1:00:12Speaker 5: him in one-on-one.
- 1:00:13Speaker 3: If I'm Nolan Smith, I'm calling timeout on that play. Coach,
- 1:00:16Speaker 3: I'm not covering him.
- 1:00:18Speaker 2: No.
- 1:00:18Speaker 5: You know what's funny about that? Once Travis Hunter caught
- 1:00:21Speaker 5: that and ran the route, he thought he was going
- 1:00:24Speaker 5: to get more run at wide receiver, I think.
- 1:00:26Speaker 3: Oh, sure.
- 1:00:26Speaker 4: How could he not?
- 1:00:29Speaker 3: How could he not? Yeah, absolutely.
- 1:00:32Speaker 2: It's coming.
- 1:00:32Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: So says Travis.
- 1:00:33Speaker 4: It's coming.
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: All right, we're going to keep it real when we
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: come back from the break because we're going to talk
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: about some coaching, some decisions were made in this game
- 1:00:42Speaker 2: and across the NFL, and I know Pete has thoughts
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: about it. Austin, too. Stay with us here on Jaguars

- 1:01:04Speaker 2: hour presented by Mr. Chubby's wings. And we're going to
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: keep it real. It's presented by serve pro. Like it
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: never even happened. And when talking around it happened, certainly
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: you guys saw it on, on a Sunday morning in London.
- 1:01:18Speaker 2: And then also a little bit later on with the
- 1:01:20Speaker 2: commanders trying to figure things out. And over time, um,
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: the coaching decisions and no one is immune today, but, um,
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: some choices were made Pete. And I forgot to ask
- 1:01:32Speaker 2: you this earlier. Cause we had some fan questions. How
- 1:01:34Speaker 2: much did you love the jet sweep on fourth down too?
- 1:01:37Speaker 5: As soon as it works.
- 1:01:40Speaker 2: The first time I was.
- 1:01:41Speaker 5: Like, no, by the, by the way, having watched it
- 1:01:44Speaker 5: on the tape, If Rodriguez makes his block, it's a touchdown.
- 1:01:47Speaker 2: Well, there's always a chance for it to work, but.
- 1:01:49Speaker 5: It's still annoying. Sometimes a play is poorly designed and
- 1:01:52Speaker 5: it's just not going to work. That one wasn't– I
- 1:01:55Speaker 5: hated the call, I'll be honest with you, but if
- 1:01:57Speaker 5: Rodriguez blocks Zach Bond on that play.
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: Yes, at the end of the half.
- 1:02:00Speaker 4: Because they walked him out, remember? He walks in, I think.
- 1:02:04Speaker 3: Yeah, this is when there was empty backfield, right? They
- 1:02:06Speaker 3: motioned the back out.
- 1:02:07Speaker 5: They motioned Rodriguez out and then Bond went with him.
- 1:02:12Speaker 3: Yes.
- 1:02:12Speaker 5: And then they brought– tooting in motion and handed it
- 1:02:16Speaker 5: to him, and then Bond just blew up Rodriguez. I mean,
- 1:02:19Speaker 5: it was like me trying to block him.
- 1:02:22Speaker 3: Yeah, you get the sense, too, a little bit of, like,
- 1:02:24Speaker 3: there was a risk of Trevor Lawrence under-centered, the quarterback sneak, because, like,
- 1:02:28Speaker 3: usually when you do that empty backfield, it's like, well,
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: what are you game-planning for? But, okay, it could be
- 1:02:32Speaker 3: quarterback sneak. So I got the design of it, but,
- 1:02:35Speaker 3: once again, got a little too cute.
- 1:02:36Speaker 5: But that's not where the problem started on that whole sequence.
- 1:02:40Speaker 5: I'm going to tell you where the problem started.
- 1:02:42Speaker 2: Where did it start, Pete?
- 1:02:43Speaker 5: With a minute on fourth down. Think if you got
- 1:02:47Speaker 5: the playbook in front of you. They got the first
- 1:02:49Speaker 5: down on fourth down on that. I think it was
- 1:02:52Speaker 5: the flip to Tootin, correct?
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: Is this the end of the second? This is the
- 1:02:55Speaker 2: one you're talking about?
- 1:02:57Speaker 4: Yeah, the whole sequence before the half.
- 1:02:59Speaker 2: Okay, so the Chris Rodriguez right tackle when he fumble-thinged
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: or after that?
- 1:03:08Speaker 5: No, they had a fourth down conversion.
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, on the jet sweep to Tootin'. Then pass
- 1:03:13Speaker 2: over the middle to Josh Cameron.
- 1:03:14Speaker 5: Okay, so how much time was left?
- 1:03:15Speaker 4: There was a minute left when he got there.
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: A minute 06, and then.
- 1:03:19Speaker 5: They didn't snap the ball again until there was 30
- 1:03:22Speaker 5: seconds left.
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: Correct. You are correct. Trevor Lawrence over the middle to
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: Josh Cameron for nine yards at 30 seconds.
- 1:03:28Speaker 5: And so everybody said, well, they got their plays— because I
- 1:03:31Speaker 5: put this on Twitter.
- 1:03:32Speaker 4: I said they botched that.
- 1:03:33Speaker 5: Everybody goes, well, they got their plays.
- 1:03:35Speaker 4: Well, they had to throw.
- 1:03:37Speaker 5: They were forced to throw because they didn't have any
- 1:03:40Speaker 5: timeouts left. They botched that because they allowed from the
- 1:03:43Speaker 5: time they got the first down to the time they
- 1:03:45Speaker 5: snapped the ball, that time of 30 seconds was much
- 1:03:48Speaker 5: more valuable than the timeout. They should have called timeout
- 1:03:53Speaker 5: and gone from there. They would have got more plays,
- 1:03:56Speaker 5: more chances to run the ball faster. in that scenario
- 1:03:59Speaker 5: than they did. So me personally, I think they botched
- 1:04:02Speaker 5: the end. They botched that time situation. And then I
- 1:04:05Speaker 5: didn't like, didn't love the jets. You know how I
- 1:04:07Speaker 5: love the jet sweep. They all run it.
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: Also, did you feel, I don't know if we'll ever
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: get a full true answer on this, not going for
- 1:04:16Speaker 2: the points was a long snapper situation or was Liam
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: already kind of leaning that way with not kicking some
- 1:04:23Speaker 2: of those field goals because I think.
- 1:04:26Speaker 5: At the end of the half, what yard line were they?
- 1:04:29Speaker 5: That was the two, wasn't it?
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: It was the one, wasn't it?
- 1:04:33Speaker 5: Were they down to the one?
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: Yeah, they were down to the one because it was, yeah,
- 1:04:36Speaker 2: they were down to the one.
- 1:04:37Speaker 5: Rodriguez got blown up on the one run.
- 1:04:40Speaker 2: Yeah, and he fumbled it, but they didn't call it
- 1:04:42Speaker 2: a fumble, and then they didn't have their clear recovery
- 1:04:44Speaker 2: when they looked at it, and they were down at
- 1:04:46Speaker 2: the one, and then it was second and one, pass
- 1:04:49Speaker 2: incomplete over the middle, third and one, pass.
- 1:04:52Speaker 5: Incomplete to Brian Thomas.
- 1:04:53Speaker 2: The third one was Brian Thomas.
- 1:04:54Speaker 4: He should have caught it.
- 1:04:55Speaker 5: And then the Jets win.
- 1:04:57Speaker 2: And the Tootin', yeah.
