Jags A.M. Podcast Ep. 173 | Previewing Jaguars Prime Time Matchup in Week 5 · The Jacksonville Jaguars Official Podcast Network

• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Welcome to jags AM on Wednesday, October First, I'm kind
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: of Annie Stephens, fran Sexton, John Osier with me this morning.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: We got a little bit of an extended week as
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: we get prepared for Monday Night football. The Chiefs are
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: coming to town. It is going to be one to remember.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Let's get into our big Things today, brought to you
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: by GEAJ Government Empoyees Health Association. Big Thing number one,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: give and take. We've told you a ton about the
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: takeaways thirteen so far this season through four weeks. But
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: the Chiefs they don't give it away that often. Only
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: one interception for Patrick Mahomes so far. So Brian, something's
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: got to give on Monday Night football. Which one's it
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: going to be?
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Well, hopefully you can force a couple of fumbles because
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes is playing really sharp. If you saw any
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: of that Ravens game the other night, you realize even
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: without their all star cast, right, I mean, they are
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: he sing together an offensive lineup right now until some
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: of their guys get back, like Rashie Rice.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: Who's on a six game suspension.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: Mahomes is just magical with the ball in his hands
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: and he puts the ball in places where only his
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: guys get it. So you'd like to see Eric Arms dead,
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Dennis guard Deck, who else, Foyer, Luakan punch the ball
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: out on Pacheco or some of these receivers when they
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: get the ball in their hands. Because Mahomes doesn't look
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: like he's interception prone at this point of the season.
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: No, he's not prone, but you know, trends are made
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: to be broken. And also this Jaguars defense and the
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: team is eventually gonna have to win without getting three
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: or four takeaways. I think if you get one before
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: it's a fumble, and then you get him into a
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: situation late in the game where they're behind, then like
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: any quarterback, you start forcing throws. That could be the formula.
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: I think they need to get one off of him
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: and turn that into a field position, momentum type situation
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: and then just play the same kind of defense they've
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: been doing because they've been a good defense even without
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: the takeaways.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: It's got a big thing Number two, which is gonna
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: be feeling the pressure. Trayvon Walker had a risk injury
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: against the forty nine ers. We're still not certain on
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: his availability going forward, although I'm gonna assume if he
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: can play, he will play John. But if Trayvon's not
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: out there, what's this going to look like for the
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: pass rush?
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: Well, it's the good news, is they still you know,
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: I love Trayvon Walker. Right now, Josh Heines Allen is
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: their best defensive player. He's been incredibly disruptive. His sack
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: number a half, but that doesn't reflect how disruptive he's been.
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: They have to get impact from Eric Armstead if.
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: Trayvon's not in the game, they have to get a
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: little bit from the other side. And then Josh Heines Allen.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: You know, to me, this is his game defensively. And
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: now what I mean by this is he always talks
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: every off season he wants to be All Pro. He
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: wants to be defensive player of the Year. Monday Night
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: football against Kansas City D.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: Watch Spoot's gonna be important.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: You're gonna need that veteran presence to keep the edge
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: because if you're getting from Devon Hamilton and Eric Armstead
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: like you did last week, and Mason Smith like you've
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: seen in his limited time on the field, then Mahomes
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: is going to have to get outside the pocket. Now,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: if you saw their game at all against the Ravens
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: or the Giants. He is so nimble, so able to
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: work the sideline to his advantage. So the advantage that
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: you need is a veteran guy, and some moodably become
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: very important towards trying to keep Mahomes in the pocket.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Sure, not necessarily interception prone, but you can get some
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: incompletions if you can force them out. So our final
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: big thing today is going to be primetime because it's
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Monday night football coming to town, Bryan. It's their only
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: timetime matchup of the year. We're not counting on because
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: that's a little early, but to have a primetime matchup
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: against a team like the Chiefs is this huge opportunity.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: And it sounds like the place is going to be full.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: There were a lot of seats a few weeks ago
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: and there aren't.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: That's what three and one does, That's what a signature
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: victory over the San Francisco forty nine ers does, and
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: that's also what Patrick.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Mahomes and the Chiefs do.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: If you saw again their game against the Giants, they
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: put a lot of red in that giant stadium. So
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: it's going to be a raucous crowd They're used to it.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Kai they play six primetime games this year. They are
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: absolutely non plussed by the idea of having to play
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: at eight o'clock at night on a full stage, you know,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: with a stadium that's rooting against them. So for the Jaguars,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: they've got to harness that energy and use it to
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: their advantage to play really good, smart football. I don't
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: have any doubt, John, that they'll come out energized and
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: ready because as KAI metric, it's their only primetime opportunity.