- 1:04:59Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:04:59Speaker 5: Minus six. I personally think, me, I would have taken
- 1:05:03Speaker 5: the points there. They weren't taking the points there, even
- 1:05:07Speaker 5: if their snapper was healthy. That's not Liam.
- 1:05:11Speaker 3: Yeah. And here's the thing about that, Pete. Obviously, you
- 1:05:14Speaker 3: kick the field goal, you're done by one then, right?
- 1:05:16Speaker 3: But I was worried about a couple things. Number one,
- 1:05:19Speaker 3: Jalen Carter's having a field day. So, like, I was
- 1:05:22Speaker 3: a little nervous in terms of if you want to
- 1:05:23Speaker 3: run up the middle, what was that going to look like?
- 1:05:25Speaker 3: But I was also worried, and it's crazy to say it,
- 1:05:27Speaker 3: but you're playing an away game in London with all
- 1:05:29Speaker 3: those Philly fans there. If you give Philly any kind
- 1:05:31Speaker 3: of momentum, and this is what the analytics will never
- 1:05:33Speaker 3: tell you about momentum, the computer doesn't register emotion. But
- 1:05:39Speaker 3: why would you give Philly that much more momentum then? Like, yeah, okay,
- 1:05:42Speaker 3: maybe it's a bad snap and a missed field goal,
- 1:05:44Speaker 3: then they still get the momentum. But nothing gives a
- 1:05:47Speaker 3: team energy like a fourth and goal stand.
- 1:05:51Speaker 2: And philly gets the ball back after the half right
- 1:05:52Speaker 2: as well so you can't even come back and try.
- 1:05:54Speaker 5: To but it's not like they had done anything on
- 1:05:56Speaker 5: offense though and and and here's this thing carter just
- 1:06:00Speaker 5: blew that up yeah he just blew it up yeah
- 1:06:02Speaker 5: i mean he sliced right there and blew it up
- 1:06:05Speaker 5: um so then but go back to the sequencing again
- 1:06:08Speaker 5: first that they got the first down on fourth down
- 1:06:10Speaker 5: with a minute two left he threw the next play
- 1:06:12Speaker 5: he snapped it with 30 seconds and threw to cameron
- 1:06:15Speaker 5: right yep And then they called timeout, right?
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: Then they called timeout with 23 seconds left.
- 1:06:21Speaker 5: And which timeout was that of theirs?
- 1:06:23Speaker 2: That was their first timeout? Yeah. Correct.
- 1:06:26Speaker 5: First timeout of the day. So you went from 1.03
- 1:06:28Speaker 5: or whatever to 30 seconds with all three of your timeouts.
- 1:06:33Speaker 5: And you had that many left. So it ended up
- 1:06:36Speaker 5: being rushed. Remember they said he snapped one ball in
- 1:06:40Speaker 5: this play to Thomas. If he doesn't get it off,
- 1:06:44Speaker 5: you get nothing. You get no chance or a chance
- 1:06:47Speaker 5: at a field goal. And then the play before that,
- 1:06:49Speaker 5: he held it too long. But it's too long because
- 1:06:53Speaker 5: you don't have time because you didn't play the time right.
- 1:06:56Speaker 4: They botched that at the end of the half, period.
- 1:07:00Speaker 2: There were some interesting– clock management at the end as well, Pete,
- 1:07:04Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter before they gave the ball back
- 1:07:07Speaker 2: to Philly when you thought they were going to try
- 1:07:10Speaker 2: it with 159 left when the Jaguars got the ball.
- 1:07:14Speaker 2: And they run it once with Tootin. Philly took a timeout.
- 1:07:19Speaker 2: But then they stacked the box and they threw it.
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: I think that's.
- 1:07:24Speaker 5: The play that was changed at the line of scrimmage.
- 1:07:26Speaker 2: You think Trevor changed out of it trying to get
- 1:07:28Speaker 2: that quick pass?
- 1:07:29Speaker 5: You could tell by the way he went to the
- 1:07:31Speaker 5: sideline and Liam went over to him that that was
- 1:07:34Speaker 5: changed at the line of scrimmage. He must have liked
- 1:07:36Speaker 5: the look he saw and changed it. You should give
- 1:07:39Speaker 5: him a play. This is the play. Don't change the
- 1:07:43Speaker 5: damn thing.
- 1:07:44Speaker 3: Run it.
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:07:45Speaker 5: Because they gave a free timeout.
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: Right. And then it's third and eight and you're putting
- 1:07:50Speaker 2: yourself in a tough spot. Whereas if you were able
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: to hold on to the football there. Yeah.
- 1:07:55Speaker 5: I don't think that play was called now. That's just
- 1:07:58Speaker 5: my hunch. I don't know that for a fact. And
- 1:08:01Speaker 5: I would, I would ask him yesterday if I was there,
- 1:08:04Speaker 5: but it just had the look and the feel that.
- 1:08:09Speaker 4: He didn't, he didn't call that play.
- 1:08:11Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:08:12Speaker 3: We could ask PFF. I'm sure they know.
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: PFF knows all. Yeah.
- 1:08:16Speaker 3: They wouldn't know. They wouldn't know.
- 1:08:17Speaker 5: But that was just, okay, so Sunday starts with me
- 1:08:20Speaker 5: being irritated by bad decision-making.
- 1:08:22Speaker 4: So then the whole day is just filled with it.
- 1:08:25Speaker 5: And that's why at the end of the day last
- 1:08:27Speaker 5: night I went on a rant, just destroyed the NFL
- 1:08:29Speaker 5: head coaches.
- 1:08:30Speaker 4: Okay, we'll get to, we saw the end of the
- 1:08:33Speaker 4: Commanders game.
- 1:08:34Speaker 5: Inexcusable.
- 1:08:35Speaker 2: What was the live look of Pete watching that?
- 1:08:37Speaker 3: Which one, I mean, Pete, are we talking about, because
- 1:08:39Speaker 3: I think both coaches are to blame here. Like, obviously,
- 1:08:42Speaker 3: Dan Quinn got too cute, ran the clock down, but
- 1:08:45Speaker 3: don't you think John Harbaugh, too, should have just kicked
- 1:08:46Speaker 3: the field goal instead of Kip then running with Cam
- 1:08:48Speaker 3: Scadaboo and he fumbles?
- 1:08:50Speaker 5: I think the weather was bad, so they wanted to
- 1:08:52Speaker 5: get a little closer.
- 1:08:53Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:08:56Speaker 5: But not getting any playoff at the end of the day,
- 1:08:59Speaker 5: it's not like you're going to, that's the end of overtime.
- 1:09:02Speaker 5: There's no more kicking off. So you're not worrying about
- 1:09:04Speaker 5: what's times left on the clock. Go kick the field goal.
- 1:09:08Speaker 2: Did we get an explanation? Did he just think he
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: had a timeout? What was the thought? Did, did we
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: get any kind of explanation? Do you think there was
- 1:09:14Speaker 2: a timeout? What was what happened? No, they didn't think
- 1:09:17Speaker 2: it was a timeout.
- 1:09:19Speaker 5: If you look at the play, and nobody will say this,
- 1:09:22Speaker 5: it looks like he told Jalen to throw the ball
- 1:09:24Speaker 5: out of the back, you know, throw it out of
- 1:09:26Speaker 5: bounds or whatever. You know, kind of kill the clock
- 1:09:29Speaker 5: a little bit. Well, what are you worrying about the
- 1:09:30Speaker 5: clock for? It's overtime. There's no need to worry about
- 1:09:33Speaker 5: the clock. You make the kick, the game's over. They
- 1:09:36Speaker 5: already had their possessions. So either way, the quarterback messed
- 1:09:41Speaker 5: it up and the head coach messed it up.
- 1:09:43Speaker 4: That's one.
- 1:09:44Speaker 3: I'm sorry. I'm not getting, I'm not, I mean, I
- 1:09:45Speaker 3: guess you and John Harbaugh are best friends and he's
- 1:09:47Speaker 3: going to vend me some money, Pete, underneath the table.
- 1:09:49Speaker 3: I thought, I thought that was a bad call by
- 1:09:51Speaker 3: John Harbaugh. I kept on running the football. Cause you
- 1:09:53Speaker 3: said it yourself. It's bad weather. Well, bad weather also.
- 1:09:56Speaker 5: Yeah, but the kicker had missed earlier. The kicker had
- 1:09:59Speaker 5: missed earlier. I think that had a lot to do
- 1:10:01Speaker 5: with it.
- 1:10:01Speaker 2: I don't, I don't. Okay.
- 1:10:04Speaker 4: I can't really fault him on that one. If the
- 1:10:06Speaker 4: weather was good and they didn't run.
- 1:10:09Speaker 5: Yeah, I would have.
- 1:10:09Speaker 4: And they were down.
- 1:10:11Speaker 5: They weren't that close, I don't think.
- 1:10:12Speaker 3: When he fumbled.
- 1:10:13Speaker 4: It was like the 40-something.
- 1:10:15Speaker 3: Okay, and then you have the.
- 1:10:16Speaker 5: Okay, now I got... So I can move from the
- 1:10:18Speaker 5: commander's game because we just obliterated Dan Quinn. Then you
- 1:10:23Speaker 5: go to the great Jim Harbaugh. The Chargers are winning
- 1:10:30Speaker 5: 17 to 10.
- 1:10:32Speaker 3: Have momentum.
- 1:10:33Speaker 4: With 10 minutes to go in the fourth quarter. The
- 1:10:36Speaker 4: Broncos haven't done a damn thing on offense all day.
- 1:10:40Speaker 5: And Harbaugh decides on fourth and one from his own 41, he's.
- 1:10:46Speaker 4: Going to go for it. He doesn't get it.
- 1:10:48Speaker 5: But what happens? He gives life to the Broncos. They
- 1:10:53Speaker 5: go down, tie the game. The next possession, Herbert.
- 1:10:57Speaker 4: Throws a pick.
- 1:10:59Speaker 5: They get a field goal.
- 1:11:00Speaker 3: Game over.
- 1:11:02Speaker 5: And so any momentum that your team had went out
- 1:11:08Speaker 5: the window with your stupidity by doing that. Punt the ball,
- 1:11:12Speaker 5: make them go 75, 80 yards to go get a
- 1:11:15Speaker 5: tying touchdown, not even a winning touchdown.
- 1:11:18Speaker 4: I don't understand that one.
- 1:11:20Speaker 3: So, Pete, here's a... Yeah, go ahead. Keep going.
- 1:11:22Speaker 5: No, I got more.
- 1:11:23Speaker 3: Keep going, keep going.
- 1:11:24Speaker 5: Mike McDonald won a Super Bowl last.
- 1:11:26Speaker 4: Year, did he not?
- 1:11:27Speaker 2: He did.
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: Pretty sure he did, yeah.
- 1:11:29Speaker 4: End of the half Sunday.
- 1:11:32Speaker 5: With 13 seconds left, he's got the ball at his
- 1:11:35Speaker 5: own four-yard line.
- 1:11:38Speaker 4: What do you do there?
- 1:11:39Speaker 5: Eh, I think I'll take my knee and go in
- 1:11:41Speaker 5: and take what I got right now, right?
- 1:11:43Speaker 2: Nah.
- 1:11:44Speaker 5: Nope, nope. He decides to hand the ball off. And
- 1:11:49Speaker 5: his running back got hit, fumbled, end zone, 49ers fall
- 1:11:53Speaker 5: on it, touchdown.
- 1:11:54Speaker 4: They lost the game. Mike McDonald, Super Bowl winner, he
- 1:11:58Speaker 4: blew it.
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: So, okay.
- 1:12:02Speaker 5: Liam Cohn, we know Sirianni, Quinn, Harbaugh, McDonald. Sirianni, Super
- 1:12:10Speaker 5: Bowl winner. Liam Cohn, one of the bright, brilliant offensive
- 1:12:14Speaker 5: and brilliant head coaches in this league on the way up.
- 1:12:17Speaker 5: Harbaugh won a national championship and went to a Super
- 1:12:19Speaker 5: Bowl and probably should have won one.
- 1:12:22Speaker 6: McDonald won one, and Dan Quinn lost a Super Bowl
- 1:12:25Speaker 6: after leading 28-3. These guys are all among the so-called
- 1:12:30Speaker 6: best of the best, and they all make stupid decisions.
- 1:12:34Speaker 3: And here's the thing about it, Pete. It would be
- 1:12:37Speaker 3: one thing if you could look at analytics and say, well,
- 1:12:39Speaker 3: the computer set. Some of these decisions aren't even a computer-based.
- 1:12:43Speaker 3: It's just it feels like it's a gut instinct, and
- 1:12:46Speaker 3: it's the wrong one. And this is what I can't fathom.
- 1:12:50Speaker 3: You have head coaches with years and years of experience.
- 1:12:53Speaker 3: they they know how momentum works like if anybody knows
- 1:12:56Speaker 3: how it's jim harbaugh man he's been doing it for
- 1:12:58Speaker 3: a long time i can see if it's like some
- 1:13:00Speaker 3: young upstart coach who's like all analytical wears his glasses
- 1:13:04Speaker 3: no like we're talking about jim harbaugh man and the
- 1:13:07Speaker 3: fact that he wanted to do what he did like
- 1:13:09Speaker 3: i i don't understand it if.
- 1:13:12Speaker 5: The game was 38 37 in that scenario you go
- 1:13:16Speaker 5: okay I could get it. You don't want to give
- 1:13:19Speaker 5: them the ball back. They've been going up and down
- 1:13:20Speaker 5: the field.
- 1:13:21Speaker 4: But it wasn't.
- 1:13:22Speaker 5: They had done a thing. Why give them a short field?
- 1:13:25Speaker 5: And then as far as McDonald, nobody, the coaches never
- 1:13:29Speaker 5: ask themselves the scenario, the worst case scenario or the
- 1:13:33Speaker 5: best case scenario. What's the best case scenario if it's
- 1:13:38Speaker 5: handed off with 13 seconds left? Is your best case scenario,
- 1:13:43Speaker 5: your best case scenario for you, is to go 96
- 1:13:47Speaker 5: yards a running back. Does that happen often?
- 1:13:50Speaker 2: No.
- 1:13:51Speaker 3: That's what we call being analytical. It's seeing the outcome
- 1:13:54Speaker 3: of both possible scenarios. You hand the ball off, either
- 1:13:57Speaker 3: he fumbles, it's going to be bad. Especially the opponent
- 1:14:00Speaker 3: that you're playing against, San Fran, who their defense is
- 1:14:03Speaker 3: pretty good. So they're probably not going to surrender a
- 1:14:04Speaker 3: long run.