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they'll be plussed.
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: I mean, if the Chiefs are non plussed, the Jags
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: will be plussed. Look, I don't know if the schedule
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: makers anticipated this, but you know, you put Kansas City
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: i'm a football against the Jags, I think probably in
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: March or May when they're making this. Oh, it's a
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: good chance to get Mahomes on. The Jags are a
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: big story and you know, and it's a big opportunity
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: for them nationally. I don't think many people thought that
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: the Jags would go into this game with the better record,
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: with a chance to put Kansas City, you know, in
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: the race for home field, a chance to put them
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: to you know, and I'm saying that sort of, you know, smiling.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: The Jags are good and this is a chance to
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: make a statement and to start getting positioning on teams
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: because I think this team has a chance to get
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: into that deep conversation in December.
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: So big game all around.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: That you're saying it at all is the story though, John,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, we wouldn't have thought even tongue in cheek
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: mentioned that you'd be in the race for that first
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: year with Liam building this thing up. But this is
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: a golden opportunity for the Jaguars to get one of
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: those important games when it comes to tiebreakers and things
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: like that for a wild card.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: Or even to win the division. So this is a
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: really important game in.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Week five playoff implications. Dare I say, am I thinking
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: too far ahead? Anyway?
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: Hopefully?
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Anyway, we're gonna talk more about Monday Night football, what
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: we've got coming up the rest of the week here
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: on jackson Brought to you by Jet Holmelungs. Twelve years,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Dreamfindersmes have been proud to call themselves the official homebuilder
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Visit dreamfindersomes dot com for all
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: of the available and go Jags. This oh, this, oh,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: welcome back in your jag zam this morning brought to
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: you by Jet Home Loans. Here in the Hyundai studios,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: we are getting ready for Monday night football, which always
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: feels a little bit different, and it's against a great
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: team in the Kansas City Chiefs. So when I was
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: looking at the schedule, I originally thought this first full
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: slate was probably the toughest section. But again, when you
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: start at the beginning of the season, you never know
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: what injuries are going to be like or what teams
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: are going to be like. Are we amidst the toughest
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: part of the schedule right now or is it maybe
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: a little bit later we got some of those far
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: away West Coast trips.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: I think it's right now.
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: We're heading into it.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Kansas City with Mahomes, no matter what
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: the record is, it's a tough one. But then you've
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: got Seattle at three and one, who might be the
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: best team in the in the West, which is the
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: only division right now in the NFC that has all
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: every team at five hundred or better. And then you
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: get the Rams and we know what they are with
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Stafford and what they're capable of doing.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: You're both three and one right now.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: So I mean these three games leading up to the
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: bye week, they don't make you or break you. They
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: could make you if you if you find a way
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: to navigate them successfully. But it's one of those situations
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: where tough, tough, tough.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and look, don't discount what they've just done, meaning
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: get through the Texans. I don't care if the Texans
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: are one and whatever. This was a team that you
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: needed to get through. And they beat an unbeaten forty
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: nine ers team. So sometimes there's a tendency once you
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: beat a team. Oh they beat that team. It wasn't
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: very hard. Going out to San Francisco was big. But
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: I agree with Brian. When the schedule came out, I
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: thought the overlooked part by some people was case and
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: then getting Seattle in the Rams. You know, nobody on
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: the East Coast thinks about Seattle, but they're always competitive,
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: they're always good. Most people couldn't name a player, but
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: they always start stacking them up and so they'll be tough.