- 1:14:05Speaker 5: Well, it's like at the end of the half, and
- 1:14:06Speaker 5: you've seen this many a time because you've been in
- 1:14:07Speaker 5: the league, you guys have seen this. At the end
- 1:14:09Speaker 5: of the half, say there's 12 seconds left, you get
- 1:14:11Speaker 5: the ball back after a punt. Take the snap, take
- 1:14:14Speaker 5: a knee, and go home. Why do teams bother handing off?
- 1:14:17Speaker 5: If you deepen your own end, the only thing that's
- 1:14:20Speaker 5: going to happen is bad. Hmm. You're going to fumble.
- 1:14:23Speaker 5: They get the ball. They get a field goal or
- 1:14:25Speaker 5: God forbid, they pick it up and run it in
- 1:14:26Speaker 5: for a touchdown. They don't think they got it. I mean,
- 1:14:29Speaker 5: McDonald's a really good coach. Why would you hand the
- 1:14:32Speaker 5: ball off in that scenario?
- 1:14:35Speaker 2: And I feel like these coaches also, they have like
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: a guy that's always kind of like, you know, because
- 1:14:39Speaker 2: they're doing a lot of things and I will give
- 1:14:40Speaker 2: them that because you have 8 million things in your brain.
- 1:14:43Speaker 2: You have a brain fart. You're not thinking clearly. There's
- 1:14:46Speaker 2: people employed that it's their job to be like, hey,
- 1:14:49Speaker 2: this is how many timeouts we have. Hey, this is
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: what's going on, to be in their ear and bug
- 1:14:52Speaker 2: them about it. And so maybe it's just them taking
- 1:14:55Speaker 2: on too much because I think sometimes they tend to say,
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: I got this.
- 1:14:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:14:59Speaker 2: Because looking back, they are aware to make some of
- 1:15:02Speaker 2: these decisions.
- 1:15:02Speaker 5: You're right in some scenarios.
- 1:15:04Speaker 2: Correct.
- 1:15:04Speaker 5: But if you're McDonald and your team gets the ball
- 1:15:06Speaker 5: in that scenario, you have time to think about it
- 1:15:09Speaker 5: and just take a knee and we'll go in.
- 1:15:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:15:11Speaker 3: But it's a great point, Kai, because look at McDonald's
- 1:15:13Speaker 3: and call plays, correct? Or does he call plays?
- 1:15:17Speaker 4: Defense.
- 1:15:17Speaker 2: Defense, right.
- 1:15:18Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, but does he call defense a play? No,
- 1:15:19Speaker 3: he doesn't call the.
- 1:15:21Speaker 5: He does.
- 1:15:21Speaker 3: He does, okay. But, okay, whatever that is. But you
- 1:15:23Speaker 3: look at Liam Cohen on offense, right? The guy's calling
- 1:15:25Speaker 3: the plays. So it's almost like you're playing a video
- 1:15:27Speaker 3: game where it's like, okay, call him, call him. And
- 1:15:29Speaker 3: you're so locked into that.
- 1:15:30Speaker 2: You need someone to be like, hey, you got two timeouts.
- 1:15:32Speaker 2: It's 45 seconds. Like, someone.
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:15:34Speaker 2: Yes, you can do it, but when you're... feet are
- 1:15:37Speaker 2: in the fire it's nice to have someone just be
- 1:15:38Speaker 2: like hey by the way.
- 1:15:39Speaker 5: Blah blah because so i can watch 72 teams at
- 1:15:44Speaker 5: the things at once and listen to 42 things at
- 1:15:46Speaker 5: once so you should be able to figure that out
- 1:15:49Speaker 5: and i agree there's not enough forward thinking in my
- 1:15:53Speaker 5: book like what happens if we do this this and
- 1:15:55Speaker 5: this compared to if we do this this and this
- 1:15:58Speaker 5: okay we'll take the knee And they don't do that enough.
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: There's also a lot of people on.
- 1:16:02Speaker 5: Staff who think someone should do that. What in God's
- 1:16:05Speaker 5: name would compel Sirianni to kick the ball off?
- 1:16:08Speaker 2: Well, Jason Kelsey said you should kick it short here.
- 1:16:11Speaker 2: If you're listening to the broadcast, Jason Kelsey said you
- 1:16:13Speaker 2: should kick it short here at the end. Try to
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: make them field it. Why?
- 1:16:18Speaker 4: The only thing that can happen in that scenario is bad.
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: Mm-hmm. bad especially because the jaguars had no timeouts and.
- 1:16:26Speaker 3: I think well and what happened the first kickoff where
- 1:16:28Speaker 3: josh cameron took a bit.
- 1:16:29Speaker 2: Yeah you've already seen you've already seen your kickoff team.
- 1:16:32Speaker 3: You saw the worst case scenario and.
- 1:16:33Speaker 2: There were good kickoffs all day there were several yeah
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: kickoffs so like.
- 1:16:36Speaker 5: You see the worst possible coverage too by the way
- 1:16:39Speaker 5: yeah There's.
- 1:16:40Speaker 2: Always something to improve on, Pete. But it's good to
- 1:16:42Speaker 2: do on a Victory Monday. We're going to take a break.
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: Coming back, we will talk more and sneak peek a
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: little bit to that second London game because the team's
- 1:16:50Speaker 2: staying over there and they're going to take on the Texans,
- 1:16:53Speaker 2: the first AFC South matchup of the year. This is
- 1:16:55Speaker 2: Jaguars Happy Hour brought to you by Mr. Chubby's Wings.
- 1:17:16Speaker 2: Welcome back into Jaguars happy hour. We're getting ready today
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: to talk a little bit about the second game in
- 1:17:22Speaker 2: London because the Jaguars are staying over there for the
- 1:17:24Speaker 2: third time in team history. They have this, excuse me,
- 1:17:29Speaker 2: the third time in team history, they have two games
- 1:17:31Speaker 2: in London back to back. First time they went, they
- 1:17:33Speaker 2: went two and O last time they went, they went
- 1:17:35Speaker 2: one and one. They're one and O so far. Pete,
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: Houston Texans have their first win of the season because
- 1:17:41Speaker 2: they played the Tennessee Titans. What are we going to
- 1:17:44Speaker 2: see from the Texans this week?
- 1:17:47Speaker 5: By the way, I loved how D'Amico Ryans took over
- 1:17:50Speaker 5: play calling on the defense just in time to play
- 1:17:53Speaker 5: the Tennessee Titans who can't score on anybody.
- 1:17:55Speaker 2: You got to give yourself a soft start. Nice little
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: ramp up. You don't come in hot.
- 1:18:01Speaker 5: Look, their defense had issues earlier in the year. They
- 1:18:04Speaker 5: were busting coverages. They were not playing as well in
- 1:18:08Speaker 5: a lot of spots. And they kind of regrouped. And
- 1:18:11Speaker 5: I think they're good. And now offensively, C.J. Stroud's been
- 1:18:15Speaker 5: good the last couple weeks. The problem is they don't
- 1:18:19Speaker 5: run the football at all. They're last in the league.
- 1:18:22Speaker 5: And so, again, it goes back to what I said
- 1:18:25Speaker 5: about the pass rush. This is going to be a
- 1:18:27Speaker 5: pass rush game because they're not going to run the football.
- 1:18:30Speaker 5: And you've got to be able to get him on
- 1:18:31Speaker 5: the ground. So for all the talk before the season
- 1:18:34Speaker 5: about it will all be on the offense– Early in
- 1:18:37Speaker 5: the season, it's been on the defense.
- 1:18:38Speaker 3: It sure has. Yeah, and Dave Montgomery, I know, got injured.
- 1:18:41Speaker 3: Not sure what the extent of that is. And Woody Marks, like,
- 1:18:45Speaker 3: he's he's he's fine but he he is not between
- 1:18:47Speaker 3: the tackles runner like he's he's.
- 1:18:49Speaker 5: Like he gives him more juice though he.
- 1:18:51Speaker 3: Does man but like he he's to me he's more
- 1:18:53Speaker 3: like the kind of the gadget guy kind of elvin
- 1:18:55Speaker 3: kamara right like Alan Kamara can run between the tackles,
- 1:18:58Speaker 3: but you want him in space getting the ball and everything. So, yeah,
- 1:19:02Speaker 3: this is going to come down to stopping Nico Collins,
- 1:19:04Speaker 3: I feel like, more than anybody. And Jalen Noel kind
- 1:19:06Speaker 3: of is making a name for himself a little bit.
- 1:19:08Speaker 5: Well, now they've got Marvin Harrison, too.
- 1:19:09Speaker 2: Absolutely. D'Amico Ryan's announcing the trade in his post-game press conference.
- 1:19:13Speaker 2: We knew Marvin Harrison was going somewhere.
- 1:19:15Speaker 3: Like it was National Signing Day. Since when did we
- 1:19:18Speaker 3: do that?
- 1:19:19Speaker 2: It also is interesting that they... A lot of the sources,
- 1:19:23Speaker 2: the agents let out the information that Marvin Harrison Jr.
- 1:19:26Speaker 2: is going to be traded, but no one said where
- 1:19:28Speaker 2: until after the game.
- 1:19:29Speaker 5: But it was always the rumblings and the league undertones
- 1:19:34Speaker 5: was that it was Houston. The question is this, and
- 1:19:37Speaker 5: nobody asked this question, I don't think. If they had lost,
- 1:19:40Speaker 5: would they have made the deal? Which essentially kind of
- 1:19:45Speaker 5: would have put them out of playoff competition. Would you
- 1:19:47Speaker 5: have made the deal? And I don't think they would have.
- 1:19:50Speaker 5: Some people think it was the Cardinals that were holding
- 1:19:52Speaker 5: up to see if anybody else would jump in.
- 1:19:53Speaker 3: I heard the Colts a little bit. I guess the
- 1:19:56Speaker 3: Colts were maybe interested, but I don't know.
- 1:20:00Speaker 4: I mean, the Chiefs supposedly weren't, and they need a
- 1:20:02Speaker 4: wide receiver.
- 1:20:03Speaker 5: Marvin Harrison doesn't run that well, but he played with C.J.
- 1:20:08Speaker 5: Stroud in college, so there's some comfort there. If you
- 1:20:12Speaker 5: have Nico Collins on one side and you roll coverage
- 1:20:15Speaker 5: to him, then he's going to get some one-on-ones. He's
- 1:20:17Speaker 5: going to be the number two, so he might be
- 1:20:19Speaker 5: able to fill a T Higgins kind of role for them.
- 1:20:22Speaker 5: If he could start to play like the guy that
- 1:20:24Speaker 5: was at Ohio state. So we'll see. I wouldn't have
- 1:20:26Speaker 5: given up a two for him. I might've given up
- 1:20:28Speaker 5: a four or five. That could be a four, something
- 1:20:32Speaker 5: along those lines, but they're desperate. I mean, this is
- 1:20:35Speaker 5: their chances of winning the division will be decided on Sunday.
- 1:20:38Speaker 5: I'm not saying their playoff chances will be decided and
- 1:20:42Speaker 5: nor will Jackson will be eliminated from the division. But
- 1:20:45Speaker 5: if Jackson wins that game, I mean, The Texans almost
- 1:20:50Speaker 5: have no chance to win that division, at least in
- 1:20:52Speaker 5: my mind. So I think that's, from that standpoint, it's
- 1:20:55Speaker 5: an important game for Houston.
- 1:20:56Speaker 2: Important game for the Jags as well because you can
- 1:20:59Speaker 2: knock out the Texans this early. We saw this kind
- 1:21:02Speaker 2: of last year when they played the Texans that second
- 1:21:05Speaker 2: time in Houston was an opportunity to essentially knock them
- 1:21:09Speaker 2: out and win the division that way. But they lost
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: that game. They went on a rip after it, but
- 1:21:14Speaker 2: so did the Texans.
- 1:21:16Speaker 5: Yeah, they couldn't get them on the ground.
- 1:21:18Speaker 4: Davis Mills, remember?
- 1:21:19Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:21:20Speaker 2: They do have a Davis Mills problem. Hopefully that's not
- 1:21:22Speaker 2: an issue in this matchup.
- 1:21:23Speaker 3: Well, yeah. I mean, I don't know. You can call
- 1:21:25Speaker 3: it getting him on the ground. To me, it was
- 1:21:26Speaker 3: more of a rush lane integrity, but it does go
- 1:21:29Speaker 3: hand in hand.
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: I was going to say, wasn't Davis Mills like the
- 1:21:30Speaker 2: biggest rusher against this team in the last couple years?
- 1:21:32Speaker 5: But didn't he throw for like 200 in the fourth
- 1:21:34Speaker 5: quarter of that game?
- 1:21:36Speaker 3: Yeah. There was some comeback numbers there. I just remember
- 1:21:38Speaker 3: the run to see him in the game. You remember
- 1:21:40Speaker 3: when he ran for the game.
- 1:21:41Speaker 2: Yeah. Josh Hines was out there in coverage.
- 1:21:44Speaker 3: Rush lane integrity.
- 1:21:45Speaker 5: But.
- 1:21:47Speaker 4: How do you beat this Texas defense?
- 1:21:50Speaker 5: You run at them. You run right at them.
- 1:21:53Speaker 4: They're not big.
- 1:21:55Speaker 5: But if they stop the run and they turn those
- 1:21:58Speaker 5: guys loose, that's trouble. Because Hunter and Anderson, and they're
- 1:22:02Speaker 5: rushing Anderson from the inside a lot, which if I'm
- 1:22:04Speaker 5: watching Jacksonville this past week, I'm rushing Anderson from the
- 1:22:08Speaker 5: inside a lot too because they have trouble with that.
- 1:22:10Speaker 5: So I think Jacksonville has to run the ball. What
- 1:22:16Speaker 5: were Tootin's carries yesterday? He didn't get enough of them.
- 1:22:19Speaker 2: Well, I'll give him credit for.
- 1:22:21Speaker 3: Yards after contact.
- 1:22:23Speaker 4: Beautiful.
- 1:22:25Speaker 5: That was one of the best running back games we've
- 1:22:27Speaker 5: seen for a guy who didn't have big numbers.
- 1:22:29Speaker 2: Yeah. Let's see. Basial Tootin, 22 carries, 72 yards.
- 1:22:35Speaker 4: See, the carries is good.
- 1:22:36Speaker 5: That's a good number.
- 1:22:37Speaker 4: Maybe a little high, a little bit.
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: And he wasn't even getting out of the backfield before
- 1:22:41Speaker 2: someone was getting him. So credit for any positive yards
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: he got.
- 1:22:46Speaker 5: And then he had the screen pass he caught.
- 1:22:51Speaker 2: Yes, he was involved. Three targets, two catches, 24 yards.