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: And then the Rams. You know what a game in London.
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: But yes, I think the next three you're three one
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: now you get out of that, dude, dare I say,
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: you know, if you can navigate that, and then you
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: get to the buy after that, you do get a
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: part of the schedule where objectively you would look at
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: games and start saying, yeah, they should start taking those off.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: That's not how they're thinking, but that's how the schedule
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: looks from an etective point.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Well, and they've defended the home turf already.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: They're two and zero, right, and they've got Kansas City
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: Seattle here in Jacksonville and then a game that they
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: feels like a home game at Wembley Stadium in London.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: So tough part of the schedule plays to your advantage
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: because you're unfamiliar turf.
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: You get two of the next three.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: Oh, you're feeling you're in the London and they're thinking
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: three and oh, and you know, I hope and all that.
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: But you get two of the next three and go
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: in five and two. Boy howdy, Yeah, that'll be fun.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Plus we should point out the end of the schedule
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: a lot of division games. It's back end of this
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: backload of this year. Titans, the Cults twice and the
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Titans twice are all in.
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: The last five or six.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so for the last six so a lot of
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: ground to be gained there as well later in the season.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: So we talked a little bit yesterday about some defensive
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: players that were here last year, offensive players too that
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: maybe didn't have their best season, and now we're seeing
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: a bit of a resurgence. Devin Lloyd certainly one of those.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Eric Armstead as well. When you're looking at improvement compared
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: to what they were last year, who's most improved to
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: you is a Devin Lloyd, Armstead or somebody else?
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: I'd say Devin Lloyd is not close. I mean it's
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: it's you know, it's not a knock on Armstead. I
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: I think he's playing well. Devin Lloyd is playing like uh,
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: the cliche and the storyline has been who can unlock
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: Devin Lloyd? And I think for most people, uh probably
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: myself included. Uh, after it didn't happen, I was still
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: saying if I didn't really believe it was gonna happen,
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: I don't think anybody did.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: Uh. But he's playing. It's not just the interceptions.
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: And he's and he has three he's everywhere.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: He's playing at a high, high level. And uh, your
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: credit to him. I think, and everybody on this couch
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: has talked to Devin Lloyd. What a nice young man
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: who works at it, who wants to be good, and
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: it's fun to see him enjoying this On Sunday.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: He was the equal of Fred Warner, right, who many
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: people think is the best linebacker in the NFC, if
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: not the entire NFL. So it speaks volumes. Just for
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: sake of argument, I want to I want to give
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: you another name.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: How about do it?
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: Who didn't He didn't play a whole lot last year
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: because of injury. He's playing at the highest level he's
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: ever played at interceptions, tackles. He's a guy who is
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: making plays. And I think all of us had some
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: confidence in him. But did you think he would play
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: at this level? The safeties were so bad last year
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: that the standards was low. I get it, But he
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: is really playing good football.
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: Run Yeah. I think maybe I'm channeling my inner Dewey,
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: which we all should do of from time to time.
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: I think he would tell you he's playing at his
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: level and he's getting the opportunity.
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: To do it. But I agree with you. What a.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: Cool thing to see and uh and what a year
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: he's having. But if you walk back there, if you're
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: up back down there right now, and ask Andrew Andrew
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: Winger if he's that much better than he has been,
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: because they know I've been. I mean, it's all along.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: I needed my shot and I kind of think maybe
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: he's right on that. But did you think let's channel
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: our But did you think it would be this good?
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: I think that's that he can think it right, he's
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: supposed to think it. I thought he'd be solid and
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: maybe he didn't think he'd be creating it. Yeah, this
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: may turnovers. I trusted and do it because I think
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: we all should trust in doing and.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Do we we trust? It's not the new saying should
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: we start a new one?
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: Coming up?