- 1:22:55Speaker 5: And it should have been three, but Trevor threw a
- 1:22:58Speaker 5: bad pass behind him. And if he catches that, he
- 1:23:01Speaker 5: might be able to get out a little bit because.
- 1:23:03Speaker 4: They set those screens up pretty well.
- 1:23:05Speaker 3: Look.
- 1:23:06Speaker 5: He's a really good– I thought he would be a
- 1:23:09Speaker 5: good player.
- 1:23:09Speaker 2: Yes, Pete. We know you're right.
- 1:23:12Speaker 5: I think he's tougher. No, I think he's tougher than
- 1:23:14Speaker 5: I thought he was as a runner.
- 1:23:17Speaker 3: No, I think– I mean, that's been one of the
- 1:23:19Speaker 3: biggest surprises of the season, I feel like, because we
- 1:23:21Speaker 3: all expected whatever the 4-2 or 4-3 that he ran. Mm-hmm.
- 1:23:25Speaker 2: He's fast.
- 1:23:26Speaker 3: Usually when you're that fast. And, like, if you look at–
- 1:23:28Speaker 3: and Gibbs has kind of built this a little bit too. Like,
- 1:23:30Speaker 3: you take for granted how physical these guys can be, right?
- 1:23:33Speaker 3: And Tootin's definitely been doing that. Like I said, the
- 1:23:36Speaker 3: yards after contact is absolutely ridiculous. So, yeah, I mean,
- 1:23:40Speaker 3: I do agree with you, Pete. You have to run
- 1:23:41Speaker 3: the football, right? Like, let's keep Trevor upright a little bit.
- 1:23:44Speaker 3: But let me ask you this, and I haven't watched
- 1:23:45Speaker 3: the last Texans game. Obviously, I saw the game against
- 1:23:48Speaker 3: the Cowboys and everything where CeeDee Lamb, I mean, did
- 1:23:51Speaker 3: whatever he wanted. Is it a scheme issue? Is it
- 1:23:55Speaker 3: a communication issue? Because they have people in the secondary
- 1:23:58Speaker 3: in Houston.
- 1:23:59Speaker 5: Well, Lassiter and Stingley were not playing well. And I
- 1:24:02Speaker 5: haven't watched the tape from yesterday, but they were not
- 1:24:05Speaker 5: playing well in the beginning of the season.
- 1:24:07Speaker 4: They were getting torched.
- 1:24:08Speaker 5: Blankenship, who they signed as a free agent, was having
- 1:24:10Speaker 5: problems in coverage. I think you combine that with the
- 1:24:15Speaker 5: fact that they're not getting interior pressure either. Plus, Al
- 1:24:19Speaker 5: Shayer and Henry Toa Toa were not on the field
- 1:24:23Speaker 5: a couple of those games. And those guys are a
- 1:24:24Speaker 5: big part of what they do in coverage. So I
- 1:24:27Speaker 5: think that was added all together, which is why they
- 1:24:29Speaker 5: had problems on defense.
- 1:24:31Speaker 4: Their offensive line stinks, by the way.
- 1:24:33Speaker 5: Remember all the moves they made?
- 1:24:34Speaker 2: Every year we talk about this. Every single year, it's
- 1:24:36Speaker 2: a bunch of new people. We're like, oh, okay. They're
- 1:24:39Speaker 2: trying to do something, and it's the same problem.
- 1:24:42Speaker 5: Their center is not good, Brown. Rutledge, the rookie guard,
- 1:24:47Speaker 5: hasn't played like I thought he would play, and I
- 1:24:49Speaker 5: think he should be their starting center. The left tackle, Ursari,
- 1:24:53Speaker 5: is okay. He's a second-year player. He's still kind of learning,
- 1:24:57Speaker 5: but he's okay. the right guard, whoever it is, if
- 1:25:01Speaker 5: it was Teller, he's better than Ingram. Ingram's been awful.
- 1:25:04Speaker 5: And he careered last year for them. I thought he
- 1:25:06Speaker 5: was terrible at Minnesota and played better for them. They
- 1:25:09Speaker 5: brought him back and he started. But Teller's been in
- 1:25:11Speaker 5: and out and he's been better. And then the right tackle,
- 1:25:15Speaker 5: he's 142 years old, you know, and he has issues.
- 1:25:19Speaker 5: You know what happens when an old guy plays, particularly
- 1:25:22Speaker 5: on the offensive line? He'll give you 40 good plays,
- 1:25:26Speaker 5: there's going to be 10 awful ones.
- 1:25:29Speaker 4: You know, you just see them.
- 1:25:30Speaker 3: Those hips start acting up a little bit.
- 1:25:32Speaker 2: You got to stretch a little bit more pregame. Yeah.
- 1:25:36Speaker 5: Or focus, you know, what am I doing? I'm thinking
- 1:25:39Speaker 5: about retirement or whatever. You know, I don't know what
- 1:25:41Speaker 5: it is, but you watch. He can play so good,
- 1:25:44Speaker 5: and then there'll be two or three plays, four or
- 1:25:45Speaker 5: five plays where you look at him.
- 1:25:46Speaker 4: And you go, what the heck is he doing?
- 1:25:48Speaker 2: Got to get locked in. Although every time we talk
- 1:25:51Speaker 2: about a battle line that we're facing, nothing ever comes
- 1:25:54Speaker 2: to fruition. So I don't know.
- 1:25:57Speaker 4: Maybe we shouldn't say that.
- 1:25:59Speaker 5: I think what happened last week helps refocus them for
- 1:26:03Speaker 5: this week.
- 1:26:05Speaker 2: Have to. Yes, that was an awesome, awesome finish. And
- 1:26:08Speaker 2: thank goodness because that was really cool and we had
- 1:26:10Speaker 2: some positives to talk about. But that was a frustrating
- 1:26:12Speaker 2: watch as a coach to have to look inward and
- 1:26:15Speaker 2: be like, there was a lot wrong there.
- 1:26:17Speaker 5: It's kind of like when they lost the Denver game
- 1:26:21Speaker 5: and didn't play that well, and then they came back
- 1:26:24Speaker 5: the next week and blew out New England.
- 1:26:26Speaker 2: They rebound well. Under Liam Cohen.
- 1:26:29Speaker 4: And I think this game will help them with that.
- 1:26:31Speaker 3: The question is, can you rebound after a win still?
- 1:26:36Speaker 3: And listen, you didn't lose the game. So you left
- 1:26:40Speaker 3: that field feeling good about yourselves. We got the Liam
- 1:26:42Speaker 3: Cohen fist pump. Shoulders just hanging by a thread right now,
- 1:26:46Speaker 3: I feel like, so early in the season. Hopefully Liam
- 1:26:47Speaker 3: Cohen can keep it together. But it is different when
- 1:26:51Speaker 3: you lose. And granted, it's the 24-hour rule, right? You
- 1:26:54Speaker 3: celebrate or you pout and you moan and then you...
- 1:26:58Speaker 3: You go on to the next game. I'm curious to
- 1:27:00Speaker 3: see what this team looks like now, though, because you
- 1:27:02Speaker 3: still won the game. Like, it wasn't pretty and everything.
- 1:27:04Speaker 3: You didn't play up to expectations, but you still won.
- 1:27:07Speaker 3: So is that demeanor from that Denver game, from the
- 1:27:11Speaker 3: Houston game last year, from the Bills game going into
- 1:27:13Speaker 3: the Browns game this season, like, is that demeanor still
- 1:27:16Speaker 3: going to be there?
- 1:27:18Speaker 2: You have to learn.
- 1:27:18Speaker 4: That'll be interesting.
- 1:27:19Speaker 5: This is another one of those trying weeks for a
- 1:27:21Speaker 5: young head coach.
- 1:27:22Speaker 4: That's what this is.
- 1:27:23Speaker 2: Yeah. Because also... I don't want to rag too much
- 1:27:26Speaker 2: on them. They did win, but we talked so much
- 1:27:28Speaker 2: about last year. They didn't come out ready to play
- 1:27:30Speaker 2: against the Rams and all that, and it was... Yes,
- 1:27:33Speaker 2: I know they had that first kickoff from Josh Cameron callback,
- 1:27:35Speaker 2: but they didn't really feel... It didn't feel good. And
- 1:27:39Speaker 2: I was like, he's going to have them ready this year.
- 1:27:40Speaker 2: He's going to have them ready, and that London game.
- 1:27:42Speaker 3: It could be a London problem. Well, get ready, because
- 1:27:44Speaker 3: you're going to be on the road a lot next year.
- 1:27:46Speaker 2: Yes, it won't be London necessarily that much.
- 1:27:48Speaker 4: This is a long, trying road stretch for them, too.
- 1:27:51Speaker 4: I mean, think about it.
- 1:27:53Speaker 5: They will not have played, what, For a month, five
- 1:27:56Speaker 5: weeks at home?
- 1:27:56Speaker 2: Yeah, they're not back until the 1st of November.
- 1:28:00Speaker 5: They played New England, then they went to Cincy, London,
- 1:28:04Speaker 5: London by home.
- 1:28:06Speaker 2: Home. Home against the courts.
- 1:28:08Speaker 4: Five weeks.
- 1:28:09Speaker 5: Five weeks.
- 1:28:10Speaker 3: What a treat.
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: They'll get right.
- 1:28:12Speaker 3: The gift that keeps on coming.
- 1:28:13Speaker 5: But, yeah, it's challenging, though. Five weeks on the road,
- 1:28:15Speaker 5: five weeks away from home is tough to handle.
- 1:28:18Speaker 6: Mm-hmm.
- 1:28:18Speaker 2: And they'll have some long road stretches back and forth
- 1:28:21Speaker 2: in the back end of season two. So we are
- 1:28:23Speaker 2: going to take our last break and then we will
- 1:28:25Speaker 2: talk about what's been going on around the NFL because
- 1:28:28Speaker 2: a lot always goes down on Sunday. We'll preview Monday
- 1:28:30Speaker 2: Night Football. So stay with us on Jaguars Happy Hour
- 1:28:33Speaker 2: presented by Mr. Toby's Wings.
- 1:28:47Speaker 5: Cam Little from 57 yards to win the ball game.
- 1:28:54Speaker 3: Snap is high.
- 1:28:55Speaker 5: Little kicks it up. The 57-yard field goal is.
- 1:29:00Speaker 5: Good!
- 1:29:02Speaker 3: Good!
- 1:29:04Speaker 6: Good!
- 1:29:05Speaker 5: They won it on a 57-yard field goal by Cam Little.
- 1:29:10Speaker 5: Can you believe that?
- 1:29:11Speaker 4: Can you believe that?
- 1:29:13Speaker 5: How good is that? The Jags win it!
- 1:29:16Speaker 4: The Jags win it!
- 1:29:18Speaker 5: Cam Little grilled it! How good is that?
- 1:29:23Speaker 2: None other than Frank Rangy with the call of the game.
- 1:29:26Speaker 3: My dude's going to be questionable for this week, huh?
- 1:29:28Speaker 3: That voice might be shocked.
- 1:29:30Speaker 2: Presented by coil fences he's in.
- 1:29:32Speaker 4: Paris i saw he's in paris.
- 1:29:33Speaker 2: Yeah he's having a tough day that was all presented
- 1:29:36Speaker 2: by coil fencing since 1927 we've been around the block
- 1:29:38Speaker 2: and fenced it too uh yes frank enjoys uh he
- 1:29:42Speaker 2: enjoys his job let's put it that way he was
- 1:29:45Speaker 2: quite emotional i think we all were a little emotional
- 1:29:47Speaker 2: especially at that point because what had we just watched.
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: Frank frangie with the upper neck injury it's gonna be
- 1:29:53Speaker 3: in that voice box i appreciate though I mean, again,
- 1:29:56Speaker 3: it would have been good from 60-something. Yeah.
- 1:29:58Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: And it figures. Like, you have your back of Long
- 1:30:01Speaker 2: Sapper in there, high snaps all day. He misses a PAT.
- 1:30:05Speaker 2: And then all the credit to Cam Little because he's
- 1:30:09Speaker 2: not always been as trustworthy in, you know, moments when
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: he could make a kick, but it was more mental,
- 1:30:16Speaker 2: and he came through there with flying colors.
- 1:30:19Speaker 4: You know what I noticed during that celebration?
- 1:30:21Speaker 2: What's that?
- 1:30:22Speaker 5: Walker little doesn't have a W on his Jersey and
- 1:30:25Speaker 5: cam doesn't have a C on his.
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: Oh, for Walker Walker. Cause there, are they ever on
- 1:30:32Speaker 2: the field at the same time? Are they supposed to
- 1:30:34Speaker 2: do that?
- 1:30:34Speaker 5: No, but don't you don't teams usually do that? If
- 1:30:36Speaker 5: you have the same last name, don't they put, I
- 1:30:38Speaker 5: don't know.
- 1:30:40Speaker 2: I thought, is it more like if they play on
- 1:30:41Speaker 2: the same side of the ball, like maybe cause they're
- 1:30:43Speaker 2: never out there together, I guess Walker little might be
- 1:30:45Speaker 2: on special teams. I'm not really sure.
- 1:30:46Speaker 3: I mean, do you see the thing where like, there's
- 1:30:48Speaker 3: like a million Joneses. I don't ever see like, I
- 1:30:51Speaker 3: don't know. That's a great question, Pete. I've never thought
- 1:30:53Speaker 3: about that, actually.
- 1:30:54Speaker 5: I've seen it where teams do that, where they differentiate
- 1:30:57Speaker 5: and put the initial, but you don't have to, I
- 1:30:59Speaker 5: don't think.
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know.
- 1:31:01Speaker 3: Interesting.
- 1:31:02Speaker 5: They don't look alike, that's for sure.
- 1:31:04Speaker 3: They do not. Do you think John Harbaugh is watching that? Maybe,
- 1:31:06Speaker 3: you know, not run with Cam Scadaboo and kick a
- 1:31:08Speaker 3: field goal, Pete? Just wondering.
- 1:31:10Speaker 5: No, I'm not. If you can tell me what yard
- 1:31:12Speaker 5: line he was on, I'll tell you.
- 1:31:14Speaker 3: Go ahead and tell him and go and argue with me.
- 1:31:16Speaker 2: It was a 24. 24-yard line, Pete.
- 1:31:20Speaker 5: He handed him off the ball at the 24?
- 1:31:21Speaker 2: Yeah, where he fumbled at.
- 1:31:23Speaker 3: That is correct.
- 1:31:24Speaker 5: Where did that play start?
- 1:31:28Speaker 2: It started on the 24, didn't he?
- 1:31:29Speaker 3: Oh, it did?
- 1:31:30Speaker 2: It was first and 10.
- 1:31:30Speaker 4: Are you sure? Because I don't think he was that close.