  Speaker 1: Do you remember this? It's the Microsoft office?
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: No, the OG.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Did you have a You must have been a dial
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: up guy, now that I'm thinking about this, well, when
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: the Internet and the interwebs came.
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: Out, the InterWave came out, I I was. I was
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: an America Online dial up guy at compu Serve too.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: I had AOL though, yeah, didn't.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: We all let's talk a little bit AFC South because
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: we want to keep track on everybody in the division
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: and see what they're up to. The Texans got their
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: first win of the year. Titans fall two oh and
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: f war. That's a tough situation in Nashville right now.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Don't mean to laugh, but I think even cam Ward
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: said it out loud. I'm not gonna repeat him exactly,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: but he said they're not good right now, and the
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: situation doesn't look like there's much upside.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: No a rookie quarterback, a coach who's under fire right now.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Things do not look good there. And I don't think
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: that they expected them to look great. They you know,
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: they're rebuilding. The Texans, however, needed to win je On
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: in the worst way. I think they've got a couple
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: of fundamental problems that they're gonna have a hard time,
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: you know, looking like they did last year. They don't
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: have the big running back, Joe Mixon, and that puts
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: a lot of pressure on the quarterback and that offensive
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: on you know, they traded Cam Robinson this week to
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: the Cleveland Brown, so they're going with that rookie who
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: Josh Heinz Allen turned inside out and upside down. It
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: looks like the Texans are going to struggle for most
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: of this season as well.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not ready to think they're going to struggle
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: in terms of wins yet, because it does feel I mean,
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: and they're proud France. I expect them to get a
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: run and get back into it. I'm kind of with you, Brian.
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: I wonder if the way their offensive line, the offense
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: is playing, if they can turn that run. You know,
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: first they have to make a run to get back
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: into it, and then can you sustain that. I think
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: that will be difficult for them, but you know, don't
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: count them out until they're out. But they do seem
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: to have some structural issues they're gonna be hard to
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: fix in.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: The offensive line.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: And you know, they bring in Nick Chubb, but who again,
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: is a former AFC North running back who plays with power,
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: but he doesn't. Joe Mixon came in there and gave
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: that quarterback a big lift last year. And we don't
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: know anything about where Joe Mixon is in terms of
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: his rehab. So I think that's a big question mark
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: for them. Their defense is good enough. Yeah, if they
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: stay healthy on that side of the ball, they can
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: make some noise. But I do think that that lack
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: of running game and an offensive line that hasn't gotten
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: a whole lot better from where it was last year
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: is going to be a nagging problem for them.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: They feel like they're going to have to win all
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: games or most games the way the Jaguars have won
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: last two, meaning it's gonna be scratch. You're not gonna
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: play Tennessee every week at Tennessee struggling. So I think
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: that will be their storyline in Tennessee. Look, we've been
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: through it. Sometimes when you draft that rookie quarterback and
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: you play them immediately the early part of the season,
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: you get this sort of thing, and you know, I
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: don't you always say you wouldn't wish that in your
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: worst enemy.
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: I think a lot of.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: Fans were probably not franchise.
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: They don't feel so white as a bad Yeah, but
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: you know, again, that doesn't last forever.
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: And usually teams that start off like this they do
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: hit a run second half of the season when the
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: Jaguars get them.
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: So you know, they're.
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: Probably gonna make the playoffs, but it'll be interesting to
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: see how they develop from here.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Let's look to the Colts. They lost their first game,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: so now the Colts, they're still first place in the division,
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: I think because of tiebreakers, but three and one, as
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: well as the Jaguars losing to the Rams, who is
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: another team we're gonna face off against. But coming back
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: down to earth a little bit for Daniel Jones, but
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: they're talented and I feel like what we've seen from
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, is it something that will progress throughout the
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: season or is it a little bit People haven't seen
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: him in a while and there's a lot of weapons
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: in Indianapolis. Like you know, when the film gets out,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: is it gonna be a little bit different going forward?