- 1:31:33Speaker 3: I think it was like a 40-yard run from Cam
- 1:31:35Speaker 3: Skadwood when he fumbled at the end.
- 1:31:37Speaker 5: It was actually a pretty good run when he fumbled,
- 1:31:39Speaker 5: I think.
- 1:31:43Speaker 2: They were on the 29, and then he went five
- 1:31:45Speaker 2: yards and fumbled it.
- 1:31:46Speaker 3: Or no.
- 1:31:48Speaker 2: Five-yard run. I didn't watch the play. It was third
- 1:31:50Speaker 2: and three. He went for a five-yard run. Two-minute warning.
- 1:31:55Speaker 2: Kim Scadaboo up the middle to the 24 for no gain,
- 1:31:57Speaker 2: any fumbles.
- 1:32:01Speaker 4: So he started that with 24.
- 1:32:03Speaker 5: I thought it was further out than that. So, yeah,
- 1:32:05Speaker 5: 41-yarder in that condition, you should not be running at 10.
- 1:32:09Speaker 4: I thought it was further out.
- 1:32:10Speaker 2: And there were some misses earlier in the game, as mentioned.
- 1:32:12Speaker 3: There were some misses. There was also some long makes, too, but....
- 1:32:16Speaker 5: What did the kid miss? The Giants kicker missed from
- 1:32:20Speaker 5: about 40-something earlier in that.
- 1:32:21Speaker 4: Game, didn't he?
- 1:32:22Speaker 2: He missed two, according to the box, play-by-play. He missed
- 1:32:26Speaker 2: one in the first quarter. That was a 50-yard field
- 1:32:33Speaker 2: goal he missed.
- 1:32:34Speaker 5: Okay, that's further.
- 1:32:36Speaker 2: He made one from 51.
- 1:32:38Speaker 3: Interesting.
- 1:32:41Speaker 4: And then he missed some shorter ones.
- 1:32:42Speaker 2: He missed. From 57. Oh.
- 1:32:47Speaker 3: And then he made another one, Kai?
- 1:32:50Speaker 2: And then he made one from 56.
- 1:32:52Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:32:53Speaker 3: I'm going to die on this all day, Pete.
- 1:32:56Speaker 5: I didn't think he was. I thought it was further
- 1:32:58Speaker 5: out than that.
- 1:32:59Speaker 2: And then he missed one earlier in overtime from 46.
- 1:33:03Speaker 3: So maybe the win. There you go.
- 1:33:07Speaker 4: That's a lot of opportunities.
- 1:33:08Speaker 5: That's why.
- 1:33:11Speaker 4: And that one he missed, he yanked.
- 1:33:12Speaker 5: It to the left.
- 1:33:13Speaker 2: Yeah, a couple of these were wide left.
- 1:33:16Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:33:17Speaker 5: So you could understand. Look, me personally, I'm with you
- 1:33:20Speaker 5: usually in that situation.
- 1:33:21Speaker 4: Get on with the kick.
- 1:33:22Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:33:23Speaker 5: But I think the conditions might have had– because that
- 1:33:26Speaker 5: thing was– I think it was the leftovers from that hurricane,
- 1:33:29Speaker 5: if I'm not mistaken.
- 1:33:30Speaker 2: It was, and they have actual grass in D.C., right?
- 1:33:34Speaker 2: So it wasn't the– that kind of weather and the
- 1:33:36Speaker 2: turf in Giant Stadium would have.
- 1:33:38Speaker 5: Been– Which is why if Dan Quinn was actually trying
- 1:33:42Speaker 5: to get more yards, then maybe you could– nah. No,
- 1:33:45Speaker 5: you can't.
- 1:33:46Speaker 2: Still no excusing it.
- 1:33:47Speaker 3: I just hope that Pete defends me one day like
- 1:33:49Speaker 3: he defends the John Harbaugh decision.
- 1:33:52Speaker 2: No, I would kill– I'll kill any– He tried to
- 1:33:54Speaker 2: defend the refs last week too. Okay.
- 1:33:57Speaker 3: Well, quick, quick, quick.
- 1:33:58Speaker 5: I just didn't think they were that close, so I
- 1:34:00Speaker 5: might have been wrong on that.
- 1:34:02Speaker 3: Quick, quick, did you defend the flying football coming in
- 1:34:03Speaker 3: from Monday Night Football? Kai, could you defend that quick?
- 1:34:06Speaker 2: We'll see if– we'll give you a chance on it. Pete,
- 1:34:08Speaker 2: what else? Obviously, those are the two most dramatic games
- 1:34:11Speaker 2: from yesterday. What else stuck out in your mind?
- 1:34:14Speaker 5: Well, I think the 49ers sent a message to everybody
- 1:34:17Speaker 5: in the league that they're for real. You go to
- 1:34:19Speaker 5: Seattle and you win. And they turned the ball. There
- 1:34:23Speaker 5: were seven turnovers in that game. It was sloppy.
- 1:34:26Speaker 4: But they turned over Seattle. How about this stat? I
- 1:34:28Speaker 4: saw this the other day.
- 1:34:30Speaker 5: In the three games that Sam Darnold has been back,
- 1:34:33Speaker 5: He's thrown five interceptions.
- 1:34:34Speaker 2: Not great. Well, you saw when they won with their
- 1:34:36Speaker 2: backup that you knew it was a system situation.
- 1:34:39Speaker 5: So is he back to being Sam Darnold? Was that
- 1:34:43Speaker 5: like a wonder year last year?
- 1:34:44Speaker 2: Well, he's got a Super Bowl ring now, so he
- 1:34:46Speaker 2: can do whatever he wants, right?
- 1:34:47Speaker 4: Well, so did Nick Foles, and that didn't mean anything.
- 1:34:49Speaker 2: It's still on the resume, I'm sure. All right, real quick. Tonight,
- 1:34:53Speaker 2: we've got a battle between the two most recent MVPs.
- 1:34:58Speaker 2: Matt Stafford, Josh Allen, and the Bills, they're heading to L.A.
- 1:35:01Speaker 2: trying to get right after that loss to the Patriots.
- 1:35:04Speaker 5: Austin's not getting his football.
- 1:35:06Speaker 2: Bills, Rams, who you got? No football for you today.
- 1:35:10Speaker 5: Oh, there's no football?
- 1:35:11Speaker 2: Dang, man.
- 1:35:12Speaker 5: There it is.
- 1:35:13Speaker 3: There it is.
- 1:35:15Speaker 4: That came more at me, I think.
- 1:35:16Speaker 3: Drag the foot, drag the foot. Peter, what are you taking?
- 1:35:20Speaker 5: I think it's going to be really close and really
- 1:35:22Speaker 5: high scoring. I think the Rams will win it late.
- 1:35:24Speaker 5: I think the Rams will win a really tight one.
- 1:35:27Speaker 3: I was going to take it up one-on-one with you
- 1:35:29Speaker 3: because I lost last week with the Saints, but I'm
- 1:35:31Speaker 3: taking the Rams, too, at home.
- 1:35:32Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:35:33Speaker 3: I don't believe Jim Leonard quite yet.
- 1:35:34Speaker 2: Our record so far, Pete's 3-1, Austin 1-3. We've got
- 1:35:37Speaker 2: to get some differentiation going forward next week, but I
- 1:35:41Speaker 2: won't get on you this time. We made it through
- 1:35:43Speaker 2: a crazy game in London. We've got another one coming up.
- 1:35:46Speaker 2: Join us next week back here on Jaguars Happy Hour.