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: I think it'll be different.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: Anytime you have a quarterback with a hot start with
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: no film on him.
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: It's like in baseball.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: Once you get through that, you know the first part
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: of the lineup, people learn how to pitch you. The
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: same thing with quarterbacks, so there's an element of that.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: I think he's good enough and experienced enough to come
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: out of that.
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: I don't expect him.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: To be elite, top four guy, but it does feel
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: they're three and one and he's playing solidly. If they
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: get solid quarterback play, I'd be surprised if the Jaguars
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: and Colts aren't playing meaningful games in December.
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: Those two games could be fun.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: But yeah, without a doubt, as long as Jonathan Taylor
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: stays healthy, he has a chance to play consistent football,
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: and there are some weapons there. Now, give them credit.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: They should have won this ball game. If Mitchell the
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: young receiver does it flocked the ball before he crosses
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: the goal line, maybe they win that game. In LA
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: And you're talking about a four and oh team that's
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: at you at the top of everyone's list as not
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: just a surprise, but a really good team. The Colts
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: have had some talent. The inability to have consistent quarterback
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: play has killed them. I think Jonathan Taylor's second best
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: running back in the league, maybe the third.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: He is really freaking good.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: And if he stays healthy and can avoid the ankle
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: foot injury, Daniel Jones is not going to have to
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: do everything. And I think if you talk to people
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: who know Daniel Jones, that's the key. If you need
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: him to do everything, you're you're gonna be disappointed.
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, attentioning both these teams, it could and probably should
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: be four and oh, four and oh on top of
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: the AFC South when everybody thought.
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: It was a weak division. So beware of preseason story odds.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Nice place to be and definitely a team to keep
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: an eye on. In the Colts say, well, let's we'll
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: tell you what's coming up. The rest of the week
• 17:56

  Speaker 6: Parker backs up, fields it at the fifteen yard line.
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: Made a man missed twenty five year thirty yard line,
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: that's good or turn of Parker water still at three
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: fifty forty thirty twenty fifteen to ten bute touchdown. Parker
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: Washington just brought it all the way back.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Washington miked up against the forty nine ers and he
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: got a kick return for a touchdown.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: A little celebration sounded like, you said, Sparker Washington, like
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: he's a spark.
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: The spark plug he was on teaday. Well, credit to Parker,
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: but how well was that blocked? By? What I mean?
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: I mean, you know, usually on punt returns this is
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: historically you know, uh, the parnetary gets a lot of credit.
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: But the really good special teams units are the ones
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: that can block on punt and has some four core
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: guys who can block.
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: And it looked like they blocked that one great.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: And God give him credit.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: He had a tough day against the Texans with a
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: couple of drops and he was under scrutiny all week.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: People were pointing that out and to rebound with a
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: play like that when the team needed it most.
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: Congratulations to Parker.
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: Came back big. We love it.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: A little bit of a different week. Players are off
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: today is Wednesday, so we're pushing things out a little bit.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: And you anybody you guys are talking to this week,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: you're looking forward to speaking with.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: I'm going to talk to the linebackers coach about Devin
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Lloyd this week. Absolutely, I think he'll have a lot
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: of insight because when you see sounds of the game
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: and a lot of the behind the scenes stuff and
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: you see the interaction.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: Lloyd is a cerebral player.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: People didn't give him credit for that, but he is
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: always seeking what did I do right?
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: What did I do wrong? I can't wait to talk
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: to the linebacker's coach.
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm talking to Travis DTN and the ozone podcast.
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: I've talked to a new after.
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: Practice and look, anybody in the community who's met Travis.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: You guys both know Travis.
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: It has been fun to see him grow over three
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: or four years as a player. As a person, I've
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: always liked his perspective and his professionalism and something forward
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: to talking to him.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: He always has a smile on his face.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Even if he really doesn't want to talk to you
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: in the locker room, he'll smile and stand there and
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: do it.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: He's a true pro, he's absolute pro.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: I am talking to John's favorite person, dewey or off
• 20:24
